Build an Earth-Sheltered, Energy-Efficient Greenhouse
Triple the length of your growing season with this simple, energy-efficient greenhouse design.
To water or weed the plants, I had to open the pit and expose them to the air. Most plants will not grow in temperatures lower than 40 degrees; so, on a 30-degree day I was destroying the cozy, sun-baked 50- or 60-degree environment, shocking the small starts.

Are you experiencing the need for support or help with the difficulties in your life? Do you have a sense of things not being right for you at this time? You may be in crisis, or have a feelings of deep unhappiness or anxiety, or you may have a specific issue that you feel you need to talk about.
Do you feel that you have to cope alone because those around you don't really understand you or are part of your particular problem? Psychotherapy can give you someone to talk to and someone who will listen to you without judgement and support and help restore your confidence and your sense of well being.
As well as a practising psychotherapist, I have worked in a variety of organisations and am aware of the stress that anyone of us can face, in our jobs or through unemployment and how this can impact on on our lives and on our relationships.
I offer a safe confidential space to explore your feelings and particular issues.
Sometimes a few sessions may help you to make sense of your life or perhaps a longer term approach may be more suitable. We will always work at your pace.
Why Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy can help you make sense of what is happening and can facilitate changes helping you to feel more at ease and in control of your life.
Psychotherapy tends to be longer term, in-depth work than counselling although the issues are often the same.
I am a qualified Core Process Psychotherapist trained at the Karuna Institute in Devon. I am accredited by the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and adhere to their ethical standards.
I have a private practice and currently work at The Natural Therapy Centre in Redruth on Tuesdays and Thursdays and I work at the Falmouth Natural Health Practice on Wednesdays
I have worked as both a therapist and a group facilitator for West Cornwall Women's Aid. Formerly I worked in the field of Supported Housing as well as working as a counsellor for RELATE and as a healer for the National Federation of Spiritual Healers -NFSH.
Member organisations
Accredited register membership
I offer a free initial appointment as an introduction to the work we might do together.
During this session we can explore together your particular needs. If we decide to work together we will arrange further appointments.
Each session lasts an hour and costs: £40.00
Whatever you choose to tell me will be treated as confidential
What is Core Process Psychotherapy?
Core Process Psychotherapy is a mindfulness-based approach drawing on both Western psychological theory and mindfulness training.
We each shape our personality into a unique form which we identify as 'me' through which we relate to the outer world.
This therapeutic approach helps you explore how you experience yourself and others in the present moment.
Your experiences in life, even from your first moments, can move you away from an inner sense of wellbeing.
By touching in with greater awareness to your inner sense of wellbeing, your true potential will begin to reveal itself.

Emma ends up having a bad dream that shakes her a bit.
Emma had gone to sleep like every night. No problems what-so-ever. All she ever needed was a cup of her mother's hot chocolate with cinnamon and that would send her right off. She got ready for bed, got nestled under the covers, and closed her eyes as she began to drift into slumber.
Usually she didn't dream. It wasn't a normal occurrence for her but when she did dream it wasn't nice ones or ones that were that she couldn't remember. But this dream was different. This dream hit her in the core, something she was fearing since the day she finally found her parents. This dream was one of her deepest, darkest fears.
She was in a shop with her mom and dad, Henry was over in the candy section, casually perusing all the selections. When she looked around all she saw was Snow with Henry. She frowned in confusion, where was her father? And at that very moment in walked in David. Her sigh escaping loud and fast as she walked over to him.
"Hey, where did you go?"
David looked at her confusion "What do you mean? Who are you?"
Emma frowned as Snow and Henry slowly walked over "What do you mean, who am I? It's me, Emma."
"I'm sorry, I don't know who you are."
Snow stepped forward a bit "David?"
David frowned slightly "Mary Margaret. I didn't know you were here, how are you?"
Emma couldn't believe what she was hearing "David, where were you?"
"I just came back from a walk out of the town. Why?"
She could hear Snow starting to break down as tears started to pierce her own eyes "David...you went over the town line?"
"You really don't remember me?"
"No I don't. I'm sorry."
She couldn't help but start to cry "Bu...but you have to remember me. I spent so much time looking for you. Please."
"Look, I'm sorry I don't remember you but there's nothing I can do."
As he turned to leave Emma couldn't help but yell out in a cry for one last attempt "DADDY!"
David froze. He heard her scream 'Daddy' and something in him made him stop. He felt a strange feeling like he had been waiting to hear that for so long. And it came from the one person he had been needing to hear it from. He slowly turned to see the blond woman, crying. His Emma. His baby girl, Emma. He swiftly moved forward and just grabbed her into his arms. She clung to him automatically, crying profusely. He was trying to calm her down by rubbing her back and making shushing noises while he gently swayed from side to side.
"I am so sorry I forgot you. My beautiful little girl. I am so sorry."
And it was in that moment she awoke with a scream that sounded like she was being murdered and she heard herself yelling for one person in particular that she so desperately wanted to see.
"DAD! DAD! DADDY!" She kept yelling over and over as she cried
David had been sleeping soundly, Snow was curled up next to him, her arm slung around his waist with her head on his shoulder. His own arm wrapped around her shoulders and the other holding her hand on his waist. This was the best way for them to fall asleep since they both were having the dreams of the burning room. The best way to feel safe.
It was around 1 am when he heard the screams in his sleep 'DAD! DAD! DADDY!' it kept being repeated. And the voice screaming it started to become more clear and his eyes shot open instantly as he recognized it as Emma's. Emma was screaming out for him and her screams scared him. It sounded it as if she was so frightened.
He shot up immediately causing Snow to wake up in the process.
"It's Emma. Something's wrong."
Snow got the look of fear as she got out of the bed with him and followed him up the stairs. He kept hearing the screams from down the hall as he rushed down them. Thankful that Henry was sleeping over at Granny's for the night because he wanted to hear all the stories she had. His heart was beating faster than ever. His little girl was crying out of him but, the words weren't even registering, all he kept hearing was his daughter cry out in pain, in fear.
It felt like forever before he reached her room and not even checking to see if it was unlocked. David flew in to her room faster than anything as he saw Emma crying and gasping for air as she was trying to grab hold of him from her bed. He swiftly moved to her side as she just grabbed onto him tightly, crying and still gasping for air. Snow had walked to the other side of the bed, her brow furrowed in confusion as she looked upon the scene. David gave her the same look.
Emma was still crying "Please don't forget me, Daddy. Please"
David almost lost his mind upon hearing her call him Daddy but he wrapped his arms around her never wanting to let her go. His hand rubbing her back as he slowly moved from side to side. Casting a glace over at Snow who was definitely tearing up at the scene before her.
"Don't worry, Emma. I'm here. Always and forever. Daddy's here."
They stayed like that for about an hour until Emma had calmed down and he had basically rocked his 28 year old daughter to sleep. Her arms limp at his side and her head resting on his shoulder as he continued rocking, feeling her sleep regulate and hearing her slightly snore.
He slowly placed her on her back in her bed, gently placing her head on her pillow as he pulled up the covers and blankets to her shoulders and tucking her in. He gently moved her hair from her forehead and gave her a kiss.
"Goodnight, Emma. I love you."
And with that he took his wife's hand and walked out of their daughter's room.

Police in Kitale have arrested three suspects including a house help and a manhunt launched for another suspect on the run.
Kitale OCPD Jackson Mwenga was quoted by a section of the media saying:
"We must get to the bottom of this matter to ascertain who has behind this act and what the motive behind it was"
All along the family thought she had been kidnapped but blood stains in her house pointed at a possible murder, reported the Nairobi News.
A foul smell emanating from the chicken coop led the family to the badly decomposing body that was covered with chicken feed. She had wire strangle marks suggesting that she was strangled.
The second wife of Mungatana and anti jigger campaigner said that she became troubled when she could not reach her mother on phone. She told the Nairobi News:
"I tried calling her phone on Thursday and Friday and I could not reach her. I later came to learn that she had gone missing"

First just a quick note to confirm that our illustrious founder and Dear Leader, Bill Bonner, will be joining us for drinks and chat on Tuesday, December 9th at the BLVD Bar, located at 6 Queensbridge Square on Southbank in Melbourne from 6:30 p.m. on. Sorry we couldn't make it to Sydney, Perth, Adelaide, Cairns, Darwin or Hobart this year. Maybe next year.
Remember this is nothing fancy. Bill is preparing for world depression by ruthlessly cutting back on discretionary expenses. As far as we know, he is still letting people buy him drinks. We're also trying to scrounge up a few copies of I.O.U.S.A. from our mates in the States to raffle off.
As for the rest of the affair, canapés will be on offer. But you're on your own to fill up your stomach after that. Filling up your mind will come from the scintillating conversation to be had with other DR readers. If you haven't already RSVPd, please do so by sending us a note at firstname.lastname@example.com.
And now to a world full of stuff no one wants. Selling stuff you bought with borrowed money is a process that's mostly been confined to the financial markets in 2008. But now we see the behaviour migrating into the economy. At the household level, a collective sense of thrift is beginning to set in. People are selling what they don't need to raise cash.
But let's start with the financial news first. Macquarie Group (ASX:MQG) told investors yesterday that its profit fell by 43%, thanks to write downs in assets. It was the first time since going public twelve years ago the "Millionaire Factory" has reported an earnings decline. Still, the $604 million profit number was higher than what analysts were expecting ($594 million) and the stock finished up over 16.5% on the day.
In the revenue results and write downs you can see how the decline and fall of the investment banking model has hit Australian shores. MQG reported a 13% decline in fee and commission income (to a paltry $2.2 billion). Trading income fell by 14% to $722 million. The big one was the 43% decline in income from asset and equity investments.
There were some strange assets in the back rooms of the Factory. The company took over a billion dollars in write downs on its Italian mortgages and fund management assets. It did not, however, take any write downs on Macquarie Airports or Macquarie Infrastructure Group. Hmmn.
Picture the good ship Macquarie Group as something like a Noah's Ark/Pirate Ship full of a menagerie of debt-financed assets. Under Captain Allan Moss as CEO, Australia's version of Goldman Sachs sailed the high-seas of global finance, buying assets with borrowed money, bundling them into funds, and then charging retail investors fees to invest in the funds. It's the sort of business those Somali pirates who hijack oil tankers should look into. Far more lucrative.
Twelve years of collective booty and swag gave the Factory quite a collection of eccentric and fee-generating assets. Some of those assets are not ageing so well. But you'll note the company chose not to mark down the value of its infrastructure or airport funds, the two big ones.
It claims the current market value of those assets isn't what they are really worth. The book value is more accurate. In the meantime, it is throwing other less attractive assets overboard. Deck chairs…Italian mortgages…extra chickens…everything must go!
There's no doubt that asset values are likely to fall more next year and that revenues will continue to fall too. Still, the company says it will sell $15 billion in assets and then set sail, on the lookout for more acquisitions again. Garn!
It's looking to sell its margin lending book. And new CEO Nick Moore said it will securitise its motor vehicle loan book, move it off the balance sheet, and sell it off. Thus the liquidation continues in the financial world. Loss-making assets are written down or thrown overboard at…er…fire sale prices.
What's really happening, mixed metaphors aside, is that the Millionaire Factory model is giving way to deleveraging reality. In a world with falling asset values and tighter bank credit, it's harder (and much less profitable) to build a cleverly constructed portfolio of assets and generate fee income from operating them.
In the post-credit crunch world (or post-Deluvian, if you accept the nautical metaphor), you have to focus on cash, not debt. One example would be Cash Converters, a sort of Main Street Macquarie, without the debt, and substituting Italian loafers for Italian mortgages. Cash Converters buys low and sells high. It's the perfect business for the first world depression.
Cash Converters helps people turn lazy assets (guitars, mobiles, stereos, old harmonicas) into cash. And what is that but the liquidation of the consumer spending boom? Of course, most stuff isn't worth as much people think it is. When you own something, you tend to think it's worth more than everyone else.
Then you try and auction it on eBay or take it to a pawn shop or Cash Converters. There, you find that it's worth a lot less than you believed in your heart. Such is life, as Ben Cousins and Ned Kelly might say. Kris Sayce at the Australian Small Cap Investigator (whom we often call the Ned Kelly of the Old Hat Factory) has been looking at Cash Converters as an example of what he calls "Main Street Stocks."
We'll let you know what he's up to…but we think it has something to do with companies that actually do more business in a recession and increase both revenues and earnings-without relying on debt. If you have your own suggestions for "Main Street Stocks," let us know at email@example.com

When I pulled in my driveway, the temp gauge shot up to H. I shut off the car, hood was still ice cold but smelled like antifreeze. Opened hood and a belt on the right side of my engine was shredded. The belt by the water pump is still intact. This belt is on the right side near the battery. What belt is it?

Routes through France to Spain
- a thematic guide to France

|French travel and tourism
Driving through FRANCE to SPAIN
When driving through France, don't forget to carry a yellow fluorescent jacket... All vehicles driving on French roads (and in Spain) are obliged to carry a yellow fluorescent jacket, that must be put on if the driver has to get out in an emergency. The jacket must be stored in the car, not in the boot, and be easily accessible. Failure to carry the obligatory jacket may lead to an instant fine of up to 130 Euros, if stopped by police.
► See French rules of the road for full details on French driving regulations.
►ALL ROADS SOUTH LEAD TO SPAIN ......There are four main routes south through France, and all of them lead to Spain.
They all include long stretches of toll motorway, but three out of four also include long sections of road that are not toll roads.
While it is of course possible to find a route south through France from Calais to the Spanish border avoiding all tolls, this is generally a pointless exercise except for very slow-moving vehicles, as it would involve hundreds of kilometres on slow road with numerous towns and villages to negotiate.
The fastest routes to Spain:
Eastern route or western route ? :
Eastern routes are recommended for visitors travelling to the Costa Brava and anywhere on the Spanish Mediterranean coast north of Valencia. They cross into Spain south of Perpignan, at the border at Le Perthus / La Junquera and continue towards Barcelona.
Western routes
These are recommended for travellers aiming for central or southern Spain or Portugal. Routes to southern Spain via Bordeaux and Irun are actually shorter than those via Lyon and Perpignan. Western routes cross into Spain south of Biarritz, at the border at Irun and continue towards Zaragoza, Burgos or Bilbao.
Distances indicated below are from Calais to the Spanish border.
Cheaper routes to Spain,
Note: Motorway tolls are based on September 2016 rates for cars.
For Car + caravan; add about 50%; for truck / HGV toll rates (class 4) : approximately three times the rate for cars.
Since the savings on fuel and on distance make the shortest routes an attractive proposition for HGVs (trucks), (notably N141 or N 10) they are not necessarily recommended for cars on weekdays. But HGVs are banned from the roads on Sundays in France, and there are far less of them on Saturdays.

► For nice places to stay in northern Spain, check Small hotels in Northern Spain
► ► Beware of the "cheap ferries" scam

It is a beautiful hotel with the perfect setting. I made the reservation on your website which was an excellent experience. I did not appreciate the sales manager calling me and threatening to cancel my 2 reservations if I did not pay for both rooms up front 30 days ahead of time. I was totally aware that it was Stanford's graduation weekend which is why I made the reservations to begin with.
The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the staff is excellent.
Great ambiance, great staff, lovely history. The hotel may not be for everyone -- if you like a modern experience ,not for you. Stay away, please, from my favorite hotel.
Location was great in the center of downtown Palo Alto. Cool old elevator. Very affordable. It was very loud at night from some of the nearby bars, though it seemed to quiet down after midnight. The shared bathrooms and showers were a bit of a hassle, but we never had to wait to use one.
It's right in the center of everything I just walk to Stanford, restaurant's, etc. You get some noice early morning trash collection and late at night people walk-in from bars, but they do offer ear plug

When he researched the story in the early Eighties, Keneally decided to write it as a novel rather than a biography because he wanted to reach the widest readership for polemical reasons. 'I was aware that to some the Holocaust is unutterable but I also felt that Europe had not accepted responsibility for its anti-Semitism. The Holocaust is a Gentile problem, not a Jewish one. I felt it ought not to be forgotten because it is morally unique. Coming up with an industrial process for getting rid of a hated race is the most thorough expression of race hate in European history. On the hate line in every racist's head something like Auschwitz is always the last station.'
He is adamant that the Holocaust should not be forgotten, which is why he is in London, jet-lagged, for the British premiere of Steven Spielberg's film version only days after attending the Australian premiere. He has seen the film six times and he thinks it gets better with every viewing. 'The first time I saw it, I was totally drawn into it. I forgot that it had anything to do with me. But I never had any doubts that Spielberg would serve the book well. When we first met, back in December 1983, to discuss it, it was clear he was interested in the very things that first attracted me to the Schindler character.'
Both Keneally and Spielberg were drawn to this unfathomable, contradictory character: a hard drinking womaniser who combined a chancer's willingness to profit from the war with an altruistic determination to save the lives of as many Jews as he could. 'Schindler had a capacity to be chums with SS men like Goeth (the sadistically murderous camp commandant) at the same time as being profoundly horrified by them. It's impossible to explain his motivation, but we both had the certainty that much of what he did could only be explained in terms of altruism. Also we were both attracted to this time when history was so upside down only a scoundrel was any use to anybody.'
Author and film director were both worried about trivialising the experience of those who had borne witness to them. 'I was writing for Gentiles, but you become obsessive about not debasing the witnesses' stories. Steven was afraid of this too, so the approval of the former prisoners probably gave him the greatest joy.'
Keneally spoke to many 'Schindler Jews' in researching his book. He was so concerned not to debase their stories that he wrote the novel in documentary style, inviting complaints when it won the Booker that it was not, strictly speaking, a novel. 'I read Tom Wolfe's The Right Stuff just before I encountered the Schindler story. I thought, this is the way to do it - the documentary novel - then it will reach a wide readership.'
Recently, Schindler Jews who had not responded to his letters at the time he was researching the book have come forward because of the film and given him their testimony about Schindler. Their stories merely add to the confusion about Schindler's character.
'Goeth's other Polish servant, who was a teenager at the time, told me at the Washington premiere of the film that Schindler used to come down to the cellar and say to her: 'I'll get you out, little one, don't you worry.' To restore a young girl's dignity to that extent was an act of extraordinary kindness. And he did get her out.
'Then another bloke in New York told me that he was brought to Schindler's camp as a boy of 11. Schindler saw him and said 'I don't want children here.' The kid gave some bullshit answer and Schindler let him stay, but only because he admired his line in bullshit. He'd been willing to send him back. So when I look back at the book's balance between altruism and opportunism, I think I'd still put it around where it is.'
Keneally has written 26 novels in 21 years on an eclectic range of subjects. Before Schindler's Ark won, he had already been shortlisted for the Booker three times: for his novel about Aborigines, The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith in 1972, for Gossip from the Forest (1975), set in France at the end of the First World War, and for Confederates (1979) about the American Civil War. He thinks he has written his best books since Schindler, however.
'I think my best are To Asmara, about the struggle for Eritrea, and The Playmaker, which I'm pleased to say Merchant-Ivory are going to film. I really think I'm getting on top of my craft now. When you're young, you have raw energy and there's no match for that, but I think you get technically more adept as you get older.'
He is slightly uncomfortable with the fact that the film and the reissue of Schindler's Ark (retitled Schindler's List) coincide with the publication of his first 'romp' novel, Jacko. 'It's a real romp that I found a joy to write. It's about Australian video gangsters pushing the bounds of popular television in America, working for a Murdoch- like being. Australian worldliness and innocence run up against American worldliness and innocence - very different things.'
He has already finished his next novel, provisionally titled In A Valley Reached By Steamers. It is set in 1900 in Kempsey, the town of his birth, on the north coast of New South Wales. His Irish Catholic grandparents ran a store there at the turn of the century. The new novel is about - among other things - two immigrants running a store, Punjabi hawkers selling cloths and herbal specifics, the Boer War and the bubonic plague in Sydney. He chuckles. 'It's a book I'm very much in love with, but it's not an immediate grabber.'
He finished the last large chunk of the book last week in a hotel in Melbourne, in between Schindler interviews. 'I really couldn't rest until it was done.' A compulsively industrious writer, it has been suggested that the speed with which he writes sometimes affects the quality of the finished work.
'They just seem to be finished when I finish them,' he says with a shrug. 'I do work very hard, I am compulsive. Even on a day when I'm travelling all over Australia I don't feel right if I don't find a spare hour to write, on a plane or in a hotel room. But my greatest strength is my greatest weakness. The same thing that could produce slapdashedness is also the thing that gets them done.'
And he listens to the advice of his editors. He rewrote much of Confederates when his editor expressed doubts. His hardback novel Woman Of The Inner Sea was shorn of some extraneous authorial intrusions - 'They seemed a good idea but it was author's vanity' - for its paperback publication.
He wanted to be a writer from a very early age. 'I thought writing was just the cleverest thing. I remember reading Captain Marryat's Masterman Ready. It was worlds away from my experience, but nothing blew me away like that did, even the pictures, which I loved. I didn't know it was possible for Australians to write. I thought foreign wars, fine wool and cricket was our way out of cultural ignominy. When my first novel was published in 1964, in my colonial innocence I carried on because there was no one to tell me I couldn't make a living from it.'

SESSION TITLE: Critical Care Case Report Posters I
SESSION TYPE: Affiliate Case Report Poster
PRESENTED ON: Tuesday, October 29, 2013 at 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM
INTRODUCTION: Hemodynamic transesophageal echocardiography is an FDA approved technology that uses thin, flexible, probes that enable intensivists to visualize cardiac function and assess volume status for up to 72 hours per probe. This minimally invasive technique can be used to assess the response of the heart as vasopressors, inotropes and vasodilators are titrated to optimal dose.
CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a 56 year old male with a history of carcinoma of the tongue that was witnessed aspirating tube feeds on a medical ward. He was intubated for hypoxic respiratory failure. Despite bronchoscopic removal of aspirate, low tidal volume ventilation, then airway pressure release ventilation, the patient developed worsening hypoxia. Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) therapy was initiated with improvement in the PaO2/FiO2 ratio from 78 to 166 mmHg. Peak dose of iNO was 80 ppm, and following improvement in oxygenation over the next 2 days, we began to wean ventilator support and the iNO therapy. We decreased the iNO dose by 10ppm every 2-4 hours. When the patient was weaned from 10ppm to off, he experienced a drop in blood pressure and oxygen saturation. He was given a bolus of fluid and iNO was resumed at 20ppm with a concomitant improvement in his hemodynamics and oxygenation noted. If the cessation of iNO was responsible for his decompensation, then stopping iNO had caused enough of an elevation in pulmonary artery pressure to cause right ventricular dysfunction. This would cause left ventricular dysfunction, a decrease in cardiac output, and the hypotension and hypoxia we observed. We inserted an hTEE probe and assessed right and left ventricular size and function. Leaving the probe in place, we then stopped iNO therapy and observed for changes. No changes in right ventricular size or function were observed after therapy had been discontinued. We were thus able to confirm that discontinuation of iNO had not been the cause of the patient's decompensation.
DISCUSSION: The ability to insert the probe and leave it in place facilitated image acquisition and analysis as iNO therapy was discontinued. Given its short half life, we only had to wait a few minutes for the iNO to clear the patient's system, to be able to observe for any changes. Being able to confirm that iNO was not the culprit, allowed us to change our diagnostic and management strategy and appropriately manage the patient.
CONCLUSIONS: We report the first case of iNO therapy management guided by hemodynamic imaging using an hTEE probe. This new tool has been demonstrated to be easy to insert and can be safely left in place.

Andy Murray's former coach Leon Smith believes the 25-year-old's victory in the US Open final is the reward for years of dedication to the game.
Smith, Britain's Davis Cup captain and head of men's tennis at the Lawn Tennis Association, knew from an early age Murray had the talent which he has finally realised with a victory over five sets against Novak Djokovic at Flushing Meadows.
Smith, who was Murray's first professional coach, told BBC Radio Five Live: "I'm so pleased for Andy, because knowing him you see how much work he's put in, not just this year but over the years.
"He's really worked so hard, physically and mentally to get his game to this level."
Smith believes Murray's Olympic gold medal win when he defeated Roger Federer in straight sets at Wimbledon gave him a major lift.
"Ever since he won the Olympics he has walked around with a lot more confidence. After winning yesterday it's going to do even more so now.
"For a great summer of British tennis this is the icing on the cake."
Murray's present coach Ivan Lendl said the 7-6 (12/10) 7-5 2-6 3-6 6-2 win over Djokovic had made it a "fantastic year" on the back of his Olympic success.
"I'm very happy for him. It's a great achievement for him and let's hope he can continue and rack up many more," said Lendl.
British doubles player Ross Hutchins described Murray's win as "monumental" and said the moment Murray achieved a second break of serve in the final set meant his fans were able to relax.
"When he got that second break we all felt a bit more comfortable and at ease that he was going to get over that winning line that we've all been waiting for him to get over for so long," said Hutchins.
"It's a great result, for Andy and for Great Britain in this incredible summer.
"On the same day that Fred Perry won it 76 years ago I think it was written in the stars, Lendl winning it on his fifth grand slam final and Andy doing the same it's an incredible achievement."
Former British number one Greg Rusedski, who tasted defeat in the US Open final in 1997, knew how much the victory meant.
"That was unbelievable," he told Sky Sports 1.
"If you look back, Fred Perry won his last major on September 10, and Andy Murray has won it on September 10.
"At the end of the day he found a way to get it done and found a way to control his emotions.
"He can thank Ivan Lendl for that. You have to give him so much credit for what he's done, to keep believing in what he's done.
"It shows you what a champion he is and, having won this, he can go on to win many majors and maybe end the year as the world number one."
Mark Petchey, Murray's former coach who commentated on the game for Sky, added: "I'm more thrilled he's won it like this. It shows he's unique and a bit special. It speaks volumes for Andy.
"It's so special, I had this thought at match point, I was thinking of when I once played horseshoes with him at his house," Petchey recalled of his early days with Murray.
"You knew he had a touch of genius about him and I am incredibly proud. He had so much courage. We need to make the point that he elevated his game and he took it to Novak."
Former Davis Cup captain John Lloyd told BBC Radio Five Live: "What a performance, that was just epic, just a dazzling performance from Murray.
"Mentally to come back from those positions - losing a two sets to love lead - how on earth did he do it?"
David Cameron hailed Murray's win as a "truly great victory" that continued the golden summer of sport.
The Prime Minister took to micro-blogging site Twitter to say: "Delighted Andy Murray is continuing a golden summer of sport by winning the US Open. A truly great victory."
Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond added: "Congratulations to Andy Murray on what was a fantastic performance.
"This is another brilliant win over Novak Djokovic and continues an amazing year for Andy.
"Now Olympic and US Open champion, Andy truly is a Scottish sporting legend and I'm certain that more grand slam titles will follow."
Former British number one Roger Taylor, a four-time grand slam semi-finalist, believes Lendl's contribution should not be overlooked.
The 70-year-old told Sky Sports News: "So much confidence has come from Andy's Olympics win and Lendl has added a great presence.
"Andy respects him and Ivan has realised Andy needs to play closer to the baseline."
It also took Lendl five grand slam finals before he claimed his maiden title - at the 1984 French Open - before going on to win seven more.
"There is such a similarity (between the two)," added Taylor. "It will have given Andy more belief to see Ivan go on to win many grand slams and it took him five (finals).
"He (Lendl) has made a great difference, he is a great character and has gelled the team together."
Taylor continued: "Andy is on top of the world, very few people can beat him and now with the added confidence from the Olympics I am sure he will go on to win many grand slam titles and become number one in the world.
"Finally British tennis is back on the map."
Former British player Andrew Castle, who now commentates on tennis on TV, said Murray had been inspired by the crowd after losing the Wimbledon men's final to Federer to go on to beat the same opponent to claim Olympic gold.
"What helped him to that was the crowd, the spirit we have had this summer," said Castle, paying tribute to the part British fans have played throughout the Olympics and Paralympics.
"I cannot believe that Great Britain got it so right. Now the challenge is to keep it all going," Castle added on BBC Radio Five Live.
Roger Draper, chief executive of the LTA, said: "We are really proud of Andy and what he has achieved. We see the hard work that he puts in day in and day out. It's a fantastic achievement for Andy."
Draper praised Murray for winning Olympic gold against Federer and then silver in the mixed doubles with Laura Robson before claiming the US Open, playing in an era which features Federer, Rafael Nadal and Djokovic.
"To win Olympic gold, to beat the greatest tennis player on Centre Court, to then win the silver with Laura Robson and then again to go out and be the first British man in 76 years to win a grand slam has been a phenomenal achievement," Draper added on BBC Radio Five Live.
"He's done it in an era where you've got not just Roger Federer, the greatest player that's probably ever lived, but you've got Rafa Nadal, Novak Djokovic as well."

Women considered better coders ã but only if they hide their gender on Github
Marlene Breverman stashed this in Coding
Researchers find software repository GitHub approved code written by women at a higher rate than code written by men, but only if the gender was not disclosed
Stashed in: Women, Awesome, GitHub, Girls Who Code
The researchers, whoô published their findingsô earlier this week looked at the behavior of software developers on GitHub, one of the largest open-source software communities in the world.
Based in San Francisco, GitHub is a giant repository of code used by over 12 million people. Software developers on GitHub can collaborate on projects, scrutinise each otherãs work, and suggest improvements or solutions to problems. When a developer writes code for someone elseãs project, itãs called a ãpull requestã. The owner of the code can then decide whether or not to accept to proffered code.
The researchers looked at approximately 3m pull requests submitted on GitHub, and found that code written by women was approved at a higher rate (78.6%) than code written by men (74.6%).
There are two implications from this study:
1. Women write better code because their code is accepted more if gender is unknown.
2. There is community-wide bias against accepting the code if gender is known.
Number 2 is unsettling because it speaks to a community bias.
Number 2 is also being questioned -- see below.
Top Reddit comment:
This conclusion was actually reached through very questionable methods (seeô the original preprint).
- The original hypothesis was that women's contributions would be rejected more often. It was not supported by the data.
- Then the researchers started looking for some way to justify their initial hypothesis in the face of this data.
- After multiple failed attempts they discovered thatô in one specific situationô (if the gender is obviousô andô the woman is not a long-term contributor to the project) women's contributions appear to be rejected more often. Note that they used a heuristic to check whether the gender is obvious or not.
- They immediately assumed without any further research that it is due to gender bias. They didn't even consider what other factors could be at play, as they did when their initial results appeared to disprove their hypothesis.
- They didn't try to explain in any way why contributions areô alwaysô rejected more often if the gender is obvious ã whether male or female. Yet their graph clearly shows it.
Given such flaws, I don't think it's a good idea to promote this preprint as it is in any case.
Source: https://reddit.com/r/science/comments/45bq1q/data_analysis_of_github_contributions_reveals/
This may be taken as respected research or not. What is most illuminating, and vital, is that this shows the need to scrutinize in-depth any 'Research', 'Studies Show', ad infinitum. And to also delve into the bona fides of any outside people/sources who applaud or refute the findings. Not to be a cynic, but a realist. Thank you for pointing this out, Adam.
You're welcome, Marlene.
I think it's good that the research sparked the discussion.

An editorial in Saturday's Washington Times highlighted the discovery by the MRC's Rich Noyes, as detailed in a Friday NewsBusters posting, about how "Leslie Cauley, the USA Today reporter who 'broke' the news that three major U.S. telecommunications companies were assisting the National Security Agency in building a database to more easily track any communications by potential terrorists, is listed as a donor to former House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt, according to a search of the Center for Responsive Politics Web site."
The May 20 editorial, "Spinning, Spying and USA Today," recounted: "With Verizon and BellSouth both challenging USA Today's report on their alleged participation in NSA's surveillance programs, it's not yet clear whether or to what extent the claims in the Gannett daily's much-discussed article are true. What's clearer is that USA Today reporter Leslie Cauley has ties to the Democratic Party, which the Media Research Center's 'NewsBusters' Web site unearthed yesterday. Searching through campaign-filing records, Rich Noyes discovered that Miss Cauley gave $2,000 to then-Democratic presidential hopeful Dick Gephardt in 2003. That's the type of activity that journalists normally avoid if they wish to be perceived as objective..." (How Rush Limbaugh also picked up the posting, follows)
The Washington Times also relayed another part of the Noyes item, noting "Cauley's collaboration with Democratic fund-raising heavyweight Leo Hindery, with whom she coauthored a 2003 book."
Near the end of Friday's show, Rush Limbaugh briefly mentioned Cauley's donation and the RushLimbaugh.com home page this weekend features a link to the Noyes item on Cauley. Right under the picture of liberal Senator Patrick Leahy holding up Cauley's front page story, Limbaugh has a link to NewsBusters: "USA Today Writer Has Ties to Democrat Campaign."

Texas Ranks Second On Tech Export List
Texas has been ranked number two in the nation in terms of technology exports, according to a report released by the AeA today. The AeA, a trade association representing the high tech industry, said that Texas had $35.9 billion in technology exports in 2007. The report found that the biggest export sectors for the state were communications equipment, with $8.8B in exports; electronic components, at $3.5B; and semiconductors, at $8.7B. Although Texas was ranked highly, the AeA noted that the state had a drop in exports in semiconductors and computer and peripheral equipment during the period.

Well lovely readers, I'm back again for the third instalment of our wedding advice mini-series and now, with less than two weeks to go until Christmas (yippee!), it seems rather fitting that this week, we're talking about drinks and dinner! So, can I suggest that you grab yourself something lovely to sip and possibly a seasonal nibble as well so you can really get into the spirit of this feature…
After the build up to your wedding day, the morning of the big day and the ceremony itself, it's definitely time to celebrate! Most couples serve drinks and food after they've taken their vows before heading into the dinner itself but, of course, you've got so many options and choices here so make sure that whatever is on your menu suits you. However, the drinks reception is where your party really starts so enjoy yourself as Emmanouela from couture design house Nymphi Design says:
"You're at a party for you and you only! This doesn't happen often so make sure that you enjoy every minute."
Araminta from Jacaranda Catering absolutely agrees and offers some more wise words: "Have fun!! This is your time to shine in all your glory and in that stunning dress. People will want to grab you and talk to you so do it. Your head will be a whirlwind and the reception time will go so quickly. Make sure you eat some canapés, if they don't come to you then just get a waiter to get you some."
Eating and mingling seems to feature highly on the advice from many of our Little Book for Brides experts so, let's talk about all things edible (and quaffable!) first:
"Make sure that people have a drink in their hand as soon as possible after the ceremony," advises Rachel from stationers Paper Arrow Press and she's definitely right – serving drinks quickly after the ceremony really helps the atmosphere and helps everyone relax. After all, you're celebrating a momentous occasion so ask your venue or caterers to be on hand with drinks as quickly as possible post-ceremony.
"If you're having a relaxed outdoor drinks reception, use drinks dispensers, mason jars and straws to tie in with the rustic theme," says Karen from Passion for Flowers. "For a touch of glamour, you can serve drinks on beautiful trays decorated with flower heads or ask your florist to add some blooms to your drinks reception tables. I also love seeing bar fronts that have been decorated with lush garlands."
"Get creative with your drinks," suggests Sonia from The Wedding Bliss Thailand. "Classic cocktails like Margaritas and Mojitos are always on trend but it's really fun to put together something unique for your wedding bar. Our favourites are alcoholic popsicles for summer weddings, 'mix your own drink' stations for laid-back celebrations and quick bartender masterclasses for young creatives." "Personalised cocktails have proved to be a massive hit this year for couples," agrees Harriet from De Winton Paper Co. "We've been commissioned to illustrate a number of beautiful watercolour images on signs to let guests know just what they'll be indulging in." And whilst indulging is certainly to be encouraged, over-indulging is best avoided at this stage in the day so don't let those canapés pass you by: "Plan for your canapés and drinks to be served around the same time," says Claire from wedding stationers Littlebird Weddings. "This will help avoid those sparkles going to guests' heads!" And you do need to keep a slightly clear head here because as well as photos, you'll also have a LOT of people who are really keen to spend some time with you: "Try and speak to everyone!" says Sam from Sass & Grace Bridal Boutique. "I know it's hard but you really are the star of the show and everyone will want a piece of you!"
"Definitely greet every guest," says Sian from Tilly Trotter's Brides. "I didn't get to speak to all of my guests and three years later, I still feel pangs of guilt when I think of some of my wonderful friends who travelled so far to celebrate with us and who I didn't make enough time for."
"You can be organised with your mingling," advises Georgina from chic stationers Georgina Read Creative. "Set a chit-chat time limit in your head. Greet and talk to each guest for what feels like a maximum of five minutes and then move on to the next one."
Whilst this might seem a bit too much like hard work, you do have to make a bit of an effort to mix, mingle and move on because, as well as celebrating with your nearest and dearest, it's usual to have photographs taken during this part of the day too. Obviously, you'll want to look your best for the camera so here are our makeup experts with a few tips:
"Flushing is super common during the drinks reception – after all, you've been on the fizz since about 10am!" says makeup artist Kylie McMichael. "Stay hydrated throughout the day and ask your makeup artist to apply a colour correcting foundation/concealer to keep redness at bay. I love Nuxe's DD Cream, Amazing Cosmetics concealers and Kiehl's BB Cream for this."
"You might need a touch of colour on your lips or a little more powder before your photos, particularly if it's a hot day or if your ceremony was rather emotional," says makeup artist Maxine Wilson. "Drinking through a straw can help keep your lip colour in place but really, this shouldn't be your first priority!"
With all that in mind, it's time to move on to the photographs and Ross Hurley has some invaluable advice about timings for this portion of the day: "When planning your drinks reception, think about the timings. I would highly recommend having it last a minimum of 90 minutes. The reason? There is an awful lot to fit into this section of your day and with a small drinks reception, things can feel very rushed and a little stressful."
What exactly needs to be captured during your drinks reception? I'll hand you back to Ross Hurley to explain all:
"Within this time, you will want to say hello and welcome your guests. You will then probably want a few family group photos. This can take a lot longer than you would expect. (I photograph a maximum of 6 family setups, as this can take 45 minutes! There is always someone in the bar, or the toilet and trying to organise this section of the day can get a little frustrating)."
"You will also want pictures of your details within your reception room and most importantly, you will want those natural photographs of your wedding. They document your day telling the story from start to finish."
"But, no doubt you will also want some beautiful shots of you both! The ones of you walking through the long grass, or the stunning woodland! Ones you can hang on your wall. Using the time allocated this should be at least 20 minutes to half an hour."
"As you can see, even 90 minutes for this period pushes the boundaries and that's why, when you plan this section of the day, make sure you have plenty of time to do all the things you want to do."
Of course, there are no hard-and-fast rules stating that photos must take place at this time and, as photographer Winston Sanders explains, there are some really great reasons why you might like to put them off a little:
"To start with, you've just got married and you'll no doubt want to celebrate with a drink with your friends and family. However, a really good reason why you might want to put the photos on hold for a bit is that you'll likely get more flattering images when the light is softer later in the afternoon. If your ceremony finished early in the afternoon and you're having a summer wedding, you might like to have a chat with your photographer about having some of your group or couple photographs taken later."
Whenever you decide to have your group photos taken, there are a few things that you can do to help the process run much more smoothly:
"Think about who should be in your group shots before the big day," says photographer Annelie Eddy. "Write a list and share it with your photographer. It can be helpful to go over the list with any family members who are set on having certain group shots. This gives you a chance to manage expectations and avoid any conflict on the wedding day."
From my own time as a wedding planner, I'd suggest writing out the names of everyone who's going to be required for each photograph and then detailing a couple of groomsmen (ideally ones who know your families and close friends) to assist in gathering everyone together in the right place at the right time. I'd also urge you not to stress too much about managing this part of your day to the n-th degree – trust in your photographers and their amazing abilities and experience to run this section of proceedings. It's not your responsibility and you certainly shouldn't be stressed about your photography at all. "When it comes to you on the day, you need to have a bit of a 'go with the flow' attitude," says photographer Fiona Kelly. "There's a chance that things might run late or not go fully to plan. That's fine, it happens and it happens far more frequently that you would imagine. Not getting stressed about the small stuff when it comes to your reception will mean that you enjoy the time fully. Once you hit the wedding day if something's not right, delegate it to a bridesmaid or groomsman to sort out. Don't try and sort it out yourself and end up missing half your own wedding reception." Wise words indeed. Lastly, before we make our way into dinner, there are just a few more tips that I want to pass on to you and we'll hear from The Flower Lounge's Sian first: "If you're planning on preserving your bouquet, then ask your florist or the venue to have a vase waiting for your flowers during the drinks reception so they're not out of water too long. This will keep your flowers looking fresh for photographs and your bouquet will also be in the best condition for preserving. Plus, you'll have your hands free for that first celebration drink!"
"Also, if I make a sash with hooks and eyes or poppers, I sometimes make it so that it can be loosened a little before the bride takes her seat for dinner," says Helena at Heavenly Vintage Brides. "That advice goes for all gowns really – it's a long day and it's important to be comfortable and relaxed."
As your guests prepare to make their way into dinner, what should you be doing? Araminta from Jacaranda Catering has a brilliant idea:
"I also suggest that, as your guests take their seats, this is the time for you and your new husband to take some time together. Go and sit together, on the steps of the venue or on a bench in the garden. This is the only moment you'll have alone together in the midst of your big day so don't let it pass you by. Finally, make sure that you take off your veil before you go into dinner – the formalities and photographs are over, it's time to relax."
But, before you can eat, everyone has to find their seats and all of our experts agree that a table plan is a real wedding must-have:
"Arrange a table plan for where guests should be seated. This can be complicated and time consuming, with the chance of late changes. But, it is of my humble opinion that a seating plan works best. Catering companies will recommend you have one as they will need to know who is having what food and where," says photographer Ross Hurley. "But for those weddings whereby a BBQ has been chosen, it seems the 'relaxed' feel of no seating plan seems to be more and more popular. I've seen on a few occasions within my recent wedding season, the sign that says, 'Now that we are together forever, please feel free to sit wherever' or alike. As much as that may sound like a good idea and a lovely sentiment, the realities of this do not work."
Ross explains: "When guests first enter the room, there is an element of confusion straight away. People want to be told where to sit and they pretty much expect it. When it's realised they can sit anywhere, people stop and survey with their friends. They go and take up 5 spaces on a table of 8. The next group come in and does the same thing. Within a short space of time, all tables have guests seated around them, but still half of the guests are yet to enter!" "So now, a group of four want to sit together, but only three spaces remain on one table and one on another. One decides to pick up a seat and move it onto the other table with their friends. Quickly a very untidy room is created and guests are moving all over the place. The top table also doesn't exist and it means the main family can be split all over the room. The idea of this is lovely and the sentiment is there. But in reality, your guests need order and to be told where to go to avoid confusion and stress." Aside from the practical benefits of a table plan, there are some aesthetic plus-points too: "A statement seating plan can kill two birds with one stone," says Tom from florists Agent F. "They're practical and, if dressed as a beautiful tableau, they can reduce the need for large, expensive decorations. Go for something dramatic and elegant such as hand calligraphy on a mirror and your guests will all have something to talk about. They're also certain to notice it too!"
Lorna from stationers EYI Love agrees:
"Organise a gorgeous table plan in advance so that everyone knows where they're sitting so no-one's left wondering where to sit. Once they've taken their seats, having some talking points on the tables is always a great icebreaker. It could be a fabulous place setting, a brilliant favour or something more interactive for guests to read or fill in."
When it comes to creating a great atmosphere at the tables for guests, Tom from Agent F has this to say:
"To keep your guests at ease and the conversation flowing, it's vital to ensure that your guests can all make eyes at one another across the table! Don't place tall, bulky arrangements in the centre of your tables. Add height and drama instead with tall centrepieces held aloft on slender vases or elegant candelabra. Also, don't overcrowd your tables – remember that your caterers will need space for cruets, condiments, glasses, table numbers and napkins to name but a few."
Now's the time to eat and your menu, like the rest of your wedding day, can be as personal as you like:
"We recommend 'feast style' dining with long rows of rectangular banquet tables to fit whole groups of family and friends," says Amanda from wedding tent and teepee company PapaKåta. "Our Farmhouse table, part of our Farmhouse-Luxe range, is wider than standard trestles allowing for more luxurious dining with statement tablescapes, crockery, glassware and floral centrepieces."
"Focus on quality and creativity with your menu," suggests Sonia from The Wedding Bliss Thailand. "Think about seasonality and trends such as 'farm to table'. Modern cuisine leans towards healthy and sustainable ingredients."
"Choose something that reflects you as a couple," advises Hannah from stylists All Things Borrowed. "Whether it's a lovely three-course meal, a sharing feast or food wagons, food is something that people really remember so opt for a menu that's seriously yummy!"
Lianne from stationers LoveLi agrees:
"Have the meal that you want and don't worry about the fussy eaters! If you want something alternative, go for it. It's your day and if that's what you want to eat, roll with it. Your nearest and dearest will, I'm sure, come to love the idea because they love you too."
Of course, we can't finish our wedding meal without speeches but, as with all things wedding, you can choose to do these at a time that suits you best:
"Consider having your speeches between the main course and dessert," says Claire from Littlebird Weddings. "That way your guests will have had something to eat and will probably be more welcoming of speeches than they would be before the meal and they might well be grateful for the chance to let their main course settle before you bring out the puddings!"
When it comes to the speeches themselves, Joanna from videographers Viva La Wedding has a few tip tips for anyone who needs them:
"A pinch of humour goes a long way but don't recycle tired old jokes from the Internet. Share stories that say a lot about someone's character and whilst we know setting out to embarrass the groom might be the done thing for the best man, don't stitch him up too much. He can probably take it but can his Mum? We've seen a fair few speeches fall flat because the Best Man has been too harsh for the taste of the wedding party. So, consider a ratio of two parts friendly ribbing to one part of 'seriously, what a guy!'"
With the content of the speeches nailed, the delivery makes a big difference as Joanna again explains:
"Stand up straight, speak up, slow down and make eye contact. If you do all that, your audience will be eating out of the palm of your hand, trust me!"
"When you're planning your speeches, try and encourage everyone to speak from one spot," suggests videographer Julie from Mintyslippers Media Ltd. "And if there is a microphone available, try to use it. Some people in the room will struggle to hear you at the back!"
As your dinner comes to an end, your guests are happy and you're looking ahead to the evening party, don't forget one last thing as Sian from The Flower Lounge explains:
"This is the moment, when you're sat with your new husband, that you should take a moment to look around the room and soak it all up. The vision you had all those months ago for your perfect day is now a reality. The decorations, the flowers, the music, your friends and family, it's all here and you've made it happen. This moment makes all the months of planning worthwhile so don't miss it."
And with that, I'll leave you to enjoy some happy thoughts of how amazing that feeling in your special moment will be but I'll be back next week to talk about the evening party and share a few expert tips for those post-wedding weeks and months.

(A book in the John Piper series)
A novel by Harry Carmichael
John Piper's diary for Saturday December 7th read: Fritz Haupmann. Call 2.30 re factory insurance cover with Cresset. When Piper arrived at the house and saw his client lounging in an armchair listening to Mozart, he had no reason to think that this was one day he would never forget. It was not Haupmann's premonitions of disaster that so impressed themselves on Piper, nor even the startling beauty of Gizelle Haupmann. . . . Disregarding the warnings Haupmann had been given at seances held by a London spiritualist association, Piper endorsed the additional insurance that Haupmann asked for. No sooner were the policies issued than it became ap¬parent that something more tangible than ghostly spirits was bent on injuring Fritz Haupmann. Somebody hated him: somebody was prepared to conduct a ruthless vendetta against him and all he held dear. Harry Carmichael's latest novel builds up by way of numerous adroit twists, shifts of suspicion and rising excitement to a sensational climax.
