Joe Dolan, one of Ireland�s first pop music stars who entertained audiences for decades with Vegas-style showmanship, has died from a brain hemorrhage, his family announced. He was 68.
Dolan collapsed at his family home in suburban south Dublin on Christmas night and died Wednesday after falling into a coma at a hospital.
He was the most celebrated � and fondly caricatured � survivor of Ireland�s bygone �showband� era of the 1960s and 1970s, when homegrown rock �n� roll acts toured the country playing cover versions of international hits.
His biggest hit in 1969, �Make Me an Island,� reached No. 3 in Britain and No. 1 in 14 other countries. Other hits that climbed the European charts included �You�re Such a Good-Looking Woman� in 1970, �Lady in Blue� in 1975 and �I Need You� in 1977.
His last Irish No. 1 came in 1997, when he re-recorded �Good-Looking Woman� with a popular fictional TV comedian, a puppet named Dustin the Turkey.
�He was a fantastic showman, had great stage presence, had a distinctive singing voice and never forgot his roots,� said Prime Minister Bertie Ahern.
Dolan, with a bushy brow and beaming smile, was known for the power and quality of a voice that fell somewhere between Tom Jones and Tony Bennett. Unlike other showband stars, he found success overseas with original material.
He had an irreverent sense of humor, most recently demonstrated when he underwent a hip replacement operation in 2005 � and had his original hip bone sold for charity on eBay.
In recent years, Dolan kept touring and recording regularly, and was in the middle of a concert series in Dublin in November when he left the stage after just four songs, suffering from exhaustion. He canceled a planned Christmas tour.
His funeral was scheduled for tomorrow.

In light of the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, Congress has requested an additional 1,000 Marine security guards be added to the Marine Corps Embassy Security Group in order to beef up security at America's overseas diplomatic interests, but fulfilling this request could be easier said than done, and it may not be enough to thwart another attack.
The Marine Corps Embassy Security Group
There are currently about 1,200 Marines serving with the Embassy Security Group in 130 of the 180 countries in which the State Department has diplomatic interests. The congressional mandate would nearly double the size of the Embassy Security Group by the beginning of the 2014 fiscal year, which is when the authorization for the additional personnel begins. It would last for three years.
A Marine Corps spokesman at the Pentagon, Capt. Gregory Wolf, said in an interview with the Marine Corps Times that it shouldn't be a problem to meet the new staffing requirements, but others aren't so sure.
In the same article, Andrew Bufalo, the author of a book about the Embassy Security Group, "Ambassadors in Blue," points to a number of challenges that the State Department and Marine Corps are going to have to overcome in order to meet the mandate. Bufalo previously served as a detachment commander with the group at embassies in the Republic of Congo and Australia.
According to Bufalo, the Marine Corps has always had challenges meeting staffing demands of the Embassy Security Group because the standards are so high. The Embassy Security Group requires higher quality Marines and, for this reason, many commanders are reluctant to let their best Marines go.
In addition, of those Marines selected to attend the group's training, about 25 percent wash out of the program because they can't meet the requirements.
This has led to Fleet Antiterrorism Security Teams (FAST) being used to fill in gaps in security needs, but as Bufalo points out, the standards for this group are not as high as they are for Embassy Security Group, making it easier for more Marines to become part of these teams. He cautions against lowering standards simply to fill available positions, saying that operations could suffer.
The training for Embassy Security Group takes seven weeks and there are five classes per year. Each class starts with 200 students, but 150 or less will graduate. At that rate, it would take more than a year to fulfill the congressional mandate for 1,000 new guards, well past the beginning of the 2014 fiscal year.
In addition, Marines are limited to the amount of time they spend with the Embassy Security Group, which means that more Marines are leaving as the new guards arrive. Training 1,000 new Marines for embassy security could force the Corps to add more classes, but this presents another problem.
Training more Marines would facilitate the need for more instructors or larger classes with each Marine receiving less attention and scrutiny. Instructor positions are always hard to fill because they require experience and training, above and beyond the students they are teaching. Again, this means that operations could suffer.
The Bureau of Diplomatic Security
The Marine Corps Embassy Security Group is responsible for the security of the State Department's physical locations, though their duties often overlap with the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, the civilian force responsible for the security of information and the people working for the State Department. The Bureau of Diplomatic Security has final authority.
The shortage of Marine security guards is not the only problem the State Department faces when it comes to the security of its interests.
In fact, the Government Accountability Office issued a report back in 2009 detailing multiple security shortcomings at the department's various sites and recommended that the department conduct a review of the Bureau of Diplomatic Security. As of November 2012, that review had not been done as recommended.
According to the GAO's November 2012 report:
"Diplomatic Security faces several policy and operational challenges. First, State is maintaining missions in increasingly dangerous locations, necessitating the use of more security resources and making it more difficult to provide security in these locations. Second, although Diplomatic Security has grown considerably in staff, staffing shortages, as well as other operational challenges, further tax Diplomatic Security's ability to implement its mission. Finally, State has expanded Diplomatic Security without the benefit of adequate strategic planning."
While the Bureau of Diplomatic Security tried to take steps on its own to improve, they fell woefully short.
"We appreciate the steps that the Bureau has taken on its own initiative," the GAO report said, "however we continue to believe that the Department, and not the Bureau, needs to take action in order to strategically assess the competing demands on Diplomatic Security and the resulting mission implications."
Had the State Department done as the GAO recommended, it's possible that adequate security would have been available in Benghazi and that the four Americans lost would still be alive.
While it's admirable that Congress wants to increase security assets now, as well they should, it's a little like closing the barn door after the horse is already out. The rush to solve continued security challenges at U.S. embassies and consulates could end up causing more harm than good if the right people aren't adequately trained and equipped to do the job, and it isn't part of an overall revamping of embassy security.

Ann Arbor, Mich. – It was a provocative prediction that due to the obesity epidemic Baby Boomers may outlive their children.
But a new study by the University of Michigan Health System on obesity trends shows Americans are getting heavier younger and carrying the extra weight for longer periods over their lifetime suggests the impact on chronic diseases and life expectancy may be worse than previously thought.
The findings will be published April 12 in the International Journal of Obesity.
Researchers used a wide range of national data on children and adults born between 1926 and 2005 to reveal the troubling trend of younger generations becoming obese earlier in life than their parents and grandparents.
According to the study, 20 percent of those born 1966-1985 were obese by ages 20-29. Among their parents, those born 1946-1955, that level of obesity was not reached until ages 30-39, not until ages 40-49 for individuals born between1936-1945, and obesity prevalence was even later – during the 50's – for those born between 1926-1935.
Further research is needed to understand the future effect the obesity trend will have on diabetes rates and mortality.
"Many people have heard that Americans are getting heavier," says lead author Joyce Lee, M.D., M.P.H., a pediatric endocrinologist at the U-M C.S. Mott Children's Hospital and assistant professor in the Department of Pediatrics and Communicable Diseases at the U-M Medical School. "But it's very important to understand who the obesity epidemic is affecting.
"Our research indicates that higher numbers of young and middle-age American adults are becoming obese at younger and younger ages," she says.
Evidence shows body mass index, a calculation of fat and weight, increases with age, and children who are obese are more likely to become obese adults.
Obesity is a well-known contributor to type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, disability and premature death.
The prediction, made in 2005, for a reduced life expectancy in the 21st century, was based on obesity prevalence from the period 1988-1994, the mid-point of the obesity epidemic, and included much older adults, born 1885-1976, a generation that had much lower obesity rates over their lifetime.
The federally funded U-M study shows obesity trends were worse for women and blacks, a bad sign for reversing racial disparities in health, U-M authors say. Among 20-29-year-olds, born 1976-1985, 20 percent of whites were obese compared to 35 percent of blacks in that age group.
"What is particularly worrisome is that obesity trends are worse for blacks compared to whites," Lee says. "Black Americans already experience a higher burden of obesity-related diseases and the obesity trends will likely magnify those racial disparities in health."

After starting as a quarterback, Davis Beal was asked to add long snapping to his repertoire because the motion is the same as throwing it over the top.
Safe to say it's worked out pretty well.
Beal officially committed to play football at the University of Houston at a signing day ceremony on Tuesday morning, joining six other Vandegrift athletes in signing on to continue their athletic careers at the next level.
"I'm just looking forward to getting down there this summer and start working out with the team and Coach Holgorsen," Beal said. "The key is you've got to be fast and accurate with a good pop time."
Ina Edstrom will compete in the pole vault at South Alabama, Adriana Santiago Guillen will play volleyball at Allen Community College, Addie Yeats will play beach volleyball at Texas A&M Corpus Christi, Tyson Smith will play baseball t Texas Lutheran, Jake Miller will play baseball at Dodge City Community College and Cole McCue will play soccer at Concordia.
This is the fifth signing day of the school year at Vandegrift and nearly 30 athletes have committed to continue their careers in college.
After attending special teams camp and participating in the Blue-Grey All-American Bowl, Beal was weighing offers from other big schools such as Texas and Michigan.
"It's something you've got to be patient with," Beal said. "You've got to have faith that God is looking out for you and that he walloped and close doors that will put you in the right place."
His senior season was a historic one for the Vipers, which went undefeated and won a district title for the first time in school history. They broke through to the third round of the playoffs for the first time since jumping to Class 6A.
"I'll remember playing with my friends and enjoying the game," Beal said. "I loved every moment of it, whether it was playing quarterback or snapping. I just enjoyed practice and everybody you get out on the field with."

Small rest room reworking just isn't a straightforward factor to do because of the problem of creating probably the most out of the tiny and limited house you will have to work with. Determine if you wish to spend your cash on a complete-physique shower wall or a very tiled bathe. I prompt that she select prematurely the precise fixtures and ground and wall tiles she needs and to go forward and purchase them, overbuying by 25{527b836e6b9b3100842f6ac7f8198eb43a405417f6398d103cf2947451c11138}, to avoid any markup the contractor may add if he buys them for her.
The sections "Remodeling phases", "Lavatory designs", "Reworking options", "Customized constructed vs. store purchased accessories", and "Labor" have been added and now there may be more detailed information about the totally different options, possibilities and value ranges for this venture.
In keeping with Transforming magazine's 2005 Value vs. Worth Report, a mid-vary rest room rework is approximately $10,499, increased or decrease relying on where you reside (and how you outline mid-vary). As a common rule, most people anticipate that the labor for a remodel will value roughly twice as a lot because the materials did.
Lavatory transform prices aren't the best in the house, but for so long as humankind has been renovating bathrooms, contractors have been raking in a pretty penny on the method. You can exchange a toilet or vanity or take on some limited re-tiling and pay à la carte for the cost of the brand new fixtures and the hours of set up work.
$17,000 sounds like an affordable common for a grasp lavatory remodel. One of the main prices in a rework is moving fixtures, corresponding to the bathroom, sink and tub. First step: Figure out which of the three levels of transforming your mission falls into, then begin taking a look at images of loos to figure out what model, materials and amenities you need.

There are thousands of alcoholism treatment centers. Many have programs that provide a high level of care, but there are also many that will take advantage of you and treat you with substandard solutions. For this reason, It's important to do your research, ask the right questions, and know what to look for.
Though 15.1 million Americans over the age of 18 were living with an alcohol use disorder in 2015, according to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) 2015 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), only about 6.7 percent of this number received the treatment they needed to heal.
Similarly, SAMHSA's 2015 NSDUH found that about 623,000 youth between the ages of 12 and 18 were living with an alcohol use disorder yet only about 5.2 percent of that number sought treatment. This is likely due to a widespread lack of recognition that alcohol use at certain levels is indeed a threatening and potentially fatal issue that requires treatment as well as the feeling that there is no access to the comprehensive treatment that is needed to stop drinking safely.
The fact is, however, that there are a number of options available for people in need of treatment for an alcohol use disorder, whether the problem is binge drinking, alcoholism, or somewhere in between. For many, the journey to recovery starts right here.
Options Available in Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment
Alcohol use disorders occur on a spectrum, and for that reason, alcohol addiction treatment is also offered on a number of different levels to better speak to the needs of the individual seeking help. The type of treatment that will be most suitable for you should be determined by your drug and alcohol history, your previous attempts at treatment, any co-occurring medical and/or mental health conditions, and your current situation. Some options include:
- Medical detox: For those living with alcoholism and/or a physical dependence on alcohol, the first step will be a medical detox program that can provide necessary medical care.
- Residential treatment: For those who require 24-hour medical care and supervision and/or those who do not have a safe and sober home or have been unsuccessful in other types of programs, residential treatment provides an immersive treatment experience.
- Partial hospitalization program: Some individuals begin their treatment experience in the care of a hospital, undergo medical detox there, and then transfer into a residential or outpatient addiction treatment program.
- Intensive outpatient program: A comprehensive outpatient treatment program will include most of the therapeutic interventions and treatments offered in a residential program five days a week, usually for between five and eight hours per day.
- Outpatient treatment: Appropriate for those with no physical dependence on alcohol and a strong support system at home, an outpatient treatment program that offers a flexible schedule may be a good fit for those who would like to stay actively involved in work or school.
As the leader in addiction treatment American Addiction Centers specializes in helping people recover from alcohol addiction. If you are looking for more information about alcohol addiction, find some useful information for those seeking guidance; or you can learn more about insurance coverage and instantly verify insurance with an AAC facility.
Overcoming Challenges to Recovery
It is the nature of addiction to make normal challenges feel insurmountable, and this applies when it comes to finding and embarking on a treatment program to address alcoholism. The fact is, however, that no challenge is insurmountable. There is a program that is right for everyone who is living with an alcohol use disorder. It is just a matter of taking the steps to begin.

Feedback: Talk about reader response! After our discussion of online brokers (below), MarketWatch viewers sounded off: "I am amazed that you believe any full-service broker would charge only 25 cents a share. That is lower than many discount brokers charge," said Anthony K. Zally. Added Stephen Street: "The 'full service' brokers I've had were not what they claim. Their research is less than what is available on the net, their reaction time is nonexistent, and they are WAY overpriced."
SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- The Internet is changing the brokerage business. No argument there. The question most folks should ask is: for better or worse?
Are Web brokers making it too easy for investors to flip their stocks and bonds? Do ordinary folks really understand the technical gunk that Wall Street calls investment-level research?
Oh, remember the full-service broker on the telephone, telling lousy jokes while he (or she) charged you 25-cent-a-share commissions? Well, some armchair investors, even the ones sitting at desktop computers, miss full-service brokers and crave their advice on the Web.
On Tuesday in New York, brokerage executives and analysts will tell all, we hope. Multex, the online investment research firm, is sponsoring a talk that features executives from Salomon Smith Barney (CCI) CCI, -1.43% , Quick & Reilly (FLT) FLT, -2.03% , Credit Suisse First Boston and Merrill Lynch (MER) MER, -1.02% , which has yet to fully embrace the world of Web trading.
I'm the moderator, so I get to ask questions like: How does the online crowd set itself apart from the full-service crowd? Who are the leaders? How do you sell Wall Street research to ordinary folks? (Did you know Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette's DLJ Direct (DLJ) dlj gives away the investment firm's research to Web customers who keep $100,000 or more in their accounts?)
Do those flashy and pricey TV/radio ads from Ameritrade (AMTD) AMTD, +1.33% , E-Trade (EGRP) EGRP, +0.04% , Brown & Co. and others really work? Oh, because this is an 8 a.m. event at the Harvard Club in New York City, I also get to ask: Where are the donuts?
Donuts or IPOs?
Some online investors are asking: Where are the IPOs? E-Trade, for one, has tried to set itself apart by getting all of its customers a piece of high-flying initial public offerings, whether traders have $10,000 on deposit or $1 million. E-Trade and others are also making strides in the area of full service; they are starting to offer credit cards, money management accounts and other traditional Wall Street and Main Street services.
Still, Web Street is and always will be different from Wall Street and Main Street.
One San Francisco company, StockPower, this week said a new direct stock purchase plan will allow companies such as Home Depot (HD) HD, +0.21% and Compaq Computer (CPQ) cpq to sell stock directly to the public on the companies' Web sites.
StockPower said its technology lets companies "leverage their Web site and provide information, transaction capability and special affinity marketing programs to shareholders." The idea, the company says, is to identify a community of friendly investors on the Web, then deliver research and other materials via the Internet.
Back to the online brokerage seminar: executives next Tuesday will include Wit Capital CEO Robert H. Lessin, Credit Suisse First Boston e-commerce analyst Bill Burnham, Salomon Smith Barney research chief Mark F. Loehr, Fleet Financial-owned Quick & Reilly CEO Thomas C. Quick and strategic research director Frank V. Zammataro from Merrill Lynch.
Wit Capital, an electronic underwriter from New York City, has participated in 31 transactions that raised funds via the Internet, either in private placements or public offerings. Lessin told me the Internet "empowers the individual in the capital-raising process."
Lessin said Wit has relationships with more than 2 million Internet brokerage accounts. Wit Capital imposes what Lessin called "draconian" penalties on investors who "flip," or buy an IPO and sell it for a quick profit.
E-mail Jill Colt at Multex for more information on the Tuesday session.

Fragment of a discussion from User talk:Z-Rex
If you were allergic to all nuts, I would have told you to go fuck yourself. Straight up. Cashews are a great nut, and I'm sorry you're missing out on them, but it's cool I guess. Thanks.
Lol. I like almonds and pecans. I like regular cashews, even if they make me break out, but the butter I cannot stand. Kind of like how I hate strawberries, but love strawberry products.
I agree that cashew butter is not as great as it should be and I can sympathize with your sentiments.
I'm not very experienced with almond butter. I'll report back.

Morgan: Osborne's liberal Conservatism will be heard
Ex-Education Secretary Nicky Morgan has defended George Osborne's appointment as Evening Standard editor, warning cabinet ministers fired by Theresa May will have their "voices heard".
Mrs Morgan, who lost her job after Mrs May became PM, said sacked ministers are not just going to "disappear".
The rules on MPs taking second jobs are to be discussed by a government watchdog on ethical standards.
The committee will meet on Thursday in the wake of Mr Osborne's appointment.
But Mrs Morgan said if the Committee on Standards in Public Life is going to ban MPs from having outside jobs, "we're going to have to stop MPs being ministers".
'We will be heard'
She claimed Mr Osborne had been "a very good constituency MP while he was chancellor", which she described as "the ultimate second job", adding: "We want talented, interesting people to take on these big jobs."
But she told ITV's Robert Peston: "George is very much about being the voice of the liberal Conservative party. When you're fired as we all were last summer, what did they expect, the government? That we all just going to disappear?
"No, we are going to make our voices heard, whether it's me writing articles, whether it's George being editor of the Evening Standard.
"There's a liberal Conservatism point of view to be talked about and we're going to do that."
'Taking on too much'?
Former Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair also defended Mr Osborne's appointment, telling BBC One's Andrew Marr: "I don't know whether having those jobs is doable or not, but I think it is a great thing for the Evening Standard. Why not? He is a highly capable guy and it should make politics more interesting."

- George Osborne: From history buff to austerity editor
But Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson told the same show: "I thought well 'he's a better man than me' - because I spent 10 years as a journalist and six years as a politician and I'm not sure I could combine them both... so I'm not sure you can do both at the same time, if I'm honest."
Former Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg, who writes a column in the Evening Standard, told the BBC's Sunday Politics he had not spoken to Mr Osborne about his new role, but warned "he's taking a lot on".
"He's not only wanting to be an editor, he wants to continue being an MP in the north of England, to be a jet-setting academic in the United States, to earn a lot of money in the city... I suspect something will give.
"Even by George Osborne's self confident standards in his own abilities, I suspect he's taking on a little too much."
Labour MP Stephen Kinnock told ITV's Robert Peston: "When I first read this I thought it was fake news and sort of choked on my cornflakes.
"I think it's completely unsustainable. One of the worrying things is: 'will the Evening Standard become the propaganda arm of the Conservative Party?' Conflicts of interest all over the place."
But Conservative MP for Wimbledon, Stephen Hammond, defended Mr Osborne as "an extremely talented individual".
"I think it is a surprise to a lot of people, but against that, we in London need as many people in London to stand up for us as we can - and I think George will ensure that's true," he said
Mr Osborne also faces criticism for not getting Cabinet Office approval before taking the post.
More than 100 MPs currently declare additional employment, ranging from lawyers and doctors to farmers and dentists.
But Lord Bew, who chairs the committee, said it would discuss whether the rules needed to be changed following the announcement on Friday that Mr Osborne was going to edit London's free evening paper.
As well as being MP for Tatton, Cheshire, his latest job is in addition to his work as:
- An after-dinner speaker in the US
- Chairman of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership
- Adviser to fund management firm Blackrock
- A fellow at the McCain Institute
Lord Bew, whose committee advises the prime minister on ethical standards for people in public office, said of Mr Osborne's editorship: "We had something that, up to a degree, worked. It now seems to be getting into rockier waters.
"Unless someone sleeps two hours a night, that's the only way I can see how this is not [too much].
"This is not personal to George Osborne. But [his case] raises the issue of how much time MPs have to devote to their parliamentary work."
Polling suggests public attitudes have hardened against MPs taking second jobs - but there is also a desire for fewer career politicians. Since 2010, as a compromise, MPs have had to tell voters if they intend to hold a second job when elections are held.
But now, in light of Mr Osborne's workload, Lord Bew has told the BBC that his committee, which suggested that compromise, will later this week debate whether MPs should be allowed the option of a second job at all.
The editorship announcement also came before Mr Osborne had received approval from the Advisory Committee on Business Appointments, or Acoba.
The body, within the Cabinet Office, is responsible for approving jobs taken by former ministers up to two years after they leave office.
Labour MP and shadow minister Andrew Gwynne has written to John Manzoni, the permanent secretary to the Cabinet Office, urging him to examine whether there was a breach of the Ministerial Code of Conduct.

From chimps to chips: Organs on a chip for testing of pharmaceutical compounds
The pharmaceutical industry invests vast sums of money to develop new drug therapies for a variety of conditions. To take a drug from lab to clinic, both in vitro and in vivo models are deployed to prove efficacy, safety and kinetics. Organ on Chip technologies present an alternative to classic in vitro models and attempt to rival the capabilities of more established in vivo technologies. This presentation discusses the benefits, limitations and future of the technology. CN Bio develops microfluidic organ-on-a-chip platforms which permit a more physiologically relevant study of biology, pathology and drug responses in vitro, prior to human clinical trials.

You've probably guessed by now that this show is run by someone called Paul (that's him in the picture, at a wedding, but thinking he's on a GQ cover photo shoot).
Paul heads up our team here and is passionate about three things; NLP, fundraising and changing the world. Back in 2012, he found himself in a situation where he could have carried on doing what he'd always done - and get what he'd always got - or change, and finally feel more purposeful. Change he did, and one day found himself sat in a room listening to a man talk about NLP. He was transfixed - and life was about to change dramatically.
Over the next two years he threw himself into NLP and became a Practitioner, Master Practitioner and then, in July 2014, a fully-certified NLP Trainer. He decided to bring this magic to the world of Major Donor Fundraising, and hasn't looked back. Now, having trained hundreds of fundraisers with clients such as NSPCC, RNIB, Diabetes UK and Parkinson's UK, coupled with a decade's worth of experience as a Major Donor Fundraiser and Principal Gifts Manager, Paul finds himself in a unique position in the sector as the go-to trainer for teams looking for a unique and innovative approach to training and personal development.
Feel free to contact our office on 020 7649 9975 or Paul directly on 07751713461. We're also on social media if you'd like to connect with us that way - see the icons below.
P.S: 10 points if you can guess what was making Paul laugh in the photo…

Biometric signatures in healthcare with Rames Sarwat
March 17, 2016. "Public and private healthcare face the same challenges: improving patient care, reducing costs and increasing efficiency. In the first chapter of the ElevenPaths Talks, Rames Sarwat explains how to eliminate the use of paper when signing informed consent forms and how to increase automation in healthcare with biometric signatures. With this method, all users can create handwritten digital signatures on tablets simply and securely. Records are archived, certified and sealed in real time and the signee's calligraphic traits, speed details and pressure are taken into account. Watch the video now!
Handwritten biometric signatures make it possible to eliminate the use of paper when signing informed consent forms and other documents in healthcare centers. This technology offers legal security and major automation while removing the need for handling paper.
As a consequence, paper-elimination strategies can be implemented in healthcare centers, especially with regard to signing informed consent forms. In increasingly higher numbers, these documents generate the highest paper volume in healthcare centers and must be placed under custody as part of the patient's medical history.
Additionally, handwritten biometric signatures can be used for other purposes in healthcare settings such as signing employment agreements or signing personal data transfer documents.
Patients only need to sign on a signature capture device with a touchscreen and a digital ink pen. This device will convert the handwritten signature into a biometric system by capturing certain parameters such as the position, speed, acceleration and pressure applied at every point of the signature. These parameters are captured, unequivocally linked to the document and encrypted to ensure the custody of electronic evidence in the eventuality of legal proceedings. The result is a valid piece of electronic evidence.

Asterisk at Society6
Based on a vintage plastic bag design from the Buffalo & Erie County Library in Buffalo, New York, this design is available in two versions; with the light border that was featured on the original plastic bag that resembles a Polaroid photo, and one without.
Originally I was only going to make a replica of the original design with the border, but after removing it, I actually like the version without it better. You can click the images below to check out both versions, Asterisk and Asterisk Instant, and leave some comments about which you like better.
The Misguided Vindication of Roy Hobbs
The Washington Post recently published a piece in their Speaking of Science section that claimed science has finally and definitively proved the superiority of the double space after a period.
The late Roy Hobbs, who we've written about before, would have rejoiced at this headline if he wasn't dead (and fictional), and subscribed to the print edition of the Washington Post, as this would be the only way he'd hear the good news. Let's face it, he wouldn't have owned a computer or tablet or smart phone in order to read it online, a fact he would proudly boast about as if his intentional ignorance towards technology and an evolving world in general was a badge of honor or sign of superior character.
"One space between each sentence, they said. Science just proved them wrong," read the headline that Roy would have cut out of his newspaper and mimeographed so he could mail out copies to his grandchildren.
But the devil is in the details and with all those extra spaces between sentences, and Roy's glaucoma, he'd probably tire out and stop reading before the revelation in the article itself that the study barely proved anything at all. At the very most, it proved that those who already double space (and playfully shout at friends over the landline in their kitchen, "will until it's pried from my cold dead fingers") are faster readers only by milliseconds when double spaces are used. And that is the only measurable benefit. Reading comprehension is not effected at all. But when was comprehending anything actually important?
"Reading speed only improved marginally, the paper found, and only for the 21 "two-spacers," who naturally typed with two spaces between sentences. The majority of one-spacers, on the other hand, read at pretty much the same speed either way. And reading comprehension was unaffected for everyone, regardless of how many spaces followed a period."
So science proved two spaces are better for people who already double space and refuse to evolve. Groundbreaking.
This kind of regressive scientific study doesn't come cheap though, so that's why the estate of Roy Hobbs is asking for your help to keep the march of progress from taking even one step further. For a limited time you can support a cause dear to Roy's heart by purchasing your very own "Make America Double Spaced Again." hat.
Village Green Bookstore
Village Green Bookstore opened in 1972 in a 600-square-foot basement store at 766 Monroe Avenue in Rochester, New York, before its reputation among the community's book lovers spread and it expanded into the larger storefront upstairs.
The store had a coffee bar before they became common in bookstores and despite starting out by selling only the local Sunday edition, would offer more than 100 newspapers and 2,400 magazines. Eventually, while books were still a staple of the business, they became lost behind their rapidly expanding merchandise line.
By 1992, Village Green had added as many as eight new stores throughout Central and Western New York, including locations at 1089 Niagara Falls Boulevard in Amherst and 765 Elmwood Avenue in the Elmwood Village. But the growth for the company had become troublesome. Hoping to solve their financial problems, the chain continued to expand locations and product offerings. In doing so, as tends to happen when a company forces growth in order to dominate the market, Village Green forgot their purpose and mission. The company had forgotten what one of the founders, John Borek, had said not long after opening; their intention was to cater to "people who were hungry for books." Instead, they were selling ice cream and inflatable bagels.
Within a few years they had added stores in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, but with a series of catastrophic financial decisions that involved lawsuits, criminal charges and SEC investigations, the company began closing "underperforming" stores, including a third location in Western New York, in the McKinley Plaza in Blasdell. The closures and merchandise sell offs could not keep the company afloat however and in 1998 they had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
The following year, the flagship store on Monroe closed it doors for good, eventually becoming a Pizza Hut.

Even before Wynn debuted Intrigue, its latest spin on Las Vegas nightlife, there was much buzz about its secretive club-within-the-club, a private enclave lined with white liquor lockers made from stitched leather trunks and a DJ booth stacked with more than 1,000 vintage vinyl records. The chic space—social-media free—captivated partiers' imaginations before anyone even got a glimpse of it.
Now that our initial exploration of the club is complete—its celebrity-packed opening was April 28—it's become clear that the hidden room is just one of several Intrigue spaces that have their own intimate, luxurious vibe. We can't seem to stay away from the new bar carved into the mountainside adjacent to the 94-foot waterfall, a refreshing spot along the 1,183-square-foot patio dressed in white decking and extravagant lighting. Here, you can catch the pyro show, dance or just relax near the cascading waterfall. Combine the bar's advanced mixology offerings—not something you find in many nightclubs on the Strip—with the fact that no one does versatile, enchanting indoor-outdoor design like the Wynn team, and it's easy to understand why this space has quickly become a favorite. Intrigue at Wynn, Thursday-Saturday 10:30 p.m.-4 a.m., 702-770-7300.

To Thomas Jefferson from Edmund Randolph, 5 September 1793
From Edmund Randolph
German Town Sepr. 5. 1793.
The interruption, which the contagious disorder now prevailing in Philadelphia, has given to my residence there, is the cause of the delay, which has occurred in my examination of Mr. Hammonds last memorial on Pagan's case.
I beg leave to refer you to my former communications on this head; that I may not repeat them here unnecessarily.
It is true, that I considered an application to the Supreme fœderal court, indispensable; and that it has been unsuccessful. Whether it was pressed in the most advantageous form, I undertake not to decide; but while I shall ever acknowledge the abilities and integrity of Pagan's counsel, I still adhere to my former representation.
It is no less true, that the refusal of a writ of error1 evinced the sense of the judges, that the case was not of a nature susceptible of relief by process of law,2 issuing from the Supreme court of the U. S.
It is then reduced to its original State; namely, a question began in the courts of Massachusetts, where it has run thro' all the forms of proceeding, and has been decided against a British Subject. He complains of injustice; but of no conduct in the judges3 founded on impure motives. To this point my quotation from the argument4 on the Silesia loan is applied; and farther I must remark, that5 if the judges have erred, and there be an appeal, it is the business of Mr. Pagan to appeal; if there be no appeal according to the laws of Massachusetts, no fœderal authority can give one,6 and therefore no relief can be had in our courts.
Such, sir, is the state of our jurisprudence with respect to this case; and as Mr. Hammond seems now to make it an affair of negotiation, upon the ground, that the American courts ought not to have assumed a jurisdiction over it, and that, if they might, the Armistice was misinterpreted, the subject is no longer7 within the Sphere of my office. If however you mean to discuss these two questions, and my aid can be useful, it is at your command. I have the honor &c

What is Google Form?
Forms are crucial and a must-have tool for running a business online. Google Forms is one of the Google apps suites that help you to quickly create a free online form for any purpose. It is easy to operate and packed with robust features. The form can also be shared across the internet by link, email or even embed on the website. Every response can automatically record to Google Spreadsheet.
Different between Google Form and others WordPress Form Plugins
WordPress has a bunch of form builder plugins available in their plugin repository. Most of the plugins can directly record the form's response to WordPress admin area, which is convenient. However, there will be a time that you need to gather response from different channels such as Facebook, Instagram, and even direct link. The WordPress form plugin wouldn't be the best option to gather data from multiple channels. That's when Google Form comes in.
How to Embed Google Form in WordPress
First of all, go to a Google Form website. Create a new form, if you haven't already had one.
Create a Google Form
You can either choose from templates or build your own by clicking the Blank under the Plus Icon
Make sure you fill in the necessary information such as title and description.
I'll add couple more form fields by clicking on the Add New Form Field for testing purposes.
Get Embed Code
After you have completed building your form, find a Send button on the top right corner and click on it.
The send form popup windows will appear
Locate the Bracket icon and click
You will then get the form HTML embeddable code with width and height configurations.
Click Copy and head back to your WordPress admin area
Add to WordPress Post or Page
When you're back at WordPress admin area go to a specific post or page that you wish to embed Google Form.
On the editing page, locate a Text tab in your editor

Dog From the Left
I completed this project in June, '08. It was part of a fund-raising activity supporting our local animal shelter, the Friends of Strays. Many artists submitted designs for painting a fiberglas dog or cat, and mine was sponsored by the Prairie Art Center in Princeton, IL.
Forming the Cape
I used to teach plastics in the graduate school at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, and used fiberglas laminations (many, many laminations…), epoxy pastes, acrylic modeling paste, two-component urethane resins, and commercial auto body fillers to build the forms that I attached to the dog I was given.
Laminations sealed; Underpainting started
The idea came from trying to attach the name of an artist to the fact of the dog. I realized one morning that a simple "g" could change Leonardo da Vinci (shamelessly, on my part) into Leonardog.
I used Golden Acrylics (which I had never worked with before, and found very difficult at first because they do not use the traditional primaries) (but they prooved marvelously strong and dense paints), and a UV block.
More Painting
I had added various Renaissance touches using epoxy paste and more fiberglas - the boots, cuffs, the cap. Then put the color spectrum on his tail.
Lace Laminated
There's even a bit of lace at his neck, which came from my great-aunt, and is a true antique, but it was the middle of the night and I needed something…
Front Paws
I used epoxy paste and fiberglas to build the cuffs and nails before I painted them. (Much sawing, carving, and grinding..)
The Paintbrush Attached
I used a long drill to make both holes at once, and then inserted an old paint brush, and sealed it all up with epoxy paste.
The Base
I used my scroll saw to cut the palette from a piece of mahogany, then sanded, stained, and urethaned it. I made separate fiberglas cloth lumps to use for each of the paint clumps, attached them with more fiberglas resin to the palette, then painted and sealed each of them. I painted to base to look a little like (I hoped) Florentine cobblestones, c. 1500. Then glued it all together. Before I placed the paint spots I needed to work out where the dog's feet would fall.
Feet on the Base
The feet attached..
The Face
I grew very fond of this dog, in painting him. It had started out as a sort of merry joke, but something happened during those over a hundred hours of work. I wanted him to look thoughtful, and to convey that quality which one so often senses in talking with creative people, that his mind and attention were a little bit elsewhere, on something that I could not yet see, but he was listening to.
Me and My Dog
Leonardog was on display through the summer of 2008 at the Prairie Art Center, and was then auctioned at the fund-raising event. He now lives in Chicago, beside a column in the entrance hall of an apartment on State Street.

When I drive through the country side or through a neighborhood, I am usually checking out people's property. I admire some things but other things I would change. It is fun to think about what I could have by mimicking what other people have done. It is also fun to put a stake in the ground and say what I would not tolerate. One thing that I consistently like is the external garage. I imagine I get all excited about garages because they represent a place where big boy toys can be kept. Fun things like all-terrain vehicles, boats, and motorcycles. It also represents a place to go to work on cleaning and improving these things. I am task oriented and I also like to keep good care of what I own. Some day I would like to have an external garage built. I think it add value to the property and gives options.

We teach a very traditional style of Taekwon-do for ages 6 years upwards and this is split into junior and senior classes. We believe that self defence is a priority but also teach the benefits of confidence, self esteem and discipline.
For details about our sessions then take a look at our classes page or please get in touch if you require further information.
What is Taekwon-Do?
Taekwon-Do is an ancient Korean martial art, a form of unarmed self-defence. It is also a philosophy of self-restraint, kindness and humility. It is not a competitive sport but rather an art that ultimately becomes a way of life for its practitioners. The "Do" portion of the term Taekwon-Do means "the way" or, more fully, "the way to enlightenment, self-realisation and understanding".
Check out our Terminology page
What is traditional Taekwon-Do?
Taekwon-Do as practised by the International Taekwon-Do Federation it is the authentic form of Taekwon-Do as originated by the founder General Choi Hong Hi. It differs from "modernised" forms of martial arts in several important ways. The emphasis is on each student's personal self-improvement rather than on competition with others. There is no full contact in free sparring.
Who can study Taekwon-do?
Anyone! Men, women, children, young and old can study traditional Taekwon-Do. Everyone works at his or her own level of intensity as appropriate to his or her fitness level.
What does Taekwon-Do offer?
Through vigorous exercise, Taekwon-Do develops physical and mental strength. The training and exercises involve movement of the entire body promoting good health, fitness, flexibility and an increased feeling of wellbeing. In addition to providing the stress reduction benefits found in aerobic exercise and sport and aiding relaxation, Taekwon-Do also promotes:
- Mental discipline – the development of a strong mind, enables increased focus and concentration in all aspects of life.
- Physical fitness – Taekwon-do training involves movement of the entire body, promoting good health and fitness. Your cardiovascular health will improve along with your co-ordination, speed, strength and flexibility. The training also provides the opportunity for family members of different ages and physical abilities to participate in the same activity.
- Self-confidence develops as a direct result of working toward and achieving personal goals, mastering skills and seeing continuous improvement leading to inner strength that aids in all aspects of life, including the ability to defend oneself. Many parents have reported improved school grades after their children take up Taekwon-do.
- Stress reduction – today's stressful world affects us all. When stress builds up over time it can cause or exacerbate illness. The physical and mental workout leaves the Taekwon-Do student feeling relaxed and peaceful after practice.
I believe when a student fails, I do too. If they succeed then I have been successful.
I have been very fortunate in my training as I started in Boxing which led me to Taekwon-do and this also gave me a taste of Kickboxing and combat art.
I had fantastic instructors during my martial arts career.
I have learnt that the more experience you gain as an instructor the less you should get set in your ways and be prepared to develop constantly.
I like to try to be part of the continuous evolution of Martial Arts. I think Martial Arts should be the reflection of the demands made on it, wherever it may be in the world.
I am lucky to have a diverse and varied team of black belts with me, who have an experience in areas from Full Contact, Ju-Jitsu and Grappling, that allows a constant fresh approach to my teaching.
Every day I am developing and strengthening my teaching in my classes.
My Black Belts are made up of men, women and children who all understand that training should be fun and challenging as well as giving respect and delivering results.

I've been vulnerable lately.
Words even can't express my feeling.
Perhaps Shiina Ringo & Tokyo Jihen songs would help illustrating how those feelings adorn inside.
Their singles relate to many parts of my life..
It helps to express mine.
Maybe it will also entertain you...
Les Adultes Terribles
I am a HUGE fan of Shiina Ringo-san and Tokyo Jihen. Been listening to them since 10 years ago and can't wait to hear more of their masterpiece. There are (still) more of their fabs songs in the net, unfortunately not all songs are having their own video on Youtube and EMI Music Japan is likely so restricted in preserve their copyright. Anyhow, I will update later and don't forget to try listening them for more *promote*.
FYI: Currently TJ & SR already had their official YOUTUBE page, you can check Tokyo Jihen Youtube Page and Shiina Ringo Youtube Page.
