Should all patients be asked about their sexual orientation?BMJ 2018; 360 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.k52 (Published 17 January 2018) Cite this as: BMJ 2018;360:k52
All rapid responses
Wouldn't a reasonable compromise be for this data to be collected by reception, thereby bypassing doctors entirely? This could be done by including a sexual orientation section on new patient registration forms or handing out a slip of paper to patients coming for an appointment. This would allow for doctors to better accommodate the needs of high risk groups like MSMs without alienating patients who may be uncomfortable with being asked.

Dear Colleagues,
In my practice, I see a lot of girls and young women.
Provided that I acquire consent for elaborate medical history investigation of previous vaginal infections, mood swings, OC use, alcohol intake, drug use, smoking, sleeping, biochemical tests, which additional useful clinical information shall I obtain by asking if they are lesbians or not?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

Re: Should all patients be asked about their sexual orientation? Reply to Mr M T Wilkinson's response (21 Jan)
"By asking all patients about their sexual orientation, we offer an opportunity for LGB patents to share an important aspect of their identity with us that they may not have felt abke previously"..
Where it is relevant, the competent doctor is able to ask the relevant question or questions.
And, pray, what exactly do you mean by this phrase? Kindly elucidate.
" ONS research....such as ethnicity".
And could you please define ethnicity?
(Sadly Sir Julian Huxley popularised the use of this word).
" .........patients with different sexualities are treated differently....."
Of course. The treatment will, or should, depend on the aetiology of the condition or conditions we are seeking to treat, bearing in mind that we have in front of us, a specimen of Homo sapiens of numerous genes, numerous exoeriences, numerous thoughts, all interplaying. And what we say or do to the patient, will enter the patient's thought processes, his personality,
" ........we desperately need data to assess the extent of homophobia and discrimination within the NHS."
This is not a patient oriented approach. This is a computer print-out approach.
Please stop wasting money on data collection.
Please get on with looking after the patient in front of you.

Dr Ma tells us that people don't mind being asked about their "ethnicity". I do and I refuse point blank to pigeon-hole myself.
I would also like to inform Dr Ma that the term ETHNICITY means different things to different people. And therefore it means nothing.
As for sexual orientation. Again I refuse to answer the question. At the age of nearly 85 and with no desire to engage in copulation or fore-play or even flirting, I say to the searchers, researchers, tick-boxers:
Keep out of my sight.
Competing interests: I hate being asked unnecessary questions by anyone.
I agree with the author that great health benefits can be achieved by knowing a patient's sexuality when offered voluntarily - however patients rarely have the opportunity to volunteer their sexuality in a consultation, and for LGB people this can leave them feeling uncomfortable and misunderstood by their physician. By asking all patients about their sexual orientation, we offer an opportunity for LGB patients to share an important aspect of their identity with us that they may not have felt able to previously.
Much of the author's objection to sexual orientation monitoring seems to rest on the idea that the general population will be offended or uncomfortable with being asked about their sexuality. However, a GP practice in Greater Manchester that implemented SOM in 2012 found that 95% of patients were happy to have their sexual orientation recorded on their medical file, and 98% understood the importance of collecting this information (1). ONS research has shown asking about sexuality is broadly as acceptable as asking other monitoring questions, such as ethnicity (2).
Therefore, I think we must consider that a major barrier to sexual orientation monitoring is not that it makes the patient uncomfortable, but rather that the doctor feels too uncomfortable or embarrassed to ask about sexuality. This is a rather doctor-centred approach to the consultation, and as already acknowledged in order to achieve good medical practice we should be focusing on the needs of the patient. In the spirit of patient-centred communication, in the minority of patients that may express discomfort, explaining to them the importance of sexual orientation monitoring should assuage their concerns – the LGBT+ Foundation's Good Practice Guide has some excellent examples (1).
I think it is also important to recognise that there are many opportunities to collect information about sexual orientation, and that a healthcare worker needn't open every consultation by asking about sexuality. The information can be collected upon registration, in a self-complete questionnaire with other demographic data, or at a relevant point in the consultation. Taking the patients mentioned above as examples, it would be extremely relevant to ask the 17-year-old about their sexual orientation as part of a sexual history, given the prevalence of sexually transmitted infections in their age group. For the 70-year-old, assuming the information hadn't already been collected over the preceding 35 years, it would be particularly pertinent as part of a social history given older LGBT adults more likely to live alone, and may struggle nominating someone to make end of life decisions (3).
The author very rightly asks if there is any good evidence that patients with different sexualities are treated differently – the Stonewall report 'Unhealthy Attitudes' (4) found that 25% of NHS staff have heard colleagues using homophobic language in the last 5 years, whilst 10% of staff think LGB people can be 'cured' using conversion therapy; so we know that there is prejudice within our health service. But how do we measure whether LGBT patients are treated differently if we don't know who they are? One of the most pressing reasons to implement sexual orientation monitoring is that we desperately need this data in order to assess the extent of homophobia and discrimination within the NHS.
In order to achieve the best care for our patients, it is important to have a holistic view of them as a person, and that includes sexuality which is an important aspect of a person's identity. It affects someone's social circumstances, their risk of mental health problems, their use of alcohol, drugs and cigarettes, their sexual health, and access to healthcare - and that could just be the tip of the iceberg. Only by collecting data on sexual orientation will we be able to explore this further.

Sample Itineraries
The following is a sample three-day itinerary for a girls' getaway weekend. For an itinerary customized to your specific interests, please contact our Concierge.
Make it a weekend to remember with our luxurious Girlfriends' Getaway Package.
Day 1 – Shop 'Til You Drop
- Start your day off as a local would, fueling up for the busy day ahead with delicious Migas Tacos from Veracruz al Natural.
- Spend the afternoon popping in and out of the shops on South Congress Avenue, fondly known as SoCo. A stop at HopDoddy for lunch is a must; brave the line and you'll enjoy some of the best burgers, fries and shakes the city has to offer. After lunch, head next door to browse the stylish baubles at Kendra Scott's eponymous jewelry boutique, founded in Austin in 2002.
- One can never have too many tacos, so kick off your evening with dinner on the front lawn at Licha's Cantina. Though located in the heart of trendy East Austin, the restaurant is anything but fancy or upscale, providing a relaxed ambiance along with top-notch interior Mexican food and drinks.
- Round out the evening with live music and dancing at The White Horse, an East side honky-tonk that bills itself as the "Champagne of bars." If your group has any steam left, check out a few of the casual hipster bars on East Sixth Street such as Whislers or Liberty, both of which have Asian-inspired food trucks parked in the back for late-night snacking.
Day 2 – Sip, Sip Hooray
- Load up with a hearty breakfast at Counter Cafe, a diner-like spot in East Austin serving fresh, local and organic food. You'll be glad you did when you have a tummy full of wine later!
- With so many great wineries to choose from in the Hill Country, you'll likely want to leave the driving to someone else. For the ultimate convenience, ask the Concierge to arrange for a Mercedes Sprinter party bus to pick up your group from Counter Café (or another location). You'll be whisked from winery to winery ensconced in luxury, with your only task to sip the day away in the picturesque Texas Hill Country.
- Craft beer more your style? The Hill Country is also a burgeoning beer lovers' paradise with nearly 20 breweries, many of which offer tastings, tours and a tranquil setting for lunch along the way.
- Since you're in the area, enjoy dinner at the much "buzzed" about Apis Restaurant and Apiary in Spicewood. After filling up on the restaurant's delicious New American cuisine, be sure to grab a sweet souvenir for friends back home from the adjacent honey shop.
- Rest up on the ride home so that you have enough energy for a quick trip to Rainey Street. Featuring old bungalows converted into uniquely Austin bars, Rainey Street is just a few blocks from the Hotel making it an easy spot to end your evening.
Day 3 – Cheers to a Little Pampering
- Up and at 'em! Start Sunday right with our restaurant's all-you-can-eat brunch, complete with USD 1 mimosas and Bloody Marys.
- Wind down the weekend with a relaxing, Austin-inspired massage, body treatment or facial in the Spa.
- Toast the end of a wonderful getaway with dinner at Eberly, one of Austin's hottest restaurants. With its contemporary American cuisine, cozy dining room and stunning rooftop bar, you won't want to leave the sexy space. Luckily, you don't have to. The perfect nightcap can be found one floor below at The Cedar Tavern, featuring modern cocktails served up on a historic 150-year-old mahogany bar.

The first Monday after the holidays is rough… Although we may be fully recovered from New Year's, getting back to business as usual can be a challenge. That's why there's no better way to distract ourselves (or procrastinate) than by ogling some new makeup, and NARS' new limited-edition Eye-Opening Act collection is now available at Nordstrom!
This collection may only include four products, but I think you'll want each and every one of them. The new Multiple is an all-over treat, and the champagne shade is perfect for brightening up the eyes and highlighting. There are also two palettes to choose from, and each features six wearable shades, including one or two that can double as liner.
But I'm especially excited about the Velvet Shadow Sticks. Available in five deep shades, these pencils serve up super-blendable matte pigment, making them a great accessory for any of the many neutral shadows you already own. Once I get my hands on one, I'll be sure to report back about the best way to use them!
Oh, and this is the first of three Spring collections fronted by Tilda Swinton… How amazing does she look???

Nicole Barralet | Personal | Out in the Switch | 3rd March 2010
Why is it that when the weather is bleak and dreary, that sometimes our moods can totally reflect that? Yesterday I had one of those days. The weather was rainy and a little bit depressing and I had just one of those days that nothing I could do or say was going to get me out of that mood. I don't know what it was. I was c.r.a.n.k.y.. Not cranky at anyone or anything in particular… I think that I had just had enough, I just wanted to curl up under a doonah , eat chocolate and read a trashy magazine… so I did.. Did it make me feel better? Well yes, but I was still cranky. The only thing that helped was going to bed and waking up this morning. Well its still raining, but for some reason I am in much better spirits. I am a glass half full kind of a girl, so when I saw it was raining (again) I decided to take advantage of it, and get some more photographs. I haven't taken photos like this in such a long time. I admit, I lost my motivation. But my recent freedom from employment has help changed my mantra.. and here I am back in the full swing of things… enjoy these raining day shots..
"Rain usually makes me feel mellow. Curl up in the corner time, slow down, smell the furniture. Today it just makes me feel wet." – Jeff Melvoin

I love how the rain really enhances the colours of the plants. I think everything looks more vibrant and more photogenic after the rain.
This must be one of the world's largest grasshoppers. Grasshoppers are everywhere at the moment and driving me insane eating my herb garden and all of the plants in the garden. This one had decided that my car was a nice place to hang out while it was raining cats and dogs..
I love these last two photos. The first one reminds me of a dreamy secret garden. The other photo is a close up of a sculpture I created back in high school. I love how the mirror reflects the surroundings.

Mike's Carp Candy
crayfish orange is another nice color Recipe Hook: Tiemco 200R, sizes 8-12 Thread: 3/0 for eyes, 6/0 for fly, color to match body Eyes: small bead-chain (2.4 mm) Tail: rabbit guard hair Body: Kaufmann style stonefly dubbing, crawdub dubbing Rib: medium vinyl rib Legs: rabbit guard hair, tied beard style the original in olive Tying Instructions Secure bead-chain eyes to hook and cement thoroughly. Prepare 6-12 hooks with eyes at a time to streamline the process. Tie on rabbit for tail, pulling out most of the fluffy hair close to the skin to reduce bulk, make tail about as long as the shank length. Attach vinyl rib to the back side of the hook shank with the curved side bound on the shank. Build the body of the fly. This type of coarse dubbing will not wind tightly on the thread, this creates its buggy look. Dub to the eyes, then wind the rib 5-6 times to bind down the shaggy dubbing. Secure ribbing. Invert fly in vice, or rotate 180 degrees and attach legs. Keep legs shorter, to about the hook point. Wrap thread around eyes, then make a small 5-10 wrap head in front of eyes and whip finish. Cement the head. Pick out fibers or trim body if needed. The Story I have been fascinated by the effects created by Randall Kaufmann's stonefly blends of dubbing material. When you hold the material closely, the angora goat fibers seem to glow in the light, creating highlights and movement. Multiple colors of goat are blended with rabbit hair and different shades of sparkling antron to grab the coarser fibers making it easier to dub. I started using this dubbing material as a substitute for marabou on damselfly nymph patterns. Float tubing in Douglas County Fishing Lake, these flies produced well during the damselfly hatches in June and August. My first channel catfish was caught using it, slowing sinking them under the feeders before the pellets would rain down on the waiting carp and cats. Olive was the first logical color choice, then rust, then black. It seemed like the only fly I used last season was a black size 8 or 12 carp candy, this color really produced for me in stained water. Several features make this a productive fly: it fishes inverted in the water like a bonefish pattern, causing fewer snagging issues; the heavy vinyl rib makes it swim horizontally in the water; they are very durable and easy to tie. The list of species it has caught keeps growing each season but to date, longnose gar, goldeye, gizzard shad, golden shiners, common carp, grass carp, bighead carp!!!, smallmouth buffalo, bigmouth buffalo, walleye, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, channel catfish, flathead catfish, assorted panfish, white bass, wipers, freshwater drum, even a Taneycomo rainbow trout, has fallen for it. Fishing Technique The most fun you can have with your waders on is sight casting to a feeding pod of mudding carp. Cast several feet in front of the lead fish, let the fly sink to just above the bottom, then strip the fly 6-12 inches. Most actively feeding fish will nail it between pauses. If it's a good size fish, get it on the reel as soon as you can. Prepare to see your backing zoom out the rod tip. Can't see the fish, but suspect they are there? Prospect with it using the same strip-pause-strip technique. While not as fun, it will catch a few fish that you didn't see. Use strong tippet material between 6-10 pound test rating. Take your time tying it on with a knot that you are comfortable with, it will be tested by even an average size carp. Tight lines, Cyprinus

Irish state spend millions on compensation claims – 02/04/2017Members of the public are pursuing compensation claims against the sate to such a degree that the Irish government has announced it has earmarked €500 million to pay them off.
The country's State Claims Agency (SCA) has also announced that is currently handling 4,000 legal actions, with a third dedicated to medical negligence.
Over the past five years alone, 782 clinical negligence cases which have caused a cost of €21 million, or around €26,854 each.
During that same period, 3,485 public liability, employer's liability or property damage cases were settled for €10,473 each, or a total of €36.5 million.
The SCA is responsible for the management of personal injury and property damage claims against the State and of the underlying risks. When performing these functions, SCA is known as the NTMA.
The SCA has two main objectives; to manage claims so as to ensure that the State's liability and associated legal and other expenses are contained at the lowest achievable level; and to provide risk advisory services to State authorities with the aim of reducing over time the frequency and severity of claims.

Features of common holiday
Chairman of Supreme State Council of Union State, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko, congratulates Belarusians and Russians on Day of Unity of Peoples of Belarus and Russia
In his congratulation, Mr. Lukashenko noted that Unity Day occupies a special place among the many public holidays in the year. The greeting reads: 'It comes from the will of our brotherly nations to unite efforts and jointly create our future. It is deeply symbolic that, against the background of 1990s centrifugal tendencies within the whole post-Soviet space, only we — Belarusians and Russians — have managed to lay the foundations of unity on a new historical stage, overcoming massive external pressure. Since that time, our countries have come a long way; Belarusian-Russian integration has been successfully implemented in contemporary large-scale projects, such as the Customs Union and the Common Economic Space. It will guide us towards our next goal — the Eurasian Union. We'll create new organisational forms and a further level of integration; however, the historical decision of our nations — adopted 17 years ago — will remain the foundation of these processes.'
The President of Belarus notes that bilateral trade now exceeds $43bn. His greeting continues: 'We're jointly building a nuclear power station and mastering space together, while efficiently uniting our potential in the sphere of science. We're implementing joint projects across various branches — from industry and agriculture to education and social services. We're systematically co-operating in the spheres of foreign and defence policy so, despite new threats and instability worldwide, we can look confidently to the future. Most vitally, citizens of our states don't feel like foreign aliens in Belarus or Russia'.
Mr. Lukashenko believes that further rapprochement is essential in today's world, emphasising: 'The results of the session of the Supreme State Council of the Union State have confirmed our readiness to continue developing this integration. We'll clearly determine its renewed priorities and will fix concrete goals, to make the Union State even more efficient in promoting the well-being of our people. I'm convinced that joint, purposeful work is the way to fully realising our existing potential, ensuring the competitiveness of our national economies and sustainable growth, while guaranteeing a worthy standing of living. I'm confident that the heartfelt aspiration of our people for joint dynamic development will be successfully brought to life'.
Mr. Lukashenko wishes all Belarusians and Russians health, happiness and prosperity. His greeting ends: 'May our countries' inviolable, strategic partnerships grow ever stronger!'

Where free software and peer-review software differ
Here is the place to leave comments about that essay.

If we are talking about GPL'd software, you can sell it at any price, but the source code must be available free of charge at least until 3 years after the release of the software built on it, AFAIK.
That does'nt sound like quite a big deal on computers, where a skilled user could build the software from source and then offer it for free. It gets completely different on platforms where the user is rarely able to build the software from source for that platform (like in mobile platforms).

Hi ssorgatem.
I don't understand your comment. My point is that if you believe that assess to the source code is an essential part of peer review in science, then you almost certainly believe that it should be available for some low cost, if not no cost. The FSF asserts that part of the freedom in free software is the freedom to make money, and you should not be limited in the price you set for your software.
These two views are in opposition.
It has nothing to do with access to the source code (only to the purchaser, and only if not provided with the binary at the point of acquisition) after the sale, which seems to be what your comment is about.

The Recreation Vehicle Industry Association commissioned an Economic Impact Study on the RV industry, released on June 7, 2016. The study found that the RV industry contributes about $49.7 billion in economic output or 0.28 percent of the Gross Domestic Product. Through its production and distribution linkages, the industry impacts firms in 426 of the 440 sectors of the United States economy.
Nationwide, the industry is responsible for 216,170 jobs, both directly and inderectly, creating an economic impact of $37.5 billion. The full study results, along with each individual state and congressional district's economic impact is available on the website by clicking here .

Cruiser RV has implemented a targeted redesign of its ultralightweight Fun Finder and Shadow Cruiser travel trailers while launching a new fifth-wheel floorplan in its wide-body line of Stryker toy haulers.
Slated for introduction at the Sept. 18-22 Elkhart RV Open House, upgrades across all lines will include new exterior graphics, updated interior designs and state-of-the-art technology.
"Cruiser has made sweeping changes in several of its core laminated lines for 2018," says Chris Hermon, president of Heartland Recreational Vehicles LLC which acquired Howe, Indiana-based Cruiser RV in January 2015. "Upgrades are across-the-board, modernizing units with clean exterior styling while incorporating the latest product innovations and advancements in technology on the interior."
The new Fun Finder floorplans offer the convenience of sleeping up to 10 while still allowing for towing by half-ton trucks. The exterior features a new aggressive graphics package, high-gloss white fiberglass, and a two-tone painted front cap that sets off the brand's redesigned logo. The interior also received a facelift with solid-surface countertops and new LED lighting throughout that complements the redesigned dinettes and tri-fold sofas.
Offering 11 full-featured floorplans, Fun Finder remains aggressively priced and positioned to further grow market share in the highly-competitive ultralightweight segment.
The Shadow Cruiser, one of Cruiser RV's most popular models, has been equipped with a redesigned platinum fiberglass exterior, while also sporting a two-tone painted front cap and front LEDs to highlight the new logo. The interiors have been refreshed with upgraded furniture and new technology throughout.
Sturdy 5/8-inch tongue and groove plywood flooring is offered on all models, giving the coach a high-end look while providing lasting quality. For 2018, Shadow Cruiser includes floorplans ranging from 23 to 32 feet designed to accommodate couples and families.
Cruiser addresses the rapidly expanding toy hauler market with wholesale interior upgrades across the Stryker line while also adding the 39-foot triple slide STF3513 fifth-wheel that will debut at Open House.
The versatile Stryker fifth-wheel lineup is now comprised of three models offering at least 13 feet of garage space with durable tie downs located throughout and wardrobe slides in the master bedroom.
"The 13-foot garage meets a key trend in the toy hauler market by accommodating the popular four-seat side-by-side," General Manager Jay Mohamed says. "Our Stryker line is at the forefront in this growing market segment with features that stay in step with consumer demand."
The updated travel trailer offerings come standard with solid-surface countertops, residential raised panel hardwood cabinet doors and king beds in all models.
In addition to spotlighting Cruiser RV's 2018 model line, sales and technical experts will be on hand to provide tours of the units and answer questions.

I love the colour of your "wheels within wheels" blanket and can't wait to see the finished result.ReplyDelete
Just looking at your beautiful photos makes me miss crocheting! It's winter here and the cold makes my elbows hurt! It took me a whole year longer than expected to finish my daughter's afghan that was to be for her birthday... in 2013. It's heartbreaking! I haven't visited in a while! Glad I stopped by!ReplyDelete
love those wheels within wheels. I could perhaps manage a cushion, not sure about a whole blanket though!ReplyDelete
you had such a colourful week : beautiful!!!!!ReplyDelete
xxxxxx Ale
The wheels within wheels blanket is stunning, a real delight. Looking forward to seeing the end results. Beautiful photo of the rosellas I have been trying all week to capture birds on camera to no avail.ReplyDelete
I LOVE these colours! :)ReplyDelete

amazing week!
Love the blue/green wheels.ReplyDelete
What a colorful week!ReplyDelete
I do not think there is anything better than a sun warm fresh from the tree Apricot! My Aunt had a tree in my youth and we spent a few January's at her house eating bowls upon bowls of them. Once of those summers when when I learn to read a knitting and crochet pattern plus make pumpkin scones. Thank you for bringing back those lovely memories with your photo :)ReplyDelete
Great post and great photos. Like them. I follow you, could you follow back, pls. KissReplyDelete
A lovely array of things to be up to! Fresh from the tree fruit...yum! The birds here are not near as colorful but pose the same problem. Love the color combinations of those wheels! I imagine those washers went quick. A warm spell here at the moment so I'm outside doing projects that would normally wait till spring. Enjoy the season, whatever it may be! xReplyDelete
It's so cold and dreary here in the northeast part of the US that seeing those amazing colors, gorgeous birds, and wonderful fruit is such a treat! Where can I get the pattern for your heart washers?ReplyDelete
I've been attempting a spot of tapestry crochet thanks to your fantastic tutorials! Progress report on FB, I so want to master this technique to create some fair isle inspired designs. Your gorgeous pics have brought a little bit of sunshine to a rather grey and icy Scotland, thank you!!!ReplyDelete
Lovely, lovely, lovely images.....all that colour! Sometimes a bloggy break is a good thing :) xxxReplyDelete
Those face washers are gorgeous! It's nice to see your beautiful photos.ReplyDelete
beautiful photos, the flower is gorgeous, your crochet is beautiful, your colour choices for the wheels within wheels is so awesomeReplyDelete
Your colours and photos are to die for. You really do put colours together very well. I love coming over to your blog for a colour fix. As soon as my current blanket is finished I am going to make more of these wash cloths. Loved the few I've made so far.ReplyDelete
What such lovely pictures, the birds look beautiful, it's cheered up my morningxxReplyDelete
good job. I like your work. also my blog is a design blog. I follow you and joined your blog. I am waiting you for my blog. You will like it ... http://ciziyorumdikiyorum.blogspot.com.tr/ReplyDelete
Your blog is always just so colourful and cheery! Love it Julie! xxReplyDelete
- AnonymousJanuary 24, 2015 at 6:31 AM
I don't think I ever left a comment on your blog but today is the day! :)ReplyDelete
I've read your blog for about 2 years I think and I really really love to see what you're making and to see all the beautiful colours you use. Your stall at markets is a totally yummy! Wish I could go but it's too far from Denmark. ;) So I enjoy it this way instead.
Great pictures. As a Brit I am fascinated by rosellas( have actually seen them on a few visits to your lovely country). They always remind me of a child's painting: I can imagine a child painting a bird and colouring it with all the bright colours it loves.ReplyDelete
Thank you for taking the time to add your comment, I love to receive comments and read them all, even if I don't get around to responding to you, I am just not that organised!

Thinking about selling your home and not having the results you were expecting ? Maybe thinking about becoming a landlord for the first time ? Even though the housing recovery is underway it might be some time till your home sells or till you can break even. With many home owners being underwater, selling now is selling at a loss.
From February 2012 to February 2013, home prices posted their largest annual appreciation in the past 7 years. This was the largest year over year increase since March 2006. Corelogic, the company that produced the report, mentions that March year over year home prices should stay in line with February's record numbers.
As the American Real Estate Market continues to improve, information about the home buying process is important in getting the best possible deal for your home purchase or home sale. A new buyer or seller sometimes may have outdated information about the real estate market which can hurt them on closing day.
"We started out offering our best and final offer," stated Jon Moorman a software engineer who recently purchased a condo in the Jamaica Plain area of Boston. Previously Moorman began searching for a two bedroom condominium in Cambridge and Somerville. That search ended quickly as numerous home buyers were vying for the limited number of homes in the $300,000 to $500,000 home price range.
Southern California continued to have a strong home sales month in February. The area recorded its highest sales in the month of February with 15,945 home sold in the Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernandino, San Diego and Ventura counties. Although it was a .7 percentage point lower from January 2013, it was was still higher by 21% year over year for the month of February.

Creating the Perfect Vegetarian Meal Plan
Creating the Perfect Vegetarian Meal Plan
Far too many people think that meal planning is something only a select few individuals who have been specially trained can do. While creating a detailed vegetarian meal plan does require some knowledge to carry out properly, one does not need a degree in culinary arts to prepare delicious meals. Often all a person lacks is some instruction and the confidence to properly execute it. Only a small amount of help is needed to create a delicious and nutritious vegetarian meal plan. With a little help, meal planning becomes easy.
Many people are under the impression that vegetables and fruits are nothing but side garnishments to a meat dish, but this could not be further from the truth. In reality, fruits and vegetables are highly nutritious, delicious parts of a meal where meat is completely optional.
When it comes to meal planning, a lot of people simply assume that meat is a necessary component. However, a completely vegetarian meal plan is not only possible but also very doable for the average person.
Take a roast for example. For many people this involves a piece of beef coupled with onions, carrots, and potatoes. However, within the confines of a vegetarian meal plan this can be done without the beef, through either the use of substitute materials like tofu or through adding materials to create a fine stew. Even the introduction of cheese to a simple meal planning exercise of this type makes the meal sophisticated, healthier and often less expensive to create. An average person with an ordinary kitchen can do this without much difficulty and without spending time dealing with unnecessary details.
Meal planning can be challenging at times, but there is help available.
MealEasy.com is the first place a person should go if they desire an effective vegetarian meal plan. MealEasy separates each step into smaller steps to make the process simple enough to recreate. Meal planning can help a person used to consuming meats during meal time to creating and enjoying a vegetarian meal plan. This will help the transition for individuals who have had a hard time converting to an all vegetarian meal plan. MealEasy has over 1,500 chef-created dishes available on their Web site, which makes planning healthy and reasonably priced meals an option for anyone.
If interested in meal planning for a family or creating a a vegetarian meal plan for a new vegetarian, please visit MealEasy.com for more information.

Local government spending amounts to about 27% of all public spending. Local authorities spend the majority of this on providing schools, social services and maintaining roads, but they also provide many other services. Local government spending pays for many different types of local authority. These include county councils, district councils, London and Metropolitan authorities, and police and fire services.
Overall, local government spending is paid for by:-
A local council cannot finalise its budget plans until it knows:
When a local council knows these sums, it can calculate the amount it needs to collect from council tax.
At Staffordshire County Council, our process for setting our budget typically starts at least six months beforehand, and budgets are considered over a five year planning cycle.
Because much information is unknown at the time, these figures provide only an indication of how much future funding will become available.
Senior staff and members consider spending pressures in the previous Autumn. Cabinet then sets out initial guidelines in December/January when our provisional Government grant figures are received. Plans are refined in the new year, and the full budget is finally approved by Cabinet in February, and approved by Full County Council in the same month.

If you are stuck for thoughts on where to go for new riding gear…lost in the maze of stores and offers that are in all of the riding mags…well how about this a one stop shop for all of your clothing and biking needs…simply log on to Fowlers online shop and see what they have on offer at great prices to suit all needs. This year's new gear is waiting on-line for you at Fowlers online shop where you can see all the top of the range stock at reasonably priced prices. I was looking for a new set of leathers as the old stuff had seen better days…but the cost of a replacement set was extraordinary. I mean we all like good looking stuff and especially on a bike the best protection that you can get…but some of the stuff was just wrong. My motorcycle leathers had become very worn and I needed to buy a new set of boots as well. I went to Fowlers and bought a brilliant set of leathers and matching boots for a fraction of what I would have had to pay at other places.
The price ranges of bike leathers and other clothing items, especially Sidi motorcycle boots is going crazy. I mean I know that Kevlar is a very costly necessity now, but to be expected to pay nearly 2 grand for a full set is a bit much. Who can really find the money for that at the present time…not me at any rate.
However, i was searching through the internet and came across Fowlers who were offering a extensive choice of motorcycle clothing at very fair prices. The company label on the clothing is Rev'it and I had heard of them before. I knew that they had a name for quality so I had a look at what they had on offer.
I have never been a fan of shopping about and bargain hunting, clearly I would prefer things more affordable but I do not have the endurance to probe through all the shops, I leave that to the wife and get on with my biking.
The wife blogged a note to her buddies telling them to take a look at the sites to see what they thought…all biker chicks of course…but with the shopping instincts of hungry she tigers…Good stuff was the response and so I got a new pair of motor cycle boots whilst she gets the attractive biker leather gear…pity her butt is a bit on the big side…two cows had to die to make those trousers…I hope she doesn't get to read this!

I can sense the excitement from my Mom's voice as she told me over the phone that her school will be receiving 10 Units of Desktop PCs from a kind donor. My Mother is a head teacher in one of the public high school in Iriga City, Philippines. Before our call ended, she told me that she is now working with colleague to convert their mini library into computer laboratory as well.
When I went on vacation last December 2010, my mom asks me if I would like to pay her school a visit. She would also like me to check out her latest project. The computer laboratory… Who can resist such invitation?
The Desktop PCs are midrange which fits the need of an educational institution. It has MSoffice and encyclopedia installed and other educational software. It has a built in wireless modem which make it easier to network and connect to the internet. It would cost at least 30,000 pesos per unit on my estimate that time.
I ask her if the student enjoys using their new computer and she told me that sadly, the computer is gathering dust in the laboratory and she went on telling me some of the issues:
- Electricity, the supply or lack thereof. They have a generator but it is often used for special school occasion
- She don't have a computer teacher and even if she want to, the school can't afford it
- Some of the teacher are afraid in using the PCs, afraid that they might break it
Another sad news is that someone broke in on their school and have taken 2 units, that's the reason why she had to hire a security guard for the school.
That made me think so I told her that I may not be the right person for her first issue but I think I can do something about the second and third concerns. If she agree, I can give some computer lessons for her students while I'm on vacation. She agreed and I was able to become a pseudo computer teacher for a day.
I was planning to do it regularly each time I'm in Iriga however during my last visit, the students and even teacher are already on their Christmas break. Still, I would like to continue and looking at engaging the local officials in the community for my next vacation.
I highly encourage this to IT professionals, Teacher and students. Reach out to your local community and volunteer to teach/train them to be Computer and Technology literate for free
Topics that can be covered
- Computer Basics
- Parts of computers and how to take care of them
- How to operate the computer, switching on/off and launching applications/software
- Microsoft office and other productivity software
- Internet(browsers, websites, social network,etc)
- Gadgets(smartphones, tablet, etc)
Do you have the same project?Tell me your story?

First off, you're probably wondering what the difference is between a hardware profile and a device profile. Simply put, a hardware profile is what makes a device work (make and receive calls) by identifying it over the network using its unique 12 digit MAC address found on the device. A device profile determines how a device works (directories, buttons, etc.). The Hardware tab is used to manage all the MAC addresses on your system. They are then assigned to individual devices allowing them to function with Jive.
Note: You are not billed for storing hardware profiles. You are only billed for the devices to which they are assigned.
Hardware Settings
To access the settings for hardware, click Hardware in the left sidebar and then select the hardware you would like to configure.
Hardware Device
|Phone Type
Model of the device. This will be automatically set upon provisioning and is therefore optional for all phones except the Cisco 79XX series and Cyberdata paging devices.
Identifies the location of the device (for reference purposes only).
|Emergency Services Caller ID
Defines the caller ID used when calling emergency services.
Note: This setting overrides (only for emergency calls) the default caller ID and the caller ID selected for any line assigned to the device that is using the hardware profile.

Latinopia Event 2017 Building the Wall from Latinopia.com on Vimeo.
Since taking office as President of the United States, Donald Trump has been unsuccessful in his efforts to build a wall separating the United State s from Mexico. Juan Gonzalez, author of Reclaiming Gotham and co-host of Democracy Now, explains that Trump's approach ignores prevailing economic models seeking to break down barriers to commerce and ignores the contributions made by immigrants to the American economy.

She wants to make the downtown market a "destination."Reprinted from Emily Battle's blog: Frontburner
Meet Donna Leahy, Fredericksburg's newly hired manager for the downtown farmers' market. You should look for her face on market Saturdays starting next month, as she and the city's parks and recreation department try to enhance the farmers' market as a downtown draw.
Leahy comes to the part-time market manager job (funded by market vendor fees) from a background in historic preservation. She's a graduate of the University of Mary Washington's historic preservation program (with a second degree in accounting) and has worked for the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Historic Fredericksburg Foundation Inc.
Leahy is busy setting up farm visits, collecting vendor applications and otherwise preparing for the managed portion of the Fredericksburg market season to start in April.
"We're there for the vendors, to help them sell their product, and we're also there for the consumers, to give them opportunities to buy fresh and buy local," she said.
A few of the items on her plate this year:
- Helping eliminate the problem of not having cash on-hand when you want to go to the market. Fredericksburg has been approved for a state grant to purchase equipment that will allow consumers to use their debit or SNAP benefits cards to buy tokens to redeem with market vendors. Additional grant money will allow SNAP recipients to get up to $10 a week in matching funds for use at the market. This program first came to our area two years ago at the Spotsylvania market. Read our story about it here.
- Helping market customers have a better idea of what they're buying. Market rules dictate that goods for sale must be grown or produced within a 75-mile radius of the market. Vendors are allowed to offer out-of-area produce for sale, but they must be pre-approved and clearly labeled. Leahy said she hopes to step up enforcement of these rules this year, both to protect customers and vendors. She is scheduling visits to farms that sell at the market to get a feel for what they have the capacity to grow.
- Getting a better understanding of how Fredericksburg uses its farmers' market. You probably won't see too many dramatic changes at the market this year. Leahy and Wendy Stone, the parks department's manager of finance and leisure services, are hoping to gather data on when the market is busiest, what kind of product mix folks are looking for and other information to help them guide its development in the future.
- Better promoting the market as a downtown asset. Look for a new market website in the coming weeks. In addition, Leahy and Stone are working with the city's economic development department on an August event focused on introducing families with children to downtown's food offerings, with the market as a centerpiece.
Look for more on our area farmers' markets in the paper in the coming weeks and on this blog. Emily Battle, Frontburner

I love this Manish Arora Spring RTW 09 merry-go-round dress Katy Perry wore at the MTV EMAs. It's a piece of art.
It's probably not very wearable though, I can't imagine how one sits down wearing this. Ah well, it's pretty to look at anyway.

BRITISH WW1 NEW YEAR 1917 CITY of BRISTOL GIFT TIN A gift tin patroned by the City of Bristol and issued to its West Country Regiments and men serving with the colours.
Like the 1914 Princess Mary gift fund, this gift was a publicly (albeit more locally) paid for, (in this case by the Bristol City council) and intended for the men and Regiments of its locality.
(My research has failed to determine the exact content, but I aim to continue my research using the Bristol City council archive as my best source of information).
Tin is in excellent damage free condition with storage scratching to the lid and sides.
The pictorial detail of the Bristol coat of arms is bright and in the main complete.
The hinged lid is in good, 'easy' working order.
A rare tin, locally raised in the vain of the 1914 Princess Mary gift fund, and interestingly aimed at the New Year rather than Christmas.
This is a SOLD Item.
It is currently on view in Mons Military Antiques 'Archive Pages' of previously stocked and sold items....For items currently on sale from Mons' go to the 'On-Line Shop' pages !

In case you are lucky enough to expertise main a bunch on a psychiatric intensive care unit, you are in for a deal with. You will most certainly be challenged, entertained, delighted, and educated yourself—all at the same time. The sufferers on a psych unit are going by way of crisis, they usually have psychological illnesses that make schooling difficult. The education, nonetheless, is all that rather more vital to them. Psychiatric patients are within the hospital as a result of they need stabilization from their crisis, and in case you have the chance to educate them you at the least one key to unlock the next quality of life. We'd read about 'deschooling', i.e. a time frame that enables the kid to rest from all things schooly, and decided this was the very best strategy to start with. In actual fact, as time went on, it grew to become our only approach and it's only now that Alex is sort of 14 and Tegan almost 11, that we are attempting a slightly extra structured strategy. Hello Tony – a very clear and convincing exposition. Thanks for this one. It takes me again to my years as a BBC coaching manager, when we were engaged in altering our coaching fashion from conventional 'skilled lecturer' to studying facilitator. As I'm certain you'll respect, there was a fair quantity of resistance to beat as we have been asking individuals to work outdoors their consolation zones. But the change was for the higher, in time.
George Bevan is at the moment the Director of Music at Monkton Combe College. As an organist, choirmaster and trainer, George has led music departments in a wide range of faculties, educating music to college students largely aged between eleven and 18, in addition to educating privately. Thanks billybuc. The truth that you'll be able to substitute and actually qualify for benefits was wonderful to me. And the web training is a great asset as effectively. This whole park presents one thing academic at each turn. The Solid Members (Disney staff) here are among the many greatest and can answer questions about the points of interest, vegetation and animals.
The national helpline is open between Monday and Friday, 9am to 5pm, though it's possible you'll get a quicker reply by calling between 9am and 10am, or between 4pm and 5pm. You already know what, Cardisa – the really good individuals do not go to college to learn; they go to get that piece of paper upon commencement. Technology will proceed to evolve, there will be more Charter Faculties, more people will likely be home education their children and students with special wants will as soon as again go to colleges geared to meeting their specific wants.
Highschool students at Milton Academy say that in recent years racial slurs have been hurled at black students, hate-laced letters appeared in the mailboxes of no less than two academics of shade, and footage mocking black and Asian college students were broadly circulated on social media. There was bomb explosion on the Bauchi Central Market on 22 December 2014 at about 17:30hrs. As a result of the blast, the market was in flames. At the early hours of the blast, 19 persons died within the incidence and 25 injured.
We took a better take a look at these shells underneath a microscope to see the detail further. Questions continued to develop about how hard the shells were, does the shell get larger because the snail grows or do they should discover a larger shell, and what if snails did not have a shell. This led our dialog in the direction of molluscs and what different creatures had been apart of the molluscs family. The MAS community of Texas, which gathered in San Antonio over the weekend, can thank the unknown Momentum Press that printed it and the equally unknown, unqualified authors who wrote it.

Tracey came to Elliott McCarthy Dental Care a couple of years ago with crooked and stained teeth. After a smile makeover involving a combination of veneers, crowns and tooth whitening coupled with regular hygiene treatments the difference it has made to her confidence is noticeable. Whilst previously she would shy away from having her photograph taken, when we approached her for this photo shoot she was the first to sign up.
Louise had been put off going to the dentist due to for years despite having broken teeth and poor oral health, however Elliott McCarthy Dental Care was recommended by a family member. Previously Louise had low self-esteem and little confidence. After her smile makeover which included crowns, veneers, inlays and tooth whitening Louise now "can't imagine not having them done" and that it has "completely changed my life".
Andrea used to hate her teeth, was self-conscious and always stood at the back in photographs. For years she meant to take the step to getting them resolved and prompted by family circumstances came to Elliott McCarthy due to a recommendation by a friend. After seeing the team at Elliott McCarthy and discussing options Andrea had a smile makeover including veneers, crowns and bridges and has never looked back and now thinks her smile is "fantastic" and "is so glad that she found the practice".
Many years ago Susanne took a chunk out of her teeth. As a consequence she stopped smiling as she always felt that people were looking at her chipped tooth and not her. Elliott McCarthy Dental Care was recommended by a friend and after the application of veneers she has never looked back. Susanne feels that the treatment has "taken years off me" and now notices that people comment on how well she looks but cannot put their finger on why... Susanne believes it is because the veneers look so natural, oh and has even stopped smoking!
Natasha used to do a lot of dancing but once fell over and cracked a tooth in half. Led to believe that there was no fixed option she used to wear a pallet which greatly affected her confidence. Elliott McCarthy Dental Care helped her overcome her fear of the dentist and assured her there was a solution. After a treatment involving bridges and veneers Natasha described her results as "Absolutely amazing" and is delighted by the number of people that have commented on how good her smile looks..
For years Linda has a cracked tooth and as it got darker she become more conscious of it. After receiving a smile makeover including porcelain crowns, veneers, inlays and tooth whitening Linda is "over the moon" with her only regret being that she didn't get it done earlier!
This patient had a porcelain inlay to restore a tooth.
Both these patients had a series of hygiene appointments with our skilled hygienist to remove calculus, plaque and stain build up.
This patient went seven shades lighter after using our take home tray system.
Denture fitted, in-conjunction with crowns, tooth coloured fillings, teeth whitening and extensive hygiene treatment.
"Many thanks for your dedication, professionalism, and excellent dental provision provided over the years.Your cheery personality says it all... youre an absolute credit to your profession and a pleasure to be a patient of! (If that makes any sense?)"
William Thomas Askew
"To Mrs Elliott & Hygienist... Thank you for the treatment on my teeth and gums. Just to say you did a wonderful job."
Mrs Brenda Harker
"I want to thank you for your kindness and all your hard work when you were seeing to me when I lost my front tooth. At last I am able to smile again with my new tooth. You have great receptionists and they always can fit me in to see you when I have been having trouble. Once again thank you for my great smile. "
Joshua Morrow
"I would like to thank you for my recent dental treatment, involving the cleaning and two crowns in my upper teeth. My teeth now look and feel stronger after this work, and is to the same high standard of all my previous work since joining the practice. I would also like to thank both dentists and their staff for care and kindness in all my visits. I hope to continue my treatment for many years to come with all involved at Elliott & McCarthy."
S Armstrong
"After my recent visits to your dental practice, I would like to say thank you to you, your dental nurse, and your reception staff, for the courteous and efficient way I was dealt with. I was quickly made to feel at ease and the treatment was completed to my satisfaction, with the minimum of fuss."
Marjorie Cram
"My name is Christine Colman and I am 73 years old. At my age my teeth were chipped, discoloured and broken. Never able to smile for a photograph, always trying to keep my mouth shut. Then !!!! Miss McCarthy. Her patience, help and much work I now have 6 beautiful capped top set and 4 at the bottom. It was a real test for her 2 hour sessions and treatment in between till it was perfect, and I had no pain or discomfort at any time. It has taken at least 10 years off my life and given me back my smile. All this at a cost of only my time and her patience."
C Colman
"Thank you all so much for taking care of me when I attended your surgery for treatment. You were all aware I was extremely nervous at my first visit, but you made me feel very welcome."
Giovanni Fabio

Here Comes the Rain
Photographer: Miško Kranjec
Photo by Miško Kranjec
Here Comes the Rain
Long, long time
ago, when I was still aspiring to become the photographer, the late editor of
the Modern Photography magazine Herbert Kepler wrote approximately this in his
editorial: If you want to get the different photos, take the camera and go out
when it rains. The people behave differently, they dress differently, the scene
is different, and the light is different.
These words came to my mind next to the last Saturday in July when the weather alarm on the radio announced the heavy thunderstorm with the heavy rain and the gale winds, even with possible hail, is fast approaching Ljubljana. The western sky was already black, the monumental thunderstorm clouds were rising menacingly into the sky, and from a distance the threatening thunder could be heard. I quickly dressed for what was coming, grabbed both cameras and 15 minutes later I was standing on the platform 5-6, where the international trains call. The platform was quite full of passengers, foremost the young ones with the enormous rucksacks and sleeping bags attached to them - modern day tourists discovering Europe by train. Mostly they were waiting for IC211, the eastbound Sava Express, which would take them to Zagreb, Croatia, where they will board the trains to the Dalmatian coast, or the train to Greece or Turkey, while some were waiting for its westbound twin, IC210, for the trip to Munich, and from there most probably back home - who knows where in Europe. Normally these trains call at Ljubljana 30 minutes apart, but that day both were late - IC211 around 50 minutes, and IC210 around 15 minutes, meaning that they could meet here at the station.
When I arrived at the station, the weather was still calm and warm, but 15 minutes later the sudden gust changed the scene completely. Dust and debris were flaying all around, joined by the big tin plate, part of the advertisement panel surrounding one of the platform pillars, and then the big, heavy raindrops began to fall. The strong wind was carrying them almost horizontally and almost instantly half of the platform was wet. People tried to protect themselves from cold and rain by squeezing together into a heap, finding the meager shelter behind the pillars, or much cozier one in the underground corridor. However, their misery didn't last too long as both expresses arrived shortly in quick succession and saved them, while the newly arrived passengers hastily took their places. Fortunately, the storm soon calmed down, the the stormy clouds sailed to the east, the platform was empty, and only the big puddles on tarmac reminded of what happened in the past hour

Melbourne - Black Rock - Melbourne:
None of the 4 (myself included) that turned up for the Northside (Wheelers) Ride*, were particularly eager to spend much time on the bike. I rode my fixed road bike, partially for the enforced cadence, partially so i didn't have to re-clean my roadie before tomorrow's race.
Tim and Bensley provided the pain at the end of the ride, attacking with 4-5km to go. I was able to bridge across at a cadence that had my hips flopping around like a wet fish, but by the 2nd or 3rd bridging effort I was done, I couldn't even hold their wheel.
A spot of porridge, and a touch of stretching then in to bed early. I'm nervous about tomorrow.
D: 46.1km
A: 155m
PMPW: 93kg
* I like this name, it rhymes, I'm going to try and make it stick.
