Each week The Weekly Times is running a story on patients at Royal Rehab. These patients need our support to help them return to their lives. To show your support for and to take part in the Ryde Rivers Festival Fun Run your school, club or community group should register by clicking on the button below.
This fabulous Annual Family Fun Event previously known as The Ryde Aquatic Festival has been renamed "Ryde Rivers Festival". Organised by the Rotary Club of Gladesville to celebrate the historical significance of the waterways to the City of Ryde, the festival is a free annual fun-day for the whole family and its purpose is to raise funds for Ryde Hospital, Royal Rehab, tertiary bursaries for worthy young people to assist with tertiary education and other Rotary projects.
The City of Ryde is mostly surrounded by the Parramatta and Lane Cove Rivers and in the 1850′s crowds in excess of 100,000 spectators travelled by foot, horse & cart or by boat to the place now known as Kissing Point Park in Putney to witness the Australian and World Rowing Regattas, which were then Australia's premier sporting events. The area was later named Kissing Point because when berthing, the old vessels used to slide their bows onto the shallow beach until the bottom of the boat was 'kissing the sand.' Kissing Point Park is also the site of the first brewery built in Australia.
The Ryde Rivers Festival gets under way at 8.15am with the 1km Kids Dash as part of the Fun Run. The spectacular Dragon Boat Challenge starts on the water at 9.00am and runs continuously throughout the day, while the Billy Cart Derby commences at noon and the Children's Fun Games get under way at 1:00pm. We also have family entertainment, kids rides and lots of food stalls and other displays. This year we will also have Jimmy Shaw and his jazz band playing as well as some local rock bands and the Royal Australian Navy Rock Band so you can enjoy a bite to eat while listening to some great jazz or rock music. Please enjoy our website and whether you are a participant or if you just want to stroll around the beautiful grounds while taking in some fresh air and enjoying the events, we look forward to seeing you at the Ryde Rivers Festival.

Eggs and Soldiers with Asparagus
Strips of whole wheat toast "soldiers" and crisp tender asparagus dipped into a soft boiled egg, if that's not the perfect Spring breakfast, I don't know what is! Not only is this a quick, affordable, healthy way to start the morning (takes less than 10 minutes), it's also fun dunking your toast strips and asparagus into the yolk. Eggs yolks used to get a bad rap, b

This 250-acre Starwood resort and conference center is a luxury property ideally situated on the edge of Camelback Mountain in Phoenix's Sonoran desert. The massive property makes a striking first impression, with its lush green landscaping, waterfalls, koi ponds, and palms set against a rugged backdrop. Meanwhile, communal interiors have an old-world luxury appeal with marble floors and chandeliers. For activities, there is a USGA 27-hole golf course and pro shop, 11 tennis courts with various surfaces, and a winding cactus garden for beautiful sunrise walks. The nine pools have attendants who will regularly deliver towels and pitchers of ice water, and a spa with 24 treatment rooms. Comfortable accommodations include 643 rooms in the hotel, 119 casitas near Necklace Lake, and a number of residential-style suites. Guests have their choice among 10 restaurants and lounges, as well as easy access to both Scottsdale and Phoenix.
A middling motel in downtown Scottsdale turned boutique-style standout by the Kimpton Group, the FireSky "resort" offers something for everyone -- a sandy play space by the pool; free wine during happy hour; a cozy cocktail lounge; a small but sufficient spa; kid-friendly marshmallow roasts; the list goes on. It's crowded for a reason: value.
This 326-room resort in central Scottsdale, next to the high-end McCormick Ranch Golf Course, is upscale but laid-back, with expansive, landscaped grounds and Spanish-style architecture. Its attractive, casual pools and attentive staff are highlights, but the rooms -- while nice -- aren't quite luxurious.
While not quite a romantic escape in the same way as The Boulders or The Sanctuary, the Westin Kierland is, all-around, a great resort with a convenient Scottsdale location. For kids: excellent pool complex; supervised educational activities; special events for teens; weekend bonfires. For adults: fine dining; great golf; quality spa; adults-only pool; across from a shopping mall.
The Four Seasons is one of the top luxury resorts in Scottsdale, with a gorgeous bi-level pool, an intimate setting in the Sonoran Desert, and beautiful grounds that blend with the surrounding landscape (expect tall cacti, flowering shrubs, and natural stone formations). The property comprises a cluster of low adobe-style buildings; the 210 rooms and suites are housed in 25 casitas, giving the Four Seasons the feel of a small village. The lobby is stunning and high-design, with colorful, modern Southwestern decor, wrought-iron light fixtures, and wood-beamed ceilings. Rooms aren't quite as stylish, but are still elegant and feature gas-burning fireplaces, L'Occitane toiletries, iHome alarm clocks, and plush beds. Solid dining options, a wonderful spa, a huge fitness center, and an on-site art gallery round out the experience. But there are fees for Wi-Fi and parking, and the parking lot is a bit far from the main building -- though staff can escort guests to and from in golf carts.

Whilst updating my bookmarks earlier today I came across a section of the JISCInfoNet site I had forgotten about (looks like it was updated late last year).
Change management - Jisc infoNet is a pretty good infokit for those looking at change management, even if you don't have experience of it. It gives a good run down of the history, types, methods and helping you implement it.
For those who have looked at / done FITS then you will see some common areas, and so will those with ITIL / PRINCE2 experience.
It is worth following it through as if it was a self study guide, and try to think about one major piece of change you have done in the last 2 years and work out how you might have done it differently.

Estimates of the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in individuals
with intellectual impairments range from 10% to 39% (Borthwick-Duffy 1994; Bouras and Drummond 1992). In children
and adolescents with intellectual disabilities, emotional and behavioral
problems are 3–7 times higher than in typically developing youth
(Dykens 2000). Symptoms of psychiatric disorders are
often attributed to the intellectual disability rather than recognized
as comorbid psychiatric symptomatology. Additionally, some mental
health conditions manifest differently in individuals with intellectual
disabilities than they do in the general population (e.g., psychotic
features may be more frequent symptoms of depression in individuals
with intellectual impairments). These difficulties are exacerbated
in individuals with severe forms of intellectual disability because
of their limited communication skills and bland symptomatology known
as psychosocial masking (Kerker et al. 2004).

Windows 7
Outlook connector: wasn't broke, I tried to fix it, now it's broke...
Hey all! Unfortunately I'm that guy.
I recently bought a Windows phone and used Outlook connector to sync my mailbox through Windows Live, on my phone and laptop.
Working seamlessly, now with both my hotmail and outlook accounts coming through my outlook, beautifully manageable in one place and syncing (like an exchange server?) on my phone along with all my contacts. Bosh. I then decided to fiddle and broke stuff. Now, emails sent to my hotmail no longer come through my outlook and vice versa and essentially I've returned to having emails going to two seperate inboxes. But more importantly, I presume I'm no longer syncing any new contacts, diary entries etc with my Windows Live account? I've also notice the data file within outlook tools>settings for hotmail.com (default) is "not available"?
So my questions are threefold:
1.) I think it's something obvious, but does anyone know what I've done?
2.) Will you be so kind as to tell me how to make it right?
3.) When will I learn that I'm not a computer programmer and if it ain't broke, don't fix it?
These are the fiddles that I can recall making...
1.) copied "sent items" from my old sent items folder (now in "personal folders" since my hotmail.com folders have become the default) to my new default sent items folder, to keep things in one place. (now reinstated in original folder)
2.) copied remaining emails from my old inbox, to the new (for reasons as above) and subsequently removing that inbox from my favourites folders. (now reinstated)
3.) removed the Pop3 account that I'd previously set up on my Windows phone (now reinstated), presuming I'd only need the Windows Live accont from this point on.
4.) changed the name of the "windows live" account on my phone to "Outlook". Now, though I've changed it back to Windows Live, the icon on my phone only says "Hotmail."

With $25 million in new funding, Pivot3 focuses on future
Company plans international growth; co-founder provides business update
Finally, Caswell said Pivot3 will use some of the money to expand their pool of demonstration equipment. That equipment will be heavily geared toward emerging markets such as Asia-Pacific and Dubai, where there aren't existing installations to show off to prospective customers and systems integrators.
Growing the company internationally means getting feet on the ground around the world, explained Caswell.
"I recently spoke with Lars Thinggaard [president and CEO of Milestone Systems] about how we could work together internationally, and he asked me a single question: 'Do you have local presence in these countries?'," said Caswell. "In the open systems market, companies have to be working together closely, even if it's behind the scenes, so you reduce the risk to integrators and customers. The responsibility is on the vendors to have the systems work together. So the question becomes whether there is someone on site to help integrators work through it."
Certainly international growth for Pivot3 presents a number of stepping stones that the company must accomplish -- placing sales and sales engineering staff overseas, developing relationships with systems integrators and getting those first installs complete. But at least for now, the company is already seeing positive signs in the U.S., where it has focused since its founding in 2003.
Caswell notes that the company has over 140 customers (as of February 2010), and they saw a 40 percent rate of re-purchase from 2008 customers who were expanding their video surveillance systems storage using Pivot3's "scale out" model that allows company to add more storage incrementally without ever having to make a huge up-front head-end purchase. The company has found acceptance in the so-called "Indian casinos" market -- those casinos operated by Native American tribes, but Caswell said they've also seen growth in the transportation market segment, especially in airports.
And with $25 million in the bank, Caswell said he is optimistic that he can take the company's current growth and help make the company an established player around the world – even beyond the world of video surveillance, since he feels the company's storage solutions have IT applications well beyond traditional video surveillance.
"The funding is set to get the company to profitability and cash-flow break-even," Caswell said. "This is the last funding round we expect on the road to something like an IPO."

"Prometo: Mi cabeza para pensar claramente, mi corazon para mayor lealtad, mis manos para mejor servicio…" No, I don't speak Spanish, but I have learned that those are the opening words of the 4-H pledge in Spanish. Today we'll meet an innovative 4-H club which is helping extend the benefits of 4-H to a new dimension of Spanish-speaking families.
This is the last profile in our three-part series about Steve Irsik, an agricultural entrepreneur in southwest Kansas. We have previously learned about how his family developed their farming operation, including the creation of Royal Farms Dairy east of Garden City. Kyle Averhoff was brought in as manager. A key element to the success of such large, modern dairies is the workforce – many of whom are Hispanic.
In October 2012, Steve Irsik contacted Debra Bolton, the K-State Research and Extension family and consumer sciences specialist for the southwest area of Kansas.
"We were brainstorming how 4-H could reach more families," Debra said. Specifically, they discussed how the benefits of 4-H could be applied to the newly immigrated families who had come to work in southwest Kansas.
"Royal Farms Dairy is home to over 14,000 cows and heifers and about 65 employees, many from El Salvador, Guatemala, and many other countries throughout Central America, South America and up through Mexico," Kyle Averhoff said. "Southwest Kansas is an economic empire in how it's developed and grown. Without the Hispanic culture and the culture of many other immigrant populations, it wouldn't have been possible."
K-State Research and Extension faculty in the southwest area developed a pilot program to reach out to this segment of the population. It was supported by state 4-H leader Barbara Stone and the Kansas 4-H Foundation. Bertha Mendoza is a nutrition specialist in the southwest area of Kansas, and her existing relationship with several Hispanic families was a major help.
These families and those of the workers at the dairies became a target for this innovative 4-H program. Alejandra Romero and Ruddy Yanez were hired as summer interns to assist with the project.
The goal was to create one club of 25 to 30 youth, but the interest grew faster than expected. The end result was four clubs involving 90 youth, with hundreds more on a waiting list. The clubs are located in Finney, Gray, and Kearney counties. These new 4-H members live in or near rural communities such as Garden City, Ingalls, Pierceville, and Deerfield, population 892 people. Now, that's rural.

White retires
from soda fountain
By SUE
A 41-year career at the soda fountain at Tyson Drug Co. ended last week.
Robert White, known all over for his lemonade, ice tea, ice cream cones, and fixing watch bands, is no longer behind the counter. He will be missed by those who depended on him to replace a battery in a watch, put on a new band, serve a treat, and have popcorn ready.
Lois Cox, who worked with White, expressed her unhappiness at his retirement but also her heartfelt respect.
"You could not have wanted a better person to work with," she said. "He was good to the people and like my neighbor next door."
The two worked together at Tyson's for 20 years, she said.
She stood at the counter at 3 p.m. the last day White was at work.
White was also charged with reordering stock, such as the candy, spices and vitamins.
He expects his job of fixing watches will be missed as much as anything else.
"That's one thing they are going to miss," White said. "I know they are going to miss that part."
Mark Granberry will be taking over behind the counter for White.
Bob Lomenick, owner of Tyson's, said White is a private man. He worked quietly and "eased out."
He left without fanfare or parties.
"We're going to miss him," Lomenick said.
