Outlook Talking of Barclays, it yesterday confirmed one of the worst-kept secrets in the City by appointing Anthony Salz to lead a review of its business practices. Until 2006, the good Mr Salz was a corporate lawyer. From there, that's right, he moved into investment banking.
A vice chairman at Rothschild's, he said he hoped his review would "significantly assist Barclays in re building trust and reaffirming its position as one of our leading institutions". That ought to involve some radical ideas about reforming Barclays' culture.
Bob Diamond, the former chief executive, once said the actions of the traders who tried to fix Libor and were promised bottles of Bollinger for doing so "did not reflect" the culture of his bank or the 140,000 people Barclays employs.
However, the conversations I have had with former Barclays staff paint a picture of an environment where you put in days of 12 or 14 hours or even longer, and you can forget about finding a niche for yourself where you do well. It's move up or move out. That may not be the whole picture. But a hothouse environment does seem to encourage a certain type of person whose moral compass might not be totally effective.
The sort of person who, when they reach management, might be blind to the flaws in hugely profitable products of dubious worth. Such as payment protection insurance policies. Or interest rate swaps sold to small business.
Is Mr Salz, a City insider, prepared to indulge in the radical thinking that Barclays badly needs? Will he be willing to make unpalatable suggestions? We shall see.Reuse content

The next time you cook a roast of any kind, snip off 3 leaves and place on
top of the roast. You will be in for a definite tasty treat! I have to
keep mine indoors, and I lost one a few years ago. I asked a neighbor to
give me a start of hers, but she said she couldn't as she uses so many of
the leaves for cooking. My last trip south I found another one! Yippee!
It is doing very, very well.

Little gem
Stayed for 3 nights in room 3, which was small but suited our needs.
The ensuite had a great shower, the room had a TV, kettle, hairdryer and iron, and a huge wardrobe with a full length mirror. Staff were really friendly and helpful; the room was cleaned and tidied thoroughly every day, and the food. If nothing else, go for the food - top quality, great choice and very reasonably priced. All together a very enjoyable stay - with definitely go again.

Derek w
Very friendly staff warm welcome good food.
Nice location
This hotel has perfect location, being close to the peak district, Sheffield and Matalock, in a lovely little village.
The building is a lovely old-fashioned manor building, and the rooms are nicely decorated. Take note that the walls are thin and it is very noisy on a Saturday night due to the bar downstairs. We struggled for hours to fall asleep. We waited an hour to be served our hot breakfast, which was also disappointing, but overall the stay was not bad and the beds were comfortable.

Autumn Break
We stayed for three nights in a lovely warm room, The Caron Room, with the 1950s style of white furniture.
We had a meal in the restaurant the first evening and had a selection from the Tapas menu, which was new to us but most enjoyable. The breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious and the staff were all friendly and helpful.

A weekday at the Manor House Hotel - Dronfield
For a business trip I booked the Manor House hotel extremely late (only the day before) so I wasn't sure what to expect.
I was pleasantly surprised. There was plenty of off-street parking, the staff were lovely and extremely helpful. The room itself was well presented and clean, as too was the ensuite. The bed was comfortable and I had a great nights sleep. The food available in the restaurant was reasonably priced and of excellent quality. All in all, if you are staying for business or personal reasons, I recommend the Manor House Hotel.

Response from hotel
Dear Nicola,
Thank you for your kind comments. We are glad you decided to choose our venue at the last minute and that we made your stay enjoyable.
We look forward to meeting you again in the future.
Kind regards and many thanks,
Danielle Hodge,
General Manager.
Just what I needed
Is attending a family funeral business or leisure.
No matter. The staff at the Manor House Hotel could not have been kinder or more helpful at a difficult time. They accommodated my dietary requirements with imagination (I shall not soon forget the sweet potato wedges!) and carried my bag up the attractive but possibly hazardous outside stone steps. The room was quirky - a large photo of Steve MacQueen was not my style but that's hardly important. If I wanted to criticise the room I would say a) The shelf in the shower room was not wide enough for my sponge bag (but this is true of the majority of hotels - I have a large sponge-bag) and b) The missing knob on the door was unsightly but not troublesome. All in all, I wish I had stayed there in happier circumstances. I probably won't stay there again but that is because I will now have no reason to visit Dronfield.

Response from hotel
Dear Ms Dawty,
We would like to thank you for taking your time to review us.
We are glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and we made you feel comfortable and such sad circumstances. Take care and we hope if you are passing us again you will pop by and see us.
Have a lovely Christmas,
kind regards Danielle Hodge, General Manager

Biomass is a form of stored solar energy and is available in a number of different forms. These include wood, straw, energy crops, sewage sludge, waste organic materials and animal litter.
Although burning biomass releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, this is offset by the carbon dioxide absorbed in the original growth of the biomass, or captured in the growth of new biomass to replace the materials used. As a result, using biomass for heating/electricity generation results in very low net 'lifecycle' carbon emissions relative to conventional sources of heating, such as gas, heating oil or electricity.
Biofuels are any kind of fuel made from living things, or from the waste they produce. We use the term biofuels to encompass any alternative substitute for petrol or diesel or other liquid fuel made from processing plant material or waste oil.
Biofuels are not a recent development, they have been around as long as cars have. At the start of the 20th century, Henry Ford planned to fuel his Model Ts with ethanol, and early diesel engines were shown to run on peanut oil. They have though seen significant attention recently due to humanity's ever-dwindling supply of natural resources or more specifically our over-dependence on fossil fuels.
Hydropower is one of the most efficient ways to generate electricity in the right locations. C.16% of the world's energy is generated by hydro schemes. Hydro power is also incredibly versatile, providing the ability to increase/decrease output very quickly in response to demand. The UK has a lot of untapped potential in the sub 1MWp market (small/medium)
Renewable Heat
We use more heat than electricity in the UK, however a unit of electricity is generally more expensive than a unit of heat – hence the focus within the renewable energy world has been more about electricity. This should diminish the technologies or the taking advantage of the opportunities there are to generate heat from renewable sources.
Solar PV
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into energy. Panels (or photovoltaic panels if you prefer) generate DC power which is then converted into AC before being fed into the grid or a building's supply
Whilst a nice sunny day will generate excellent output, the PV can produce energy on cloudy days, it is daylight that is required.
The beauty of solar in the context of UK Commercial property is that you are using space that has hitherto been unused (no 'land cost')and you can generate electricity to decrease grid usage and therefore reliance on 'brown' power.
The UK has some of the best wind resources in Europe that can be used as a low carbon renewable energy supply, to help meet our security of supply and climate change goals,
Onshore and offshore wind generation can make a significant contribution to the UK's renewable energy targets and aspirations given the UK's substantial wind resource and the relatively advanced nature of wind generation technology. The UK already has more offshore wind capacity than any other country in the world.
The combination of hands-on real estate asset management experience together with their obvious technical ability is what set them apart when assessing who to work with. We have been delighted with the work carried out and would have no hesitation in recommending them to other property owners
Syzygy handled the whole process from advising on the size of the installation, producing initial designs, tendering and project management. They delivered the project on time and on budget and are now managing and monitoring the the installation on an on-going basis... Gunwharf Quays now has the largest solar PV system on a shopping centre in the UK and has been nominated for UK Renewable Energy project of the year, which we are very proud of. We were very pleased with their work and would have no hesitation using them again and indeed recommending them to others.
Syzygy managed a retro-fit PV project for us at our Crystal Peaks Shopping Centre in Sheffield. They took the project from identifying the opportunity, producing the financial appraisals through to delivering the final installation and now they monitor it for us. We felt it was important to use an experienced specialist consultancy to run this project for us, and have been very pleased with Syzygy's work to this end. The installation was delivered on time and ahead of initial budget estimates. In summary, they handled all aspects of the project, including tendering the contract and monitoring the contractor, making what was a high profile project very simple for us to deliver. Our local team was particuarly impressed with their ability to work without affecting the day to day operation of the centre.
Meet the Team
Syzygy's team is committed to delivering best in class service to our clients. We are very passionate about what we do, and care about how we do it.
Our team has over 40 years of industry experience, and has consistently delivered high quality projects for an impressive array of clients.
John Macdonald-Brown
"What we are seeing now as regards current and future legislation and policy-making is a very clear sign of where the agenda is being driven"
John managed commercial property funds from 1999 to 2009, at Ashtenne Holdings and subsequently at Spitfire Estates. In this period John managed investment from AXA REIM, BlackRock and Lasalle IM.
"The sustainability agenda has been the elephant in the room for many commercial property owners. What we are seeing now as regards current and future legislation and policy-making is a very clear sign of where the agenda is being driven.
Planning requirements, 2018 minimum EPC requirements, 2019 zero-carbon development and the CRC regime to name but three….it is incumbent on property owners to introduce measures to improve building performance both in terms of reducing energy usage but also in finding ways to generate renewable energy on-site, it is going to be much more cost effective in the long run for those that take decisions now than it will be for those have changed forced up on them in later years."
John set up Syzygy in 2009 aiming to help bridge the two worlds of renewable energy and commercial real estate. Providing practical advice and to deliver well thought out and relevant renewable energy solutuions to property owners and occupiers.
Away from work John sails when he can, plays cricket, and occasionally golf. In the winter, he can be found at most London Scottish home games, as a retired 1st XV player he is happy to bore the young athletes with advice on what it was like in his day!
John is married to Anna and they have two children, Tommy and Kitty.
Neil Sinclair
"Not being a contractor nor being wedded to any technologies really does allow us to deliver the optimum renewable generation solution for our clients"
Neil worked for 14 years at various financial institutions in London trading Emerging and European equities. His interests however lay elsewhere within renewable energy so in 2008/9 he completed a Masters at London business school and went on to set up and run a renewable energy contracting business, which he sold in 2011 prior to joining Syzygy. Neil brings practical experience in several of the major technologies as well as financial know how.
Away from work Neil loves to golf, ski and occasionally play tennis.
Neil is married to Bryony and they have three children, Cammy, Alex & Lochlan. He hopes all his boys play rugby for Scotland but if they fail to make the cut, the good news is they are eligible to play for England.

Black Dice
There's the "space-rock" of Pink Floyd, Mogwai, and Flying Saucer Attack, and then there's the music of instrumental-experimental Brooklyn trio Black Dice that very literally sounds like it comes from the cosmos -- something the microphones onboard the Cassini Saturn probe might pick up if it discovered a well-stocked zoo on the surface of the sixth rock from the sun.
Gadget-manipulated guitars are responsible for Creature Comforts' dominating squeaks, twitters, scrapes, drones, bubbles, glurbles, and cries; whenever a near-melodic arpeggio or tribal drum thump emerges, threatening to anchor any of these eight tracks in conventionality, those mostly playful, infrequently ominous noises swoop in to keep things plenty abstract. "Creature" sounds like a dozen Star Wars droids trying to communicate over the din of idling buses in a Greyhound Terminal, while "Live Loop" and the 15-minute "Skeleton" generate strangely tropical atmospheres, like extraterrestrials landing in the middle of a luau. Creature Comforts is probably best listened to on headphones -- not only to appreciate the trippy panning effects, but to keep the neighbors from thinking you're an advance scout for the alien invasion.

Click here for Important Basketball Prospectus Premium Information!
February 22, 2008
Prospectus Preview
Friday's Games to Watch
by Caleb Peiffer
Games of Friday, February 22
Matchup: Davidson (20-6, 18-0 Southern) at Winthrop (18-9, 9-3 Big South), 7:00 p.m. EST, ESPN2
Rankings: Davidson, #53 in Pomeroy Ratings (1st of 11 in Southern); Winthrop, #110 (1st of 8 in Big South)
Pomeroy Prediction: Davidson, 64-62 in 65 Possessions
Upset Possibility: 41%
Prospectus: The best team in the Southern takes on the top squad in the Big South as the BracketBusters ESPN showcase gets going. Both of these squads stand well above their conference peers--the second best team in the Southern, Georgia Southern, is 75 spots behind the Wildcats in the Pomeroy Ratings, while Liberty is 81 places behind the Eagles in the Big South. Davidson has far and away the better offense, with a 1.11 points per possesion adjusted efficiency as compared to the 0.99 of the Eagles. The Wildcats are powered by the eighth-best two-point field goal percentage in Division I, as well as a very low turnover percentage, and can thank star sophomore guard Stephen Curry for both of those strengths. Winthrop has a slightly better defense than the Wildcats, due primarily to a greater ability to make opponents miss, and its star senior Chris Gaynor ranks ninth in the country in steal percentage. Davidson has won 16 straight games, all against Southern Conference foes, so it will be good for the Wildcats to get a stiffer test before heading to the NCAA Tournament. This will be the best defense the Wildcats have faced since playing UCLA on December 8, and the Eagles will be going up against their best offensive foe since beating Miami FL on December 29.
Matchup: Brown (14-8, 6-2 Ivy League) at Columbia (12-11, 5-3), 7:00
Rankings: Brown, #158 in Pomeroy Ratings (2nd of 8 in Ivy); Columbia, #227 (3rd)
Pomeroy Prediction: Brown, 61-60 in 59 Possessions
Upset Possibility: 43%
Prospectus: Brown looks to be the only Ivy League team with a realistic shot of catching Cornell for the Ivy League crown and NCAA Tournament berth that comes with it (remember, there is no conference tournament). The Bears are two behind the Big Red with six games to play, and still have a game left with Cornell, tomorrow night on the road. That makes this game between the second and third place teams essential, and it projects to be a slow-paced, down-to-the-final-possession nail-biter. Brown has built its offense around getting to the free throw line--the Bears rank fourth in free throw rate, or free throws shot per 100 field goals attempted, and are 10th in percentage of points scored at the line. This is not a single-season trend for the Bears. In 2004 Brown ranked 250th in free throw rate, then improved to 85th in 2005, 33rd in 2006, and first last season. The team also runs the Princeton offense, and therefore shoots (and makes) a large number of threes. So if you want to see an attack that has all but eliminated the two-pointer, the Bears are your team to watch. Brown has won five straight games since losing to Cornell, including a 68-63 win over Columbia at home, while the Lions have taken four in a row since falling to Brown. The Lions have the curious defensive profile of being very good at three-point field goal defense (30.7 percent) yet also having given up a ton of three-point attempts (39.7 percent of opposing shots). The Bears shot 8-of-23 from deep against Columbia in the first game.
Matchup: Princeton (5-17, 2-5 Ivy League) at Harvard (6-18, 1-7), 7:00
Rankings: Princeton, #288 in Pomeroy Ratings (6th of 8 in Ivy); Harvard, #272 (5th)
Pomeroy Prediction: Harvard, 65-59 in 61 Possessions
Upset Possibility: 28%
Prospectus: This rivalry has produced a long series of heartbreaks for the Crimson. Princeton beat Harvard earlier this year by 14 at home, and last season won in double-overtime in New Jersey, where they also won in double-overtime in 2004. The Crimson managed to beat the Tigers in Cambridge last season, but two years ago had a win pulled right out from under them at home, as Harvard blew a six point lead in the last minute to lose by one. That loss found its parallel defeat last Friday night, when the Crimson, winning 71-66 against first-place Cornell with 42 seconds left, ended up losing by a point after the Big Red's Alex Tyler made three consecutive layups. Harvard lost again on Saturday to Columbia, its seventh consecutive defeat after winning its Ivy opener. The Tigers committed almost half as many turnovers as Harvard and hit 12-of-29 threes to win the first game between these two, but since that victory Princeton has lost five in a row.
Matchup: Yale (10-12, 4-4 Ivy League) at Cornell (16-5, 8-0), 7:00
Rankings: Yale, #228 in Pomeroy Ratings (4th of 8 in Ivy); Cornell, #143 (1st)
Pomeroy Prediction: Cornell, 79-67 in 70 Possessions
Upset Possibility: 14%
Prospectus: Cornell, which was profiled on the front page of the New York Times sports section on Monday, now has a 36.6 percent chance of winning its final six games to finish a perfect 14-0 in the Ivy League. The last Ivy team to run the table at 14-0 was Pennsylvania in 2003. That was a much stronger team than this year's Cornell squad--the Quakers finished 56th in the Pomeroy Ratings that year and beat Temple, Villanova and Southern California in non-conference play, garnering an 11 seed in the tournament. The Big Red, whose best non-conference win was against Siena at home, are looking at a 13-15 seed. After losing last Saturday night at Pennsylvania to fall four back in the standings, Yale was all but eliminated from the running for the league title, but the Bulldogs could do a huge favor to Brown by pulling off an upset in Ithaca. There doesn't seem to be much chance of that happening, however, especially given Cornell's 66-45 win over Yale in New Haven February 2. The Bulldogs were held to 0.71 points per possession in that loss and an eFG% of 28.4, their lowest of the season. Ryan Wittman, the son of Randy Wittman, head coach of the NBA's Timberwolves, scored 18 points on 3-of-3 from three-point range in the win. Wittman has hit 65 of his 132 attempts from deep (49 percent) on the season.
Matchup: Lipscomb (13-14, 7-6 Atlantic Sun) at Belmont (19-8, 11-2), 7:30
Rankings: Lipscomb, #203 in Pomeroy Ratings (3rd of 12 in A-Sun); Belmont, #169 (1st)
Pomeroy Prediction: Belmont, 82-74 in 72 Possessions
Upset Possibility: 24%
Prospectus: This is a matchup between Nashville city rivals, and the two teams that tied for the Atlantic Sun regular-season title two years ago with a 15-5 record. The Belmont Bruins have won their last seven games to climb into the driver's seat in the A-Sun. Belmont has also won the past two Atlantic Sun tournaments, garnering a 15 seed in the NCAA Tournament both times. The Bruins lost by 25 to Georgetown in the first round last year, and by 34 to their big brother Bruins from UCLA in 2006. The first game this season between Belmont and the Bisons went into double overtime, with the Bruins pulling out a 99-91 road win over their urban neighbors. Belmont shot 11-of-29 from three point range in that game, which is actually a lower number of attempts than would be expected give their 77 field goal attempts: 47 percent of Belmont's seasonal field goal attempts have come from long range, a higher ratio than all but seven other Division I teams. The Bruins, however, are most efficient on two-point shots (54 percent). In the double-overtime loss, Lipscomb got a big game from senior guard-forward Eddie Ard, who scored 27 points on 11-of-22 shooting and grabbed 10 rebounds. Belmont was led by junior Shane Dansby, who scored 23 on 10-of-16 from the floor and had 12 rebounds.
Matchup: UC Santa Barbara (20-6, 9-4 Big West)
at Utah St. (18-9, 8-4 Western Athletic), 9:00, ESPNU
Rankings: UC Santa Barbara, #127 in Pomeroy Ratings (2nd of 9 in Big West); Utah St., #137 (4th of 9 in WAC)
Pomeroy Prediction: Utah St., 70-67 in 64 Possessions
Upset Possibility: 37%
Prospectus: A couple of weeks ago Utah St. was in first place in the WAC, but the Aggies lost three straight games, all on the road, by a combined total of just 13 points, to fall a game behind Boise St. and New Mexico St. in the loss column with four conference games left. This is a non-conference BracketBuster pairing with the Gauchos of UC Santa Barbara, who sit two back in the loss column of first-place Cal St. Northridge in the Big West with three conference games left. The matchup to watch in this one will be between Utah St.'s offense and UC Santa Barbara's defense--the Aggies rank third in the nation in eFG%, while the Gauchos have the second-best defense in the Big West.
While UC Santa Barbara likely won't be able to stop Utah St.'s two-point attack--the Aggies have shot 55 percent on their twos, while the Gauchos have allowed a high 51% two-point percentage--the team might well be able to disrupt the Utah St. attack by forcing turnovers. The Gauchos have forced turnovers on 27 percent of opponent possessions, the third-best mark in the country, while the Aggies' major weakness on offense is turnovers, as they have lost the ball on 21.6 percent of their possessions. Furthermore, the Game Plan correlations data shows that Utah St.'s offense has been particularly disrupted by coughing it up, as its turnover percentage has a -0.61 correlation to offensive efficiency. For UC Santa Barbara, rising opponent turnover percentage is even more strongly correlated than that to the betterment of the Gauchos' defense, with a -0.69 relationship (1 would mean all of the difference in the team's defensive efficiency was explained by its opponents' turnover percentage). UC Santa Barbara will have a tough time getting the ball from senior Aggies shooting guard Jaycee Carroll, however, as Carroll turns it over on only 13 percent of the possessions he uses. He also ranks first in offensive rating (131) among players who have used at least 20 percent of possessions (and he's used 23.8 percent).

Sweet And Sour Spinach
|Fresh spinach/Frozen chopped spinach
|20 Ounce (2 Packages, 10 Ounces Each)
|Bacon slices
|4 , cut into 1 inch strips
|All purpose flour
|1 Tablespoon
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|Cider vinegar
|3 Tablespoon
|1 1⁄2 Teaspoon
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Black pepper
|1⁄8 Teaspoon
1. Trim the fresh spinach of coarse stems and blemished leaves, and wash it.
2. Place the spinach into a large (6- or 7-quart) pot with just the water that clings to the leaves, and cook, covered, for 5 minutes, or until it is just limp. If you are using frozen spinach, cook, according to package directions. Drain the cooked spinach well and press out as much liquid as you can. Put the spinach into a serving bowl and set in a keep-warm (250°F) oven.
3. While the spinach is cooking, cook the bacon in a 10-inch skillet over moderately high heat until crisp—about 5 minutes. Drain on paper toweling, set aside, and pour out all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings. Blend the flour into the remaining drippings.
4. Mix together the water, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Add the mixture slowly to the bacon drippings and flour, blending until smooth and thick. Pour the sauce over the spinach. Serve with the bacon crumbled on top.

Parallel Worlds of Classical Art and Text by Jocelyn Penny Small
Book DescriptionThe Parallel Worlds of Classical Art and Text is the first study to consider the relationship between artists and texts throughout classical antiquity and to cover the entire range of illustrated text from traditional literary to technical works. By systematically applying new and objective criteria to judge the fidelity between picture and text, it is becomes clear that artists illustrate stories, not texts. Jocelyn Penny Small argues that artistic transmissions follow the model of oral, not textual, transmission where the variant rules and where there is no original. Pictures on vases, she demonstrates, should not be used to reconstruct lost literary works. Finally, Small offers an analysis of literary sources on pictures in texts, proving that the appearance of the first illustrated literary classical texts occurred at the end of the Late Roman Republic.

Every day we receive boatloads of great reader tips in our inbox, but for various reasons—maybe they're a bit too niche, maybe we couldn't find a good way to present it, or maybe we just couldn't fit it in—the tip didn't make the front page.

Add it in the comments, email it to tips at lifehacker.com, or share it on our tips and expert pages. Use Long Loading Times as an Opportunity for Quick-Burst ChoresSpencer finds a use for long loading times in his video games: Advertisement Advertisement I don't store my PC games on an SSD, so the loading times can get a little ridiculous—especially in certain games. I've realized that instead of sitting there complaining about it, I can take that opportunity to bust out a really quick chore—like throwing my dishes in the dishwasher, taking out the trash, or cleaning off my desk/keyboard/mouse with some Clorox. This can probably work for non-video game loading times too, like small downloads or any Adobe program. Use Milk to Reheat Perfect Mac and CheesePhoto by Tony Alter.Craiglloyd shares a tip for mac and cheese enthusiasts: Sponsored If you're a fan of mac and cheese, you probably know that leftover mac and cheese isn't that great, although it's not terrible. However, to give it a little extra kick, stir in a tad bit of milk after you heat it up in the microwave. It'll give the cheese a little bit of added creaminess that it once had!Cipheroid offers another useful suggestion: Advertisement If you want to go in a different direction, try this: put a pat or two of butter in a medium-hot frying pan and fry the mac and cheese on each side until crispy-hot — like you're making hash browns.The cheese helps give it a nice crust, and the inner cheese stays nice and melty. Best leftover mac and cheese evah. Change Yahoo Email Accounts to Yahoo Asia for Free Auto-ForwardingNeil95 discovers a loophole in Yahoo's email service: Advertisement If you want Yahoo to autoforward your emails (say, to Gmail), change your Yahoo to Yahoo Asia. It's the same account, but once you log out you'll be taken to Yahoo Asia instead of the US one (or whichever you use). Not sure why autoforward is free in Asia, but who cares?Instructions (with screenshots):Go to your profileEnter your passwordScroll down to "Account Settings" and select "Set language, Site, Time Zone"Change to "Yahoo Asia" and saveThen go to "Mail Options"Go to "POP and Forwarding", enter the Gmail address, and saveMagic! Use Fewer iOS Icons Per Home Screen for More Efficient App Launchingjvanderh makes our iOS home screens a little less cluttered: Advertisement Only use half of your iPhone home screen to make yourself more efficient. Most likely you use the same few apps constantly, and the visual clutter from the other ones makes finding those slower. Put the second tier ones on the second page, and just use the search function for all the others.For some, this may actually be less efficient, depending on how many different apps you use regularly—you'll just have to try it out and see how it works for you.Reply18 repliesLeave a reply

The HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) started 2013 with a bang by announcing that it had reached "the first settlement involving a breach of unprotected electronic protected health information (ePHI) affecting fewer than 500 individuals" with the Hospice of North Idaho (HONI). Under the resolution agreement, HONI agreed to pay $50,000 and enter into a two-year Corrective Action Plan (Plan) to settle potential violations of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Security Rule stemming from the June 2010 theft of an unencrypted laptop containing the ePHI of 441 HONI patients. As the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH) does not require covered entities to immediately report breaches involving fewer than 500 individuals to OCR so long as they are reported annually, HONI properly reported the theft to OCR in its annual breach report. OCR nonetheless launched an investigation that concluded the following:
In addition to the $50,000 settlement payment, HONI also agreed to enter into a two-year Plan -- perhaps the most onerous aspect of the resolution agreement. The Plan includes the following obligations:
Should HONI breach the Plan, it would be subject to civil monetary penalties.
According to the OCR Press Release, HONI has "taken extensive additional steps" since the June 2010 theft to improve its HIPAA privacy and security compliance program. Nonetheless, OCR Director Leon Rodriguez emphasized that the action "sends a strong message to the healthcare industry that, regardless of size, covered entities must take action and will be held accountable for safeguarding their patients' information." Mr. Rodriguez also stressed the importance of encryption, calling it "an easy method for making lost information unusable, unreadable, and indecipherable."
The Press Release also announced a new educational initiative intended to offer healthcare providers and organizations practical tips on ways to protect their patients' health information when using mobile devices such as laptops, tablets and smartphones. Of the past five HITECH-related resolution agreements published by OCR, all five have involved unencrypted portable electronic devices. To address this problem, OCR has partnered with the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology to provide a new website with videos and other information regarding how to secure and maintain mobile devices.
Here are some observations regarding the importance of this settlement:
Should you need assistance with your year-end breach reporting to OCR or if you would like advice on compliance with HIPAA/HITECH, please contact Lynn Sessions, firstname.lastname@example.com or 713.646.1352, or Theodore J. Kobus, email@example.com or 212.271.1504. *Credit to Cory J. Fox who authored this article.

text: Assassin's Creed IV Might Finally Avoid An Annoying EndingKirk Hamilton7/18/13 9:00pmFiled to: assassin's creedsdcc 2013san diego comic conkotakucoreubisoft1292EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Assassin's Creed games are known for a lot of things: Historical shenanigans, stabbing, inconsistent controls, carts of hay. They're also known for having unsatisfying, bewildering, even downright annoying endings. Advertisement Today, Assassin's Creed IV lead writer Darby McDevitt took to Twitter to answer fan questions via the official Assassin's Creed Twitter account. He was very sure to say that the ending of the new game will be "satisfying." As I've said before, I was disappointed enough with Assassin's Creed III that I'm taking everything about the next game with a heap of grains of salt. That said, it's nice to see that the man writing the game is confident in its ending. Particularly since he's the guy who wrote Revelations, which had easily the strongest ending of all of the main AC games. Reply129 repliesLeave a reply

In response to RFA-CA-12-007, Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP), National Cancer Institute, the Carle Cancer Center located in Urbana, Illinois is applying for continued funding as an East Central Illinois CCOP. The Carle Cancer Center CCOP, consisting of a main base and two components, has been continually funded since the inception of the CCOP in 1983. Carle, now an integrated healthcare organization, brings together a research-driven network of healthcare services. At the core of this network reside the Carle Foundation Hospital, Carle Physician Group and Health Alliance Medical Plans. With a 325-bed Level I trauma hospital, over 300 physician group, and a self-owned health insurance product, the Carle CCOP possesses the resources necessary to further its research mission. Joining the Carle CCOP as component institutions are Rush-Copley Medical Center in Aurora, Illinois and Franciscan St. Anthony Health in Michigan City, Indiana. Altogether, the catchment area consists of over 4 million people of which 1.3 million are minorities. The CCOP's primary research base is located in Urbana, Illinois where all registration, randomization, quality assurance, and data management are conducted. The CCOP's primary research base affiliation is with Alliance. Additionally, the Carle Cancer Center CCOP is long-standing members of the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG), the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP), the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG), the Gynecological Oncology Group (GOG), and the Cancer Trials Support Unit (CTSU). Additionally, this past spring, the Carle Cancer Center CCOP joined the SunCoast CCOP Research Base.

Chapter OneTuesday, October 19, 9:32 a.m.
"You can put your clothes back on, then we'll talk some more."
Kera gave the girl a quick smile and stepped out of the examining room. Jessie, if that was her real name, claimed to be sixteen. But Kera suspected she was younger, maybe all of thirteen or fourteen. The girl was slender, with the small breasts and flawless skin of someone who hadn't grown into her adult body yet.
Kera lingered in the clinic hallway and jotted some notes on Jessie's chart. Genital warts (HPV) on the inner labia treated with liquid nitrogen. Clearly, her client was sexually active, but there was no sign of bruising or abuse. Yet her tender age made Kera wonder if the sex was truly consensual. Sometimes she walked a fine line between respecting a client's sexual privacy and ignoring a potentially abusive situation. She would ask a few probing questions just to make sure Jessie was in a mutually consenting relationship.
Kera gave the girl enough time to get dressed, then knocked lightly and stepped back into the windowless room. Crammed into the eight-by-ten space was an examining table, a cabinet-sink combination, a wheeled stool, and a simple black-cushioned chair. The pale cream walls failed tomake the room seem bigger.
"How long have you been sexually active, Jessie?" Kera took a seat on the stool.
"For a while." The girl flipped her waffle-iron-straight, blond hair off her shoulders and stared defiantly. "Why?"
"Is someone forcing or pressuring you to have intercourse?"
"No." Jessie rolled her eyes.
"This is a safe place to talk about your sexual situation. Everything you say here is confidential."
The girl's gray eyes flashed with irritation. "I said there's no pressure. I like hooking up."
"Do you use contraception?" Sometimes her questions were so routine, Kera felt more like a waitress than a healthcare worker.
The girl shrugged. "Sometimes we use condoms."
The way she used the word "we" gave Kera pause. "Have you had more than one partner?"
Now Jessie hesitated. "Nicole said I didn't have to tell about them."
Kera noted the plural use of "them," but the reference to "Nicole" also caught her attention. She had treated another young girl with genital warts last week, and her name may have been Nicole. It bothered Kera that she didn't remember for sure. But she saw so many young women, and often only once, for about twenty minutes. They came, picked up their pills or antibiotics, and went on their way. Kera knew the work she did was important in a big-picture way, but she wished she saw more proof of it in the everyday details.
"You don't have to tell me about your partners, but you do have to tell them about the genital warts. It's very important that they get treatment, so they don't spread it to others."
"Okay. I'll tell 'em."
"Where do you go to school?"
Again Jessie hesitated. "Spencer High."
Kera was doubtful. But Spencer was only a block away from Kincaid Middle School, which suddenly seemed more likely. And a little disturbing. The girl she had seen last week was a student at Kincaid. And two months earlier, a fourteen-year-old girl from the school had come in for emergency contraception.
Kera made a mental note to look back through the files to see how many kids from Kincaid had visited the clinic in the past six months. And how many of them reported having unprotected sex. Maybe she needed to call the school, find out what kind of sex education they were teaching-if any. Perhaps even conduct an outreach program there, if the school's administrators would let her. Even if young teenagers thought they were ready for sex, they certainly weren't ready to be parents. And nobody was ever prepared to find out they were HIV positive.
"Are you aware that the HIV virus is sexually transmitted?" Kera asked, expecting more eye rolling.
Instead, Jessie seemed to deflate, then spent a long moment looking at her fingernails. When she looked up, she had the same expression Kera used to see on her son's face when he wanted to tell her something, but couldn't. On impulse, Kera pulled a business card out of her jacket pocket and wrote her home e-mail address and cell phone number on the back.
"This is my personal contact information. You can e-mail me if you have questions or concerns that you feel you can't discuss face to face."
Jessie took the card, then quickly looked away.
"I'd like to talk to you about birth control options." Kera handed her a pamphlet from the rack of educational materials on the wall.
"I can't." Jessie shook her head. "You don't know what it's like in our church. If my mother ever found the pills, my life would be ruined." Her distress was palpable.
"It doesn't have to be pills, there are other-"
The girl jumped up and grabbed her backpack. "I gotta go. Thanks for the medicine."
"Wait," Kera called after her.
But Jessie was already out the door, blond hair swinging as she turned into the hall. Disappointed by her failure, Kera finished writing notes on Jessie's chart. Perhaps the girl would come back. She flipped the manila folder closed and scooted off the stool. As Kera moved toward the door, she noticed a tiny pink cell phone on the examining table next to the discarded birth control pamphlet. Jessie must have left it.
Kera grabbed the phone and headed toward the front of the building, hoping to catch Jessie at the front desk. She turned left in the middle of the building where the two main hallways intersected under a giant skylight.
The clinic staff had moved into the new building a few months ago, and Kera loved everything about it. The creamy yellow walls were freshly painted, the stainless steel shined, and nothing was scratched or dingy, yet. Compared to the metal sheds and mud huts she'd worked in during her years in Africa with the International Red Cross, the building was a dream. And compared to the chaos and heartache of the years she spent working in the ER, her time at the clinic felt stress free.
Near the front, the walkway opened on the left into a small reception area where daylight filtered in through opaque floor-to-ceiling windows. Directly in front of her stood the building's entrance, a small enclosed plexiglass foyer with a camera and a locked inner door. Nobody came in without telling the receptionist their name and their business at the clinic. Security was a top priority. Behind the wall to the right was the surgical area where two non-staff physicians performed abortions on Tuesday and Friday mornings.
Beyond the entrance and across the grass, a small group of protestors gathered on the sidewalk. Kera had counted seven as she hurried into work this morning. Now they were lowering their signs and preparing to leave. Like clockwork, they showed up every Tuesday and Friday before 7 a.m. with signs that said things like "Choose Life" and "Don't Murder Your Baby." The group was mostly female, although occasionally a middle-aged man joined in. Kera had come to recognize two of the protestors who participated every week: a young woman of around twenty who looked half starved and always wore red-a symbol of blood, Kera thought-and a tiny middle-aged woman with close-cropped hair who often carried a Bible in addition to her homemade sign. The anti-abortionists called out with cries of "We can help," hoping to attract the attention of the women who entered the clinic in the early hours.
But those activities were over for the day. The protestors were getting into their cars and heading home, and the clinic was unusually quiet. Two young mothers with babies on their hips stood at the counter, where Roselyn, the young Hispanic receptionist, silently stared at the computer screen, searching for information. Another young woman waited in a chair near the front windows. Jessie seemed to be long gone.
As Kera spun around, intending to place Jessie's chart in the to-file basket, thunder boomed, the building shook, and the glass in the front windows blew out. Stunned by the blast, she lost her footing and went down. As she fell, Kera hit her head on the corner of the reception counter and, for a minute, her world went dark.
Chapter TwoTuesday, October 19, 9:45 a.m.
She woke to wailing babies and the sulfur stink of burnt gunpowder. Kera's temple pulsed with pain, but she ignored it. She pushed herself up, felt a cool October breeze blowing through the lobby, and promptly became so dizzy she had to lie back down. What the hell had happened?
Pounding footsteps charged down the hall. Most were muffled, the soft thud of work shoes. Only the director's pumps made sharp staccato sounds as they approached. In the background, the babies kept crying.
"Kera. Are you hurt?" Sheila Brentwood kneeled next to her, the tall woman's voice sounding far away. Lavender-scented hands touched Kera's forehead.
"I don't know." Her own voice seemed distant. "I think I hit my head."
"You did." Sheila turned to someone and said, "Bring some gauze and some ice."
"Has anyone called 911?"
"I am right now."
The excited voices jumbled together, and footsteps thundered in from the reception area. "A client is hurt."
Kera desperately wanted to sit up, to rush to the aid of the injured, but she knew she wasn't ready. "Am I bleeding?" The fog in her brain began to clear, replaced with a sharp sting at her temple.
"Just a little."
Sheila still had the bedside manner of a nurse, but with her black blazer and auburn hair pulled tightly into a bun, she looked like the administrator that she had become.
"Was that a bomb?" Kera asked.
"It blew out the front windows." Andrea, the clinic manager, pressed gauze to Kera's forehead. Andrea's perfectly balanced Japanese features showed worry for the first time since Kera had known her. Kera reached up and tried to push Andrea's hand away. "I'm okay. Go help the others."
"Only one young woman is injured, and both Janine and Julie are with her."
"How badly?"
"There's a three-inch chunk of glass sticking out of her neck." Andrea's voice was soft, but her enunciation was always perfect.
Sirens sounded in the distance. Sheila and Andrea breathed a collective sigh of relief, and Kera willed their young client to hang onto her life. If the girl made it into the emergency room, the ER doctors would save her. Kera had witnessed that miracle many times.
She shuddered to think how many people could have been hurt if this had been a busy Friday afternoon instead of a quiet Tuesday morning. Who could have done such a horrible thing? What were they thinking?
THE WOMAN blinked as the windows blew, and she missed seeing the full effect of the explosion. But the sound was overwhelming. Even from across the street, the noise was bigger than she had expected. It was only her second pipe bomb. The first one-for practice-had been a bit of a dud, so she'd apparently over-corrected this time. But bigger was better. It was the only way to get through to these people. The political channels were too slow, and hundreds of babies' lives were at stake every day.
Accessing the clinic had been quite a challenge. It was new and built with security in mind. There was a camera mounted on each side of the building and not much in the way of shrubbery to hide behind. She had cased the clinic during its first few months from the safety of a group of regular protesters. After methodically planning her moves, she had stopped coming with the group. Today, the navy-blue hooded sweatshirt, jeans, and backpack she had worn made her look like a kid-if the camera even caught her.
Now the sweatshirt and backpack were stuffed under the car seat, and she was just another middle-aged woman in the parking lot at the shopping center across the street. She knew she should get moving, but the sight of women and girls running from the building transfixed her. Upending their ordered little world where they encouraged promiscuity and discarded life was immensely satisfying. She could feel God's approval.
Out of the chaos, a young girl emerged, moving quickly across the parking lot and up the sidewalk toward Commerce Street. For a moment, she thought it might be Jessie Davenport, a young church member and close friend of her daughter. But it couldn't be. Not Jessie, not here. Just someone who looked like her.
The wail of a siren sent a bolt of anxiety through her, and she almost lost control of her bladder. She put the Tahoe in reverse and sped away from the shopping center. She had to hurry home and change before her volunteer shift at the hospital.
DETECTIVE WADE JACKSON turned down Commerce Street and was relieved to see the clinic still standing at the end of the block. The report of a bomb had stunned him. He had lived in Eugene, Oregon, his whole life and had been on the police force for half of it, but had never dealt with a sizable explosion. A few years back, a young male ecoterrorist had set fire to a car lot full of SUVs down near the university, but overall, Eugene was a safe, mid-sized town with a hundred and forty thousand people, many of whom drove around with bumper stickers that said "Visualize World Peace."
As the most experienced detective in a group of sixteen, Jackson typically investigated homicides rather than sex or property crimes. But he didn't have an active investigation at the moment, and the supervising sergeant had asked him to take the lead. A wave of guilt hit the pit of his stomach. Now that he was a single father, every time he took on a new case, for the first few days he effectively abandoned his daughter. And Katie was still struggling with her parents' separation and the fact that her mother chose to continue drinking rather than be part of their family. If this bomb case turned out to be long and complicated, he'd have to give up the lead to another detective.
Jackson pulled into the long narrow parking lot, where he passed a group of women-assorted sizes and ages-huddled on the sidewalk near the street. Two young girls each held a baby on their hips. One wept openly, shoulders heaving, but no one in the group looked bloody. Tension drained from his shoulders. Maybe this would not be as awful as he'd expected. The nightly news for the last three years had led him to associate bombs with body parts scraped off the pavement.
Only a dozen cars, including a black-and-white police unit, were scattered throughout the lot. Jackson slammed into the first open space. He felt for his Sig Sauer and evidence collection bag, then jumped out of the car.
He jogged up the sidewalk toward the main entrance. The intentionally nondescript gray brick building sat on the back curve of the street and sported good visibility on all sides. Its one vulnerability, the windows in the reception area, had been blown out, and a gaping hole exposed its soft yellow inside. A twenty-something Asian woman in light blue scrubs ran out the front door, spotted him immediately, and sprinted down the sidewalk.
She grabbed his arm. "We need an ambulance. Someone's hurt badly."
Jackson started to reach for his cell phone, but in the distance he could hear the wail of the ambulance screaming up West 11th Avenue. Another patrol unit careened into the parking lot and almost hit a blue Toyota pulling out of its space. Jackson motioned for the officer behind the wheel to roll down his window.
"Secure the perimeter," he yelled. "Don't let that car leave. And don't let anyone in that group near the sidewalk leave."
As he looked over at the huddled clinic workers, his eye caught a group of protestors across the street, at the edge of the shopping center. Their signs hung limply at their sides as they stared back at the clinic. "And bring those protestors back over here for questioning."
Then it hit him. This bomb seemed almost inevitable. A few months earlier, one of Portland's abortion clinics had been rocked by violent protests, followed by several pipe bomb explosions. The statewide group that sponsored the Portland protests had a chapter here in town. In hindsight, it was only a matter of time before they turned their attention to Eugene's new clinic. Jackson was glad that his daughter was only fourteen and that he didn't have to worry about her coming to Planned Parenthood for many years.
He turned back to the clinic and started up the front walkway. Shards of white-tinted glass and mangled azalea branches covered the narrow lawn and spilled onto the cement path. The smell of gunpowder wafted past on a warm gust of wind. The combination reminded him of summer afternoons at the firing range.
Once inside, Jackson found himself in a small glass-walled foyer with a camera mounted above the door. But the security system was unmanned at the moment, and he pushed through the unlocked door into the waiting area. Near the massive hole in the front wall, two clinic workers huddled over a young female client, who, from where he stood, looked lifeless. Blood pooled in the area around her head. Jackson rushed over, past the twisted chairs and scattered debris, desperately trying to recall his first aid training. The women weren't wearing white, so Jackson asked, "Is either of you a nurse or doctor?"

I am putting in a sprinkler system for my yard and want some ideas on how
to irrigate my hosta beds. I can water it with the impulse heads from the
lawn, put in mister heads in the hosta beds, or put in a drip system that
will do individual plants. I am not too eager to go the latter route due
to the number of plants that will require lines.
Can anyone give me some ideas on what the pros and cons are for the various
types of methods of watering the hosta beds?

The rise of mobile devices means that Web designers should be building two entirely separate versions of their sites, one for desktop users and another for mobile, writes Web usability expert Jakob Nielsen. That's "a shockingly bad idea," counters Scott Gilbertson: It's far better to use responsive design principles to create a single site capable of adapting to the needs of individual visitors.

History, it's more fun in the Philippines
And in a bid to make this fun history more accessible to the public, the Department of Tourism launched Tuesday its first ever tour itinerary and poster making contest entitled Icons of Greatness.
The competition was unveiled a day after National Hero's day, and capitalizes on the abundance of cultural and historic sites in the Philippines. And also, not incidentally, August is History Month.
