PAVILION Housing has come in for criticism from councillors after a series of complaints from residents.
Guildford Borough councillor Nick Sutcliffe, whose Ash ward includes the Pavilion-managed estates of Underwood Avenue and Ash Hill, said the housing association is failing to deal with maintenance issues, ranging from rotting sheds to path clearing, and also has poor dialogue with its tenants.
Such is Cllr Sutcliffe's concern that he is set to ask the council's scrutiny committee to call the chief executive to account.
Cllr Sutcliffe said: "I am very concerned about the lack of commitment by Pavilion to have a workable system in place by which Pavilion tenants in Ash can play a full part in making their views known."
Although he accepted there had been improvements in Pavilion's performance in the recent months, he said their record was still some way off the mark.
"I have heard of numerous basic customer service problems despite several promises by Pavilion to improve," said Cllr Sutcliffe, pointing to the request for traffic calming measures, improved parking and clean footpaths.
Speaking on behalf of fellow councillors Nigel Manning and John Ades, Cllr Sutcliffe said: "We want to see whether there's a system in place for tenants to get in touch with the housing association."
Fellow Guildford Borough councillor John Ades said for much of 2002 Pavilion's performance had been bad and that their willingness to respond to complaints was very poor.
"I have had problems with them," Cllr Ades said. "Every time you asked them to do something you might as well have been talking to a brass monkey."
However, Cllr Ades said the situation might have improved since he last had dealings with them in the summer.
"I do not know how it is at the moment, but I have had major problems in the past."
Mike Swaddling, spokesman for Pavilion, said: "Although we understand that there will always be individual complaints, we have recently devoted a lot of attention and resources to the Ash Hill estate.
"We have just completed a £635,000 programme to replace windows, doors and guttering and will start on the second phase of this in mid-February."
Commenting on the issue of a communications breakdown, Mr Swaddling said: "We are always anxious to improve communications with our tenants and their elected representatives.
"Our operations director, Dawn Matthews-Smith, has set up a logging system for all inquiries, which are then followed through to ensure a response is sent and all parties are kept informed of progress."
Responding to Mr Swaddling's assurances, Cllr Sutcliffe said: "That's nice to know but we did not know that before.
"We look forward to these arrangements being explained and expanded for the benefit of everyone."

Bauer One.9 limited edition.
What do you guys think of the new LE's from Bauer being all white? http://www.hockeyworldblog.com/wp-co...ed-edition.jpg
Toecap should be grey to match the color of the ALIVE; otherwise atrocious in any case lol
Looks like they inverted the colors on a normal skate. And looks awful.
I always liked the LE's that were black personally... But I just stick the less expensive skates so the LE's have always kind of been out my price range.
looks like the white nikes that are now dubbed as "jordans" from back in the day. they are gross
I like how normal hockey skates are gray and "flashy" ones are white or all black. We're an exciting bunch.
Also, welcome!
That's for someone very confident in their skating skills, or perhaps for someone who's trying to do a modern take on the old green-and-gold Oakland Seals uniforms.
I don't even want to know how bad they will look with some puck marks on them.
thank you!:) i think they will be quite the distraction when someone first got them. Its like when you get white sneakers they catch your eye every time your eyes move!
I own a pair of regular ONE.9s & I don't like the white version at all. I imagine they would be difficult to keep clean
To quote Strange Brew, they look like referee skates!
I'm dating myself here, but they remind of an episode of the original battlestar galactica series:
Nice to look at, but when on the ice, not so much. Puck marks will be a disaster.
white gear is FUGLY ..... also those will look like **** after you take a few pucks of em..
I like the way they look, personally... but agree that it wouldn't last. Unless you intend to hang them on a wall and never wear them, they're going to get scuffed real quickly, and they'll look awful then.
I kind of like how white equipment looks with puck marks on it... guess I'm in the minority here lol. This is not to say that I like these skates, though. These things are nasty. I also dislike the Vapor 7.0 LE's that they had out.
if they were all white, not just white and gray (grey? - i never remember) AND you had the skills to back up the flash...maybe... otherwise no, especially after scuffs/puck marks. I really can't say until I can see it compared to the rest of the uniforn either- but my guess for that is also a big fat no.
(but not white)- less sterile and like you actually put a lot of use into it.
Then again I like how new equipment looks too... hell, I gues I just like hockey equipment, haha!
Don't love 'em, don't hate 'em. I've seen better all/mostly white skates though.
My team's primary color is white; my skates are white/black and gloves are white w/our other color (royal). I like 'em. I clean the puck marks off once in a while but the toe cap is black and they don't get too trashed as is.
Really like these skates. I always want to have a pair like this. Little bit flashy, but can live with it. But to expensive for me, (sorry, for my wife ;-)). I went with the One80.

Picture: Robbie Williams signs autographs for fans while smoking a cigarette outside The Royal Albert Hall London, England - 12.11.09
Singer Robbie Williams has stunned fans by revealing he is preparing to work on an upcoming Take That album with his former bandmates.
The Angels hitmaker delighted the crowd at a fundraising concert for Children In Need on Thursday night (12Nov09) by joining Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald onstage at London's Royal Albert Hall.
Fans waited with bated breath to see if they would sing as a five-piece for the first time since Williams left the group in 1995 - but were left disappointed when the 35 year old did a solo set after his friends had finished their performance.
However, Williams has hinted he will appear on the band's album in the near future, just months after all five were spotted attending a recording studio in New York.
He tells Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper, "The reunion's not happening tonight - we have to wait for something very special.
"The ball is rolling for a Take That album with me. I love them - there's no more hard feelings."
"This is one of those avant-garde things, is it?" says a droll, dubious and dying...

Visit our Shop on ETSY - ETSY.COM/CA/SHOP/CaribooCollectibles
Industrial. Steampunk. Clinical. Fetching. Set of TWO giant-sized 500mL/1 Pint vintage Wheaton Laboratory Chemistry Bottles in unused condition. Dating back to the 1950s, these industrial-grade reagent/apothecary vessels were designed for usage in campuses, pharmacies & laboratories - just about anywhere one could find a druggist, physician or chemist. These mid century bottles make fantastic accent pieces in a curio cabinet and are perfect as movie props, too!
• CON ACID NITRIC HNO3 - This bottle was intended for storing nitric acid and reads "CON ACID NITRIC HNO3". The underside is molded with the maker's mark "Wheaton No-Sol-Vit 9 U.S.A.". One could probably ascertain that 'CON' stands for concentrated and 'DIL' stands for diluted.
• DIL ACID HYDROCHLORIC HCl - This bottle was intended for storing hydrochloric acid and reads "DIL ACID HYDROCHLORIC HCl". The underside is molded with the maker's mark "Wheaton No-Sol-Vit 3 U.S.A.".
• Made by Wheaton Glass, a famous manufacturer of glassware and ceramics.
• Embossed frosted 'acid etch' lettering set atop a recessed circular 'name plate' on the bottle; the raised letters on the outside spell out the chemical systemic name and formula.
• Comes with original conical tapered solid-glass flathead stopper. Uses a ground glass joint to ensure that the stopper has a nice snug fit. Stoppers can be easily removed.
• Glass has a tinge of greenish hue to it which changes slightly under different lighting.
• Bottle measures 3.0" in diameter and 8.0" tall (including inserted stopper).
CONDITION: NOS (New Old Stock) like new; near mint condition free of chips or cracks. Very few tiny scratches. It would appear that no liquids have ever been inside them. Vintage bottles often have manufacturer's anomalies, mold flaws & other imperfections such as air bubbles trapped in the bottle's glass.
These bottles would be perfectly suited as movie props for the film industry.

KICKOFF: Sunday, 8:15 ET
SURFACE: FieldTurf
TV: NBC, Al Michaels, John Madden, Andrea Kremer
19th meeting. Washington leads, 10-8-0. The last time the teams played in the Metrodome, Oct. 18, 1998, the Redskins lost 41-7. Minnesota has won three of the past four meetings.
The Redskins have to do what Chicago neglected to – test the Vikings' secondary, and specifically attack rookie CB Marcus McCauley if Antoine Winfield is out.
RB Clinton Portis is going to have a tough go of it against Minnesota's league-leading run defense, so QB Todd Collins must move the ball through the air. Minnesota applied good pressure Monday night and will have to get more of the same before the Redskins' quick receivers gain separation.
The Vikings emphatically learned Monday night that QB Tarvaris Jackson isn't ready to win games with his arm. He still struggles from occasionally poor mechanics and decision-making, which is understandable for a quarterback with 12 career starts. RBs Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor will again face a constant dose of eight-man fronts – which makes the sledding tough but also can create big plays if either one reaches the second level.
Redskins: QB Jason Campbell (knee) remains out; OLB Rocky McIntosh (torn knee ligaments) was placed on injured reserve.
Vikings: Winfield (strained pectoral muscle) and WR Sidney Rice (ankle sprain) appear unlikely to play.

Northern Hotel Features State-of-the-Art Technology
Billings, Mont., Jan 30, 2013 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- The Northern Hotel today announced it will be the only hotel in a five state region to offer state-of-the-art-technology for special events and business meetings. Guest rooms will also be equipped with the latest technology available for room access and have streaming capability from the event spaces.
"When we designed the Northern, we wanted guests to have the best technological amenities at their disposal. Our goal was for things to appear to be magic but they had to follow the ATM standard--if the technology was harder to operate than an ATM, we didn't want it," said Mike Nelson, co-owner of the Northern. "We have achieved that and will be the only hotel in Montana to offer these advances. Events will truly be memorable with the amenities we offer." The Northern Hotel offers 12,000 square feet of meeting space for group events from 10 to 700 participants. The ballrooms feature a state-of-the art sound system and color-selectable LED theatrical lighting. Hosts of meetings and weddings will be able to implement dramatic lighting effects using an iPad interface. In addition to LED lights that can wash the room in guests' choice of colors, there are spotlights built into the ballrooms to highlight speakers, brides and bands.
The Grand Ballroom has 60 ceiling speakers to provide a conversational sound level, allowing comfortable listening anywhere in the room. For live performances, these speakers can supplement the dance-floor speakers. Two thirteen foot wide, high-definition video screens are located in the main ballrooms to display video and business presentations. Additional monitors are available for the visually impaired and live content from the ballrooms can be streamed to guest rooms.
Eight conference rooms and two boardrooms feature a similar level of technology. Both boardrooms are outfitted with 60-inch Polycom HD video conferencing capabilities and HD 6.1 channel surround sound. The Enterprise board room offers an xBox 360 and wet bar for breaks. An anteroom is outfitted with Internet connections and the ability for assistants to listen in on meetings and video conferences. The P.B. Moss board room features a fireplace and seating for 15. All other conference rooms offer Internet, WiFi, managed sound systems and 10 foot video monitors.
The 160 guest rooms and suites will allow up to 50 hotel channels of custom content, in addition to the 130 channels of satellite HD programming, on 42-inch LCD TVs. They also offer both wired and wireless Internet access. Guest room doors use a combination of RFID and NFC to eliminate the mag stripe cards used by many hotels. This technology provides the highest level of security and convenience for hotel guests. The door locks will support entrance using cell phones when the NFC software is released. This allows frequent travelers to register with their Smartphone and go directly to their room, bypassing the front desk. WiFi connectivity will be available throughout the facility.
"MSU Billings is holding the annual Extended Learning Institute (XLi 2013) conference and is looking for a venue that contributes and enhances the latest technology related to new learning environments, online course delivery and classroom technologies," said Michael Barber, chief information officer, Montana State University Billings. "We found that the newly remodeled Northern Hotel provides a unique set of sound systems, networking and presentation environments which exemplify the learning environments required for higher education. This provides us the opportunity for nationally recognized conferences in a best-in-class environment." ### About the Northern Hotel The Northern Hotel was first established in Billings, Montana in 1902. In March, 2013, after undergoing a complete renovation, the hotel will reopen under new management. With its luxurious design, state-of-the-art technology, and two different dining options, the Northern will once again be the place to stay and to host any event in Montana. For additional information on the Northern, please call 406-867-6767 or visit

Wow. Boy was I pissed off just this past weekend. I had some friends over to hang out. You know the type of party where everyone gets together for adult beverages and appetizers and maybe some grilled deliciousness? Most of my friends used the night as an excuse to get out of being a parent for an evening. I know I did, well, at least that was my intention…
That is until Julie had a bit of an issue with her red wine.
The evening was going very well. Almost too well. You know that feeling that you get when something is about to happen? Well, everyone was getting along and conversation was great. Guys were hanging out around a pile of brush and leaves that we decided to use for a bonfire. Not like we needed an excuse to get out of the house and burn something, but there is something so awesome about standing around a fire and shooting the bull on a crisp evening while enjoying some craft beers.
Ladies were in the house reminiscing and listening to a mega mix of the 90s top hit. I'm told it all went down when Livin' la Vida Loca was blasting on the stereo. Julie hopped up onto my microfiber sofa with red wine in hand and proceeded to dance away to the musical stylings of Ricky Martin. Only problem is that her gyrating caused her to launch the wine in her glass on to the sofa and the off white/cream area rug.
I briefly came in for a B-E-E-R-R-U-N and noticed the ladies sheepishly trying to keep me from the living room. And. There. It. Was… Thankfully, beer drinking turns me into a happy comedian. Man, I absolutely despise angry drunks. What a downer on a fun time those people are, but I digress. Anyway, I remembered a recommendation that I got a while back from a buddy of mine for a top notch Longmont carpet cleaning service and thankfully they answered the phone late on a Friday night. They had me blot the stain, making sure not to actually rub the stain because they said this can actually drive the stain into the carpet. They had me pour some cold water on the stains and blot again. Then, they suggested putting some salt on the stain and letting it sit overnight. I was told that they would be out in the morning to perform their red wine removal service.
The next morning the fine folks at Longmont Carpet Care showed up and used some sort of crazy red wine removal product. By the time they were done cleaning, I could not even tell that the spill had even happened. I was totally amazed and thoroughly impressed at both their knowledge, technique, and overall customer service. Their phone number now resides in my cell phone should the unfortunate occur again. Here's hoping that it doesn't, but hey, you never know, right?

Mesa Verde National Park
Designated a national park in 1906, it is the largest archaeological preserve in the united States. There are approximately 4000 archaeological sites and 600 separate cliff dwellings at the site. Mesa Verde dates from 550 A.D. and was inhabited continuously until around 1300 A.D., when the Anasazi left the area for reasons unknown. At the peak of their time here, it is estimated that between 30,000 and 40,000 people lived here in 1100 A.D. Their stone cities were well preserved due to where they were built......in steep canyon walls, well hidden from the occasional traveler who may have drifted through the area on the mesa tops, above the dwellings. A wonder to behold, you really feel like you are stepping back in time when you walk through these structures. A pristine and almost perfectly preserved national treasure.
Thank you for looking at my work.
Thank You!

U.S. Visa Overview
Immigrant visas are for foreign nationals who seek to enter the United States to live and work permanently. Immigrant visas may be filed based on family-based immigration, employment-based immigration and diversity immigration. There is a maximum number of visas issued per year which is divided into those categories.
What is a Non-Immigrant Visa?
Nonimmigrant visas are for foreign nationals who do not intend on staying permanently in the U.S., such as tourists and business visitors. Non-immigrant visas are the most common sort of visa in the U.S. immigration system. Which type of non-immigrant visa someone holds determines how long they are allowed to stay in the country and what sort of activities they can undertake. There are eighteen types of nonimmigrant visas, so it is important to contact an immigration attorney to see which non-immigrant visa is right for you.
Fiancé Visas
Are you engaged to a non-citizen? You can bring your fiancé to the United States to get married by filing a petition with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Office. The fiancé visa program, or K-1 visa, allows non-citizens to come to the United States with their citizen fiancés, under certain conditions. The marriage must take place within 90 days of entering the U.S. and the couple may be interviewed by the USCIS to show that the marriage is legitimate and not solely for the purpose of gaining entry into the United States.
Once the application is approved, it is valid for four months, during which time the foreign fiancé may travel to the United States. The petition can also be extended, however if your fiancé(e) intends to live and work permanently in the United States, your fiancé(e) should apply to become a permanent resident after your marriage. For more information on fiancé visas, consult an Immigration Attorney in your area today.
For more information on fiance visas, be sure to contact an immigration attorney.
What is the Visa Waiver Program?
This program allows nationals of certain countries to enter the U.S. for a short period time. Tourists or business visitors from the selected countries are allowed entry into the U.S. without a visa for up to 90 days. To register for this program, an online application must be submitted. This pre-approval is required to register for online travel clearance, and should be submitted no later than 72 hours before departing the U.S.
Family Based Visas
Do you need a family-based visa? The U.S. Immigration laws highly value family unification and therefore allow for a person to obtain a family based visa. The laws carefully define the family relationships which form the basis for an immigration visa. Immediate relatives such as spouses, unmarried children under 20 years old, and parents of a U¬S citizen may be eligible for this type of visa. However, other family members, who aren't considered "immediate relatives" under the laws, may not be able to obtain a visa as readily. Because such visas are generally limited, it may take several years before one is available for a foreign relative.
For more information on family-based immigrant visas, contact a qualified immigration lawyer.

Sinkhole in downtown Sioux Falls keeps growing
SIOUX FALLS (AP) — A sinkhole in downtown Sioux Falls keeps growing.
KELO-TV reports it started a week ago just south of the intersection of 14th Street and Phillips Avenue and it keeps getting bigger.
The pit is now surrounded by construction barriers and requires a roadblock.
Public Works Director Mark Cotter says the problem is due to a failure in the pipe connecting the private property to the city's main sewer pipes under Phillips Avenue.

Is it too early to start worrying? Our panel takes a look at the panic meter of five teams looking to rebound from ominous starts to the season.
1. Panic Meter: How worried should Knicks fans be, from 0 to 10?
Jim Cavan, KnickerBlogger: 9.9999. The situation couldn't be any more far-flung from last season's 6-0 start, with hot shooting and quick chemistry being usurped by deep droughts and deafening doubts. Losing Tyson Chandler could force the Knicks to get their rotational house in order, but it'll all be for naught if Woodson can't get Andrea Bargnani -- now the de facto starting center -- to commit at the other end.
Amin Elhassan, ESPN Insider: 6. Chandler is the linchpin to the Knicks' defense, and his impact can't be understated. He not only erases many of the mistakes of his less-defensively inclined teammates, but also serves as the point person for the team defensive schemes, guiding his teammates vocally like a middle linebacker in football. The "good" news is he should be back by the end of December, so no cause to hit the panic meter to the max.
Matt McHale, TrueHoop Network: 7. Amar'e Stoudemire is playing so poorly (3.5 PPG, 4 TO, PER -5.17) that Charles Barkley says he's lost his talent, and Chandler is going to miss four to six weeks. That's more than $35 million in dead salary until Chandler returns. Add in the fact that this team is well below average on offense (22nd in offensive efficiency) and can't hit 3s (29.9 percent), and it's clear there's not much positive going on in the Big Apple.
Darius Soriano, Forum Blue And Gold: 7. With Chandler hurt and the team still not playing to an identity that suits its personnel, expectations of a deep playoff run need to be lowered to hoping to get out of the first round.
David Walker, Roundball Mining Co.: 9. It's cliché to call any one player the "anchor" of a team's defense, but in Chandler's case, there really is no other way to describe him. The Knicks will try to muster anything they can out of Kenyon Martin and Bargnani, but the diminishing returns are almost sure to be catastrophic.
2. Panic Meter: How worried should Bulls fans be, from 0 to 10?
Cavan: 1. Philly's plucky blindsiding notwithstanding, three of the Bulls' first four opponents made it to the second round of last season's playoffs. If I'm the rusty Derrick Rose, I can't imagine a more bracing Brillo pad. Assuming everyone gets back to full health, there's nothing stopping Chicago from snagging a top spot.
Elhassan: 1. This should have been expected. Rose missed an entire year! To expect him to walk right in and look like he never left is far too idealistic. Even though he looks fine physically, he's still searching for his timing and adjusting to playing full-speed competitive NBA basketball. Likewise, his teammates are trying to figure out how to retain the offensive aggression they developed in Rose's absence while still allowing their best player to lead them.
McHale: 8. The Bulls are a bad team right now. They're 26th in offensive efficiency and 16th in defensive efficiency. They look out of sync in every area. And what's up with Rose? The adequate scoring (15.0 PPG), poor shooting (31.3 percent) and high turnover rate (5.3 per game) are somewhat understandable for a guy who missed a full season. But his PER is 3.10! He's not doing anything well, and neither are the Bulls.
Soriano: 5. Integrating Rose was always going to be a process that took time, and the Bulls are experiencing those pains now. That said, if Rose continues to struggle and the team can't find its stride through the first 25 games, this answer will be much different.
Walker: 3. Rose is rounding into form slowly, and Joakim Noah still is far from 100 percent, but this team's track record leaves little to worry about. The NBA season is long and Chicago can afford another week or so of stumbling without even so much as sacrificing a shot at 60 wins.
3. Panic Meter: How worried should Nuggets fans be, from 0 to 10?
Cavan: 6. The middling defense hasn't completely fallen off, but the offense has been a shell of last season's Showtime proxy. Chalk it up to what you will -- Andre Iguodala's departure, Danilo Gallinari's absence or rookie coach Brian Shaw's itchy rotational trigger finger -- the Nuggets are a hot mess. The good news: That first-round pick from the Knicks is looking mighty good.
Elhassan: 8. With Wilson Chandler out indefinitely and Gallinari out for what could end up being the entire season, Denver has to find a way to keep the ship afloat. In a hyper-competitive Western Conference, where as many as six teams are fighting for the final two playoff seeds, it will be tough to make up ground later if it falls too far behind.
McHale: 9. With all due respect to Shaw and the departed Iguodala, George Karl was the most important person on the Nuggets last season. His particular brand of regular-season black magic (not to mention a rapid pace and highly efficient offense) coaxed 57 wins out of a roster that did not include a single high-level star. This team -- which is struggling to defend or score -- has high-lottery pick potential.
Soriano: 9. Shaw seems to want to play a style that his roster isn't capable of. This has him scrambling to find workable lineups while seeking out an identity that may not be achievable. This is not a good recipe for success.
Walker: 7. Only because expectations were tempered before the start of the season and Denver is still missing two of its top three players. That said, Shaw's curious early strategy to try and run the offense through the bigs in the post has gone predictably awry. The rest of the Nuggets' season hinges on his ability to adjust.
4. Panic Meter: How worried should Grizzlies fans be, from 0 to 10?
Cavan: 5. Playoff imminence aside, it's easy to wonder whether the West brass has passed the Grizzlies by. Their once ironclad D has suddenly turned porous, while getting buckets continues to be a Spielbergian adventure. If anyone's going to marshal Memphis out of the wilderness, it has to be Mike Conley, who -- minus his shooting from deep -- is playing some of his best ball yet.
Elhassan: 2. Part of Memphis' slow start can be chalked up to adjusting to a new coach, Dave Joerger, with a different philosophy, and part can be attributed to small sample-size theater: It's been only five games! The only reason this isn't a 1 is because continued struggles will erode at the confidence of a first-time head coach.
McHale: 6. It was fun watching the Grizzlies reinvent the twin towers concept. Seeing Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph dominate the paint each night was a throwback to those immortal McHale-Parish and Olajuwon-Sampson frontcourts of the 1980s. But this isn't the '80s, and there's no telling how long this formula can be sustained. It doesn't help that the Griz can't space the floor with their 3-point shooting (32.9 percent), and their elite defense has all but disappeared.
Soriano: 6. Randolph's slow start (11.2 PPG, 7.6 RPG) and a sluggish team performance that started the season is a concern, but this group still has the defensive talent and strong interior play to find its rhythm as the season progresses.
Walker: 5. This is tough, so I'll just split the difference. Teams finally seemed to have figured out that they don't have to register Tayshaun Prince's existence on offense anymore and, more worryingly, their lauded defense has been badly gashed thus far. Still, I have enough faith in the roster that they'll at least get the defense back on track.
5. Panic Meter: How worried should Lakers fans be, from 0 to 10?
Cavan: 0. Doesn't "panic" imply that you expected them to be good? Well, the Lakers aren't good. The question is whether they're bad enough to guarantee themselves a nice, shiny WigginsRandleExum. And that question likely hinges on how maniacal Kobe Bryant is about suiting up ASAP. Anyway, the answer is zero, because things will work out sooner rather than later for the Lakers. They always do.
Elhassan: 0. If you're a rational Laker fan, you knew there would be highs (beating the Clippers in the home opener, beating Dwight Howard and the Rockets on the road) and lows (getting demolished by the Warriors and Mavs). Even when Bryant returns, this team will still be fighting for a seventh or eighth seed with as many as five other teams. In the words of Denny Green, the Lakers are who we thought they were.
McHale: 5. The Lakers were going to struggle. Everybody knew that. What we did not know was that Steve Nash (7.6 PPG, 5.2 APG, 8.07 PER) would retire without telling anyone. Or that he would still be suffering nerve damage from a broken leg last year. We also didn't know that Pau Gasol (career-low 36.8 percent shooting) would seemingly be more comfortable shooting 3s (42.9 percent) than scoring in the paint. Call it the D'Antoni Effect.
Soriano: 5. It's really difficult to judge this team fully without Kobe. But even with the severe swings of play, they've already shown they have some potential diamonds in the rough who can grow into solid contributors over the course of the season. Combine that with lowered expectations, and there shouldn't be big concerns with where they are right now.
Walker: 1. If we factor out those whose delusions would skew the scale, I'd say Lakers fans should be holding steady at a 1 right now. Have you seen their roster? At 3-3 overall, I'd say they are sitting pretty.

Top 5 UK Christmas fairs 2013
Ok, so the Christmas TV ads are out and it's less than a week until advent – I think it's safe to mention Christmas now - well, shopping to be precise! Imagine this... It's 3pm on Christmas Eve and you are still several presents down. Dad's easy enough to please with the usual smelly cheese and liqueur chocolates from Waitrose but Mum's a bit trickier. You've seen the perfect thing for her online which you wished you'd bought at the time, but stupidly delayed in the hope that something better might turn up – however now postage deadlines are long gone! So your only option is to face the glaring artificial lights and mayhem of the high street stores as hundreds swarm to get the early sale bargains and last minute gifts. You hastly grab a M&S jumper – and despite being in the wrong size you cling to the idea that it's the thought that counts and that anything is better than returning empty handed!
Selvedge Winter Fair
Fri 29th Nov 11am – 5pm, 6pm – 8pm / Sat 30th Nov 10am – 5pm
Chelsea Old Town Hall
Admission £7.50
Craft lovers can look forward to another expertly curated, magazine affiliated extravaganza this coming weekend in the form of Selvedge Winter Fair at Chelsea Old Town Hall. For those that have not heard of Selvedge Magazine it's a stunning image led, bimonthly publication that "covers every facet of textiles" - at its annual Winter fair you can expect no less! The two day event brings together a handpicked mix of the highest quality textile based sellers with antique textile stalls, talented designer makers, unique fashion designers and vintage haberdasheries set against a spectacular historical backdrop complete with its own vintage style tea rooms. For those of you too busy to pop along in the daytime there is no need to miss out as there is also a reception on Friday evening!
Magpie and I Spiegeltent Christmas Fair
Sat 30th Nov / Sun 1st Dec 11am – 4.30pm
Waterfront Square, Bristol
Admission Free
I can't think of a better place to hold a vintage and craft fair with seasonal sparkle than in a magical Speigeltent or 'mirror tent', as it is literally translated. Built in Holland in the early 20th century as travelling ballrooms, these purpose built entertainment venues exude 1920s glamour and are a real treat for any visitor. This Christmas, a fine example known as 'The Crystal Palace' will play host to a variety of Bristol's finest vintage and handmade sellers. As well as catering for craft lovers, the event promises to entertain the whole family with Santa's grotto, live music + dancing, fairground, bar and eateries!
Sat 30th Nov 10.30am - 5.30pm / Sun 1st Dec 11am - 4.30pm
The Old Vintage Warehouse Building, Hockley, Nottingham
Admission £1
Something for those of you a little further North! Pretty Dandy is an independent online interiors boutique that specialises in handmade and vintage homewares - originally based in Nottingham, but now run from Barcelona. After a successful fair last year, owner Becky Knight is again marking the festive season by putting on the interiors focused Pretty Dandy Flea in a funky industrial warehouse venue. The event takes place over two days – the first being the classic fair - the "famous mix of art craft and fun", and the second, a little more of a festive offering -"the usual wonderful range of goodies, with extra Christmas sparkle stirred in." Alongside stalls there will be pop up cafe, gourmet food stalls and live DJs. What's more, if you do fancy popping along both days you only have to pay once!
Sat 7th Dec 10am – 3pm
Chipping Sodbury Town Hall
Admission £1
Running since 2008, this long standing fair is a must to mark in any vintage lover's calendar. It does exactly what is says on the tin and more. Yes it does vintage and yes there's plenty of handmade pieces but what makes this fair special is that most sellers combine the two; they are talented crafters who don't just collect antiques but cleverly incorporate their finds - whether it be vintage fabric, buttons or trinkets - into quirky creations that make beautiful unique gifts. This year the charming Cotswold venue of Chipping Sodbury town hall will play host to over 30 independent sellers including vintage inspired doll maker Nostalgia at the Stonehouse , ultra feminine ceramicist Claire Baker and all round beautiful thing maker Christine Nulmeyers of Tales From the Sea Garden to name but a few. Also on hand for that essential cake stop will be the vintage tea room offering delicious homemade treats on chintzy china.
7th - 8th Dec 11am - 5pm - Dogstar Brixton
14th Dec 12pm - 6pm - Bussey Building Peckham
Admission Free
Not fussed by vintage? Fed up of shabby chic? Then Crafty Fox Market is for you. Named "one of London's best craft markets" by Timeout, the fair has been growing rapidly since 2010 and this year will showcase 120 of the UK's freshest designer makers and emerging talents spanning interiors, fashion and jewellery – 50% of which are new this year courtesy of guest curators Lara Watson and Charlie Moorby of the Mollie Makes editorial team. Expect bright graphic and geometric print textiles from the likes of Kate Clarke, Ada and Flow, and Jonna x Kangan as well as the witty creations of quirky illustrators Jimbobart and Ella Masters with several locally inspired London based makers, including Lucy Loves This and Garudio Studiag, thrown in. Budding crafters can also participate in a number of workshops hosted by the likes of Lisa Levis (nee Stickley), Sew Pretty and Pom Pom Quarterly. The market spreads across three days and two locations with a completely new cast each day so I recommend you go to the website to plan your visit in advance or, if you're as keen as me, go to all three! Organisers claim this isn't your ordinary handmade market and take pride in "shaking up the traditional craft fair" indeed with trendy South London nightclub venues and live DJs throughout the day they sound like a far cry from the village hall WI.
Thanks for ths fab round up Pippa! I will definitely have to pop by some of these events!

Thanks for the round-up Pippa, I didn't know the Pretty Dandy Flea was this weekend, so hopefully I can make it!ReplyDelete
Hi Pippa,ReplyDelete
This is strange.
"spiegeltent" is a Dutch word.
I like all the posters. Especially the one with the bear on it.

Increased vertebral morphometric fracture in patients with postsurgical hypoparathyroidism despite normal bone mineral density
The mechanism behind parathyroid hormone (PTH) activation of bone remodeling is intimately dependent on the time of exposure of bone cells to hormone levels. Sustained high PTH levels trigger catabolism, while transitory elevations induce anabolism. The effects of hypoparathyroidism (PhPT) on bone are unknown. The objective was to study the impact of PhPT on bone mineral density (BMD), on the frequency of subclinical vertebral fracture and on mandible morphometry.
The study comprised thirty-three postmenopausal women, 17 controls (CG) and 16 with PhPT (PhPTG) matched for age, weight and height. Bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spine, total hip and 1/3 radius, radiographic evaluation of vertebral morphometry, panoramic radiography of the mandible, and biochemical evaluation of mineral metabolism and bone remodeling were evaluated in both groups.
There were no significant differences in lumbar spine or total hip BMD between groups. There was marked heterogeneity of lumbar spine BMD in PhPTG (high = 4, normal = 9, osteopenia = 1, and osteoporosis = 2 patients). BMD was decreased in the 1/3 radius in PhPTG
The study suggests that vertebral fragility occurs in PhPT despite normal or even high BMD. The current results encourage further studies to evaluate the use of panoramic radiography in the identification of osteometabolic disorders, such as PhPT and the development of a more physiological treatment for PhPT.
During this decade a remarkable advance has occurred in the knowledge about the molecular and cellular action of PTH on bone
Although the risk of fracture increases significantly with decreasing BMD, large observational studies have demonstrated that osteoporotic fractures can occur across a wide spectrum of BMDs
The present study was designed to evaluate BMD (lumbar spine, total hip, femoral neck, 1/3 radius and total body), vertebral subclinical fracture and cortical thickness in the inferior region of the mandible in a homogenous group of patients with chronic PhPT. All patients were women previously submitted to thyroidectomy due to atoxic benign multinodular goiter. Additionally, we assessed serum levels of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I), receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANK-L), osteoprotegerin (OPG), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH-D), and bone remodeling markers [serum osteocalcina (OC) and urinary deoxypyridinoline (DPD)].
Subjects and methods
The study was conducted on 33 postmenopausal women whose clinical characteristics are shown in Table
The control group (CG) consisted of 17 adult women, matched to the PhPTG for age, weight, height and body mass index (BMI) (Table
The PhPT group had been on treatment for 15.3 ± 12.4 years, with daily intake of elemental calcium, calcitriol and L-thyroxin of 1713 ± 419 mg, 0.33 ± 0.18 μg and 99.3 ± 42.1 μg, respectively. The treatment target was to maintain serum total calcium in the lower limit of normal reference values and to keep serum levels of phosphorus and TSH in the normal range. We excluded from this group all individuals with a history of hyperthyroidism and those with a diagnosis of thyroid cancer, as well as individuals with a diagnosis of pseudohypoparathyroidism and autoimmune hypoparathyroidism.
Blood and urine collections and radiographic documentation were performed on two days. On the first day, blood and second void urine were samples collected in the morning between 7:00 and 9:00 after a 10–12 hour fast and kept in an ice-chilled container until centrifugation. Serum aliquots were stored at −70°C until assessment, with all determinations being carried out in the same assay. Subsequently, the volunteers were taken to the Image Center of the University Hospital, FMRP-USP, for DXA (dual energy X-ray absorptiometry) scan in total body, lumbar spine, proximal femur and forearm and standard thoracic and lumbar spine X-rays. On the second day, the individuals went to the Radiology Service of the Dental School of Ribeirão Preto, USP, to perform digital panoramic radiography.
Serum levels of calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase and creatinine were determined with an automatic biochemical analyzer (KoneLab 6.0, Winer, Argentina) on the day of blood collection. Serum IGF-I was measured by enzyme immunoassay [intra-assay coefficient of variation (CV) = 9.5%; Immunodiagnostic Systems, Fountain Hills, AZ]. Also, serum OC (CV = 5.6%; Quidel, San Diego, CA, USA), 25-OH-D (CV = 7.2%; Immunodiagnostic System, Fountain Hills, AZ), OPG (CV = 5.6%; Quidel, San Diego, CA, USA) and RANKL (CV = 6.8%; Biomedica, Austria) and urinary DPD (CV = 6.7%; Quidel, San Diego, CA, USA), were measured by enzyme immunoassay. Serum PTH was measured by chemiluminescence (CV = 4.7%; SIEMENS, Los Angeles, CA, USA).
Bone mineral density
BMD was measured by DXA at the femoral neck, total hip, lumbar spine (L1-L4) and distal radius by a trained radiologic technician (Hologic 4500 W densitometer, Hologic Inc., Bedford, MA, USA).
Vertebral morphometry
Lateral thoracic and lumbar spine radiographs were taken for each patient and images were digitized using a Vidar DiagnosticPro scanner with a spatial resolution of 84 m and the gray scale represented by 8 bits/pixel. Six points were marked with electronic calipers on each of the 13 vertebral bodies from T4 to L4 using K-PACS Workstation software, v 1.6.0. These points were positioned on the outer edge of the upper and lower endplates. Using the six points, the anterior, middle and posterior heights were determined for each vertebral body in millimeters. Image analysis was carried out by consensus between 2 radiologists, both performed by blind assessment. A senior musculoskeletal radiologist reviewed all images in which any of the measured vertebral height ratios in a single film was <0.75 and also solved difficult cases when any doubt was present regarding the positioning of the calipers or to check if the encountered deformity was related to pathologies other than insufficiency fractures. The last analysis was also performed by blind assessment.
The criteria of vertebral deformity were: 1) more than a 20% reduction between two of the above measures and/or a 20% reduction in the relation between any one of the above measurements and the measurement of the corresponding region of the vertebral body immediately superior or inferior to each vertebral body analyzed, or 2) a reduction ≥ 4 mm in the absolute vertebral height value in relation to the other heights in the same vertebral body and in relation to the similar height in the immediate neighboring vertebral bodies.
Panoramic radiograph
All panoramic radiographs were obtained with an RX Veraviewepocs Digital Panoramic instrument (J. Morita Co). Digital images were examined with RADIOIMP software (Radiomemory, Brazil). In this panoramic images, the thickness of the inferior cortical region of the mandible bone were measured on both sides and in two regions (mental and goniac). The digital panoramic radiograph was inserted into the software and calibrated using magnification (30%) and resolution (300 d.p.i.) factors
Statistical analysis
All statistical analyses were performed using SAS 9.0 software (SAS/STAT® User's guide version 9.0, Cary, NC, USA: SAS Institute Inc., 2002). The Student t–test was applied using the PROC
Serum levels of total calcium (CG = 2.43 ± 0.13 vs PhPTG = 2.05 ± 0.21 mmol/L;
Circulatory levels of the biochemical marker of bone formation, OC, were significantly lower in PhPTG (6.75 ± 2.36 μg/L) than in CG (9.64 ± 2.54 μg/L),
Total body BMD was slightly higher in PhPTG (0.923 ± 0.13 g/cm2) than in CG (0.904 ± 0.10 g/cm2). The mean values of lumbar spine BMD did not differ significantly between groups (CG = 0.970 ± 0.15 g/cm2 vs PhPTG = 1.093 ± 0.26 g/cm2). However, there was wide heterogeneity of T-score distribution within PhPTG, with 4 patients presenting a high T-score (> + 2.0 SD), 9 patients presenting a normal T-score (between +2 and −1.0 SD), 1 patient presenting a T-score compatible with osteopenia, and 2 patients presenting L1-L4 BMD compatible with osteoporosis (T-score < −2.5 SD) (Figure

There was a significant correlation between the duration of postsurgical hypoparathyroidism and lumbar spine BMD (Figure

There was no significant difference between groups regarding inferior cortical thickness in the region of the mandible angle (goniac). Inferior cortical thickness in the mental mandible was significantly decreased in PhPTG (Table
Skeletal fracture has not been considered a potential problem in postsurgical hypoparathyroidism, especially after clinical investigation, based on surrogate parameters, have shown that BMD is preserved or even enhanced in PhPT
There are studies showing a differential impact of PhPT on diverse bone sites, the increase in BMD being higher in the lumbar spine than in the proximal femur
It should be mentioned that BMD assessment by DXA in PhPT was comparable to that described in primary hyperparathyroidism. It is well known that cortical bone is preferentially affected by primary hyperparathyroidism, and the same pattern was observed in PhPT. It should be pointed out that the control group also had distal forearm BMD within the osteopenia range, a fact possibly related to population characteristics, since the same profile was observed in normal individuals in previous studies performed in our laboratory
Despite the BMD of the lumbar spine, 63% of patients with PhPT showed at least one morphometric fracture in the dorsal/lumbar spine, and morphometric fractures were also detected in patients showing high bone mass. No study has previously evaluated fracture susceptibility in PhPT. The results indicate deterioration of bone quality, the other component that assures bone strength. A previous study
Other factors must be taken into account regarding impairment of bone strength in PhPT patients, especially in those with high BMD. Thickening of trabecular bone could compromise bone strength by reducing resilience
Previous studies have shown that growth hormone deficiency impairs PTH circadian rhythm
Previous studies have shown increased serum levels of RANKL and maintained OPG levels in primary hyperparathyroidism
The present study has some limitation; the number of patients studied was insufficient to definitively associate postsurgical hypoparathyroidism with increased fracture risk. However, these are important preliminary data for a more comprehensive study to examine the dissociation between bone fragility and bone mineral density in patients harboring postsurgical hypoparathyroidism.
Our results suggest that PhPT has a great impact on bone structure which is not necessarily detected by BMD density. Subclinical vertebral fracture was identified in more than 60% of PhPT patients, including those exhibiting high BMD. Panoramic radiography of the mandible should be thoroughly scrutinized to determine its place in the diagnosis or screening of osteoporosis. This site was useful to reveal cortical changes in PhPT. Panoramic radiography has the additional advantage of relying on a dentist for the screening of osteoporotic patients. The study encourages further investigation to determine the role of PTH as hormone replacement therapy in postsurgical hypoparathyroidism.

I finish sending the last email, almost throwing my laptop across the room so I wouldn't have to answer any more questions about Jared's schedule. It's almost 6 in the afternoon and I should have been at home at five. Jared still hasn't appeared and his inbox fills way too fast for me to handle it.
When I hear the front door shut, I sigh in relief, one more minute and I would have gone crazy.
"What are you doing here? People are going to think I exploit you!" Jared laughs, entering the room with bags from Whole Foods, "You look really tired"
I am. But I just forget about everything the minute his eyes lay on mine. I start playing with the ring on my hand, remembering why I can't allow myself to get consumed by his gaze and the way his body reacts to my intent of distraction.
"Well, you look even prettier when you are tired" He says, leaving his bags on his desk, I can feel all the air in my body stopping, not being able to continue its course, "How is that even possible?"
You can't, I start saying to myself, stop it.
"Sometimes, when you find something that lightens your day, even the most tired people can… Glow"
Oh no, you did not just say that. So silly.
I can notice a small change on the way his jaw tightens, I know I'm saying this words because of him, but he doesn't seem to get it. His head points to my hands, and a forced smile appears on his lips.
"You going out with… What's his name?"
"Kevin" I answer, even though I'm sure he knows my fiancé's name.
"Right" He sighs, still on his feet by his desk, "What time? Because it's already 6 o'clock"
I check the clock on my wrist, I have an hour and a half to go home and get ready. Enough time to be able to stay for an extra couple of minutes in here.
"7:30" I say getting on my feet.
We share another look before changing our gaze completely. I save my laptop on my bag, check my phone, put my jacket on, but I'm still not ready to go. Everyday was the same. I would be happy at home, spending the night with Kevin, waking up in the morning to have breakfast together. But then, I would have to come here, hating myself half of the day, not believing the way my heart would race whenever my boss was near me. And by the time I had to go home, go back to my fiancé, to my reality, I just wouldn't want to leave.
"I'll see you monday morning" I mutter, adjusting the bag on my shoulder.
Jared is now sitting on his desk, displaying all his food. His head raises to look me in the eyes, a small smile appearing on his lips. I know I'm smiling too, and it makes me feel like an idiot.
You're engaged, you're engaged…
"Have fun tonight" He says, but I can see in his eyes that he doesn't really mean it.
I nod, spending at least a whole more minute just staring at him. I have to stop, this is becoming really creepy.
By the time I decide I really need to leave, my phone starts buzzing. Kevin's name appears on the screen, and I ignore the phone call till I'm inside my car. He sounds so happy, as always, and I try to imitate his tone as best as I can.
Once I get home I start getting ready for my date. A quick shower, dry my hair, pick my outfit and finally make up. My mind should be busy with the task at hand, but I can't keep Jared's smile off my head. I start wondering about him. Is he eating alone or did he invite someone else? A friend? A… lover?
The thought makes me uneasy, and I try to find an excuse to just give him a call, something that I forgot to tell him, or something that I may have left on my desk. Anything. By the time I dial his number I still don't have an excuse, but I'm doing it anyway.
"It's almost 7:30" He says from the other side of the line.
"I know" I mutter, giving another look at my ring, "I'm ready"
"Loverboy hasn't appeared yet?"
I stay quiet for a couple of seconds, processing his almost angry tone of voice and the fact that he just called Kevin "Loverboy".
"He's on his way" I mutter.
The silence that comes after my answer is awkward, and I just want to punch myself in the face for calling Jared before my date.
"So, why did you call?"
"I think I forgot my… my…" I stutter, trying to think of something, when the thought of actually forgetting something at his house takes over my mind, "My glasses, I think they are in the kitchen"
"Oh, let me see"
I hear how he stands from whenever he's sitting; his steps, the sound of a door, more steps. My doorbell rings right at the moment I hear the sound of the phone being put back on his ear.
"They are here"
"Good, can I go pick them up?" I ask, starting to walk towards the door.
"Now?" He asks laughing, and the sound of the ring makes him shut, "I think loverboy arrived"
"I have to go, thanks, Jared"
I hang, avoiding hear him say goodbye. I sigh deeply before having the guts to open the door, and change my expression of disappointment to complete happiness.
I'm engaged, I repeat myself.
Kevin doesn't notice how distracted I am during our way to the restaurant, or how I avoid looking him in the eyes. I feel guilty for having another man in my mind, for wishing it was Jared who was in the car with me. But the night goes on, and I hear him talk about work, and how Jay, his best friend, almost broke a leg trying to get a date with one of their co-workers.
In the middle of dinner, the topic of our marriage starts coming out. Kevin has found a venue and wants me to see it, he thinks that it would be a bit small for all the people we want to invite, but he thinks we can handle it.
I nod, feeling a strange pinch on my chest. Kevin starts to notice how distant I'm being, and I excuse myself to go to the bathroom. The bathroom is not empty, and the eyes of a girl go straight to my face. I don't know her, but a smile appear on her lips.
"You escaped too?"
I nod, taking my phone out of purse, I have a text from Jared and I'm too on edge to read it right this second.
"I think my boyfriend is going to propose" The girl says, and the black mane falls covering her eyes when she lowers her head, "I'm not ready"
"Why not?" I ask her, leaning on one of the sinks.
"I'm not sure I love him enough to spend the rest of my life by his side" The girl confesses, and the familiarity of the situation makes me gasp, "I love him, I know I do. But what if I say yes and I end up finding the right one when it's already too late?"
Why know? Right when my mind is already too busy with my own situation.
"If you say yes, and you find the one, what would you do?" I ask her, and I can feel the trembling on my voice.
"I don't know, what else could I do but make the right decision for my heart?"
I nod, changing my gaze from the girl to my phone, deciding to read Jared's message.
"Tell loverboy that if he doesn't buy you champagne and strawberries, tells you how much he loves you, and ends the night with the best sex someone could ever offer, I'm taking you away from him"
"You're crying" I hear the girl whisper.
I nod, "I think I have to make the right decision for my heart"
"Me too" She says, walking towards me to hold my hand, "Wish me luck"
"Break a leg" I mutter, squeezing her hand for a second.
The nameless girl leaves the bathroom, leaving me alone with my tears. I let them free for a few seconds, finally deciding it's time to make the right decision.
I don't even dry the tears, or reapply my make, before I get out of the bathroom. Kevin is finishing his glass of wine when his eyes lay on the state of my face.
"Oh my, did something happened in the bathroom? Are you alright?"
I shake my head, taking my seat in front of him.
I'm engaged, I tell myself, but I just don't want to be.
"Please, tell me what's going on, you're scaring me"
I stay in silent, but my eyes fall to my hands. I play one last time with my ring, taking it off to place it in front of him. Kevin's eyes dance from my face to the ring, and a nervous laugh escapes his lips.
"What are you doing?"
"I can't do it" I whisper, "I'm so sorry, Kevin, I can't"
I stand from my seat, leaving a quick kiss on his forehead before walking outside the restaurant. I'm shaking, my whole body is trembling and I just want to run away from there. I catch the cab I get a glimpse of, almost shouting the address to the driver.
I read Jared's message another time, thinking of a way to answer it, but there are no words for this. So I just wait.
The driver announces that we have reached destination a few minutes after my almost breakdown. I thank him, giving him a generous tip for having to deal with me in this situation. I stand in front of the door, thinking of ways to explain what I'm doing there when I was supposed to be having dinner with my fiancé. Well, ex fiancé.
I decide that if I don't right that doorbell right this second, I may end up taking another cab home. I can hear the footsteps on the other side of the door, and Jared's image appears in front me. He's shirtless, only wearing pajama pants, and I can feel my soul falling to the ground.
"Hey" I mumble, folding my arms over my belly.
"You came for your glasses?" He asks, and I can see the glimpse of a smile.
"Maybe" I answer.
Jared moves from the door to let me in. When the door shuts behind me, it's just a matter of seconds before my back is leaning against it. Jared's body is pressed against mine, his nose caressing my temples.
"Your hand is lacking something" He mutters, and automatically, both of my hands reach for his neck, "I like it"
I use both of my hands to make his lips crash with my own. The kiss is desperate, his thigh getting position between my legs. I can't even control my body, letting it do whatever it wants, following his movements.
"So…" He whispers out of breath, breaking our kiss to grab my hips, making me fold my legs on his hips, "Loverboy didn't have champagne?"
"No, he didn't" I laugh, reaching for his lips again.
"Then, I'm allowed to take you away from him?" He asks, cupping my face with one hand.
"I think you did that a long time ago" I mutter, before receiving another one of his deep kisses.
The kiss rapidly transforms into something else, and right there on the door, his pajama pants falls to the floor, and my dress and panties follow them. We can't stop kissing, we have a magnet on our mouths that makes them play with each other, even when it gets harder. A moan makes me part from him when he starts filling me. I can feel the growing sensation of completeness in my chest, his body feeling as the missing piece of the puzzle that is my life.
My hands take hold of his arms, finding a way to make me follow his rhythm. His eyes hold my gaze, biting my lips, his hands clenching on my hips. This is everything I wanted, everything I needed, and he knows it.
I can hear myself screaming his name, but at the same time thinking that this is nothing but a dream. But this is real. I know it. I can feel his orgasm and mine crushing in one single moment.
From the moment our lips touched I knew I had make the right decision. But now, looking at his eyes shine, his lips forming a smile just for me, I am completely sure I made the right decision for my heart.
This gives me life

Earlier I wrote a blog post SQL SERVER – How to Access the Previous Row and Next Row value in SELECT statement?. Right after the blog post was published I received an email from SQL Server users who have no access to CTE and wanted me to help him out with the solution as well. Absolutely, Here is the solution for the anyone who is using SQL Server 2005 and does not use CTE.
I strongly suggest you read my earlier blog post before continuing this blog post as they are related to each other. The question was that, how to get access to Previous Row and Next Row in the SELECT statement.
Let us assume that we have following SQL Query.
USE AdventureWorks2012
SELECT p.FirstName
FROM Person.Person p
ORDER BY p.BusinessEntityID
What we want is that in the same SELECT statement the previous row and next row should be listed. Additionally the solution should support SQL Server 2005 and later versions. Here is the solution for the same.
CREATE TABLE #TempTable (rownum INT, FirstName VARCHAR(256));
INSERT INTO #TempTable (rownum, FirstName)
rownum = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY p.BusinessEntityID),
FROM Person.Person p;
prev.FirstName PreviousValue,
nex.FirstName NextValue
FROM #TempTable TT
LEFT JOIN #TempTable prev ON prev.rownum = TT.rownum - 1
LEFT JOIN #TempTable nex ON nex.rownum = TT.rownum + 1;
In the above example we have used Temp Table and with the help of Temp Table we have built our solution, which returns following result.
UPDATE: I had a few inaccuracies in the blog post, which is corrected based on the feedback of users. Thanks!

Your query will not work with SQL Server 2000. ROW_NUMBER was introduced into Version 2005.
I think you are right – my bad – I missed it.
Row-number is 2005 syntax
I think you are right – my bad – I missed it.
As other people have already pointed out, this definitely doesn't work on SQL Server 2000. SQL server 2000 users have no access to CTEs and ROW_NUMBER, since both were introduced in SQL Server 2005.
You are right – I missed it.
