We know how beneficial business blogging can be. Our clients know how beneficial it can be. But do you know how beneficial it can be? Check out our free trial to see.
A recent piece on econsultancy explained that in 2012, whilst 98% of the UK's Top 50 tech companies use LinkedIn to some extent, only 82% use Twitter and 68% Facebook.
Even more surprisingly, only 28% of them maintained a regular blog.
Whilst there's no doubt these figures are alarming – if anything, you'd expect tech companies to be the ones leading the way with digital media resources – there are various theories why they are as they are.
At The Blogshop, however, we feel there's one real reason, which is because there's a belief the whole process is too time- and resource-consuming. With so many digital technologies and resources to consider, we believe it's felt blogging and social are two that just aren't worth the investment.
Although there's an entire other argument that blogging and social media should be an organisation's key focus when it comes to digital technologies, assuming this came to be understood, we strongly believe that business blogging alone could alleviate any time or resource concerns that an organisation is having which are preventing them from taking advantage of the resources.
The reason behind this is if a business blogging strategy is developed and implemented in the right way, it could essentially act as the base for all social media activity, greatly reducing the amount of time required to maintain a presence on social media.
For example, with our business blogging services, we integrate a client's blog within their social media accounts, most notably Twitter and Facebook. This means that whenever a blog post is published to the blog, it is then automatically pushed to the social media accounts.
Whilst we're not saying this should replace all social media activity – as it's intended to simply supplement existing activity – it does provide a great base upon which further activity can be made. What's more, it also ensures that the social media accounts appear to be constantly active and maintained, which is where a lot of organisations fall down.
Business blogging really is one of the most versatile resources you can utilise as an organisation and the right investment can prove to impact positively on – and help out with – a vast array of different business aspects.
Increasing both efficiency and effectiveness in various ways considerably, business blogging shouldn't be seen as a replacement for separate social media activity, but there really isn't any need for an organisation to have no social media presence if they're maintaining a regular business blog.

What is Medigap insurance, and who needs it?
- Medigap supplemental insurance policies are sold by private insurance companies to fill some of the gaps in medical expenses that Medicare Part A and Medicare Part B don't pay. You might be thinking about getting one of these medigap policies for the first time, either at age 65 or later. Or you might already have a policy but you're thinking of changing to a different one that she's eligible for. In either case, you should know about some important differences among policies in order to make a good choice.
- Medicare Part A and Part B together pay only about half of all medical expenses for seniors. Medigap insurance policies fill some of these gaps by covering some costs and services that Medicare doesn't.
- A Medicare Part C managed care plan , also called Medicare Advantage, is another way to fill gaps in Medicare payments. If you're enrolled in a Medicare Advantage managed care plan, you do not also need a medigap insurance policy.
Does the government regulate what medigap insurance policies cover? The federal government regulates what medigap insurance policies cover. As of June 1, 2010, only 10 types of policies -- in what are known as Plans A through D, Plans F through G, and Plans K through N -- are offered. (Policies in Plans E, H, I, and J were sold before June 1, 2010, and may be kept by those who already have them.) Every policy issued within any one of these 12 plans provides the same coverage as every other policy within that plan, no matter which insurance company issues it. Other terms besides coverage -- such as premiums, when the policy will begin paying benefits, and how the insurance company goes about raising premiums over the years -- differ from policy to policy.
It's worth spending the time to compare the plans. And once you understand which plan might be best for you, decisions about those other terms require careful attention to the policy's fine print.
What are the standard medigap insurance policy plans?
As of June 1, 2010, you can buy a new medigap policy from one of 10 standard medigap insurance policy types, called Plan A through D, F, G, and K through N. Any new medigap policy offered by any insurance company must fall into one of these 10 plans, c overing the same medical services as all other policies in the same plan. Before June 2010, policies were also sold under Plans E, H, I, and J. People who already had policies under these plans can keep them, but they're no longer available to new buyers.
Also, in Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, medigap policies come in different plan categories, and some have a few extra options. If you live in one of these states, the state's department of insurance and the insurance company offering the policy can explain that state's plan differences.
All medigap policies, in every plan type, include three basic coverage elements: Every policy pays the Medicare Part A hospital coinsurance amounts, plus the full cost up to 365 additional hospital days after Medicare coverage runs out. Every policy pays all or some of the Medicare Part B 20 percent coinsurance amount for doctor bills and other outpatient medical care (the amount varying from plan to plan). And every policy pays some or all of the cost of the first three pints of transfused blood, which Medicare doesn't pay.
This downloadable PDF chart shows the other Medicare gaps in payment covered by policies under the various medigap plans sold on or after June 1, 2010. "Yes" indicates coverage of the gap and "No" indicates that coverage is not provided by that medigap plan. (Remember, Plans E, H, I, and J are no longer sold to new buyers but can continue in force for those who already have them.)
What medigap insurance coverage makes the most sense?
Choosing the best medigap insurance policy for you depends on a number of factors. You can help weigh them by making a list of available policies and comparing them side by side, including their initial costs, their coverage, how soon after purchase coverage begins, and the terms under which premiums can be raised. Here are some important things to consider:
- Long-term budget. Policies from plans with more coverage cost more. But even virtually identical policies from different companies can have very different premiums, so it's important to shop around. Remember, you may have this policy for many years, so what you can afford depends not just on your current finances but also on your likely income and assets down the road. That means you'll need to consider hikes in premiums over the years, not just the initial premium.
- Doctor charges. A big cost not covered by Medicare is the 15 percent a doctor can charge above the amount Medicare approves for a particular visit or service. Many doctors accept "assignment" of the Medicare-approved amount as the full amount they charge. But if you regularly see one or more doctors who don't accept this assigned amount, then a policy from Plan F or G -- which covers a doctor's excess charges -- may make good sense, even though the premiums are higher.
- Foreign travel. Medicare pays nothing for medical expenses outside the United States . If you regularly spend time abroad, a policy with coverage for emergency medical expenses outside the country -- Plans C, D, F, G, M or N -- can be a big plus.
- Hig h total expenses. If you have a chronic or serious condition that entails high medical bills, a policy from Plan K or L may make good sense. These policies pay only 50 (Plan K) or 75 (Plan L) percent of covered expenses -- but there's a yearly cap on out-of-pocket medical expenses (for Plan K, it's $4,620 in 2010; for Plan L, $2,310 in 2010). Once your expenses reach that cap, the policy pays 100 percent for all further covered medical services. The security of this set figure can be a real comfort when care and costs begin to mount.
What about medigap payments and premiums?
Do any medigap insurance policies pay differently for different providers?
A few medigap policies, called "Medicare Select," offer a two-tier payment system, something like a managed care plan. These policies maintain a network of participating hospitals, doctors, and other medical providers. If you receive care from one of the network providers, the policy pays full benefits. If you get care from a provider outside the network, the policy pays a reduced amount.
Because of these limitations, Medicare Select policies are often a bit less expensive than comparable policies without the two-tier payment system. If your regular doctors and other providers, including the hospital you would normally use, are within a Select policy's network, and the network has a substantial list of other nearby providers, then a Select policy may be a good bargain.
What should I know about medigap insurance policy premiums?
The amount an insurance company charges for a particular policy when a person first buys it isn't the only thing to know about that policy's premiums. The other is the terms under which the company may later raise those premiums -- which you can be sure they'll do. Policy provisions regarding premium raises come in three basic varieties:
- Level premiums. This is the best type of policy term concerning premium hikes. These premiums go up only when the insurance company raises premiums on all policies of the same type, and only as much as the state insurance department or commission allows. This means that market forces plus state regulation will keep premiums somewhat in check.
- Attained age. These policies base premiums entirely on a person's age. The company charges the same amount to everyone of the same age with the same policy, regardless of when they buy the policy. As a person ages, the premium goes up by a set amount -- yearly for some policies, in five-year increments for others (when the person reaches 70, 75, 80, and so on). These policies tend to have lower premiums than comparable policies for people at age 65 but higher premiums as policyholders get older. If you're considering a policy with an attained age term, ask an insurance company representative to show you the premium costs for current policyholders at the next two age increments above your age. The percentage raise in these premiums above what you would be paying now will tell you what you can expect when you reach these ages.
- Issue age. The initial premium for one of these policies would be determined by your age when you first buy it. From then on, your premium would be the same as for anyone else who first buys the premium at the same age. That means the premium won't automatically rise when you reach age plateaus (such as age 65, 70, or 75), as it would in "attained age" policies. The premium will steadily rise but may be held in check somewhat because the insurance company might keep the price competitive in order to attract new buyers.
Does a person's medical condition affect medigap coverage?
Almost all policies have a "preexisting illness exclusion." This sets a time following the policy purchase during which there's no coverage at all for any medical condition a person was treated for within some period just before buying the policy. Six months before and after buying the policy is the standard exclusion period. A shorter exclusion period usually means a higher premium.
Regardless of your medical history or current medical condition, if you have "guaranteed enrollment" in medigap, you can buy any policy sold in your state. Or you may have limited guaranteed enrollment in certain but not all policies, if you lost your existing coverage with a Medicare Part C Medicare Advantage managed care plan .
If you don't have any guaranteed enrollment, either because you waited too long to buy your first medigap policy or because you're now switching policies, an insurance company may refuse to sell you a policy or may charge you higher premiums because of your medical history. The company could ask to examine your medical records and even have you undergo a physical exam by an insurance company doctor.
How can I get help in looking for a medigap insurance policy?
- One place to begin looking is the Medicare website , which offers a link called "Medicare Personal Plan Finder." By entering your state and zip code, you'll get information about locally available medigap policies. This is just a starting point, however. You always need to get detailed information about a policy directly from the company that issues it.
- Some insurance agents sell medigap policies. But agents aren't always knowledgeable about policy details and usually know about only a few policies from one or two insurance companies. So, while an agent might alert you to a good policy, don't restrict your shopping just to the agent's list. And never rely on what an agent says about a policy's terms. Always get a copy from the insurance company itself and read it carefully.
- Organizations that cater to seniors sometimes advertise or "sponsor" medigap policies. These offers sometimes come with frills, such as an organization ne wsletter. However, the organizations aren't truly sponsoring the policies -- nor do they guarantee the policy's quality, add anything to its terms, or take responsibility to pay claims. It's the insurance company, not the organization, that issues the policy, sets the terms, and pays -- or doesn't pay -- the claims.
- If you have difficulty comparing one policy with another or have questions about a specific policy, you can get free expert help from your local nonprofit State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) or Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy Program (HICAP) .

Considering video sponsorship?
Are there events or other media-worthy subjects associated with your business that could be captured on video which your customers would be hungry to see? If there are, then video sponsorship might just be the perfect opportunity for you to get your brand in front of exactly the right audience.
The opportunities for video sponsorship are manifold – and the general public's appetite for more and more online video content is ever increasing. Regardless of their interests (be that in a sport, activity, location, profession, art or craft or a regular calendar event), the chances are there will be a video on YouTube about it. However, very few of these videos are professionally produced and sponsored or commissioned by a business.
The benefits of video sponsorship
Producing the right kind of content will attract the right kind of audience, and through proper indexing, tagging and social media syndication these audiences can often be extremely large. Searching YouTube under any given subject (and listing the results by 'most viewed') will show you that even the most obscure of subjects can attract many tens of thousands of views. Now imagine that each of those viewers had been exposed to your brand.
Always hungry for video content, viewers will develop a stronger affinity to your brand and a greater understanding of what your business can offer them. In addition, sharing your sponsored video with your existing client base will help nurture customer loyalty and, at the same time, give you additional video content on your website to augment your video SEO activities and raise your search engine profile.
Ideas for video sponsorship
You've probably got a good idea what type of content would be good to hang your brand on, but here are some specific areas of video sponsorship which might be right for you…
Sharing Information and Specialist Knowledge
Films or documentaries which impart specialist or valuable knowledge present a great opportunity for video sponsorship and will help you present your brand in a positive way. Teaching the viewer how to do something better, more economically, more safely or by alternative means will naturally achieve traction if shared and syndicated through the right channels.
Video sponsorship for local business
If your business is location-based, and you are trying to build a greater awareness amongst customers within that area, then the opportunities are probably endless… Documentaries about local festivals, tourist attractions, amenities, history… in fact any subject matter which is going to be of interest to the local community. Video sponsorship of this kind of content will certainly help put you on the map and demonstrate a commitment to serving the local population.
Sports and Competitive event video sponsorship
If you produce products or services that have a connection to competitive events then video sponsorship is a great way to raise your profile. This could be a sports event, an art or craft awards scheme – or any other event which had a competitive element. With competitive events you have the added bonus that your brand will be associated with success, especially if there's an opportunity to include participant endorsements.
The cost of video sponsorship
Whilst video is seen as an expensive medium the costs are quite comparative to other mainstream media platforms. The secret is to keep production costs in-line with the potential returns you'll gain from greater brand awareness. The simplest ideas are usually the best and, thankfully, often the cheapest. Whilst each commission will need to be assessed and priced independently, Video Artisan has produced sponsored event documentaries from as little as £1,500 – but we could equally envisage working on projects with a much lower video production budget.
If you have a video sponsorship idea that you'd like to develop, please give us a call to explore how we could help make it a reality – 020 3602 3356.

About Me!
Things that you may or may not want to know about me:
I adore ninjas. I wish I could be one. I also wish I could have a dragon and be named Daenerys Targaryan. They are legit desires. But I also understand slightly unrealistic. It's ok.
My husband is the most amazing man in the world. He treats me like a queen every.single.day, is my biggest supporter, and I have no idea in the slightest what I would do without him. Plus, he's amazingly good looking and can snatch 245 pounds... I mean really... what more could I ask for?!
We have 2 cute pups named Leonidas and Maia. They are our little fur kids and we love them to death!
I used to be a middle school teacher for 4 years. I LOVED teaching and poured everything I had into helping my students be successful and get excited about learning, but felt that I needed to make a change in my life when my husband said that I was a zombie at the end of the day when I came home because I was so exhausted. My husband also works for CrossFit HQ and travels almost every weekend, so we never got to each other. That was when I decided to transition into coaching CrossFit and starting this blog!
I am forever thankful to God for how much has blessed me with in life. His unconditional love and grace astounds me. Every day.
Before meeting my husband, I made the most delicious italian sausage lasagne, fluffy chocolate chip cookies, and homemade cherry pies. Then I met him, fell madly in love , and learned he is gluten intolerant and any gluten would have him throwing up his life in a toilet for 48 hours. So the long process began of tearfully saying goodbye to my gluten filled, delicious (although now I realize severely unhealthy) recipes. I have learned so much from him in terms of what carbs, protein, and fats REALLY ARE. I started not just to make the foods that we eat "gluten free" (because making something gluten free DOES NOT make it magically healthy), but trying to make HEALTHY gluten free meals. Of course, I did need to some gluten free cheat night recipes, so don't worry, there's a little bit of "goodness that melts in your mouth" that I'll post too.
I feel it's very important to not only be aware of what we are putting on IN bodies, but also ON our bodies (your skin is the largest organ in your body and absorbs a large part of what is put on it into the blood stream). I recently became a consultant for Beautycounter, a company that is revolutionizing the skincare industry with safer, but still high performing products! Check out my post on why I chose Beautycounter and the research behind it!
I LOVE being active! My husband and I CrossFit and it has truly changed my life in seeing fitness in a new way: actually enjoyable and fun! I used to run on treadmills and do ab twists with a medicine ball, but ditched that as soon as I found that you can do a 20 minute CrossFit workout and be in the best shape of your life! Ask my husband - I thrive on living efficiently... so this was a big deal. Plus, there is something completely invigorating and empowering about lifting weights, gaining confidence in movements (and life), and improving my fitness!
I LOVE my job as a travel coordinator for CrossFit HQ. It is amazing and such an honor to be a part of a company that is bringing such radical change to the world in health and fitness.
Well, that's probably 20x more information than you wanted to know about me. You're MORE than welcome.
The goal of this blog is to bring other people along in this amazing journey of life that we have, inspiring and providing you with the tools to live healthier and happier! I hope that you will find lot of laughter, healthy food recipes and tips on how to lead a healthier and more simple life, and inspiration to live each day to the fullest!
I would love to hear YOUR story and know how I can help you specifically. Visit my contact page!
Check me out on Facebook - I post a ton of great articles and information there!
Follow me on Pinterest for food (obviously) and you will also get some insight into my type A personality by looking at my boards ha!
See my day to day life (fitness, food, inspirational quotes, and of course lots of laughter) on Instagram along with any new recipe development!

Body paint
Lisa (Ms Anderson) is one of a half-dozen restaurant waitresses who are shown serving customers wearing body paint tuxedos. Hers gets splashed with alcohol and the paint runs to expose cleavage, but it's pretty clear there's some kind of nipple coverage in operation here. Nice swaying as the girls move around, however.
The scene occurs towards the end of episode 2.14, but there's a moment about five minutes earlier when one of the other waitresses (sorry, didn't catch her name) models the 'outfit' and the camera zooms in on her breasts.

Open Your Eyes
United States | 2008
All information | Synopsis | Credits | Screenings | Awards | Reviews | Details
Life threw Julia a curve ball she never expected. Julia struggles to come to terms with her life and marriage after being diagnosed with breast cancer. It all comes to a head when she attends a friend's bridal shower – wanting desperately to escape from the clamor of the other women, Julia hides out in the bathroom – only to be intruded upon by a stranger. The stranger turns out to be Kat, the frank-talking, pot-smoking sister of the bride-to-be, who, like Julia, would rather be in the bathroom than out with the other women. Julia is taken by surprise when Kat locks the door and lights up. In this unlikely hiding place, Julia finds herself in a very frank and funny conversation. As she opens up to Kat, Julia realizes that she can't hide forever.

You may have noticed the AXA PPP healthcare logo on our website and wondered who we are.Health-on-Line, based in Bournemouth, has been around since 2000. AXA PPP healthcare has been underwriting our policies since 2005, so it was a natural progression that in 2012 we became part of the AXA Group. This provides our customers with the extra reassurance of being part of an organisation with 75 years' experience in healthcare.This means that the Health For You, and Business Priority Health policies are run by Health-on-Line, but the Personal Health, and Business Health Select policies are run by AXA PPP healthcare – which is why those products are quoted online via the AXA PPP website. Of course, our Personal Account Managers can still offer you both types of policy over the phone.

Heart Breakfast with JK & Lucy 6am - 9am
Make sure you're wearing your best leotard, sweatbands and trainers because this list is going to have you dancing on the ceiling.
Here's a roundup of some of the best dance scenes in film throughout time!
Every dance scene in this film a-okay with us.
Read more: Channing Tatum Dances 'Magic Mike' Routine Dressed A Pensioner!
Don't forget Tom Cruise's pants dance! To be honest though, who hasn't done this when their parents leave them the house whilst they're on holiday? And if you haven't, your kids are doing it when you're away.
Read more: Watch: Tom Cruise Cleans Up In An Intense Lip Sync Battle
*Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, cicero, lipschitz* The Cell-Block Tango was sexy, dangerous and full of attitude.
This kid had talent. The scene where Billy - played by Jamie Bell - takes out his frustration by tap-dancing on the roofs and backyards of the neighbours still gives us goosebumps.
Because who doesn't dance like Prime Minister Hugh Grant?
When Jamal (Dev Patel) and Latika (Freido Pinto) brought Bollywood to the train station at the end of a heart-wrenching, on-the-edge-of-your-set rollercoaster of a film based on a true story.
Yes, Channing Tatum makes the list again. Any complaints? Anyone? No? Good.
It might not be the best dance routine ever, but it's certainly one of the most iconic. We all outwardly judged Gretchen, Regina, Cady and Karen whilst we secretly learnt the moves in the safety of our living rooms...
What a classic. And when the weather is grey and miserable, who doesn't break into this song and dance routine?
*Twist, twist, twist, twist, mashed potato, mumbo* Not only did this film make us want to bring back all those 60s moves, we got to see John Travolta at his finest - as Edna Turnblad!
Normally we'd say that the best and sexiest dance routine in Grease would be either Greased Lightning or You're The One That I Want, but we found Danny Zuko doing the same moves as Edna Turnblad and it's made our day!
Read more: QUIZ: Who Would Be YOUR 'Grease' Date To The Rydell High School Dance?
There are a lot sexier dancing scenes between Baby (Jennifer Grey) and Johnny (Patrick Swayze) but this is is easily the most famous move from the film. C'mon, who's made their sibling practice this move with you in the swimming pool?
Natalie Portman's dancing skills in this film were en pointe. Get it? Seriously though, who knew she could dance so well? Ms. Portman, who played Nina, trained for eight hours a day, six days a week to achieve that ballet body. Her dedication to the job is admirable.
What a phenomenon this TV only film turned out to be for Disney. Over here at Heart we're still *Soaring. Flying. There's not a star in heaven that we can't reach!*
You thought it was cute when Ren (Kevin Bacon) got his dance shoes on and then you saw Ren teaching Willard (Chris Penn) how to dance. Now that was cute!
When life gets you down, you dance it out right? With the Breakfast Club.
Read more: 'The Breakfast Club': Where Are They Now
This is the reason that it takes you and your family so long to leave someone's house. Since the kids bothered to learn the dance moves, you regret making them watch this on a Sunday night...
When you've got something to celebrate (like finally hooking up with the perfect girl), you simply MUST dance! isn't that right Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt)?

Glen Mills >> Eagles safety Rodney McLeod will be at the Smoothie King in Glen Mills Friday and will sign autographs.
"He's a super down-to-earth guy and if kids are there with Eagles hats or Eagles jerseys, he will sign for them all day," said Dave Rivell, owner of the Smoothie King, located off Route 1 behind Malvern Federal Savings and adjacent from Buffalo Wild Wings."He loves kids, but he's leery of adults trying to get autographs and selling them on eBay."
Rivell said McLeod will be there from 5-6 p.m. Friday. Rivell said he will have a DJ spinning tunes, and the atmosphere will be festive.
Rivell said McLeod comes to Smoothie King because he loves the Strawberry Peanut Butter Plus smoothie. He said McLeod does a lot of charity work.
Two years ago, McLeod signed a five-year, $37 million contract with the Eagles.

Family Guy: Back To The Multiverse Coming To Consoles This Fall
After rumors broke last week about the game's existence, Activision has now confirmed that a Family Guy video game is in development and will be released this fall. As rumored, the game will be titled Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse, the title will offer gamers an interactive Family Guy experience inspired by one of the most popular and notable episodes in the series' history. The new console game from Fox and Activision intends to tap into the core components of the Family Guy spirit.
Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse will utilize the source material, including the talented voice cast and writers, authentic humor and subversive spirit of the series. They didn't give us much more than that, pretty much only confirming what we already knew. I'm sure we will get more info in the weeks ahead but I am sure Stewie will get into all kinds of mischief.

Actor Topher Grace got to live with his parents while he was making new all-star comedy The Big Wedding, because shooting took place in his home town.
The former That 70's Show star woke up in the bunk bed he slept in when he was a child growing up in Connecticut.
He says, "I went away to boarding school when I was 12 but I came home every summer, and then when I was in college I came home during the summer and then even during That 70's Show there were summer breaks, so I would go home, so my room hasn't changed since I was 12.
"I have that sports poster... and a bunch of Jurassic Park posters and glow-in-the-dark stars.
"My mom would wake me up and she'd cut peaches into my cereal and then I'd go and do a scene with (movie mom) Diane Keaton."

When packing suitcases for a trip, your checklist should include clothing, toiletries and documents. Additionally, electronics are the extra items that have become common on most travelling checklists as of 2015.Continue Reading
The number of clothing items depends on the length of the trip. For a trip from four days to a week, pack up to five short-sleeved and long-sleeved tops made of materials that show a minimum of wrinkles. Quick-dry materials, such as synthetic-blend fabrics, are useful. Pack two pairs of pants or shorts depending on the weather. Shorts that can double as a swimsuit are useful for men.
Bring five pairs each of comfortable and light underwear and socks and at least one pair of comfortable walking shoes. Take an extra pair of walking boots if your trip involves trekking. If you have room, flip-flops are quick to put on and useful to use in bathrooms. Depending on the weather, bring an evening jacket, a sweater or a big overcoat. If you travel to rainy places, such as Great Britain, bring a waterproof coat.
Documents include passports, visas if needed, traveler checks if you use them, guidebooks and maps if you don't have data, and a small notepad and pen. Besides the basic toiletries kit, pack medicine, first-aid kit and sunglasses.
Electronics for communication are smartphones and laptops. Electronics for entertainment include a digital camera, an iPad or a Kindle. Also bring chargers, adapters and batteries to keep the electronics working throughout the trip.Learn more about Geography

1. The Audit Commission is pleased to provide
written evidence as part of the inquiry by the Environment, Transport
and Regional Affairs Select Committee into cemeteries.
2. The Commission has not published any
work focusing solely on the cemeteries. However, through the course
of their work the Commission's inspectors and the auditors appointed
by the Commission, will look at the local provision of cemeteries
as part of the best value performance framework. The Commission
has also looked at provision in this area as part of its role
in specifying and verifying performance information.
3. Following the introduction of the best
value performance framework the system of local authority performance
indicators has changed. The Government took on the major role
of specifying service-based indicators for local authoritiesthe
best value performance indicators (BVPIs)some of which
were taken directly from the old Audit Commission peformance indicators
(ACPIs). Although the best value legislation did not remove the
Commission's statutory responsibility for setting indicators,
following consultation with stakeholders the Commission opted
not to set PIs for the current year (2001-02). Neither the BVPIs
nor the old ACPIs contained indicators that look at the local
provision of cemetery services.
4. In additon to the statutory obligation
to measure BVPIs, authorities are encouraged to set local PIs
that reflect their communities' priorities. To assist authorities
in developing their own performance measures, the Commission has,
in conjunction with the Improvement and Development Agency (IDeA),
set up a library of local PIs. This is an entirely voluntary service,
providing definitions for local PIs in different service areas
to avoid duplication of effort in developing PIs, but more importantly
to provide standard definitions that enable meaningful comparison.
5. Although no local PIs for cemeteries
have yet been included in the library, from the initial research
for the library it was found that a number of authorities have
developed and are using their own local indicators for cemeteries.
A website for the library of local PIs lists the examples of those
local PIs in use and references those authorities that are using
them in order to facilitate networking with other authorities
wanting to compare their peformance in this area. A number of
authorities have elected to use cemeteries and crematoria performance
indicators, under the broader heading of environmental services
as part of the best value framework. These cover issues such as:
A full list of these indicators and the authorities
using them are attached as an appendix.
6. The Committee may also be interested
to note that the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy
(CIPFA) publish information from authorities on authorities' actual
expenditure on cemeteries. The last publication Cemeteries
1998-99 Actuals can be obtained direct from the CIPFA Statistical
Information Service.
7. Some local authorities have worked together
to form benchmarking groups around this service area. One such
group has been formed covering much of Wales and a number of authorities
in the South West of England.
8. Under the best value performance framework
every authority has to produce a best value performance plan (BVPP).
It sets out the authority's key aims and objectives and gives
details of its past, present and future performance against targets.
This plan should bring together all the areas that the authority
is responsible for and should provide the public with commitments
to which they can hold an authority to account. Each authority
has to agree a programme of best value reviews of services, which
will be summarised in the BVPP. Each year, the contents of the
plan will be audited by the Commission's auditors to provide assurance
that it was prepared and published in accordance with the legislation
and guidance.
9. Under best value all services have to
be reviewed by an authority during the five-year cycle. Authorities
are encouraged to critically assess their services and prioritise
their review programme over the five-year cycle. The first best
value cycle began on 1 April 2000 and as such many authorities
have not yet outlined when and how they are going to cover cemeteries.
However the legislation requires that all services are reviewed
by April 2005.
10. If an authority has not planned by the
end of the five-year best value cycle to cover all of its service
areaseither discretely or as part of a wider reviewit
would have failed to meet its statutory obligations. So by the
end of the first best value cycle an authority should have made
provision to review their cemetery provision. Where this is not
the case, the auditor would refer to the fact in his/her statutory
report on the BVPP, and he/she could, where appropriate, recommend
that the Commission should carry out an inspection or that the
Secretary of State/National Assembly for Wales should issue a
11. Following an authority's service review
the Commission's inspectors test how good the service is, and
how likely it is to improve. The intensity of inspections will
vary depending on the priorities of the local authority, which
services are being reviewed and the quality of the authority's
own best value review. In general, inspections will be more extensive
in assessing major service areas, or where an authority's own
review is not deemed sufficiently rigorous. The first few years
of inspection will provide data on baseline performance on which
an authority's level of risk can be decided.
12. Each year inspectors discuss with authorities,
which of the reviews that they have undertaken are a priority
for inspection. Many of the year-one reviews which have included
cemeteries have not been identified as a priority for inspection,
and of those reviews that are going to be covered in an inspection
most will be done in a light-touch way, with the focus on the
quality of service experienced by users.
13. Following the request for information
from the Committee, the Commission has carried out a short survey
of lead inspectors in authorities where cemeteries have been identified
as a focus for review in the first year of the best value regime.
Of these authorities most have included their cemetery services
as part of a broad review of a group of services, rather than
as a discrete focus.
14. A few year-one reviews of cemetery services
have been identified as priority areas for inspection. These inspections
are still in progress and so the findings have not been made public.
Some of the issues that have been identified through the inspection
process are:
15. Of the authorities that have been inspected,
at least two ran the review process alongside their application
for the Institute of Burials and Crematoriums (IBCA) charter,
and this was considered helpful.
16. As best value inspection progresses,
it is clear that the Commission will be in possession of a great
deal of unique information about public services. We will be publishing
a series of service specific publications on the theme of "Lessons
from Inspection". These publications will further improve
our evidence base as to the critical success factors involved
in delivering high quality public services.
17. Although this service constitutes a
minor area of local authority expenditure, it is one that impacts
on people in a personal way at a highly sensitive time in their
lives. The Commission's early work in this area suggests that
good practice identified in partnership with the relevant professional
bodies should be used to inform any minimum standards. Local PIs
could be an effective monitoring mechanism in this area since
they allow service delivery to be tailored to local priorities.

The ferment of greatness, once in a hundred years, produces an idea, a song that wafts over spans of soil and sea and stirs the souls of swarming multitudes. A sweep that awakens sagging, shrivelled spirits and brings joy amidst the dreary desert of dead habit.

Like the scent of musk that cannot be secreted, the voice of truth is a rapture that finds resonance in the innermost recesses of every being. Rabindranath Tagore was such an intellect whose words captivated our imagination and whose utterances and hymns continue to flourish and conquer hearts.

Just as he found trees to be the attempts of earth to reach out to the skies, his poetry, music and philosophy sought out people of all races and creed.

This is a story of a young Hungarian girl, who in a dream saw a white-robed seer passing on the numinous light of learning to her. Incredibly, her artist mother soon after received a letter from the shores of faraway Bengal in the mystic land of India written by Tagore inviting them to visit Shantiniketan.

Tagore by Elizabeth Brunner

From the moment they set their foot on the Promised Land, the young Elizabeth Brunner found her Gurudev. Nurtured under his benevolent gaze, she blossomed into an internationally well known artist who lived long enough to tell her tale to all of us who had the good fortune of being considered her family.

Elizabeth spent her formative years of girlhood in the small university town set up by the Nobel Laureate. While her mother often meditated, Elizabeth entranced by the sights and scenes of the strange country captured them on the canvas. She also sketched students and Tagore interacting with them. While mostly she painted him when in the company of others, she was occasionally allowed to visit him at home.

One fine afternoon, she went up the stairs of Gurudev's house called Uttarayan and found him engrossed in penning a composition. He was sitting in his study room all by himself. Sensing a chance, Elizabeth tip-toed to an open window with her painting paraphernalia and settled on its wide sill, where she got a rare direct view of Tagore immersed in his work.

She narrated, "Gurudev loved working in quietude, particularly when he wanted to pen something special. That day, he was sitting at his table working on a composition. Sometimes he would put down his pen, lean back on his chair and listen to the music scrawling up from his grand-daughter's piano downstairs. Then he would pick up his pen again and start writing."

Sitting cross legged, Elizabeth painted his portrait almost breathlessly, lest he was disturbed. Tagore noticed the young Brunner only after the painting was already complete.

"He was shocked that someone else had been in the room. He got up from his chair and walked towards me. He seemed tall like a mountain to me who was squatting on the floor. He came over, saw my painting, observed it silently for a few minutes, smiled and walked away," she recounted.

Soon after, Tagore went to drink tea while Elizabeth followed him downstairs. Turning to his daughter-in-law he said, "I have been painted all over the world by famous artists, but this chit of a girl caught me!" (This particular painting is displayed at the National Museum in Delhi.)

Tagore then called Elizabeth over and gave her permission to come over to his house and paint him whenever she liked. This blank chit afforded her several rare glimpses into his profound persona. Like him sitting on his verandah chair sometimes reading, sometimes snoozing. He would once in a while walk on the terrace, deep in the night watching the changing face of the moon as the cool breeze caressed his solitude.

When she moved and settled in Delhi, Pandit Nehru offered Elizabeth a residence in Rabindra Nagar, something she really cherished.

This narrative may be small account tucked away in a small nook of timeless memory, but in actuality it is much more. It removes the veil from a hidden gem of Tagore's already revered personality. That he was a multi-talented genius is already known; but his actions reveal his genteel presence, expose the sensitivity of sage and humility that only a spiritualist can possess.

In France, IRCT member centre Parcours d'Exil uses a vast range of methods to treat their clients. Among these approaches are art therapy, language classes and cultural events, which can help accelerate torture survivors' recovery. For one torture survivor art therapy proved the key to easing his fears and allowed him to deal with the horrific trauma of his past.
In August 2015, Parcours d'Exil was contacted by a volunteer of Iranian descent working for the Red Cross, who had benefitted from one of the centre's training programmes. She asked the centre to make an emergency appointment for an Iranian asylum seeker who had arrived in France two days before.
On the day of the consultation, asylum seeker N appeared to be in a state of fear, incapable of uttering a word, watchful of everything and everyone and crying all the time. He made it clear that he was afraid of the therapist and he showed signs of being afraid he was being watched and threatened.
As the consultations went on, N slowly started to communicate with the help of an Afghan translator, who the centre had chosen to avoid bringing back his memories of the Iranian "aggressor". He managed to tell the therapist about the traumatic events he had endured.
Parcours d'Exil quickly realised that verbal communication would be complicated, and could hinder therapeutic cooperation as they brought back N's impressions of the interrogation. Centre staff decided to introduce him to their art therapist. Art therapy, in this particular form, proved to be the real entry point, helping N to accept and engage in the broader therapeutic process at the centre.
In their first meeting, N and the art therapist found themselves sitting on rugs, drinking tea while listening to classical music.
It became clear that N patient presented a post-traumatic dissociative disorder. He complained of anxiety, insomnia and post-traumatic nightmares (in which he found himself, for instance, in a bunker without any light), memory disorders and an inability to focus, which forced him to write down everything. He could not take the bus or metro for fear of not being able to exit it. He also complained of being unusually irritable, always fearing that the person he was speaking to would try to take control of him.
Like many other patients, N did not want any medication, having been exposed to "harmful" treatments in the past. Furthermore, he had been hospitalised in a psychiatric ward after two suicide attempts before being incarcerated. External elements exacerbated his symptoms, particularly when he learned of his mother's hospitalisation back in Iran.
In order to familiarise him with Parcours d'Exil's Health Centre, he was invited to attend French courses and music workshops that the centre organises, while continuing the art therapy. It soon became clear that participating in these classes, within the reassuring frame of the centre, had become a "necessity" for him, and his social behaviour changed dramatically.
He never missed any of the cultural visits organised by the centre, and he was gradually able to socialise again and regain some confidence. He put himself forward to sing Persian songs during music classes, started to communicate in French during the French for Foreign Speakers sessions and decided to try to learn how to play the piano.
Like in many cases, one simple detail or situation can easily trigger bad memories. During a French language lesson, N was shown a picture of a bathtub. He immediately froze and was overcome with an immense sadness.
Although the nightmares were a constant reminder of his imprisonment and torture, the courses enabled him to recover the long-forgotten feeling that life could be seen through a positive lens. Along with psychotherapy, art therapy, music and French language lessons were key aspects of the positive outcome of his treatment, in terms of his quality of life and speed of recovery.
All the more so given the fact that his case was extremely complex, and such patients often take years to recover. On numerous occasions, N was able to talk about the improvements in his life, and how he behaved and felt about himself. It took less than six months for N to make this progress.
N's story confirms the idea that Parcours d'Exil promotes: That the inclusion of artistic and creative activities is a powerful catalyst to accelerate self-reconstruction.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Beat the eggs until well combined and light in color, about 5 minutes. Mix the sugar and flour together and gradually add to the eggs using low speed. Add the corn syrup, vanilla and salt and blend well, again using low speed. Fold the nuts in by hand and pour the mixture into the prepared pie crusts. Bake at 400 degrees F for 10 minutes and then reduce the heat to 350 degrees F. and bake for 1 hour longer. The pie will rise up and form cracks on the top, and the filling will be set when baking is complete. Remove pie and let it cool before cutting.
Combine the butter, shortening, 2 cups of the cake flour, and 1 cup of the all-purpose flour. Blend together. Stop mixer, scrape the sides and add remaining 2 cups of cake flour and remaining 1 cup of all-purpose flour. Blend to combine completely. Mix sugar and salt into 1/4 cup of the water and add it to the flour mixture. Blend briefly and add the remaining water if needed. The dough should not be overworked and should make a solid piece when held in your hand. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured smooth surface and knead it several times. Divide the dough into portions and flatten it. Wrap unused dough in plastic. Roll out the dough to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Re-roll any scraps for a second pie crust.
Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. Prick bottom and sides of pastry with fork. Bake 12 minutes or until light brown. Cool on wire rack.

We work to improve the quality of life for those affected by schizophrenia and psychosis through education, support programs, influencing public policy, and encouraging research.
Schizophrenia Society of Nova Scotia
Room B-23, Purdy Building
P.O. Box 1004
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia
In Nova Scotia, a wide variety of human, social and health related services are offered by local community groups, non-profit agencies and government departments. Finding the right service at the right time though, can be a real challenge.
Beginning next February, a "211" service will provide Nova Scotians with a free, confidential information and referral program for the thousands of these services provided across the province. It will be available throughout the province, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by simply dialling "2-1-1" to speak to a helpful staff member, or by searching our on line database, which will be up and running when 211 launches.
To help Nova Scotians in every community and make good use of your services and programs, we need complete and accurate information. We want to ensure all services provided by community groups have been included for each and every community in Nova Scotia. 211 Nova Scotia is inviting all non-profit providers of human, social and health related services in communities throughout the province to contact us to confirm that the 211 database has the right information about your service. We are a non-profit association – there is no cost to any organization to have information included in our database. You can reach our team members by calling 902-466-5721 or emailing email@example.com. We welcome inquiries from the general public as well. Information about 211 is available on our website at www.ns.211.ca. This service is supported by the Province of Nova Scotia and the United Way.
Around the same time, I was asked to speak to a journalism class taught by a friend of mine at the Dartmouth Nova Scotia Community College. I was asked to speak on the representation of mental illness in the media. For this talk, I have chosen to highlight your article, entitled "Mental health advocate calls for collaborative approach to wellness."
In this article by Keith Corcoran, the credibility of the speaker (myself) is challenged from the very top of the article by the rather sensationalist and jarring placement of the first line, which refers to my contemplation of suicide as a preteen. If such a detail needs to be mentioned (which, given the context of the talk I gave, it doesn't) it could be somehow contextualized, or even placed further down in the article. It also refers to my experience with schizophrenia in terms that are not the current way to define a person who has been given said diagnosis.
Mr. Corcoran decided to refer to me as a "schizophrenic with a history of anorexia, anxiety and depression." Unlike the other experiences, the schizophrenia piece of my life was not delegated to my history, but was instead how I was principally defined. I am an artist, a registered counsellor and psychotherapist intern, a public speaker and a person with a lived experience of schizophrenia — not a "schizophrenic."
Indeed, my mental illness was the gateway to my understanding the mental health system from the inside, and was the reason I decided to become a clinician myself, but it was not the point of my talk at the AGM that night. The point of my talk was to help clinicians to remember why they got into the helping profession in the first place, to give my humble perspective, and to think about some directions we might take to keep ourselves in touch with why we continue to choose to help others.
It was essentially about mindfulness for mental health professionals. And although I made a provocative joke in my speech hinging on a concept that was omitted from this article, I would be careful in the future about the paraphrasing of critical statements about persons' experiences with mental health care.
By missing the point of my talk, and by defining me as an illness first, person second, you have not only hurt me, but have hurt all of the other people who fight against the stigma of mental illness every day in your area. And for those who are already prejudiced about those who experience mental illness, well, you have given them one more juicy tidbit to gossip about.

American Horror Story: Freak Show Teaser: Here Comes the 3-Legged Lady
FX has released another blink-and-you'll-miss-it teaser for American Horror Story: Freak Show, this one featuring a three-legged woman spinning on a ring inside the big top. Presumably the deformed hand and split tongue from the previous teasers do not all belong to the same lady, although that would be impressive. Take a look:

Gov. Paul LePage's proposal to change the way General Assistance money is distributed in Maine would shift costs to property taxpayers and increase homelessness, say officials in Portland and other cities.
The governor's plan calls for the most far-reaching change to Maine's General Assistance funding in 20 years, said Portland Mayor Michael Brennan.
"It will increase local property taxes and make hundreds of people homeless in Portland," he said.
Portland is joining with nine other cities – Biddeford, Bangor, Lewiston, Auburn, Waterville, Augusta, Saco, Westbrook and South Portland – to pressure lawmakers to reject LePage's proposal.
City managers and mayors from five of the cities met in Augusta on Thursday to discuss the issue.
Also on Thursday, the Maine Municipal Association's policy committee voted to oppose the measure.
John Martins, spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services, said LePage's proposal is comprehensive and designed to limit the growth of the General Assistance program, which increased from $4.9 million in 2003 to $11.8 million in 2011.
He said the program, which is administered by cities and towns but funded mostly by the state, was intended to be the "last resort" for poor people in emergency situations.
He said 87 percent of the funding is now used to help people pay for housing, and that is not an appropriate use of the money.
"General Assistance is a program that needs returned to what it was intended to be for," he said.
Martins said the current system encourages cities and towns to expand their programs so they can qualify for more state money.
LePage's proposal would:
• Limit housing assistance to 90 days per calendar year, saving $3.3 million. That change would affect Portland, South Portland, Bangor, Lewiston and Waterville, according to the DHHS.
• Give all cities and towns a 50 percent reimbursement rate, saving $1.4 million. Bigger communities now can qualify for 90 percent reimbursement after they spend a set amount of money. The change would be expected to affect Portland, Bangor, Lewiston and Caribou.
• Eliminate General Assistance for anyone who receives federal Temporary Assistance to Needy Families funds, saving $978,666.
DHHS Commissioner Mary Mayhew told lawmakers Wednesday that her department is developing an alternative proposal.
Currently, cities and towns administer the program based on a standard formula of benefits and income criteria. Mayhew told lawmakers that the state could instead give communities fixed amounts of money, and the communities would have the flexibility to set their own criteria.
Lewiston City Manager Ed Barrett said he worries that some cities and towns could set criteria to limit the number of people who qualify, or limit their benefits. As a result, people would move to other communities, he said.
"Let's say Bangor decides to be stingy, and Portland decides to be generous – and we know that people in Portland are generous – a lot of clients in Bangor will say, "Hey, let's go to Portland.'"
Barrett said he's particularly worried about the proposal to limit housing vouchers to 90 days. He said a landlord would balk at the idea of renting to someone whose housing voucher ends in three months. He said landlords wouldn't want to risk ending up in a costly eviction proceeding.
As a result, there would be hundreds more homeless people in Lewiston, while the high vacancy rate in downtown apartments would get even higher, he said.
In Portland, the General Assistance budget for fiscal year 2012-13 is $7.9 million, of which city taxpayers pay about $1.8 million and the state pays about $6.2 million.
LePage's proposal would reduce the state's payments to $3.95 million. Portland officials would then have to decide whether to increase property taxes to make up the difference, said Doug Gardner, director of Portland's Health and Human Services Department.
"Everything being equal, this is a significant cost shift to the local property taxpayer in Portland and across the state."
Biddeford Mayor Alan Casavant, who also serves as a Democratic state representative, said he also worries that LePage's proposal would increase property taxes.
He said, "What we are trying to do is make the state aware that municipalities can't become victims by shifting costs."

Re: Boondocks season 4 is coming!
I was just thinking the other day if there would be another season of the Boondocks.
Re: Boondocks season 4 is coming!
Very interesting... that could be pretty damn awesome. I'd be more worried about it losing the writing style if some of my favorite episodes weren't from season 3 (The Red Ball, The Hateocracy, The Fundraiser, The Color Ruckus).

BEIJING, Nov. 24 (Xinhuanet) -- India jitters at the sight of China gaining prestige in Asia, in particular, in South Asia and Southeast Asia, and takes China's ever-growing regional influence in recent years as a strategic encirclement to target and contain India.
Not a few Indians believe the Chinese have a tradition of favoring encirclement game, as Jaswant Singh, former Indian finance minister, foreign minister, and defense minister, put it in his recent article: Asia's Giants Colliding at Sea?
"China, has wei qui (known in Japan as go), which focuses on strategic encirclement. As Sun Tzu advised many centuries ago, 'Ultimate excellence lies...not in winning every battle, but in defeating the enemy, without ever fighting." Singh wrote in the article.
It sounds nothing more than a loud jealousy, for the simple reason that China has done what India could not, especially when India perceives that China's influence has well reached to its doorsteps and created tremendous impact on those who should have banked on India as imagined.
"For India, the sense that a struggle for regional mastery is occurring has become increasingly keen. Chinese activity in Pakistan and Myanmar, the expansion of China's port agreements in the Indian Ocean (the so-called 'string of pearls'), and heightened Chinese naval activity in the Indian Ocean have jangled India's security antennas." said the article.
This also explains why India has been living under the delusion that China lays out a strategic chessboard to lock up and contain India, and thereby every act and every move of China could touch a raw nerve of India.
Jealousy can sometimes be put in the same breath of inferiority. India could trace its sense of being so self-abased to the brief border war with China in 1960s, when it was beaten by the Chinese army. And India has since eyed China with deep-seated distrust. The Indian media are always given to wild speculations on what on earth China intends to do. Any move Dragon takes in the region would in all likelihood vex Elephant.
On this basis, India would be bent on plotting to break through the so-called Chinese encirclement, and Mr. Singh would produce the delusional article conjuring up a picture of two giants colliding at sea.
Perhaps, when Mr. Singh turned out the article, he has yet to comprehend what it is as reality: What China has thus far done is a have-to as a nascent leading power with steady development, but China has already avoided setting foot on a path that many other great powers would follow in their history of growth and rise----invasion and plunder.
Instead, China has sought after a win-win model when it develops economic and trade relations with its neighbors, including India.
Why India appears so impatient to take more agreeable strategies in its periphery is still beyond understanding. But one thing is certain: Today's India, no matter how anxious it intends to lead the region and even the world, is far from potent and prosperous to act of its own accord----By currying favor with China's neighbor, in particular, those who have brewed disputes with China, India would assume, it could instigate these smaller nations to engage in a gang fight against China and contain China's growing clout in the region.
Unfortunately, either India or Mr. Singh seems to have miscalculated the situation: Nowadays, it is no longer those who have only teeth and muscle that can finally loom on the horizon posing as winners, but those who are confident and courageous, and have a strong body with a sound mind, the latter more important for a great power.
India might as well bear in mind: To build up a real power, neither self-satisfaction nor self-inferiority is a mature and constructive mindset.
In actuality, India has already learnt a good lesson in this regard. Its iron-clad suspiciousness of China and shortfall of confidence in opening to others put sand in the wheels of its own progress.
Two months ago, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, or ICBC - the world's biggest lender by market value, set up business in India, which is the first of four Chinese lenders to start operations in India and was expected to greatly boost investment in India's backward infrastructure sectors and foster the growth of a rupee-yuan market. While in comparison, even more than a decade ago, the same operations started up in Southeast Asian countries bringing an impetus to the local economies and remain as booming even today.
Back in 2006, China and India reopened crossborder trade through the Himalayan Nathu La Pass, 44 years after a brutal frontier war shut down the ancient route. It was expected to give a major boost to bilateral trade between the two countries. But, it turns out to be a picture of contrasts----ambitious tradesmen on the Chinese side vs. slackness of the Indian businessmen.
If India were as courageous as what China has managed to do----daringly reaching out to attract foreign investment and confidently going global, and perhaps, if India could forgo its restrictions on Chinese products and investment, it would progress even faster and would really rival China in the foreseeable future. "No competition, no progress", which is an inbuilt principle in market economy.
If India could carry itself with some ease and confidence, it would not be belittled by others, including China. But if it persisted in its "strategic encirclement" thinking of its giant neighbor, India would virtually step on a loss-making route, at least, in mentality.
In a nutshell, to grow up to be a real power and stand as a sound competitor, India needs to, first and foremost, break through its own psychological fence.
