Virginia Davis, Walt Disney's first human star and the original Alice of his partly animated Alice Comedies, died Saturday morning, animation historian Jerry Beck said on the Cartoon Brew site. She was 90.
Also known as Virginia Davis McGhee, she had been in failing health for the past year, Beck said.
In an interview published in this February's issue of Autograph magazine, Davis reflected: "In particular, I like to think that those who said over and over 'It all started with a mouse…' became aware that Walt Disney's career really started with a little four-year-old girl -- me!"
In 1924 and 1925, Davis appeared in the first 13 titles of Disney's Alice Comedies series, which was an innovative blend of live action and animation on film.
The comedies -- one-reel (5- to 10-minute) low-budget projects -- featured simple plots about the adventures of a live girl in Cartoonland. As Davis later recalled, "It was always a little story where I would get into the cartoon through a dream or I was hit on the head with a baseball, and suddenly I'd find myself in a world of cartoon characters."
She was born Virginia Margaret Davis in Kansas City, Missouri on December 31, 1918 to a homemaker and a traveling salesman. At age two, Davis began taking dance and dramatic lessons. A couple of years later, when Walt Disney was struggling with his first studio, Laugh-O-gram Films, he happened to see Davis in a Warneke's Bread advertisement in a local theater.
Later, when he went to produce his first Alice Comedy, Alice's Wonderland, he remembered her long, blonde ringlets and charming smile. Disney placed a call to her parents, and Davis became a star.
Due to legal complications, Alice's Wonderland did not see theatrical release, although it was shown privately to cartoon distributors in 1923. It was released decades later on the DVD collection Disney Rarities.
For the next two years, Davis starred in such Disney shorts as Alice's Wild West Show and Alice's Spooky Adventure for M.J. Winkler Productions. The "Alice Comedies" have been periodically featured on the Disney Channel during its Vault Disney segment.
Alice's Day At Sea, also with Davis, set a record many years later. In April 1994, a poster for the 1924 short was sold at Christie's in London for the equivalent of $36,534 U.S. This, according to Guinness World Records, is the highest price ever paid for a cartoon poster.
Davis later ended her tenure with Disney, who went on to make more than 40 other Alice films. She continued performing in the theater, including a West Coast tour of Elmer Rice's Street Scene, and in a number of films for such studios as MGM, RKO, Paramount and Fox.
Among her credits are Three on a Match (1932), starring Joan Blondell as Mary Keaton. She portrayed Blondell's character as a child. (Also in the film were a young Bette Davis and -- in a smaller role -- Humphrey Bogart.)
Later, Davis did voice testing for Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, as well as for some of the little boys' voices in Pinocchio.
In The Harvey Girls (1946), she was an uncredited Harvey Girl, appearing alongside Cyd Charisse and Judy Garland. She was in the scene in which Garland and Ray Bolger introduced the Oscar-winning song "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe."
She also appeared in such early TV shows as Your Hit Parade and One Man's Family.
Davis went on to earn a degree from the New York School of Interior Design and became a decorating editor for the popular 1950s magazine Living for Young Homemakers. In 1963, she began a successful career in the real estate industry in Connecticut and later, Southern California.
Over the years, Davis remained in contact with the Walt Disney Company, and was often a special guest at such events as the annual Disneyana Conventions held at either Disneyland or Walt Disney World.
She was inducted as a Disney Legend in 1998.
In 2005, Leonard Maltin interviewed her for the Walt Disney Treasures DVD set. That year, the Annie Awards presented her with its Winsor McCay Award for lifetime achievement.
She lived in Montana and Idaho during her final years.
Virginia Davis was predeceased in 2005 by Robert A. "Bob" McGhee, her husband since 1943. She is survived by daughters Margaret Sufke and Laurieanne Zandbergen, and by granddaughters Kristianne, Nicole and Juliette Zandbergen.

These are the steps we are going to follow:
1. Downloading tools for the job
2. Making 3d mesh
3. Skinning the mesh
4. Making the .cfg file
5. Importing into game
Lets begin
1. The Tools for the Job
First of all you gotta decide, and this key part of making the model: how determined are you? Unless your doing something simple, like a box or a circle, making a model is a hard task, unless you have experience at it. If it is your first time, you may end up making something horrendous looking for your first 20 attempts before making something good.
If this is too daunting, try looking for a free model to animate online, then move on to the second tutorial.
I havn't scared you off? Ok then here we go:
Your next decision is also key - do you want to pay some money to get programs that make the process easier and better, or are you happy with probably slightly poorer quality open source software?
My guess is Open Source :) So without further ado here are the programs you will need
1. Blender: http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/
2. Wings 3d: http://www.wings3d.com/
Also your going to need:
Npherno's compiler:
(If your going for commercial products, I would recommend you look into zbrush and 3ds max)
From here, you must learn to make your own 3d meshes. Just mess about in wings3d, and see what you can do. There many tutorials for wings on youtube and on google; go hunting! (I'll put a list up eventually of all the good ones I can find)
At this point I have assumed you have made your model. For the purposes of this tutorial I'm going to use a box. (right click cube) Now you need to make a uv map. Save your object as a wings3d file before we begin.
UV Mapping
Ok to begin you should see four cubes just above your image, the last one being totally red.
right click when its all red and go to uv mapping a new window appears.
choose the line selection tool and start mapping out the cuts
right click when your done and select mark edges for cut.
right click again and select continue and then unfolding
move everything around so that its orderly and delecte everything (to move scale or rotate, right click)
right click and create texture
now go back to the main model, and make sure it is all selected.
go to file - export - IMPORTANT!!! DONT click on wavefront, but instead click on the box to the right of wavefront
choose triangulation

Japanese Ninjas Instigated Simultaneous Attacks against US
Japanese Ninjas Instigated Simultaneous Attacks against US
Japan's Conspiracy (3) P5
On October 8, 1871, Northern United States suffered from conflagrations. Their scales were enormous and many Americans believe that they were caused by fragments of Biela's Comet striking the Earth. However, it has turned out that they were simultaneous attacks against the US by Japanese ninjas.
To tell the truth, the Japanese samurai government had set up the "Oniwaban" group of ninjas on October 8, 1716. Japan often uses date puns in terrorism.

This German two/five-seat bomber, close-support aircraft, night-fighter and reconnaissance aircraft was in service 1939-1945. With the Mosquito the Ju 88 ranks as the most versatile combat machine of all time. It was originally designed by a small group led by two Americans who were experienced in modern all-metal "stressed-skin" construction, and the first prototype flew in December 1936. It gained speed records, but the design had to be greatly altered before the Ju 88A-1 entered service with the Luftwaffe in late 1939.
It was easily the fastest of the three chief types of German tactical bomber ( Heinkel 111, Ju 88 and Dornier Do 17), having a speed close to 480km/h when unloaded. The bomb load was large, 1,800kg being carried in an internal bay and on four inner-wing racks. The engines were two 1,200hp Jumo 211B's, and the crew of three or four sat close together in the efficient forward fuselage with perfect all-round view and usual armament of three hand-aimed machine guns. The 88, called "the Three-Fingered 88" because of its long engine cowlings (which looked like radials because of the circular cooling radiators), was extremely strong and very maneuverable, but in the Battle of Britain it was shot down as easily as the other day bombers. Desparate defensive measures included four separate MG 15 machine guns all aimed by one man.
Large numbers were built of the Ju 88A-4 with longer wings to carry the heavy loads, the bomb load being increased to 2,500 or 3,000kg. Despite this the 88 continued to operate from rough sod airstrips, especially on the Russian front, its big mainwheels riding over the squashy surface and then turning through 90o to lie flat in the rear of the nacelles. Dive brakes under the wings were seldom used, most 88 missions being level bombing at high or very low altitudes. Versions were produced for torpedo dropping, night attack, training and various special duties, while the 88D series were tailored to long-range reconnaissance. The last of the bomber and reconnaissance versions was the slim streamlined Ju 88S, usually with 1,700hp BMW 801G radials, or 1,810hp 801TJ or 1,750hp Jumo 213E. Altogether 10,774 of all these versions were built.
Mahogany Wood. Scale: 1/36. Wingspan 21 7/8 inches, Length 15 7/8 inches.

Choices and Access regarding your Personal Information
We offer you choices regarding the collection, use, and sharing of your Personal Data. We may periodically send you free newsletters and e-mails that directly promote the use of our site or the purchase of our products or services and may contain advertisements for third party companies.

Before Clarabridge collects Sensitive Data (defined below) directly from any consumer, Clarabridge will offer the consumer an opportunity to opt-in to such collection, and we will provide an explanation of our privacy practices related to that information, if those practices differ materially from this privacy policy.

In such instances, however, Clarabridge may be unable to provide the services for which the Sensitive Data would otherwise be collected. An individual may elect to withdraw his/her consent to future collections of Sensitive Data by sending a written notice to Clarabridge at the email address or postal address set forth below. Such notice should state clearly that the individual wishes to withdraw his/her consent to Clarabridge's future collection of Sensitive Data directly from the individual.

We will exercise good faith efforts to provide access to such Personal Data within a reasonable time, to the extent it is available, and will exercise good faith efforts to correct or amend information that you believe to be inaccurate, except where the burden or expense of providing access, correction or amendment would be disproportionate to the risks to your privacy in the case in question or where the rights of other persons would be violated. You may also request deletion of your Personal Data by us, but please note that we may be required (by law or otherwise) to keep this information and not delete it (or to keep this information for a certain time, in which case we will comply with your deletion request only after we have fulfilled such requirements).

News List
Appleton ranked a top "Dream City"
The national recognition for Appleton keeps on coming. This week the website goodcall.com ranked Appleton the #4 "Dream City" in America.
Why not Appleton?
If you've heard Mayor Hanna give a speech in the last year or so, you've probably heard him ask the question, "Who do you know who has moved to Seattle, Portland, Austin or Minneapolis recently?" Often, at least someone in the audience will raise a hand. Indeed those cities are booming and are at the top of some people's lists of places to live.
But if you've heard that speech from Mayor Hanna, you've also heard him talk about how Appleton has and is getting many of the same amenities that those cities have, without the associated problems like traffic, crime and high cost of living. Believe it or not, Appleton is becoming a destination like those cities and this ranking is just the latest in a series of national rankings that validates that point.
Amenities make the difference
Referring to the cities we mentioned, Goodcall.com notes, "They're walkable. They have plenty of restaurants and places for recreation and entertainment. But rent is usually astronomical, and crime rates in some of them are scary."
Appleton has a very walkable downtown and many walkable neighborhoods. We're also in the midst of implementing recommendations from a recently completed mobility study that will improve that even more.
Appleton is also becoming an even more bike-friendly community as we continue to implement more miles of bike lanes each year. In 2018 bike lanes will extend from downtown all the way to Midway Road south of Highway 441, making an important connection for cyclists.
In its rankings, goodcall.com specifically notes that restaurants and entertainment options are keys to being at the top of the ranking. In fact, it says Appleton is in the top 20% in those categories among all of the cities it studied.
"Appleton is a good place to get out and enjoy a nice meal or a drink with friends – and feel safe doing so. The city has a crime rate of just 19.4 incidents per 1,000 people and boasts more than 200 restaurants and bars ... Residents enjoy the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center, the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers minor-league baseball team, more than 25 parks, and the exhibits at the History Museum at the Castle – a building that was once a Masonic temple."
Focus on the river
Of course the ranking also mentions the Fox River as another amenity. Stacey Angell was one of a number of you that mentioned it a recent post on our Facebook page about an upcoming TV program that will feature Appleton.
"The importance of the Fox River to our history, the locks system and how we now use it for recreation (i.e. Park to park paddle)."
There are a number of projects currently in the works along the Fox River. The RiverHeath development continues to expand, a future senior living community is in the works on the former Foremost Dairy site and we are working to acquire abandoned railroad trestles to connect our trails across the river.
Living here won't break the bank
Perhaps one of the best highlights that separates Appleton from the other big cities is our cost of living. Goodcall.com notes we are eight percent lower than the national average. Combined with our "Midwest nice" mentality, the diversity and generosity of our community, it should come as no surprise that we're at the top of the cities rated for the list.
"We have what all of those other cities have without the big city problems," said Mayor Hanna. "You all are the ambassadors for us and what we are building here and you are part of it."

The spring-fed fresh water system at Tub Springs State Wayside on Highway 66 east of Ashland is out of commission until August 31.
A leak damaged the electrical system, and repairs are underway. The park's picnic tables, restrooms and parking lot will remain open while repairs are completed.
Wagon trains on the Applegate Trail stopped at the spring in the mid 1800s, and the site became a state park in 1939. Visitors from all over southern Oregon still come to the park for a sample of the fresh, clear water.
Staff of the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department will issue a notice when the water systems are repaired.

It was an unusual day in Mumbai's life. Almost everybody knew what the judgment in the 26/11 case would be.
Some said it crudely, some said it loudly and some wished it silently -- that Ajmal Kasab, who cruelly and mindlessly killed 72 people with his AK-47 and grenades, should be given the death penalty.
But, then, under the Indian law a judge also has the option to interpret the crime and Kasab's own circumstances to forward the justification for giving him life imprisonment.
All hell would have broken loose had Judge ML Tahaliyani done that but, legally, that option was available, even though it could have been challenged in the higher courts.
As it ended, it was a day without surprises.
The court started the proceedings at 12.45 pm. "Silence!" said the assistant to the judge before Tahaliyani entered the court-room. Accused number one in the 26/11 Mumbai terror case, Kasab, came to his box after the judge started the proceedings.
Some 150 reporters waited to hear that loaded sentence about "phansi ki saaza" that we Indians are accustomed to hear in Hindi films.
Judge Tahaliyani has handled the case with ease and a certain style. He is fully aware that reporters want to rush to their mobile phone, television cameras and to their computers to tell the world about Kasab's fate. One could not but think of how his parents must be waiting in a village in Pakistan for news about their son.
The judge told the policemen to lock the door to the court-room and not open it till further orders. Special public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam informed the court that some documents have arrived from Lucknow in connection with Fahim Ansari and Sabauddin, two other accused who were acquitted on Monday by the court.
Then, the judge explained in detail why he gave the maximum punishment to Kasab.
Although the judge said, "He should be sentenced to death He should be hanged by the neck till he is dead" at 1.35 pm, the first hint that Kasab has been awarded 'phansi' came quite early.
Before delivering his judgment the judge asked Kasab's lawyer K P Pawar, "Can I ask him if he wants to say anything?"
Pawar asked Kasab to stand up, and told him, "You may talk to the judge."
Kasab refused to say anything. He seems to have gone into a deep depression since the last one month. He doesn't move, doesn't talk, he looks pale and uninterested. It is possible that this is due to his solitary confinement.
His lawyer and the Mumbai police strongly deny that anything is wrong with Kasab.
"Aap ko kuch bolna hai sazaa ke baare mein? (Do you want to say something about your punishment)?" the judge asked Kasab. That was the time he tried to look at him properly.
Then, judge Tahaliyani added, "Teen offenses mein aapko phansi ki sazaa ho sakti hai (you could be given the noose for three offences)!" The entire court-room got the message as the judge uttered the words. He then narrated the three offences in Hindi to Kasab who was on his feet and covering his face with his palm. The three charges were -- murders, terrorism and waging war against India.
Kasab nodded his head, shook his palm and sat down.
One knew that now that the Kasab story was over.
This Pakistani boy who did the unthinkable and unpardonable will never be free again.
In the enclosure where policemen and lawyers were sitting, there was excitement.
Ujjwal Nikam stood up to request the court that the judge should also pass an order for compensation for loss of properties during the 26/11 attack, but the judge was reluctant.
He argued back, "It is under my purview. I can pass it, but who will pay? How will you recover it and from whom will you get the money?"
Looking at Kasab, Judge Tahaliyani then said, "(Pakistani) Diplomats have not come, even to engage a lawyer."
Nikam said that during the Mumbai attack Rs 155 crore worth of property was destroyed.
However, the judge didn't pass any order for compensation since the money could not be recovered from the terrorist organisation Lashkar-e-Tayiba or Kasab.
Before giving the final verdict, the judge went into details of the merit of his decision to award the death penalty. The judge said prosecutor Nikam has relied upon judgments by Bachchan Singh and Machi Singh that laid down guidelines for the death penalty. Under that a balance sheet of 'aggravating' and 'mitigating' circumstances are to be prepared and only then can the maximum punishment be awarded.
Judge Tahaliyani said defence lawyer Pawar has argued that there were 'mitigating' circumstances in Kasab's case. Pawar said Kasab suffered from "mental disturbance," but the judge said, "I completely reject your argument. On the contrary, he appeared mentally prepared."
The second argument of the defence lawyer was about the possibility of reforming Kasab. When there is scope for reform and rehabilitation of a criminal, he can be given a lesser punishment.
But the judge said, "The probability of reform is ruled out. The way he has committed the offence doesn't give scope for it. The court has noted that this man has voluntarily gone to the doors of the LeT in Rawalpindi. He himself offered to become a mujahid."
The court says Kasab even refused to go to his native place in his early days, and said there is no chance of reform in his case. Pawar had said that Kasab committed the crime because he thought it was "morally justifying."
The judge rejected the argument saying there is no bona fide argument or evidence that Kasab did the act under duress or because of pressure from the LeT or its chief Hafeez Saeed. "There was no duress, no pressure on Kasab. Rather, when they were in Karachi, their travel got delayed. At that time Kasab was anxious to attack India."
Judge Tahaliyani, while awarding Kasab the death penalty, said he accepted Nikam's argument that "Kasab committed the murders with previous planning. It was a meticulous and systematic act. Modern equipment was used to ensure that the attack was successful."
Further arguing the decision to award the harshest penalty, the judge said, "Brutality is writ large in his act. I don't think any words are required to prove it. It was writ large on the faces of witnesses."
The special court in Mumbai also noted that Kasab had shown exceptional depravity.
At CST station, women and children had been killed, apart from many police officers. These two factors were noted by the court while deciding the quantum of punishment. The court said in unambiguous terms that it is difficult to prepare a balance sheet for Kasab. All the factors were going totally in favour of the prosecutor's case.
Judge Tahaliyani quoted from many Supreme Court judgments and said that "in this case it is impossible to mitigate any circumstances to favour the accused number one (Kasab)."
While quoting from a judgment he said, "It will be a mockery of justice to let the accused escape."
The judge said the harshest deterrent is necessary, otherwise the common man will lose faith in courts. Quoting from judgment after judgment that dealt with the death penalty Judge Tahaliyani said, "The court must not neglect the rights of criminals but the court must protect the rights of victims and society at large."
Judge Tahaliyani said due to previous Supreme Court judgments he was unable to give any other punishment to the accused.
The judge also noted that Kasab is a foreigner who voluntarily became a mujahid. He said there was clear instructions to all the accused to attack India, "They were determined to die," he said.
The judge surprised many when he recalled the Kandahar hijack of 1999 and pointed out that to release one prisoner, an airplane was hijacked and the government of India had to release the prisoner. Citing this incident, the judge said, "Keeping such a person alive will be a danger to society. It will be a constant challenge and a menace to society."
The court gave arguments and judgments in haste as reporters wanted to rush out and broadcast the news. Judge Tahaliyani listed out all the sections of the Indian Penal Code and various laws under which Kasab got four instances of death penalty and five of life imprisonment, and fines for many offences. The judge said the quantum of punishment is decided under the IPC's Section 120b read with Section 304, Sections 121 and 16 of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act; Sections 302 of the IPC for the murder of policeman Tukaram Omble and others; Section 303 read with Section 34 of the IPC; and Section 302 read with Sections 109 and 123 of the IPC.
When Kasab was told by the judge, "Kasab, court ne kaha marte dum tak aapko phansi pe latkaya jaye (the court has decided that you be hanged till death)," he showed no reaction or emotion. He only told hawaldar Bangdeo Yedekar to allow him to escape to his solitary confinement.

Rubin pointed out that the President referred to a bunch of terrorist attacks at the end of his speech in the Rose Garden and labeled those terror attacks but never specifically labeled the Benghazi attack as an act of terror. Rubin also pointed out that President Obama received more time the Governor Romney during the debate and Howard Kurtz interrupted to defend the inequality by saying the President Obama speaks slower than Governor Romney and that Romney got the same amount of "words" in the debate.

Former Royal Navy doctor and Portsmouth GP Dev Patel knew his life was spiralling out of control when he hardly saw his two young sons. So he quit the public sector, but used the skills acquired there to help rejuvenate his clients. Chris Owen reports.
This is a tale of what is fast becoming the scourge of the 21st century – how to achieve a meaningful balance between life and work. In that order.
How, in these days of swingeing budget cuts, reduced staffing levels and ever-growing expectations of the workforce, it is possible to be successful at home and at work. In that order.
Dr Dev Patel twice thought he had achieved his professional ambitions, but on both occasions realised the price was becoming too high.
In a comment which will ring alarm bells with so many parents, he says: 'I was leaving home in the morning before the children had got up and was coming home after they'd gone to bed.
'I was missing the bedtime routine and was becoming a stranger to my two sons.'
So first he sacrificed a successful career in the Royal Navy, then another as a GP in Portsmouth.
Today he must be one of the few former Surgeon Lieutenant-Commanders trained to treat battlefield traumas who now devotes his time to making people happier in their skin.
But if it had not been for the stresses of public sector life in the navy and then in general practice at Drayton, Portsmouth, he readily admits he would not have acquired the skills to set up a successful business in Southsea – a joint enterprise with wife Nishal. He looks after your face, she does feet.
The 39-year-old former Portsmouth Grammar School pupil joined the naval section of the school's combined cadet force and the seed was sown. 'I liked the idea of being in uniform,' he laughs.
But also instilled into him was a deep sense of public duty. It came from his father Ramesh, a well-known former GP in Buckland, Portsmouth, who launched a medical service for the homeless.
'My father always told me not to forget who puts the bread on your table – you must always give back to your community and your country.
'And I never forgot him telling me, when I was trying to decide between a medical and naval career, that even the presidents of the USA are treated by naval doctors.'
Dev qualified as a doctor from Guy's and St Thomas's Hospital in 2000 and joined the navy as a medical officer the following year.
In 2008 he was posted as Senior Medical Officer to the medical centre (sick bay in naval parlance) at Whale Island.
He had just arrived when he was told of a plan to close the practice and for the medical centre at HMS Nelson to serve both sites. With just two weeks' notice and his boss on holiday, Dev was told he had to run a management event to assess the efficiency, effectiveness and viability of the centre.
'That was the steepest learning curve I have ever experienced,' he recalls. 'The centre was closed for a week while we assessed the economics.
'In the end I did a presentation to senior officers and not only was it decided the Whale Island medical centre should remain open, but it was given a £1.4m grant to fund it.
'This was my first taste of business and, although it was a nerve-racking experience, I enjoyed it and felt proud of what I'd achieved, although not a day passes when I don't wish I was still in the navy.'
Dev's six-year commission was extended twice with promotion and his last two years of service were spent in Gibraltar as deputy principal medical officer. He retired in 2010 as a Surgeon Lieutenant-Commander.
He adds: 'The time was right for me to leave. I had two young children and a wife and the next two years would have meant being deployed for long periods of time on big ships and in Afghanistan.
'I wanted to settle down into family life with them.'
So although he avoided the long seaborne and foreign postings, he jumped from the frying pan into the fire and in August 2010 joined The Drayton Surgery as a GP and partner, taken on partly because of the business acumen he had displayed by saving that Whale Island medical centre.
'When I joined the sum given to practices was dropping by about 10 per cent a year and demand was growing with the very elderly Drayton population.'
Every few months he and the other six GPs at the practice realised they were working longer and harder.
Dev says: 'I was working 12 to 14 hours a day straight. ''Straight'' means not stopping at all for breaks.
'I could have done the hours had they not been so intense and that's what's driving a lot of people out of general practice. It's reached unsafe levels.
'I was trying to see between 20 and 30 patients in a morning. The highest was 42. By midday you'd be mentally dead because you simply can't process all that material.
'Take a patient who'd come to me complaining of headaches. If they went to hospital, excluding waiting time, they would get 30-40 minutes of assessment, a blood test and a scan. If I did that with just five per cent of patients who came in with a headache I'd break the NHS.
'And remember, if you miss a diagnosis it could be the end of your career.
'There's always a no-win-no-fee solicitor waiting for you to make that mistake.'
Gradually the pressures increased. 'I was working 14-hour days and seeing my children much less than when I was in the navy. Some weeks I would kiss them goodnight on Sunday evening and then not see them awake again until Wednesday evening.
'I just had to change my life and refocus on the reasons I left the navy.'
He left Drayton in March last year, although he still works as a locum one day a week, and bought premises in Winter Road, Southsea, to set up Perfect Skin Solutions in tandem with Nishal. And now? 'I try to close the clinic by 6pm and am home to spend time with the children, have dinner with them and tuck them up in bed.
'I know I made the right decision.'
Battling eyelid drop
It is said the eyes are the window to the soul, but sometimes puffiness and drooping eyelids can make you feel as if you want to close the curtains.
Dr Dev Patel says: 'Your eyes can age you if there is any dropping or lines.'
To combat this his Winter Road, Southsea, clinic has bought a Plexr machine, primarily used for eyelid drop.
Regarded as non-invasive surgery, the machine uses the ionisation of the gases in the air to form plasma which creates a small electrical arc that treats problem areas.
'Some people are scared about surgery, but this doesn't involve any knives,' says Dev.
'It doesn't touch the skin. It sends out an electrical arc that does touch it and then it produces a little scab. It forces the skin to contract and you see results almost straight away.'
The whole thing takes about an hour. 'It means you don't have a day in hospital,' says Dev.
'The machine is also good for acne and can also help scars to heal. It rejuvenates the skin.'
Dev's interest in dermatology started at Haslar and St Mary's hospitals in Gosport and Portsmouth in 2005 when he was in the navy and part of his general practice training.
'There were opportunities back then for me to do some aesthetic work, but I was wary. I thought ''why on earth do I want to play a part in making people look strange?''.
'Now I realise there are non-surgical ways of working with the skin which mean you don't look strange, just gradually different.
'So many of my clients come back to say their relatives and friends have just told them they look well.'

In a long ago post I shared the punchcard image below and the corresponding swatch and text: "The card is used double length throughout. Cast on in your favorite method. "Memorize" first row of pattern, set card to advance EOR, set KC to tuck in both directions, set RC (ribber carriage) for normal knitting throughout. This is a racked pattern. The numbers to the right of the card are for the racking position on each visible row (takes into consideration your eyes can view card 7 rows above card reader teeth). These markings will help prevent errors in long pieces or avoid confusion if knitting is interrupted for any length of time. The fabric is reversible, creating a textured checkerboard. For added interest and a color version, change color every 2 rows. I used this design in a line of "manly scarves" years ago. The repeat may be adapted for use on any KM."
The tracking for the racking sequencing may be created for any punchcard, whether punched holes are required in the card for patterning or not. The image below is taken from the Brother Ribber Techniques Book. If KC is used, no holes are punched, and the carriage is set to plain knit, though the card advances, all needles knit. End needle selection is not a factor.
the racking handle movement repeat isolated
In the card, for use on Brother, the first row of the repeat with machine on racking position 10 would be placed on row one pre marked position found on stock brother blank cards. Always check markings for your machine. I have a roll purchased for Brother kms specifically that actually are stamped for Studio, with # 1 two rows below where it should be on right. No holes need to be punched in this instance. Needles are brought into work and filled as illustrated in the ribber book page. Knit one row across stitches with card set to advance normally. In this instance marking row numbers in preferred colors will indicate when the racking sequence changes direction. Green rows rack to left, orange to right. The racking handle position repeat is 20 rows high (shown on left), a minimum of 36 rows for the card to roll properly) is met by repeating it twice, and the "motif" is broken up to accommodate the fact that the reader is working on 7 rows below row number visible on machine exterior. Rows 34 and 35 would become the 2 every square punched rows always placed at the top of pattern cards. The blue numbers on right reflect racking handle position for that row before the next row is knit. They can be marked on any blank square if card is blank, or alongside existing row numbers as seen in the punchcard for the checkered swatch. It is helpful to have consistent habits if one needs to stop for any length of time ie. always knit row, rack to position or stop after knitting, rack upon return.
Machine can be set for double length for racking after every 2 rows knit.

1 pound dried black-eyed peas
1 small smoked ham hock (about ½ pound)
2 bay leaves
2 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
10 cups water
½ pound fresh spicy chorizo sausage or spicy Italian sausage
1 cup rice
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup sliced scallions (6 to 7)
1 large red bell pepper, diced
- Soak the black-eyed peas overnight in water to cover by 2 inches. Drain well.
- In a large pot, combine the drained black-eyed peas, ham hock, bay leaves, garlic and water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a high simmer, partially cover and cook until the peas are almost tender, about 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prick the chorizos in several places with the tines of a fork. Fill a medium skillet with about ⅛ inch of water. Add the sausages and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the chorizos until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Set them aside and discard the cooking juices. When cool enough to handle, cut the sausages into ½ inch dice.
- Add the chorizos, rice and salt to the pot, re-cover and cook until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in the scallions and bell pepper about 10 minutes before the rice is done. If desired, pull off any meat from the ham hocks and add to the pot. Discard the bay leaves.

By Kathy Moses and Rachel Davis
Effectively managing a chronic health condition involves a myriad of tasks for anyone, ranging from scheduling and getting to frequent doctor appointments to regularly taking and refilling numerous medications and eating a healthy diet. Being homeless makes these basic tasks even more overwhelming, particularly if combined with additional chronic health and/or behavioral health conditions, which so many homeless individuals have.
Compared to individuals who are stably housed, people who are homeless are more likely to visit the emergency room, have a longer stay if admitted to the hospital, and be readmitted within 30 days. "Housing first" proponents suggest that in order for homeless individuals to effectively manage their health and mental health conditions, they must first be housed. More and more evidence shows that housing homeless individuals leads to reductions in health care utilization and costs.
Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) creates a new imperative at federal, state, and local levels to cost-effectively meet the needs of newly covered homeless individuals, recognizing the inarguable link between health care and housing. A recent Kaiser Family Foundation brief examining the early impacts of the expansion on the homeless population found significant increases in coverage for homeless individuals and new opportunities to improve access to care for this population.
Less certain are the most effective ways to use temporary and permanent housing to address the needs of newly covered homeless populations. Fortunately, many organizations and communities are exploring and testing new approaches that may serve as models for other organizations.
Community Collaboration To Prioritize Access To Health Care and Housing
For example, as part of CSH (formerly the Corporation for Supportive Housing) Social Innovation Fund Initiative, the San Francisco Department of Public Health, San Francisco Health Plan (SFHP), and the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation are partnering to provide supportive housing to the health plan's most expensive homeless Medicaid members.
Through the pilot effort, the Kelly Cullen Community, a newly renovated housing development with an onsite federally qualified health center, reserved nearly one-third of its 172 units for SFHP's highest-need, highest-cost homeless members. To date all of the reserved units have been filled.
Leveraging Medicaid dollars, SFHP uses care managers from its Care Support Program to provide ongoing care management to members once housed. This community-based model meets patients where they are and works closely with local social service providers who have experience in providing services to these members. A variety of funders, including city and state agencies, private banks, and CSH, supported both the construction of the building and the ongoing provision of housing services. Through a randomized controlled study of the pilot, researchers at New York University are measuring impacts on housing stability, mortality, tenant satisfaction, health status, and health care costs. Results are likely to be available later in 2015 and preliminary health care cost trends are promising.
Holistic Approach To State Budgeting
Just as important as front-line programs like the Kelly Cullen Community are more structural efforts to build support into state and local budgets. As one of his first tasks on entering office in 2011, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo commissioned an expert team to identify ways to reign in the state's Medicaid program costs. Recognizing that homelessness was a leading driver of health care costs, the Medicaid Redesign Team (MRT) recommended that the state invest in supportive housing for high-need, high-cost Medicaid beneficiaries.
Since 2012, over $260 million in state-only Medicaid dollars have been allocated in the state budget to fund the creation of new housing units, rental subsidies, and housing pilot programs (together referred to as MRT housing) targeting thousands of New Yorkers. These efforts are coordinated across a variety of state agencies, including the Office of Addiction Services and Supports, the Office of People with Developmental Disabilities, the Office of Mental Health, and the AIDS Institute.
Significant dollars have also been allocated for developing a centralized database that can track MRT housing vacancies and streamline the placement process. Roughly $1 million are being used to evaluate these MRT housing programs and pilots. New York State anticipates recouping these expenses via savings from reduced health care utilization.
These two examples represent new approaches to financing supportive housing for Medicaid beneficiaries. Another viable approach is social impact investment, which typically uses Pay for Success (PFS) contracts (also referred to as social impact bonds) to leverage philanthropic and private investment to fill the gaps in what Medicaid cannot pay for.
Under this approach, investors expect to see returns generated from the downstream health care savings that result from housing intervention. These arrangements emphasize accountability and results — if the intervention is not successful and savings are not achieved, no government funds are expended. Massachusetts launched the nation's first PFS initiative focused on supportive housing in December 2014. Over the next six years, the state is planning to build 500 supportive housing units for 800 individuals who are chronically homeless.
Persistent Barriers
As these examples show, the need to improve health outcomes and provide more cost-effective care is driving innovative approaches to tackling homelessness and housing. However, a number of critical barriers still exist, limiting such efforts:
Restrictions On Using Medicaid Dollars To Fund Housing
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services guidance, as recently reinforced in state waiver negotiations, prohibits states from using Medicaid dollars to pay for housing, including capital development projects and rental subsidies. As a result, state and local officials generally look toother funding sources to provide housing resources.
Inadequate Incentives For Managed Care Organizations To Invest In Housing Services
On the surface, it seems that managed care organizations have incentives to invest in housing for high-risk members given the strong evidence for decreased health care costs associated with supportive housing interventions. However, current approaches to managed care rate-setting can minimize or erase this incentive, since rate-setting methodologies generally only give credit for Medicaid-reimbursable expenditures. As a result, health plans that invest in housing may actually incur future rate setting "penalties" for the cost-savings they achieve.
Limited Availability Of Affordable Housing And Supportive Services
Due to factors ranging from cuts to federal assistance programs to rising occupancy rates andcost of living in urban areas, opportunities to create affordable housing units—either through capital construction or voucher designation—are often limited. In addition, many individuals who need supportive housing, particularly those with mental health diagnoses and disabilities, require additional services to ensure their stability. Many communities struggle to provide the necessary supportive services to individuals once housed.
Despite these challenges, there is growing momentum among local, state, and federal policymakers to develop housing options for homeless individuals with complex health care needs. Areas of interest include:
Expanding Medicaid Coverage For Supportive Housing Services
While federal Medicaid dollars cannot cover housing costs, many of the supportive services that are critical to effective housing interventions such as care management and service coordination may be financed by Medicaid. Relevant Medicaid coverage options for these services include health homes, federally qualified health centers that provide services to newly eligible Medicaid enrollees, Medicaid state plan options of rehabilitative services, targeted case management, or 1915i home and community-based waiver services.
Information on these approaches and examples from the field can be found in reports (primer andcase studies) released in Fall 2014 by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation. Further, via an informational bulletin released on 6/26/15, the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services identified circumstances under which Medicaid can reimburse for housing-related services.
Further Quantifying The Medicaid Return On Investment
Although there is a body of literature supporting the business case for providing housing to high-cost, chronically ill homeless individuals, more can be done to solidify the reasonable financial impact that housing can be expected to have on Medicaid health care costs. Such information may better position state and federal government partners to make investments in housing-related services. One possible outcome could be shared savings agreements between the state and Medicaid health plans to further drive the investment in housing-related services.
Forging New Partnerships With Philanthropy And Private Capital Investment
There is growing interest in Pay for Success contracting (described above) to provide supportive housing. As such, the Center for Health Care Strategies, a non-profit health policy resource center, is partnering with CSH to offer technical assistance to entities interested in using Pay for Success to invest in supportive housing for high-cost Medicaid populations under a recently launched initiative supported by the Corporation for National and Community Service.
Is housing health care? Perhaps a more important question is whether or not investing in housing for the homeless improves health outcomes while saving taxpayer dollars. The answer to this question increasingly looks positive, making it more and more likely that these kinds of investments will grow in the future.

Don't have a hoodie or coat that you want to add a little fur to? Then make your own anytime hood hat!
What You'll Need
- Scissors
- Pins
- Two sheets of fleece 20″ by 30″
- A strip of long hair faux fur about 24″ by 3″
- Thread that matches your colour of fleece
- Thread that matches your colour of fur
Making The Hood
Fleece doesn't need to be hemmed, so if you are making your own hood from scratch, this is a good choice of fabric, plus it's warm! You will need two 20″ x 30″ rectangles of fabric. Lay them on top of each other and cut the top right corner into a rounded hood shape. Stitch along the seam using a matching colour of thread from the peak of the hood, around the top and down the back until you are 15″ from the bottom. Turn it inside out and voila, now you have a hood to wear with anything that didn't come with one of it's own! Just tuck the hood tails into whatever coat or hoodie you want to wear it with!
Adding The Fur
Whether you want to spice up one of your hoodies or coats with a little fur, or you're adding the finishing touch to your new homemade fab hood hat, it's easier than you think! You'll need a strip of long hair faux fur 24″ x 3″. You can find it at almost any fabric store and it won't cost too much for such a small amount!
Fab Thrifty Tip : Have some faux fur laying around? You actually might! Lots of coats come with detachable fur collars that would be perfect! Have on old out of style coat with a fur rimmed hood? Chop it off and re-use it! Or hit up a thrift shop to find some of these money saving options!
First, turn your hood inside out. Fold your faux fur in half to find the middle and pin it to the inside peak of your hood. Make sure the fur side of your fabric isn't the part you'll be stitching down, (while your hood is inside out, the fur should be like the peanut butter of a sandwich and the hood itself should be like the bread). Use a thread that matches the colour of the faux fur and stitch down both sides of the fur on both sides of the hood. Try to use small stitches that are easily hidden in the long fur.Once it's attached, turn your hood right side out, fluff the fur and you should have a nice new fuzzy hood frame for your face!

Latest Football News
Barcelona finally land Ousmane Dembele
After days of speculation, denial, and ignorance Barcelona finally lands an ideal replacement for Neymar Jr. The Coutinho Saga seems to have hit a dead-end, and it looked like Barcelona would have to make peace with Paulinho as their only signing of the year after Nelson Semedo. Dembele being an ambidextrous forward has caught the attention of the World after his Dortmund exploits, and a €105 million investment plus €30 million add-ons doesn't seem to be a lot after seeing where the transfer market is headed to. Dembele penned down a 5-year contract, and the influence of Samuel Umtiti might have rendered the deal plausible.
Dembele has big boots to fill, but the 20-year old Frenchman is no stranger to such limelight. His Dortmund days saw him face the likes of Jerome Boateng, Lahm, Arturo Vidal, and Xabi Alonso amongst other high-profile players. Dembele had put up a stellar display against Real Madrid when BVB Dortmund met the former twice in UEFA Champions League group stage last year.
Messi hits his 350th La Liga Goal
Amongst the turmoil inside the club, the little Argentine Maestro managed to hit a superb brace to register his 350th goal for the Catalans. Deportivo Alaves has proven themselves to be a tough opposition especially in their own den, and it took 54 minutes for Barcelona to break the deadlock after a tremendously well-placed cut back from Jordi Alba, and Messi got ahead of his market to slot in a superb finish. Eleven minutes later, Alaves defence crumbled when Alexis tried to be a tad too clever and allowed Alcacer to pick his pocket, and the Spanish forward played in Messi for his 351st goal in Catalan colours.
Messi could have bagged another hat-trick when he cleverly dinked one over Pacheco only to see the woodwork block his much-deserved hat-trick. Barcelona started with a different three-man forward line that saw Messi play as Centre forward and flanked by Deulofeu and Aleix Vidal. Valverde will have to make such rotations till Suarez is deemed fit enough to start. Alcacer looked lively off the bench, and he is eager to grab a stranglehold on the starting eleven.
Kevin Mirallas could well bid farewell to his Everton days
The Belgian could well be on his way out of England as the player was allowed to leave for Belgium for unspecified reasons ahead of Everton's Chelsea fixture. With the Toffees bringing in the services of Gylfi Sigurdsson it looked like Mirallas could see less game time. Mirallas could well be on his way to Turkey to ply his trade for Besiktas, while a move to former club Olympiacos could also materialise. However, Everton are expecting the Greek club to spill out more money if they are to avail the service of the 29-year old Belgian.
