The closest main London railway stations include London Bridge, Waterloo and Stratford International. All three stations can be reached via the Jubilee line from Canning Town which is a seven-minute DLR journey to the airport. If you wish to continue your journey outside London to any other UK destination by coach you are best to head to Victoria Coach Station and pick up a coach from there. Help on getting to Victoria can be found on the Transport For London website.
Bus tickets for National Express can be booked online for other UK destinations. Select your travel details below to book online:

(Please note: If you buy a bus ticket using the form above for a specific time and you are delayed, the ticket will still be valid for any bus for 24 hours from the original departure time.)
There are no national train services from London City Airport. If you wish to travel on to another UK destination you will need to take the DLR to Canning Town tube station which is 7 minutes on the Docklands light railway then take the Jubilee Underground line to a mainline railway station such as Euston, Paddington or Waterloo and take a train from one of these hubs to your next destination. If you want more timetable information or want to check prices click the link below. Remember it is often cheaper to buy two single tickets for UK trains than a return ticket.
If you have a very early flight from London City Airport or arriving late you may wish to spend the night at a hotel near London City Airport which can work out cheaper than central London itself.

* Going into their Game 7 Armageddon for the Adams Division title tonight, the Montreal Canadiens hold a 5-0 edge over the Boston Bruins in showdowns during the last 11 seasons.

"I believe I've been effective as lieutenant governor and can be more effective in other office and I look forward to that. Thank you," Sheila Simon said Wednesday morning. And with that, Simon's three minute and eight second news conference was over. She's moving on- but she didn't say where.
"Well, it didn't come as a surprise," Gov. Quinn said. The split with the governor comes as Quinn struggles with a poor approval rating and the possibility of two high-profile primary challenges.
Quinn is also under siege from his biggest ally in his last race: public employee unions that picketed his event Wednesday. Sources close to the governor say he hopes to find an African-American running mate to shore up his increasingly shrinking base.
"I have a job to do on policy. And I think that's what people want their governor to do. Not politics, policy," Gov. Quinn said.
The Simon surprise comes as a new poll - conducted by The Paul Simon Public Policy Institute , a downstate policy group named for Simon's father - shows: Among Democrats, Lisa Madigan is the favorite in the race for governor with 32-percent support; Quinn gets 23-percent; and former White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley gets 12-percent of primary voters. Twenty-eight percent say they're still undecided.
"It's always nice when people believe in the work you're doing," IL Attorney General Lisa Madigan said of the survey. When asked about running for governor, she said, "I have not made up my mind about what I'm going to do but thanks for asking."
ABC 7 political analyst Laura Washington says Simon's decision may have come with some assurances.
"It's in Lisa Madigan's interest to have Sheila Simon step away from Pat Quinn and move away because it makes Pat Quinn look even weaker and Lisa Madigan a stronger candidate," Washington said.
"Well I know this: The Madigan's - Lisa and Mike - don't do anything that isn't in their self, political and personal interest so it very well could be some kind of deal," Illinois Republican Party Chairman Pat Brady said.

Another effort to depress GOP turnout, courtesy of the New York Times and Qunnipiac.
The New York Times, in collaboration with Quinnipiac University and CBS News, is tracking the presidential race with recurring polls in six states. In Ohio — which no Republican has won the presidency without — Mr. Obama is leading Mr. Romney 53 percent to 43 percent in the poll. In Florida, the president leads Mr. Romney 53 to 44 percent in the poll.
The surveys, which had margins of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points for each candidate, also included a Pennsylvania poll, where Mr. Obama is leading Mr. Romney by 12 percentage points.
So Obama allegedly is up 10 in Ohio, 9 in Florida and 12 in Pennsylvania? Sure.
Here's the sample they use.
So Obama is up 9 in Florida with a D+9 sample, up 10 in Ohio with a D+9 sample and up 12 in Pennsylvania with a D+11 sample. I notice in all the orgasmic news reports this morning none of them mention the ridiculous skew to the polls. But all you will hear all day is how big a lead Obama has.
This is not to suggest Romney doesn't have some problems six weeks from election day, but is there anyone out there who believes he's going to lose any of these states by double digits?
I'm starting to wonder if these polling outfits are secretly working with PPPPolling.

The Wolf and the Crane
A wolf was one day eating his dinner. He was very greedy. He ate so quickly that a bone stuck in his throat. He tried hard to get it out but all was in vain. Then he went to the crane and said, "Good morning, Crane. Will you help me to do something?"
"What can I help do you?" asked the crane.
"I have a bone stuck in my throat. You have a long bill, and so you can draw it out", said the wolf. "If you do that for me, I will give you a reward."
"Let me try," said the crane. "It is not difficult for me to do so."
The wolf opened his mouth wide. The crane put her bill in and drew out the bone. "Now will you give me the reward, please?" the crane asked the wolf.
"Reward?" said the wolf. "Don"t talk about that. You should be thankful to me. Although you put your head into my mouth, I did not bite you. What more do you want?"

What to CookAmanda & Merrill
Butternut Squash and Cider Soup: 1993
- Amanda
This is a great soup to have in your everyday arsenal. It's sweet, purely flavored and can be made in a flash. The recipe came from Canyon Ranch, back when the Berkshires spa was little known but expensive. Now it is just the latter. I think it's the perfect thing to serve the week after Thanksgiving, when you still crave the flavors but need a break from the heft.
1993: Butternut Squash and Cider Soup
Jodi Eisner, Livingston, NJ, email.
"I've given this recipe to so many people, who have told me that they've passed it to so many people, that I do believe that if you come to my Livingston neighborhood on Thanksgiving day, you can smell all the pots of it simmering!"
Cooking Notes:
The recipe called for a red Rome or Delicious apple, neither of which I found tart enough. I changed it to Honey Crisp or Granny Smith.
Serves 4
- 1 shallot, sliced
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and minced
- 3 cups peeled, seeded and cubed butternut squash
- 1/2 cup chicken broth, homemade or low-sodium canned
- 3/4 cup apple cider
- 1/4 cup light sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 unpeeled Honey Crisp or Granny Smith apple, cored and finely diced
- Cracked black pepper
1. Heat a medium-size saucepan over low heat. Add the shallot, garlic and 1/4 cup water. Cook until the shallot and garlic are softened, being careful not to let them burn, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the squash and the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer until the squash is soft, about 20 minutes.
2. Carefully pour the mixture into a blender. Holding the top down with a towel, blend until smooth. Add the cider, sour cream and salt. Continue blending until well combined. The soup can be made ahead up to this point. Place in a clean saucepan over low heat until heated through. Season with additional salt if needed.
3. Ladle the soup among 4 bowls. Garnish with the diced red apple and cracked black pepper. Serve immediately.

The Chinese have been making ceramic etching decals for centuries, but they will not give up the formula, though I have had a spy or two try to obtain it. There were hints at gum Arabic and honey, which I tried, but this is the formula I settled on.
- 1.5 tsp powdered gum Arabic
- 0.25 tsp Gerstley Borate or Laguna Borate [flux to help the mason stain melt and stick]
- 1 tsp mason stains [powdered color for cone 10 ceramics]
- 1 tsp Akua transparent etching base
You'll also need these materials:
- Cheap American tissue paper
- Newsprint
- Etching burnisher
- Soft paintbrush
- Etched or solar plate for image
- Greenware pot
Creating a DecalMix the ingredients together. Wipe the plate as usual for intaglio. Place the plate on the press and set it to etching pressure. Place tissue paper on plate. Wet and blot newsprint. Place this over the tissue on the plate (Akua does dampen the tissue a little, but more moisture is necessary for a good impression).
Run it through the press and you now have a decal. Decals work best in the first few days but can be saved and used weeks later.
Printing the Decal on the Pot
Cut or tear off the portion of decal to be transferred. Wet the pot with a paintbrush to moisten clay. Wet the back of the decal tissue. Place on the damp area of the pot, jelly side down, wetting back slightly to stick tissue to pot. Thoroughly burnish decal. Remove decal. Clean edges if necessary by scraping gently with end of burnisher.
Use a little Akua blending medium mixed with the ink and a small brush to fix slightly mussed decals.

For example, does your organization struggle with any of the following issues?
- A culture resistant to change that simply perpetuates the status quo
- Deficiencies in managerial capability
- No solid fact base for linking "human capital strategy" to business results

- Your leaders are so busy dealing with the urgent "issue-of-the-day" that they don't pay attention to much more important issues
At McBassi our greatest expertise is tackling these problems by transforming the "soft" people stuff into the hard-nosed language of business. How?
- Quantifying that which was heretofore intangible

- Identifying with precision and rigor the human drivers and impediments to how value is created
- Presenting our analysis in simple and compelling ways that provides a clear roadmap forward, while simultaneously exposing the risks of inaction

Quick summary
When existing breast cancer treatment methods don't offer as much hope as you'd like, the next thing to think about may be a clinical trial. This can be the best way to get access to new treatment options that aren't available otherwise. However, joining a clinical trial comes with its own share of discomforts and risks -- and depending on how the trial is structured, it can seem like a shot in the dark.
Still, it's a good idea to be informed about clinical trials. Here's how to start exploring the advantages and risks:
What's a clinical trial?
Drug companies, doctors, and medical researchers use clinical trials to test the effectiveness of new drugs, medical devices, and treatment methods. Clinical trials can also be used to compare different treatment methods and see which is more effective. Sometimes a drug or treatment that has already been tested and approved for one condition or group of patients is given an additional trial to see if it works for another condition or group. For example, a drug that works for prostate cancer might be tested to see if it also works for breast cancer.
Getting into a clinical trial is often the only way to try new drugs and treatment methods that haven't yet been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the branch of the government that screens new medications for safety. However, because drugs and treatments in trials are still experimental, there may be unknown safety risks.
Clinical trials are necessary to ensure that effective new treatments eventually find their way to patients -- the drugs and treatments currently available all went through clinical trials. The testing process for new drugs and treatments is rigorous, requiring multiple steps so that researchers have plenty of chances to spot side effects and monitor risks. Clinical trials are conducted in four separate phases to ensure safety.
What does it mean if the study is "blind"?
A blind study is one in which patients are randomly assigned into two groups, one of which receives the new drug or treatment being tested, while the other receives standard treatment. In some blind studies (though never in breast cancer studies), the new drug is compared to a placebo, which is an inactive pill that looks just like the drug being tested.
These clinical trials are called "blind" because patients don't know which group they're in. A double-blind study is one in which neither the participants nor the researchers know which group is receiving which treatment. Placebos aren't used when researching treatment for breast cancer or other serious diseases because they are never used in cases where not receiving treatment would endanger the participants in a trial.
To get in a clinical trial, is it necessary to change doctors?
That depends. In some cases, your oncologist may recommend or support joining a clinical trial, and may be able to work closely with the team conducting the trial and continue to oversee treatment. In other cases, enrolling in a clinical trial may require going to another medical facility -- even one outside the area o r out of state -- and accept the supervision of a new medical team.
Does a clinical trial offer better care?
That's quite possible, but it depends on the particular clinical trial, and also on the level of care you -- or the person you're caring for -- is currently receiving. Typically, participation in a clinical trial requires very close monitoring, including lots of tests and personal attention from researchers who may be top specialists in their field.
On the other hand, researchers in a trial are naturally focused closely on the effects of the drug or method they're testing. They may not be as focused on monitoring patients' overall hea lth and well-being, coordinating other treatments, and offering help in dealing with side effects and lifestyle issues.
Does participating in a clinical trial pose extra risk?
By definition, a clinical trial is trying something new that hasn't been fully tested, so, yes, there are risks due to possible side effects, drug interactions, or other symptoms that the researchers don't yet know about. Of course, researchers want the drug or method to be safe and to protect patients from harm, so you can be sure they have patients' interests at heart. And if it's a phase III trial, which is most common, the treatment has already been tested in previous trials. Still, entering a clinical trial does pose additional risks that you should be sure to understand fully.
Do clinical trials require anything special from patients or families?
Clinical trials are conducted by a research team that usually includes doctors, nurses, social workers, dietitians, and other health professionals. The te am will give you -- or your family member -- specific instructions to follow, which may include keeping logs or filling out questionnaires. Also, the research team may need to stay in contact after the trial ends.
Will insurance cover a clinical trial?
The answer isn't simple, and it depends on the type of insurance, the state you live in, and many other factors. Typically, the organization sponsoring the clinical trial covers what are considered the "research costs," which include everything associated with the running of the trial: data collection and management, the time spent by the research physician and nursing staff, and the tests performed as part of the trial. There is, however, a whole set of additional costs known as "patient care costs," which usually include transportation to and from the trial, as well as blood tests and other tests not directly related to the trial. The sponsoring organization often doesn't cover these.
There's good news, though: At the urging of the National Cancer Institute, a growing number of states have passed legislation requiring health plans to pay the cost of routine medical care that patients receive while participating in a clinical trial.
This doesn't mean, however, that insurance pays all the costs. Clinical trials often involve additional tests, medications, and medical appointments that don't fall into any of these categories. Some health insurers and managed care prov iders will decide if they'll cover patient care costs based on whether they consider the trial treatment to be "experimental" or "investigational" -- in which case they'll say no -- or "established" -- in which case they may cover it. Disputes often must be negotiated between the research sponsor and the insurance company.
Medicare does reimburse patient care costs for its members who participate in a clinical trial to diagnose or treat cancer. Information about Medicare coverage of clinical trials is available at www.medicare.gov (click on the Search Tool called "Find Out What Medicare Covers" and, on the next screen, choose the coverage topics "Clinical Trials" for inpatients, outpatients, or both).
How do I find a clinical trial for breast cancer treatment?
The first step in finding a clinical trial is to speak with your doctor about what types of new treatments are being studied and what might work best for you or the person in your care. Let the doctor know that you'd like to consider a clinical trial, and discuss the possible approaches. There may be several options to consider, or there may be one specific treatment your doctor recommends.
Surprisingly, though, many breast cancer patients and their families find that their oncologists aren't the best source of information about clinical trials. A national survey of cancer patients found that eight out of ten cancer patients were unaware of the existence of clinical trials, and that doctors reported being unable to help their patients enroll because they don't have the time, staff, or funding to keep up with the vast number of trials happening across the country. The best way to find out about clinical trials is to research them yourself. To do so, see Clinical Trials for Breast Cancer Treatment: A Step-by-Step Guide .

Sarah Michelle Gellar gets another shot at television
Look out, Sarah Michelle Gellar fans, because your girl might be back on TV. CBS orders a pilot of a new comedy with Robin Williams.
Buffy's back on TV! Well, sorta: She's shooting a pedigreed pilot for CBS.
"The Crazy Ones," reports TV Guide, stars comedian Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar as a father-daughter team heading an advertising agency. Her character is "pretty, intense, driven, organized and burdened with being practical," reports TV Guide.
"The Crazy Ones" is being written by David E. Kelley (Boston Legal, Ally McBeal).
Gellar gave a TV comeback the old college try with 2011's Ringer on the CW, but the show failed to catch fire despite its twisty premise of good/evil twins both played by Gellar, who hasn't had a television hit since Buffy the Vampire Slayer ended its run in 2003.
Since Gellar was both star and co-producer on the series, she took a hit from Ringer's cancellation.
On the bright side, Gellar gave birth to her second child, son Rocky James, in September, joining daughter Charlotte Grace, born in 2009. Ringer finished up at the end of September, too, just a few weeks after Rocky was born. Gellar hasn't been seen on-screen since, though some voice work she's done for The Simpsons, American Dad and Robot Chicken has aired.
Sarah Michelle Gellar: I don't weigh myself >>
If the CBS pilot gets picked up, it will mark a return for Robin Williams as well. He hasn't been on television regularly since Mork & Mindy back in the 1980s, though he did show up in a memorable guest role on Louie last year, as himself, with big white whiskers, because of course, everyone "knows that whenever Robin Williams plays a serious role, he sports a beard," wrote Slate's Louie recapper hilariously.
On the episode "Barney/Never," Williams showed up at the same funeral as Louie, and then Louie and Williams went to lunch and a strip club.
He was funny, too. Will he be funny on "The Crazy Ones?" Guess we'll have to see. Or not, because if CBS doesn't order a series, we'll never see it.
"The Crazy Ones" as a title doesn't bode well, but the pilot is being directed by Jason Winer, who was responsible for the commendable Modern Family pilot, as well as most of the eps from the show's first season, when it was really good. So maybe this has a shot. Let's cross things!
Would you like to see Gellar in a comedy as opposed to a drama? Has she got the chops?

I did a revamp on my landscaping. I have been in my house for 15 years so I had Ferngully come out and they gave me an awesome design. I was pleased through the whole process. Thanks guys for your hard work!

My design was somewhat tricky with the drainage issues I was having in my backyard. They revamped a prior design I had including a patio and landscaping. They fixed the drainage, as it has rained several times since then, and the overall project looks great and I couldn't be happier.

I had a fairly small job with a walk way relaid and flowers thinned and relocated. They did an awesome job. Came when they were scheduled and left everthing clean and neat. Would definately recommend.

Levi did an amazing job. The paver patio and pond-less waterfall turned out far better than expected. He creatively addressed site challenges. The result is wonderful. I trust his judgment completely, and found myself saying "just do what will make it look great". I couldn't be happier.

I had a hard time getting contractors out to my property for bids but than received this company's card from one of my friends. I gave them a call, they followed up promptly and had my quote shortly. We worked out a whole plan for my pool area and had it implemented. They were respectful and prompt and exceeded my expectations. I had the whole yard revamped including paverstones and fire pit and love the detail and quality. I saw the value of what they were offering and recommend them to anyone who is needing a company to take charge and do the job right the first time.

These guys are prompt, dependable and quality oriented. Any request that I have of the owner is quickly acted upon to more than my satisfaction. I receive many compliments from my neignbors over the consistent quality appearance of my property. Thanks Ferngully. I recommend your fine service to everyone!

FernGully does year round maintenance on my property. I travel a lot and have them care for everything on the property. I never worry about it and always come home to a beautiful yard. They reel mow my lawn which makes it look great. I definitely recommend them.

They are very informative and knew what they were doing. I had multiple companies come out and give me a bid but i felt most comfortable with them. I am ultimately happy I went with this company because they exceeded my expectations. I am having them come back to do other work.

I can't say enough about this company. They are great with design ideas and followed my budget. I have been looking for a company that actually returns phone calls and can answer my questions. I had them do some rock work and sod that turned out awesome. They created a design that was low maintenance and complimented my yard well. I highly recommend tis company.

Levi provided quick quotes, valuable suggestions and installed ahead of schedule. He brought a great respectful crew, redesigned difficult areas on the fly and created a beautiful environment. I highly recommend Ferngully. Ask Levi for my number and give me a call. Thanks, Levi! Ardith

I wanted to update my landscaping and they were able to show me a design before I had them install. They knew exactly what my ultimate goal was and found them to be very experienced. The quality and look that I have now was well worth it.

I was very confident in my choice of landscapers. I received multiple bids but found Ferngully to be the most knowledgeable about my project. I had them build a paver stone patio with trellis for my pool area. It turned out beautiful and the best investment that I have done. I would work with them again.

Fun Facts: Coffee Improves Memory Of Bees
August 30, 2015 Drink No Comments
Most of us cannot imagine our mornings without our cup of coffee.
So its not only us who love our cup of coffee, but also bees love their favorite cup of joe.
Did you know that coffee helps improve the long term memory of honey bees?
An interesting survey conducted on bees showed that those which had caffeine were able to trace their way back, from one flower to another flower as they flew over a flower bed.
This finding is an interesting unknown fact about coffee beans. Who would have thought that the caffeine present in coffee beans, can help improve the long term memory of the bees.

Google is now making the lives of mobile users easier. Chances are you've done an online search from your smartphone and landed on websites that aren't mobile-friendly. It makes it difficult to find quick information when you're zooming in and scrolling left to right.
My favorite line from all the articles I've read about Google's impending shift to move all keyword data to "not provided" is "Stop worrying about Google", by Neil Patel. This shift would be Google's continuation of their move to make some keyword data "not provided" a couple of years ago. Stopping your worry about what Google is going to do next doesn't mean you have to like what's going on, but it's always good to stop worrying about things you don't, or can't, control. Right?
Google's been busy again with its Algorithm updates. In September and October they released a few new updates that may have affected you and your website(s). The one update I found most noteworthy was something Google has been talking about doing for a while, the exact-match domain update.
In a recent 'rant' post titled "Your B2B site doesn't need more freakin' words" the topic of content creation was discussed. The basic premise of the post, and you should definitely read it for yourself, was that SEO's out there are still working on formulaic SEO writing strategies that include word counts, frequency (as in regular blog posts), and keyword phrase density, and that they shouldn't be.
Are you an SMB that struggles to integrate social media? Apparently you're not alone. In a recent article published by eMarketer, the percentages showed about 50% of SMB's don't currently use social media to engage their audience. About 25% don't even plan to in the next 12 months. That's amazing, and telling.
Today, content and content marketing are playing a central role in online brand visibility. Without a steady flow of fresh, relevant, well-written content your site will not be maximizing its search engine presence.
Content can come in many forms, all of which – if optimized – can set your site apart from competitors, giving you better online brand visibility, but perhaps even more important – a voice. A seat at the table, as they say, brings thought-leadership which goes miles toward shrinking sales cycles and converting new business.
These content ideas and more are what it takes these days. Explore our site to learn more or give us a call today to walk through countless content marketing ideas that will have you standing out from the crowd.

Tinypass Gets Bigger With Swishu Acquisition
Company gains tech, clients and human capital in deal.
Tinypass, a Web monetization solution provider, is expanding into the fulfillment space by acquiring startup Swishu.
Tinypass was founded in 2011, and its clients include Hearst Magazine brands, Esquire and Cosmopolitan, as well as independent sites like Andrew Sullivan's The Dish. The company offers a slew of commerce and digital content solutions; but CEO, Trevor Kaufman, says there was a clear demand for paid content and digital fulfillment services.
"It's something our clients have been asking for," he says. "Most publishers we talk to are frustrated with their ability to solve their print subscriber base, that's not the problem we're looking to solve. We're much more focused on the fact that banner ads alone are not going to sustain premium publishing. But if we're just focusing on the website we are potentially leaving them [publishers] with a headache for managing their legacy subscriber base."
Managing that subscriber base is where Swishu comes in. The startup offers paywall solutions for publishers, radio stations and bloggers, plus extras like subscriber database integrations and real-time analytics.
In addition to the technology, Kaufman says human capital was an important factor in the acquisition. While he would not disclose specifics, he indicates the transaction included cash and equity, plus Tinypass is bringing in the entire Swishu team of five, including its founder, Nathan Goulding, who will now serve as vice president of product engineering.
Tinypass and Swishu will be maintained as two separate products for now, but Kaufman contends that the plan is to bring them together as quickly as possible. "We are maintaining the code bases separately so we don't disrupt our clients," he says. "The Swishu staff will be focused on how to bring the code base together so we have one product."
Kaufman also suggests that the company is working on several other innovations that go beyond the current suite of monetization tools publishers have at their disposal.
"Right now there is a tremendous amount of activity in display and not much after that," he quips. "What we're focused on is being a one-stop shop for publishers. We are trying to develop a way to reward readers. There's a rich functionality in that vision, and we think that's going to put a lot of money in publishers' pockets."
Kaufman is referring to an exchange system where readers can be rewarded for social shares, registrations, ad views and other standard practices in content consumption. It's currently in development. "This a frontier that not a lot of publishers have been able to experiment with, there's so much opportunity we're seeing on the publisher side," Kaufman says.

Here are my notes for Divergence (1972) as well, an album I just could never get into: What a dubious opening for Solution's second album Divergence - the first 6 minutes of 'Second Line' mounting to nothing more than a crooner's piano ballad that is painful to endure. But the last two minutes of said track offer hope for those of us who adored their debut album. The following title track will remind most folks of Focus, and that's because it was included as part of the 'Eruption' track as found on Moving Waves, though the organ and sax breaks found here are entirely their own. 'Concentration' veers dangerously close to being a proto Kenny G, when the music suddenly takes a dark turn to the skanky bar on the corner. And after the drunks have left, the band gets down to business and proves their instrumental worthiness. The album closes as it starts, and is the death knell. I can only shake my head, as the immense brilliance of the debut is pretty much lost here.
Personal Collection
LP: 1971 Catfish
CD: 2012 Esoteric (UK)
Originals are housed in a single sleeve cover. I love the little kid on the tricycle with his life-vest "solution" riding along the canal, which is absolutely priceless. The snapshot of a quiet sunny 1971 neighborhood in Holland (Spaarnwoude apparently) is also great. My first copy was the 1996 2-on-1 CD, and after viewing the cover, I knew I must own an LP (the 1972 UK Decca copy). Eventually I purchased the original Catfish version to go along with the UK LP. Since I'm not a big fan of Divergence, and the EMI CD is absolutely void of details, I recently upgraded to the Esoteric version, which has its usual fantastic liner notes and photos (and this one sounds great, which isn't always the case with Esoteric). No bonus tracks though. Update: OK, the 2 for 1 CD is now hitting the sell bin, as well as the Decca LP.
Placebo - s/t. 1974 Belgium
This is my personal favorite of the three Placebo albums. Here the grooves go deeper, and the solos are more intense. Best of all the compositions are, to a greater degree, more unique.

Placebo - 1973. Belgium

Placebo – Ball of Eyes. 1971 Belgium
For an album from the 1971 jazz scene, Ball of Eyes is remarkably focused, without any experimentation or free jazz moments which were still in vogue during that time. Not edgy like same era Miles Davis, Wolfgang Dauner or even other rare Euro groovers like the Sunbirds. In fact when I first heard it, I was certain it was from 1975 or later. The horn charts are all very well done and they do catch that certain 70s spy groove. It's all a bit too laid back for me to consider it a 5 star masterpiece, but its wide appeal is undeniable.
Personal collection
CD: 2011 P-Vine (Japan)
Original LPs are off the charts expensive, and I personally wasn't aware of Placebo until the last 6 years or so. After obtaining CD-R copies and pleading for a reissue on the CDRWL, we were all rewarded last year with fully authorized Japanese mini-LPs from P-Vine. Ball of Eyes in particular benefits from the format, given that the original features a cool gatefold cover.
Svenska Lod AB! – Horselmat. 1971 Sweden
Personal collection
CD: 2011 Creole Stream (Japan)
One of the rarest albums from Sweden, if not the rarest. Pressed in a micro quantity of 200 copies. Privately released album in an era when that kind of thing was unheard of, except in England perhaps.

Yellow Sunshine - s/t. 1973 USA
Personal collection
CD: 2010 Sony (Japan)
Gamble Records comes from a one Kenny Gamble and his label was a part of Epic Records. The original has an embossed letter cover, as does the CD (mini-LP version that I own). I've seen other LP versions with a smooth cover, but I'm not sure how legitimate these are.
Seppo Paroni Paakkunainen – Plastic Maailma. 1971 Finland
Paakkunainen's debut features a typical all-over-the-map kitchen sink mentality. Eastern ragas, groovy hippy rock with cute female Finnish vocals, blues rock with tough male vocals (from Apollo lead singer), moody atmospheric jazz, soft religious revival music, heavy organ proto prog, Nosferatu-like guitar/flute rockers etc... Paakkunainen is the winds player and he provides some nice sax and flute leads. More focus would have lead to an even stronger album, as the production and playing are top notch.
Personal collection
CD: 2010 Rocket
A very rare album in original form, my first copy was a CD-R provided by a friend long ago. The Rocket CD solves the availability problem, and is fantastic, like all of their releases. All the liner notes are in Finnish, so we'd need a translation to fully benefit. While we were very fortunate to get those translations for Fantasia, Scapa Flow and Session, I didn't push my luck on this (lesser) title.

El Reloj - s/t (II). 1976 Argentina
Come to think of it - complex progressive hard rock, non-stop intensity and screaming vocals - perhaps we now know the true inspiration for Mars Volta (makes more sense than Led Zeppelin). Well... maybe?
A rather surprising sophomore entry from El Reloj, whose debut is much more straight ahead hard rock with blues touches. I personally think this is a great album - a near masterpiece.
Personal collection
CD: 1996 Record Runner (Brazil)
Both CD versions include both sides of a rare 1975 single. The original gatefold LP is awesome - love the weird dude in a weirder place. The LP was my first copy, and I also own the Record Runner CD which is very well done, as are all their reissues.
Apoteosi - s/t. 1975 Italy
Apoteosi is classic turn-on-a-dime Italian progressive rock in the Semiramis / Jumbo tradition with Jenny Sorrenti / Saint Just like vocals. Hard to dislike this one if a fan of the genre. Finishes with a space rock number straight from the Sensations' Fix playbook. Finding this private press must have been nirvana for collectors worldwide back in the day. Thank goodness for the Mellow CD, so the rest of us could hear it too! Brilliant really.
Personal collection
CD: 1993 Mellow
An extremely rare album, where original copies have sold for over $2000. Like many, I had never even heard of this album until Mauro released it in 1993.
Patrick Forgas - Cocktail. 1977 France
Following this, Forgas piddled around with substandard releases, until he got serious again in 1998 with his Forgas Band Phenomena, a band that continues today and is one of the leading lights of progressive music. Great to see the old dogs showing the new pups a few things.
Personal collection
CD: 2008 Musea
The original single sleeve cover has always been relatively easy to find. Gratte-Ciel (Skyscraper) was a subsidiary of RCA, who it appears at the time was completely behind the French progressive rock movement. They had other progressive rock specialist labels, such as Arcane/Crypto. The Musea CD adds no less than 13 relevant bonus tracks, making this the de facto release of the album.
Grobschnitt – Die Grobschnitt 0. 1971 Germany (archival)
....However there is close to 30 minutes of unique material here, starting with track 6 'About My Town' (8:56), a very fine jazz inflicted progressive rock number with plenty of those great Lupo guitar solos. 'Fallstone' (5:25) follows with Eroc's martial drumming leading the way while Wildschwein shreds away on rhythm guitar and Lupo once again comes in with some fine solos. Disc 2 opens with 'Das D-Lied' (4:03) and 'Das Teelied' (3:15) both splendid little psychedelic blues rock numbers in the Krautrock tradition. 'Die Maschine' (7:49) is perhaps the best of them all, starting out with power chords like early Black Sabbath. But at the point where you would expect Iommi to start riffing, the band goes into jazzy jamming mode and Lupo unleashes some great wah-wah solos. These 5 tracks alone would have made for a great archival album, so having the bonus of the entire first album in raw form is just icing on the cake. The album closes with a live version of 'Das D-Lied' (4:33) and the final track, on the surface at least, looks like a real boon for collectors: A 31 minute live version of 'Die Sinfonie'. However this is the same bonus track as found on the 1998 Repertoire CD, so if you have that already, then nothing new here. All in all, a fantastic historical document from one of Germany's finest progressive rock bands of the 70s.
Personal collection
CD: 2010 Made in Germany
Made in Germany is the next venture from a former SPV executive. The quality of the physical product is impressive, and is first class all the way. Features include a tri-fold digipak holding 2 CDs and extensive liner notes from Eroc himself.
Cai - Mas Allá de Nuestras Mentes Diminutas. 1978 Spain
Personal collection
LP: 1987 Soviso
The 1987 release is an exact replica of the 1978 original gatefold. Though pressed in Spain, it was primarily made for the Japanese market. And that's exactly where my copy came from - a Japanese dealer in the late 1980s. A local friend has the Lacochu original and there are scant differences between them.
The CD, by all accounts (and there are many), is a very poor vinyl transfer and thus I've avoided buying one. Not sure why more care wasn't applied - my vinyl reissue sounds perfect! Even if the masters were lost, most assuredly someone else in Spain has one of these mint LPs from 1987 like myself. The reissue is a 2 CD set released by one of the members of the band and he added his own solo music for disc 2. Because it is legit, I don't have it featured on the CDRWL, but here's my plea for a better CD! Maybe the Japanese dealers can convince them to try for a mini-LP version, similar to what they did in 1987? It would be a great candidate for a mini-LP in any case since the gatefold cover is indeed striking.
Group 1850 – Agemo's Trip to Mother Earth. 1968 Netherlands
Clearly a parallel group to Pink Floyd, Agemo's Trip to Mother Earth is taken from the same cloth as Saucerful of Secrets. In retrospect though, Group 1850's work is more creative - which one may expect from a Continental band without any commercial restraints. Sure, there are some pure psychedelic moments to be had - but just hearing the title track (technically titled 'I Put My Hands on Your Shoulder') should put anyone in awe who can hear this from an historical perspective. There just flat out wasn't anything like this in 1968 . The fuzz guitar, the trippy voices, the acid induced phased effects, and the drumming (oh my - the drumming). It's a true masterpiece in the field of psychedelic progressive music.
Personal collection
CD: 1997 Pseudonym
LP: 1999 Pseudonym
Group 1850's debut was groundbreaking in many ways, including the original LP cover: A fantastic gatefold with a 3-D cover complete with glasses! The original Dutch pressing is the only one that was 3-D whereas the original UK press (also on Philips) had a focused picture which has a blue hue to it. Because the original cover appears fuzzy, I chose the UK LP cover (above) for this entry.
My first copy of this album was the rather shoddy SPM release which has little to offer. But 1997's Pseudonym CD is like the LP, and it also comes with a 3-D cover and features a whopping 13 bonus tracks. Group 1850's 45's were just as "out there" as their LP tracks, so these bonus songs are enlightening. Two years later, Pseudonym went forward with an exact LP replica. They did such a good job, I haven't felt it necessary to fork over for an original, even though this is a favorite album. The LP does not have any bonus tracks however.
Franck Dervieux – Dimension M. 1972 Canada
Personal collection
LP: 1972 Columbia
CD: 2012 ProgQuebec
The original features a wonderful textured gatefold cover, and comes with a full 4 page insert. The CD features unique liner notes, photos and an English translation of the original insert. It is transferred from vinyl, but they did their best to maintain the integrity of the original sound. This has been a much anticipated reissue, and many are glad to see it's finally surfaced.

16 April 2015
It's almost bikini season which means there's only one thing on every woman's mind – hair removal. You may have always stuck by your trusty razor or hair removal cream, but have you ever considered having Laser Hair Removal? Not only is this hair removal method less time consuming, it's also really effective.
So how does it work? The laser is targeted at the pigment in each hair follicle, killing unwanted hair at the root. You'll generally require a minimum of six sessions. Sounds simple, right? So why do you need so many sessions? It's because hair has various growth stages, which explains why you may see a few hairs sprouting up randomly after your first session of Laser Hair Removal. Several sessions of treatment ensures that all unwanted hair is effectively targeted.
Laser Hair Removal is suitable for a large range of hair and skin types, including blond, grey and fine hair - it's always best to have an initial consultation with a specialist first though so they can advise you on the results you can expect.
Many women assume Laser Hair Removal must be painful. It may sound like it, but in actual fact, the majority of patients describe the pain as a 'rubber band snapping' sensation – worth knowing if you're thinking about having a large area of hair treated.
Have you undergone Laser Hair Removal? What advice would you give to others? Let us know on Twitter.

These EMR and Healthcare IT related articles have been viewed over 16 million times. John also manages Healthcare IT Central and Healthcare IT Today, the leading career Health IT job board and blog. John is co-founder of InfluentialNetworks.com and Physia.com. John is highly involved in social media, and in addition to his blogs can also be found on Twitter: @techguy and @ehrandhit and LinkedIn.
On more than one occasion I've talked with people about the work the people at MModal are doing in the healthcare IT space. I think they're a really interesting technology that could save all those doctors that want to still dictate their notes. MModal offers an interesting solution for preserving the valuable story that a narrative tells while also pulling out the key data elements into granular, reportable pieces.
I don't think I need to say much more about MModal. Just watch this video interview I did with them at HIMSS 10:

Xbox/PC Preview - 'Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth'
by Thomas Wilde on May 25, 2005 @ 3:21 a.m. PDT
Call of Cthulhu is a psychological survival/horror game based on H.P. Lovecraft's disturbing universe. Featuring a blend of action, mystery and adventure, Call of Cthulhu puts the player in the shoes of Private Eye Jack Walters, an investigator looking into the dark mysteries of the town of Innsmouth. With a first-person gameplay perspective, the game pulls the player into Lovecraft's nightmarish world of demons, demi-gods and ghouls.
