Happy First Day Of Fall YA'LL!! I truly feel in my element today! It is cool and a smidge dreary and I have the patio door open (with the screen closed of course.. we don't want any escaped cat named sam lol). I got to sleep through the night as did david so.. good spirits all around. Yesterday my mom had went to goodwill and said she saw tons of appalachian shirts, but she didn't think they would fit so of course she didn't get them. When David got home from work we went to check it out. I only managed to find one..and it is a little tight because of it being one of those hanes shirts (for some reason I always find their shirts to be really tight no matter what size) However, I managed to find 3 T-Shirts that were from our church, 2 hollister shirts and a DG purse! There was another purse I had meant to look at again before we left but David was hurrying me along a bit because he was hungry so I didn't even get all the looking I wanted done lol. Funny thing from yesterday was … [Read more...]

this post took a turn ..but hai there!
Hey Everyone! Well between David having Nausea and Dry Heeves adjusting to this medicine, and still having a panic attack (this morning around 2 a/m) We did manage two or three nights where we pretty much both got to sleep through the night! However, neither one of us have managed to get what you would call "caught up" just yet. For me sleeping in the day is about nearly impossible since they have been painting and piddling on our building here for like 3+ weeks! I will get all caught up and back to whatever normal is sooner than later I hope. These meds he is taking for anxiety are supposed to take 2 weeks to start taking a minimal affect and then a month for the full thing... They did give him meds in case he has a major panic attack between now and then but they aren't something you really want to have to take unless you have to, especially with him having to work in Heavy Equipment. Today I have felt pretty alright and I have been trying to do some follow ups on different … [Read more...]

I'm still here- back from TN and all that good stuff
Hey Everyone I just wanted to take a quick minute and write up a post ..I kind of got stuck after the BE writing challenge day 13 and didn't continue on (thought i would get around to it in time) and I haven't really had the urge to blog the last little bit even though I need to and I have tons of things that need to go up!I hope to back track and move forward with them if I get a minute to do so! TN was fun and I am planning to do a recap post and of course reviews for Sunoco, Dixie Stampede and Wilderness at the smokies!

12/31 @thebesociety Sept Challenge -what would help you right now #besociety #beseptchallenge
Well,what an open ended question this is! The best way I can think to format this is to make it like a list I suppose lol inspiration? more energy? a hobby other than blogging? lol more money/paid blogging work (I think this whole year I have done ONE paid post. ONE) and I spent all of my savings to help us during the move of course! ideas for meals for dinner? relaxation time time to be with extended family Those were just off the top of my head ... So I think I did pretty well. I guess you can always used something right? I really wish I could find a hobby to occupy me other than blogging to help mix it up. Really the only thing I have that I used to do back in the day is reading- which is totally fine but I mean- something else to help mix up my life would be awesome. Might have to do that darn volunteering they keep nagging about at church lol … [Read more...]

I was in 12th grade and as well as I can remember it started around the time we were at the end of first period switching classes to go to 2nd but some people were already talking about it depending on what class /who their teacher was because they had been watching T. V. in their class. I was in math so that def. wasn't us! I know we watched it on T.V. for the rest of the day but I don't know for sure that I saw anything "Live". With the way our class changes worked out, I am almost positive that I didn't! We watched it pretty much all day on t.v at school and I don't really remember much else I know my mom was at the dentist when it happened, and I am almost positive that we got out of school a bit early that afternoon. I remember watching it all over the news pretty much 24/7 for weeks though. I know that right around that time we had 2 deaths … [Read more...]

The United Kingdom is fortunate enough to have a fantastic cultural and ethnic diversity when it comes to weddings. As a result, The English Toastmaster is often called upon to officiate as a master of ceremonies at many different types of weddings. Whether it is a 'traditional' English country wedding, the vibrancy of an Indian or Asian wedding, such as Sikh, Hindu, Muslim or Arabic, or the excitement of a party following a Jewish wedding, there is room for a toastmaster and all that the role entails in each. Of course, these cultures celebrate marriage in different ways and so Garry will observe and understand the various traditions in each.
"Setting The Scene" – Every wedding is unique and you will surely have many dreams and aspirations for the most perfect day – a day to remember. The English Toastmaster will be available for any advice and will meet with you prior to your wedding day, to assist in making these dreams become a reality. Discuss your schedule for the day with Garry to ensure the smooth running of events. Rely on his experience to take away the pressures.
"On Ceremony" – Whether it be a Church, Synagogue or Temple Wedding, Civil Ceremony or Partnership, The English Toastmaster will be delighted to attend and take care of the smallest details so you can arrive relaxed and in the knowledge that everything is under control.
"Tie The Knot" – Garry's friendly manner will calm any last minute nerves and provide reassurance. His attention to detail, knowledge of protocol, etiquette and tradition will be greatly appreciated – even down to tying cravats or ties and pinning on buttonholes.
"Nearest And Dearest" – Whilst the happiness of the bride and bridegroom is paramount, Garry will be pleased to keep your guests informed of the order of the day in a relaxed manner. They will have been invited to share in your celebration because they are special and you will want them to remember the day with fondness too.
"Make It Snappy" – Allow Garry to liaise with your photographer and videographer to help capture the best visual memories of your day. Pass on your 'photograph wish list' ensure that the right guests are in place with the least amount of fuss, ensuring a smooth process and guaranteeing you a wonderful keepsake to treasure forever.
"Let's Eat" – As your wedding breakfast is in progress, be sure to know that The English Toastmaster has everything in hand – keeping the timings on track and looking after you and your guests at all times.
"Cheers!" – Raising your glass to toast all those special people who have been part of your day can be never-ending. Garry will add that 'formality' by announcing speeches and toasts in your chosen sequence and he is happy to offer advice on speeches prior to the day.
"Whoosh" – The 'Art of Sabrage' is something to wow and surprise your guests with and is particularly great just before the wedding cake is cut. It entails removing the cork from a Champagne bottle with a ceremonial sabre. Garry will be excited to share this skill with you on your day.
"Piece Of Cake" – It is usually tradition to cut the wedding cake during the reception. Why not make it more of a ceremony and extra special by having Garry make the announcement at your chosen time? You could even use the Sabre to make the first cut – what style!
"Let the Party Begin" – 'The First Dance' usually signals the commencement of the evening party and the end of the day's formalities. Garry will be happy to announce your first dance together.

The stories are not in popular history books, they almost never get mentioned on sportscasts and their role in the roots of the Civil Rights movement hardly are touched.
But Friday, some West Point students got rare insight into some of America's greatest baseball players, the Negro Leagues and how some of those players paved the way for sports today.
Baseball historian and fan Glenn Lautzenhiser wove the history of the leagues and some players, including the likes of "Cool Papa" Bell from Starkville, into personal advice for today's students.
As part of an art project related to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., West Point High art teacher Sabrina Campbell had Lautzenhiser, who served on the Columbus school board for 25 years, speak to two of her classes, some members of the West Point High baseball team and some history students. Lautzenhiser brought some of his extensive memorabilia collection with him to share with the students.
West Point Schools Superintendent Burnell McDonald and other administrators sat in on part of the presentations, which included a gift from the art department of a portrait of Lautzenhiser.
Among other things, he shared the stories of whites who played a vital role in helping Jackie Robinson break the color barrier in Major League Baseball in 1947 by standing up against racism, including Brooklyn Dodgers shortstop Peewee Reese and famed broadcaster "Red" Barber, who grew up in Columbus.
He also used the story of Willie Mays, who played in the Negro Leagues before getting to the majors, as an example of having confidence and not giving up.
When Mays first came to the majors, he failed to get a hit in his first 13 at bats and went to his manager, Leo Durocher, asking to be sent back to the minors. Durocher assured Mays he was the team's centerfielder for the rest of the year and in his next at-bat, Mays hit a home run off Warren Spahn, one of the greatest pitchers of all time.
"It's about believing in yourself, that's something that we can use everyday," Lautzenhiser told the students.
"It was not easy for these men, the Negro League players to do the things they did. They faced unbelievable harsh treatment and challenges. It's just an example of you never lose unless you quit," he continued, revealing to the audience that shin guards, the hit-and-run bunt, and night games all originated in the Negro Leagues,
In fact, the Kansas City Monarchs had a mobile light system the team took with it so it could play night games and attract more fans.
"They could make more money," he said, noting the biggest change to the game in the last 70 years is the amount of money paid players and for memorabilia.
For students, it was a window on a part of sports and history they knew nothing about.
"I was surprised by it all. I had no idea," said West Point student Goia Robinson.
"It's amazing to learn about all the things these players went through and what they did," added Carson Taylor.

Both the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) and the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) exams are used to assess the level of English language proficiency of applicants to universities and colleges in predominantly English-speaking countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom. They are also used to assess English speaking ability by institutions such as government agencies, licensing bodies, businesses and scholarship programs.
Difference in Format
The overall format of the tests is quite different, so knowing what type of learner and test taker you are will help you decide which test to take. The TOEFL is offered on paper and online -- the TOEFL iBT -- while the IELTS is paper based only. Both the TOEFL and the IELTS have four sections: reading, writing, speaking and listening. The IELTS takes two hours and 45 minutes, while the TOEFL is closer to four-and-a-half hours. The TOEFL offers multiple-choice questions on the reading and listening components of the test, while the IELTS is all based on recall, with open-ended questions. So the TOEFL may be better for abstract learners who need a prompt to recall stored information. Another difference in format is in the speaking section: IELTS test-takers speak face to face to a native English speaker while the TOEFL requires testers to answer six questions that you record into a microphone.
With the IELTS, you can choose from two options to take: the general and the academic. These have different reading and writing sections, highlighting a slightly different skill set for each environment.
Difference in Scoring and Administration
The scoring system between the two tests is quite different, with IELTS rating between 0 and 9, with halfway points in between. The average scores are in the 5- and 6-point range. TOEFL totals your scores from all the areas, with each worth up to 30 points. A good score is above 100.
This gives an insight into another key difference: who administers each test. TOEFL is administered by the Educational Testing Service, a nonprofit US-based organization, and conducts its test according to U.S. English. IELTS is administered jointly by the British Council, the University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations and IDP Education Australia, and conducts its test in U.K. English. While the differences are not very great, accents and spelling variations can cause slight problems for some students.
Who Accepts Which Test?
More than 8,500 colleges, agencies and other institutions in over 130 countries accept TOEFL scores. To see which if the institution you are interested in will accept your score, check here: http://www.ets.org/toefl/ibt/about/who_accepts_ scores. IELTS is accepted by more than 8,000 organizations worldwide in 135 countries at over 800 test centers. The cost of the TOEFL can range from $160 to $250, varying depending on the location of the test center, while the IELTS is $205 in the U.S. and slightly more or less in other countries.
Which Is Better for You?
Ostensibly, both tests measure the same thing: your ability to read, write, understand and speak the English language well enough to succeed in an academic or business setting in which English is spoken. However, which test you choose ultimately depends on where you will be using these skills. If the institution requiring your English proficiency is in the U.S. or former U.S. colonies, it's probably best to take the TOEFL, while in the U.K., Australia or other countries that use British English, the IELTS is recommended. If this factor isn't important, choose the test that is best for your learning capabilities and comfort level, depending on your preference for a longer, multiple-choice test or a shorter test that requires more memory recall.

So, I make no secret of the fact that I am an online shopping addict. Recently I've lost a bit of weight, so have stepped up my shopping efforts 🙂 ASOS, City Chic, Dorothy Perkins, New Look, Autograph, Virtu and eBay are my usual online haunts… But that just isn't cutting it at the moment.
I stick to Australian and UK online retailers due to the reasonable postage costs. But what's on offer in the US is so fabulous, I lust on the websites and save my pennies for orders. I have done the occasional order from Torrid and GAP/Old Navy in the past, but I had never ordered from Forever 21 before – and it's always a gamble with sizing first time you order, and at $60 for postage – an expensive gamble at that!
Item 1
Lets start with the whole reason for the order – the sequin Bronze dress… Cap sleeves, body con, exposed zipper, and most importantly… Sparkle sparkle sparkle! And at $35, even if you add the whole $60 for postage of the entire package of clothes – it's a bargain and there's just nothing like available in Australia.
Size Ordered: 1X
Price: $35
Quality: So, I'm quite impressed with the quality, thick fabric, great sequin coverage and they are secured decently. Not outstanding – but what do you expect for that price?!
Sizing: this is a body con dress which is totally out of my comfort zone. Currently I wear a size S or XS in City Chic, a 20 in straight sizes (think Target). My new City Chic Work pants are a 16, but they only just (just just) fit at the waist. I ordered this dress in a 1x. Honestly, I took a stab at sizing. I still have a bit more weight to loose, so it fits, and my look decent with some spanx, but I'd probably like to be a definite City Chic XS (straight store 18) before I comfortably wore it out in public. Which is perfect as I have a friends wedding in April and I think it would be awesome… So, size verdict for me: Forever 21 1x = City Chic XS ( but if you are not a great big pear like me, it may be a CC small)…
Overall: Stoked!
Item 2
Next up, the item which made me sure I HAD to put my order through – Geo print pleat skirt. Totally 70s feel and colour.
Size Ordered: 1X
Price: $23
Quality: Overall happy, little scratchy, good quality pleats which are tight at the top, and relaxed at the edge. Skirt is fully lined, good quality waist band. Side zipper.
Sizing: I ordered a 1x. I would say it is equivalent to a CC16 or straight size 20.
Overall: with the skirt – so very happy. When I pulled it out of the box at my office, it got oooohhss and aaahhhss from my colleagues. I'm still a little unsure how I will style this number… Stay tuned for when I figure it out 🙂
Item 3
The Metallic Knit Blazer was an impulse inclusion as it was on super sale. Only $12 for this Blazer, no collar. On the website it looked a lot more muted, bit it's definitely GOLD.
Size Ordered: 1X
Price: $15
Quality: Lined, a little scratchy. I think it will pull easily. Can't complain for $15
Size: fits well now and easily does up. Ordered a 1X but I would say its the equivalent of a CC Small jacket – plenty of room in the arms, which is a nice surprise.
Overall: It was an impulse buy – I have no idea where, or how I would wear this… It's much more gold than the online photos.
Item 4
Ok, so there were more purchases, but we will stop here for now with the Spiked Shoulder Ombré Jumper.
Size Ordered: 1X
Price: $23
Quality: Love
Size: Love. This jumper is oversized, I ordered a 1x and would fit a CC small.
Overall: Love Love Love, totally fierce and could not be happier.
So, one very happy online shopper here 🙂 with a whole lot of new clothes 🙂

The Regenerated Freirean
Literacy through Empowering Community Technique Approach as an
Educational Alternative for Functional Literacy and Solution to Community
by Ouédraogo Germaine Ouedrago, Executive Secretary of APENF, Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
"Education For All" (EFA) is a pledge Burkina Faso
made to address educational issues, following the recommendations of World
Conference on Education in Jomtien (Thailand) in March 1990. This pledge is in
line with the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which advocate the creation
of an environment conducive for development and poverty eradication. Education
is central to the achievement of these goals (Kam, et. al, 2010). However, the
effectiveness of such commitments require the reversal of deficits such as
access, quality, relevance and steerage in the in the educational
system. The scenarios that were developed after the general assessment of
education in 1994, for example, the implementation of the Ten Year Plan for the
Development of Primary Education (PDDEB) have attempted to overcome the central
factors that hinder the promotion of good the educational system (PDDEB, 2001).
The State and civil society have collaborated to make
significant improvement towards the achievements of goals in the non-formal
educational sector. The non-formal
sub-system is defined to include all activities of education, structured and
organized training in the non-school context such as literacy, training and
development of a literate environment (Education Guidance Law of Burkina Faso,
2007). A national strategy called "make-do strategy" that spells out
the role of each actor has allowed them to work according their abilities and
skills in the joint effort to achieve the goals of education. The civil society
have thus been given the opportunity to participate in evaluation of the
effectiveness and efficiency of educational processes and right to education
for all and mobilization of resources
from the communities (Kam, Some, Zabsonre, & Ouedraogo, 2010).
Despite the efforts made by the State, the educational
system indicators especially those of the non-formal sub-system, remain low.
For example, as low as 28.4% literacy rate was observed in 2006. The promotion
of the REFLECT literacy approach is among the efforts to contribute to the search
for quality non-formal educational delivery. REFLECT is an English acronym for:
"Regenerated Freirean
Literacy through Empowering Community Techniques", which is translated
into French as Alphabétisation
Freirienne Régénérée à travers les Techniques de Renforcement des Capacités et
Pouvoirs Communautaires. (Pamoja-Afrique on www.pamoja-west-africa.org).
REFLECT is a training approach that empowers learners to
develop entrepreneurial and team spirit to solve their problems. REFLECT
is practiced on a transnational scale and remains one of the few non-formal
educational approaches that link several people in Francophone, Hispanic,
Lusophone and Anglophone African countries and others in different parts of the
world. A platform for dialogue and advocacy called Pamoja has been created
at the continental level (Pamoja Africa) to connect national networks including
Pamoja-Burkina (Pamoja Africa Reports, 2006).
This case study attempts to highlight the most valuable
aspects of the REFLECT approach as promoted in Burkina Faso. It is an approach
that facilitates development of life skills useful for transforming literacy
into a sustainable development tool.
In Burkina, the introduction of REFLECT began in 1998
through the presentation of the approach to the Association of the Promotion of
Non-Formal Education (APENF) by ACTION AID. APENF opened nine (9)
experimental centers in three languages (Moore,
Jula, Fulfulde) with technical and financial support from Literacy/Training
Program of Swiss Cooperation in Burkina in 2001. Of the 290 people that
benefited from the training, 60% were women. The demand for establishment
of more REFLECTS is growing rapidly due to the positive results achieved on the
field (Study Report on the AENF formulas and practices, 2008).
REFLECT centers are financed by the Fund for Literacy and
Non Formal Education (FONAENF), which is a national non-formal fund in Burkina
since the 2008 campaign. In 2009, the number of centers reached 1085
including 872 centers that were funded by the FONAENF and 213 managed by the
APENF with support from the Swiss Cooperation. Currently, about 1,500
REFLECT literacy centers are created per year which is serving at least 45,000
people, of which; more than the half are women (MENA Report, 2011). The growing demand for REFLECT centers exceeds the current
capacity. This demonstrates the relevance of the approach in encouraging
the real empowerment of the learner.
The REFLECT approach was introduced to address the concerns
of the prospective clients of literacy programs. These were frustrated by the
inadequacy of the formal, public educational system, that focus on repetition
of information that is not responsive to the expectations of prospective
clients as citizens and actors of their own development (Faundez, and
Mugrab, 2004).In fact, learners of literacy centers remarked that learning was
very theoretical, focusing on learning codes and not on relevant topics that
meet their specific needs. Also, supports to vocational training were
inaccessible and inadequate. Learners were interested in literacy and
aimed to acquire skills to increase productivity, solidarity and reinvesting of
experiences back to the community to solve problems in the community through exchange
of experience and motivation.
The REFLECT approach is perceived as an innovative and
responsive approach, which:
places the learner in the center of his/her
learning process and enables him/her to develop his/her potential
skills. Unlike formal education system, the teaching/learning is done in
the local language to facilitate access for the majority of learners;
discusses community concerns using the Accelerated Method for Participatory
Research (MARP) tool such as the discussion tree, the preferential classification
methods, diagrams, planning and implementation of solutions and experiences at
individual, family and community levels. Learners are organized into small
groups to monitor the achievements at all levels. Observations, checklists
or interview guides are used to collect data to provide feedback during the
exchange meetings with communities; and
creates and develops mutual solidarity among
members of a community to preserve their interests and assert their rights.
The REFLECT approach is based on a solid but basic
diagnostic process that allows learners at each center to identify the major
problems from their own perspective, analyse, priotise and plan the
implementation of solutions to identified problems. After that a training
program called "Study Plan" is developed. The study plan is a reference
document that provides all the topics to be addressed, the activities to be
performed by the learner and facilitator of the center, the appropriate
equipment to be used and task to be evaluated. The study plan is specific to
each center because it takes the needs of the community into account.
The problems that learners and communities are not able to
solve are developed into a planning contract called "Ideas for Action". Ideas
for action contain commitments and detail information for further consideration
and solution. The information contained in" Ideas for Action" are transformed
into development projects. Monitoring committees are formed to source for
funding to implement the projects. These reinvestments and commitments of
learners and communities enable them to solve their problems.
The REFLECT approach allows communities to initiate a
dialogue on major challenges affecting them which eventually will lead to
finding of solutions that will improve on the livelihood of the population. The
development of capabilities to read, write, count and address socio-cultural
and environment challenges start with the teaching/learning process that focus
on the needs of communities.
The implementation of literacy programs using the REFLECT
approach is not immune to organizational and pedagogical challenges. Among
the challenges confronting effective implementation of REFLECT are:
Inadequate training of the facilitators of the
centers due to the rudimentary nature and short duration of preparation for the
training. The ability of these actors to truly serve as facilitators is limited
and often hampered. The training curricula are often weak and sessions are
sometimes poorly implemented. Ultimately, the concerns of communities are not
being fully taken into consideration. The ongoing functional training
infrastructure established are expected to address the above mentioned
Lack of ideas for actions. Indeed, in the
absence of ideas for actions, REFLECT cannot claim to be an enabling and a
dynamic method.
Lack of funds to implement identified ideas for
action means that projects capable of generating substantial resources could
not be implemented.
The main factors of success of a REFLECT programs are:
The teaching / learning (study plan) programs
are built out of the needs of beneficiaries. The development of problem
diagnosis before learning enables actors to adapt the topic to the real
concerns of beneficiaries. This makes learning more motivating, participatory
and empowering ;
There is active participation of learners in
teaching/learning process. The learner is the key player for his/her own
learning process. This is in line with suggestion expressed by Pauli Freire in
his book titled 'the pedagogy of the oppressed' to make the learner the focus
of learning (Freire, 1983) ;
Learning in the first year is achieved without
the spelling-book. This eliminates memorization by the learners since
memorization does not necessarily mean mastery or control of subject;
The participatory tools such as of the Active Method of
Participative Research (MARP) and Gender and Development (GED) encourages
participation and ownership of the knowledge acquired by learners;
The learning process links theory to practice.
This facilitates the acquisition of skills by the beneficiaries to use
instruments to achieve technical efficiency;
The Active participation of the community in the
teaching/learning process builds a relationship between the center and village
to discuss socio-economic and cultural issues in the community;
Combination of development and
literacy. This is possible through the reinvestment of learning
(knowledge, know-how) including the implementation of ideas for action,
technical training and development of local dynamics ;
The development of a literate environment
contributes to the sustainability of the teaching / learning achievements;
The actors responsible for monitoring and
evaluation and trainers are retrained continuously.
The MARP and GED tools could be used by training
institutions to conduct an in-depth basic diagnosis ;
The involvement of beneficiaries in the learning
process facilitates the adherence of the beneficiaries in the process, active
participation, and community empowerment ;
The development of the teaching / learning
topics (study plan) taking needs of the beneficiaries into account will lead to
quality teaching ;
Combination of
literacy training with development to facilitates the application of
acquired experiences, and the development of the socio-economic and local
dynamics (Niameogo, 1998);
The theory and practice should be aligned in the
teaching/learning process to promote the ownership of knowledge;
Develop a literate environment (production of training materials by
learners, which can be communicated to a larger audience) to contribute to the
sustainability of learning experiences ;
Investment in continuous retraining of
facilitators and trainers can enhance the quality of teaching/learning.
The REFLECT approach has become one of the most important
educational alternatives used in non-formal education in Burkina. It takes
into account the community concerns and facilitates the production of results
for the communities to master the technical and instrumental knowledge to
develop skills for their socio-economic development.

Whatcha talkin bout Willis?
According to Crain's Chicago Business, the Sears Tower, Chicago's iconic skyscraper, is to be renamed Willis Tower. The London-based insurance firm Willis Group Holdings will take about 140,000 square feet in the tower starting this summer and got the naming rights thrown in for free.
While the name stuck, Sears hasn't leased space in the building since the 1990s when it moved its headquarters to the suburbs. The building suffered a tenant drain after 9/11 as security measures increased. More recently several anchors announced plans to vacate major blocks of space in the building for new projects around town, making the renaming less surprising.
The only thing certain is change.

Lake Escondido
Lago Escondido, which translates to Hidden Lake, is surrounded by the Fuegian Andes just north of Ushuaia, Argentina. Many tourists choose to visit on a day-trip from Ushuaia; however, Hosteria Petral provides a lakeside basecamp for anybody interested in taking advantage of its status as a popular sport-fishing destination.
Brown and Rainbow trout can be caught in the lake itself, while brook trout are most often landed near stream inlets or around the many beaver dams that surround the lake.
Other popular activities in the area include horseback riding along the lakeshore, boat and kayak tours on the crystal-clear waters, and, oddly, Canadian-style wildlife watching. Lago Escondido is an excellent place to watch Canadian beavers, which were introduced to southern Patagonia in 1946 with false hope to spur a declining fur trade.

(MRGE) Merge Healthcare Gets New Australian Deal
Imaging and interoperability solutions provider, Merge Healthcare (MRGE) announced another addition to its ever-increasing client list with the latest deal with Datapharm Australia Pty Ltd., an Australian Contract Research Organization (CRO) that provides full-service drug development services. Per the deal, Datapharm Australia will deploy Merge's eClinical OS that provides an end-to-end study support for in house electronic data capture (EDC) with control on electronic case report form (eCRF) creation and mid-study changes. However, financial settlements of the contract were not disclosed.
Datapharm Australia started an EDC vendor evaluation in 2010 involving 14 vendors who could offer in-licensing of software for technology transfer. The evaluation criteria included full set of EDC tools, time and costs associated with technology transfer. The company gradually understood the need of EDC in a growing number of client studies. Thus, it started outsourcing EDC projects to a third party vendor to handle the eCRF setup. However, on facing several drawbacks related to outsourcing, the company shifted to eClinical OS which has several EDC features.
Healthcare-IT Industry – Current Scenario
Currently, imaging in laboratories accounts for over 90% of data storage in healthcare. As per the estimates of the global market research and information analysis company RNCO, the U.S. healthcare IT market is anticipated to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 24% during 2012-2014.
This market will gradually adopt electronic health records (EHRs) to meet HITECH funding requirements. Merge is expected to target this market given its imaging interoperability platform.
According to Frost and Sullivan and Merge's 2011 internal research report, the global market for imaging software and services, healthcare IT interoperability solutions and electronic health records (EHR) solutions for radiology, cardiology, ophthalmology and orthopedics is worth $7.5 billion annually.
With greater adoption of EHRs in doctor's offices, hospitals and imaging centers, the need for data exchange is on the rise. Against this backdrop, a reliable imaging interoperability platform becomes significant as a vendor-neutral archive (VNA).
During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, Merge was acknowledged by InMedica, a division of IMS Research as the global market leader in VNA Solutions. Data from InMedica's study revealed that in 2011, Merge's iConnect VNA customers accounted for 37% of all studies archived in VNAs worldwide. InMedica predicts that the market for VNA solutions will grow from 75 million studies in 2011 to 570 million studies by 2016, a CAGR of 49.9%.
The overall U.S. health IT (HIT) market witnessed a dramatic change in February 2009 with the passing of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act, which was included as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), an economic stimulus bill.
In August 2012, the final regulations for the second stage of the 'Meaningful Use' incentive program for EHRs were released, along with the final rule on the certification of EHR technology. As per this final mandate, the 2009 ARRA, which authorized the $27 billion program, requires providers to use certified EHRs in order to earn bonus payments from Medicare, Medicaid or both, for 'Meaningful Use'. Implementation of the final stage 2 ruling will begin in 2014.
The stimulus aims to increase the use of EHR by medical practitioners, in both ambulatory and hospital-based settings. As a result, selected companies in this space, including Merge, are witnessing improved and positive investors' interest. Favorable demographic trends, reinforced by a supportive regulatory environment, are expected to sustain strong growth in demand for EHR-related software in the foreseeable future.
This will benefit Merge in the long run. It is believed that the company is well placed to capture a meaningful share of the multi-billion dollar ARRA-related healthcare information technology investment opportunity.
However, we remain concerned about the declining Medicare reimbursement for advanced medical imaging that could negatively affect hospital and imaging clinic revenues, thereby reducing the demand for the imaging-related software and services offered by Merge. Furthermore, the presence of many big players like McKesson Corporation (MCK) has made the healthcare solutions and services market highly competitive.
Presently, Merge retains a short-term Zacks #3 Rank (Hold). Over the long term, we have a Neutral recommendation on the stock.

I don't know why it soothes me so
when the mail comes,
the sound of the metal door swinging open
then closing—satisfying—shut.
The post's arrival marks mid-afternoon,
a quarter-note in the cadence of slow days.
I try to shed pajamas
and get the babies bathed by eleven
most mornings.
The mail-woman—she's in her late sixties, I think,
dangles a cigarette from her mouth—
for months I thought it was a lollipop.
Now I know it's newly lit—she must start to smoke at the box or two before,
16437 or 16345.
When there's a package too big for our box
she lays on the horn,
hoping I'll emerge so she won't have to climb out of her truck
and clomp up the steps to the front porch,
but I duck behind the living room curtain.
Mostly she brings bills and flyers and coupon packs
for gutter cleaning, plumbers, Chinese lunch buffets,
yet their arrival tells me there's a workaday world
still spinning,
with people showered and dressed early and getting and spending.
Once upon another time,
me with my master's degree and pantyhose, hot coffee in a steel travel mug,
we were going places,
we were somebody.
A long while from now—but not so long, really—the box
will be stuffed with college come-ons
from Tech and perhaps even Vandy or Duke,
they'll court my girls—I can see already how bright they are.
I set the mail on the counter for my better half,
he'll sift through it later,
standing in his tie
while I stir what's on the stove,
the hair around my face curling from the steam.

There's a lot of cycling vloggers out there, but just recently one stood out to me as a great new one to follower. "The Average Cyclist" is a new channel by a gentleman named Matt who has stated that he wants to create videos that are aimed at the masses of average cyclists out there (like me).
I find the concept very interesting as there are a lot of vloggers that focus on points that are irrelevant to many, such drafting techniques for club riding. There is definitely a place for such videos, but they're just not for me.
Matt's channel appeals to me because he undertakes long term reviews of products. This is exactly the type of content I am trying to publish, but in written form as opposed to a video. For me, long term reviews mean much more than a quick review after receiving the product. The initial period of excitement that I get when I purchase a new product will have long gone, allowing me to write a fair review based on experience.
View "The Average Cyclist" channel on YouTube
My favourite video so far:
Supplements to improve your ride can get very expensive, so Matt's video on alternatives that do not cost a fortune is a refreshing watch. I encourage every new cyclist to watch it before getting carried away with supplements or cycling specific nutrition. There's definitely a place for it, but if you're looking to save money, it is definitely worth watching.

Café Also - CLOSED
Please note, Café Also has now closed. Time Out Food editors.
The Book of Leviticus – the third book of the Hebrew bible – is very particular about what the followers of Yahweh may and may not eat. Making sense of the kosher food laws has led theologians and anthropologists a merry dance for more than two millennia, but the result in contemporary London is that many people of Jewish heritage still observe the most basic rules: no pork, and no mixing of dairy and meat at the same meals.
Temple Fortune, north of Golders Green station, is a centre for both the Orthodox Jewish minority and a wider liberal community. Joseph's caters for the latter with both an excellent bookstore, and this new next-door restaurant. Both have a casual heimishe (homely) vibe, while the restaurant serves fish and dairy dishes of surprising sophistication.
Chef Ali Al-Sersy used to be chef-patron of Mims in Barnet. Before that, he trained under the Rouxs at Le Gavroche; Al-Sersy's techniques and dish presentation are informed by French cooking from the 1890s to the 1980s.
Ingredients are simple, the skill considerable. Home-smoked mackerel is served as a timbale-like tower of fish topped with pea shoots, with a drizzle of horseradish cream and a smear of mackerel pâté. Drizzles, blobs and leaf garnishes decorated every dish, including a quinoa and mushroom 'pudding' topped with long roots of roasted salsify and a sauce of parsnip cream. Sometimes the artistry is taken a little too far: a dish of roasted cauliflower had a charred floret as the centrepiece, but the accompanying cauliflower kofte – like spherical canapes on cocktail sticks – made the dish.
Café Also's cooking and welcome are pitched just right for the neighbourhood, but it's worth the schlep even for goyim (non-Jewish people) up Finchley Road from the tube station.

I was introduced to this charming North London cafe-restaurant by a good friend who suggested it would be the perfect place to celebrate my birthday - and she was right! It's so rare nowadays to find somewhere where you know you can sit, relax and enjoy good conversation (mercifully minus the customary din of muzak and surrounding talk that rebounds off the hard surfaces of most contemporary nosheries) - and then tuck into the most delicious food, one glorious course after another. All of the dishes were beautifully presented, but even better still, they tasted as good as they looked, featuring a host of interesting flavours and textures. That all of this was so reasonably priced was the proverbial frosting on the cake (though in our case, we shared a mouth-wateringly tangy and caramelly Tarte Tatin between all three of us). Needless to say, we left the premises satisfyingly full....and full of bonhomie. Highly recommended!
I've eaten here both at lunch and dinner a number of times and I'm never disappointed. This restaurant caters beautifully for the growing bunch of us who are now pescatarians ( or perhaps lapsed former vegetarians who still don't want to eat things with legs or wings). Its so good to have somewhere where nothing on the menu is out of bounds. Everything we've eaten whether vegetarian or fish has a modern twist - some unexpected take that makes it not just tasty but intriguing in a good way - fresh and layered with flavour. So we keep coming back and have noticed that others do too. There's also a great wine list and nothing is overpriced.

I finally decided to root my phone today
February 22, 2012
I am in the process of rooting my HTC EVO 4G. Having done this with my NOOKcolor, I'm somewhat familiar with the process. Until recently though, HTC had made it difficult to do so on many of their devices. There are always ways though; and HTC has, to their credit, allowed a bit more freedom for their device own to do things to the devices that they own.
I'm currently installing a ROM of Cyanogenmod 7 on my phone, which is the same as on my NOOKcolor. But I'm actually super interested in trying out some new ROMs of Android Ice Cream Sandwhich. I'll let you know how it goes. So far, so good though.

Our van, affectionately known as the BFG, started life as a IVECO Daily before being lovingly converted by her previous owners. We were very lucky to find her as she's got everything we need including a large raised bed, kitchen area, wardrobes, dining table and plenty of storage.
We've spent many a weekend tinkering to make sure she's set up just as we need, from building extra seating and adding yet more storage to making new curtains and repainting the interior.
She's our home for the next six months and we hope she'll be as good to us as we are to her!

Bodies sink deep into cushy massage tables as highly trained hands perform their therapeutic dance along the spine, customizing the treatment with modalities such as Swedish, deep tissue, or reiki. A bevy of gentle strokes glides smoothly along anatomical surfaces during 30 or 60 minutes of muscle kneading that leaves bodies divorced from tension and feeling as flexible as a freshly pulled batch of taffy.
As muscles slacken under the massage therapist's skillful mitts, Spring Studio's thoughtfully designed interior mollifies patrons' other senses. Full-spectrum lighting gleams off bamboo flooring, and continually circulated fresh air gives sinuses a break from filtering out smog and airborne sea monkeys.

Thursday Evening, home from Work and out on the Bicycle to make the most of the remaining daylight on a chilly but lovely sunny evening.
A gentle start up the Comber Greenway to Comber just to warm the legs up then lift the effort levels along the old Ballygowan road in to the Ballynichol road and climbing up the Drumhirk road. The legs were feeling good so I kept a decent effort up taking the Burn road and out on to the Moss road. The roads were quiet and the Evening light was getting better by the minute 🙂 the only Camera with me was a Phone Camera… never the best for anything more than a snapshot.
I turned in to the Tullynagee road to make my way to Comber and on up the hills to Scrabo hoping to get there before the golden light disappeared.
From Scrabo road overlooking Newtownards and Strangford Lough #stravaphoto #stravaproveit #cycling #roadcycling #outsideisfree #bikingrepost #roadslikethese #ridewithaview #fromwhereiride #alifebehindbars #northernireland #gorebikewear #intotheelements #stravacycling #discoverni #countydown #northernireland
Descending down from Scrabo and in to Newtownards then the long climb up past Kiltonga over Bradshaw's Brae and a descent down in to Dundonald in the dusk. A lovely evening for a Cycle but a chill in the air hinting at the approaching Winter and the long dark nights 🙁

When it comes to flirting, dating, sex and love, what do they really want? As if the world of dating wasn't confusing enough, every time you turn on the TV, read a magazine or hop online you get different advice.
Girls, should you play hard to get or shouldn't you? Is making the first move taking away the thrill of the chase? What do guys really think about paying for the first date and do you owe him one if you accept? Is it ok to have sex on the first date or will he see you as nothing but a booty call?
Guys, what are women really looking for in a guy, do looks really matter or is it the size of your wallet they're after? Do they really judge you based on your size or is it your experience that counts? How do you find your soulmate and receive the love and respect you deserve?
Global Study into the Dating & Mating Patterns of Singles
Inundated with questions from singles about flirting, dating, sex and love we decided to find out the truth about what men and women really want once and for all. To get real answers we went straight to the horse's mouth, conducting a global study into the dating and mating patterns of over 1500 men and women. The study consisted of online surveys, focus groups, seminars, interviews and field research (not to mention a little research of our own).
Real People - Real Answers: Surprising Results
The results even surprised us. Some of the responses left us speechless, others had us rolling in tears of laughter, and a few had us scratching our heads wondering how on earth men and women ever got together.
In this book you'll find real answers and real stories from real people. We'll blast open those old wives tales and myths and tell you the truth about what men and women and really want and the secrets they don't want you to know.
What will you gain?
Are we wetting your appetite? Want some more? Here's a taste of what's to come:
We'll tell you how to:
• Avoid the dating pitfalls
• Take their breath away without breaking your bank account
• Make yourself instantly more attractive to the opposite sex
• Decipher if they're flirting or just being friendly
• Tell if you're too much hard work or just too picky
• Be an instant hit, anywhere, anytime
• Meet sexy singles
• Conquer your fears, get over rejection and make your move
• Knock their socks off
• 150 ideas of where to go on a date

• Get them to say "yes" when she'd normally say no
• Make a fabulous impression on your first date
• Make them want you
• Heat things up in less than a minute
• Avoid the fifteen things that will kill a date
Salivating? That's just for starters. The best is yet to come.
We'll reveal:
• Their top 10 sexual turnoffs
• Their top 10 sexual turn-ons
• What they'd really want you to do to them in the bedroom
• What they'd like to do to you
• And how to get them coming back for more
Sound hot?
Read on, we've taken the guesswork out of getting the one you want. Because dating is a game best played with two. Like men and women, the two sides of this book compliment each other perfectly, so you need to read one side in conjunction with the other to have maximum impact on the opposite sex.
Bon Apetit!!
