Unum Insurance is the largest private disability insurance company in the US. Many people are comforted believing they will be protected if they become disabled and cannot continue working; their insurance company will step up, honor their claim and approve monthly benefits. Unfortunately, Unum claim denials are all too common, and disturbingly, there seems to be a pattern of unfair and improper business practices by Unum.
It is important to realize that Unum is a corporate giant with many affiliate insurance companies under different names, such as Provident Life, Paul Revere and the Colonial Companies. It is estimated that Unum is currently covering some 17 million Americans with some type of disability policy. If you have coverage or are currently a claimant, you should be aware of whom you are dealing with. Additionally, Unum's questionable reputation is not merely the product of disgruntled individuals who received Unum claim denials; Unum has been under investigation by state insurance investigators and the federal government and has lost several large legal decisions regarding the manner in which it handles claims, and is currently the subject of class action lawsuits regarding its handling of claims.
Altering Policies After the Filing of a Claim
As clearly illegal and unethical as changing the terms of a policy after it was issued, many people who have filed claims for disability benefits under a Unum policy have alleged just this. In fact, few policy holders read their policy and rely, often at their peril and to their disadvantage, on the insurer to inform them if their claim is covered under the policy language.
Improperly Investigating the Claim
When a Unum policyholder makes a claim for short term or long term disability, there is an all but universal protocol that downplays the claimant's treating physician's medical findings. In fact, Unum has created what may be called an illusion of credibility, which suggests that only Unum's conclusions can be correct; those who disagree are therefore simply wrong. One way this is done is by flooding the claimant's file with voluminous reports and findings all pointing to the conclusion that the individual is not disabled. Another common tactic is to switch claims handlers often during the review process. Each time a new handler takes over the claim, there is a delay. Delays can be devastating to a claimant anxiously in need of financial benefits, and long delays often result in the claimant giving up and accepting the fact of a denial despite the very real possibility that the claim is legitimate and should have been approved.
Cessation of Benefits
Even those fortunate enough to be approved for disability benefits are not beyond the scope of Unum's malfeasance; Unum too often issues letters terminating the claimant's benefits at some point after they have begun, again in most instances without proper justification.
Misuse of Medical Experts
One of the more common tactics employed by Unum is the use of independent medical examiners. If you are a disability insurance policyholder and apply for benefits, the insurer has the right to have you see a third-party medical professional if it needs more information about your condition than was supplied by your treating physician. However, Unum uses the same list of doctors repeatedly, and rather than rendering fair and unbiased opinions, they regularly side with Unum and against the claimant. There is little independence in their approach to the examinations.
Contact a Unum Denied Disability Claims Lawyer for Legal Advice
If you or a loved one has been treated unfairly by Unum or any other private disability insurance company, you need to explore your options. Unum has established a systematic operation of denial as a business tactic, incentivizing their employees for denials. Against this type of operation, you can't go it alone; call Uscher, Quiat, Uscher & Russo, P.C., a Unum denied disability claims legal group, at 800-797-5575.

Staffing firms can play a critical role in helping companies find talent. By staffing firms I mean any external search firm that earns a fee for making a placement with a company. This includes staffing agencies, RPOs, contingency and retained executive search firms, and their hybrids.
There is nothing inherently superior to recruiters who work at external firms when compared to corporate recruiters, other than they tend to work fewer assignments and their compensation is based on their results, not their level of activity. This is a huge advantage when it comes to representing stronger candidates.
Unfortunately, many (maybe most) staffing firms don't take full advantage of the opportunity. Too many compete on speed and lower pricing, presenting the same candidates their clients can find on their own. Equally as bad, many of their corporate clients force even the better firms to follow rules and processes that eliminate their unique advantages. To address this, I suggest using the following 10 factors when evaluating an outside search firm. If they don't meet this standard, don't use the firm.

Roy Hodgson has admitted he did not want his 40-year coaching career to end on the sour note of England's humiliating defeat against Iceland at Euro 2016 after taking up the reins back at his first club, Crystal Palace, in the Premier League.
The former national manager will oversee his first training session at Palace's Beckenham training ground on Wednesday after signing a two-year contract to succeed Frank de Boer. The Dutchman was sacked this week after only 77 days and four top-flight games in charge, with all of those matches lost without a goal scored en route to leave Palace propping up the Premier League with a daunting run of fixtures ahead.
Hodgson, whose first game in charge will be against Southampton on Saturday, had graduated through the youth‑team ranks at Palace, his local club, in the 1960s and has spoken of his pride at a homecoming. Yet he has also admitted the desire to erase memories of that defeat at Nice's Allianz Riviera last June, which ended his four-year spell with the national team.
"I didn't want to end it [my career] on a bad result but I think the 56 games and the seven defeats is not so bad," he said. "I think we changed the team around and the young, exciting team you see today is the team I was putting together. We lost a knockout game and I was very sad about that. I can't put that right but I'm very pleased to be back at the highest level with a good football club.
"This is very much the club of my boyhood and I remember in my youth watching the club from the Holmesdale Road end, which was terracing in those days, which gave me such fond memories. In those days I had dreams of playing for the team, then as a coach you think about coaching the team and a lot has happened in between times.
"It is very rewarding to find myself here now, in difficult times of course, as the Palace manager at a club that I have always loved and admired with a huge potential. We are the club of south London, with an enormously large fanbase. The ambitions here are realistic and there is an enormous potential for growth, so there are so many boxes ticked for me."
The former Internazionale, Blackburn Rovers, Liverpool and West Bromwich Albion manager, who has overseen 15 clubs as well as four national sides since embarking on his coaching career in 1976, will be joined at Selhurst Park by his assistant from Fulham and England, Ray Lewington, who spent time at Palace as a coach in the mid-1990s and whom Hodgson described as "a top-class coach". A first-team coach will be appointed after the departure of Sammy Lee, who had joined the club with Sam Allardyce last December.
"I haven't met them [the players] yet but I am looking forward to working with them," Hodgson said. "They did very well last season especially towards the end of the season – that trio of [Andros] Townsend, [Christian] Benteke and [Wilfried] Zaha were a threat – so I've got no reason to believe they can't do it again. Our fate will be decided after 38 games, not four but we have to get back on track. I hope we can achieve our goals. I am very excited to be back in club football and it is a long while since I have enjoyed the day-to-day sessions of training. That's where I most like to be: out on the training field."

WDQ files are incessantly popular. However, a file name containing WDQ file extension is problematic for some of the users. They have problems with correct opening of a file with WDQ extension. However, it should be remembered that WDQ file extension can match one or more types of files. The most popular is WDQ Offline Explorer Queue Format but if there are others, you will find information concerning them below.
So, it is worth looking close at the problem concerning WDQ files and search for its solution.
A list of programs supporting files types with WDQ extension can be found below. Applications are sorted according to appropriate operational systems and their popularity.

Category: Database Files
MetaProducts Offline Explorer
MetaProducts Offline Explorer Pro
MetaProducts Offline Explorer Enterprise
If WDQ file does not open, firstly, it is worth using files associations built in the Windows system with application that can support them. In order to do it, you should double-click a WDQ file icon. A list of programs that probably support such a file will appear. It is enough to choose one of them so that Windows would open a given extension with it. Incorrect file's association will result in Windows trying to open WDQ file with a wrong program all the time even if there is an appropriate application supporting this format on a drive. In this case, it is necessary to perform the above mentioned registry scanning and associations' repair.
If associations are correct and Windows still cannot open the file, most probably the computer does not have appropriate software supporting files with name containing WDQ in their extension. The solution to this problem is very simple. You should buy or download a free (if they exist) application that will allow you to open, browse and edit WDQ format (You can also try to find more informations on FileInfo). It is no risk because many paid programs have free test versions enabling to check their functionality.

@adrianyroessler:disqus If you're looking for social media tools to take Podio to another level I would seriously consider Crimson Hexagon (Listening / Monitoring / Insights) and Spredfast or Falcon Social (Publishing / Content Management / SCRM). They are a little more expensive but the results they deliver are way beyond what Hootsuite & Sysomos can deliver.

I am Michelle Huxford from Casper, Wyoming. I was in a very chronic financial issue and terminal health situation some few weeks back. After all my search for assistance from friends and neighbors proved abortive, I feel there was no one who truly cares. I became so emaciated due to lack of good food and my 2 kids age 5 and 8 were not also good looking due to lack of proper care as a result of finance. One faithful morning I saw an old time friend of my late husband and I told him all I have been going through and he said the only way he could help was to direct me to a good loan agency that also helped him, He explained to me on how he was financially down and how he got boosted by this loan agency UPSTART LOAN INC ( email@example.com ) who gave him loan at an affordable rate. He further assured me that they were the only legit loan firm he found in the quest of seeking for loan after been scammed by various fake loan lenders online. He gave me their email: firstname.lastname@example.com or text/call (574) 301-1639, That was how i applied and was also granted a loan and my life changed for the good. CONTACT THE ONLY GENUINE LENDERS( UPSTART LOAN INC) VIA email: firstname.lastname@example.com or call +1 (574) 301-1639 to resolve your financial mess…
One of my other favorite features of this course is the profile "achievements" page. If you're new to SEO and want to prove what you know/learned, DistilledU provides you with a public profile of "badges."
The conclusion became different shortly after. We were undoubtedly picking digital marketing. The site we assembled will there be for would-be customers to see on a regular basis no matter where we are at, whatever we're up to. This undoubtedly makes a difference since we currently have access to customers on a huge scale, who can locate our message and maybe buy our products.

Marketing professionals rely on clearly defined goals to determine the course of action when placing a product in the market.

I use many of these and glad to discover some news ones too. I'm preferring Post Planner over Buffer. I find it easier to use, finding new content and scheduling it easily, with the app mixing the types of content for me in post order (by my rules) even if I don't add them that way. I'm a big fan of Wistia, Salesforce, Canva, Unbounce, Mixpanel… so many good recs here. I'm going to check out Medium.

One of the biggest criticisms of plug-in cars, especially ones which are a plug-in variant of an existing gasoline or diesel model, is that they cost far more than the entry-level, non plug-in model.
Often, they cost more than their respective high-performance non-plug-in equivalent, offering buyers a cleaner, greener ride but at a price premium that simply puts most off. A case in point is the 2016 Volvo XC90 T8 plug-in hybrid SUV. More powerful than the rest of the Volvo XC90 range, it commands the highest price, despite governmental plug-in car incentives.
You'd think that for its first plug-in hybrid model, Mercedes-Benz would follow Volvo's lead, putting a premium on its S550 plug-in hybrid. Yet as GreenCarReports and CarsDirect explain, Mercedes-Benz has decided to do the exact opposite, pricing its 2016 S550 at $95,325 inclusive of a $925 destination charge — exactly the same price as its entry-level gasoline-only S550.
For that, you'll get a twin turbocharged three-litre V-6 gasoline engine mated to a 7G-tronic plus 7-speed automatic transmission, which includes an integrated 85 kilowatt electric motor. Combined with an on-board 8.6 kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack, the Mercedes-Benz S550 plug-in hybrid is capable of an all-electric range of around 20 miles in all-electric range around town and an NEDC-certified fuel economy of around 84 mpg U.S.
As always, we should point out that the European test cycle is overly optimistic in its results. While the U.S. EPA has yet to certify official fuel economy figures for the model, we'd guess a real-world figure of somewhere between 55 and 65 mpg should be possible, noting that with its battery pack empty, the S550 plug-in hybrid is likely to return sub-30 mpg fuel economy as is the case with the rest of the S550 family.
Like other plug-in hybrids on the market today, the Mercedes-Benz S550 can operate in all-electric, dual hybrid, charge hold and charge sustain mode, all of which will have different impacts on overall vehicle performance and efficiency. When both powertrains operate in concert, it can sprint from 0-62 mph in 5.2 seconds, almost identical to the non plug-in entry-level 4.7-litre model.
As with other S-Class models, the Mercedes-Benz S550 plug-in hybrid will come with a full complement of advanced safety features, including lane departure warning, forward collision assistance, stirring assistance, lane keep assist and adaptive lighting, as well as all of the luxury features you'd expect from a $95,325 Benz.
But while it is priced competitively against the rest of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class family, we'd like to point out that the S550 plug-in hybrid is also a limited-production vehicle, destined at least initially for sale only in certain key markets in California. This makes it something of a compliance car rater than a full-blown viable production model.
Worse still, it's likely to only attract buyers who are hardened Benz customers rather than prove a conquest car for the German automaker. That's because the high-end Tesla Model S P85D — Tesla's flagship luxury long-distance, full-size electric sedan — retails for $105,000 before incentives. Factor in the $7,500 federal tax credit, free fuel for life courtesy of Tesla's supercharger network, and free over-the-air updates to improve vehicle functionality over time, and we think most car buyers willing to spend upwards of $95,000 on a luxury plug-in sedan will opt for the Model S over the Merc.

40. Try a new recipe and/or food every month (3/143)
I tried Wendy's mushroom swiss burger the other day, but I'm not entirely sure it counts. :-/ Granted, I usually have my DQ mushroom swiss burger with just meat, mushrooms, and cheese. This burger had everything advertised: meat, mushrooms, cheese, tomato, lettuce, bacon, and some kind of sauce.
All-in-all, it wasn't bad. I like Dairy Queen's better, but this one was a nice substitute. I didn't have high hopes for the bacon, but it worked out really well. What threw me off was the cold contrast of the tomato and lettuce as compared to the warmth of the meats and mushrooms.
If I don't try anything else this month, this will be my new food. I did branch out in my (rare) fast food cuisine, which I rarely do. It was different, and I didn't alter the advertised trimmings (only because it didn't have mayo or onions... I will not eat those on my burger).
*nods* Yup.

We had a wonderful time in Vermont! It is beautiful there right now. Except for one rainy day, it was in the mid-80's.
We were both a little hesitant the first day there. We felt so foreign, even if we didn't necessarily look like it! But the second day there was great. We were able to meet with two different families. The first was our future pastor and his wife. He is the pastor of the only PCA church in Vermont. We loved them and they made us so excited to move here! Then we were able to go to my professor's house. He and his wife live on and run a farm (well, I guess she mostly runs it because he is teaching). The farm is about an hour from Burlington. The drive down was gorgeous...I can't wait to explore rural Vermont! The family was so kind and welcoming.
We found where we are living...the graduate student housing. When we first looked at it a few months ago, we thought it was too far from the school. But there is a bus that goes from the school to the apartments (since we are going to sell my car I need to be able to get to school some other way). Plus the apartments are a lot closer than we thought.
We mostly just spent a lot of time exploring the town of Burlington. We ate tons of good food as well. I could do a whole post on the food there, so maybe I will. But I am ready to go to bed now, so I will just share a few pictures:

To kick off the RELATE "Science by the Pint" series for 2015, we've brought back some of our alumni to take their science out of the lab and into the community!
When: July 30th: 6pm doors open, 6:30pm conversation begins
Where: Arbor Brew Co.
$$$: Free!
The Line up:
"Harvesting Heat to Power the World: A New Alternative Energy" with Jenna Walrath
You've likely heard of solar, wind and even hydro energy as alternative sources of energy,but what about heat? Thermoelectric materials directly convert heat to electricity without any moving parts. By studying these materials at the atomic scale, scientists can find ways to design highly-efficient thermoelectric generators to recover waste heat from systems such as cars and power plants.
"Mind Control and Making Babies" with Kristen Ruka
Millions of cases of infertility are unexplained, but the brain holds hope for some answers. While the majority of research into fertility problems focuses on the reproductive organs, Kristen is taking on a new line of investigation. She studies a highly specialized set of cells in the brain that control the release of hormones important in reproduction.
"Explosions in People for the Greater Good" with Brandon Patterson
Bubbles are pretty sweet, they can delight children, add fizz to your drink, and clean your dishes, but it may surprise you to find out that bubbles have a destructive side too, and have been responsible of tearing apart everything from the Hoover Dam to human tissue. In this talk, Brandon will dive deep into the wild world of bubbles and take a look at how doctors and scientists are working to harness their destructive powers for good, by using ultrasound waves to create carefully controlled bubble collapses and explosions in the body in order to fight cancer, kidney stones, and more!

Done Dirt Cheap by Sarah Nicole Lemon (ARC Review)
Tourmaline Harris's life hit pause at fifteen, when her mom went to prison because of Tourmaline's unintentionally damning testimony. But at eighteen, her home life is stable, and she has a strong relationship with her father, the president of a local biker club known as the Wardens.
Virginia Campbell's life hit fast-forward at fifteen, when her mom "sold" her into the services of a local lawyer: a man for whom the law is merely a suggestion. When Hazard sets his sights on dismantling the Wardens, he sends in Virginia, who has every intention of selling out the club—and Tourmaline.
But the two girls are stronger than the circumstances that brought them together, and their resilience defines the friendship at the heart of this powerful debut novel. (Goodreads)
*I received this ARC through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*
4/5 stars, not what I was expecting
Done Dirt Cheap by Sarah Nicole Lemon was not what I was expecting at all. To be honest, I thought this was going to be f/f, but it's not -- and that's okay because at no point does it really insinuate that it would be. I just assumed that based on the most badass cover ever. As for the story, it held a sort of...strange...tone, almost reminiscent of The Raven Boys in terms of southern setting and whimsy.
Thoughts while reading and explanations:
Kind of jumped right into the plot and I'm left with questions. Hopefully they'll be answered soon enough. Like the characters and their stories so far. - Literally during Tourmaline and Virginia's first interaction I have no clue if they are friends, ex-friends, strangers...Their interaction then (and throughout most of the book) takes place in this strange in-between land where they might be friends and might not be. Regardless of that, I liked the characters and their unique perspectives.
I figured out what is off about this book. The stakes aren't clear for either character. I know what they want, but not why they want/need it or what happens if they don't get it. - This is pretty self-explanatory. There was something strange about the book and it's that it starts off telling you what the characters want/need to do, but not why or what's at stake. These things change over the course of the story, but the original motives (at least in Tourmaline's case) stay vague.
Nothing is really happening, but it's okay? - The story is not action packed, but it does a lot to develop characters and setting.
Book continues to meander about without addressing the stakes, etc. - More avoidance of the stakes and action while slowly developing the second half of the story.
I like their friendship and dependence on each other, but I don't like that the bonding moment was never really shown. Why are they friends? They went from basically strangers to this. - At some point Tourmaline and Virginia become people who rely on each other and although they're put into some situations that would make them that way, I didn't exactly feel it as the reader.
I was thinking this was kind of anticlimactic until THE GUN - I can't really explain this one without spoilers. The ending is not all action, which is good because the rest of the book lacks it, but it does have a nice twist and closure.
Done Dirt Cheap by Sarah Nicole Lemon will be published on March 7, 2017.

Amir Khan claims British boxing's image took a big blow last month thanks to the antics of David Haye and Dereck Chisora.
Haye and Chisora were involved in a ugly brawl following Chisora's world heavyweight title defeat to Vitali Klitschko in Munich.
Khan, a friend of both Haye and Chisora, was reluctant to severely criticise both boxers at a press conference to launch his rematch with Lamont Peterson yesterday but admitted the brawl had not portrayed British boxing in a favourable light.
"Boxing in Britain has not been the best, especially with what happened between David and Chisora," Khan said.
"It's tough because I know both fighters well and they have been cool with me, but it just looked bad. We just don't need that in boxing."
Haye and Chisora have been accused of tarnishing the image of what is traditionally seen as a gentleman's sport with their trash-talking prior to fights.
Chisora's reputation sunk to a new low in the build-up to his latest fight when he slapped Klitschko at the weigh-in and then spat at his brother Wladimir in the ring immediately before the fight.
Khan insists he will never engage in such activity, claiming that he has too much respect for his opponent.
"Me and Lamont are two professional fighters who respect each other outside the ring," said Khan, who lost to Peterson on a controversial split decision in December.
"We have been in this position where we have been head to head and everything has been fine. There haven't been any punches thrown or anything and you will never see me getting in to things like that.
"I respect sport and I respect boxing fans."
Khan will fight Peterson in Las Vegas on May 19 after the WBA ordered a rematch between the two following their controversial first bout.
Khan, who lost both his lightweight IBF and WBA titles in the defeat, was incensed by the judges' decision to grant Peterson victory and has vowed to knock out the American to remove any doubt that he deserves to be the champion.
Peterson, a tough fighter who grew up in Washington, is confident of victory, however.
Peterson said: "He doesn't scare me. He said he was going to knock me out before the last fight but it didn't happen and I don't think that's going to happen again. If anything I think that I could get the knockout."

What people are saying
Droga5 Team/ Droga5
As we stood on the waterfront, and Kamau eloquently relayed the tales of ships coming into the port and brought to life the topography of NYC at the time, I was truly transported. He didn't just give a tour, he provided a historical experience. The tour was quite an eye opener. I have lived in NYC all my life but the school system failed to mention the historic details pertaining to how NYC was settled and the role it played in the slave trade.
Sabine Bernards
There is a way that Kamau teaches history that is, in itself, an act of rebellion - history as stories of individuals whose lives we learned about, stepped into, and empathized with during the tour. I came away from the tour thinking critically about race, class, and revolution - who leads it, who works together for it, and what forces work together to stop it. Black Gotham Experience changed how I see the streets where I walk everyday on my way to work and makes me wonder, "Why didn't I know this history until now?"
Fall 2016 Tour Goer
I've never seen something like that on a walking tour. It really made the story come alive, which makes sense because it involved people who really, you know, lived.
Summer 2016 Tour Goer
The way we "discovered" the WHYs together made a real difference too. It was cool to learn about this hidden history!
The Tours
Other Side of Wall Street (1609-1680)
Length: 1.5 hrs
Starting and ending point: Washington Square Park
The first story in the trilogy starts in 1643 with the beginning of a small town known as Land of the Blacks right outside the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam. By 1655, the Land of the Blacks was over twice the size of SoHo today and it continued to exist after the British took the island from the Dutch, making it the first free Black community in New York. This walking tour explains how this community started, how it functioned, and how it continued to exist into the 18th century. The creation of this overlooked Black town is the foundation to the Black Gotham Experience, and the focus of the first story in our graphic novel series.
Sarah's Fire (1680 – 1712)
Formerly known as "Caesar's Rebellion Part I"
Length: 1.5 hrs
Starting and ending point: BGX Studio at 192 Front Street in Seaport District
Alternative ending point: Pearl & Wall Streets
Sarah's Fire is set in the 18th century of British New York and shares a tale set on the southern tip of the island Manhattan that is home to the wealthy master class, merchants, pirates, sailors, indentures, prostitutes, free Black people, and enslaved Africans. This walking tour explains how the enslaved and free people of African descent worked together to subvert the system of slavery and define a culture of rebellion. Central to this story is an enslaved woman named Sarah, likely pregnant, who risked her life to fight for freedom. The fire that she weaponizes will reflect other rebellions taking place on West Indian sugar plantations and will culminate with the first armed Black rebellion in 1712.
Caesar's Rebellion (1712 – 1762)
Formerly known as "Caesar's Rebellion Part II"
Length: 1.5 hrs
Starting point: BGX Studio at 192 Front Street in Seaport District or Museum of the American Indian at Bowling Green
Ending point: Federal Hall, 26 Wall Street
Caesar's Rebellion picks up after the rebellion of 1712 when the political leaders of New York pass more laws to restrict Black movement. The port city of New York has shifting political and class divisions that shape the environment of the enslaved. Although stricter laws have been passed to limit Black life, the population of enslaved Africans continues to increase as does poor European indentures creating a large and loosely organized underclass. The result is another rebellion in 1741 known as "the Great Negro Plot". Unlike most rebellions in the colonies or West Indies, the conspirators were tried in the New York Supreme Court which was documented in an extensive journal by one of the justices creating an insightful look into slavery, colonial law, class, and politics.

Well I woke up this morning and discovered that I wasn't in Bilbao! So after a leisurely start I venture out...
I'm actually 2-3 hours walk away near the airport. The very helpful receptionist gave me maps and print-outs of how to get back on the Camino, but after 20 minutes trying to get out of the hotel carpark! I decide to retrace my steps from last night and pick up the yellow arrows down the road about 20 minutes away.
I call into the next hotel to fill up my water bottle and they kindly make me a sandwich for breakfast and then I'm on my way in the hot sunshine.
It's lovely to be back in the woods amongst birdsong and unfurling ferns. But it's quite a climb up and over the mountain to get into the Bilbao valley. I meet two young Americans and a couple of French girls after a while. I'm walking very slowly today, I have to stop often to get up the hills.
Eventually the hill turns downwards, through a park full of locals relaxing and barbecuing. I had forgotten what a varied and nice city Bilbao is, and I'm seeing it differently as a pilgrim because I'm on a different trajectory through the city.
I bump into the two German women from the Casa Rural in Markina!
I head for the albergue - they are full or not open until June! I sit on a wall to phone round hostels by a bar and a Spanish woman phones round for me and finds an Albergue on the other side of town with space. It's an hour's walk away and I plan to cheat and catch a bus- but I can't find the bus stop so I walk through the suburbs following yellow arrows. Areas with lots of Africans and Turkish (think Peckham) and then past lots of Aldis and very urban high-rise, out into the country and up, up more hills until I arrive at... a derelict school.
YIKES! With great trepidation I trudge up two flights of stairs to the reception.... to be met with great warmth by Matteo and Jasmin. What a gift hospitality is; it turns tiredness into laughter and what seems derelict into a home for the night. The Hospitaleros in the Pilgrim's albergues are volunteers and so offer a real service to weary travellers. A woman on a bicycle arrives at 9.30pm looking absolutely exhausted; she was carefully looked after, fed and given the last bed.
There is a large gathering of Basque families singing traditional songs, dancing and eating a late lunch on long tables and playing football in the playground. I go and watch for a while.
Preparations for our supper were overseen by Jasmin and started at 6.30pm with mass vegetable chopping and we all sat down to home-made tuna salad, chorizo stew and yoghurt at 8pm. I'm the only English person, so I'm glad when a Canadian woman joins the table. The others are French, German and Spanish.
We all wash-up after the meal and after a COLD shower (I manage by washing tiny bits of me at a time), it's time for bed in a huge room with the beds placed all around the outside. Huge thunderstorm later. A lovely day.

The Farm
Lough Boora farm is one of the longest established organic farms in the Irish midlands. Mainly grassland, it produces organic beef and lamb. About 5has of the farm is devoted to organic vegetable production with over fifty different vegetables grown in polytunnels and in the fields. Small amounts of organic fruit are also grown. Lough Boora farm is also licenced to import organic fruit and out of season vegetables, which complements our own large range of home produced, seasonal vegetables.
Most of the produce from Lough Boora farm is sold directly to the end consumer. Our organic meats are sold in bulk for freezer orders and in small quantities at our market stalls or with our weekly vegetable boxes, which are delivered direct to customers throughout the midlands all year round. Sales are currently running about 10% ahead of the same period last year.
The Job - Horticultural Manager
Our horticultural manager of eighteen seasons has decided to leave in pursuit of other interests. We are seeking a replacement for the new growing season.

Recently, I accompanied Legal Aid attorney Michelle de Blank to an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meeting for a six year old boy I'll call "Jonathan." Jonathan has ADHD, a disorder that hinders his ability to learn in a large classroom setting despite his average cognitive capabilities. Although he struggles at school, many children like him flourish with appropriate intervention and assistance in the classroom.
Students with disabilities are guaranteed a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) under a federal law called the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). IDEA includes provisions for an IEP, under which a team of individuals involved in the child's care and education convene to set educational guidelines based on the child's individual needs. To qualify for an IEP with special services under IDEA, a child must have one of the thirteen disabilities listed in the statute.
Since IDEA's enactment in 1975, the number of children and youth (aged 3-21) diagnosed with learning disabilities has steadily increased. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, around 13% of all children and youth enrolled in public school in 2015 had disabilities that qualified them for IDEA services. Learning disabilities are even more prevalent among children who experience some degree of trauma or poverty, which affect nearly all of Legal Aid's clients.
Even if children qualify for IDEA, school districts do not always provide them with the services they need to make it through school. Thus, Legal Aid steps in to ensure that school districts are doing their job in providing the appropriate services to their students with disabilities. A significant portion of that work involves making sure that parents' voices are heard throughout the IEP process, so they do not have to struggle to feel involved in their child's education. Our attorneys ensure that each parent is educated about their child's rights, and their concerns presented and taken seriously during IEP meetings before any decisions are made.
Since the majority of Legal Aid's clients are not English-speaking, they are less able to access information about the laws that protect their children, leaving them at a disadvantage during IEP meetings. Even at meetings where an interpreter is present, there remains a barrier to direct communication that creates a feeling of detachment from the process, preventing parents from raising questions of their own. For example, in the meeting I attended, I noticed repeatedly that the interpreter could not keep up with the discussion through no fault of her own, and failed to communicate everything that was being discussed. More often than not, it felt as though Jonathan's mother was not even there. Thankfully, Michelle's ability to speak Spanish allowed her to communicate directly with Jonathan's mother, enabling her to be more involved in the process.
Even if they do not face the added challenge of a language barrier, many parents remain silent during IEP meetings while other parties decide the best course of action for their child. With so many voices and opinions at these meetings—between the child's therapist, psychiatrist, teachers, and health care providers—it can be difficult for any parent to get a word in edgewise. During the meeting I attended, the mother did not voice her consent to the IEP or her personal insight about Jonathan's condition until prompted and encouraged by Michelle.
Even if they disagree with the outcome of an evaluation or IEP, parents often feel pressured to sign special education agreements without voicing their concerns. Without legal advocacy, many parents are observers in their child's education process, when they should be participants. Understanding the importance of early intervention in special education, Legal Aid attorneys like Michelle work closely with parents to ensure that students with disabilities in San Mateo County are not underserved.

We all own items that are precious and valuable, whether for sentimental, expense, or age reasons. While the values of these items can often go overlooked during day to day living, when it comes to moving house, their value and how to move them is often at the forefront of our minds.
While the closest some of us may have got to owning antiques is watch Antiques' Roadshow on a Sunday, those of us who own some heirlooms themselves should follow these tips for successful relocation of antique or valuable goods:
- Package carefully – be sure to protect your antiques by packing them properly. Use professional packing materials rather than just newspapers, as these will better protect your goods. Use bubble wrap to package china and glass individually, and then place in a cardboard box. Use packaging peanuts or cold popcorn to fill the leftover space in the box and protect your goods.
- Let your moving team know – if you're moving an expensive or old item, then let your removals team know what they're moving beforehand. This will guarantee that they'll take that little bit of extra care when moving your antique items.
- Label your boxes – make it extra clear about the fragility or importance of the item you're moving by labelling the box. This will serve as a reminder during the moving process, and will make it easy for you to allocate these items once the move is complete.
Here at Intransit, we've got plenty of experience helping move valuables and antique items. Our professional team can help with the relocation of small valuables to large expensive items. We can even help with the moving of pianos!
If you're looking to move a much loved antique, and live in the Bath area, then why not give this removals company a call? You can reach our friendly team on 01225 759200.

It's only a 90-minute flight from splashy Sydney, but the Australian state of Tasmania feels much farther. Part of the island's haunted, otherworldly mien might be attributable to its geographical and atmospheric particulars: It is, after all, the country's last defense before Antarctica, and its extreme southerly position means that for much of the year the land is shrouded in a crepuscular light.
But Tassie, as it's locally known, also suggests a metaphorical darkness. Originally settled by Aboriginals 40,000 years ago, it became notorious when a British penal colony was established in 1803; eventually, almost half of Australia-bound English convicts were sent there. The island was known for the colonists' brutal, near-total destruction of the Aboriginal population, the majority of whom were slaughtered, interned or killed by diseases against which they had no immunity.
For these reasons, mystery has long surrounded Tasmania, but recently, the very things that made the island seem inaccessible — its raw, lonely, tree-smothered landscapes, almost half of which are nature reserves; its sparse population (just 518,000-odd people on a landmass half the size of England) — have given it a new life as a destination for hikers and the food-obsessed. These days, the areas in and around Hobart, Tasmania's capital, are gaining notice for their restaurants and local producers: A trip to nearby Bruny Island is like visiting a locavore's Disneyland, with a notable community of energetic cheese-, beer- and chocolate-makers.
And speaking of Disneyland: Everyone here, from innkeepers to hops growers, is quick to acknowledge that the real force behind Tasmania's emergence on the libertine's trail is David Walsh, the eccentric multimillionaire gambler who in 2011 opened the Museum of Old and New Art in Hobart. The museum, which juxtaposes a massive lead-and-broken-glass Anselm Kiefer sculpture with highlights from Walsh's collection of Roman antiquities, is both gleefully bonkers and utterly idiosyncratic. The result is an institution that feels as improbable — and as refreshing — as southern Tasmania itself.
Rent out this lushly forested 76-acre island and you get everything — the three-bedroom main house, with its squishy sofas and wood-burning stove, decorated in cream-hued linens and with branches of coral; the two-bedroom boat house, perched on the dock overlooking the bay; and the canvas tepee sheltering a queen-size bed — all to yourself. The Melbourne-based owners have transformed a family retreat into a getaway that fulfills every private-island fantasy; if requested, its helpful manager will light bonfires, dive for lobster and sea urchin and shuck freshly harvested oysters.
The main reason to stay in one of MONA's eight stand-alone suites — most of which have double-height ceilings, verandas and sleek décor — is the five-minute walk to the museum. This means you can be first in line to see (and smell) Wim Delvoye's notorious "Cloaca Professional" (a machine that generates feces once daily) or, more agreeably, James Turrell's "Amarna, 2015" gazebo. There are also two on-site restaurants, and Hobart is a short drive away.
Housed in an airy, light-filled atrium overlooking one of Hobart's piers, Aloft's sophisticated but unpretentious fare highlights the island's produce. The menu is always changing, but might include a slab of unctuous caramelized pork belly with black garlic and vermicelli, or savory custard with chunks of spanner crab and flecks of lovage.
The seafood-heavy plates here recently included gnocchi-tender hunks of octopus, crowned with feathery fennel fronds; and grilled kingfish with iceberg-lettuce salad. The restaurant, just as beautiful and unassuming as the food, is a garagelike space in the center of Hobart with towering windows, cement floors and simple Scandinavian modern furniture.
Founded by Rodney Dunn, a former editor at one of Australia's most popular food magazines, and his wife, Severine, this cooking school, housed in a 129-year-old former schoolhouse, takes the farm-to-table approach seriously. Their gardens provide virtually all the raw ingredients, from herbs to pork, for instruction. Small groups of students learn how to do everything from grind corn to stuff sausage to can peaches during daylong sessions.
One of the gourmet pioneers on Bruny, an island southeast of Hobart, this small-scale producer uses almost exclusively local ingredients: The milk for their renowned raw cheese comes from a farm just a few miles away. Make sure to visit the new on-site brewery as well as the aging room, where shelves are stacked with dozens of wheels of the company's signature hard, grassy curd.
It may not look like much — a small shack with a few benches indoors and outside — but who needs fancy design when you have oysters this fresh? This Bruny Island oyster farm (the beds are just across the road) sells briny, addictive Pacific bivalves year-round, along with local beers and wines.
This tiny bakery in downtown Hobart offers a daily selection of expertly made croissants, pastries and bread, but it's the orange-coconut-and-almond cake — dense, moist and fragrant with anise — that approaches perfection.
If Rei Kawakubo lived on a sheep farm, she might design the sort of clothes that you'll find at this Hobart boutique: drop-shouldered, deceptively simple tunics and fisherman-inspired pants made from silky, draped wool. There's also a lovely selection of earthy ceramics and brass jewelry made by local artisans.

Some of oil painter Malcolm Hughes' earliest memories of his Amarillo home still inform his work today.
"I grew up off Teckla Street, on the side looking east, and in my childhood, I remember the ... copper smelter smoke over the town," Hughes said. "That was one of the first interesting landscapes I remember."
Decades later, after a career devoted to landscape painting and teaching, Hughes will return to Amarillo for his first show in at least 20 years.
"Landscapes from Across America" opens with a 4 to 7 p.m. Thursday reception at Panhandle Art Center inside Sunset Center, 3701 Plains Blvd.
The full show hangs through Oct. 8, with selected works hanging through Oct. 21.
Hughes said his Amarillo upbringing helped him fall in love with art, particularly the works hanging in his parents' furniture store and art gallery in the Wolflin Village area.
"Part of how I got into landscape painting was looking at and enjoying those paintings," Hughes said. "Sometimes I'd take the paintings home and copy them and be interested in seeing how they achieved what they did."
Hughes and wife Anne Gaut Hughes, also an Amarillo native, settled near Charlottesville, Va., but he continues to travel the country to find inspiration for his work.
"I think what motivates me, as best I can tell, is a sense of gratitude," he said. "I don't want to sound overly virtuous here, because I'm like everybody and complain about the world, but in my saner moments ... is a sense of gratitude for the great lands we live in as a gift from our creator."

(you might need: Flash)
Apparently the lovely Neil Diamond is way popular with the modern older crowd here in
Otherwise, not much to report with this update but it's likely that I'll ramble on about stuff that gets more and more interesting the farther down you read.
The biggest difference between where I was the last time I updated this blog, and where I am now, is that those two place are, in fact, different places. They are about as different as the coastal city of
Big Mountains! Deep valleys! Snow! Rain! Sun! Indians! Festivals! Sweets! The Backstreet Boys? Cheese? Hippies? Heliskiing? ---This place is like absolutely like nowhere else in
In the far reaches of
Manali: (that word is hyperlinked, by-the-way, to the Wikipedia entry of the same title) Let's read it…
…Hmm, well that's was interesting (the link to charas has its merits as well. More on that later) (It should also be noted that the link to Yak Skiing is an entry about a friend of mine featured in various bicycling and hiking pictures below.)(That reminds me, I need add his contact info to Wiki…There now you can go Yak Skiing any time you're here, just call up Peter). And a pretty good summary. Now, for an irresponsibly fearless act of possibly contradicting the information in the supplied Manali link, let's continue with a run-down of the area…
One little absence from that summery is the mention of Hadimba's temple and what it stands for. It stands for the purpose of enclosing a cave and trapping inside the devil. Cool! Well, a goddess who used to be a devil, until a Hindu god tired of her mucking about with his livelihood, married her, and turned her to the good side (watch out devils for all those shyster gods!). Ask anybody who's not in the tourist industry and they'll tell you that this devil-turned-goddess still watches over, and so influences, the valley in all sorts of peculiar ways. That may go a long way to explaining why people here are a little nutty and why the
Manali (and the greater
1. Winter: the, like-all-the-other-Himalayan-villages, season. Not many extras are here, and the locals act like regular Indians.
The winters are blisteringly cold - the general lack of respectable heating systems see to that - but the snow piles up and those who love it come to build snow men (and ski). Helicopters access the higher peaks and provide 1000's of vertical feet of powder skiing on massive mountains. Others prefer to hike/tour the mountains and forgo the $1000/day/person price tag of the helicopter expeditions. Nearly all of these people are wacky foreigners. The Indian crowd takes the more sane approach (though perceptively much more boring and exceedingly uncomfortable approach) of enrolling in a two-week government run ski course on a sad little slope with no functioning lift and withering enthusiasm.
Gosh, it was FEBRUARY when I first started the blog entry you're reading now. I started this blog entry the day I arrived here in the valley; it began something like this…
Day One:
(Though I don't intend to maintain any chronological tradition.)
Let me mention one of many peculiar elements of my situation considering the current circumstances: I am typing on my laptop computer. It is an unexpected place to be doing such things; up here at 9000ft, protected from the snow by thin wooden walls, and so far away from civilization and civilized insulation, but there you go…
While in Mumbai, I was invited here to the mountains by the Himalayan Ski Village for the purpose of my contributing, in some way, to the project. I didn't know what to expect. Fortunately I packed my snow boots, a down sleeping bag, and my PADI scuba diving card because immediately it was suggested that I join the research team high up on the mountain. The route up was part thesaurus-entry-for-rough jeep ride, and part hike. We made our way to the small
Perched on a toeclinchingly steep mountainside, this village clusters from about fifteen wooden buildings/huts/shacks all connected by snow-gone-ice walkways sculpted in design to offset the balance of anyone wanting to use them. Though the village is deserted for the winter, I am surprised to be given my own spacious room about twice the size, and happily far less cluttered, then that which I have in the city. The differences between my city room and this one are subtle: the wooden floor and bed, a fireplace in the middle of the room (which I am too frightened to use for fear of the fire spreading or death by asphyxiation.), a ceiling to bonk the heads of short people like me on, and a general "it's too cold to do anything" mentality that I'm settling in to. In the common-house a cook prepares all of our (unbelievably tasty) meals and keeps a fire burning wonderfully warm. After a long high-altitude day on the snow, both the food and the warmth are magical.
I didn't have a camera then, but I do now, here's a picture of the village a few weeks ago on a bewitching spring afternoon. Near here is also the site planned to build the mountain lodge of the ski village.

Man Shoots Wife, Father-In Law Dead...
A woman and her father were shot dead by her husband in front of their six-week old baby in a hospital waiting room - before he turned the gun on himself.
Shocking CCTV footage was captured inside the hospital as fellow patients and their families heard the shots ring out in a waiting room.
Thanyamas Thanamsri, 26, had been visiting doctors on Friday afternoon with her husband Chaiyaporn, 31, and her father, Samphan Thanamsri, 60, for postpartum problems when the incident happened.
Just two weeks ago she had come through surgery for kidney, heart and lung failure and had posted a picture of herself and the six-week-old tot.
At the time she wrote "death is closer than we expect so take care of the people you love".
On Friday she was having a check up when the two men she was with started arguing after her father criticised her husband for not having a job and said that she should leave him.
Furious Chaiyaporn pulled a gun from his bag and blasted his nagging father-in-law twice in the head before shooting his wife in the chest, arms and back. He then shot himself.
The baby boy, now an orphan, survived the horror.
Two patients were injured from stray bullets while dozens more ran screaming from the building as the bloodbath unfolded at the Nakhon Pathom Hospital in northern Thailand at 1.30pm.
Police are now investigating the horror double-murder suicide.

Megan Trevarthen, Board member and co-chair of Levé's Marketing and Communications Committee, sat down with Elizabeth Nye, Executive Director of Girls Inc. of the Pacific Northwest, to talk about Girls Inc. and why she is excited for the Levé partnership this year.
Elizabeth Nye is a visionary who believes that all girls in the Pacific Northwest deserve to access experiences to equip them to navigate gender, economic, and social barriers and to grow into healthy, educated and independent adults. Elizabeth knows first-hand about the barriers women and girls face to accessing these opportunities.
Growing up as a Portland native, Elizabeth was the first woman on her mother's side to pursue higher education. After graduating from St. Mary's Academy, she received her undergrad at Georgetown University before earning a Masters in International Affairs from Columbia University. She has personal experience watching the strong, smart and bold women in her family unable to fully realize their full professional potential or become economically-independent, which is the reason the Girls Inc. mission is so important to her. She sees those same barriers to opportunity mirrored in many of the lives of girls her organization serves. Girls Inc. seeks to fill in those gaps and provide access to professional role models to inspire girls to fulfill their potential.
"My grandmother never went past an 8th grade education and raised five children. My mother married at 18, had kids after graduating high school, and worked as a secretary when she really wanted to be an interior designer," said Elizabeth. "There were limited career options available to women during those generations. I had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up because I had no professional women in my network. Our job at Girls Inc. is to show these girls what is out there for them."
According to Elizabeth, what keeps her up at night is that Girls Inc. has programming at their fingertips, yet more demand across the state than they can currently meet. To reach as many girls as possible, Girls Inc. is moving away from the traditional center-based model to a unique outreach approach, making transportation and access less of an issue for girls in need. Girls Inc.'s focus on serving the "whole girl" is largely achieved through programming such as the popular community-based Girls Groups, as well as mentorship and experiences. Elizabeth is quick to acknowledge the importance of training volunteers to deliver the same efficacy and standards across all programs.
"Every program we facilitate, we try to build in something that challenges the girls." Elizabeth said. "There are so many messages for girls not to take risks, but we want them to know that they can try something new and be successful. Whether that's snowboarding or going to Powell's for the first time, we want to get them out of their comfort zone in a way that still makes them feel safe, supported, and confident."
The need for creating safe, supportive spaces for girls remains critical, as young women deserve the opportunity to develop their own sense of self outside of toxic cultural norms that devalue and objectify women. Girls Inc. takes on some of the big issues facing girls today in a few notable ways:
- Bullying and harassment are top concerns for women and girls. Through programs like Allies In Action, girls learn how to positively navigate social situations and overcome relational aggression.
- The Media Literacy program increases girls' awareness of the scope and power of the media and the effects of media messages on girls and women.
- Girls Inc. extends girls' voices, issues, and concerns to policy makers, corporations, and the media. The Girls' Bill of Rights serves as the foundation for Girls Inc. - shaping responses to the difficult social issues facing girls.
- Eureka! is a five year program that brings 8th - 12th grade girls, including many who will be first generation college applicants, onto local college and university campuses for an intensive STEM summer program.
You can spend hours reading through Girls Inc.'s direct service offerings; however, Elizabeth reminds us that one of the most important ways to be champions for girls is to be a positive role model and simply be there for them.
"These girls are so excited that people just want to have a conversation with them," Elizabeth said. "Some of them have told me they've never had a birthday party. They'll say to me 'I can't believe you remembered my name.' It may seem like nothing to you, but you can't realize the impact it has to just spend time with them. Many of the girls just don't get enough interaction with positive adult role models."
It's easy to see why we at Levé are so excited about the natural fit of our partnership with Girls Inc. this year. As an all-women professional organization, the idea of lifting up girls to realize their full potential and grow up to be successful, confident, and healthy women is inspiring and powerful.
"There is so much about philanthropy I want the girls to learn from Levé," Elizabeth said. "When I think about what Levé does to give back to the community and engage citizens - that is what I want for our girls. I can't think of better role models for them."
So how can you get more involved with Girls Inc.? Let us count the ways!
- Host a field trip or be a guest speaker
- Attend or donate to an upcoming event, such as the upcoming Day of the Girl
- Become a Girls Guide
- Not sure where to start? Just ask!
