Bedfordshire and Luton Wheelchair Service
The key purpose for our service is to clinically assess and provide appropriate wheelchairs and associated equipment (posture and pressure care) to clients with a long-term mobility need, (over 6 months). The Wheelchair Service will continue to support the clients and maintain any issued equipment. Having the most appropriate mobility equipment can improve quality of life, facilitate independence, enable access into the wider community and reduce the risk of developing deformity for our clients.
The wheelchair service provides training for the community prescribers of basic wheelchairs for adult clients that are not totally wheelchair dependant. We offer specialist assessment for adult clients that are totally wheelchair dependent, all children and bariatric clients. We run a bespoke seating service for clients with complex postural needs that require made to measure / moulded seating. We are able to pressure map as part of a specialist pressure care assessment and provide a range of complex cushions. We work closely with seating companies and hold regular clinics for equipment trail or review.
Each new episode of care is completed within 18 weeks of referral and this is normally sufficient for most clients, however if something takes longer to resolve we would continue to work with the client until the clinical situation required. We accept referrals for review throughout the time the client has the equipment, and have an approved repairer contract to ensure that the wheelchairs are properly maintained while it is on issue.
We currently review all bespoke seating clients annually. We would like to offer a review service for all children and powered wheelchair users but we are currently not commissioned to do this.

2. Symptom Control Management if the child or young person requires a period of regular assessment and monitoring of symptoms, for example blood pressure monitoring or oxygen monitoring. The CCN's also support oxygen dependent babies, children/ young people at home and children with complex medical needs and work together with a range of professionals to assess plan and deliver care to maximise opportunities.
3. Education - if the family requires training to enable them to continue providing support and ongoing care, for example enteral feeding, suctioning and administration of medication.
4. Acting as advocate for child and family, identifying a Lead Professional in conjunction with family.
5. Acting as resource for other professionals to the right person, at the right time care for the child/young person in the right way.
Children's Continuing Care Team
The aim of our service is to support children with complex medical continuing healthcare needs to live within their family home and fulfil their potential as individuals. This includes supporting them in a variety of settings in the community for example, schools and nurseries. Without the support of the team many families would find it impossible to continue to care for their child at home.
Community Heart Failure Nurse Service
The Heart Failure Nurse Service aims to enhance the care of patients with a diagnosis of heart failure, improving quality of life and ultimately preventing avoidable admissions to the acute sector. This is achieved by focusing on improving patient self-management, through education and support, also offering educational sessions to staff in primary care.

- Bitcoin Price: £273.21 (via CoinDesk.com)
Bitcoin's price dropped again suddenly in the last 24 hours, down more than 5%, dragging with it most of the rest of the cryptocurrency markets.
The reason? Well we're not really sure, but then again the price of bitcoin never needs a concrete reason to fluctuate wildly.
One reason could be the discovery of six wallpaper apps which were actually hiding sophisticated mobile bitcoin mining malware and which Google has now removed from the Play store - but this is unlikely to have caused such a significant crash.
Elsewhere, litecoin is down more than 8%, peercoin is down more than 12% and dogecoin has taken a big tumble of more than 18% despite the fact today marks the meme-based cryptocurrency's first conference.
Dogecoin Partys at Dogecon SF
Just four-and-a-half months since launching, the meme-based cryptocurrency dogecoin will today hold its first ever conference in San Francisco.
Dogecon SF has been organised by Follow the Coin and will feature talks by dogecoin founder Jackson Palmer along with the founder of litecoin Charlie Lee.
There will also be a message from the mysterious Hood, who has been distributing huge amounts of dogecoin to the poor and needy, along with appearances by the creator of DogeTipBot David Dvorak and Doge4Water founder Eric Nakagawa.
There will of course be a costume contest with Palmer will be rewarding the winner with the most attendee votes 100,000 doge.
For all of us sadly unable to attend the shibe celebration, the organisers have kindly set up a livestream of the event here.
With over 700 shibes registered to attend, it looks like it will be one big party.
State of Bitcoin report shows bitcoin venture capital boost
CoinDesk's latest State of Bitcoin report reveals that the amount of venture capital being invested in bitcoin has shot up in the last quarter, with $64.2 million (£38.2m) already invested in bitcoin-based companies in 2014 so far.
The report also estimates that more than 60,000 merchants globally now accept bitcoin as payment, with the vast majority of these online - though there are now over 4,000 physical stores accepting the cryptocurrency.
The biggest type of offline merchant accepting bitcoin are food businesses with accommodation, health and education also making up significant portions of the
CoinDesk plans to publish quarterly reports on the state of the bitcoin industry and it is looking for your feedback and ideas on how to make the reports better.
Maidsafe safecoins crowdsale raises more than $5m in two days
MaidSafe, the decentralised internet platform builder, has announced that its crowdsale is now complete having completely sold out its initial run of 429,496,729 safecoins (representing 10% of the technology) in just two days.
In total, MaidSafe took in 7,348 bitcoins and 51,000 mastercoins which at current prices represents about $5.3 million (however the value of mastercoin has dropped by 50% in the last three days, meaning a potential loss of around $2m for MaidSafe).
Even with the price drop, MaidSafe says this represents "the most that has ever been raised in two days in the history of crowdfunding." The money raised will go towards software development.
The idea of a decentralised internet has gained attention over the last year following revelations of mass surveillance undertaken by intelligence agencies that include the National Security Agency (NSA) and the UK's Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ).
The technology developed by Maidsafe would allow data to be encrypted and shared across networks privately and completely securely.
Xapo launches credit card linked to bitcoin wallet
Xapo, the insured bitcoin vault which has been gaining a lot of attention recently among big bitcoin investors, is looking to expand its influence to average bitcoin users, by launching a credit card linked directly to your bitcoin wallet, which can be used at any store which accepts Mastercard.
Everyone with a Xapo bitcoin wallet will get a free credit card number complete with expiration date that they can use to pay online. For $15 they can get a physical card with magstripe which will be usable in any store that accepts Mastercard - with PIN and chip cards available in Europe.
Unlike the recently launched Cryptex card, the Xapo credit card doesn't yet allow for ATM withdrawals.

Erroll Davis Jr. to Retire from GM Board of Directors
General Motors has announced that one of its boardmembers, Erroll Davis Jr., will not seek re-election at this year's Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Thus, with the recent appointment of Linda Gooden, the number of members on GM's Board of Directors returns to 12.
"On behalf of the board, I thank Erroll for his significant contributions to GM over the past six years," said General Motors Chairman Tim Solso. "Erroll is committed to the success of the company and has always focused on what was best for all shareholders."
Davis, currently a director of Union Pacific Corporation, has served on the boards of a number of major corporations including Amoco, BP, PPG Industries, and Wisconsin Power & Light. He served as the President and CEO of Alliant Energy Corporation from 1998 to 2005, and also as the company's Chairman from 2000 to 2006. From 2006 to 2011, he was the Chancellor of the University System of Georgia, and from 2011 to 2014, he filled the role of Superintendent of Atlanta Public Schools.
Davis is a recipient of a number of major awards, including being named one of Black Enterprise Magazine's "75 Most Powerful Blacks in Corporate America" in 2005, one of Fortune's "50 Most Powerful Black Executives in America" in 2002, and U.S. Black Engineer magazine's 1988 Black Engineer of the Year.
"GM has gone through a number of challenging structural and managerial changes, and I now firmly believe it is in the hands of wonderful and capable leadership who can take the company to new heights," Davis said in a statement.

Love the black&white, I just scored some ditto houndstooth in a thrift shop the other day, and have been pondering what to do with it....Hm... :-)
Looking forward to the the lemony number as well!
I die. That is SO cute!
I'm in sewing room transit right now - moving from the dining room table to an actual room (er, half of the laundry room, but a ROOM nonetheless:). Once I'm in there, a Pendrell blouse is on the top of the to-do list!
Thanks for the inspiration!

Spa Radiance Medical offers a range of injectable dermal fillers for the face that will smooth your skin, minimize wrinkles, and make you look your very best*. Fillers replenish the natural hydration that your skin produces, restoring your youthful appearance with minimal downtime and results that may last for months.
*Results may vary
There are so many fillers. Which ones should I consider?
Dermal fillers are widely used, and becoming more specialized in their applications. Different attributes of fillers are useful for different target areas. Here is the comprehensive choice of dermal fillers offered by Spa Radiance Medical:
Belotero is a premium hyaluronic acid filler that provides soft and even replenishment under the skin. It can be used to reduce under eye circles, fill fine lines and wrinkles, enhance lip plumpness, and smooth vertical lip lines.
Juvederm Ultra XC is an FDA-approved injectable gel made primarily of hyluronic acid. Juvederm fillers add natural volume and hydration in delicate areas where maximum silkiness is appropriate. It is appropriate for moderate lines, such as smile lines around the eyese, marionette lines, and lip enhancement.
Juvederm Ultra Plus XC is an FDA-approved injectable gel with a thicker consistency, which provides dramatic and longer-lasting results. It is ideal for moderate to deep lines around the nose and mouth. Your trained technician can recommend which Juvederm product is appropriate for your treatment.
Juvederm Voluma XC is the first and only FDA-approved filler for the cheek area, which creates contours in the middle of the face as it gently lifts the skin. Juvederm Voluma XC is excellent for filling in the flattened cheeks that naturally come with aging. It contains lidocaine, which helps numb the treatment area during the procedure; results from Juvederm Voluma XC last up to two years.
Restylane Silk is FDA approved for lips and lines around the mouth. Restylane dissolves back into the body over time and is a gentle filler ideal for first-time users and those with special sensitivity. Restylane Silk contains a lower concentratration of HA, reducing the risk of swelling, particularly in delicate skin areas. Results may last three to four months, allowing users to "try out" a filler before using another product for longer results.
Radiesse is a gel containing microscopic spheres of calcium that both adds volume and stimulates your body to produce more of its own natural, plumping collagen. Results from Radiesse can last a year or more.
Perlane is a volume solution to address multiple facial issues. It is popular for restoring facial volume, temporal hollows, and minimizing scarring. Perlane has larger gel particles which make it most effective for plumping deep folds and wrinkles, augmenting the chin, and softening acne scars. Perlane results last six months to a year, and is fully biodegradable.
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable serums that replenish the body's natural hyaluronic acid, often called HA, to rehydrate the skin and restore its plump and smooth appearance. Our body's natural production of HA diminishes with age, UV exposure, smoking, and other environmental factors. Fillers replace HA or collagen back into the skin to restore its youthful look.
Why do fillers help with wrinkles?
Our body naturally produces collagen and HA to hydrate the skin. Wrinkles emerge when less collagen and HA is produced, causing the skin to sag with less structural support. Injecting HA fillers back into targeted areas helps to replace the support and smooth the skin where lines, scars, or wrinkles appear.
What is the treatment like?
One of our highly trained Spa Radiance Medical professionals, a Doctor or Nurse Practitioner, will consult with you to determine facial areas you would like to improve, and suggest which fillers may be best for individual treatment areas. After application of ice or numbing cream, they will use a very fine syringe needle to inject the appropriate prescription pharmaceutical filler into that area. A filler treatment usually takes less than an hour for one treatment area. Results are visible, immediate and impressive, and usually lasts for six months or more, depending upon the filler and treatment area.
What facial areas should I consider for fillers?
Dermal fillers are excellent for smoothing crow's feet around the eyes, restoring the cupid's bow on the upper lip, uplifting corners of the mouth, and softening smile lines from the nose to the mouth and marionette lines downward from mouth to chin. Fillers can also be used to restore plumpness to the cheekbones and contour the face.
Does it hurt to get fillers?
Numbing cream and ice can be used to minimize discomfort, which is momentary. The very fine needles prick at the moment of injection, and feel cold as they enter the skin. Once the needle is removed, there is very little to no pain. Although swelling or bruising can occasionally occur for a few days, the visible evidence of the injection is minimal.
What's the difference between fillers and relaxants like Botox and Dysport?
Botox and Dysport are used to relax individual facial muscles, like the furrows on the forehead, frown lines between the brows, and crow's feet beside the eyes. Fillers 'fill in' the lines and contour the face, adding plumpness to the skin on top of the muscles. Fillers and injectable relaxants are often used in conjunction to restore a naturally youthful appearance. Your Spa Radiance Medical professional will recommend a personalized treatment plan that may include the fillers and injectable treatments most appropriate for your needs.
Botox is one of the most popular anti-aging treatments in the world. Botox smoothes away wrinkles by weakening the underlying muscles that repetitively
form wrinkles. Botox injectable treatments last up to four months.
Dysport is an injectable treatment that temporarily blocks the signals that particular nerves send to muscles in targeted areas, while leaving the untargeted muscles free for normal facial expression. Dysport is used to reduce contraction of muscles that cause frown lines and wrinkles.

Saturday saw the first ever Boeing 777 crash to include a fatality, but investigators are still analyzing data recovered from the Asiana Airlines Flight 214 black box and cockpit recordings to discover what exactly went wrong.
What has been uncovered is amateur video footage of the crash taking place. Fred Hayes just happened to be recording planes taking off and landing at the San Francisco airport from about a mile away. What he captured can be watched below:
It looks as though the aircraft crashed because it was going much slower than required on its final approach, to the point where the 777 was in danger of aerodynamic stall. The speed the 777 should have been going is 137 knots, and the cockpit recordings include the crew confirming this speed. However, the 777 was actually traveling much slower.
The cabin crew attempted to go around for another try at the very last second after a stall warning, but were too late and the tail hit a seawall and was ripped off. Of the 307 people on board, 2 were killed, 182 were injured, and 123 walked away from the crash. Everyone agrees it could have been a lot worse.
It is too early to draw any conclusion as to where the fault lies for this accident. The experience of the pilot has been questioned, having only spent 43 hours flying a 777, but he has over 10,000 hours flying time logged over his career. Then there's the fact the Instrument Landing System (ILS) was turned off at the airport. It helps pilots on approach to the runway. It may have been a combination of factors, but the investigation team will continue to look at the data and hopefully tell us exactly what went wrong in the coming days.

There have been many valiant but inadequate attempts to create captivating surf movies from the land of frozen, coffee colored drainers. It's tough to actually capture and emit on film the atmosphere that engulfs the New Jersey coastline and it's wave hungry surfers. Combine this with the long periods of flatness, which cause most New Jersey pros to travel a lot of the time, and we're left with the unfulfilling bag of projects to date.
Fear not though, as two films set to release this year look to fill the gaps. Though we've only seen the trailers so far, A Pleasant Surprise and Dark Fall both seem to be very promising at having captured the mindset of New Jersey surfers, and their connection with the Atlantic. Hopefully these films can break the Garden State surf movie barrier and show the surf world why every New Jersey charger swears by their homebreaks. In 2009 these movies should have you hearing more "YEAHS!" in thick accents than you can handle. -Ryan Brower
Kyle Pahlow's 16mm project, 'A Pleasant Surprise', looks to stamp it's mark on the East Coast surf film scene this year. For more on 'A Pleasant Surprise' head to apleasantsurprisefilm.com/.
Alex DePhillipo's 'A Dark Fall' is shot in HD and centers around on one of the best times to be a New Jersey surfer, fall. For more on 'A Dark Fall' head to darkfallthemovie.com.

The leaders of this school worked in partnership with "A Voice for the Voiceless" ministry where they understood from God the vision for more advocacy in the area of media, more specifically in video communication.
Throughout the last few years, the leaders Elinis and Jonathan Goodson have got trained and traveled to a few locations searching for an effective way to work and put together a curriculum to equip people in the area of video communication to advocate for justice.
Together they started a documentary series, "The Silent Side of the Coin", which intends to show the different sides of injustice issues in the world, addressing the problems and their causes.
For those that apply for this school, both students and staff, opportunities will be opened to work in collaboration with this vision. The goal is not to find the most media skilled people but those with a heart and passion willing to work hard to advocate for justice. If you have the heart we can teach you the skills.

The master of Castle Incarnadine is often described as an enigmatic fellow, with an even more enigmatic agenda. But, in order to understand the nature of the man, one must understand the nature of the castle itself, for the two are truly one and the same.
Castle Incarnadine is very much a real place, however shrouded in mystery its past may be. It appears to be a castle of blood red sandstone backing onto a sheer cliff, covered in gleaming towers and buildings. Searching for a door yields nothing, for the castle has no drawbridge, and no gates.
Like the fabled town of Sigil, entry to the dread castle is by portal, unlike that city however, the portals of Incarnadine are ever shifting, and completely unreliable. The castle is said to have an infinite number of portals, opening to the planes, to the lands below, as well as anywhere else that you may wish to go.
The lord and master of this castle is Ram, a tiefling warlock of untold power and secrecy. He alone may navigate the castle with ease, and he alone may command the portals. He is ever youthful, never growing even a year older, though the centuries drift past. Removed from the ability to truly discern the passage of time, he is trapped in an endless present, ever aware of the past, but incapable of feeling any form of regard for the future.
Ram rules no lands, and holds no income from the surrounding lands. He and his castle simply are, an immovable and immeasurable part of their surroundings. Despite a lack of funds, or even major economy, Ram and those he entertains never want for food, water, or any amenities. Recognized by the local major powers as a neutral body, Ram and Castle Incarnadine are often called upon to host peace treaties and delegations, though he makes sure to warn his guests of the castle's deceptive nature.
Ram's history is long, but his origins are strangest of all. Once a powerful human warlock from millennia past, he changed himself into a great and terrible beast, neither smoke nor substance, all consuming and unfathomable to mortal eyes, in a bid to conquer the world. In doing so, he lost control of the spell, becoming the terrible aberrant his magic had created. Decieved by an opposing mage, his form was bound into the substance of the castle, and his mortal form forever twisted by the dire magics he had once wrought.
Cursed to remain forever, untouched by time, until he had fully absolved himself of the deeds that he had wrought, Ram works tirelessly to aid those in need, in the hopes of finally dying, freed from his dual existence as castle and lord.
These days, Ram's past is far behind him, and he scarcely gives it a second thought. Though ever polite and kind, his concepts of danger, logic, and time are skewed by the aberrant nature of his second form. He is described as aloof, though well meaning, subject to a set of mad laws that include only himself in their design.

Alexion's development programs focus on four core therapeutic areas: hematology, nephrology, neurology, and metabolic disorders. We are leveraging our global leadership in complement biology to expand Soliris® into new indications within these areas, while driving continued innovation with ALXN1210, our investigational long-acting C5 inhibitor, and WTX101 for Wilson disease. We are also seeking business development opportunities to strengthen our clinical-stage pipeline in the four core areas.
Learn more about our current development programs below.
Soliris® (eculizumab) for Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD) | See Clinical Trials
Alexion has completed enrollment in the PREVENT (Prevention of Relapses and EValuation of Eculizumab in NMO Treatment) study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Soliris® as a potential treatment for patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). NMOSD is a life-threatening, ultra-rare autoimmune neurological disorder in which complement activation by antibodies against aquaporin-4 on astrocyte cell surfaces causes damage in the central nervous system, including the spinal cord and optic nerve.1-3 The disease leads to severe weakness, paralysis, respiratory failure, loss of bowel and bladder function, blindness and premature death. Most patients experience an unpredictable, relapsing course of disease where each individual attack adds to cumulative neurologic disability.4-8
ALXN1210 IV for Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) | See Clinical Trials
Alexion is evaluating ALXN1210, an investigational, long-acting C5 inhibitor, in patients with PNH, an ultra-rare blood disorder in which chronic, uncontrolled activation of complement, a component of the normal immune system, results in hemolysis (destruction of the patient's red blood cells). We have completed two Phase 3 studies in adults with PNH — one study in complement inhibitor treatment-naïve patients and one study in patients who were stable on Soliris®. A Phase 3 study in children and adolescents under the age of 18 who have PNH is currently underway.
ALXN1210 IV for Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS) | See Clinical Trials
Alexion is evaluating ALXN1210 administered intravenously every eight weeks in a Phase 3 trial of complement inhibitor treatment-naive adolescent and adult patients with aHUS, a genetic, chronic, ultra-rare disease associated with vital organ failure and premature death. The company has also initiated a Phase 3 trial in pediatric patients with aHUS.
ALXN1210 Subcutaneous | See Clinical Trials
Initial pharmacokinetic and tolerability data from a Phase I study in healthy volunteers support progressing the development of a subcutaneous formulation of ALXN1210. Based on discussions with regulators, Alexion plans to initiate a single, PK-based Phase 3 study of ALXN1210 delivered subcutaneously once per week to support registration in PNH and aHUS in late 2018. In December 2017, Alexion entered into an agreement with Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. that enables the Company to use Halozyme's ENHANZE® drug-delivery technology to develop a next-generation subcutaneous formulation of ALXN1210 to potentially further extend the dosing interval to once every two weeks or once per month.
WTX101 for Wilson Disease | See Clinical Trials
Alexion is evaluating WTX101 (bis-choline tetrathiomolybdate) in a Phase 3 clinical trial for the treatment of Wilson disease, a rare genetic disorder with devastating hepatic and neurological consequences for patients. WTX101 is a first-in-class oral copper-binding agent with a unique mechanism of action and ability to access and bind copper from serum and promote its removal from the liver.
Alexion is investigating new therapies that have the potential to transform patients' lives. Learn more about some of our key clinical studies.

The Bright Star Restaurant
This was a favorite eating establishment for Coach Bear Bryant and there is a lot of football memorabilia on display from players and other famous people like Sandra Bullock, who brought her father there to eat. As Jimmy was telling us goodbye last night, Lee Roy Jordan, who played for Alabama and then the Dallas Cowboys (and was inducted into the Hall of Fame), came in to eat. He and Jimmy are in the photo below.
They are known for fresh seafood, great steaks and delicious desserts, many with a Greek taste. One item on the menu that is popular is the snapper throats. Fresh seafood is brought up from the Gulf daily and hand cut there in the restaurant. My husband decided to try the fried snapper throats. The fish was very good, but there are a lot of bones, so if you don't like to pick fish bones try something else. There are many preparations to try!
Now, moving on to dessert. Our friends ordered the Baklava Cheesecake (shown below)....all I can say is WOW! I will be getting that next time!

Battery = Li-Ion 1000 mAh, standby 300 hours, talk time 3 hours
Released = November 2007THE latest handset in Nokia's 8800 premium series is only for the most demanding fashionista. The 8800 Sapphire Arte features a genuine sapphire gemstone as its navigational key and soft leather casing on the front and rear, but it also carries a price tag to match its elegant looks.
The slider design of the 8800 Sapphire Arte falls in line with the rest of the 8800 Series. On this model, both the keypad and controls have been improved, but there are still some issues. In particular, the navigational pad is quite small and it's easy to accidentally bump the side keys when you press the centre key. We also developed a habit of pressing the selection keys instead of the answer/end call keys and vice versa – both are close together and aren't clearly separated. In better news, the keypad has improved with slightly raised keys that provide good tactile feedback. Our only complaint is that the first row of keys is too close to the top half of the handset.
As far as looks go there is no doubting the Sapphire Arte's style. The handset feels superbly crafted and constructed, with its brown metal and glass design providing a feel of genuine quality and craftsmanship &8211; even if fingerprints on the display are an issue, despite Nokia's claim of an anti-fingerprint coating on the metal and glass. The smooth spring-operated slider is effortless to open and although the handset is quite heavy, it doesn't detract from its appeal. The soft brown leather pieces on the front and rear also add a nice touch, as does the chrome edging.
Two distinctive features set this phone apart, but they aren't all that innovative. Tapping the steel surface below the display makes an analogue clock appear on the screen, though the tapping wasn't as responsive as we'd have liked. Further, incoming calls can be silenced with the turn-to-mute feature – turning the handset screen-side down silences the ring.
In terms of features, we expected more from the Sapphire Arte considering its asking price, though Nokia has added 3G capabilities, a 3.2 megapixel camera and 1 gigabyte (GB) of internal memory as additions when compared to previous models. The 2" display with ambient light sensor is serviceable, even if we felt it could have been a little brighter, while the 1GB of internal memory is welcomed. Unfortunately, there is no memory card slot for extra storage.
A media player with stereo widening and equaliser settings does a reasonable job of multimedia playback, though an FM radio isn't part of the deal. The lack of a standard 3.5mm headphone jack is a downside – instead you'll have to use the included micro-USB headphones. Other features include support for Java, standard SMS, MMS, and e-mail messaging with T9 predictive text input and Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP.
The 3.2 megapixel camera features auto focus and 8x digital zoom, but the lack of flash deems night-time photography inadequate. The camera takes reasonable quality photos, but it obviously won't be replacing any stand-alone digital cameras. The 8800 Sapphire Arte also includes a front mounted VGA camera for video calling over 3G networks.
Nokia has retained its solid Series 40 menu system on the Sapphire Arte. A 3x3 grid system is used for the main menu with a simple list format for most sub menus. Nokia has also added an exclusive video and sound track from producer's Kruder & Dorfmeister.
Nokia also includes a matching BH-803 Bluetooth headset in the sales package, complete with noise cancellation and touch sensitive volume controls. There is also a desk stand and a leather pouch.

Yep I am finally back from my vacation with David Sceppa on the Capricorn Coast!
(yes i promise to post all my fishing adventures!)
Just had this question on the alias and thought i would get an early start on my blog:
Hi All,
I am developing a new app (primarily in c#, vs2005) that has a number of forms that need to be called from a VB6 app. When Daryl Burling told me about a new Powertool for VB that can be used to wrap and expose vb.net forms to vb6 (sounds like what I wanted). So I downloaded a copy, installed and tested with Access Basic (didnt have VB6 on my machine). It seemed to work pretty well, except whenever I made changes to the code I was getting locking problems with Access. After I had installed the PowerTool, there was a new item on the tools menu "Generate InteropForm Wrapper Classes", so I could add properties and events, regen and they would appear.
I then decided to install VB6 to make sure it worked. So hunted out VB6 install, and did it. Since the install, VS2005 has lost the menu items which allow me to generate the code. I can see the Add in is still installed in VS2005 – but can't get it to work. This may have had nothing to do with VB6 – but hey it will teach me for installing it.
Has anyone had any experience with the Add-In, or is there someway in VS2005 to get an addin to display on the menu again. I can't see any other way to get it to work.
In order to order to see the Tools >Generate InteropWrapper Classes menu you must be using a VBInterop Project (This appears under project template located at file>new project>Visual Basic>Windows and the area labeled "My Templates")

I'm looking forward to seeing the joint show by Cape Town artists, Gabrielle Raaff and Tamsyn Lancaster, opening at These Four Walls in Observatory on Friday 17 October.
Gabrielle Raaff (above) uses the traditional medium of watercolour on paper, as well as technology like Google Earth, to explore contemporary urban experiences, reflecting on issues of intimacy and isolation within the urban environment.
Tamsyn Lancaster's paintings draw attention to the animals present in our urban environment, using them as a means of noticing in amongst the bombardment of sensory stimulation in our urban settings.
The show is entitled Periphery: observations of urban life in paint, and is open until 7 November. See more details at the gallery website.

Do you have an "I Am" message for your teen today?
Mischa Martineau is the creator of I Am Who I Say I Am a personal training program for life success -- geared toward specific markets including bully prevention.
Posted by Laura at 1:09 PM
I don't have teens yet. My oldest is 6, and so far, all of my 3 older ones (youngest is just a baby) have every confidence in the world about themselves. However, I have, on several occasions, worried about their feelings about themselves in the future. I certainly didn't hate myself, but I wasn't bursting with confidence either. This was some good advice. Thanks.
I'm here from voiceboks off to leave an alexa review.
Hi, Debs Dealz stopping by to follow you via GFC. I love your site! I would like to invite you to check out by blog as well, and follow me back if you like, and/or like me on Facebook. We have daily blog hops...we would love to have you link up and participate!! We feel the blog hops are great ways to network with other bloggers, increase our followers and meet awesome people! We currently have the Wacky Wednesday Hop available to link up to. Stop on by!! Also, if you exchange buttons let me know!
Thanks, Debs Dealz
Hi...I subscribe to your blog...I think we've met through VoiceBok.:)
This is a must-read for all parents of tweens and teens...I've posted it to my Facebook and tweeted it. Thanks for having this wonderful guest whose advice is spot-on!
Wow - I LOVE this way of thinking. I'm afraid I haven't done as good a job with this as I should but I'm going to work on with my teens.
Great post!! I have been working on this with my children since they were born. I also work with it myself, changing the voices in my head. Last night my almost teenager ( will be 13 in Dec.) was so frustrated with himself because he failed a test. He is dyslexic and we have worked on his feelings, but he said yesterday, I just feel so stupid, I'm dumb" I let him talk it out a bit, and validated the feeling, "It is so frustrating, you worked hard, ect. Then we worked on reframing the thought, I'm really smart, I have a right to learn this stuff, I'm going for extra help, that is such a smart idea. It is hard to see your children struggle with the same feelings that you remember having, but it's great to have tools to help your teen and yourself!! Thanks for always having such great posts and suggestions!!
My girls are still very young, but one truth I want to start instilling in their minds is Psalm 139:14 "...I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful..." We should have as much respect for ourselves as our Creator does. It's my hope that if they know this truth deep within, when someone does start nit-picking at them those words will float back into their head and be a source of encouragement to know God made them perfect and wonderful and His opinion is the only one that ultimately matters.
Great post!
What a great way of thinking. I have raised my 6 kids and worked hard to instill confidence and kindness in them. We read books, sang songs, played games about self confidence and how to treat others. I've watched them become self assured adults who know how to be kind and compassionate. I love the way of teaching them to flip those negative thoughts.
Best post ever. I just read a book, it's called Mach II with your hair on fire. It touched on the same topic and how we can retrain our brains to be who we want to be and not base it on experiences we have dealt with in the past.
I was always complimented, I still am, but I always roll my eyes when people tell me I look pretty, or I'm beautiful. Now I'm learning, I AM beautiful so just say THANK YOU.
And I've told my husband to dial up the compliments, or else!
Here from members to remember frequent users list on vB.
Thanks for sharing with us on this important topic! I teach my kids that they are literal sons and daughters of God. If they know this, then it won't matter what others say about them.
This is so important given the mixed messages kids are getting today. Our teens need to build up their self esteem so they can make better choices in their lives. I loved this post!
Awesome! Thank you.
I think these thoughts can creep in at any age. I find my son saying things to himself like "I'm stupid" or whatever. And I'm trying to teach him how to nip it in the bud. Likewise, I've been trying to tell my super ego to shut up! Great advice in this post!
Gina from vB
This is such great information. I don't have teenagers yet, but it can be such a tumultuous time. It's important to help them learn how to internalize the good things. My son is only 7, but he takes so many things to heart. He always get stuck on the "bad things" that people say and do. I think we're going to have a hard time with him, trying to make sure that he internalizes only the good things. Thanks so much for this post. Stopping in from vB MTR!
I so believe in this, and really worked on it with my step-daughters. I think it made a difference for them, at least I hope so!! Liking yourself and turning negatives into positives is the key to life!

As a schoolboy in Jakarta, Barack Obama attended Muslim prayer sessions with his classmates against the wishes of his mother.Earlier this year, Indonesian filmmaker Damien Dematra announced his decision to make a film about President Obama's childhood years in Jakarta. The film's release was scheduled to coincide with the President's planned visit to Indonesia last June. [The President later postponed the visit.]
The US President's former grade three teacher [Mr. Effendi] said that Mr Obama - who was known as "Barry" when he attended the Menteng One school in Jakarta - studied the Koran and went to classes on Islam, despite the objections of Anne Dunham, a Roman Catholic...
Mr Obama attended classes on Islam while the Christians attended classes on Christianity, said Effendi. Barry, he said, was alone among the pupils in that he insisted on attending both.
"His mother did not like him learning Islam, although his father was a Muslim. Sometimes she came to the school; she was angry with the religious teacher and said 'Why did you teach him the Koran?'" said Effendi.
"But he kept going to the classes because he was interested in Islam. He would also join the other pupils for Muslim prayers."
The movie was expected to include scenes of a young Barack Obama prostrating [in prayer] in the direction of the Kaaba in Mecca, as well as reciting from the Koran.
Mr. Dematra said he had proof that Obama prayed in the manner of a Muslim and recited the Koran...
"Tomorrow we're going to finalize the movie script," Dematra said at the time, "including whether we'll show Obama praying or reciting from the Koran.""The movie is an account of the people around him, friends, neighbors, teachers, schoolmates," he said...
However, several weeks later, M. Dematra announced that the depiction of Obama praying toward Mecca would not be included in the film.
Mr. Dematra said that, upon receiving "input from various parties", he had decided not to include the prayer scenes in the film. Mr. Dematra did not identify the "various parties".
"Whether the decision to nix the prayer scenes was due to 'outside political pressure' or not," I noted at the time, "is likely to remain unknown."

Biostatistics for Non-Statistician | Seminar 2018
Start Date : June 25, 2018
End Date : June 26, 2018
Time : 9:00 am to6:00 pm
Phone : 800-447-9407
Email : firstname.lastname@example.com
Location :
407 Squire Rd, Revere, Massachusetts 02151, United States
Course "Biostatistics for the Non-Statistician" has been pre-approved by RAPS as eligible for up to 12 credits towards a participant's RAC recertification upon full completion.
Why should you attend:
Statistics is a useful decision-making tool in the clinical research arena. When working in a field where a p-value can determine the next steps on development of a drug or procedure, it is imperative that decision makers understand the theory and application of statistics.
Many statistical software's are now available to professionals. However, these software's were developed for statisticians and can often be daunting to non-statisticians. How do you know if you are pressing the right key, let alone performing the best test?
This seminar provides a non-mathematical introduction to biostatistics and is designed for non-statisticians. And it will benefit professionals who must understand and work with study design and interpretation of findings in a clinical or biotechnology setting.
The focus of the seminar is to give you the information and skills necessary to understand statistical concepts and findings as applies to clinical research, and to confidently convey the information to others.
Emphasis will be placed on the actual statistical (a) concepts, (b) application, and (c) interpretation, and not on mathematical formulas or actual data analysis. A basic understanding of statistics is desired, but not necessary.
Who will benefit:
- Physicians
- Clinical Research Associates

United States: The Upcoming H-1B Season: Planning Ahead is Key
It's not too soon to begin preparing for the FY 2018 H-1B filing season. Demand for H-1B quota numbers is expected to remain high next year. Starting early will help ensure that your organization is ready when the filing period begins on April 3, 2017.
The FY 2018 H-1B cap season will begin on Monday, April 3, 2017. Though the opening day of the filing period is still several months away, it is not too early for your organization to begin assessing H-1B needs and working with your Fragomen team to begin the process.
Demand for new H-1Bs reached unprecedented levels last season and is expected to remain high in the FY 2018 season. For FY 2017, USCIS received 236,000 petitions against the annual quota of 85,000. Some 151,000 petitions - more than half of all cap filings - did not win a quota number. Pent-up demand from last year, falling U.S. unemployment rates and steadier economic growth will mean continued tight competition for FY 2018 cap numbers.
High demand means that the quota is certain to be reached quickly. Starting your H-1B preparation early will ensure that your organization is ready to submit cap cases between April 3 and April 7, 2017. Cases must be received at USCIS during these crucial five business days to maximize your organization's chances of accessing the limited number of new H-1Bs available for FY 2018.
It's Not Too Soon to Start
Here are some important tasks your organization can do now to ensure readiness on April 3:
- Begin assessing your FY 2018 H-1B employment needs. Getting an early handle on your hiring needs and the approximate number of petitions to be filed will allow you to better manage budget and H-1B workload, and help you coordinate even more effectively with your Fragomen team.
- Get LCAs early. Once your organization has identified its hiring needs for next year, work with your Fragomen team to seek labor condition applications (LCAs) - mandatory for every H-1B petition - as soon as possible. We expect a surge of LCA filings in the months leading up to April 3, which could cause processing slowdowns at the Labor Department. Obtaining LCAs now will help your organization avoid these delays. Though there are a few drawbacks to filing LCAs early, including a shorter H-1B petition validity period, these downsides are far outweighed by the advantages of having LCAs in hand well in advance.
- Consider multislot LCAs. A single LCA can cover multiple employees in a specific occupation and worksite. If your organization has a genuine need for one, a multislot LCA can increase efficiencies during the busy cap season. It can also provide your organization with greater flexibility to respond to time-sensitive non-cap needs like relocating employees to new worksites and onboarding new hires who are porting from other H-1B employment.
- Start gathering necessary evidence. Work with your Fragomen team, corporate colleagues and H-1B candidates to gather company documents, academic transcripts, degrees and other essential evidence. These can take time to assemble. Missing or incomplete documents can mean delays or denials.
- Budget for higher government filing fees. Effective December 23, 2016, the USCIS filing fee for Form I-129, the nonimmigrant visa petition, will increase to $460, from $325, and the filing fee for Form I-539, change of nonimmigrant status for dependent family members will increase to $370, from $290. Your organization should take these changes into account when budgeting for FY 2018 H-1B cap expenses. Premium processing and other fees related to H-1B cap filings will not increase.
- Be prepared for changes in procedures and requirements. Last-minute changes in USCIS and Labor Department processes are always possible. Fragomen monitors these developments closely and will inform you about any new requirements.
This alert is for informational purposes only. If you have any questions about the H-1B filing process, please contact the immigration professional with whom you work at Fragomen.

Residents at Woodlands care home in Crowborough have taken part in a six week intergenerational project called 'Young at Heart' where they've met up with local babies, toddlers and parents.
Every Monday residents at the Sussex Housing & Care owned home, take part in a relaxed session which is run by Artytime which helps our residents live their later life to the full and builds meaningful community links with local people. Residents have the opportunity to socialise, sing and play with the children and have made good friends.
The project has been so successful that the group will continue to meet beyond the intial six week pilot project.
Denys Gage, resident at Woodlands said: "I had two girls myself so I've had my training with little ones! I think it's lovely, I really enjoy their visits. The older children chatted away with me and were particularly interested in my life, especially when I said I've met the Queen and been the goalkeeper for Manchester City. I think it's great to talk to the little ones and share my experiences.
I sing songs with the babies and when I recall the nursery rhymes it takes me back to being a young dad!"
Residents at Woodlands are keen to meet other local community groups so please get in touch if you'd like to visit our residents, whether it's for a chat, an activity or an outing – we'd love to hear from you. Please email email@example.com or call us on 01892 653178.

I'm done with Tumblr. I've been slowly purging social networks. In the past I've gotten rid of Facebook, Eyeem, and others I've already forgotten about. A few days ago I purged Tumblr. Honestly what was the point of it for me? I was just reposting what I was posting here. For what a duplicate of my site? Nah.
I'm down to 2 social networks. Twitter were I'll dump links to posts and respond to peoples questions about film and my work. Instagram where I'll post random photos from traveling and some work, and the only other "Social Network" I've signed up for is Ello. Which at the moment is not really captivating me. We'll see how that fairs out.

Our Five Favourite Sights in North Devon
Whether you're thinking of a week away or are interested in spending just a night or two in North Devon; there are many sights and sounds for you to take in. Many visitors are not aware of the multitude of fascinating sights. They often miss out due to their lack of awareness. However at Highcliffe house we have decided to supply you with a list of our five favourite sights in North Devon that we would recommend you take a look at before completing your stay.
Exmoor National Park
Exmoor National Park is made up of approximately 270 square miles of land and within this area there are a wide variety of habitats that encourage many different types of wildlife to breed in Exmoor National Park. This area is also perfect for those that enjoy taking photographs as there are many areas within the National Park that you may wish to remember for the rest of your days. There are also measured walks through this area for those that are not too fond of exploring the wilds on their own.
Coastal Paths and Walks
The coastal paths, guided tours and walks in North Devon are beautiful in the spring and the summer as the winds are light and refreshing. There are some beautiful views to be had from these coastal walk as you can watch the tide come in lazily brush against the shore; you can also choose several different difficulties for your walk. The difficulty of your walk depends upon the terrain that you choose and the length of the walk; however there's no need to hurry.
Dark Sky Reserve
The European Dark Sky Reserve in Devon is one of the best dark sky reserves across Europe as there are miles of land that do not produce light and therefore do not suffer from light pollution. If you're a keen astronomer or simply appreciate the night sky this is one of the places that you must visit whilst in Devon.
Dunster Castle
Dunster Castle is a wonderful historic site not far from Highcliffe House; this particular site is approximately a half hour drive. The ruined tower and medieval gate house offer an idea of the events that have occurred in this Castle's past. Although it's recommended that you ring the management at Dunster Castle before visiting to ensure that they are open.

Exmoor Owl and Hawk Centre
This is one for the wildlife lovers. At Exmoor Owl and Hank Centre you can get to grips with many different types of predatory bird. There is the chance to experience a number of bird shows. There's an indoor owl show, an outdoor flight display and the chance to watch vultures and eagles in action.

Electronic Claims Management Adoption to Save Providers $7.9B
Manual claims management transactions cost providers $4 more than electronic transaction, resulting in cost-saving opportunities through electronic adoption, CAQH reported.
Source: Thinkstock
- Healthcare providers could save about $7.9 billion annually by switching to automated claims management processes, particularly for prior authorizations, remittance advices, and claim attachment submissions, according to the 2016 CAQH Index.
The fourth annual report revealed that electronic adoption of claims-related administrative processes remained slow, resulting in significant cost-saving opportunities for providers. Electronic adoption among health plans only grew between 1 and 8 percent in 2015.
However, manual claims management processes cost providers $4 more than equivalent electronic transactions, CAQH reported.
Out of the seven claims management processes – claims submission, eligibility and verification, prior authorization, claims status inquiry, claim reimbursement, remittance advice, and claim attachments – prior authorization was the area with the greatest potential for reducing costs for providers.

On average, providers spent $7.50 on manual prior authorizations in 2015. By transitioning to automated prior authorizations, providers could save $5.61 per transaction, resulting in $4.3 billion in total potential healthcare savings.
Despite being the greatest cost-saving area, electronic prior authorization submission saw the most rapid adoption rate (8 percent) in 2015. As a result, full electronic prior authorization adoption reached 18 percent.
The other claims management process most opportune for cost reductions was claim remittance advice. Providers spent $5.69 per manual claims remittance advice in 2015, but automating the process could reduce costs by $4.74.
Most claims remittance advices, however, were sent via mail in 2015. Although one-third of the advices were manually sent, health plans boasted 55 percent electronic claims remittance advice adoption. Electronic adoption also increased by 4 percentage points from 2014.
Rounding out the top three cost-savings opportunities for providers was claim attachments. About 94 percent of supplemental claims submission documents, such as Certificates of Medical Necessity, operative reports, and discharge summaries, were manually submitted in 2015.

But each manual submission equated to about $5.25 per transaction for providers. By automating claim attachment submissions, providers could save $4.08 per transaction.
CAQH also noted that the overall cost-saving potential for the healthcare industry was over $1 billion more compared to last year's estimates because the organization recently added claim attachment data to its study.
In addition to claims management cost savings, CAQH also reported that providers could make their workflows more efficient by automating processes. On average, providers spent about 8.5 more minutes on performing manual claims management processes compared to electronic transactions.
As a result, a single claim that required six out of the seven claims management processes studied would take up 51 more minutes of provider time if manually handled.

"This time could be used more efficiently, on patient care or other business needs, particularly in settings where clinical staff are involved in conducting these business processes," the report stated.
Under fully automated claims management processes, CAQH estimated that providers could save about 1.1 million labor hours per year.
In addition to saving time on manual transactions, an automated claims management solution could also help providers save time on other administrative tasks, such as navigating different payer claims submission requirements.
"Keeping up with all the diagnostic codes and different insurance policies can be exhausting, but there are many software providers that will automatically update codes and requirements," Michelle Tohill, Director of Revenue Cycle Management at Bonafide Management Systems, stated in June 2016. "This cuts down on your research time, allowing your billing team to spend more time double-checking claims to make sure they meet every single requirement."
To help providers realize claims management savings, CAQH released three stakeholder considerations for boosting electronic adoption. The suggestions included sharing best practices performing targeted efforts to eliminate adoption barriers, and conducting systematic standards, codes, operating rules, and policies evaluations.
Healthcare stakeholders should distribute best practices for electronic claims management implementation, the organization recommended.
"Given the variable adoption reported by participating health plans, it is critical that entities share and adopt best practices to further drive adoption, as some entities are excelling compared to others," wrote CAQH.
"Industry and government entities must collaborate to provide ongoing outreach and education for all HIPAA-covered and non-HIPAA-covered entities about the value of, and immediate need for, adoption of electronic transactions, reduction of manual processes and compliance with standards and operating rules," the organization continued.
CAQH also suggested industry-led initiatives to overcome electronic claims management adoption barriers. Both providers and health plans identified cost of implementation as a top barrier to adopting electronic processes. However, automated claims management processes could be worth the investment, according to the organization's findings.
"Industry stakeholders should consider innovative investments, including how financial incentives could be applied, or how stakeholders could more actively conduct cost-benefit analyses to demonstrate the value of adoption," suggested CAQH.
Vendors should also be a part of the push to reduce adoption barriers because many providers use practice management systems or trading partners for claims management transactions. CAQH noted that some vendors charge more for HIPAA-compliant services and delay necessary data or infrastructure updates. Consequently, some providers have hesitated to adopt electronic methods.
To resolve vendor barriers, CAQH suggested that vendors "ensure their products offer integrated, regulation-compliant electronic transactions on a timely basis; certification of practice management systems can help with this transition."
However, health plans and providers should also ask for the requirements when contracting with the vendor.
Healthcare stakeholders should also conduct regular business processes reviews to identify areas for improvement, added CAQH. As part of the reviews, stakeholders should develop an evaluation schedule for updating standards, codes, operating rules, and policies.
"Administrative simplification must be an ongoing improvement process," stated the report. "As such, industry stakeholders should embrace ongoing, proactive maintenance that is built into regulations, rather than wait for new mandates."

I love animals and I think that they can have such a powerful and positive effect on children and adults alike. These creatures teach us so much about themselves and the world around us, but at the same time we learn about ourselves. Sure my kids love fairies and princesses, but when my children have an option to pick out books at the library, every time they choose books about reptiles or animals. The reason they give for their selection is that they want to learn. Clearly to them animals make learning fun and what parent would knock their children for wanting to learn! :-) This is why I think this February is going to be an awesome month for families with the great new initiative that Family Channel is rolling out.
"This February, Family Channel and Temple Street Productions are teaming up for a paws-itively un-furr-gettable programming event dedicated to kids, their furry best friends, and their scaly sidekicks. Kicking off Saturday, February 1, the month-long initiative, Project Pet, features brand new dynamic, original content every day, special pet-themed episodes and movies throughout the month, and exclusive online content at Family.ca.
From lizards riding skateboards to dogs blowing bubbles, Project Pet showcases some of the most amazing and adorable animal antics. Each day during the month of February, Family will premiere a variety of pet-themed interstitials including Pet Peeves, taking viewers on a journey inside the minds of pets, and Pets With Personality a short series depicting animals who exhibit hilarious humanlike behaviours. Every Friday at 8 p.m. ET/PT, kids can go on an exciting adventure with the courageous canine, Super Pup, as he discovers there is no treat too chewy or toy too squeaky, in the weekly short segment Super Pup Saves The World.
On Friday, February 7 and Friday, February 21, Fido fans will be treated to an evening of back-to-back episodes of Dog With A Blog, the live-action Family comedy series told from a canine perspective. The marathons, hosted by series' stars G Hannelius(Avery), Blake Michael (Tyler) and Francesca Capaldi (Chloe), will begin at 6 p.m. ET/PT. The furr-ific month also includes the network premiere of Beverly Hills Chihuahua on Friday, February 21 at 8 p.m. ET/PT, starring the voice of Drew Barrymore (Curious George) as Chloe, a ritzy Beverly Hills chihuahua who finds herself lost while on vacation in Mexico. Other family flicks that will air as part of the Project Pet lineup include Garfield: a Tail of Two Kitties; Finn on the Fly; Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2; andBeverly Hills Chihuahua 3.
The animal adventures continue at Family.ca/projectpet where pet lovers can play a variety of pet-themed games and watch all ofProject Pet's videos. While there, visitors can meet Family's brand new pet goldfish, Hank, and play his all-new game; plus, see what he's been up to every day in the web exclusive series Hank's Tank. Beginning February 14, kids can submit videos of the pets doing cool tricks for a chance to be featured on the website with their pet! The dedicated supersite launches February 1."
