Eye Hospitals in Telangana
Centre for Sight Hyderabad is a renowned ophthalmology facility that has been delivering best-in-class eye care services to the population of Hyderabad for many years now. The highly trusted surgeons and ophthalmologists here have catered to the visual needs of more than 3,50,000 people until now.
The dedicated diagnosis and treatment services of the four hospitals - Banjara Hills, Kukatpally, Nampally, Basheerbagh, have restored the vision of several lives under the supervision and expertise of Dr Santosh. Our patrons and patients have been a constant pillar of support who have helped us in pursuing our goal of giving people the care that their eyes deserve.
LASIK & SMILE in Hyderabad
All four of our hospitals in Hyderabad specialize in providing the patients with the most advanced surgeries to lead specs-free life - LASIK Refractive Surgery & SMILE. Both procedures follow the best quality standards and immediate results.
LASIK Refractive Surgery treats refractive errors like myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism to help people get a clearer vision. Therefore, forever making them free of contact lenses or prescription glasses. Their procedure requires the creation of the corneal flap.
On the other hand, Small Incision Lenticule Extraction i.e. SMILE utilizes only one laser femtosecond to create 2-4 millimetres long incision eliminating the need of corneal flap creation. This minimally invasive procedure is currently the best one available for blade-free vision correction.
Trusted Hospital for All Vision Problems
The top ophthalmologists, surgeons, paramedic staff, and best diagnostic & treatment facilities come together under these 4 roofs to give you the eye care you truly deserve. We take true pleasure in saying that families here have trusted us with the care of their and their loved one's eyes against vision-threatening conditions like Cataract, Glaucoma, Keratoconus, Diabetic Retinopathy, Age Macular Degeneration, Retinal Detachment, Uveitis, and Corneal Transplant.
Dr Mahipal S. Sachdev founded Centre for Sight and with his sturdy team of professionals has a vision of providing the people of Hyderabad with most advanced vision care at economical cost.
Caring for your little one's eyes
The Centre for Sight hospitals in Hyderabad understands that a child's eyes need a more delicate level of care and service than that compared to the adults. That's why our best pediatric ophthalmologists attend children's visual needs with great precision. The finest infrastructure is available in these four hospitals to go a step further. The compassionate doctors take charge from checkup and until treatment make sure that your child is able to see clearly. Our professional integrity and latest modern technology enable us to provide your beloved children with the eye care they deserve.
Hyderabad & Centre For Sight Locations

The city has become a trade and commerce hub plus information technology (IT) international centre. Textiles and pharmaceuticals manufacturing, IT service activities, and tourism are the primary contributors to the rising economy of this city. Telangana's capital is also known for the Tollywood industry here i.e. Telugu-language films.

After being in this city for a few years, Centre for Sight expanded its presence to reach to the people living in the central and north zone of Hyderabad. The list of the areas that we operate in is as follows.
Centre for Sight, Eye Hospital in Banjara Hills (Central Zone)
This central zone of Hyderabad homes upscales neighbourhoods with sprawling endless venues of dining and entertainment. Amongst all these areas, Banjara Hills is considered as the urban commercial centre of the city. Earlier, it was one of the least inhabited. Just a few nizam's royal members lived there. Now, it is the costliest zip code of India. Nearby there is a Banjara Lake. Most well-known hotels here are Taj Krishna, Taj Banjara and Taj Deccan. The malls Zing Design, Alcazar, Ohri's, Midtown. City Center and GVK One add to the glamour quotient of this area. Along with all these big names, Jalagam Vengal Rao Park also gives this locality its own charm.

Our centre is easy-to-find and available at your services on just a single appointment book via telephone or website.
Centre for Sight, Eye Hospital in Basheerbagh (South Central Zone)
Proximity to the poshest areas of the central zone of Hyderabad makes Basheerbagh an important city centre. On the periphery of Hussain Sagar Lake, it also has the Bashir Bagh Palace on its ground. Numerous jewellery shops and endless shopping malls do business here while renowned movie theatres keep the residents entertained. Imminent government office buildings like AP Tourism Office, Ayakar Bhawan, Central Excise & Customs Office etc are also located here. It is also a sports hub for Hyderabad people. Multipurpose L.B Stadium here is used for athletics and football. This stadium has also hosted many international cricket matches.
Bus connectivity helps this central area stay connected to all other parts of Secunderabad and Hyderabad. Most common forms of transport here are taxis and autos. Nearest train station being Nampally that falls just one kilometre away for this area.
Amidst such commercial activities, the Centre for Sight hospital of Basheerbagh has succeeded in helping people maintain their vision against computer vision syndrome. The world-renowned surgeons have also by far freed many lives from spectacles with the advanced surgery options of LASIK and SMILE. If residing in this same area and want to get rid of spectacles too, know more. Once booked an appointment with us for a checkup, you can easily find us on google maps.

Nampally, Hyderabad's Inner City, got its name from Nekh-Nam-Khan - a Persian Diwan. This area is even a Mandal. Largest landmark here being Hyderabad Deccan Station a.k.a Nampally Railway Station.
This locality is connected by TSRTC buses, rail and roads. Seven-seaters, taxis and autos take to everywhere in Hyderabad. While the railway station here provides direct connectivity with other parts within the state as well as the country.
Few of the Nampally most famous landmarks being Jubilee Hall, Nampally Sarai, Numaish (Exhibition Grounds), Telangana Board of Intermediate Education, Moazzam Jahi Market, Public Gardens, Dargah Yousufain, Telangana State Archaeology Museum, and Centre for DNA Fingerprinting & Diagnostics.
The Centre for Sight hospital at Nampally has been rendering its services to the good people of this area for some years now. Families have been treated to its compassionate and thorough approach towards the treatment of cataract, glaucoma, retina & uvea diseases and for ocular oncology and oculoplasty. Acquisition of the latest technology for all these treatments and our team of highly qualified doctors have only helped this hospital build more goodwill over the years.
Centre for Sight, Eye Hospital in Kukatpally (North Zone)
Popular for its eateries and clothing, Kukatpally is one of Hyderabad's busiest business hubs. This area was primarily an industrial corridor. However with the presence of Kukatpally Housing Board and Mumbai National Highway here now, both retail and commercial activities are booming. Small scale industries are thriving on its soil too.
NRIs & IT people prefer settling in this locality due to its nearness to Hitech city. The current population density here is of a magnanimous 33,076 individuals per km². Before its merger into 'Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation', Kukatpally was a municipality.

Meet the CX Network team: Editor-in-Chief – Chanice Henry
You may already be familiar with a few of the faces behind CX Network through our newsletter, email and social updates, and the authors referenced in our content pieces.
These superstars work tirelessly behind-the-scenes to provide you with insightful content, podcast episodes, thought leadership and groundbreaking virtual events.
This week we introduce you to the new Editor-in-Chief of CX Network, Chanice Henry.
SEE ALSO: Meet CX Network's Advisory Board
Tell us three things about you.
1. I enjoy unwinding after a long week with a spot of yoga (if that fails, perhaps a nice glass of red).
2. I spent a little time working at the BBC and The Times not so long ago.
3. I'm a foodie – not in an elitist kind of way, but more of a 'are you going to finish that?' kind of way…
What do you do at CX Network?
I'm the Editor-in-Chief of the network so I lead the editorial direction of the portal to inform, educate and (with any luck!) inspire customer experience professionals. For the last three years I acted as the Editor of Pharma IQ and Pharma logistics IQ, which was a similar gig but for medical professionals.
How do you define success?
Having a meaningful impact on others for the better.
SEE ALSO: Meet the CX Network team: Content Producer Adam Muspratt
Who has been an inspiration in your career?
So in terms of inspirations it seems former CX Network Editor Zarina de Ruiter is one away from a hat-trick! Yes our Community Manager Patrick beat me to it in his interview, but I'm going to stand by this statement! I worked alongside Zarina for many years and was very impressed by the magic she brought to CX Network as she built it into the platform it is today. I have listed a couple of those impressive items below:
1. The Global State of Customer Experience Research Series: 2017
2. Customer Experience 2017... in 2 Minutes
Love leadership interviews? Check out our weekly podcast series with host Seth Adler! For a taster, here is his recent interview with the Director of Customer Services Product Development at Lufthansa
What is the best customer experience you have ever received?
The morning after the painful reality check that football was in fact not 'coming home' for us Brits, my mood was lifted when I found an email in my inbox from Uber Eats offering a very generous promotion involving free breakfast food I had ordered before. The email had the subject line: 'We know ... it's a tough morning'. The apt messaging made me smile as it gave the effect that I was understood as an individual and besides, free food can fix a lot of things.
What did you want to be when you were younger?
After being hooked to watching the epic film feature Free Willy on loop for a few years I decided I wanted to be a marine mammal trainer. Living in the UK pretty much snuffed out that opportunity. After seeing the Blackfish documentary years on I realized maybe that was for the best…
What do you consider your greatest achievement?
I was pretty happy when I produced the most successful piece on record for Pharma IQ's biggest conference – Temperature Controlled Logistics
SEE ALSO: Meet The CX Network Team: Community Manager Patrick Gallagher
If you could change one thing from your past, what would you do differently?
Try not to worry about or control (often in vain!) what the future holds. All you can do is make the best decisions in the situations you are faced with and go from there.
What is your motto?
My faith gives me a lot of strength day-to-day as we can face quite a lot of darkness in today's world. The bible features a notion I really like: Do everything in love.
Finally, where do you see yourself in 10 years time?
My best guess would be: using editorial to help drive others forward in what they do and the heights they can achieve.

How to Find My Virgin Mobile Unlock Code (7 Steps)by Palmer Owyoung
If you purchased your mobile phone through Virgin, it came locked to that network. This means that you cannot use your phone with a different mobile service provider until you get an unlock code. This can be very inconvenient if you find yourself traveling abroad, as you will have to pay high roaming fees to use the phone on your trip.
Step 1
Call your Virgin Mobile customer service representative. Dial 1-888-322-1122 if you are in the United States, or visit the company's website (see references). Ask them for an unlock code for your mobile phone. If you have completed your service contract, they may give it to you, although they are under no obligation to do so. If they don't, you can purchase a code.
Step 2
Dial *#06# on your phone. This will bring up your IMEI (international mobile equipment identification) number. This is a 15-digit code that phone companies use to identify your phone.
Step 3
Look for an online store that sells unlock codes, such as UnlockToTalk and GSMLiberty.
Step 4
Type your IMEI number into the website. Choose the make and model of your phone from the drop-down menus and then select Virgin Mobile as your service provider. Enter your credit card or PayPal information and a valid e-mail address.
Step 5
Retrieve the unlock code from your e-mail and write it down .
Step 6
Turn off your Virgin Mobile phone and take out the SIM (subscriber identity module) card. This is the white rectangular plastic card underneath your phone's battery. Insert a SIM card from a different network and turn your phone back on. You will get a message requesting an unlock code.
Type in the code that you received in the e-mail. Press "OK" and your phone will restart. When it comes back on you will see the name of the new network at the top of your phone's screen.

The video for the track "Three White Horses†from Andrew Bird's Hands of Glory (out now on Mom + Pop Music) has premiered on VEVO and can now be streamed at http://youtu.be/3yzNN3Zukl8. Bird celebrated the new record's launch with an acoustic "old-time†performance of "If I Needed You†on "The Late Show with David Letterman†featuring special guest Tift Merritt and bassist Alan Hampton. The performance took place in an empty Ed Sullivan Theater due to Hurricane Sandy and can be seen here.
A companion piece to the critically acclaimed full-length record Break It Yourself, the new record is the product of a pair of recording sessions prompted by the overwhelming response to Bird's "old-time†sets on recent tours. Reinterpreting songs from Break It Yourself and featuring covers of classic country tunes, these "old-time†performances find Bird and his full band playing to a single microphone with an entirely acoustic setup. Drawing inspiration from these sets, Hands of Glory features two brand new original tracks, a new interpretation of "Orpheo Looks Back†from Break It Yourself and covers of Van Zandt, the Handsome Family, Alpha Consumer and others.
"The past three summers now we've had these band get-togethers at my barn in western Illinois,†Bird recalls. "They begin with little more pretense than to capture the way we make music together. After a few days sleeping, eating and jamming under one roof we get increasingly inspired and ambitious about what we're doing.†Of recording the new record, he notes that, "Hands of Glory begins with two songs we actually recorded in a church in Louisville on a day off on our July tour. The rest was recorded around a single microphone at the barn in August. We ended up putting the drums on the back porch. I hated to exile Martin like that but it just sounded better. 'Something Biblical' I started writing in July well into the severe drought that hit the Midwest this summer. I kept having dreams of a great flood. Nothing biblical—just a local deluge. The day we left the barn it rained pretty hard.â€
Bird has added more intimate solo "Gezelligheid†performances this winter, bringing them to Chicago's Fourth Presbyterian Church December 19-21 and, for the first time, New York's Riverside Church December 10-11. Appropriating a Dutch term that loosely translated means "cozy,†the performances concentrate mainly on instrumental violin pieces amplified only by Bird's signature giant Victrola horns. Bird notes, "What I hope to do with these shows is adapt my music completely to the atmosphere of the space and the season. I want the audience to be both lifted and comforted as we head into another cold and dark winter. I feel the space should be sacred so the audience can experience my music in a different atmosphere.†Bird will also be performing with his full band at Minneapolis' State Theater December 17; See below for a list of dates.
In addition to the North American dates, Bird will be collaborating with Songkick and their new crowdsourcing platform Detour to launch the first fan-funded tour of Latin America February 17-28. Fans in 12 cities across nine countries will be given the power to decide which cities he performs in as well as aid in funding the concerts. For additional information go to http://detour.songkick.com/andrewbird.
Produced by Bird, Break It Yourself was recorded at his barn in Western Illinois near the banks of the Mississippi River. Paired with the album's deluxe CD package is the DVD Here's What Happened. The thirty-minute performance film was shot at Bird's barn during the recording of the album and captures the energy of the room in which the new release was conceived. Footage from Here's What Happened of Bird performing the track "Eyeoneye†can be viewed at http://bit.ly/GNr9gi.

A metric century and a side trip to San Juanico
As sailors, we are well accustomed to making last-minute travel decisions based upon new or updated weather data. As we sat enjoying ourselves in the oasis of San Ignacio, thoughts of how the threat of rain (yes, we check the weather when we have internet) might affect our upcoming ride across some dry lake beds weighed our minds. Should we stick to our original plan and enjoy a day or 2 off at the Casa del Ciclista, or should we get a jump on the weather, make a late afternoon push out of town, and try to beat the rain, should it decide to make an appearance?
We had a great camping spot at the Casa del Ciclista.
Free Wifi!
The beautiful lagoon we passed on the way back into San Ignacio.
Ultimately, we opted to make break for it, and despite the fact that we saw no rain, the decision worked out well for us. We were sad to leave the Casa del Ciclista, especially having only just set up camp there a few hours earlier, but thoughts of pushing our bikes through thick mud won out over rest.
Date and cheese pie, a local specialty. Not bad. When in doubt, always try the local favorites!
Rain threatens!
Even though we were thinking that we might only ride for an hour or so, the long days of Baja allowed us to put in over 35km before stopping for the night. Finding a place to camp was a bit challenging given that we were following a paved road with no discernible shelter for miles and miles. As luck would have it, not too long after the sun had set, we found a small dirt track leading away from the paved road, and following it took us to a beautiful little camp site.
After the sun had set, both Rebecca and I were getting concerned about riding on a paved road in the dark, only to realize that we both still had our sunglasses on!
Saying goodbye to the sun.
Setting up camp.
The sun had already said goodbye for another day.
A perfect camping spot, well out of sight of the main road.
Our Metric Century!
Cyclists use the term Century to describe a 100 mile ride. As we are Canadians, it seems only fitting that we choose to make mention of a Metric Century, a 100km ride, the distance that, with some work, we rode the next day. Of course, much more than our physical conditioning, it is the trail conditions that allow us to put in long days. Beginning the day's ride on asphalt helped us to get started, but then we followed dry lake beds for almost the entire remainder of the day, allowing the miles to tick by rapidly.
We are so competitive that we actually passed by some awesome campsites just to complete the 100km, a distance that we knew would not soon be repeated. When it did come time to look for a spot to camp, we ran into a similar challenge as the day before. It's pretty hard to hide a tent when the tallest bush around is only a foot or two high!
In season, this is a popular whale watching destination.
I wonder how much the tide changes here.
Driving on water!
Another fantastic breakfast location!
This is where the day's ride really started to get fun!
Snow? No, salt!
Reminds me of pics we have seen of Bolivia.
"…with luck, prevailing winds will propel you across this unique landscape with little effort." – Baja Divide Route Guide
Nope, we had a strong head wind alternated with a cross wind!
Practicing for the salt flats of Bolivia!
We were happy this cloud was down wind of us.
I'm not sure the original intent of these poles but some large birds are making good use of them for nests.
A car stopped and unsolicited, gave us this water and chips. How cool is that?
We never did see any rain.
In a small "restaurant" in El Datil. Animals love me!
Another cow standoff. This happens frequently.
Rugged landscape.
Hills in the distance.
We began the day yesterday with a good breakfast before breaking camp, and then set off on a typical Baja gravel road. Note that typical means washboarded to f#%^&! As my butt was already sore from the big ride the day before, the extra bouncing was not appreciated. We had 16km to ride until we would come to a decision point: do we make a 90 degree right turn and head up the "road" towards Mulege, or do we continue to ride along the main road to San Juanico?
The turn off to Mulege is just up ahead.
Decisions, decisions.
The "road" to Mulege. I bet that it gets a lot worse!
Even before we made it outside of the US, we had people telling us that we must visit San Juanico. San Juanico, or Scorpion Bay, is apparently a surfers' paradise, and since we're in no great rush to complete the Baja Divide, we decided to take a bit of a detour and visit this must-see destination. Of course, not being on the route, we had next to no intel about the road to get there. It did show up on our GPS, and we could estimate the distance from our map, but that's about it.
I put out some feelers on Facebook asking if anyone had visited there before. No one mentioned the road itself. We asked a couple of drivers, and they said the road was good. We looked at the topographic lines on our GPS, and they showed no great elevation change. Since we were beginning at 300 feet and ultimately traveling to sea level, it should be down hill, right? Ha!
Water in the distance but at certain times, I bet all the the foreground is covered in water.
We were resting under this tree when a couple stopped and asked if we wanted some Tecates (beers)!
From the turn off at La Ballena, the road to San Juanico is exactly 24km long. It's true, there is no great elevation change, but it is a non-stop, and I mean NON-STOP, roller coaster ride, up and down, up and down. Because the elevation changes only 50-100 feet with each hill, they don't show up on the topo lines. They do, however, show up on your legs. Additionally, the road gets a fair amount of traffic, often fast moving, and thus it has turned into one of the top 5 most washboarded roads that we have ridden thus far. If we had known all this, would we still have taken the side trip? Yes, but the road sucked, and if we can swing it, we'll hitch a ride back to La Ballena where we will rejoin the Divide route.
All that aside, San Juanico is, as promised, a beautiful spot. We were greeted upon arrival by a mile-long stretch of sand and turquoise blue water. Being a surfer spot, the vibe of the town is, as you might imagine, quite chill, and there are plenty of Americans here, presumably on surfing holidays. We spent last night camped on the big beach shown in the cover photo with no one anywhere near us. We did have one visitor during the night though, a cat whose persistent meowing woke me out of a deep sleep!
Last night's beachside camping spot. Very windy, and the tent pegs weren't holding well in the sand. We have the tent tied to the bikes to help.
Trying to cook without getting sand blown into the food.
The San Juanico "highway." 🙂
In order to get ourselves sorted for our trip to Mulege, we have booked ourselves into another 350 peso ($20.00 US) hotel room for the night. Rebecca just returned from the store with food, and we'll be working to fill all of our water receptacles for the 3-day long trip. Unfortunately, we were warned in the trail notes that the upcoming leg is the toughest of the entire Baja Divide. That's a bit concerning as we've had some incredibly tough legs so far. The only thing that makes me feel a bit better about that is the knowledge that we both (but especially me – Rebecca was always in great shape) are in much better riding condition than when we first set off on this trip a month and a half ago.
Our Metric Century!
Trip Stats:
- San Ignacio to Wild Camping: 37.4 km, 2:52 hours
- Wild Camping to Wild Camping: 103.8 km, 12:57 hours
- Wild Camping to San Juanico: 40.2 km, 5:21 hours

We are happy to announce that Texas topped the list of Best Places to Live 2018 by Money magazine, due in part to the vast amounts of sunshine and great housing. Many venture to Cinnamon Shore for similar reasons—sunny days on the Texas coast and the value of our beautiful homes. We're honored to be a part of the equation that makes our state so great and sought out by others.
Money states, "When you think of Texas, you may think of football and barbecue. You should also think of an unbeatable combination of affordable homes and strong job growth." It's the state's strong economy that allows leisure time on the coast. Money also cited our incredible weather, stating, "With 232 clear days per year—the equivalent of 7.6 straight months of sunny skies—and relatively mild winters, there's more time to enjoy the activities that, in other states, are confined to summer months." Yes, our beaches beckon on such sunny days. But even the rainy ones are fantastic at Cinnamon Shore.
Looking Ahead
As we look to the future, we're thrilled with the launch of Cinnamon Shore South at The Grand Unveiling next weekend. There's still time to join us for one-time-only Founders Pricing as we release our first homesites at this amazing event! Book an appointment now and schedule your property tour on October 6th and learn more about how our new seaside village will continue to build on the legacy we've established at Cinnamon Shore.
It's a legacy rooted in our first homeowners' decisions to join us at Cinnamon Shore more than decade ago. A legacy proved when our community–the first New Urban community on the Texas Coast–was selected by premier magazines for their show homes.
(2015 Coastal Living Home, Main Living Room)
From the 2009 Southern Living Idea House to the 2015 Coastal Living Idea House and the Texas Monthly Gulf Coast Show Home in 2017, experts in home design and community development have recognized Cinnamon Shore as exceptional.
(2017 Texas Monthly Home)
We're proud of what we've built and what we're building, and if you'd like to be a member of our community, join us at The Grand Unveiling of Cinnamon Shore South next weekend.
There's a full weekend of events and festivities, including a fantastic lineup of music – Southtown on Friday night and Mark McKinney on Saturday night.
(Mark McKinney)
Texas may rank as the best place to live, but we believe Cinnamon Shore is the best place on the Texas Coast to vacation!

Super-phenomena scoop physics Nobel
Breakthroughs in superconductors and superfluids have scooped the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physics. The award is shared by three theoreticians who did fundamental work in the 1950s and 1970s.
Their description of how superconductors interact with magnetic fields won Alexei Abrikosov, at the Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois, US, and Vitaly Ginzburg, at the PN Lebedev Physical Institute in Moscow, Russia, their awards.
The third share in the $1.3 million prize went to Anthony Leggett, at the University of Illinois in Urbana, US, for his work on superfluids. He worked out how atoms in superfluid Helium-3 must interact to allow the liquid its strange free-flowing behaviour.
The two super-phenomena are both quantum effects seen only at low temperature, when particles overcome their natural repulsion and pair up. Superconductors have zero resistance to current because electrons travel through them in twos, while superfluids flow without friction because the atoms inside them are paired.
Powerful magnets
Superconductors are now used in power cables and to make powerful magnets – such as those used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), for which the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded on Monday.
In these applications, the superconductors have to withstand strong magnetic fields generated by the currents that they carry. The fact that superconducting materials could do this was discovered by Abrikosov.
The superconductivity of many materials breaks down when a magnetic field penetrates them. But Abrikosov used a theory of superconductivity developed by Ginzburg to predict that this would not always be the case. Some superconductors should be able to carry magnetic field lines inside them without disturbing the flow of current.
Soon after, these "type-II" superconductors were discovered, pointing the way towards today's applications.
So controversial
Henrik Jensen, an expert in the theory of superconductors at Imperial College London, UK, says award of the Nobel prize for this super-science research is "fantastic".
He recounts that Abrikosov's work was so controversial in the 1950s that his supervisor, the respected physicist Lev Landau, at first refused to let him publish. Landau, who died in 1968, had worked with Ginzburg on the underlying theory.
Now, however, Jensen says there is no doubt that the theory is correct, making it safe for the Nobel Committee to award the prize: "The surprising thing is that they didn't get it 40 years ago – but that's always the case with the Nobels."
The theories are, however, enjoying a renaissance as scientists struggle to explain how high-temperature superconductors work. In 1987, the Nobel Prize in Physics went to the experimentalists that discovered these materials.
Anthony Leggett also lags experimentalists in receiving his prize. In 1996, three experimentalists shared the physics prize for their discovery of superfluidity in helium-3 in the early 1970s.
"After the prize was given to the experimentalists in 1996 I thought his chances were very slim," says Fernando Sols, from the Autonomous University of Madrid in Spain. He worked in Leggett's lab for four years and continues to collaborate with the scientist. "Now I think he will stand at the level he has always deserved."

Sadio Berahino is apparently disappointed with the treatment he received from Jeremy Peace, the West Bromwich Albion Chariman.
Berahino was desperate to complete a move to Tottenham but West Brom refused to play ball and Sadio Berahino was forced to stay at West Brom and the 22 year old is clearly unhappy with the treatment he received from Jeremy Peace. Berahino hit out at Peace on twitter after Peace told reporters that Berahino was not going anywhere. "Our position remains unchanged. The sale of this player is not on our agenda." Berahino had handed in a transfer request but it was declined by the club. Forcing the player to vent on the social network.
Sad how i cant say exactly how the club has treated me but i can officially say i will never play Jeremy Peace.
— Saido Berahino (@SBerahino) September 1, 2015
Berahino would still be looking to push a move away from West Brom through before the window closes after Tony Pulis told reporters that West Brom would be powerless to refuse a good enough offer for Berahino from Spurs

The Patek Philippe has been gracing the luxury sports watch industry for more than a century. The high performance and technology invested in the brand's products have been flawless all through the years. However, the Patek Philippe Aquanaut series was launched in 1997 with complex casing construction and a unique design. It was the genesis of what will be seen as a luxury sports watch heavyweight in the 21st century. The versatility of the Patek Philippe Aquanaut series is what gives it the edge compared to its rivals. It merges a sporty spirit with a royal elegance to make it an everyday watch.
Distinctive Aquanaut Features
Majority of watch connoisseurs regard Patek Philippe, a Geneva-based company, as a company with the most prestigious timepieces in the world. The Patek Philippe Aquanaut series has delivered models for everyone putting intricate details to distinguish between male and female watches. Most of the men's Aquanaut watches have a casing that measures 38-40.8 millimeters. On the other hand, the ladies' watches have a lovely case that measures 35.6 millimeters. The designs in the Aquanaut ladies' watch has additional features to portray a young spirit but an elegant and classy woman.
Although the Patek Philippe Aquanaut reminds most sport watch lovers of the excellent Nautilus, there are distinctive features that make it one of the best. The stylish tropical strap is one of the features that the Patek Philippe Aquanaut have maintained on all their models. It gives the timepieces the edge it needs to be both sporty and elegant. The strap is designed using a sturdy, easy to clean, and high-tech composite material.
The timepiece designed to resist UV rays, salt water, and waterproof up to a depth of 200 meters, and the materials are hypoallergenic. Ref. 5167/1A-001 is one of the models that also include stainless steel in its structure. So the next time you go ocean diving doesn't worry about rust or the salt water spoiling your timepiece. Other unique features in the Aquanaut series include distinctive numbers and desirable size indices.
The Aquanaut Travel Time
In 2011, the Patek Philippe Aquanaut launched the exquisite model in the series, Aquanaut Travel Time 5164A. The timepiece displays two time zones that run simultaneously, and it is easy to read home and local time. The two apertures and a fourth hand help you know which time zone you are reading. The timepiece enables you to adjust the GMT hand independently. The technology behind this timepiece made it scoop an award for the Best Travel Watch in 2011.
The Aquanaut series has been swimming in the shadows of the Nautilus for quite some time. However, when you firmly take details and cutting-edge technology that Aquanaut brings, then you will know it is a heavyweight in the industry. All of the Aquanaut is subtle, comfortable, and versatile. Although the prices of the Aquanaut can be a bit competitive when you love the Aquanaut you know the price does not stand in the way.

Shimmerspell by Kimberly Spencer
Summary: Jensen has no idea who she really is. She also has no idea that she should even be asking the question. It's not bad enough that her con artist sister keeps moving them from place to place and she's forced to move from one school to the next but she has to keep making friends. Her new friends at her new school though are faeries and Jensen finds herself in the middle of something she wants no part of. Which is really bad because she's one of them.
My Review: If you love fantasy creatures this is the novella for you. If you love a good Seelie/Unseelie war then this is really the novella for you. It has will o' wisps, brownies and banshees. In fact it has every fey creature I could think of.
It's a quick read and it's very pretty. It has a lot of beautiful descriptions of faeries and of all of the places Jensen has to go to get answers. There are a lot of scene changes and that was nice. Sometimes novella's about teens end up spending the entire time in a school setting. This novella takes the reader on quite the journey for how short it is. I liked that.
I felt for Jensen. She's abandoned by her sister and rescued by Liam the boy that likes her. He turns out to be a faerie. He has wings and everything. Her sisters final words to her were "whatever you do, don't take off your ring". That would have been enough for me to take it off right then and there but it takes Jensen a little while longer. The ring is key.
There is a creepy cemetery scene that of course was my favorite. The cemetery is home to creepy twins. I love creepy cemetery twins at Halloween. Is there anything better?
If you like television shows like Once Upon a Time or Sleepy Hollow you'll like this novella.
PG-13 The characters use adult language and by that I mean profanity not big words like Lanthanum.
If you think you'll like this novella then we think you'll like these books:

Like always I was at the chemist digging through the discounted make up bin when I came across a Maybelline mascara for $5. Who was I to say no! The Falsies Push Up Angel mascara sounded awesome and a little reminiscent of the Victorias Secret Angels (not that I like Victorias Secret. Boo!). Coonsidering this Mascara is normaly worth $20 I say bargain.
The mascara wand itself is wierd. It looks a bit like a rumble roller you'd see in a gym. The thing is though without bristles the wand never gets cakey and I've had no issue with clumping. The mascara also does exactly what it claims to and that is push your eyelashes out and up. They look 10 times larger and longer than they normally would. Going back to my normal Rimmel mascara I feel pretty disappointed in my trusty blue tube.
The only downside is that it's a little flakey and transfers slightly. I'm used to wearing waterproof mascara because my day involves a lot of sweating and I rub my eyes. Since this isn't a waterproof one I rub my eyes and get a little panda eye action happening. Also if you wet your face she runs like a noir movie poster. Definatly not wearing it to the wedding I'm attending one the weekend. This mascara also slightly flakes and I noticed that from a hard road test at work (all my make up cops a flogging at work). The flaking bothers me less because of how long and dark it makes my lashes look.
All in all if you're willing to deal with a little fall out this is an awesome mascara. I might not buy another tube unless they have a waterproof formula. If it does come in waterproof move over Rimmel there's a new bitch in town.

No, I'm not in Guatemala yet...
We're ORANGE!!!
What does ORANGE mean, you ask? It means a series of things have happened in the last 7 days: Isabella's birth mom gave her final consent, Bella has a new birth certificate with our last name on it, she has her passport, and all of these documents have been submitted to the U.S. Embassy in Guatemala. In turn, the Embassy has issued their approval for the 2nd DNA test. From what I hear, this is called ORANGE because the DNA authorization used to be issued on an orange piece of paper. Now it's issued electronically, so ORANGE is actually WHITE, but people still call it ORANGE- weird! I'll call Labcorp first thing in the morning and fax the paid receipt back to our attorney in Guatemala. From there, our attorney will schedule Isabella's 2nd DNA test, which I'm guessing will be sometime this week.
All of this is happening so quickly! I am just so thankful to the Lord for His faithfulness. Do you remember my post a long time ago about my dream about Isabella being "born" really quickly at the end? This is just like my dream! Amazing!
To my Guatemama friends who are still waiting for PGN approval... I am on my knees daily begging the Lord to release your babies. I care so much! The phrase, "Pray without ceasing" keeps coming to my mind. I am doing just that!
My Favorite Color of the Day!
No, I'm not in Guatemala yet...

Sitting comfortably? Then Ill begin with a pineapple just where you dont want one - most of the people who visit this site are proud Mac users. Proud of our lack of need for antivirus applications that hog our CPU, proud of not needing to run a firewall because, Hey, I run a Mac, most hackers who hit it cant do anything anyway!.
Wake Up!
While youve been sleeping the Apple software platform has been ritually sodimised quicker than any other OS once again. CanSecWest has gone past with a whimper rather than a bang this year, but if you were paying attention youd notice that a fully patched Macbook Pro got taken (it now sits gingerly on Charlie Millers desk on a cushion while it recovers) quicker than any of the 3 systems on display in the annual PWN2OWN, that Mac users should by now be getting used to winning.
Its not just the computers that are having problems either - even the iPhone was torn a new one. Again, fully patched and still had the entire contents of its contacts list quietly stolen, along with its entire SMS history - including deleted messages.
This has been happening for a while now. CanSecWest have been ripping OS X apart yearly since at least 2007.
This was not a good week to be an Apple employee involved in security. These guys should probably be getting the afore mentioned pineapple. The problem is that the horse hasnt just bolted, its been taken to the local French restaurant and served to everyone.
To explain how bad this currently is, and why its so frustrating giving a stuff about this kind of thing you have to understand a few things:
- No operating system is 100% secure
- OS X has the biggest target on its back, and has done since at least 2007
- The problem is not being hacked, its the time it takes to fix the things
This is where Microsoft, after months and months of being knocked from one flaw in Windows XP to the next learnt their most important lesson - set a schedule to fix things. Be public about it.
Apple have an attitude of well fix it when we get around to it - or at least that seems to be the case! Dont believe me? It took Apple from Mid March 2009 until Mid MAY 2009 to patch the flaws that Charlie Miller highlighted. Sure Apple have an excuse - they were hard at work on Snow Leopard, and iPhone OS 3. But do you really think that leaving these holes in their OS unpatched for nearly 2 months is acceptable?
Im quite lucky, Ive used and worked in computers / IT for long enough to know how to ensure that my systems are fairly secure, I sit down and read through the NSA documentation on making your OS as secure as possible and do as much of it as I can and yet still be able to access the internet! The only problem at the moment is there is no NSA documentation on 10.6. The latest update from them is for 10.5 - it was last reviewed in September last year. (Id like to point out there is nothing for Win7 either, yet, though!). Even Apple have not updated their security guide (quite probably the same document, I really havent got the spirit in me to check!)
Ive been tempted to write this article for a while now, after seeing John Gruber get up at Macworld in February I realised that I wasnt the only one that was getting frustrated at the big ol fruit company. From the article: Gruber drew a comparison between safety and security, suggesting that Windows may indeed be more secure than Macs, but that Windows needed to be more secure (like having better locks on your doors) but Macs were safer (like living in a low-crime neighborhood). One concern was that Apple was slow in rolling out security fixes for publicly disclosed bugs, a danger since they were the largest user of such software (Microsoft develops their own).
So, what do I think Apple should do about it? It goes against everything that Apple, under Steve Jobs at least, stands for and they need to be talking about what they are doing - publicly. Okay, maybe not Twitter or a Mac OS X security blog, but maybe a page on the Apple site that you can visit to get the latest security updates and whats going on with the security team. I hate to hold Microsoft up as an example again, but theirs is a good one. They had a team of people at CanSecWest - Im sure that they learnt a few tricks while they were there.
Whats your view, do you care about this? Or do you think that the current security model is working well?

Are you on the lookout for ways to earn credit card rewards points or miles quicker? If you are already an avid online shopper and you haven't yet mustered the energy to start shopping through online shopping portals, now's the time to make the change.
Instead of going to your favorite online stores' websites directly like you normally would, shopping through online shopping portals will give each dollar you spend on your rewards credit card of choice more mileage. It is just a matter of clicking through the online shopping portal(s) which you have signed up for, to get to your favorite online stores. Of course, you are required to be logged in to the shopping portal(s) you are using.
While shopping through online shopping portals may sound a tad troublesome, in actual fact, you get to double-dip every time you go on your online shopping sprees. You earn your regular rewards, as well as any bonus rewards points or miles. This is a smart way to rack up your rewards efficiently without having to jump through too many hoops.
That said, keep in mind the number of bonus rewards points or miles that you can potentially earn greatly depends on the shopping portal you use as well as the online retailer you are purchasing from.
It pays to do your research and choose the online shopping portals that will let you earn points or miles in your preferred loyalty programs.
Many major airlines and hotel chains all offer their own shopping portals for members to use, such as Alaska Airlines' Mileage Plan Shopping; JetBlue's TrueBlue Shopping; Delta's SkyMiles Shopping; American Airlines' Aadvantage eShopping Mall; Hawaiian Airlines' Online Mall; Singapore Airlines' KrisFlyer Spre; United Airlines' MileagePlus Shopping ;Southwest Airlines' Rapid Rewards Shopping; Wyndham's Wyndham Rewards Shopping; Choice Hotel's Choice Privileges Mall; IHG Rewards Club's Partner Offers; Hilton Honors' Shopping Mall and more.
Credit card issuer Chase has its own Shop through Chase portal that lets cardholders who earn Chase Ultimate Rewards earn extra points. Similarly, Barclaycard RewardsBoost lets Barclaycard members earn additional rewards with zero extra effort.
Amtrak Guest Rewards, Upromise Shopping and MyPoints also let you earn extra rewards for shopping through their respective portal. Rakuten Rewards is another option you can consider if you are looking to earn cash back on your online shopping purchases; it was formerly known as Ebates.

In cataloging the various characters on this site, I noticed that most of my favorites fell into just a few different archetypes - and realized I could trace those archetypes back to a small handful of characters that were important to me in my preadolescence.
As an adult, the traits I find attractive have been defined more by reality than by fiction. But the effect of these formative experiences can be seen throughout this site.
The below characters are listed on their own works pages on the "Formative Tier", defined as "Characters I was exposed to when quite young that had significant impact on what kind of women I found attractive." But I thought it was worth gathering them here as well to present a more complete picture.
Ariel is a Disney Princess and the protagonist of The Little Mermaid. She's spirited and determined, curious and adventuresome, impulsive yet compassionate.
As a formative character, Ariel instilled an appreciation of the spunky redhead and rebellious princess archetypes.
Gadget is the team pilot, mechanic, and inventor on Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers. She's brilliantly inventive, a fearlessly creative problem solver, and very helpful to her friends.
As a formative character, Gadget instilled an appreciation of the wrench wench and gadgeteer genius archetypes.
Electra is a character from the long-running Xanth series. Introduced in the eleventh book, Heaven Cent, she spends some time as the Betty in a Betty and Veronica love triangle with Princess Nada and Prince Dolph. In the thirteenth book, Isle of View, Dolph finally realizes that he loves Electra and the two marry.
I was close to Dolph's age (nine years old in Heaven Cent) when I read these books and I identified pretty strongly with his character. As a result, I considered Electra to be the type of girl I should marry. As a formative character, Electra instilled an appreciation of "Betty" type characters.Portrait art taken from Return to Centaur, a graphic novel adaptation of the Xanth book Isle of View.
Fleta is a supporting character from the Apprentice Adept series. She's the love interest and eventual wife of major character Mach in the series's second trilogy. She's sweet and supportive and their love is described as having tremendous power and depth.
Mach was the character I identified with most in the series and Fleta the most appealing love interest. As a formative character, Fleta instilled an appreciation of "nice girl" characters who support and cheer up the people they care about.Portrait art taken from the only image of Fleta I could find - Darrell K. Sweet's cover art for the book Robot Adept.

It turned out to be another very wet FD weekend but that didn't seem to deter the participants from another successful effort. Including all the contacts and bonus points, we managed to come up with 6348 points, just slightly above last year's effort which was good enough to achieve Top Canadian in the 4A category.
Many visitors braved the conditions to come out and observe what we do. Among them were several members from the City of Brampton Emergency Management office as well as Linda Jeffery, the Mayor of Brampton.
Of particular note was the CW station. They managed to rack up 824 contacts, which looks to be an all time high.
To everyone in the club who participated, whether as an operator, logger or assisting with the setup and take down, we extend a big THANK YOU. None of this could have happened without you. We hope you had a great time and are looking forward to FD 2019.

Let's be crystal-clear about this: if you put any word other than "Black" in front of the words "Lives Matter", you are creating a problem. At the very best, you're misappropriating the name of a movement that protests the violence disproportionately thrown down on people of color by law enforcement and vigilantes. That's not nice; you shouldn't take the name of their movement to advance your own cause. At the very worst, you're being really, really racist.
Yes, really.
Some people hear the phrase "Black Lives Matter" and assume that it's racist, as if the leaders of the movement have no regard for non-black folks. Actually, the phrase doesn't mean that other lives don't matter. All lives are important, yes, and in a perfect world everybody would recognize that. Unfortunately, the world is far from ideal. While we may profess with our lips that all people are created equal, our actions as a society indicate that we believe otherwise. That's why "Black Lives Matter" exists. If you're white, straight, Christian, etc, in America, nobody needs to be reminded of the importance of your life – it is taken as self-evident. But if you're black, it wouldn't hurt for people – particularly law enforcement officers – to be reminded that you are also a human being, deserving of the same basic dignity and respect we theoretically afford to all humans.
As spiteful as it is to co-opt the "Black Lives Matter" title to support a different agenda, it's particularly hateful to replace the word "Black" with "Confederate".
For one – and this really ought not have to be pointed out – there are no more Confederate lives. The war's long done. The Confederacy is extinct. If the Confederacy lives on, it's only in the hearts of people who sympathize with the Confederate cause, which was closely tied to the institution of slavery.
We've discussed this before, but it bears repeating: the Confederacy was a racism-motivated regime, and the Confederate battle flag is a racist symbol! Of course it is. This point is beyond legitimate debate. The Confederate battle flag was stitched and flown by people who made no secret of their belief that black people were inferior to white people, and that they ought to be kept as slaves. After the Confederacy was defeated and re-absorbed into the United States, their flags might never again have seen the light of day, had they not been resurrected during the civil rights movements by white segregationists. The Confederate battle flag was revived as an immutable symbol of anti-black racism. It continues to be flown by people who wish to ignore that racism was a major cause – nay, the central cause – of the conflict that spawned it. It is an unfortunate part of Southern heritage, but not one we should celebrate.
Just so we're clear, I don't think there's anything wrong with Southern pride, per se. If you're a Southerner and proud of it, then I say "Good for you", as long as you are aware that the book of Southern Heritage has some awfully dark chapters. If you construct a flag depicting a plate of grits and a glass of iced sweet tea, I will gladly wave it for you (although, I should point out that I'm somewhat atypical as a Southerner in that I do not enjoy either of those fares). I have no problem with anybody expressing a well-tempered degree of regional pride, but I strongly disagree that the Confederate battle flag is the appropriate symbol of that pride.
I'd like to conclude by addressing the first statement made by this odious meme: "It Ain't Coming Down". I have a couple of relevant videos. I'll just leave them right here.
In South Carolina, at least, it came down. Twice.

- How to Read a Study Record
There is a high prevalence of asthma in southwest Virginia and there are multiple osteopathic manipulative techniques (OMT) which are thought to improve lung function. However, there are inadequate studies regarding the effectiveness of using osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) as an office treatment or a home treatment to address obstructive lung disease. In addition, there is little information on the level of acceptance, use, and cost effectiveness of using OMT in rural southwest Virginia. The purpose of this study is to determine the viability of OMT treatment with asthma, the level of acceptance in selected clinics in southwest Virginia, and the effectiveness of home OMT education in order to implement a program to improve asthma control. The study hypotheses are: 1. Osteopathic manipulation delivered to the asthmatic patient will significantly improve spirometry values, thoracic excursion, and subjective asthma symptoms. (.05 alpha) 2.Patients who are taught and use a home treatment regime for asthma will significantly improve spirometry values, thoracic excursion, and subjective asthma symptoms after two weeks, compare with those who do not have home treatment.
3.Physicians educated on the use of OMT for asthma will increase their perceived future use of OMT as an adjunct to treat this disorder.

Just imagine, it's your anniversary, your birthday or a holiday and a new package arrives addressed to you. Expectantly you open it to find the latest IoT gadget, maybe an activity tracker or even a connected sprinkler system controller – something you've been wanting. "Nice!" you think, but who could have sent it? Pushing its origin aside for a bit, you eagerly set it up and pair it with your smart phone using your home Wi-Fi network credentials. BAM! In that moment, and unbeknownst to you, you have just created an opportunity for an attacker to gain access to your valuable data.
By now, most are aware of email phishing scams used to inject malware onto personal computing devices, but what about a phishing attack that uses an IoT edge node as a lure, like the scenario described above? As attackers and attacks become more sophisticated, this scenario is increasingly possible. Along with the growing expertise of the attacker, there is expanding technology adoption by the consumers fueling the expansion of IoT and increasing the probability of acceptance of an IoT edge node "bait."
So, what went wrong? What could have been done to prevent it? There are many scenarios that that could lead to this type of attack where a familiar product is repurposed for malicious intent. The firmware that was initially deployed, and or the firmware update that came after deployment was not properly protected by the device manufacturer.
Just like the trap door functions that enable cryptography, there are some simple steps that can be taken in the manufacturing and development of embedded devices that can make this type of attack extraordinarily more difficult to perform in the field. With the right technology, firmware can be placed into internal memory and permanently locked down. Firmware updates can also be protected by cryptography.
Let's have a look at how NXP's security technology is used to protect against this attack scenario. NXP's Kinetis MCU and its bootloader enablement, the Kinetis bootloader or KBOOT integrate hardware and software features to enable secure initial provisioning of firmware along with protection of future downloads of firmware in end devices. KBOOT is a flash or ROM resident bootloader along with host tools that are designed to enable the programming of Kinetis MCUs through the entire product life cycle.
This KBOOT enablement makes use of the Kinetis MCU security technology by providing software firewalls and the ability to leverage cryptographic hardware acceleration for the handling of firmware programming into internal or external memories. KBOOT recognizes the chip level security settings. On some devices, once in secure modes, the only method for using KBOOT to program firmware is to make use of encrypted binary files. All other attempts to update firmware will fail. This means that only the holder of the Secure Binary Key can create the files that will be accepted for downloading firmware to a Kinetis MCU using KBOOT.
KBOOT is provided as full source code and is highly configurable allowing for more customizations to enhance the security for the application firmware. For example, the Kinetis MCU can be configured to place the bootloader in flash and to make the bootloader immutable using chip security settings. With this protection, an attacker would have to completely remove and replace the IC to make a clone. Because the software is open source, KBOOT could be modified to customize the cryptographic and integrity checking algorithms that the end user desires. One possibility for a very strong security implementation would be to leverage an embedded secure element in addition to KBOOT to strengthen the product life cycle security by adding the authentication of devices using secure servers.
As consumers, there is not much we can do about this type of focused phishing attack. Even knowing about the possibility does not ensure we will always be protected. But as a world leader in secure connectivity solutions, NXP is providing solutions for such threats. Using KBOOT software and the Kinetis MCU will allow embedded developers to more easily integrate the firmware protection needed to ensure these attacks are mitigated.

The Fashion Telex: In which the editors of T: The New York Times Style Magazine file almost-real-time dispatches from the show of the moment. This week, the Telex comes from Milan's women's fashion week.
Anne Christensen, women's fashion director, reporting from Milan on Dolce & Gabbana —
Remember Diana before she became Princess Di? The shy Diana Spencer who wore mid-calf length tweed skirts with matching jacket and silk neck scarves? Well, she is being remembered on the Dolce & Gabbana runway. The look was very 70's English country, but it also felt like D & G going back to their roots. The Dolce finales are really something I now look forward to! This season the most beautiful gown was in a strapless light blue chiffon with white rough Mongolian fur sewn haphazardly over some of it. Truly beauty and the beast!"

'Star Wars Episode VIII': Inside Dubrovnik and Other Filming Locations
Entertainment Christine Bord March 17, 2016
"Star Wars" fans have been dreaming of traveling to a galaxy far, far, away ever since "A New Hope" debuted nearly 40 years ago. Though fans can't actually visit their favorite fictional Star Wars destinations such as Endor or Hoth, they can make pilgrimages to the real-life locales that inspired those far-off planets. Now, as Episode VIII begins production, we're finally getting a look at what's next for the "Star Wars" franchise, and what new travel destinations fans can look forward to exploring.
"Star Wars: Episode VIII" began filming on Stradun in Dubrovnik, Croatia last week. With the shoot taking place on the city's main street, patient fans have been able to capture some epic set videos, and photos, that are now leaking online, and Dubrovnik is hoping all of that online traffic translates into tourism dollars. So far, it's working. StarWarsDubrovnik.com has already interviewed several die-hard fans who traveled to Dubrovnik to catch some of the action and they weren't disappointed. The street was used for flying stuntmen, chase scenes and provided a first look at a slew of brand new aliens.
Once the landspeeder explosions were cleaned up on Stradun, filming moved to the mega yacht Sea Star, where a mix of space dignitaries and aliens enjoyed a swanky cocktail party. The "Event Ship" is available for events and transport throughout the east Adriatic coast so we wouldn't be surprised if the yacht became a favorite venue for Star Wars-themed events, conventions and maybe even a wedding or two in the future.

Dubrovnik isn't the only new location being added to the Star Wars universe. Episode VIII crews have already scouted the caves and grottoes in the districts of Iztapalapa and Tláhuac, located just outside of Mexico City. The production hasn't made a commitment to shoot in Mexico yet, but officials have confirmed filming will take place in at least two different areas of Ireland.
In May, filming will move to Ceann Sibéal, located on the western tip of the Dingle Peninsula in Ireland, for two weeks. According to RTE, contractors are already setting up a roadway to shuttle equipment back and forth from the remote locale. It is believed the site will be used as Ahch-To, where Rey, played by Daisy Ridley, will train as a Jedi.
In addition to Ceann Sibéal, crews have already filmed on Skellig Michael. Anyone who saw The Force Awakens (and who hasn't?) is already familiar with the remote island. This is where we finally see Luke Skywalker, and where Episode VIII is expected to pick up. "I can't believe they let us shoot there," director J.J. Abrams said of the site in a promotional video. "I mean, it was so beautiful."

Fans have already started flocking to Portmagee, a nearby village that hosted the movie's cast and crew during filming on Skellig Michael. The Moorings, a local hotel, is embracing the boom by offering a two-night Star Wars package that includes a t-shirt and the "inside story of the making of the Star Wars movie."
No matter where else "Star Wars: Episode VIII" is filmed, we can be sure of one thing: the fans will definitely follow.

NHS Innovation Challenge prizes worth £650,000 launched
The NHS Innovation Challenge Prize celebrates innovation driven by the frontline doctors, nurses and NHS staff who deliver care every day. The 2014/15 NHS Innovation Challenge Prizes, worth £650,000, will be announced at the Queen's Nursing Institute conference in London.
Mr Stevens said: "We have a strong track record in developing and using new medical technologies to revolutionise the way we care for and treat patients – diagnostic ultrasound, the MRI scan, the ophthalmoscope used to examine our eyes – to name but a few, all developed or invented by British innovators and used across the world to deliver healthcare to millions of people every day.
"We need to find new ways of working if our health service is going to be fit to face the challenges ahead and we know that those ideas come from the brilliant people working in frontline caring and research roles."
Now in its fourth year, this year's programme offers prizes across seven categories, including Use of technology, Rehabilitation, Digital patient and clinician engagement and Diabetes.
Previous winners include Dr Neil Guha and Professor Guruprasad Aithal from Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust who were awarded £100,000 after developing a new way of detecting early stage liver disease in the community. If rolled out nationally, the project could save the NHS as much £74.6 million in the first year.
The NHS Innovation Challenge Prize is open to all NHS organisations in England and deadline for entry is 7 November 2014. For more information, visit the The NHS Innovation Challenge Prize website.

November 30th, 2018
An industrial utility service company in Kentucky needed to upgrade and migrate its distributed control system (DCS), which came with a few challenges.
DTE Calvert City (DTECC) made the decision three years ago to upgrade their obsolete Process Suite HMI to APACS OS. For 15 years, APACS DCS had been a reliable and comfortable system that was used to maintain the operational functionality for a plant that generated power and utilities around the clock. However, now the APACS hardware lifespan was coming to an end due to a decrease in both new and used replacement components and an end to the support for the human-machine interface (HMI) and APACS hardware.
Cross Company, a certified PCS7 Solution Partner for Siemens, had built trust with DTECC by implementing the smooth transition to APACS OS. DTECC reviewed their needs, concerns, and questions and chose Cross Company to migrate their APACS DCS to a full Siemens PCS 7 system implementation.

New Zealand extends WB's special Hobbit deal to other productions
Thanks to The Hobbit, New Zealand's government is now offering additional incentives to attract other big-budget productions. According to Variety,
The changes to the Kiwi incentives have opened up the country's Large Budget Screen Production Grant (LBSPG) to allow for an additional grant for very large productions ($200 million-plus) as a direct result of the tussle over the "The Hobbit" films last year, when Warner Bros. sought financial incentives to make the big-budget production more attractive.
Now, an additional $NZ9.75 million ($7.75 million) is available to these big productions, and this new grant covers expenditure that may be excluded under the current LBSPG rules.
This move merely formalizes the negotiations thrashed out by the government last year, when it fought to keep the Hobbit pics in N.Z., and is the same deal that Warner Bros. negotiated at the time.Posted in New Zealand, Warner Bros. on November 1, 2011 by kristin Source: Variety New Zealand extends WB's special Hobbit deal to other productions | Discuss
