LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WKYT) - Republican Matt Bevin defeated Democrat Jack Conway by more than 84,000 votes to become only the second Republican Kentucky governor in four decades.
Bevin took the lead early in Tuesday's election, and he never let it go. Earlier in the day, he told a crowd of reporters that he felt a shift was coming in the race, and while it was ultimately up to the voters, he said he felt good.
"I believe I'll win but votes will decide," he said. "Momentum has shifted; it is on our side. The enthusiasm is there. Really turns out to be who turns out to vote."
About 30.6 percent or 982,259 of Kentucky's 3,201,852 voters turned out to vote, according to the secretary of state's office.
The Louisville businessman received 511,771 votes, pushing him well past Conway's 426,944 votes. Independent Drew Curtis was a distant third with 35,629 votes.
Jack Conway, the state's attorney general, didn't say a whole lot when he took the stage just before 9 p.m. Tuesday at the Frankfort Convention Center to make his concession speech.
"Tonight was not the result that we had hoped for, but it is a result we respect," he told the crowd.
Conway said he called Bevin to congratulate him. He said he was obviously disappointed, but he said he was "honored by the support I received from so many Kentuckians who shared my commitment to the issues that matter to hardworking families."
"I ran for governor because I believed in fighting for the values and the interests of Kentucky's working families, and it's been an honor to serve as a strong voice for so many in this election," he said. "I also want to thank the people of Kentucky for allowing me the tremendous honor of serving as the 49th Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Whether in public or private life, I look forward to always working to improve our Commonwealth."
Conway didn't say much about what's next except this, to his two daughters: "Eva, Alex...daddy's going to be home a lot."
In Louisville, Bevin took the stage after several other Republican candidates who were also celebrating victories. Kentucky Lt. Governor elect Jenean Hampton, the state's first African-American to hold a statewide office, briefly addressed the crowd before Bevin was introduced. She said it was "amazing."
Bevin reiterated that as he headed to the stage.
"It feels outstanding, it's a good day for Kentucky," he said.
Bevin addressed the crowd, thanking his wife, his children and his parents. He acknowledged that there is a challenge ahead, but he said he was prepared to lead the state.
"We need a fresh start," Bevin said. "I do want us to remember that the task before us has only just begun."
Bevin talked about uniting the state's leaders, crossing party lines to achieve their goals.
"This is a call out to everyone in Kentucky," he said. "Whether you voted for me or not. This is your Kentucky."
Republicans have dominated federal elections in Kentucky, but moderate Democrats have maintained control of state government. Bevin's election gives Republicans control of the executive branch along with a commanding majority in the state Senate. Democrats still have an eight-seat majority in the state House of Representatives.
Focus will almost immediately shift to the state House elections in 2016, where U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell has vowed to flex his powerful fundraising muscle to Republicans to take over the only southern state legislative body controlled by Democrats.
Voters elected someone to replace a two-term Democrat in a race that has turned on health insurance for 500,000 people, marriage licenses for same-sex couples and public education for preschool children.
The three gubernatorial candidates contrasted sharply in a race watched closely for its proximity to the 2016 presidential election and for its competitiveness in one of the nation's last two-party states.
The two major-party candidates and their allies have spent more than $14 million to air more than 41,000 TV ads in Kentucky, according to an analysis by the Center for Public Integrity. That does not include direct mail or ads on radio or local cable systems.
The governor's race was considered to be one of the top tickets in the country. The race was featured Tuesday in the New York Times.
Last spring, Bevin won a nail-biter of a primary -- just 83 votes -- over James Comer. That wasn't the case this time around.
Conway had been considered, in polls, to be the frontrunner. Bevin appeared to have an uphill battle.
Steve Robertson, spokesman for the Kentucky Republican Party, said it would be a close race.
Both sides have spent a lot of money, Robertson said. Bevin has been outspent recently, but Robertson says everything is "even-Steven now."
"It is a jump ball, anybody's ball game," he said. "Both campaigns have really been going at it. Matt Bevin is in a good position."
Meanwhile, Curtis said social media was a big part of his campaign. In a column published Tuesday by Wired, Curtis said the Internet has made it possible for a third-party candidate to win an election.
"Basically whatever I'm going to clock in, I've done with nothing. So if you add that effort plus an honest-to-God political campaign, you could see some pretty big results," Curtis said.
Curtis cast his vote Tuesday morning alongside family in Versailles. He spoke to reporters and acknowledged that his chance of winning was slim.
Curtis said there is value in his campaign because it brings up topics that might not have been discussed, such as the pension system, tax reform and restoring voting rights for felons.
"If nothing else happens other than that, that's going to be a huge boon to the state just by itself," he said. "So yeah, being able to bring more complicated subjects to the table than people otherwise would have talked about."

"Raising capital privately is frequently a frustrating experience for many small to mid-size businesses," Stephen Goodman wrote in a recent article for Bloomberg Law's Securities Regulation & Law Report. "Many do not have connections to high net worth individuals or institutions that would be likely to invest in their business, nor do they have the bandwidth to research who potential investors might be."
In his article, Goodman, a partner in Pryor Cashman's Corporate Group who represents emerging companies, examined how recent amendments to SEC regulations governing broker activity impact issuers who wish to engage in private placements, but also plan to use finders.
While there are registered broker dealers who will work on small transactions for emerging entities, many entrepreneurs will find themselves dealing with unregistered brokers, commonly known as "finders," who offer to raise capital in exchange for a percentage of the funds raised or other compensation, Goodman said.
"As a result of the amendments [to Rules 504 and 506], an issuer's failure to determine whether the finder/broker is a 'bad actor' may result in losing the exemption from registration for the offering," he explained. "Bad actor" disqualification provisions, also known as "bad boy" rules, prohibit the directors, officers and significant shareholders of the issuer from participating in exempt securities offerings if they have been convicted of, or are subject to court or administrative sanctions for, securities fraud or violations of other specified laws.
Under the amended rules, issuers must consider whether any "covered person" involved in the offering is the subject of a disqualifying event, such as a criminal conviction, court injunction or SEC disciplinary order. "Covered persons" include the issuer, any predecessor, affiliated issuer, director, executive or officer participating in the offering, among others.
At the very least, Goodman advises issuers to ensure that any finder engaged to help raise funds represents that they - as well as each of their directors, executive officers or other officers involved in the offering - have not committed one of the disqualifying acts listed in the bad actor rules.

Informality and Productivity: The Role of Unemployment Insurance Schemes
We study the design of optimal unemployment protection schemes to evaluate its impact on labor markets, welfare and productivity. We consider a life-cycle economies with formal and informal labor markets, unobservable effort to find and keep formal jobs, and unobservable heterogeneities across worker to find better formal jobs. We analyze the first best allocation to compare with the allocations stemming from the implementation of two alternative schemes: (i) a simple unemployment insurance system with a defined profile of unemployment benefits; (ii) an unemployment insurance saving account scheme parameterized by a replacement rate, an initial contribution to the saving account, a minimum level of savings at which the payment is suspended, and a maximum level of savings at which the contributions are suspended. Our quantitative analysis makes clear that both schemes can have a significant impact on welfare and productivity. Two additional lessons can be learned. First, no scheme is necessarily better in both economies. Second, a reform that implements an scheme that it is welfare improving does not necessarily boost productivity and viceversa.

Titanium is one of the longest standing materials of choice for dental implants. Its biological compatibility with the human body, high success rate, and versatility are among the factors accounting for its popularity.
Titanium zirconia implants are both used in dentistry. But in order to determine whether which one is the right one for you, take into consideration a number of titanium dental implant side effects:
- Hypersensitivity or Allergic Reactions
In very rare cases, patients have suffered hypersensitivity or allergic reactions to Titanium metal after getting an implant. Such reactions vary in severity and are exhibited in multiple ways. The most common of these include:
- inflammation of the gums or face
- implant loosening
- delayed wound healing
- hives or acne-like bumps on the face
- Autoimmune Disease Complications
Autoimmune disorder patients and individuals with a high genetic susceptibility to such diseases could also suffer negative effects from titanium dental implants. This is because their immune system has a predisposition to attack tissue mistakenly. If this happens, it could result in inflammation and hamper the healing process. However, every case is unique and such patients require extensive review prior to the procedure to avert the risks.
- Yellow Fingernail Syndrome
Researchers have found a link between titanium dental implants and the development of yellow fingernail syndrome. Apart from the tell-tale nail color change that characterizes this condition, it could also cause respiratory complications. It is said to be the result of an oxidation process which triggers galvanic corrosion causing the yellow discoloration. In such cases, when the implant is removed, the condition is resolved.
- Activation of Free Radicals
Free radical activation is yet another side effect of titanium implants that could result from oxidation. Free radicals are unstable molecules which have unpaired electrons. Such electrons act as they seek partners and could, therefore, cause cell damage in the oral cavity. Having these titanium dental implant side effects in mind before undertaking the procedure will make it easier to choose the most suitable material and avoid potential risks.

Today, I am honoured to be sharing with you a very inspirational guest post written by Jenny from 'Jenny In Neverland'. Jenny is a fantastic book blogger and has even set up her own blog touring business. I hope you enjoy this post, and please head over to Jenny's blog afterwards here! 🙂
I started blogging in March 2013 and the reason? I was bored. That's right, there's no deep, meaningful reason why I started up my blog. I wasn't overly concerned if anyone read it or if I was going to gain a following. In fact, I didn't understand where followers came from! I simply came across another book blog, thought it was a good idea and started up my own out of pure boredom. I had previously quit my college course and my job – I was training to be a teaching assistant in a Primary school and was going to college one night a week to learn the theory side of it and then working voluntarily in a school 3 mornings a week to gain experience. I was on my course for a few months and every day I went into work I realised more and more that it wasn't for me. I just simply was not cut out to deal with 30 odd school children every day. One day I went into work and I snapped at this boy. I can't remember what he done but it wasn't anything bad but I really shouted at him and that was the moment I realised it was time to go. I was also suffering from bad anxiety at the time and being stuck doing something I hated only made it worse.
I've always loved reading but I didn't think there was anything I could do about it. Apart from an author, publisher or librarian but I wasn't cut out to write my own books, I didn't have the experience or the guts to work in the publishing industry and there was no librarian jobs going in my area. When I came across someone else's blog I thought it was a lovely idea which led me to start up my own. I was in a pretty low place at the time but reading and reviewing books, even if noone was reading my reviews yet, really helped to pick me up and make me feel like I was doing something worth while again. I had absolutely no idea where I was going with it and it would have been a far off dream for my blog to do as well as it's doing now. I remember the first review request I got and the first time a big author replied to my tweet (it was Dorothy Koomson!) My love for reading and books just grew and grew even more and I don't think it's ever going to stop! It's amazing what books can do, how they can bring you out of your shell and help you see the light even when you're in a dark place in your life.
Since that fateful day in March 2013, I have worked hard and tirelessly on my blog. The more I blog, the more I enjoy it and I have made so many fantastic friends and acquaintances through it. I had absolutely no idea the book blogging world existed. It's like Hogwarts – you can only see it properly if you're a part of it and I'm so glad I am. Last month, I also launched my own blog touring business. For those that don't know, a blog tour is a virtual tour of a book which gets featured on various blogs over the course of a day, a week or a fortnight – depending on the type of tour the author wants. Neverland Blog Tours specialises in tours for Fantasy and Paranormal genres (including YA and Romance) because as far as I'm aware, there aren't many – if any – that do that. Fantasy is one of my favourite genres but unfortunately, I think a few people overlook it and don't take it as seriously as others. My aim for this project is to try and shed some light on brilliant Fantasy books and help the authors get their work noticed. My first tour is coming up in May, you can find more information about it here: http://jennyinneverland.wordpress.com/2014/04/21/tour-the-star-child-by-stephanie-keyes/
Well, that was my journey into the blogging world and what a journey it's been! Here's to many more years of reading, books and fantastic bloggy friends! Thank you to Jenny for having me on her fab blog today!

Virgin Mobile review: the UK's best low-cost network in 2020?
The retailers featured on this page may compensate us when our readers follow links to their websites and make a purchase. More
Are Virgin Mobile UK just about cheap SIM only plans and handset contracts? We investigate their 4G network coverage, speeds and benefits too. SIM Sherpa is your trusty guide. Last updated: September 5th 2019.
Overall rating
SIM Sherpa rates Virgin Mobile as a very good provider
(3.5/ 5, very good)
"There's no doubting Virgin Mobile offer extremely competitive prices on the EE network that reaches more places and delivers faster 4G than anyone else. But we're a bit concerned about worrying customer service complaints data and some of their benefits are being overtaken by other providers."
Our guide below finds the things Virgin aren't great at but plenty of other positives to balance them out.
The 3 best bits
1) Use the UK's largest, fastest network
2) Low monthly prices on SIM only and phones
3) Added benefits like data rollover and free data
The 3 worst bits
1) Too many conditions on roaming
2) No WiFi calling or 4G calling
3) Worrying customer service record

Virgin Mobile's network
Coverage: Virgin Mobile get you access to EE's 4G network
✔ Make sure there's 4G, 3G and 2G in your areaCheck Virgin signal
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
Virgin Mobile are part of the wider Virgin Media brand. They're the only major provider that use the EE network to not be owned by BT (even EE themselves are owned by BT).
Using the EE network is a huge advantage for Virgin Mobile customers, because it's the UK's largest for 4G and joint largest for 3G and 2G. Unlike EE, Virgin don't yet offer 5G data.
Virgin haven't yet publicised when they will have 5G. We suspect their hosts EE may want to keep the faster speeds exclusive to them for a while before allowing Virgin to have 5G.
When 4G launched on Virgin Mobile, existing customers could upgrade from 3G at no extra cost. Virgin were late to the party with 4G, so this might not be the case with 5G when it does come.
Virgin Mobile's 4G signal is available to 99% of the UK population, while 98% can get their 3G. That's a better combination than any other network (although the same as EE, BT Mobile and Plusnet).
Despite the impressive stats, no network has universal geographic coverage, so we highly recommend checking Virgin's signal everywhere you use your phone (not just at home but on your commute, at work etc).
Useful link: Check Virgin Mobile's coverage now on their official map
4G speeds: Virgin Mobile customers could go faster than EE!
✔ Virgin claim faster speeds on averageRead why
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
It's well known that Virgin Media have the fastest widely available broadband speeds in the UK, and they've made the right choice in EE to deliver their 4G to Virgin Mobile customers too:
We expect EE customers to get typical download speeds over 4G of around 31 Mbps, which is faster than any other provider. The key question is how that translates for Virgin Mobile customers.
This page on the Virgin Media website explains Virgin's 4G speeds deliver a maximum 70 Mbps. That's home fibre broadband fast. And it's actually faster than the majority of EE plans with a 60 Mbps cap.
On average, we'd expect little noticeable difference to joining the fastest network EE directly, unless you chose one of EE's 90 Mbps Max plans and use your phone regularly in a 4G+ area.

Call quality: Virgin's host network scores well recently
✔ Virgin have 4G data but no 4G calling yetAbout Virgin's 4G
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
This is another area where it's a big advantage to Virgin Mobile customers that they use EE. They've just scored well in tests on how fast calls connect and the quality of the audio.
Independent network testers P3 Analytics do an annual report into how each of the UK's 4 main networks (EE, Three, O2 and Vodafone) perform for call quality. Note they don't measure virtual operators like Virgin.
In their 2018/19 report, Virgin's host network EE came top of the scores for call quality, receiving a 'very good' rating, having made large improvements on the year before.
There is a difference though that could be crucial here. Virgin Mobile don't yet support 4G calling (which offers better sound quality), so we wouldn't expect Virgin to score quite so highly if they were measured directly.
Useful link: BT explain why 4G calling is useful (BT also use EE's network)
WiFi calling: it's not supported by Virgin Mobile currently
✔ All these networks have WiFi callingRead our guide
to the networks with WiFi calling

This is one area where Virgin Mobile are at a disadvantage to two of the networks that use EE's network: BT Mobile and EE themselves. Both offer WiFi calling on pay monthly plans but Virgin Mobile do not.
Some of Virgin's competitors such as Three and iD Mobile also offer it now. In fact, we actually rate Three's InTouch WiFi calling scheme as the best in the UK.
If you're unfamiliar with WiFi calling, read our guide here. It's basically a system that beats indoor mobile signal black spots by letting you make calls over a WiFi signal instead of 2G/3G/4G mobile signal.
If you've been with a provider who uses EE before and have found their signal gets indoors fine in the places you use your phone, then Virgin not offering WiFi calling shouldn't be a problem.

WiFi hotspots: 3.5 million(!) free locations on Virgin Mobile
✔ Free WiFi hotspots in the UK and abroadSee WiFi locations
in Virgin Mobile's guide
(opens in new window)
Nowadays, free WiFi is really easy to access in loads of businesses and transport hubs. But quite often it's still limited by time or needs you to register and log in.
That's why we think it's good when mobile networks offer a universal free WiFi service to their customers that logs them in automatically. Using WiFi instead of your mobile data saves using up your monthly allowance.
This is one Virgin Mobile's real strong points. All their mobile customers get access to Virgin's network of 3.5 million+ (!) free WiFi hotspots in the UK.
Just download the free app, log in once and then every time you're in range, your phone will connect to the hotspot, saving you on your mobile data allowance.
Useful link: How to get free WiFi with Virgin Mobile
Tethering: Virgin Mobile now allow it on pay monthly
✔ An online chat agent confirms tethering's allowedSee Virgin Mobile terms
We've seen Virgin Mobile are a solid choice for superfast 4G data and extensive coverage but there was previously one thing holding them back:
Until recently, you weren't allowed to use their pay monthly phones or SIMs for tethering (making a WiFi hotspot with your phone using mobile data).
We're pleased to say Virgin have now seen sense here and have started allowing tethering for all their pay monthly customers (see screenshot of our chat conversation).
So now you're free to use your superfast 4G data connection on Virgin to connect other WiFi-enabled devices like laptops, tablets or even other phones to your phone for internet when you're away from tradititional WiFi.

Virgin Mobile benefits
Data rollover: Virgin Mobile were one of the firsts to offer it
✔ It's a second chance to use unused dataHow it works
from Virgin's own guide
(opens in new window)
We all use different amounts of data each month. Sometimes we'll get through our whole monthly allowance. Sometimes we might not get anywhere near it. Isn't it a waste of money if you've paid for data you've not used?
Quite a few networks now have started to address this problem by launching plans that either let you keep unused data for future months, or even pay you back for the cost of data you've not used (see SMARTY).
Virgin Mobile are one of the few networks that offer data rollover. On their pay monthly smartphone contracts and SIM only plans, you'll keep any of your regular data allowance you've not used to use next month.
We really rate this as a feature because it's basically another chance to use up data you've paid for. It'd be better if you could keep data longer than a month though (Sky Mobile let you keep it the longest, up to 3 years).
Useful link: Read all ins and outs of Virgin Mobile's data rollover plans
Free data schemes: Virgin offer it on messaging apps
✔ Unlimited data for messaging on select appsRead full details
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
In our guide to free data schemes, we notice two ways that mobile networks are giving people free data for certain activities: either for video/music streaming (Three and EE) or social media (Virgin, VOXI and Three).
Join Virgin Mobile on either a pay monthly SIM only plan or phone contract and whenever you use WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger to send messages or Twitter they won't charge you for the data it uses.
The full ins and outs can be read here on the Virgin Mobile website but there a very few restrictions: you will be charged for the data if you're abroad and you'll need some of regular data allowance left for it to work.
As free data schemes go, Virgin's is on the less-valuable side: messaging doesn't use as much as video/audio streaming like on Three's Go Binge. But if you're a heavy messaging user, Virgin's scheme will be useful.

Roaming: have a fiddly fair usage policy
✔ Mostly pay no extra to roam in 43 countriesLatest destination list
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
Now that every mobile network has to let you roam abroad in EU countries at no extra cost, we're looking for any providers that go above and beyond these requirements and let you go further afield too.
Virgin Mobile aren't one of them. You'll get free EU roaming in these 43 destinations with any of their pay monthly SIM only plans or mobile phone contracts but you can't use your whole data allowance while abroad (calculate how much you can use here). It varies per plan.
To travel anywhere else gets very pricey, very quickly with Virgin. You'll pay per minute, text and MB of data you use (see costs per country here). In the USA for example, it's £5 per MB (that's £5000 per GB!!!)
If you like the idea of free roaming anywhere elsewhere, read our guide to the best worldwide roaming mobile network here. It's Three we still rate best with 71 destinations where you can roam for free.
Overall, we can't give Virgin Mobile a good rating for roaming because of the finickity fair usage policy on EU roaming and shockingly expensive world roaming. It's just not their strength.

Customer rewards: exclusive unlimited data plan and more
✔ Unlimited data if you have Virgin's broadband or TVSee exclusive deal
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
In this section, we're looking for how mobile companies reward existing customers who are already with them, through loyalty programmes like O2's Priority or other existing customer perks. Virgin do quite well here:
If you have broadband or TV through Virgin Media, there's an exclusive unlimited data plan on phone contracts (see here) and SIM only (see it here) that only you can access.
Otherwise, the benefits for TV or broadband customers are limited to getting unlimited calls to Virgin Mobile numbers. There are no discounts like we see on BT Mobile or Sky Mobile for their home customers.
Another nice scheme, is Virgin Mobile's refer-a-friend scheme, which offers some sizeable cash rewards (up to £100) if you get one of your friends to join the network.
Useful link: How Virgin's refer-a-friend scheme works
Free subscriptions: get F-Secure Safe for 12 months
✔ Use it for up to 5 devices at once for freeSee the offer
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
Plenty of networks now throw in one or more subscriptions to particular services to add a bit more value to your deal. So what do Virgin Mobile offer?
Well it's not glamorous but every pay monthly SIM only or phone contract customer on Virgin is entitled to claim a 12-month subscription to F-Secure Safe internet security software, to use on up to 5 devices at once.
It's an app you download to your phone that protects you from viruses, hackers, internet content unsuitable for children and can help locate your phone if stolen. You can trial it and delete it if you don't like it.
Credit to Virgin here, because this isn't one of those offers that lures you to sign up free so they can charge you for later. You can get the software free without giving any bank details. You'll only renew if you actively choose to.
Useful link: All features of F-Secure Safe and offer terms and conditions
Spending caps: Virgin now let you limit extra bills
✔ Avoid spending more than you're expectingHow they work
from Virgin's own guide
(opens in new window)
Running up extra bills for additional usage like going over your data limits or phoning internationally can be a worry for some, especially if you're taking out a contract for someone else like one of your children.
In fact the government regulator Ofcom has just made it compulsory for mobile networks to offer customers the chance to set a cap on how much extra they can spend if it's something they want to do.
Virgin were offering this before the deadline came in. Their page here explains all the ins and outs of the scheme but we rate it as one of the most flexible, because you can set your cap at absolutely zero or in intervals up to £100, or choose not to have any cap.
But because every network now offer them, spending caps needn't be the deciding factor between Virgin Mobile and any other provider any more.
Useful link: Costs for extra usage on Virgin | Virgin's guide to spending caps
Family plans: discounted extra SIM only plans
✔ Save £2 a month on extra SIMsHow they work
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
Virgin have just started offering Family Plans, which give you a £2 monthly discount on any 12-month SIM only deal you add to your account alonside your main pay monthly phone or SIM contract.
You can add up to 4x extra SIMs to your deal at any point, giving a total possible saving of £96 a year (£2 discount x 4 SIMs x 12 months). And it's Virgin's regular low-priced SIM only range you get to choose from.
All the plans get added together into one single bill. And you can manage them all from your online account or via Virgin's improved My Virgin Mobile app - we think people are going to like this simplicity and convenience.
The main major downside is that Family Plans are a benefit reserved solely for Virgin Media home broadband or TV customers. Even if you're a loyal Virgin Mobile customer but not Virgin Media, you don't qualify.

✔ Key facts about Virgin's SIM only plans
You're allowed to move both up and down plans on Virgin. So if you need more minutes and data, you can switch to a more expensive plan that gives you more.
But if you find you've always got minutes or data spare at the end of the month, you can move down to a cheaper plan, to pay less each month. You can do this once a month, as many times as you like.

Phone contracts from Virgin Mobile
Here's what like and don't like about Virgin's smartphone contracts:
✔ What we like about Virgin's phone deals
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
You'll find a broad range of well-priced smartphones in Virgin Mobile's pay monthly range, from the latest iPhone and Samsung models, to mid-range Androids, down to cheap basic handsets.
We think it's fair to say Virgin have the UK's most flexible smartphone deals (as long as you're taking a Freestyle deal, rather than a 'Classic' contract).
You can upgrade early or quit Virgin Mobile altogether by paying off just the phone part of your overall deal. And you can change your monthly mins, texts and data plan up or down according to your needs.
The closest level of flexibility is with O2's Custom contracts, which are even more flexible but we'd say are usually a fair amount more expensive than Virgin Mobile's monthly prices.
Useful link: Browse Virgin Mobile's phone range
✖ What we don't like about Virgin's phone deals
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
Many of Virgin's lowest monthly price deals are based on 36-month deals. So even though the monthly rate is lower, remember you'll be paying that rate for an extra year, compared to 24-month deals. So the total cost could be more.
Also, because most of Virgin's smartphones are on their "Freestyle contracts", you're basically taking a loan out to pay for the cost of the device. For this reason, you'll need a very good credit rating to get accepted for a deal.
Lastly, we'd advise against about getting too excited about the promise of early upgrades. Virgin have a scheme where you trade in your phone with them to upgrade early by paying off your loan.
We find this sort of scheme poor value. You're effectively surrendering a phone you've been paying full price for, at a price that might not be as good as selling it second-hand yourself, just to take another full-price phone contract.
If you want to upgrade early and can afford it, we'd recommend just paying off the rest of your handset loan with your own money, and selling the phone yourself or keeping it for someone else. You'll keep more value that way.

Pay As You Go: Virgin no longer offer it
✔ Cheap rates on the EE networkSee PAYG rates
at 1pmobile.com
(opens in new window)
You can no longer get a pay as you go deal from Virgin on a phone or SIM. We don't think this is a huge loss, as their old plans weren't cheap and they only gave you 3G, not 4G data.
If you're looking for a simple pay as you go deal where you only pay for what you use, 1pMobile are worth a look, as they only charge 1p per minute, text or MB data.
Like Virgin, 1pMobile use EE's 4G and 3G networks to bring your phone signal (check 1p's coverage here). There aren't any real extra perks like you'd expect with a no-frills deal.

Mobile broadband: WiFi dongle but no data-only SIMs
✔ Limited choice but a decent deviceSee device features
at virginmedia.com
(opens in new window)
If you're after a data-only SIM card to put in a tablet, iPad or dongle, then Virgin Mobile aren't the place to look. They no longer offer them, you can only get a plan with a device included:
Virgin Mobile's mobile broadband plans here are pretty cheap on a monthly basis and we'd describe the pocket WiFi device included as standard quality.
You can choose between a 30-day rolling plan (you'll pay an upfront charge for the device) or a 12-month deal with the same monthly cost but no upfront fee for the device itself.
Overall, it's hard to get excited about Virgin Mobile's mobile broadband but it's reasonably priced and does get you access to a large and fast 4G network from EE.

Virgin Mobile customer service
Customer service: above-average Ofcom complaints
✔ A table you don't want to be near the top ofRead Ofcom's report
at ofcom.org.uk
(opens in new window)
We'd say that customer service is still one of Virgin Mobile's weakest points. The industry regulator Ofcom receives an above-average number of complaints about them.
While the typical UK mobile network were complained about 3 times per 100,000 customers, Virgin's rate was double that at 6 per 100,000 - joint top of the hall of shame with Vodafone.
Things go wrong with every mobile network. What's crucial is that they deal with issues when they come up. Ofcom only get involved if complaints aren't resolved. So a high rate of Ofcom complaints means the network is poor at dealing with issues.
The three main issues that Virgin Mobile customers raised with Ofcom were Virgin failing to deal with complaints, billing, pricing and charges and issues with contracts.
Virgin's complaints rate has come down from 7 per 100,000, so there is some improvement work going on. Most people won't have a problem but it's worth bearing in mind if you want the best shot at a hassle-free experience.

Powerlifter Amanda Lawrence Breaks Her Previous Squatting Record Hitting 258.5kg (570lbs)
Amanda Lawrence has been making 2018 her record-breaking year and is planning to take that mindset into 2019. In the past three months, Lawrence has hit some significant milestones in her career and has set new records for her weight group. That started in October when she broke two American nation-wide records during her participation in the USAPL Raw Nationals. In the second attempt squats she hit the 238.5kg mark, and in the third attempt deadlifts she was able to lift 245kg.
Lawrence was able in a recent squat video that she posted on her Instagram profile to take her weights up to 258.5kg, which is 20kg higher than her USAPL record, and exceeds the IPF world record for her weight group (-84kg) by around 45kg.
In another video that she posted in late November Lawrence deadlifted a staggering 265kg (585lbs).
Lawrence eyes the 2019 Arnold Sports Festival with such great enthusiasm that she's been posting her progress using the #roadto600 hashtag for months now, referring to the 600lbs (270kg) milestone that she aims to hit at some point in 2019. She's also been vigorously preparing for the 2019 Arnold Sports Festival. To that end, Lawrence maintains a preparation squatting program where she squats "three times per week with a low, moderate, and high frequency day," according to her.

Bee Pollen Ingredients, Product Label and Supplement Facts >Xtend Life Bee Pollen Supplement Ingredients Vitamin B5
Energy Support
Vitamin B5 Background and Benefits
Vitamin B5 is a water-soluble vitamin with specific forms that include pantothenic acid and pantothenate. It is an essential nutrient for both humans and animals. Pantothenic acid is named after the Greek word pantothen, meaning "from everywhere."
This name reflects the presence of pantothenic acid in virtually all foods. The most significant dietary sources of this nutrient include whole grains, legumes, meat, eggs, mushrooms, yeast and yogurt.
Health supplements typically provide vitamin B5 in the form of calcium pantothenate, since pantothenate is the most biologically active form of vitamin B5 in humans.
However, pantothenate must be broken down into pantothenic acid before it can be absorbed. Pantothenic acid exists in two stereoisomers, including dextrorotatory (D) and levorotatory (L) forms.
Only D-pantothenic acid is biologically active, while L-pantothenic acid may inhibit the action of the D isomer.
The biological roles of vitamin B5 include the synthesis of coenzyme-A (CoA), which is used in many reactions. CoA transports carbon atoms through the cell by forming acetyl-CoA and similar compounds.
Vitamin B5 is also essential for metabolizing carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
This function involves the use of acetyl-CoA in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Additional uses of CoA include the synthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
Vitamin B5 provides many specific benefits since it is an essential nutrient.
Its most significant benefits include physical energy, healthy cholesterol level management, healthy wound repair and joint function.
A nutritional deficiency of pantothenic acid is rare, given its near universal presence in food. A low energy level is the most significant sign that you may need vitamin B5 supplements.
You may also benefit from vitamin B5 if you suffer from apathetic or irritable moods. Additional signs that vitamin B5 could help you include muscle cramps and numbness.

I have been taking Xtendlife's Natural Energy Bee Pollen for one year now, and will probably never stop taking it. It was recommended to me by my doctor to help with my overall well-being.

South China Sea deal stuck on mere outline
MetadataShow full item record
Classification codePS20170731_17
The historic arbitral ruling issued one year ago on 12 July 2016 was overwhelmingly in favor of the Philippines and against China. The ruling was jubilantly received in Hanoi, which benefits immensely as it invalidates China's nine-dashed lines. But in Manila, the stunning victory became strangely orphaned. The Duterte Administration refused to celebrate even though the ruling legally secured for the Philippines a maritime zone larger than its land area. Six months later President Duterte announced he was "setting aside" the ruling in favor of better economic relations with China. I was aghast at the President's use of the phrase "setting aside." In law to "set aside" a ruling means to nullify, void or abandon it. I sounded the alarm for the Dept. of Foreign Affairs to immediately clarify the President's statement. If accepted by China, his statement would legally bind the Philippines under the doctrine in international law on unilateral declarations by heads of state. The DFA promptly clarified that there was no abandonment of the ruling. The clarification was issued just a few hours before China warmly accepted the President's statement. This prevented it from becoming legally binding on the Philippines. We escaped a self-inflicted national disaster by the skin of our teeth.

About us
SOMOS Educação is Brazil's largest basic education company and one of the largest educational groups in the world. SOMOS, in Portuguese, stands for "we are", in English.
Our schools, educational systems, publishing, products and services for management and complementary education impact on everyday life and transform the lives of thousands of educators and millions of students, along with their families, all around the country.
With a complete portfolio of solutions, organized into an integrated business ecosystem, we enhance the results of Brazilian education, also increasing the profit of the partner schools.
The brands that are part of SOMOS Educação group are quality references. We offer a complete education that prepares our students for Brazilian exams, such as ENEM – National High School Exam, in English – for entrance exams in the best universities in the country, as well as for life.
Behind all of these, there is a team of restless professionals, which share the commitment of making the next Brazilian generations better and better.
VISION – Where do we want to go?
We want to be the most relevant educational group in the world and the main reference for the transformation in our country's education.
MISSION – How will we get there?
By creating integrated educational solutions that enhance the formation of a society that is more creative, collaborative, wise, human and ready for the challenges of life.
VALUES – What are the values that lead our team?
- Innovative;
- Collaborative;
- Brave;
- Restless;
- Doers.
Manifesto SOMOS
We believe that the role of education is not only to prepare students for life, but also to prepare them to change the world.
SOMOS Educação is the brand that moves Brazilian education in many aspects: we have schools, learning systems, publishing, as well as products and services for management and complementary education for students, teachers and parents.
We develop children, teenagers and adults for the 21st century, from generations Y, Z and others to come, for collaboration, nonlinear thinking, on-line relationships, and the future that is yet to be predictable.
Our job is to transform the everyday life of these students into something challenging, that inspires them to think big, teaching them to think on their own and to work better as a group.
SOMOS Educação has a restless team of professionals who share the commitment of making the next Brazilian generations better and better. People that write their own history, face every challenge and grab all the possibilities around them.
WE ARE what we create around us.
OUR Name
Names are supposed to translate the personality of a brand. SOMOS, that in English means "we are", came from that. It translates our personality in a clear way because it was born from the essence of the new brand.
SOMOS suggests a connection between what is in evidence these days: the collaborative world. It's more "we" and less "I". It works by itself, as a corporative brand, and as a credential for the business of the group. It brings together many brands and strategies. "We are what we create around us", this is the essence of the new brand.
Our history
The largest basic education company in Brazil, SOMOS Educação has a large portfolio that includes publishing, learning systems, schools, pre-university courses, language courses, and educational technology. In 2016, SOMOS registered a net income of R$1.8 billion.
Our history starts in 2010, when Ática and Scipione publishing and SER learning system, members of Grupo Abril, were split to create Abril Educação, the company's first name.
At that time, the split made possible to take advantage of the tradition and pioneering on the production of textbooks and paradidactic books, and to explore the potential of the educational segment. Together, the publishing sector counts with a portfolio consisted of approximately two thousand works, which includes pedagogical successes, classics from the literature for children and teens, atlases and dictionaries.
From 2010 until today, the company has invested in organic growth and concluded 13 acquisition of recognized brands and services of excellence, and established strategic partnerships.
To take the opportunity to grow, integrate and diversify its business, the company decided to raise funds in the stock market from an Initial Public Offering (IPO).
The strong expansion of the company attracted founds of private equity. In 2010, BR Investimentos incorporated 24.7% of the capital of Abril Educação, as part of a strategy of concentration of investments in the sector that moves around R$ 36 billion per year in Brazil and that is in continued expansion. In October 2014, Abril Educação concluded the transition to the Novo Mercado of BM&FBOVESPA (Stock Market, Commodities and Futures – Anonymous Society), segment in which companies with the most advanced corporate governance practices are allocated.
In February 2015, Tarpon Investimentos took control of the company, purchasing 40.6% of the company, Aprilpar Participações, that belonged to Civita family.
In June 2015, the company leaves the green color and the symbol of a tree and assumes a new identity that symbolizes the company's current phase:SOMOS Educação. The new brand translates in a clear way the essence that was born in the Brazil's largest basic education and pre-university company.

pseudo-moblog photographic wankery.
really, that's all this is. I got to granville island well before I was supposed to meet people for the One Man Star Wars Trilogy (which was great), so I busted out the camera and took some photos. On the skytrain, I scored the "drivers seat" so I started fiddling with the camera modes and took some photos. I'm still not entirely used to the size of the camera, and I keep reaching for the focus/zoom ring. Old habits, I guess.
thumbnails don't seem to want to work, so here's a list:
- some rocks
- meters galore
- overhead lamp
- nanaimo st skytrain station
- building under construction
- edmonds (?) skytrain station
- a water fountain
- the skytrain bridge
- looking up as you walk down to granville island.
all images are 640x480px, and somewhere between 16 and 46 kilobytes.

I posted my reading plan for next year here on the blog under the tab "2012 Calendar." I have a typical annual plan that I try to fit each year's books into. For instance, I usually devote the winter and spring to (1) works that are harder to read for one reason or another, (2) books I take extensive notes on, (3) and some dessert reading as reward for the tough work. Shakespeare goes in the summer just because that's the way I've been doing it. And so on.
But I didn't follow my usual routine in setting up the schedule for 2012, because I had a special consideration to keep in mind: my university is sending me to Arezzo, Italy, for the spring semester, January to May. A trip to Italy and an extensive, particular reading plan don't necessarily go together easily, and I thought about it for several months before hitting on the solution to the problem.
I first thought of just delaying my reading for half a year or even a whole year. But I realized I couldn't go five months without reading, and I might as well read books on my plan as something else. So then I thought about taking only the longest, densest books to get the most reading time out of the least suitcase space. The Great Books volumes would work well in this way, but I started balking at the thought of checking all that weight.
And then I remembered the Kindle and all the internet sources for classic literature, and my plan started to coalesce. After typing out the complete list of works to read next year and looking online at manybooks.net, gutenberg.org, etc. to see what I could find, I ended up downloading and installing on the Kindle 34 files, all absolutely free. Well, OK, the Kindle, the computer, the electric power, and the internet service are far from free, but the files themselves cost nothing. Then it was just a matter of arranging the list so the Kindle works all came in the first half of the year.
The Greek classics stay in their usual place at the beginning of the year: plays by Euripides and Sophocles, Platonic dialogs, and various books by Aristotle. The translations available online are as old-fashioned as they are free, but then so are the translations in the Britannica set. For Virgil, I downloaded two translations, one verse and one prose, so I'll have a choice. Dickens stays in the winter as the perfect palette cleanser to some of the tough reading, but I moved Trollope up from his usual place in November. I also moved up some Christian theological works since they were available online. I usually like to spread out Aquinas, the Church Fathers, early modern Christian authors, and Augustine over the year so I'm always within sight of reading theology at any time in the schedule, but Dionysius and Edwards reside now in the public-domain etherworld, so they ended up on my Kindle and on my schedule for February and May.
I will take a small number of physical books with me. I write a lot of notes in the pages of the Summa Theologica as well as on my large computer file (well over 200 pages now), so one volume of Aquinas will take the trip with me. I also want to take the Oxford edition of Bleak House: besides the excellent editorial notes, each volume in the Oxford series of Dickens's works includes the transcription of the author's working notes for the book and reproductions of all the glorious original illustrations that did so much to give the reading world its collective idea of how Dickens's characters look. And I'm thinking of taking one other large book just to help occupy fourteen hours of airports and flights on the way home.
But for the most part, I'll read on my Kindle for five months. It's small and light, holds 1500 books, and casts a clear image without much glare, even under the Tuscan sun.

Drug Rehab San Diego
Having a young adult in your household who is addicted to drugs is most likely one of the most difficult and scariest scenarios that a family would have to face. Drugs affect the mind so severely that an addicted person will do and say things that are so out of character, you may not even recognize the person anymore. If this is what you and your family are having to cope with, it's time to find the best Drug Rehab in San Diego, such as Sober Life. We have helped thousands of young adults who are addicted to drugs live healthy, drug-free lives.
Why Choose Sober Life
For over the last several years, Sober Life has shown dramatic, successful Drug Rehab in San Diego for those who can not kick their drug habit on their own. We offer a full line-up of programs that can benefit an addict, no matter which stage of the recovery process they're going through. Although we are the leading recovery facility throughout the state, we provide more of a community atmosphere, rather than a hospital-like setting.
Sober Life not only focuses on the specific addiction that we're treating for, but we also understand that by including family members into the therapy sessions provides a greater chance for success. By bringing the family into the treatment process, it gives them a more clear and detailed understanding of what the addict is going through and how they can offer support, understanding, and love. The patient will also have better knowledge of what their loved ones are also feeling, bringing the family closer together.
Our Services
Sober Life provides specific levels of Drug Rehab in San Diego which are designed for those who are at different stages of their recovery. Our Partial Hospitalization Program provides the highest level of care possible and is developed for those who have just been released from detox. This intensive treatment plan usually lasts from four to six weeks, and the patient will receive in-depth therapy for several hours a day, as often as five days a week.
One of the primary reasons why this therapy works so well for our patients is because they are not confined to an inpatient treatment facility, which means they can continue with their daily lives. Many patients can't take months off from work, school or their family obligations to remain within a full-time facility. Here, the recovering addict can complete their therapy sessions and then move on to their usual routines.
If your addiction had become more than you can deal with and you know there has to be a better way of life, you have just taken the first step on the journey to a happy and drug-free lifestyle. At Sober Life, we offer the best chance for a successful recovery because we know the perils that an addict faces from our personal experiences. Together, we can conquer your addiction and bring hope for a better tomorrow.Drug Rehab San Diego

Writing the Essay
David Foley
A Tolerant Revolt
I love watching the news right after I wake up. My favorite part of the morning used to be watching the news as I munched on my cereal at the kitchen counter. It was full of images and information being divulged by men and women in suits with headlines flying by at lightening speed. We live in a world that moves fast. Information is immediate and anything and everything is right at our fingertips at all times. I noticed during my morning ritual that when tragic events are being reported on, more often than not the focus of the story was the result, the aftermath. Then the newscasters make the shift to what I call "the solution", the course of action to deal with whatever has happened. But both are part of the larger "reaction".
My mother always told me that you see a person's true colors at their darkest hour. Our reaction is what defines us. I'm not terribly familiar with Vermeer's work but in reading Lawrence Weschler's Vermeer in Bosnia a thought occurred to me, Vermeer's work was a reaction to his reality. Vermeer's Netherlands and "all Europe was Bosnia…awash in incredibly vicious wars of religious persecution and proto-nationalist formation, wars of an at-that-time unprecedented violence and cruelty…unspeakable tortures and wholesale devastation"(Weschler 164). Yet his artwork "radiates a centeredness, a peacefulness, a serenity"(164). During Vermeer's lifetime his country went to war three times and the horrors didn't just happen at sea or on the battlefield, "Vermeer's Delft suffered when some 80,000 pounds of gunpowder in the town's arsenal accidentally exploded, killing hundreds"(164). Although most of Europe at the time was experiencing the "climax of both the Reformation and the Counter- Reformation", Holland had a better atmosphere than most yet was still "over-run with refugees from religious conflicts elsewhere"(164). Vermeer brought light into his paintings and a feeling of otherworldly peace and grace. Weschler begins Vermeer in Bosnia by introducing us to an Italian Judge Cassese who, while at the preliminary hearings of the Yugoslav War Crimes Tribunal, "spends a little time with the Vermeer's" to cleanse after a day of discussing some of the horrors of the world (163). Both Vermeer and Cassese use the paintings as a positive reaction to their reality. Now, Vermeer was reacting to the devastation around him and Cassese was coping with his job and turning to the paintings for escape, a chain reaction.
Vermeer was able to do something remarkable with his work; in his own way he used his paintings as a way of "inventing peace"(165). His paintings were the calm within in the storm. It's similar to Weschler describing his college days, during which the Nixon had just invaded Cambodia. The students were of course "up in arms" and trying to figure out "what we were going to do? How were we going to respond?"(165). A visiting religious historian challenged the students to "have a little modesty in our crisis"(165). The historian went on to tell the story of Jesus crossing the Sea of Galilee during a storm. Jesus fell asleep and a storm brewed in the ocean. His disciples woke him up fearing for their life and he told them not to worry. The storm got worse and the disciples woke Jesus again he said 'Peace' and the storm subsided. The historian explained, "In times of storm, we mustn't allow the storm to enter ourselves; rather we have to find peace inside ourselves and then breathe it out"(166). That is what Vermeer did he created his own little sanctuary of peace and then breathed it out into the world through his paintings. It…

Coni, sounds like things starting to re-align for you with JB back, and buzzy resting. Forward march!!ReplyDelete
Your new stitch looks perfect for this time of year. Have fun with it! I hope your appointment goes well for you tomorrow and Buzzy will be back on track. Thinking of you! Stay warm!ReplyDelete
I'm totally considering the Forest Snowfall SAL as well, I've loved that design ever since it came out but for some reason have never completed it. Here's hoping everything goes smoothly for you tomorrow!ReplyDelete
That one looks fun I love all the CCN and LHN patternsReplyDelete
I'm so glad you are joining the Forest Snowfall SAL! I finally got my fabric today but am too tired to begin stitching.ReplyDelete
Sorry to hear about the problems with your fistula. My late husband had problems with his, but in his case, it was stealing blood from the lower part of his arm so they had to go back in and close down some of the diameter. Not too long after that he switched to peritoneal dialysis, which greatly improved his quality of life ( except for the darned cancer that eventually took his life.) Anywhoose, I hope the doctor can figure out what to do for you. So glad JB is back to take care of you. He's a keeper for sure!
Love the new project! Hope all goes well tomorrow!ReplyDelete
Sending prayers that things go more smoothly and you will be stitching that new project soon. Love, hugs & prayers, Cathryn ♥♥♥ReplyDelete
