Mandalay Bay - Print and Digital
We were in charge of rebranding Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. There were some big challenges. Mandalay Bay is at the end of the Strip, away from the core action. And, it was no longer the new kid on the block. So, my partner and I focused on loyalists who who appreciated that it had a beach and wave pool and was really much more of a resort than a hotel. People who were relieved that it was set away from he insanity of the Strip.
We knew if we communicated that there was a true resort on the Vegas Strip, we'd pique the interest of the savvier Vegas visitors. To make a clear distinction between our customer and the typical Vegas tourist, we coined the word "Resortist" which the client trademarked.
We introduced the "Resortist" campaign with ads, billboards and supported it heavily online, and occupancy rates almost doubled within the first year of the campaign's release.

Hi there!
During the summer we were working on several new features for the Sentinel Hub, and some of them are ready for testing. There are also plenty of opportunities this autumn to meet us at the various events. Check the events below. Warmly invited!
Multi-temporal Processing
The real power of remote sensing lies in ongoing monitoring based on multi-temporal processing of data. We added this functionality to our real-time satellite imagery processing service. Although in beta at the moment, you can already test it. Read more about it here.
For those of you interested in exploring this functionality, contact us. Once the feature is ready for wider use, we will let you know.

MODIS - New Dataset Available Soon
We are currently working on adding a new dataset to the Sentinel Hub services - Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) MCD43A4 version 6. The dataset is hosted at Amazon Web Services (AWS) in the U.S., and it is a 16-day product, updated daily. It provides the 500 meter reflectance data of the MODIS "land" bands 1-7.
As many data products derived from MODIS observations describe features of the land, oceans and the atmosphere, they can be used for studies of processes and trends on local to global scales. Let us know if you would like to be notified when we open the dataset for beta testing. More info is coming soon!

But that said, it is at least true that despite the flaws in the oft-presented probability models, you had an alarmingly fortuitous journey in being born. Even if we calculate solely on the direct male line with the figure of your one lucky sperm with the unique set of DNA that makes up your father's genes you inherited amongst 250 million sperm per intercourse, then going back a mere 40,000 generations you only had a 1 in 1.8 x 10403167* chance of making it here.
Now that you have made it here to 2013 after 40,000 generations of 1 x 250 million chances of being the lucky sperm, consider something else – the reality you create by being human is an astoundingly brilliant illusion that requires a human mind to experience it. Here's why;
The following things can be said to exist: table, moon, freedom of choice, chair, love, jealousy, the play Hamlet, a dream about the play Hamlet, the sun, gravity, atoms, fear, admiration, generosity, and a hurricane.
If asked to put them into two distinct groups, most would do the following:
Group 1: table, moon, chair, the play Hamlet, the sun, gravity, atoms, a hurricane.
Group 2: freedom of choice, love, jealousy, a dream about the play Hamlet, fear, admiration and generosity.
The demarcation is usually centred around separating things that exist conceptually or as products of mental cognita (group 2) from things that exist in physical form in the external reality out there (group 1) – not dissimilar to how Kant separated noumena and phenomena.
But I think this is a hugely (and implicitly human) limited view of reality, naturally resulting from our evolution of very limited parts through natural selection. Natural selection built us to survive and understand a world of hunting and gathering – we are not well equipped to understand the full depths and complexities of reality.
To understand reality more proficiently is to understand the following. Both of the above groups represent not too dissimilar objects in that the whole of reality with which humans interface is, in fact, a brilliant illusion constructed by the human mind. That reality is different for every other kind of animal, and maybe without minds to perceive external reality, mother nature would be nothing more than mathematics (or thoughts in the mind of God, as per
's Idealism, if your beliefs lean that way). Berkeley
Either way, the existence of, say, table, moon and chair in the form perceived by humans is no more or less real than the existence of freedom of choice, love and jealousy – in that both sets of objects of study are as they are because of how the human mind interfaces with reality. It's a secret not many people know – but outside of human perceptions, the world doesn't really have atoms, motion, heat, colour, water, rocks, dust and things of that kind. Yes of course these things existed before humans (and other living things) came along, but they did not, and do not, exist as you know them, outside or apart from how you know them – they exist only in non-reified mathematical form, and they are probably existent in the reality of some kind of mathematical patterning that is able to bring to bear the physical substrate you and I know as the material world.
As you begin 2013, have a little smile as you consider that at the beginning of the universe there was a vanishingly small chance of your ever being here – and also that having made it here, the whole of reality with which you interface is a brilliant illusion constructed by virtue of the fact that that is how humans perceive reality and make conceptions within it. If that's not a reason to marvel at being alive, I don't know what is.

We have introduced you previously to Rena, whose blissful song "Open Me Slowly" graced our Kickstarter video in 2011. Rena is also the mix engineer for the musical score we have been developing for the film with composer Joshua Penman. They have recently completed "The Fifth Sacred Thing Theme", which we will be revealing in our new video teaser this week. In the meantime we encourage you to check out Rena's new solo album, released just a few weeks ago, available via the links below.
"Echoes" is the fifth full-length album from seasoned producer Rena Jones…
Unlike Rena's previous releases, Rena has chosen a new path to make a truly collaborative and live studio album while still holding true to her unique take on down-tempo music.
Pulling from her years of experience as a session musician and audio engineer, Rena decided to work with many long time collaborators as well as world renowned artists Sophie Barker on vocals (Zero 7 and Groove Armada), Matt Robertson on modular synth (Bjork, Lamb, Bat for Lashes), Earl Harvin on drums (Seal, Air) Laura Scarborough on grand piano (Quixotic Fusion), a live woodwind section and solo violinist Ilya Goldberg (Emancipator) to name a few.
Rena Jones has taken the electronic world and put a warm soothing coat on it. With her epic compositions in which she uses a variety of electronics, synths, beat machines, sound design, analog gear and traditional instruments, she has earned a coveted place among those who seek to meld the electronic and human elements of music.
Her previous albums have been chosen in the top 25 essential albums of the year on NPR Echoes Radio and has gained her a devoted international following.
Staying true to her roots as a producer, "Echoes" is another concept album exploring the ideas of duality and inspired by the great poetry of Rumi.
Like Rena's previous albums "Echoes" is bound to stay on heavy rotation and become a long time favorite in your play list.

Days of our Lives spoilers reveal that the drama is heating up in Salem as the week progresses. Fans will see a ton of big moments go down as the end of the week draws near.
According to a recent report by Soap Hub, Days of our Lives viewers will watch as Gabi Hernandez (Camilla Banus) is completely shocked when she learns that Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) is willing to go to great lengths to save his wife, Abigail Deveraux DiMera (Marci Miller) from the clutches of his brother, Stefan DiMera (Tyler Christopher).
When Gabi finds out that Chad wants to team up with Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson) and kidnap Abby in order to keep her away from Stefan and get her mental health back in order she will be stunned. All of this is happening because of Gabi's revenge plot against Abby.
As many fans will remember, Gabi was furious with Abigail when she framed her for Andre DiMera's (Thaao Penghlis) murder and then lied on the stand in order to send her to prison. Of course, Abby wasn't in her right mind at the time and was dealing with a split personality disorder, but Gabi couldn't let her anger go, and decided to get some serious revenge on her former best friend.
Elsewhere in Salem, Abby will be ready to fight. She'll turn the tables on Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow) when she catches her trying to drug her tea. Abigail is refusing to be a victim any longer, and she'll hit back at Kate and Gabi as hard as she can.
Meanwhile, Days of our Lives fans will also see a sweet moment take place when John Black (Drake Hogestyn) and Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) finally get to share their wedding day together. Marlena was shot and badly injured during the couple's ceremony, and chaos later ensued when Belle Black Brady (Martha Madison) wanted to take her mother off of life support.
John then came up with a plan to switch Marlena's body with that of her doppelganger, Hattie Adams. The switched worked well but caused a lot of issues for John, who ended up married to Hattie. Now, Marlena is alive and well and ready to marry the love of her life in an intimate ceremony.
In the latest #DAYS, a frantic Sami rushes to find the missing patient.https://t.co/ZsCmioRrzb pic.twitter.com/xP6o5dsQvG— Days of our Lives (@nbcdays) November 8, 2018
In another part of Salem, Days of our Lives fans will see Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney) frantically search for her husband, EJ DiMera, who has only just been returned to her.
However, EJ's mother, Susan Banks (Stacy Haiduk) has other plans. When Susan and Sami finally come face to face, EJ's wacky mother will threaten her daughter-in-law with a scalpel.
Days of our Lives airs weekday afternoons on NBC.

The day finally arrived on Saturday 21st October 2017 for the friends and Associates of the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth to join the Sisters for a day trip from Sydney to Canberra to meet the Associates and their friends for a special gathering to celebrate the 30th Anniversary from the commencement of the Association in Canberra, which in later years branched out into Sydney with gatherings being held in Castle Hill and Marayong.
It was an early start boarding the luxury coach from Marayong. We were blessed with a bright and beautiful morning, the day after a rainy day which cleared the air, following a record-breaking four-month dry spell in 110 years (according to the news on TV). The journey was most pleasant, enhanced with intervals of hymn singing and guitar playing by Sr Bogumila.
On arriving at St John the Apostle Catholic Church in Kippax, the welcoming Canberra Associates greeted us with morning tea in the tastefully arranged Parish hall. They often attend our bi-monthly gathering in Sydney and it was good to meet them on their home ground this time. Some of the Associates present at this gathering, travelled even as far as Victoria.
Sr. Lucyna Fraczek – Provincial Leader, opened the meeting by introducing and acknowledging the presence of the both veteran and much younger Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth. Sr Lucyna then followed with a brief history of the Congregation in Australia and of the founding of the Association in Canberra 30 years ago.
The reflection was delivered by Fr Dominic Gleeson MSC, a Spiritual Director at St Mary's Towers Retreat Centre in Douglas Park, NSW who is almost a regular at the Associates gatherings. In reflecting on Psalm 139, Fr Gleeson explored the depth of God's love for us and how He completely knows each one of us even from before we were formed. This Psalm gives a wonderful awareness of our self-worth. Fr Dominic then explained about God's Covenant with us, which unlike a 'contract' which needs both parties to comply with the terms, a covenant shows the unconditional love of God for us whether we are good or evil.
An example he gave was of us as infants looking into our mothers' eyes for the first time and receiving her tender care even if we did not yet know how to love her back. Isaiah 43: 1-7 and other similar texts demonstrated this intimacy with our Creator.
It was then time for Mass celebrated by Fr Dominic at the Parish Church of St John the Apostle, where he also served for four years in the late nineties. In his sermon, Fr Dominic explained six points to follow as a guide to reaching holiness in our lives. This was to bless, pray, be truthful, encourage others, listening to God in silence, and to be grateful.
A scrumptious lunch prepared by our friends in Canberra, concluded this special Associates gathering where new friendships were made, and others rekindled. It was time for our return trip to Sydney feeling refreshed and serene. All Associates are grateful to the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth for this opportunity for prayerful reflection and to the Canberra Associates for hosting this event.

reedkatie88 avait besoin d'un nouveau design de Personnage ou mascotte et a lancé un concours sur 99designs.
Un gagnant a été sélectionné de 75 designs proposés par 40 designers freelance.
Dr. Dave's Doggy Daycare, Boarding & Grooming
We provide a safe and fun environment for people to bring their dogs when they don't want to leave them home alone or for stylish grooming. Our target audience is young professionals/millenials, dog owners/lovers.
Our current logo is a paw print and we would like a mascot that is a more unique to us and personable. The mascot can be a dog, preferably a smaller breed, such as a French Bulldog, Boston Terrier, Corgi, English Bulldog etc. If possible we would like the logo included (on a t-shirt, hat, bandana etc.) Another idea is that the mascot could be Dr. Dave and have a stethoscope/other doctor materials. I have included a picture of Dr. Dave and some dogs for inspiration, but you do not have to use them. We are looking for a mascot that is fun, fresh, and would look good on a trendy t-shirt and other promotional items.
This should not just be a cartoon dog - this should be a mascot that is obviously connected to Dr. Dave's. Perhaps it is a dog that is dressed as a camp counselor/daycare worker. It could be a dog wearing a Dr. Dave's logo and sunglasses. We want it to have personality and be "cool" to younger people. It should be a character. Looking for clean, crisp lines that could be printed on a t-shirt.

Sophie Saint has been blogging since 2009, and is a contributor at Travelettes.net. Her favourite countries to explore are any that lie in the realm of southeast Asia, and of course the stunning and diverse country that is Australia!
Travelettes is a collaborative blog between 10 ladies who are based all over the world, and it's been featured in European Grazia and Glamour, plus CNN news. Here's Sophie's advice for first-time bloggers looking to make it big.
What advice would you give to travel bloggers who are trying to make a name for themselves?
When trying to make a name for yourself in travel blogging, the key is consistent and quality content. It might be a long road to becoming an established blogger, but don't let that put you off! As long as you keep bringing new and fresh content to your site from unique angles, then the followers and readers will come. If you keep it consistently updated then it will really keep the attention of your audience and make sure they keep coming back - and hopefully turn them into loyal readers who engage and share your blog.
If you find it's too much for you to give your blog all the attention it needs, don't feel like it's a cop out to join forces with a friend/s to produce a brilliant blog! Some great blogs out there are from collaborative efforts, which ease the pressure of constantly getting content out, plus the variety of authors keep it exciting!
And please don't forget that photographs are the key to a great blog. There's nothing worse than reading a blog post that obviously had a lot of thought put into it, but it's peppered with really shit photos. They are what keeps your reader scrolling through your post and paints a picture of your adventure or inspiration, so don't let your images be your downfall!
How can travel bloggers ensure their content's different from everything else out there?
It sounds like a cliché, but to make your content stand out you really need to ensure that your personality shines through your writing. Anyone can write a straight-forward guide to a place (or a 'Top 10 things to do in...'), but what makes one post stand out from another is your voice. Once you've nailed your tone of voice and have your unique stamp all over your writing, then it will really make your blog an interesting one. There's no one else out there who's like you, so that's a good enough reason to keep bringing it!
Would you say that social media's a vital tool for bloggers?
Definitely! It's a great promotional tool and also a fab way to engage with your audience. Sure, Facebook has some mysterious algorithms that may have you questioning whether it's being fair in getting your work out to your Facebook audience, but the sharing factor will soon see your referrals on your blog's dashboard pin pointing Facebook as a major contributor to your traffic.
However, even if you have every social media channel under the sun proclaiming your latest blog posts, you should never neglect SEO. If you get that right, you'll see that without much promotion people are still finding your blog from Google searches which is paramount. Keep keywords in mind when writing, but don't let that dictate your content into nonsensical copy stuffed to the brim with golden keywords.
Which articles/stories did far better than you expected, and have you ever been surprised by a lack of interest in a piece which you thought would do really well?
I was really surprised that my '6 Ways Prague Will Romance You' post did so well, as I really felt I was just outlining some real touristy spots! I try to steer clear of going on too much about the typical sights of a place as people can easily find out about them by searching on Lonely Planet. But obviously Prague is a place that captured many people's hearts and they appreciated the piece.
I was quite surprised that my Borneo posts didn't do very well. For me, Borneo is this mysterious and exciting place that is jam-packed with jungle and monkeys, but it just didn't hit the readers as hard as I thought it would! It made me a bit deflated, but the lovely comments made up for the low traffic. I just had to remind myself that numbers aren't the be-all and end-all. Just write and only hit publish when you're proud of your piece.
How do you deal with suggestions, praise and criticism from your readers?
You do have to take criticism on the chin. Working in the digital world means that you do get Miss Know-It-All and Mr Troll popping up sporadically, but that's just the way it is when you're putting yourself out there on the internet. Of course it sucks when they've picked up on a mistake you've made, but it acts as a reminder to proof-read a few more times in the future!
Suggestions are great fodder for future blog posts! If someone comments with a question regarding food in a place that you've written about - but you neglected to mention the cuisine - then boom! That's the sequel sorted! If someone asks you how you managed to pack with only hand-luggage for a cold weekend break - kerching, you've got another blog post idea from someone who is really keen to read it! Inspiration can come from anywhere, but sometimes your readers can come up with the best stuff. And when they praise you, it makes it all worth it. To put your writing out there and to have positive feedback is just the best feeling! That's what keeps me blogging when I'm sometimes flagging.
How often should a blogger be posting new content online, and should most of it be written content? Can video content be just as popular?
I'm lucky as I write with a great team of girls who are constantly bringing out new posts. It makes my life easier as I'm not bound to a strict blog schedule, but I have to make sure I get a certain amount of blog posts out to ensure that I'm doing my part in supporting the site. We try to get 5 - 7 blog posts out a week, but that's quite a lot for a solo blogger! I would say that 3 blog posts a week would be great for a blogger and quite achievable.
Video content can be just as popular, but I've never got into the vlogging scene. We've made the odd video on Travelettes (my favourite was of our first meet-up in Croatia) but it's something we haven't indulged in too much. It takes a lot of time to edit a video well and we find writing slots in nicely with our day-to-day lives.
Which travel bloggers do you rate at the moment?
I'm a big fan of The Travel Hack and The Travelling Light. Katie's (Travelling Light) photos are just stunning and have a lovely atmosphere about them! I also can't get enough of Our Wild Abandon's instagram feed. Their style is so kick-ass and they're really cool chicks. Also, my other blog, Saints on a Plane, should be checked out (shameless plug!).
The Free People blog isn't quite a travel blog, more of a lifestyle/fashion/travel bible, but I get lost in their pages! Their images are always so dreamy and who can resist the Pinterest perfect travel quotes they produce?

Christians Attacked by Hindu Extremists
Hindu extremists attacked a group of Christians while they were praying, beating them with rods, breaking chairs, and destroying Bibles and song books. As neighbors watched, the radicals hung garlands of shoes around the necks of five women and three men before parading them down the street to a Hindu temple for a forced reconversion ceremony. By the time police arrived hours later, an evangelist named Karun had been beaten so severely with an iron rod that he had suffered fractures to his legs, hands and body. Several months later, surgeons were forced to amputate one of his legs because it was not healing properly. "A person who was walking around sharing the gospel, organizing and gathering people for prayer and working to earn for his family is now sitting helpless, but hoping for a greater reward from the Lord," a VOM worker said. Pray for Karun and his family as well as the others affected by this attack.

Have you ever wanted to stand up and cheer at a show? I mean really stand up and shout. Like you were at a football game and your favorite team just scored a touchdown? That's what was happening at the Amway Center in Orlando, FL back on Saturday, December 17. Only, this crowd was standing and cheering with Christmas fervor! The progressive and eclectic music of Trans-Siberian Orchestra had thousands of people jumping up and down, pumping their firsts in the air for perfectly orchestrated Christmas rock music; a show that has lights which rivals any that this music reviewer has seen! The production quality was unmatched: lighting structures raised and lowered, catwalks lowered down for performers to walk across, and a huge fire ball was released from just behind the sound booth in the middle of the giant arena.
The visuals, although amazing, still had a tough time to surpass the show that the the band and vocalists were putting on. Gabriela Guncikova, the lead vocalist of the evening, was simply amazing. Not only did she sing beautifully, she also sustained long, gorgeous notes that had people on their feet before she finished dazzling them with her talent.
A plot had been woven through the night by the storyteller who's narration led us from song to song. A Christmas story that may as well have been written by Eddie Van Halen. As the show progressed, the crowd was excited time after time when fire and snow were both introduced, as well as lasers. It was really noticeable that everyone on stage loves their job as they showered the crowd with smiles and rock-powerstances. The show finished with a 25 minute version of The Mountain off of their 2005 album "Night Castle" which featured lead guitarist Angus Clark on a 20-foot tall raised platform with all lights on him as fire bursts flowed from left to right and back again behind him.
Needless to say this show was amazing and I personally would recommend it if you like Christmas and rock music. You should definitely go and see Trans-Siberian Orchestra whenever they come to a city near you!

Please Rotate Your Device
Thank You!
Net rent, base rent, minimum rent, gross rent, additional rent, TMI and CAM are all jargon terms used by landlords and commercial real estate agents. They all refer to money to be paid by tenants to landlords, and some of them refer to profit for the landlord (net, base and minimum), while others refer to rent to be paid by tenants that cover building expenses (additional rent, TMI and CAM).
The best way to think of it is that the net rent is the net profit for the landlord.
Why so many synonyms for such a simple concept?
Who knows!?
We have seen plenty of leases in which the landlord will define the net rent in the definitions section, and then reference it as basic rent and minimum rent throughout the rest of the lease.
Additional rent, TMI (taxes, maintenance and insurance), and CAM (common area maintenance) are all terms used to describe the carrying costs of the building.
Think of them as the landlord's overhead.
A gross lease is just the (Base Rent or Net Rent or Minimum Rent) PLUS the (Additional Rent or TMI or CAM).
Note that landlords have an incentive to keep the overhead low.
That allows them to be competitive with other buildings.
With a low additional rent a landlord can either beat the market on overall price, or can match the market but have more profit (with a lower additional rent but a higher net rent).
For example (from a recent case study in Dallas, Texas):
Building 1 - $20 net rental rate, plus additional rent of $25 is $45 gross per square foot per annum. Therefore a 1,000 square foot tenant would pay $45,000 in annual rent ($45 gross x 1,000) and the landlord would retain $20,000 in profit ($20 net x 1,000).
Building 2 - $20 net rental rate, and the landlord operates his building more efficiently and additional rent is $22. Therefore that same 1,000 square foot tenant would pay $42,000 in annual rent ($42 gross x 1,000) and the landlord would retain the same profit ($20 net x 1,000).
The Building 2 landlord now has the choice to keep the net rent the same and offer a lower total cost to tenants, or can dip into that savings via a higher net rent, and therefore higher profit.
For example, if he increased the net rent to $22, his profit would increase by $2,000 annually, while also offering a $1,000 annual savings to prospective tenants vs. Building 1.
It depends.
Most landlords like high net rental rates (a brilliant observation brought to you by our research department).
The real benefit is the powerful value it has on building valuation (think of it as every dollar of net rent is about a 6x multiple on the value of the building).
Therefore landlords usually prioritize achieving high rental rates, even if they have to give you other incentives (like free rent, cash and tenant allowances).
As office space is more of a commodity than retail or industrial space, it is not uncommon to have a 5 year lease at a flat rental rate.
A 10 year equivalent often would have a $2 bump on the back 5 years (though this can vary from market to market).
Retail and industrial landlords are normally more keen on seeing a lift on net rent each year.
Five percent is the general rule.
Keep in mind that markets go up and they go down.
Most landlords want to take the rent in the last year of a lease and keep escalating that into the renewal term.
Ensure that if the market has gone down that they renewal rental rate be lowered from what you paid in the last year of your lease.

So Um...Can Someone Help Me With My Lease?
Aw shucks. Thought you'd never ask. This short video should give you a better idea of how we may be able to work together (and yes, that's a grown man wearing a referee uniform).
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
1) Are escalations fixed or tied to a variable metric, like a consumer price index?
2) Is there a back up index in case the current index becomes discontinued?
3) Does it include or exclude amortized incentives like a tenant improvement allowance?
4) Is there a cap on the escalations?
5) Are any items excluded from the cap because they are beyond the landlord's control (for example, realty taxes)?
6) Is the tenant protected if the escalations exceed the then fair market value?
7) Can the adjustments also go down as well as up?
8) If adjustments are made by appraisal, who chooses the appraiser(s), who pays, and what are the qualifications of such appraisers?
A gross lease is an all in number for the tenant while the landlord takes the risk of increases to the additional rent.
The good news is that if overhead increases (sometimes beyond the landlord's control - such as realty taxes), then it is on the landlord to absorb that cost.
The bad news is that you may be overpaying, and further if costs go down they are not passed along to you, as would be the case of a net lease.
1) Is rent payable proportionate for partial months?
2) Is there a late fee charge or interest on late rental payments? Are these fees excessive?
3) If the interest rate floats with prime, is it enforceable in your jurisdiction?
4) Is the rent late by a specified date (for example 5 days into the next month), or by notice from the landlord?
5) Is payment of rent determined by the tenant mailing or the landlord receiving?
6) Is there rent abatement in the event the landlord is delayed in providing possession of the premises?
7) Is there a personal indemnification in the lease?

I was the member of a photography club and our understanding of the law was that if a person is in a public place then you can take and publish what you like. Audax is on public roads, so when riding there will not be an issue.
Desperate attempt to bring back the thread on topic (see how good a husband I am!)It would be good for the armchair lawyers to start a new thread; LEL is a quite big team with a lot of resources for this kind of stuff. You don't need to be worried about us doing anything bad with the photos I can assure you we are well meaning! She also has a special adviser for French administrative shenanigans! .............

Dining alone can be cool (seriously!), but dining with friends is awesome, and therefore by extension, party dinners are surely the greatest thing of all time -- so we scoured the capital for the very best venues where you can reach this higher festive plane.
Hix Oyster & Chop House
Doing pretty much exactly what it says on the tin, the Oyster & Chop House will put on a private party for up to 35 peeps, and'll feed them with pearl factories (from a selection of about half a dozen native varietals coming fried/fresh) & chops like Tamworth farm pork, hanger steaks w/ bone marrow, or veal cooked in sage butter. If even that won't sate your heaving appetites, then you can also get a suckling pig.
Viet Grill
If you give this recently refurbed & reopened, bright Shoreditch diner a couple of days notice, then you and up to eight accomplices can get yourself a huge table laid out w/ Saigon suckling pig & lobsters (for a mere £38 per person), or a yet-more-reasonable seven-dish beef feast.
Lady Ottoline
This Bloomsbury-based gastro is from the dudes behind the award-magnet The Princess of Shoreditch, and follows in her footsteps w/ two floors of polished Victorian splendor. Head upstairs, and you'll find a private room where you can land yourself and 16 buds a banquet in the form of either a caramelized apple-sided pot-roasted whole suckling pig served in its juices, or a 24hr-braised whole haunch of venison, Scotch broth & dumplings, and finally a whole roasted lamb shoulder.
1 Lombard Street
Come for the Michelin star, stay for the private dining area that literally has its own kitchen, has iPads on the tables to serve as menus/drink ordering devices, and boasts its own silver service meat trolley. Previous years have seen them bust out a party-feeding Tudor roast; that's a 14 bird-within-a-bird feats, starting with a quail, moving up to a teal, wood pigeon, and mallard, then finishing up with a peacock, and an American wild turkey... that's all stuffed into a goose.
This quintessentially French spot comes courtesy of Terence Conran, and the whole resto is indeed decked out like it were a super-nice Habitat store, and's topped by a sleekly minimal heated rooftop, which is closed off from the elements by wraparound window panes that give it a view over the whole of East London. Get a group up there, and you can find yourself dining on sumac & melon roasted baby chickens, grilled lobsters, and whole sea breams.
The Red Lion and Sun
So, this Hampstead gastro is so good with its feasting, they even have a spit roast menu. That's right. Choose from either a whole Welsh lamb, an 80kg hog, or if there isn't an entire division of you, just a suckling pig, then get it flanked by up to nine sides like honey roast carrots, hand-cut chips, green beans, etc.
In a huge hall dominated by a Damien Hirst formaldehyde-tanked cow & chicken, there lies a private table set in an elevated, balcony-like space at the end. Here, loftily perched private diners can fully play out the whole ethos of the restaurant, and fill their table with just whole roast chickens, or huge cuts of beef, ranging from single-seeing ribs, to gigantic 1kg porterhouses for three, all of which, by the way, are hung onsite in a damn Himalayan salt chamber.
St. John
They have a Michelin star, and've been in the top 50 restaurants in the world for a decade now, and they're here to provide you with a feast the likes of which you've never seen/had/vividly dreamed about before. They can create bespoke menus, with all the food coming out on huge platters, with current centerpiece favorites being a whole suckling pig (that "will feed 14-16 people") as well as roast beef on a "dripping trencher", that is, loaves of bread specially cut to soak up the delicious, delicious fat.

Blood, guts, gore and slime. METHOCEL™ is an industry standard for some of the most realistic looking special effects products. As the thickening agent in artificial blood, METHOCEL™ can offer a range of viscosities depending on the flow needed. It also allows for large quantities to be produced at low costs and has a long shelf life. Additionally, METHOCEL™ is commonly used to make slime. Its ability to be dissolved in cold water enables users to make slime on demand.
Artificial blood is commonly used for theatrical or medical training purposes. METHOCEL™ cellulose ethers are extremely effective thickeners used in artificial blood as well as special effect slime. Because it has a broad range of viscosities, METHOCEL™ helps formulators to achieve a variety of consistencies, whether that be a thin runny product or a thick stringy product. Because METHOCEL™ comes in dry form it is easy to make small or large quantities as needed. Additionally, METHOCEL does not require hot water to dissolve; therefore, it can be used on site.
Some very memorable theatrical moments were created because of the unique special effects used to take the audience imaginations straight into the production. METHOCEL™ is used as a thickener in special effects products, most commonly blood and slime, to give the special effects products their desired consistency.

1999 Greater Boston Track Club Invitational
Gordon Indoor Track Facility
Harvard University
Sunday, January 24, 1999
The Invitational Miles were the featured events of the meet.
Kathy Fleming of New Balance set a new meet record in the mile of 4:35.25, breaking the previous record of 4:36.25 set by three-time Olympian Lynn Jennings in 1990. Kathy had earlier placed third in the women's elite mile at the New Balance Games in January with 4:41.05. Kathy was paced by a teammate for the first four laps of the race, and soon after her rabbit dropped off the track, Kathy pulled away from the crowd to win by over nine seconds. Kathy ran with healthy competition, including Maribel Sanchez (4:48.20, Central Mass Striders, Dartmouth graduate, a multi-all-American in track and cross-country, seventh in the recent USATF Club Cross-Country National Championships) and Jennifer Toomey (4:50.79, Central Mass Striders, ran 2.04 for 800 meters in the USATF New England Championships this past last spring).
Darin Shearer of Central Mass Striders won the men's mile in 3:59.94. The crowd was absolutely screaming as Darin rounded the last turn, digging deep for a blazing and perhaps agonizing push to the finish, and the crowd shook the arena when the scorers announced an unofficial time of 3:57. In the final results, however, Darin had to give up those two precious seconds, still a brilliant finish to what was one of the most exciting races of the day. In a terrific Boston Globe article by Shira Springer, Darin said, "I've broken four minutes twice outdoors, but this was the first time indoors and the first time at Harvard, which was very exciting for me because I ran here in college. My parents saw me break four minutes today for the first time. My mother was in tears." A Runner's World Online article the next week referred to Darin's mile as "the fastest indoor track mile in the world last weekend" (but pointed out the next day that Mark Carroll had run a 3:57.52 mile, the fastest indoor time of the year to date, on the Friday before the weekend). Darin ran with a talented field, including Dereck Treadwell (4:04.30, New Balance, 3:42 in the 1500 meter Olympic trials, the equivalent of a 4:00 minute mile) and Neville Davey (4:06.17, Boston Athletic Association, 1998 Brown University graduate from Ireland, with a 4:01 mile).

Alda Cossi of the Liberty Athletic Club won the women's master mile in 5:31.77 by a lead of almost ten seconds. For the first time in a long time, there was a complete field for the women's master mile. Part of the draw might have been a $250 prize from New England Runner for the first woman to break the mark of 5:12.4 set by Liberty's own Barbara Pike back on March 14, 1982 (and $100 and $50 to the next two women to break 5:12.4). Cossi ran 5:14 a few years back, and the race was a dual between Liberty Athletic Club and Westchester Puma Track Club from New York. The other finishers were Sharon Vos (5:41.61, Westchester Puma), Eileen Troy (5:41.66, Westchester Puma, third in her age division at this year's Fifth Avenue Mile), Tina Marie Varzeas (6:01.27, unattached), Susan O'Connor (6:17.41, Boston Athletic Association), and Karen Lein (6:18.07, Liberty Athletic Club).

This year's meet was filled with breath-taking sprints to the finish, but perhaps the defining moment of the meet was James Njorge of New Balance setting a new meet record of 1:47.86 in the men's 800 Meter Invitational, beating the time of 1:48.08 set by Jack Armour of Westchester Puma in 1990, and setting the best time in the nation this season, a time that should top the national lists for weeks. Njorge was followed by Ned Brooks (1:49.13, Seton Hall, wearing 312) and Erik Nedeau (1:49.64, New Balance, wearing 223). Brooks lead the race from beginning, but Njorge and Nedeau kicked off the final turn with Njorge surging to the finish, while Brooks held off Nedeau to hang on to second place. (Photo by Frank Monkiewicz.)
Two other meet records were set today, in addition to the pictures above of Kathy Fleming's record in the mile and James Njorge's record in the 800 meters: Fila's Jonathan Carter ran 6.22 in the 55-meter dash, beating New York Pioneers' Neville Hodge's time of 6.24 in 1993; and BAA's Anna Nogren threw the 20-pound weight 65'00.00″, beating Alex Given's throw of 59'11.50″ in 1993.
In the women's 800 Meter Invitational, Amory Rowe (569) and June Snow wore the yellow of the Central Mass Striders to first and second place with times of 2:11.18 and 2:12.23, respectively. (Photo by Frank Monkiewicz.)
The 55 meter dash and high hurdles provided high-speed thrills. (Photo by Frank Monkiewicz.)
Club president Gary Snyder ran 7.95 in the 55 meter dash, a time that was fast enough for him to win his heat in the masters 55 meter race up at the Dartmouth Relays in January. (Photo by Frank Monkiewicz.)
Teams from as far as Essex County College (New Jersey) and University of Kentucky came to compete in the meet. (Photo by Frank Monkiewicz.)
The last heat of the men's mile was almost the Greater Boston heat. Look at all those red shirts go! Going from front to back (right to left) the red shirts are Ben Nephew, Nasser Sharara, Cam Dauler, Mike Wyatt, Kevin Lohner (with a few red shirts hidden behind him), and Mark Hickman. (Photo by Frank Monkiewicz.)
Coach Tom Derderian ran in the master's mile and the 3,000 meter race. (Photo by Frank Monkiewicz.)
We may think we bend over backwards to please our coaches at practice, but few of us can match this performance. Boston University actually sent two jumpers to the meet: Christine Geilfus jumped 1.58m (5'02.25) and Alison Wainer jumped 1.43m (4'08.25). (Photo by Frank Monkiewicz.)
We also have pictures from other club events.

Mark Kingon has hit the ground running after being appointed interim Sars Commissioner following Tom Moyane's suspension.
Moyane was suspended with immediate effect earlier this week after refusing President Cyril Ramaphosa's calls for him to resign.
Kingon is said to have greater knowledge and experience of the revenue service than his predecessor.
He has been with Sars since its establishment and worked his way through the ranks to become the Group Executive for Relationship Management within Business and Individual Taxes.
He speaks to CapeTalk's Kieno Kammies about his new role..
Read: Mark Kingon named acting Sars boss following Moyane suspension
It's been a very interesting journey and all I want to do is serve. Serve our staff and most importantly serve the people of South Africa.— Mark Kingon, Acting Commissioner of Sars
Anything that's been done incorrectly in the servicing of our clients we want to make sure that we do it better.— Mark Kingon, Acting Commissioner of Sars
Kingon says Sars will be focusing first on its key mandate of revenue collection and trade facilitation. He says they will be taking seriously the principles of 'batho pele'.
We need to work together and not see ourselves as opposing each other but work together to improve the service of our clients.— Mark Kingon, Acting Commissioner of Sars

Yes, I've harped on and on about You Can Count on Me on this blog (for some retrospective love, check out my year 2000 rehash), but there's no denying its brilliance. And to top it off, it seems it was not appreciated in its time, making it all the more frustrating and perfect at the same time. But thanks to Julia Roberts' career-best performance in Erin Brockovich and Gladiator, it got almost completely overshadowed, awards-wise. Where to start? The amazing performances from Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo are probably a good place. Add to that an amazing script from Kenneth Lonergan (why does this man not work more often?) and a great, simplistic backdrop (small town in the Catskills), and you've got a quintessential family drama. So even though Roberts delivered an arguably great performance, I can't really see how she managed to outshine Linney in easily her career-best. Plus the flick gifted us with the breakthrough performance of underrated actor Ruffalo. Well done all around.
Standout Performance: Linney's got this one in the bag here as Sammy Prescott, the single mom and bank clerk whose small-town boredom leads to inter-office romance and household drama. Definitely one of the best performances of the decade.

If you're a trend-watcher, you'll know that Jordan will be big travel news for 2019. Dubbed the Middle East's Oasis of Calm, this fascinating destination is safe, just a five-hour flight from the UK and is packed with more than its fair share of world-heritage sites and 'Lawrence of Arabia' scenery. In recent years, it's been slowly woo-ing back visitors, but now, the word is out: Jordan looks set on welcoming 7 million visitors by 2020.
If you'd like to beat the rush (although for those who know us, we've been perennial, steadfast fans), then take a look at the myriad of things there are to see and do there. We've selected our top ten things to do in Jordan with kids to give you a taster (or jump straight to our Jordan family holidays section if you want to get cracking on planning a trip).
1 – Watch a Gladiator show in Jerash
You might think that Italy, specifically Rome, would be the only place in the world where a Roman army, gladiators and chariot racing performances can be experienced in a genuine setting….. but you'd be wrong. The stunning ruins of Jerash are beautifully preserved and host regular chariot 'races', complete with actors dressed in Roman clothing. It's a history lesson brought to life and a real step back in time when travelling to Jordan with children.
2 – Follow a secret tunnel in Shobak castle
If you're claustrophobic, look away now. Shobak castle, built by Crusader King Baldwin I in 1115, is an imposing sight, perched as it is on a dramatic hill offering amazing views of the surrounding desert – and plenty of opportunity to spot invaders. Whilst it's an impressive ruin to walk around, and has a fascinating history (repelling several attacks by Saladin) which will be explained by your guide, it's the 375 steps down a secret passageway that lead to a ladder and 'escape hatch' which are the most exciting for kids. Bring a torch and your imagination.
3 – Float in the Dead Sea
It's one of Jordan's most iconic images – people floating, starfish like, on the hypersaline waters of the Dead Sea. No matter what your age, when travelling to Jordan with kids you'll love the other-worldly experience. And, if you cover yourself in the therapeutic mud beforehand, you might emerge looking twenty years younger.
4 – Be wowed by the 'Lost City' of Petra
It's the most famous of Jordan's highlights (see our itinerary Highlights of Jordan for more), a vast city carved out of the sandstone more than 2,000 years ago. The kids may not have heard of the Nabateans, who painstakingly carved tombs, facades and temples out of the rose-pink rock, but they may be familiar with the image of the Treasury, immortalised in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Wandering around the 800 individual monuments that include buildings, tombs, baths, funeral halls, temples, arched gateways and colonnaded streets, you'll be amazed by both its beauty and scale. And if anyone gets tired, you can hitch a lift on a horse, donkey, camel or horse-drawn cart. Click here for 40 historical facts about Petra.
5 – Hike Wadi Feynan
For older, more active children, a day hike through Wadi Feynan, one of the largest seasonal river beds in Jordan makes for an almost Mars-like experience. Around 15km in length, you'll be accompanied by a guide and mule (which can be used for tired children, just in case) through this extraordinary and dramatically beautiful desert valley. Your Bedouin guide will cook flatbread and warm mint tea on a fire for lunch. The trip ends at one the best eco-resorts in the world, described by Forbes magazine as, 'a shining star among the green lodges worldwide'. For other examples of what to do with teens, take a look at our 'Active Jordan for Teens' sample itinerary.
6 – Make like Lawrence of Arabia in Wadi Rum
Anyone researching a trip to Jordan with kids, will know that Wadi Rum (aka 'The Valley of the Moon') is a country highlight – a jewel in the desert crown. Whilst there's many ways to experience it (spending the night in a 'bubble tent' under the stars a particular highlight) kids will love clambering over the dramatic, red-sand-and-rock scenery, imagining themselves as modern day Lawrences of Arabia.
7 – Experience one of the best bike rides on earth
The Telegraph have described the cycle ride from Madaba to the Dead Sea, an all-down-hill bike ride which entails dramatic switch backs en route, as a world-class cycling route, albeit a surprising one: the most surprising cycling destination on earth. Although this article describes a slightly longer route than the one we take, you'll never forget whizzing down the eternal hill, surrounded by desert and dramatic landscape down to the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth. (For more family bike rides see our cycling blog.)
8 – Visit Little Petra
It may be smaller than its larger namesake but 'Little Petra', (Siq al-Barid in Arabic) but what it lacks in size, it more than makes up for thanks to its exclusive appeal. Whilst also a Nabatean archaeological site with buildings carved into the sandstone canyons, Little Petra is, unlike its big brother, gloriously crowd free. North of 'the real' Petra, and part of the Petra Archaeological Park but accessed separately, you can marvel at its majesty in peace and quiet. Travelling to Jordan with kids (particularly younger ones)? Do go!
9 – Take a camel trek into the desert
As you may have gathered, a family trip to Jordan with kids is an action-packed adventure. With just 27km of coastline, though, desert is its big selling point. And what better way to experience it than taking a camel trek amongst the towering sandstone cliffs of Wadi Rum There's a reason why these almost comical beasts are known as ships of the desert. We'll let you find out for yourselves. #nospoilers
10 – Haggle for souvenirs in a Jordanian souq
A trip to any Middle Eastern country should always include a visit to the local souq, a market where your senses will thrill at the sights, sounds, tastes and smells, whether you're shopping for souvenirs or simply soaking up the unique atmosphere. Whilst the capital, Amman, has the most souqs, every one is a little different, depending on what you want. Al Balad in downtown Amman is the city's oldest, whilst souq Jara is known for its crafts and food. Here's a handy article on the capital's ten best markets and souqs.

Teaching Buddhist Monk
You want to teach English to Buddhist monaks in Nepal as volunteer? that is possible with Mamata volunteers
Nepal is a birth place of Buddha and Buddhism. Though, predominantly a Hindu country, Nepal has a significant Buddhist influence, beautiful monasteries all over Nepal shows the popularity of Buddhism in Nepal. In Kathmandu, Buddhism is also practiced by Tibetan people who are in exile in Nepal. Volunteers interested in working at a Buddhist monastery mostly teach English education to monks and immerse themselves in Buddhist culture. This is a perfect project if you are interested in Buddhism and the life of Buddhist monks.
What skills do I need ?
Though no teaching experience or skill is needed, volunteers joining the Buddhist monk teaching programs in Nepal should have good English both written and verbal. Volunteers are expected to be flexible and patient at these monastery in Nepal.
What are my responsibilities ?
As a volunteer in Mamata's Monk teaching project in Nepal or India, you will primarily work as English instructors in the schools of Tibetan or Buddhist Children's Village. You will teach English to Tibetan or Buddhist monaks or kids for 3-4 hours a day. In addition to English teaching, volunteers will assist in other school extra curricular activities and administration. In the evening, you can organize games, drawing, singing, dancing, and other creative education and extra curricular activities.
Morning and late evening time is free. If you love Buddhism, this is the perfect time to join meditation, rituals, prayers, and songs with the Buddhist monks. This project gives the volunteer a perfect opportunity to immerse oneself in Buddhist religion and lifestyle.
Where do I live and eat ?
During volunteering in the Buddhist monastery, volunteers will stay in a hostel (mostly located inside the compound of the temple school). This hostel also acts as home for monks and kids. Mamata arranges a separate room and shared bath for volunteers. If you are highly interested in staying on with a host family, that can also be arranged. You can find the details of arrangements for room/food in the placement sheets provided you.

The most important indulgence of the day and it features last weeks Trending topic from The Wrap: Stripes!
"For this upstart challenger brand, Minneapolis design consultancy Ideas that Kick created a packaging system that communicates taste, quality and adult indulgence to consumers at first glance. Each bag brings an entirely new retail concept to life. "We delivered a retail experience as delicious as cereals with such one-of-a-kind flavors as True Blueberry Duet, Caramel Pecan Joy and Chocolatey Banana Bliss," says Kick president and brand strategist Mary Kemp. "Our packaging suggests it's okay for breakfast to be a little treat. Imagine a bistro dessert in your cereal bowl." "Our simple, sophisticated color story and clean, elegant type define Scrumptious as the indulgent alternative within the adult breakfast cereal category," adds Kick executive creative director Stefan Hartung. "Small stand-up bags create a shelf presence totally unlike our client's competition. And we delivered bags that are the opposite of another boring box with a bowl full of brown stuff on the front." You can look for Scrumptious in Walmart cereal aisles. Select flavors are being tested in regional markets."
