Here's 'Official Shortlist' Of New Potential James Bond Actors
It's been a few weeks since the media wildly speculated who'd be the next actor to slip on James bond's iconic tuxedo so you'll no doubt be thrilled to know that the studio behind the popular spy films have finally drawn up a shortlist of actors to take on the role.
Unsurprisingly the Luthor star Idris Elba has made the cut along with other big names Michael Fassbender, Luke Evans, Charlie Hunnam, Aidan Turner along with Tumblr fan favourite and Taylor Swift's paramore, Tom Hiddleston.
MGM studios, who produce the Bond films, are the ones who've drawn up the shortlist to replace Daniel Craig, but they're already warning that becoming an international man of mystery isn't going to be easy
A studio insider explained to The Sun that 'to get anyone to take over from Daniel will be a tough job' but that the studio had confidence in Elba because of his gravitas, talent and box office appeal.
The insider added:
There will be a lot of trepidation about a new Bond, but Idris' talent and proven appeal gives executives a lot of heart.
Idris may be a little older than the other candidates but he looks like he is still in his 30s.
MGM are confident that they are in a pretty strong place with a raft of talent available.
Meanwhile the person who will ultimately make the decision, EON Productions franchise boss Barbara Broccoli, has been spotted meeting with two actors who aren't on the list.
James Norton who played the psychotic Tommy Lee Royce on the BBC's surprisingly gritty Yorkshire based thriller, Happy Valley and Billy Elliot actor Jamie Bell.
The studio whistle-blower finished by saying:
While the MGM executives have an idea, Barbara makes the ultimate decision on the role. Once Barbara decides who she wants to direct, then the audition process will be vital.
Daniel Craig, who's still hasn't officially quit as Bond, most likely won't return for a fifth Bond film after his experiences filming Spectre left him feeling a little tense.
Craig rather dramatically said he'd rather slash his wrists than play James Bond again which while I'm sure is an exaggeration isn't the best things you can say about a job.

You know what I'm talking about (with this post title). The YouTube autoplay feature that automatically plays a video similar or related to what you just watched. Second to the Netflix autoplay feature, of course, but still problematic.
My skating friends and I send each other YouTube links constantly. One of my coworkers is a fellow skating fan, and we love trading links to our favorite performances (I've got two in my inbox right now, from the 2017 Europeans exhibition, awaiting my viewing).
But this is when things get dangerous. This is when I get into a YouTube skating hole, and find myself watching way too many programs in a row, for far too long. The original dance from the 2006 Olympics! Vintage Michelle Kwan! Virtue and Moir's exhibition program to Justin Bieber.
I know I'm not the only one who's been there.
And sometimes this skating binge-watching leads to the rediscovery of a forgotten gem, like this lovely exhibition program by U.S. ice dancers Meryl Davis and Charlie White, from nearly 10 years ago. This was one of my all-time favorite programs of theirs, to "Beyond the Sea" by Bobby Darin, and you should check it out for your Flashback Friday:

Streamlining Your Life
People frequently complain about a lack of time. Is there a realistic way can we steal back precious hours for what we really want to do? Streamlining your life may be the answer. Call a halt on "putting up" with things, which is essentially a trap that consumes energy and is not good for you.
We live in one of the most affluent cultures that the world has ever seen, with unprecedented access to technology designed to simplify our lives. And yet time is in short supply, taken up with people, possessions, tasks, habits, rituals and routines that make us anxious, drain our energy and do not give pleasure or add value to our lives.
John Lennon of the Beatles famously said: "Life is what happens when you are making busy other plans." And busyness is contagious. While we are preoccupied with our self-imposed obligations, ambitions and endless to-do lists, our real friendships get neglected, our bodies expand and migrate south, our children's childhoods pass, and we never get around to writing that novel/taking that trip/learning that skill or whatever our real desire or passion is.
It takes energy to be really happy with your life. Make a note of what's currently dragging you down, and then add to it as you read through the areas of life listed below. Get rid of all the physical, mental and emotional clutter you have accumulated over the years and you will gain the time, space and inclination to enjoy life more.
Physical clutter
Physical clutter is everywhere: on our shelves, in our pockets, purses, cupboards and floors, even on our computer. Do you use it? Does it give you pleasure? If not, then get rid of it. The acquisition cost is in the past. Those things you hang on to use up your energy every time you pass them as you try not to notice them.
Identify the stuff you do not want. Now you have four choices: sell, give away, donate to charity, or dump. Keep the rest, repairing anything that needs fixing and organizing proper storage so that everything has a place. Tackle this in stages, perhaps an hour or one large item a week. It may be hard to start with but you'll be amazed how good it feels.
Mental clutter
Mental clutter is an even bigger energy drain. It has three primary manifestations: information overload, aspirations, and busyness. All three are highly addictive and are valued by our society.
Information overload is exhausting, as are unmet aspirations. Think of the silent reproach of the piles of books you'll get round to reading "someday," the uncooked recipes, the unwatched DVDs. Increase mental energy by giving up on at least one of your long-held aspirations, one of the vague ones that has been hanging over you for years. Also try reducing the media input in your life.
Delegate when you can and create systems to save time. Set up automated reminders of birthdays and other important events on your PC. Consider automatic bill payments. Alternatively, mark crucial dates on a wall planner. Establish a filing system for paperwork and organize appropriate folders for computer documents. Online shopping could save you time.
Emotional clutter
Emotional clutter is the most insidious of all. Why do we waste our precious time on social obligations that eat our leisure time without giving pleasure? Because we think we should? Because we like to feel needed? Or because we're scared of being neglected or forgotten if we don't go?
Aim to create new patterns and expectations for all the relationships you value. Eliminate "shoulds" by controlling the frequency, timing and duration of visits, phone calls and emails. If you no longer have the time or inclination, abandon long-established rituals, such as weekly nights out or monthly visits. Break away from the need to be needed; it seriously impedes your ability to streamline your life.
Free of mental, physical and emotional clutter, you will no longer waste time trying to manage situations that shouldn't arise in the first place. Feeling lighter and happier, you'll have more time for loved ones. You will have an abundance of energy with which to carry ideas and projects through to completion.

Start your trip with a Mexico City airport pick-up on Day 1. Visit the Teotihuacan Aztec pyramids and eat dinner with a local family on Day 2. On Day 3 discover the vibrant markets of Mexico City. See the famous Frida Kahlo Museum on Day 4 and travel to Xochimilco to ride on tradtional Mexican-style gondolas. End your trip on Day 5 with an airport drop-off.
Day by Day Itinerary:
Day 1: Mexico City Airport Pick-Up
You will be picked up upon arrival at the Mexico City airport and transferred to your accommodation for check-in. Enjoy the rest of the afternoon at your leisure to relax, explore, and get settled in. Overnight in Mexico City.
Day 2: Teotihuacan Tour & Family Dinner Experience (D)
Head out of Mexico City by public transit, experiencing how locals move about this crowded city. Hop off at the archaeological area of the Teotihuacan pyramids, where you'll learn about the people who once lived here and all the mysteries that still surround this site. As you tour the grounds, you'll see the Moon Pyramid, the Calzada de los Muertos (Dead Pass), and the Sun Pyramid, which is the tallest and most spectacular in the area — it's 63 metres to the top (and yes, we're going up).
After exploring the pyramids, we'll continue the afternoon walking through the streets of a nearby town. Our first stop will take us into a family-run business where you will learn about 'obsidian' — the material that the Teotihuacan people use as a main element to make their tools, idols, and decorations. As well, you'll get to sip an ancient sacred drink called 'pulque,' which is extracted from the heart of the maguey (another kind of cactus) — considered by some to be the great-grandfather of tequila. Next pay a visit to the cactus product factory, where you'll find jams, candies, spicy lollies, alcoholic creams, and more products made by the local people from the endemic vegetation such as nopal, xoconostle, and tuna (a cactus fruit, not tuna fish!). Not only will you be able to see all the cactus varieties at this family-run factory, but you'll also get to try some samples and, if you like them, you can pick up some of these exotic products as a souvenir.
To finish our journey, we'll visit a local family for dinner. Their business is catering, so you'll be in good hands to try some traditional dishes. Their menu is always changing based on whatever they've cooked for the day — but there's always delicious options for every palate. You'll be welcomed into their home and experience traditional dinner customs. Plus, you'll be able practice all those Spanish words you've learned along your trip as you enjoy some real local flavours of typical Mexican kitchens. After dinner, we'll head back to Mexico City, happy, full, and relaxed from our wonderful day exploring life outside the hustle and bustle of the big city.
Overnight in Mexico City
Day 3: Mexico City Market Experience
Mexico City's markets are some of the most vibrant places in the city. Your first stop is a relatively unknown market that even some Mexicans don't know about. Your guide will provide you with some interesting information about the market's unique history and provide context within modern Mexican society. If you're into the Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera story, this will definitely be a highlight!
After this, you will discover the witchcraft market, one of the most bizarre places in the city. Here you'll find everything from your favourite superhero costume and festive piñata, to magic potions, voodoo doll, and the ever-coveted natural cure for a hangover. Next, it is time to be amazed by the 3-in-1 market of prepared food, fresh fruits and vegetables, and an unmatched selection of flowers. This is the biggest flower market in the city, where local vendors will match the colour of your eyes to their most exotic flowers. The aisles of this market are lined with stands selling fruit, herbs, piñatas, meat, fish, corn, mole, and everything in between. Overnight in Mexico City.
Day 4: Xochimilco and Frida Kahlo Day Trip
Discover the ancient canals of Xochimilco where the Aztecs once planted and cultivated their crops. Ride through these scenic waterways on a traditional Mexican "trajinera" gondola-style boat. Head over to the bohemian and intellectual neighborhood of Coyoacan to visit Casa Azul, Frida Kahlo's former house, now a museum housing her most valuable art and memorabilia. Pass through the Mexican National University at Ciudad Universitaria before heading back to the Historic City Center. Overnight in Mexico City.
Day 5: Mexico City Airport Drop-Off
Today your Mexico City adventure will end with an airport drop-off. We wish you happiness and health for your journey onward.

Gov. John Bel Edwards announced his appointment of Mary Werner to the Louisiana State University (LSU) System Board of Supervisors. Werner is filling the seat vacated by former Public Service Commissioner Scott Angelle. She will serve the remainder of his term representing the 3rd Congressional District.
"Mary Werner brings years of experience across multiple sectors to her new role on the LSU Board of Supervisors," said Gov. Edwards. "Her insight and heart for public service will make her an excellent member of the board and an asset to the LSU community of faculty, administrators alumni and fans."
Werner, a native of Leesville, Louisiana, is the director and vice president of The North American Land Company, LLC and The Sweet Lake Land & Oil Company, LLC, which are family-owned and operated businesses since the 1800s. Werner has extensive experience in business management and economic development, as well as being highly involved in the community.
Werner has served on the Committee of 100, on the boards of many arts and cultural organizations, and numerous charities and nonprofits, such as: the American Heart Association, Calcasieu area board of the American Cancer Society, the Louisiana Preservation Alliance, the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities, and the Louisiana Center for Women in Government.
In addition to her business experience and work in nonprofit advocacy, Werner has a passion for education. She has volunteered many years of service in her children's schools. She served as a trustee, board chair, and Capital and Annual Fund campaign chair for Bishop Noland Episcopal Day School in Lake Charles, Louisiana. She is a trustee of Ascension Episcopal School in Lafayette, Louisiana, where she has served as board vice chair and chair.
"I'm humbled and excited to accept this appointment by Gov. Edwards to do this important work for Louisiana State University," said Werner. "I plan to work closely with my fellow board members to benefit the university and all of those involved."

A group of mayoral and City Council candidates promised Friday morning to try to find out if the Sewerage & Water Board of New Orleans still has the $115 million reserve fund intended to pay damages from its major Uptown drainage-canal construction projects, as well as to try to push the entity toward mediation of their claims rather than continuing in a costly legal fight against them.
In 2015, a group of property owners along Jefferson, Napoleon and Louisiana avenues filed a lawsuit against the Sewerage & Water Board, claiming that construction of the major new Southeast Louisiana drainage-canal project was damaging their homes through vibration and other ways. The Sewerage & Water Board attempted to blame the damage on the contractors, but a federal judge ruled that the liability was solely on the Sewerage & Water board, and a trial date for the first five homeowners in the case is now set for Jan. 8, 2018.
On Friday morning, attorney Michael Whitaker invited candidates for mayor and the City Council to the home of the Leche family on Jefferson Avenue to see the damage and learn about the case firsthand. Large cracks are visible in the outside walls near the ceilings; a hole in the kitchen looms above the staircase where the drywall caved in; and Whitaker said the structural damage will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to repair.
"The tragedy is, the Sewerage & Water Board knew about this for years. They knew it was going to happen, but they didn't do anything to protect these homes or protect this property," Whitaker told the candidates. "They are good citizens. They pay their taxes and go to work everyday, but they are being treated like fraudsters and opportunists by the Sewerage & Water Board."
The Sewerage & Water Board has said that it has a $115 million reserve fund intended to pay the damages caused by the construction, and Whitaker said one role the Council can play is to ensure that the fund remains intact, rather than being spent on other emergencies.
"We need oversight to make sure it's still there, because nobody is behind the wheel of the Sewerage & Water Board anymore," Whitaker said.
Mayoral candidate Troy Henry agreed that the money could be at risk, and pledged to look into it if he is elected.
"They're printing money for other activities," Henry said. "It's the same reserve pool, I bet, that they're pulling everything else from."
Further, Whitaker said that council members and particularly the mayor as president of the Sewerage & Water Board could pressure the entities attorneys to pursue mediation rather than litigation. Up to this point, he said, Mayor Mitch Landrieu has "blown off" the residents, even though he lives in the neighborhood.
Charles Napoli, another Jefferson Avenue resident, said his 86-year-old father lived next door to him until the construction made it too difficult to get to and from his house, so he moved to an apartment on St. Charles Avenue until he passed away last year. The residents have gotten no support from the city, he said.
"We don't have anybody on the government side fighting for us," Napoli told the candidates.
District B candidate Catherine Love promised to address the current City Council with the issue this month.
"This is the problem with the politicians we choose," Love said. "We choose them for the wrong reasons."
The other District B candidate to visit the house, Jay H. Banks, said he was frustrated to see the city "circling the wagons" and fighting the claims rather than mediating them.
"I don't need to be a seismologist to see that this house is cracked," Banks said. "If they're spending the money on attorneys, they're spending it anyway, and should have spent it to fix some houses."
District A candidate Joe Giarrusso III said that dragging the claims out has resulting in the city losing both money in attorney's fees and the goodwill in the neighborhoods. His goal, he said, would be to make the property owners whole again as rapidly as possible.
"I'm completely puzzled by the fact that this hasn't moved along much more quickly," Giarrusso said. "Why an entity would choose to sit on the sidelines and not participate in mediation and try to expedite these claims is beyond me."
Aylin Acikalin Maklansky, also running in District A, said that the case is another reason that restoring City Council oversight to the Sewerage & Water Board is one of her top priorities. In the meantime, she said, her own experience on the side of residents suing major entities makes her prefer mediation over lawsuits in cases like these.
"If there is liability, we need to pay the people's claims, not the attorney's claims," Maklansky said.
Whitaker said that the homeowners had also had a productive meeting on Thursday night with District B City Councilwoman LaToya Cantrell, who is now running for mayor, and she invited Whitaker to come back for more information next week. Cantrell told them that she would try to exercise oversight on the reserve fund while on the Council, Whitaker said,
"I would imagine, as president of the Sewerage and Water Board, she would have the discretion to focus their agenda on fixing the problem," Whitaker said.
David Winkler-Schmit, a spokesman for Cantrell, confirmed that she had met with Whitaker and was planning to investigate the status of the reserve fund. Mediation would be the best end result for the case, Winkler-Schmit said, and Cantrell is committed to helping the residents as the case progresses.
The Jan. 8 trial date is before Judge Nakisha Ervin-Knott, Whitaker said. He hopes that she will send the case into mediation, but if not, he is already seeking dates for the next set of homeowners to go to trial.

Susan Meissner Interview
"I probably spend as much time researching and prewriting as I do writing." -- Susan Meissner
Susan Meissner cannot remember a time when she wasn't driven to put her thoughts down on paper. Her novels include The Shape of Mercy, a Christian Book Award finalist, and Blue Heart Blessed. Susan and her husband, a pastor and a chaplain in the Air Force Reserves, make their home in Southern California. They are the parents of four grown children.
I know you've been writing stories ever since you were a kid. What books would you say had the biggest impact on you during your growing up years?
The Little House on the Prairie books, Nancy Drew mysteries, the Ramona books by Beverly Cleary and Frances Hodges Burnett's A Little Princess and The Secret Garden were among my favorite and definitely books that I read more than once in my childhood. In my young teens I was a huge C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien fan. In high school I was moved by John Steinbeck at one end of the spectrum and Lucy Maud Montgomery at the other!
What was the number one thing your dad, an English major, taught you about
books and writing?
My dad was a subtle teacher on the art of writing. He didn't teach me about books and writing at all, actually. He taught me about life, and that has been of more value to me as a writer than advice on writing. Writing has been an art form I've been able to hone in relative isolation, but life – that stuff that writers draw from to write anything of value – I've learned only from doing life with other people – family being the key influence.
Could you share with us how you became the editor of your local newspaper?
Was that something you saw coming?
When my family and I moved to Minnesota after my husband left active duty and we were back in the United States after five years living overseas, the kids were older, most in school already and just one still toddling around, I was reacquainting myself with my love for writing – something I had let go comatose when the kids were infants. I saw an ad for a part-time reporter for our rural county newspaper and thought to myself, "I think I can do that." I didn't have a journalism degree but neither did anyone else in that quiet little county who was willing to work part-time. Had I been in the Twin Cities instead of rural Nowhere, I doubt I would've gotten the job. All I had to show for my writing examples were my elaborate letters home from when we lived overseas. But it was enough to get me the job. I began by writing obits and society news and graduated to court proceedings, special features and investigative reports and a fulltime job. Four years later, after learning all about community journalism by living it, the county paper bought my little town's weekly paper – an 18-page everything paper – and named me editor.
Quite a ride.
Do you feel your newspaper years helped you as a novelist? How?
Writing for a newspaper was an excellent way to learn how to KISS and RUE! Keep it Simple, Stupid and Resist The Urge to Explain. In storytelling, over-the-top prose is only okay if you want to write melodrama. I wanted to someday write literary fiction. Simple, subtle and powerful is always better than overdone and verbose when you want a literary style. And expositional over-explaining is sometimes the hallmark of news stories, but it wasn't for mine. I strove to make my news stories narrative nonfiction that struck people at an emotional place. I knew people would rather read something that hit them at a sensorial level than a bulleted Who-What-Why-Where-How story that read like an invitation to a boring lecture. Writing narrative nonfiction was a great way to learn to write fiction that feels real to the reader.
During your time at the newspaper, there came a moment when you felt a
burning desire to write a novel. How did you know it was time to pursue
that dream?
God kicked me in the pants; that's how I knew it was time to pursue it. My paternal grandfather died in 2002 – a good man whom I loved very much – and as I stood at his memorial surrounded by the beautiful and expansive stonework he'd laid in his backyard over a period of forty years, I realized I was half his age and really hadn't laid a stone anywhere, figuratively speaking. My life was half over and I hadn't written a novel, though I had wanted to since I was twelve. I came home from my Papa's funeral and quit my job at the paper to write Why the Sky is Blue, not knowing if any publisher would even want it, but willing to live with that risk. Two years later it was published by Harvest House.
Your favorite
novels to write are contemporaries with historical elements woven through.
Do you think your time traveling as an Air Force wife, especially
in Europe, contributed to your love of history? Why or why not?
I think perhaps living in Europe awakened my love for history, but my fondness for history feels like part of my wiring, like it's always been there and my time spent overseas just woke it up. When I think back to the subjects I did well in and that came easy to me in high school and college, it was always English and history, never math or science. I appreciate the artistry of math and the complexity of science, but neither subject comes easy to me. History has the word "story" in it. That's what it is. It's the story of everyone and everything. Story! How could I not love it?
White Picket Fences is no exception with this theme---a very important
element of the novel is its historical ties to World War II. Could you
share with us where the idea for this particular story came from?
The story came from two different places. One, I had spent time as a court-appointed advocate for children for the state of Minnesota (my part-time job while I waited to see if Why the Sky is Blue would interest a publisher) and I had seen firsthand that the seemingly imperfect home can still be a place where a child feels loved and safe. Likewise, the outwardly perfect white-picket-fence home can be a place of pretense, lies and insecurity behind those pristine pickets. Two, I had recently read the true story of Irina Sendler, a brave Catholic woman who risked her life to rescue nearly two thousand Jewish children out of the Warsaw Ghetto during the years of the Nazi occupation, and I knew that I could dovetail the two concepts. We tend to see what we want to see. To our peril.
How much research
do you need to perform before you know it's time
to start writing? And how much went into White Picket Fences?
I always spend three or four months in pre-write mode, building layers of characterization, building the set in my mind, so to speak, and I do all my research up front so that I feel confident in the facts and can concentrate on the human drama that the facts create. I read and re-read accounts of the years of the Warsaw Ghetto and the Treblinka death camp. I read books and articles about house fires, repressed childhood memories, rocky marriages, family law (as it related to Tally's legal situation), woodworking, and uncommunicative marriage partners. I probably spend as much time researching and prewriting as I do writing.
Of all your
characters, who's
your favorite, and why?
In White Picket Fences, I enjoyed every scene I wrote with Josef and Eliasz because those two offered the slight comic relief I needed to refuel my brain for the next intense scene. Those two men also represented hope and resiliency, something we all need, especially when we're in the furnace. Hope and resiliency keep us from letting the flames just consume us.
What would
you love to write someday but haven't yet?
I'd like to write a book for the mainstream market that exudes a Christian world view but is written well enough to be taken seriously by mainstream critics. I am not there yet. But that's where I want to be. That's where I'd like to lay a stone!
What authors or books have had the most influence on you as a writer?
This list changes every year because I have found that I enjoy a wide variety of titles, but not necessarily all of one particular author's work, like I really liked Sue Monk Kidd's The Secret Life of Bees but not The Mermaid Chair. Among my favorite books in the last few years are Peace Like a River, The Kite Runner, Life of Pi, Map of the World, The Thirteenth Tale, The Art of Racing in the Rain, Bel Canto and recently The Help and The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.
What do you
know now that you wish you'd known when you first started
If you write, you're a writer. Getting published doesn't make you a writer, it makes you published. You became a serious writer the moment you got serious about writing.
What was the lowest point in your writing career, and how did you get
out of it?
If we're being completely honest, I've struggled with envy. I am learning not to let it spoil the joy of writing. In the end a writer needs to write for the joy of writing. There are too many aspects of the publishing side of writing that you simply cannot control. I can only control how much effort I expend at the craft, how much I am willing to rewrite and rewrite and rewrite to get it right. That's what I can control. Envying someone else's book sales is like envying their height when they're standing barefoot. It's pointless. It doesn't change how tall I am. And I am learning to be happy for those whose books sell way better than mine. Being happy is so much nicer than being envious. I like it.
What are two things people might be surprised to know about you?
I hate escalators
I love manatees
When you're
not writing, what do you enjoy doing?
What did you eat for breakfast this morning?
Three things always found in your refrigerator:
Kalamata olives
Orange marmalade
Diet Coke with Lime
next in line at Starbucks. What are you ordering?
A skinny cinnamon dulce latte
What's left unchecked in your "goals for life" list?
Visit Giza and the Valley of the Kings
Visit Manhattan in April
Be able to live off 50% and give 50% away
When was the last time you cried?
Last month!
Three words that best describe you:
1. Around-the-house-shoe-leaver
2. Diet-Coke-with-lime-devotee
3. Busy

A Road to Nowhere — This week, our heroines continue their getaway into the wilds of … well, Los Angeles County. Ashley is at the helm of her sports car while Spencer is napping.
The song "You Can Sleep While I Drive" is not playing in the background.
Spence awakens from a bad dream, and Ash ventures a guess at the contents. "What, that we went all Thelma and Louise on your family because they found out their daughter's gay?"
Which is to say that they would knock off a bunch of gas stations, pick up a guy, and eventually drive off a cliff as mostly platonic BFFs.
God, I hope not.
Spencer's with me on this. "Good thing that'll never happen. We're not crazy, right? I can't let my mom keep us apart. It's not right." Ashley agrees that Paula is out of line, but harshes Spencer's (and my) mellow when she adds, "But we do have to go back and face her sooner or later."
Spencer votes for later. When Ash asks her where she wants to go, Spencer whips out the map and studies it for about as long as she spends in the classroom during any given SON episode. Then she then tosses it out of the car.
Spencer throws her arms up in the air and yelps like a coyote.
Carlin Command Post — Big surprise here: Paula is melting down. After trying unsuccessfully to call Spencer, she fumes, "So she doesn't want to answer her phone? Fine! I'm calling the police and having them put out an AMBER Alert!"
Arthur tries to talk her off the ledge: "We know that they haven't been kidnapped. Ashley's mom says she's done this before, and she always comes home."
Paula snorts, "Well, you'll forgive me if I'm not following that woman's lead."
For a moment, Arthur gets confused and starts talking about the situation as if he's dealing with someone on his wavelength. "Spencer's been hurt. She's just reacting to a traumatic —"
Paula interrupts: "Wait. Are you blaming me?" Her fierce tone and narrowed eyes make me want to hide under my desk. Good luck, Arthur.
Surprisingly, she does not deck him. She looks over at her remaining kids, Dumb and Dorkier, who are probably shivering in their Skechers. There are no comments from the peanut gallery.
Having survived this mission, he sends Mother Superior off to work and tells her he's got it under control. And he even gives her a nice little kiss.
Freeway of Love — The adventure continues, and they still haven't settled on a destination. Without that map they probably wouldn't know how to get there, anyway.
Spencer throws her arms up in the air and shimmies, "How about San Francisco? Wooohooooo!"
If she gets this excited about taking the 5 freeway up to SF, imagine the sort of response a trip to Tahiti might elicit! Ashley really needs to think this destination thing through.
For Spencer, this sort of uninhibited behavior really is out of character. Is this what happens when she's free from Paula's tractor beam?
Nah. It's just a sugar rush. Spencer admits that she's chowed down four doughnuts, which in Los Angeles is a misdemeanor. So it's a good thing they got out of town.
Sugar is apparently a mild aphrodisiac as well, because Spencer finally remembers that she's on a romantic getaway with her hot girlfriend. She moons, "I'm sorry. I'm just so excited that we're away from everyone. Just you, me and the doughnuts."
Ashley says suggestively, "I think I can do better than doughnuts."
Does this mean they're going to find a restaurant, or was that some sort of innuendo? And why haven't these two pulled over and made out already?

Title IX is a landmark federal civil rights law that requires gender equality in all aspects of publicly-funded education.
"No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance."
— Title IX, Education Amendment of 1972
We've come a long way since 1972, and it's a good thing. Research suggests that girls who participate in sports are more likely to experience academic success, have higher levels of self-esteem, and are less likely to use drugs.
Thankfully, for decades and even centuries, women and girls have been taking risks and breaking barriers to change the face of sports worldwide. See their stories at theunsungheroines.com

- Ares Tavolazzi / electric & acoustic bass, acoustic guitar, mandola, trombone, pocket trumpet,
- Demetrio Stratos / vocal, organ, electric & acoustic piano, ocarina
After it had debuted, the message by Area might have had the will of adamant always consistently. A young person at that time and the fan supported the music character of Area and the message. It is said that most fans were able to sing the song of Area though it is the irregular melody and diversity of the rhythm.
A political shade of meaning and the message of the anti-establishment kept enchanting the fan and the listener to some degree partially of the taste of Area. However, a music character of Area and an overwhelming technology might also wait for the aspect and it be also true in the music character to have kept always maintaining the excellent condition.
This album is the last work as the band to which Demetrio Stratos was on the register as the result. And, some respects will be enumerated when talking by thinking about this album.
Existence of CRAMPS label that supports the activity after Area debuts. CRAMPS that was offering a lot of wonderful bands besides Area almost lost the function of course in 1978. It is an album announced in this album after it transfers the register to ASCOLTO. If the situation of an activity of Area at that time was considered, this album might have had the role that was able to be caught for them as one turning point.
And, guitar player's Gianpaolo Tofani might have been hoped for because it had the form of the performance with strong more acoustic part because the band had already seceded. As for it, the part where the music character in addition to the theme that they had consistently had had been gradually refined might have been included.
Of course, the existence of Area might have been absolute as one of the bands that pulled the 80 year for the listener and the fan. However, June 18, 1979 became an impact day for not only the fan of Area but also the market of music. It is said that the ambition of Demetrio Stratos until dying always moved in an advanced part. After announcing this album, Area actually dares the tour. It is said that Demetrio Stratos will schedule it to secede the band after the tour and to concentrate on the activity of Solo. However, the plan will be lost as a result by the death of Demetrio Stratos. And, Area also rapidly shrank the activity.
An avant-garde who can listen in an initial work in addition to their political messages and an avant-garde part develop further and reach this album at last. The fact that this album carried everything before one the market of the music of Italy remains as an evaluation, too. This album had also to consider the fact that acquired the prize of the critic of second following "Crac" announced in 1975 because it unified it and to have received one the top for Area. All the height of the overwhelming power of expression and technology is surely expressed by this album.
"Il Bandito Del Deserto" is a tune that involves the overwhelming might. There might be the album's arranging the element of the music of Bulgaria and the sphere of Arab first for the composition of their albums comparing it a lot. This tune will take pride in overwhelming composition power in the flow. The band dashes attended with a complete melody by 11/8 rhythms in union. Sound of decoration with wind instrument. And, the line of Bass that completely pulls the tune. The song in close relation to the composition of the refined tune is powerful. And, the processing of the melody by the part of Coda might be splendid.
The atmosphere of the music of Arabia where it gets on 11/8 rhythms twines round "Interno Con Figure E Luci" well. The scat of Demetrio Stratos in close relation to the melody of the marimba that Giulio Capiozzo performs produces racial atmosphere. The tune progresses as the element of Jazz Rock and the part of Solo of the keyboard twining at the same time as with diversity as a form of the performance. A good flow of Bass and a complex composition are splendidly expressed.
As for "Return From Workuta", a fantastic expression of the voice by Demetrio Stratos and the obbligati of the keyboard are impressive. It is said that Demetrio Stratos acquired "Throat-Singing" as one of the methods of expressing the song. The expression of a fantastic line by Bass and the continued voice might be splendid.
The theme round which a complex rhythm twines from SE of the siren of Intro with the melody appears in "Guardati Dal Mese Vicino All'Aprile". The performance of the band that emphasizes an acoustic part continues a good flow. Part of guitar and scat. The sense of relief and the dash feeling are kept. The flow that rushes into the part of Free Jazz from the part of the repeated theme might be calculated well as a composition, too. The route of the avant-garde whom they consistently had is exactly refined and expressed.
As for "Hommage A Violette Nozieres", pastoral original atmosphere of the music of Italy is expressed well. However, the content of an irregular composition of the rhythm and a little extreme lyrics might be one of the expressions of them. The performance of a bright melody and the band that twines with 7/4 rhythms in which it listens in the part of Intro after repeating 8/4 rhythms expands the width of the composition of this album. The idea of the tune composed 7/4 rhythms and 8/in quadruple time is also splendid each other.
"Ici On Dance" has the start of the multiple structure of the voice with the atmosphere of Bulgaria Voice. It is ..original composition that is.. finished though it has the becoming it rhythm in basically subjects four rhythms by twining of 10/8. Part where original melody that is twines from line of Bass. Flow of good Groove performed as much as possible. A dash feeling and a mysterious melody are the music for them.
"Acrostico In Memoria Di Laio" is a flow of ensemble of the band that produces a part of the complex melody repeated from the part of Intro of 16/15 rhythms with an overwhelming keyboard and complete Groove. Part of dash feeling in close relation to bright melody of acoustic piano. And, the part of complete Solo of the keyboard in close relation to the obbligati of the wind instrument might create one space. The progress of Chord will excite the listener. A peculiar talking about Demetrio Stratos that twines while continuing Groove completely demonstrates power of expression.
As for "FFF", a flow, a piano, and Bass expression of feelings with a good organ combine from Solo of the drum that moves freely. The melody will call impression as much as possible. Playing piano Trio it in close relation to the rhythm that combines 4/4 rhythms with 3/4 rhythms has the element of complete Jazz Rock. The technology and the idea of the performance are overwhelming though the song doesn't appear.
"Vodka Cola" is a tension of 11 rhythms from the theme that repeats the rhythm of 7 and 10 by the song. And, it is partial of the performance that produces the anacatesthesia. The performance of the band accelerates gradually. The flow that the part of original composition and POP is taken to the melody with the tension might be splendid.
Construction of consistent theme that part technical performance and men had of doing. This album where everything is almost expressed in their works might be the top that Area surely reached at last.

It seems that Napoli central defender Alessandro Gamberini has agreed to sign for Chievo rather than Leeds United.
Serie A minnows Chievo are on the brink of announcing the signature of Napoli defender Alessandro Gamberini, according to the latest reports in Italy.
The experienced Italian international had been linked with a move to Leeds United, who have added a number of players from Italy so far this summer.
But Verona club Chievo always had the advantage in the battle to sign the ex-Fiorentina man because he was said to be reluctant to leave his homeland.
- 'Traumatic year': Manager is very worried about reported West Ham target
- Club reportedly set sights on £17m international two months after West Ham links
According to Il Corriere di Verona, Chievo have overcome competition from Leeds and Gamberini is ready to put pen to paper on a three-year contract.
Gamberini had become surplus to requirements in Rafa Benitez's Napoli squad and his contract expires in June 2015, making a sale this summer likely.
Leeds will be disappointed to miss out on Gamberini, who is a month short of his 33rd birthday, because he has an impressive track record in Serie A.
The Bologna native has eight caps for Italy and even travelled to Euro 2008 after an injury to Fabio Cannavaro, although he didn't get on the pitch in Austria and Switzerland.
The deal is likely to be confirmed later today and Gamberini will be a big addition for Chievo who as ever will be attempting to defy the naysayers and maintain their Serie A status.

Autumn 2013 Ming Hong from China's Nanhu Mountains.
The dry leaves smell like sugared raisin bread and pastries. They are black brown twisted threads and a few gold ones mixed in.
I brewed this Western style. The liquor is a deep auburn red and smells very sweet, like the top of a créme brûlée and also like fresh clean spring water.
The wet leaves are still twisted, autumn brown color and smell briny and like rye bread.
The flavor is delicious . Very naturally sweet with notes of sweet raisin bread, rye bread, honey butter.
Had some more today Gaiwan style!!!!! Lots of essences and flavors of Raisin Bran. Little bit of smoke.
Gong Fu style today. 195F Immediate rinse-20-35-40-40-50
Nice light orange Sunkist color liquor. Malty scent and flavor. So good. Cream, malt, tiny touch of smoke.
This is best brewed Gong Fu,,,I really have stopped brewing Western style for my Chinese teas. Darjeeling and Indian teas are my Western style brews.
Good stuff!
Flavors: Baked Bread, Caramel, Cream, Malt, Raisins, Smoke

Morning has dawned bright and warm. This is not good news for you, though. You had a broken night's sleep. Knowing that you have to wake up, you barely succeed at dragging yourself to the bathroom. With your eyes barely open, you see yourself in the mirror and find that you have dark circles beneath your eyes. Feeling frustrated, tired, and weak, you know that it is definitely not a good start for the day.
Does this story sound familiar to you? If it does, you might be suffering from insomnia. Insomnia is a condition of not being able to fall asleep, stay asleep, or return to sleep. Someone suffering from insomnia is not likely to have enough sleep. Poor quality and quantity of sleep is something far from a "good night". This eventually leads to the deterioration of one's quality of life and health. If you are suffering from insomnia, you will not have enough quality sleep. Before we talk more about insomnia and quality of sleep, let us find out more about sleep itself first.
What Is Sleep?
Sleep is the natural state of one's mind and body becoming relatively less active and less sensitive, with less interaction with the surrounding environment. Scientists and doctors often conclude whether one is sleeping or not by measuring one's brainwaves, or electrical impulses sent across brain cells and synapses. Even during sleep, brainwaves continue to change, repeating in cycles known called sleep cycles. Each sleep cycle is composed of two kinds of phases: the rapid eye movement (REM) sleep phase and the non-REM sleep phase. The brainwaves exhibited during sleep cycle are theta and delta for non-REM sleep and alpha and beta with some desynchronous waves for REM sleep, while it is usually the alpha and beta brainwaves that are exhibited when awake.
The REM sleep phase, also known as paradoxical sleep, is the part of the sleep cycle when your brain sends out fast, desynchronized brain waves. This phase is named REM because the eyes also show rapid movements compared to the non-REM sleep phase. During this process, you are likely to experience dreaming. In contrast, your brain sends out slow brain waves during the non-REM sleep phase. During this phase, you are likely to be in the deep-sleep state, where your body temperature and heart rate falls while your brain uses much less energy. Each sleep cycle takes about 90 minutes on average. Sleep cycles occur several times during sleep.
For most people, sleep is a very important part of one's daily routine. Of course people do sleep instinctively since sleep is essential for staying alive and plays important roles in all aspects of mental and physical health. The most important role of sleep is recovery. When you sleep, your body and brain recover from fatigue accumulated during daytime activity. During sleep, body functions such as strength and metabolism improve as they are restored. Also, immunity systems and tissue recovery require sleep to be maintained in order to be effective. Brain functions are restored during sleep, too. Sleep helps cognitive skills and emotional control to function properly, and it enhances concentration and learning abilities. Additionally, sleep is also known to play an important role in improving willpower and relieving stress.
The second role of sleep is information processing. When you sleep, your brain works in two kinds of ways to process information such as memories and emotions. One form of information processing is simply classifying and prioritizing information, especially memories. Your brain decides whether the information is important or not. Then, it saves the important pieces while it puts other information aside and in the back of your mind. The other way of processing information is by throwing away the negative emotions you had while being awake. Through this process, you will feel better when you wake up, after having a terrible day. This process only happens when you are in the REM sleep phase of the sleep cycle.
Now that we are clear about why sleep is important, we can consider what happens when we lack sleep. According to experts, a lack of sleep damages us both physiologically and psychologically. This is mainly because if we do not sleep, it is difficult for the brain and body to recover fully from the natural wear and tear of tissues, as well as from injuries. Physically, lack of sleep weakens our strength and interferes in the recovery of the body. Our immune systems can easily be weakened by it. As body recovery and immunity are interrupted, we are more likely to be exposed to diseases. Some research indicates that lack of sleep is related to various problems in the circulatory and respiratory systems. According to the trade daily Electronics Times, a research team from the Seoul National University Hospital recently found that patients suffering from insomnia were eight times more likely to die from their conditions, if terminal, than patients who did not have any sleep disorders. All in all, insufficient sleep makes us unhealthy, and even brings us closer to death.
Psychologically, a lack of sleep weakens concentration and willpower. This disturbs and downgrades learning and memorizing abilities. Creativity is also likely to be weakened. Moreover, cognitive skills - that is, our ability to acquire and retain information or skills - and emotional control will be affected by the lack of sleep, which could worsen our performance and relationships with others. Our ability to judge or discern favorable conditions and outcomes from unfavorable ones is also likely to be damaged. Furthermore, lack of sleep will make us feel more tired and eventually create even more stress.
Contemporary psychologists and neurologists are discovering the exact mechanisms that govern our brains when we sleep, but the theories they base their studies on go back at least 100 years, to the work of two European theorists: Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung.
Freud, an Austrian neurologist and physician, believed that sources and consequences of emotional conflicts operate on three levels of awareness:
The conscious mind includes every mental activity including the thoughts, feelings, and actions of which we are currently aware. For example, thinking about the taste of the food you are having for dinner occurs at this level.
The pre-conscious mind includes all mental activities which are not presently active but stored somewhere in our memory. For example, remembering what you ate for dinner last night occurs at this level.
The unconscious mind includes mental activities that people are unaware of. For example, remembering another food you ate before which has a similar taste to the food you are eating now occurs at this level. Freud asserted that this level comprises the largest part of our mental activities.
Extending Freud's theories, Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, claimed that dreams are related to the unconscious desires of the dreamers. According to his theory, dreams occur naturally from what he termed collective unconscious. He asserted that dreams have a compensatory function which allows mental activities that did not reach the conscious level to be revealed, often through a system of symbols and metaphors. However, Jung also added that not all dreams can be explained by this theory.
What Is Insomnia?
The term sleep disorder indicates all sorts of disorders that interrupt healthy sleeping patterns. Sleeping disorders can be temporary, but sometimes they can seriously interfere with normal physical, mental, social, and emotional functioning.
The best-known and, according to the National Sleep Foundation of the United States (SDF), the most common sleep disorder is insomnia. As stated above, insomnia occurs when you cannot fall or stay asleep. Taking too much time to fall asleep, waking up in the middle of your sleep, or waking up too early can all be symptoms of insomnia. In other words, having difficulty maintaining your sleep status is insomnia.
Insomnia can be classified into three types. The first one is transient or temporary insomnia, which lasts less than a week. The next one is acute insomnia, which continues for weeks, but not more than a month. Acute insomnia is sometimes called short-term insomnia. The last and the worst type of insomnia is chronic. If insomnia continues for more than a month, it is chronic, and it sometimes causes serious problems.
Insomnia can be caused by various factors. One well-known cause is stress. Stress increases tension inside you, and if this becomes serious it can interfere with your sleep. Daily life habits also lead to insomnia. There are several habits that can hinder your sleep. Doing certain activities can stimulate you before bedtime, most commonly using your smart phone late at night. Drinking alcohol and smoking can also lead to insomnia, since such activity changes metabolism. Breaks in a regular routine can have a negative impact on sleep patterns. If you sleep late during the weekdays and then wake up late during the weekends, this can cause you to have insomnia. Also, drinking too much caffeine, such as coffee and energy drinks can cause insomnia. In addition, some people suffer from insomnia due to other existing physical conditions or even genetically. It can be a symptom of a deeper condition.
Now that we have considered of the causes of insomnia, we can consider in more detail what it leads to. People suffering from insomnia feel weary, fatigued, and sleepy during the daytime, and can be easily irritated and anxious, or even depressed. Insomnia can sometimes cause hormonal problems, as well. Another problem caused by insomnia is that the sufferer can start disliking sleep, as attempting to get to sleep becomes something difficult and stressful, leading a sufferer to avoid going to bed. This becomes a cause of stress, making the insomnia worse. The sufferer might eventually become anxious about sleeping and the routine for the next day. The sufferer might forget how to fall asleep and eventually get trapped in a vicious circle.
The Current Situation
Nowadays, many people suffer from insufficient and poor-quality sleep. According to statistics from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA), the number of patients who visited the hospital due to insomnia has increased continuously in South Korea over the years. In 2012, 425,077 people visited the hospital because of insomnia, while in 2016 the number had increased to 542,939, or by 34.2 percent. According to the SDF, up to 40 million people, or more than 10 percent of the population, suffer from insomnia in the United States. These statistics also show that women and older adults are more likely to suffer from insomnia.
The Cause of the Situation
Insomnia may be regarded as a social problem, not merely due to an individual's habits or health problems. More generally, what are the causes of this phenomenon? Some people blame modern society. However, this is not exactly the right approach according to recent studies.
Sociologists and anthropologists have recently found evidence that our ancient ancestors had about the same amount of sleeping time as modern humanity. According to a research team from the University of California at Los Angeles, people from hunter-gatherer societies who live in a traditional way sleep under 6.5 hours on average, which is similar to people who live in industrialized societies. Among the three societies studied ? the San of Namibia, the Hazda of Tanzania, and the Tsimane of Bolivia?none suffer from prevalent insomnia or other sleep disorders, which is a sharp contrast to the industrialized world. The research concluded that the amount of time sleeping is not what really matters.
In light of these findings, what are the factors that make such a difference? Jerome Siegel, who was a member of the research team and a former president of the Sleep Research Society, insists that it is not the length, but the quality of sleep that makes the difference. If so, what makes members of modern industrialized society have such poor sleep? The research team suggested a theory that ancient hunter-gatherer societies seem to adjust their daily routines to follow changes in temperature. It is possible that as members of industrialized societies tend to remain indoors and isolated from changes in weather and climate, they are interrupting natural daily routine and sleep patterns. A CNN article covering this research mentioned conventional advice from sleep doctors: exercise, healthy weight, reductions in caffeine and alcohol intake, and waking up at a consistent time. This advice might be what people in industrialized society lack: sufficient amounts of physical activity, healthy diet, and regular daily routine.
The Solution
To solve sleep disorders like insomnia and have quality sleep, you need to eliminate the causes. If, for example, you have problematic habits, try to get used to good habits that help you to get good sleep. You can try to keep regular routines every day or quit drinking too much caffeine.
Kim Sang-soo, a counselor at the University of Seoul (UOS) Student Counseling Center, suggested that people who suffer from insomnia should find a solution by finding a good way to sleep so that they will no longer have to fear or be stressed about going to sleep. "If you spend your time in a satisfactory way that does not bother your sleep, the symptoms will improve. For example, reading a book could be a good way for some people," Kim said. He added that finding a way to relax, such as meditation, helps solve sleep problems by reducing stress.
Self Diagnosis of Insomnia
Since insomnia can happen to anyone, knowing the solutions is essential to quality of life. Unfortunately, however, many people are not informed about the causes and solutions of insomnia or other sleep disorders. Here is a simple self diagnosis for insomnia from the Asan Medical Center. To complete it, check the items that you think are relevant to you. Then, count the number of items you checked.
1. It takes more than 30 minutes to fall asleep.
2. It takes effort to get to sleep.
3. You drink alcohol or take a sleeping pill to fall asleep.
4. You sometimes sleep as much as you want on days off.
5. You can fall asleep well if the environment for sleeping changes (For example, when you are on a journey).
6. You wake up more than twice while sleeping and have difficulty falling asleep again.
7. You often check the clock to see how long you have been asleep, or how much longer you have to sleep.
8. You are always drowsy during the day, especially after lunch.
9. You usually have dreams, and then you can remember their details.
10. You cannot fall asleep again if you wake up too early.
If you check more than three of these items, you may suffer from insomnia. On average, approximately 30 percent of people are suffering from insomnia. Articles 1~4 are usually symptoms of initial insomnia and 5~8 are symptoms of a disorder in sleep maintenance. Articles 9 and 10 are symptoms you can go through if you are suffering from depression.
Sleep is an essential and important part of our lives. Insufficient sleep causes several problems that could become serious. What matters in sleep is not the length, but the quality. To have quality sleep, we need to maintain healthy sleeping patterns. We must learn how to sleep.

Making a Medical Negligence Claim
The healthcare we receive in the UK is some of the best in the world and we have a unique system with the NHS offering free treatment to all at the point of need. Thankfully medical mistakes are few and far between, but when they do happen it is important to know what you can do about making a medical negligence claim if you choose to.
For free legal advice call our Medical Negligence Solicitors on 0330 606 9673 or contact us online and we will help you.
Make a Complaint or Make a Claim?
Your first decision is what action you want to take. You may want to have an informal discussion with the doctor or hospital where the incident happened. This may be enough for you to resolve the issues you have about your treatment but equally you may not feel comfortable doing that.
You should in any case make a formal complaint about the incident. If the issue was with a GP, you should contact the practice manager at your GP surgery or if it happened in a hospital, you should follow the complaints procedure of that hospital. For help you can contact NHS Patient Advice and Liaison Service, also known as PALS. There is usually someone on site in most hospitals.
Making a complaint can help you to come to terms with what's happened and help you to know that your concerns will be taken on board and action can be taken to put right what went wrong.
But if you've been injured by medical negligence, an apology and a change in practice may not be enough for you. You may have a claim for medical negligence compensation and this will be the decision that you need to make.
Using a Specialist Solicitor
If you were injured as a result of clinical or medical negligence you should get legal advice from a specialist Medical Negligence Solicitor.
Using a specialist Medical Negligence Solicitor will help you when you make a claim. Your Solicitor can make sure you have all the support you need to get the compensation you deserve. Your medical negligence claim will probably be defended by the NHS Trust or GP so having a legal expert on your side is vital.
You should be aware that there are time limits for making a medical negligence claim. You have 3 years from the date of your injury or from the date you became aware that your illness or injury was caused or connected to medical negligence.
Getting legal advice from a Medical Negligence Solicitor as early as possible is the best approach. It will allow your Solicitor to get as much evidence about your injuries and illness as possible and they could get you some rehabilitation and additional medical treatment if you need it.
Types of Medical Negligence Claims
There are many different types of Clinical and Medical Negligence Claims, and they cover a very wide remit. They can include:
- A&E Negligence such as missed fractures, missed diagnosis
- Surgical mistakes such as surgery in the wrong place or a mistake when performing the surgery
- GP mistakes such as missed or lost referrals
- Missed or late cancer diagnosis
- Child birth injuries
- Incorrect medication being given
- Pressure sores
- Hospital infections such as MRSA
- Nursing home injuries or abuse
- Cosmetic surgery mistakes
- Cosmetic dentistry mistakes.
A medical negligence claim can be brought against a private doctor, hospital or clinic, an NHS hospital, a GP or a cosmetic surgery practitioner. If you are not sure whether you have a claim or not, talk to a specialist Medical Negligence Solicitor.
To make a claim for medical negligence, you'll need to prove two things. The first is that you can show that the person treating you was negligent and that the treatment you had fell below what could sensibly be expected by a normal person. You'll then have to show that the negligent treatment you receive actually caused your injury.
Both of these points can be difficult to prove, but at Co-op Legal Services our Medical Negligence Solicitors use medical experts to help make your case and use all the evidence we can get from sources such as your medical notes.
If you do decide to go ahead and make a claim, based on the information you provide to us, we'll obtain a copy of your medical notes and ask an expert to review them.
The medical expert will give their opinion on whether they think your treatment was negligent. They'll give their expert opinion on what the consequences are of the treatment you received and whether it links to your ongoing symptoms and problems.
Finally we'll gather all the evidence to make your claim for you and then issue the claim in Court. Most medical negligence claims are settled before it gets to Court, but we often find that no negotiations or agreements happen before we start Court proceedings.
For free legal advice call our Medical Negligence Solicitors on 0330 606 9673 or contact us online and we will call you.

I woke up angry today cos of a conversation I had before bed. Women are so strong. So OBVIOUSLY strong. You sweat blood for a spot at a table that disrespects your sweat. Then you spend EVERY SINGLE DAY convincing people you belong there. And the damn table isn't even all that.
And when you say "Fuck it. My life, my rules." They ask why. It's because it never ends. Nothing is ever enough. And complaining is a waste of time. This is why most of the women that STAY winning have to win on their own terms. Ass-kissing is exhausting.

Z and I have a morning routine that when it works, works well. I get up at 5:30, dress, have a cup of coffee, pack our lunches, then sit for 5 minutes and maybe try to catch the weather. Around 6, Z calls for me and I go pick him up if he's not ready to be awake, or he trots to the living room. He eats a light breakfast on the couch, a homemade muffin or Cheerios usually while I finish my coffee. I coax him to get dressed, we brush teeth, bundle up, grab a favorite toy, and coffee (always coffee!) and we're off!
This is our vehicle of choice along with this for warmth. We have one car and I don't really drive so we walk. Rain or shine, snow, bitter cold or blistering heat, we walk. It's my favorite time of day. These are the things we just have to stop and visit. We live just outside of Boston so it's a busy street. Lots to see!

Gospel Expansion
Today's reading: Acts 10:24-48
Prior to Peter's encounter with Cornelius, the apostles' preaching about Jesus had only been directed toward the Jews. So Peter's communicating the Gospel message to Cornelius and his friends (all non-Jews) was a significant shift from the norm. And what an incredible change, because from this point forward, the preaching of the Gospel message is now being delivered far and wide to all people. As a non-Jew, I love this passage reading about the immediate impact it had on Cornelius and his friends. I am grateful for how the salvation message has transformed the lives of millions of people since Cornelius, and continues with each passing day.
What did God impress on your heart from Acts 10 and the account of Cornelius? What do Peter's words in verse 43, "that everyone who believes in [Jesus] receives forgiveness of sins through his name," show you about God and His love for you? Tami
