What do you want from your relationship with your dentist? Oftentimes, this question is answered when there is a dental problem or emergency requiring immediate attention. There is a different approach to your relationship with your dentist that relates to your own needs and the dental plan you have. This approach is designed to help you create the kind of experiences you want with your dentist.
You have a choice about this relationship and how it can support and assist you in your life. It begins with the simple question stated at the beginning of this article: What do you want from your relationship with your dentist? Are you just looking for a doctor who can take your dental plan? Or, do you want more?
The answer to this question can take many forms. For some people it may mean having a lot of information about their dental health and future. They seek facts to know they are making good, informed decisions. Others may want a friendly relationship in which openness and communication are valued.
They want information your dental plan, but more importantly, they want to know they are important to the dentist and the dental team. Some individuals want minimal information and discussion -- just the facts and the solutions to take care of any problem.
We all have different wants in our relationships with health professionals such as dentists. Here are five tips to assist you in deciding what you want in your relationship with your dentist:
Each person looks for different things in their relationships. It is your responsibility to determine what you want and look for that in the relationship with your dentist. The answers to the questions above will tell you something about this.
The next step is communicating what you want so that you are understood. Only you know when someone else understands you. Here are four tips to assist you in this communication process:
Communicating what you want is important to your dentist for it is the best way for him or her to maximize your dental plan for you.
By Brian DesRoches, PhD
Fortunately, in these times, a lot of patients have dental insurance. Insurance is, on the face of it, a good thing. It minimizes out-of-pocket expenses for treatment and encourages people to keep up with the dental care they need. But most dental insurance plans do not pay 100%. There simply is no perfect insurance plan.
Part of the problem is what's called "usual and customary fees." Insurers have come up with a fee structure intended to reflect the "average" cost of "average" dental care. Urban residents may be allowed different compensation than people who live in rural areas. Reimbursement for a crown may be a certain percentage of the actual cost (the dentist's charge to you), and another percentage for a cleaning. Patients are sometimes puzzled at the discrepancy between insurer reimbursement and actual dental fees.
Of course your dentist can't dictate the amount your dental insurance plan decides is "average." And they don't ask your dentist what cost he or she thinks is fair. The dilemma is this: your dentist can't, in good conscience, recommend less than quality dentistry, even though your insurer may impose an unreasonable ceiling on treatment. It's a rock and a hard place.
For this reason, you should take objections directly to the insurer or compare dental plans with your employer. If enough people make enough noise, the reimbursement picture might improve.
Ask your dentist to sit down with you and go over your dental plan and your dental financing options. He or she will try to make your dental insurance plan work to your advantage. Your dentist cares about your finances, and your health.

[PSA][Language] Nuclear vs Nuculer, or "What is a nucule?"
Curiosity's power source is "nuclear" (new-clee-er), not "nuculer" (new-cuew-ler).
There's no such word as nuculer.
[Edit] Actually there is, sort of! My friend Mali Hawthorne said this:
"What's cool is that "Nu-Cu-Ler" is actually a word! A "nucule" is the meat in the center of a pit-having fruit, such as a peach, apricot or almond. An almond-bar, for example, can in fact, be described as "nucular" because it has to do with almonds, which are nucules!"
[Edit the Second] Another friend wisely pointed out that they find that discussions such as these are prone to stray to the level of "Learn English or go home". An embarrassing and eye-opening moment for me as to where my privilege and prejudices lay.

"The light can heal" – Hippocrates
We know that plants use energy from sunlight to make food, but plants are not the only living organisms that can benefit from the light. Scientists across the world have done many investigations to prove and motivate the use of the light in medical fields.
What is LED Phototherapy?
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode and represents emission of lights when a current is passed through semiconductors.It is a non-invasive, non-thermal no down-time procedure, which unlike lasers and IPL can be used on all skin types. Various skin conditions and aesthetic face and body problems can be targeted with different wavelengths of LED, penetrating to a different layer of the skin. *
What is LED Therapy Used For?
LED therapy is used for many skin conditions using different wavelengths. At 8th Sense, we use MOST LEDS, the advanced computerized LED therapy. We use MOST LEDS for the following conditions:
- Dull and rough skin
- Stretch Marks in all skin types
- Acne
- Post laser treatment
- Cellulite
- Melasma
- Hair Loss
LED can also be used as part of photodynamic therapy, which is more invasive treatment due to pre-application of a photosensitive substance called ALA.
LED can be used for various other conditions such as stress, psoriasis, bone and muscle pain, depression, allergic rhinitis, vein ulcers, etc. *
How Does LED Therapy Work?
LED uses different wavelengths of therapeutic colour to induce particular changes in skin conditions. MOST LEDS has 60 programs for various skin conditions using various combinations of therapeutic colours. The colours are as follows:
- Red Light 654nm – Has penetration of 6 to 8mm and it can stimulate fibroblast and production of growth factors as well as increase blood circulation. It can be used for skin rejuvenation and skin healing.*
- Green 525nm – It is restorative and a refreshing therapeutic colour absorbed by melanin. Can be used to decrease hyperpigmentation and sun spots.*
- Blue 469nm – Has antiseptic properties and has been proven in publications as beneficial in treating acne (destroying bacteria which is involved in acne formation).*
- Infra-red 850nm – Penetrates 3 to 4cm. It boosts fibroblast activity and production of ATP – an energy molecule, and it has an anti-inflammatory effect.*
The Advantages of MOST LEDS:
- Has large radiation beam area and can treat large areas.
- 60 pre-set programs with high safety profiles.
- Uses a combination of lights specifically designed for certain skin conditions (Green, Yellow, Blue, Red, and Infra-Red) unlike other LED's who are only using Red and Blue.
- Can use pulsed or continuous light beam, which affects cells differently.
- Has publications in successfully treating stretch marks. *
- Non-invasive, non- painful and can be safely used on all skin types. *
- Taking photosensitizing agents like retinoids
- Thyroid gland problems
- Pregnancy
- Epilepsy
- Cancer patients
Note: MOST LEDS brand that we use at 8th SENSE does not produce UV light and Ionizing radiation that can be dengerous .
Why Will I Chose LED?
It can successfully rejuvenate the skin and most stubborn skin conditions like stretch marks, melasma, and acne in all skin types, which is affordable, safe and without any down-time.*
*Disclaimer: Treatment results will vary on a patient to patient basis. No guarantees can be made

"We Are Witnessing a Straight-out Genocide [of White Farmers in South Africa]," says Ann Coulter
At last the nauseatingly brutal horrors (followed by death) that have been committed against hundreds of white farmers in South Africa over the last many years are reaching the consciousness of white Americans via the internet (certainly not via "mainstream" news!)
If you Google to find out just what those horrors are and have been, you may wish very strongly that you hadn't.
Reassurances that the outlook for white farmers would be rosy in the years ahead were given a few years ago by Julius Malema, former president of the African National Congress (ANC) Youth League and present leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) political party, and Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, national spokesman for the EFF:
"We hope land restoration will not have to come to a situation where Blacks have to also slaughter Whites." — Mbuyiseni Ndlozi
Those anti-white leaders and their followers base their comfort with White Genocide on the lie that their forebears occupied the land that is presently the state of South Africa when whites first arrived there.
Throughout the white world today, the unending stream of such justifications for White Genocide (as if there can ever be a justification for genocide) keeps a large industry of anti-white "intellectuals" in rich clover.
The White Genocide that's being carried out in majority-white countries today is being carried out by flooding those countries with millions of non-whites and forcing assimilation of whites with those non-whites through laws and propaganda, which will result in whites being inter-bred out of existence or reduced to a very small number.
But as Queen Ann, or "Iron Ann" as some pro-whites are calling her this morning(!), points out in the video above, as majority-white countries become minority-white countries, like South Africa is today, there is no reason to think that the hatred of whites that is being preached world-wide today won't cause the South African style of White Genocide to catch up with the immigration-and-assimilation style of White Genocide.

I'm writing up a new intro for a "fake news" talk I'm giving in San Antonio last week. Two of my main interests are politics and online technologies. It's always fascinated me how news in general has become decentralized, and also custom tailored to the people watching it.
One of my earliest memories of being aware of news media was seeing Walter Cronkite on TV. I was reading about Cronkite's career, and I kept seeing he was called "The Most Trusted Man in America." That seems like an awfully lofty title to me, so I looked into that and found that it was based on an actual national survey, where people were asked who they trust the most. Cronkite won handily, in at least a couple of different years -- there was a poll in 1974 and another 1985. Admittedly, the number of options in the polls were somewhat limited, but still, the narrative of Cronkite as "most trusted" has persisted.
And I thought that was odd, because the question "Who is the most trusted person in America?" doesn't seem to even have any clear meaning in 2017. Back then, there were three major networks which ran nightly news; today we have thousands of websites that people follow and curate based on how much the sites say things they like to hear.
Still, I looked into this further, and found that a similar survey was done in 2013, and boy, are the results revealing. The most trusted man in America is... Tom Hanks.
Second is Sandra Bullock. From there the list goes:
3. Denzel Washington
4. Meryl Streep
5. Maya Angelou
6. Steven Spielberg
7. Bill Gates
8. Alex Trebek
9. Melinda Gates
10. Julia Roberts
So obviously a bunch of things jump out from these results. Five of the top ten are actors. One is a director, one is a game show host. The first person on the list who is not an actor is Maya Angelou, who is a lovely and interesting person, is primarily known in the public consciousness as a poet, so she's still sort of in the "entertainment" category. So that's eight out of ten who are entertainers, with Bill and Melinda Gates presumably being trusted at least as much for their charitable foundation as for Bill's history as a software magnate.
There's something weirdly, ironically interesting about a list of "the most trusted people in America" being more than 50% composed of people (if we include Spielberg) who make pretend stories for a living. (That's not an insult. I love movies, and I respect actors and directors. I just don't primarily think of them as people to go to for advice and information.)
Nobody who investigates or reports news is anywhere to be seen on the top ten. I know some people would conclude this means that journalists are inherently untrustworthy, but I think that's a little oversimplistic. Instead I'd point out say that that the way people get their information in an extremely fractured way now. As individual, you may trust or listen to one set of voices, but no matter who those might be, there are almost certainly a lot of people who actively, aggressively dislike them and think they are the biggest liars on the planet.

text: Obersound is a natural wood acoustical panel composed of a wood veneer laminate, Oberflex, applied to a medium density fiberboard (MDF) substrate. The panels (Collection 5.5 Designers and Micro Perforated Collection) are then perforated with decorative patterns inspired by natural or textile related elements to attain design interest. The perforation combined with a special installation technique provides the acoustical sound absorption. Tectonique 5.5 uses a totally new way of mounting suspended ceilings thereby widening the field of design possibilities. Unlike conventional acoustic panels that are not valued for their aesthetics, Obersound combines the beauty of natural wood with superior sound control.

Aside from ClassTag being a superb communication tool for teachers and parents, it also has a Rewards Program that helps educators ease the financial duty of acquiring classroom materials. The Rewards Program allows teachers to earn ClassTag Coins for their classrooms by simply engaging in parent interaction. The more a teacher earns coins each month, the more free school supplies they can "purchase" (for free!) for their classroom.
A parent's role in the Rewards Program is significant. Just by simply using the app, the teacher earns coins that they can spend on classroom supplies. Parents are encouraged to read Announcements, send and reply to private Messages, respond to RSVPs, and Volunteer Requests by teachers. Every month, with parents' engagement, the teacher earns ClassTag Coins that the can be redeemed for school supplies.
ClassTag has partnered up with some amazing family-friendly sponsors that help provide much needed supplies to teachers. We have awarded pencils, stickers, arts supplies, books and other materials to thousands of happy classrooms.
Parents and teachers have access to the Rewards tab. As a parent, you will be able to see how many coins have been accumulated over time and how many coins have been used to redeem classroom materials.
At this time, it is only the teachers who can use these coins to exchange for any item available on the Rewards page. The parent can contribute by engaging in the app to gain more coins.
As a parent, you will see an advertisement on your child's classroom on ClassTag.
You're seeing the ads because your child's class participates in ClassTag Rewards. We partner with respectable family-friendly brands that donate ClassTag Coins. Your teacher can then exchange these special ClassTag Coins for free supplies or Amazon gift cards to get the things that are needed for students, for free.
Our Rewards program also helps us keep ClassTag free for everyone in your class - other apps charge teachers almost $100 per year for an unlimited account, for which they often pay out of pocket.

You could soon be sipping on wine and liquor at your local ABC stores in Virginia.
The general assembly passed a bill Monday to allow tasting events at the state-run Alcohol Beverage Control stores.
That doesn't mean you'll be able to drink anytime you go into an ABC store though. The House amended the bill to require tastings be conducted by trained employees who have permits to conduct those events. The Senate voted 30-10 to agree with that change.
Political coverage from NBC4.
Opponents argue a state-run facility is no place to give away alcohol.
The bill will now go to Gov. Bob McDonnell who can sign, amend or veto it. During the campaign, McDonnell said he wanted to privatize the more than 300 ABC stores. He claimed selling the stores would generate $500 million for Virginia.

Why are all my favorite bands Swedish?
My wife and I disagree over the significance of co-incidences. To her, they are evidence of a larger cosmic pattern in the universe — God's daisy chain or some such. To me they're just random events which happen to link cosmically only from one point of view, i.e. the point of view of the person observing the coincidence. From no other vantage point does it look cosmic. What is an amazing mind-bending coincidence to Fred, is just a boring old fact to Bert. "I can't believe you know so and so!" "Why wouldn't I?" "I don't know, but I guess because I knew both of you but I never put the two of you together..." "Not everything revolves around you." "I know that" "When you leave the room we all carry on talking, you do know that don't you?" "No need to get sarcky..." and so on. However, the number of times I've hooked into a new band, raved about them to all and sundry — Kate normally — and then found out they are Swedish is getting to much to ignore. Its the first question Kate asks me now when I say "have you heard this?" she goes "Are they Swedish/" It happened last night in fact. I got five seconds into playing her Loney, Dear's beautiful track Summertime and she said "are they Swedish?" and I went "Yes, isn't that weird?" I don't know how to explain it. Am reluctant to give into the whole God's-daisy-chain thing and more inclined towards theories involving glacier water and the increased freedom of movement within the EU. Or some such.

A question that I frequently receive from readers is how long it takes to heal from child abuse. I, too, asked the same question when I was new to healing. I was having flashbacks every night, nightmares, insomnia, and feeling like I was losing my mind. I sought therapy, and one of the first questions I asked was how long it would take for me to "get over this." My therapist told me repeatedly that he did not have a crystal ball and could not answer that question. (I did not take that response well!)
I have interacted with numerous child abuse survivors since I started healing in 2003. I have seen some people fly through the healing process and others stay stuck for many years in the same place. The pace of healing really is up to you.
I was on the "fast track." I decided that I was either going to (quite literally) kill myself and not deal with at all, or I was going to "get it over with" as fast as humanly possible. According to my therapist, I did about two years worth of therapy in six months. I lived and breathed healing. I read numerous books on healing. I invited and worked through flashbacks every night. I was on Isurvive every single day, multiple times a day, talking about my memories and seeking advice on healing. My healing process felt like a runaway freight train. My therapist kept telling me to slow down, but I couldn't even if I wanted to … and I didn't want to. I wanted to get this h@#$ "over with" so I could move on with my life.
I know others who have been in therapy for decades but never seem to get anywhere. They meet with a therapist weekly but don't really do any work between their sessions. They are frustrated because they feel like they are making no progress, but they are also unwilling/unable to work through any of their issues without a therapist in the room with them.
My recommendation is taking a middle ground. The more work you do between therapy sessions, the sooner you are going to feel better. Healing from child abuse is very hard work, so pacing yourself is key. (Admittedly, I am not very good at pacing myself, so I cannot really offer much advice on how to do that.)
Back to the original question – How long does it take to heal from child abuse? The answer is completely up to you. You need to talk about what happened until you no longer feel the need to talk about it any longer. For some, the bulk of the work might be accomplished in a year or two; for others, the road will be much longer.
A wise friend told me to look at healing as an investment in the rest of your life. She said that, even if it takes five years or ten, I will have the rest of my life to reap the benefits of the hard work that I am doing now. She also pointed out that healing is not like an on/off switch. You do not go from being completely miserable to completely happy. Healing is a gradual process in which you are always "getting better."

AssureBridge Identity Provider Integration Nexus™ is a perfect solution for a company that faces a challenge of rapidly implementing Single Sign-On into Cloud/SaaS services for employees who are scattered across multiple offices around the world and use a variety of disparate authentication sources to log in daily into their corporate systems. These authentication sources might be Active Directory, LDAP, Database, or any other custom authentication system.
The gateway installs easily on your application server. The gateway supports both internal users on your intranet and remote users accessing applications outside your network or in your web facing tier (DMZ). This makes the Identity Provider Integration Nexus™ the ideal solution for integrating cloud-based applications into your organization without requiring multiple sign-ons or complex ID management.
The AssureBridge Identity Provider Integration Nexus™ supports the following scenarios:
- Your corporate employees wish to access applications in the cloud without additional sign-on (e.g. Salesforce.com, Google Apps, Workday, ServiceNow, etc.)
- Your corporate employees need single sign-on to internal applications that normally do not integrate well with Active Directory (e.g. Java, PHP, Linux,etc)

FRIDAY, Nov. 9, 2007 (HealthDay News) -- As many as 25 percent of men over age 45 admitted to hospital with acute urinary retention (AUR) die within a year, a death risk comparable to that of patients with a broken hip, a new study says.
AUR, the sudden inability to pass urine, is a medical emergency. The condition is often a progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia, an enlargement of the prostate that can interfere with normal urine flow. AUR may also be linked to the presence of other disorders such as diabetes and high blood pressure, according to background information in the study, which was published Nov. 9 by BMJ Online First.
The study authors, from the University College London and London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, analyzed data on more than 176,000 English men over the age of 45 who were hospitalized for treatment of a first episode of AUR between 1998 and 2005.
The researchers found that one in seven of the men with spontaneous AUR (no evidence of precipitating factors other than benign prostatic hyperplasia), and one in four with precipitated AUR, died within one year.
The risk of death increased with age and the presence of other health problems (comorbidity). About half the AUR patients over age 85 with comorbid conditions died within a year after being hospitalized.
The researchers calculated that the overall one-year death risk for men admitted to hospital with AUR was two to three times higher than for the general male population. Among AUR patients ages 45 to 54, the death risk was nearly 24 times higher.
AUR patients may benefit from urgent multidisciplinary care to identify and treat comorbid conditions early, the researchers concluded.

ComForCare Rolls Out Private-Duty Nursing Across Franchise System Elevating Level of Home Care to Wider Client Population
- Program debuts to enthusiastic response at ComForCare's Annual Franchise Conference in Dallas
- Goal is to have private-duty nursing adopted systemwide in 3-5 years
December 05, 2018 // Franchising.com // DETROIT - ComForCare Health Care Holdings, LLC, a premier provider of home care, is rolling out private-duty nursing across the franchise system. The announcement was made at the company's annual franchise conference, held recently in Dallas. The move is part of ComForCare's strategic plan to add programs across the health care continuum to serve older adults in a more holistic way and is the latest in a series of developments that will allow for a more continual transition of care without disrupting the client's lifestyle at home.
Currently thirteen percent of ComForCare's offices offer private-duty nursing, and those services are being met with rapidly increasing demand in those markets and across the system. Now, with a formal program in place, ComForCare's goal over the next three to five years is to have every office obtain the infrastructure and accreditation to offer home care and private-duty nursing to its clients.
"Private-duty nursing is the future of our business. We are aligning home care with the processes and standards of certified home health agencies to elevate the level of care we can provide our clients and broaden the reach and impact of much-needed services," said Steve Greenbaum, CEO of ComForCare and At Your Side Home Care. "Our goal remains to provide our clients with high quality care and to help them live their best life possible. This is one of those bold initiatives that will not only improve that experience and those services, but will also allow our franchise locations to serve a wider client population across U.S. and Canada in the months and years ahead."
Over the past year, ComForCare's headquarters has aggressively staffed and invested in the tools to support this program. Emily Wiechmann, RN, BSN and clinical program manager for ComForCare, joined the organization in May to overhaul the private-duty nursing program in-place and make it scalable for the entire franchise system. The expectation with this program is that existing franchise locations will advance their services to include this while future franchise prospects will adopt this expanded business model from day one.
"Private-duty nursing requires highly complex, hourly care for patients with very acute needs to ensure they are safe in their own home," said Wiechmann. "The goal is for every office to be able to accept clients across the entire age spectrum and have the skills to take on cases that require a higher level of care due to physical restrictions, illnesses or chronic medical conditions."

Sorry to use a cliché, but the past 12 months have continued to be spent in tropical Thailand, and while Bangkok lacks the beaches and tranquility that most would associate with an earthly Eden, it has, for the most part, been a year that was good to me.
What a shame that the country's political scene is once again threatening to spoil 2014 almost as soon as it starts, but for now my focus is on what did happen, rather than what might, as I sum up 2013.
Thankfully, all my loved ones remained fit and well last year, including my three 80-something grandparents. Most importantly, my Scottish Grandma, who has always been full of vigour, has remained so since the death of Grandpa in 2012. If anything, she has thrived, having now been freed from the duties of caring for him virtually full time in the decade or so before he passed away. She has travelled, met her great-grandchildren and been busier than ever in her community. On top of this, when I visited her in June, we enjoyed some brisk walks amid the glorious Highland scenery and she set a pace that would put many people half her age to shame. Long may this continue!
As well as the aforementioned June visit – when I also caught up the rest of the family, as usual, in England and Wales – I had two visits here. First, Dad dropped in for a few days in February, stapled on to the end of a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia. He came alone so it was good to have one-on-one times and some "boys'" activities in Bangkok. In November, my uncle Daudi came here for the first time, accompanied by my Mum, who was making her umpteenth Thai excursion.
Daudi thoroughly enjoyed his trip, which also happened to be his first long-haul holiday since his early 20s! Now in his 50s, and somewhat pessimistic about things especially after the past few years in the doldrums of small-town Wales and with niggling health problems, his mood and vitality noticeably brightened by the day. Also, it's always a pleasure to see first-timers in Thailand, as it serves as a reminder of what charms there are here that expats often take for granted.
The main development here is one of my good friends becoming more than that. In May, Phornthip Korkaewkedsara – or Fai, to use her "official" nickname – became my girlfriend. After 18 months of being deliberately single, I had to move tentatively, but I haven't made the wrong decision. Fai is everything that someone should be in a two-way relationship – affectionate, calm, open-minded, non-needy and non-confrontational – and everything that people should be in general – smart, curious, independent and considerate. I believe we have a lot of potential.
As with any other year, I made new friends. Many of them were involved in boxing training for the annual Operation Smile Fight Night, and as always, they were a great bunch. For a sport in which the essence is to fight one another, you will be hard pressed to find someone you don't like in boxing. The culmination of the training camp was to see several of my friends shine under the bright lights of a brilliant "white collar boxing" event (more on that later). My new boxing friends include Les Weaver, Andy Steel, Richie Bell, Rich Cohen, Matt Christensen, Colin Hastings, David Shackleford, Jon Nutt, Mohamedreza Hamze, Toey Wattana, Jay-R Crisologo, and probably some I have forgotten. And through the bond that boxing provides, my existing friendships in the sport have deepened.
New friends were also made in work, as a series of departures meant a batch of new recruits. I've particularly spent time with a Canadian guy called Blair McBride, whose adventures and misadventures as a newcomer to the country present a constant reminder of what a fascinating place this is.
And what would any year be without the presence of old friends? I had a fantastic time catching up with my childhood and adolescene pals in North Wales – Andy Smith, Andy Owen, Frank Williams, Maurice Whitehead, Jason Roberts, Nick Ellis, Liam Hunt, Rachel Jones, Jane Bebbinton and more – during my summer trip home. And many thanks to Greg Harrison and Piers Evans for travelling to see me. My time is extremely tight when I go home and I really appreciated them making the effort, and of course it was invaluable to see them again.
Also while back home, I enjoyed the incongruous sight of Sam Myatt getting married. Anyone who knew Sam from his teens and twenties will know why I said that, so his wife Jody must be a hell of a woman to get him to settle down!
I also caught up with Mark Linaker, who I went to high school with but hadn't seen since the late '90s. Thanks to Facebook, we had stayed in touch sporadically since joining, but when he came on holiday to Thailand in November, it was imperative that we met up. Some people may bemoan the rise of social media, but things like this wouldn't be possible without it.
In sadder news, my friend Bjorn Lowendahl passed away in August. Twice my age at 72, he nevertheless was a fun character with plenty of shared interests. I used to do freelance editing work for him, for his books about China (or, rather, books about books about China, if you follow), and he was so old school that he didn't use email. Instead, I would have to travel to Hua Hin, where he lived, to collect and deliver the chapters. We would then typically discuss my (hand-written) edits over a big seafood dinner, and then hit the bars afterwards, where he would chase the girls despite his age and academic look. And he wasn't creepy with it, it was all in good fun. He didn't appear to be ill. Indeed he routinely cycled around town and swam in the ocean every day. I last saw him just three weeks before his death, when he talked of work, property and travel plans – in other words, not topics that someone would discuss if they knew they had a serious problem. Instead, he apparently passed away one night on a bench in his garden, presumably of a heart attack or stroke. I can only hope it was quick and painless, and followed one of his trademark nights out. A quote of his is poignant for me, and sums him up well: "I do enjoy your visits, because I don't have to be so serious."
Apart from my home trip, I travelled abroad just once in 2013, when I took a week to visit friends in Bali and Singapore in April.
I checked in on my pal Gavin Mitchell in Bali first. He had moved there a few months prior, and would leave soon after, a job placement having gone awry, so it was well timed on my behalf. For a full account of my trip, click here.
This was followed by a couple of nights in Singapore, visiting Mark and Ning Fenn. Similarly, they were nearing the end of their tenure there and would return to Bangkok shortly after. I'd been to Singapore twice before and felt it suffered in comparison to its neighbours. Yes, it's clean, orderly and safe, but it has largely lost its Asian character. However, there is always a difference between visiting somewhere alone as a tourist, and meeting friends who live in a country, and so this time I got an altogether better impression of the place. I got an idea of daily routines there with Mark and Ning, and also caught up with my Malaysian pal TT Seah, who made a deliberate effort to show me some of the more "ethnic" parts of the island that still exist. I also met up for a drink with Leo Caballes, a Filipino friend also living in Singapore who I hadn't seen since the distant past of when I was backpacking in Bangkok (2005, for the record).
During my trip home in June, I finally benefitted from some glorious weather. In previous years, it's been as if the elements have conspired against me when I returned to Britain, to remind me why I moved to the tropics. However, last year the sun shone most of the time, and it shone brightest while I was in Scotland, visiting my grandma. The Scottish Highlands look fantastic even when the weather is drab, and under the sun they provide some of the most vivid, dramatic and beautiful scenes you could care to see anywhere in the world. I also visited my traditional haunts of North Wales and Kent, where my mum and dad live, respectively, and dropped in on Portsmouth, Barnsley and Nottingham too, where my sisters and step-brother now live. In Portsmouth I met my niece Violet (sister Melissa's first child) for the first time, while in Barnsley I renewed the acquaintance of my other niece Megan and nephew Jake (youngest sister Rebecca's kids). Step-brother Andy Wilson now lives in Nottingham, which I briefly dropped in on en route from Kent to Scotland. My hectic two-week itineraries in Britain have become even more packed as family members have scattered further across the isles!
But my most memorable trip was a domestic one, when I went to Ko Kood with Mum, Daudi and Fai. A five-hour drive from Bangkok and a one-hour speedboat run from Trat will take to a pristine, largely undeveloped island thick with jungle, with just a few resorts around the fringes, well apart, and designed so the buildings are set back from the beaches. Seeing it from the sea, the island looks almost entirely uninhabited. Some of the scenes are almost South Pacific-esque in their beauty, and the tranquility was most welcome for a city dweller. We stayed at the Neverland Resort, which is both near the beach and a river, and is run by cheerful staff and a little dog who might just have the happiest life in the world. While there, I was struck by how blessed I am to live in Thailand; to have somewhere like this within driving distance of the city. Yes, there are decent getaways not far from London, for example, but you can never guarantee the weather there, and it's so much more expensive. And it was a big hit with Daudi, too. In this, his first trip to Thailand, he also visited Bangkok, Ko Chang and Lopburi, and said he liked them all but concluded: "Ko Kood was really a special place".
My love affair with the sport deepened as I completed another training camp for the annual Operation Smile Fight Night. Ultimately I didn't get matched but training is never wasted, and I feel I achieved my highest fitness levels since my teenage years, if not ever, at the age of 36. Training at Bangkok Fight Club with Craig Somerville, Franck Marin and Martin Lowe, and at Jitti Gym with Jitti Damriram's team was as punishing and rewarding as ever.
The fight night itself, held again at the Dusit Thani Hotel in Bangkok, was another rousing success. The bouts were spectacular, and I had the best seat in the house as timekeeper! It was great to see my friends put on such a show in front of an enthusiastic audience, and to play a small part in an event that raised some 3 million baht for a most worth charity (Operation Smile raises funds for cleft palate surgery for poor children).
The week before the big night, my pal Paul Weir, the former two-time world champion from Scotland, was in Bangkok on holiday and graciously agreed to pop in to the Fight Club for a training session with the guys who were set to box in a few days' time. A former champ himself and now a trainer of some of Britain's top professionals, Paul's input was a real treat for us lowly "white collar boxers" and that he would do that for nothing but the love of the sport shows what a top guy he is.
Paul's young charge Jon Slowey, who I wrote about for Boxing News in 2012 when he travelled to Bangkok for a training camp, had a great year, remaining undefeated and picking up two championships plus a BN Fight of the Year nomination. He is now 16-0 and ranked No.6 in Britain.
At the other end of the boxing career spectrum, my old mucker Audley Harrison, who I worked with in the early '00s, finally retired in April at the age of 41 following a short-time trouncing at hands of US hopeful Deontay Wilder. This followed an unprecedented (at the time) second Prizefighter tournament win two months earlier, in which he looked fantastic. The two shows illustrated Harrison's two extremes and highlighted why he has always been such a compelling enigma. Almost inevitably, his retirement announcement was later retracted, but no comeback fight has been arranged. Read my take on Harrison's retirement – as it stood at the time – here.
Finally, I had no personal connection to Kompayak Porpramook vs Koki Eto in Bangkok in August, but I was there, and it was one of the best fights I have ever seen. A 12-round war of attrition under the fierce afternoon sun which incredibly was won by the visiting Japanese boxer. Kompayak – the Thai Arturo Gatti – finally met a man whose will he couldn't break and who was even fitter than he was, and it was stirring from first bell to last. Watch it here.

Bulgarian journalist's rape and murder stokes fears about press freedom
Paris - Viktoria Marinova, a 30-year-old Bulgarian journalist who had recently become the anchor of a talk show focused on investigative reporting, was raped and killed on Saturday in a case that has sent shockwaves through Europe.
The motivation behind her killing remains unknown, and Bulgarian authorities say they have yet to establish a link between her death in the northeastern city of Ruse and her work as a journalist. But because Marinova is the third reporter to be killed in Europe in the past year, the news stoked anxieties about the safety of journalists on the continent.
"Again a courageous journalist falls in the fight for truth and against corruption," Frans Timmermans, vice president of the European Commission, said Monday in Brussels. The European Union pledged its support for Bulgarian authorities as they continued their investigation.
Bulgarian officials emphasized that there was no evidence yet to connect Marinova's killing to her work.
"It's about rape and murder," Interior Minister Mladen Marinov said.
Bulgarian media reported Monday that the park where Marinova was killed is adjacent to a psychiatric facility and authorities were investigating whether a patient could have been Marinova's attacker.
"The best criminologists have been sent to Ruse - let's not hurry them," Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said. "A large amount of DNA has been obtained."
Marionva, a former lifestyle journalist, was a television presenter for TVN, a popular channel in northeastern Bulgaria. Last month she began anchoring a program called "Detector," which focused on political investigations.
Only one segment of the relaunched program aired before her death. It featured the work of two journalists investigating the alleged misuse of public EU funds by a network of corporations in the region. The journalists - Dimitar Stoyanov, from the Bulgarian website Bivol, and Atilla Biro, a Romanian journalist from the Rise Project - were briefly detained by local authorities in mid-September.
Transparency International, a global corruption watchdog, has identified Bulgaria as the most corrupt member state in the EU. Meantime, Reporters Without Borders ranked it 111 out of 180 countries in its annual world press freedom index, the lowest in the European Union.
Atanas Tchobanov, the editor-in-chief of Bivol, said in a telephone interview that he was skeptical of the government's response. "We cannot downplay any possibility and any version, but if you are investigating the killing, you are looking for a motive," he said.
At the same time, he clarified that Marinova was a television presenter and technically not an investigative reporter. "She wanted to make investigative reporting," he said. "Who knows? Probably she would be a good investigative reporter one day, but she's no longer here."
Marinova's killing - as a random act of violence or as a targeted hit - comes after two other cases that provoked concerns about press freedom in Europe.
In October 2017, Daphne Caruana Galizia, a Maltese reporter who specialized in government corruption and money laundering, was killed by a car bomb near her home. And in February, Ján Kuciak, a Slovakian journalist who also reported on government corruption, was shot and killed along with his financee, Martina Kusnirova.
Also on the minds of press freedom advocates is the disappearance of Jamal Khashoggi, a prominent Saudi critic and Washington Post contributor, who vanished last week after entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. Turkish authorities have asserted that he was killed upon entry.

Every once in a while, a certain event reminds me of a certain quote.
The latest of these occurred this morning, while reading about the ridiculous treatment the Turkish ambassador to Israel was given by foreign ministry officials. Click here to see a short video clip (in English) of what it's about, and to see the pictures from the meeting itself with the ambassador.
But this is how Haaretz tells the story:
Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon summoned the Turkish ambassador in Israel for clarification regarding a recent television drama depicting actors dressed as Shin Bet officers who kidnap babies… During the meeting, Turkey's ambassador was seated in a low sofa, and facing him, in higher chairs, were Ayalon and two other officials – an arrangement carried out at Lieberman's (the Foreign Minister) orders.
A photo-op was held at the start of the meeting, during which Ayalon told the photographers in Hebrew: "Pay attention that he is sitting in a lower chair and we are in the higher ones, that there is only an Israeli flag on the table and that we are not smiling."
Are you kidding me? Is this guy serious? "Pay attention we're not smiling"?!?!?!? How old is this guy? Six? That's what first popped to my mind, how childish Ayalon's behaviour is. But actually, I think it's not only childish – there's something even more primitive, maybe medieval.
And THAT's when Pulp Fiction came to mind…
It's late in the film, and Butch has just saved Marcellus from being raped by Zed and his buddy.
Butch: You okay?
Marsellus: Naw man. I'm pretty fuckin' far from okay.
Butch: What now?
Marsellus: What now? Let me tell you what now. I'ma call a coupla hard, pipe-hittin' niggers, who'll go to work on the homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talkin', hillbilly boy? I ain't through with you by a damn sight. I'ma get medieval on your ass.
Now, I understand there's a lot of tension between Turkey and Israel these days. Not only that, I think Turkey has a lot to answer for. But is there really a need to stoop so low? That's what Ayalon did, basically. He got medieval on dat ambassador's ass…

Why Train Krav Maga
The basic principle of Krav Maga is inflicting maximum damage to the opponent(s) in order to end the fight as quickly as possible. Brutal counter-attacks using your most effective tool (knees, elbows, weapons, etc.) to target your opponent's weakest area (neck, throat, eyes, knees, ribs, solar plexus, groin, etc.) are the focus. For this reason, it is not a competitive martial arts, like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or Muay Thai, it is reality based self defense. Lets explore some of the reasons you should train Krav Maga.
Nothing boosts confidence levels like knowing you are legitimately prepared for whatever. Very few people have any formal self-defense or fight training. As a result, in tense situations where most people lose it, you will keep your cool. If something ever does go down, you're ready. There are so many variables in a real life situation. Our job is to train in a way to handle that stress and introduce that to our training so we are better prepared.
Most martial arts are strongly based in ritual, and as a result often incorporate different forms or strange techniques. Krav is different. Brutal efficiency is the only concern. For this reason, many of the strikes and defenses utilize the same basic motion (e.g. the straight punch and many of the defenses against punches and knives). Moreover, most of the techniques are built upon the body's natural instincts (e.g. bringing your hands to your neck during a choke defense). Because of this we can become efficient and better prepared with far less training then the average martial arts. Keeping it simple, instinctive and effective is what Krav Maga is all about. If it works, you get home safe, then it is Krav Maga.
Between the drills themselves and the conditioning, you are guaranteed a hell of a workout. Three minutes of throwing punches or knee strikes is exhausting. So is three minutes of burpees. Our level 1 Krav test has a reputation of being one of the most physically exhausting tests around. Seriously. Three hours straight of punches, kicks, choke defenses, and groundwork is no joke. If Krav Maga isn't hard enough, we offer a Strikefit Bag Class that will work you out. We take the strikes, blocks, and movements of Krav Maga Israeli Self Defense and integrate them into a 1-hour, insane-intensity, heavy bag class. Yes, you'll hit the bag. But you'll also do burpees and use your own body weight to change your body. That's because StrikeFit encompasses the essence of retzev, a Hebrew word for "continuous motion." You will push your body because growth is in discomfort.

When Wayfair contacted me and asked if I was interested in partnering with them on an outdoor space, first I said yes.
Then I decided to go all Downton Abbey and create an English inspired stone paver patio.
Kind of like the Earl of Grantham meets a farmhouse meets concrete pavers from the home improvement store meets the back meadow.
It's a little bit country and a little bit English manor house.
With extra manor.
Here's the overall view of the space.
This is located on our property next to the house and the pond.
See the little white arbor at the left of the picture.
It is surrounded by roses and phlox that haven't bloomed yet and it takes you down to a pond.
It's where Fred the giant turtle lives.
Here's the view of it taken to the left looking at the house.
The space directly in front of you is the screened-in porch.
It overlooks the new stone patio.
Just in case you were worried about the patio getting too fancy, just know that it started out life as a basketball court.
Dribble. Dribble.
When we bought the property it was an asphalt slab that they used to play basketball on.
And as exciting as a basketball court is, I had a bigger vision for the space.
So we moved the court to the back of the property and made this into something a little more "invite the neighbors we're having a party" kind of space.
My husband and father-in-law drilled into the asphalt to anchor it in place.
We had laid these pavers previously and tried to grow moss into between them and never really worked.
Mostly it was pavers gone wild with weeds.
So we purchased this marble stone from the home improvement store and filled in the spaces with it.
There's metal edging around the sides next to the grass to hold the rock in place.
Once the pergola and rock and pavers were in place it was time to decorate.
I added these standing planters around the edges of the pergola.
They were really reasonable and a great option for raised beds in a space.
They have a drainage hole in the bottom for easy watering.
Next I added this seating area with these four chairs grouped around the fire pit.
I filled the chairs with outdoor pillows.
And finished everything off with a few other accessories.
Like these metal spheres and metal terrariums.
And then I was done with the space and ready to photograph.
Except I needed sunshine.
And the forecast looked like this.
And it rained and rained and rained.
I felt like Noah was about to show up with the ark.
And then just as I had given up hope and was planning my speech to Wayfair about photographing it in a month that started with a J…..
….the sun came out.
And it danced across the grass and shone through the trees and sent sunbeams twinkling across the rock.
I grabbed my camera and snapped away.
And as I stood there with the sun on my face and the gentle breezes blowing the leaves and the birds chirping and the crickets singing in tune….
….I saw this.
And my heart smiled.
And I knew that I knew…..that I knew.
It was going to be a wonderful summer. 🙂
disclosure: This makeover was sponsored by Wayfair.
All opinions and rainbows are my own.
Please see my disclosure page for additional information.

No-Boil Manicotti
This might be my favorite no-boil pasta dish! I love to make manicotti, but I hate to stuff the shells. They are flimsy and difficult to fill once they've been cooked. This No-Boil Manicotti eliminates that flimsy pasta noodle. You fill the noodles uncooked. They are super easy to fill with cheese! YAY!
We baked the manicotti in a meat sauce. You can totally eliminate the meat from this dish if you would like. It will taste great either way. Since you don't have to cook the noodles, this casserole only takes a few minutes to assemble. It is a great dish for a potluck. It makes a lot. We ate the leftover for lunch and dinner. It was just as good, if not better, reheated. Serve this with a salad and some crusty garlic bread for an easy weeknight meal!
No-Boil Manicotti
- 1 lb ground beef or Italian sausage
- 1 jar (26-oz) spaghetti sauce
- 1-1/2 cups water
- 15-oz cottage cheese or ricotta cheese
- 2-1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 Tbsp dried parsley
- 1 egg
- 1 (8-oz) box manicotti noodles
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly spray a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook hamburger or Italian sausage until no longer pink. Drain fat. Stir in spaghetti sauce and water. Remove from heat.
- Combine cottage or ricotta cheese, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, parsley and egg. Fill uncooked manicotti noodles with cheese mixture. Place in greased pan. Pour meat sauce over noodles. Cover with foil.
- Bake for 45 to 55 minutes. Remove foil and top with remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake an additional 5 minutes to melt cheese.

So far, 2017 has seen an unprecedented degree of pressure and a raft of new policies and regulations for companies that engage self-employed tradesmen within the construction industry. But will the issues get a fair debate in the forthcoming snap election, or will it only focus on Brexit?
Well, Nick Pilgrim, MD of CIS payroll experts EEBS, examines the issues in a series of articles, highlighting the potential impact on both the construction industry and the wider economy.
The Gig Economy
"The scene is set by the ongoing influence of a number of high-profile cases from recent months (Sports Direct, Uber, Deliveroo, City Sprint and Pimlico to name a few) that have brought the phrase "Gig Economy" to the forefront of the media. Sadly, most of that commentary has been sensational, inaccurate or, to risk sounding like Donald Trump, written to support a left-leaning press agenda. The arguments need to be heard from all sides – and quickly!"
What exactly is the Gig Economy?
"Having looked at a number of online definitions, it would be accurate to describe the Gig Economy as "A labour market characterised by the prevalence of short-term contracts or freelance work, as opposed to permanent jobs."
The phrase was actually coined at the height of the financial crisis in 2009, when unemployed workers made a living by gigging or working several part-time jobs, when and wherever they could.
The Gig Economy today typically covers work such as couriers, food delivery on bikes, ride-hailing drivers and other low-skilled jobs, and can also include zero hours contracts."
Why is Construction being included in the issue?
"To set my stall out straight away, I think it's entirely unreasonable to include construction workers within the same definition in the first place! Irrespective of the need for all construction workers to gain and maintain strict CSCS health and safety qualifications before they can start work. In spite of construction being the only industry to have its own tax regime specifically for the self-employed.
Even though the construction industry has a largely unchallenged, long established, well understood and accepted model of self-employment, the Government still includes the industry within a list of potential abusers of self-employment and intend to make the industry an integral part of the Taylor review."
What's next? The Taylor Review
"What's the Taylor review, did I hear you say? Well, I'm glad you asked! In response to the "tutting classes" ongoing demands for "something to done about the Gig Economy" in November last year, the government appointed Mathew Taylor to conduct a wide-ranging review of employment practices within the economy.
Although the review was given a typically dry frame of reference, the widely leaked news of the review ran something like "Crackdown announced on exploitation of self-employed workers in the Gig Economy". Does that sound like an even-minded and impartial review to you?
What makes Mr Taylor the best-qualified person in the country to chair such a wide-ranging and important issue to society? Well, Mr Taylor is a former policy head for the Blair government and is currently in charge of the Royal Society of Arts. Perfectly placed then, to understand the pressures and needs of struggling small-to-medium companies in the construction sector. Last one out please turn off the lights."
"In conclusion, the outcome of the Taylor Review is expected to be delivered this summer and whether the announcement of the snap election will affect the publishing date remains to be seen. However, you would think that if the Tories want the self-employed vote (which according to their figures is increasing to numbers of around 4.8 million), they'll be wise to give them a break.
EEBS continue to work hard with the UK's leading tax advisors to ensure their construction clients are protected from HMRC and Employment Rights claims. If you're concerned about the status of your workers then contact EEBS for free advice. If after completing a compliance check (which is a quick chat on the phone) we find that you do not require our services, then that's a win-win situation for you and your company!"
