[ad name=”AD_INBETWEEN_POST”] Let us create a simple Accordion Menu using jQuery. Accordion Menu are the menu with some animation effect. It has few top line menu items which when clicked toggles to open sub menu options. When another top level menu is selected, other open menu will automatically collapse and save useful screen area. We will use jQuery effects to animate the accordion menu. jQuery provides Fade In/Fade Out effect, but accordion menu looks more realistic if we use Slide In / Slide Out effect.
Note that in above CSS code, we have applied Round Corner CSS to our menu to improve the look. Although this technique works with all the modern web browser, but it will not work with Internet Explorer. If we want to change the look n feel for internet explorer, we may want to include IE-Specific stylesheet to our HTML page.
If you notice the above code, we have made the first menu item in accordion menu visible.
To make a menu item visible by default, just add its index value to the above code. For example to display 1st menu item we added eq(0) in above code.
No article is complete without an online demo. Here is the online demo for Accordion Menu.
Nice menu, but it would be better if the html code was valid (whether it is html or xhtml).
@Cilia – I have modified the source and made it valid HTML. Have a look. Now the sub <UL> is part of main accordion <LI>. This should not break the HTML validation now.
tested in IE6,7,8- it doesn’t work..
You may want to modify the css as the rounded corners don’t look good as the ul is now inside the li.
otherwise it will roll up itself.
thats awsome for a biginner ….
This is not work on IE 6/7. Please anybody can tell me how it can be possible??
The reason this does not to work in IE is due to the fact that the HTML used is invalid, and ot a problem with IE (for a change).
When I’ve worked it out I’ll post a solution. Unless someone beats me to it.
Awesome tutorial on Jquery. I was looking for such an article. Thanks dude!
I have implemented this code works fine for me.
How can we modify this menu id submenu is menu and there is submenu below it.
In other words if we have tree like menu.
I love this menu, firstly is it okay to use on a website for a charity?
Secondly, Do you have a workaround so that it works okay in IE6/IE7???
@Chris: Ofcourse you can use this on any website. This tutorial is to just demonstrate in simple way how to create an accordion menu. Feel free to use and if possible link back to this tutorial so that others can find this.
Beautiful, great, nice!!! But it won’t work in IE! Stupid browser….
This is great but you made some mistakes and in the end your site won’t validate with that.
I just like valid code, otherwise this is cool!
First of all thanks for the tutorial. It really helped me out for an important site.
But there is one more thing I’d like to do.
I want menu title color to be changed when clicked on it.
I can do that when you go to the page with a simple class=”active” solution but when you’re viewing submenus without opening any pages, how to do that?
thanks for the tutorial.as successfully completed my accordion menu..
but now i need a struts2 jquery horizontal menu..
can any body help me out please..
This is very easy and nice tutorial to understand and use accordian.
What if you have more levels?
With this solution only the first level will open and collapse.
Unfortunately oval background don’t work in IE9, do you know how to fix it?
On #accordion div, I think you forgot to put px after the three 5… (5 5 5 7px).. thanks for the article!
Hi, this is quite a nice script. I was wondering how I could have the submenu to drop down on mouse over and how to add horizontal slide out to the right of the submenu items when you mouse over them.
As valid today as it was when you created this tutorial.
Jquery UI is such a pain, especially with such an elegantly simple solution such as yours!
To show third category by default and hide rest, you can use following code. Note that eq(2) selects the third list which in this case is “Latest”.
Yes, very nice little accordion, but. I do not want the first sub menu to show when the page loads. when i comment out that line, the accordion closes when I click on a child of that menu. I want that menu to stay open while on those child menu choices. I only want it to close wen they click on a different parent. does that make sense? look my client site on the ‘events’ page. the accordions are on the 2nd & 3rd buttons. I am still cleaning up the templates so only the 2nd accordion has live links. the links with a # href, hold their position just fine.
All I get is a text box with the 3 categories and their children listed. New to this coding thing, so maybe I need to add something in the HTML part.
If i click the menu it does not displays anything.
Note: I include all the code that u have posted here!
I have run this in Google chrome but it is not working, help me!
Thanks you so much… no words… stunning script!
Excellent script.. Thanks a LOT for sharing…!!!
i try to use this menu in mvc-3, but i don’t understand because jQuery code is not working, can everyone help me?
please which part of my html should i paste the jquery code, its not working for me.
Thanks, how to create one more ul inside the ul. this code support one more level and how to do ?
Thank you very much for the tutorial! It’s easy and useful.
Hi there, i wonder, instead of clicking in the menu and the categorys dropdown, it is possible to rollover whit the mouse in the menu button and the subcategrys slide down automatacly?
Hi. Is there a way to highlight the tab which is opened, eg, when sports is clicked, it is black with orange text?
Did you find solution for your question. If you have solution can you please share with me.
Currently I’m in the same situation. Your immediate reply is appreciated.
the menu is not compatible with Internet Explore! it can run in IE ?
It does appear to be broken in IE v9. Not on the iframed version running on this page, but if you click on the VIEW DEMO version it is.
It seems that it is quirks mode that is breaking it. You will need to force the browser out of quirks mode with the doc type. Also the rounded borders wont show in ie6-8 as it doesnt support it.
How do u switch to horizontal mode? Thanks!
HELP! I’ve tried this and every single Accordion Menu tutorial I can find and always come up with the same result! The demos work fine on the website, but even when I copy and paste into my own files, it won’t work! The menus will NOT expand!
Thank you so much!!! Days of searching, multiple cups of coffee later I have found this and can finally move forward! I am new to web design and am grateful for your tut!
In your tutorial you have the “Sports”, “Technology” and “Latest” surrounded by a div.
But then, in your running demo the divs are not there. I do need the divs but when I put them in my code then the example does not work.
Can I gave the the submenu for an image click which is placed on right of a main category?
Hi, thanks for ur menu tutorial.. working good.. and i hav one question.. how to write position for menu..

Thanks a lot! And thumbs up for your support on this site!

Would you be kind and guide me to fix or solve this problem, please?

Btw I’m having a problem with this. Whenever I click on any menu item, it slides down and then it slightly slide up a little bit, like jerking. I don’t want this. How to sort out this problem?
Wow ! Simple yet effective. Thanks man !
Would you have an example of multi-level displays? i.e. one menu with accordion and one of the options in this accordion having another menu, which in turn is an accordion menu with options. – i.e. 3 levels?
Very nice. Is there a way that after clicking on one of the URL’s from the accordion menu that in the next page the same tab is opened unfolded which contains the URL instead of the first as default.
I will also enjoy to see that!
Super example and very easy to implement, thanks very much indeed.
I wonder if there’s something that needs to be added for the accordion to appear ‘closed’ when first loaded please? The top item always seems to be open when I load it.
Is there a way that after clicking on one of the URL’s from the accordion menu that in the next page the same tab is opened unfolded which contains the URL instead of the first as default.
I also have the same question as above. Anyone can help?
as someone suggested above but the accordian tab is still open on the page. I’d like all of them to be closed and only open on clicking. Have done a big long search for the answer to no avail. Anyone got a tip?
Once again, wonderful to find this accordion, it looks great and am rapt was so simple to follow! Yay. Thankyou!
Thanks so much for your instruction. Could you please show me how to add it to the Google Site.
It was nice tutorial. Is there a way to highlight the tab which is opened, eg, when sports is clicked, it is black with orange text?
"background-color" : "#a0b47e", "color" : "#FFF"
, "background-position" : " 4px -2px"
"background-color" : "#c6d9e7", "color" : "#000"
, "background-position" : " 4px 7px"
Hello Pleas help me out….
Hi, thanks for the tip – the accordian works, but my entire screen scrolls, when an item in my menu is clicked. Please tell me how I can prevent this.
It works fantastic… it’s a great tutorial BUT — It won’t validate in HTML Validator.
Thanks, and sorry for this comment.
but the first menu item still shows by default. Can you help me please?
this accordion is stupid, because it will not work an li does not have any ul. or subcategory.
Nice work! Can I keep open categories when I click on another one? Because like this, every time you click on a closed category when another one is open, that one is closed.
I’ve a problem with the menu in firefox.
The menu is perfect in Chrome and IE.

There’s this interesting thread right now on Reddit’s /r/gallifrey subreddit where we were asked to rank all the Doctor Who series finales since 2010. Check out the discussion, it’s great. I haven’t contributed to the thread myself because I needed time to collect my thoughts on the series finales. Also, I haven’t seen most of the episodes in ages.
Now that I’ve had time to think about it, here’s what I thought of all the Doctor Who series finales. Of course, if you’re not caught up with Doctor Who, I’ll have to warn you: THERE ARE SPOILERS.
Face The Raven/Heaven Sent/Hell Bent – I still can’t get over how perfect this three-part finale was. We’ve seen the Doctor put through the gauntlet lots of times in the revived series, but never on this level – losing a companion, and before he can even process Clara dying, he was suddenly kept prisoner for billions of years, dying over and over again until he manages to punch through a wall of material harder than diamond. Let’s not even forget that he manages to overthrow the Lord President of Gallifrey and subsequently escape by stealing a TARDIS all over again. Of course, having Clara wiped from his memory is another level of heartbreaking as well. This trilogy is an absolute masterpiece.
The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang – Man, wasn’t Moffat bristling with ideas here? He managed to stretch a single Dalek chase into the bulk of an episode, and somehow this story with just the main cast and shot mostly in a single location turns into one of the most epic endings in all of Who. This is still, well, now demoted to my second-favorite series (mainly because series 9 is just so strong), and this finale is one of the biggest reasons why.
Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways – The game show parodies from the Bad Wolf did not age well, to be honest. Thank goodness we just have the Daleks in full force, totally brutal, and forcing Eccleston’s Doctor, fresh off the trauma of the Time War, to confront his actions and reaffirm that he’d rather be a coward, anytime. Such a satisfying ending, and we still have one of the best regenerations ever.
Dark Water/Death in Heaven – In many ways, this finale suffers from the same excesses that plagued Moffat’s writing from the latter part of Matt Smith’s run – it was bloated and full of ideas that were never fully explored, but I really enjoyed the exploration of death and Peter Capaldi’s attempts to steer the Doctor into a more stripped-down direction. Plus, Missy elevates these episodes so, so, so, much.
The Name of the Doctor – We probably could’ve gotten more out of it if Matt Smith did not injure his leg, but I enjoyed this. Sure, I felt that the Clara reveal could have been better, but the montage of her echoes encountering the different Doctors was well-done. My biggest complaint is that it served as a lead-up to The Day of the Doctor, which hurt the episode as a series finale. But hey, we got the War Doctor reveal, which gave me shivers.
Utopia/The Sound of Drums/The Last of the Time Lords – The harrowing Master trilogy of series 3 was great. I loved everything about this – yes, especially Martha, who I feel has received undeserved hatred from the fandom – right until the Super Saiyan Jesus Doctor part. David Tennant’s 10th Doctor giving his forgiveness to the Master was a great idea. Too bad we had to see the entire world praying to him for it to happen.
The Stolen Earth/Journey’s End – I would rank this higher due to Donna’s exit, which is the most heartbreaking exit ever. But I felt that the whole premise of the finale was hokey, Tennant’s fake regeneration was a cop-out, and Daleks as the big baddie of the series has finally worn out its welcome at this point. Thank goodness Doctor-Donna and all the fun she brought really made up for it.
Army of Ghosts/Doomsday – I did not like Rose at all. She’s probably my least favorite New Who companion. But boy did they give her an exit. This is RTD at the top of his game in hurting our feelings, giving us the second-best heartbreaking companion exit of his run. Too bad her exit was the only memorable thing about this finale.
The Wedding of River Song – Setting up the whole finale in an alternate universe, for me, really took away all the urgency it was trying to establish. If there was one episode that deserved to be a two-parter for it to fully explore the ideas it presented, it would be this one. It felt rushed and haphazard, and the actual wedding did not feel like it carried real weight – so the Doctor wed River so she’d stop being a petulant child and save the universe? I did not enjoy thinking about that. But hey, the Tessalecta twist was great. I honestly never saw that one coming.
So that’s what I thought of all the Doctor Who series finales so far. Do you agree with my rankings? Let’s talk about it in the comments!

Children with braces should brush their teeth after every meal. It is recommended that children hold the toothbrush at a 45 degree angle and brush along the gum line. Brushing often and properly, in addition to dental cleanings every six months from San Jose orthodontists at Top Best *8* San Jose Dentists Specialists Centers - Jonathan H. Kim, DDS, Inc., is an important way to reduce the risk of cavities and gingivitis (bleeding of swollen gums).
Children should also floss at least once a day. San Jose orthodontics by Top Best *8* San Jose Dentists Specialists Centers - Jonathan H. Kim, DDS, Inc. recommends the use of floss threaders in conjunction with standard floss or super floss to help floss under and between brackets and wires.
Orthodontic appliances from San Jose orthodontics by Top Best *8* San Jose Dentists Specialists Centers - Jonathan H. Kim, DDS, Inc. must be in place and intact at all times for the treatment to work properly. If your child's bands, brackets or wires break, please contact our office for an appointment as soon as possible. If your child's wires break and your child is experiencing some discomfort, we recommend that you use wax to cover the sharp end of the wire.

The Victoria Public Hospital was built in June 1887 as the Victoria Cottage Hospital through the efforts of Alice Tilley, wife of the Lieutenant-Governor of New Brunswick. It was incorporated in 1898, and the original wooden structure served the medical needs of Fredericton until a new facility, the Frazer Memorial Hospital, was built near the original site in 1922. The stone-faced structure was designed with four floors, and had the capacity for two operating rooms, an X-ray room and a dietary kitchen.
By 1935, even this structure was not enough, and the old wooden hospital was demolished to accommodate the expansion of the Frazer building. An east, west and north wing were added, with capacity for 138 more patients. Further expansion in 1950 saw the addition of a self-contained laundry, power and storage facility. A 1960 renovation and expansion project, partly financed by the nearby community of Oromocto, New Brunswick saw 97 more beds added to the facility.
Local demands eventually exceeded the Frazer building's capacity, and led to the closure of the Victoria Hospital and its subsequent replacement by the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital, in 1978. Arthur M. Limerick (b. 1908) and Ralph Victor Limerick (b. 1910) were brothers and members of the family law firm. Ralph became a judge of the Supreme Court of the province. Both men served as trustees of the Victoria Hospital from 1954-1959.

I am confused and think I may need to get a second opinion. I had viral meningitis about 6months ago. Doctor did a mri and it came back normal. I have continued to have headaches in the lower back of my head and neck pain it became bearable after a couple of months then started getting bad again. I am having numbness in my feet and hands and balance problems, headaches worse when laying flat and shooting pain in head and back if I sneeze. So 6mo later doctor does another mri this time a borderline chiari 1 with minimal crowding is found. The doctor refers me to neurologist. The neurologist immediately dismisses the mri findings as not a problem because chiari was not reported on the previous mri. But also says that meningitis is not the problem either. Can chiari not show on one mri but then show up later? I am not improving and symptoms are getting worse. Should I get a second opinion? The neurologist has ordered another mri this time a cervical mri. And nerve tests for my arms and legs. I think he thinks the headache is migraine but I have had it continuously for 6months. I have had migraines in the past this is definitely different. He has given me a migraine medication to try but it doesn’t help at all. I am not sure if i should go to someone else or let him keep looking for other causes. He does not think the headaches and numbness and balance issues are related to each other. But they all started around the same time.
I had viral meningitis 8 years ago and an MRI at the time revealed a Chiari 1. They local hospital never told me much about it as they have little experience. In the years since, my arms have been going completely numb at night and it’s spreading to my legs now. That alone is causing a series of other issues. I’ve also had recurring excruciating headaches and ear issues.
Location, money and fear have kept me from seeking more medical help, but if you are in a position to figure out what’s going wrong, I say go for it. Please do your research and find the best care available to you.
In all of this, I’ve tried to take a antibiotics a few different times for my ear issues and found it amplifies everything. I met with a naturopath who said working towards an anti-inflammatory diet and stress free lifestyle was my best bet. That little bit of information has helped me the most.
Anyway, best of luck to you. I’d be very interested to hear how your story turns out.
Neurologists have been the least helpful to me. The medical profession today is becoming more negative and selective about what they will do and show even less compassion.
Improper blood flow to the brain has a lasting impact. Chiari may not show with a great measure of the cerebellar tonsils protruding past the brain, but there can still be issues present stemming from Chiari. My cerebellar tonsils were 5 to 7mms past the skull, but the brain stem was being compromised as well.
Persistence is key in all things medical. Some neurosurgeons can and do insist that we do pain management first. Neurosurgeons get short tempered by all the numerous symptoms we have so choose symptoms that affect you most in your ability to function physically and that cause the most debilitation and pain.
Migraines unfortunately are one of those and that symptom can get you sent in the wrong direction. Loosing mobility, severe off balance, loosing strength in your limbs, your swallowing mechanism and gag reflex are weakening, you struggle with left, right coordination, and your penmanship has worsened; these name some of the symptoms other than migraine.
Cine MRIs are key and some neurologists deny that they exist. This will show any flow voids and level of constriction at the site of the Chiari Malformation and what level: I, II, III.
Persist because I struggled for 10 years and when diagnosed my family doctor played it down and I persisted through one specialist and the second neurosurgeon offered surgery right away; I was 51 years old.

I really do tolerate all <women's> screaming and grunting, and think that Sharapova and Azarenka are ok, but Sabalenka takes it to completely different level, where you really REALLY start to wonder if they should ban or disqualify players for screaming like this.
And mind you they play doubles together. Poor public.
Same. I've never been bothered by the grunting or whatever players do, I mean, I really like players like Sharapova and Azarenka and can watch most of their matches every day with no problem. I also like Sabalenka, I think she can be great, I try to watch her as much as I can and her grunting won't keep me from doing it, but I'd be lying if I say her grunting isn't a bit annoying, especially when she's clearly using it to bother her opponents.
Disagree. Either all or no one of them are OK.
They should tear players like this a new one really. They turn tennis into a joke.
Just start pinging her for hindrance.
And then she'll whine in the press conference after and to the media, who will say "hurrrrr sexist!!11"
You can't win these days.
She isn't any louder than Shriekopova tbh.
Just because Shriekopova has won more doesn't mean she should get different rules. Either You're ok with all players grunting or you're not.
They're all doing it for gamesmanship purposes. There is a "hindarnce rule" saying that a point should be replayed if "a player is hindered … by either an unintentional act of the opponent or something outside the player's own control."
This rule in theory should apply to grunting but the authorities are too scared to enforce it.
She's the loudest I've ever heard. There's another video on YT I think where it's her against Sharapova at Wimbledon. Absolute torture.

A trip to the waters has always been a privilege of the upper classes of the population. Fortunately, these days everyone can afford this luxury. Ukrainian resorts stand in line with famous European balneological resorts. The pearl of water therapy of the post-Soviet space is the resort paradise - Truskavets.
Useful mineral water "Naftusia", wonderful nature underlined by the beauty of the mountain peaks, a rich history that goes back to the Middle Ages, developed infrastructure and experienced doctors made the resort a popular place where more than 220 thousand guests come to rest and to have a treatment every year.
Vorokhta, bathing in thermal springs and dinners with the national Hutsul traditions.
In order not to spend precious time on the bustle between the pump room of mineral waters, the procedures and the rented accommodation, and then be angry with yourself for failed vacation, you must carefully consider an option of choosing hotel. Excellent services, comfortable living conditions, treatment on its own territory and a lot of additional benefits are guaranteed by the villa "Higina SPA".
On the territory of the villa there is a wide rest zone, which includes baths, cosmetic procedures, massage rooms, rooms for hydrotherapy and mud treatment. Mineral water from the pump rooms is brought directly to the hotel three times a day. So the therapist's appointments in the villa are very easy to perform. Diet meals are provided by our restaurant offering a menu for every taste and purse.

It doesn’t matter how you say it: “nonprofit” or “not for profit.” Raising money to change the world is a bumpy road today.
Raising money for your charity can feel like the impossible dream.
Donors are distracted, confused and picky.
There might have been a fairytale time for development. But it’s not now (in spite of what your Board might think).
Donors have never been tougher to reach. There’s never been more competition from other organizations trying to woo your donors. Oh, and don’t forget the explosion of strategies and tools that really just scatter everyone’s attention.
Easy answers won’t work. You know that in your heart.
Marketing that delivers for an insurance agent or body shop won’t connect with donors.
1970’s fundraising solutions don’t work. (Really 1990’s solutions don’t work).
Oh and don’t forget that every day somewhere there’s a college student starting a cause to raise money on Go Fund Me . . . and compete for your donor’s attention and support.
It’s a really hopeless situation with the tide running hard against you.
You know you’re changing the world.
And your organization does great work.
How do you compete for attention?
How can you grow your income?
How do you retain donors?
How do you find those mythical Major Donors hiding in your donor database?
Should you restart that Monthly Donor program?
Should you do a new website?
Why won’t the Board raise more money?
Hoots & Thomas Nonprofit Consulting offers you the chance to have the thinking and strategies that raise tens of millions of dollars annually for our clients.
Our advertising agency, Oneicity, provides fundraising, marketing and consulting for a variety of charities. We have a proven track record of creating revenue growth through direct mail, newspaper, television, email, websites. events and social media.
Our direct mail strategies deliver results and most importantly, donor relationships. We’ve pioneered eACQ (new donor acquisition with digital strategies) which outpaces national averages and “benchmarks” for new donor acquisition. And what’s really fun is it’s affordable and scalable for smaller organizations.
All our strategies are rooted in Donor Focused Messaging, which connects with donors at a heart level.
Whatever keeps you up at night, we’ve probably been there. We’re unique in that we’ve worked inside nonprofits before we began consulting. We’ve sat in the CEO chair and sweated making payroll. We’ve worked the frontline keeping the donors happy.
We can help. And more importantly, if we can’t we’ll know that, too.

The 2018 M&A mid-year review and outlook report highlighted that a total of 1546 deals were done in the first half of 2018. The cannabis sector, bullish with optimism over future prospects, saw 48 deals being sealed, at a total disclosed value of CA$5.2 billion.
Consolidation in the sector ensured that M&A in the Canadian healthcare industry saw strong growth in both deal value, which is up 233% over last year, and volume, also up by 48%. This stands in contrast to most other sectors, with the exception of energy and real estate, which continue to be strong.
The pending legalization of recreational cannabis for adults, on October 17 this year, has significantly impacted the sector in the first half of the year. Following the legalization of cannabis, the report stated, the deals landscape would focus on three main activities, firstly a continued consolidation of the Licensed producers (LP) landscape within Canada, as growers continue to mature their adult-use businesses.
The reduction in the number of players as expected oversupply takes its toll and forces undercapitalized players into bankruptcy, which may in-turn be an opportunity for well-capitalized companies to acquire prime assets, and an increased focus on international M&A, as LPs look to fuel further growth by tapping emerging foreign medical markets.
Despite turbulent Canada-US trade talks and uncertainty around tariffs, sound underlying market dynamics such as available capital are likely to continue to stoke strong deal activity in the second half of the year.
According to the report, Canadian companies are looking outside the country for deals. Outbound transactions from Canada into the US increased by 8% in the first six months of 2018 compared to the same period last year. There have also been 161 International non-US outbound deals with countries like Australia and the UK as Canadian dealmakers aim to diversify their portfolios due to trade uncertainty and tariff conflicts.
“The growth in international outbound deals demonstrates that Canadian businesses are performing well and will continue to pursue growth opportunities at home and abroad,” said Dave Planques, National Deals Leader, PwC Canada.

The RFS Journal Club debates the pros and cons of one of the biggest trends in health care today.
Despite the Federal Trade Commission’s anti-trust efforts, hospital consolidation continues to grow. Between 2007 and 2012, 835 hospitals were involved in 432 merger-and-acquisition deals, with another 95 occurring in 2014. Sixty percent of hospitals are now part of a larger health care system, and it is predicted that up to 20 percent of all U.S. hospitals will be involved in a merger in the next five years.
What is the driving force behind this consolidation? Is it to improve value? Improvements in value should be the aim for any change in health care. And, as we know, value can be defined as an equation in which quality is divided by costs.
In a large conglomerated health care system, quality can theoretically be increased throughout the system with standardization. Outcomes can potentially improve by concentrating patients in high-volume centers. Based off the hub-and-spoke model, community hospitals can feed into the larger tertiary center. However, improvement of quality, safety, and patient outcomes can be achieved in collaborations formed by competing hospitals without consolidation. During the latest RFS journal club, Frank J. Lexa, MD, MBA, postulated that quality is likely not the driving force behind consolidation. Instead, the push towards consolidation might be due to a perceived general economic sense that it will improve spending. However, hospital mergers may conversely result in increased prices and utilization.
This drive for consolidation is not unique to hospitals. Radiology practices also saw an accelerated tendency to get bigger through mergers and joint ventures not too long ago Dr. Lexa stated. This trend was driven by a number of factors. A large practice allows for 24/7 subspecialty coverage and freedom to pursue non-interpretive activities like teaching and other academic involvements. In addition, a larger practice will have greater influence over maintaining hospital contracts. All these factors can lead to a more stable practice.
In larger practices, standardization becomes an increasingly important factor. Specifically in radiology, standardization of imaging protocols among consolidated facilities can improve workflow and clinical processes. The overall practicality of standardization must be assessed thoroughly in each individual circumstance. Universal protocols need to take into account differences in technology, patient population, and techniques. Innate differences between outpatient imaging centers, community hospitals, and tertiary care centers can sometimes make standardization difficult and even impractical.
Whether it be a radiology practice or a community hospital, the process of consolidation can be a challenging endeavor. Subtle differences in missions can hinder a successful merger. Lexa described examples of hospital mergers that failed simply because of cultural incompatibilities. Consolidation requires close attention to differences in institutional cultures, staff personalities, and patient dynamics.
In addition to the difficulties associated with mergers, a consolidated health care system may not improve outcomes or costs at all. In fact, no studies to date have shown that mergers lower costs. Large conglomerated hospital systems without competition have the power to set prices and influence insurance reimbursement. Four studies evaluating hospital mergers demonstrated a 20 to 45 percent increase in medical prices for patients. A 2012 study of hospital mergers in California demonstrated an associated increase in utilization and a rise in inpatient mortality. Factors contributing to these unfavorable results are thought to be unique to the infrastructure of a single conglomerated health care entity. A single institution serving a large geographic area might force patients to travel farther for care, leading to more intensive procedures. In this case, utilization might paradoxically be incentivized.
A hospital that owns expensive equipment might be more likely to refer for these more costly in-system options. There can be considerable consequences when the care of a large population is solely in the hands of a single conglomerated chain of hospitals. Rather than having the broad range of services that comes along with the variability amongst individual institutions , treatment options might be limited and offered based off profitability in one colongmerated system. In addition, a single hospital system covering a large geographic area that fails financially can significantly impact that well-being of a large patient population, especially in more rural areas.
Hospital consolidation may eliminate diversity and ultimately competition. Historically, competition has been the driving force behind innovation. During the latest journal club, Lexa offered the example of Apple and Windows. Without the decades-long competition between these two Silicon Valley giants, we might not have game-changing technology, like the iPhone. The United States might never have landed on the moon without competition that drove technological innovation between the U.S. and Russia. Some studies have shown that competitive marketplaces are associated with improved quality and, in the context of health care, lower patient mortality.
As health systems seek to chart new courses, the big question remains the same: What is the overall value of consolidation? The answer is still unclear, but nevertheless there is a continued movement towards consolidation. More data needs to be collected, and organizations like the Neiman Health Institute continues to investigate.

In the last decades, the art of computer animated films is getting better and better.
Nowadays, each little detail is important.
and it was finally done right.
But in several countries, some famous scenes from different animated films look quite different from the way they look in other countries.
but people working in animated films love their work and their audience.
And sometimes change that film.
to include some important aspect of this or that culture.
So, here are five animated films that look different in other countries.
and enjoy the quality of even most insignificant details of this zoo world.
So you probably remember the news show scene.
you can see a snow leopard and a moose.
a symbol of China and the favorite animal of many Chinese people.
In Japan, the film is also changed.
a small creature similar to a raccoon, which in Japan is a symbol of happiness or prosperity.
And in Australia and New Zealand, one of the animals is a traditional koala.
Maybe in the world of Zootopia, kangaroo is not very suitable for TV programs.
but she refuses to point blank to do it.
And we probably understand why.
Kids do not love to eat healthy food.
Don't broccoli's one of the worst vegetables in the market?
Weirdly enough there is something wrong with Japanese kids because they love broccoli.
which are generally considered disgusting among Japanese children.
Understandable, given that it's very important for the kids to bond with the main character for film.
Apart from the broccoli scene, there was another change in the film.
There's a scene where Riley is watching soccer, the most popular sport in the world, but not in America.
In the U.S., soccer or football is by far not the most popular sport.
It's not Brazil, you know.
a more important sport in the states.
Buzz Lightyear gives a speech while standing in front of the stars and stripes flag of the U.S.
There was something normal, given that the film was made in America.
But in other countries, it's what would have seen a little bit weird.
That's why the filmmakers decided to change the background.
for each and every country, they put Buzz in front of the globe.
It was a simple solution to transform a patriotic speech into a universal one.
Probably one of the most difficult moments when adapting animated film to other cultures is changing the phrases that appear on screen.
it's not difficult to change the text, but there are more complicated situations.
one of the characters decorates cupcakes with the phrase "Be my pal".
and letters to write such a phrase.
But the filmmaker came up with a brilliant solution.
Instead of using letters, they just put a smiley face, and everyone's happy.
and in different countries change the look and name of one of the main female characters.
children saw a pink plane named Rochelle.
as the Russian flag, and its name is Tatiana.
And they did the same in many countries.
In Brazil, the plane's name is Carolina. She looks quite different.
And in Germany, the plane became Heidi.
Thanks for watching, please like and share the video in social networks.
And we'll be right back to you as fast as we can.

List of events regarding the satellite/operations status extracted from the SAX-SDC News.
The ESM2 commissioning activities have officially started today. The interruption of AO5 observations is scheduled for Thursday 4th 2001 at noon time. The spacecraft will then be prepared for the loading of the new control mode and for the commissioning. Scientific activities are foreseen to restart on October 30 within the ESM2 scenario, pending the reliability and robustness of the new mode. As of today no AO5 TOO requests can be accepted. Only 'fast GRB repointings' will be considered up to next Thursday.
ESM2 (gyroless) attitude control mode installation schedule After the clear signs of degradation recently shown by the last surviving BeppoSAX GYRO, ASI has decided to speed up operations to install the ESM2 'gyroless' attitude control mode. The current schedule foresees a 3 week period of operative commissioning and ground segment reconfiguration. The planned AO5 scientific activity will be interrupted at the end of the first week of October to be resumed after October 29, pending the positive conclusion of the commissioning and the reliability of the ESM2 mode.
We are finishing the analysis of the accident which caused BeppoSAX to switchover its attitude control computer in 14th April. This analysis has taken us longer than we originally estimated. The cause of the switchover was a corruption in the onboard safe mode attitude control software. We are still analyzing the cause, and the methods to better monitor the onboard software status to avoid a similar problem in the future. We intend to return to the normal scientific observation program by Thursday 29th April.
On Wednsday 14 April at 07:30 GMT we had a switchover of the attitude control computer. We are still investigating the reason prior to returning to the scientific mission plan which we expect to do next week.
Wide Field Camera 1 has returned to its normal observational activity two weeks ago (12/5/98) with its full operational and scientific performance intact. On Saturday 11th April WFC1 suddenly started to show a 3% instability on the high voltage of its position sensitive proportional counter. Immediately this was realized it was switched off. In collaboration with the personnel of SRU/SRON who constructed the WFC, the subsequent investigation showed that the high voltage was unstable even at values lower than nominal. A campaign of very small increments in voltage was started from well below the onset of the instability. This was done during the 10 minutes visibility periods in the orbits during the day when the consequences of each increment could be evaluated in real time. Occasional instability occurred but disappeared almost immediately. The last sign of instability occurred at 2960 volts from which we reached the nominal working voltage of the counter at 3727 volts with no further incident. Single orbit tests at reduced voltage were then performed without the problem returning. It was thus decided to return WFC1 to normal operation on 12/5/98. It is difficult to reach a firm conclusion about the nature of the problem. Now WFC1 has been functioning perfectly for about two weeks (or two hundred orbits) and its recovery looks permanent. We are all very content to be able to welcome WFC1 back to full participation in the BeppoSAX mission.
On Friday 12 September scientific operations have been interrupted as a consequence of an on-board data corruption in a star sensor induced by a cosmic ray. Normal operations will restart later today.
We are pleased to announce that from 9 September 1997 we are reccommencing our normal Target Of Opportunity activity. The new single gyro scientific mode software is performing very well.
The commissioning of the Single Gyro Scientific Mode software has now been succesfully completed. A first analysis of the data acquired reveals that the accuracy of the pointing is essentially the same as when three gyros where in use. Normal scientific activity has been restarted today.
The Single Gyro Scientific Mode software is now undergoing its final testing at Alenia Spazio, Turin. The commissioning of the new operational mode should commence on the satellite on Monday 28 July 1997. The commissioning is expected to take two weeks so that the normal scientific program of observations will restart by the 11th August.
On thursday, 29/05/97, gyro 2 suddenly showed a reduction in sensitivity of a factor of two (in scale factor). This situation worsened over the next two days. At this point the gyro was switched-off for safety reasons.
The loss of gyro 2 leaves us with only two healthy gyro's (no.5 and no.6)- both of which are still performing well. We would need three healthy gyro's to continue the normal scientific mission until arrival of the single gyro and gyroless on-board attitude control software, and thus until then the satellite will operate in its gyroless safe mode.
We confirm that the single gyro software should be ready by the mid of July and the gyroless version at the beginning of October. As expected, the simulations of these modes demonstrate that the characteristics of the mission will remain very similar to those up to now.
1 ) Gamma Ray Burst monitoring with the monitor (GRBM) in the phoswich detector system.
2 ) Operation of the wide field cameras (WFC) at least in the part of the orbit in sunlight where there is no danger that they could point towards the Sun or at Sco X-1 while observing.
With this plan we should at least be able to obtain the X-ray spectra of coincident bursts (seen simultaneously by the GRBM and WFC). If there are very strong known X-Ray sources in the WFC field of view the direction of the burst may be calculable. Also known x-ray source monitoring may be possible.
In the evening of Tuesday 20 May 1997 Gyro-1 caused a fallback from a scientific pointing. Analysis of its output during the next 2.5 days has shown that its parameters (scale factor and drift rate) have changed and are evolving. It is evident that this gyro is no longer useful for scientific operations. As a consequence we have put the satellite into its gyro-less safe mode, and interrupted the scientific program. This was a suffered decision as if it was at all realistic to have continued using this gyro we would have made all efforts to do so.
We are now proceeding to the introduction of gyro-2 to replace gyro-1 in prospect to a return to the normal scientific program by Wednsday 28th May.
While we are preparing to return to normal operations we are still operating the Gamma-Ray burst monitor and the two Wide Field Cameras to look for coincident events. We will not however be able to give tempestive response on direction for follow-up observations as in the gyro-less safe mode the axes of the satellite follow the Earth's magnetic field, and the Sun, when available.
In the afternoon of May 6 1997 the detector unit 1 of the MECS developed a fault. The investigation and on-board testing performed during the subsequent two days have localized the problem to the unit's gas cell high voltage supply. It is not currently possible to say if this unit can be recovered, but the investigation is still continuing. The other two detector units of the MECS (DU2 and DU3) are working normally. Normal scientific operations of the MECS using DU2 and DU3 is restarting today.
As a result of the several gyro problems which stopped the observation program from 31-Jan-1997 to 20-Feb-1997 a new series of pointing modes are in preparation. The current (nominal) pointing mode needs any three of the four gyros that are currently operational. The new modes need only one or no gyros in the control loop and are expected to retain the same scientific quality that can be achieved at present.
Normal science operations have been resumed on Feb 20 at 10:00 GMT.
On 31 January 1997 one of the BeppoSAX gyros started to become unstable. This is the second gyro since the start of the mission that has given problems. There are 6 gyros on board and three are needed to continue the normal observation program. In consequence of this event it has been decided to temporarily interrupt the observation program and to commission a new safe mode for the satellite, called the Gyro-less Safe Mode. This safe mode was succesfully implemented on-board the week starting 3rd February. It has been decided to use this mode as baseline for the future and all procedures are currently being revised. Normal science operations are expected to be resumed within a few days.
The problems encountered by the satellite on December 11 (see bullet dated Dec 17) have now been solved. Normal science operations have been resumed.
At 17:30 GMT on Wednesday 11 December the satellite suffered a reset of the Attitude Control Computer which brought BeppoSAX into a completely safe full-back mode, as forseen, stopping nominal science operations.
Our investigations have shown that there is no problem in the hardware but the reason of the reset is still under investigation and we intend to recommence our normal observation activity as soon as the reason for the reset has been understood. At this moment BeppoSAX is continuing to monitor for gamma ray bursts with the PDS and WFC are being used to monitor for transient phenomena.
Recently Beppo-SAX observations have been disturbed by an on-board contingency which has now been resolved and the normal scientific observations resumed.
On 16/10/1996 a persistent problem of syncronization between the attitude control computer and the data handling computer was detected. A software patch for the data handling computer was developed and tested to force the correct syncronization. This was sent up to the satellite on 23/10/1996. The patch was entirely successful, and after careful check-out the normal planned schedule of observation was restarted on the evening of 24/10/1996.
During contingency the observation time was not entirely lost as the NFI made background measurements and the WFC continued to monitor the Galactic Centre region and particularly GRS1915+105, the superluminal transient, which is currently active.
SAX has successfully observed the following SVP observations: Cyg Field with WFC1, Cas A, SCO X-1 and 4U1626-67 with NFI, Cen X-3 with WFC2.
The Long Term Plan for Core and Guest Observers Program targets is in preparation. This plan takes into account the new constraint on the LECS which currently is operated only when the spacecraft is above dark earth. This constraint will be relaxed somewhat in the next few weeks.
SAX has performed the first observation of a cosmic source.
On saturday 22 June Cygnus X-1, a bright blackhole candidate in our galaxy, was successfully observed with all NFI instruments and WFCs of SAX. Data analysis of this observation is in progress.
The telescopes shutters have been successfully opened on saturday, June 15. The LECS's commissioning phase is going on and will finish tomorrow. The HPGSPC's commissioning phase is scheduled for June 19 and 20.
The three MECS detectors have been swithched on at their nominal settings between June 6 and June 8th. The behaviour of all MECS instruments is nominal. Since the telescopes shutters are still closed the images obtained only include local background and calibration sources. A first M2 image is available. More detailed information is available from the MECS team pages at IFCTR.
The first SAX scientific instrument was successfully switched on. During days 29/5 - 1/6 the PDS switch-on procedure was successfully completed. This procedure was designed to switch on all the PDS subsystems, one at a time. The full switch on procedure took 22 orbits, during which the PDS was first operated at low values of HV, then at the nominal values. The PDS Particle Monitor is on since May 22. So now are already avalaible data on the particle fluxes during passages in the South Atlantic Anomaly for more than 10 days. Data are currently being analyzed. On saturday June 1st, PDS was switched on (all subsystems) for an entire SAX orbit (about 100 minutes). The measured background is consistent with the expected one. Data are being analyzed and in the next few days a first estimate of PDS background in coarse energy bands will be available. The high voltage verification activity on WFC will be performed 4-5th June.
Gyro 2 has been excluded from the attitude control loop. Gyro 2 has shown an anomalous sporadic increase of approx a factor of 2 in its drift rate. This gyro is still considered by the program to be functional but was substituted (by gyro 6) for reasons of security. The reasons of the drift are under investigation.
A problem of increased background during star search mode in the star trackers, during sunlight, has been found. A modification is being implemented in the software of the star trackers to remove the problem. HPGSPC and PDS collimators have been successfully unlocked.
Phase D3, PMT (HV) check out, of PDS commissioning starts on May 29 and is expected to finish on June 1.
The commissioning phase is proceeding regularly. The science instrumens HV will be switched on starting the beginning of June.
The electronics of all payload instruments have been swithched on in stand-by mode. The PDS particle monitor is also active providing first information on the in-orbit background.
AOCS activities revealed an increase of the gyro 2 drift. Currently gyro 2 has been replaced with gyro 4 in the attitude control loop.
All star trackers misalignments have been calibrated. The commissioning phase continues with the tuning of the AOCS system. Payload Testing is scheduled to start early next week.
The Science Pointing Mode has been tested succesfully. Gyro's calibrations is proceeding as scheduled and will be completed tomorrow. At that point phase A and phase B of the commissioning phase will be completed.
All on-board sub-systems are working properly. The commissioning phase is continuing as planned.
The satellite is in the nominal configuration, on the nominal orbit and all sub-systems are properly performing. The Operation Control activities have been dedicated to the following main items: AOCS (Attitude & Orbit Control System) initialization in Default Pointing Mode (DPM), On Board Data Handling (OBDH) sub-system commissioning start, Telemetry Tracking & Control (TT&C) sub-system start.
After the first 31 orbits all systems work properly. Later today OCC will start the calibration of magnetometers and gyroscopes.
SAX has been successfully launched on Apr 30, 04:31 GMT, right at the beginning of the launch window.

Knowing if your child has the flu can be difficult when its symptoms resemble many other illnesses. But being able to pinpoint the flu when you spot it in your kids can help you take care of them in the way that they need. By doing so, you can help prevent other, more dangerous illnesses that children are prone to when flu symptoms are left unchecked.
Here are some symptoms to watch for and steps to take when your child is infected with an influenza virus.
A sudden high fever and a child’s abrupt lack of energy are good indicators that your child may have the flu. A cold, on the other hand, generally comes more gradually. Children with cold symptoms will usually experience a runny nose and cough for about 2-3 days, and may not have a fever at all.
Your child may also feel achy or have chills if they are infected with a flu virus. Again, these signs will come suddenly and may make your child feel uncomfortable, fussy and too weak or tired to get out of bed.
Unlike adults, other common flu symptoms in children are stomach pain and vomiting. These symptoms may convince parents that their children just have a stomach ache. But if vomiting occurs alongside these other symptoms, it’s likely the flu.
Like with cold symptoms, your child may also have a sore throat and cough if they have the flu. A dry cough without much mucus can especially be a sign of the flu.
If your child is showing the above signs of the flu, what then?
The most important thing you can do is to keep your children well-hydrated and well-rested. It is also important to manage their fever. Children’s Tylenol or another acetaminophen are good fever reducers, as is children’s ibuprofen if your children are more than 6 months old.
To help prevent the flu virus from spreading, keep your kids home when flu symptoms pop up. Even after their symptoms go away, the flu virus can still be contagious, sometimes up to two weeks.
If your child’s symptoms aren’t getting any better after 3-4 days, go see a physician. The flu can be dangerous for children when it weakens their immune system and allows for more viral infections such as pneumonia. Pneumonia and this weakened immune system can make patients prone to sepsis, another dangerous condition characterized by worsened, flu-like symptoms. See your doctor if your child’s fever continues or if they are having difficulty breathing, are unresponsive or are having trouble staying hydrated.
The best way to prevent the flu in your home is for every family member to get their flu shots. Flu vaccines not only help keep your loved ones from being infected with types of the flu virus. They also help to minimize its symptoms if they are infected.
For families in St George UT, come to Callahan Clinic to get your flu shot. Our family medical practice also provides other child immunizations and preventative care to help keep your family healthy all year long. Schedule an appointment today for personalized and compassionate care from our team of family practice doctors.

“We know the administration is plagued by white supremacists whose xenophobia has infected policy at every level. But now, John Kelly has taken the liberty of rewriting the poem inscribed on the Statue of Liberty—advocating that we instead turn our back on those seeking refuge at the Southern border based on his racist stereotypes about undocumented immigrants.
John Kelly's bigotry and xenophobia should alarm all Americans who believe in fairness and our proud history of welcoming immigrants. It is this kind of intolerance that has compelled the administration to separate kids from their parents at the border and terminate TPS for hundreds of thousands of people. This level of bigotry aims to criminalize immigrants and ban people with disabilities from entering the U.S. We have lost our way and our common decency toward one another as humans. Punishing immigrants from seeking better lives can only be the work of someone who is so blinded by his hatred of people of color that he cannot even fathom the journey these families have made to keep their children safe. His comments pull another white layer off the cold-hearted racism of this administration.

The building up of the sharing economy has enabled anybody to get started on his or her own business. Maybe getting their feet wet first with Airbnb or VRBO, homeowners are seeking independence from listing sites to develop their own businesses and brands, much like a hotel. For some owners, a few vacation rental properties comprise all of one’s income. Others, however, still balance a full-time career alongside their round-the-clock enterprise of managing inquiries and reservations.
Enter Gary Beckler, who operates the Portland Piedmont Guesthouse in Portland, OR. Gary has been renting out rooms in his 1925 Craftsman Bungalow home since 2010. Not too long after this, his success with renting out single rooms inspired him to start renting out the entire property in the group market.
But Gary discovered a solution for his business. Having worked with OneRooftop since 2013, Mr. Portland upgraded his plan to full-service, thus making use of OneRooftop’s dedicated reservation specialists that provide professional inquiry management every day of the year, including holidays. When Gary receives an inquiry, OneRooftop’s reservation team will answer on his behalf to turn inquiries into bookings.
With OneRooftop’s help, Gary is able to run his vacation rental business and maintain high occupancy rates of about 50-60 bookings per year, which ranks Portland Piedmont Guesthouse in the top 5% on VRBO. Monitoring his website traffic frequently, Gary has detected that on average he gets an inquiry for every 100 page views.
OneRooftop is able to respond to these inquiries within 15 minutes and transform them into real bookings.
What does Gary have to say about this?
Gary Beckler told OneRooftop that the full-service option is about efficiency and sustaining good business. Learn more about how OneRooftop’s reservation specialists can help your vacation rental business.

Since I have been on a painting resurgence around our house for the past year or so (the kitchen, the guest and master bathrooms, wainscoting, our office, the living room accent wall, and next the guest room), I have honed in on a few must-have things that make doing it soooo much easier, particularly for our highly textured walls (which I hate).
** Affiliate links included for your convenience!
Unfortunately, it has taken me a few years and a few rooms to get this down to a science but finally I have a way that works well and makes it fast, at least for me. Some of these are just basic preferences, some are tools that make it easier. The problem I ran into was alot of the tips and tutorials online (like cutting-in) work great for the lucky ones that have smooth walls but every home I’ve been in down here, especially post 1970ish, has textured walls and it doesn’t work well at all. I have found that particularly, I can’t cut-in with a brush and I have to take measures to make sure paint gets in all the texture nooks and crannies.
So, here they are, in the midst of office painting (all dirty, when I finally realized I needed a picture for this :/).
This is by far the biggest game-changer for me. If I weren’t married I would marry a ShurLine. This little dude is the cutter-inner for textured walls. As long as you keep his tabs and wheels clean and do a couple of passes back and forth, you get a straight-as-it-can-get edge and don’t have to come touch up texture that doesn’t get filled. It is soooo much faster not trying to cut-in around doors and baseboards anymore and it is easy to clean cause it has disposable pads (that get wrapped in the bag dog-poo style, remember?) Icing on the cake is it’s only $5!! But, I have tried a knockoff of this that was horrible, it didn’t have the little guard tabs that lifted up, just the pad. So stick to the actual ShurLine, and get the one that has the black tabs that lift up (not the one without them), for shur.
So this is probably a no-brainer for everyone and is pretty silly to put on a feature but switching from a plastic sheeting to a real canvas drop cloth has saved my sanity while painting. I, once again, would grab the cheapy $1 plastic drop sheeting to use. It seemed good at first, but after the first stepped-in drop of paint I would go psycho fighting the stupid plastic stuck all over my feet the rest of the day, usually ending up being stuck to the painted wall as well somehow. Makes me freak out just thinking of that stuff. I finally got the “fancy” canvas drop cloth and am calm once again. It’s not like they are way more expensive or anything, maybe $15? But they keep their shape, slide around with you, don’t stick to you, and are reusable. I use mine under everything. It’s kind of like a cookbook, the more crap that’s on it means how good it is.
Found you through Oak and Oats! I love all the updates you have done in your pretty home! I totally would have done the same thing with the paint samples – so glad the second coat covered them up!
Hi Elise, thanks for visiting! Love Oak and Oats :) Man, yes, these guys were hard! First to try and make a decision among them, then the freak out of them showing through, ugh!!!
Great tips! We’re actually texturing some walls today in our home but thankfully we don’t have to do around the baseboards or ceiling but good to know about shurline edger for the future. Thanks for sharing at our Motivational Monday party! Be sure to stop by again tomorrow to link up another post.

CBC News Montreal’s Andrew Chang is off to new adventures within the CBC, and will no longer be in the anchor’s chair on the supper hour news in Montreal.
His new assignment will be announced later this summer.
Chang first started working at the CBC in Montreal 10 years ago as an intern.
He moved on to report for television, radio and online. Chang worked as a video-journalist before co-hosting CBC News Montreal for five years.
From the host's chair, he brought viewers two provincial elections and filled in on News Network and The National. Earlier this year he was in Sochi hosting the Winter Olympics overnight show.
Debra Arbec will continue to host CBC News Montreal at 5, 5:30 and 6. Arbec has been covering daily local news in Montreal for 25 years.
I can't help but look back at the last decade and wonder ... where would I be without you, Montreal?
You taught me the ropes — you even taught me French! — and you gave me 10 years of unforgettable experiences.
I still remember sheepishly approaching Saku Koivu in the Habs' locker room for an interview. Or being among the first to try La Ronde's Goliath with a camera capturing my every blood-curdling scream. I also remember reporting live from the scene at Dawson College, the day Anastasia De Sousa died. I was there, too, when the de la Concorde overpass collapsed in Laval, killing five people.
From the Jazz Festival, to Cirque du Soleil, to not one, not two, not three, but four provincial elections (which, quite honestly, can sometimes feel like a circus), I feel like I've had a front row seat for all of it.
In exchange, I hope I've done my part in helping you understand how fantastically diverse, complex, beautiful, and interesting this city truly is.
And so, as I prepare for a change in scenery, I also ask you to wish me luck. After all, it's not just a new job I have ahead of me.
My wife and I are expecting our first. A little girl.

Each day thousands of forced migrants flood into Johannesburg in search of a better life. Many have risked their lives to cross South Africa’s borders, and in their desperation resort to the only accommodation they can afford: the slum buildings of the inner city of Johannesburg.
The slum buildings are vertical squatter camps – far more dangerous, far more over crowded, where the fight for survival is brutal and unrelenting. Many of the buildings are hijacked, some are run by slum lords who demand rent from tenants, despite there being no water or electricity in the buildings.
A pursuit into the underworld of the inner city of Johannesburg.
Many of those who cross South Africa’s borders enter the country illegally, carrying the little they own, and often without any form of documentation. They fear deportation and police brutality, and many speak of corrupt home-affairs officials to whom they must pay bribes to apply for asylum or refugee status. They therefore choose to become “invisible”, and are vulnerable to abuse, violence and discrimination.

Unsurprisingly this is our wine of the vintage and one of the finest two or three wines we’ve ever bottled (I suspect the finest, but it’s a bit early for such pronouncements). There is a level of complexity, integration and effortless harmony present that is often declared but rarely truly found. It’s undeniably a powerful mouthful of Russian River Pinot Noir but it never strays to the overdone or awkward, remaining subtle, elegant and restrained at all times. There’s a good deal of concentration and volume to the wine and the mid palate really expands and flows but there’s always acidity and tannin present to rein it in and provide clarity and authority of flavor. It’s the level of aromatic complexity that really drives the wine, providing its thrust and persistence, so that you always feel there’s more coming – another level of complexity and volume. And it’s the combination of these multiple non-fruit aromatic nuances – game, leather, lavender, nutmeg, juniper, pepper, menthol, dried herb – that add all the detail and extra dimension. It’s most similar to our 2002 Finn bottling which has become majestic in its maturity and I would anticipate this bottling to age gracefully for at least a decade. As with all great wines, there’s a naturally limited supply, so carefully select the occasion to open this treasure.
Medium dark ruby red; Full spectrum of red and black fruits: bright raspberry and fresh cherry then blackcurrant with stony minerals, game, leather and orange zest lift. On the palate: strawberry and blackcurrant preserves, sweet sassafras, aromatic herb nuances, black raspberry, bay leaf and cocoa. Rising inner mouth perfuminess. Perfectly round supple and pliant tannins, great swirling complexity and building acidity to finish. Drink between 2012 and 2022.

heirloom tomato and celery salad.
The first of summer's tomatoes have arrived at the markets. Green Market stalls are filled with piles of gorgeous and unusually shaped heirlooms in purples, stripes, blacks, whites, deep reds, orange and yellows. I love the wabi sabi-ness of heirloom tomatoes. I particularly like the ones that look as though they have been carelessly stitched and scratched like a beautiful Lousie Bourgeois sculpture.
Tomatoes are one of those foods that are in my blood. If I were on a deserted island I could get by if I had stockpiles of my great grandmothers marinara sauce. When I think about the things I love to eat most... they almost always involve this diverse fruit! Foccacia with cherry tomatoes sunk deep into little wells of crunchy bread and pools of olive oil...marinara with a punch of garlic and hint of basil, Panzanella a delicious bread salad, a BLT with a thick chunky slice of a fresh garden tomato, tomato soup and grilled cheese, the ultimate in comfort food or a very simple summer salad of tomato and basil, olive oil and a little sea salt or in this case some crisp shaved celery. Just give me a piece of crusty Italian bread to soak up that juice and I will be in heaven!
This is sort of a non-recipe. It is just an inspiration! As with most summer salads they just kind of get thrown together!
As simple as that and DO NOT forget some crusty bread lest you waste that amazing tomato juice!

Oscar-nominated directing duo Adam Foulkes and Alan Smith (Smith & Foulkes) have found a new medium to showcase their work—a storybook app, which you can now download.
The graphic novel-style animated storybook is called Radio Jones and His Robot Dad and is about a boy whose absent father forces him to make a robot parent instead. The app was also created by the directing pair’s long-time collaborator Chris O’Reilly, and is now being developed as a feature film.
Smith & Foulkes were nominated for their short film This Way Up and have numerous television commercials, film, and title sequences, and other projects to their name, including the hugely popular animated Honda “Grr” advertisement from 2004. They are also founding directors at Nexus Studios, which produced Radio Jones and His Robot Dad.
Cartoon Brew asked Smith & Foulkes about what made working on a storybook different from their usual animated fare, and how they developed the app.
Cartoon Brew: How is directing for a storybook app different from directing a commercial or short film or other animated work? What does this medium let you do that perhaps others can’t?
Smith & Foulkes: This really was a journey into the unknown for us. We’re used to telling stories in a linear way where the viewer sits back and watches the film unfold before them. But telling the story as an app required a very different approach. We had to re-think our process, particularly in how we show the more dramatic and emotional scenes, and find the balance with how the interactivity suited the different parts of the story.
A page from the storybook app.
We researched a lot of story apps and they seemed to fall into two categories. Either the narrative flow was frequently interrupted by such things as a coloring-in game that tended to distract you from the story, or they were essentially a short film broken up into sections that required the viewer only to click to move the story forward. We wanted to try something a bit different.
Initially we tried putting interactive animations in randomly but this began to feel a little frustrating for the reader, never knowing quite what to see and what you’ve missed. So we devised some rules that would make it more cohesive. Every page would have a short animated ‘scene-setting’ animation in the first panel, but would essentially remain as a graphic novel. Then within the page other animated features are there to be discovered – with hints – if the reader is interested.
It was important that these were not critical to the story so if you don’t discover them all you still know what’s going on. They are there so that the reader can share in some of Radio’s adventures, such as rope-swinging across the lake, firing water pistols at each other or shouting things that echo. In this way the app format allows the reader to control how they experience the story, rather than be told it. We could also add details such as the clock where you can see what dull office chore Dad is doing while Radio is out having fun, which wouldn’t have worked as well in a linear film.
This was very much an interactive experiment for us, one in which we tried to slightly reinvent the currently revered ‘rules of user interactivity’ that can be quite limiting to creative storytelling. People might enjoy seeing things slightly differently, or they might get confused and frustrated. I guess our motto is, ‘you never know until you try!’ But we always tried to keep in mind that at its heart this is a story rather than a game or a technical exercise.
Can you talk about the idea behind Radio Jones and His Robot Dad? Where would you like to continue to take the story?
Smith & Foulkes: Firstly, we just loved the idea of a boy and a robot having a crazy adventure together in the wild. But we wanted to bring an emotional thread to the story whereby the robot was a direct substitution for a father, so that we could play with the often conflicting themes of fun and responsibility that naturally occur in any father/son relationship.
The app was a perfect opportunity to establish the bond between Radio and Robot Dad but we want to take the story much further: how a boy learns both the exhilaration and the pitfalls of his newfound independence, a robot becomes ever more self-aware of the exciting possibilities offered up by the world around him, and a redemptive father is forced to battle his unruly robotic doppelgänger. A feature-length script is currently in development.
What were some of the tools and techniques used to bring the storyback app to life, in terms of concepts through to final animation?
Smith & Foulkes: One major advantage of the graphic novel structure is that you can basically create an elaborate storyboard, stick it to the wall and there, essentially, is your finished piece! All you then have to do is spend months and months coloring it in. We worked in collaboration with the illustrator Dan Burgess to develop each page. He brought a wonderfully nostalgic palette that reflected the Boys Own [a now-defunct magazine for pre-teen/teenage boys] nature of the story. From this we could then plot exactly where each user interaction could be and proceed into the animation and coding stage.
Alax Baranowski, from music production company Siren, had the tricky task of composing a musical score that could be endlessly repeated yet change at any moment depending on where you are in the story. He managed to create a beautifully analog atmosphere to act as a contrast to the digital nature of the project. We then worked closely with Anthony Moore at Factory to create a bed of sound effects that could occasionally fill in the gaps of the story that we couldn’t animate. So, even if you don’t actually see a car drive away, you hear and feel the emotional quiet left behind.
Radio Jones and His Robot Dad can currently be downloaded at no cost for the Apple iPad here.

Reduce the oven temperature to Gas Mark 3 or 160°C.
For the filling: Scoop the pumpkin flesh into a large bowl and use a potato masher to mash it until smooth.
Put egg yolks into a bowl with sugar and whisk until foamy. Whisk in the cream, maple syrup, spices and vanilla. Whisk this mixture into the pumpkin.
Spoon the filling into the pastry case and bake for 1 hour until the filling is firm.
For the topping: Put maple syrup into a pan with pecans. Warm through, then arrange pecans on pie. Pour syrup over and return to oven for 10 minutes.
Take the pie out of the oven, leave to cool, and chill. Dust with icing sugar, if liked.

Katie Summerhayes was born and brought up in Sheffield; she recalls her first introduction to her childhood idol with a lot of embarrassment during the summer of 2012. She had just turned 16 and had visited the English Institute of Sports at Sheffield for the school sports day; it was then that Jessica Ennis Hill was preparing for the Olympics to be held at London. It was just the torch relay that Summerhayes had a chance to run for due to her potential; it was her Olympic connection that the teachers had pushed her to the front row and introduce herself to the poster girl of London 2012.
Summerhayes is supposed to share a similar pedestal at the (Rosa Khutor Extreme Park) with her childhood idol is she succeeds in living up to her potential in the ski slope-style competition; it’s probably a nice opportunity for her fans to see the Olympic medal around her neck.
Just a month ahead, she had been to Russia following her Gstaad World Cup triumph, even through she’d just 18 years old. It took 19 years for a British woman to win a World Cup skiing medal in Summerhayes; she truly lived up to her reputation earned during the previous season when she performed at the Swiss resort of Silvaplana.
In the face of adversities and a series of injuries there’s this story of courage and determination lying between the two outcomes. It has a close resemblance with the comeback of Ennis Hill, wherein the champion overcame stress fractures that threatened her career; Ennis also depicted enormous courage to live through the challenges and get crowned as the Olympic Heptathlon champion.
Summerhayes had to experience rehabilitation for nine months after she used one of the hamstrings to undergo a reconstructive surgery; it was only after this that she was able to get back to the slopes at the beginning of 2013. Her position was consolidated yet again once she stood fourth at the World championships and obtained a major breakthrough at the World Cup.
Summerhayes had a tough time when she had to rest for a minimum of six months following a failure of her initial operation; she was shocked when her medical specialist had shared the possibility of another surgery using the other hamstring belonging to the other leg; she only had about nine months to prepare for the Sochi Olympics. Her coach Pat Sharples never got disheartened and encouraged her through the rough patches.
Attending the Bath conference in August was a turning point that she keeps recalling very often. Just about a month back Summerhayes had returned to Colorado for competing at a World Cup event completing her stay in the weights room within Sheffield Hallam University and Bisham Abbey. She was thankful to be on her skis again, although she didn’t succeed with her latest runs.
The Gstaad competition took place soon after her remarkable recovery; she acquired the second position behind Lisa Zimmerman of Germany and bagged the World Cup silver. It was just her second competition, and a real morale booster for her. She was indeed very happy to have proven her worth to herself.
A dry slope was all that introduced Katie Summerhayes to this sport like her fellow team member Jenny Jones. She was only six years old when she first wore her pair of skis in the Sheffield Ski Village. This was the same slope wherein James Woods, her GB teammate grew up to become a powerful contender for the ski slope-style medal for men. Will the Sheffield residents see another ski village coming up following the triumph of Summerhayes. These games are often about the legacy that you carry.

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina is a small city of approximately 80,000 people called Asheville that can boast 9 breweries and more planned to come on-stream in the coming years. Asheville won the Beer City USA poll outright in 2010 and 2011 and after a number of recommendations from friends and fellow Craft Beer enthusiasts we thought it was time for Beer Infinity to pay this small town in the far west of North Carolina a visit.
* designates our favourite(s) from the above sampler.
The range of beers is very sessionable with the Fire Escape ESP being particularly unusual in that Jalapenos are added to the secondary which not only gives this beer a strong chilli aroma but also lights a fire in your throat when you take a sip. Apparently it is very popular with the locals but for us overpowers the underlying beer style.
The Belgian IPA was definitely our favourite beer at Hi-Wire with a nice balance between maltiness, hop bittering, flavor & aroma, as well as the esters from the Belgian yeast.
Our next stop was a short 5-10 minute walk to Burial Beer Company who we were amazed to find out had only just opened during June 2013 – a mere 6-7 weeks earlier! This brewery has a nano setup and are currently open Thursday, Friday & Saturday for tastings and have both an indoor tasting room plus an outdoor area. Tim, who is one of the owners, explained that he had been a west coast brewer and was attracted to Asheville due to the buoyant Craft Beer scene and abundance of breweries.
* designates our favorite beer(s) in the sampler.
Burial’s beers are definitely strong in alcohol with good size sampler glasses. In the tasting room there is a blackboard with the upcoming brew schedule so lookout for a changing lineup in the coming weeks and months.
Asheville has a number of breweries as already mentioned but in addition to these there are also a wide variety of Craft Beer bars so to end our first day we visited Barley’s Taproom. Here we enjoyed two samplers in the downstairs bar but there is also a second bar upstairs. Their selection of beers includes a number of local and regional craft beers as well as some national ones.
We had no clear favorite in the first sampler.
