It's where the ideas took root and the adventure began… Verana is the place that started it all, and launched what would ultimately become Boutique Homes.
Cited by Vogue as "One of 7 Under-the-Radar Boutique Hotels to Know", the hotel's draw is its unique take on simple luxury among the breathtaking scenery.
One of a handful of its unique dwellings peeking out from the canopy, these leggy, inverted houses are an inspired and stylish take on the modern cabin and an ingenious solution to jungle living. Facing the Bay of Banderas with private treetop views from elevated walkways and outdoor living spaces the V Houses serve as your private, open-air nest.
Hand-built and carved out of the lush Mexican jungle by Boutique Homes founders Heinz Legler and Veronique Lievre, the hotel is remote and secluded, but still offers all of the comforts for a relaxing and totally unique getaway.
The hotel is accessible only by boat from the mainland, and what it takes to get there (arriving quite stylishly on a mule from the shore!) is nothing compared to what you'll experience when you arrive.
Originally intended as a single house, the project grew from the couple's deep appreciation of nature – from images and ideas, and a passion for design and adventure. A wonder of environmental engineering and sheer human grit, the untouched jungle site was carefully shaped and meticulously designed using local materials sourced from the land. It evolved over time into an earthy and stylish compound of nine individual houses, a spa, and a restaurant/bar that serves the freshest of locally sourced ingredients. Each house was designed with its own character and feel to blend with the environment, and each includes its own private outdoor space.
Designed as a stylish and quirky approach to modern jungle living, each of the three en suite V Houses can accommodate up to two guests with access to the hotel's pool, spa and restaurant.
A special place of spectacular natural beauty, Verana transports you to a private oasis of imagination, artistry and style.
Looking for a place to celebrate, check out Events at Verana.
I am booked to stay at this neat getaway this winter and I would just like to say that so far the booking has been super easy, the staff is very helpful, and the owners of the home answer inquiries very promptly. So excited, thanks!!
Stayed in the V house for five days in January for a dear friends 50th Birthday. Heaven on earth!

Sporting Blood is a 1931 American MGM sports drama film directed by Charles Brabin. The film stars Clark Gable (in his first starring role), Ernest Torrence, and Madge Evans. Two other pictures bore this same title, one released in 1916 by Fox and another by MGM in Sporting Blood (1940). Although they, too, centered on horse racing, none of the plots had any direct connection with the others.
Gambler Rid Riddell (Clark Gable) works for Tip Scanlon (Lew Cody), a crooked gambler, who buys Tommy-Boy, a racehorse from a wealthy man (Hallam Cooley) whose spoiled wife (Marie Prevost) loses interest. Tip and Rid consistently win with the horse in both honestly and dishonestly run races. But before long, Tommy Boy loses a race he wasn't supposed to, and the mob is after Tip.
Tip is murdered but not before giving Tommy Boy to his girlfriend (Madge Evans) who sets out to rehabilitate herself and the horse. The horse rebounds. After an attempt at sabotage, the horse wins the Kentucky Derby, and Rid wins the girl.

Firms from USA, Germany, China have submitted proposals for Western rail line – Minister
Tue, 8 Aug 2017 Source: 3 News
The Minister for Railways Development, Joe Ghartey, has assured that before the end of President Akufo-Addo's mandate in 2020, the rehabilitation and construction of the Western rail line would be completed.
This, according to the Essikado-Ketan MP, is in fulfilment of the pledge made by President Akufo-Addo and captured in the New Patriotic Party's manifesto of 2016.
The Minister for Railways Development revealed that over 200 companies so far, from countries like the United States of America, Switzerland, Germany, China and Ghana have shown interest in the development of Ghana's railways, and have submitted proposals to this effect.
The selection of the companies who will undertake the rehabilitation and construction of the Western rail line, Mr Ghartey added, will be done in accordance with the tenets of competitive bidding to ensure value-for-money.
"We have already started the design of the Western Rail line from Kojokrom to Tarkwa. The transportation of bauxite from Awaso has been incorporated into the design," he added.
Joe Ghartey made this known on Monday, August 7, when he addressed a durbar of Chiefs and people at Bibiani held in honour of the President of the Republic, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, at the commencement of his 3-day tour of the Western Region.
The Minister for Railways noted that one of the tragedies of Ghana's post-colonial development was the neglect of the country's railways.
"One of the things our country should have focused on was the development of its railway. Railways bring jobs, development, and uplifts communities. Ghana's railway system has collapsed," he said.
The Minister continued, "President Akufo-Addo, through the establishment of the Ministry of Railways Development, has indicated that he wants to revive the railway sector and has put persons from the Western Region to take charge of it. We will not disappoint. We will surely deliver".
It will be recalled that in the 2016 Manifesto of the NPP, the party pledged to "develop a modern railway network with strong economic linkages. The Western and Eastern Lines will be completely overhauled. This will facilitate the haulage of bauxite, manganese, cocoa, cement, iron ore and other bulk commodities as well as the transportation of people."

THE GUARDIAN: FREE STREAMING IS 'KILLING MUSIC INDUSTRY': MINISTRY BOSS
If Ministry of Sound boss Lohan Presencer had his way, there would be no free option for streaming music services such as Spotify, Deezer and Rdio - or YouTube for that matter.
Despite having settled his company's lawsuit with Spotify over playlist copyright infringement, Presencer remains a combative opponent of free streaming services – a point he made forcefully during a recent debate panel at The MMIX (Mobile. Music. Innovation. eXperience) event at Mobile World Congress Barcelona, with representatives from Deezer and Rdio.
"My beef continually over the last few years has been with the free aspect, the freemium model. I just can't see how that is sustainable or supportable. The argument goes that by making a free ad-funded service available, you give the pirates an alternative. I just don't buy it," said Presencer.
"I think what you do is you take casual consumers of music and you turn them from purchasers into noshers, into browsers, into snackers. They don't have to engage in the subscription model. The reality of some of the bigger streaming services is that 75% of their user base are free, which has a horrific impact on the music industry and its ability to invest in talent going forward."
Presencer also attacked streaming services for being beholden to their investors rather than musicians and rights holders.
"Your objective is to grow your user base, to tell a story such that you can IPO or you can sell, and you can exit, and you can put money back in the pockets of your investors. You are not the ones who are investing in developing talent. You are not the ones who are signing artists," he said.
"And our artists and investment – our creative community – is contracting daily, as a result of the free services that are out there and giving music away, with the objective of you achieving some sort of exit at the end."
Presencer's criticism came at a time when the viability of free, on-demand streaming services is under increasing scrutiny within the music industry. Lucian Grainge, head of the largest major label Universal Music, said recently that this model "is not something that is particularly sustainable in the long-term".
Deezer's Europe vice-president Gerrit Schumann and Rdio's head of business development Chris Burton made their cases for the defence.
"I'm not going after people who are willing to pay today, and I'm gonna stop them from paying. That's not our intention. We're looking at a new way of consuming music, and obviously I have to get people excited about a new product," said Schumann during the MWC panel.
"A lot of people are not willing to pay for music, but they're engaged with it, and that's the first point. We see a lot of people coming to us who don't buy CDs any more. They haven't for about 20 years. But now, they go in the freemium funnel, or they get a free trial. It's easy, it's on mobile, and they start paying for music again. It's that simple."
Meanwhile, Burton warned that Rdio spent four years as a subscription-only service finding it "very difficult" to persuade people to sign up. He said that if the music industry turned away from freemium it would be "extremely difficult" to keep increasing revenues.
Unrest over free streaming was at the heart of Spotify's dispute with Taylor Swift in 2014, when she pulled her music off the service in protest at the company's refusal to allow her to make it available only to paying
Spotify chief executive Daniel Ek wrote in a blog post at the time that its free tier had been a crucial factor in his company's $2bn of royalty payments to music rightsholders. "More than 80% of our subscribers started as free users. If you take away only one thing, it should be this: No free, no paid, no $2bn," wrote Ek.
Presencer's ears remain deaf to such an argument. "We need to switch off free across the board. We need to switch off free … and we need to come up with clever alternative payment mechanisms that allow people to snack, that allow them to pay as they go, that allow them to pay through micro-payments," he said at MWC.
"The reality is that on-demand music is a consumption medium, and giving it away for free just kills the industry."
And YouTube? Presencer wants the music industry to exert more pressure on that service too. "YouTube has been the elephant in the room for many years. As an industry we openly, and somewhat naively, embraced it and Vevo as promotional platforms," he said after the event.
"Clearly when content is available on demand that shifts from promotion to consumption. For a whole generation that has grown up with YouTube, it's the primary destination for listening to music. No strategy for addressing the pernicious nature of legal free music is complete without putting YouTube behind some sort of pay mechanic. I fear it may be too late, but as an industry we owe it to ourselves to try."

There's only one problem with being the best: topping yourself. For Lil Wayne, whose last release ( Tha Carter III) was the best-selling album of 2008 and who has been proclaimed the best rapper alive by most of the music critics and publications that matter, it's a pressing concern (though possibly not quite as pressing as his impending prison sentence for illegal weapons possession).
Wayne's tactical decision? Make a rock album.
Our verdict? The rapper's long-delayed effort proves that variety isn't always the spice of life. And that you can change your sound, but you probably can't change your tune.
The intentionally misspelled "Paradice" comments on the vanity of chasing fame ("She finally made all her dreams come true and then she screamed/'This ain't paradise'"). The song also mentions prayer and repentance ("Sometimes we try to find a road to the riches/Need roadside assistance/Blisters on my knees from beggin' for forgiveness"). Prayer pops up on "Ground Zero" as well ("How can I pray when I got nothin' to kneel on?"). "Runnin" expresses a desire for direction amid confusion ("I lost all my money/I lost half my mind/Can't find my direction/Where's the finish line?"). "Prom Queen" critiques a popular girl's failure to find someone who'll actually love her ("She didn't realize she chased the type of guys/That don't believe in ties").
Where to start? Eenie meenie miney mo. OK. Profanity. Pick a bad word, and it's probably in here—especially the f-word and its twisted variants, which make dozens of appearances, frequently in sexual contexts.
Sex. "Hey, Barbie," Lil Wayne raps in "Knockout," "Are you into black men?/Hey, Barbie, I can be your black Ken." Things go unprintably downhill from there in that song and others ("American Star," "The Price is Wrong," "On Fire," "Da Da Da," "One Way Trip") as Wayne graphically tangles with oral sex and anal sex, threesomes, and the male and female anatomy.
Drugs? Yep. References to crack and marijuana. On one incoherent track, "Ground Zero," lines about getting high read, "I'm so high that the ground is gone," and then Wayne chants, "Jump, jump out a window/Let's, let's, let's jump off a building, baby/Let's jump, jump out a window." The song refers to planes crashing, and you might decide it's about 9/11—if you can sort through the incoherent ramblings about sex, getting high, jumping and floating.
And violence. "American Star" shows a man who's proud of his hometown's violent reputation ("Born and raised in the USA/By way of New Orleans, where the killas stay") and who thinks little of the government ("Where the government's watchin' what you do and say"). On " Drop the World," guest rapper Eminem delivers trademark threats to critics ("That pillow is where your head'll lie/Permanently, b‑‑ch, it's beddie-bye").
The most entertaining thing about Rebirth has nothing to do with actually listening to Dwayne Carter's foul flounderings . Instead, it's reading the reviews, which have plumbed the outer limits of the English language as a vehicle for hyperbolic derision.
"Rebirth is—without qualification—the most embarrassing album of the last 10 years. Embarrassing for him, for his audience, for rap, for humanity," wrote Joshua Errett of the Canadian music magazine NOW. Sam Wolfson of Britain's New Music Express adds, "Rebirth [is] a shlock-rock record so absurd it makes Alien Ant Farm seem like a legitimate musical venture."
Perhaps the best way to conclude this review, however, is with Wayne's own words. On "One Way Trip" he sings, "I'm very sick, very sicker than you."
RockRap/Hip-Hop
Rebirth debuted at No. 2 with first-week sales of 176,000 units.

The Irish Times on immigration and the 'joyous explosion of languages'
Fintan O'Toole wrote a really good piece on the Irish Times (November 26th, 2019), describing the 'Babel of languages' in Scoil Bhríde (Cailíní), Blanchardstown as what is 'really on the ground of contemporary Ireland'.
Engaging with Linguistic Diversity. A Study of Educational Inclusion in an Irish Primary School
A study of educational inclusion in an Irish primary school by Déirdre Kirwan and David Little
Engaging with Linguistic Diversity describes an innovative and highly successful approach to inclusive plurilingual education at primary level. The approach was developed by Scoil Bhríde (Cailíní), Blanchardstown, as a way of converting extreme linguistic diversity – more than 50 home languages in a school of 320 pupils – into educational capital. The central feature of the approach is the inclusion of home languages in classroom communication. The benefits, which accrue to pupils from native Irish as well as immigrant families, include: an unusually sophisticated degree of language awareness; high levels of age-appropriate literacy in English, Irish, French and home languages; and from an early age, the motivation and capacity to undertake ambitious autonomous learning projects.
After describing the national context, the book traces the development of Scoil Bhríde's response to an increasingly diverse pupil cohort and goes on to explore in detail the impact of the response on classroom discourse, pupils' literacy development, and their capacity for autonomous learning. The authors illustrate their arguments with a wealth of practical evidence drawn from a variety of sources; pupils' and teachers' voices are especially prominent. Bearing in mind that Scoil Bhríde developed its approach without access to special funding or resources, the concluding chapter considers issues of sustainability and replication and the implications of the approach for teacher education.
The book makes sustained reference to a wide range of relevant research findings and theories, including translanguaging, plurilingual and intercultural education, language awareness and language learner autonomy. It is essential reading for researchers and policy- makers in the field of linguistically inclusive education.
David Little was formerly Director of the Centre for Language and Communication Studies and Head of the School of Linguistic, Speech and Communication Sciences at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. For the past ten years, he has played a leading role in the Council of Europe's work on the language education of migrants.
Déirdre Kirwan was principal of Scoil Bhríde (Cailíní), Blanchardstown, Ireland, from 1987 to 2015. In 2008 she was nominated European Ambassador for Languages (Léargas) for her active promotion of cultural and linguistic diversity in the school, and in 2009 she received her PhD from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, for her research in this area.
Invitation to "University of Tomorrow and la Francophonie" - October 11th
On the 11th of October 2019, Ireland will celebrate their first anniversary as an observatory member of the Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF). On this occasion, the Embassy of France in Ireland, the Irish University Association, the Agence Universitaire de la Francophonie and Trinity College Dublin would like to invite you to "University of Tomorrow and la Francophonie: networking on shared values and objectives", in order to discuss ways in which la Francophonie can play a part in Irish HEI's international strategy and future network developments.

"Publication of " Engaging with Linguistic Diversity A Study of Educational Inclusion in an Irish Primary School
Congratulations to Dr Déirdre Kirwan for her ground-breaking book "Engaging with Linguistic Diversity. A Study of Educational Inclusion in an Irish Primary School", co-authored with Dr David Little.
The volume, published by Bloomsbury Academic, in the series Multilingualisms and Diversities in Education, describes the innovative and highly successful approach to inclusive plurilingual education adopted in Scoil Bhríde (Cailíní), Blanchardstown. The experience, born out of the Irish context, is framed in educational theories and presented as a great example of plurilingual and multicultural education that can be replicated in other contexts.

Satellite Radio Retail A Mixed Bag For April
May 22, 2008 (11:33 am) By Spencer Osborne
Satellite radio retail sales are an aspect of the sector that has been perceived weak for quite some. In fact, through the first quarter of 2008, the retail channel for satellite radio is negative 49,000 units on a net basis (after churn is considered). NPD, a company that tracks retail sales at participating retailers has been a barometer of sorts for retail activity for quite some time.
According to NPD, the retail channel in SDARS for April of 2008 was a mixed bag. On one hand, Sirius got a positive year over year comparison for the first time since August of 2006. On the other, XM's sales were still down on a year over year basis. According to NPD, Sirius sales were about 3% better in April of 2008 than they were in April of 2007. Sirius also captured 69% of the satellite radio sales for the month. For XM, the April 2008 performance was down by about 37% when compared to last year. As a whole, the sector sales were down 13%.
The trend, which was improving on an overall satellite radio basis dipped slightly this month. Last month, the dip was 11% and this month the dip was 13%. For Sirius the shift was into positive territory going from a negative 3% last month to a positive 3% this month. For XM it was more dramatic. Last month XM's NPD sales were off by 22% while this month that figure was 37%.
This new data represents 32 consecutive months that Sirius has garnered a larger NPD share than XM.

Identify and Eliminate Friction in Employees' Working Days to Drive Employee Success
Posted by: Pete Summers
Hybrid working promises employees the flexibility and improved work-life balance they have always craved. They can start later, or finish earlier. Spend more time with their children, or hit the gym in the middle of the day. As hybrid working becomes the norm, businesses are realizing that the digital experience is equally becoming a key part of employees' day to day lives and can seriously impact how much they enjoy their jobs.
There are many points of digital friction that can disrupt successful workflows. No doubt many of us have fallen victim to non-performant applications making us late to meetings, faulty laptops causing frustration, or simply not knowing how to use the latest version of available software.
If such issues continue going unchecked, workers could be held back from doing their jobs effectively, impacting business success and even preventing tech-savvy recruits from joining the workforce.
What does this mean for businesses in reality?
We all know 'The Great Resignation' is underway, and organizations need to do everything they can to hold on to their talent. It's concerning then that our research found that 30% of hybrid employees said a poor digital experience had made them want to leave a job or had contributed to them leaving a job.
Technology is also essential for attracting new talent. 'Gen Z' are now entering the workforce, and research shows that 80% of this generation want to work with 'cutting-edge tech.' It's clear that nailing the digital experience needs to be a major priority for employers to satisfy their current and future employees.
Aside from making employees frustrated, digital friction has an impact on their workflows. For example, at one organization we work with, we found their finance teams were using a spreadsheet for calculations that weren't provided by the in-house system. This meant employees were having to spend a couple of minutes switching out of the system, completing the spreadsheet, and then switching back to the main system.
Typically, each individual was doing this multiple times a day, adding up to a significant amount of wasted time per week for the organization's many thousands of frontline workers. In this situation, a relatively minor change – incorporating the necessary calculations into the main system – eliminated the need to switch over, saving time and many thousands of dollars.
Actionable insights and proactive change
Spotting the kinds of inefficient IT processes in the example above can improve productivity and save costs, but with a distributed workforce, it's much more challenging to identify them.
Simply asking employees for their feedback is no longer the most effective way of uncovering inefficient workflows. This is because often users have been doing a process for so long that it has become semi-automatic – they don't even think of it as inefficient anymore.
To truly combat digital friction, organizations need a centralized workforce analytics platform that can proactively evaluate the user journey in detail to reveal and eliminate points of friction.
Enter Scalable Software's workplace analytics platform, Acumen. It provides IT teams with actionable insights into end-users' experience, as well as the technologies they use to get work done. For example:
Hardware Utilization: Determine performance of the organization's end-user hardware estate and identify any potential impact on user experience or productivity
Application stability: Determine the stability of the organization's end-user applications and identify any potential impact on user experience or productivity due to faults, e.g. software crash data
Software usage and deployment: Track usage of specific software products and if users are missing out on functionality because they are running an old version
Businesses are starting to realize that as employees, we're all more productive (and less frustrated) when we're working with systems and technologies that are powerful, easy to use, and seamlessly connected with each other. By revealing and eliminating friction points through data, organizations take one step closer to achieving a digital experience that is fit for our new hybrid world.

The practice, which launched at the beginning of the year comprises of 20 lawyers, including around 10 partners, across the firm���s global network.
