11/30/2023 0 Comments Resort hoppa palma![]() In our opinion the service is absolutely shocking. ![]() ( mantra from Hoppa was - claim your travel insurance !!!!!!!!!!!!- what type of company is this. Passengers were crying, we were told we would have to wait until Monday ( as they were still on strike till Monday ) before we got a flight to our destination. We had paid 129 Euros for the return journey, as did many other travellers, and in my opinion, the service was absolutely shocking!!!!!!!! we missed our flight, no taxis in Puerto, we travelled on the local bus to Palma, paid 20 Euros for the taxi ride to the airport when we arrived in Palma and when we got there it was an extra 640 Euros for our flight back to the UK. They had gone on strike on Friday - no text, call or any communication whatsoever.! We waited in the resort from 8.00 a.m. We left Puerto Pollensa on Friday having confirmed our travel as per their instructions for the return journey. Thanks a lot - I won't be using them again. He also pointed to the luggage hold and left us to struggle and load our cases. The hoppa arrived for us about 15 minutes late and we were told off by the driver who said he'd been waiting at the Bahia Pollenca for us and that wasn't where we had been staying! I obviously knew where we'd been staying and wasn't even aware there was another hotel with a similar name! Why would I have given them the wrong hotel name?! The driver was out to argue the toss about this rather than letting us on the bus, even though he had our names on his list. I did that and was told, rather curtly, that I had already phoned and I had to explain that I needed the time for collection. She then said I would have to phone again later to find out what time we would be collected. The person on the phone could not find us on the records for some time but then did find us and I confirmed the name of our hotel (Hostal Bahia). I phoned to confirm our return trip just over 24 hours before we needed collecting. I appreciate that the bus could not get right to the hotel due to pedestrianisation and narrow streets but some indication from the driver as to where we needed to go would have been helpful. After waiting for 45 minutes at Palma Airport before the bus departed, we were dropped off in Puerta Pollensa at 10 pm, not at our hotel, and had to ask people for directions as this was our first visit. It's the whole principle of the matter and the differing of information that is the issue and the inconsistency of events as to why they didn't fulfill their own terms and conditions whilst quoting them to me! Definitely don't recommend them and would have given them 0 stars if could.My daughter and I have recently used Resort Hoppa from Palma Airport to Puerta Pollenca and return. Well they don't want to know now! Told us driver would have waited an hour - they weren't even there when I spoke to them. Then missed a call from them and then finally got hold of them to be told they would be about 35 minutes late due to change over of drivers and their shifts and we would be quicker getting taxis! They said to claim the prepaid fare back once home. Tried contacting Hoppa on way to meeting point to no avail. By time we disembarked plane we were a total of 45 mins late. Slight delay actually taking off from runway. Eventually one needs to go to the refund website, which does not work either.ĭO NOT USE! First impression very good, emails sent and initial good communication, so fills you with confidence that they provide a good service! How wrong!! The email received after two working days informs you that they regret what happened and that they refund you in Hoppa credits, whilst I paid an additional EUR 21.60 to get a full refund. A complaint can only be lodged via the website, there are no contact details. I tried to call the UK number many times to lodge a complaint, unfortunately one does not get further than listening to the waiting tape. This resulted in us negotiating with a Taxi driver next to the road to take us to the hotel. ![]() The agent responding the emergency number informed us that our booking was cancelled by Hoppa and that they could not do anything about it, also not sending a new driver. Unfortunately no-one was there to pick us up. A day later I received my voucher with the confirmation, pickup time etc. Once clicked you receive an email that the booking was successfully amended, but nothing changed. The link provided in the email takes you to a webpage which only lets you confirm the amendment without showing any information or what the amendment is about. One week before departure I received an email that an amendment was required. One doesn't notice that it is a scam at first! Booking process is very smooth.

11/30/2023 0 Comments Benjamin schwartz md![]() Robotic joint replacements offer a fascinating case study on healthcare FOMO, as you pointed out. At Intel, we often see that implementing complex technological solutions in healthcare is best achieved when done incrementally, under the leadership of enthusiastic early adopters within the organization. ![]() Your point about starting small and finding champions is particularly compelling. The psychology of FOMO in healthcare, particularly among doctors and administrators, really offers a nuanced understanding of how adoption spreads in this sector. Spot-on observations, Benjamin Schwartz, MD, MBA. #healthcare #health #healthtech #digitalhealth #healthcareinnovation #healthcaretechnology #FOMO You want FOMO not GIMO - Glad I Missed Out. Finally, healthcare operators are petrified of workflow disruption. In healthcare, the heavier the lift, the higher the barrier to entry. Doing so makes your product seem unfocused. In theory, those things may be true, but they also significantly raise the chances of failure. Investors are constantly pushing companies to stretch outside their core competencies under the false belief that doing so expands the TAM, creates a moat, and offers a bigger exit opportunity. Wild hunch, many in the crop of digital health companies (including unicorns) that arose during the 2020-2022 funding craze are going to crash in large part because their hype far outpaced the quality of their product. Nothing beats organic growth and letting your product or service sell itself. ![]() Generating buzz means delivering a delightful experience that people start talking about. No one has FOMO over something that doesn't work, or nobody likes. (Caveat - don't treat them as a means to get access to higher level decision makers. Give them advisory roles and solicit their feedback early and often. Find people that are excited about change and thoughtful about how to achieve it. This approach takes too long, requires going through too many layers, and never generates FOMO. Every company wants to land that massive, system-wide rollout. Forget pilots - find a champion and start small. Every hospital C-suite exec knows they need AI even if they have no idea how to get it, use it, or implement it. We've seen this with health tech, most notably AI. But as soon as the product or service is on a billboard or all over the media (local or national), you can bet FOMO is rising. When selling to hospitals or health systems, one of the first questions is going to be: "Who else is using this?" If the answer is "no one," good luck. It's a master class in healthcare FOMO).Īdministrators are no different. Despite lack of robust clinical evidence of their superiority, their use has exploded. (Robotic joint replacements are a perfect example. Experience enough FOMO, and you'll become a convert. Hear about it enough, and competitive nature compels you to investigate. Once there's a modicum of success, others start to take notice.ĭoctors get annoyed when patients ask them about a technique, product, or procedure a colleague is using but they aren't. It often starts with those one or two individuals willing to be innovative, take calculated business/culture/workflow risks, and swim against the current. One of the most underappreciated aspects of selling into healthcare and driving change: FOMO.ĭocs and administrators are a weird mix of ultracompetitive, cautious, and reactionary. ![]() Genesis 12,6: “Abram passed through the land as far as the site of Shechem,up to Eilon Moreh.” Were they oaks, were they terebinths or were they something else? There is much confusion in the translations of “ eilon ” (and “eilonei”) in Genesis. The galls were also used to make black ink used by Torah scribes. These were gathered, ground into flour, and cooked to produce the red dye. The insect attaches itself to the bark, sucks at the trunk and secretes a substance that forms a protective scaly gall nut. The name ‘tolea’ in Hebrew may refer to the name for the famous scarlet dye mentioned in the Bible תולעת שני ‘tola’at shani’ which was made from the oak coccoid. It is deciduous and its acorns are thinner and longer than other kinds of acorns. Quercus boissieri אלון התולע or Aleppo Oak is a taller species and grows in woodland above 800 metres. It produces a fatter acorn with a spiky, shaggy cup. Quercus ithaburensis אלון התבור or the Mt Tabor Oak is taller and deciduous – losing its spiky green leaves in the winter. It is evergreen, it flowers in the spring and produces acorns in the summer and fall. ![]() Quercus calliprinos אלון מצוי or Kermes O ak is the most common species of oak. The prophet Amos was aware of how tough oaks were when he used the term חסון הוא כאלונים – as strong as an oak. Oaks are solid, slow growing trees that can live for hundreds of years. They are confused with other trees and with each other. Deborah, Rebecca’s nurse, was buried under an oak ( Genesis 35, 8) as it was a sign of respect to bury the dead under these tall trees.Įven though oak and terebinth have grown wild in Israel since ancient times and continue to figure prominently in woodland and scrub of the Mediterranean landscape, they are seldom given the respect they deserve. ![]() While the people were chastised for worshipping the oak and terebinth trees, our forefathers and mothers pledged allegiance to their one true God beneath these very trees, possibly in defiance of the popularly held belief that the trees had supernatural, providential powers. Tradition has it that he smashed his father’s idols which may have been fashioned from oak and terebinth wood. When Abraham had a revelation that there was only one almighty God, he campaigned to promote this radical new idea. Alon אלון is the oak and Ela אלה is the terebinth. Two kinds of impressive trees in Israel have the word el אל embedded in their names. Tall, stately trees have been revered as gods since the beginning of recorded history. We can only fully understand their meaning if we learn about the trees, flowers and plants they mention. Profound messages from our prophets, kings and rabbis were drawn from references to nature. By Elly Waller, a guide at the Neot Kedumim Biblical Landscape Reserve. 11/29/2023 0 Comments 1000cc automatic motorcyclesmarket is currently 36.6%, down from 42.3% from the same timeframe last year (August YTD),” said BMW product planner Vinny Kung. “The big cruiser market is a very big chunk of the big cake,” said R 18 designer Edgar Heinrich.īut the cake is being eaten and everyone wants a bite. ![]() The idea with the R 18 was to compete with the mighty sales juggernaut of Harley-Davidson in the cruiser segment, where Harley has dominated American buyers for seemingly ever. Pricing starts at a very reasonable $16,640 including destination but can easily clear 20k with a few options. That 1802cc flat twin (!!!) puts out 91 hp and 116 lb-ft of torque, more than enough to move the bike’s 761 pounds of curb weight. ![]() The R 18 harkens back to the very roots of BMW Motorrad and the 1923 R 23, from which the R 18 gets its basic shape, flat-twin engine configuration, and even shaft drive.īut it’s all modernized. There is no more retro a motorcycle than this R 18 anywhere on this page, and probably anywhere in the world. So read on, fellow bikers, and see if nostalgia really is better the second time around. Now we can buy a motorcycle that looks mostly like whatever we had or wanted back then and find that this one starts every time, handles safely, and never catches on fire. But now that we are all successful businessmen/women/doctors/lawyers/cartel kingpins, we can afford to recapture that youth that slipped away. Sure, it wasn’t true-we all had acne, no money, and half the time that car/bike/board wasn’t working for one reason or another. ![]() And at that time, we owned a car or a motorcycle or a skateboard that was the main delivery vehicle of all those good times. But I think we all look back to whatever the hell it is we did in high school and see our younger selves as some kind of superhumans, who had the most fun we would ever have in our soon-to-be-dull-and-responsible lives. Why is nostalgia such a powerful draw? Who knows? I’m a script-writer not a psychiatrist. All you have to do is pick the particular era of yesteryear that appeals to you and voila, there will be a bike waiting for you. If you yearn for the classic bikes of yesteryear, but don’t like carburetors and kick starters, there is a fleet of motorcycles in almost every showroom right now waiting for you. 11/29/2023 0 Comments Make crosswords onlineMaking the crossword experience unique and easy to use across an Now those other companies are just aĬlick away, and media companies need to come up with inventive ways of That allowed them to print the same crossword as hundreds of other Syndication companies have been offering digital crossword puzzlesįor many years now, but online newspapers lack the geographic monopoly Time they're looking to give loyal readers an incentive to sign up Risk of leaving behind one of their most popular franchises just at the Specifically to news consumption on mobile devices, newspapers run the Relate to how angry subscribers get when the results of the previousĭay's crossword doesn't appear in the paper.Īs audiences move from the print product to digital, and more Puzzles, games and comics have long been a staple of newspapers andīeloved by their most loyal readers, and I'm sure most editors can True that they like keeping up with current events, the addiction thatĬontinues to fuel their subscription spending are the crosswords.

Apply an all-purpose fungicide to the entire plant, following the label instructions carefully. Copper penetrates the leaf surface and prevents germination of spores so the fungus cannot spread. Reapply as directed on the product label. Spray a copper-based fungicidal soap on the leaves, coating the top and bottom leaf surfaces. Repeat every two weeks until existing spots stop enlarging and new spots no longer appear. Using a spray bottle, spray on tops and bottoms of leaves until the mixture drips off. Dissolve ½ teaspoon of baking soda and one teaspoon of liquid soap in a gallon of water. Organic options won’t kill the fungus, but will prevent it from spreading. It is recommended to start by applying organic treatment options, working up to the more potent synthetic, chemical fungicides if necessary. However, if much of the foliage is affected and defoliation occurs, the plant will benefit from getting rid of the infection. Solutions: In minor cases of brown spot, there isn’t any need to treat the disease. Diseased or damaged stems should be cut right at the soil line and removed completely. Finally, you may prefer to just trim off dead or damaged portions of the plant to keep it looking its best as if it's possible. Branches that require a saw need to be pruned using the "three-cut method", which prevents the bark of the branch from tearing and creating cracks in the trunk, which can be detrimental to the recovery of the plant. Pruning Saw is required if the branch is more than three quarters of an inch in size, pruning should be done in the direction of the "Branch bark ridge" to the "Branch collar" to allow for good healing. Branches that are too angled or too small should be removed. When pruning branches you need to leave the strong ones and remove the weak ones, keeping healthy auxiliary branches that grow outwards at about 45 degrees. This will increase ventilation and light, reduce disease infection and allow Sugar maple to grow more vigorously. Leaving these intact will allow the tree to have a more natural and open form. Ideally, you should steer clear from pruning any of the tree’s lower limbs. Keep an eye out for any shoots that are becoming congested or are beginning to cross and remove them. This is the period when pruning causes the least damage to the plant. The best time to prune Sugar maple is between late winter to early spring. 11/29/2023 0 Comments Elk camera liveThe live stream is slated to run until the end of the bugling season, likely sometime in mid to late October. Without them, the elk’s success wouldn’t be the same.” Give credit to sound management, the creation of better elk habitat all across northcentral Pennsylvania, and most importantly, people who care. Elk have not always had an easy time of it in Pennsylvania, but since the Game Commission reintroduced elk to the state in 1913, they’ve pulled through some tough times and, today, we have one of the top herds in the country. Matthew Hough said, “While there’s no substitute for visiting elk country in person, the camera gives viewers a taste of what the excitement is all about. The live stream ing video, which is provided by the Game Commission’s partner, HDOnTap, is the latest in a string of real-time wildlife-watching opportunities offered by the Game Commission. Video and sound from the camera are being live streamed on the Game Commission’s website. ![]() The camera was installed with help from the state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources’ Bureau of Forestry. The Pennsylvania Game Commission has installed a camera on State Game Lands 311 in Elk County, in a field that is off limits to people, that typically is a hub of elk activity as the bugling season heats up. ![]() ![]() Now you can see Pennsylvania’s elk rut live and without ever having to leave home. Each fall, thousands of visitors make their way to Pennsylvania’s elk country to experience the wonder of the rut which is the elk bugling season. 11/29/2023 0 Comments Cheap oil changes in san angelo tx![]() Check 4 client reviews, rate this bank, find bank financial info, routing numbers.

Cutting oil and some other specialized products are more important in relation to grade selection. This system is now used to classify all industrial lubricating oils where viscosity is an important criterion in the selection of the oil. This is illustrated in the table below, which shows the ISO viscosity grade numbers, the mid-points of each bracket, and the viscosity limits For example, ISO viscosity grade 32 relates to the viscosity bracket 28.8 to 35.2 mm2/s, the mid point of which is 32.0 mm2/s. The numbers indicate to the nearest whole number, the mid points of their corresponding brackets. It consists of a series of 18 viscosity brackets between 1.98 mm2/s and 1650 mm2/s, each of which is defined by a number. ![]() The ISO viscosity classification uses mm2/s (cSt) units and relates to viscosity at 40oC.
