The journey of man: a genetic odysseyAround 60, 000 years ago, a man walked the soil of Africa. Every person alive today is descended from him. How did he come to be the father to all of us - a real-life Adam? The answer, as Spencer Wells shows, is hidden in our genetic code. It enables us not just to discover where our ancestors lived (and who they may have fought, loved and learned from) but to create a family tree for the whole of humanity. The Journey of Man reveals, among other things, how we evolved into such a huge variety of sizes, shapes and races; how humanity spread from Africa to the far corners of the earth; and who the real Adam and Eve were. This enthralling tour through our shared history provides answers to questions which, in an age obsessed by who we are and where we really came from, are more compelling than ever. |

Laura Hand anchors CNY Central's Weekend Today in Central New York.
UTICA -- Police say a Utica woman and her estranged husband are dead in what appears to be a murder-suicide.
Utica Police say they were called to a 'possible death' investigation at 322 South Street, south of the Bagg's Square District, at 10:30 Friday night.
Utica Police identified the two deceased as 45-year-old Moeun Parm and 45-year-old Somnang Parm, both of Utica.
They were found dead with gunshot wounds inside Moeun Parm's home. Police say the two were estranged and Moeun Parm had just returned from a trip to Cambodia.
Police stopped short of calling it a murder-suicide, but they said it appeared the couple died of gunshot wounds and no suspects were being sought.
(Information from the Associated Press was used in this report.)

These three guys were disrespectful towards Police and I do not go for that.

I think we can calmly discuss what those soldiers did in Iraq. Protecting US citizens or protecting Constitutional Freedoms is not what those soldiers did. There is a group that is named "Iraq Veterans against the War". I suggest you find some of the reports these veterans have made after returning from Iraq. Perhaps when you hear the actual veterans from that war speak your idea about what happened will change.
PVK is right. You can be driving under the influence with a .06 BAC. Journalists must get this straight.
The .08 "limit" is nothing more than the level at which intoxication is legally presumed. A cop does not have to provide any evidence other than the lawfully-obtained .08 reading to establish the legal presumption of drunken driving. This presumption can be rebutted (faulty equipment, etc.)
It is just flat incorrect to say there is a .08 legal limit for BAC.
Nope. Has to be in the print edition of Police Dispatch. It has that toothless-redneck, rock-bottom hitting, substance-abused cache of shame.

Steven Gerrard and Jamie Oliver call on PM to fight obesity
UK now has the highest rate of obesity in Europe, with one in three children overweight or obese by the age of nine�
Professor Terence Stephenson Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health
I have copied this over from the BBC website as I know that some find it difficult to acess links........
Steven Gerrard and Jamie Oliver call on PM to fight obesity
Steven Gerrard and Jamie Oliver Steven Gerrard and Jamie Oliver call for compulsory cooking lessons and food education in schools.
Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver and England footballer Steven Gerrard are calling on the government to fight obesity through cookery teaching in schools.
They have joined figures in health and education as signatories to a letter to the prime minister suggesting changes be made to the national curriculum.
The letter says all pupils aged four to 14 would benefit from food education.
The Department for Education said it was already undertaking a review.
The letter says the "pride" of hosting the Olympic Games has been "tainted by the shameful fact that Britain is the fattest nation in Europe".
Professor David Haslam, chair of the National Obesity Forum, who also signed the letter, said: "The 2012 Olympics provide a unique opportunity to improve the nation's health and reduce the burden of obesity.
"However, sitting in front of the television, cheering our elite athletes on, while eating crisps and chocolates, drinking sugar-sweetened beverages is entirely counter-productive."
Teaching children through the National Curriculum how to prepare nutritious meals for themselves and their families would be an important step in tackling the rising obesity epidemic, the letter argues.
Without these skills, people are less likely to exercise meaningful control over their diet and food intake, and tend to rely on pre-prepared or takeaway foods, the campaigners add.
Oliver has previously campaigned for healthier school dinners while Gerrard is ambassador for the Get Up, Get Moving programme designed to increase awareness of physical activity and healthy eating.
Other signatories to the letter include Dr Clare Gerada, chair of the Royal College of General Practitioners, Christine Blower, general secretary of the National Union of Teachers, and Professor Terence Stephenson, president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health.
Besides the call for compulsory cookery lessons, they note the need for more sporting role models to promote the benefits of a healthy lifestyle to children.
They write: "As a group of charities and leading professionals in the field of medicine, food, sport, education and cookery, we firmly believe that the impact of obesity on our health is a very serious problem."
'Obesity crisis'
Dr Gerada said: "I have a number of patients who have never cooked a meal, ever, in their entire lives.
"The closest they may ever get to cooking a meal is putting something in the microwave.
"I think it is important that we put cookery back into schools so that at least children can see how much sugar goes into an average cake or how much fat goes into a pastry so they can make choices about what they're going to eat."
Prof Stephenson said: "The UK now has the highest rate of obesity in Europe, with one in three children overweight or obese by the age of nine....
England and Liverpool player Steven Gerrard. Steven Gerrard is ambassador for the Get Up, Get Moving programme.
"We need to act now but we will not win this fight alone. Parents, schools, healthcare professionals and the government must take a united approach in order to combat this obesity crisis."
The Department for Education said it was reviewing the National Curriculum and would make a further announcement in the future.
"We know that a healthy attitude towards food, developed early, is critical to the health, well-being and good educational attainment of young people," it said.
"That's why we've asked the School Food Trust to use their expertise and draw up early years nutritional guidance and why maintained schools must abide by the national minimum standards for nutrition."
It added that the Department of Health was committed to tackling obesity and major retailers and food manufacturers had backed the government's Responsibility Deal aimed at helping people to cut their calorie consumption.

Re: Steven Gerrard and Jamie Oliver call on PM to fight obesity
I fully agree that cooking skills should be taught in schools , and we have I know discussed this in the past here on the forum , I thought with the food revolution day coming up on the 19th May that we could reopen a discussion on our thoughts about teaching cooking in schools.
Over recent years with my 4 children going through the school system I was quite shocked aat the level of cookery that happened in the highschools here in the UK.
My children were fortunate as I always cooked at home and used fresh ingredients and from a young age , they learned about food and cooking skills from what they saw and what they ate as well as trying out cooking themselves .
However , learning about cooking in school.. well that was negligable.
One daughter tells me she made
a quiche ( was meant to take in bought pastry but she made it at hme to take in )
a baked potato ... with a simple filling ... cheese or similar !
a salad
and chcolate chip cupcakes....
Not a great deal of skill as I am sure you are the first to agree.
Much of the work they dis in the food tecnology classes was done on worksheets and not a practical skill.
Primary schools here in the UK do tell children about foods that are healthy and foods that are not and I know that many do try to cook with the children as and when they are able , but there is a limit to what can be included in within the strict guidelines of the national curriculum.
When I was at school , we learned to cook , we learned about all the different meats, vegetables, pastry , breads , cakes , how to peel , chop , grate etc etc .
Skills that could get a person through any cookerybook that they would come across ( well almost any cookery book ! ) .
These days I dont think that the skills taught would get you very far at all.
I would like to see a good range of cooking skills taught in schools , ones that will help , ones that are not mainly learned from worksheets or booklets.

Re: Steven Gerrard and Jamie Oliver call on PM to fight obesity
I wonder how many primary schools are doing as we are, teaching cookery and linking it to the curriculum....? Numeracy, literacy, science, social skills all come into our cookery lessons. Every child from aged 4 - 11 cooks regularly and will leave us with a skill set that enables them to safely prepare healthy meals from scratch. Not only do they learn to cook and eat well, their cross curricular skills are enhanced through use in the practical kitchen environment.
This week, in time for The food Revolution, we have an article and photographs in our local paper.
We would be happy to speak with anyone wishing to learn more about how we have set up our cookery programme and what we have discovered over the 2 years it has been running.

Re: Steven Gerrard and Jamie Oliver call on PM to fight obesity
Hi, if you go to the school website: www.greatdunmowprimary.co.uk and look on the cookery page you can see what we do...I always take lots of photographs and it is fairly up to date.
When I have a little more time, I will write in more detail but to give you an idea, we start with gingerbread men for the first Foundation stage lesson, as this is a theme running through the numeracy and literacy lessons in class. The children cook in groups of 6. Our cookery skill is sifting, a good coordination exercise. The children take it in turns to cream the mixture etc. We smell the ginger and cinnamon and taste and smell treacle and syrup and compare them. They make patterns when adding the treacle and syrup. They help roll out the dough, use their chosen cutters and count out their currants...all fine motor skills and a bit of numeracy. The children take it in turns to fetch things so listening skillls and ability to follow instructions are important. every aspect of the cuuriculum gets covered in most lessons, on a similar basis to lesson 1! In their second session they make vegetable stir fry cooking on the hob and eating what they make but that is another tale for another day...take a look at the photographs in the meantime!

Hey I'm trying to find out as much as I can about the Alabama 25th Reg. Company F. I know that they fought at Jonesboro because I have a copy of the application of artificial limb It says he was wounded at Jonesboro Ga, August 31, 1861 Right leg amputated. HE was my geart great Grandfather. |

spoofseeker- I have searched for PVT Counts in the Civil War Soldiers and Sailors' System. It shows a person of that name in the 25th Alabama, but in Co. K. Civil War Soldiers and Sailor System Next I sought a history of the 25th Alabama, and this one looks pretty good. 25th Alabama (History of the 25th Alabama Infantry Regiment) However, I couldn't find PVT Counts in the rosters given of Co. K or of Co. F. Perhaps those rosters are incomplete. General Wheeler's book might also be of use. Confederate Military History of Alabama You probably know who this Simeon Luther Counts (1899-1953) is. He is buried in Amarillo, TX. Simeon Luther Counts (1899 - 1953) - Find A Grave Memorial Good luck with your search. |

Why would he be listed in the 25th Alabama, and the the 33rd? Was it normal for the to be listed in ore than one regiment? And our record from the aplication for artificial limb states he was in company f along with the Application for relief for maimed or disabled soildiers. Is it normal for the records to be this screwed up? LOL |

spoofseeker- There are something like 4.2 million persons, or at least listings for persons, on the Soldiers and Sailors System. Of course there are errors, as well as incomplete listings. In some cases, the same person can appear multiple times due to variation in spelling of names or initials. Its also true that some persons served in more than one regiment in the war. As CSA regiments were worn down, they were sometimes consolidated into a previous regiment, or given a new designation. I can't see where that happened between the 25th and the 33rd Alabama regiments. So either there were two Simeons, or the original one was at one point listed on the roster of the 33rd Alabama. I can't give you the answer on that one. |

spoofseeker- You mentioned that your ancestor was wounded at Jonesborough in 1864. At that place, General Hardee commanded the two CSA corps engaged. Here is a summary: Battle of Jonesborough Railroad Georgia Civil War August September 1864 Here is a site that will give you the order of battle of virtually every battle during the war. With this and the unit history, you can see the order of battle of every engagement of the 25th Alabama. A Battles - Gong to: "J" battles, you can find Jonesborough (AKA Jonesboro): JONESBORO, GEORGIA- You can see that the 25th Alabama was in Deas Brigade, Ed Johnson's Division, and S.D. Lee's Corps at that place. Last edited on Fri Mar 26th, 2010 05:45 am by Texas Defender |

I found two Pvt. Counts in Company K 25th Al. Infantry,,,, Daniel Counts and Simeon Counts..... Another brief history of the regiment.... 25th Regiment, Alabama Infantry 25th Infantry Regiment was formed at Mobile, Alabama, in December, 1861, by consolidating the 1st and 6th (McClellan's) Alabama Infantry Battalions. The men were from the counties of Saint Clair, Talladega, Pickens, Shelby, Calhoun, Randolph, Coffee, and Pike. Sent to Tennessee, the regiment was assigned to General Gladden's Brigade, but because of illness had only 305 effectives at Shiloh. It saw little action in the Kentucky Campaign under General Gardner, then was attached to General Deas', G.D. Johnston's, and Brantley's Brigade, Army of Tennessee. The 25th participated in the difficult campaigns of the army frm Murfreesboro to Atlanta, fought with Hood in Tennessee, and was engaged at Kinston and Bentonville. It reported 90 casualties at Shiloh and 117 at Murfreesboro. This unit lost thirty-three percent of the 330 at Chickamauga, and in December, 1863, totalled 304 men and 174 arms. Forty-one percent of 273 were disabled in the Battle of Atlanta, and thirteen percent of 173 at Ezra Church. It surrendered with 70 officers and men. Colonels John Q. Loomis and George D. Johnston, Lieutenant Colonel William B. McClellan, and Major Daniel E. Huger were its field officers. Here's a site to Deas Brigade....learned form it Company K was called "Rabby's Independent" company http://history-sites.com/~kjones/gardner.html#25th-Inf |

The Human Cost of Stuff |
The way we make and use stuff is harming the world—and ourselves. To create a system that works, we can't just use our purchasing power—we must turn it into citizen power.

Fall 2013 "From Kenya to Costco" by Simon Okelo. |
Winter 2014 "Heal the Warrior, Heal the Country" by Edward Tick. |
Spring 2014 To be determined! |
Registration is now open for the Fall 2013 Writing Competition!
Here's an opportunity that not only will push your students' writing and critical thinking, but also will meet several Common Core State Standards.
[Photo by Betty Udesen]
What Does "Enough" Mean?
This fall, students will read and respond to the YES! Magazine article, "From Kenya to Costco: The Real Value of Things," by Simon Okelo. Simon's story is about having to relearn the meaning of "enough." Simon grew up in the slums of Kisumu, Kenya, where he subsisted on basic necessities. There, he witnessed patience from families waiting for drinking water, and sold milk packets for two cents a piece to buy a pair of shorts for his school uniform. When he moved to the United States, he became an American consumer inundated by choices, until he decided to simplify his lifestyle.
Students will have plenty to think about as they write an essay of up to 700 words answering this writing prompt: Simon Okelo, who grew up in Kenya, had to relearn what "enough" means. He came to appreciate the volume of options at Costco, but practiced restraint to purchase just what he needed. Imagine that you simplified your life. What things would you choose to pare down or get rid of? What might change for you? What might change for society if other people did this?
The deadline for registration is Saturday, October 18, 2013. Essays must be submitted no later than November 22, 2013.
Teachers who submit essays will be entered into a drawing to win a complete set of 18 YES! posters for their classroom, valued at $66. See what you could win here!

Pumpkin Patch
We finally made it to a pumpkin patch this weekend. We like to go every year and take pictures of the kids to capture them and that time in our little family.
It always gets me thinking about time. How fast it goes. How important it is to document the little things. The milestones. The small habits and facial expressions. These moments in time. They are so precious and priceless.
Asher is in a goofy phase {I hope?} of thinking it's funny to make faces for pictures.
Bella is all over the place, flipping and tripping over every little bump in the ground. Or heck even every big bump.... like say a bench. You name it and our graceful Bella trips over it. The funny thing is she is so unphased by it. She can face plant it over a huge tree stump, stand up, brush herself off and smile like a pro.
Mia is starting to pull up on everything. She thinks she is pretty cute stuff.
I pretty much think she is too. I love this picture of her.
Oh and my husband. My hunky husband. He never changes. He looks exactly the same as last year and the year before. And the year before that. I'm not sure that's fair?
At this point I was just happy to catch a few good pictures to document this time in our family. It was a bit tough with Bella rolling in the hay, Asher jumping off pumpkins, and Mia revolting against her hat.
But I was ok with that. These pictures represent more than just the moment you see. They tell a story and I think it's important to tell it. It's so easy to look at someones life and think it's perfect. I also think it's easy to want to make it seem that way.
Our life is not perfect. And I wouldn't want it to be. It's in our imperfections, our flaws, our struggles and our honesty about them... that God can be more greatly shown.
And that the blessings, the triumphs and the beauty of a small moment are that much more lovely and treasured.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful family pictures! I enjoy your blog sooo much!! It is definitely one of my favorites :) You are always so uplifting. Truly a blessing in my life.
I have a question for you. As I mentioned your pictures are beautiful (as always) and I am in the market for a new camera. May I ask what camera you use? I am totally overwhelmed by all the options! Thanks so much.

Implementing SaaS CRM - White paper
During the last decade we have all experienced how goods and services have been digitized and virtualized. Not only are these tangible things transforming, software – the driving power of many of these goods and services – is also impacted by this trend. The question arises as to how a class of products that is natively digital has been transformed in the way it is delivered and consumed? Think about the tablets (iPad) and the way of using software. People no longer need to know how to install and use a software to run certain tasks. This can all be solved now with the tip of a finger on an icon. How is this possible? It is all due to the Internet, that connects people to people, businesses to businesses, and people to businesses. Today, this allows us to do things that would not have been possible 10–15 years ago.
SaaS (Software as a Service) is a software delivery model in which software and the associated data are hosted centrally and typically accessed via the Internet. CRM is – and continues to be – the largest market for SaaS, and many enterprises already rely on the flexibility and stability SaaS technology provides. This White Paper describes the potential of an SaaS implementation at an international pharmaceutical company.

In response to Beantowne's comment:
did you also factor into the math that Jeter plays in Yankee stadium...where as a rule players try to go the other way, and most teams try to stack thier lineups with left handed bats...which could also account for the amount of chances.
It'd be interesting to see the number of chances for other positions for the Yankees, especially third base and second base, compared to other teams.
Also the Yankees have been consistently near the top in pitching numbers, so they should have less fielding chances overall than other teams.

Did anyone else get Pinkerton Diaries today? It's waiting for me at home and I cannot wait to be done with work and go open it!!!
Reading the book all in one sitting definitely made me super depressed last night. Still how freaking amazing.
Well, it's a very negative and pessimistic book, particularly in analysis of the Pinkerton album and its "failures." Also, Rivers' writing style is incredibly cynical (but also really great).
(to be fair, I also read Wuthering Heights afterward but it mostly came from PD)
i agree. it's depressing to read how someone so brilliant is vexed by his creations. he spent 12 hours a day working on sftbh. and all that time he was worrying if he would even like it. it's sad to know that rivers felt so much frustration not just from his self-perceived failures but his successes as well. much of the book is about his painful leg operation and the "failure" of pinkerton. not really a happy story.
however, it's nice to know that he's moved on from graphing his levels of suffering in a diary and seems to have a happy life now.
I am more and more impressed with his lyrics as I read this. Being able to see how songs came together and the notes and everything is just amazing.
Your comments about the book are making me feel so miserable for not having it in my hands to read it, does it include details on how was everything while in Harvard?? I want to know more about the story behind El Scorcho, Pink Triangle and Falling for You...
Avery Doll said:

In the Pinkerton Diaries... in the script for SFTBH it's listed as part of it, but the lyrics are different. In the PD, there's a lot of different versions of TG with many different lyrics.
Jens Van Avondt said:
Yeah, I really hope there comes a full version of SFTBH
Thanks for your thoughts Daniel, really apreciated.
btw You list Tragic Girl as a SFTBH song? Is it a SFTBH song?
Joan Wasser was Rivers' pick for the female lead in SFTBH and he uses the term "jo-jo" interchangeably with Maria when referring to her/her character.
Max said:
The only thing I am confused about in SFTBH is who is Jo-Jo? I thought there was just Jonas, Wuan, Dondo, M1, Laurel, and Maria.
Mine came today!!! I live in Toronto, Canada.
stay on topic, mod
drewid-boy chicken wing said:
How's el Scorcho coming along?
Stefan said:Mine came today!!! I live in Toronto, Canada.
Mine arrived this afternoon. I'm thrilled to hear the songs & to settle into reading the book tonight.
*insert 'immersed in book' smiley*.
It comes with 6 postcards. Is the premium pack worth the extra $60? I kinda think no based solely on value...but of course in my excited haste when ordering I jAust added it haha
The 20x40 Pinkerton poster print has no text on it indicating what it is (it doesn't say Pinkerton or Weezer or anything) -- I mean it's a pretty print of the Hiroshige woodblock print blown up, but unless you're a huge fan of Hiroshige...also since they had made it a point to call it a 'lithograph' I thought it'd be nicer quality, but it's just standard poster quality [yes, technically still a litho but no nicer], and of course Cinderblock sent it just badly rolled up not even wrapping it in paper or anything, so mine is slightly creased here and there ((off topic, but NOT a fan of Cinderblock shipping at all =P!!!))
I guess it just depends on how much you want the limited edition shirt and above mentioned Pinkerton poster--which, even if they were available to be bought separately eventually, they'd probably charge $30 for the shirt and $30 for the poster anyway...((on the invoice slip they list the 'Pinkerton Litho' at $29, which frankly I would not have spent that much on it by itself))

Tired from a long day, we checked into the Holiday Inn, Gresham. The room had a funny smell, but we chalked it up to cleaning products. But when I climbed into bed and noticed a strong body odor from between the sheets, I pulled them back and a huge wet spot revealed itself along with a horrible stench. Almost physically sick, I went to the front desk […] and asked for a different room. The clerk apologized and assigned us a different room at the opposite end of the hotel. After packing for twenty miuntes we trundled a cart full of our belongings to the distant new room. One would have thought that a complimentary night, a coupon for the on-site restaurant, or at least a call from the manager would have been in order. But ... nothing. Here's a case where housekeeping inflicted a deep wound in a hotel's reputation (at least with us). It's hard to believe that a maid did not notice the stench or wet spot, but somehow the covers were pulled up and the bed made WITHOUT CHANGING THE LINENS FOR A NEW GUEST. I'm sure this goes on a lot, but lesson to learn: YOUR REPUTATION IS IN HOUSEKEEPING'S HANDS. Stay on top of their performance and find a way to ensure that new guests get new bed linens!

Please accept our apology and we would invite you to stay with us again to see that yours was a one-time incident and that we strive to make every guest stay a pleasant and restful experience.
"Very Friendly Environment"
I very much appreciated the courtesy and friendliness of everyone I encountered from the front desk to the housekeeping staff. They accommodated my need to check in early to prepare for a presentation and I appreciated there was no blaring TV in the breakfast area. I missed the lack of a refrigerator and microwave in the room, but gladly surrender those […] for the welcome feeling and quiet room environment. I will definitely stay here again!

"Better than most rooms for around $100"
Modern, clean, comfortable. Room was large -- plenty of room for 2 of us and all our things for five nights, six days. Parking was convenient. Breakfast was much better than most "included" breakfasts. Whirlpool and pool were nice extras. Missed having a small fridge and microwave in the room because we were staying five nights, but the coffeemaker […] provided us with hot water, and the ice maker was just down the hall. We will definitely return to this hotel. További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések

"clean and nice"
Room very clean, nice pool and fitness area, good grassy area for pets. Only complaint was about breakfast because we were there on a Sunday so it was supposed to stay open until 10:30. Luckily we showed up at 9:15 to find out that they were closing at 9:30 this particular day. Not much food was left, but it was enough for us. I just felt like we should […] have been notified at check-in about the early closure. További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések

"Check on pet fee before booking"
Room was fine; breakfast was great, but will not be staying here again because of $35 pet fee which was not clear upon booking. (They did waive it for us, however.)Hotels.com visszajelzések
"Convenience VS Cleanliness"
Convenient to our event and parking lot felt secure. The hotel's air conditioning was broken so it was like a sauna! Room was NOT clean - even after housekeeping had been there. We wiped off the counter after returning to our room and it was totally dirty. The restaurant was filthy and the attendant dropped an UNGLOVED handful of flatware on the floor […] - picked it up and put it in the bin for use....!!! YUCK! They did not have enough help to properly clean tables or refill food. Not sure the convenience of the site will be enough to bring us back. Rate was too high for all the INconveniences.

"Best value in the area"
The design of the hotel makes the rooms easy to get to from either elevator or anywhere in the parking lot. We kept our window open all night for fresh air and there was no noise in the neighborhood. The free breakfast (provided to all guests) was great the first night we stayed but the second morning there was no fruit or bagels when we came downstairs […] an hour before the breakfast time ended. The hotel seemed understaffed; the desk clerk had to do everything in the evening and the hallways and grounds needed some general clean-up. További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések

"Good place to bypass heavy Portland"
Though could not drive at speed limit the whole way on 205, it's not bad compared to Portland. This is especially true since hotel is close to Multnomah Fall, our destination. Shopping outlet is along the way, within 5 minutes. Breakfast was good and the lady was working diligently to clean tables, dishes and refilling food. Hot bacons were also served […] on my stay. However, can smell urine in strip mall beside the hotel. További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések

Poor service at check in... rooms not ready... no refrigerator or microwave, room size of a closet. Stayed here in the past and had great service...new management maybe.

Service was great! Hotel was eerie quiet. I was placed on the 4th floor in the way back. There were less then 15 cars in the parking lot which made me wonder, Why am I having to go so far? Hotel was very comfortable and I would stay again! Just not in the back 40! ;)Hotels.com visszajelzések

Easy access to & from the freeway. Close to shopping (a few blocks) & hospital (Mt Hood).

"Pay extra for "amenities" that don't deliver"
The hotel is in a decent location but some of the promised amenities that supposedly justify why the rates are significantly higher than similar nearby hotels didn't deliver for me at least. The hotel bar and restaurant, an amenity most of the nearby competition didn't offer, was a joke. First it's only open from 5-9, the bar has no atmosphere, and […] the vibe of the whole place seemed like the employees would be as surprised as anyone if people actually wanted to hang out there. The included buffet breakfast was decent and the server very friendly, however, don't try to order off the menu for breakfast. When I checked in the staff seemed proud to tell me that my rate allowed me to order breakfast off the menu instead of the buffet if I wanted to. The first morning of my 3 day stay I decided to do that. The server seemed shocked and admitted she never has anyone do that. A few minutes after ordering eggs benedict I was told they were out of english muffins (probably never had any) and when the dish arrived (on a piece of sourdough cut in half) it had no meat of any kind on it and the "hollandaise" consisted of melted cheddar over eggs poached hard. Needless to say the next two mornings I got the buffet. További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések

"Nice, comfortable and friendly"
From check in to check out my experience was overall pretty good. Comfortable room and the bed was lovely. Only 2 things could be improved upon with the room - 1) the AC barely kept it cool - not sure if it was because the room faced west or if because the AC was old and just didn't provide enough cooling. 2) Window coverings - a blackout curtain for […] morning would have been appreciated...the room became way too bright way too early. Breakfast buffet was pretty good - although I'm not a fan of buffets as a rule...too much contamination danger but I appreciate the cost effectiveness. Coffee could have been much better - not sure what brand is used but man oh man time to step up and get something better...especially in the room - blah! The proximity to the event I attended was a large factor in my selection of the hotel and so I am pleased that my overall experience was good. További részletekValódi Expedia visszajelzések

I personally hope that the "reward" we get will hold our next clue, and bring us into the next step of the game.
The online sections have been completed for those with enough perseverance to make it to the end, and those will be the ones allowed through. I suppose we'll just wait and see, then!

Earth 1.0 is likely earth before the first ice age. If the HPP facility was found in the area of the Taymyr Peninsula. Kind of a "First People" thing with a hint of Terra Nova.
I nearly thought it was further afield when the comic showed Europa.

Earth 1.0 ?

If they cut it off now, it would feel as though they are cutting it off at what finally feels like a compelling story at it's beginning.
I definitely hope to see more.

It definitely gives off a Myst vibe.
Curious on the history of this, and the implied predestination set thousands of years in advance.
Posted: Fri Nov 18, 2011 11:35 pm
It'd be cool if a mod could add a spoiler tag on the thread, because spoiler discussion here is kind of a given.
Good question, though. I think the final pages of the comic where Traelek referenced "you," he was talking about the player. I think what happened is that we were the ones to go through the now abandoned labs of HPP. Obviously, we freed the iceflies and they brought the world back to the state it used to be in. Traelek even mentions "humanity 2.0" which was made possible thanks to us!
But maybe I'm totally missing something. I feel like there's more, but everyone's got their conclusions now...
Posted: Fri Nov 18, 2011 11:34 pm
What now?
Our interpretations of what has come to pass, and what we think will happen next.
I am not sure what to think yet. Were we actually a main character? Or do all that just to give that guy his rover back?

text: | The latest with ACR's DEC applicationNovember 12, 2012 - Jessica CollierAs I was writing the story for today about the ACR seeking approval from the planning board for the first phase of the project, I got curious about whether Preserve Associates have moved forward with their application to the DEC yet. They need that approval before they can do anything. I've been checking in periodically with the DEC, and nothing has been submitted. I got a copy of the the most recent formal correspondence between the ACR and the DEC, and it lists all the correspondence and meetings DEC has had with ACR representatives. The ACR submitted updated application materials on Aug. 16, 2010, and received a formal notice of incomplete application on Oct. 18, 2010. ACR consultants met with the DEC in November and December of that year, then again in June 2011. The Jan. 10, 2012, followup letter was sent to ACR officials just before the project was approved by the APA. ACR developers had been hoping to be granted an exemption from newer DEC regulations, which went into effect in 2011. But according to the January 2012 letter from DEC Region 5 Director Robert S. Stegemann to Mike Foxman, the ACR is not eligible for the exemption. Foxman told the Enterprise in March when the Article 78 was filed that Preserve Associates is working on its DEC permit materials. "There is a DEC process going on; there are things being prepared," he said, adding that materials for being prepared for DEC permits. Article CommentsNo comments posted for this article.
