At Florist Concierge we are committed to exceptional service and products. If, for any reason, you are not completely satisfied with your gift or its delivery, please do not hesitate to contact us at 1-800-650-5058.
Our network of florists uses only the freshest flowers available for their hand-made bouquets to ensure that you can send flowers with confidence. And since every arrangement is personally delivered, we offer same-day delivery on most orders.
How to Place your Order Online
We've designed the Florist Concierge website to make it quick and simple for you to place an oder. After you've found the flowers or plant you want to send, click on the item name or image and follow the instructions below.
Choose Your Occasion
Choose Your Preferences. On the occasion information page, select how you would like to customize your gift.
For example, in some instances, you will be asked whether you want to send your gift as shown or in a deluxe or premium arrangement, or you may have the option to include something extra with your gift like a mylar balloon, stuffed animal or box of chocolates. When you choose an arrangement from our Flowers in a Gift collection, we'll ask you to enter your recipient's zip code so that we can guarantee that the florist in their neighborhood has the keepsake vessel in stock. Once you have selected from the preferences, click Add to Cart. Your gift bouquet will be stored in your personal shopping cart, and you can either continue browsing by clicking on Return to Shopping or proceed to Checkout.
Proceed to checkout. When you are ready to check out, click on the Shopping Cart link at the top of the page, and then select Checkout. You are now on the Log In page, and you will be asked to enter your e-mail address. If you are a returning shopper, enter your Florist Concierge password. If you are a new shopper, just click on the Continue button. You will have an opportunity to create a password later in the checkout process.
Provide recipient delivery information. After you log in, you will be asked for the recipient's delivery information. This information will allow us to ensure that your bouquet is created by an experienced florist in the recipient's neighborhood. You can choose to select a particular florist from the list of our partner's in the recipient's neighborhood, or you can choose to have us select one for you. At this time, you can also create a personal message for your card. For your convenience, we also offer pre-written messages.
Provide your billing information. You will be asked for your credit card information. Florist Concierge transmits all credit card information using the best software available for secure commerce transactions. Please review our Security and Privacy policy for more information.
Review your order. Review the details of your order, and click the Submit Order button. Your order will be received by Florist Concierge, and a neighborhood florist will begin creating your arrangement.
Save your confirmation. Florist Concierge will send a confirmation e-mail to the e-mail address you indicated at Log In. Please save this e-mail for future reference.
Order Changes and Cancellations
Florist Concierge is unable to cancel or change orders already in process at the florist, en route or delivered. Same-day orders are processed immediately, and usually cannot be changed. If you are calling about an order that is scheduled to be delivered today, call 1-800-650-5058.
Problems With an Order
At Florist Concierge, we make every effort to ensure that you receive excellent service. If, at any time, you experience problems with an order, please let us know.
Service Charge
A delivery fee of $14.95 USD and a service charge of 6.5% is applied to all flower and plant orders delivered in the U.S. and Canada.
Delivery Policy
Every Florist Concierge gift bouquet is personally hand-delivered by an industry professional, and we make every effort to deliver your order as quickly as possible.
Most of our products can be delivered the same day. To assure same-day delivery, orders must be received before 3:00 PM, Monday - Friday, or before 1PM on Saturdays in the recipient's time zone. Orders received after that time may be delivered the following day.
Regretfully, we are unable to guarantee time of delivery to rural route addresses, hotels, hospitals, military bases or cemeteries. To request a specific delivery time, please type it into the Special Instructions field during checkout. We will do our best to accommodate your preferences.
Before major holidays, we recommend that you place your orders at least five days in advance.
Please note that a delivery fee of $14.95 USD and a service charge of 6.5% is applied to all flower and plant orders delivered in the U.S. and Canada.
Delivery to Hospitals
The florists in our Florist Concierge network are experienced at making deliveries to hospitals. When placing your order, please be sure to include the hospital name and telephone number, the name of the recipient and room number or ward of the recipient.
Florist Concierge will send your gift bouquet in accordance with facility procedures, as most hospitals do not allow florists to personally deliver to individual rooms. Please note that many ICU patients are not permitted to receive flowers. Please check with the hospital before placing your order.
Recipient Not Home
If you have specific instructions for the delivery of your gift bouquet, please note them in the Special Delivery Instructions field during checkout. In all other cases, if the recipient is not at home when the neighborhood florist attempts a delivery, they will either:
Call the recipient to schedule an appropriate delivery time
Leave a note on the recipient's door asking them to contact the florist to schedule a delivery time
Leave the arrangement in a covered, secure area of the home (porch, garage, or other entrance)
Leave the gift bouquet with a neighbor and place a message on the recipient's door with this information
Substitution Policy
Occasionally, substitutions of flowers or containers are necessary due to temporary, regional availability issues. If this is the case with the gift you've selected, our experienced florists will ensure that the style, theme and color scheme of your arrangement is preserved and will only substitute items of equal or higher value.
Payment Options
Florist Concierge uses the industry's leading security technology to ensure that your order will be safe and secure. Please read our Satisfaction Guarantee and Security and Privacy policies for more information. For your convenience, Florist Concierge accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover Network, Diners Club, Carte Blanche, American Express and PayPal.

To show our appreciation, you'll receive a Thank You e-mail from us when your gift has been received.

Philadelphia's Civil Service Commission has paved the way for a Nutter administration plan to halve the number of paramedics serving on each of the fire department's 50 medic units, despite vehement objections from leaders of the city's firefighters and paramedics union.
By Mikala Jamison
The circumstances of the death of a 22-year-old Port Richmond man last year are under investigation by the Philadelphia Fire Department. His family says the tragedy is the result of negligent paramedics.
City Councilman James Kenney introduced legislation on Thursday to void the mayor's unilateral powers to appeal contract arbitration outcomes involving the city's firefighters, paramedics and police.
As a new year begins, the vast majority of Philadelphia Fire Department paramedics will be seeing a change of scenery, according to the head of the city's firefighters and medics union.

Former Apple CEO dishes on Steve Jobs' firing
John Sculley gives more details on one of the most notorious executive rejections in history.
The move wasn't that earth-shaking in corporate America at the time, although it certainly marked one of the lowest points in Apple's history. It was only after Jobs returned to Apple -- and subsequently became one of the most revered CEOs ever -- that observers wondered why the company ever let him go in the first place.
Jobs' great adversary at the time -- John Sculley -- has been pretty quiet about the whole thing. But at a recent conference in Indonesia, he finally spoke for eight minutes about how Jobs' firing happened, and what he regrets about it.
"I really blame the board," Sculley (pictured) said, according to a writeup of his speech in Forbes. "I think the board understood Apple before I came, they understood Steve. They knew what my experience was and what it wasn't. And I really believe there could have been a solution to keep me and Steve working together, because we were really good friends up until that point."
Jobs helped recruit Sculley to Apple from PepsiCo (PEP), and by all accounts the two had a marvelous relationship until their famous clashes in 1985. The duo ran in to trouble after the second-generation Mac, the Macintosh Office, was launched that year. That Mac was ridiculed as a toy, Sculley said. "It just couldn't do very much."
Jobs "went into a deep depression," Sculley said. He wanted to cut the price of the Mac and put more money into marketing the product. But Sculley disagreed, saying the move would risk throwing the company into a loss. Finally, Sculley told Jobs he would take the disagreement to the board.
Both men ended up presenting their cases, and the board sided with Sculley. "Steve didn't at that age know much about running companies," Sculley said. Jobs would soon leave the company after being forced out of his management role.
Sculley expressed regret about not bringing Jobs back. And in a display of humility that is unusual among most executives, he admitted to making mistakes in his relationship with Jobs.
"I feel most badly, though, [because] after 10 years, I was at the company, I wanted to go back to New York where I was from. Why I didn't go to Steve Jobs and say, 'Steve, let's figure out how you can come back and lead your company.' I didn't do that, it was a terrible mistake on my part. I can't figure out why I didn't have the wisdom to do that. But I didn't. And as life has it, shortly after that, I was fired."Jobs, for his part, has said that being fired from Apple was one of the best things that could have happened to him. Here are his comments from a 2005 commencement address at Stanford University:
"The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life." He also added, "I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful-tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it."There's much more in Sculley's talk, and Forbes has the entire video here.

Hang tight!
Recipe by Prov31woman
"I love breakfast casserole and was looking in the fridge for bread and breakfast meat to put in it. I pushed the pizza aside to realize I have no breakfast meats. Then it dawned on me... Can be assembled the night before and stored in the fridge until morning."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

cooking spray
3 slices
leftover pizza, cut into 3/4-inch squares
eggs, beaten
1 cup
1 (8 ounce) package
shredded mozzarella cheese
1/3 cup
chopped onion
3 tablespoons
butter, melted
1 clove
garlic, minced
1 teaspoon
dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon
1/4 cup
grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon
red pepper flakes, or to taste
The novelty of this recipe caught my eye and when we found ourselves w/leftover pizza, I decided to give this a whirl and give it a "face". I must preface this review by stressing our pizza was supreme pizza from a local pizzeria and was very flavorful, so plain cheese pizza would not have the same outcome. I followed the recipe to a "T", with the exception of skipping the onion since it was already on the pizza and using an 8X11 pan, as I don't own a 9X9. It was good, VERY rich (cheesy/buttery/greasy), but good. While I can't see myself making this again for the two of us, I could see making it if we had a party w/overnight guests w/whom we'd enjoyed some late night pizza for breakfast the next morning. THANKS for the recipe, Prov31woman!
I'll admit, I was very skeptical... Eggs, Pizza??? But decided to give it a try anyway. This was surprisingly delicious! Thanks for the recipe!!!

So I used a chicken cordon blue pizza as the leftover pizza, it was amazing. Used cheddar cheese as that is what I had in the house. It was a bit greasy so I think the next time I will cut back on the butter. I normally don't eat leftovers but this might make me rethink recreating them.
All in all the quality of the outcome depends on the quality of the pizza but with that said, with a really good pizza from our local pizza parlor this was good. Adaptable too, we had a supreme pizza so it was pretty tasty as pizza, but we still followed the recipe and used the onion plus a clove or chopped garlic. Now as for Scp024, why don't you just keep your opinion to yourself and not rate a recipe that you didn't even try. Your are entitled to your opinion but not the rating since you didn't even make it.
There are just the two of us. It is good, but now instead of leftover pizza, we have leftover pizza casserole !
This is a great dish created by a person who thinks outside the box. Can hardly wait to try it again.
So halve the cheese, skip the butter altogether, and use 'egg beaters' or 2 eggs, 2 egg whites if you're concerned about the fat and calories...still great taste and loads less fat! Great recipe, thanks.
I never thought of an idea like this before, but it's truly good, and kids enjoy it. A very creative way to re-purpose that leftover pizza. Thanks for sharing!

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

How do you follow Sir Alex Ferguson? He's an icon...
He is. He's a phenomenon, the like of which we'll never see again, in terms of what he's done for the club. I don't know what it was like in 1986 as I wasn't around but I have seen the major changes that have happened since I joined in 1997 and what he's achieved. But you don't follow it, like what we said in the statement, Alex and I tried to say that we knew this day would come. One day he would decide enough is enough, he'd say: "I've achieved it and I want to retire and do some other things in my life". Basically, we've been preparing for that in terms of the ability within the squad, the contract situation within the squad and the age of the squad. But also off the field, we've been making sure we're at the forefront of things. We've just announced a big new expanded facility at Carrington. We've got to look forward now and any new manager coming in will inherit a great squad and a great infrastructure off the pitch with great staff around him. I think the new person is walking into a difficult situation maybe in terms of the number of trophies but will also have the support of the Manchester United family and the squad to take that forward. It's a dream job, I think.
What is the timeframe on a replacement?
I'm not going to get into speculation on that because if we then put a deadline on it and that deadline passes... [people will jump to conclusions] but we will move relatively quickly. I'm not going to define how quickly that is.
What sort of manager are you looking for?
The qualities are the ones that have been inherent within Manchester United for many years. If you look at what has happened with the two most successful eras – Sir Matt Busby and Sir Alex – they are managers who got involved in the whole aspect of the club, whether it be from the youth team up to the first team. [He'll need] all aspects of it and that degree of loyalty and the understanding of the football club –

Alex (Gael Garcia Bernal) and Nica (Hani Furstenberg) are young, in love and engaged to be married. The summer before their wedding, they set off on a backpacking trip in the Caucasus Mountains in Georgia. In the first section of Julia Loktev's ("Day Night Day Night") tense, impeccably acted new feature, the filmmaker examines the couple's relationship with startling intimacy, chronicling the way they support and depend upon each other while making the arduous journey along with their enigmatic Georgian guide (Bidzina Gujabidze).
As the two marvel over the jaw-dropping beauty of the mountains, things seem magical. And then, in one single terrifying moment, a momentary misstep threatens to undo everything the couple believed about each other and about themselves. Unable to rely on one another, the wide-open wilderness suddenly seems to them completely remote—and darkly forbidding.

2011 Guide Analysis: "Julia Loktev ("Day Night Day Night") directs this independently financed US & German co-production based on a short story by Tim Bissell ("Frozen Planet," "Another Man's Son") and shot on location in Georgia. On the surface this doesn't seem that exciting, certainly it sounds like a slightly more thriller oriented version of the Armenia-set American indie film "HERE" also opening this year and about to get a big launch at Sundance.
Despite the leads being Mexican and Israeli, the film is in English and one description calls it a "chamber-piece set in a landscape that is both overwhelmingly open and frighteningly closed". Certainly the location filming should yield some beautiful scenery, it looks like it had access to the Ciscaucasus region in the north whereas "HERE" was confined to the Transcaucasus further south. Whether the film's narrative will be of any interest, we'll likely have to wait until a possible festival launch later in the year."

The members of the Alexandria Children, Youth and Families Collaborative Commission released the Children and Youth Master Plan, which was adopted by City Council on June 24, 2014 and by the ACPS School Board on May 17, 2014. An overview of the plan is also available. All residents and stakeholders are encouraged to attend. The Plan serves as the basis for the coordination, alignment and delivery of effective services for all city children and youth, from birth to 21 years-old, and their families. The Plan envisions a city where each program and initiative collaborates to improve outcomes in identified areas, while creating a culture of safety, social and civic engagement, and academic and vocational aspiration. The next phase will involve the development of an implementation plan.
The City Council established the Children, Youth and Families Collaborative Commission in June 2011, replacing the Early Childhood Commission and the Youth Policy Commission. The mission of the Children, Youth & Families Collaborative Commission (CYFCC) is to advocate for Alexandria's children and youth (prenatal to 21 years of age) and their families by advising the City Council, the School Board, and City and school staff on policies that affect children, youth and their families; promoting the coordination, alignment and effectiveness of services provided to children, youth and their families by the City, Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) and private organizations; and studying and promoting research and best practices. Its functions and duties are to:
It is the intent of the City Council and School Board that any entity receiving City funding or using other City resources (including staff support or in-kind City space) will collaborate and coordinate with CYFCC in the development and implementation of a comprehensive, citywide youth development agenda.
CYFCC is comprised of 29 community leaders and key staff of the City of Alexandria and Alexandria City Public Schools – 25 voting members and four non-voting members. Seventeen of the voting members are residents, four are city staff members, and four are staff members of Alexandria City Public Schools; the term of service is three years. In addition, CYFCC has seven committees comprised of commission members who serve as leaders and officers of each committee, and members of the community at large with a demonstrated interest in issues involving children, youth and families. The committees are the Executive Committee; Advocacy and Policy Committee; Finance and Grants Committee; Outreach and Membership Committee; Research and Data Committee; Implementation and Monitoring Committee; and Youth Council. Those wishing to serve on a CYFCC committee should submit an application.
The merger of youth-serving commissions is just one tribute to a longstanding commitment by the City to ensure all children thrive. Youth-serving departments were merged and roughly one-third (1/3) of the City's General Funds is allocated to youth services and programming. The City of Alexandria has been honored five times by America's Promise as one of the 100 Best Communities for Young People. The next horizon is the development of a youth master plan, a process that will document the needs of the City's youth, prioritize objectives, and devise strategies.
The children and youth master plan sets long-term, community-wide priorities for young people as well as identify specific action steps. The goal is to ensure that all children and youth are healthy and safe, academically and vocationally prepared, and socially and civically connected. This required the input of diverse sectors of the community. All residents and stakeholders were encouraged to participate in the plan development process, including youth, parents and non-parents, youth-serving professionals, businesses, community groups and faith-based organizations.
After a competitive bidding process, the Forum for Youth Investment was selected as the consultant to guide the children and youth master plan process. The Forum's expertise in youth development and experience with youth master plans is summarized in its Annual Report. The September 2012 CYFCC meeting featured a presentation by Forum that was an overview of the processes and strategies that will be used to formulate a youth master plan for the City of Alexandria. An update of the planning process was presented at the May 2013 CYFCC meeting.
Thirty-five community leaders serve as the Design Team, which leads the development of the youth master plan. Three community forums afforded residents of all ages and all walks of life the opportunity to share their thoughts on the content and priorities of the youth master plan. Press coverage of the forums includes:
Citizens Help to Build a Youth Master Plan
Adopting a Youthful Strategy
An overview of the forums summarizes community representation, the indicators selected by those in attendance as those most critical to youth well-being, and emerging themes. Forums for middle and high school students of Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) were held in May. An overview for each forum is listed below:

Once upon a time, I dreamt of kills
Chasing blood running with chills
Learned of ways to gain new skills
My life now, has its unending thrills.
This passion of mine for fearful souls
To dig them quietly beneath each holes
To satisfy this thirst, I set my ungraceful goals
To cage of each anew mortal roles.
And not a decade long, I want more
But where to set my another chore
A question that made me think once more
Of hearts and souls I have made soar.
And murder me not, I prayed silently
Undo thy craving pains of so violently
Where has mercy gone in these flying years?
Why show me a side of no fears?

Krakow (Cracow) is an amazing city in the Malopolskie region of Poland, whose stunning mix of history, architecture, entertainment and nightlife have made Krakow city breaks the most popular in Europe. The capital of Poland for centuries, Krakow is awash with unique historical relics, artistic masterpieces and cultural centres, meaning that people of all ages, nationalities and interests flock to Krakow accommodation to revel in the unrivalled entertainment possibilities of Krakow, Poland.
There are so many astonishing buildings to be seen on a Krakow city break that it would be impossible to mention all of Krakow's things of interest on offer. Walking from your Krakow apartment towards the centre of town is an experience in itself. The best option is to find the Krakow tourist information centre from which guides to the main attractions are available. The Wawel Royal Castle, St Mary's Basilica and the Jewish City of Kazimierz are some of the most impressive places to visit from a Krakow holiday apartment, but each visitor must find their own itinerary as there are an estimated 6,000 buildings an monuments of historical importance and over 2.5 million artefacts throughout the many museums and churches of Krakow.
One of the finest ways to get an idea of the city from your self catering Krakow holiday rental is to take to the River Vistula. There are a range of guided trips to be done, but almost the best way to do it is by renting a kayak or small motor boat, letting you see Krakow things which would not be noticeable from a Krakow tour on land.
Krakow city breaks are fantastic for Polish gastronomic holidays. There are a huge wealth of bars, restaurants, cafes and inns throughout the city, meaning that not only can you discover the culinary delights of Poland with ease, but also the fantastic Krakow nightlife which has attracted many young visitors to Krakow accommodation over the past decade. Krakow nightlife is great for any taste, as there are numerous traditional inns, traditional music venues and folklore events throughout the city, as well as lively dance music venues.
Accommodation in Krakow is the perfect base for exploration of the wild Carpathian Mountains of Malopolskie. Soaring dramatically into the sky, the Carpathian Mountains offer a natural playground for adrenaline junkies and nature lovers alike. During the summer months, walkers, climbers and para-gliders flock to apartments in Krakow and in winter, snow sports become serious business.
The temperate climate of Krakow means that conditions can change quickly, so a good jacket is a good idea whenever you visit Krakow accommodation. Annual average temperatures are only around 8?C, although in the summer months (July and August) daily temperatures can reach up to 30?C. In the winter, temperatures for a Krakow holidays can be very cold, often around 0?C.
Flights to Krakow are easily found from the UK. There are a range of airlines operating from the UK that provide cheap flights to Krakow Airport (KRK) which is located just 11km from the city centre. Although there is no need to rent a hire car on a Krakow holiday as transport networks in the Polish city are excellent, there are a range of companies offering car hire in Krakow airport.

World Wetlands Day 2005 -- USA
U.S. Department of State
Office of the Spokesman
Washington, DC
January 31, 2005
World Wetlands Day
On February 2, 2004, United States Embassies from South America to the Middle East will join their local communities to commemorate World Wetlands Day, an annual celebration of the vital importance of wetlands to the world's ecological health and of efforts to conserve these invaluable habitats. The day marks the anniversary of the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, signed February 2, 1971 in Ramsar, Iran.
This year's theme, "There's wealth in wetland diversity --- don't lose it," emphasizes the biological and cultural diversity of wetlands and their important role in sustaining people physically and emotionally. Wetlands are a source of water, food, recreation, transportation, and, in some places, are part of the local religious and cultural heritage. They provide groundwater replenishment, benefiting inhabitants of entire watersheds.
Wetlands play a vital role in storm and flood protection and water filtration. In addition, they provide a rich feeding ground for migratory birds, fish, and other animals and boost local economies through opportunities for the harvesting of aquatic resources and ecotourism.
Despite the great value of wetlands, they have been shrinking worldwide, including in the United States. In 1987 the United States joined the Ramsar Convention, an international treaty that aims to halt the worldwide loss of wetlands and to conserve those that remain. The treaty's 144 Contracting Parties have designated 1,404 wetlands sites totaling more than 300 million acres for inclusion in the Ramsar List of Wetlands of International Importance. Most recently, on Earth Day 2004, President Bush announced an aggressive new national initiative to move beyond a policy of "no net loss" of wetlands to an overall increase of wetlands in America. The President's goal is to create, improve, and protect at least three million wetland acres over the next five years in order to increase overall wetland acreage and quality.
The United States designated three new Ramsar sites last month: the 2500-acre Tijuana River National Estuarine Research Reserve in San Diego County, CA; the 160,000-acre Grassland Ecological Area in western Merced County, CA; and the 1000-acre Kawainui and Hamakua Marsh Complex located on the northeast coast of the island of Oahu, HI. That brings the total number of U.S. Ramsar sites to 22, covering nearly 3.2 million acres.
For further information, visit the State Department's Bureau of Oceans, Environment and Science website at: http://www.state.gov/g/oes and the Ramsar website at: http://ramsar.org.

Staff here was definitely 5 stars. Very friendly and helpful, positive vibe and easy to work with. The room was perfect had everything we needed for a one night stay, I feel as though if we were staying longer it would have been nice to have a real kitchenette not just a microwave, but to each their own.

We spent our honeymoon in Kauai and split our time 50/50 between the north and south shores. On the north shore we stayed in Hanalei Bay Resort Condo 7201, and it was exactly what we expected based on the pictures online. The view is amazing and the location within the resort is wonderful because you are tucked away in a quiet corner. On the negative side, I would describe the room as tidy, but not necessarily fresh or pampered. The carpet is a bit old/musty, and the bedding/towels had some bleach stains from washing. That said, we loved our stay!

I loved the condo as it had the perfect view of the sunrise and sunset each morning. The location of the condo was private as it was a corner unit and there were no buildings infront of us. Considering there was no full kitchen we had all the essential kitchen supplies to make us breakfast or to warm something up for a simple meal to be enjoyed on the lanai. My only recommendation is to have tile or industrial carpet down on the entrance, somewhere to put our shoes. I have stayed at the hanalei bay before but this condo was much nicer with the beautiful countertops and newer TV.

We are delighted you enjoyed unit 7201. Every adjoining unit has two doors that close against one another. The door on your side has a doorknob only on your side, so once closed no one can open it from the other side. The same is true for the door that closes against it but opens from the adjoining unit. I believe the door on your own side was open as the other guests would not have been able to open it. In future please rest assured you can close the door on your own side and others will not have access to your unit.

A long article in the current issue of the liberal opinion journal The Nation reflects on the attempted Wal-Mart mass strikes on the day after Thanksgiving. The article tries to play them up as a big success despite the fact that the number of the retailer's employees that actually took part in the United Food and Commercial Workers-organized event was negligible.
The Nation article is notable for two reasons. First, it concedes that two earlier union-funded efforts to bring the non-union retailer to heel, UFCW's Wake-Up Wal-Mart and the Service Employees International Union's Wal-Mart Watch, largely "fizzled" despite a big media push in 2008. Second, it reports that Big Labor's new tactic against Wal-Mart will be to hit its supply chain:
Two strengths have set the current campaign apart from previous efforts: intensive leadership development in individual stores, and organizing throughout the supply chain. Social media have played a role, helping to spread the strikes to previously untouched stores. But organizers note that given the serious risks involved, workers were much more likely to turn out in stores where co-workers had already spent months pushing them and confronting the boss.
Meanwhile, although the sight of retail employees on strike has drawn the greatest public attention, it is the workers in Walmart's supply chain who have scored the biggest victories. Strikers at the corporation's distribution center in Elwood, Illinois, which handles the majority of its imports, won the reinstatement of four fired workers and full back pay for their three weeks on strike. A top Walmart official met with a few warehouse workers from California and Illinois, an opportunity the company has been loath to extend to retail workers. And the lead organizer for the National Guestworker Alliance, a group a Walmart spokesperson dismissed this past summer as a union front, says Walmart has reached out about scheduling a meeting.
These concessions demonstrate Walmart's increased willingness to meet with workers it claims are not its employees. They also reflect the disproportionate power such workers have to disrupt Walmart's business.

Apple stock may be worth $1,000 to Peter Lynch
How much would the investment guru pay for the tech giant?
Legendary mutual fund manager Peter Lynch made his fame by generating outsized returns investing in growth companies. He is willing to pay up for faster-growing companies. He famously said that he would rather pay a price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of 20 for companies that grow 20% than a P/E of 10 for companies that grow at 10% a year.
This brings us to the concept that we call "Peter Lynch Fair Value" in our valuation box.
In determining the fair value of companies, Lynch uses a rule of thumb which says that the fair P/E of growth companies is equal to its earnings growth rate. Lynch is willing to buy a growth company at a P/E multiple that is equal to its growth rate (G). Therefore, to Lynch, at fair value, the PEG ratio of a growth company should be 1.
Because of this, the calculation of Peter Lynch Fair Value is very straightforward. It simply equals to the growth rate multiplied by its earnings. That is:
Peter Lynch Fair Value = Earnings Growth Rate X Earnings.
Therefore, if a company grows its earnings 20% a year, according to Lynch, its fair valuation is 20 times its earnings.
So how much is Lynch willing to pay for Apple (AAPL) shares?
Apple has been able to grow its earnings per share at more than 60% a year, which is the result of tremendous revenue growth and margin expansion.
Apple earned more than $40 a share for the trailing twelve months. If Apple is worth a P/E of its growth rate of 60, the stock would be worth more than $2,400 a share. Of course, Lynch would only be willing to pay a P/E of 20 for the companies that grow faster than 20% a year. In this case, Apple shares would be worth about $1,000 a share to Lynch. Apple is now traded at around $660 a share, suggesting a 33% discount to Peter Lynch.
Apple stock has always traded at a discount compared with this fair value, but it did follow the trend in this chart. We don't know if Lynch owns Apple in his personal portfolio, but it is indeed a popular stock among the hedge fund gurus we track. Owning this stock has definitely been rewarding.

Understanding the exact nature of the security of your servers and their network environments can be a long and involved process. This can be even more complicated when your IT infrastructure has evolved over many years.
The NSMS team offers an audit service for individual hosts, which provides a report listing potential vulnerabilities and areas of concern. While these audits are usually carried out on file servers (Windows, MacOS, and Linux are covered), they could also be applied to workstations, firewalls, or any networked device of your choice.
A typical subset of issues considered in an audit would include password security, server accessibility and visibility, file and directory permissions, and the security of services running on the server. However the checks will be tailored to the host being audited.
The final results will be presented in a report, which will help you to understand the strengths and weaknesses of your network and will contain a prioritised list of recommendations for issues requiring attention. Further action to implement these recommendations can also be carried out by the NSMS team.
