Operation Blessing's vice president of international operations, David Darg, is on the ground in the Kurdistan region aiding Christians and other Iraqi minorities fleeing ISIS.
ERBIL, Kurdistan – Outside of her dusty tent—in a camp of 2,000 displaced Christians—a mother stared upwards at a cross, her face illuminated by the flicker of colored lights.
Miriam had found the piece of Styrofoam packaging in the trash, the arms were a little short, but it was as close to a cross as she could hope to find. It looked as though it could have been packaging from a DVD player, the lights were crudely taped around the edges and it was fixed to a pole by some rusty wire.

Use this dialog to define the set of standard properties (standard metadata included in most Web pages) and any custom information required for pages at your site.
The Create New Page dialog often includes two tabs, as shown in the following example. Note that the Create New Page dialog layout is fully customizable by site administrators or template designers who define which fields display, whether they are required or optional, and whether they display on the Main or Other tab.
The example below shows a Create New Page dialog with nine fields on the Main tab. The optional Keywords field displays on the Other tab, as shown in the second image. Your organization may opt not to use the Other tab, or distribute a different set of fields between the Main tab and Other tab. At a minimum, creating new pages generally requires entering standard metadata (page name, title, publication date, and description) and often includes additional specific information in the form of Custom Properties (or custom metadata) for categorization, display, or other applications.
Main Tab
The Main Tab typically collects standard page information. Name and Title are often required. Click the yellow down arrow to pre-fill the next field with the current field value.
Mouseover to view larger
CommonSpot uses the text entered in the Name field to generate the page URL. Each page within CommonSpot has a separate, distinct and addressable URL, for easy bookmarking and direct navigation. Spaces and other punctuation are converted to underscores when generating the full URL name. Pages within CommonSpot have a .cfm extension by default. Administrators can optionally set a maximum length for this field, or require the name to be entered in only lowercase letters.
Title: text displays as the page title. Text entered here displays within the breadcrumb trail and Page Index Elements. Administrators can set a maximum length for this field.
Title Bar Caption: is the title that will appear in the browser's caption bar.
Description: provides a brief summary of page content.
If enabled, you can assign a Category to the page, or, with subsite-level permissions for creating categories, you can click New to create a category for the new page; otherwise, Administrators set categories.
Note: The Category field may also appear if your site uses CommonSpot's Static Content Generation feature. This option extends CommonSpot's scalability and performance by separating the processes for handling dynamic and static content to serve content more cost effectively, with better performance from one or more standard HTTP servers.
If this feature is enabled, auto-detect settings are generally appropriate.
Publication Date gives you the option of scheduling the release of a page at a future date and time. Click the calendar icon to open the Date/Time Selection Control.
Confidentiality – If enabled for your site, displays a dropdown list of options for setting the confidentiality level of the page. Select the appropriate option. This option is commonly a feature for corporate intranet publishing.
Include In enables you to specify whether the page appears in CommonSpot index mechanisms. Pages excluded from these indexes do not show up in Page Index or Search Elements or in full-text searches initiated by site visitors. Check or uncheck an option to include/exclude this page from the results sets produced by these functions.
Expiration indicates when and whether this page expires.
Expiration alerts users to the currency of a given page. Selecting Expire content on a specific date displays expiration options for this page content, as shown above.
With the proper permissions, optionally specify an expiration date, a specific expiration time, as well as the action to take when the page expires. (Administrator privileges for pages are controlled by default page-level security options for the designated site within the CommonSpot Administrator. See Content Security Permissions in the CommonSpot Administrator's Reference.)
Click the calendar icon to open the Date/Time Selection Control and select a date/time for either expiring content or receiving a prompt to check content freshness. You can specify both a date and time for expiring pages and uploaded documents.
Choose an action to take at expiration, to proactively inform or redirect users when information is no longer current:. The arrival of the expiration date triggers the preset action requested:
You have the option of not triggering any action when this page expires by choosing No Action.
Choosing Warn of Expiration displays a dialog box on page load, indicating that the page has expired.
Setting Deny Access to General Public or Deny Access to All prevents site users and CommonSpot contributors, respectively, from accessing the page upon expiration. Deny Access to All maintains administrative access to the page, with the option of using the Calendar Control for resetting the expiration date, as shown below.
Mouseover to view larger
All other users see a message like the following:
Selecting Redirect to Another Page/URL displays the Redirect URL field for entering or choosing a URL to display to users when this page expires.
Other Tab
Administrators and designers control which fields and options display on this tab. In this example, Keywords is the only option. Add keywords to help future users leverage information the page contains and to improve both internal and external search results and ranking. CommonSpot automatically generates meta-tags for entries in the Keywords and Descriptions fields for use by CommonSpot's internal search engine, as well as Internet search engines.
This field may be pre-populated with a set of modifiable default keywords defined for your site. Optionally change or remove these, or use the Select Keywords button to choose from other previously defined keywords, view any enforced keywords, or enter new keyword terms.
Complete all the fields in the Create New Page dialog and click Next to display any required Custom Properties, or Save to complete page creation. Custom Properties collects additional, specific information for this page, for custom views or output.

Selective Reduction: A Painful Choice
No Options Discussed
After trying to have a baby for five years, Los Angeles' Patty Shier found herself in a similar situation but made the opposite choice. Shier was told she was pregnant with five fetuses following the last of four in vitro fertilization attempts. A devout Christian, Shier said she told her doctor from the beginning that no matter what happened, there was no way she was going to reduce a pregnancy. Nonetheless, the doctor transferred seven embryos into her uterus telling her the chances of a higher order multiple pregnancy "were not good."
Following her first ultrasound, Shier said her doctor was insistent that she'd never make it through the pregnancy and would never have any babies if she didn't reduce. "There was no objective discussion of the options," Shier said, adding that she was never presented with mortality or birth defect statistics, phone numbers for organizations specializing in higher order multiples, or any offers of counseling. She and her husband pored over the studies, spoke with doctors, and consulted the MOST organization on their own. The only word she kept hearing over and over again from her doctor was "reduce." "It's just a very hard thing to hear," Shier said of her doctor's warning.
Despite the risks of a loss of all the babies or of having sick children, Shier went ahead with the pregnancy. She was bed rested at 18 weeks, moved to the hospital at 27 weeks and gave birth to what she called "the healthiest quints in the country" at 33 weeks. They ranged in weight from 3 pounds 5 ounces, to 4 pounds 5 ounces. Within four weeks, they were all sent home from the hospital. "I didn't have to live with the question of whether I should or shouldn't have," Shier said.
Michigan's Sue Treber, mother of three-year-old quads, echoed Shier's sentiments. A series of doctors doggedly tried to persuade her to reduce her quadruplet pregnancy, after years of infertility treatment, including one specialist in pregnancy reduction whom she called "overbearing" and who "made me feel foolish," she said. Then Treber tracked down perinatalogists who had success with quad pregnancies, consulted some multiples support groups, and decided to go for it. "If we had listened to what the majority of the doctors say, we wouldn't have them," she said of her quads. "I don't think enough doctors give women the feeling that they have a choice."

By Geoffrey Golden . April 29, 2009 . 10:06am
At the LA Games Conference 2009, industry experts agreed that game reviews from magazines are not nearly as important to potential consumers as other factors.
Nick Williams, from the industry research firm OTX GamePlan, gave the example of MadWorld for the Wii. IGN gave it a 9.0 and its Metacritic score was 82 — they thought the game was going to take off, but Madworld only sold 66,000 copies in the US. It turns out, only 8% of the Wii market had even heard of MadWorld.
Ethan Titelman, from the market research firm Penn, Schoen & Berland, believes that critical reviews won't change gamers minds. If a gamer thinks the game is great, and they read bad reviews, it won't necessarily stop them from purchasing. Unlike film reviews to movie goers, Metacritic scores don't hold as much weight with Joe Gamer. He claims a concept with mass appeal is far more important, along with a strong marketing strategy. Whereas movies typically spend 1/3 of their budget on advertising, games only spend 1/6th on average.
How important are game reviews to you? Do they effect your purchases?

At least in the moist wind
through the passing seasons, wanting to love

It's obvious, but there's no generation that notices it

It's obvious, but it wants to be known

It's obvious, but it wants to be noticed

New Bedford student finds worm-like creature in school lunch
A New Bedford High School student got a surprise on Wednesday when she found a worm-like creature in her school lunch.
"It blended in," New Bedford High School student Ereyana Silveira told the New Bedford Standard Times, describing it as "off-white" and "nasty."
The creature was in a serving of brown rice, and appeared to still be alive, said Silveira, a junior at the school.
"It was on my fork and it was moving a little bit," she said.
A health department investigation was subsequently launched, and School Business Manager Patrick Murphy told the Times that the situation was an "isolated incident."
"What is clear is that it was not a maggot," Murphy said. "There is no infestation of bugs or maggots."

Which War?Posted by Rodney Lister in Uncategorized
It is dreadful
to shed blood.
It is hard
to learn to kill.
It is wretched seeing people die,
before their time has come.
But we must learn to kill!
But we must see people die
before their time has come!
But we must shed blood,
so that no more, no more blood shall be shed.
Bertold Brecht, translated by Mari Prockauskas

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida Gov. Rick Scott is reappointing two current members of the Public Service Commission to new terms.
Scott on Friday announced he was reappointing both Art Graham and Ronald Brise to four year terms starting in January.
The five-member commission regulates investor-owned electric, natural gas and water utilities.
Graham is a former Jacksonville Beach city councilman who was first appointed by former Gov. Charlie Crist. Brise, who is the current chairman, is a former legislator who was appointed by Crist as well.
Graham back in 2011 pushed for the resignation of the PSC's executive director. Media reports at the time contended Graham made the move at the urging of lobbyists representing Florida Power & Light.
Those who are appointed to the PSC are paid $130,036 a year

Offering the only major of its kind in Hong Kong today, the Department of Asian and International Studies meets an urgent need for the city-state and its university students. Put simply, AIS is nurturing the next generation of experts in Asia and its place in the world. Using the tools of comparative politics, sociology, international political economy, and anthropology, AIS takes cross-disciplinary approaches to key questions about political change, international trade and security, global governance, migration and cities, development, the environment, and social and cultural forces.
Further, with its ideal positioning at City University of Hong Kong, AIS begins by addressing these questions in China and other countries in East Asia. But it also examines the fast-growing connections between East Asia and other regions in the developing world, especially India, South America, and, it is envisioned, Sub-Saharan Africa.

Seven levels of Angels: 'It's a grind,' even for Mike Trout
By Kurt Kragthorpe
The Salt Lake TribuneFirst published Jul 13 2013 07:25PM
San Bernardino, Calif. • As the Inland Empire 66ers rallied during a lengthy eighth inning last Sunday, two staff members walked through the stands behind home plate, proudly carrying a 25-pound cupcake.
Clearly, this was a job for Kobayashi.
This tour of the Los Angeles Angels' farm system had begun at Spring Mobile Ballpark, where the Salt Lake Bees hired the renowned competitive eater for a promotional contest. And now, in the 90-degree heat of a southern California evening, the 66ers employees are hoping the bottom of the eighth will end soon enough for them to declare a winner of the game-day sponsor's raffle prize — before it melts.
Minor league baseball is all about food, marketing and competition. The players climb through a series of levels in a quest of attrition — only about 10 percent will play in the major leagues — while the various teams they're assigned to around the country do everything they can to attract fans and maintain a thriving business.
"You're literally fighting over people's attention," said 66ers general manager Joe Hudson, who formerly worked for the Utah Grizzlies hockey team.
Minor league baseball's 160 teams have combined to draw at least 41.2 million fans for eight straight years, annually more than the NFL and the NBA combined. The industry overall is "a stable operation," said Bees GM Marc Amicone. "Everybody at every level makes a real effort to be a good business."
But it's not easy. Located roughly 50 miles from Angels Stadium in Anaheim, the 66ers compete for fans with their own parent club. Part of their strategy is to emphasize those ties. That explains next month's promotional giveaway of the Kole Calhoun Garden Gnome, celebrating the Inland Empire era of the outfielder who eventually joined the Angels (he's now with the Bees).
Recalling his initial thought upon learning of the 66ers' scheme, Calhoun said, "Are you kidding me? OK, it could be cool, but I mean, a garden gnome?"
Hey, whatever it takes. The players understand the promotional efforts, because they're similarly trying to distinguish themselves, hoping they can move up steadily in the organization.
"It's a grind, it's difficult," said Bobby Scales, the Angels' director of player development. "This might sound crazy, but even for guys like Mike Trout, it's difficult. On a daily basis, you have situations that arise that test how much you want to play this game."
Trout wouldn't disagree. The day he was named to start in the Major League All-Star Game, Trout stood in the dugout of Angels Stadium and both cringed and smiled about the memory of launching his career in the Arizona League only four years ago. At 17, he played front of maybe a couple of dozen fans (even with free admission) nightly, with game-time temperatures of 115 degrees or higher.
"It's a lot better up here, obviously," he said.
So they play on, hoping someday to find work in the big leagues with a minimum annual salary of $490,000, in contrast to seasonal wages of about $1,000 a month in the minors. Money is among the reasons they persevere through the system with no guarantees, even for highly drafted players.
As Scales said, "It's not for everybody."
Minor league franchises pitch the exact opposite theme. They market affordable family entertainment and an experience beyond "just the standard baseball game," Hudson said.
Even so, this tour produced notable stuff on the field, at every stop. The night Kobayashi ate 13 hot dogs in 60 seconds in Salt Lake City, the wonderfully named Tommy Field gobbled up ground balls with several spectacular plays at second base. In Burlington, Iowa, two hometown Bees lacked baserunning smarts, enabling Peoria third baseman Patrick Wisdom to make an unassisted double play — even with no force-out, after fielding a grounder.
Cal Towey walked five times in a game in Orem, accounting for 450 feet of advancement. Ex-University of Utah star C.J. Cron of the Arkansas Travelers smoked a line drive that maintained its trajectory until hitting a fence next to the scoreboard, 420 feet from home plate. In Arizona, left-handed pitcher Kyle Hunter picked off three baserunners. Andy Workman ran down fly balls from consecutive batters on the warning track in center field in San Bernardino.
And in Anaheim, the Angels rallied to tie Boston with four runs in the ninth inning, before winning in the 11th on Josh Hamilton's two-run homer.
These, then, are the tour's lessons: Expect something memorable to happen, and stick with it to the end. That's what the Angels' players at every level are doing, until they're told otherwise.

FRANKFORT, KY (WAVE) - Kentucky's education commissioner and the head of the Jefferson County Teachers' Association support different snow makeup day bills in the General Assembly -- and the final product could be a mix between the two.
Brent McKim, JCTA's president, endorsed the House's version, which would automatically give up to 10 waiver days for any district that applied. Education Commissioner Terry Holliday said a Senate plan that required districts make up all of the required hours provided more accountability.
The Senate on Thursday refused to back down from its snow makeup day legislation. House and Senate leaders said they were gathering members for a conference committee to work out the differences between the chambers' bills.
"I think the best proposal short-term," Stumbo said, "is maybe doing our approach now, and then putting in something more definitive, as the Senate wants, for the future."
House members have argued that their bill would give local superintendents quick relief and the most control over their school calendars.
Meanwhile, the Senate's bill would allow superintendents to re-work school schedules as long as they achieve 1,062 hours by the end of the school year. Districts that can't would be able to apply for a hardship waiver, but Holliday could deny the request under the Senate measure.
"The problem is, if they don't hurry up and do something, it won't matter," Holliday said. "Time is running out."
McKim said JTCA members would prefer a blanket waiver, giving Jefferson County Public Schools the ability to waive up to 10 days. The district has missed 11 days because of snow and ice, and has made up five of the days.
Holliday said districts like JCPS should make up their snow days because every lost instructional day hurts student test scores and costs taxpayers $17 million statewide.
"This time next year, no one will remember that we had all these snow days," Holliday said. "They'll just see that schools aren't performing well, and it has a lot to do with the instructional time."
Some districts in Eastern Kentucky have missed up to 34 days of school this year.

Arizona Wildcats
Foles rallies Eagles to end 8-game losing skip
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) � Nick Foles threw a pair of touchdown passes in the final four minutes, including a 1-yarder to Jeremy Maclin with no time remaining Sunday as Philadelphia rallied to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 23-21 and end an eight-game losing streak � the Eagles' longest in 42 years.
Foles completed 32 of 51 passes for 381 yards in his fourth start in place of the injured Michael Vick. The rookie threw an 11-yard TD pass to Clay Harbor with 3:55 remaining, then led the Eagles on a 64-yard game-winning drive after the Philadelphia defense forced a Tampa Bay punt.
Doug Martin rushed for 128 yards and Josh Freeman shrugged off a slow start to throw for two second-half touchdowns to help Tampa Bay overcome a 10-0 halftime deficit and take a 21-10 lead on Martin's 4-yard TD run midway through the fourth quarter.
That's when Foles, who also scored on a 10-yard run in the first half, took over.

I think UDAP is the best spray for Northern Rockies bear protection. Although I've never had to use it personally there are many reports of its effectiveness. Sportsmans Guide has both a great price and spray with a valuable 2017 expiration date.

Facebook IPO: Sizzle vs. Fizzle
Many had high hopes for the Facebook IPO, but currently the new public company is not reaching expectations. Numerous opinions have been created about the IPO, including something the Huffington Post refers to as the "sizzle" and "fizzle."
Those who believe the Facebook IPO has created a valuation of $104 billion for the company, made Zuckerberg a multi-billionaire, and gave the bankers what they wanted are considered the "sizzle." Those who think the IPO was a total bust, was not priced right, and is down 12% are considered the "fizzle."
Facebook was the first social network to go public, and many believe it set the tone for other social media sites. So if Facebook IPO continues to "sizzle" and "fizzle," will other social sites follow suit?

Can we think without any presumptions?

Feb 17 2013: No, we are not. We all live in this planet where the people are made of other people but don't like to admit that. But leaving that for other talk, I must say that most of the people cannot think without see the good side for them and we many times judge the other just thinking in what we think that it is right or wrong and shouldn't do that because we can all be human beings but no one has a life as the life of the other so we never have the right of judge when we don't know what is behind... The big problem is that some times, (to many times i think), i are not abble to see and note that.

A word from Bartolotta Ristorante Di Mare - Wynn Las Vegas
Two-time James Beard Award-honored chef Paul Bartolotta has been making waves with the authentic Italian seafood cookery showcased at his namesake ristorante at Wynn. His exhuberant cuisine is based on simplicity. taking top quality seafood, and with few ingredients and a minimum of technique, turning it into stellar, rustic presentations as delicious as those you might experience on the coastline of Italy. Fresh fish and shellfish – including live langostinos flown in daily from Mediterranean waters, are the star attraction here, sharing the bill of fare with housemade pastas. The chef's signature Dona di Mare (Gifts of the Sea) tasting menu is a superb way to savor the ultimate coastal dining experience. The two-story space, replete with sweeping staircase and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a shimmering laguna, is big on drama. Reservations are accepted on-line for indoor dining only. Requests for seasonal outdoor cabana dining are handled by phone only.Continued

- Exelent experienceDiclVIPDined on 9/28/2014Exelent food, service one of my fav rest in. VegasSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Restaurant in VegasLuvRetirementVIPDined on 9/26/2014This is our second time at Bartolotta. Our first experience was wonderful, this time was fantastic! The wine list is extensive and the fish is fresh and perfectly prepared. The best part was - they have white truffles! so of course we had to have creamy pasta with white truffles... A perfect meal!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice ambiance, good foodEllaDined on 9/24/2014They just forgot to give us the candles to the birthday cake.Special Features:
- World Class MealDivedocDined on 9/23/2014My wife and I had the family style tasting menu that was simply magnificent. We both had wonderful Bellini's to start and then a single vineyard Brunello from their extensive wine list populated with great Italian selections. The service was world class. We have dined in many top restaurants in Italy from La Pergola to Enoteca Pinchiorri and Bertolotta is right there with them.Special Features:
- Not ImpressedChelMatPhlDiDined on 9/21/2014The outdoor setting is beautiful, we were touched with the acknowledgment of our evening, and our server was great. Other than that we really do not understand what Eater 38, James Beard and Andrew Zimmer love about this place. Over priced, over pretentious. over noised with different music/sounds every thirty minutes, and an over blown reputation. Food was lacking flavor,wine Somalia was lackluster, and was truly nothing special. In contrast, the experience at Giada's at the Cromwell was AMAZING and every detail, service, food, flavor, wine Somalias you name it was impeccable and bursting with taste/class! This restaurant was nothing to write home about except an $850 bill. It was just a meal, which is so disappointing to write.Special Features:
- Outstanding SeafoodYumYumDined on 9/19/2014The drinks at bar were a nice introduction to a lovely dining experience in an outdoor cabana. Seafood was top notch.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Must tryLocalsDined on 9/18/2014This place is a mush try if you love seafood. The food is incredible! We really enjoyed our dinner and the service was great. However, for the price I expected a bit more presentation and frankly it just wasn't there. It started off well when they came over with the seafood cart presenting their flown in daily specials, but that is where the presentation ended.Special Features:
- Good food but crazy expensivemeghbinnycDined on 9/16/2014As self proclaimed NY foodies we found the food here excellent. However, the price point is over the top. $80 pp to split a piece of fish. Why? Because the charge you by the once for the whole fish, before it's deboned or in any way prepared from its original form from the sea. We shares a salad, pasta appetizer ( so small it was perhaps 3 forkfuls each) and the fish. More than enough food but more expensive than the finest NY restaurants. ( per se, le bernadin, Danielle's). Equal quality food can be found elsewhere for less.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wynn /BartolottajdfoodieDined on 9/15/2014This was the 3rd time we dined at Bartolotta and unfortunately this experience did not compare to the first two. We were disappointed with the fish (bronzino) and the service seemed less than one might expect.
- A true Italian ExperienceJoeBDined on 9/13/2014Like being on the "Costa Amalfitana" Bartolotta offers the same mirroring experience, with a great selection of quality produce and an incredable staff making this place a must see in "Fabulous Las Vegas". Thanking personally for their great efforts : Eduardo & staff as well as Sergio for his undistinguishable gratitude!

- Magnifico!TourDirectorFoodiEDined on 9/10/2014Seriously the best Italian in all of Las Vegas. I used to think RAO's was the best but Bartolotta takes the prize. And of course the service was impeccable. For my dinner guest, it was their first time at a restaurant of this caliber and they were blown away by the service and the attention to detail. The decor is average for such a high-end restaurant, but you are not there for decor you are there to experience the culinary majesty that is Bartolotta's mastery of simple Italian cooking and the superiority of the Mediterranean's bounty. Fish I have never heard of before and preparations I have never tasted (The Octopus was so amazing; I have never had that kind of texture or substance from octopus or squid before) Simply Unforgettable!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Food not excitingRadmanDined on 9/4/2014Very nice place, great service - however food was not very good - every person thought their fish was dry and not very exciting, in addtioin there were bones left in the table side food prep, it appeared they folks didnt know what they were doing. Not worth the price for food; it is all about paying for where you are at...BTW dont wear shorts - person in our party had on very nice dress shorts, they made him put pants on. Real turn off.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/2/2014This is the second time I've eaten here. Food is great, expensive but so worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- one of the bestVincenzoDined on 9/2/2014The very fact that this restaurant is rated as one of the best in the USA should be enough but the experience is truly awesome. Fresh Mediterranean seafood everyday is really a special treat. It's pricey but not for what you are getting. Service, food, and ambiance are extraordinary.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful DinnerLuvRetirementVIPDined on 9/1/2014We were so happy to find this wonderful restaurant! Theirry was a very knowledgable server (both food and wine). We ordered the whole fish (Brazino) which was perfect for 2. The Chablis was perfect with the meal. Be forewarned - Men must wear long pants - If you wear shorts, they will loan you a pair. We have now added this restaurant to our "Must Do" when in Vegas. Was too hot to sit outside, and our table was perfect by the window.Special Features:
- Pasadenafoodie1VIPDined on 8/30/2014Never had better Italian seafood in my life! Service was impeccable. Fresh seafood flown in from Mediterranean daily and they display it to u in a case, on ice, to make your selection. A memorable experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always amazing.DesiDined on 8/29/2014We were her again for an anniversary and loved it more than ever. Thanks Luca for making our evening extra special.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Ridiculous pricing even for VegasSirDineALotDined on 8/28/2014Fish from Mediterranean waters at insane prices. Sure, the room is beautiful and service knowledgable, but not a flavor in my fish stew was memorable. Go if you want to impress business associates who are not foodies.Special Features:
- OK, But JustSportivoVIPDined on 8/28/2014If you like pretentiousness, and want to pay heavily for it, the Bartolotta is the place to go. I don't particularly care for place that bring out the main course items as samples from which to choose; I like to just order of the menu. And, speaking of the menu - it is so expansive and confusing, with endless combinations of food items possible, that it made ordering a chore. Judging from what was going on at the other tables, there was widespread confusion. On the plus side, the fish offerings are extremely fresh and nicely prepared to your liking, though I don't recall having paid as much for a meal in Las Vegas, and come away unimpressed.Special Features:
- Bartolotta Continues to ExcelRichardGDined on 8/27/2014A selection of fresh fish the likes of which is available in only a handful of restaurants in the world, and prepared with the skill one would want for such prized product. The gigantic langostino is a must, as is the ordering of at least one whole fish. Please, listen to your server as to which sauce is the best; I did not and my server was sufficiently wise to bring the one I ordered AND the one he wanted me to try. (Yes, he was correct, by far!) Each and every dish is the highest quality and prepared exquisitely. These people know what they're doing with seafood, although the accompanying sides were perfect, as well. This is a five star spot that doesn't get all the hype it deserves. A must stop on a trip to Vegas - period!Special Features:
- Top notch servicePtownLiferDined on 8/25/2014If you are looking for great fresh sea food this is the place. Their service was amazing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- On pointvegaslocalDined on 8/21/2014Went there for my anniversary, and briefly mentioned that in the special requests section on open table and they made sure to address it as soon as we got there and gave us a great table. The service was a amazing, and their knowledge of the food was second to none. Food was also great, no complaints. The price can really get up there but you are paying for the service, food and spectacular surroundings. No complaints here and would for sure continue to go back.Special Features:
- Why The Menu Switcheroo?OpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 8/21/2014It's important to note first that there are a few fixed price menus available ranging in price depending on the degree to which you want to experience the amazing culinary treasures coming from the kitchen. We asked for the Menu di Paranza, which is runs $150 per person. Our waiter - either by hook or crook - finished taking our order and proclaimed that he would take care of us. That supposedly meant unilatetally upgrading our menu to the "grand menu" which runs $10 more person. The courses are slightly modified from the "di Paranza" menu, but frankly not enough to change the price in my opinion. $10 per person adds up unfortunately. It was a damper to an otherwise fine evening of delightful and inspired Italian fare.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- food was out of this worldpoohDined on 8/20/2014Maurizio did a great job and made sure our birthday celebration was to be remembered.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Spaghetti and Gelato!VetyExyVIPDined on 8/19/2014Not a fish lover, but the hand rolled spaghetti with meat sauce was great! Loved the Gelato dessert! My waiter Gertion was wonderful!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun and impressiveNeilRDined on 8/18/2014Bartolotta is in the Wynn complex, which is extremely glamorous. The decor of the restaurant itself is possibly a little over-the-top for European tastes, but still very attractive and fun. The food is predominately fish (of course!), and the waiter goes to great lengths to extol the Italian provenance of said fish - flown over every day! Even though the presentation is perhaps a bit showy, the food and wine both turn out to be excellent, the service very good, and a buzzy, 'beautiful people' vibe makes the evening very enjoyable. Take your squeeze there and she will be impressed. Make sure your credit card is not near its credit limit!Special Features:
- kiwi1010Dined on 8/18/2014Food is good but a little pricey. Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exhorbitant!SaveurDined on 8/18/2014Dinner for 5 adults and 2 teens with 2 bottles of wine ($160 each - and this was one of the most economically priced wine) was over $1200. The seafood is supposedly flown in from Italy, but $144 for a Branzino entree (a fish I can get at Whole foods for less than $20) is a bit ridiculous. But it's not just the money. The place is very loud, service is spotty, and the food flavor is not distinctive. Certainly not a fine dining experience. My seafood pasta appetizer was probably the only item we ordered that any of us really relished. The rest of it was just acceptable - not bad, but not great either. The deserts got an above average rating from our group.Special Features:
- So so foodnhactualDined on 8/17/2014This is a very fine restaurant in setting, when it comes to the food, the quality of the food is way below its level in its look and style. My wife ordered Abruzzi style seafood stew and I had scorpion fish, mussels, fennel, potatoes, tomato, white wine-saffron sauce. Both dishes were serve luke warm and sea food were over cooked. The wine was excellent but not cheap, as I expected from this high class restaurant, this restaurant has a very good wine list.Special Features:
- Superb!NoshfanDined on 8/15/2014Risotto was to die for, spaghetti and seafood stew were fantastic. There was a slight mix up with our fresh fish order but I could tell the fish itself would have been delish. They made it all right though. Took the fish order off our check, comped our wine and provided us complementary desserts (4 of them for 2 people). Service was impeccable. We will definstely be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing serviceFoodComasDined on 8/10/2014Having gone there not knowing the menu favored seafood delicacies, I was a bit unsure I'd find something for my vegetarian palate. The wait staff was beyond helpful. Our server was a gem and made sure I got a taste of a few different non-carnivorous items on the menu. My boyfriend had the pan seared scallops which he claimed were the best he's ever had (and savored every bite for about 30 seconds each)! Then there was the dessert! Semifreddo with bitter chocolate. Unbelievable. I will dream of that sweet perfection until we return to the Wynn in a few months. Bravo on service. Could not have been more friendly or accommodating!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Expensive!DanielDined on 8/6/2014Wow was it outrageously expensive...but delicious. It was good for an anniversary dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

SAex (South Atlantic Express) is a proposed submarine communications cable linking South Africa and Angola to Brazil with onward connectivity to the United States through the existing GlobeNet cable system. The project was announced in 2011 by eFive Telecoms (Pty) Ltd, who leads the project as principal. In April, 2011 the Bank of China announced that it was interested in investing 60% of the funds required for the project. The Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa has also expressed interest in funding. The project is expected to cost R3 billion to complete.[3]
SAEx was conceived as a system to link the developing economies of Southern Africa and South America independently of traditional hubs and so to contribute to a link between BRICS economic regions without recourse to traditional northern hemisphere hubs. It will also form a sub-sea route from Indian Ocean network nodes in the Gulf region, India and Eastern Asia to South America and the USA while avoiding geological and geopolitical hazards present on other paths, such as the oceanic trenches of the Pacific Ocean, the Red Sea, the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean Sea and transits through potentially unstable countries and unreliable overland transit networks. Currently, internet traffic bounded from South Africa to the Americas routes through Europe. The SAex cable if constructed, will reduce latency and bandwidth costs associated with the distance that internet traffic currently has to travel by providing the shortest route possible to the Americas. The initial design capacity of the cable is 24 TBit/s and will be over 10,000 kilometres in length. It will consist of three fibre pairs, each capable of carrying 8 TBit/s of data using 100 GBit/s wavelength technology.[4] Two fibre pairs — with a combined design capacity of 16 TBit/s — will be extended to South Africa from an undersea branching unit, with another fibre pair likely to be extended to Angola. According to a memorandum of understanding closed in April 2010 Main One and SEACOM will interconnect their cables with SAex and so form a pan-African fibre-optic ring. Through SEACOM the cable could also supply India with bandwidth towards the Americas.
The cable system is expected to be operational in mid-2014 and once completed will be the highest-capacity cable to serve South Africa, and may become the second submarine cable to link Africa with South America, through the South Atlantic (the first one being ATLANTIS-2).[5][6]
Campaign to connect St. Helena[edit]
Since January 2012 a campaign called Move This Cable launched by A Human Right has been lobbying for a branch of the SAex cable to land on the remote island of St Helena in order to provide high-speed Internet access to the island's small population of 4,200 people and so to foster socio-economic development.[7][8][9]
Parallel projects[edit]
However with WASACE South another cable will become available on the same route by 2014. According to eFive CEO Mulaudzi his company wants to have the first-mover advantage since there is no need for two separate cable systems connecting Angola with Brazil.[1] On Friday, 23 March 2012, the president of Angola Cables, António Nunes and the president of Telebrás, Caio Bonilha, signed a deal to construct a cable of about 6000 km length linking Fortaleza in Brazil with the Angolan capital Luanda.[10][11] IHS Global Insight lists four concurrent projects to lay new undersea cables between South America and Africa.[12]
Landing points[edit]
- Mtunzini, South Africa
- East London, South Africa
- Port Elizabeth, South Africa
- Melkbosstrand, South Africa
- Saint Helena, British overseas territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha
- Cacuaco, Angola (proposed)
- Fortaleza, Brazil

PSTech ERP
The need to increase a company's business efficiency through simple and centralized entry and display of data, reports for management, the European way of doing business, etc. requires the introduction of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), i.e. a solution that covers all business processes of the company.
PSTech ERP is a business solution for small and medium size enterprises, fully adapted to local laws and regulations. It can be seen as a generic information system, which has functionalities common to all companies pre-developed, and which can be further customized to your specific needs. By having common functionalities pre-developed and ready for immediate use, the cost and time required for the development and implementation of an IT system in the company are significantly reduced..
PSTech ERP is based on Openbravo ERP, the world's leading web-oriented open source ERP system, which provides a modern and cost effective solution available to companies around the world. The big advantage over similar products is that there is no need for software installation on each workstation – it is sufficient to have a web browser (such as Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc.). Unlike most other ERP systems today, there are no licenses and restrictions like limited number of users – once the system is installed, unlimited number of new employees can be registered free of charge.
Companies that have their own retail network will find the special value in the integration of PSTech ERP with POS (Point of Sale) application. POS itself represents a smaller information system that should be installed separately in each retail store. It not only fully covers the entire business operations of a retail store, but also provides automatic data synchronization with PSTech ERP. In this way the centralized monitoring of the entire retail network is provided.
PSTech ERP solutions ensure that all relevant information about your company, documents, customer information etc. is protected within the system. It allows you to track inventory, movement of goods between warehouses, monitoring of sales and warehouse staff, monitoring of goods shipments, invoices, statements, price history, history of customer's transactions, reports generation by specific sectors, retailers, warehouses and much more.
PSTech also offers consulting, analysis, design, implementation and support for Openbravo ERP systems.
The comprehensive ERP solution that PSTech has to offer covers the following modules:
PSTech ERP is designed in a way that makes it possible to install only those modules that are necessary for the company at a time. If needed, it is fairly simple to later add new modules to the already implemented system.
Recognizing the needs of the domestic market, we have put together basic solutions for wholesale and retail companies by extracting only the modules that are essential for a quick start of PSTech ERP system usage. Also, we have prepared a specialized solution for the textile industry (PSTextil). More information on this can be found on separate pages:

When arch-competitors Monsanto and Dow AgroSciences make a GE seed deal and both come out looking very smug, you have to wonder. When, five days later, Monsanto and Bayer CropScience announce a deal to cross-license their competing GE seed technologies with each other, you should probably start to worry.
What are all these deals about and why should you care? Because these agreements are the latest, most visible way that the Big 6 pesticide/biotech companies are speeding up the consolidation —and their control — of the world's seed markets.
Today, 75-year-old Indiana soybean farmer Hugh Vernon Bowman will face off with Monsanto in front of the Supreme Court. Five years ago, Monsanto sued Bowman for seed patent infringement and won. Now the high court will hear the farmer's appeal.
Monsanto's aggressive pursuit of patent infringement lawsuits like Bowman v. Monsanto is well documented in a recent report by the Center for Food Safety and Save Our Seeds. As of January 2013, the corporation had filed 144 suits against 410 farmers in 27 states. Corn and soybean growers across the country will be watching the outcome of today's case very closely.
In Iowa earlier this week, organic and conventional farmers delivered over 40,000 petition signatures and a clear message to Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack: Stop the approval of "next generation" GE corn and soy crops. Now.
Dow's 2,4-D-resistant corn is the first of 10 herbicide-resistant crops in the queue pending USDA approval, with Monsanto's dicamba soy and others not far behind. If approved, these new GE crops would dramatically drive up the use of harmful pesticides, placing the burden of increased costs and health risks on farmers and local communities.
The Supreme Court announced last week that an Indiana farmer who was sued by Monsanto will get another day in court.
Vernon Hugh Bowman was forced to pay Monsanto $84,000 for planting seeds containing patented RoundUp Ready genes without paying technology fees to the chemical and seed giant. If the Supreme Court overturns this decision when it hears Bowman's appeal, its ruling could drastically change the biotech seed industry.
Very big news exploding across the papers yesterday. Eating genetically engineered (GE) corn has been strongly linked to serious health effects — including mammary tumors, kidney and liver damage. A team of European scientists yesterday released the first independent long-term animal feeding study of its kind on the health effects of eating GE foods in the peer-reviewed journal Food and Chemical Toxicology.
