|Comments on the Teachings of George Vithoulkas
There are no translations available.
I want to mention my great satisfaction and gratefulness with the e-learning. I found the course and teaching full of knowledge (and heart!), both intense and fun. The lively description of the remedies, cases and theory - coloured, lightened and made lively through anecdotes by the Master - made it (and him) a very good company during these months, since I signed up. I am above all very grateful for the possibility to balance his virtual presence through the e-learning with the live summer courses in Alonissos.

Today, millions of people try homeopathic treatment to cure their sufferings,with mixed results. It is because some of the practitioners lack the correct training. If anyone wants to become a true healer and learn this beautiful and complex science, there is a complete E-LEARNING program in which the best homeopath in the world, Professor George Vithoulkas, will share his knowledge and his experience of over 50 years.
Dan Horvath
Dear friends of Homeopathy, this is my last day of joining the lectures. I liked it so much to have the Academy of Alonissos in my practice room, being able to join in, via the E-Learning Program, I would prefer to continue this forever! With a tear in the eye I say good-bye. To express my gratitude for the knowledge offered to us in this course, I am afraid that I will not find the right words, but I will give it a try: "I was blind but now I start to see"
Thank you so much Mr. Vithoulkas and thanks to everybody for training, informing and communicating.

My participation in the e-learning course with Prof. George Vithoulkas has been one of the most inspiring and productive learning periods in my life. Unlike other tertiary courses, either online or in person, I have gained knowledge from George's experience which made text books come to life. This practical application of the traditional wisdom of homeopathy (along with observances that extend these traditional theories), give any aspiring or established homeopath practical tools and an experience of the scope of diseases which homeopathy can treat. Studying homeopathy is also a self reflective exercise. George, perhaps without knowing, reveals aspects of participants which they may not have even been aware. His down to earth, pragmatic and entertaining approach have had me glued to the computer and searching hungrily through my books. I am deeply grateful to George and his team of people who make this course happen, not only for my advantage but for the advancement of homeopathy itself.

I have studied homeopathy off and on for over 14 years and I can say without hesitation that the E learning course offered with the International Academy of Classical Homeopathy has been by far the best thing I have ever invested my time and resources in.
In my opinion the E-Learning course is most excellent, fascinating and absorbing, reflecting the quality of Prof. Vithoulkas' teaching.
Dear George, Thank you for sending me the link to your excellent new website. Here is my feedback from some limited browsing on the site. This is a major contribution to international classical homeopathy and I am sure that I will refer to it often. There is a huge amount of useful information for homeopaths all over the world on your this excellent site which summarises the comprehensive contribution you have made to homeopathy. Your web designer has done a very good job and this will be a valuable homeopathic resource for many decades. Congratulations on a big achievement and feel free to quote anything I've written here.
Firstly, I absolutely love the course.
Mr. Vithoulkas' lectures are very inspiring and enriching. I estimate this E-learning course as a profound repetition of the homeopathic philosophy. It encourages me in my homeopathic work and gives me a clearer insight.
I am an allopathic doctor and am new to Homeopathy and have no prior knowledge/experience prior to join this course, but am very eager to learn and eventually start my own outpatient practice.
I would like to thank you for a, once again, wonderful, instructive, inspiring (german) seminar in May/June! It is always an excellent source for new ideas, new approaches and stimulation to dedicate one's life even more to practicing homeopathy.
I enjoy very much the video-lectures of Prof. Vithoulkas !
I've started the e-learning and it's fantastic. It is very interesting and I spend all my free time in listening lessons and in reading Vithoulkas' books.
Firstly, thanks for putting this together. Especially for people like us who are so far away, it's a real blessing.
To my mind this is the best opportunity to study classical homeopathy nowadays.
I'm very, very happy with the e-learning, having the opportunity to watch all of George's teaching is a very unique chance for me and I'm glad to have the chance to get the teaching this way.
We all (from Portugal) want to thank you and your team for your essential contribution of the reengineering of Classical Homeopathy.
Every time I learn a remedy on your marvellous Materia Medica Viva, I thank life that you exist.
I want to thank you from the depth of my heart for your teaching. I really appreciate all the work you do.
This E-Learning course has been The Best I Have Ever Done!!!
I am enjoying the course very much.
I have been very pleased with the E-Learning Program. I feel it is organized well and at the same time you are open to hear from students regarding improvements. I truly appreciate Dr. Vithoulkas' clarity in conveying the information. I am still in awe that good classical homeopathy is now available to so many of us who could never been able to afford to go Greece for this training. I know this will help spread a proper understanding and practice of homeopathy and put homeopathy back in good standing with the world.
I have been enjoying the program very much and I hope there will be stress on remedies and case taking as it is still confusing to me as a homeopath.
I enjoy very much the video-lectures of Prof. Vithoulkas !
I am enjoying the e-learning program very much, and the opportunity for questions and answers sessions is extremely helpful.
I have very much enjoyed the videos I have seen thus far and feel it has been a very good investment.
First of all I would like to thank all the staff of the e-learning program for this great opportunity they are offering to us the beginners to study homeopathy and the great quality of the teaching, supervision etc.
I am really enthusiastic about the teachings and I am very happy that I have made the decision to join this program. Although I had spent many years with trying to learn and understand homeopathy, gathering knowledge from all different approaches, I finally ended up in confusion. With the teachings of Mr. Vithoulkas I can see that there is a chance that I will be able to bring in a structure into the knowledge I had achieved before, but which in the end seemed vague and unreliable.
I am pleased to attend classes. Thank you for the opportunity to learn homeopathy by internet. This knowledge needed everyone.
I'm very satisfied from E-learning program. Most exciting learning experience that a homeopath can have.
I like it very much and I think it's very well organized.
I would like to express my deepest admiration and respect for Dr. G. Vithoulkas.
I love the program. I am learning a lot. This program helps me understand the many concepts of Homeopathy, using Radar, learnings from Organon, and finding remedies. I find the concepts of peoples' health, on all physical, emotional, and psychological level, very interesting.
I am satisfied with the course so far especially the live lectures. My own practice has started to evolve as I learn from the program.
It´s really great to read the comments !!
I would like to thank you very much. I am happy that I have an opportunity to be your student and learn your way of thinking and homeopathic approach. I would like to tell you that my results after your course are really better and also my understanding of my patients.
Excellent podcast. Valuable teachings from a master of homeopathy.
Manoj Radhakrishnan
I am Dr. Krutik Shah from India practicing Classical Homeopathy.
My heart is filled with affection and gratitude for all that you are doing for us. I take your permission to say that you are like a tree where God himself has made a nest. And you are also like a cool, clear mountain stream where small animals like us come to drink. My daughter who is beside me says "drink knowledge".
When I was learning the art (trying to find the right (relevent information from the patient), I found your books extremely challenging (made me really think for my self about your comments made from your long experience. I am very grateful to you for that.
Dear George, My name is Alex Leupen, homeopathic doctor in Utrecht and a colleague of Jan Scholten. I became a homeopath because of your book translated in Dutch by Alfons Geukens. You have always been a source of inspiration for me and my generation of homeopathic doctors. I want to thank you for your wisdom and lessons.
These YouTube lectures are VERY interesting.
It's wonderful! I just wanted to say you my delight and pleasure from your chapter in "The levels of Health". Thank you very-very much!!!
Congratulations! Keep being the extraordinary human being, who really makes a difference in the world and in people 's lives.
Thank you very much for your great books on Homeopathy.
I read many books of Prof. Vithoulkas, listen and watch his audio and video lectures which are available at your website. I have been really inspired with Prof. Vithoulkas' approach and his God gifted skills and abilities.
I am a great fan of yours, through your video I learned much about pulsatilla.
Your definition of health reflects your holistic view. Through your definition, you have indeed expanded the dimension of the homoeopathic practice. It is proved that homoeopathy can cure psychic as well as physical ailments. Now, the homoeopathic researchers should find out how this medical science can help mankind to attain spiritual progress. It is possible. Your attention is drawn to this direction.
Your E-learning has become the most impressive tool for the advancement of homeopathy since the works of Hahnemann and holds a tremendous potential for education.
Dear Prof. Vithoulkas, your new updated website it really good. The e-learning section is a real boon. I am actually enrolled for your video course in India. Getting real good learning from your experience and sharing. Thank you.
Thank you for the lessons, thank you for the homeopathic doctrine, thank you for the methodology but overall for a thing: The anchorage to reality of the human life. During the attend of your school and seminars, I, in the time more and more, had appreciated the link with the reality, raised from observation, intelligent analysis enriched by the experience. I feel that to go to being a good "therapeuta" as you are, it's necessary a fundamental quality: The honesty of look the facts without "discounts for the truth" as we wish to be!!
Prof. Ettore Manconi

Love these slimline punches! They stack nicely, the punching is a breeze. I love that you can turn it upside down and see exactly where you're punching out of the paper. No more wasted paper! The swirl in the center of the flower occasionally gets caught up in the punch, but it's no big deal! Love them. Wish I could get all my stamps in this slimline design.
Love it! By far my favorite. Looks good and easy to use.
I thought it was cool.

The Hobbit Production Video #6
by Kyle Anderson on March 7, 2012
In this video, Peter Jackson continues to show us the fun and peril of shooting on location. I really want to go to New Zealand now, even more than before. It's also interesting to note that The Hobbit, which consists of two films, has roughly the same shooting schedule as the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy. I assume with Andy Serkis heading up the second unit, Jackson won't get exhausted the way he did ten years ago. Hooray for Middle Earth!

Lady Saints fall 65-67 at Clayton State
North Georgia falls back to .500 in PBC play
MORROW, GA - North Georgia College & State University put together one of their biggest comebacks of the season, but fell in the final minute to drop a 67-65 decision at Clayton State University Wednesday evening in Peach Belt Conference action.
Clayton State University (16-8, 11-6) is just one of two teams the Lady Saints have failed to notch a win against in the Peach Belt Conference heading into the road contest, and that did not change at the Fitness and Athletic Center Wednesday evening. The Lakers led by nine at the half, but a 21-12 in the second period cut the Clayton State lead to just three. The Lady Saints would not stop their, taking their first lead of the half at the 4:18 mark on a layup by Megan Huffman to make it 59-57.
A free throw by Syretha Marble with 1:09 remaining tied the game 65-65, but that was the last point North Georgia would score as the Lakers knocked down a pair of foul shots with 43 ticks on the clock to give the home team a two-point win.
Marble led all scorers with 26 points and pulled down 11 rebounds for her second straight double double. Huffman put up 25 points of her own, and grabbed seven rebounds in the road loss.
Four Lakers scored in double-figures to lead the charge, including 20 from Shantel Ragin and 16 from Lisa Jackson.
North Georgia (16-9, 9-9 PBC) returns to action on Saturday, February 23, at 2:00 pm as the Lady Saints welcome Augusta State University to Memorial Hall for Senior Day 2008.

A love letter
Picture books are great. I am grateful to the ones who thought of a picture of an apple with the word APPLE printed suggestively as an introduction to education–a working model of human experience, which is used as a method: there are things out-there, pictures in my head, and then there is me looking at the picture book i.e. something telling the thing corresponding to each one of the pictures in my head. I don't have any picture of many of the things out-there (sorry onto function) and I have more than one picture of somethings (sorry 1-1). This is beginning to look a lot like the definition of function (with inside-the-head as domain and outside-the-head as codomain; Conceptual Mathematics, page 83).

Too many to go through it once.
Too many to go through it once.
So far as I know, this white corn Old Taylor was a one off. However much they made back when this thread began is it. They haven't continued to fill the pipeline. So when they do release this it will be a limited edition and priced accordingly.
Col. Charles K. "Crotchety" Cowdery
"Whiskey Don't Keep."
I'm ok with the prices, it's the over distribution that has me baffled. Can't think of another industry where the limited release (mid to high end depending on your viewpoint) gets pushed out to gas stations, grocery chains, backwoods shops and large format liquor stores.
Giving everyone 2 bottles isn't worth my time to attempt.

You might be able to negotiate 10 to 25 cents per non-broken brick. If they aren't worth that to you then you can check what it costs to buy used bricks that have been cleaned.

This toaster oven earned the highest rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it quickly cooked pizza and cookies and maintained a constant cooking temperature. Also described by The Wall Street Journal as capable of doing "just about everything we use the oven for," The Best Toaster Oven's internal temperature varied only 2.89� F when measured at different locations within the oven when set to 400� F, far superior to lesser units that varied as much as 65� F and burned different areas of food, such as the back of a pizza. The Best model has nine settings—the most of any oven—designed for specific foods (pizza, bagel, cookies). It suggests ideal cooking temperatures and times for each foodstuff and automatically adjusts the heat for optimal results. The 1,800-watt oven broils, cooks with convection, and defrosts at the touch of a button, its easy-to-read LCD shows temperatures and cooking times, and the 0.8 cubic foot interior accommodates a 12" pizza or six pieces of toast. 11 1/4" H x 18 1/2" W x 16" D. (21 1/2 lbs.)
"This toaster oven is the best I've ever had. Sturdy, well-thought-out design, multifunctional - toasts, bakes, broils, convection oven and more ...very accurate heating, no more burned toast or items roasted on only one side." - C, New York
Lifetime Guarantee

Phoebe Anna Traquair, 1852 - 1936. Artist Sculpted in 1927
On Display PORTRAIT GALLERY
- Scottish Art
Working as a mural painter, illuminator, embroiderer and enameller, Phoebe Traquair was one of the most distinguished artists of her generation. She painted murals for St Mary's Cathedral Song School and the Catholic Apostolic Church in Edinburgh (now the Mansfield Traquair Centre). James Pittendrigh Macgillivray made the plaster version of this bust in the late 1890s. At his own suggestion, he later had it carved in marble by the sculptor Peter Induni. The bust depicts her in working smock and cap, as the artist craftswoman.

SAN DIEGO — I drove down here alone so that I'll have plenty of room upon my return to bring back any Chargers wanting an early start finding a place to live in Los Angeles.
While here I thought I might as well ride the Choking Dogs for going belly up after boasting the best record in baseball and then collapsing when adding better players.
Dodgers and Cardinals have simultaneous possession of the final wild card.
Take away the first 10 games of the season with the Dodgers going 9-1 and beating up on the Padres and over the next 144 games, it is San Diego at 72-72 with the better record than the Dodgers' 70-74.
That's disgraceful. That's a payroll of around $52 million improving over time while a payroll of $149 million backslides.
So what went wrong?
Two words: Matt Kemp.
He means that much to the Dodgers, the team coming on strong last season with Kemp posting MVP numbers and starting fast again this season, hitting .359 through.34 games.
The guy is a superstar, maturing into the acknowledged team leader. But this season his body betrayed him.
And the Dodgers really aren't much without him.
A pair of hamstring injuries took their toll, but nothing like Kemp's attempt to run through a wall in Colorado.
The Dodgers had just made a deal with Boston, the Giants had lost Melky Cabrera to a drug suspension and a playoff berth was a given.
But Kemp ran into the wall face and shoulder first, initially thinking he had broken his jaw only to awaken the next morning and find no feeling in his left shoulder.
To those who wonder if Kemp is healthy now and what went wrong with the Dodgers, his .158 batting average with two home runs and six RBIs in the last 20 games answers both questions.
"I want to play — hurt or not," Kemp says upon the first attempt to dig deep into his shoulder. "I think everyone in this clubhouse is probably hurt in some way."
He's reluctant to say so, but he finally admits to feeling pain when he swings a bat. And anyone who has watched Kemp swing the bat with the gusto that he does is probably now wincing as well.
By the way, the smudge that always seems to be there on his left shoulder when he comes to the plate is pine tar from his bat while swinging so hard during warmups in the on-deck circle.
"I won't make excuses and it's weird to even answer these questions," he says. "But the fact is it's a frayed labrum, what you would basically call a partially torn labrum."
Will he require surgery?
"I don't know," he says, while declining to get the final answer until there are no more games to be won.
"I don't know what I need to do to make it feel better, but I'm going to finish out this season and help put our team in a situation where we can still make the playoffs."
Now you can add a sore left elbow to Kemp's woes, getting hit by a pitch in the sixth inning here and later adding a dose of embarrassment to the mix when caught rounding third a few steps too far.
He doesn't get on base very often these days, so you can understand his eagerness to touch them all.
Now while everyone remains puzzled why the Dodgers can't hit as a team after adding so much wallop to the lineup, I go back to Kemp's injury.
The charismatic Kemp is the life of the clubhouse and dugout, the player who really wants to be great while willing to carry everyone on his shoulders if necessary.
As he says, "Chris Paul is my idol," loving the way Paul embraces his Clippers' role as both gritty competitor and leader.
Adrian Gonzalez and Hanley Ramirez are too new to the group to assert themselves and both seem unwilling to carry the team.
The role has never really suited Andre Ethier.
"I like being considered one of the best," Kemp says, hours before making the final out of a 2-1 loss. "But obviously this is just another one of those roadblocks that I'll have to get past."
Just wait until next year.
THE NEW owners of the San Diego Union-Tribune have told their writers to support the push for a new Chargers stadium here.
Columnist Tim Sullivan took issue with such a small-town directive and was fired.
Columnist Nick Canepa, though, should get a raise.
Canepa took exception to the suggestion the Chargers might be moving to Los Angeles now that AEG is for sale and might have an owner more interested in making an NFL deal.
Canepa wrote recently, "If the Chargers ever have threatened to move to Los Angeles or anywhere else, I'd like somebody to show me the quote. Good luck. There isn't one to find. We, the media, and the fans and the L.A. wannabes are the ones who have manufactured the threats."
That's not entirely true. It wasn't the media who met with Philip Anschutz to discuss a sales price for the Chargers in preliminary discussions to move the team to Los Angeles. It was Chargers owner Dean Spanos, a.k.a. one of the Spanos Goofs.
If there's no threat of the Chargers moving, why is Spanos talking to Anschutz as well as reps from the City of Industry?
As for finding a threatening quote, it's a columnist's red herring. Why would the Chargers threaten to leave San Diego if still trying to sell tickets here?
I'm not sure anyone in L.A. really cares if the Chargers come north, but it's kind of like the Dodgers: We're probably just stuck with them.

AUSTIN -- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is requesting a product made in North Texas be removed from stores. As KVUE previously reported, OxyElite Pro has been linked to 24 cases of acute hepatitis and one death. A 48-year-old mother died after taking the fat burning supplement for several weeks.
When it comes to weight loss, personal trainer Mike Dunlap says there's only two sure fire methods that work.
"Nutrition and get your butt in the gym," he said.
Dunlap has done that for years. Therefore he saw nothing wrong with using the fat burning, supplement OxyElite Pro to help better prepare him for Brazilian Jujitsu matches.
"Many times I've needed to cut that weight before competitions," said Dunlap.
He doesn't recommend OxyElite Pro to people just starting to workout.
"If I had a client ask me about this product I would say, 'No, you're crazy,'" said Dunlap.
The CDC agrees. It's requesting OxyElite Pro be removed from the market. It's been linked to nearly 25 cases of acute hepatitis -- an inflammation of the liver.
"It is certainly buyer beware," said Ross Tobleman, M.D., the director of emergency medicine at Scott & White in Round Rock. "Any time you take a pill or a supplement, you need to know what you're putting into your body."
Tobleman says most fat burning supplements work by thermogenesis. In short they try to increase the body's metabolism. The problem he says is because the Food and Drug Administration does not regulate most over the counter products, consumers don't really know what they're getting.
"When you don't know exactly what you're putting into your body, when that medication or that herbal supplement can be potentially dangerous, especially in higher amounts, that's when people start getting into trouble," said Tobleman.
Dunlap is equally concerned.
"I think there's a certain due diligence that these manufacturers need to do," said Dunlap. "They're using terms like 'natural' and 'pro,' and it's marketing. It's out there for everybody instead of saying, 'This is a serious substance.'"
This isn't the first time the manufacturer of OxyElite Pro has been forced to removed products. Dunlap says this latest incident may very well lead to FDA regulation, or at the very least better labeling.

The Sharks and Icebergs of Social Media Measurement
Friday, March 25th, 2011
It's all very deceiving. Social media measurement is superquick and feeds everyone's desire for instant gratification. Want to measure something right now, lickety split? Here you go!
Unfortunately, it's not that simple, nor do you want it be that simple. Behind every "instant analysis" are hundreds and thousands of hours of tedious, painstaking work. Let's take a brief climb up the social media measurement iceberg and check out where the data quality sharks are hiding.
Taking much of the time, the bulk of the iceberg, and many of the data quality sharks is sentiment analysis. There's no point in being amazed at how quick your measurements were generated if those numbers have no bearing on the true sentiment of a brand. The data quality sharks biting at the validity of your data include things like failing to measure "the bomb" correctly and forgetting to measure "FTW." If these sharks aren't addressed, your amazingly quick measurement will be wrong.
The next chunk of the iceberg that rarely gets seen is the work that goes into developing variables. The data quality sharks here include recognizing that "tasting success" and "tastes in music" aren't discussions of how deliciously yummy something is. Behind the scenes, people must spend icebergs of time making sure those invalid mentions are identified and ignored. Otherwise, your instant measure of whether people are happy with the new flavour of Doritos will be wrong.
Now we're actually ready to gather YOUR data. As always, you can go online and quickly gather a ton of information about Ford or Sears or Harley, but your data quality sharks try to stuff in mentions of "my mayor, Mr. Rob Ford" and "sear the meat quickly" and "my dog Harley." If you don't take the time to kill those data quality sharks, your instant analysis will, once again, be wrong.
The last chunk of work goes into removing spam and irrelevant data. Of course, you can easily set up an automated system to detect and delete spam but you must always be on the lookout for new and improved spam. This data quality shark sneaks in when you least expect it. No checking means no validity.
And now, we've climbed to the top of the iceberg, to the last tiny percent of data work that is visible to the outside world. Enjoy your magical, instant measurement. It wasn't that instant after-all, was it!

In anticipation of Earth Day 2011 (April 22nd), the National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) encourages community pharmacists to demonstrate their role as a respected and knowledgeable resource on all aspects of medications, from dispensing to disposal.
To assist pharmacists in conveying that message, NCPA is offering to its members, discounts, product displays, and communications and marketing materials and event ideas as part of its successful prescription disposal program for consumers www.DisposeMyMeds.org.
"On Earth Day and every day, community pharmacies that voluntarily offer drug disposal services for their patients have an opportunity to build their businesses while building better relationships with patients as they discuss their medication needs," said Robert J. Greenwood, RPh, NCPA president and pharmacy owner in Waterloo, IA. "Pharmacists place a premium on monitoring what prescription drugs are taken, how they interact with other drugs, how effective they are, and what side-effects they might cause as way to ensure patients are getting the maximum results," said Greenwood. "The Dispose My Meds program is another avenue to allow pharmacists to apply their clinical patient care knowledge and to promote proper adherence to the patient's prescription medication regimen."
As medication experts, pharmacists can help patients get the most benefit from their medicine. When patients stop in to dispose of their unused medications they can speak with their pharmacist about why they discontinued their medication. A survey released by NCPA found that an astounding three-quarter of adults do not always take their prescription medicine as directed. Problems include forgetting to take a medication, taking less than the prescribed dosage or discontinuing usage. Community pharmacists are the most accessible health care provider and play a crucial role in improving adherence and serving as a key care contact as patients move through the health care system.
The NCPA Dispose My Meds program was launched in conjunction with the 40th anniversary of Earth Week in April 2010 via a partnership with NCPA and Sharps Compliance Inc. in order to address two pressing issues: drug diversion and environmental contamination. As part of the program, NCPA members receive nearly 20 percent in discounts with shipping included on the products from the Sharps TakeAway Environmental Return System, along with free customizable marketing materials and a listing on our companion consumer website, www.disposemymeds.org. To date more than 1,200 pharmacies in 48 states are participating in the program and have collected some 25,000 pounds of unused or expired non-controlled medications. Currently, controlled medications are prohibited from being returned through disposal programs such as Dispose My Meds. Participating pharmacies have noted increased foot traffic and conversion of new patients.
For more information or to get involved, pharmacists can visit www.ncpanet.org or www.disposemymeds.org.
The National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA®) represents the interests of America's community pharmacists, including the owners of more than 23,000 independent community pharmacies, pharmacy franchises, and chains. Together they represent a $93 billion health-care marketplace, have more than 315,000 employees including 62,400 pharmacists, and dispense over 41% of all retail prescriptions.

AUSTIN -- Austin's rapid population growth is fueling a surge in the real estate market.
According to a new report by the Austin Board of Realtors, home sales increased 37 percent from October 2011 to October 2012. Median home prices are up five percent. Condo prices are up three percent from last year.
"We've got lots of good things going on in our marketplace right now," said ABoR Chairman Leonard Guerrero. "We have people coming in the area from all over the country."
Since 2010, more than 150,000 people have moved to Austin according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The current Austin area population is 1.8 million.
By 2030, some economists predict those numbers could double or even triple.
"I wish we could keep it a bigger secret, but we aren't going to be able to do that," said Austin resident Terry Whipps. He moved to Austin last year.
Several new hotels are also planned for the North-Northwest Austin area. A high-end, retro hotel called Lone Star Court will open in The Domain this spring. A Holiday Inn will be built by late summer at Highway 183 near Braker Lane. A total of eight new hotels could cater to Austin's bustling economy and growing number of visitors.

Lower energy costs and rebates result in short payback period
CLARE, Mich., Feb. 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Reihl Efficient, LLC (Reihl) completed several installations of its patented Cool Vap™ evaporator coil system in December. Energy savings from the new retrofit systems measured as high as 86%. Eco Refrigeration Supply Company sold the systems and provided installation services.
Installations were completed at RGM Lucky Stop, Belle Plaza Liquor, and Niles Marathon in Niles, Michigan. Based on the energy testing before and after the installation of Reihl Efficient Cool Vap™ evaporator coils, rebates averaging $2,504 per unit were achieved. Combining the energy cost savings with rebates provides an accelerated payback period for owners of walk-in coolers.
"This is an important milestone for our technology," stated Mike Reihl, the Company's President and Founder. "Combining these impressive results with our Performance Guarantee program and the opportunity for utility company rebates should propel our products into rapid adoption within the refrigeration industry."
Reihl's products utilize a patented application of Phase Change Materials (PCM) in an evaporator coil system that can be easily retrofitted into any walk-in cooler. Interested parties can contact Mike Reihl at (989) 620-5396 or at firstname.lastname@example.com. More information is available on the company's website: www.reihlefficient.com

Holding a cell phone and primed for a photo shoot, Lorna Hampton was giddy about her godson's participation in the Ian Poulter Charity Classic as she sat beside his mother on the shuttle bus headed to the driving range.
Poulter's golf tournament benefits Nemours Hospital, located just minutes from his Lake Nona home. And until a few moments before Hampton got off the bus, she had no idea her godson, a participant in the tournament, was a longtime patient.
"He always seemed fine," said Hampton, her eyes widening when asked about her godson's medical condition.
Perhaps that is the real triumph for 15-year-old Obson "Obie" Ibssa. He's just like any other normal kid, except he's got one functioning kidney.
One kidney is enough for him to live a healthy life, but it wasn't enough to give him the sports experiences he dreamed of as a small child wanting to play soccer and baseball.
Doctors advised Obie's parents Maftuha and Abdul to prohibit their son from participating in contact sports to avoid risking damage to his one working kidney.
It's already difficult enough for any parent to say, "No," to a 5-year-old. Trying to explain the why proved even more difficult.
"He didn't comprehend that it would have any limitations on him," Maftuha said of his condition. "He was mad. He cried and whined, 'What's wrong with me?' "
Maftuha and Abdul, both pharmacists, learned their son would be born with one malfunctioning kidney when a cyst was detected during Maftuha's six-month ultrasound.
Obie took regular dosages of antibiotic amoxicillin during his first year of life to aid his system in combating potential infections. Even now, he gets his blood drawn every three to six months to monitor infections.
"That's the one time he will complain," his mother said.
The Ibssas, who moved to America from Ethiopia as young adults, never allowed Obie to wallow in self-pity. They raised their two children to have a strong cultural respect for gratitude and service. Both their son and 14-year-old daughter, Lalee, have logged several hours volunteering at Florida Hospital, the Orlando Science center, Give Kids the World Charity and at their school, Trinity Prep. The entire family also volunteered for both Obama presidential campaigns, making calls and sending letters. That is how the Ibssas and Lorna met. She introduced the family to the Orlando Minority Youth Golf Association three years ago.
Golf, finally, gave Obie a home for his competitive spirit.
"Initially, when the ball wasn't going in the air and the club was flying out of my hands and I was missing balls, it was frustrating," he said. "But I stuck through it and had excellent teaching, and here I am."
Obie plays for the junior varsity golf team at Trinity Prep and is working hard to advance to the next level. Squished between his busy volunteering schedule and rigorous school load of honors classes (he wants to work in the medical field one day), he practices golf three times a week and helps beginner golfers at OMYGA.
"Obie is a fortunate young man. His family has done well with their lives. He has a good mentoring system. He's put in good environments," OMYGA founder Dr. Thomas J. Dorsey said. "I see him doing whatever he wants to do and being successful."
He has no grand illusions of becoming the next Tiger Woods. He's undersized at 5-foot-5 and around 102 pounds, a side effect of his condition, his mother said.
One day he'd like to work in hospital administration at Nemours and give back to a place that's given so much to him. But first he's waiting to turn 16 so he can volunteer at the hospital.
"People know me as a bubbly-kind of guy, so I'd like to play with the kids and enhance their stays and cater to their needs," he said. "You never know, I might be in that situation one day and you have to treat others the way you want to be treated."

NAPLES — Fifth Avenue South isn't a shopping mall, and business owners on the Naples street say they don't want to be one.
A Naples main street, Fifth Avenue South has worked this year to return to its roots by promoting more special events such as movie nights.
The change comes as part of the avenue's designation late last year as a Business Improvement District, or BID. Popular around the country, Business Improvement Districts are designated zones in which businesses pay an additional tax to fund new construction, enhanced streetscapes, marketing, special events and other self-improvement activities.
Nearly six months later, Lou Vlasho — the Business Improvement District's president — assessed how the main drag has changed and will continue to do so.
"The BID gives Fifth Avenue South the ability to develop an overall plan for the street so that we can provide visitors with a solid mix of businesses, retail and dining options, arts, and special events that the whole family will enjoy," he said.
"It also gives us the money and other resources we need to implement that vision."
Naples City Council in December approved the creation of the Fifth Avenue South business improvement district. The city assessed $2 for every $1,000 of taxable value to fund the district. The 69 properties in the improvement district were assessed based on 2010 property values.
The Business Improvement District hired an executive director, Lise Sundrla, to help roll out its vision. Sundrla, who previously held a regional economic development position in Savannah, Ga., is expected to work with business and property owners to create a strategic plan to help the street maintain its unique character and distinctive personality.
"I'm excited to begin working with Fifth Avenue South's merchants to develop a plan of action," said Sundrla, who began her job last week. She said she and her husband, John, relocated to a condo on Fifth Avenue South in May.
"The street has a wonderful mix of elements, from great shops and restaurants, to an interesting history, to beach access. It really has it all."
Some Fifth Avenue South visitors recently said the difference on the street's direction is already palpable.
"The street feels more family-friendly," said Naples resident Brenda Canada, who pointed out she often visits Fifth Avenue to meet friends, shop and dine. "I've just noticed more special events and music on the street. It seems to be buzzing all the time."
Stephen Kroll of Naples agreed.
"We've been coming to Fifth Avenue a lot more lately," said Kroll, who says that he often comes with his wife, Sara, and their children Miley, 5, and Timothy, 3, to the Outdoor Movie Nights and band shell events in Cambier Park.
"We usually come for dinner and make a night of it," said Kroll, "or we go down to the beach and let the kids run around. There seems to be plenty of interesting things for us to do."
Keeping things fun and interesting is a top priority for the street, which now faces more competition from other shopping outlets such as the Waterside Shops and Mercato, which did not exist a decade ago.
"Fifth Avenue is very different from any place else in town," Vlasho said. "We aren't a shopping mall. Fifth Avenue South is and has always been the center of the community."
Fifth Avenue South's challenge remains overcoming some misconceptions, said Skip Quillen, the Business Improvement District's treasurer and owner of Culinary Concepts restaurant group which operates the popular Chops City Grill, Pazzo! Cucina Italiana and Yabba Island Grill, on the street.
"Our problem is that some area residents believe that we are expensive and for the elite," he said. "We are not. Today Fifth Avenue South is a very affordable place to shop and dine, with stores and restaurants to suit every budget.
"We are not a 'soulless' mall. We are an original, creative, and fun place to be."
Phil McCabe, a Fifth Avenue South developer, owner of The Inn on Fifth, McCabes' Irish Pub, and the Business Improvement District's vice president, plans to build a three-story hotel near the intersection of Fifth Avenue South and Park Street, across the street from his existing inn's location. The multimillion dollar project is already in the works and is expected to be completed by November 2012.
"We're on the other side of this recession," he said. "The time is right. The prospects for growth and success here have never been better."

Portland >Bars & Clubs > Kells Irish Restaurant & Pub
112 SW Second Ave, Portland, OR | Directions 9720445.521710 -122.672412
Monday To Sunday From 11:00 AM To 02:30 AM
Neighborhoods: Old Town - Chinatown, Neighbors West - Northwest
Home of Portland's biggest St. Patrick's Day party, stop in for an Irish Breakfast of eggs, banger sausages, rashers, grilled soda bread, potato bread and roasted tomatoes. They'll even have kids festivities on the 17th from 11 am to 4 pm.
Live Irish Music every day of the week! Traditional Irish dancers the first Saturday of every month. Love a good cigar with that Guinness - head downstairs to the cigar bar.
Good food and beer choices, slow service. There are dollar bills on the ceiling, pretty creative!!
Kell's is a great place to go to just start talking to random people. I've never eaten here, only drank, but I'm told the food is pretty good. You walk in and don't feel much like anything but drinkin' anyhow. Very comfy. Slightly understaffed tho.
Went to Kell and really enjoyed it!
Great place to watch some sport
They re-ran a voided charge 2 weeks after they voided it. Manager said it was a credit card batch error. They supposedly do not keep the credit card numbers yet were able to rerun the charges for St. Patricks weekend.
Great Service on a Sunday afternoon – Dropped in mid-September & sat on the "paddy-o". Friendly greeting & great service from waitress "M"(Emilia).
the service sucks – We went there today, July 4th, for lunch because we had a 2 for 1 coupon. The waitress forgot my wife's coffee and we finally had to ask another waitress for it. Our regular waitress didn't even say that she was sorry. After our food came, she didn't even check on us to see if everything was ok. We won't go back there again, even with a coupon.
The bartender Brooks was awesome!!! – went to have some lunch at Kells it was my first time there and had family from out of town. I am a hard core coffee drinker and our waiter was extremely busy...I approached the bartender and made a few simple requests and was assisted promptly!! the food was good! And the bartender was attentive and professional!!! thanks to you Brooks!!! Your customer service was appreciated!!!
Needs a customer service overhaul – This was our second time dining at Kells, but had a very similar experience. The place itself is really nice and the food is good, but the service is severely lacking. The waitstaff behave as if the customer is an inconvenience to them. This occurred on a not-so-busy Saturday afternoon so it was inexcusable. They took forever to bring our drinks and were quite rude. We were asked by 3 different people if we needed another drink, yet the drinks never managed to come. Then when our waiter brought the bill, he just dropped it off without even a thank you. There are lots of excellent dining places in Portland, so I will be taking my money elsewhere.
Great St. Patty's Day Fun – Stopped in last night (for obvious reasons: The Irish Festival in PDX) and had a wonderful time.
Great food. Great beer selection. I'm a huge fan of black and tans (or black and ciders). Although it was crowded, the staff seemed to keep their cool, which is always a plus for me! Can't wait to stop back in when its less crowded.
