The location was excellent with only a short walk to beach and village. Breakfast was excellent and had lots of choices.
The pool could be opened earlier in the morning than 9pm before breakfast like most other hotels with facilities. The evening dinner menu should be more varied and generous with portions.
A Very good location. Excellent views. Good linguistic skills of staff.
The building is getting tired, time for a review of details, not good enough just to use maintenance staff to keep it alive. After many years in the service industries I would be happy to elaborate. Car parking is only just acceptable, a parking attendant would ease the frustration caused when seeking a space.
It is situated near the center of the city
The best room's price is much higher than the standart, but the difference is so little (about 3 square meters - it means nothing)
We had an enjoyable stay at the hotel, the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and the hotel was very central to the beach and restaurants
Our room although being very clean and comfortable was a bit small
Pleasant friendly,laid back atmosphere
The hotel was well located, just a few hundred metres from the bars/restaurants in Dinard. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the hotel manager was very polite. I would stay at the hotel again if in Dinard.
My daughter & I had to stay an extra day in France due to a flight change. I chose this hotel after reading the reviews on Trip Adviser. The staff were very helpful & gave excellent recommendations for restaurants. The room was clean and modern and good value. I would recommend this hotel
Staff were very helpful, the bathroom was very good and everything was very clean.Good heating/ air con
A kettle would have been a nice inclusion in the room and it was a little small, but it was excellent for money, so can't complain.
Quality of the swimming pool and the roof garden to relax in.
Location in Dinard was perfect.
The bedroom provided did not have air conditioning.
The staff were marvellous. We were allowed an early checkin from the ferry and when we were caught in snow storms they were able to be flexible with the check out too. The location was perfect for the centre of St Malo and there were excellent restuarants nearby.
Everything was fantastic.
Nice place with a smashing view of the beach. Great shower! Easy walk to the wall city, with all it's great places to eat, meant that it was not a problem the hotel did not have a restaurant.
Very tight car park, although very secure if can get in! (We had a Land Rover). No opportunity to make tea or coffee in the room
As described in previous reviews. Clean, well positioned and helpful staff Did not have breakfast in Hotel given that it seemed expensive and there are lots of places within in very easy reach.
Good location, very good reception and on site car park
our 'premier' room was very basic and the bathroom bin hadn't been emptied from the previous guest
Comfort. cleanliness and central to all our needs.
Would have liked a bar, b ut not essential.
Great place, great staff - super friendly. The room was clean, classy and newly decorated. Grade A experience in the best of locations and the breakfast was well stocked and yummy too!
close to water, short walk to the old part of town, good size room with updated bath
Pleasant and helpful staff. Good room with adequate space anmd comfortable beds.
Thin walls let us hear the visiting Essex Biker swearing club quite clearly. No hotel parking means that you have to search around the local streeets.
The hotel was located in a central position within the old town, close to shops and restaurants but still in a quiet area. The staff were friendly, the room was comfortable but the decor and furnishings were very dated. We have stayed in much nicer places for the same rate and would recommend only staying here if better alternatives are not available.
The wi-fi is only available in public areas. Poor lighting in the rooms. Our bathroom was tiny and the shower was clogged, which meant you quickly ended up with 2 inches of water in the bottom of the shower and had to stop showering to let the water drain so that it didn't overflow into the room. They dont use mattress protectors on the beds and sometimes the sheets pull out while you're asleep and you end up sleeping on bare mattress. The hotel will keep your luggage for you but their system is not secure and virtually anyone could walk in off the street and take your bag. There is no lift in their seco...
Clean hotel with excellent reception staff who were very helpful and friendly. The buffet breakfast was very good on the Sunday. A central hotel in the walled part of St Malo close to all the facilities.
It was hard to find the hotel using the GPS. We had to park outside the walled town and walk to find it first. The decoration was begining to look a little tired in the rooms.
The location was very convenient. The bath (well, shower) room was spotlessly clean. The hotel receptionists were very friendly.
The room was very small and there really were no frills
everything was perfect
A warm welcome, with very comfortable accommodation. Staff genuinely pleased to help and with good sense of humour.
friendly helpful staff and good atmosphere
This hotel was very clean with standard decor. The walk to the walled town was about 15-20 minutes. It had a very nice water view.
room with a view to english channel - walking down boardwalk to city.
had twin beds instead of a double - ensure to clarify

Spider Grandmother
Spider Grandmother (Sussistanako or Tse-che-nako)[1] is an important creation figure in the mythology, oral traditions and folklore of many Native American cultures.
She is creator of the world in Southwestern Native American religions and myths such as that of the Pueblo and Hopi peoples. Although accounts vary, according to mythology she was responsible for the stars in the sky; she took a web she had spun, laced it with dew, threw it into the sky and the dew became the stars. Navajo mythology tells of Spider Woman or Spider Old-Woman (Na'ashjéii Asdzáá).[2]
According to the Zuni, string games were given to them by Grandmother Spider.[3] And was fire-bringer for Choctaw peoples.
Traditionally, the stories involving Spider Grandmother are narratives passed down orally from generation to generation.
Traditional Navajo/Diné limit the telling of stories involving Spider Grandmother to the winter months, known as "the season when Thunder sleeps", when it is safe to discuss certain dangerous spirits, such as Spider Woman and Northern Thunder (whence the season takes its name), and esoteric topics, such as the Emergence narrative.[citation needed]
The Choctaw people of Tennessee and Mississippi tell the story of Grandmother Spider stealing fire, then after animals refused it, bringing fire to humans.[4]
G. M. Mullett has also written a book documenting the oral legends of the Spider Woman specific to the Hopi Indians. In these narratives, Spider Woman is also known as the Earth Goddess,[5] by the name of Kokyangwuti.[6][7]
In the Northwest, the Coos people of Oregon have their version of a Spider Grandmother traditional tale (Spider-Old-Woman).[8]
Playwright Murray Mednick wrote seven one-act plays called The Coyote Cycle [9] with the same four characters: Coyote, Coyote trickster, Spider Grandmother and Mute Girl. These same characters come from traditional native American stories and myths.
Susan Hazen-Hammond, author of Penguin's Timelines of Native American History,[10] and at least eight other movies,[citation needed] has gathered numerous tales collected from various tribes and written these narratives in her book, Spider Woman's Web.[11] In this book, Spider Grandmother is also referred to by the names Spider Woman and Spider Old Woman.

It's hugely frustrating if you're stranded because of a cancelled or delayed flight. But you have rights to assistance and maybe even compensation - depending on where you're flying from or to.
Passenger rights
The Denied Boarding Regulation applies to passengers departing from an airport within the EU, whatever the airline is.
The Regulation also applies to passengers departing from an airport outside the EU for an airport within the EU, if the operating air carrier is a Community carrier. This means a carrier with a valid operating license granted by an EU state.
Despite the title of the Regulation, its impact is wider than denied boarding, as it also covers cancellations and delays.
Flight compensation amounts
You are entitled to claim compensation if your flight is cancelled. The amounts stipulated are:
- €250 (£217) for flights under 1500 kilometres (932 miles - short haul)
- €400 (£347) for all longer flights within EU, and for all other flights between 1500 kilometres (932 miles) and 3500 kilometres (2175 miles - medium haul)
- €600 (£521) for all other flights (long haul)
Distance is measured to the final destination.
Compensation is reduced by 50% if the ultimate arrival time is within two hours for short haul flights, within three hours for medium haul flights and within four hours for long haul flights.
Compensation can be paid by cash, bank transfer or cheque. Only if the passenger agrees can it be paid in travel vouchers or other services.
Reimbursing you
Where this right arises, you are entitled to reimbursement within seven days, of the full costs of the ticket at the price at which it was bought for the part of the journey not made (and the parts already made if they are then useless).
Where relevant, you are also entitled to the earliest possible return flight to the point of departure or rerouting to the final destination at the earliest opportunity or, if you prefer, at a later date.
Free refreshments, accommodation and calls
Where this applies you are entitled to the following:
- suitable meals and refreshments
- hotel accommodation
- transport transfers to and from the hotel
- two free telephone calls, faxes or emails
Carriers are required to pay special attention to the need of disabled and unaccompanied children.
Flight cancellations
If a flight is cancelled, a carrier must offer to reimburse you or reroute you, either on the next available flight or on an agreed date, plus provide any meals/refreshments/telephone calls.
If rerouting involved departing the following day or later, you are entitled to hotel accommodation if necessary.
In addition, you are entitled to compensation, unless you are told of the cancellation at least two weeks before departure, or rerouting will get you to your destination no more than two hours late.
There is an exception to the right to compensation if the carrier can prove that the cancellation is caused by extraordinary circumstances which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken.
Technical faults, unless they stem from events which, by their nature or origin, are not inherent in the normal exercise of the air carrier, do not count as examples of extraordinary circumstances.
Flight delay assistance
If your flight is delayed, to be entitled to meals, refreshments, phone calls and emails, a delay must be one of the following:
- at least two hours for a flight of 1500 kilometres (932 miles) or less
- three hours or more for all flights within the EU exceeding 1500 kilometres (932 miles)
- three hours for all other flights between 1500 kilometres (932 miles) and 3500 kilometres (2175 miles)
- more than four hours for all other flights
Such a delay will give you an automatic right to meals/refreshments and telephone calls. If a delay means your departure isn't until the following day, then you may be entitled to hotel accommodation.
Most significantly, if a delay is at least five hours, then the right to reimbursement comes into play.
Flight delay compensation
Following a ruling by the Court of Justice of the European Union in October 2012, if your flight is delayed you may be able to claim compensation.
But you can only claim compensation if the delay means you arrive at your destination more than three hours later than the original scheduled arrival time.
The compensation to which you are entitled will range from between €250 and €600, depending on the length of your flight.
However, for some long haul flights (eg more than 3,500 kilometres) compensation can be reduced by 50% if you arrive at your destination within four hours of the original scheduled arrival time.
There is an exception to the right to compensation if the carrier can prove that the cancellation is caused by extraordinary circumstances which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken.
Overbooked flights
Where a carrier expects to have to deny boarding to one or more passengers, it must first call for volunteers, in exchange for benefits.
If there are not enough volunteers, then the carrier can deny boarding to passengers against their will, but must then pay compensation, and give assistance.
If your airline refuses to compensate you
In the event of either a cancellation or flight delay, the first thing you must do is contact the airline directly, and make it known that you'll be claiming compensation.
If the flight operator doesn't resolve the matter, you should then contact the Civil Aviation Authority.
If your airline denies compensation for delay, refer them to the October 2012 Court of Justice of the European Union ruling, and tell your airline that you want them to reconsider your claim.
If they still refuse you should consider taking the matter to court. You have six years from when your flight was delayed to make a claim, so there is no need to rush to court now.
Package holidays
The Regulation also applies to flights that form part of a package holiday but the obligation under the Regulation will remain with the carrier.
If you're seeking reimbursement of your flight costs you will not be entitled to receive a full refund of your package holiday costs under the Regulation.
However, where the delay, cancellation or denied boarding constitutes a significant change to the package holiday as a whole, the normal rules under the Package Travel Regulations will apply.

The Warren County School Board's decision to no longer allow some non-resident students to attend Bowling Green Independent Schools with state funding is still stirring up controversy, with the city schools looking at appealing that decision to the Kentucky Commissioner of Education.
Tonight the county school board met in a special meeting to discuss possible litigation.
We just hope through this process that some agreement can be reached similar to what was reached in 2001, or something along those lines where some of the actions that have been contemplated judicially don't have to be taken," said concerned parent Chris Davenport.
During tonight's meeting, just before the board was about to go into their executive closed session to discuss litigation, we asked the board chairman before a room of Bowling Green parents, if they would be willing to reconsider their decision on the non-resident agreement.
"I appreciate everyone coming tonight to show support for what they believe in, now we have a job to do as a Warren County School Board. There is a possible litigation we have to discuss tonight, and that's what we're going to discuss. As far as being able to make a comment about anything else that may go along with that, we can't because of a possible lawsuit," said Warren County Board of Education Chairman Kerry Young.
Some of the parents at tonight's meeting say they had questions, and wish the decision weren't so sudden.
"They never gave us any information that this decision was coming, and have never done anything to help us through the decision that was made... we can't pick up our house and move in four months. If this were a phase in period where we could have two or three years to react, we could make our decision of what's best for our family," said concerned parent Mark Schafer.
Some of those questions they still have yet to get answers to tonight, they're hoping can be addressed in next week's May 21st meeting in Greenwood High school's auditorium.

can you add some more information about where we use md5 hash
All the places I've identified where we are using the crypto application:
- deps/gen_smtp uses crypto for SMTP TLS and HMAC, shouldn't be necessary for normal email sending
- capi_set_view_manager, xdc_rdoc_Replication_srv, xdc_vbucket_rep_ckpt use rand_uniform for generating random numbers
- couch_util uses crypto:rand_uniform to provide random numbers
- couch_uuids uses crypto:rand_uniform to generate UUIDs
- couch_db uses crypto:rand_uniform when looking up random docs
- CouchDB uses MD5 hashing
- couch_view_group keeps an MD5 hash of view functions to identify the view. We may not be using this. Check with Filipe.
- couch_httpd.erl uses MD5 for ETags
- Unused couch_stream (couchdb attachments) code uses MD5
- lhttpd uses crypto:rand_uniform
- The ouath library included, which I don't think we use, uses it for SHA1 HMAC
- Mochiweb uses it for random numbers (rand_bytes, rand_uniform)
- couch_server.erl/couch_httpd_auth.erl has a bad SHA1 based password hash, which I think we don't use
- couch_httpd_auth also uses a SHA1 HMAC to sign session cookies. Again, I don't think we use this.
- Some tests for unused CouchDB functionality pull in MD5 or rand_*
the reason why we want to stay away from openssl dependencies is that during the installation user has to install a specific version of openssl before couchase server installation.
ubuntu 12.04 repo for instance has a newer version of openssl but since couchbase is built on ubuntu 10.04 and uses earlier version of openssl user has to downgrade and download an earlier version which is not very convinient.
another reason why we dont want to depend on openssl is that we can not include this library in the rpm package due to export license restrictions and if we get rid of this dependency we can have a monolithic package that does not depend on anything externally
next step is to assign this to different teams one by one and assess how much work there is to remove these dependencies

MELBOURNE Jan 15 Five-times champion Serena Williams played well within herself in stifling conditions on Rod Laver Arena to advance to the third round of the Australian Open with a 6-1 6-2 victory over Serbia's Vesna Dolonc on Wednesday.
The victory was her 60th in the main draw at the Australian Open, which tied her with Margaret Court for the most wins at the tournament in the Open era.
With temperatures surpassing 40 Celsius (104 Fahrenheit) early on Wednesday, the 32-year-old American appeared content to expend as little energy as possible against the 104th-ranked Serb and anchored her play around the middle of the baseline and simply blasted Dolonc off court.
Williams won almost 90 percent of her first serve points and belted Dolonc's serve back past her seemingly at will to clinch victory in 63 minutes and set up a meeting with either Karolina Pliskova or Daniela Hantuchova in the third round.

Trying out some different shape combinations for the plate button. Not sure which one I want to go with yet for my site, any suggestions?
After making this I decided I'm going to create a resource pack with these. Expect to see different material variations this week or next week. I think it's going to be a total of these 8 shapes, with 16 materials as scaleable styles.

France's military intervention in Mali represented a shift in the country's foreign policy.
This story is based on a radio interview. Listen to the full interview.
Jennifer Cooke, director of the Africa Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said France had been reluctant to intervene, preferring instead to let the Economic Community of West African States address the situation in Mali.
But the advance of the rebel Islamic forces southward toward the capital Bamako may have been the turning point for the French, said Cooke.
The fear of a rebellion in the south of Mali threatens to turn the Sahel region into a haven for terrorists, drug traffickers, hostage takers, Cooke said, and could further destabilize neighboring countries of Niger and Mauritania.

I found this while searching for a bell, like a school bell. My wife is bedridden & I have hearing problems. Sometimes when she calls me I don't hear her so she rings me with a dinner bell, but often I don't hear it over the TV or if I'm in the kitchen doing dishes. This is much more practical as I can take the door bell out side when I'm in the yard & I'll know she needs something. It's also louder than her dinner bell & distinct so I know it's her & not a sound on TV similar to her dinner bell so no more false alarms ! I'm glad I read the package before I left the store as it comes with a battery for the push button, but the bell needs 2 size C batteries. I mounted the button on her bedside table so it's very convenient for her & the bell is in my office where I spend most of my time, but I take it with me when I'm working outside. We both like this better than the dinner bell & are completely satisfied with it. I'm going to get another for the front door & as it has 3 different ring tones, I'll know if it's her or a visitor !
I only bought this item. Well 2 of them so I could keep and ear out on my Dad. He has Term Cancer and instead of paying 40 dollars a month to get some one else to monitor him. These work good for that. I Velcro one button to the side of the Bathroom Cabinet and drilled two holes in the other one so I could feed a key chain ring through it for a necklace for him to keep on him I do not think he would aprove of me using the supplied hardware to attach it to his chest. lol. He has woke me up and got Mom and I attention from the computer room with the greatest of easy no Yelling over his TV that is set up to 52 or so on the Volume. One of the Buttons has a weak battery post which caused it to stop working within two days. But nothing JB Weld can not fix. For the Price these are perfect for me. But the Chimes do sound sick when you hear them playing together. I put one door chime in Moms Bedroom and carry one with me between the Computer room and the Bedroom I am using. Think of a third one so I do not have to remember to take it with me.
This is the best purchase I have made since I have lived in this house. I did not know that the wireless door bells were even made. I ordered my Honeywell Wireless Door Chime and Push Button and when it arrived I didn't have any C cell batteries and had to wait to install it until I purchased the batteries. It takes two C batteries so if you don't have any purchase them before your package arrives.
I got busy putting everything in its place........Then I rang my doorbell and it was great.....I didn't have any kind of doorbell and this was perfect. I used heavy duty sticky back Velcro to attach the Push Button at my back door because it is a little damp in that area sometimes and I wanted it to stay in place. Then I hung the small Honeywell Wireless Door Chime on a small nail. It just fits in and looks perfect. It didn't take but a few minutes for installation and I did it myself.......
I purchased this along with A similair GE product. Decided to keep the GE doorbell because it had 32 chime options from Happy Birthday to Christmas songs.
great doorbell, easy to use, to install,3 different sound chimes
wireless set up is great.
We have this on out older ranch house, that no one wanted to drill into the brick to wire in a door bell. So instead of gettting up and down to check the door because the dogs barked/no one there, this wireless door bell and chime solves that problem.
No electrician needed.
Wouldn't work within the house, a distance of about 50 feet. I bought three of them to use as signaling devices. Closer range OK.
This wireless door chime had a range of less than a foot. I tried it with every different setting and a brand new set of batteries and it would only ring the bell if the units were aligned perfectly and within a foot of each other.
Super easy set up, just needed 2 C batteries and it was ready to go. Like the option of a number of door bell sounds. The sounds were not brassy and hard on the nerves, but more mellow and not harsh sounding. Very pleased with it, and would order it again, wish I would have known about this sooner. Will be telling all my friends in apartments to order this as it sure makes life a lot easier. No need to question if that was "someone at the door" and go to check. Forget straining your ears to hear when this makes it clear if there is anyone there. Save the anxiety and extra trips to the door to find you just missed someone, or there was simply no one there. Relax and let the door bell do the work.
I have not been able to try this out yet because the back plastic cover broke when trying to put in the battery. However, I plan to exchange it and hope this next one is not defective so keep your receipt. After comparison shopping, it seems to be the best deal for the price. The only other issue I'm not happy about is it requires 2 C batteries and a 12V 23A battery (which is really hard to find but it did come with one). I usually purchase my batteries at the Dollar Store and my local Dollar Store does not even carry these, so I'm sure they will be quite expensive to buy. Hopefully the next one won't break when trying to pop the cover off.
Walmart's Item Description show me 'It uses AA batteries', so I choose this.
But this door chime need C size batteries, And bell push need 23A batteries...
If they described it, I didn't order this item. Instead of I would orderd Honeywell RCWL105A1003/N plug-in wireless door chime and paid $3.00 more...
Anyhow this product is nice & easy...
I run an Electronic cigarette store out of my garage but sometimes I have to be in the house so I placed the bell button over a sign that says "Please ring bell for service" and I have the receiver with me inside the house, if any costumer arrives they ring the bell and I go out to serve them.
Apparently you have to press the button in a certain way (which I haven't figured out yet), for it to ring. Several times when I've tried it, nothing has happened, though it does work sometimes. I'm very disappointed, as I missed a very important delivery the first week I had it.
OK if you have no electrical outlets for the chime unit. I prefer the similar Honeywell unit that is wireless and the chime plugs into an electrical outlet. The chime is nice and loud but has no volume control. The only other drawback is the 2 "C" batt required for the chime.
Returned and bought a GE for about same price. Works great.
This seems to have good range. We've tested from the garage into the house with the doors closed, and it still goes off. The tones are okay - not too great sounding, but since it's recorded, it's about what I would expect. We had to drill holes ourselves to hang it. If you don't have a drill, there is some sticky tape stuff, but that fell down after one day. It does have little spaces to drill, and it includes screws.
I just got my door bell put up and it works just fine. Was easy to put up and the sound is loud enough to hear all over the house. I just hope that if rain blows under the porch that it doesn't ruin my door bell button like the last one I had. By the way it does not use double AA batteries like it says. It uses 2 C batteries and the door bell button comes with its own battery.
I was expecting since I live in an apartment and I am over 50 feet from where push was placed that it wouldn't work...but it does! I also love the fact that there are numerous chimes to choose from. It's great that they include the battery and the double sided sticky for push. Very simple to install!

Nissan developing electric and plug-in hybrids for 2010
Apparently, in addition to the new hybrid car that Nissan is developing, they will also be building a fully battery-powered electric car. The Japanese paper Nihon Keizai Shimbun is reporting that a subcompact electric equipped with lithium-ion batteries is on the way by 2010. The car is expected to have a range of about 120 miles on a charge. That's about double the range of the HyperMini EV they had recently killed off. The new in-house developed hybrid may also be a plug-in model.

A typographic music video combining our obsession with fonts, archive NASA photographs, esoteric diagrams and the darkly comic cold war atmosphere of Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove. With a nod to the iconic film titles of Pablo Ferro and Saul Bass, we set out to create a film that supported the playful art-pop of the words and music.
The band Gramme return after more than a decade of silence – no gigs, no music, no nothing – with their debut album Fascination. The cult around the band and their lone release, the Pre-Release EP, continued to grow until in 2011 some mysterious 12" bootlegs of Like U began to appear, with edits by Joe Goddard of Hot Chip.
With three new 4 track E.P.s already on the shelves this year, reportedly selling out before the dust had time to settle, Gramme's first full-length studio album is now scheduled for release in February on Tim 'Love' Lee's Tummy Touch Records.

Jefferies downgrades AMRI following this morning's announcement that Barr Labs (BRL) and Teva (TEVA) are launching (at risk) generic Allegra tablets. Firm notes that while the court case related to BRL's Paragraph IV challenge is still in discovery, the decision to launch the generic in the United States will destroy the U.S. portion of sales. In turn, they believe the reduction in U.S. sales, as distributors ramp up generic inventory and bleed off the brand -- over the next several months, should significantly dampen the Allegra royalty to AMRI.

It has been reported that the Chilean has been lined up to succeed current City manager Roberto Mancini, whose position at the Etihad Stadium has come under the spotlight following a hugely disappointing season.
According to reports, Mancini, whose team lost the FA Cup final to Wigan at the weekend, could even be sacked before the Blues take on Reading on Tuesday night.
However, Pellegrini insists he has no deal in place with any club for next season and is currently focused only on trying to help Malaga secure a Europa League place.
"I deny here and now being the new coach of Manchester City, I haven't signed any agreement with anybody," Pellegrini told reporters following Malaga's goalless Primera Division draw with Sevilla in quotes reported on his club's official website.
"I've been fortunate enough, and very proud, that every year the big clubs have shown an interest in me.
"I have an agreement with Malaga not to talk to anyone and nothing has been agreed with any other club.
"I hope in the coming weeks that things will become a little clearer what is going to be the future here at this club."

Re: Internal vs External -- The Discussion?

different philosophy between east and west. the west adapts the environment to human needs. the east adapts human needs to the environment. the west built and created things to make life easier to live. the east tried to live with the environment. when east met west, the east adapted western technology and some of the philosophy; however, at the core, especially to martial artists or arts that spanned generations, the eastern philosophy still held at its core. my aikido teacher also does kyudo. he has two bows. one made out of fiber glass composite material and one made out of bamboo. as the advance in technology progress, the fiber glass bow can be mass produced which would make the bamboo bow making obsolete. fewer folks as year go by know how to make bow out of bamboo. then you got to ask, why would one want to study and use bow, when a gun is much better as a projectile weapon? same goes with sword making in modern technology age. the old ways are tedious and time consumming and so many way to mess up. same goes with IP/IS training. it tedious and time consumming and so many way to do thing wrong.
you know who else also good as keeping secrets? your grandma and/or your mom. there are cooking recipes that they won't tell folks, not even their own children or grand children. or they might told you about it, but you weren't interested in cooking so you don't care and end up not knowing.
Then why should I look at IP/IS stuff? What's the payoff if it is just obsolete technology?

The trial of 94 Islamists accused of plotting against the United Arab Emirates began Monday in the absence of rights activists and foreign reporters, who according to witnesses were barred from the court.
The Federal Supreme Court, which also acts as state security court, convened in Abu Dhabi to try the activists arrested between March and December last year.
The accused are said by prosecutors to be linked to the Al-Islah group, which has ties with the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood.
UAE attorney general Salem Kobaish last month said the defendants would be tried for "having created and led a movement aimed at opposing the basic foundations on which the state's political system is built and at seizing power".
The group had formed a "secret organisation" which was in contact with individuals and organisations "abroad", including the Muslim Brotherhood, Kobaish said.
The attorney general said they had also created or invested in real estate companies to finance their organisation.
Relatives posted pictures on Twitter of representatives of human rights organisations standing outside the court building after allegedly being denied entry as observers.
Amnesty International said a Kuwaiti lawyer representing it as an observer was denied entry into the UAE.
"By denying access to observers from human rights groups, the UAE authorities are blatantly trying to manage what information is made available about the trial to the outside world," Amnesty International said.
The Kuwaiti lawyer, Ahmad Nashmi al-Dhafeeri, wrote on his Twitter account that he was sent back from the airport.
"I was prevented today from entering the UAE to monitor the trial of those accused of plotting to overthrow the government as a delegate for Amnesty International," Dhafeeri wrote on his Twitter account late Sunday.

Mom's Dragon Soup
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 1 hr
This is one of my favorite soups to make because it is flavorful, relatively quick, and inexpensive. My mom found this recipe in a community cookbook a few years back, and we've been loving it ever since! You can substitute spices or even add things, kind of like Stone Soup... this is just the basic recipe which is easiest to branch out from. You can microwave or cook on the stovetop, which makes it flexible! This is the perfect New Year's late lunch or after-Easter dinner since the leftover ham is a main ingredient. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 sunday dinner ham bone
- ham, pieces
- 1 (16 ounce) package dried split peas
- 1⁄4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- spices
- In a large saucepan or stock pot, boil water and split peas until desired consistency.
- The question to ask is,"Is it soup yet?.
- "Place pre-cooked ham pieces and hambone, cayenne pepper and salt to taste in the pea soup and simmer for 1 hour, or until desired consistency.
- Serve piping hot with french bread and butter!
- Delicious!

P.S. I just put in my review but forgot to hit the stars. Here are 5*s! sorry! Glitter
I really can`t rate this for the recipe is so basic and what I did was what made it 5 stars. I used 16 ounces of dried peas, 2 cups chopped ham, 1 diced carrot, 2 diced celery, 1 cup diced onions, 2 tablespoon roasted garlic, dried mix of herbs and 8 cups of home made chicken stock that I had frozen. I had no problem using this recipe but for those new to cooking need to know exact amounts. I served with rye bread.

Lafourche Education Foundation hosts record-breaking fund-raiser
Published: Tuesday, April 10, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 11, 2007 at 12:04 a.m.
The Lafourche Education Foundation took in $100,000 in donations from individuals and local businesses at the organization's gala fund-raiser Tuesday night.
Through two sets of grants $500 grants to individual teachers and $5,000 grants for specific, school-wide initiatives the foundation endeavors to provide what the school board cannot.
Its what its supposed to be, said Lafourche School Board spokesman Floyd Benoit. The foundation is the community helping out and pitching in to take care of extra things.
The grants, which teachers and schools can apply for in May, are intended to supplement and enhance the efforts of Lafourche educators in local classrooms. The goal is an improved academic environment for students.
If a community focuses on public education, public education gets better, said Charlotte Bollinger, a founding member of the foundations Board of Directors.

IT WAS A POWERFUL moment last week when TV talk host Oprah Winfrey looked straight into the camera and warned Rihanna, "If a man hits you once, he will hit you again."
But the pop princess singer apparently isn't ready to accept Winfrey's advice. Singer Chris Brown and Rihanna reportedly are still a couple and according to her lawyer, she doesn't want Brown to be prohibited from seeing her while he awaits trial for battery.
I once had a friend whose boyfriend beat her with a belt. When she refused to leave him, it doomed our friendship. I couldn't understand why she stayed and I let her know it.

I'm seeing an increasing number of blogs when in order to comment, you have to be logged in.
Does asking would-be commentors to jump through this hoop justify itself in a reduction in comment spam ? And if it does, is that reduction worth having less 'drive-by' comments ?
(Fwiw, for blogs where I comment a lot, I register. For other blogs, this is effectively a barrier)

Just a quick note...I'm here in downtown Seattle and I've just come out of the final keynote for TechReady5, Microsoft's own "internal TechEd". It's been a great week with a wonderful look at all the technologies that we have, and a little of what's to come in the future. Unfortunately, I can't share much of the detail with any of you, but I did take some photo's (below) so you can at least have a peak at what the event looks like - actually, it looks just like TechEd ;-) - just that the content is for internal employee consumption only.
Massive 1080p x 2 digital screens on either side of the main stage. Really amazing real-time super-high resolution video technology here. Definitely a highlight.
Norm Judah, the Microsoft Executive sponsor for TechReady, delivering the keynote.
And speaking of Norm Judah....here we are at the TechReady5 party for that candid group party shot. The guilty parties from left to right are me (I'd be the tall one), Norm Judah (no introduction required), Victor Leong (Solution Specialist for Security & Management, Microsoft Malaysia) and Cheng See Tan (Solution Specialist for Application Platform, Microsoft Malaysia)
Kevin Turner addressing the troops at the keynote. I really enjoyed his session. Who says a sales guy can't address a technical audience, huh. ;-)
Don't forget the audio engineer that drove it all from the classic Yamaha PM5D digital mixer (didn't look like a V2 though). Ah, you're mixing digital or you're not mixing at all. ;-P
Here I am at the TechReady5 welcome reception... and a chance to mix and mingle with all our colleagues from around the world...
For those that haven't seen it before, downtown Seattle where the conference center is located. This shot was from the Specialists Managers lunch session out of the Seattle Harbor Club.

GERMANY/JAPAN: Fuso and Nissan agree gutsy light truck cooperation
By Graeme Roberts | 8 November 2012
Daimler's Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (MFTBC) and Nissan Motor have signed an agreement for reciprocal supply of light duty trucks in Japan. Say hello to the Canter Guts.
The German automaker will expand Fuso's line in the segment of trucks below 5 tons GVW. New light duty trucks will be sold in Japan from 15 January, 2013.
The agreement is founded on the strategic partnership between Daimler AG and Renault-Nissan.
According to MFTBC president and CEO Albert Kirchmann: "Our latest achievement is the Fuso Canter Guts to be offered from 2013, which will 'round off' the bottom of our broad range of light trucks."
Fuso will offer the light-duty truck in Japan, rebadging Nissan's Atlas F24. Nissan will sell the Fuso Canter lght truck as the Nissan NT450 Atlas. Initially, the mutual deliveries scope will total about 1,300 units.
"The goal of the cooperation between MFTBC and Nissan is to utilise the expertise of both manufacturers with a view to bolstering the business with light-duty trucks in Japan. The present agreement on reciprocal supply of trucks will enable both partners to expand their truck assortment, realise economies of scale and achieve savings in development costs. This will lead to increased efficiency and productivity for both sides," they said in a statement.

Hi there. I'm currently using a 2 col theme at my site (http://www.avalon5.com) - "Howl @ The Moon!" but I desperately need to move to a decent three column design which utilises the full width of the screen at 1024x.
I've browsed the codex but nothing there really grabbed my attention, so now I'm asking here in the hopes that someone has taken an existing 3 col theme and made it better, or has created their own 3 col theme which isn't in the codex.
Can anyone recommend a theme for me please? I really need to update the look at my site but I'm struggling to find a theme good enough or adaptable enough. Thanks in advance.

House Republicans Question Sequestration's Impacts On National Parks Despite Obvious Cuts Already Occurring
Republicans at a hearing in the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee yesterday questioned the effects of sequestration on national parks. Committee members slammed National Park Service Director Jon Jarvis for overplaying the impacts on parks. As Greenwire reported:
Several Republican lawmakers—including [Rep. Darrell] Issa [(R-CA), chairman of the committee]—also accused Jarvis of exaggerating the effects of sequestration in the months before it went into effect.
Issa hit Jarvis for his statements about the "draconian effects of sequestration," claiming that "'a whistle-blower' has told the committee that a few parks indicated sequestration wouldn't affect services at all." Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) accused Jarvis of making "a political statement" by highlighting only the famous places that are being impacted.
Yet the on-the-ground facts show that the predictions are actually playing out. National parks across the country are facing $153.4 million in cuts due to sequestration. As Climate Progress has previously reported, this means national park superintendents are forced to make tough decisions about their employees' livelihoods—for example, nearly 1,000 seasonal employees will not be hired this summer.
Here are some of America's national parks that are already cutting jobs and closing areas because of sequestration:
– Maine's Acadia National Park will open many of its popular sites including visitors' centers a month later than normal. The news "disappointed" nearby businesses, which make money off of tourists visiting the park.
– Several campgrounds along the Blueridge Parkway—America's most visited national park unit—will close for the season. Other sites that will close include concession areas, picnic sites, and a few visitors' centers.
– The James A. Garfield National Historic Site in Ohio has closed on Sundays (one of its busiest days), as well as Mondays and federal holidays. The park unit will save money on utilities and because must pay higher salaries on Sundays. Over 300,000 people visit the site every year.
– The Flight 93 Memorial in Pennsylvania will start its longer summer hours on May 1st, a month later than usual. It will also offer fewer interpretative programs.
– Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota has closed its famous Painted Canyon scenic overlook to save money on the costs of staff, utilities, and custodial services. Last year 300,000 vehicles stopped at the area to catch a glimpse of the badlands where Theodore Roosevelt once ranched.
In contrast to the harsh and unnecessary cuts forced by sequestration, President Obama's budget requests an increase for the budget of the National Park Service, to ensure that visitors are well-taken care of at our national parks.
And yet, if changes are not made soon, additional impacts will be felt. As Jarvis said at yesterday's hearing, sequestration will cause "every park activity [to] be affected and impacts will continue to accumulate over time."

They want to privatise National Parks-never forget that, and do not believe any lies that state otherwise.
Just how is this austerity supposed to be helping your economy? It is patently a nonsense theory and has the added disadvantage that it is cutting people off from enjoying natural beauty, one of the few remaining bastions of sanity, ME
As the previous speculative bubble was inflating during the noughties, as financial malfeasance was becoming so apparent and regulatory inactivity so blatant, a number of those correctly predicting a Big Bust (but nowhere near as big as the next one, coming soon)also observed that the calamity would be used as an excuse to screw down on society, increase inequality further, drive down wages and conditions and loot every remaining public asset, including land ie National Parks, wildernesses and monuments. And thus it has transpired. The neo-feudal project is in overdrive, with money being funneled to the rich and then into tax havens at an unprecedented rate, while austerity devastates one society after another.
My wife and I have waited a lifetime to see Glacier National Park. We just found that the campgrounds and visitor center will close the day after we arrive on September 1st due to the sequester. They said they were forced to close the "shoulder seasons" which is the best time to see fall color.

Global oil prices steadied Friday at the end of a volatile week that was marked by mostly upbeat US economic data, fears over a Chinese credit crunch and the potential end of the Federal Reserve's economic stimulus.
Brent North Sea crude for delivery in August gained six cents to $102.88 per barrel in London late afternoon deals.
New York's main contract, West Texas Intermediate light sweet crude for August, eased two cents to $97.03 a barrel.
"This week was mostly macro driven; volumes are very thin and we are simply benefiting from firmer equity markets as concerns over China eased," said VTB Capital analyst Andrey Kryuchenkov.
"The People's Bank of China has also been seeking to calm markets over liquidity concerns, helping sentiment a little."
He added: "At the same time the upside will also be limited given recent demand fears and the comfortable long-term supply cushion."
Crude oil fell at the start of the week on economic stimulus concerns surrounding the United States and China, the world's two biggest consumers of crude.
Markets were rocked by concern over the possible withdrawal of Fed stimulus and the emergence of a liquidity crisis in China, dealers said.
Global stock markets had already slumped last week after the Fed had signalled that it might soon begin winding down its massive bond-buying policy, known as quantitative easing (QE).
A crisis in the Chinese banking system, which has caused lenders to put the brakes on loans, added to the pressure.
However, New York rebounded sharply on Monday after a leak forced the closure of Canadian pipelines, raising concerns about US supply disruptions.
Prices rose modestly Tuesday after a rash of positive US economic data underpinned hopes for stronger growth in the world's largest economy.
They advanced further on Wednesday, mirroring a rally in equity markets, despite news that the Commerce Department slashed the estimate of first quarter US economic growth from 2.4 percent to 1.8 percent.
Crude futures extended gains on Thursday on the back of more upbeat US economic data and easing concerns over China's liquidity crisis.
The market rose further on Friday as dealers digested more upbeat US data and comments from a Federal Reserve official that its stimulus programme will not end soon.
In a coordinated effort, several Fed officials over the past two days stressed in speeches and briefings that markets had over-reacted to last week's Fed announcement that it could begin tapering its QE programme later this year.

the tower in the distance is Dar's new port watch tower, they direct ships from above.
Kempinski hotel... expensive name... not yet been inside to confirm if it really is all that.
smart design... outside walls are decorated with plants and sun coverings... maybe there is a name for that... no idea... but it surely reduces radiant heat transfer
1km from my hotel and you get this lovely scene... that is the Indian Ocean
New Africa Hotel pool... looks tempting... want to take a dip?
from the roof of the New Africa... I climbed a rarely used rickety metal ladder up the elevator shaft.. don't tell anyone...
out my hotel room window

I shouldn't have complimented the peacock

low tide at the beach... the seaweed takes on a consistency that is reminiscent of something that may accumulate in a baby diaper
ice cream salesman - not yet tried his offerings..
the rocks have all sorts of surprises... aroudn this corner I found a guy jump-roping in the shade
he stopped to ask what is that... I then showed him my camera.. a few minutes later his friend came to lay on the cardboard and smoke some medical marijuana, I guessed he is from California, as there are many people with all sorts of medical issues smoking medical marijuana on the beach

Are you the only one haunted by an association between an actor's real name and a D list rockabilly star's nom-du-rock?
Yeah, probably.
Nope, I've thought about it too.
There will only be one Beef for me and that's Sleepy.
Nope, I've thought about it too.
There will only be one Beef for me and that's Sleepy.
The Stranger just gave me my morning LOLz
I'm pleased to know I'm not the only one.
I wasn't ready for LaBeef this early in the morning.
As a middle aged man, when I have my little jealous moments, it pleases me to think that Shia may end up looking a lot like Sleepy in another 20 or 30 years.
I always get him confused with this actor, the white Cosby kid.
Roger @ 1: Aw c'mon Roger. Sleepy is at least a B-list rockabilly guy.
I don't know Sleepy or his music, but when paired with the picture above, I'm extremely endered to him based solely on what his picture exudes that the picture of Shia does not.

News UW Officially Announces CIA Program to Students
posted by August 14 at 13:52 PMon
The University of Washington has officially announced that a CIA agent will be on campus next year.
Dr. Tim Thomas will teach 133t haxxor skills to students enrolled in UW's information school.
I wrote about Thomas's class a few weeks ago. You can check out the story here and the program website here.
In 1991, students and faculty at Seattle University protested after the school offered a CIA officer temporary position in the school's history department. The school later rescinded its job offer.
Classes at UW start September 24th.
