Hope soared that Telluride would be scenic setting for a proposed Hallmark Channel drama series titled When Calls the Heart, but the excitement was dashed by the producers' decision to film the series in Canada.
The story broke In May, when the producers of the series – described as a sort of Little House on the Prairie set in a historic mining town – proposed building a film-set recreation of Telluride as it appeared in the early 1900s on a Superfund mining reclamation site owned by the Idarado Mining Company and controlled by San Miguel County.
The show's producers –Brian Bird, Michael Landon, Jr. (son of the star and producer of the Little House on the Prairie series), and Brad Krevoy (the producer of Dumb and Dumber, which was filmed in Colorado) – said they would spend about $8 million in Telluride over the summer, filming six episodes and hiring locals for much of the set construction and some of the parts.
If, after season one, it was extended for an additional seven episodes, Bird estimated were that approximately $17 million would be spent in San Miguel County and Telluride over the year, providing up to a thousand new jobs and injecting $75 million into the local economy over the next five years.
State and local officials including Gov. John Hickenlooper, State Film Commissioner Donald Zuckerman, Telluride Mayor Stu Fraser and Telluride Film Commission co-founder Tim Territo worked hard to make the dream a reality.
The state's newly boosted film incentives had made Colorado a more appealing location for film and television producers, Hickenlooper said in June.
"All eyes are on Telluride with this project right now," Telluride Town Manager Greg Clifton said that same month.
But Idarado officials said, at a May meeting with the San Miguel County Commissioners, that for the project to move forward, the production company would have to obtain consent waivers from 37 homeowners in the Idarado Legacy subdivision. That proved a deal breaker, and sent Frontier Productions exploring for other possible sites in the area for the show. In July, the commissioners offered up a site in Ilium; the picturesque ghost town of Alta, just south of Telluride, was also considered.
In August, Hallmark Channel pulled the plug. Production company officers suggested that mounting costs for filming in San Miguel County were a problem, and opted to film the series in Vancouver, British Columbia, instead.
"While this project did not end up here, we have been shown to the state and members of the film industry to be willing to go to the extremes, to support virtually any of the requests put forth," said Fraser. Working with Hallmark generated new collaborations between the Town of Telluride, the U.S. Forest Service, private businesses and homeowners, the Colorado Film and Tourism Commission and the Governor's office, said Fraser.
Keeping his eye on the future, Fraser added, "Not being part of this series is not the end of our film exposure."

Mayer was there for a church unity meeting with some others from New Life Christian Cathedral when it happened. He said even though his body was in the restaurant, he himself was with the Lord.
And there, God told him, "It will start at home and it will start with the church."
So on Aug. 17, Mayer will spearhead a citywide revival at Zinn Park, which he says will begin the unification of all the churches in Anniston.
"This is just the beginning of the great revival of this city. It's going to be a great day to be alive, to see, to be a part of a great day in history. On the 17th, Anniston will never be the same," he said.
Mayer said the area has deteriorated since he first came to Anniston in 1999. Problems with racial stigma and city official strong-holding have challenged the city, he said, and changes need to be made.
"The problem is principality brings stigma in," he said. "We're fighting against each other and our children are dying in the streets."
Mayer said one way the Model City can regenerate is for people of faith to join together, but unfortunately, many of the churches aren't on good terms with each other.
"We have pastors who have never shaken hands, never called each other, and we're all brothers," Mayer said. "People need to see us come together."
The revival will be the jumpstart Anniston needs to unify once again, Mayer said. More than 10 churches have already agreed to participate in the event.
"We have churches coming that haven't bothered with each other before. We've spent enough time inside. Our time needs to be spent outside the (church) walls," he said.
The revival will start at 8 a.m. with breakfast for all participating pastors at Smith Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church in Anniston. There they will be able to sit together, talk and get to know one another, Mayer said. A short service will follow with a line of speakers from 10 a.m.-2 p.m., including Anniston Mayor Vaughn Stewart.
"It's more like a family reunion," Mayer said, mentioning there will be food and entertainment. Even the Anniston Fire Department will be there.
Mayer said he first spoke with God seven months ago but didn't start planning the revival until last month because he originally didn't believe he could.
"It took me a month and a half because I didn't think I was worthy enough to do something God wanted me to do," he said. "If I had done it myself I would have messed it up."
Mayer said he finally realized God was looking for someone like him, someone with a past in the city.
"It took someone like me," he said. "I'm a convicted felon. I've been on drugs. I've been an alcoholic. I see the bigger picture now. I'll never go back. I'll do anything the church asks me to."
Even though he worships with New Life Christian Cathedral, Mayer said the revival was not New Life's idea, but God's.
"Anniston and Alabama are a funnel of what God wants us to do. He's doing the shifting. We're going to rise up like a phoenix from the ashes. It's going to start in Anniston — the love — and spread to Oxford and Jacksonville. This city is going to be the city that the world is going to look to."

NSFetchedResultsController Class Reference
|Inherits from
|Conforms to
Available in iOS 3.0 and later.
|Companion guide
|Declared in
You use a fetched results controller to efficiently manage the results returned from a Core Data fetch request to provide data for a
UITableView object.
While table views can be used in several ways, fetched results controllers are primarily intended to assist you with a master list view.
UITableView expects its data source to provide cells as an array of sections made up of rows. You configure a fetch results controller using a fetch request that specifies the entity, an array containing at least one sort ordering, and optionally a filter predicate. The fetched results controller efficiently analyzes the result of the fetch request and computes all the information about sections in the result set. It also computes all the information for the index based on the result set.
In addition, fetched results controllers provide the following features:
Optionally monitor changes to objects in the associated managed object context, and report changes in the results set to its delegate (see "The Controller's Delegate").
Optionally cache the results of its computation so that if the same data is subsequently re-displayed, the work does not have to be repeated (see "The Cache").
A controller thus effectively has three modes of operation, determined by whether it has a delegate and whether the cache file name is set.
No tracking: the delegate is set to
The controller simply provides access to the data as it was when the fetch was executed.
Memory-only tracking: the delegate is non-
niland the file cache name is set to
The controller monitors objects in its result set and updates section and ordering information in response to relevant changes.
Full persistent tracking: the delegate and the file cache name are non-
The controller monitors objects in its result set and updates section and ordering information in response to relevant changes. The controller maintains a persistent cache of the results of its computation.
Using NSFetchedResultsController
Creating the Fetched Results Controller
You typically create an instance of
NSFetchedResultsController as an instance variable of a table view controller. When you initialize the fetch results controller, you provide four parameters:
A fetch request. This must contain at least one sort descriptor to order the results.
A managed object context. The controller uses this context to execute the fetch request.
Optionally, a key path on result objects that returns the section name. The controller uses the key path to split the results into sections (passing
nilindicates that the controller should generate a single section).
Optionally, the name of the cache file the controller should use (passing
nilprevents caching). Using a cache can avoid the overhead of computing the section and index information.
After creating an instance, you invoke
performFetch: to actually execute the fetch.
NSManagedObjectContext *context = <#Managed object context#>;
NSFetchRequest *fetchRequest = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init];
// Configure the request's entity, and optionally its predicate.
NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"<#Sort key#>" ascending:YES];
NSArray *sortDescriptors = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:sortDescriptor, nil];
[fetchRequest setSortDescriptors:sortDescriptors];
[sortDescriptors release];
[sortDescriptor release];
NSFetchedResultsController *controller = [[NSFetchedResultsController alloc]
cacheName:@"<#Cache name#>"];
[fetchRequest release];
NSError *error;
BOOL success = [controller performFetch:&error];
The Controller's Delegate
If you set a delegate for a fetched results controller, the controller registers to receive change notifications from its managed object context. Any change in the context that affects the result set or section information is processed and the results are updated accordingly. The controller notifies the delegate when result objects change location or when sections are modified (see
NSFetchedResultsControllerDelegate). You typically use these methods to update the display of the table view.
The Cache
Where possible, a controller uses a cache to avoid the need to repeat work performed in setting up any sections and ordering the contents. The cache is maintained across launches of your application.
When you initialize an instance of
NSFetchedResultsController, you typically specify a cache name. (If you do not specify a cache name, the controller does not cache data.) When you create a controller, it looks for an existing cache with the given name:
If the controller can't find an appropriate cache, it calculates the required sections and the order of objects within sections. It then writes this information to disk.
If it finds a cache with the same name, the controller tests the cache to determine whether its contents are still valid. The controller compares the current entity name, entity version hash, sort descriptors, and section key-path with those stored in the cache, as well as the modification date of the cached information file and the persistent store file.
If the cache is consistent with the current information, the controller reuses the previously-computed information.
If the cache is not consistent with the current information, then the required information is recomputed, and the cache updated.
Any time the section and ordering information change, the cache is updated.
If you have multiple fetched results controllers with different configurations (different sort descriptors and so on), you must give each a different cache name.
You can purge a cache using
Implementing the Table View Datasource Methods
You ask the object to provide relevant information in your implementation of the table view data source methods:
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView {
return [[<#Fetched results controller#> sections] count];
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)table numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
if ([[<#Fetched results controller#> sections] count] > 0) {
id <NSFetchedResultsSectionInfo> sectionInfo = [[<#Fetched results controller#> sections] objectAtIndex:section];
return [sectionInfo numberOfObjects];
} else
return 0;
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
UITableViewCell *cell = <#Get the cell#>;
NSManagedObject *managedObject = [<#Fetched results controller#> objectAtIndexPath:indexPath];
// Configure the cell with data from the managed object.
return cell;
- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
if ([[<#Fetched results controller#> sections] count] > 0) {
id <NSFetchedResultsSectionInfo> sectionInfo = [[<#Fetched results controller#> sections] objectAtIndex:section];
return [sectionInfo name];
} else
return nil;
- (NSArray *)sectionIndexTitlesForTableView:(UITableView *)tableView {
return [<#Fetched results controller#> sectionIndexTitles];
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView sectionForSectionIndexTitle:(NSString *)title atIndex:(NSInteger)index {
return [<#Fetched results controller#> sectionForSectionIndexTitle:title atIndex:index];
Responding to Changes
In general,
NSFetchedResultsController is designed to respond to changes at the model layer, by informing its delegate when result objects change location or when sections are modified.
If you allow a user to reorder table rows, then your implementation of the delegate methods must take this into account—see
Changes are not reflected until after the controller's managed object context has received a
processPendingChanges message. Therefore, if you change the value of a managed object's attribute so that its location in a fetched results controller's results set would change, its index as reported by the controller would typically not change until the end of the current event cycle (when
processPendingChanges is invoked). For example, the following code fragment would log "same":
NSFetchedResultsController *frc = <#A fetched results controller#>;
NSManagedObject *managedObject = <#A managed object in frc's fetchedObjects array#>;
NSIndexPath *beforeIndexPath = [frc indexPathForObject:managedObject];
[managedObject setSortKeyAttribute:
<#A new value that changes managedObject's position in frc's fetchedObjects array#>;
NSIndexPath *afterIndexPath = [frc indexPathForObject:managedObject];
if ([beforeIndexPath compare:afterIndexPath] == NSOrderedSame) {
Modifying the Fetch Request
You cannot simply change the fetch request to modify the results. If you want to change the fetch request, you must:
If you are using a cache, delete it (using
Typically you should not use a cache if you are changing the fetch request.
Change the fetch request.
Handling Object Invalidation
When a managed object context notifies the fetched results controller that individual objects are invalidated, the controller treats these as deleted objects and sends the proper delegate calls.
It's possible for all the objects in a managed object context to be invalidated simultaneously. (For example, as a result of calling
reset, or if a store is removed from the the persistent store coordinator.) When this happens,
NSFetchedResultsController does not invalidate all objects, nor does it send individual notifications for object deletions. Instead, you must call
performFetch: to reset the state of the controller then reload the data in the table view (
iOS Version Issues
There are several known issues and behavior changes with
NSFetchedResultsController on various releases of iOS.
iOS 4.0 and Later
On iOS 4.0 and later,
NSFetchedResultsController does not silently correct results if you reuse the same cache for multiple controllers.
On iOS 4.0 and later,
NSFetchedResultsControllerdoes not perform some checks that would detect when you erroneously use the same cache for multiple controllers. (This derives from an optimization that can help avoid complex string matching on launch.) If you reuse the same cache for multiple controllers, you will get incorrect results.
iOS 3.2 and Later
On iOS 3.2 and later, if the cache is stale or
nil, the controller attempts to calculate the section information directly in the database instead of fetching the objects. This isn't possible if the
sectionNameKeyPath includes any properties that are not persistent. In that case, the controller will fetch the objects to compute the sections.
Pre-iOS 4.0
Prior to iOS 4.0, there are a number of known issues with delegates handling callbacks. In many cases, you should just use
- (void)controllerDidChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller {
[self.tableView reloadData];
instead of per-row updates. For the best user experience, you are encouraged to check the OS version number and use the finer grained delegate methods only on devices running iOS 4.0 and later.
NSFetchedResultsController does not support sections being deleted as a result of a UI-driven change.
Subclassing Notes
You create a subclass of this class if you want to customize the creation of sections and index titles. You override
sectionIndexTitleForSectionName: if you want the section index title to be something other than the capitalized first letter of the section name. You override
sectionIndexTitles if you want the index titles to be something other than the array created by calling
sectionIndexTitleForSectionName: on all the known sections.

Declared In
The results of the fetch.
The value of the property is
nil if
performFetch: hasn't been called.
The results array only includes instances of the entity specified by the fetch request (

The managed object context used to fetch objects.
The controller registers to listen to change notifications on this context and properly update its result set and section information.
- Available in iOS 3.0 and later.
Declared In
The array of section index titles.
The default implementation returns the array created by calling
sectionIndexTitleForSectionName: on all the known sections. You should override this method if you want to return a different array for the section index.

Declared In
Instance Methods
Returns the index path of a given object.
- object
An object in the receiver's fetch results.
Return Value
The index path of object in the receiver's fetch results, or
nil if object could not be found.
Special Considerations
In versions of iOS before 3.2, this method raises an exception if object is not contained in the receiver's fetch results.
- Available in iOS 3.0 and later.
Declared In
Returns a fetch request controller initialized using the given arguments.
- fetchRequest
The fetch request used to get the objects.
The fetch request must have at least one sort descriptor. If the controller generates sections, the first sort descriptor in the array is used to group the objects into sections; its key must either be the same as sectionNameKeyPath or the relative ordering using its key must match that using sectionNameKeyPath.
- context
The managed object against which fetchRequest is executed.
- sectionNameKeyPath
A key path on result objects that returns the section name. Pass
nilto indicate that the controller should generate a single section.
The section name is used to pre-compute the section information.
If this key path is not the same as that specified by the first sort descriptor in fetchRequest, they must generate the same relative orderings. For example, the first sort descriptor in fetchRequest might specify the key for a persistent property; sectionNameKeyPath might specify a key for a transient property derived from the persistent property.
- name
The name of the cache file the receiver should use. Pass
nilto prevent caching.
Pre-computed section info is cached to a private directory under this name. If Core Data finds a cache stored with this name, it is checked to see if it matches the fetchRequest. If it does, the cache is loaded directly—this avoids the overhead of computing the section and index information. If the cached information doesn't match the request, the cache is deleted and recomputed when the fetch happens.
Return Value
The receiver initialized with the specified fetch request, context, key path, and cache name.
- Available in iOS 3.0 and later.
Declared In
Returns the object at the given index path in the fetch results.
- indexPath
An index path in the fetch results.
If indexPath does not describe a valid index path in the fetch results, an exception is raised.
Return Value
The object at a given index path in the fetch results.
- Available in iOS 3.0 and later.
Declared In
Executes the receiver's fetch request.
- error
If the fetch is not successful, upon return contains an error object that describes the problem.
Return Value
YES if the fetch executed successfully, otherwise
After executing this method, you can access the receiver's the fetched objects with the property
Special Considerations
This method returns
NO (and a suitable error in error) if the fetch request doesn't include a sort descriptor that uses the section name key path specified in

Declared In
Returns the section number for a given section title and index in the section index.
- title
The title of a section
- sectionIndex
The index of a section.
Return Value
The section number for the given section title and index in the section index
You would typically call this method when executing
tableView:sectionForSectionIndexTitle:atIndex: method.
- Available in iOS 3.0 and later.
Declared In
Returns the corresponding section index entry for a given section name.
- sectionName
The name of a section.
Return Value
The section index entry corresponding to the section with name sectionName.
The default implementation returns the capitalized first letter of the section name.
You should override this method if you need a different way to convert from a section name to its name in the section index.
Special Considerations
You only need this method if you use a section index.

Federal assistance helps students and families pay for postsecondary education through several policy tools--grant and loan programs authorized by title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 and more recently enacted tax preferences. In fiscal year 2004, about $14 billion in grants and $56 billion in loans were made under title IV while estimated outlay equivalents for postsecondary tax preferences amounted to $10 billion. In light of the relative newness and financial significance of tax preferences, this report examines (1) how title IV assistance compares to that provided through the tax code, (2) the extent to which tax filers effectively use postsecondary tax preferences, and (3) what is known about the effectiveness of federal assistance.
Title IV student aid and tax preferences provide assistance to a wide range of students and families in different ways. While both help students meet current expenses, tax preferences also assist students and families with saving for and repaying postsecondary costs. While both serve students and families with a range of incomes, some forms of title IV aid--grant aid, in particular--provide assistance to those whose incomes are lower, on average, than is the case with tax preferences. While both require students and families to fill out forms, tax preferences require more responsibility on the part of students and families because they must identify applicable tax preferences, understand complex rules concerning their use, and correctly calculate and claim credits or deductions. While the tax preferences are a newer policy tool, the number of tax filers using them has grown quickly, surpassing the number of students aided under title IV in 2002. Some tax filers do not appear to make optimal education-related tax decisions. For example, among the limited number of tax returns available for our analysis, 27 percent of eligible tax filers did not claim either the tuition deduction or a tax credit. In so doing, these tax filers failed to reduce their tax liability by $169, on average, and 10 percent of these filers could have reduced their tax liability by over $500. One explanation for these taxpayers' choices may be the complexity of postsecondary tax provisions, which experts have commonly identified as difficult for tax filers to use. Little is known about the effectiveness of title IV aid or tax preferences in promoting, for example, postsecondary attendance or choice, in part because of research data and methodological challenges. As a result, policymakers do not have information that would allow them to make the most efficient use of limited federal resources to help students and families.

"I was so pleased with my cards!! The designer took time to make sure that a detail of my card that was very important to me was still in the design after my review of the gone to print image did not display this detail. Everyone I worked with was fabulous!"
"I was always asked if I had any Business Cards on me, and unfortunately, I didn't until now. I went to Tinyprints.com and I had a selection of Business Cards to choose. I chose this card. It was simple, yet business type of a card. The cards had arrived early, after they were done, and they were packaged very well."
"The card was great I use my own photos an the quality was outstanding, I also like the Idea that I could order a small amount. an can reorder when I need more. It is worth the investment."
"I really love the card. I like how easy it was to personalize with the fonts, sizes and spacing. Being able to put a logo on the back was great too. Only thing I wish they had had more front border color options."
"Great looking, super simple design. Love the boldness and the gorgeous persimmon color. Wish there were options of having the corners curved and/or glossy paper."

Theodore Wores (American, 1859-1939)
Sand Dunes and Wild Flowers, n.d.
Oil on canvas 16 in. x 20 in. (40.64 cm x 50.8 cm)
Crocker Art Museum, gift of Drs. Ben and A. Jess Shenson1970.19
Theodore Wores was one of San Francisco's first native artists, studying as a teenager under Virgil Williams at San Francisco's California School of Design. In 1875, he enrolled at the Royal Academy in Munich. During his European study, Wores made the acquaintance of James McNeill Whistler, whose admiration of Japanese aesthetics inspired him. Wores became, in 1885, one of the first American artists to visit Japan, where he stayed for two years, followed Japanese customs, learned the language, and wrote numerous articles about the country. He returned for a second visit in 1892 and again stayed two years. While there he sketched and painted on small wood panels, often directly from nature. This painting is a faithful depiction of the village of Horikiri, which was famous for its iris gardens. In Japan, Wores's dark, Munich-inspired palette lightened, and he began to use Impressionist color and brushwork. When he returned to California, he continued to work primarily in this style, producing landscape views of the San Francisco Bay Area and the Monterey region. Over the course of his career, he painted the state's flowers, trees, coast, and natural landmarks. He most successfully realized California's native wildflowers in combination with rocky shores, panoramic sea views, and hills, as well as with the adobe architecture of Monterey. Wores also painted the gardens and architecture of the Alhambra in Granada, Spain. There, "his predilection for brilliant effects of sunlight, exotic scenes and people, [and] mellowed architecture, brought forth scores of canvases."1

Last month, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) announced it was cutting VisitBritain's funding by 18% over the next three years.
The tourism agency claims the decision will prevent it running any advertising in the years up to London 2012. This has caused widespread outrage in the tourism industry, as many believe that the estimated £2.1bn net economic benefit of staging the Games will be impossible to achieve if the agency cannot market the country abroad.
VisitBritain has a budget of £49.6m, which is split between its international operations (£35.2m) and its domestic arm, Enjoy England (£14.4m). VisitWales, VisitScotland and the Northern Ireland Tourist Board are funded separately and their budgets will not suffer.
Before the DCMS' announcement, VisitBritain had requested an extra £20m in government funding in the years leading up to the Games, which would have been matched by the private sector. 'This would have been spent on a global TV campaign on the same scale as the activity run after 11 September 2001,' says VisitBritain's strategy and communications director, Sandie Dawe.
An extra £20m from the government, matched by the tourism sector, funded the tourist board's last TV campaign. Using the strapline 'Only in Britain. Only in 2002', it aimed to market the country after the foot-and-mouth crisis and terrorist attacks in the US. The campaign, which included TV ads, targeted seven countries and generated £500m in expenditure and 1m visitors.
As a consequence of the budget cut, VisitBritain says it will be able to invest only in PR and digital marketing leading up to the Olympics, which is unlikely to have the same impact.
VisitBritain has already relaunched its individual country websites with the aim of attracting more international visitors to Britain in the run-up to the Games. 'Twenty million people visit our websites annually, but there is a limit to how often we can reinvent ourselves online,' says Dawe, who is responsible for VisitBritain's Olympics strategy.
The cutbacks will have come as no surprise to the tourism board. In May, it was forced to consolidate its international and domestic arms, resulting in 20 redundancies, as part of a £4m cost-cutting process in anticipation of the funding review. It will have to make further cuts in areas such as research to mitigate the reduction of its budget to £40.6m by 2010/11.
'The allocation to overseas marketing hasn't risen since 1997,' says Dawe. 'This means we have not been getting our share of voice in key markets such as the US.'
In comparison, the DCMS has awarded an extra £50m to the Arts Council over the next three years. 'The government is increasing funding for our cultural institutions,' says VisitBritain chairman Christopher Rodrigues. 'But free entry to museums and galleries will not persuade tourists to come to London instead of Paris, New York or Hong Kong.'
VisitBritain claims that every £1 it invests generates £30 for the tourism industry. This contributes £85bn a year to the UK's economy.
The lack of funds could also lead to the UK losing business to rival destinations. 'We are underperforming against our international rivals,' says Richard Cope, senior travel analyst at Mintel. 'We need a big global brand campaign to compete for the Chinese, Russian and Indian markets.'
Cope warns that Britain's London-centric tourism market is forcing Britons to holiday abroad, exacerbating the need for overseas visitors. 'Hotels are becoming reliant on business travellers, stag, hen and wedding parties and stopover trade,' he says. 'We need new itineraries and iconic rebranding of our regions.'
Other industry experts agree that the UK's market positioning is causing problems for the tourism sector. 'Britain has struggled with its brand identity for years,' says one industry insider. 'We desperately need to take advantage of celebrations such as Liverpool as Europe's 2008 Capital of Culture, and to market them accordingly.'
'The Games are a unique marketing opportunity to reposition Britain as a must-see destination,' adds Guy Parsons, chief operating officer at Travelodge. 'However, it is conditional on putting financial resources behind the country's global marketing strategy.'
In May, VisitBritain appointed Team Saatchi to review the UK's brand identity in a bid to raise the country's profile (Marketing, 23 May). The new motif and strapline will be unveiled at the end of the year, but with no funds available for advertising, they may prove worthless.
The DCMS claims further funding is available through Regional Development Agencies and the Greater London Authority. The government department has also asked VisitBritain to lead a strategic review of how best to maximise its funding to market the country, which will be completed by next spring. But this may be too little too late.
VisitBritain estimates that 50%-70% of the Games' economic benefit will be accrued through tourism, with more than two-thirds of this to be delivered in the four years after the event. But these figures are likely to plummet if Britain fails to promote itself adequately in a competitive tourism market.

To paraphrase Bruce Schneier, banks do not depend solely on vaults to keep their assets safe; they also employ intrusion detection and response mechanisms
Arguably one of the best network intrusion detection systems (IDS) is the free and open source Snort toolkit. It has a large and active community, and is backed by the commercial company SourceFire, making Snort a strong contender in the intrusion detection systems market. The package itself is free. All that's required is some hardware to run it on and the time to install, configure and maintain it. Snort runs on any modern operating system (including Windows and Linux), but some consider it to be complicated to operate. The goal of this guide is to take some of the mystery out of Snort.
Why Snort makes IDS worth the time and effort
How to identify and monitor network ports
How to handle network design with switches and segments
Where to place IDS network sensors

Rated 4.6 out of 5 by 7 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Westec SWEET UNIT! I installed this on a 1990 Chris Craft 177 (19ft) bow rider I loved the fact that I did not have to have any thing in the bow that passengers could get hurt on or make any holes not to mention the eye sore they are on a open bow boat! I have the 55lb thrust version it worked flawlessly in forward and reverse even in choppy water it still preformed well! it is simple enough my 13 year old use to use it and get me where I wanted to be Simple hand tools are really only needed a socket swivel joint does make it a little easier, if you take your time and run the wiring right you will have a nice clean installation July 28, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by amarkley amazing i spent the day at Stockton Lake, Stockton, Mo. The wind kept me from fishing brushpiles so I decided to try my new engine mount Minn Kota trolling motor. I am very pleased with the operation of this system. It is very easy to control the boat and maintain trolling speeds in decimals. Love this motor. May 10, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by JWHRanger Great gas saver I have an older boat, and the motor does not always cooperate. I have run into the dock when the boat dies trying to get into reverse. I have taken my boat to the shop several times and nothing really helps. I also boat on a river where there are always logs next to shore and something to ding the prop on. Now I can just use the trolling motor from the captains chair to get away from the dock and to get back to the dock. Its great and takes away alot of the frustration that comes with aligning the boat on the trailer properly. We also troll alot, either fishing or just enjoying the water. Now I save a ton of gas and wear and tear on my motor by just running my trolling motor. Great product, easy install. April 28, 2011
Rated 3 out of 5 by nr EM 160 Installed on 1998 Sea Ray 190 bowrider. Removed lower unit to mount as close to engine as possible as per instructions. Would make a template and drill from the bottom of the cavitation plate but had to service seals anyways. Mounting hardware slightly interferes with trim tab. Ran today on slight breeze and no chop. Max speed was 3.5 mph. As mentioned in other reviews, reverse is worthless. Cannot get into shallows as outdrive must be all the way down to operate. Does have a significant impact on getting on plane and causes cavitation in sharp turns. All in all, it has delivered trolling speed to my boat but at the cost of performance of normal operation. Yes I can still get on plane but am limited to the trim being all the way up. I prefer it a bit down with nose up in chop and this is not going to be possible. My biggest apprehension (owned the unit for 3 weeks before installing) with installing was the relative long path to removal and getting back to normal on the anti-cavitationplate if I didn't like it. Hoping that pulling the tube is still an option. If not, I might as well just by a fishing boat. September 16, 2007

Will it mount on 9.9 yamaha
Details:I have a 16' G3 aluminum boat with a 9.9 yamaha outboad, will this mount on an engine this small and work properly?
1 year, 8 months ago
A:The EM motor mounts permanently on the cavitation plate of our outboard or I/O lower unit, keeping the deck and transom of the boat clear.
Per Minn Kota web site: http://www.minnkotamotors.com/products/trolling_motors/engine_mount/freshwater.aspx
Engine Mount Guide
Use this chart as a guide for the minimum clearance required from the spine of your outboard to the end of your cavitation plate (see diagram), as well as from the cavitation plate to the waterline (13" minimum).

what motor would be best for a 20 ft pontoon
1 year, 9 months ago
- wyoming(read all my Q&A)
A:Per Minn Kota web site:
Can I use the EM (Engine Mount) on a pontoon?
No, the boat would have to go up on plane in order for the EM to be out of the water while the main motor is being used. Since pontoons don't go up on plane, the EM wouldn't come out of the water and would cause too much drag.
A:i would reckomend the 36 volt single motor unit, lots of torque and doesnt interfere with high speed
A:I have a 22' aluminum deck boat, my 80lb. thrust Minn Koda handles it well even on windy days. I would get the biggest you can aford.

A:I installed this unit on my 20 foot open bow with a mercruiser. i used the 36 volt unit. this unit litterally does not mount to a mercruiser. however i wrote minkota with an answer. what you have to do is remove the electric motor from the bracket, take off your trim cylinders. then slide the bracket down the cavitation plate till the bracket hits your trim cylinder bolt, mark the bolt position on your bracket, measure 3/4 inch in and drill a 5/8 hole on both sides of bracket. remove teh cylinder pin and replace it with a 5/8 bolt and locking nut 10 inchs long. insert bolt through the bracket and trim tab bolt hole, now mark your 3/8 bolt holes, remove bracket and drill. mount the motor back onto bracket and mount through the bolt hole and add the 6 3/8 bolt holes, tighten 5/8 bolt only slightly and mount up. you do have to come up and drill a hole through the transom or hull to get cable through. i can tell you it is well worth it.

A:You will want to choose one with at least 80 to 101 pounds of thrust to be able to push your size and weight of boat.

What all is on the controller?
Details:Does the controller have a battery meter? Or is it just basically a dial for Fwd/Reverse?
2 years, 9 months ago
A:dial for forward and reverse. meters are beter available from a forklift dealer. 24 and 36 volt charge indicators have been used on forklifts for years and are very reliable. often resembling fuel gauges for your battery
A:its just a dial for forward and reverse
as for the battery I used mine two days in a row (14 hours total) and it was still working pretty good the battery voltage when I was done was 10.9

A:MK80/EM (item number 38-528-522-00) will work for 17.6' Sport boat with 115 HP Mercury Outboard Engine

Details:engine mount 2 prop versus a single prop

A:i wish they stil made the 202 i would buy one in a minute. the 101 should be plenty to push your pontoon boat. especially good for approaching docks and loading your boat seeing the corded remote allows you to look over the side and throttle up the trooling motor.
A:This will not work on a pontoon.
The boat would have to go up on plane in order for the EM to be out of the water while the main motor is being used. Since pontoons don't go up on plane, the EM wouldn't come out of the water and would cause too much drag.

text: Lauren Conrad is a TV star from the MTV shows "Laguna Beach" and "The Hills." While you can easily say her roles lack, well, substance, you cannot say the same for Conrad's ride. It is full of it, in a good way. She rides around Los Angeles in the incredible Audi R8 supercar. The midmounted monster — which goes zero to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds, delivers 317 lb-ft of torque and has a top speed of 187 mph — is also favored by macho types such as English soccer ace Robbie Fowler and actor David Hasselhoff. So, while seeing a tiny, blond, SoCal reality TV star tooling around in this powerhouse is a bit disconcerting, it's also, dare we say it, totally awesome! It sure beats Paris Hilton's cringe-inducing pink Bentley.

Roswell CoolSculpting reviews
80% of Roswell reviewers said CoolSculpting was worth it
I'm so excited about the results of my coolsculpting treatments! I had the larger application on my lower stomach and I had my love handles done twice last year. I think I'm going to get my stomach done again. I see a difference but I want more. My esthitician told me that she thought I would need more than one treatment anyway. Not too overweight but I've been trying to lose weight and I have... more
Hi All So a little bit about me, I am a 29 year old female. I have struggled with my weight for my entire life, I am 5'4 I have always been over weight coming in at around 155-170. It got really bad about 4 years ago when I hit my all time high at 237lbs. I decided enough was enough and with the support of my husband I did something about it. I did the P90x workout, in 90 days I lost... more
"Save Your Money - Atlanta, GA"
While I feel the procedure was done correctly, it just did not work for me. There was MINIMAL change and for $1500 I expected more. The technician told me that my tummy would be flat (I was trim to begin with). I think she lost my original photos because we could only compare month 4 photos to month 3 photos. I saved money for a year to have this doen and you can imagine my disapointment. Now... more
"Had Cool Sculpting 3/30/12 - Atlanta, GA"

The below is my experience (I had my partner with me, for support, who will also be getting... more
"Dealing with my Fat for the First..."
I had the procedure done today and like many I too was concerned about anything painful ( I am a sucker when it comes to pain). The cold pad definitely alerted me prior to the suction device and boy did it grab a chunk of my belly! It was a little painful at first until the freezing and numbness kicked in and then it was downhill from there while counting down the time. I will admit it... more
"AWESOME Experience - Atlanta, GA"
I had Coolsculpting done to my belly (ABS area) 2 days ago. I am a mid sized male, weight 174 lbs, work out 3 times weekly or more, but was unable to get rid of that belly fat thanks to family genetics. I've had liposuction to my neck, but just wasnt ready to do it to the ol belly. I scheduled an appt with the doctor and went the next day. I arrived to the facility and they interviewed... more
"1 Hour is Worth It! - Atlanta, GA"
I've had problems with my belly area for as long as I can remember. My pants always accentuated the lovely "muffin top" I had. I did Cool Sculpting on my lower stomach and was very pleased. There was hardly any pain involved and I was numb for the first 2 weeks after being treated. That didn't stop me from my busy schedule, which was very important. Overall, I'm very... more

Human emotion.
That is what will stay with you as you recall the Baseball Hall of Fame induction ceremonies Sunday. Yes, the greatness of Dennis Eckersley and Paul Molitor was forever validated by their inductions into the Hall. But you will remember them on this day, not only as transcendent baseball players, but as men, as human beings.
You could not fail to be moved, for instance, by Eckersley's comments about his battle with alcoholism. You could not fail to be moved, either, about his love for the game -- "baseball lives in my soul ... in every fiber of my being."
And in fact, Molitor, listening to Eckersley's induction speech, was himself welling up with tears.
Eckersley's was the more emotional speech of the two, but then he is the more openly emotional of the two. He would be the one who would be much more likely to discuss his problems with the entire world watching. This is neither better nor worse, but simply a difference between two human beings.
Molitor revealed more of himself when, after the ceremonies, he was asked about his reaction to Eckersley's remarks.
Molitor said that he was deeply moved, in part because he knew of Eckersley's problems. And also, Eckersley's remarks reminded him of his own issues, of going through his own divorce, of a problem with drug abuse that he had early in his own career.
And as far as being revealing, Molitor, in addressing comments to members of his family in his own speech had mentioned "Joshua" and said: "I know that better days are ahead for us."
For many people, this was not a recognizable name in Molitor's family, so he was later asked about Joshua.
"I had a little son, Josh, when I was up in Toronto," Molitor said. "Haven't really seen him very much. Working on a way to improve that relationship."
It ought to be noted in this context, that both Eckersley and Molitor, in their speeches, thanked their ex-wives. That there were ex-wives who needed thanking was probably not so much a commentary on baseball marriage as it was a commentary on contemporary marriage in general.
Molitor acknowledged that he had practiced the personally difficult passages of his speech so many times that he had been able to work through his emotions in that way. Eckersley, who again, showed more visible emotion during his speech, was asked if he had practiced the portions of his speech dealing with his recovery from alcoholism. He responded: "Yeah, I practiced. And I cried every time."
There were other moments, too, that were full of genuine emotion. The special tribute to Harmon Killebrew, widely known not just as a slugger, but as a fundamentally decent human being, was touching. And the tribute to all the members of baseball's family who had passed away in the last year, leading off with the great Warren Spahn, was poignant.
You could pick your own moments, and come up with a score of them. But a special commendation ought to go out to Hall of Fame right-hander Ferguson Jenkins for his rendition of the Canadian National Anthem.
Jenkins is the Hall's only Canadian. He volunteered for this duty. They didn't have to draft him. He is clearly not a professional singer. And here he had to follow Daniel Rodriguez, "America's Beloved Tenor," singing "The Star-Spangled Banner." This was the pure rendition of our anthem, with a world-class talent carrying it.
But Jenkins sang his nation's anthem in a voice that was strong and on-key and carried considerable feeling. You know how people will say that one thing or another makes them proud to be an American? On this day, Jenkins singing "O Canada," made you proud to be a North American.
In total, this Sunday, this day of Hall of Fame inductions at the Clark Sports Center was a day in which baseball greatness was fully recognized. But it was also a day when the hearts of the people inside that greatness could be seen, too.

The implementation of 400 home garden to the benefit of poor families
Al-Najd Developmental Forum has completed the implementation of 400 home garden to the benefit of 400 poor families in Gaza Strip, through partnership with the Agricultural Relief, and financing from the Dutch representative office in Ramallah, West Bank.
The general director of the forum, Khaled Abu Sharkh said that the project , that took two months to be completed has served 400 families from the various five governorates of Gaza, noting that each family has got a home garden area of around 300 square meters, with all its basic needs of threes, agricultural material, irrigation systems, chicken, poultry feed, and generators.
He pointed that the project was very successful and beyond expectations as it increased the ability of the beneficiaries to benefit from their sales of crops, stressing that the project has provided more than 4000 days of work for about 200 workers and technicians.
Abu Sharkh also expressed hopes that donors would continue to support their relations to develop these projects and ensure the improvement of life conditions of the poor categories of families in rural, and remote areas.
He reviewed the most important positive results of such projects, mainly the exploitation of land and empty spaces between the houses, and increasing the harvest of healthy and organic agricultural products.
Abu Sharkh added that " the project has contributed in beautifying the targeted areas, and improving the environment's quality " noting that more important was the rehabilitation of these families and training them to work in agriculture and depend on themselves.
For her part , the chairwoman of Al-Najd Forum Rifqqa Al-Hammlawi said that " the project has targeted the most vulnerable and poor families, especially those women and widows living in border areas".
She stressed the importance of following up these projects and develop them according to the potential of these citizens from poor families.
Al-Hammlawi also explained that " all these families are depending now on themselves after they obtained the necessary technical training , pointing that, unlike a lot of other projects, it won the attention of all the beneficiaries.

A Belleville man was charged in connection with robbing a Lebanon bank on Friday.
Jeffrey M. Jones, 25, was charged by the St. Clair County State's Attorney with one count of robbery in connection with a hold up at the Farmers and Merchants Bank at 108 W. St. Louis St.
Sgt. David Tutterow credited the capture of the suspect to help from the public.
"Jones was identified by several individuals who called our department after seeing media reports on the incident," Tutterow said. "The Lebanon Police would like to thank the members of the media for their assistance, as well as the citizens who made the calls."
Police said the suspect walked into the bank at about 2:20 p.m. and demanded money. Although he did not display a weapon, he handed the teller a note in which he demanded money.
Lebanon had at least two bank robberies last year.
Carla R. Walker, 43, who was known as the "flip-flop bandit" because she fled in bright green flip-flops, admitted to using a pellet gun to rob the First Federal Savings Bank of Lebanon in March 2012. She was sentenced to 51 months in prison.
A suspect wearing a clown mask displayed a shotgun and robbed the First Federal Savings Bank of Mascoutah's Lebanon branch in September.
Jones was taken into custody at a residence in Belleville, without incident, and is being held in the St. Clair County Jail on $75,000 bail.

Houston >Food & Dining > Dolce Vita Pizzeria & Enoteca
500 Westheimer Rd, Houston, TX | Directions 7700629.744736 -95.387372
Mon. CLOSED;Tue. - Fri. 5pm - 10:30pm;Sat. - Sun. 12am - 10:30pm
Neighborhoods: Central, Neartown/ Montrose
Delicious pizza that's thin, so you can eat even more. Definitely get the arugula pear pizza.
Such great thin crust pizza, I can eat a whole one myself – In the spirit of Valentine´s day and amore, I want to say a few words about one of my favorite restaurants in town, Dolce Vita pizzeria. Even though I live in Sugar Land, I will drive to satisfy my regular cravings for Dolce Vita´s unbelievably good thin crust calabrese pizza, a pizza so good that I usually get greedy and horde a whole pizza by myself. But it´s not just the pizza, it´s the spicy patatas bravas (potato in spicy tomato sauce), the beets with horseradish and waltnuts, the pizza bread piping hot from the oven that enhances the texture of the piping hot eggplant parmesan, everything accompanied, of course, by a tasty and refreshing glass of house made sangria. I love the Bostonian-New England feel of the narrow wooden steps leading upstairs to a dining area that seems as if it was transplated from the east coast. I love that diners are happy and boisterous and the general gathering is one of joyous eating pleasure. I love meeting friends here for a one-on-one meal, and recently took a friend of mine who came in town from Frankfurt, Germany, a vegetarian who, after a bite of the margerita pizza topped with fresh arugula, rolled her eyes in food ecstasy after the first bite, then proceeded to clear the entire plate only to sigh in self disgust at the end ´´ugh, i feel like such a pig!¨ No worries my dear, we can visit Dolce Vita and be piglets together, LOL
Yes, Dolce Vita, you have my love. Just keep doing what you do and crank out those tasty pizzas as I am ever yours, a true die-hard fan.!
Delicious napoletana pizza in town. Love their fresh mozzarela di buffala and the tartufo for dessert. But I miss a good warming service.
very good food but not sanitary – I love their pastas, salads and the pizza with truffle oil. The food is exceptional but on my last visit I was not happy with the large bug in the parmasan. It was still alive and in the center of the bottle so I know it did not just fly in through the holes. It was was living there! I noticed it after I was done eating. After I told the waitress she took it to the manager and he only said that since their condiments are left outside these things happen. Well If this is a common occurence, then I will not eat where bugs are breeding and pooping in. I can't believe they did not even adjust our bill or say sorry. That is bad customer service.
Great food - service definitely depends on your server. – The Pizza to me is the most authentic and best in town. I even don't mind the increased prices as I an not comparing this to a regular pizza restaurant.
I have eaten here about 10 times since they've opened. The service for me has ben generally efficient, if not overly friendly. I have to agree with other reviews that the hostesses are complete airheads. They have "forgotten" my sister and her friend, They waited over an hour for a 20 minute wait, because the hostess "forgot" they were there and seated everyone else! When they asked about their late table, they were told it was too late too eat as the kitchen was closed! Come on.
On the other hand, I have been there for small and large parties and the wait service was flawless.
Just be prepared for an adventure. :)
Best Italian food in Houston! – When I moved to Houston I was terrified by the Italian food that was offered in the restaurants. I have been to Italy many times and ate Italian food in other European coutries and was always satisfied with the taste.
Until I came to Dolce Vita there was nothing close to real Italian food - macaroni swimming in a sauce, pizza with a horrible crust...Dissapointment after dissapointment.
Finally I came here and finally ate a great pizza on a thin tasty crunch with wonderful toppings. Haven't found better pizza yet in Houston.
I haven't tried pasta yet as their pizza is so good, so no opinion so far.
Panna Cotta is also delicious and this dessert is not good everywhere...Thumbs up! I can also recommend cannoli.
Things I don't like are: vallet parking (just don't like the idea of vallet parking) and the fact that you can't book a table for fever people than six and I prefer to have a table booked and not have to wait by a bar. But their pizza is worth waiting...
Great menu selctions, food and atmosphere – I agree with DC Allen that this place offers an innovative menu selection for Houston. I wish other restaurants would venture out and get a little more creative and/or authentic with their offerings. The thin crust pizzas with interesting toppings are an exception to the usual thick crust versions with extra cheese. The salads are fresh and the greens (e.g., escarole) taste bitter as they should. The pasta is actually cooked al dente, also hard to find in Houston, and the sauce tastes fresh. I love the selection of vegetable and seafood small plates although I haven't gotten around to trying too many of them. The patio is enjoyable if it isn't too hot and the bar area is cozy. The manager approached our table once or twice and asked about everything which we also appreciated.
Great food, sangria and atmosphere – Same quality as Da Marco with more affordable price and friendly atmosphere.
Awesome Sangria!
DO NOT VALET! – I love this restaurant. We used to here at least twice a month, whether for the delicious thin crust pizza or the simple and delicious pastas. Occasionally we'd even share the deliciously simple hazelnut tartufa. Unfortunately, on our last visit, the valet managed to put an 18 inch scratch down both doors or my car that I didn't see until the following morning. These were not small scratches so they had to have known but (obviously) denied everything (quite aggresively!) when I called and visited the next day. I haven't been back but was thinking about it until my co-worker emailed this morning to inform me that the same thing had happened to them Saturday night. It might be harsh to blame the restaurant but they employ these people so are ultimately responsible for their actions.
Beware: Bribery Works For Hostesses!! – We walked in to Dolce Vita this past Saturday night hoping to have a nice meal before going out. When we arrived around 7, we were told that our wait would be 30-45 minutes. So we proceeded to wait near the hostesses and saw more and more people entering and the quoted wait time going up to about 1 1/2 hours. Well after about 30 minutes we noticed a party of four approach the hostess and ask to be placed on the list. After another 15 minutes, one guy that was part of the party of four, walked over with his drink and started talking to the hostesses. The guy asked, "how much would it cost to be the next table seated?" The hostess responded, "one hundred bucks." He responded, "how about 15?" The hostess agreed. She then turned to other hostesses and told them that they could split the money. The other hostesses giggled and appeared to be okay with taking THE BRIBE. The guy then went back to his party of four and bragged about bribing the hostesses. Within five minutes, the party of four happily walked to their table upstairs.
Good Neopolitan Pizzas – I've visited Dolce Vita twice now, once with my husband and parents and again with a group of 25 women. Each time the service and food were superb. If you've been to DaMarco's you won't be disappointed with this sister restaurant. I've had the cheese and meat board, the brussel sprouts, and a couple of different salads that were all of the highest quality. The pizzas feature interesting flavors by Houston standards, and each I have sampled were wonderful with crispy (not soggy) crusts. Dinner companions have thoroughly enjoined the nightly specials as well.
Bottom line: if you are looking for American style pizza go to Romano's on West Gray, but DV has the best thin crust Neopolitan style pizzas in Houston.
By the way to the previous reviewer, it is not illegal to record a phone conversation so long as one party consents, in your situation, that was the manager.
Good food Good service – The manager was very friendly suggesting cavas and cool drinks on a hot day. Very good customer service. The pizza was good... it was the prosciutto, basil, almonds and tomatoes pizza. Crust is thin and crispy and generous servings of prosciutto. Ordered a olive oil, garlic and calamari spaghetti (made to order) ... good try but a bit watery....
I'd still go back for the pizza and try the other pastas...
That campari and cava on a hot day is good and so was the bloodorange vodka drink was even better.
