It promises to be another week of busy action for Chelsea's internationals, with players at all levels on duty for their countries either in Europe or Africa.
Petr Cech will be hoping for two clean sheets at home when his Czech Republic side host Malta on Friday and Bulgaria on Tuesday. The first game takes place in Cech's home town of Plzen, the second in Prague.
Branislav Ivanovic will be expecting a tough time when Belgium visit Serbia in Belgrade on Friday, the defender, who captains his country, could well be marking one Eden Hazard. The Belgian squad also contains the on-loan Kevin De Bruyne and Thibaut Courtois, and they entertain Scotland in Brussels next Tuesday after the Serbian test. Serbia travel to Macedonia.
The English contingent of Gary Cahill, Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard and Ryan Bertrand, the latter being added to the squad on Monday, have two qualifiers, at home to San Marino on Friday, and away to Poland on Tuesday. If selected for both games, Cole will reach the 100-cap mark, while Lampard, if fit, could captain the side on Friday with Steven Gerrard suspended.
In Africa, there is an important Cup of Nations qualifier for John Mikel Obi and Victor Moses of Nigeria. They meet Liberia in Calabar on Saturday, needing a win after drawing the first leg away from home last month, 2-2.
World champions Spain do not need to qualify for Brazil 2014, and so have two friendlies to occupy them. Fernando Torres is the only Chelsea man involved as they travel to Belarus on Friday and host France in Madrid on Tuesday.
As well as the Spanish, the hosts also qualify automatically, and Brazil's recent roadshow continues with games against Iraq in Sweden on Thursday and Japan in Poland on Tuesday. David Luiz, Ramires and Oscar are all in contention.
Conor Clifford, has been called into the senior Republic of Ireland squad for qualifiers against Germany and the Faroe Islands. Ireland have been hit by four withdrawals due to injury.
At Under-21 level, Oriol Romeu will represent Spain in their European Championship play-offs against Denmark. Games in Burgos and Aalborg will decide which country makes next summer's Finals in Israel.
Josh McEachran, currently with Middlesbrough in the Championship, is in the England Under-21 group that meets Serbia in Norwich on Friday before Tuesday's return leg.
For Thorgan Hazard and Lamisha Musonda's Belgium, there are friendlies away in Greece and Israel on Friday and Sunday.
In the Under-19s bracket, Dutchman Nathan Ake is in Euro qualifying action in Poland, facing Malta, San Marino and the Poles in a mini group. The winners progress to the next round of qualifying.
Alex Davey and Islam Feruz are in the Scottish squad who will be on home soil for their tournament, facing Armenia, Romania and Switzerland between today and Sunday.
For Belgium, Tika Musonda faces Belarus, Albania and Italy, while Wales could feature Chike Kandi when they face Sweden, Slovenia and Russia.
Finally at Under-17, there are four Chelsea youngsters in the England squad that meets Estonia, Wales and Northern Ireland for European Championship qualifying. They are first-year scholars Alex Kiwomya and Ruben Loftus-Cheek and schoolboys Charlie Colkett and Ola Aina.

Vapor — which uses the universal language of sports to minister to third-world communities, building self-sustaining centers for humanitarian aid and sharing the word of God — began with a missionary visit, a laptop and a car.
Of course, the missionary visit came first.
"It started when a kid who just graduated college went to do missionary work in Kenya," said Janella Griggs, manager of communications at Vapor Sports Ministries. That kid was Vapor president and founder Micah McElveen.
McElveen returned home from Kenya in 2004 with "a vision for what God needed him to do," Griggs said. He began the organization that would become Vapor Sports Ministries and, in the months that followed, lived out of his car while he drove from church to church, looking for sponsors.
After his organization was granted nonprofit status, Micah traveled back to Kenya to begin work on the first Vapor center. In 2006, Micah was on the road again seeking sponsorship and living out of his car — now joined by his new wife, Audrey.
In 2007, with nothing but the car and a laptop, the couple met David Pursell, owner of Pursell Farms in Sylacauga, who gave them a chance.
"He offered Micah and his wife a small office at the farm," Griggs said.
Since its founding in 2005, the organization has opened five Vapor centers in some of the world's most impoverished areas — the cities of Kawangware and Gichagi in Kenya, Togoville in Ghana, and Diliare and, most recently, Ouanaminthe, both in Haiti. The centers are run by local citizens and, once established, are paired with local faith groups to work on projects that will help the centers become financially stable and self sustaining.
The centers, Griggs said, are only one of the ways Vapor serves these communities. Local residents receive humanitarian aid, including food stipends and education on nutrition and health, and spiritual leadership and encouragement through disciple-making — which has been the heart of the mission since the beginning, according to Griggs.
While Micah was in Kenya, he noticed the children making soccer balls out of trash and string. Soccer "seemed to be the universal language people were accustomed to to connect them with the true passion of Christ," Griggs explained.
All five Vapor centers feature their own self-contained sports leagues where participants study the Bible at all practices and games and "just live life together," she said.
Not a typical ministry, Vapor works to raise awareness of the needs of the less fortunate, but doesn't rely on traditional fundraising, she said. A lot of Vapor's support comes from its thrift stores in Alabama, Georgia and California, and by word of mouth.
"The Lord has been so grateful to find people that are into the cause. Lots of churches give their offerings to us," she said.
Even organizations like the Huntsville Inner City Learning Center, which is known for helping those less fortunate, donated all the earnings they made from hosting a 5K in August to Vapor.
"Actual needy kids giving things to other needy kids in Africa — It is really cool and so precious," said Griggs.
Church groups, staff members and outside volunteers make several trips a year to the centers to encourage indigenous spiritual leadership and keep the focus on disciple-making. Griggs said volunteers receive nothing but warm welcomes, happiness and excitement upon arrival.
"They were in Haiti a couple of weeks ago and (once the center was built) people in the community were like, 'This is for us? We can play here?'" she said.
The future of each center ultimately lies in the hands of the people for whom it was built, but regardless, the people of Vapor Sports Ministries have faith that God is behind them.
"We've seen confirmation in the Lord that we're in the right place and he's been faithful to us," Griggs said. "We just want to make our lives count. That's what we're all about."

The check-in staff are great, the rooms are good and they have a free business center! I was a little worried after reading some negative reviews, but I have to say Crowne Plaza Austin is a very good value hotel.
I stayed here for one night and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The room was well kept. The beds were extremely comfortable. And it was all for a very reasonable price. I personally want to express my gratitude to Gary, who assisted us during our check-in and even issued us two free drinks from the bar. He was very polite and helpful.

The bar/lounge on-site was also very nice. Lots of tasty appetizers and dishes to choose from, with all appetizers 50% off during happy hour! What a deal! We had the Santa Fe chicken egg rolls, a southwestern spin on a Asian food favorite; phenomenal, especially for hotel food.
This hotel exceeded our expectations. One reason we stayed there is they accept pets, which worked out well for us. The staff took care of minor problems immediately. Everyone was friendly and attentive. The restaurant and bar were great. The hotel was beautifully decorated. The price we found on Expedia was really great. Highly recommend this hotel!
Great Hotel! – Attended a business meeting at this hotel and it was great! From the moment I arrived, after a day of traveling hell; I was greeted with a big smile from the bellman who kindly directed me to the front desk. In just a few minutes I was on my way to my room; which was clean and quiet. Just what I needed! Room service was hot and speedy delivery. Everyone I came in touch with could not have been nicer! I'm coming back to Austin in the summer for a wedding downtown and am definitely staying here!

Treatment during pregnancy
Hormonal and bacterial quantity changes during pregnancy put pregnant women at greater risk for gingivitis and periodontal disease. Therefore, it is very important that pregnant women continue to get regular dental cleanings during pregnancy. Pregnant women have generally been counseled to avoid elective dental treatment during pregnancy unless they are experiencing an emergency like pain or infection. In this case, the second trimester is the best time for treatment to keep the expectant mother as comfortable as possible. Local anesthetics, and other materials used during dental treatment don't increase risk to the fetus, but untreated oral disease has been shown to lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes. If X-rays are necessary, a protective apron will be placed over the woman's stomach and thyroid. If antibiotics are necessary, tetracycline should be avoided because it will cause staining in the baby's developing teeth.

Today, President Bush announced he is lifting a 1990 executive order banning offshore drilling off the coast of the United States. But experts agree that rescinding this ban will do nothing to bring down the high price of gasoline at the pump for American families or businesses.
"…access to the Pacific, Atlantic, and eastern Gulf regions would not have a significant impact on domestic crude oil and natural gas production or prices before 2030. Leasing would begin no sooner than 2012, and production would not be expected to start before 2017…Because oil prices are determined on the international market, however, any impact on average wellhead prices is expected to be insignificant."
- Energy Information Administration Report [2007]
"If we were to drill today, realistically speaking, we should not expect a barrel of oil coming out of this new resource for three years, maybe even five years, so let's not kid ourselves."
- Fadel Gheit, oil and gas analyst with Oppenheimer & Co. Equity Capital Markets Division [CNN, 7/14/08]
Speaker Pelosi and House Democrats have called on the President to draw down a small portion of oil in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to immediately expand available supplies, send a strong message to oil speculators, and help reduce the record prices that are helping push the economy toward recession.
A handful of Congressional Republicans also agree that releasing small amount of oil from the SPR would be a short-term step forward that would be felt by American consumers at the pump.
Rep. Zach Wamp (R-TN)
President Bush "could take 25 percent of the (reserve) and throw it on the market, and that would effectively stop (oil) speculation…Even though it's a short-term infusion, it would be such a shot in the arm to supply that prices would come down." [Chattanooga Times Free Press, 7/10/08]
Rep. Rodney Alexander (R-LA)
"I don't see anything wrong with it…If the reserves are for strategic purposes, it looks to me like $4-a-gallon gas is a strategic purpose." [Shreveport Times, 7/14/08]
Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-GA)
Tapping the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is an "acceptable short-term proposal." [Chattanooga Times Free Press, 7/10/08]

The Ascuaga family, which included founder John, Chief Executive Officer Michonne and Chief Operating Officer Stephen, joined several employees and long-time friends in the Casino Cabaret where a celebratory champagne toast highlighted the night. Plenty of mingling, and snacking on complimentary dessert, ensued following the toast, which allowed for some catching up with the Nugget's extended family.
"We are very fortunate we have a lot of friends," Michonne said after the cake cutting. "When you are in business this long, you kind of develop roots and so a lot of that is shown here to today."
Michonne said the history of the Nugget from its humble days as a coffee shop, and even as a single-tower hotel, have come a long way in the city of Sparks. She said the legacy that has been built over time is nowhere near complete, but the evolution that has occurred brings her great pride to be the head of the company.
"It's a great feeling and wonderful to have all of our employees here and we are looking forward to many good years to come," she said.
The Nugget has been in business in Sparks since 1955 and now comes complete with 1,600 rooms, eight award-winning restaurants, 110,000 square feet of meeting space, a year-round atrium pool and 1,200 slot machines.
Currently, the Nugget is preparing for a busy summer schedule that includes the 25th anniversary of the Best in the West Nugget Rib Cook-Off, the Star Spangled Sparks Fourth of July event and much more. Michonne said the summer will be an exciting time for the Nugget and one she is personally looking forward to.
"I think today is a glorious day, Spring is on its way, and when we get into summer, we have great summer events coming again. We are looking forward to good business coming through," she said. "We have always got plans to improve things and always adding things so stay tuned. We are really looking forward to summer coming."

Ferguson rues game of two halves
Manchester United's Sir Alex Ferguson believes that a poor start to the match against Tottenham proved costly on Saturday and led to their second defeat in six games.
He told ESPN: "It was quite a game. The first half we never started, didn't get into the game.
"From there we were just playing against the wind. The second half we played fantastic, just trying to get something from the game, and I think we were very unlucky.
"I think the attitude changed, that was the important thing. Wayne's (Rooney) ability does help but the attitude of the players was excellent everywhere on the pitch."
United had a host of penalty appeals turned down, with both their goalscorers going down under challenges in the area and handball shouts against both Sandro and William Gallas.
"There were quite a few," said Ferguson. "I think the one in the first half was a clear penalty kick, but maybe Nani made a meal of it and he didn't need to do that. He was clearly pulled back.
"The ones in the second half, I'm not so sure."

The 23-year-old Toro Rosso driver finished ninth in Yeongam, despite starting from 21st on the grid after a driveshaft issue in qualifying led to the team having to break the seal on his gearbox, incurring a five-place penalty.
The Australian was also hindered by a brake problem during the closing stages, and had to surrender a potential eighth place to team-mate Jean-Eric Vergne.
But another top-10 finish, his fourth in five races, is a sign of the progress being made by the Perth-born racer, and he is already looking forward to the next race in India in two weeks' time.
He said: "I hope we can carry this on. We have been doing it when maybe others have had a bit of bad luck, but it could have been even better.
"We lost points at the last corner in Monza and we lost eighth here and missed out on better points.
"We have got something going right now. I am racing really well and I am happy with my performances, so I am definitely confident for India, and it's a good circuit too."
Ricciardo was worried he might not even finish when his brake problem struck, giving him a scary moment on the high-speed approach to turn three as it sent him veering off into the large run-off area.
Having recovered he allowed Vergne through, but was concerned the McLaren of Lewis Hamilton would also catch him, only for the Briton to pick up a loose piece of synthetic turf and drop back from him.
But, despite missing out on a career-best result, he takes great heart from the fact he was able to keep pace with the Lotus of Romain Grosjean prior to his brake issue.
He said: "In pure performance this was our best weekend for a long time.
"[Jenson] Button and [Nico] Rosberg went off in the first few corners which made our positions look better but I was studying the times after the race and up until the problem I was getting quicker and quicker and I had just set my best lap of the race.
"Grosjean was seven or eight seconds in front and he faded a bit towards the end so if we did not have the problem we would have been close to Grosjean, and finishing close to a Lotus goes a long way for us in saying we have improved."

1819 Ocean Avenue, Santa Monica, CA | Directions 9040134.007934 -118.490777
Daily 24 Hours
Neighborhoods: West LA, Downtown
Super posh Santa Monica hotel and a great pool and bungalow area that's free full of ocean breezes. It's free from the Hollywood tourists and full of hunky, laid back life guards.
Pricey but oh so beautiful! The super white decor and sleek design will make you feel all warm inside. The outside area is the perfect place to meet out-of-town guests for a few appetizers and a cocktail.
Über chic and oozing with style. Go out back to their poolside patio for cocktails in a relaxed setting. Go for the rinsed sparkler.
Al Forno Fridays is on fire! – Tried the pizza poolside last Friday, first date of this new summer special. Going back next weekend with out of town guest for sure! Chef was cooking poolside, the vibe was fun (always is at Viceroy) and the pizzas were delicious - they had me at burrata mozzerella. Great selections of chilled beer too - chat with the Chef and he'll point you in the right direction!
Viceroy Hotel Santa Monica – I am sooo sad to say that best part of the Viceroy Hotel was the Friday recession Happy Hour...from 2 - 6. It turns out it was only in 2009. This was a 2009 Summer special. I recently read they had it back and called the hotel to confirm because I plan events all the time and was very sad to say they are not bringing it back. So CITYSEARCH needs to confirm the specials. They are no longer doing it this year. Instead they have another special called, Al Forno Fridays. Its not as exciting as the previous special, and no way near as inexpensive. It like any other pool bar :( citysearch, please check into what you print.
Worst Boutique hotel!! – I have stay at many different boutique hotels before, like The Keating at San Diego, Hotel Adagio at San Francisco. At Viceroy, I had the worst experience ever. The interior design in the hotel room is stylish but cheap looking. In our hotel room, we can hear people walking above us, and we can hear people knocking next door and it feels like people are knocking on our hotel room. The bath design is the worst, the shower area is half way cover with glass wall and water were all over the bathroom after shower. There is no plasma TV in the room and if you want to use the internet it?s 99 cents per minute. Overnight parking at Viceroy is $29 per night. For King Size ocean view room is $499 per night over the weekend. My boyfriend and I stayed at Viceroy over the Memorial weekend, you would imagine that ?ocean view? room is next to the ocean and you can get the whole view of the Santa Monica pier?..WRONG. The hotel is not literally ?next? to the beach, through our window we can barely see the ocean and there are other buildings are blocking the view. It doesn?t feel like that we have the ?ocean view? room. If you want to stay at a Boutique hotel, Viceroy is not the hotel that you want to spend $500 per night to stay at. For sure it will be my first time and last time staying at Viceroy.
Comfortable – The Viceroy is a great place to relax and just hang out! The pool area is calming and peaceful. u can order drinks pull side and just chill. The staff is amazing and very informative! The concierge service rocks and always helpful! I'm treated like a celebrity every time!! Everyone is amazing! The service is great! The hotel is a place to be seen! Its charming and ostentatious without attitude! The Valet is good! The guys really have it together! The rooms are very nice! The shower does leak due to the slight flaw of the glass door ask for two or three towels! loool! but its true! The rooms are comfortable and clean! Many Celebrities hang out or stay at this hotel! Its worth staying and checking it out! I go every summer and its in such a ideal location! live life and go VICEROY SANTA MONICA! Jag
Overpriced, pretentious, bad drinks, but pretty. – Once you get past the $16 parking, and equally expensive drinks, it's pretty inside. We went to get together with a friend who got engaged. But one of us couldn't get in. They waited in line outside for an hour and finally left. And the place was more empty than full. Clearly the line was for show.
My glasses of mediocre Syrah were $15 bucks a pop, which I had to go inside to get, because the server couldn't be bothered to come by to take our orders. My friend had a $30 mojito. God knows why he ordered it, but it was less than stellar. I suppose he felt he had to because the $15 or so mojitos were awful.
If you love pretension and a nice atmosphere, but not too showy, than perfect. Very nice place.... for half the price and if the service was better. All in all, I'll pass in the future. Enjoy. Hope they let you in.
P.S., We're not cheap and dress nice. So, it wasn't a place out of our league. I've been to places just as expensive that were worth it. We just found more wrong than right.
Tasty snacks, friendly service – The viceroy lobby bar is a good scene with attractive people but an easy LA vibe. Went on a Friday night and found the cocktail and wine list extensive and their bar appitizer menu will have a little something for everyone. The tuna tartare was fresh, tasty and presente beautifully. The prosciutto puffs were light and heavenly. Arrive early (before 8:30pm) to grab a seat, the bar gets quite crowded after that. Just go and enjoy.
Beautiful Decor! – I love this place! The decor is beautiful. I just want to go back and just sit and lounge and look at the interior and exterior design. Just beautiful. The drinks are somewhat expensive, but I thought the beauty of the place made it worth it.
WOW ! Mind-blowing experience, wonderful!! – My boyfriend and I tried this hotel for a romantic Valentine's Day weekend, and we were absolutely blown away by the beautiful decor, and fantastic attention to detal. Customer service rocks here. If you want to relax and get pampered, check it out!
Well designed with hints of pretension – Like most Kor properties, the interior & exterior design are stylishly impressive. It's very contemporary. Kudos to KWID. The location is great as well if you're staying the night. There's loads of eye candy here in the bar area. However, if you have a low tolerance for Audis,BMWs, $14 mixed drinks, Dior handbags, and fake tans, then the crowd might make you cringe some. Go early for the design & ambience, and leave when it gets too crowded (weekends).

For long-term use, essential oil mouthwash (EO-MW) appears to be a reliable alternative for chlorhexidine mouthwash (CHX-MW) with respect to parameters of gingival inflammation.
In this relatively well-conducted systematic review, the authors were unable to analyze the treatment effects as a function of different levels of plaque, calculus, bleeding and gingivitis so, in essence, the conclusions were generic.

Essential oils compared to chlorhexidine with respect to plaque and parameters of gingival inflammation: a systematic review
Van Leeuwen, M. P., Slot, D. E., Van der Weijden, G. A.. Journal of Periodontology. 2011;82(2):174-94
For patients with gingivitis, what is the effect of a standardized EO-MW compared to a CHX-MW with respect to the clinical parameters of gingival inflammation?
Two electronic databases were used to search for appropriate articles up to and including September 2010 written in English. Randomized or controlled clinical trials that evaluated the effects of EO-MW compared to CHX-MW were eligible for inclusion if they were, conducted in humans 16 years or older and in good general health. The authors compared the performance of EO-MW and CHX-MW in a meta-analysis utilizing weighted mean differences of the following clinical parameters of gingival inflammation: plaque, calculus, bleeding and gingivitis.
All but one of the 19 selected studies used for data extraction were RCTs. In a meta-analysis on long-term studies (> 4 weeks), CHX-MW provided significantly better effects regarding plaque control (WMD = 0.19; 95%CI = 0.08 to 0.30, 2 studies, N= 159 participants) However, no significant difference was found with respect to reduction of gingival inflammation (WMD = -0.03; 95%CI = -0.16 to 0.09, 1 study, N=77 participants) and staining (WMD = -0.42; 95%CI = -0.94 to 0.01, 1 study, N= 77 participants). The stated differences in calculus formation favoring EO-MW and the lack of difference in gingival bleeding were based on the authors' interpretation of the data from the individual studies rather than a meta-analysis.
"In long-term use, the standardized formulation of EO-MW appeared to be a reliable alternative to chlorhexidine mouthwash with respect to parameters of gingival inflammation."
Study was self-funded by the authors and the Academic Center for Dentistry Amsterdam, University of Amsterdam and VU University Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Daily oral hygiene controls plaque development, which is the key to preventing gingivitis. In long-term use, essential oil mouthwashes appear to be as effective as chlorhexidine mouthwashes in reducing gingival inflammation.
This systematic review followed acceptable guidelines. The authors considered quality assessment parameters, statistical validity, and conducted a risk of bias analysis. The authors searched two electronic databases seeking only English language articles. They performed meta-analysis using the mean and standard deviations of baseline and end-point data, which is not what is usually expected. In the end, they included only two studies in the meta-analysis from the 19finally included.
Most studies were considered to have a low risk of bias as shown by a consistent Grade A as determined by the Center of Evidence-Based Medicine scale. The authors compared CHX-MW to EO-MW; however, they did not include a 'no-mouthwash' or placebo group for comparison. Due to lack of evidence the authors were unable to analyze the treatment effects as a function of different levels of plaque, calculus, bleeding and gingivitis.
The primary method of plaque control is still mechanical removal of plaque with toothbrush and interdental devices such as woodsticks (Hoenderdos et al. 2008). When long-term (>4 weeks) anti-inflammatory oral care is needed, EO-MW appears to be a reliable alternative to CHX-MW with respect to controlling gingival inflammation. There is limited evidence that EO-MW (i.e., Listerine) may be a reliable alternative to CHX-MW (i.e., Peridex) in managing different levels of gingivitis. Dentists should exercise caution when utilizing these conclusions as it is still not clear what level of gingival inflammation is needed to prevent progression from gingivitis to significant periodontitis.

The 16-member Constitutional Revision Commission was appointed last year to rewrite Alabama's 376,000-word state Constitution, article by article. On Friday, the commission will take up "home rule" — the ability of county governments to regulate matters in their jurisdiction. Most counties have little home rule, meaning that countywide regulations must be implemented by state statute or amendment.
"Friday's meeting will be a wide-open discussion," said Othni Lathram, director of the Alabama Law Institute, which does much of the administrative work for the commission.
The Association of County Commissions of Alabama has already weighed in on the matter, recommending a set of changes that would give counties interim power to regulate their own affairs, pending review by lawmakers when the Legislature is in session.
A collection of anti-poverty groups, including Alabama Appleseed, is pushing for self-rule for all counties, with an opt-out provision for counties where voters reject the idea.
Both plans are included as possible options in a draft set of proposals that will come before the commission Friday. Those proposals, released by the Alabama Law Institute Wednesday, also include a plan to give counties power to reject state laws that change the composition of county commissions or that divert or earmark county revenue.
Lathram said all the proposals in the draft are starting points for conversation, and shouldn't be viewed as ironclad.
"This will be the first in-depth discussion," he said. "Though I'm sometimes surprised at how quickly the commission digs in."
None of the draft proposals gives counties new power to raise taxes. Even without taxing authority, home rule could be a hard sell in some counties. Voters in mostly rural Marshall County, for instance, rejected limited home rule in 2010.
According to newspaper accounts from the time, opponents of home rule saw the county's increased enforcement power as an infringement on their property rights.
Proponents of home rule say the lack of local control is one reason the Alabama Constitution has grown so long, with more than 800 amendments governing a variety of county-level issues. Voters have sometimes seen amendments governing city-level matters, but cities generally have more self-rule authority than counties.
"It should be equalized," Calhoun County Administrator Ken Joiner said in an interview earlier this week. Joiner said that local elections provide the checks and balances to keep cities from abusing their powers. The same would be true for counties, he said.
The Constitutional Revision Commission will meet Friday at 10 a.m. at the Statehouse in Montgomery.

TELLURIDE – The Town of Telluride's affordable housing guidelines recently underwent a substantial revision in response to the ever-evolving affordable housing environment. At its meeting last week, the Telluride Town Council unanimously approved several key amendments to the guidelines in a joint resolution with the Telluride Housing Authority.
"In general, the update incorporates procedural and policy improvements deriving from past experience with the administration and management of the Town's deed-restricted program, and recent lotteries," explained Telluride Housing Authority's program director Lance McDonald in a memo to council.
Several key changes in the guidelines pertain specifically to renters in the affordable housing market.
For example, an asset limitation requirement for occupant candidates now applies to renters as well as buyers. As spelled out in the guidelines, the asset limitation is twice the specific unit's allowed sales price.
Another amendment allows the Town of Telluride to construct rental units. Formerly, town-built affordable housing units had to be owner-occupied. Should the town decide to pursue a rental project, occupant qualifications and eligibility criteria for the project will be developed by the THA Subcommittee and designated by resolution of the Telluride Town Council.
The new guidelines also tweak the definition of a "tenant" to encompass "roommates." Formerly, roommates were permitted to rent a room within an owner-occupied housing unit, provided they met the employment qualification standard spelled out in the guidelines. As amended, roommates must now be considered the same as other tenants, and thus be required to meet higher occupant qualification standards of employment, income and assets.
Several changes were made to the guidelines in order to "broaden the net" as to who is eligible for affordable housing.
In some cases, this means that more lower-income families now have a better shot at qualifying as buyers. For example, the initial maximum sale price a developer may ask for a newly developed one-bedroom mitigation unit has been lowered, with the intention of placing these units within reach for lower income applicants. Under the old regulations, a one bedroom unit cost $156,000-$209,000. Under the newly adopted amendment, that price will drop to $137,000, a 10 percent reduction.
The allowed maximum rent for such units has also been lowered by 10 percent.
Another change seeks to help more middle-income families qualify for affordable housing by raising qualifying income levels for Tier 2 housing. In this category, the allowable upper income level increased from 150 percent to 180 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI).
According to McDonald, this amendment was crafted in response to experiences with recent lotteries and exception hearings, in which several potential affordable home purchasers were above the 150 percent AMI limit. (Currently a three-person household income at the 150% AMI level is $114,300, and $137,160 at the 180% level.)
The lottery procedure for town-constructed, for-sale units has also been modified to allow for a two-stage process. The first stage is reserved for participants who do not require an exception to be qualified. If any units are left over, a second lottery will be held for those applicants who require exceptions to meet qualification standards. Applicants will be entered into the lottery only if their exceptions are approved.
"This seems more fair so that people who really do qualify are getting in," observed Councilor Bob Saunders.
Those wishing to purchase affordable housing in Telluride will now be required to obtain a fixed rate mortgage, or apply for an exception.
Council expressed support for the proposed changes, and praised the process through which they were crafted. "It has taken a lot of heavy lifting to get to this point," observed Councilor Chris Myers. "We want to see that employees and qualified residents are retained in this community. These guidelines ensure that those we are targeting are the recipients (of affordable housing)."
Mayor Stu Fraser agreed. "This revision process has taken a tremendous amount of insight," he said.
The Telluride Affordable Housing Guidelines were first adopted in 1994. This was only their second substantial revision; the last major update occurred in 2007. The guidelines set forth the policies for eligibility and qualifications for occupancy and ownership, and establish pricing and certain development standards, applicable to all deed-restricted units created by the Town of Telluride's various housing programs.

Authenic Sicilian – I can remember in the last 12 years of going to Fiore', only once having bad service. The food is fantastic, and my favorite dish is the Sicilian pasta. The atmosphere reminds me of Italian restaurants from the 60's, lots of hanging grapes, I know, it's not neuvo italiano, it's comfortable, real. There are regulars there, and the witress always remebers my name, even if I skip going for a year! Oh, and the pizza is fantastic too~ incredible crust!
Okay for family style dinner – Well, I won?t say it was terrible, but I don?t know that I?ll be going back anytime soon. The food was okay but, also it was priced very reasonable. So if you?re looking for home style cooking at a fair price, I would say it was not bad. Paper napkins, plastic covered the tables. If you?re looking for elegance, romantic and quiet setting, I think I would look for something else.
Unfortunately what made the experience bad was our waitress, she was a little young and the cousin of the owner. I think she needed a job and they figured why not let her be a waitress. (Bad move on there part.) Example, I asked what the specials were and she said, ?there up on the board were you came in.? Then after reviewing the menu, I asked what the fresh fish of the day was, she replied, ?well, its fresh fish?, I again asked, ?but what kind of fish,? she said again, ?FRESH.? So I dropped it. Turns out she went back to ask and the fish was halibut, but they were sold out (this was at 7:15pm.) Besides these few things she was okay. We had Calamari for the appetizer (okay) and the Manicotti and Veal Parmesan for our main dish. Good, but over cooked in the broiler, i.e. very, very hot and blackened on the edges.
Guess I was just expecting an elegant and romantic evening? Not at Fiori D?Italia.
All around good out of the way place to go! – This is a good all around place to go for Italian food. The prices are good, the food is excellent, and the service is just right. The bar is cozy and has a wide selection of liquors, it is non-smoking. If you are a smoker, there is another gbar on the other side of the building . The atmosphere is a little more Alaskana than Italian, but it is a good value.
Best Italian food, hands down. – This is a wonderful restaurant that isn't nearly as popular as it should be. My husband and I go there far too often as it is our favorite place to eat in town. They serve very authentic Italian food that is absolutely wonderful. My personal favorite is the chicken caesar salad (it's the best on the planet, hands down) and my husband loves the Stromboli. Although I'm sure anything you order will be equally as delicious. The atmoshere and service are great too. The restaurant is owned and run by an italian family so it has a very authentic, warm feel to it. One last thing to add...this is not a tourist trap which is wonderful. I get the feeling that it's advertising is done pretty much by word of mouth. Bottom line, Fiori D'Italia is a fabulous restaurant and I reccomend it to anyone with good taste craving fresh, authentic italian food.

The holiday travel rush is on at San Antonio International Airport.
And late Friday afternoon, many of those passengers were greeted with an unexpected surprise when they hit the ticket counters -- no lines.
"I thought it was going to be a lot busier," a passenger said.
Charles Freude, who was flying to Oklahoma, thought the airport was going to be busier.
"we walked in and saw that it was almost empty and I was like, 'Whoa, this is great'" he said.
Airport staff said they were expecting a heavy flow of travelers coming in and out of San Antonio, but so far the extra staff on hand to handle the holiday rush hasn't been needed.
Leslie Gongora and her family drove in from Kerrville to hop a flight to New Jersey.
"This will be the first time we've gone since the storm (Sandy), so we'd like to see the ferris wheel in the ocean," Gongora said. "Hopefully, there wont be any bad weather."
Airport officials said passengers can help make things easier by arriving two hours before their flight leaves, check on their flight prior to leaving home, do not wrap gifts and label bags and luggage.

The Kruger National Park is huge – it's about 8000 square miles and is the largest game reserve in South Africa. We spent a whole day driving round the park and air-conditioning was a godsend; without it, the heat would have been unbearable.
There are too many different species to mention, but we did manage to see some elephants and plenty of zebras, springboks, and giraffes. Also, you can break your day up at the various restaurants and cafes around the park, and even get close to the warthogs that wander around looking for left over food.
We also took a drive up to Thulamela Hill where we saw the excavated remains of an Iron Age settlement.
You can stay in the park at one of the many hotels, but if you are on a day trip, the park is open from 6:30am to 6pm every day and the entrance fee is around R30 for adults.
My main tips would be to take plenty of water, keep your camera ready at all times (as you can quickly miss the cheetahs), and lastly, keep your windows closed.

2) How to organize your day? It's best to rise with the sun around 6 o'clock. This is the best time for the safari: the animals are more numerous, the weather is cool and the light perfect for photography. You can return towards 9h30-10h00 to the camp to eat a solid breakfast or brunch. Then come the hot hours, you could rest or participate in other activities (shopping, reading, writing postcards). It is useful to go to the rangers headquarters--you can find out which places the elephants or the lions were spotted that day. After midday you can hit the road until 17h30-18h00. Make sure you return before nightfall because the gates of the camps close at sun down.
3) Types of safaris. The basic idea is to mix the pleasures--you'll have more chances to spot the famous " big 5 " (lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard). In addition to the traditional safari in an individual car, the camps propose " game watching ". This is tour organized in 4WD or truck with qualified rangers. Of course you lose some personal freedom (you would share the vehicle with other tourists), but the vehicle goes away from the usual zones, and the guide knows the places where animals go. The price is $15 for 3 hours. To get information, contact the rangers headquarters. It is recommended to book in advance (the morning for the evening). The third manner is the pedestrian safari. Organized only by the camp of Skukuza, it offers a marvelous proximity with nature. Two or three rangers armed with rifles escort a half-dozen of people; emotions guaranteed!

In order to avoid the Easter traffic, we booked a B&B in Nelspruit for Thursday night. On Friday morning, we decided to drive the 73km to the Malelane Gate and take a leisurely drive through the park to the Phabeni Gate near Hazyview. Our plans were thwarted -- no more day visitors were allowed because the 'Park was Full'. Pleading had as much effect as a water pistol has in fighting an out-of-control bushfire, so we had to retrace our steps.
We arrived at Sanbonani at 1:35pm and were advised that 'no one will be allowed into units until EXACTLY 2pm! By this time, my mother (88) and my elderly overseas visitor (74) were overdue for a relaxing cup of tea. Eventually 2pm arrived! The first thing we saw on entering the main bedroom was a huge wet patch on the carpet, with some four towels padding the area around the air conditioner! We made a call to the maintenance department and were advised to 'keep the shower curtain INSIDE the bath when taking a shower'. Despite diligently adhering to this, it did not stop the deluge of water from the air conditioners in BOTH downstairs bedrooms! We are still working on the de Bono logic, which seems to mysteriously connect a shower curtain with malfunctioning air conditioners.
Our first evening on the patio was interrupted by a sharp 'CRACK' as my nose connected with the patio sliding door that had mysteriously closed itself in the space of a few minutes! Although an avid birder, the twitterings of birdsong that invaded my headspace for two hours after the event left me totally unimpressed! Despite diligent application of icepacks, the week saw me nursing a very tender nasal protuberance!!!!
The next day was going to make up for everything, of course. We set the alarm for 4:15am and I had everyone up and dressed for a trip to the park by 5am. We spent seven hours in the park and saw a lot of long, green grass and one lone elephant bull on our way out. Fortunately, he made up for the lack of numbers by chasing us about 200m down the road, much to the consternation of my Dutch visitor!!!!
On Easter Sunday, I woke with a splitting headache, earache, and a throat that felt thoroughly sandpapered! This in addition to my tender proboscis, now twice its normal size and doing its utmost to ruin my reputation as a person of sober habits! A visit to the doctor, plenty of drugs, and a whole eight days later, I still felt as though I'd been Ali's sparring partner!!!!
I guess some holidays have to be less than ordinary in order to make one appreciate the ones where nothing goes wrong.

Be sure to keep your windows closed and air conditioning up (summer can be VERY hot). Make sure you hae enough to eat and drink in the car as getting out of the car is only permitted within the boundary of the camps. There are restaurants in all the big camps where you can get something cool to drink and something mourish to eat.

Night circulation is prohibited, be careful because the night falls quickly, and numbers tourists were trapped and has to spend one night additional in the lodges. There are seven different access gates. The entrance fee is about $5 per person. Maps of the park are available. They are very useful to locate the water holes and to define its way. Many and comfortable bush camps strew the reserve, the largest are those of Skukuza and Satara.
