Kihei Studio Rental Photos and Description
Condominium Studio + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)
Kihei Akahi is a remodeled studio with a private, tropical view of palms and flowers. This comfortable vacation rental has a queen-size wall bed that easily folds up to save space, full kitchen with a new stove, refrigerator, Italian tile floor, ceiling fan, 25 inch TV, DC, phone, along with a washer and dryer within the unit for convenience. Enjoy the quiet and privacy of the outdoor patio (lanai) at this Hawaiian garden condo. Nice pool and tennis courts are available on this vacation rental property.
Kihei Akahi is located one mile north of the magnificent Wailea resorts and golf courses. Across the road from these condos is beautiful Kamaole Beach Park II in South Kihei, one of the most picturesque, fine white sand beaches in Maui, which also has excellent snorkeling.
The great location is close to two additional gorgeous sandy beaches, many shops, restaurants, a great health food store, and a full mailing/copy center with internet access. Since these vacation rentals are easy walking distance to shops and many restaurants, you could save the expense of a rental car.
- Suitability:
- non smoking only
- pets not allowed
About Michael Gach
We live less than a mile from our Kihei Kai Nani condo and Kihei Akahi studio -- so we can personally keep it in excellent condition. We love Maui and our condos enable us to share the Aloha spirit with others. We especially LOVE the ocean. Ever since we first met and swam in synch with each other, we knew a place like Maui was meant for us. As a family, we share these gorgeous beaches with our 7 year old and enjoy every time.
We find it fulfilling to share special places, beaches, and the best places to eat with our guests -- since we know the area like the palm of our hand. Kihei beaches are the best, and have fabulous weather. There is no where else on earth we'd rather be. We hope you'll enjoy all that Hawaii on your next vacation.
Barbara, Camry & Michael Gach
Hawaii Tax ID #: W30368046-01
Michael Gach purchased this studio in 2002
Why Michael Gach chose Kihei
We chose to buy this special vacation rental because of its air flow, and privacy. Plus this condo is so close to three gorgeous beaches and a great variety of restaurants.
You can easily save hundreds of dollars by not renting a car, since our condo is in such a fabulous location. We'll let you know how to get picked up at the airport and be driven to the door -- its ideal.
I asked a condo management company that I trusted what vacation rental property was most popular and was rated highest by most guests. I feel fortunate to be guided to have a unit at Kihei Akahi, especially being in the private location of our studio. Over 90% of the units face over other condos, parking lots, or roof tops - however our unit is completely private. If you choose our private studio your be with the palms, birds, and tropical flowers.
What makes this studio unique
Unique private, secluded, comfortable, upgraded studio with wifi. Two nice pools, BBQs, 3-minute walk to a gorgeous beach, plus Hope (Marie) who will make sure that everything is right, so you can enjoy our comfortable condo.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Hello Michael & Barbara,
We want to thank you for allowing to stay at your condo. It was just what we wanted and more - the remodeled condo is outstanding - great kitchen, comfortable bedroom and living room that seemed spacious, and even a elegant bathroom. Everything was close - it was a great location.
We truly loved it.

I Love these ladies. There is not much more I can say but take a listen to the interview!-DocFB
Diagnosis: Yea, I'm done with Ping Pong. Now...when can I get "PLECTRUMELECTRUM"...?
EMINEM Talks Biggie, Beasties and 2PAC In New Rolling Stone
EMINEM is about to appear on ESPN alongside Brent Musburger. Why does he all of a sudden look spaced out?
I knew we were about to show the 'Berzerk' video, so I was doing what I call the Berzerk face," he says. "The whole song to me feels like vintage Beastie Boys. And you know the 'Pass the Mic' video where Ad-Rock is making that face, kind of not looking the camera? I was doing my own version."
Eminem discusses this in the new issue of Rolling Stone with Eminem on the cover. This is Em's 8th cover of Rolling Stone.
He talks about that this is the happiest he has ever been and that rap saved him although because of that he considers himself to be an idiot savant.
For what Eminem had to say about the Beastie Boys, Biggie, and Pac, click here...
Ariana Grande Comes To The Defense Of Miley Cyrus
Ariana Grande is not afraid to run from the subject of Miley Cyrus and is also is one of her defenders.
Grande tells Complex Magazine....
"Miley looks like she is having the time of her life, and I think anybody who's giving her a hard time is wishing deep down they were having as much as she is right now. People are being so cruel. I think that's bullying, and she should do whatever the hell she wants. Everybody needs to have more fun. If it's not your taste, don't look at it. I get so hyped up about the Miley thing because I think she's cool."
OK. Ariana tho, can you tell her to put her tongue back in her mouth already?-DocFB
Diagnosis: Does Miley have an opening act for her tour yet?
Katy Perry Talks About God; "Accountability Works"
Two fine. Maybe even three fine. For W Magazine's November issue though, Katy Perry appears on W magazine with 2 different covers. Oh, and she talks about John Mayer again. You guys know they are together right? Just wanted to make sure you didn't miss it.
Oh, Katy also discussed religion. Wonder how many bloggers/music writers are brave enough to put "G O D" in the title of a post?
In talking about John, she did keep it brief:
"I actually am dating my crush. I had a crush on him for a long time, and it just so happens we fit together great."
As for her single "Roar", to Katy, it is a movement:
"This song is about sticking up for yourself. People talk about bullying, but you can be your own bully in some ways. You can be the person who is standing in the way of your success, and that was the case for me. I was having a great professional streak, but personally, I was really immature, so I had to balance those things out. If you are not happy with something, you should change it.
Katy also expressed one of the hardest things to talk about in an interview without seeming crazy, her religious views:
"I try and keep my connection with G-O-D or with a power that's bigger than me. It's important - otherwise, you don't have any kind of accountability. If you think, Hey, at the end of it all I am just going to be dust, or I have no soul or whatever, why not just be a menace to society? For me, accountability works."
Katy doesn't run from the question and her background of her parents being preachers and where she came from will make sure she is asked that question 99 times out of a 100 when she is interviewed.-DocFB
Diagnosis: The religion question. It is a trap a majority of the time. Aside from saying "God is great" or "God is good" or exact quotes from the bible, it is a trap. There is nothing wrong with believing or not believing. The more interviewers ask that question, the more I think they are lacking something and looking for an answer themselves.
The Kanye West Jimmy Kimmel Interview Showed Kanye's Genius
Last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kanye kept it real. He showed his intelligence, his sense of humor, his arrogance his drive, and his anger. It was the best interview of his career so far. By far.
Sometimes when you do not get along with the interviewer, it brings out a realness in you. From the start of the show, Kimmel was apologetic to Kanye. Kanye kept it real with Kimmel. He never apologized for his comments but did admit he did not see the skit in it's entirety that started the feud.
When Kanye compared being a "Celebrity" to being in a zoo, he is 100 percent correct. He thanked the paps for showing how fly his outfit is. After a long flight or showing up at 4 A.M. to his house where his girlfriend and baby are trying to get into a car, that press is not needed.
What I got from Kanye is someone who is articulate and smart and wants to be all he can be. If that pisses off old money, then so be it. No one should be limited to one thing. I 100 percent agree.
Kanye is angry and being able to vent like this may help him. There is anger issues there for being misunderstood and being arrogant. The more he expressed himself, the more you could see where he is coming from.
As for Kim Kardashian getting a star on the walk of fame....she is more than a reality star now. The problem is if they give Kim one, then Honey Boo Boo will want one and then Jon Gosseling would have had one. She is more than a reality star and the family rubs people the wrong way. Kim will get a star on the walk of fame someday.
Kanye is sticking up for his woman and the people that are now his family. He is sticking up for himself and the vision he has created and made Kanye West a rapper, a brand, and so much more. Kanye is the American Dream.-DocFB
Diagnosis: Be all YOU can be. Don't worry about what others think. Do what you want to do...and be the best at it.
Fishy! Kanye West To Appear On Jimmy Kimmel Live After "Feud"!
So did Jimmy Kimmel just prank everyone again? Was his so-called feud with Kanye West just for media attention? Regardless, it worked and Kanye will sit down with Jimmy tonight on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Kanye tweeted angrily at Kimmel after making fun of him on a BBC Live interview and replacing him with kids but keeping the dialog. The next night, Kimmel read Kanye's tweets about him on air, poking fun at him more.
The video has been removed on Kimmel's YouTube channel. Kanye has since deleted the tweets as well.
So will we see a meltdown on TV or a smiling Kanye laughing it all off? Guess we will have tune in. Duped!-DocFB
Diagnosis: Kanye taking a page out of Miley's book a little bit...

The Martinsburg VA Medical Center activated its Emergency Operations Center today in response to the ongoing extreme heat advisory and the powerful wind and rain storm last night. The medical center is operating under normal conditions at this time.
Martinsburg VA Medical Center patients who are without power and need oxygen supplies should contact Columbia Ancillary Services at 800-475-4425.
Veterans and members of the community are encouraged to seek cool locations and drink plenty of fluids. Cooling locations have been set up at the Martinsburg Mall, Hedgesville High School and all area volunteer fire departments EXCEPT Back Creek Valley.
Heat is the No. 1 weather-related killer in the U.S. Heat-related illness results in hundreds of fatalities each year. On average, extreme heat claims more lives each year than floods, lightning, tornadoes and hurricanes combined. But what if you don't understand what your weather professional is telling you?
The terminology used by local and national weather outlets and agencies provide guidance on weather events, but do we really know what the terms in the guidance mean? The Federal Emergency Management Agency and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration websites provide an excellent starting point. Understanding the words and phrases used in warnings and alerts will help you begin to make choices and decisions truly focused on prevention and safety for you, loved ones, friends and co-workers.
Just like FEMA and NOAA, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provides information vital in understanding and preventing heat-related illness. From preventing a heat-related health issue or recognizing when one exists, the extreme-heat information on the CDC website will help you keep everyone around you safe.

Microsoft 'poised' to SPAFF A BEELLION on e-book also-ran Nook
Microsoft is poised to offer $1bn for e-book publisher Nook Media, which was spun out from bookshop biz Barnes and Noble, it is believed. Internal company documents suggest Nook will abandon its line of Android-powered e-reader tablets to focus on delivering electronic content across various platforms. And that would include …
In the past M$ was able to just make darkness the industry standard when the light bulb blew, but they are not in the monopoly position any more.
I know competition is required in all markets, but unless you can do better than the alternatives, why bother?
In the UK, rather than doing a better job, industry just tries to get our Govt to legislate against the competition (check the crap web applications/search engines vs Google for example)
The only reason Google get any sales on their books is probably because people try their app out a few times. Amazon are the big runners and if Google cant stuff em, what chance Microsoft?
or do they just have a billion they will loose in tax otherwise (not to the UK obviously) they need to shift? Their thinking, anything is better than giving this money to the various country's who provide the framework in which we can safely make our money?
The only reason Google get any sales on their books?
While I agree with your comments about M$ competition, I don't believe that Google's position is as dire as you believe. The Google bookshop has nearly all of the titles that Amazon has, at competitive prices; and critically, with Google it is easy to download an ePub, strip out the DRM, and use that standard file on any device you like. Unlike Amazon, there is no need for specialised apps or devices to read Google books.
Re: The only reason Google get any sales on their books?
It's easy to strip the DRM off a Amazon ebook as well*, and Calibre will then convert it into any format you could want.
It's more a case of which monopoly you feel like giving your money to this week.
*(For personal archive reasons only of course.)
"Which monopoly"?
Huh? Neither Google nor Amazon hold a monopoly position in the ebook business, not by a long shot. Perhaps you simply meant to say "big company", rather than "monopoly"?
MSFT the Value Destroyer
Hotmail, Skype and now this. Is there no ending with MSFT's voracious appetite to buy high, sell low?
This is doomed to be yet another EPIC FAIL.
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
Microsoft has done well with Hotmail (400 million users now on Outlook.com) and Skype (250 million users)
Once Lync integrates closely with Yammer and Skype, Microasoft are going to make an even larger bundle from the corproates with that stack...
You know Microsoft just announced profits up 20%?
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
I was about to ask if you are Eadon in disguise, but then I saw Eadon's comment below.
God help us, there's two of you now.

Gotta love Eadon / Shagbag, it give a certain comedy value to the comments section
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
TheVogon is the commentard formerly known as RICHTO, a sort of Eadon-antiparticle. The odd thing though is that they have very rarely been active at the same time.
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
But at least TheVogon/RICHTO/Eadon/ShagBag are couragous enough to post their opinions under their own identities -- in contrast to the ubiquitous astroturfers who invariably post as AC!
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
"But at least TheVogon/RICHTO/Eadon/ShagBag are couragous enough to post their opinions under their own identities -- in contrast to the ubiquitous astroturfers who invariably post as AC!"
Have to laugh when people use that argument while posting under a pseudonym. Usually rationalised with "You can see peoples' posting history and judge from that whether they're shilling/astroturfing/trolling/stupid/whatever denial I'm making!" If you can't judge a comment from its content, well. I have no advice for you other than back to English class (with respect to The Register, anyway.) When the aforementioned anti-AC argument has been used in the past, it's generally come across as "Hmm. This guy has posted something I disagree with. He's done that before. He's a shill blah blah blah." Not to actually judge a post, then, but to find an excuse to write it off because you don't like it.
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
MS don't have the ability to deliver anymore, so they buy buy buy. And the result is, predictably, a complete mess, with each camp fighting internal political battles for turf.
Microsoft has a long history of buying up companies, both to quash competition and to expand its portfolio. Once upon a time, a viable business model was to create a startup, catch the Beast of Redmond's eye, sell the business, and retire. This works so well that other companies do it, too, even in the tech industry (e.g. Google, Facebook, Intel). In fact, I cannot imagine MS being the first to run this strategy, but they certainly made it work. Sure, there were some clunkers in the mix, but that is the price of business.
BTW, Eadon, do you do stand-up as well as written comedy? Good stuff!
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
I think Skype had about as many users before being bought by Microsoft, Hotmail was well established before Microsoft too.
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
My thoughts 8^)
But on the positive side, we must that M$ did not ruin those like they did in so many other cases.
And we have no idea what they lost on the Skype and Hotmail deal. Amazing how much money they seem to be making in the few success areas. But this will work for a limited time only.
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
How did you miss Nokia?
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
"MS has bought 3 similar solutions"
Fail right there.
I guess you still use CC:Mail under your rock, but in the real world, Lync is a unified communications package aimed at corporates, whereas Skype is a consumer focused communications tool. Linking them together will give a unified way for consumers to contact companies from their desktop and visa versa. Microsoft monetises Lync via license fees and Skype via adverts and VOIP call charges.
Yammer is a very different beast. It's like a cross between Linked in and Facebook for corporates: https://www.yammer.com/product/features/accessing-yammer/

Actually they always did "buy, buy, buy". MS-DOS (SCP), FrontPage (Vermeer), IE (from SpyGlass), VisualBasic (Tripod), MSC (from Lattice), PowerPoint (Forethought Inc), ...

Wake up and smell the coffee, All big Tech companies buy smaller tech companies for their outside-box-thinking and small firm intellectual mobility. It is how it is done.
Re: MSFT the Value Destroyer
"WHY? Apple's strategy was stronger, "
You mean buy out other companies, just like MS? There is a thing called a search engine. Find one and type "Apple buys out", and look at one of the 1st hit, it may help you in your dark and lonely word.
OK can I explain to every one how it works in the big boy world of business
Businesses don't buy other companies for the staff (in the vast majority of cases), nor the hardware. It's true I promise. They buy the brand, technology and the user base, end of. Stock is just an added bonus / hassle.
Don't believe me? Why bother buying Jessops or HMV when they go broke? Just start a new one, saves sorting out all the crap with the administrators.
Why take over a company but bin the staff?
If you can buy a company with 200 million users, then that's 200 million less you have to sign up. 200 million that you can merge and migrate.

Re: Another firm ruined then.
Anyone else think Eadon is just short for Eadon't know what e's on about...?
Why don't they just hatch a deal with Amazon - who sell more books on iPad than Apple do IIRC. Make Kindle the 'official' reader app for Windows.
There's already a Kindle app for both Windows 8 and Windows Phone, so they don't really need to do anything. However it's pretty obvious that there is a market for digital books that is potentially a high profit sector, so why not move into that space too?
Because fragmentation is a pain when moving devices. They could agree not to launch their own service in return for a share of Amazon's profits. DRM aside, Kindle is a great cross-platform solution.
Kindle is only a great cross-platform solution if you consider buying all your content from a single store to be a good idea. Personally I think it's desperately short sighted idea.
There is no reason that any consumable media that a person purchases like music, video or books should be tied to a single device, or to a single store. At the very least the DRM and formats should be supported by a wide variety of stores and devices. The closest thing to that for books would be EPUB with Adobe Digital Editions as the DRM.
Of course a far worse problem is that technically nobody is buying books at all, just the licence to read the book. And book sites lock themselves in with publishers into contracts that don't explicitly collude to keep prices high but the contracts essentially mean prices are kept high.
sleep with the Amazon tiger?
easy picking is what they want. No point in forging a deal with someone who currently thinks bigger than you.
The world is getting more competitive where both manufacturing and bricks and mortar outfits are made near bankrupt and then either enslaved or bought on the cheap.
They simply have no choice no the matter.
Well a billion may be too much, they seem to be in some sort of supply and demand difficulty, as witnessed here: https://twitter.com/NOOK_Care_UK

Re: Nook
"Barnes and Noble are currently saying there is no stock. Nook UK are saying they are shipping. Someone is telling pork pies."
Maybe Nook is fulfilling existing orders and can't sell any more until they get new stock in, assuming they ever do.
I know from personal experience that last Saturday Argos didn't have a single Nook in the whole of Northern Ireland and neither did any branch of PC World or Currys. The Nook website said temporarily unavailable. I was lucky to have sauntered into an Argos Extra on the Sunday and their system showed there were 230 in stock in their Home Delivery service. Now home delivery shows there are zero. Fortunately I ordered one while they were there with free p&p too.
Basically they're gone.
Re: Nook
I ordered mine 2nd May, they said they didn't have stock to cover that... The order numbers shown on twitter have incrememnt by 100,000 since my order.
Re: Nook
I ordered my Simple touch on the 1st, turned up yesterday. considering (in the UK at least) the 4th, 5th and 6th were not 'business days' and that it came from somewhere in the Netherlands, i cant see the problem
Re: Nook
I ordered one via the Blackwell's website on 1/5. Got the following today. Looks like I have time for a few refreshers before it arrives. I'm buying because the price is a good 'un. Considered a Kobo but never plunged. Rootable Android is a bonus :-)
We understand you are still waiting for your NOOK® Simple Touch. Due to an unprecedented number of orders, NOOK® have been delayed in delivering the stock needed to fulfil your order.
We sincerely apologise for this delay and would like to assure you that we are doing everything we can to expedite this delivery. We have been informed by our supplier that the shipment is on its way, so we expect to be able to start despatching orders by Wednesday next week. We shall of course confirm by email once your order has been shipped.
We would like to thank you for your continued patience and apologise once again for any inconvenience caused in this matter.
With very best wishes,
The Blackwell's Team
return of the (c)lit. RUUUUN!
There shall be only one. OK, two. And those pesky pedo-pirates.
Microsoft used to have an ebook service
Microsoft Reader used to be their platform and it worked off .lit files (a zipped up HTML predecessor to EPUB) that could be purchased online. Sadly their DRM was not fit for purpose and nobody was especially interested in their Reader software either which might explain why it flopped. I actually owned 20 odd legitimately "purchased" .lit files. I put "purchased" in quotes because MS gave them away as part of a promotion. Some decent books in the list too - I read Bill Bryson's A Short History of Nearly Everything from that giveaway.
Anyway, I got a Nook in the £29 giveaway though it's in the post. Those buggers sold like wildfire and had to order from Argos home delivery to obtain one. Not sure if I'll root it yet, or use it as-is with its built-in EPUB support.
I like my Nook HD (running full Android and lighter and nicer to hold than my wife's Nexus 7). It would be a shame if the line were to be destroyed by Microsoft.
I'm intrigued, will they try to replace Android with Windows 8? Or will they sell Android-based gadgets?
Re: Android?
As Nook are doing a fire sale of all their devices I think you've already got your answer.
Those nice black and white e-readers will not have a Windows RT equivalent as Windows RT's doesn't support that hardware. That'll leave just the more expensive colour e-readers which will be replaced with Windows RT slabs and maybe a UI limited (or should I say further limited) to e-books. And once again we'll have another fascinating example of how Windows RT fails to sell.
Why they think it's necessary to buy the Nook name is a mystery, if they were buying Kobo I could understand it. So much cash and so little idea of what to do with it.
no nooky
Ordered Nook.
Got email saying "problem with card".
Ordered another Nook with different card.
Got email saying "Out of stock, card refunded".
Got email saying "Now no problem with card".
Nook support "Sorry, too busy".
If I had known that Microsoft were involved I would not have bothered in the first place.
Argos have stock of the Glowlight
but the the £29 version is selling too fast. I got my cheapo from Asda on Tuesday when they were in stock for a matter of hours. The Glowlight is available in most places.
Re: Argos have stock of the Glowlight
Well. So far I have had.
Card not accepted
Card issue corrected
Order will ship
Order won't ship and its cancelled cos we made a mistake
Order cancelled as I haven't given them information they didn't ask for
Order will be with me on the 17th.
I suspect that the email I wrote telling them they established a contract at stage 3 according to their t'sandc's to deliver two ereaders and if they didn't respond within 28 days I'd buy two similar e-readers and charge them the difference may have had an effect.
Dunno how many will actually be delivered though!
Nook Care Issues
Just looking at their twitter feed, weird that it's the only way to get a response from them, and it appears order numbers are now 300,000 higher than my still to be delivered one.
I don't think that means there are several hundred thousand orders for the e-reader outstanding, I only found out about the site from a comment here. So I suspect those ord.nos are generate for all sales including ebooks etc, possibly worldwide sales too ?
As it is, I'm not holding out any hope of getting one, it'll probably drag on for weeks, and ruined any chance of me getting one elsewhere. Though no doubt ebay will be awash with sales from people trying to make five quid on the thing.
M$ Love them or hate them, but...
I am no lover of M$, but I don't bash them for the sake of it, from previous press it would seem B & N where going to ditch the Nook anyway, therefore perhaps in this instance it is a good thing to keep another reader in the mix.
M$ like most big companies when it lacks a technology goes and acquires, must be cheaper to spend $1bn and hit the ground running, than the costs of starting up R&D, with a few years before you get a product to market, by which time the market has moved on.
Skype seems a better fit for M$ than it ever did for ebay. Hotmail, a bit of a laugh at first, lets buy it and show how well NT & Exchange servers scale, oops it does not, lets bung a few NT servers on the internet facing side and leave the BSD servers running the backend until we can get it working. Over 10 years later and hotmail is now outlook with millions of users, still going strong. Xbox early days, lets all buy one, as it will break M$ as they are losing $150 ish on every unit sold. Access Database and .....
Love them or hate them doubt they are going anywhere soon.
Re-enter the .. ZUUUUNE!
Mark my words.. the buggers will relaunch it as the Zune. Guess it saves on landfill.
MSFT = Kiss of the death
Goodbye Nook HD/HD+, running the nicest customized Android OS on one of the best-looking, most comfortable-to-hold hardware design - it was nice to know you...
...no, MSFT, thanks, I don't want it - you can go and fork yourself with your ugly, imbecile WP/W8-based Nooks, tablets, whatnot you will release in the future.
It was a horrible mistake when B&N, after developing and releasing the *nicest* media tablets at the time (last Fall), they decided to lock down its App Store, mimicking Amazon's approach without the same firepower (no AWS, no incredible R&D and marketing budget etc)...
...now Google's Play Store is fully available and Nook HD+ is literally dirt cheap for $179 (HD is $149 now) but it's exactly 6 months late, they've missed the entire Christmas season which alone could've saved the entire division (think about the effect on the market of this price tag back then, with full Google store etc.)
Too bad, I'm really sad to see these great devices to go - I think I will just pick up a Nook HD+ this weekend or next week and will enjoy it for a year or two, just like I do my Touchpad ever since HP's firesale in August 2011.

The power of THOUGHT. Love begins with our thoughts. We become what we think about. Loving thoughts create loving experiences and loving relationships. Affirmations can change our beliefs and thoughts about others and ourselves. If we want to love someone, we need to consider his or her needs and desires. Thinking about your ideal partner will help you recognise her when you meet her. The power of RESPECT. You cannot love anyone or anything unless you first respect them. The first person you need to respect is yourself. To begin to gain self-respect, ask yourself, What do I respect about myself? - To gain respect for others, even those you may dislike, ask yourself, What do I respect about them? - The power of GIVING. If you want to receive love, all you have to do is give it! The more love you give, the more you will receive. To love is to give of yourself, freely and unconditionally. Practice random acts of kindness. Before committing to a relationship ask not what the other person will be able to give to you, but rather what will you be able to give them. The secret formula of a happy, lifelong, loving relationship is to always focus on what you can give instead of what you can take. The power of FRIENDSHIP. To find a true love, you must first find a true friend. Love does not consist of gazing into each other"s eyes, but rather looking outward together in the same direction.

Videos posted to an Occupy protest website ahead of the Republican National Convention encourage demonstrators to firebomb police and employ other violent tactics at the August event in Tampa.
"If you are looking for ideas to help you with your action planning, here are some helpful videos!" a statement at the top of the ResistRNC page reads.
One video advises throwing Molotov cocktails at officers, and another shows people at a crowded stadium throw torches onto the field.
The site issued a "Notice to Law Enforcement Spying on Us" that threatens lawsuits if police try to intervene with the committee.
Other groups in support of ResistRNC include CODEPINK and Jesse Jackson's Rainbow PUSH Coalition, according to a report.

WebCT has been purchased by Bb and is being phased out as a CMS. The last semester of operation of WebCT within our district is Spring 09 (June 23).
All instructors must migrate their courses after that. June 23, 2009 will be the last date to access data.
Unfortunately, there is no conversion tool to allow quick and easy migration (and there is none planned). Give yourself plenty of time to complete the transition. Here are some of the major differences between WebCT and Blackboard and how to best handle the migration process. Note that the best way to learn Blackboard might be use some of the Tutorials or go to other areas on this site.
Some Major Differences
Control Panel
(pages are added from here)
Email (external and sent to home/school email addresses)
Messaging (internal similar to WebCT but no alert when email is received)
Questions can be added from question sets you create
Tests can be changed (including modification of questions and answer choices) after students have taken the tests.
Tests are created in the "Test Manager" either by creating questions in the test itself or questions can be imported into tests from question pools you create in the "Pool Manager."
Only text fields can be modified after students have begun taking tests - you should not add or remove questions or answers or change settings. Changes could corrupt entire assignments and grading.
Tom Doyle talks about his experience converting his course from WebCT to Bb.


text: Sentence for Doctor Who Helped Find Bin Laden Thrown Out, Retrial Granted Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 29 Aug 2013 post a comment News is breaking that Pakistani officials have overturned the jail sentence of Dr. Shakil Afridi--the doctor who helped the CIA pinpoint Osama bin Laden. Afridi was arrested for "conspiring against the state of Pakistan" just after the raid on bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan by U.S. Navy SEALs took place. He was sentenced to prison for 33 years in May 2012, one year after bin Laden was killed. Thereafter, efforts to free Afridi were launched by Robert and Kira Lorsch's website, FreeAfridi.com; Breitbart News has extensively covered these efforts. Now, according to an August 29 BBC News report, Afridi's sentence has been thrown out and a "retrial ordered because the previous judge exceeded his authority in handing down the sentence." News coming out today indicates the judge who sentenced Afridi was not a "real judge" but an "official with the status equivalent of a magistrate." A "real judge" will be required to sit over the retrial. Upon receiving this information, Robert and Kira Lorsch released the following statement to Breitbart News: We are thrilled to hear of the progress towards getting Dr. Afridi released and his sentence overturned. This is the kind of thing that happens when the world pulls together to do what's right. There has been a lot of hard work starting in Congress and led by Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA), the entertainment industry and most importantly global support from the media starting with the reporting at Fox and Breitbart News. This gives us hope that with our continued combined efforts, we will welcome this American Hero home to the United States. Afridi will remain in prison until his retrial is concluded. As of now, no date for the retrial has been given. Follow AWR Hawkins on Twitter @AWRHawkins.

text: Things we love about cars There's no end, any more than there's an end to roads or speed or the joy of movement. But 51 reasons seems like a good start. 2. Sounds By Road & Track Staff on 7/5/2013 The rolling wallop of Can-Am cars in Turn Five at Road America, clobbering you in the chest so hard you momentarily forget to breathe. The mind-melting shriek of a modern F1 car. The labored, clattery drone of a 24 Hours of LeMons field. The lean pops of a Weber carburetor as it spits back through open throats. The high-rpm whir of just about any V12's starter motor. The heavy clunk of a Hurst shifter in a Sixties Camaro; the alchemic clack of the lever in an old Ferrari; the violent whunk of the sequential 'box in a 911 GT3 Cup. The groan of old English leather. The creak of old German leather. Porsche 911 doors (tick-thump) versus Shelby Cobra doors (tuk) versus big Cadillac doors (God's medicine cabinet). The full-throttle, rise-of-the-machines brup of a twin-clutch Volkswagen GTI upshift. The keening future-whisper of a Tesla at full throttle.

8 questions Iain Duncan-Smith must now answer
In November 2011 Iain Duncan Smith promised – one million people would be on Universal Credit by April 2014. Three years on fewer than 18,000 people are receiving Universal Credit. Despite over £600million being spent on the new benefit the programme is beset by chaos, waste and delays. This afternoon Iain Duncan Smith was forced to appear before the House of Commons to answer questions about this failing programme.

They left us wanting more – Gordon Brown is only the latest big beast to depart
"Always leave them wanting more." It's not entirely clear who said it first, but this has become one of the more popular, if rarely achieved, political clichés. Of all the recent political leaders we might have expected to stand aside with a clamour for more ringing in his ears, Gordon Brown would not have featured prominently in discussions. Brown's Labour leadership culminated in the party's second worst General Election performance in the post-war era. Although he opted to remain in […]Read more →
Regional banks: a crucial ingredient to help small business
On 19 November, I was at a meeting at the German Embassy with the head of the German Savings Banks Group, Sparkassen, Georg Fahrenschon. Herr Fahrenschon told us that local savings banks were the biggest single driver of economic resilience through the global financial crisis and in the recovery since. This was because of their support for small businesses, which are the backbone of the German economy. In the US, the economic recovery has been far stronger and more sustained […]Read more →
To win back people's trust, we need to be honest about what the limits of politics are
With just over 6 months to go until the next General Election, one would expect there be to a lively debate across the political spectrum mapping the key battlegrounds of the election campaign over the coming months and presenting some of the major policy ideas of each party. Instead there appears to be a general mood of helplessness among both the Conservatives and Labour. Numerous commentators have highlighted a fundamental disconnect between the political class and the electorate; an insidious […]Read more →
Labour will set up a national refuge fund

This pledge is significant given that under the Coalition, cuts have meant that between 2010 and July 2014 the number of […]Read more →

China's investment in the United States will grow by more than 50 percent this year, as the US market becomes more open and transparent, said an official from the Ministry of Commerce.
Last year, China's total overseas direct investment (ODI) in the non-financial sector grew by 36.3 percent from a year earlier to $59 billion, but comparatively, the nation's ODI in the US surged by as much as 81.4 percent year-on-year to $1.39 billion, according to statistics released by the Ministry on Tuesday.
As bilateral economic relations become stronger and Chinese companies' aspiration for overseas expansion increases, the nation's investment in the US will "probably continue to grow rapidly, say by 50 percent", said Yao Jian, a ministry spokesperson.
However, what concerns China is whether the US "can further open the market to Chinese companies, offering transparent laws and reducing the possibility that the approval of proposals from the Chinese side can be delayed, or even rejected, because of so-called security reasons", he added.
On Tuesday, Chinese President Hu Jintao left for Washington on a four-day state visit. The hot topic of "the removal of investment barriers" imposed on China, is expected to be discussed during the bilateral meetings. Other issues include a loosening of controls on high-tech products, recognition of China's market economy status and resistance to trade protectionism, said Yao.
The majority of Chinese investment has flown into manufacturing sector in the US, but during the past year, a new trend has seen some domestic companies beginning to make forays into the US service sector. The Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group acquired two of its US counterparts in 2010.
Meanwhile, the US was one of the three most-rapidly growing markets for Chinese investment in 2010, following the European Union (EU), in which Chinese ODI grew by 297 percent, and Japan, where it rose by 120 percent.
The volume is still small, however. In 2010, the top four overseas markets for the ODI witnessed capital inflows of $33.77 billion (Hong Kong), $2.93 billion (Australia), $2.57 billion (the Association of Southeast Asian Nations) and $2.13 billion for the EU.
Yao attributed the low figure to a lack of "openness and transparency" in the US, citing the obstacles that Chinese companies, including Ansteel, have failed in attempting to purchase US counterparts. "Trade is only part of the bilateral economic relationship, and investment will play a more important role in the future," he said.
China's large trade surplus has been a cause of China-US frictions, and the Chinese government and experts reiterated that more Chinese investment into the US could create jobs and narrow the surplus, and have urged the US to let the market open further.
Two vice-commerce ministers have led delegations to promote Chinese investment into the US and China's imports from the US.
Sharp increase
After rising by 6.5 percent in 2009, China's ODI gained by 36.3 percent last year, with around 40.3 percent of total investment being realized through mergers and acquisitions.
Investment mainly went to sectors such as commercial services (47.3 percent), mining (20.2 percent), manufacturing (10.2 percent) and retail and wholesale (9.3 percent).
"As the internationalization of the yuan accelerates, China's ODI will grow remarkably in the next two years. The growth could reach more than 50 percent this year," said Jinny Yan, economist at Standard Chartered Shanghai.
"Emerging markets and those owning abundant raw materials and resources will be hotspots for Chinese investors, including Canada, Latin-America, Brazil, Australia and South Africa."
China's foreign direct investment (FDI) in 2010 reached a record high of $105.74 billion, up by 17.4 percent year-on-year.
FDI growth of 28.6 percent made a significant contribution to the service sector, as it did in the central and western areas where it was 27.6 percent, said Yao.
The top five sources of the FDI are HK, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and the US.
According to FDI Intelligence, a special division of the Financial Times newspaper, FDI growth into Asia slowed to 6 percent in 2010 from 16 percent in 2009, with China the best performer in the region.

In December 2005, when the war in Iraq was intensifying, President George W. Bush insisted that that country could yet avoid civil war. Bush insisted that the United States must not abandon the Iraqi people in their hour of need.
Eight years later, Iraqis who put their lives on the line to help the United States are in their hour of need. They are waiting for a simple, promised act of gratitude, and it is urgent and necessary that it be provided.
These are the Iraqis who risked their lives to work for the United States as interpreters during the war. Congress passed legislation earmarking visas over five years for these Iraqis, and later for a similar group who helped in Afghanistan. But the application process has been cumbersome and tortuous for many. According to outside estimates, several thousand Iraqis are awaiting word.
The status of the Iraqi applicants has now become more parlous because the original legislation lapsed Monday night, the end of the fiscal year. This may be a procedural speed bump, but the House must not dally. The danger is that, if this law is allowed to lapse for a significant amount of time, all the pending Iraqi applications may be thrown into doubt. The Afghan legislation is valid for another year.
The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have been fought with American blood and that of the Iraqi and Afghan peoples, including those who subscribed to the noble goals of democracy and freedom. They took it on faith that the United States meant what it said.

As most, I've suffered from excessive underarm sweating since I was a teenager. I always wore black clothes to hide the sweat stains and this affected my everyday life. I was always conscious of my problem and hated the fact I couldn't wear certain clothes. After a lot of research I decided to try Miradry.
The procedure is very expensive and even though I read so many reviews were people were not satisfied with the results, I decided to give it a try to hopefully get rid of this condition.
My first procedure was in July 2013 at level 3. I was really nervous, but the procedure was not as bad as I thought. The shots were not painful at all. The swelling lasted a week or so and was very uncomfortable. I had tenderness an numbness for almost 3 months. I didn't have any sweating for about 2 1/2 months, then it started to come back again.
In November 2013, went back for my 2nd procedure at level 4. Same process as the first time. Except this time the sweating came back before 2 months after the procedure and did not improve much.
After my experience, I can say my sweating has been reduced 50% maybe 60%, which is not what I expected. I still sweat everyday, some days more than others, but enough to go through my clothes. I was told the procedure would reduce sweating by 80-90%, which clearly did not happen for me.
My doctor's office offers a third procedure at $500 more. Which I am not sure if I want to do given that I already paid $3,000 for the first two procedures.
It's obvious that this works better for some than others. However; Miradry should offer some type of reimbursement or incentive (maybe a third procedure for free) for those that it didn't work as promised.
Miradry Procedure- Dallas,TX
As most, I've suffered from excessive underarm...
The nurse that performed both procedures was very nice. However; no one at the office followed up with me at all to see how I was doing or to ask about the results.

It's no secret that young girls everywhere are counting down the hours until New Moon hits theaters on Friday. But the second film in the Twilight saga is definitely not your typical fluffy tween obsession: It's darker, edgier and full of heartbreak.
"When you're told after a really daring move that you were really wrong, you feel really stupid," Kristen Stewart, who plays heroine Bella Swan, tells iVillage about her character. "And that's where we find her in New Moon. She's sort of lost everything that she thought completed her."
In the beginning of the movie, Bella goes through an emotional breakup, but the 19-year-old actress says she wasn't drawing from her own life. "I can't really draw from personal experience," says Kristen, who's been romantically linked to costar Robert Pattinson. Reading Stephenie Meyer's New Moon book was the only inspiration she needed.
"It's written really well," Kristen says. "It's the worst breakup I've ever read -- ever. Instead of a breakup scene, I called it a death scene."
Check out our exclusive video to hear Kristen dish about her onscreen chemistry with Robert and share her thoughts on the "hot" Bella Swan Barbie doll.
