WASHINGTON—The first dialogue on human rights between the USA and Burma was "very positive," a senior US official said on Wednesday.
"We are confident that we have now an open channel with the government of Burma to discuss human rights and to continue to work on bringing them where they want to be in terms of human rights standards for their government," the US State Department spokesperson, Victoria Nuland, told reporters at her daily news conference.
The first Human Rights dialogue with the Burmese government was held this week in Naypyidaw by a US delegation led by Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor Michael Posner. The 22-member inter-agency delegation included senior representatives from the White House National Security staff, the Office of the Vice-President, the Department of Homeland Security, the US Agency for International Development, and the Department of Defense.
"The talks reflected our whole-of-government approach for engagement with Burma to address outstanding concerns of the international community in the area of human rights. The results of the dialogue were assessed to be very positive and we look forward to continuing these discussions with Burmese authorities," Nuland said.
"We were able to talk about a broad cross-section of human rights issues," she continued. "You saw that the delegation reflected experts in different aspects of how our government addresses human rights, and we weren't sure whether the Burmese would be open to addressing all of those issues, and they were," she said, adding that she hoped that this would lead to much more human rights dialogue with Burma.
"I'm not going to predict the patience of the Burmese people, but we have all spoken out about the need to get to zero in terms of political prisoners, and we're continuing to work with the government of Burma on that," Nuland said.
US Deputy Secretary of State William Burns is due to arrive in Naypyidaw on Oct. 18. He is scheduled to meet the President Thein Sein, members of his government, and Aung San Suu Kyi, the opposition leader.
Meanwhile, the Secretary-General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, told news reporters in Jeddah that his organization has not received any formal notification from the Burmese that it will not open an OIC humanitarian Office in Burma.
However, he revealed that OIC had earlier received an indirect request from the Ministry of Borders in Burma to postpone the opening of the office. The Minister of Borders had represented the Burmese government in signing the cooperation agreement with the OIC delegation in Burma last month.
Ihsanoglu said the agreement stated that the OIC office was to temporarily supervise the delivery of humanitarian assistance to those affected by sectarian violence in Arakan State, in cooperation with the Burmese government. He stressed that the OIC office will not have a particular nature and will be similar to other humanitarian offices established by organizations in a number of countries affected by humanitarian crises.
According to Ihsanoglu, the Burmese government expressed support for the OIC office during a meeting with an OIC delegation last month and added that OIC has assured Burma that it intends to provide aid to those affected people without ethnic or religious discrimination.
Stressing that the OIC will not politicize humanitarian work, even though it continues its endeavors so that Muslim Rohingya minority can regain its legal and constitutional rights in the country, he said the Organization's move on the restoring of the constitutional rights of the Rohingya would be through official diplomatic channels and not through the mentioned humanitarian office, adding that it is in no one's interest to politicize humanitarian action.
Ihsanoglu said that the move to open such an office was aimed at achieving solidarity among peoples of the Muslim world and other peoples, stating that the Turkish and Indonesian Red Crescent institutions offer humanitarian assistance to all, reflecting an OIC model for humanitarian action.
What a nice push to get all of the political prisoners out of detention in Burma! Dialogue, exchange of views, participatory approach and mentoring will give positive influence to one own manifestation of change through oneself realization, the best way to avoid a change by coercion that come with high price for all of the citizens of Burma. That is what a good friend of Burma would do to get Burma out of its trauma of dictatorship. Zero political prisoners would be a good starter of restoration of people trust in the public service of Burmese government.
Burma should embrace the good will of the United State of America toward it, should it wants to have express service of restoration of democracy, a system that grantee the safety for all the citizens of Burma through fairness and the same set of rule to play by. Having political prisoners means sitting on a chair of unpredictable volcano where the fears over run all the positive momentum of change in Burma. The clock is ticking when the decision is everything of the fate of Burma depends on.
The Burmese Freedom Fighter
Christian missionaries first came to Burma with hospitals, and then schools followed where Christian lessons and prayers were compulsory. Now OIC comes with humanitarian aid, and to hand out humanitarian assistance they need two offices, one at Rangoon another Sittwe. Is it impossible for them to hand over the assistance to local NGOs or even Burmese government to hand out the food supplies, or any other relief materials? People are not naive nowadays and OIC should learn to honour other people's views and policies. Or else they become dictators.
If you are one of those that trust the Burmese government that willingly hindered aid from the international community during the Cyclone Nargis crisis for the sake of its political referendum, then you have some serious problems.
Oh, I didn't notice that the govenment has changed.. Sorry forget what I've said above!

Chew on It: Rizzo's on the Park
Rizzo's on the Park has called 17 W. Main St. in North East home since September 2012. It's decorated with tons of art and family photos, restored and refinished hardwood floors, and beautiful exposed brickwork. The building used to be a bank, so the intact vault serves as a private dining room and adds to the restaurant's unique quality.
Rizzo's has eight or so specialty pizzas listed in two sizes, small and large. Amanda and I found what we were looking for under the specialties -- a small half pepperoni and half cheese. We also tried a chicken bacon ranch pizza, based on our server's recommendation.
Fresh dough is made every day for pizza crust, sub rolls, calzones and garlic bread. The pizza crust was the shining star of dinner. The dough cooked up to perfection, filled with herbs that lent it a distinct flavor. It was crunchy on the outside and bottom, but chewy in the middle.
The half-pepperoni, half-cheese pizza used a traditional pizza sauce and had a delicious Italian taste. The cheese was salty, chewy and held the pizza together.
The chicken bacon ranch pizza is not one that Amanda and I would typically order. I am glad we did. The bacon added smokiness to everything, which I loved.

Yes!! I like Jim already! Someone who loves and can seriously talk about Ninja Turtles!
Or the "Hero Turtles". That's what the comic book was called in Britain (and most of the rest of Europe). From what I've been able to find on the web, "Ninja" was fine as long as it was just a comic book marketed to teens and adult nerds, but when the Saturday morning cartoon arrived, "Ninja" was considered too violent a word for the children that the cartoon was marketed for.
They had a problem with Michaelangelo, too. The cartoon had a bunch of edits because the censors also had a problem with his nunchaku. Leonardo's swords, Raphael's Sai, and Donatello's bo staff were fine. But Mikey *using* his nunchaku? Oh, they couldn't let the kids see that! So they edited every scene where Mikey starts swinging his weapon around, which caused a lot of continuity problems ("the kids won't notice"… trust me, I know a guy from London. He said when he was five years old, he definitely noticed.)
The toys and video games didn't censor the nunchaku. Apparently video games weren't considered important enough to bother censoring (not back then, anyway)… and you'd think that instead of picking on Mikey's nunchaku, they would've censored the swords or sai or sharp pointy objects designed to stick people with, right? In a bit of irony, in the recent Nickelodeon version, they DO censor the swords on several occasions.
I have no idea why the censors in the UK had such a vendetta for nunchaku. They censored Bruce Lee's "Enter the Dragon" in the same way… In the scene where Bruce infiltrates Han's underground base, he smacks the crap out of the guards and then grabs a pair of nunchakus. Bruce then does the iconic scene where he shows off his prowess with the nunchaku. The entire scene was cut by the BBC censors, so in the UK, Bruce went from beating up guards, to suddenly running into a trap in the next scene. But they had no problem at all with the scene where Bruce gets cut with Han's metal claw.
It's probably a good thing I don't work in the censorship business, because if I did, plenty of things would get released that kids shouldn't see. In my mind, it's the parents' responsibility to monitor what their kids watch on TV and play as video games; it shouldn't be up to a group of people sitting around a table deciding what's appropriate and what isn't. I know that when I'm a parent (someday), I'll be keeping an eye on what my kids watch, and if I think it's not good for them to watch, then they won't watch it. I'm not going to let some dumbass in a suit decide what's good for my child to watch, because if it was up to them, my children would probably only watch something like Barney for the rest of their lives. (Now THERE'S a show that can turn a child into a psychopath.)
I have to wonder (hopefully not spoiling any new readers here), how did Merial and Jim (and Greg too) figure each other's secrets after meeting each other?
Probably just showed each other their medallions. Nobody normal or unturned would understand the significance of Merial's little nautilus necklace.
Maybe just as a reference to the Little Mermaid?

Trust issues (remix) Lyrics[Hook: Justin Bieber]
All I care about is money and the city that I'm from
I'm a sing until I feel it, I'm a go until it's done
And I don't mean to say wassup and my excuse is that I'm young
And I'm only getting older, somebody shoulda told you
I'm on one, you know, I'm on one
I said I'm on one, you know, I'm on one
Two white cups and I got that drink could be purple could
Be pink depending on how you mix that ish money that
We got, never get that ish, cause I'm on one, you know I'm one one
You know what I like
Oh yeah, oh yeah [x2]
[Justin Bieber:]
You just need to listen, teach you how to fix it
Cause you're cause I don't trust these women
I don't trust these women, they might catch me slipping
So, you're the only one cause I don't trust these women
They might catch me slipping and put in something different
So you're the only one cause I don't trust these bitches
I don't trust these bitches, they might catch me simping
So you're the only one
Trust issues
Drizzy Drake, check me out
Coming live from the mothafucking North Side
Kick game, run game, run it real good
But never ever have my bitches sitting courtside
Same nigga that you knew way back when
You acting like it's somebody you don't know
Tell me, how the fuck we supposed to stay friends
When you got a bunch of feelings that you don't show?
I could tell, I could tell, I could tell
Certain people don't like me no more
New shit don't excite me no more
Guess that they don't really make em like me no more
You can look me in my eyes and see I ain't myself
Cause if y'all what I created then I hate myself
But still, let them girls in and tell them all
Leave their cell phones on the table where we see them
I'm all day with it man, A.M to the P.M
Niggas hating, I just wish that they would say it when they see him
[Justin Bieber:]
That's that ish that drives me crazy
And that's all I've been getting lately
And it's probably why I'm scared to put the time in
Women want to fuck like they're me and I'm them
Looking for some things and I think that I can find them in you

For Howard and Utley, it marked their first All-Star selections. Howard considers it one of the top three moments in his baseball life.
Utley was voted a starter, while Howard and Gordon were selected via player ballots to the NL squad. Utley finished nearly 200,000 votes ahead of Houston's Craig Biggio in fan voting, but he would have been making his All-Star debut regardless of fan voting. He won the player vote by a huge margin (461-255) over Florida's Dan Uggla.
"I'm excited for all of us," Utley said. "My first priority is to have a good season, and if you do, then you should have a good shot to be in the All-Star Game."
"It's up there," said Howard, who also will take part in the Home Run Derby. "It has to be in the top three. I don't know what the other two are yet."
Asked if his 2005 Rookie of the Year award might be there, Howard said, "Umm ... it's a tie."
Howard is leading the majors with 28 homer after hitting a second-deck bomb to left field off Blue Jays right-hander A.J. Burnett on Sunday. He also ranks near the top in RBIs (69) and slugging percentage (.612). Although he finished a distant sixth to Albert Pujols in fan voting, Howard finished second to Pujols in player voting - ahead of the likes of Nomar Garciaparra, Lance Berkman and Carlos Delgado - to earn his spot.
Utley also homered Sunday, his 16th, and raised his average to .300. Despite moving to the number two hole in the batting order for much of the past two months, Utley has 49 RBIs to go along with 66 runs, second-most in the NL.
Gordon defied those who thought his age (38) and time away from closing made him a risky replacement for Billy Wagner. Gordon has converted 21 of 22 save opportunities, has a 2.11 ERA and 41 strikeouts in 34 innings. He also received the most player votes at his position, his 214 tallies putting him well ahead of Milwaukee's Derrick Turnbow (164) and San Diego's Trevor Hoffmann (159).
It was Gordon's third All-Star selection. Although he appreciated the honor, the Phillies' poor play of late seemed to temper his enthusiasm.
"I wish we were playing a lot better," Gordon said. "It's definitely an honor, and I'm happy for our guys. If we were playing better we'd have more guys there who deserve it.
"The important thing is winning ballgames and getting on the right track. Wins and losses are the most important thing. I've been to All-Star Games, but I've never won a World Series, so that's what I want to get."
Bobby Abreu, the reigning, record-setting champion of the All-Star Home Run Derby, was one of five players placed on the "Final Vote" All-Star ballot, where fans vote the last member of each league's team onto the squad. Abreu joins Garciaparra and three pitchers - Mets closer and former Phillie Billy Wagner, Padres RHP Chris Young and Brewers LHP Chris Capuano - on the NL ballot.
Prior to that announcement, Abreu, who only has eight homers this season, expressed doubt that he would defend his Home Run Derby title if he were asked to do so.

Solutions for Chapter 21.4
Proving the Lemma 21.4
The Lemma 21.4 can be proved by using UNION, MAKE-SET and FIND-SET, and performing induction on a number of operations.
The following are the pseudocodes for the above operations:
// creating a set
//find the parent node of node x
//set rank for x
Here, rank is ceiling value of the height of x. Whenever MAKE-SET creates a singleton set (set having only one element), the rank of the tree is set to 0.
// UNION operation in which element of both the sets store in to first set
UNION(x, y)
// performing link operation using the find set operation for both the sets
1. LINK (FIND-SET(x), FIND-SET(y))
// performing link in between the set element according to their rank
LINK(x, y)
//join the roots passed as argument
1. if
//make the node xy's parent
//make y x's parent
1. else
//check if both of them have equal rank
4. if
// now rank of the element of set y is incremented by 1
UNION method takes two sets as parameters and by linking these two sets, it forms a new set (tree). UNION makes the new tree as follows:
1. If the ranks of the roots are unequal: The element which has the higher rank will be the parent of another; however, there would be no change in the ranks themselves.
2. If the ranks of the roots are equal: Then any of them is chosen as the parent and its rank is incremented.
// searching for the set
1. if
2. = FIND-SET(x, p)
3. return
The procedure of FIND-SET works as follows:
• FIND-SET recursively calls itself to find the root, in line 2.
• When the x equals to x.p, in the line 3, the root is returned.
Applying Induction on number of operations:
Consider the number of operations as n.
Step 1 (base case): when n = 1(single operation)
When MAKE-FIRST is called on x, it creates a tree with single element x as root and sets the rank as 0. Similarly, when MAKE-FIRST is called on y, it creates a tree with y as root and sets rank of the tree as 0. When the single UNION operation is applied on these two sets, it results in a new tree(set) with either x or y as the root. Then the tree contains x and y only.
If x is the root of the new tree, then the rank of x is 1 and the rank of y is 0.
Similarly, if y is the root of the new tree, then the rank of y is 1 and the rank of x is 0.
Step 2 (inductive hypothesis): For n=k (k operations)
When k operations are performed on k nodes, the root node in the resultant tree has the rank k-1and remaining node has the rank less than k-1.
Step 3: when n = k + 1
It is assumed that after k number of operations, the given lemma is true. Now, it is required to show that the given tree is true for k+1th operations.
From the inductive hypothesis, after applying k operations on k elements, a tree is obtained and its root (yk) has the rank at most k-1.
Now consider a tree that contains only one node (xk). Apply one more UNION operation (k+1th operation).
The LINK procedure would either make the node xk the parent of or vice versa. That is, the rank of the xk becomes k or the rank of the is increased by 1(that is, k).
In other words, the rank of the remaining nodes in the tree is less than k.
From the above steps, it is clear that the rank of the root is changes for each operation and the rank of the remaining nodes is less than the rank of the root.
Hence, the value of increases monotonically over time.

An early morning view of the MS Balmoral as it manouevres into position prior to berthing at CT2 (Cruise Terminal 2) on the Admiralty Pier of the Western Docks.
The bow of the Balmoral is pointing towards the open waters of the Straits of Dover and the English Channel through Dover Harbour's Western Entrance (bounded by the Admiralty Pier behind the ship and the out-of-shot Southern Breakwater further to the left).
This Dover Harbour photo was taken at 6.02 am on Monday, 26th of July 2010, from the lighthouse end of the Prince of Wales Pier.
The Balmoral has arrived from Honfleur (France) at the end of the 16-night "French Connection" cruise. Later in the day, the ship left Dover at the start of a 12-night round-trip "Beauty of the North" cruise with the following itinerary: Warnemunde (Warnemünde, Germany), Ronne (Rønne, Denmark), Gdynia (Poland), St Petersburg (Russia), Tallinn (Estonia), and Copenhagen (Denmark).

Abridged extract from History of the MS Balmoral (1):
The vessel was built by Meyer Werft of Papenburg, Germany in 1988, for service with Royal Cruise Line as the Crown Odyssey. In 1989, Royal Cruise Line was sold to Norwegian Cruise Line, which continued operation of the company, along with the Crown Odyssey until 1996. A reorganization of all of the fleets owned by Norwegian Cruise Line saw Crown Odyssey enter service with NCL's main fleet, and it was renamed Norwegian Crown.
Following the purchase of Orient Lines by NCL in April, 2000, Norwegian Crown was transferred, regaining her original name, Crown Odyssey, in the process.
In September, 2003, Crown Odyssey was refurbished and returned to the NCL fleet, again with the name Norwegian Crown.
On May 25, 2006 - NCL Corporation announced that its parent company, Star Cruises, had agreed to sell Norwegian Crown to Fred Olsen Cruise Lines effective August 2006. Star Cruises concurrently chartered the vessel back from Fred. Olsen and NCL continued her deployment through to November 2007... ...Her last NCL cruise was on October 28, 2007.
During a January 21, 2009 cruise the ship sailed into rough weather in the Bay of Biscay smashing through 50 ft waves & 60 mph winds. Two of the passengers were sent to a hospital in La Coruna, Spain for serious injuries.

Let's face it — dogs aren't picky. A week-old, half-molded burger from behind that Dumpster in the alley? That's like canine crack cocaine. But good luck finding a veterinarian who endorses that kind of indulgence. Today's doggies get only the best — a fact that's hard to deny given the $62.5 billion the American Pets Products Association projects will be spent on creature comforts in the U.S. this year.

The Greeks Gourmet is expanding with a new location in the former Bojangles property at 4015 Market St. The new spot, which features a drive through, will be dubbed The Greeks Express. Yanni Papanikolaou, whose family operates the original downtown location and a newly opened Jacksonville restaurant, said the latest entry to the family's chain of eateries will offer multiple types of gyro, shawarma and falafel in addition to several European-style sandwiches. Papanikolaou said renovations would begin next month with… Read More »

Antojitos Wilmington, a new shop at 800 Shipyard Blvd. #17, specializes in the drink, which can kind of be compared to Mexico's counter to the American smoothie craze. Basically, it goes like this: Blend fresh mango with ice. Douse the interior of a plastic cup with Chamoy, a type of salty, sweet and spicy… Read More »

Billy Ray's Family Restaurant at 2206 Carolina Beach Road has closed. Owners Doug and Tammy Turley purchased the restaurant, then dubbed Shreiner's, in 2013. The two rebranded the business in honor of Tammy Turley's father, Billy Ray Gurganious, a longtime area little league baseball coach. The restaurant later added barbecue with ribs that won accolades at the Port City RibFest in 2015.
For the adventurous imbibers, the ABC store at 17th and Castle Street is currently home to about 10 bottles of Velho Barreiro cachaca. The distinctively Brazilian spirit wound up in town as the result of a special order for a bar in Raleigh that never collected the goods. Their loss is our gain. But get it while you can, because it's unlikely to be a regular item on the shelf. 1 liter bottles run $13.50. So mix a caipirinha and… Read More »

Roberta Campani is probably best remembered by area foodies as the culinary force behind the since-shuttered La Gemma Fine Italian Pastries. Her exquisitely-crafted confections won accolades for years before she sold the business and moved with her family to Italy.

In the drive to recapture sales from food-service operators, supermarket delis are appropriating their competitors' most obvious and effective marketing tool -- the menu. Both retailers and marketing consultants said that strategy is sound. But in practice, the menus being churned out by many supermarkets have not been hitting their targets. The major problem is focus. Experts said retailers have to learn how to aim their efforts like a restaurateur instead of a like a grocer. Retailers ...

Is Matt Kemp or Ryan Braun the NL MVP? What about the battle for NL Cy Young supremacy between Roy Halladay, Clayton Kershaw and Cliff Lee?
While almost all of the divisional races have already been decided before the playoffs start in October, the year-end awards in Major League Baseball are anything but a done deal.
The AL/NL MVP races are the closest they've been in recent memory, and the NL Cy Young and Rookie of the Year honors will probably go down to the last week in September before anything is decided.
With so much uncertainty, how could someone ever predict the winners?
Well I will try.
Here are my end-of-year award predictions for the 2011 season.

Home-grown tomatoes always taste so much better than shop-bought ones and you'll find a great range of tomato seeds in our range. They're relatively easy to grow and can be started off in a greenhouse or on a sunny windowsill and planted out when they're well grown and there is no more risk of frost. Try the supersweet Sungold - with non-stop cropping and juicy, bite-sized, orange fruits, you'll love them!For growing tips take a look at our How to grow tomatoes guide.
Tomato 'Black Opal'
Solanum lycopersicum L.New for 2016, the dark fruits of Tomato Black Opal are already proving a firm favourite in independent taste tests. This unique cross combines the unusual dark skin and health benefits of Black Cherry with the high sugar content of our red cherry type Sweet Aperitif. Sweeter than both Black Cherry and Chocolate Cherry, but retaining the high levels of anthocyanins and lycopene, this tasty new cherry tomato is the perfect healthy sweet treat for school lunchboxes, snack time, dinner time... anytime! Train as a cordon for heavy crops across the season whether you grow in the greenhouse or out in the garden. Height: 200cm (79"). Spread: 50cm (20"). More info

Tomato 'Akron' F1 Hybrid - RHS endorsed vegetable seeds
Solanum lycopersicum L.This heavy weight tomato has performed superbly in RHS Wisley growing trials, coming out tops against 31 other varieties. We were amazed at the heavy crops at the end of the trial period. Each plant produced an average of 69 fruits under greenhouse conditions, comparable in size to the fruits of Money maker - each weighing an average 109g (3¾ oz). But the plants didn't stop there! The trials officially ended in September, but the Tomato Akron plants just kept on cropping in the warmth of the Wisley polytunnel well into late autumn. For the longest cropping season from your greenhouse tomatoes look no further than Akron F1, you'll be as surprised as we were by these vigorous healthy tomato plants. The season will be shorter, but this cordon variety will also crop well out in the garden in a sunny sheltered spot. Height: 200cm (79"). Spread: 50cm (20").

Historical Traveler Reviews Minnewaska Lodge Gardiner
Love it more and more
We've stayed here 5 times so far - in both summer and winter. We've fallen in love with the lodge as much as we've fallen in love with the New Paltz area, and for similar reasons. The Lodge abutts beautiful mountains, it's comfortable/cozy with an outdoors feel in design and materials, and the people (other lodgers and the staff) are friendly. The staff is also helpful, and we love the bowls of apples and afternoon cookies, as well as the more than ample Continental breakfasts (it's midway between Continental and a full offering). Actually, it's too good. I find it hard to stop myself from overeating. I agree with the dissenting reviews that walls could be more sound-proof, but it has yet to be a problem. I also agree that the few (two?) rooms adjacent to the close-by small parking lot are initially a dissapointment, but even when we had one of these rooms, it's really not a problem - we're out during the day, and we sleep with the curtains closed to keep the light out. The common areas (one indoor, one out) are large and comfortable. We even like just hanging out there talking, reading, playing games, and meeting others. There's also an exercise room with equipment, but we've yet to use it... We've so enjoyed our stays at the Lodge we have sent 5 other couples here in just the year since we discovered it. They have all thanked us! PS: It's a short easy drive from New Paltz, and on the way to the Minnewaska State Park Preserve.
Great Hospitality
Minnewaska Lodge is clean and beautiful. This year we stayed in the suite and particularly liked it - we will request it next year.The staff was very helpful and pleasant - they let us check in early which was greatly appreciated after a long trip. Breakfast was yummy! We'll be back next year.
Solid in Many Ways
We've stayed at Minnewaska Lodge the last two years, meeting friends from NJ (New Paltz somewhat midway), and they've referred many happy customers, as well. It's a well maintained, very tastefully designed and decorated place, with attentive management and attention to detail. When I asked the owner about his biggest surprise about owning an inn (a relatively new career, after law), he said "having to fix everything right away." And it's clear that they do. The place looks both classic and brand new. Plus, the setting is gorgeous, just close enough to the Gunks and New Paltz, and just far enough away from civilization. I did notice the noise from another room, which was in the normal range (no party) and concur they don't have the most solid walls, but it's in no way for me something to knock down the rating from excellent. There has been nothing to dissuade anyone in our discerning group to reconsider that this will continue as our "same time, next year" first resort.
Loved Minnewaska Lodge
My husband and I stayed at Minnewaska Lodge for the last three summers. It's a wonderful retreat for us when we go to visit our son..
The people that work there are the best! The scenery is magnificent. We are looking forward to going there again.
Perfect retreat.
I have been to Minnewaska Lodge several times since it opened - usually for a quick get away, but last time for a few days midweek. The rooms are tastefully furnished but not frilly - always very clean. Nice mission furniture. There is great hiking/biking and swimming at Minnewaska State Park and a lot of good places to eat nearby. Our last trip we went up to Rhinebeck which was only about a half hour and had a great dinner and enjoyed a movie and walking around town. The views of the cliff are wonderful - like another world. Midweek is great - less expensive and nothing was crowded. Great escape!
Overrated - problems
I have to disagree with the previous positive reviews. The positive -- The hotel is in a very scenic location -- but make sure you get a room facing the spectalular backdrop of the the Catskill mountain, rather than the parking lot.
The negative - the hotel is understaffed and unfriendly. Second, I must agree with the noise issue mentioned by a previous reviewer. I was up until about 2 a.m. due to the noise generated by a group staying in an adjacent room. I dont think they were particularly loud, so I think this hotel suffers from a flaw many hotels built in the last 10 years or so do, namely, thin and shoddy construction with no noise insulation. So, if you have any sensitivity to noise, hope that you luck out and have quiet visitors nearby or an empty room. I went to the Lodge to escape the noise and craziness of the city, not to be reminded of it - and the Lodge failed on that basis.
Minnewaska Lodge is great weekend retreat
I must disagree with the negative reviews I just read. My experience at M.L. was top notch. The staff was very helpful, the setting was specatular and the breakfast was just want we wanted. We did not hear any extraordinary loud noises from the hotel. We wanted a weekend getaway, didn't want to spend Mohonk prices and wanted to be close to all the action. The Lodge delivered. It's not cheap, but considering the area, I thought it was reasonable. I don't like B&B's. I don't want to feel like I am in someone's house. I want the relative anonimity of a hotel, but I don't want some corporate hole like Super 8. That is why the Lodge was ideal for our needs.
For my time and money, Minnewaska Lodge was everything my wife and I wanted for a great weekend. I will definetely go back there!
Works for Us
Minnewasaka Lodge is the perfect retreat for me and my husband. While I enjoy the magnificent view and reading on the deck for hours, my husband is still connected and plugs into the hi-speed internet access as soon as we arrive. Each time we stay at the Lodge (3, so far!) we walk in the woods by day and eat in fabulous restaurants at night --all just moments from what has become our own mountain retreat. No complaints here--we plan to return this summer!
Wonderful lodge!
I stayed at Minnewaska Lodge with my family several times since they oppend a couple of years ago and we have always had a wonderful time. The rooms are great, with comfortable king size beds, large TV's, fabulous views, cathedral ceiling and a deck. The lodge is a real gem for those who appreciate staying off the beaten track in a hotel with real character and charm.
Breakfast was also quite ample and wholesome - we loved the homemade granola and apple strudel! We also appreciated the free high speed internet access.
We have always found the staff to be very friendly and attentive. The nearby Minnewaska State Park is magnificent - we especially loved moutain biking to Lake Awosting for a swim in crystal clear water.
I disagree with complaints of the previous poster(s) (sounds like one person making two posts to me) - the lodge may not as quiet as a big hotel - because it is more like staying in a bed and breakfast or someone's home - generally other guests are considerate and we've never had a significant noise problem.
We especially loved the homemade cookies in the afternoon after a long day hiking. hmmm
Terrible weekend
My girlfriend and I stayed at the Minnewaska Lodge over a recent weekend for a quick (and hopefully quiet) getaway from Manhattan. We were, to say the least, highly dissapointed in the Lodge. While the surroundings were beautiful (including the nearby Catskill Mts), the Minnewaska Lodge left us feeling that we hadn't had the nice, quiet weekend we sought away from Manhattan. Two main complaints: (1) the Lodge is so poorly constructed that you can hear every footstep, every conversation, every sneeze, of any adjoining room in the Lodge (and we were in a corner room). (2) I booked a room facing the mountains with a King size bed and was instead given a room with two small beds facing the parking lot. When we complained, we received a small discount, an explanation that no other room was available all weekend and significant attitude from the hotel manager. This was inexcusable. The free breakfast was mediocre at best. While the nearby Mohonk Mt Lodge is overpriced and the food is sub-par, look for some alternative -- anything other than the Minnewaska Lodge -- unless you don't value privacy, quiet surroundings, and assurances that the room you booked is the room you will be checked into.

We are inviting you to participate in the 12th annual Prague Conference on Political Economy (PCPE). PCPE is an international and interdisciplinary gathering of scholars and supporters (not only) of the Austrian School of Economics and political economy of freedom. During two days of the conference (Friday afternoon and Saturday), participants will have an opportunity to participate in lectures and debates focusing on economics, political science, history, philosophy and other humanities, and to discuss these issues with leading theorists in the field, both from Europe and overseas. We expect more than 100 people attending annual lectures and over 30 scholars presenting their papers.
PCPE 2016 is organized by CEVRO Institute [school of legal and social studies] in partnership with Liberalni Institut, Mises Institut CZ&SK, The Faculty of Social and Economic Studies, J. E. Purkyne University, European Students for Liberty and the media partner Parlamentni listy.
This conference is an attempt to resurrect the tradition of Austrian economics- and liberty-oriented thinking that thrived in central Europe at the beginning of the 20th century, but sadly disappeared thereafter. By establishing an annual forum for scholars and students to meet and exchange ideas we hope to build a solid institutional basis for the advancement of liberty-oriented research programs.
The Conference takes place in the quaint and newly reconstructed building of the CEVRO Institute [school of legal and social studies] in the heart of Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic.
As the president of the conference, I believe that the conference will keep up the good spirit of previous years. We will do our best to succeed in making the 2016 conference at least as stimulating and useful as the past ones. We also believe that your participation will make the conference an even greater success.
We hope you will join us!
prof. Josef Sima, Ph.D., president of the CEVRO Institute (firstname.lastname@example.com)
Send abstracts of your papers to firstname.lastname@example.com. Upon acceptance, you will be instructed to pay the conference fee. (A list of preliminary sessions and general schedule available here.)
Pre-conference events on Thursday and Friday at the CEVRO Institute:
- Meeting of Libertarians, April 21, 6:00pm - 23:00pm (a semi-annual meeting of free-marketeers; we are expecting some 100+ participants who will talk libertarianism over beer. PCPE speakers will be around.).
- Austrian Economics Meeting Europe, April 21-22 (details about AEME on their website)

Anonymous surfing with Java Anonymous Proxy
Many Websites log IP addresses and access times to identify users. If you don't want to wind up as data in someone's market research, the Java Anonymous Proxy will keep your surfing secret.
Unless you happen to be a VIP, you can drop into a baker's shop anywhere but in your own home town and pay cash for a loaf of bread without revealing your personal data. Nobody will record the way you move or attempt to discover your behavior patterns. In day-to-day life, anonymity is the rule. In contrast, the Internet allows seamless logging of visitor traffic on websites. This continuous data collection allows for unique visitor identification; all it takes to identify a user is a short phone call to your provider, who is easily identified via a whois entry, to get your personal data. Governments have passed laws to prevent the most extreme misappropriation of personal data, but Internet users with static IP addresses are still easily identified on the web through a simple whois request.

Letting Go: Morrie's Reflections on Living While Dying
Walker, 1996 - Social Science - 127 pages
Four years ago, at the age of 75, former sociology professor Morrie Schwartz learned he had Lou Gehrig's Disease: incurable, and progressively disabling. Rather than withdrawing, Morrie chose to live as fully as possible in the time he had left, and embarked on his greatest teaching adventure sharing his evolving knowledge of living and dying.
Morrie's willingness to talk about his illness made him an inspiration. In 1995 Nightline ran three interviews in which Ted Koppel spoke to Morrie about life, death and the disease that was afflicting his body. In "Letting Go, " Morrie combined inspiring lessons with practical advice to help those who have chronic or terminal sickness and to help those close to them maintain healthy emotions and loving relationships. As life-affirming as it is life-releasing, "Letting Go" will have a profound effect on generations of readers.
