Skip to comments.Canada 'to reclaim Arctic waters' ( Hope for Global Warming to remove ICE)

Canada has announced plans for six naval patrol vessels and a deep-water port in the north to assert its claim to territorial waters in the Arctic.
Other countries, including the US, say the waters are international territory.
The $3bn (£1.5bn) announcement at Canada's Pacific naval base comes in part to fulfil an election promise.
Ottawa also sees economic potential in protecting its claim to the Arctic, as the area is thought to be rich in natural resources.
Since the end of the Cold War, Canada's modest military and coast guard have only rarely patrolled its northern coast line. Now Prime Minister Stephen Harper says the time has come to re-assert Canada's claim to the north.
At a dockside ceremony complete with brass bands, fluttering flags and sharp white uniforms, the prime minister promised to build at least six new patrol ships with ice-breaking hulls to extend his country's presence into the Arctic Ocean.
That presence, Ottawa hopes, will remind other countries - including the US - of Canada's claim to the waters off its northern coast.
The claim could also have serious economic implications. Natural resources including oil, gas and diamonds are thought to lurk - perhaps in abundance - under the Arctic ice.
And then there is the North-West Passage - the northern shipping route between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans that European explorers sought for centuries.
With a warming climate, the route may just become viable and lucrative.
A deciding factor in the territorial disputes may be whether Canadians ever actually venture into the areas in question. And so the time has come, Ottawa says, to make sure that they do.
Lawrence Solomon's "The Deniers" (a series of articles on the view of scientists who have been labelled "Global Warming Deniers"):
Other References:
So I guess all we have to do is pump out the artic ocean and we can drill for oil and mine for diamonds.(Kidding)
This is good. Our neighbors to the north are going to assert themselves again instead of being a doormat.
I wonder how long until the polar bears convert to Islam and declare Jihad on us?
Putin did the exact same thing but with a chunk of land in the Arctic. When Russia goes after resources it was labelled "fascism" or "imprerialism", but when a Western nation does the same thing it's OK. Don't get me wrong, I'm no Russophile nor do I have an ounce of trust for Putin, but I don't see why there's anything wrong with grabbing a chunk of uninhabited land and using the resources. It's actually a smart move, and the US should be doing the same. Russia's done it, Canada's done it, we better get up there before it's all taken.
Critics are in a quandary. Before the last election, Liberals mocked Harper for promising icebreakers — saying there was no reason for them.
Now, they're criticizing the change to lighter ships, that will only work in summer ice. (They would have criticized heavier ice breakers as being wasteful.)
Their quandary is: if there is global warming, then all we need is the light ice breakers. All of Harper's critics have been harping on the threat of global warming so much; that they can't pretend they don't believe that light ice breakers will be sufficient for year-around use.
We already are against the Danes with Ellesmere Island...
The Inuit may have something to say about the resources though, they own a huge chunk of land up there
I say just annex Canada and end the discussion.
We can make it a commonwealth loke Puerto Rico and allow all it to be used as a tourist attraction.. Say hello to America's future under the democrats, no military, no timely health-care, but plenty of drugs, immigrants, and rainbow multiculturalism.
God love you! When you're right, you're right! And there they go spending billions (who knew they even HAD billions?) on asserting themselves in the arctic when the rest of us are fighting terror. It's like the man said: canada will give you any aid short of help.
Global Warming really might reduce the ice in the north. After all, it did it in Leif Erikssons day.
It's not Anthropogenic Global Warming though, that's the important point.
Those sneaky bastards! Bomb Canada!
We'll be up there with Coast Guard Icebreakers when these poor schmucks freeze themselves in some November, then the Canadian press will lambaste us for causing the warming that got them stuck in the first place. We'll shrug our shoulders and go on, another good deed by Americans aka the evil ones goes unappreciated.
And the Canadian military fighting and dying in Afghanistan are what?
You pompous ass!
No one disputes that the Canadians are fighting and dying in Afghanistan; however, the use of money for this arctic stuff right now makes no sense. Better to spend it on better vehicles, gear, etc., for the troops.
FYI..ping the list please..sounds like this is long overdue..The PM is doing a superb job...and if anyone can add any background info on this issue, or some liknks..please do so..
That is like saying that you shouldn't put in a lawn around your house, but you should spend the money on a new roof. But what if you can afford a new roof, AND a new lawn? I'm sure Canada has enough economic resources to build a few ice breakers and staff them with some sailors without it breaking them. And anyway, the Canadians are probably quite qualified to decide how to spend their own money.
Never mind all that. The environazis will never let anyone touch all this pristine and unique ecological habitat that harbors so many species vital to the survival of the planet to be polluted by the evil, vicious, cunning, baby eating BIG OIL COMPANIES and CORPORATIONS that intend to ravage the planet and starve the elderly.
Our new Conservative government is spending on things like that too, as you well know.
Now that the Liberanos have stopped stealing all the tax money, we have enough for both.
You did! Your own words disputed Canada's involvement in fighting terror.I quote you below. The rest of us are fighting terror and Canada doesn't give help to others. Your words
when the rest of us are fighting terror. Its like the man said: canada will give you any aid short of help.
The rest of us says Canada is not...a bold face lie in the face of Canadian men and woman dying to fight terrorism. NEXT > Canada is and has been spending to upgrade it military with new equipment ....AND we can invest in the defense and protection of OUR Arctic north at the same time....AND we don't need your permission or blessing.....
Give it your best shot Canada but somehow I think your half dozen patrol boats are no match for the US Navy.
You did claim Canada wasn't fighting in the war on terror which is a flat out falsehood.
The Arctic Archapelago is Canadian territory. The waters around those islands in the high arctic are Canadian waters. Every nation has the right, and fundamental obligation in my opinion, to protect its territory. Just because you think Canada should drop enforcing sovereignty in the north like the U.S. has done in the south, does not mean Canada should or would. Most countries put their priorities in protect their borders and territory above engaging in overseas expeditions.
Canada is the only nation that asserts the NW Passage is in Canadian waters. The rest of the world views it as an international strait. As the ice continues to melt and more ships can make the passage saving thousands of miles, more countries will press the free and open seas issue. Canada will lose.
"I wonder how long until the polar bears convert to Islam and declare Jihad on us?"
Then, its time to arm the seals and walruses and let them fight it out with the polar bears!!!!
A lot of that water is within the 12 mile limit and certainly withoin the 200 mile limit. So it is fair to call them Canadian waters. To say otherwise would mean that the Chesapeake Bay, San Francisco Bay or even the channels between the Hawaiian Islands are not American waters and anyone can do as they please there. Could Cuba put an oil platform 1/2 mile off the coast of Miami or in the middle of Tampa Bay?
However, the right of free passage does apply to the NWP. If it does open up and allow shipping, who will police those waters? It's Canadian so Canada has an obligation, IMHO, to provide basic coast guard and search and rescue capabilities in the area. By asserting sovereignty, it prevents other nations from claiming territory and resources in the area.

Kaukauna puts Burlington's dreams of upset to rest
Madison — The Burlington wrestling team came up one upset short of advancing to its first WIAA Division 1 state team final.
Kaukauna (21-0) put an end to any upset dreams from the Demons (13-2) with a fast start in a 40-21 victory in the semifinals of the tournament Friday night at the UW Field House.
Kaukauna advanced to face No. 2-ranked Bay Port in the final. Bay Port defeated No. 3-ranked Merrill, 28-25, in the other semifinal.
It was a bittersweet end to the season for Burlington, which picked up its first state team tournament victory by upsetting No. 4-ranked Sauk Prairie, 33-32, in the quarterfinals.
"I think they are a very good team with a lot of depth," said Burlington coach Jade Gribble. "The biggest difference between them and us is they take a couple weeks off after the season and get right back to lifting and wrestling. We have to go put in a lot of work."
Kaukauna jumped out to a 19-0 lead by winning the first four matches of the dual that began at 285 pounds. Burlington could never catch up.
Burlington junior Ben Hornickle, a state qualifier a week ago, defeated Kaukauna senior Kolton Jansen, a second-place finisher, by a 4-0 decision at 126 pounds to stop Kaukauna's run.
But Kaukauna won nine of the 14 matches, including four decisions at 285, 145, 152 and 170 that were the key.
"We started out a little bit slow, but I'm proud of the kids," said Gribble. "We beat a good Sauk Prairie team. We've been 0-2 here before that. So I'm proud of the kids. We were beat up all year until conference when we got some guys back. I think we're pretty damn good when we're healthy."
Kaukauna advanced to the final for the second consecutive year. A year ago, the Ghosts lost to Wausau West, 28-27, in the final and Kaukauna coach Jeff Matczak was happy to get back in the championship.
"We're all excited," said Matczak, whose team has advanced to the final four times in 12 trips to the tournament but never won a title. "This is where we all wanted to be. It's the way it's supposed to be."
Kaukauna also ended the season of Menomonee Falls, 59-3, in the quarterfinals.
The Ghosts won 13 of 14 matches against Falls (15-4), and its coach, Jim McMahon, was impressed with the state's No. 1-ranked team.
"I think they have a hell of a team," said McMahon, whose team was making its second consecutive trip to the tournament. "I think we have a hell of a team, and they really took it to us."
Another area team in the quarterfinals, Mukwonago, also failed to advance. The Indians (22-7) lost to Merrill, 49-24, in their sixth trip to state. Mukwonago still seeks its first victory here.
Bay Port 28, Merrill 25: The dual was decided at 195 pounds when Bay Port junior Alec Ingold defeated Merrill senior Alex Klug, 7-4, giving the Pirates (25-5) the victory.
Ingold's victory pushed Bay Port's lead from 25-21 to 28-21, leaving Merrill (19-2) no chance with only one weight class remaining. It was the third time that Ingold has defeated Klug this year.
Bay Port advanced to the final for the first time in its second trip to state by winning eight of the 14 matches.
Bay Port defeated Stoughton (21-3), 42-21, in the quarterfinals to advance.

Sore throat and pain on swallowing
Q: It hurts when I swallow, and it feels like my throat is swollen.. what is the quick remedy overnight?
A: You may try warm saline gargles and Advil (Ibuprofen) to relieve pain. Avoid sweets for now and drink more of cold water. However, I think it is still worth checking out by a doctor to make sure you don't need antibiotics. If what you are having is strep throat, it also has long-term, serious complications. I hope this helps.

Algerian-born DJ Cheb I Sabbah mixes up heady Arabic and Indian sounds into a sitar, tabla and oud tinged groove that is proving popular across Europe and the USA. Sabbah avoids adding the hi-energy house music beats that so many contemporary DJs believe are necessary to make non-Western music forms palatable. Instead, he concentrates on creating a 'trance' groove that is in keeping with much of the music's original spiritual creation. Although Sabbah designs his music for Western dancers his sonic creations are supposed to evoke in the listeners a sense of oneness with the universe rather than simply the soundtrack to designer clubs and expensive restaurants.
Sabbah's sounds make for perfect chill-out music while also carrying a musicality that extends beyond the ambient clichés of the Buddha Bar world music lite remix compilations. Although he has only recently become known on the world music scene, Sabbah is in his fifties and claims to have begun DJing in Paris in the 1960s. By the late 1980s he had become a fixture on the San Francisco club scene where he created a series of world-music concerts called '1002 Nights' and, in 1994, produced The Majoon Traveler, in which he mixed the music of Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman with the Gnawa and Jilala music of North Africa.
Sabbah's family moved to France from Algeria in the early-1960s when the Algerian struggle for independence was underway. As Berbers of Jewish descent in a predominantly Muslim population, they had been issued French passports by the French colonial government and Sabbah draws on his culturally rich background to create music that is Oriental with Occidental flavours. Or, perhaps, the other way around.
Sabbah came to wider prominence with his recent CDs Shri Durga and Maha Maya on the Six Degrees label. Maha Maya is a remixed version of Shri Durga - the remixes were created by Sabbah and leading players in London 's Asian Underground scene (Trans-Global Underground, FunDaMental, etc.) The musicians he has assembled for his recent recordings include violinist K.Shivakumar and his niece, singer Radhika Rajiv. There's vedic chanting from P.T.Vijayaraghavan and zither playing by Pandit Ulhas Bapat ("Tum Bim Shyam"). Fusion maestro Bill Laswell plays bass. And ruling over it all is DJ Cheb I Sabbah, master mixer of cosmic Arabic-Indian sounds.

BBC Music interview
April, Blue Mountains, Australia
La Kahena is a breath taking album. The strong emotive voices of the Maghreb women in conjunction with their native music and the masterful beats of Cheb i Sabbah create a wonderful soundscape that no dancer could sit still to. Chebiji deserves an award for his excellent efforts.
Chou Chou, Paris, France
Original, inventive, timeless, interpretative, and simply divine. How can you describe his homage to long forgotten sounds of the past with a modern melange of fresh new beats and rhythms? They say truth is pure. So is his music. He deserves the award for his contribution, not just albums.
Terrance San Francisco
We have been blessed with Cheb here in the bay area live every week and may the world know how great his beats are. Bring it on!
Leela Mayi Ma ~~San Fransisco Bay
Divinly spinning sweetly mingling tribal sound vibrations new wave of the electronic world capturing the essence of cultural shakti. Merging tradition with innovation.

His music is a celebration of the humanity of North Africa and the Indian subcontinent.
Florence Cattin, Madrid, Spain
Excellent DJ and composer!!!!!!!!!!!! love his work and consider him a bit of the grand father of world music mixes, diffusion, compilations, etc. Definitely deserves the award!!!!!!
howard t. palmer-new york, NY
as a musician, mentor and freind for many, many years i can say w/absolute certantiy i have seen the growing and learning of a shaman, seer and visonary that is the d.j. known as cheb i sabbah. i have seen him open eyes, ears, hearts and minds as he has certainly mine. floors shake and quiver in the ecstacy of music from other spaces and places that he mixes into a brew that only a master mixoligist can do. that is cheb i sabbah!!! may he continue to give the real gift of music to all. peace/namaste/shalom, howard t. palmer
Grandmaster of the DJ scene- his finely tuned ear for perfection of tone and subtlety, blending and rhythms are unsurpassable. He knows a good sound from the ancient traditions when he hears one and does not rely on contrived synthetic sounds to create the magic that he does at every show. Never saw a gig where people didn't walk away feeling like they attained something even if it was just for the moment. Experience it for yourself. Peace and more
Robert Dakota Sedona, Arizona
Cheb i Sabbah has been an inspiration to me with his music since 97'. I used to dance to his music every Tuesday @ Ncikies when I lived in the Bay area. He is a gem that grows more pricelsss to world culture in each performance.
Rhonda - Laguna Beach, CA
I just saw Cheb Sabbah for the first time in Santa Monica, CA on Saturday, January 28, 2006 and his music is very "healing" and "spiritual"...Thank you!
Marine Akopyan Montebello Ca
I love CHEB I SABBAH I love his music mixes he throws a mean party its good to have someone play arabic hidi bangra mix i think hes just wonderfull and his mixes are ju beautiful My brother is a Dj so I know a grat music mix when i see it and wow my compliments to a great artist.
Mo, Ottawa, Canada
He's awesome! Can't wait to see him again @ The Mercury Lounge in 2 weeks!
i love him!!!!!
Jamila Allouane, Los Angeles
Cheb I Sabbah is a great artist. His last album La Kahena is a musical treasure! He deserves to win!
Hardeep, Delhi, India
Cheb i Sabbah's music goes beyond all borders and limits. We love him in Delhi for his bringing new remixes to old classics unlike any other DJ.
Suha - San Francisco
He has grown to a great level. We love the way he puts elements of music together on his own way. Love to see more of him in the San Francisco music scene.
Jacques, Honolulu
Cheb i Sabbah is an amazing worldtronica artist and dj. His Shri Durga - Maya Maya - Krishna Lila trilogy is a classic and has earned him worldwide acclaim from East to West. He is also a remarkable dj spinning the most amazing Arabic and South Asian sounds. I have had the pleasure of dancing to his extended sets of Asian Underground, bhangra, Arabic, and Turkish fusion at his homebase of San Francisco, and while on tour in Miami and Honolulu. La Kahena is an incredible album including collaborations with equally amazing artists such as Cheba Zahouania and B'Net Marrakech. Incidentally, the first remixes off the album are starting to get released by the label, among them a wicked bhangra-meets-gnaoua remix (by DJ Sandeep Kumar) of the Toura Toura cut featured on this page!
Sonia, Chandigarh
Cheb i Sabbah's music goes beyond borders and beliefs. A true rarity in today's world. He has elegantly been able to capture the essence of Arabic, African, and South Asian music like no other DJ. Give the award to the man who innovates, not imitates.
Kaarel - Tallinn, Estonia
Hare Krishna! Blessings!
Farasha San Francisco, CA
cheb i sabbah makes music and the air becomes clearer, life is more interesting and time stops long enough to break down and dance!!!!!! i love the respect he gives to the religious aspect of the song and yet twists it to be young and hip and flirty. songs stick in my head and make the mood a little smoother, how does it go....??? toura toura tour ka lila toura tou ra ka lila, you know the words.....
La Kahena rocks! It was awesome to hear his interpretation of Arabic music through new sounds and textures. Cheb i Sabbah deserves this award for his combined contribution to world music.
James - Kentish Town
La Kahena is a killer record! (Even my hard-core dance fan of a brother loves it.) I also love how Cheb i has been so restrained on how much he "does" to the raw recordings - he just gives it what it needs! I hope he wins this, he's been around for some time making great records...he deserves it.

Chart's topping short term, NLY offering looming,
sold all my AGNC positions in multiple accounts at 30.03 - 30.09.
Hope to buy again well below 30.00.
Congratulations to all who sold "too soon" yesterday!
After all it is not going to 32 as some implied.
It is going to see 28 or lower before it goes to 32 if ever.
As long as AGNC has shares authorized to sell, it won't hit 32 because they manage the stock price to stay within a range, and 32 is above the range. So, you're right about that, but doesn't everyone know that?
so your the reason why this stock keeps going up? shouldn't short buddy :)
I'm holding for a bit longer considering that the last two peaks were 30.50+.
I think we get at least another 20-30 cents, maybe even more.
I'd be cautious selling - there was clearly a long line of folks waiting to buy after last div. It hardly dropped at all.
Given the prospect for continued low short rates, we may simply be seeing AGNC shifting to a more reasonable risk/reward.
Wouldn't you be willing to hold this at 17% div? 16% div? That's $33-35 or so.
Furthermore, if Congress screws up on debt (99% odds, there!) we'll have an environment where short term rates are held low (rather desperately) while long rates pop - perhaps some are starting to price that in.
zamanaha I agree with you on dividend return being nice at lower than 18% even down to 15% would be a good return given the other returns out there now. I see only default as being the only enemy that AGNC has at this time. If that is avioded and I still believe it will be then the LT rates on interest will last for at least a year or longer so AGNC will be money in the bank for a while. Unlike some on this board I see a default as the dark crash of share price but the odds remain against such a default.
Both parties have go to know the damage that would do and smart guys are screaming into the ears of the leaders to not let it happen or else. Some of those are big money to the party guys and those get listen too. They will push it to the brink unfortunely making the market a scary place to be but so far it has not shown any fear at all has it?
I have a 1% trailing stop loss on AGNC so I am not counting pennies in my trading as hitting the top or bottom is not a skill I live by. Trend buying and selling is just fine with me. Do I think from here to next dividend date the stock will sell at a lower price than it is now? If history is followed it will but this type of run up is not found on my charts so maybe history is being written?
If you look at the macd you will see that this still has a little left to run. I would think somewhere around $30.50. Anytime you can make a profit it is a good thing. I sold calls on my shares for the AUG 30, though I sold a little to soon and only got .35. It will soon be time to buy puts for any correction that may happen.
Decided to sell my $28 calls at $2.30. I still think AGNC can go higher but a profit in the hand is more than one waiting to be done.
Congrats fellas. You all did much better than me, I sold way too soon.
Lesson learned. Next offering, buy 1000 shares, sell 500 the next day to lock in profit, hold the other 500 for 30.
not for a while,its going to 32.00
Congrats! I sold a bit too soon today but still am satisfied. Out at 29.07 a couple of weeks ago (after x-div), back in at 28.47 and out at 29.96 for nice cap gains and the upcoming div.
Me too at $30.10 - what do you think we should get back in at?
I will not buy until NLY comes with secondary any day, then see how AGNC will behave.
Hope to buy for around 29, just wait and see.
Next run to 30 or more instead of selling I am just going to sell calls then buy them back after another swing down.
See how it works, that way it is probably possible to get 30% or more annual gain with dividends.
But I am cautious, since I got in REITS game kind of late.
Really depends how long interest rates will remain low, which is connected to economy which will stink for at least few years.
The worst for Europe and rest of the world is still to come.
Most of the time $30 area I get out looking for small breaks to trade in from long side. This time however I am holding tight my 10K shares $28.27 cost until I get a feeling it's top out for a while. I am sure it's going to get to $31+ before the Ex Date. My reasoning to hold is I am also watching the strong early runs that IVR, HTS, NLY are making and seems to me a very strong up trend that has not given up to profit taking (yet). I don't see the day traders rushing in at the close to cover either. So with a strong up trend I am going to go with the flow until I start seeing sell offs at the close. I have 8k of IVR also in the mix. So far it's been on heck of a ride in only two weeks. Sure hate to make a pig out of myself. Like you I keep thinking we got over two months to Ex Date and seems early for such a run but maybe we moving up into a higher trading range. Love this stock!!!
>what do you think we should get back in at?
The next bottom.

Wife not liable in coach lawsuitJune 12,2014Wife not liable
in coach lawsuit
BENNINGTON A judge has ruled that a civil lawsuit filed in April against Leo Reynolds, a former Mount Anthony Union High School girls basketball coach, doesnt apply to his wife.
Reynolds, 67, formerly of Bennington, is facing four pending felony charges in Bennington criminal court of lewd and lascivious conduct with a child and one pending felony charge of aggravated sexual assault on a child younger than 13, for allegedly touching a 7-year-old girl in Bennington on several dates including on Christmas Eve of 2013.
The lawsuit, filed on behalf of the girls parents, sought to preserve the money from the sale of Reynolds home while the suit was still in court.
The home, however, belonged to Reynolds and his wife, Pamela Reynolds.
During a hearing in Bennington civil court in May, the attorney representing the family said he had no evidence that Pamela Reynolds knew about the alleged sexual abuse but asked Judge Katherine Hayes to preserve the money from the sale of the house in a trust while the lawsuit is active.
In a ruling dated May 23, Hayes said the facts known at this point do not demonstrate that (Pamela) Reynolds was even aware of the alleged sexual abuse. Under Vermont law, a person is not liable for a spouses illegal acts unless the person authorized or directed them.
Hayes said the law didnt allow the court to give the lawyer representing the family time to investigate whether Pamela Reynolds knew about the alleged assaults.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER After sitting on the Vermont Supreme Court for nearly 30 years, Justice John Dooley...

Historical Traveler Reviews Nerva Boutique Hotel Rome
What a find
Hotel Nerva was a gem of a place to stay. It was a stones throw from most of the top attractions and a wonderful place to be based. The staff were great and made the stay a pleasure. Everything was great and we will definitly be back!
Avoid: dishonest place
I phoned Hotel Nerva in late July and asked for a really quiet double room. The manager said there's no problem, I just should be sure to mention that in my reservation letter. I asked him to fax me a reservation form but he wasn't equipped for that. I had to formulate a custom letter. And so I reserved a room "tranquilla" (quiet), "dando sul cortile" (showing to the inner court), "in un alto piano se possible" (in an upper level, if possible"), equipped with "letto matrimoniale" ("matrimonial", i.e. double bed).
They signed and confirmed my reservation. One day before arrival I called the hotel, asking for the best way to come from the airport to the hotel. I'm mentioning that because the manager would have had a possibility to mention room problems. However, he didn't.
When we arrived August 26th, in the evening, the "concierge" had our reservation letter in hand and gave us our key. The room in the 1st floor, but I couldn't complain. After all, I had written "upper level if possible".
But I did complain when I realized that:
- our "double bed" were two singles moved next to each other
- our room was directly opposite to the elevater which opened with a very loud DINGADINGADING, therefore not quiet at all
- the window was a window to the street, not to the court
I pointed out those facts to the concierge and thought this must be a mistake. "Yes, yes, I know, I thought you would complain, but my boss said that I shall give you this room." I wanted to speak to the boss. He said he wasn't available.
I asked for another room. He said he hasn't any. My girlfriend and I were quite at a loss, 10 pm in Rome without hotel, but we decided that's too much.
I went to the concierge once more and told him we were leaving now. Suddleny, the unavailable boss was on the phone. He told the concierge not to let us leave. The concierge said that he wouldn't give us our passports. I complained that he cannot offer the room we have reservered. Therefore, he has no right to keep us here or to withhold our passports. Still he wouldn't give us back our passports.
I said I would contact the police immediately. The concierge phoned his boss once more and finally gave us our passports back. But the threatened us that he would charge my credit card. I explicitly forbade that; after all, my reservation letter was quite clear on the type of room we wanted AND this letter did not allow for charging the card without further authorization.
We left and spent a wonderful 8 days in Rome in a magnificient nearby hotel.
When we came home, there was an unpleasant surprise: In fact, Hotel Nerva had charged my card so I had to go through all the hassle of disputing the money.
The Hotel Nerva is quite simply, the best find in all of Rome. You could pay alot more for a hotel (like the Forum around the corner), but you will not find any better. The rooms are large by European standards and immaculate. The decore is elegant, warm and soothing. The breakfast is delicious, the best cappucino in all of Italy! The entire staff were so warm and friendly..the best feature of all. The restarant recommendations were outstanding, and all were close by. The location is close to the metro and all sites are within walking distance. We can't wait to return!
'benissimo' Hotel
We found the Hotel Nerva walking next to the Roman Forum, when Mr. Emilo offered to lodge our family of four for only 130 euro in one of his "special family rooms". He was unable to offer the loft suite but this room was perfect for us anyway. The room was large with a king size bed flanked on each side by a single bed near each wall for the kids-and the double glazed windows kept us in peaceful silence from the noise of the city. Our bathroom was full-size and had a marble shower which was sparkling clean. No view, except the ancient stone wall of the Roman Forum...but why pay 3 times the price to see over the wall from your bed when you can walk out the door and cross the street with a cappuccino and sit in the vista of the ruins! This is a family owned operation, we found the staff extremely friendly, the room large, clean and nicely decorated, plus a wonderfully prepared Italian breakfast with "real" service-Maria's coffee was "benissimo". The extra bonus here is the location, literally bordering all the major ancient Roman sites. Simply no other hotels in this price range are so close to ALL of the attractions. A four star hotel shares the same street facing the forum-but it has no family rooms and is at least twice the price. We took the Nerva's recommendations for dinner at the nearby restaurants; one really stood out: "The Imperiali" where we experienced the best meal and service in our 6 day Tuscany trip. The chef, owner and host were all very welcoming and gracious. The food just kept getting better with every new surprise that came from the kitchen. The prices were fantastic and you'd pay dearly in the USA for authentic food, service and atmosphere like this...and they treated our children well with treats and friendliness. Overall, a well run and friendly hotel-no posh luxuries, just modern, clean, and friendly service with all the amenities you could ask for... we'd stay again in a heartbeat.
Great little hotel.
Just returned from a three week trip to Italy. Stayed at the Nerva for 4 nights at the beginning of October. The Nerva is in a great location just a few minutes' walk from the Piazza Venezia (Victor Emmanuelle II monument) just behind the ancient ruins of the old Roman market on a quiet side street. Emelio the owner, his brother and staff were very friendly and hospitable. They helped with museum reservations at the Borghese and provided some excellent restaurant recommendations in the neighborhood. Our double room was comfortable and clean as was the bathroom. Breakfasts were quite good including cheeses and cold cuts. With all the tourist activity in places like the Piazza Navona, etc. ( even in October) it was refreshing to come back to a quiet street a little off the beaten path at the end of the day. Would absolutely stay at the Nerva again.
The staff is not honest!
I reserved a room in hotel Nerva directly from the manager Amelio via phone and e-mail. I asked for the best possible rate and Amelio offered a great rate for a small room (usually used as a single room). We arrived at the hotel around 7pm and Maria at the front desk gave us 2 keys - one from the room and another from the bathroom. Apparently, the bathroom was across the public hallway from the room! When I asked why we were not informed that the room has no private bathroom, we were told that it is private and it is only for us. They did not consider that you lose your privacy by walking at night across the public hallway with a key to open bathroom!? When I asked to be moved, I was told that the hotel was booked completely. Amelio came later and when I asked him if it was only us whom he did not inform that the bathroom is separate from the room, he said that he only tells people about it if they ask! How would you even think about asking this question from the 3 star hotel with no single word about this special arrangement of the rooms on the web site? In addition, we could not find any other hotel available at night and spent the first night in that room. The bathroom was a small room with toilet and sink, and it was just a showerhead on the wall, no curtains, no separation from the toilet. When you take shower the water flows on the toilet and then you standing in the dirty water! If you need to use the toilet it is all wet! Just amazing! The breakfast was in the small room, in the basement, only 5 or 6 tables, with Amelio serving you as a waiter. It was fresh and sufficient breakfast but under the constant supervision of the Amelio and Maria. Amelio promised to help us to find another hotel early in the morning, but did not say anything when he saw us at the breakfast. We found hotel Forum just one block up from Nerva and we spent the rest of the vacation in one of the best hotels we ever stayed before. The location of Nerva is good, but there is no view but a wall of the forum. The room was clean. We did not see any other rooms. If you are making reservation at Hotel Nerva be sure not to get in situation like we did.
Simply the best
We stayed there for 4 nights, we asked for a small double bedroom. We were extremely surprised by the quality of the room. The toilets are furnished with nice ceramics, the shower was a bit too small for me, very fresh carpets in the rooms, beds are comfortable and the linen are great...extremely clean! One night, the A/C stopped working and we started to feel uncomfortable. We called the reception, Roberto answered and brougth back the A/C...what a service. The breakfast is quite elaborated, ask Maria for a cappuccino...very good. Fantastic location, 10 minutes walk from hotel to Coliseo or Vittoriano. We paid around 200 euros for our room during the high season and did not regret. If u spend 4 nights and more, they tend to give some discount. Also, ask them for some ideas regarding restaurants...you will not be disappointed. Will go back for sure!
Perfect Location, Genuine Hospitality
Based upon the Trip Advisor reviews and those from other sources, we chose the Hotel Nerva for our five night Rome getaway. We were not disappointed. The room (on the ground floor) was charming; clean, large enough for our needs and opened into the inner courtyard. The bathroom was like new. The owners are very warm and hospitable, and the breakfasts were generous. We felt completely safe in/near the hotel, day and night. The location is perfect, in walking distance to almost everywhere we wanted to go. We felt at home there and will not hesitate to stay there again.
Fabulous find!
I searched for months to find a decent, friendly, quiet, reasonably priced and hopefully charming hotel. I chose Hotel Nerva on a whim and we were delighted with it. It's walking distance from just about everything. Great hospitality, good breakfast, pleasant room: what more could we ask for? We will definitely be back! One thing worth noting, they only accepted cash, no credit cards. Although that policy may have changed by now.
Great small hotel
Very nice hotel within walking distance to all major attractions, right across the street from the Roman Forum. Very friendly english speaking staff and suite very spacious, great if traveling with children.

Emacs: Friend or Foe?
Now, what about bindings involving multiple keys? For example, I like to use the key sequence C-d C-d to delete a line (somewhat like its vi counterpart), and C-d g to delete text from point to the end of the buffer. The second argument to global-set-key can include multiple keys, but the problem is that C-d already has a meaning. We want to use C-d as a "prefix" key for the commands C-d C-d and C-d g, so first we have to unbind C-d. Here's what we do:
; Various keys for nuking text (global-unset-key "\C-d") (global-set-key "\C-d g" 'my-nuke-to-end) (global-set-key "\C-d\C-d" 'my-nuke-line)
We simply use global-unset-key to unbind C-d, and then bind new meanings to C-d g and C-d C-d. However, these functions are bound to the mysterious functions my-nuke-to-end, and my-nuke-line, which the astute among you will notice aren't standard Emacs functions. We have to define them.
Defining an Emacs LISP function is rather simple. Of course, Emacs functions can be quite powerful and complex, but in this case we're going to use the function to call a short sequence of other functions, which isn't so frightening. In general, if you need a key binding to call several functions in sequence, you must define a new function to wrap the sequence in.
Here is the definition of my-nuke-to-end, which should be placed above the corresponding call to global-set-key, which uses it, in the .emacs file.
(defun my-nuke-to-end () "Nuke text from here to end of buffer." (interactive "*") (kill-region (point) (point-max)))
The defun function takes as arguments the function name to define, a list of arguments (which, here, is empty), followed by the body of the function. Note that the first line of the body is a string constant, which is a short description of the function. This string is displayed when describe-key or describe-function is used to display information about my-nuke-to-end.
The second line of the body is a call to the interactive function. This is required for functions that are bound to keys. It simply tells Emacs how to execute the function interactively (that is, when called from a key sequence). The argument to interactive, "*", indicates that the function should not be executed within a read-only buffer. Check out the documentation for interactive if you want the gritty details. (See the sidebar "Getting the Emacs LISP Manual" for information on obtaining this documentation.)
The last line of the body uses the Emacs internal function kill-region to delete a region of text. The two functions point and point-max return the current location of point, and the position of the end of the buffer, respectively. kill-region deletes the text between these two locations.
The definition for my-nuke-line is somewhat more involved, because there is no single Emacs function that this operation maps to. Here it is:
(defun my-nuke-line (arg) "Nuke a line." (interactive "*p") (beginning-of-line nil) (kill-line arg) (if (= (point) (point-max)) (progn (forward-line -1) (end-of-line nil) (kill-line arg) (beginning-of-line nil))))
First of all, we see that this function now takes an argument, which we have called arg. Many Emacs key functions take a single numeric argument, which you can specify by prefixing the key with C-u, followed by a number. (That is, unless you've rebound C-u, as we have.) This numeric argument changes the behavior of certain functions. Here, arg is passed along to kill-line, used on lines 4 and 9 of the function body.
my-nuke-line is essentially a wrapper for kill-line, but takes care of a special case for the last line in the buffer. In this case, we want to delete the newline before the last line, which causes the last line to be clipped out altogether (otherwise, Emacs deletes the line, but leaves a blank one in its place). After interactive is called (with the "*p" argument, which causes arg to be converted to a number), beginning-of-line moves point to (surprise!) the beginning of the line. kill-line is then invoked. Note that kill-line only kills text from point to the end of the line; not the entire line.
Next, we compare the cursor position (point) with the end-of-buffer position (point-max). If they are equal, then we are trying to delete the last line of the buffer, and want to kill the previous terminating newline. We move back a line (using forward-line with an argument of -1), move to the end of that line, kill the rest of the line (which consists only of the terminating newline), and move back to the beginning of the line. All of this results in the last line of the buffer being deleted.
I'm sure that there are Emacs gurus out there that can find much better ways to accomplish the same thing; please bear with me. I've been brainwashed by vi. One of Emacs' better features is that there are many ways to modify its behavior.
Thanks - nice article for an
Thanks - nice article for an new emacs convert (from vi...)
A couple of typos in the code for multiple key sequences:
; Various keys for nuking text (global-unset-key "\C-d")
(global-set-key "\C-d g" 'my-nuke-to-end)
(global-set-key "\C-d\C-d" 'my-nuke-line)
which I believe should be:
; Various keys for nuking text
(global-unset-key "\C-d")
(global-set-key "\C-dg" 'my-nuke-to-end)
(global-set-key "\C-d\C-d" 'my-nuke-line)
At least that worked for me.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Babysitting: Emergencies
What's in this article?
Most babysitting jobs go smoothly and the worst thing that happens is a fight over the last ice pop. But for the rare times when an emergency does happen, you need to be ready to handle it. That means thinking ahead and planning for anything that could happen.
Prepare in Advance
Like a surprise pop quiz, some emergencies — such as poisoning, choking, or falls — require that you know the material. Before you even begin babysitting, it's a good idea to learn basic first aid, the Heimlich maneuver (for choking), and infant and child CPR. These allow you to begin providing emergency care to a child while you are waiting for help.
To sign up for these courses, check with your local hospital, YMCA, or Red Cross. Besides offering training in things like CPR and the Heimlich maneuver, some may even offer extensive babysitting courses. Some high schools offer this, too.
Because you'll have to attend courses and make a real commitment to learn these lifesaving procedures, talk it over with your parents before signing up. That way they know how important it is to you and can drive you to classes if you need them to.
Top Things to Know About Emergencies
- Know the full address of the home where you're babysitting in case you need to call emergency services (if there's a fire, for example).
- Be sure you have easy access to emergency numbers. Have parents post numbers for the Poison Control Center and other emergency info in an obvious place or program them into your phone.
- Only do CPR or the Heimlich maneuver if you've been properly trained. If you don't know what you're doing, you could injure a child.
When you babysit for a new family, ask the parents to write down their full home address. It may sound basic to ask for this kind of information, but it's so basic that many people forget. If you need to call 911 from the home phone, the dispatcher will probably be able to tell where in the United States you are located but will still need an address.
Every family should have a fire escape plan with more than one exit from the home, as well as a designated meeting place outside the house or apartment building. Be sure that both you and the kids know them. To feel even more prepared, make it a fun activity to practice the escape route with the kids.
Ask parents if the smoke alarms in the home are working and how recently they've been checked. It may remind them to check the alarms.
Finally, ask the child's parents to show you where they keep fire extinguishers. If you're not familiar with using one, read the instructions or ask the parents for a demonstration.
If you smell smoke or see a flame in the house, call 911, gather the children, and put the fire escape plan into action right away.
Be Prepared, Not Scared!
It may seem scary to think about this stuff — it certainly brings home what a huge responsibility babysitting can be. Although it's unlikely you'll ever need to react to a serious emergency, just knowing what to do can help you feel more confident. Plus, knowing things like CPR or the proper way to do the Heimlich maneuver could give you an edge over other babysitters: Parents feel much safer when their sitters know these lifesaving techniques.

A Town of Tonawanda man pulled over for speeding Wednesday afternoon on Ellicott Creek Road in the City of Tonawanda yielded police one of the biggest drug seizures in the city's recent history.
A search of the man's vehicle turned up 4.5 pounds of marijuana, along with hundreds of pills – including 262 Xanax, 45 Alprazolam and 26 Suboxone – marijuana butter and hash oil, as well as pipes, scales and grinders. Police also found two backpacks stuffed with $24,533 in cash.
City of Tonawanda Police Officer Frank Washburn stopped Graham M. Hagen, 25, of Parker Boulevard, for allegedly going 50 mph in a 30-mph zone at about 2:10 p.m.
The officer noticed a "strong odor of marijuana" in the car, police said in a statement.
"This was one of our larger seizures in the past few years. Based on the quantity and weight of the marijuana, the street value of the marijuana alone was $20,000," said Police Capt. Fredric Foels in the statement.
A State Police drug-sniffing dog from Clarence was brought in to help in the investigation.
Hagen was charged with felony counts of criminal possession of narcotic drugs with intent to sell and criminal possession of marijuana, and other lower level charges – including a speeding ticket.
He was arraigned in City Court and bail was set at $10,000. A relative posted bail. A felony hearing is scheduled for Tuesday.

I came across this quote on my friend Stacey's blog this week and I just love it. In How to Be Here, Rob Bell writes this: You and I were raised in a modern world that taught us how to work hard and be productive and show up on time and give it our best… We learned lots of very valuable skills, but we weren't taught how to be here, how to be fully present in this moment, how to not be distracted or stressed or worried or anxious, but just be here, and nowhere else—wide awake to the infinite depth and dimension of this exact moment.
I could pick out clothes or a new lego set, but what I really wanted was quality time with my nieces, who are turning 7 and 4 this month.
May is the fullest month we have over here. About seven birthdays within both our immediate families (my own included), mothers day, memorial..it makes for a lot of holidays and celebrating.
I took the base of my ice cream maker out of the freezer because it was taking up too much real estate only to put it right back in.

I started a post about my place in the work/life/momming balance and I realized I just don't have much to share on figuring through that yet.
I am behind in tax prep so the text will be terse today. All I have on my mind is sheer amazement at how much of our income goes towards food.
We roast a lot of vegetables in the cooler months. Everything dumped onto one large sheet pan, almost any number of spice combinations, and then you just leave them alone.
I rocked Cleo for a solid hour in that stained, suede chair. Nursing on either side of that just to try to calm her down while she screamed at me.
I am months behind on reading the food magazines but am working my way backwards. I love the content towards the beginning of the year because it's the lighter, vegetable focused stuff that is nowhere to be found in all the holiday issues. I was obsessed with this piece in the March issue of Food + Wine about the "new healthy" kinds of foods - which, surprise, is just real food.
So many things to say of our newest addition and after a month plus of very broken, insufficient sleep, she continues to prove to be as spicy as we guessed she'd be in utero. In only knowing Cleo for a short month, I can already tell her and Curran are entirely different people.
I have photos and thoughts to share of the newest addition to our team, baby Cleo Jane, but will get my act together on that next week.

There is little doubt that Hadoop adoption is growing, and not just among enterprise-sized organizations, but by small- and medium-sized businesses as well. In an effort to understand this maturing market more deeply, Pepperdata conducted a survey about how and why Hadoop is used for business operations.
The 134 survey respondents came from a range of experience, but all work at companies currently running Hadoop in production. The majority of respondents were from software engineering/development, data scientist, or data architect job titles (25 percent, 17 percent, and 12 percent, respectively). Almost half (40 percent) were from the information technology industry, with education and financial services (11 percent and 10 percent) coming in second and third. Over 45 percent have been in production for two years or more, with 15 percent of those being "advanced users" (four years or more in production).
In this slideshow, Pepperdata shares findings from the survey, such as key use cases, the size of Hadoop environments, and biggest challenges to production deployment.
