Q. Once I decide on an escort, how do I contact them?
A. When you visit an escort's profile, there should be options for contacting them visible on the page. Many provide a phone number and email address, so you can choose a method that is most appropriate for your circumstances.
Q. Should I share any specific information in my first communication?
A. If you enquire over the phone, the escort should guide the conversation. If you send a message or email, or any form of written communication, think about including any personal details you think may be important: your name, gender, what service you're interested in, preferred method of hearing back and suitable times for future communications are all useful things to include.
Q. Do Perth escorts have to do anything I ask?
A. Escorts are essentially like any other small business owner – they have the freedom to choose when, where and how they work. It is no different to getting a haircut: you can approach an escort to do business with them, but they will decide if they want to!
Q. What does it mean when an advertiser's profile says in call or out call?
A. These terms refer to where an escort works. In calls are where you go to them, and out calls are where they go to where you are.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Retailer HSN (Nasdaq: HSNI ) overcame weak consumer spending and popped 15% in intraday trading today after earnings trounced expectations.
So what: Non-GAAP EPS of $0.60 walloped the consensus estimate of $0.41 and grew 28% year over year. GAAP EPS of $0.53 grew 27% year over year. Revenue of $747 million grew 8% and came in 2% above the consensus forecast.
Now what: Compared to the year-ago quarter, the company's average price point increased 7%, unit volume increased 1%, and the return rate dropped to 17.6% from 18.2%. The CEO touted ongoing increases in e-commerce sales penetration, an expanding mobile business, and the success of HSN's online gaming site, HSN Arcade. The company seems to have turned a corner that will make year-over-year growth comparables tougher starting with this year's holiday shopping season.

We want to warn you, for some of our more sensitive viewers this story and images may be considered graphic.
According to investigators, a goat was placed in a dog carrier with its head removed and left on the levy in Clarkston. Captain Dan Hally said this does not point to a satanic ritual but they're not ruling anything out at this time.
"We haven't ruled anything out specifically but there can be all kinds of reasons behind something of this nature," said Hally. "A lot of people jump to different conclusions. But there's no information outside of we found a goat that was killed. But it is a case that causes concern for folks."
We did some research of our own and found that on December 21st, the winter solstice, there's a pagan holiday where the sacrifice of a goat is not uncommon.
If you have information about this, you're urged to call law enforcement immediately.

I've been busy lately making a collection of World Cup themed videos with scientific twists.
Today the focus was physics, starting with this one for Sixty Symbols about the now notorious Jabulani football.
Featured in the video are some of the people I occasionally play five-a-side football with, mainly physicists and astronomers.
Some of them didn't like the ball, but I thought it was good (you can even see me taking a free kick in the above film!)
It feels a bit cheap and "plasticky" to touch, but I thought it pinged nicely of the foot.
After filming a few free kicks and other footage, we staged an impromptu penalty shoot-out which I made into a bonus video.
By the way, the football "stars" featured in the video are Tony Padilla, Mark Brook, Fernando Buitrago Alonso, Amandeep Josan, Bret Podgorzec, Amanda Bauer, James Clewett, Boris Häußler and Udai Panicker.
They showed up at short notice and I'm very grateful.
Also a quick thanks to the university groundsmen (who set up the goals and painted lines just for us) and to the School of Chemistry which lent us the lab coats.
And thanks to my friend Natalie for loaning us the ball (they are too pricey to buy just for the video!)
Keeping the theme of World Cup, here's another one we made about vuvuzelas...
Professor Philip Moriarty who features in this video is a real music nut and loves doing anything that involves sound waves and harmonics!
This extra video of just the raw sound files was put together for the super anoraks who love sound engineering!
And for those who missed it earlier this month, here's The Periodic Table of Videos film about the World Cup trophy.
Is this the end of my World Cup adventure? Maybe not.
I have a language expert who might be able to help me with another video for Words of the World.
As always, stay tuned!

Tomb Raider Review
While travelling with a documentary crew in search of the lost kingdom of Yamatai, they are shipwrecked after entering a region known as The Dragon's Triangle (South of main land Japan), an area known for claiming ships and their crews.
Lara Croft finds herself on an island inhabited by a mysterious and violent cult. With her crew missing and the cult on her tail, Lara must overcome, adapt and survive. Tomb Raider represents a stark change in tone from previous Tomb Raider games and also represents a big change in Lara's character. Lara is undoubtedly the focus of this game, which is great but at times to the detriment of the supporting cast who never seem to elevate beyond cardboard cut-out film/game tropes. The main antagonist of the story also feels underdeveloped. This is a shame as it feels like a wasted opportunity to create a memorable ensemble cast. Which to an extent is understandable seeing as Lara's development is central to the story. The real stars here are Lara and The Island.
Much has been made of Lara's seemingly abrupt change from disgust at taking a life to 'cold killer.' While part of this can be attributed to the gameplay needing to take precedent at some point, I think when Lara's actions are looked at in the context in which they are shown it makes more sense. It is a life or death situation and she's decided she needs to live and killing is only way to make that happen.
This game takes a more desperate and realistic tone than previous installments and it shows in the sheer beating Lara is subjected to at every turn. Combined with the dark and depressing feel of the island, it adds to the sense of Lara being out of her depth. It also serves to highlight the mystery of the island, a mystery which will keep you wanting to drive towards the end.
Tomb Raider's graphics are in a word: impressive. While not the best I've ever seen on a console it is still a gorgeous game to look at. The vistas are some of the most beautiful I've seen and the game makes a point of highlighting these well. I'm a sucker for weather effects in games and Tomb Raider has these in spades. Weather does a great job of creating an oppressive and ominous tone.
The score was composed by Jason Graves who has also scored games such as Dead Space, Alpha Protocol and Section 8. Here Graves creates a great big orchestral score that would fit right in with any big budget action adventure movie.
Most of the voice actors perform well, with the most standout performance being Lara herself (Camilla Luddington). The other cast members are good but lack any real depth. This could be due to the writing more than the actor's abilities. Tomb Raider has some great sound design but the one lacking aspect is the gun sound. These mostly sound fake and lack any depth.
Early previews of the game had fans worried that Tomb Raider would turn out to be a very linear game. Luckily, those fears were unfounded. A lot of the preview footage that was shown was from early in the game and that is fairly linear but it acts to serve the story and Lara's first trial. After this culminates into a climatic and emotional moment, the game then starts to open up. One of the best aspects of the new Tomb Raider is the great sense of exploration. The game is filled with lots of collectibles like relics and journals. The journals also help to flesh out the story and characters, past and present. As well as these there are also challenges that are unique to different areas. These usually involve destroying x number of this or find x number of that. These collectibles and challenges provide a nice change of pace. Thanks to quick travel, which is available through campsites you are able to travel to any other campsite you have discovered, making artifact searching much easier. You are also able to use the Quick Travel feature at any time during the game, without the need to finish the story first.
As a third person shooter Tomb Raider's combat controls are very good. Gunplay is responsive and satisfying. You get all the basic weapon types (handgun, shotgun and rifle). As you collect these weapons you are able to upgrade them by collecting scrap of metal and weapon components. The more you upgrade your equipment, the more the island becomes accessible, giving you access to areas earlier in the game that were previously unacceptable (Metroid/Castlevania style).
The stand out weapon is of course the Bow; upgrades allow you to use mods like flame arrows and grappling ropes. It's one of the most versatile weapons in the game and one you'll find yourself using most of the time.
As well as upgrading your weapons you are also able to upgrade Lara's skills. Different actions gain you XP and once you 'level up' you are able to spend the points on new abilities. These skills range from new finishers, bonuses to salvage collection, XP and health. Once certain skills are unlocked, Lara is able to use close-quarter melee attacks on her enemies. Whilst many of these are stylish and fun to execute, trying to do so when up against multiple enemies can be problematic as you will often get shot when trying to set yourself up for a melee finisher. Overall, levelling up is fun and it also adds to the story of Lara's character arch.
One of the biggest changes from previous Tomb Raiders is that now, tombs are optional. These also add a refreshing change of pace from combat and while the puzzles aren't exactly difficult, solving them is still satisfying and the rewards are good.
Tomb Raider's controls follow a pretty standard fair when compared to other third-person games. The controls are tight and responsive. The only issue I had was on occasion while climbing, Lara didn't seem to want to hang on to the wall after making a jump. But this was a rare occurrence and checkpoints in this game are fairly generous. The use of a minimalist HUD also helped with the immersion of the game and I am a big fan of this method.
The GUI of the menu system is also quite nice and easy to navigate. It has somewhat of a comic book/minimalist look, a la Max Payne, which I like.
Adding multiplayer to Tomb Raider was pointless to say the least. Multiplayer doesn't bring anything that will keep you playing. Gameplay is not as good as the single player. Give it a miss.
Rebooting a series is a tall order that can go oh so wrong, yet Crystal Dynamics have met that challenge head on and created something truly impressive. The gameplay is solid and both the platforming and exploration engaging. The addition of collectibles and challenges will have you coming back to explore the island even more. Tomb Raider is definitely one of the best games I've played in a long time and one worthy of your time.

Where TR felt like Uncharted, I didn't see this as a negative, but as a case of taking a proven, well working system and making good use of it, rather than trying to be "different" or "Innovative". (Note - I'm not saying they used the UC system, but if imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Nathan Drake would be well flattered
It also made me think that a cross-over Tomb Raider/Uncharted game could be an interesting (and possibly good?) idea. Maybe something along the lines of a co-op adventure, where only the steely resolve of Lara and the Iron wit of Nathan can save the day!
And at the end they could have little Uncharted/Tomb Raider children who could have spin-off games! (Or games on the Vita; the Baby PS3
Now I'm probably being silly.
My biggest disappointment was the lack of swan dive
Had that been in the game, it would have been a solid 10 for me. What's the point of a Lara you can't swan dive off various high points? It's a Tomb Raider tradition goddamit!!
In all, this is a fantastic start for a reboot of an old favourite, and a game I very much enjoyed playing.
* By quick finish, I got all but 4 single player trophies - One of the hidden ones, and 3 enemy related ones - in pretty much a single weekend with change.
Edit: Some of the text looks a little funny, no idea why.

This is exactly how I felt.
I liked what they did with the end fights.

Campus Food:
Dining halls do not have much variety and usually don't have many healthy options but the restaurant choices are great.
Campus Food:
The meal plans are very expensive and the food is not worth the money. Although the dining halls are "all you care to eat," you are not allowed to get however much food as you'd like in a traditional buffet.
Campus Food:
The campus food is okay, and they have been trying to improve it in recent years.
Campus Food:
I am not a picky eater, so I can literally always find something to eat at the dining hall. In my opinion, the food at Rams and Lenoir is some of the best dining hall food compared to other colleges I have eaten at. Also, flex is awesome for Wendy's and Alpine! If you think you will use the meals, a mean plan is definitely worth the money.
Campus Food:
The flex dollars are very useful in purchasing food! In the dining halls, I wish there were more vegetarian options.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
Carolina has an abundance of dining options that range from vegan dishes to fast food and even sushi. UNC has been noted several times for some of the best on-campus dining, which is entirely visible at the Lenoir and Rams Head dining halls. Although there are some off days, most of the time there is so much selection that it's rare to not find something that would appease the most discriminating of appetites. Many nights during the year have a theme, giving a little extra variety to what can become tired due to frequent visits. One of the biggest drawbacks at these dining halls, however, is the lack of seating at prime times. If you are going during the busy hours, you might find yourself elbowing your way to a table.
Carolina dining also has a great number of on-campus restaurants that serve delicious foods throughout the day. One of the best kept secrets at UNC is the athletic dining hall, which is found at Kenan Stadium. Although it is only open for lunch, it has some of the best dining hall food on campus, and it accepts regular meal plans and flex. Overall UNC dining is a great resource for the hungry collegiate.

Sayers v. City of Danbury
Property that previously was used as a nursery and currently is used to mix topsoil may not qualify for a tax exemption for farm land, even though the property owners continue to hold a nursery license. Prior to 1985, the plaintiffs' 2.5-acres of property on two adjacent lots were used as a nursery business. Currently, the plaintiffs operate a business, Danbury Topsoil, which receives soils, mixes the soils and delivers the soils to customers. In November 2008, although the plaintiffs held a nursery license the municipal assessor for the City of Danbury denied the plaintiffs' request for a farmland exemption, pursuant to Connecticut General Statutes §12-107c. The city's board of assessment appeals affirmed. The plaintiffs appealed to the Superior Court and cited the 1970 Connecticut Supreme Court decision in Johnson v. Board of Tax Review, in which a court found that a nursery qualified for an exemption. C.G.S. §12-107c provides, "In determining whether such land is farm land, such assessor shall take into account, among other things, the acreage of such land, the portion thereof in actual use for farming or agriculture operations, the productivity of such land, the gross income derived therefrom, the nature and value of the equipment used in connection therewith, and the extent to which the tracts composing such land are contiguous." The Superior Court found that the plaintiffs are in the business of mixing soils that are brought to their properties. This business use does not further the legislative policy in C.G.S. §12-107c to exempt property from taxation, to preserve farm land. "The mere holding of a nursery license is not controlling," wrote the court. "While the plaintiffs' properties do not produce anything, in contrast the nursery in Johnson grew plants, [trees,] bushes and shrubs." It would conflict with the statutory scheme to continue to classify the property as farm land when it no longer qualifies as farm land. The court denied the plaintiffs' appeals.VIEW FULL CASE

In order to test the evolutionary relationships among species of Leptochloa (spangletop grasses), Peterson et al. conduct a molecular phylogenetic analysis using six DNA markers of 130 warm-season grasses (subfamily Chloridoideae). Twenty-two species of Leptochloa are found in five separate lineages that do not share a single common ancestor. The molecular results support the dissolution of Leptochloa sensu lato into the following five genera: Dinebra with 23 species, Diplachne with two species, Disakisperma with three species, Leptochloa sensu stricto with five species, and a new genus described for the first time, Trigonochloa, with two species. A key based on morphological characteristics is provided to separate the five genera.

'Zelda,' 'Final Fantasy' concerts coming to Milwaukee
When Jack Tell first heard the familiar melodies from Nintendo's "The Legend of Zelda" video game franchise, brought to life by a full orchestra, he nearly cried.
"I didn't quite get there. I felt a little bit ridiculous, crying to 'Zelda' music," said the 22-year-old guitarist and vocalist for the local pop-rock band Animals in Human Attire. »Read Full Article(1)

Ukay International Jewellers, London
Description Ukay International Jewellers, London
Ukay Group Limited is a company with a history spanning more 22 years. The business originally started in 1979, when Mr Ahfaz Miah opened a leather garment manufacturers store.
Mr Miah, living in the East End with the other Asian community saw a great need for the supply of Asian foods. At the time the Asian population had to go to great distances to buy Asian food supplies. Using profits generated by the successful leather garments store, Mr Miah opened an Asian food supermarket to cater for the great need that had developed. The supermarket was a first in the London's East End. Since then, many others have followed.
Having played a big role in establishing a food source for London's Asian community, Mr Miah turned his attention to another need greatly lacking: clothing. Asian people have a rich and colourful attire. The westernised clothing styles did not match that of which Asians were used to. Mr Miah then opened the greatly successful Ukay International Saree Centre.

Improving both domain and total area estimation by composition
Document typeArticle
Date issued2004
PublisherInstitut d'Estadística de Catalunya
Rights accessOpen Access
In this article we propose small area estimators for both the small and large area parameters. When the objective is to estimate parameters at both levels, optimality is achieved by a sample design that combines fixed and proportional allocation. In such a design, one fraction of the sample is distributed proportionally among the small areas and the rest is evenly distributed. Simulation is used to assess the performance of the direct estimator and two composite small area estimators, for a range of sample sizes and different sample distributions. Performance is measured in terms of mean squared errors for both small and large area parameters. Small area composite estimators open the possibility of reducing the sample size when the desired precision is given, or improving precision for a given sample size.

Stand up sparring lately: Landed some decent right crosses. Felt a little light, not sure if I subconsciously pulled them a lil bit or if they were just light, or both. Didn't really do much with kicks. Didn't really get tagged, but didn't really do as much as I would've liked. Footwork while sparring suuuucked. I was just OK with my head movement, but I wasn't using angles for shit.
Been working on head movement. Worked on it with Squirrel a bit, a little drill where he tries to use my head like a double end bag and I obviously try not to get jabbed to death. Basically lighter power, but as full speed as possible without hitting harder. Been doing a little bit of head movement with the mirror but nothing special about that.
Groin's been really tight lately (I would imagine because I haven't been stretching). So in sparring I haven't thrown any head kicks at all, and hardly any body kicks. Same for when I'm working technique solo; haven't really been at least practicing mid and high kicks like I should've been. I stretched out really hard today early in the day, and again after a strength training session. So I'm going to try not to lose what I regained today and try to get back to my old flexibility in the weeks upcoming.
Grappling: Rolled with Squirrel few days ago. I subbed him with an arm triangle that he kind of had to convince me to do, lol... I had it from full mount and thought I should slide over into side control to try to finish with it, but I didn't want to lose mount and end up on the bottom again. But he got me to pause and told me to slide over into side control, so I did, and I got it. Seems like it took way too long though. /// Before that however, Squirrel subbed with an armbar. I absolutely should not have fallen into it, but I did like a scrub. Moreover, I should've fought harder to get out of it, but as soon as he really started to lock it up I tapped.
Was watching some footage of myself throwing jabs (I'm not comfortable right now putting video up), and it's kind of an interesting thing. I feel like I have an especially long jab that reminds me of some old school heavyweight boxers I've seen. It's interesting and I like it, I really move into it and stretch out to maximize my decent reach. The downside of it being that I've seen a good inside fighter tear apart a primarily outside fighter who tried to really use that jab. This makes me really want to work on my inside game. Not clinch game per se, but just inside game. Harder bodyshots, tighter hooks, faster uppercuts.
Cardio stuff: Jogged on Tuesday, mile and a half. My actual run speed is kind of fast, but I get winded and end up speed walking like an elderly woman at a mall. Did sprints on Wednesday. I didn't stretch properly after either of those cardio things, so I tightened up a lot and actually felt kind of strained yesterday/today after the sprints. Sprints actually hit my quads comedically hard, but it's all good. Trying to keep my cardio mixed up to really hit my lungs from all angles. Not Thursday nor today did I do any cardio, which I'm not really happy about. Might do some hiit tomorrow and/or some "lazy cardio" on the Gazelle. Really enjoy sprinting though, as it lets me stay in a particular area.
Diet: Screwed up a couple times, normally dinner, where I had a really fatty or carb heavy meal. Otherwise I've been pretty good. A few snacks here or there that need to be cut out (poptarts have become one of my weaknesses [Squirrel will laugh], but poptarts are RIDICULOUSLY unhealthy). Been eating fairly lean meats, or taking protein shakes when I can't be bothered to cook. Chicken a couple times, lots of tuna (too much on Tuesday, actually), and some 80/20 ground beef that I put in a chilli Wednesday, plus beans and such. Been having a bit of fruit for breakfast, also for protein shakes (I'll toss in a banana or a cup of OJ, for flavor/extra vitamin content), and I MIGHT snack on a couple grapes throughout the day to tide me over. I've been fitting at least one vegetable dish into my meal plan each day, be it a bowl of cut raw broccoli, or a pepper or two, or a salad, or a couple of whole carrots. Taking a generic daily vitamin, daily - but that's about it in terms of supplements (not counting protein shakes).
Strength training: I appreciate Strongman style training, and I still plan to use and implement strongman concepts, but I feel like I need to revisit some bodybuilding and powerlifting methods. Probably won't be doing much (if any) muscle isolation stuff, but I'll be doing more volume work. I'll still be blending plyo and bodyweight stuff as well as some oly lifting. Did hang cleans and inverted rows on tuesday night, as well as some between the leg style swings of a dumbbell I modded to be kettlebell-like. Did a max flat bench set Wednesday (which was shitty as all get out) and then some volume stuff with barbell incline bench and db decline bench. Then today I did legs; matching a strength move with a power move - stiff leg deads (explosive, volume) with max effort leg curls, and heavy zercher squats with box jumps. I should've gone heavier on the zercher squats, because by the last set I was coming out of the bottom of the squat like I didn't have any weight in my arms. I also knocked out some hip presses (with a 5lb db) and some leg extensions (both as volume) to just kind of roundout the workout.I've been trying to make my strength training sessions a lot shorter and a lot more intense. I'll probably be adding some more oddball ab/core work into my future strength training routines. Things like weighted stiff leg situps, rotational swings/slams, farmer's walk/overhead carry/zercher carry, weird stuff like that.
Think this week I'll set up a string and practice with that age-old head movement/footwork drill. Maybe staple a string to my basement ceiling and hang a tennis ball to mess with slipping on. Probably try to commit a few shadowboxing/bag sessions to focusing on moving in angles and fast feet.

They've chosen their destiny. Now they have an eternity to discover its dark, seductive pleasures.
Jennifer Slain has been unwillingly indoctrinated into eternal life as a vampire. When they see that her hunger for primal sex is rivaled only by her thirst for blood, the other vampires show her a training ground where mortals serve only to satisfy the vampires' sexual desires and carnal hunger. And now Jen's boyfriend, with the help of a vampire hunter, devises a plan to save her. But they may be in over their heads because danger and passion are the only laws when the dark creatures come out to embrace the darkness.

My album, From the Garden of Bitter Herbs, recently became available on ITunes, Amazon and other digital sales outlets and a dizzying burst of inspiration lead me to create the first Bitter Herb's video, for 1-2-3 Ruminate. All of the images were hand drawn on my Iphone and the animated video was put together over a frenetic ten day period. It was an exciting, frustrating and, ultimately, rewarding adventure. Please come visit and let me know what you think.
Not to be lost amidst the barbecues, gardening and swimming is the true purpose of the holiday...so we suggest a moment of reflection because there have been lives paradoxically lost all over the world in the search for peace and it never looks like there's an end in sight. It has been said that peace is defined as the time it takes to reload our weapons. Let's look forward to a time when we can speak through guitars instead of rifles.
Some say the songs from the bitter herb's catalog are reminiscent of bob dylan, circa blonde on blonde. some say the bitter herbs' music sounds like it was written by leonard cohen, sung by lou reed with backing by wilco.
while we are still fine tuning, we invite you to listen and let us know what you think.
welcome to the garden of the bitter herbs

It once a bank, hotel, several shops, a school, a post office, the church, and was a stop on the railroad. A peaceful little burg? Not at all! The four bars and liquor stores were the only place to buy booze for 100's of miles to the east. Old folks will tell you that people used to fly their planes into Taiban to cart liquor back to West Texas and Oklahoma when these here parts were dry as a dusty day!

The Douglas High girls tennis team saw its undefeated season come to an end Friday with a 15-3 loss against Reno in the Northern Division I Region Team Tournament championship match in Reno.
The defending region champion Reno Huskies (11-0) were in command from the start of the final at Caughlin Athletic Club. Madelyn Landerfelt accounted for two of the Tigers' points and the other came in the third round from Kelly Sonnemann and Katelin Teigen in doubles.
On Thursday, Douglas (10-1) racked up a 13-5 victory at home against McQueen in a semifinal that was closer than the score shows.
"It was much tighter than the score reflects … lots of nail biters," Douglas assistant coach Ginny Unger said.
Douglas won three sets in tie-breakers to advance past McQueen (8-2).
The Tigers' No. 1 doubles team of Kellie Hergenrader and Tara Cottrill won tie-breakers against their second- and third-round opponents — rallying from 4-1 deficits both times. They won the respective tie-breakers by scores of 7-4 and 7-5.
Courtney McKimmey also came from behind to win her first round No. 2 singles set and freshman Maggie Rich won 6-1 at No. 3 singles as the Tigers took an early 4-2 lead. Five of the six sets in the first round were decided by scores of 6-3 or closer.
Landerfelt remained unbeaten for the season as the freshman won each of her three sets.
Team co-captains Sonnemann and Teigen won their three doubles sets.
"They played extremely well today, serving and poaching at the net," Unger said of Sonnemann and Teigen.
The region individual tournament begins on Wednesday at Carson High School.

Embarkation a breeze, no line, right on board with mimosa in hand. Rooms ready a bit after 1pm.
Went directly to MDR to ck on dining table & to talk to maître d about food allergies. we'd requested (via TA & Celebrity-thru email, & yes I had my confirmation email with me) a round table of six. We were given (initially) 3 tables of 2. Ana, the restaurant hostess remembered my email, immediately fixed it & all was well. We had a fantastic waiter, Froilan & his assistant, Mark -- best waiter service in years!
Have to comment about our assistant maître d, Erkan. He was tremendous! Came to every table, every night, seemed genuinely interested in our enjoyment, not only of the food, but also of our days activities. I don't believe the man slept, as he spent his days in the buffet (breakfast & lunch) supervising & actually clearing tables if needed (most unusual, nice to see the can-do team attitude). His team appeared to be very tightly knit & cheerful.
I hosted the Sailaway for 110 cruise critic friends. The event coordinator, Annie, & bar manager, Allwyn, actually set up a separate bar for us on the lawn - such a nice touch - hope you all found us, we were still close to the Sunset Bar!
We dined in Tuscan Grille one night, the filet mignon was perfect; however, we all felt that the service was rushed. We gladly went back to the MDR with Froilan & Mark. Bistro on Five was a lovely lunch one sea day. Oceanview Cafe was SO much better than before. I had perfect poached eggs every day & everyone on staff was so cheerful.
This was the first time we'd had a beverage package, not sure I'll ever be able to cruise without one again! So convenient, especially not signing those little slips of paper! Beverage service was great, except casino; didn't appear to be any servers other than an overworked (but friendly) bartender. Music level was not an issue (as reported in other posts) for us. The Molecular Bar (oh, the Indulgence!!!), CellarMasters & Martini Bar were favorites.
We attended the production shows & music by Travis--he was truly superb. However, the final number of the last show, when the CD, Paul Baya, sang...the man has a spectacular (obviously trained) voice & I'm so glad he shared that with us.
We were thrilled to be invited to the Helipad Sailaway from Dominica & a bridge tour. They were highlights for both of us.
We did this exact cruise last year, so the islands weren't new to us.
Disembarkation was painless, got off on group 27, got our bags through customs & in our car driving away in about 30 minutes.
Going to try the Eclipse next year for the 14 night itinerary -- she'll have to go some to beat the service that the Equinox gave us this year!
Cat tour to Nevis was wonderful, BBQ lunch was good; but we barely made the ship (10 min prior to departure). Either the time needs to be extended for St Kitts or eliminate the island. If we hadn't been in a ship tour we would have been stressing.

The CyberPower Infinity 860 struggles to keep up with the leaders in this category despite housing the quickest CPU (central processing unit) in the Top Five – the Intel Core 2 Duo E6700.
- Chillblast Fusion Raider 6600
- Mesh Elite GTS Media
- Evesham Solar Storm
- CyberPower Infinity 860
- Zoostorm 4-6405 Advanced PC
Fourth place
It might be the fastest chip on paper, but this theoretical dominance didn't convert into a particularly high score in our tests, with the CyberPower falling just behind the E6600-powered Chillblast, Mesh and Evesham PCs.
The CyberPower also features one of the best graphics cards, in the shape of the 640MB GeForce 8800 GTS. This translated into a slightly better effort in our games tests, with the Infinity finishing ahead of the Evesham. It still trailed behind the Chillblast. The raw specifications suggest this PC would be the best system overall, so we were slightly surprised to see only moderate real-world performance.
For a PC at this price point onboard sound is a bit of a disappointment, and the CyberPower doesn't feature much in the way of extras. That said, we can understand that plenty of the budget must have been lavished on the processor and graphics. This PC also suffers from having an extremely noisy case, a fault that may grate on the nerves rather more than CyberPower's inability to translate strong base components into truly devastating speed.
Buying advice
Processor: Intel's Core 2 Duo chips have established themselves as the best in just about every category and the sizzling E6600 model is proving itself the chip of choice for £751-£1,000 PCs. The E6600 is amazingly fast and holds a significant advantage over its Athlon counterparts. That's not to say AMD processors can't still do a job - especially if your budget is closer to £751 than £1,000 - but for those with the full amount to spend, the E6600 remains peerless.
Memory: The age of the 2GB PC is upon us. Given the power and juggling space required by 2007's software titles, 1GB PCs won't cut it at the top level in the Vista era - skimp on memory now and you might find yourself having to administer a critical upgrade later on. For the best performance, look for a high-quality memory maker such as Corsair.
Storage: It's hard to believe, but 250GB is now considered a small amount of storage space. All five of the manufacturers in our Top Five have included at least 320GB and, as Mesh and Zoostorm show, as much as 500GB is a possibility at this price. Make sure you get serial ATA cabling for rapid transfer rates. Cover backup with a multi-format DVD writer. Dual-layer capabilities (allowing you to store 8.5GB rather than 4.7GB on a disc) are a must, and you should make sure the drive supports DVD+R DL with a minimum of eight-speed or more. DVD-R DL is nice but not essential. Also, look for good eight- or 10-speed DVD+RW facilities. Other optional formats to consider include DVD-RAM.
Display: Flat-panel screens can vary wildly in quality - preferably look for a 19in model with a DVI (digital visual interface) that can support a resolution of 1,280x1,024 or more. You may be able to stretch to a good 20in screen, but be careful if you're offered a 22in flat-panel at this price - the quality of the image on cheap 22in models tends to be patchy. Bear in mind that you'll have to stare at this screen for long periods, so picture quality is an important consideration. Try to get a screen with a response time of 8ms or less so that the screen doesn't blur fast-moving images.
Graphics card: At this price, you should be able to get something rather startling. The nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS is making great waves in its 640MB incarnation, providing excellent graphics features and wonderful visual quality. It also packs DirectX 10.0 support, theoretically giving you access to some impressive games in the future - although it's too early to tell whether the card will be powerful enough to handle the demands of DirectX 10.0 in practice. Nonetheless, this is an excellent card for the money. The 320MB version of the 8800 GTS is also decent, although you will have to sacrifice a bit of detail.
Sound card and speakers: Onboard or integrated sound has come on in leaps and bounds, with support for 7.1-channel sound now available - but it's no match for a decent sound card. You should be able to get a card from Creative's Audigy 4 family or the excellent X-Fi range. If you want only 2.1-channel speakers then make sure they're high-quality, but most manufacturers are bundling 5.1 speakers. If you want audio excellence, you should hold out for a set of 7.1-channel speakers.

Eagles right tackle Winston Justice is writing a column for the Daily News again this season. His columns appear Wednesdays.
DIVISIONAL GAMES are always the toughest. There is a reason why some of our greatest rivalries occur within the division. We know the strengths and weaknesses of each other better than the other teams around the NFL, and it gets more personal on the field. Since we face the Redskins, Giants and Cowboys twice a year, these NFC East games are always extra physical and competitive. In general, we just really don't like one another.

Owner earnings
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1986, Warren Buffett detailed his valuation method. He stated that the value of a company is simply the total of the net cash flows expected to occur over the life of the business, discounted by an appropriate interest rate[citation needed].
Rather than using Wall Street earnings numbers for valuing a business, Warren Buffett stated that he prefers to use what he calls Owner Earnings. He defined owner earnings as follows:
- "These represent (a) reported earnings plus (b) depreciation, depletion, amortization, and certain other non-cash charges...less (c) the average annual amount of capitalized expenditures for plant and equipment, etc. that the business requires to fully maintain its long-term competitive position and its unit volume....Our owner-earnings equation does not yield the deceptively precise figures provided by GAAP, since (c) must be a guess - and one sometimes very difficult to make. Despite this problem, we consider the owner earnings figure, not the GAAP figure, to be the relevant item for valuation purposes...All of this points up the absurdity of the 'cash flow' numbers that are often set forth in Wall Street reports. These numbers routinely include (a) plus (b) - but do not subtract (c)."[1]

The Mystery of ISIS
The problem, however, lies not in chronicling the successes of the movement, but in explaining how something so improbable became possible. The explanations so often given for its rise—the anger of Sunni communities, the logistical support provided by other states and groups, the movement's social media campaigns, its leadership, its tactics, its governance, its revenue streams, and its ability to attract tens of thousands of foreign fighters—fall far short of a convincing theory of the movement's success.[more inside]
"For me, to live in Pakistan is to know extremes of hope and despair."
Globalization is a brutal phenomenon. It brings us mass displacement, wars, terrorism, unchecked financial capitalism, inequality, xenophobia, climate change. But if globalization is capable of holding out any fundamental promise to us, any temptation to go along with its havoc, then surely that promise ought to be this: we will be more free to invent ourselves. In that country, this city, in Lahore, in New York, in London, that factory, this office, in those clothes, that occupation, in wherever it is we long for, we will be liberated to be what we choose to be.- Discontent and Its Civilizations (excerpt), by Mohsin Hamid (previously); reviewed [more inside]

Hostis Humani Generis
The legal framework of terrorism has been ... complex. Under the Bush Administration, terrorists were deemd to be "unlawful enemy combatants," and not afforded the protections of the III Geneva Convention. The policy, thought not the name, has continued under the Obama Adminstration, and this indeterminate legal status has significantly complicated efforts to try or release them. However, there is an older legal model that may suffice: piracy. (previously [more inside]
"Western culture is Islamically forbidden"
When the car exploded, the same two words occurred to him, and to the ticket taker, and to every other person who saw or heard the blast, which could be heard on the other side of Kano, Nigeria's second largest city: Boko Haram. That neither they, nor practically anyone else in Nigeria, knew what Boko Haram was exactly or why it would want to bomb a bus station was beside the point. Officially, according to the Nigerian government, Boko Haram is a terrorist group. It began life as a separatist movement led by a northern Nigerian Muslim preacher, Mohammed Yusuf, who decried the country's misrule. "Boko Haram" is a combination of the Hausa language and Arabic, understood to mean that Western, or un-Islamic, learning is forbidden. In 2009, after Yusuf was killed [BBC, The Guardian]—executed, it's all but certain, by Nigerian police—his followers vowed revenge.[more inside]
"What does the drone's camera capture, and what does it occlude?"
The Sound of Terror: Phenomenology of a Drone Strike
Opponents of drone strikes say they violate international law and have caused unacknowledged civilian deaths. Proponents insist they actually save the lives of both U.S. soldiers, who would otherwise be deployed in dangerous ground operations, and of civilians, because of the drone's capacity to survey and strike more precisely than combat. If the alternative is a prolonged and messy ground operation, the advantage of drone strikes in terms of casualties is indisputable, and it is not my intention to dispute it here. But the terms of this debate give a one-sided view of both the larger financial and political costs of drones, as well as the less than lethal but nonetheless chronic and intense harm continuous strikes wage on communities.[more inside]
"Jihad Jane"
Jane's Jihad: the new face of terrorism. A Reuters series in four parts.
The case was so serious, authorities said, that they charged the woman, Colleen LaRose, with crimes that could keep her in prison for the rest of her life. Now, as she awaits sentencing, a months-long Reuters review of confidential documents and interviews with sources in Europe and the United States -- including the first and only interview with Jihad Jane herself -- reveals a far less menacing and, in some ways, more preposterous undertaking than what the U.S. government asserted.[more inside]

"Rule 1: Truth and Falsity Do Not Matter"
Frequently dismissed as trivial or unimportant because untrue, rumors are a potent in the information war that characterizes contemporary conflicts, and they participate in significant ways in the struggle for the consent of the governed. As narrative forms, rumors are suitable to a wide range of political expression, from citizens, insurgents, and governments alike. The authors make a compelling argument for understanding rumors in these contexts as "narrative IEDs," low-cost, low-tech weapons that can successfully counter elaborate and expansive government initiatives of outreach campaigns or strategic communication efforts.Narrative Landmines - The Explosive Effects of Rumors in Syria and Insurgencies Around the World [more inside]

'consider the Geneva Conventions against protecting civilians in wartime "no longer relevant."'
Last year, Wired reported that 'The FBI is teaching its counterterrorism agents that "main stream" [sic] American Muslims are likely to be terrorist sympathizers; that the Prophet Mohammed was a "cult leader"; and that the Islamic practice of giving charity is no more than a "funding mechanism for combat."'
