An integrated production and inventory model for a whole manufacturing supply chain involving reverse logistics with finite horizon period
This paper proposes a model and solution method for coordinating integrated production and inventory cycles in a whole manufacturing supply chain involving reverse logistics for multiple items with finite horizon period. A whole manufacturing supply chain involving reverse logistic consists of tier-2 suppliers supplying raw materials to tier-1 suppliers, tier-1 suppliers producing parts, a manufacturer which manufactures and assembles parts from tier-1 suppliers into finished products, distributors distributing finished products to retailers, retailers selling products to end customers and a third party which collects the used finished products from end customers, dissembles collected products into parts, and feed the parts back to the supply chain. In this system, we consider a finite horizon period. A mathematical model for representing the behaviors of the system is developed. Solution methods based on decentralized and a combination of decentralized and centralized decision making process, referred to as the semi-centralized decision making process, are proposed to solve the model while the centralized decision making process is solved by a mixed integer nonlinear programming method. A numerical example is used to demonstrate the model and the solutions based on the three types of the coordination.

If your life revolve around the world of arts and culture, you may have developed your own sense of creativity art – a certain skill or ability that allows you to generate new ideas to make your personal life, and probably professional life, to run better.
So, how is the creative side of yours is related to the artistic involvement or achievement or production? Studies about these have been done and yet further conclusion are far from being implemented – or even completed. When you want to learn more about the outcome of the studies, you need to know more about the concept – at least the basic foundation of it.
Creativity and Art
People always think that creativity and art are deeply related. People who have the gift of arts are often said to have a higher level of creative ability, enabling them to create various different ideas that can be implemented in daily life. However, different people have different concept of creativity. For some, creativity is related to real function and beneficial outcome.
For instance, Steve Jobs and his creative idea of the iPhone is functional for the real life. But when it comes to creativity art, it is restricted to the world of art alone – how to come with a different approach to the painting or how to come with a certain angle for a certain sculpture, and such thing alike.
Which Is Important?
You can't really put a mark or a number to a certain thing. For you, the creativity art may not be important but for others, it is their life – their passion, their source of income, their only interest. Everyone has their own interest in art – no matter how small it is. It is up to you what to do with it – either you want to let it be or you want to develop it..

Then went back to the stable one, updated LP in the market, and still getting the FC's. Anyone else experiencing this and have a solution? I think im gonna give it another day or so and go back to adw for a while

I just updated to 2.2, and have found that the absence of a way to see which apps a) have auto-update enabled and b) can be moved to the sd card but haven't been is rather inconvenient, since after installing a few apps, I find myself having to go through the full list trying to hunt down apps that I missed. So, can anyone suggest an app manager that would allow me to see what apps haven't been moved to the phone, and/or listing the apps that I haven't enabled auto-update on?

Vodafone Mobile Connect (USB) in SUSE 10.2
Hi everyone
I've got one of the new USB Vodafone Mobile connect cards.I used to have the PCMCIA version but my new laptop doesn't have any PCMCIA card slots.
Anyway I can't seem get this to work in SUSE. It's basically a bog standard broadband (fast) modem.
The only way I can get this to work currently is via a WINDOWS Virtual machine running as a Guest under VMWARE. The Kernel didn't need to be re-compiled to recognize this USB device - it's not a disk and doesn't have a file system.
It's a bit silly to have to bring up an entire Windows Virtual Machine just because I need to use Vodafone Mobile Connect on the road.
Before you say why not simply use a WiFI / wireless connection -- please read on.
These type of cards are actually fine since you can use them on the move for example whilst travelling on Trains etc etc. These work wherever a mobile phone service is available. - Wi-FI / wireless access points are fine if you are in a static locataion which isn't always my case - so I'd be out of range after a minute or two and these days a lot of Hotels - especially the better standard ones charge outrageous prices for accessing their WIFI connections so an unlimited subscription to a service like mobile data connect is well worth the money --speed is also around 1.5 MB now so it's fine when travelling.
Similar services are provided by O2 etc etc. I just happen to have VODAFONE but the same should apply to any service provider.
You have to provide some more details.
Does something appear in the system log (accessed by running dmesg or pressing Ctrl-Alt-F10)?
Also the output of the lsusb command after plugging this in would be useful.
Hi there
Thanks for the reply -- I'll post those details later - I'm actually at work in an office today so not using my normal laptop.

Care providers: qualifying care relief: introduction
S803-S828 Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005
You can find simple introductions to qualifying care relief for foster carers and shared lives carers on the HMRC Internet site by searching on 'qualifying care relief', 'foster carers' or 'shared lives carers'. There is also a Tax Return helpsheet for qualifying carers which you can find on the HMRC Internet site by searching on 'HS236'. You may find it helpful to look at these introductions before reading the detailed guidance in this section of the BIM.
A special relief, 'qualifying care relief', is available to individuals who, alone or in partnership, provide:
- foster care (see BIM52755) but not shared lives care (see BIM52758);
- shared lives care but not foster care; or
- both foster care and shared lives care.
Profits made by an individual in a tax year from the provision of qualifying care are deemed to be nil for Income Tax and Class 4 NICs purposes if his or her total receipts from qualifying care do not exceed an individual qualifying amount.
Individuals whose total receipts from qualifying care exceed their qualifying amount can choose between:
- calculating their taxable profits in the normal way on total receipts less actual expenses and capital allowances (the 'profit method'); or
- treating as their taxable profit the amount by which their total receipts from foster care exceed their qualifying amount, without any separate relief for expenses or capital allowances (the 'simplified method').
Whichever method is used, the carer is chargeable to Income Tax and Class 4 NICs on those profits.
In the absence of the relief, profits from qualifying care provision would be chargeable to Income Tax either as the profits of a trade or as miscellaneous income in the normal way.
For calculation of the qualifying amount, see BIM52765.
For information on capital allowances, see BIM52770. The interaction with Capital Gains Tax is described at BIM52770. Shared lives carers for 2009/10 and earlier years
Qualifying care relief applies to shared lives carers only for 2010-11 onwards. However, HMRC operated simplified arrangements for certain shared lives carers for 2003-04 to 2009-10. These arrangements are described at BIM52785 onwards. For 2010-11 only, shared lives carers could choose between the previous arrangements and qualifying care relief.

Anatomy Trains in Structure & Function
In this exciting new and more comprehensive format you will learn about the myofascial tissue and its many roles in the body. Participants will see the fascial tissues in context and how they are interdependent with the other body systems. From there we begin to see how the body incorporates the Anatomy Train Lines to create easy and graceful movement – provided they are in some form of balance and harmony; restriction or weakness in one can have many knock effects.
This is the first workshop to combine Anatomy Trains theory alongside structural and functional anatomy and analysis, blending together the concepts of tensegrity with elastic recoil for movement efficiency. We will address differential diagnosis to help identify for motor control or soft tissue restrictions and where they may be coming from.
This is an exciting and fun workshop delivered with clarity and with your practice in mind – you will have useful and usable skills by the end of the four days.
In the first 2-day section of this workshop we will introduce you to the first four main lines –
Superficial Front and Back, Lateral and Spiral. For each of the lines we will teach you a range of movement assessments and learn the basics of Fascial Release Technique.
The second section will cover the remaining Anatomy Train lines (Deep Front Line, Arm and Functional Lines) and allow deeper exploration of the main concepts behind the whole system – structural and functional analysis and refining fascial touch skills.
Research will be referenced showing the roles of fascia in the body, making this an up to date and highly effective skill-building workshop. This will include a synthesis of Robert Schleip's work on how we can affect the fascia through stimulating different mechanoreceptors. Further, we will draw from the approaches of many other top researchers and practitioners from across the worlds of fascial manipulation and functional anatomy.
Learn to see and correct the myofascial patterns of the body. By gradually building BodyReading skills you will learn to interpret movement and postural patterns. We all want to have a 3-dimensional vision of the body and this workshop is the first step towards establishing those skills for your self.
Strategies – we will teach you to reliably connect with the fascial tissues, the many ways in which you can mobilise them and, most importantly, the reasons why you would do it and when. A range of powerful techniques will be presented in the context of their structural and functional influences making this a unique workshop that will lead you to the deeper skills explored through the rest of the series.
Anatomy Trains is the perfect introduction to myofascial anatomy for any manual therapist. It is also the first essential step along the path to training in Structural Integration with the Anatomy Trains protocol.
Whilst primarily aimed at manual therapists, many movement therapists have also attended the workshop. Functional movement assessments are included within the class alongside standing and table based manual therapy. It therefore gives a range of skills and a new vocabulary to practitioners of various disciplines. The manual therapy and BodyReading elements require some degree of disrobing which is done discreetly and no-one is forced to any level beyond their comfort.
Touch skills are a major focus of the workshop. While they might not be a normal part of the movement therapist's repertoire we do encourage full participation as they also give palpation skills and understanding. These are skills that can further assist visual assessment and movement prescription.
Fascial Release for Structural Balance –Train with us in Structural Bodywork
The FRSB series of workshops will give you the latest research information and put it in a useable context, making sure that we can be maximally effective in our application of fascial release. The world of myofascial anatomy is quickly expanding and we aim to keep you up to date if not ahead of the curve!
Our aim is to give you a complete and up to date approach to manual health care. Based on sound anatomy we will look at both Structural and Functional aspects of the body and build to a holistic combined approach.
This totally new, comprehensive and expertly delivered series of workshops will give you the skills to confidently perform a transforming series of sessions for your clients that will enhance their posture and their movement abilities.
Based on the recently released book of the same title, the Fascial Release for Structural Balance (FRSB) series is a short intensive course limited to specific anatomy and heavy on manual soft-tissue technique. Each course focuses on 15 – 20 core 'templates' for technique, which can be applied in different ways for different patterns in your clients. We will teach you the relevant structural anatomy for the area and the common postural and movement implications around each of them. The short lectures utilize many new and previously unseen teaching resources to illustrate the information in a fun, exciting and, most importantly, understandable fashion.
The courses fully explain the intent and scope of each technique and will give you plenty of time to master it and experiment with the many possible variations. We will ensure that you can apply these very effective ideas and execute them in your treatments the following day.
The workshops can be taken in any order once you have first attended the Anatomy Trains in Structure & Function workshops but we recommend them in the order they appear.
For more information on the FRSB series click here…
Train with us in Structural Integration
Completion of the FRSB series and the Structural Bodywork Certification Module allows you to progress to our flagship training in Structural Integration – Kinesis Myofascial Integration (KMI). in this module you can learn Tom Myer's adaptation of the work he learned directly from Dr Rolf and in which he has added the understanding of the Anatomy Trains map. Tom's KMI approach brings a modern flavour to the deep, transformational approach developed by his mentor Dr Rolf.

Aims & Objectives
This project is aimed at developing strategies to help conserve elephants, leopards and other wildlife in their natural habitats in the surrounding area and also to be actively involved in helping the local community.
Om du vill göra en bokning för fler personer, vänligen kontakta någon av våra resesäljare som kan hjälpa dig med din bokning.
The Wild Elephant Experience program is a 4-week program where you will spend 3 weeks observing and documenting the activities of wild elephants in Sri Lanka and the fourth week will be at a turtle conservation project, looking after endangered sea turtles that are unable to survive in the wild due to illness, injuries etc. and on your fourth week you will have an opportunity live by the blue ocean and take part in turtle rehabilitation.The Wild Elephant Experience program works together with the Sri Lanka Wildlife Conservation Society. You will spend 3 weeks in Wasgamuwa National Park observing and researching the behavior of wild elephants, assessing human - elephant conflicts, biodiversity mapping using surveying techniques, community integrated human elephant conflict resolution, monitoring electric fences and early alert systems and sustainable rural livelihood development. Participants also learn about using GPS, remote sensing and GIS techniques to develop conservation strategies to help conserve elephants, leopards, other wildlife and their habitats in the Central and North Central Provinces of Sri Lanka. The 4th week of the project will be spent at our Turtle Conservation project at Ambalangoda. This project rescues and rehabilitates endangered sea turtles and also aids nesting and carries out other conservation related activities.
This project is aimed at developing strategies to help conserve elephants, leopards and other wildlife in their natural habitats in the surrounding area and also to be actively involved in helping the local community.
This place is an awarding winning conservation project which has done great work in dealing with elephant/human conflict. As a volunteer you are involved in a variety of different conservation activities and get to stay in a beautiful location in the central hill country. Early mornings can be spent bird watching, recording the different species in the area. You will also be tracking the routes and movements of wild elephant herds, searching for signs of leopards and sloth bears, as well as other mammals and recording your findings so the project can add the information to its database.
In the afternoons you will spend time up a tree house waiting for the elephants to come out of the forest and watching them head to their favourite lake. The project also does some great community work with some of the local schools. This project is making a real change and helping to preserve Sri Lanka's rich biodiversity.
If you arrive on Sunday on time, you will be transferred to Wasgamuwa on the same day. If not, you will arrive at our accommodation in Kandy from the airport and relax.
Monday (Week 1 only):

Hey all,
... been looking for a good local source for hard spring wheat in bulk. It's been a long while since I've bought any bread (I think I'm coming up on my two year anniversary) but I just got a flour mill and I've been dieing to get it into play. All I've found are these little 500g bags in the various 'hippie food' stores that seem to be really really overpriced.
any hounds with a snoot for whole grains?

Winner of the 2007 Wesley-Logan Prize of the American Historical Association, this acclaimed volume tells the moving story of the last recorded group of Africans deported to the United States as slavesmore than fifty years after the United States abolished the international slave trade. Sylviane A. Diouf reconstructs the lives of 110 men, women, and children from Benin and Nigeria who were brought ashore in Alabama in 1860 under cover of night, recounting their capture and passage in the slave pen in Ouidah, and describing their experience of slavery alongside American-born enslaved men and women. After emancipation, the group reunited from various plantations, bought land, and founded their own settlement, known as African Town. They ruled it according to customary African laws, spoke their own regional language and, when giving interviews, insisted that writers use their African names so that their families would know that they were still alive. African Town is still home to a community of Clotilda descendants.
Diouf immerses the reader in the diversity and complexity of Africa.... The narrative is patient, disciplined, compelling, and brave, never shying away from the central role that Africans played in the enslavement of other Africans.... One puts down this compelling book convinced both of the significance of the Africans at the center of it, and that Diouf has given us a superb history.

The Vision
My vision is to spread a message of hope and love to the world through the art of music. It is why I was born and it is what drives me each and every day to give all.
My hope is that as I cast my vision to others, they will rise up and join with me to help me take my music and its message across every continent. I am not concerned about one's skin color, religious faith or political views. I am a minstrel, a messenger, a warrior of light.
Each person who reads this has the power to help and to be part of the vision. How? Take a few minutes to listen to my songs, if they touch you, share them with others. "Play it forward". It's that simple. Like them on Facebook, email the mp3's to your friends, burn a CD and give it to someone you think will appreciate it, share my web address NikoOnline.com with as many people as possible, that's how it happens. One tells another who tells another…and the next thing you know it will spread across each continent. I do not seek fame or glory or power or riches, I seek purpose and destiny, I seek to make a positive difference in this world.
I do not have the backing of a major record label, but people everywhere are showing me that it is possible for my music to spread at an exponential rate simply through word of mouth. Radio and TV are no longer in control, no longer dictating what is hip and relevant, what will and will not be heard. Rules are not just being bent, they are being broken! A new genre is emerging and it's called "UNCLASSIFIABLE". A new breed of artists are rising up, questioning things, pioneering a fresh and new path! Artists like myself no longer have to bow down to the rules and regulations of the "industry". Each of us make our own rules, they are called Truth, they are called Heart and Soul, they are called Inspiration, they are called Passion and Honesty, they are called Being True To One's Self! It's the New Millennium and its time for the Warriors of the New Millennium to rise up and BE!
The vision I carry within myself is not just "Niko's" vision, it's the vision of MANY. And that is why we started the Street Team. The Street Team is a group of volunteers joining with us to help make a positive difference in the world through spreading our music and its message. When you sign up, we'll give you access to all kinds of promotional tools such as web banners, flyers, widgets (streaming music players, slideshows, etc.), ideas on how you can help spread the word through social networks (myspace, bebo, facebook, etc.) and much more! As a member, you'll get special privileges like free access to new songs, you'll be the first to know about TV appearances, tour dates and more. We consider each Street Team member an extension of our team and we do all that we can to show our gratitude. Sign up today!

Jesus Luz, Madonna's Boyfriend, Flashes Pubic Hair, Talks Career
Posted: 01-14-10 01:07 PM
Filed by Katherine Thomson
Madonna's boyfriend Jesus Luz got a photo spread and Q&A with Interview magazine. Despite only being famous because he's Madonna's boyfriend, the topic of Madonna was off-limits for the interviewer.
The Brazilian-born Luz filled time saying he likes New York's energy and is growing as a DJ. He likes DJ-ing, he says, because "I like to be a channel of music, to give people music to dance to, to see the reactions of people when I use effects."
When the phone interview ends (cut short by the arrival of Luz's Kabbalah teacher) he has just said he also wants to be an actor.
The interview may be G-rated and boring, but Luz made up for it in the photos. He wore leather pants for some photos and is naked in another. He never goes full monty, but was does show off his waxed chest and pubic hair.
So if you ever wonder part of what Madonna sees in her 23-year-old boyfriend, scroll down and see more here.

Drake Previews Yet Another New Song in London
I feel like Drake has been in the UK for 6 months at this point, but apparently, it has only been like 3 weeks. In any event, a new week brings a new More Life snippet. Here he is at Paper Soho in London last night playing something new for the crowd. He also hit XOYO and ended up taking the stage for a quick performance of "Energy" with Skepta and Giggs during a set by Smoke Dawg and Nafe Smalls.
Watch both below.

The term locket refers to a pendant or medallion that opens to reveal two halves called wings. Some lockets feature small frames and glass or plastic panels behind which many people place photographs. Others are used to store keepsakes such as a lock of hair belonging to a loved one. Lockets are most often worn on a chain around the neck, but can also be part of a key chain or bracelet. It is important to familiarize yourself with the proper technique for opening these fragile accessories, particularly antique ones.
Step 1
Place the edge of your fingernail into the space between the two wings.
Step 2
Move your nail back and forth until the latch opens, causing the wings to come apart.
Step 3
Pull apart the wings of a stubborn locket gently with a small flathead screwdriver, similar to those used for repairing eyeglasses.

Kansas Spent $17M on Technology Project before Outsourcing
Associated Press - December 9, 2016 1:14 pm
The administration of Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback spent $17 million on resolving technology needs in-house before outsourcing the effort to a company in another state.
Chief information technology officer Phil Wittmer told The Topeka Capital-Journal that the in-house project was too expensive and would have cost $50 million to complete.
The state is retiring its IBM mainframe used by four major agencies. In September, Kansas reached a five-year, $14 million deal with Illinois-based Ensono to replace the mainframe.
Department of Administration spokesman John Milburn declined to answer questions on why the project was initially approved, where the equipment for the project is being stored and whether any of the $17 million can be recouped.
Once again the Brownback administration shrugs off transparency and fails to answer public record information.
I ask again..when are the people of Kansas going to tire of these tactics and start impeachment proceedings ?

If you've heard of the conspiracy theory documentary movie about 9/11 called Loose Change then you'll see why this video is cleverly (and punnily) called Luke's Change. It is a revealing documentary that blows the lid off an intergalactic cover-up larger than the smuggling ring involving the spice mine of Kessel, the Kessel Cover-up. Of course, like many of the truths we cling to, it will depend greatly on your own point of view.
Was the destruction of the Death Star an inside job? Watch and decide for yourself:

It's at Showbox at the Market (1426 1st Avenue)—from 4:30 p.m. until whenever it's over—which means those other folks should move their election night parties to other nights. We chose this night first.

Holmewood 129 all out, Trentside 76 all out
Holmewood lost the toss and were asked to take first knock on a pitch that was surprisingly dry following incessant rain.
The ball was not coming onto the bat, however, and Holmewood lost 2 very early wickets as openers Ashley and Fisher were back in the pavilion with only 11 on the board.
Skipper Phil Stone and Matt Ryalls set about steadying the ship and although they didn't score quickly, they did not look in any trouble.
Ryalls despatched a six in consecutive overs from Rasburn, however, the bowler was to gain revenge when Ryalls played too early at a slower ball and was caught by keeper Collins for 21.
Slater was out shortly after for 3, caught Moran bowled Liversidge, to bring Gavin Horton to the crease to join his captain.
They took the score to 81 when Stone was caught at gully for 26 from another ball that popped up on the green wicket.
Because of the uncertain wicket, Horton was having to restrain his normal cavalier style and showed that he has more to his game that hard hitting. He found the perfect foil in stalwart David Gary and together they took the score past the 100 mark.
With the score on 106, however, Gray was caught just inside the boundary for 16. Jamie Horton joined his twin brother but did not trouble the scorers having been yorked by Liversidge and, shortly after Gavin was out to the same bowler for a hard earned 30. Holmewood stuttered to 129 when they lost their last wicket when last man Blair was out first ball.
With such a low score, it was evident that the home side needed to hold on to any chances that came their way.
Trentside made a cautious start and had luck on their side when Ayling was dropped in the 4th over. Holmewood did, however, get an early breakthrough when keeper Ashley caught Ayling out for 6 bowled by Jamie Horton.
Trentside started to score more freely, however, Holmewood got a vital breakthrough when Tom Taylor removed Ben Liversidge (11), caught behind to give Ashley his 2nd catch. 3 balls later Taylor bowled new batsman Mansoor for nought.
Holmewood kept the pressure on and in the next over, Jamie Horton removed Tom Liversidge as Trentside found themselves in trouble on 25 for 4.
They scored a further 16 runs as they moved slowly, but closer, to their target. In the 17th over of the game, proceedings took a dramatic twist as Jamie Horton took the wickets of Collins, Tivey and Moran in successive balls to reward him with the 3rd hat trick of this career.
In the next over, Taylor had Ayles LBW for 6 with Trentside reeling on 41 for 8. The Trentside tail were to frustrate the Holmewood bowlers for the next 12 overs as the scoreboard ticked over but the home side desperately needed a victory given their League position. Fortunately, however, they picked up wickets in consecutive overs to gain victory by 53 runs.
For Holmewood, Tom Taylor returned figures of 3-27 from 11 overs and Jamie Horton completed a magnificent spell of bowling, returning figures of 12 overs, 4 maidens, 5 wickets for only 23 runs.

District of Columbia residents voted last November to legalize the drug, but Congress put language in its budget to block funding for its regulation, setting up a host of challenges.

RIO RANCHO, N.M. (KRQE) – A group of Rio Rancho special need students got some special attention from therapy horses as part of a program to help them feel just like everyone else.
"Horse therapy is very therapeutic for our students with special needs. It also provides an opportunity for all students to come together and have something in common to do," said Ben Vigil, a special education teacher for Rio Rancho Public Schools.
Anya Hinkle is a sophomore at Cleveland High School. She has autism, but being around horses her entire life makes her forget about her troubles.
"They help me calm down by like sniffing me, or like playing with me," she said.
These therapy horses are part of the Rio Rancho Inclusive Adventures Grant. A program designed to help students feel like they can blend in with their peers.
"We just want to give these guys some opportunities to fit in just like everybody else," said Vigil.
For Anya, the inclusion isn't only exclusive to humans.
"They're animals and they have like life like us," she said.
Vigil says even though the goal of the program is to make students feel included, it's a great feeling to see his students find something to be excited about again.
"Really brings out her self confidence. She's found something she's passionate about."
The grant included $94,000 to help fund these monthly activities. Next month, they plan on learning how to cook.

Nice and clean and cozy inside. Comfortable beds, nice furnishings and I liked that they left necessity items like coffee , tea, spices for cooking , a little bit of dish soap and laundry detergent to start off. Nice tv and cable. The downside of it was the backyard. It was very rough full off old rotting fruit from unmanaged trees, leaves and all sandy twigs and prickly things that were brought in each time. There was a horrible amount of bugs crawling all over the back door, infested that you had to clear it off before opening it to go in because they did come in if you weren't careful. The garage was good but alarm system should have code. Also a land line phone was necessary even if it would be added to price. Lastly the renter was not accessible which was annoying.
We spent 2 weeks in this house, enjoying every minute. The house was very clean, everything we needed was there. We did some cooking there, but we also enjoyed some of the nearby restaurants. Lots of shopping areas to choose from. The fenced in back yard was perfect for our dog. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, great for walking your dog. Just a great place to stay, we hope to get back again! Thank you Joanne.
When we arrived at the property I was surprised at the size of it. The website states it is 1200 sq. ft. we measured and it came up shy of 800 sq ft. This home would not be bad if only traveling with two people any more it just isn't comfortable except in the dining room (4 people). I typically don't like to write a poor review but we had to sleep on the sleeper sofa two nights and there are no window coverings on the door in that room & when the couch it opened up goes all the way to the fireplace. The carpets in the bedroom were very stained and need replaced. On a good note the kitchen was well stocked & clean. Probably what bothered us the most, other than the lack of room was how bad the neighborhood was run down. We were scheduled to stay here for two weeks but able to find someone else to rent from in the Spring Hill area for 10 of the 14 days. Wasn't happy about having to spend double the money but we had two different couples coming to spend time with us and there was no way we could have been comfortable here.
This is a really nice rental for such a reasonable price. Home is really cute, nicely furnished and in a great location close to everything. The owners have taken special care in providing excellent quality linens, towels even dinnerware. Home was stocked really well with everything you would need (even a juicer for all the fruit trees out back). Our dog thoroughly enjoyed the large fenced yard. We added a day to the beginning of our stay at the last minute without any problems (thank you Joanne) We highly recommend this home and hope it is available next time we are in!
Joanne was overly accommodating during the booking process! House was extremely clean. Pantry has every little thing you need, down to creamer for your morning coffee! Very nice linens! (I ordered some for my own home after using them). Secure fence for our dog to roam. Very reasonable pet fee. Close to beautiful Weeki Wachee Springs, Rogers Park & Pine Island.
The property is well appointed and lived up to its description and photos. The home is located near shopping and activities. The neighborhood is nice for walks. Joanne and Ron were quick to handle any questions or concerns I had.

Collaboration and democracy
The shift towards long-distance collaboration in the design and production of goods and services is helping shape the future of democracy. Some corporations recognise that old hierarchies aren't working. Sometimes they even mandate that their subordinate units break with old practices. The irony! "I demand that you all start disregarding hierarchy immediately!!" The trouble is, any structure in which most individuals are inaccessible to others is going to be inefficient in turbulent times. As Charles Handy said 5 years ago, 'Hierarchy, generally, is losing its legitimacy while partnership is in... Read The Rest →

I had a big guacamole craving tonight and whipped up a quick batch to share with my SO while we indulged in a few hours of Thursday night football. Somehow over the course of the day the entire bowl mysteriously disappeared, and now SO is wondering where all the amazing guacamole I was raving about is. Anyone else have a crazy addiction to guacamole? Once you start, you just can't stop.
head hanging in shame - entire bowl of guacamole in my happy tummy
