Microsoft Unveils Project Natal, Controller Free Gaming (video)
We've seen a fair amount of controller free products (here and here and here) to hit the concept market, but none have displayed such a full fledged interactive experience as Microsoft's just announced project Natal (that's as in 'not at all'). The video below depicts all the different options in a rather compelling way, but to sum it up in a nutshell: project Nutal is a 3D sensing camera that can detect your movements and voice, which are then reflected in the game – no controller is needed. The system appears to be a small box that sits just below your TV and uses facial recognition to sign you into your Xbox live account. It's difficult to tell how accurate or responsive it is, but this will definitely take some of the wind out of Nintendo's sail, that is assuming it can live up to all the hype. Rumor has it that it will cost $200 and there is no word on a release date. Video below.

And Be mostly succeeds in its balance of commerce and conscience themes, although it's less exciting than the try-anything, College Dropout-like triumph it might have been. Unfair as it is to compare the two albums, Be labors under an audible pressure not to offend: The soul samples and riffs are warm, inviting, and too often predictable. The title track, the lovely, propulsive "Go," and "Real People," which sounds like the group Chicago, are the standouts among a batch of very low-key West productions. Thankfully, Common himself doesn't seem affected by his sometimes bland backing; the conflation of religious and romantic love on "Faithful" and the courtroom tension of "Testify" make highlights out of merely okay jams, and -- now that he's shed his habit of proselytizing -- his uncommonly strong rhymes have never sounded stronger.

It would seem state officials' educational cuts are steering Georgia's university system into a rather perilous conundrum.
The past week you would have thought we were living in two different states. North of the Gnat Line, it seemed like Siberia. Even possums and yard dogs were hugging each other trying to stay warm.

Now, with all of that saved money off limits, hundreds less per paycheck, and the increased expense of feeding a full grown man, we just don't have quite as much fun money as we once did.
When we were young, most everything was good. We made it out of high school and many of us went on to college, trade school, the military, the work force or maybe even hitchhiked across the country.

It is more of a blessing to give than to receive. We all probably were told this when we were kids. The interesting thing is that our parents and Sunday school teachers were right! A host of scientific studies conducted have shown that altruism actually does wonders for your health and soul.

Man Who Accused Elmo Puppeteer Identified, His Criminal Record Uncovered
The man who accused Elmo puppeteer Kevin Clash of having a sexual relationship with him when he was a minor has been identified, and he has a rap sheet of his own.
Sheldon Stephens, a 24-year-old aspiring model and actor, has been named by The Smoking Gun as the anonymous man who claimed Monday he'd had sex with Clash at the age of 16. He since has recanted those allegations, saying Tuesday he was of legal age when the relationship happened.
STORY: Elmo Puppeteer Kevin Clash 'Relieved' After Accuser Recants
On his Twitter account biography, Stephens describes himself as an "Entrepreneur, Student, Model, Actor." According to one of his friends, Stephens "attracts these high-powered men" and is a "God-fearing guy" and "not just a pretty boy."
Stephens, a resident of Harrisburg, Pa., ran afoul of the law in 2009 when he was accused of robbing $250,000 worth of jewelry from his former boss at knife point after he had been fired from an internship.
Music manager Darian Pollard reported to the Beverly Hills Police Department that his former intern had stolen "white gold necklace with diamonds" and a "white gold ring with diamond baguettes," before hopping on a flight from Los Angeles to Pennsylvania.
Harris was arrested at the airport in Pennsylvania, wearing the jewelry. Although a Beverly Hills detective told Pennsylvania authorities charges would be filed in California, it seems they never were. Charges were dropped against Stephens in his home state two weeks after his airport arrest.
According to The Smoking Gun, his other legal troubles include pleading guilty to reckless driving in May and passing a bad check last year, though that charge was dismissed after he made good with the Harrisburg business he'd written the check at.
Stephens' resume includes several internships as well as employment at a few New York clothing stores.
STORY: 'Sesame Street' Puppeteer Kevin Clash Takes Leave of Absence Amid Underage Sex Allegations
He lives with his mother, 48-year-old Felicia Stephens, in her Harrisburg apartment.
His mother has had her own legal troubles. She was charged with attempted murder in March after allegedly stabbing her husband with scissors. She is out on bail and is due in court next month, where she also faces a felony aggravated assault charge.
On Tuesday, after the allegations against Clash were recanted, the longtime Sesame Street puppeteer issued a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, saying: "I am relieved that this painful allegation has been put to rest. I will not discuss it further."

2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser Tail Light Assembly
the part was delivered promptly,was what was needed, saved me from paying way too much at the dealer. Thank you for a great product!
The local parts stores had been giving us a hard time about replacement tail lights. They would be $60 each if they could get them in stock so we said ok. Left and right are cracked my daughter got a warning ticket how soon can you get them? Well we don't know it depends on when our main warehouse gets a set in stock. So my husband says look...we will prepay so you can order them. Oh we can't do that y'all just keep checking back with us. At any rate this dragged along about 3 months and I got mad one day and said I'm going online. I found parts geek I ordered both left and right rear lights plus shipping for less than the local parts guy would have sold it if he'd ever got it in stock. The lights arrived within 3 days, husband popped them right in and they are perfect no fuss no muss no bother.
After much frustration dealing with our local parts house I went online and found parts geek. The cost of replacement tail lights plus shipping was a few dollars less than local plus they arrived within 3 days. They are perfect. Husband popped 'em in they work like a charm. Thanks parts geek :)
Ordered part, and received it a few days later. Very prompt service. The tail light installed perfectly, and is identical to the original factory part. Very Satisfied!
This site is super easy to use!!! The part arrived quickly even though it was during the holidays and the price was at least a third of that at the dealership😃
Arrived when expected and was suprised that it was not just the lens but also the bulb plugs!

A collection of design patterns was described by E. Gamma et al. (1994). Each pattern ensures that a certain system aspect can vary over time, for example the operations that can be applied to an object or the algorithm of a method. The patterns are described by constructs such as the inheritance and reference relations, attempting to emulate more dynamic relationships. As a result, the design patterns demonstrate how awkward it is to program natural concepts of evolution when using a traditional object oriented language. We present a new relation between classes: the context relation. It directly models dynamic evolution, and it is meaningful at both the design and implementation level. At the design level we extend the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to include the context relation as a new form of arrow between classes. At the implementation level we present a small extension of Java. The context relation introduces a new form of dynamic binding that serves as a replacement to delegation. We demonstrate how the context relation can be used to easily model and program numerous design patterns

Hey guys
I've had my 2nd IPA bottles for 2 weeks now and I still have no carbonation. I added 2 cups of water and 4 oz of priming sugar and boiled for 10 min then added to the wort. When I tip over the bottles I see bubbles going through the beer and what not but still no carbonation after I open it.
Gravity is at 1.070 with a pre bottle gravity of 1.015
My last ipa with the same yeast and similar gravity carbed in less than 2 weeks. Do you think this will be a batch I have to dump? Thanks for the help
What was the final volume of your beer? Perhaps you didn't add enough priming sugar? Also, what temp have your bottles been at during this two weeks? In my earlier brewing days, I made the mistake of putting my bottles in the fridge right after bottling. The yeast deactivated and the beers were flat.
Also, I would just drink the flat beer or give it more time before dumping it!
Give it more time. The rule of thumb is 3 weeks at 70 degrees.
Was there a long fermentation or dry hop period? I know my beers, if they are in the fermenter for 2 months or more, I have to add 1/4 to 1/2 half of a vial of yeast to the bottling bucket so the priming sugar has yeast to eat. Saying that, give it another week or 2 as 2 weeks is not enough time.

"They matched my invitation color without me even asking. WPDs gave me options on this 1. The original colors 2. The colors of my invitation. The crystal lined envelopes cannot be imprinted with a return address so these worked out perfectly and saved wetting the back of all those envelopes!"
"We ordered these address labels in "Taffy" for our RSVP's. When they came they looked so fantastic! They made an otherwise plain envelope look classy with a nice pop of something extra! If I need any more, I would definitely order these again!"
"These are very nice and I recieved a number of compliments on them. The size is just a bit larger than I expected, but the color is clear and the quailty of the paper is very nice. Would definitely recommend to a friend."
"We had off-white/ivory envelopes so we went with the black version of this design. Labels were beautiful when they arrived. The label isn't very thick, so I lined up the horizontal line w the edge of our envelope flap (standard style) so it wouldn't crease the label. Had to use caution when removing from sheet so they wouldn't wrinkle. Printing came out really well, white letters on black background was still clear. Also, labels were cut properly (except for 1 or 2 sheets that were slightly not centered)."
"I have ordered wedding shower invitations, save the date magnets, address label's, thank you cards and many samples of wedding invitations. I have been extremely satisfied with everything I have purchased."

Design the Enterprise F? Not if you live outside the U.S.
Was anyone else really annoyed to read in "Ask Cryptic" that the up coming contest "Design the Enterprise F" will probably only be open to the U.S.? :mad:
Not saying that I don't expect some great designs from across the pond but what about the Star Trek fans OUTSIDE the U.S.?! :rolleyes:
I've been drawing up rough designs since I read about the contest (waiting to see exactly what format Cryptic wants it submitted in) wasted time now. That aside I've seen quite a few epic designs from the people in the UK, German, Italy etc which will never see the light of day due to something as stupid as Tax. :(
While a new Laptop would be nice I for one would be gladly give it up if there was a remote chance that I could design the Enterprise F... Especially if it (somehow) became canon at some point.
I'm sure there are a few others that would forgo the prizes just to have their name attached to an official Enterprise/ship design. :)
Yes, I totally agree it's unfortunate and downright silly to not allow ANY features available in the US abroad, much less just designing a ship (for the record, I'm American). Corporate laws don't want to concede, which is to be expected, but when it affects the content of a major international release that's quite unacceptable. This game is sold in other countries; it should therefore be sold with all components intact, no if's, and's or but's. You are justified in your concern.
First, keep in mind that the Ent F isn't Cryptic's contest. Cryptic is just going along with the contest and agreeing to add the winner to the game as the Ent F. Second, contests like this are considered pyramid schemes in some countries and subject to criminal actions against those who hold them.
yeah, it's totally unfortunate for those outside the U.S, but trying to get the contest through the intensely thick cobwebs of international law would be way more than Cryptic could afford/handle, so sadly there's nothing they can do about it :(
and for those who are saying 'screw the rules' despite what Cryptic has said, would you rather STO's develepment come to a halt for years while they sort through the mess? :rolleyes: yes it would be an honor to have your name next to the newest Enterprise, but I don't think even that is worth it
Not really as I knew that it wouldn't be a game playable outside of the USA due to legalease and other international trade restrictions. What can one do? Demand Cryptic change the laws? Hardly a realistic approach.
Yeah, it's really unfortunate and totally Cryptic's fault that they have neither the legal staff nor the resources to research the laws of all 200+ countries on this planet and then pay the correct fees/taxes/bribes necessary to run this contest (that they're not even running) in every single country in the world.
Oh and by the way, there has already been at least one dev post that explained this. So by all means, let's start a couple hundred more threads about this same subject and blame Cryptic once again for something they have no control over. :D
They could always offer the prizes to charity to enable it to be done outside of the US.
Kinda like people asking for rewards for Foundry authors for their work.
And it might still not be legal in every country.
I don't mind letting the US have the Ent-F contest; but it would be kinda cool if this were followed up with more generic 'design a starship' contests for other parts of the world.
Which means I will never be able to design a ship for this game.

A terrific spot and being brand-new, it fills a huge void in Bellingham's hotel choices. High quality, new of course (as mentioned), full service and with amenities - it is almost a destination for this town all in itself. Marriott always does well with all of their levels of hotels and different names/styles.
Rooms are oversized, and nice that they have two separate, partial bathrooms: one with large shower (only; no tub folks) and main sink/vanity contained in one side, and the other section with a toilet and extra small sink. Large living room area, with glass enclosed desk & with full floor-to-ceiling frosted glass makes a nice natural & useable partition to the bedroom area. A small bar/countertop with bar fridge beneath is in a corner that provides added usefulness and useable space.
Large fitness room with all new equipment looks onto a large L-shaped pool across a glass enclosed hallway. The pool is typically outrageously shallow (between 3 - 5 or so ft in sections throughout), so fantastic for families with little kids but only just barely useable for brief laps or a proper swim if no one is around. But this is typical nowadays so not a surprise. Hot tub adjacent too.
Friendly staff run the huge lobby and overall area. Part of this is a breakfast nook in mornings beneath interesting B&W photos of the area, and the free/included breakfast is elaborate (some hot items like eggs & gruel, cheap self-making waffle station, along with other quick & easy continental items). Another corner makes for a bar set-up and kind-of bistro by evenings, which all looks gleaming & chrome & spotless (& stylish) being so brand-new - not a free manager's reception or anything but an actual working bar with food to order for cost. Still, this almost seemed like the place to be lately in Bellingham and appears to attract even the locals... though also great for Groups visiting the hotel.
The only thing unfortunate about this impressive new hotel is the location, though it's not all bad: people staying will almost always be driving, and America is a car-culture place! Lots of parking out front too. Though it is a bit odd - away from the centre of town, and close to popular Bellis Fair Mall, yet not quite walkably handy to it (about a mile away).
Interesting that a long-stay TownePlace Suites (also by Marriott) will be constructed right next door soon! In total, a big gain for Bellingham - a slightly undiscovered and charming large town in its own right.

Fantasy Forecaster: Nov. 12-18
Updated: November 10, 2012, 1:24 PM ETBy Neil Tardy | Special to ESPN.com
It's somewhat more common than an eclipse, and it's OK to stare at. For the first time in the 2012-13 NBA season, a team is heading into a week of five games in seven days. For fantasy hoops owners, the Boston Celtics are that very special team in Week 3.
Well, it's somewhat special. Over the course of an NBA season, probably every team will play five times in seven days at some point. It's just unusual when these weekly scheduling chunks fall in line with the Monday-to-Sunday time ...

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Pay to pay? No way, says MP
OTTAWA -- Making people "pay to pay" is unfair and needs to be stopped, the federal Opposition said Wednesday, urging the Harper government to ban companies from charging fees for sending monthly bills by mail.
A number of telephone, Internet and other firms have recently begun charging customers fees if they want paper bills delivered.
"Making folks pay to pay" is a cash cow that needs to be put down, said New Democrat MP Andrew Cash.
"It isn't as though these companies are offering a new service for this," Cash told a news conference.
"This is a new fee for an old service. It isn't fair."
Bell, for example, says it charges $2 to offset the costs of producing and mailing a printed bill. There is no charge for getting a bill via the Internet.
"You can save paper and save yourself the $2 charge each month by signing up for e-bill service," Bell says on its website.
Rogers Inc. also charges a $2 fee.
Cash said the "pay-to-pay" fees unfairly target seniors and families already struggling to pay their bills, as well as those who do not have regular access to the Internet or don't like paying bills online.
And he said the companies reap huge savings already from customers who have voluntarily switched to online billing.
"(Consumers are losing) millions and millions of dollars, not for any new service, but simply to continue to pay the way many Canadians have always paid," he said.
The Canadian Association of Retired Persons, CARP, has received hundreds of calls and emails about the fees charged by utilities and even some banks.

Wars Of Latin America, 1899-1941 is a scholarly survey of turbulent conflict in Latin America during an era when border quarrels and domestic insurrections marked the difficult transition of nations from agrarian to industrial societies. Chapters discuss the war between Panama and Costa Rica; U.S. occupations of Cuba; Mexico's internal strife; the U.S.'s efforts against Pancho Villa; the phases of the Chaco War; the war between Peru and Colombia; the war between Peru and Ecuador; and much more. Black-and-white photographs illustrate the descriptive text, which tells of jungles, mountains, and deserts that were as deadly as any opposing force. A scrupulous and highly recommended text for college library and world history shelves.

I discovered airbnb in August of last year, as a traveller in the US, and love the opportunity it gives, as a host, to meet the widest range of people, with all sorts of interests and profiles. Madrid is a great place for a holiday - it can be as relaxed (all-day tapas, siestas) or as lively (bars & clubs everywhere, except for my street fortunately) and as cultural (I'm really close to the 4 major galleries) as you like. And for football aficionados, well, it's obvious! I would be delighted to give as much or as little guidance as you want to have. Come & stay!

Muammar Gaddafi Death End of a Nasty Era [GRAPHIC PHOTO]
Ronald Reagan was our president through my high school and college years. In terms of foreign policy, his first term could partially be described as "Reagan vs. Brezhnev." In fact, his fiery exchanges with the Russian leader created fears of a nuclear war, similar to those in the 60s. The TV-movie "The Day After" exemplified such concerns. In his second term, it became "Reagan vs. Gaddafi." And now, it's "Nobody vs. Gaddafi." The long-time Libyan dictator is dead.

February 14 – Valentine's Day – brought several hundred prospective students and their families to campus for our Early Admission Open House. As I contemplated my remarks late last week, I was struck by Cupid's arrow with a bit of inspiration…
Applying to college can be a lot like dating.
Somehow you found us – maybe it was a picture, or something you read. Perhaps somebody introduced you to us.
And after a bit of careful consideration – maybe you talked with your parents and with your friends – you decided that you were interested in a serious relationship with us.
So you wrote us a love letter. And you told us that you wanted this relationship. You told us a lot about yourself.
And then we wrote you back with some good news.
But the decision in front of you can be tough. We know you're seeing other people right now. You probably have dates with some of our friends in Worcester, or Easton, or Winooski…
So the next step in our relationship is to invite you to meet our family.
We're thrilled that you are considering Saint Anselm College, and appreciate that you have brought your family to meet ours.
Now you have the opportunity to meet our students, faculty, and staff, and some of our alumni. You may fall in love with this place, with our Anselmian community, with the people who live and work and study here. I hope you do.
You may fall in love with an academic program, a service opportunity, the arts, athletics, or politics. Perhaps you will fall in love with the food, our beautiful campus, or an upperclassman who you walk by on a tour.
There is much to love about Saint Anselm College.
I certainly hope that every applicant finds something to love here. For so many of our students and alumni, this campus becomes more than a four-year date, it turns into a lifetime of love for the Hilltop, and the friends, and memories that they make here.
To all of our admitted students, and to your families, I wish you the best as you make your final decisions. I hope to see many of you in August at New Student Orientation.

Anderson regrets blasting Browns fans
Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Derek Anderson says he regrets statements he made blasting Browns fans following his release from the team on Tuesday.
A Tough Town For QBs
Derek Anderson's comments point to two things that are true in Cleveland, writes James Walker. Browns fans are frustrated. And they're often smitten with the quarterback holding the clipboard. Blog
On Tuesday, the Browns released Anderson, a former Pro Bowl quarterback, after five years in Cleveland, as the team decided to cast its lot with Brady Quinn and avoid paying Anderson a $2 million roster bonus and a $7.45 million salary in 2010.
The move came just one day after the team acquired Seneca Wallace in a trade with the Seattle Seahawks.
Following his release, Anderson lashed out at Browns fans in an e-mail to the Willoughby News-Herald.
"The fans are ruthless and don't deserve a winner," Anderson said in the e-mail Tuesday. "I will never forget getting cheered when I was injured.
"I know at times I wasn't great. I hope and pray I'm playing when my team comes to town and [we] roll them."
When Anderson sustained a knee injury in a 2008 game against Indianapolis, some Browns fans cheered as he laid on the field in pain. Despite making the Pro Bowl in 2007, the majority of Cleveland fans wanted the club to start Quinn, a first-round draft pick in 2007.
But in a statement released Wednesday, Anderson said those words came out of frustration.
I wasn't taken out of context, but I was speaking out of frustration after my career with the Browns came to a close." -- Ex-Browns QB Derek Anderson
"I said some things to [News-Herald reporter] Jeff Schudel earlier that I regret," Anderson said. "Those of you who got to know me personally from covering the Browns over the past five years, know this was out of character for me. I wasn't taken out of context, but I was speaking out of frustration after my career with the Browns came to a close.
"I had some great times playing in Cleveland, especially during the 2007 season, and I met some great people and made many lifelong friends along the way," Anderson said Wednesday. "I'm looking forward to starting a new chapter in my life."
According to a league source, Anderson already has two scheduled visits -- first with the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday and then the Arizona Cardinals on Friday.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Maxim Florence
Excellent Location
Terrific location near everything. Pleasant, accommodating staff. A bit rough around the edges, but overall excellent value for the price.
Great location, value for money hotel
The Hotel Maxim is a block from the Duomo, two minutes from the Palazzo Vecchio and Uffizi gallery and just round the corner from the Plaza Republica - you couldn't get a better location in Florence. It's on the third floor of an old building and has a typical four person max. elevator. The staff were welcoming and always friendly. Our room had a wooden beamed ceiling, wooden floor and very comfortable bed. Like the rest of the hotel, our room was very clean. Plenty of hot water and the heating was excellent (it was snowing when we arrived). For the price, the hotel was a real bargain and we're already making plans to return. If you want a clean, inexpensive "no frills" hotel in central Florence, you should consider the Hotel Maxim.
The location cannot be beat!
We will never stay anywhere else when we visit Florence again! Though the hotel itself is not the best, the location cannot be beat. We found our room and bathroom very clean. The towels are very thin and the shower is strange because it's not separated from the rest of the restroom. However, the staff is friendly and the breakfast was OK. We really did not spend very much time in our room at all. Why would you? You are in the most beautiful and romantic city in the world! The location of this hotel makes up for all its drawbacks. I would definitely recommend it!
This hotel is not only dirty, it smells like it is over the city sewer line, sheets have holes in them, dust is an inch thick on the furniture, blankets contain more hairs (of other people) than most have on their heads, walls are in need of a paint job, etc... None of this makes up for its location!!
Full Access to Florence
Besides the obvious prime location; next to the Duomo, on the busy Via Dei Calzaiuoli and minutes from the Accademia, Uffizi and the train station, this hotel was welcoming and comfortable. Our room was air conditioned, the breakfast was okay, and the lack of a television in the rooms brought guests to the hotel lobby to sit around the coffee table and talk about restaurants they loved and sights they have seen. For those on a day trip from Siena and are looking to spend the night, this hotel is 10 minutes away from the SITA bus station, where it only takes 30 minutes to get from city to city. Personal suggestions for eating nearby; Osteria Vini e Vecchi Sapori north of Palazzo Vecchio for dinner and the Gelateria Carrozze for the best gelato in town. Enjoy!
Good hotel for budget needs
I ended up at Hotel Maxim after reading reviews on TripAdvisor.com. The first room I was given had a bathroom with a shower (ensuite). However, the shower was the entire bathroom - like a cruise ship. The drain was in the center of the bathroom and the toilet, sink, etc. would have gotten wet had I used it. I was terribly disappointed by this because no reviews had mentioned this messy shower situation. After my first night I inquired if all the room's shower situations were like this and was quickly moved to another, much more comfortable room with bathroom that had a separate shower with shower curtain.
Besides this inconvenience, for a budget-priced room in the middle of Florence I had a good experience. The rooms were clean. The staff very friendly. The breakfast was very standard (cereal, breads), but what do you expect for this price? The location can't be beat. In the heart of Florence within walking distance to almost every site. Overall, I would recommend Hotel Maxim if you need a budget accommodation. Just be sure to request a good bathroom/shower arrangement.
Maxim, great find
Hotel Maxim, this is in a fabulous location and great value,would stay there again, also the staff are very helpful and friendly, rooms are very clean & have a separate bathroom, there is a new and old section we stayed in the older section and this was great, but we have been told that the newer section is even better, cheers
Great location with just average quality
The location of the hotel is superb, it is close to everything you want to see in Florence. Our room was facing via del Calzaiuoli, a very busy street during the day and night, but the room (with the window and shutter closed) was reasonably quiet at night. The quality of the facility inside the room was not that great but sufficient to meet minimum needs for a hotel stay. The lobby of the building and the elevator look a bit scary (kind of shabby). The location of this hotel is the best thing I found. (I went to Florence last year staying in a nice hotel but way too far from everyting.) Most of the sights are within walking distance, except for Piazzale Michelangelo. I found that very helpful for my visit, I just walked to all major sights I wanted to visit. The Uffizi, Accademia, Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria, Bargello, San Lorenzo street market, and even the train station are all within 5 - 15 minutes walking distance. The price is reasonable, a double room costed 103 euro per night when I visited in May.
Good and bad
The room was cramped and only moderately clean. The promised view did not exist. The price was too much. The saving grace of hotel maxim is location, location, location. After 3 days, we were glad to leave.
Great Value, Awesome Location!
Great clean hotel steps from the Duomo! It should definitely have more than a 1 star rating. I stayed at the Hotel Medici right across the street on the first night and inquired into prices at Maxim when walking by the next morning. The price was almost 1/2 of that I was paying and the room was even nicer. Looks like they did a lot of recent renovations because the bathrooms, furniture, etc. all look pretty new. Definitely a bargain and a perfect location...minutes from the Uffizi, seconds from the Duomo, a couple of blocks from the Piazza Republica. Strongly recommend. I would definitely go back.

A new approach to counting votes at MID
I've been following the ins and outs of Merced Irrigation District's budget shortfall and subsequent fee increase for the last couple of months. Since then it has been an important topic for farmers. While the board finally decided to have a protest vote on the fee, the issue doesn't seem to be able to go away.
Last Tuesday at MID's Board meeting, the coming protest vote over fee increases took one tiny step in a new direction. Supervisor Wil Hunter introduced an idea that would remove the voting process from MID's management whose budget relies on the passage of the fee increase. In the new process, a certified CPA would oversee the protest vote instead of MID management, among other things. Some may not like the protest vote at all, but at least now there will be no appearance of conflict of interest in the vote-counting. The board ultimately voted unanimously to proceed with this new approach.

The Great Beyond: The incredible shrinking sea iceQuicklink submitted by Laudyms Permalink
|March is the month in which the Arctic sea ice heals as much as it ever will. Even so, the outlook remains grim, scientists reported today. Researchers cautioned that even though the extent of the ice isn't at a record low, the amount of perennial ice -- the ice that sticks around from year to year -- is. As of February, only about 30 percent of the sea ice was old stuff that had been around for more than a year.
