comfortable room. Value for money

It was a comfortable stay.
Clean rooms and nice staff.
Room size are good. Clean room, helpful stuff.Nice location . Breakfast hours are longer than other motels( 6.30 to 10 A.M) and checkout at 12 noon.
Great location near BYU-went for the BYU/Texas game. Being so close allowed us to wait out the bad weather and then walk over to the stadium at our leisure.
It was convenient to the BYU campus.
One of the hosts was very difficult to understand because English is not his native language. When his son (I think) came to help us when we checked in, everything was better.
Nothing. Would not stay here again.

If you come to the store during the sale we will have food and beverages, maybe some live music on Saturday. A good time will be had by all. Spread the word. Thanks for your help. Forrest

| 300D rescue
Last month I bought an 82 300D that had sat in a feild for about two years, at the time it had a dead battery, frozen brakes, a very lumpy idle and would not shut down without using the manual shut-off on the throttle linkage. The previous owner told me that the climate control would blow its fuse with the a.c. belt in place, so he removed the belt; he claimed the defroster and heat still worked fine with the belt removed. I have since washed all of the black gweege from the engine bay, freed the brakes,replaced pads in all four corners, new rotors and wheel-bearings up front, resurfaced the rear rotors, replaced a leaking fuel line at the fuel tank, replaced the fuel primer pump (old one leaked externally), replaced the fuel filters, sealed a leaking banjo fitting on the f.i. pump. and have turned up the idle speed at the f.i.pump, checked the rack dampener bolt (tuned all the way in. I put a hand vacuum pump to the the f.i. pump shut-off dingus and the motor shuts right off, if I turn the key off the motor dives into a lumpy idle as if its trying to do its job; I think I may have turned the idle speed up so high that the shutoff cant work. is this possible? Also the a.c.c. unit seems to do nothing, no fan, no heat ,no defrost, no nothing. I have the driver side knee bolster off and can see that the vacuum tubes to and from the ign. switch are intact but there is one black vacuum tube about 8 inches into the firewall that has been orphaned, I have no idea where it goes nor do I see anything disconected. Is that tube why the a.c.c. does nothing an any position or combination? And/or is this diconected tube contributing to the no key shut-down issue. The door locks are kind of intermittent too , if that helps; how can I isolate the lock system? Sorry about the long post I have been searching , but have found a little more than fragmented information on theese issues. thanks in advance. Last edited by Grif900; 09-20-2010 at 06:38 PM. |

Thanks for rescuing an example. Yes, that is a vent line, so it's good. You're probably going to have a bunch of critters in the fuel tank, keep an eye on the primary (clear, inline) fuel filter. Usually the door locks develop a vacuum leak in that system, as you mention, they are iffy. This will not allow enough vac to get to the shut off actuator. What is your idle speed, rpm wise? Check the fuses, as a matter of fact, replace them all, they may look fine, but once out, the ends can deteriorate. This is not visible by merely doing a visual inspection in situ. The push button unit itself has a tendency to fail at a high rate. Search "cold solder/s". While the lower kick panel is off, feel around the ignition key area for any oil. When you used a hand held pump to shut the engine off, did you notice any oil in that line? Keep us posted.

Today I heated and bent a couple of not to horrible 14 mm. wrenches into a fine pair of M-B valve adjustment wrenches and adjusted the valves and replaced the cover gasket with a nice non-leaking new one. I suspect that the prerson that designed that cover had something to do with the design of the Iron Lady of Nurenburg, I had to swear at the thing with a filthly string of obsenenitys in German before it went into place with the new gasket attached all around it's two mile circumference. Anyway, the thing revs up faster and runs way better but I still have a lumpy idle. I guess I will have to go after the fuel system. Is diesel purge worth its beans? I have a hard time with snake-oils and their salesmen. Worth a mention is my accidental discovery that the engine does shut off perfectly by turning the ignition switch fully counter clockwise but only if all of the doors are locked. Cool safety failure, Huh? I've got a used ccu and fog lamp on the way via Ebay, If those items work out I will be two tires away from a decent runner for under $500.

sounds like you have a leak in one of the locking pods.. time to get out the old vacuum pump and track down which one...

| Yay confetti!!!
Today I tinkered with the Doctor Seuss throttle linknage parts and cleaned and gresed all of the little balljoints all SMOOTH. and repaired the accellerator linkage mount with a blast of red brakekleen and a healthy smear of gorilla super glue, Wow! good as new and garanteed until it falls apart agian. Idle has improved significantly, but I think diesel purge may well be the best way to go before I plunk down $250+ for Bosio nozzles and a new set of heatsheilds. Any input from people that have used one or both would be greatly appriciated. I ordered a new mid muffler because I cant weld rust back together and hope that I can conect it to the "custom" straight pipe that the PO had settled for, My used accu arrived today and I tested out right quick, I set it to defrost mode and pushed the top fan button and grinned from ear to ear when the blower spooled right up and mouse bedding confetti filled the forward regions of the cabin. Life is good despite them varmints (they have snice moved on). Then [I] insalled a decent amber fog lamp wich works great, and looks like a fair match for thre other side. So another step forward. Not a bad day just tinkering aroung I'd say. Last edited by Grif900; 11-02-2010 at 08:41 AM. Reason: wrong nozzle brand name. |

Does sound like a productive day. I have done a diesel purge, to no effect, but I do this with all "new" MB diesels, it makes me feel better. It isn't expensive and you may have better performance. |

As I recall, there was no effect any time I used it. Seems the cars I buy have not been abused. I did do this twice to the SD, again, no difference, all other cars once only.

gently at first, it begins.
tender soles rolling across
firm skins, applying pressure.
juice filled orbs
stretch and burst,
warm flesh oozes,exposed
as the weight increases
and the strokes speed
showing no mercy.
life's blood is squeezed,
sweetmeats are trampled
underfoot,wrenching out all
that was once fresh
and succulent, until only
an empty, bitter hull remains.
and having emptied you,
she retires to sip the wine
and consider future harvests.

Strongly agree here. This was exactly the formula when I left my first guild. It was a casual guild, I was looking for progression, but still very much liked everyone in the casual guild. I told them of my decision, had a one-on-one with just about every member of the guild in Vent to thank them for everything, and went on my way.
I still keep in touch with the members of that guild, even though several have also gone their separate ways and the original officers transferred servers.

Developing maternal self-efficacy can counteract the impact of negative psychological consequences of premature birth, improving maternal well-being. A study was carried out to investigate women's experiences in a neonatal unit (NNU) in Scotland. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 19 primiparous mothers of preterm babies.
The researchers explored their experience of preterm birth and development of self-efficacy in infant feeding behaviors. Women reported experiencing loss and disruption in relation to mothering, loss of autonomy, and searching for normality after premature birth. Providing breastmilk symbolised embodied contact with their baby and increased maternal confidence. The mothers developed motivation, knowledge, and perseverance. They perceived success from positive feedback, primarily from their baby and health professionals' support and encouragement. Women actively constructed opportunities to develop ownership, control, and confidence in relation to interactions with their baby.
The researchers conclude that enhancing self-efficacy improves maternal confidence in the NNU.

Acqua di Parma Colonia Eau de Cologne
Date: 15/06/10
Advantages: Last long, smells really great, gentle on senstive skin
Disadvantages: Pricey
I paid quite a fortune for this perfume when I was in Italy earlier this year- but so far, I've had no regrets with it. One thing which I truly despise is splurging out on a rather expensive perfume only to find that it barely lasts, therefore encouraging constant re-touches. That's not to mention the fact that this is an Eau de Cologne- and it's therefore very hard to retouch on cologne when you're on a date! This might not be as handy as a perfume spray but this cologne can be used both under and over clothes, without staining or running the fabric. I've had some cologne that caused havoc when I tried to dab a little bit on my clothes in the past- and this is thankfully not one of them. Moreover, I have a tendency to dab a little bit of cologne on my wrists and neck and like I mentioned in a previous perfume review, my skin usually burn like hell. I was therefore extremely pleased to note that there was absolutely no burning/tingling sensation with this one- it seems quite okay to be used on sensitive skin like mine.
As usual, it was the packaging which caught my eye first: Believe me when I say that the dooyoo picture above certainly does no justice to the marvellous and extremely elegant packaging of this cologne. It comes in a beautifully rounded gold box that instantly inspires elegance and class. The bottle itself is quite simple, but just as elegant- large, round and transparent in order to show the gold cologne inside, and is topped by a simple large silver cap. I think that it was the simplicity of the bottle that first caught my eye: I've rarely seen such elegance despite the simplicity of it all. Moreover, I also tend to see how easy it is to hold the bottle because I tend to be quite clumsy, and this one is really very firm to the grip- I don't think there's much chance of me dropping this bottle! The large neck also allows quite a liberal flow of the cologne, a bit too liberal if you ask me since it also encourages you to use more cologne than you really need.
This cologne is supposedly aimed at both men and women- but I personally wouldn't find it suitable for men, at least not according to the way I like men to smell! There's a very, very strong whiff of citrus which emerges as soon as I open the bottle and I have to admit that the very powerful scent initially put me off. It was too heavy and intense for me but I noticed that after I dab it on my skin, the heaviness tends to lighten up and gives way to other fragrances. The citrus smell is still there, and followed by rose and other fruity and flowery smell. While citrus remains the dominant fragrance, the cologne blends fruity with flowery and I would say that there's just a teeny tiny bit of musk. This is also supposed to contain sandalwood but frankly speaking, I failed to recognize it under the fruity-floral smell- it just wasn't powerful enough. Like the packaging, even the smell is simple yet elegant and I truly feel like a million pounds when I wear this. There's also something a bit satiny about the smell which only enhances the elegance of it all. I have to say, however, that when I first dab it on my skin, it feels a little bit powdery, but this also wears off after a few minutes. In the whole blend of fruity-flowery smell, the ones that remain most prominent after a couple of hours are definitely iris and citrus. There are also faint hints of ylang-ylang and vanilla.
Like I said, I found that one generous application of this cologne is enough to last for quite some time. After a few hours, the cologne does not fade away but rather lightens to give way so some secondary fragrances that are included. I tend to favor this perfume for evening wear since it's a little too heavy for me to wear during the day. It's not as heavy as the initial scent but just a tad too intense for daylight, according to me. Actually, it's not the kind of perfume which I would feel comfortable with for something formal or job interviews or the likes- as elegant as it might be, there is a hint of sexiness, fun and just a tad intimidating about the scent. There's nothing subtle about this cologne, which is why it's rather something I would prefer when going out with my friends, parties or on dates.
Overall, this is certainly one Eau de Cologne which I would recommend if you want to indulge yourself. There are cheaper colognes out there but this one is really long-lasting and provides an extremely elegant smell. It's not overpowering, but not that light either so be careful where you wear it to. I checked Amazon but the cologne is currently unavailable on there. You can, however, purchase this on this American site for $148.00 and free shipping to the UK:
Very highly recommended!

Supreme Court to consider climate change rules
November 29, 2006
This is the same court that effectively ended Al Gore's chances for the presidency in 2000. And of course, Gore has gone on to become an environmental rock star in championing the fight against global warming.
The second irony is that the very title of the Environmental Protection Agency charges it with protecting the environment. One might think that the agency would understand its mission without needing to be reminded.
Let's drill down a bit into the case at hand, Massachusetts v. EPA.
Respected scientific opinion suggests to the Supreme Court that a rise in global temperatures and related changes in climate and environment have been caused by a large increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
So it was that a group of private organizations subsequently petitioned the EPA to start regulating emissions of four gases, including carbon dioxide, under the Clean Air Act.
Section 202(a)(1) of the act requires the agency to prescribe standards applicable to the emissions of any air pollutant from any class of new motor vehicles which, in the judgment of the EPA, contributes to air pollution that is anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. The Clean Air Act defines an air pollutant as any air pollution agent, including any physical, chemical substance emitted into the ambient air.
The EPA denied the private organizations' petition. The reasoning? The agency claimed that the Clean Air Act does not authorize it to issue mandatory regulations to address global climate change. Also, even if it had the authority to set greenhouse gas emission standards, the EPA thinks it unwise to do so. Believe it or not, the EPA takes the position that a causative relationship is not firmly established between greenhouse gases and increasing global surface air temperatures.(EPA, hello? Repeat after me: "Protect the environment.")
Joined by Massachusetts and other state and local governments, the petitioners sought review by a federal appellate court in Washington, D.C. Two of the three judges on that appellate panel agreed that the EPA properly denied the underlying petition. Not surprisingly, the matter was brought to the attention of the Supreme Court, which exercised its discretion to consider the case.
In a majority opinion authored by Justice Stevens, the Supreme Court reversed and remanded the case for further proceedings.
Specifically, the high court found that the harms associated with climate change are serious and well understood. Indeed, the government's own objective assessment of the science, along with a large consensus within the expert community, indicate that global warming threatens a rise in sea levels, irreversible changes to ecosystems, a significant reduction in snowpack, and increases in the spread of disease, as well as the ferocity of weather events.
Because of the EPA's failure to dispute factually the causative connection between greenhouse gas emissions and global warming, its failure to regulate such emissions actually contributes to the injuries of petitioners such as Massachusetts, according to the Supreme Court.
While the Supreme Court recognizes that the EPA's regulation of motor vehicle emissions alone may not reverse global warming, the court concludes that this does not obviate an obligation by the agency to take steps to slow or reduce this trend.
Moreover, because greenhouse gases actually do fit well within the Clean Air Act's definition of an air pollutant, the EPA has a statutory duty to regulate the emission of such gases from new motor vehicles, so holds the Supreme Court.
While the Supreme Court some years ago was the straw that broke the camel's back in Gore's presidential bid, the majority of its members have since come to understand the inconvenient truth of global warming and the EPA's significant role in regulating greenhouse gases. Consequently, they are ordering the EPA, the very agency charged with protecting the environment, to fulfill its statutory obligations to do so under the Clean Air Act.
Hopefully, we all will be able to breathe fresh air in relief as the EPA satisfies its mission going forward.

Join the conversation! Add your comment- Gore an "environmental rock star"????
- Gore an "environmental rock star"? That's a good one. He's actually more of an environmental hypocrite. Public records show his homes use more than twice the electricity in one month than the average American home uses in one year. His frequent private jet travel does four times the environmental carbon emission damage that flying on a commercial jet would, and commercial jets are not exactly environmentally friendly. As USA Today said in an editorial, "... if Al Gore is the world's role model for ecology, the planet is doomed."

- Gore _is_ an environmental "rock star"
- First of all, people don't idolize rock stars because they like the choices they make when they visit a restaurant, they mostly idolize them because they like the music they make. Some of the most beloved people who make the biggest difference in the world for a cause, have pretty stupid private lives.
Gore is an "environmental rock star" simply because he has become renowned for opening a lot of people's eyes about global warming, among other things. Even if his home used 10x the amount of energy of the average home, the net effect of his consciousness-raising on environmental issues is a thousand times more significant to us as a global society than his personal energy use. I guess any person who travels the globe in order to get a message across to the global community (including green party politicians, Greenpeace activists, and everyone else who operates on a global scale) must now be demonized as "environmentally incorrect".
Reminds me of all those Prius drivers who actually think that they are doing something massively significant for the environment other than making themselves feel smug about their "enviro-cred". (ie if they *really* wanted to be useful, they'd be riding a bicycle instead) - Like Link Flag

- Where's the CO2
- The problem is not our breathing (cute!). The problem is that we are burning carbon that was removed from the carbon cycle geologically. We harvest carbon (oil, coal, etc.), use it (heating, electricity, transportation) and the carbon is released to the atmosphere as CO2.
It is fair - and good science - to say that the increase in CO2 in our atmosphere has not been proven to cause the average temperature of the world to increase. That has NOT been proven. It is good science to say that there is statistical evidence that the globe is warmer that it has been in the recent past. It is statistically accurate that there has been an observed increase in the CO2 concentration. There is no evidence, statistically or otherwise, that the increase in CO2 concentration has caused the average temperature to increase. Maybe there is a connection - seems reasonable - but we need to prove it!
There are other things that could be causing "global warming" (solar output, other greenhouse gases, changes in ocean current systems), and we had better dig in and find out what's really going on or we could end up in bigger trouble by not attending to the "real" problem!
The carbon released from burning wood, decaying vegetation and even cow farts is all part of the carbon cycle and are generally carbon neutral. You can plant a tree and it will grow up and tie up carbon in the cellulose of the wood. When the tree dies, that carbon is released back to the environment either slowly, through decay, or quickly, through combustion. It's the carbon we are adding to the cycle that may be a problem.
If you really want to be scared, think about what will happen if the seas get warm enough to warm the sediment and release the methane trapped in the seabed. Methane is a much more potent "greenhouse" gas than CO2! What's the most effective "greenhouse gas"? Water vapor. As the atmosphere heats up, the air can carry more water vapor which causes a vicious cycle.
As you read the hype about "global warming", try to remember that you guys are the most technically minded people on the planet. Make the naysayers find the real answers before we spend billions on a pointless solution and end up screwed cause we didn't solve the problem!

UPDATE 2-OneWest buys First Federal as 7 US banks fail
- Tweet
- Share this
* OneWest to assume $4.5 bln in First Federal deposits
* Seven U.S. banks fail on Friday
* Bank failures now total 140 in 2009
(Recasts, adds expert comment)
By Gina Keating and Paritosh Bansal
LOS ANGELES/NEW YORK, Dec 18 (Reuters) - OneWest Bank, formerly failed mortgage lender IndyMac, bought the assets of First Federal Bank after it was closed by U.S. regulators, in a deal that may bolster the case for private investment in banks.
California's First Federal was one of seven U.S. lenders closed on Friday by regulators, bringing the total number of U.S. bank failures this year to 140.
The 39 branches of First Federal -- formerly controlled by FirstFed Financial FFED.PK -- reopen on Saturday as OneWest Bank FSB.
In addition to assuming $4.5 billion in total deposits, OneWest, of Pasadena, Calif., agreed to buy essentially all of First Federal's assets of $6.1 billion, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp said.
The deal is OneWest's first since it was formed to take over IndyMac's assets earlier this year by a group of private equity and hedge fund investors, including funds run by billionaire investors J.C. Flowers, John Paulson and George Soros.
It should come as heartening news for other private investors looking to make inroads into the sector, including funds being raised by bank executives like former Bank of America (BAC.N) Vice Chairman Gene Taylor. [ID:nN18246968]
"It certainly validates their argument to the FDIC that they can go in and successfully run a bank, turn it around, and then buy additional ones," said Chip MacDonald, a banking lawyer at Jones Day, referring to private investors.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp, worried about the stability of the banking sector over the long term, has made failed bank acquisitions by private investors harder than they are for banks looking to buy one another.
Other bank regulators, like the Federal Reserve, also continue to jealously guard the separation between banking and commerce, which makes it difficult for private equity investors to bid on banks.
"A successful experience like this between the FDIC and private equity may encourage the FDIC to be a little more receptive," MacDonald said.
With an estimated cost of $146.3 million to the Deposit Insurance Fund, the FDIC also got a much better deal on this than a lot of other failed banks during this crisis, he added.
Smaller institutions have been collapsing at a rapid clip because of deteriorating loan portfolios and related liquidity and capital issues amid a weak economy.
FirstFed posted a $244.8 million net loss in its fourth quarter, hit by declining California home prices and a 10-fold leap in bad-loan provisions.
First Federal declined to comment. OneWest declined to make Chairman Steven Mnuchin available for an interview.
This year has marked the highest annual level of bank failures since 1992, when the industry was still cleaning up from the savings and loan crisis.
Other banks closed on Friday include: Imperial Capital Bank of La Jolla, California, with assets of $4 billion; Peoples First Community Bank of Panama City, Florida with assets of $1.8 billion; New South Federal Savings Bank of Irondale, Alabama with assets of $1.5 billion; Independent Bankers' Bank of Springfield, Illinois, with assets of $585.5 million; RockBridge Commercial Bank of Atlanta with assets of $294 million; and Citizens State Bank in New Baltimore, Mich., with assets of $168.6 million.
Of these, City National Bank (CYN.N) bought assets of Imperial Capital, Beal Bank bought the assets of New South, and Hancock Bank bought the assets of Peoples First Community Bank.
But the FDIC found no buyers for the remaining three.
"Tonight there have been at least three banks without buyers. The FDIC needs buyers," MacDonald said.
The FDIC has said the pace of failures will likely peak next year. This week, the agency boosted its operating budget for 2010 by 55 percent to $4 billion to handle the cost of failures, which is expect to total $100 billion from 2009 through 2013. (Editing by Edwin Chan, Carol Bishopric and Ron Popeski)
Now we have 30 bank failures in Georgia followed by 22 bank failures in California and Illinois each since 2008.

Leonard Johnson is living out a dream season, the home area kid out of Largo High School went from an undrafted free agent to a starting cornerback for the Buccaneers.
He says it's too early to soak in all this season has had to offer, and that's because his mother helps to keep him grounded. As a family decision Johnson moved back in with his mother and step-dad during training camp. They wanted the rookie who was wrapped up in a stiff battle for a roster spot, to put all his concentration on making his mother's favorite team.
Johnson and his family used to attend Bucs' game as he grew up, and now he's sharing the Bucs' secondary with still his mother Schanique's favorite player Ronde Barber.
"Leonard came home with a pair of cleats signed by Ronde, and I said are those for me," questioned Schanique Harris. "He said no these are for me."
That was a phrase atypical for Johnson, who's proved off the field that he's a continual giver and that's due in large part to the life lessons taught to him by Schanique.
You see Johnson isn't only trying to make an impact on the field for Tampa Bay, he's trying to do it off the field as well.
"My work in the community started a long time ago when I was in and out of trouble in middle school, I can remember my mom sending me to different nursing homes and handing out Teddy Bears to kids," said Johnson.
Along with his eight siblings Johnson was taught a lot of structure growing up. Schanique set the standard when telling her children they had three days after graduating high school to figure out where their life was headed and where they're going to live.
"We had barriers, kind of like a bowling alley, the bouncers, we put bouncers on him, so when he decided he was going to bounce out of line he had something to put him back on track," said Harris.
Johnson left yesterday's game briefly with an arm injury, but instead of going home to ice it he was trying to get others back on track in life. After the game he joined his family and friends at Pinellas Safe Harbor to serve meals to the homeless.
The loss was still fresh on Johnson's mind but it was hard to wipe the warm smile from his face as he greeted people coming in out of the cold.
"I'm hear passing out food and I'm hearing everyone say, oh you guys lost, oh better luck next year, ya know that taste is still in my mouth, from us losing, but it definitely softens my heart, and makes me feel like I am doing a good deed," said Johnson.
"It shows his commitment to what he's already started, in these hours and times like this that these people are important," said Schanique.
Those important principals Schanique and her husband Charles have instilled in Johnson are now benefiting the Tampa Bay area in two capacities.
"It's all genuine and I like doing stuff like this, because the people you encounter, the people that you meet, can also make an impact on your life just as I can make an impact on theirs'," said Johnson.

text: Sometimes books can make me smile, even before I read them. Last night, I picked my daughter up from work and she had a book I've been waiting for - Son by Lois Lowry, the final book in The Giver quartet. I loved the first three and have no doubt I will do the same with this one. Then this morning, I got to work and there on my keyboard was a copy of Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time. There was a stickie note attached: Christy, read your column a while ago and thought you might like to read this book. Cate. Yes, a co-worker dropped it off for me! Cool. This book has been on my to-read list for a while so that makes me happy. And I'm all smiles now.

I haven't experienced a single problem with my Blackberry Storm that I got Feb. 14th. It has worked flawlessly since I got it. I watched the entire episode of Heroes that I missed last week (and the end of Chuck) on my Storm. Also surfed thru some YouTube videos. Looked up a recipe for some dinner I made the other night (spice reccommendations). Get my email and MSN Messenger stuff all the time. Look up goecaching stuff, take pictures and email them to people right on the spot. It is freakin' awesome. I will say that the battery life is not spectacular (I get around 2 days between charges with plenty of use) but there are aftermarket extended life batteries for it (one is downright huge and looks like a sleeper cab on the back of the Storm).

The iphone thread got me thinking on this.
So the .148 update came out, and my phone is 1000% better. Mine was one of the ones with a TON of glitches. Working great now, however even though there is a bunch of apps available, I haven't found many I like (or really need). Battery life is greatly improved. Memory gets hogged up fast I found out as well. The Quicklaunch app is simply outstanding. Anyone else have anything good for theirs yet? I like the Bolt Browser download over the standard one, but it won't save the damn cookies right and remember me on websites for some damn reason. |

I was ready to smash the damn thing and get an IPhone until .148 came out... Have you checked out www.stormota.com? They've got a decent selection of apps. My favorite app so far is Berry Wars, it's a Storm version of the old Dope Wars game, great for burning some time. Sexy Dice is a fun app. that you and your woman can enjoy. |

I used a BB Storm for a while and absolutely hated it. I do a lot of email/text on my phone, and found that the on screen keyboard was the fail. The keys light up as you finger over them, but to push them, you actually push the screen in (its flexible, so it can push in about 1/16th inch). It's really sucky for typing on, but other than that, a nifty gadget. I switched back to a curve and am really happy with it.

I have spent the better part of the last two weeks investigating the possibility of cache hijacking. I have come to the conclusion that is NOT the problem with my site. I have also been adding code to my sites that will "punt" the scrapers off of my site. They now just find themselves re-directed to Google's spam report page. AMAZING - how abruptly they stop coming around now! I do fear that the scraper remedy is too little - too late though. The carcus (my site) most likely has been too scraped over already to be salvageable. It may be already doomed to 'duplicate hell' for eternity - maybe longer. I haven't given up the fight just yet though... Caryl
Nothing has changed for me either.

Not too great
Some problems:
1. Why is "C" jump? It feels more natural to jump with the up arrow.
2. Is it just me, or can you not get back down when you get to the top level? The level I was on had no opening space to fall back down to the bottom when you were on the top.

After a statement from Barack Obama, it's official that terrorist-in-chief Osama bin Laden has been killed by U.S forces. A joyous day to be sure, but there has to be one question that Obama has to answer quickly and clearly.
What are they going to do with the body of the world's hide-and-seek champion (2001-2011)?
For me the most obvious choice for the superpower that was humiliated for a decade, would be to stuff him, put him in a grovelling stance and position him in front of the site of the World Trade Centres.
There would be a beautiful poetry to that, but we want to hear from you.
So the question today is: what would you do with the personification of the United States' greatest failure?
Tell us and remember...Disqus!

A senior editor at CNN lost her job for tweeting about him. Thousands of Lebanese Shiites poured into the streets to mourn him.
Ayatollah Sayyed Mohammed Fadlallah, often characterized in western media as the "spiritual adviser to Hezbollah," died of natural causes in Beirut this week at the age of 75. Many western leaders considered him a terrorist.
The laying of the groundwork must begin today, so that the American people will be prepared for the day when the mirage the Fed has created evaporates completely.
People's Liberation Army (PLA) Major General Luo Yuan, in a commentary published by state-owned website china.org.cn, said China has not abandoned the idea of "war at all costs" to protect its interests.
"'Peaceful rise and 'period of strategic opportunity' preclude war," said Luo, who has been described by Western media as "hawkish" for his ultranationalist views.
"It is incorrect to assume that China will completely rule out military action in any event during this 'period of strategic opportunity,'" he said, referring to Beijing's dispute with Manila.
The novelty? To drive this revolution in an economic framework that will attract investors and governments in entrepreneurial partnerships that feed self-interest while revolutionising outcomes – particularly in relation to carbon.
The blue economy was initially a report to the Club of Rome recommending innovations inspired by science and biometrics. This is a truly cool equation. Science + Economics = A Better Future.

Where does the old man tell the three rioters to look for Death in the Pardoner's tale?...
Topic: The Canterbury Tales
Where does the old man tell the three rioters to look for Death in the Pardoner's tale? How do they treat him?
1 Answer | add yours
The three drunkards are really very rude to the old man. He greets them very politely, but one of the drunkards responded rudely and asked him why he was still alive - as he was so old, he should be dead.
The old man responds to this rudeness by saying that he does not think it appropriate to speak to an old man like that, as well as adding that he would love to die - he keeps knocking on the door of death, he says, but it will not open for him.
The drunkards then continue to be rude the old man, telling him that he will regret it if he does not tell them where death is.
He responds:
To fynde deeth, turne up this croked wey,
For in that grove I lafte hym, by my fey,
Under a tree, and there he wole abyde;
Noght for youre boost he wole him no thyng hyde.
Se ye that ook? right there ye shal hym fynde.
God save yow...
(line by line translation:)
To find Death, go up this crooked path
For I left him in that grove, honestly,
Under a tree - and he will stay there -
He will not hide anything despite what you say.
Do you see that oak? You'll find him right there.
God save you!
Hope it helps!

Absolute Return Index
Definition of 'Absolute Return Index'
A stock index designed to measure absolute returns. The absolute return index is actually a composite index made up of five other indexes. This index is used to compare the absolute returns posted by the hedge fund market as a whole against individual hedge funds.
Investopedia explains 'Absolute Return Index'
The hedge fund absolute return index (HFRX) measures the comprehensive overall returns of hedge funds. Since hedge funds explore unique investment strategies and seek to obtain absolute returns rather than focus on beating the benchmark, the HFRX is representative of all hedge fund strategies.
