The Fionie, the garden of Denmark
By car, 101 km, 1 dayWith a surface area of 3500km2, the Fionie is the second of the Danish islands situated between the Jutland (to which it is linked by a bridge) in the west and the Sjaelland in the east. The island's most important town is Odense. Near the picturesque village of Troense, don't miss the baroque Valdemars castle constructed by Christian IV. Nearby, find Egeskov castle, one of the most famous castles in Denmark, and also one of the best preserved of the Renaissance period.

A modern, bronze fountain by Kai Nielsen stands on the main square and a belfry (15C) towers over the area. Half-timbered houses painted in vibrant colours line the cobbled streets, and modest artisans' houses stand next to elegant merchants' residences. Den Gamle Gård, an ancient residence now housing the Kulturhistoriske Museet or history museum, stands on Holkegade. Fåborg Museum for Fynsk Malerkunst, in Grønnegade, is a Museum of Fyn Art, famous for its paintings by local painters, such as Peter Hansen and Johannes Larsen.
Valdemars Castle
An imposing Baroque castle located in a wooded area on the edge of a lake near Troense (a picturesque village). Built between 1639 and 1644 by Christian IV for his son Valdemar, the castle was later given to national hero Niels Juel, who renovated it in Baroque style at the end of the 17C. His descendants (still the owners) have opened part of the property to the public. The rooms, from the Great Hall to the servants' rooms, are furnished as if they were in use, thus recreating the atmosphere of an elegant residence.
Built in 1554 on an island in the middle of a lake surrounded by a forest, this Renaissance castle originally played a defensive role. It is still inhabited by the ancestors of the man who built it and therefore only parts are open to the public. Of particular note are the Great Hall, restored in 1975, as well as the array of hunting trophies that were brought back from Africa by a previous owner. The lovely grounds created in the 18C and redesigned in 1959 are perfect for a stroll. A 3 000m2 museum houses a collection of old cars, planes, motorcycles and horse-drawn carriages.

Satos=the term used in Puerto Rico for stray dogs...
For those of you that aren't familiar with the island of Puerto Rico, we have a huge stray dog problem here. It is very sad! I am a very lucky house dog that gets all the comforts of a wonderful life. I get really good food everyday, I have all the fresh water I can drink, I have comfy beds to sleep on, a family that loves me, toys to play with, healthy treats, even air-conditioning for this hot climate. Many of my kind, however, aren't that lucky. There is a pack of about 10 dogs that live at the beach close to my house. They sleep in the hot sun and have to search around for food. I have watched them drink from muddy puddles and pick through trash. Luckily many people go to that beach and feed them, but it still isn't the best life for them. Lately there have been two doggies hanging around our condo and they both are so cute. The humans have been feeding them and giving them water, but they still need a home. I don't know where they came from, but aren't they cute?
One of the problems here is a shortage of no-kill shelters. If a dog catcher takes a dog, chances are they will be put down. There is also a huge population of strays and although there are organizations that try to help, there are just so many dogs. I feel that I am so lucky and I just wished all dogs could have a happy home and a good life.
To read more about Puerto Rico's stray dog population, please see the links below.
Save a Sato A non-profit organization that works with stray and abused animals on the island
All Sato Rescue A non-profit working to reduce the number of strays and tackle the root problem
A.R.F A non-profit in Rincon, PR, close to my home, that fosters dogs and has a really cool program that educates kids on how to treat animals!
NAIA An interesting article that examines the global stray dog population problem and argues against shipping dogs from Puerto Rico to the U.S.
This is just a few of the sites you can find to learn more about the problem here. I wished I had an easy answer, but hopefully the problems with homeless dogs here will continue to improve. If you or anyone you know is interested in adopting the dogs above that live in my neighborhood, please contact me!

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3, originally published in Japan as Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! METEOR (ドラゴンボールZ Sparking! METEOR) in Japan, is the third installment of the Budokai Tenkaichi series. The game was released for the PlayStation 2 and Wii on October 4, 2007 in Japan (in some regions, the Wii port saw a delay). The PlayStation 2 version was released on November 13, 2007 in North America and on November 9, 2007 in Europe. The Wii version was later released on December 3, 2007 in North America and on February 15, 2008 in Europe.[1]
Like its predecessor, despite being released under the Dragon Ball Z label, Budokai Tenkaichi 3 essentially touches upon all series installments of the Dragon Ball franchise, featuring numerous characters and stages set in Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT and numerous film adaptations of Z. The game also features one of Akira Toriyama's original characters, related to Dragon Ball through crossovers, Arale Norimaki from Dr. Slump.
Budokai Tenkaichi 3 features 161 characters, almost the largest in any fighting game; being topped by Tobal 2, for which Akira Toriyama was a designer. Ryo Mito stated that the game would feature never-before-seen characters made exclusively for the game, referring to the Saiyans' Great Ape forms.[2] Gamestop offered an exclusive version with a bonus DVD containing the top 10 television series battles as voted by fans on the release date.
Several new notable features include: Battle Replay, night and day stages, the Wii's online capability, and Disc Fusion. Battle Replay allows players to capture their favorite fights and save them to an SD card to view later on. Night and day stages allow for more accurate battles in Dragon History, as well as the ability to transform into a Great Ape by using the moon. There are also several other time differences, such as dawn and afternoon. Not all stages provide different times. You can also change the aura of your character. The Wii version features online multiplayer capability, the first game in the series to have such a feature. Players can fight against anyone from around the globe with a ranking system showing the player's current standing compared to anyone else who has played online. As compensation for the lack of online, Spike has added a new "Disc Fusion" system to the PlayStation 2 version. Inserting a Budokai Tenkaichi 1 or 2 disc during play unlocks Ultimate Battle or Ultimate Battle Z, modes featured in the respective games needed to unlock them. The game also supports 480p for both the Wii and the PlayStation 2 versions.
Other features in the game include more combo attacks or character specific combos, the Blast Combos, and the Z Burst Dash. The additional combo attacks will be able to help chain in more attacks for more damage and longer combos. The Blast Combos are normal combos used in the game, however by inputting the another button into the attack will allow you to use a blast attack for extra damage. Depending on the moves of the character you might not be able to use this feat such as Videl or Hercule. The Z Burst Dash is much faster and more evasive version of the Dragon Dash. It allows the user to get behind the opponent at high speeds for either a strike or to avoid a Blast 2 attack. The drawback to this technique is that it will rapidly drain the user of energy unless equipped with certain Z-items.

New gameplay elements
Several new features have been added to Budokai Tenkaichi 3. These include:
- Sonic Sway – This technique allows the player to evade the opponent's attacks. Since it takes longer for the attacker to get back into their fighting stance than it does the player dodging the attacks, the attacker is left with an open defense. The one evading can then quickly counter-attack their opponent. However, this feature only applies to physical attacks aimed for the upper part of the body; if the opponent aims for the player's legs, for example, they cannot evade the attacks.
- Rush Ki Wave – A brand new combo finisher exclusive to some characters that allows them to send their opponent flying away with a charged one-handed beam.
- Z-Counter – The ability to block and counterattack by moving quickly behind the enemy. This is a technique seen in the series many times.
- Z Burst Dash – An enhanced version of the dash attack from the previous games, this technique allows players to zig and zag behind the opponent as they move at high speed.
- The addition of a new day and night system allows certain characters to harness the power of the moon to transform into a Great Ape.
- With the addition of the Battle Replay mode, players can now capture up to seven of their favorite fights and watch them again later on. There are also several camera angles you can use to swap views of the battle.
- The Wii version does not make use of the Wii's sensor bar. The game instead uses the Wii Remote's accelerometer which provides animations demonstrating how to perform techniques (much like previous games provide the button combinations that are required to execute a technique).[3]
- The game's story mode, called Dragon History, has been completely changed from the previous installments. Some cutscenes take place during the middle of a battle, interrupting the fight for a short time while the two characters talk, while others take place during the battle themselves. During in-game cutscenes, dialogue appears at the bottom of the screen as the player fights, and what each character says depends on how the match is going. The player can also issue one-hit KOs in story mode by dealing the blow used to kill their opponent in the source material. The story mode is also significantly shorter than previous installments (missing battles such as Piccolo vs. Cell, and Gohan vs. Super Buu).
- A new Z-Point system replaces the leveling system from Budokai Tenkaichi 2. The more Z-Points a character has, the more Z-Items can be equipped.
- The Wii port of Budokai Tenkaichi 3 can be played using several different control setups, and is not restricted to the console's Wii Remote and Nunchuk alone. Instead, the player can choose to use the Classic Controller or the GameCube controller, as well. The Classic Controller set up has been best received by critics, whom cite the Wii Remote as a fun method of play for casual gamers, but one that does not always maintain the responsiveness for hardcore gameplay.
Playable characters
Each character in the game is based on their anime counterparts, their voice actors also partaking in the development of the game whenever possible. Each character has attacks and fighting styles more-or-less derived from the source material, for example Goku's Kamehameha and Vegeta's Galick Gun. Certain fighters also have abilities, or the lack thereof, exclusive only to a small group of characters. Also, certain characters cannot fly in the series, and thus slowly descend back to the ground after taking flight in Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (however, a Flight Z-Item is available for use by these characters, removing this restriction).
The following represents the characters as they are ordered in the Character Select menu. Additional transformations appear in small text directly below the character to which they belong. Some characters are only playable in unabridged transformations, meaning they cannot revert to any preceding forms and are only able to progress in the transformation cycle. For example, Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta, is a character separate from all other incarnations of Vegeta in the game, thus none of these other Vegeta characters can assume the transformation, nor can Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta return to his base form. The character's only transformation option is to progress to Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta. Characters who are only playable in unabridged forms have the title of their transformation listed in parenthesized small text beside their name.

Reception and Sales
The PlayStation 2 port of the game received a 32 out of 40 from the game magazine Famitsu, while The Magic Box ranked the Wii version 33 out of 40.[4] IGN awarded both versions of the game an 8 out of 10, their only complaints being the comparatively underwhelming story mode (in comparison to Budokai Tenkaichi 2), gimmicky Disc Fusion function and the lag experienced while playing online through the Wii's Wi-Fi connection.
The game has sold 3,990,000 units on the PS2 and Wii combined, with the PS2 version selling 3,000,000 units, and the Wii version selling 990,000 units, as of January 18, 2014.[5]
- If Piccolo enters a tournament, his screen name will be MaJunior, as it originally was in the series. In a similar fashion, the screen name will be Shin if one enters the tournament as Supreme Kai.
- If one waits a while at the menu screen of the story mode, various characters will occasionally show up and engage in a conversation with Goku, such as Piccolo and Krillin.
- When Super Saiyan 4 Goku powers up against Baby Vegeta in story mode, he will sound like Kid Goku (GT).
- If you wait for a while in Duel Mode, Nappa will ask Vegeta: "Hey uh... Think if I went Super Saiyan, my goatee would grow?"
- Saiyan characters that can become Great Apes by creating a Power Ball do so even in stages that have a full moon.
- Bardock is one of the characters that has to use a full moon to turn into a Great Ape, which goes against the Ocean dub of DBZ in which Vegeta says that Bardock invented the Power Ball technique, this was however a major dub mistake that has long since been abandoned.
- Vegeta (Scouter)'s second and third attires have no tail, but he can still transform into a Great Ape.
- Like in Budokai Tenkaichi 1 and 2, Cell in any form uses his "Imperfect form" pain sounds when hit.
- If one fires Android 18's Destructo Disk at Krillin and he uses his as soon as 18's disks are about to make contact, Krillin will summon pink disks instead of his yellow ones.
- Goku's profile says that he fought Pikkon in his Super Saiyan 2 transformation, which did not appear to be the case in the anime. Though they may have fought with Goku in this form during the 7 years between the Cell Saga and Buu Saga, off-camera.
- In the Majin Buu Saga, the Destined Battle: Goku vs. Vegeta, the description says "puroposely" instead of "purposely", even when the voice says "purposely" correctly.
- Majin Buu's Character Introduction says "In Dragon Ball GT, Buu fights against" and ends there, leaving that info missing.
- Gogeta (Super Saiyan 4) Character Introduction reads "He is a warrior without peer, and demonstrates this by performing this by performing his ultimate move the "Big Bang Kamehameha", repeating the "this by performing".
- When on the character selection, Vegito is spelled with an "I", but on the transformation options for Vegeta (Second Form) and Goku (End), it is spelled "Vegeto".
- Sometimes when Shenron or Ultimate Shenron is about to grant a wish, he will say "That is a wish I cannot grant." Yet, he still grants it.
- In the Wii version of the game, Giru is referred to as both Gill and Giru.
- When Goku (GT) uses the Solar Flare, he says it as it is said in Japanese: "Taiyoken".
- When Goku (GT) uses the Spirit Bomb, it is mistakenly called Spirit Ball, possibly mistranslated due to its original name in Japanese, Genkidama, whose translation is the latter.
- When Baby Vegeta uses the Final Flash, he yells "Big Bang Attack", just like he does in the anime.
- Nuova Shenron is spelled two ways. On the character selection it is spelled Nuova Shenron, but in the GT saga, the subtitles for Goku spell it Nova Shenron.
- When GT Kid Goku turns Super Saiyan 4 against Nuova Shenron in Story Mode, Goku's voice will still be a kid in the in-game cutscene.
- In Dragon History, during the fight with Nam, Mr. Satan is shown on the signs and blimps even though he was not the champion yet.
- In information about characters, Chi-Chi says about Grandpa Gohan that she would like to have met him. However, she indeed met him in the last episodes of Dragon Ball. The game might be disregarding this, though, as it was anime-only filler.
- Frieza's move "You Might Die This Time" is mistakenly called "I Might Die This Time". This error is fixed in later games.
- Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta's 2nd "color" turns his hair silver, which looks similar to the fan-made Super Saiyan 5. This color is also an option for SS4 Gogeta in Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi.
- Whenever a Great Ape throws a rock, it is spelled "Gigant" instead of "Gigantic".
- When Goku (Mid) uses the 20x Kaio-ken Kamehameha, the technique's name appears spelled "20x Kaiken Kamehameha" on the screen.
- In the Italian translation of the game, during the intro of the "Dragon Fist Explosion! If Goku doesn't, who will?", the game states that "Goku explodes with a new special attack to stop Majin Buu" when it should say Hirudegarn.

Richmond, Va., Native Makes Transition from IBS, Inc., to New Company that Will Improve the Health of Golf Course Industry
RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Mark Williams has been named director of client services for Play18 Solutions. Williams had been director of national accounts at IBS, Inc., before its division created Play18 Solutions in December 2013.
In his new role, Williams will manage all client relationships for Play18 Solutions, a data-driven marketing and operations solutions company serving the semi-private, resort and daily fee golf course industry.
"We're excited to have an industry veteran like Mark in this role," said Play18 Solutions CEO Brett Darrow. "Mark has a proven track record of success and a high level of enthusiasm."
Unlike other industry providers who implement a barter system with a course's premier tee times and then resell them at dramatically reduced prices, Play18 Solutions replaces the dependence on a barter system with a performance-based pricing structure, allowing courses to keep their pricing structure intact.
"I'm pleased to be part of a company that will improve the health of an entire industry," said Williams. "Play18 Solutions will increase rounds and revenue while allowing courses to retain control of their pricing structure and customer data."
Williams worked at IBS for 10 years, moving from inside sales to director of national accounts.
Prior to IBS, Williams worked as a desktop analyst for Capital One Financial Services. The Richmond, Va., native earned a bachelor of science degree from Virginia Tech.

In Brennan's Private Sector Stint, a Chinese Connection
John Brennan, President Obama's nominee to be director of the CIA, like many government employees took a three-year turn through the private sector before rejoining the administration – but it was nothing like the blandly profitable corporate stints of other federal bureaucrats.
When Brennan went to work for a private intelligence contractor called The Analysis Corporation, he entered a murky milieu of transnational private spy firms with taxpayer-fueled profits. And he found himself working for a Ferrari-driving foreign boss who made much of his money on the dangerous streets of Iraq.
In that world, Brennan was forced to deal with a situation he would never have faced in his earlier days at the CIA: Brennan's corporate parent was looking for lucrative contracts from Chinese state-owned companies at the same time Brennan's unit worked on sensitive US intelligence issues in Washington.
Brennan wound up as an employee inside a multi-layered company with offices in Baghdad, where it sought sensitive security business from the Iraqi government; suburban Virginia, where it sought sensitive intelligence business from the US government: and Beijing, where it sought sensitive security business from the Chinese that involved providing physical security and gathering information about potential security threats for Chinese business interests in Iraq.
No one contacted by CNBC for this story suggested Brennan did anything inappropriate during his stint in the private sector. But the choices he made, and the ways Brennan navigated the world he found himself in, say much about Brennan the man, and also about a hidden but extremely profitable industry the US government has allowed to grow up around its intelligence establishment – and around the world.
In 2005, between stints as a high-ranking CIA officer and one of the Obama Administration's top homeland security and counterterrorism experts, Brennan went to work for the little-known Virginia government contracting firm known as The Analysis Corporation. In a convoluted corporate structure, that company was already owned by another entity, and, in 2007, would be snapped up by yet a third firm. During that time, Brennan became an employee in a subsidiary of a London-based security firm controlled by a holding company based in Luxembourg.
According to a corporate document filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Brennan was given a compensation package at The Analysis Corporation worth more than $750,000 in 2008, one of just over three years he spent at the McLean, Va., based company. That's not an enormous salary by corporate standards, but it would have been a lot more than the top range of the federal government's senior executive service that guides CIA pay, which tops out at around $200,000 per year.
Often when companies are acquired senior executives receive payments upon change of corporate control, or to reimburse them for equity they hold in the purchased company. The White House and Brennan's former company both declined to say whether Brennan received any such payments when the company he worked for was sold in 2007.
"In 2009 when he chose to rejoin the government as the President's top adviser on counter-terrorism he did so out of a sense loyalty to the country, and as a commitment to keep our nation safe," said Eric Schultz, a White House spokesman. "At that time, the relevant information regarding Brennan's prior work experience was disclosed and met the president's commitment to the highest ethics standards."
A Highly Regarded Firm
The Analysis Corporation was founded in 1990 and quickly grew into an intelligence contracting powerhouse. Brennan joined the firm as president and CEO in late 2005, moving into a bland suburban office park in McLean, VA just down the road from CIA headquarters.
People familiar with the firm say The Analysis Corporation was highly regarded for its abilities to sift through massive computer databases for information. Contracting documents show the firm worked for the State Department, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the FBI and others. But specific details of that work are hard to come by. (Related: What Does TAC Do?)
What is clear is that Brennan remained personally close with his former colleagues in the intelligence community at the same time his company was looking for contracts in the intelligence world.
In 2007, Brennan threw a book party at The Analysis Corporation's McLean, VA headquarters for former CIA Director George Tenet that was attended by more than 600 current and former members of the US intelligence community. A press release touting the event noted that the crowd was so enthusiastic that some party-goers waited in line for as many as four hours for Tenet to personally sign their copies of his book.
"Mr. Tenet wanted this event to be exclusively for intelligence officers, their families, and alumni," Brennan said in the press release after the party. The company said it purchased a large number of copies of Tenet's book, selling them for $20 each to attendee and raising over $7,000 for the CIA Officers Memorial Foundation, a non-profit that supports children and spouses of CIA officers killed in the line of duty.
It was connections like those – and a long list of US federal government contracts – that made The Analysis Corporation (and its parent corporation called SFA, Inc.) a tempting acquisition target for an aggressive young British entrepreneur and former Royal Marine named Damian Perl.
According to several people who worked there, by 2007, Perl's company Global Strategies Group was flush with cash from its security business in Iraq, where it worked for the Iraqi and US governments to provide specially trained soldiers and guards to secure Baghdad International Airport, protect dignitaries, move cash inside the country, and guard the Green Zone.
Security work in Iraq became an extremely profitable business as US taxpayers and the nascent Iraqi government poured money into the rebuilding effort. "The margins were outrageous," said a former employee. The company often hired Gurkhas, Nepalese veterans of the British military, to provide security services in the violence-prone country.
The business has made Damian Perl a wealthy man. Today, several former employees say he owns multiple Ferraris, and has a fondness for fast cars. They say he owns homes in several locations around the world and makes his permanent residence in a Swiss mountain village.
'Guns, Gates and Gurkhas'
A spokesman for Global Strategies Group, Tim Matthews, declined to respond to a detailed list of questions from CNBC for this article. In an emailed statement, he said, "to the extent that your questions concern security or internal business issues relating to the GLOBAL Group of Companies or any individuals associated with GLOBAL, it is our general practice not to comment on such matters."
By 2007 Perl, a former employee says, needed a foothold in the United States to expand his contracting business with the US government. Another former employee says Perl soon set his eyes on Brennan's firm. "The Analysis Corporation was the crown jewel of SFA," said this former employee. "We bought SFA because of The Analysis Corporation." Says a third, "the profits on that [Iraq security] business were almost obscenely big, but there were risks associated with that. [Perl] wanted to get out of the 'Guns, Gates and Gurkhas' business."
By the time Global Strategies Group took over Brennan's firm in 2007, Global had been involved in one sticky situation in Baghdad that attracted the attention of the press.
In 2006, The Washington Post reported that Global was engaged in a long-running dispute with its client, the Iraqi Transportation Ministry, over payment for Global's security forces protecting Baghdad International Airport. The firm sought payment of overdue fees of about $3 million per month totaling about $25 million, and in the course of the dispute Global twice withdrew its employees and threatened to abandon the project unless it was paid, the Post reported. During a Global work stoppage in September of 2008, U.S. soldiers were deployed to secure the airport, which was a vital link to the outsider world for the war-torn country. "Global had a work stoppage, and it created a cycle of anxieties from the US government to the Iraqis," said a former company employee.
By 2007, several former employees say Global Strategies Group had opened an office in Beijing in an effort to win security contracts from Chinese state-owned corporations. Setting up shop in Towercrest International Plaza in the foreign embassy-heavy Chaoyang District of Beijing, employees began building relationships with Chinese officials, in the hopes of winning security contracts.
A former employee said that Global Strategies Group internally discussed the possibility of selling sensitive intelligence software to the Chinese or other foreign entities but ultimately did not attempt to sell such software. "We tried to test the ability of The Analysis Corporation to export their technology, but it was covered by military secrecy export restrictions. Any attempt to exploit any technology was stopped right away."
Global's sales pitch for security work to the Chinese presented Brennan, a veteran CIA officer working on sensitive intelligence matters, with a dilemma. According to one former employee, the eagerness for new business with the Chinese caused tensions between the former US intelligence agents at The Analysis Corporation and their corporate boss in England. "Damian Perl wanted to go global," the employee said. "And all the people like John Brennan were going: 'What the hell? We can't sell this stuff to the Chinese.'" None of the sources contacted by CNBC suggested that Global attempted to sell sensitive intelligence software from The Analysis Corporation to Chinese firms.
Asked about Global's Chinese office by CNBC, an administration official said in an email that it "seems like John Brennan did the right thing at the time – objected to any conflicts." The official, who asked not to be named, also noted that in 2007, when SFA was acquired by Global, Brennan became a director on the company's proxy board. "The proxy board was composed of executives from the US-based subsidiary companies and was established to ensure that classified US government information was fire-walled from the UK-based parent corporation," the official said.
The administration official noted that the initial acquisition of Brennan's company by Global Strategy Group in 2007 was reviewed and approved by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, a body set up to scrutinize foreign acquisitions of sensitive American firms and prevent those that might transfer valuable technology.
A spokesperson for another successor corporation to The Analysis Corporation-- a spin-off entity that is now known as Sotera Defense Solutions – said the firm worked with the Department of Defense's Defense Security Service to implement a Special Security Agreement to establish a strict set of controls designed to protect U.S. national security interests in a foreign owned company.
"For the duration of our ownership by Global Strategies Group, the U.S. portions of the business … never had any contracts with any foreign entities or governments by itself or through any parent company or partner," said Lauren Peduzzi, the director of communications for Sotera Defense Solutions. "Throughout our history, Sotera Defense Solutions has been committed to a culture of ethics and integrity in conducting its business as a responsible member of the national security community."
The idea of working for the Chinese and Americans at the same time may have been unworkable from the start, although Global Strategies Group won at least one security contract with the China National Petroleum Corporation, sources familiar with the company said. "It was all a massive conflict of interest, and it was all a bit weird," a former employee said. "I believe the Chinese thought we were working for the CIA." Former employees said the Global Strategies Group office in Beijing was closed several years later. The firm's website says the company today maintains offices in Tokyo, Singapore and Kabul as well as in the Middle East, Africa and North America.
Brennan himself left the firm the same year – taking a job in the Obama administration in soon after the new president's election in January of 2009. On Thursday the Senate Intelligence Committee will consider his nomination to be Director of the CIA. If he's confirmed, Brennan will complete a full turn through the private intelligence revolving door – and he will have oversight over contracts to companies very much like the one he used to work for.

Kroger CEO David Dillon told an investor conference Tuesday that the retailer would be aggressive in its future growth strategy, willing to invest in increased square footage and store penetration in existing markets, as well as entering new markets.
The company said it would increase capital spending by an incremental $200 million annually to support the strategy, and it approved a $500 million share buyback program.
"Our proven strategy and market position provide a tremendous platform to accelerate growth and increase value creation for Kroger shareholders," Dillon told the audience, according to a news release from Kroger. "We are confident that Kroger's unmatched knowledge of the customer and disciplined approach to deploying capital will drive growth at attractive levels of return. We will continue to use our strong free cash flow to deliver shareholder value through actions such as our recent 30 percent dividend increase and the continuation of our substantial share repurchase program."
Kroger raised its long-term earnings outlook from 6-8 percent growth to 8-11 percent growth, on top of its current 2.5 percent dividend.
The company will selectively expand its current store base, the release said, but will also find other ways to drive growth, including enhancing its digital and mobile platforms, and testing new store formats (to provide greater access and shopping flexibility to customers."
Kroger recently opened a Marketplace store in Ohio where it was testing out apparel sales in addition to grocery.
"Selling food and clothing proved to be successful in Portland, Oregon," Kroger spokeswoman Jackie Siekmann told the Mansfield News Journal. "We are testing the concept to see if it will fare well here in the Midwest."

Workers Log An Extra 16 Days A Year, Gobbling Lunch At Desk
It's no secret that Americans are working longer and harder than ever. Now, a new poll shows more of us are forgoing the lunch hour and opting instead for a quick bite huddled over our keyboards.
A recent survey of workers found that 62 percent of those with desk jobs typically ate lunch at their desks. The most common reason given was to save time and money, according to the 2011 study by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and Conagra Foods, which focused on food safety.
And all that time adds up. A similar study in Britain found that workers who forgo a standard 60-minute lunch break by eating at their desks will work an extra 128 hours a year, or an additional 16 workdays.
In the U.S. there is no federal law requiring companies to provide lunch breaks, but 22 states have meal-break laws, USA Today notes.
Beyond saving money, Americans are keen on keeping their jobs and being more productive, Cynthia Fukami, a management professor at the University of Denver told the Denver Post.
But, she warns, "It may look like you're getting more done, but eventually workers burn out, so breaks are good."
More: Top 10 Soft Skills For Job Hunters
Of course, lunch breaks aren't the only workplace tradition falling by the wayside. Americans' prized vacations also aren't immune to their desire to keep up on work.
Results from a poll of more than 1,300 adults due out next week show that 52 percent of workers expect to work during their summer vacations, up 6 percentage points from a similar survey taken a year ago.
Regardless of whether they work full- or part-time, or are self employed, respondents to the 2012 poll, conducted by Harris Interactive for virtual-meetings software-maker TeamViewer, said that they expect to perform a variety of tasks while on vacation.
Among the duties that workers anticipated doing while vacationing this summer are:
- Reading work-related emails -- reported by 30 percent of respondents.
- Receiving work-related phone calls -- 23 percent.
- Receiving work-related text messages -- 18 percent.
- Being asked to do work by a boss, client or colleague -- 13 percent.

Man Runs Truck Into CSPD Patrol Unit, Resists Arrest
Posted: 8:31 AM Jun 4, 2012
Reporter: Michael Oder
A College Station man is in the Brazos County Jail after falling asleep in his running truck, then resisting arrest when officers tried to remove him from the vehicle.
33-year-old Romualdo Ray Dejesus was arrested for Driving While Intoxicated and Resisting Arrest early Sunday morning. Officers responded to the intersection of Harvey Mitchell Parkway and F&B Road around before 2:30am. They found Dejesus unconscious behind the wheel of his gray GMC pickup truck with his foot on the brake pedal. College Station Officer Sean Beatty parked his patrol unit in front of the truck in case the truck pulled away.
When Sgt. Beatty woke Dejesus up, he let off of the brake pedal, letting his truck hit Beatty's car. According to the police report, Dejesus then became confrontational and uncooperative.
It took two officers to arrest Dejesus. He was taken to the Brazos County Jail and charged with Driving While Intoxicated and Resisting Arrest. He's currently being held on $6,000 bond.
This isn't his first run in with law enforcement either. Dejesus was arrested for DWI back in 2008 and resisting arrest in 2002 & 2003.

I agree that Leilani is no more of a mouthful than Layani, they're still both three syllables. Out of all of the names you mentioned, Leilani is by far my favorite. I really, really strongly dislike Leiani, Leiarni, and Laarni. If you do choose to invent something, Layani and Layarni look the best, but still aren't very pleasant looking or sounding to me. What about Leila, Laila, or Layla? It's a real name that means "night" in Arabic, and was the name of a main character in a series of romantic poems that became popular in Arabia and Persia.

Out of the spellings you've suggested, I would choose Layani, as I think this is the simplest way to get to the pronounciation you want. However you probably won't find much support for creative spellings on this site!
One name that sounds similar to Layani is Leonie (Lee-oh-nee), which is still unusual and very pretty.
Alternatively, Leiarna could be substituted for Leona (Le-oh-na), Liana/Lianna or Leana/Leanna (Lee-ah-na).My Top 10 Girls Names: Astrid, Elara, Evelyn, Hannah, Hester, Lorna, Megan, Ophelia, Sylvia, Tabitha

I would keep Leilani but come up with an easier nickname.
Lily, Laney/Lani, Leila.
I agree as the alliteration is not for everyone.
What about Noelani? It's pretty similar.
and btw berries are name purists so this would be the wrong place to be asking for the best spelling variations or alternations of a name.I don't always follow up on my comments so feel free to PM me if you want to further discuss them

Comments about Lucky Brand Lucky Layla Burgundy Horn:
I just recieved these and I couldn't be any happier! As the previous reviewer stated, the burgundy is very true to the images shown. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the very edge and interior of the frame are a lovely white/chocolate swirl coloring. I imagine this would be the burgundy/"horn" that is used to decribe the color of this frame. The fit is true to size and they can be easily adjusted around the ears. These are versatile, classy and fun frames that can easily be worn every day.

Jennifer Hsu, Video Producer, WNYC Interactive
Jennifer Hsu produces videos about news and culture for WNYC. She is the creator of the ongoing Know Your Neighbor video series of intimate portraits about living in New York City.
A couple of years ago, John Parker decided to build an incubator in his Brooklyn home to start making tempeh from scratch.
Since then, it has turned into a vocation. Parker spends literally dozens of hours a week cracking, boiling, inoculating and incubating to create his fermented soybean cakes. The hardest part is making sure his incubator doesn't overheat. "Sometimes I'm up all night checking on my little tempeh babies," he says.
Is anyone selling homemade tempeh? I love love love tempeh but don't know anywhere to get it homemade. Bet it's awesome!
I'm coming to NYC the first week of December and a, hoping to connect with John Parker and/or the folks at Grown in Brooklyn (Barry's Tempeh) since there seems to be a mutual respect for each others tempeh. I've been making consistent small batches but want to start producing more. My contact information can be found at first(dot) last name(at)gmail
How thankful too have found this............thank you and blessings.
Please stay in touch!
@Anne, tempeh isn't alcoholic :)
@grown in Brooklyn, how do I get in touch? I'd love to meet you and talk tempeh.
John Parker
Verrrry interesting! How did it get it s name and where did you learn about it? If it is fermented, is it alcohlic? If so, are you bootleging?
Hey we just started making fresh tempeh in Brooklyn. Using fresh beans and grains grown locally. It is the most wonderful tempeh you can't find anywhere (except maybe john). We are currently making sprouted oat - malted barley - soy tempeh, which is our favorite...get in touch
nice one
i'm a big fan of tempeh
how can i try some John Parker?
Awesome. Now I need to look up tempeh, learn exactly what it is.
Great Story, great photography, great neighbor telling his great story. I look for more in the future. Thanks.

Here's how RW members rated this race (65 votes).
In short: If you manage a pb here you are not trying hard enough on the flat runs. An enjoyable run which once again has been blessed with glorious weather.Date of review: April 17, 2011
In short: Heat and hills but at least it wasn't 26.2 milesIn full: My first time at Frenchay and thoroughly enjoyed it (until the final gruelling hill). Excellent organisation. I wish I'd entered in advance and would have picked up the nice t-shirts bearing runners names. It was pretty warm towards midday. I was thankful nit be running London this year. Well done to the organisers for an excellent race.Date of review: April 17, 2011
In short: post race problemsIn full: Enjoyed the race and well organised on the day. Only problem seems to be the web page and results (the company it gives as doing the chip timing know nothing about it at all!)Oh and yet ANOTHER chip timed race that varies by more than half a minute from my Garmin - how is this possible when with non chip races it agrees exactly with the time keepers?Date of review: April 21, 2010
In short: A nice undulating course with some lovely scenery.Date of review: April 21, 2010
In short: A well organised and thoroughly enjoyable race with a few inclines thrown in for good measure. Nice commerative mug at end, used for a well earned cup of tea.Date of review: April 18, 2010
In short: Inclines to die for...In full: After a fast lap of the hospital grounds you descend down the fiendishly steep Blackberry Hill - but you do have to run back up it 6 miles later! A course that twists, turn, climbs, & descends through some lovely parts of the Bristol suburbs. It's well worth the trip - honest!Date of review: August 31, 2009
In short: Lovely race and almost PBIn full: Wonderful race (almost missed, by long queues for single male cubicle)Date of review: May 12, 2009
In short: A great 10km for all standards although first timers be warned!In full: Although I'm naturally biased as it is my local event I do love the Frenchay 10km. It has something for everyone with flat sections that keep you going and hilly challenges which give you a real sense of achievement. For a smallish local event with growing numbers of entrants each year the Frenchay 10km still has a great feel and atmosphere. The comemorative mug to finish is a nice touch and the chip timings (although basic) are a good addition. I don't know anyone who has run the event who has wanted to come back; my brother even travels from Essex each year to compete. Roll on 2010 and beyond. Date of review: April 29, 2009
In short: Just when you think you might be on for a PB they go and stick a hill in it.In full: Really enjoyable race. I'd been warned about the hill at the end, but it still came as a nasty surprise. That said, this can be very fast in places. Well organised and marshalled, but I didn't see any kilometre markers until 7k. Otherwise a really good run with a nice mixture of club and non-club runners.Date of review: April 26, 2009
In short: Well organised and very friendlyIn full: First time I have done my "local" race as I live outside the area now, saw a few people I knew. Weather excellent and made it for me. Organisation excellent and everyone v friendly, and the hills are nowhere near as bad as I expected (and this was my first hilly race). Highly recommended. Nice to get a useful mug rather than a medal. Fantastic to get the chip time just a few minutes after finishing, highly efficient,can't wait to do it again next year and better my time.Date of review: April 20, 2009

By accident, I closed my sticky notes in Windows. Is there any way to recover them?
There will still be something of a ghost remaining in the file where Sticky Notes save the notes to. This can be found in
I was able to recover a deleted note from there simply by searching for a part of its contents and the plain text is usually pretty good copyable from there, unless you have some heavy formatting in the middle of it—then you have to deal with RTF. :-) |
It is much too easy to delete the sticky notes. Here are two ways to recover: 2) If your Windows 7 version supports it, right click on the folder and select "Restore Previous Versions" This is useful for getting back a note from yesterday, last week, etc. Since clicking the [X] on the note actually deletes it, rather than just closing the note, it can be useful to turn on the Sticky Note delete warning. Open the Registry Editor and navigate to the following key : Either delete the value PROMPT_ON_DELETE or set its value to 1. |
you can restore it to the previous version available

Missed appointments raise costs
by Claude Solnik Published: November 18, 2010
Tags: dermatologists, doctors, Long Island, Ronkonkoma, skin cancer, treatment
Dermatologists typically see business drop off during a down economy, because insurers won't pay for cosmetic procedures. So, few people would be surprised to hear that fewer patients are opting for microdermabrasion. But Dr. Misbah Khan, a dermatologist at Sadick Dermatology in Great Neck and Manhattan, has found something else: Patients are canceling appointments for [...]

Darren - Pm sent.
Welcome decaturvader,
This is a really great forum!
Got your PM.
How much does a completed helmet roughly weigh?
looks cool,
i love clones and stormies.
Truly awesome!
ok so question how much for just the suit and no helmet cuz i thinking of getting a helmet from another maker, so was wondering if this is even possible?
Any plans for a commander cody kit run?
Darren bought the Cody stuff from others and put it together...check out clonetroopers.net man
Yes, that is correct. I didn't make the Cody stuff.
It was all collected by other prop builders. All of there accessories (helmet, jetpack, shoulderbells, ect.) are all top quality so I have no plans of making them myself and selling them. If you wanted to put a Cody together my base suit would work great. I can pass along the other info via PM.
Thanks, Darren
Very Nice work here i must say!
I would just like to say that I think you are so skilled at your craft Darren. Every piece you have put out has just floored me.
Amazing work Darren! Can't wait to see some of your work in person someday!
