Thanks for your nice comments.
I gave the photos this effect (it's supposed to be a "water" effect) because they had such a low resolution (esp. the front cover picture). I couldn't find a better way to solve this problem.
If anyone has high resolution scans of those pictures - I could change the pictures.

Aberdeen Central's Alexis Clark recieves a medal for 18th place in the vault competition during the Class AA State Gymnastics Championships at Stevens High School in Rapid City. (Benjamin Brayfield, Rapid City Journal / February 16, 2013) |
RAPID CITY -- Four Aberdeen Central gymnasts joined the parade to the medal stand on Saturday at the individual portion of the State AA Gymnastics Meet.
Champions were crowned in all four individual events and all around, and medals were awarded to the top 20 competitors in each category.
Lynne Hanten, senior at Watertown, won the balance beam with a mark of 9.75. Two Christensen sisters from Rapid City Central gathered up the rest of the individual honors. Eighth-grader Chelsey Christensen won the floor exercise with a score of 9.85. Junior Colette Christensen took highest honors in the uneven bars (9.85), vault (9.8) and all around (38.775). Chelsey Christensen finished second in the all around, just .5 behind her sister.
The Golden Eagles picked up medals in three individual events and the all around. Junior Alexis Clark tied for 16th in the vault with an 8.9, tied for 20th in the floor exercise with 9.0 and tied for 20th in the bars with 8.475. Senior Larissa Swanson finished her career with a bang and a 16th-place tie in the vault at 8.9. Aimee Padgett finished 15th on the uneven bars with a mark of 8.7.
"They all did really good," said Aberdeen coach Jennifer Deutsch. "You get a little nervous about how the girls will respond after a long day (Friday) and a new set up. I was worried that they would be fatigued, but they were fine. That's a tribute to the conditioning we did and the confidence we have in our skills. I told the girls, 'This is your day. Go out and do the best for you.' "
The highest placer on the day for the Golden Eagles was Taylor Schweitzer with a 9.2 on vault for a fifth-place tie.
"Alexis had a great day and Aimee did a good job. Taylor got in the top five which is awesome. Larissa, our senior, had a great meet. She did her best. She's content with how she went out. It was a very fun day."
Other Aberdeen competitors were Tessa Kimbler on uneven bars, Hannah Langbehn in floor exercise and Jenny Janish on vault.
"Tessa had a great routine," said Deutsch. "Being able to compete on individual day as an eighth-grader is awesome. Hannah did a great job like normal and Jenny vaulted well."

Bryan Perilman shoulda known better.
He and his wife were flying from Fort Lauderdale to New York this summer on Spirit Airlines, but the their flight was canceled because of mechanical problems. When a representative offered to fly the couple on Delta Air Lines if they accepted a voucher, he should have known to ask: Is there a catch?
"A Spirit representative offered us two free round trips each," says Perilman. "More than fair, we thought."
But they thought wrong.

Lincoln International (Special Situations Group) represents the insolvency administrator (White & Case) in the sale of insolvent Nier GmbH (Nier) to Vollmann Group and in the carve-out of Nier's medical engineering business to GPE Holding
Frankfurt, October 2006 - The insolvency administrator with the acceptance of the main creditors has sold the automotive business of insolvent automotive supplier Nier GmbH by way of an asset-deal to an affiliate of Vollmann Group and disposed Nier's Non-Core business unit Nier MBW Lübeck (medical engineering and prototyping business) to GPE-Holding by way of a carve-out.
Nier GmbH is a leading Tier-2 automotive supplier specialised in the production of precision parts based on hot-and cold-rolled flat steel products. The Company's service range enfolds proprietary prototyping, tool building as well as the development of customised assembly lines / special machines for large-scale series production. NIER's product offerings include small pilot series, niche and large-scale series of stamped and drawn parts as well as assembly components. The Company serves more than 30 renowned clients in the automotive sector and one main client in the field of medical engineering. At the time of filing for insolvency, the Company operated at three German production locations and generated revenues of EUR 73m in FY 2005.
Following a separate LI M&A approach for Nier's non-core operations in the area of medical engineering and prototype production, Nier's business unit Nier MBW Lübeck was successfully divested by way of a carve-out to GPE Holding in June 2006, i.a. ensuring a complete staff takeover at Nier's Lübeck plant.
In October 2006, the business of Nier GmbH was successfully sold by way of an asset deal to an affiliate of Vollmann Group. Throughout the process, Lincoln's Special Situations team approached more than 70 relevant investors (strategic investors/ relevant financial investors) and conducted a parallel process leadership including documentations for an Asset-Deal Scenario and an investor solution within the scope of insolvency proceedings (share deal + quota work-out of liabilities). In parallel, a sustainable increase of productivity and the Company's cash flows position could be achieved through ongoing operating and structural restructuring measures implemented by the administrator in the course of the ongoing insolvency proceedings (i.e. sale of non-core activities and relocation of production processes).
By maintaining an ongoing bidding competition, an above average valuation for the creditors and a sustainable insurance of more than 400 employment positions at Nier Group's Remscheid, Hohenlockstedt and Lübeck locations could be achieved.
Vollmann Group produces high quality components and assemblies at four sites in Germany. The Company's clients mainly derive from the automotive supply industry, the lighting industry and the telecommunications industry. Applied basic technologies include injection moulding and metal forming. The acquisition of Nier significantly strengthens the Company's competitive positioning by adding Nier's complementary metal forming capacities and automotive product offerings. Combined sales of Vollmann and Nier's automotive business will exceed Euro 120 million.
GPE Holding (GANDERKE PLAST ENGINEERING) is active in the area of plastic moulding and the assembling of medical equipment at two sites in Germany.

Penn State's campsite outside Beaver Stadium, where students wait for tickets to home football games, has long been known as Paternoville. That name is a bit problematic now that Paterno's role in covering up the Jerry Sandusky scandal has become clear, so the campsite decided to change its name to Nittanyville.
↵That's interesting enough. But the fan reaction to the name change ... oh my. Facebook lit up once the group announced the change on its page. A sampling:
↵↵↵Will you change it back to Paternoville when JVP's name is eventually cleared?
↵Why not just call it Freehdomtown, since you obviously put your faith in a badly discredited and imperfect voice.
↵have all you paterno supporters actually read the report yet?
↵What a bunch of cowardly a**holes!! You deserve to burn in hell!!!
↵At least the BOT is doing the right thing on this matter and waiting for all legal battles to conclude before making rash decisions and caving to media pressures.... or so they say. Probably the smart thing to do. Ill await your comments when Joe is vindicated. Then what?
↵one of the most attractive qualities of penn state is loyalty and tradition. This club doesnt deserve the name.
↵BULLS***..... GOODBYE
↵WE are Penn State. YOU are NOT!
↵yes yes yessssssssss worship a dead man who stood idly by with complete knowledge and did pretty much nothing for decades as one of his loyal friends molested children. all because of FOOOOOTBAWWWWWWWWWWWWW.
Commenters are about 90 percent opposed to the move. Most of us who are outside the Penn State community will probably find that pretty amazing.

Durbin wants more police departments to trace guns
WASHINGTON, DC (AP) - U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin wants Illinois police departments to use a federal firearms tracing system that can tell investigators the chain of custody of a gun from the manufacturer to the first legal purchaser.
Durbin says fewer than half of Illinois' more than 800 police departments use the eTrace program of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. He said Monday he will be introducing legislation creating an incentive for police to use eTrace.
The legislation would require police departments seeking federal COPS grants to tell the federal government how many crime guns they've recovered. They would have to report how many were submitted to ATF for tracing and why any recovered guns were not submitted.
COPS grants are designed to encourage the development of community policing programs.
Lawmakers call on Governor Quinn to call for around-the-clock pension talks
CHICAGO (AP) - Former White House chief of staff Bill Daley is calling on Gov. Pat Quinn to bring the state's legislative leaders together for around-the-clock talks to resolve the state's $97 billion pension shortfall.
At a news conference on Monday, Daley urged Quinn to get more aggressive in trying to solve the worst-in-the-nation crisis by bringing legislative leaders to the governor's mansion in Springfield to negotiate until they reach some kind of deal.
Daley has formed an exploratory committee as he considers running against Quinn in next spring's Democratic primary.
Daley says the governor is wasting time and dismissed Quinn's suspension of lawmakers' pay until they come up with a solution to the crisis as a gimmick that may even be unconstitutional.
Quinn OKs new rules for tethering dogs outdoors in Illinois
CHICAGO (AP) - Gov. Pat Quinn has signed into law new rules for tethering a dog outside.
Quinn says the legislation ensures dogs are treated humanely.
The Illinois Democrat says dogs bring unconditional love and comfort to their owners' lives and become "part of our families." He says the new law makes sure "our pets receive the same love and care they give us."
The measure requires the leash used to tether a dog to be at least 10 feet long and to not exceed one-eighth of a dog's body weight. It also says people who don't provide sufficient food, water, shelter and veterinary care could be subject to up to six months imprisonment.
The legislation was sponsored by Rep. Dan Burke, a Chicago Democrat, and Sen. Linda Holmes, a Democrat from Aurora.
New Illinois laws support diabetes research, reporting
CHICAGO (AP) - A pair of new Illinois laws will fund diabetes research and track economic costs of the disease.
Gov. Pat Quinn signed the bills Thursday at a conference organized by the University of Chicago Medicine's Kovler Diabetes Center.
One measure creates a special license plate. Just over half of the $40 cost of the plate will go to the Diabetes Research Checkoff Fund.
House minority leader Tom Cross sponsored the bill. He hopes the license plate will serve as a "moving billboard" for diabetes awareness.
The second bill requires the Illinois State Diabetes Commission to report regularly on the economic and social costs of diabetes and efforts to prevent the disease.
The laws take effect Jan. 1.
The Illinois Department of Public Health says about 800,000 state residents have diabetes.
Battle over how to implement conceal carry continues in Illinois
EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (AP) - The state of Illinois is amplifying its argument that a federal judge reject a push by gun-rights advocates who want to be allowed to publicly carry firearms immediately, rather than waiting months under Illinois' new concealed carry law.
Under the law passed last week, Illinois State Police have about six months to set up a concealed-carry program before accepting applications. Police then have 90 days to process the forms.
Gun-rights advocate Mary Shepard and the Illinois State Rifle Association say that's unconstitutionally too long and want an East St. Louis U.S. District Judge to allow immediate concealed carry.
But Attorney General Lisa Madigan's office argued in a filing Thursday that Shepard needs to file a new complaint spelling out why the law's time allowances are unreasonable.
Illinois jobless rate increases this month
CHICAGO (AP) - The unemployment rate in Illinois increased slightly in June while manufacturers and local governments cut more jobs than they added.
The Illinois Department of Employment Security says Thursday that unemployment increased to 9.2 percent last month. That was up from 9.1 percent in May. June's figure ended two months of decreasing unemployment.
Employers around the state added a net 5,400 non-farm jobs for the month. And department Director Jay Rowell says the net 9,000 jobs added by private-sector employers is an encouraging sign that they're optimistic about the future.
Meanwhile, manufacturers cut a net 1,600 jobs for the month. Illinois' manufacturing had been one of the state's strongest employment sectors until recent months.
Construction firms added 5,400 jobs in June.
In Illinois, Obama led fight on racial profiling
WASHINGTON (AP) - More than a decade ago, then-state Sen. Barack Obama helped pass a racial profiling bill in Illinois. Now that effort is offering clues about how America's first black president feels about an issue still polarizing the U.S. months after Trayvon Martin's death.
Obama has said little about the acquittal of George Zimmerman, who was charged with killing the black teenager in Florida. Obama says the jury has spoken, but wants the nation to seek ways to prevent future tragedies.
In 2003, Obama passed a bill requiring police to keep track of the race, age and gender of drivers they pulled over. The records could then be analyzed for bias.
Obama has written about his own experiences with profiling, including being pulled over, in his words, "for no apparent reason."
Lisa Madigan's decision to not run causes ripple effect
CHICAGO (AP) - The decision by Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan to seek re-election and not run for governor has created a ripple effect among Illinois Democrats weighing 2014 bids.
State Sen. Kwame Raoul had been considering running for attorney general if Madigan didn't seek re-election. He says now that he's not sure if he'll seek another office instead or run for re-election.
The Chicago lawmaker says he first has to deal with Illinois' biggest financial problem. Raoul chairs a panel charged with addressing the state's nearly $100 billion pension crisis.
Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon had also been considering a run for attorney general, along with other statewide offices.
Campaign manager Dave Mellet says Simon will make a decision soon. He says state comptroller is among the offices she's eyeing.
Illinois state senator wants to add restrictions to conceal carry
PARK RIDGE, Ill. (AP) — An Illinois state senator wants to add churches to the list of places where concealed guns wouldn't be allowed.
Park Ridge Democrat Dan Kotowski says he doesn't agree with a provision in the state's new concealed-carry law that allows guns in churches, temples or mosques. He filed an amendment to the law Monday and says he'll push for its approval.
Illinois was the last state in the nation to approve concealed-carry legislation this month.
Kotowski is a former gun control lobbyist.
He's one of a number of lawmakers seeking changes to the gun bill, although lawmakers voted to override changes that Gov. Pat Quinn proposed last week to meet a federal court deadline.
Several other states, including Nebraska, South Carolina and North Dakota, prohibit carrying concealed guns in churches.
Ill. objects to call for immediate concealed-carry
EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (AP) - The state of Illinois is asking a federal court to reject a push by gun-rights advocates to let the state's residents start publicly toting weapons as soon as next week, rather than waiting months for implementation of a new concealed carry law.
Attorney General Lisa Madigan's office asked a judge Thursday to throw out the request filed in East St. Louis by Mary Shepard. She filed the injunction a day after lawmakers lifted the last-in-the-nation ban. The state argues Shepard needs to file a new complaint instead of a motion seeking an emergency hearing from a judge.
No hearing has been scheduled.
Shepard says an unconstitutional ban on packing pistols remains because it will be as long as nine months before the first carry permits are approved in Illinois.

Census Bureau Says One in Seven Americans Lives in Poverty
Produced by:
Poverty in America increased last year to 44 million people. One longtime advocate calls it a "national emergency." Will Washington treat it that way? How many poor people vote? Also, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's in New York for the opening of the UN, and a massive oil-company drill may be able to help rescue Chilean miners trapped 2000 feet underground for the past six weeks.

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in New York ()
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is in New York for the opening of the UN General Assembly, saying this weekend's release of Sarah Shourd should be met by what he called a comparable "humanitarian gesture" by the US. Shourd is one of three Americans arrested last year and charged with spying near the Iraq-Iran border. The US is holding several Iranians on various charges.

Census Bureau Says One in Seven Americans Lives in Poverty ()
The National Bureau of Economic Research said today the Great Recession that started in December 2007 officially ended in June of last year. But don't tell that to the 43.6 million people who are trying to live below the poverty line. That's 14.3% overall, or one in seven Americans and includes 20% of all children, 25% of blacks and Hispanics. It's the highest poverty rate since 1994, and the Census Bureau says it would have been worse except for government safety nets. Food banks, shelters and job-opportunity centers around the country tell us they're serving a new and different class of people, the recently unemployed. What's the reaction in Washington, six weeks before the November election? Will the private sector start hiring or should government create new jobs?

The Plight of the Chilean Miners ()
Yesterday Chilean President Sebastián Piñera made his fifth visit to the copper and gold mine where 33 miners have been trapped underground for more than six weeks. Novelist Isabel Allende visited, too. Two tunnels have already been drilled, but are too small for the men to be pulled some 2000 feet to the surface. Today, the men got some good news. A massive oil-company drill has reached the scene and may be able to reach them sooner than had been expected, as Gideon Long reports for the BBC.

Dear Rivy, With December coming to an end and 2013 looming, I was wondering if it is permitted to make New Year's resolutions even if it is not our New Year? Sometimes I think a mid-year refresher couldn't hurt us a bit. Is it against Jewish law to recognize this time of year as a new start? Lucky for us, teshuvah is not relegated merely to the Rosh Hashanah season. According to our tradition, each and every Rosh Chodesh (new month) is a fine time to redirect and recharge. Live it up. Grab any chance to self-reflect — it's all good. Whether it is the darkening of the days or pitter-patter of persistent precipitation, there are three burning issues keeping me up at night, things that need — shall I say — some resolute attention. I will leave worries of the financial cliff, Iran and global warming to others. Here are my three epic qualms for the New Year. The Kindness Factor. Warning: I will be invoking the Holocaust. Ten days at the International School at Yad Vashem this summer reawakened the slightly Shoah-fixated hypersensitivity to Jewish-on-Jewish animosity. Our ongoing petty in-fighting and blatant disregard for deep Jewish values of care, understanding, and empathy for one another is disheartening. After being immersed in the horrors perpetrated against our people, it simply becomes beyond comprehension why a Jew would ever purposely cause distress to a fellow Jew. Call me naïve. Call me Pollyanna. There seems to be an adequate dose of awfulness from the outside; do we need to contribute to each other's pain from the inside? I too will now ask: Why can't we all just get along? Life is too short to allow demeaning communal squabbles to run amok. Tragically, not unlike bullying, most of these squabbles are around issues of self-worth and self-esteem. Healthy folks who are comfortable with who they are rarely get into an ongoing fracas. They reserve their precious mind-space for their work, well-being and family. The diabolical shenanigans that can take over a community are rarely perpetrated by the high-minded. How to avoid being sucked in? Take that oft-spoken-of high road, draw on your best Mussar teachings, and put yourself in the place of the other. Action item: Step away from the pettiness and approach grandness of spirit. Forgive and move on. Be an example to others. Life is short and we are few in number. Avoid at all costs folks for whom drama is their modus operandi. Not unlike most worthwhile endeavors, this too must be practiced until one achieves mastery. Faced next time with an opportunity to disparage, cease and desist from the conversation! More than anything else, this will contribute to world peace. On a lighter note, The Insomnia of the Electronic Reader Phenomenon. Disclaimer: the Kletenik household boasts a Kindle and a Kindle Fire. Hence, I speak not from outright abhorrence but rather from firsthand knowledge. But I have this thing with books. It's called crazy love. It's insatiable. It is irrational. I open a book that was once my father's or mother's, and the smell from its pages wafts into the air and I am transported back to my childhood home. I slide my fingers across the pages and feel the print protruding upward, each letter struggling for its own place. The spine crackles a bit and the yellow pages are frail to the touch. "Be careful," it whispers, "I've been around and I've got stories to tell." Dramatic underlining, blue and red — what do they mean? Bookshelves lined with volumes that have long since acquainted themselves with their neighbors to the right and to the left. They stand proudly at attention, backs straight as soldiers, lending an austere ambience to an otherwise unremarkable playroom. I read an inscription from yesteryear written in the handwriting of once upon a time: "To My Beloved Sister. Fondly, Your Devoted Brother." Who does this sugary inscribing thing anymore? What will be of all of this when our grandchildren read all their books on e-readers? What's the plan here? Will we be emptying all those shelves and loading all those tomes on one single cold plastic mechanism? Folks, what will line the shelves of our grandchildren? This keeps me up at night. Food Shows. Bam! You heard me, Rachel, Ina, Paula, Jamie, Top Chef, Iron Chef, Master Chef: You are causing me untold loss of sleep. Plated, tasted, amuse bouche. Sous-vide, throw down. That's enough. Yes, I was enamored and entertained. William Deresiewicz said it best in his New York Times op-ed: "But what has happened is not that food has led to art, but that it has replaced it. Foodism has taken on the sociological characteristics of what used to be known — in the days of the rising postwar middle class, when Mortimer Adler was peddling the Great Books and Leonard Bernstein was on television — as culture." Remarkable as this may sound, but not a week after reading this illuminating piece I was actually told that a community event would be featuring "high society" food and wine, and the word "culture" was sprinkled in there as well. A clanging alarm went off in my mind as the words, so deliciously cooked up by Deresiewicz, found their way to my frontal lobe. Aha! The evidence! Foodism, running wild. What is becoming of us, that we are so preoccupied by the plate that we have neglected the stage and the page? When did the palate become the favored conduit for tasting the unknown? Where once it was the redemptive eminence of art, poetry, the salon, the essay, now it is Iron Chef. Redemption? I get that food is not just fuel. I get that it is an outlet for creativity. I get that delectable and delicious sustenance can communicate tradition, heritage, love and care. But it cannot be the central focus of our need for soul-feeding inspiration. It has all gone too far. Action Item: This year, let's read a classic that we never got to, get ourselves a collection of poetry to consider, attend a play and the symphony. Do not let it be said of our age that we surrendered Shakespeare, Whitman and Mozart for Bobby Flay, Tom Colicchio and the many celebrity chefs.

just an add-on to my review. I bought a 9ct gold rope bracelet from George whose shop is onboard the boat. It lasted 4 weeks before breaking and the jewellers I've taken it to said its not worth repairing-its so poor in places that it will keep breaking. I've been offered £7 as scrap gold which is less than a 5th of what I paid!

The boat looked a little dated when we saw it but is was beautiful inside and spotless.

On arrival in Luxor airport we were greeted by our guide called Ayman. His friendly and warm welcome instantly made us relax. On arrival to the boat it was as impressive as it looks in the photos. Once we were given our rooms (which were exactly what we had requested), we showered and headed down to dinner. There is a great choice of food, suitable for everyone. All trips were well planned and although an early start, well worth it as you miss the midday sun and hundreds of tourists!!!

Repealing part of a 1998 bill that doubled the size of streams that mining operators could bury under valley fill waste piles without compensating the state with money or in-kind projects.
Creates a DEP Office of Explosives and Blasting to regulate the use of blasting in large-scale and other surface mining. The office would review blasting design plans, write rules to govern blasting and set up requirements for pre-blast surveys of nearby property.
Make it easier for residents to be compensated for mining-damaged water supplies, by creating a presumption that such damage was caused by mining if the property owner had a pre-blast survey conducted.
Create within the DEP an Office of Community Impact. The office would be responsible for developing studies of possible community impacts of mining proposals, and administering a claims process for property damage and land purchases by mining companies.
Under the bill, the community impact office would also be charged with trying to prepare the southern coalfields for the day when mining ends.
"Where implemented, large-scale mountaintop removal mining tends to extract most, if not all of the recoverable coal reserves in an accelerated fashion," the bill states. "Long dependent primarily on mining, this area must plan for a future without coal."
Under the bill, the community impact office would propose infrastructure needs, recreational or educational facilities and economic development plans needed in communities where mountaintop removal occurs.
Coal companies would be required by the office to include such plans in mining permit proposals, according to the bill.
The bill states, "If the coal industry, and those benefitting from the extraction of mineral resources, are allowed the short-term privilege of mining our state's coal through mining practices which impact a large group of people - some in a very negative way - and through practices which will extract portions of the remaining reserves in an accelerated fashion, then with that privilege must come the responsibility of helping address the long-term needs of the people impacted by the activity."
