Boutique size ( by Las Vegas standards ) Lack of gaming facilities Genuinely friendly staff from the Bell desk to the pool area The Spa...outstanding The pool area
The 23 rd level bar not being available due to private function bookings... Very poor as it is the only bar. The whole property is a bit dark for my liking. seems overdone somewhat Wi Fi was not seemless throughout. had to keep reconnecting when in different parts of the hotel
Great 5 star hotel with excellent facilities and amenities.
Breakfast was ordinary and the SPA is overpriced
No casino = no visitors only resedence Good location Great services Sleeping quality is amazing Clean very clean
To go out, u have 2 use 2 different elevators (sky loby)
The sheer quality - little things like the curtains automatically opening as you enter the room (junior suite), great food.
Nothing of note, the gym could have been bigger
Incredibly pleasant and helpful staff Beautiful hotel Quick Valet Good Food Great Concierge Excellent Gym Excellent Pool All in all a 10/10 stay
We liked the location
Maintenance, not everything was working in our room e.g tv in bathroom, access keys, wifi very poor
service and comfort
stuck up attitudes of the valet and bellman service
With the main entrance off the 'the strip' yet being right in the middle of the action we always felt we were within easy reach of all the entertainment that Las Vegas offers and yet always able to escape the blistering heat and relentless crowds.
The internet in the hotel was slow and problematic
Location, restaurant, views
Poor airconditioning Wait for room
Poolside cabanas are an oasis from the craziness of the strip.
After a busy day on the strip it was great to come home to a quiet place with no smoke, just fresh smells. The bath was great for two. The bed and pillows were the most comfortable things we have ever slept on. Staff were professional. Pool was nice, never too busy and plenty of staff to look after you. Nice welcome as you walk past the spa. Welcome drink in room and chocolates mid week perhaps due to our long stay, but nice touch. Free water available was very good idea and most welcome in the hot sun. Good location on the strip.
Nothing. Really pleased we chose the MO.
We did not get our rooms until after 5:00pm
Professionalism of the staff Luxurious facilities Beautiful views Just amazing! The fact that there isn't a casino is a massive plus - it's quieter, personal and a complete contrast.
Cost of parking
I loved everything... They go above and beyond for their customers... and better yet they all have manners... it's hard to find educated people nowadays
Amazing location and fantastic service and rooms. We for engaged the day before we came and they left us a lovely hand written note and a bottle of champagne. Also, while at the pool, the brought round frozen grapes and iced water. A lovely touch.
Everything about the hotel was absolutely quality. The staff in particular were so incredibly helpful.
Only complaint is that it is $12 for a bowl of cereal which is a bit mad.
Fantastic staff and facilities from room to pool. Will definitely come back.
Lift system is confusing but this is really not a major point.
Hotel only, so no gambling. (but gambling very nearby in adjacent facilities) Staff is outstanding and friendly.
Our stay was lovely, staff were great & made our visit really special. Dinner in the Twist was amazing & perfect for a special occasion.
Having to leave :)
every thig there is perfect and they really very helpfull staff
Food , tried the mozen and pool cafe on a few occasions, it was well below par for the Mandarin Oriental
Location very good, the family had rooms next to each other which we had requested, concierge did good job with bookings and recommendations
The housekeeping service was a bit awkward in the time it took place, would have liked it to be when we have breakfast, say every morning between 8 and 9 am. Would also like the hotel to include a bed and breakfast option for those like us who like to have breakfast in the hotel before we head out.

Bill Maher: Obama is GOP's 'Best Friend,' Doesn't 'Blame Them For Anything'
By Matthew Balan | March 23, 2011 | 13:31
On Tuesday's In the Arena on CNN, Bill Maher channeled the far left's frustration with President Obama: "This is one of my big problems with our president. He never blames the Republicans for anything. He's their best friend....There's an oil rig that blows up in the Gulf of Mexico, and the party of drill, baby, drill does not get blamed." Host Eliot Spitzer also joined Maher in bashing the Tea Party.
The two liberals vented about domestic politics during the second half of the segment, which began 18 minutes into the 8 pm Eastern hour. Spitzer mouthed off his regular talking points about how "the middle class has been squeezed and has suffered....[and] the top 2 or 3 percent has profited amazingly well. And then...we had this financial meltdown, caused primarily by Wall Street." He then lamented how this situation hasn't benefitted his fellow liberals as much as he'd like, which led to Maher bashing the apparent stupidity of the Tea Party:
SPITZER: ...Out of that combination of things, when you might have thought we'd get a turn politically towards a new vision of what government should do, it hasn't happened. We've gotten the Tea Party and we've gotten anti-government rhetoric and a push once again for less government, less regulation. How did that happen?
MAHER: Well, if you read Newsweek this week...there's a big story called- I think it's called, 'Why are We So Dumb?' They did surveys- this happens all the time- and they ask Americans very basic questions. I think they gave them the citizenship test that people who are trying to immigrate to this country have to take, and, of course, people just don't know very much.
The Tea Party is a party named after a tax revolt that does not know very much about taxes. It's very hard to get effective policy in place if the people are voting against their own economic interests. The Tea Party- it's supposed to be a party of the common man, a populist movement, and yet, somehow everything they want is also what Steve Forbes wants. I mean, if your agenda is the same as a billionaire, you're not really a populist movement, and if they're supposed to be all about taxes and deficits and debt, most of the money, most of the deficit money, the debt money, was from under Bush. These are facts that they don't care about.
This rant delighted Spitzer, who has also bashed the Tea Party, and set up the question which led to the HBO host venting his frustration about President Obama:
SPITZER: Let me ask this question. Where have been the elected officials educating the public, instead of creating the void into which you get the sort of empty rhetoric that fuels the Tea Party? In other words, where has the leadership been on the other side to explain as articulately as you just did what got us to this precipice?
MAHER: I couldn't agree more. This is one of my big problems with our president. He never blames the Republicans for anything. He's their best friend. He always helps them with their narrative. There's an oil rig that blows up in the Gulf of Mexico, and the party of drill, baby, drill does not get blamed. There's a financial meltdown, and the party of bank deregulation does not get blamed. There's an attack in Arizona with assault weapons, and the party that backs assault weapons doesn't get blamed.
Earth to Bill: it isn't very hard to find instances where either candidate Obama or President Obama blamed former President Bush or the GOP for something. Also, Jared Jee Loughner used a semi-automatic pistol with a 33-round magazine in Tucson, not an "assault weapon." Maher likely wants to ban those extended magazines as well, but it doesn't give him an excuse to spout off a false detail.
Earlier in the segment, Spitzer asked the HBO personality if the current revolts in the Muslim world was a defeat for al Qaeda. Though the atheist targeted Islam in his answer, one could easily see an implied attack on Christian conservatives as well:
MAHER: Yes, I do think it's a defeat for al Qaeda, but it's not a complete defeat. There was a million-woman march a couple of weeks ago in Cairo, and about 1,000 women showed up, greatly outnumbered by men jeering them to get back into the house, as women should be-
So, you know, I said this on our show a few weeks ago and people were very upset. I very often make my liberals in our audience mad at me when I talk about this subject, but I said, you know what? If there is not a sexual revolution that is going to accompany your revolution-revolution, just forget it because, you know, that's part of it, is becoming a somewhat secular society. I mean, al Qaeda draws its strength from religion, and we know this is a religious culture, much more than the West is a religious culture. At some point, they are going to have to make a break. You cannot have a sort of semi-theocracy, where you're getting laws from the Koran and so forth, and I worry about that. We saw the polls that were coming out of Egypt at the time of the revolution when Mubarak was still in power, and a majority of the people believe in things like Sharia law. It's very a religious conservative society, and I don't think it's- that is compatible with democracy. I know liberals don't like to hear that, that some people aren't ready for it, but you know what? If you're too religious, you can't also be a democracy.
SPITZER: Look, you are absolutely right. The tension between a secular democracy and the theocracies that still govern in many parts of that world is a tension that's going to have to see work itself through. We hope it works itself through in favor of secular democracy. We're going to have to wait and see.
At the end of the interview, Spitzer unsurprisingly heaped praise on his guest: "Thank you so much for joining us. Your show is brilliant. I love watching it." Maher is used to getting this kind of treatment from CNN hosts, such as during his regular appearances on Larry King's program. It might be interesting to see if King's successor in the 9 pm Eastern block, Piers Morgan, would follow this model, given his debate with atheist Ricky Gervais in January 2011.

Maybe someone can point me to this statistic.
Total number of years Congress had a Democrat Majority alongside debt it created.
Put beside;
Total number of years Republicans held Majority in Congress alongside debt it created.
With something of a control where each party held control of one House and how much debt was created in that situation.
Even without seeing the actual numbers, I will say, without reservation, that Democrats are way "out front" in debt spending. I will bet the farm on it.
Now as for Maher talking about "voting economic interest", What happened to Constitutional interest, Maher? Apparently, he does not understand that many things are outside the reach of any democratic process or majority. Maybe he could read the Declaration of Independence to see that, and see the Constitution itself for some specific examples.
Maher is a lightweight and I would like someone to ask him, on camera, when the last time was that he actually read the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.

#6 I don't see the Congressional
Submitted by VBaxter on Wed, 03/23/2011 - 2:48pm.
I don't see the Congressional stat (which would be more accurate, since they spend the money), but the president does sign off on it. Perhaps you can look up who controlled Congress and match it to these years. Plus, you have put everything in context. For example, Raegan increased the debt because he lowered taxes and defeated the Soviet Union, but the economy boomed.
But here you go: http://www.microtopia.org/_/rsrc/1279484277507/microtopia-1/us-and-calif...
Also, it is percentage of GDP, and all that. Here is the full article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_public_debt

The last 6 years of Reagan's term, congress and the Senate were Democrat. The debt was a result of compromise to bring down the Soviet's. Star Wars was the weapon of choice. The tax reduction stimulated the economy, and tax revenue totals increased as a result.

#12 Bush ate my homework
Submitted by Pilgrim1949 on Wed, 03/23/2011 - 3:48pm.
Bill needs to get out from under his rock more often.
The Obamessiah has been in perpetual "It's-Bush's-fault" mode ever since he started campaigning (which has also been his perpetual default mode).
Obambi's been blaming anyone and everyone else for everything that doesn't shine glory and accolades upon his own wonderfulness. If it's all Bush's fault, isn't that the same as it being the GOP's fault, too? Last time I checked Bush was a registered Republican, and oh how those mean ol' Republicans in Congress are just not rolling over and allowing the Obama Empire to ascend to infinite power and control.
I guess little Billie just hasn't caught on to all those subtle nuances. I know... they do tend to fly by with such speed and ever-changing position that it's hard to keep up.
Perhaps Jean-Francois Heinz-57-varieties-of-positions Kerry can help him with that.

#13 Bush's Deficit
Submitted by IdahoJim on Wed, 03/23/2011 - 3:48pm.
Once again Bill plants his foot firmly in his mouth.
The Bush deficits and debt were nothing compared to Obama's. Those that site the "fact" that Clinton left office with a surplus are clueless. That so-called surplus was a bookkeeping trick and would have only applied to future budgets. Clinton's last budget was a whopper with a deficit.
Besides, the Democrats caused the economy to fall. Between taking over the house and senate, they savaged the mortgage market with threats, intimidation, and patronage jobs.
Obama thinks Bush spent too much money? How many spending bills did he vote against while in the senate? When he showed up. How much more than Bush has he spent so far?

Media played video of Ashton Kutcher complaining about BP oil spill: "this is what republicans want"

Turkey Breast with Apricot Glaze Recipe
For a special occasion dinner, I stuff the turkey breast with onion, cloves and and orange before baking it. The results is a wonderful aroma as the turkey is roasting...and great flavor! Removing the skin from the bird from the bird before serving helps trim the fat...and the sweet glaze drizzled over individual slices makes a fantastic alternative to gravy.Nancy Zimmerman, Cape May Court House, New Jersey
- 1 small onion
- 2 whole cloves
- 1 small orange, halved
- 1 bone-in turkey breast (4-1/2 pounds)
- 1 cup apricot preserves
- 1/2 cup unsweetened apple juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Peel onion and insert cloves. Stuff onion and orange into the neck cavity of turkey. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 170°.
- Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine the preserves, apple juice and mustard. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 4-5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove skin, onion and orange from turkey. Slice turkey; drizzle with glaze. Yield: 12 servings.

We loved this turkey breast and it had great flavor! The apricot glaze was also very good on top of the turkey. I also mixed up some butter with orange zest and chives and put it under the skin.

Update: According to HitFix writer Alan Sepinwall, AMC says the July 14th date tweeted by Aaron Paul is not correct.
If you've got plans next summer, you might want to double check 'em. One of the biggest TV events of the year (besides the return of "Arrested Development") has now set a date for the beginning of the end.
"Breaking Bad" star Aaron Paul tweeted that the show will be back on July 14th, kicking off the eight episodes that will wind down the adventures of Walt and Jesse. And this is one you'll want to be watching week-by-week, instead of waiting to catch the whole season at once, as everyone will be talking. Creator Vince Gilligan recently teased that his finale will be "polarizing," adding that, "It just makes sense to me that bad people should get punished and good people should be rewarded. I know it doesn't work like that in real life, but there's always that yearning." So do you think Walt will get out alive?
So check your calendar, rearrange vacation plans and you might want to bow out of that wedding RSVP. "Breaking Bad" is just seven months away. [ComingSoon]
Rashid | April 5, 2013 11:03 AM
@Arash That's absolutely correct. The question was always: Who's good and who's bad?
Arash | January 6, 2013 4:02 PM
What breaking bad does so well is blend the lines of what is wrong and right. Who is bad or good. As stands now, only Hank is the true good guy. Jesse is good, why? Because he feels remorse for children etc.? He still is an addict, dealer and a murderer. No Jesse, no Walt downward spiral and vice-versa. Not that I don't feel for Jesse's character and I do want him to be alright in the end but the lines are simply blurred on who is good in a bad man's world.
Vincent | January 5, 2013 12:55 AM
The fact that he said that "good people should be rewarded" makes me really hopeful that Jesse will end up alright.
An Elaborate Joke | January 4, 2013 12:08 PM
"AMC says July 14 Breaking Bad premiere date Aaron Paul tweeted last night is not correct."

Halstead: Pair claim council intimidation
9:16am Wednesday 5th September 2012 in News
Parish councillors who claim they were intimidated at a meeting regarding a major development in their village have asked the Government for help.
Sible Hedingham parish councillors felt they were discouraged from representing their residents at a Braintree Council local development framework (LDF) meeting discussing proposals to build 236 homes on the former Premdor factory.
Since the meeting on July 25 members of the parish council planning committee expressed concern about comments made by Braintree Council leader Graham Butland and Lady Patricia Newton.
At the following full parish council meeting they described the attitude of the two district councillors as "disgraceful" and last week sent a letter to the Department for Communities and Local Government.
See this week's Gazette for the full story.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (Kennie Bass) - Charleston Department Store was doing brisk business selling full face-mask toboggans and insulated bib overhauls for Yeager Airport workers and Waste Management employees.
Temperatures below zero can create big problems in a hurry if you aren't properly dressed.
"We're gonna get these toboggans here to cover the face to keep from getting windburns and frostbitten," Chris Keyser who works in Support at Yeager Airport said. "In this kind of weather, I guess we haven't had this since '94, I want to make sure my guys are safe."
The cold weather is more than an inconvenience. Hypothermia is a dangerously low body temperature and is the most common winter weather killer. Frostbite is the freezing of skin and body tissue. Both are very real threats in this weather.
"If you're getting down to the level of -30 degrees in the order of about ten minutes you can get frostbite on exposed skin," Dr. Richard Besser with ABC News said. "But you know, you don't even have to be that cold to get hypothermia."
It's not just people working outside who have to be prepared. Skiers and others enjoying winter sports also must be careful.
"I wear multiple layers and you have like really good pants and stuff that's waterproof because you don't really wanna get wet," Grace Wolpert of Hurricane said.
Gander Mountain is offering sales on its winter gear and portable generators just in case nasty weather creates widespread power problems.
"We have generators available, different wattages, "Derrick Paris with Gander Mountain said. "That would be important for our customers out there, making sure that they know where they can get that. Buddy heaters is another item people are coming in looking for."
If you are outside in the cold, there are some warning signs of hypothermia that you can look out for. They include uncontrollable shivering, memory loss, disorientation, slurred speech and drowsiness. Anyone suffering from hypothermia should be given immediate medical attention. If no help is available, warm liquids, dry clothing and blankets can be used to slowly warm the victim.
Frostbite first affects exposed body tissue where blood circulation may be limited such as your fingers, toes, nose and ears. To minimize frostbite, make sure all body parts are well covered. When frostbite starts, feeling is lost in the affected area and the frozen tissue will take on a white or pale appearance. If you suspect you are experiencing frostbite, hold the frostbitten area closely against warm skin to return blood flow and warmth to the affected area.

Senate votes to move ahead on Leahy-sponsored billBy EDWARD DONGA
Correspondent | February 05,2013WASHINGTON — The Senate voted overwhelmingly, 85-8, Monday evening to move ahead on a bill to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act — a measure authored by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy.
The Violence Against Women Act – VAWA -- was first passed into law in 1994, and has been reauthorized twice since. But the last reauthorization expired more than a year ago, and the legislation has since been caught in a standoff between differing versions approved by the
Democratic-controlled Senate and the Republican-majority House of Representatives.
But Monday's Senate vote -- which gave the green light to beginning debate on the bill itself – attracted the support of not only every member of the Democratic majority who was present, but also more than two-thirds of Senate Republicans as well.
Sen. Mike Crapo of Idaho, a Republican conservative, helped Leahy to obtain bipartisan support for the measure. The 85 votes in favor of the motion to proceed to the bill – including 53 Democrats and 32 Republicans -- were well in excess of the 60 vote supermajority needed in such cases. It foreshadows swift passage of the legislation itself in the Senate, perhaps as early as the end of this week.
The Violence Against Women Act provides communities with resources to combat acts of domestic violence and to protect and aid victims of such acts. Advocates of the law point to the decrease in such violence as evidence of its success. "The annual incidence of domestic violence has dropped more than 50 percent [since 1994]," Leahy said in remarks on the Senate floor.
However, House Republican conservatives took issue with three new provisions in last year's Senate-passed bill. These involved extending protection under the law to illegal immigrants, same-sex couples, and Native Americans.
The bill passed Monday in the Senate does modify the provisions of last year's legislation with regard to illegal immigrants. House Republicans objected to the prior Senate proposal on constitutional grounds, arguing that bill's language would increase the number of visas granted to illegal immigrants who were victims of domestic abuse.
This would affect revenue, and therefore violated the clause of the U.S. Constitution that all bills that raise revenue must originate in the House, they contended.
Said Leahy, "We removed it from the bill this year to take away that technical excuse and expedite action on the bill."
Leahy did pledge, however, to address the subject when immigration reform legislation is debated by Congress later this year.

A Colorado woman was impaled by a light pole after she crashed because she was texting and driving.
A strong line of thunderstorms battered Charlotte and Mecklenburg County Monday afternoon, leaving thousands in the dark and areas of flooding across the city.
A Tornado Watch remains in effect for Anson until 10 p.m. Monday night.
Much of the WBTV viewing area, with the exception of Lancaster and Chester counties, was already under a Flash Flood Watch through Monday evening.
All areas could see severe storms, with potentially damaging straight line winds.
A Severe Thunderstorm was issued for Mecklenburg, Gaston, York, and Union Counties Monday afternoon but was allowed to expire by 3:30 p.m.
The line of storms that moved through knocked out power to nearly 17,700 locations in Mecklenburg County at its peak, according to Duke Energy.
Lots of downed power lines and trees in roadway reports have come in. The Park Road area, University City and Mallard Creek Church Road are the hardest hit areas in the city.
Localized flooding is also being reported in neighborhoods across the city.
Large trees are blocking Park Road at Hillside Avenue and others have also fallen on Heathwood Road in Cotswold.
Several counties in our area experienced heavy rain Sunday afternoon. The rain Sunday came down so quickly, many people found themselves unable to get back home. Several roads had to be blocked off.
The heavy rainfall also caused a sewage spill into McAlpine Creek on Sunday morning. A manhole in Pineville was overflowing into the creek.
Monday night, the front moves in, and then the weather is forecast to quiet down a bit through Wednesday. Temperatures will remain high.

Every team in the league plays pick and roll. It is perhaps the most basic of plays in the game and when all else breaks down, it is the default go-to play. It is simple yet infinitely adaptable. Whatever you do to defend it, there's a counter move. Flash the ball handler and the roller runs free. Stay home and the ball handler has an open look or an open lane. Switch and you have a mismatch.
So if you can actually defend the pick and roll better than most, that makes you incredibly valuable. Which is a perfect description of Kevin Garnett. I'm not sure what the stats are this year, but in years past he's been singled out at as the best pick and roll defender in the league.
He's good enough to adapt to his ever changing supporting cast and Doc's tweaks to the defensive schemes.
Is Kevin Garnett Still the Backbone of the Boston Celtics Defense? | Bleacher Report
Garnett's pick-and-roll defense has been typically effective throughout the year, but this season his general strategy has differed from the past. On high pick-and-rolls he used to hedge, jumping out and slowing down the point guard's progress. (Throughout his Celtics tenure, Garnett has been one of the two or three best big-man pick-and-roll defenders deploying this strategy.) This season Garnett has sagged back to contain the ball-handler, a strategy popular with most big men throughout the league. What separates Garnett from most of them is he's still quick and smart enough not to drop too low, which would give the point guard a wide open jumper or space to penetrate. Instead, more often than not he forces the ball back to the rolling man then slides a few steps across the lane to recover.
For all the intricate gameplans and adjustments and technical jargon, the game often boils down to fundamental execution and effort. Few put as much effort and detailed execution into their defense as Kevin Garnett does on a daily basis. And that's why your defense is always going to be better with KG on the court.

CATEGORIES MoviesTim Robbins, Michael Moore and Kanye West could have company at Occupy Wall Street in Lower Manhattan: the Los Angeles Times reports that Christopher Nolan may film parts of 'The Dark Knight Rises' in downtown New York with the protests as a backdrop.
This is all very hush-hush -- 'The Dark Knight Rises' is coming to New York under the fake production name 'Magnus Rex' -- but the Times reports that the Occupy Wall Street protests won't be written into the film; instead, it's likely there is an existing scene of civil unrest in the script, and Nolan will use the throng of protestors to his advantage. If he even films there at all.
Following jaunts in Pittsburgh, Los Angeles and India, the future blockbuster comes to New York for two weeks starting on Oct. 29. A recent casting notice for the film states that Nolan is looking for actors with "military and/or law enforcement training/experience, weapons training, and/or martial arts training."
Warner Bros. confirmed to the Times that production was headed to New York, but wouldn't comment on the Occupy Wall Street leg of the trip. Why so serious, WB?

Software-defined networking is aligning to a major social shift: The emergence of a global and highly mobile middle class which is growing up – and growing old – digital.
Led by Asia's growth economies, the middle-class family – not the individual – is the central and primary social unit among these consumers. This is already having a profound effect on digital service portfolios as family "share-everything" services become common.
Capturing the digital wallet share of entire families is a formidable opportunity for communication service providers. But CSPs will need to have a digital infrastructure that can adapt to increasingly diverse consumption needs across these intimate consumer groups. For many CSPs that Informa has interviewed, software-defined networking is becoming the logical solution.

The care you want to give to patients and their data.
Juniper Networks, Gajraj Singh, Director of Product Marketing, and Adaptive Communications
Mobility is great for your business, right? Employees can be much more productive, anywhere, at any time! But as you consider a 'Bring Your Own Device' (BYOD) program for your employees, you need to consider the risk to your business data and applications. Mobile devices are fast becoming the new vector for malware, interception and compromise, as reported in our recent research reports. What if the wireless access point an employee connects to at the local coffee shop is actually a rogue access point? And, what happens if one of your employees loses a smartphone or tablet, or even worse, it is stolen? What about that business e-mail and sensitive document, or mobile login for your business applications. Is that information safe? This session examines how to ensure that your employees' personal or business mobile devices are safe and protected, while allowing you to reap the productivity gains offered by BYOD.
Presented by: Seema Kathuria, Product Marketing Manager, Juniper Networks and Adaptive Communications
When it comes to cloud computing, security has been one of the biggest inhibitors for businesses.
While traditional security architectures (such as network-based firewalls and intrusion prevention system devices) are essential to the security of the physical network of the cloud, they provide no visibility into the traffic generated in the virtualized part of the network (e.g., traffic between virtual machines in the data center's host virtualization servers).
To provide proper protections for the cloud, it is necessary to address the most significant underlying technology of the cloud: virtualization of workloads and servers. This is exactly what Juniper Networks vGW Virtual Gateway does.
Juniper Networks, Jay Kelly, Product Manager Pulse BU, and Adaptive Communications
Bring your own (mobile) device, or BYOD, is a rising trend, and with good reason — the business benefits and the increase in employee effectiveness are too big to ignore. However, it's all too easy to get bogged down in the details, like mobile OS versions, device types, location, allowed apps, not to mention malware infection and jail breaking and rooting risks.
This presentation will offer a strategic, holistic vision for BYOD that focuses on a new framework for successful deployment: connect, protect, and manage. The framework allows you to focus on the most important piece of your overall security strategy policy while controlling your risk and staying compliant. It will also discuss the relevance of some of the latest findings of our mobile threat center research.

Residents block St James road over bad conditions
BY KARLA JOSEPHS Observer staff reporter email@example.com
MONTEGO BAY, St James— Residents of Green Pond blocked sections of the King Street to Cornwall Courts main road here this morning to protest the poor state of the roads in the area.
"The dust is making persons sick in the community. Dem use water fi wet di road and as di water dry up di road dusty again. Di road need fi fix," said Erica Allen, one of the protesters.
Another resident, Kim Campbell, said the dust was making many children in the area sick.
"Mi haffi sen mi son go a country 'cause a di dust. Mi have asthma an mi caan tek di dust no longer," she said.
Shop owner Carlton Ellis said that the dust nuisance in the area has also affected his business.
"Dem come dig up di road from last year January say dem ago fix it then dem stop. Dem come back recently and start digging again and left it," said an irate Ellis.
Work on the King Street to Green Pond road began more than a year ago under the controversial Jamaica Development Infrastructure Programme (JDIP).
According to the residents, work on the roadway resumed last month, but came to a halt three days later.

A man in Arkansas was hospitalized recently because the stray dog that he brought home snacked on one of his testicles.
According to a report from the Trumann Police Department, the man is partially paralyzed and normally has no feeling from the waist down. But he woke up on Monday with a burning pain in his mid-section.
He had been sleeping nude and awoke with his dog was between his legs. The animal had blood on its muzzle and front teeth. It had apparently consumed his testicle after biting it from his scrotum area, the police report states.
The 39-year-old victim was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
The man said he adopted the "small white fluffy" stray dog three weeks prior and had no idea if it was vaccinated.
The dog was quarantined and then euthanized. The Arkansas Department of Health will test its remains for rabies.

Artists Pop Art:
- ada - war
- wes - wes
While the term Pop Art is widely known nowadays, its artistic scope and the issues it raises are nonetheless frequently misunderstood.
Pop Art in Britain refers to a group of artists who began appearing on the scene in the mid-1950s. This identity was formed around The Independent Group, an intellectual circle consisting of the painters Eduardo Paolozzi and Richard Hamilton, the architectural partnership of Alison and Peter Smithson, and the art critic Lawrence Alloway. In its theoretical explorations, The Independent Group focused on a theoretical exploration of technology, hence the recurring references to science-fiction in British Pop Art.
American Pop Art had no explicit linkups with British Pop Art and refers to a tendency that arose from individual initiatives. Though it was not a structured movement in the sense of a group putting on collective shows, it does however have a certain coherence. In general terms, it emerged from the work of Robert Rauschenberg and, chiefly, Jasper Johns, and is characterised by an interest in ordinary objects, irony, and a faith in the potency of images. American Pop Art has its home specifically in New York, where at the outset artists such as Claes Oldenburg and Jim Dine, Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol exhibited, then James Rosenquist, George Segal and Tom Wesselman…
pop art book Pop Life: Art in a Material World. Provocative and entertaining, Pop Life examines how artists since the 1980s have cultivated their public persona as a product, and conjured a dazzling mix of media, commerce, and glamour to build their own brands.
