Cafferty Blasts Pelosi Again: Her Arrogance Is 'Breathtaking'
Two weeks after calling Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) a horrible woman, CNN's Jack Cafferty said the House Speaker's arrogance was breathtaking.
During Tuesday's "Situation Room," Cafferty addressed the report the CBS "Evening News" did the previous day on the out of control spending by members of Congress at last month's United Nations climate summit in Copenhagen.
"Her arrogance on this subject: breathtaking," said Cafferty of the Speaker's failure to "explain why it was necessary for her and her colleagues to make the trip to Copenhagen in the first place."
He marvelously continued, "I'd be curious to know where Nancy Pelosi gets her sense of entitlement to simply blow hundreds of thousands of dollars of our money at Christmas time so she and her pals can take a little trip to Copenhagen" (video embedded below the fold with transcript, h/t Story Balloon):
JACK CAFFERTY, CNN ANCHOR: Wolf, hundreds of thousands of dollars, that's how much it cost for a delegation of 59 people led by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi along with members of Congress, staff, and in some cases, spouses and kids to go to Copenhagen, site of the climate summit just before Christmas.
CBS News reports that for 21 congressmen, food and rooms for two nights cost $4,400, and the total hotel bill including meeting rooms came to more than $400,000. Pelosi used to military jets for herself and her party at a cost of more than $100,000 in flight time alone. Hundreds of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money -- has nothing to do with the Obama administration officials, who went to Denmark to actually attend and work at the summit.
Pelosi filed the required expense reports, but so far she has failed to explain why it was necessary for her and her colleagues to make the trip to Copenhagen in the first place. Her arrogance on this subject: breathtaking. As for the high hotel charges Pelosi's office says those who stayed two nights were charged a six-night minimum at the five-star Marriott, information that likely was available before Pelosi and her freeloaders made their vacation plans.
Note to the House Speaker: we have skyrocketing deficits, a trillion plus dollars a year, a national debt north of $12 trillion in this country. The president is talking about reining in discretionary spending. I wonder if that would have included this junket by Pelosi and her colleagues. I'd be curious to know where Nancy Pelosi gets her sense of entitlement to simply blow hundreds of thousands of dollars of our money at Christmas time so she and her pals can take a little trip to Copenhagen.
Here's the question. Should House Speaker Nancy Pelosi be required to explain her trip to Copenhagen? Go to CNN.com/CaffertyFile and post a comment on my blog. Here's a hint -- yes.
All those in favor say "Aye."

6 June 1911
Herbert Ponting
Presented to King George V, 1914
The men are celebrating Scott's 43rd birthday - his last - on 6 June 1911. He sits at the head of the table, and is surrounded by the officers and senior members of the team. The only man looking at the camera is the Norwegian naval officer Tryggve Gran (1889-1980). The atmosphere is both festive and patriotic.

How to Buy ELLIPSOIDALS
ELLIPSOIDALS are types of lighting fixtures that are primarily used in theatres for creating a wide variety of lighting effects. In addition to this, these types of spot lights are often also used by people for lighting the premises of their residences. Use of these types of spotlights in the residential set up is mainly done to beautify the property or make it safer by lighting the areas around it.ELLIPSOIDALS are highly technical devices that require their users to be well versed in all their abilities and features. In fact, these types of spotlights are available in different specifications. This makes it important for a potential ellipsoidal buyer to ensure that his purchase is of high quality. If you have been planning to purchase an ellipsoidal, then you can improve your purchase by focusing on the following aspects.
1. The throw distance:
Even within the category of ellipsoidal, there is a huge variety in terms of the throw distance that each fixture is capable of. The throw distance can be best defined as the distance that the ellipsoidal's beam of light can reach without fading, diffusing or losing its cohesion. While the throw distance is important for theatres as well, it comes into play more in the case of residential properties. In simpler words, most residential properties would welcome an ellipsoidal with the maximum throw distance because this would mean greater visibility and protection.
2. Range of possible light beams:
ELLIPSOIDALS also tend to vary on the basis of the kind of beam they create. You can find ELLIPSOIDALS that offer a range of options starting from a soft beam of light to sharp beams. This property is more relevant in terms of stage use because the quality of the beam of light is used for creating the mood of the scene, in addition to illumination. Alternatively, an ellipsoidal being used in a residential setup for protection needs to be as sharp as possible.
3. Pattern creating ability:
The more advanced ELLIPSOIDALS in the market also boast of an ability to create patterns of light, which can be very handy in a stage set up. The patterns are created by a device that is placed in front of the ellipsoidal. These additional devices are known as gobos. Gobos can be extremely handy in a theatre setup because they can often be crucial in establishing a certain scene in a certain way. Hence, considering the kind of gobos that an ellipsoidal has with it or is compatible with it is important as well.
4. Special features:
In the same vein, the more advanced ELLIPSOIDALS also have additional features that can make them worth a lot to the buyers. A good example of this would be ELLIPSOIDALSthat offer a zoom facility. Other additional features that an ellipsoidal can have include lens coating, rapid focusing and energy efficiency.
If you consider all the aspects mentioned above then you would have analyzed almost every relevant aspect of ELLIPSOIDALS, which would ensure a high quality purchase.

Remember that time I said I was gonna start doing pilates? Well I did. Oh, and then I somehow messed up my knee so now I have to do physical therapy for a month.
I actually liked the physical therapy session today, though. I got massaged by a stranger, which was really painful but in that good way. Then I got shocked by this machine for 11 minutes. Pretty dope.
Everybody there was like big, muscley, sporty dudes. They were saying words like "cross fit" and "scrimmage." But it was cool because they assumed that I was a runner, like, IRL. Not just on wii fit.
This is what you get when you try to be active. So….keep that in mind.

He makes beats, writes raps and likes dope kicks. Continuing with my Mushroom Jazz 6 head space, Kero is the man behind track 4, Groovin,' which is one of my personal favorites. Pursuing the quest for quality hip hop fused with influences of jazz, blues and good ole fashioned soul, Kero is prepping for his next full length release which is dropping in April on his own imprint Plug Label. However, just to give you a taste he's dropped a new single 'When the Sunshine Comes' which is available on itunes. If you ain't got the time to get to the itunes store, click here for a special download of 'Welcome to the Bay' courtesy of the man himself.
The debut from Om's new dynamic duo — a journey through all things electronica — full of driving rhythms, lush atmospherics, and stunning synths!
When two talented forces come together unifying their knowledge of everything music — something special happens; enter Cates&dpL. With backgrounds in the industry as both musicians and as tour management, Jon Cates and David Lind have grown and developed together to push the envelope with their unique sound.
Cates&dpL have been noted for their musicianship since they started in 2003, and over the past five years they have matured alongside their musical techniques and devices. Not wanting to sound like every other electronic act, they have put more attention on being a team rather than solo artists. This effort stands out in their carefully crafted music, and they gain influence from one another every day giving each track they produce its own character and feeling.
When considering what would be the best for their newest recording effort (which will actually be their third studio album), Jon and Dave were determined to present their new material to the public in a way that shows the real side of their artistry, a side that displays true musicianship.
Although many people would consider them newbies, Cates&dpL have been achieving success since day one. Triumphs for the duo have put them in coveted spots including #1 placement on Beatport's Breaks Downloads, a feature on James Zabiela's DJ Mag covermount CD, as well as a feature on the Global Underground Paris compilation — mixed by Nick Warren. These successes have only pushed the two harder. Their recent remixes of Ladyhawke, Michael Jackson, and Nina Simone have seen heavy blog rotation and support from Carl Cox, Mike Monday, D. Ramirez and more.
In support of the release of 'Through the Weekend,' we've decided to give you a free download of an oldie but goodie. Released on the Samantha James 'Angel Love' remix ep, the somewhat slept on Cates & dpL (Portland Beaver Mix) is a nice introduction of their remix work. Keep an eye out for more remixes from the up and coming production duo as they've finished current projects for Wolfgang Gartner and current boots for Zion I, MIA, Ladyhawke & Pink Floyd. Click here to download a 320 MP3 of Samantha James 'Angel Love' (Cates & dpL Portland Beaver Mix).
And least but not last, the production duo just hit me with a special podcast showcasing their new productions with select songs from 'Through the Weekend' and the whitelabel remix of Ladyhawke. You can stream or download it on the podcast page here.

Since 1993, Beatsauce radio has been holding down the airwaves of the SFC with resident djs J-Boogie, Wisdom and Raw B every Sunday evening. Known for their innovative shows showcasing the who's who in hip hop, ticket giveaways and a long list of guest appearances including the likes of Common, Gangstarr, KRS-ONE, J5 and many more. Along with Om Records, this year marks the 15th anniversary of Beatsauce, and as the seasons change so does radio. Beatsauce has now parted ways from KUSF and had teamed up with Brooklyn Radio and it's affliates for a bi monthly broadcast where you can stream and download the current hotness. Not just hip hop, they've decided to open the format to include multiple music genres including funk, soul, house, afrobeat, reggae, dancehall and disco. They've also enlisted Dj Diversify to join the team.
In the new music world, the <A HREF=http://www.om-records.com:8100/releases/751-revolution target=blank">Revolution 12 inch featuring Lyrics Born, The Mamaz and a nice remix from DJ Vadim finally made it to wax and you can get your own personal copy online at blank">Turntable Lab or on the shelves at such stores as Amoeba. Don't miss out on this limited edition 12 wax before it goes out of print.
There are times when an artist is so prolific that he has to have several different monikers purely based on how many genres he touches and the amount of music being produced. This is King Kooba aka Colossus aka Beats Department aka the newly formed Jazzual Suspects who has been the talk of the town after being featured on Mark Farina's Mushroom Jazz 6. The Jazzual Suspects is the brain trust of Charlie Tate, a 6ft 8 South Londener, Bay Area transplant, Chelsea and Oakland A's fan who can roast the hell out of a lamb shank. The Jazzual Suspects is a new vibe from the colossal one, reminiscing of the new but old acid jazz era of the mid 90's. Heavy on sampled drums, smooth piano chords and bits and pieces of horns and guitars is laced throughout music that only leads to one thing; infectious head banging. Noticed by KCRW and several other radio personalities, having the number one single downloaded track on the MJ6 album, The Jazzual Suspects were inviting to take part in a music video contest put together by Lincoln, in which the winner's video would air in a 30 second spot during the commercials at the Grammy's. As it turns out, Funkin' Koobad, a song featured on a digital only mix called Downtempo Garden was chosen and we received two produced videos from local directors Noah Harald and Little Red Robots. Check out the videos below and look out for the free download of Funkin' Koobad after the jump. Stay tuned for more from The Jazzual Suspects including an ep series and full length to be confirmed.
Once upon a time in a raveland far far away, there was a little contest where we all voted for a favorite local djs to play at a big county ball attended by the SF royalty of electronic community.

We need your help to make this years results om-fabulous so we all can get together and celebrate at the Dreamteam event which will be announced soon. Unfortunately, you can only choose 5 djs on the list and there are way more Om djs involved, so you might have to vote twice using different emails ;-) Look below for the full list of Om Endorsed Acts:

The truth, the business, the pixels; Flavor Innovator also known as Steve Ha is the dude. I started working with him back in 2002 on my first big hip hop show in the Bay, MF Doom at DNA Lounge. We broke in to the scene together, Steve designed the fliers and i ran and booked the shows. It was a great partnership until the day came when he had so many clients hiring him that i had to wait in line for my designs. Go Flavor Innovator! Time passed, Steve had a monopoly on flyer designs for the Bay Area and i was hired to Om Records. We then started working on album covers and cd projects and he flipped the Zeph & Azeem 'Rise Up', J-Boogie's Dubtronic Science 'Soul Vibrations; and E Da Boss 'Go Left' 12inch designs for me without a blink of an eye. For me, he is one of the most talented graphic designers that i have ever worked with. To this date, his client list is over a 100 deep ranging from artists like Lyrics Born to clothing companies such a Exact Science as well as building websites; he is the real deal hollyfield. Peep this little in depth interview courtesy of Satva and Vimby.com. Look closely for the jonthecorner appearance living large of 3rd and Townsend. Steve you are the MAN!

NEW YORK (AP) -- Serena Williams won her fifth U.S. Open championship and 17th Grand Slam title overall by beating Victoria Azarenka 7-5, 6-7 (6), 6-1 in a windy final.
It was the toughest test these two weeks for the top-ranked Williams, who also beat No. 2 Azarenka in three sets in last year's final.
Williams hadn't lost a set in her previous six matches but was bothered by the swirling air and Azarenka's strong play. Seemingly in control in the second set, Williams was broken while serving for the match at 5-4 and 6-5.
After Azarenka took the tiebreaker, Williams chucked her racket, and it bounced onto the court.
But Williams regained control in the third set, breaking for a 3-1 lead when Azarenka double-faulted.
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - Wrestling, a sport as ancient as the games themselves, is back in the Olympics after seven months in limbo and even more determined to keep its place for centuries to come.
The International Olympic Committee fixed what it admits was a big mistake, voting wrestling back onto the program for the 2020 and 2024 Games.
Presenting new leadership and a revamped sport, wrestling easily defeated bids from baseball-softball and squash to regain its Olympic status. Wrestling received 49 votes to win in the first round of the secret balloting by the International Olympic Committee, while baseball-softball got 24 votes and squash 22.
The result capped a frantic six-month campaign by the wrestling body FILA to save its Olympic status after the IOC executive board surprisingly cut it from the list of core sports in February.
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - The International Olympic Committee went for a familiar, trusted host, selecting Tokyo for the 2020 Games and signaling that playing it safe was preferable to more risky picks like Sochi and Rio.
With Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe reassuring IOC members on the Fukushima nuclear crisis, Tokyo defeated Istanbul 60-36 Saturday in the final round of secret voting. Madrid was eliminated earlier after an initial tie with Istanbul.
Tokyo, which hosted the 1964 Olympics, billed itself as the ''safe pair of hands'' at a time of global political and economic turmoil - a message that clearly resonated with the IOC.
With Madrid's bid dogged by questions over Spain's economic crisis and Istanbul handicapped by political unrest and the civil war in neighboring Syria, Tokyo offered the fewest risks.
SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. (AP) - Nathan Smith won the deciding point in the United States' 17-9 victory over Britain and Ireland in the Walker Cup, beating England's Nathan Kimsey 4 and 3 in the fifth singles match at historic National Golf Links of America.
The United States, ahead 8-4 entering the final day in the biennial amateur event, split the four morning foursomes matches and won seven of the 10 afternoon singles matches.
The U.S. leads the series 35-8-1. In 2011, Britain and Ireland won 14-12 at Royal Aberdeen in Scotland.
The 35-year-old Smith, a four-time U.S. Mid-Amateur champion from Pittsburgh, won the par-3 13th and par-4 14th with pars and ended the match with a halve for bogey on the par-4 15th.
DAVIDSON, N.C. (AP) - Andrew Svoboda won the Chiquita Classic, beating Will MacKenzie with a par on the first hole of a playoff in the second tournament in the four-event Web.com Tour Finals series.
Svoboda tapped in for par on the par-5 18th, and won when MacKenzie - who eagled the hole in regulation - missed a 5-footer. Svoboda shot a 2-under 70 to match MacKenzie at 12 under. MacKenzie finished with a 67.
SAINTE-JULIE, Quebec (AP) - Esteban Toledo won the Montreal Championship for his second Champions Tour victory of the season, chipping in for birdie to beat Kenny Perry on the third extra hole.
The 50-year-old Toledo shot a 3-under 69 to match Perry at 5-under 211 on La Vallee du Richelieu's Rouville Course. Perry, the Senior Players Championship and U.S. Senior Open winner in consecutive tour starts this summer, had a 70.
NEW YORK (AP) - Texas and Southern California dropped out of The Associated Press college football poll after ugly losses and Miami jumped in at No. 15 after its biggest victory in a while.
Alabama is still No. 1 after an off week, heading into a much-anticipated rematch with No. 6 Texas A&M on Saturday. Oregon is No. 2. Clemson moved up a spot to No. 3 and Ohio State slipped one to No. 4. Stanford remains No. 5.
The Longhorns came into the weekend ranked 15th, but a 40-21 loss at BYU in which Texas allowed a school-record 550 yards rushing has Mack Brown's team unranked.
Southern California was No. 25 before a 10-7 loss at home to Washington State.
Miami is ranked for the first time since November 2010.
SAN ANTONIO (AP) - Tulsa's Riquna Williams broke the WNBA scoring record with 51 points in the Shock's 98-65 win agains the San Antonio Silver Stars.
The second-year guard out of Miami surpassed the previous record of 47 points set by Phoenix's Diana Taurasi against Houston on Aug. 10, 2006 and matched by Seattle's Lauren Jackson against Washington on July 24, 2007.
Williams, who came into the game averaging 14.4 points, was 17 for 28 from the field and hit eight 3-pointers for Tulsa. The 23-year-old had 20 points in the third quarter after scoring 16 in the first half.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Oracle Team USA came flying out of the fog around Mark 4 and stayed ahead of Emirates Team Zealand in a heart-stopping sprint to the finish to win Race 4 of the America's Cup by 8 seconds.
Finally, there were backslaps and smiles from the beleaguered defending champions.
It was the first victory of the regatta for Oracle, which still has a long way to go to keep the oldest trophy in international sports. Owned by software billionaire Larry Ellison of Oracle Corp., Oracle Team USA was docked two points by an international jury in the biggest cheating scandal in the regatta's 162-year history. That meant the Americans started at minus-2.
Oracle needs to win 10 more races to keep the silver trophy.

Town Square
Mail-in ballots in Alamo close to 50 percent
Original post made on Feb 5, 2009

Don't be confused by the mis-information and scare tactics of the anti-incorporation people- read the Alamo Today endorsement. Alamo should incorporate because
1) Alamo residents should be making Alamo decisions
2) Alamo service funding security will improve after incorporation
3) Alamo's loose collection of neighborhoods need to come together to meld ourselves into a functioning town with a plan for the future.
on Feb 6, 2009 at 8:32 am
Why heavens, no!, don't actually discuss any real issues or concerns that might occur because of incorporation. Label this real concerns "scare tactics" and then refuse to address them. Yep, that's the way to deal with your fellow Alamo residents that, by the way, do love Alamo, too.
Let's just go with that Fiscal Analysis compiled by an ardent leader of his own city's incorporation (2000) in Rancho Santa Margarita (one square mile larger than the proposed "Town of Alamo")that went from a total budget of $6 million in 2000/1 all the way to $17 Million for the current year. The police budget went from $2.75 M to $7.5 M for the current year. That's nearly a tripling of both the main budget and the police services budget in 9 years. Yet he says our police budget will only go up by 60% in ten years. Well, I don't know, sounds like an inaccurate projection to me. But, what the heck, just buy what he says, don't question the numbers, we can always "work it out later" when it hits the fan.
How about that $1.5 M per year income from the Vehicle License Fee Distribution that forms a sizable foundation for your "fiscally solvent" town? Gee, that was CANCELLED...THAT'S RIGHT, CANCELLED!!! last October. (Only reinstated on a provisional and limited basis in January.) Yeah, we shouldn't be concerned, just pass the IRROVOCABLE incorporation measure and we'll just fumble by.
You proponents are like robots with your irritating, unquestioning marching to a dogmatic drum. Independent? You want representation? What will you say when the "independent" town council tells you that you MUST accept 30+ new housing units PER YEAR based on incomes that range from $25,000 up because the STATE tells you that you WILL do so? Oh well, it is what it is, and "WE CAN DO IT!!!" Right. Let's not bring up any unpleasant truths now or discuss these issues, let's just get the job done and then "WE CAN DO IT!!!" later. Well, later is too late.
For those on the proponent side that actually are interested in the facts of what happens when a town incorporates, why don't you just Google "Town of Danville-Documents" and then scroll down through the thousands and thousands of rules, regulations, requirements, dictates, on and on into every aspect of human life and action. Is this really what you want? Every single movement you make regulated by some nitwit?
The towns in this Valley have been side by side for decades; why does Alamo look different? To any sentient observer, it's obvious: we're not an incorporated city. Period. The other areas incorporated and they look the way they look because of that. It's called the HOUSING ELEMENT and despite what proponents says, it's a fact of life and YOU WILL GET FORCED HOUSING GROWTH, Period. Look up California State Department of Housing, Community Development and read it for yourself. AIM tries to pull a sleight of hand by coyly saying the "the town won't be required to build..." No, the town won't send out IT'S employees to buy the land and build the buildings themselves, literally, but they will have to rezone properties to higher densities, allow second dwellings and, yes, allow the construction of LOW INCOME HOUSING.
And lastly, we moved here to be left alone, not to be MELDED into what somebody else wants out of this issue. This is a free area, unencumbered by relentless political and social pressure from a local government. Isn't that what most people want? Look at the Town of Danville Documents under "Code Enforcement"; they send their snoopers out into all the older neighborhoods to find "code violations" so they can fine you and make you comply with whatever they've decided lately is the going code.
You can't change and keep what you've had. Once you change, you've changed and that's that. With incorporation there's no going back. Vote No on Incorporation...No on Measure A on March 3, 2009. If you want to keep Alamo the way it is, Leave it the way it is. It's this way because it was left alone.
on Feb 6, 2009 at 10:14 am
Like one of the candiates, Joseph Rubay, I attended Monte Vista High School and California State University East Bay. I too am a CPA with former "Big Eight" experience. I too have experience with budgets and have great respect for their preparation and use. It is because of this that I am STRONGLY OPPOSED TO MEASURE A. Please Alamo residents don't believe the "faiy tale", save Alamo's future, vote NO on A. My family has lived in Alamo since 1972. I like the sense of this wonderful community as is. I really am concerned by the constant statements from candidates and proponents for incorporation that incorporation will "strengthen the sense of community". Ask yourself, what does that really mean and at what cost?

Domestic violence in the panhandle is increasing and becoming more severe according to area crisis centers.
Women, men and children have all been victims of domestic violence in the area. Police and crisis centers tell us they've seen cases increasing over the years and the severity is getting worse.
Catholic Charities of the Texas Panhandle Immigration Counselor Al Muñiz says, "More people. More women are coming and are saying what is happening at their homes. And how they are suffering."
Amarillo Police Department Corporal Jerry Neufeld says, "You will see everything from a very minor simple assault of pushing or shoving. Maybe even a slapping or a punching. All the way up unfortunately to a homicide."
In a matter of about a decade, there's been more than 25,000 cases of domestic violence in Amarillo according to police.
From 2009 to 2010 there were about 40 more cases. 2010 to 2011 an additional 40. And from 2011 to last year close to 100 more victims.
Muñiz says, "You will be surprised the amount of men that are coming to our office."
Family Support Services has as many as 25 victims of all ages at any given time, most of whom are women. They had around 1,000 crisis hotline calls last year, from people seeking information about domestic violence or help.
Amarillo's Family Support Services Crisis Services Coordinator Angie Stoval says, "When a woman or a victim of domestic violence is trying to leave that relationship, that is the most dangerous time. Most likely time that they will be killed."
An area crisis center in Deaf Smith County says they're also seeing an increase every year. Interim Executive Director Carol Robinson has worked in the domestic violence field for over 20 years.
She believes nowadays a lot of abuse has to do with the use of drugs like methamphetamine. Robinson says, "If they feel invincible because of the drug, then they're not going to think about the consequences."
She says the cases are also becoming more severe over the years. In the last five years, they've seen three deaths. That's including both women and men. Robinson says, "For a community this size, that's a lot."
If you're living through domestic violence right now, there is help available. Robinson says, "We help with housing, get them to a shelter, if they need it, immediately that night if we need to drive them somewhere."
Stoval says, "We do offer shelter, safe house, non-disclosed location where they can come and be safe. Go to work, go to school. "
If you need help, you can call:

For a long time owner, Sandra, wanted to write by the sea. She went in search of a remote world, quiet, where the blue was obvious. One day, she landed in Cancun and the attraction of the Mayan land was overwhelming. She took a small plane and flew over the island of Holbox.
Nothing was more attractive to her than the Feast of the colors of nature, barefoot fishermen with their gold teeth, women weaving hammocks or sheathed with their heels in the sand. "I want to do something here, " she said and began to imagine in her head this project now called "the hotel with a human touch" on this very beach.
The land of more than 150 species of birds, whale shark, or Damero world's largest fish, mangroves in each corner, all were an inspiration to this artist.
Then she wanted to welcome friends from around the world and to express, through a hotel on the island of Holbox, a point of view on life: "peace and art are a great treasure for humans. " Because of this she thought of a place that is romantic, sexy, creative, where the personalized, warm, rustic atmosphere in a luxurious 17 Suites and 1 Luxury Villa that look to the sea, where one could meet the privacy and whims of its guests. All done out of love and passion. The same place where one can dream and create, and in the best case, where one can rest.
The joy of giving and expressing a new way of caring for guests, has been the commitment of the hotel. Every detail has a reason: from the small art gallery with paintings by renowned artists to the beautiful furniture that inhabit the halls.
Feelings, emotions, poetry, touches of color, aromas of black coffee, hammocks, fabric on the balconies, fluffy sheets, the sea at every angle, and romantic evenings create the magic of the "place of your dreams. "

I traveled to Lincoln for board training and strategic planning on February 8. Nebraska's board comprises both business executives and educators. The meeting was hosted by Design Data Corp., which has a representative on the board. I sent the completed draft of the strategic plan to them the following week.
That evening, the association held a student leadership dinner followed by a SkillsUSA Nebraska Foundation fundraiser. More than 400 people attended the event held at a private car collection museum valued in the millions of dollars and owned by a local entrepreneur. Sales of tickets, a silent auction, and a donation of $10,000 from Nebraska Machinery – the local Caterpillar dealer group – netted the foundation approximately $24,000 for the evening. A real highlight was the endorsement of SkillsUSA by Kelly Beach, an executive from Nebraska Machinery. In her remarks, she spoke of the strong network of SkillsUSA, how students benefit and the fact that the dealership uses SkillsUSA to recruit employees.
Congratulations and thanks go to Greg Stahr, state association director and former SkillsUSA board member, Tony Glenn, for the great work they're doing.

Minutes after the pope went back into the palace at Castel Gandolfo, the crowd of several thousand in the piazza outside has disappeared.
Many of the faithful have crammed into the two coffee bars on the square to warm up. Locals, meanwhile, headed home for dinner.
Swiss Guards are still standing at the entrance to the palace. But each is wearing a dark blue woolen mantle down to their knees over their colorful uniforms, trying to stay warm in the winter chill.
In less than 90 minutes, Pope Benedict XVI will be retired.

What is the best practice to deal with canvas size with css
I've loaded my images to canvas to manipulate them at pixel level.
However, the best practice I can find is to set canvas size like this:
<canvas id=c width=800 height=600></canvas>
#c { width: 800px; height: 600px; }
How do I keep the image quality with css as I need my website to be responsive.
Thank you,

Thank you very much for your help.
It doesn't explain how to control canvas with css.
Still image is not quite a problem. It's the video.
I conceal both images and videos in the background. So users will only see canvas and it would display both still and motion images base on user's interaction (load the content to it).
With static setting of the HTML DOM, it can't be responsive in regard to user's device screen.

I don't really think his is a CSS question as such but I've not really delved into the canvas element so this may be wide of the mark. However, from what I gather the canvas element element is a fixed size and if you are trying to stretch it with percentage measurements then you would need to redraw it which of course would take some time.
If you are saying that width:800px in the CSS behaves differently from width="800px" in the html then that sounds odd but of course the solution is to use the html attributes instead. If on the other hand you are using percentages in the css then that is likely to be awkward and you can find some relevant info below.

The prosecution began its final arguments in the corruption trial of former Governor Rod Blagojevich Monday.
Blagojevich brought his two daughters , ages 7 and 14, to court to hear prosecutors allege the ex-Governor is not only a crook, he's an unsuccessful one.
Defense Attorneys have argued that Blagojevich "never made a dishonest dime" while he was Governor, but prosecutors say that wasn't for lack of trying.
"The law doesn't require you to be a successful crook, it just requires you to be a crook," said Prosecutor Chris Niewoehner.
Monday the prosecution did drop one criminal count against Robert Blagojevich, the former Governor's brother and co-defendant.
It's now expected that the defense will begin their final statements Tuesday morning.
However late Monday, Sam Adam Jr., Defense Attorney, got into an argument with Judge James Zagle, telling the jury who the Prosecution did not call as witnesses.
Zagle forbid that; Adam said he wouldn't obey, even though Zagle threatened him with jail time.

At this point, the discovery of a body in a burned pickup truck is being treated as a fatal traffic accident, according to Fayette County Sheriff Marty Fisher.
Sheriff Fisher told KWWL Tuesday night that several false rumors are out there about what exactly happened.
"I believe there are a lot of false rumors going out through social media, and obviously we're getting a lot of those, so we're just investigating all leads," he said.
When asked if his office and the DCI are treating the case as a traffic accident right now, Sheriff Fisher said they were.
"It went off the roadway and did strike some trees fully engulfed in flames, and that's what we're treating it as right now," Fisher said.
In a press release, the Sheriff's Office said the one-vehicle accident at Echo Road and 180th Street near Elgin happened at 4:25 a.m. Tuesday.
Sheriff Fisher told KWWL a passerby saw the burning truck and called 911. When emergency crews responded, the vehicle was still engulfed in flames.
After the fire was extinguished, deputies identified the pickup truck as belonging to Steven Bilden of rural Elgin. Bilden is not the victim of the crash, according to officials.
While authorities believe they know the name of the victim, the body has not yet been formally identified.
"The deceased body is believed to be a roommate of Steven Bilden's," the Sheriff's Office said in a release. "However, the official identification is pending an autopsy report."
The Wadena Fire and first responders as well as Tri State Ambulance assisted at the scene.

Two people in their 70s and two children under the age of 10 are believed to have died in a house fire in Bedford County late Sunday night.
The fire occurred at a home on Kingdom Road around 11 p.m.
The victims have been identified as 72-year-old Leon McClaran, Molly McClaran, 70, Chloe Pope, 9, and 7-year-old Gage Daniel.
The McClarans' bodies have been recovered, but crews continue to search for the remains of the children.
The children, who attended Community Elementary School in Unionville, TN, were the couple's step-grandchildren, according to family members.
Bedford County Sheriff Randall Boyce said he believed the home was a two-story house that collapsed into the basement.
The cause of the fire has not been released.
As awful as the story is, neighbors said the situation could have been even more tragic. There had been talk of a friend spending the night with Chloe, and now, mother Rebecca Teague can only be left to wonder.
The Teagues have lived just up the driveway from the McClarans for years, and Teague said his 7-year-old daughter, Autumn, had been begging for a Sunday night sleepover with Chloe.
"I said, 'Baby, it's a school night. You'll be able to see Chloe in the morning,'" Teague said.
But Autumn never got that chance.
"They were very special to me and my family," Teague said.
Autumn and Chloe used to ride horses together and play on the driveway between their homes.
"It's scary to think my little girl could've been in there, but thank goodness she wasn't," Teague said.

Try taking out some of the slot machines, especially at the embarkation entrances! Nothing deflates expectations more than a smoky dark casino when you're expecting soaring ceilings and art deco cruise ship glamour.
Try looking after children more seriously. In particular, either put in a safety ledge for the dangerous drop off in the children's pool or put a lifeguard in the lifeguard chair. We didn't see a lifeguard at the pool once in two whole weeks. It's not fair to expect parents to know that the drop off is there and also to expect them to supervise without help in a noisy, crowded, alcohol laden environment. Toddlers don't drown in a splashy way, they sink under water quietly and forget to breathe. Read up on it.
Turn the music down! Then turn it down another notch! The Blue Man Show was the worst culprit at a noise level that could cause permanent hearing loss after just 10 minutes exposure (look up the stats).
Look after teenagers better too. My daughter and I were approached by a young teenager with her friend who were personally warning all the girls on the ship about a fifteen year old boy who assaulted them ("he hit me over the head and tried to drag me to his cabin"). When I found two security men for the girls to talk to, another girl joined the group and said he had done the same thing. I was less than impressed by the apparent lack of support from security who appeared not to treat these as a serious incidents despite that fact that the girls knew which boy was involved and could have pointed him out. Put simply, it's not fair to encourage parents to let their teenagers roam all over the ship and then look the other way when there is a serious risk of harm.
Having said all that, we enjoyed our cruise but would not cruise with NCL again and am very reluctant to take another cruise in general. Our prior cruise was with NCL in Hawaii which we really enjoyed but this may have been because there was a port day every day. On this cruise, we found that the days at sea dragged by. Also on the Hawai there was well-treated American staff but on this cruise we were confronted with the first world passenger/ third world staff divide- although endemic to the cruise ship industry, it is not something we want to participate in again.

QuoteThe last thing I need is a touch screen.
I won't entirely dismiss a touch screen, but I do wonder how that would work. As it is, every time I look through the viewfinder I end up with smudges on the screen. I wonder how they'd prevent me from changing settings with my nose.
Keep in mind too, that with phone touch screens, you have to have special gloves for the winter. Never say never, but I just have a hard time getting my head around the idea that this would be a good thing.
The proximity sensor will probably disable the touchscreen when it is up to your face. Much like phones do. The screen already turns off when triggered by the proximity sensor.
That being said. I want a touchscreen about as much as I want a swivel screen, which is not at all.
How do you compose your shots 1 inch above the surface of water? Or freezing mud? What above those overhead shots with arms fully stretched out? How do you deal with camera mounted on a fully extended monopod peeking through the side of the helicopter, on a speedboat, over the balcony from 60th floor of a tower or a moving car tracking another?
Truth is, unless you hook up an external LCD monitor, you can't do any of these shots without the flip-out screen.
But these are extreme examples. Personally, I find a fully articulate screen on my G11 a true blessing. I am sick and tired of squatting and standing like a spaz behind my camera mounted on a tripod because I'm 6'5". My neck starts hurting, my knees wanna pop-out. I compose ALL of my shots on a flip-out screen and it's a dream come true because I always look at the camera from the most comfortable position. I dictate its place, not the other way round. Last time I used a viewfinder was on my Minolta Dynax 9Xi in 1998. I learned photography in the early 90s and of course used a conventional viewfinder. Looking back - I really don't I miss it. It's a remnant of another era. You can't see the image as sensor sees it. No DOF preview without dimming. No colour balance preview. No this, not that. Sorry, I can't accept that in 2011.
Today, I use the viewfinder only if LCD gets too dim in a direct daylight...which almost never happens.
This is how I see it: people feared cars when horses were the only means of transportation. No one appreciated photography 120 years ago because it wasn't considered a true art. Nobody wanted sound in the era of silent films and LCD screens were unheard of in 35mm film cameras. Get used to a good thing mate, it's here to serve you and make your life easy. Good ahead and flame me now.
Actually, you can - you should know your camera good enough to estimate the filed of view.
With today's megapixel count you can easily frame a bit wider to allow you to level the image.
And it's not that difficult to do at all.
I'm sure you can but why would you when there's technology that takes guesstimation out of the equation? I'll choose to control my composition versus shooting in the dark any day.

The win lifts Springfield's record to 4-1 on the year. The Owls fall to 1-3 with the loss.
Springfield, which was ranked 19th in the country this week and handled 8th-ranked Middlebury 14-5 on Wednesday, put together a dominating performance on its Spring Break trip to Florida.
Other than Sheehan, Shane Ferguson netted three first-half goals while Mike Delia dished out three helpers. Both Ryan Murphy and Ryon Lynch each registered a goal and two assists and Eric Balslov added two helpers.
At the face-off "X", Branden Fernandez was extremely effective, winning 10-of-15 draws. The Pride split the goalkeeping duties, with Robert Maher making seven saves in the opening half and classmate Connor Nash posted 10 saves in the second 30 minutes of play.
The Pride is back in action on Saturday afternoon when it plays hosts to rival Endicott at 3:00 pm. The Gulls were ranked 14th in the country in this week's USILA National Poll.

Relaxing week, cozy home, beautiful Lake George
This is a cozy home - nicely decorated and well-maintained. Our two dogs (100-lb Golden Retriever and 12-lb Yorkiepoo) joined my husband and me for a week of vacation and all of us had a wonderful time. We enjoyed DVDs (our own) on the comfy leather chairs in the living room. The internet connection was excellent (our own devices). The outdoor table and chairs allowed outdoor dining and we used the dining room when it rained. The kitchen was equipped for us to make our meals which we mostly ate "at home" since we had our dogs (who loved the big yard!) The main bath is great - very roomy - with a large counter with double sink. The washer and dryer were a nice convenience too. The main bedroom was large enough for us and both dog crates. The bed was clean and comfortable. Although we didn't need the, there were two bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. Even though it was a cooler-than-average July week, The air conditioners worked well and kept it comfortable. The wraparound porch with rockers and a swing were very relaxing and where we spent most of our time. The lake view was minimized because all of the trees were in full-leaf. But it is a really clear, clean beautiful lake. And the surrounding Adirondacks are stunning. The stars at night were an added bonus! Lots of places to hike and casual walk. Lake George Village isn't far and has nice restaurants and little shops. Just a little further and there are outlet stores, water and amusement parks as well as elaborate mini-golf places. There's even a drive-in theater. Bolton Landing is very close too - nice, but smaller and not as dog-friendly. Mike, the owner, and I communicated through email - which he always promptly answered. We enjoyed our stay on Trout Lake Road and would recommend this property.

ANDERSON, Ind. —
The cool classics of big band music are headed back to Anderson when the Cool City Band returns to the Paramount Theatre to open the annual Big Band Series.
The Cool City Band, based in Indianapolis, will kick off the series at 7:30 p.m. Thursday. Tickets are $25 for adults and $10 for students with identification.
Series tickets, which include concerts in 2013 by the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra on April 22 and The Carolyn Martin Swing Band on May 16, are $60. They can be purchased at the Paramount box office, 1124 Meridian Plaza, Anderson, through www.andersonparamount.org or by calling (765) 642-1234.
Thursday's performance reunites the Cool City band with the Paramount, said Cool City's director Ray Geesa. The band played the series in 2010.
"I am absolutely dumbfounded with the Paramount. It is an astonishing place to see … it is absolutely uplifting," Geesa said.
The band will be joined by three singers:
- Cozette Myers of Pendleton, who records locally and recently joined the band
- Laney Wilson, whose sound is like Michael Buble or Frank Sinatra, Geesa said.
- Jimmy Guilford, who has been singing professionally for 64 years.
"We also going to concentrate hard on making sure we have a number of instrumental where we feature ensemble work. … We have some of the best jazz players," Geesa said.
Other band members are Forrest Means, a Grammy-nominated trumpet player; Danny Huey, trombone; John Nelson, alto sax; Tom Clarke, tenor sax; Tom Meyer, baritone sax; Jon Block, bass, and Craig Waltz, drums. Nelson is from Anderson and has traveled with the Guy Lombardo and Glenn Miller bands.
Geesa, a former music teacher, co-founded the Cool City Swing Band in 1999.
After working his way through college by playing piano in ragtime bars and night clubs, Geesa left the Jordan College of Music at Butler University with a masters degree and has performed in nearly every venue in Indianapolis. Geesa has led the band at more than 1,500 engagements across the Midwest since becoming band leader in the 1970s.
Among the selections are "Two O'Clock Jump," Duke Ellington's "Caravan" and Louis Armstrong's "Jeepers Creepers." The band has its own arranger, Geesa said.

Jekyll & Hyde
enjoyed a record-breaking Broadway run and is now touring the British Isles. With Paul Nicholas at the lead, MC2 E Series amplification plays a major part in Stage Electrics' authentic recreation of Broadway's glitzy sound across the Atlantic.
"The show has actually been around as a musical for about 15 years, so it quite popular among musical theatregoers, but over here their reference point is generally from the Broadway CD. So, when they come to see it in a live environment, it's very important to the producers, UK Productions, that the sound of the show refers back to that," says sound designer Glen Beckley. "We were looking for a cinematic feel, so it's quite shiny and polished."
Beckley uses a horn loaded PA system comprising EAW KF300e, Funktion One AX88s in the center cluster, and some EAW SB330 subs. He also uses 18 Pro-Ac delays when necessary.
"My whole approach to PA systems is that I want them to have 'authority' in the way they deliver," explains Beckley. "That's one of the reasons I still love working with horn loaded speakers – there's something in the way that they grip hold of a sound and fire it out at you, that gives it an attitude and an authority. However, they are a lot more sensitive to being set up properly and it's very easy to get it wrong. You're pretty much relying on the quality of your equipment, your instinct, and experience to get it right. Obviously this means you've got to have great amplification, which is where MC2 comes in."
The system uses a combination of MC2 E45s on subs, E25s and E15s. There are eight sub cabinets with one amp channel per sub, giving the system a weight to its response. "Whatever the level and whatever the frequency, the system is always all there," says Beckley. "With this system, the really low notes are as present as the really high ones, and at the end of the day it's as much down to the amps as anything else.
"Essentially the E Series is a lightweight, easy to handle package," he continues. "It has a musical response and a depth of ability that one really shouldn't be able to get out of a switchmode system. It works fantastically."
