Why Rent From Us?
We are the personal property manager of the owner. We are a local family owned business.
Conventional wisdom says that you get a better deal if there is no manager involved. This is largely untrue in a high mountain environment like ours. Either the owner is using a management service on the side and ultimately building this cost into the rate or they are leaving everything to chance. Little problems are a BIG deal at 9,000 feet above sea level and in subzero temps. We are there if you lose your key. Being locked out of your condo in sub-zero temps is no fun. This is not a scare tactic. Every year we help several hundred guests with lock-out problems.
Fees and Taxes
We are required by law to charge tax on your stay.
We want to be clear, taxes and cleaning fees are not included in the posted rates. We will send you a quote with the breakdown of all costs, so you can see EXACTLY what you are paying.
Many of our competitors build their fees into their rate. This means that YOU are PENALIZED every day you stay with them because you keep paying for the same service over and over again.
Please make an apples to apples comparison. If you present us with a legitimate and comparable quote from someone else, we will beat it by 10%.
Guaranteed Best Price:
If you like to look for deals, then help us stay current with our deals. We will pay you to do your research. If you find a better deal on a comparable property, then provide us with clear evidence and we will beat the deal by 10%.
Our rates are as good as the best you will find. You are gaining peace of mind and losing nothing. Your vacation is meant to be enjoyed. We are here to make your experience hassle free.

SODDY DAISY, TN (WRCB) -- The TVA has applied with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to extend operating licenses for both units at Sequoyah Nuclear Plant. Those licenses expire in 2020 and 2021."By applying for a 20-year extension of our current operating license now, we are affirming to the NRC that our plant is safe and in solid material condition," said Chief Nuclear Officer Preston Swafford.The TVA Board of Directors approved the recommendation to file a license renewal application. The license renewal process is expected to cost approximately $23 million, including NRC charges to TVA to review the applications.Renewing the existing licenses will allow the plant to operate until 2040 and 2041, respectively. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission initially licenses nuclear plants for 40 years of operation, with an opportunity to request a license extension for an additional 20-year period. The NRC will hold local public meetings over the next two years as part of the license application process. TVA developed its own environmental report, as part of its application, to support the NRC review.Each of Sequoyah's two reactors can produce more than 1,160 megawatts of electrical power, enough electricity to supply about 1.3 million homes. Sequoyah has over 800 full-time employees.

Prehistoric marine reptiles, both alien and awe-inspiring, at once utterly inhuman and somehow irresistibly compelling. Nothing can prepare you for this amazing plunge into the Cretaceous oceans of 80 million years ago, a merciless realm ruled by some of the most ferocious animals ever to stalk the seas of planet Earth. It scarcely seems possible that these swift, massive underwater predators actually existed, but they did, and this is their fascinating, unforgettable story.

Roughly how many hours to code a wordpress template?
I know this is one of those "How long is a piece of string questions", but I thought I'd ask.
If the client provides you with the necessary PSD files for a homepage, content page, and all the relevant blog pages, how long roughly do you think it would take to convert those PSD files to HTML, convert them to a wordpress template and then install/setup wordpress.

That's a very subjective question. It depends on:
1) How experienced the developer is at turning PSDs into code
2) How familiar the developer is with wordpress themes
3) How complicated the PSD/template is.
4) The scope of the project/website.
I've seen some development shops whip up a template in two weeks. I've seen others spend a month or two, but those tended to be larger sites.Visit The Blog | Follow On Twitter

For the sake of getting a rough idea, lets say the developer is experienced at both psd to HTML and Wordpress, and HTML wasn't too complicated.
HTML would include a drop down menu, and flex slider. I could normally create a homepage, content page and contact page in between 4-6 hours, but I don't know how much more time would be required for any additional pages needed for Wordpress, I.e. blog etc etc.
In my head I'm thinking that 16 would be enough to do it all, but I think I could be underestimating it.

Akis and I talked about:
- The NBA Draft is Thursday night, hear our predictions!
- What does Akis think about CJ McCollum?
- What will happen with Tyreke Evans in restricted free agency?
- What should the Kings do about DeMarcus Cousins?
- What will happen with the roster this offseason?

Students 'spring' to action with Habitat for Humanity
More than 10,500 students 'spring' to action with Habitat for Humanity
AMERICUS, Ga., (Feb. 8, 2005) – More than 10,500 high school and college students across the country will trade textbooks for tool belts during Habitat for Humanity's Collegiate Challenge spring break program.
Between Feb.13 and April 16, students from the United States, Canada, Japan and Germany will travel to 237 locations across the United States to work with volunteers and Habitat homeowners to build simple, decent and affordable homes.
This year's most popular destinations are Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
Throughout its 16-year history, 105,000 Collegiate Challenge volunteers have raised more than $9 million to build Habitat houses. This year, Collegiate Challenge students will contribute $1 million to help build Habitat homes.
"Students who participate in Collegiate Challenge are excited to travel to new places, gain new skills and make new friends while helping build a Habitat for Humanity home," said Alynn Woodson, Collegiate Challenge manager at Habitat for Humanity International. "In exchange for their building efforts, students learn firsthand about poverty housing issues and about how they can make a meaningful difference today, as well as in the future."
Collegiate Challenge stories:
Nearly 60 Boston University students will travel to Arkansas, Alabama, Florida and South Carolina to help build homes. Colin Cookman, president of the Boston University Habitat Campus Chapter, is leading one of the trips to Bunnell, Fla. After spending spring break with Habitat his freshman year, Cookman decided to spend every spring break for the next three years leading Collegiate Challenge trips. "It's a really good experience," said Cookman. "It is my favorite part of Habitat, to go out there and physically, visibly make a difference." Contact: Colin Cookman, 617-272-5819
Students from The Catholic University of America have participated in Collegiate Challenge spring break for the past six years. They have expanded their outreach so that this year 75 students will be traveling to Kentucky, South Carolina, Florida and Texas. The Habitat campus chapter has been fund raising all year, with events such as talent shows, bake sales and an upcoming auction. "I heard about Habitat when I was in elementary school, and since then I've been trying to help out," said Katie Cavan, campus chapter president. "It is a great way to give back." Contact: Katie Cavan, 508-245-2679
Habitat affiliate host sites are preparing for Collegiate Challenge as well. Columbus Area Habitat for Humanity in Georgia is preparing for more than 200 students from 10 colleges and universities from March 6-11. Students will participate in a "blitz build," where volunteers will put up all the framing, siding and roofing on a Habitat home in just one week. Columbus Area Habitat has hosted students for Collegiate Challenge Spring Break for the past five years. Mike Cobb, the affiliate's executive director, said that the students' willingness to work is a great part of the program. "Students are very eager to work, fun to be around and excited about what their doing," said Cobb. Contact: Mike Cobb, 706-653-6003
Collegiate Challenge is Habitat for Humanity's year-round alternative break program, where groups of students from youth groups, high schools and colleges spend a week of their school break building a house in partnership with a Habitat for Humanity affiliate in the United States. Students also raise money to contribute toward house construction. To date, the Collegiate Challenge program has raised nearly $10 million for Habitat affiliates.
Habitat for Humanity International, based in Americus, Ga., is an ecumenical Christian ministry dedicated to eliminating poverty housing. By the end of 2005, Habitat will have built its 200,000th house and more than one million people will be living in Habitat homes they helped build and are buying through no-profit, zero-interest mortgages. www.habitat.org

Now that the Maryland Terrapins have landed the commitment of former Xavier Musketeer Dez Wells, the program is expected to aggressively pursue a waiver of the NCAA mandate that requires a transfer to sit out two academic semesters. The waiver could be granted as it seems the incoming sophomore was wrongfully expelled from Xavier on Aug. 21.
Last season as a freshman, Wells averaged 9.8 points and 4.9 rebounds per game for the Musketeers. The production helped the 6'5, 215-pound guard earn a 2012 Atlantic-10 All-Rookie Team selection. If Wells played at Xavier this season, he would have entered the season as the team's leading returning scorer.
Regardless if Wells is granted a waiver or not, the sophomore will have three years of eligibility remaining.
Be sure to stay with this StoryStream for more news on Wells' dismissal from school, and head over to Testudo Times for the Maryland reaction. Visit SB Nation's college basketball hub for more coverage from around the country.

The Mexican-American Bar Association (MABA) said Wednesday it would endorse Eric Garcetti for mayor of Los Angeles.
According to a release from MABA, the organization said "we believe that his impressive professional accomplishments and personal integrity render him the best candidate in the primary."
MABA represents about 500 attorneys, judges, politicians and business leaders in the Los Angeles area.
A recent poll from Loyola-Marymount University showed Garcetti the favorite among Latinos.
It also showed he had a slight edge in a multi-candidate primary, though City Controller Wendy Gruel would have a slight lead in a runoff against Garcetti.
Garcetti is of Mexican ancestry on his father Gil's side, who is also of Italian ancestry.
Garcetti's Latino endorsers include fellow city council member Ed Reyes and Ana Ponce, head of Camino Nuevo charter schools.
Gruel has also picked up a number of impressive endorsers, including council member Jose Huizar, U.S. Congressman-elect Tony Cardenas and Ana Perez, president of the National Latina Business Women Association—Los Angeles.
Emanuel Alftredo Pleitez, another candidate in the race, is of Salvadoran and Mexican heritage, but is not considered a serious contender at this time.
Pleitz supporters demonstrated outside the downtown Los Angeles theater where Saturday's mayoral debate took place after he was excluded.
Other candidates in the race include former talk show host Kevin James and city council member Jan Perry, who along with Gruel and Garcetti participated in the debate.

Hockley man escapes further punishment after attacking ex-wife at Southend court
Updated 10:57am Friday 24th January 2014 in Echo News
A MAN won't be sentenced further for attacking his ex-wife and a court clerk after a judge said he didn't want to "add to the misery".
Simon Ramet, 39, from Hockley, was jailed for 20 months last October for repeatedly punching and kicking Christina Ramet and a clerk at Southend County Court.
He admitted offences of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and common assault after losing his temper during a hearing over contact with his 12-year-old son.
Ramet's charge of contempt then had to be dealt with by Sir James Munby, President of the Family Division at London's High Court.
Yesterday Sir James said he did not want to punish Ramet any further given the upset caused to a mum, dad and son in the case.
He also heard from Ramet's counsel, Anthony Jerman, who said his client's life had been ruined by the incident.
Sir James said he had concluded it would be wrong, as a matter of principle, for him to impose any additional sentence on Ramet as "to do so would be to punish him twice for the same conduct".
However, Sir James added: "None of this, nothing, I repeat, nothing, can begin to excuse what Mr Ramet did on that afternoon in court at Southend."

The Australian Press Council is responsible for promoting good standards of media practice, community access to information of public interest, and freedom of expression through the media. The Council is the principal body with responsibility for responding to complaints about Australian newspapers, magazines and associated digital outlets.
In accordance with its Constitution, the Council pursues these goals by
For an outline of the Council's current priorities for strengthening and expanding the work of the Council, see The Way Ahead (an extract from the Chair's Foreword to the Council's 2009-10 Annual Report).
The Council's work can be broadly divided into three main areas: Standards, Complaints and Policy.
The Council's standards of good media practice are contained in its Statements of Principles, Specific Standards and Advisory Guidelines. The standards are applied by the Council when considering complaints and are used as the basis for statements by Council representatives about good media practice, whether addressing practitioners within the industry, journalism students or the broader community. The Council also undertakes research and convenes conferences and seminars on aspects of media standards.
For further details about the Council's work in developing and monitoring standards, see Standards >>
The Council's mandate to consider complaints extends to all print publications and related digital outlets, such as websites, of publishers which are "constituent bodies" of the Council. Publications by these publishers comprise about 90% of all print media sales in Australia. For further details, see Constituent Bodies and their Publications.
The Council currently receives more than 450 complaints each year. About three-quarters of those which are fully pursued by the complainant result in a correction, apology or some other form of action being taken. Where the complaint cannot be resolved without a formal adjudication, the relevant publisher is required to publish the adjudication promptly and with due prominence.
For further details about how to make a complaint, how complaints are handled and the outcomes of complaints, see Complaints >>
The Council issues statements on policy matters within its areas of interest, including through submissions to parliamentary committees, commissions and other public bodies. It also undertakes research and convenes or participates in conferences and seminars on policy issues.
For further detail about developing and promoting policy, see Policy >>

Earlier today, Peter Chiarelli strengthened his team's top-nine attack by adding a future Hall of Famer to the mix.
"His career speaks for itself," the Bruins GM said of 41-year-old right wing Jaromir Jagr. "He's a strong player, protects the puck well. It's consistent with our style in the sense that there's a cycle element to his game. He's good on the half-wall, really good release, shot. He's just a real good player."

The signs are now posted at Mill Creek Green, where Tuesday night an alligator attacked and ate an 80-pound Husky.
City officials say feeding wild animals in the area may have unintended consequences. Such as attracting alligators who eat the wild animals.
Should authorities have shot the gator? Let us know on Facebook
Alligators are native to the New River and the creeks along the New River.
Mostly they eat fish, turtles and other small animals, but ducks become an attractive meal when they sit along the banks of the river.
Residents are also advised that they should keep their pets on leashes and keep children away from the water, especially at dawn and dusk.
The alligator believed to have attacked a dog was recovered by authorities earlier this week.
Jacksonville police shot the gator three times with a high powered rifle, said deputy chief Patrick Traitor of JPD. Its body resurfaced Wednesday afternoon and has been recovered.
N.C. Wildlife officials determined it was not safe to relocate the alligator.
NC Wildlife officials said they found the apparent remains of the dog within the alligator.
The alligator attacked an 80-pound Husky at the Mill Creek Green portion of Henderson Green at Henderson Drive and River Street on Tuesday night around dusk. The woman walking the dog wasn't hurt.
"I'm not surprised because I live in apartments just across the road and my landlord says there are gators in the water and I always see kids and their parents by the water," said Jacksonville resident Jennifer Simmons.
City officials said the incident reinforces that residents should not feed wild animals, including alligators and ducks.
They also advised that residents should keep their pets on leashes and keep children and pets away from the water, especially at dawn and dusk.

Editor's note: Richard Tisei, Republican candidate for the 6th Congressional District, could not be reached for comment as of press time.
Timothy Sherratt
Political science professor, Gordon College
Who won? Romney.
Why? He's finally on the level playing field with the president. Also, I think this part of the race has drifted more towards stories that have been negative for Romney, you know, criticisms that the campaign has had a lot of missteps....he didn't make missteps tonight. He was clear. He seemed very ready to debate.
Favorite moment? The fact that (Romney) got to talk in the opening about jobs gave him the opportunity right away to list problems that the administration had over four years. And then they closed by talking about the role of government, and I think Romney's very comfortable talking about that. I think Obama had a harder time making the argument that the federal government is an engine of change.
Rob Brown
Communications professor, Salem State University
Who won? Romney.
Why? I think he had more energy, I think he really looked like he wanted to be there, and I think the president looked like he didn't want to attack, and I think he got beaten in this debate.
Favorite moment? I think what really helped [Romney] was at the beginning, he began telling stories, he personalized the issues....Obama didn't do that until he talked about his grandmother.
John Tierney
Democrat Congressman, 6th Congressional District
Who won? Neither.
Why? I think both were very good at what they did. They both made the points they wanted to make.
Favorite moment? The president pointed out very clearly how Mitt Romney was talking about repealing a number of things but wouldn't talk about how he would replace them or what he would replace them with.

From FOX 25 Meteorologist Jon Bellemore:
Hopefully no one is sick of the fog yet because it's sticking around until at least Monday morning. We have a dense fog advisory for all of Massachusetts through 9 a.m. coupled with warm temperatures overnight, well above average in the upper 40s to low 50s.
Very early Monday morning we will likely see a spot shower or two, but that's about it. We start the morning off with warm temperatures and clouds, but will see clearing once a cold front passes through in the early afternoon.
The break in the sky is short lived as more clouds are in the forecast for early Tuesday which will likely bring some rain and snow for a short period, otherwise mostly cloudy and temperatures in the upper 40s.
Wednesday we can expect rain at most times under cloudy skies, but the good news is that we clear out for the end of the week and the weekend. The only downside to the clearing is our temperatures return to normal (mid 30s) for Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

I'm just a bit confusing about the pricing model for CC authors.
A full PHP social platform (example: http://codecanyon.net/item/php-social-network-platform/3740004) coming with both frontend and backend is $18, and a random themeforest wp theme could be $45, is that fair?
Yes, lots of WP theme selling on themeforest are very well designed and coded, I'm sure the authors must put lots of effort into it, but a full PHP system (database + backend admin + frontend) is so much more complicated than designing a theme in my opinion, the price difference shouldn't be that big.

text: 5 Romantic Movies You Can Stream Tonight by Fox News Magazine 10/10/12 1 Reactions 7 Shares Print 0 1 6 0 0 We're happy to present this story from one of our favorite sites, Fox News Magazine. Today, we get romantic movie recommendations from a film critic. There are plenty of adequate romantic movies on Netflix and Amazon Instant, but nobody wants to watch an adequate romantic movie when they could be watching a great one. The trouble is, it can be downright frustrating to find a great one when scouring the limited streaming offerings online. But don't cancel your plans for a night in just yet. Film critic Stephen Farber is here to prove that there are several great romantic movies available for streaming, and he should know — he's the president the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. Check out his picks now and get ready for a romantic evening at home. Who's Your Favorite "Sexiest Woman Alive"? The Refined Rules of Wedding Gift Etiquette Why Do Some People Think It's OK To Call Others Fat? Gone With the Wind What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The romance of Rhett Butler (Clark Gable) and Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh) is full of fiery conflict. She spends most of the four-hour movie resisting him, even though we can see from the outset that they are perfectly matched. When she finally realizes he's her man, their moment has passed. Actually, many years have passed, but sometimes it takes that long to recognize your true soul mate. This is the archetypal story of lovers at cross purposes, just missing their chance at happiness. Available for rental on Amazon Instant Video ($2.99) 1 / 5 Two For the Road What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Two for the Road has to be one of the most original love stories ever created. It surveys the evolution of a marriage over a ten-year period, but instead of telling the story in strict chronological order, it intercuts several different time periods, from their ecstatic initial courtship to their weary disillusionment after several years of marriage. Frederic Raphael's script poignantly captures the way in which time betrays the lovers' great expectations. Audrey Hepburn and Albert Finney do justice to the script's comedic and tartly melancholy observations. Available for rental on Amazon Instant Video ($2.99) 2 / 5 Casablanca What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Casablanca was chosen by the American Film Institute as the greatest romantic movie of all time, and who would disagree? The movie also has some of the best romantic lines every penned: "Here's looking at you, kid" and "We'll always have Paris." It's the best story of romantic sacrifice ever filmed. Rick and Ilsa part for the sake of a better world — and there wasn't a dry eye in the house. The music that accompanies their romance ("As Time Goes By") helps to build the mood, and the pairing of Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman represents Hollywood star power at its mightiest. Available for rental on Amazon Instant Video ($2.99) 3 / 5 Woman of the Year What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Woman of the Year was the first of nine movies that Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy made together, and their chemistry is palpable in their sexiest outing together. Hepburn plays a political columnist, and Tracy is a sports reporter on the same newspaper, and their sparring matches sizzle. The film was way ahead of its time in portraying a powerful, articulate career woman who takes charge of everything but her own unpredictable emotions. Available for rental on Amazon Instant Video ($2.99) 4 / 5 Brokeback Mountain What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The late director Sydney Pollack once commented that the most memorable love stories often end unhappily, focusing on lost opportunities rather than connubial bliss. And that may explain why this gay love story ranks with the most affecting ever filmed. Audiences straight and gay could relate to the story of a couple perpetually at odds — one partner (Jake Gyllenhaal) pressing for a deeper commitment than the other (the late Heath Ledger) seemed capable of giving. Fine performances and Ang Lee's astute, Oscar-winning direction contribute to the movie's impact.

On another page: part 2.
The Principles of Reforming our Spelling, [part 1]
by Edmund V. Starrett, Ed.D.**Excerpted from the Ed.D. Thesis of Edmund V. Starrett, Wayne State Univ., Detroit, Mich. 1981.
*Dearborn, Mich.
Beginning with an Augustinian monk named Orm at the start of the 13th century and extending through the following seven centuries; eminent linguists, educators, writers, statesmen & organizations have developed plans, schemes, proposals and ideas on how to change the spelling of English to make it more phonemic.
Over the centuries, these spelling reform proposals have varied greatly in purpose, nature and extent of change. They have been referred to by a myriad of different names: simplified, augmented, phonetic, phonemic, rational, revised and amended spellings, to name but a few.
Despite the nature and extent of these proposals, they fall rather naturally into six distinct categories according to the types of change.
One typeof proposal uses new letters or characters to augment or supplement the present alphabet. These new letters may be modifications of present letters or completely new symbols. John Hart, in 1569, and Alexander Gill, in 1619, were two of the earliest writers to recommend the use of additional letters. In the 19th century, Sir Isaac Pitman popularized Phonotypy, an augmented alphabet of 42 letters. Almost a century later, Sir James Pitman, grandson of Isaac, devised a new 45 symbol alphabet called the Initial Teaching Alphabet (i.t.a.) to assist beginning readers to learn to read.
A second typeof spelling reform proposal includes those that advocate supplementing the present alphabet by the use of diacritical marks placed over, under, or next to a particular letter to indicate pronunciation. Early enthusiasts of this type of change are 16th century educators William Bullokar and Richard Mulcaster, and American patriot Benjamin Franklin.
A third,and most popular way to achieve spelling simplification involves :the use of digraphs, or new letter combinations, to represent certain consonant, vowel and diphthong sounds, The first recorded spelling reformer, Orm, about the year 1200, doubled consonants following short vowels. Examples of more modern alphabets are Nue Spelling by the Simplified Spelling Society in England, Anglic by the Swedish linguist Robert Zachrisson, and World English by Godfrey Dewey.
A fourthcategory includes those proposals such as advocated by The American Philological Association at and after the turn of the century, and the Spelling Action Society a decade ago, which advocated and promoted systematic; limited and step-by-step reform beginning with a certain group of words and extending beyond that to other word groups as acceptance dictates.
A fifth,and least common, means of achieving spelling simplification is through the use of colors to signal certain sounds of the printed word. Color coding proposals, such as those popularized by Caleb Gattegno and Alex Bannatyne are not, strictly speaking, intended as examples of permanent reform of English orthography; rather they are, proposed as a means of teaching beginning reading to children and adults.
The sixth,and most radical, type of spelling reform involves the, total replacement of the present Roman alphabet with new letters or characters which may or may not have some visual relationship to the present alphabet. Such radical new alphabets are based on the idea that the present alphabet is so irregular and inconsistent that a complete overhaul of the alphabet is necessary; and they are devised so as to save space, time of writing, and may be considered as forms of shorthand. The alphabet of the George Bernard Shaw contest and the Deseret Alphabet of Brigham Young are examples of this type of reform.
Seven hundred years of spelling reform proposals seem to indicate a consistent desire on the part of some scholars to try to do something to improve the state of the orthography of the English language. It shows a need for such improvements. It also points out the failure of this group to bring it about. Perhaps some other tactical means is needed to bring about such changes.
One of the most debilitating characteristics of most spelling reform efforts; however, is the inability, to agree among themselves as to the nature and extent of the reform. Some have, for example, limited themselves to methods of overcoming the special difficulties faced by children learning to read; others have been concerned with devising 'a phonetic alphabet, subsidary to or augmented to the Roman one, in order to indicate the "correct" pronunciation of dictionaries, for use in grammars or learning textbooks. Still other reformers have devised and sought to promote radical systems of spelling and alphabet reform for the ultimate benefit of the whole English speaking world. Their solutions range from minor modifications which affect a few words to completely new alphabets which bear little or no visual relationship to the present Roman one. While most proposed that the reform be introduced as a single dose, others preferred a series of gradual installments.
Classification of Spelling Reform Proposals.Several authorities have made efforts to classify the different types of spelling reform proposals. Godfrey Dewey, for example, stated that English spelling could be simplified in three ways:
1) Standardizing the Roman alphabet by assigning to each single letter, and to each digraph selected to represent those sounds for which the available single letters do not suffice, a single sound.
2) Supplementing the Roman alphabet by assigning to each of the 23 useful letters a single invariable value and creating some 18 appropriately designed new letters.
3) Supplanting the Roman alphabet by creating and making available on typewriters and composing machines throughout the world at least 41 wholly new characters."
Tauber, in his Ph.D. Thesis, Spelling Reform in the United States, presents five classifications for spelling reform: Type I which has to do with systems of reform that rely on diacritical marks or modifiers to obtain a greater degree of regularity; Type II which has to do with those systems of spelling reform that seek minimal changes such as the elimination of silent letters or substitution of a letter or letters; Type III is an extension of Type II and uses digraphs to form new letter combinations; Type IV which has to do with adding new symbols to the alphabet, and Type V which has to do with systems of spelling reform which replace the letters of the present Roman alphabet with a whole new set of symbols.
This study will divide spelling reform proposals into the following categories for the purpose of a more logical presentation and comparison:
1) Augmented alphabets: Those alphabets proposed to add to the present Roman alphabet additional characters, or letters, resulting in an augmented or increased English alphabet. These new letters may be modifications of the present letters or completely new symbols or characters.
2) Diacritic Marks: Those systems of spelling reform wherein special marks are placed over, under, or next to a particular letter to indicate pronunciation generally with little change in the traditional spelling of the word. Sometimes these systems have been proposed merely to assist children in the beginning stages of reading. At other times, the proposals were serious attempts at permanent spelling reform.
3) Digraphic Alphabets: Those alphabets proposed to replace the present spelling system by omitting silent letters and using digraphs to represent certain consonants, vowels or diphthongs.
4) Word Simplification: Those proposals for spelling reform that rely chiefly on the omission of certain silent letters and the respelling of words to bring about simplification of certain groups of words.
5) Color Coding Systems: Those systems of spelling that use different colors to signal certain sounds of the printed word. Color coding is generally proposed as a means of teaching beginning reading:
6) Non-Roman Alphabets: Those alphabets proposed to replace the present Roman alphabet by creating new letters or characters. The new characters may be entirely arbitrary with little, if any, relationship of one character to another. They may be inverted, mutilated, or Roman letters with appendages.
Limitations of this Study.It is impossible to present information on all or most of the proposals for spelling reform because their number is legion and because of the nature of promoting most of these proposals.
Spelling Reform Proposals using Augmented Alphabets.Most observers of English spelling' point out the fact that the English alphabet contains only 26 letters, 3 of which are redundant (c, q, x) for the forty or so sounds of the language. As a consequence, one letter must stand for more than one sound. As if this situation were not bad enough, one finds that approximately 1/6 of all English words contain unnecessary silent letters and that over the years, alphabet or spelling change has not kept pace with sound change. English is thus left with a system of orthography in which no one can tell with certainty how a word is pronounced if he only sees it written but never hears it pronounced; and, inversely, cannot tell with certainty, how a word is spelled if he only hears it pronounced but never sees it written.
Throughout the history of the language, many individuals, scholars, and laymen have advocated the need for new letters to supplement the present system so that one symbol can stand for one sound only and each sound be represented by one symbol only.
Although there is some disagreement regarding the exact number of sounds for English, it is generally conceded that an alphabet of approximately 40 letters would be necessary to arrive at the desired effect of one sound for one symbol. In order to achieve this, approximately 17 new symbols would be necessary.
When it comes to the question of supplementing deficiencies of the present alphabet, this can be accomplished in several ways: according to P.A.D. McCarthy:
"... by simply taking over existing letters from other alphabets (e.g. Greek, Cyrillic), with such typographical modifications as may be demanded by the need to harmonize with Roman fonts; by altering Roman letters sufficiently to constitute additional independent shapes; by designing new letters to go with the Roman (these might of course have resemblances to existing letters, and so come optionally under the preceding head); and by combinations of the foregoing."The reputed advantages of augmented alphabets over other systems of spelling change are as follows:
1) An augmented alphabet would present a one to one relationship between sound and symbol without the addition of unnecessary diacritics or unnecessary letters, as in the case of phonemic alphabets based on digraphic spellings.
2) An augmented alphabet would retain most or all of the symbols presently used in the traditional alphabet, thus establishing a pattern of familiarity, and understanding for those who already know the present spelling.
3) An augmented alphabet would allow for more consistent spelling of sounds and thus be more helpful for those learning to read and write the language.
4) An augmented alphabet is based on the logical principle of retaining what is consistent and usable and adding to it rather than starting over with a totally unfamiliar non-Roman alphabet as other reformers have proposed.
5) Augmented alphabets, without sacrificing essential characteristics, generally use less characters in writing which afford greater saving of time and cost in the reproduction of material.
Problems in the use of Augmented Alphabets.A one sound, one symbol phonetic notation by supplementing the present Roman alphabet with new symbols has several major drawbacks that hinder its acceptance as a viable alternative.
The first objection has to do with the uncertainty regarding the exact number of phonemes contained in English and the number of symbols needed to express these phonemes.
(In the alphabets presented in this thesis, there is little agreement as to the number of symbols needed. Benjamin Franklin eliminated six of the present symbols and added six new ones so his system contains the same number of symbols as the present alphabet. William Thornton used 30 symbols, the Initial Teaching Alphabet has 45 symbols, the International Phonetic Assoc. Alphabet contains over 48 symbols, and Edwin Leigh found that 70 symbols were needed to express his spelling system because he wanted to retain all present spellings, but superimposed on them was a phonetic system in bolder type.
Ed. comments:This is true of all phonetic alphabets, not just augmented alphabets. Franklin came up with a lot fewer sounds because he could not hear the subtle differences in some pairs of sounds. Pitman has 3 duplicates in order to make easier the transition to T.O. The I.P.A. splits some sounds into too small a unit to be useful, such as the dark and light 'l', which have no difference in meaning. Edwin Leigh's system had hairline type for silent letters, with the sounds superimposed by bolder type. The greatest advantage of Leigh's system is that it preserved the conventional spellings, yet gave a pronunciation guide to all words. In this respect, it was superior to all other systems before or since, and had the easiest transition to conventional spelling of any system ever proposed. It's a pity it isn't still in use.
You say there isn't agreement on the number of speech sounds. But there is agreement among the best qualified phoneticians, such as Pitman, Dewey, MacCarthy, Ives, Rondthaler, Tune and others. You cannot expect agreement with uninformed alfabeteers.)
Sir James Pitman expresses the opinion that between 35 and 41 different characters would be adequate to express all the basic consonant and vowel sounds without employing combinations of letters or digraphs. Obviously, an alphabet with as few as 35 symbols would be inadequate, and an alphabet of over 50 characters, while producing more accurate pronunciation, would run beyond the need for sounds that distinguish meaning. Altho many spelling reform proposals fit this 35 to 50 symbol requirement,, there is certainly a wide range of disagreement on just what symbols ought to be present in the new alphabet and what symbols should be excluded. Until there is some agreement, at least on the minimum number of symbols, proponents of augmented alphabets should not be surprised that their ideas are met with suspicion or outright rejection.
A second obstacle to the acceptance of augmented alphabets is the great difficulty of devising new letter shapes that harmonize with present shapes in upper and lower case, and in all fonts of type, as well as in handwriting. According to P.A.D. MacCarthy, "the new letters should remain sufficiently simple in their basic shape so as not to add much to the number of pen movements required to form them by hand." He also added that they should have good lateral extension.
A third objection to augmented alphabets lies in the acceptance of the number of new characters needed to make the alphabet completely phonetic. If only a few characters were needed, they would not cause too much relearning for the average reader, could be quickly assimilated into the present system and require minimal changes in our general overall system. Not two or three new symbols for English are needed, but more like 17 new ones are needed, or approximately 40% of the new alphabet. One has to want the change badly to accept these kinds of changes. As P.A.D. MacCarthy expressed it:
"To produce nearly a score (or more) of new shapes such as would commend themselves to expert and public alike, sufficiently powerful to secure wide approval and eventual official adoption - this has so far defeated all those calligraphers and type designers, whether amateur or professional, who have from time to time made an attempt."Another difficulty with a new phonemic alphabet for English would be to find a phonemic pattern acceptable to the various dialectal groups comprising the English speaking world. The system should be acceptable to the total English speaking world, not just mid-Western Americans, Bostonians or Welchmen. Since pronunciations differ, not only between English speaking countries, but within the countries themselves, the task of picking the correct symbols to represent certain sounds becomes a difficult one. Some words such as dance, because, father, been, going, etc., could be represented by different spellings according to the various dialectal and/or ideolectical differences among groups or individuals. Monson presents additional examples of this difficulty:
Ed. comment:Not true. It's merely his opinion)
"Not all dialects of English have the same number of phonemes: In the words pants and dance, some people have different vowels, some do not; and the phoneme occurring in the dance of the first group does not exist as a separate phoneme in the speech of the second group. In some regions, starry, merry and Mary have three distinct vowels; in others, two, and in still others, the words are homonyms. A similar problem would occur in transcribing dog, fog, and frog. Thus a standard phonemic orthography acceptable to all different dialects of English would be difficult to devise."
(But the most important obstacle is the need to change all typewriters, printers' fonts, remote teletype machines, and dictionaries; library indexing systems, and any system that uses the 26 letter Roman alphabet. Where are you going to insert these 17 new symbols into the Roman alphabet? Think of the disruption this will cause!
Ed. comment:Not difficult to devise. It only requires that all 41 or 42 sounds be identified and symbolized. The difference comes with books printed in America (past) and in England (paast). But we already have printing differences, viz: colour, centre, petrol, lift, which in America are: color, center, gasoline, elevator; These differences are such a minor difficulty as to not be worth considering. Merely a 'red herring' intended to obscure the more important issues.)
The final obstacle to acceptance of a new phonemic augmented alphabet lies in the degree of change and difficulties in getting people to switch to the new system. Aside from the fact that new printing fonts and new typewriters would be needed, with all the difficulty, confusion and expense this would involve, is the tremendous problem of educating the general public to the need for such changes. The educated and illiterates, the old and young, would need a large degree of re-education or instruction, and practice. Asking everyone to change deeply ingrained habits developed over many years is considered a difficult, if not impossible task by spelling reformers and spelling reform associations. Dewey concluded: "Because of the, enormous practical difficulties of making new characters everywhere available, such a notation is unlikely to achieve adoption for general use for several generations to come."
Problems in the use of Diacritical Markings.At first glance, supplementing the present alphabet by use of various kinds of diacritical marks would seem to be a good answer to the problems of an inconsistent orthography. Many of the advantages claimed for using diacritical marks, however, break down upon closer examination.
It is only a half truth, for example, to say that diacritical marks remove the necessity for new letters to obtain a more exact sound-symbol relationship. One might well ask: is a bar, a dash, or some other mark over the a, to indicate length, a new letter or isn't it? Is it already in the printer's fonts? Some would agree, with good reason, that it is more difficult to remember to put a bar over the vowel letters than it would be to learn a completely new symbol that sound. It is a gratuitous assumption to suppose that it would be easier to learn a new marking system than to learn totally new symbols.
It is true that diacritical marks can save printing space, but it is also true that most typewriters and printing shops are not equipped to add these marks in the normal process of reproduction. Going back to add the necessary diacritical marks can become a nuisance in both typing and handwriting. The relatively small saving in printed space is more than offset by the loss of time required to go back and add diacritical marks and the resultant loss of continuity in the writing and thought process.
It is often difficult to teach the child to dot his i's and cross his t's. Imagine how much more difficult it would be to teach the child to go back and add three or four or more additional marks. There is a good chance that the kind of diacritical marking system that is required to make our alphabet more phonemic would cause as many, if not more, spelling mistakes than currently exist with the present alphabet.
Provided they are not too complicated, diacritical markings can be very helpful to lead the beginning reader to a more exact pronunciation of an unfamiliar word or help him to sound out the word. To this extent, diacritical marks seem to have a useful place. But as a system of permanent spelling reform, it lacks validity and to that extent is hardly acceptable as a means of bringing about a more consistent spelling system.
Spelling Reform Proposals using Digraphs.An ideal spelling system would have one symbol for each phoneme, but English has only 26 letters and over 40 phonemes. Unless diacritical marks are used or new letters are added to the alphabet, it is impossible to get this optimal one-to-one relationship for English. The most common way to make up for this deficiency is to use digraphs - a combination of two letters to stand for one sound.
The technique employed by most spelling reformers who use digraphs to make up for the deficiencies of the alphabet is to establish a principle of consistency in their use of digraphs. This may be done in one of three ways. The most common method is to attempt to discover the common spelling digraphs used to represent a particular sound and then select one of these digraphs to represent consistently that sound. This method considers major spelling patterns and does not exclude alternative spellings of the same sound. The second method is less selective or systematic.
It consists of establishing digraphic spelling based in part on current spelling patterns and in part on other considerations. The third method is arbitrary and based primarily on the subjective desires or fantasies of its creators.
With almost all systems of digraphic spelling, the authors apply rules for eliminating silent letters. Again, the degree of change varies with each proposal depending on the needs and purposes of the particular system.
The general advantages of digraphic spelling over other systems of spelling change may be summarized as follows:
1) No new letters or diacritical marks are necessary. This makes it possible to use present methods of printing, typing and reproduction of printed material without addition al expense or inconvenience,
2) Much of the current spelling remains unchanged. This makes for greater ease of learning the new system for those who are already familiar with traditional spelling; and, makes the transition from the new to traditional for those who are not familiar with traditional spelling less confusing.
3) Most digraphs used in these proposals are currently in use or are familiar to the literate public. This means they do not clash with present familiar spellings and can be easily remembered and retained.
4) Digraphic spelling produces considerable continuity with the past and with other languages using the Roman alphabet.
5) Digraphic spelling initially produces less psychological and technological disturbance. For this reason alone it has a better chance of being accepted by the general public:

Director M.Night Shyamalan in Sight to Direct HBP?HBP Film
Coming Soon has posted a new interview with film director M. Night Shyamalan, where he comments on whether he has been approached to direct either Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, or the yet as un-named film version of Book Seven. He says he was asked about directing Sorcerer's Stone, and still is uncertain if he would undertake such a big project as directing a Harry Potter film. Quotage:
"You know, that Harry Potter dance has gone on a long time," he told us. "The problem is that it is a living breathing thing now, all by itself. When it comes over to my camp, it needs to be kind of handed over, adoption papers and everything. That's a tricky move.
"I haven't met with J.K. [Rowling]," he continued. "The first one was offered to me, but that conflicted with 'Unbreakable,' which was unfortunate. I would definitely, but I think probably before that I would adapt a book. I've gotten close a few times to adapting books."
M.Night Shyamalan is best known for directing such hit films as The Sixth Sense, Signs, and The Village. His latest film Lady in the Water is due to be released July 21.

Haverford's Annual Fund: Alumni Participation
Haverford encourages all alumni, parents and friends of the College to give to the Annual Fund. For alumni, there is also a particular emphasis on participation. No matter the size of one's gift, the participation of each and every alumnus/a has an impact on the College. Why?
- Foundations and other funders consider participation a strong indicator of alumni satisfaction, which influences their grant-making decisions.
- It is also a sign of alumni satisfaction for U.S. News & World Report. The rate is a factor in how they calculate rankings.
- Haverford's alumni body is smaller than many schools (1/3 smaller than Swarthmore and half the size of Williams), so we need more people to give in order to meet the College's financial needs.

Team USA is transparent enough that everyone seems to know their weaknesses and how to exploit them; the blueprint is universally known, but no one is able to implement the game plan. The enormous quantity of talent on Team USA means that playing even a perfect game does not translate to a win.
"We will try not have too many possessions, not miss many shots and control the boards," said Juan Carlos Navarro. Doing it all at the same time is difficult, but we will try. I don't know if we'll reach 100 points … but the points are not important. [What's important is] to play good defense."
What else must be done:
• Limit turnovers. It is evident that the U.S. defensive pressure up top results in many steals that finish with easy baskets on the other end. Attacking with the ball and getting off to a quick start offensively is key to the USA game. And against Team USA, passes to the wing or inside expose the offensive to further losses amidst the quick hands and speed of the American defenders.

Buy a barley wine in a bomber you can't go wrong. It poured a crystal clear ruby red color with no head and hardly any carbonation. The sweet grainy cereal like aroma seemed odd at first but then it grew on me. A sharp malty taste fades quickly and balanced out with a citrus flavor that lingers. Feels kind of thin for a barley wine then the 11% sneeks up on you. Would have loved to try this on draft.

Had on tap at the brewery--served into a pint glass
Appearance: copper in color, 1/4 inch head, hazy, medium carbonation
Smell: toasted malt and cherries
Taste:toasted malt, cherries, dark fruit, and dry earthy hops
Mouthfeel: medium-heavy bodied, medium carbonation, sweet with slight bitterness
Overall: An above average fruity barleywine that balances malt and hops fairly well. Above average but not great for the style. I would think about possibly getting this again.

Pours a rich chocolate with small head, but great lacing. Smell is yeasty, floral with a malt presence. Taste is malty, but with a distinct floral presence...alcohol surprisingly understated. Mouthfeel is rich almost chewy...smooth on the palate. One of the most drinkable barleywines I have had...no harshness or strong alcohol presence despite being 11 abv.

Poured a deep copper hue with a one and a half finger creamy white head. There was very good retention and lacing.
The smell featured a solid caramel malt and a potent earthy hop.
The taste was very well balanced with a light caramel and a good earthy hop. No alcohol warmth detected.
The mouthfeel was of average fullness.
Overall a delicious and very drinkable barleywine. No alcohol detected whatsoever.

An awesome barleywine brew...
Pours deep brown with a little reddish tinge. A little bit of head, but very good creamy lacing. Smells of medium hops and malts, nsome sweet fruits, and only a hint of alcohol. Tastes follows with a moderately hoppy brew with creamy malts, some fruity notes as well. Some alcohol flavor ekes out, but you really only get the tip of iceberg. And wow, 11% alcohol?! If I'm ever out that way again, I'd get this. Highly recommended for getting a bit sloshed :).

On tap into a pint glass at Barrington Brewery.
Honestly, when I first saw it arrive in a pint glass, I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to finish it. It's true that I haven't had many barleywines, but the few that I have had have presented a struggle to get all the way through a 12-oz bottle, let alone a-16 oz glass.
So I eyed it skeptically. It sat there all tawny and hazy, looking very much like the other barleywines I've had. Barely translucent, one finger of off-white head. Not much in the way of carbonation.
A preliminary olfactory inspection didn't tell me too much more. Although in retrospect, the 11% ABV was not evident at all. What I did notice was a faint aroma of oranges, and a faint nutty quality, perhaps pecans.
The moment of truth: WOW! I had read that the alcohol was masked rather well, but I didn't appreciate the full extent of this until I tried it firsthand. Let me put it this way: Yule Fuel conceals its 11 points of alcohol even more deceptively than Duvel hides its 9.5. There was not even the faintest hint of alcohol anywhere in that beer. What it did have, though, was malty sweetness in the form of caramel, maple syrup, and maybe honey. I realize that I am making it sound cloying, but this was not the case. It was definitely on the malty side, but it was well-balanced, especially by a late-palate smokiness, and a dry leathery finish. It was not as complex as it could be, but what it did, it did really well.
The mouthfeel was slick and heavy. There was some carbonation, but not much. It was full of thick, syrupy goodness.
The drinkability is off the charts. Occasionally, I have found myself wishing that there was a rating higher than "5." this is one of those times. An exceptional barleywine would have a "5," no question. But this one in particular has gone so far beyond would should (our could) realistically be expected of this style that it is in a league of its own. For example, I never would have believe that a barelywine could be sessionable, but this one is. I have a few reasons not to get that second (and possibly third) pint that I wanted: namely, it's dark, snowing, and I'm from out-of-town and still had to drive back to the hotel. But if I were to live here, that would quickly become a staple for the winter months.

I had an experience once with the Yule Fuel that basically made me realize how complex and enjoyable this beer is. The beer in appearance and smell is solid but not great. The mouthfeel does not fail to excite the drinker but does not overwhelm him with joy either. However, this is a beer that is very drinkable. Four of us got amazingly drunk one night and didn't even realize that Mr. Alcohol had snuck up on us. It is oh so smotth. That's not something most 11% ABV beers can claim.

December 2010-2011 edition. Best by date purposely left unotched. Purchased for $5 at the brewery and stored in a refrigerator.
Appearance - Deep ruby red body with respectable light khaki head. Excellent clarity. Recedes to a thin cap with a thicker soapy ring around the edge. Sparse wisps of lace. Looks nice.
Smell - Mouth-watering malt sweetness. Juicy strawberries, sweet caramel, and subtle earthy dark fruits. As the beer warms up to room temperature from cellar temps there is a subtle hint of alcohol. Would like more from the dark fruit and caramel here.
Taste - Dark fruits and caramel make up this brew's body. Light notes of fig and dates offer up a subtle earthy sweetness. Juicy strawberry esters balance out the thicker and more rich malt flavors. Finishes with light fruit flavors and a subtle bitterness. Fruitiness lingers. Does this really have alcohol in it? ABV has been expertly hidden with only the most subtle tingle in the back of the throat showing its face as the beer warms. The ABV is definitely felt as I near the end of the bottle.
Mouthfeel - Full-bodied and smooth. Light and wonderfully soft carbonation adds perfect balance to the feel. Not thick or syrupy in the slightest.
Drinkability - This drinks like a beer around 6% alcohol. Balanced, malty, and juicy. I'm surprised at how well the alcohol is hidden. The dark fruits and fruity esters presenting this beer are great. Very drinkable. The alcohol just feels like its missing. It's there, but very very subtle. I've got two more bottles of this and will see how they hold up until next winter.

Let it first be said that I am used to having this on tap poured by Bethany, but this 2009 brew that was bottled in a 22 ounce and has been aged for a year.
The appearance is a dark mahogany color with slight head retention that settles quickly with no lacing.
The aroma is described simply as sweet and malty.
The taste is complex, where it is sweet, malty and hoppy all at the same time with not one of those characteristics being more powerful than the other.
The drinkability of this barleywine depends on the person. In my opinion this barleywine is the best I have had, but takes a toll on the drinker as the sunday goes on with only a two beer limit ;-)

This was an excellent beer. I've had it on several years and there is a good amount of variability in terms of taste and gravity. That said, whereas 2009 was a very weak year for this beer, the 2010 version was exceptional. I'm holding on to a few to see how well they age. Overall a good beer, and well worth the drive to great Barrington to sample.

A hazy, dark copper brown color with a big creamy tan head and serious lacing. The aroma is a very likeable raspberry cranberry medley with toffee malt and fruit nougat. Very pleasant yet not over the top at all. The first taste brings a malty blend of bubblegum cherry and root beer with an herbal hop edge. The combination is really unique as holiday brews go but it totally works and easily makes my Christmas list. This stuff is medium-plus bodied with modest carbonation and an easy drinker.

As far as the beer goes, it is not marked for alcohol content at all and I was very surprised to learn that it is 11% ABV. It poured smoothly with almost no head and is dark brows/slightly reddish in color. It smells of berries and hops, and tastes less of berries than hops. Overall, it tastes like a strong pale ale and similar to Sierra Nevada's Celebration Ale (2002).
