Suite was clean and updated/modern I would stay here again
Mattress needs to be turned or replaced.
As soon as you get there the hotel staff was great. Rooms where clean and very comfortable.
Parking was a bit harsh.
location view of strip quality of accommodation
Excellent location nice and comfortable furniture.
Polo Towers was accommodating on so many levels. Their customer service was impeccable and they were great with checking to see how out stay was.
near to the strip but not in it which is actually good as it away from the noise, clean and comfortable now there is complimentary WIFI
the room service DO NOT vacuum the room daily
The setting of the Units is fantastic better than what any hotel offers for even a remotely close price. Really nice home setting. Fantastic The store below the building is perfect helps a lot with quick needs and one does not to have to go too far to obtain what you forgot to take with you. Amenities available at in is great.
Noise at Night from AC unit or Bathroom Unit disturbing sleep. Parking is terrible not enough space to park. The Valet helps, but took a long time to get vehicle due to few people available to serve on the Valet.
The quiet atmosphere of the Polo Towers was just what we needed after venturing through the sea of people on the Las Vegas Strip. Our king suite was clean, nicely decorated, spacious and the kitchen well-equipped. The rooftop pool and deck was quite comfortable, not crowded or noisy. It definitely met our needs and expectations.
The entrance is set back from the Strip and requires a short walk up an alley-like drive to reach it. It is well-traveled enough to be safe, but is not pretty.
I enjoyed the view. The kitchen was a good touch.
Did not like the resort Fees and extra $100 deposit wish it had real beds in the rooms instead of sofa beds.
Don't like time share sales Air conditioner was so loud, can not get into sleep at all. Parking was ridiculous Charge resort fee even you don't use them
Location, staff and quiet
There was nothing I really didn't like
The location was in the middle of everything and the staff was amazing
I didn't like that the fridge wasn't working properly so all of our food went bad
Very good location
Bed not very confortable
Value for money.
The bed was a little bit bad.
Nice large size rooms
Long check in line when we arrived
Location was very good. Cost/benefit is good. Can an option if you are looking for silent family place. As there is no casino, restaurants and shows.
In the peak time (independance day) was lack of parking places. Still blocked $100 are not back. But I suppose it is the same in all Vegas. Deposits are ususal stuff in here.
Awsome facility, lacks easy strip accessibility the walk though abandoned food court and though the parking lot is a job and terrible unsafe
Walk to the strip
Wonderful experience!
The underground parking.
Comfort and great experience
it's expensive
The location is perfect, and rooms are very nice and clean.
Location good. Problems with toilet not working for two days. Maintenance did respond and work on it and then broke again. Suite setup comfortable. Staff friendly .

great location, centre of strip, without the inconvience of walking thru casino to get to room.

Earth has warmed by about 1°F over the past 100 years. But why? And how? Well, scientists are not exactly sure. The Earth could be getting warmer on its own, but many of the world's leading climate scientists think that things people do are helping to make the Earth warmer.
The Greenhouse Effect: Scientists are sure about the greenhouse effect. They know that greenhouse gases make the Earth warmer by trapping energy in the atmosphere.
Climate Change: Climate is the long-term average of a region's weather events lumped together. For example, it's possible that a winter day in Buffalo, New York, could be sunny and mild, but the average weather - the climate - tells us that Buffalo's winters will mainly be cold and include snow and rain. Climate change represents a change in these long-term weather patterns. They can become warmer or colder. Annual amounts of rainfall or snowfall can increase or decrease.
Global Warming: Global warming refers to an average increase in the Earth's temperature, which in turn causes changes in climate. A warmer Earth may lead to changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. When scientists talk about the issue of climate change, their concern is about global warming caused by human activities.

Summer Salon Series 2012: The Quilt Conversation with Andrew Printer
Sorry, you need to install flash to see this content.
Artist Andrew Printer, with Ann Olsen, has organized two groups of quilters who worked at the Museum to construct two quilts recalling the 1980's. Inspired by major artworks that emerged during the AIDS crisis one group of quilters consisted of those who contributed to the original NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt in Washington, D.C. The second group historicized other themes of that decade, ranging from Paul Simon's Graceland to the fall of the Berlin wall.
The Quilt Conversation concludes a summer-long quilting project focused on the 1980's with a multi-layered finale. Reflecting the loose, messy nature of history-making this 30 minute wrap-up includes a conversation between the Alexander Jarman, Manager of Public Programs, and artist Andrew Printer about the project's inspiration and process. At the same time, the decade of Ronald Reagan, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the emergence of AIDS will be historicized by a cast of contemporary dancers and improvisational actors as it was filtered through the summer's quilt making participants.

Recently, the selection committee for the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) accepted Professor Robert K. Savage's proposal for a concurrent session at the 2013 Conference on Clinical Legal Education in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Savage, the Director of the Investor Advocacy Clinic at Florida International University College of Law, will be collaborating on this project with the director of the University of Miami's Investor Rights Clinic, Teresa J. Verges.
Their proposal was selected from what was, according to the selection committee, "an unprecedented number of proposals."
"Our selection is exciting for various reasons, including that it is another chance to highlight the FIU College of Law at a national conference, as well as because it highlights the great work our students are doing in the Investor Advocacy Clinic. Additionally, I have invited Univ. of Miami's law clinics to participate in this presentation, and that collaborative effort is another reason why we were selected to present," said Savage.

Worcestershire County Council said its gritting fleet will be preparing roads for any potential frost from 7pm.
Met Office forecasters warned a frost may develop in the early hours, with the potential for icy roads where surfaces are damp, and drivers have been warned to take appropriate precautions.
Drivers are also being reminded to take extra care through any standing flood water and be aware of black ice.

Paul Walker, the Fast & Furious star who died in a fiery car crash in L.A. Saturday, was rumored to be in a relationship with Genesis Rodriguez, according to dating site WhosDatedWho.com.
Rodriguez, his costar in the upcoming Hurricane Katrina drama Hours, out Dec. 13, was born in Miami and is the daughter of famed Venezuelan singer El Puma. Walker and Genesis play husband and wife in the movie. But UK's Daily Mail reports that the 40-year-old actor was in a long-term relationship with college student Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell, 23. They apparently started dating when she was just 16. Her uncle told the publication that they had all just spent Thanksgiving together.
Walker's autopsy has been delayed until identification is made using dental records, a rep from the Los Angeles County coroner's office told TMZ.
Funeral plans are yet to be revealed, but the star's family gathered on Sunday to remember him.
"I'm just glad that every time I saw him, I told him I loved him," his father, Paul Walker Sr., told LA's CBS2. "And he would say the same thing to me."
TMZ reports that investigators are looking into a tip that Walker and the Porsche's driver, his financial partner and sometime race car driver Roger Rodas, were involved in some kind of drag race at the time of the crash.
What a doll
One-of-a-kind Lady Gaga has been replicated. The pop star unveiled life-size dolls in her likeness, dressed in her flamboyant costumes, at a Tokyo event Sunday. A person leaning against the silicon doll's chest can hear Lady Gaga music and messages. At the news conference, the 27-year-old singer made her grand entrance wearing a red plaid jumpsuit and wrapped in coils of the same fabric. The Gagadoll, inspired by her Artpop album, are prototypes not yet available for sale.
Modern family
Maria Bello is happy and in love with her best friend, she wrote in a column for The New York Times. Bello's girlfriend is like a "godmother" to her 12-year-old son Jack (with producer Dan McDermott), the Coyote Ugly star wrote. It wasn't love at first sight with new-media executive Clare Munn. "She was one of the most beautiful, charming, brilliant and funny people I had ever met, but it didn't occur to me, until that soul-searching moment in my garden, that we could perhaps choose to love each other romantically."
Web fun
Roseanne Barr learned her lesson: Don't drink and tweet. On Friday night, the comedian went on a rant threatening to quit showbiz. "I feel as if I've been insulted/assaulted for over a year. Actually, for many years — from my first reality show to my second and two failed development details. Don't call me — I won't call you. I'm gone." Hours later, in a more sober state, Barr clarified saying she had been under the influence of alcohol.

If your child is dehydrated, it means that he doesn't have as much fluid in his body as he needs. Children are more prone to dehydration than adults, and it can happen if your child takes in less fluid than he loses through vomiting, diarrhea, fever, or sweating. Dehydration can be mild and easily corrected, moderate, or severe and life threatening.
Any of these signs could indicate that your child is dehydrated or is becoming dehydrated:
Signs that your preschooler may be seriously dehydrated:
Children can quickly become dangerously dehydrated, so if you think your child shows signs of serious dehydration, take him to the emergency room immediately. He may need to receive liquids through an intravenous (IV) tube until he's rehydrated.
If you're concerned but don't think your child is seriously dehydrated, give his doctor a call for advice. She may want to see your child to make sure he's okay. If she decides that he's mildly dehydrated, she'll probably just instruct you to give him plenty of water and other liquids that he normally drinks. But it's also possible that she'll suggest a special liquid to replenish the water and salts (electrolytes) that his body has lost.
Electrolyte liquids are available in most pharmacies. Pedialyte, Infalyte, and ReVital are some of the name-brand products. (Ask your pharmacist about generic brands, too.) Don't substitute sports drinks such as Gatorade. Although they do contain electrolytes, sports drinks have a higher concentration of sugar than the electrolyte liquids that are specifically made to help rehydrate children.
Not all kids appreciate the taste of electrolyte liquids, so if your child refuses to drink them, be sure to ask your doctor about alternatives. Increase the amounts of the liquids he normally drinks as well.

Southend United's Barry Corr confirms return to full fitness with goal in win against Wycombe Wanderers
Updated 4:32pm Monday 25th February 2013 in Blues By Chris Phillips
SOUTHEND United striker Barry Corr confirmed his return to form by bagging his 10th goal of the season in Saturday's 2-1 win at Wycombe Wanderers.
Corr's previous visit to Adams Park, in May 2011, was the first of 67 games he missed during 18 months out with a serious knee injury.
But he has now netted 10 goals in 14 starts this term and is starting to feel close to his best.
"It's nice to come back to Wycombe, the first game I missed, and score in a good win for the team," said Corr.
"When I first started playing again this season my knee still wasn't feeling great if I'm being honest.
"I didn't have much strength in it when I was trying to jump and things like that.
"However, it's much better now and I would like to think my last few performances have shown that.
"I think next season will probably be when I'm truly back to my best but I'm definitely getting closer.
"I'm happy to have got to 10 goals now and will keep on working hard to try and get a few more."
Corr's goal, which came when he headed home Ryan Cresswell's knock down from Kevan Hurst's left wing corner at the start of the second half , cancelled out Dean Morgan's early opener.
And the Irishman was thrilled by the fighting spirit shown by Paul Sturrock's side as they came back to secure a crucial victory.
"It's a massive win for us and I thought we showed really good character to get it," said Corr.
"In the first half we probably had a hangover, maybe even literally, from the game with Leyton Orient in the week.
"But to be able to come back from that, go behind here and then win the game is very good indeed."
Blues were able to get the win thanks to a late goal from Corr's strike partner Britt Assombalonga.
And Corr was thrilled to see the youngster back among the goals.
"Britt was quality out there and he definitely deserved the goal," said Corr.
"I'm really pleased for him and I know what this will do for his confidence so hopefully he can get a few more now and we can get more good results like this."

Tom Brady had quite a bit to say about a poll while speaking to reporters Thursday, but he couldn't figure out exactly why people around the country don't like him.
A definite fan favorite in New England, but it turns out, across the country, Brady is actually the most hated QB in the league.
When asked about the poll, Brady seemed more stumped than upset.
"What kind of life do I have off the field that everyone knows so well," said Tom Brady, least liked QB in the NFL.
"You're married to a supermodel," reporters said.
"Oh, that! That's the reason why I'm not liked. I live a great life, I do," Brady said.
Fans think they have the answer.
"They're just jealous and that's why they hate him," one fan said.
Love him or hate him, Brady says he is happy doing what he's doing.
"You're right, there's nothing I'd rather do than play football for the New England Patriots and yes, I have a great family, so thank you," said Brady.
To be fair, the same poll also had Brady tied for second as the most liked quarterback. However, number one, by a wide margin was Brady's opponent Sunday, Peyton Manning.

- Simms is better than I remeberedOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/20/2014We had a great anniversary dinner at Simms. We used to go 20 years ago all the time. I was hoping it would be as good. It was so much better than I remebered. The resturant is beautiful and the view of the city is amazing. The food is very very good. We couldn't have asked for a better night--the double rainbow and lightning storm were just about the perfect backdrop to the amazing view. I would definately recommend this resturant to anyone who wants a wonderful evening with great food. (my 16 year old was even impressed--miracle). Our waiter was exceptional as well. We will back soon.Special Features:
- Great view, priceyOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/20/2014Simms does indeed have one of the best views of Denver. They have a wider variety of menu items other than beef which is a nice change from the usual steakhouse fare. But their prices for steaks are very high ($30-40), and these don't even include any side orders/vegetables. Service was adequate, but did not match the prices.Special Features:
- Great experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/17/2014Very good service very good food . will definately returnSpecial Features:
- Less then satisfyingHungryRonDined on 8/15/2014I felt everything was way overpriced compared to the quality. Staff forget our bread completely. Did not know the cocktail I ordered on the first try. I ordered crab - they brought drawn butter and never lit the candle under it. Seated a party next to us and tables were way too close. We finally moved out own table when the staff kept tripping over my chair to get to them. All this for a mere $325 (before tip) for a party of 4.Special Features:
- Delicious Food, Amazing LocationMaximillian00VIPDined on 8/14/2014I love OpenTable because we find so many great restaurants that we never would otherwise. The food here was amazing. This prices are on the higher end so that should be expected, but Simms certainly didn't disappoint. The NY strip and prime rib we had were both very flavorful and perfectly cooked. We also enjoyed the shrimp cocktail although they were not as large as I would expect in a restaurant such as this. The views of downtown Denver are amazing. We dined just before sunset and got to watch the lights in the city all come on as the night progressed. I would definitely dine here again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinnerjb12Dined on 8/10/2014The food was excellent, the view great, and the service good. The steak and prime rib melted in your mouth and the shrimp tempura appetizer was excellent. The asparagus, being large, was not as tasty as smaller stalks tend to be.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I've been coming here since 1977RNick1977Dined on 8/9/2014I've been coming here for over three decades, my brother showed me this glorous spot back in 77 and I have visited it ever since. I lived in Vail from 76 - 90 and would always stop in with several diferent women to whom I dated and would pick up at (Stapelton) and stop in for a romantic meal before the long drive to Vail. Back then, it was more the increadable view of the city and surrounding Burbs. 20 years +/- I started bringing my kids (going to school...Collage) to share the experience. I can say after 24 years in Chicago, You have a warm, classy place that my kids, now in there 30's like to bring me to to reminess and my new wife from East coast loves it.Special Features:

- OutstandingOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 8/2/2014We were a group of 4 and everyone was very pleased with Simms Steakhouse. The food, the service, and the view were all outstanding. The location on a hill in Lakewood offered a wonderful view of downtown at dusk as the lights were coming on. Our group ordered prime rib, filet, and rib eye, and each cut was cooked to the precise temperature ordered, and each cut was tender and flavorful. The wine list was varied and was quite reasonably priced. In short, we coulld not have been happier with our decision to dine at Simms.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

I had very high expectations and all of them were met.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great night for a celebrationtexasautobahnDined on 7/21/2014We are out of town parents who were celebrating our 30th anniversary with our sons who attend the school of mines. We have a great night of slowly eating some fantastic food and drinking good wine. Waiter had great pace and was very aware of the menu. His recommendations were great.

- It was great!OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 7/19/2014My husband and I were celebrating an anniversary and the restaurant was beautiful with a great view. The food was also FANTASTIC! I will definitely be coming back!Special Features:
- Good food and a view!max2001Dined on 7/19/2014We were celebrating our anniversary and wanted a good steak dinner, but didn't want to have to go downtown on a Saturday night. Simms Steakhouse was the perfect choice. From the melt in your mouth dinner rolls that come out first, to the pear and Saga Blue cheese salad, to the perfectly cooked steaks, everything was done to perfection. We finished with creme brûlée and that was wonderful as well. This is one of those places that the noise level is not so loud that you can't hear what the person across from you is saying. It is away from the chaos of the downtown Denver area which really makes for a relaxing evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very niceGreatplaceDined on 7/18/2014I was very pleased at the service we received. Our waiter Everett was very polite and attentive. Our food was fantastic and the views are really very nice. This place was not cheap so please be aware before you go in. It is well worth it in our opinion. We will be back againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Poor serviceSuzyq232Dined on 7/14/2014My husband and I went for our anniversary, we never spend this much on a meal and expected great service. The food was delicious and brought to us promptly. The service, however, wa awful. Our waiter did not give us the choice of free water and instead brought us a $6 bottle when we asked for water. They did not have the ingredients for the cocktail I ordered so our waiter brought me a different drink stating it was on the house. When the bill came it turns out he charged me $1 more for my "on the house" cocktail than the drink I originally ordered. As I said this was a special occasion and my husband and I never spend that much money on a meal. For such an expensive meal I expect respectful and quality waitstaff and I got the oppositeSpecial Features:
- Great First VisitOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/12/2014From the friendly master valet to the great dessert Simms was an excellent dining experience. The view is amazing and the food well above your competing steak houses. I will go back!Special Features:

- Awesome Anniversarymugzimom60Dined on 7/5/2014I received a gift certificate for Simms Steakhouse from a client and decided to use it for an anniversary with my boyfriend. We normally don't spend $150 on dinner, even for special occasions, but I have to say that Simms Steakhouse exceeded our expectations and it was worth it. We are talking about going again when we have another special occasion. We loved the appetizer suggested (special tempura shrimp), the soups )lobster bisque and a special clam chowder) and the steaks were phenomenal. I'd highly recommend it for a special occasion.Special Features:
- Denver's finestdinnerguyDined on 7/5/2014The dinner was fantastic and the service was excellent. This was not my first time at this restaurant and I can honestly say that I have always had a great experience. My date had never been there before and she was greatly impressed. I highly recommend this restaurant for romantically involved couples as a special place to enjoy a great dinner.Special Features:
- MariaDined on 7/5/2014Prime rib was fatty and tough, lobster was cold and not sweet as presented. Overpriced and won't return. Don't mind paying the price when the food is good.Special Features:
- Simms steakhouseDiner5Dined on 7/4/2014Terrible. We had need there severeaal other times and enjoyed it. The menu had been changed along with the quality. Ordered augratin potatoes and the had processed cheese on top!! Took forever for our food and to get the bill to pay an a lot for poor service and food. The manager called and offered us a free app. When we come back! Ha,how generous! Not going back
- Always great!dininginvailDined on 7/2/2014We always enjoy our visit to Simms. On your birthday they print your name on your menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pricey for what you gotfoolmeonceDined on 7/2/2014The dinner was good, not great. My wife had the special which again was good but not great. The very high price for her dinner pretty much ruined the rest of the experience. Note no specific recommendation.
- A Bit PriceyOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 6/28/2014Great views. Server was friendly but food service was a slow. Prices were very high for the quality.Special Features:
- HorribleOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 6/28/2014Wait staff slow and unfriendly and not helpful . Our drink spilled they didn't even offer a napkin ... Food was so salty could hardly eat it
- A still fine classic!Sundance03Dined on 6/23/2014I remember when this was Simms Landing, and am happy to report that, despite the years, it is still a great destination. Obviously, the view from up there is extraordinary. Fortunately, the beef and tuna were, too.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Who sent me here?g123Dined on 6/22/2014The buffet: Bacon the consistency of potato chips. Sausage patties bland and greasy. Potatoes dried out. The roast was very tasty and very tough. All I could taste of the overcooked salmon was Greek Oregano, and the ham was cloyingly sweet. The staff: the hostesses condescended to seat us, and the few times we actually saw the waiter, he was equally aloof. It was almost the end of the meal before I got a second cup of coffee. Overall, a dismal dining experience.Special Features:
- JimbDined on 6/20/2014Everything was great! But, I ate too much. Our waitress was outstanding!Special Features:
- Poor serviceAKtoCODined on 6/20/2014The service at Simms was pretty bad. For a steak house I expected more from the staff. You know, fill up empty water glasses, bring some plates with the appetizers, bring steak knives with the actual steak. Maybe have some clean tables or placemats.Special Features:

Urijah Faber took yet another quality submission victory, and this time it was over his friend and former training partner, Scott Jorgensen. The finish marks Faber's 2nd straight submission win by Rear Naked Choke in less than 2 months.
Fox Sports has the highlights of the TUF 17 main event bout, and you can watch it on the clip above. For more details on the bout you can check out a snippet of our Ultimate Fighter Season 17 Finale live blog below:
Round 4 - Jorgensen really coming out hard with some combos and Faber cracks him with a right hand. Faber with a left and then he stuffs a takedown attempt. Uppercut by Jorgensen. Faber with a flurry of strikes again. Jorgensen with a big elbow and a punch in the clinch. Faber with a takedown and he is taking the back and has the body triangle. Faber looking for a rear naked choke and he locks it in and it's over. Very good finish to a competitive fight. Urijah Faber wins by submission (rear naked choke), round 4.

Hello ,i dont take roids i am cutting now loosing the gut/fat and i was just wondering i hear alot of people or BS! about MILK causing bloatness? how does this cause bloatness the SUGAR in the milk or something? Does sodium play a role in causing bloatness,thanx
I wanna be built and lean
no expert, im sure some will respond to this, but IMO, ithink its the sugar especially if youre lactose intolerant.
Eat Tuna!
"Ya don't touch my tuna, I don't kill you."- by Tuna Master
"Part of getting what you want is knowing what you have to give up." - by who knows. ME? Eat Tuna!
My Journal - My FitDay -
Salt will add to water retention if you're not drinking enough water. I've never really heard about Milk causing bloat..thats interesting. Perhaps it is just BS.
"Success is never behind you, it is always, always in front of you."
So if i drink alot of water the bloatness will go away ? i dont have to water about fat being stored cause its just water weight that i can **** away?
I wanna be built and lean
Guzzle water. **** like a racehorse. Watch that retention go. Sad thing with me, I get up TWICE in the middle of the night to go sometimes I drink so much water. But hey, I look mad shredded in the morning.
Hey I have only today cut pasta out of my diet and replaced with more oats and brown rice...
I used to get a bloated feeling but I think it was the pasta...

Backpacker Magazine – December 2007
A 10-step plan for getting your base pack weight under 15 pounds
Going light is a bit like marriage: It's a multifaceted contract that requires your constant commitment. Cheat just a little bit, and your hike–and especially your shoulders–will suffer. But stick to these rules, and you'll quickly find a new comfort level with 15-mile days.
Step 1: Question everything
The only way to make ultralight work is to ditch your standard gear list and your gotta-have-my-coffee-press 'tude. A checklist tricks you into bringing gear you don't need–like a tent in the Sierra–and the attitude distorts the hard choices you'll have to make to trim the last five pounds. For your next trip, start from scratch and select only the gear that's absolutely critical for the conditions you'll face. If in doubt, leave it out.
Step 2: Weigh it all
It'll open your eyes to the surprisingly heavy items–like a filter or first aid kit–and to the little things that individually weigh next to nothing but together add up to something real. Allow yourself a luxury item (recommendation: a comfortable sleeping pad), but otherwise eliminate or substitute with a ruthless eye for fat and duplication. Example: Swap your knife for a razor blade, which is just as effective in most medical situations.
Step 3: Rethink shelter
This is the place to make a major dent: Most serious ULers carry tarps that weigh less than a pound without stakes and guylines. (See page 86 for our testers' favorite.) If you need a three-season tent for bugs or heavy rain, try the superlight Big Agnes Seedhouse SL2 (2 lbs. 14 oz.; $319). Or split the difference with a tent that pitches with just rainfly, poles, and footprint. On the AT and Long Trail, plan to sleep in the shelters that appear almost every 8 miles, unless it's a busy weekend.
Step 4: Change your bedding
Old thinking: Choose a sleeping bag for the lowest temps you might encounter. New thinking: Aim for the middle, and wear more clothes if a cold snap hits. Hard-core fastpackers hit the trail pre-dawn–typically the coldest hour of the night–when they start feeling chilled in their lightweight bags. You can also lose pad weight (and bulk) without sacrificing comfort: Carry a short model and place your empty pack under your feet.
Step 5: Layer down
Another tired maxim: Carry extra clothing. Sure, you want to be cozy and safe, but thick down in July is overkill. Choose layers based on the forecast, and don't double up (no wind jacket and rain shell). For 3-season trips, your shell should weigh under a pound; the lightest are a mere 8 ounces. Pack a midweight long-sleeve top, one synthetic T, lightweight shorts and pants, a light down jacket (10-12 oz.), two pairs of socks and underwear, two hats (for sun and warmth), and (maybe) light gloves and rain pants.
Last year I tested a home made wood burning stove made from a one pound coffee can. Weighs about 2-3 oz's. Far better than sterno fuel. You can find plans on line. Tip Make a nice size Damper to allowin air and add a wire mesh to hold coals in bottom from 1/4 wire netting. Drill a small hole on the side to add a air blower. I used a bike cable housing about 18" long to blow air into the chamber. Small twigs, pine cones and 1/2 inch dry wood worked very well. Only down side is packing the thing. Attach with a small carabiner to outside of pack.
Wood-burning stove and titanium pot gets you a warm meal in the evening with little extra weight. Water treatment along the JMT is not necessary; scoop (exercise some care/judgement) and drink. Depending on the time of year, you WILL want some mosquito protection. Tarp-tents with netting now can be found that weigh less than 24 oz. (they use your walking stick for support) and a hat-ring of netting is only a couple of ounces. Don't forget the biggest place to save weight - your feet! Lightweight running shoes are all you need.

Porto is the second largest city in Portugal and one of the ancient cities in Europe. Also known as Oporto, Porto is rich with culture, history, tourist attractions and the city is an important contributer to Portugal's economy.
Rent a Hummer in Porto to visit all city attractions. Most of the monumental locations and buildings in the city are in walking distance after you park your Hummer around Avenida dos Aliados or the Liberadade square.

By Jan Welsh and Bob Welsh
It was like any summer day in Faribault, Minn., with one exception: Strolling down the street of a quiet neighborhood was a scientist from outer space. Well, that's what she looked like to local residents. Carrying an antenna, a battery pack, and headphones, she was looking around for something.
Curious residents peered out windows, watching her. She finally walked up to a house and knocked on the front door. The homeowner who answered the door talked to her for a while and then handed her a turtle.
The turtle had something funny atop its shell. It looked like a tiny cell phone with an antenna.
As it turned out, the turtle was part of a study by the Department of Natural Resources Nongame Wildlife Program. Several months earlier a researcher had captured the wood turtle near the Straight River, glued a radio transmitter to her shell, and returned her to the river.
A child had found the turtle and taken her home. Meanwhile, the scientist had used a device called a receiver to pick up the radio transmitter's electrical signal and follow it to the child's house.
Standing on the child's doorstep, the scientist explained the wood turtle is a threatened species in Minnesota and that scientists were using radio tracking to learn more about how wood turtles use their river habitat. Scientists hoped to improve the chances of survival for the state's rare wood turtles. The child gave the turtle to the scientist, who returned it to its home on the Straight River.
This process of remotely sending signals over a distance in order to record information is called telemetry. In radio telemetry, transmitters send signals that can be picked up by a special receiver.
Once the transmitter is in place and giving off signals, researchers can track the animal with the receiver (see photo below left). The receiver collects and amplifies the signals so researchers can hear them.
Think of the transmitter and receiver this way: You're riding in a car and want to listen to BE-BOP 99.1 on the radio. By turning on the radio and dialing the setting 99.1, you pick up a signal that delivers music. A radio station sends the signal through a tall antenna, or transmitter.
For wildlife telemetry the animal wears a transmitter. Using a radio receiver and dialing a certain setting, the researcher hears a beep when the animal is within range.
Telemetry is a tool in wildlife and fisheries research because it helps researchers learn how various kinds of animals live and what they need to be healthy. It's useful when a researcher cannot physically follow an animal on its day-to-day routine. For example, a person would find it tricky or impossible to follow a bird in flight or a fish in a lake or river. Telemetry also makes it possible to learn a lot about an animal without being seen by it. This is important because an animal's natural behavior may change if it knows a human is nearby.
DNR fisheries researchers hook up tiny radio transmitters to fish to find out where they travel in spring, summer, fall, and winter. For example, researchers used telemetry to study muskies (muskellunge) on a 70-mile stretch of the Mississippi River from Brainerd to Sartell. Thirteen muskies, ranging in length from 36 to 48 inches, received surgical implants of small radio transmitters. Using the signals, the researchers tracked the muskies' seasonal movements, studied their use of habitat, and discovered where the fish spawn (reproduce).
Telemetry helped wildlife researchers track and study bullsnakes in the grasslands of Crow Hassen Park Reserve, west of Minneapolis. Once plentiful in prairie habitat, bullsnakes disappeared as farms and roads changed the land. When researchers reintroduced bullsnakes to the park's grassland areas, they wanted to see how the snakes adapted. So, in 1991, they implanted six bullsnakes with tiny radio transmitters and followed their slithering movements for 18 months. In 1992 they recaptured the snakes and removed the transmitters.
The researchers discovered that bullsnakes move around more than anyone had previously thought they did. In a week, one snake traveled at least a mile from one spot to another. Depending on the route it crawled, the snake might have covered even more ground.
By going to see the snakes' location, the researchers learned that in the summer the snakes spend 60 percent of their time living underground, often in gopher burrows. When above ground, the snakes stay under a layer of dead grass and other plants.
From the telemetry study, researchers learned that bullsnakes need large blocks of grassland without roads to survive. Crossing roads is deadly to bullsnakes.
At least 640 acres of land (about one square mile) is needed to support enough adult snakes to reproduce enough young to keep the snake population going.
What happens if an animal with a transmitter dies? The transmitter has a switch inside that detects animal movement. When the animal does not move for a long time, the transmitter beeps at a different rate. This tells the listener that the animal might have died. Researchers then find the animal and investigate the cause of death.
One DNR moose study is trying to answer the question of why northwestern Minnesota has fewer moose today than it had years ago. The population has dropped from more than 4,000 moose in the early 1980s to fewer than 300 in 2003.
For the five-year study, researchers captured 152 moose and fitted them with radio collars or radio ear tags. They took samples of blood, hair, and feces (droppings), and later tested the samples in a laboratory. They found major problems: Most moose had parasites (liver flukes, brainworms, winter ticks, lungworms), and most had low amounts of copper (a trace element needed to be healthy).
In the following study years, researchers were able to get close enough to radio-collared female moose to collect droppings for pregnancy tests. They found fewer than half of the females were pregnant most years.
For 13 years the DNR Wildlife Research Unit at Grand Rapids has been using radio telemetry to study white-tailed deer in north-central Minnesota. The goal is to see how much deer use conifers, especially northern white cedar and balsam fir, and determine just how important conifer stands are to winter survival of deer.
Researchers have captured and radio-collared almost 400 female deer, including 43 newborn females. They have also radio-collared 47 male fawns. The electronic tracking enables the researchers to answer questions about migration patterns, the number of deer that survive each year, causes of death, number of newborns, where the deer live, and how they use their habitat.
The researchers are studying how changes in snow depth and outdoor temperatures might lead to changes in deer habits and survival.
The examples in this story use conventional radio telemetry, which is the oldest and most common way to track animals. Researchers can also electronically track animals using Global Positioning System telemetry and satellite telemetry. Here's how each works.
Using a conventional receiver, a researcher can map an animal's location and movements. This conventional telemetry works well for animals that travel less than 6 miles.
The radio transmitter's signal tells a wildlife researcher in which direction the animal is but not how far away it is located. After using the antenna to find the animal's direction, the researcher takes a compass reading and records it on a map. The researcher draws a line on the map from the spot where he or she is standing in the direction of the animal. By quickly moving to another spot and listening, the researcher can draw another directional line toward the animal. The spot where the two lines meet on the map is where the animal is. This technique, known as triangulation, estimates the location of the animal without disturbing it. More readings increase the accuracy.
Collars that use the Global Positioning System (GPS) can show where an animal has been for up to a year. The GPS collar stores the location information gathered from satellites revolving around Earth. After retrieving the collar from the animal, the researcher downloads the data to a computer.
GPS collars cost much more than conventional transmitters do, and the battery wears out faster. However, the GPS collects data 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so the researcher doesn't have to track the animal directly.
This tracking method is especially useful for whales, migratory birds, and other animals that migrate great distances. A transmitter on the animal sends location information to satellites revolving around Earth.
The satellites relay the data to stations on land, where it is translated into a usable form. The researcher can then get the information over the Internet.

Man died of asbestos exposure
1:12pm Wednesday 30th January 2013 in Headlines
A MAN has died from asbestos exposure, more than five decades after working as a building inspector.
John Tipping, 82, from Fordingbridge, worked in Hong Kong during the 1950s and 1960s, overseeing buildings being constructed and demolished.
Southampton Coroner's Court heard he developed mesothelioma last year as a result of "significant exposure" to asbestos during his working life.
He died at Fordingbridge Care Home on November 19, 2012.
Coroner Keith Wiseman recorded a verdict of death due to industrial disease.

The Eagle-Tribune
---- — BRENTWOOD — Danville police Chief Wade Parsons has been charged with negligent storage of firearms relating to the death by gunshot last month of Jacob Carver, 15, in Parsons' home.
Rockingham County Attorney Jim Reams announced this morning that the longtime police chief will be prosecuted for failing to secure his loaded service weapon before he left his home to run errands March 11. Parsons did so knowing there was a juvenile in the house, Reams said.
The charge is a violation of RSA 650-C: I, punishable by a fine of up to $1,000.
"It is my hope that out of this tragedy will come increased awareness by gun owners that they are responsible for the way they store their weapons," Reams said.
State police investigated the Timberlane freshman's death, but were tight lipped throughout.
As the investigation neared its conclusion, New Hampshire State Police Lt. Christopher Vetter said it would be up to Reams's office to determine whether charges would be filed.
The teen was the son of Parsons' girlfriend, and a popular freshman who wrestled and played football.
Vetter said earlier Parsons was not being investigated and that the tragedy had been classified by state police as an "untimely death."
State police have never identified the teenager and would say not how he died, although the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office confirmed it was a shooting.
Parsons was out of work for several weeks after the shooting, but returned in late March.
Selectmen's Chairman Shawn O'Neil said earlier state police told selectmen the town had nothing to be concerned about.
An anonymous letter from the Timberlane community last month was sent to Parsons and media organizations, calling for the release of details in the case. It was signed "Timberlane Regional High School Parents and Friends of Jacob Carver."
Vetter repeatedly has said the boy's death was not accidental, but also was not a homicide. Asked if it were a suicide, Vetter said, "I wouldn't say that."
The letter also asked Parsons to provide gun safety classes at local schools.
Parsons has been Danville's chief since 1995.

Databases are collections of thousands of articles (and often book chapters, book reviews, conference proceedings, dissertations, and other items) organized by subject. The Libraries have hundreds of databases covering every academic discipline. Some are multi-disciplinary, covering a broad range of subjects and including popular and scholarly sources, and others are subject-specific, and include scholarly and specialized articles. A complete list is available at Find Articles.
The following multi-disciplinary databases are good places to start your research:
Books and journals are arranged on our shelves according to the Library of Congress (LC) classification system. Each is assigned a unique call number based on its subject matter and other characteristics. Items on the same subject will often be grouped together.
Each call number consists of several elements. For example, consider:
The FIRST line, TK, is based on the broad subject of the book. Within Class T for technology, TK represents electrical engineering.
The SECOND line, 7881.6, defines the subject matter more finely. When looking for the book, read this as a whole number with a decimal component. In this example, TK7881.6 represents magnetic recording (a subdivision of TK— electrical engineering).
The THIRD line, M29, usually indicates author, but may also represent a further subject subdivision, geographic area, etc. There may also be a fourth line, formatted the same way. When looking for the book, read the numeric component as if it were preceded by a decimal point. In the example above, the numeric part of M29 should be read as ".29" (and the call number TK7881.6 M29 comes before TK7881.6 M4).
The YEAR of publication, such as 1993, may also be present. These file in chronological order and often indicate successive editions of a book. The call number may also have additional elements, such as volume numbers.
In using a call number to locate a book on the shelf, consider each element in turn before moving on to the next segment.
These call numbers are arranged as they should appear on the shelves. In each case, the element shown in boldface distinguishes the number from the preceding one:
Use OskiCat to locate materials related to your topic, including books, government publications, and audio and video recordings, in the libraries of UC Berkeley. OskiCat will show you the location and availability of the items that we own. More OskiCat help.
Use Melvyl to locate materials related to your topic located at other campuses in the UC system, or worldwide. You can use the Request button to request an item from another library, if we don't own it. Detailed Melvyl help.
In every catalog you use, not the name of the physical library, call number, and whether or not the item is checked out, library use only, etc.
Call numbers are usually located on the spine of the book; learn how to read them so you can easily find what you need on the shelves.
Plagiarism is a form of academic dishonesty, violating the Berkeley Campus Code of Student Conduct. The campus issues a guide to understanding plagiarism, which states:
"Plagiarism means using another's work without giving credit. You must put others' words in quotation marks and cite your source(s). Citation must also be given when using others' ideas, even when those ideas are paraphrased into your own words."
Plagiarism is a serious violation of academic and student conduct rules and is punishable with a failing grade and possibly more severe action.
In order to avoid plagiarism, you must give credit when
This content is part of the Understanding Plagiarism tutorial created by the Indiana University School of Education.
Citation management tools help you manage your research, collect and cite sources, organize and store your PDFs, and create bibliographies in a variety of citation styles. Each one has its strengths and weaknesses, but all are easier than doing it by hand!
Tip: After creating a bibliography with a citation management tool, it's always good to double check the formatting; sometimes the software doesn't get it quite right.
Research Advisory Service for Cal Undergraduates
Book a 30-minute appointment with a librarian who will help refine and focus research inquiries, identify useful online and print sources, and develop search strategies for humanities and social sciences topics (examples of research topics).
This service is for Cal undergraduates only. Graduate students and faculty should contact the library liaison to their department or program for specialized reference consultations.

Where do I start? First off, I would've KICKED this little bastard's ass, as soon as I found out who he was. He just went into full gonzo retard mode after a while...when he thought he wasn't being watched. Its a bit violent to see a toddler be abused like this.
The fucktard's aunt in the interview, just made it worse. If anything, she added insult to injury.
I wont lie, I actually cracked up at the double-legged drop kick that he did...but the rest of this shit became harder and harder to watch. Anybody in their right mind, would commence to vigilante justice...oh wait, one guy did, but check out how it went downhill from there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

The Atlanta Hawks and the Boston Celtics are all knotted up at one game apiece in their opening-round NBA Playoffs series. The Hawks are playing with a depleted squad and it looks unlikely that they'll be able to receive any reinforcements before the first round is in the books.
Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that center Zaza Pachulia has a bone chip in his foot. Pachulia suffered the injury back on April 13 with a return timetable at the time of 4-6 weeks. According to Cunningham, Pachulia is definitely out for Games 4 and 5 and would likely be out for Game 6, should the series still be going at that point.
Pachulia had averaged 7.8 points per game and 7.9 rebounds per game during the strike-shortened 2011-12 NBA regular season. The Hawks player missed the last seven games of the regular season as the result of his injury.

METHUEN — A moose that wandered into the city overnight Friday and took a stroll down Jackson Street was struck by a minivan early yesterday morning and had to be euthanized by police.
The driver of the minivan was not injured in the collision, which occurred at 5:03 a.m. on Jackson Street near McKinley Avenue. But the moose could not stand again after being hit, and police believed its rear legs were paralyzed.
The officer who responded to the call euthanized the animal with his service weapon. The Department of Public Works picked up the carcass and took it to the city DPW yard until the state environmental police could inspect it.
Police Lt. Michael Wnek said the minivan had heavy front end damage. The officer on scene said in his report the moose was between 400 and 600 pounds.
Moose in Methuen are uncommon, but not unheard of, Wnek said. "Once a year we get a moose call, but usually it's just a sighting," he said.
