Finding means to conserve fish populations and to achieve sustainable fisheries requires understanding the effects of fishing on behavior, life history and population biology of exploited fishes. The work at CSTAR focuses on using mathematical, statistical and computer models to solve important environmental and ecological problems. The work is grounded in data, and also seeks to expand the base of basic knowledge that supports rigorous application of science to real-world problems. Furthermore, research on marine fisheries conducted in CSTAR allows testing theoretical predictions via natural and human experiments on a scale that is appropriate for understanding the dynamics of ecosystems. Such large scale experiments are rarely available to the scientific community.
The CSTAR grant provides level of core support which is then leveraged by teaching assistantships and graduate research assistantships or post-doctoral scholar support from other grants or contracts .This enables us to create a relatively large and interactively group of quantitative scientists working on a wide range of problems in fishery management.
The research and training of first class fishery scientists at CSTAR is science done in the national interest and moves in the direction outlined by the National Research Council in its report Recruiting Fihsery Scientists: Workshop on Stock Assessment and Social Science Careers.

Hawaiian Ahupua'a
Na 'Āina Kai's most recent project is a miniature ahupua'a, a pie-slice-shaped area of land
beginning at a point in the mountains and continuing into the sea. Early settlers to the Hawaiian Islands from the
Marquesas Islands and Tahiti, having discovered the islands in their voyaging canoe journeys, began bringing more
people and supplies here beginning around 1200 AD. The ali'i nui or high chief at that time divided the islands into
large districts or moku, then further divided these moku into ahupua'a. People within the ahupua'a were free to use
the resources there but were prohibited from taking anything from adjoining ahupua'a. The reason for the mountains
to sea division for each area was to provide the people within the area access to all the provisions they would need
for their daily lives.
Within Na 'Āina Kai's miniature ahupua'a, the mountain waterfall forms a stream that flows downhill past huts,
taro loi, sweet potato fields and other plantings into the fish-filled "ocean". The ahupua'a, when complete, will be home to 15
bronze inhabitants involved in traditional daily activities including kapa-making, mat-weaving, canoe-making, fishing, hunting
and planting. Each of these bronze inhabitants are the work of Hawai'i sculptor Holly Young.
Big Island artist Layne Luna has created fiberglass replicas of fish commonly caught in the Hawaiian ocean waters.
In Na `Aina Kai's ahupua'a are species such as the Spectacled Parrotfish (Uhu), Whitesaddle Goatfish (Kumu),
Threadfin (Moi), Convict Tang (Manini), Bluefin Trevally (Omilu) and Bigeye Scad (Akule). These represent a few
species that were an important food source for the ancient Hawaiians. Today, these same fish remain popular for
fishermen and snorkelers alike.
Plants within the ahupua'a are a combination of native Hawaiian plants, either endemic (found only in Hawaii)
or indigenous (occurring naturally without the help of man) and Polynesian introduced plants which came with
the original Polynesians in their voyaging canoes.

Exploring web-based groupware tools
Open source groupware tools have come of age. You are no longer limited to email and an address book. Some of these tools surpass the commercial alternatives – once you get them installed.
Web-based groupware tools offer simplicity for today's busy workgroup. From any web-ready computer with access to the groupware system, you can read your mail, examine your calendar, and check off items in your ToDo list. But which tool is right for your network? I decided to compare some of the more promising open source, web-based groupware collaboration alternatives.
Because I cannot do justice to all of the various products in this growing field, I have limited the study to products for which the emphasis is not on a specific task but, rather, on providing a collection of classic groupware collaboration options such as email, calendaring, contacts, and task management. Some of the shared task components included in this article are simple lists, and others are more like full-blown project management tools.

For The Herald Bulletin
ANDERSON, Ind. —
A night after overpowering Elwood in the sectional opener, the Pendleton Heights Arabians backed it up with another strong performance to take out Anderson 4-1 and advance to the sectional finals today at the Highland Middle School courts.
The Arabians started quickly with Lauren Robertson earning Pendleton Heights' first point at No. 3 singles with a 6-3, 6-0 win over Laura Lawrence.
No. 1 Carly Wilson earned the second win of the afternoon with a dominating 6-1, 6-0 victory over Anderson's Ashley Heruth.
Pendleton Heights wrapped up the victory with a win by the No. 1 doubles team of Audrey and Kayleigh Corn, who scored a 6-1, 6-2 decision over Charlotte Condon and Aquirsa Skipper.
The final two points would be well earned as the No. 2 doubles match came down to a third-set tiebreaker and the No. 2 singles match
was a long battle of back and forth between Pendleton Heights' Emma McCardwell and Anderson's Alexa Morris.
After losing the first set 6-2 to Anderson's Alexa Landaker and Aspen Christian, the Arabians duo of Haley Augsburger and Lina Larsson stormed back to win the second set 6-2. The 10-point tiebreaker went to 28 points before the Indians scored their first win of the night with a 15-13 edge to take the tiebreaker and the match.
On court No. 2, McCardwell and Morris were still battling it out.
McCardwell led 4-3 in the first set and had a shot to break Morris' serve. After forcing the fourth deuce of the game, McCardwell won the next point and hit a nice cross court shot that eluded Morris for a 5-3 lead.
Morris came right back to break McCardwell, but McCardwell returned the favor in the 10th game to take the set 6-4.
In the second set, Morris got out to a 2-1 lead, but McCardwell won the next four games to go up 5-2. Morris stayed alive with a win in the eighth game, but McCardwell finished it in the ninth to take the match 6-4, 6-3.
"We had some really good points, she (Morris) just hit back everything," McCardwell said. "It was really close, the score does not reflect how close it was. I just tried to hit my shots, but she got a lot of them back so I had to stay patient."
"Lex is just a battler," Anderson coach Jim Hostetler said of his senior. "She's just got that fight of a tiger. She just doesn't give up anything. Emma was just too strong for her."
Hostetler praised his seniors as they finished a tough campaign and fought to the finish.
"They (Pendleton) played well," Hostetler said. "They are just a little bit stronger than we are. I can't fault the effort my girls gave, I felt like we played probably as good as we are going to play. They gave it all. I've got six seniors that basically left it on the court. You can't fault that at all."
Anderson will lose Heruth, Morris, Lawrence, Condon, Landaker and Christian to graduation.
Pendleton Heights coach Royce Hammel preached patience to his Arabians, and the strategy worked.
"I told them 'one point at a time,'" Hammel said. "We've played them before, but you still have to prove it again."
Pendleton Heights moves on to play defending champion Alexandria in the finals today. The Arabians won a hard-fought 3-2 match in the county tournament semifinals against Alexandria last month.

Schedule for 2012-2013
Thursday, November 1, 2012 6:30 pm - The Lottery, But Never Doubt I Love, Bolero.
Based on Shirley Jackson's The Lottery* – one of the most famous short stories in American literature – this world premiere by former Ballet West resident choreographers Val Caniparoli tells the story of a quiet American town with a startling and frightening secret. Commissioned exclusively by Ballet West and set to a new musical score by Robert Moran, The Lottery* promises to be both fascinating and terrifying. It will also be a groundbreaking dancer/audience interactive experience, with the audience finding out the secret before the dancers – not to be missed! This exciting triple-bill also includes the return of Nicolo Fonte's critically acclaimed Bolero to music by Maurice Ravel. Rounding out the program is the revival and reworking of Helen Pickett's But Never Doubt I Love. Set to music by Felix Mendelssohn and originally choreographed on Ballet West dancers for the company's 2010 Innovations program, this touching work is at once sleek and "New Age" in look but profoundly romantic and emotional in feel.
*Presented by special arrangement with the Children of Shirley Jackson, and Literal Media
"Perhaps the most powerful theatrical experience Ballet West has ever offered."
– Adam Sklute
Wednesday, February 13, 2013, 6:30 pm - Cinderella
Don't miss the most famous curfew in history. Join Ballet West for the sparkling new production of Sir Frederick Ashton's Cinderella. Complete with a heart-stopping musical score by Sergei Prokofiev, this classic fairytale is filled with romance and comedy, mesmerizing dance, and hilarious fun for the entire family. Beautiful and grand, funny and touching, Ashton's Cinderella has been called the perfect ballet experience for newcomers, young audiences and seasoned aficionados. This season, Ballet West becomes the second company in America to present this magical spectacle.
"A loving, funny, choreographically elegant setting of this beloved story and Prokofiev's stirring score."
– Alastair Macaulay, The New York Times
Thursday April 4, 2012, 6:30 pm - Jewels
A Utah premiere, Jewels showcases George Balanchine's masterful choreography in a radiant triple bill. Known as the first abstract full-length work, this beautiful ballet is presented in three acts – each one creating a different mood. Emeralds, set to the lush music of Gabriel Faure, evokes the hushed intrigue and romance of the French courts. Rubies – a high velocity romp to Igor Stravinsky's fast-paced, jazz-infused score, mirrors the carefree spontaneity of 1920's New York. Diamonds is Balanchine's dazzling tribute to the Imperial Russian Ballet and work of Marius Petipa with the music of Peter Tchaikovsky.
"…simple and complex, thought-provoking and crowd-pleasing, deeply traditional and utterly modern."
– Roslyn Sulcas, The New York Times

Folks in central Louisiana awoke to a glorious start this morning with most minimum temperatures in the 50s. A few reading dipped into the lower 50s, with 53 at Leesville and Winnfield. Atlanta and Simmesport followed closely with 54 degrees this morning. Opelousas was the warm spot with 60 degrees.
Afternoon highs responded to the ample sunshine and the dry air with most locations seeing a 30+ degree turnaround from the morning low to the daytime high. For example, Bellwood hit 91 degrees after a morning low of 54. Natchitoches also registered a high of 91 while Colfax hit 90. Most readings stayed in the 80s, however, with Marksville, Simmesport, Opelousas, Ville Platte, and Bunkie at 85 degrees.
Slowly but surely, the weather pattern will change. Moisture will return by Friday and Saturday, just in time to meet a new cold front. This should stir up at least scattered rain on both of those days. You can look for higher temperatures, both at night and during the day, but it will not be anywhere near the heat experienced last week.
Enjoy the comfortable weather!

Good morning everyone.
Today's KC Chiefs training camp practice falls on Family Fun Day. Are any of you headed out to camp? If so, drop a comment in here or tweet me at @ArrowheadPride. Maybe we can meet up at some point.
Onto the football. The things I'm looking for today:
- Will the new player, guard Rokevious Watkins, be there? Who did he replace?
- Where is Geoff Schwartz rotating in with the second team - guard or tackle?
- Are these players, like Dunta Robinson and Eric Berry, getting over these early-camp hamstring injuries?
- How is Alex Smith's ball looking? (...that's what she said?)
Follow along practice with our embedded Twitter feed below. Here's the entire Chiefs training camp schedule.

Coast Guard:
Service Has Taken Steps to Address Historic Personnel Problems, but It Is too Soon to Assess the Impact of These Efforts
GAO-10-268R: Published: Jan 29, 2010. Publicly Released: Feb 25, 2010.
Additional Materials:

(202) 512-9610
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
During this decade, the Coast Guard has been challenged with expanded mission responsibilities, and concerns have been raised about whether sufficient personnel exist within the Coast Guard to fulfill these mission responsibilities. The terrorist attacks of September 11th resulted in additional and expanded security-related mission areas, while major natural disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina, provided lessons learned in allocating personnel and other resources across Coast Guard units. However, the impact of expanding Coast Guard missions and the increasing nationwide need for mission-ready Coast Guard units underscored shortcomings in the Coast Guard's ability to effectively allocate resources, such as personnel, ensure readiness levels, and maintain mission competency. GAO, the Offices of Inspector General at first the Department of Transportation and then the Department of Homeland Security, the National Transportation Safety Board, Congress, and the Coast Guard itself have reported on these types of personnel concerns both before and after the 2001 attacks. Commenting on the Coast Guard's fiscal year 2009 appropriations, congressional appropriators noted in a Senate Appropriations Committee Report that while the Coast Guard workforce is approximately the same size today as it was at the end of fiscal year 1975, its present mission responsibilities are greater. For example, the congressional appropriators reported that the number of foreign vessel arrivals in the United States increased by 61 percent over the last 10 years while the number of marine inspectors responsible for inspecting these vessels decreased by 1 percent. According to the Senate Appropriations Committee Report, however, the Coast Guard has not completed the necessary human resource requirements analysis to address the increases in its personnel needs. Further, a number of GAO's reports and others have noted problems the Coast Guard has had allocating its personnel and other resources to accomplish its missions. For example, in 2008, GAO commented on the Coast Guard's inability to clearly monitor resource allocations, particularly in mission areas like marine safety where work is heavily personnel-based and not as dependent on physical assets such as ships or airplanes. There are also concerns about the competency levels of some Coast Guard personnel. Specifically, maritime stakeholders have raised issues about the competency of some Coast Guard personnel to fulfill its marine safety mission, which Coast Guard leadership agreed needed to be addressed. Interested in these issues and others, Congress requested that GAO provide information on personnel efforts undertaken by the Coast Guard. This report discusses (1) documented personnel problems experienced by the Coast Guard in the last decade, (2) Coast Guard efforts to address these personnel problems, and the extent to which these efforts conform to congressional direction or identified best practices, as appropriate, and (3) possible challenges to their implementation.
The Coast Guard has made efforts to address its personnel problems, but it is too soon to assess these efforts' impact. The Coast Guard has a well-documented history of personnel problems, identified by Congress, GAO, and marine safety industry stakeholders, among others. For example, the Coast Guard faces continuing problems in balancing homeland security and more traditional missions, such as law enforcement and marine safety. The Coast Guard has made efforts to address these problems, such as the development of servicewide mission-support and mission-specific plans, as well as the creation or expansion of data-driven management tools. However, most of these efforts are in early stages of implementation or expansion, the data are not yet available to assess them, and of the four plans GAO reviewed, one plan did not fully conform to congressional direction. For example, one servicewide effort provides a description of the processes used by the Coast Guard to manage its personnel resources. Yet this effort did not include a gap analysis of the mission areas that continue to need resources and the type of personnel necessary to address those needs, in response to congressional direction. The remaining three plans generally conformed to best practices. Other efforts involve the development of electronic tools to allow for more data-driven management decisions on personnel requirements and preparedness. For example, the Officer Specialty Management System is designed to help workforce planners monitor the officer corps and identify potential shortfalls in specific knowledge, skills, education, and experience. The tool may help determine the rotation assignments of individual officers and assist program managers with calculating the time and cost of obtaining specific specialties, but officials do not expect the system to be fully online until 2011. Furthermore, as the Coast Guard continues to develop and implement these personnel related efforts, it faces challenges due to resource constraints, data reliability problems, coordination, and leadership concerns.

Ukrainian will, Carpathian pride and the summer of '69
Highlights of the 1969 USSR Cup final between FC Karpaty Lviv and SKA Rostov-on-Don feature all three goals, accordion-backed singing among Karpaty supporters and stress-reducing smokes on the touchline. Fans of assistant referees will appreciate sight of Tofik Bakhramov, who awarded the controversial winning goal at the 1966 World Cup final, at the 2:45 mark. (9:37)
Some 30,000 interlopers from the western extremity of the Soviet Union descended on Moscow on 17 Aug 1969 and, in a spontaneous assertion of nationalism, sang Ukrainian folk songs in the heart of the Soviet empire. Following a 20-hour train journey, supporters of FC Karpaty celebrated the temerity of a regional second-division club in making Soviet soccer history. The team known as the Carpathians, from L'viv, defeated SKA Rostov-on-Don, a top-flight Russian side, to become the only Soviet Cup winners from outside the first division.
More important, for a city and region that fiercely resented Soviet rule and that has spent nearly two decades of independence purging itself of imperial influence, the 1969 victory in a Soviet competition is still celebrated as testament to the "unbendable will" of the Ukrainian nation.
I grew up in L'viv before immigrating to the United States, and the 1969 victory forms part of my family history.
My father, then a young soldier finishing his Soviet Army service, joined 100,000 watching the match at the central Lenin stadium in Moscow, now Luzhniki Stadium, the venue for the 2008 Champions League final. Fans from L'viv sat in the stadium's western sector. My father, who could not get a ticket with his compatriots, ended up in the east section with the opposition. His Soviet military uniform was the only thing shielding him and three comrades from a mauling by Rostov fans as the game went on.
Down 0–1, Karpaty underwent a remarkable transformation after halftime. Buoyed by traveling supporters that incessantly sang Ukrainian songs, Karpaty won 2–1. My father recounts the joyful mayhem that ensued once the Cup was won: fans poured onto the pitch to embrace their heroes, while the team completed several victory laps.
Celebrations in Moscow paled to those that followed in L'viv itself. Fans carried players on their shoulders from the airport tarmac to the team bus; the revelry lasted into the early hours. L'viv would not experience similar joy until 1991, when Ukraine regained its independence.
A still from a documentary of unknown provenance (excerpt above) shows Karpaty backers on Cup final day, 17 Aug 1969. They hold banners of support, including a rendering of the club mascot, Zeleni Levy (Green Lions), confidently grasping the cup at its base.
According to sportswriters and Karpaty players, nationalist sentiment played a hefty role in propelling the 1969 team forward—support they later said should have been impossible under Soviet restrictions on displays of ethnic pride. Says 1969 team captain Igor Kulchitskiy:
I had tears in my eyes and almost felt an extra jolt of energy in my legs. If [fans] played these songs and showed such strong support, we had to give our all against the opposing team.

Stock markets are likely to react positively tomorrow as an expert committee on General Anti Avoidance Rules (GAAR) has recommended postponement of the controversial tax provision by three years.
However, rest of the week could be volatile as global market reactions to US Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke's Jackson Hole speech is likely to keep traders busy along with a host of local cues, they added.
Bernanke had in an August 31 speech to central bankers and economists at an annual forum in Jackson Hole focussed on the economic challenges that the US faces while hinting that the Fed will provide more policy stimulus, if needed, to aid recovery.
Back home, automobile and cement stocks will be focus this week as companies from these sectors declare monthly sales data for August.
"Stock market would react positively to the GAAR move in near term," CNI Research CMD Kishor Ostwal said.
As a step towards reassuring global investors, the GAAR committee in its draft report, has also suggested that GAAR provisions should not be invoked to examine the genuineness of the residency of entities in Mauritius.
Analysts, however, said domestic investors may continue to be concerned over the logjam in Parliament, which raised the prospect of washout of the remaining part of Monsoon Session which ends on September 7, dashing hopes for much-awaited economic reforms.
"Parliament's Monsoon Session stayed immobilised due to objection and uproar from BJP over coal block allocations.
This has once again raised doubts over the timely implementation of reforms," Rakesh Goyal, Vice-President, Bonanza Portfolio, said.
The 5.5 per cent GDP growth data for April-June quarter could imply weak hopes over an interest rate cut in near future and this may lead to further selling pressure in rate-sensitive sectors, he said.
Besides, rising crude oil price is not a good signal in an already slowing economy and would lead to rising costs, Goel added. Brent crude is trading over $100 a barrel.
According to Ostwal: "The next driver for the market is RBI policy on September 17."
On the global front, the ECB meet on September 6, remains an important event as it would give details on its plan to relaunch government bond-buying programme to help fight the region's economic crisis, an expert said.
Brokers said robust foreign fund inflows are a big positive for the equity market.
In August, Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) were gross buyers of shares worth Rs 48,136 crore, while they sold equities amounting to Rs 37,332 crore, translating into a net inflow of Rs 10,803 crore, according to a SEBI data.

has won the contract to supply the lighting system for the new Toronto Opera House. The Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts, will be the new home for the Canadian Opera Company and the National Ballet of Canada. Theatre has a 2000-seat auditorium specifically designed for opera and ballet.
The design team for the project includes Jack Diamond and Gary McCluskie, Diamond and Schmitt Architects, Shaili Patel and Lana MacInnes of Mulvey and Banani International, Electrical Engineers and Josh Dachs and Richard Hoyes of the theatrical consulting firm, Fisher Dachs and Associates. The acoustical consult-ants are Sound Space Design of London in association with Aercoustics Ltd. Strand Lighting has worked closely with both the Opera Company and the Ballet for over 30 years and most recently at their current home at the Hummingbird Center in Toronto with Julian Sleath Opera Technical Director and resident master electrician Tom Taylor.
The lighting system for the theater includes 500 series consoles with ShowNet nodes and is the largest Sine-wave dimming system sold to date with over 1000 SST Sine-wave dimmers. The use of Sine-wave dimming was critical on this project as the hall is designed for musical performances and is acoustically very quiet. The Sine-wave dimmers deliver a symmetrical, continuous waveform that does not add noise to lamps that would intrude into the quiet hall compared to any other electronic dimming technology. The SST dimmers also provided an added bonus in the form savings on the buildings power feeds from the heavily loaded downtown Toronto power grid. Designers and the electrical utility did not have to plan for the harmonic distortion present in a large conventional system which places additional loads on wiring and transformers. The unity power factor of the system will delver ongoing savings to the facility.
The traditional, four-tiered European-style horseshoe-shaped auditorium will be lined with resonant wood and plaster. Seating configurations were designed to provide unparalleled intimacy between the audience and the stage, with every seat computer-tested by FDA for the best possible sightlines. A large, flexible orchestra pit will permit the presentation of the full range of opera repertoire, from chamber pieces to full scale 19th and 20th century works. Full rear and side stages, generous dressing rooms, wardrobe and instrument storage all will allow three full productions to play in repertory.
Tim Burnham President of Strand Lighting comments "We appreciate the confidence placed in our company by consultants Josh Dachs and Richard Hoyes, of Fisher Dachs and Associates in New York City, who specified Strand Lighting for this flagship project." Richard Goode National Sales manager for Canada adds, "We worked closely with the Canadian Engineering team at Mulvey and Banani along with Salex Marnik our representative to insure that the electrical design meshed with the theater consultants vision of the project. The result will be a wonderful building to work in."

Citizens Showing Support For Our Troops!
I started this petition to show our Armed Forces that we support them and the task which lies ahead of them. We as Americans should never repeat the disgusting treatment of Military Personel as we did after Vietnam. Even if one is anti-war, we need to respect the brave men and women who serve our country. I plan on sending the results of this petition to my two brothers (One in the Air Force, the other in the Navy) along with my close friends who are stationed in Middle East in the Marine Corp and Army National Guard. Let us never forget those who are out there protecting our freedoms and rights and keeping us safe from terror. Wether they are home or abroad we support them!

A crop of American cockroaches brings in serious cash.
Sweeping changes could be on the way at the Lucas County Board of Elections. A report delivered to the Ohio Secretary of State is calling for a change in office leadership.
Secretary of State John Husted assigned one Republican and one Democrat to examine how the board of elections operates. Husted says he expects the recommendations in this report to be implemented and it should serve as a final wake-up call to the Lucas County Board of Elections about improving its operations.
Read the letter Secretary of State John Husted wrote, requesting a review of the Lucas County Board of Elections.
"It's one of the worst I've seen in my 20 years of either working elections administration or observing it," said Republican Jonathan Allison.
Allison and Democrat Jim Ruvolo, former Lucas County Elections board member, are recommending the immediate removal of the director and deputy director of the Lucas County Board of Elections. They also are recommending a series of sweeping reforms within the office and how it operates.
Allison and Ruvolo were chosen to review the operations at the Lucas County Board of Elections. Besides recommending the top two elections employees be fired, they are calling for an evaluation of all elections employees, as well as a complete overhaul of policies, procedures and protocols. They suggest having Husted appoint "special masters" to run daily operations until replacements are found.
According to their report, the office runs with complete mistrust and paranoia between the Republican and Democratic workers. They say the office is lacking in accountability when it comes to keeping records and tracking how taxpayer money is spent. They also say organizational and cultural deficiencies need to be corrected.
"I'm not a taxpayer in Lucas County, but I am a taxpayer in Ohio. The fact of the matter is the complete lack of management, fundamentals, policies and procedures are mind-boggling," said Allison. "Voters and taxpayers - at a minimum - ought to know there's a budget being managed. They ought to know records are managed and stored according to state law."
Ruvolo also had negative remarks on the office and its operations.
"No more basic requirement of a government body than to produce a budget, a line item budget, that says: Here's how we're going to spend the money. This board didn't do it," said consultant Ruvolo.
The big question is what will happen if the four-member board does not follow the recommendations of the report.
"We're going to take time to look for a positive response to the conditions they've set upon us and we will take this under advisement," said Board Chairman Ron Rothenbuhler.
Rothenbuhler and board member Jon Stainbrook both say they are working together to improve operations at the local elections office.

Goldeneye, Jamaica
Ian Fleming's beloved Jamaican home where he wrote 14 of his famous 007 novels. What Fleming loved most about Goldeneye was the out of doors, nature, the sounds and colors, the peace and drama of living by the sea. He delighted in "the blazing sunshine, natural beauty and the most healthy life I could live."
Ian Fleming's original house features a stunning view of the sea, three bedrooms with optional air-conditioning, garden baths and showers, swimming pool, sunken garden, separate media play room with theatre screen, exotic Balinese furniture, private beach and kitchen.
A hotel has now been built on the island, have a look on Goldeneye.com for more information.

SAN ANTONIO -- The past 48 hours have been marred with the deaths of three teen girls killed on San Antonio roadways.
The latest death occurred late Wednesday night on Weidner Road near I-35.
According to San Antonio police, 16-year-old Andrea Reyna was driving east on Weidner Road when she lost control and rolled her vehicle while going around a curve.
Investigators said she was ejected from the vehicle and died at the scene.
Reyna's death comes two days after two Brandeis High School students died from injuries suffered in a accident during their lunch break.
The two girls have been identified as 17-year-old Gabriella Lerma and 16-year-old Gina Rodriguez.
The girls were hospitalized on Tuesday after a friend who was driving attempted to pass a large truck on the Loop 1604 access road but did not realize the truck was turning left onto Hausman Road.
The car they were riding in smashed into a utility pole.
Lerma died that day.
Rodriguez was taken off life support early Wednesday morning and died sometime overnight.
The driver and the front seat passenger were still recovering in the hospital as of Thursday morning.

The 39'ers use the ending to the high school's season to motivate them.
Velva was one win away from State, but fell to Bishop Ryan ending their great
run. They've shaken off that loss for the Legion season and have started out of
the gate well, posting a 12-2 record. These players don't have one set position
and that has worked to their advantage.
"The versatility is a plus because it allows us to move people around when
needed. We've dealt with some injuries and some vacations and some football
camps and everything else but we're still able to compete at a high level just
by shifting bodies around. We don't seem to be hurt by it too much," says Velva
assistant coach Brent Engebretson.
"We're just hitting bats, making plays, doing the little things right. We're
getting heads into the game. We just keep playing and there's not much else you
can do about that," says Michael Thingstad.
Thingstad is battling a wrist injury but this long layoff should help him
Velva doesn't play again until next Tuesday against

FISHERS, Ind. — Voting machine problems have caused delays and long lines at one polling station in a heavily populated Indianapolis suburb.
Hamilton County residents had to wait nearly 30 minutes to vote at Hamilton Southeastern High School in Fishers because voting machines weren't operating when that polling site opened Tuesday.
WTHR-TV reports (http://bit.ly/TtcyZQ ) that by the time the problem was fixed a half-hour later the school's gym was filled with voters and the line spilled out the door.
The heavily Republican county north of Indianapolis saw other polling station problems, but those were quickly fixed.
Hamilton County Election Administrator Kathy Richardson says cards used to clear tallies from machines before voting begins were improperly programmed. Some 500 machines in about 150 polling places had to be reset once those cards were reprogrammed.

Movie About Jack Kerouac Filming in Lower Haight This Week
Exciting news for celebrity watchers, film buffs, and Jack Kerouac fans; potentially inconvenient news for Wiggle bikers, Muni riders, and folks who park on Haight Street: a new film about Kerouac will be shooting a scene on Haight between Pierce and Scott Streets today and tomorrow.
The film, dubbed Big Sur (also the title of Kerouac's 1962 novel), stars Kate Bosworth, Josh Lucas, Anthony Edwards, and actor Jean-Marc Barr as Kerouac.
According to entertainment site Deadline, Big Sur will focus on "Kerouac's move from New York to Northern California, as he tries to rediscover himself after badly handling the fame, drugs and decadent lifestyle that came with his groundbreaking novel On The Road."
Haighteration reader Paul B. tipped us to the above notice posted a few days ago on Haight Street. The notice reads:
Dear Merchants & Residents:
Big Sur Productions will be shooting a scene for a feature film on Haight Street between Pierce & Scott Streets. The filming will begin at 8:00 am and will finish by 10:00 pm on both days.
To facilitate our filming we will be posting "No Stopping" signs in some areas for our camera positions and equipment vehicles.
We will also have SFPD present to facilitate intermittent traffic control on the night of Monday April 18th. All residents will have access into and out of the area.
Our filming is being coordinated with the San Francisco Film Commission and the San Francisco Police Department. All required insurance and permits are on file at the Film Commission and will be present on location during filming.
We would like to thank you in advance for your cooperation. We will treat your neighborhood with respect and hope to keep our short stay a welcomed one.
We don't have any details of the scene that's going to be shot on Haight Street, nor whether any of the main actors will be involved, but we'll keep an eye out. In the meantime, if you manage to catch any of this Hollywood magic in action, let us know!

Spoiled rotten for 5 days!
My three friends and I planned on taking a "Man-cation" with the hopes of living it up and being treated like kings for 5 days. We came to the right place. The house is beautiful with the most stunning views of the mountains and ocean. Cristina spoiled us rotten with delicious breakfast every morning and lunch and dinner at our request. She came with us shopping and took over from there. The house was cleaned daily, laundry done, and we felt right at home. The rooms were very comfortable, the a/c worked in all the rooms, and we had all the towels and amenities we could ask for. Dilenia, the owner was extremely responsive before and after the trip. Some thoughts: Although the beach and dinning is a short 10 minute walk down the mountain, the mountain is steep. Real steep. My friend weighs 300 pounds. Going back up the mountain on foot, not so good if you're not in top shape. We rented a car and got to visit a few beaches like Sosua and Cabarete. Driving in the DR is like a grand theft auto video game and not for the faint of heart but we are glad we rented a car and toured the area. Taxis are expensive for tourists so just a heads up. Pool was clean and delicious but outdoor jacuzzi is not heated. Plenty of places to eat el fresco and we didn't experience any bug bites or mosquitos at or near the house! We did one tour of the waterfalls. It was really awesome if a) you don't mind trying to be sold stuff along the way (cigars, sculptures, coffee) b) you are in great shape. The actual waterfalls were very challenging and only two of the four in the party could participate. The locals depend on tourism so they do their best to earn your money but they aren't pushy and everyone was so friendly. Back to the house. We spent half the time traveling and touring around and the other half at the house. Cristina made us feel like royalty in a mansion and we wouldn't have traded it for any all-inclusive resort...this was so much better!
"Great destination, perfect place for anyone!"
I have stayed at this property several times and I am thoroughly pleased each time. The community is gated, well maintained and secured 24 hours a day. Once you drive into the community you have a sense of safety and comfort. The owner of the house (Tracey) if a great guy, he is extremely attentive to any needs and ensures that all guests have a great experience. The property has up to date amenities, appliances, WIFI, a large selection of HD movies and phone service that allows you to call back home to the USA. The house sits on a hill that you can see the beach/ocean from the front of the house and if you open the front doors as well as the back doors there is an incredible breeze that blows through the house. There is a separate pool house that has a large TV with gaming systems that my son really enjoyed. The master suite is huge, and also has a huge TV in it so you can watch movies on the DVD player while lying in bed or watch cable. The master suite has a glass indoor shower or an outdoor private shower which is wonderful for morning showers in the sun or late night showers under the stars. The staff keep the house cleaned each day, along with laundry service if you wish. The pool is cleaned each morning just after breakfast so you can go for a dip if you like. I would recommend this property to anyone, families, adult couples or if you just want to get away. Great place to stay, I definitely will continue to stay at this property.
Awesome Trip to Puerta Plata
The trip was awesome for our family!. All of the email correspondence from you to us leading up to the trip with detailed information was greatly appreciated & very useful. The resort, our villa, amenities, and accommodations were ALL praiseworthy and booking through you made all the difference! Thank you again!

Fire crews tackle boiler fire in Stanford-le-Hope (From Thurrock Gazette)

Fire crews tackle boiler fire in Stanford-le-Hope
11:39am Monday 27th January 2014 in News
Fire fighters were called to a boiler fire this morning in Stanford-le-Hope.
The fire started in the blocked flue of the gas boiler at a property on St Margarets Avenue shortly before 9am.
Two crews from Corringham and Orsett extinguished the fire by 9.42am.
Station officer Geoff Wheal said the occupants had been alerted to a problem in the boiler by their carbon monoxide detector at the weekend, but chose to ignore it.
He said: "The alarm had gone off at the weekend and rather than taking action about the carbon monoxide leak they had removed the alarm instead.
"There was obviously something blocking the flue which caused the alarm to go off and today caused the fire in their boiler.
He added: "It is never sensible to ignore a carbon monoxide detector when it is going off. Immediately turn the boiler off, ventilate the property and call the gas board.
"Taking the alarm out of the cupboard and ignoring the problem is the worst plan you could ever make.
"Had they reacted properly when the alarm first went off they could have made sure they were safe in their home and prevented a fire in their boiler."
