Luxury botique hotel near Shinagawa stationPosted Aug 27, 2014
Pros: Comfortable and great setting. Close to Shinagawa station. Pleasant staff. Great air conditioning. Large attractive rooms.
Cons: Not charge for swimming pool or gym use. Although, I must admit we didn't have time to use either.
Location: Walking distance to Shinagawa station which gives access everywhere. It has a nice plaza with restaurants and gift shops.
We thoroughly enjoyed our weeklong stay. We asked for a room with a view and we received one with a beautiful view of the city and Tokyo tower in center. Awesome!! Rooms were large. Beds were extremely comfortable. Bathroom facilities lovely and always stocked with essentials and extras. We went in August, when it was very hot and humid. The air conditioning in the room and hotel was great! Staff spoke English well and were always helpful and cheerful. There was always someone there to greet you when you came back during the day. The hotel is connected with other Prince hotels on the property. Very lovely setting. We walked to the other hotels sometimes for breakfast which were less expensive. The hotel is walking distance to Shinagawa station, which made it very convenient. There were always 2 bottles of water replenished daily at no charge. There was a convenience store on the way to station or back to hotel. It was a regular stop for snacks or ATM. Also can purchase tickets to various sites there. Great hotel. Would definitely stay at this hotel again!!

Great location for mass transit, excellent servicePosted Feb 3, 2014 on Hotels.com
Not 5 stars because it's not the most happening neighborhood (super safe of course). But that doesn't always matter. It has excellent access to Shinagawa train station (2 blocks), excellent service and very nice facilities. For a business trip, I wouldn't hesitate to stay again. For my next leisure trip however, I might look for something in a more happening area as I did have to take Taxis or train to all of my restaurants and for sight seeing.

Summers wouldn't be complete without a trip to Traverse City. I have said this before, but I believe it is THE most beautiful area in all of Michigan and a top 10 in the United States. Perhaps it's the cherry orchards, the sleepy mainstreet, the breathtaking bay views or the locally owned restaurants and wineries that keep us coming back. It may be the combination of these things or just a certain kind of magic that helps us to forget our normal lives and slip into a moment where we can feel a sense of wonder and freedom. I think it is that element of wonder that makes us crave vacations and as I have added more responsibility to my life, I find it harder to attain. Yet, this place has the ability to make me put my hand out of the window, feel the breeze in my hair, savor some bubbly and enjoy the moment.
Here are a few of our favorite places to explore:
Morsel Bakery – Exquisite bite-sized pastries and hand-crafted coffee. 321 East Front Street . Traverse City, MI
Located in one of our favorite areas in Traverse, The village at Grand Traverse Commons or the former Northern Michigan Asylum, Higher Grounds joins many of our top bakery, restaurant and shops. The coffee shop roasts their own beans, provides pour overs that rival the best cups I have had in SF and are green friendly. So, don't expect a traditional to-go cup, if you need it to-go you will be walking out with a thrift store coffee mug with no lid. So take some time, enjoy the patio and savor the hand-crafted taste of outstanding coffee. 806 Red Dr #150, Traverse City, MI
Family park without the crowds (our secret find from the locals) South West Bay Shore (22) just outside of Traverse City on your way to Suttons Bay. https://www.shortsbrewing.com/
It is a little bit of a drive from Traverse, but the beer makes it well worth the pilgrimage. Most nights they have live music and the food is locally sourced, gourmet-inspired and absolutely fantastic. 121 N Bridge St, Bellaire, MI http://www.lmawby.com/index.php?route=/
LMawby – You can't go wrong with bubbles. BY FAR, my favorite vineyard in Michigan. The wine is fantastic, the people are fun and the design is the best! 4519 Elm Valley Rd, Suttons Bay, MI
A new addition to our Suttons Bay loop, Tandem Ciders feels like Michigan. They have a worn wooden bar with pickled eggs and ciders from orchards all over the peninsula. Located in a restored barn, the tasting room is nestled in the country side and feels like a get away. 2055 N Setterbo Rd, Suttons Bay, MI
The wine is decent, but the tasting room and the attitude of this vineyard always seems to make it the last stop on our tasting tours. 8580 E Horn Rd, Lake Leelanau, MI
For a number of years I have always looked forward to our May weekend getaway to Old Mission, just north of Traverse City. Although it is often a little chilly, I still feel like this experience signals the start of summer for us. Blossom Days offers wine lovers the chance to taste barrel room selections and the best of the vineyard.
The eight wineries of Old Mission:
2 Lads Winery // 16985 Smokey Hollow Road
2 Lads does a great job with Michigan reds and offers one of the best views on the peninsula. The modern architecture offers an incredible tasting room experience.
Black Star Farms // 360 McKinley Rd. East
Black Star Farms original location is on the Leelanau peninsula and they added this location a few years ago. The tasting room is in a quaint farmhouse style and they offer one of the largest selection of wines featuring both dry and sweet. We purchased a Pinto Grigio – perfectly crisp with citrus notes.
Bowers Harbor Vineyards // 2896 Bowers Harbor Road
Bowers tasting room is nestled within the vines and they have a beautiful arbor to welcoming you to the experience. They had an incredible presentation on their process and approach to Chardonnay and their focus on aging in the traditional French method is admirable. They also have a fantastic vineyard dog and let's face it, dogs make every brand better!
Brys Estate Vineyard & Winery // 3309 Blue Water Road
Brys offers estate grown wines and focuses on a European style approach to wine making. They have a beautiful tasting room and offered the best food and wine pairing (an incredible asparagus risotto salad). They have an outdoor space with adirondack chairs facing the vineyard and some of our favorite memories are spent sipping wine and watching Maggie.
Chateau Chantal // 15900 Rue de Vin
We have stayed at this bed and breakfast and their wine making has improved over the years. Perhaps one of the best views, seeing both bays, they offer a tranquil patio and we got their Chardonnay – a beautiful blend of buttery oak flavor.
Chateau Grand Traverse // 12239 Center Road
They are celebrating 40 years on Old Mission and have gamay noir that is not to be missed.
Hawthorne Vineyards // 1000 Camino Maria Dr.
The newest addition to the Old Mission Family, the tasting room sits high upon a hill and looks across to Leelanau.
Peninsula Cellars // 11480 Center Rd.
Located in an old school house, Peninsula is often our first stop on the Old Mission Trail. They have a great tasting experience.
We love the Old Mission and can't wait to get back next May!
Sitting in the Detroit river between Canada and the skyscrapers of downtown Detroit, Belle Isle provides a respite from an urban landscape. Initially designed by famed urban park planner Frederick Law Olmsted in the 1880s, the island features a beachfront, boathouse, acres of open land, beautiful fountains, botanical garden and aquarium. Although only portion of Olmsted's plans were implemented, Belle Isle is a truly remarkable. A few weeks ago a friend of mine and Maggie decided to visit the aquarium and botanical garden to take some photos and explore. The aquarium has recently been restored along with other portions of the park. For years this island was abused, neglected and even housed the lawn furniture of the former mayor. And although Detroit has a long way to go, the bankruptcy has brought some positive change and has transferred ownership of the park from the city to the state park system. For now, it will be protected as a place for people to enjoy and will be invested in as a gem of Detroit. On a sunny Sunday morning, I got to see how Detroit is being brought back to a new life, one fish and flower at a time.
We saw everything from cacti, cupcakes to cowboys in Scottsdale, AZ. The desert landscape has a storied beauty in it's dichotomy of hostile needles and gentle flowers. Outside of the city, hills are covered with the rare and surprisingly tall saguaro cactus. Native to the Sonoran desert and the state symbol of Arizona, the saguaro can grow to 40 feet tall, has flowers, fruit and often lives to over a 150 years old. They are magnificent and their presence makes an Arizona sunset something to be remembered.
Scottsdale offers a beautiful desert experience partnered with the very best shopping, art, dining and even architecture. We were surprised to see a Sprinkles Cupcake, but made sure to stop and get a red velvet. Maybe not native to Arizona, but perfectly decadent for a vacation.
Throughout old Scottsdale there are numerous Remington sculptures. One of my favorite professors from Spring Arbor University has a couple works by Remington and he always talked about how he was able to capture the spirit of the American West. Although he was from New England, as a young man he took many trips west and observed the land before it was tamed. He understood the untouched wilderness and captured the men and women who settled the land. His drawings, sculptures and paintings are a perfect representation of the American west.
Life size bronzed horses, cowboys and cacti are on almost every street. On Thursday nights, the galleries stay open late, musicians play on the streets and you can grab a beer in a saloon or a meal from a James Beard award winning chef. It was heaven. I know we will be back. Arizona offers warmth, hospitality, culture and a nature experience second to none.

Tonight when I see her on the bus I am reminded how I now keep snacks in my office and backpack and purse in a fashion I never would have thought of as logical before. I am reminded how a few hundred people are still not back in their homes or have simply moved away.

My baby already sings Baa Baa Black Sheep and Row Row Row Your Boat, which is also a Mother Goose classic. Who knew?
Without Mother Goose, there would be no Little Bo Peep or blind mice or old women living in shoes. There would be no men in tubs, no Muffets on tuffets, and no pat-a-cakes or wishing on stars. And that would be a very sad thing for babies everywhere—and the mothers who rock them.
Today, May 1, is Mother Goose Day. Sing and clap and celebrate. Your baby will love it.
What's your baby's favorite nursery rhyme?
my kids love patty cake. my 3 yr old thinks that the most fun is singing it to her 8 month old brother
My son loves Itsy bitsy spider and Twinkle twinkle the best.
My oldest loves to sing them all. He is constantly singing at least one of them pretty much all day. The first one he learned and we loved to hear him sing was "Twinkle Twinkle" and now he sings them to his little brother which makes it even more adorable.
Twinkle Twinkle!! My 2 year old will walk up to you and demand that you "twinkle me!" which means you have to sing twinkle twinkle with her!!
My son loves Baa Baa Black Sheetp, and Humpty Dumpty. You just have to be careful where you say the Humpty Dumpty poem because he will sit up/stand up real straight and then when you say "had a great fall" he falls back...hard...without bracing himself. It cracks us all up!
itsy bitsy spider, pat a cake, and twinkle twinkle are my kids' favorites
If your children are fans of Humpty Dumpty I'm sure that they would hate to miss out on his latest adventures. The Adventures of Kid Humpty Dumpty is a wounderful book that kids and Parents can enjoy. You will fall in love with the clumsy egg boy all over again Check it out at www.eloquentbooks.com/theadventuresofkidhumptydumpty.html

Lost my Energizer batteries and bought this as a replacement for my Canon Powershot SX20 IS camera. Product was neatly packed and quick delivery from flipkart. After a full charge was able to take nearly 450-480 shots (few with flash) decent enough for a 2300+ mAh batteries. Not sure about the shelf life. I remember having a full charge in the batteries and it was kept idle for almost a weeks time. When I used the batteries again, the battery was completely drained and was not able to take any snap. Not sure if I am using it incorrectly but it works perfectly fine everytime I charge and use it immediatly.
Found these batteries are great. flipkart's delivery service was good too. almost in time. these batteries are fitting well with my existing ni-mh battery charger. checked with my digi camaera & it worked well, battery backup is great.
At first look, they do look expensive, but are worth every bit. As stated, took roughly 7 hrs to charge the first time round, and then have been running for the past 7-8 days without any trouble (about 10-15 shots a day). Just a word of caution - there's another Sony battery 2100 mAH which is pre-charged if you want to get to work immediately. These batteries were completely discharged when they arrived so had to charge them for 7 hrs before I could use them. My recommendation is go for these higher current rated batteries than the 2100 mAH since they give you more value and power.
Flipkart Delivery was as usual up to the mark - super fast - took less than 48 hrs to get to me.
Nice product ..... worth for money . i have ordered this product and got on time with nice flipkart packet along with the bill.................:) kind advice for flipkart make the tracking updates at least everyday.
Got the product in 5 working days ..... no issues regarding that .... thought the product was sourced from Japan ... but turned out from China .... written 2500 mAh on top right corner but also shows (min. 2300 mAh) written on left corner .... this description isn't there in the pic displayed on website .... anyway I hope it works fine coz I had issues with 2300mAh batteries before ..... I own Sony DSC H-5 model ..... the original 2500 mAh batteries lasted for almost 4 years .... subsequently bought batteries lasted just 8 months ..... would write another review once I test the batteries after charging .....
i'v been using these batteries in my fujiflim's s2950 camera...and amazingly i found that these batteries click more then 600 pix at one time...i seriously not felt need for lithium batteries after i'v been using them..
very heavy performance batteries...specially for cameras.
My Canon SX 160 is a battery eater. Previously I owed a pair of Camelion and a pair of Envy batteries, both are of 2100mah. Any single pair of them usually sustained up to 150 pictures (less with flash) but the serious flaw of those batteries that worried me was their incapability of holding charge if remained unused for few days. If I left them charged and unused for few days, their performance decreased to 1/3 or less of their original capacity.
Recently they warned out completely and I started to search for better option and found these two pairs of Sony 2500mah. Flipkart supplied them two days earlier than their promised delivery date, as usual.
Primary experience was heart breaking. After 50-55 shots they do ceased to perform. Exactly after 5th charge they came to their real power. I took nearly 300 shots with each pair of them. And they are performing steadily and vigorously since then. Even I took more than 300 shots recently. I left them charged and unused for 2 or 3 days and then used them and they took 200 or more shots easily. I am over joyous finding these great solutions to my troubles I often face during travel through remote areas, as a photography enthusiast. There are many rural places I travel where huge power failure or absence of electricity is a common occurrence. In that situation I had to stock too many alkaline batteries previously and grant my rechargeable batteries a good sleep in my back pack with their charger.
It takes almost 17 hours to charge fully. I charge them with my Onron eight port charger (4 for AA size and 4 for AAA size) and did not faced any problem of less charging or no charging I read in other reviews. So in my opinion, getting a Sony charger is not mandatory. Just a high quality charger is necessary.
These batteries are made in China. But that will be of no problem in this case. I personally despise Chinese products very much, empirically. And can???t do anything if a company of this repute conducts their production in China for some business reason. Also I think Sony will be able to maintain their quality even if they had to shift their production units in Kalahandi or South Pole.
Hello all,
if u have digital camera and you are looking for battery with a few hours of charge and long hour of back up . Go for this SONY BATTERY.
I also used KODAK battery, its more than worse.Finally i found my solutions with this battery .
For 7hours of charge=7 days.
I have 8 of these batteries that power my strobes (little flashes that I use for my photographic work). These little AA's last long, and so far have not failed me. Highly recommended product.
Also, delivery by Flipkart was excellent. Got it next day, neatly packed too.
Bought it to use it with my wireless mouse and keyboard. Works perfect.
I have also tested it with my Sony H9 camera. I was able to shoot video for about an hour with single charge.
These batteries are not pre - charged. You will have to charge them at least 8 hours before you use them.

CHICAGO, Ill. - For the sixth consecutive year, ridership has dropped slightly for South Shore train service.
South Shore officials are blaming the drop partly on fewer riders going to festivals and other entertainment in the Windy City.
A company spokesperson says job growth has also been slow in downtown Chicago. The line says it boarded 3.6 million passengers in 2013.
They had 4.25 million riders in 2007 before the declines began.
This comes as a push is on to extend the rail line into counties north of Chicago.

Saints Row: The Third was originally about an undercover agent
How Saints Row: The Third dropped its undercover narrative for something more over the top.
Development of Saints Row: The Third began in October 2008, the month Saints Row 2 shipped, but only 20 percent of the new team had shipped a previous Saints Row title. Not everyone had a defined idea of what Saints Row was. Scott Phillips, Design Director of Saints Row: The Third, explained the false start and "aha" ideas that led to the game being published in November of last year.
Tone had been an issue for the series. In Saints Row 2, you could run around naked and surf a car, then drag around a man from a car and mercy kill him. The tone wasn't consistent. They wanted Saints Row 3 to produce the same feeling throughout the game.
What was that feeling? Should it be gangsta or gangster? Over the top or true to life?
For the first six months of development, Saints Row: The Third was about an undercover agent, played by you, infiltrating the Saints gang. The design focused on morality choices: find a bale of cocaine and you decide whether to turn it in to the FBI or give it to the Saints. The team liked the idea. But, as Phillips says, it wasn't Saints Row.
The team was confused, lacking confidence in the vision. They needed a solution soon as possible.
At some point early on, brainstorming meetings began to pivot on a new design mantra: "Embrace the Crazy; Fun Trumps All." "Over the top" became the buzzword of the project. At team presentations, they'd review big ideas, so the team had to answer why or why not something fit. They also got out of the office with movie outings, seeing movies like A-Team that matched the tone they wanted. The tone began to coalesce.
Designers put together tone videos, mashups of footage from various movies, like Shoot Em'Up and Bad Boys, to show the team what the player should feel like while playing Saints Row: The Third. The designers wanted to create "Holy Shit" moments like those in the films. "Things you would remember forever," Phillips said. "Water cooler moments." Things like skydiving through a falling airplane or riding a two ton ball down a skyscraper. What they didn't want was missions where you drive from one place to the next. What he called "FedEx" moments.
Most importantly, Phillips said, was the decision to pre-visualize everything. Pre-visualization is a rough draft that can be shown to team members and a skeptical publisher. "Showing [people] something, makes it a lot easier to get them being your idea." Two years before they had completed the introductory level, in which the player fights off helicopter from an airlifted bank vault, there was a pre-visualization available to show the team and the publisher.
Phillips notes on other important ethos for Saints Row: The Third. "One of the lessons coming out of Saints Row 2 was I didn't want the player to be a dick," said Phillips. That job was reserved for the dildo bat.

Hello all! We're excited to finally be launching our new Colts Blog: www.ColtsCamp.com
After lots of caffeine, beer, time, and frustration - we're "launching" - a bit earlier than we planned so hopefully you can bear with us as we're still modeling house a bit.
Quick Disclaimer: We at ColtsCamp are fans of anything Colts - and this especially includes StampedeBlue. This isn't an act to "destroy SB and take all users as ours" or anything of that nature. We're here to offer something additional - and we extend our hand to StampedeBlue as mere "friendly neighbors" monitoring every move as we are for our favorite team: the Colts! If this gets removed - we'll take the hint although we'd love to rather work together with SB and perhaps partner up? We strive and hope for the latter.
Some of what we have to offer:
- Colts articles submitted by seriously quality head writers weekly and daily when ANYTHING happens with the Colts. A deeper knowledge for the new Colts fan or a good discussion for the expert.
- Make things interesting – and fun – and lets the fan (you) be a part of the experience, which yes, means YOU can submit news too and it'll display on our front page and mixed in with our head writers articles. Your opinion MATTERS.
- Breaking news, but it won't be our top priority. Our top priority is to be a deeper fans perspective – not necessarily being "first". We'll delve into each game and break it down. Football stuff!!
- StableTalk - A live game chat experience that will be an instant way for us all to communicate LIVE during the game. No more slow loading "Live Game Threads". See reactions of Colts fans instantly around the world when Andrew Luck scores yet another 4th quarter touchdown to win the game.
- Contests and ways for users to get involved. Photo contests, article contests, etc.
- Trolls? We're getting rid of trolls and banning anyone who argues for arguing sake. Forever.
Again: www.ColtsCamp.com --We're still cleaning house and some features may stop working at any moments notice - we hope to be "fully launched" by Pre-season. Excuse our mess!!

To the editor:
"Freedom is just another name for nothing left to lose." — Kris Kristofferson/Janis Joplin
The senseless shootings in Sandy Hook Elementary School defy explanation.
Coming as it did at the time of year, the place, and upon its unwitting and innocent victims leaves even this old curmudgeon gasping for breath and bewildered at its formlessness.
Could it be that chaos is the norm rather than the aberration? Could it be that the notion of "freedom" that we Americans have so proudly usurped as our identity is nothing more than the frenetic entropy referred to in the rather pessimistic lyrics of the above mentioned singer of the 1960s?
A visibly moved President Obama Sunday night addressed a grief-stricken community of Sandy Hook, Conn., at its local high school. It is a town like a thousand other towns around America, a high school auditorium, like a thousand other high school auditoriums, addressing an audience like a thousand other concerned parents and townsfolk. A potentially worthy topic matter for a Norman Rockwell easel was conceivable.
Something was askew, however. Remarks usually reserved for commemorating and making sense of a cause sanctioned by the government were now being used in the attempts to make sense of the unthinkable happening in the theater of a school setting — to explain the unexplainable, to put order on chaos seems to be beyond our grasp.
"Certainly we can do better…," the president understated when he queried whether we are doing our utmost to protect our children.
The president's ability to divest himself of the sloganeering crutch of this happening being attributed to "a cost of our freedom" spoke to the central issue, I believe, of this horrible prevalence of violence and guns in our society.
That we are a society that values independence and individuality is a fact few would dispute. We are taught we can get what we want, when we want, by whatever means be at our disposal. Often what is lost in this mindset is the inherent need for the healthy person to rely on the help and care of others.

Jeffrey Graber is the Sports Executive Producer for KWCH 12 Eyewitness Sports. This is his account of a hike to the WSU Crash Site.
Having grown up in the area, I've always known about the Wichita State Plane Crash. I knew it happened in the past, but I couldn't tell you when. I knew it happened on the football team's trip to Utah, but I didn't know where the actual crash site was located.
I'd heard an occasional story from my uncle, who was a freshman on the team. At that time, freshmen were not allowed to play varsity, so Uncle Al played on the freshman team, and didn't travel with the varsity. That didn't keep him from sharing memories of his teammates.
Click here: Photos from WSU crash site today
With my interest piqued, I watched the documentary "Black & Gold" on PBS. I attended the Wichita State Graduate School, and while working in the Athletic Department as a Graduate Assistant, I gained a better understanding of the crash and was beginning to understand how it affected the department. Once I watched the documentary, I knew it was time to see the crash site for myself.
I set out to gather more information about the journey and what it would take to get to the site. Little did I know just how much of a task it would be to climb only half a mile.
My first step of preparation was to ask my uncle about the site and exactly how to get there. If you've spent time in the Rockies, you've probably driven past the site and not even known it. Located less than 1.5 miles (as the crow flies) from the Eisenhower Tunnel on Interstate 70, I thought it would be pretty easy to make the hike. After finding out where to park and how to approach the trail, I felt confident the site would be fairly easy to find.
I also spoke by e-mail with Jess Huxman, one of the producers for KPTS. He had made the trek to the crash site with three of the survivors as part of the documentary. Jess put it best when he said it was a humbling place to see, and that I'd never forget the experience. Truer words were never spoken.
In the summer of 2011, my extended family took a vacation to Breckenridge, Colorado. My father, brother and I made the time in the vacation to go to the site. Coming from Breckenridge, you only have to go through the tunnel and then immediately exit as if you're going to take Highway 6, which is the bypass if the tunnel is closed. You're able to park in front of a gate that blocks the access road, so it is a safe place. You are now off of the interstate, but still right next to it.
Armed with satellite photos and directions from my uncle and Jess Huxman, we set out to climb the one-third mile road which was the first part of the trek. This was the easy part because it was an access road for ski slope maintenance equipment, but once we reached the storage shed for the equipment, the real hike began.
Taking a hard left turn, we could see the dual tracks that led up the mountain. I knew to look for the tracks, having read that these were originally made by the bulldozer that basically forced its way up as part of the rescue effort for the crash. We began climbing, and quickly realized we were in for a much tougher journey than expected. The slope is not so much a hike up, as a climb up. Had I known the severity of the slope, I would have spent extra time at the gym on a stair stepper because we were basically going straight up.
It took us forty-five minutes to travel .48 miles up, including frequent breaks to catch our breath and swat away the hundreds of mosquitoes that took a liking to us. We finally reached the top of the climb, but knew we weren't there yet. Before our trip, we had been cautioned that we would think we were there, but there'd still be more to go. Sure enough, all three of us felt this must be it, but we didn't see any wreckage. By this point, the tracks had basically stopped, so we went off of what we'd been told and from what we could see in the photos we had with us.
With another left turn, we started down the mountain and only two hundred yards later we came into a clearing. There was no doubt we had found what we were looking for.
Charred timber was our first clue, and with a couple more steps we saw thousands of pounds of wreckage littering a space of approximately one to two acres.
Just as Jess said, it was a very humbling experience to see the space knowing how many lives had been lost in that very spot. It was an absolute body-blow to the Wichita State Athletic Department; in fact some would say the established program never fully recovered. Though the crash was in no way the reason for the department dropping the football program, it's hard to imagine it didn't leave a lasting effect.
Almost forty-one years later, the timber was still charred and the trees still hadn't come back. Looking at satellite images, one can still see the scar the airplane left on the side of the mountain. After the trip, it struck me just how close to the top of the mountain the crash site was located. According to the photos, we only dropped back down about 200 yards, which means the airplane was only that far from making it over the mountain top. Only 200 yards away. 200 yards from a scar on the mountain, and a scar on a university.
It's been almost two years since our visit to the crash site. Two images have stuck with me the most; the melted metal throughout the wreckage, and a single headstone. The liquefied metal showed how hot the fire was as the airplane and the timber around it went up in flames with the help of the spilled fuel. 41 years later that hardened metal remains.
The other image, the single headstone, stuck with me for two reasons. I had just climbed a very difficult path taking frequent breaks with only a camera on my back. I can't imagine making the same climb with a heavy headstone on my back. For whoever made that trek, I'm sure the sacrifice was well worth the reward of memorializing the site with the headstone.
Another reason I won't forget that headstone is because I'll never forget the date etched into it. The WSU plane crash occurred on October 2, 1970, and for the rest of my life, I'll be able to picture that date on the headstone.
Having made the trek up the mountain, I now know where the crash site is located. Because of the headstone, I know when it occurred. October 2, 1970 is a date I'll never forget.
For anyone associated with Wichita State University, it's a trip I highly encourage. If you'd like any more information about making the climb, I'd be happy to help.

"I will look back knowing I was attacked for standing on my principle, for coming into this public process with the idea that you ought to put forward something to offer the public so that they can make a clear choice," said Mourdock in his concession speech on Tuesday. His campaign notably came undone after he said pregnancies that resulted from rape were something "God intended to happen." (Photo: Scott Olson/Getty Images)

Ad campaign touts preventive care benefits of health reform law
The Obama administration is kicking off a nationwide ad campaign urging seniors to take advantage of free preventive services such as cancer screenings made possible in Medicare by the new healthcare law. The campaign -- featuring television and radio ads in English and Spanish -- comes on the heels of a new report showing that less than one in six Medicare beneficiaries have taken advantage of the new benefit since President Obama signed the law last year. The new law includes numerous provisions to encourage more preventive care, which many health experts believe is critical to controlling long-term health costs. Among the services available to Medicare beneficiaries without any cost-sharing are mammograms, bone density tests and prostate cancer screenings. Seniors are also able to see their doctor for an annual wellness visit without being billed a copay.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Festival express
Your handy guide to some of Manitoba's biggest summer events
For the average human being, the shortest perceptible experiences include a flash of a laser beam, a millisecond-blast of birdsong and the amount of time you spend laughing during an Adam Sandler movie.
These experiences, though extremely brief, pale in comparison to the subjective perception of a southern Manitoba summer, an utterly glorious yet infinitesimal and fleeting phenomenon that appears to end before it actually begins.
One minute, you're sitting down to enjoy your first patio beverage of the season, the next, you're shovelling snow and fumbling for your extension cord.
To make the most of your precious summer, here are some of the festivals you may partake in while you're pondering the very nature of perception and pouring yourself a beer:
Winnipeg International Jazz Festival
Until June 22, downtown Winnipeg
What you get: The final four days of the annual jazz shindig, which includes some actual jazz this year.
What you won't get: A do-over of last weekend's free concert series at Old Market Square, which was all but drowned out by torrential rain.
Headliners: Arturo Sandoval (June 19), Ellis Marsalis (June 20), John Legend (June 21) and St. Vincent (June 22).
Tickets and more info: jazzwinnipeg.com
Dauphin's Countryfest
June 26-29, Selo Ukraina site
What you get: 56 country, roots and rock performers north of Riding Mountain -- and the hardest-partying campground outside of Sturgis.
What you won't get: Attitude for wearing nothing but a cowboy hat, a swimsuit and flip-flops all weekend.
Headliners: Blake Shelton, Tim Hicks, Brett Kissel and Rascal Flatts.
Tickets: Weekend passes are sold out. So are Friday, Saturday and Sunday passes. Thursday passes are $79.
More info: countryfest.ca

What not many people know, there is a also a Tutoring Program for Hispanic chlidren, initiated by Sister Margarita Brewer, who is in charge of ESL (English as a Second Language) at Cincinnati Public Schools. Several P&G Hispanic employees are also very involved in this program - Karla Sanchez, Juan Bonilla, his brother Alejandro Bonilla, and Juan's wife - Mireilly Rosado-Bonilla, come weekly to AMIS to tutor kids on different subjects.
Juan, a graduate of University of Puerto Rico in mechanical engineering, moved to Cincinati in 2004, and now is actively "giving back" by helping Latino kids in improving their grades and by being a role model for them. The wonderful work done by all of the tutors deserves a big "Thank you" from all of us!
I talked to Amy and Stephanie, two lovely fourth graders of Mexican descent. Both were born in USA, and while fluent in English, they enjoy the tutoring and have been participating in this program since 2006. Both would love to become doctors, and realize that only good education and good grades will enable them to realize their dreams.

Tor Is Building an Anonymous Instant Messenger 109
from the most-private-of-messages dept.
Tor? The 'dark net' who's largest nodes are run by the NSA doing traffic analysis? That Tor?
The one that brought down silkroad?
Nope wrong wrong and wrong.
Tor is has had about very few highly throttled node running on amazon cloud for a couple of weeks run by the NSA according to head TOR developer Jacob Applebaum at 30c3 about a month ago. Additionally the NSA's own documents released by Edward Snowden showed that the NSA can't break current TOR releases.
Secondly silkroad was brought down by Dread Pirate Roberts mixing his darknet identity and his clearnet identity by using the same email address and handles. Another break in the case was when a package with fake ID's was intercepted at a Canadian border check.
Okay, first off, the nature of instant messaging is such that you can't truly have an anonymous system. After all, while "the network" may not know Alice, Bob, and Carole, the three of them must know each other and be able to distinguish between them...otherwise you've simply got ChatRoulette and the purpose of IM is largely moot.
Retroshare provides fully decentralized IM, pseudo-email, and file transfers. It's a wonderful tool in this regard. It solves the problem of $IM_SERVICE keeping a record of your chats, because there isn't one. It solves the problem of packet sniffing, because it's all PGP based and thus there is no such thing as an unencrypted packet that enters or leaves the software. It solves the problem of needing a server, because everyone is a peer. All of the things that this Tor program seems to solve, has already been solved, and then some. "Well then,why doesn't everyone use it?" Well, the nature of Retroshare makes it difficult to gain critical mass. You have to understand, at some level, how PGP works - instead of a 'friend request' with that person's actual name, you get to share public keys to 'add' them. This is fine and dandy, but opens up a few new problems. First, even cutting-and-pasting something the size of a PGP key and then reciprocating it to the other person is going to cause the eyes of most people to glaze over. Second, you'll need to exchange keys somehow; if you're e-mailing keys back and forth, most people would say "...so just e-mail the damn message". This is where the file sharing half comes into play, since users can trade files directly without having to do much else. However, with Dropbox/Gdrive/1Drive/etc making transfers stupid simple, the practical application for Retroshare in the eyes of Facebook Chat and Whatsapp users starts to wane significantly when put up against "use an already-functional communication medium to do a PGP exchange that will facilitate another communication medium." Bonus points for Retroshare being a smidge petulant when it comes to port forwarding, and not having a mobile version for any platform.
Conversely, we have IRC. it's ancient, and the UI of mIRC doesn't jive well with the Instagram crowd, but anyone with some semblance of tech skills can run an IRC server. Set that up with SSL and your communications are encrypted, with nothing more than a generic handle to identify you with. The problem is that you'll need someone who can set up such a protected server, and by definition, you have a single point of failure. IRC's other failure (which may apply to Retroshare as well) vs Tor is that IRC does involve IP addresses, so you'll still need a proxy of some kind (or Tor itself) to obfuscate that little nugget.
Tor routing communications through other users as a part of the protocol is the one problem it solves. Secure transmission of text-based messages has been solved pretty well already, "Anonymous IM" is an oxymoron based on the fact that IM in itself usually assumes a prior relationship of some kind between the two parties, and even if it didn't, each user will need *some* sort of unique identifier to ensure that Alice gets messages meant for her, Bob gets his, and Carole gets hers.
The degree of technical confidence is inversely proportional to the level of management.
