Amazon 'to launch local services marketplace'
Online retail giant Amazon is set to launch a new service helping link people with services such as plumbers and handymen in their area, Reuters reports.
The move is seen as a challenge to popular US sites such as Yelp and Angie's List which help connect people with local services, though there is no indication of whether the company plans a similar service in the UK.

Fort Valley Experimental Forest is located in northern Arizona. The Experimental Forest consists of four disjunct units located within the Coconino National Forest. Click the map to explore the experimental forest in Google Earth.

Forester Gustaf Adolph Pearson became the Director of Fort Valley and was the sole scientist on the site in the winter of 1908-09. He lived in this uninsulated cabin first built in 1906 as a forest ranger's cabin. He buried his canned food to keep it from freezing, but the cans froze anyway and the labels came off. Pearson never knew what his meal would contain until he had opened a few cans. The next spring, he built an insulated residence/office now known as the Pearson House.
In August, 1909, Fort Valley served as the site for Ranger Schools to train incoming District 3 rangers. Students learned silvilcuture, camp maintenance, law, grazing, fieldwork, horse care, and office work during the two-week sessions. Two sessions per year were held intermittently until World War II began. A baseball game pitted the Arizona rangers against the New Mexico rangers and included rules that base runners had to remove their spurs and firearms. The camaraderie that developed was as important as the skills learned.
A 1910 test of ponderosa pine's ability to produce resin was led by Forest Service engineer Harold S. Betts who based his research from Fort Valley. The initial response was good enough for more research the following year over a larger area. Results indicated that ponderosa pines produce resin at about 4/5 the quantity of southeastern trees when factors such as length of season are the same. Resin quality is similar and the main problem to developing turpentine operations in northern Arizona was the lack of skilled laborers. The potential existed for a market, but the idea was never pursued.
Pearson and Region 3 silviculturalist T.S. Woolsey, Jr. established permanent sample plots over all the various forest types in the southwest in 1912. They measured, photographed, and inventoried the plots every five years until Pearson's retirement in 1944. NAU forestry professors and students have been remeasuring the plots for the past eight years, providing a ninety-year record of change.
A weather study initiated in 1916 followed biologist C. Hart Merriam study in 1889 when he suggested the lifezones theory based on his work on the San Francisco Peaks. Fort Valley scientists placed weather recording instruments and nurseries at various altitudes. They planted exotic species to see if they would survive and take weather readings weekly. They would leave the Fort Valley station at daybreak with snowshoes strapped on and lunches packed.
By 1927, Fort Valley's scope of operations had grown to include Range studies. Charles K. Cooperrider was the head of this Division. Scientists studied domestic and wildlife grazing damage to tree reproduction and also studied range grasses. Permanent Range Study Plots were established around Region 3 and are still being monitored.

I love sugarsnaps they are my favorite. Actually, I was hoping to start a Sugar Snaps fan club. I already know about 6 people in my area alone that would join. Maybe we can come up with sugar snap recipes and do a swap. I have already made chicken cutlets with crushed sugar snaps the taste is unbelievable!!! I am pretty sure the more we support Sugar Snaps the more we are going to see how blessed our lives will become. I am living proof of that already. Write me if you want the recipe for the chicken cutlets. Peace Out.

Orbotix Inc. hits big distribution target
Last Updated: 14:57 October 8, 2012
Orbotix Inc., the Boulder-based company that manufactures Sphero, announced the rollout last week.
Being carried by Target is a major milestone for the company, chief executive Paul Berberian said. Orbotix was founded in 2010 and its cofounders, Ian Bernstein and Adam Wilson, went through the TechStars Boulder startup accelerator that summer.
Orbotix has used a savvy social media and web campaign to market Sphero, and highlights in the company's young history include a well received debut at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. President Barack Obama gave Sphero a test drive during a trip to Boulder this spring.
While the buzz - along with $11 million in investment from venture capitalists - has made Orbotix a standout among Boulder startups, Sphero needs greater exposure and a place on large retailers' shelves to reach the company's lofty goals, Berberian said.
"The name of the game in consumer electronics and gaming is getting in front of customers," Berberian said. "We feel like we've been out there for a long time telling our story, but most people have never seen a Sphero. This is essentially our launch."
While Target is not the first retailer to carry Sphero - it also is available at Brookstones and some Apple Stores - Target's reach is far broader. Target is the third-largest retailer in the United States, according to the National Retail Federation.
Getting into a major retailer is a lot like getting stores of any size to carry a product.
"If you have something interesting, exciting and compelling, they'll take a chance on you," Berberian said.
Sphero will be stocked in the "app accessory" section, which is a new area in Target, Berberian said. The section will be near the consumer electronics section, he said.
Suggested retail price of the Sphero is $129.99.

Treating Software as a Strategic Technology
by Marcus J. Ranum on March 29, 2010
Lately I've been thinking a lot about the problem of software security - "lately" being the last 15 years of my life, give or take. It seems to be a topic that's perennially on the horizon, because only a few cutting-edge software companies take it seriously enough to engage in some kind of secure software development lifecycle. I think that we security practitioners have "screwed the pooch" with regards to software security - 'vulnerability researchers' have done a pretty fair job of convincing most vendors that it's useless to even try; whether you get targeted or not has more to do with whether you're unpopular or market-dominating than with whether your software is foundational. Where have we gone wrong? It's simple: we treated it as a security problem. It's also a reliability problem - a quality problem. We asked the users to demand security, but what they needed to be demanding about was software that worked. Not just sometimes, but all the time - even if someone is deliberately trying to make it crash.

Retail and housing developments are up for discussion at Tuesday's meeting of the Vacaville Planning Commission.
At the Nut Tree, officials seek to amend a policy plan that would allow a "health and beauty services" use in the Phase 3 location, which houses Sleep Train and Starbucks, across the street from Panera Bread.
If approved, a European Wax Center could move into a 1,225-square-foot space on the site.
"As part of various City Council actions on the Nut Tree, including the 2010 Policy Plan Amendment for Health and Beauty Services in Building O, the council has deemed the Nut Tree project to be in compliance with the city's General Plan," city planner Peyman Behvand advised in a staff report. "The project proposal does not include any requests to alter the zoning, or the General Plan. Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with the city's 1990 General Plan."
The planner advised that "the applicant has indicated the proposed use would benefit the shopping and restaurant experience in Phase 3," and that operating hours would be "the same as other personal service uses, and on weekends the use operates with shorter hours of operation."
Parking is sufficient, he continued.
Regarding housing, commissioners are set to hear a proposal by K.B. Home relative to the Sterling Chateau Unit 4 subdivision at 5276 Vanden Road.
The applicant, according to Albert Enault, wants to "modify the approved Sterling Chateau Unit 4 Planned Development and Design Review for the purpose of introducing four new house plans and a model home complex, for the 54-lot subdivision."
The proposed house plans, Enault said in his staff report, include three single-story and one two-story models consisting of three elevations each. Floor plans range from 1,957 to 2,784 square feet. House plans, meanwhile, include 3 to 5 bedrooms, 2 to 2 1/2 bathrooms, kitchen and dining facilities, a family room and other options.
The Planning Commission meets at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the City Council Chamber, 650 Merchant St.

Letters: Vote Down the Free Staters
Vote Down the Free Staters
To the Editor:
It was clear at the Grafton deliberative session last Saturday that the vast majority of townsfolk were thoroughly disgusted with the shamelessly obstructionist attitude the Free Staters took, which is what they always do because of their lack of a more productive and respectful pastime. Sunday's newspaper article did not sufficiently expose them as the very small minority of out-of-state fringe tax evaders they truly are. Most of them, even some who actually own land in town, refuse to pay property taxes; those who do pay, cram a gazillion people onto one property with the express intent of not paying taxes. Some of them register their vehicles through a fake business in Wisconsin so as to avoid state inspection, other residency requirements, etc. Some of them live full-time in Florida yet somehow are registered to vote in Grafton. The bottom line is: They are not even willing to fully commit to living here!
The legitimate taxpaying townsfolk are sick of having to waste an entire day (and more) bickering with people who don't pay taxes and don't even really live here. The idea that we can expect the best decisions to be made for the town regardless of attendance has disintegrated. Every single warrant article was hacked apart to try to get residents to become fed up and leave, so the Free Staters might gain a majority. One of our selectmen warned us of their delay tactics. We had to vote to disallow reconsideration on each article lest the Free Staters bring the articles back up after everyone had left. This time the Free Staters did not get their way.
We should continue to push against them. One way to help ruin their ambition is to vote for the new Mascoma High School project. Not only would this be excellent for attracting good teachers and intelligent people to the area, but it would also spit in the face of the Free Staters' anti-education mentality. Finally, keep an eye on the ballot for their junk. You will see many sneaky warrant articles that have nothing to do with good old-time New England values. Vote them down.

Red Sox Trophy Day
To the Editor:
Great Eastern Radio of West Lebanon is extending an invitation to the community as we will be hosting the Red Sox World Series Championship trophy on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Jesse's Restaurant on Route 120 in Lebanon. The Upper Valley is home to passionate and loyal Red Sox fans, and last year's championship was even more special for our area, especially with Red Sox General Manager Ben Cherrington growing up right here in our own backyard and helping to put the championship team together.
This event is free to the public, but we do ask that fans please bring a nonperishable food item to be donated to the Upper Valley Haven. Jesse's will also be hosting lunch specials for fans to enjoy after getting their picture taken with the 2004, 2007 and 2013 World Series trophies. There will also be a special live broadcast on WTSL 94.3-FM/1400-AM and WTSV 1230-AM with Brett Franklin and Matt Houseman talking baseball with sports fans throughout the event.
And of course, KOOL 93.9-FM/96.3-FM will once again be the Upper Valley's home for Red Sox baseball all season long. Fans of all ages are encouraged to come out and celebrate with Great Eastern Radio and the Red Sox. We here at Great Eastern Radio are truly dedicated to continuing to deliver local content for our audiences. Our staff comprises people who live, work and raise families throughout the Upper Valley, and it is with great excitement we share this special occasion with our dedicated listeners. Go, Red Sox!

Town Clerk Race in Royalton
To the Editor:
I am writing to announce my candidacy for town clerk in the town of Royalton. This will be the first contested race for town clerk of Royalton since 1970.
Serving my community as assistant town clerk has been very rewarding. The past two years has been an incredible experience of learning, exploring the history of my hometown, and meeting people in the community. The office experience I had gained over the years, as well as my computer skills and knack for problem-solving, made the transition to my new career go smoothly.
If elected as town clerk, I will continue to learn and better serve our town. I will research opportunities to update our land-recording process that will be cost-effective, efficient, improve accessibility and provide for secure long-term storage. I will work with the Selectboard to provide a consistent and legal employee policy for any person working under the supervision of the town clerk. I will work with the Selectboard, listers, finance manager, treasurer and Police Department to create a professional, friendly and supportive workplace as we move toward working in a single office complex. I pledge to return to an open accounting system supported by the treasurer and finance manager, to be fiscally responsible and to participate as needed with annual audit requirements. I pledge to follow all rules, regulations, laws and statutes to the best of my ability and to support my successors, in the best interest of the town.

Lack of Character Is Nonpartisan
To the Editor:
Anthony Stimson, as ever even-handed, charges representatives of the American left with "utter lack of character." He is right, of course; but thank God, there is counsel available — no longer, alas, in the person of "I Am Not a Crook" Nixon, nor "I Was Taking a Nap During Iran-Contra" Reagan. Yet we can be instructed, say, by "I Will Not Engage in Nation-Building" Bush (and his helpers, "Ken Lay of Enron and Red Cavaney of the American Petroleum Institute Are Just the Folks to Help Us With an Energy Policy" Cheney and "Mushroom Cloud" Rice). To keep our morals in place we can appeal to "Family Values With a Wide Stance" Larry Craig or to the irreproachable Sen. David Vitter.
But character issues are not susceptible to partisan judgment. Lack of character exists on both sides of the aisle and in every human quarter on Earth, Mr. Stimson. Your selective disdain betrays you.

Expand Weathersfield Library
To the Editor:
Over 100 years ago, a man named Benjamin Blood gave to the town of Weathersfield a small public library, well-built of brick in the village of Ascutney. It has served as our town library ever since.
Times change, and libraries have changed greatly in the past decade. Today the library has an enthusiastic and creative staff, and it offers — in addition to books, magazines, DVDs, computer use, and interlibrary loans — fun and informative programs for all ages. However, the library frequently must hold programs off site due to its tight quarters.
The library's Board of Trustees has worked with an architect and created an Expansion Committee to raise the town's attention to increasing the size of the library. This committee has held a number of programs and fund-raising events. And our head librarian, Nancy Tusinski, has developed a blog, www.wplexpansion.blogspot.com/ that describes a clear, comprehensive rationale for the need to enlarge the library to serve the community.
On Tuesday, March 4, Weathersfield voters will be asked to approve a $1.3 million bond for library expansion. Now is the time to become informed of this worthy project. And please do remember to vote.

Gun Control Is Not the Answer
To the Editor:
Bob Williamson's Feb. 9 letter on gun control glosses over many key details. At the risk of repeating myself, I'd like to fill in those details.
First, Adam Lanza's mother purchased the gun that Lanza used to kill his mother and the children. Unless Mr. Williamson advocates unlimited family snooping by government officials, there was nothing in her background that would have stopped the purchase. Why is Mr. Williamson unwilling to understand that?
Second, the incessant street and gun violence continues. It has happened in New York City, in Chicago and in other major cities. New York and Chicago already have draconian gun control regulations. Does Mr. Williamson really believe that those involved in the violence will suddenly worry about background checks, enhanced or otherwise? The guns used in these crimes are readily available on the street; pay the money, no names needed. It is pure fantasy to believe that more background checks will reduce this kind of violence. If he lived in Chicago, he ought to know.
Third, the Second Amendment to the Constitution is clear and unambiguous and has been upheld by the courts. The people have the right to keep and bear arms. When the enhance background checks and other measures proposed by gun control advocates prove to be futile (and that will happen), the next step will be for them to try to ban private ownership of guns altogether. Why not cut to the chase? Draw up the language for an amendment to the Constitution and follow the provisions in Article 5 to try to get it approved.
Finally, before anyone tries to ban guns by amending the Constitution, remember what happened when the country tried to ban "the evils of alcohol." The only thing Prohibition did was create more crime and more evil than "the evils of alcohol." Prohibition was finally repealed. Attempting to ban private ownership of guns will face the same fate with the same disasters along the way.
This country has problems. The family, especially in minority communities, has disintegrated. Morals, values, discipline, respect for life are quickly diminishing. When we begin to address those problems, we may see a better future.

Filling in the Gaps
To the Editor:
We were delighted to read Jon Wolper's fine article on our son, cellist Daniel Lelchuk ("The Making of a Cellist," Jan. 17), but would like to fill in two important gaps. Daniel's wonderful first teacher, who nurtured his love of music for 10 years, was Donna Denniston, of West Springfield, N.H. In the summer, Daniel plays (principal cello) with the conductor Lorin Maazel at his Castleton, Va., music festival.

Gold Stars for Paper Carriers
To the Editor:
I'd like to recognize two Valley News employees. My dog went missing on Sunday, Feb. 2, and I contacted the local police department, and posted a message on Facebook. News traveled quickly. At 4 a.m., while James Martin was doing his paper route, he saw my dog and acted quickly. With the help of Valley News carrier Keary Morse, he was able to get in touch with me, and I was able to locate my lost, scared dog who had been missing for 17 hours in the cold and snow and had traveled four miles away to the next town of Orange. I am forever grateful for their actions and for helping to get my dog home safely. These guys both deserve a gold star!

ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Former Tampa Bay Buccaneer and STL Ram defensive end Tyoka Jackson has been sued by a male flight attendant for Northwest Airlines who claimed the player knocked him across an airplane aisle.The incident allegedly happened Feb. 13, 2005, as the plane approached St. Louis. Jackson was not on a Rams-related trip. The suit was filed this week.In addition to the suit, the Federal Aviation Administration proposed a $20,500 fine for Jackson, who now plays for the Detroit Lions. The FAA said flight attendant Gary Rihn was shoved by Jackson after repeatedly asking the player to stow his carry-on bag. Rihn was shoved so hard that he landed feet in the air against another passenger, the FAA said.Jackson's lawyer, Tom Magee, told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that Jackson only poked Rihn, and only after being poked first. Magee said the FAA fine had been confidentially settled for less than the full amount.Rihn's lawsuit, filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in St. Louis, seeks $250,000 in actual damages and $750,000 in punitive damages. Rihn's wife, Bonita Rihn, asks for an additional $200,000 for "loss of consortium."Rihn has paid more than $6,300 in medical expenses, the suit said, noting that he also suffers from post-traumatic stress syndrome.Magee said, "Obviously, the lawsuit's being filed because it's Tyoka Jackson ... not John Q. Public."Copyright 2007 Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed (ooooops!)

Suns GM McDonough not surprised by Phoenix's strong start
Originally published: Dec 11, 2013 - 5:33 pm
But don't put Suns' GM Ryan McDonough in that group.
"I'm not surprised, but I'm happy with how quick the group has come together," McDonough told Arizona Sports 620's Burns & Gambo Wednesday.
"Getting guys to buy into their roles, balance their minutes. One of the best things for (head coach Jeff) Hornacek and I is how unselfish they are. Different guys finish games, it's not always the same group out there at the end. Guys are rooting for each other. You don't always see that."
Phoenix has jumped out to a 12-9 record and would be in the playoffs as the Western Conference's No. 8 seed if the season ended today -- quite the opposite of the 60-loss projection the team given by many analysts after a busy offseason in which the Suns' lined themselves up for as many as six first-round picks over the next two years.
But as Phoenix competes for a postseason spot, McDonough said he wouldn't part with any of the offseason assets he acquired in hopes of just reaching the playoffs this year.
"We'd make a move if we thought it helped us short and long term," McDonough said. "Say someone mid-20s and under who we think could be a Sun for multiple years, then yes. But we're not looking to trade a pick for a 35-year old guy who might get us in the playoffs."
McDonough added that he doesn't think it's a challenge to balance his long-term vision for the Suns with the possibility of winning right away, and said the Suns' youth is a big part of that. Channing Frye is the only player in the Suns' rotation older than 28, and much of the team's core is in its early 20s.
"I think the good organizations are consistent and stick with the plan," the first-year GM said. "But we owe it to the coaching staff to do whatever we can to help our guys make a playoff push, but within the framework of a young guy who can help us now and in the future."

Children's Hospital Colorado
Quiero ser un jugador de fútbol.
If a testicle can be felt within the groin, your child may undergo a surgical procedure called an orchiopexy. During this procedure, a small incision is made in the groin so the testicle can be located. A second incision is then made at the base of the scrotum where the testicle is placed, to prevent it from twisting or moving upward.
In about 20% of males, the testicle cannot be felt within the groin. This can mean that a testicle is not present, or that it is within the abdomen. The presence and location of the testicle is determined by a surgical procedure called laparoscopy, where a camera is placed into the abdomen to look for the testicle. If the testicle is found and is healthy, it can then be brought into the scrotum. This may require more than one step, especially if the testicle is found within the abdomen. If the testicle is not healthy, it may be necessary to remove it. These operations are usually outpatient procedures, so the child does not need to spend the night in the hospital.
Our urologic surgeons have extensive experience in diagnosis and treatment of undescended testicles and understand that this can be a very sensitive topic for parents and families. We work with the family to ensure that the best course is taken for every child. We also believe that it is essential to constantly assess our outcomes, and ensure that our results are always available to families.

A Lyrical Guide To Uncommon Instrument Day
It's Uncommon Instrument Day, so celebrate with these, er, wacky instruments in these lyrics...
Happy Uncommon Instrument Day, everybody! That's right, today's the day to honor all those instruments that never get a break: guitars, drums, and pianos are usually stealing the spotlight. So, why not pick up an instrument that doesn't get a lot of attention on this fine Wednesday? Not sure what instruments aren't usually played? Our Lyrical Guide to Uncommon Instrument Day will help you out. Check it out below...
Tip #1: Dig out that kazoo from your childhood toy box
"Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo / Down on the corner, out in the street / Willy and the poor boys are playin' / Bring a nickel, tap your feet..." — Creedence Clearwater Revival, "Down On The Corner"
One great thing about the kazoo is that you'll probably find it lying around your house somewhere, and all it takes is an inhale and an exhale. Join CCR in a street party and break out your kazoo skills!
Tip #2: Give the didgeridoo a try and embrace your inner Australian
"Cause she's so Australian / Down under on my didgeridoo..." — B.o.B, "Cool Side"
We're assuming the didgeridoo is an uncommon instrument because of how difficult it is to play, but if your life's in need of a good challenge, listen to B.o.B and give it a shot!
Tip #3: Ukulele chords are different than guitar chords
"Do you mind? / If I play the ukulele / Just like a little lady..." — Janelle Monae, "Tightrope"
If you're a guitar player and think you can easily transfer your skills over to the ukulele, then think again — their chords differ than their guitar cousin! We don't mind if you play the ukulele, Janelle Monae, but make sure you know the chord formation.
Tip #4: Borrow a tuba from your high school band
"In real life the only time / I've ever even been to L.A. / Is when I got the chance with the marching band / To play tuba in the Rose Parade..." — Brad Paisley, "Online"
One of the more unfortunate instruments deserves love today: tubas are just so sad! If you play (or played) it in high school, dust it off and give it a chance again.
Tip #5: Try to love the bagpipes
"Bring my bagpipe, I grab my flute..." — Macklemore, "Castle"
Do you have Scottish blood? Whether you do or not, join Macklemore in an impromptu performance and take your best shot at playing this, er, interesting instrument.
Check out our other lyrical guides, from how to beat the heat this summer to making sure you eat your veggies.
Do you have any tips on playing uncommon instruments from other pop lyrics? Let us know in the comments...

Not much to say. hope you like it. It's our first.
Tha was kool, liked the graphics.
Good stuff.
Good graphics...
but it was far to slow and boring and the music was very quiet. A preloader would also help. Other than that a good flash except for no one in their right mind like Harry Potter!
I do have a preloader. other wise NG would not have accepted it.
Wow that was amazing
Dude your flash was friggin awesome. I'm a big Harry Potter fan and your trailer was tight. I'm already excited about Order of the Pheonix even though it won't be out till 2007. But anyway good job. It was very nice.
well it was a good flash...
...but i hate harry potter.
very nice
i love how you didn't give away too much in this trailer... i'm always worried about watching fan-trailers, bc they tend to tell too much about certain points in the movie...
you did a fantastic job

I have White dock and headphone socket for mine but didn't fit as look drama to do
I have a white iphone 4, my employees all have white iPhone 4's, and our friends do also.
It is extremely easy to convert any black iPhone 4 to white. The parts are readily available to do so as well.
Look at the picture of the back of the box it says white 32g iphone 4 looks legit to me WHITE iPHONE 4 - 32GB - BNIB - FIRMWARE 4.1 - JAILBREAK - eBay (item 270649257411 end time Oct-23-10 19:41:52 PDT)
Done. Sorry I forget to do that lol. Im usually not the one asking questions.
i like the white back but i keeping the black front on mine the white front is just to much for me so i sorta gave the 3g/3gs look. I ordered my white back last week should get her monday.
If they're gonna delay it so much, just cancel it
Can anyone from the forum please tell me how to put a picture on my avatar?
There is one on eBay right now...
? Apple iPhone 4 16GB White |UNLOCKED| 100% ORIGINAL ? - eBay (item 120633438648 end time Oct-15-10 20:08:14 PDT)
i got white iphone 4 bc ebay sells parts for u to do it.
My girlfriend just bought her new ip4 after she shattered her screen on her 3gs. We went to the apple store on monday and they were out of 16gb. I asked the apple associate when the white ip4 would be available and he adivsed in december. We then went to at&t and they were also out of 16g ip4's so she ended up buying a 32g. I asked the guy the same thing and he said he was unsure but then said "if i had to take a guess...it would be in early december because i think they might launch it for the holidays as the phone is white"
dont really see this happening but would be nice to see something different other than a black one all the time.
The iP4 is the first black iPhone I've bought and tbh I actually prefer it over the white iP4
Im willing to believe it, but I also believe I could have manually repaired all the home buttons by hand and still sold a few million already, whats taking so long? I like the black i4 much better.

great location and clean hotel. only downside is the pool is freezing and you have to pay extra for the safe and even the fridge ! the food was ok but nothing special. would not return to salou or this hotel.

If you want central and clean - go here.Posted Jul 1, 2013
Pros: Clean and central
Cons: Room at the back overlooked nightclub that was noisy and open to 6am.
Location: As close to everything as it gets.
Very clean, an army of cleaners on a daily basis. Attempt to get a room that doesn't look onto the hotel at the back as it has a night club (Snoopy's) under it and it stays open till 6am and was at times loud. Very close to all amenities and a great location for centre / beach is a stone's throw, 3 pools all good. Evening entertainment is dated and aimed more at older people.

This was as advertised and more. On my return to Salou, this is my hotel of choice,. We requested in advance for a double bed and got a twin room. We asked in advance for a room over looking the pool and was given a room over looking a wall and the neighbours had a lovely view of us sitting on the balcony. The meals were varied and they would appeal to a wide range of nationalities, and we found something every time. The staff were very helpful and the hotel was very tidy and the choice of different pools was great If we had the room as requested, I would be giving this hotel 10 out of 10 And its close, but not a gold medal this time

"I think it's gotten a bit much for him, all the dying," Arthur Darvill, who plays Rory, told reporters on a call to promote Saturday's Doctor Who episode, airing at 9/8c on BBC America. "I kept seeing it as a running joke. A lot of times it happens because he puts himself in the way of danger for other people. He's a hero, he's a bumbling hero. I have no idea if it's going to keep happening. I personally hope that Rory just stops dying."

Guest Post: What Happens "When the People Draw the Lines"?
By Raphael J. Sonenshein, Ph.D., Executive Director of the Pat Brown Institute of Public Affairs at Cal State Los Angeles
Back in 2008, California voters narrowly approved a ballot measure to turn the state's redistricting process upside down. Instead of Sacramento's incumbent elected officials (and sometimes judges) drawing the lines, the job would be handed over to a citizen commission. Two years later, the voters added congressional districts to the commission's charge. By 2011, the California Citizens Redistricting Commission was up and running.
The League of Women Voters of California and The James Irvine Foundation asked me to research and write an independent assessment of this new redistricting process. The result is the report issued this week, "When the People Draw the Lines."
I found that the citizen redistricting process was essentially successful. At the same time, it was clear that the commission faced some organizational obstacles that need to be corrected in time for the next citizen redistricting commission.

While exterior styling is quite low down on the list of priorities for most van buyers, Opel's bestseller is a good-looking machine.
Complementing Vivaro's new look are state-of-the-art technologies and many practical, innovative features, under the bonnet.
"The second generation Opel Vivaro distinguishes itself with its superb practicality and quality. After 13 successful years on the market, we wanted to make the all-new Vivaro even more attractive while raising the standard of its core capabilities," said Mark Adams, Opel Design Vice President, describing the design team's task.
"The new Vivaro showcases sculptural artistry and German precision with sweeping sculptural design accents, bold proportions and premium accents. This gives it a sharpened and more refined character, making it the ideal mobile business card."
Opel's second-generation Vivaro is due in Ireland this Autumn.

The comment, sure that's fair. Of course it turns out that he did nothing of the sort. Not even close. And while he started with a high percentage of women in key positions, the number eroded to a dismal 25% by the time he was done. What the liberals are pointing out is that our man Romney can't seem to utter a truthful word. It's clear he'll say anything thing at all to get elected. Yeah, I'm sure Obama does some of the same, and perhaps all politicians are scumbags, but Romney is setting a new bar for sleaze.

Tax Policy Changes and Ex-dividend Behavior: The Case of Sweden
AbstractThe purpose of the paper is to study how changes in the Swedish tax system have influenced stock prices and trading volumes around the ex-dividend day. The hypothesis that the ex-dividend price ratio is unaffected by the relatively large tax policy changes in Sweden cannot be rejected, and the tax clientele hypothesis is not supported by the data. On the other hand, the results are not all together supportive of the short-term trading hypothesis. For instance, the results do not confirm the predicted and previously documented positive relationship between abnormal volumes and dividend yields.

Amazon Theater
Ecuador: clashes at Quito protest over Yasuni
Indigenous and environmentalist protesters clashed with police in Ecuador Aug. 27, as a mobilization dubbed a zapateo (foot-stamping) against plans to open the Yasuni Amazon reserve to oil drilling was held in both Quito and Cuenca. Carlos Pérez, leader of the ECUARUNARI indigenous alliance, said police fired rubber bullets on protesters in Quito, leaving 12 hurt—claims denied by the Interior Ministry. At the capital's Plaza de la Independencia, protesters were confronted by an organized counter-demonstration made up of supporters of the ruling Alianza PAIS. After the march, protesters held a public assembly in the city's Plaza Bolívar, where they agreed to meet every Thursday outside the Environment Ministry in an ongiong campaign until their demands are met. The movement is demanding a consulta popular—public discussion and referendum—on the fate of Yasuni. Ecuador's National Assembly is currently considering President Rafael Correa's proposal to open oil blocs within the reserve. (El Universo, Guayaquil, Aug. 29; AFP, Aug. 28)
Brazil: farmers block Belo Monte to demand power
Some 150 farmers blocked the access road to one of the construction sites for the giant Belo Monte dam in Vitória do Xingu municipality in the northern Brazilian state of Pará on Aug. 20 to demand access to electricity. The farmers said Norte Energia S.A., the consortium in charge of the dam, was running electric lines past their homes for the construction but wasn't giving them access to the power. Some 300 families live in the area without access to electricity, according to Iury Paulino, a member of the Movement of Those Harmed by Dams (MAB). The residents were also demanding the construction of a bridge near the community of Volta Grande do Xingu.
Peru: oil spill threatens rainforest reserve
Indigenous leaders in Peru's northern Amazonian region of Loreto on Aug. 10 protested that a leak from Pluspetrol's oil operations at the exploitation bloc known as Lot 8X is causing contamination within the Pacaya Samiria National Reserve, with which the bloc overlaps. Alfonso López Tejada, president of the Cocoma Association for the Development and Conservation of San Pablo de Tipishca (ACODECOSPAT) said that the reserve is "every day more unprotected against oil spills." (RPP, Aug. 11; El Comercio, Lima, Aug. 10)
Ecuador: indigenous leaders get prison terms
On Aug. 12, a court in Ecuador's Amazonian city of Macas convicted indigenous leader Pedro Mashiant and lawmaker Pepe Acacho with the Pachakutik party on charges of "terrorism" and "sabotage" for their roles in a protest demonstration in 2009. They were each sentenced to 12 years, and each ordered to pay a fine of $4,000. The two pledged to appeal. "I believe I am innocent, and I believe I am being persecuted, but I will never go into hiding," said Acacho. "I will never flee, nor will I seek political asylum. The innocent do not run, it is the guilty who who flee from justice." Acacho added that he would take the case to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights if necessary. The Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador (CONAIE) issued a statement in support of the two men. (TeleAmazonas, Aug. 13; El Comercio, Quito, Aug. 12)
Ecuador opens Yasuni reserve to oil interests
Ecuador's President Rafael Correa announced Aug. 15 that he is abandoning plans for an ambitious internationally funded conservation program at Yasuni National Park, which called for international donors to compensate his government for keeping oil interests out of the reserve. "The world has failed us," Correa said in a televised address. "I have signed the executive decree for the liquidation of the Yasuni-ITT trust fund and with this, ended the initiative." Correa said the program had received only $13 million, a fraction of the $3.6 billion goal. He said he would immediately seek approval from the country's Legislative Assembly, where his alliance holds a majority, for opening the Ishpingo Tambocoha Titutini (ITT) bloc within the park to oil companies. Yasuni park is recognized as a UNESCO biosphere reserve.
Peru: Culture Ministry halts Camisea expansion
Peru's Vice-Ministry of Inter-Culturality (VMI) on July 12 issued a critical report temporarily blocking expansion of the country's biggest gas project and asserting that two "isolated" indigenous peoples living in the area could be made extinct if it goes ahead. The VMI report is a detailed review of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of the planned expansion of the Camisea project in the southeast Amazon, which was written by the operating company, Pluspetrol, together with UK consultancy Environmental Resources Management (ERM). Approval of the EIA is currently pending by Peru's Ministry of Energy (MEM). According to the VMI, the health, "traditional economic activities" and ways of life of the indigenous peoples in "initial contact" and "voluntary isolation" would be severely impacted and two of them, the Nanti and the Kirineri, could be made "extinct."
Brazil sends tanks to protect threatened tribe
Survival International says it has received reports that Brazil's military has launched a major ground operation against illegal logging around the land of the Awá, said the be the "Earth's most threatened tribe." Hundreds of soldiers, police officers and Environment Ministry special agents have flooded the area, backed up with tanks, helicopters and close to a hundred other vehicles, to halt the illegal deforestation which has already destroyed more than 30% of one of the Awá's traditional territories (in Maranhão state). Since the operation reportedly started at the end of June 2013, at least eight saw mills have been closed and other machinery has been confiscated and destroyed. The operation comes at a critical time for the Awá, one of the last nomadic hunter-gatherer tribes in the Brazilian Amazon, who are at risk of extinction if the destruction of their forest is not stopped as a matter of urgency.
Peru: demands emerge for 'plurinational state'
Vladimiro Huaroc, head of Peru's National Office of Dialogue and Sustainability (ONDS), weighed in on the controversy over the country's new Prior Consultation Law June 14, in comments published in the official newspaper El Peruano. "There are many sectors that want the government to execute these actions as soon as possible, and we do not understand the trouble," he wrote. Seeming to address assertions by President Ollanta Humala that the law should not apply in the country's sierras, Huaroc invoked Peru's responsibilities under ILO Convention 169 and stated, "Probably, there are sectors that are not adequately informed" about the government's responsibilities to indigenous communities. "Prior consultation means informing the population; the Executive must do everything possible so that communities know in detail the economic processes that will be realized."

Purchased from the Market Basket in Brookfield, WI. Pours a light yellow or "blonde" color with a finger of white foam. Sweet malt and citrus aroma. Faint hop flavor and minimal bitterness. Light bodied and crisp, just a little bit of a dry finish. I wish I had some wings to go with this beer for which their website claims the beer was invented. This is not a bad beer, just not that great.

Crystal Clear BLonde body with a viggorus head that quickly dissapates into a light dusting. Crisp and cracker like malt profile with a slight citric hoppyness in the end. This blonde is light and frilly, you get some wheat and a bit of hops. It seems balanced and simple. What you would drink if you didn't want to think about it. Pair with a spring roll or a grilled walleye.

I ordered this beer because I'd never heard of it and they had it on tap at the Transfer Pizzeria on Mitchell in Milwaukee alongside some Lakefront taps. From the name, i was expecting a blonde ale and hopeful to get some nice fruitiness from this beer, and was a bit disappointed by what I got. A blonde lager, offering not much flavor other than some tinges of metallic. Not bad, but flavor-wise reminded me a bit of a Kolsch. OK, but not really recommendable nor worthy of any serious searching.
Appearance was a slightly hazy blond. Aroma was non-existent. Flavor was faintly (if I used my imagination) malty, but offered more metallicness than anything else. Mouthfeel was pretty thin.
