In was recently reminded of one of my favourite books from my late teens – Aldous Huxley's "Ape and Essence" (1948).
Here are some quotes:
Vertical stripes, horizontal stripes, noughts and crosses, eagles and hammers. Mere arbitrary signs. But every reality to which a sign has been attached is thereby made subject to its sign. Goswami and Ali used to live in peace. But I got a flag, you got a flag, all Baboon-God's children got flags; and because of the flags it immediately became right and proper for the one with the foreskin to disembowel the one without a foreskin, and for the circumcised to shoot the uncircumcised, rape his wife and roast his children over slow fires.
"Love casts out fear; but conversely fear casts out love. And not only love. Fear also casts out intelligence, casts out goodness, casts out all thought of beauty and truth. What remains in the bum or studiedly jocular desperation of one who is aware of the obscene Presence in the corner of the room and knows that the door is locked, that there aren't any windows. And now the thing bears down on him. He feels a hand on his sleeve, smells a stinking breath, as the executioner's assistant leans almost amorously toward him. "Your turn next, brother. Kindly step this way." And in an instant his quiet terror is transmuted into a frenzy as violent as it is futile. There is no longer a man among his fellow men, no longer a rational being speaking articulately to other rational beings; there is only a lacerated animal, screaming and struggling in the trap. For in the end fear casts out even a man's humanity. And fear, my good friends, fear is the very basis and foundation of modern life. Fear of the much touted technology which, while it raises out standard of living, increases the probability of our violently dying. Fear of the science which takes away the one hand even more than what it so profusely gives with the other. Fear of the demonstrably fatal institutions for while, in our suicidal loyalty, we are ready to kill and die. Fear of the Great Men whom we have raised, and by popular acclaim, to a power which they use, inevitably, to murder and enslave us. Fear of the war we don't want yet do everything we can to bring about."
"The leech's kiss, the squid's embrace,
The prurient ape's defiling touch:
And do you like the human race?
No, not much.

Last month (January 2014) Clay Shirky gave a talk at Microsoft (50mins with Q&A). He took the opportunity to float some new ideas he has about Culture Cones, a metaphor he has borrowed from the physics concept of light cones.
He starts the description of the concept at 12m 45s into the talk.
Imagine two observers. The first is one light year from a supernova, the other is two light years away from the supernova. If the supernova explodes with a flash, the event will "happen" one year later to the first observer and two years later to the second observer. One sees it a year before the other.
So it is with cultural events and memes. Culture cones move through networks like light cones through space.
Shirky asks, "When was the first time you heard about bitcoin?", a culture cone moving though society right now.
Less connected people experience these events much later. They just saw the supernova flash no matter how long ago it actually happened. Technologists have this all the time when their family eventually ask them about some new thing that is actually old, "So what's this Tor thing?"
It's worth watching the talk. He even mentions Boyd's and OODA loops.

Hi guys,
Need some input on a new project we're having done.
Basically we're having the network ripped out and renewed with brand spanking cabling and i need some advice on fibre switches.
So far we have a fibre run between point Y in the office to point X at the other end of the building with copper from the cab at Y to C1 to C7(i know i put 67 on the drawing!) and we have copper from point X to C8-C11.
We're now adding a couple more cabs to improve performance so i want to go from point Y to point Z with fibre aswell as point Y to point X and then add another fibre run from point X to point W.
I need some advice on which fibre switches i need to be using, the current Fibre switches are at point X and Y but they're ancient HUBS! and need replacing.
Then point Z will feed C1-C7
point X will feed C8-C11
and point W will feed the machines up there.
it looks as though i will need switches with 2 sets of fibre connections AND some ethernet so i can run to other switches in the cabs at point W X Y and Z
does this all make sense?!
Any input would be greatly appreciated!
p.s dotted line represents gap of 50 metres and wiggly line is to a seperate building (they're going to dig a trench and run the fibre from X to W

A bit of advise needed,been training mms for 5 years,and have always done a 16 week cycle of 750mg of EQ,450mg of test blend,and heard through the grape vine mast e,is great for added endurance,anyone on here tried it?
If so,what dose?
morning fella's,a little advice needed.
i would like to run 1000mg of EQ pw and 600mg of test E pw.Run for 20 weeks with 12.5mg aromasin pd
any advice greatly reiceved,this will be my 8th cycle...
if i ran tren ace 75mg eod and 600mg EQ pw,would the side effect of tren's shortness of breathe doing martial arts training be balanced out with Eq's ability to create more oxygenated blood and stamia,just an idea,any feedback?..
just started a test prop cycle 100mg EOD,I tend to bloat,so I've got some 1mg adex.
Now i'm a little confused how to run the adex,1mg EOD or 1mg E3D or 1mg E4D?
They are tiny little pills,and almost impossible to cut properly...
been using adex 1mg E3D on my test prop cycle,but since I've been taking adex i have had a constant very low mood/mild depression.
could the adex be the cause?
If so shall i switch to nolva?..

Back in the studio...
I've returned to the studio this week to work on some fall designs so I can switch over my inventory at the end of this month. One of my favorite things to create is big one-of-kind statement pieces. I keep a few of these on display at each shop. This necklace is a mix of styles; Bohemian & Tribal.
So tell me, would you wear this?

The price of gold rallied in during last week. Moreover, on a monthly scale gold is up by 3.7%. The recent disappointing non-farm payroll report may have lowered the odds of the FOMC tapering further its asset purchase program in the near future. Will gold continue to rally in the near future? Let's analyze the recent news that may affect gold (NYSEARCA:GLD).
Despite the recent rise in gold price, the demand for leading precious metals' ETF including iShares Gold Trust (NYSEARCA:IAU) and SPDR Gold continued to diminish. During January, SPDR Gold's holdings declined by 1%. The minutes of the December FOMC meeting revealed the reservations of FOMC members in further tapering QE3. Let's take a closer look at this subject.
The FOMC and gold
Back in December, the FOMC reduced its asset purchase program by $10 billion. This mini-taper seems to have had an immediate effect on the markets including gold price and long term securities - two assets that are considered safe haven investments. The chart below shows the movement of gold price and U.S 10 year treasury yields.
As you can see, the news of the mini-taper seems to have dragged down gold price and pull up long term yields. This may also imply the demand for safe haven investments have declined as investors are turning towards riskier investments such as equities. But the reaction didn't last long; since then, long term yields have declined and gold price has rallied. This could imply that even if the FOMC continues to taper QE3 in the near future, it won't have a long term adverse effect on gold price.
The minutes of the FOMC meeting also showed that FOMC members are still concerned about the progress of the U.S economy including the labor market. The recent non-farm payroll report was disappointing: only 74,000 jobs were added. This only further reinforces several FOMC members' reservations about the recovery of the U.S labor market.
The table bellow shows the changes in the non-farm employment, the reaction of gold price and USD/yen currency pair and the correlations among them.
The table shows that when the non-farm employment rise by more than 150,000 and is higher than expected, the price of gold tends to fall and the US dollar tends to strengthen against the Japanese yen. These correlations are mid-strong but don't always hold up. Nonetheless, this means, all things equal, if the upcoming non-farm payroll continues to show fewer than 120,000-150,000 added jobs, this could reduce the odds of another announcement by the FOMC of cutting down its asset purchase program and pressure up gold price.
Final note
The recent developments reduced the chances of the FOMC to taper QE3 in the near future including in the upcoming FOMC meeting at the end of the month. Moreover, such mini-tapers are likely to have little short term effect on the price of gold. Therefore, I think gold could continue to slowly rally in the near future.

MLB Could Exert Greater Influence Over D-I Baseball As Part Of Potential NCAA Partnership
Published May 9, 2012
OMAHA STILL BOOKED FOR JUNE: In Omaha, Steven Pivovar notes a "possible shift in when the College World Series is played is one of the discussion points" in the NCAA-MLB talks. NCAA VP/Baseball & Football Dennis Poppe said yesterday that he "doubts the NCAA would ever agree to any drastic changes that would see the event played earlier in the year." Poppe: "There are a lot of moving parts in this discussion, and we're looking at all the options in regard to what's best for the parties involved. But changing the dates of the College World Series is something I just don't see happening." Poppe said that the NCAA "first began talking with representatives of MLB and the players union in 2008." He noted that former MLBPA Exec Dir Donald Fehr and late NCAA President Myles Brand were "catalysts of the talks" (Omaha WORLD-HERALD, 5/9).

Bolton striker passed fit to face Seagulls
Updated 6:03pm Saturday 15th March 2014 in Sport By Brian Owen
Bolton striker Joe Mason has been passed fit to face Albion today.
And that means Wanderers boss Dougie Freedman is set to go 4-4-2 against the Seagulls.
Mason missed the midweek 0-0 draw at Derby due to illness.
He was rated 50-50 as late as yesterday but starts today's clash at the Reebok alongside Lukas Jutkiewicz.
Mason, who was interesting Albion as they searched for a striker in January, has scored once in each of the last three appearances of his loan stint from Cardiff.
His return is one four changes to the team which earned a good point at Derby.
Out go centre-back Zat Knight, widemen Neil Danns and Mark Davies and attacking midfielder Andre Moritz, They are replaced respectively by David Wheater, Liam Trotter, Chung-Yong Lee and Mason.
Wanderers are unbeaten in their last five games, including a 4-0 derby thrashing of Blackburn in their most recent home match.
They have not lost a game anywhere or conceded a home goal since Sam Vokes' winner here for Burnley last month.
Bolton: Bogdan; Baptiste, Wheater, Ream, Hutton; Trotter, Spearing, Medo, Lee; Mason, Jutkiewicz. Subs: Lee-Barrett, Knight, Threlkeld, Vela, Mortiz, Danns, Hall.

Often cited as the founding father of gangsta rap, Ice-T has also crafted a successful film career from his hardened street persona. Despite the fact that his early roles stuck closely to his public image as a thuggish West Coast pimp, T has since proved both his versatility and his sense of humor by appearing as everything from a mutant kangaroo (Tank Girl [1995]) to, in a surprisingly effective about-face, a police officer (New Jack City [1991]). Born Tracy Marrow in Newark, NJ, in 1958 and later adapting his better-known persona as a tribute to pimp-turned-author Iceberg Slim, T moved to Califorina following the death of his parents in a car accident. Ice-T soon began to develop an obsession with rap music, and after serving a two-year stint in the Army, he began recording and appeared in the films Breakin' and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo (both 1984). Following a near death auto accident in 1986, T devoted his life to music and released his debut album, {^Rhyme Pays}, the following year. T gained positive accolades for his first major film role in 1991's New Jack City, in which he played a dedicated police officer, and the irony was not lost on fans the following year when he caused a stir with a song entitled "Cop Killer." After sticking close to the streets in Ricochet (1991), Trespass (1992), and Surviving the Game (1994), T took a sci-fi detour with Tank Girl and Johnny Mnemonic (both 1995). Generally appearing in straight-to-video schlock from the mid-'90s on, Ice-T could be seen as a naval pilot in Stealth Fighter (1999) and stealing a magic flute from a vengeful green meanie in Leprechaun in the Hood (2000). Though his appearances in such films grew nearly too frequent to count, T occasionally appeared in such theatrical releases as 3000 Miles to Graceland and Abel Ferrara's 'R Xmas (both 2001). After offering curious insight into the life of a pimp in the documentary Pimps Up, Ho's Down, T continued to expound on the life of a hustler in Pimpin' 101 (2003). He also took on a recurring role on the Law & Order spin-off Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and later joined the cast as a regular in the show's second season, soon becoming a popular fixture on prime time TV. T would also enjoy success on the reality circuit, starring in the candid reality show Ice Loves Coco with his wife, Nicole Austin. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Iowans will need to work four more days this year than they did in 2013 to collectively earn enough income to pay off their total federal, state, and local tax bill.
Iowa "Tax Freedom Day" falls on Sunday, April 13, according to the nonpartisan Tax Foundation, making it the 18th state to reach the annual milestone. National Tax Freedom Day falls on April 21, three days later than last year.
The national Tax Freedom Day is three days later than last year primarily due to the continuing economic recovery, which will increase federal tax revenue collected through the corporate, payroll, and individual income tax.
Tax Foundation Economist Kyle Pomerleau said Tax Freedom Day is a significant date for taxpayers because it represents how long Americans as a whole have to work in order to pay the nation�s tax burden.
"Arguments can be made for why the collective tax bill is too high or too low, but in order to have an honest discussion, it�s important to understand where we stand," Pomerleau said. "Tax Freedom Day gives us a vivid representation of how much we pay for the goods and services provided by governments at all levels."
Pomerleau said the total tax burden borne by residents of different states varies considerably due to differing state tax policies and the progressive federal tax system. States with a combination of higher income and higher taxes�mark Tax Freedom Day later.
The Tax Foundation calculated that Americans will spend more on taxes in 2014 than they will on food, clothing, and housing. To pay off their income taxes, Americans will work for 42 days and property taxes will require 11 days of work.
Americans will pay $3 trillion in federal taxes and $1.5 trillion in state and local taxes, for a total bill of more than $4.5 trillion, or 30.2 percent of the nation�s income.
If you include annual federal borrowing, which represents future taxes owed, Tax Freedom Day would occur on May 6. The latest ever Tax Freedom Day that included the federal defici occurred during World War II on May 21, 1945.Since 2002, federal expenses have exceeded federal revenues, with the budget deficit exceeding $1 trillion annually from 2009 to 2012 and over $800 billion in 2013. In 2014, the deficit will continue to decline to $636 billion.

Research Shows Acupressure Reduces Chronic Neck Pain
By Massage Therapy Foundation Contributor
Contributed By Derek R. Austin, MS, CMT, April Neufeld, BS, LMT, NCTMB, Sandra K. Anderson, BA, LMT, ABT
In this month's Massage Therapy Foundation Research Column, we are taking a critical look at the effects of acupressure.Widely accepted in Japan, many Americans are unaware of the many benefits of manual acupressure. It is a noninvasive technique in which, instead of needles, the practitioner's fingers press on traditional acupuncture points. Acupressure has been shown to be calming, relieve pain and induce relaxation.
Lead author Dr. Takako Matsubara, PT, an Associate Professor in the Department of Rehabilitation at Nihon Fukushi University, Japan, and his colleagues studied an area of interest to most massage therapists - chronic neck pain. Their research article, "Comparative Effects of Acupressure at Local and Distal Acupuncture Points on Pain Conditions and Autonomic Function in Females with Chronic Neck Pain" was published in the journal Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine.
Matsubara and colleagues randomly allocated 33 female subjects (n=33) to three groups. Group one subjects received acupressure at three tender points consistent with local acupuncture points (LP) "Jianjing" (GB 21), "Jianwaishu" (SI 14), and "Jianzhongshu" (SI 15). These local acupuncture points align with tender points in the trapezius muscle with acupressure (see Figure 1). Group two subjects received acupressure at three distal acupuncture points (DP); in this study, distal meant points distal to the location of the neck pain. These points were "Hegu" (LI 4), "Shousanli" (LI 10), and "Quchi" (LI 11). These distal acupuncture points are traditionally associated with neck-shoulder-arm disorders in Chinese/Japanese traditional medicine (see Figure 2). A third group, termed the control, received no acupressure at all.
Subjects were assessed about pain intensity using a verbal rating scale (VRS); the intensity of neck pain or stiffness was evaluated on a numerical scale from 0 to 3 (0: no pain, 1: mild pain, 2: moderate pain, and 3: severe pain). Subjects were also assessed about pain-related disability using the Neck Disability Index (NDI), pain-related anxiety using State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-I (STAI-I), and about muscle hardness (MH) on bilateral trapezius muscles. Pain-associated stress was assessed using salivary alpha-amylase (sAA) activity and heart rate variability (HRV) to determine parasympathetic and sympathetic activity. Low electrical frequency fluctuations in heart are indicators of sympathetic and parasympathetic activity, and high electrical frequency fluctuations are indicators of parasympathetic activity.
Parasympathetic and sympathetic activity in the test subjects was measured because several previous reports showed that the effects of acupuncture and acupressure are due to influencing the autonomic nervous system. The acupressure treatment lasted about ten minutes per session. Three sets of acupressure were applied with thumb pressure in a rotary fashion at 20-25 cycles per minutes for 30 seconds on each of the three assigned local or distal points on the right side of the subject's body; the same procedure was followed on the left side. The same investigator applied acupressure in all cases.
There were no significant differences among the three groups pre-treatment. There were no measured changes in pain, stiffness or autonomic activity in the control group throughout the study. However, in the LP and DP groups, the VRS, STAI-I, and MH significantly decreased immediately following treatment, indicating a decrease in pain and stiffness. The next day, the NDI was significantly lower compared with pre-treatment in the LP and DP groups. The subjects' heart rates significantly decreased and high frequency component of HRV significantly increased, indicating a parasympathetic autonomic response, only in the LP group.
This study is notable for its use of both local and distal acupressure therapy. Both appear to be effective in relieving chronic neck pain in only a single ten minute session, with significant next-day effects on the NDI, a validated measure of pain-related disability. Interestingly, reduction in pain in the LP and DP groups as assessed by the VRS were not significantly different from the control group at the one day follow-up.
This study by Matsubara et al., is limited by the lack of longer term follow-up beyond one day, the small sample size of 11 participants per group, and the inherent inability to blind the practitioner and participants from knowing which treatment was administered or received. As a primary measurement of pain intensity, the authors could have used a 10-cm visual analog scale (VAS), which may have been more sensitive to differences between groups at the one-day follow-up. Also, the addition of a "sham acupressure" group would have helped rule out the possibility of placebo effects or effects stemming from touch, not acupressure per se. Finally, the sample used in this study only included women; men might respond differently to acupressure applied to the points used in this study.
In conclusion, acupressure to both local and distal acupuncture points significantly reduces chronic neck pain in this randomized, controlled trial. The researchers point out that most clinicians combine local and distal acupuncture points in clinical practice, and they suggest that further research should assess combinatorial effects. This Open Access journal article is freely available in PubMedCentral at www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2952311/.
Author's Note: For additional research about accupressure, please see Robinson et al.'s 2011 Open Access review entitled, "The Evidence for Shiatsu: a systematic review of Shiatsu and acupressure" published in BMC Complementary & Alternative Medicine and available at www.biomedcentral.com.proxy.library.vcu.edu/1472-6882/11/88.

Its not easy to fool around when two gold Buddhas are staring at you, but the owner of Sutra wants to put you in the mood. Ariel Palitz has revamped the Flat as a sultry playground where youre seduced with incense and warm amber lighting. A downstairs cave is preserved as an old Turkish gentlemens club, and an upstairs bar and billiards room is lined with red velvet banquettes and bordello-style lamps. You can nibble on chocolate-covered strawberries and sip concoctions like the Sutra Martini, with vodka, vermouth and crème de cassis. Pace yourself, though: Lines for the bathroom might be long, as Palitz has papered the walls with pictures of Kama Sutra positions.

Rated 5 out of 5 by mrDonrag A nice welcome after a long trip After traveling almost 24 hours my wife and I were pleased by the friendly welcome we received by the front desk at midnight. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. When we awoke the next morning we were amazed by the beautiful ocean view that greeted us from our lanai. WAY TO GO MAUI SHERATON! January 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ECS67 Staff At the bell/valet desk Virgillo Seatriz and his staff were great. Black Rock staff was all great ESPECIALLY our waiter on 12/5/2013 for breakfast. We ordered a non-fat latte and your machine was down and was during our whole stay so he went upstairs without us asking and got the drinks. So nice. Gave extra $10 tip December 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by JulieR A Special Stay We celebrated a milestone birthday at the Sheraton, and the hotel manager went out of his way to make our stay extra special. We received a number of gifts (chocolate strawberries, pool amenities, etc.) and the Platinum upgrades and amenities were great! We look forward to our next stay there. Mahalo! December 10, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by SMF426 a real surprise this was a sleeper and I had modest expecations that were excelled. Our ocean front room stunned us. The only tough part here is that eerything is quite a walk and the places to eat are affected by wind and rain- the staff was fine but not wonderful. they were polite but nevere quite seemd to go the extra mile. February 25, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by YongFeng Worst experience in all SPG hotels Good at location and view. But I was very disappoint for a terrible Front desk man. And a worse call center and complain handle way. I've forgotten the name of that Guy. He was very un-friendly when my arrival and checking-in(around 12:00 pm). He wouldn't answer any questions I asked. And on the 2nd night, I found that I left my glasses in the restaurant of this hotel. When I went to front desk to seek help. He was still very unfriendly and NO HELP! Finally I went to the restaurant and another staff David help me to find my glass out. The most bad thing is, I complained this to the call center of SPG, again and again, lot of international telephone fee, no result and sound feedback.!!!! March 5, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by deedee123 would've been an excellent rating but... My stay would've been excellent but there was an incident 1 night when the fire alarm went off at 1:30am which was very inconvenient as everybody had to leave their room and stand outside not knowing what was going on. No employees came by to let us know what was going on. The speaker was so faint we couldn't hear what was being said. Also another night, we waited for sunset to see the cliff dive at Black Rock but that did not happen and no reason was given. Other than those incidents, the hotel was very nice, staff was friendly, self parking was awesome for people with car rental and is walking distance to Whaler's Village. Also there was free shuttle to other Starwood locations and to Front Street. June 21, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by lehlen lin A big thank you to Evelyn who provided the room upgrade to to ocean front which was excellent service & room. We were very pleased/happy with our stay at the Sheraton. SPG, Sherley who greeted us at the desk did an excellent job of welcoming us and assisting us with the SPG gifts. February 25, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by alisonian50 Locationx3 Sheraton Maui, located on the Black Rock just northwest of Lahaina is a fantastic vacation property.

Rated 5 out of 5 by rjsi Awesome views!!! Loved staying at this hotel. We were treated well when we thought the travel agency booked a queen bed. They made the change and let us pay for the upgrade and it was well worth it! There is no other place that I would stay if I ever have the chance to return to Maui. June 1, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by lovetogolf aloha paradise Very accommodating staff throughout the resort and a wonderful experience. The Sheraton is perfectly located to everything, yet feels peaceful and restorative. I've been to this property several times and can't wait to return. December 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by 1stVisit1974 One of the best on Ka'anapali Sheraton at Black Rock has always been a favorite of ours. The grounds are extremely well kept, and the staff is friendly and works very hard tom make sure your stay is enjoyable. This was our 8th trip to the Sheraton and it was as pleasant as the first. February 19, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by JamesF Best Resort on the Planet! We are long time SPG members and this resort is hands down the best we have ever stayed in. The place is beautiful inside and out.

From the excellent location and snorkeling at black rock to the outstanding staff and the beautiful pool it is awesome. A special thank you to Evelyn at the front desk. She made us feel very special.

Rated 5 out of 5 by justkath great vacation Had a nice room in building 6 which was unexpected. Total peace and quiet away form the pool and public areas. Watching whales breach was an additional treat. Nearby snorkeling was just what we wanted. December 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by HI4me93 Great time in Maui The resort room and grounds are beautiful. We had great views of Lanai and Moloka'i. The beach was the best one I've been on in Hawaii. Excellent snorkeling with lots of fish and turtels. December 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by NutsforHawaii The absolute most accommodating hotel ever! From the time we pulled up to the circle at the lobby we were treated like family, friends, best customers. The employees made us feel so welcome and special and appreciated we did not want to leave. It was the greatest! February 25, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by mangoWoman Enjoyable We spent 4 nights in a Deluxe Ocean View category room. No special treatment as SPG Gold other than early check-in; our room was a standard Deluxe Ocean View as far as I could tell. The room featured a very comfortable bed, mini-fridge, flat screen TV, and safe. Internet is via a cable (no wireless) that was inconveniently placed next to a nightstand, not on the desk where one would expect to set up a laptop. Also, one of the main light switches near the entrance would shut off power to half the room, which we found very odd. The grounds are wonderful and spacious and did not seem crowded. Beach is very nice and snorkeling around Black Rock was excellent. Service poolside was good. Our rate included a breakfast buffet which was decent, but could have used more variety, esp. in the fresh fruit selection (no Lilikoi). The menu price for the breakfast was $29 per person which I would not recommend paying, but if you can get it included in your hotel rate for a nominal surcharge I would recommend. The restaurant seating was open air next to some pools and was very nice. October 24, 2011
Rated 1 out of 5 by Sridhar Bad staff - especially at the reception This hotel does not recognize you if you book the room through a 3rd party website despite you being a SPG gold member. They want you to book directly on their website for you to get any benefits. August 11, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by MauiLover1 Good Hotel but doesn't meet Sheraton Standards First off, the hotel staff was really friendly and trying to be as accommodating as possible. However, the facility clearly needs a refresh. Old carpet everywhere and it feels like it has never been touched after it opened.; feels like the top of the line circa 1985. We have been asked to upgrade the room for an additional 25$ to get a deluxe Ocean View but other than being at the very last building (the far end of the hotel) the view wasn't better than the standard ocean view. For everything we wanted to do and everywhere we went there was an absurd extra expense. The internet, for which we paid in the resort fee, was really slow and barely useable. After talking to the reception they recommended that we pay an additional fee of 16$ for a faster connection. I am a Gold member of SPG but apparently it didn't show up in the reservation system and therefore didn't get any of the benefits. I stayed at another SPG property the week before where I was properly recognized as a Gold member. All in all, a bit disappointing and the first answer the staff was giving us at the reception was: you can get a better deal by paying more. December 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by randyp22 Sheraton Kaanapali Hotel was great. Great views of the beach and ocean. Short walking distance to Whalers Village for dining, shopping, and water actives. We'll be back. December 10, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Ono4 pretty unhappy i made the reservation for my daughter to stay one night prior to checking into our westin villa condos. i told the person making the reservation it would be my daughter using the room. when she arrived there was no record and the check in people were not really very friendly nor understanding. they begrugingly said "well we will honor it this time " not saying whether if they didnt honor it they would not have allowed her to check in. i got on the phone with her but they didnt want to talk to me . As a platinum member this is not what i have come to expect from your orgainzation. i do not understand the issue and want someone to call me to explain just what the big deal is about my family using the rooms that i paid for .

The Institute for Global Labour and Human Rights (IGLH) has put pressure on General Motors CEO Daniel F. Akerson to immediately intervene with local management at the Halol plant in India where hundreds of workers have gone on strike since March 16.
The factory workers are paid just 47 to 92 cents an hour and allegedly suffer from spinal cord injuries due to inhumane and unsafe working conditions. Halol's management is also accused of violating the Provident Fund Act and regulations outlined in the Industrial Safety and Health Act.
"When companies like General Motors went global, they told the American people that by their example they would be the best human and workers' rights ambassadors, raising standards across the global economy," the institute said. "It is time for General Motors to act."
The Halol GM factory produces the Chevrolet Cruze, Aveo, Tavera and Optra line of vehicles.
The American Chamber of Commerce in India, an association of US businesses operating in the country, has asked the local government to intervene and put an end to the strike.
"The unrest is of great concern," Executive Director Ajay Singha told The Indian Express. "We would like to know to what extent this can be controlled by the government and how it tackles the labor unions and protesters."
The Hindustan Times reported that the strike had caused production to drop to 70 cars a day against the factory's peak capacity of 190 cars. Halol's management has refused to negotiate with the workers, instead threatening to fire them.

Expelled and At-Risk Students Services (EARSS) has partnered with Loveland community volunteers, Colorado State University and the University of Northern Colorado students for the new Check and Connect Mentorship initiative. As we come to a close we want to celebrate that we have at least 1-2 mentors in each secondary school.
Check and Connect Mentorship is a targeted intervention intended to help support and mentor our At-Risk youth grades 6-12 in Thompson School District during school hours. An important focus of Check and Connect Mentorship is the shift from preventing negative outcomes (dropout, suspension, office referrals) to promoting positive outcomes (general student support, school success and school completion). Check and Connect mentorship is an intervention designed to enhance student engagement at school and with learning.
TSD's mentorship initiative has promoted student engagement by providing persistent support to boost academic, behavior, and expectations for underachieving and disengaged students. A volunteer mentor works with students and partners with families by regularly checking their educational and social progress to enhance the student's connection to school-home.
What are the four components?
· A mentor keeps education moving forward
· A mentor systematically monitors (the "check" component)
· A mentor has a timely and individualized intervention (the "connect" component)

I updated my list of patches for 2.6.10.
Stephen sent me a list of patches for stir4200. I also found
that the LSAP allocation in IrLMP was totally broken, and fixed
that. This last change may upset people doing weird things with LSAPs,
but at least it's no longer possible to start two server sockets using
the same LSAP.
Thanks to my VIA testers, the VIA patch will be part of my
next update.
If you have other patches, now is a good time to send them,
otherwise they will miss my next updates to Linus.
Have fun...

Ford's visit to China in 1975 caused much worry in Tokyotags: China, Japan, Gerald Ford
Prime Minister Takeo Miki conveyed concerns over U.S. President Gerald R. Ford's planned visit to China in late 1975 during a meeting the month before, indicating worry that Washington was developing a closer relationship with Beijing, according to documents declassified Wednesday.
"We hope there will be no shocking consequences of the visit to China," Miki told Ford during a meeting on the sidelines of a Group of Six — the first summit of what today is the Group of Eight leading countries — in Rambouillet, France, in November 1975, the documents show....

Census experts
Three professors are available to talk about the proposed changes to the Canadian census.
School of Business professor John Pliniussen is available to discuss the government's decision to make the long-form census voluntary from a business perspective.
"The government's census gamble is a huge business blunder. Abandoning the mandatory long form census is short-sighted and will cost jobs and waste millions of dollars. Both the process of deciding to use the questionnaire and the questionnaire itself are flawed," says Professor Pliniussen, who specializes in marketing.
Sociology professor David Murakami Wood is available to talk about the long-form census debate and whether or not the census is an invasion of privacy as some critics claim.
"One only has to glance at the history of government data collection and its role in discrimination to see that that one can be far too blase about the 'impossibility' of states misusing statistics – race in particular. Examples abound, from the Holocaust of the 1940s to the genocide in Rwanda in the 1990s," says Prof. Murakami Wood, whose research interest includes the politics and ethics of surveillance. "However, just because the census is a form of coercive state surveillance, which has the potential for misuse, it does not necessarily make it wrong. The whole way in which privacy has been discussed is a red herring. We need to reaffirm a commitment to privacy alongside other collective social values not in opposition to them. We need privacy and we need the census."
Prof. Murakami Wood is a member of The Surveillance Studies Centre at Queen's University and is also managing editor of Surveillance & Society, the international journal of surveillance studies.
School of Urban and Regional Planning professor Andrejs Skaburskis is available to talk about the Conservatives government's plan to make the long form of the 2011 Census voluntary.
"This will have negative consequences for people involved in government policy and Canadians in general. The voluntary nature of the response will lead to major biases being introduced into the only comprehensive data source Canada has that help officials understand and plan for the future – everything from predicting future housing and energy demands to market analysis of a broad range of manufacturing and retail sectors," says Professor Skaburskis, who jokes he has spent more time with Census data over than past 25 years than with his wife.
"A voluntary long-form census would leave a black mark on Canadian history. Twenty, 30, and a 100 years from now people will wonder how supposedly educated people could have allowed such a change in the 2011 census."
