À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
Catching sight of the gleaming metropolis of Dubai, it is difficult to believe that barely 30 years ago it was a little more than a desert-strewn wilderness where nomadic tribes roamed the sands and a cluster of settlers crowded around the banks of Dubai Creek.
On this half-day excursion, explore modern Dubai, where the old fort and ancient houses stand in stark contrast to the uniquely designed high-rise steel and glass buildings. Begin with a photo stop at the dazzling luxury hotel, Burj Al Arab, designed to resemble a billowing sail and dominating the Dubai coastline. The Jumeirah Mosque, an impressive example of Islamic architecture with its two towering minarets, is your next photo opportunity. Built in the medieval Fatimid tradition, this stone mosque is one of the largest sacred structures in Dubai. The Al Bastakiya district is next, with its narrow lanes and tall wind-towers, built to catch a breeze and naturally cool the houses during the summer heat. Within this maze of limestone and coral dwellings built by Iranian merchants, enjoy a tantalizing glimpse of the old Dubai.
A visit to the Dubai Museum, located in the 200-year-old Fort Fahidi, is your next stop. Opened in 1971, the museum houses a treasure trove of local antiquities, preserving the emirate's history and traditions. Some of the exhibits contain artifacts that date back from the times of pearl diving and long before the discovery of oil.
Next is a photo stop at the beautifully restored former residence of Sheikh Saeed al Maktoum, ruler of Dubai until 1958, followed by a visit to the Gold and Spice Souqs. Take in the fragrance of exotic spices, sharpen your bargaining skills and be enticed by the glittering displays of gold jewelry, before returning to the ship.
Please note: This tour includes approximately 1 hour of walking and/or standing, and is not considered suitable for wheelchair guests. Those with mobility concerns are cautioned to evaluate their personal level of ability and stamina. Hats and comfortable walking shoes are recommended and out of respect for local customs, clothing must cover your knees and arms.

Summer Phones with i wireless.
Question by : have you ever heard of i wireless cell phone plans from kroger?
have you ever heard of i wireless cell phone plans from kroger?
Very best answer:
Answer by luvbluesclues2007
I perform for Kroger, and my boyfriend has an i-wireless phone. What concerns did you have about it?
Add your own answer in the comments!
I've been perfectly happy with my "princess" phone (my daughters are all about Disney princesses and with the pink color and the flower design, it is officially the princess phone.) I've never had a problem using it as a phone. It also has web access, can check my FB, text easily. My husband hates it because it has no "real" buttons but only virtual buttons on the touch screen. However, that's never bothered me. I'm perfectly happy with this phone.
First of all this phone is horrible.
The phone doesn't ring all the time. The alarm doesn't go off which sometimes has caused me to wake up late in the a.m. (I've been using cell phone alarms since 2002)and this is the only phone that has caused so much stress in my life. Sometimes I don't get text/pic mail until literally 2 wks later (It's happened 2x in a 1 yr.)I'm afraid to turn my ringer off and just put the phone on vibrate bc I think the ringer may not work lol!
The touch screen is a joke as well.
The only thing I like about the phone is the email. I can check my email very easily but it doesn't refresh easily so that's kind of annoying.
I recommend this phone for children under the age of 8. A teenager would even get sick of this phone.
I'm eligible for my upgrade (it's been a yr) and all I can say is "Adios Amigos."
This phone is horrible. I "upgraded" from my LG Rumor and immediately regretted the decision. The only thing I like about this phone is the color and ability to easily see all the messages from a person without having to switch back and forth between inbox and sent messages. The camera on this phone is just ok and it doesn't take video which is disappointing especially considering all the current technology capabilities. The touchscreen is often unresponsive… unless the phone is in your pocket and you don't actually want to send a text or call someone. The screen also scratches very easily. I was unhappy to discover that there is no voice memo function on this phone. The keyboard is nice because it is quiet and large enough to easily type on, but after having the Rumor for over 2 years I often try to slide the keyboard out the wrong way. I would not recommend this phone to a friend or anyone else for that matter.
i had i wireless but i couldn't afford since i would spend my minutes quickly but that was when it first came out now i can but i'm not going to switch unless they get 4g, it would be cool and i'm sure that they would have great service since i did when i was with them.
are long distance call free or is it extra

People often say that Kobe Bryant has no weaknesses to his game, but that's not really true. Before the game, Battier was given his special package of information. "He's the only player we give it to," Morey says. "We can give him this fire hose of data and let him sift. Most players are like golfers. You don't want them swinging while they're thinking." The data essentially broke down the floor into many discrete zones and calculated the odds of Bryant making shots from different places on the court, under different degrees of defensive pressure, in different relationships to other players — how well he scored off screens, off pick-and-rolls, off catch-and-shoots and so on. Battier learns a lot from studying the data on the superstars he is usually assigned to guard. For instance, the numbers show him that Allen Iverson is one of the most efficient scorers in the N.B.A. when he goes to his right; when he goes to his left he kills his team. The Golden State Warriors forward Stephen Jackson is an even stranger case. "Steve Jackson," Battier says, "is statistically better going to his right, but he loves to go to his left — and goes to his left almost twice as often." The San Antonio Spurs' Manu Ginóbili is a statistical freak: he has no imbalance whatsoever in his game — there is no one way to play him that is better than another. He is equally efficient both off the dribble and off the pass, going left and right and from any spot on the floor.
Bryant isn't like that. He is better at pretty much everything than everyone else, but there are places on the court, and starting points for his shot, that render him less likely to help his team. When he drives to the basket, he is exactly as likely to go to his left as to his right, but when he goes to his left, he is less effective. When he shoots directly after receiving a pass, he is more efficient than when he shoots after dribbling. He's deadly if he gets into the lane and also if he gets to the baseline; between the two, less so. "The absolute worst thing to do," Battier says, "is to foul him." It isn't that Bryant is an especially good free-throw shooter but that, as Morey puts it, "the foul is the worst result of a defensive play." One way the Rockets can see which teams think about the game as they do is by identifying those that "try dramatically not to foul." The ideal outcome, from the Rockets' statistical point of view, is for Bryant to dribble left and pull up for an 18-foot jump shot; force that to happen often enough and you have to be satisfied with your night. "If he has 40 points on 40 shots, I can live with that," Battier says. "My job is not to keep him from scoring points but to make him as inefficient as possible." The court doesn't have little squares all over it to tell him what percentage Bryant is likely to shoot from any given spot, but it might as well.
It's a great look at Houston's philosophy and approach to the game, illustrated by Battier's defensive play in a game against Kobe Bryant and the Lakers. The Rockets concern themselves with the process moreso than the outcome, because you can control the process; the outcome, not so much, since that's where chance comes into play. When your process is good, when you're making the correct decisions, you don't have to lose sleep over setbacks in the short-term, because you know that you're on the right side of the percentages, and over the long run, that's going to pay off.

Swansea City player Kristian O'Leary rejoins club in coaching role
Former Swansea City player Kristian O'Leary will return to the Liberty Stadium as a coach under new manager Michael Laudrup.
O'Leary spent almost two decades at the club after joining as an apprentice in 1992, making over 300 appearances for the Swans before leaving in February 2010.
He'll now take responsibility for helping develop the club's youngsters for first-team action.
O'Leary will also be in charge of the reserve team, which is likely to switch to an under-21 format.
He told the club's website he was 'honoured and excited' to be taking on the role.
He said: "Ironically it's 18 years to the day that I signed for the club as an apprentice. Now I'm joining as a coach. When I left the club two years ago I hoped and dreamed that this day would come. Everyone knows the feelings I have for this club... I will give everything to my new role."

Sydney, Dec. 5 : Sri Lankan cricketer Mahela Jayawardene is reportedly considering relinquishing his captaincy role at the conclusion of the Australian series, according to a report.
The 2011 World Cup finalists will begin preparations for a three-day tour match against the Cricket Australia Chairman''s XI, starting Thursday at Canberra''s Manuka Oval.
Jayawardene, 35, agreed to steer the side through a difficult transition period for Sri Lankan cricket, but admits he is likely to pass the leadership baton at the end of the Australian summer.
"I took on the responsibility to lead the team for one year and that will end after the Australian tour. I am going to take it one series at a time, especially after the Australian tour I will have time to think. I want to make that transition as smooth as possible," News. com. au quoted Jayawardene, as saying.
"I don''t want to let go all the good things that''s been done all these years and just walk away from that. I will sit down and talk to a few people that I talk to usually when it comes to taking a decision and have a chat with the selectors as well especially with the captaincy position, then it will be much easier for me to make a call on what I want to do in my career," he added.
"(After the tour) I can sit back and think what I want to achieve not just for myself but for the team as well," he further said.
Jayawardene, who has blasted 10,640 Test runs with 31 centuries at 50.18, believes the time may be right to groom 25-year-old Angelo Mathews as his successor, the report said.
"In a way, personally, I feel that it would be better for him to be captain while there are some senior hands around in the team to help him rather than him taking over when there is no one," he said.
"He is very mature. The other important thing is he''s earned the respect of all the players, the younger and older players. The team is more focused on what they want to achieve now. It is a much-settled set-up. It could be the right time to give Angelo the captaincy," he added. (ANI)

Your baby, Your choice
Through our hypnobirthing classes and ongoing support our aim is to give you the pregnancy, birth and family experience you dream of.
Calm Beginnings provides support for you as an individual, couple, and family during every stage of your child's development, from hypnobirthing through to weaning and beyond.
We are qualified professionals with a combined 20 years of experience working with families.
We offer group hypnobirthing in Welwyn Garden City and offer individual classes throughout Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and Essex in the comfort of your own home, or at Herts Therapy Centre, Welwyn Garden City.
So does hypnobirthing actually work?
Well you have probably read about Kate's hypnobirthing experience, or at least heard of it, and you may have read or heard anecdotal stories about the amazing births experienced by those taking hypnobirthing classes, there will still be some of you who need actual clinical proof. We are awaiting the result of the SHIP trial which ended in 2013, but there have been many studies over the years that hughlight the benefits of hypnobirthing. I have summerised some below some of the research out there. There is of course a whole lot more, and I continue to eagerly await the results of the SHIP trial.
So firstly lets consider length of labour. My first labour was long and tiring, my second quick and calm. Second labour are generally shorter than first, and everyone labours at their own rate. However in 1990 Harmon,Hynan & Tyre (1990) found that first time mothers using hypn...

Hello All,
My question is not entirely technical it is more of a network policy query. I would like to know how others deal with copyright responsibilities and how you lock staff internet access down.
Staff users currently have unrestricted access to the internet (other than general filters). They are informed that they should ask before downloading media but as expected they never do. I have since found a raft of media content (possibly illegal) on the network. This is deleted as and when we find it.
I aware that in some schools network administrators will turn the blind eye, something I am reluctant to do.
Question 1: What restrictions if any do you use?:confused:
Question 2: As network admin are you responsible for Copyright infringement within your school?:confused:
Thanks for reading.

Guard D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera scored 26 points and led his team with four steals as the Georgetown Hoyas dropped the No. 10 VCU Rams, 84-80, on Sunday in San Juan. The Hoyas took the fifth-place game in the consolation round in the 2013 Puerto Rico Tip-Off Classic.
Guard Markel Starks added 23 points and five assists for Georgetown, and center Joshua Smith plugged the paint on defense and contributed 17 points on offense.
Georgetown overcame 26 turnovers by shooting 56 percent from the floor and holding the Rams to 36 percent. Behind Smith-Rivera's five three-pointers, the Hoyas had another edge behind the three-point stripe.
VCU was led by guard Briante Weber's 22 points, four steals, six rebounds and three assists. The pesky Rams recorded 15 steals on the day, but struggled to score off the many Hoya turnovers. The loss was VCU's second of the young season. Coach Shaka Smart's Rams fell Thursday to Florida State and recovered to beat Long Beach State a day later.

With the really hard nosed coaches available being mostly defensive minded. And a true need of the team being not to make the "nice guy" coaching mistake they made with Norv. It may be time to talk Offensive Coordinators soon. My hope would be that Pagano stays as our young and talented defense both know and love him, not to mention he has gotten the job done thus far. That being said I am also aware that Cam Cameron got fired from Baltimore this season. But two thing that I feel are true and merit his return to the Bolts.
One.... The ravens don't have Rivers. Now I'm not one of those that think Rivers is the savior or anything like that, in fact I rather disliked Rivers in the beginning and was rather angry when they let Drew go. I simply felt nervous every time the ball was snapped and Rivers started to do his "ant in my pants" dance in the pocket looking like a terrified toddler. But he grew on me. I wish he was more mobile, but in the pocket with good protection hes got the accuracy and arm strength to control a game. Flacco can manage a game but never control it. Even with a threat like Boldin he does not excel, but rather maintains and leans on Rice to provide the Offense.
Two..... Cam was successful in San Diego, with some (not alot) of the same key players on our offense. With a rebuilt O-line there is no reason to believe he can't be again.
So maybe with Pagano calling the D, and Cameron calling the O...... and a no-nonsense head coach this team can be what it should have been for the last 2 years and what it was for years before that. And then some.

The Linux Mint subreddit: for news, discussion and support for the most popular Linux distribution.
Mint in VMware: resumed a session and kernel crashed, restarted and now I have no desktop icons or right click. (self.linuxmint)
submitted 1 year ago by combobreaker69
Sorry for the lengthy title. Also, I'm pretty new to Linux.
I went with a VMware install to test out Mint and see what distribution I would like to go with. I installed Linux Mint 14 with Cinnamon.
Anyway, I resumed a "machine state" session in VMware and the keyboard lights started blinking whenever I tried to do something, so I googled that and I found a couple things saying the kernel crashed. The system was not responsive in any way I could detect, so I just powered down the virtual machine forcefully (I know that's not good in Linux).
I restarted and logged in and the desktop icons were gone. Right clicking on the desktop did nothing. Firefox seemed to work fine, and right click did register.
It's a fresh install, so I don't have any data to lose, but I would like to learn to fix it and gain some experience.
Anyway, thanks for any and all help! It's very much appreciated.

actually, shutting down linux the hard way will never cause as much damage as it can in windows ( read, corrupt registry, render it unbootable,...).
that said, i don't know what you did, or how to fix it ... but if you don't have much data in /home , since it's a fresh install, you could try deleting / renaming some of the hidden config files in your home folder... test which ones might fix this issue.
[–]heeb 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (0 children)
I have the exact opposite experience... Windows can get Fucked Up Beyond All Repair, but in my experience it has almost never anything to do with a hard reset. Linux, on the other hand, seems to be somewhat more susceptible in this regard.
/DISCLAIMER: just my experience. I love Linux.

That's not true at all. I don't even know if "rarely" would be a could replacement for the word "never". Any time you hard shut down any system, you run the risk of not being able to boot up afterwards. You don't become magically immune to this by switching to Linux.
[–]dr_qwertz 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
well, you're probably right, but i never had an unbootable linux os after a hard shut down where as i had to deal with corrupt windows registry a few times. i think ext fs handles these better than ntfs too, but i'm no expert.
[–]eulerfoiler 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
I had something similar using VMWare and Mint 14 with Cinnamon! I ended up having to switch to 2D Cinnamon to use my system again. When at the desktop with no icons and no ability to mouse click, press Ctrl + Alt + Backspace. There you can change your desktop environment settings at the login prompt. Hope this works for you or you can figure it out!

Semi-Automatic Espresso Machines
Be your own barista! Semi-automatic espresso machines offer just the right amount of control over how your espresso is made at home. While they may look different, the basic functionality of a semi-automatic espresso machine includes a boiler, a portafilter and a switch or lever to perform the extraction. You'll still grind and tamp your espresso (or insert an espresso pod), start the extraction and then steam or froth your milk as necessary. Semi-automatic espresso machines fall into two different types:
- Manual Control: On these semi-automatic espresso machines, the shot is initiated and you stop it once you decide the extraction is complete, usually in 20-30 seconds. This offers real-time control over the length of your extractions
- Programmable Doses: These semi-automatic espresso machines allow you to program the extraction to stop after a specific amount of time.

A group of Centenary students helped clean up the charred remains of a church playground set Thursday, after officials say someone burned it down late Monday night.
The group of student volunteers and Centenary staff members were at First Baptist Church School in Shreveport bright and early to help scoop up the blackened parts of the play area and dispose of them.
"This helped us in that it got rid of all of the bad memories that were here after seeing it burned," says James Gillespie, head of First Baptist Church School.
Gillespie say the children have been drawing designs for what they'd like to see for replacements and new additions to the playground.
No arrests have been made in connection with the arson. Fire officials say the investigation continues.

If only these fit better
Member since
I really wish I could have kept these shoes. I put in about 20 miles of hiking through Zion, Arches, and the Wasatch Mountains, but, invariably, the top lace mount would dig into my footâ-a discomfort I wasn't willing to endure.
This is a solid, lightweight shoe that performed very well in nearly all aspects (traction, puddles, etc.) except for the foot digging and a propensity for pinky-toe blisters.
I ultimately returned them and went with the Columbia Pagora Hiking Shoe...thanks BackCountry for a seamless exchange!
beats boots
Alex Pingel
Member since
I love these. Nice stiff sole and yet very comfortable. Make sure to knock them off before getting back in the car as theyll cake up easily. Not sure about the waterproofing yet, but they definitely keep my feet cooler than my old hiking boots.
i have really wide feet would you recommend...

I've had multiple Salomon hiking boots in...
K flynn
Member since
I've had multiple Salomon hiking boots in the past and always wore a size 11. Do the hiking shoes run true to size? I often fall between size 10.5---11 depending on themake of shoe.
great for wet, rocky terrain
Member since
I just finished a 4 day trek on the Inca Trail in Peru and these shoes were perfectly suited for the task. Great traction on the rocky and sometimes wet terrain and plenty of comfort and support while I carried a 25 lb pack roughly 8 miles/day.
I can't comment on longevity yet but they show no signs of deterioration after my first thrashing.
Do these shoes come with the quicklace...
Dan M
Member since
Do these shoes come with the quicklace system?
Yule & Bellow

comes with standard lacing system
Awesome hiking shoe.
Member since
I bought these to replace an older pair of Solomon shoes that I bought a few years back. I love this shoe. Works better than imagined. Works great for all seasons. Waterproof. Comfortable. True to size. Looks great.
Disappointing quality
Bob Harding
Member since
I purchased these shoes to replace a pair of Salomon Elios LTR shoes that I'd had for over 2 years and while they are every bit as comfortable as my old shoe, the quality of this shoe is not nearly as good. After less than one month of moderate wearing the stiching in the rear heal came away.
Hats off the Backcountry who sent out a replacement pair of shoes straight away. Hopefully these will stand the test of time...we'll see.
Does this shoe compare to the Lowa Renegade...
Member since
Does this shoe compare to the Lowa Renegade GTX low ?Tks. RK
Sumner Ohye
Member since
RK,Renegade II - Gortex (waterproof), 3/4 synthetic shank (stiffness), all leather and metal eyelets (durability and abrasion resistance). Elios - Gortex XCR (waterproof and more breathable), 12.6 ounces (vs 2 lb 2 oz. lighter), mesh uppers (cooler).If you want something for day hikes that can handle a little weight on your back the Lowa will work perfectly. If you want something you can do day hikes with, prefer lighter weight gear, and want something you can wear in town, the Salmon is the way to go. Mahalo, Sumo
how is the width on this shoe?

Salomon runs a bit wide, almost a D width.

I have a pair of Salomon "X-Hiking" shoes - med green in color that have lasted for years - fantastic shoe...They are now just physically worn out and I want another pair just like them...Does this Elios XCR compare to it ??? Tks RK
Steve Tibbitts
Member since
Sure do! These shoes are right up your alley if you're looking for loads of comfort and something very long lasting. These are great shoes!Hope that helps.
Very light hiking shoes
Member since
I had these for about a year. Very comfortable shoes. It's very light but durable. I love it!

Michael Feinstein Will Succeed Marvin Hamlisch at the Pasadena Pops; Pops Will Celebrate Hamlisch
By Andrew Gans
Grammy winner Michael Feinstein will succeed Marvin Hamlisch, who passed away Aug. 6, as the lead conductor of the Pasadena Pops, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Feinstein, who will have the new title of Marvin Hamlisch Chair at the Pasadena Pops, will assume the position during the 2013 season. It will mark the first time Feinstein has been the conductor of an orchestra.
Michael Feinstein told the LA Times, "It will take an enormous amount of work and study on my part to prepare. It's a delicious challenge and I'll certainly be learning along the way."
In related news, the Pops will present a free tribute concert to the late Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Hamlisch Sept. 22. The 7 PM concert, held on the steps of Pasadena's City Hall, will be hosted by Jason Alexander. Larry Blank will conduct the orchestra.
A five-time Grammy nominee, Michael Feinstein is often credited with reinvigorating interest in the American popular song. The crooner has performed in concert halls around the world and on Broadway and now co-owns his own nightclub, Feinstein's at Loews Regency. His numerous solo recordings include "Fly Me to the Moon," "The Sinatra Project," "Michael and George: Feinstein Sings Gershwin," "Big City Rhythms" "Romance On Film, Romance On Broadway," "Michael Feinstein with The Israel Philharmonic Orchestra," "Only One Life: The Songs of Jimmy Webb" and "Hopeless Romantics." Feinstein was most recently on Broadway in the short-lived All About Me opposite Dame Edna Everage.

Uncovering Europe's best budget hotels since 2001.
Home > Travel Blog > Czech Republic >
The Czech Republic is way more than just Prague. Unfortunately, few people venture out into the lovely countryside, spending their holiday just in the city, or perhaps popping out to a nearby castle. To truly experience the country, (or any country) you must leave the "big" city and explore the smaller towns and the countryside.
Journeying to Moravia, the eastern half of the country, is an excellent way to do this in the Czech Republic. Here you'll find beautiful landscapes full of vineyards and fabulous wine towns waiting to be discovered.
Valtice and Lednice
Valtice and Lednice are towns near the border of Austria, which makes them convenient destinations if you will be visiting Vienna as well. Large chateaus dominate each of the villages. The two towns, along with a lovely park, comprise the Lednice-Valtice Complex, a 200-kilometer area with UNESCO World Heritage distinction. Bikers can explore the area via the excellent marked trails—including one dedicated to grapes—which wind through the vineyards and into the villages.
In Lednice, the gorgeous complex is better preserved and extensive: Members of the Lichtenstein family lived in the English Tudor Neo-Gothic building until the end of World War II. The park, complete with ponds and canals, is designed for a lovely wander or a leisurely boat ride. And don't miss the minaret on the other side of the pond. It's the tallest of this type of structure in a non-Islamist country. The medieval ruin? It's actually a hunting lodge and was designed to look that way.
Valtice's chateau is a bit more rundown, and the surroundings aren't as impressive. It has two special things going for it, though: a brand new herb garden showcasing hundreds of different herbs and their uses and the National Wine Center. Yep, this is wine country, and in the basement of Valtice's chateau, you can sample each of the country's 100 best wines (the selection changes annually). Pace yourself, please.
Both towns offer restaurants and accommodation, although Valtice may be the more pleasant of the two towns if you are over-nighting. A local bus will sprint you between the two towns in less than 10 minutes, but take the more exploratory way and walk.
An easy 11-kilometer marked trail will lead you from near the Valtice train station to the center of Lednice. Along the way, you'll pass the Temple to the Three Graces and St. Hubert Chapel, a Gothic column dedicated to the patron saint of hunting.
Getting there
From Prague, Valtice and Lednice are best reached by train. The journey time is approximately four hours. Visit IDOS, the official transportation site, for more information.
Moravia is famous for its warmth; both in the people and the weather. The wine here is a bit fresher, and the vibe more laid-back than Prague. Whether you explore Valtice and Lednice on bike or foot, you will encounter a peaceful corner of the Czech Republic and a new appreciation for the country.
My husband and I lived in Prague for five years and certainly agree with you that there is much more to the Czech Republic than Prague. We spent a long weekend in Valtice several years ago at a Baroque music and wine festival. It was wonderful. That whole region is definitely worth a visit.
Absolutely lovely piece. We have always been such fans of the Czech Republic beyond Prague. That is not to say that Prague is not well worth visiting, but it has longed seemed to us to be far less interesting than many other Czech spots. We have done no more than pass through that corner of south Moravia about which you write here, but your piece really encourages us to really stop off. Sort of place we speed through on the main route from Berlin to Vienna or Budapest, but clearly it deserves a stop.
Susanne and Nicky
Thanks Susanne and Nicky,
You are right – the Czech Republic is full of gorgeous towns and villages that get passed over by many travelers. The South Bohemia region is another one filled with interesting sites, especially if you like biking, and North Bohemia, with "Czech Paradise" and "Czech Switzerland" is not only filled with castles but has some excellent hiking and rock climbing opportunities.

LAS VEGAS -- As the wars overseas wind down, U.S. veterans are coming home to face a different kind of battle. They are trying to find work in a tough economy.
U.S. Vets in downtown Las Vegas is packed everyday with vets from all backgrounds looking for help transitioning from military to civilian life. One of their main concerns is finding work. According to a survey done in May by Monster Worldwide Inc., the number of vets confident about finding suitable work fell from 44 to 29 percent in a six-month period.
"It's hard to find a job. You can't get anybody to call you back, especially in the aviation field," said 28-year-old Michael Verrette. He spent 11 years in the U.S. Air Force and has been on a job hunt since leaving the service last year.
New government numbers show the unemployment rate for the youngest veterans, those who enlisted after 9/11 is now close to 10 percent.
"They have skills but sometimes transitioning those skills from the military world to civilian life is tough for them," said Larry Williams, U.S. Vets program manager.
Aside from career assistance, the non-profit U.S. Vets is also helping to educate veterans on new federal programs that provide everything from free education to work training.
Major corporations like MGM Resorts is also stepping up to help vets with a program called "Boots to Business." It launched earlier this year and gives former military personnel, like Jonathan Wei, real work experience in hotel management.
"I am just honored to be in this program. It's a great opportunity for me," said Wie, a Navy veteran.
"I guess the best way to honor a vet is to hire a vet. They were an asset to us in the military, they will be an even greater asset in the civilian world," Williams said.

Tramlines Festival introduces one off door charge
Tickets for this year's Tramlines Festival in Sheffield will cost £6 per day. Last year more than 150,000 people attended the event.
– Sarah Nulty, Festival Director
We are really proud of this year's line up and I think fans will agree that we've come back stronger than ever. We've got loads more in the pipeline to announce. Every year we put on literally hundreds of acts across the whole of the city so this is just the start.
A few changes this year, the biggest being the introduction of a one off door charge of £6 per day, but we still have loads of free music and areas for people to enjoy. We've increased the capacity for Toddla, added a new stage and really enhanced our fringe.
– Sarah Nulty, Festival Director
Tramlines really is a festival like no other. We give music fans a chance to see their favourite artists for just £6 a day. I'd say we are the best value festival out there and I can't wait for the festival weekend now – things are really gearing up.

Parents Who Pamper
I am an overindulgent parent. The realization hit me like a truck this past winter as I was navigating the normal morning tumult of getting my 7- and 9-year-old sons ready for school. To speed along getting dressed, I had come up with the idea of first putting their clothes in the dryer. It worked brilliantly. The clothes came out; the boys couldn't get that warm underwear on fast enough! But my ego was quickly deflated when several weeks into this routine, the dryer was full of wet laundry and the boys had to – gasp – put on room temperature clothing again.
"I can't wear this. It's not WARM. You have to warm these clothes up."
I was immediately crippled by horrific visions of these sweet little boys growing into ungrateful, spoiled men, whining to their future wives that they expect their clothes to be warmed each morning. I asked myself, "What on earth have I done?"
The Problem
Plenty, according to Dr. Betty Lou Bettner, psychologist, family therapist and co-author of several parenting books. "Pampering is an epidemic," she says. "We are producing the most indulged generation in history. The newspapers focus on abuse and neglect, which is the No. 1 worst thing you can do to a child. They don't say that the No. 2 worst thing you can do is pamper them."
I am not alone in my behavior. Dr. Bettner estimates that pampering or indulging goes on in more than 60 percent of households with children. It starts early and perpetuates itself.
Sue Butler of Lafayette Hill, Pa., mother of three boys ages 3, 6 and 8, recently noticed a troubling pattern in her home. "When something gets broken, my kids just expect to get a brand-new replacement," she says. "There is no sense of loss. We are so afraid of our kids being disappointed; we are constantly shielding them."
Despite her instincts to protect her children, Butler realizes that replacing broken items may be doing more harm than good. She wants her boys to be independent and understand concepts such as gratitude.
"Parents are confused," Dr. Bettner says. "They have good intentions but don't see their actions as irresponsible."
The Causes
So what defines over indulging or pampering? The most straightforward definition is doing something for a child that they can do for themselves, Dr. Bettner says. It also involves setting unhealthy expectations of entitlement. Examples of such parental behavior include the following:
- Waking a child up in the morning
- Helping to dress
- Packing lunches
- Fetching items
- Supervising homework
- Constantly reminding
- Granting reprieves on chores
- Replacing lost or broken items
- Purchasing unearned gifts
By engaging in this behavior, parents are depriving children of critical opportunities to develop into independent adults. We are robbing them of responsibility.
There are many theories as to why we over indulge our children. Butler hypothesizes that with more dual-income families, the guilt factor plays heavily. She also thinks that parents who have fewer children have more time to indulge. "Once I had my third child, I physically couldn't do as much for each of them," she says.
Butler also notices that society fosters a sense of instant gratification and entitlement. "My 3-year-old knows that if you miss a TV show, you can 'DVR it,'" she says. "They realize that they are able to get whatever they want, whenever they want." This societal pressure is all the more reason for parents to provide balance.
The Cure
For parents who want to stop indulging their children, there are many points of entry. Dr. Bettner suggests a family meeting to kick off the process. "Sit down and tell your kids you've made a BIG mistake," she says. "That will get their attention. Tell them that you realized that you have been treating them like babies and they deserve better. They are going to start doing more things on their own and taking more responsibility for their actions."
Identifying together ways that children can become more independent allows the child to become vested in the course of action. It will be up to the parent to stay on the right track.
For certain tasks, it may be harder for the parent to let go. For instance, walking to school, waiting for the bus alone or cooking on the stove involves safety issues. For tasks such as these, a progression is appropriate and gives everyone a greater sense of comfort. Here's how:
- You perform the task.
- You perform the task with the child's help.
- The child performs the task with your help.
- The child performs the task alone.
Usually, if the child asks to do something by themselves, it probably means they are ready. Dr Bettner believes that children can do most household tasks by the age of six.
So what do you do when your child forgets that violin or school lunch? Dr. Bettner doesn't suggest leaving a child stranded without something they need. The key is to teach them it is not OK to forget. "Nobody is perfect, but the child must understand the consequences of their actions," she says. "Bring the violin to school, but let the child know that their forgetfulness consumed some of your valuable time. They owe you for that time. In the end, if you pamper your child in such a way that inconveniences you, you are disrespecting yourself."
Once the child is off and running on his own, it is important to offer positive feedback. Compliment the child on the effort – not necessarily the outcome. When mistakes happen, play them down. Don't focus on the mistake itself but ask her what she learned from it. "Self-esteem comes from what you can do," Dr. Bettner says.
Moving away from indulgent behavior takes parental perseverance and energy. Stacy Kincaid of Bethesda, Md., recently stopped making lunches and organizing dance and swim bags for her two girls, ages 10 and 8. "I do think it takes consistent reinforcement," she says. "That's the hard part. Sometimes they complain that it's hard to make a sandwich and spread peanut butter, but I tell them that it's no more difficult than putting a dress on a Polly Pocket."
Kincaid recognizes that even the most well intentioned parent has moments of vulnerability. "When you're tired and in a hurry and they're complaining about making their lunches, it's easy to just grab the Ziplocs and do it yourself," she says. "If you can take a minute and remind them of why they're doing it, and then leave the room ... it's amazing what gets done while my hairdryer is buzzing away upstairs."
Dr. Bettner reassures parents that you can still be kind without over indulging. "If you are in the kitchen and near the juice, it's absolutely OK to ask the child if he or she wants some juice." The difference between being kind and pampering is usually recognizable.
Parents must constantly ask themselves, "What qualities do I want for my child, and is doing this for them instilling or diluting those qualities?" I now ask myself this question every day, and it is beginning to yield dividends. My children still have warm clothes in the morning, but they pick them out and put them in the dryer all by themselves. And watching them, I feel warm all over too.

Carlos Gomez and Reed Johnson have each been suspended one game for their participation in Wednesday evening's bench-clearing brawl between the Milwaukee Brewers and the Atlanta Braves. Both suspensions will be enacted Thursday night. Gomez will miss the Brewers' game against the New York Mets at Citi Field, and Johnson will miss the Braves' home game against the Philadelphia Phillies.
The fight broke out in the first inning. Gomez was the game's second batter of the evening. After hitting a solo home run off Paul Maholm, Gomez took his time trotting the bases, jawing with Maholm and first baseman Freddie Freeman along his path towards home. As Gomez rounded third towards home plate, he found catcher Brian McCann standing in his way. The initial jawing escalated from there.
As Gomez and Johnson were exchanging words before home plate, Johnson came off the bench and threw a punch at Gomez's head, and appeared to be the first player to make physical contact between the two teams. Both benches and bullpens promptly cleared to form a mass of players that moved just behind home plate. Throughout the chaos, Gomez never touched home plate, though officials still awarded him the run.
Gomez and Johnson were ejected, as well as Freeman and Braves reserve catcher Gerald Laird. Only Gomez and Johnson earned suspensions, however.
Gomez apologized for the incident after being handed his suspension, and admitted that he went overboard. He also said that he expected the reaction he got from McCann. Gomez showed little contrition to Johnson, however:
Gomez said he didn't know why Reed Johnson took particular offense Wednesday night. "I didn't even know he was still playing," Gomez said.— Adam McCalvy (@AdamMcCalvy) September 26, 2013

AKRON - Toledo wrapped up a fantastic weekend with a 2-1 triumph against Akron on Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium - Cub Cabet Field. The Rockets also claimed a 3-0 shutout victory at Buffalo on Friday to improve to 4-7-1 overall, 2-1-1 in the Mid-American Conference.
"This was an important weekend for us in a lot of ways," said two-time reigning MAC Coach of the Year Brad Evans, whose squad won back-to-back matches this weekend for the first time this season. "We were able to show ourselves that we could discover different ways to claim points on the road. It doesn't get any bigger than having two seniors step up on the road on a Sunday and deliver such valuable goals."
Seniors Megan Blake and Kristen Mattei each found the back of the net for the first time in 2012 to help the two-time reigning MAC regular-season champions move to 10-1-1 all time against the Zips.
The cross-division rivals exchanged shots in the first half before Blake gave the Midnight Blue & Gold a 1-0 advantage on a header off a corner kick from sophomore Kirsten Catloth at 44:03. Last fall, Blake scored one of her three goals on the season against Akron at Scott Park.
Akron (4-7-0, 0-4-0 MAC) knotted the score at 1-1 on Ashley Hughes' team-high fourth tally of the season at the 62:33 mark. The goal was setup on helpers from Amber Kern and Katie Wise to draw the teams even.
Mattei then delivered her second match-winning score versus the Zips when she knocked home a free ball in the UA goal box following a corner kick. Two years ago on this same pitch, Mattei tallied her first collegiate score in the 106th minute to give UT a 1-0 double-overtime shutout win. Sophomore Alexis Tice was credited with the assist.
Between the posts, sophomore Kelsey Borowitz went the distance for the second time this weekend and was credited with two stops to record the important road victory.
For the match, UA finished with a slight 9-7 edge in shots, including Kelly DeNiro's game-high three shots. Freshman Megan Connor led the Rockets' attack with two shots.
"Today we challenged ourselves to work through this contest mentally," Borowitz said. "We came off Friday's first MAC win and had to prove to ourselves that we could perform since we've struggled in Sunday matches this year. It's an important milestone for our team to mentally push through and finish with a W."
The Rockets will look to continue their recent momentum when they open a season-long four-match home stand against MAC West Division rival Central Michigan on Friday, Oct. 5. The opening whistle is slated for 4:00 p.m. at Scott Park.

GADSDEN, Ala. (AP) - A court has delayed a bond hearing for an Alabama grandmother charged with capital murder in the running death of her 9-year-old granddaughter.
An Etowah County judge was scheduled to consider a bond request by 48-year-old Joyce Hardin Garrard on Friday, but he delayed the hearing until May 7.
Court records don't show why Judge William Ogletree postponed a status conference for the second time in as many months.
Garrard has been in jail more than a year awaiting trial in the death of her 9-year-old granddaughter, Savannah Hardin.
Authorities say the woman forced the child to run as punishment for a lie, and the girl died.
The girl's stepmother also is charged with murder in her death, but the judge previously released her on bond.

MADISON (WKOW) -- Public school open enrollment begins Monday for the next 2012-2013 school year.
Open enrollment allows parents to apply to send their children to a school district other than their home district.
The open enrollment period is longer this year because of a new law. It used to run for three weeks in February. It now extends to April 30. Parents will be informed by June 8 whether their applications have been approved or denied.
The state Department of Public Instruction says parents are responsible for transporting their children to and from school.

need shopping cart plugin with secret wholesale pricing
I'm on the prowl for a shopping cart solution that will allow me to show something different to regular retail visitors vs. logged in wholesale customers.
I want retail customers to just see the products without any pricing and without any checkout functionality. So basically just product descriptions and pictures.
I want logged in wholesale customers to also be able to see the pricing and the checkout functionality.
Any suggestions on a shopping cart plugin that can meet these needs?
Please advise. Thanks.

I loved the team, no doubt. But obviously, there were some major weaknesses present.
We had three major problems- free throw shooing, rebounding, and injuries.
The Key- 5- Huge leap(good)
4- Small step forward
3- Stay the same
2- Small step backwards
1- Falling off a cliff
We'll start with free throw shooting.
The rundown- Last season obviously was a bad year for FT shooting. Last year, we were 416 for 627, resulting in a facepalm average 66%. That is not championship caliber.
Why help is on the way:
We get back Jared Swopshire, who in 2010 shot 85% from the charity stripe. Free throws only can improve (generally) for players. Players like Peyton Siva (68%), Gorgui Dieng (54%), Stephan Van Treese (31%), and Chris Smith (68%) have to step up. Wayne Blackshear and co. will also provide help. We lose Preston!, who was our leading FT shooter, but retain the next best three, Jared Swopshire (85%), Mike Marra (74%), and Kyle Kuric (76%).
Why it will bug us next year: Of the top 5 as far as free throws attempted, FOUR were under seventy pecent.
I believe with maybe a little bit more work and time to work on FT's, that we will improve a bit. Also, we return our top FT shooters.
The Verdict- 4
Next is Rebounding.
Why help is on the way:
This one can be directly attributed to injuries. Our two leading rebounders, Jared Swopshire (6.1), and Rakeem Buckles (6.1) were hurt most of the year. Tony Woods and Chane Behannen will bring immediate help. Wayne Blackshear gives us lots of length at the guard position. I don't think much more needs to be said.
Why it will bug us next year:
Injuries. That is all.
The verdict-5
Unpredictable. Especially for us.
I say the future is bright! Next year is our year! Go Cards.
