We loved IslaMar! Especially Sherri and her gracious way of making us feel like we have known her forever! She always was so accommodating and took time to talk with us. We were glad we had rented a car as it made our coming and going easier and gave us a sense of freedom which we love on our vacations. Zuri was wonderful and we enjoyed her so much with her willingness to be so helpful and always with a smile on her face! Adios Amigas!!
Stacy & Kate H. ~ Lake Country, B.C. Canada
Stay (04/21/2012) - The most relaxing and enjoyable vacation we have had in many years! It was truly an amazing way to spend our 25th anniversary! Thank for the champagne! The experience of living amongst the locals (at first intimidating) became very natural, very quickly. The local food was awesome and the people were as friendly as my own neighbors at home. Miguel & Zuri were wonderful! Right there when you needed them. I will never forget Zuris smile and our Spanish lessons and no, there is not a monkey in our refrigerator! :-) I have been inspired to learn Spanish so when we return, we will be able to communicate much better! Sherri, it was a pleasure to see you again welcome home! This will be a memory imbedded in our hearts as well as in our minds! Thanks for making us feel like part of the crew!
Lisa & Jeff S. ~ Southampton, MA
Stay (11/21/2011) - We had a wonderful time! The neighbors are SO nice and were very helpful when we needed a hand! The villa is SO comfortable and the staff was wonderful. We enjoyed being off the beaten path. The walks to town were nice and the diving nearby was SPECTACULAR. The accommodations were wonderful and all the staff was great! We will come again next year.
Meg & Bob M. ~ Loveland, CO
As always, it has been GREAT! I never know what to write in here! An observation - This is year 5 staying here at IslaMar (or is it 4 or 6?)! I look forward to staying here again next year. I hope my actions convey my positive feelings better than my words.
Bob R. ~ Triadelphia, WV
Stay (03/08/2012) - This was our first time to Cozumel and IslaMar Villas is excellent! Wonderful accommodations with everything necessary. It is so well located to so many fantastic eating locations and far enough away from the craziness of downtown. The staff was excellent Miguel and Zuri took care of everything we needed. The area is so beautiful. Just wish we had more time. We will definitely be back. Hopefully sooner than later. Thanks for everything and making our first time in Cozumel so memorable. Gracias

Top 10 most-shared Usain Bolt ads of all time

She shuddered to recall the thorns and mud
Found to her shock she was clean of filth and blood.
Her original clothes were gone
Instead she had garments of leaves put on.
"Thank you, Desus..." she murmured in awe.
"Thank me instead." said the purple vulpine.
"You rescued me?" queried the moth.
"I had no choice; you would have died."
Allele frowned in confusion
"The round wasn't your doing?"
"Of course not." The guardian snapped.
"Your entire fight was not but a trap.
A trial of worth, and both of you failed.
Yet there must be a victor, so I chose you to bail."
"That was torture, unfair, just to see who was best..."
Orbs swirled quickly, eyes narrowed in angry thought.
"You are one to talk. You moan and lament your past, do you not?
But I look in your mind and what do I see?
A child who to forget her guilt pretends insanity."
Allele froze and Derca

"Whoah, calm down, boy!" said a familiar voice. A warm hand touched Tilt's head--he looked up and saw best friend. Not sick. Alive.
Tilt burrowed his head in Lance's lap as the boy hugged him. "What's wrong, Tilt? Bad dream?"
Not anymore.

Flutter Song woke up in her old home, baffled. What just...?
"Dancing Leaves?" she chirped nervously.
The fox tumbled into view below the tree Flutter Song was perched on. "Flutter Song, wake up! I thought you said you wanted to see the kits when they were old enough to get out of the den!"
"Th-the what?" she asked, dazed. Familiar trees surrounded her--she and Dancing Leaves' injuries were gone. "Where's...where's the Sacred Forest? Why are you alive!?"
The fox tilted his head. "I had a similar dream but..." He glanced around. "My mate never died. How could any of that have happened?
Sacred Forest - Round 4 - Page 7Camilla shivered on the cold forest floor. Was it real? Was she dreaming?Sacred Forest - Round 4 - Page 7 by Miirik
Please, please let it have been a dream...
She saw Meka, very still on the forest floor, surrounded with embers. It was all real.
She crawled over to Dercas--the kitsune was wheezing on the ground, opening her eyes when the girl got near.
"Dercas," Camilla croaked, "why did you even offer to grant a wish?"
Dercas stared blankly ahead, her breathing shallow. "I was lonely," she whispered. "So lonely. And I hoped that, maybe, by some small chance...I'd be freed by the wish." A tear slid down the guardian's face. "What an idiot I was...am."
Camilla glanced at the scarred forest, the fallen, the shaking ghosts whose hold on the world was fading. "I ruined everything," she sniffled, choking back a sob.
"There, there," Dercas said, almost tenderly. She weakly pushed Milly towards her with one of her tails and nestled with h

Make the wish! Dercas' panicked voice hissed in her head.
"I-I don't know what to wish for," Allele croaked, salty tears nearly forming in her eyes. She was in agony--her wings were too torn to even fly, and bleeding heavily. She realized with a cold sinking feeling that she might die today.
She could see in her fuzzy vision two gigantic beasts crashing into each other, snarling and sending blood of all colors flying. The competitors ran backwards in a panic, trying not to get crushed.
What a mess.
Allele stomped a hoof on the grass, staring Mobius in the eyes. The massive creature glared back, coiling around the leafy creature's neck as the creature smashed Mobius' face into the earth; she struggled free and slithered over to the competitors, tossing them to the side.
Allele stomped the ground with the last bit of her strength. "Hey!"
The massive gray creature turned to face Allel
Sacred Forest - Round 4 - Page 5Allele's wings were weak; she flew falteringly, nearly falling out of the air at some points and flying back up afterwards.Sacred Forest - Round 4 - Page 5 by Miirik
Not that Meka was doing a great job flying, either. He could barely fly in a straight line, and when he did, Camilla nearly slipped off his back. The haziness around the edge of his vision didn't help.
"Hang on," Meka growled to Camilla--she clung to his mane tightly.
Meka clumsily snapped at Allele, but she swiped her tail, slashing the scar on his chest without a single warning from his instincts. He grunted as he lost altitude, but he caught himself and chased after the moth again.
This time, Allele tried to kick Meka's snout--he swerved to the side and slashed at Allele's tail as Camilla leaped off of his back. She dug her dainty claws into the bug's leg.
"Get off!" Allele screeched, shaking her hoof to pry the Abstraction off. Meka was able to tear off a chunk of Allele's wings before Milly co

Mortal shivered and took a step, then another. In his mind, old memorys drifted up, so old he did almost not know that he still had them.
'A wanderer, that's what I am. A passenger in my own life. Never at home... A demon. An Exile.' He thought bitterly, as he walked beneath the trees, whose trunks threw long shadows across his back. His thoughts strayed in another direction, maybe because of the sense of magic, he got a little wistful.
'Life...' Mortal said aloud, then continued the trail of thought in his mind. 'What is a mortal life to a demon? What does that make me? Do I even have a soul?' His ears drooped for a moment at that. Then he shook himself and continued on his way.
Suddenly, a little cyan ball of light was floating in mid air, right infront of him, and it seemed to Mortal, as if there was a faint voice, like the rustling of leaves, and it whispered something... "I... can offer an escape!" And there she was, face to face with him,

"Would you quiet down, Pest!?" He snapped up at the giggling female.
"But Dadd-y!" She whined and landed in front of her father.
"For the last time…" The white creature began through clenched teeth. "I am not your Dad!"
The small, brown creature pouted.
"Fiiiiine…Mekaa…" She spat the last word out in a deeper, mocking tone. "But I like Daddy better." She mumbled to herself
Meka sighed. Sometimes he just couldn't take this creature…
"Daddy, I'm bored! Can we play a game while we look for this intruder?" the creature begged as jumped back into the air.

Microsoft Begins Rolling Out AdCenter Update
Microsoft's AdCenter has just released some new features, including the ability to measure tablet traffic via Microsoft Advertising Intelligence, the ability to have more ads per ad group, and increased site exclusions for syndicated ads.
The company has been working diligently in recent months to match Google AdWords' features and make it easier for advertisers to simply import their existing AdWords campaigns into adCenter.
Microsoft Advertising Intelligence, the desktop Excel add-on used for research, will now allow users to find tablet-specific information, including traffic, keyword performance, search-user location, age group and gender. MAI already supported smartphones.
The company has also tried to make it easier to import campaigns from AdWords, by increasing the limit on the number of ads per ad group. Starting in the next couple of weeks, advertisers can have 50 ads per ad group. This change is for search and contextual ads only, not mobile or Rich Ads in Search. This capability will be made available in the Desktop software in August.
Those running ads on search partners — like Yahoo and other sites where Microsoft syndicates search — now can list up to 2,000 sites on their exclusion list, either at the campaign or ad group levels. Previously, only 500 sites were allowed. This change will also roll out this month in adCenter, but won't appear in the Desktop interface until next month.
Users of adCenter will also soon see a new Billing screen, with a new "payment methods" tab and a new view of the account summary. The new view will allow for edits right on the screen, so users no longer have to switch to a separate tab. For now, you'll be able to toggle back and forth between the old and new billing screens.
DON'T MISS OUT! The agenda for Search Engine Land's SMX West search marketing show is now up. Search marketing is the biggest area of digital marketing. You can't afford to get it wrong! SMX has practical tips & techniques for those experienced with SEO & SEM plus a welcoming environment for beginners. Learn more!

Australian government plans to censor net content
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Australia is travelling down a slippery slope. Censorship is wrong, wrong, wrong, in a supposed democracy. Freedom of speech and expression is one of the tenets of democracy. Why should everybody be penalised? Haven't parents heard of blockers, limiting access to certain content on the internet? All internet providers have them. Fascism is rearing its ugly head again.
agree agree agree It will be the end of the net
Seems the Australian government is modelling itself after that of the Chinese…
Oh! Censorship in the UK too!Several webmasters have contacted me with regard to my postings critical of police. Police contact them trying to get threads removed, in particular regarding the homophobia the Stockwell shooting. Some webmasters do some do not as no site rules have been broken…but my own fault, I was wearing a large coat, jumped the barrier, ran from the police, ignored a warning shout, …Oh! No sorry, those were things that DID'nt happen!
The Stockwell shooting has got nothing to do with homophobia so I really don't understand why you are dragging it onto this site.I very much doubt that anything that has ever happened to you in any way compares with the Stockwell shooting or the distress that was caused to the victim's family and close friends. Any one of who could be reading this, and no doubt be further distressed by you cheapening a tragic event.
Anon. Congratulations! If Sister Mary Censorious says you've been a bad boy and swats your knuckles for daring to tell the truth about police abuse it's an honor. But don't get a swelled head; it's an honor dozens of us have enjoyed. It just means that that you're not a reactionary and that you're doing something right. Keep up the good work!
Very nice Bill, I'm sure you'd be fine about Malcolm dredging up the killing of a member of your family (let's assume for a moment that they haven't disowned you) for the purposes of making some cheap dig at the police.

I eat a fair bit of Thai food and this is definitely one of the better Thai restaurants I've come across. Much better than any of the other Thai restaurants in the area. Food is consistently awesome, friendly service and good value in my opinion.
Food was pretty alright. Not recommended to sit close to the kitchen, a bit noisy n strong smells of food keeps coming out of kitchen.

Users reviews
It's free & it's great.
It's not an innovative suite but its free and seems to be a great alternative to its commercial competitor. There are some common adds which can be found in most paid products but this update also includes some nice features of its own. Its interface hasn't changed much and the look is not very impressive but has all the necessary tools. The speed is so much faster when compared to previous version
When launching it can perform a bit slowly.
If you are looking for a free and great office suite, then Apache open office should be your go-to-suite.

PCL Readies Wall-Mounted Lighting For Las Vegas Market
Monday July 22nd, 2013 - 1:30PM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
Lighting and home accessory manufacturer Pacific Coast Lighting plans to introduce 16 new, easy-to-install wall lamps at the Summer Las Vegas Market, which runs July 29 to August 2. Under the Kathy Ireland Home and other designations, according to the company, the new products incorporate designs that make them easy to place anywhere in the home.
The introductions feature an intuitive two-step installation process, PCL stated. Consumers first mount the fixtures to any wall just like picture frames. Then they can plug into any standard wall outlet. At that point, the fixture is ready to light.
PCL indicated that it plans to offer 16 different design styles in the wall lamp collection. Many of the introductions complement existing popular table and floor lamp styles in the Kathy Ireland Home collection, the company noted.
"Most wall lamps are hardwired, requiring an electrician to run lines in the walls. Because these plug-ins can be installed in a snap, they can be utilized anywhere in the home, as an accent in the entry way, as a bedside or reading chair light, or as a space saver in small spaces like apartments or lofts," said Clark Linstone, Pacific Coast Lighting president.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Remember The Jeff Carter Trade To Columbus?
by Paul on 12/19/13 at 02:18 PM ET
Comments (1)
from Aaron Portzline of Puck-Rakers,
After weeks of haggling between Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren and then-Blue Jackets GM Scott Howson – did the Jackets want Carter or Mike Richards? would the Jackets include a prospect, first-round pick, and maybe another decent pick? – the two sides began to narrow in on a deal that would send promising left wing Jake Voracek, a first-round pick, and a third-round pick to the Flyers for the veteran Carter.
Holmgren hemmed and hawed for a few days until GMs began showing up in St. Paul and Minneapolis for the draft.
Holmgren called Howson the day before the draft in the morning to tell him he was ready to make the move, but not before he dropped a bombshell on Howson's lap, one that staggered him and forced him to sit down:
"You want 'em both?" Holmgren asked Howson, meaning Carter (ital) and (end) Richards.
Filed in: NHL Teams, Columbus Blue Jackets, Philadelphia Flyers, | KK Hockey | Permalink
OK as anecdotes/stories go, that is a good one.
The "What If?" is justified. What if CBS gets *both* Carter and Richards? Does it help or hurt them? Or… fascinatingly-enough…. would both have then been traded to LA together anyways?
While giving up Johansen and a pick that became Ryan Murray sounds like a lot… that first maybe isn't such a good one, and Murray is maybe no on the board for it. And Johansen still isn't looking great.
CBS really needed help right then, not futures. I'm a bit surprised they didn't do it.

There are numerous wedding traditions that happen at almost every wedding I've attended/photographed and thanks to a recent bridal shower I attended, I'm excited to do an entire blog post devoted to giving you some "answers" as to why certain traditions exist! So, enjoy a cup of coffee on this cool day and play along to see how many you know! If you've heard of a different answer, please leave your take in the comment section!
Why do we designate a specific ring finger?
The left 'ring finger' contains the vein of love. In the third century B.C. physicians with their misguided interpretation of human anatomy thought that a vein of blood ran directly from the third finger on the left hand to the heart. The vein was called vena amoris, or the vein of love. Thus, it was compelling and logical that the third finger should be the perfect part of the body to bear a ring symbolizing eternal love and commitment.
Why does the bride wear a veil?
It was believed that a veil wards off evil spirits by disguising the bride. The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that a bride's veil would ward off evil spirits and magically protect her from harm. Brides were veiled from head to toe, and only the husband could see the bride unveiled – so he could make sure he was indeed marrying the correct woman.
Why does the bride wear a white gown?
This shows the brie and groom are considered royalty. In 1499, Anne of Brittany wore the first knon white wedding dress in her wedding to Louis XII of France. Women just wore their best dress up until then, but as people loved to follow the example of royalty, white wedding dresses started to be in vogue after that.
Why does the bride stand on the left of the groom?
In order to defend his bride, the groom's sword arm – his right arm must be free.
Why does the bride carry a bouquet?
The carrying of a bouquet guarantees the couple many chances to have kids as flowers were originally integrated into wedding ceremonies as a symbol of fertility. The very first bouquets were made of herbs, but as time passed, brides began clamoring for something a bit more glamorous.
Why does the groom wear a boutonniere?
Throughout the Middle Ages, a knight going into battle or entering a jousting tournament often donned a token ribbon, scarf, flower or pennant of his lady's family crest over the left arm of his armor, where it was close to his heart. This is where we get the popular expression, "wearing your heart on your sleeve." Wearing a lady's colors was considered the epitome of chivalry since it signified that he was fighting for her specifically. Modern men have adapted this centuries-old tradition by choosing a flower from the bride's bouquet to pin upon the left lapel of the wedding suit.
Why do we serve wedding cake to guests?
During ancient times, wedding ceremonies were finalized by breaking a large loaf of bread above the head of the bride. After the loaf was broken, the wedding guests would gather the crumbs as tokens of good luck. Eventually, the bread was replaced by cakes which became more elaborate over the centuries.
Why does the couple cut the wedding cake together?
It symbolizes the couple's shared future together as it is the first time the newlywed couple breaks bread as husband and wife, and it also demonstrates their pledge to support and nourish one another.
Why does the wedding party dress alike?
The tradition of having members of the wedding party dress alike was started with the hopes that evil spirits will become confused and have a more difficult time distinguishing which one is the bride and prevent putting a hex on her.
Why do we tie cans to the wedding car?
Tying tin cans to the back of the newlywed's car recalls the ancient tradition of making loud noise to frighten away evil spirits.
Why does the bride wear something blue?
"something blue" is a symbol of fidelity and constancy. This custom began in ancient Israel when during biblical times the color of purity was blue, not white.
Why do we have a ring bearer?
The actual ring bearer tradition is believed to have evolved out of the Medieval era, where a young servant called a page, had the job of holding the bride's train down the aisle along with a prayer book. Around this time, the actual ring for the bride was carried on a tip of a sword, which sounds a tiny bit scary. Fortunately, after a while, wealthy families added the pillow into the ceremony because pillow's were very rare around that time, and were a way to show off their wealth. They also asymbolized good fortune for the couple. The rings were then tied onto the pillow to ensure that they wouldn't be lost
Why do we have a flower girl?
a) It is a fertility rite tradtion from ancient times. It was thought that strewing the path before a bride with flower petals would make her more fertile and cause her to get pregnant more quickly.
b) Apparently, back in the "old days" people didn't wear shoes and their feet stunk. So they threw flower petals to keep the stink down to a minimum. Or the strong smell warded off evil spirits.
c) It originated so that brides wouldn't have to walk on the dirt so flower girls would 'pave' the way with flower petals to keep the bottom of the brides dress clean.
Why does the bride throw her bouquet?
The tossing of the bridal bouquet is a custom that roots in England and was believed to be a way for the bride to pass along her good fortune to others. Bridal guests would try and tear away pieces of the bride's clothing and flowers in order to obtain this fortune. In attempt to get away from this tearing of her gown, the bride would toss her bouquet into the crowd. As tradition says, the single lady who catches the bouquet has received the bride's fortune and will be next in line to marry.
Why does the groom throw the garter?
Back in the 14th century England, wedding guests believed that owning a piece of the brides wedding dress would bring them good luck. The bride's dress was literally torn. In order to keep the dress intact, they began throwing bridal garters to the male guests. The men often times would become too rowdy and attempt to remove the garter from the bride themselves. It eventually became custom for the groom to remove the bridal garter from his brides leg and throw it himself. The lucky man who catches the garter when it is thrown is said to be the next in line to marry. It also was a chance for the single men to share in the good fortune of the groom.
Did any of those surprise you? Any other traditions you want to hear about? Have a wonderful day and weekend!!

It's been exactly those last 6 years since I've seen them in person and couldn't wait to meet their now beautiful family consisting of Joseph and Bonnie! Now that we're both back in Austin, it's been great catching up and remembering the journey that started 6 years ago for them…and for me! I never dreamed then how much I would LOVE being a wedding photographer – and am so thankful they gave me a chance which has led to where I am today! Happy Anniversary you two – you will always have a special place in my heart! (Special shout out thank you to my best friend Andria Schwind for meeting me in Florida that weekend to shoot this wedding with me!! What memories!!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SWEET FUR-BABY!!! You guys know how much I LOVE and adore my Kayla and today is her 10th birthday!! So to celebrate, I've compiled a group of photos to dedicate to her and for me to have to look back on! This sweet girl has been the most perfect addition to our family and I'm sure she'll get some extra treats today…and maybe a new toy!
A few fun facts:
- Kayla was born Nov 7, 2004 on a Horse Farm in Virginia to Lady Lucy II and White King III
- She's taken 3 driving trips across the country & lived in 8 different houses with us in 10 years!
- She's part of a family tradition….we've had Westies since my mom was younger – Kristy was the first, then KC, now Kayla and her cousin Kylie! (We were cool before the Kardashians, right?!)
- She's a delicate eater and has to taste test what you're giving her before she eats it – we know she doesn't like vegetables or anything green – but hand her a carrot or peanut butter and she thinks it's the best treat in the world!
- We've tried for years to get her to swim at Bass Lake and she really hates being in the water, but does well on boat rides!
- She LOVES cats
-She survived a vicious raccoon attack at Bass Lake a few years ago that was one for the Frey family cabin memories!
-She's a lover, snuggler and enjoys her nightly routine of kisses for Eric!
Baby Kayla when we first got her!!! January 2004
Trying to fit her into Eric's bags for his first deployment – 2006
Not so much a water-loving dog, but loves canoe rides!
BEST Christmas bag ever. Like really – pretty sure she could model. Christmastime is our favorite!!
Thanks Uncle James for making her look awesome in your motorcycle glassees – makes me laugh everytime! She hates being a reindeer.
I went there. Silly me, thinking she could fit into a 9 month Cinderella onesie Still one of the funniest photos!
With her cousin Kylie – grooming day, the only day these two ever look alike!!
She kills raccoons. Seriously – well sortof – she got attacked by 4 one night at our cabin and survived without a scratch!
She doesn't like it when we travel without her….
Trying out baby boy's new stroller……we think she approves?! Can't wait to see her with the baby soon!!

Oh, that beautiful Texas Hill Country sunset light…..makes for a perfect time of day to photograph love! After emailiing back and forth the past few months, I was so excited to finally meet Alex and Jessica for their Hill Country engagement photo shoot and met them at Camp Ben. Seeing Jessica jump out of the car in a gorgeous sparkling dress and heels, I knew we were in for fun and I love the contrast of nature and glamour. Doesn't she look stunning! I really enjoyed meeting these two and they made my job so easy as their love radiated for each other and excitement over the next stage of life together – it's always such a joy to photograph this time in couple's lives as they plan their forever together! Alex & Jessica – thank you for choosing me, for helping this preggo lady around a creek bed and I wish you two nothing but happiness and adventures together!! Congratulations!
About this time in our shoot, I was expecting Jessica's sweet sister and mom to stop by to surprise Alex & Jessica with their sweet fur baby Lulu! They had wanted to have her in photos, but logistics didn't work out…..or did they?!? I absolutely loved seeing how excited and surprised Jessica was to see Lu and we got to incorporate her into photos the rest of the shoot and I was so thankful to have some help with Jessica's sweet sister!
Champagne toasts are always fun – especially when you shake up the bottle, huh Alex?!
We then headed down into the creek bed for some gorgeous shots with the amazing cypress trees!
Congratulations Alex & Jessica!!!

Austin is definitely the place to be you guys – or at least to celebrate your wedding!! It truly has become a great 'destination' city to bring your family and friends to with so much to offer for delicious food and entertainment! That's exactly what Jim & Kary are doing next spring for their wedding day…..hoping their guests come visit Austin, a city they both love and experience some good food and fun! After phone calls and emails the past few months, I was so excited these two were coming to town from Atlanta for ACL (Austin City Limits Festival) last weekend so what better time to meet up and get some engagement photos taken?! They wanted an "Austin" vibe so we hit some of the iconic murals and had a great time – I just adore how much Jim makes Kary smile and her laughter was contagious! We had a wonderful time exploring the South Congress area and I'm so excited to share some of my favorites from their Austin engagement photo shoot!! Enjoy!!
Jim loves Kary so much. Soooo much.

ACA drives merger of Madison insurance associations
Send this to a friend
- Melanie Lawder, The Business Journal
The impending Affordable Care Act has driven Wisconsin Employment Benefits Advisors (WEBA), a Madison-based association for health insurance agents, to merge into the Independent Insurance Agents of Wisconsin (IIAW).
According to its website, IIAW is the largest independent insurance association in the state with members selling property, casualty, life and health insurance. All current members of WEBA will become members of IIAW, also based in Madison.
In a press release, WEBA's president Mike Farrell cited "the many challenges and opportunities facing employee benefit agents in the new health insurance marketplace" as the reasons for the merger. He also said that, for the past six months, its board of directors were looking for a way to "grow our voice and provide greater benefits to our members."
Additionally, IIAW's president Dave Dunker said he was "excited" about the consolidation of the two insurance associations.
"Many of WEBA's members have extensive experience and leadership regarding employee benefits. This will be an asset going forward as the health insurance marketplace changes," Dunker said in a press release.
WEBA's board of directors approved the merger, which goes into effect in October 2013, on Sept. 17.

Terrible Customer Service
The title of this review says it all. This location consistently has the worst customer service I have ever encountered....rude, disrespectful, condescending, etc.
Terrible ER
I was transported here by ambulance after an injury in Yellowstone National Park. I was not given a choice of hospitals. The doctor correctly diagnosed my broken wrist but did a lousy job of setting my wrist in a splint (according to the wrist specialist I saw in my home state). The doctor totally misread the x-rays on my knee and told me it was just bruised. It turns out I had a fractured patella and torn ligaments. I was in excruciating pain when I tried to get off the exam table into a wheel chair to leave. The nurse told me to use my good leg. I guess I was supposed to hop out. I spent 2 days in horrible pain before I went to another hospital where I was correctly diagnosed. I blacked out every time I had to move and my husband had to pick me up to carry me to the bathroom. Thank you Dr. Hancock for ignoring my symptoms and refusing to recheck the x-rays. Maybe you should take a course in how to read an x-ray. You should also listen to a patient when told she tells you she cannot put any weight on her leg. It usually means something is wrong!
Lousy Customer Service
The manager of this store is clueless. He was not able to answer a simple question and seemed very impatient when I asked about the difference in types of lenses. I am not going to invest money in an expensive pair of glasses, if they are not able to explain why one lens is better than another. He also referred to my vision insurance as "useless". If that is the case then I do not understand why they accept my insurance. Avoid this place.
Poor Customer Service
I have nothing good to say about this location. They are not friendly, helpful, or knowledgeable. Furthermore, they don't listen to the needs of the customer. I have been buying glasses at the Eye Gallery for the last 10 years. I will never shop at this location again.
Rude Office Staff
Dr. Burns is knowledgeable but her office staff is arrogant and condescending. It makes it difficult to schedule appointments when you are made to feel that you are bothering the receptionist.
Great Store
I needed a good pair of shoes for walking because my old ones were worn out. I read the reviews about Phidippides and thought I would take a chance. I was a little uneasy entering the store beacuase I wear a hard to find size but I was greeted warmly and told that they would be able to help me. I spent over an hour trying on shoes and finally found the perfect pair. The salesperson was incredibly helpful and never tried to rush me along. He called the other store to see if they had a shoe in stock in my size. I would definitely recommend doing business with this store and will return when I need a new pair of running shoes.
Poor Eye Care
The office smells musty and moldy. The office staff is extremely noisy; talking and laughing and could be easily heard in the exam room. The eye exam was a big joke. The so called doc spent very little time with me and would not listen to my concerns. He informed me that he is the expert. I left very dissatisfied and will now have to pay for another eye exam. My insurance only pays for 1 exam per year and I hate that I wasted it on this bozo. I need new glasses or else I would wait until next year. I asked for a return phone call and it has yet to happen. Several of my friends have left this eye clinic and now I understand why.
Poor Quality and Service
We placed an order with this Dominos a few weeks ago. When the order arrived, the crust was burned in some places and there was very little sauce on the pizzas. We complained to the manager and she offered to send out another order. However, we had already eaten something else. She assured us she would give us 2 free orders of the exact pizzas we had ordered. We called to use the offer tonight and there was no record of this offer in the computer system. This is very disappointing. They have lost my business but the plus side is that we will eat something healthier for dinner.
My first appointment with Dr. Albin went very well and I viewed him as a caring and compassionate doctor who wanted to help. I think that as long as you follow his advice and don't ask too many questions or ask about different treatments you will have a good experience. Once I questioned different treatment options, his attitude changed. He then made condescending remarks and was not at all helpful.
Absolutely awful. Did not do what I asked them to do and basically told me to get out of the way. Cleaned an Oriental rug that they were told not to touch. Set chairs and piano benches on top of my new sofa. What a nightmare!!!! Do not use this company.

Amazon took cash for positive reviews
Thursday 11 February 1999
The embarrassing setbacks come as the stock market rethinks its love affair with the Internet and other electronic traders also hit problems. E-commerce is coming of age in the US, and it is proving painful.
Amazon.com lists thousands of books on its website, with comments and recommendations, as well as a best-seller list. Customers can buy these electronically and have them delivered. For the past year it has been the subject of endless fascination in the world media as the prototype of a new company, one that exists only electronically. It has succeeded in generating a sense of community with intelligent reviews and a well- composed site.
But some of the magic has been dissipated by news of how the reviews end up on Amazon.com's pages. The company has been soliciting payments of up to $10,000 for prominent placement of books in what it calls "co- operative" arrangements. Companies representing books such as John Grisham's The Testament paid for prominent coverage, including e-mail alerts to customers. The company responded swiftly, offering refunds to everyone who had bought one of the recommended books. From next month, it will list which features on its pages are paid for.
It emphasised that it could refuse to feature books if it did not consider them suitable. "We have the largest staff of book editors online or off, and for a book that doesn't meet our standards, there is no amount of money that would cause us to feature it," said Jeff Bezos, the founder.
But the financial side of Amazon.com has also raisedquestions. It is a huge business, with 4.7 million books sold, 6.2 million customers and $1bn in business last year. The company's stock went from 9 to 199 as investors went crazy over the prospects for e-commerce, giving it a value of over $25bn.
Yet its losses actually increased last year, and it is unlikely to make a profit until 2001. Since the beginning of this year, the stock has halved in value. Some investment firms have limited the amount of cash which investors could borrow to gamble on e-stocks.
It is not the only company facing problems. E-Trade, the online brokerage, is being sued after its trading system crashed four times. And Buy.com, an online retailer, lost more than $60,000 after putting the wrong price on a computer monitor.
Partly, these are problems of success. The online services have grown so rapidly that they are having trouble keeping up. But it is also a problem of age. The United States is ceasing to see online commerce as a fascinating toy, and starting to treat it seriously, not always to the companies' benefit.
Praise for Andrew Morton's Monica`s Story on Amazon's website raised eyebrows mainly because the book had not been published.
"I though I knew it all, but Monica's Story blew me away," wrote Peter Feld, who later admitted he had invented the review. It was subsequently removed from the site. But yesterday, another review had appeared, under the name of email@example.com from Oval Office, DC. He gave it one star out of five, saying: "It blows. No cigar. No blue dress. Just yap, yap yap, yap about some cheesecake she ate last night." That, too, was removed within hours.

The best scrambling quarterbacks
You know about Michael Vick ... but Aaron Rodgers' legs had the most impact
The NFL has never really had a problem with the running quarterback. The NFL has a problem with the quarterback who gets hit a lot. The ability to run faster than most is not a negative to scouts, and it never will be. It's just that players who run with the football tend to get hit a lot -- it's why NFL running backs have the shortest NFL careers by a wide margin.
And that's really the problem with the running quarterback: There's a stigma that says running equals injuries. And it's not about race. The stigma is because of money. Quarterbacks make a lot of it because they have by far the greatest impact of any player. Peyton Manning just gave the Colts a discount and will make close to 14 percent of the total allotted salary for a 53-man roster in 2011, and nobody blinked. If Manning gets hurt running with the football, then running with the football gets hurt. It's that simple.
But if the running quarterback carries a stigma, so should the quarterback who can't run. If you picked the two most devastating injuries to quarterbacks from the past 10 years, you wouldn't find chalk outlines at the scene of a running QB taking on a linebacker. Instead, you'd point to Tom Brady and Carson Palmer in 2008. Both were standing still in the pocket when defensive linemen rolled into them and caused them to shred their knees. Even before those injuries, Palmer and Brady could have had their 40 times measured with a sundial.
The whole thing is a balance. Running has great value for quarterbacks both as a threat -- a quarterback who can run is vastly more dangerous inside the 10-yard line than one who can't -- and as an act of preservation. And it's about time we started measuring the value of a quarterback's ability to run as a part of his overall profile. Based on the new Total Quarterback Rating, the best game of last year was Michael Vick's six-touchdown Monday night beatdown of the Redskins. That's because with the QBR formula, the two running touchdowns actually count. According to the older passer rating formula, Vick had just four touchdowns. This great skill, this ability that makes him almost unique, is rendered useless by a stat that is supposed to tell us everything.
The fact is, measuring a quarterback based only on his throwing is as stupid as measuring a point guard only by his assists. Just because it's a primary trait doesn't mean it's the only one.
So although we know that quarterbacks like Vick and Tim Tebow can run, who does it most effectively? The answer may surprise you.
