Leonardo Plaza Hotel Jerusalem
Location was great, staff phenomenal, room had everything we needed.
Lots of noise from Ben yehuda , kids making so much noise till past 3am that wasn't good at all. Police should have come and chased them away.
Very friendly staff, offering good advice. Next to Yehuda Street, lively area, only 15 minutes walk from Jaffa Gate
The location
Only one spare pillow and one spare pillow No pillowslips or duvet slips No hand towels Is there a linen shortage? A microwave dish or two would be useful
Staffs are very curious and friendly. The boss was just in his dealings with the management mistakes. The waiting lounge was accomodating but small.
Price was much higher than most 3 stars hotel with breakfast which this apartment suites does not.
Friendliness of staff Layout of accommodation Good range of kitchen equipment
Some bathroom fixtures and fittings required some maintenance work on them
Very nice staff, good location (close to the Old Town, just few steps away from the tram line which is convenient to go practically everywhere).
This hotel is a good value for your money and is in a good location
Noisy at night and the staff could have been more helpful
Location is perfect - right in the center of town. The staff was nice and polite. The hotel's manager Chagai tried his best to accommodate my requests.
Very basic, wobbly furniture. Questionable cleanliness and very old towels. Beware of room 45 - it is a shelter turned into a "suite" - very uncomfortable.
The staff was very friendly and helpful with good suggestions on where to eat. The location was very central to shopping on Ben Yehuda Street, the Old City was an easy walk, lots of good and interesting restaurants nearby. Easy to catch busses or the train to other locations within Jerusalem. This was our first time in Jerusalem but if (when!) we go back, we'll definitely try to stay here again!
If you don't know where it is, you can walk right by it. Otherwise, I can't think of a thing we didn't like.
Great location. Reasonable price. Really friendly and helpful staff. Close to Jaffa Gate, outdoor shopping vendors, etc.
Hard to find front door. Small door in middle of block between larger shops.
The location.
A little bit noisy
Excellent location in middle of downtown.
This is my 3rd stay in 1 1/2 years. This time, the shower leaked onto the floor because the shower box was not sealed well.
everything was fine, will for sure come back next time
Reception staff were very helpful, spoke good English, and were knowledgable about local facilities.
Would have liked somewhere more comfotable to sit in our room.
Everything, from the receptionists and their charming manner to the cleaners, excellent service all through our stay. Will certainly visit again. Only steps away from Ben Yehuda Street.
Forgot to ask for a toaster(my fault)
Location is perfect and staff is very helpful , They suggested us the tour options and even booked for us . We also used them to book Airport transfer , who picked us exactly on time .
Thanks for the front dest Manager Mr Tal. He taugh me how to take the bus to Natanya !!! No need spent too much money by the taxi ^^
Location, size of the apartment
Too noisy
Very noisy part of town at night - right opposite a nightclub!
Boa cama. Bom banho. Bem localizado.
Close to Old City and bakery.
Kinda noisy some nights.
Excellent location, helpful and kind staff. The whole city is within walking distance from here. Perfect place to stay.
Location was excellent. Walking distances to key sites. Staff friendly and very helpfull.
Jacuzzi did not work
Everything was excellent, friendly helpful staff, very accommodating in all respects. Studio apartments are a great size and have every facility you would need and cleaned daily to a high standard. Excellent location.
The room I had was facing on to a busy street, which could be very noisy sometimes and hard to get to sleep (if you forget your ear plugs, like I did!) But this was no fault of the hotel or staff in any way.
The staff in the city centre apartments for the most helpful we've experienced on our trip to Israel. location was excellent room spotless very convenient to old city and the mantra restaurant . Well done all.

Amazon.comThough Jackson Browne's albums are not plentiful--in a career that stretches 32 years, he's released just over a dozen--they're filled with songs that serve as resilient touchstones for millions who passed through those decades. Originally forging a way for himself as a songwriter, his debut, Saturate Before Using, placed him at the forefront of the southern California rock scene. His contemporaries and compatriots, the Eagles, even took his "Take It Easy" to the top of the charts. Even at his most anthemic, his songs resonate with small details that keep the proceedings human-scaled. The sympathetic accompaniment buoys a voice that's remarkable for its lack of idiosyncrasies. His unmannered singing voice is an essential component in making songs like "These Days," "Fountain of Sorrow," and "Running on Empty" flow with a casual ease that belies the high level of craftsmanship throughout. --David Greenberger CERTAIN CONTENT THAT APPEARS ON THIS SITE COMES FROM AMAZON SERVICES LLC.

In the summer when The Games Company/PlayLogic/Silver-Style went bust, there was some talk about who might take on the license for Simon The Sorcerer. I read a rumour that TellTale Games might take it on and thought that would be excellent. I LOVE Simon The Sorcerer and I reckon nobody has done it justice since AdventureSoft. Simon 4 was good but spoiled by the voice-acting and I've never even managed to get my mits on 5.
Has anybody heard any more on this rumour? Does anyone know who has the rights to Simon now?
Come on, TellTale, I could trust you to do Simon properly. And I want the original voices back too. Anyone else?

"He likes Elton John songs, he's a Beatles maniac, he likes to play guitar. He's not your typical FBI agent, at least not the way it's been played in the past,"

"'Let It Die' is more piano-based, organ-based and percussion-based. Live, the songs are more guitar-based. The record that we're doing right now is really guitar-based. I feel like finally I get to write some parts that I'll be excited to play on tour for this record."

Yup, I have everything unlocked as well. It's frustrating, tbh. ^^;
I wish Gible would've been there. TAT
Went to RM on my first try where I found a female Bagon, then to SM, where I encountered the same Stunky and Chimecho I always encounter. Then to PF - nothing new there except a male Poliwag - then to The Bane of My Existence where I continue to find nothing but Finneon and Krabby. My last trip was through RM which had nothing at all.
Went with the Bagon.
Not sure how I feel about the new minigame; definitely more exciting than the others, but I have a touchpad instead of a mouse, which makes it harder to draw the lines.

I hate the new Sableye game...uh, drawing those damn lines...
Well, it was half barren - hardly any Pokémon shown up.
Also, Masuda re-tweeted this which someone tweeted him, seems legit:
I have to say though, the actual terrain of Rugged Mountain...I like it. Actually looks nice unlike some DW courses that look so uninspired (Windswept Sky?).
Rocket House available. Both times I went to the new area, barely any Pokemon showed up.

"The Holy Universe" with David Christopher
in Spirituality
David Christopher is an award-winning author and teacher of the "new story," a story that integrates the science of the 20th and 21st centuries with a spiritual sensibility toward the creation of the Universe.
He became intrigued with this story over 15 years ago. But as he dove deeper into this new worldview, he felt something was missing. He missed the poetry. He missed the lyricism of the liturgy and the scriptures. He wanted more. He wanted a story that also felt like the story given to him in his youth. This led him to write The Holy Universe: A New Story of Creation for the Heart, Soul and Spirit.

Speical Guest: David Pennington
Aaron welcomes to the show current Mayor of Dalton, GA and former Gubernatorial Candidate David Pennington to the show.
David is a job-creating businessman who has successfully grown and operated businesses employing and supporting hard working Georgians.
David is the founder of Advanced Insurance Strategies and is a third generation small business owner. He knows that businesses create jobs and grow the economy, not big government.
As an economics major and graduate from the University of Georgia, David has seen that job creation is not just about what is done on the local level but is also heavily influenced by what happens in the state capital.
David truly believes government that governs least governs best. The freedoms for which our forefathers fought and our troops defend must be protected. David will work with individuals registered in any party, or no party at all, as long as they will join him in his efforts to promote economic prosperity and protect the traditions on which Georgia and the nation were founded.
As the Mayor of Dalton, David Pennington has practiced what he preaches. General property taxes have been reduced 28%; general fund spending has been cut significantly; and the general fund surplus has been increased over 50%. To encourage entrepreneurship — business license fees have been reduced by up to 50%, and the permitting process streamlined to shorten the time to begin doing business.

Hey, know what happened at CPAC this weekend? I sure do. Apparently a bunch of has-beens said the stuff they said back when we cared more about them, for the most part. Also we discovered for the first time that white supremacists in the movement long for the good ole days of Jim Crow and the Republican Party's only problem is messaging. Clearly we need massive coverage of this phony news event, which up until a few years ago could come and go like the proverbial ghost in the night with only FOX News and a wisp of media attention.
Yeah, I'm a little bit cranky and it's Monday, but somebody has to question all this attention. Now, I get that someone like Dave Weigel does this for a living, so he obviously should be there reporting. It's his beat, his specialization. But dozens of discrete items in my RSS feed for days? Really? Quite a few sources find this blow-fest absolutely newsworthy with seemingly little pushback that I can see. So here's the argument against all this attention.
- The CPAC audience isn't representative of the conservative base.
- Their straw poll is pretty much worthless. Come on, Rand Paul is not going to be the 45th President of the United States. Neither was Mitt Romney in 2008, or Ron Paul in 2012. My guess is that Rand Paul's campaign ends about when the filing deadline for his Senate re-election comes up, and he'll maybe beat his dad's numbers in the primaries before then. But, you know, it's just not going to happen.
- Nobody really cares about the thoughs shared by Mitt Romney, Palin, Rick Santorum, or whatever other losers showed up to take a defeat lap this year. Santorum is the only one of these three who might conceivably run for president in three years, but the idea that he'd be well positioned in that contest is laughable. Santorum was so many choices removed from first or second in 2012, he was sort of the last other man standing by the time the primaries occurred. His second fifteen minutes are nearly done. 2016 will see him a decade out of public office, with that many more questionable utterances and sartorial choices inbetween. All three are merely trying to extend their time in the limelight, and there's no reason to humor them.
- Any liberal who writes about Sarah Palin at this point in history would be better off just sitting in their chair for an hour playing internet Hearts. That would be a more productive use of time than writing about Sarah Palin. She's like the Westboro Baptist Church at this point. The word is out, the verdict has been delivered, critical mass has long been attained in the fight against them, and liberals who "keep the pressure up" are merely helping feed the sense of controversy the shockingly small fan groups of these entities cherish. The Palins don't even cut the mustard on cable reality television anymore. Either it's lazy people writing stories or desperate people trying to find something, anything, interesting going on there. But really.
- Every speech–every speech–was chock full of boilerplate red-meat attacks. It wasn't like we didn't get enough of them over the last year, where there was this never-ending presidential election, now, right? It was deja-vu to such an extent that they probably just delivered the same ones they did five months ago.
- The two conservative Republicans who might actually have some strong appeal among non-rightwing voters weren't even invited to participate. Given how focused the event was on the presidency, that is silly. Could you imagine a Democratic 2016 forum that didn't invite Hillary Clinton or, let's say, Andrew Cuomo to participate?
Admittedly, the Scott Terry white supremacy story is awful, and bizarre, and newsworthy in its own right. But this is my point. I have no objection to covering legitimately newsworthy events that happen at CPAC. But it doesn't seem like very many actually newsworthy things actually happened at CPAC! But we got volumes of coverage because it's CPAC!! It's now a bona-fide press event like a party convention. Clearly this is because it's been built up that way deliberately, but the reason why Scott Terry popped so much is probably because, well, it's really just an event where the same people we always see say the same things they always say. Why don't we just go back to the way it was?
Dennis N says:
I appreciate the extra coverage Right Wing Watch gives it. I don't need CNN.com giving it more than a few mentions.
Metavirus says:
You have a fair point. I guess I'm pulled in a few different directions.
On the one hand, it's always good news for John McCain when idiots low-information "independent" voters get a window into some of the hardly-veiled cuckoo for cocopuffs shit that conservatives get away with saying most other days without anybody knowing.
on the other hand, it's also good news for john mccain when the msm plasters up endless CPAC stories because it makes it seems like conservatives are doing HARD WORK thinking up IDEAS, and STRATEGIES, and tackling their demographic problem by throwing leftover beignets at brown people.
on the third hand (quaid!), it's inevitably good news for john mccain when low-information voters see conservatives doing all sorts of things, and saying all sorts of stuff, with perhaps the mirror-image for democrats is — um, occupy wall street?
now that i've run out of hands, i'm still not sure where i land. but no matter the result, at least its good news for john mccain
Matmos says:
My 2 cents: Train wreck + Event! the musical — ie, you can count on CPAC events to deliver 3-headed babies, and it's a political event that helps fill column inches.

I-5 bridge collapses, causes no fatalities
Amanda Bayhi | May 24, 2013
An oversize truck last night struck a portion of an Interstate 5 bridge over the Skagit River between Seattle and Canada, sending the portion of the bridge and its occupants into the river below.
No fatalities resulted from the collapse, CBS News reported. As of 1:14 a.m. Eastern Time, authorities were still searching the river for any additional people, though Marcus Deyerin, a spokesman for the Northwest Washington Incident Management Team, said the team thinks there is no one else in the water.
The three known occupants suffered minor injuries, the Associated Press reported.
According to the AP report, investigators were initially unsure whether the bridge collapsed on its own. But Washington State Patrol Chief John Batiste said at a news conference last night that the collapse occurred when a tractor-trailer carrying a tall load hit an upper section of the bridge.
The truck driver made it off the bridge and stayed at the scene, cooperating with authorities. Two cars fell into the water, taking their three total occupants with them. All three were rescued and were recovering as of Friday morning.
The video below shows rescue workers searching the water for anyone who may have fallen in.
Washington's Transportation Secretary Lynn Peterson told the AP that the bridge had been inspected and repaired last year, noting that it is "an older bridge that needs a lot of work."
The Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) National Bridge Inventory (NBI) listed the bridge, which was built in 1955, as being "functionally obsolete." FHWA's NBI gave the bridge a sufficiency rating of 47 out of 100 in November 2012; an AP analysis revealed the state average as 80.
Our 2012 Bridge Inventory, also published in November 2012, reported that 970, or 30 percent, of Washington state's 3,260 Interstate and state bridges were either structurally deficient or functionally obsolete.
Additionally, the American Society of Civil Engineers gave Washington state a C on its 2013 infrastructure report card and a C- when it came to the state's 7,840 bridges. ASCE considers about a quarter of those bridges to be structurally deficient or functionally obsolete.
The I-5 bridge was a truss bridge that measured 1,112 feet long and 180 feet wide. It had two lanes in each direction and four spans over the water supported by piers.
There is no word yet on how the city will replace the bridge, but transportation officials are working on either a temporary or permanent plan.
The National Transportation Safety Board has sent a team to investigate the bridge.

Kate Middleton: Pressure to Get Pregnant Again Taking Physical Toll on Duchess?by Free Britney at . Updated at . Comments
The irony of the deluge of recent speculation that Prince William got Kate Middleton pregnant again is that she's looking thinner than usual if anything.
It's this recent observation that has put the is-she-or-isn't-she-debate to rest, while at the same time giving way to the latest round of royal rumors:
The PRESSURE TO GET PREGNANT is stressing her out beyond belief!
All the alleged "Kate Middleton baby bump" sightings felt slightly credible - at least as gossip items go - because her post-baby weight was holding steady.
More or less, anyway. But lately, she's as slender as we can remember.
Is she so consumed by trying to conceive a sibling for George that it's taking a physical toll? So stressed from her daily routine that it's literally eating her away?
Probably not. She's a naturally slender woman, people. Just deal.
This week, she wore a cerulean LK Bennett dress that accentuated her waistline, and put to rest any of the whispers that she's a few months along.
Sorry, Jessica Hay. Your royal "sources" were off the mark, babe.
Maybe something is indeed going behind royal doors that's impacting her health. We have zero way of knowing. But we would wager heavily on the contrary.
This is a woman who epitomizes class, grace and dignity, who carries herself with a certain humility despite having married, and birthed, an heir to the throne.
Not only was she named to the Best Dressed Hall of Fame, she's someone who's never given us a reason to doubt her in terms of the way she lives her life.
Perhaps most significantly, Kate's body shape has never fluctuated or changed all that much aside from during her pregnancy. Photos and outfits vary naturally.
Let's give her a little break with the weight speculation, shall we?
Katie needs to come out and tell her ardent admirers what she has been doing between making babies and whether William is making her experience some rectal action before he shoots his milk load in her vaginal canal a second time. An imbecile who has been able to find the right hole only once so far. Why doesn't she get Charles to do it? Or maybe she would rather go outside the monarchy and strengthen the trans-Atlantic alliance. Would love to see her come to the U.S. all alone and spend a couple of nights at the White House. Obama would love to go to work on her. More exciting than golf. More thrilling than ISIS.
Comment modified at
OMG give the woman a break, leave her alone. Geeeeze Didnt they learn from what they did to DIana!!
Hold you breath! Give the princess what you want yourself!
oooooooooooooh nooooooooooo, it comes, or it won't.

As I get older I find it harder to pull back the slide of my 9mm Glock and my 1911 .45. Any ideas apart from taking weight lifting that would make it easier for me? Can a gunsmith add some type of hook or device where I could get a better grip?

Short of altering your guns, consider
1- Grabbing the slide overhead with the palm heel instead of a pinch (just in case you haven't yet)
2- Shooting gloves. I actually use batter's gloves, they are light, grip well, and $15 a pair.
Cocking the hammer on the 1911 before racking helps. I dont know what motions you have tried but a double push makes it easier. With the pistol across your chest, grasp the slide with your non dominant hand and the grip in your dominant hand. Push with both hands. Make sure you stay clear of the ejection port. If that does not work make sure your carry gun is a revolver.

I was taught to respect my elders but they are getting harder to find.
As the folks have said- rather than PULL, try PUSH. Video explains-
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.
An old timer's 1911 trick is to set up a three sided block of hard wood that the inside was large enough for the barrel to go into, but not the slide.
About 3" high, you could set it on the bench and use your body weight to cock it.

I've worked at ECH for more than 35 years. The corporation was created as a device to shield strategic planning information from competing non-profit hospitals. Transperancy was to be avoided.
As I recall, years ago the California At General was considering an investigation into the mixing of tax payer funds when ECH merged with Camino Medical (now PAMF). The suit was dropped. Several million dollars were not acconted for.

Learning NOTHING from the many, many terrible movie tie-ins of recent times, Beowulf is yet another abominable silver-screen translation, desperately trying to cash in on Joe Public's awareness of its bigger CGI brother.
All the necessary ingredients of rip-off franchise crap are here, from real-life celebrity voices to generic clichés to terrible padding of the movie storyline to make two hours stretch across one terrible game.
Beowulf is an unashamed clone of PS2 slash-'em-up God of War, taking everything from its excessive gore, having a legendary sea creature as the first boss, and worryingly high testosterone levels. It honestly is little more than a smattering of mediocre presentation and repetitive, drool-pool-deep combat. The "Thanes" that follow you are nothing more than Overlord-style minions that can kill things and move things - but wait; there's more.
For some reason, some bright spark decided there could be - nay, must be - some kind of rhythm-action mini-game in which you encourage your men. This makes them work faster, which is fine... but it takes the form of a three-minute song about whores, pillaging and war that pretty much defies description. We'll give it a go, though: utter shit.
The chunky, blurry graphics are at first bearable, but quickly become a terrible mess of greying textures and pug-dog-faced men, mixed with the occasional graphical flourish that seems utterly out of place.
There's a game in here somewhere, but it's so lazily developed, so utterly devoid of creativity and verve, that it's not even worth giving half a chance.

Qatar`s efforts to prevent the abuse of migrant workers have been "woefully inadequate" since the Gulf state pledged to confront exploitation following an outcry over the 2022 World Cup, Amnesty International said on Wednesday.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel has warned British Prime Minister David Cameron he is approaching a "point of no return" with the European Union over his immigration proposals, a report Sunday said.

As many as 40,000 migrants from Pakistan are part of 1.7 million people who are eligible to cast their vote Thursday in the Jammu parliamentary constituency.

The 40,000 migrants are among nearly 100,000 refugees from Pakistan who could affect the electoral fortunes of the candidates in this constituency.
More migrant workers deserted China`s coastal regions last year, as lower living costs and proximity to home trumped higher wages, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security said.

Singapore denied that a riot last month by South Asian migrant workers in the city-state was triggered by discontent over their wages and living conditions.
Seeking to promote the welfare of "vulnerable migrant workers" from India, Nepal and Pakistan to the Gulf countries, the ILO and EU today launched a joint 2.41 million euros project here.

Unprivileged girls from migrant workers` families in China are more likely to fall victim to sexual assault, a new study has revealed.
The number of Chinese migrant workers, the mainstay of its cheap labour force continue to grow as their total touched 262.61 million last year.
The Tamil Nadu government on Wednesday announced a new scheme to provide primary education to children of migrant workers residing in the state.
: The arrest of a suspected Maoist here seems to have triggered panic among some migrant workers, particularly from Bihar and Odisha, who are heading towards their hometowns, apprehending trouble.
Prosecutors established that the 333 migrants from Central Asia were registered to live in a 480-square-feet apartment.
With rescue teams recovering more bodies Sunday, the death toll in the blanket factory collapse in Jalandhar has risen to 23.
Twelve people died on late Monday when a night time fire tore through a two-story Moscow market warehouse.

The Centre has granted permission for the prosecution of suspended IAS officer Y. Srilakshi, an accused in the illegal mining case against Obulapuram Mining Company (OMC), under the provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988.
This information was conveyed to the Principal Special Court for CBI Cases here, which is hearing the case, by the CBI by submitting a memo. Sources stated that after securing the President's assent, the Union Ministry of Personnel and Training had issued orders granting permission for Srilakshmi's prosecution on December 4.
Dubious distinction
Incidentally, Srilakshmi is the first of the several IAS officers accused in the three ongoing high-profile cases in the State to be permitted for prosecution under the provisions of the P.C. Act. An officer of Indian Railways Accounts Service, K.V. Brahmananda Reddy, has already been allowed to be prosecuted under the P.C. Act in the Jagan assets case.
B.P. Acharya, L.V. Subramanyam, M. Samuel, Manmohan Singh and G. Venkatarami Reddy are the other IAS officers named as accused in the Emaar Properties land deal scam and disproportionate assets case against Kadapa MP Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy and others. The State Government has already given its nod for Srilakshmi's prosecution under the provisions of Indian Penal Code.
Meanwhile, the Income Tax Department on Thursday filed a petition seeking copies of charge-sheets and statements recorded under Sections 161 and 164 of Cr.P.C. in the Emaar Properties case. The court posted the matter to Friday.

Sacramento – Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed legislation authored by Assemblywoman Sharon Runner (
Valley ) and co-authored by Senator George Runner (
Valley ) that will help ensure that
California is able to more rapidly provide assistance to disaster victims throughout the nation.
"I want to thank the Governor for his support on this issue," said Assemblywoman Sharon Runner. "We need to be ready at anytime to quickly mobilize equipment and personnel to respond to any crisis that may occur here in
California and beyond."
AB 823 ratifies the Federal Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC). The EMAC was created by Congress in 1996 to streamline the exchange and coordination of emergency disaster responses between the states. AB 823 brings
California into the Compact that 48 states already belong to, easing the process whenever
California needs to call on them to help us respond to a major wildfire, earthquake or other disasters in California .
"The Governor's signature on this legislation shows his continuing effort to provide for the needs of Californians and to help our fellow Americans when disaster strikes," said Senator George Runner. "It is too bad that this legislation couldn't have been passed sooner."
Normally, legislation takes effect on January 1 of the year following the Governor's signature. So that
California can be ready at any moment to receive from or provide to other states, AB 823 will take effect immediately.

Character »
Eli Bard appears in 88 issues.
When Master Mold subsumed Nimrod, the resulting robot was forced into the Siege Perilous by the X-Men. Once, a mysterious man named Bastion saw himself as humanity's last "bastion" of hope, unaware of his identity as a Sentinel.
Matthew Risman is the leader of the Purifiers, an extremist cult which seeks the eradication of all mutants. He is the successor of the late William Stryker, who founded the Purifiers.
Formerly involved with teams X-Force & X-Corporation, Risque was a menacing vixen who seduced Warpath as part of a deal with Sledge. She gained real feelings for Warpath & later reformed. She was killed by the U-Men and afterwards resurrected as part of Selene's undead mutant army.
Selene is the oldest living mutant, born 17,000 years ago. She is a notable villain of the X-Men, often opposing them in her position as the Black Queen of the Hellfire Club. Her ultimate goal is to become a goddess through the life absorption of other mutants.
Wither was a mutant with the ability to break down organic matter just by touching it. He died after an encounter with Elixir, at the end of Necrosha.
A long-lived mutant with the rage of a beast and the soul of a Samurai, James "Logan" Howlett's past is filled with blood, war, and betrayal. Possessing an accelerated healing factor, enhanced senses, and bone claws in his hands that, along with his skeleton, are coated in adamantium, Wolverine is the ultimate weapon.
Eli Bard originally crossed paths with X-23 as a member of The Purifiers, but continues to plague the team as he seeks to reprove his love to the immortal Selene.

Future of Nursing Initiative
THURSDAY, April 21 (HealthDay News) -- Screening immigrants to the United Kingdom for latent tuberculosis infection based on the incidence in their countries of origin is a cost-effective way of preventing future active cases of tuberculosis, according to a study published online April 21 in The Lancet.
Manish Pareek, M.R.C.P., from Imperial College London, and colleagues investigated the prevalence of latent tuberculosis infection in immigrants to the United Kingdom in order to identify which groups should be screened. Demographic and interferon-γ release-assay (IGRA) test results of 1,229 immigrants, aged 35 years or younger, were analyzed between 2008 and 2010. The cost effectiveness of screening was calculated based on tuberculosis incidence in immigrants' countries of origin.
The investigators found that IGRA screening was positive, negative, and intermediate in 20, 80, and 0.2 percent of immigrants, respectively. Positive results significantly and independently correlated with age, male gender, and increased tuberculosis incidence in immigrants' countries of origin. The most cost-effective screening strategies were to screen all immigrants from countries with incidence of more than 250 per 100,000 (incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was £17,956 [£1 = U.S.$1.60] per prevented case of tuberculosis), or to screen those from countries with an incidence of 150 per 100,000, which would prevent an additional 29.2 cases of disease per 10,000 immigrants at a cost of £20,818.8 per case averted.
"The outcomes and cost-effectiveness of immigrant screening with IGRA at different incidence thresholds showed that new entrants to the United Kingdom have a high prevalence of latent infection, which varies by age, sex, and tuberculosis incidence in their countries of origin," the authors write.
One of the study authors disclosed financial relationships with Oxford Immunotec Ltd., which commercialized the tuberculosis screening methods used in the study. One of the study authors invents patents used in T-cell-based diagnosis.

Beautiful mirror hanging in master bathroom. Quite heavy and a high quality mirror. Can hang horizontal or vertical.
What can I say, it was just a mirror however, my online buying experience was very good, everything went very smooth and I can't say that about every online store I have ordered from. Overstock appears to be doing it right and even though it was just a mirror, it's an awesome mirror.
Beautiful, and have had many compliments!! Goes well with Uttermost furniture cheetah chair available on Overstock.com Will be purchasing at least one more for the house, goes with many decorating schemes including Asian!
Beautiful mirror---Love it---Very good quality- would purchase another
This mirror looks even better in person. I hung the mirror in my entryway and with the dark wood flooring, it's perfect. The price is very reasonable and the quality is great!
This mirror is stunning and the color goes great with the rust, brown, cream, reddish colors of my living area. Shipped quickly and arrived intact. Love it.
Ordered for a powder room but when it came, we installed it above a small cabinet in an entryway. Awesome! It is so pretty and you will not be disappointed in the workmanship or the trueness of the color, as shown in the ad. My experience with Overstock has been wonderful with them accepting all returns with no questions asked. I am a satisfied customer.
Great mirror for the great price! It fits perfectly in my living room. I liked the color and the distress. It looks better than it does on the picture. Love it and recommend to everyone!
This mirror is great quality. Substantial weight, and so stylish. It's the perfect addition to our bathroom.

Product description
The city of Rome is built not only of bricks and marble but also of the words of its writers. For the ancient inhabitant or visitor, the buildings of Rome, the public spaces of the city, were crowded with meanings and associations. These meanings were generated partly through activities associated with particular places, but Rome also took on meanings from literature written about the city: stories of its foundation, praise of its splendid buildings, laments composed by those obliged to leave it. Ancient writers made use of the city to explore the complexities of Roman history, power and identity. This book aims to chart selected aspects of Rome's resonance in literature and the literary resonance of Rome. A wide range of texts are explored, from later periods as well as from antiquity, since, as the author hopes to show, Gibbon, Goethe and others can be revealing guides to the literary topography of ancient Rome.

A court has convicted two NIS (National Intelligence Service) counterintelligence officials of fabricating Chinese government documents to build a spy case against a refugee from North Korea. An excellent article by Choe Sang-hun is to be found here. The judge, Kim Woo-soo said:
(the agents) seriously obstructed the function of the criminal justice of the country, . . . they betrayed the trust the people placed in the National Intelligence Service when it gave it both power and responsibility.
This decision comes after so many mistakes from this agency and an administration that is not intent upon fixing them, though there is much said about such.

By p perkins — Jun 20, 2013 3:03pm
One of my classmates passed away when I was 10 years old. That was over 50 years ago and to this day I remember the impact he and his family had - and continue to have - on me. The whole experience made such an impression on me. I assure you Ethan will be remembered by his classmates. And your daughter - what a strong little girl. Judging from your journals which I have followed, I can see where she get this. How wonderful that you went to the graduation...and how beautiful that they remembered Ethan on their special day. Peace to you!

When a man comes to die, no matter what his talents and influence, and genius, if he dies unloved his life must be a failure to him and dying a cold horror. It seems to me that if you or I must choose between two courses of thought or action, we should remember our dying and try so to live that our death brings no pleasure to the world.
When a noble life has prepared old age, it is not decline that it reveals, but the first days of immortality.
When a person finds life hard, he needs motivation and inspiration; but if he finds life's journey easy, then he needs meditation and introspection to know the true quality of his life.
When all is done, human life is, at the greatest and the best, but like a froward child, that must be played with and humored a little to keep it quiet till it falls asleep, and then the care is over.
When an individual fear or apathy passes by the unfortunate, life is of no account.
When God asks me "What have you done with the life I gave to you?", I don't want my answer to be "I spent it all chasing Silver and Gold."
When humans participate in ceremony, they enter a sacred space. Everything outside of that space shrivels in importance. Time takes on a different dimension. Emotions flow more freely. The bodies of participants become filled with the energy of life, and this energy reaches out and blesses the creation around them. All is made new everything becomes sacred.
When I can look life in the eyes, grown calm and very coldly wise, life will have given me the truth, and taken in exchange -- my youth.
When I consider life, it is all a cheat. Yet fooled with hope, people favor this deceit.
When I consider the small span of my life absorbed in the eternity of all time, or the small part of space which I can touch or see engulfed by the infinite immensity of spaces that I know not and that know me not, I am frightened and astonished to see myself here instead of there... now instead of then.
When I feel bad, I work. When I have problems, when I'm depressed, when I'm bored with life, I sit down to my work. There are probably other prescriptions, but I don't know them. Or they don't work for me. You want my advice -- here it is Go and work. Thank God that people like you and me need only paper and pencil to work.
When I hear somebody sigh that Life is hard, I am always tempted to ask, Compared to what?
When I hear somebody sigh, 'Life is hard,' I am always tempted to ask, 'Compared to what'
When I look back now over my life and call to mind what I might have had simply for taking and did not take, my heart is like to break.
When I look back on all the worries I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which never happened.
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, I used everything you gave me..
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, I used everything you gave me.
When I think back on all the blessings I have been given in my life, I can't think of a single one, unless you count that rattlesnake that granted me all those wishes.
When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it. And I had love, but I did not feel it. Many decades would pass before I understood the meaning of all three. And now, the twilight of my life, this understanding has passed into contentment. Love, liberty, and time: once so disposable, are the fuels that drive me forward. And love, most especially, mio caro. For you, our children, our brothers and sisters. And for the vast and wonderful world that gave us life, and keeps us guessing. Endless affection, mia Sofia. Forever yours, Ezio Auditore.
When I write love songs, people think they're really soppy -- but I see love as a consolation for the boredom of life.
When I'm trusting and being myself... everything in my life reflects this by falling into place easily, often miraculously.
When life gives you lemons, you don't make lemonade. You use the seeds to plant a whole orchard and build a new lemonade brand… an entire franchise. Or you could just stay on the bus and drink lemonade someone else has made, from a can.
When life hands us a beutiful bouquet of flowers we stare at it in cautious expectation of a bee.
When life is kicking others in the teeth, Become a dentist.
When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? Perhaps to be too practical may be madness. To surrender dreams, this may be madness. To seek treasures where there is only trash...Too much sanity may be madness, and maddest of all is to see life as it is and not as it should be.

2014 Valencia MotoGP Post-Test Final Press Releases
The final round up of press releases from the teams and Bridgestone after the final day of testing at Valencia:
2014 Valencia MotoGP Wednesday Round Up: Hard Hondas, Slick Suzukis, And Bridgestone Mythology
"This year's machine is not easy to ride," HRC boss Shuhei Nakamoto said of the 2014 Honda RC213V. "More difficult than last year." Given the utter dominance of Marc Marquez in the first half of 2014, that seems hard to believe. It certainly left the journalists gathered for the special press conference convened by Honda to review the season befuddled. "But Honda bikes are always easy to ride!" declared one surprised reporter. "Our bike is very easy, I can ride it, but I don't get under two minutes," Nakamoto said. "But to find the last one tenth, two tenths is very difficult," he remarked.
A look at the timesheets from the test, or a chat with Marc Marquez or Dani Pedrosa about the 2015 Honda, and you understand the problem. On the last day of testing at Valencia, Marquez and Pedrosa finished first and second, but the satellite Hondas of Cal Crutchlow and Scott Redding were a little way off the pace. Crutchlow was eight tenths slower than Marquez, while Redding was struggling 1.6 seconds behind Marquez. In the last race of the 2014 season, Stefan Bradl's fastest lap was just under a second off the fastest race lap, and Alvaro Bautista a fraction slower. The Honda is obviously fast, but it is not easy to go fast on. Too aggressive, too hard to master, a bike with a lot of potential, but extracting that potential takes insight, experience, and the willingness to push an aggressive bike to its limits. It really demands the kind of dirt track background of Casey Stoner or, well, Marc Marquez.

2014 Valencia MotoGP Monday Test Press Releases
Press releases from the teams after the first day of testing at Valencia:
2014 Valencia MotoGP Monday Test Round Up: New Bikes, New Riders, And A Dog And Pony Show
Despite being exhausted from a full weekend (make that a complete season) of racing, the entire MotoGP grid was once again out in force on Monday, turning the first laps of the 2015 preseason (full times here). All except Nicky Hayden, that is, as Honda have brought only one RC213V-RS to Valencia, and there was no point for Hayden to spend more time on the RCV1000R, as that bike will be replaced by the new RS for next season. Hayden gets his turn on the bike tomorrow, weather permitting.
There was both old and new on display at the test, some things virtually unchanged, others radically different. New riders joined the grid, as well as two new factories, and a reshuffling of riders and crew between the garages.
The biggest change was at Suzuki, which saw Aleix Espargaro move from the Forward Yamaha team into the new Suzuki squad, where he was joined by Maverick Viñales, fresh from Moto2. Both riders were very impressed with the GSX-RR, praising its handling and the bike. "It was much better than I expected," Aleix told us. The chassis was "fantastic" he said, allowing him to lap within nine tenths of his qualifying lap on Saturday. The bike was very easy to turn, and he could carry a lot more corner speed as the bike was more compact, allowing him to hang off the bike more.

The super-successful siblings have already made history this season: at June's Catalan Grand Prix they became the first brothers to win Grand Prix races on the same day, Alex taking the Moto3 flag a few hours before Marc climbed the top step of the MotoGP podium.
Of course, the Marquez brothers are not the only siblings racing in MotoGP: Aleix and Pol Espargaro race each other in the premier class and there's a long history of motorcycle-mad brothers racing in Grand Prix racing.
If one day either the Espargaro or Marquez brothers climb onto a MotoGP podium together, they won't be the first to do so. That honour went to Argentinean riders Juan and Eduardo Salatino who finished second and third on their Nortons in the locally dominated 1962 Argentine 500 Grand Prix.
