We might have expected an ornate, harmonically complex Sarabande in this suite, but instead Bach writes a simple, homophonic one in galant style. It is nevertheless immensely touching. The dots over the last four quavers in the first bar are to be found in some copies and can add just the right character if not over-emphasised. The part-writing is perfect throughout, and leads us to a moment of darkness in bars 13–14. It is quickly dispelled with an ascending sequence before the final descent. Now come a pair of Passepieds, a dance full of charm and executed with nimble movements. We must feel light on our feet in these! The first is written as a Rondeau with a returning refrain—a common occurrence in the music of Couperin, but not so frequent in Bach (although we immediately think of the Rondeau of the Partita No 2 in C minor). The second Passepied is played in the top half of the keyboard and once more is a musette with a pedal point. To stir things up again, Bach finishes with a Gigue fugue that has a remarkable, uncompromising subject in 3/8 time. It uses wide leaps and descending two-note chromatic figures to make its point; and of course after the double bar, it all gets inverted. The countersubjects, too, are all chromatically based. In writing about the English Suites, Forkel singled out this Gigue, along with the one in the final suite, as 'perfect masterpieces of original harmony and melody'. Nobody but Bach could have written it.

The nothin' offered in the money market fund world has driven investors to seek other ways to add return. One easy way is to simply pay close attention when deploying funds into the marketplace.
Last week the SEC adopted new rules designed to strengthen the money market fund world (or "2a-7 world" if you want to get technical), which are targeted at increasing liquidity, credit quality and transparency. Without going into too much detail, the new rules will effectively limit investment options for these funds, including the development of a concentration of funds to be invested in the very short term.
A very interesting debate is developing regarding the business world (perhaps I should say the "government regulation" world) that has more to do with culture and sociology than getting business done. The underlying question is: How much risk is too much?
Many readers have commented on my use of song quotes. In response, I've received many good and many not-so-good suggestions. The above quote, however, fits this column on my 2010 outlook exactly as all market participants look for their "own way" to protect principal while garnering above-market returns.
When writing a weekly column, one might suspect that it's a challenge to identify 52 topics in a year. Much of the time, that is true; however, I sometimes find myself with far too many topics to discuss all at once (Was that Billy Joel's problem?). So, I've decided to briefly list several of the topics I wish I had time to explore further. They are in no particular order, although if you'd like to hear more about any specific idea please don't hesitate to drop me a note.
At 11:30 a.m. EST on Christmas Eve, the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced a handful of significant changes to its support of those venerable twins: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Most significant was an unveiling of its potential equity injections for the next three years.
Reviewing some of my older columns this week, I came across the article below that was written just over one year ago. Aside from the specific statistics I had cited, the general advice remains true embrace the horror that is

"Celebrity" Bartending Night at Weaversville Inn
November 21st, 2014 posted by Kim Lilly
What's that you say? You've never been to Weaversville Inn? Well, there's no better time to give it a try than tonight. It's a special week for them, and they've got great things lined up.
The Weaversville Inn was built around 1835. Mr. Weaver bought the property which dated back to the 1700s and was at one point home to Hay's Tavern. It is believed that Ben Franklin stayed at the tavern often on his trips through the area. The land used was part of the Craig Settlement which was the first English speaking settlement in Pennsylvania.Continue Reading

AP Enterprise: US push not halting guns to Mexico
A recent visit to the Gateway Bridge border crossing in palm tree-lined Brownsville, the nation's top spot for smuggling ammunition into Mexico, showed the daunting task facing agents: Thousands of cars and trucks and countless places to stash items.
Officers rummaged through bags of groceries and boxes of auto parts, felt around children's seats and behind glove compartments, and poked flashlights into air conditioning vents, engine blocks and wheel-wells.
A fiber-optic scope let them peer inside gas tanks, and they checked that door handles had not been tampered with.
U.S. authorities screen certain types of Mexico-bound vehicles more than others, but won't say which ones. Two teenagers in matching Ferrari leather jackets had their white pickup poked and prodded for nearly 10 minutes to no avail, while a woman in a Lexus sedan breezed through without looking up from texting.
At one point, a black GMC pickup on its way to Mexico attracted the attention of a federal agent.
A locked silver metal box the size of a small microwave was tucked discreetly between a cooler and a roller-suitcase in the bed. It looked like a gun case, but when opened, there were no weapons or bullets to be found.
Inside? Just an accordion.

The long-beleaguered Nuggets' shaky playoff hopes may have faded on the road in February, but Antonio McDyess, the team's indispensable power forward, continues to be one of the NBA's finest players -- as evidenced by his selection to the 2001 All-Star team. The 6'9", sixth-year man out of Alabama remains in the top five or six, league-wide, in field-goal percentage (over .500), and his defense is impeccable. If Dan Issel's road-battered troops are ever to return to the NBA playoffs, it will be McDyess and guard Nick Van Exel who get them there.

ESD climate scientists Jinyun Tang and Bill Riley have developed a climate model that quantifies interactions between soil microbes and their surroundings. It's the first such model to include several physiologically realistic representations of how soil microbes break down organic matter, a process that annually unleashes about ten times as much carbon into the atmosphere as fossil fuel emissions.

Not long ago, it would have taken several years to run a high-resolution simulation on a global climate model. But using some of the most powerful supercomputers now available, a team of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) climate scientists headed by Michael Wehner (and including ESD Climate Science Head Bill Collins) was able to complete a run in just three months.

The Earth harbors an enormous portion of subsurface microbial life, whose microbiome flux across geographical locations remains mainly unexplored, owing to the difficulty in accessing samples. In response, ESD's Giovanni Birarda and others (including ESD's Hoi-Ying Holman and Gary Andersen) recently investigated the microbiome relatedness of subsurface biofilms within two sulfidic springs in southeast Germany—springs that have similar physical and chemical parameters and are fed by one deep groundwater current. Because of their unique hydrogeological setting, these springs provided accessible windows to subsurface biofilms dominated by the same uncultivated archaeal species, called SM1 Euryarchaeon.
Comparative analysis of infrared imaging spectra demonstrated great variation in archaeal membrane composition between biofilms of the two springs, suggesting different SM1 euryarchaeal strains of the same species at both aquifer outlets. This strain variation was supported by ultrastructural and metagenomic analyses of the archaeal biofilms, which included intergenic spacer region sequencing of the rRNA gene operon. At the 16S rRNA gene level, the PhyloChip G3 DNA microarray detected similar biofilm communities for archaea, but site-specific communities for bacteria. Both biofilms showed an enrichment of different deltaproteobacterial operational taxonomic units, whose families were, however, congruent, as were their lipid spectra. Consequently, the function of the major proportion of the bacteriome appeared to be conserved across the geographic locations studied.
The results provide deep insight into the dynamics of subsurface microbial life and warrant its future investigation with regard to metabolic and genomic analyses.

As reported in a Proceedings of the National Academy of Science (PNAS) article published today (Nov. 3, 2014), ESD climate scientists Dan Feldman and Bill Collins have identified a mechanism that could turn out to be a big contributor to warming in the Arctic region and melting sea ice. The key to this mechanism is the long-wavelength region of the electromagnetic spectrum called far infrared.

Dimitri Sverjensky is a Professor of Geochemistry in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the Johns Hopkins University. Over a period of more than 30 years, Sverjensky's research interests in geochemistry have focused on the geochemistry of water-rock interactions, including the origins of sediment-hosted ore deposits and the chemistry of sedimentary basinal fluids, the geochemistry of mineral-water interfaces, and high temperature and pressure aqueous fluids in the deep Earth. The theoretical advances made in these areas of research are now being applied in two major projects: the role of mineral-water interfacial reactions in a hydrothermal origin of life; and the role of water in the Earth's deep carbon, nitrogen and sulfur cycles.
The microbiology that defines the cycling of the major chemical elements (carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, iron on the hydrothermal geochemical environment. Chemical interactions occurring at interfaces between crystalline surfaces and aqueous solutions are crucial to an extraordinarily broad range of scientific and technological topics, including corrosion, heterogeneous catalysts, chemical sensors, and a host of essential everyday products including adhesives, paints, lubricants, dyes, solvents, and cleaners. Geochemists pay special attention to reactions that occur between mineral surfaces and aqueous species - interactions central to weathering and soil formation, hydrothermal ore deposition, biomineralization and biofilm formation, uptake and release of chemicals that affect water quality, and many other natural processes. Mineral-molecule interactions are also relevant to models of the origin of life, in such varied roles as the selection, concentration, protection, and assembly of biomolecules. These interactions also have immediate relevance to such diverse topics as microbial ecology, environmental monitoring, synthesis and purification of chiral pharmaceuticals, planetary life detection, nanofabrication, and development of artificial replacements for teeth and bones.

Storing water is one of the important hydrologic functions of a watershed. As a direct measure of watershed resilience, watershed storage is important for understanding climate-change impacts on water resources. Recently, Jie Niu, formerly of Michigan State University and now a postdoc climate scientist with LBNL, led a team of investigators in quantifying water-budget components and storage changes for two of the largest watersheds in Michigan—the Grand River and the Saginaw Bay watersheds—using remotely sensed data and a process-based hydrologic model (PAWS+CLM) that includes detailed representations of subsurface and land-surface processes. They used the model to compute annual-average fluxes due to evapotranspiration, surface runoff, recharge, and groundwater contribution to streams—as well as to analyze the impacts of land use/land cover (LULC) and soil types on annual hydrologic budgets, using correlation analysis.
This work provides new estimates of watershed-scale water budgets and storage changes. The results are expected to aid in the analysis and interpretation of the current trend of declining lake levels, in understanding projected future impacts of climate change, and in identifying appropriate climate adaptation strategies—particularly in keeping with ESD-Climate Sciences Department projects involving the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Niu is currently applying the PAWS+CLM model in a DOE-funded project investigating Amazonian watershed hydrological and biogeochemical dynamics, and how these processes might change over the 21st century.
An article reporting on Niu's Michigan work was recently published in Water Resources Research (September 2014, Volume 50), with a figure (Figure 1) from the article shown on the journal's front cover.

Marc Strous is a Professor of Microbiology and Campus Alberta Innovates Chair at the Department of Geoscience, University of Calgary. He obtained his PhD at Delft University of Technology (The Netherlands) under supervision of Gijs Kuenen. During his PhD project, he pioneered the microbiology of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox), and explored that exciting topic for many years. Later, he also discovered other "impossible" bacteria that couple methane oxidation to denitrification. Both discoveries originated from thermodynamic inferences and thermodynamics also provided the foundation for his present work on the forces of natural selection that shape microbial communities, that was initiated at the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology in Bremen. His scientific discoveries received national and international recognition in the form of a many papers in high impact journals, a membership of the young academy of sciences of the Netherlands, a prestigious European Research Grant and the ISME young investigators award.
The microbiology that defines the cycling of the major chemical elements (carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, iron and sulfur) has been investigated both by studying microbes in isolation and by biogeochemical field observations. Here, I will present a different approach: the selective enrichment of natural microbial communities in continuous culture under defined sets of conditions. Continuous cultivation of microbial communities is a powerful tool to investigate how element cycling proceeds under near-natural conditions (dynamics, low substrate concentrations). The selected microbial processes are determined by mass balancing and off-line incubations and the identity and genetic repertoire of the associated populations is determined by metagenomics (e.g. next generation DNA sequencing). The results provide insight into the environmental controls on microbial competition and specialization. For example, I will show how different conditions lead to the selection for denitrification versus dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium and shed light on a so far controversial phenomenon known as "aerobic denitrification".

The Beacon
Fish on Fridays ...
Last Wednesday was first day of Lent -- a time when many Christians around the world fast for 40 days before Easter. As part of that fasting, Catholics are asked to abstain from eating meat on Fridays and usually choose fish as the entrée alterative (sales of some seafood increases to the tune of up to 40 percent during Lent!). However, this Lent is different from others -- there's been a lot of news lately about high mercury levels in some fish.
So how can a good Christian keep the fast without getting loaded up on quicksilver?
Stay away from high mercury fish like swordfish, tilefish, shark and king mackerel of course! The Food and Drug Administration has issued this very advice warning women of childbearing age and children due to the negative health effects related to consuming high mercury fish. The FDA goes further and advises these people to limit consumption of albacore (white) tuna and tuna steaks to 6 ounces or less a week.
Just in time for Lent, Kroger and Harris Teeter grocery companies have vowed to post the FDA advice at their seafood counters. Nearly 30 percent of the major grocery company stores are posting the FDA advice nationwide. Maybe it would be a good time for Costco, A&P, Giant Eagle and Publix to join this trend and protect their customers - especially during Lent.
Until then, check out Oceana's seafood guide to pick low-mercury, sustainable seafood options.

The Rise of the Sharing Economy Welcome to what's called "collaborative consumption" with Internet companies like Airbnb , RelayRides , Liquid Space and TaskRabbit . They're providing access to things you want without the burden of ownership — cars, houses, tools, garage space — even leftover food. They're building a marketplace that's already worth $26 billion, reducing waste and throwing a scare into business based on consumption. But what about safety, regulation and trust? Is this the future or only a fad?
A Climate Change Deal in China, and Calls for Change in Mexico The historic deal between the US and China promises to set the most ambitious carbon reduction standards ever from the world's top two greenhouse gas producers. Also, the case of 43 missing students in Mexico has made headlines around the world. What would it take to break the hold of drugs and political corruption in Mexico?

Talks between Serbia and Kosovo on normalizing ties must carry on even if an accord isn't reached today on Serb-dominated areas of the former breakaway province, the Serbian government's spokesman said.
"Ending the dialog could lead to new incidents" and the mediators should be aware there's a need for a just solution that can lead to lasting peace,'' Milivoje Mihajlovic told the broadcaster B92 in Belgrade today.
Serbian Prime Minister Ivica Dacic and Kosovo Premier Hashim Thaci will meet today in Brussels for another round of European Union-sponsored talks. The EU wants the two sides, at loggerheads since the wars of the 1990s, to reach a political settlement and move ahead with steps toward EU entry.
Serbia wants Thaci to grant Serbs in the north of Kosovo decision-making rights on police and judiciary and to pledge to keep the Kosovo army out of Serbian communities. Authorities in Kosovo don't want to grant those concessions as "that would be seen as a loss of some imaginary control, but they would get peace in return," Mihajlovic said.
The Brussels talks come as Serbia sold 10 billion dinars ($115 million) in two-year coupon bonds today, with the yield dropping 56 basis points amid strong demand. Dacic's nine-month old Cabinet has enjoyed declining borrowing costs amid optimism about the global economic recovery, while extra liquidity from central banks push investors to higher-yielding assets.
Markets Gain
The main stock market index of the 15 most-actively traded assets gained 0.3 percent to 580.12 points by 1:01 p.m. in Belgrade. The dinar weakened 0.2 percent against the euro to trade at 111.5982 at 1:10 p.m., according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Serbia's struggling to get a date for the start of EU entry talks in June, while Kosovo is line for a Stabilization and Association Agreement, the first formal step toward membership in the 27-nation bloc. Both need deeper economic EU ties after the 1990s civil wars stunted the region's transition from communism.
"Two-thirds of the population live on 80 cents a day" in Kosovo, Mihajlovic said. "Someone needs to invest there and pay for the survival of those people."

Whew! This one requires some organization & patience what with 4 days of soaking & repeated soakings but I am intrigued by the unusual spice mix as well as the dainty presentation these should make. The recipe is from the USDA Complete Guide to Home Canning was created by Utah State University Extension and reviewed by Charlotte Brennand, Extension Food and Nutrition Specialist at Utah State University, July 1995.) I include the link because this is a wonderful review of safe canning principle and practice as recommended by the USDA & it has the method of low temperature pasteurization that this recipe can be safely processed using to make a better textured final gherkin.

Residents of California enjoy the protection of a statute of limitations against legal actions to collect a credit card debt after a certain number of years have passed. This is meant to prevent creditors from pursuing unfair cases in which too much time has gone by for the accused debtor to properly be able to assemble the evidence for their defense.
State law sets the expiration date for debt at 4 years. After that point the credit card agency may still attempt to collect on the debt, so long as they do not violate any state or federal statutes governing creditor harassment. However, they may not sue to collect upon it and any such case should be dismissed upon the revelation of the age of the debt.

Anne Sayer learned long ago that fairy tales don't come true. Connor Emory was the "prince" of a rich and powerful family and she was the "hired help," and for one glorious Maine summer, it was heaven. But evil stepmothers do exist, so Anne's "happily-ever-after" -- wasn't.
Dashing, charismatic, and successful, Connor never understood what happened all those years ago, but he's sure now it was for the best. As the reigning heir to the family estate, he returns to Candlewick Island for one reason only: to sell the cursed castle where his heart was broken and dismiss from his life the woman responsible. But Anne, now more beautiful and confident than ever, no longer fits his memory -- and Connor is intrigued. But enough so to risk his heart again?
A long way from the girl she had been, Anne knows what she wants. Armed with a scheme to save the estate and aided by a houseful of eccentric cohorts, this "Cinderella" intends to win back her prince. Because the glass slipper that would never have fit a decade ago is the perfect size now ...

Damaging Agents
Floods and floating ice periodically destroy or damage young riverbank stands of river birch, but young trees are usually free of serious disease. Anthracnose leaf blight caused by the fungus Gloeosporium betularum is the principal leaf disease. Christmas mistletoe (Phoradendron serotinum) is a common pest in the South because of the tree's preference for low, wet sites. It is usually disease-free unless old or damaged (5). Although river birch is host to several species of insects, it has no serious insect pests.

If we don't have the vehicle you want in our inventory, we will locate a new or pre-owned vehicle in the U.S., UK, or Europe -- depending on your location and requirements (e.g., RHD). If we are selling and registering the vehicle in the U.S., we have the option of placing a Special Order with the Manufacturer.
You select the body kit, wheels, performance upgrades, as well as all of the details...from smoked lights and painted calipers, to deviated stitching and concealed radar units. While most cars are built in California, we also build cars in New York, Florida, UK, and Germany, depending on your location and timeline.
In the U.S., all vehicles are shipped via enclosed transport. For international clients, we will put your vehicle in a 20-ft container (or 2 vehicles in a 40-ft container) and ship via boat. If you need your car fast, we ship via Air Freight.
We make it easy to own and drive a highly customized vehicle, built to your exact specifications.
But that's not why we started the company in 2001. We had built a lot of customized cars for ourselves and it was a huge headache every time. The only thing worse than that process, was spending an entire day at a Dealership buying the car. So, we had an idea...
- Deliver a Complete Vehicle
- No Markups or Premiums
- Professional Installation
- Worldwide Shipping
And we're glad we did. We love what we do!

Even the thought of topless photos of Kate elicted howls of protest from Britons intent on protecting the image of their future Queen.
Based the latest poll , though, at least one in five Britons were quick to scour the web for those very images that no UK paper would dare touch. (Undoubtedly, the interest in the photos was purely scientific.)
The results of the YouGov poll of 1,600 UK residents, published in the Sun paper in London, revealed that a huge majority of Britons (72 per cent) backed Will and Kate's decision to sue Closer magazine over the photos taken at a private chateau in France.
On the other hand, natural curiousity has a pretty strong pull in cases like this ... the forbidden fruit, so to speak.
The pull is especially strong among the young in Britain. Almost half (47 per cent) of those 18-24 years old found the images online, and most of those were men (surprise!). Among 25-39-year-olds, that number was 32 per cent. The older the resident, the less likely they were to bother looking.
In other words, while Britain was busy wagging a collective finger at the French, Italians, Irish, Danes and Swedes—with magazines in those countries publishing the offending photos -- a good swath of the British populace (1 in 5 overall) was using their other fingers to tap out Google searches.
The French gossip magazine Closer was the first to expose Kate, and since then it says it has received more than 300 "insulting emails, of which several contain death threats," the Telegraph reports. Only 300?
It's reported that one reader promised editor Laurence Pieau to "never let her stay in peace."
Some of the more threatening emails have been turned over to police, who continue their criminal investigation and search for the photographer. Closer says it does not own the photos and only bought first exclusive rights to them. It has also refused to name the paparazzo who pointed his long lens at Prince William and the Duchess sunbathing by the pool about 600 metres away.
And speaking of Kate, where has she been? After a hectic and eventful nine days in the constant spotlight during the royal tour of Asia and the South Pacific, she and William have gone back into their royal cocoon.
They were expected to appear at a wedding of one of Kate's childhood friends over the weekend in Bucklebury, the Middletons' home ground. Instead it was Kate's sister Pippa and mom Carole who carried the family banner, reports the Daily Mail.
Kate and the bride, Mary Bucknell, were buddies when they were part of the local Brownie pack as kids.

It is the blight man was born for,
It is Margaret you mourn for. (14-15)
Oh, now we get it. Margaret's not mopey about a couple of leaves falling from a bunch of old trees. She's actually crying because she knows that, like the leaves, she's headed for the ground someday. Sure, it's not the most uplifting of life lessons, but hey, we've all gotta learn it eventually.

What a great way to see Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon West Rim and not have to worry about driving!! This was such a wonderful way to relax and get away from the Las Vegas strip for the day and explore the great outdoors. The Hoover Dam stop even though it was only about 15 to 20 minutes long was so much easier to enjoy on the new pedestrian walkway they built instead of having to travel down the winding steep road to the bottom and then head back up. You could see just how majestic this man made wonder truly is. From there we headed to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon which was too long of a bus ride, only about 90 minutes after leaving Hoover Dam. Once you arrive at the Grand Canyon the first thing you see is the helicopters and it makes you really kick yourself in the behind for not buying the helicopter ride...lol...we then headed on the bus to take us over to Eagle Point where if you look really hard, the rock formation looks just like an Eagle with its wings spread. There were different vendors there so if you got hungry or thirsty there was a place to purchase items. At Eagle Point you are also able to go on the Skywalk (if you are brave enough) and look down to the bottom of the canyon. For me I just prefer to stand a ways back from the edge and simply admire from a distance. We then got back on the bus and headed to Guano Point which was really cool because there wasn't one place you could turn where you didn't see the amazing colors of the canyon and if you looked down you saw the Colorado River and the helicopter flying in between looked so tiny that it made you realize just how vast the canyon is. We climbed up this pyramid shape rock formation that reminded me of the tower of Babel when we first got there. The climb looked easy but however was a little difficult when you first got started. We then ate lunch and enjoyed the views a little longer, before heading back to our motorcoach to enjoy the journey back to our hotel in Las Vegas. All in all it was a wonderful way to spend the day.

What an amazing, spectacular trip!!! For those of you who are not a huge fan of flying to the Grand Canyon West Rim, this bus trip is wonderful. It was a long journey but so worth the time. We started out the morning by being picked up at our hotel by a bright eyed and bushy tailed bus driver, who by the way was a real enjoyment and very knowledgeable about Las Vegas. From the hotel we headed over to the terminal to join others traveling to the West Rim. Our first stop on our journey was to Hoover Dam and such a beautiful sight to see. The time and hard work that went into making this enormous structure is just amazing. Absolutely stunning!! We walked up the staircase to the pedestrian walkway on the new bridge they built connecting Nevada and Arizona. From there the view of the entire dam was awe inspiring. After a short 15-20 minute stop we then boarded the bus and continued our journey to the West Rim. We made a short pit stop to pick up water and snacks and to stretch our legs. This is the most perfect time of year I feel to visit the canyon. The fact that the weather there is very similar to the weather in Vegas made it in the mid 60's (not too hot and not too cold) PERFECT!! Plus the fact that the major travel season to the canyon was much less than in the summer, made this the best part because there wasn't many tourist. Once at the canyon there are 3 different areas you can visit and see all by way of a bus that takes you from each point and runs about every 15 minutes. From the main location the 1st stop on the buses route is Hualapai Ranch and even though you can't see the canyon from that location, it is a very enjoyable stop. The 2nd stop is Eagle Point where you will find the Skywalk which doesn't look as scary when you're standing on the ground next to it....however, if you are afraid of heights then that would be a different story. The 3rd stop is Guano Point which was my absolute favorite place and I felt was the most beautiful vantage point of the canyon. From there you get a 360 degree view of the whole enchilada. Breathtaking, mesmerizing and a must see for anyone who is visiting Las Vegas. My suggestion is however if you are taking this fabulous trip you might as well take advantage of the tour options and select the helicopter/boat/skywalk option because with 4 hours of free time at the canyon and for many people this being their one time only trip to the Grand Canyon West Rim, my suggestion is go big or go home. The trip back was just as relaxing and we did make 1 stop to stretch our legs and pick up some drinks and snacks as we made our way back to the hotel. The whole trip from pickup time at hotel to drop off time back at the hotel was exactly 12 hours. Another special thanks to the bus driver for getting us there and back safely and in good humor.

We had a great experience on our tour of the West Rim. Our bus driver/guide, Darrell, was friendly, informative, and helpful. This is a wonderful tour for the time and money.

Highlights of this tour - aside from the spectacular Grand Canyon itself (which is well worth the journey time) include Walter our driver. He was wonderful; informative, a skilled driver, entertaining, thoughtful, managing with humour, to organise a coach full of tourists. Fight to get on his coach!
Don't be put off by the travel time - because of the thought that's been put into the journey and Walter's personality it didn't feel arduous, we had opportunity to sleep, a video, information about the places we were visiting and Walter's wonderful rapport. It made for a very special day. Personally I wouldn't take the optional extras - you can visit an Imax anytime to see the Grand Canyon film (or buy the DVD) and if you want to splurge on a helicopter extra do it the next day as a solo trip to the Canyon's West Rim - that way you'll have a good 3 hours (3 x 1 hour - in different places) to walk and enjoy the Canyon enfoot whilst you're on this coach tour and get as close to nature in the Grand Canyon visit that a 1 day taster can possibly give you.

The tour is very well organized. Different buses pick up in different hotels, so you don't get stuck in the Strip's traffic for hours before the tour starts. All the buses meet at the terminal, where the groups are divided by tour and a detailed explanation is given to us on how to proceed and what to expect. Don't forget to have your breakfast before boarding the bus, as no stops are made but the Hoover Dam one - where there are no concessions to buy food. If you forgot your breakfast, or if you didn't have time for one, the bus terminal has a coffee shop where you can get some to go. The bus was nice, with restroom in perfect using order, our driver Jay was good and very funny too. The Grand Canyon is spectacular, the once dirt road is now paved (which makes for a more comfortable ride) and it is very easy to get around in the West Rim of the Canyon.

First the booking is easy through the web page, good price, we got advised by email on when and where would they pick us up, right in front of our hotel, and were there just in time. Got to the airport and got registered, nice office with a souvenir shop and a view of the heliport, so you see them landing/departing in front of you. After a briefing you get on, the trip is awesome and smooth, you get to see Hoover dam, lake Mead and the west rim of the grand canyon. Everything looks awesome from the air. You get to stay in the canyon for 45 min, I wished it was longer so I could get more pics, and you get a nice lunch with champagne. On our way back you fly also over the strip. Our pilot was Alex, very nice guy. I recommend to take some medicine before the trip if you tend to get airsick, so you can enjoy the ride fully.

Fantastic trip. Best way to see the Grand Canyon without a doubt. Champagne and a picnic inside the West Rim was the icing on the cake . 4 hours from start to finish was by far the best option rather than 12 hours on a coach. Jim, our pilot was very amusing and informative. Would defo recommend...

We booked the south rim tour but somehow it got switched to the west rim tour. The tour center staff were very courteous and changed it without any hassles. We additionally purchased the jeep tour at the south rim and it was worth every penny. Sara (our tour guide) was well informed and provided great service. I will recommend this tour to other people. One thing though - the nature and logistics of the south rim tour is such that it is impossible to get back to the hotel before 11 pm (this is not your fault but the schedule is grueling for the driver). You should put that in your brochures and web site so visitors can plan their next day activities at Las Vegas accordingly.

A fab day out in the Grand Canyon leaving memories that will last a lifetime... highlight for me was undoubtedly the helicopter ride from the west rim airport right into the Canyon. Simply amazing. We chose the tour only option and felt that gave us a nice amount of time at Guano Point, the stop on the tour that provided the best views. This tour covers a lot of ground and includes several components but the company did a great job of gluing these together and we were looked after very well by their staff on the ground. I had been to the Canyon previously on a 4-hour tour and felt the extra money for 2-3 hours longer was well worth it.

An amazing, action packed day! We were picked up from our hotel in Vegas at 7:30am and driven to Boulder City where we had time for coffee in the small but comfortable airport before our flight to the West Rim. We boarded a 19-seater plane and flew over Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam to reach the West Rim. There, we were escorted straight onto a helicopter that flew us down into the Canyon to board a boat operated by the Hualapai Tribe. We very much enjoyed the 30-minute cruise on the Colorado River and had chance to take photos and hear about the area's geology. Then it was back on the helicopter which swooped up the Canyon and dropped us off for a bus ride to Guano Point. There we were served a surprisingly good lunch of BBQ beef, mashed potato, vegetables and a cookie - a hearty American lunch! We enjoyed lunch with amazing panoramic views of the Grand Canyon and then had time to relax and hike a little before the bus back to the airport for the flight to Vegas, where we arrived about 4pm. If you want to explore the Canyon by plane, helicopter, bus and boat - this is the tour for you!

Could'nt have been better. Well organised with a particularly well informed driver.
The canyon views from the west rim were spectacular and so peaceful just to sit and watch the changing colours of the stone.

A truly outstanding day - first with a great scenic flight over the Hoover Dam to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon and then the glass lookout over the canyon, Excellent. What amazed me was the number of people standing right on the edge of the Grand Canyon. The slightest breeze would have sent them over but they didn't seem concerned. Can recommend Maverick Airlines.

This was my first trip to the Grand Canyon West Rim and we did the Sky walk which was so fun and not scary. In addition to the magnificent scenery, Native Americans were very informative, the highlight of the tour was soaking up nature at the most breath taking views at Guano Point. The bus driver--funny, informative, and gracious. Kept us on schedule, emphasized tour highlights, kept up a fascinating/funny commentary during the drive (this in addition to the per-recorded commentary).

Amazing!!!! Our driver Sam was entertaining and knowledgeable! He kept us all amused on the way there and showed a film on the way back. We could have done with more time at the canyon, but Sam gave us invaluable advice re the order in which to complete our activities so that we could fit everything in – it was a bit rushed though. The canyon itself is remarkable. The helicopter ride was incredible and the boat trip was marvellous. For us, the West Rim was the best place to visit as it is owned by native Americans rather than the American government meaning that while 'health and safety' standards were not what you would expect at a tourist attraction, you could literally walk to the edge of the canyon – mind-blowing!! The Skywalk was wonderful but you are not allowed to take cameras or phones so you can't take pictures but you can buy photos that are taken of you: a rip off or a savvy business decision? I guess that is up to the individual traveller. The lunch was of a very low standard but this was outweighed by everything else in the day being so fantastic.

it was a wonderful tour! everything was impeccable from the hotel pick-up until the very end of the tour, it was exactly what is written in the description and what we expected. we were 6 in total in the helicopter, including our super pilot Jim who has a great sense of humor and professionalism. the view is incredibly spectacular and unique. we saw the every best part of West rim, from the basin to the Colorado river, Having champagne at the very heart of the canyon is something to write home about! We cant recommend more about this tour and will definitely do it again next time.

Rosland, A.M., J.D. Piette, HwaJung Choi, and Michele Heisler. 2011. "Family and Friend Participation in Primary Care Visits of Patients With Diabetes or Heart Failure Patient and Physician Determinants and Experiences." Medical Care, 49(1): 37-45.
Background: Professional and patient groups have called for increased participation of patients' informal support networks in chronic disease care, as a means to improve clinical care and self-management. Little is known about the current level of participation of family and friends in the physician visits of adults with chronic illnesses or how that participation affects the experience of patients and physicians. Methods: Written survey of 439 functionally independent adults with diabetes or heart failure and 88 of their primary care physicians (PCPs). Patients were ineligible if they had a memory disorder, needed help with activities of daily living, or were undergoing cancer treatment. Results: Nonprofessional friends or family ("companions") regularly participated in PCP visits for nearly half (48%) of patients. In multivariable models, patients with low health literacy (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] : 2.9, confidence interval [CI] : 1.4-5.7), more depressive symptoms (AOR: 1.3, CI: 1.1-1.6), and 4 or more comorbid illnesses (AOR: 3.7, CI: 1.3-10.5) were more likely to report companion participation. Patients reported that they were more likely to understand PCP advice (77%) and discuss difficult topics with the physician (44%) when companions participated in clinic visits. In multivariable models, companion participation was associated with greater patient satisfaction with their PCP (AOR: 1.7, CI: 1.1-2.7). Most PCPs perceived visit companions positively, however 66% perceived 1 or more barriers to increasing companion participation, including increased physician burden (39%), inadequate physician training (27%), and patient privacy concerns (24%). Conclusion: Patients' companions represent an important source of potential support for the clinical care of functionally independent patients with diabetes or heart failure, particularly for patients vulnerable to worse outcomes. Companion participation in care was associated with positive patient and physician experiences. Physician concerns about companion participation are potentially addressable through existing training resources.

At the dine-in movie theater Star Cinema Grill, concession stands are obsolete. By pressing a button, customers signal a server and are able to order restaurant-style without disrupting their viewing experience or screaming at an usher for a lobster bib. From angus sliders to ice-cream floats, Star Cinema Grill's menu appeases all ages with its gourmet-pub cuisine served amidst the glow of screenings and first-run film releases.
Santikos Silverado 19 IMAX has kept up with the latest advancements while still preserving the pleasures of the movie-going experience, though the establishment is still fine-tuning an electro-magnetic pulse that will disable phones from texting. Each theater features curved screens and digital projection and sound, ensuring a crisp, clear image with no more blinking black dots in the corner or irrational fears that the film will jam and release its CGI monsters into the real world. The only thing you will need to worry about is achieving perfectly timed restroom trips. Before, during, or after the flick, take advantage of the impressive concession area, replete with classic theater fare as well as more elegant options such as coffee, gelato, and restaurant-prepared complete meals, then burn off some calories by bustling your thumbs in the game room.
It's a good idea to arrive early at Movie Tavern, and not only if you hate missing the opening credits. Early birds can peruse the extensive menu of chef-crafted American cuisine, from kobe beef sliders to pizza and sandwiches. But even after the show begins, the snacks keep coming. Unobtrusive servers slip in during the show to deliver orders, and can be called on for more drinks or dessert with the push of a button. Guests can even sip margaritas or signature cocktails at the full bar before heading in to the theater. The family-friendly establishment also serves finger food for kiddies.
As for the entertainment, audiences get to enjoy all-digital presentations of first-run films any day of the week, plus Retro Cinema every Wednesday morning at 11:30 a.m. as well as Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7:30 p.m. Audiences also benefit from Movie Tavern's membership program. Anyone can sign up for free online to receive one free bag of popcorn, plus a free ticket every year on their birthday, special offers, movie news, and invites to screenings and other special events.
The Rumfolo family's blood seems to have mixed with oil somewhere in the past. It probably happened in the 1950s, when Walter Rumfolo founded the first incarnation of The Showboat Drive-in?a restaurant where his children worked throughout their teenage years. His children must have carried it with them, because today his grandchildren, Johnny and Chris, operate a drive-in movie theater by the same name. They've preserved the original venue's neighborly vibe and kept the family?s blood intertwined with car engines by employing Johnny's sons to sell tickets and run the projector. Today, the small-town ambiance has a much larger area to cover, and each of the theater's two jumbo screens steps up to the task by accommodating 400 cars full of spectators.
Guests park at dusk for a night at the movies?a full night, with double features painting the sky silver for hours. Audiences access the films' sound through their FM radios so that they don?t have to swipe a copy of the script and have their children read the parts. Together, families and dates can sit on lawn chairs, blankets, or inside the car as they lose themselves in the plot and munch concessions that range from burgers to candy and popcorn. The staff caters to viewers at any point during the films or intermission, providing a playground for restless youngsters and jumping cars if their batteries fizzle.
Within Studio Movie Grill's expansive auditoriums, towering screens enrapture audiences seated in plush leather recliners and at dining tables. As the familiar celebrity faces in blockbuster and cult-classic features deliver Oscar-worthy lines, sneakily quiet waiters deliver meals from a full menu decorated with more than 100 items, including gourmet pizzas, smoked ribs, and cocktails infused with the spirit of Daniel Day-Lewis. Bartenders at the lobby bar dole out glasses of premium liquors, wines, and draft beer before and after shows.
Rave Motion Pictures screens the summer blockbusters in 20 auditoriums outfitted with stadium seating. The theaters' digital projectors allow projectionists to easily play such gripping tales as Scream 4, a documentary about Sidney Prescott's return to Woodsboro, where Ghostface threatens the townspeople's safety (movies playing subject to change). Stretch out while watching as rows are spaced 48 inches apart from one another, one for each of the states recognized by most public-school systems. Check showtimes online for all the movies screening throughout the summer.

"Agreed, Joshua."Submitted by Cyril on Fri, 01/24/2014 - 03:44
"Florida State House Candidate Joshua Black Says Obama Should Be Hanged For War Crimes"
So, this was also relayed by The Huffington Post (1/21/2014), with this quote:
(of his Facebook page)
"Joshua Black for Florida House, District :
To everyone who was offended that I said that the POTUS should be hanged for treason, this is the man who droned Al-Awaki on "suspicion of terrorism"--not proof--and later killed his 15-year-old son for nothing more than being his son.
This is also the man who sought to have Bradley Manning and Eric Snowden executed for treason when they didn't kill anyone, nor does the US government pretend to believe that they cost any spies their lives.
This would be exactly what the President has done to others, and, as Jesus said, "the measure ye mete, it shall be meted to you again." I make no apologies for saying that the President is not above the People. If ordinary Americans should be executed for treason, so should he.
So, don't stop at impeachment. Remove him. Try him before a jury (the very right that he arbitrarily denied to al-Awaki and his 15-year-old son), and, upon his sure convictions, execute him. Thus has he done, thus it should be done to him.
