Ex-IBM CEO John Akers dies at 79
Re: did one thing right then
it was a sad day when the CV got revised to cull HP-UX, AIX, SGI IRIX, and I think even Solaris off the list of "stuffs that I does", and RS6000 off the list of "stuff I know where to hit with a hammer".
funny back then when Linux was seen as the yappy little dog snapping and the heels of the established big iron vendors. now it seems to be the sapling growing in the ashes of the fallen giants.

on a side note, would it not be funnier to wait until said fuzzy git is in mid flow, unable to pinch it off, before unleashing the gates of bathtime?
otherwise, thumbs up, would buy this if in kit form at B&Q :)
Quick Q: How many FLOPPIES do I need for 16 MILLION image files?
scsi stack
ahhh yes, the old electrickery sucking drive stack.. i think i had externaly
0 3.5" MO drive (650meg)
1 5.25" MO drive (2.6GB!)
2 Jaz drive (1gb) got swapped occasionally for a DDS3 Tape drive for sporadic backups
3 external drive (4.3gig full height 3.5" barracuda room heater)
4 Akai Sampler
5 Akai drive (1gb)
6 Plextor CD/RW (still got)
IDE i managed to cludge together a 4x device adapter for my one onboard IDE port:
0 main drive (5.1gig quantum fireball (512kb cache dontchaknow))
1 cheap noname 8x cd drive
2 secondary drive (1.2gig previous system drive)
3 internal zip drive (there it is!)
now i have
240gig pcie ssd. no external media drives
everything else is over the network.
My work-from-home setup's better than the office. It's GLORIOUS
yeah yeah whinge whinge whinge.
the biggest problem I have found with upgrading is the other software vendors...
"we've not certified our product for windows above NT4/2k/XP" or "office 2007, is that out yet?" or that everyone's frigging macros and addins are built for 2003.
or one of my bugbears at the moment, is applications having hardcoded install directories, instead of "%progdir%" or "%windir%" or whatever. so even that is a problem for some with the installer defaulting to "program files (x86)"...
I guess for all the b1tch1ng I get at work, I am pretty lucky to be in a Xeon powered 64bit win7, SCCM managed domain environment, with virtualized 2012 clustered back ends, and the only place my home kit beats out my work kit, is the GFX card. but then I'll never get sign off for stupidly monstrous cards beyond business certified Matrox drivers and 9188 hardware. £1300 and they're based on the parhellia architecture extracted from a fossilized dinosaur footprint back in the early 00's. bleh!

Happy 20th birthday, Windows NT 3.1: Microsoft's server outrider
back in the day when Microsoft decided they had enough of pratting about with IBM developing OS/2, Microsoft decided to release their own32bit OS.
so they started casting about for anyone making a 32bit OS with linear memory access, pre-emptive multitasking, lightweight, fast, expandable.
Impressed with Amiga's datatype file handling, library system, and device handling, they approached commodore and asked if they could license AmigaOS v2/3. Microsoft would handle the 68k to x86 rebuild, drivers, tech, marketing, the works, and push it as their entry to the 32bit market.
Commodore management did the normal Commodore thing when someone waved bucket loads of potential cash at them, and told Microsoft to stuff it.
Microsoft then built WindowsNT and took over the world.

Ready for the car 2.0? Nvidia preps UPGRADABLE car system

Apple refreshes MacBook Pro range
nice pixel density. if only PC OEMs would follow.
I hope Apple hasn't gobbled up the only supplies of higher density screens.
For my work issued Dell 14" lappy - I had to do a right song and dance to be "spec'ed up" to a 'huge' 1600x900 from the generic miserable 1366x768 or whatever, and it still looks pretty poor. Like it's got a really fine mesh over then screen that just seems to make things fuzzy. My comparitively ancient Asus with its 1680x1050 screen still looks pin sharp in comparison, without that much of a difference in resolution.
I was spec'ing up an Alienware to replace my Asus, but if the 1600x900 on the Alienware is the same screen as my Dell work machine, given the amount of money you can spend on this thing, then it'd be a bit of a let down.

at my cost, i sold at the time under much duress of convincing from family, a very expensive and custom video editing system. but i was good. i did my dutifull backups onto its DDS3 (3 no less!) scsi tape reassured in the knowledge that i would get back on my feet and i would own such a beast again. one restore and i would be golden. parents also had stuff in store, and offered to store my stuff which included generic nicknacks, about 1000 floppy disks, and the golden, precious tapes.
i now have enough of such a system back in operation, i have salvaged a known working DDS3 drive. when i asked about the stuff they had in store, i was told.
"oh we've got it all back, it was costing too much."
"so what about my stuff?"
"you've got it all."

also, how do you "arrive" at your destination? calculated bubble bursting?
"nav" computer to take into account destination system's velocity and direction, given that when we look at where it is from earth, the time taken for the light to reach us is where it was eleventy billion years ago, not where it is now?
calculated course will have to be re-evaluated and adjusted continuously over the course duration, getting more accurate as you go (the closer you get the more recent your visual positional data is). or do you just take a massive calculated punt that the block of nothing you're aiming at is where the system is at your arrival time, and not empty space.

nothing inspires, no inovation, no new ideas. just a revamp of the usual spyware and information gathering bugware that the general public have accepted as part of their personal 'information revolution' that everyone vaguely intelligent went trough in the late 80's/90's, before people became the products that kids now accept as the default settings for their lives.

LG 47LM670T 47in passive 3D smart TV
i bought this over the samsung 8000
lovely picture, lovely screen, 3D gimmickery - erm i mean 3D bluerays work fine. not sure how you get cross talk on passive specs? btw, cinema passive specs don't work on passive TV's
here's what sold it to me.
watching a film on this and watching a film on the samsung 8000 side by side.
once i'd spotted the light pooling/banding on the samy's screen, and also leaking in from the edges plus spotlighting from the corners, i was spending my time looking for and finding imperfections. as once you'd seen them, you couldn't "unsee" them, as you knew they were there.
on the LG, i just got sucked into the film and watched it. even when i tried to snap out of it and hunt for jaggies, wobbly motion compensation, odd light gradients or pooling, i just ended up drawn back to just watching the content.
So, put money where mouth is, and bought one. Initially i was worried about smoothness issues replaying SD content. but those went away real quick. I think the review is a little down on what this set can produce, and sure, if you have the cash to burn, go for the higher end models, but it seems you're really getting into the realms of deminishing returns if you do.
so far, I have nothing to complain about, and especially, the missus likes it. surely that's _the_ rubber stamp of approval. Good HD on this thing is like looking out the window.
all in all, kinda agree with the final percentage score given in the review, (maybe i'd give it 5-9% more), its a good solid TV with a decent feature set. spend more get more, spend less get less, it's your money, you takes your chioce. there is no such thing as the perfect TV for everyone, it's always going to be a compromise. But i'm happy enough that i'm not planning to upgrade this screen now till 8KHD takes off.
US gov boffins achieve speeds FASTER THAN LIGHT
TechnicalBen, my take on it is that you have a pre-agreed way to read the numbers off of the light beam at both ends, and you just take advantage of the phase shift of the light beam itself and modulate accordingly to get your information there 'a tiny tiny tiny bit faster than light'.
nothing is physically travelling faster than light, just the numbers just ride the phase peaks like a surfer on a wave. like a stopped clock surfs a 12hour time wave to be right twice a day. provided you know when to read the cycle, you'll get the information you need. so each end has to know how to read and transmit the information accordingly.
meh, whatevs. probly wrong init. safe.

After earning two engineering degrees from Carnegie Mellon and later graduating from the West Virginia University School of Law, Mike Florio founded ProFootballTalk.com in 2001 and operates the site from his home office in Bridgeport, West Virginia, and anywhere else that he can get an Internet connection. Well respected in NFL circles, the New York Times called Florio, "A leading source of information," while Fox Sports' Jay Glazer says of him, "He's tireless. He's been our watchdog." And Sunday Night Football play-by-play voice Al Michaels told the Los Angeles Times that Florio is, "As wired into the NFL as anyone."
Generally regarded as the best and most popular, independent NFL news and information site, ProFootballTalk.com consists of 40-60 daily "News and Rumors" items written largely by Florio dealing with the issues surrounding NFL players, coaches, owners and general managers. ProFootballTalk.com's coverage summarizes news from around the NFL but it is Florio's opinionated, provocative and often humorous accounts drawn from a wide network of NFL sources that are the driving force of the site's popularity. The site was recognized by Time Magazine as one of the 50 Best Websites and Sports Illustrated writes that Florio "has turned ProFootballTalk.com into a must read for news and rumor."

Best Sandwich in Richmond?
I realize this is a wide open topic, so feel free to break it down into categories. NO HAMBURGERS PLEASE, they are already over reviewed. Best sub/hogie/grinder, best steak sandwich/Philly (style) cheese steak, best Dagwood sandwich, etc. Like I said it's a wide open topic. Not looking for instant advice, just looking to create some discussion. I like the chowhounds site, but it can get a little to fru-fru sometimes, that's not a bad thing, but with a name like ChowHounds it should be good to just talk about basic grub, like a good sandwich!
I hear the New York Deli in Carytown does a good job. Went to it when it was the "old" NYD, but have not been to it since it has been reinvented.
Crossroads Coffee and Tea on the Southside (Forest Hill Avenue near the park) has some good paninis.
Not yet really an "expert" on this subject yet. Still doing research ...
re: Dietnot
There really aren't any sandwiches in Richmond that compare with those made at Chiocca's on Belmont. Menu-wide, they are the most monstrous, unique, and delicious sammy's made in the mond. The problem is, the girl/guy ratio is like 20/80 and the average age is no less than 55. They also have the coldest and most-affordable beer in the area. I, for one, love it more than any other place in the fan/museum district. Not for the dainty or those opposed to smoking. Or anyone looking for a date(Girl or guy) Just good times and good friends - it is an admittedly motley crew, but they seem pretty accepting... I love the place.
re: Janet from Richmond
Good to know about the Forest. I live only a couple of blocks from there. Always lots of people in the place - guess there is a good reason for that.
Nicks Produce and International Market on Broad. A lot of people think it is just a Greek grocery but in the back there is a really awesome deli/sandwich shop. Highly recommend it!
re: Vahound
Yay for Nicks! Love their sandwiches and their soups. I'm in here for lunch at least once a week. My recent fav is the tomato and mozzarella sandwich. The folks that work there are great too - one of the best lunch spots around.
Have not had a Phils club in years but used to love them! I liked the fact that they put pickles on the club. Hmm...10:15 I now have a hankering for a Phils club!
When I was in college in the early eighties, Stuffy's made a great sandwich. I particularly liked their vegetarian pita--and I'm not one for meatless dishes, but the combo of fresh veggies on that steamed pita was absolutely delicious. I understand they are still open on West Broad. I now want to go back to Richmond for a Stuffy's!
re: hopkid
I agree with assessment that NY Deli does not pass muster- go there for a drink in the evening. Chiocca's at 425 Belmont St., near Cary Street, is where I take people to impress them with a sandwich. They only serve sandwiches. Atmosphere? Probably would not pass contemporary health code. A solid place for a sandwich, a draft, and hangout.
re: CecilW
chioccas is fantastic, and that is a great description, although the unofficial motto of "Chioccas: Where Friends Go to Wait" is apt as well. best sandwich in town bar none, but not much to look at.
re: thachase
Yes, Chioccas is a small family-owend restaurant and when busy it may take a while for an order to be prepared.
However, sandwiches/subs like the son of a beast (all made with double portions) are worth the wait. That is why the other unofficial motto of Chiocca's is "don't gripe before you bite!".
The best deli subs and sandwiches in Richmond, Virginia, visit them online at chioccasdeli.com and call in your order for take out if time is an issue!
re: hwkd
so glad to hear. i literally past chiocca's for the first time a few days ago and wondered about it since i'm starting a new job nearby. it looked interesting but like one of those places that was going to be great or scary! :) funny that this would revive today. will have to check it out.
re: nola mike
Amen for that. I'd love to wander into Chiocca's with my six-year old daughter, but not until it goes smoke free.
My favorite spots for sandwiches in Richmond are Coppola's, Chiocca's (Belmont at Kensington), and Perly's.
Are there any really great sub/hoagy/grinder shops in town? I moved here from Philly and I'm surviving without the cheesesteaks but I really miss hoagies made on wonderful hard seeded rolls. Thanks!
Stuffy's is good for subs. The Pita Pit in Innsbrook has great pitas of almost endless combinations. Jersey Mike's is good. I haven't been to McAllister's Deli, but it looks good and supposedly has a famous sweet tea. For burgers, I'd have to say Fuddrucker's and Chee Burger Chee Burger.
re: jella24
Thanks for the heads-up on the Guiseppi! We were in town for the day and had a delicious lunch here. And they have Sprechers!!!! The best soda ever IMHO!
Mojo's on Cary St has really good philly cheese staeks and grinders.
Coppola's is great. The Industial and the fresh mozzarella are my faves.
The tomato-pesto-jack melt at KubaKuba is to die for.
Joes Inn has the best veggie sub. Lots of melted gooey cheese.
Superstars has a lot of great subs too. "Where's the beef" is my favorite. and the "on the sly" is real tasty.
re: cateringchick
The chili dog at the Bamboo.........yum.
I love Coppola's as well. Anything with corned beef or pastrami.
I've heard great things about Bernie's subs but haven't tried it.
In the way of paninis, I love the chicken pesto one from Cucina (www.cucinarichmond.com) and the peanut butter and apple from Lift.
I also really like the hummus sandwich at Capital Coffee and Tea in Carytown. It's packed with veggies and served on homemade bread. Just simple and tasty.
Also at European Market, I love the Arc de Triomphe. Turkey, bacon and brie served on a baguette. It's another simple but tasty combo.
re: RVAwino
My all-time favorite sandwich was the freshly roasted chicken at Mainly Pasta. You'd go in there and could smell the chicken that they had roasted that morning. The sauce they made for it was heaven. R.I.P. Mainly Pasta.
I also like European Market but why does it take them so long to make those sandwiches?
Black Sheep on Marshal behind the Seigel Center has amazing "subs" called "battleships" and they are just that, battleships. They have several kinds ranging from fried chix livers to a swedish meatball that are worth checking out. I would also recommend 8 1/2 on Strawberry St. Simple rustic stuff from arugula with mozz and pros. to a pretty nice italian. Standing room and take out only though. Still a pretty awesome experience.
the new caffespresso on gaskins just north of patterson has fabulous paninis. the housemade focaccia is heavenly.
it's also (finally) an adorable, local coffee shop place out in the west end. so i can give up starbucks. love it.
re: muffinovic
OMG I had completely forgotten about the miracle that is the cheese columbo at Coppola's! I haven't had one in years!
re: NXS
i LOVE LOVE LOVE caffespresso. Claudio is fabulous - a joy to get coffee from in the morning because his attitude is so laid back. Have only had baked goods and salads but they have all been yummy and the made from scratch focaccia is so good that i'd bet the paninis are divine. Love having it in my 'hood! :)
I'll throw in my vote for Coppola's, too. I used to live in the fan, and ate there all the time. The sandwiches were always fresh and delicious, and it's nice to support a local business, too. Whenever I come back to Richmond to visit, I always stop by to have one of their sandwiches.
I don't know what the New York Deli is like now, but it used to suck.
re: pupusagirl
NYD still sucks. Lost my business and I give 2nd and 3rd chances

While Congress and President Bush allow the Superfund cleanup program to bleed out, they're pumping money into a related program called "Brownfields." In January, President Bush approved $250 million for Brownfields, and is now asking Congress to double the program's funding over the next five years.
Spawned from the 1980 law that created Superfund, the Brownfields program didn't hit its stride until 1997, two years after the Superfund "polluter tax" expired. Led by then Vice President Al Gore, the Clinton administration expanded the program, which "redevelops" contaminated sites into everything from malls to apartments, sport stadiums to parks. The program is popular among free-market economists because, rather than forcing developers to clean up polluted sites, the EPA provides incentives, such as grants and tax breaks, which make cleanup a profitable business venture.
"We're realizing there are a lot (of sites) out there that aren't being cleaned up under Superfund," says Kathy Atencio, the EPA's Region 8 Brownfield Coordinator. "But there has to be a drive to actually clean up these sites. There has to be interest in reusing (them)."
The Brownfields program is meant to be "locally driven," says Atencio. The EPA offers technical assistance and some funding, but local agencies are responsible for the actual cleanup.
The effectiveness of the program has varied across the West as city, state and tribal governments have struggled to find businesses interested in revitalizing sites. Environmental groups also gripe that sites are not always cleaned to safe standards, and that taxpayers, not polluters, end up paying for the bulk of the work.
But the Brownfields program appeals to many groups: Corporations that buy Brownfield sites are freed of liability for the pollution; businesses and nonprofit organizations receive tax breaks and grant money; and cities get their contaminated sites cleaned up without the stigma of Superfund.
"The beauty of the (Brownfields) law is that whoever buys (the property) will clean it, put it into reuse, and the federal and state government won't be breathing down your neck," says Brian Lane with the City of Denver's Office of Economic Development and International Trade.
In the 1980s, Denver used the Brownfields model to revitalize its Central Platte Valley, a section of the city trashed by landfills, radium processing plants, and rail yards. The city offered private businesses incentives to develop these abandoned sites, and developers ran with the idea. Six Flags Amusement Park, Coors Field, Commons Park, the Pepsi Center Arena and the REI Flagship store are all Brownfield success stories.
Then, in 2000, as part of Vice President Gore's Brownfields National Partnership, Denver became one of the EPA's "Brownfield Showcase Communities." Now the city is using federal grant money to kickstart redevelopment in four of its polluted and economically distressed neighborhoods.
That same year, the EPA also named Arizona's Gila River Indian Community a Showcase Community. Lured by cheap Bureau of Indian Affairs leases, the military and private industry had set up shop on the reservation, leaving behind messes the federal government had little interest in cleaning up under Superfund.
"Tribes are in a position where there are not that many resources available for assessment, never mind cleanup (of contaminated sites)," says Pat Mariella, director of the Gila River Indian Community's Department of Environmental Quality. In 1997, when three million tires caught fire at the privately owned Blackwater Industrial Park, the tribe was left with a mess of biblical proportions. According to Mariella, if it weren't for the EPA's Brownfields program, the property never would have been cleaned.
"There is a lot of failed economic development on Indian land," says Steve Simanonok, the EPA's Region 9 Brownfield Coordinator. "(Our program) gives them the opportunity to clean up old problems and create a vision of sustainability."
But tribes still have a hard time finding the money for redevelopment, or coaxing private - and environmentally responsible - businesses onto the reservation. Even though the tribe cleaned the Blackwater site to commercial standards, the property still awaits "redevelopment."
Critics say the Brownfields program, which often tackles sites just as polluted as Superfund sites, is not always up to the challenge.
"A less-extensive cleanup is the pedigree of Brownfields," says Robert Hersh, Brownfield program director for the nonprofit Center for Public Environmental Oversight. When sites are cleaned up under state rather than federal regulations, the pollution is usually not removed, but "contained" in storage reservoirs or "capped" with clean soil.
Critics have also dubbed the Brownfields program the "pave and wave" strategy, because sites are not monitored once they've been cleaned and redeveloped. "With voluntary cleanup, the regulatory vigilance has been shifted to real estate instruments, like deeds and restrictive covenants, that will be considered when a property is sold," says Hersh.
Nonetheless, in January 2002, President Bush signed a law expanding the Brownfields program. The "Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act" increases funding for Brownfields, and makes mining properties and petroleum sites, such as gas stations and underground storage tanks, eligible for the funds. In the 1980s, the oil industry convinced Congress that since it was already paying into the "polluter tax," it should be exempt from liability for cleanup at its sites. Now, petroleum sites - which could account for half of the estimated one million Brownfields nationwide - can be cleaned up with money that comes straight from taxpayers' pockets.
"The Bush administration is using Brownfields as a way to claim successes - to show that they're doing something good for the environment," says Allen Mattison with the Sierra Club in Washington D.C. In fact, he says, the administration is simply using Brownfields to shift the financial burden of cleanup from polluters to the general public.
"The crux of the whole problem comes down to the fact that the 'polluter pays' tax has expired," he says. "Where do politicians stand in protecting communities? Are they trying to clean up communities, or help big companies pad their profits?"

What has the National Environmental Policy Act done lately?
It has forced the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation to scale down its wildly unpopular Animas-La Plata dam project in southwestern Colorado; it has given citizens a fighting chance against proposed silver and copper mines beneath the Cabinet Mountains Wilderness in western Montana; and it has lent a voice to people in every state in the planning of roads, nuclear waste dumps, oil wells, power plants, pipelines and timber cuts.
"NEPA is a democratic law: It lets people get involved in the process," says John Pittenger, a biologist with Blue Earth Ecological Consultants in Santa Fe, N.M.
NEPA, signed into law by President Nixon in 1969, was meant to anchor environmental protection to one law that all federal agencies must follow. The act requires environmental impact statements and public comment periods and allows citizens to appeal agency decisions. It has weathered the political winds of six administrations and survived intact, with only one amendment - to build the trans-Alaska pipeline without delay in 1972 - for 33 years.
But the Bush administration has been chipping away at this bedrock environmental law. In May 2001, using the pretext of an impending energy crisis, President Bush issued an executive order to expedite oil and gas drilling on public lands (HCN, 9/2/02: Bush's energy push). While a federal task force has started looking at ways to "streamline" NEPA, the administration's proposed Healthy Forests Initiative would exempt some timber projects from the law (see story below). Now, thanks to another executive order, some proposed highways and airports may get green lights without substantive environmental review.
"The transportation executive order follows the same pattern the administration has set for all things NEPA-related," says Rob Perks with the Natural Resources Defense Council. "'Streamlining' to us is just a code word for 'steamrolling.'"
In mid-September, President Bush ordered Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta to create a rolling list of "high priority" projects, based on the recommendations of governors and other regional politicians. According to a Department of Transportation spokesperson, the priority list will be released by the end of the year and will include 15 to 20 projects "that have experienced or are likely to experience delays because of interagency coordination at a federal level."
Once the projects are listed, the order states that all involved agencies must "expedite their reviews for relevant permits or other approvals." The department spokesperson adds that the order is necessary because the "total time for major new highway or airport projects is 13 years and 10 years, respectively, and one third of that time is spent on the environmental review process."
For already-strapped agencies, like the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, this means diverting resources and staff away from endangered species listings and critical habitat studies.
The order also calls for a task force, composed of Cabinet officials, to not only shepherd current projects through the expedited environmental review process, but also to identify state, local or tribal laws that might delay future road projects.
But rushed environmental reviews may not save time in the long run.
Bush's order to streamline transportation projects came just two days after the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver halted construction on the Legacy Highway, a road that may someday run through a 14-mile stretch of wetlands in Davis County, Utah (HCN, 4/29/02: Lake stops sprawl in its tracks ... for now). The three-judge panel concluded that the environmental impact statement for the project was "inadequate" because the federal agencies failed to consider other transportation options and impacts to wildlife. The judges also concluded that the Army Corps of Engineers' decision to build the road through wetlands was "arbitrary and capricious."
"That's what happens when the administration values expediency more than it does an appropriately careful review of the environmental impacts," says Bob Adler, a University of Utah law professor.
Those familiar with NEPA agree that the law needs updating, but many say the Bush administration is going about it the wrong way. They argue that implementation of the law, rather than the law itself, is the problem.
"In reality, the usual delays occur when the public is not being involved early enough in the project," says the Defense Council's Perks, "so that when construction starts, people have no idea this was happening in their community, and 'NIMBYism' kicks in."
In a 1997 report, the Council on Environmental Quality - which coordinates environmental policies among the White House and all federal agencies - found that the "'NEPA process' is often triggered too late to be fully effective." The report, titled The National Environmental Policy Act: A Study of its Effectiveness After 25 Years, attributed construction delays to "inadequate early and continued coordination with federal and state resource agencies."
"The law was supposed to be a sort of 'look before you leap,' " says Adler. "But NEPA is more often used to justify decisions that are already made. If that's the case, then NEPA is a waste of time. Agencies need to implement the law early in the process -- before they've actually decided what to do."
"NEPA could stand improvements, but not along those lines that the Bush administration is proposing," says John Echeverria with the Georgetown Environmental Law and Policy Institute. His greatest concern: Understaffed federal agencies often contract private consulting firms to complete their environmental studies -- and more often than not, the funding for these studies comes from the developers or drillers proposing the projects under review. Rather than being actively involved throughout the course of the studies, agencies only step in for the final decision-making.
"That's what the NEPA process has evolved into over the last couple of decades," says Echeverria. "But that problem is not being addressed."

Punta Cana Condo Rental Photos and Description
Condo, 4 Bedrooms, 4.5+ Baths, (Sleeps 8)
We always travelled with our friends and their kids.
We could never find a property that had identical master bedrooms and always had to draw who will get the lesser room..... our home is perfect for two families.
We have two identical master bedrooms as well as two additional bedrooms with two queen size beds each.
The beach and pool are right in front of the apartment, the marina with it's restaurants and boats is a 2 minute walk. A Jack Nicklaus signature golf course, Punta Espada is a 5 minutes drive.
We love taking evening strolls in the marina to see which boats came in and look at the catch of the day.
Keywords: beach, condo, caribbean, beachfront, ocean, luxury,
- Suitability:
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets not allowed
- wheelchair accessible
Why The Owner chose Punta Cana
we looked for a beach property that will be easy to get to and will have a lot of direct non-stop flights from many locations. we looked for a property that was close to the airport but RIGHT ON THE WATER. the resort had to have a golf course, tennis and it had to be the IDEAL WHITE SAND CARIBBEAN BEACH YOU DREAM ABOUT!!!! we found it all in Cap Cana. The golf course, Punta Espada, is a Jack Nicklaus signature course and in 2009 became the number one golf course in the Caribbean. The course already hosted the PGA Champions tour twice. we love it! our kids and grand kids love it and you will too!!!
What makes this condo unique
our last guests had to take a container of sand from the beach to prove to everyone how white the sand is!!!
Guestbook comments from the owner
We took a leap of faith, 2 families travelling with 2 infants and a toddler travelling out of the country, but we couldn't be happier with our stay at the condo. The owners made everything easy and were very welcoming and accomodating. Anything that we needed during our stay, the owners were available day or night to help. The grounds were amazing and the ocean and pools taken right out of a postcard. The condo was first class and had every amenity, even for young families (cribs, beach toys, etc). One morning we realized we left our new camara at the grounds marina restaurant, and we were scared we lost all our personal baby pictures. To our relief the wait staff had secured it for us and we got it back that evening. We can't wait to go back.

E.ON Belgium is not interested in participating in the newly proposed 800MW strategic reserve with its 385MW Vilvoorde gas-fired power plant, the company confirmed on Monday.
Last week the Belgian federal ministry for energy approved the creation of a 800MW strategic reserve to be set aside for a period of three years ( see EDEM 4 April 2014 ).
Local media hinted to the possibility that E.ON Belgium had applied for the reserve, revising the planned closure of its 385MW Vilvoorde gas-fired power plant which has not been producing electricity since spring 2013.
However, E.ON Belgium has no intention to change its decommissioning plans for the Vilvoorde plant, "unless the government obliges us to do so," a company spokesman said on Monday.
"The details of the [strategic reserve] plan that the energy ministry approved last week are not clear yet, so we are still waiting to see the specifications of the project," explained the spokesman.
"Nevertheless, the possibility to apply with our Vilvoorde plant is not of interest to us," he added.
A spokeswoman for the Belgian federal ministry for energy said she could not confirm whether the ministry will require E.ON or any other company to apply for the scheme.
The gas-fired Vilvoorde plant is one of two plants owned by E.ON in Belgium. The second facility is the 556MW Langerlo coal-fired plant, which is planned to be converted into a 506MW biomass facility by 2016.
The government decision to create a three-year capacity reserve came a few days after an unplanned outage at two nuclear reactors with a 2GW combined installed capacity boosted prompt prices in the French power market ( see EDEM 31 March 2014 ).
However, the energy ministry clarified last Friday that the reserve would have not been activated had it already existed last week, as it is intended for power shortages only. Riccardo Patrian

Cleveland Thomas scored 7 points in overtime to lead New Mexico on the road over Wyoming 72-69.
New Mexico (11-3, 2-0) started their two game Mountain West road streak in Laramie against a Cowboy team who sought to slow down a fast opponent.
The effort did lead Wyoming (9-6, 0-2) to a very early lead that was taken over by New Mexico with an 11-0 run in the first half.
However, the Cowboy's aggressiveness in the second half forced the Lobos into overtime. A Nathan Sobey dunk and two free throws from Riley Grabau tied the game with less than a minute left in the game.
But the Cowboys were held scoreless until Grabau hit two free throws with 1:30 left in the overtime period. He led all scorers with 24 points on 5 for 11 shooting including 50 percent from the free throw line.
Cameron Bairstow scored 15 and grabbed 4 board for New Mexico. Alex Kirk had 12 points and 8 rebounds while Kendall Williams finished with 10 points.
New Mexico's 11-0 run in the first half started with Williams dunking a half court steal.
In the next possession he fed Bairstow for the lead and then extended the score with a 3-point bucket.
Wyoming was last ahead 54-53 with five minutes left in the game. A jumper by Kirk and a 3 point basket by Deshawn Delaney (8pts) regained the lead for the Lobos.
A dunk by Sobe (16pts) brough the game to within one possession for the Cowboys with 22 seconds remaining. Williams missed the back end of a one and one free thrown play in the Lobos next possession.
Grabau then hit two free throws to force the game into overtime.
After several off shots from both teams, Thomas hit a 3 point basket to give New Mexico a lead in the extra period.
Cullen Neal came into replace Hugh Greenwood, who fouled out of the game with less than 2 minutes to play.
Neal picked up a foul and made his first free throw. After the shot he picked up a technical for blowing a kiss toward the Wyoming student section. The display of affection gave the Cowyboys two points and the ball with a chance to tie after Neal missed his second free throw.
Williams caused a turnover on the possession and created an opportunity for Thomas to seal the game from the free throw line.
Thomas, who had 12 points in the game, made his next four free throws to lead New Mexico to the road win.

As an efficient, accurate and safe institution, SICAS has established reliable partnerships with more than 200 first-rate universities in China, including HMU. On July 13, 2011, SICAS CEO Ms Zhanglu and SICAS School Liaison Department staff members met with Mr. Fang Jiayi—President of HMU , during which he accepted an exclusive SICAS interview.
What follows is a transcript of the conversation which has been slightly condensed, and edited for clarity:
Host: First of all, thank you obviously for your time, Mr. Fang. Could you please give us a brief introduction of HMU?
Mr. Fang: Sure. Hebei Medical University is located in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, North China Plain. It consists of the original Hebei Medical College, Hebei Provincial College of Traditional Medicine and Shijiazhuang Medical College, which were combined in 1995. Of them the original Hebei Medical College was established the earliest and grew out of the Hebei Medical School which was set up in 1915. The original Hebei Provincial College of Traditional Medicine and Shijiazhuang Medical College were established in 1958, with a history of about forty years.
Host: What about HMU faculty?
Mr. Fang: Well, Hebei Medical University has a body of high quality teaching staff. The total number is over 7100, of which 266 are professors, senior researchers and chief physicians, 767 are associate professors. There are 2197 staff and workers in schools, of whom 867 are full-time teachers which including 155 professors and 398 associate professors. A group of experts and professors of great attainments are well-known within the province and even the whole country, 18 excellent experts at the provincial level, 16 outstanding young experts at the provincial or national level, 25 excellent teachers at the provincial or national level, and nearly 40 have taken the positions of the standing or committee members of the national specialties associations.
Host: Sounds powerful. Another important issue International students are concerned about is programs offered at HMU.
Mr. Fang: Of course. There are a total of 167 degree programs provided at HMU, including 15 bachelor's degree programs, 120 master's degree programs and 32 doctoral degree programs.
Host: Ah, great! Are there any English-medium programs?
Mr. Fang: Absolutely yes. Of all, bachelor's degree program Clinical Medicine (MBBS in English), a total of 59 master's degree programs as well as 16 doctoral degree programs are instructed in English.
Host: Wow, wonderful!
Mr. Fang: That's true. In addition to a variety of degree programs which can ensure full knowledge injection for International students, HMU also provides an abundance of internship opportunities. It has 6 affiliated hospitals, in which there are 3566 hospital beds. Four hospitals have been granted as "first-class hospitals in the third category". In addition, it also has several teaching hospitals and practice bases providing students with good sites of clinical teaching, specialist teaching and practice.
What's worth noting is that Hebei Medical University is not only the center of Hebei medical education and medical service, but also the center of Hebei medical research. It has 9 subjects and 4 laboratory of provincial advanced level, and 6 research institutes of provincial level. The Chinese Academy of Preventive Medical Science has set up its Hebei Academic Branch in this university. Each year nearly 200 projects of research are undertaken. In addition three national and eight provincial academic periodicals have been compiled and published here.
Host: Great! Anything else?
Mr. Fang: All in all, HMU will be a perfect destination for International students to study MBBS in China. We look forward to excellent applicants from around the world to apply for HMU through SICAS!
Host: Thank you for staying with us, Mr. Fang. www.sicas.cn
