It shouldn't be a luxury to get in and out of your own home. One local father whose son passed away from cerebral palsy wants to make sure every family has what they need.
Joe Herr is Senior Project Manager with Tri-North Builders. His son, Logan, died at the age of four due to complications from pneumonia.
So Joe created "Logan's Heart & Smiles" donating wheelchairs and other equipment and then donating his time and talents to adapting the homes of children with disabilities.
And the non-profit needs the community's help. Coming up on Saturday, May 16th is the 7th annual "Logan's Heart & Smiles" golf outing and dinner. If golf isn't your thing, they'd love to have guests just for the barbecue afterward.

Poor customers service. No bathroom in rooms or ac in rooms.
Staff had a poor attitude.
When I had to leave,
the staff at el capitan can all go to hell. i stayed there off and on for a total of five weeks in two months and was treated like a bum off the street. unwelcome. will never, ever recommend this place again and i have wrote an excellent review prior and it was published. the management staff are horrible and treated me like i wandered in off the street after almost five to six weeks of staying at this hotel. never again. try the twin peaks on market or the potter on mission
Kitchen and laundry.
Its completely filthy, bed bugs, roaches, dirty sheets shared restrooms disgusting, rooms have a dirt smell to them. Yes the price is good but your risking your health. There's prostitutes in the surrounding areas so yes they do come with their clients. They need to disinfect and fumigate the entire building. I'm afraid of a staff infection or other germs or viruses.
Terrific place given the price. Was expecting much worse.
I liked it so much that I'm going to try an see if I can continue to go there and recommend friends and family to also go there
There was nothing I didnt like about it
roaches, shower,
The hotel's CLEANING/ROOM Service was very cool. The lady and her baby was the highlight of the HOTEL
There was Bed Bugs and there was no mention of getting me my money back. This hotel should be put out of commission, they even gave me a room with a broken heater that the staff excused the damage because it was already known.
i recently broke up with a very abusive partner and left my home my belongings my dog and my life with one suitcase in the middle of the night. i found comfort at el capitan in the heart of the mission. now, ive lived in or around the mission for nearly 20yrs so the "edge" of the neighborhood doesn't phase me a bit. what u well find at el capitan is a little peace and quiet in a clean environment smack dab in the middle of the crazy. you can not stay anywhere else in the neighborhood..or the city for what they are charging and they keep the place in fine order. recommend it highly
Loud talking in halls carries into rooms very easily. Should tell guests (especially families with kids) to keep it down in the hall ways.
The bed was comfy, there was a fridge, TV, many clean towers and tap with soap and body lotion in the room!
The bed covers, a blanket and duvet looked off-putting, although the sheets are clean. I think that there were bed bugs in the bed...
Love the location!
Moving to a room with a private bathroom on the 2nd floor made a world of difference.
I hadn't realized this is the kind of place with permanent tenants. The bedding and towels, especially on the first "shared bathroom" floor, are pretty ratty, and those rooms are "flophouse" level (albeit with small fridges).
Nothing. We we looking for a hotel to stay not a hostel.
Poor Facility Dirty bathrooms Only few bathrooms for over 20 rooms in one floor Not worth the money spent
I love the Mission District and this is perfect. And the price if booked early is nearly the best in all of SFO.
Bathrooms need updating and maintenance. Nightly toilet stuffing by some of the permanent residents. Bedbugs--killed 2 bloody ones and found 6 more on back of headboard. Wifi has very short lease--need to reenter name and password several times a day. This is basically a residence hotel that rents extra rooms to tourists.
wifi, 24 reception, baggage drop, 2 big towels
bed showers , stinking smell at the hotel, some people live at the place its not only hotel. i got scabies from the linen!!
Efficiency hotel in the mission with fairly clean rooms and gross bathrooms. At some point they fixed the rooms up a bit. For San Francisco is good for last minute. Good for the mission area.
Bugs! Bugs! Bugs!
Location was reasonable, with a bar right down stairs
The place was filthy and they made two unathorised charges on my credit card that I am still trying to have reversed.
The staff. They were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Perfect for a single man or a couple to stay on a budget. Right outside the front door on Mission Street is all the character you could ask for in a SF location, the bus near and the BART within a couple of blocks to take you just about anywhere in the city.
Not really dislikes, just a couple of observations. Wood floors should have a throw rug or two in the room. And the bathroom as well (no bath mat to step out of the shower onto - I had to use the extra towel). Also, if I were a single woman, this might not be the place for me, but with the right room location, should be fine.
In the mission area=close to everything, muni transportation all day and night. plenty of bars, clubs and restaurants.
No fan on summer, no air conditioning=bring your own if needed.. No Shower in room, but no problem if you shower early=busy 7:30 to 9:30
There were good fresh fruit and veg shops nearby. Good tram service to the financial district and Ferry station. The room was OK and there was a fridge and wide screen TV. The bed and room were cleaned daily. We could leave our luggage safely at the reception on our last day.
We chose a shared bathroom option but the bathrooms were not really that clean and they were often occupied. Close to city but the area was rundown and there were many homeless people. The pavements were grubby. We did not go out after dark.
-Bed bugs -No toilet paper in the shared bathroom -Windows that would not close making the room so chilly that we could barely sleep -Extremely unhygienic
You can hear every word of the people in the rooms around you. Shared bathrooms were dirty, there was not even a sink in the bathroom, but in the bedroom.

Management Practices: Are Not For Profits Different?
Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of good management for firm performance. Here, we focus on management in not-for-profits (NFPs). We present a model predicting that management quality will be lower in NFPs compared to for-profits (FPs), but that outputs may not be worse if managers are altruistic. Using a tried and tested survey of management practices, we find that NFPs score lower than FPs but also that, while the relationship between management scores and outputs holds for FPs, the same is not true for NFPs. One implication is that management practices that work for FPs may be less effective in driving performance in NFPs.

Bol Bachchan is a 2012 Bollywood romantic action comedy film. The film, made on a budget of 700 million (US$11 million),[1] is inspired by the 1979 film, Gol Maal. Bol Bachchan's official trailer was released on 24 May 2012[2] and the film was released on 6 July 2012 in around 2575 screens worldwide with 2700 prints. It received mixed critical acclaim but had a good opening at the box office.[3] The film reportedly made a record for its advance bookings.[4][5] It was remade in Telugu as Masala with Venkatesh and Ram Pothineni reprised the roles of Ajay Devgan and Abhishek Bachchan respectively.
Abbas Ali (Abhishek Bachchan) lives in Chandni Chowk with his sister Sania (Asin Thottumkal). When they lose a case regarding their ancestral property which was taken from them by deception. Their well wisher and family friend, Shastri (Asrani), advises and convinces them to move to his village Ranakpur where he assures Abbas that he will get him a job at his boss', Prithviraj Raghuvanshi's (Ajay Devgn), place. Pritvhiraj is a powerful but kind-hearted man who hates lies and liars, and punishes them very harshly. Abbas and Sania arrive at Ranakpur and meet up with Abbas' friend Ravi (Krishna Abhishek), Shastri's son, who runs a drama company with his friends. Abbas learns that there is a temple at the border of Ranakpur and Kherwada, the village where Prithviraj's cousin Vikrant Raghuvanshi (Jeetu Varma) is powerful. The two cousins are arch enemies. The temple, being at the border of two villages, was disputed and locked for years.
The plot begins when a child falls into the well of the temple and Abbas breaks the lock of the temple to save the child. When Prithviraj arrives at the scene, Ravi tells Abbas' name as Abhishek Bachchan to Pritvhiraj, to avoid religious controversies of a temple being broken-open by a Muslim. Initially Prithviraj hires Abhishek Bachchan (Abbas) and is happy with his work, but Ravi and his friends have to come up with a new plan when Prithviraj spots Abhishek (Abbas) celebrating Eid as a Muslim. Ravi convinces Prithviraj that the one who he saw celebrating Eid was actually Abbas, an effeminate man and classical Kathak dancer. Things become worse for Abbas and Ravi when Prithviraj, actually with a kind intention, hires Abbas for teaching Kathak to his sister Radhika (Prachi Desai). How Abbas manages his dual life, by using tricks like employing Zohra (Archana Puran Singh) to be his mother Madhumati, without letting Prithviraj know forms the crux of the story.

The film was originally expected for a Diwali 2011 release, though was postponed to 2012.[6] On Dussehra 2011, director Rohit Shetty who previously directed the comedy flick, Golmaal 3 (2010), did first give actor Ajay Devgn an offer for Golmaal 4, but Devgn claimed "Golmaal 4 will happen next to next year. It's necessary to have two years gap between two Golmaal films. It's not good if it comes every year." After the announcement, it was added that Bol Bachchan will be made before Golmaal 4.[7] In January 2011, it was revealed that actress Asin was roped in for the first female lead after Bipasha Basu rejected the role. Earlier, actress Genelia D'Souza was signed to play the second female lead, but due to her differences with the makers, she opted out of the project and hence the role was offered to Prachi Desai.[8]
In Jubilee Comedy Circus, Krushna Abhishek did a performance of Rohit Shetty never giving him a film role to do but having promised him in earlier seasons of the show, Rohit was so impressed by the performance, he decided to give Krushna a role in Bol Bachchan. Shetty also added co-host Archana Puran Singh from the same show to the film cast. It was revealed in the 300th episode special of Comedy Circus, where Rohit Shetty was a guest judge, that Paresh Ganatra was among the cast.[9] The film has been shot at various locations,[10] including Rohit Shetty's seemingly favourite Panchgani and Chomu Palace,[11] among other locations.

Bol Bachchan was released on 6 July 2012 in 2575 screens in India.[14] Upon release, the film received mixed critical response, but strong box office collections by the end its first weekend. On the review aggregator website Top10Bollywood, the film scored 2.31, based on 34 reviews.[15]
Critical reception[edit]
On positive side, Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 4 out of 5 stars and said, "On the whole, Bol Bachchan is a dhamaal entertainer that has the Rohit Shetty stamp all over it. A film that pays homage to the cinema of the 1970s and 1980s, especially the ones made by Manmohan Desai. Big stars, big visuals, big entertainment, Bol Bachchan has it all."[16] Devesh Sharma of Filmfare also awarded the film 4 out of 5 stars and commented, "How we wish director Rohit Shetty had kept aside his passion of blowing up vehicles wholescale just this once. The exaggerated action scenes eat into the narrative and jar the pace. Would this film be a crowd pleaser– well yes. It's a good leave-your-brains-behind product that Shetty is famous for. There are flashes that suggest he could have gone beyond and made a more polished film but the lure of making a blockbuster proved too much, I guess. The masses would be happy but the same can't be said for the soul of Hrishikesh Mukherjee."[17] Srijana Mitra Das of Times of India gave the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and stated, "Rohit Shetty's latest movie has a constant up-and-down aspect to it, one sequence making you shriek in your seat with laughter, another sending your mind wandering off to the mundane. But at the very heart of things Shetty's madly in love with the movies and BB is his homage to that all-time classic, Golmaal."[18] Mrigank Dhaniwala of Koimoi also gave the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and concluded, "On the whole, Bol Bachchan delivers entertainment in huge dollops. For that, it will earn the love of the paying public and will have a successful run at the box-office."[19] Gaurav Malani of Times of India gave the film a positive feedback and said, "For a (pleasant) change, Rohit Shetty doesn't do Golmaal 'his' style. Rather he does Golmaal in its 'original' form and that's what creates a decent difference, making Bol Bachchan fairly entertaining!".[20]
Sukanya Verma of Rediff gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars and stated, "Bol Bachchan is dispensable cinema, forgotten almost immediately after it's over. What I kept wondering is how does Asrani who acted in Mukerjee's acclaimed films like Chupke Chupke, Abhimaan, Bawarchi feel about working in the remake of a film where the hero wore his kurta. Don't know what I'm talking about? You deserve Bol Bachchan. But if you do, you must have already begun scouting for your copy of Gol Maal somewhere."[21] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars and commented, "If your nosy is not turned up too high, Bol Bachchan, less blaring than your standard Rohit Shetty comedy, can give you sporadic chuckles, and a few helpess laughs. Can't expect more."[22] Vinayak Chakravorthy of India Today gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars and concluded, "Far from being LOL stuff, Bol Bachchan ends up being Bore Bachchan, with a lame climax."[23]
The film received some negative reviews. Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN gave the film 2 out of 5 stars and said, "Even if you're a fan of Rohit Shetty's cinema, it's unlikely your chest will become a blouse over this one!"[24] Blessy Chettiar of DNA India gave the film 2 out of 5 stars and commented, "If you liked the Shetty Golmaals and Singham, this review will only be bol bachchan for you. Have fun while it lasts."[25] Ananya Bhattacharya of Zee News gave the film and said, "They say what can't be cured, must be endured. Once you give in to that adage and ask your white matter to exit the theatre, you will enjoy the film. Watch 'Bol Bachchan' just for laughing."[26] Aniruddha Guha of DNA India gave the film 2 out of 5 stars and stated, "Bol Bachchan, overall, falls short of being a laugh riot in spite of having the ammunition for it. In its current form, it's best enjoyed inebriated."[27] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave the film 1.5 out of 5 stars and concluded that "Bol Bachchan is a comedy so absurd that it could reduce you to tears of despair. Conversely, if you have the stomach for such rampant silliness, it might propel you into paroxysms of delight. The call is entirely yours."[28] Kunal Guha of Yahoo! India rated the movie 1 out of 5 stars and said, "Bol Bachchan (BB) jams chopsticks up the nose of Hrishikesh Mukherjee's comic classic 'Gol Maal' and digs itself six feet under with it. While the story is same in theory, being a Rohit Shetty film only adds some cars nailing somersaults, trucks attempting a ballet, baddies playing mid-air Garba after being biffed and Ajay Devgn drawing his eyebrows close enough to show that he means business."[29]

Rapala X-Rap XR04 Lures are the dream lures of the 21st century. This is where technical innovation meets Rapala fishing smarts to create a lure like nothing that has hit the water before.
Rapala X-Rap Lures feature a premium finish that includes prominent scales and lateral line on the fuselage to capture and flash light like a beacon. This Rapala slashbait cuts, darts and slashes its way through the water. Intended for trout and panfish, with an internal long-cast system built in, fishing the X-Rap XR04 will get any angler's adrenaline pumping. These are suspending baits, whose natural buoyancy suspends the lure during pauses in the retrieve.
Features of Rapala X-Rap XR04 Lures include:
Specifications for Rapala X-Rap XR04 Lures can be seen in the Specifications tab above.
Hi Everybody!- I boughty all 11 colors of the 04 X-rap from Fish USA to give my family to use on the St. Johns River in Florida.So far,they've only had 1 chance to use these lures,and they turned out to be a smash on a branch off the St. Johns called the Wekiva River.These lures caught every species-redbreasts,shellcrackers,specks,largemouths, and my sis even ended up boating a catfish which hit the X-Rap while she was popping it on top("whipping")! They had such a good day that they ended up changing colors to see if there were any the fish WOULDN'T bite!....And ALL colors ended up working.A true sign of a timeless lure sure to be around forever.One thing sis wants to know is why there's no chartreuse back...her fav color.Well,Rapala will eventually get there,I'm sure.Thanx again to Fish USA for offering a great lure at the best price.Good job,y'all!

UK Communist website abused by Chinese hackers
The website of the Communist Party Of Britain has been infected with malicious code. Infection by the iFrame-F script coincided with local and European election in the UK, marking a time when the minority party website would have had far more visitors than normal. The affected file on the website is associated with serving up …
Recent hacks
This may not have anything to do with the websites's content. For example, several large hosting services have been recently attacked from China. A line of javascript was inserted into pages, calling an Adobe Flash exploit. For example:
<SCRIPT src="Sputnik_files/avqwb_cn.swf"></SCRIPT>
I recommend running the Secunia scanner, since recent hackers seem to be targetting Flash, Quicktime and the Java runtime.
It's all a commie plot
Supposedly the code targets Windows machines only. Windows is, as everyone knows, a hard-core capitalist OS. So the chaps browsing the commie website from a windows machine are obviously capitalist spies hell-bent to sabotage the People's aspirations to a better life. Hence the malware, embedded deep on the site by the webmaster, through a proxy on China (to dodge the legal spat).
Prove me wrong
Which communist party?
CPGB - old Russia lovers, although they would deny it (Russian funding did come out in the 80's, much to their embarrassment).
RCPB(ML) - We love Albania, oh shit, what have we said?
(We used to love Mao but he was a revisionist who turned his back on Albania so he must be wrong) R generally stands for revolutionary and the ML means Marxist-Leninist (as in we started out pro China before we weren't).
RCP - became Living Marxism, became spiked!
Of them all I think only spiked would have the brains to do anything with multi media.
I bet there's more.
It uses silverlight?
It's bad enough that none windows users can't use itvplayer let alone find out what the communists will do for us if we vote for them!
MOA is where the men went to with their dog. spot
Communist XP
Considering that piracy of Microsoft platforms is rampant in many Communist countries...that's kind of shooting yourself in the foot, no?
@ Pierre
I can prove you right.
From the name of the infection we can tell it is an Apple construct, originating from their eastern development centre at Commi-tino.
Apple, as we all know, has trademarked all applications of a lower-case "i" followed by a capital letter, and if Apple wasn't involved then these hackers would also be guilty of trademark infringement.
I for one find that hard to believe, because they wouldn't want to face the wrath of those hard-line Chinese trademark cops!
"The affected file on the website is associated with serving up Microsoft Silverlight script, suggesting an important part of the site's multimedia environment was affected by the security breach"
Surely it can't be an important part, if it serves up Silverlight?
Fifth Colunist removed
Thanks for the heads up on the infection - we have now addressed the issue and resolved the underlying problem - The underlying problem of Capitalism will take a little longer to solve but rest assured we are on that too.
Andy Goodall
National Organiser Communist Party
if this is the cpgb.org.uk site
then it's still infected.
And it seems their site runs on Win 2003, who says Linux is for Commies!
Freud says...
I really hope I'm not the only one who read the subhead as 'Moist Malware Mayhem.'
No, it's indeed "Moaist": followers of and adherents to great big extinct birds...
Trouble with Chinese exploits is...
....an hour later you feel like another one.
Oh lol.
Commies deserve it. Take that crap back to north korea or 1980s russia.

hahahahahahaha, ok that was good! You made my afternoon!

The Great Debate: or "When All You Have is a Reporter, Every Analysis Looks Like a Nail"

In the Visits/Visitors debate, side with Unique Visitors
Analysis doesn't happen in a vacuum. And as we've said a thousand times: you can torture the numbers to confess to … uh, we mean, rationalize … just about anything.
Matt Belkin of Omniture blogged recently about the differences between Visits and Unique Visitors [1] as they relate to measuring reach and as they factor into the Conversion Rate formula. Matt argues that Conversions per Visit is more important than Conversions per Unique Visitor. We occasionally see our own clients make this sort of slip-up, so it's worth examining the merits of the argument.

See you there!
When I transfer clips from my digital camera to my computer, I briefly check that the video transferred successfully. For images, this is usually a matter of opening a few of them - for video files I usually load them in Media Player and seek to a couple of different points. Mine is hardly a fail proof system, but it's fairly quick and it makes me feel a little safer about deleting the originals from the camera. :) One day I got to thinking that it would be pretty easy to automatically generate a set of video thumbnails instead of seeking around manually...
So I did some research into video frame capture with WPF and found that it boiled down to a few main ideas:
Because of the asynchronous nature of the video frame updates, attempting to capture multiple frames in rapid succession (ex: seek, capture, seek, capture, ...) resulted in duplicate frames every time the capture occurred too soon for the frame's content to update (which was most of the time!). This was clearly unsuitable for my scenario because I wanted my application to generate its thumbnails as quickly as possible. After a bit of experimentation and playing around, I arrived at a technique that seems to work quite reliably in practice.
I wrote a simple WPF application to show how it works - here's an image of VideoThumbnailer displaying a summary of a video of someone tubing in the snow:
(The complete source code to VideoThumbnailer is available as an attachment to this post.)
The technique itself is fairly simple, if not entirely as straightforward as it would be if changes to the Position property were synchronous:
There's nothing particularly clever going on here, but there are a few complicating circumstances worth mentioning:
Having implemented the technique above, we should have a fast, reliable solution for video file thumbnail generation that works with a wide variety of file types by virtue of the underlying operating system's support. And, indeed, VideoThumbnailer works fine with all the WMV, DVR-MS, MPEG, and AVI files I've tried (and probably supports some other types I didn't try). There are plenty of changes one could make to VideoThumbnailer to make it a more useful application, but I hope it serves pretty well as a concrete example of the concepts discussed here.
Happy frame grabbing!

A favorite recipe using Chinese-style dried sausage?
Anybody have one they would be willing to share?
re: alex8alot
Details would be appreciated. I like the idea of including veg. for health reasons, but, being lazy, would not like to have to cook them separately if possible. I'm also tempted to combine the sausage with some dried mushrooms. Ever used them as (part of) the vegetables?
re: Joebob
Yes, we like the dried mushrooms. I just sok them in hot water beforehand. And to avoid cooking the veg separately, you just throw them on later on in the steaming process.
1. soak the sticky rice overnight
2. Fry up your sausage pieces (some recipes said to boil them first, but I didn't notice a difference when I did)
3. Fry up savory bits (green onion, onion, garlic, whatever)
4. Add drained rice and sauce (hoisin, soy sauce, sugar)
5. Wrap in a cheesecloth and place in steamer
6. Fluff up ocasionally
7. towards end of steaming (I like my rice quite soft so over an hour), add veg (mushrooms, peas, broccoli florets, cauliflower, diced carrot as some possibilites)
This one is easy and I believe it was a favorite of Julia Child's and presently Ming Tsai. While watching their respective shows, they both mentioned it.
Chinese sausage and egg fried rice. To add depth of flavor, sometimes I add chicken bouillon to the initial making of the rice. My secret ingredient in the actual preparation of the fried rice is to add some sesame oil.
I know you can figure out any other of your favorite ingredients to add.
snow peas with chinese sausage. this is very easy. slice 4 sausages ab1/4 " thick string 12 oz. snow peas. in a hot skillet add the sausages and fry till the fat gets transluscent. remove from the pan, leaving the rendered fat and add 2 tbsp of peanut oil and 1 tbsp of sesame oil. add the peas and stir fry 'til they just turn bright green. add 3 minced cloves of garlic and a tablespoon of fresh grated ginger. add 3 tbsp. of black soy sauce and the sausages. stir and serve immediately. the sweet salty flavor of the sausages works perfectly with the peas.sometimes, I will add some quartered cooked chestnuts to it for an even richer dish.
I like it served by itself over steamed rice.
I slice it on a bias, put it in a pan, cover it with water and cook it down (all the water evaporates) until it sizzles and browns. Serve it on fresh white rice (with a side of plain sliced tomatoes if I'm not lazy).
Sausages cooked in this style can also be used in an Asian salad: sausages, sliced raw onions, cucumber, tomatoes, cilantro, salad greens with a sesame oil/lime juice/fish sauce/garlic vinaigrette.
re: jacinthe
The best part about doing it this way is that all the juices (yeah, I know it's really fat) soak into the rice!
re: jacinthe
I've done this too, but it won't give you the caramelized brown bits that I love so much.
Turnip/daikon cake:
The recipe calls for chinese bacon (I don't know what that is?) so I use sausage. Is it the same thing?
re: chowser
you were better off using the sausage. I tried that recipe w/ chinese bacon and the result was an unappetizing brown color because the recipe called for pouring the brown/soy bacon juices in...
These all sound delish! Guess I'll have to buy another half-dozen packages and try them out. THANKS TO ALL.
Steamed with baby bok choy cut in half lengthwise. Over rice. I reduce the steaming liquid and offer it on the side to moisten rice if desired. I do use a minimum of water so it is in fact reducable.

November 25, 2014
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - New same-sex marriage laws in Maine, Maryland and Washington are expected to boost wedding spending in those states.
A Maine man who's launched an online wedding directory connecting same-sex couples with gay-friendly businesses said the law should benefit businesses ranging from tuxedo rental shops, florists, photographers and wedding planners to jewelers, limousine services, and musicians and DJs who provide wedding reception entertainment.
A study from the Williams Institute, a think tank at the UCLA School of Law, says the new laws should generate at least $166 million in wedding spending in the three states over the next three years from in-state couples alone.
The numbers will go up even more when figuring in spending from out-of-state couples who travel to get married in those states.

Polson House Rental Photos and Description
House, 3 Bedrooms, 1 Bath, (Sleeps 6)
Our Queens Bay summer house was lovingly remodeled by my husband and I to share with our family. After many wonderful years we are opening up our house to share with others to start many great family memories of summers spent at majestic Flathead Lake. We would like to offer our beautiful 3 bedroom, 1 bath home. Beautifully furnished kitchen with cherry cabinetry and granite countertops, 1 full bath (no tub) with cherry cabinets and granite countertops, 3 bedrooms on the top floor with views of the lake. Wonderful outdoor area with big patio/deck and dock, and only ten minutes from downtown Polson with all of the amenities that one could ask for!
Keywords: Single Family Summer House
- Suitability:
- Minimum Age Limit for Renters
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets not allowed
- wheelchair inaccessible
About Melissa Newman
After our first trip to Montana, and Flathead Lake, our family demanded a trip to Montana every summer. We recreated for many years on Flathead until we found the right place for us.
Melissa Newman purchased this house in 2006
Why Melissa Newman chose Polson
Our family vacationed at Flathead Lake for years before we found a summer home that included all that was important to us. Close to town, but off the highway, so it's quiet. Ten minutes to shopping, golf, bowling, dining and all services. Our home is perfect for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, water skiing, and fishing. Queens Bay is the best water ski location on Flathead Lake.
What makes this house unique
Our home is a perfect place to enjoy wildlife of all kinds. We've seen deer, bears, bobcats, multiple varieties of fox, mink, otters, ground squirrels and chipmunks. Bird watchers appreciate the eagles, osprey, ravens, seagulls and a multitude of bird species commonly found in most Western wilderness regions.

2006: The Year Mass Media Got a Clue
Posted By Bryan Eisenberg On December 22, 2006 @ 6:18 am In Marketing 2.0 / Web 2.0,Social Media | 1 Comment
"Time" magazine just arrived in my snail-mail box. On the cover was my own mug staring back at me. Seems I'm "Time" magazine's 2006 Person of the Year. So are you, and so is anyone you know who ever created content and put it online. "Time" also extended this honor to anyone who consumes online content:
For seizing the reins of the global media, for founding and framing the new digital democracy, for working for nothing and beating the pros at their own game, TIME's Person of the Year for 2006 is you.
While we bask in the glory of this accolade, I have to ask: what took them so long? In December 2004, Roy H. Williams wrote:
The Age of the Baby Boomer ended in 2003. The torch has been handed to a new generation with new ideas and values. Sure, we Boomers still hold the power at the top, but the prevailing worldview that drives our nation is completely other than the one we grew up with. Businesses that don't get in step with the new world order are going to find it increasingly difficult to succeed.
Being a Baby Boomer isn't about when you were born. It's about how you see the world.
Baby Boomers were idealists who worshipped heroes, perfect icons of beauty and success. Today these icons are seen as phony, posed and laughable. Our cool as ice, suave lady's man James Bond has become the comic poser Austin Powers or the tragically flawed and vulnerable Jason Bourne of "The Bourne Identity." That's the essence of the new worldview; the rejection of delusion, a quiet demand for gritty truth.
In 2006, we witnessed what Williams called "a quiet demand for gritty truth" mature into a riotous call to arms. Monsters like MySpace, Facebook, YouTube, digg, and the rest of the Web 2.0 love babies came into their own, devouring big business and media egos in their wake. We moved from an era of individualistic my.website.com to a social, community-oriented view of our.website.com.
This wasn't the year customers finally took control, it was the year big marketers and big media figured out they'd been in control all along.

Manchester superintendent candidates step up to the plate
The three answered a range of questions at the event, which was attended by more than 100 people.
The prospective superintendents are: Vincent Cotter, who retired in 2011 after serving for 10 years as superintendent in the Colonial, Pa. School District in suburban Philadelphia; Geoffrey Gordon, who retired last year after a decade as the superintendent of Port Washington, N.Y. Public Schools; and Mark Toback, the superintendent in Hoboken, N.J. since 2010.
One of the more pointed questions came early in the event from Elinor Murphy, the former longtime principal at Beech Street School.
"I'm sure you've all come from political situations, but in Manchester I'm not sure you're aware of how political things can be. Are you willing to put your job on the line to advocate for your students?" Murphy asked, eliciting applause from the audience.
Cotter may have had the most blunt response to the question. "If you don't change what you're doing, you're going to have the same outcomes. I believe we need to change the current dynamic in place," he said. "But to answer your question, yes, I would be willing to put my job on the line. I've been in education for 39 years. I'm kind of independent at this point in time."
Gordon emphasized communication as a way of heading off political disputes.
"The best approach to whoever is coming politically with certain issues is to talk about it before it becomes a festering problem. If you can solve a problem before it becomes a major confrontation, everybody wins," he said.
Toback, the Hoboken superintendent, stressed his support for having a plan and sticking to it.
"Nobody wins if the superintendent walks," he said. "But there are things that can be done well in advance (of problems developing.) Right now, the district is engaged in a strategic planning process," he said, referring to the school board process to establish long-range goals for the district.
The three would-be superintendents were also asked to describe how they would deal with relations with the school board, which have often been contentious.
"The superintendent is the C.E.O.," Gordon said. "If I'm offered the position, this would be my understanding with the board. Board members are volunteers. This said, you can't blind-side them and you can't undermine them."
Gordon cited a recent example in Manchester, when district officials had proposed ending the "no-nit" policy, whereby students are sent home as soon as lice are detected on them. A school board committee unanimously rejected any relaxation of the policy.
"I would go to them ahead of time and talk to them ... rather than embarrass the board," he said.
Cotter said open communication is vital.
"I believe in a very transparent approach that doesn't involve a hidden agenda or manipulation, one that is based on helping the children and helping the district move forward," he said.
Jim O'Connell, president of Citizens for Manchester Schools, the civic group that has been advocating for greater school funding, asked the candidates about the fact that they come from school districts that are significantly smaller than Manchester - and that spend far more per-pupil than the city.
Toback, the Hoboken superintendent, said the comparison wasn't necessarily apt.
"The fact is ... a district with 2,400 students is still a significant operation and we have many of the same challenges you face here," he said.
Toback added, "There are a lot of things that cost a whole lot more in New Jersey - teacher salaries at the top end are almost $100,000. That's a big part of why our cost-per-pupil is much higher."
All three candidates praised Manchester and its economic potential.
Perhaps the biggest applause line came when Gordon noted that he's been a Red Sox fan since he was a kid.
"I wore a Red Sox uniform in Yankee Stadium and almost got my father killed," he said.
Following the meeting, several parents indicated they were pleased with the candidates overall.
"I was skeptical at first," said Nick Want, a member of Citizens for Manchester Schools. But, he said, "I think it's been a good process and the three candidates have their eyes wide open."
Lisa Witte said she "felt good about all the candidates."
Like Want, Witte was leaning toward one of the three men, but declined to identify which one.
The forum capped a busy day for the three candidates, during which they toured the schools and met with business and community leaders.
Today, the Board of School Committee will be interviewing the candidates; it is expected to make its pick at a non-public meeting in the evening. The board is not expected to announce the new superintendent for another couple days, at the earliest.

Both roles will last approximately 3 months, based in and around Nairobi and its outskirts. We hope the roles will begin in early 2014
Organisation summary
Our partner is a Kenyan organisation working with agrodealers in rural areas to improve their business processes and customer management practices. Our partner has facilitated partnerships between these agrodealers and small ICT firms, and some have already begun using technology to their advantage.
Job description
We are currently recruiting two volunteers to support this organisation.
The first role is a general retail consultancy role which will involve working closely with agrodealers, mentoring them in:
- basics of merchandising, inventory, and financial management
- development of customer loyalty programs
- improvement of promotional and marketing campaign and tactics, including how to assess marketing and promotional investments
- how to use management information more effectively for strategic planning and decision making.is so hope to recruit a volunteer who will support the agrodealers to improve their retailing, so please mention if you'd be interested in this opportunity (either as well as or instead of the role above) and we'll contact you with more information once we have it.It has become clear that better engagement between the agrodealers and ICT firms would help ensure that users are exploiting new systems to their full potential. With this in mind, we are currently looking for a retail consultant to help the firms appreciate the value of strong after-sales support.
The second role is more closely tied to aftersales and, if possible, some previous experience in ICT. It will involve working with both the ICT firms and the users to illustrate the importance of (and value in) following up with customers after initial implementation. The successful volunteer will also have the skills and knowledge to help the ICT firms package their products more effectively.
• Previous experience of providing retail consultancy is necessary
• The knowledge, initiative and confidence to work with markets that aren't always ready for ICT would be beneficial for the second assignment
• Excellent communication skills
• Previous experience of training and mentoring others
• Previous experience of working in low-income countries is desirable but not essential
These would be ideal opportunities for experienced professionals to use their skills in a new and exciting environment, as although unpaid we will cover your expenses. We provide return flights, insurance, in-country accommodation, transport and inoculations. You will also receive a daily stipend for meals and subsistence.
Please email your CV and a cover letter outlining the relevant experience you have and your motivations for applying to: email@example.com - we look forward to hearing from you.

pretty good time lapse video. Comment: When an environmental group or one of their followers, make a statement that contains "due to climate change...." be prepared for months of rain, snow, mild temps, freezing temps, etc. Whatever the supposed problem is, by the time it gets to MSM, Mother Nature reverses course.Remember the R.I. Senator who warned us this fall his family wasn´t going to be able to ski in S. New England in the future "due to climate change"? Ha! I´ll bet he´s still has snow in his yard.Mister

The real trip is an experience of a lifetime. Especially if you learn a little geology before you go. The river has cut a cross-section thru the earths crust going back almost 2 billion years. The river isn´t endangered, it´s been there since the colorado plateau was created about 6 million years ago. There´s just a fight over water rights. If you say something is endangered and you are a lefty, then you are special.

My family did that trip in 1978. The things I remember most are playing Frisbee with my brother in a giant cavern, sliding down the rocks in the Little Colorado (the water was baby blue), Lava Falls, and sunburn.

bulked for just over 3 months,
gone from 69kg (152lbs) to 81kg (178) - 12kg gain (26lbs)
my main goal was to put some size on my legs which i have always felt are out of proportion to the rest of my body.
They still are but to be honest at this body fat i feel terrible and can't stand to bulk any more.
Going to start a slow cut now leading up to the Aussie summer, will be interesting to see how much extra muscle remains when i get back down to single digit body fat.
pics taken today.
