Historical Traveller Reviews of Herons' Reach Hotel
Not ADe Vere i would stay in again!from maguirepaul
Utter rubbishfrom solxdi91
Having arrived at the hotel; approx 10.30pm Saturday 23rd September after the wedding reception, to check in our first impressions of the hotel were very positive. The hotel lobby was clean and we could see the other common areas of the hotel looked modern, clean and tidy.
Having checked in we went to our room. This had been booked as a family room however after opening the door it was clearly just a double room with a sofa and table, my daughter agreed to sleep on a two seat couch with a pillow and worn blanket, I was far too tired to complain or request another room.
The room was not what we expected. In summary I would describe our concerns as follows;
1)Room décor was in old and jaded and the carpet worn and dirty
2)The bathroom was not very clean and the tiled surfaces dirty and jaded
3)The bathroom suite was clearly circa 1980 and the basin was chipped.
4)The room had a peculiar unpleasant smell.
5)The furnishings were old, worn and smelly.
6)The blanket in the wardrobe was worn and shabby
7)The room windows only opened 2-3 inches so ventilation was poor.
8)Would expect heating controls to regulate the room temperature adequately they did not !
9)The television picture was poor and the remote faulty or in need of batteries
10)The overall impression of the bedroom accommodation was very poor.
The only positive thing I could say was that the bed was fairly comfortable and the linen was clean and fresh and our breakfast the next day was satisfactory.
However the room was certainly not 4 star accommodation, being well travelled and having stayed in many hotels this accommodation was definitely not up to standard the room costing me £101.28 + vat
It would appear to me that the hotel has obviously been reasonably well looked after with regards to the common areas, bar , restaurant, grounds and health club etc. However if my room was the benchmark the hotels bedrooms had clearly been missed off the agenda with regards to upkeep and general maintenance and appearance. The rooms reflected a 1980's appearance and feel and looked in need of a full refit.
Finally my last major concern was the fact that my mother in law had also booked a double room for the same date as ourselves. Having arrived at the hotel approximately 2 hours after we arrived it transpired that her booking had been cancelled and no other room was available. This had apparently happened because her son, who's wedding we were all attending, had booked the bridal suite, however he had subsequently cancelled this and it would appear that all the bookings under that name had been cancelled in error.
Having been woken to this news my wife was mortified and spent the next two hours finding alternative accommodation for her mother.
I subsequently checked on the internet I found numerous complaints about the standard of accommodation, which leads me to believe that I am not the first to complain and probably not the last.
ve Ever Had.from charliebrown999999
The room was stifling hot with no airconditiong in the £137 a night room. We did however have the benefit of hearing the hotels airconditioning unit outside our room when the window was open.
The cooked breakfast was also cold.
A total disappointment.
helpful stafffrom maisymeg
Loved It!- but not for Golf!from ThomasK
The food here was fantastic! Dinner was a pit posh, no jeans in the evening but the food was to die for. Breakfast was even better, the leisure facilities were good too, although I have been informed by my partner that the golf wasn't particularly great. He wouldn't go again for golf. Squash courts were good if you could book them, as was the pool.
The staff were excellent all the way through, very polite and pleasant. Our room was loveley, with a lovely view over the golf course. Even though we paid for the most basic room. The room was quite small - but we had a huge 2m square bed in it which was excellent, and our bathroom was lovely too!
Had a really nice stay in this hotel, and really really enjoyed it!
Not bad not excellentfrom sc7534sc
what's not so good Room not that big - unable to change the temperature in the room - it was far too hot. Bathroom a bit dated and bath had numerous chips to the base.
facilities good - pool etc very nice.
Breakfast not too bad - bit pricy, cannot comment on evening meal - ran amile when saw prices - went to town and had fish and chips on the golden mile!!
overall not a bad hotel - I would rate it at just over 3 star but not up to 4 star standard although priced at 4 star.
Cannot comment on golf course - just spoils a good walk.
Hotel a good 40 minutes walk from town - only practical way to get to the action is to drive - parking is horrendous in blackpool during holiday season.
Suggest you get a taxi - staff will arrange - just over £5 each way.
A 4* Should At Least Be Cleanfrom plod715
Our check-in procedure was faultless. We were assigned standard twin rooms 207 & 209.
One bed out of the four was filthy with stained coverlet, stained sheets, covered in pubic hairs, and stained valance and bed base. We complained immediately and the bed and linen was replaced within minutes. During this procedure we found that another bed's coverlet was soiled. This was replaced with a new coverlet. On our 3rd day the staff changed the bedlinen again and replaced this second, new, coverlet with yet another soiled one. This lack of hygiene spoiled our holiday experience. Not 4* quality!
Otherwise the sports facilities are faultless. Last year's bitterly cold swimming pool is now a pleasant temperature. My family were very disappointed to discover widespead building work being undertaken. The pool and snooker tables have been removed and offices and treatment studios are being put in their place.
There is a pleasing ambience to the public areas.
Breakfast in the main restaurant can be busy with long queues at popular times. Bar Nineteen provides an reasonably priced snack breakfast.
Excellent, stay here again definitleyfrom A TripAdvisor Member
Me and my partner stayed here at thought it was great. Very friendly staff, leisure facilities excellent(better then cannons health club which i am in back home).
We stayed in a "club" room. It was small, nothing fancy, very much like a travel lodge but did the job. Breakfast in the morning was buffet and there was a huge choice which would cater for all tastes.
Overall I think this was a great place to stay, very welcoming, relaxing and we will be definitly going back next year, cant wait. Better then a lot of the 4 star hotels i have stayed in. Cant comment on the golf couse, too busy enjoying the leisure faciliites.
Hope this help anybody!

Top Local Tips for Blackpool
A good base to explore the attractions. Herons Reach is on the outskirts of Blackpool, in fact, there is little indication when you are staying at this hotel that you are in Blackpool at all! If you want to avoid the town because it is not your scene, travel to the Lakes and Windermere for the day (about an hour or so drive) Or go in the other direction to Lytham St. Annes. There is superb countryside within fairly easy driving distance from the hotel.
Pleasure Beach Go on a Sunday morning - it's empty until about 2pm and all the rides open at 11am. Didn't really have to queue until later.
Out of town centre Blackpool is not to everyone's taste but this hotel is located far enough from the centre to avoid the brash, "kiss me quick" culture. The location is peaceful set back from the main road. Using the back roads in Blackpool is easier than driving to the Promenade to go towards St Annes or Fleetwood. We also read the hotel's literature on festive breaks and these are very reasonable in comparison to what we have read about festive breaks in the area where we live.

So…What's Chlamydia anyways?
Chlamydia is a bacterium that causes an infection of the genitals. It is a very common infection, especially between the ages of 15 to 29. From 2 to 7% of sexually active Youth are infected. It is also commonly called « the Clap ».
Chlamydia can cause an infection of the cervix in women, and in men and women, of the urethra (where you pee), of the anus and more rarely of the throat.
How is it detected, treated and prevented?
In about 50% of cases, the infection doesn't cause any symptoms. That's why you always have to be on your toes! Even if there are no evident symptoms, the infection is still transmissible.
When there are symptoms, they usually appear from a few days to three weeks after being infected.
Signs to watch out for…
For Women :
A visit to the STD clinic or to the doctor's office, where an examination and some tests will be done, is the only way to diagnose Chlamydia. A variety of tests can detect Chlamydia: a urine sample, if available in your area, or samples from the cervix in women and from the tip of the penis (urethra) in men. These samples are taken with a swab (looks like a long Q-tip). If a rectal or throat infection is suspected, samples will also be taken in those areas.
If it happens to me, what do I do?
Chlamydia is treated with antibiotics taken by the mouth. In many provinces, they are free.
It's very important to inform your partner or partners because even if you have been treated, you can catch it again from your partner. Partners should be treated at the same time even if they show no symptoms they might be infected, and so re-infect you.
Condom use is excellent to prevent Chlamydia!
What are the possible complications?
If Chlamydia is not treated, it can cause severe problems. For example, in women, an infection of the uterus or of the ducts linking the uterus to the ovaries (fallopian tubes), can lead to a infertility (not being able to have children).
In men, the infection can spread to the testicles and the tubes that transport sperm out of them (epidydimitis).
In both men and women, the infection can cause inflammation in the joints and the eyes.

A partnership between NASA and the U.S. Department of Education to introduce students to more challenging science, technology, engineering and math work is reaching into Florida.
South Seminole Middle School has been chosen by the state to participate in the pilot program, which will have students participating in NASA-designed challenges.
Starting last year, NASA has created content for 21st Century Community Learning Centers, which are federally-designated sites that provide academic enrichment opportunities during non-school hours or expand learning time in under-resourced communities. About 61 percent of the students at South Seminole Middle in Casselberry come from low-income homes.
Last year, NASA provided online challenges and associated curriculum materials to 21 sites in Colorado, Michigan and Virginia.
This year, Florida is one of five states to participate in the middle school program.

The U.S. Department of Education has reversed course and given Florida approval to continue counting students learning English in its A-to-F school grading system as it has for years.
The federal department this summer turned down Florida's plan, prompting Gov. Rick Scott to say "bureaucrats in Washington" were micromanaging Florida's schools. In September, Scott threatened legal action if U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan did not "reverse course."
The federal department said today it had changed its mind, granting Florida the approval it wanted. The decision was announced in a letter sent today to Education Commissioner Pam Stewart. The letter said Florida, in return, must analyze and submit data on students learning English to the U.S. DOE.
The department granted Florida's request because it "explained in detail" what it would do to help newly arrived students and that it would collect data on those youngsters and use it provide instruction and services for them, said Dorie...Read more
Education Commissioner Pam Stewart announced today she's seeking nominations for members of a new committee that will review a series of hot-button education issues, including the implementation of Florida's new academic standards and debut of new tests early next year.
The new "Keep Florida Learning Committee" also will look at "further deregulation opportunities for the school system" the "instructional material review processes used by school boards" and more ways to "increase parental involvement," the Florida Department of Education said.
Florida residents interested in serving on the new committee can apply here. You must complete your online application by Jan. 31. Committee members will be announced in February and will meet for the first time in March.
Stewart will serve on the new panel and wants 10 other members, including "legislators, teachers, superintendents, school board members, higher education representatives, and members of the public," the department said.
A mock courtroom where police recruits can learn how to testify and act in front of a judge.
A simulator where law enforcement officials can practice what to do if there is an active shooter.
An outdoor lab where trainees can perfect search and rescues or firefighting tactics.
These trainings will all be part of the new School of Public School that Valencia College officials approved this week. The new school is replacing what was previously known as the Criminal Justice Institute, which was located in 77,000-square-foot site at 8600 Valencia College Lane.
"At Valencia, we believe that a world-class city needs to have world-class public safety. With that as our goal, the new School of Public Safety will train the next generation of police, firefighters, homeland security and private security workers in the latest techniques and equip them for not just traditional criminal activity, but how to respond to 21st-century threats," said Jeff Goltz, executive dean of the new School of Public...Read more

Singapore, Singapore
this is more damaging to cricket than match-fixing
Pakistan, Sri Lanka and South Africa were the three opponents when the reforms were debated at an ICC Board meeting last month. Pakistan and Sri Lanka will now discuss the proposals with their respective Boards. "Our stance was based on principle but other countries went after money. I am afraid the big share of money will go to the 'Big Three'. The 'Big Three' will get money from the share of the other seven," Ashraf said.
Former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif said he fears "severe consequences" from the revamp to cricket worldwide. "I think this is more damaging to cricket than match-fixing," Latif told AFP. "Giving powers to three 'dons' mean they will take every decision on their whims... handing power to three means the ICC ceased to exist."
Among the reforms, the "Big Three" were given permanent seats on a new, five-man executive committee, while India's N. Srinivasan was made chairman of the decision-making ICC Board.

Writing Gay Characters. Pregnant Lesbians.
For some reason, people who write lesbians think they're being incredibly original by having a story about a lesbian couple trying to get pregnant. This has been done exactly 2,405,305 times before.

Paul Pierce trade rumors: Danny Ainge offered Pierce to Portland Trail Blazers
When reporters spoke to the Boston Celtics before yesterday's game against the Golden St. Warriors, Paul Pierce joked with them about still being in Boston as the trade deadline approached. Reporters thought he was kidding, and he probably was, but the comments might have had serious undertones.
According to ESPN's Chris Broussard (Insider), the Celtics offered Paul Pierce to the Portland Trail Blazers.
While Boston Celtics boss Danny Ainge has said Rajon Rondo will not be traded, he is still actively seeking offers for members of the Big Three. The Celtics offered Paul Pierce to Portland — I'm not sure what they asked for in return — but the Blazers were not interested because of the two years and $32 million remaining on Pierce's contract.
The Blazers are positioning themselves to have tons of cap room this summer and they don't want to do anything to eliminate their space as they try to rebuild around LaMarcus Aldridge and Nicolas Batum. The Blazers continue to shop the rest of their roster, particularly Gerald Wallace, Raymond Felton, Marcus Camby and Jamal Crawford.
Be prepared for a wild ride until 3:00 p.m.

Broussard must be smoking some of that good Portland skunk weed, as this rumor is so illogical. If Portland won't trade Batum then they have nothing worth PP including all the other players mentioned together. Can't wait for this b.s. to all end today. Go Cs…

To get rid of Pierce is just flat out stupid. His game is still tight and he is the heart and soul of the Celtics. Big 3 are still putting up numbers so why trade? There's always time for the future, after the Boston Big 4 era.

I had been using this little dynamic loaded content jQuery JavaScript in my website comic section for a while now. Have a look at this sample page, to see it in action. There are a lot of better written script out there, but I hope my version will be useful to you as well.
You will need to do some editing on the page you will be using this, but the script is quite simple and self explanatory. There are only few simple steps you need to do.
1) Download
Ofcourse, you will need to download the sample zip files first.
jqcontent.zip 3.1KB
2) Include the JavaScript and CSS
Include jQuery library(jquery.min.js), JavaScript (jqcontent.js) and CSS (jqcontent.css) for this banner in your page header, which are

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="jqcontent.css" />
3) Include the div where dynamic content will be load
To tell the script where to load the dynamic content, include the following HTML in your page.

Click an option below

jqc_content are the div where dynamic content will be load and jqc_loading is the div to show loading status. Customize the jqc_loading div to suit your need.
3) Include link or list button to call load content function.
Using ul list:

Load content 1

Load content 2

Load content 3

Using normal ahref hyperlink:

Load content 1

Load content 2

Load content 3

In the script that I had written. It will grab the id value from UL list or AHREF link to construct the content URL. The id value is also the hashtag value.
Inside jqcontent.js, line 26
$("#jqc_content").empty().load("content/"+p_ID+".html", jqc_fnDone);
In this case, the id value is actually the file name for a HTML in the "content" subfolder. You will need to modify both the JavaScript and HTML according to your file name and location.
If it is abit confusing due to my bad engrish explantion. Here are some examples.
To load day1.html from diary subfolder. You will need to modify it like this.
Using ul list:

View Day 1

Using normal ahref hyperlink:

View Day 1

Inside jqcontent.js, line 26
$("#jqc_content").empty().load("diary/"+p_ID+".html", jqc_fnDone);
You can use the id value as the folder name as well.
Inside jqcontent.js, line 26
$("#jqc_content").empty().load(p_ID+"/index.html", jqc_fnDone);
Well, that's all. Just download the sample files in the zip and play around with it. Like this article/tutorial? Follow me on my Facebook page to get more updates.
You need to running PHP server (Apache, EasyPHP).
Very great script!
Hi, great pludin, but when i download it don't work, why?

We've reported before about how artists' diseases may have influenced their art. Now researchers think that Monet?s blurred vision, caused by cataracts, may have influenced his famous paintings of water lilies.
In the Independent, Jonathan Brown reports that US ophthalmologist Michael Marmor says that Monet's cataracts would have made the world seem blurry and yellow-tinted?two characteristics of his later "water lily" series of paintings.
Monet finally had cataract surgery in 1923, at the age of 86. But Brown quotes art historian Chris Riopelle as saying, "[Monet's eye condition] does not entirely answer the questions?after surgery, Monet's style did not alter radically."
Our readers and listeners see the world in a very different way from everyone else?and they're thankful that we do too! Make sure we'll still be here tomorrow: subscribe today!

Education Department Names
Descriptive Overview
When the Iowa State Normal School was founded in 1876, teacher education was the sole purpose of the institution. This single purpose persisted through the name change in 1909 to the Iowa State Teachers College and on down to 1961, when the school became the State College of Iowa. At that time the school began to offer degrees that led to careers outside the field of education. Until 1961, one could argue that all courses offered at the school were education-related courses, since all courses were oriented toward the preparation of teachers.
However, even in the school's first catalogue in 1876, departments offering "content" courses (Art, English Literature, History, Mathematics, and Science) were differentiated from departments offering instruction in teaching techniques, the Didactics and Practice Department and the Professional Science Department. This latter department was replaced by the Professional Studies Department in 1877, which persisted until 1882, when it was replaced by the Pedagogics Department. The Didactics and Practice Department, an early home for the Model School, disappeared in 1878.
The Pedagogics Department was replaced by the Didactics Department in 1883. The Didactics Department persisted until 1892, when it became the Professional Department. The Professional Department lasted until 1907, though from 1903 through 1907 there was also a Kindergarten Department. In 1907 these departments combined to form the Professional and Training Department. In 1909 this department split into the Department of Professional Instruction in Education and the Department of Training in Teaching, essentially a home for what now is known as the Price Laboratory School. In 1913, the Professional Instruction in Education Department became simply the Education Department. And in 1914, the Training in Teaching Department became simply the Teaching Department. Also in 1914, in response to the need to prepare teachers for work in country schools, the Rural Education Department was established. The Rural Education Department existed until 1932, when its program was folded back into the Education Department. The Teaching Department exists to this day.
The Education Department name was quite stable, existing until 1957 when it became the Education and Psychology Department. This name persisted until 1968, a year after the school received university status. At that point the Psychology Department was established as an independent unit, and the university began to organize itself into colleges.
The Education Department, left behind after the departure of Psychology, lasted from 1968 through 1970, when it broke into three departments of the College of Education: Curriculum and Instruction, Educational Psychology and Foundations, and School Administration and Personnel Services. The College of Education also included the existing departments of Library Science, Physical Education for Men, and Physical Education for Women. The histories of Library Science and the Physical Education Departments are treated elsewhere.
The Curriculum and Instruction Department and the Educational Psychology and Foundations Department exist to this day. The Special Education Department was established in 1979 and still exists. The School Administration and Personnel Services Department became the Educational Administration and Counseling Department in 1983. In 2000, this unit became the Educational Leadership, Counseling, and Post-Secondary Education Department.

Bea's parents George and Zillah, evidently shared a taste in homes that favored the elegance of simplicity. It was the unimposing yet dignified structure on Pine Street–where the back door was always open. George and Henry Gurler were both prominent businessmen, and joint owners of a number of dairies. They quickly became world-famous and respected by many dairy farmers. Bea eventually made it a goal of hers to renovate The Gurler House to be the home that she once new and loved. The Gurler House hosts an annual Folk Music Festival every summer, where people are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets to enjoy the music. While you are at The Gurler House, make sure to take a walk through their beautiful garden.

The measurement of the power injected by the electron cyclotron heating (ECH) system in the DIII-D tokamak is a critical requirement for analysis of experiments, for tuning the gyrotrons for maximum power and efficiency, for tracking long-term operational trends, and for providing a warning of problems with the system. The ECH system at General Atomics consists of six 110-GHz, 1-MW-class gyrotrons. The radio-frequency (rf) power generated by each gyrotron is determined from calorimetry, using the relevant temperature and flow measurements from the cooling circuits of the cavity, matching optics unit, and dummy loads (DLs). The rf pulse length and time dependence are measured using an rf monitor at the first miter bend in the transmission line. The cavity power loading measured directly gives the generated rf power using a previously determined relationship between cavity loading and rf production. The direct measurement of the efficiencies of four of the transmission lines was performed using a high-power DL placed alternately in two positions of each DIII-D waveguide line, at accessible points close to the beginning and the end of each line. Total losses in the transmission lines range from 21.2 to 30.7%. Experimental results are compared to theoretical predictions of the performance of the components and waveguide lines.

 2012-08-20T18:36:00Z All Hands on Deck http://www.foodquality.com/details/article/1395229/All_Hands_on_Deck.html
An observational study conducted by the CDC that 8.6 hand washes by restaurant staff per employee hour were required to comply with the FDA's Model Food Code.1 Consensus among both operators and regulators is that that is never going to happen. However, the study's results beg the question: If 8.6 is the ideal safe level, what is the risk when hand washing frequency is, on average, 0.5 times per employee hour? Based on foodborne illness data and the increasing frequency of shuttered restaurants, the risk is higher than desired. We all know that hand washing rates are well below perfection. In most food service operations, they are also well below a safe level.

Thoughts raised by watching Andy Cohen toss questions at two criminals from The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
For fraud.
We sent Julie Klausner to the Bravo upfronts to find out!
Get icons for all 25 movies, TV shows, bands, and people from our Most Devoted Fans list for your desktop pattern or Facebook and Twitter profile.
The final reunion episode is a cornucopia of dicks, disses and delights.
Entré Rosie and Juicy Joe.
In which Teresa Gorga is burned in effigy.
Plus the most TMI-laden thing that Richie's ever said about Kathy.
The mystery of "what life's all about" according to Teresa Guidice is answered.
Caroline's patience for Tre and (our patience for this show) wanes drastically.
Teresa attempts to sublimate her adultery fears with a little vineyard P-in va-G.
Hey! We got a mood ring and a Wiffeball bat for you.
Albert and Caroline play "hide the sausage" by actually hiding sausage.
In which the colloquialism "it ain't over until the fat lady sings" causes Lauren to sing.
"I make hot sauces, I sing sometimes, and I put on high pumps."
Smells like 'roids, Drakkar Noir, and desperation.
One therapist's dark night of the soul.
In which Juicy Joe's stint in therapy at age 11 is revealed.
Is it just us, or is the whole Tre-tabloid-as-fight-catalyst thing getting old?
Featuring K-Y Touch and a box of Monarch butterflies.
The upcoming gay nuptials seem to be serving up a hot plate of tolerance to everyone in Franklin Lakes.
On this episode, titled "Spoiled Sports," everyone's a ... yeah, you get it.
In the aftermath of Melissa and Teresa's throwdown, everyone is forced to take sides.
If we were using Friends titles, this would be "The One Where They Wear Bindis and Screech at Each Other."
What could possibly be in that yellow diet liquid?

LOS ANGELES (AP) The Southern California woman cited for wearing Internet-connected eyeglasses while driving says she expects to contest the citation.
Cecilia Abadie was pulled over for speeding Tuesday evening in San Diego, when a California Highway Patrol officer noticed she was wearing Google Glass and tacked on a citation usually given to drivers who may be distracted by a video or TV screen.
Abadie tells The Associated Press that she was not using her Google Glass when she was pulled over.
She says she is surprised that wearing the glasses would be illegal and that she's "pretty sure" she will fight the ticket.
Legislators in several states have introduced bills that would specifically ban driving with the glasses, which are still not widely available to the public.

What are the differences between "False" & "Fake"?
Can someone give me an example?
Can someone give me an example?
Feb 2, 2012 01:33
False is something that is untrue. Fake is something that's a forgery and not real.
The idea that the earth is round is false.
That answer is false.
Teddy bears are fake bears.
Someone bought a Louis Vuitton for a cheap price in the Philippines and later found out that it was fake. (It was a replica)
Sometimes they are used interchangeably: false teeth, fake teeth.
In some cases they can't.
False is use when something is factually wrong, fake is used when something is made up.

WASHINGTON - Annual homicide numbers from the D.C. metro area bring both encouraging and discouraging signs.
According to the Metropolitan Police Department, there were 103 killings in the District in 2013. That is a jump when compared to 2012, which saw a half-century low of 88.
Without the Washington Navy Yard shootings, which left 12 victims dead, D.C.'s total would have shown a slight uptick at 91.
Regardless, the numbers are down considerably from the 248 a decade ago and the 454 in 1993.
In Prince George's County, Md., officials are pleased by a drop in crime, according to The Washington Post. The county's homicide figure was 57 at the end of the year, down from 64 in 2012 and the lowest it's been since the 1980s.
Fairfax County, Va. and Montgomery County, Md. each reported nine killings, a slight drop in both jurisdictions, the Post reports.
There were no homicides in 2013 in Arlington County, Va. Alexandria, Va. recorded five this past year after having none in 2012.
It was a tough year for Baltimore. The city saw more than 230 killings, the most in four years.

Coburn, Manchin Amendment Pressuring Pentagon to Produce Audit Passes Senate Unanimously
(WASHINGTON, D.C.) – U.S. Senator Tom Coburn, M.D. (R-OK) and Joe Manchin (D-WV) released the following statement today after the Senate this week approved provisions of their "Audit the Pentagon Act" (S. 3487) within the Defense Authorization Bill (S. 3254). The Senate agreed to the amendment, #3237, which pressures the Department of Defense to produce financial audits and provides consequences in the event of noncompliance.
"Forcing the Pentagon to pass an audit is the law and will both strengthen our national defense and our economy. Achieving a clean financial audit will free up existing resources for national security. I'm pleased our colleagues agree and included key auditing provisions with the defense authorization act," Dr. Coburn said, noting that the United States Marine Corps recently reported that "for each $1 spent on financial improvement, an estimated $2.77 in value was created for the warfighter."
"One of my top priorities is to make sure we remain the most powerful and efficient military force in the world – and we must do that by cutting fat, not muscle, from the Pentagon," Senator Manchin said. "An audit is a critical step in making sure that decisionmakers have accurate information about our spending and our priorities, and I am committed to working with Senator Coburn and all our colleagues on both sides of the aisle to make sure the Defense Department passes an audit."
Under the Coburn-Manchin amendment, if the Department of Defense fails to obtain a clean audit opinion in 2017 it will result in the creation of a separate Chief Management Officer (CMO) of the Department of Defense. The new CMO who will be charged with fixing the Pentagon's financial management, business transformation, and information technology problems – including failing to get a clean audit opinion – which have put it on the Government Accountability Office's High Risk list for potential waste of taxpayer funds.
Finally, this legislation mandates that if the Department of Defense fails to obtain a clean audit opinion in 2017 the Defense Finance and Accounting Service, the agency that cuts the checks for the Pentagon, will be moved from the Department of Defense to the Department of the Treasury. The Department of the Treasury already disburses funding on behalf of all other federal agencies who all receive audit opinions.

When Blizzard announced a MMORPG based on the Warcraft universe the expectation was maximum: the millions of people who had enjoyed the Warcraft RTS series were anxious to create an avatar of their favorite race and enter the fantastic World of Warcraft in first person!
Eventually the expectations were met, and still to this day World of Warcraft is the most successful MMORPG of all time but, ... absolutely all expectations were met? Not all ...
There are people who still are waiting to create an avatar of their favorite race ... as there are historic races seen in the RTS games that still are not playable in WoW ... and those are the races that have higher priority to become playable ...
I refer of course to:
- Ogres for the Horde
- High Elves for the Alliance
Now is your chance Blizzard, not waste it ...
Ogres or Tol'vir for me.
Ogres because they remind me of what Warcraft used to be.
Ogres for the Horde vs. Vrykul for the Alliance. Then Nagas, as a neutral race.
thanks go out to Elyssia Love and admire your Princess of the Night! HUZZAH!

The great white got its scientific name, Carcharodon carcharias, from the Greek words karcharos, meaning sharp, and odous, meaning tooth. The earliest known fossils are about 16 million years old. However, their evolutionary history is still in dispute between different sharks, including the mako shark and the prehistoric megalodon.
Great whites have an estimated lifespan of roughly 70 years. There are reports of a great white caught in Cuba in 1945 measuring 21 feet long and weighing more than 7,300 pounds! There have been claims of larger great whites, but many of these findings draw criticism for being unreliably measured. Like all other sharks, the great white has electroreceptors called Ampullae of Lorenzini, enabling them to detect electromagnetic changes caused by the movement of a living creature, or even a heartbeat if close enough!
The reverse of these 1/2 oz .999 fine Silver coins shows a ferocious great white shark, with the outlines of two other sharks in the background. The Ian Rank-Broadley likeness of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the monetary denomination of 50 cents (AUD) are shown on the obverse.

SD 135 board chief quits; speedy process to fill vacancy questioned

With Orland School District 135 Board President John Carmody serving notice he's resigned from the board, three school board members who lost in this month's election have called a special meeting to select his replacement.
That prompted one member of the board on Friday to call into question the process for filling the vacancy, saying the full board should have an opportunity to interview candidates for the position.
Carmody, who has been on the board since 2007 and whose current term would have expired in 2015, submitted his resignation Thursday, effective that day, essentially saying he can't remain on the board because he no longer lives in the district.
The district Friday sent notice of a special meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, called by three current board members who lost in this month's election — Tom Cunningham, Ann Gentile and Tina Zekich. The agenda calls for selecting a replacement to fill the vacancy and also to appoint a special board counsel.
The district has also scheduled a special meeting for May 6 to swear in new school board members Laura Berry, Michael Carroll, Sandra Kulak and Michael Maratea. Also at that meeting, the board will vote to elect officers, including president.
In a letter Friday that he said was sent to other board members, board member Joe La Margo said that bypassing a more thorough interview process to pick a new board member is "bad decision-making and process" as well as "unethical."
"Appointing someone to fill a vacant board seat with no interview process, no community input and no opportunity to invite interested candidates to come forward is careless, appears to be based purely on the political concerns of the outgoing board members and ignores the interests of the voters of the school district," La Margo, who is Orland Park's deputy village clerk, said in the letter.
Carmody, 45, indicated last year that he planned to challenge Orland Park Mayor Dan McLaughlin in this month's municipal election, but never filed paperwork to seek the mayor's job.
