Bulldog Stadium to Close for Winter
SMF City School District saves money by closing facility for cold months
STOW, OHIO - December 1, 2014 - In order to save money and staff resources, the entire Bulldog stadium at Stow-Munroe Falls High School will be shut down for the winter. The stadium officially closed December 1 and will remain closed until at least March 1.
"It really came down to two factors: safety and money," said Mark Fritz, Director of Operations for the SMF City School District. "We're always looking for ways to use district money wisely. Shutting the facility down allows us to save a little bit of money by turning the temps in all of the buildings very low for those cold months."
Fritz went on to say that it also allows the district to reallocate labor Instead of having his maintenance crew tending to snow removal at the stadium, he can move them to other, high-use areas on the high school campus.
The facility will reopen on March 1, weather permitting. For more information, Fritz can be reached at 330-689-5413.

New Report Defines a High Quality Education
STOW, OHIO—September 15, 2014— Today, the Stow-Munroe Falls City School District joined 60 other school districts throughout Ohio in releasing a comprehensive, community-oriented companion to the ODE's District Report Card. Called a "Quality Profile," the report includes additional accountability measures that better define a high quality education and are not included in the state's report.
The Quality Profile examines the elements of a high-quality public education, as defined by surveys of the general public. The report's content is divided into six categories: academics, arts, student leadership and activities, fiscal stewardship, parent and community involvement, and student services.
"We like the Quality Profile because it gives a broader context for all that we offer our students," said Dr. Russ Jones, SMF Schools Superintendent. "The ODE Report Card certainly has its place in offering standardized benchmarks for district performance, but we want our residents to get a better glimpse of the things that make SMF Schools an excellent place for an education. This report gives us a platform to do just that."
The result is an expanded report that describes, in detail, the programs and opportunities available to students of the SMF school system.
Now, in its second year of development and being released statewide for the first time, the Quality Profile is supported by the Alliance for High Quality Education, an education consortium that works to improve educational opportunities for students.

Superintendent Jones Announces his Retirement
STOW, OHIO—September 8, 2014— Russell D. Jones, Ed.D. announced his retirement from his post as the Stow-Munroe Falls City School District's Superintendent at Monday night's regular Board of Education meeting. After serving for nine years as superintendent for the district, Dr. Jones will retire so that he can pursue other interests, effective January 30, 2015.
"Russ has never wavered in his passion and dedication to the students, employees and teachers in this district," said School Board President Fred Bonacci. "He came to work each day full of energy, ready to take on whatever each day would bring. He was such a pleasure to work with over the last two-and-a-half years."
Superintendent Jones was appointed to the role in February 2006 and has served the district through a number of transitions, including facility improvements, contract negotiations, and a levy passage. Most importantly, Dr. Jones' leadership was rooted in his strong desire to see that all SMF students had the best opportunity for academic success. During his tenure with SMF Schools, Superintendent Jones successfully implemented a number of initiatives that have raised the level of academic rigor in the district, including:
"What a privilege it has been to lead in the SMF City School District," Dr. Jones reflected. "I'm proud of our graduates and the impact they are having on the world around them as they pursue their chosen career paths. Of course, leaving will be bittersweet but I have the utmost confidence in the Board, as well as the talented teachers and committed principals who guide the district. Our students are in good hands."
The Board plans to begin the search process for Dr. Jones' replacement immediately. Conversations have begun with the Ohio School Board Association (OSBA) to ensure the use of best practices in the superintendent search process. Bonacci said that the search would include qualified internal candidates, as well as external candidates. He anticipates hiring by the end of 2014 so that the new superintendent can overlap with Dr. Jones for one month, ensuring a smooth transition.
"It has been my honor to work with Dr. Jones," Bonacci concluded before turning his attention to thoughts of the upcoming search. "He will always have a place in my heart. I wish him the best in his retirement and I hope he finds joy in the next phase of his life."

PASSHE, APSCUF Resume Negotiations Tomorrow
Harrisburg – Negotiations between the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE) and the Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculties (APSCUF) resume tomorrow. PASSHE Vice Chancellor for Human Resources and Labor Relations Gary Dent provided the following statement as the two sides prepare to meet:
"As we get set to return to the bargaining table tomorrow, we do so with a sense of cautious optimism that we are within reach of an agreement with APSCUF that is fair, that is affordable and that positions the System to continue to provide a quality education for years to come.
"PASSHE's number one focus is protecting the interests of our students and their families who provide nearly three-fourths of the revenue needed to operate our universities. There is a limit to the amount of costs we can ask our students to absorb, especially in areas that are not directly related to the classroom.
"We have completed the compensation package portion of the agreement, which historically has been the last item in negotiations. There are, however, a small but significant number of issues yet to be resolved, including active and retiree healthcare, distance education and a new, optional plan for annuitant health care.
"As we have maintained throughout this more than two year process, increases in healthcare costs for both active and retired employees, combined with rapidly rising pension costs, are placing unsustainable financial pressure on the universities. In this regard, PASSHE is no different from the federal or state governments, or most other organizations, all of which have identified increasing costs in these areas as urgent problems that must be addressed.
"As we resume our negotiations tomorrow, we remain optimistic that we will resolve these issues quickly and fairly so that we can get back to working together on what matters most – continuously enhancing the quality of education our students receive."
The Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education is the largest provider of higher education in the Commonwealth, with about 115,000 students. The 14 PASSHE universities offer degree and certificate programs in more than 120 areas of study. Nearly 500,000 PASSHE alumni live and work in Pennsylvania.
The state-owned universities are Bloomsburg, California, Cheyney, Clarion, East Stroudsburg, Edinboro, Indiana, Kutztown, Lock Haven, Mansfield, Millersville, Shippensburg, Slippery Rock and West Chester Universities of Pennsylvania. PASSHE also operates branch campuses in Clearfield, Freeport, Oil City and Punxsutawney and several regional centers, including the Dixon University Center.

I received an e-mail the other day about a Konfabulator project that I hadn't even thought about since 2007: over five years ago! The widget in question was one developed for a "4k contest," one in which coders try to make something interesting with a minimal amount of code. One of my submissions was a pseudo-3D rubik's cube widget.
The person who contacted me had the submitted version of my code and was trying to use it as a basis for another project of his. Unfortunately, the submitted version was not designed to be human-readable, and was a bit annoying to work with.
Now, a lot has changed for me in five years. Back then, I was in a different career – freelance web development. Now I'm a computer science teacher. Back then, I used SVN to store and track changes for my work. Now, I use GitHub. Continue reading

Creationists Demand Equal Airtime With 'Cosmos'
timothy posted about 9 months ago | from the 13-or-so-billion-years-then? dept.667
Hugh Pickens DOT Com (2995471) writes "Travis Gettys reports that creationist Danny Falkner appeared Thursday on "The Janet Mefford Show" to complain that the Fox television series and its host, Neil deGrasse Tyson, had marginalized those with dissenting views on accepted scientific truths. "I don't recall seeing any interviews with people – that may yet come – but it's based upon the narration from the host and then various types of little video clips of various things, cartoons and things like that," said Falkner of Answers In Genesis who also complained that Tyson showed life arose from simple organic compounds without mentioning that some believe that's not possible. "I was struck in the first episode where he talked about science and how, you know, all ideas are discussed, you know, everything is up for discussion – it's all on the table – and I thought to myself, 'No, consideration of special creation is definitely not open for discussion, it would seem." To be fair, there aren't a ton of shows on TV specifically about creationism says William Hamby. "However, there are entire networks devoted to Christianity, and legions of preachers with all the airtime they need to denounce evolution. Oh, and there was that major movie from a few years back. And there's a giant tax-payer subsidized theme park in Kentucky. And the movie about Noah. And entire catalogs of creationist movies and textbooks you can own for the low low price of $13.92.""

How God Came Down: God's Refusal to Answer Our Prayers for Vengeance
Isaiah 64, Philippians 2:5-11, Steve Hollaway, Harbor Church, December 8, 2013, Advent 2
One of the Old Testament texts that is read commonly during the Advent season is the prayer of Isaiah with which we began the service: "O that you would tear open the heavens and come down!" That catches something of the spirit of Advent—a longing, even a desperation for God to come down and show himself to us. Isaiah imagines that God is "up there," above the firmament in the heavenly realm, but he seems to imagine a situation in which God is ignoring him. If you read the end of Isaiah 64, you see that the prophet is standing the midst of a Jerusalem which has become a desolation; the temple has been burned by fire. He asks Yahweh, "After all this, will you restrain yourself?" (64:12). John Wesley paraphrased this with the question "Do none of these things move thee to take vengeance?"
Most of us have felt that way: that God was far away and unresponsive. We wish God would rip open the sky and fly down here like Superman to rescue us. So we beg him, "Please get down here and get to work!" We are a bit like those prophets of Baal that danced around the woodpile on Mount Carmel begging their god to come down in fire, even cutting themselves to get his attention, prompting Elijah to taunt them: "What, you think he might be asleep? Maybe he had to go to relieve himself."
Now even the true prophet Isaiah and his community are praying for God to come down. Verse 3 reminds him—and us—that God did come down in the old days. Like all Israelites, Isaiah thought of the Exodus when God did awesome deeds in bringing the people out of Egypt and slavery. He remembers Yahweh coming down onto Mount Sinai to meet Moses, while the people kept their distance and the mountains quaked and burned with fire. This is a prayer something like "Do it again, Daddy!"
But when God comes down, what will it be like? He will come down in terrifying fire, this prayer imagines. Yahweh will make his name and his power known to his enemies and all the nations will tremble at his presence. If you are standing at Ground Zero—as Isaiah was—it's understandable that you would want God to come down in power and do something to your enemies who have destroyed the temple. But it is not all that unusual for people to pray that God would come down specifically for the purpose of zapping his enemies—which just happen to be our enemies as well.
Some scholars say that Isaiah 64 reflects the idea of God as a warrior. In Isaiah 42:13 (CEB) you find that theme: "The Lord will go out like a soldier, like a warrior God will stir up rage. God will shout, will roar; over enemies he will prevail." Do you remember the Song of Moses after the Exodus? "The Lord is a warrior; Yahweh is his mane. Pharaoh's chariots and his army he cast into the sea…Your right hand, O Lord, shattered the enemy. In the greatness of your majesty you overthrew your adversaries; you sent out your fury, it consumed them like stubble" (Exodus 15: 3-4, 6-7 NRSV). The song of Deborah in Judges has the same martial tone: "Lord…when you marched from the region of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens poured…the mountains quaked before Yahweh, the one of Sinai" (Judges 5:4-5 NRSV).
So we can imagine centuries later, when Israel has stopped winning, when the miracles seem to have dried up, when the temple where the holy Yahweh lived has been reduced to rubble, the question comes up: Where are you, God? When are you going to do what you did in the old days? They liked to think that God was going to wake up from his slumber and bring vengeance upon their enemies. Although, I have to say, even in Isaiah's community there is another stream of thought you see in Isaiah 53 and the songs of the suffering Servant. Maybe God's not going to act in power in the way that we hope for; maybe this time God is going to do something redemptive with our suffering and his own.
Still, there are plenty of prayers in the Old Testament that assume that when God comes down as we pray, he will be a consuming fire and burn up our enemies. Psalm 97:3 says "Fire proceeds before him, burning up his enemies on every side." Some of the prayers in the Psalms are pretty shocking to us: "Stand up, Lord! Save me, my God! In fact, hit all my enemies on the jaw; shatter the teeth of the wicked!" (3:7 CEB). Or: "Let death devastate my enemies; let them go to the grave alive" (55:15 CEB). Or: "Let God rise up; let his enemies scatter…like wax melting before fire, let the wicked perish before God" (68:1-2 CEB). The psalmists start out by praying destruction for Yahweh's enemies, but pretty soon you realize that these are prayers against my enemies. Psalm 143:12 is a scary example of what our prayers can become: "Wipe out my enemies because of your faithful love. Destroy everyone who attacks me, because I am your servant."
There was a long history of praying for God to come down, but it was often a prayer for vengeance, that God will kick the people who kicked me, asking God to be the even bigger bully who beats up the guy who bullied me. Don't think that this is something peculiar to Jews. Yesterday was Pearl Harbor Day. On December 8 (72 years ago today), don't you think there were a few prayers going up for vengeance? If you look at some of the news reels and war bond advertisements from that period now, you see to what extent we demonized our enemies. I have no doubt that good Christians prayed for God to destroy them. My own grandfather was furious when my father decided to go to Japan as a missionary; he was a devout Methodist Sunday School teacher, but he thought we should let those Japanese go to hell like they deserve. And if you think back to September 11, 2001, I know there were some mature prayers for comfort and peace and justice, but I bet there were a good many people asking God to do to Al Qaeda what they had done to us.
So we can understand, I think, why people who have been attacked—and even more so, people who have been defeated—would look to God to avenge what had been done to them. They imagine that if God came down he would come down and set things right by force. Of course, that is what many Jews assumed in the time before Jesus was born. When they looked for a Messiah, they looked for God to come as a Warrior King with supernatural power to overthrow the pagan foreigners who had taken over their land.
But what Christians remember at this season is that when God did in fact come down—after a period when he seemed aloof or dormant in Israel's history—he did not come down the way Isaiah wanted and expected him to come down. God did not come down to destroy his enemies, or ours. When God came down, it was altogether different. That early church hymn which was already in circulation by the time Paul wrote the letter to the Philippians, around 61 AD, tells a very different story about God coming down. We read it together earlier. "He did not consider equality with God something to hold onto, or something to be used for his advantage, but he emptied himself of his power and status and took the form of a servant—even a slave. Finding himself in human form, he humbled himself further still and became obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."
That is the real story of how God came down. The gospels spell out the details: he lived with the powerless and the outcast, he had no weapon against his enemies but his words, he taught us to love our enemies, to bless those who curse us, to turn the other cheek to those who slap us and disrespect us, to walk the second mile to the oppressor who forces you to carry his pack for one mile. When God came down, God chose to come in weakness and to model for us what it means to love those who hate us, which is what God does at every moment.
God did not answer the prayer of Israel that God would destroy their enemies. I don't think he deferred it, either, to another time in history. I think that in Jesus God said a loud NO. No, I am not coming as fire to destroy. No, I am not coming to lift up one nation at the expense of others. No, I will not hate sinners even though you think that is what defines me. I will show you what I am like: a friend of sinners, a friend of soldiers who teaches nonviolence, a friend of the rich who teaches giving up your wealth, a friend of Pharisees who tells them to stop looking in the Bible for life but to look at him to see what God is like.
I do not believe that God ever answers a prayer for vengeance, even though he is the one who will someday bring justice to this world. How could we possibly love our enemies and pray against them? How could we pray for those who attack us and still hate them? Jesus has told us the prayer that God answers: "Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us." Forgive all our unkindness to others to the same extent that we forgive our enemies.
The letters written to the earliest churches keep repeating that message, in two forms: forgive and you will be forgiven, as Jesus said; and forgive as you have already been forgiven yourself. We read a part of Romans 12: "Bless people who harass you—bless and don't curse them…Don't pay back anyone for their evil actions with evil actions, but show respect for what everyone else believes is good. If possible, to the best of your ability, live at peace with all people. Don't try to get revenge…Don't be defeated by evil, but defeat evil with good" (vs. 14, 17-19, 20 CEB).
Those are hard lessons to learn, I know. We have been reminded in the past couple of days that it is possible to learn them, though. Whenever people talk about the influence of Nelson Mandela, someone always brings up the subject, as Savannah Guthrie put it, of "radical forgiveness." Mandela did not start out as a man who extended grace. He was a young man in hot pursuit of justice and, if necessary, revenge. He was jailed not because he was misunderstood but because he actually advocated and practiced terrorism as the only way to overturn an unjust government. But Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in prison, in terrible deprivation. He had lots of time alone to think about his own life and what would really make a difference in South Africa. He had been baptized Methodist and grew up Christian, but in prison his faith became deeper. He said that the only people who visited the prison were religious people: Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Jewish. They all, in their own way, talked about forgiveness.
My favorite Mandela quote is this one: "As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn't leave my bitterness and hatred behind I'd still be in prison." Mandela told his biographer Rich Stengel of Time that he was different from Gandhi and King, because they came at nonviolence as a spiritual value; he came at it as a practical matter, that forgiveness and reconciliation was the only way for his society to survive and for living in freedom to be possible. It wasn't, Stengel said, that Mandela wasn't angry about what had been done to him. He had tremendous anger, but he hid that in order to work for peace. When Mandela became president, he had it in his power to have his enemies arrested and tried and even put to death, but he knew that it would destroy the nation—an d, I would speculate, he knew that it would destroy his own soul. He didn't want to go there. It wasn't the way he wanted to live, even in his private life.
In 1994, before he was elected to office, with the white President de Clerk in the audience, Mandela gave a speech at the Easter celebration at the headquarters of the Zion Christian Church, one of the largest churches started by Africans. He began, "Easter is a festival of human solidarity, because it celebrates the fulfilment of the Good News, the Good News borne by our risen Messiah who chose not one race, who chose not one country, who chose not one language, who chose not one tribe, who chose all of humankind! We pray with you for the blessings of human solidarity, because there are so many who wish to divide us! We pray with you for the blessings of reconciliation among all the people of South Africa! We pray with you so that the blessings of peace may descend upon South Africa like a torrent! We pray with you that the blessings of love may flow like a mighty stream!"
Later in his speech, he came back to the subject of Jesus: "Each Easter marks the rebirth of our faith. It marks the victory of our risen Savior over the torture of the cross and the grave. Our Messiah, who came to us in the form of a mortal man, but who by his suffering and crucifixion attained immortality. Our Messiah, born like an outcast in a stable, and executed like criminal on the cross. Our Messiah, whose life bears testimony to the truth that there is no shame in poverty: Those who should be ashamed are they who impoverish others. Whose life testifies to the truth that there is no shame in being persecuted: Those who should be shamed are they who persecute others. Whose life proclaims the truth that there is no shame in being conquered: Those who should be ashamed are they who conquer others. Whose testifies to the truth that there is no shame in being dispossessed: Those who should be ashamed are they who dispossesses others. Whose life testifies to the truth that there is no shame in being oppressed: Those who should be ashamed are they who oppress others."
That, friends in how God came down. Mandela reminds us what it means to pray "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." May it be so.

Fantastic Couples Retreat on the Fantasy Dec 15th
Disney Fantasy 7 Night Cruise
Cast of Characters: Myself, and my wife Tawnya
Itinerary: St. Thomas, Puerto Rico, Castaway Cay
Dates: December 15-22, 2012
Now that the holidays are over and I am all settled back into normal life, I figured I would share my trip report with you all because I appreciate every other member who does this Plus, it will let me reminisce a bit.
Here we are, the happy couple and true kids at heart!
Onto day 1:
We live in Florida so we weren't in any great rush to start out 2 hour drive to the port. However, I really wanted to leave at 11 AM which in my wife's brain meant 11:30. We had a nice relaxing morning downing a whole pot of coffee and 11 AM came and went, and then 11:30 also passed us by. I was getting a little agitated, but we were on vacation so I was going to just go with the flow and not be my normal time obsessed crazy person. I think it was around 12:30 when we finally left the house, still not to panicked and happy to be finally on the road. My wife asks, "Are you sure we have everything?", my response, "Of course, I think we have to much!" Onto to Port Canaveral... or so we thought. About 30 minutes away, I abruptly slammed on the brakes and made a u-turn. I exclaimed, "I forgot out garment bag!" and some other non Disney words All of our formal and dressy clothes we hanging on the back of our bedroom door, very bad place to leave them. Drive back, pick up the final piece of luggage and hit the road again, now around 1:30. I am now freaking out a bit, but trying to keep it under control, while driving like Mario Andretti. The worst part was we made reservations at Park-n-Cruise so we weren't even going directly to the port. Somehow, we made it to Park-n-Cruise at 3:30 and were whisked away to the ship. Nice thing with someone else driving, I was able to get some good photos:
We were at the desk in the terminal by 3:45 and were heckled a bit by the staff in a friendly way. By the way, the terminal looked very cool all decorated for Christmas. We made it on the ship with enough time to walk to our room, check out our free gift:
and walk rather briskly to the lifeboat drill which is now inside and no more life vests. Odd to us and I miss the silly pictures we would take with our vests on, but a lot more comfortable.
By the way, the ship is gorgeous!!! The Christmas decorations added a nice touch and we both felt were just enough without being overwhelming. Our favorite was the ginger bread house which smelled amazing.
Despite a little skepticism, we attended the welcome aboard show and were very happy we did, we got pumped up for the rest of the entertainment and got a preview of the magician on board, Jason Bishop, who we both loved.
Dinner the first night was at Enchanted Garden and we got to meet our wait staff of Jaycon and Nelson, who I dubbed Jelson so I would remember their names Our only table mates who were another couple was dining at Palo so we could spread out comfortably which was perfect because I literally ordered every appetizer. Dinner was delicious, a huge step up from what we experienced on the Dream in September of 2011. We stuffed ourselves. I am not that impressed by the decor of the Enchanted Gardens, it is cute how it changes from day to night, but I think they could do a little better theming the area. Just my 2 cents though.
We walked around a bit and headed back to our room. It was a crazy day and we were going to take advantage of the free, yes I said free, movies on demand.
Despite me being super stressed about almost missing the ship, my wife's attitude was a more positive one. She was just happy we didn't have to wait in any lines, that's my girl.
Stay tuned for Day 2, and feel free to bombard me with questions.

Day 2
At Sea!
Sea days are some of our favorite times on a cruise, just a chance to explore, relax and see all that the ship has to offer. Today we were in for a treat, we had 12:30 reservations for Palo for brunch, but before we stuffed our faces we headed to the DVC social in the tube. This is always a great time with games, a chance to meet fellow members, free swag, and finally Mimosas! We met a couple who even figured out how to bring their dog on board as a service animal, it was also their 26th cruise which was quite inspiring. We watched a presentation, played a game which our team won and had an overall great time. We really want to add some points to our membership, but didn't have the funds to do it this round, maybe next cruise. It is the best time to do it with the offered incentives. OK, enough about that and onto the food!
If you love food and go on a cruise, please do yourself a favor and go to Palo for brunch, it is really just that good. We had an amazing seat by the window in a huge booth and we completely stuffed ourselves. Some of our highlights were the shrimp shooters and caviar for me and the shrimp and artichokes for my wife. I also really enjoyed the grape, blue cheese and wine pizza. It is making me hungry just thinking about it. Here is a view of the seafood table:
Also, don't plan on it being a fast meal. I think we took our time and were getting almost kicked out around 3:00
The food quality and assortment are out of this world. 2 very happy thumbs up.
I really wanted to work out after the food implosion, but the spin class at 4:00 was already filled. Tip, if you want to do any of the exercise classes, sign up first thing in the morning or they fill up very fast.
We just walked around from that point and ended up at the early Aladdin show which was an amazing production, especially considering you are at sea on a ship. There were some characters that we missed, but the genie was a ham and the magic carpet scene really impressed.
Dinner was here before we knew it, especially since it was formal night so we of course had to get all fancy.
Dinner was at the Royal Palace which is absolutely gorgeous! We also met our table mates, Robert and Diana who were on their honeymoon. We really hit it off with them as they were huge Disney fans like ourselves. Food was french fare and was once again amazing, surprised I was hungry, but I managed to eat my fair share of the menu.
After dinner, we did the picture taking tour and got some great shots from the on board photographers and then headed to the adults only magic show. There was a lot of close up magic which was unique and the magician had a great sense of humor. We were kind of hoping for some more larger illusions, but were still very impressed and happy. After the show, we were pooped so we headed back to our room.
Some notes: The weather was pretty crappy, first time cruising in December, all of our other 6 cruises were in hurricane season and this was the first time we had bad weather. Also, we had custom plastic cups made with straws that we were able to refill with beverages and take everywhere with us including adult beverages that were in our fridge

I would have so been freaking out heading out on the road that late! <-- I guess fainting is probably not the best idea at that moment, though!
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about this itinerary, as it is one I would love to do!

Day 3
Is that the sun?
I was starting to feel all the food that I had been eating catching up with me so I snuck out bed early and headed to the stairs and the outdoor jogging track. I did 5 complete trips from deck 1 to deck 12 on the stairs and then headed outside for a nice 5K around the track. Talk about working out in paradise, the sun was shining and quite a few people were out getting their early morning workout on.
Workout done, time to get my lovely wife and replace some of the calories I burned off. We made the trek to Cabanas and I discovered something I had never tried before, muesli. The best way I can describe it is a cold granola oatmeal cereal, but I love it! By the way, Cabanas has a very nice spread for breakfast and I was delighted to get some Mickey waffles with strawberry sauce, I swear they use cake batter to make those delicious things. We ran into our server Jaycon in Cabanas and he totally said hi to us by name. I don't know about you, but I love the fact when people actually remember our names. It is a small thing, but one that makes a huge difference.
After breakfast it was totally time for some sun and we headed to the adults area for some quiet relaxation. Well, we thought we were in the adults area, turns out that right above Cove Cafe is not adults only and we had some young kids playing about. Didn't bother me, but another couple complained and were told that the sun deck for adults was actually another deck higher, who knew? It was so nice finally being able to soak up some vitamin D and we lounged around for bit before we got to crispy.
I think we were both ready for a little air conditioning so we chose to see Wreck it Ralph in 3D
Let me just say the movie theater on the ship had some of the best sound I have ever heard and they used very high quality 3D glasses, not the cheap throw aways you get at most theaters. As far as the movie, we really enjoyed it. Neither of us was expecting much, but we both left happy Having first run movies on the ship is just another perk of sailing with Disney especially if you are a big movie buff like we are.
After the movie we headed over to the Walt Disney Theater to see the matinee showing of Disney Wishes. I feel like a broken record, but once again Disney impressed with its use of live actors, set pieces and music. The thing I was most impressed with and also very excited about was they had full costume characters with eyes and mouths that actually moved. I read that they used this technology for Mickey in the parks at one point, but I didn't expect to see it on the cruise. It just adds another dimension to already superb production.
After all this sitting around, it was time for a coffee refresher so we headed to Cove Cafe for some espresso goodness. We absolutely love this coffee shop on board, it is just so comfortable. We find ourselves, just wanting to curl up and relax there with a big cup of deliciousness.
After some recharging, we headed back to our room to get ready for dinner. We were both determined to catch some live music before our meal so we didn't dawdle as much as normal.
After getting ready, we headed to La Piazza to listen to a pianist do a Billy Joel tribute which I thoroughly enjoyed. I sang along, as Tawnya laughed at me while enjoying a delicious cocktail.
We had a little fun on the scooter that was parked in the corner of the bar too.
Tonight's dinner was at Animators Palette and it was the Crush show which we already experienced on the Dream. However, like almost everything we had experienced on the Fantasy, we enjoyed the show more and found it a lot less intrusive than it was on the Dream. Our favorite item on the menu that night was the Black Truffle Pasta Purseittes. These were creamy, amazing goodness. I think I had 2 orders of them!
After dinner, we headed to the Tube for the first time at night.
The Bucket Boys, who were a percussion team who used garbage cans and such to create rhythm and music, were up on stage. They used some adult comedy while entertaining the crowd and we laughed out loud for a good portion of the show.
Time for sleep, tomorrow was going to be our first port, St. Thomas, are we couldn't wait.

Day 4
Land Ho!
Let me first say, St. Thomas is incredibly beautiful!
Check out this view from our balcony
We didn't plan any excursions or tours because we wanted to go explore the island on our own and heard taxis were inexpensive and plentiful. Also, we wanted to get some Christmas shopping done.
Here is the thing, taxis aren't really what we think of in the states as taxis, they are more like open air vans that shuttle tourists around. This was fine with us and $4 a person to get to downtown seemed like a pretty good deal.
View from the cab ride:
Downtown St. Thomas is a mecca for jewelry and watches! There is a jewelry store every couple of feet and everyone wants you to come in to see their goods. This would have been awesome if we wanted or could afford to buy everyone nice jewelry for Christmas, but we were looking for more unique hand crafted goods. There were a couple of stores that had unique artisan goods, but the prices were still kind of steep. We still spent a good deal of time walking up and down every street in the shopping district. St. Thomas is very nice in the fact that the locals aren't pushy at all and it feels very safe unlike some other islands we have visited. Despite all the jewelry stores, there is a large outdoor flea market setup that did have some great deals on costume jewelry and knock off purses. We made a couple of purchases there and decided to go explore some more.
We found a very cool, ancient looking white staircase that just seemed to head straight up the side of the mountain, so of course we had to climb it.
Here is a shot of our lovely ship, from the top of the stairs
We also saw a giant native iguana strolling around, always cool to see wildlife roaming around that you only normally see in a cage.
We continued going up and ran into Blackbeards castle which was cool except for the fact that they wanted you to pay for a tour to really explore the grounds so we took a couple of quick pics and headed for "99 Stairs" which is a famous for some off reason. We descended them and they were very steep and old, but not to bad. Just another thing we can say we did
Picture of the fort near the entrance of downtown
All this climbing and stairs had made up super hungry so we headed into a shop to ask for some good local opinions. We have found this is the best way to find good food when traveling, avoid the tourist traps and ask the locals. We ended up at a little hole in the wall called Jen's and the food was very delicious and they made their own hot sauce there which was nothing like we ever tasted, it was actually clear but had just the right amount of fire. After enjoying the very late lunch, we jumped on a taxi to head back near the port because we wanted to check out the shops there and also buy some alcohol for friends and family. After a traffic filled trip back to the port, we chose the biggest liquor store we saw on the way there and walked over. Let me just say, if you like to drink St. Thomas has the best prices on liquor we have ever seen. For instance, 2 bottles of Petron for $60 which is insane. I am not even a big drinker and I was very impressed. So we filled 2 easily carry able boxes of liquor and made the walk back to the ship. Now I heard most cruises confiscate your liquor and return it to you at the end of the cruise, but not Disney, we walked right through security and brought the items directly to our room. Good to know if you want to buy something in port and drink it that night.
St. Thomas was also Pirate Night! We actually decided to not go to our assigned dinner because we wanted to be hungry for the pirate buffet which is later in the night so we hit up Cabanas early for dinner. To our surprise, it is no longer a buffet for dinner, but more of a casual sit down restaurant. This was fine for us and the food was still quite good, although not the same quality as we came to expect from the main dining rooms. We also still had some excellent servers which one comes to expect from Disney.
We attended the deck party and the fireworks and they did not disappoint.
Pictures never do it justice and the fact that it is done from the side of a ship boggles our minds.
Notes from the day: Next time we go to St. Thomas, we want to head over to St. Johns to go to the beach, take the cable car to the top of the mountain and bring more money to buy ourselves some nice sparkly souvenirs. It is definitely a place we want to return to.

I believe it was liquor mart and it was on the main road in a small strip plaza. Easily a 5 minute walk from the cruise.

Puerto Rico
The port we were most excited about!
Yes, San Juan was the port we were most excited about when we booked this cruise, so of course we had to deal with not one, but two disasters on this day. First, we wake up to torrential downpours that weren't even hinted at by the weather reports the previous day and worse , my poor wife was up with serious stomach issues most of the night and felt absolutely horrible. However, we were determined to make the best of the situation and somehow pulled ourselves together to depart the ship.
Disney stepped up and provided free, yes I said free, rain ponchos to everyone who wanted one as we exited the ship. I didn't expect this and would have gladly bought some, but cheers to Disney's customer service once again
Here is what greeted us when we stepped off the dock, people were still determined to have a good time:
It was cold and wet and we made it a couple of blocks in to a Starbucks of all places because my wife was already crashing down. After much deliberation and pouts my wife thought it would be best if she headed back to the ship and slept, but she made me promise I would walk around San Juan and take lots of pictures and get some souvenirs. I reluctantly walked her back to the ship and headed out on my photo mission. It was sad being on my own, but I tried to make the best of it and just hoped that she would feel better later. I actually walked San Juan in a grid pattern and saw just about every street, building and sculpture the city had to offer. There are 2 very cool forts on the outskirts of the city, I didn't go into them, but got a few cool photos. The buildings are very unique and painted in bright colors. I found everyone very friendly and really enjoyed the city. When lunch time rolled around I was excited about the prospect of trying some "street food", but I had trouble finding it. I asked a couple of shops and learned that the main street usually has a line of food trucks on it, but when I made my way to it there were 3 and nothing looked to appealing. Later on, I found out that it is usually only busy on the weekends. San Juan has your usual high end designer stores, but if you look hard you can find some unique local stores that have a lot of personality and high quality items. I found the prices reasonable in the smaller local stores, but the big designer stores were actually more expensive than in the states. One of my favorite parts of the city was the fact that there is an abundance of cats patrolling the streets, so of course I had to befriend one. There was even some stores that had "Save the Gato" chain collection cans. Apparently some city officials don't like the friendly mascots.
My little friend:
I did pick up a few souvenirs and some hand made jewelry for my wife from a street vendor. I also bought myself a knock off Fox Racing hat for $5, couldn't pass that up.
Eventually I made my way back to the ship because I missed and was worried about my wife. I also wanted to tell her about my adventures exploring the city.
Here are a bunch of photos taken while in San Juan:
An incredibly social bird I met while in one of the shops that specialized in poetry:
Creepy, but cool
View from the city wall
When I returned to the ship, my wife was still down for the count. Apparently she developed some really nasty bug. We really just hung out in our room the rest of the night, I headed up to Cabanas by myself for a quick dinner, but the rest of the evening was spent watching movies in our room.
I would definitely like to come back to Puerto Rico for a long weekend, I only scratched the surface of the cool things to do in this magical place.
Saying goodbye to San Juan

School plans service Kendra Bowers
A private memorial service has been planned for a college student from Rhode Island who died while skiing in Vermont.
A spokeswoman for St. George's School in Middletown says the school will hold a memorial service for classmates, family and friends of Kendra Bowers on Sunday at the school chapel. The service and campus will be closed to the public.
Police say the 19-year-old University of Vermont sophomore was skiing Saturday at Sugarbush Ski Resort in Warren, Vt., when she lost control, went off a trail and hit a trail sign. Police say she was treated at the ski area and died upon arrival at Central Vermont Hospital.
Bowers was a native of Newport and graduated from the private St. George's School in 2012.

Celestial Skies: Crescent Moon & Star Earrings
Sway to the charms of a celestial sky filled with stars and a crescent moon in the form of a late 19th century earring of 10k yellow gold. A claw set old European cut diamond of about .17 carats (I-J color; SI1 clarity) gently swings ever so gently upon a baton with gold finials on each end. The diamond is centered within an open work waning crescent moon, also articulated and accented with golden bars and globes. A trio of stylized trefoil designs appoints the top of the earring adding a harmonious balance to the articulated earring.
Date: Circa 1900.
Measurements: 1-7/8 inch (2.2 cm) in total length including ear wires by 3/8 of an inch (1.0 cm) in diameter. Weight of 2.9 grams (1.8 dwt) for the pair.
Condition: Excellent; one minute repair to a gold suspension "O" fitting.
Note: Diamonds were not removed to preserve the integrity of the setting. Weights are approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weights. Grading may vary if stones are removed.

Yeah I don't know if I can personally justify spending 60 bucks on it. Whereas 15 would have been a day one purchase.
Saying that it looks amazing and if I were more than a casual fan of 2D platforming (much prefer 3D myself) I would definitely be more excited for this.
Donkey Kong and Kirby both worked as full retail releases so this should too.

text: Had the regime underststood what the internet would mean– the destructon of official media and the proliferation of unofficial thinking, booming web commerce instead of brick and mortar stores, etc.–it never would have allowed it to come into existence. Given their typical mistake–they are always trying to catch up to the market–surely the smartest minds in the state stay up late thinking of how to wreck the internet in ways that will not undermine the state through public anger. Here is the latest scheme from beloved neocon Richard Posner. This government judge proposes outlawing linking without prior permission, to destroy Google news and other aggregators that necessarily have no government-approved gatekeepers, and all unapproved web media. In particular, Posner–a crazed IPnik (for the libertarian view, see here and here) as well–also wants to protect government's beloved newspapers, as if any young person would then pick up one of these expensive, hand-staining pieces of federal propaganda. So what would happen if Posner got his way (impossible, I guess, given all the great hackers, etc.)? We'd all link to foreign sites only, which would then cover US goings-on even more fully, because they would want the traffic. The Washington Post, the New York Times, and all the rest of the CIA's house organs would continue to decline until they are bailed out by some Obama stimulus, thus making clear what has long been the case, that they serve the state.

The Shoes That Won Last Night: Kyrie Irving Wins All-Star MVP Honors
Back in December, we said that Kyrie Irving was the NBA player most deserving of his own signature sneaker. Last night, as he took the hardwood with the league's best players, Irving may have taken one step closer to making our prediction a reality.
In the offensive showcase that was the All-Star Game, the Eastern Conference rallied to a 163-155 win over the West. It was Irving, with 31 points and 14 assists, who took home the night's MVP award in just his second All-Star Game appearance. There was no slacking on the rest of the East roster, either, as LeBron put up 22 points and Carmelo Anthony set a record for most three-pointers in an ASG with 8. On the opposing side, Blake Griffin and Kevin Durant turned the night into a highlight reel in their respective All-Star colorway sneakers.
Meanwhile, in NCAA action, No. 18 Creighton dealt No. 6 Villanova a 101-80 upset. The Bluejays were fueled by 39 points and 7 boards from Doug McDermott, who surpassed Larry Bird for the 13th spot on the all-time Division I scoring leaders.
Riley Jones is a freelance writer from Charlottesville, VA and a contributor to Sneaker Report. With an unshakable affinity for basketball and all things '90s, he can be found on Twitter @rchrstphr.
