Mariners, Amtrak fault proposed arena design
Seattle Mariners and Amtrak representatives questioned the proposed design for the proposed Sodo sports arena Tuesday night, saying they had concerns about pedestrian safety.

Editorial & Opinion
Representatives of the Seattle Mariners and Amtrak told a city design-review board Tuesday night that the proposed plans for a new sports arena in Seattle's Sodo District jeopardize pedestrian access and safety.
An agreement between the Mariners and arena proponent Chris Hansen to limit simultaneous events at Safeco Field, CenturyLink Field and the new arena could minimize conflicts with traffic and pedestrians, said Mariners' attorney Melody McCutcheon.
In the absence of those agreements, she said, "we have significant concerns whether this is workable."
The main entryway in the architects' preferred design relies on public access along Occidental Avenue South and South Massachusetts Street. McCutcheon said those streets now provide access to the Mariners parking garage and for emergency vehicles.
The Mariners have previously opposed the arena's Sodo location on grounds that it could worsen traffic congestion on game days.
Rob Eaton, director of government affairs for Amtrak, said he was concerned about a secondary entrance to the arena proposed for South Holgate Street, noting that the street crosses nine active railway lines.
"Our consideration is safety. We ask that the city and the design team look at the nexus of pedestrians and vehicles," Eaton said.
The architectural team for Hansen gave its second presentation of design options for the arena to the Seattle Downtown Design Review Board and a public audience of about 50 people at Seattle City Hall.
The preferred alternative features a stepped plaza rising from South Massachusetts about 30 feet to the arena's concourse level. The designers, 360 Architects of Kansas City, show the entryway covered with high canopies so crowds can gather even in poor weather.
A glass entryway and windows around the upper floors would allow views of downtown Seattle and the Port of Seattle's working cranes, allowing sports fans and concertgoers to orient themselves within the building, the architects said.
Members of the design board questioned whether the entryway steps would encourage activity more than a flat, open public plaza would, particularly when events weren't scheduled.
"It's not obvious to me that the grand-steps option would make the space more active, rather than the opposite," said Brian Scott, the board's developer representative.
Hansen's land-use attorney, Jack McCullough, said Hansen's representatives planned to meet with other sports teams and stadium authorities to discuss scheduling and operations in the stadium district. The design team asked to return to the board in January with more developed drawings.
Early public reaction to the arena's design, released 10 days ago, was harsh, with criticism aimed particularly at the prominent angled protrusion in the center of the building, which some said resembled the smokestack of a Washington state ferry or made the whole arena look like a Sherman tank.
The lead designer, Mathew Hallett, described the "icon" at the center as giving the arena a landmark quality, particularly if it was lit after dark.
"Nighttime, that's when it would really come alive," he said.
The five-member Downtown Design Review Board, comprised of architects and developers, must decide whether the proposed design fits within the city's downtown design guidelines.
Those guidelines direct architects to create buildings that fit an urban neighborhood, improve pedestrian safety and access and create a memorable "sense of place." One guideline calls for the building to enhance the city skyline with an upper portion that promotes "visual interest and variety."
The Design Review Board makes recommendations to the developer about potential revisions and to the city about whether the project should advance to permitting. The city Department of Planning and Development gives final project approval.
The city is determining the scope of a required environmental review of the Sodo location and what alternative sites will be considered.

Comments about Leg Avenue Petal Pink Princess Costume:
My daughter loves to dress up in "fancy" dresses. She wanted a pink one and this was by far the best value and quality I found. (On sale for less than $20 at the time I purchased.) I think I read a review elsewhere that said that they ran small, so I ordered her the size Large (7-10), and glad I did. (Her other "cosume dresses" are the 4-6x size. The 7-10 size of this one is just slightly big at the top; I am sure the smaller size of this would not have even gone over her head). Great product!

Comments about Leg Avenue Petal Pink Princess Costume:
My 4 1/2 yr old daughter wanted a "real" princess dress that was long and full. I bought it big so can have it awile to grow into. It seems to be made well. The skirt is full and on the heavier side so it sways as she moves. She loves this!She would wear it every single day if I let her - to any place she can. She puts on her pricness shoes with the dress and accessories and truly is a beautiful princess is this Petal Pink Princess dress. This was one of the best toy/costume purchases we have made. She loves it and so does mommy too.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Working Group, Façade Access, Co-Chair (2012-present)
Chicago, USA
Lerch Bates
Lee Herzog entered the Façade Access field in the mid 70s, as a manufacturer and designer, of permanent equipment, under the name Citadel Inc. Lee selected the Citadel name as its definition is a "Strong High Place" and ironically enough it was the name of his college yearbook. He and his partners sold Citadel Inc. to a foreign firm in the early 80s. Lee continued to manage Citadel, for the new owners for several years. In that position, he continued to design façade access systems for high-rise projects around the world.
During that same time, Lee was selected to design an access system for the US Air Force Minuteman Missile Silo program. In order to understand the design requirements for the silo access, Lee witnessed the launching of several Minuteman Missiles.
Lee then formed a façade access-consulting firm, and for over twenty years operated under the name of Citadel Consulting Inc, which was a division of Lerch Bates Inc. Lee remains with Lerch Bates Inc, as president of the Façade Access Consulting Group, with head offices in Chico, Ca.
Lee served as the Chairman of the ASME -120 "Safety Requirements for Powered Platform and Travelling Ladders and Gantries for Building Maintenance" committee for nearly twenty years. Lee continues to serve on the ASME National Board OF Safety, Codes, and Standards.
Lee's high-rise projects read like the Who's Who of tall buildings. These projects include The Burj-Dubai, Petronas Towers-KL, Jin Mao-Shanghai, Bank of China and Two International Finance Center-HK, and Taipei 101, to name a few. In addition to his high-rise efforts, Lee has designed façade access equipment for several unique architectural projects, including; Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Disney Concert Center-LA, Princeton Library-NJ, McCormick Place-Chicago, and Experience Music-Seattle.

Soo Meta is a Storify for Video
As far as newsgathering tools go, Storify has radically changed how reporters navigate breaking news and information on social media. In just a matter of clicks, a writer can pull together dozens of tweets, videos and photos onto one platform and collate it into one thorough, complete story. Although it provides for media, there isn't an easy transition from one video to another.
Now, reporters can create high-impact story compilations with Soo Meta, a video mashup tool that enables users to piece together different Youtube clips to create a cohesive story based around a topic or idea. Users can pull in information from Youtube, Pinterest and Twitter and create full multimedia compilations. Each segment can be controlled and clipped, so only the most important parts of a video would make it into the final piece.

- 2 cups corn, from about 2 ears of corn, or 2 cups frozen and thawed kernels
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water and season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well, then cool slightly. Return the potatoes to the pot and, using a masher, mash the potatoes.
Meanwhile, melt the butter in medium, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and corn and saute about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the cream and cook over medium-low heat for 3 minutes longer.
Add the sauteed corn to the mashed potatoes and stir to combine until the liquid is fully absorbed. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Its hard to say as you have no baseline for that rifle and that load. Could be really good could be pretty mediocre.
Nobody is going to hold an iron sighted rifle to 1 MOA across the course. Not even a match rifle with match sights shooting match ammo. The 10 ring on an NRA HP target is about 2 MOA and the X ring is about 1 MOA. In ten years of shooting at hundreds of matches, regional matches, Rocky Mountain Long Range chapmionships, and Camp Perry I've never ever seen a perfect score of 800 points which would mean the person held the rifle to 2 MOA for 80 shots--certainly not any perfect x counts.
Now I've cleaned a stage at 200, 300 and 600 yards before where I shot 200 out of 200 possible points. And I've seen a few people shoot a perfect 20 count X ring in a given stage of a match. But we are talking REALLY rarified air here and not something the average person could do and frankly the top rifle shots in the country could not repeat that performance any time they wanted to.
You don't need to take my word for any of this. The scores of the National Highpower Matches are published for all to see on the NRA competitions website. The dimensions of the NRA HP targets are available for all to examine. Show me a perfect score? Ever? When you do that means that guy held his rifle to 2 MOA. Perfect X count? That means he held it to 1 MOA. Never been done that I've seen in the history of the sport.

Russia has rejected an apparent attempt by Kurmanbek Bakiyev, Kyrgyzstan's ousted leader, to retract his resignation from office.
Sergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, said during a news conference on Thursday that Bakiyev is not the president of Kyrgyzstan, despite his claims to the contrary.
He said Bakiyev had faxed his resignation to Bishkek, the Kyrgyz capital, "so this document cannot be rejected by a verbal statement".
On Wednesday, Bakiyev, speaking from Minsk, the Belarusian capital, said that he did not recognise his own resignation. He called on international officials not to acknowledge the country's new leaders that came into power after an April 7 uprising.
Bakiyev's statement came on the same day that the interim government set parliamentary elections for October 10, with the potential for presidential polls on the same date.
No presidential immunity
Roots of Kyrgyz uprising persist
Interview: Roza Otunbayeva
The polls will come after a referendum on constitutional change on June 27 aimed at reducing the powers of the president by creating a parliamentary republic with strong checks and balances.
Omurbek Tekebayev, a deputy prime minister who is in charge of constitutional reform, said on national television: "A referendum will take place on June 27 and parliamentary elections on October 10, possibly jointly presidential."
"The government has approved the timetable.
"In the new draft, the state and political system will be set up to prevent concentration of power in one hand.
"The president will lose his immunity and his family will not be subsidised by the state. The head of state will live on his own salary."
The proposed constitution will also limit to 50 the number of seats one party is allowed to hold in the 90-seat parliament.
The interim government has accused Bakiyev and his allies of election fraud last year and widespread corruption. His Ak-Zol party dominated the last parliament.
US base
The Central Asian state's new government has also accused the former leader of ordering the shooting of protesters during the April unrest, that led to the deaths of 85 people.
A senior interim official also said on Thursday that a decision on whether to allow the US to keep an air base in the country, used to support operations in Afghanistan, will not be taken until after the elections.
Roza Otunbayeva, the head of the interim government, said last week that Bakiyev had submitted his resignation in a hand-written letter faxed to the capital, Bishkek.
Otunbayeva read portions of the letter in a televised address to the nation last Friday.
The day before Bakiyev had fled to neighbouring Kazakhstan, ending days of turmoil.
The interim government has said that Bakiyev will face trial for his alleged crimes.

Romanian Film Dubbing
For the generation of Romanians who grew up under Nicolae Ceausescu, the voice of our next guest may well have brought them hours of solace during that bleak and terrible era. Irina Margareta Nistor was an employee at the State Censorship Committee when in 1986 until the Communist regime collapsed, she began a second and illicit job dubbing more than 5,000 mainly Hollywood movies. They were banned and had to be smuggled into the country. She's voiced everyone from Jesus to Bruce Lee to Baloo from The Jungle Book, and she has the most recognised voice in Romania!

Mumbai - England fast bowler Stuart Broad has suffered a bruised left heel and his progress will be observed over the next couple of days, the country's cricket board (ECB) said on Monday.
The 26-year-old, leading the tourists in the second warm-up game against Mumbai A in place of the rested Alastair Cook, felt discomfort in his left ankle on Sunday and did not bowl after tea.
"Scans show Broad has a bruised left heel. He is fit to field but won't bowl today (Monday)," a text message from the ECB said.
"Progress will be monitored over next couple of days."
The tourists are already sweating over the fitness of paceman Steven Finn, who limped off the field on the opening day of England's first warm-up match with a right thigh strain.
Surrey fast bowler Stuart Meaker has been drafted into England's squad as cover.
England will play their final warm-up match from Thursday against Haryana before the four-test series against India starts in Ahmedabad on November 15.

Azure Power India Pvt., a developer of solar plants, won a grant from the U.S. Trade and Development Agency for a project aimed at helping to bring sun-based power to rural villages.
The $476,670 grant will fund microgrids powered by two 500- kilowatt photovoltaic plants in the states of Gujarat and Chhattisgarh, according to an e-mailed statement from Azure.
A microgrid helps deliver electricity locally to communities that don't have access to grid power by setting up standalone generators, storage and distribution infrastructure nearby.
Azure plans to set up 100 microgrid solar systems to power as many as 1,000 villages, the company said.

Regional airline departures irk Northwest towns
NEWPORT, Ore. (AP) – The decision by a Portland-based regional airline to stop service to several Northwest towns after receiving economic incentives has left some community leaders unhappy.
Sponsored Links
But SeaPort Airlines says it can't fly if it can't make a profit, and it's changing its business strategy.
In the last year, SeaPort has added and abandoned service in five different places, The Oregonian reported. Last week it said it would drop its Portland-to-Seattle flights and cease operations at Seattle's Boeing Field,
SeaPort started service between Portland and Seattle in 2008. The following spring, subsidized by $4.5 million in state and federal grants, it began service to Newport and Astoria on Oregon's coast.
It left Astoria about the same time the subsidies ran out, in March. It left Newport in July.
It added a stop in Salem in late April and left after three months, giving less than a week's notice to the Oregon capital city, which spent $10,000 marketing the service.
SeaPort began flying Idaho Falls to Boise in July and gave notice it was leaving less than six months later.
"Their track record is not very good at this point," said Newport Mayor Mark McConnell. "If I was a city of people trying to make a decision to help them out, absolutely I'd be leery about giving them a whole lot of money up front."
Tim Sieber, a SeaPort vice president, said there were not enough passengers in the coastal towns and Salem.
"We tried to use more economical planes to lower costs," he said. "We stayed in Newport after the subsidy, and tried the stop in Salem. That didn't even pay to cover the cost of wear and tear on the brakes to be quite blunt about it."
In Idaho Falls, airport aviation director Len Nelson said business was good and getting better. "We were just starting to fill the airplanes up," he said. "Out of nine seats, we were filling it a lot of times, and averaging five-six passengers a flight."
Sieber said the distance of the 200-mile Idaho flight and the airline's plan to switch to more economical but slower aircraft were factors, and the airline learned lessons.
"There is a direct highway link," he said. "Traffic-wise it was good, but there was a tipping point where people were willing to fly in an airplane and then as you edge up the fare, people say, no, I'm going to drive."
The airline now wants to develop routes in rural towns not linked to bigger cities by interstate highways, Sieber said, with routes of less than 200 miles.
The company plans new service in North Bend, Ore., Yakima and Wenatchee in central Washington and Jackson and Nashville in Tennessee, reflecting a dual focus on the Northwest and the mid-South. The company also flies in Alaska, Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri and Texas.
Rural routes give SeaPort a chance to expand without heavy competition, Sieber said. The federal government subsidizes many of SeaPort's rural routes through its Essential Air Service program. Sieber said the payments, with $9.8 million expected this year, cover 20% to 60% of operating costs.
In North Bend, the airport is waiving landing and counter space fees for the first six months, providing personnel on the tarmac and at the customer service counter for the first four months, and also marketing the airline.
"We did the math," executive director Therese Cook said. "Basically, the revenue exceeds the waivers. No matter the history of SeaPort, I have to look at a whole new scenario. I honestly believe SeaPort is going to be a really good fit."

Massey Ferguson 9280 DELTA Debut Impresses
The MF 9280 DELTA combine's debut harvest season saw more than 20 machines showing their paces across Europe in every conceivable crop.
The last unit finished in Northern Germany in maize as late as mid-December 2010. This Hybrid harvester was the world's first combine to use e3 Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology and is packed with a range of innovative features to provide high capacity with exceptional economy.
"In many cases the combines were working head-to-head against competitor machines," says Adam Sherriff, Manager Powered Harvesting. "The MF DELTA impressed users with its exceptional output, clean sample and low losses. This, coupled with extremely low fuel consumption, places the Massey Ferguson DELTA combine at the top of its class."
The demonstration teams were out in force in Germany, UK, Denmark, Sweden, Hungary, Czech Republic and Poland and harvested over 6000 ha between them. "All units were fitted with the new AGCOMMAND telemetry-based machine management system which enabled us to view the machines on Google maps on a daily basis," Adam remarks. "We could see which machines were working and where – right from our desktop. It also allowed us to produce a raft of performance information at the touch of a button."
The HyPerforma threshing and separating system really proved its worth, clearly demonstrating that the MF DELTA is an efficient high output combine harvester suitable for the largest enterprises throughout Europe – whether operating singly or in fleets. "Tests have shown the combine not only provides the performance, but uses 10% less fuel for the same output in equivalent conditions. It takes the lead for us in terms of combine capacity, efficiency and economy," continues Adam. The MF 9280 DELTA merges Massey Ferguson's unrivalled experience in conventional drum and concave threshing with its rotary separation expertise. Together this technology offers high capacity, an exceptional grain sample and low power requirements.
"Each of the key elements in the MF 9280 DELTA combine has been developed to not only offer leading technology to boost harvesting performance, but also to improve economy," explains Adam. "To do this the combine employs top technology in every area – from the AGCO SISU POWER e³ engine, the new HyPerforma threshing system and new Venturi cleaning system through to the Min-Till chopper with the Maxi-Spread chopper hood option."
Did you see one of the demos last season? Tell us about it.
Fendt Hybrid Combine Harvester
The Fendt X-series hybrid combines with HyPerforma technology are the answer for the increasing demand for cost conscious, environmentally friendly and efficient farming. In the HyPerforma threshing and separation system, tried and tested threshing technology is perfectly combined with highly efficient rotor technology. The new 7-cylinder AGCO SISU POWER engine with e3 SCR technology delivers a maximum output of 500 hp for demanding operations. The new Fendt 9470 X stands for outstanding results and unbeatable productivity.
Do you plan on purchasing a new hybrid combine this year?

RELEASED: Sept. 9, 2010
EAU CLAIRE — "In the Loop" (United Kingdom 2009), a razor-sharp political farce nominated for an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, will screen Sept. 16-19 at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. The University Activities Commission of the Student Senate will present the film at 6 and 8:30 p.m. in Davies Theatre.
Directed by Armando Iannucci, "In the Loop" is a smart comedy and Sundance Film Festival hit from the team behind the award-winning BBC TV comedy series "Alan Partridge" and "The Thick of It." The film pokes fun at the absurdity and ineptitude of the world's highest leaders. With everyone looking out for "No. 1" and the fate of the free world at stake (but apparently incidental), the ensemble cast of characters bumbles its way through Machiavellian political dealings, across continents and toward comic resolutions that are unforeseeable.
"Taking its inspiration from the lead-up to the Iraq war, 'In the Loop' shows how the prospect of military conflict plays out on the staff level," wrote the San Francisco Chronicle. "The language is brilliant, and the laugh lines come so quickly that you'd probably have to watch the movie twice to get them all. Every actor in the cast is touched by the comic god."
Tom Hollander stars as a bumbling British government minister who makes a verbal snafu during a TV interview, inadvertently backing a U.S. war in the Middle East. The prime minister's venomous communications chief (Peter Capaldi) attempts damage control as tensions quickly escalate on both sides of the pond. Soon the Brits are in Washington, where a U.S. general (James Gandolfini) thinks war is a crazy idea, and a beleaguered American diplomat (Mimi Kennedy) scrambles to infiltrate the elusive and very hawkish War Committee.
"A sharply written, fast-talking, almost dementedly articulate satire on modern statecraft" (The New York Times), "In the Loop" received Chlotrudis awards for Best Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor (Capaldi) and Best Performance by an Ensemble Cast.
The 106-minute film is not rated.
Admission is free at the door with a Blugold Card or International Film Society membership. Community members who wish to attend campus films must purchase an annual IFS membership at the Service Center (715-836-3727) in Davies Center's east lobby. An individual membership costs $4; a family membership costs $10.
More information about the campus film series is available online and at the Activities and Programs office, Davies Center 133.

Introducing the Essay portal, beta version. My take on "How to Save Radio Shack"
(to price list)
This a new (introduced in 2002) version of my aluminum concave dome tweeter. They are smaller and hence easier to install than the larger, square one I have made for years. Their round shape has a more modern appearance and makes for a smaller, more efficient mounting area. And they sound great!
The PRO 002 M is a scant 3.5" in diameter, for mounting in tight spots. I also build a 4" diameter version, among others, which allows a larger sealing and mounting area around the magnet and terminals.
They are designed to be mounted in a 2.6" to 2.75" diameter hole, which has been enlarged on two opposite sides to allow for the terminals. The connections are 0.200" male spade lugs. The faceplate is machined from non-resonant black ABS with an attractive textured front surface. They are drilled for three #6 flat head screws or bolts (not included).
I also build the PRO 002 M2, which has an "easier to mount" 4" diameter face plate. I recommend it for general use, and the PRO 002 M where space is a serious consideration.
There are several other tweeters in the "M" series, originally developed to replace the tweeters in certain EPI models. The magnet structure and specifications are the same as the PRO 002 M. You may find their shapes and sizes useful, so they are also available for your DIY projects.
1. I built the first pair of prototypes one inspired (or bored?) winter evening. The faceplates were tediously carved from Masonite, by hand, using primitive tools. I used this pair in some refurbished speakers for my bedroom surround system, but not before taking a couple of photographs:
2. Here is a photograph of one built using a pre-production sample faceplate in March 2002:

Philippines: Typhoon Haiyan
On November 8th, 2013 the largest Typhoon on record hit the Philippines coming in at a category five typhoon and affecting over 11 million people. Many left homeless as the high speed wind and water washed away belongings and sometimes loved ones. With a rolling count of 6,500 confirmed casualties the abundance of gruesome scenes were hard to ignore. However, as aid began to arrive from all corners of the globe, many of the critical needs were slowly but surely fulfilled.
Embedded with a highly mobile team of disaster relief professionals from Team Rubicon, we navigated through rubble strewn streets of Tacloban and Carigara to find those who couldn't make it to the clinics. Between the use of small deployment teams and operating small clinics Team Rubicon altered the fate of many Filipino citizens for the better. How long it will take this region to recover is unknown but one thing is for sure and that is that the Filipino people proved to be some of most resilient welcoming people I have had the pleasure to meet during my travels.

As MTV's The Hills comes to a close, we must ask ourselves, Why this show? What was it about this show that took such a stranglehold of the cultural zeitgeist? A heavily-staged, overly stylized reality show essentially plotted around nothing but brunches and hookups was a THING? It was. It was a thing and it captured even the least tolerant of us.
The series finale is approaching and the only thing that would keep us wanting more is if, I dunno, the cast was replaced by babies? Because that would be the best.

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Twitter is on the edge of raising another $100 million in VC from around seven investors. Just last week the scuttlebutt was that this round was going to be in the range of $50 million but hey, what's an extra $50 million amongst friends, right?
Twitter, the messaging web site that has become an Internet sensation, is nearing a deal to close as much as $100 million of new funding from as many as seven investors, according to people familiar with the deal.
The investor group includes mutual fund giant T. Rowe Price and private-equity firm Insight Venture Partners, which are new investors to Twitter. The $100 million investment is about twice as much as Twitter was reportedly expected to haul in this latest round of fund-raising.

|August 23
Editor says, what if the schedule for Operation Dragoon had been accelerated? Please note that the opinions expressed in this post do not necessarily reflect the views of the author(s).
In 1944, the Allies entered Paris from the west. General Dietrich von Choltitz, commander of the 50,000 man German garrison of the city, found himself cut off by General Jacob Devers, commander of the US Sixth Army Group, advancing from the south.
Broken Watch on the Rhine Part 1Without even token resistance, he formally handed Gen. Devers his pistol, surrendering the city of Paris, its garrison, and, effectively, all other German forces in France.
In less than four weeks, the American divisions diverted from the Italian campaign, advanced from Cannes on the Mediterranean Coast to the German-Luxemboug border.
"Operation Overlord pounded the Nazi face,"l Winston Churchill wrote after the war, "but Operation Dragoon tore the spine out of the German army in France. I opposed this operation, but I was overruled, and thank God for that".
Operation Dragoon was originally scheduled to commence on Aug. 15. However, following the failure of the Allied forces in Normandy to break out of the beachhead during June, General Eisenhower ordered Allied Forces Headquarters in the Mediterranean to advance Dragoon by two weeks.
A new story by Stan BrinThe landings south of Cannes caught the German 19th Army undermanned completely unprepared. The combined American, British, and French divisions of the Sixth Army Group were virtually unopposed.
Advance was rapid and continuous. Within two weeks, the Sixth Army Group had reached Grenoble. Nothing stood between Gen. Devers' force and the German border.
A panicked Hitler allowed the German High Command to order a complete withdrawal west of the Siegfried Line. Nevertheless, the entire German 19th Army surrendered to the Americans at Lyon on Aug. 18, leaving the Seventh German Army trapped west of Paris, and within the city.
Von Choltitz' surrender on Aug.23 effectively ended the war in France. Nearly 400,000 German prisoners were captured, causing a massive supply problem for the western allies. (General Patton suggested that instead of feeding 400,000 useless mouths, the allies should "have the German prisoners take an oath to the Kaiser and fight for us, instead of the Nazis". His suggestion was turned down.)
US and British forces reached the Siegfried Line on Sept. 1 and found it manned mainly by old men and boys. Operations were hampered by supply problems and the Red Ball Express was only able to provide enough supplies for 12 divisions. These were sufficient, however, to break through to the Rhine on Sept. 10, which was crossed five days later.
The German Army attempted a counter-attack on Sept. 22, known as "Operation Watch on the Rhine" or the "Battle of the Bulge," but the allies controlled the air was complete, and the German offensive proved ephemeral despite the lavish use of heavy Tiger tanks.
This proved to be Germany's final gasp in the west. The collapse of the Wehrmacht's western front was so rapid that its eastern armies managed to remain in the field, and in control of Hungary, and much of Poland and Czechoslovakia.
Patton's Third Army reached the Elbe, completely unopposed, on Nov. 10, and Berlin on Dec, 1, 1944, less than five months after Operation Overlord, and exactly four months after Operation Dragoon.
After the war, Dutch diarist Anne Frank wrote that "Operation Dragoon saved the lives of millions who would have starved if the war had lasted through the winter. I am sure that I am among those millions who their lives to the speed of the Allied advance".
A significant portion of those millions would prove to be a significant headache for the British after the war, but that is another story...

Will the administrations mortgage refi plan help the housing market? Getting to the bottom of our housing woe`s
Recent news out of Washington gave many homeowners a glimpse of hope as the administration announced plans to refinance borrowers despite the upside risk due to underwater housing values. Many analyst`s and market watchers fear this move, albeit, good for the homeowner, still will not get to the underlying problem of the housing market. Many attempts to improve housing amidst a slow economic recovery have fallen short of providing that spark so many have hoped for. While reducing mortgage payments helps the disposable income for a great number of homeowners, it does not address the real problem plaguing a fruitful recovery. Recent reports have suggested that there is at least 3 trillion dollars lost to upside down mortgages giving many homeowners a dismal outlook. Because the administration has chosen to avoid addressing this pressing issue, we may continue to see weak numbers on the housing front. To really charge up our sluggish recovery, a program is needed to help equalize the behavioral deficiencies facing many Americans in today`s challenging housing markets? The question remains, who will bear the loss if a program for confronting this issue is created?

Time Out says
Posted: Fri Oct 4 2013
Under the helm of creative director Sarah Burton, this rebellious British label relocates its flagship uptown to a larger space. Interior-design agency David Collins Studio (davidcollins.com) worked with Burton to create the opulent 3,500-square-foot store, featuring dark marble flooring and furniture with bronze animal feet and monster claws. Look closely at the walls and you'll see shapes of feathers, wings, sea-horse tails and the famous "armadillo" shoe within the plaster molding. Glass shelves hold accessories ($350–$4,500), such as structured leather bags ($1,995–$4,500), skull-clasped minaudières ($1,400–$3,100) and ladies' embroidered velvet shoes ($500–$1,000). You'll also find the runway and ready-to-wear collections for both women ($1,200–$5,000) and men ($635–$2,500), including floral jersey dresses ($1,195) and stained-glass–print men's sweaters ($995). Those with slightly less padded wallets can check out enamel bangles ($285–$345), skull-print scarves ($295–$595) and crystal cufflinks ($175–$215).

Firstly, a little bit about us. I am a Police Officer with the Metropolitan Police Service, (London) with over 26 years service, and my wife, Fiona is a Market Research Recruiter working from home. We live in Windsor, Berkshire with our two girls of 24 and 19, and their two guinea pigs and the world's most unsociable rabbit..!! We own further rental properties in the UK and also in Dubai, but Villa Carmen is without doubt our pride and joy..!
Kevin & Fiona Graham purchased this villa in 2005
In the October of 2004, Fi and I spent a week visiting around 35 Villas for sale covering around 18 developments. We then found a villa under construction on Highlands Reserve, and instantly fell in love with the view. It was a 'no-brainer' and we put an offer in straight away, and to this day, we have never looked back. So, if the Villa itself is to form part of the holiday for you, rather than just being a "sleeping base" and you want the assurance that when you walk in you won't be disappointed (we've all been there..!!) then we may be able to help. Fi and I have spent a phenomenal amount of time (and money) making Villa Carmen somewhere we could live, and hopefully one day, who knows, perhaps we will.
It would be easy now to go into all the things that set us apart from most of the others out there….but we reckon you've heard it all before, and why should you believe us anyway..??...doesn't every parent say their baby is beautiful…?!! Enough said. All we shall do is point you in the direction of our Reviews, of which there should be over a hundred now, and you can make your own mind up. These are all the comments written in our Guest Book which we leave (obviously) at the Villa, and copy out following each of our visits.
(Comments copied from Villa Guest Book) Hi Kevin and Fiona, Happy New Year to you. We have once again thoroughly enjoyed your vacation home! It's our favourite place to visit and we have been coming to Florida for over 20 years and we have been to Florida four times this year, once to your place in December, again in March to the Tampa area, again in July with our R.V. and then back to your home now in December. Andy from your Management was excellent to deal with! We are interested in returning for the same two weeks again next year. My husband is with us this year, he could not come last year, and he was very impressed with the amenities and enjoyed his vacation as well and suggests to top it all off......a hammock on the pool deck. (Then I don't think I'd be able to get him to leave...ha ha). Thanks again, we have truly enjoyed our vacation. Lisa and Kris.

Lisa Schwarzbaum Okay, I think we can agree on this: You tend to be actor-centric, and I tend to be director-centric. To me, presenting your inner essence is the mechanism of star quality; inhabiting someone else's inner essence is the mechanism of great acting. And to do the math further, great actors can be stars, but not all great stars can be good actors.
But let me steer back to the beginning of our conversation, and talk a little further about the chemistry of actors and directors. Aside from ''Lost in Translation'''s Best Actor nom for Bill Murray, the only other Oscar contender to produce players in the acting categories is ''Mystic River,'' which accounts for three -- Sean Penn, Tim Robbins, and Marcia Gay Harden. One could argue that this imbalance occurs because Penn, Robbins, and Harden stand out in a small ensemble, as opposed to the jam-packed roster of men in ''Master and Commander,'' orcs in ''The Return of the King.'' But Tobey Maguire, Jeff Bridges, Chris Cooper, and William H. Macy give good perfs in ''Seabiscuit,'' too -- a similarly sized principal cast -- and barely made an impression on me (or, apparently, Academy voters). Why? I'll tell you why: Because horse-fable director Gary Ross has no particular ear for the chamber music of master actors in ensemble, and Clint Eastwood does. Penn, Robbins, and Harden are superb actors, true, but the director brought out their best work.
Owen Gleiberman I'd argue that the trio of ''Mystic River'' acting nominations sprung, in classic old-school Oscar fashion, out of the general acclaim that the movie received. I think that Sean Penn, who anchors the film, really deserved his, but one of the many problems I have with ''Mystic River'' begins with Tim Robbins' performance. He does such an overstated job of acting that character as a timid, trembly, dysfunctional wreck of a man that he seemed, at times, to be playing the nerd psycho out of a slasher movie -- a neorealist Norman Bates. It was italicized ''victim'' acting, as showy, in its way, as the character was shy.
And while I'm on the subject of Oscar nominations that stick in my craw, let me be the bad-guy detractor and point out that Djimon Hounsou's nomination for ''In America'' is all too piously predictable. He's a forceful actor, all right, but he is being honored for playing a role that simply HAS to be retired: the black saint who is put on earth to save white people. Say what you will about its sensitivity as an Irish-family saga, but the racial politics of ''In America'' are mired -- depressingly -- in the 19th century.
LS As letters from our readers often begin, ''Were you seeing the same movie I was''? Part of what I love about ''Mystic River'' (and what, indeed, I love about ''The Lord of the Rings'') is that although each actor goes deep, he or she does not go broad in the role, and each works in service to the larger story as much as in service to the individual tragic character. For me, Robbins and Penn actually...reined their stuff in!
As for Hounsou, funny, I have no reaction whatsoever to his performance, maybe because I felt nothing whatsoever for the character: I didn't know who he was, what he was feeling, why he was feeling it, why he became friendly with his Irish-sprite neighbors, why he did anything at all. Really, I thought ''In America'' was a foreign-language film without subtitles, and I was convinced of none of it. It sounds, however, that you're dismissing the role rather than the acting. Which is, come to think of it, what I'd do with Patricia Clarkson in ''Pieces of April.'' Ah, there's a movie about which we can warmly agree, can't we? We didn't like it! We were unconvinced by its twinkly dramedy structure, its faux East Village vibe, its picturesque squalor and neurosis, its preciousness! Meanwhile, in a role I didn't believe, Clarkson was terrific. Why is Clarkson so frequently terrific?

Samurai Girl – The Book of the Sword: Book Review
This is a book that as written for teenagers, but I really like it. I found it in a bookstore, and bought it because of my keen interest in Japanese culture. I wondered if there were any more in the series, but could never find any further episodes. I forgot about it for a couple of years, and just recently was lucky enough to win the entire set of 6 books on ebay via bidding.
It's the story of a young girl – Heaven Kogo – who has everything she could possibly want in life. She's about to get married, and suddenly everything changes. She realises that her husband-to-be is vile; her brother is attacked by a ninja, and her father stands there and does nothing about it. As he lay dying the brother's final words to her were that she couldn't trust anyone in their family, and he gave her the name of a mysterious person to find. He didn't tell her where or why, but Heaven knew she was in danger and had to find this person. She flees to Los Angeles from Japan and the adventure begins.
This book – Samurai Girl, The Book of the Sword – by Carrie Asai – is a kind of "coming of age" story with as lot of martial arts thrown in. Heaven moves from a 19-year-old protected, wealthy, traditional Japanese girl to an empowered young woman. She grows strong physically and mentally. In the beginning she fights every step of the way! But she gets there in the end. However her troubles and challenges have just begun…thus the series of 6 novels.
This story is fast moving with multiple stories. It's not complicated, but it is engrossing. Several years after buying this book, I was still excited when I finally found the rest of the series. I don't want to spoil the plot, so I'll tell no more of the events of book 1. But I will review the others as I finish them (which may take a little time as I have other books on the go as well, both paper copies and on my kindle app).
