Red Bull found their groove in Free Practice Two at the Nurburgring on Friday as Sebastian Vettel claimed P1 with Mark Webber third fastest.
After Mercedes dominated the opening session with Nico Rosberg leading a 1-2 for the Brackley squad, Red Bull showed plenty of pace in the afternoon session.
Defending World Champion Vettel and Webber dominated at the top on the medium tyres early in the session and they were also fast on the soft rubber later on.
Webber was the first man to sample the softs 30 minutes into the session and he immediately went top with a 1:30.683, but he didn't stay there for long as his team-mate posted the benchmark of 1:30.416 to hit the front.
Rosberg got sandwiched between the two Red Bulls with a 1:30.651 while his team-mate Lewis Hamilton was down in P8 and 0.888 off the pace of Vettel. The two Mercs, along with just about all the other teams, focused mostly on long runs on the medium tyres later in the session.
Lotus, who are coming off a forgettable weekend at Silverstone, were fourth and fifth fastest with Romain Grosjean posting a 1:30.843 and his team-mate Kimi Raikkonen just five hundredths of a second behind him.
Another team who will be much happier after FP2 is Ferrari after Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa found themselves within one second of Vettel's best effort. Alonso was P5 with a 1:31.056 with his Brazilian team-mate hot on his heels with a 1:31.059. The duo completed 80 laps between them.
McLaren's Jenson Button and Paul di Resta of Force India completed the top 10, but they were more than one second off the pace of the fastest Red Bull.
Jules Bianchi, who sat out the morning session with Rodolfo Gonzalez doing the driving duties, completed only 10 laps as he was feeling under the weather and his Marussia team decided it is best if he rests ahead of qualifying on Saturday.
One person who will be breathing a sigh of relief is Paul Hembery from Pirelli as none of the drivers suffered any tyre problems. The Grand Prix Drivers' Assocation had threatend to boycott the German GP if there were any repeat of the tyre issues that took place at Silverstone.

Mantra in literally translation from sanskrit, the oldest language of ancient Vedas, means transcendental or antimaterial sound vibration which releases our mind.
What is the secret of mantras? Can we apply them to our everyday life?
Successful usage of mantras depends on few factors, one of them is knowing the nature of sound. Sound is, according to Vedas, basic media of knowledge transmission, because it gives us deeper and more plastic dimension of truth than one of picture, smell etc. In vedic evidence of universe creation, sound is the most subtle manifestation of matery, and from it all the other rough material elements are manifested, from ether to air, fire, wather and earth. Sound is carrier of organisation of material structure and is immanent in all material things. Interesting is that this is very close to some modern theories, for example in the field of kvantum phisics. Material forms and elements are, when analysed and separated, just some diferent sound ferquences that vibrate in front of our eyes like pictures on movie screen. All material world is just one vibrating reality with the sound as its base. Man, as spiritual being is caught in this vibrating stucture just like the moovie viewer who identifies himself with them and accepts those temporary and illusionary world pictures as truthful and constant.
Purpose of mantra
According to vedic philosophy, human being is spiritual, he is not this material body with whome he has identified himself. To realise his essence, self as a spiritual soul, one must transcend material wrappers which cover the soul as rough (evident physical body) and subtile body made from mind, inteligence and false ego. It is possible to accomplish desirable goal by careful chanting, articulateing and hearing mantras. Sound is the source of material objects and also the cause of our outgrow from atachments to them in the same time. Real aim of mantras is in their subtile, transcendental or antimaterial implementation.
Mantra has all vital energies of the universe and is unlimited with time and space, because it comes from apsolute sphere and has power to enlive our spiritual nature suppressed long ago.

This is the final post in this series. In part 3 and 3.5 of this series we went over the AddOnLoad function calls which really is the heart and soul of the Drag-n-Drop functionality. Today we'll be going over the QuerySaveDocument and PostSaveDocument events that fire when the Layout is saved.
Since QuerySaveDocument fires first we'll go over that. This code makes the Left & RightSidebarContains fields contain multiple values instead of a single comma delimited string. I got this code from here. I'm not quite sure I understand why we have to do this but it's the only way I could get the fields to be true multi-value fields.
* This section makes the fields for Left and Right SidebarContains fields to be
* multi-value
var val=getComponent("LeftSideBarContains").getValue();
var leftExploded=@Explode(val, ",");
currentDocument.replaceItemValue("LeftSideBarContains",@ReplaceSubstring(leftExploded, @List("[","]"), @List("","")));
var val=getComponent("RightSideBarContains").getValue();
var rightExploded=@Explode(val, ",");
currentDocument.replaceItemValue("RightSideBarContains",@ReplaceSubstring(rightExploded, @List("[","]"), @List("","")));
Now for the PostSaveDocument event. The main purpose here is to setup all the sidebar and page document fields to contain proper values, mainly the "Publish" (sidebar and page), "Container" and "SortOrder" (sidebar only). Currently we're really not using the "Container" field but this is being updated in the sidebar documents for future use. The container field just contains which sidebar area (right or left) this particular sidebar item is contained within. Also the purpose here is to enable the layoutbuilder to determine what was done if these documents are setup manually. We all know that people find ways to use our applications that we never thought of.
* This event sets up all the documents (sidebar and page) to contain the proper
* values based on what was dropped into the layout. This makes it possible
* to be able to configure the layout either via DnD or manually. This will
* override any manual settings made.
var val=getComponent("LeftSideBarContains").getValue();
var leftExploded=@Explode(val, ",");
var val=getComponent("RightSideBarContains").getValue();
var rightExploded=@Explode(val, ",");
var db:NotesDatabase = session.getCurrentDatabase();
var sidebarChanged = [];
var contentVal = getComponent("ContentContains").getValue();
* We need to setup the Sidebar document values based on what was dragged
* This sets the sidebar to published, defines which container the sidebar
* item is contained in and sets the sort order
for (i = 0;i < leftExploded.length;i++) {
var sidebarDoc:NotesDocument = db.getDocumentByUNID(leftExploded[i]);
for (i = 0;i < rightExploded.length;i++) {
var sidebarDoc:NotesDocument = db.getDocumentByUNID(rightExploded[i]);
* Now we need to loop through the other sidebar documents and turn
* them off if they're not used in the drag-n-drop layout
var sidebarView:NotesView = db.getView("SideBars");
for (i = 1;i <= sidebarView.getEntryCount();i++) {
var sidebarDoc:NotesDocument = sidebarView.getNthDocument(i);
* This prototype adds a findIndex method to a Javascript array which allows
* us to return the index where an item was found in the sidebarChanged
* array. If an item is in the sidebarChanged array then it should
* be published, so we set all the documents in the sidebar view
* to published to "No" if it's not in the sidebarChanged array
Array.prototype.findIndex = function(value){
var ctr = -1;
for (var j=0; j < this.length; j++) {
if (this[j] == value) {
return j;
return ctr;
var indexOfArray = sidebarChanged.findIndex(sidebarDoc.getUniversalID());
if (indexOfArray == -1) {
* Now check to see if we dragged a page onto the layout. If we did then the content
* field will contain a UNID, so we check that and if it does we set the "Publish" field
* to "Yes"
if (contentVal != null) {
if (contentVal != "Blog") {
if (contentVal != "All Pages") {
var AllDocsView:NotesView = db.getView("All Docs");
var pageDoc:NotesDocument = AllDocsView.getDocumentByKey(contentVal);
if (pageDoc.getItemValueString("Publish") != "Yes"){
First off here, we get the values of the Right & LeftSideBarContains fields and convert that value into an array. We also get the value of the ContentContains field. Since this field only contains a single value theres no need to convert it into an array. We then loop through the sidebar arrays and get the appropriate sidebar document by the UNID and update the "Publish" field to "Yes". We also add that UNID to a temporary array so that when we're setting the sidebar documents that weren't used to "No" we know what we've already enabled. Now I'm sure there is a better way of doing this but at the moment this was all I could think of. Looking back it would probably be better to loop through the sidebar documents and look for the UNID in either of the two arrays, if found then set "Publish" to Yes, else set it to No. Lastly if the ContentContains value is not one of our generic lables for content we get the page whose UNID is in that field and set the "Publish" field to "Yes".
And that's it. We now have a drag-n-drop layout builder that updates our backend documents based on what was dragged and where it was placed. None of the code here is all that complicated, it's just that there is a lot of it. Looking back on this, I saw a tutorial that Jeremy Hodge done on the Notes In Nine video cast about using Java to manipulate the values of fields as they're changed. I think this would have been a better way to manage all of this as it would be more transparent to the end user and would allow more options when it comes to updating the other backend documents. But below is a screen cast of the end result. I'll also include a sample database with all this so you can better decipher my ramblings, but it may be a day or so before the sample db is available.
Other Resources:
Here's that video. The errors that pop up when the layout type is changed, they're trying to update a table I moved so please disregard. Also, while making the screen cast, the avatars for what was being dragged didn't seem to function very well also, when the recording wasn't going on the avatars worked perfectly. To better see what's going on, watch the video full screen.
Update: Here is the demo database

Lesson Plan
Work Together
- Grades: PreK–K, 1–2
Woof! Woof!: The focus of this lesson is to reinforce the concept of working together through teamwork by encouraging participation in fun literacy and cognitive activities.
Teaching with Clifford's Big Idea: Work Together
When children learn how to successfully interact and share common goals with other children, they gain valuable social skills. Learning how to work with others comes most often from observation and personal experience.
Teach: Lost and Found!
Objective: The following activity nurtures essential:
- social and emotional skills
- language and literacy skills
Discuss the concept of working together and teamwork. Explain that when friends work together, good things can happen! Share feelings associated with losing a favorite toy. Encourage children to take turns relating their own experiences with losing something special. Show children the illustrations from Clifford's Busy Week by Norman Bridwell (Scholastic). Read and discuss. Check for comprehension by having children retell the story and identify characters. Finally, ask children to give this story a new title and talk about how Emily Elizabeth and Clifford worked as a team to find Clifford's lost toy, Squeaky.
Practice: Teamwork Train!
Objective: The following activity nurtures essential:
- fine motor skills
- cognitive skills
- creative expression through music skills
Help children recognize basic geometric shapes found in a train by showing them pictures or drawing a model. Provide children with shape patterns, pencil, scissors, colored paper, and glue. Use rectangles for boxcars, circles for wheels, and a cylinder for the smokestack. After shapes are traced and cut, help children cooperatively build a train along a classroom wall or chalkboard. Have children sign and date their boxcars. Substitute children's names as you sing and clap to the old railroad tune She'll (child's name) Be (will be) Coming Around the Mountain...when she/he comes!
Extend: Working together to gather and record information can be a fun and valuable learning experience!
- Help children create a "Lost and Found" journal by describing, drawing, and cataloging information about lost items in the classroom or school. Have children update the journal weekly and give a short report on new items lost and found.
- Explore trains of yesterday and today to help children discover the history and importance of one of America's oldest means of transportation.
Clifford's Library: These books support Clifford's Big Ideas and reinforce valuable early literacy skills:
- Clifford's Big Book of Stories by Norman Bridwell (Scholastic)
- Shapes and Sizes (Clifford the Big Red Dog Workbook) by Dina Anastasio (Scholastic)
- Part of Collection:
- Subjects:Conflict Resolution, Character Education, Cooperation and Teamwork, Arts and Crafts, Literacy, Geometry, Math through Literature, Early Social Skills, Motor Skills, Shapes and Sizes, Songs and Rhymes, Music, Kindness and Compassion, Manners and Conduct, Respect, Tolerance and Acceptance, Friends and Friendship, Understanding Self and Others, Shyness
- Skills:Listening Comprehension

Around the corner from the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, in L.A.'s Miracle Mile, local firm Lorcan O'Herlihy Architects (LOHA) outfitted a six-unit residential building with a recycled structural steel skin surrounded by muted stucco in what has quickly become a distinctive addition to the area.
But it's not just a matter of appearances: This permeable outer skin allows air to move between it and the enclosing walls, while protecting the units from sunny California's often intense heat gain. The skin also sets up a relationship between private spaces and the public street?openings in the skin reveal private porches overlooking the neighborhood. "The building becomes a veil," juror David Jameson said, "where it allows itself—like an instrument—to tune to a very dense, private component over the bedrooms and bathrooms. Then it starts to become more open as you get into the living areas."
The living units run the entire width of the building's footprint, partly in order to allow for cross-ventilation. LOHA pushed circulation to the exterior as a way to maximize the project's 10,500 square feet, and a roof deck provides even more usable outdoor space for the residents.
Though LOHA did create an aesthetically distinctive project, design, in this case, has less to do with just the look of things than with how the building performs—not only in terms of energy and spatial efficiency, but also as a human and urban experience. "There's this threshold zone in every unit that has a relationship to the street, which, in L.A., is a very interesting idea," juror Sheila Kennedy said. "There's a public life that's greater than what my bedroom or my kitchen looks like."

When it comes to the next Mayor's plans for education, the conversation has focused on universal pre-K getting more support and charter schools getting less, but it turns out that Bill de Blasio has laid out a lot more of his plans for city schools. NY1's Lindsey Christ filed the following report.
Everyone wants to know who the next schools chancellor will be, but the chancellor's job is to execute the mayor's vision, and that involves much less speculation.
Bill de Blasio's campaign website includes 3,500 words of education pledges and plans, most of which hasn't been discussed much.
"It's really a change of emphasis and tone," said Clara Hemphill of the Center for NYC Affairs at The New School. "The previous administration said there are two things we want you to do. We want you to graduate kids on time, and we want you to get the math and reading scores up. What de Blasio is saying, there are other things, which are important, too."
Things like health clinics and family support services, which de Blasio plans to incorporate into 100 "community schools" built over the next four years.
De Blasio says that he'll allow students to carry cellphones and require schools to serve free breakfast in the classrooms, something many teachers oppose.
When it comes to feasibility, though, some of his education plans raise red flags. Changing how students are admitted to Stuyvesant, Bronx Science and Brooklyn Tech, and raising taxes to pay for universal pre-K, both require new state laws. Other pledges set high goals, like "Ensure Every Child Receives Arts Education," which de Blasio defines as following state regulations. Currently, just half the elementary schools do that. Or "Ensure All Students Are Reading at Grade Level by Third Grade."
"One hundred percent of anything is not feasible, but it is feasible to put a real focus on reading in the elementary school grades," Hemphill said.
Though de Blasio has been critical of the mayor on education, there's a lot that may stay the same.
"I think we'll see a change of tone, I think we'll see a change of emphasis, but I don't think he'll blow up the system and start from scratch," Hemphill said.
De Blasio plans to keep the New York City Police Department in charge of school safety, which will disappoint civil libertarians, who want educators to manage all discipline. He'll also maintain control over whether schools share space, something he'd said he might give local parent councils more say over. And the soon-to-be mayor is clear: schools will continue to be held accountable for how their students perform.

The Flash
We've already seen flashes of Grant Gustin in Glee and Arrow, where we were introduced to Barry Allen/The Flash last season, so we're excited to see the guy get his very own show. He definitely has the chops to carry a series, and The CW has repeatedly proven that they can do superheroes well. This is a recipe for success!
MTV has been faring pretty well with their original series lately, so we're excited for their newest—a theme park dramedy! Remember that movie Adventureland? This show sounds quite a bit like that, except way soapier, because we're talking about MTV here.
Jane the Virgin
Don't worry, this show isn't going to try and convince us that immaculate conception is real. Instead, Jane is accidentally artificially inseminated! Way more plausible, right? But, if you can get past this somewhat outlandish premise—based on a telenovela—you might discover that this series is pretty charming.

44 Guidebook for Understanding Urban Goods Movement a conflict area between planners and industry. Their economic impact on the freight industry should be acknowledged and considered by local decisionmakers. Urban Infrastructure Design Depending on state law and the functional classification of a roadway, the authority and responsibility for the design of local roadways may rest with a local government. It is recog- nized that some state DOTs (West Virginia, Virginia, and a few others) have authority over local roadway design. Federal and most state roadway design regulations are intended to accommodate trucks. Unfortunately, in some cases older roadways and bridges and local road- ways do not meet these design standards (see Exhibit 5-4). Older urban intersections, narrow streets, and alleyways may restrict truck mobility causing trucks to hit poles or signs located on corners or to drive over sidewalks to make turns. In some urban areas, trucks entering a railyard, port, or other private-sector intermodal facility must travel through privately owned parking lots and local facilities over old urban roadways that are difficult to negotiate. Out- dated or insufficient infrastructure design can impact urban freight mobility and access to buildings and facilities and result in � Increased congestion: The additional time trucks may require negotiating turns, avoiding low bridges, and so on may result in congestion and backups on the roadways. Exhibit 5-4. Urban infrastructure design: inadequate curbside parking and inadequate turning radii at intersections. Source: Wilbur Smith Associates.

Tangents rated (very nearly) one of the best photography blogs!
Okay, I sound a little cheeky there with the title, but honestly, it really is an honour to have Tangents noticed and rated highly by other photographers. Especially when they run their own very visible and successful blogs, like Jamie's The Modern Tog. Lots of good business advice on her site. Check out the link for the other superb photography blogs.

Economist Arnold Kling thinks we may be heading toward a one-party state:
The importance of the rule of law is declining, and the importance of political connections to the elite is increasing. I think we will see this trend emerge much more strongly over the next decade, as it becomes clear that the Republican Party is not going to win another national election. Interest groups will lose hope in competitive elections, and instead they will focus on accommodating the Democrats, which in turn will consolidate the power of the ruling party.
At first I thought he might be overstating things, and then I read the following in the New York Times:
Business executives aligned with President Obama have formed a new coalition to support his agenda as Congress moves ahead with legislation on energy, health care, financial regulation and other hot-button issues.
The coalition, calling itself Business Forward, plans to announce its formation on Thursday . . .
The coalition, which plans to recruit small businesses as members, too, aims to provide more consistent support for the priorities of the president and the Democratic Congress.

Crime at Turtle Bay Resort
Posted by
Joe 222
NORTH SHORE OAHU, HAWAII -- I have stayed at Turtle Bay Resort and Hotel in Kahuku, North Shore Oahu, Hawaii. My room has been burglarized in the afternoon hours and my valuable possessions worth around $10,000.00 have been stolen. It was "clean entry - clean exit" type of situation. Rooms have electronic key locks. Maid and towel boy were the only two people in my room in my absence.
Hotel took no responsibility at all for the crime. I was unable to talk to anybody, including hotel manager and vice-manager. Everybody was "unavailable". Incompetent Head of Hotel security [snip] dismissed the crime that occurred under his supervision by stating that "...I misplaced my own possessions and now I am trying to blame it on his Hotel..." In fact, he never visited scene of the crime nor did he process the crime scene just like any other Law Enforcement Officer would. He submitted same lies to the Honolulu Police Department and to the Hotel's insurance Agent. As result, nobody takes my claim seriously. Hotel's Insurance agent told me that "...you should not bring so much stuff with you to the Hotel..."
Now, Nobody will do ANYTHING about my case. My stuff is gone and that is it. When leaving Turtle Bay Resort there was a violent crime committed against a woman attended by two police squad cars and 3 officers. After I posted my complaint on the Net I am receiving emails from people who were victims of crime at Turtle Bay Resort and Hotel, too.
I have filed BBB claim in Hawaii. The claim requires response from the Hotel. Hotel never responded. So much for "professionalism" of Hotel's management...
Learn from negative experiences of other victims of crime. If I were you I would highly reconsider against staying at Turtle Bay Resort & Hotel - the place, that subjects its guests to serious crimes. Don't be a fool. Don't allow yourself to be treated like in a Third World country. If Turtle Bay Resort & Hotel cannot provide you and your family with secure place of stay - than they should not be awarded with your business !!

Soaring Consumer on 03/11/2009:
If they refused to provide the police with security footage or investigate the theft, then they are liable, especially since their staff's key cards were used to break into the room.
I suggest that you sue them in large claims court.
Anonymous on 03/11/2009:
Did you call the police?
Anonymous on 03/11/2009:
If you have not already done so, file a request for 'activity summaries' with the police agencies having jurisdiction at this hotel. Any department larger than Mayberry's will have # of calls and type of calls in computerized records for addresses they serve. Ask for the same records for another hotel property nearby. It may be just the evidence you need to support a claim that the hotel is not diligent in protecting its guests or their property.
MRM on 03/11/2009:
Not to side with the hotel, but you should not have brought all those valuables with you while traveling and staying in a hotel.
SLR+ on 03/11/2009:
Was there not a safe in the room?
Suusan B. on 03/11/2009:
Every hotel I have ever stayed at - - no exceptions - - have posted signs at check-in and in the guest rooms (usually behind the entrace door) that they are not responsible for valuables left in the room.
goduke on 03/11/2009:
Hawaii has a $500 limit under the innkeeper liability statute. That's about all your going to get.
MRM on 03/11/2009:
Pardon my curiousity, but I would like to know what were those expensive belongings are?
Anonymous on 03/11/2009:
All due respect, but several courts have said that posted signs don't grant absolute immunity from liability. While innkeeper liability limits exist, they are 'general' in nature. As such, liability statutory limits do not cover willful or knowingly negligent acts by the innkeeper or their staff. Otherwise, hotels could conspire with housekeepers to steal $1000 worth of items and safely limit their liability to $500. The OP must prove the loss could have been prevented if the hotel exercised 'due care' consistent with standards for the hotel industry.
Ben There on 03/11/2009:
Ghost makes a great point that there is more to immunity from liability than having a sign in a room. However, there is the huge problem you have of proving that you actually had 10K worth of something in your room. Granted you might have a receipt for a Rolex or something like that, but as you did not declare it to the hotel and keep it in the hotel's safe you will have to perform a miracle in court to prove it was in the room.
Joe 222 on 03/11/2009:
Thank you for all those comments. You ask lots of questions. I will try to go down the list to explain them, to answer them, as well as submit more details about the burglary....
Soaring Consumer: Hotel wanted the Hotel's security to investigate the burglary. I refused their offer and requested that they call Police. They did comply and called Police. However, hotel security was somewhat involved.
Little Yaya: Yes, I filed Police report with Honolulu Police Department. I have a case number for the burglary.
JustCuz: Police was called and Police report was filed. Hotel sent in a low ranked security guard to be present with HPD officer visiting in my room. No finger prints or pictures were taken. Next day, Hotel security person downloaded information from the elec. door lock from our door. They refused to inform me about the entries to my room during my absence. Also, immediately after the burglary was discovered, I asked Hotel Security to contact the Maid and the Towel boy. Hotel Security refused, saying they have their "...own methods of investigation..." and, besides, maid is a long time employee and they trust her. Hotel will always stay on her side.
I am posting my case in a bridged version. I am sorry you find my case hard to believe. My experience obviously differs from yours.
That said: you are dead wrong. I didn't just walk away from $10k loss. I did all I could before I had to depart the Island for mainland as my allotted time was nearing its end. My hotel expired in two days, my car rental was ending in two days and also my return plane ticket dictated my return to the mainland.
I printed 50 flyers and posted them on the North Shore Oahu, from Turtle
Bay Resort (east end) all the way to Waimea/Haleiwa (west end). These flyers were also posted in âFood-Landâ the only supermarket on Kamehameha Road, in Tedâs Bakery, a famous hang-out place for locals - and Chevron gas station, the only 24 hour gas station on North Shore.
My situation could be compared to an episode of Twilight Zone. Hotel completely ignored me. None of the employees knew about it. Head of Hotel Security, Mr.Dongher never came to the crime scene to investigate. I accidentally bumped into him at 4AM in the lobby of the Hotel when Police was investigating a violent attack against a woman. I approached him with my case. He just said "...it never happens at this Hotel...All points towards you...you misplaced your equipment and now you want to blame Hotel for it...". End of discussion. I asked him if he can beef up security on our floor. He refused. In fact, he said: "...Turtle Bay Hotel CANNOT and WILL NOT guarantee your security while at the Hotel..."
I tried to contact our maid. Unfortunately, she didnât show up for work the next day, and until we departed the Island.
I called hotel manager Mr.Boyle and the vice-manager Mr. Cross 2 times each. I left messages. No answers. I sent them registered emails - the failed to certify their reception. I send them registered letters / return receipt required. Mr. Cross signed for the letter but never responded. Mr. Boyle refused to accept my letter which was subsequently returned to me as "undeliverable". I filed BBB Hawaii complaint - to which Hotel failed to respond. Their response time was extended to March 9, 2009 and they failed to respond again. I filed BBB Houston complaint (Hotel is managed by Benchmark Hospitality International, based in Houston), but the complaint was rejected based on the fact that this case requires an attorney.
I filed missing equipment report with Nikon USA . Should anybody approach Nikon to calibrate, repair, or upgrade any of the stolen equipment, it will be confiscated and Police notified.
I approached retired judge in California to advised me as to how to proceed in this case. He basically told me: it is You against the Hotel. Unless you can prove that "this person" committed the crime, you have little chance of succeeding. You will probably have to take a loss. Tell all your friends about this, post your case on the WEB for others to see, and never patronize this Hotel again.
It is extremely difficult to pursue this case from 3,500 miles away, especially, when you get no communication from anybody on the other side. Hotel management is non responsive in any way, shape of form. If it was in my place of residence, I would take them to court right away. But I cannot afford to fly to Hawaii every time court needs me of to hire attorney in Hawaii. I would probably double my losses.
I phoned my detective couple of times. He tells me that there is really nothing they can do. They have more serious cases than mine. Besides, chances for recovery of my stolen possessions is either slim, or none.
Hotel insurance agent called me, but his knowledge of the crime was based on misleading version of Mr.Dongher, the Head of Hotel's security, who was attempting to discredit me from the very beginning. Besides, maximum pay out (inkeeppers liability law) would be only $500.00.
SLR: yes, there was a small safe in the room. However, the stolen equipment would not fit that safe, anyway...
Suuusan B: yea, there is such a sign. (I didn't notice one in this instance - but I know from my extensive travels that every Hotel has one. I do not deny its presence there..). However, it is not an invitation for people who work there to steal.
GoDuke: You are correct. Maximum "inkeeppers" liability is only $500.00. Question: have you ever seen a tourist, going to Hawaii, who has less than $500.00 in his luggage ? My empty luggage costs $500.00. Please, remember that Turtle Bay Resort and Hotel is not a cheap place at all: room begin at $330.00 and go up to $2.000.00 a night. Therefore, people who visit this Hotel do not exactly travel on shoe string budged. Please be advised that Hotel of his caliber (800 rooms), like Turtle Bay Resort wants us believe it is, has NO security cameras on individual floors. There is only camera is in the reception recording visitors at check-in and check-outs. Not every visitor knows about it - but employees are fully aware of this fact. Moreover, receptionists were never notified about the burglary so they can watch (suspicious) people walking through the lobby with camera equipment resembling mine. In any case, Security in this kind of Hotels is not only implied but is required.
MRM: I am a photographer. I follow and shoot ASP World Cup of Surfing. The stolen equipment was a high end professional camera ( $5K ), high end professional telephoto lens ( $5K ) and list of small accessories ( about $900.00 ). All mounted together.
There were other expensive items in the room that were left untouched by the thief. For example: 2 high end Apple laptops, score of other high end lenses, other small cameras + many other personal possessions including credit cards and money...
Ghost of Doc J: Very good comment. This was brought up several times before, too.
I feel it is my duty, as a victim of crime, to share my experience with others, so people like You, and You, and You - are aware of the crime that takes place at Turtle Bay Resort and Hotel. I have never stopped pursuing this case. Hotels that lure in visitors from miles away and then leave them unprotected exposing them to serious crimes - should not be patronized.
And on personal note: I am a business owner myself. If any of my employees treats my customers in time of crises the way Mr.Dongher, the Head of Security for Turtle Bay Resort treated me - than he would be looking for new employment as we speak !
Anonymous on 03/12/2009:
Joe222, thank you for taking the time to explain more of the details. It sounds like you have definitely done your due diligence in this case. I hope you'll come back and let us know if this ever gets resolved. Good luck!
Anonymous on 03/12/2009:
Keep at them, Joe222. I think you accomplished a lot in your rebuttal of the site's naysayers who chided you for taking 'too much' in the way of valuables on your trip (or doubted it was possible). Such may be true for those accustomed to vacations in Gary, Indiana or when staying in a Super 8, but it does not represent reality for everyone. Good luck, my friend!
Joe 222 on 04/29/2009:
MRM: I am a photographer. The stolen properties were: one of my high-end Nikon cameras, high-end Nikon telephoto lens, teleconveter, 16 gb extreme memory card and few other accessories - all mounted together.
Update: In a boldest move of them all, Mr. Dongher, the Head of Security for Turtle Bay Resort submitted letter to BBB saying that my pure intentions are to "defame" the Resort. He also appears to operate under impression that my pure intentions are to elicit money from the Resort - which is very wrong. He proceeds with requesting BBB to "close" this case and not to investigate any further. Fortunately, Mr.Dongher is not in a position to decide whether the Resort, or he, should be investigated or not.
On April 14, 2009, I received phone call from Mr. Boyle, the manager for Turtle Bay Resort, offering me $500.00 to go away. I refused his "offer". This case is not about money. This case is about those who broke the Law and those cowards who are covering up for them. My pure intentions pursuing this case are to bring those responsible for the burglary to justice. Until they are prosecuted - no tourist will be save at Turtle Bay Resort.
I am sending letter to DA / Hawaii and to Lt.Governor. I will keep you posted as this case develops.
Thank you all for you time to read this post.

BILLINGS- A U.S. Marine Lcpl. Chris Bogner, a Miles City native, has been transferred to a new hospital as he continues to recover from injuries sustained in an explosion last week in Afghanistan.
The 22-years-old was critically injured by an IED (improvised explosive device) on Wednesday, July 11th.
Bogner sustained shrapnel injuries which will require surgery, two collapsed lungs and swelling of the brain.
Following the explosion, he was taken to Germany where his parents Keith and Connie Bogner, also of Miles City, were flown to be near to their son in Munich.
Q2 reached out to the U.S. Marine Corps for comment, but the service branch does not comment on injured servicemen and women.
However, a Facebook page has been set up which Bogner's parents use to keep family, friends and well wishers up to date on Bogner's condition.
According to that page, there have been several positive signs of recovery.
On Tuesday night, doctors removed a machine helping Bogner to breathe.
The following is Keith Bogner's update on Lcpl. Bogner's status on Wednesday:
UPDATE! 7/18 7:20 pm here
Again, thank you everyone who is giving Chris such support and also those who are doing so much for us as a family, I can't even say what it means to us.
Last night they reduced Chris sedetive and we were able to see Chris move his legs and squeeze his moms hand, that was very moving and emotional but they decided it was too stressfull on his blood preasure so the doctors put him back on the original dose. He remained stable throughout the night and was able to make the flight to Landstuhl today arriving at 5:00 pm. We made the drive (3 1/2 hrs) and arrived here earlier in the day to get settled in the Fisher House that we will stay in until moving him on to the states. We should know more about a timeline by the end of the day tommorow while the staff here reacceses his condition. They reduced sedation a short while ago and he started to regain consciousness before they increased it again. Probably the best but hardest part of the day since he showed signs of discomfort and pain, but also signs that all his limbs are working. Praise be to God Almighty!
Once doctors in Germany are satisfied with Bogner's progress, he will be flown to Walter Reed Memorial Hospital in Maryland.

Stupak and Lessons Learned: Democrats Lie. Chronically
Image courtesy of cafepress.com
The second lesson that should be learned is that there is no such thing as a Pro-Life Democrat. Partisanship and agendas over-ride all. Thus, it should come as no surprise that Bart Stupak sold out for an Executive Order;: a piece of paper that holds absolutely no merit, particularly when coming from arguably the most pro-abortion President that we've ever had.
It's no surprise because Bart Stupak is Pro-Life only if you consider Pro-Life to mean Pro-Political Life, where one does whatever is politically expedient. Bart Stupak's "hold-out" was pure kabuki theater. He's not Pro-Life. He's not a "Conservative Democrat". There is no such thing. They are ideologically partisan to their very core. Everything is agenda driven and they will even stoop to using the unborn as an agenda and to their advantage, as they have for years.
And then throw them under the figurative bus when they've served their political purpose.
Bart Stupak had no intention of voting No on the socialized medicine disguised as health care "reform" bill. Here he is, caught on tape, admitting that federal funding of abortion is actually no big whoop to him in the grand scheme (operative word) of things:
"If everything I want [is] in the final bill, I like everything in the bill except you have public funding for abortion, and we had a chance to run our amendment and we lost. OK, I voted my conscience, stayed true to my principles, stayed true to the beliefs of this district, could I vote for healthcare? Yes I still could."
Pro HIS political life. That's it. It's hard to "stay true to principles", Stupak, when you have none.
I know this isn't really shocking to many of us.: I used Stupak: to make a point last week, but I didn't trust him as far as I can spit. And since I'm a lady, that isn't very far at all. But, it may be shocking to some and that must change. People want to believe the best in others, but in these cases and in these times, there is real danger in blissful ignorance.
Learn that lesson, America. Starting with Stupak.

Hubbardton Forge - The Modern American Blacksmiths.
Hubbardton Forge, American manufacturer of hand forged iron lighting fixtures, first fired up the Forge in a drafty old barn in the town of Hubbardton in 1974. The Vermont based company scavenged through New England gathering rusting anvils, trip hammers, swage blocks and other discarded tools of the trade in order to revive the nearly forgotten craft of hand-forging raw metal into functional art. Today, they have established themselves as a company whose products are recognizable for their quality, timelessness, and functionality.
Hubbardton Forge's designs are classic, elegant, and original. Form and function are inseparable in every piece. From heavier gauge metals, custom turnings and superior internal components, to environmentally sound powder coated finishes, Hubbardton Forge strives to create structural integrity ... products that will endure.
All Hubbardton Forge products include a lifetime warranty. See details.

Also called a decision, one of the three basic logic structures in computer programming. The other two logic structures are sequence and loop.
In a selection structure, a question is asked, and depending on the answer, the program takes one of two courses of action, after which the program moves on to the next event.
This structure is sometimes referred to as an if-then-else because it directs the program to perform in this way: If Condition A is True then perform Action X elseperform Action Y.
All logic problems in programming can be solved by forming algorithms using only the three logic structures, and they can be combined in an infinite number of ways. The more complex the computing need, the more complex the combination of structures.

On continued reflections about the Sci-Fi line
9 Years, 3 Months ago
I know there's a lot of discussion about why the SF line isn't doing better, and that most people probably aren't going to change their opinions based on one bit of data or another.
Still, just to add to the pile, here's something interesting: I've been posting at the official Star Wars miniatures forum, and I've posted a few links to these pages, to show some of the conversions I've been posting lately. I hoped it would kill two birds with one stone: allow me to show off my conversions to the SW gaming community, and show off Dwarven Forge to the SW gaming community.
Well, since I did, I'd say no fewer than three or four people have asked about the "stuff in the background" of my pics. Each time a discussion has followed.
So -- what's the point of all this? -- it just makes me realize how many people out there, people playing the SW minis game, just don't know about Dwarven Forge's Sci-Fi line.
I know there can be debate about which games are the biggest games, but certainly SWM is up there, if it isn't the biggest, or even in the top 5. I know it's the only Sci-fi minis game I've seen sold at Barnes and Noble, and the only SF minis game I've seen sold at places like Suncoast and similar specialty stores. That means that, even if SWM is not the biggest in terms of numbers of players or revenue generation, it is certainly one of the most high-profile SF games out there.
So we've got a high-profile game, attracting all sorts of newbies, and these kids haven't heard of DF. I think, if Stefan et al want to look into the continued viability of the SF line, certainly figuring out a way to get the name out there and the product out there might be something to consider.
For one thing -- hardcore gamers into hardcore games tend to be rather dogmatic at times. They certainly have intense preferences and opinions they are rather unwilling to relinquish. I know I've met zealous fans of Hirst Arts before, for example. Some of those gamers just might not consider DF, they might have written it off. The newbies, though -- they haven't made up their minds yet. If they can be reached, there's a whole market of new gamers out there who haven't had time yet to decide that they will be utterly loyal to company X and would never even consider buying anything from company Y.

I must have missed this the first time it came around, not supprissed i was rather busy arounf the 30th.
As to DF and SW, yeah I decided a ways back to put into my Sig over on the Wizards Boards the link to the thread where i was showing the pictures for my d20 RPG using DF, i have gotten a number of requests as well in PM's as to what that stuff is. I think we are slowly generating intrest.
I know a guy who just moved to the Area and is interested in playing in the Monthly skirmish league has talked about DF and would LOVE to play a game on it. May have to grab a few sets from where they are stored and lug them to my FLGS one day to let him try them out, maybe i can get him to buy a few...

On continued reflections about the Sci-Fi line
9 Years, 3 Months ago
L is right; a lot of SF gamers do not even know about DF SF MM.
DF for seven years did nothing but fantasy terrain with a little bit of Cavern MM mixed in.
At the time if SF folks wanted easy cavern terrain, they usually bought Geo-Hex's CavernScape.
Now though with Geo-Hex out of the way and the WEB being used far more, we can really introduce to whole untapped group of SF gamers the DF SF MM line.
The problem with that is that consistent complaint I keep running into that gets introduced with the comment/question of, "Wow! That terrain looks really cool and useful. Now, please show me the computers/etc.(SF furnishings) that go with it."
When I cannot do that because they do not exist, enthusiasm starts to cool rapidly.
Let's get the SF furnishings going, quality ones that can be used in SW and other SF games, and then we can get DF SF MM really rolling!
As far as Hirst Arts and other fanatics not switching over to DF SF MM, let us just avoid the problem - flank them!
When you speak to people like that, talk about the great SF interior playing strengths that DF SF MM has.
Almost all of Hirst Arts stuff that is SF in genre is just like most other SF terrain companies out there - SF exterior fights.
Simply emphasize the really cool interior SF fighting capacities of the DF SF MM.
That way you can get these fanatics to add on to their terrain collection so that they can fight in a different environment.
Remember, when you talk to these folks, do not try to get them to give up their "old" stuff; you will fail with that tack.
Simply talk them into adding to their terrain collection.
That will work for the beginning, and then the DF SF MM will convince them to give up the old stuff through its quality that cannot truly be experienced through a sales pitch.
I must have strange B&Ns, Suncoasts and so forth in this area L - they do the SW SF mini stuff, but they are also heavily into MechWarriorDA & HeroClix SF minis as well.
As for your efforts GS, good job!
A snowball starts small at the top of the hill.
How about if all of the SF gamers here help out with it?
That way we can have a snowboulder fairly quickly and far before we get to the bottom of the hill!
Maybe we can even generate a barrage of snowboulders that way, eh?

Home treatment may be all that is needed to treat diarrhea caused by cancer or the side effects of chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Be sure to follow any instructions and take any medicines your doctor has given you to treat diarrhea. Check with your doctor before using any nonprescription medicines for your diarrhea.
If one or more of the following symptoms occur during home treatment, contact your doctor:
When you have diarrhea, make sure to wipe gently after using the bathroom. Using moist wipes or water squirted from a spray bottle may also help. Talk to your doctor if you have soreness, bleeding, or hemorrhoids.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that you wear disposable gloves when cleaning up diarrhea or other body fluids. You may wear reusable rubber gloves if you wash them after each use. If you don't have gloves, be sure to wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water when you are finished.
For steps on how to clean up diarrhea from skin, soiled linens, or hard surfaces, see Cleaning Up Diarrhea.

Final Thoughts
In the end I am left with a better product than the original in almost every way. While the 212 Plus doesn't have the "coolness factor" of a twin tower design, it is still a formidable competitor to the market. The results we got were pretty average, but the fan Cooler Master chose tries to find a nice balance of cooling power without making your ears bleed doing so. For those who aren't bothered by jet engine like noise a few feet away, by all means get this and strap a couple 100+ CFM Delta's to it.
Improvements were made to not only the fin design and the swap of the fan, I really need to address the hardware. Ever since I have been doing reviews I have seen the same old hardware on almost everything Cooler Master offers. I for one am glad to see this new style of mounting. While you still have to have access to the rear of the board to set the back plate to the risers, at this time you can install the board without the cooler in place yet. Once everything is back in the case and you are ready, the new top piece allows for just this, screwing into the top of the risers which you had already put in place. Removal for maintenance is also eased due to the design change. I for one would be more likely to clean it with as easy as it is to remove versus the older version.
Any way I look at the Hyper 212 Plus, I come up with nothing but good things to say. The redesign is a bit on the plain side, but the cooler shows real potential. For those willing to strap a couple of fans this cooler can start to pull into the premium cooler performance levels. While I won't say it's going to hit a specific temperature, with a 58 degree load temperature as the cooler is shipped, dual fans can drop results a few more degrees. Most e-tailers are under the $30 USD mark, plus shipping. Even if you have to add a couple $10 fans in the mix, you could get near premium cooler performance for near $30 less than say a TRUE or a Thor Hammer - both prices based on the assumption you are buying a fan to go along with it.
So if flash isn't your thing and you are more driven by results and potential, the Hyper 212 Plus may just be the cooler for you.

DARPA is Staging a UAV Crowd-Sourcing Contest
The Pentagon wants tiny UAVs for its soldiers to carry into combat zones, and it wants you to design them. With the UAVForge program, DARPA is crowd-sourcing drone design to people around the world.
By Sharon Weinberger
UAVForge Challenge blends two things that DARPA has championed in recent years. The first is the use of open competitions, like the Grand Challengea robot race through the desert to prove the feasibility of unmanned automobiles. The second is DARPA's increasing reliance on the power of social networks. Last year, the agency put on quirky scavenger hunt called the Network Challenge, in which DARPA placed red balloons around the country and challenged participants to form teams and use the power of social networking to track down every one.

The art of football | Readings for 14 November 2006
Posted By John Turnbull On 13 November 2006 @ 23:24 In England,Regions | 1 Comment
L. S. Lowry's Going to the Match, a depiction of crowds outside Burnden Park in Bolton, won a 1953 FA-sponsored competition, "Football and the Fine Arts." The Professional Footballers' Association purchased the painting in 1999 for £1.9 million.
Manchester, England | The winners of "One Love: The Football Art Prize [1]" competition, organized by the Lowry gallery, will be announced Nov 30. Culture writer Lynn Barber seems impressed and mentions a seven-foot-high painting of a Subbuteo man. (Observer, 12 Nov 06 [2])
Scotland | Nicol heads British influence on MLS [7]
New England coach Steve Nicol, formerly of Liverpool, now a three-time loser of MLS Cup, favors rationality on the touchline. "Scots are pretty logical. We believe in right and wrong with no grey areas. That's huge in soccer." (Independent, 11 Nov 06)
Mexico | Female golfer is new hero in soccer-mad country [11]
Lorena Ochoa is the LPGA player of the year, creating an awkward comparison for national soccer players. "[They are] the idols of millions of Mexicans, who have never lifted the World Cup or come anywhere near," says Armando Sosa. (Reuters, 13 Nov 06)

Ironic since in the recent New York Sun, Paul Gardner lashed out at the [15]. Then again, Garder is American soccer punditocracy's leading Anglophobe and Latinophile.
To the point where he assumes New England forward José Manuel Abundis is a creative player simply because José and Manuel are part of his name.
I love New England, but if Nicol were the smartest coach in MLS, I wish his team (my team) would have found a way to score more than a grand total of zero goals in regulation in three Cup finals.
Maybe he'll be smart enough to figure out that boring, predictable soccer hasn't won him any Cup finals (really, it's only worked once in 11 Cup finals for anyone) so maybe the Revs should try something else.

The Army's developing its own, cheaper 3D printers
Perhaps inspired by the possibility of endless bacon (because who wouldn't be?), the United States Army is hard at work developing their own brand of 3D printer. Claiming the high price tags of commercial ones, the army has thus far produced much cheaper versions.
Early versions cost about $695. Compare that to the $3,000 for your everyday 3D printer. These versions are being developed at the Future Warfare center at the US Army's Space and Missile Defense Command (SMDC), which is stationed in Alabama.
The printer has some pretty obvious high-impact possibilities for the army, including the ability to continuously supply front lines as needed.
Case in point: "The ability to replicate parts quickly and cheaply is a huge benefit to the warfighter," said D Shannon Berry, an operations research analyst at the Future Warfare office. "Instead of needing a massive manufacturing logistics chain, a device that generates replacement parts is now small and light enough to be easily carried in a backpack or on a truck."
