Dear Irish Couple, you are most welcome. i hope to enjoy your trip in Egypt so much, if you need any advise or help, u can contact me anytime. All the best for u.
May 2011
sorry to bother you again antoinette but could you update us on safety etc, since death of osama bin laden, we have no affiliation to usa but we are non the less westerners, we know in our hearts that egypt is safe but just your opinion would be greatly appreciated on the situation. my intention since booking this holiday is to bring our irish national flag and put it in tahirr square and maybe more european tourists will visit, i also suggest to help with tourism that other nations would put their flag up as well to let the world know we admire and respect your nation, thanks from IRISH COUPLE.
Antoinette Mony
May 2011
Dear Irish couple, I don't think the death of Ben Laden will affect on Egypt at all because all the Egyptians know well he was terrorist and he must be killed. also, The Armed Forces besides the Police surround Egypt with safety especially after the Revolution. Really Egypt is so safe now and welcome every day a lot of Tourists. in addition, as a travel agent, we highly promote Egypt more than before to announce to Everyone like to visit Egypt, not to be anxious. Egypt is safe and stable. of course, you can put your flag in Tahrir Square, that will encourage others to come and visit Egypt.
May 2011
hello, i am thinking of going away to Egypt at the beginning of July with my boyfriend. We found such a good deal for all inclusive in Taba so really want to go but we are a bit on edge about whether it will be safe or not, would you be able to let me know if you think Taba is safe to travel to?? thanks
May 2011
Hello. Everyone's replies and concerns are same as mine. Im booked to leave to Cairo, Egypt May 30th from South Korea with a Tour group. My main concerns have been mainly surrounding Egypt, and we will be moving over to Jerusalem, Israel after a few days in Cairo. But that is another concern traveling around the West Bank. It seems that every travel agency in Egypt claims that it is very safe to come and visit that everything has gone back to normal, and even the travel agencies in Korea are saying it's safe to go and visit. However I ask the travel agencies in the U.S. and they are advising to not travel there if its not needed. I'm only assuming it has to do with Bin Laden's death and the threat against our national safety as a whole. No matter what the situation, I will be traveling with my family from May 30th - June 8th and am greatly worried about all the possible demonstrations and public hearings that could go on unannounced while we're traveling. Also, I've been reading during my research on the safety of traveling there that you can't use your cell phones there? And very hard to get internet connection. And that peoples' electronic items and gadgets were compenscated at the airports and security check-ins and haven't been returned or returned damaged. Anybody have any feedback on these subjects? Thank you for reading.
May 2011
irish couple here again, dreadful news that ten or more egyptians killed yesterday and many injured, my sympathy for their sorrows, i am now really concerned but am still willing to go ahead with our trip unless our tour operator cancels, i and im sure many other tourists would dearly appreciate more news on situation there, thanks antoinette you are so good to reply hope you and your loved ones safe.
May 2011
Hi! I've read the news and recently there's religious clash in cairo, egypt. I will be gg to egypt in early june till mid june. 2 weeks for vacation. so, pls advise if i shld postpone my trip to egypt. greatly appreciates your honest reply.
May 2011
we are also in egypt cairo aswan luxor etc in early june to mid june and are not too concerned about the safety aspects of the trip all seem calm and tourist police plentiful so we are all excited about our trip im more concerned now about the esna loch being closed affecting our nile cruise itenary from aswan to luxor and meaning many more hours of bus travel rather than cruising, we heard the there are now two loch and when one is closed the other is open, we hope this is true please advise if anyone knows, thank you, and by the way enjoy egypt its just a wonderful place safe trip and post on return god bless, mary

Hello everyone,
I am planning a trip to Egypt with On the Go tours and am due to arrive in Cairo on the 1st August 2011. I know a lot can change between now and then, but was just wondering if anyone has travelled to Egypt recently and whether it was safe? Particularly if it will be safe for two young australian girls?
also do you have any tips for travelling to egypt?
thanks for your assistance.
Antoinette Mony
May 2011
hello jess, I live in Egypt so i can benefit u well about the safety in Egypt especially for tourists. Egypt is safe and stable now. only some clashes happened in Egypt after the revolution but this is normal. but every day, safety improves than before.
As for tourists, don't worry at all because The tourism Police put excessive security instructions to keep all the places of interest safe and also protect all the tourists.
Yes, We make trips in Egypt, just advise me the arrival & departure dates, hotel category.
June 2011
Hello, I have a trip planned in early October, this has been a life time dream for a number of years. Please can you keep me updated on the safety in Egypt.

I understand that this is a little while, but I have to make flight arrangements at the end of this month. please keep me posted, so I can determine what steps to take.
Thanks so much for you reply.
June 2011
Hello, I am leaving for Sharm El Sheikh on June 14th 2011 w/my family including 21month-old daughter. Can someone please let me know if it's safe there?
Thx so much,
June 2011
Hi we are going to Sharm on the 15th June this will be our 15th time to the same Hotel. We have always been treated very very good and are looking forword to seeing all our friends. The Egypt people are warm and frendley. I am 60 in November and a week later it will be our 25th wedding Aniversary, we will be there with friends and family. Any one going to Egypt dont worry just enjoy the sun and people and remember your not in Briton.
June 2011
yes Maggie ... its safe
June 2011
Hi Guys! I just safely returned from my visit to Egypt, Jordan, and Israel between may 29th to June 9th. Egypt was quite for the most part but our trip was changed due to some issues in Luxor. Our Nile cruise was cancelled, So we ended up going to Alexandria instead. We did spend awful a lot of time, on our tour bus..it was mainly our place of rest other than staying at the hotels. But they did make it up to us by letting us have lunch on the nile river on a small boat. I dont know about the other tour groups going or people going by themselves, but my tour group had things down pretty well and had connections in all the places that weve visited and gone to. Alexandria was a cute city, was only there two days..they didnt really let us roam around too much in Egypt to be honest and didnt let us off the bus for any reason except for at our visiting sites and hotels. Cairo was a busy city, lots of people, but they were friendly. kids would wave to you on the bus and smile. Just be aware, there are serious amounts of people waiting for you to get off the bus or cars to get in your face and sell you things for a dollar. If they claim its real papyrus, its not. if it was real, itd be around a $100. Never drink water from the faucet or the fountains..always buy water bottles..they have it cheap where youll be visiting, usually two bottles for a $1. If you DO buy souveniers or items from the people, especially the kids by the bay, make sure you have exact change or get the item in your hand before handing over the money..often times the kids will run off after u hand them a dollar or not give u change back..this situation is also the same for Jordan and Israel. I was lucky enough to have a local guide traveling with me at each country. Never the less, my trip was safe and amazing, it was just really hard to deal with the hot weather (135 degrees) and going in and out of border points..going through egypt to israel, to israel to jordan, and jordan back to israel..to even leaving israel were all such a hastle..they are SOOOOOOO complicated with their procedures for arriving and departing. So be careful and always pack liquids and square looking items on top of the luggage, itll make the check-in process a WHOLE LOT FASTER! make sure you have PLENTY of dollar bills..i brought hundred dollars in dollar bills..and ended up needing more. Dollar bill will be your bestfriend..and always be smart and stay in your hotels at night unless you have a night-time tour guide for some places. Never travel alone and staying with a large group is the safest way to travel around the middle-east. Hope this post helped..and if you have anymore questions ill be happy to answer the best I can!
June 2011
Advice for young girls traveling, or females traveling alone to the middle east, if any of you guys are planning on climbing Mt. Sinai like my tour group did, NEVER EVER, for any reason ride the camel up. Unless you have a group of people with you, including a MALE, do NOT, i repeat, ride the camel up. I climbed the whole mt.sinai with my dad and was very glad to not have ridden the camel up to the camel transit. A few females from my tour group that rode the camel half way up because they couldn't climb anymore, almost got kidnapped and robbed, they took them away from us right away (We went up at 2am..like most usual people do) in pitch dark, they couldn't see anything and they said they stopped the camel when they couldn't see anybody around them anymore and it was completely quite, tried to pull them off the camel touching their legs, grabbing their purses, and all they did was scream for 30 minutes and they wouldn't stop,..but another group of people happen to pass by after awhile, so they cried got off and walked up with the other tour group to meet up with us..this story was horrifying to me and I just advise any single travelers, especially females to ride the camel up. If you must, go with a group, and they'll try to sell the ride expensive around $20 bucks at the bottome of mt. sinai but about 20-30 minutes walk up, they'll sell it cheaper for $15-$16..you'll see camels all the way up mt. sinai and prices will get cheaper. please just be smart and know anything could happen at the dead of night in a foreign country.
June 2011
is the red sea resort in Sharm El Sheikh safe to stay at now ?
June 2011
Yes, and was always safe! Sharm is a long way from Cairo, perhaps that's why Mubarak went there to lie low!
June 2011
My uncle's friends who are wealthy Egyptians in their 70s now living in USA, advised my uncle NOT to travel to Egypt WITH THEM for the next 1-2 years. His friend has not returned my phone call yet. Can anyone shed light on this? We hope to travel to Cairo then to Aswan-Luxor Nile cruise in September 2011. We are a young American married couple. I keep reading that Cairo is safe again. But I haven't heard anything specifically about Americans traveling to Egypt.
June 2011
thank you for your reply davidF i will shore have fun on holiday now thanks aging
August 2011
Hello everyone!!!!
I planing to to go Cai in 08/22 and i took a plan with KET TRAVEL...any bosy know about this company??? or do you have any other company to take a tour from Cairo to Luxor or some for 6 days???
August 2011
I've been reading tripadvisor this summer, and have noticed that there have been serious staff riots at Mamlouk Palace Hotel in Hurghada. Staff members have acted violently and smashed windows and interiour in the hotel. Some of the staff is told to have been acting hostile against some guests who ate their meals claiming not to understand why the hotel guests were eating as the egyptians have their Ramadan.(!!?) Scary! The riots are described as treatening and so violent that most of the guests have been very anexious and scared. Some have been evacuated to other hotels, while othters have been hiding in their rooms or at the beach while the riots have been taking place. I must admit that I have my deepest doubts and concern about spending our familyholiday at Mamlouk in late autumn, or spending our holiday i Egypt for that matter.
Has anybody heard about riots like this in other hotels in the area? There may be another hotel that are one hundred prosent safe, or what? Such riots are sure to scare tourists from travelling to Egypt, for sure. I guess we are cancelling our Egypt holiday and book our journey to a country which is safe.
September 2011
Dear Norwegian traveller staff riots are in some places and its peacful.Its not only in tourism but its from the workers in general to get fair income,the clever managements fix the problem in littel time, while hoels working and travelers start to come and Egyptian never been agrassive with the guests, We never ask why pepole not fasting as we do! and i think if pepole want to hide there are no where to hide at the beach. you can relax on the beach may be.
September 2011
Comments on the riots. If it's in staffs interest to get their fair income I will strongly suggest that they NOT are acting treathening or violently in front of hotel guests as that will scare tourists from travelling to Egypt, and the consequens of that is in worst case that hotelstaff will loose ALL their income. Worst case scenario, I guess? I'll advice staff and employed to raise their demand on the incomeissue as a nigosiation between the management and the workers, and NOT acting violently as they have been doing.
I agree with Norwegian traveller that I also will have strong doubts about going to the Mamlouk Palace, and to Egypt as a destination when there seems to be unsafe to spend our holiday. I'll strongly advice staffmembers to act friendly and nice in their demands for better salary, as we also must act in western countries. Violency is no good 'tool', rather the opposite.

First time to Capri? Here's some basic information to get you started!
Island of Capri
- 10km squared: The total area of the island
- 2 towns: Capri (7292 inhabitants) Anacapri (6733 inhabitants)
How much do hotels cost on Capri
The number of people who visit
Capri each year
The number of people who
spend at least one night
on the island
The number of people who arrive
daily on the island in August
Distance between the main airports and Capri
- 45 km from Naples
- 292 km from Rome Fiumicino
Wherever your plane lands, you'll need to reach the port of Naples from where hydrofoils to Capri depart.
If you land in Rome, bear in mind that the journey from Rome to Capri is not a short one.
You'll need at least 4 hours from the time you land.
If your plane lands in the afternoon, consider staying the night in Rome or Naples and continuing your journey to Capri the next morning.
On request, all hotels will organize a private car and boat transfer to the port of Naples and greeting service at the port of Capri: a stress-free and, if your travelling in a small group, suprisingly economic way of getting to the island.

From Arizona Game and Fish Commission
-- Spring hunt dates for turkey, javelina, buffalo and bear have been established in Arizona, but the hunt permit level for turkeys is down significantly because of the Wallow Fire.
Arizona's Commission also set the first-ever hunt permits initially for Hunt Unit 13B for Rio Grande turkey, which were introduced to Arizona in 2008.
The spring 2012 hunt application process may become available online but the online system is undergoing testing. The department expects spring hunt regulations will be available Aug. 17 online. Printed versions will be available in early September. The spring hunt application deadline is Oct. 11.
The Commission expects spring hunting licenses will be available online starting Aug. 19, although they will not be available for purchase at license dealers until Aug. 29.

In theory, this strategy can be used against Terran because Roaches are good at soaking damage, and you can kill everything else with Infested Terrans/Fungal growth, but that is only in theory. Terran units, on the contrary to the Protoss ones, aren't that tanky, but they have a lot of dps, your Roaches won't be able to deal that much damage, they will die to Marine/Marauder/Tank power before you can do anything with them or the fungal growth.
Also, Zerg really needs all the gas he can mine for later units, and even though Roaches doesn't cost that much gas at all, you can really see in the long run how massing Roaches affects your economy when you have to make a lot of gas dependent units.
That problem doesn't happen much with ZvP, because you are usually trading armies, but with ZvT, you will lose a lot more than Terran if you go for pure Roaches, and you just won't have enough gas for Infestors/Hive tech units.
Roaches are also two population, and you can get one per Larva, while lings are one population for two lings. All in all, lings can do amazing work, even though they aren't as tanky, but are really fast, have great damage, are really good for run-by's etc. But even pure lings are easily countered with bunch of Hellions, so that's the reason you see Roach/Ling mix. Roaches are tanks that soak up damage, while the lings dish it out. You charge with the Roaches first, then try to surround with the lings. That will result in more units, better spent resources and you will save some gas, since you won't focus on pumping Roaches as much.
I went a bit of topic here, but tbh, everything can work, I like to play Hydra/Roach/Ling vs. Terran, just to try something new. It all depends on positioning and how do you attack, I am pretty sure that Roach/Infestors can work, just they won't be as good as Roach/Ling/Infestors or Ling/Banes/Infestors.
If you think about it, you can play vs. Terran that way, you need to have great map control, you can't let Terran take portion of the map with Siege Tanks, in other words, you have to attack when he is unsieged. Tunneling Claws helps a lot there, since you can move underneath the Terran army, your Roaches will be in melee range, which favors you a lot, especially with Siege Tank splash and Fungal on top of that.
What you really shouldn't do, is staying too long with that unit composition. You should transition into Brood Lords/Infestor/Roaches as soon as possible, because as I said you will probably lose a lot more units than Terran will.
So, try to not be aggressive, try to play safe, control the map, have spread overlords, and attack Terran when he goes for a push across the map. Don't even try to attack his Siege Tank line.
Also, spread Roaches across your bases, 3-4 everywhere, it will be hard for Terran to drop, since Medivac can't really outheal the Roaches damage like he can do with Zerglings, that is where Roaches shine vs. Marines, in low numbers.
Sorry for the long response and huge wall of text, just my opinion on the whole thing, but I am sure that there are a lot of better players here than me that are just too lazy.
And btw, watch Nerchio's replays vs. Terran players, he usually goes for mass Roaches with lings and Infestors. Even though it isn't exactly the same, it should give you hints on how to play this strategy.

Also you dont really see roaches "tank" for lings at higher levels, people just focus fire.

Also, you don't really see Roaches "tank" for lings when Idra plays, all other Zerg players usually send Roaches first, especially when they are attacking the Siege Tank line.

Should every player of every race strive to make most alike units by your measures?
Why wouldn't u want high-hp units against people with high-dps? o0 it would still percentage-wise slow the killing at about the same (except if ur doing shot-count math ofc, but then u goto measure average-efficient-shots to)
What if i just say "protoss units have high hp and low dps, therefor zerglings are good because they kill faster, and protoss units have high hp so u need more dps" its the same logic just applied in a different way... so either your logic says nothing at all because it can be applied all around or it is flawed.
As for the Idra part, i do not see how he is related, but good terran players spread their tanks out, meaning unless ur microing ur lings to stay behind your roaches all the time (which would be rly in-efficient due to other reasons such as dmg) they arent tanking much but the first 2-4 tanks of the line. (Which means they'll still not save ur banes which u will DEFINETLY need or infestors)

As I said, Roaches have great focus power, they have 16 damage vs. all types of units which is awesome, but they attack every two seconds, which is god damn awful. They don't work good vs. high numbers of low-hp-high-dps units because they overlap their damage a lot. You need 3 Roaches to kill a Marine, but in straight battle sometimes 5 of them will attack the same target, which results in huge damage loss, and while they try to attack second time, half of them will be dead, because even if they have high hp, they can't tank Marines with stim, in other words, their HP doesn't make it up for the loss of DPS. My friend and I were doing some tests, and 30 non-upgraded Marines kills 15 Roaches with 17 Marines left... and that was when both of us engaged in melee range, so all of the units could attack.
Now, if you take a look at Stalkers and Zealots, they are a lot closer to Roaches stat-wise than to Marines and Marauders. I would say that they are equal in equal numbers, but Roaches are a lot cheaper than Stalkers, and they can kite Zealots, which is why they are good against Protoss and awful against Terran. No matter how cheap they are, Marines are cheaper in every way, and destroys Roaches, while Protoss units are equal, but Roaches are a lot cheaper than them, and you will outproduce him in a long run. I don't know how it doesn't make sense to you, it can't get simpler than that.
About the Idra part, I just mentioned him because Idra showed close to no micro in games I've watched. There are some games that I've watched where I would say: "Wow, the Idra actually has good micro!?" but he micros like that every 20th game...
And still, even if it is just few Siege Tank shots(if you don't spread your Roaches of course), it still helps a lot to get your Zerglings to his army, where they can actually do damage and where his Siege Tank will splash his own units a lot. If you ask me, that is a lot better than having 70% of Zerglings army die before they engage the enemy.

Roaches are great vs. Mech, they are the basic units to counter that unit composition, you can't do it without them, but majority of Terran players go for Bio with Tanks and few Hellions for harassment and Roaches really don't shine there.

If you ignore logistics (walking-skirting-overshooting) Having +1 HP or +1DMG (or +100 of each for that matter) doesn't really matter, as long as it matches- which in turn makes your statement completely nonsense.
(simple map and logic is all that is required to see this)
Now that that's said i myself think roaches are awesome ZvT, mainly cus they can do something zerglings cant (but this has NOTHING to do with high-hp or high-dmg) but this has to do with some simple things:
-Forcefield becomes less efficient vs ranged
-You can focus fire main aoe's better with ranged (where'as focusing collosus with zergling is more or less impossible due to logistics.
-You can kite zealots vs zealot/stalker combos
-They're an easier "massable unit" meaning you'll need less larvae etc to make an ok mid-game army of roaches then you would of lings (this MAY punnish youl lategame ofc but in this setting that is irrellevant)---This also means they're an easier unit to remax with in trading scenarios and the unit leaves more room for error vs gateway timings.
this has NOTHING to do with hp contra dmg weight balance on the unit tho.

Posted 12 March 2012 - 10:15 AM
First of all, you are right, Roaches can kite Zealots, and can kill Colossus in 1 out of 10 cases when you are not blocked by Zealots/Stalkers/Forcefields etc..
But that is not the point, I was simply explaining why Roach as tier 1 unit army is better against Protoss than against Terran tier 1 unit army.
Please, prove it to me, just in case I didn't understand you, because to me this is nonsense.
i dont think you understnad the basic logistics of damage&HP.(where'as im adding armor to the HP part in this statement)
If you ignore logistics (walking-skirting-overshooting) Having +1 HP or +1DMG (or +100 of each for that matter) doesn't really matter, as long as it matches- which in turn makes your statement completely nonsense.
(simple map and logic is all that is required to see this)
I think that Roaches are awesome ZvT too vs. Mech play, I want to see you winning Bio play with Roaches, please.
Now that that's said i myself think roaches are awesome ZvT, mainly cus they can do something zerglings cant (but this has NOTHING to do with high-hp or high-dmg)
I don't know if you are lazy to read, or don't want to read or whatever, but I am talking about TERRAN's BIO PLAY vs. ROACHES. How it doesn't have to do anything with Hit Points and Dps? Of course there are other factors, but try changing stats, and then tell me it would be the same.
Exactly, but one of the factors that makes this so great is that they are really cheap, which is what I've said in previous posts. And still, that is what I've explained already, this works only versus Protoss, because vs. Terran player, you won't trade armies, Terran will eat you alive, without major losses.
They're an easier "massable unit" meaning you'll need less larvae etc to make an ok mid-game army of roaches then you would of lings (this MAY punnish youl lategame ofc but in this setting that is irrellevant)---This also means they're an easier unit to remax with in trading scenarios and the unit leaves more room for error vs gateway timings.

In the Center for Teaching Excellence, our core mission is developing great teachers. What is involved in great teaching? That could be a LONG answer and different people would answer differently, but here is what we know—teaching involves a constant cycle that includes planning, teaching, and assessing. Teachers plan by developing content and activities, teach by delivering that content effectively, and assess the processes and results around teaching and learning in order to strategically and intentionally make adjustments. Since we know that is the big picture cycle, we built our entire curriculum around those core things—plan, teach, assess. We also know that great teachers are sensitive to the needs of students in their classrooms and that they do all their planning, teaching, and assessing with inclusion in mind.
The primary way we deliver the faculty development curriculum is through learning opportunities. We know that learning can occur in many ways, but around the CTE we use the term learning opportunities, to refer to facilitated workshops and modules. Many of our learning opportunities are face-to-face workshops, but we also offer modules online in which participants complete work that is checked by a facilitator.
The menu on the left contains links to pages with more information on our learning opportunities, including a full catalog of our core workshop descriptions, our workshop registration page, a form through which you can suggest a new learning opportunity, and a section on other development opportunities around GRCC. You can also download the most current edition of our catalog in PDF format by clicking the file to the right.

The Walking Dead Season 5: Who Got Promoted?by Matt Richenthal at . Updated at . Comments
Just days after The Walking Dead Season 4 came to a close, AMC has announced some majoro Season 5 casting news.
Christian Serratos (Rosita), Alanna Masterson (Tara) and Andrew J. West (Gareth) have all been promoted to series regular in anticipation of the show's return this fall.
This is a logical step, of course, with West portraying the leader at Terminus, where the series will be set on Season 5; and with Rosita and Tara locked in the same train car as the other main characters.
The Walking Dead Season 4 finale set a ratings record for the drama and has viewers already pondering what to expect this fall.
Is Terminus comprised of cannibals, as the graphic novels would have us believe?
Sound off on that theory, watch The Walking Dead online if you need to catch up and grade the finale now:

Welcome to the Wiki! For better or for worse, one thing you'll find on the wiki is that subjectivity is an inherent part of it. Davis Wiki doesn't try to be content-neutral the way Wikipedia and sites of that ilk do. Plus, if you ask around, you'll probably find that a very large chunk of people on the internet dislike any sound on web pages. I'm often listening to music when I browse from home, and if another tune pops up over top of what I'm listening to, "annoying" is a pretty accurate descriptor. —TomGarberson
2011-01-20 16:54:34 If you don't want that warning to be on that page, ask the owner to get rid of the sound. It is annoying and we're going to call a spade a spade here. If you disagree, fine. You're still wrong, though. I'd hate for anyone else to go to that website and be blasted with music they didn't ask for.
If you're going to be talking to the owner, the webpage could use some reworking, too. I see a gigantic blob of flash and I have no reason to activate it. People on many mobile devices will see nothing.

Is there anything I should rub it later after T-Gel shampoo for scalp psoriasis?
- Q: I only have psoriasis on my scalp. I keep it pretty well checked with T-Gel shampoo. Is there anything I should rub in later?
- A: If the T-Gel shampoo is effective at controlling your psoriasis, there is no need to add additional treatments. T-Gel original formula shampoo is to be used at least twice per week or as directed by a doctor. Wet hair thoroughly and massage on the scalp. Lather and leave on your hair and scalp for several minutes. Rinse and repeat as directed on the manufacturer's box. The same manufacturer makes T-Gel conditioner treatment to help replenish hair softness while treating dandruff. Ask your doctor if this product would be helpful for you and your psoriasis. Do not stop or start any medications or treatments without first talking to your doctor. I believe you will find the following links at everydayhealth.com also very helpful for your current situation. http://www.everydayhealth.com/skin-health/psoriasis/index.aspx. Jennifer Carey, PharmD

Conservative talker Rush Limbaugh used to tell his listeners that the government was trying to silence him, based on a completely bogus tale about what the Fairness Doctrine would do. This time around, it's an ad campaign by the liberal group Media Matters for America directed at some of the stations that air Limbaugh's show. The group is encouraging citizens to contact stations and let them know they object to Limbaugh's degrading, sexist comments about Sandra Fluke. So what's the controversy? Fox News host Bill O'Reilly thundered (3/22/12) that "the far-left is a primary source of censorship in America." He […]

Dobbs OK Because Not 'Actually Questioning the Facts'

Reporting for Associated Press (7/3/09), David Bauder has an update on CNN's insistence on "standing behind" Lou Dobbs, who has "become a publicity nightmare for CNN, embarrassed his boss and…on top of all that, his ratings are slipping." Bauder asks outright: "How does Lou Dobbs keep his job" while plugging the conspiracy theory that Barack Obama "wasn't born in the United States despite convincing evidence to the contrary"? Dobbs' work has been so unpopular that even Ann Coulter has criticized him. Dobbs has acknowledged that he believes Obama was born in Hawaii. But he gives airtime to disbelievers, and has […]

Judges are hand-selected for their level of expertise and professionalism. The judges are a diverse group of men and women from various countries across Europe and North America.
Snowboard Live Scoring System "SLS"
The Snowboarding Live Scoring System, or SLS, is now in its fourth year of being on the leading edge of judging of high level snowboard competitions. First launched successfully during the TTR 6Star Arctic Challenge slopestyle held in Oslo, and the first halfpipe at the 5Star BGOS in New Zealand in 2010 there now have been numerous competitions for the SLS to develop. In the TTR competition seasons since 2010 the SLS was used at all 6-star events that featured Slopestyle and Halfpipe. The past years have seen the SLS refinement include (two judges per feature/hit) and (default scores) based on rider feedback and will be in place for the TTR and Burton events for the upcoming 2012 –2013 season.
The SLS system combines a sharp focus on individual tricks combined with overall impression. There are dedicated Trick judges and OI (Overall Impression) judges. The combined result of Trick and OI scores gives a detailed overview of a rider's performance per Trick, their overall run impact, and the effect it has on their ranking. The SLS system allows an easy to follow scoring path delineating how the run result was achieved, a result that can be compared trick by trick, from run to run. By determining values for each trick and the OI performance judges, riders and spectators can best evaluate the run for excellence.
Each TRICK judge (in teams of two) will focus on just one obstacle in the Slopestyle, and one hit in the Halfpipe. Judges will concentrate their judging values on Amplitude, Difficulty and Execution.
Each OI judge (Overall Impression) will focus on the overall impact of the run over the entire course. Judges will concentrate their judging values on Variation, Style and Combinations.
In Slopestyle, the SLS system takes a defined number of obstacles and allocates two dedicated judges per obstacle (rails may be judged as a single obstacle or a set). Each specific obstacle (or rail set) is scored by two judges. Each feature will have a set feature value. Based on the maximum feature value for each feature, a trick score is calculated then for that feature, The individual Trick scores are then added up for a Total Trick score. For the OI (Overall Impression) score, two additional judges are dedicated to focusing solely on the usage and composition of the slopestyle run. The two OI scores are then averaged for a Total OI score. Total Trick + Total OI score results makes a Run score, which defines a rider's ranking.
In Halfpipe, the SLS system allocates two dedicated judges per hit. Two judges score each specific hit. All hits have the same value assigned. Based on the maximum value of the hit, a trick score is calculated. Only the 4 best individual Trick scores are kept and then added up for a Total Trick score. For the Flow Score, two additional judges are dedicated to focusing solely on the usage and composition of the halfpipe run. Flow judges will take into account all hits (tricks) beyond the 4 top scoring hits that are scored by the trick judges as well as any insecurity including falls. The two OI scores are averaged for a Total OI score. Total Trick + Total OI score results makes a Run score, which defines a rider's ranking.
Trick and OI judges will score on a 0 -100 scale. The Run score is the sum of the total trick and OI score and will be communicated with a common 0 – 100 points value.

Strawberry Basil LemonadePosted: May 24, 2012 Filed under: All Posts Leave a comment
Lemonade reminds me of long, warm summers as a child. I'd sleep in, read books, run around barefoot, lounge in the sun, and spend all day doing absolutely nothing (oh wait, that sounds like what I'm doing this summer as well).
However, I don't like lemonade that's too sweet so I prefer to make my own.
The above strawberry basil lemonade isn't too sweet and it's a great twist on the classic. It's perfect for a summer dinner party because everyone loves lemonade and everyone loves fancy lemonade even more (if your friends don't, I suggest you find new dinner guests and reevaluate your friendships).

Annals of Bad Headline Writing
Headline: New Poll: Bring Down Debt, Don't Spend More.
Key Graf:
Fifty-six percent of respondents said that they were not willing to pay more in taxes in order to reduce the deficit, and nearly as many said they were not willing for the government to provide fewer services in areas such as health care, education and defense spending.
Look, there's a way to bring down the debt without spending more, it's called spending less. But people don't want that either. So this is the fundamental tension here, completely missing from the headline.
How about: New Poll: Bring Down Debt, Don't Spend Less.

Documentation below is in somewhat raw state, sorry.
Controlling with mouse:
- Left mouse click
- If none curve selected, create new curve with one point (so use backspace to start creating new curve), else add point to selected curve after selected point.
- Middle mouse click (or left mouse click with Shift down)
- Select closest control point (and select it's curve).
- Dragging with right mouse button down
- If ctrl is not down, then you move selected point. Else you move whole selected curve.
For a whole lifetime, you can have one selected curve and one selected point on that curve.
On start background is inited from UserOptionsPath + default_bezier_curves_image.jpg, if it exists. UserOptionsPath = (linux, freebsd, macosx) home dir, (windows) exe dir.
Save/Open work using non-standard nodes RationalBezierCurve and SmoothInterpolatedCurve (defined in unit VRMLBezierCurve).

Hans Sebald Beham
German, about 1522
Pen and brown ink, red chalk, and gray, red, and brown wash
Diam.: 9 in.
The Virgin Mary and Joseph watch with clasped hands as a priest prepares to circumcise their son, the infant Jesus. The drawing's simplified linear style appropriately renders their air of homespun piety. Sebald Beham relied upon simple, bold outlines and hatching to describe the scene, since few details would be visible once the scene was set high in a church window. During the 1520s, Beham and his workshop produced many designs for stained-glass windows. This highly finished sketch was part of a series of more than twenty-five works made for a group of windows showing scenes from the lives of the Virgin and Christ. The drawing functioned as a cartoon for a specialist stained-glass maker, who then cut and painted the glass in shapes and colors according to the design. The color notations and red chalk lines inscribed throughout the drawing indicate the placement of glass sections and leading. The lead was then soldered and cemented around the glass pieces before the panels were secured to the window's iron cross-bars.
