With Opening Day fast approaching, most teams are making their final roster decisions. Normally, we don't get to see those decisions made in public. During a game. On the mound.
But that's what happened to Indians right-hander Blake Wood on Thursday:
That's Indians manager Terry Francona telling Wood he's headed to The Show. According to Fox Sports Ohio, Wood wasn't supposed to find out he'd be breaking camp to Cleveland until the morning, but when Francona heard the righty was struggling with some confidence issues, he decided to act sooner:
Wood formerly pitched for the Royals, making 106 appearances between 2010 and 2011, but ultimately underwent Tommy John surgery in 2012. Since then, his only appearance was as a September callup last season with the Indians -- pitching just 1 and 1/3 innings. But now, he's poised to play a larger role:
Say what you will about his sense of direction, but Tito does right by his guys.

NEW HOPE, Minn. (WCCO) – On Tuesday morning a jury convicted Douglas Carl Manney in the killing of his girlfriend, Kristeen Sandeen, in their New Hope apartment last year.
Manney, 51, was convicted of second-degree unintentional murder by the jury, which had deliberated for about five hours.
Manney will be sentenced on Dec. 5 by Hennepin County District Court Judge Marilyn Kaman. Guidelines call for 150 months in prison, but allows for 180 months, and that's what prosecutors will request.
Sandeen, 40, was found to have died from strangulation.

If this is, in fact, how fail2ban behaves, wouldn't it re-add the IP address in question as soon as fail2ban is restarted?
I wouldn't think so but I don't know the inner workings of fail2ban. I mean I've had my server restarted after fail2ban put in some IPs and seemed like only the rules themselves were loaded. Someone who is more familiar with how it works wil probably be able to better answer it though.

Issue: Whether aiding and abetting under MCL 767.39 can be proven where the defendant failed to act according to a legal duty, but provided no other form of assistance to the perpetrator of the crime.
Calendar Number: Oral Argument on Application
to view the briefs.
Issue: Which party – the state or the plaintiff school districts - has the burden of proving underfunding of a legislative mandate in a challenge under Const 1963, art 9, § 29 (the Headlee Amendment), what elements of proof are necessary to sustain such a claim, and does acceptance of a general appropriation from the Legislature waive any challenge to the funding level for those requirements?
Calendar Number: 1
Issue: 2012 PA 300, which amended the Public School Employees Retirement Act, requires public school employees to pay for retiree healthcare benefits by paying a 3% levy on their salary or to opt out of receiving retiree healthcare benefits. 2012 PA 300 also requires current public school employees to choose between various retirement benefit options, including paying a 4% levy on salary to stay in the defined benefit retirement program. The plaintiff school labor unions argue that 2012 PA 300 is unconstitutional and a breach of contract; the Court of Appeals upheld the law.
Calendar Number: 2
Issue: Does a legislative provision barring consideration of a necessarily included lesser offense violate the separation of powers doctrine? Does MCL 257.626(5) violate a defendant's right to a jury trial by foreclosing a jury instruction on a lesser offense? Is MCL 257.601d a necessarily included lesser offense of MCL 257.626(4)?
Calendar Number:
Issue: The plaintiff was injured when the car he was driving was sideswiped by a dump truck operated by a city employee. Is the plaintiff's tort claim against the city transportation department barred by governmental immunity? Do damages for pain and suffering, or emotional distress, qualify as a "bodily injury," so that the plaintiff's claim falls under the motor vehicle exception to governmental immunity, MCL 691.1405?
Calendar Number: 3
Issue: What is the source and nature of the County's power to move funds from the Inflation Equity Fund (IEF)? Does the movement of IEF assets to the defined benefit plan without a corresponding offset to the County's Annual Required Contribution violate the Public Employee Retirement System Investment Act (PERSIA)? Does the movement of $32 million in IEF assets to the defined benefit plan constitute a "transaction" within the meaning of MCL 38.1133(8)?
Calendar Number: 8
Opinions: 147296-Opinion
Issue: The plaintiff was injured when the car she was driving was struck by a State of Michigan truck. Under the motor vehicle exception to governmental immunity, a governmental agency can be liable for "bodily injury." Does economic loss, in the form of wage loss, qualify as a "bodily injury" under the motor vehicle exception, MCL 691.1405? Did the plaintiff present such evidence in this case?
Issue: Was the defendant denied his constitutional right to the effective assistance of trial counsel? Was the defendant denied the right to present a defense? Is the defendant entitled to a new trial?
Issue: Does MCL 15.271(4) authorize an award of attorney fees and costs to a plaintiff who obtains declaratory relief regarding claimed violations of the Open Meetings Act, or must the plaintiff obtain injunctive relief as a necessary condition of recovering attorney fees and costs under MCL 15.271(4)?
Calendar Number: Oral Arguments on Application
Issue: Can interest and administrative fees for delinquent taxes be waived in a Michigan Tax Tribunal proceeding in which the Macomb County Treasurer was not a party; was the Macomb County Treasurer in a legal relationship with Macomb Township for purposes of waiving interest and fees; and does the plaintiff's complaint for relief fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tax Tribunal?
Orders: 147384 Order
Calendar Number: 4
Issue: Are the parties' agreements requirements contracts, and if so, does that affect the issue of the defendant's alleged breach of contract; was summary disposition appropriately granted to the plaintiffs on the issue of liability; and, assuming that the defendant is liable for breach of contract, what is the period for which the defendant is responsible for the plaintiffs' lost profits?
Orders: 147860 Order
Calendar Number: 5
Issue: Was the evidence sufficient to show that the defendant engaged in the "intrusion, however slight, of any part of a person's body or of any object into the genital or anal openings of another person's body," such that his conviction of first-degree criminal sexual conduct under MCL 750.520b can be sustained?

Peace deal will draw investments to Phl
"Foreign investors need a peaceful and business-friendly environment before they set their businesses in the country, especially in the Bangsamoro region. The challenge for the peace pact is to raise the level of investments in the region," Valenzuela City Rep. Sherwin Gatchalian said.
Gatchalian also said the peace pact is seen to pave the way for an environment that will allow economic development to begin, following the decades of conflict in Southern Philippines.
"The peace pact will guarantee that the Bangsamoro will be a fertile ground for the much-needed investments," he said.
According to a special report of the World Bank Institute, the years of discord "amount to a period in which human or economic development is suspended or, in some cases, even reversed.
Gatchalian noted that peace will set an environment hospitable to economic activities. Former International Monetary Fund (IMF) chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn himself tied peace and economic stability, saying: "Peace is a necessary precondition for trade, sustained economic growth, and prosperity. In turn, economic stability, and a rising prosperity that is broadly shared—both within and among countries—can foster peace."

So I brewed a Black IPA a while back for the Northern California Homebrewers Fesitval. I dry hopped it in the keg using Cheescloth as a Hopsack(never again will I do this) Anyhow, while driving to the festival the Cheesecloth worked it's way open and now there are a ton of hops loose in the keg. I've unclogged it numerous times but everytime I get the keg back together it clogs immediately. I've also put a paint strainer over the diptube as a filter with no luck. My thought now is either dump it, or de-carb it, pour it through a paint strainer into one of my fermenters(everything sanitized of course), dose the keg with some fresh hops in a paint strainer this time, then rack the beer back into the keg.
My main concern is that I have messed with the beer so much to this point that I may have ruined it. I've never had this issue before so if anyone has any suggestions or thoughts I'd appreciate it.
Thanks in advance
Kegged: NADA
Bottled: Blackberry Mead
Primary #1:IPA
Primary #2:
On Deck: Pilsener, Brown, Barleywine, Coffee Porter
I would take that second option except that I would siphon, rather than pour the beer.
If his dip is clogging, the siphon will do the same.
I poured a dry hopped IPA from a fermenter into a keg (with mesh bag to retain hop matter) with minimal splashing and have not detected any oxidation. I may have gotten lucky, but I saw no other option at the time.
Another fyi: when transferring the beer, chill your siphon tub/racking cane and whatever vessel you are siphoning into. This will help reduce foaming.
I was just speaking from personal experience with a continually clogged auto siphon after using all of the suggestions posted above. Of course, I may have had more hop material to contend with than the OP (or either of you), but I had extreme difficulty nonetheless. I observed hop material both floating and settled on the bottom of the carboy, and I observed hops clogging the bottom of the auto siphon as I inserted it into the carboy (through the hop material) which led to a clogged condition even with the auto siphon apparently safely above the settled hops material and the floating layer.
But yes, in a perfect world, siphon.
I've never tried this, but instead of your paint strainer as your filter, maybe a hunk of (sanitized) stainless steel wool over the end? Maybe try that before siphoning?
I made the mistake of putting my pellet hops directly into the keg (once) and had the same problem. I ended up just letting the hops settle and then siphoned the beer to another keg. I made sure that I didn't suck up any of the hops from the bottom of the first keg. There was so much gunk in the poppet that I had to soak it over night to get it to loosen up enough to clean.
The beer turned out fine, BTW.

Thanks all, I haven't dealt with it yet, it will have to wait for the weekend. The other thing that sucks is that I will have to transfer it twice, because all of my other kegs are full. There is still quite a bit of hops floating as well, they're whole so some settle and some don't.

Center A.J. West had 11 points, nine rebounds and five blocks for the Wolf Pack.
Jan. 08, 2014
Final Stats | Photo Gallery | Photo Gallery
LAS VEGAS (AP) - Deonte Burton scored 29 points Wednesday night to lead Nevada to a road win over Mountain West Conference-rival UNLV, 74-71.
Trailing 36-34 at halftime, the Wolf Pack scored the first 11 points of the second half to pull ahead 45-36. Nevada continued on a 23-10 run to go up 57-46 with 11:13 left, and cruised to victory.
The Wolf Pack (8-8, 3-0 Mountain West) got 18 points and seven rebounds from Michael Perez, while A.J. West added 11 points and nine rebounds. Nevada was outrebounded 46-38 by UNLV in the game but had better marksmanship, hitting 29 of 65 (45 percent) from the field.
UNLV (10-6, 1-2) had four players in double figures, led by Bryce Dejean-Jones' 15 points. Roscoe Smith, the nation's leading rebounder, had 13 points and 15 rebounds for the Runnin' Rebels, who lost their second in a row at home.
"We've got to figure out why it is, that we've been so much better away from the Thomas and Mack, than we've been in the Thomas and Mack," said UNLV coach Dave Rice, whose Rebels are 6-5 at home and 4-1 away from Las Vegas.
UNLV was outscored by Nevada in the paint, 38-32. The Rebels, who led by as many as 11 late in the first half, also shot an abysmal 3 of 15 (20 percent) from 3-point range, and just 22 of 63 (35 percent) from the field.
Nevada turned back UNLV's 34-23 lead by closing the first half on an 11-2 run. The Wolf Pack held UNLV to just two points over a seven-minute period, spanning the final 3:10 of the first half and the first 3:50 of the second half.
"We just didn't stay focused and they definitely took advantage of us in the second half," Smith said.
Nevada has now won three in a row, and will host Utah State on Saturday in Reno. UNLV, meanwhile, is off for a week and has two tough road games at New Mexico on Jan. 15 and No. 13 San Diego State on Jan. 18.
Nevada men's basketball postgame notes
Nevada improved to 8-8 on the season and 3-0 in Mountain West play after defeating UNLV (10-6, 1-2 MW) 74-71 in Las Vegas tonight.
The Wolf Pack has won a season-high three in a row.
The Pack improved to 5-2 on the road and 5-4 away from Reno. Last season Nevada was 2-12 away from home.
The win snapped an eight-game losing skid to the Rebels. The Wolf Pack's last win in the series also came in Las Vegas, 68-61 on Nov. 26, 2005.
The win is part of the Governor's Series presented by NV Energy competition between the two Nevada schools.
The Pack's three wins in Mountain West play equals its total from last season when Nevada finished last in the league with a 3-13 record, in its initial year in the conference.
Nevada had a season-high 10 blocks. AJ West totaled five blocks which is the top total by a Pack player this season.
Nevada hosts Utah State (11-3, 1-1 MW) on Saturday at 5:05 p.m.
Deonte Burton scored a game-high 29 points to move over 1,800 for his career. Burton's 1,815 points ranks fourth in school history behind Edgar Jones' (1975-79) 1,877. He became the school leader in free throws made with 549, three more than Nick Fazekas (2004-07).
Burton has scored 20 or more points in game 11 times this year and posted a game-high for the ninth time. It was the 13th time he led the Pack in scoring.
Burton, the NCAA I leader in minutes played logged a season-low 32 minutes tonight. He entered the game having played 233 minutes and 31 seconds consecutively. The streak ended at 240 minutes and 22 seconds as he went to the bench at the 13:09 mark of the first half tonight.
Junior guard Michael Perez tied his career-high with 18 points. Perez has made a three-pointer in every game this season.
West scored in double figures for the third consecutive game with 11 points and was one rebound short of his second double-double grabbing nine boards.
Jerry Evans, Jr. and West tied for team-high honors with nine rebounds each.
West's line was 11 points, nine rebounds and five blocks in 20 minutes. He had four fouls that limited his minutes.
Head coach David Carter earned his first win as the Pack's head coach in the intrastate rivalry. Carter is 82-66 in his fifth season at Nevada.

Raptor Pharmaceutical Provides Financial And Clinical Program Updates
Enrollment in Pivotal Phase 3 Clinical Trial in Cystinosis on Schedule for Completion in Q4 2010 with Results Expected Q1 2011
Phase 2 Clinical Trial in Huntington's Disease to Commence Enrollment in September
NOVATO, Calif., Aug. 24, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Raptor Pharmaceutical Corp. ("Raptor" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:RPTP), provides updates on timelines related to its clinical programs including the pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of its proprietary delayed-release oral formulation of cysteamine bitartrate ("DR Cysteamine") in patients with nephropathic cystinosis ("cystinosis").Financial Updates and Guidance As of August 24, 2010, the Company has approximately $17.2 million in cash and cash equivalents taking into account approximately $14 million of proceeds, net of placement agent fees and expenses, the Company received in a private placement financing which closed on August 12, 2010. The Company anticipates that its cash and cash equivalents will support planned operations and its planned clinical development programs, as described below, into December 2011. Cystinosis Raptor's cystinosis program remains the highest priority for the Company. "Over the next 18 months, the majority of the Company's resources will be devoted to completing what we believe will be the final development phase of this program," said Christopher M. Starr, Ph.D., CEO of Raptor. "Anticipating the successful completion of our ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial in 2010 and NDA submission in 2011, we are building the commercial infrastructure in our anticipation of a commercial launch in 2012." In November 2009, Raptor completed its Phase 2b clinical trial of DR Cysteamine in cystinosis. DR Cysteamine demonstrated improved tolerability and the potential to reduce total daily dosage and administration frequency compared to immediate-release cysteamine bitartrate. On June 28, 2010, Raptor enrolled the first patient in its pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial in cystinosis. This trial is designed as a randomized, crossover, outpatient study of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics ("PK") and pharmacodynamics ("PD") of DR Cysteamine compared to immediate-release cysteamine bitartrate in cystinosis patients. The study is being conducted at nine centers: four in the U.S., including Emory University, Children's Memorial Hospital at Northwestern University, Stanford University, and Texas Children's Hospital at Baylor University; and five in the EU including in Hopital Necker-Enfants Malades and Hopital Robert Debré in Paris, Hospices Civils de Lyon in Lyon, France, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire in Montpellier, France and Radboud University Medical Center in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.

My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
Well, I did my first Fantasy draft of the year last night, and WOW, I'm really happy with it. It is a 1PPR league and I got the 11th pick. I can't believe so many people passed on Ray Rice in the first that he would drop to me, but I'll take it! Michael Turner in the 3rd was a nice bonus too, which I'm sure Tkyss will approve :D There were quite a few questionable draft picks, including Schaub at #10. I'll post a pic of the first 6 rounds just for kicks.
Check out my draft below, and disregard the last two picks, those were forced by league rules as you must draft at least 2 of each position. The league is a typical flex setup. I already have my waivers put in to get Reggie Bush, LT, CJ Spiller and/or Roy Helu instead of the Rams D and Tynes. What do you guys think for RB waiver pickups? I figure I should look for another RB as I'm not certain about Daniel Thomas, but I figure Reggie Bush would be the best grab in case he takes the lionshare of carries for the Dolphins.
Other guys out there on the wire: Julio Jones, Roy Williams, Rashad Jennings, AJ Green, Hines Ward, James Starks, Darren Sproles, Crabtree, Helu, Lee Evans, Mike Williams (Sea), Davone Bess, Thomas Jones, Ronnie Brown, Ben Tate, Jason Snelling, Delone Carter, Ricky Williams.
My team - Miracles!
Round (overall)
1. (11) Ray Rice (Bal - RB)
2. (14) Roddy White (Atl - WR)
3. (35) Michael Turner (Atl - RB)
4. (38) Vincent Jackson (SD - WR)
5. (59) Marques Colston (NO - WR)
6. (62) Matt Ryan (Atl - QB)
7. (83) Daniel Thomas (Mia - RB)
8. (86) Sam Bradford (StL - QB)
9. (107) Greg Olsen (Car - TE)
10. (110) Fred Jackson (Buf - RB)
11. (131) Zach Miller (Sea - TE)
12. (134) San Diego (SD - DEF)
13. (155) Nick Folk (NYJ - K)
14. (158) St. Louis (StL - DEF)
15. (179) Lawrence Tynes (NYG - K)
Some pretty ridiculous picks in your draft. You getting Rice & White with your first two picks was huge. Like you said, Turner was a nice consolation prize with him there in the third.
Not real thrilled with your QBs. Do you guys use 4 point per TD or 6? If 6 then I think your QB situation could be a little worrisome. I'm also not a big Colston fan for this year (with his knee the way it is) so who are you going to use in the flex? Your top 2 WRs and RBs are very good but curious what your plans are for the flex. Also, not sure what to think of Miller at TE. What did Seattle end up doing with Carlson? But Olsen could be a very good pick since he will probably get a lot of work in Carolina.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
major face palm for General Lee....his 1st 3 picks are atrocious. Clearly this dude didn't know what he was doing. you sir will be the door mat of the league. I love matt schaub and all but no way in hell he deserves to be a 1st rounder much less taken before the likes of Drew Brees, Phillip Rivers, larry fitzgerald, ray rice... calvin johnson, MJD.. etc. :vincepalm:
Even had he auto drafted he could've gotten a better team. Hope this wasn't a money league.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
I'm not huge on Colston either, and looking back I should have taken Finley there. For the flex I'll use Colston, Thomas or some other RB I get on the wire. Maybe Reggie Bush if I get him, since I have second waiver priority, but I think Daniel Thomas may turn out to be worth it. TE I'm not too concerned with, as it's not a very good position to invest in heavily. I figure between Miller and Olsen, one of them is bound to be useful. DST I usually play off the wire each week, so I don't really care, but the Chargers is good enough given their weak schedule.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
Brooklyn Bombers will be hard to handle. He's got a good team. I think you should snag Ben Tate and stash him on the bench if Arian goes down you have a #1 RB. Lee Evans and Ronnie Brown are tempting too.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
That's sick. Can't believe you got Turner in the 3rd, I have him as a top 6 back this year and have consistently seen him go in the 5-15 range.
Love that you got the trio of Matty Ice, Turner, and Roddy. Just did my draft Saturday and went in with the strategy of getting as many Atlanta players as I could and came away with 0.
Not a big fan of Colston with the knee issues but that's a very high upside
I've heard bad things about Daniel Thomas, I would definitely try to grab Bush. If he stays healthy he could be a ppr stud.
Awesome draft!
I like what Tate has done this year, but I don't see him being worth a bench spot until Foster has issues. I may pick up Evans as an alternate though.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
I'm a member of a FF forum and read some bad things from some of the Miami fans. Said he looked like he "had cement blocks on his feet" "doesn't run with good pad level" and that they basically weren't impressed, but I should reiterate that this was all before his game on Saturday.
True, Bush can't ever stay healthy and that's why I threw that qualifier in my original post but I still think that when healthy he can be a quality FF back. I just like the value of being able to pick up a starting RB as late as he's going. If he gives you a good half of a season he's lived up to his draft position.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
Man, I am stoked about fantasy football season. I really want to play in a league with you guys next year. So excited to have this conversation topic again and would love to play with you, your wife, and Dutch. Maybe put a little money on it as well.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
But man, I'd love to play in your league. All of us in my league have all been playing together for like 8 years now. Only thing is now most of them are married, have kids, and simply aren't as devoted to fantasy. We used to all get together for the draft, do auction drafts, etc but now no one has the time. I am among the married with children bunch, but I still have more than enough time in my life for fantasy football. So all that is to say I'd love to find another group of guys devoted to fantasy as much, or close to as much as I am. So keep me in mind for future years. And like I said if I can participate online or anything, I'd be happy to draft for your friend.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
I don't want it to sound like I'm in love with the guy though. No way I touch him before the 10th round and I may have even reached in the 11th. He does have a pretty high ceiling though.
Re: My 2011 Fantasy Draft Team
Anyone else interested in doing a live draft tonight? I have one guy that won't make it, and I just need someone to stand in for him. I'll buy you a beer and promise not to make you sticker ***** for the night!

State of Affairs: Calderon, AIDS Healthcare Foundation, Garcetti's teddy bear drive, more
Rich Pedroncelli/AP
State Sen. Ron Calderon, D-Montebello, left, holds a brief news conference during first appearance at the Capitol since the FBI investigators raided his offices in Sacramento, Calif. Sen. Calderon was a no-show with an unexcused absence after at least a half-dozen FBI agents carted boxes from his Sacramento offices following a more than six-hour search in June 2013. Sen. Calderon did not answer any questions and no details have been given for the search and no charges have been filed.
KPCC political reporters Alice Walton and Frank Stoltze.joined Take Two for "State of Affairs," our look at politics and government throughout California.
We begin with a man who's been in the news a lot recently – embattled State Senator Ron Calderon. Yesterday, he turned the tables on the FBI and filed a complaint against it. The complaint, issued the same day a group of elected officials called on Calderon to resign, alleges that the FBI was retaliating for his refusal to take part in a sting operation.
In West Los Angeles, former State Senator Sheila Kuehl has secured some interesting endorsements in her run for L.A. County supervisor.
In other news, the AIDS Healthcare Foundation is backing away a bit from a highly controversial ballot measure that would have created a new city health department.
A new poll out this week has some confusing results on Governor Jerry Brown. Voters like him, but not necessarily his policies.
Finally, it's time to get warm and fuzzy with Mayor Eric Garcetti's teddy bear drive. How do you feel about teddy bears?

It works in most situations, light and nice. You cannot have any other connector close to it since it will cover those connectors as it is larger.

Quick drive up the road to the resturants
Although not the cheapest, this is a lovely hotel. The rooms are huge and the complimentary toiletries are fancy! The pool and hot tub are nice and open long hours to give you plenty of opportunity to take advantage of them before or after a day's sightseeing around Page.
Unfortunately, the hotel location means that you can't walk in to Page as there's no pavement, but there's plenty of parking in the town and the hotel will call a taxi for you if don't want to drive.
We arrived early and the staff made every effort to get us into a room quickly. They were also very helpful in booking a nearby tour. The room was clean and comfortable. Enjoyed our stay.
Bar & Restaurant
High class, quiet, spacious & clean room Breakfast is excellent.
1. Hair dryer is so invisible (covered with the clothe bag and hidden away in the cabinet) to find it just before check out, so we couldn't use it. 2. Dinner at the hotel restaurant is expensive for the quality of dishes.
Great beds - a fantastic night's sleep, also good pool area and facilities (e.g. laundry).
A little outside the main town - needed to drive.
Wonderful courtyard, pool. Excellent dinner on outdoor patio. Easy access to tour pickup for Glen Canyon raft ride.
Based on photos, we didn't realize setting was basically in a parking lot - not anywhere near the lake.
Booked a king size bed for honeymoon, received a queen size. Staff seemed to find this normal. After multiple complains, they gave us a breakfast voucher for 1 person!! Staff unpleasant. Assistant manager didn't want to call manager. Doesn't answer email. We asked help to book activites, no answer from concierge, so everything was fully booked when we arrived.
Lovely pool area Plenty of parking Good location just outside Page, so not too far to travel for restaurants etc Close to Antelope Canyon
Breakfast area really busy with coach parties leaving in the morning Decor looking a bit tired
Room was dirty Hotel dirty I booked 3 months prior to get a mountain view top floor. I got a view of the inside where the pool was 2nd floor. I paid 219.00 and they charged 179 for the same room.
It was an oasis in the middle of our trip. The pool was great, with a real spa. Beds were great, everything clean, nice sized rooms. Laundry facilities. All combined a nice hotel I would go here again.
Wifi did not work at all during our one night stay which was quite disturbing since we checked in to make travel plans. Complaint did not lead to anything.
Low rise nicely designed hotel with really nice landscaping around pool. Breeakfast good.OUtside of Page but only just - a short three minute car drive away from the main streets.
Some of the restaurant staff were very focused on making sure you knew gratuity was due. One or two excellent staff but two or three who spoiled it with a bad attitude. Internet very slow in the evening but ok rest of the day.
For the price it should have included breakfast.
Free parking. Good entrance from road. Good breakfast. Silent.
Long distance from the city center, so need to use a car for visiting restaurants at Page.
Great position. Lovely hotel
Very close to Antelope Canyon and Lake Powell. Nice overall hotel and room. Front desk manager definitely a pro and extremely helpful.
Some secondary common areas are not up to the rest of the hotel. Need more attention to details.
Clean room, nice accommodations
Carpet inside elevator was dirty & needed to be vacuumed.
Clean Nice size rooms Helpful staff Breakfast Great location
Wifi, wifi, wifi It created a problem for me
Lots of parking space even for boat trailer, nice complex. Sweet maids and buffet staff.
Noisy air conditions outlets of the rooms made pool and outside area not very enjoyable instead it was disturbingly loud. Were asked to tip the breakfast staff - sorry but it was a self-service breakfast buffet and getting the coffee by the table should be a granted service by such a hotel (or part of the buffet as well to be consequent). Slowest Internet, almost unusable.
Miles away from a Courtyard standard. Needs urgently renovation. Much to much money for this quality. Fergot the restaurant.
good location, really nice pool and outdoors restaurant with beautiful views, ambiance and sunset
unhelpful staff (lazy) - they really irritated us
big room very welcoming lady at reception desk when we checked in
breakfast wasn't included though the price of the room was quite high; no information on the different breakfast options until they give you the bill...
Clean rooms and comfortable beds.
Maybe we had a bad deal, but the price of 250 per night was not worth it. Staff wasn't too friendly, seemed to be arguing amongst themselves.
About 2 1/2 hours from Monument Valley. Clean, quiet rooms. Comfortable beds and a good nights sleep. Good breakfast buffet. Plenty of parking
A bit Pricey.

Statewide Showdown
Perfect Game Staff
Tuesday, May 05, 2009
Say that title three times fast!
Bartonville Limestone hosted its second annual Statewide Showdown. And while the statewide representation was down due to a schedule change, it still served as a showcase for two of the best position prospects in the state.
On Friday night, in front of a dozen MLB organizations, Limestone's Seth Schwindenhammer and Oak Park-River Forest's Jo Jo Maldonado squared off in the unofficial opener of the event. Neither got a chance to show much. Schwindenhammer went 1-for-2 with two RBIs after being walked once intentionally and hit by a pitch. Maldonado finished 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI. Limestone, which led 8-1 after four innings, held on for an 8-6 win.
Schwindenhammer showed his power on Saturday, however, as he led Limestone (17-5) to a 10-1 win over rival Peoria Notre Dame (16-4). The sweet-swinging lefty was 3-for-4 with a pair of home runs, including a sixth-inning grand slam, and seven RBIs. He also turned a pair of double plays from centerfield by doubling runners off of first base.
Maldonado's OP-RF squad dropped a 10-7 decision to Illinois Valley Central on Saturday. Maldonado finished the day 2-for-4 again, but showcased a troubling trend as he committed his second error in as many nights. Illinois State recruit Jordan Parr had the hot bat for IVC, finishing 3-for-4 with a double, a home run and 5 RBIs.
Also impressive on the weekend were a pair of Wright State recruits. Beardstown lefty Tanner Howell struck out 12 and walked just one in a 6-3 win over Addison Driscoll. His future teammate, Sam Picchiotti of OP-RF, didn't stand out the plate, but displayed the type of gritty, winning attitude that inevitably seems to lead to success.
Finally, there was a bitten of a hidden gem on display. Washington senior centerfielder Alex Wilson is as physically gifted player that I've seen come through Central Illinois. At 6-foot-4, 210 pounds he cuts an imposing figure, yet still has good enough speed to have stolen home twice during American Legion play last summer. Injuries to his left knee and a torn finger tendon limited him as a junior and hindered his exposure. Finally healthy, he hitting .508 with 17 doubles and 15 RBIs for Washington (14-6). He's a player that colleges should be taking a closer look at.

"You can cut your wrist wide open and bleed out all of your miseries," sings Lil Thunder's Marie Litton on "Serpent and the Rainbow," the rousing opener to Razor Blades & Sunshine, the followup to the band's self-titled debut EP, released in 2011. It's just one of many poignant lines on the ten-song album penned by Litton, who previously fronted Ghost Buffalo. While she clearly has a knack for writing affecting lyrics, the diminutive Litton packs a powerful vocal punch as well. At times her phrasing recalls that of Neko Case, only in a higher register, especially on "Serpent and the Rainbow" and "Witchboard." Throughout the album, Lil Thunder (which also includes former Ghost Buffalo guitarist Tom Ventura as well as bassist Joey Coloroso and drummer Dan Fox) offers commanding, melodic pop rock, powered by those captivating vocals.

Five thousand years ago in the Indus Valley of Pakistan and India, people fired blocks of mud to create bricks. In 2014, we're still making bricks in much the same way. If Ginger Krieg Dosier has her way, that's about to change.
Dosier, 36, is the founder and CEO of bioMASON, a young North Carolina company that is developing a new way to make bricks. Inspired by nature, the production process is intended to be easier on nature as well.
The old way of making bricks uses fire (combustion of wood, coal or other fuel), which gives off carbon dioxide, one of the main gases that contribute to climate change. More than 1 trillion bricks are produced in the world yearly, emitting an estimated 800 million tons of carbon dioxide, according to Dosier.
Dosier, who has a master's degree in architecture from the Cranbrook Academy of Art, in Michigan, and a bachelor's from Auburn University's College of Architecture, Design and Construction, wondered whether it would be possible to create durable building materials without combustion. After all, a clam creates its own shell, and coral creates its own reef.
"Why can't we grow a material similar to seashells and coral reefs?" she asked herself. "If it is possible to do this in the oceans at ambient temperatures, how can we learn from that process and mimic it on a commercially viable scale?"
It might seem odd for an architect to wander into materials science, but Dosier said, "The power of architecture is not just about making buildings; it's about making things better, designing spaces that function better." For Dosier, that means designing and producing better materials to make those buildings.
As she investigated ways of growing bricks, Dosier wasn't stymied by her lack of scientific background. Instead, she read books, audited courses, and worked with professors in biology, chemistry, and materials sciences at N.C. State, where she was a visiting assistant professor in the School of Design from 2005 to 2007. She learned a bacteria called Sporosarcina pasteurii produces a cement that can turn sand into sandstone.
Sporosarcina pasteurii poses no threat to health, according to José Bruno-Bárcena, an assistant professor of microbiology at N.C. State University and one of Dosier's early mentors.
"It is a safe bacteria," he said, adding, "Most of the bacteria are not pathogenic organisms. The amount (of bacteria species) that are not safe is really very, very small."
Experiments – and a recipe
Dosier began experimenting in her spare bedroom in Raleigh with concoctions of sand, Sporosarcina pasteurii, water and other ingredients. The bacteria need a source of nitrogen for fertilizer and a source of calcium to produce calcium carbonate, the same material that makes up seashells and coral reefs.
After plenty of false starts and mistakes, Dosier worked out a recipe by which she could reliably produce a brick in several days at room temperature.
In the meantime, she and her husband, Michael Dosier, had moved to the United Arab Emirates, to teach architecture at the American University.
"We were young with no kids and wanted a different experience," she said. "There's a lot of interesting (architectural) work happening in that part of the world and it's an extreme environment. We wanted to be part of something growing fast."
Now the Dosiers are back in North Carolina, and the thing that's growing fast is their own company, bioMASON, which they founded in 2012. They began in space leased from First Flight Technology Incubator in Research Triangle Park and with funds from the North Carolina Biotechnology Center and the Cherokee-McDonough Challenge. This month, they are moving into space on NCSU's Centennial Campus and a production facility in Raleigh. They will soon be up to seven employees.
Most bricks are produced in the region where they will be used, so bioMASON's business plan is to license the ingredients and the process to existing brick manufacturers. Imagine a brick-growing "greenhouse," in which molds filled with sand (or similar aggregate) and bacteria would be irrigated with water enriched with sources of nitrogen and calcium. The bacteria would produce calcium carbonate to cement the sand together. After several days, the irrigation would be turned off, at which point the bacteria would die, leaving behind a hard, durable brick.
Plus for environment
Not only does this brick-making process eliminate the carbon dioxide emissions associated with firing, it removes carbon from the atmosphere because the bacteria are responsible for the production of calcium carbonate formation, which is made of calcium, carbon, and oxygen.
"In a sense, it sequesters carbon dioxide," Dosier said.
The process also has the potential to remove pollution from the environment in other ways. For example, urea from agricultural animal waste can be used as the nitrogen source. It might even be possible to design the irrigation system to use – and treat – wastewater.
No material lasts forever, but Dosier intends for bioMASON bricks to be at least as durable as current building materials. She is currently testing bioMASON bricks in atmospheric chambers designed to mimic thousands of years of weathering. If the tests show any weaknesses, she'll tweak the process until she's convinced the bricks will withstand wind, rain, acid rain, sleet, snow, freezing, thawing, and heat waves.
She also intends for the cost of producing these bricks to be comparable to current production technologies. She says the cost per brick has fallen "tremendously" since her earliest efforts, and she expects that trend to continue.
And, according to Dosier, "Bricks are just the beginning." The same process could be used to create many items currently made of concrete, such as paving stones and cinder blocks.
The company is riding a wave of excitement and interest generated by first place finishes in two recent high-profile contests: the Cradle to Cradle Innovation Challenge in November (which included a prize of $125,000) and the Dutch Postcode Lottery Green Challenge in September (which included a prize of 500,000 euros – about $680,000).
The increased exposure and the incoming funds add fuel to Dosier's fire. She said she's working 16 to 18 hours a day, "building and growing (the company) as quickly as possible. The challenge is fighting the clock. The science is here; the goal now is to get this out in the world."
If she has any doubts, she doesn't show them.
"We have a goal and a mission to get this in the world successfully," she said. "It will happen."

Which areas are looking for new grad nurses?
- 0Sep 24, '13 by swansonplaceI am a new grad, and am willing to relocate to an area that is in need of a new grad. Does anyone know of any areas that are looking for new grad nurses? I am particularly interested in nursing residency programs.
- 0Sep 25, '13 by soontobenurse_84I have heard that Texas is a great spot for new grads from out of state-especially the Dallas area. One of my coworkers mother live there and they are building a ton of new hospitals. I googled it and did at least find that part to be true. Hope this helps any.
- 0Sep 25, '13 by swansonplaceThank you.
- 0Sep 25, '13 by not.done.yet GuideBzzzzt. Wrong. DFW is SATURATED with new grads. Hospitals hire new grads twice a year, through internships only. Competition is stunningly fierce. Hundreds of applicants for each individual new grad slot. There are a ton of schools here cranking out new grads every few months and not nearly enough spots to employ them all.
Nurses with two or more years of experience who either have a BSN or are actively pursuing one have their choice of jobs. New grads? Nope. Very tough market. The hospitals are growing, it is true. But nobody really wants the new grads, or at least not in the masses that are being churned out by the local schools, let alone those flocking here from out of state thinking this is the new grad mecca.
Do NOT move ANYWHERE without a firm job offer with salary negotiation finished and a firm start date in writing.
- 0Sep 26, '13 by swansonplaceDoes anyone else know of any areas that are interested in new grads?
- 1Sep 28, '13 by Concerto_in_CGenerally speaking, large metropolitan areas have the most saturated nursing markets. Here in Midwest Chicago is one of the worst large cities in the country to presently look for a job. I assume this is because nursing degrees are selling like hot rolls, so a metropolitan area that used to have 30 nursing schools, now has 45 nursing schools because running healthcare schools is lucrative business. The area becomes saturated with new grads who have nowhere to go, and they will pound every medical centers with thousands of applications per day.
Once I moved about 100 miles from Chicago, I found out hospitals in areas that are more rural are eager to hire new grads (our hospital hired lots of them), but alas, if you grew up in a big city, you probably want to stay in the city, because that's where night life and friends are. So I guess for a majority of big city kids relocating to another part of the country is not an option.
Nursing homes are always hiring, but if you have a BSN and want to work in acute care some day (I think most BSNs do!) accepting a nursing home position could be career suicide. Also, most of those nursing home companies suck and they work their nursing staff to death (13-15 patients per nurse) claiming they are "low acuity" which is complete b.s.
If the nursing home resident is on the call light all day because she's disabled, that's a high acuity situation. If they poo in their pants all day that's a high acuity scenario because somebody has to go in there to diaper them. A low acuity patient is mostly independent. My surgical patients at the hospital are more independent than nursing home residents. In nursing homes, you have a lot of badly disabled people who are total care...Last edit by Concerto_in_C on Sep 28, '13
