BOXLEY, Ark. -- On a recent Sunday morning in the Buffalo River Valley, the music of nature blended with voices of the faithful. At Boxley Baptist Church, local residents worship in a relatively new sanctuary. Their often-photographed old church building nearby is now their community hall, which is almost all that's left of Boxley. The 174-year-old building stands as an icon to residents here.
Congress created the Buffalo National River 40 years ago, and generated a lot of controversy doing it. Landowners whose families had lived there for decades suddenly were told they'd have to move.
Back then, the promise of millions of tourists coming to float the Buffalo seemed farfetched. It has taken years for harsh feelings to go away, and many, especially people who've always lived here, still have mixed feelings.
Family and faith and suspicion of outsiders and their regulations run deep along the Buffalo River.
"We were never used to rules on our farm," said Nina Lee Fowler, a lifelong resident.
"A lot of people just didn't want their land taken at all," said John Paul Hammerschmidt, a former congressman from northwest Arkansas.
When the federal government came to this valley decades ago with big plans to build flood control dams, people either welcomed the idea or fought it.
"We were satisfied with the way it was. We had a good living here and we wanted it left just like it was," said Euldean Clark, another longtime resident.
"The government, I don't need to say anything else, because it was very, very controversial," said Hammerschmidt.
"There were a lot of hard feelings, a lot," said Clark.
In Washington, D.C., they dropped plans to build dams. Then they created a plan for America's first national river. That effort was largely led by Hammerschmidt. Last month, Buffalo National River officials honored him. He had just turned 90 years old as the national park turned 40.
Hammerschmidt grew up near Pruitt, a little town on the Buffalo. As a congressman, his fond memories of the river and the valley guided him. He didn't want it to disappear. He clearly recalls the animosity as local people debated plans for the government takeover.
"They'd say, 'John Paul, why do you want to take my land?'" Hammerschmidt recalled recently. "They were all our friends, and it was very difficult to pass that bill because they were totally against it."
As forecast, new opportunities to make money came into this valley. Tourism mostly replaced farming. Many have prospered meeting the needs of a million and a half visitors each year.
Ben Fruehauf is a former mayor of Gilbert, population 13.
"It's where people want to get away and see a little bit of the past," said Fruehauf.
The river is just a block away from the 111-year-old Gilbert General Store, which Fruehauf owns. For the past 35 years, he's sold mostly tourist supplies and souvenirs and has rented canoes and cabins.
Fruehauf says Gilbert survives because of the national river.
"It's 40 yards to the river," he said. "If it wasn't a national river, we would have dried up and gone away a long time ago."
He says the Buffalo's remote beauty is a strong attraction to vacationers and retirees. They spend money here. New businesses includes a café, a new post office, an RV park that just opened this spring, and homes remodeled and converted to bed and breakfasts.
Up and down the Buffalo, a few people harbor lasting resentment. Mostly, however, 40 years downstream from the creation of the Buffalo National River, a more harmonious flow has emerged.
'It is a good thing, but there's always the good with the bad,"
"It's bittersweet."
"As far as I'm concerned, I'm settled with it."
"I think it's turned out beautifully."Copyright © 2014, The Morning Call

ispconfig 3
I've looked at most existing FOSS web control panel applications and I find ISPConfig to be one of the best (easily the best in terms of user interface and such). Though it has some drawbacks, especially not everything being virtual.
Unfortunately the drawback of ISPConfig, as with almost all other control panel applications, is that it is not distributed. I've read that ISPConfig 3 will be able to manage multiple servers and I was very happy to hear this. But then, on another thread, I read that it will not use LDAP.
How will ISPConfig 3 handle authentication? Will you have separate users on every machine? Would this not defeat the very purpose of handling multiple servers? I read that you're not going to be using LDAP because it is too difficult for most users to set up. I rather disagree; it is no more or less difficult than setting up a complex mail system, and can be done easily with the proper documentation.
The only control panel software that I know that handles distributed authentication and multiple servers is ISPMan. Unfortunately, it has a number of drawbacks:
- project is currently not very active
- very poor release management: release versions have severe bugs, one is supposed to use "cvs update" to get new minor versions.
- very poor documentation
- tedious user interface
It does use LDAP, and the functionality is mostly there (except for database / phpmyadmin integration), but its pretty dead and the user interface sucks.
One advantage of ISPMan is that changes are transaction-based and can be committed as a batch, and are propagated to other servers by an agent. This works really well, and I'd love to see this in ISPConfig.
-- tel
ISPConfig supports distributed authentication, LDAP is not the only way to handle this. ISPConfig uses mysql as central authentication source. The data can be either replicated trough mysql master > slave replication or a mysql cluster or trough the builtin replication in ISPConfig.
All changes in ISPConfig 3 are stored in a transaction log and can be rolled back or replicated to other systems. ISPConfig also supports to configure stand by systems with identical configuration.
ISPConfig 3 is completely modular, based on plugins and events. If you want to have your users in ldap, just write a plugin for it that listens on the user_insert and user_update event and inserts the users into ldap then.
You should have a deeper look into ISPConfig to fully understand it before you judge that it is not enterprise ready.
I looked at ISPMan, the functionality is cool but the interface is horrible. The ISPConfig interface, on the other hand, is quite nice, but ISPConfig 2 is not distributed and not enough is virtualized for my needs. It also seems like a dead project. I was horrified when I saw the bugs in the 1.2 release and that I was expected to CVS update to get a newer version in the 1.2 tree (no further minor releases were made).
Do you have a more recent VMWare image that I could take a look at? The one I found in another post is almost 3 years old. Does anyone use it in a (semi-)production environment?
-- tel
Please be aware that ISPCnfig 3 does not has its final interface design yet, it is just some kind of development design at the moment. ISPConfig 3 is fully themable and the interface uses ayax.
There has been much progess since this beta release. I recommend that you update the vmware image with the following commands:
cd /tmp
Where are we now? When do you expect a release?
-- tel
ISPConfig 3 will be released as stable version when its ready. Take a look at the roadmap in the bugtracker if you want to know the current status:
Sorry but that is a useless response. First it is 2 months, and 6 months later it will be released when it is ready?
What does that mean?
1) you don't know
2) a year
3) two years
etc. Don't get me wrong, this is a promising product. But some of your (non-paying) customers would like to know when to expect at least a RC (non-beta) release. It should be expected even from open source projects to be able to estimate how long something will take. We all know it'll take longer than we expect (it always does).
Are you still adding new features?
Are you at a code freeze yet, from which point bugs will be fixed and no new features will be added?
Please understand, I waited setting up a server some time ago because I wanted a distributed management tool and you said it'd take 2 months; now it's been six and still no go. "When it's ready" is not an answer. "A year from now" or "six months from now" is an answer. Tell me what to expect, if it takes too long I'll move on and find something else.
-- tel
If you would have looked at the bugtracker as I suggested above you would have been able to answer the questions yourself.
If none of the bugs that you find there is critical for you, the use the svn version. I know poeple using parts of ISPConfig 3 for over a yaer in production, it depends just on what you need.
I will not publish a release date for the final version, it will be relaesed when the last bugs are fixed.

The Engagement Gap - THE HR challenge for 2010
One of the most interesting issues in this field is the imminent "Engagement Gap". What I mean here is that there is an increasingly wider divide between the expectations of organisations and their employees. More and more employees, driven by a desire to be more involved in the workplace (Gen Y especially) often supported by Web 2.0 technology, are seeing their aspirations for corporate involvement dashed on the corporate rocks. This gap is likely to become more acute as the Conservative Government's drive for efficiency takes bite in the UK.
My advice to employers? - get on the engagement agenda before it is too late.
If you need any evidence just look at what is going on at British Airways

I thought this place was going to be great, as it was close to my office, the Town Center, and was relatively Read Morecheap compared to others in close proximity. Let's just say you get what you pay for. Other tenants are loud and have no control over their children. Blaring Latin music, screaming and out of control children, awful neighbors, and homeless men that try to live in the building's extra space were all present.

Decided to finally give up on this **bleep** bag of a company... But only after:
I guess driver's license, social security card, 2 utility bills, and multiple phone calls can not verify who the hell you are. Hopefully none of you get shafted by PSECU like I have! EX Fico score isn't worth the hassle of sub-standard practices. I guess that's what happens when you have employees working for a CU at minimum wage.
I am sorry you had such a negative experience.

i just got done jumping through hoops for them. i thought it was never going to end. just the other day they sent me an email stating 'welcome to psecu.' guess i'll count my blessings. sorry to hear you went through all that work for nothing.
02-01-2011 07:06 AM - edited 02-01-2011 07:06 AM
While I'm sorry to hear you had such a hassle, this is the sort of thing that could have been cleared up in 10 minutes if you went to a branch so I assume you aren't local. Given that you aren't local, my guess is the only reason you were trying to join PSECU was for the EX score.
So ultimately, blame EX for making it so stupidly hard to get a FICO score from them. PSECU may have eff'd up in your case, but they're mostly set up to handle local business and apparently the swell of out-of-state friends-of-PA-parks has been a bit much for them. Sad, but understandable.
myFICO is the consumer division of FICO. Since its introduction 20 years ago, the FICO® Score has become a global standard for measuring credit risk in the banking, mortgage, credit card, auto and retail industries. 90 of the top 100 largest U.S. financial institutions use the FICO Score to make consumer credit decisions.>> About myFICO

Drew powers Red Sox over Orioles
|Boston Red Sox's Stephen Drew watches the flight of his two- run home run against the Baltimore Orioles in the sixth inning of a baseball game on Saturday, July 27, 2013, in Baltimore. The Red Sox won 7-3. (AP Photo/Gail Burton)
BALTIMORE — Stephen Drew hit two homers, drove in five runs and scored three times to power the Boston Red Sox past the Baltimore Orioles, 7-3, on Saturday night.
Shane Victorino also connected for the Red Sox, who won for only the fourth time in 10 games to remain a half-game behind first-place Tampa Bay in the AL East. Boston stood atop the AL East for 60 straight days before falling into second on Friday night.
Red Sox slugger David Ortiz was ejected from the game in the seventh inning by home plate umpire Tim Timmons for arguing a called strike during an at-bat that ended in a strikeout.
Ortiz destroyed the covers of two dugout phones with his bat, then charged onto the field and had to be restrained by manager John Farrell and bench coach Torey Lovullo.

Then, Rivera-Worley and the two other passengers heard pilot Bryan Scott Taylor say, "I've got an instrument failure."
Taylor's artificial horizon, a device that tells a pilot whether the aircraft is flying with wings level or banked, suddenly didn't seem to be working properly. He tapped it again.
"See?" he said, noting the condensation under the glass. "But that's OK. I can land with these others."
Suddenly, with a roller coaster's stomach-wrenching force, the airplane fell into a dive. Taylor banked hard, pushing Rivera-Worley against the airplane wall. The rest of the instruments, the ones that literally could tell Taylor up from down while flying blind, are out now, too, he announced. The airplane banked forcefully.
Without instruments and in zero visibility, the passengers and pilot had no point of reference. Taylor and everyone else on board became disoriented. It felt like they were climbing. It felt as if they were falling. For a few seconds after a hard turn, it seemed they were recovering. Then they dove again, hard. Taylor couldn't control the airplane. They were going to crash. The other backseat passenger next to Rivera-Worley, John Scott, unbuckled his seat belt and leaned his head and shoulders into the cockpit offering Taylor help.
Rivera-Worley also leaned forward, suddenly sick with fear. She laid her head against Scott's back and extended one arm in front of him so that she could hold onto Sarah, her 17-year-old daughter, in the front right seat. The airplane continued to buffet violently. Rivera-Worley held onto her daughter's arm. Sarah glanced back and looked into her mother's eyes, acknowledging the gesture before putting her head down. Rivera-Worley's mind raced. She prayed to herself hysterically.
"Oh God, please don't let this happen. Please come to our help...Don't let us die like this. Don't let us crash and burn. Don't take my baby daughter...Anything but this."
They didn't know it, but a vacuum pump installed in the 1969 Piper Cherokee 16 years before had stopped working. It powered two important instruments Taylor was using to keep the airplane level and pointed in the right direction. The sky around him was as dark as the swampy, expansive Lake Pontchartrain below. He needed those instruments, the artificial horizon and the directional gyroscope, to climb up out of the cloud cover or drop below it where he could see the ground and use his senses to level the plane and land it.
The New Orleans air traffic controller told Taylor he missed the airport. Taylor radioed that he didn't know whether he was climbing, then quickly realized he had lost control of the airplane and was about to crash. When the Piper Cherokee hit Lake Pontchartrain, the impact ripped it open. Water poured into the cabin, and the airplane began sinking to the bottom.
Rivera-Worley would first fight for her life to escape the sinking wreck and then spend hours in the water. Then she and the pilot's father would begin a fight with those they say are responsible for the crash and many other similar accidents--most notably the federal government. They say the Federal Aviation Administration has not done enough to warn the public about the danger of vacuum pump failures nor done anything to fix the problem that is known to be causing small airplanes to crash.
"Nobody in their right mind takes such risks," Rivera-Worley says. "Had anyone told me that there was a vital instrument on this airplane that my daughter and I were going to get on that can fail and is known to fail without warning, I wouldn't have gotten on the plane. Good grief."
Before boarding the aircraft on a quick trip to visit Tulane University in New Orleans, Taylor, Scott, Rivera-Worley and her daughter, Sarah, had no idea of the risk they were taking. They didn't know that the vacuum pumps that operate a small airplane's vital instruments had failed without warning hundreds of times before. Most times when a pump fails, pilots can see the topography and real horizon to land the airplane. Since 1983, however, at least 43 airplanes have crashed and 86 people have died in accidents attributed to vacuum pump failures in cloudy conditions, according to National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) records.
But on an early Wednesday evening in April 1998, when Rivera-Worley's jovial group sat at a round table at the Sweetwater Grill and Tavern in Denton, they had no way of knowing the danger. The group included Rivera-Worley, who was 44 at the time, her husband, Lee Worley, and their two children, Ernest Worley and Sarah Worley, and John Scott. Scott, 34, was a Tulane graduate, a Denton County executive and friend of the family. He was anxious to show Sarah around the Tulane campus.
Sarah was athletic, with long, thick, dark curly hair, sharp, slightly Hispanic features like her mother's and a healthy glow about her. The popular senior at Ryan High School in Denton was determined to go to Tulane despite her mother's concerns about finances.

"Series Has Lost Its Way..."
I don't know what happened to this story. I really enjoyed The Lost Gate and anxiously awaited book 2. Unfortunately The Gate Thief was a major let down.
This book really makes me wonder if OSC skipped over his teen years because it seems like he has no idea what teenagers are like. It's not as if his characters act like adults as some bad YA authors' protagonists do, they don't really act like any human being I've ever met. It's as if an android tried to write about human emotions based off of observations alone.
Danny North is obsessed with kissing girls, but also has some weird sexual repression/female purity issues going on. It doesn't help that all the teen girls in his life are walking wombs in waiting. They don't just want to have sex, they desperately want to get pregnant. Granted I'm no expert on the sex drives of teen girls, but I've never seen a single girl act like the girls in this novel do. It's just really weird, not exactly creepy just mind bogglingly odd and not normal. I don't know if he has strong religious beliefs about sex for procreation only that forces him to phrase teen sexual desire in this manner, but it's just strange and divorced from reality. To make it worse, the story spends an inordinately large amount of time exploring these feelings. It's true teens spend an inordinately large amount of time thinking about and discussing sex/relationships, but not like this.
Aside from poor representation of teen life, the rest of the story is lack luster compared to The Lost Gate. I lost interest in caring about Danny, Wad/Loki, and their version of the universe. The story does progress well enough, and OSC still knows how to tell a story with proper pacing. I just found myself struggling even to want the good characters to succeed. There were none of the endearing shenanigans of The Lost Gate(ie the Walmart scene). They talk about Danny being a trickster, but he doesn't do anything deserving of that title.
This story wasn't a wasted credit. The setting and magic system are interesting and fresh enough to keep me entertained. However I will have to carefully read reviews of book 3 before I decide to buy it.
"Glad I Stopped Listening to the Dissenters"
I'll keep this short since there are plenty of great in-depth reviews of this series already. I just want to share my experience procrastinating on this purchase in case someone else is in the same boat. For a few years I avoided buying into this series due to it's size as well as some poor reviews which seemed consistent in their criticisms. Well I broke down and decided to give it a shot. I now feel foolish for avoiding it so long.
I've read up to book 4 and have been very impressed and entertained so far. I didn't find the authors ideas to be derivative as some reviews stated. There are some themes common to all fantasy, but the plot was original and well thought out. The setting and universe are familiar to fantasy fans, but in no way a rip off of any existing series. I've really enjoyed this series up to this point and would recommend it to any fantasy fans. Granted I have read from many people that the series has some low points, but improves in the end. I can forgive this considering how much I've enjoyed books 1-4.
So if you're on the fence about diving into the Wheel of Time series, take my advice and just do it.
"Entertaining Read, Not Quite Exceptional."
I'm a big fan of Michael J. Sullivan. Which of course means I love the Riyria based books. When I saw Hollow World come up for sale I had to buy it in spite of the very different subject matter. I wish I could say I enjoyed Hollow World as much as any of the Riyria books, but don't think this is quite up to that level of quality.
I like how different in nature this protagonist is from any of his previous main characters. He is a good man, but has some moral flaws and past regrets that color his current personality. That being said, he lacks the charm and charisma of Royce or Hadrian. If you don't know who I'm talking about you need to stop reading this and check out the authors other series immediately. I guess I found him a little boring overall.
Although MJS's other works are fantasy, I also enjoy Sci-Fi and was excited to see how he handled the genre. Since he's so adept at writing epic tales I thought this book would have a much grander story arch. In reality, it's more of a standard thriller with an added Sci-Fi dimension. This by itself is a fine premise for a book, I was just expecting it to be more exceptional considering MJS's talents.
What did I like about the book? Well the future "Hollow World" setting is quite thought provoking. He doesn't shy away from envisioning a wildly divergent evolutionary path
that we could take while showing how some basic traits/failings of humanity will always follow us. I found his world thought provoking but also slightly repulsive in it's order/homogeneity. Months later I still catch myself preforming thought experiments on the society he created. It's very interesting to think about how life would be like in that environment
I'm trying not to give the story away, but I found the main plot device to be rather outlandish. While story was told with proper pacing and excitement, I had a hard time buying some people's motivations and actions.
All in all, I'm happy I used a credit on this audiobook. I don't feel it's wasted at all. Of course I can think of several better books in this genre which I would recommend before Hollow World. If you're a MJS fan, you might want to read this regardless. Just keep in mind it's no Riyria Revelations.
"Worth Every Penny"
Nice little free story from Michael J Sullivan. There isn't a lot that can be done in such a short time, but I enjoyed hearing it. It made me realize how much I miss having a new Royce and Hadrian tale to read. I wouldn't pay for this story alone(due to length not quality). Of course, since it's free what have you got to lose?
"Action/Adventure Tale that Grows into Epic Fantasy"
The Riyria Revelations series begins as enjoyable if not light adventure fantasy, but grows into much more. The story initially centers on a pair of elite thieves for hire who are renowned for doing the impossible. Following one ill advised job their lives become much more complicated as they're swept into the middle of an ancient struggle for the fate of humanity. As the story progresses you are introduced to more characters and a complex intriguing world emerges.
Michael J. Sullivan has a real talent for feeding you a lot of detail mixed in with action so you don't feel burdened by the number of names or individual histories. While the characters and world are well developed at no point did I have to study the story to make sure I didn't miss anything(ie GRRM). There are no long winded descriptions or data dumps but at the end you realize how much you've learned about the history of the world.
The author strikes a nice balance between moral ambiguity and an overall sense of right and wrong. While no one would claim that a pair of professional thieves are model citizens it's clear that they are good people when it really counts. In fact it's somewhat refreshing to read a fantasy series that doesn't center on backstabbing politics. There are evil characters and betrayals of course, but this isn't one of those stories where you feel conflicted rooting for the main characters. You really feel as though you get to know the cast of characters and grow to love many of them.
If I have to admit some criticisms it would be based on a few of the romantic elements. While he does a great job with some of the character's relationships(ie Royce/Gwen), some of the series' early love interests seemed a little forced. I found this improved as the the story goes on so don't worry.
These books are so much fun they feel much shorter than they really are. Be careful, the hours fly by as you listen. Do yourself a favor and give it a listen. I think any fan of fantasy will really fall into these books.
"Fun Mystery With A Sci-fi/Horror Twist"
This book was a whole lot of fun. I don't want to be too descriptive and give away any spoilers but the story follows a man who moves into a new apartment building in LA that seems too good to be true. Well it is...
The protagonist slowly begins to notice an increasing number of quirks and small oddities in his apartment and the building as a whole. The story centers on how he and a select group of neighbors explore these eccentricities.
Did I mention that the fellow apartment dwellers are just as odd and eccentric? Learning about the characters and seeing them develop is almost as fun as the main mystery. I won't introduce them here and ruin the fun, but they're all interesting without being so odd that you can't identify and empathize with them.
This isn't so much a mystery that gives you clues in hopes that you can figure it out before the end as many crime mysteries are. You sort of fall into the story and the mystery is a current that pulls you along. Don't over think it, just enjoy the ride!
"Brilliant Setting, Boring Book"
Ok, so I understand this book is cherished by countless Sci-Fi fans and is considered a masterpiece, although as a whole its really not that good. But, but, Its DUNE, THE DUNE you say. The book universally adored by legions of rabid fans, a "classic" even. Well, sit down, we need to have a talk...
First off, Frank Herbert is a brilliant writer. He created an amazing, intricately detailed universe full of wonder and inhabited by equally interesting cultures in constant conflict . Unfortunately that's where the brilliance ends. Its not very accessible, and frankly, the story just isn't that interesting. I've been hearing about how great this book is for years, so the disappointment is all the more depressing.
Herbert created a great setting and wasted it by focusing on the inner musings of every single character ad nauseum. The vast amount of character development overshadows the interesting parts of the plot to the point that the brief bits of excitement are constantly paused just to explain what everyone is thinking at every turn. I'm sad to say, most of these peoples thoughts aren't particularly interesting. Now before you discount me as philistine who needs constant action, I love Tolkien, George RR Martin, Neal Stephenson, and many other "long winded" authors.
If your a Dune lover, please don't hate me. I get that this holds a special place in the hearts of many. Honestly, a lot of people who's opinions I cherish love this book, but I kept asking myself if I was reading the same Dune as everyone else. I can't recommend this to anyone who didn't grow up with the tale, but who cares I'm clearly in the minority here.
"Wow this is a Great Listen"
If you're a fan of modern fantasy you need to get this book. This tale follows a young farm boy Arlen, as he grows up in a brutal world tormented by demons who rule the night. The people of this world struggle to use every last minute of daylight before fleeing nightly to the safe haven of magical wards. Mr. Brett has created a vivid and deep world that's both touching and terrifying.
The perils of night and relative safety of day add a tension to this world that shapes the lives and culture of all it's inhabitants. For as long as anyone can remember families have huddled fearfully in their homes listening to the screams of demons, or worse, the screams of those caught out in the night as the demons rise from the earth. There are tales of days long ago when people knew of killing wards that could allow humans to retake the night, but these wards have long been lost to time. Some day they say the deliverer will come to teach people of the long forgotten wards and lead them to regain the night, but there is little hope in these old stories.
If any of that sounds interesting, you won't be disappointed. Not only is this an exciting book full of action, but the author also explores in detail the effects this existence would have on it's inhabitants. The many characters in this book are all unique and well developed, and you grow to love most of them. There is a true sense of empathy with each person in this story. Even when you hate a character you can understand how they got to that point.
Don't waste any more time reading reviews and download this now.
**One warning, there are some graphic scenes of violence and sexual abuse in this series. If you're a prude or are easily offended you might want to stay away.**
Highly Recommended!!
"Clever Witty Sleeping Pill"
I've tried and failed to finish this audiobook on several occasions, and its not for lack of trying. I stuck it out until I was at least halfway through(the 2nd time) so I believe I made it past the "slow beginning". I'm normally a fan of very long books, and I hate to give up on a story but this one just falls short for me.
If Jane Austin and Charles Dickens had a child who wrote fantasy books, I think those books would be a lot like this. This is more a book of manners than a plot driven story. The writing is very clever and witty, but so much of the story is centered on stuffy gentlemen and ladies discussing magic in drawing rooms and parlors. Don't get me wrong, the writing is very clever and witty. You can tell author has great talent, she just focuses that talent in the wrong areas of the story.
Judging by the other reviews a lot of people love this book. Personally I don't see the attraction. I'll admit there is some amusing dialog and the setting is well thought out, but that only goes so far. Don't get me wrong this is a very well written book from a talented author, but some witty repartee can only carry a novel so far.
For me this was a wasted credit. Listen to the sample before purchasing. It just goes to show that one person's masterpiece is another's snoozefest.
"Interesting Modern Fantasy/Mythology Book"
I've listed to the first two books of the Dresden Files. I like the magical detective aspect in a modern world. Jim Butcher pulls this story off without the cheezyness factor that a lot of modern fantasy hybrids have.
That being said, the two books I read aren't my favorite. Harry Dresden the main character gets himself into a lot of easily avoidable trouble that makes me very frustrated with the books. It seems like the author has trouble generating conflict and excitement without Harry making predictable bone headed moves.
Butcher has created an engaging and fun world that blends mythology magic and modern day Chicago. Harry acts a lot like a crotchety old man, although I don't think he's supposed to be that old. The grumpy old man act is a mix of annoying old school ideas and endearing genuine kind hearted eccentricity. In the end you can't help but like Harry Dresden even if he's a pain sometimes.
I like magical world and characters much more than the predicable plots in the two books I read. That being said, plenty of people seem to love these books.
Worth a credit, but not one of my favorites. I haven't decided if I'll buy more books from the series.

Court to decide if Nashua Historical Society president should be reinstated
But attorney Kevin Devine, who represents the historical society, said the board of directors has extensive authority to make decisions about managing the organization, including whether to remove an elected officer."A lot of organizations have bylaws with specific rules on removing elected officers," said Devine. "However, the bylaws for the Nashua Historical Society are silent on this issue."
Devine and Murphy have different interpretations of "Roberts Rules," and it will be up to Nicolosi to sort through and decide which side comes closest to upholding the intent of the bylaws and the historical society.
According to Devine, Terry Knowles of the Charitable Trust Unit has found nothing improper about the society's system of storing and cataloging artifacts.
Romano was hoping the Charitable Trust Unit would also review the board's decision oust her, but the state refused.
Thomas Balch, a Virginia-based registered parliamentarian and one of a team of editors who oversaw the publication of the last two editions of "Robert's Rules," was hired by the plaintiffs to review the case. He has submitted a brief to the court that supports Romano.
"The basic trust in Roberts Rules involves protecting the rights of members, the rights of majority decisions and the rights of due process."

1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Hospodar
|1911 Encyclopædia Britannica, Volume 13
|See also Hospodar on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
HOSPODAR, a term of Slavonic origin, meaning "lord" (Russ. gospodar). It is a derivative of gospod, "lord," and is akin to gosudar, which primarily means "sovereign," and is now also used in Russia as a polite form of address, equivalent to "sir." The pronunciation as hospodar of a word written gospodar in all but one of the Slavonic languages which retain the Cyrillic alphabet is not, as is sometimes alleged, due to the influence of Little Russian, but to that of Church Slavonic. In both of these g is frequently pronounced h. In Little Russian the title hospodar is specially applied to the master of a house or the head of a family. The rulers of Walachia and Moldavia were styled hospodars from the 15th century to 1866. At the end of this period, as the title had been held by many vassals of Turkey, its retention was considered inconsistent with the growth of Rumanian independence. It was therefore discarded in favor of domn (dominus, "lord"), which continued to be the official princely title up to the proclamation of a Rumanian kingdom in 1881.

Good hotel if not 5 starfrom Stephen_Lloyd
Okay hotel - very poor servicefrom geoffandclare
Lovely setting, Hotel requires TLCfrom sharon5769
Good value for moneyfrom A TripAdvisor Member
good overall stayfrom A TripAdvisor Member
Getting betterfrom Michael_Spender
Not what photo shows - Construction and limited activities but...great beachfrom BrassBryan
There are two pools and towels can be rented for free using your towel card.Activity here is limited.The buildings and furniture are old.I feel that its not worth the money except for the beach.
Not what you would expectfrom A TripAdvisor Member
Rooms are shabby dated and not as clean as they should be - several guests I spoke to had moved rooms because of damp and broken furniture.
Beware local holidays as the hotel is popular with Malaysian families who take over the hotel and pool to the exclusion of tourists
A bit of paradisefrom 454545
Most charming of all is the Malay-style restaurant which is very close to the sea. The breakfast buffet is great, but the best time to dine there is in the evening when the tide comes in and one hears the waves breaking just meters from the dining table.
Nice and sunny placefrom moschino24_98
Top Local Tips for Kuantan
curry mee the curry mee at the shop house is nice. Except the shop is abit dark & old
Best if you have your transport The good thing about Hyatt is that it's not too far from town, and from Cherating or Kemaman, which means you can enjoy your Starbucks, but also take a drive and see the outskirts and fishing village, and more importantly enjoy the original keropok lekor and satar (local delicacies)
Busy at weekends If arriving at the weekend beware that the beach is a favorite location for locals (dont blame them its nice enough) - traffic and queues near the hotel can last for 15 mins or so. Watch out for the monkeys just inside or outside the hotel carpark entrance- dont feed and Yes they bite!

Mount this chrome spice shelf (hardware included) on your kitchen wall or inside your pantry and you'll have added space for jars of spices and seasonings. It holds six standard-sized jars (those shown not included), and has a rail that runs around the middle so they stay secure. Manufactured by Better Housewares

I agree Ryan is struggling but everyone in the tnenis world is being really impatient with these young players. They're not near the peak of their powers yet so there's plenty of time.
The pace of Dimitrov's rise seems perfect to me. He's been around for a while now, starting building steadier results towards the end of the year and now it is just a matter of time before he makes a breakthrough against one of the top 4. Today he looked very impressive, his backhand looks to me like it will be better than Federer's - both the slice and top spin - and there's no doubt he will make top 10.
In January I predicted a Wimbledon quarterfinal for him this year, I'm going to take a punt on him winning it next year. Must be worth a bet with the odds as they will be right now.

JF Ptak Science Books Quick Post Part of the Uninentional Absurdist series
I've catalogued a number of pamphlets on this blog that are on the Outsider/Found-Surreal/Uninentional-Absurdist spectrum, people who reveal their insights into the un-insightable, or their outsights into the great Outside world that is unseeable because it is unseen, or unknowable, or non-existent. Sometimes it is all-existent, though the insights bearing upon the issue are the unknowable, non-retrievable, self-referential, private-logic and private-language communications. Sometimes there is insight in that, but usually not.
This day's installment has the feel and look of something from the 19th century, but is it comes from 1912, and the rants and razor-vision is localized on Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson. I'm not sure what the author's point was, because it is all fairly circular, a circle of words filled with a another circle of words, and who knows really where they go.
And the full front page of one of the pamphlets:

American Idol winner Phillip Phillips was in the MUCH studio yesterday to perform two songs from his hit debut album The View From The Side of the Moon and to chat with New.Music.Live. host Lauren Toyota in front of a live audience. While the conversation included everything from Phillips recent tour schedule to his attempt at a Canadian accent (check out his 'aboot' reference in the clip), the topic quickly turned to his feelings towards American Idol.
When asked about the new judges, including Nicki Minaj, Mariah Carey and Keith Urban, Phillips said "It's definitely different. It's a new season. I'm done, I don't have to worry about it." But will he be watching Idol when it premieres in January? Find out in the clip after the jump!

Today we finished "Freak the Mighty." I think we were all sad for so many reasons! What a great book! We will have a test on the book tomorrow.
Students learned their 7th "thinking map" today, the Multi-Flow...One more introduction next week! We will continue to integrate these maps into our curriculumn.
Wednesday we will begin a review of Literary Terms, and work with students in developing a study Guide for the 9 week assessment October 16th.
We will also begin Stienbeck, " The Pearl. Students have been amazing, working hard at everything we ask!
Scary stories...We are creating mood, tone, and style in Creative Writing. What better time to do it than Halloween? We will have a contest and see who can scare us the most with their electrifying use of imagery!
Students will also create their own rubrics based on the Power Point notes they take in class. We will continue to look at and discuss various types of writing.
We will begin to look at titles for our magazine, discuss layout, and entry forms.
10th grade....We are still on a journey with William Golding! Deep in the jungle of "Lord of the Flies." We are analyzing our own minds, and the amazing literature of the allegory.
With each allegory Golding gives us something to relate to in today's current events. We are using the world around us to tie into the microcosm of the world the children set on fire.
As we continue to wrap up our novel we will have a few more quizzes, survival manual, and 9 week assessment on October 16.

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

Save the Dates for Arts Summit 2013
Pencil us in for Friday and Saturday, June 21 and 22 and plan to attend Arts Summit 2013 at the Roundhouse Community Arts and Recreation Centre.
The theme for this year's Summit will be "Towards A Cultural Policy Framework" as we explore the ways and means for developing a comprehensive cultural policy for BC and launch a one-year initiative with the goal of returning to Arts Summit 2014 with a final document for discussion and ratification.
Our Honourary Chair for Arts Summit 2013 is Nini Baird, who forty years ago chaired the Arts Access 1973 conference, out of which came the creation of today's BC Arts Council and our provincial Cultural Services Branch.
So save the dates and plan to join us. Further details will be announced shortly and Summit registration will open in March.

Great Post
|I have been planning to visit the Arts Summit 2013 for sure. I am glad to hear that Nini Baird is in the chairs for this summit. I am not going to miss this opportunity for sure. I have already bookmarked this site for sure. visit here

My butt and thighs are sore today!! :). Good sign. Think I'll just do some stretching tonight- slim&limber. Maybe the ab one too.
Love the new, organized, goal-ey me :D
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.
- The Robots.
My butt and thighs are sore today!! :). Good sign. Think I'll just do some stretching tonight- slim&limber. Maybe the ab one too.
Love the new, organized, goal-ey me :D
I think (hope) this will be accomplished along with "work out more consistently" goal. I'm hoping for this summer!! I'm off to a good start, I just hope I can maintain :)
I really like mint, but I'm still working out all the details on how to make it the best for what I need it to do. I budget amounts to be put into savings but mint has the transfer out, and the transfer in, so it looks like it's zero. I think I read you can exclude the transfers into the savings, and only include the transfers out of checking, so I'll have to keep playing with it :)
Things are really improving with this goal. The apps I've gotten really help me stay on track and be less forgetful. I love my iPod :)
Things are really improving with this goal. The apps I've gotten really help me stay on track and be less forgetful. I love my iPod :)
So I was down on my knees cleaning Charlie's cage tonight, and holy crap was my butt burning!!
So I worked out again tonight. I swear it wasn't this hard last time!! I did bum bum and now I have spaghetti legs!! Waiting to recover and then a shower.
Added my water intake to epic win, hopefully that will help me keep drinking enough water! Looking forward to results!!
Just ordered a catalog. Need to start planning it out :)
Wow. It's been too long since I worked out! I'm a mess! Tonight I did cardio axe and I'm wiped! Forgot how fun it is though :)
Looking forward to looser clothes again!
Applied for graduation in the spring! Can't wait to be done!
I should look this up on YouTube!
I told Tom that I want to go to Hawaii, he said maybe for a honeymoon :)
Set up all of my accounts and budgets on mint.con today. Also set up recurring items on epic win to categorize the transactions every day, as well as review bi monthly and monthly.
I'm excited to see what 2011 brings!
Start to add an entry into epic win when bills are due. This way I won't forget as easily!
This has already improved with the help of these cool apps!
This is ongoing – I have made progress since I got the iPod and can utilize the really good apps for helping me stay on track. I'm off from work this week so hopefully I can focus on home, then next week focus on work.
I need to get on an efficient schedule before school starts again!!
Trip booked for Sep 2011!!
Will graduate spring 2011 – 2 classes to go!
