WDW after makes more sense...to us.
One of the many things I see on the DCL threads is that people enjoy going to WDW first then the cruise instead of WDW after the cruise. We booked our first Cruise/WDW trip for this September - 4 night aboard the dream. The WDW before or after issue got me thinking. So I analyzed it.
Cruise then WDW Sat. - leave house about 6am and drive down to Downtown Disney. Do dinner and other things and then head to hotel by port. Sun - cruise starts Thur - cruise ends, drive over to WDW, check in and be to park by 11. Friday and Saturday - parks Sunday - a 2-3 hours in park then head home. So in the above we do a 4 night cruise and 3 nights at WDW. We get two full days at WDW, one mostly full day and then one with a few hours. In this scenario I would only need to take 5 days off from work. WDW then Cruise. Thurs - leave house about 6am and drive to WDW. Check in and at parks probably about 3pm. Friday & Saturday - parks Sunday - park for 2-3 hours and then to port. Sunday - Thurs - cruise. Thurs - leave cruise and then head home. So in the above we do a 4 night cruise and 3 nights at WDW. We get two full days at WDW, 1 half day, 1 day with a few hours. In this scenario I would need to take 6 days off from work. Doing the Cruise then WDW seems less rushed and gives us more time plus that little extra time at DTD. Love to hear comments and other people's experiences.

We are also doing our first cruise/WDW split this year. Option 1: Stay at WDW 8/31 until 9/5. On 9/5 leave for port and return from cruise on 9/8. Option 2: Leave port on 9/1, arrive back 9/5 and check into WDW until 9/8 or 9/9 (planning on going with 9/9 for right now). We chose option 2 in case we do not love the cruise at least we know we love WDW, lol. Plus, I wanted to do something different for our anniversary and we'll be on the cruise then so it works great!! Going to WDW afterwards just sounds better to me.

This is the same conclusion we came to as well. The timing of the cruise answered the question for us because we only want to use 5 vacation days. I think I would prefer wdw first, but at least now I still have something to look forward to when I get of the wonderful ship.

I would do either (and we have done both before) but we prefer to do WDW first as we take WDW commando style and look forward to relaxing on the cruise.
Also, there was a reason that when DCL did the official land/sea combo package they ALWAYS had the WDW portion first. One of the main reasons was to alleviate your possibly missing the cruise due to late or delayed flights getting into MCO. If you do WDW first and your flight is delayed or cancelled the worse case scenario is that you miss some resort and/or park time (much less logistics involved)....if you have the cruise first and your flight is significantly delayed or cancelled you can miss the ship and that means a whole lot of logistics to get you to the next port. So, as long as you book an early enough flight and or are driving it should be no problem but just something to think about. MJ

We also did "surf & turf" rather than "land & sea" - it really was just the timing that dictated it for us. We wanted the 4-night cruise rather than 3-night, but had to fit it all into the same calendar week (plus weekends). So doing WDW first just didn't "fit" our parameters. I also had heard that cruising last was preferred, but we loved our vacation. As I have heard others mention, WDW after the cruise helps to prolong the Disney feel rather than the immediate let-down right off the ship. But then again, there is always that let-down whenever we head for home.
Enjoy your cruise! |

Either would be fine I mean what could be wrong with a Disney vacation. We did a 5 night cruise in June and WDW after. It was our first cruise buy 7th WDW trip. The one thing I will say is that we were so relaxed after the cruise that it was a big adjustment to make. The cruise is nice because everything is an elevator ride away. WDW was lines, waiting for transportation, crowds and paying for our meals without our server waiting on us So as long as you go into it knowing that you'll be relaxed and then busy, you'll be just fine!!

You don't say what kind of tickets you have. We only go to the parks on days we can stay from opening until closing. We use 10 day NE passes. You would be using four days worth of tickets but only spending three days worth of time in the parks.

For a Sun- Thurs cruise with a car for the OP that makes sense.
Out of driving range brings other considerations into play. for us: First, travel allowances for any delays Second, time change of 3 hours Three, family in area (4 hour drive one way) Four, maximizing the cost of airfare by including the family visit (need minimum of 2 weeks vacation to pull it off, plus weekends on both ends) Our scenario includes a flight from Seattle and having to allow for any delays due to weather. Our cruise was Dec 8. We flew out the 6th. Direct flight to MCO (one per day) Leaves around 9am pacific time and arrives MCO 5:15. (Have to head to the airport from our house at 5 am) Non direct flights left earlier and arrived later. We flew out two days before just in case of flight cancellations, weather, snow or ice. Figured once in the air we have a good chance of both us and the luggage arriving on time. This plane basically flies there and then flies back in one day. Best chance of avoiding delays. Advised not to fly in with less than 24 hours before boarding the ship on the dis. One time we did the overnight redeye (weekend only)and we were exhausted. That was a wasted day and everyone was cranky, not in true DIsney spirits. For the cruise, with the time difference, we wanted one morning to sleep in and be rested. Fear of being too exhausted to hear an unusual alarm clock/non functioning alarm clock. What we did Flew in on Thursday for Sat 7 day cruise. Post cruise 4 night WDW stay, then family 6 night (7 nights) stay 2 night post family stay WDW with late arrival Flew home We were so spoiled on the cruise and had such fantastic servers that the parks were a let down in comparison. On the pros of precruise stay Excitement is high and everything seemed fantastic. Allowed time for any lost luggage to catch up before boarding the cruise. Taking the DCL transport from resort made the anticipation even better. One con- maybe- being too excited about the cruise to enjoy it- the "Are we there yet?" concept Pros of postcruise stay Time to get your landlegs back. Last minute shopping. Time to mail things home Cons of postcruise stay You notice the difference in food and cleanliness more. Fantasy was so new it had the new ship smell. WDW seemes old and tired in comparison afterwards. For us, the best flight home is after 5pm. Flying home day of disembarkation would be a very long day. Leaving on a non direct flight gets us home at the same time. Makes for a nice leisurely lunch. Our plan for next time. Fly in, stay the night. Go to DTD. Sleep Get rental car. Go see family. Return to park do the vacation then. Do the cruise. Stay max 2 nights post cruise. (that gives us one full day and 2 partial days) Hope that helps someone else process what would work best for them.

Definitely a let down to have to actually pay for everything in the park after you have had 7-days of just ordering it onboard. Of course, you have already paid a lot for that to be included, but it gives the illusion while on the cruise.

(have to add we were also there in September and are DVC) We ended up purchasing annual passes. In future we will plan that part better as well.

Of course you have to do what logistically makes the most sense for your family and situation.
Personally we wouldn't do WDW after the cruise again. When we did the parks before, we were excited, and the lines didn't seems so long. Afterwards there were a few things we noticed. 1) We still had sea legs and didn't feel great. Some of the rides weren't pleasant 2) We felt so relaxed and wonderful coming off the cruise, but 2 days in the parks and we were frazzled again! 3) We had never noticed before at wdw, but after the cruise the parks seemed dirty? I don't know...just not so sparkling! 4) The accommodation also seemed cheap and old. Guess we were just spoilt! 5) Suddenly you feel the food is really expensive! I remember having a counter service breakfast the first morning - kids had a waffle and it came with a couple of pieces of bacon. Our youngest said 'Please can I go back for some more bacon' But that was not an option! They'd got used to the cruising' style! We still had a good time, but it was not as 'magical' immediately post-cruise. Just our experience.

I have done them both ways we are DVC and the points are less during the week which has a big part of it. In Dec we did the 3 day dream and 1 day pre stay and 3 nights at post. Had a great time.

I've done both and before works better for me. We did a 4 night cruise and then 4 days in the parks in January. I was "landsick" for the first 2 days after the cruise and constantly felt like I was still moving. It made the parks a little less enjoyable!

We have done it both ways, and we prefer WDW then the cruise. When we did the cruise prior to the World, we were wondering where the kids club was on day 2 It's difficult to go from the laid-back relaxation of a cruise to the running of the parks. I love the parks, but I think it's best to do them first and unwind on the cruise Have a great trip!

Well...that's all. I know there will always be some changes from last year to this year. I noticed that they left out the Crystal Palace in 2003, but it should be open. And "it's a small world" will probably still be closed this year. and I the Goofy's Country Dancin' Jamboree will be different this year.
But this should give some newbies an idea of what to expect and what to plan for.
ºoº Have fun planning.
ºoº Sincerely, Ray
I was looking at the map again and I will try to describe "Where TO Find..." from last year 2003. Of course these may change a little bit this year, but most of locations are about the same. Maybe this can help you plan, too.
1. Where is Santa Claus to take pictures with the kids of all ages sitting on his lap?"
ºoº Besides seeing Santa high on his chair in the parade, he was located in only one spot. As you enter the MK, and walk under the railroa station, go to your LEFT side. Santa is located outside on the left side of the City Hall. Usually you will see the Popcorn vendor on the curb. Look to your left. He'll be waving to you...ho...ho...ho.
2. Where do you go to get your free holiday pictures taken and free MVMCP Button? (Note: Fill out a card for every member in your family to get a picture for each ticket that you bought. Except for the pictures that you want, and you take a family picture, make out the other cards to the grandparents address or some other friend.) Last year there were only three places. My favorite is in Adventureland where the cookies and hot cocoa were near by.
ºoº Last year, in Advertureland as you cross the bridge on your right near the Alola Isle dole whip place The Magic Carpets of Alladin. Although a couple of years ago they set them up in the Adventureland Pirates of the Caribbean on your left.
ºoº Last year in the Liberty Square to the right of The Hall of Presidents. A couple of years ago they set up across the street in the Liberty Tree Riverboat entrance. This can be a busy intersection.
ºoº Last year in the Fantasyland "it's a small world" attraction. But I think that this attraction is closed this December. They could still hold it here though. Also a very busy place sometimes.
ºoº Last year in the Tomorrowland near the Timekeeper before you reach Buzz. I don't remember this place before.
3. There were only three places to find cookies and cocoa:
ºoº In Adventureland right next to the photo taking place on your right as you cross the bridge between the Aloha Isle Dole Whip place and the attraction, The Magic Carpets of Aladdin. This is my favorite place to go.
ºoº In Liberty Square right next the photo taking place on your right between the Hall of Presidents and sometimes the Riverboat. This is a busy intersection.
ºoº At the counter service of the Plaza Pavilion. If you were walking up Mainstreet, you could hang a right before the bridge next to the Plaza Ice Cream Shop and walk straight to the Plaza Pavilion counter. To get a picture, just continue around to your left to the Tomorrowland Timekeeper area.
4. There were ten Favorite Character locations on the map. I don't remember who they were.
ºoº In the center circle of Mainstreet between the flag pole and the huge christmas tree.
ºoº Off Mainstreet on a side street on the right, just past the jewlery store and before the bakery. This is easy to miss because you will probably looking at the castle.
ºoº In Adventureland between the Swiss Family Treehouse and the Jungle Cruise on the left.
ºoº In Adventureland in front of the Carabbean Cruise.
ºoº In Frontierland, hidden behind the Christmas Shoppe on your left as you cross the bridge. Most people don't venture this way. But if you were in front of the Crystal Palace, and take the road over the bridge it will also lead you to the place behind the Christmas Shop.
ºoº In Frontierland, between the Shootin' Arcade and the Country Bear Jamboree.
ºoº In Fantasyland in the Character Festival, just northeast of Dumbo attraction.
ºoº In Toontown Hall of Fame Tent where the characters usually are located.
ºoº In Toontown between Donald's Boat and Goofy's Brainstormer.
ºoº Between the Fantasyland Mad Tea Party attraction and the Tomorrowland Indy Speedway.
Sometimes, near the end of MVMCP, as everyone is leaving, several Disney Characters appear in front of the Town Square Exposition Hall.
Start the planning. And remember this is from last year's Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party Guidemap that is only handed out as you enter that night.
I'll tell you what I'll do, I'll be arriving November 28th and eating at the California Grille. I'll try and walk over to the MK and ask for a 2004 MVMCP Guidemap and update it early November 29th on my WebTV.
Sincerely, Ray
Guess what Dave Card did for me. He scanned the 2003 MVMCP Guidemap and said that I could share these pictures with everyone. Thank you, Dave.

Hot Cross BunsIt's hard to believe the difference in home-made hot cross buns – they really are far better than any bought from a shop and a lot cheaper into the bargain! But easy-blend dried yeast is not suitable for this recipe. If you want to make more distinctive crosses, use a flour-and-water paste made with 4 oz (110 g) plain flour and approximately 3 tablespoons water. Roll out thinly and divide into small strips, dampening them to seal. |
Makes about 12 This recipe is taken from Delia Smith's Complete Cookery Course, Delia Smith's Complete Illustrated Cookery Course and Delia Smith's Winter Collection. It has also appeared in Sainsbury's Magazine (April 1995). |
MethodFirst stir the teaspoon of caster sugar into 5 fl oz (150 ml) hand-hot water, then sprinkle in the dried yeast and leave it until a good frothy 'beer' head forms. |

26 April 2013
The local community project We Are Cardiff best known for its community centred blog is set to produce an independent short film about life in the city of Cardiff, with support from Cardiff University.
Building on the popularity of its community written blog, the film aims to bring the lives of ordinary Cardiff people to life, while showing the alternative side that Cardiff has to offer. Cardiff University is pleased to announce support for the film and to help the project become a reality for 2013.
We Are Cardiff say: "Cardiff is a little city, but at the same time, it's a great one. We really love our city and think we have a great chance to make a film that showcases how wonderful, creative and supportive a place to live it can be.
"Cardiff University is well known for its own diverse student population, and the benefits this brings to the Welsh capital. With a student population of 27,000 and c.6,000 staff, Cardiff University makes up a significant proportion of the community."
Helia Phoenix, the creator of the We Are Cardiff project and artistic director of the film explains the partnership. Helia said: "Having been a student at Cardiff University – both undergrad and postgrad – I've got first-hand experience of how important students are to this city, and how the city affects the lives of students who decide to come here to study – and those who never leave. Like me! We are overjoyed to be teaming up with Cardiff University to showcase what a wonderful city Cardiff is. We really believe in it and I hope we can show that off to the world."
Sandra Elliott, Director of Communications and International Relations said "I'm pleased to announce the University's involvement with the We Are Cardiff film project. The community is one of the many reasons that make our city such an attractive place to live and study for Cardiff students. Each year we welcome over 10,000 students to study at Cardiff University. It will be wonderful to see the lives of our students featured as part of the community in this unique documentary."
The short film hopes to cover a year in the life of the city and include events and activities as wide and varying as roller derby, Sŵn Festival and Cardiff Students' Union's festival of diversity. The University is working with the film producers to invite students to tell their Cardiff story and to capture footage of student events and activities that take place across campus.
The short film is scheduled for release this summer. Cardiff University will be hosting screenings across campus later this year and hosting the film across its own social media channels.

Laganas Holidays
Fellow travellers say Laganas is great for…
The biggest and busiest resort of the Greek island of Zakynthos, also called Zante, is Laganas, situated in the south of the island, and conveniently located close to the airport. Laganas may not feel like a traditional Greek town, but most of the resort's regular visitors do not come here for its history or culture. Package holidays in Laganas are usually snapped up by carefree 20-somethings looking for a fun-filled week away in the sun. Some might say it is a tacky resort, but despite this, holidaymakers return to Laganas year after year.
The beach in Laganas is a great place to take a dip and soak up some rays, but like most other coastal tourist resorts nearby, there are no water sports available here. This is to protect the loggerhead sea turtles that migrate to the Bay of Laganas every year during the summer months to lay their eggs in the sand. A large part of the bay is a national park, and therefore heavily protected by ecologists, so activity on the surrounding water is kept to a minimum.
Holidays in Laganas generally revolve around the nightlife. It is the only Club 18-30 resort on the island, and for this reason it attracts all the young visitors to Zante. Generally speaking, this is not a suitable resort for families with small children or elderly persons, due to the raucous nature of the local evening entertainment. If you don't plan to party the nights away, do your best to find package holiday deals which don't land you in a hotel or apartment close to the main strip, which has over 100 bars and nightclubs for revellers to choose from. When eating out in Laganas, while the resort has lots of fast food outlets, more traditional Greek food and good quality international cuisine is also available.

A Highland man who pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice in which he admitted to cleaning up a crime scene after a murder at his now-closed Hammond bar was placed on probation for one year.
Steve Dennis Hekkel, 41, admitted he started to clean up blood from the floor on Jan. 13, 2011, shortly after Ernesto Ramirez stabbed Victor Adams, 34, of West Lafayette, inside the Copper Penny Bar at 7105 Kennedy Ave., Hammond. Hekkel also admitted he picked up the knife with a napkin and walked back toward the outside beer garden. Hekkel also mopped up the bar, as shown on video surveillance.
In addition, Hekkel instructed his employees to clean the bar before police arrived. The cleanup included throwing a rug by the front door over a fence. The rug contained DNA belonging to the victim and another individual involved in the fight in which Adams was stabbed.
Hammond police learned of the stabbing through friends of the victim after they arrived at the hospital. About 30 minutes after the murder, Hammond police arrived at the Copper Penny. The bar smelled of bleach and the floors were wet.
Lake Superior Court Judge Thomas Stefaniak Jr. accepted the terms of the plea agreement, which called for the sentence of one year on probation and for the conviction to be entered as a misdemeanor.
Hekkel must submit to random drug testing through the probation department and complete a program for batterers.
A separate case of domestic battery was dismissed because the victim, who has a child with Hekkel, refused to cooperate.
Ramirez, 32, is serving a 64-year prison sentence for murder and criminal gang activity.

Planning for Streaming Media
Whether it's an extension of videoconferencing or an IPTV-based in-house video network, streaming media is now essential to many AV installations. How do you go about choosing a platform?
Pick just about any form of enterprise communications—digital signage, training, collaboration—and if it doesn't already involve video, it will soon. So says a recent Gartner Group survey, whose respondents expect their video usage to more than double in external communications and digital signage.
"YouTube has created an appetite," says Ted Gessesse, VBrick System's Online Streaming Service (VBOSS) product manager.
It's a trend that highlights why streaming video skills are increasingly important for AV pros. Besides needing IT and networking skills, success also requires understanding streaming's unique characteristics and how they determine what to look for when comparing one vendor's streaming solution to another's.
For example, there are myriad ways that end users consume video. Thanks to the proliferation of broadband cellular networks and tablets such as the iPad, it's increasingly likely that many streams will be going over a wireless connection and out to a handheld device. So one thing to look for when comparing different vendors' streaming products is how they handle situations when, say, some viewers are using a desktop PC on a corporate LAN, while others are watching on an Android tablet from a café Wi-Fi hot spot, and still others are on an iPhone over cellular.
Moreover, the Apple iPhone and iPad can't handle Flash, while Windows Media doesn't work well on other handheld devices. These kinds of variables must be front-of-mind when determining the platform that best supports a client's video end points.
"You need to be able to support to the full contingent of devices because that's where your audience is," says Dave Stoner, CEO of ViewCast, which makes Niagra streaming media appliances and encoders for delivering video to broadband networks and mobile devices in multiple formats, resolutions, and bit rates. "The whole idea of this technology is to reach people where they are."
"We have sensors that look at the connection you're coming in on to offer you the right kind of video," says VBrick's Gessesse. "You don't have to do just 150kbps because you're limited to what iPhone users can handle."
It's helpful if the platform also can make adjustments on the fly in order to ensure the best possible viewing experience as conditions change. "So if my bandwidth drops or my device's CPU gets busy with some other application, it will drop back in the stream I'm receiving and pick one that's a lower bit rate so the user experience can be maintained at the level that the customer expects," Stoner says.

I have quite a few fall decorations, so I will break those pictures up as well.
This is my banister as you enter the front door. The garland was in a bundle w/ another garland and a swag, $2.58 for the whole thing. The scrollwork pumpkin was a TS find last year, and the outline pumpkin was a TS find a few yrs ago. The grapevine wreath in the outline pumpkin was $1 at ARC this year. I made the gold bow from ribbon bought at HL after the holidays for 90% off. TTFN,

Candy, you are so lucky to find these neat decorations. I would of bought all of them too. Love both of your pumpkins. To cute. Punk |

Me too, me too! Gosh Candy, you find the neatest things with your thrifting. "Treasure shopping" as Luvs calls it, and you certainly do find treasures! hugs, Karen |
Gosh Candy...I think if we lived near ea other we'd have a problem...We'd probably be bumping into each other at the same TS! Great finds and prices too. Love the pumpkins and your railing came out lovely. jane |
- Posted by jeannespines (My Page) on Tue, Sep 21, 10 at 23:30
Your railing is quite GORGEOUS & a unique style in itself, too! Love how you've created "Fall" in this vignette...hey, isn't that the same "outline pumpkin" that I got while on vacation...thanks for the leaf wreath idea in it...I like that! Jeanne S. |
- Posted by christmascandy (My Page) on Wed, Sep 22, 10 at 11:33
Punk & Karen, I have accumulated quite a bit of "stuff" over the years, and I sometimes find things off season, when others wouldn't necessarily want to buy them, but I just put them in the basement. Jane, I shop TS in several different cities/towns so I have a larger selection from which to choose. You'd need to go to a lot of different stores to bump into me, LOL. Jeanne, that outline pumpkin has a point in the bottom to hold a candle, but only 1 crossbar, so the candle always wanted to lean. When I found that pretty wreath last week, it fit perfectly into the framework and gives it more presence than just one candle did. I did notice your outline pumpkin in your posting. As Karen has said in the past, we are a lot of kindred spirits on this forum, and therefore seem to have similar tastes! TTFN, |

Looks super, all the fall colors look nice with your neutral decor as a background. I have a hard time finding blending fall decor in my house. Frou |
That garland and stair is beautiful!!! All of your goodies make a lovely display It always makes me smile when I discover that someone else has found something that I have! We all do seem to have "like" tastes. Thanks for posting. |

does anyone know if a delosperma cooperi planted in a pot will survive the winter without bringing it indoors? also, is it supposed to be watered throughout winter or am i to stop watering mid fall? |

I have it growing outdoors in my garden. It has survived several winters without any care. Susan. |
thanks! i have it planted in an area that receives too much moisture. i want to move it to a pot so hopefully it will do a little better. i was a little scared though because i didn't want to kill it due to lack of insulation for the roots. |
As Susan stated, this plant can survive with little or no care if it's basic needs are met - full sun and excellent drainage. It should do just fine potted and with little or no supplemental watering, since our winters are typically wet anyway. Good luck! Nelson |

Quoted from JJR Some of the healthy people will say white isn't as good for you. My chiro told me this. My swami says it's a diamond. And then my sister's son's autism doctor says white digests easier. What's the truth? I don't know. But it seemed OK for me. At least from the first blush. How does it do for you all?
Quoted from passionprincess My father, an O+ hunter, has serious digestion problems. He is not 100% compliant but finds that sweet rice (glutinous rice) digests even better than white rice. He can't do brown rice at all because it is so tough on his stomach.
Quoted from Possum Would that be sushi rice? Apparently it is low oxalate which could be why it digests better JJR the low oxalate factor is also why autistics do better on it too...I grew upon brown rice & just love the taste (one of my fave desserts/breakfsts - hec any meal, could easily be brown rice with a knob of butter) but I find with any rice I gain...but haven't tried sushi rice yet... Good tip PC about the rinsing & soaking...
Quoted from JJR Indigestion? I don't get that with oats though. In fact, I feel like I've come home when I eat oats. They are like, aaaaaaaaaahhhhh for me. Calming. But as far as the energy goes. In my swami, the grain portion talks about it giving you energy. And I have noticed the times I tried to not eat any grains, I had no energy. I'm thankful I can eat some.
Quoted from O in Virginia Cream of rice (like rice grits) hot cereal is not listed on my swami. I bought some and have tried it a couple of times with a dab of ghee and some agave syrup, but it gives me indigestion later the same way oatmeal used to do. Maybe it is not processed in a gluten-free environment. That is the first time since btd/swami that rice has not agreed with me.

Sharlto Copley offered villain role in 'Oldboy' remake
Spike Lee's remake of excellent Korean film now may have its bad guy.
The 'Oldboy' remake which first looked like an awful idea is looking more promising every day. First, Spike Lee was set to direct the film. Then, Josh Brolin was cast as the lead which was admittedly a great choice. Now, the movie might have had its bad guy and it's another excellent choice if it ends up happening.
Variety reports that the studio has offered the role of the villain to actor Sharlto Copley. Audiences have seen the actor most famously as the lead in District 9 and his performance was award-worthy in that already excellent film. He later appeared in a hilarious role in 'The A-Team' and was a highlight of that film, but this would be quite a departure for him. Anyone who has seen the original Korean film knows how important the villain is in the movie despite not a long screen time. The role has previously been passed by Clive Owen and Colin Firth, so this is not a complete confirmation at this point. But I'd much rather see this guy get the role and surprise us.
What do you think?

Calculus of variations
Name: existing Status: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: Around 1995
Why are there not many books on the calculus of variations? Can the concept of variation be extended to any set and has it been done? In differential calculus one seems to vary a variable and in calc of variations one varies functions. Has research stopped in the subject or is there a subject which encompasses it?
I assume differential topology and theories of differentiable manifolds are essentially generalizations in the sense you seem to be after, of the idea of differentiation to essentially arbitrary "sets" (really topological spaces of various sorts). But in generalizing that way, something has perhaps been lost. I know I found variational calculus to have a very different feel from any of the topology stuff I took (it has been a long time though.). The real downfall of variational calculus though has probably been the computer, since just about any variational problem can be discretized and put as a simple minimization problem (for example expanding the function in Fourier series) for which there are all sorts of computa- tional approaches.
It has gone to physics. Much of physics is based upon minimizing a function called "the action." You will find a lot of literature in advanced books on mechanics. Look for the terms "Lagrangian" and "Hamiltonian". Another relevant topic is "Quantum Field Theory."

Good TV shows know how to play with viewers' expectations. A savvy writing staff learns what their audience is familiar with – dialogue patterns, plot points, clichés, common story arcs – and manipulates it, subverting or reinforcing those expectations for greater dramatic or comic effect. For instance, here we have a show whose protagonist is named Oliver, with an episode titled "Dodger" and featuring a villain of the same name. Now, any reasonable person, nay, any right-thinking person, would expect such an episode to contain multiple Charles Dickens jokes. Yet there were none to be had. Expectations: subverted. Also not to be had? Much excitement.
This "Dodger," so named for his unwillingness to do his own stealing, is sadly not the most charismatic or dangerous villain in the world. He's a slick character, certainly, using bomb collars and a Taser-ended baton to pull off his heists using innocent bystanders as proxies, but a clever M.O. and a British accent do not a supervillain make. Still, Oliver makes it his newest mission to track the guy down, particularly when new team member Felicity starts getting squirrely over her boss's laser-like focus on intimidating rich assholes.
Moira's also in a rebellious mood, as she makes plans with pal/co-conspirator Frank Chen to free herself from Merlyn's conspiracy and its ominous "Undertaking," which apparently started as a plan to clean up the Glades neighborhood that spun wildly out of control. The Undertaking is clearly the long game of the season, and it's going to be interesting to see how the writers manage to make it suitably menacing. Normally, when rich people set their sights on taking out a slum, they just buy up land and bulldoze some tenements, easy peasy. Unsavory, maybe, but not exactly a criminal masterstroke. It's going to be tricky to come up with a plan that's suitably catastrophic, but still feasible in a real-ish world. Stay tuned.
On the island, Oliver comes across a guy who's been beaten and tied up, and has to decide whether to trust the guy's claim of being shipwrecked or just leave him, since he might be part of a trap. Tough call. He opts to leave the guy, which is the kind of difficult moral dilemma that might have been interesting if it had any bearing on anything else in this episode. Which it didn't.
Oh, wait, was I talking about supervillains and mysterious master plans? Silly me, because tonight's show was all about romance. Awkward, highly uncomfortable romance! It starts with Oliver and Felicity cajoling Diggle into asking out his widowed sister-in-law Carly, which was highly unsettling. Here's an etiquette tip: if your friend tells you he doesn't want to date his dead brother's wife, unless his name is Onan, you agree and change the goddamn subject. Yet Oliver and Felicity insist, and Diggle acquiesces, to Carly's surprising delight. Thank goodness, now they can consolidate the family lands and maintain the line of succession for the Danish crown. But Polonius says that Hamlet kid is starting to act a little… never mind, this Shakespeare joke is getting out of hand. Movin' on.
Oliver gets uncomfortable romance number two, as he asks out his cop pal McKenna Hall, while surreptitiously bugging her phone to get tips on the Dodger. Wasn't that exactly what got Detective Lance all chewed out a couple episodes ago? In any event, neither date goes terribly well, as Oliver freezes up when McKenna asks him about his time on the island and Diggle blathers on about his brother like an idiot. To complete the trifecta, Thea gets her purse snatched by a suspiciously handsome, heavily eyebrowed Glades kid named Roy Harper. Will this rebellious rich girl fall for the sexy bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks? And will they win the big breakdancing contest to save the community center, all while learning some valuable life lessons along the way? All signs point to electric boogaloo. What was I saying earlier, something about expectations?
Back in the realm of interesting things happening, Oliver's first attempt to catch the Dodger is a bust, so he lays some bait in the form of a pricey jewel of just the right time period that the Dodger likes to steal. I guess thieves in this world specialize to an absurd degree. Naturally, the bad guy gives up his characteristic M.O. entirely and just saunters on in to pocket the gem. Felicity gets in his way and winds up with a bomb collar for her troubles. It's up to Oliver to catch the Dodger without inadvertently blowing his new sidekick's head off.
What follows is perhaps the lowest-speed chase I've ever seen on television, non-three-legged division. The Dodger drives off in a nondescript sedan, pursued by Oliver on a borrowed motorcycle, at a top speed of maybe thirty miles per hour. The director did his best to make the chase look perilous, frantically cutting between shots like Michael Bay on a caffeine binge, but nothing could disguise just how slow and wobbly it was. At least it gave everyone an opportunity to name streets after famous DC Comics writers and artists, and that's always fun. Oliver mercifully ends the chase with an arrow to the Dodger's tires, then handily disarms him. Threat, and interest, over.
The action portion of the evening having ended with a whimper, it falls to the romances to wrap up the episode. Which they do, in two utterly identical scenes: Oliver/Diggle apologizes to McKenna/Carly for his mistake on the earlier date and the attendant emotional baggage, McKenna/Carly forgives him, and they kiss. Look, I fully admit that I'm biased against romantic storylines in shows like this. I'm just generally not interested, and they've got to be really unusual and outstanding to change that. But these aren't, and handwaving away all the real obstacles in both relationships to make way for identical reconciliation scenes does no one any favors.
Then again, maybe being in romantic relationships with the leads will allow McKenna and Carly the opportunity to display some more personality than they've been able to in the two minutes or so of screen time they've gotten up to this point. That would be refreshing. And whatever else I had against it, the scene between Oliver and McKenna at least had the advantage of leading up to Oliver's hilarious, split-second frustration when Detective Lance puts her on the Hood case on the spot. All it needed was a patented Nelson Muntz "Haw haw!" to be perfect.
The one thing a superhero show should never, ever be is dull. This episode was, though, and that's a disappointment after the action-packed last couple of weeks. A lackluster villain and wheel-spinning subplots made sure of that. Fortunately, "Dodger" did take time to set up a couple of promising plots: First, however much I may joke about Roy Harper's introduction, I am interested to see what the show does with the presumed sidekick-to-be, beyond romancing Thea. And in the last scene, Moira makes a fantastic bad decision when she calls on China White to set up a hit on Malcolm Merlyn. Intrigue! Murderous rogues! Why, that sounds like the kind of story one might enjoy watching on a superhero-related television show! Hopefully this show's creators come to agree at some point.
Next week: The scourge of villain-on-villain violence comes to Starling City as China White takes on Malcolm Merlyn. Also: Deadshot lives!

AT HL Hall & Sons we're proud of our 124 years business history.
But we're not trapped in it.
We're focused on the present, and on building a prosperous future: for our customers, our people, the community. And yes, for our shareholders too, but we'll only be able to do this if we get it right in the market place, in the workplace, and in the communities in which we leave our footprints.
So the only thing old-fashioned about Halls right now is our values, and our commitment to building a resilient, long term future through creating shared value. We're relentless about performance. But we don't believe there has to be a choice between delivering exceptional performance and making the right investments in the wellbeing of our people and our planet.
To deliver the success we strive for in our fresh produce, property and new
investment businesses means we're going to need to break some of the old
rules. Create some new ones. We recognise that if we don't like change,
we're going to like irrelevance even less. And as a family business, at
Halls we like the idea of shaping the future with the seventh generation
in mind.
In 1890 our founder Hugh Lanion Hall defied conventional wisdom
and started commercial farming outside Nelspruit. The critics said it
would never work. He proved them wrong. Please explore this site to
find out more about how Halls is continuing this tradition of innovation
and forging new frontiers in 2014 and beyond.

Disney Saratoga question & help needed
We will be staying at Saratoga Springs and have requested the Congress Park area. Can you please tell me how far a walk it will be to the boat dock or main check in area?:goodvibes Thanks in advance.. |
It's really not that far, between 5 and 10 minutes depending on the building and how fast you walk. We always stay in Congress Park and find it a pleasant walk.
If being close to the boat dock and main check in area is important, you may want to change your preferences. There are sections that are closer than Congress Park.
7 minutes with a double stroller. Easy walk.
We were just down there in August and stayed in Congress Park. 1st time in that section and loved it. The views of DTD were fantastic and the walk up to the main area was easy. Disney is also building (not sure if it is done yet) a bridge from SSR over to DTD making the boat walk much further then the bridge walk (when it is finished) I also found that the Congress Park pool was NEVER crowded and a great place to play with the kids or sit in the sun. No food service or drinks but your home is right there and cheaper to make your own drinks anyway! Enjoy!!!

Membership | Annual Meeting 2004 | Journal | Email us | Trials in Progress |
The Renovascular Forum is an established international society for the study of renovascular disease. The epidemiology, biology, clinical presentation, and intervention possibilities have made this an area of great interest to nephrologists, surgeons, and radiologists, and these cross-specialty interests are combined in the Renovascular Forum and the Journal of Renovascular Disease. The Renovascular Forum has an annual one-day meeting, covering research in progress, case presentations, and state of the art lectures. The next meeting will be Thursday 4th March 2004 at The Postgrad Centre, University Hospital Birmingham, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Edgbaston, Birmingham. This year sees the launch of the new online journal; the Journal of Renovascular Disease. Until recently, the Renovascular Forum has been predominantly based in the UK. Now it wishes to broaden its membership by inviting individuals from all countries to participate in its meetings, discussions, and journal. All physicians, radiologists, and surgeons as well as basic researchers working in the field are entitled to become members of the society. Members receive a subscription to the online journal Journal of Renovascular Disease. This publishes conventional research and clinical results, reviews and editorials. It also has a Bulletin Board, allowing real time discussion between members of the society. All articles are as citable and accessible through libraries as a conventional printed journal. The Executive Committee is Dr Sue Carr (Nephrology), Dr David Eadington (Physician), Dr Nick Chalmers (Radiology), Mr George Hamilton (Vascular Surgery), Dr Philip Kaira (Nephrology), Dr Graham Lipkin (Nephrology), Dr Jon Moss (Radiology), Dr Anthony Nicholson (Radiology), Dr John Scoble (Nephrology). |

Young's Literal Translation (YLT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Ho, every thirsty one, come ye to the waters, And he who hath no money, Come ye, buy and eat, yea, come, buy Without money and without price, wine and milk. | 1 "Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost. |
2 Why do ye weigh money for that which is not bread? And your labour for that which is not for satiety? Hearken diligently unto me, and eat good, And your soul doth delight itself in fatness. | 2 Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare. |
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me, Hear, and your soul doth live, And I make for you a covenant age-during, The kind acts of David -- that are stedfast. | 3 Give ear and come to me; hear me, that your soul may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David. |
4 Lo, a witness to peoples I have given him, A leader and commander to peoples. | 4 See, I have made him a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander of the peoples. |
5 Lo, a nation thou knowest not, thou callest, And a nation who know thee not unto thee do run, For the sake of Jehovah thy God, And for the Holy One of Israel, Because He hath beautified thee. | 5 Surely you will summon nations you know not, and nations that do not know you will hasten to you, because of the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, for he has endowed you with splendor." |
6 Seek ye Jehovah, while He is found, Call ye Him, while He is near, | 6 Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near. |
7 Forsake doth the wicked his way, And the man of iniquity his thoughts, And he returneth to Jehovah, and He pitieth him, And unto our God for He multiplieth to pardon. | 7 Let the wicked forsake his way and the evil man his thoughts. Let him turn to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him, and to our God, for he will freely pardon. |
8 For not My thoughts [are] your thoughts, Nor your ways My ways, -- an affirmation of Jehovah, | 8 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. |
9 For high have the heavens been above the earth, So high have been My ways above your ways, And My thoughts above your thoughts. | 9 "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. |
10 For, as come down doth the shower, And the snow from the heavens, And thither returneth not, But hath watered the earth, And hath caused it to yield, and to spring up, And hath given seed to the sower, and bread to the eater, | 10 As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, |
11 So is My word that goeth out of My mouth, It turneth not back unto Me empty, But hath done that which I desired, And prosperously effected that [for] which I sent it. | 11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. |
12 For with joy ye go forth, And with peace ye are brought in, The mountains and the hills Break forth before you [with] singing, And all trees of the field clap the hand. | 12 You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. |
13 Instead of the thorn come up doth fir, Instead of the brier come up doth myrtle, And it hath been to Jehovah for a name, For a sign age-during -- it is not cut off! | 13 Instead of the thornbush will grow the pine tree, and instead of briers the myrtle will grow. This will be for the LORD's renown, for an everlasting sign, which will not be destroyed." |

FREE SHIPPING on Almost Everything
All the features of the NS Mini, and more, but in an even smaller size.
The NS Micro offers improved accuracy, faster response, expanded calibration range, visual metronome mode and an improved ratchet design. A highly sensitive piezo transducer and easy-to-read multi-color backlit display allow smooth and highly accurate tuning in noisy, dim or well-lit environments while the micro design and reversible screen allow the tuner to hide effortlessly behind or mount on the front side of the headstock allowing the tuner to remain clamped to the instrument inside most cases when stored. A 360-degree swivel mechanism and adjustable padded clamp offer optimal viewing angles and maximum positioning flexibility. As a result, the NS Micro is equally at home on left- and right-handed instruments as well as on small and large headstocks, making it an ideal choice for the widest variety of players and instruments. The NS Micro is powered by a readily available CR2032 battery (included) and provides maximum battery life utilizing an auto-off function, shutting the tuner off automatically after several minutes from power up.
- Built-in piezo transducer picks up instrument's vibration rather than sound
- Improved software for faster response and improved accuracy
- Tri-color reversible backlit LCD screen makes it easy to tune in dark environments while allowing mounting in front or behind headstock
- Wide calibration range (410Hz to 480Hz) and visual metronome
- Compact design blends into the aesthetics of instrument while adding considerably less weight than other headstock tuners
- Tunes acoustic and electric guitars, basses, mandolins, banjos and other stringed instruments

Comments about D'Addario NS Micro Headstock Tuner:
As a player that's used many tuners, the "vibration sensing" design has become a Godsend. Of these, the Snark clip on was my go-to tuner, but because I leave it on the headstock it looked a bit out of place and glaring. This new D'Addario clip on solves that problem and is nearly invisible. A little more flimsy, the clip on assembly uses notches and can break easily (My first one was defective out of the box). It seems to work fine but lacks the range of accuracy the Snark has. Still, I would recommend this for those who leave their tuner on the instrument, and are concerned about aesthetics.

Does not function on a 5 string bass. Maybe someday they will perfect the technology.

BB14 Fan Recap, Episode Two
Missy and Austin weigh in on the big fight between Willie and Frank.
Willie Willie Willieeee!!!
It was a wild night on the Big Brother Live Feeds, and our host Missy was up waaayyy too late. But she's here for you, because some crazy stuff went down last night, and we need to talk about it!
But first, let's meet our new Wednesday Fan Recapper Austin! He's 20 years old but has been watching Big Brother since season 1 (hmmm, remind you of a certain BB14 player we know?). He is having fun watching Willie play the game, but not so much Danielle — disappointing because Austin had a little crush when he first saw her video.
Now, let's get to the Flashbacks:
Flashback #1
Britney, Shane and Willie are talking about the pros and cons of the coaches possibly entering the game. If you've been wondering whether the coaches are really there to coach, or are out for themselves, then Austin says this one is worth your time!
Flashback #2
Willie calls a house meeting. He advises his housemates to play their own game, and don't play the coaches game. He wants everybody to play as individuals. "I think he was doing it to say, 'this is our season, let's make it our own,'" Austin says. "The coaches had their chance." Missy 100 percent agrees!

ChaCha's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
ChaCha's adoption fee is $350.
ChaCha (Charlie) is a 8 year old, tri colour, Papillon mix that is spayed, micro chipped and her shots are up to date. She weighs about 12.5 pounds. ChaCha loves the attention of her humans, and, although she can be a bit shy, she is very good when she meets strangers. She is constantly by your side or sitting on your lap. She's good with other dogs (we're not sure about cats), and is fully housetrained.
Charlie had 10 teeth removed prior to coming into foster care, but you would never know it, she loves to chew on her stix and eats hard dog food (mixed with a teaspoon of moist). She carries her stuffed animals around with her all the time, but will let you take it to play fetch. She still requires a bit of work when she takes a treat - she is very anxious to get the treat, so you have to remind her to take it nicely. ChaCha sleeps on a pillow with her humans - she sleeps through the night and will not get up until her humans do. Since the moment she arrived at her foster home, her tail has never stopped wagging. She is a wonderful dog that deserves a great home – could it be yours?

Why Adoption is a Great Option
ChaCha, a Toronto Papillon dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Papillon for sale in Toronto, or seeking a Papillon dog from a breeder in Toronto.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Toronto already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Toronto breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Papillon breeders who help with Papillon rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Toronto paves the way for another one to be saved.
