Introduction to Numerical Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations Using MATLAB® teaches readers how to numerically solve both ordinary and partial differential equations with ease. This innovative publication brings together a skillful treatment of MATLAB and programming alongside theory and modeling. By presenting these topics in tandem, the author enables and encourages readers to perform their own computer experiments, leading them to a more profound understanding of differential equations.
The text consists of three parts:
All the tools needed to master using MATLAB to solve differential equations are provided and include:
This textbook can be tailored for courses in numerical differential equations and numerical analysis as well as traditional courses in ordinary and/or partial differential equations. All the material has been classroom-tested over the course of many years, with the result that any self-learner with an understanding of basic single-variable calculus can master this topic. Systematic use is made of MATLAB's superb graphical capabilities to display and analyze results. An extensive chapter on the finite element method covers enough practical aspects (including mesh generation) to enable the reader to numerically solve general elliptic boundary value problems. With its thorough coverage of analytic concepts, geometric concepts, programs and algorithms, and applications, this is an unsurpassed pedagogical tool.

The Proceedings of ISECON is the offical proceedings from the Conference on Information Systems Applied Research, held each fall. Published by AITP's Education Special Interest Group (EDSIG), 401 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 2200, Chicago, IL 60611-4267 USA. Phone: 800.224.9371.
Copyright for the proceedings as a collection is held by the AITP Education Special Interest Group. Copyright for individual papers is retained by the authors of those papers.
Review Process: Papers were reviewed blindly by at least three independent reviewers and judged on their contribution to the field of information systems education. Papers were either accepted, conditionally accepted, or rejected. The authors of accepted papers were required to address reviewer comments in the final version, and authors of conditionally accepted papers provided comments on their revisions to the conference papers chairs for secondary review and evaluation. If deemed necessary by the papers committee, resubmitted papers underwent a third review. Accepted papers that were not deemed ready for full presentation were accepted as works in progress and published either as abstracts only or as short, abbreviated papers. Refereed (accepted) papers are denoted as "Category: Refereed Paper" or "Category: Refereed Work in Progress." All authors were permitted to make final revisions to their papers after presenting but before the proceedings went to press.

Dark nebula in the Crux constellation (Southern Cross). It reduces the brightness of stars beyond it by 1–1.5 magnitudes. Easily visible against a starry background, it is probably about 550–600 light-years from Earth and 20–30 light-years in diameter. It figures in legends of peoples of the Southern Hemisphere and has been known to Europeans since c. 1500. The Northern Coalsack, in the constellation Cygnus, is similar in nature and appearance but somewhat less obvious.

I once had a P. caerula growing on the south side of my deck, on a slope. I don't actually water it there anymore, it's hard to get to. I grew a couple of incarnatas from seed, and was planning to put them there, I could try to remember to water. I could also put them on the south wall of my house but there is nothing to grow on. I can't think of places where they could be grown under a tree that have as good drainage, is that important? Can they be planted out their first winter or do they need to be kept indoors over winter? Will 2 seed-grown incarnates pollinate each other? I was surprised when they sprouted, I had chilled them in the refrigerator and they weren't sprouting, so I kind of neglected to water them and suddenly they came up! |
Follow-Up Postings:
You can plant them in the yard now, in your zone. Protect them with mulch for the first winter. They WILL go dormant, but should return in the spring/May and grow like fury. These vines will get massive and spread via underground runners, so make sure you want it - you will have it forever. Don't plant it near your house foundation - it will grow up through the siding and into the attic. |

Quoted from DenverFoodie The sun!
Quoted from kauaian I agree, but how do you know if you're getting enough?
Quoted Text About 70 percent of U.S. children have low levels of vitamin D, which puts them at higher risk for bone and heart disease."We expected the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency would be high, but the magnitude of the problem nationwide was shocking," said Dr. Juhi Kumar of Children's Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center.
Quoted from italybound If you're already deficient, you should prob supplement for a while w/ your dr's guidance of course. I avoid the sun alot because of skin cancer. And yes, my D3 is quite low......out of range. I'm supplementing. Using Nature Made I think, for now. I want to find something better.
Quoted from Chloe 75.....Even 80 isn't too far a reach. .
Quoted from kauaian That's a thought, will need to get tested.
Quoted from Lin I had my D level tested recently, the 25-Hydroxy was 33.9 and the doctor told me to supplement. The hormone part Calcitriol (1,25 di-Oh Vit D) was high outside of range which raised a concern that something is going on, and I'm going to be doing more blood tests to see what could be causing this. Anyone else had this issue?
Quoted from nwiser I take the Nordic Naturals Vit. D3. Seems to be a great company.My vit. D blood levels have come back as low as 16, and I am in the sunquite a bit. Not sure about this, but I definitely need to supplement.
Quoted from Lin Chloe, thanks for link.The Doctor says that going over the range means something is going on, one theory she wants to explore is whether I have something like chronic lyme disease which may not be showing any obvious symptoms but could be causing allergies and various low or high lab tests. So I will be seeing her next week and assume I will need to do more lab tests to try to identify what is going on.

"Duarte's Tavern comes by its landmark status honestly." -- Christine Delsol
"Some of our most popular establishments have roots back more than a century. Dozens of places have informed the Bay Area dining scene for decades, but the six longtime favorites here as as vibrant today as the day they opened." -- Michael Bauer
"When I think of leaving the Bay Area, I think of a bowl of soup. It is no generic bowl of soup...the dish that floats into my mind can be found only at Duarte's Tavern in Pescadero...the soup is artichoke..."
"Surfers drop by this ancient dive for thier insanely delicious cream of artichoke soup -- smoothly pureed, an earthly shade of pale green. Sweet bra." -- Robert Sietsema
"Duarte's, like Pescadero, has a worn Rockwellian quaintness that belies a streak of excellence. Its specialties are artichokes and seafood, and everything I tried on both trips -- the Fanny Bay Oysters on the Half Shell, the Green Chile and Artichoke Soup, Crabcakes and locally Petrale Sole and Sand Dabs -- was terrific."

The time has finally come. The yammering and excitable Detroit rapper Danny Brown, a dirty old man with a pill in his mouth and his dick in his hand, is just one month away from releasing his new album Old, the feverishly-awaited follow-up to his triumphant 2011 full-length XXX. The album is set to include contributions from a fascinating array of guests: A$AP Rocky, Freddie Gibbs, Schoolboy Q, Purity Ring, Charli XCX, and producers like Rustie, A-Trak, SKYWLKR, and Paul White. The last of those, a British beatmaker who previously worked with Danny on "Street Lights," is responsible for the woozy, scattered beat for first single "ODB," on which Brown absolutley spazzes. In that song's brand-new video, director Ruffmercy throws in all sorts of crazy filters to further distort Brown's already-fucked-up face. Watch it below.
Old is out 9/30 on Fool's Gold. I am very, very excited.

Paphiopedilum Orchid Care
The inhabitants of the Paphiopedilum world are a varied lot growing under many different conditions. This Paphiopedilum orchid care sheet tries to strike a happy medium of what works for all the members of the Paphiopedilum Alliance.
How Much Light
Paphiopedilums live on the floor of the jungle or in rock outcroppings where the light is filtered through the trees. While most Paphs prefer low light levels they will do just fine in the same amount of light that makes your Phalaenopsis happy. The strap-leafed (multiflora type) varieties can stand more light, up to about twice as much.
For those of you that want numbers most Paphs will grow well with about 10 to 15 percent of full sun, or about 1000 to 1500 foot candles. Strap-leaf varieties will grow and flower better at about 30 percent of full sun or about 3000 foot candles.
Temperatures for Paphiopedilums
Paphiopedilum orchids can be divided into two temperature groups, the warm growers and the cool growers. You can grow the two groups separately or together. Either growing method will give satisfactory results.
One temperature for all is the simplest and will provide good results. Keep your day temps between 70 to 85 degrees and your night temps in the 55 to 60 degree range.
The second way is to divide the plants into two groups, warm growers and cool growers. The warm growers are the mottled-leaf type and the strap-leaf types (multiflora). The cool growers are the green-leaf types.
Give the warm growers 75 to 85 degree days, 60 to 65 degree nights. Give the cool growers 75 to 80 degree days and 50 to 60 degree nights.
Actually Paphiopedilums are a very tough group of plants capable of growing in much broader temperature ranges than given here. If your growing in a greenhouse and something goes wrong with your heating or cooling system, I would give odds that your last serving plants are the complex Paphiopedilums. They are as tough as nails, capable of going from just above freezing to over 100 degrees (not recommended).
Watering your Paphiopedilum Orchid
Never, never never let your Paphiopedilum dry out. A dry Paph is a dead Paph use a good draining potting media like fir bark and water the heck out of it.
You want a rule of thumb? Ok, I'll stick my thumb out but remember that a rule of thumb is just a rough guide and you have to do the fine-tuning. Water twice a week in the summer and once a week in the winter. Water somewhere in-between during the spring and fall.
Here is an even easier rule of thumb. If you are successful with Phalaenopsis water your Paphiopedilums twice as often.
Use fertilizer at every other watering at one quarter to one-half strength. Do not apply the fertilizer to a dry plant, be sure and water it first. This is especially important for members of the Paphiopedilum genus.
Potting A Paphiopedilum Orchid
Attention all you potting nuts out there this is the plant for you! Paphiopedilums are strange in more ways than one. The more often you repot a Paph the happier it is. Paphs are sensitive to salts in their growing media and putting them in fresh potting mix usually causes a good spurt of growth. Why? Repotting with fresh mix removes the salts that have accumulated in the old potting mix.
There are growers that repot their Paphs two, three or even four times a year. But a word of warning avoid potting during the late fall or winter, you could get a nasty surprise come spring, a very dead orchid.
That's all there is to taking care of a Paphiopedilum orchid. This group of plants really is easy if you just remember to water well, kept the salts down in the potting mix and you should have great success.
Paphiopedilums: The Book
Tropical Slipper Orchids by Harold Koopowitz is a book for those who love Paphiopedilums. And for those of us with a love of Paphs it has everything…except enough pages. Oh, did I mention it also covers the New World Lady Slipper Orchids, Phragmipediums.
While the real focus of this book is on Lady Slipper hybrids and breeding there is something for everyone, like all the gorgeous pictures that just litter the book from front to back.
The cultivation chapter is what most of us are interested in, while only 24 pages long is packed with information. Good information from a true expert.
Included is a chapter is titled Selecting Plants for a Collection. This chapter alone makes the book worth acquiring. Most of us could sure use help in selecting a healthy plant of good quality. Harold takes the time to explain what makes a good quality plant and what to look for when plant lust sends you on a buying spree..
Then there is the section aimed at those who are just beginning to grow Paphiopedilums, here you will find recommendations for beginners and a short list of mistakes to avoid when acquiring your first plants.
Most of the rest of the book is about species, hybrids and breeding by one of the top Paphiopedilum breeders in the world. Don't forget the pictures!
If you are fascinated by Paphiopedilums or Phragmipediums this book should be in your library, dog eared and worn but in your library. Can you tell that I like the book?

Paphiopedilums: The Video
Paphiopedilums in the wild. This short video shows Paphiopedilum stonei growing in its native habitat. While the video is mediocre at best it does give you a glimpse at a Paphiopedilum growing in the limestone forest of western Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo.
Only 44 seconds long! Surely you can afford 44 seconds?

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Afghanistan and the War Legend
STRATFOR Readers,
As many of you know, Robert Merry joined STRATFOR as publisher in
January. While primarily focused on our business (bless him) he is also
a noted reporter (years with The Wall Street Journal as Washington
correspondent and head of Congressional Quarterly). Bob knows Washington
well, while STRATFOR has always been an outsider there. Since Bob brings
a new perspective to STRATFOR, we'd be foolish not to take advantage of
it. This analysis marks the first of what will be regular contributions
to STRATFOR*s work. His commentary will be titled "Washington Looks at
the World" and will focus on the international system through the eyes
of official Washington and its unofficial outriders. In this first
analysis, Bob focuses on the thinking that went into President Barack
Obama's Aug. 31 speech on the end of U.S. combat operations in Iraq. As
with all of STRATFOR*s pieces, it treats political leaders as rational
actors and avoids ideology and advocacy. Both are in ample supply in
this country, and there is no need to add to it. Bob is not trying to
persuade, praise or condemn. Nor is he simply providing facts. He is
trying to understand and explain what is happening. I hope you find this
of value. I learned something from it. By all means let us know what you
think, especially if you like it. Criticisms will also be read but will
not be enjoyed nearly as much.
- George Friedman, STRATFOR CEO
By Robert W. Merry
U.S. President Barack Obama's Aug. 31 Oval Office speech on the end of
U.S. combat operations in Iraq had many purposes: to claim a measure of
credit for largely fulfilling one of his major campaign promises; to
thank those who have served and sacrificed in the cause; to spread the
balm of unity over any lingering domestic wounds; to assure Americans
that it has all been worth it and that no dishonor was attached to this
foreign adventure, which was opposed by many in Obama's own party and by
him from the beginning.
Of all those purposes, and any others that might have been conceived,
the need to express assurance of the war's validity - and honor in its
outcome - is by far the most important. Any national leader must protect
and nurture the legend of any war over which he presides, even those -
actually, particularly those - he has brought to a close. The people
need to feel that the sacrifice in blood and treasure was worth it, that
the mission's rationale still makes sense, that the nation's standing
and prestige remain intact.
In terms of America, nothing illustrates this more starkly than the
Vietnam experience. This was a war that emerged quite naturally out of a
foreign policy outlook, "containment," that had shaped American behavior
in the world for nearly two decades and would continue to shape it for
another two decades. Hence, one could argue that the Vietnam War was a
noble effort entirely consistent with a policy that eventually proved
brilliantly successful. But the national pain of defeat in that war
spawned an entirely different legend - that it was a huge mistake and a
tragic loss of life for no defensible purpose. The impact of that legend
upon the national consciousness could be seen for decades - in
war-powers battles between the president and Congress, in a halting
defense posture often attributed to what was called the "Vietnam
Syndrome," in the lingering civic hostility engendered when the subject
emerged among fellow citizens, in the flow of tears shed daily at
Washington's Vietnam Memorial.
So the presidential responsibility for the legend of war is no trivial
matter when young Americans begin returning home in body bags. A wise
president will keep it well established in his mind in selling a war, in
prosecuting it and eventually in explaining it at its conclusion.
This important presidential function posed two particular challenges for
Obama during his Oval Office speech: First, his past opposition to the
war in Iraq created a danger that he might appear insincere or
artificial in his expressions, and second, it isn't entirely clear that
the legend can hold up, that the stated rationale for the war really
withstands serious scrutiny. Yes, America did depose Saddam Hussein and
his regime. But the broader aims of the war - to establish a stable,
pro-Western regime in the country and thus maintain a geopolitical
counterweight to the regional ambitions of Iran - remain unfulfilled.
The president handled the first challenge with aplomb, hailing the war's
outcome (so far) while avoiding the political schisms that it bred and
delivering expressions of appreciation and respect for his erstwhile
adversaries on the issue. Whether he succeeds in the second challenge
likely will depend upon events in Iraq, where 50,000 American troops
remain to support Iraqi security forces and help maintain stability.
But Obama's effort to preserve the war's legend, which was ribboned
throughout his speech, raises the specter of an even greater challenge
of preserving the legend of a different war - the war in Afghanistan,
which Obama says will begin to wind down for America in July of next
year. It remains a very open question whether events will unfold in that
nettlesome conflict in such a way as to allow for a reassuring legend
when the troops come home. That open question is particularly stark
given the fundamental reality that America is not going to bring about a
victory in Afghanistan in any conventional sense. The Taliban insurgency
that the United States is trying to subdue with its counterinsurgency
effort is not going to go away and, indeed, the Taliban will likely have
to be part of any accommodation that can precede America's withdrawal.
Thus, the Obama administration has become increasingly focused on what
some involved in war planning call "the endgame." By that, they mean
essentially a strategy for extricating the country from Afghanistan
while preserving a reasonable level of stability in that troubled land;
minimizing damage to American interests; and maintaining a credible
legend of the war that is reassuring to the American people. That's a
tall order, and it isn't clear whether the nearly 150,000 U.S. and
allied troops in Afghanistan, under U.S. Army Gen. David Petraeus, can
affect the magnitude of the challenge one way or another.
Very quietly, top officials of the Obama administration have initiated a
number of reviews inspecting every aspect of this endgame challenge.
Some involve influential outside experts with extensive governmental
experience in past administrations, and they are working with officials
at the highest levels of the government, including the Pentagon. One
review group has sent members to Russia for extensive conversations with
officials who were involved in the Soviet Union's ill-fated invasion of
Afghanistan in the 1980s. Others have traveled to Pakistan and other
lands, including the United Kingdom, Germany and France, to master the
diplomatic implications of any Afghan exit strategy.
It's too early to determine just what impact these review groups will
have on administration thinking, which appears to remain in a state of
development. But it can be said that at least some of these outside
experts are pressing hard for an endgame approach that moves beyond some
earlier thinking about the war and its rationale. For example:
* The need to involve Afghanistan's neighbors in any accommodation
that would allow for at least a reasonably graceful American exit.
In addition to next-door Pakistan, these likely would include
Russia, India and perhaps even Iran. All have a stake in Afghan
stability, and all have their own particular interests there. Hence,
the diplomatic game will be extremely difficult. But it is worth
noting that during the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan, Russia served
as a facilitator of U.S. cooperation with the northern ethnic
tribes, and Russians even provided personnel and vehicles to
America's Northern Alliance allies. Iran also helped facilitate the
invasion by suggesting security for American pilots faced with
ditching over Iranian territory.
* The necessity of working with local power centers and finding a way
of developing a productive discussion with the different ethnic
groups that need to be part of the Afghan endgame. How to do that
reportedly was one question posed to Russian officials who were
involved in the Soviet Union's Afghan experience and who had to deal
with insurgent leaders on the way out.
* A probable requirement that the United States relinquish any hope
that a strong central government in Kabul will form and bring about
stability in the country. Afghanistan has never had a strong central
government, and the various ethnic and religious groups, local
warlords, tribes and khans aren't going to submit to any broad
national authority. Their mountainous homeland for centuries has
afforded them plenty of protection from any invading force, and that
isn't going to change.
* A probable need to explore a national system with a traditionally
weak central government and strong provincial actors with
considerable sway over their particular territories.
Underlying all this is a strong view that the U.S.-led International
Security Assistance Force cannot impose an endgame. The Taliban are not
going to submit to U.S. blandishments for negotiation as a result of any
fear of what will happen to them if they don't. That's because they are
winning and possess the arms, wiles, knowledge of terrain and people and
insurgency skills to keep on winning, irrespective of what Petraeus does
to thwart them. Besides, the tribes of Afghanistan have demonstrated
through the centuries that they have the patience to outlast any
If the Taliban won't negotiate out of fear of what the U.S. military can
do to them, the question becomes whether they will negotiate out of a
sense of opportunity - as a means of bringing about the U.S. exit that
American government officials increasingly seem to want as well. There
are indications the Taliban might be interested in participating in such
a negotiated American exit, perhaps in exchange for some kind of
international recognition. At this point, however, there is no firm
evidence that such an approach could prove fruitful, and hence this
question remains one of the great imponderables hovering over America's
presence in Afghanistan.
But, if that does prove possible, the question of America's war legend
will loom very large indeed. Those involved in the review groups
reportedly are well aware that the nature of the U.S. departure will
inform the legend, and they are intent on crafting an outcome that will
honor America's Afghanistan war dead and U.S. war veterans. In other
words, in this view, there must remain a narrative that explains why
America was there, what was accomplished, and why the departure was
undertaken when it was. It must resonate throughout the nation and must
be credible.
This poses another fundamental question: Is there an inherent
inconsistency between the outlook emerging from these governmental
review groups and the recent pronouncements of Petraeus? Many of the
review-group participants seem to be working toward what might be called
a "graceful exit" from Afghanistan. Yet Petraeus told The New York Times
on Aug. 15 that he does not see his mission in such small terms as a
"graceful exit." Rather, he said his marching orders were to do "all
that is humanly possible to help us achieve our objectives." By "our
objectives," he seemed to mean establishing, through military force, a
sufficient degree of stability in the country to allow a negotiated exit
on American terms, with his Iraq record serving as the model. Even if
that is possible, it certainly will take considerable time. The general
made clear in the Times interview and in others that he fully intended
to press Obama hard to delay any serious troop withdrawal from
Afghanistan until well beyond the July 2011 time frame put forth by the
Thus, the nature and pace of withdrawal becomes another big question
hovering over the president's war strategy. Many high-ranking
administration officials, including the president, have said the pace of
withdrawal will depend upon "conditions on the ground" when July 2011
arrives. Obama repeated that conditional expression in his Iraq speech
the other night. But that leaves a lot of room for maneuver - and a lot
of room for debate within the administration. The reason for delaying a
full withdrawal would be to try to apply further military pressure to
force the Taliban to become less resistant. That goal seems to be what's
animating Petraeus. But others, including some involved in the review
groups, don't see much prospect of that actually happening. Thus, they
see no reason for much of a withdrawal delay beyond the president's July
deadline - particularly given the need to preserve the country's war
legend. The danger, as some see it, is that an effort to force an
outcome through military action, given the unlikely prospect of that,
could increase the chances of a traditional military defeat, much like
the one suffered by the Soviets in the 1980s and by the British in two
brutal military debacles during the 19th century.
Many of the experts involved in the Afghanistan review effort see a link
between the departure of U.S. combat troops from Iraq, as described by
Obama in his Oval Office speech, and the imperative to fashion an
Afghanistan exit that offers a war legend at least as comforting to the
American people. Certainly, the importance of the war legend was
manifest in Obama's Iraq speech. First, he repeatedly praised the valor
and commitment of America's men and women in uniform. Even in turning to
the need to fix the country's economic difficulties, he invoked these
U.S. military personnel again by saying "we must tackle those challenges
at home with as much energy, and grit, and sense of common purpose as
our men and women in uniform who have served abroad." He expressed a
resolve to honor their commitment by serving "our veterans as well as
they have served us" through the Department of Veterans Affairs,
emphasizing medical care and the G.I. Bill. And he drew an evocative
word picture of America's final combat brigade in Iraq - the Army's 4th
Stryker Brigade - journeying toward Kuwait on their way home in the
predawn darkness. Many Americans will recall some of these young men,
extending themselves from the backs of convoy trucks and yelling into
television cameras and lights, "We won! We're going home! We won the
But, as Obama noted in his speech, this is "an age without surrender
ceremonies." It's also an age without victory parades. As he said, "we
must earn victory through the success of our partners and the strength
of our own nation." That's a bit vague, though, and that's why Obama's
speech laid out the elements of the Iraq success in terms that seemed
pretty much identical to what George W. Bush would have said. We
succeeded in toppling Saddam Hussein. We nurtured an Iraqi effort to
craft a democratic structure. After considerable bloodshed, we managed
to foster a reasonable amount of civic stability in the country so the
Iraqi people can continue their halting pursuit of their own destiny.
Thus, said the president, "This completes a transition to Iraqi
responsibility for their own security." He added, "Through this
remarkable chapter in the history of the United States and Iraq, we have
met our responsibility. Now, it's time to turn the page."
That's probably enough of a legend to fortify the good feelings of those
young men yelling of victory from the backs of Stryker Brigade vehicles
on the way out of Iraq. But getting to even that degree of a war legend
in Afghanistan will be far more difficult. And, as the endgame looms in
that distant land, the administration will have to grapple not only with
how to prosecute the war and foster a safe exit but also with how to
preserve a suitable legend for that war once the shooting stops.

Hello Lou,:mickeywav
I just recently found your podcast back in Nov. of last year. (By the way I have been searching for others out there and none have captured my Disney spirit like yours, Big THANKS! :mickeykid) Ok enough of the brown-nosing and back to my inquiry. My family and I are heading off to The World for the, well I honsestly don't know how many times. We have eaten at numerous restaurants and want to completely shake up our experience. We will be celebrating my 7 year old daughters B-Day a little late and want to add in some dining fun for her as well. The party also includes my wife, myself, and my 3 yr old son. Alright, well now that I was long winded enough and haven't asked a thing here goes. I need some dining advice for some good eaten (points to Lou "resident mastication expert"). We will have the dining plan (1 table service, 1 counter service, and snack). Now this is where I need your superior expertise in Disney food. We have 6 nights of fun and food so if I may ask your advice where in The World should we go for some good eaten? We want at least one character dining experience, a good steak dinner (Brown Derby used to be our favorite until our last visit and they removed the filet from the menu) and I would also like any input regarding our counter service meals to boot. As always Lou we appreciate your sincere dedication to our love of the Mouse and also any input you can lend to my next dining extravaganza.
Thanks much,
Peter Stan (I may grow old, but will never, ever outgrow the Mouse!)
P.S. I am glad to say that this is my first Mouse-Fan trip, thanks for some other great advice. Also I don't want to exclude any other advice or recommendations from other members, I just pointed at Lou for his obvious expertise in the realm of food! And besides I heard about his ability to get a private table in PA! :lol:

Contrarian super-brain James Surowiecki, author of the Wisdom of Crowds and a weekly New Yorker column on the economy, wrote last Thursday about how why the conventional wisdom that real estate prices never actually go down is wrong.
His argument is that the median housing prices on which newspapers report don't take into account:
–> inflation (already noted by the NYT) (inflation adjusted prices dropped eight percent between 1979 and 1991);
–> the incentives builders offer home-buyers, which are effectively discounts;
–> that new houses get bigger and nicer every year.
Surowiecki cites Yale economist Robert Schiller who created an index of hundred year-old houses and how their prices have changed over the century, sometimes going down, sometimes going up. This provides a more accurate and sobering portrait of the real estate market.
Surowiecki ends his column by noting that that you can sleep in a house but not in other other investments, like a stock. This points up a few other criteria to consider when trying to decide whether to buy a house:
–> The commissions on houses, which are higher than on stocks;
–> Taxes and repair costs and, on the positive side,
–> The benefit of government-sponsored mortgages (most people can't buy stocks on margin the way they can buy houses via a mortgage, and the interest on mortgages is tax-deductible).
–>What you'd have to pay in rent if you didn't own a house.
The article is a delight to read, mostly because Surowiecki is such a good writer — effortlessly popularizing big, complicated ideas every week. I've spent the past few years concocting schemes to meet Surowiecki so we could pitch a few STUPENDOUS ideas for his column.
The most recent effort was on a blustery evening last winter when I walked into the lobby of the Conde Nast building, claiming I had an appointment. The security guards had already noticed me trundling around Times Square for half an hour with a wheelie and briefcase in tow, trying to get the guts to lie to their faces.
They asked me to stand to one side while they made call after call, each more dubious than the last. After five minutes I said, "Forget about it." They insisted. Other people, respectable people, in suits much better than My Good Suit, were being whisked inside. No city makes you feel like a hick — or when you are trying not to be a hick, like an impostor — like New York.
Then finally a security guard put the phone down and announced that "Mr. Surowiecki doesn't even work in this building." An army of comforting thoughts and rationalizations was at that moment routed and took full flight. Ten minutes later, on the subway headed for the airport, it was a relief to be surrounded by people who didn't despise me.
The sad part is that I had been in the hallowed halls of the New Yorker before, attending a workshop. On the elevator ride down, I met a Conde Nast employee and asked the only question that came to mind: "How's the food here?" "Gourmet & Bon Appetit are in this building too," he said, then paused. "It's awesome." I wanted to ask if he meant the food in particular, or just everything, but already knew.

on November 19, 2012 Source: Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship
The entrepreneurship policy environment in emerging economies may not be a significant obstacle to starting and growing new firms after all – at least if you ask high-growth entrepreneurs in those countries.
That is one of the overarching findings in a paper released last week by Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW) following a survey of more than 3,000 high-impact entrepreneurs in 34 countries. The GEW Policy Survey, conducted by the Monitor Group, was intended to capture the opinions and perceptions of entrepreneurs to help inform discussions during GEW events being held in 130 countries from November 12-18, 2012.
"Since Global Entrepreneurship Week began in 2008, the understanding of entrepreneurship has evolved considerably among policymakers," said Jonathan Ortmans, president of Global Entrepreneurship Week. "Many countries now see the importance of new firm formation to economic growth, poverty reduction and stability – and they are taking steps to address it."Of the countries surveyed, China, India, Kenya, New Zealand and the United States had the most positive overall opinions of the policies in place to promote their growth.
"The relatively positive perception that high-impact entrepreneurs from Sub-Saharan Africa have about their region's policies is probably most surprising," said Pedro Arboleda, partner at the Monitor Group. "One has traditionally had an image of that region as being an especially difficult place to start and run a business, but the survey results tell a different story."
Kenyan entrepreneurs revealed positive attitudes, especially regarding policies related to university-level entrepreneurship skills development, the perceived legitimacy of entrepreneurship and the belief of a risk-taking mindset.
Although the United States ranked among the most positive policy environments for entrepreneurs, survey results identified several areas that could be improved, including those relating to government regulations as applied across industries and the way IPOs are handled.
The five countries surveyed with the most negative overall perceptions were Greece, Venezuela, Ukraine, Andorra and Poland.Severe economic conditions in Greece have caused the number of startups and small firms to spiral downward since 2010 – creating a strong sense of dissatisfaction and urgency among its entrepreneurs. The most significantly negative policies were those related to the lack of adequate sources of capital, the level of income tax and the poor mentorship and support environment available to Greek entrepreneurs.

AMZN Priced for Perfection: Should Investors Worry?
By Richard Saintvilus - 04/27/12 - 11:20 AM EDT
Tickers in this article: AMZN
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- While I have never believed that there is such a thing as a "perfect stock," I have always remained cautious at stocks that I believed are "priced for perfection." Investors are often quick to throw valuation metrics out of corporate windows in favor of "zeal," a quality that flies in and attaches to names such as Chipotle
Perfect Problems
Amazon is without question one of the best tech stories today. It is a wonderful company with one of the top three visionary CEOs in Jeff Bezos. But the stock is expensive -- there is no way to spin this. I have never been a fan to the so-called "premium pricing." I will concede that it has never served as an impediment to growth stocks like Amazon. The question for "perfect stocks" has always involved the challenges with growing into the valuation. In its Q4 report, the concern for Amazon seems to be its growing expenses and what appear to be shrinking margins. The company has always demonstrated a commitment to tackle new markets and seek growth opportunities. To that end, it had taken on facilities expansion in an effort to provide broader ranges of entertainment delivered over its new Kindle Fire tablet as well as the launching of its movie-streaming Prime service to compete with NetflixThe Perfect Quarter
On Thursday, the company reported Q1 earnings results that blew away analysts' estimates. The company reported net sales for the quarter of $13.2 billion -- representing an increase of 34% from the $10 billion that it reported a year ago. Consensus expectations for revenue were $12.9 billion. The company said its rise in sales was driven largely by increased demand of the Kindle Fire. Amazon also reported operating income of $192 million compared with $322 million a year ago. As great as these numbers were, what blew away the street was its EPS -- which came in at a stunning $0.28 cents, four times better than the consensus EPS estimates of $.07. Amazon: 1.5% Is 'Good Enough' >> In terms of outlook, Amazon said it expects revenue in the current quarter to grow between 20% and 34%, or to between $11.9 billion and $13.3 billion, which includes the negative impact of foreign exchange movements. Ahead of the guidance, analysts had expected second-quarter revenue of $12.8 billion. That was higher than the midpoint of Amazon's forecast of $12.6 billion. Overall, I have to say that I was exceedingly impressed with the report and the company was right for having made the significant level of investments in its infrastructure. Essentially, it paid money to grow -- a decision that was met with severe scorn. Facebook Has No Business Being Compared to Apple, Google and Amazon >> But today it is clear that the company is feeling a sense of vindication, and rightfully so. The company's goal was to build a system to support its vision of a larger business and in doing so it incurred some diseconomies of scale -- a sacrifice that (I assure you) many companies (going forward) will now look to make.Bottom Line
As perfect as Amazon must be to maintain its lofty valuation, it seems the company is executing to perfection. Though it often remains in the shadows of AppleTickers in this article: AMZN

Jul 8, 2012 4:50 PM by CJ, The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - An island offering a secluded beach, great fishing and stunning views of the San Francisco skyline is up for sale - and at a discounted price.
Realtor Steven Higbee says the owner of Red Rock Island has lowered the asking price for the 6-acre mass of rock tucked away in a northern part of San Francisco Bay to $5 million. The island was on the market earlier this year for $22 million.
Higbee says he advised the owner that the best way to move the property is by "whittling away at the price."
He says the island contains manganese in its rocky outcroppings and that mineral rights for the property are negotiable.
There are no structures on Red Rock Island, which is accessible only by boat or helicopter. The island is about six miles north of San Francisco, just off the south side of the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Molly!
Facts about Molly
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
Molly's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Molly is a 4 year old Female American Pit Bull Terrier
She loves kids and other Dogs, medium size or larger...does not like cats. She has all her shots, she is fixed, & micro chipped.
Walks great on leash and is obedient. Only thing she needs to work on is she jumps, thinks she is a lap dog. She is housebroken. Very playful but calms down quickly and just wants to cuddle.
Other Pets at Woofs, Wiggles n Wags Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Molly, a Scottsdale American Pit Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Scottsdale, or seeking a American Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Scottsdale.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Scottsdale 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 Scottsdale 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 American Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with American Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Scottsdale paves the way for another one to be saved.

68 % 9 lbs. Belgian Pilsner Malt 15 % 2 lbs. Rahr White Wheat Malt 8 % 1 lb. Belgian Candi Syrup, Clear 8 % 1 lb. Flaked Rice 2 % 4 oz. Acidulated Malt 75 min. 1 oz. Mt Hood 10 min. 1 oz. Styrian Goldings 5 min. 1 oz. Crystal 8.8% abv You can adjust the OG to account for the voraciousness of this 3711 yeast, it's a killer. I will be aiming for an OG of 1.062 for my next 10 gallon batch but I do not mind the higher abv at all. Single infusion BIAB with a 1.5 qt/lb mash ratio. Mash temp was 153F on my lab thermometer dropping to 151F. I have since purchased a NIST certified HB blue spirit thermometer and it reads three degrees higher so maybe it was 156F. Anyways, I mashed for 60 minutes and started my boil with 105 minutes since my volumes were a little over. Everything went perfect otherwise. I hit 1.070 after cooling to 76F. I pitched my decanted 1 liter starter and things took off. This yeast ate through it all until it reached 1.004 as an FG. After 4 weeks I bottled with 6 ounces of dextrose. Carbed up in less than 1 week. My first all-grain This glass is 8 weeks post brew date. I would confirm that the taste profile is onto a Colette from Great Divide. It's got that chewy mouth feel and fruitiness I so desire from saisons in that range for the bone dryness, stupid amount of citrus flavor, and bittering of some versions are off-putting to my palette. The hops played an integral part in the nose and taste. Crystal was a good late addition choice for aroma, the Styrian for earthiness, and Mt Hood for the bittering profile. My local water is fairly neutral so I went with a little saurmaltz for this lighter brew. I used the flaked rice to lighten the body as a balance to the mash temp and yeast characteristics plus to bare a close resemblance to what Colette has as attributes. Good lacing and carbonation throughout the glass. I cannot get enough of this and will brew a 10 gallon soon. Unfortunately this brew left me only 7 bottles left since it was a commission by my brother to brew (He paid for the ingredients).
Drink it fresh and it is best that way. Hops die down after a few months so more aroma hops could be better. Maybe another ounce of Crystal at 5min.
Batch size was 5.0 gallons and boil length was 105 mins
