Senate delays vote on Internet sales tax until May
The U.S. Senate has delayed a vote on an Internet sales tax until May, after a handful of senators blocked lawmakers from voting on the legislation this week.
The U.S. Senate has delayed a vote on an Internet sales tax until May, after a handful of senators blocked lawmakers from voting on the legislation this week.
A handful of lawmakers have stalled the U.S. Senate from voting on legislation that would require large Internet and catalog sellers to collect state sales taxes from their customers.
The U.S. online advertising industry has not lived up to a promise to stop the online tracking of Internet users who ask advertisers to do so, a senior U.S. senator said Wednesday.
The U.S. Senate has voted 74-20 to close debate and move to a final vote on a bill allowing states to collect sales tax from out-of-state Internet and catalog retailers.
The U.S. Senate has moved toward a vote to impose sales tax on most Internet purchases, with lawmakers likely to vote to close debate on legislation next week.
The US Senate has overwhelmingly passed a nonbinding proposal to allow states to collect sales tax on Internet sellers that have no presence within their borders.
A group of U.S. senators have offered a nonbinding amendment to a fiscal year 2014 budget resolution allowing states to collect sales taxes on Internet sales and end the tax-free shopping that many shoppers enjoy online.
A group of U.S. lawmakers has introduced legislation that would require law enforcement agencies to get court-ordered search warrants before obtaining a suspect's mobile phone location or GPS data, instead of using prosecution-issued subpoenas.
Momentum is growing in the U.S. Congress to overturn a U.S. Library of Congress ruling that took mobile phone unlocking out of the legal exemptions to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
Cyberattacks are near the top of the list of most serious threats facing the U.S., with the rivaling concerns about terrorism and North Korea, intelligence officials with President Barack Obama's administration said.
New legislation in the U.S. Senate that would allow Internet users to tell companies to stop tracking them is unnecessary and could slow e-commerce growth, some tech groups said.
New legislation introduced by a bipartisan group of 10 U.S. senators would nearly double the number of H-1B visas that companies can get each year to hire foreign high-skill workers, including technology employees.
A U.S. senator has introduced legislation that limits the ability of broadband providers to impose data caps on customers.
An effort by three U.S. senators to add an Internet sales tax amendment to a military spending bill has failed, at least for now.
The U.S. Senate has voted against moving forward on a cybersecurity bill that supporters have called critical for national security.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The Queen is the centre of all Xenomorphs in the colony-it is what births them, and is the strongest, largest, and fastest.
A Xenomorph spawned from a quadrupedal host. While not as tough as its Warrior brethren, the Runner more than makes up for it with its greater speed and agility.
This is the result of a facehugger attaching itself to a human and is therefore the most commonly known Xenomorph variant.
The result of cloning Ripley, the Queen later develops a human reproductive system giving birth to an Alien-Human Hybrid.

Nothing really, everything from the room to the customer service to the free breakfast was disappointing.
Our hot tub was broken and leaked water all over our too , causing us to get relocated to the room next door, which was also wet from the other hot tub leaking.
Ease of checking in and out. The staff were very nice and did a wonderful job.
Just wish there would have been more space on the counter for cosmetics and shaving gear.
It was just a p km ace to stay while working in tge area nothing r rd ally to speak about

More than a Nip slip. You could fit a couple <>s in the amount of skin we shouldn't have seen from her. She must have gotten really cold while her dress got really warm because that thing barely stayed on all night. So awkward v.v

A Conversation Piece
Two flower pots communicate between a window glass. A green plant that grows in the wild has many stories to tell the pot of exotic flowers. Quietly listen to them speak. Eventually, the two become one through a magnetic force that brings them together. One pot free to breath the air of the outside while the other pot shows off its' beauty to those who are on the inside.

Demon Snow Shield Short Hardtail - Men's
Excellent protectio
I've tried some of the more fancier protection such as poc and d3o ones and none of them compare to the protection that these shorts offer. Foam cushion underneath hard plastic plates means I hardly feel the impacts when I land my rump on hard pack/ice, where as without them I'd be clinching my rear in pain. The plastic plates on the butt and the hips are removable and is attached by velcro. I can see how this part can get flimsy overtime, but I'm sure its nothing some super glue can't fix.

Demon Snow Shield Vest - Men's
Great protection
I took a major spill and bruised my lumbar spine area and most likely cracked a rib while tumbling down the hill snowboarding soooo I started looking into body armor and butt pads etc.
Nice and helpful ppl at backcountry directed me towards this product although my mind was set on another piece that was out of stock at the time. Man was I glad because the protection offered on this vest is superior compared to more expensive ones!
There is foam padding thru out the chest albeit not the thickest, foam padding that runs the length of the rib cage with what feels like hard plastic on top of the foam for impact absorption (not alot of other comparable products offer this), excellent articulated plastic spine protector that runs the length of the spine and does not restrict motion along with moderate lumbar spine protection (most other armor have protection up and down the spine but offer nothing in terms of lumbar protection.
Only thing I would have to say is demon products tend to run a little small so maybe size up what you would normally wear. I'm usually a L but ordered this in an XL,also did the same thing with the demon d3o butt protector shorts

Red Total Impact Short - Men's
Tried these pair of shorts on in the store to see the fit and comfort and ended up going with another pair of shorts. The shorts itself is comfortable and allows for a full range of motion, but its the d3o protection pads that was not executed correctly. The d3o in the butt area is uncomfortable to sit on and dug into meaty buttox. Def wont be comfortable for chair lifts or falls for that matter

Full Description & DetailsWhile driving north on 287 in SE Colorado, late evening and looked up in the sky ahead of me. There were 5 bright lights hovering above me. I watched them as i continued driving, not sure as to what i had seen. One by one they disappeared until there were no more of them. Something unexplainable to me as ive never seen anything like it. Witness BackgroundSome college, Dispatcher for airline Other CommentsIve never really thought much about it till now. Ive seen space junk burn in the atmosphere and have seen things in the sky which i normally could explain, this was much different. Reported Sighting?NoYour Location:Denver ColoradoAge:40 |
Full Description & DetailsDecember 30, 1967, at approximately 7:10 p.m.,while visiting relatives in Bithlo, Florida. Bithlo is about halfway between Orlando and the Cape. Watched UFO glide over mobile home without sound. UFO was joined by another craft that came from another angle. Both crafts landed in a remote area less than a quarter-mile from mobile home. Moments later, a formation of helicoptors and two jets began flying over the general area of where the two crafts had landed.
Witness BackgroundI graduated from high schoo, did a four year hitch in the Navy. I worked for Bendix Corporation during the Apollo program. I am now semi-retired. I am currently writing a book about the UFO experiences that I had. Other CommentsI don't believe that UFOs exist. I know they exist. What I saw was unidentified but definitely extraterrestrial. I've been told that our military has things flying around up there that are fantastic but what I saw didn't belong to us. Reported Sighting?NoName:JE OglesbyYour Location:DeLand, FlAge:63 |

The UFO was a single ball-like object, which made no sound as it moved across the sea.

Full Description & DetailsI am sending a photos of objects that I did not actually see, but caught on film. The one daylight disk(?) was taken about 11:00 am heading north toward Ridgecrest, CA. The other photo was taken early the next morning, facing the Scodie Mountains west of Ridgecrest. The photo of Red Mountain is certainly the more convincing of the two, since an object can be seen rather clearly upon enlargement. A friend of mine took a photo of the Scodie Mountains at the same time as me, and he also captured a blurry white object on film. Obviously there is no clear image seen in this white blur, but something must have made it. Witness BackgroundI have a Ph.D. in music and work at a college bookstore. Other CommentsI am definitely interested in UFO's and am looking for the truth about them. Obviously, this is not an easy task. I am suspicious that the Navy has close ties to UFO's (as I have read), so thought I would look around the China Lake Naval Weapons Station, which, strangely, is located FAR from the ocean and adjacent to the Mojave Desert. I was surprised that I captured something on film in that region, as I did not see anything while searching intentionally.

Full Description & DetailsMY FRIEND AND I HAD JUST FINISHED OUR LAST 'O' LEVEL EXAMS FOR THE YEAR. WE LEFT SCHOOL AND WERE ON OUR WAY TO HIS HOUSE ONLY FIVE MINUTES FROM THE SCHOOL IN A SUBURB CALLED EMERALD HILL. AS WE TURNED INTO HIS STREET, WE SAW ALL THESE PEOPLE LINING THE STREET ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM. WE IMMEDIATELY SAW WHY AS THIS HUGE ORANGE BALL HOVERED ABOVE THE TREE LINE STRAIGHT IN FRONT OF US. THERE WERE NO LIGHTS AND WE DIDN'T HEAR ANY NOISE, BUT WE RACED DOWN TO THE END OF THE STREET AND IT DISSAPPEARED BEHIND THE TREES. WE TURNED AROUND AND CAME BACK UP LOOKING BEHIND US AND IT APPEARED FROM BEHIND THE TREES ONCE AGAIN. I ESTIMATE THE DISTANCE TO BE AROUND 400 OR 500 METERS AWAY. WE QUICKLY TURNED AROUND AGAIN AND RACED DOWN TO THE END OF THE STREET AGAIN WHEN AGAIN IT DISAPPEARED BEHIND THE TREES. IT NEVER CAME BACK UP, BUT IT WAS AN EXPERIENCE TO CONSIDER. THERE WERE MANY WITNESSES, PROBABLY 20 OR 30 AND MY CLOSE FRIEND DAVID AND MYSELF.
Witness BackgroundBORN IN MALAWI, GREW UP IN RHODESIA. PRINTER BY TRADE. Other CommentsThere are without doubt UFO's flying around us. Recently there was a sighting (Jan. 2004) near Melbourne, Australia, and I had a close look at the photograph in question. I don't believe there is any question that the person who took the photograph would have falsified the report. After studying the photo, I estimated that the UFO in the photo would have travelled around 1.5 meters during the exposure. It was a bright day and if the shutter speed of the camera was 1/500sec., then a quick calculation reveals the UFO was travelling at Approx. 750 meters per second, or a modest 2700 kms an hour. Does this sound unreasonable? It would be interesting to find out, maybe from someone at NASA, at what speed, given its approximate size, does an object become invisible? Would this speed of 750 meters per second make an object invisible? Yes, I think so !!

Full Description & Detailsduring summer holiday, my parents, two brothers and campground neighbours witnessed 2 lights in the sky flying on a parallel course at great speed.

Other CommentsI am very interested in the subject of UFO's since the sighting described above.
Reported Sighting?YesReported To:nearby star-observatoryYour Location:Amersfoort - the Netherlands |
Full Description & DetailsI was a passenger in a car, it was about 9-10pm, and I looked out the passenger side window and noticed swirling lights above the clouds. I didn't know what it was and didn't think much about it. Until a couple of days later a friend had mentioned to me an article in the local paper about many calls to the police department regarding the swirling lights. The reporter did some research and couldn't find a source or reason for the lights. Hmmmm....

Do You Know the Difference Between Pearl Jam and Hootie? Take Our Quiz
Marco Annunziata via WikiMedia CommonsEddie Vedder or Darius Rucker? |
Did you know that there are people out there -- kids, mostly -- who can't tell Pearl Jam and Hootie and the Blowfish apart?
No, seriously, we've witnessed it with our own eyes.
We understand their confusion. Because, for all the purported differences between these two acts in their '90s heyday -- Hootie were called soft sell-outs while Pearl Jam were lauded as crusading hard rockers -- 20 years later they sound surprisingly alike.
Lead singers Eddie Vedder and Darius Rucker have somewhat similar voices, after all. And, yeah, maybe you can do any '90s song with just vowels.
Does all of this just show how lame the '90s were? Or are the groups truly different when it comes to their style, their lyrics, and their politics? Can you yourself tell the difference?
Take our quiz to find out.
So, how'd you do? Even if you passed (90% or better) you won't be able to rest easy, knowing that lots of millennials (or whatever they're called) can't.
Next time you're wondering, "Is music education that important for my child?" consider that they might well one day believe that Yellow Ledbetter is the color of Darius Rucker's cowboy hat.

The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Xinhua "Interview" by Ted Regencia: "Ten Years After 9/11: Is America
Safer?" - Xinhua
Monday September 5, 2011 17:35:56 GMT
NEW YORK, Sept. 5 (Xinhua) -- Progress has been made in securing the U.S.
10 years after the 9/11, but "major threats" remain from al-Qaeda
affiliates based in unstable states around the world, a foreign policy
expert told Xinhua.
Stuart Gottlieb, who teaches foreign policy and counterterrorism at
Columbia University, said his analysis reveals the country is now safer in
part because of President Obama's decision to extend many of the Bush
administration's counterterrorism tactics"The United States is safer than
before 9/11," he said. "We have a better understanding of the nature of
the threat."Gottlie b pointed out that many of the Bush administration's
policies including the assassinations of suspected terrorists using drone
strikes and "aggressive" surveillance remain in place more than two years
into the Obama presidency."The reason that the Obama administration kept
those policies is because they worked," Gottlieb told Xinhua, adding that
he finds it "ironic" considering Obama's promise "to reverse or undo all
of Bush's hard-line terrorism policies."Still, he warned about the
existence of terrorist groups in Pakistan and Afghanistan, as well as
affiliated groups in Somalia, Nigeria, the Philippines and Indonesia.
These groups, he said, " have the capacity to engage in major terrorist
attacks if they are committed to do so.""That being said, we're still
confronting terrorist threats that seek to get inside the country and kill
some people," Gottlieb said.New York Congressman Jose Serrano is a
long-time Democra tic critic of many of Bush policies. He said he feels
"more secure now. ""I can tell you that a lot has been done for the
security and I don't think it's by accident that there hasn't been another
attack, " Serrano said in a separate interview Sunday. "I think there's
also been a lot of intelligence work, a lot of security work."But Serrano
stressed the U.S. cannot compromise the rights of individual citizens in
favor of advancing security.In the past, Serrano, who represents a Bronx
district with high immigrant and Muslim populations, had said trials for
suspected terrorists should be held in civilian, not military, courts."I
think it was Benjamin Franklin who said anybody who trades rights for
security deserves neither rights nor security," Serrano said, apparently
referring to continued operation of the Guantanamo military prison in
Cuba, which is being used by the U.S. government to hold foreign
fighters.During the campaign, Obama had vowed to close Guantanamo, but it
remains open until now, something that Gottlieb also noted in his Xinhua
interview."We've seen a fairly fluid transition from Bush to Obama despite
all the so-called promises of change from the Obama administration,"
Gottlieb added.As this developed, Gottlieb warned that Pakistan remains
the " number one" on the list of the U.S. counterterrorism effort because
of "active" jihadist movements that also pose threat to the state."If
there's some sort of Islamist radical jihad takeover of Pakistan, then
that's the biggest challenge," he said.The South Asian nuclear power poses
a "tricky" situation for the U.S. because it is playing a "double game" as
an American ally and as supporter of more "radical groups" like the
Taliban in Afghanistan," Gottlieb stressed, noting Pakistan's geopolitical
interest and rivalry with India.Gottlieb said the death of Osama bin Laden
did not necessarily create a new lineup of fighters and jihadists, but
other terror groups have always existed separate from the al-Qaeda
leader.Meanwhile, Gottlieb, who once served as foreign advisors to
Senators Charles Schumer of New York and Christopher Dodd of Connecticut,
said the Arab Spring creates a political opportunity for young Arabs in
the Middle East, but could also result in power vacuums that raise
profiles of extremist groups and increase their recruiting efforts in the
Muslim world.(Description of Source: Beijing Xinhua in English -- China's

10 Yetis PR News
10 Yetis Insight Blog - How to Determine the Target Media for your PR Campaign
Howdy folks, Nick here with some more Yeti insight into the wonderful world of PR. Today I'll be guiding you through our thoughts on how to determine your target media. Getting the right media targets can make or break your campaign, so investing thought and time into the right direction will pay dividends if done correctly. So, sit back and relax for my thoughts on how to get this right, what methods to employ and some small things that can be done to really make a difference in targeting the right people and making sure they cover your brand.
Who you want to target will depend on what kind of campaign you are running, so to cover as many bases as possible, the below tips are for both a traditional and social PR campaign.
First things first you have to remove yourself from your own thoughts and brand and put yourself in the position of the journalists or target media then also the audience you are trying to reach. Quite often, things can become over-complicated and introspective if you don't do this. Try to think less about what you want to say, but what will people want to read in what you want to say. Doing this will keep your campaign appealing but relevant at the same time.
Do your research. Now, many of you reading this may think, 'ummmmmm, of course you muppet!' but I cannot stress just how important this is. Firstly, and very simply, see which publications have covered similar subjects to that of your campaign. Make sure you not only know who has covered these subjects, but when and how often. It's key to also look further than traditional publications' print and online work, get stuck into the social and blogging world. See who is talking about the subjects, how often and how loud their voice is. It's so much easier to get good results if you influence and target these types of people. Their word is often considered gospel and can be shared on a frightening scale, so not only will this get your word out quicker, but your exposure will be far more organic.
Once you know the key targets, get to know their publications or outlets inside out. Know when they have their daily/weekly meetings, lunch, cigarette breaks, whatever, almost as if you would know your own agenda. This will help you get into a routine with your own day so that you can develop a timetable for your day to fit in with theirs.
Let's make no mistake, it's always a good idea to see what is being said about your competitors and more importantly, who is saying it and when. Keep one eye on their work as you build up to your campaign and exploit any gaps in the sector to your advantage, but making sure it's relevant.
When you know who is writing about your subject start compiling media lists, ensuring you focus on these key targets, but also building a broad collection of others who cover the area in general. This will ensure that you don't miss out on any untapped opportunities with other publications, who might not necessarily be on your immediate wish list, but increase the likelihood of coverage.
Build Relationships. As we've talked about, getting a bit more social with your approach also goes a long way. Like all of us, (well, most of us) the people you want to cover your work, have egos, so it never hurts to play to this. Get to know a few key targets or bloggers socially or over email/telephone, share their work (if it's decent of course), let them know of your presence. This will go a long way into getting you recognised as a brand and increase the likelihood of your campaign gaining traction.
Finally, keep your ear to the ground with movements within the industry. Staying abreast with comings, goings and structure of the media will mean you can react swiftly and not miss out on any opportunities. Quite often, if you've developed relationships with certain contacts, they will let you know when they are moving around and request you keep them up to date with your campaign, meaning that you keep the contact, whilst also broadening your range.
So there we have it folks, not an exhaustive account, but hopefully some good tips to get that campaign to the right people!

10 Yetis Examples of Good and Bad PR- Friday 23rd January 2015
It's Friday! And to celebrate the weekend, we thought we'd get personal... on the PR front. Here's the good and bad PR of the day, celebrating and commiserating with the people in the headlines.
Good PR
Josie Cunningham has benefitted from taking part in a documentary which aired last night, revealing that a lot of the controversial statements she's made previously have all been part of a grand scheme to keep her in the public eye, as opposed to her actual real-life opinions. Who'da thunk it.
As a result, lots of people have changed their opinions on Josie, respecting her desire to provide for her children above everything else, particularly her own reputation. Stories of her gruelling childhood bullying also softened the British public's heart, resulting in many tweets of symphathy today.
The trouble is, as Josie said herself, if the public like her, what will keep her raking in the money? Without the controversy, there's not much to pin her to the general consciousness. It will be very interesting to see how this develops.
Bad PR
Adrian Chiles is having a pretty rough time of it at the moment. After extended period of criticism for his presenting prowess, ITV has finally dropped him 'with immediate effect', although at the moment the reasons for his hasty departure remain undisclosed at the moment - leading only, of course, to further fuel the rumour mill.
The media is reporting huge celebrations on Twitter, as Tweeps all over the country rejoice in Adrian's dismissal. Oh dear, not a good day for the Chiles and it's likely that things could get far worse when the reasons become clear.

The cast of Eastenders get my Good PR award today.
The 'Who Killed Lucy?' storyline has been receiving some great attention recently, building some tense anticipation for the 'live show' reveal, which is happening next month.
The cast and producers of the show have been adding to the anticipation, first with Jake Wood (who plays Max Branning) revealing an 'I killed Lucy' sign at a live darts match.
Now the soap has gone one step further, with the full cast arriving at last night's National Television Awards in a red bus with a banner saying 'Eastenders: Who Killed Lucy?' covering the side.
The show then revealed a big clue half way through the NTAs, with a box opening to reveal an iPod and a sign saying 'this is the last thing Lucy heard.'
The hints have only fuelled the intense questions around the biggest 'whodunnit' in British soap history. WHO THE HELL KILLED LUCY?

Bad PR
Today's Bad PR award goes to Argos.
The giant retailer have been accused of racism after different skin coloured dolls were sold at different prices.
Black and oriental dolls were sold at £10 cheaper than those with white skin, despite the dolls being absolutely identical. The white 'Carole Calin' doll sold at £34.99, whilst others were priced at £24.99.
Critics have blasted the move, stating that it is unacceptable to suggest that white dolls are better than others.
Are Argos racist for pricing black and oriental doll cheaper than white equivalent? http://t.co/aY7o9txNjN pic.twitter.com/WxlibJnoPX

Millgate Bed and Breakfast in Masham, North Yorkshire, and Lawton Court Hotel in Llandudno, North Wales, beat off the stiff competition from around the globe to come out on top in the 2015 Travellers' Choice awards. At just £74 and £38 per room a night, the two establishments have proved that money and cost does not mean a better overall experience when it comes to outstanding quality, service, staff, food and location.
The North Yorkshire based Millgate B&B, bagged the top place in the World's Top 10 B&Bs category after receiving more than 350 excellent reviews on the TripAdvisor website, with one reviewer describing it as the 'best B&B we have ever been to'. Interestingly, the lowest rating the B&B received was by a sole traveller who described it as 'average', whilst just three have said it was 'very good', and no one has EVER rated it as 'poor' or 'terrible'.
The Lawton Court Hotel, located in North Wales, emerged at first place in the World's Top 10 Bargain Hotels category, with previous guests recognising everything from the owners and the staff friendliness to the food and its seafront location views. What's more, the hotel also received second place in the World's Top 10 Small Hotels category and came fourth in the world for service.
Seems as though whilst many of us may be craving a getaway to warmer climates at this time of year, the hotels to explore and visit in the UK are all too easy to miss!

It may be riding high on the buzz of awards season presently, after being nominated for various accolades across the Academy Awards, Golden Globes and SAG Awards, but the film 'American Sniper' has found itself at the centre of some complaints from cinema-goers this week.
The movie, directed by living legend Clint Eastwood and starring Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller, has been targeted by critics for the use of fake and unrealistic dolls during certain scenes. In California (where American Sniper filmed), a work permit, a doctor's note, a nurse, a parent, and a studio teacher must all be on set if a baby is working, so its understandably a lot of effort to work with kids. Additionally, infants can only work up to 20 minutes per day.
Taking all of this into account, the fake babies used have drawn much criticism with many reviewers claiming their enjoyment of the film was affected due to the obviousness of dolls during pivotal scenes between Cooper and Miller.
On the website HitFix, for example, reviewer Drew McWeeny wrote, 'I get so distracted by the baby... the entire rest of the scene, that's all I can look at.' 'Neither one of them looks like they are comfortable holding it,' McWeeny continued, speaking on the actors. 'Cooper in particular looks like he's just plain never held a baby.'

10 Yetis Examples of Good and Bad PR - Tuesday 20th January
Good afternoon folks, this is a bit later in the day than usual, but here's today's good and bad PR picked just for you... enjoy - Sam
Good PR
Richard Branson and Virgin really do think of everything, don't they? There aren't many markets that Virgin haven't entered these days, and they've now ticked hotels off their list with the creation of Virgin Hotel properties.
20 Virgin Hotels are planned by 2025, but the first has just opened its doors in Chicago. It's a 26-storey, art deco hotel like no other, that's for sure, boasting:
> No formal check in desk
> 250 guest rooms with a two-chamber layout
> Bedroom accessories controlled by iPhone and iPad apps
> Original building features
> The Commons Club, a members-only inspired space for guests
> Social hour, where all drinks are free between 6pm and 7pm
> A patent-pending, ergonomically designed bed
> No additional charges for room service
> Free WiFi
> And much, much more...
If Virgin haven't yet entered your market, you should possibly be worried. No doubt they eventually will, and they'll kick ass at whatever it is!
Bad PR
It was only yesterday I was reading that Coronation Street were bringing back Tina Platt and her daughter, Sarah, and that they'd recently cast Katie Redford, 19 years old, to play the 14 year old. My initial thought was that she was really pretty, but had the right look / baby face in order to play someone 5 years younger than herself.
Little did we know, or ITV, that she was lying about her age and has infact recently turned 25 years old!
Dun, dun, duuuuun!
People have searched for Katie on social media and come across the pictures of her recent birthday, which no doubt alerted ITV to the situation. Katie has since been released from the role (so, she lost her job) and ITV have stated they're looking for another actress to play Sarah, although they may already have someone in mind.
Katie's agent, Jo McLintock, has come out to say that lying was not the actresses idea, nor was it her idea to change her CV, create a new Twitter and so on. The phrase 'illadvised' has been thrown around a lot, but whoever was at fault, it's not just Katie that's lost out; the casting team behind Corrie are adamant they won't be using this particular agent/agency for casting anymore.
Lying doesn't achieve anything. If you're not the right age, deal with it and get over it. Yes, it sucks, but surely it's better to get something you want by telling the truth, than getting it by deceiving everyone?! That being said, how anyone expected to get away with this lie is beyond me - social media will always out the truth.

Last October we made a sojourn out to Las Vegas to cover the release of Harlem Liqueur, and while we were there we were treated to a few sips (ok, more than a few...you got us) of Nolet's Silver Dry Gin. It was love at first taste, and ever since we've been burning incense and chanting to the spirit world hoping to get a crack at a review bottle. That day has finally arrived, and we'll do our best to post the review sometime before the next presidential election (at the rate we're going lately anyway).
Learn more at NoletsGin.com. We shamelessly stole the above image from Thirsty in LA - he was with us in Vegas when we first tried the stuff so see what he has to say about it.
Today we discovered our favorite new show. It's called Workaholics, it's on Comedy Central, and it's the exact goddamn show we would have written if we were funny, talented, or the least bit driven to succeed. Instead, we watched 6 episodes back to back on Hulu when we were supposed to be finishing a project. This little bit wasn't in any of the episodes we saw, but we figured it fit better with the theme of our site than the concept of "third love."*
It's only a promo-type-thing but hey it's three dudes doing kegstands at work - how can you go wrong with that? Check out other clips at Comedy Central.

Im not saying anyones wrong, but considering how available arms are to those who want them, and considering that piracy is the major income producing industry in Somalia, I wouldnt be surprised if there was an escalation on the part of the pirates with rockets, etc. At least if history is any guide. Thats the Chicago way. Im sure theyll be a shakeout, but the pirates wholl be left, will be the really committed ones.

Sunday, January 25, 2015
Dear Reader,
Three years ago, there was an opportunity in the Colombian city of Medellin to buy a condo for as little as $80 per square foot that generated a rental yield of 8%. That's a strong yield on some of the most inexpensive real estate I have seen in any world-class city.
Real estate prices in Medellin have risen each year since I made this recommendation. Rent increases have followed, so you can still command that 8% plus yield by buying a condo here and rent it long term.
For example, you could buy a high-end condo for $135,000 here, rent it long term and unfurnished for $1,085 per month. Buy cheap and you can earn a strong yield with the prospect for capital appreciation. With visiting foreign executives and a growing tourism and retirement market, the short-term rental market is also very strong.
Let me remind you why Colombia, and especially Medellin, is on my radar.
Colombia's middle class is on the up. The income of the average Colombian has doubled in less than a decade. The rich are getting richer. (The free report I told you about on Friday reveals more about the emergence of the new middle class—It's yours here.)
But despite this new prosperity real estate prices still reflect Medellin's past—not its present nor future potential. (Note that real estate here sells in Colombian pesos. So, you also get diversification from the dollar. In recent months the dollar has significantly strengthened against all major currencies including the Colombian peso.)
In Medellin, you can see the signs of this new middle class everywhere. From one of the new cafés or restaurants along the Golden Mile, you'll see streets packed with modern cars.
Foreigners have started to retire here or come as high-earning contractors (mostly in the resource industry).
Multinationals like Hewlett-Packard are making Medellin their home. Domestic Medellin-based multinationals are strong in sectors such as cement, financial services, and food products. Although the action for big oil and banking is in Bogota, that city is already bursting with traffic jams and choking in smog—and it's getting expensive.
On Wall Street they call Colombia "the next Brazil." And with good cause. I've been bullish on the opportunities in Northeast Brazil (and Fortaleza in particular) for the past five years. Prices of pre-construction condos have as much as doubled there.
Colombia has gold, oil, and hydroelectric power. After two decades of liberalization, the government is one of the most forward and outward looking in the region. Debt levels are low. They're strongly and ambitiously pro-business and realize that the key to their country's future is to help lift people out of poverty.
Demographics are on Colombia's side, too. Approximately 40% of the population is under the age of 20. They're growing in confidence and optimism. They see a future for themselves and for their country. Many Colombians are returning from North America and Europe with skills and ambition.
A $100 billion infrastructure plan is in the works (and desperately needed) over the coming decade. There are also plans for roads, airports, and even an $8 billion Chinese-funded railway that will compete with the Panama Canal. A government program calls for 200,000 new middle-class houses. The government is focused on initiatives to improve social mobility.
Don't expect all this progress to be without turbulence. Colombia is slowly healing after decades of civil and narco-related war. Scary pictures may flash across your television screens from time to time. But it's because of this that we have such an opportunity here.
The people are already enjoying a peace dividend. They won't easily hand that back. The fighters and revolutionaries are old and tired. The notorious Medellin cartel was based here. Headed up by the infamous and powerful Pablo Escobar.
But that reputation couldn't be further from what I found.
Medellin is an extremely pleasant city of 2.5 million people (3.5 million if you include the outer valleys). At 5,000 feet elevation, the weather is perfect. Most days have sunshine and temperatures in the 70's F. The leafy, high-end area of El Poblado in particular is a great place to sip coffee or enjoy a nice meal in the shade. Almost everything is a delightful stroll away.
The locals are warm, welcoming, friendly, and genuinely happy that foreigners are beginning to visit their country. They're aware that Medellin's reputation for many is still one of out-of-control drug cartels.
The present-day Medellin I visited was very different. There's a real café culture here. Like you'll find in a leafy European city. But here, you get to sip your coffee or dine outside year-round—scorching summer heat or cool winters won't cramp your style. You'll find great restaurants, trendy bars, and fancy boutiques.
Minutes away from El Poblado, the Golden Mile of banks, offices, boutiques, and outdoor eateries is buzzing with traffic and commerce. At weekends, the nightlife is in Parque Lleras in the Zona Rosa.
Medellin is a place that's misunderstood, which keeps prices low. With a fast growing new middle class, the El Poblado area of Medellin is the place to be—and to invest.
You want to own the condo that a member of an emerging middle class will want to rent...or own. It's important that they would want to own it. This gives us a strong market when it comes time to reselling. Meantime you have a rental income along the way.
A growing middle class means more potential buyers and renters with more disposable income. Values and rents will likely rise.
Another of the core ideas I follow is to look for places that are set to see a surge of foreign visitors (for business, retirement, or pleasure) and where the inventory of real estate doesn't meet their requirements.
We also want to buy and own in a place where there are supply constraints and where it's difficult to bring competing supply to market. These constraints could be a function of scarce land, tight permitting requirements, or pricing below replacement cost. When real estate is priced below replacement cost, prices must rise significantly before more supply comes on-line.
Remember, always buy quality. You can buy really cheap, but it won't be in a location that'll appeal to your target market. Stick with the prime locations like El Poblado.
I've put together a free report for you: Three Ways to Find the World's Best Real Estate Markets in 2015. In it I explain more about the new middle class and other trends to follow in 2015. Pick up your free report here.

Photo: AKDN / Thomas KellyAlthough democracy has been growing in the developing world, the UN still categorises 40 percent of its member states as "failed democracies". It has become clear to many governments that successful states require more than the introduction of democratic elections and political parties. Civil society, particularly indigenous NGOs, must play a central role in promoting good governance and accountability.
"In an era of rising expectations and unmet needs, both in the developed, but much more in the developing world, civil society institutions play an essential role in the provision of social services, the protection of the marginalised and the delivery of development programmes."
His Highness the Aga Khan, speaking at the University of Toronto, Canada, on 18th June 2004But to be effective, NGOs must be well-run and well-governed themselves. They must operate under a code of ethics and governance that stresses accountability so that resources are not wasted. They must also have a quantifiable impact on development challenges, as measured against well-recognised indicators, such as infant and maternal mortality, literacy and the reduction in the incidence of disease. Increasing community participation is also vital to progress.
To help these organisations become effective and self-reliant, AKDN offers resources and training for essential administrative skills such as record-keeping, accounting and methods of good governance. It also helps communities to lobby for change by working in collaboration with other villages when liaising with the government.

Found this question on Ask PFW: --- Just thought this was a nice gesture for one person to care for his brother -- thought I'd share it. I hope they're both ecstatic now, especially when the thought was he may go undrafted. :rocker:
That's a good story. Glad to see that Oldenburg is getting a chance. His entire family, especially the brother must be very excited today.
He is suppose to be a tough, very smart player. He played tackle but projects inside because,I kid you not, he has short arms. This according to Pro Football Weekly. What a classless bastard that Casale is. As if he watched all the film on this player.
This isn't a profile thread. It's a good story that evidently went over your head. It seems that whenever Casale's name is mentioned around here -- classless posts are soon to follow. And if you or others want to trash worthy thread topics by not keeping your emotions in check -- then you're going to risk losing lots of posters.
Short arms is a legitmate grip against tackle prospects, especially on the blind side. Robert Gallery's career has been pretty much sunk because of it.

Baltimore Ravens are Super Bowl XLVII Champions

The Baltimore Ravens survived a late 49ers surge, a controversial non-call in the endzone and a 34-minute power outage to win Super Bowl XLVII by a score of 34-31.
It will take a lot to top all five previous entries in the 'Fast and the Furious' franchise, but based on what we saw tonight, six could be the magic number.
Finally! Here's the commercial for Wonderful Pistachios that we told you Psy was doing for the 2013 Super Bowl. Just as we predicted, there is much horse dancing to be had.
Calvin Klein was courteous enough to sneak a little something for the ladies into their commercial for the 2013 Super Bowl. Actually, that's pretty much all this commercial is. Just a hot, random dude in his underpants showing off his hot bod
'The Big Bang Theory' actress Kaley Cuoco proved she's one helluva genie in this 2013 Super Bowl commercial for Toyota.
The Bud Light 2013 Super Bowl commercial 'Lucky Chair' is an ad every guy can relate to.
Super Bowl XLVII is almost 3/4 through and it's a school night so we're trying to put the boys to bed. Even worse now since the power outage at the Super Dome is making the game longer. One night out of the year so I guess it's okay for them to stay up a little later. It could be worse, it could be a baseball playoff game starting at 8:30 pm.
What? No lights? A power surge caused a blackout at Super Bowl 2013, which gave people on Twitter plenty of opportunity to move on from Beyonce's half-time performance.
Beyonce blew us all away (and the electricity as well) at the Super Bowl halftime show tonight. Already, GIF artisans from all over the internet are hard at work documenting every breath, bump, and bootylicious beat. Here are some of the best so far! (And of course, we save the best for last.)
