I am going to Lagos in july and staying at the Dom Manuel Hotel. Has anybody any experience of this hotel? Is it far out of the town? I haven't come across any reviews about this hotel - I've heard that it is a relatively new hotel and the accommodation is very good. I would appreciate any views or comments.
As this is my first visit to Portugal, I would welcome any suggestions regarding the location. Is the weather very warm at this time of the year? Would hiring a car be recommended ?

In 1913, Cabot Yerxa re-discovered Desert Hot Springs' eponymous springs while digging for water on his 160 acres of homesteaded land. In 1941, the pioneer decided to build a Hopi-inspired pueblo on this land using materials he reclaimed or found in the desert. The result is now known as Cabot's Pueblo Museum, and it encompasses 5,000 square feet.
The building, which rises four stories above the desert and utilizes the Venturi Effect for air conditioning, is constructed out of adobe-style sun-dried brick that Cabot made himself in his courtyard. Cabot also used materials from cabins abandoned in the 1930s. Visitors can wander through his pueblo's 35 rooms, peer out of the 150 windows, and stage elaborate Scooby-Doo chases through the 65 doors.
Named for the subject of a legendary tale from 19th-century California, Willie Boys Saloon & Dance Hall surrounds visitors with fun, food, and drink, as well as the rustic frontier atmosphere of the Old West. Diners can feast on pulled pork, spare ribs, fish and chips, and burgers, pairing them with beer and wine as revelers on the spacious dance floor groove to country, classic rock, and top 40 hits. The space prides itself on its collection of antiques and memorabilia, including an authentic Brunswick-made bar from the 1800s, a 19th-century bank-teller gate, and a jail cell from Deadwood believed to have once housed the killer of Wild Bill Hickok and a man who said a curse word on a Sunday.
Off the beaten path in the San Bernardino Mountain foothills, Desert Hot Springs draws travelers with the natural mineral waters that flow into Aqua Soleil and local spas, burbling at up to 148 degrees. The calming desert landscapes provide the backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The Cabot's Pueblo Museum, a Hopi-influenced pueblo hand-built by town founder Cabot Yerxa in 1913, displays how the settler crafted his home from material found throughout the desert. World-class golf courses and shopping centers are found about 10 miles south in Palm Springs, featuring retro '50s- and '60s-influenced architecture.

Fiorentina picked up a point in their first game without Juan Cuadrado claiming a 1-1 draw at 10-man Genoa on Saturday evening.
An own goal from Fiorentina goalkeeper Ciprian Tatarusanu gave a strong Genoa side the lead, but Gonzalo Rodriguez levelled 10 minutes into the second half.
Genoa had to play the final 10 minutes with only 10 men after Nicolas Burdisso received his marching orders, but it is they more than their guests who will feel hard done by to come away with only a point as the Viola...

I will have a one hour lay over, then be on my way to Copenhagen, Denmark where I will be studying abroad for the next six weeks! While I am very excited for this opportunity, right ...
Drip, Drip, Drip
... to approximately seventy-five
Having nothing pressing to get home to, I am oddly taking
all of this in stride. The Marriott still has my car. The condo is empty. And, Netflix and my DVR will save my missed
television entertainment for eighteen additional hours. I am told I have a seat
on Delta's 10:10am flight to Kansas City tomorrow morning.
Of note is that when we initially boarded our flight, ...
Mall of America
Today we took the shuttle to the Mall of America. It is everything it is billed as and much more. We only saw about 1/4 of it and we were there 4 hours. The indoor amusement park has a ton of rides tucked in the center area of the mall. The mall itself is 4 stories tall. We will need to go back at least one more time to try and see more.
Wellnitz Reunion
... those who've never had the pleasure, sauage gravy is a kind of peppery white sauce made in the pan with the sausage brownings and scrapings. Rex had these weird little spongy yellow disc things about 10cm across which were allegedly mini omelets (hmmmm) He said they tasted fine. Our time was limited so we sprinted across to the Mall in 5degC with a fresh breeze which brought the temperature down even further. So cold it hurt our faces. Very little open ...

Corporate Performance
Lewes District Council
Southover House
Southover Road
East Sussex
We publish details of our annual ambitions and how we performed undertaking them. We also show any policies or strategies on areas of our work.
This is our plan for delivering planning services for Lewes District over the next three years. It sets out our detailed plans for 2011/12 and a broad direction for the following two years up to 2014.
Planning services have a very high profile in Lewes District. Our biggest task is to put in place a Local Development Framework (LDF) Core Strategy. This will set out a planning strategy up to 2030 and involve some difficult decisions on how we accommodate the development that the area needs for housing, business growth and new local facilities. We intend to consult on our emerging Strategy in autumn 2011.
New development proposals always provoke interest, and sometimes even controversy. We are keen to make it easier for local people to have their say on planning applications. We are continuing to upgrade our Public Access Online system, which allows people to see and comment on planning applications at home, over the internet.
The advent of the South Downs National Park means some major changes to planning services in our area. We have been working closely with the National Park Authority (NPA), and with other councils along the South Downs, for a smooth transition. The NPA is the all purpose planning authority for the designated area from April 2011. However, they are delegating much of their work on planning applications, appeals, enforcement and tree work back to us, and we will be working in partnership with the NPA to complete the LDF Core Strategy.
The new Localism Bill, now passing through Parliament, will radically change the planning system. We want to embrace the Localism agenda. We have already started work on Neighbourhood Planning through a grant from Central Government to develop a plan for Ringmer and we will begin to involve others as the policies become clearer. This will be a radical change in the planning process, making planning policies more local, with a referendum to agree implementation.
The Government has announced that national fee scales for planning applications will be replaced by locally set fees, tailored to cover the costs of providing the service. We will be looking to introduce locally set fees at the earliest opportunity.
Our building control services compete for business with private sector firms. We will be looking to maintain and improve our market position. Alongside new planning policies in the LDF, Building Control will play an important role in promoting sustainable building construction, as we seek to tackle climate change. Another vital area of work over the next three years will be development of new policies in the LDF to promote energy efficiency, renewable energy and low carbon in new development. During 2010/11, we have commissioned specialist consultants who have completed a detailed technical study to help us with this work.
Work on flood and coastal defence will also focus on the threats arising from climate change. The Government has imposed new duties on local authorities through the Floods and Water Management Act 2010. Managing and alleviating flood risk, and the risk from coastal erosion, will continue in close co-operation with Environment Agency, East Sussex County Council and other partners. Work is under way to repair and restore the coast defences at Peacehaven, using grant aid from the Environment Agency. The work will be completed in August 2011.
We are always looking to develop and improve our services, particularly in response to the feedback we get from our customers. There are many factors driving change in our services: some national and some local. The planning and building control world never stands still: there are always changes to which we will have to respond and adapt. The main drivers for change we can see at March 2011 are set out below:
We review our progress and performance regularly. A summary of our progress and forward plans is provided here:

Veterans help navy medic passing through town
BEAUMONT - By Justin Hinton, KFDM News
Veterans groups are raising money for a Navy medic whose car broke down in Beaumont on his way home to Jacksonville, Florida from a naval hospital in San Antonio Friday.
The medic has returned home, but at the time of the interview he had not told his commander, so he didnt want to give his name but wanted to share his story.
Something like that never happened to me before. You hear about stuff like that happening every once in a while, he said.
Friday afternoon his car broke down near Stagg Dr. in Beaumont. He took his car to Rays All Makes Auto and found out from the owner, Ray Brown, he would need another engine.
He just kind of looked at me, and I knew that he was in trouble, said Brown.
He didn't have a price yet, but I was just looking thinking, what am I going to do? Am I just going to leave the car here? Is it worth saving? I didn't say this to him, but that's what I was thinking, the medic said.
Brown, a Vietnam veteran and grandfather to a military man, stepped in to help, calling a friend,Clifton Brashear, Commander of American Legion Post 33.
I called nine veteran's organizations, Brashear said. I called five American Legions and three VFWs and another group. The other group is the only one that said no. Everybody else is in for money to help this young man.
The groups have pledged to give more than $2600, enough to replace the engine while the medic spends time with his family in Florida.
You know I haven't seen them since May, so I am extremely grateful. I'll never forget, he said. Someone ever needs my help, I'm definitely going to help.
Brown says whatever money is left over will go to the medic and his family.

Find your passion. What a bunch of B.S.
As my homey Therese would agree, life is anything but static. We're always changing, and what interests us one minute might be boring to us the next. The happiest people are the ones who are most in-tune with their curiosity.
That being said, let's get into the guts of the post:
When I'm truly living a fulfilled life, I feel enthusiastic about waking up tomorrow when I'm getting ready to go to bed.
This has been a tough feeling for me to maintain, but I have found an excellent question that will lead to a fulfilled life. Keyword: Fulfilled life. Not necessarily a happy life. It's tougher to be happy when you're so close to some of these social issues.
Here's the gut-wrenching question. And if you answer this in the detail that the question deserves, it will be a wrench to your guts:
Who does my heart break for?
The keyword is "who". We're talking about people right now; not things/objects. Who, in particular, does your heart break for?
It's so easy to quickly answer in your mind: homeless people, people in poor living conditions, etc.
All of these cases are tragic, but this question will help you center in on the tragic cases that your benevolent spirit would feel most alive making better. We wanna be as specific as possible.
I'll share my response so you can have a better feel for the question:
My heart breaks for kids who aren't educated. Actually, my heart breaks for kids who are educated in the wrong way. It's not just enough to give a kid a book, and tell him/her to read it. It's not enough to teach by the textbook, and load information into someone's brain.
PEOPLE AREN'T FUCKING ROBOTS. We need EMOTION and HUMANITY behind the teaching. We need teachers who are extremely passionate about the subject at hand. Teachers who know how to connect with our natural in-born passion for learning (yes, everyone enjoys learning about certain topics, as long as basic level needs are met).
With this education, we can truly change the world. It's kind of a utopia, but if kids get more love from the education system, they won't resort to bullying as much. If kids don't get bullied, they might grow up with higher self-esteem. This could have a tremendous domino effect on the world.
This is worth the effort, and it's worth the time.
Just a quick and unfiltered example of who breaks my heart.
Obviously, the people in the situation I wrote about aren't the only ones who break my heart. There are more, and I know that there are many more for you as well. The people that your heart breaks for may be completely different, and that's a beautiful thing.
I have one final question for you:
Now that you know who breaks your heart, do you have the courage to connect with these people on a ONE-TO-ONE basis?
One-to-one interactions are where all of the humanity lies. And ironically, it's how you have the greatest impact of changing the world.
If you're comfortable doing so, please share what makes your heart break in the comments, or send me an e-mail about it.
