Solo Traveller
We've developed a range of dedicated solo holidays & solo travel packages; exclusively for people booking on their own. Around 40% of all our passengers are solo travellers.
Turkey could stage major sporting event in 2020
Anybody who has been to Turkey will be well aware that the country is extremely passionate about sport.
This is particularly the case in Istanbul, where the locals are only too keen to display their love for one of the city's football teams and the atmosphere at matches is unrivalled anywhere in the world.
More people are taking time to explore the city during a Turkey holiday, as it has finally dawned on travellers that there is far more to the country than beaches and sunshine.
Istanbul could be inundated with thousands of visitors in 2020, as the nation is hopeful of hosting one of the world's most prestigious sporting occasions.
Indeed, the picturesque city that straddles Europe and Asia is lining up a bid for the Olympic Games and the football European Championships. Although it is highly unlikely that both will be held in Turkey, UEFA president Michele Platini feels the country has every chance of landing the soccer showpiece.
Football fans can spend time in between games patrolling famous sites such as the Blue Mosque and the cosmopolitan Taksim Square.

Debian GNU/Linux 7.8.0
Add it to your Download Basket!
Add it to your Watch List!
What's new in Debian GNU/Linux 8 Beta 2:
- Important changes in this release of the installer:
- Gnome is now the default desktop environment on Linux again.
- A list of desktop environments is displayed in tasksel, making it easy to install another desktop environment (or several of them). Unfortunately that is currently a bit underdocumented (#764026).
an update
- GPL (GNU General Public License)
- Debian Team
- www.debian.org
- ROOT \ Linux Distributions
Distributed primarily as installable-only ISO images
It is distributed as network install images or installable-only CD or DVD ISO images, supporting the 64-bit (amd64, kfreebsd-amd64, ia64), 32-bit (i386, kfreebsd-i386), Armel, Armhf, MIPS, PowerPC, SPARC, s390, s390x, and MIPSel architectures.
Multi-arch ISO images are also available for download, but they only support network installations. Recent versions of the operating system are distributed with the KDE, Xfce and LXDE desktop environments.
Live CDs are available separately, as well as Rescue CDs
The project also provides Live CD images, which support only the 64-bit and 32-bit architectures, and can be used to test or install Debian with the KDE, GNOME, Xfce or LXDE desktop environments. Standard and Rescue CDs are also available for download on the official website, for anyone who wants to use a stable Debian base when dealing with various system administration and maintenance tasks.
Includes a wide-range of open source apps
Besides the default applications that are part of the GNOME, Xfce, KDE or LXDE desktop environments, Debian GNU/Linux also includes many other third-party apps for editing files, watching video streams, listening to music files, as well as numerous other essential core libraries and development packages.
Not a bleeding-edge Linux distribution
Unfortunately for some of us, Debian GNU/Linux is not a bleeding-edge Linux distribution. Instead, it is a very stable operating system that includes over 37,500 well tested packages, and precompiled software that can be easily installable. However, Debian GNU/Linux is the perfect operating system for those who want to deploy stable, reliable and powerful machines to their customers or friends.
Debian GNU/Linux was reviewed by Marius Nestor, last updated on January 12th, 2015

Makes 2 (6-inch) loaves
active time
15 minutes
total time
2 1/2 hours
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons caraway seeds
- 1 cup raisins
- 1 3/4 cups well-shaken buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter and flour a large baking sheet, knocking off excess flour.
Sift together 4 cups flour, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl and stir in sugar, caraway, and raisins. Add buttermilk and stir just until dough is evenly moistened but still lumpy.
Transfer dough to a well-floured surface and gently knead with floured hands about 8 times to form a soft but slightly less sticky dough. Halve dough and form into 2 balls. Pat out each ball into a domed 6-inch round on baking sheet. Cut a 1/2-inch-deep X on top of each loaf with a sharp knife, then brush loaves with butter.
Bake in middle of oven until golden brown and bottoms sound hollow when tapped, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer loaves to racks to cool completely.

Civil work has been initiated for the Moqueta-7 development well location, with the initiation of drilling anticipated in June 2012.
Azar Block, Putumayo Basin (40% working interest and operator)
Gran Tierra Energy is targeting the same reservoir intervals seen in the Costayaco and Moqueta oil fields with the La Vega Este-1 exploration well. Due to environmental permit delays, we have requested an extension from the ANH for this current phase; this request is still under ANH review. We expect to begin drilling the La Vega Este-1 well in April 2012.
REC-T-142 Block, Recôncavo Basin (Gran Tierra Energy 70% working interest and operator) Gran Tierra Energy expects drilling of the 1-GTE-6-BA oil exploration well to begin in July 2012. This operation will commence with the drilling of a vertical pilot hole from which core samples will be acquired from the prospective reservoir section. Including the already drilled 1-GTE-01-BA oil exploration well, this is expected to be the second vertical pilot hole drilled on the REC-T-142 Block. Gran Tierra Energy plans to drill a horizontal sidetrack from each of the pilot holes to test the productivity of the light oil sandstone reservoir target beginning with 1-GTE-1-BA in April 2012. REC-T-129 Block, Recôncavo Basin (Gran Tierra Energy 70% working interest and operator) Drilling of the 1-GTE-02-BA oil exploration well began on November 23, 2011. The well reached total depth of approximately 6412 feet measured depth and is suspended while plans are finalized for drilling a horizontal leg in mid 2012. REC-T-155 Block, Recôncavo Basin (Gran Tierra Energy 70% working interest and operator) Gran Tierra Energy expects drilling of the 1-GTE-5-BA oil exploration well to begin in June 2012. The well is located in Block REC-T-155 in the Recôncavo Basin. Similar to the vertical pilot holes drilled on the REC-T-142 Block, Gran Tierra Energy expects to drill a horizontal sidetrack well following the pilot hole to test the productivity of the reservoir sandstones. Gran Tierra Energy completed drilling of the 3-GTE-03-BA development well which is situated 1.2 kilometers north-northeast of the 1-ALV-2-BA discovery well. Oil bearing reservoir intervals in the Sergi and Agua Grande formations were encountered and plans are moving forward to complete the well and place the well on production in May. A second development well located approximately 0.7 kilometers south-southwest of the 1-ALV-2-BA discovery well began drilling on January 8, 2012. The well operations are currently ongoing at 3-GTE-4-BA. No further development wells are planned on this discovery at this time. Argentina Surubi Block, Noroeste Basin (85% working interest and operator) Drilling continues on the Proa-2 development well in the Proa oil field in the Noroeste Basin of northern Argentina. Gran Tierra Energy expects drilling to be completed in March, with testing and tie-in to existing facilities expected to follow in April. About Gran Tierra Energy Inc. Gran Tierra Energy Inc. is an international oil and gas exploration and production company, headquartered in Calgary, Canada, incorporated in the United States, trading on the NYSE Amex (GTE) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (GTE), and operating in South America. Gran Tierra Energy holds interests in producing and prospective properties in Argentina, Colombia, Peru and Brazil. Gran Tierra Energy has a strategy that focuses on establishing a portfolio of producing properties, plus production enhancement and exploration opportunities to provide a base for future growth. Gran Tierra Energy's Securities and Exchange Commission filings are available on a web site maintained by the Securities and Exchange Commission at http://www.sec.gov and on SEDAR at http://www.sedar.com. Advisories and Forward Looking Statements: This news release contains certain forward-looking information and forward-looking statements (collectively, "forward-looking statements") under the meaning of applicable securities laws, including Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations and the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The use of words such as "expects", "expected," "plans", "planned" and "will" identify these forward-looking statements. In particular, but without limiting the foregoing, this news release contains forward-looking statements regarding the expected timing of commencement and completion of drilling operations, testing and tie-in to facilities, and plans to complete 3-GTE-03-BA. The forward-looking statements contained in this news release reflect several material factors and expectations and assumptions of Gran Tierra Energy including, without limitation, assumptions relating to log evaluations, the accuracy of certain testing results and seismic data, that Gran Tierra Energy will continue to conduct its operations in a manner consistent with past operations and the general continuance of current or, where applicable, assumed operational and industry conditions. Gran Tierra Energy believes the material factors, expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable at this time but no assurance can be given that these factors, expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

There's nothing wrong with the current Jaguar XJ that a modern interior and exterior wouldn't fix. Thankfully, in 2011, that's just what it will get - the next XJ will pair the current model's high-tech aluminum unibody with contemporary styling. From a design standpoint, the 2011 XJ will adopt the same theme as the just-introduced XF sedan, so expect an ultra-aggressive tumblehome and slim headlights similar to those found on Jaguar's 2007 C-XF show car. Jaguar's design staff has the Maserati Quattroporte and the Bentley Continental Flying Spur in its crosshairs, so they can't afford to be conservative.
The XJ's interior will be a mix of familiar elements. Jaguar's love-it-or-hate-it touch-screen interface returns, and the XF's rotary transmission selector migrates here as well. Proximity sensors are predicted for many controls, and a full-length glass sunroof will be offered.
Power will come from a new 5.0-liter V-8 engine that will make about 400 hp; a supercharged XJR version should produce roughly 100 hp more. Both engines will be mated to a seven- or an eight-speed automatic transmission. A concept version of the next XJ should debut at the Paris show in October.
YOU CAN STOP SPINNING IN YOUR GRAVE, SIR LYONS:Finally, an XJ that looks as up-to-date as it drives. It can't come too soon.

Violent spree in Ariz. highlights cops' need to stop threat
A police-involved shooting expert says no two situations are the same and a copy may react differently each time
By Donna Rossi
PHOENIX — There were at least four officer-involved shootings in and around the greater Phoenix metro area over the past weekend. Each ended in officers shooting and killing someone.
On April 19, three Phoenix officers opened fire and killed a suspect who pretended to point a weapon at them. The next day, different Phoenix officers confronted a suspect who did point a gun at them. He, too, was shot and killed. Each time an officer shoots, the decision is made in a split second.
Each officer-involved shooting is unique. No two are the same, according to retired Phoenix police Lt. Rob Robinson. The 27-year police veteran now works as a consultant and expert witness in police involved shootings. The decision, according to Robinson, is based on officer perception — what the officer hears, sees and perceives.

Here is a list of stations to be affected.
Dish drops the DVR guide data when they pull stations. When DirecTV pulls stations, do you still get guide data for the OTA?
What I've seen in the past is there will be two listings in the guide for the OTA channel. If you enter just 42-1 for example you get the info slide, you need to go into the guide matrix and select the second 42-1 which does have the programming information in it. What I'm not sure of is will any series link you have set for 42-1 end up recording the info slide or the actual 42-1 or will we need to redo any SL for the second 42-1?

Tampa Bay Lightning (35-35-7)
@New Jersey Devils (44-28-6)
Thursday, March 29
Prudential Center
Attendance: 15,380
Newark, NJ (Sports Network) - Six different skaters found the back of the net as the New Jersey Devils used a balanced attack to top the Tampa Bay Lightning, 6-4, on Thursday at Prudential Center.
Ilya Kovalchuk, Alexei Ponikarovsky and David Clarkson had a goal and an assist apiece, while Dainius Zubrus, Jacob Josefson and Marek Zidlicky also scored for the Devils, who have won two straight games.
Adam Henrique and Patrik Elias added two assist each while Martin Brodeur needed to make just 16 stops in the victory.
"We had a nice explosion of offense there, it's been a while since we put up six," Devils forward Zach Parise said. "We felt good, we did a good job on the forecheck and we were able to finish."
Ryan Malone netted a hat trick, Trevor Smith scored and Victor Hedman added two helpers for the Lightning, who have lost two in a row. Dwayne Roloson was tagged for all six goals on 34 shots, while Sebastien Caron stopped all four shots he faced.
Tampa Bay opened the scoring with just 43 seconds left in the first period.
Holding the puck at the point, Hedman ripped a slap shot that caromed off the leg of Steven Stamkos in front, and went right to the tape of Malone, who tapped it past a prone Brodeur from the right of the net.
New Jersey evened the game at one with a shorthanded tally just 3:07 into the second period after Elias picked off a pass in the defensive zone and sprinted up the ice on a 2-on-1 with Zubrus. Elias slowed down as he reached the right circle and flipped a perfect saucer pass to Zubrus, who ripped it home.
But, the Lightning regained the lead 1:33 later after Malone chased down a right corner dump-in, turned and fired a shot on net that deflected off the skate of Zidlicky and through the legs of Brodeur.
The Devils fought right back to tie the game at two when Malone chased down a loose puck in the right corner and threw a blind pass out to the slot, which was easily picked off by Josefson, who ripped it into the net.
Malone completed his trick at 10:13 of the second period after Hedman fired a slap shot on goal from the left point that was stopped by Brodeur. Malone pounced on the rebound and put it into the net to make it 3-2.
New Jersey took control from there with four consecutive tallies.
The Devils tied the game at three at 13:26 of the second period after Kovalchuk slammed home a rebound off a shot from Henrquie, and then closed the second-period scoring with a power-play goal with 5:23 to play after Zidlicky blasted a point shot past Roloson.
"We were sloppy with the puck," Malone said of Tampa Bay's second period. "It cost us."
New Jersey kept the pressure up in the third period, and the heavy forechecking effort paid its dividends 2:25 into the final frame.
Roloson came out of his net to play the puck following a dump-in and backhanded it up the left wing wall, but it came right to Bryce Salvador, who one-timed the puck on goal and it was tipped home by Ponikarovsky in front.
The Devils capped their offensive explosion with just over six minutes gone in the third period after Clarkson got a shot off in the slot that was stopped by Roloson, but the big forward put home his own rebound.
Smith beat Brodeur with a one-timer from in front off a feed from Tim Wallace with 8.3 seconds to go, but it was too little, too late for the Lightning.

We will go a bit further now and expand the set of data that we are tracking in order to try to pinpoint the exact cause of checkout abandonment, if possible. You will also see that this code is re-usable on any form in frontend, which is something that I'm sure you will find a use for.

I've worked on project that have more than 2.000 administrators with different roles (that number constantly grows).

You already know that we can set transactional emails for each website / store view and have those emails translated in administration/db. Challenge in my case was that I needed to translate some "random" sentences in one transactional email so using predefined email template wasn't possible. Sure that we can inject variables and/or objects into email templates, but that didn't help in my case.

Surprisingly Magento admin area does not have a "customer group" column under the "Sales > Orders" grid, or under the "Sales > Orders > Create New Order" grid (which is a grid of customers).

Maybe you want to be able to filter the "Sales > Orders > Create New Order" grid by customer group prior to the actual order creation just to see the total of "Dealers" group customers?

British Bank Settles Money Laundering Charges
Standard Chartered will pay $340 million to settle charges it used its New York branch to hide illegal international transactions. The settlement covers some 60,000 transactions totaling $250 billion, according to regulators. The bank strongly denied the charges at first, but then backed down agreeing to let a monitor oversee its international transactions and pay a fine.

A British bank has agreed to settle charges that it illegally laundered Iranian money. The settlement with Standard Chartered was announced by New York banking regulators, who'd brought the charges just a week ago. The bank still is under investigation by the federal government. NPR's Jim Zarroli has more.
JIM ZARROLI, BYLINE: New York's Department of Financial Services had accused Standard Chartered of acting like a rogue bank. They said it illegally processed many thousands of transactions for Iranian companies and banks over a 10 year period, despite U.S. economic sanctions. The bank strongly denied the charges at first, then yesterday it backed down, agreeing to let a monitor oversee its international transactions and to pay a fine.
Karen Shaw Petrou of Federal Financial Analytics says the fine is about in line with those levied against other banks accused of money laundering.
KAREN SHAW PETROU: Three hundred forty million dollars is not the biggest settlement of this sort reached, but it's a lot of money and significantly validates the New York claim, even if it doesn't prove it.
ZARROLI: Petrou notes that the settlement was announced one day before a hearing where Standard Chartered was supposed to explain why it shouldn't lose its New York banking license. That would have been a devastating blow for the bank, she says. New York is arguably still the financial capital of the world and a global bank has to have a presence in the city.
PETROU: I think it said that Standard Chartered recognized that the franchise value of having their New York State license in jeopardy, if not at real risk, was so grave that they needed to settle before the hearing.
ZARROLI: Standard Chartered is only the latest global bank to be accused by U.S. regulators of money laundering. The Dutch bank ING has acknowledged that it moved Cuban and Iranian money through the U.S. A Senate committee has accused HSBC of doing business with Mexican drug cartels.
Still, the filing of charges against Standard Chartered had generated some sniping by British officials. They suggested that the charges were overblown and that regulators were going after overseas banks as a way of preserving New York's place as a financial capital.
U.S. regulators, who had launched their own investigation of the bank, were also said to be unhappy with New York's move. But former Treasury Department official Jimmy Gurule says U.S. regulators haven't been aggressive enough about pursuing money laundering. And he says the fine levied against Standard Chartered isn't enough.
JIMMY GURULE: Once again we have a case where bank officials, foreign bank officials, have admitted to violating Iranian economic sanctions in violation of federal law, but yet no bank official has been criminally charged for wrongdoing.
ZARROLI: Gurule, who teaches at Notre Dame University, says the bank handles millions of financial transactions a day, and placing a state monitor inside the bank won't accomplish much.
GURULE: I mean that seems like window dressing and a Band-Aid for me.
ZARROLI: But the case against Standard Chartered isn't over. The FBI, the Justice Department and the Federal Reserve are all conducting investigations of their own. None of those agencies was part of the settlement announced yesterday and they could file further charges against the bank.

Concept bike charges your iPhone, EV, house, jetpack, etc.
May 10, 2013
A shadowy design outfit (shadowy in the sense that the majority of its website does not yet appear to be live) called Dezien has published images of an interesting concept bicycle dubbed Levitation that charges the cyclist's mobile devices… and electric car, apparently.
Most of what is known about the concept derives from two annotated diagrams of the bicycle. Its main feature is the integrated battery which is charged as the bike is ridden. So far as we can tell, this in no way powers the bicycle, but instead would be used to charge mobile devices by way of the integrated USB 3.0 ports, hidden somewhat mysteriously under a removable handlebar grip through which you would presumably have to feed your cables if charging when riding.
Apparently you'll be able to connect the bike to provide power to your home or electric car, which is somewhat optimistic, given limitations of batteries and the USB standard (3.0 or otherwise).
The bike also boasts an integrated Wi-Fi hotspot for your devices to connect to, though the technology with which this hotspot sends and receives data to and from the internet isn't specified.
Other touches include an LED display which would indicate the battery's charge level, and lighting to the front and rear built into the bicycle's frame.
Finally, the frame would be built from Hi-Macs, a building material more commonly associated with kitchen worktops and the like. Inhabitat reports that the design, developed by architect Michael Strain, was entered into a design competition based on the novel uses of the material. That being the case: job done.
Wow. I want one of these SO bad!
(I don't know if i can count how many times I've said that in a comment on here...)

Q&A with Victoria Treadway, Owner of The Music Connection of Pearland
Tell us about your business.
We are a family-owned-and-operated music studio. We teach all styles of music, from jazz and blues to pop and classical. We teach individual lessons and group classes, primarily in piano, for ages 2 to adult. Piano is the most sought-after instrument we offer, [but] we also teach drums and guitar.
What makes your business stand out?
[First of all,] we are the only music studio in Pearland to offer group classes. They are more affordable, more fun because of the setting, and create a more independent student. We have our own curriculum, so we are able to give songs that are more well known and fun. [Second of all,] we are the only music studio in Pearland to offer Mommy and Me and preschool piano classes. Our program focuses on the piano and teaches theory through characters and different activities. Once the students have completed the different levels, they'll know the notes on the keyboard [and be able to] identify the dynamics of music, find the rhythm and recognize note values, and play beginner songs.
What inspired you to run this business?
This business has been in the family for 15 years. Once I [the daughter] got involved when I was going through college, I saw the potential to move from a business operating from home to a music studio. The reason we started the classes was for the student that wasn't self-motivated. Some students need a more fun environment than one-on-one lessons. I also strongly believe in starting your children in music lessons as early as you can to help children with their fine-motor skills, developing perfect pitch, and loads of other skills.
What is your most popular offering?
Group piano classes—once a week for 45 minutes—[and] individual piano [lessons, held] once a week for 30 minutes. [We also offer] preschool piano classes [and] Mommy and Me piano classes, [both held] once a week for 35 minutes.
What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?
One of our students [was] in shock over the amazing progress her son had made over the course of a year. He started as a beginner, and the next year he was playing songs like Solfeggietto and Moonlight Sonata. She recommended so many students to us. We called her our biggest fan.
What's your favorite part about your job?
Watching the students' progress and teaching them different styles of music. It's rewarding to see our students develop a love for music.
Anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?
We care about each and every student that comes through our door. We never give up on someone who takes a little longer than average to develop their musical skills.

Reggie Rusk, former NFL player and current owner of Next Level, believes young athletes need more than just a quick first step or a strong upper body to succeed. They also need confidence. That's why he and his staff of ex-athletes preach positivity during their signature speed-and-agility training program, Speed University. For exercisers whose playing days are over, Next Level also schedules boot-camp classes complete with referees to yell at.
For more than 35 years, The Yoga Institute has been educating and enlivening its members through the exploratory practice of yoga. Classes help quiet the mind and loosen the body as students delve deeper into an eclectic blend of Vinyasa, Ashtanga-based, and Jivamukti-infused classes. Mix It Up classes take a different focus each week, including poses that use a wall and partner poses. Early-morning classes wake up the body with fluid movements, whereas advanced classes challenge students with rigorous inversions, arm balances, and backbends. Instructors pay special attention to proper alignment, offering adjustments to deepen a student's physical practice and accompanying mental release.

Some wide-angle and video zooms have a retractableactable lens assembly which means that the COKIN Filter Holder may inhibit the use of some focal lengths. To remedy this situation, use a protective screw-in filter (UV or SKY1A) and add one or several "extension rings" between the screw-in filter and the adaptor ring of the filter-holder.
Extension rings are also useful with some home video cameras which have elements obstructing the free rotation field of the filter-holder.

Summary: Richard Gilman examines each of Chekhov's full-length plays, showing how they relate to each other, to Chekhov's short stories, and to his life. He also places the plays in the context of Russian and European drama and the larger culture of the period. Gilman interweaves biographical narrative with textual commentary and with a discussion of stage-craft and dramaturg - Chekhov's techniques for influencing viewers, the scenic framing of the action, and issues of genre ...show more and temporal structuring. Although previous critics of Chekhov have tended to view him as an essentially social dramatist or as an observer of the smaller aspects of existence, Gilman asserts that Chekhov was far more of an innovative playwright, a revolutionary, than has been seen. ...show less

The long-awaited Goodwin Champions Entomology Cards have finally arrived and they've got collectors buzzing now that they've finally seen those creepy crawlies inside cardboard.
Sales of the critter cards have been brisk with most of the cards topping $100 and even a couple of $200 sales.
The cards were the winner of the Best Gimmick Set award in Beckett Baseball's Best of 2009 Awards.
Check out the video above featuring Upper Deck's Grant Sandground, who helped bring the set to life.

Kingsville's Brandenburg to play for Islanders
KINGSVILLE - Standout Kingsville High School softball pitcher Constance Brandenburg signed a national letter of intent on Wednesday to play at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.
The three-time, first-team All-South Texas selection by the Caller-Times and two-time first-team all-state pick has been a guiding force for the Brahmas. In three-plus seasons, she has compiled a 75-21 record. In her freshman season, Brandenburg burst onto the scene and recorded 358 strikeouts.
Injuries this season have limited her to an 8-3 record, but she has compiled a 1.85 earned-run average with 97 strikeouts.

Hobart students grill congressman
By Michael Gonzalez Post-Tribune correspondent May 14, 2014 5:44PM
U.S. Rep. Pete Visclosky addresses eight-grade students at Hobart Middle School Wednesday, May 14, 2014. Visclosky spoke to about 225 students on topics ranging from the South Shore rail line extension to family life in Washington, D.C. | Michael Gonzalez~for Sun-Times Media
Updated: June 17, 2014 1:51PM
HOBART — Joe Smith had plenty of questions to ask U.S. Rep. Pete Visclosky, but the Hobart Middle School eighth-grader realized there would not be nearly enough time to get answers.
An immigration detention center that has been the buzz around Hobart for months drew much of Smith's attention.
"I'm really into community politics, so whatever benefits my town, I'm all for it," he said. "But this detention center, it's not the greatest fit for this town. (Visclosky) said he wanted to help support small businesses, but if I had a small business and heard they wanted to put a detention center in that town, that would really scare me away."
A company that specializes in the construction and operation of such detention centers, the GEO Group, bought land in the city but has not formally proposed plans to build.
Visclosky has been making annual stops at the middle school for about 10 years, social studies teacher Susan Buha said. The 14- and 15-year-olds generally do not follow the issues that affect their city, but the visits have an extra value, Buha said.
"It's not every day they can meet a United States representative," she said. "They want to ask questions about what his normal day is like, what does he do, what goes into his work. They really want to feel that personal touch."
Visclosky spent time with about 225 students Wednesday talking about his work on Capitol Hill and about his work in Lake County gathering financial support for a proposed South Shore commuter rail line extension from Hammond to Dyer. He shared personal information, such as his plans as a teenager to become a Roman Catholic priest and the times he took his two sons to Capitol Hill to watch him cast important votes.
Visclosky touched on last fall's federal government shutdown and the way the government touches most Americans' lives and what he learns from young people.
"They ask such unadulterated questions," he said. "Most adults speak from how something's going to affect them, but these kids ask direct questions."
Aaron Morin, 14, said Visclosky's visit was a boost to his career goal.
"I want to be president someday, but I want to be straightforward," Morin said. "I probably won't be able to talk as well, but I'll be able to talk straightforward. I like to help people, so I'm thinking, if not president, maybe I'll be a doctor."

C2 in effect ya'll.
Union or Bent Metal is cool.
Hate to say it, but Burton boots have best fit.
As my dogfunk records will confirm, I have taken to solely buying 686 jackets. I equate them to iMacs. They just work and keep you warm. Yes, you pay more, but if you want a jacket for 5 seasons, 686 is the brand. Rakim Say Peace.

"Shaka" means cool or smooth in native Hawaiian. Well, these new bindings are appropriately named. They are cool in that they look cool. They are smooth in that you forget they are on when you're shredding. I liked the lower profile and the iGel. I feel like I get greater reverse camber bend. Just so you know, however, you can't just screw these things down on a 4-hole pattern board and expect to ride. You have to be fairly mechanically inclined because the bindings require several adjustments to fit your boots. Additionally, you have to be conscientious about tightening your bolts because the cool hinged plate causes greater loosening. But, that said, these are the best bindings I have ever owned!

If you're into blending into your surroundings, please do not buy these pants. However, if you're flamboyant and desire to fake like you're a pro shredder, these are the pants for you! I rarely buy Burton because of the hype. But when I do, I usually find great quality products -- I hate that. I am still hiking with 06' Shaun White boots. These pants are no exception. They act like way better waterproofing than 10,000k and easily adjustable. Fairy nice . . . (in Borat accent).

So far my a-hole is performing really well. It took a little adjustment. Sometimes, it is difficult to get my mouth positioned in the a-hole. I have yet to see how my a-hole performs in really cold weather. I'm off to Vail today, so I'll supplement the review of my a-hole.

Hi Internet. It's been too long. Too long since I came here with a pee stick clutched in my fist shaking my head in disbelief. Too long since I peed on my secret stash of tests. Too long since I groped by boobs and came here saying, "Dude, they are like MELONS."

She talks through everything: coloring, playing with her mice. (Oh, yes! she has invisible mice! You know? Like Cinderella? Or the crazy cat lady in the psych ward?) She talks about her friends. She talks so much she even narrates her poop. The other day I was standing there waiting for my daughter to pinch off a tootsie roll listening to her talk. "Oh, my poop hurts, Mom.

A steady drip of water is coming out of the "button" located toward the bottom of my 40 gal. boiler fired indirect water heater. The button is rusted.
Does this mean the end of my water heater? Why is that "button" there? No pipe attached to it, and it doesn't appear to have any function at all. Five years on a regular electric tank, yes, I would expect it to start to die. But this fancy new model? I'm shocked and upset if the fix is to replace it. Any thoughts? Thanks. Semi: |
Follow-Up Postings:
A picture would be helpful. |
The button could be a injection hole plug for the foaming process. Besides a defect causing a short life, or the plumber filled the domestic tank before the heating shell (its a tank in tank which is suspended, many make the mistake of filling domestic tank first stressing the welds), or if your on a well check your chloride level, this depreciates SS tanks quickly. |
Here is a picture of my tank. I did have my furnace company over this morning to look again at it. I recently had them replace a faulty thermostat on the tank and showed them the leak, which they counselled me to watch. They believe my tank is actually leaking from the top, thus the rusted out thermostat and the leaking down the sides of the heater. They gave me two choices. I could replace an o-ring on the top of the tank and hope for a fix (paying only labor and the cost of the fix kit, they are hoping that is under warranty) or replace the tank entirely with a larger stainless tank (I am not entirely certain I understand what kind, but will not purchase until I do some homework). I did tell them I was rather dismayed to be replacing this expensive tank earlier than I would be replacing a cheaper electric tank. They do want me to stick with the indirect tank, not to go electric, but I'm so unsettled that this first tank seems to be shot. I do probably need a bigger tank since I am now a family of six, with four growing (but young) children. I am also going to begin a house renovation, kitchen and three baths, next month. This just isn't money I was prepared to spend right now, but understand this is maintenance money. Would you go with a temporary fix, or replace. Any other thoughts on how I could prevent this again? I am not on a well. |

Has anyone used penny round tile...on the floor or as a tub surround? Just wondering on how easy the install is and the upkeep. I'd love any input and pics would be great! Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
If you are doing a large area in them picture yourself setting a solid 12x12 tile level in a bed of peanut butter, fairly easy, press on the entire thing down then put a little more pressure on the high corner or side to set it down. With a sheet of penny tile it is not quite that simple and you have to take more care to get them level. Not at all impossible, just harder. Not sure if they have the slip resistance to make them suitable for floors so check with the seller or check the spec sheet from the manufacturer. Grout space is the biggest issue most people will have with penny tile. There tends to be a bit more grout area. People tend to like to minimize grout because it can mold and attract dirt so keep that in mind for the location of your penny tile. |

I did use this tile in the kids bathroom floor and a little in the bath niche. I was charged an upcharge to install this tile and it took them quite a while to do it! They did an ok job but I still feel like the floor is not level. Once they clear all the mess and floor coverings this week I will take a pic. |

While some were critical of her acting, few can complain about her vocal performances. Each one was a brilliant interpretation that stayed true to the original score but avoiding sounding like Broadway karaoke.

BSOD - No Video output
Problems with Windows 7 Update and ATI Radeon HD 5670 Driver Updates.
A Windows 7 Update wouldn't download (don't have the update # since there is no video output - I'm on another computer). It was 135 KB and "Bear" (on this forum) posted that he wasn't downloading it because of troubles it caused with playig video files. The answer on the forum was to update the graphics card drivers, so I went to ATI's website and there were 3-4 updates dated 7/26/10. I downloaded one of them and rebooted the computer. When it restarted, IE froze trying to regsiter the update on an ATI website. After that, the screen went black. I kill-switched it and restarted it. The BIOS screen appeared and the Windows logo as well, then I never got the Windows 7 Welcome screen; instead the screen went black. It repeated. I started the computer in Safe Mode and rolled back the driver for the Graphics card. I restarted and the screen went black. I restarted in Safe Mode and all the desktop icons were gone - I got a black screen with only the words "Safe Mode" visible. HELP! What should I do? |
