Sep 22nd, 2002, 06:34 PM
Eggy,what type game does she have? :)
Sep 22nd, 2002, 07:28 PM
She's just your regular baseliner ;)
tries to hits as hard as she can ;),
she can handle the non-power players ;)
she doesn't play like a Panova or Smashnova though.
Sep 23rd, 2002, 04:16 PM
I saw her in Bahia, Eggy :D
She plays just like you said.
She played doubles with Nastya Myskina, the all-Nastya team... she needs to work on her volleys, misses too much :)
She's real cute, not that tiny.. she uses two ponytails, that's quite funny :D
Oct 18th, 2002, 08:42 PM

Apr 2nd, 2003, 10:02 PM
Wow, she seems to be a real up-and-comer IMO... taking Jenn to a tiebreak? Easy wins over top 100 players? This girl has game! ;) :angel:
Apr 3rd, 2003, 03:36 PM
Nastya lost :sad: :mad:
5-7 6-0 2-6 to Antonella Serra-Zanetti
very disappointing especially as Nastya was 5-2 up in 1st set :fiery:
Apr 3rd, 2003, 09:31 PM
Jul 14th, 2003, 12:18 PM
ha! I knew there was one of these around somewhere. Anyway, I think the Other Nastya deserves a belated congratulations for reaching the Wimbledon mixed doubles final at her first try :bounce:
I saw her for the first time this Wimbledon... she is so so so cute :hearts: Bunches! And she's the spitting image of Lauren Laverne (a vvv good thing).
Jul 14th, 2003, 01:06 PM
She's alot more powerful than I thought she was gonna be..
Jul 14th, 2003, 04:40 PM
she is very cute indeed ;)
a good run at Wimby mixed :) :D
go Nastya now,
want a good run in the next few weeks towards the US Open
Aug 18th, 2003, 04:15 AM
Is Rodionova going to play in the USopen? (Mixed doubles with Andy Ram??)
May 15th, 2004, 05:28 PM
no wonder Nastya's been disappointing :sad:
we'd forgotten all about her .... SORRY :hug:
she's back :D :)
after hardly winning a match all yr
she's made the 25k final in Stockholm :yeah: :D :)
Nastya :) could be the start of things to come :)
good luck in final now vs Anne Kremer
May 15th, 2004, 05:35 PM
Happy Birthday to Nastya! She turned 22 on May 12. A Wimbledon finalist last year in mixed doubles.
May 16th, 2004, 01:37 PM

has Nastya got rid of the extra S in anastasia as it seems to have changed on the ITF site, please tell me yes becasue I think it looks really stupid!
Aug 24th, 2004, 03:14 PM
I watched Anastasia play WTT doubles, she's one of the best volleyers on the tour.
And she shows her emotions, like Vera Z.
[2] PENG, Shuai CHN vs RODIONOVA, Anastassia RUS
Aug 24th, 2004, 04:02 PM

Oct 10th, 2004, 05:58 PM
Anastasia is out of the singles, she plays doubles with Dinara.
I've seen Nastya R. plays doubles in WTT, and she's very talented.
Tier I doubles with a good partner could work out for Nastya.
Oct 10th, 2004, 11:33 PM
nastya needs to pick up the singles play, she is capable of top 100. but yeah doubles might be a goer for her.
Foot's Fingers
Oct 12th, 2004, 03:36 PM
Nastya/Dinara won!
Oct 12th, 2004, 05:28 PM
Nastya and Dinara will probably play the world #1 next round.
But I think playing Tier I doubles with a good partner is the right move for Nastya.
The money is good, and her doubles game is good enough to win some matches.

Dec 23rd, 2004, 10:02 AM
Seems Nastya is not fit enough to perform good 2 sets in a row
Good Luck in 2005
Dec 23rd, 2004, 03:39 PM
Nastya, play doubles at every Tier I and II you're at.
Doubles & mixed at every major.
You never know when a draw will open up.
Jan 6th, 2005, 05:30 PM
Anastasia plays Safarova in the Hobart qualies.
I expect to see you in the main draw for both doubles and mixed in Melbourne.

They lost their doubles match. Nastya may need a better partner for Melbourne.
And she needs a good mixed partner.

Jan 19th, 2005, 06:14 PM
And no mixed, so not a good AO for Nastya.
I'd like to see her be partners with Dinara.
But you should always be doubles partners with a friend. The tour should be fun.
Jan 28th, 2005, 04:51 PM
Anastasia is in the qualies of Tier IV Pattaya.
She plays Septi Mendi of Thailand.
David Barker
Jan 29th, 2005, 10:21 AM
Mendi is posted on the WTA site as winner - no score though. Strange.....
Jan 29th, 2005, 03:56 PM
Nastya is not playing well in singles now. She needs a good doubles partner.
Nastya, you can do what Lena L. is doing. Please get a good doubles partner.
Jan 31st, 2005, 05:37 PM
Nastya lost in Pattaya qualies. She plays doubles with Poutchek, a pretty good doubles player. And real cute :hearts:

Nastya and Tatiana lost 6-0, 6-3.

Focus and compete. And get the best partners that you can.

Yr info is fully incorrect.
Nastya and Tatiana win 1st fnd doubles match. :wavey:
But today they lost in second rnd to Fedak/Perebiynis 3-6 6-7 (4)
Why Nastya :confused: ?
Hope to see you in India next week
Feb 2nd, 2005, 05:49 PM
I got that from WTAtour.com, and the official website.
But winning a round of Tier IV doubles isn't good enough.
Anastasia can do better. She made the Wimbledon final in mixed.
Feb 5th, 2005, 03:31 PM
Anastasia beat Zi Yan in the Indian Open qualies.
Now she plays Adamczak.
If I'm Nastya, I want a good doubles partner for IW & Miami.
Please make that a goal for yourself :D :wavey:
Feb 5th, 2005, 03:40 PM
Good win :D
Feb 6th, 2005, 06:43 PM

Good strat Arina!!!And this on Carpet. Minsk should be the 75 K. instead of Dinan. Even though Minsk is only 10 K. nothing to deny about the participants. They all can play on the surface. Hopefully Arina will be rewarded with WC soon. She deserves to get a WC on a carpet tournament.

Jul 25th, 2005, 04:15 PM
Delgado and Anastassia Rodionova won three of the eight games they played in mixed doubles against Warburg and Elena Likhovtseva, but the real concern in the set occurred in the sixth game when Rodionova twisted her right ankle after chasing down a shot on the backline. After a brief consultation with the medical staff, Rodionova returned to the court. In fact, she smashed home a winner on the first point after her injury.
After the match, Rodionova said her ankle was "good."
While her ankle might have healed, Rodionova's luck didn't change.
She and Bonderanko lost to Likhovtseva and Vaidisova, 5-2, in women's doubles and gave reigning WTT finals MVP Delgado a 17-11 hole to dig out of in men's singles, the final set of the match.

The Hershey Co. has made John P. Bilbrey its president and chief executive officer, just weeks after he was named interim CEO.
Supplier News Breaks Archives
HERSHEY, Pa. – The Hershey Co. has made John P. Bilbrey its president and chief executive officer, just weeks after he was named interim CEO.
Hershey said late Wednesday that Bilbrey takes over the CEO post and becomes a company director effective immediately.
Previously executive vice president and chief operating officer, Bilbrey in mid-May was appointed chief executive on an interim basis to replace David West, who is leaving the company to become CEO at Del Monte Foods Co.
"It is a unique privilege to lead The Hershey Co. Hershey has iconic brands, exceptional people, unmatched capabilities and enormous potential," Bilbrey said in a statement. "I'm very grateful for the board's confidence, and we are fully aligned on how to move the company forward. Our company is structured for global growth, and I look forward to building on our recent performance, consistent with Hershey's great heritage and values.
"We're very satisfied with our performance year-to-date, as we continue to grow market share and build on our seasonal leadership," he added.
Bilbrey has more than 30 years of global consumer packaged goods experience, according to Hershey. He was named COO in 2010, with responsibility for day-to-day global operations and commercial activities at the chocolate and candy giant, and from December 2007 to November 2010 served as senior vice president of The Hershey Co. and president of Hershey North America.
The company noted that Bilbrey played a key role its turnaround as well as in the creation and implementation of its confectionery demand landscape and establishment of Hershey's presence in markets worldwide. He joined Hershey in 2003 as company senior vice president and president of Hershey International.
Before joining Hershey, Bilbrey held executive positions at Mission Foods and Danone Waters of North America Inc. and spent 22 years at Procter & Gamble Co., where he served in positions of increasing responsibility in the U.S. domestic business as well as many international assignments.
"J.P. has the experience, deep industry knowledge and the right skills to lead Hershey's growth as it continues to evolve into a global company," Hershey chairman James Nevels stated. "Over the years, J.P. has built a very effective relationship with the board as well as with the various Hershey communities and constituencies. He has earned the respect of Hershey's customers, employees and stockholders and the confidence of this board. In determining how to best fill this position, the board unanimously concluded that J.P. is the right person to continue as president and CEO and to lead the company into the future."

Cooldown reduction is the way to go with the new Ryze. The build here allows for continual damage output (cooldowns do not exist when you keep casting his spells) 3-3.5k Healht, 100-150 armor/MR Frozen heart attack speed reduction/banshee's/mercury's And your stun will be up when you need it due to CR/CRpassive I will straight out say this is the ideal way to play Ryze with his current implementation. I will agree small tweaks can be argued over a few of the non-core items, the runes, masteries, summoner spells---- but Cooldown reduction is what gives this Ryze his damage base (and continual stun). Compound that with many cooldown/mana items tend to add survivability (frozen heart, banshee's) finally give us a Ryze that can pop an initial quasi AoE nuke, but CONTINUE to cast every one of his spells for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or more round as he takes much longer to take down (assume you aren't working with a team/tank). As I stated much earlier, great build--- It can work for anyone who gives it time for the learning curve this new Ryze takes.
Why isn't RoA in the build? It's absurdly cost-efficient, giving huge amounts of HP, mana and AP. I would personally grab it before frozen heart and archangels.
This is very good guide. The drawback for me that by the time I get RoA/Archangel game usually ends :\ . Frozen Heart is totally awesome for new Ryze. 10% from max mana is surprisingly good.
My thinking there would be that Veil will provide more value early and mid game than the rod where the 70 (60?) MR and ability shield every 30 seconds will do more than 50 AP. Late game, 300 mana and 80 AP adds about 66 damage to overload and 26 damage to everything else, so it's not massive and it would also cut your MR in half, whereas shield late game is still important. It is a fair point though, if you're not worried about magic/casters or you do want a bit more damage, you could exchange the Veil for a RoA. I put that as a small addition to the items section.

Great Guide! Just wanted to report that im unable to find void staff in the item list in the site's game database..

San Francisco restaurants
San Franciscans like to think their town has an edge over New York in the contest to be America's number-one dining destination. Not only does the City by the Bay have thousands of restaurants, dozens of ethnic enclaves, and an informed public, goes their argument, but it also has one huge natural advantage over its rival—it's surrounded by some of the country's best wineries, farms, and coastline. To reap the benefits of this exceptional California produce, gastronomes from all over the world come to visit and shop at the renowned Ferry Building. With its restaurants, food shops, water views, and mythic farmer's market, it's the perfect snapshot of the city's culinary persona.

How to Check the Mac Processor Speed
Want to know how fast a Mac is? You can check a Macs processor speed a few different ways, but here are two methods: super easy through the GUI, and a more advanced way through the command line.
Check a Mac CPU the Easy Way: GUI
Go up to the Apple menu and select "About This Mac":
You will then get a window that shows what version of Mac OS X you are running, what your processor and processor speed is, and how much memory your Mac has.
If you want, you can then go through and check CPU usage through the Mac Task Manager, known as the Activity Monitor.
Check a Macs CPU the Fun Way: Command Line
The GUI is easy, but what fun is that? What if you want to check a machines processor remotely through ssh? Let's use the Terminal instead.
Using the following command you can check what the CPU is:
sysctl machdep.cpu.brand_string
The string returned includes both the brand and the clock speed of your Macs processor. For example, you might see:
machdep.cpu.brand_string: Genuine Intel(R) CPU T2500 @ 2.00GHz
Keeping with the theme here, you may then want to monitor what your Mac CPU is doing. If you want a command line activity monitor, use this variation of the 'top' command to monitor CPU usage. I like it better than the standard top command because it uses less CPU itself, and it sorts processes by their CPU usage. Give it a go.

While you're on your vacation to Maui, your attention will probably be drawn to many of the species that live here, but do you know which are native and which are introduced? If you're at all interested in the island's fauna, read on for a quick orientation.
The sea turtles around Maui are usually the green variety, and only rarely hawksbill or leatherback. Dolphins are usually spinners, but you might also see spotted or bottlenose dolphins. The monk seal is another marine animal you might see, although that is extremely rare. They are one of only two native Hawaiian mammals. The other is the Hawaiian hoary bat. Once upon a time, Maui had no mice, rats, deer, wild boar, mongooses, or feral cats.
Most birds you will see are also introduced. There are doves, finches, sparrows, cardinals and mynah birds, among others, but all were introduced at one point or another in our history. Maui's native bird species include a handful of gorgeous little jewels called honeycreepers, along with the Hawaiian crow (alala), the Hawaiian owl (pueo), the Hawaiian stilt and the nene goose, which is Hawaii's state bird. The honeycreepers live at high elevation because of habitat destruction and disease spread by mosquitoes. Fortunately, mosquitoes can't survive at high elevations. The good news is that conservation efforts are going well at the Maui Forest Bird Recovery Project (MFBRP) and at the Maui Bird Conservation Center. The MFBRP provides handy little webpages on each of the 7 Maui honeycreepers. Two are endangered and one is thought to be extinct, but the remaining four are doing alright. Birdwatchers should definitely try to catch a glimpse of these biological treasures. The bright red plumage of the I'iwi or the stark yellow feathers of the Maui Alauahio are sure to dazzle the eye before a backdrop of deep green foliage.
If we were to try to list all the native and non-native fish species that live in the ocean surrounding the island, this blog would be way too long. The same goes for plant species, although we may touch on these in summary another time. If you want to learn more about the wildlife on your Maui trip, there are a few good spots to visit. Hosmer's Grove up on Haleakala is a good one for bird watching. The Kealia Pond National Wildlife Refuge at sea level in Ma'alaea also provides some good bird watching, and educational information. The Maui Ocean Center is a great place to learn about the marine life. If you are interested in the humpback whales that come here every winter, you might also check out McGregor Lookout Point, which is widely considered the best shoreline whale watching spot on the island. There is also an information station that is staffed by Pacific Whale Foundation naturalists on a daily basis.
Hopefully now you will feel that you have some familiarity with wildlife around Maui. There is always more to learn, and we hope you enjoy the process! Have a wonderful vacation, and if you need any assistance with your accommodations, you'll find our contact information at the bottom of the page. Mahalo!

VEHICLE Hydra | |
Vehicle class (GTA V) | Planes |
Vehicle type | Military fixed-wing aircraft |
Body style | VTOL fighter jet |
Capacity | 1 (pilot) |
Appearance(s) | Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Grand Theft Auto V [DLC] Grand Theft Auto Online [DLC] |
Related vehicle(s) | Besra P-996 Lazer |
The Hydra is a military VTOL fighter jet featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and part of a DLC in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Edit
Design Edit
The Hydra is evidently a jet-powered military aircraft, bearing roundels of the United States Air Force on its wings, with armament containing 2 air-to-air missiles (evidently AIM-9X Sidewinders). The Hydra is suggestively based on the British Harrier fighter jet, a well-known fighter jet with Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) capabilities, which are featured as well in San Andreas. This is further proven by the code that is used to spawn it in the PC version, "Jumpjet", which is a nickname for the Harrier Jets. The air intake is on the underside of the aircraft and resembles that of a F-16 Fighting Falcon. The Hydra also features the Harrier's weaponry, including missiles and countermeasures, however the built-in machine gun does not appear ; instead, the machine gun is featured on another vehicle, the Hunter.
Combat Edit
The Hydra is well-known for being one of the most performing in-game vehicles in combat, on par with the Hunter. The Hydra comes with three sets of weapons which are :
- Countermeasures : When used, the Hydra will drop a white flare that has the ability to deviate upcoming heat-seeking missiles. It can be noticed however that deviating will not put the Hydra in safe situation, as sometimes the missile may deviate for a few seconds before heading towards the jet again. Countermeasures then, if deployed at the right time, can buy some time for the pilot to escape a missile or definitely deviate a missile, either redirecting it upward or downward. Countermeasures affect missiles fired from the Area 69 SAM sites, other Hydras or from a Heat-Seeking Rocket Launcher, however it will not deviate rockets fired from a Rocket Launcher.
- Missiles : When used, the Hydra will fire one unguided rocket per side. Despite unguided, if correctly aimed (deadly when used with the downward thrusts), it will make short work of vehicles, blowing them up on contact (except for the Rhino). The missiles, if they do not hit anything, will travel on a relatively long distance before blowing up.
- Heat-seeking missiles : This alternative fire mode of the Missiles is identical to the handheld Heat-Seeking Rocket Launcher. The Hydra can lock on vehicles, and once it is done, when a missile is fired, it will be heat-seeking and will head towards the target. It is however less powerful that the unguided missiles (requiring three missiles to destroy a car instead of a single rocket for the unguided missiles). When fired towards an aircraft, it will be much faster, and is likely to reach its target.
Grand Theft Auto V Edit
This article or section contains information about a subject scheduled to be featured in upcoming content. Please do not add unconfirmed or speculative content unless it can be confirmed by its release or by Rockstar Games. |
Design Edit
The Hydra was originally going to be in Grand Theft Auto V, but it was replaced by the P-996 LAZER for unknown reasons. It featured two tail wings and had a shorter fuselage. It is clearly seen due to the shapes that strongly resembles the Harrier jet (the vents near the cab) and a V-like tail like those on the Lazer. It is also seen using its missiles (in an old fashion, seen in GTA SA). It seems to be a bit heavy, because in the 2nd trailer, it shoots a Police Maverick and then, hits it with its entire right wing without being damaged.
The Hydra is scheduled to be released with the Heists Update, similar to how other beta vehicles returned in DLCs. As seen in the Update trailer, the jet is based on the AV-8B Harrier II, making it similar to the previous rendition, although the rear fuselage and twin stabilizers resemble those of the F-35 Lightning II, similarly to the P-996 Lazer. Like its real life counterpart, the jet features rockets mounted under its wings, as well as 2 small holes under the aircraft that would be the machine guns.
Performance Edit
Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Edit
The Hydra is the most sophisticated aircraft in the GTA series, boasting a variety of equipment. One of its more prominent abilities is its VTOL(Vertical Take Off and Landing) capabilities, which allow it to hover, descend or ascend vertically like a helicopter, and travel horizontally like an airplane; these abilities are achieved by directing thrust from four jet outlets downwards or backward using specific directional controls (by pushing the right analog stick forward/back, or, on a PC, by holding down 2/8 on the number pad or Ins/Del, by default. Or, with the IOS version, snaps automatically forward at a moderate speed). Due to its excellent engine and maneuverability, the Hydra is the fastest and fail-deadly aircraft (and one of the fastest vehicles) in GTA San Andreas, with a fixed top speed of 200 kph, and one of the easiest to fly when the player learns the basics of fixed-wing flight. However, similar aircraft like the Rustler and the Stuntplane, are more agile. It is very complicated, one mistake can send it plummeting towards the ground.
The Hydra is the most preferred aircraft for its speed, agility, and weapons which make it an excellent choice for nearly any purpose requiring an airplane. Its chief disadvantage comes not from the vehicle itself, but the game engine - high-speed flight can allow the plane to hit objects, such as trees, before they've become visible due to model/texture loading being slower than the plane itself (this process is also nick-named 'pop-in'). Another drawback is that there is no passenger or co-pilot seat, restricting it to only carry one person, making it unsuitable for several-man transport.
Unlike the Hunter in GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas,Vigilante side-missions cannot be started or performed using the Hydra.
Grand Theft Auto V Edit
This article or section is Under Construction. |
Missions Appearances Edit
GTA San Andreas Edit
GTA Online Edit
- Humane Labs Raid- GTA Online Heist
GTA San AndreasEdit
- Easter Basin Naval Station: Available on the aircraft carrier after completing Vertical Bird, the player instantly gains a 5-star wanted level upon entry of the base, then stealing will cause the player to be chased down by NPC Hydras.
- Verdant Meadows: In the hangar furthest away from the Abandoned AC Tower after the mission Vertical Bird.
- Ganton: On Sweet's House rooftop after attaining 100% completion.
- Area 69: Two spawn by a tank garage after Vertical Bird (dangerous to obtain, even if you use the 'lock wanted level' cheat code at zero stars; Surface to Air Missiles will still shoot at the player unless the player takes them out with Satchel Charges).
- 2 NPC Hydras pursue the player when in the air after reaching a 4-star wanted level; although it's extremely difficult as the wreck is likely to disappear and you are likely to get Busted, you can attain 6-star wanted level, shoot down one of them with a Rustler or Hunter, theoretically even a Sea Sparrow, as close as possible to Verdant Meadows (this is the easy part), land and bail out next to the wreck, jack a nearby Rhino and use it to push the wreck into your hangar.
- The Hydra can be obtained with the cheat code "jumpjet" for PC. For other consoles, see Cheats in GTA San Andreas.
GTA VEdit
GTA Online Edit
- Aircraft Carrier 96 in preparation for The Humane Labs Raid.
Glitches Edit
- There is a glitch that occasionally occurs with the flares; at times they do not deploy. You would then have to rely on the Hydra's evasiveness in order to avoid incoming missiles (hint: if you are flying at a high enough altitude, you can roll your Hydra upside down, then pull up. You will almost certainly evade the missile. If it is too high to dive, then use the rudder and turn at the same time.)
- If you go to the Mount Chiliad (where a Mountain Bike appears) with the Hydra, if you start to lock-on over it and fire the missiles, oddly the Hydra receives damage until it explodes like if you are being attacked. This is due to the fact that bicycles aren't meant to explode and it will glitch the damage values, like a "bouncing" damage that affects the Hydra. (PS2 Confirmed)
Gallery Edit
- The Hydra is named after a Greek mythological beast, a 9 headed serpent-like creature that lived in Lake Lerna on the Pelopennese Island in Greece. Other vehicles named after mythological creatures include the Leviathan, Phoenix, Banshee and Kraken.
- Both of its introductory missions are very similar. They both involve the player stealing the VTOL from an aircraft carrier after a shootout with military personnel, only to use it for another ultimate purpose.
GTA San AndreasEdit
- Once the player attains a 4 star wanted level or higher and is in the air, two Hydras will pursue and try to shoot down the player. The enemy Hydras should be no match, as they have a penchant for flying in lazy circles and not deploying flares, and as a result they will easily crash into buildings when flying in cities.
- Part of the text on the side of the aircraft features the letters "DMA", this is likely a reference to Rockstar North, since the company was formerly known as DMA Design. DMA is also a play on United States Marine Corps squadrons that use the AV-8B Harrier II (VMA).
- The Hydra has a U.S. Air Force logo on its left wing, but on the right wing, it does not.
- The Hydra has a handling similar to that of a helicopter if the thrusters are not faced backwards.
- An alternative model of the aircraft can be seen on one of Zero's hobby shop kits, sporting a V-tail and a more Harrier-esque look.
- Like all other planes in the game, the Hydra will cease to accelerate once it reaches 300 km/h. However, several trainers (such as the SCM hook) can disable the cessation.
- The NPC Hydras chasing CJ in a dogfight are actually piloted by police officers from the city/region that they spawned from.
- If the player enters the Hydra with the landing gears retracted, upon entering the plane, the Hydra will explode.
Grand Theft Auto V Edit
- The Hydra cut before the release can be seen in the in-game TV Cunning Stunt Academy, with various features, such a black narrow nose, Harrier-like landing gears (which is oddly short) and 2 thrusters in a side (like a Harrier) and a rear main turbine (like the Lazer).

Abstract: | This paper describes the approach of the University of Twente at its first participation in GeoCLEF. A large effort went into the construction of a geographic thesaurus which was utilized to add geographic knowledge to the documents and queries. Geographic filtering was applied to the results returned from a retrieval by content run. Employing such a geographic knowledge base however showed no added value - the content-only baseline outperformed all geographically filtered runs. |

Providing outstanding service on a consistent basis is hard work that can easily go unnoticed. In 1989, the Vancouver Hospitality Awards Program was established to ensure that the accomplishments of the front line service providers were recognized.
This program has come a long way in the 23 years since its inception. The program has been renamed, Vancouver Tourism Awards, with its name, graphic and tag line Rewarding Service Excellence all trademarked. Now the largest annual industry event in Vancouver, the annual gala draws a crowd of over 800 guests.
The Vancouver Tourism Awards Program is the only registered non-profit society in Vancouver that publicly recognizes outstanding service by an independent, volunteer tourism partnership.
The Vancouver Tourism Awards Program is FREE
and one of the most effective ways to reward employee performance.
The mandate of the Vancouver Tourism Awards Program is to recognize service excellence in the tourism, hospitality and service industries, by selecting and publicly identifying persons who have demonstrated superior service to Vancouver's 8+ million annual visitors.
During the course of the year, ballots are distributed through Rocky Mountaineer's on board publication. As well, individual ballots can be found at over 130 locations around the city through attractions, hotels, and information centres. Visitors are also encouraged to complete a ballot online. Employers are urged to submit letters of praise and emails from visitors and the office of the Vancouver Tourism Awards accepts letters from visitors as well.
With an average of over 210 nominations received each month, quadrupling in numbers during the summer months, each pay tribute to front line tourism staff. The selection committee is made up of representatives from the sponsoring organizations that review the ballots and choose a monthly winner. A presentation ceremony is then organized and coordinated with Vancouver City Hall in order to have the Deputy Mayor present a City of Vancouver Coat of Arms medal along with a Certificate of Achievement signed by His Worship Mayor Gregor Robertson. Representatives from the sponsoring organizations attend, bearing gifts for a lively 30-minute presentation and photo shoot.
Every employee who receives a nomination will receive a certificate to acknowledge his or her efforts. These personalized certificates are sent to the employer, to be presented to the nominee(s). This will surely motivate other staff members to strive for similar recognition.

Craft Ideas for 15 Month Old
Ok, I need some ideas for arts and crafts. My daughter is 15 months old and I just want to get her little creative side brought out. I also think that if I can get somethings to do it will keep her a little more occupied. Any suggestions?
Just want to also say thank you too all the moms involved with mamasource. It is wonderful to have ideas on multiple topics. THANKS in advance!

Get some finger painting paper or paper with a wax back. Finger paint with pudding! It's wonderful and tasty! Kids love it! It's a great outdoor activity as well.

If you don't mind the mess, finger paint is always a huge hit. Also, my 2 year old is totally into shapes right now...loves them. I put a sheet down on our kitchen floor and drew shapes on colored paper with glue. I gave her glitter to sprinkle in the glue and let her go to town! She loved it, made a big mess and is very proud of her glittery shapes! When all was done, I just folded the sheet so the remaining glitter would fall into the crease, shook it down the crease and into a bowl for later use (there was LOTS of unused glitter all over the sheet).

www.dltk.kids is a fun resource for children crafts- My children love to cut and paste and color since the time they were about 18 months- I helped them with kid sissors and tearing paper. If you don't mind a mess, watercolors are fun- playdough is good to, I used to put my youngest in a highchair where I could see him and he would play with playdough forever- easy clean up too. I would be able to clean while he was occupied, all I had to do was keep an eye on the tasting of the playdough. However he was using a binki still and if I gave him a binki he wouldn't even try to taste it. Really crayons and blank paper are the best tools for a child... It is hard not to want to give them more though. There's some pretty cool craft stuff out there.

I did this with my daughter when she was a little older then 15 months, but I don't think she's too young. At that age they can handle a glue stick well enough (or with help) so have her glue tissue paper that you have torn up onto anything. Old cereal boxes, paper, anything you want really. I just rip up a bunch of tissue paper that we have saved from all the birthday parties we've had. Because I know I'll never use it all! This is a great craft for any age (my 4 year old loves it too) because they love using the glue stick and as long as they can pick up the paper they can just put it on the glue. You could also glue for her and then have her put the paper down. Just a suggestion that we like. Good luck!

Stickers...lol. I buy them at the dollar store and we have fun making cards and decorating papers with them. We've also used several of the "make and do" books from Usborne. and my dd loves to color...generally with a pen and paper. I got her an easel for her 2nd birthday because it is a favorite of hers. We buy extra's of the paper to go on the easel and we roll it out on the kitchen floor and draw our hands, feet, her body, anything she wants. Hearts. We've also done finger paints and something really fun is to fingerpaint with pudding. You have fun eating some treats while you paint. There are so many fun colors out there now!! Playdough is also a hit--I haven't done homemade like one of the other poster's suggested--but the store bought works good for us. dd did put it in her mouth once and it came right back out--not so yummy as the dog food I guess!
another thing we have done is make necklaces. Yarn and frootloops are fun. My dd loves to use beads as well. and we play with sea shells and create things with them on paper. I have a drawer in the kitchen that has her art supplies in it so she can access them anytime, paper, crayons, pens etc. She drew on the wall once. I've been lucky I think. She loves to draw on the easel--so that has worked out well.
feathers and yarn make fun necklaces too (we got that idea from the Treehouse Museum)
We also put on music and dd makes up dances for me to watch, and learn with her, exploring all the arts!
We have lots of windows in the house and so we get the dry erase markers out and draw pictures on the windows sometimes too.
C.C. answers from Denver on May 08, 2008
Hi J. - First off, find a big roll of butcher paper or craft paper - the white kind - I got one roll free just by asking the butcher (after I made a purchase of course) It's usually 18" wide so it's easy for little ones to stay on the paper when finger painting or coloring with crayons or markers.
It's also an easy way to make a homemade banner for fun occasions - (I write the message and the kids color and decorate)
If you don't have a wipe down table, you might consider putting a vinyl table cloth on the table. Or better yet, just lay one down on the floor and work there.
Playdough is always a hit at this age and is a good mom and me activity.
You could try some glue activities - either on foam, paper or a paper plate - use big foam shapes, stickers, pom poms, big buttons, wadded up tissue paper, colored feathers, even scraps of of felt, construction paper or scrapbook paper. You could help her with the glue and she could do the sticking - or better yet, make the glue a little thinner with some water and let her apply it with a paintbrush. You can even add just a little bit glitter or food coloring to make it a color.
Here's a couple of craft ideas you could help her with at this age or at least soon.
Watermelon: Cut a large triangle out of red construction paper and another curved piece of green paper to make the rind. Let her press her fingers into black stamp ink and let her put finger prints on the red paper to make the seeds. Apply glue and then help her put the green paper rind into position.
Caterpillar: Glue or staple together 3 or 4 small paper plates in a rolling pattern to make the body of the caterpillar. You could use colored plates or help her paint the plates with washable paint or use markers or whatever strikes your fancy. Glue on pompoms or buttons for feet and decorate with whatever you have that looks fun. Finish up with a glued on googly eye, smile and feathers or curled up pipe cleaners for antennas.
Butterfly - cut paper into a butterfly shape and decorate with whatever strikes your fancy - wadded up tissue paper, stickers, etc. Finish up with googly eyes and feathers or pipe cleaners for antennas.
Have a great time!

Bank of Tokyo seeks mortgage deal with AMP
PUBLISHED: 04 Sep 2012 00:04:30 | UPDATED: 04 Sep 2012 13:22:37PUBLISHED: 04 Sep 2012 PRINT EDITION: 04 Sep 2012John Kehoe and Jonathan Shapiro
One of Japan's biggest banks, Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, is in discussions with AMP Bank about injecting billions of dollars of funding for Australian home loans.
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, which already lends $10.4 billion to companies in Australia, has approached AMP Bank and other mid-tier lenders about an alternative to deposits and wholesale funding.
Japanese banks are looking to expand due to limited growth opportunities at home and have the ability to deploy large savings pools in markets that have a domestic funding shortfall, such as Australia. The move could be a major development in the mortgage lending market and, depending on the rates of return required by Japanese banks, could bolster the competitiveness and lending ability of Australia's non-major banks.
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ already has a "strategic capital and business alliance" with AMP Capital Investors after it took a 15 per cent stake in the funds management arm of AMP in December.
It is understood it recently held preliminary talks with AMP Bank about extending the relationship into providing bank funding through a so-called warehouse structure. It would help AMP and small lenders write mortgages and car loans.
Warehouse facilities are provided by large lenders to smaller institutions that rely on securitisation. The short-term warehouse loans are typically refinanced by issuing residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) to institutional investors.
However, Japanese banks could provide the warehouse loans for longer in return for an interest fee and relieve pressure on the mid-tier lenders to issue RMBS.
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ and AMP Bank declined to comment.
A source said any tie-up between Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ and mid-tier lenders such as AMP Bank was unlikely to lead to a discount mortgage war. "It isn't a cheap source of money, it's just a new source," he said. European banks including ABN Amro, Deutsche Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland have traditionally provided warehouse funding to mid-tier lenders.
But the financial troubles in Europe have forced them to reduce their activity in Australia.
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ built a $208 million ownership stake in Challenger Financial Services Group in 2007 with a view to providing warehouse funding for the annuity provider's mortgage broking business.
The global financial crisis interrupted the plan, and Challenger sold the business to National Australia Bank in 2009. Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ sold its Challenger shares. In Australia, Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ has traditionally focused on financing Japanese companies such as Toyota and Orix investing here.
If Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ clinches a funding deal with local banks, it may lead other Japanese banks to follow suit.
"Japanese banks do tend to move in herds," a source said.
Japan's Sony Bank is undertaking a feasibility study on setting up an online bank in Australia.
Nomura analyst Victor German said in a research note that a better option than setting up retail operations here would be for Japanese banks to buy RMBS.
Japanese retail investors have a history of investing in Australian dollar assets, including dollar-denominated deposits. They are prepared to take currency risk.
"If the currency goes against them, they just go to Australia for a holiday," one banker said. "I'm serious."
However, if the Australian dollar plummets, there is a risk that Japanese depositors will pull money out and withdraw the funding.
One chief executive of a mid-tier lender said he doubted the viability of warehouse funding because of the potential for regulators to require that higher capital had to be held for such vehicles.
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ in February announced plans to open a representative office in Perth.

Grandmaster Earns Invite
USDGC Open Flight qualifying isn't just for the young guns. Pro grandmaster Jim Oates proved that when he lit up the courses with multiple 1050-rated rounds during the Memorial Championship (Feb. 29th – March 3rd) in Scottsdale, Arizona and became the first grandmaster to earn an invite through the regional qualifiers.
Others earning invites in the season's first qualifier include disc golf power houses: Avery Jenkins of Capitola, California (-30), Devan Owens of Owasso, Oklahoma (-30), 2011 World Champion Nate Doss also of Capitola (-29), and 2011 PDGA Champion Richard Wysocki of Ft. Mill, S.C. at (-22).
This year's USDGC consists of two flights of 72 players. The Performance Flight allows disc golfers of varying skill to compete fairly together with DGU's Performance Scoring, while the Open Flight brings the best of the best together using the traditional stroke play.
With less than half the usual spots available this year, qualifying for the pro field will be more challenging than ever. However Jim Oates (-23), a competitor since the mid 1980′s, did it on his first try this year – something that pleasantly surprised the 2011 pro grandmasters World Champion.
The 1010-rated Oates of Orangevale, California said that during the tournament he wasn't really keeping up with his score because he was just trying to keep up with the guys in his group: longtime disc golfers Joe Mela and Dan Ginnelly, who directed the tournament. He said the three of them pushed each other throughout the tournament and in turn produced scores way above their ratings. By the time the tournament was over all three men had bested the masters division champion Phil Arthur, who ended up at a respectable (-12).
"Right now the grandmasters division is just so full of talent. That's a pretty tall order just to win in that division now," said Oates, who co-owns Final 9 Sports in Orangevale with Bruce Knisley.
Playing against each other for about 30 years, Oates said that the disc golf drama between 1007-rated Mela, 980-rated Ginnelly, and himself seemed like old times. He just wished all three of them could have qualified for the USDGC.
The tournament's winner, Paul McBeth (-44), runner up Will Schusterick (-41), and others on the leader board were exempt from qualifying due to their top 20 finish in the 2010 USDGC. Excluding exemptions and those already qualified, the top five finishers at each regional qualifier earn USDGC invites.
As the 2008 USDGC winner, Nate Doss hasn't found himself in the position of qualifying for several years. Up until now former champions were exempt from qualifying. And, his 30th place finish in 2010 put him just outside this year's exemptions. However just like Oates, Doss made quick work of qualifying.
After sitting out last year's Performance Edition, Doss said he's ready to get back to Rock Hill, S.C. and the Winthrop Gold Course.
"I'm looking forward to another chance at winning one of disc golf's most prestigious tournaments. Last year, I just really missed the excitement of Championship week," said Doss, who left nothing to chance by becoming the first player to register for the event after qualifying.
During the Memorial there were times he wasn't happy with his performance, however he still took many positives from his 7th place finish. Last year, he finished the tournament the same way and then went on to win the World Championships for the third time.
Often times, Doss said, he builds his game through the early months of the season so that he's peaking in time for the World Championship and USDGC in the fall.
It's safe to say Oates, a two time masters World Champion, was pretty tickled with his play. The key to it was great putting, he admitted, but his philosophy of avoiding OB and bogeys like the plague also paid off. He said he only collected one bogey at the Fountain Hills course during two rounds and only three bogeys in two rounds at the Vista del Camino course.
Oates was also pleased to hear of his history-making as the first grandmaster to emerge from the qualifiers. Turning 51 in April, Oates said he's been able to continue playing at a high level through a combination of his conservative strategy, a long history of athletics, good luck, and improving disc technology.
"The maturation process of the discs is going faster than my physical decline," said a laughing Oates, who remembered when modern day putt and approach discs were used as distance drivers.
Oates is looking forward to returning to Rock Hill in October for his fifth Championship. His last came in 2009 when he finished 43rd. He appreciates the level of competition the traditional USDGC format brings. And, with the pro field being chiseled down to only 72 players, Doss believes anyone who can find a way in will be in distinguished company.
"With the change I think it's going to be a very competitive year. I'm actually pretty interested in how it plays out," said Doss, speaking on the road to the Texas State Championships.
Maybe by the time October comes, more grandmasters like Oates will have also qualified.
The next Open Flight qualifier is the Steady Ed Masters Cup (May 18th – 20th ) in Santa Cruz, California.

THE FORESTRY This band started out with a simple bound friendship
between Guthrie Brown & Phillip Griffin. The two young boys got together
and had an acoustic duo going named Gutpill. The boys also always
wanted a bigger and better sound. So they met a man by the name
of Will Honaker. Will played many instruments such as piano, tenor sax
and even clarinet. When those three boys got done playing a show one
night, they realized that they wanted an even bigger sound. That's
when Jordan Finn (drums), Adam Roebling (bass & vocals), and Brian
Nichols (banjo) stepped up to the plate. Once the band had six members
they knew that they were set. The Forestry has played many shows in
Billings and have a certain style of music that no mortal man can put a
finger on. We hope to see great things come from this band in the future.
This is the best new band to come out of the local music scene in years!
