Letchworth State Park is a New York state park located 35 miles (56 km) southwest of Rochester and 60 miles (95 km) southeast of Buffalo in Livingston (towns of Leicester, Mount Morris, and Portage) and Wyoming (towns of Castile and Genesee Falls) counties. The park is roughly 17 miles (24 km) long,[2] covering 14,350 acres (58 km2) of land along the Genesee River.[2]
Within the park, there are three large waterfalls on the Genesee River and as many as fifty waterfalls found on tributaries that flow into it; the deep gorge formed by the river, with rock walls rising up to 550 feet (170 m) in places and which narrow to 400 feet (120 m) across above the middle of the three falls, prompted the area's reputation as the "Grand Canyon of the East".[3]
The territory of the park was long part of the homeland of the Seneca people, who were largely forced out after the American Revolutionary War, as they had been allies of the defeated British.
In 1856 William Pryor Letchworth (1823-1910), an industrialist, bought 1,000-acre (4 km2) of this territory, and constructed his Glen Iris Estate. In 1906 he bequeathed the estate to New York, which later organized the park of which it is part.[2] Park entrances near the towns of Mount Morris, Perry, Castile and Portageville. A modern, well-maintained two- or three-lane road follows the west side of the gorge, allowing many scenic viewpoints for the geologic features.
The three major waterfalls — called the Upper, Middle, and Lower Falls — are located in Portage Canyon, the southern section of the park. The Seneca called the land around this canyon "Seh-ga-hun-da", the "Vale of the three falls";[4] the Middle Falls ("Ska-ga-dee") was believed to be so wondrous it made the sun stop at midday.[2]
The only trail bridging the Genesee River across Portage Canyon crosses a stone bridge just below the Lower Falls. The Middle Falls is the highest, and the Upper Falls has an active railroad trestle crossing immediately above it, providing an even higher vantage immediately above the falls.
The highest waterfall in New York is located in the park. Known as Inspiration Falls, it is a spectacular ribbon waterfall that is located on a tributary creek a short distance east of the Inspiration Point Overlook, 0.4 mile (640 m) west of the park visitor center. It has a total drop of 350 feet (107 m). While impressive in its height, it is seasonal and often appears as only a water stain on the cliff. The falls faces to the south-southwest and has a crest that is one foot (300 mm) wide. (215-foot (66m) Taughannock Falls, 100 miles east of Letchworth in Trumansburg, is generally recognized as the highest waterfall in New York, as well as in the entire Northeastern United States).
The bedrock exposed in the gorge is Devonian in age, mostly shales, with some layers of limestone and sandstone. The rock was laid down in an ancient inland sea, and it holds many marine fossils. The landform of the section of the Genesee River valley represented by the park is geologically very young, caused by a diversion of the river from the old valley by the last continental glacier, which forced the river to cut a new section of valley.
In 2007, Letchworth was named one of the top 100 campgrounds in the nation.[5]
The historic, restored Glen Iris Inn, Letchworth's former residence adapted for use as a hotel, located on the top of a cliff overlooking Middle Falls, offers in-season meals and overnight accommodations.[2] It is open to the public for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Other features of the park include pavilions, picnic tables, a playground, hiking trails, two large swimming pools, cabins, campsites for tents, trailer sites with dumping stations, and horse-riding trails.[3]
The park is the present-day site of the grave of Mary Jemison,[2] a Scots-Irish immigrant pioneer who was captured at the age of 12 from central Pennsylvania by a French and Shawnee raiding party during the French and Indian War. She was soon adopted by a family of Seneca people, and eventually lived in western New York on the Genesee River. She had become thoroughly assimilated and chose to live with the Seneca for the rest of her long life, having a total of seven children by two successive husbands. Her remains were exhumed from the Buffalo Creek Reservation and reinterred on the grounds of a Seneca Council House, relocated to the site by Letchworth and rededicated in 1872.[6]
Activities within the park include hiking, biking, fishing, geocaching, hunting (wild turkey and deer when in season); in winter, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, whitewater rafting and kayaking, snow tubing, and horse-drawn sleighs.[3] There is also hot air ballooning, weather permitting.
The William Pryor Letchworth Museum was founded with the collections of the park's founder. The exhibits now focus on the natural and cultural history of the Genesee Valley, and include archaeological artifacts of the Seneca nation, and displays on Mary Jemison, early pioneers, the Genesee Valley Canal and William Pryor Letchworth.
William Letchworth first purchased the land near the Portage Falls in 1859 and began work on the Glen Iris Inn. He enlisted the services of the famous landscape artist William Webster to design winding paths and roadways, rustic bridges, glistening "lakes" and a sparkling fountain.
In 1906, Letchworth offered the Glen Iris and his 1,000 acres (4 km2) to the State of New York as a public park. Letchworth State Park was born in 1907. Letchworth made the arrangement to deter commercial businesses from damaging the fragile nature of the gorge and the surrounding woodlands.
As president of the Society, Dr. Kunz also helped with the organization and preservation of the library of William Pryor Letchworth when the American Scenic and Historic Preservation Society took over the management of his estate in New York. "If suitable provision can be made for their care, Mr. Letchworth will probably add to his gift his personal library and mementos. The library embraces one of the finest, if not the finest, private collection of book on charities in the country. It contains also a good collection of local histories, books about Indians, and a miscellaneous assortment of standard literature. His mementos - personal gifts and testimonials - are extremely interesting. It is most desirable that these should be kept together and adequately preserved in a new library building, as part of the monument to the generous donor of Letchworth Park."[7]
Further, Dr. Kunz helped with the 1910 memorial to Mary Jemison, "The White Indian of the Genesee", who is buried at "the ancient Indian Council House of the Senecas" located on the grounds of the Letchworth park. Dr. Kunz always was fascinated by Native Americans, and contributed much to their memorials in New York.[8]
George F. Kunz was the president of the American Scenic and Historic Preservation Society of New York, and was an enthusiastic supporter of the park.[9][10]
Letchworth, having earned "life-residence" at the Glen Iris, died there on December 1, 1910.[11] He was buried in nearby Buffalo, NY at Forest Lawn Cemetery.
One of the greatest natural disasters in Genesee Valley history took place in June 1972. Hurricane Agnes came ashore on the Florida Panhandle on June 19, and moved north through Georgia and the Carolinas. The hurricane then went out to sea, recharged its energy and hit the Southern Tier of New York State on June 22.
Although Agnes was only a category 1 hurricane, it soon stalled over North Central Pennsylvania. Caught up in a slow moving low pressure system, the storm drifted slowly northeastward into New York State. The area, having already been soaked by showers the week before, could not absorb the six to twelve inch (305 mm) rainfall that fell over Pennsylvania and New York. Known locally as "The Flood of '72", the event would have a tremendous impact on Western New York and Letchworth Park.
Although the Genesee River and Letchworth Park was not hit as hard as the Susquehanna Valley and other areas, the impact of the Flood would be felt in the Park for many years. The Lower Falls Bridge and trail to Sugar Loaf did not officially reopen for several years. To this day, visitors can still see some of the natural "scars" left by the flood waters over 40 years ago.
Video footage of the devastation can be viewed upon request at the Willim Pryor Letchworth Museum, located near the Glen Iris Inn. There is also a path that leads behind the Museum and up to the Council Grounds and Mary Jemison's grave site.
The Erie Railroad Company built a wooden trestle bridge over the Genesee River just above the Upper Falls. Construction started on July 1, 1851 and opened August 16, 1852. At the time, it was the longest and tallest wooden bridge in the world.[12]
In the early morning hours of Thursday, May 6, 1875, the great wooden railroad bridge was destroyed in a tremendous fire. The bridge was a total loss, leaving only the concreteblocks,
Immediately after the Portage Bridge fire, officials of the Erie Railroad Company moved quickly to replace the wooden bridge with an iron and steel design. Construction began June 8, 1875 and opened for traffic July 31, 1875. The bridge is 820 feet (250 m) long and 240 feet (73 m) high.[13] It is still in use today.
Popular local rumor contends that the Portage Bridge was used for a famous scene in the 1986 movie Stand By Me. In reality, the bridge used in the movie is the Lake Britton Bridge in McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park near Redding, California.[14]
On November 29, 2011, Norfolk Southern Railway (NS) announced plans to demolish the Portage River bridge and build a new one approximately 75 feet (23 m) south of the current Portage Bridge. NS had offered the old bridge to the State of New York, but the State declined it.[15]
As of April 2014, the current status of the new bridge is still in the development stages. However, an arched design has been approved and construction of the new bridge is expected to begin in the Autumn of 2014. Completion is estimated for Spring of 2016.[16]
Found at the North end of the park, the construction of the Mount Morris Dam was begun in 1948 by the US Army Corps of Engineers under the Flood Control Act of 1944. The dam was completed in 1954. The Genesee River became wider and deeper upstream for a ways as a result, but areas downstream were spared yearly flooding which destroyed valuable farmland.
The Mt. Morris Dam is the largest flood control device of its kind (concrete gravity) east of the Mississippi River. It is 1,028 feet (313 m) in length and rises 230 feet (70 m) from the riverbed.[17] The dam proved its worth during the Flood of 1972, saving thousands of acres of farmland from flooding.

(Joe Robbins/Getty Images)Cleveland Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden's roots are in Oklahoma. So Weeden is heading home to help, according to NFL.com.His wife, Melanie, has family who live in Moore, where residents are attempting to recover from a tornado that took 24 lives and destroyed thousands of homes and businesses.The former Oklahoma State quarterback, who grew up in Edmond, has discussed his plans to take part in relief efforts with Oklahoma Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb."I'll do anything, whether it's getting in the rubble and doing whatever, it doesn't matter," Weeden told NFL.com "I'll be there to help."GOLLIVER: Kevin Durant, OKC Thunder both donate $1 million for tornado reliefHis wife's family were not injured, but did suffer property damage in the tornado."It actually went right through my wife's hometown," Weeden said following Thursday's practice. "Fourth Street, the path they keep talking about, my mother-in-law lives on Main, which is four blocks north of it, and my brother-in-law lives two blocks south of it. It went right over the top of them. Very, very fortunate to have no injuries and everybody's safe."Weeden said he and his wife became very worried when they lost contact with her family as the tornado tore through the town."My brother-in-law got in the car and drove away from it," he said. "My mother-in-law works in the administration building for Moore Public Schools, so she was in a basement, fortunately. Very, very blessed, we got lucky.

"They said, 'If you're at that park, get out of the way.' It was destroyed. Once we heard it was destroyed, obviously there's no cellphone service. We couldn't get hold of them for about an hour. So my wife's panicked and we're panicked. It was tough being so far away.Weeden wasn't the only Browns player affected by the tornado.

The Reserve Vineyards & Golf Club is a 36-hole private and public golf club in the Portland, Oregon metro area in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. The award winning club in Washington County, Oregon, opened in 1997 and hosted the Champions Tour major, The Tradition from 2003 to 2006. It also hosted the now defunct Fred Meyer Challenge from 1998 until the final tournament in 2002. Home to a pair of 18-hole courses, the club is south of Tualatin Valley Highway adjacent to Hillsboro.
Development of The Reserve began in 1991 and involved Tom Kite and Bob Cupp's golf course development company. However, financing fell through and their company backed out. Eventually the $25 million project received financing from a Korean businessman with OB Sports developing the course with John Fought.[3] The club opened in September 1997[4] with D.S. Parklane Development as the owner.[5]
From 1998 to 2002 the club was host to the annual Fred Meyer Challenge run by golfer Peter Jacobsen.[3][6][7] From 2003 to 2006 The Reserve played host to the Champions Tour's JELD-WEN Tradition.[8] That tournament had been held at the Cochise Golf Course of the Golf Club at Desert Mountain in Scottsdale, Arizona, and then moved to Central Oregon and the Crosswater Golf Club at Sunriver after its four-year run at The Reserve.[8]
The club sits on 330 acres (1.3 km²) just south of Hillsboro, Oregon.[9] It is across the Tualatin River from Meriwether National Golf Course. When it first opened in 1997, memberships at this private and public course cost $15,000.[10] The two, 18-hole courses are rotated between being public and private daily.[10] The wine themed club has both a pro shop and restaurant, the Vintage Room, at the clubhouse and its own wine label.[11]
The South Course was designed by John Fought and has 110 bunkers over the nearly 7,400 yards with many trees as well.[11] It was named the eighth most difficult in Oregon and SW Washington by the Oregon Golf Association in 2006.[12] This 18 hole, par 72 course was named 15th best in Oregon for 2007–2008 by Golf Digest.[13] The par 4, 453 yard 17th hole earned the title of fifth best hole in 2003 by The Oregonian.[14]
Bob Cupp designed the North Course which includes an 11 acre (45,000 m²) lake, a creek, and 25 bunkers over 6,800 yards (6,200 m).[10] It also includes a 45,000 square foot (4180m²) green used for three holes.[10] This course features rolling mounds and green surrounds with short-grass.[11]

So is it correct to say that if I S-off before doing any modding with the phone, s-off is guranteed? And will HTC check for S-off during warranty check?
Are you S-OFF if you aren't check if firewater it's compatible with your device and you can S OFF I don't suggest you do this if you don't have some experience with things like this..

Matisyahu - Confidence
Artist: Matisyahu
Featuring: Collie Buddz
Producer: Stu Brooks, Joel Hamilton
Album: Akeda
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 1 votes )
Reservoir, the lead single off Matisyahu's next studio album, received a surprisingly cool reception when it hit our front page in late March, but the Jewish reggae phenom isn't letting the criticism get under his skin. Why? Because he's got self-Confidence—a character trait he urges listeners to cultivates on single numero dos. With Stu Brooks and Joel Hamilton's synth-laced reggae grooves as his backdrop, the artist lets listeners know how much his life improved when he let go of the fear and self-doubt holding him back. In regard to his 2011 rejection of his Hasidic trappings, he spits, "Got it on the inside. / I don't need to wear it out." Dancehall heavyweight Collie Buddz grabs the mic to deliver some faster-paced motivational bars on the back. Fans can download Confidence for free with a pre-order of Matisyahu's Akeda LP, which is slated to drop via Fallen Sparks on Tuesday, June 3.

Ahmedabad: Nov 15, 2012
Indian captain MS Dhoni decided to bat first after winning the toss against England at Ahmedabad in the first of the four-match Test series at Ahmedabad on Thursday. Dhoni said there will be little assistance for the fast bowlers at Ahmedabad.
The series has already been termed by the Indian media as a 'revenge series'. The Indian team management may refrain from acknowledging it but the players would want nothing but triumph on home soil against England, especially after the drubbing they received last year in the Old Blighty.
England, still seeking their first Test series win in India since 1984-85 seem upbeat to take on the hosts. The Alastair Cook-led England team, however, will find it challenging against India's new spin twins, Ravichandran Ashwin and Pragyan Ojha – despite the return of feisty batsman Kevin Pietersen – on turning tracks. Moreover, injury worries to few players has not been good news for the visitors ahead of the series opener.
India: Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, Cheteshwar Pujara, Sachin Tendulkar,Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (c&wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Zaheer Khan, Pragyan Ojha, Umesh Yadav.
England: Alastair Cook (c), Nick Compton, Jonathan Trott, Kevin Pietersen, Ian Bell, Matt Prior (wk), Samit Patel, Tim Bresnan, Graeme Swann, Stuart Broad, James Anderson.

This year, Greek Life gets an entire week
At the beginning of this semester, Sacred Heart University's Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Council decided to convert its annual Greek Weekend into a full week of events. The events began on Saturday, March 24 and will continue through Sunday, April 1.
The participation in the Greek community is rapidly increasing. As a result, "Greek Weekend" has now become "Greek Week."
"Due to the significant increase in numbers, we felt that our Greek Life was ready to participate in a full Greek Week," said junior Javier Vidal, president of the Interfraternity Council. "Therefore, both councils researched the various Greek Weeks of other colleges in order to get ideas and begin drafting our own Greek Week."
Participants kicked off the week with Relay for Life last Saturday. This event intended to have all organizations participate to help raise money for the American Cancer Society.
"It's my first Greek Week ever, and I'm really excited to have a fun week with my sorority and win on Sunday at the Greek Olympics," said Lauren Bruno, a member of Zeta Tau Alpha.
Last Sunday, Greek Life held a Mass for participants, followed by a single-elimination Family Feud tournament on Monday.
Yesterday was "Letter Day," and all Greek Life members were encouraged to wear their letters throughout the day. Tomorrow morning, there will be a breakfast held for all members.
Unity is one of the major themes of Greek Week, as well as simply having a good time.
"Greek Week is about unifying all of the Greek organizations," said Bridgett Carter, president of the Panhellenic Council. "It rewards everyone for all of the hard work that they have done throughout the school year."
On Friday, Greek Life will host its annual skit night. Each organization will develop and perform their own skit, and will be judged on a list of criteria. At the end of the event, a winner is declared.
During Saturday's barbecue event, each member is required to bring two canned items to contribute to a food drive for St. Charles Food Pantry.
Before the canned food is collected, each organization will compete in a sculpture contest. The organization will be given a box of props with a count of thirty minutes to create a sculpture.
Sunday's event, Greek Olympics, will be the last event during Greek Week. Each organization will compete in various events including kickball, tug-o-war, a water balloon toss, relay races, and various minute-to-win-it games. Fraternities and sororities will compete separately, and two winners will be declared at the end of the event.
"At the end of the week, a Greek Week Fraternity and Sorority are declared based of the organizations who accumulated the greatest number of points," said Vidal.
Sacred Heart's Greek Life is geared toward challenging and inspiring the student body in the classroom and beyond.
"Our Greek community is home to nearly 450 students and includes six sororities and four fraternities," states the university's website. "Each of our Greek organizations is based on the principles of leadership, scholarship, service and sisterhood or brotherhood."
For Carter, expanding Greek Weekend into a full week allows members more time for fun and camaraderie.
"It gives us more time to enjoy being a part of our organization, and allows us to reward all of the organizations for all of their hard work throughout the year with a fun week of activities," she said. "Greek Week is all about friendly competition and bringing organizations together, as well as Greek Life as a whole."

My wife and I stayed at this hotel a couple of years ago for a wedding and were quite pleased. This time, we had to come back to Edwardsville for a funeral, so as you can imagine, it was pretty short notice. I made reservations online 2 days before our arrival. I then phoned the front desk and spoke with the clerk because of the 3pm check in time. I explained that we needed to be at a visitation at 3pm, and wondered if early check in would be at all possible. She informed me that she could not guarantee it, but would make a note on my reservation, and also let the daytime manager know our ordeal. I was told to call the day of our reservation, on our way down, to see if early check in was possible. I called before we got into town, and was told that the room was ready for check in.... this was at 1030am! My wife and I were thrilled that the staff made this possible for us. It took some of the un-needed stress off of us, during an already stressful time.
We had a King Bed Studio Suite, as no other king rooms were available. The room was spacious and clean, and the bed was very comofortable. The hotels also sits away from everything, so as long as you don't have noisy neighbors, it is a quiet area. Breakfast was standard Hampton Inn fare, and we didn't have to fight a huge crowd in the dining area.
After speaking with other family members that stayed at other hotels in Edwardsville, it sounded like we payed the least amount for our room, and also had the nicest one. For the value and location, I would highly recommend this hotel.
I also want to thank the front desk staff and cleaning staff for making early check in possible. It is a "breath of fresh air" nowadays to have staff that really seem to care. When we return to Edwardsville, we will definitely be back.

Your missing my pointSubmitted by WilmingtonMAJ on Fri, 03/23/2012 - 7:48am.
I am not saying what the man did was wrong or that he didn't just have enough of the drug addled delinquents. I'm simply saying that if he thought that his actions would end in anything other than his firing, then he apparently has no grasp of reality. In this day and age, any teacher who raises a hand to a student is going to get fired. That is simply the world we live in. I'm not commenting on whether it's right or wrong, or what he did was right or wrong, but the man simply had to realize that if he was going to fight with students he was going to lose his job.

good news in mail but then my DD acts up
View NJJ-EXERCISE30's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from NJJ-EXERCISE30
Wednesday, July 17, 2013
Good Morning; The mailman brought a letter saying that the Army will pay DS about $400 a month until VA benefits kick in. It is a start. He is grateful for whatever he can get and survive. But now my DD is acting up, because while I was on vacation my DS tried to "commit suicide" from his deep depression. His GF called and I talked him down. In fact his puppy helped him wake up. When I got home, I have been working with him. He was not going to actually committed suicide - I know my son. It was a plea for help. I know my son enough if he wanted to actually kill himself he would have succeeded. In fact, I was talking to a counselor just yesterday about. I know if I could talk with him or text him I could talk him down.
I have done it before. He was in counseling and then something happened to his funding. He has filled out more paperwork for funding so hopefully it will kick in soon. He will then resume with his counselor. I told him that I would pay. He says I am not a charity case. My benefits need to pay.
But getting back to my DD, the GF send an email to my DD and got her all upset b/c she is over 500 miles away. She contacted me in Europe and I got in touch with DS. Now my DD wants me to tell DS not to come to the house when her daughter is in my care. This would make my DS feel like a monster. I feel it is a managed situation. My DS is actually ok now that we are back and his support system is here. He told me that he just did not want to get help. He was too depressed. I have talked to him on numerous occasions and he is fine and manageable. But when he was getting stupid letters from VA saying he has no medical benefits b/c he is making too much money or that his Vocational Rehab benefits would not activate b/c he is so injured that he can not work or go to school now. The plan that the Army set for him is falling apart. He felt worthless. I am a mother and DD must decide if she can trust her parents enough to make sure her daughter will be safe. She lives in an ideal world. But any mother who has a son with an combat injury and PTSD can understand. The sad part is that most people do not understand including family. I always say do not judge until you have walked in their shoes.

**SIGH** I would have done exactly the same thing that you did. Just don't know what to say about your DD, but I wouldn't have changed a thing about how you handled your DS. PTSD and depression definitely ARE serious and need to be managed. That requires understanding and patience .
HUGS and I am wishing all the very best for your son. It is just beyond words sad the way our vets are treated. What can I say.
Report Inappropriate Comment
If you don�t know it, you won�t know! I�m deployed in the Afghan as a civilian and have worked very close with the Wounded Warrior Project. Although some my not have visible wounds do not mean they are not suffering and reliving their ordeal. It is a very delicate situation which they are no always in control of. I will not pass the blame on anyone as I know, people who have falsified their conditions and are getting paid by the VA. I just pray that your son gets the help he deserves and need.

So many are going through this and, sadly, the general population doesn't understand.

The government doesn't help those with PTSD enough. These people actually fought in combat for this country, it is so wrong not to help them!

OMG. I hope he gets his counseling going again. Prayer and hugs for everyone. Please take care of yourself, so that you can help everyone else.

With my family's experiences from the VN war and the Afghanistan, and ARMY and consequent VA dealings I TOTALLY GET what you are talking about. PTSD is no joke. Neither is depression.
So good that you are supporting DS. DD surely will figure out that you are a responsible adult and trust you. Hope so anyhow. They say suicide is a cry for help, I believe that. . . .
I really hope DS doesn't fall through the VA "crack", I hope he get's the help and funding he needs to get healthy again. ARMY can ruin a person's mind. It nearly did mine, and I was only married to an ARMY guy!!
Wishing your family the best!!

Most people think depression (ie PTSD) is a switch you can flip and snap out of it. It is sad cause that attitude usually only makes it worse!!!

Playboy Club Cancun Brings Exciting Nightlife And Gaming To One Of The World's Most Popular Travel Destinations
CHICAGO, Dec. 2, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Playboy Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: PLA, PLAA) today announced the opening of Playboy Club Cancun, a boutique gaming and entertainment venue that features a restaurant, nightclub, casino, sports gaming, and sports lounge. The new property is located in the renowned hotel zone district of Cancun, Mexico, and will celebrate its opening on Saturday, December 4, with an invitation-only VIP party for Playboy Club members and a red-carpet celebrity event.
"I am pleased to bring the Playboy Club to Mexico for the first time and to combine the sexy sophistication of the Playboy brand with the international allure of Cancun," said Hugh M. Hefner, Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Playboy Enterprises, Inc. "With the opening of Playboy Club Cancun and the arrival of the Playboy Bunnies, nightlife there will never be the same!"
The 12,000 square foot property, designed by Archon Design, incorporates influences from the original Playboy Club in Chicago with the jet-setting ambience of tropical Mexico. The venue's intricate custom design details include an authentic Mexican hand-punched metallic wall featuring the iconic Playboy Rabbit Head Design; select pieces from Playboy's multi-million dollar art collection; and a specially commissioned illustration of the Cancun Playboy Bunny by famed pinup artist Don Lewis. The new property integrates gaming with contemporary nightlife, and will showcase an international mix of DJs and musical entertainment. Playboy Club Cancun also boasts a restaurant with a tapas menu offering flavors from around the world.
Playboy Club Cancun will feature the world famous Playboy Bunnies, who will be making their debut in Mexico. Bunnies at the Playboy Club Cancun will work as hostesses, cocktail servers, and Bunny dealers and hail from countries including Argentina, Cuba, Canada, Russia and Mexico.
"With the opening of this striking new venue, both Cancun residents and international visitors alike will now be able to experience the energy and excitement that the Playboy brand generates," said Scott Flanders, CEO, Playboy Enterprises, Inc. "By working with this caliber of strong local partners we have at Playboy Club Cancun, we will continue to grow our successful licensing and location based entertainment businesses around the world. We look forward to bringing the Playboy brand to life at additional Playboy venues in select global markets." Playboy Club Cancun will be owned and operated under license by Entretenimiento De Mexico S.A. De C.V., a leading Mexican casino company that operates and licenses over 18 gaming venues throughout the country under the Palmas group. The company and its subsidiaries serve over 2,500,000 players a year and also own and operate two restaurants. Entretenimiento De Mexico S.A. De C.V was established in 2005 and is headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico. Hugh M. Hefner opened the first Playboy Club in Chicago in 1960 and the venues quickly became the embodiment of urban sophistication around the world. In their more than two decades of operation, Playboy Clubs sold nearly 2.5 million membership keys and became one of the most successful nightclub chains in history. The Playboy Clubs, together with the hotel, casino and resort facilities, eventually included 40 properties in 25 states and seven countries. Playboy Club Cancun joins Playboy Club Las Vegas at The Palms Casino Resort, Playboy Club Macao, and future properties in development in Miami and London. About Playboy Enterprises, Inc.

Fall Couture 2013
Zuhair Murad
Front Row At Zuhair Murad
Front Row At Zuhair Murad
Kristen Stewart and Elsa Zylberstein were among attendees.
PLAYING DRESS UP: Elsa Zylberstein, who took in Zuhair Murad's fall couture show along with fellow actress Kristen Stewart, said she's always on the hunt for red-carpet dresses. "In the beginning, I say no more that two to three per year, but then it ends up being 10 or 15 [dresses], depending on how many films you do," she confessed.
And for Zylberstein, it's shaping up to be a busy second half. "I'm supposed to shoot a comedy this summer called 'Le mec de la tombe d'à coté' (or 'The guy from the tomb next door,' in English) about a rich widow who falls in love with a peasant visiting the grave of his mother next to her husband's. Then there is the new Anne Fontaine film in October, the next Claude Lelouch film after that, and next year I play the lead in Paul Verhoeven's film," she said.

Amazon fighting $234 million tax deficiency in Tax Court: filing
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN.O) is challenging a $234 million U.S. tax bill, contesting Internal Revenue Service tax calculations for cash transfers between the parent company and its European subsidiaries, according to a court filing.
The case centers on the pricing of payments among company units, an issue on which the government has lost some multi-million dollar cases against big companies.
The IRS notified Amazon of the tax deficiency in November 2012. The agency is also contesting taxes on Amazon's net operating losses, among other issues, according to the December 28, 2012 court filing.
"Transfer pricing" refers to how multinational corporations value goods and services moving across international borders from one corporate unit to another. The prices are frequently managed to reduce corporations' global tax costs.
Amazon argued that the IRS is overestimating the value of Amazon's "intangible property," which includes computer software, trademarks and marketing assets, according to the court filing.
The IRS argued that Amazon's European subsidiaries made taxable payments to its U.S. parent company based on a low-dollar estimate.
The IRS used an estimate method for calculating transfer pricing taxes that was overturned in a 2009 court decision involving Veritas Software Corp, now part of Symantec Corp, Amazon said.
Because the case was filed in U.S. Tax Court, Amazon is not required to pay the tax bill until the outcome of any court decision.
The case was first reported in the trade publication Tax Analysts.

The Mississippi State Bulldogs learned late Sunday night that they will be included in the NCAA Tournament field for the second-straight year under head coach Vann Stuedeman. MSU (32-22) will be playing at the Mobile (Ala.) Regional and take on Florida State in the first round at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. Mississippi Valley State and host South Alabama are the other teams in the field.
OXFORD – The situation looked bleak once again for the Mississippi State Bulldogs on Sunday afternoon. After five innings against the rival Ole Miss Rebels, Mississippi State was in danger of being swept for the second time in three weekends.
PEARL – The Starkville Yellowjackets had a dynamic duo at the Class 5A State championships Saturday afternoon. Kate Mattox and Damian Grady each claimed a pair of individual State titles in distance events as the SHS boys and girls teams both finished fifth in the state.

Starkville's year-long 175th birthday celebration concluded by locking a time capsule in a vault at the Starkville Public Library on Saturday.
Neither rain, nor the Harvard Crimson, could keep the Mississippi State men's tennis team from reaching the NCAA Round of 16 for the first time since 2001 on Saturday afternoon. The Bulldogs had to come back from losing the doubles point and waiting through two rain delays before catching fire in singles and taking the match over the Crimson 4-1 at Pitts Tennis Centre.
MABEN – The importance of winning game one of a series is always important in the mind of East Webster softball coach Lee Berryhill. As the Class 2A North State championship best-of-three series with the Baldwyn Lady Bearcats began, that approach didn't change. On Saturday, the Lady Wolverines provided what their coach desired as they defeated Baldwyn 6-4.

Under the hood of satellite empirical chlorophyll a algorithms: revealing the dependencies of maximum band ratio algorithms on inherent optical properties |
Optics Express, Vol. 20, Issue 19, pp. 20920-20933 (2012)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1654 KB)
Empirically-based satellite estimates of chlorophyll a [Chl] (e.g. OC3) are an important indicator of phytoplankton biomass. To correctly interpret [Chl] variability, estimates must be accurate and sources of algorithm errors known. While the underlying assumptions of band ratio algorithms such as OC3 have been tacitly hypothesized (i.e. CDOM and phytoplankton absorption covary), the influence of component absorption and scattering on the shape of the algorithm and estimated [Chl] error has yet to be explicitly revealed. We utilized the NOMAD bio-optical data set to examine variations between satellite estimated [Chl] and in situ values. We partitioned the variability into (a) signal contamination and (b) natural phytoplankton variability (variability in chlorophyll-specific phytoplankton absorption). Not surprisingly, the OC3 best-fit curve resulted from a balance between these two different sources of variation confirming the bias by detrital absorption on global scale. Unlike previous descriptions of empirical [Chl] algorithms, our study (a) quantified the mean detrital:phytoplankton absorption as ~1:1in the global NOMAD data set, and (b) removed detrital (CDOM + non-algal particle) absorption in radiative transfer models directly showing that the scale of the remaining variability in the band ratio algorithm was dominated by phytoplankton absorption cross section.
