Everything was fine.
Posted Jan 28, 2015I have stayed here before and thought it was not quite as nice as it used to be, but still a pleasant place to stay. Although someone was smoking in the non-smoking area, but the front desk clerk did look into the situation for us and we did not notice the odor the next morning. Breakfast was O.K. It would be nice to have some eggs and bacon instead of just biscuits and gravy and waffles. They could use some new chairs in the front lobby as they seemed very low and worn out. Staff was very friendly and nice.

Decent Hotel @ Decent Price
Posted Jan 27, 2015Pros: Quiet, clean room with nice updates.
Cons: Please put on Expedia that they WILL put a 25.00 incidental fee charge on a card when you check in, regardless.
Location: The roads need to be resurfaced so watch for POTHOLES. Lots of food options near by.
The room was clean and comfortable. Nicely updated. Even though the hotel was busy and we were on the 1st floor, it was fairly quiet. Main complaints are the same as other peoples. The pizza place next door over flows into the Ramada parking so if you don't park and stay you'll wind up having to park behind the hotel, which is fine, but it's poorly lit and there are no evident indications that there IS more parking in back. The other issue was that both the whirlpool pool feature and umbrella water feature in the pool were broken. The pool was a deciding feature when we were picking the hotel as we have little ones who would have loved it. I would suggest if you are looking to book the hotel because of kid friendly pool features, CALL THEM 1st to make sure everything is in working order. Otherwise, while it's still fun to swim, you'll feel a little let down.

Charged $250 for a smoking room...
Posted Jan 22, 2015Hotel clerk seemed to be nice, but very fake. The hotel smells like it is over perfumed. Some of the towels in the room had makeup stains on them. The pool is super small and smells to be over chlorinated. One of the rooms we used was called and told this is a no smoking hotel. They said ok. After we left I found a charge of $250 to this hotel. I called to ask why. They said they had proof. I asked what is it and they said they didn't know. Called and talk to Aaron, the manager, he mentione nothung about proof. Said this is the way they do buisness. My problem is the hotel employees had two opportunities to inform us they were going to charge this. Once when they called the room and the other time is when I took the keys to the front desk. Not to mention they had my phone number and still chose not to call and inform us of this charge. Also I had to pay a $75 deposit on the room. Is this not what that deposit is for?

President Vicente Fox's administration, caving in to pressure from the US and Canadian governments, has eased its tight restrictions on the export of tequila and has agreed to allow bulk shipments to bottlers in the US and other countries. In 2003, Mexico exported 101 million liters of tequila, of which almost 70% of was shipped in bulk containers.The restrictions, which went into effect at the beginning of 2004, were intended to help the Mexican government maintain greater control over the quality of tequila by prohibiting bulk shipments of the popular spirit and restricting bottling operations to 180 approved locations in Mexico (see SourceMex, 2003-10-01).
The decision to enact export controls had attracted strong protests from US tequila distributors, which threatened to bring the matter before the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). After consultations with US and Canadian officials, the Fox administration decided to ease the restrictions.
Mexican bottlers Sauza and Cuervo also were instrumental in convincing the Fox government to change its decision. Sauza is owned partially by British-based Allied Domecq, while Cuervo owns bottling operations in the US.
The Fox administration defended the move to scrap the restrictions as beneficial to the tequila industry because this would allow Mexico to maintain its share in the US spirits market. Tequila accounts for 4.7% of the US spirits market, with sales increasing by 62% since 1990.
The Secretaria de Economia (SE) said the government was concerned that the overall volume of Mexican tequila exports would have fallen by as much as 25% if shipments were restricted only to bottles. This, in turn, would have sharply increased the cost of Mexican tequila in the US market, which would have resulted in a loss of market share to other spirits, said SE official Miguel Aguilar Romo.
US bottlers welcomed the Fox government's decision with open arms. "We're grateful that Mexico has acknowledged that it's not in Mexico's or the tequila industry's interest to require bottling at the source," said Debbie Lamb, vice president of international affairs for the Distilled Spirits Council.
Jalisco state legislators protest decision
The government's decision to scrap the restrictions did not sit well with legislators in Jalisco, which is the largest tequila producing state. In early April, the Jalisco legislature approved a resolution asking the federal Congress to force the Fox administration to comply with the original ruling. According to the resolution, the overriding concern should be the benefit to local communities, including the creation of jobs. The increased employment would come not only in the form of more jobs at bottling plants, but also through indirect jobs at companies that supply the tequila industry, said the resolution.
Jalisco legislators also argue that the original rule would benefit growers of agave cactus, which is used in the production of tequila. By bottling the tequila in Mexico, bottlers ensure that pure agave is employed in the manufacture of the popular spirit, increasing domestic demand for the cactus. In contrast, say critics, tequila that is shipped overseas can sometimes be diluted with a 49% sugar cane base and still be considered the authentic product, even though it will not carry the "premium" label that identifies the product as containing 100% agave.
To address concerns about quality, the Fox administration and the Consejo Regulador del Tequila (CRT) are developing a plan to maintain control over the bottling process in the US and other countries. Among the proposals under consideration is requiring that tequila bottled at foreign plants be certified by Mexican inspectors.

An array can have many dimensions. Multidimensional arrays are available using a special syntax in the C# language. They model complex spaces without using a lot of custom code. In rare programs they are useful.
First, this example program written in the C# language demonstrates the use of a three-dimensional array. You can declare and initialize the multidimensional array using the comma syntax.
Also:You can loop over any 3D array using this example code. Adding levels to the for-loop allows it to handle greater dimensions.
ForC# program that uses three-dimensional array using System; class Program { static void Main() { // Create a three-dimensional array. int[, ,] threeDimensional = new int[3, 5, 4]; threeDimensional[0, 0, 0] = 1; threeDimensional[0, 1, 0] = 2; threeDimensional[0, 2, 0] = 3; threeDimensional[0, 3, 0] = 4; threeDimensional[0, 4, 0] = 5; threeDimensional[1, 1, 1] = 2; threeDimensional[2, 2, 2] = 3; threeDimensional[2, 2, 3] = 4; // Loop over each dimension's length. for (int i = 0; i < threeDimensional.GetLength(2); i++) { for (int y = 0; y < threeDimensional.GetLength(1); y++) { for (int x = 0; x < threeDimensional.GetLength(0); x++) { Console.Write(threeDimensional[x, y, i]); } Console.WriteLine(); } Console.WriteLine(); } } } Output 100 200 300 400 500 000 020 000 000 000 000 000 003 000 000 000 000 004 000 000
In this example, we use an int[, ,] type—a three-dimensional integer array reference type. When using a multidimensional array, you should specify the dimension lengths on the array creation expression, not the type itself.
Int ArrayTip:We access elements in a 2D or 3D array using the comma syntax in the array index. We read and write elements using this syntax.
Note:The program first shows how to write elements. It then shows how to read elements in a nested loop.
2D ArrayAlso, the GetLength instance method is available on all constructed array types. To use the GetLength method, pass it one parameter. This parameter is the dimension of the array you want to check.
Tip:A three-dimensional array has three allowed values. You can access the dimension 0, dimension 1 and dimension 2.
Let's consider the uses of multidimensional arrays such as three-dimensional arrays in the C# language. In computer science textbooks, multidimensional arrays are used to model problems that occur in the real world in several dimensions.
For example, two-dimensional arrays model a plane while three-dimensional arrays model a cube or other structure. Structures such as 4D arrays can be used for systems that do not truly require four dimensions but just need more space.
Unfortunately, in the C# language, two-dimensional arrays and all multi-dimensional arrays are slower than one-dimensional arrays when accessing elements. Instead, jagged arrays can be used.
Jagged ArraysNote:Here at Dot Net Perls world headquarters, I occasionally make mistakes on code examples.
And:The original version of this article printed out the 3D array in an incorrect way. Kenny Lindstrom wrote in with a correction.
We looked at multidimensional arrays in the C# language. The comma declarator syntax is used to specify this exact type. You can loop over the arrays in order using some helper methods on the array type.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
East St. Paul open(ing) for business
Professional, retail landscape taking shape
Commercial and retail development has a long way to go to catch up to the burgeoning residential developments in East St. Paul and Riverbend around the Red River and the Perimeter Highway.
But inroads are starting to be made.
Developers say demand for neighbourhood and professional services on north Henderson Highway and north Main Street is strong, but there has always been a lack of land for development.
Patience on the part of developers of the residential development called Countryside Crossing has paid off, and 154 large-lot residential properties are in the process of being prepared. (An adjacent 150-lot residential development is also in the works.)
As part of that project, a 55,000-square-foot commercial development on the east side of Henderson Highway just south of the Perimeter has also received all of its zoning approvals to commence development.
While not nearly the same size as the growing south Winnipeg residential developments such as Waverley West and Lindenwoods and the sprawling, successful commercial developments springing up to service them, developers who have focused on those growing affluent neighbourhoods on the northern cusp of the city line say the only thing holding them back is available land to work with.
John Prall of Colliers International is marketing Countryside Centre and is leasing another 24,000-square-foot commercial building on north Main at Ridgecrest Avenue.
"When you look at the segment on Main Street north of Chief Peguis Trail (as well as the East St. Paul neighbourhoods just north of the Perimeter off Henderson) it's very safe to say residential growth rates are equivalent to what we see in south Winnipeg, with very similar demographics and all-new home construction. It just is a smaller enclave."
Marshall Freed, the developer of Countryside Crossing and Countryside Centre, has owned that land for several decades. For many years, it housed Maxwell King stables, his father's horse stables and breeding barns for his racehorses.
The stables closed about 10 years ago, but it was a much longer process to get a proper development plan in place.
"The forethought all along was to develop the land," he said. "No one in our family thought it would take 50 years."
In fact, several years ago there was a plan to do a big box retail development on the 31-hectare site. But Rural Municipality of East St. Paul zoning regulations put the kibosh to that.
"That was definitely turned down by the community," Freed said, without any tone of bitterness or frustration. "We let that fold and waited for the opportune time to develop. We think the time is right now."
As for commercial/retail development, the zoning plan is specific.
"The theme of this is not to be a large-format retail," Prall said. "They (the RM of East St. Paul) want unique neighbourhood commercial to service the immediate trade area."
So with just a preliminary concept in place, the only thing Prall knows for sure is the $10-million centre will not have a grocery store anchor or any typical big-box presence.
The 2.3-hectare site -- which will have its own traffic-light intersection at Henderson leading into the new roadway for the residential development connecting to Gateway Road -- will likely feature three or four buildings, with fall 2013 occupancy of the first phase depending on demand.
"We see an opportunity for some unique independent restaurants or specialty food stores," he said. "We have had good interest from medical/professional services. We're also targeting financial services. The idea for the centre is to service the local trade area."
Not including East Kildonan -- after all, the centre will be on the south side of the Perimeter -- there is a catchment area of over 8,000 people up to and including the town of Birds Hill.
It's the same on the other side of the river. Prall is filling a 32,000-square-foot development in three buildings at Main Street and Ridgecrest Avenue north of Chief Peguis Trail. Anchored by an oral surgical centre owned by the property developer, Prall said he's also got commitments from a convenience store, a quick-service restaurant and one other neighbourhood service.
Greg Michie is someone who does not have to be persuaded about the commercial development potential of East St. Paul.
The successful real estate broker liked the area so much, when the Henderson Highway building his former office was located in was sold, Michie bought a piece of developable land 1.6 kilometres north of the Perimeter on Henderson to build his own office plus a lot more.
The 28,000-square-foot development at Highland Park, now in its third phase, is home to a brand-new medical clinic with nine doctors, a lab and a pharmacy.
Construction is just finishing on the second phase and he said construction could start on the third phase this summer.
"The community loves it that we're here," he said. "I really didn't think I was taking a chance. You look at the residential development in the area, and it's only increasing. And what a pleasant environment to work in."
With the rural municipality maintaining effective control so as to avoid overdevelopment, pent-up demand is likely to see the region continue to be on developers' radar screens for years to come.

5 Wow!!!! Have been waiting for this for ages-Not disappointedMusicmadD | 23/11/2009 | See all MusicmadD's reviews (1)Watched Adam all way through American Idol and couldn't wait for today. Ordered on pre-order as soon as it became available- arrived today - love every track! Is there nothing this guy can't sing? He must come to UK soon!! Each track is very different and shows off his vocal range a treat! More please!!
5 TOP QUALITYJacko714 | 12/11/2009 | See all Jacko714's reviews (1)I watched this lad on American Idol and he was several leagues above everyone else in the competition. The fact he didn't win shows how fixed and orchestrated these shows are. He has a fabulous voice. He can sing anything. He did up tempo songs like Black and White (MIchael Jackson) and Born to be Wild. But he could also sing the slow songs like Tracks of my tears and Madworld. He is very current and will have numerous fans in the UK once he comes over here. Definitely worth buying this album
3 Very good but not what i expected.Demonarrows | 24/11/2009 | See all Demonarrows's reviews (1)Im judging this on the album itself as I too was stunned by Adam's vocal ability on the show. Definatly there are lots of different songs on there which is good, but for me theres a bit too much synth.I heard the song time for miracles first which blew me away and was dissapointed not to see more songs like that on there.Im definatly a fan but Im not going to pretend it is flawless just because he was so good on american Idol...in my opinion the songs could have shown him off way better, the album makes him sound...ordinary?
2 Very disappointingKatefatso | 04/12/2009 | See all Katefatso's reviews (1)I was Adam's biggest fan while on American Idol. I couldn't wait for this album, had preordered it etc. Could not believe he made a pop album. The changes he made to the songs on American Idol were genius, the songs on this album are nowhere near. Just one of the same pop albums with no imagination or something to make him stand out. Kind of feels like the producers didn't let him be himself. So disappointed.....
5 cazzer1cazzer1 | 03/11/2010 | See all cazzer1's reviews (1)Amazing artist with amazing talent.I love all the tracks,favourite is "if I had you" I was visiting family in USA when I saw him on Idol "WOW" he just blew me away.

Masona Grill Restaurant Review: Masona Grill is a cozy, easygoing reflection of its cozy, easygoing neighborhood, West Roxbury --- until you open the menu. Then its horizons expand to the Mediterranean. Latin flavors dominate with lots of cumin, lime and mint, but not to the exclusion of others, particularly Euro-Mediterranean; more importantly, their fusion is generally deft. It never occurred to us that pickled onions and balsamic might stand up to grilled chicken livers, but so they do and quite well. Grilled swordfish, served with a spicy hot pepper sauce and Spanish slaw, and a dark chili-rubbed pork tenderloin with black beans, sweet maduros and garlicky spinach are standouts. End the meal with the light coconut cake with hazelnut praline, topped with caramel sauce. |

ClassicsOnline Home » PAGANINI: Music for Violin and Guitar, Vol. 1
Nicolo Paganini (1782 - 1840)
Music tor Violin and Guitar Vol. 1 Sonata Concertata in A Major 6 Sonatas Op. 3 Variations on Barucaba, Op. 14 Cantabile in D Major
Paganini's popular reputation rested always on his phenomenal technique as a violinist, coupled with a showman's ability to dominate an audience and to stupefy those who heard him by astonishing feats of virtuosity. His playing served as an inspiration to other performers in the nineteenth century, suggesting to Chopin, in Warsaw, the piano Etudes, and to Liszt the material of the Paganini studies that he w rote in 1838. The very appearance of Paganini impressed people. His gaunt aquiline features, his suggestion of hunched shoulders, his sombre clothing, gave rise to legends of association with the Devil, the alleged source of his power, an association supported by the frequent appearance by his side on his travels of his secretary, one Harris, thought by some to be a familiar spirit or a Mephistopheles watching over his Faust. Stories of a pact with the Devil were denied by Paganini himself, who, with characteristic understanding of the value of public relations in a more credulous age, told of an angelic visitation to his mother, in a dream, foretelling his birth and his genius.
Paganini was born in Genoain 1782 and was taught the violin first by his father, an amateur, and then by a violinist in the theatre orchestra and by the better known violinist Giacomo Costa, under whose tuition he gave a public performance in 1794. The following year he played to the violinist and teacher Alessandro Rolla in Parma, and on the latter's suggestion studied composition there under Paer. After are turn to Genoa and removal during the Napoleonic invasion, he settled in 1801 in Lucca, where, after 1805, he became solo violinist to the new ruler, Princess Elisa Baciocchi, sister of Napoleon. At the end of 1809 he left, to travel during the next eighteen years throughout Italy, winning a very considerable popular reputation. It was not until1828 that he made his first concert-tour abroad, visiting Vienna, Prague and then the major cities of Germany, followed by Paris and London in 1831. His international career as a virtuoso ended in 1834, when, after an unsatisfactory tour of England, he returned again to Italy, to Parma. A return to the concert-hall in Nice and then, with considerable success, in Marseilles, was followed by an unsuccessful business venture in Paris, the Casino Paganini, which was intended to provide facilities equally for gambling and for music. With increasing ill health, he retired to Nice, where he died in 1840.
Although he is popularly known principally for his violin music, Paganini wrote a large number of compositions for the guitar, an instrument of which he also demonstrated mastery. He left no less than 140 shorter pieces for the instrument, with 28 duos for violin and guitar, and a number of trios and quartets that make use of the instrument. He had had some familiarity with the instrument as a child in Genoa. When in 1801 he finally gained freedom from his family and established himself in Lucca, according to later legend he fell in love with a woman known to us only as Dida, whose identity is unknown but whose connection with Paganini is attested by dedications of some of his later compositions using guitar. These early years in Lucca were subsequently the subject of gossip, with speculation as to the nature of the affair in which Paganini was involved, or even suggestions that he had spent time, some eighty ears, in prison for the murder either of his mistress or of his rival in love. These rumours Paganini later took the trouble to deny. Whatever amorous intrigues had occupied him in Lucca, it seems that he devoted some attention to the guitar as well as to the violin, his technique of left-hand pizzicato in the latter to some extent suggested by the technique of the former.
The first of his sonatas for violin and guitar, the Sonata concertata in A major, was written in 1804 and dedicated to Signora Emilia di Negri, the wife of one of Paganini's earliest patrons in Genoa, the Marchese Giancarlo di Negri. In this sonata the two instruments are evenly matched in the three movements, an opening Allegro, a moving Adagio and a lively final Rondo.
The two sets of sonatas for violin and guitar, Opus 2 and Opus 3, seem to have been composed during early years in Lucca. The six sonatas of Opus 3 were dedicated Alla ragazza Eleonora, to the girl Eleonora, a relation of a priest and musician, Abbate Domenico Quilici, who may well have been of help to Paganini in the development of his more general musical ability. The first of the set of sonatas has a charming if brief second movement. Double stopping by the violin marks the first movement of Opus 3, No.2. It is followed by a movement more scherzoso than andantino. This leads to a sonata that opens with a violin melody of now familiar contour, capped in a second movement by a spritely Rondo, its principal theme answered by a dramatic minor episode. The fourth sonata starts with a suggestion of recitative, contrasted with a more lyrical figure, the whole operatic in conception. The second movement, marked Allegretto, has a conventionally Turkish flavour in its principal theme, soon submerged in pyrotechnics. The amorous double stopping that marks the first movement of the fifth sonata suggests that of Caprice No.21, answered by an opera buffa last movement that finds a place for virtuoso violin display and briefly lyrical moments for the guitar. The set ends with a melancholy A minor Andante, any such feeling quickly dispelled by the cheerful folk-song that dominates the second movement and the virtuoso display of left-hand pizzicato.
Paganini's variations on the Genoese melody Barucaba were written in 1835 and dedicated to Luigi Germi, a friend and lawyer who was of great assistance to him in financial matters. The sixty variations, three sets of twenty in the original version for unaccompanied violin, provide an opportunity for technical virtuosity from the violinist, while demonstrating the composer's ingenuity in his varied treatment of a very simple tune, repeated in conclusion. The present variations for violin and guitar are drawn from the third book, with an unchanged violin part, to which guitar accompaniment is added. The flowing Cantabile is of uncertain date and it has been suggested that it was written for Paganini's protégé Camillo Sivori, a native of Genoa and a violinist of very great ability.
Scott St. John Born in London, Ontario, the Canadian violinist and violist Scott St. John has impressed critics and audiences, with a number of awards to his credit, including the 1988 Canada Council Competition, which brought the loan of the 1717 Stradivarius violin that he plays. A graduate of the Curtis Institute, he made his New York debut, playing violin and viola, in 1988, as first-prize winner of the Alexander Schneider Violin and Viola Competition. Other awards have included first prize at the 1992 Munich International Violin Competition. Scott St. John has appeared as a soloist with major orchestras in America, Europe and Japan, including the Cleveland and Philadelphia Orchestras and the Royal Philharmonic in London.
The guitarist Simon Wynberg was educated in South Africa, later taking a Master's degree at the University of London, spending the years from 1978 to 1991 in the English capital. He has recently settled in Toronto. Simon Wynberg has won a very considerable reputation as a soloist and as a chamber musician, as well as for his research into guitar repertoire and his resulting editions and publications. He founded and directs the annual Blair Atholl Festival in Scotland and enjoys a distinguished career on both sides of the Atlantic. His recordings include an acclaimed set of ten discs devoted to the guitar works of Zani de Ferranti and a Bach Recital Album.

Janis proposes stiffer penalties for child endangerment
A Louisa County child abuse case sparked legislation proposed by Del. William R. Janis, R-Glen Allen, to increase penalties for anyone convicted of endangering a child.
The case involved Louisa residents Laura and Ronald Jewell, who were accused of torturing their 8-year-old granddaughter. The prosecutor, Louisa Commonwealth's Attorney Tom Garrett Jr., said the girl sneaked out of her house on July 8, 2010 and ran to neighbor's home for help. The neighbors, upon hearing a noise around 3 a.m., opened their door and found the girl, who was covered in bruises. She told the neighbors that she had been beaten and asked for help. The neighbors then proceeded to call 911. The little girl was missing significant chunks of hair, Garrett said. She had open sores behind her ears and a small portion of one of her ears was missing. One of her ankles was broken and she had what looked like cigarette burns all over her body, he said. The Jewell grandparents, with whom the girl was living, had made a "home-security system" to keep her in her room, Garrett said. They did so by tying a pan to her doorknob, which would make lots of noise when she would try and open the door. Laura Jewell was convicted of malicious wounding and felony child abuse and neglect, and faces up to 30 years in prison when she is sentenced next month. Ronald Jewell pleaded guilty to felony child neglect and also faces substantial prison time. The issue at hand, Garrett said, is that child torture statues are located in the child labor section of Virginia legislation. The judge presiding over the Jewell case stated that since the grandmother wasn't the child's employer, she couldn't enact the penalties that come along with a child labor law infraction. Janis said the problem is that the statutes pertained more to child labor laws as opposed to child abuse under criminal code. The acts that came out of those discussions were labor-related and not catered to children who were physically harmed by a parent, he said. "We want to have as many teeth for physical abuse as we do for sexual abuse," Garrett said. Legislative changes would give prosecutors more ways to help victims and convict abusers. The bill Janis proposes, HB 1996, would make it a Class 3 felony with additional penalties for cases similar to the Jewell convictions. A related measure he submitted, HB 1995, would allow victims of child pornography to collect civil damages from offenders. "There are three things we're trying to do within these codes. Firstly, we want to move child torture and abuse from the child labor codes to the criminal code. Secondly, we want increased restitution for the victims of said abuse. And thirdly, we want more distinctions within the code regarding levels of offenses," Garrett said. There is currently nothing within the code that addresses the varying atrocities of child abuse, torture and neglect, he said. Garrett said he spoke with Janis early on in the Jewell case about the various issues within the code. Janis was eager to try to make improvements, he said. With regard to this year's legislative session, "I'm afraid because budget times are so tight," Garrett said. More people in prison means more money spent. This isn't something a lot of lawmakers are going to want to hear, he said, "but if you're breaking kids' ankles, in my opinion, you deserve to be in jail." – Liz Monahan is a reporter for Capital News Service |
RAMPS receives $8k grant
Citizen Staff Reports 03/03/2015
RAMPS (Ramp Access Made Possible by Students) recently received an $8,000 grant from the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation.

Travinia brings contemporary elegance to Willow Lawn
It was another win for Willow Lawn when Travinia Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar opened there six months ago, nestled in the heart of the re-made shopping center. The contemporary American Italian restaurant boasts 13 locations up and down the East Coast, with the Henrico location opening in August.
In the same week, I hit up Travinia twice, once for lunch and once for a late dinner. At lunchtime on a weekday, I was overwhelmed by the smell of garlic and by the number of working professionals in nice suits on their lunch breaks. When we first walked in, I was concerned our meal would be a little too pricey based on the décor – it's a really nice place. Luckily, the menu has a variety of options for every budget. > Read more.
Soak up the fun
'SpongeBob' movie energizes with wit, laughter
There's a ton of sugar in The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. Literal sugar, as SpongeBob Squarepants (Tom Kenny) and Patrick (Bill Fagerbakke) inhale their own weight in cotton candy and eat ice cream, one scoop per mouthful.
At one point we burrow into the brain of our boxy yellow hero and discover the inner workings of his brain: googly-eyed cakes and candies that giggle and sing. All of which is extremely appropriate for a film like Sponge Out of Water. Because not only is the movie sweet (the "awwww" kind of sweet), but it's the equivalent of a 30-candy bar sugar rush, zipping between ideas like a sponge on rocket skates.
The story under all this is really not that complicated. SpongeBob flips burgers at the Krusty Krab. > Read more.

Just got myself a wetsuit. Anyone got any tips or advise on open water swimming?
Is it a lot different from pool swimming? Apart from the obvious that it's outside!
And what about during a race, any tips on getting the wetsuit on & off quickly?

Ive heard OW swims are a little easier than pools if its not to choppy as the suit gives a lot of boyancy?
Not done any OW myself so this isnt personal exerpience, looking forward to see what others have to say as ill be dipping my toe into OW later in the year.
For fear of jacking the thread can someone describe how the indoor Tri swims work to as ive not done one either -
1) Is it a bit like a time trial with swimmers going on alloted intervals?
2) How do they know how many lengths youve done?
3) What happens if you catch the swimmer in front can you get held up or pass?

New to it myself last year - odd at first but you soon get into it. Are you sea, river or lake?
Training in open water is obviously different 'cos you don't get walls to hang on to to get your breath!!! you just have to keep going! So take it steady and keep a good rhythm. Try bilateral breathing as well - a good tactic for races and it helps you keep better control.
That said.............................
during a race - its like being in a washing machine - legs and arms thrashing about all over the place - no neat lanes to swim in! your breathing training is wated as you simply fight for survival!
Great fun! Just enjoy it!
Most people swear by body glide particularly around the ankles to help get the suit off. Good body moisturiser - or even spray on cooking oil(!) will do, but watch out for the guarantee on your suit - vaseline etc may negate any warranty.

Well I have only done 1 tri late last year so am no expert but on the application form you had to estimate your swim time, then the slower swimmers go off first. Everyone gets an allocated swim start.They had people counting your lengths for you.
If you caught someone it was ok to pass.

Hi all
One of the things about OW swimming is that you will have to be "sighting" the bouy or other marker. So you will have to get yourself (and yoru neck muscles!) used to looking up and forwards every once in a while, as well as your normal "side" breaths. Practice this in the pool. Also - if you don't mind looking like a wally - practice in the pool with your eyes shut. See how much you veer off course. There's no black line on the bottom of the sea or a river!
It's colder, and teh cold may well shock you when you first get in, and make it seem harder to breath. Practice will get you used to this.
Wetsuit technique - get BodyGlide-d up beforehand. Then when you get out, unzip yourself and get your arms out ASAP. Then stand still, roll it down, get one leg out and then stand on it to get your other leg out - but other techniques may work better for you.
Pool tris - you go off in stagggered starts depending on the time you put for your swim on the entry. So people doing 10 mins for 400m will go before those doing 6 mins. They count lengths for you and either tap your head, or put a board in asying "2 to go" (or similar) when...you have 2 left to go! As for passing, if you touch the person in front's feet, they *should* let you pass either in the lane if enough room, or at the next end of the lane. If they don't, you might just have to go for it anyway...

Interesting to hear how pool tris are handled in Britain. Over here swimmers are indeed seeded by projected finish times but we usually start 6 to 8 in each lane, so swimmers of different abilities and age groups are filtered into the same lane. You all agree beforehand on the probable order according to speed, and we swim always on the right side of the lane. If someone is faster and wants to pass, they simply move out to your left and swim past. Works fine. To count, each swimmer in the lane wears a different colour cap, and there are several timers to each lane. A float is dangled in front of you as you come up for your final lap.
Open water swims are a free-for-all mass start - I've been punched, kicked in the face and chest, and even pushed under the water by one guy so he could swim over me! I usually start well to the side of the pack.
Very important to keep sighting every few strokes - it's amazing how much you can drift off course and that means extra metres and more time!

An empowered group of ministers on drought, headed by Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar, is scheduled to meet on Tuesday for deciding on relief measures to tackle drought-like situation in some states that has led to fodder and water scarcity.
As of now, monsoon rains are deficient by 21 per cent across India, affecting sowing of kharif crops. Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Haryana, Punjab and West Rajasthan have been the worst-hit regions this year.
On Sunday, Pawar had said the country could face serious situation if rains do not occur in next two months.
Sources said the Empowered Group of Ministers would primarily focus an addressing fodder and water scarcity, besides insulating farmers from higher input cost.
The panel would also discuss steps such as the possibility of stockholding limits and ban on futures trade in agri-items for controlling food inflation.
Pointing out that the scarcity of fodder and water was a major cause of concern in most states facing drought-like
That apart, the EGoM may discuss providing subsidy on power and diesel for farmers and also take a view on relief packages sought by the state governments, particularly Karnataka, Maharashtra and Punjab, the source added.
The government has conceded that production in 2012-13 would be lower than the last year's record output.
"It is certainly not possible to achieve 257.44 million tonnes of foodgrains production this year. It is too early to say how much would be the actual fall in output," Agriculture Secretary Ashish Bahuguna told PTI last week.
Sowing area of total kharif crops has declined by 10 per cent so far at 66.82 million hectare.
Coarse cereals is worst affected with 23 per cent shortfall, followed by pulses (18 per cent), paddy (9 per cent) and cotton (7 per cent).
The country had faced severe drought in 2009 which had brought the foodgrain production down to 218 million tonnes.

Ducks expect reserves to play major role this season
Posted by Rob Moseley
Here's a story I filed for today's editions:
The few starting jobs that were up for grabs on the Oregon football team this preseason have been filled, so with just days left until the opener, the Ducks are parsing through their reserves.
Depth seems to be as good as ever for the Ducks, good news for a team that plays at a frantic pace. And with New Mexico coming to Autzen Stadium on Saturday at 12:30 p.m., off a 1-11 season last year, Oregon's reserves could be in line for some significant action.
A year ago Oregon held the ball on average 26 minutes, 18 seconds, per game, fourth-lowest in the country. A quick-strike offense meant the Ducks didn't need the ball very long to score, but it also stressed a defense that was on the field for 953 snaps in 2009, most in the Pac-10.
The UO defense responded to that challenge by allowing 4.6 yards per play last fall, fewest in the conference. But Chip Kelly wants to use more players on defense in 2010, to ease the burden a bit.
"If we're going to continue to play the way we are offensively, there has to be some things you've got to do defensively," Kelly said. "Our defense faces more snaps than a lot of people. Instead of complaining about it, then what are we going to do about it? So we're going to play more people on defense."
In 2009 the Ducks used a primary rotation of six players on the line, five at linebacker — until Josh Kaddu was injured at midseason — and several defensive backs. This fall the Ducks will expand those numbers across the board, to perhaps eight linemen, as many as seven linebackers and about as many defensive backs.
Expanding the rotation serves the dual purpose of keeping guys fresh while providing experience to backups. But, Kelly pointed out, it's only possible if the backups can hold their own.
"Our ones and twos on defense are really close," he said. Click here for the complete story.
The Register-Guard doesn't necessarily condone the comments here, nor does it review every post.

Thank you , Rob! One of the most informative articles that will run all year, I think. Hope everyone reads it.
Couple of key points:
1) The UO defense allowed 4.6 yards per play last fall, fewest in the conference. That is a direct rebuttal for the Aliotti critics that insist if the defense played better they wouldn't be on the field so much. Easier said than done when you are playing opposite our hurry-up fast-scoring offense.
2) The article explains the rationale for changes in offensive line assignments this year. We may disagree, but once again the coaches are smarter than we are and know exactly why they do what they do.
3) For those that are hung up on the defensive 2-deep: No need to worry. Everyone will get plenty of work this year.
StumptownSteve, Stumptown
One nice thing about using more defensive players is that the backups have a chance to be more successful if they only play a limited number of snaps, they can be full of energy each down, while learning, spelling the first string, and wearing out the opposition. Another is that more players feel like they contributed, building team. The additional energy should allow for a more "attack" defense. If successful, the O gets the ball back quickly, if we get burned on occasion, oh well, O gets back on the field anyway. I like it.
3 days.
Richard Maloney, email@example.com
Great points are made about just how the time of possession stats are skewed and meaningless when it comes to the Ducks. So what if Oregon holds the ball less time than the opponent, which they are pasting by thirty or more points? This offense scores from anywhere, and frequently. Inherently, this requires the defense to play more than, say, the defense at Wazzu.
Remember the Fouts-led Chargers of the late '70's and early '80's? Lots of flack was taken by their defense, when, in truth, Fouts and company were scoring so fast they put their defense on the field WAY more than other teams did. Actually, the Charger's defense was pretty doggone good. It was simply hard to see that in the box scores.
As we go into this season, everyone knows just how "multiple" the UO offense is in terms of play selection and options within each play. It is something which makes this team fun to watch for folks who simply like a good football fix.
Yet there is ANOTHER aspect of this offense which is "multiple." If UO ever wants to drain the clock, it can do so with the very best of 'em. Look over the 4th quarter of last year's Civil War, and you'll see exactly what I mean.
Three days and counting.

3 Days gents…..
I'm really hoping Huff is cleared to play. It'd be great for him to get some PT before going into Neyland Stadium and 100K+ fans. He's my favorite freshman so far.
Good write up, Rob. Very well thought out, and worded. It really touches on some points that were concerning to a lot of Duck fans. And Mr. Maloney makes a great point in his comment… The Ducks can slow down, and burn clock too. And they do it well! Can't wait for Saturday!!!

Considering I now live in the frozen north, this description of the expected use of our ample reserves really sounds like a line change in hockey. Curse you, Minnesota! I've definitely been here too long…
Way2goIdaho, Way north of Boise
Thanks, Rob. One little clarification: while I think it's true Nick Cody played last year at both guard and tackle, Darrion Weems was strictly a tackle last year as far as taking game snaps was concerned. I followed the substitutions on the left side of the OL closely - I'm Carson York's dad. When Darrion would come in, most frequently Bo Thran would move to guard and Carson would come out. Occasionally, Bo would exit and Darrion and Carson would be in. Getting Nick and Darrion plenty of PT will be a priority again this year, in case of injury and because they'll both likely be starters next year.
Way2goIdaho: Just want to say how much we appreciate your son's hard work and dedication to Oregon football. He sounds like a great guy. Just wanted to say I'm from Lewiston and it is great to see an Idaho guy out there playing hard and doing well on a national stage.
