Great location, good value for money, decent breakfast and friendly young staff. (I am a good French speaker. I don't know what their English was like.) Charming courtyard for picnicking, which must be pleasantly shady in summer. All the bedrooms have their windows on the courtyard side, riadh-style.
The bedroom walls were thin. We were there off season (early November) when there were only a few other residents and it wasn't a problem, but you could hear the TV and loud conversations in the next room.
Short walk to train station and to old city centre. Bedroom and bathroom was really clean and comfortable.
Only negative.. no screens on the windows and lots of mosquitos so it got quite hot in the room overnight because we couldn't have the windows open. Maybe even just a screen on the bathroom window would be good. :) nothing else wrong. :)
It was not spoilt by modernity. The ambiance was tranquil and relaxed. We loved the it's originality and un themed decor. The staff could not have been more helpful. We hope the new owners retain the atmosphere.
The public parking was not so hot. But parking in the town is a pain anyway.
For travellers without a car this location is good. The stroll through the backstreets has character and won't take long to get to the centre.
We chose this hotel because it said it had parking. With a loaded car this was essential to us. It's possibly our fault that we didn't make the distinction between 'public' and 'private' parking, but all it can claim to be is close to a public car park. The manager seemed nervous of the area (there is a soup kitchen directly opposite, no judgements here). Our time in Avignon was spent moving our stuff safely inside and not seeing the city. Wish we went for the nearby Ibis with secure parking on this occasion. The breakfast was over-priced (€8.50). Having a 6 month old with us, we weren't given a typical room upstairs so can't speak for them, instead we were put in a room off the ground-floor courtyard garden, with mixed blessings, it gave us good access but it was overgrown and was home to huge mosquitos.
The level of noise throughout the night.
Friendly welcoming staff, our rooms were on the ground floor luckily as one of our group would have serious difficulty getting up the stairs. Clean but very basic rooms and shower/bath, basically a good place to stay one night,breakfast outside in the courtyard was also good. Within easy walking distance of plenty of wonderful restaurants!
Lovely garden setting
No screens at window so bitten loads by midgies
Good location, lovely courtyard.
Parking not available close by, no air conditioning.
The central courtyard round which the rooms are situated. Very cool with trees and tables where breakfast is served.
The mosquitos!
Don't be put off by the building's exterior - admit I wondered what the rooms would be like when I saw the hotel for the first time, but was perfectly satisfied with the facilities and service. Quaint breakfast area outside.
Room was pleasant as were the staff. Parking was ok. Not far to main area of Avignon, about 10 mins away.
Breakfast was poor. Coffee in flasks and plasric wrapped cheese. Plastic cups not glasses for fruit juice!
great location, great price. friendly staff.
street noise, get an courtyard facing room. they charge for a lame breakfast. beds a cheap and uncomfortable.
Garden was so beautiful and unique. Lovely room and the staff was really nice. Location was good.
Breakfast could've been a bit better with some fruits and a bit broader selection of foods.
Great family room, the kids loved going upstairs to their beds. Nice buffet breakfast in the courtyard.
The room was hot (August). There were two noisy fans so it was a case of deciding which was worse, the noise or the heat. The courtyard area is a little tired but for the amount of time spent there it was fine.
Mattress was great! Position was very good
Breakfast out of a packet!
Staff were polite kind and helpful
The area and the condition of the building
I like the quadruple room my friends and I stayed in. It's clean with good view facing the long wall of Avignon, and beautiful stair up the beds I sleep.
Have some mosquitoes in the room.
Liked quiet situation close to interesting small restaurants
the much advertised garden was a disappointment - really just the large tree which was dropping leaves. it was rather dusty and unviting to sit outside and no one did.
friendly and helpful staff. good location.
no aircon, but no big issue.
The room was not very pleasant. The photos on the internet look a lot better than in realty.
The cleanliness and the quietness.
breakast a bit too expensive in my opinion but maybe it was worth the price.

H∞-controllers for linearised time-delay power systems
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 401 - 408
Cited by: Papers (7)Three H∞-control schemes are developed for the stabilisation of power-system models with state delays. Two control schemes which consist of one gain term representing pure state feedback are proposed first. Then, a controller consisting of two gain terms comprising pure plus delayed state feedback is developed. The proposed controllers guarantee the asymptotic stability of the controlled system and the H∞-norm bound of the closed-loop transfer function of the system. The associated gains are determined in each case from the solution of a linear-matrix-inequality feasibility problem. Simulation results of the proposed schemes are presented and discussed View full abstract»
Investigation of impedance based protection technique for EHV 3-terminal double circuit lines
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 317 - 321
Cited by: Papers (1)A digital impedance based protection scheme for a 3-terminal transmission line has been implemented on a digital signal processor board and tested on a physical model of a double-circuit 3-terminal line with a source at each end. One combined relay at each terminal of the double-circuit line, instead of two relays, is proposed. Each relay is fed by three voltage and six current signals. Real-time tests conducted on the physical model for various faults show that high fault resistance at the teed point, current infeed, remote-end infeeds, fault location, source impedance and far-end faults cause no problem in proper relay operation. Also, 100% of the lines are protected View full abstract»
Instantaneous phase-angle estimation algorithm under unbalanced voltage-sag conditions
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 409 - 415
Cited by: Papers (50) | Patents (1)If a negative sequence is generated by voltage sag and/or unbalance, it appears as an oscillating error in a synchronous reference frame (SRF). In power conditioning equipment, the exact value of a positive sequence is needed to achieve the unity power factor and constant output voltage, whereas the exact value of a negative sequence is needed for unbalance compensation. To measure the positive sequence separately from the negative sequence, a low pass or notch filter having a narrow bandwidth is normally used. However, such a filter causes a lot of phase delay, thus the response time of the system tends to be lengthened. A method of estimating the positive- and the negative-sequence voltages separately is presented, without a significant delay, by utilising the weighted least-squares estimation (WLSE) method with the covariance resetting technique. A frequency update law is also proposed to accommodate the frequency varying environments. The authors demonstrate through simulation and experiment the superior performance of the proposed scheme in measuring the positive- and the negative-sequence voltages at the time of abrupt transition. This method can be applied to uninterruptable power supplies (UPS), pulsewidth modulation (PWM) AC/DC converters, active filters, AC voltage compensators etc View full abstract»
New concept in AC power theory
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 417 - 424
Cited by: Papers (17)Conventional power theory is examined in the time and frequency domains, and a new definition of apparent power in single- and three-phase systems is presented. The technique is based on the instantaneous power, which satisfies the law of conservation of energy. In this technique reactive power is determined as a DC imaginary component of the instantaneous power. Apparent power is defined as the RMS or 2-Norm of instantaneous power. The technique satisfies the Plancherel's theorem both in time and frequency domain. It is shown that power factor can only be made to be unity in a three-phase balanced system if the new definition of apparent power is used View full abstract»
Initial applications of complex artificial neural networks to load-flow analysis
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 361 - 366Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been widely used in the power industry for applications such as fault classification, protection, fault diagnosis, relaying schemes, load forecasting, power generation and optimal power flow etc. At the time of writing this paper, most ANNs are built upon the environment of real numbers. However, it is well known that in computations related to electric power systems, such as load-flow analysis and fault-level estimation etc., complex numbers are extensively involved. The reactive power drawn from a substation, the impedance, busbar voltages and currents are all expressed in complex numbers. Hence, ANNs in the complex domain must be adopted for these applications, although it is possible to use ANNs in the conventional way by dividing a complex number into two real numbers, representing both the real and imaginary parts. It is shown, by illustration with a simple complex equation, that the behaviour of a real ANN simulating complex numbers is inferior to that of an ANN which is intrinsically complex by design. The structure of the complex ANN and the numerical approach in handling back propagation for online training under the complex environment are described. The application of this newly developed ANN on load flow analysis in a simple 6-busbar electric power system is used as an illustrative example to show the merits of incorporating complex ANNs in power-system analysis View full abstract»
Extending health considerations in subtransmission systems to include reliability worth
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 381 - 386
Cited by: Papers (3)The basic concepts associated with quantitative reliability assessment of electric power systems are reasonably well established, and well accepted within the power industry. The evaluation of the costs and benefits of competing investments is now becoming a standard practice in power-system planning. To justify the use of new facilities and system modification specific reference to reliability has normally been included, and one approach that has received considerable attention is the evaluation of the societal worth (benefit) of system reliability, or conversely the costs incurred by consumers due to power supply interruptions. To make a consistent appraisal of economics and reliability, it is necessary to compare investment cost needed to attain a specified level of reliability with the reliability worth or benefits derived by the society at that level of system reliability. The wellbeing framework is extended to include the societal worth of electric service reliability in subtransmission systems. System well-being is defined in terms of three system states: (i) healthy, (ii) marginal and (iii) at risk, thus combining the deterministic and probabilistic approaches into a single framework. The determination of reliability worth indices of expected energy not supplied (EENS), expected cost of interruptions (ECOST) and interrupted energy assessment rate (IEAR) are discussed, for both the healthy and at risk states in the well-being framework. The concepts associated with extending the well-being framework to include reliability worth parameters are illustrated by application to a small reliability test system View full abstract»
Analysis of voltage collapse mechanisms in state space
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 395 - 400
Cited by: Papers (1)The effects of the generator excitation current limit, the on-load tap changer (OLTC) and load dynamics on voltage stability are analysed in state space. The variation of the number and coordinates of the equilibrium points with parameters of the system are discussed. In addition, a small-disturbance voltage stability region of a simple system is constructed. When the dynamic aspect of voltage collapse is considered, it is more convenient to analyse it in the state space rather than in the input/output parameter space. The voltage stability of a system is determined by the dynamic characteristics of both the OLTC and the load. The generator excitation current limit affects the voltage stability by changing the small-disturbance voltage stability region and the equilibrium points of the system. After a small disturbance, the mode of voltage instability, fast instability or longer-term instability, depends on the composition of the load as well as the value of the system reactance View full abstract»
Distribution system planning with evolutionary programming and a reliability cost model
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 336 - 341
Cited by: Papers (3)Cost of reliability of optimal distribution system planning is considered. The reliability cost model has been derived as a linear function of line flows for evaluating the outages. The objective is to minimise the total cost including the outage cost, feeder resistive loss, and fixed investment cost. Evolutionary programming was used to solve the very complicated mixed-integer, highly nonlinear and nondifferential problem. A real distribution network was modelled as the sample system for tests. There is also a higher opportunity to obtain the global optimum during the EP process View full abstract»
Passive filter design for harmonic reactive power compensation in single-phase circuits supplying nonlinear loads
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 373 - 380
Cited by: Papers (2)The proliferation of different types of nonlinear loads into a distribution system has the potential to increase the harmonic levels in the system. The effect of attenuation on reducing the net current harmonics is reported for different nonlinear loads. Calculation of nonlinear load susceptances at different harmonic frequencies is presented. The design procedure of a reactance one-port compensator capable of reducing the voltage and current harmonics produced by nonlinear loads supplied from a source having internal inductive impedance is offered. The reactance one-port compensator application to a secondary distribution system loaded with different load types is presented. The analysis uses the Electromagnetic Transient Program (EMTP) to model different loads as well as the distribution system. Finally, physical experiments have been conducted to verify the results obtained by simulation View full abstract»
On-line dynamic security contingency screening using artificial neural networks
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 367 - 372
Cited by: Papers (4)On-line dynamic security analysis has now become realistic due to advances in computer technology and algorithms for security assessment. Details of pattern recognition based electromechanical stability screens which have been implemented within a dynamic security assessor are presented. Use of statistical functions of features is shown to overcome the dimensionality problem of applying pattern recognition techniques to large power systems. The low computational cost of this approach coupled with efficient operation has resulted in a significant step towards achieving full online dynamic security assessment View full abstract»
Robust design of multimachine power system stabilisers using tabu search algorithm
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 387 - 394
Cited by: Papers (3)Robust design of multimachine power system stabilisers (PSSs) using the tabu search (TS) optimisation technique is presented. The proposed approach employs TS for optimal parameter settings of a widely used conventional fixed-structure lead-lag PSS (CPSS). The parameters of the proposed stabilisers are selected using TS in order to shift the system poorly damped electromechanical modes at several loading conditions and system configurations simultaneously to a prescribed zone in the left hand side of the s-plane. Incorporation of TS as a derivative-free optimisation technique in PSS design significantly reduces the computational burden. In addition, the quality of the optimal solution does not rely on the initial guess. The performance of the proposed PSSs under different disturbances and loading conditions is investigated for multimachine power systems. The eigenvalue analysis and the nonlinear simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed PSSs in damping out the local, as well as the interarea, modes and enhance greatly the system stability over a wide range of loading conditions and system configurations View full abstract»
Distribution feeder reconfiguration with refined genetic algorithm
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 349 - 354
Cited by: Papers (27)A refined genetic algorithm for a distribution feeder reconfiguration to reduce losses is presented. The problem is optimised in a stochastic searching manner similar to that of the conventional GA. The initial population is determined by opening the switches with the lowest current in every mesh derived in the optimal power flow (OPF), with all switches closed. Solutions provided by OPF are generally the optimum or near-optimal solutions for most cases, so prematurity could occur. To avoid prematurity, the conventional crossover and mutation scheme was refined by a competition mechanism. So the dilemma of choosing a proper probability for crossover and mutation can be avoided. The two processes were also combined into one to save computation time. Tabu lists with heuristic rules were also employed in the searching process to enhance performance. The new approach provides an overall switching decision instead of a successive pattern, which tends to converge to a local optimum. Many tests were conducted and the results have shown that RGA has advantages over many other previously developed algorithms View full abstract»
Emission control research of spot markets for separate generation systems
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 425 - 431
Cited by: Patents (1)In a separate generation system, the ability of an optimal economic generation dispatch to satisfy emission constraints for power agencies is crucial. While attempting to minimise deadweight losses caused by emission constraints of power agencies imposed on every power agency on the emission trading market, this investigation also presents equitable criteria for the most suitable emission standard for constructing a preliminary operating model of the emission rights trading market. Owing to its ability to evaluate the quantity and price of emission trading, the operating model can serve as an index for the trading of emission rights in a separate generation system, This investigation also applies the sequential unconstrained minimisation technique (SUMT) to obtain a solution that satisfies the lowest generation cost in emission constraints. The SUMT method takes the limit of the nonlinearity equality or nonlinearity inequality, and then applies a transformation method to transfer the constraints into the unconstrained nonlinearity-programming problem. Simultaneously this method also incorporates the characteristics of the quasi-Newton method while assuming that a reliable initial value need not be assigned to determine the optimal search direction. Finally, the optimum solutions are obtained by regularly adjusting the penalty parameter. An illustrative example is presented to verify the accuracy of this technique View full abstract»
Three-dimensional thermal imaging for power equipment monitoring
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 355 - 360
Cited by: Papers (1)It is well known that most faults in a power system appear as localised hot spots in their early stage of development and gradually grow into accidents that are not remediable, such as total insulation breakdown or even explosion. Through the detection of hot spots and abnormal rise in working temperature of conductors or insulators, infrared thermography has been one of the most useful tools in identifying potential failures, so that preventive measures can be taken to avoid the occurrence of any hazard. However, this method has not attracted worldwide attention and popularity because it is extremely difficult to visually analyse thermal images of power equipment and, very often, only skillful maintenance engineers are able to make correct judgements based on these images due to a lack of three-dimensional sense. The employment of techniques in virtual reality to produce three-dimensional thermal images is described, so that users are able to manipulate the three-dimensional object on the screen under both geometrical mode and thermal mode. Hot spots can easily be identified as a means of condition-based maintenance. This system can provide vital indications of the equipment's condition, providing warnings of potential problems. This technique is totally noninvasive and it can keep the plant in service throughout the whole period of assessment. Furthermore, this system should also be useful for training maintenance engineers. The whole system (including the hardware set-up and the associated mathematics) is described View full abstract»
Accurate model for contribution of generation to transmission system effect on charges and congestion management
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 342 - 348
Cited by: Papers (7)Some closed formulas that express the contribution of each generator to the power flows, loads and losses in a power system are introduced. The derivation of the formulas is based on the sensitivity and corrective action analysis of the system. The applicability of the proposed formulas is demonstrated using various test systems and they are compared with other state-of-the-art methods. Also these formulas are tested on a practical system to relieve transmission congestion problems and calculate the use-of-transmission system charges View full abstract»
Direct method for calculation of AC side harmonics and interharmonics in an HVDC system
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 329 - 335
Cited by: Papers (11)AC side current harmonics in an HVDC system are shown to be dependent on the commutation overlap and the DC side ripple. Interharmonics exist when the AC networks operate at different frequencies. An analytical method is proposed to represent such effects in the AC side harmonic calculation. The algorithm does not require iteration between the AC and DC sides. The result obtained using the analytical method is verified using time domain simulation View full abstract»
Experimental investigation into harmonic impedance of low-voltage cables
Publication Year: 2000 , Page(s): 322 - 328
Cited by: Papers (5) | Patents (1)Harmonic characteristics of power cables used in low-voltage distribution systems of commercial buildings are investigated. Analytical discussion of cable resistance and reactance at harmonic frequencies is presented. An experimental procedure for obtaining full matrix impedance of cables at harmonic frequency is introduced. It is found that cable resistance increases with increasing harmonic order. Cable inductance, however, decreases due to the effect of flux cancellation. The analytical formulas presented yield reasonable accuracy for cable resistance for single-core cables, but provide an overestimation for multicore cables. The impact of various parameters on cable resistance and reactance, such as harmonic order, cable installation method, cable current distribution and the presence of magnetic material is also addressed, as well as the mechanisms for impedance variation. Finally, recommendations for using the approximate formulas for cables in low-voltage installations are provided View full abstract»

Unlike mutual funds, which can be purchased in fractional units, shares of stock cannot be divided. So, the smallest number of shares an investor can buy is one share. There is a catch that could determine for investors just how many shares they will want to purchase - commission fees.
When people purchase stock, they must pay a commission fee to their stock broker who is transacting the security. Commission fees are usually charged on a per transaction basis up to a specified number of shares that are purchased/sold and are typically under $40 per trade. Most people prefer to reduce the average commission costs by spreading them over the purchase of many shares.
For instance, if a brokerage firm charges $20 per trade (i.e. for stocks under $20 and up to 100 shares) and an investor purchases one share (called an odd lot) of ABC for $10 per share, then the total cost would be $30 per share - the cost of the commission plus the cost of the one ABC share. If instead the investor decides to buy 100 ABC shares (a round lot) for the $10 share, then the average cost would be reduced to $10.20 [($1,000 + 20)/100]. Thus, by increasing the number of shares purchased, the average cost (including commission) per share would be reduced and the investor who purchased 100 shares would only have to wait until ABC stock price rose $0.20 to $10.20 to break even. As for the investor who purchased just one ABC share, he would have to wait until the stock price soared 200% to $30/share before breaking even.
Another catch with buying one share is selling it. If the investor who purchased one share of ABC wants to sell, he would pay $20 to sell the $10 share of stock. Thus, the total cost per share to buy and sell one share of ABC would be $40 ($20 + $20) - a 400% loss on a $10 stock. In addition, since one share is considered an odd lot, the stock would be less liquid since it would be difficult to sell just one stock to another investor. Generally, stock brokers prefer buying and selling shares in even lots. This problem usually won't arise if you are buying shares in companies that trade large volumes every day, but if you decide to purchase stock in a company with a low average trading volume, you may have a long wait until somebody is willing to buy the odd lot from you - or you will have to sell it for a lower price.
Bottom line: the smallest number of shares you can buy is one share. However, due to commission costs and liquidity issues, it is typically not feasible to do so.

Voices: Keselowski fined for tweet
Updated: November 13, 2012, 6:58 PM ET
Using your phone while driving can be expensive. Sprint Cup points leader Brad Keselowski found that out the hard way, when he was fined $25,000 for sending a tweet during a red flag stop at Sunday's Sprint Cup race in Phoenix. Keselowski became a social media sensation for his on-track tweets during the long delay at this year's Daytona 500, but NASCAR officials said after that race that electronic devices such as cell phones would not be allowed in cars. However, some fans think ...

text: Meeting Place 2008-02-20 by Stephen Schuette Thanks to Cindy for the amplification that makes clearer the contrasts with Nicodemus. It does seem those details could hardly be arbitrary – not only the times of day, but the contrasting ways in which Nicodemus and the woman respond to Jesus. Isn't it typical that there is more work to do with "insiders" than "outsiders" …what with all the baggage of assumptions that the (or we) insiders bring? (Thanks, too, for the wonderfully humorous comment regarding boundaries!!) A colleague pointed out to me the place might be significant too. There's the obvious but not-to-be-overlooked fact that Jesus speaks with a woman who is both woman and Samaritan. But my friend suggests that the well is the place where people of different backgrounds gather. All people go for water – no matter their ethnicity, politics, faith, gender, orientation, martial status, age… I know I tend to think of people in these ancient contexts as much more homogeneous than they were. Maybe it's that the leap back from our context to theirs seems greater than any difference among them, right? Wrong! Maybe the modern parallel is the quick stop. Another interesting conversation point is the difference in anxiety levels. Maybe it's why the woman is never named. An unnamed Samaritan woman who has had five husbands may have little to lose. A named teacher in Israel has a lot to lose. Her world is "opened" with Good News. I get the sense that Nicodemus was as shaken when he left as when he arrived. Of course, the woman was shaken too, but in another way. It makes me want to know more about both of them…. "the rest of the story…" Or maybe, in a way, we're writing the rest of the story…we who come from our different places, with our different assumptions, with our perspectives on how we measure "gain" and "loss" – all of us who have had an encounter with Jesus and can't quite shake it.

Went looking at pocket .380's today and found what I believe is a big issue with the LCP magazine.Every time I tried to place the magazine in the gun about halfway in it would catch on the mag release.If you pushed again after the initial catch or if you pressed the mag release in as you were sliding the magazine in it would seat. It seemed that under pressure trying to put a magazine in would be very difficult if not impossible without extensive practice.
My question is is this normal for the LCP and if so does it break in after a while so it does not do this.I like the LCP but this might be a deal breaker for me.

Proceed carefully in Syracuse situation
In a tidy, upscale village 10 miles east of Syracuse University, a dozen or so vans, cars and satellite trucks were parked outside Syracuse assistant basketball coach Bernie Fine's house on Friday. The sun was now setting, cameramen waiting in the chill since morning, on the street between Fine's house and the sprawling house of head coach Jim Boeheim just across the way.
Those cameramen were waiting for the answer on all of our minds: Was it true? Did Fine, who has been an assistant under Boeheim for 35 years, really molest two of the team's ball boys starting in the 1970s and ending in the 1990s, as a Thursday report on ESPN alleged? Will another legendary coach at a big-time college program be brought down by allegations of sexual abuse, as we sit barely a week removed from the stomach-turning charges against Jerry Sandusky bringing down Joe Paterno at Penn State?
Is the nightmare happening all over again?
Inside Fine's house, the lights were off. A sign next to the front door read, "Welcome all who enter here." A woman drove up and scurried inside, but only a yapping white dog answered the door. A lonely basketball hoop stood in the driveway. The family seemed ready for the holidays: a dozen pumpkins decorating the front yard, a Christmas wreath hanging above the porch. Earlier in the day, Boeheim had come by and told the congregated media, "Don't waste your time. He's not here."
No, there would be no definite answers, not today, not any time soon, in the case against Fine.
Right now, only one thing is clear: Syracuse is not Penn State.
Sure, given the two weeks of disgust that's seeped out of Penn State in the wake of the Sandusky scandal, it's natural to equate the two. Sexual abuse allegations that span more than a decade? Leveled against an assistant coach at a national championship-winning college sports program? At a university where the head coach is an icon?
It's a gut reaction.
And it may be the wrong reaction.
With the Sandusky case, we had an 18-month investigation that ended in a grand jury indictment. We had a 23-page grand jury report that provided vivid, corroborative details for various sexual abuse allegations by Sandusky against eight alleged victims. We had a case cut-and-dry enough to end the Penn State tenure of the longtime football head coach Paterno and university president Graham Spanier.
This is not what we have at Syracuse. What we have here is a whole lot of grays, a murky stew of facts and falsehoods that we're only beginning to digest. In the end, it will either be another horrific instance of a college coach taking sexual advantage of star-struck young boys, or two men committing a vengeful, lie-filled character assassination on the currently longest-serving assistant coach in NCAA basketball.
Either outcome will sicken us.
But unlike the Sandusky case, this is not the end of a long, thorough investigative process. And what we need to do — difficult as it may sound — is take a deep breath, avoid jumping to conclusions, and wait for the police investigation, still in its earliest stages, to be completed.
Here are the allegations: A 39-year-old local man, Bobby Davis, told ESPN's "Outside the Lines" that Fine began molesting him in seventh grade when Davis was a ball boy for the Syracuse Orange, and continued until Davis was 26. Davis' stepbrother, Mike Lang, also told ESPN that he'd been a victim of sexual abuse at the hands of Fine on more than a dozen occasions. Davis said he went to the local police in 2003, but they told him the statute of limitations had passed.
But remember: The local paper as well as ESPN had investigated Davis' claims nearly a decade ago. Neither published a thing because no corroboration could be found. The university conducted a four-month investigation of its own after hearing the allegations in 2005, but nobody interviewed in the investigation supported Davis' claims. And, as callers on Syracuse talk radio pointed out again and again on Friday, Davis' story seemed flimsy and seemed to change, his demeanor in the ESPN interview seemed shifty and his timing seemed suspicious. In Boeheim's words: "I believe they saw what happened at Penn State and they are using ESPN to get money."
It's all part of this brave new world of instant media. More facts or half-facts or falsehoods keep coming at us. We digest every piece of information as it comes, not knowing which is true but drawing conclusions nevertheless.
"These are the conversations that used to just happen in newsrooms," said Steve Davis, chair of the newspaper and online journalism program at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University. "We'd sit around and talk about what we think happened, and then every 24 hours we'd write a story or do a news report. Now what we experience is the real-time version of that. . . . This is an occasion that calls not for speed but actually for deliberateness. That deliberative part of our business, it's hard to account for that anymore."
Whether he's guilty as hell or an innocent bystander in a whirlwind of lies, Bernie Fine is being tried in the court of public opinion. If he's guilty, he's deserving of every ounce of vitriol being directed toward him. If he's innocent — and really, truly, right now we have no way of knowing one way or the other — he'll still be stained for life by these accusations.
Though he wasn't about to throw himself into the gaggle of media outside his house Friday, Fine — who has been placed on administrative leave during the police investigation — did release a strongly worded statement on Friday.
"Sadly, we live in an allegation-based society and an Internet age where in a matter of minutes one's lifelong reputation can be severely damaged," Fine said in the statement released through an attorney. "I am confident that, as in the past, a review of these allegations will be discredited and restore my reputation. I hope the latest review of these allegations will be conducted expeditiously."
"Finally, I appreciate [chancellor Nancy Cantor's] statement that I should be accorded a fair opportunity to defend myself against these accusations. I fully intend to do so. There should never be a rush to judgment when someone's personal integrity and career are on the line."
In the studio of a Syracuse sports radio station, Brent Axe, a Syracuse lifer who hosts an afternoon sports talk show, took a sip of his soda and urged the emotional Orange of central New York to proceed with caution. Usually, his show is "the sandbox," the place where people can argue about things that really don't matter, like whether Tim Tebow's win against the Jets means he's really an NFL quarterback.
But on Friday, all four hours of his show were consumed by the sexual-abuse allegations. Friends of Fine called in to support the assistant coach, and so did parents whose children had gone to his basketball camps. A retired teacher called in, saying that even if Fine didn't commit these crimes, he should have known better than putting himself in situations alone with a child.
Axe took on an interesting tone for a sports radio show, one that national radio hosts like Jim Rome and Scott Van Pelt had as well when discussing the Bernie Fine case: A tone of holding back, of reserving judgment before we know all the facts. Axe said Syracuse faithful have taken a lesson from the Penn State fiasco, trying to ensure emotion doesn't override rationality.
We want "to get to the truth, to get to the right answer, to get to the point where we know how to feel about this," Axe told his listeners. "Because right now we don't. You want to pick a side, you want to say they're right and they're wrong, but you really don't know at this point. And that's frustrating, because we want answers. We want to know what's going on. But . . . there are going to be some answers we don't get for a very long time."
One person who didn't hold back on his emotions was Boeheim.
"It is a bunch of a thousand lies that he has told," Boeheim said to ESPN. "You don't think it is a little funny that his [stepbrother] is coming forward? There is only one side to this story. He is lying."
Boeheim's response was strong. The coach came out guns blazing, his loyalty firmly on the side of Fine, his longtime assistant and neighbor.
Of course, what do we really know about other people, no matter how close we are to them? When Boeheim says there's "absolutely no way" the abuse could have happened, how can he really know? Isn't the first reaction of the next-door neighbors of a crazed murderer always that they were shocked such a nice young man could do such a horrible thing?
In throwing his full-throated support behind Fine, Boeheim either showed the ultimate loyalty during the most difficult time in his assistant coach's life — or he put his own job on the line if these allegations turn out to be true.
These are our natural, human, emotional reactions, when such horrific allegations strike close to home — in Boeheim's case, right across the street.
In the coaches' neighborhood, the sun had set. A woman answered the door of her house not far from Fine's. Several young children ran around the house, clutching at their mother's leg then scooting away. The woman didn't want to give her name — people know her family in town, she said — but she said she felt emotionally involved in the case. She knows Fine. She doesn't think he committed these crimes. She sure hopes he didn't.
"I was immediately questioning the person that brought forth the allegations, because it had already been investigated," she said. "The timing of it all seems like it was trying to piggyback what's going on at Penn State. That's what it seems like to me. There's a lot of witch-hunting going on, it seems like, in today's society."
Between all these gray lines — did he, or didn't he? — there is only one truth: Right now, we just don't know. We may never know. Try as we may to take our emotions out of play, we can't, especially with such serious, disgusting allegations. We can only hope that time and deliberation will bring out the truth. That was the last thing this woman, Fine's neighbor, said: "I just hope everything is done in an unbiased and thorough manner."
She closed the door. It was nearly dark, but a yellow sign in the woman's front yard was still visible: "SLOW. Children at play."

SportLorenzo shatters record at MotoGP qualifying Jorge Lorenzo takes another step towards the Championship after finishing on pole in qualifying at Czech Moto GP. 25 Aug 2012 14:54 GMT | Sport, Spain, United Kingdom Championship leader Jorge Lorenzo secures his fourth pole of season in Czech qualifying [EPA] Jorge Lorenzo blazed his way to pole position in Sunday's Czech Grand Prix, twice setting the lap record in Brno on Saturday as he looks to extends his championship lead.The Spaniard raced the 5.4 km course in 1:55.799 on his Yamaha, scorching Valentino Rossi's previous lap record of1:56.145 from 2009. Earlier in qualifying, he had nipped Rossi's best by one-thousandth of a second.Britain's Cal Crutchlow will start second in Sunday's race after the Yamaha rider also bettered the 2009 mark with a1:55.995 lap. Spain's Dani Pedrosa, second in the overall standings and 18 points behind Lorenzo, will round out the front row on his Honda.The day, though, belonged to Lorenzo, last season's runner up and the 2010 world champion. He will go for his sixth first-place finish and 11th podium spot of the season on Sunday."(The bike had) very good pace and I think we are ready for tomorrow," Lorenzo told reporters. Pedrosa, coming off his second victory of the season in Indianapolis last weekend, had looked a strong favourite for pole after setting the pace in final practice.Rossi, a nine-times world champion across the classes but enduring another tough season for Ducati, was nearly a second off the pace.He finished sixth quickest behind American Ben Spies and Italian Andrea Dovizioso - his replacement at Ducati next season when the Italian great returns to Yamaha.Honda's Casey Stoner, the 2011 champion who is third in the this season's standings, was ruled out this weekend because he needs surgery on his damaged left ankle. Ducati's Nicky Hayden will also miss Sunday's race after suffering a hand injury during qualifying last weekend.Source: Reuters

Amy gets a scary trailer I'm really looking forward to Amy, the downloadable horror game coming to PS3, PC and Xbox 360. It's about a little girl in a city full of messed up mutant men, and it looks like it has the potential to scare the crap out of you. The visual design has really pulled me in here, and I'm very eager to see some actual gameplay. I have a feeling this could be a great little hit if done right. One can hope. Comments not appearing?

New Senior
Blount/Barker Appoints New Senior V.P.
Blount/Barker ShipBuilding, Warren, R.I. has elected Jacob A. Stevens III as its new senior vice president. A well-known shipbuilder, whose career highlights include the construction of six 92 ft. (28 m), 4,000 hp Marci-Class Z drive tug boats in under 20 months for Moran Towing, Stevens will be responsible for all shipyard operations including engineering, design, labor, purchasing, scheduling and working with outside contractors.

Hi, I'm TJ! | NMY Grad | Mama to DD 5/13

I've heard that there is a flavorless Vit D supplement - not sure about multi or with iron. I do know that the Enfamil tri-vi-sol tastes horrendous. My 12 week old gagged, heaved and vomited. I tried it and darn near did the same.
Wife to the sweetest man in the world and Mama to 2 precious boys (7 and 9), and one little miracle girl (born June '13)
I recommend "Just D" by sunlight vitamins or Carlsen's baby D drops. Neither have additives ,sweeteners or coloring.
I gave my children vitamin and mineral supplements when they were younger and did a lot of research beforehand. Luckily I knew one of the UK's top nutritionists (Karen Devine) who guided me to formulations that had no additives and that contained minerals/vitamins formulated to be as absorbable as possible. Many vitamin/mineral companies will put in, say, iron into their formulation and it is indeed iron, but in fact not in a formulation we can absorb, hence the joke about magnetic cornflakes (do you remember the video where they dissolved cornflakes and extracted the iron and it was actually metallic iron!!! which of course we cannot absorb).
Did you know that the vast majority of mineral supplements are made from ground up seabed? The manufacturers are entirely within the law to do this as their labels are truthful - so the supplements do indeed contain calcium, magnesium, etc, but NOT in a form we can absorb (since we're not designed to eat rock!!!)
I discovered that it's possible to buy organic minerals - made from prehistoric condensed organic material - then the earth's crust contained 84 different minerals and so these minerals are very high quality and pretty much 100% absorbable.
So back to mineral/vitamin drops - my recommendation is BioCare since they seem to have done the most research. I used their probiotics, mineral drops, vitamin drops and several other supplements. They're not cheap but then good quality nutrients are (now you know that there is a vast difference between the cheap supplements you see on the shelves in Boots and the supplements you can buy in specialist outlets such as the Nutricentre (who do also sell cheap stuff, so be careful).
The other company I recommend for minerals is Archturus Healthlink in Scotland. This company was created by Cherie (who trained Karen!) and I have used pretty much all of their supplements - they are very powerful.
I personally don't think there is an advantage of buying minerals/vitamins in solution and often the choice and quality of powdered minerals is better. I used to mix them into the top of their porridge or yoghurt (so they'd eat the minerals first without noticing) as when you mix into milk it tends to accumulate at the bottom in a lump.
I hope this helps! Sarah x

Mexican RedbudCercis mexicanaRedbud - genus Latin Cercis About 11 species around Earth Cercis belongs to the pea family Height: 10 to 28 feet Spread: 10 to 28 feet Crown shape: round, oval |
Driving in early Spring through southern warm-temperate counties, Redbud cannot be overlooked. Their pink-red flowers on branches without leaves are showy and can be seen from far away. Redbuds grow as deciduous trees sometimes multi-branched shrubs. Later in the year their round heart-shaped leaves make them special. Varieties of Redbuds found in the US are: Cercis canadensis - Eastern Redbud Cercis mexicana - Mexican Redbud - some botanist think it is a variety of C. canadensis Cercis occidentalis - California Western Redbud Cercis reniformis - Oklahoma Redbud - some botanists think it is a variety of C. canadensis Cercis texensis - Texas Redbud - some botanist think it is a variety of C. canadensis Mexican Redbuds have a high drought tolerance and grow well in full sun. When the soil is light and rich, most plants including the Redbud grow very well, but Redbuds grow on a variety of soil including sandy or alkaline, often on limestones soils. When their is a drought and hot temperatures, you can help all Cercis species with some additional water. Cercis is often used by Lepidoptera larvaes. Redbud beans provide food for several bird species. Want to know more about Mexican Oak? Article Bill Ward about Mexican oak It is important to protect Nature!
