Spacious, quiet room. Easy walk to train station, market and museums. Lots of restaurants nearby.
Our room was non-smoking but cigarette odor from the nearby staff room was overpowering in our room. Its up 4 lights of stairs/no elevator.
-Location -Breakfast (very good and included in price) -Price (good value for location, despite negatives) -Service level (owner carried heavy luggage up the stairs for us)
-No elevator (didn't know that going in... and located on 4th floor) -Dated -View of landmarks was more obstructed than expected -Hard to find (directions didn't specify black/red street numbers)
Located very close to train station. However it doesn't state that it's on the third floor of so building with no lift, so you have to lift your luggage up all flights of stairs. The signage isn't very good as its capital one building with six hotels occupying different floors, so we had a hard time finding it. Breakfast was good and the rooms were huge with a good shower and air condition.
No lift/ proper signage required
Pleasant decor. Excellent breakfast. Managed by agreeable helpful family.
The people who own the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely and the hotel is in a perfect location for all of the main tourist attractions and also the train station.
No negative comments. I was very happy with my stay at this hotel
5 minute walk from S M Novella station, but far enough to ensure a peaceful stay. The hotel is on the 3rd floor without lift, but staff were very helpful with carrying our luggage. Room was spacious, beds comfortable, good shower. Breakfast consisted of cereal, cake or a selection of pastries, tea, coffee and juice. Good wi-fi connection.

The hotel located at the fourth floor of the apartments ( incl nearly 10 room) the apartment consist of two or three other one or two star small hotels, but there isn't any elevator, it is very difficult to carry bay strollers and luggage. Very small bathtub,
Especially liked the owner and the way he took care of the guests.
Quite a few stairs to climb.
The wi-fi was pretty good.
They don't tell you that this hotel is on the fourth floor, and the DON'T have an elevator! I couldn't do the stairs, and we had to move to another hotel.
Loved the atmosphere, loved the individuality of the hotel, it was not just your usual standard hotel room. It couldn't be bettered for location,shops, restaurants bars all on the door step. Owners very friendly and helpful. Would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone!
The family runs the hotel was very nice. The room was spacious, comfortable and the breakfast was great with fresh fruits and delicious croissants. The location is close to major attractions (cathedral within 10 min) and train station within 5 min. There are many restaurants and cafes across the street from the hotel, safe place and off the crowd.
It's on the 3rd floor so 4th level of the building without left but stairs. I wish you they get a left to serve this hotel and the other hotels in the same building!
Good location in relTion to the train station (5minute walk) Staff was very nice and helpful, though their English was not great Room was comfortable Breakfast was nice with fresh fruit, breads, and pastries. Wifi was free and had a good signal.
There is no lift, and the hotel is up three large flights of stairs(though the owner did carry one of our lRge bags upstairs). There was construction next to the building.
The family that runs this little hotel is wonderful! Always willing to help, friendly and great ambassadors for Florence. The location was very close to the mid-city sites -- it was a short trek to sites south of the Arno, but not undoable. The breakfast was very good and the breakfast room was bright and cheerful...a really positive way to start your day. As other reviewers have said...the coffee was amazing!
The three flight trek up the stairs was not something I looked forward to but I knew to expect it. I wished for a lift at the end of some days. I could tell that the family was trying to address the smoking issue mentioned in other reviews (with odor eliminators etc.) It was not very effective in the hallway but once in your room it was not an issue and not at all evident in the breakfast area. This also floor serves as the family's home, so eliminating smoking entirely is not really an option. If you can't be flexible on this issue, this place may not be for you but you will miss out on all the lovely things about this hotel.
The staff were very nice.
You have to ring the bell and have someone answer the door every time you want to come back into the hotel. This detoured us from staying out to late because we didn't want to have to wake someone. They were very nice and it didn't seem to be a bother to them but it was uncomfortable for us. Because of this we would not stay here again.
The location.
The building main entrance was spooky, like a homeless shelter. No elevator. We had to carry our luggage up to 3rd floor!
A lovely family run hotel very close to the railway station and or bus to the airport. True Italian feel, rooms brilliant and spotless. A wonderful stay. Service excellent
Had not realised 3 floors up. No problem to our party , and it did not spoil our stay.
Close to trains and buses. Walking distance to attractions. Friendly staff. Good security as always had to ring doorbell for access to the property.
Climbing 88 steps while carrying a suitcase. Also climbing them again after a busy day sightseeing. No fridge in room. Also no safe in room.
Very inexpensive place in a great location in Florence. Nice building, safe area, friendly staff.
breakfast - good coffee, but the very old pastry and nothing else
Good internet conexion, good breakfast

Spivey expected to fill void for injured Vidro
WASHINGTON -- Making clear they won't stand pat, the NL East-leading Washington Nationals acquired second baseman Junior Spivey from the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for pitcher Tomo Ohka on Friday, and claimed right-hander Ryan Drese off waivers.
ESPN.com fantasy spin: Most fantasy owners expected Junior Spivey would be among the names moved at the trade deadline, but the Brewers moved quickly Friday, trading the second baseman to the Nationals in exchange for right-hander Tomo Ohka. Spivey's departure from Milwaukee now begs this question: Is the Rickie Weeks Era officially under way? Weeks, the second player taken overall in the 2003 amateur draft, is batting .320, with nine triples, 12 home runs, 48 RBI (interesting stat: He's been hit by a pitch 14 times) and a 1.090 OPS in 55 games for Triple-A Nashville, far improved from the .259-8-42-.773 he had in Double A a year ago. He's a top prospect who could quickly become a top fantasy second baseman, and players with this kind of upside are always worth taking. Weeks should be promoted to take over the everyday job in the near future, making him worth the immediate addition. Even if he needs time to adapt to the major-league level, keep in mind the lack of depth at second base. Spivey is a curious addition for the Nationals, who should get Jose Vidro back from an ankle injury around the All-Star break. Spivey's value doesn't change much -- he's an adequate NL-only second baseman or mixed league middle infielder -- but it's likely he'll become a part-timer once Vidro returns, unless he's moved again by July 31. Ohka gets a fresh start in a new organization after a run-in with Nationals manager Frank Robinson, and he'll step right in for Wes Obermueller as the Brewers' fifth starter. Ohka's not a bad NL-only starter -- he has a 3.33 ERA and .224 batting average allowed in 10 games (nine starts) -- but the fact that he has 27 walks and 17 strikeouts demonstrates that he's hittable and best used when facing favorable matchups. Miller Park is actually a bit more hitter-friendly than RFK Stadium, so expect a slight decrease in overall value. In Washington, Ryan Drese, who was just claimed off waivers, steps into Ohka's vacated rotation spot. Drese was hit hard in Texas after a solid 2004 season, but his 4.13 ERA, 1.313 WHIP and .270 batting average allowed in eight career interleague starts is an encouraging sign. Like Ohka, Drese could be a useful NL-only matchups option. |
The trade for Spivey, a 2002 NL All-Star who fills a hole left by Jose Vidro's injury, hinged on the Nationals being able to replace Ohka. Drese was designated for assignment Wednesday by the Texas Rangers.
"Our feeling is that Drese could do what Ohka was doing, and we can solve our infield situation," Nationals general manager Jim Bowden said. "Every game's important. This is a race where we all see how close it is, and this makes us a better team today. It allows people to be in their right positions on the team."
Spivey took the train to Washington from Philadelphia, where the Brewers are playing, but he did not make it to RFK Stadium before the start of the Nationals' game against Seattle.
Washington entered Friday on a seven-game winning streak and 1½ games ahead of Philadelphia in the tight NL East.
On a busy day, the Nationals also picked up right-handed reliever Jacobo Seuqea off waivers from the Orioles and optioned him to Double-A Harrisburg, while outfielder Jeffrey Hammonds announced his retirement after 13 major league seasons.
Drese is expected to join Washington on Saturday, when another roster move will be made -- probably sending career minor leaguer Rick Short back to Triple-A New Orleans.
Spivey is batting .236 this season. He has a .272 career average with 46 homers and 194 RBI in 429 games with Milwaukee and Arizona, but he's hit .308 against left-handers.
Vidro is expected out until the All-Star break with a partially torn tendon in his left ankle, and his backup, Jamey Carroll, missed the last two games with a sprained ankle.
Ohka, who asked for a trade last month, went 4-3 with a 3.33 ERA this season. He was fined after turning his back to Frank Robinson when the Nationals' manager went to the mound to pull Ohka in the fourth inning of his last start Saturday.
Ohka was slated to start Friday, and Sun-woo Kim was picked to fill in against Seattle. Kim and Drese will get a shot at the fifth slot in the rotation, Robinson said.
Drese, 29, was the Rangers' Opening Day starter this season, but he went 4-6 with a 6.46 ERA. Last season, he went 14-10 with a 4.20 ERA.
Drese and teammate Rod Barajas scuffled in the dugout during a game May 24. Bowden said the Nationals looked into that and were assured that Drese is "a good team guy."
"His velocity and stuff is very close, but he's getting hit hard because he's not hitting his spots," Bowden said. "We don't get Ryan Drese if he's not struggling."
Brewers manager Ned Yost said Ohka will start at Tampa Bay on Tuesday.
"Ohka will be a great addition to our pitching staff," Brewers general manager Doug Melvin said in Philadelphia. "We expect him to give us a proven starting pitcher to add to our rotation."
Ohka said he wished he had gotten a chance to pitch more innings, and he didn't like that he spent time in the bullpen.
"I didn't want to waste my time," Ohka said through a translator, Nationals strength coach Kazuhiko Tomooka.
Ohka is earning $2.75 million this season, Spivey $2,125,000, and Drese $400,000. Drese is under contract for $1.75 million in 2006, and there's a club option for $3 million in 2007.
"It wasn't about dollars," Bowden said, "but it does save us money on the bottom line."

Americans stretch lead in PGA Cup
HEXHAM, England (AP)
Rod Perry and Jeff Sorenson contributed birdies on their last four holes Saturday and the Americans took a 10 1/2-5 1/2 lead over Great Britain & Ireland in the PGA Cup.
These golfers weren't smoking anything when they picked out their outfits. But you might think otherwise when you see what they wore.Perry, who won the PGA Professional National Championship this year, nearly holed out for eagle from a bunker on the 13th hole and chipped in for birdie on the 15th. Sorenson made seven birdies in their 3-and-2 fourballs win over Nick Brennan and Gareth Wright.
The teams split the morning foursome matches at Slaley Hall. Greig Hutcheon and Scott Henderson of GB&I had an 8-up lead at the turn before winning, 6 and 5. The Americans halved the next fourballs match and won the other two.
The PGA Cup, for club professionals, ends Sunday with 10 singles matches.

Abortion and Vote Choice Among the White Working Class
Few voters report that the issue of abortion is central to their voting decision, yet abortion has had a significant impact in shaping views of and attachments toward the political parties. (Note: this links to a gated article.) Attitudes about abortion are also highly predictive of presidential vote choice, particularly among white Americans. In recent elections, white Americans who say abortion should be legal in all or most cases have strongly supported Democratic candidates, while those who say it should be illegal tend to have equally strong preferences for the GOP. However, despite the common refrain that white working-class voters are heavily influenced by cultural "wedge" issues like abortion, white college-educated Americans' vote choice is actually more affected by their stance on this issue.
Given the increasingly polarized positions the parties have adopted on this issue and the symbolic importance that abortion has taken in our politics, the voting gap among white Americans overall is not surprising. (Note: this links to a gated article.) But appeals to white working-class voters on abortion may be less effective than similar appeals to white college-educated Americans. In the 2012 Race, Class, and Culture Survey, we found that presidential vote choice of white working-class voters was less influenced by abortion than white college-educated voters.
Among white working-class voters, 66% of those who believe abortion should be illegal supported Romney, compared to 32% of those who believe abortion should be legal. Among white college-educated Americans, 74% of those who believe abortion should be illegal supported Romney, compared to 25% of those who believe abortion should be legal. In other words, the abortion vote gap—the difference in voting preference between those who believe abortion should be illegal and legal—was less pronounced among white working-class voters (a 34-point gap) than among white college-educated voters (a 49-point gap). A similar pattern exists among those who believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases. Fully 6-in-10 (60%) white college educated voters who say abortion should be legal in all or most cases support Obama, compared to less than half (48%) of white-working class voters who support legal abortion.
What's more, these voting gaps do not appear to be an artifact of other cultural or demographic differences between these two groups. When holding constant basic demographic, cultural, and political characteristics, views on abortion more strongly predict vote choice among white college-educated voters than among white working-class voters. White college-educated voters who say abortion should be illegal are roughly four times more likely to support Romney than those who say abortion should be legal. Among the white-working class the abortion gap is still significant, but smaller. White working-class voters who say abortion should be illegal are roughly three times more likely to support Romney than those who believe it should be legal.
Stereotypes survive because they fit existing narratives, because they are politically useful, and because there is insufficient evidence to contradict them. In our recent report we challenge much of the conventional wisdom about the white working class. The low salience of abortion to white working-class and its more modest impact on vote choice relative to white college-educated Americans should provide evidence to move beyond some of the stereotypes.

A miniature, conventions-based IOC implementation for nodejs.
A miniature, conventions-based IoC implementation for nodejs.
After using angularjs for a while I became envious of its IoC facility and decided to create something for nodejs that delivered similar convenience on the server side.
is an IoC container.
At its core, minioc
is just a mapping between keys and values. It might be convenient to think of it as a hashtable, except that it behaves differently depending on how an item was put into it.
It understands 3 kinds of things:
- values - seems self explanitory
- factories - functions that produce values
- constructors - classes constructed on demand (depending on strategy)
When register
ing items with the container, the caller has the option of indicating how the container should resolve the item. The defaults are:
- values - always resolved as given
- factories - produce a value for each call
- constructors - construct a new instance for each call
var minioc = require'minioc'; // a value... miniocregister'item_1'asvalue"I'm a value"; // a factory... miniocregister'item_2'asfactory return "I'm produced by a factory";; // a constructor (class)... return "I'm an instance created by constructor"; miniocregister'item_3'asctorItem_3; // Print them all to the console... console.logminiocget'item_1'toString;console.logminiocget'item_2'toString;console.logminiocget'item_3'toString;
Factories and Constructors as Values
Factories and constructors can be altered at the time of registration so that the result becomes the registered value rather than the target. This changes the defaults to:
- factories - invoked once with the result captured to fulfill all requests
- constructor - one instance created and captured to filfill all requests
var minioc = require'..'; var factory_seed = 0 ctor_seed = 0; var return "I'm produced by a factory with id: "concatfactory_seed++;; // a factory as a value... miniocregister'factory'fromfactoryfactory; // a constructor (class) as a value... thisid = ctor_seed++; return "I'm an instance created by constructor with id: " concatthisid; ; miniocregister'ctor'fromctorCtorExample; // write them to the console... console.logminiocget'factory'toString;console.logminiocget'ctor'toString; // notice the values don't change... console.logminiocget'factory'toString;console.logminiocget'ctor'toString;
Singleton = Immutable Registrations
Throughout a container's lifespan, items may be registered, unregistered, and modified. The exception is a singleton registration that already has a value.
// a singleton value... miniocregister'name'assingletonvalue"value"; // a singleton factory... miniocregister'name'assingletonfactory return "value"; ; // a singleton value factory... miniocregister'name'assingletonfromfactory return "value"; ; // a singleton constructor miniocregister'name'assingletonctorMyClass; // a singleton value constructor... miniocregister'name'assingletonfromctorMyClass;
If a registration indicates it is for a singleton, the item may not be unregistered.
performs dependency injection on both factories and constructors. Its convention is to inject any argument whose name begins with a dollar sign ($); other named arguments must be caller-supplied.
The container distinguishes between items that it can fulfill entirely from those that are registered but not fully resolvable.
var minioc = require'..' expect = require'expect.js'; thishas = typeof $data !== ''; thisdata = $data; miniocregister'My'asctorMy; // minioc has the registration... expectminiochas'My'tobetrue; // ... but it can't fulfill the dependencies... expectminioccan'My'tobefalse; var one = miniocget'My'; expectonetohaveproperty'has';expectonehastobefalse; expectonetohaveproperty'data';expectonedatatobean''; var data = something: "of interest" other: "data"; // The dependency must be user-supplied... var two = miniocget'My' data: data ; expecttwotohaveproperty'has';expecttwohastobetrue; expecttwotohaveproperty'data';expecttwodatatoeqldata; // Until the dependency can be met... miniocregister'data'asvaluedata; var three = miniocget'My'; expectthreetohaveproperty'has';expectthreehastobetrue; expectthreetohaveproperty'data';expectthreedatatoeqldata;
There are several ways to instruct the container about dependencies:
- supply them during registration
- register them with the container (by convention)
- supply your own at the time of resolution.
$ npm install minioc
var minioc = require'minioc' expect = require'expect.js'; // There is always a root container... var root = miniocroot;expectroottobeok; // When you've got a container, it has no registrations // except itself (container) and the root (root)... expectminiocget'container'toberoot;expectminiocget'root'toberoot; // You can register values... miniocregister'four'asvalue4;expectminiocget'four'tobe4; var foo = what: 'foo' ;miniocregister'foo'asvaluefoo;expectminiocget'foo'tobefoo; // You can register factories, each #get will invoke // the factory and return the result... var // within factories, `this` is bound to the container... return thisget'foo';; miniocregister'factory'asfactoryfactory;expectminiocget'factory'tobefoo; // You can register factories that take arguments you // expect to be injected, I adopted the convention // used by angularjs: arguments beginning with `$` // will be fulfilled by the container... var return $foo; miniocregister'accessor'asfactoryaccessor;expectminiocget'accessor'tobefoo; // You may also supply your own arguments in place of those // that would have been injected... var bar = what: 'bar' ;var it = miniocget'accessor' foo: bar ;expectittobebar; // You can register classes; each #get will invoke the // constructor and return the result... thisname = name || 'unknown'; thisage = typeof age !== '' ? age : 'nunya'; miniocregister'Person'asctorPerson; var first = miniocget'Person';expectfirsttobeaPerson; var second = miniocget'Person';expectsecondtobeaPerson; expectsecondtonotbefirst; // You can initialize arguments to constructors by name... var info = name: 'Phillip' age: 'old enough to know better' ;var me = miniocget'Person' info; expectmenametobeinfoname;expectmeagetobeinfoage;
Tests use mocha and expect.js, so if you clone the github repository you'll need to run:
npm install
... followed by ...
npm test
... or ...
mocha -R spec
When you import the minioc
module, the resulting object is a constructor for the Container class, but it also provides several convenience methods that can be used directly.
- property- determines whether an item can be resolved with all dependencies.create
- function - creates a new nested container.get
- function - gets an item according to its registration with the root container.has
- function - determines if an item has a registration with the root container.register
- function - registers a named item with the root container.fulfill
- function - registers a callback function with the root container to be invoked when the function's arguments can be fulfilled.root
- property - provides access to the root container.when
- function - registers a callback invoked when an item can be resolved with all dependencies.
Containers are nested. The root container always exists and most registrations will be made there. Nested containers provide isolation boundaries where registrations can be specialized (overriden).
Container's constructor takes an optional argument, next
, which indicates where the container is nested. Containers form a chain back to the root
container, so if next
is omitted, it will automatically be chained to root
- property - determines if the container can resolve an item with all dependencies.get
- function - gets an item according to its registration.has
- function - determines if an item has a registration.register
- function - registers a named item and returns itsRegistration
- function - registers a callback function to be invoked when the function's arguments can be fulfilled.when
- function - registers a callback invoked when an item can be resolved with all dependencies.
Registrations are used to instruct the container as to how each registered object should be treated. It establishes the behavior related to each.
Function Descriptions
get: gets an item registered with the container
var it = miniocget'what';
If you're getting something that takes arguments, you may fulfill those arguments, overriding any injected or configured values.
var it = miniocget'what' domain: 'joe.bob.me' ;
has: determines if the container can fulfill requests for an item
if miniochas'what' console.log'yay';
register: registers an item with the container.
// as a bare-value... miniocregister'calculator'asvalue; // ... or as a factory ... miniocregister'calculator'asfactory return new Calculator;; // ... or as a ctor ... miniocregister'calculator'asctorCalculator;
fulfill: shedules a callback function to be invoked as soon as all of its dependencies can be met.
// an identifying name must be provided with a fulfillment callback; // this example indicates it is dependent on `config`, so minioc will // invoke the callback as soon as it can inject the `config` // dependency... miniocfulfill'must-be-named' console.log'Yay! We have a `config` ' + $config;;
when: provides a callback to be invoked when a particular, named item gets registered.
miniocwhen'calculator' // `it` refers to the calculator here. ;
var minioc = require'minioc';
Obtaining a Container
Once imported, minioc
can be used as the root container.
var minioc = require'minioc' expect = require'expect.js'; expectminioctohaveproperty'can';expectminioctohaveproperty'has';expectminioctohaveproperty'get';expectminioctohaveproperty'when';expectminioctohaveproperty'register';expectminioctohaveproperty'fulfill';
Registering Bald Values
Any javascript object can be placed in the container by name and retrieved later.

Just today I started having severe fps drops (down to 5-10) while playing. Before 3.9, I played with pretty high settings and always had over 60 fps. I'm on a brand new 15" MBP with 16 gb ram and a 2.8 core processor. I've noticed that many windows users seem to be having fps problems since the patch], and I was wondering if more mac users were having problems as well or if this is uncommon. If anyone knows a temporary fix, I would be grateful. I've looked here and elsewhere and can't seem to find any other mac user with a recent similar issue.

Numerous metallic elements are regarded as "critical": on one hand, they play an ever more important role in so-called future technologies and on the other, there is a high risk of supply bottlenecks. Small and medium-sized companies are also affected by this, and they are often not sure which of these materials they are dependent on. At a "Technology Briefing" at Empa, strategies for the sustainable use of critical materials were presented and discussed.
Urs Elber, Managing Director of Empa's Research Focus Area «Energy», explains how the energy supply will change in the years to come and how Empa supports this transformation.

In normal cases Dibs is a stupid game that children play with things that they can't actually have, but among the people of The Mals Nation it's an entirely different story. Dibs is a legally binding statement. Once the announcement has been made that one has "Dibs" on anything (living or not) it cannot be disputed.

Velocio - continuing the HTC-HighRoad women's team A new management company takes over with majority of riders confirmed to continue The team will be known as Team Specialized lululemon The director of a new sports management company, Kristy Scrymgeour, has announced that the HTC-HighRoad team will continue into 2012. Most of the 2011 riders are contracted to the squad, with the addition of an exciting prospect for the 2012 London Olympics, Canadian, Clara Hughes. Joining the team from elsewhere are Trixi Worrack (AA Drink) and Lisa Brennauer (Hitec Products). Not listed as continuing from the 2011 HTC-HighRoad team in the squad which has been announced are 2011 World time trial Champion Judith Arndt, Amanda Miller and Adrie Visser. It was announced in August that both the men's and women's HTC-HighRoad team would cease to exist at the end of the season, due to a lack of sponsors. Initially, it had been hoped that the women's team would continue, but this hope gradually disappeared. Instead, former Marketing and Communications Director with High Road Sports, Kristy Scrymgeour, has established a new management company and taken over the women's team. High Road Sports maintains a sponsorship interest in the team, thanks to long-time supporter of women's cycling, Bob Stapleton, who was the initial owner and set up the outgoing team, which can be traced back to 2006 with respect to its European activities and much earlier in the USA. The team, which will be known as Team Specialized lululemon, has major sponsors, Specialized bikes and athletic clothing company, lululemon, which is based in Vancouver. "Bob
[Stapleton] has been an avid supporter of women's cycling for many years and
we would like to carry on his hard work by continuing the team with much of
the same structure in place," said Director of Velocio Sports, Kristy
Scrymgeour. "He has been very supportive of the project and will
provide us with valuable equipment to get us going." The team will race on the all-new 2012 Specialized Amira, upon which they took many great victories in 2011 and showcased it as a podium-worthy women's race bike. The women will also ride the World (time trial) Championship-winning S-Works Shiv, the S-Works Prevail. They will use TT2 helmets, as well as Specialized Body Geometry Oura saddles and S-Works shoes. Management and staff returning to the setup are Team Manager / Sports Director, Ronny Lauke with Oliver Grabowski (Head Mechanic) and Beth Duryea (Head Soigneur) The riders confirmed for 2012 are : Ina-Yoko Teutenberg (GER) Evelyn Stevens (USA) Amber Neben (USA) Clara
Hughes (CAN) Emilia Fahlin (SWE) Chloe Hosking (AUS) Ally Stacher (USA) Charlotte Becker (GER) Katie Colclough (GBR) Trixi Worrack (GER) Lisa

Justices said Judge G. Todd Baugh lacks authority to reconsider the sentence he gave former Billings, Mont. teacher Stacey Rambold, 54. An appeal of the case was already pending, but Baugh had been seeking to undo a sentence that was widely criticized when he remarked that victim Cherice Moralez was "older than her chronological age."
An online petition calling for Baugh's resignation, after he was widely seen as letting the former teacher off lightly with a month-long sentence, has garnered more than 50,000 signatures.
The girl in the case committed suicide in 2010, while Rambold's trial was pending.
The Attorney General's Office filed an emergency petition to stop Friday's hearing, scheduled for 1:30 p.m. MDT. Attorneys for the state warned that holding it as planned could throw the case into disarray and "cause gross injustice to an orderly appeal."
The high court on Friday afternoon vacated the resentencing hearing and ordered Baugh to enter a written sentencing for Rambold. Baugh had never signed a written sentencing order after making his oral pronouncement in the case during an Aug. 26 hearing. The oral order takes precedence in Montana, but the written judgment still is required.
Prosecutors contend that state law dictates Rambold serve at least two years in prison. Rambold's defense attorney wanted the sentence unchanged, but agreed with prosecutors that it can be undone only on appeal.
The Yellowstone County Attorney's office had originally called for a 20-year prison sentence for Rambold, with 10 years suspended.
But prosecutors did not challenge the 30-day sentence as illegal until after the fact, when they discovered the mandatory minimum term for sexual intercourse without consent was two years.
The sentence handed down Aug. 26 had been suggested by Rambold's attorney, Jay Lansing.
Lansing said in a court brief filed this week that a new sentence from Baugh would have created "confusion and uncertainty for all parties."
He also said that the original sentence -- 15 years with all but 31 days suspended and a one-day credit for time served -- was allowed under state law.
Baugh has said giving Rambold the minimum mandatory sentence was appropriate due to the circumstances of the case. He described the former teacher with no prior record as a low risk to re-offend after spending more than two years in a sex-offender treatment program.
The defendant entered that program in 2010, after Moralez's suicide left prosecutors without their main witness in the case shortly before it was scheduled to go to trial.
That led to a deferred prosecution deal that allowed Rambold to avoid trial until he violated the terms of the agreement last year, for not reporting that he was in a sexual relationship with a woman and for unauthorized visits with family members' children.
Court documents show there were complaints about Rambold's conduct with female students as early as 2004. Three years before his relationship with Moralez, prosecutors say, "he was warned to stay away from young girls in his class."
No charges were filed, and Lansing has said his client would challenge those accusations.

Prince George Makes Polo Début
On June 15, Prince George attended his first polo match with his parents at the Cirencester Park Polo Club in Windsor Great Park.
Prince George wore a comfortable looking red dungarees with a practical white top. He was seen crawling and walking, but with the help of his mother. He also enjoyed playing with a football, until a little girl took it from him.
The Queen, Duke of Edinburgh and Prince Harry were also seen at the polo match to watch the Cartier Polo Match with William, Kate and little George.
Kate wore a Me + Em top with jeans. She had previously worn the top at an engagement during her tour to Australia and New Zealand, as well as various other occasions.

Prince George, not a toddler as yet, will one day become the King of the United Kingdom. I wish him the best possible gifts that life has in store for Him, as Constitutional Monarchy, not just in England, but in many other countries – hopefully in Romania as well, where the restore of it is much desired by many of us – is the only way to keep dictatorship away.
I wish little Prince George a long happy life!

Thanks for the info but I think you are talking about two different polo matches. The Queen and Prince Phillip were at a different polo match and Princes Harry, William, George and Duchess Kate were at a charity match at a different locale. The photo is nice, though.

Carolina's Odom previews the Tennessee game on Sunday
March 7, 2008 Columbia, SC - South Carolina head coach Dave Odom met with the media on Fri., March 7 to preview the Tennessee game on Sun., March 9 at 2 pm EST on Raycom. Odom opened the press conference with the following statements: "Tennessee is tempo, tempo, tempo. Everything with them is speed and when you are taking speed, you are talking 'what speed?' - NASCAR-level or a bit more controlled? We have to establish the speed quickly. If they are 14 or 16 points down like they were against Florida, their play doesn't change. If they are 14 up, it could quickly blow up to 25 and they don't change. They press when it's appropriate, always pushing the ball offensively, drives sinking the defense. They have tenacious attacking of the offensive glass. They are a really good team and obviously you have the other problems: 22,000 in Thompson-Boling, last game, all that. We have not practiced since Kentucky (took Thursday off) and when we have had a disappointing game, we normally come back and play really well. Our history has been when we play poorly, although the score was not that one-sided, we didn't play really well. Our history is to come back and play really well the next game. "We know what we are going to get with Tennessee the last game of the year in Knoxville. Generally the kind of pressure they put on you is different in games than it is against Tennessee live (like what you practice against vs. what you see live). I don't expect there will be a tremendous line-up change if there is at all." Will you have any special emotions going into the final game of the year before the tournament?
Odom: "I think that part of it is over. The emotion of my departure has received maybe undo attention. It was more than I imagined. I was just taken aback by it. I think now we can play basketball, trying to be a better team and improving. It is the last regular season game away and we will certainly the concentration will be on our team and not some kind of ceremony. It will simply be an away game, playing a top team in the country with a lot at stake. The tournament might feel a little different, but I don't' see this game being all that emotional."
Would you want to play the spoiler vs. Tennessee? Odom: "I am not good at that. I want us to win the game because we are getting better, but not to spoil Tennessee's party. I want us to win because we are good enough." Are you afraid this game could get ugly if you aren't paying attention? Odom: "I am not afraid because they can make it ugly for everybody. The only way it gets ugly is they play out of their minds and we let that happen without competing. If we don't play intelligent basketball than yes that could certainly happen, but that would happen to anybody. You can go back and see they have done that to a lot of people this year. We will challenge them to play the game with the intention that we will play hard and play with a great determination. Tennessee is far and away the quickest and most defensively important team that we've played this year. The best thing they do is attack the glass." |

Publicidad ▼
Yuat | |
Geographic distribution: |
New Guinea |
Linguistic classification: | a primary family of Papuan languages |
Subdivisions: |
Yuat proper
The Yuat languages are an independent family of six Papuan languages in the classification of Malcolm Ross that had been part of Stephen Wurm's Sepik–Ramu proposal. However, Foley and Ross could find no lexical or morphological evidence that they are related to the Sepik or Ramu languages.
Contents |
The Yuat languages proper are Changriwa, Kyenele (Miyak), Mekmek, Biwat (Mundugumor), Bun.
Ethnologue (2005) classified the erstwhile near-isolate Maramba as closest to the Yuat family, and Ethnologue (2009) lists it as simply one of the Yuat languages.
The pronouns Ross reconstructs for proto-Yuat are:
I | *ŋun | we | *amba |
thou | *ndi | you | *mba |
s/he | *wu | they | ? |

We love beer. That's why we're devoting an entire year to discovering (and drinking) cold ones from near and far. Know of a beer worth shouting out? Send us a note.
If you're drinking in Philly, you should probably try this beer on principle alone. Brewed exclusively for Philly Beer Week, this flowery, floral saison by New York's Southern Tier is far removed from the big, sweet beers Southern Tier is best known for. Rather than a high-octane explosion of booze and malts, this is a subtle, fragrant beer that gives off aromas of fresh soap (really) and recent rainfalls. The grassy, earthy tone often associated with saisons is subdued here, replaced instead with notes of flowers and lemongrass. So yeah, this is a little off the beaten path. Effervescent and bright, this is a beer you'll want to enjoy on a hot day. Consider pairing it with a soft cheese. Though brewed for Philly Beer Week, 215 can still be found on draft, including at Time, The Trestle Inn and Fingers Wings and Other Things.

Robust Design of Spectrum-Efficient Green Optical Backbone Networks
Journal of Lightwave Technology, Vol. 31, Issue 7, pp. 1138-1144 (2013)
Acrobat PDF (1160 KB)
We propose an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based optical network design focussing on minimizing the total power consumption of the network to make the network green. OFDM is a promising technology for next-generation optical networks to support high capacity and heterogeneity in network traffic by having flexible bandwidth allocation per wavelength. Another paradigm for supporting traffic heterogeneity and high bandwidth demands is mixed-line-rate (MLR) networks where wavelengths can have discrete capacities of 10/40/100 Gbps which are single carrier based.In this study, we compare the energy efficiency of an OFDM-based network versus a MLR network. We formulate mixed integer linear program (MILP) models to design energy-efficient MLR and OFDM-based networks with two scenarios: (1) with fixed average traffic per source-destination pair of the network, and (2) with uncertainties in the traffic that an actual network may have. For scenario (2), we employ a robust optimization technique which is called Γ-robust optimization.Our results show that OFDM outperforms MLR in terms of energy efficiency especially when the traffic in the network takes random peaks in some of the links.

What are you most proud of? I was able to make it on the second attempt though I am still working on the net as the weave is hard in a way though not- its the space involved = have to do some more practice on it
What advice would you give someone starting this project? take your time have fun and above all else keep trying- a lot of my items break or never get to the completion stages because I get frustrated not only with the item but myself and my lack of ability but you have to keep in mind there are good days and bad days and days when it is best to just step back and go do something else...like minecraft or world of warcraft or walking in the rain.. or even sleeping- we are not always going to beable to do the things we want however we can always try to do the things we dream and everyonce in a great while we are able to complete and or make something of value as we build our own charcter and our own abilities- which are worth more than any trinket. :) happy monday
I like that you keep trying, you are like me, I never give up! :) Do you make your jewelry for yourself or do you sell it?
I make it and throw it in a bag, put a date on it and throw it in a box. I used to take it to my family and let them go through it but I stopped doing that when they wanted me to change things and make things to their desires. My husband wants me to sell it. My daughter wants to wear it. And I just enjoy making it- no strings
Great job!! Glad you were able to get the project completed! I LOVE this metal clay, and definitely need to step outside my little box of comfort! Great inspiration!
