WDFW approves morning
razor clam digs starting April 4
OLYMPIA – State shellfish managers have approved a weeklong series of razor clam digs starting April 4 at four ocean beaches.
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) confirmed the digs after marine toxin tests showed the clams on those beaches are safe to eat.
All of the digs are scheduled on morning tides. No digging will be allowed on any beach after noon.
Dan Ayres, WDFW coastal shellfish manager, reminds diggers they will need a valid 2015-16 fishing license to participate in all upcoming razor clam digs, since the new license year begins April 1. Various types of fishing licenses are available online (fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov/), by phone (866-246-9453), and from authorized license dealers throughout the state.
"The razor clams we're seeing are really fattening up, and are perfect for the frying pan," Ayres said.
Under state law, diggers are required to keep the first 15 clams they dig. Each digger's clams must be kept in a separate container
The upcoming dig is scheduled on the following dates, beaches, and low tides:
WDFW has also proposed additional digs in April and May, pending the results of future marine toxin tests. Tentative dates for those digs are posted on the department's website at wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/shellfish/razorclams/current.html.
During all upcoming digs, state wildlife managers urge clam diggers to avoid disturbing snowy plovers and streaked horned larks. Both species nest in the soft, dry sand at Leadbetter Point on the Long Beach Peninsula, and on a section of Twin Harbors beach.
The snowy plover is a small bird with gray wings and a white breast. The lark is a small bird with a pale yellow breast and brown back. Male larks have a black mask, breast band and "horns."
Tentative upcoming digs
Below is the tentative schedule of proposed razor clam digs, along with evening low tides and beaches and if marine toxin tests are favorable:
All diggers age 15 or older must have an applicable 2015-16 fishing license to harvest razor clams on any beach. Licenses, ranging from a three-day razor clam license to an annual combination fishing license, are available on WDFW's website at https://fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov and from license vendors around the state.
The Washington Department of Health (DOH) monitors shellfish for a variety of contaminants, including biotoxins, pollution, and radiation. For more information on shellfish safety, visit DOH's recreational shellfish webpage.

I have many nautical towels already. I have never seen nautical towels this thin. All my towels are thick and soft. I have no idea where they found these! I promptly sent them back!
Even after washing 3-4 times, these towels still shed and are not at all absorbent
These towels are the perfect blue color for my guest bath, but a little on the thin side. When I find the same color in a thicker towel, I will ditch these and get more plush ones. For now, these are adequate but not great.
These towel are excellent! Quality all the way! Just what I expected from Nautica. I ordered 2 sets of blue wish I order more.
Not the softest towels I've felt, but pretty good. The colors are accurate, too. Overall, good product.
Great towel set. Good value!
Great towels in our freshly painted bathroom.
Just received this set today so can't comment on performance yet. But I did want to say something about the color. I have been looking for a brighter yellow to complement my daughter's master bath. When I saw the picture, and the name 'Sunshine Yellow,' I thought this would be perfect! But no, this is actually a very drab yellow and darker than pictured. Since I ordered this for Valentine's Day (an unusual gift, I know) I'm going to give it to her anyway and hope she can make it work.
I will not buy any other towels. The Nautica towels are the softest and fluffiest towels I've ever touched. Even wash after wash they still hold up. I have had a brown set for over seven years and they are still like new. I just purchased white ones for my downstairs bathroom and love them just the same. I will not get rid of them. Worth every cent!
Very pleased with the towels. Always seem to need more. Liked the color and the quality.

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 2287 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by ToniCTravelAmeniti1 Service Squared in Times Square The location for this property is convenient to Times Square. The property needs improvement. The spg recognitions is subpar but it is a good alternative to more expensive hotels. Very hard to get an upgrade as an elite traveler. It is telling when a lot of platinum members rate this hotel so low. They really need to improve. January 10, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by minie13 Horrible The front desk is not friendly, they don't even make an effort to treat you well. I never had such a bad treatment in a 5 stars hotel. Is unfair to pay more than 400 usd per night and don't even have free wifi in rooms. Even 10 euro hostels have. To use the frigobar, you need to pay extra money. It doesn't make sense. I felt like if I wanted to use anything more than the bed bath and tv, I would have to pay a lot, even though I was already paying a lot of money. I do not recomend this hotel for anyone and for sure will never come back. It doesn't make any difference if you are a SPG member or not. I have never stayed in a hotel with this price which has plastic curtain. absolutely disappointed. I stayed 25 days in this horrible hotel. October 25, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by beegold2015 Disorganized establishment First I was assigned a room only to get to the room to find it wasn't clean or someone was still inhabiting the room because their stuff was still there. Then I was assigned another room only to get there and find maintenance men in the room who said it was not ot be occupied. Now my check in process had taken over 30 minutes now and countless futile trips up and down the elevators with all of my bags and I was late for dinner with friends. The hotel manager met me and said he would put 6,000 SPG points on my account and he said they were giving me some kind of upgraded room. When I got to the room it was nothing special, same size as any regular room, no special amenities, even the view wasn't special, it was just a higher floor overlooking nothing in particular. And now, after giving it over 2 weeks to hit my account, I don't even see the points the hotel manager promised me...I am a gold level SPG member and am appalled by the deteriorated service I received at this hotel and am even more disappointed at their lack of attempt to rectify their issues or follow through on their own managerial promises. Hard to be loyal to a brand you can't trust and that doesn't value your loyalty in return. February 20, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by Atlax Not for road warriors who need restful sleep Given its location, the rooms are very noisy, especially at night with the subway sounds, cars and tourists all mixed together!! That was the primary reason that I cut short my stay and moved to another hotel. The response from the Reception was that all rooms were like this so there was no point moving to another room! I have stayed at other hotels along this stretch all the way to Times Square and never faced such a ruckus - couldn't sleep for half the night and got a headache! Apart from that, during check-in, the SPG counter was under-staffed; I waited 10 minutes and then moved to the other line which was moving 5x faster. October 15, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Skinner74 Small "superior room" with zero water pressure I was disappointed with my stay. I chose to use more Starpoints to get the Superior room (can't imagine what the Standard room would be) and had a room with barely enough space for the king sized bed to fit. No space for single suitcase that I wasn't tripping. Bathroom was tiny. Water pressure was non-existent (think dribble). Paid $25 extra for club level access which was to include evening hors d'oerves and breakfast - both of which were minimal at best. Overall it was a very poor experience and I will find an alternative next time. July 16, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Mark17 Extremely Disrecpectful operator I have been staying in this hotel for over past three years. on August 15th around 2:10pm EST I called to request for a folio and the operator was kept transferring me to wrong extension witout even completely listening the request. For the fourth time I called and asked to please fully listen the request so that she can transfer to appropriate party, her response was "I dont know anything i work in a different department" and she transferred me again to some ext. I called back again and she kept putting me hold and ignoring the call. I would rate the hotel due to this incident unsatifactory on the our corporate website also. August 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ckw11 Excellent hotel in a great location. We had an excellent stay at this hotel. We booked the hotel for 4 nights through Priceline. We were upgraded to a renovated king which was beautifully appointed and clean. The staff throughout our stay were very professional and friendly. The only downside was the valet parking operated by the garage beside the hotel...we rarely drive into New York...good news...they were _very_ slow both on arrival, and on departure...like 30 minutes+... the hotel itself though was perfect...we added a day to our stay from the Sheraton website... December 26, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Taramizoo Very Nice I had an excellent stay here, I love this hotel. It's very clean, comfortable, luxurious and they even give you something special if it's your birthday! November 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gunner Awesome all the way around, baby!! A quick check in was superb. When we got to our room, WOW a beautiful, beautiful suite on the corner seeing Central Park and Time Square! Thank you so much. Love the electric curtain openers!!! The housekeeper for the week was the most friendliest and kind woman. We love her! The Club Lounge on the 44th floor was VERY GENEROUS to everyone and it was WONDERFUL to see the same employees there for so many years!! Excellent staff throughout the entire hotel down to the bellmen! We are very happy! Thank you Sheraton New York!! I am a VIP member with Starwood Not platinum or gold but a real VIP member and you did not disappoint. November 30, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by thatcyclist worst Club Lounge Great check-in....Great staff....housekeepers were all smiles and so friendly...upgraded to a suite but the Club Lounge was AWFUL....honestly I have stayed in Sheratons which were category 2 3 4 which offered better breakfasts.....None of the staff in the Club Lounge greeted you and the breakfast offerings were minimal....a real disappointment November 18, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by TypicalTourist awful services and not so smart management Valet service parking was no where to be found upon arrival on 12/26/11. Was told that their associated garage was full, but did recommend a nearby garage where I learned that garage was also full. Finally, into the hotel lobby at 3:30PM after wasted nearly an hour on parking. To my surprise, the check-in line was about a mile long. Waited for another 90 minutes just for check-in (into a merely mediocre room). Ready to relax in my room? Not so fast with a cold room. Not to speak about the heating unit, there was no thermostat, but a very old on/off switch that was well hidden away. Next morning, I was awaken and was greeted by the renovation banging noise. One night was more than enough experience with this overrated Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers. BTW, no pool & SPA! December 27, 2011
Rated 1 out of 5 by jinnyLA not pleased with service arrived from a red-eye expecting to have room ready to freshen up before meeting. no room ready, couldn't find reservations. staff unhelpful, unapologetic, and borderline rude. did not recognize SPG status, offered nothing in consideration. room was small with a bathroom you could barely turn-around in. Overall poor experience. June 19, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Terry17 Baggage fees at hotel???? We arrived 9/22 for a 1 night stay. The Clinton Global Initiative was at hotel, so to say the hotel was overrun would be kind. Went to the SPG Preferred desk (gold members) there was a customer being helped and 1 waiting in front of us. After helping the customer at desk, the employee left , we waited a few minutes then we got on regular line. After we were through being helped we saw the same customer was still waiting for "Preferred" help. We get to our room 3515 the keys do not work, back down we go. While we were dressing the next day my husband sat on couch, he called me over the entire dust ruffle was stained we are not sure if it was vomit or red wine....disgusting in any event. Instead of getting a late check out we decide to check bags. We go down to the bell hop who RUDELY informs us go to 6th floor we don't check bags. We go back to the 6th floor (note there are NO signs in room or elsewhere to advise you of this). We then find out there is a $3.25 fee per bag!! Is this new or just a way to make $ off conventions? Of course there were lines at every counter so there was no one to talk to. This hotel is geared towards conferences but seriously bag fees? No customer service to be seen anywhere as a Starwood member this hotel ranks very low. Would not recommend at all. September 25, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by ALEX51ARG LOUSY RESERVATIONS This is the SECOND time my reservation was misinterpreted. I arrive always early morning so book AND PAY the night before so as to have room ready. FRONT DESK finds a free room doesn´t care reservation is in place an PAID and just goes and uses room. I arrive early morning after long 15 hs flight and my room is not available (NO FREE I AM PAYING EVEN NOT USING THAT NIGHT) and nobody can fix the problem until you go thru very rough discussions with mgr on duty. Repeat this is the SECOND time this happens. November 22, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Drews Terrible Hotel in a Great Location I experienced two major problems, one related to an unacceptable room, the other incompetent service. The hotel is in the middle of renovations. The unrenovated rooms are small, dingy, and are filled with old, outdated furnishings. They should not be listed in the same inventory as the new rooms for the same prices, it's just not right. So yea, the rooms aren't great, but here's the real problem: only half of the hotel rooms have climate control systems, the other half have been switched over to heat (the AC is off for the season). Thus, on an unusually warm evening in Manhattan, no AC means the room is very stuffy. I called down to ask them to turn on the AC. They told me that they couldn't and that the whole hotel was switched over to heat. Of course, now I know that was a lie, since half the hotel has been renovated. But they didn't tell me that on the phone. No, they told me I should just open a window. But of course, being blocks from Times Square, an open window at night means you might not be hot, but most definitely will not get any sleep from the traffic and construction noise going on outside. So they finally said they could bring be a fan, and I said sure. Now, onto service. My call down was around 1130PM. The fan arrived at about 1:30 with a loud knock on the door while I was already in bed. That's really unacceptable under any circumstances. Shame on this hotel, never staying here again.

Rated 1 out of 5 by TorontoTraveller Terrible Service On arrival I had a very unpleasant experience with the parking staff, & when I complained on registration, both the front desk clerk & then the front desk manager failed to take any responsibility, stating merely that the parking valets did not work for them, in spite of the fact that I was paying the hotel for the parking. The general manager was supposed to call me but never did. They appear not to realize that this is essentially a service industry. This initial experience soured my entire stay. September 9, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by hon31 Hotel Amenities Our room was adequate but the bathroom was incredibly small with very little counter room. shower was weak and we could not get really hot water at any time. Trying to print boarding passes was a giant headache with no printers working or without ink to print. Finally got a girl at the desk to print info so we could get passes at airport. Cab service was good and convenient. No internet in room unless you pay $15 daily and they charge $3.25 to check baggage if you need time before you leave. Few hangers in the closet for hanging clothing. We have stayed in much better places for less and had much better service. Will not return to this hotel when we go back to the city. December 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by pam410 Pamela Grigsby Really enjoyed my stay, the room was really clean and updated. The breakfast bar isn't as good as the Sheraton Music City in Nashville but the service was EXCELLENT. I can't pronounce my waiter for the 3 day stay name but it began with an E. and i am pulling Luzviminda from my receipt as the last name. He was the highlight of our stay at your hotel and has left a lasting impression with my mom!!! If i return to NY the Sheraton NY Times will be my place of choice and I have highly recommended your hotel with everyone that I have come in contact with to share my New York visit. Thanks so much for the great service!! March 5, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by meg53 Feels like you are still at the airport When i pay $440 for a hotel room even in NY, I expect to be treated better than I do at the airport. Waited in line 30 minutes to be told no room was ready. then paid $3.75 for them to store my bags for the 4 hours it took for them to get me a room. Of course, I had to wait in line 10 minutes to check my bag. Then I had to wait in line another 20 minutes to ask about my room again. It was ready but then another 10 minutes at the bag storage area to get my bags. Unbelievable! The room was fine once I got there but being treated like a herd of cows prior to getting there was not worth. I will never stay there again. May 21, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Antonio Is this the best Starwood has to offer in New York? The name of this hotel is The Sheraton New York ("& Towers" has been dropped from the name. We requested early check-in & for 1 pm a room upgrade. On arrival were told our room was not ready! Returned at 3:30 and were assigned to Room 4541. Room was a standard dbl - no upgrade. The club lounge was overcrowded and there was no attendant on the weekend. I asked to switch our Plat amenity to breakfast vouchers and was denied. Then I discovered the Sheraton unilaterally redeemed my points for a dining credit! This has now been reversed, but it left a very bad taste. Is this the best Starwood has to offer in Manhattan? May 26, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by 2012katie No flexibility with client needs Both check-in and check-out processes were stressful - with just 3 rooms & 6 people. Internet system (used to pull up information) is limiting staff to give faster service, to pull up client requested information, and the inability to respond to client concerns. Without the flexibility or genuine willingness to listen to a client's needs and situations, you will lose clientele. Also, our room was connected to another room (via a door) and noise carried through, which made it hard to rest. June 5, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rvkplat Excellent Hotel! I stay at this property several times a year and have always had outstanding stays. The staff really cares about the level of service you receive. The rooms are in excellent condition. The club lounge is one of the best in the Starwood system. Zoe and her staff really care about providing excellent customer service. I have never been disappointed when staying at this property. I have stayed at many of the Starwood properties in NYC and this is my first choice when traveling to NYC. February 26, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 Below expectation I fly from hong kong to NYC to spend weekend, all I want is a king size bed high rise room, but when I get there I was told the toilet was broken in my room and they can only give me a low rise double room, or I could wait in the lobby for two hour until they fix it?! And the receptionist was not nice at all after all these. I try to argue and she became impatient and had no smile all the time. Finally I got to talk to manager to get it arranged. P.s. wifi for 15$?! No bath tub?! September 18, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Jenn620 Not satisfied I have worked in Hotels before and this was not acceptable. The man checking me in at the front desk was rude and did not even confirm how many nights I was staying! I had to wait over 20 minutes to even check in maybe you should hire some more front desk staff because everyone was complaining about it! Then I left my glasses in the hotel room and an english friend of mine went to pick them up and he was made fun of because of his accent by the hotel staff!! July 25, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by bev50 fantastic choice of hotel i stayed in this hotel at the end of november 2011 for 5 nights, it is absol;utely excellent the position is so close to everything 3-5 mins walk fromm central park, rockerfellar centre, times square 5th ave etc etc it is spotlessly clesn and the staff were very accomodating (although we didnt really need to ask them much)!! it is a safe area in the evenings especially for a group of females!11 definately would stay there again its PERFECT!! and well priced too January 9, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by UserNameG Unacceptable It started at check-in. I got in line behind 2 other gentlement in the non-Gold/Platinum line. That check-in was staffed with 2 people while there were 0 people in my check-in line. Each of us watched as people cycled through the Preferred line with not a single staff member even looking our way. Finally, after 30 minutes, the gentleman in front of me shouted for one of them to come over there. To add insult to injury, it sounded like someone was using a jackhammer 2 rooms away. When I called Guest Services, they informed me that.they were removing scaffolding outside my window. No apology. Nothing. Good luck working from your hotel room when everyone asks you what that noise is? May 28, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by DS523 DOUBLE CHECK YOUR BILL DOUBLE CHECK YOUR BILL WHEN YOU LEAVE. I booked through Priceline and was charged one fee. Then saw on my bank account that a SECOND fee of $300+ was charged to my debit card from Sheraton. Apparently, there was a "credit card mix-up" and someone else's room was charged to mine. THAT IS NOT 4-STAR QUALITY SERVICE. I'm told it's going to take almost 2 weeks to rectify, and no solution other than "sorry" has been offered. Absolutely terrible. July 3, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by FrustratedInNewYork Service let me down When checking in for an Easter weekend visit to New York with my family, I found out only then that it was not possible for me to hire a roll-out bed to accommodate my family in a single room, even though my reservation indicated I could do so. Presumably, the recent renovations of the hotel rooms no longer allows for any roll-outs to be hired. I had to book a separate 'starwood ' room (lucky I had enough points in my 'Platinum' account to do so) to avoid cancelling my entire holiday weekend. And then, since our rooms were not available, we had to endure another frustrating wait in line to not only store but also pick up our luggage later, only to discover that they'd 'lost' one piece, which we ended up recovering after another anxious hour or so wait. Constant and lengthy line-ups for bag drop would discourage anyone from returning to stay here. April 12, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by FRUSTRATED75 Continues to be a bad experience 2 months later We arrived at the hotel on July 5th for a dance convention that my daughter was attending. I had made reservations in JAN for this hotel. Upon checking in I was told that they did not have a double bed room that I reserved that they only had a king bed with a chaise; so started my horrible experience. I told the girl that would not do and she went and got her manager Kenny. Kenny and basically says the same thing and I ask HOW if I reserved a room 6 months ago and you not have it. He told me he could try and explain it but it didn't matter because they didn't have it. He said it with such attitude and condensation that caused me to get angrier at this situation. He then tried to blame it on the dance convention we were attending and I told him that wasn't going to work since it was SHERATON I had booked with. He told me it would be the next day before they would have a room with a double bed and that I would need to contact them in the morning and be in my room so they could get us moved over. We took the room they had and I left to join the group. Upon talking to another mom in my group she was told they didn't have a room ready but that the housekeeping staff was behind and it would be ready soon and they offered her $50 off per night she was there. She and I went back to the desk so someone could tell me why I was told something different and why nothing was offered to me as a discount. Spoke with Kenny AGAIN and got the same answer with the same attitude that the other mothers witnessed as well. Lucky for me another mom in our group said that the room we got would be better for them and we were able to switch, NOTE I FIXED THE ISSUE NOT SHERATON!!!!!! The following say I called down to find out the status of the fridge we had requested since as well that had not been received. I had been told the night before that there was a waiting list and I should get one soon. Of course when I called down and spoke to an agent who got me manager on duty Luke he didn't have me on the waiting list. He and I spoke at length about the previous night and how I fixed the problem myself and he told me they would allow me to keep my credit of $50/ per night. I laughed… ALLOW ME that wasn't even a question anymore. He told me he would call me back in 15 minutes about the refrigerator. He did and told me it would be brought to our room in 15 minutes. 45 minutes later I call back down and get someone in "guest services" I asked to speak to Luke she asked if she could help and I said no I need to speak to Luke, She transferred me and I got his voicemail. I called back got the same lady and she gave me her manager who got on the phone and was yelling (the other mother with us in the room could hear her across the room) at me about how Luke shouldn't have promised me anything. I said he did and she said well she would just get me the General Manager… Finally I thought… No, I got his VM so I called back to ask to have him paged or something and I again got the same "guest services" lady who told me, Ms we cannot just get him out of a meeting to talk to you I will leave a message with his secretary and she HUNG UP ON ME!!!! I grabbed me hotel key and set off to find the manager myself I was directed to the 4th floor and got to talk to him face to face.. He apologized and spoke very frank which I appreciated and I thought things were solved. We enjoyed the rest of our trip, got my bill before we left and saw that they would credit me and home we came… It's now 2 months later and I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE THE CREDIT ON MY BILL!!! GO FIGURE… I would not recommend this hotel at all. August 31, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Salsero Would Not Let Me Check In I had a reservation for 2 nights. The website said the checkin time was 3 pm. I got to the hotel at 5 pm and they said there were no rooms available. I was not allowed to check into my room until 10 pm so I missed a whole day. The front desk staff was not helpful. I had to complain twice the the supervisor (I think her name is Meredith) before I could get my room at 10 pm. Other people were in the same situation and were not happy. September 6, 2012

Philips CD-i
The Philips CD-i is a multimedia CD player developed by Royal Philips Electronics and released in North America and Europe. As a video game console, it was one of the first to use a CD format for games. The CD-i was originally released in 1991 at the price of $700 in the United States.
Nintendo originally made a deal with Philips to develop an add-on for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System to allow it to play CD-based games, after having previously made a deal with Sony. The project was later aborted, but Philips was able to obtain the rights to Nintendo's intellectual properties for us on the CD-i.
Using Nintendo's licenses, Philips released three games for The Legend of Zelda series, one for the Mario series (two more were planned but were cancelled), and a version of Tetris. The The Legend of Zelda and Mario games received very bad reception, and the system generally sold poorly. Common criticisms of the CD-i were its price, its graphics (compared to the Super Nintendo or even the Sega Genesis), its poor library of games (including an influx of Point and click games and educational content), and the controls. Special criticism was used for the controllers of the CD-i. There were four main models of the controllers of the CD-i; a basic controller with three buttons and a D-pad (despite the fact that the console only used two buttons), another that resembled a spoon, another similar to the first one but with a protruding stick on top, and one resembling a TV remote, which was the one that came standard with all the consoles. None of the controllers featured a start button. In 1998, Philips announced that the CD-i had been discontinued.
Mario games[edit]
Unannounced Donkey Kong title[edit]
A Donkey Kong game was apparently in development for the system. The only known report of it is the LinkedIn resume of programmer Adrian Jackson-Jones, which states the game was in development during the 1992-1993 period at RSP. Jackson-Jones "designed and implemented the game engine" for the project[1].

From the PublisherPraise for Lance of Earth and Sky (The Chaos Knight Book Two)
"Highly entertaining…" -Kirkus Reviews
"Now unfettered by establishing her marvelous world and its magic and belief systems, this second volume is even better than the first, with author Erin Hoffman offering all out intrigue and action from cover to cover centering on troubled hero Vidarian…Hoffman's world just oozes careful world building, with clearly well thought out races and history that simply oozes from every page. Highly recommended." -SciFiPulse
"The second Chaos Knight fantasy is an engaging thriller…this fast-paced tale will remind readers of the Raymond E. Feist's Riftwar saga as Vidarian's struggles with the moral implications of what he wrought."

36 Hour Layover in Suriname
... police brigade drove right past us. I got a picture of the Presidents car, and tried to be discreet. The last thing I wanted was to end up like the Fort Zeelandia guys. The weather in Suriname was a lot of heat and humidity with the occasional down pour that was pretty intense. I think I changed my clothes 3 times in the 1 day that we were there. But it just didn't matter because the people were great, the food was amazing and for a rustic carribean ...
Paramaribo with my Bride
... massage. It was very relaxing. I was shocked at the price, $48US for a 60 minute massage.
Thursday evening, after my massage, we decided to try our luck in the casino. There is a brand new Ramada across the street from the Royal. It has a casino. We walked in, looked around, and settled on some of the old-style quarter slot machines. We cashed in $50SRD each for a cup of quarter-size tokens. That is roughly $17US. We made a pact to only use ...
Life in Suriname
... veg market, and a cash withdrawal machine. What else does one need?
We often go swimming at a guest house where it feels like an afternoon out of town, (whilst we're smack bang in the city center), but its nice! This is the only place I don't mind seeing so many other students!
Every 2 days I do my insanity work outs (look it up on you tube!) And if I don't have to cook I go running in the evenings at twilight. It's not all that safe to go ...
Night in Matapica
... smallest openings, and every 2m the boats man had to lift up the motor to remove all the grasses and weeds. The area is beautiful, filled with different bird types, and when the motor is finally off for a few seconds- complete silence, only birds and insects.
At the beginning of the boat trip we had some obstacles. The first was a bridge which we had to duck under while we boated our way under it. After that we had a kind of ramp (see pic) which our boats man raced ...
... seated in the plane the pilot turned around to us to ask that we put on the seat-belts. He continued, saying the flight would be about one and one-half hours long. The caveat was that we would be traveling through a lot of rain. We were to fly along the coast at an altitude of 7,50 feet.
Sure enough, on two occasions, we flew through some very heavy rains. We found ourselves in the clouds so we could see ...

- Introduction

- Government and society
- Cultural life
- History
Afghanistan's climatic and ethnic diversity has contributed to a wide variety of traditional habitations, particularly among the country's large rural population. Nomadic and transhumant groups have traditionally relied on yurts in the north—these are generally found among the Turkic and Mongol peoples—and tents in the south. The latter are favoured among the Pashtun groups. In the northern and western parts of the country, traditional sedentary settlements often have consisted of fortified villages of stone and mud-brick known as qalʿahs ("fortresses"), whereas in the northern and eastern mountain regions wooden, multistoried dwellings were customary among the Nuristani.
Until the modern period, urban dwellings were located within modest-sized walled cities, unchanged for centuries in their basic layout. It was only in the 20th century that urban centres began to spill outside the city walls and to take on characteristics associated with Western models, including high-rises, paved roads, and city services. Urban life deteriorated rapidly after the collapse of the communist regime, and a number of cities suffered severe damage to their infrastructures during the 1990s and early 21st century. By that time, few city services—electricity, water, sewage disposal—remained intact. Regardless, a large number of people fled the countryside, seeking shelter from the civil war. These people remained poorly housed and, lacking a central government, were forced to rely on private means for shelter. Rebuilding the country's housing stock has been one of the major tasks in national reconstruction.
Education is free at all levels, and elementary education is officially compulsory wherever it is provided by the state. Nonetheless, even in the best of years, less than one-fourth of all Afghan children have attended school. Although there are primary schools throughout the country, there are secondary schools in only the provincial and some district centres. Under the Taliban, opportunities for schooling declined, and instruction was devoted mostly to Qurʾānic studies. Public education for girls virtually disappeared. In the late 1990s less than half of the male population was estimated to be literate, and probably no more than one in seven women.
Higher education has been limited to two institutions: Kabul University, founded in 1946 by the incorporation of a number of faculties, the oldest of which is the faculty of medicine, established in 1932, and the University of Nangarhār, established in Jalālābād in 1963. The civil war interfered with their operation, especially during the 1990s and again during the U.S. military campaign in 2001.
Cultural life
Afghanistan has a rich cultural heritage covering more than 5,000 years and absorbing elements from many cultures, especially those of Iran (Persia) and India. Even elements of Greek culture can be traced to the Hellenistic Age. This blend of cultures flourished at many points in Afghan history, notably under the reign of the Mughal emperors, when Kabul and Herāt emerged as important centres of art and learning. Largely because of almost complete isolation from the outside world, however, little in art, literature, or architecture was produced between the 16th and early 20th centuries. Because most Afghans live outside the cities, their mode of living can be described as peasant tribal. Kinship is the basis of social life and determines the patriarchal character of the community.
Afghans are also identified by their qawm, a term that can refer to affinity with almost any kind of social group. It essentially divides "us" from "them" and helps to distinguish members of one large ethnic or tribal group, or one clan or village, from another. Particular responsibilities and advantages go with membership, and the stability of social and political institutions may vary with their qawm composition.

Diablo Ninebark from cuttings
marricgardensOctober 22, 2008
I've tried starting these several times in the past 2 years. Some in the spring, early summer and some later in the summer. I've also taken softwood cutting, semi-hardwood cuttings and none took. I've used the appropriate rooting hormone powder but nothing worked. When is the best time to start them? Thanks. Marg
Dont despair! I've found the Ninebark family to be as easy to root as they are beautiful and unknown. Are you using a mist system? If not, that will help immensely. I also found that earlier in the season I had higher success, but even later, I was running 80%+
PS- Diablo is patented. Don't try selling it!

Elmhurst Instrumental Music Boosters Board Meeting Minutes September 17, 2007 Gina O"Leary called the meeting to order at 7:30PM. Those in attendance: Gina O"Leary, Jacki Lawrence, Dayna Pierzchala, Michele Sorce, Voilet Abreu, Artemis Cosentino, Donna Mueller, David Field, Michele Bindeman, Diane Hund, Brian Berg, Rico Vazquez, Heather Knight. The minutes of the May meeting were approved as corrected. Gina proudly introduced our new members and stated their board positions. President: Gina O"Leary Secretary: Jacki Lawrence Treasurer: Diane Hund Membership: Michele Bindeman Social: Kelly Guziewski Scholarship: Violet Abreu Stipends: Donna Mueller Publicity: David Field 205 Scholarships: Michele Sorce Communications: Artemis Cosentino TREASURER Dayna reported that it was a break-even year. We should end with about $2500. Only 7 stipends were used. 25 scholarships were offered, 3 did not use them, saving about $1000. Our ending balance for last year/beginning balance for this year would be lower if all had accepted. We have already had to make some cost cutting measures. Membership was done. We did cut the snack out of the movie date. Summer band expenses were a bit less as we didn"t give a discount to those families with more than one child attending summer music camp. Dayna listed the camps of where those attended camp that had accepted scholarships. Once again, it was brought up that it is becoming increasingly more difficult for graduating 8th graders to find a camp that can accommodate them considering the York High school summer school program. Dayna pointed out that dollar for dollar, we have a great ratio of dollars spent per child as we have little administrative costs. The website is appx $669 for 2 years, the remainder of our admin costs are postage. Alterative fundraisers were discussed. Donna Mueller mentioned a "Blockbuster Performance" which could be a "music-thon" which might be something like hours of uninterrupted music. Students would play continuously; they would get sponsors, perhaps even from the community. It would be less formal and perhaps less stressful than the adjudicated solo festival. Market Day continues to struggle with going down a bit every year. Michele Bindeman, new chair for South Elmhurst/Bryan has some great ideas about breathing new life into the program in town. Heather suggested asking MD students to volunteer. DIRECTOR REPORT Mr. Berg introduced Rico Vazquez as the new band director at Sandburg. Summer camp attendance was down a bit from past years. The summer curriculum will be discussed and the timing of June vs. August will be revisited. There is a conflict no matter when it is held and staffing is an issue if it"s held at other times. The EIMB membership envelopes went out at Sandburg this past week and Bryan will be next week. 4th and 5th grade will go out when their programs begin. Numbers overall for the district are so far about the same as in the past. Mrs Knight reported that the winter Sandburg concerts will be paired a bit differently. Social Michele brought up the idea of attending a CSO concert. They offer concerts on Saturday afternoons that are geared towards a younger age and the cost is only $5. It was brought up that perhaps transportation to the city would be an issue. Membership Envelopes are going out. It needs to be encouraged to parents the advantages of being an EIMB member and what EIMB does for all students. Artemis to work on getting e-mails from directors so we can send updated monthly e-mails about Market Day , upcoming concerts and other info. Gina asked Mr. Berg for rosters by school. Scholarships No report. Stipends No report. Website/Publicity Website up and running, send Dave anything that needs to be put on it. Summer Instrumental Music Camp Scholarships (In Elmhurst) No news. Old Business: New Business: New centralized mailbox has been established at the Madison building. Gina will check it periodically. All Market Day checks and other things should go through this. An extra meeting was added for OCTOBER 15TH, to continue budget discussion. The meeting was adjourned at 8:55. Respectfully submitted Jacki Lawrence

Make Seed Cards for Xmas
A seed card is a piece of paper that contains flower seeds. The sender places a square 'seed card' (similar to a recipe card) in the xmas card and mails it. The receiver plants it in the ground in the spring and the seeds sprout and grow. Usually they are about 4 inches square. Some people cut out special shapes, but that wastes some paper/seeds.
First, make the paper. Tear up small pieces of paper, tissue paper, junk mail. Stay away from plastic-coated or glossy papers. If you use red paper it will turn the card pink. Allow paper to soak in warm water. The longer you allow it to soak up water the easier the process is. Place paper pieces in blender and mix until you have a thick pulp. Make sure you don't have pockets of unprocessed paper. Next add seeds: marigold, cosmos or whatever you've saved from your flowers. If you do not have saved seeds you can buy seeds. Sprinkle in the blender and mix. Mix it as little as possible, just until seeds are mixed in.
Prepare a flat surface. Place newspaper on table. Place a long piece of foil, plastic wrap or waxed paper. Foil tends to stick if pulp is sticky. Place pulp with seeds on waxed paper. Place a second piece on top and spread with rolling pin as thin as possible without leaving holes or empty places. Paper will not be thin like copier paper. It will feel like cardstock, but be lumpy. Remove top piece of waxed paper and leave it in a flat place to dry. Pulp may begin to curl, but that's okay. As it dries, remove the bottom waxed paper when possible. Place between two books or hard surfaces to flatten, but be careful not to leave moist pulpy paper too long or it will mold. Cut and mail. Be sure to explain to those you mail to the process of "planting" their xmas card in the spring! Suggestion: If you receive a seed card and don't have a place to plant it, plant it in a public park where you know it will get watered regularly by sprinklers or park personnel.
Great project for children, too.

Pokemon X
This is a split board - You can return to the Split List for other boards.
Worst Pokemon in OU?
Infernape is considered bad because
1. Rain is everywhere, hindering its Fire STAB
2. Terrakion and Keldeo are just as fast, much stronger, and aren't hindered by rain.

Infernape is considered bad because
1. So is Heatran is bad because there's rain everywhere? No. That's because freaking prepare for it! Why is Infernape any different? I mean, aside from the fact that Fire is his only good STAB. You know.... Close Combat exists.
2. Although that's true, Infernape is a mixed wallbreaker, not a sweeper like he was in Gen IV. You're comparing him to a physical sweeper and a special sweeper. Both Legendaries too, BTW.
I'm not easily impressed; I'm usually oblivious to whatever's in front of me.
Heatran has reasons to be used other than Fire STAB. Rain doesn't make it completely useless like it does Infernape.
The official rad dude of the Pokemon X board.
I use infernape's fighting attacks way more than fire attacks. he is better in doubles though because you can pair him with solar beam ninetails.

Infernape. It's the Electrivre of Gen 5.
From: Rad_Dudesman | #071
Infernape is considered bad because
infernape is nowhere near the worst. of course it pales in comparison to those two though.
i also disagree with jolteon being among the worst. dat speed gives it a unique niche as a non-scarf revenge killer/lategame cleaner on rain teams (i tend to use starmie that way too). i'm biased towards jolty tho since it's my 2nd favorite mon
btw of the many many popular and successful rain teams published in 5th gen's run, how many have had hydration vaporeon
Lakers. Black Mamba. Steve Ca$h. "Boom boom" Pau Gasol "Train." Dwight "Makes Right" Howard. we. already. won.

Block_Man_X posted...I use infernape's fighting attacks way more than fire attacks.
nape having mach punch and uturn makes it a viable alternative over terrakion for example though, depending on the team. like if i ever used a sun team CB infernape would be my preferred fighting type with CC uturn mach punch and fire blast/flare blitz. but yeah i usually go with terrakion or keldeo though
Lakers. Black Mamba. Steve Ca$h. "Boom boom" Pau Gasol "Train." Dwight "Makes Right" Howard. we. already. won.
Literally no reason to be used under any other weather (or lack thereof) other than rain, and even there it's subpar due to one useless STAB, slow speed, countered by sun, average defenses (though pretty decent if you include dry skin), and its power is lacking unless you Bulk Up. Creates far too many free turns for the opposing team.
I'd probably say Metagross at the moment.
TC, are you insane? Gengar was #1 in usage last time I checked (about a month ago).
The mystery of the beginning of all things is insoluble by us; and I for one must be content to remain an agnostic.

Anyone have an idea on how to fix the below?
background info:
- knox 0
- MJ7 stock rom but with MJ1 bootloader
- rooted
- android 4.3
- restored a bad copy file to /data/system/locksettings.db
- deleted /data/system/locksettings.db-shm
- deleted /data/system/locksettings.db-wal
- now phone boot loops; it loads to the start screen of the touchwiz launcher then immediately reboots
- i can access download mode and stock recovery mode
anyone can point in the right direction how to get this fixed while keeping knox 0 and my data intact? theoretically i would want to push back the correct 3 locksettings files into /data/system

Study Reveals How ISPs Responded to SiteFinder 172
from the routing-around-verisign dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
If it just handled a malformed url in a web browser, it would not have been a big deal. The problem is that DNS doesn't know why you want the address.I don't get the big deal with this. OK, Verisign isn't the best company on the planet (I can think of one Utah based one that's much worse, and don't get me started on Redmond...), but this is insane.
OK, so maybe they're taking a bit of traffic away from Google or someone like that. Big deal. They setup a "search engine" for people to use. People that are not like use geeks here (we know what a 404 means when we see it). I mean the other users.
For example, if you sent an email and mistyped the address, your MTA would attempt to send that email to verisign's sitefinder servers. That means that verisign had the opportunity to read a large percentage of the misaddressed email on the internet. Do you want to give them that opportunity? Would you let the publishers of a phone book (very often not the phone company) automatically listen to every call that you misdialed?
There may be room for a service like this, but it can't break existing expectations.
When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried.
