Pastel on Mi Teinte 'Tex' Paper (Cobalt) – 50cm x 35cm approx.

Made this even easier by using Trader Joe's eggplant hummus instead of making my own. With a really good naan, this dish was very satisfying. Be sure to keep the cauliflower in the oven until it's got a golden edge - sweet, spicy and juicy. Yum
The combination of cauliflower and hummus really works. I cooked the cauliflower closer to 20-25 minutes, and it was tender but crisp, with a great flavor (didn't have tumeric so used curry powder). Easy, and the kids had seconds!
I made this dish exactly as recipe stated, with the exception of toasting the bread in the oven. It was great! I do think I will add a touch of garlic to my hummus next time. Not necessary, just sounds good.
I made this for dinner last night. I cheated--using store bought hummus. I put it on lightly toasted sourdough bread. It was a breeze to put together. My husband was skeptical at first, but loved it. A keeper for sure.

Avi Hasson has found an innovative way to soothe respiratory and skin conditions in children and adults, and all his patients have to do is breathe. In June, Hasson opened NY Salt Room, Brooklyn's first salt therapy center. Also known as halotherapy, salt therapy is a natural, drug-free alternative treatment for skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and acne, and a range of respiratory ailments including asthma, allergies, bronchitis, pneumonia, and the common flu and cold.
NY Salt Room's salt chambers are coated with 10 tons of natural rock salt imported from Ukraine. Patients spend time in the rooms, inhaling dry salt aerosol. It is clinically proven that this treatment helps to reduce inflammation, loosen up mucus, and kill bacteria. Hasson believes his affordable halotherapy treatment will provide relief to the 1.1 million New Yorkers who suffer from asthma.
The children's salt room is stocked with books, toys, and games, while the adult's salt room is designed to provide a tranquil experience. "Children are getting the treatment without even being aware they are getting treated," Hasson says.
NY Salt Room also includes a day spa featuring body massage, reflexology, acupuncture, yoga, and sauna sessions. It is located at 1794 Coney Island Avenue. For more information, visit the Salt Room's business page.

A nice NV state park with clean river beaches, pet friendly, clean campground with lots of room between sites, full hookup, Verizon cell and internet out two days then back up. No monthly rates and only two week max stay. Friendly rangers and staff, nice concrete disabled sites, all sites have cover patio with picnic table and BBQ grill and fire pit. Only noise was from near roadway with Laughlin area commuters. Great sunsets and camp fires, no neighbors. Discount for NV residents and annual park pass. Will stay here again on a short visit but look for monthly discount rates available at private campgrounds. - rick&carrie
We left the campground two hours after arriving. Yes, it is a beautiful campground as other reviews stated, but we felt unsafe here. There were only two other sites occupied, and neither appeared to be a host. It looked fine when we arrived in the daylight. We set up our rig, put our money in the drop box, then found that our Verizon signal was very weak, there was no security, and cars would cruise through the campground that obviously were not here for camping. Two stopped in front of our rig and seemed to be conducting a transaction. When they left, my wife and I unhooked and left immediately (despite just finishing a long drive from the Grand Canyon) and checked in at the Avi Casino KOA. If there were more campers and a security gate with code, and a host, we would have definitely stayed. - Parrothead
I cannot add much to the previous comments. The sites are huge. The campground is about 5 miles away from the casinos and downtown Laughlin so it is pretty quiet. This is one of the nicest government campgrounds but also one of the most expensive. The $30 fee also includes the day use fee but, unless you need to launch your boat, the day use fee doesn't get you anything extra. If you are set up to dry camp, try one of the casinos. Almost all of them offer free camping in one of their parking lots in spaces set aside for RVs. - Comdac

Blacktop Boon docking. Although security past our RV that was parked against a retaining wall, they never informed us that slides weren't to be opened. After contributing more money to this casino during our second day, upon arrival to our RV we found a rules sheet taped to our door, stating slide out's weren't to be opened. We realize some of these Casino's may have problems. If we were advised of the no open slides as we set -up, we would have left immediately. Our fiver is difficult to use without the slides opened. Although we did receive a very nice baseball cap with the casino's logo, we could have saved $75.00 or more if we had checked into an RV park. - tworootless

This was used in transition to a campground in Bullhead city. At first I thought it was free when I went in to give them my information that's when they made me aware it was five dollars which I had no problem with because when you have to pay in a parking lot it keeps the riffraff out. There are people that stay in this parking lot all winter; they let you dump once a week and fill up with water. It's not a bad situation if you don't mind being on asphalt. I don't know if I would want to be here when they have an event or a gets crowded you would be packed in like sardines, but the gentleman next to me said it never gets crowded and he's been there since October so I can't answer that other than what he told me. I would not have a problem staying here again as it was very quiet. Everybody there seem to respect the generators better then some of the dry camping campgrounds I've been in, so there you have it. - monaco cruiser
Blacktop boon docking. Must unhook if longer then 40'. It is NOT FREE! You must register at the Shell Gas Station. $25.00 a week includes one dump and fresh water fill up. Or $5.00 per night which also included dump and fill. This area is at the far end off Casino Dr. Local bus service available just across the road. - tworootless
This is an asphalt parking lot adjacent to the gas station across the street from the casino. Large, marked sites are set aside for RVs. Register with the desk in the casino. It is only a parking lot but it is free. - Comdac

Internal roads are gravel, sites are fairly level, close together, and are the "Buddy" type (where 2 units use the same service pedestal and face their neighbor). The facilities worked well (water pressure seemed to be very high) and the site was satellite friendly. Staff were friendly, park WiFi worked very poorly, T-Mobile cell service was good. The park was quiet. I would rate it higher but for the very poor WiFi. We would stay here again. - KDSpree
Staff great at check in, pleasant, friendly, and professional. They have large and small sites, easy to maneuver all size rigs. Can get windy and dusty, just the location.
Seems bathrooms are slipping in the cleaning department. Toilets are OK but showers are sad. - RDRV
I was very disappointed in the park this visit. Mainly, the problem being with the wifi. In this day and age with all of the advances in technology, there is no reason that you should not be able to connect to the internet. Unfortunately that is not the case here, although when here approximately 18 months ago, we were told that the internet in the park had been upgraded. They should not advertise wifi if they cannot continually provide it. The other problem is with the decomposed granite that the park is made up of - it gets tracked all through your RV and is quite unpleasant. Finally they really need to get their security over here to address the speeding problem. My guess is that someone or their dog is going to get hit by a truck or RV given that they speed through the park. - PIMomma

Of all the casino parking sites in Laughlin, this is by far the best. It is located on the top off the bluffs opposite the Casino and has the best view of the city and the Colorado river. The sites are level and numbered and are wide enough for units with slides and toads. The lot is lit at night and security comes around regularly. As well, they have a courtesy shuttle that runs between the rv parking, the casino, the Tropicana casino and the mall. Or, if you like to walk, there is an easy walk on sidewalks from the rv park down the hill to the casino. We parked in the upper level and left our front curtain open at nights to see the lights of the strip. Remember to get your registration from security. They do check. Also, the price includes a free dump at the Tropicana when you leave. Dry camping at its best. - ladouceur58
We have parked on the upper/lower parking lot on and off during the winter months for fourteen years. We would pay the $7 a day or $35/wk for the view and security alone. The rear parking spaces are $5/day or $25/wk. There is not a bad space on the property. If you acquire enough points on your River Palms card - the site is comped. It can become quite windy and your motorhome will sway in the wind - but it is safe. We dump and get water at Harrah,s Convenience Store located about a 1/4 mile from the parking area for $5-$10 - Why anyone would want to stay elsewhere to boon dock in Laughlin is beyond our imagination.You obtain your permit from the security staff after paying at the River Palms check in desk. The staff are very friendly. The Tropicana is their sister hotel and the prices there are compatible - You can obtain water and dump at the Tropicana during your stay. - juniorfan

This is the only RV park in Laughlin with full hookups and is very affordable. We stayed a month with casino comps but I think that the daily rate is around $20 and weekly at $99. Shuttle to casino. The wifi is very expensive and not good. We used Sprint 3G which was adequate. We would normally rate this park a 9 but the cable TV was poor on network channels. - lyzzards
Older Casino RV park. Has both view lots and transit lots in a multi tiered park. Easy access for all sizes and types of RV's This park has been here a long time and is a bit worn due to heavy long time usage. It could use a little sprucing up but is adequate and close to amenities and casinos. - Old Detective
There are things in life that change, but not Don Laughlin's Riverside Resort. Yes, this is a resort if you don't mind going across the main drag to use the pool or the spa but that's not what you come to Laughlin to do. If you're looking for a site that is level, all utilities work, and you don't have to drop the trailer this RV park is for you. There are some tiers that you can back in and view the lights and action out your rear window, or drive in and see the same sights out your windshield, just ask for one. The people who are at the check-in desk are just so accommodating it's hard to believe as they treat you like you're the first customer that day. The buffets are improved (price too) as well as the ventilation in the casinos, but the slots are still tight. - poorturtle

Praveen Sattaru feels an anthology film with multiple stories is a better way to grab audience attention than making a romantic comedy without big stars
At a time when many filmmakers struggle to narrate one or two stories well enough, Praveen Sattaru is trying to engage viewers with eight stories in his forthcoming anthology film Chandamama Kathalu. "After my second film Routine Love Story, I realised that for a film with no big stars to get noticed, there has to be a 'kick factor'. I need to do something out of the box to grab attention. That's when the idea of an anthology film stuck me," he explains. Praveen wrote 12 short stories and picked eight of them that had the potential to be woven together. The writing process, from penning the short stories to locking the screenplay, took him around two months. "Some people ask me why not seven or nine stories; these eight stories lent themselves to a good drama. Nothing less or more, in my opinion, would have worked for this film. The film is only of two hours and ten minutes duration. Introducing all the characters takes about 40 minutes and there are three climaxes in the film, spanning 40 minutes," he says.
The film has an ensemble cast that includes Lakshmi Manchu (as an ex-supermodel coming to terms with the spotlight not being on her anymore), Krishnudu (as a 29-year-old trying to get hitched before reaching the scary 30 mark), Aamani and Naresh (as a middle-aged couple finding love), Chaitanya Krishna and Shamili (as teenaged students) and Kishore (as a writer penning all these characters), among others.
Working with actors in different age groups with varied perspectives was a challenge for Praveen. "I was working with a cast of 50 to 60. The toughest part was convincing some of these actors to come on board. Each of them has a screen time of about 15 – 20 minutes and was required to shoot for a day or two. So it's easy for them to dismiss it as a one-day shoot. But unlike other filmmakers who shoot many scenes and remove some of them on the edit table, I worked with a bound script and decided how many scenes were required. So once the actors were convinced about the script, their part in this anthology film, my job became easier," he says.
A few of these stories were inspired by people Praveen had observed. A character of a beggar (played by Krishneswar Rao), he says, was based on a beggar he observed at Khairatabad junction. "This elderly man, because of health issues, only begs late at night when there is no heat and less pollution. I learnt that he owns a building that he has rented out. Begging is the only thing he has done all his life and he continues to do so." Krishnudu's character, meanwhile, is reminiscent of youngsters in the 27-29 age group, anxious to get married before they hit the 30 mark and get rejected by young women. "Lakshmi, on the other hand, is a flamboyant former supermodel who smokes, drinks, curses and pretty much does all the 'bad' things. I am glad Lakshmi and Krishnudu agreed to do their parts; it's tough for me to imagine other actors in these roles," says Praveen.
The director had a tough time finding an actor to play the writer's role: "I approached many actors who either didn't want to be part of such a genre or felt the remuneration wasn't good enough. It took us a while to find Kishore."
Anthology films have been far and few in between in Telugu, but the audience has watched a handful of Hindi and English films in the format. Praveen declares he wasn't inspired by any of these films. "When I became a director, I was determined never to be inspired or, in other words, copy from other films," he says.
Praveen is an engineer who worked in the US for a decade and returned to become a director. The reason why a growing number of engineers turn to other creative pursuits, he feels, is because many join engineering out of pressure. "When I was growing up, medicine and engineering were the two prominent options. Once you are in medicine, it's tough to get out of it. But it's easier to find your way out of engineering. I remember my dad telling me not to take up architecture because very few jobs were available back then. He asked me to take up EEE and said he would help me get a government job in the power sector. I got scared and went away to the US. I liked the world exposure I got while working there. But finally, cinema is where I saw myself."
Chandamama Kathalu is expected to release mid-April.

The huge sums of money, much of it secret, pouring into elections at all levels of government will mean that such contributors -- mostly corporations and wealthy individuals with their self-serving agendas -- are succeeding in buying wins and thereby the politicians.
This trend is hugely dangerous for our country and not at all what our Founding Fathers envisioned.

Miles for Books is BACK! For the fifth year, NYRR is celebrating Read Across America by converting Mighty Milers mileage into books during the month of March. We're delighted to inspire your students to run and read through this special promotion again. New for this year, NYRR is teaming up with First Book so teachers can directly choose the titles that will benefit their students.
It's pretty simple: the more miles your students run in March, the more new books they can earn for their school or classroom library. If they run a half mile twice a week, we'll send a $75 credit for new books. If they can run more, they can earn even more!
Kids love Miles for Books because it provides them with a way they can give back to their schools. Teachers love Miles for Books because it gives them an opportunity to connect fitness and academics.
So what are you waiting for? Turn those miles into books!
In order to participate and be eligible to receive new books, Mighty Milers sites must opt in to the Miles for Books promotion by February 27, 2015. You may opt in by registering for a free First Book account with this unique link. Please use your school name as your account name, not "Mighty Milers."
First Book is an online marketplace that provides new books and classroom materials for students in need at discounts of 50-90%. If your site does not qualify for a First Book account, you may still participate by opting in through NYRR here. Schools that are not eligible to use First Book will get their rewards through a Barnes & Noble digital gift card.
(Don't have a Mighty Milers program yet? Learn more or apply here. Please note that all spots for Mighty Milers are filled through June 2015 except for schools and organizations in New York City.)
March 1 to March 31, 2015 is the "Promotion Period". All miles must be logged into STRIDES by 11:59 p.m. EST on April 3, 2015.
Award Levels
There are four (4) reward levels available: $75, $100, $150 and $500. Each reward level will be delivered as a credit to a site's First Book account or as a Barnes & Noble digital gift card. The first three reward levels will be distributed based on a site's mileage average per student during the Promotion Period, as follows:
$75 credit
To receive a $75 credit, a site's registered Mighty Milers need to average the following each week:
$100 credit
To receive a $100 credit, a site's registered Mighty Milers need to average the following each week:
$150 credit
To receive a $150 credit, a site's registered Mighty Milers need to average the following each week:
A site may qualify for only one of the above reward levels, i.e., a site entitled to $100 or $150 credit will not also be entitled to receive the lower level(s) of credits.
GRAND PRIZE: $500 credit!
Only one (1) site will receive a $500 credit. All sites that reach mileage levels qualifying for the $150 credit will be eligible to receive the highest level of a $500 credit. NYRR will contact all eligible schools via e-mail by April 10, 2015, inviting them to submit a statement by April 15 detailing how their school used the Miles for Books Promotion to motivate, increase, or enhance March running sessions and, if they wish, photos of their students running or showing enthusiasm for the promotion (the "Submission"). The selection of the site to receive the additional $350 credit, for a total of a $500 credit, will be made by a panel of senior staff of NYRR's Youth and Community Services Division, based on the panel's evaluation of all eligible sites' mileage averages and the sites' respective Submissions.
NYRR reserves the right to reject any Submission for any level of books that, in its opinion, was not properly submitted.
NYRR will alert winning sites by e-mail on or before May 1, 2015.

I have come across a few things that could take our boys to the the next level. Conductive Ed being the major one. It's truly amazing, expensive, and not local. My heart says that this is the next step for Carson and Bray.
I was looking at one location, in particular, when another location (a tad closer) popped up. Called and was informed that she traveled to you!! A sign, to me, that this was meant for us to bring in our lives. Cost, and her comfort to stay in our house?! Well, if you've seen our house...it's cozy. I lie..WE are too much for this house !!
As much as I want certain things for our boys, I have to be realistic. We are keeping in contact, and she's filling me in on things I can change to push them a bit more. I took her not being able to come here a blow, but I have to remember that it goes by His timing. .not mine.
In the meantime, I started looking up local camps. Being as we have many NOLA friends, they are filling me in on the good stuff :) Applications are filled out for a few NOLA camps, Carson is signed up for a local 2 week camp (may turn into a 4 week camp if he likes it), and he's on the list to be evaluated for another 2 week camp. And, these camps aren't all fun and games...they incorporate therapy and hard work.
Between camps, ESY, and our planned vaca. .I'm looking forward to this summer.
What about Bray?! Well, little man is a tad young for those camps, but I am looking for him :) And, while BIG bro is out doing his thing...we'll have adventures of our own. Plus, he will be doing ESY, as well :)

Experiment Shows What Happens When You Repost a Photo to Instagram 90 Times
Every time you post a photo to Instagram, it loses a tiny bit of quality. It's not really noticeable for a single upload, but if you save and repost the photo over and over, the quality loss becomes extreme. It's a concept known as "generation loss," and is the subject of artist Pete Ashton's project "I Am Sitting In Stagram (2015)."

Photo Booths In Japan Will Quietly Retouch Your Face to Fix Your 'Flaws'
In Japan, purikura refers to a photo booth in which you can pose for a photo with friends and decorate the portraits before receiving little printed versions.
One interesting thing that sets many of these machines apart from their Western world counterparts is the fact that they will quietly do beauty retouching on photos in an attempt to fix subjects' facial "flaws."

Gun Cam: A Camera Drone Weaponized with Roman Candle Fireworks
Here's something else to file under "Strange things people are doing with camera drones": PIEROGRAM was staying at a cottage with a friend this past summer when, after a few beers, the two decided to mount some roman candle fireworks to the drone to create a first person gunship type of game. The two had a blast, but it's probably not the brightest idea. (Warning: there's some strong language).
P.S. If this type of experiment is up your alley, be sure to check out the Star Wars-style drone racing project we featured last year.

Using Cigarettes to Connect with Strangers in SF
I visit San Francisco often to walk the streets with camera in hand, hoping to capture life as it happens. Invariably I am asked for change and/or a cigarette. For the most part I try to be generous, but as a non-smoker I'm not able to oblige. I then wondered what would happen if the situation was reversed: instead of being asked for a cigarette I would offer them to random people from all walks of life.

The Gophers announced Tuesday a home-and-home series with Texas Christian in football for the 2014 and 2015 seasons. A nice component of the deal -- aside from the fact that TCU is in the Big 12 and gives the Gophers a BCS opponent that year -- is that TCU is paying the Gophers $500,000 to play the game at TCU in 2014, while Minnesota pays zip for the return home game in 2015. TCU is also taking over the South Dakota State contract -- the game Minnesota replaced in 2015 -- meaning the Gophers aren't on the hook for the $400K buyout of that game.
After a public relations nightmare in October, when the Gophers canceled two games with North Carolina and paid $800,000 in the process, this is a piece of good news that takes much of the edge off that debacle. That said, now Minnesota is playing a Texas school. With that comes plenty of football pride ... and at least one member of the press who doesn't think much of Gophers football.
From Mac Engel of the Star-Telegram:
Show of hands who knew Minnesota has a football team?
That's how it starts. ZING! Granted, the Gophers have wallowed in mediocrity for the last, um, half-century or so. But it's a Big Ten team. The joke doesn't work. But maybe a weather joke will work?
TCU will host the Golden Gophers on Sept. 13, 2014. It will play at Minny on Sept. 3, 2015. (BTW - The Twin Cities are a perfect place to visit in the summer months. U of M is a great campus. There is a lot to do up there, and the weather is usually fantastic in September - the snow doesn't fall until around September 23rd.)
Yes! Never mind that TCU plays in the sweaty concrete wasteland of Ft. Worth and just dive right in.
When Engel sticks to the facts, it's hard to argue with his premise: TCU's Gary Patterson (right) is a master at scheduling lesser BCS foes to make a non-conference schedule look better than it really is. Right now, the Gophers are a bottom-third program in the Big Ten.
The Horned Frogs are new to this BCS business, having moved from the Mountain West just a year ago, but give them credit for recent back-to-back big-time bowl bids and a win over Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl following the 2009 season.
This past season? They had a losing record in the Big 12 and fell to Michigan State in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl. So let's not pretend TCU is Alabama.
Engel ends his piece like this:
Basically, this is like adding another Kansas to the schedule. As any good coach knows, you can never play Kansas enough.
TCU defeated Kansas 20-6 in 2012, and historically we can find some parallel between Minnesota and Kansas football. But there is this: Kansas was 1-11 in 2012. Minnesota won six games and at least went to a bowl game. If it is possible to undersell Gophers football -- which is hard to do -- Mac has done it.

Getting To The 200th win Is The Goal For The No. 11 Team And Hendrick Motorsports
Wins mean a lot in NASCAR especially if it's a milestone win. For The No.11 team and for Hendrick Motorsports getting that 200th win will mean the most.
Since the 2011 season Hendrick Motorsports has been in the quest for their 200th Sprint Cup win. Their last win came when Jimmie Johnson won the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas back in October.
For the No.11 team and Denny Hamlin getting the 200th win in the 11 car sets an important milestone for the most winning car in NASCAR. Hamlin has won two races this season so far, with his last one being at Kansas.
Both Hamlin and Hendrick Motorsports got their last wins at Kansas and both are looking for that milestone win. Talladega is their next opportunity, with the Hendrick drivers having a better chance at a win than Hamlin.
Heading into Talladega Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt Jr have won at the track many times. Gordon has an average finish of 16.3 with Johnson averaging 16.9 and Dale Jr with a 15.0. Kasey Kahne's average finish is just outside the top 20 with a 21.9.
Hamlin's average finish at Talladega is a 17.8 with his best finish being fourth. He accomplished it twice back in the 2007 fall race and the 2010 spring race.
Heading into Talladega the odds favor Hendrick Motorsports but Denny Hamlin isn't that far behind. Hamlin has contended for Top Ten finishes as of late but Dale Jr has been there as well. Dale Jr heads into Talladega as a favorite to win and hoping to end a long streak since his last win.

Psychiatric nurses (RN) provide specialized care to individuals with mental disorders. They may be home care nurses or work in mental health facilities or psychiatric hospitals, working with individuals, groups, and loved ones. Some psychiatric nurses specialize in a specific area of expertise based on age and/or disorder. Depending on their employer, the psychiatric nurse may need to diagnosis illness, start a treatment plan for the patient, maintain health records, and help find therapeutic ways for the patient to manage their mental illness. In addition, most nurses provide information to patients and their loved ones, help prepare patients for therapy, and deliver community education.Read More...
Psychiatric nurses' shifts may vary depending on the needs of their institution and their specific position; this may include days, nights, weekends, and/or holidays. Some nurses may have patients with violent episodes and must be physically able to restrain them without injuring themselves or patients. They also need to be able to understand patients' needs, be patient, have good communication skills, and be able to work well under pressure. Additionally, psychiatric nurses also need to be able to explain information and issues effectively to family, friends, and the community when explaining mental illness-related issues.
Psychiatric nurses (RN) must be registered nurses, which requires a minimum of an associate's degree in nursing and relevant certification; however, additional education (such as a bachelor's or master's degree) may be preferred or required as well. In addition, relevant experience may be needed or preferred. Generally, these nurses receive on-the-job training related to the specific needs and policies of their position.
Psychiatric Nurses generally report applying a varied skill set to their work. Most notably, skills in Psychiatric, Geriatrics, Medicine / Surgery, and Acute Care are correlated to pay that is above average. It is often found that people who know Geriatrics are also skilled in Acute Care.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For many Psychiatric Nurses, extensive experience does not lead to significantly more money. The average worker who claims fewer than five years of experience earns around $54K. In contrast, however, individuals who report five to 10 years in this occupation see a much larger median of $61K. After working for 10 to 20 years, Psychiatric Nurses make a median salary of $64K. As Psychiatric Nurses reach more than two decades on the job, compensation remains commensurate with experience; the average pay in this group is $67K.

We spent three days here and had no complaints at all. The staff were fantastic, the food was good enough for us to return for meals even when we stayed elsewhere. Very good value for money and it is worth choosing the top-end menu for about 25 Euros, I doubt that you'll regret it. The menu Etap at 15 Euros is a case of you get what you pay for. Their rice pudding (cold) is utterly scrummy and their cheese course offers a good selection.
The restaurant is closed on Sunday nights but there is a pizza place just a building or two from the hotel which served the best pizza we have ever eaten. Unfortunately I can't remember what it's called, but it's visually unmissable and hotel staff will point you in the right direction.
If staying at the hotel on a Sunday night the staff will make sure that you have a code for the door so that you can come and go as you please (the told us no less than 4 times!). There are no staff on duty on a Sunday night, so a spur of the moment stay on a Sunday night is out of the question. Similarly, if you plan to return late, make sure you have the code. If for any reason they don't give you the code when you check-in, ask for it anyway. Also, if you're a smoker you will need the code if you want to nip out for a cigarette at the crack of dawn before anyone is on duty.
Although breakfasts are buffet style and the coffee is from a machine, it was perfectly adequate. I agree with the reviewer who said that the croissants let the side down, but being aware that they're not the best we just had other things that were on offer. Other than that, breakfast was absolutely fine with no shortage of choice. Even at the crack of dawn the staff were cheery!
If it is any testimony to the food, it was pretty much full every evening with locals and visitors alike and meals can be eaten on the terrace.
Rooms are very simply furnished but perfectly comfortable and adequate.
Oh! And if you lose the wi-fi signal just mention it to one of the staff and ask them to check that the plug hasn't been pulled out. They're a super bunch of people.

NAFCU Hails FHFA Decision to Keep Debt-to-Income Ratio, Loan Limits for Fannie, Freddie
Washington (May 13, 2014) - The National Association of Federal Credit Unions (NAFCU) hailed Federal Housing Finance Agency's (FHFA) Director Mel Watt's announcement today that his agency plans to keep its policy of allowing debt-to-income ratios above 43 percent for some loans purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Watt also stated that FHFA will not reduce the current limits on the size of loans that can be purchased by the GSEs.
"NAFCU thanks Director Watt and his agency for listening to concerns raised by NAFCU and its member credit unions about the need for flexibility in providing mortgages and to avoid unnecessary changes that could disrupt the housing market," said Carrie Hunt, NAFCU's senior vice president of government affairs and general counsel.
Watt also said FHFA will seek comments on guarantee fee increases. NAFCU urged that the hikes set to take effect earlier this year be withdrawn, and Watt postponed them pending further review.
NAFCU met with Watt last month and raised these issues with him, that the agency should not increase the guarantee fees and not decrease the conforming loan limits.
The National Association of Federal Credit Unions is the only national organization that focuses exclusively on federal issues affecting credit unions, representing its members before the federal government and the public.

Novak Djokovic has married his long-time and pregnant fiancée Jelena Ristic in a private ceremony at Sveti Stefan in Montenegro on July 10.
The wedding was held under a marble done that was reportedly built for the occasion, Serbian press Blic Online reported. The ceremony was quick. It started at 6 o'clock and lasted for only 30 minutes. A church wedding is expected to take place on July 12.
Contrary to initial reports claiming that Andy Murray will be Djokovic's best man, his childhood friend and Serbian footballer Servet Neven Markovic served as his best man. Among the guests include Maria Sharapova, Victor Troicki, Nenad Zimonjic, and Janko Tipsarevic. Djokovic's coach Boris Becker made sure he would not miss the event, who came with his wife Lilly. The Serbian's conditioning coach Gebhard Phil Gri and wife were also in attendance.
Strict security was implemented during the ceremony. According to reports, there were police officers patrolling the area via speedboats. The guests, who reportedly arrived in black limousines, had to get past private security just to get to the main site of the ceremony.
Recently, it has been reported that the British magazine Hello has paid half a million for the exclusive rights of the photos from the wedding and that the money will go to charity. Blic Online has obtained some exclusive snaps here.
Djokovic and Ristic have met while they were still in high school. Djokovic and Ristic have been together for eight years. They got engaged in September 2013.
Ristic is six months pregnant now and expecting a baby boy, The Epoch Times reported.
Prior the wedding, Djokovic told the Daily Mail that they were blissful for the "new chapter in their lives." He even reportedly asked Roger Federer for some parental advice.
"For us, it's a new chapter of our lives," said Djokovic.
"We're full of joy."

SSDI: Time for Reform
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
This article appeared on on August 11, 2014.
The just-released Social Security Trustees' annual report projects that Social Security's Disability Insurance (SSDI) component will become insolvent sometime during 2016 — leaving not much time for reform deliberations. Recent instances of SSDI fraud have concentrated the minds of lawmakers in Congress. Beyond combating SSDI fraud, however, Congress can use this opportunity to adopt sensible SSDI reforms to improve the lives of individuals with disabilities.
Evidence of behind-the-scene activity on Capitol Hill on SSDI reforms is beginning to emerge. Based on recent Congressional hearings, lawmakers appear highly dissatisfied with how the SSDI program is working. Many are focused on combating SSDI fraud but appear reluctant to adopt more comprehensive reforms.
A few facts on SSDI:
Beneficiaries currently number 11 million and the system admits about 1 million new beneficiaries into the program each year. Current annual SSDI expenditures run at $140 billion. Most significantly, enrollments have consistently exceeded the agency's projections during the last several years, suggesting strong incentives among those with medical impairments to quit work and apply for SSDI benefits.
SSDI applicants must provide evidence of a medical impairment that prevents work above the Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) level of earnings — currently $1,070 per month — one that is expected to last for at least 12 months or result in death. This condition means a decision to apply for SSDI compels exit from the work-force.
"Evidence from the last several recession episodes shows that such enrollment surges were not reversed during the last three recessions once the economy recovered and unemployment abated."
The existence of a qualifying medical impairment is judged according to "medical listings" — severity of medical conditions that applicants must "meet or equal." Failing that, applicants may still be admitted to the program for demographic and vocational reasons such as age, education, job skills, job availability in the applicant's occupation or other occupations, and so on. These criteria induce SSDI applications and allowances to accelerate during recessions.
Evidence from the last several recession episodes shows that such enrollment surges were not reversed during the last three recessions once the economy recovered and unemployment abated. This despite no increase in the population's share of those with medical impairments, improved technology in assistive devices, and an improved legal environment for accommodating those with medical impairments in the workplace.
Once allowed onto the program, many beneficiaries are reluctant to return to work for fear of losing SSDI's cash benefits and eligibility to low-cost Medicare coverage — trapping those with residual work capacities and those who could adapt to their impairments and resume work into a state of government dependency.
The majority of applications are professionally represented and representatives appear to be increasingly adept at exploiting SSDI's procedural nuances to increase allowance success rates. State and local governments have also increased efforts to enroll into SSDI those dependent on state welfare programs to reduce or offset state budget expenditures.
Many observers claim that Social Security agency officials — case examiners, administrative law judges (ALJ), legal assistants, decision writers, appellate personnel, and others are highly diligent at performing their jobs. Nevertheless, statistical analysis of decision patterns suggests a systematic bias toward allowing undeserving applicants onto the program.
Moreover, recent widely reported incidents of fraud by applicant representatives, ALJs, and medical practitioners have heightened suspicions that those were not isolated incidents. Fraud in combination with shortcomings in SSDI's disability determination procedures may explain a large portion of the secular surge in SSDI enrollments. According to Sen. Tom Coburn's (R-Okla.) investigations into SSDI allowance patterns: "What we found is 25% of the cases should never have been approved for benefits based on Social Security's own rules and procedures. So, we had 25% where their own administrating law agents didn't follow their own rules."
Congress seems unlikely to repair SSDI's financial shortfall by adopting politically unpopular measures: Benefit cuts and payroll tax increases. But strengthening measures to combat SSDI fraud may receive bipartisan support. For example, the House Ways and Means Subcommittee on Social Security Chairman Sam Johnson (R-Texas), recently introduced H.R. 5260, the Stop Disability Fraud Act of 2014. This bill would expand SSDI anti-fraud investigation units, increase penalties for committing SSDI fraud, strengthen licensing requirements for medical practitioners and applicant representatives, and require expanded and more frequent information collection and reporting by the Social Security Administration to facilitate closer oversight by lawmakers.
As positive as these steps are, Congress needs to go further. Evidence accumulated since the early 1980s indicates increasing uncertainty and difficulty in making disability determinations — because of improving population health, better technology, greater legal recourse when competing for jobs, better access to public amenities, and improved social attitudes favoring independence, self-determination, and community participation by individuals with disabilities.
Failure by Congress to adopt workable programmatic reforms to SSDI to more strongly encourage return to work by beneficiaries and to assist workers to remain employed despite health obstacles would be a tragic missed opportunity.

The Epiphone EJ200CE Electro-Acoustic Guitar is Epiphone's version of a Gibson classic, the guitar you've seen in the hands of everyone from Elvis to Emmylou. The EJ200CE features a super jumbo maple body with select spruce top, moustache bridge, gold hardware, and royal crown inlays over a smooth rosewood fingerboard. Beautiful to behold, it has huge sound that is easily amplified with the extremely versatile Shadow NanoFlex pickup.
Built from tradition, the Epiphone EJ-200CE is carefully crafted with a solid spruce top, on a big, crisp-sounding super jumbo maple body, offering beautiful tonal integrity and impressive dynamic range. Maple provides a very bright tonal variety with plenty of bite and sustain to stand up to any type of musical genres.
Using a maple neck, the EJ200 offers a smooth, comfortable playing experience, while still being a very strong and durable wood choice. A rosewood fingerboard compliments the neck perfectly, providing sleek transitions from chords and notes, all the way down the elegant maple neck. Also featuring unique crown inlays, the fingerboard adds a touch more sophistication to this beautiful instrument.
Electronics & Hardware
Complete with revolutionary Shadow NanoFlex and Shadow NanoMag pickups, the Epiphone EJ200CE provides precise tonal fidelity and superior vibration transfer, giving the guitar an unrivalled electric sound and tone. Capturing a wider, more balanced frequency range, and stunning harmonics, it's clear to see why Epiphone have chosen to use Shadow Innovation.
Controlling the electronics is the eSonic2 preamp system, allowing you to carefully adjust the tone and volume of the two Shadow pickups. It also features a phase switch, (or 'anti-feedback' switch), EQ knobs and a handy built-in tuner, giving you more control and versatility than ever before.
Other features on the EJ200CE include a rosewood 'moustache' bridge, providing great string tension and sustain, a famous flower motif pickguard adding to the authentic design, and six dependable gold-plated Grover tuners in a 3-a-side formation, providing fantastic precision when tuning up.

Incredible guitar. I am a novice guitarist, however the cheaper guitars I have purchased have made me sound worse! This guitar is top quality, nothing has been spared in production and it shows. It looks incredible, the shape is fantastic, although I was a little worried about it being 'Super Jumbo'. I can comfortably play this guitar and the size hasn't been an issue. The sound it produces is immense. Such a great buy. Dawsons were fantastic and the experience overall would convince me to buy again.

My local music store has the Gibson J-200 which I fell in love with upon seeing it, and loved playing. Without nearly 3 grand in my back pocket, I researched this Epiphone copy, other sites reviews and Youtube demos. I was very impressed so bought it. I've played both the Gibson and Epiphone side by side and can hardly tell the difference. To the highly trained ear there will be, and on a huge PA system the quality will shine through, but other than that this is a seriously quality guitar at an absolute bargain that will turn heads when you take it out of its case.

Bought this guitar on the strength of reviews and I have to say apart from it being an absolute bargain I love it. I just play for fun can hardly put a tune together but I just love the tones of this guitar they just ring out long after you have played the note. The feel and the finish is fantastic as an amateur I would highly recommend this guitar. I've yet to try the pick up as it came with no battery but there's plenty going on with it. Summing up for the £299 I paid for it it's an absolute steal an excellent guitar for the money. Go out and try one..
Very nice looking guitar

Went into Dawsons in Chester leaning more towards a Hummingbird, however this baby just seduced me straight from the rack on looks alone initially, (I feel it's definitely got the edge on black and tobacco finishes). Lovely finish and build quality for the money. Warm sound with fantastic sustain as it resonates throughout its ample body. Definitely a guitar to own and cherish - particularly if you're something of a jumbo prefer-er. If you're not, try one anyway, you'll be converted! Top marks to Dawsons too and especially Carl who was welcoming and patient as I noodled not once but twice and even three times with different guitars before I made up my mind.

Got myself one 17 years ago. We have been all over the UK & Europe and it as never let me down. From the beaches of the south of France and Spain up to the north of Sweden and Norway, no problems I just kept it tuned, kept it clean and used it well. Every one should have one at some time in their lives.

Outstanding guitar! I had my eye on this for sometime but nowhere local could get me one for months. Contacted Dawsons who got me one out in a matter of days!
I would recommend this to anyone, it has a fantastic sound, an immaculate appearance and really stands out from other guitars out there in a similar price bracket - I wouldn't be without my EJ200 CE now!

At this year's Regatta, over 400 people will meet at the St Johns Launch on Sunday, August 2nd to launch into the safe slack water of the Columbia Slough.

Participants will be able to paddle west to the Ramsey Wetland area or east along Smith & Bybee Wetlands. Wildlife in this area includes otters, bald eagles, deer, and juvenile salmon.
Individuals and families are welcome to bring their own boat anytime from 9am to 1pm, or to reserve a complimentary 45-minute rental. Other activities include community information, paddling safety information, face painting, food for purchase, and free t-shirts. A $8 suggested donation helps to support the Council's education, restoration, and recreation programs within the watershed.
