Cyprus May Be The First Nation To Steal Bank Deposits, But It Won't Be The Last
When a nation is on the verge of having its credit cut off because it's spent more than it's taken in for a long, long time, it may be willing to take some truly desperate measures to stay afloat.
Cyprus took the unprecedented step on Monday of closing its banks until Thursday as officials scrambled to renegotiate the terms of a controversial bailout that threatens to force savers to take a €5.8bn (:£5bn) hit to their deposits.
Finance ministers from the 17-country eurozone held an emergency video conference call and concluded that small depositors should not be hit as hard as others. They said the Cypriot authorities could stagger the deposit seizures, but remained firm in demanding that the overall sum of money raised remained the same. Cyprus state media said accounts with less than €20,000 may be spared.
…The European Central Bank's Jörg Asmussen, who had played a part in negotiating the terms, insisted it was up to Cyprus to alter the way the €5.8bn was raised from bank accounts. The levy was initially set at 6.75% on accounts under €100,000 and 9.9% on any deposit above that sum but this could be altered to 3% on the smaller deposits and up to 15% on deposits above €500,000. In return, savers will be given shares in the banks and, potentially, returns from the country's gas reserves. "The important thing is that the financial contribution of €5.8bn remains," Asmussen said. He also denied responsibility for designing the levy. "I want to emphasise that it wasn't the ECB that pushed for this special structure of the contribution which has now been chosen," he said.
Pensions are also being threatened.
Cyprus considered nationalizing pension funds and ordered banks to stay shut till next week to avert financial chaos after it rejected the terms of a European Union bailout and turned to Russia for aid.
Crisis talks among the political leadership in Nicosia are set to resume on Thursday after late-night meetings to discuss a "Plan B" broke up on Wednesday without result.
EU officials voiced frustration but little sympathy for an ambitious but now bust banking system that extended itself well beyond the island; Russia, whose citizens have billions to lose in those Cypriot banks, called the EU a "bull in a china shop".
People look at a tiny country like Cyprus and think it couldn't happen here.
Folks, not only could it happen here, it would be much, much worse because unlike Cyprus, we're too big to bail out. When our backs are up against the wall, nobody will be able to bail us out. So when we get to that point, the pension funds and accumulated wealth of Americans may start looking very tempting to the politicians in D.C.
Sure, it may be illegal for them to seize it and sure, it may be nothing more than theft when you get right down to it, but desperate governments do desperate things. Just ask Cyprus.

Wanting to brew a kolsch, blond or cream. Been using lactic acid to adjust mash pH. Wondering if salts would benefit pH lowering prior to adding any lactic. Or should I dilute with distilled or spring water, or boil out some of the temp hardness? Any advice will be appreciated since I do not fully understand water chemistry. I have noticed some astringency in some of my pales and IPAs which seems to dissipate with time and cold conditioning.

Looks to me your water is super soft. That's good for lighter beers like you describe, afaic. Your pH is SUPER high, though. "Normal" water is around 7-8.
I'd first bring your pH down by diluting with water, then use pH5.2 stabilizer to bring the pH down without adding any extra salts.
My 2cents.
~~ Malted barley wants to become beer. ~~
and now for my 2 cents. use CaCl2 to bring your mash pH down. I really like this sheet from palmer's sight. http://www.howtobrew.com/images/f83.pdf
I have read nothing but good things about having Ca in your mash, boil, and ferment. read palmers sight and use CaCl2 to adjust your pH. If your Chloride level starts to get to high replace some of the CaCl2 with CaSO4.
Starting with soft water and relatively lower amounts of all the important ions, you're sitting in pretty good shape in that you can add pretty much whichever salts you want to match whichever water profile you want (or at least with little dilution).
The MOST IMPORTANT part is getting the mash pH down around 5.2-5.4. Adding enough lactic acid to achieve that might give your brew a sour taste, though, since you're starting around 9 with your base water. So, like squiggy said, you can bring it down with CaCl2 or gypsum, if you don't mind the ion contents changing.
I use this often (in conjuction with brewater 3.0):http://howtobrew.com/section3/Palmers_Mash_RA_ver2b.xls for standardhttp://howtobrew.com/section3/Palmer...c_RA_ver2b.xls for metric
+1 on CaCl2 or gypsum
Thanks everyone for the input, I think I'll end up diluting(1pt tap:2pt dist) and then adding some gypsum(what I have on hand) for my upcoming kolsch using the palmer spreadsheet to calculate amounts. I'm sure I'll pick up some calcium chloride when I'm at Things Beer for the cream, blonde or wheat coming up next. I'm trying out the WLP080 Cream Ale Blend on a few similar styles.


text: Medicines http://www.mdpi.com/journal/medicines Latest open access articles published in Medicines at http://www.mdpi.com/journal/medicines http://www.mdpi.com/2305-6320/2/1/28 Tajikistan is a small country located in Central Asia. The mostly mountainous terrain with a continental, subtropical, and semiarid climate, is characterized by diverse flora. Many people in Tajikistan rely on medicinal plants as their traditional form of medicine to prevent and cure health disorders. Aromatic medicinal plants, in particular, have played an important role for the local people. In this review, we present a summary of the uses of 18 aromatic medicinal plants from Tajikistan and their compositions of secondary metabolites. Medicines 2015-02-17 2 1 Review 10.3390/medicines2010028 28 46 2305-6320 2015-02-17 doi: 10.3390/medicines2010028 Farukh Sharopov Hanjing Zhang Michael Wink William Setzer http://www.mdpi.com/2305-6320/2/1/11 Background: Whether acupuncture treatment employing multiple penetrating, skin-touch placebo, or no-touch placebo needles designed for double blinding actually do blind practitioners and patients has not been investigated. We aimed to investigate this question. Subjects: 120 patients with functional neck/shoulder stiffness but in otherwise healthy condition were randomly assigned to a treatment using four penetrating, four skin-touch placebo, or four no-touch placebo needles. Each of six acupuncturists applied four needles to four acupoints in the neck/shoulder of 20 patients. Acupuncturists and patients were asked to guess the treatment mode and their confidence in their guesses on 100 mm visual analog scales. Results: The kappa coefficients between practitioner guesses and treatment type and between patient guesses and treatment type were 0.15 and 0.44, respectively. The median score of practitioner confidence was 46.8, and no significant difference in confidence between correct and incorrect guesses was revealed for any treatment. The median score of patient confidence for correct guesses was 77.6. The kappa coefficient between practitioner and patient guesses was 0.06. Conclusions: The practitioners were blinded to the nature of treatment using the same multiple needles, but patient blinding was insufficient. Further improvement is necessary to achieve satisfactory patient blinding with these acupuncture needles.

The network comprises many partners from China and is highly involved in research and publication activities. This report introduces the network's activities in the year 2014.

Meridians are thought to regulate body function through the normal flow of qi and/or blood. Disturbances in this flow are thought to cause disease, and acupuncture techniques are believed to cure disease by regulating this flow. However, it is still difficult to understand the exact meaning of qi and to evaluate the activation of meridians. Thus, more and more attention has been focused on the relationship of acupuncture and circulation. Methods: In this narrative review, the authors focus on the state of the art in acupoint activation, microcirculation response, and on investigation of mast cells, based on current literature research. Results: Altogether, 52 references are cited and discussed critically. A schematic diagram of the relationship between acupuncture stimulation, changes of microcirculation and mast cells is presented as result. Conclusion: The block diagram presented in this review article shows that mast cells might play an important role in circulation response after acupoint stimulation.

In addition, the extracts were screened for cytotoxic activity against BALB/c mouse macrophages in order to assess a selectivity index. Crude extracts that showed a selectivity index (CC50 for macrophage / IC50 for promastigotes) ³ 5 or with IC50 < 12.5 μg/mL against promastigotes, a total of 28 extracts, were further screened for anti-amastigote activity. A total of 25 extracts showed promising activity against L. amazonensis promastigotes with low cytotoxic activity. Ten of these extracts showed selectivity indices, (CC50 for macrophages / IC50 for amastigotes) greater than 10 and are considered "hits", worthy candidates for further phytochemical exploration: Conostegia xalapensis methanol bark extract, Endiandra palmerstonii bark extract, Eugenia monteverdensis acetone bark extract, Eugenia sp. "fine leaf" acetone bark extract, Exothea paniculata chloroform bark extract, Mallotus paniculatus ethanol bark extract, Matelea pseudobarbata ethanol extract, Quercus insignis ethanol bark extract, Sassafras albidum dichloromethane bark extract, and Stemmadenia donnell-smithii acetone bark extract.

Methods: Electrodermal activity was measured in 20 patients before and after two different non-surgical treatments of a completely ruptured anterior cruciate ligament. The first treatment, RegentK, was developed by Mohamed Khalifa, the second is a standard physiotherapy. Results: The patients in the two groups were age-matched, and all demographic data showed no significant differences. It was interesting that electrodermal activity was significantly decreased only after RegentK. Conclusion: We conclude that not only local effects of pressure application are responsible for these results, rather as yet unknown neurovegetative mechanisms have to be taken into consideration. Medicines 2014-09-30 1 1 Article 10.3390/medicines1010022 22 31 2305-6320 2014-09-30 doi: 10.3390/medicines1010022 Gerhard Litscher Daniela Litscher Michael Ofner Ingrid Gaischek Daniela-Eugenia Malliga http://www.mdpi.com/2305-6320/1/1/12 Acute skin surface temperature effects on the knee were investigated after a manual therapy developed by Mohamed Khalifa (RegentK) compared to standard physiotherapy in patients with completely ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Twenty patients participated in this study. They were randomly assigned to group A (receiving RegentK) or group B (physiotherapy). Each group consisted of 10 patients. Temperature values were registered on four spots (three on the knee, one on the foot) of the injured and the healthy leg (control). Skin temperature increased significantly after RegentK on all sites of the injured leg, but after physiotherapy only the measurement spots on the knee showed significant increases. After RegentK the temperature had also increased significantly on the control leg, whereas in group B, the results were not significant. Experimental and clinical testing of technical equipment, e.g., infrared thermography, for ACL injuries is important for a better understanding of the different physiological/pathophysiological mechanisms underlying different therapy approaches.

A comparison of blueberry leaf extracts from different cultivars and seasonal variation were investigated regarding their effects on ATL cell line proliferation. The inhibitory effects of 80% ethanol leaf extracts from different blueberry cultivars collected from April to December in 2006 or 2008 were evaluated using two ATL cell lines. The bioactivities of leaf extracts of rabbit-eye blueberry (Vaccinium virgatum Aiton; RB species), southern highbush blueberry (V. spp.; SB species), northern highbush blueberry (V. corymbosum L.; NB species), and wild blueberry (V. bracteatum Thunb.; WB species) were compared. Of these, leaves of the RB species collected in December showed a significantly stronger inhibitory effect in both cell lines than the SB, NB, or WB species. These results suggest elevated biosynthesis of ATL-preventative bioactive compounds in the leaves of the RB species before the defoliation season.

Don't you mean DMSO?
The controllers for guitar games are kind of lame.....
I'd like to see a real instrument as a controller, with wired frets etc; that way you could practice while playing the game, and actually learn something while gaming.
Ken Macleod's The Night Sessions deals with AIs and religion, and it's a bit unnerving, because the AIs in the book interpret scripture in ways that are clearly at variance with what was expected by those proselytizing to those AIs. It tacitly makes the point that no one can really identify an AI's motivations, as they're inherently different from human minds and consequently have drives of which we're not necessarily aware.
(plus it's a rollicking good read - all of Macleod's SF work is)
Yep. I have had to fight with them on so many levels, in both personal and professional settings; they were bad actors. They've brought regulation on themslelves because they've done bad things and then they've tried to shut down discussion of the issue while stonewalling any form of redress. I can't wait for them to become a utility, as in France, where the speeds to the curb are a damn sight faster than here in the Valley....
...and painters and interior decorators often need to be represented by a licensed contractor.
LIcensing is a relatively low-impact way of vetting businesses - a business that lacks certification often will cut corners elsewhere as well.
Typical libertarian 'the market will decide' twaddle. What they miss is that by the time the market decides - if it does, which is somewhat of a gamble - real harms will already have been done, and redress may not be possible.
Naah, the 1%-libertarians would just whine that the regulation that doesn't allow you to poison others without sanction constitutes prior restraint.
Comcast will suddenly get religion and actually start providing the speeds they advertise....
Even if Boeing stopped building 747 variants tomorrow, they'd be around for ages. They're the mainstay for long-haul travel, and dwindling sales probably are more related to market saturation - as in, there are enough in the air now to meet current demand - than any inherent shortcoming in the design.
I suspect that there are more refinements to come - it's just too useful an airframe to discard. It may take Boeing a bit to roll in some of the working dreamliner tech but it seems reasonable that they'd try to do that when time and demand permit.
SharkNebula, now on SyFy!
I'd like to see it happen - it really would make a difference in the world bc it changes cost structures and allows more people to get in the game, esp in poor countries.
I've been running Linux on portable systems since it was released, and it's good. Unfortunately, it doesn't do the same sort of vertical hardware integration as, for example, Apple, so people don't see immediate refresh from hibernation right out of the box, and so think it is deficient or not as advanced. That's unfortunate, and a lot of it is the result of people building optional functionality but a lack of consensus regarding which packages and functionality should be included right out of the gate for a consumer system. With a variety of packages for what users now expect enabled on a commodity PC, it'll do just fine......
Yeah, mostly it works but on the off chance it doesn't....well, I'd lose the ability to work for certain (SA who lives at terminals).
> You may have heard of the concept of volunteering, people spending many hours every week doing unpaid work. In those cases, money is obviously not a motivation because they are possessed of sufficient income provided by their own work, a pension fund, investment account, or other means of income to cover their basic needs .
If working full-time pays so little that a person cannot meet essential basic needs, I respectfully suggest that there's a disconnect. All the human dignity in the world doesn't make a person full when they're hungry, and to implicitly state that the dignity of full-time employ should cancel out deprivation from income inequality fails to take into account the costs associated with being poor - like not being able to buy items in bulk at low unit costs due to lack of liquid cash, or time losses from using the US' grossly inadequate public transport infrastructure to travel to/from work and appointments, to name two.

Procter & Gamble is extending its commitment to a more sustainable supply chain by becoming one of the first large shippers to convert a significant percentage of its for-hire truck loads to natural gas.
Beginning in July 2013, P&G will work with eight transportation carriers to convert up to 20% of its North America truck load shipments to natural gas vehicles within two years.
By meeting this goal, it is expected P&G will incur savings for the converted lanes and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by nearly 5,000 metric tons (or the equivalent GHG emissions from 1,000 passenger vehicles for a year).
P&G's commitment to the carriers will convert approximately 7% of the company's North America for-hire transportation network to natural gas-powered trucks during the initial phase.
This will be delivered in 16 states with an average length of haul over 280 miles, including two 1,000 mile truck lanes.
We offer e-newsletters that deliver targeted news and information for the entire fleet industry.

I'm from Houston and love it (when it's not summertime). I like Dallas quite a bit, too, even though I tend to get lost there if I'm not going to one of a handful of places I have been. Dallas strikes a different sort of traffic fear in my than most places. I digress. To get back on topic, none of those Dallas bars listed are douchey as far as my experience goes.

Community Brewing literally opened up last weekend. Very solid Pale Ale but not sure how widespread their beer is yet.
My favorite beer place by far is the Gingerman and, really the only place for growler fills is Craft and Growler. Lots of Texas beers on draft. Definitely check out Meddlesome Moth and Common Table too. And +1 on Velvet Hammer and Deep Ellum IPA.
Beer is the center of everything. Everything revolves around beer. When you drink beer, everything revolves. Therefore beer is the center of everything.

Thanks guys. That gives me some ideas. I'll only be down for three days and will be pretty busy, but I hope to sneak out for a few beers and take some decent bottles home. It'll just be nice to have a few warm days. It was 22 below here last night!

This quilt has been on the design wall for months!
After sewing 4 rows, I decided I was NOT a hexi girl . . . have you ever sewed hexi rows together? not. fun.
Then I discovered this pattern:
believe it or not, adding the white strip in the middle is much easier than sewing hexies together.
Then, I decided to make it look like a piano key board
You have to turn it sideways to see the key board, like this:
Do you see the keys? (my husband didn't either) This quit is for my niece who is extremely gifted on a piano. I wish you could hear her, her fingers fly back and forth along the keyboard.
I think my favorite part is that little tease of a binding.
I got lots of "swirl with a hook" practice.
and match stick practice.
Quilted on my HQ Sweet Sixteen. Have I mentioned how much I love it? It's the perfect option for me since I can't stand for hours at a time on a long-arm.
No scraps were left behind, ha ha.

A friend just gave me three Hollyhock plants that are offspring from her beautiful, mature plants. After trying to find information on planting these "babies", I am now wondering if they will winter over, come up next spring, and produce flowers. I am thinking that maybe she should have given me some seed pods instead. I can't find any info on planting young Hollyhocks and I don't want to plant them if they won't take hold. Any advice and help will be appreciated.
Dividing the plant at this time poses NO problem. Just dig the hole the same depth & wider than your transplants. then cover them & water... most of the plants start growth in the spring & will give you flowers. IF your friend should give you some seed then plant them in the area you want the plants Cover the seed & water. again will have plants /flowers in the spring.... Reamber there are annual & perennial hollyhocks....
I would save a few seed from the old fashion hollyhocks just in case but I would expect them to replenish themselves.
Hollyhocks are one of the things that will come back year after year out in the Great Basin of Nevada and Utah where the sage brush and tumble weed are sparse and sickly.

Sleigh Belles by Beth Albright
What it's about (back cover copy courtesy of Harlequin):
With her hair perfectly coiffed, nails freshly manicured and a heavy trail of perfume wafting behind her, local news reporter Dallas Dubois is sure she's about to kick her career—and maybe her love life—into high gear. The director of the Tuscaloosa children's Christmas play has fallen ill, and Dallas is ordered by her station manager to take the reins. Everyone is shocked—especially Cal Hollingsworth, who still remembers her as the Ice Queen from high school.
If nothing else, Dallas has never met a challenge that a little lip gloss and a Chanel knockoff couldn't fix. But she has no idea how to relate to these kids, and their brutal honesty is giving her pause. Things are made even more complicated by the butterflies she gets whenever Cal is near….
But when long-lost family members reenter her life, Dallas's icy veneer begins to melt. And with Cal by her side, she soon realizes that it's what's under all the hair spray that counts.
Why you should read it: Author Beth Albright snagged my attention right away with Dallas Dubois — a heroine as startling as a Southern restaurant with sweet potato pie missing from the menu. Not only does Dallas overdo it with the makeup and the perfume, she doesn't like children, ignores anyone who can't boost her career, throws regular hissy fits and has managed to work her way through three — yes, three — husbands. Speaking of three, Sleigh Belles is the third in Albright's Sassy Belles series, and apparently Dallas was quite a devilish diva in books one and two. But in this latest Tuscaloosa tale, Albright gives her heroine solid, heartbreaking motivation for her less-than-ladylike behavior, and in the end, all is forgiven.
"So, Uncle Cal. Your friend is pretty hot," Justine said. "Why don't you ask her out?"
"No way, kiddo. I've known that woman my whole life and she is nothing but bad news." Then he laughed. "No pun intended."
"I think I'd sacrifice the headline for her," Justine teased. "She's easily the hottest reporter Tuscaloosa has ever had."
"Yeah, but she's also incredibly full of herself. No room for me and all that hairspray in my little car."
Sleigh Belles really is an entertaining read — Albright's feisty, folksy style reminds me of Carolyn Brown and her popular Texas cowboy books. Besides the standout characters and lively humor (the menagerie's antics in the Christmas play are a literal riot), Dallas' transformation involves believable, understandable, wrenching conflict that shares stage time with a long overdue healing — one that's cleverly illustrated through the collective repair of a gingerbread house. The characters' points of view occasionally veer into omniscient territory, and the narrative does carry a hint of sappy. Then again, this is a Christmas story! While Dallas Dubois earns her happy ever after, she takes the reader on a journey that's irresistibly tender and unexpected. And sassy. You will enjoy the sassy.
Snowflakes and Coffee Cakes by Joanne DeMaio
What it's about (back cover copy courtesy of Joanne DeMaio):
Reluctant to leave her cherished New England hometown after her sister's winter wedding, former journalist Vera Sterling makes a sudden decision. She takes what's left of her severance pay and invests it in real estate…in one particular drafty colonial home and old timber barn set upon the pretty banks of Addison Cove. In that rough-hewn barn, she discovers a secret treasure left behind by the previous owner, the proprietor of the long-forgotten Christmas Barn gift shop.
While restoring her rundown, wood-sided home—its creaking floors, broken banister, and neglected widow's walk—that secret slowly unfolds like a bit of snowflake wonder, crystallizing hopes and dreams for many in this small Connecticut town. But mostly for Derek Cooper whose own tragic story has headlined Addison's news. And whom Vera has come to love.
When the first snowstorm hits during Derek's annual Deck the Boats Festival at the cove, residents become stranded. It is then up to Vera to not only bring the town together, but to mend one man's heart she fears she may have lost.
Why you should read it: Joanne DeMaio is beloved by readers for her heartfelt heroine-at-the-crossroads stories that stir, entertain, inspire and gladden. Snowflakes and Coffee Cakes is the third in her small-town New England series — the genuine characters and the relatable complications they face in Addison, Conn., are so popular, they've given DeMaio a solid position on the best-seller lists. One thing I find oh so refreshing about this author's work is the kindness and compassion in her make-believe town — there's no collective plotting against the hero or heroine here. No, the fellowship is year-round in Addison, and it's especially evident during the holidays.
DeMaio's descriptions are thought-provoking, lush and poetic, her use of the snowflake motif deft and delightful.
The snow falls even heavier. For all her father taught her about winter and snowflakes, still, in a magical and sad moment like this, as she sees her old hometown through a windshield covered with glistening crystals, she has to wonder. What are snowflakes, really? Today she'd say they're nothing more than perfect stars dropped down to earth, each one a treasure, casting a sense of hope on the view through her window.
The book's theme centers on healing, but it's more about letting in than letting go, which is just as a love story should be. Watching Vera nudge the community — and Derek — out of mourning and into acceptance is touching, and so very gratifying. There is no artifice between these two — they're open and honest with each other from the get-go, which only adds to the tension, as Derek makes it clear he's a loner through and through. But, hey, we're romantics. We can't help but hope!
Tradition also plays a significant role in the story (though not always in a healthy way). One of the more engaging traditions is the weather watch by Vera's meteorologist father — his obsession with snow is a hoot. The romance is less angsty than I usually prefer, but despite its quiet it enthralls, and I couldn't look away from the page as I followed Vera on her sentimental, amusing journey back to Addison — and into Derek's world.
Because you just never know when a bit of wonder will drop into your life.
The very best of reasons to experience Snowflakes and Coffee Cakes.
Christmas on 4th Street by Susan Mallery
What it's about (back cover copy courtesy of Harlequin):
Noelle Perkins just got a second chance at life, and she intends to make the most of every minute. That's why she ditched a frustrating legal career to open her own store in Fool's Gold, California. The Christmas Attic celebrates everything that's magical about her favorite season. Business is booming, and as a bonus, gorgeous army doctor Gabriel Boylan has offered to help out during the holiday rush.
Gabriel's memories of Christmas past contain more sour grapes than sugar plums, thanks to a drill sergeant father who ran his home like a boot camp. Spending the holidays with his family while he recuperates from injury sounds as appetizing as last year's eggnog. Still, there are some enjoyable distractions in town, including sunny, sexy Noelle…and the red-hot mistletoe kisses they can't stop sharing.
Gabriel didn't think he was made for happily-ever-afters. But when fate hands you a love as sweet and surprising as this, only a fool could refuse….
Why you should read it: Y'all. This is Susan Mallery. Of course you want to read her latest! And as you can tell from the blurb, Christmas on 4th Street is the complete Mallery package, from the tantalizing premise and lighthearted tone to the entire community of romantics eager to see the taciturn hero and determined heroine safely on their way to together forever.
She smiled. Whatever else he was going to grumble about faded as her mouth curved. Because the second she smiled, he felt a whole lot better about nearly everything. His hand hurt less, he wasn't as tired and the avalanche of regret he felt at showing up in Fool's Gold reduced itself to a small rock-slide.
Talk about a trick.
The conflict isn't new to the Fool's Gold series — Gabriel can't imagine settling down in this Disney-esque burg and Noelle can't imagine living anywhere else. And who can blame her, when the residents look out for each other, there's always a festival around the corner and an elephant named Priscilla is a regular part of the nativity? But Gabriel and Noelle have different life philosophies. Gabriel knows too well that life can be cut brutally short, so when it comes to love, he can't see a good reason to risk it. Noelle, on the other hand, believes in living life while she has it — and I spent most of the story in frantic anticipation of finding out exactly where her attitude came from. The truth is sobering, the circumstances around it heartbreaking.
Still, Noelle has faith, which Gabriel doesn't share, and this plays into his issues with his father — and makes for a riveting subplot. By the way, Fool's Gold fans will revel in the tie-ins to the rest of the series. I did find a few of Noelle's decisions iffy, and would have enjoyed a more leisurely wrap-up to the romance. But Mallery's a master at making it all work, and the perfect mingling of steam, humor and heartbreak make this Fool's Gold installment sparkle and shine. Christmas on 4th Street is a feel-good, festive read that's all about holiday, healing and happy ever afters — and that's my kind of story.
Kathy Altman's latest contemporary romance novel is Staying at Joe's. Kathy prefers her chocolate with nuts, her Friday afternoons with wine and her love stories with happy ever afters. Her website is KathyAltman.com.

The stuff was very opened to help with changing the room and finally we
end up in the great one 301 with nice city view - it was big, bright and
clean. It made our last night in Azores to leave with perfect memory on
the entire stay which was amazing. Breakfast is simple but it perfect as
they try to focus on high quality local products and fresh orange juice
is available as well - not common in such accommodation types . - Anonymous
Cosy, clean, quiet, small
hotel on the ocean's coast.Free parking in courtyard and on the street . Wi-Fi in each room. Amazing, very responsive staff. The location of the hotel's just between Ponta Delgada and Vila Franca do Campo, in still village. Though, sandy beach's around 3 km, there is a little lagoon,equips with necessary facilities for a swimming. Nearby there's wonderful restaurant, a lot of cafeterias and large supermarket. Perfectly for a family or solitary rest of short duration - Anonymous
A perfect place to stay in Furnas town. Very clean and comfortable room with balcony space and view to the surrounding countryside. Terra Nostra Spa is a short walk away, and Furnas Lake a short drive away. Best of all are the friendly family who own and manage the hotel and make you feel at home. Highly recommended. - Anonymous
We were very impressed with this hotel. Superb value for money, very conveniently located, lovely helpful staff. We felt very welcome and comfortable here. There is no lift but people helped take our bags up to our room, which anyway was only a short easy flight of stairs up so putting that in as a positive and not a negative. Free wifi very easy to connect to - all round a really good experience. - Susan

"'The Comeback Kid' and the Kids Who Won't" By Amy Goodman
President Barack Obama signed a slew of bills into law during the lame-duck session of Congress and was dubbed the "Comeback Kid" amid a flurry of fawning press reports. In the hail of this surprise bipartisanship, though, the one issue over which Democrats and Republicans always agree, war, was completely ignored. The war in Afghanistan is now the longest war in U.S. history, and 2010 has seen the highest number of U.S. and NATO soldiers killed.
