Unseeded Brazilian Thomaz Bellucci upset top-seeded Janko Tipsarevic of Serbia, 6-7 (6), 6-4, 6-2 in the Swiss Open final on Sunday.
Bellucci, ranked No. 60, got his third career title and second at Gstaad. He won the clay-court event as a qualifier in 2009.
Tipsarevic was denied a second straight title after winning on clay last week at Stuttgart, Germany, where he beat Bellucci in the semifinals.
Bellucci led 6-1 in the first-set tiebreaker, before Tipsarevic reeled off seven points for the set. At 5-4 in the second, Bellucci broke the eighth-ranked Serbian's serve to love to even the match.
Tipsarevic saved two match points but double-faulted to present a third, which the 24-year-old Brazilian won.
Bellucci and Tipsarevic will compete in the London Olympics at Wimbledon.

I've just been reading through the HBO forums, and picked up many references to Rowley's books. My question is- which ones should I read (as related to the HALO storyline)
They mention starhammer several times, but also link to two Vang books. Are these books related to each other? Or two separate worlds?

How long for the recovery?
Recovery from revision of breast augmentation and small mastopexy?
Doctor Answers 3
Each surgeon is different with how he or she manages patients after breast augmentation/mastopexy.
I use nerve blocks with long acting Marcaine (Exparel), and my patients have very little pain following breast augmentation. This eliminates most pain for about 72 hours. Generally, my patients take anywhere from 0-3 pain pills total in their recovery.
In my practice I see patients 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 1 year after breast augmentation. At two weeks postop, I tell patients that they can begin light exercise on the lower body only (e.g. hands free elliptical, elevated treadmill walking, leg extensions, calf raises, etc.) and at 1 month, they can resume normal activity. I ask patients to avoid bench press, pushups, and butterfly lifting for 2-3 months.
The most critical aspect of postoperative care is patient communication. I give all of my patients my personal cell number and regularly speak to patients about questions and concerns in the pre- and postoperative period.

Check out this rare letter written by Michael Jackson aka "turd" for his lady at the time, Lisa Marie Presley... Michael Jackson signed letters to Lisa Marie Presley as 'Turd'. A note penned by the late Thriller hitmaker to his then-wife - who he was married to between 1994 and 1996 - reveals his apparent nickname, which is a slang term for faeces, and also details his need for sleep. The handwritten letter - which was has been removed from sale for Julien's Auctions forthcoming Music Icons sale - reads: "I truly need this rest. I haven't slept litterally in 4 days and I need to be away from phones and business people. I must take care of my health first. Im' crazy for you. (sic)" The sign off then says: "Love, Turd," The letter has been removed from the sale following a request from Lisa Marie.

In his Political precepts, Plutarch tells of how many great politicians began their career by attaching themselves to a famous statesman and how they later cherished and honoured their teachers, "enhancing in turn with their own radiance, and illuminating, like the heavenly bodies that face the sun, that which caused themselves to shine" (805f-806a, transl.

Plutarch was a political animal.

By associating with rulers, the philosopher provides evidence of his love of what is honourable (φιλοκαλία), his political spirit, and his love of mankind (φιλανθρωπία).

Hi Peoples,
I refurbed (new motherboard/more memory, and OS 10.4.11) an old Blue & White G3 Tower to practice on for few months until I get the all new set-up...even this antique beats my Dell in many ways! Anyway the question is: Is there any way to access my iTunes folders created on the Dell (in my 1TB external HD) without having to 'add to library' all over again? I tried it with some of my music folders and it's eating gigs and creating doubles...plus it's taking forever. I basically just wanna use the Power PC-G3 as a music server. I don't think I can update iTunes anymore because of the OS age and limits. But, there it is-*-Help? Also as an aside, are there unneeded programs I can delete to, hopefully, speed it up to use JUST as a music server? |

I would have thought that the PC version of the iTunes Library (and all its attendant assets) would just be able to be moved over to the Mac version in the same place (Home/Music), then have iTunes point to the "new" library by holding the option key at launch, but maybe this only works with later versions. |

Here are my slides from the WordPress session at IT4K12 conference. I'll try and get them up on slideshare as well shortly.
it4k12 wordpress slides pptx
Tag Archives: conference
Technology and Safety
A new resource called Technology and Safety has been added to the district moodle site. It is directed specifically at parents and other adults.
We will be creating another course around safety for the teachers in the WWP to use with their students.
Rural Schools Technology Trainer Session
October 22nd, 2008 Sheraton Wall Centre
The trainer session goes over how to support our rural teachers in the cohort.
- Session was provided F2F with a synchronous elluminate video/slide feed.
- Rural Schools will provide four elluminate sessions through BCELC for leadership development.
- Looking for partnerships with district initiatives so that we are maximizing opportunities
- Rural schools has asked me to provide some collaboration with or rural teachers. They will provide some funds for this as well!
- Intent of the conference is not that it is a two/three day conference that ends here. This will continue on throughout the year via elluminate
- nearly 500 registrants this year to conference
- Participants felt that the themes of the conference represented the needs of the participants
- They effectively modeled the use elluminate in the classroom
- Need to check machines are rural schools that elluminate will run on them. I believe this should be fine but I will ask the teachers who come to have an elluminate session with me before.
- The NRT cohort will have one f2f session and three elluminate sessions. Other teachers are welcome to attend those sessions. We can invite all rural teachers to these sessions. Could we use this a gatekeeper for those who would like to attend the conference next year?
- I will be posting times to this site and will support teachers who would like to attend
- Professional Online sessions are also available through Rural schools on Monday afternoons for an hour
- The topics for conference this year will continue on with the plenary speakers through elluminate sessions
- http://www.learnnowbc.ca/educators/Rural_Education/Prof_Learning_Login.aspx
- Draw for people that participate, some district uses a moodle forum for rural schools… use the news forum to get the info out there so participants will get the email, others can check and join… prizes for participants to the moodle site.
- Elluminate could be used with Duncan Cran and their rural schools for meetings
- I've posted a new moodle course on the district moodle site called Rural Schools. I've added the webconference dates in the calendar and will work this week on adding more info.
- Specifics for Trainers
- We held two sessions in the same room where one was out loud, and the other was through elluminate via headphones with the presenter at the back of the same room.. really cool!
- Elluminate version 9 is being added Friday
- Went over setting up profile in elluminate that will follow you whenever you login. Great!
- Went over breakout groups, amazingly fast and simple. This could be great for the admin meetings
- Showed application sharing with regions so you can keep the communications window open and share your desktop and it looks great!
ERAC 2008: Wrap-up
Looking at streaming video. A possible change for next year would be purchasing videos provincially and selling them (similar to what the ministry used to do) in digital formats at low cost with specific BC focus.
There is a concerted effort to keep people informed, but cannot release negotiation info until things are agreed upon.
Learning Resources: ERAC is working on some way to organize things for the province again (similar to what the ministry used to do). They are working on models that they will be able to update us on by the end of October.
All 60 districts and over 100 independents have joined ERAC. Looking to work with neighbouring provinces on consortium acquisitions.
Participants will be the SD's Professional Learning contact so they can help us help our schools.
ERAC 2008: Video and Streaming in the Classroom
Waynor and Discovery Education streaming (aka united streaming) are in partnership with this streaming project. http://streaming.discoveryeducation.com/
Started the session with questions from the group to help and steer the direction of the presentation which included whether these can be embedded into moodle, what are the costs, compatibility, bandwidth issues etc.
Discovery Education streaming is a password protected user site, access to 5000 videos, and 44,000 video segments. Use 22,000 different images and clip art, over 1500 editable videos, more than 1000 closed captioned videos, full teacher guides and blackline masters, interactive atlas, calender, aligned to BC curriculum standards, download capability for virtually all videos.
Site has an administrative capabilities with user reports, content filtering at discretion, managing users, generate stats, gauge effectiveness of streaming.
Enables engaging multimedia lessons so our students do not need to power down when they come into our classrooms.
Each school that signs up gets a unique pass code that is used to register teachers on the site. Teachers can create a custom account and save items including assignments links, quizzes…
There is a professional-development section that shows teachers how they can integrate video into their classrooms.
Streaming can be used to preview, but teachers should download if they are planning to use it in their classroom to avoid any network problems. Video's can be added to powerpoint, web, moodle etc.
Very good teacher section with LO, students can do assignments online, email verification to teachers, add video, images, questions etc, export assignments to word.
Also demoed how it can be imported into WP. Moodle would work as well. I'd recommend using the mov format as it is cross platform. Let's try…
calorie (mov file)
Yep, it works!
Drumroll on the cost:$1.98 / FTE in schools with a minimum of $485.
Each school gets a point person for the company (department head) who will receive passcode info for their teachers. This also enables better pro-d within the school as there is support locally. (pro-d available on website as well that helps that point person)
I would list this as a BUY if you have money in your LR budget, especially if you have projectors, and smartboards in your classrooms.
ERAC 2008: Online Databases
Question about all or nothing offer with the online databases is apparently a hot topic. My understanding is that it is $1.65 / FTE in your district is pretty steep when only our high school has used them. 5800 x 1.65 = $9,570 per year when our Teacher-Librarians have shared with me that NPSS is the only school that has used either Worldbook or EBSCO in the past, cancelled worldbook recently, and few used EBSCO. Students have access through their public library card to EBSCO and all librarians have a public library card.
Presentation talked about students ability, or lack thereof, to effectively search using tools online, how do they collect the information, the time spent by students reading a website (pretty short time, low depth of investigation, focus on top only). Students are not using the internet for homework, they are not being assigned assigned projects conducive to using the internet, not being assigned projects at all, and are not using the we in a knowledge creating manner.
Searching is covered in the ICT learning outcomes, do we need to pay for something that searches better or should we not teach our students to search more effectively?
Kevin Ford from World Book continued on with their presentation. They used GoTowebinar (a citrix product) to do a walk through with one of the staff from Chicago. Site is set up either through IP authentication or username and password. Worldbook does have some very nice search features for kids, but there are many free places for this as well that include lesson plans, safe searches that teachers can find and use. Does one central solution warrant the cost?
www.worldbookonline.com/student has very good search results and at the bottom of the page there are links to Educators tools which find how content is linked to the BC curriculum. This is a very nice feature. I can get in at SFU, so they must be paying for this or is it open? Looking at the biography section for political leaders in Canada it has specific leaders but not biographies on all. These are written by staff at Worldbook and must have some selection process that apparently happens twice a year. My concern that I shared is that Canadian elections occur in a span of one month and this is not a good resource for current events.
Between National Geographic, Britannica (which appear to be both free), as well as CBC, and BBC I believe there are more than enough quality, free sources online for our secondary schools. WWP uses some specific search engines that are kid friendly that are free as well.
EBSCO Host
Presented their database offerings, there is resources for everyone at general and advance secondary, elementary, middle, and T-L's, Teachers and Admin. Strength of EBSCO is in negotiating rights with publishers to aggregate content behind a search interface. High quality content, published articles, videos, sound, SWOT analysis, images, books, etc. I would support a purchase of EBSCO since it is a database collection rather than only articles created by staff.
UserID: ebsco
Password: erac
Can be set up at an IP level, login/password (for home use)
Something that was mentioned in both parts of the presentation was that everything is really simple… the problem is how do we get the information out effectively to everyone and help them get to the point that they are feeling that it really is simple. With the massive amount of resources it is really easy to only see the forest and not focus in on one tree.
ERAC 2008: Inspiration
We already have district licencing for Inspiration for all of our mac laptops. I'm enjoying using it more and more for different projects that I need a visual of the links and organization. Gantt charts is helping as well for tielines (http://ganttproject.biz)
I'm currently using inspiration for a mindmap with the restructuring project.
I learned that we can add a note to each of the topics that can be up to 15 pages long. That can be good for details on the restructuring.
Book pick – Teaching for Every Student: Universal Design for Learning
Available at http://cast.org for free
SpeakQ and WordQ looks like good add-ons to inspiration for special ed kids, enables word prediction, read text, read highlighted text, thesaurus etc.
We should look at licensing this for the labs and library at NPSS…
We can use Inspiration for how-to's with pictures and video, sound, notes etc. Could be great for troubleshooting. (would the video and sound export well to html?)
Many examples at learningforall.ca as well as inspiration.com
ERAC: MS Learning Essentials Templates
We were provided with a CD of templates with 390 different MS templates… I can zip these and post them here for people to download. They are freely available through MS.
The powerpoint presentation will be available at http://nbteacher.wikispaces.com
These are amazing! I've seen some of the templates on the wwp image. I wonder if these are the same or we can include these on there.
We'll have to add it on images or central server locations and create some how-to's for teachers… Great stuff!
This is free in our district since we have volume licenses in our district.
www.microsoft.com/learningessentials (versions in multiple languages! ~French, English, Spanish, German etc could be very helpful in our district)
There are toolbars that can be initiated in MS office 2007 for Learning Essentials… Side by side project assistants. Two programs, Learning Essentials for Educators, Learning Essentials for Students.
SCORM compliant… Can this work with Moodle for creating quizzes? Quiz and Test tool in the learning essentials for educators.
Looks like the learning essentials programs only support MS Office on the PC at the moment… The templates will work on either though.
I've added the files at NPSS at O:\MS_Templates (\\ookapik\o.drive\MS_Templates)
ERAC Digital Conference 2008
Oct 2&3 SFU Surrey
Here are my notes from the ERAC conference
- no influence is more pervasive or significant on student learning that is the teaching process
- ERAC Professional Learning Model: Assist districts in providing enriched student learning environments to increase student achievement
- Annual meetings with district contacts
- Professional learning and training opportunities… two contacts at districts, digital and text (Jarrod & Kim)
- ERAC is working on building a network with all pro-d in the province… rural, bctf, etc
- Mac Petry… ERAC is about four years old
- Ministry took on the task in the past and ERAC has been created to pick up the resource acquisition piece. Districts pushed the ministry for more involvement: ERAC was created to meet these needs
- ERAC is a district lead consortium
- 1.2 Million dollar budget from ministry, 0.3M from districts
- aim is to support districts with purchasing of learning resources
- collaborative environment, consortium saves time and money, and pools expertise from around the province
- ERAC is us, changes depending on the needs of the school districts
- The old: Theoretical model of teaching (push information to students)
- The new: Theoretical model of teaching (push information to students via technology)
- Both are just filling the "container" (students' brains)! We need to change that!
- All of the flavour of the month learning methods share the fact that the learner is the active agent
- Must move to student centred learning to move past where we are. If we are stuck at the 80% graduation rate, maybe this is what we need
- problem based learning… students must have direct access to learning resources, no barriers
- students are actively engaged in their own learning, self direct, monitor etc
- Authentic tasks
- have opportunity to investigate and discover
- demonstrate what they know in various ways
- pushing information leads to small single loop learning that is stored, unconnected in the brain
- in student centred instructional design double loop learning occurs and knowledge is connected in the brain
- David Johnassen (book search)
- Start with central question and connect it outwards, but always bring it back to the central point
- ICT performance standard for grades 5-10… load inspiration
- IDS course for problem based learning course where students create their own course
- Authentic tasks are generally broad an ill defined
- example for FNS12 regarding aboriginal graduation rate, how do we increase that rate from 60%? (Derrek Laychuk)
- Implementation: challenge is getting the resources in place
- Takes time, resources, support
- ERAC evaluates, acquires and deploys resources, support districts in supporting teachers to use learning resources – especially digital
- anything we purchase is not worth it if teachers are not using it in classrooms
- One off workshops don't work, they don't change practice!
- What does work? Planned, sustained, embedded, and guided professional learning over time
- Planned: part of the fabric of your school /district, has resources (people money technology)
- Sustained: over time, not one shot, sustained over years
- Pedagogical change takes time
- If stand and deliver is boring F2F then it is tragic done online… different approaches are needed
- Embedded: must work anywhere everywhere anytime
- Guide: mentorship is required. Teacher-Librarians are key to this in many schools
- In-service T-L's more on the online databases???
- Implementation models
- -trainer of trainer (key district staff, hold workshops, workshops don't change practice)
- -trainer of trainer plus (key district staff trains trainers in schools and they train, more successful)
- – this allows local mentors, help "in situ", need reliable accessible technology and resources
- – district mentor needs training and support on how to build community of practices, cross curicular integration strategies
- –ERAC provides training, leadership, and hope to build a provincial community of practice
Some things to keep in mind while looking at resources on these two days
- What are some key features of this product that I would highlight in my district?
- How does this product support learning?
- What are some strategies for implementation in the classroom?
- What kind of training will teachers need?
- What kind of barriers to teachers using this resources in their classroom? How could we eliminate/reduce these barriers?

This has been, and may continue to be, a unique and wonderful forum to share information, and debate boat-related issues.
Unfortunately like all commercial enterprises, the Sailnet forum exists at the mercy of the marketplace, and may just suddenly disappear.
If the rumors of Sailnets imminent or extant demise are true, we can expect the forum to simply disappear without warning - perhaps at month-end (billing period).
I dont expect that the CruisersForum will necessarily fill the needs of this membership, nor replace the Sailnet board, but it may provide a meeting place to stay in touch with developments - and to tag up with each other. I will endeavour to maintain a clearing-house of information at http://cruisersforu.com
Specifically at the thread: http://cruisersforum.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2059
Titled: SAILNET Message Board
Under the Blue Water Cruising divider, at the heading Books, References, Links & Website Announcements
Heres hoping the rumors are false, and the Sailnet Message Boards remain up & active.
If not, check in at the CruisersForum

Instagram Restores Blocked Accounts After "Temporary Glitch"
Instagram users of the world can relax again. The small number of people who couldn't get into their accounts yesterday should have access again; and no, Instagram isn't planning a mass delete of inactive accounts.
#DontDeleteMyAccount Panic On Instagram Over Account Deletion Rumor, our story yesterday, covers how some on Instagram began panicking yesterday over rumors that Instagram was going to delete accounts that weren't constantly active, or which weren't taking pictures directly through Instagram or … you name it.
In part, these seem fueled by the fact that some people did have access to their accounts blocked, several reporting this was due to "Terms Of Service" violations.
Instagram has confirmed there's no mass deletion underway. As for those blocked accounts, an Instagram spokesperson emailed us:
A small percentage of users could not access their accounts for a few hours as a result of a temporary glitch. We have restored access for these users, and no pictures or data were lost.
It's still unclear if those users who were blocked were told if this was because of a terms violation, as well as what caused the glitch. But hopefully those impacted can indeed get back to posting their pictures again.

Windows 8 is just around the corner and the upgrade for Windows 8 from previous OS is very cheap and saves you about $130 when you buy a Windows 8 Pro upgrade. You can upgrade from Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 but, the things that are kept during the upgrade process is different e.g. upgrading from XP won't save anything, Vista users can save the files and settings while Windows users will get the files, settings and apps in Windows 8.
- You can read more about things you can preserve while upgrading to Windows 8 here.
Upgrading from previous OS is very easy as compared to installing new OS and we will be guiding you on how to upgrade from previous OS to Windows 8.
Just follow the instructions below and you will be able to upgrade to Windows 8 easily.
Before upgrading, you need to fulfill the following requirements:
- You must have a Windows 8 .iso file or upgrade DVD. You can get Windows 8 from Microsoft.com or pre-order Windows 8 by going to this link.
- Your hard drive must have at-least 16GB of free storage in a single partition (20GB is recommended)
- Your PC must fulfill the whole hardware requirements.
- You would need a mounting software like Daemon tools to mount the .iso file.
Now, after fulfilling all the above requirements, just follow the instruction below to upgrade your Windows 7, Vista or XP to Windows 8.
- First of all, mount your Windows 8 32/64 bit .iso file by using the mounting software or skip to third step if, you have an upgrade DVD.
- After mounting/inserting the DVD, you would see a Windows 8 setup window, if not, then run it manually by opening the mounted drive from My Computer.
- Your Windows 8 setup would open.
- The setup would scan your PC for requirements and notify you what changes you would need to make before installation. You may need to uninstall some software if the setup prompts (I didn't uninstalled any software in my machine)
- Once checked, your PC would restart. After restart you may need to remount the Windows 8.iso file and re run it. But, choose resume from where the setup left. Your windows 8 setup would continue from where you left it.
- You would be asked for changes which you want to keep. Select 'files and data' which would the first option or select the appropriate option.
Note: You may not see the 'keep' options if, you are upgrading from Windows XP or Vista.
- Now, your Windows 8 installation will start. After completing the whole installation on reaching the 100%, your PC would restart again.
- Now, this time you will see the Windows 8's logo instead of your Windows 7, XP or Vista's logo. The setup will update your registry and then ready your devices.
- Your PC will restart several time during this process.
- After, few restarts and about 10-15 minutes (it may take more on slower devices), you would be taken to the Windows 8 settings where you have to choose different settings like colors, sharing, error reporting and updates installation etc.
- After selecting the above things, your would be showed the Windows 8 out of box (OOBE) tutorial then, the PC will get ready and install the apps.
- In the last, you would be taken to the Start Screen of Windows 8.
- Congratulation! You have the Windows 8.
Your data would be there and all the compatible software would also run. Enjoy the new league of Windows called the "Windows re-imagined".

Results may vary from person to person as there are various external and internal factors that may influence each persons experience while using this product. Some of our customers may see immediate results, while others have achieved great results within 4-6 weeks.

A GREAT headline never dies.
The 30,000 pigs lost down the Dawson from the 2011 floods is a corker (or should we say porker) of a header that has again reared its 120,000 trotters in the media.
For anyone who hasn't heard the story, a farmer told a Bully reporter over the phone that he had lost "30 sows and pigs" in the floods.
The reporter thought he heard "30,000 pigs" and the rest is history - including the correction.
Well, not quite as the ABC TV comedy Lowdown used the infamous line in its Thursday episode
Adam Zwar, playing Sunday Star journalist Alex Burchill, was grilled by his editor for not checking on his facts.
He explained it was hard to hear "Barnaby" over the rain.

Zinc oxide eugenol
This article needs additional citations for verification. (June 2009) |
Zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) is a material created by the combination of zinc oxide and eugenol contained in oil of cloves. An acid-base reaction takes place with the formation of zinc eugenolate chelate. The reaction is catalysed by water and is accelerated by the presence of metal salts. ZOE can be used as a filling or cement material in dentistry.[1][2] It is often used in dentistry when the decay is very deep or very close to the nerve or pulp chamber. Because the tissue inside the tooth, i.e. the pulp, reacts badly to the drilling stimulus (heat and vibration), it frequently becomes severely inflamed and precipitates a condition called acute or chronic pulpitis. This condition usually leads to severe chronic tooth sensitivity or actual toothache and can then only be treated with the removal of the nerve (pulp) called root canal therapy. The placement of a ZOE "temporary" for a few to several days prior to the placement of the final filling can help to sedate the pulp. It is classified as an intermediate restorative material and has anaesthetic and antibacterial properties. It is sometimes used in the management of dental caries as a "temporary filling". ZOE cements were introduced in the 1890s.
Zinc oxide eugenol is also used as an impression material during construction of complete dentures and is used in the mucostatic technique of taking impressions, usually in a special tray, (acrylic) produced after primary alginate impressions. However, ZOE is not usually used if the patient has large undercuts or tuberosities, whereby silicone impression materials would be better suited.
Zinc oxide eugenol is also used as an antimicrobial additive in paint.
According to ANSI/ADA Specification no:30 (ISO 3107) and depending on intended use and individual formulation designed for each specific purpose:
- Type I: Temporary ZOE Luting cement
- Type II: Long term ZOE Luting cement
- Type III: Temporary ZOE Restoration
- Type IV: Intermediate ZOE Restoration
The chemical composition of ZOE is typically:[3]
- Zinc oxide, ~69.0%
- White rosin, ~29.3%
- Zinc acetate, ~1.0% (improves strength)
- Zinc stearate, ~0.7% (acts as accelerator)
- Liquid (eugenol, ~85%, olive oil ~15%)
ZOE impression pastes are dispensed as two separate pastes. One tube contains zinc oxide and vegetable or mineral oil; the other contains eugenol and rosin. The vegetable or mineral oil acts as a plasticizer and aids in offsetting the action of the eugenol as an irritant.
Oil of cloves, which contains 70% to 85% eugenol, is sometimes used in preference to eugenol because it produces less burning sensation for patients when it contacts the soft tissues. The addition of rosin to the paste in the second tube facilitates the speed of the reaction and yields a smoother, more homogenous product.
Canada balsam and Balsam of Peru are often used to increase flow and improve mixing properties. If the mixed paste is too thin or lacks body before it sets, a filler (such as a wax) or an inert powder (such as kaolin, talc, or diatomaceous earth) may be added to one or both of the original pastes.

Bratislava HotelsThe city of Bratislava has a rich history of royalty, invasions, and occupations, and those who love history and architecture will find it endlessly fascinating. Down its cobbled streets you'll see buildings dating back hundreds of years, and the city has become a popular spot for cultural events, from music to art, all set against the spectacular backdrop. There's also a more modern side to the city with the New Town offering industrial architecture, and featuring towering, modern malls and newer facilities. Things to seeLooking out over the city is Bratislava Castle, with its distinctive red tiled roof, and its 4 towers where guards protected the Slovakian royalty who lived here. The oldest tower dates back to the 13th century, and the castle has elements of gothic and renaissance architecture that can fully be appreciated with a guided tour. The castle has been the site of many battles and was in ruins for many years, before being lovingly restored, and from this vantage point you can enjoy the views of the River Danube and the Old Town. Stroll across the bridge and head for the Main Square in the Old Town, where you'll see pastel shaded buildings with gold accents, and the grand clock tower keeping the time. The square is full of restaurants and cafés with outdoor tables, and the main focal point of the area is the gothic Old Town Hall with its complex of historic buildings, as well as the traditionally styled Bratislava City Museum with its statues, gold framed oil paintings, and ancient artefacts.Hotels in
BratislavaThe style of Bratislava hotel you choose will often depend on where in the city you want to stay, with the Old and New Town offering traditional or contemporary hotels respectively. The Old Town is home to many cosy boutiques, with individually designed rooms and features such as spa tubs, saunas, restaurants, bars and lounges, room service, and complimentary breakfasts to set you up for a day of sightseeing. If you prefer a more contemporary style of hotel, then the New Town has many high rise, modern accommodation options, with rooms offering amenities such as minibars, flat-screen televisions with satellite channels, separate bathtubs and showers, bathrobes, and a nightly turndown service. Where to stayThe Old Town is where you can really learn about Slovakian history, with relics of the days of kings and medieval grandeur. Along the winding cobbled streets you'll find tall, narrow houses in warm pastel colours, and this area is the site of many of the major attractions, with tourists taking photos next to the statues of Hans Christian Anderson and Napoleon. The New Town, known locally as Nové Mesto, is to the north of the city, with its glittering skyscrapers, and remains of the high rise Soviet architecture. However, the area does have a more natural side, with dense forest on the outskirts of the city, and the Little Carpathians providing a mountain backdrop.How to get to BratislavaThe city's Letisko Bratislava airport is well served by budget airlines, as well as major carriers, and you can arrive here from cities across Europe, the Middle East, and even Russia. It's just a 15 minute taxi drive, or you can pick up one of the buses that stop at the central railway station before going on to the city centre. Bratislava hlavná stanica is the main railway station serving the city, and there are trains arriving here from Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, and other surrounding countries. From the station it's just a 15 minute walk to the Old Town and many of the popular hotels, or you can use the old, yet charming tram system that rattles through the city.

Ambassador Edward Peck is a retired career United States diplomat who served thirty-two-years in the U.S. Foreign Service. He served as Chief of Mission in Baghdad (Iraq 1977 to 1980) and later held senior posts in Washington and abroad. He also served as a Foreign Service Officer in Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt, and as Ambassador in Mauritania. He served as deputy director of the White House Task Force on Terrorism in the Reagan Administration. He is president of Foreign Services International, a consulting firm that works with governments, businesses and educational institutions across the world.
Edward Peck argued against invading Iraq prior to the March 2003 invasion. He argued, in part, "when you take out Saddam Hussein, the key question you have to ask then is, what happens after that? And we don't have a clue. Nobody knows, but it's probably going to be bad. And a lot of people are going to be very upset about that, because that really is not written into our role in this world is to decide who rules Iraq."
Amb. Peck has been highly critical of U.S. policy toward Israel, arguing through the Council for the National Interest (CNI) in which he plays an active role, that the U.S. should be more even handed in its Middle East policy. He claims that in 2000, at the Camp David talks, Israel offered the Palestinians "12 little Bantustans." His speech was publicized in a documentary produced by an organization, If Americans Knew, a non-profit organization that focuses on the Arab-Israeli conflict and United States foreign policy regarding the Middle East.
Pelosi to Oppose Impeaching President McCain
Pelosi Drafts 2009 Response to Calls to Impeach President McCain
By David Swanson
Found hanging out of the door of a limousine in San Francisco:
Draft Response to Calls to Impeach President McCain
I Have Contempt for Contempt of Congress
By David Swanson
Congress has sent contempt citations and seen them ignored. Congress has taken the matter to court and seen it stalled for many months or years. Congressional committees have passed contempt citations that have never been sent, because what's the point? The House Judiciary Committee has now passed yet another, this one against Rove. And why will Congress not impeach his boss? You'll have to ask Nancy. And why will Congress never ever put Rove in jail on Capitol Hill through inherent contempt and hold him until he testifies? Well, here's what Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren tells one of her constituents:
Pelosi Tells the Nation Magazine Why She Won't Impeach
By David Swanson
From The Nation:
Katrina vanden Heuvel: "On balancing politics and staying true to values... If the book's subtitle is A Message to America's Daughters, what is your message to those daughters who will ask what our representatives did to hold this President and Administration accountable for grave abuses of power? By not allowing impeachment 'on the table,' aren't you failing to protect democracy and the rule of law for future generations of our children and grandchildren?"
Should Conyers Impeach or Write Another Book About Bush and Cheney's Crimes?
Don't Buy Conyers' New Book Unless He's Held an Impeachment Hearing
By David Swanson
House Judiciary Chairman John Conyers could impeach Bush and Cheney in an hour if he chose. They have refused to comply with subpoenas and contempt citations, making a laughingstock of his so-called "oversight." They have rewritten laws with "signing statements" and proceeded to violate the laws. They have openly admitted violating FISA. They've obstructed justice, punished whistleblowers, politicized the Justice Department, and lied us into a war, among many other abuses.
How to Get a Job By Shooting Up a Church
By David Swanson
Imagine being so angry that you couldn't find a job that you were able to decide, as a man in Tennessee just did, that the way to solve your problems was to attack liberals - the people who support (albeit ineffectively) workers' rights, union rights, and fair trade, who oppose NAFTA, oppose tax breaks for shipping jobs overseas, support investing in job creation at home rather than wars abroad, and want to tax corporations and the super-rich rather than small businesses and working people.
The U.S. Department of Media
By David Swanson
Last Friday one of two things indisputably happened. Either a dozen senior Congress members and several well-known expert witnesses went certifiably and collectively insane, or charges of the most extreme executive abuses of power ever heard in the history of this nation were backed up by overwhelming evidence during a six-hour hearing of the House Judiciary Committee focused on the possible need to impeach the President and the Vice President. Either way, a nation with a public communications system worthy of a democracy would have learned the news.
Impeachment Radio
I'll be discussing impeachment on the following shows:
Monday, July 28:
7:00 a.m. ET Nicole Sandler Show 940 WINZ Miami, Florida.

The team's new Russian partners are keen for Sirotkin to be on the grid as soon as he is ready, and Sauber is carrying out a development programme with him in older machinery in preparation.
Asked how long the squad could wait before making a call on Sirotkin, Sauber team boss Monisha Kaltenborn played down the likelihood of leaving the decision until the eve of 2014 testing.
"I think we will know pretty soon if we think he can make sense [for a 2014 race seat] or not," she said.
"We know the responsibility we have and the key to getting all this is getting the Superlicence.
"We are confident he can achieve that, but it is a step that you should not underestimate."
Kaltenborn said Sirotkin was making good progress, and that a lot of the required work was down to his own fitness efforts.
"Our target is clearly to get him into F1. He was supposed to have two tests but one couldn't happen because of the weather and the other one was a good test," she said.
"He has some other driving activities, so it is important that he continues to focus on his preparation, on the physical side, and you cannot underestimate that."

Q: Every night, I get into bed and my dog Sammi (5- to 6-year-old Lab mix) hops up and sleeps at my feet. One night, I did just that, and she jumped a little short and didn't quite make the bed. I thought she was fine, so I picked her up and put her in the bed anyway. The next morning I noticed that she was walking on only three of her legs. Her right rear leg was not able to take any weight. Over the Thanksgiving weekend, I dropped her off to stay at the vet's office. When I went to pick her up, they told me that she had some swelling on the bone just above her knee joint. Since then, I've noticed that she walks normally, but still has a hard spot of swelling right above her knee joint. I'm really worried it's cancer. What do you think it could be?
A: You do have a legitimate concern if your dog has a swelling that is not going away. However, if she is not showing signs of pain in the knee, and is not limping, it is probably not cancer. Bone cancer, or osteosarcoma, is one of the most painful conditions that dogs can endure. It is most common in middle-age to older large breed dogs, and usually occurs at the knee joint on the back leg, or near the shoulder or carpus (wrist) on the front leg. It is characterized by a progressive lameness that continues to get worse.
There are two things your veterinarian can do to help determine what is going on with Sammi's knee. An X-ray of Sammi's knee should rule out bone cancer, but there is always the possibility of a soft-tissue tumor. Your veterinarian can also easily take a needle sample (called a fine needle aspirate) of the lump and look at it under a microscope to try and determine what it is.
I encourage you to follow up if the lump persists, or if Sammi becomes lame again.
