A great bar located in a strange transitional zone (it's odd how frequently good bars are found in such places). There's a skid-row mission, an improbable survival of old New York, just down the street. Largely, but not exclusively French speaking. Lots of French sports fans, who seem a different species. Lively and fun with great atmosphere (that I trust you can hear). Elusive bar chemistry. Highly recommended.

MPS teacher behind bars for allegedly repeatedly sexually assaulting a student
MILWAUKEE - An MPS teacher is charged with repeatedly sexually assaulting one of his students.
Rogers Street Academy fourth grade teacher, Armando Briseno, is accused of forcing a student to engage in oral sex.
In court documents, the student alleges Briseno performed oral sex on him more than 10 times.
The boy told police Briseno took him into another teacher's room, locked the door and "forced me to do whatever he wanted to do to my parts."
Lourdes Hernandez third grade son attends the school. She was shocked by the news.
"The teachers over there are really serious and they take good care of the kids so you shocked me, like I don't know what to say," she said.
The alleged assault occurred over the course of two and a half years.
A spokesman for MPS would not answer questions about Briseno but said by email "he was suspended as soon as we became aware of the allegations".
Briseno is in jail, with no opportunity for bail.

This is what we all expected — a four-game sweep by a Heat team that was just vastly superior to a Bucks team that on top of everything else stumbled into the playoffs.
Four games, all decided by double digits and never in doubt at the end, and that continued Sunday with the Heat knocking off the Bucks 88-77.
With the win the Heat sweep 4-0 and now get almost a week off. They will face the winner of the Bulls vs. Nets (Chicago leads series 3-1) but the earliest the second round series will start is next Saturday.
That week off could help Dwyane Wade, who is still battling a bruised knee. He warmed up for 20 minutes before Game 4 but never played in the game. Ray Allen started for him, scored 16 points on 10 shots, spaced the floor and generally played well.
Regardless of who suited up for Miami, this game followed the pattern of the first three. The Bucks played hard in this series and they were not going to roll over, they fought hard in this game. Their problem was they had no margin for error against the Heat and they kept making mistakes, and turning the ball over.
The game was 69-67 Miami when Monta Ellis missed the and-one free throw to make it a one point game. Then next time down the Bucks forced a miss and Mike Dunleavy pulled down the rebound, but Mario Chalmers stripped him and a couple passes later it became an Allen three. Next trip down Chalmers hit a three of his own and the Heat were off on a 17-3 run that decided the game.
This felt like a lot of other games where the Heat were without Wade this year — LeBron James had 30 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists and was the best player on the floor. Udonis Haslem stepped up with 13 points overall, 9 in the third quarter.
The Bucks have a lot of questions to answer this summer. It starts with whether or not they bring interim coach Jim Boylan back (don't bet on it). Then they face both Monta Ellis and J.J. Redick as unrestricted free agents, and Brandon Jennings as a restricted free agent.
The Bucks are on vacation now and when they come back from it in October they will be a very different team.
The Heat get a week's vacation before they get back to the work of defending their title.
- miamatt - Apr 28, 2013 at 7:41 PM
Also, this was the most regular-season like playoff series I can remember. Never in doubt.
- 1972wasalongtimeago - Apr 28, 2013 at 7:42 PM
Gotta play better though.
- miamatt - Apr 28, 2013 at 7:44 PM
Mike Miller started in Wade's place, not Ray Allen.
- andrewproughcfe - Apr 29, 2013 at 3:34 AM
The Dwayne Wade playoff injuries begin again. By the Eastern Conference finals he'll be on a half a leg, and wearing that big harness to keep his shoulder from popping out.
- miamatt - Apr 29, 2013 at 10:18 AM
And getting sized up for that 3rd championship ring.
- patfic15 - Apr 28, 2013 at 7:48 PM
The weakest 8th seed in recent memory. Might as well have been a first round bye. Bucks knew they didn't stand a chance….regardless of what they may say. Hopefully Rd 2 provides more competition but in the East I doubt it. Won't get good until the CF.
- eboneseagles - Apr 28, 2013 at 8:20 PM
I think the bulls will give them a fight, but the heat should win in 6.
- 1972wasalongtimeago - Apr 29, 2013 at 5:48 AM
This Bucks team was better than the remnants of what used to be the Boston Celtics that's on the floor against the Knicks. Come to think of it, the Bulls are better than the Pacers too.
Gee, guess the 2nd seed got the easier road than the 1st seed.
- 1972wasalongtimeago - Apr 29, 2013 at 6:40 AM
That being said, the Milwaukee fan made things very comfy for the Heat. The Boston fans would never lay down like that, and they did their part yesterday against NY. The Heat have played and thrived in some extremely difficult environments these past 34 months, but these past two games in Milwaukee weren't that.
This won't happen in Chicago, NY, or Indy.
- cantonbound13 - Apr 29, 2013 at 8:17 AM
Your an idiot. Milwaukee shouldn't have even made the playoffs. I'd take Pierce, Garnett & Terry over anyone on the Bucks. Face it, your nervous & already starting up the excuse machine.
- 1972wasalongtimeago - Apr 29, 2013 at 8:43 AM
I'd take Pierce. Other than that, Sanders, Mboute, Ellis, Dunleavy, & Reddick are better than what's left of the rest of the Celtics.
- 1972wasalongtimeago - Apr 29, 2013 at 8:48 AM
That Irslalov guy is good too. The Bucks have (had) a talented team. No way they go down like that if Skiles was still the coach. The Celtics have a very limited team but they have experience, coaching, and a great crowd. Milwaukee had none of those.
- powerpc20 - Apr 29, 2013 at 3:15 PM
Oh man, I don't want to be the grammar/spelling nazi, but Canton, nothing is easier to rip on than someone saying "Your an idiot." You are an idiot, Mr. President. And what is it about "his nervous" vs. yours? Please tell me you did that on purpose…. Your comments get on many of the posters here but you usually don't make mistakes like that… please tell me you are drunk or something…
- supremekingz - Apr 28, 2013 at 7:55 PM
Bucks in 6! No? Oh we'll both teams played hard
- phipfwe76 - Apr 28, 2013 at 8:27 PM

hooray for overdogs. whoo. go heat you the best.
- jimeejohnson - Apr 28, 2013 at 8:47 PM
People have to remember the Heat had the easiest first round series by virtue of their having the best regular season record, by far, in their conference. The west is best will be the real test for the Miami Heat.
- progress2011 - Apr 28, 2013 at 9:49 PM
It is a true pleasure to watch this team play "FUNDAMENTAL" basketball.
No One-Guy playing Hero Ball to glorify his individual performance/ stats or chase individual records.
Ball Movement/ making the right pass, at the right time to get the best shot….Then play hard defense to prevent the opponent from doing the same!!!
That's "FUNDAMENTAL" basketball…..It's beautiful to watch
Thanks Heat
- loungefly74 - Apr 28, 2013 at 10:22 PM
the heat are a freight train…watch out!
- 13arod - Apr 28, 2013 at 10:22 PM
did you guys now that in 2010 -2012 the bucks had a good record v.s the heat so i thought the bucks would put up more of a fight oh well
- nobandwagonridersallowed - Apr 29, 2013 at 12:21 AM
@ 13arod… Yeah, but the regular season and the playoffs are a completely different animal. Any team can get up to play the Miami Heat during the regular season, but put those same average teams against the Heat in an actual playoff series where they can clearly focus on one thing; that's where you get to really see the difference in depth, talent and seasoned vets that are used to those moments.
- saint1997 - Apr 29, 2013 at 4:40 AM
Monty Elly have it all
- dexterismyhero - Apr 29, 2013 at 8:50 AM
Brandon Jennings had a god awful suit on yesterday. WTF!!!

Spo didn't even use his playoff rotation and now Wade gets a week off. Couldn't have gone smoother.

The total flux from resolved sources defines a lower limit to the EBL. Typically, such minima are obtained by measuring the flux in individual resolved sources using standard photometry packages, such as FOCAS (Valdes 1982, Jarvis & Tyson 1981) or SExtractor (Bertin & Arnouts 1996), and summing the flux in the resulting catalog of objects (c.f. Tyson et al. 1989, Madau et al. 1996, 1998). While it is quite straightforward to measure an isophotal magnitude, it is very difficult, if not impossible, to measure the total flux of an object including that flux in regions fainter than the noise level of the local sky. Efforts at measuring galaxy counts often attempt some sort of "total magnitude" correction, either by scaling the isophotal aperture to include roughly twice the isophotal extent (see Bertin et al. 1998 for discussion) or by applying a magnitude correction to galaxies near the detection limit (c.f. Smail et al. 1995).
Fortunately, individual source photometry is not necessary for estimating a lower limit to the EBL in our data. We have developed a simplified method of aperture photometry with which we can measure the flux from the ensemble galaxy population as a whole. We first use SExtractor to identify detectable sources and their isophotal radii (riso) using detection and extraction parameters very similar to those employed in Williams et al. (1996) (see Section 4.4). We can then measure the "sky" surface brightness, µsky, for an image by masking all detected sources (V555 27.5 A B mag) and computing the average surface brightness of the remaining pixels. In doing so, we implicitly assume that extragalactic sources fainter than this limit contribute negligibly to the EBL, so that the apparent background level in the image consists only of foreground sources. (4) To estimate the total surface brightness from extragalactic sources and foregrounds, µobj+sky, we mask all stars and only galaxies brighter than Vcut = 23 A B mag and again compute the average surface brightness of the remaining pixels. We then isolate the flux from resolved sources, the minimum value of EBL23, by differencing the two surface brightness estimates: minEBL23 µobj = ԁobj+sky - µsky. In contrast to standard aperture photometry, ԁobj+sky will always include all of the light from faint galaxies. However µsky can include galaxy flux if the masks are too small.
Not surprisingly, minEBL23 from this method of ensemble photometry is a strong function of the mask size. The growth curve plotted in Figure 18 shows that at least 20% of the flux from galaxies within 4.5 magnitudes of the detection limit (23 < V < 27.5 A B mag) lies beyond 2 × riso for individual galaxies. As discussed in Williams et al. (1996), it is possible for the faintest galaxies detected to have isophotal radii which are smaller than the WFPC2 90% encircled energy radius for a point source (0.3 arcsec, or 3 pixels). To explore the effect of this resolution limit, we also show in Figure 18 the growth curve which results if we impose 0.3 arcsec as a minimum for riso and increase the mask size relative to that new starting radius. Naturally, the improvement in recovered flux is significant: in the HDF catalog of Williams et al. , nearly all galaxies with V606 > 27.5 A B mag are affected by this size requirement. While the instrumental PSF clearly contributes to the increasing recovered flux with radius, the growth curve is not entirely due to PSF effects: the 100% encircled energy radius would be reached by a mask of radius 2.5riso if the smallest galaxies were physically contained within the original isophotal radii.
In addition to the fact that apertures extending to twice each galaxy's isophotal area will not recover all of the galaxy light from detected galaxies, the "local sky" estimates used in standard photometry packages come from regions just beyond the apertures for each source. These sky estimates will undoubtedly include a significant fraction of this missed light, doubly compounding the photometry errors.
While the growth curve in Figure 18 is beginning to level off by 4riso, it is clearly not flat. The covering factor of galaxies to 4riso is roughly 20% in these images, and roughly 30% of the galaxies defined by these apertures overlap. In the HDF images, more than 1800 galaxies are found beyond our detection limit, with a covering factor of roughly 80% to 4riso. These facts suggest that we have reached a confusion limit of sorts, in the sense that the wings of detectable galaxies are overlapping. Moreover, these facts suggest that the wings of detectable galaxies contribute flux to a significant fraction of the pixels used to measure the foreground "sky" level, producing an extragalactic "pedestal" level which blends with the diffuse flux from ZL and DGL. Even though the flux level of our growth curve in Figure 18 is clearly converging, it cannot be used to quantify this pedestal of overlapping galaxy wings.
To estimate the flux contained in the wings of galaxies beyond 4riso in our own images, we have constructed a Monte Carlo simulation of the contribution to a random point on the sky from randomly distributed, detectable galaxies. The surface number density of detectable galaxies was drawn from the published HDF catalog and exponential light profiles were adopted for all galaxies, with scale lengths and central surface brightness matching the galaxies in the EBL and HDF images. Efforts to characterize the light profiles of faint galaxies have produced evidence for both exponential disks and flatter, irregular profiles (for example, see Smail et al. 1995, Driver et al. 1995, Brinchmann et al. 1998, Driver et al. 1998 and references therein). For the faintest galaxies, profiles are unconstrained. We adopted exponential profiles here, in part because they produce the most conservative (smallest) estimate of the light beyond the 4riso apertures. Also, given that the physical scales at those radii are large, we expect to be beyond any central bulges. We also note that the additional flux identified by our models from the faintest galaxies is less than 10% of the flux in galaxy counts by standard methods, and so is the adopted profiles for the faintest galaxies are not a critical issue to the minimum EBL estimates. The simulations are described in Appendix B. For the F555W EBL images, we estimate that the additional flux from galaxies beyond 4riso is roughly 1.1 × 10-10 ergs s-1 cm-2 sr-1 Å-1. The simulations are affected only by the surface brightness limits, galaxy profiles, and the galaxy surface densities adopted. Similar levels are therefore found for the F814W images, for which galaxy parameters and detection limits are very similar to those at F555W. The F555W aperture masks have been used to recover the flux from sources in all three bands for reasons discussed below. In the very low signal-to-noise ratio F300W images, only 20% of the F555W sources are detected, and the F555W aperture masks for those which are detected extend to many more than four times the F300W isophotal detection areas. Due to the larger statistical uncertainties in the flux recovered by ensemble photometry at F300W (see Table 10), simulations of the flux beyond the detection apertures were not warranted.
By using different values for Vcut (23, 24, 25 and 26 AB mag), we can isolate the flux contributed from galaxies in successive magnitude bins. Comparing these measurements with the integrated flux from standard photometry methods (see Section 4.4), we find that roughly 15%, 25%, 45% and 65% of the total flux in successive 1 magnitude bins between 23 < V555 < 27 is contained at radii between 2 riso and 4riso. In our data, galaxies with magnitudes 23 < V555 < 27.5 have 1.5 < µ < 3.5 mag arcsec-2 as shown in Figure 19. These measurements are in broad agreement with the models in the literature for the fraction of flux which can be recovered as a function of µ based on extrapolation of simple exponential profiles (c.f. Disney & Phillipps 1983, Davis 1990, Dalcanton 1998).
The total flux in resolved galaxies as measured by ensemble photometry has two obvious implications for galaxy counts. First, the total flux in galaxy counts based on standard photometry will significantly underestimate the EBL. This point is discussed further in the following sections. Second, because standard photometry will miss fractionally more light from the faintest galaxies, the galaxy counts which result will have an artificially shallow slope at the faint end. Our results allow us to derive "aperture corrections" for faint galaxy photometry as a function of central and isophotal surface brightness. This is done in Paper III. We can use these corrections to recalculate the surface number density of galaxies as a function of magnitude. As we discuss in detail in Paper III, the corrected number counts do not flatten out at the faintest limits of the HDF.
4 We point this out not because we believe that the flux in galaxies beyond the detection limit is negligible, but rather as a reminder that the sum in detected galaxies is by definition a minimum value for the detected EBL. Back.

We've heard your feedback and are continuing to build a better Slickdeals. Click here to check out the updated site.
On the one hand the Elite 47TX is a great receiver (as you also noted), but on the other hand since I plan to use my receiver(s) for a significant amount of surround sound decoding, I needed something more recent with Dolby Digital Plus (etc). That is where the R-972 comes in. Plus I have always been fascinated by Sherwood's high end Newcastle line anyway. In all likelihood I will sell the Elite for whatever I can get and if I later need a 2nd receiver (in addition to the R-972 on its way), I'll get one that can decode the latest surround sound formats. |
This is a pretty nice receiver. Amp section is decent but not super. I got it from A4L earlier this year. Not sure I'd use it anywhere else but in my dedicated theater. The Trinnov is excellent, but the other stuff that was never fixed, e.g. the audio dropouts during codec switches, and the poor upscaling make it not a great choice for elsewhere. WAF was pretty low if watching regular TV and it switches from program to program with dropouts.
Its seems its still somewhat flawed for everyday use.....as I think A4L only sells the units that have the latest updates It seems that the $299 is fair...for the $599 A4L is selling them for not sure it could be worth it to me |
I don't want to knock the unit in terms of the value it provides. Honestly, I think the $599 price was fair, and I'm trying not be biased since I bought it for that. Based upon receivers currently in production and R&D indications, Trinnov will not be available at the consumer level for a few years, if ever again and definately not at this price point. The 3D remapping feature is excellent and so is the curve correction if needed. This is however, not going to be a plug and play situation, and the setup portion takes know-how and patience. The audio dropout situation is what it is... just makes watching regular TV a nuisance. If I were going to build another viewing room I would certainly consider again. |
However no matter how advanced something is...the assumption is that it will do the basics That in itself could be part of the reason that these are on sale at 1 sale a day for $299 Any of the higher end AVR's/preamps...Denon 4520, Onkyo 5010/5509, Yamaha A3020, Pioneer SC67 are not for the faint of heart to set up Though it can be done and the advanced functions used as well I think if any of those units had an issue with basic functionality...which I consider TV viewing to be..it is a major coffin nail in the success of the unit On the advanced capability of the Trinnov...I dont know I have used about every other room correction system out there( from the Asian manufacturers anyway)..Audessey XT32, YPAO, MCACC Since I dont listen to matrix ed channels.....its of lesser importance as I only listen to discrete audio channels and 98% HD video signals as well |
But if you're watching regular TV, it's like program -> ad1 (3-4 seconds mute) -> ad2 (3-4 seconds mute) -> etc etc, then regular program (3-4 seconds mute). It's annoying as heck during commercials, but missing 3-4 seconds of returning to the program you're watching is way more than just annoying. This also means a lot of times if you're time shifting, e.g. fast forwarding through commercials or different points, the audio also cuts in and out. So on regular use this is an epic fail. With regards to Trinnov, it's a unique beast. All of the room correction options you listed above will all do basic curves correction. The XT32 is a pretty impressive system too, especially with proper bass management. All can help smooth the peaks and dips that your room might introduce and give you a flatter, more balanced sound. However, what only Trinnov has, is the ability to remap 3 dimensionally the perceived location of speakers. For example, my main viewing area is a projected 140" screen. With an 8' ceiling and using floor standing tower left and right channels, the center channel is way below the other speakers, nearly 2.5-3 feet lower than the tweeters/midrange in the towers. Trinnov 3D mapping allows the receiver to raise the perceived height of the center channel up to where you specify, and it is amazing - center channel appears to come from the center of the screen. And it does this without any matrixed or extra height channels. It's a pro system and the only of it's kind implemented for consumers. That's what has most audiophiles excited especially since the receiver started out about ~$2K. Question is, can you live with the flaws? Market has voted no, as you can tell by the closeout prices perhaps, but for some it's great. |
at the prices they are going for at A4L ...Sherwood has to be losing money on every unit sold at $299 its just a firesale item pure and simple I have a couple of Onkyo products that click when going back and forth from programs to commercials The others brands I own( or have owned)..Pioneer..Yamaha..dont have this issue interesting comment that you mentioned about the amp section of this unit not being a strong point Maybe the best use for it is as a preamp in a dedicated home theater environment |
Can't believe they still haven't shipped this!
For the steal of a deal price (as others noted, they were a deal at the A4L price which is twice as much as this flash deal) , I can't complain too much about shipping, especially since shipping is free (not bad for a 62.5 lb receiver). I suspect at $299.99 they were trying to expedite the clearing out of the remaining inventory given the apparent 2012 corporate decision to discontinue the Sherwood Newcastle line that I read about on the forums. Hope they ship soon though. |
Thats about par for the course for 1 sale a day something tells me this $299 deal with not repeat itself....these prices indicate along with the discontinuation of this line speaks to the fact that they must have been losing their A%^ of these |
Also 1saleaday isn't supposed to charge people's credit cards *before* the item is shipped. All of our credit cards were charged on Jan 4th and *NOTHING* has shipped almost 20 days later. :-( |

Released: Jan 01st, 1996
Running Time: 73
Director: Anthony Martin
Company: Sunshine Films
Blake Mitchell, Channone, Lovette, Tabitha (I), Tony Martino, Frankie Layne, Jack Hammer, Ron Jeremy
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
Shot in bright sunlight and harsh shadow, edited with a chainsaw, and saddled with amazingly irritating interlocutor Jack Hammer (who sports the ugliest tattoos since Dennis Rodman), this vid nonetheless scores AAA. This is on the strength of Channone's creamy bung, Lovette's playful vitality, and especially the voluptuous sensuality of the always-watchable Tabitha. Lovette overcomes the presence of the Hedgehog, much as Channone overmatches the obnoxious Hammer, while Tony Martino deserves a nod for two strong scenes.

People is countable or uncountable ?
- People is countable or uncountable?
- What is the difference between PEOPLE & PERSONS?
- People is used "IS" OR "ARE"?

1 answer
1. People are uncountable
2. 'People' is all humans unless modified. 'Persons' is a specific identifiable group of people, and always needs to be clarified.
3. When using 'people' the correct tense of 'to be' is ARE.

Clarification, 'people' is countable. We say 'too many people' not 'too much people'.

California dogs, cats and their loyal humans will soon be seeing warning labels on flea and tick collar products containing propoxur, a known carcinogen.
In a law suit filed by the National Resources Defense Council (NRDC)—an environmental protection organization—a settlement was reached in December resulting in the mandatory labeling of products containing the toxin. In agreement with the settlement, 18 retailers including the largest pet supply chains, PetSmart and PETCO, will no longer be able to distribute or sell flea collars containing propoxur without warning labels stating that the products expose animals and humans to a known carcinogen.
In 2009, the NRDC conducted a scientific analysis finding high levels of propoxur and other toxins such as tetrachloryinphos on pet fur, which have been connected to damaging effects on the brain and nervous system and linked to several types of cancer, according to the study. The NRDC then filed the lawsuit in 2009 after retailers ignored a 2007 law calling for them to comply with California's Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requiring businesses operating in California to have warning labels on any products containing carcinogens or toxins harmful to the reproductive system.
The NRDC also has a pending petition with the EPA over their decision to keep flea collars that contain the toxic ingredient on shelves, despite risks to animals and humans, especially small children. The organization seeks to have the products banned from sale as even with warning labels, young children are especially at risk through contact with their pet's fur, where the toxins linger getting onto furniture, carpets and clothing as well as making direct contact with skin.

Help me get rid of this goat noise
So my roommate is a rather terrible person who somehow set my computer to play a goat noise every hour on the hour. I've tried to resolve the issue, but I've had no luck. I might normally find this funny, but I'm rather busy, and I can't deal with this B.S. right now.
He's rather technically savvy with Macs, and when I got home, Terminal was open, but it was just at the normal screen that it's at when you first open it. This leads me to believe that he's done some sort of programming stuff to make this happen. I can't just turn it off in the clock settings in system prefs. The "announce the time" checkbox is unchecked. My computer is normally locked down tight with my password, but I left it unlocked because I needed him to upload a file when it was done rendering because I had to leave the house. I guess I've learned my lesson not to trust him. Any ideas on how to resolve the issue? I'm asking you programmers because I think he used some type of Terminal stuff to make it happen. |

It could be from a crontab... I've never used cron on a Mac but I've used it on Unix / Linux before so I assume it's on Mac, too...
In the terminal, type in Code:
crontab -l Code:
crontab: no crontab for <your user name> Code:
sudo crontab -l Code:
crontab: no crontab for root I believe OS X has another utility that does similar things to cron, called launchctl, but I don't know how it works.
Don't tell me Macs don't last: 2007 iMac, 2007 Mac Mini, 2008 MacBook Air, all Vintage.

You can check if he left any traces in Terminal by opening Terminal and typing in the following line :
history | tail -n 10 Other thing to check if he used launchd is the Console application. Open the Console application and do a search and filter for launchd. See attached tumbnail. Post a screenshot of that as well.

Thanks for all of the replies, guys!
As it happens, I just got him to undo it for me. He sat down and did something with Terminal, and that's that. I didn't really want to ask him, because I didn't want to reward the behavior, but that's that. I appreciate the detailed solutions, though! |

As an update, I've completely figured out the problem. It turns out that my roommate was just screwing with me, and wasn't actually fixing anything, and went along with the story of me accusing him of doing something.
I use Adobe After Effects quite extensively, and when a render fails, it makes a goat noise (just figured this out the other day). Now that's all good and well, but I wasn't doing a render when it made the noise. I use this product called BassJump with my iMac, and sometimes, it'll just spit out random short bits of audio, which is probably some sort of software bug. So, my BassJump held on to that goat noise from an earlier time, and spit it out. weird stuff. |

Real reviews, from customers like you.
We felt a little more information on arrival regarding the t v etc would have been appreciated. Otherwise we were perfectly happy.
wonderful relaxing holiday away from everyday stresses.
The boat was very nice but it lacks a comfortable seating area outside.The upstairs seating was far to low to rest against and the seating inside was again to small to comfortably sit on. The table needs more thought as it was very wobbly. other wise we had a very good holiday.

Weber Marking Systems to Help Companies Meet RFID Compliance Standards
- January 30, 2004, PRESS RELEASE
ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, IL, USA—Weber Marking Systems reports it has established Initiative 2004, a program aimed at providing the necessary systems and supplies to help companies meet RFID compliance standards.
Recently Wal-Mart, a major player driving changes in the packaging realm these days, issued a mandate that requires its top 100 suppliers to place radio frequency identification (RFID) tags on all cases and pallet loads by January 2005. According to Weber president Brad Weber, "Wal-Mart was the first to set a deadline for RFID compliance. The US Department of Defense was next (also for 2005), and we feel that many other retailers and supply-chain operations are bound to follow suit. We pledge that our Initiative 2004 will ensure that our customers will be ready."
Weber adds the company already has started to ensure that equipment, like label printers and printer-applicators, will be available to encode data on RFID tags as well as produce printed bar codes, text, and graphics on the same smart labels.
For more information, contact Weber's marketing director Ann Marie Phaneuf at email@example.com. Visit Weber Marking Systems at webermarking.com.

Burning the Ice | ||||||||
Laura J. Mixon | ||||||||
Tor Books, 541 pages | ||||||||
A review by Jayme Lynn Blaschke
The book starts out on the frozen moon, Brimstone, with Manda, a singleton and outcast of the clone society there, stumbling into a
peculiar mystery. A computer-projected syntellect of Carli, the long-deceased founder of the colony, inexplicably shows Manda a
secret room that is cut off from all electronic surveillance. A room that also holds the frozen corpse of the original Carli. As if
that wasn't enough, the syntellect leaves Manda with an ominous warning that the colony ship that deposited the clones upon Brimstone
decades before never actually departed the system, and even now is in orbit around the planet, monitoring the colony's terraforming efforts.
In the course of her investigations, Manda quickly learns that the ship and the colonists did not part on friendly terms. If the ship
does indeed return to Brimstone, bringing along with it the powerful, virtually immortal "crêche-born" who rule it, the impoverished
colonists would be practically defenseless.
This breathless start is nearly undone by a series of ponderous info-dumps, however, which bogs things down as Mixon goes into detailed
explanations about the alien solar system, the Brimstone environment, orbital mechanics and clone societal structure. Naturally,
with a creation this complex the author needs to hold the reader's hand to a certain extent, but here the reader is hit with too many
blocks of exposition too soon and for too long for the ploy to go unnoticed. Fortunately, once the exposition is out of the way, the
story proceeds at a brisk clip.
Mixon's world building is rigorous and convincing, something very much in the flavor of Clement's best efforts, but a couple of
questions nagged at me and were never satisfactorily resolved: Why was the search for and discovery of sea floor vents such an issue
given the ample evidence of geothermal evidence around the colony itself? And where did all that free oxygen on Brimstone come
from, given the fact there was no native ecology capable of generating such an atmosphere?
I found it odd that these simple questions were ignored or glossed over, given the obvious effort put forth to develop other aspects
of Brimstone in logical fashion.
More impressive than Mixon's careful world building is her cloned society populating Brimstone. It is a marvel, hitting all the
right notes. Going well beyond clichè, the cloned society here is both terrifying and rational. Modern society's familiarity with
cloning presents a challenge that is tough to overcome, namely, why would a clone society be any different from one of identical
twins, or even fraternal siblings? Mixon undercuts this with a fascinating, multi-generational structure of clone lineages. All
clones -- with the exception of Manda, whose twin died during gestation -- are part of a pair or even a triplet, joined in a
nearly telepathic bond by advanced technology. The harsh environment drives the members of each clone lineage to draw strength
and comfort from each other, all the while engaged in intense competition with other clone lines for prestige and societal
standing. What could easily have degenerated into absurdity or farce comes off as very serious and straightforward, owing an
obvious debt to the Hainish societal forerunners from Le Guin's various stories.
And lest it gets lost in the shuffle, special praise must be reserved for Mixon's Brimstone natives. As a reader who particularly
loathes bipedal, humanoid extraterrestrials, I found the Brimstonians extremely interesting and plausibly alien. The human
protagonists were able to deduce too much, too quickly about the aliens without much more than intuition to guide them, but
that's more of a quibble than anything else. More than a quibble is the fact that just as juicy details about the aliens
begin to bubble forth, the plot whisks off in another direction entirely, using these fascinating creatures as macguffins,
mere catalysts for the pell-mell sequence of events that lead up to the grand finale.
And that may be the biggest flaw in Burning the Ice: it's too big, too sprawling, too all-encompassing. There are
tons of ideas here, enough to fuel the fires of several novels, at least. But with a handful of exceptions, most of these
grand ideas are given short shrift simply because there isn't enough room to explore them thoroughly in a novel that already
tops 500 pages. There are at least two more books here that cry out to be written, and hopefully, when she has time to
linger, Mixon will return to Brimstone someday and do just that.

What's on Tap for Monday, August 18…
Bartolo Colon (11-10, 3.85 ERA) will face RHP Kyle Hendricks (4-1, 1.79) at 12:10 pm Monday as the Mets and Cubs conclude their four-game series at Citi Field…
Weekend Review…
Rafael Montero tossed seven terrific innings, but Starlin Castro hit a first-pitch home run to start the ninth inning against Jenrry Mejia and the Mets lost to the Cubs, 2-1, on Sunday afternoon.
RHP Daisuke Matsuzaka will likely start Thursday at Single-A Brooklyn, but may not return to the Mets until Sept. 1, when major league rosters expand.
David Wright sat out Sunday's game with a sore shoulder. He is not yet scheduled to have an MRI, instead he will get treatment and be reevaluated Monday, the team said >> Read more.
Jacob deGrom, who threw a bullpen session on Sunday, said he expects to start Saturday against the Dodgers in Los Angeles.
SNY's Gary Cohen and Keith Hernandez took part in the Ice Bucket Challenge in support of ALS research and awareness >> Watch here.
The Mets officially released Chris Young after designating him for assignment on August 8.
The Mets just have to finish 22-15 to secure a .500 season. Sandy was right, this is the "turnaround season".
They're developing young players and that takes patience.
Duda was chosen as the first baseman and power hitter and was placed in the 6 hole. He became comfortable, moved up and now is a solid cleanup hitter.
den Dekker has been tried at lead off before with dreadful results. Let the kid learn to hit in the majors before moving him to leadoff. The formula has worked before.
Meija is playing hurt but yesterday did provide a game for Montero to work off. The Mets aren't hitting but did win the first two games. If they win today, that will do it -- you win three of four, it's a good series. Wright is also probably playing hurt. Toss in Granderson, yeah, you have a problem. The team needs Wright to get better and to get at least one more bat, probably a second one. Lagares, D'Arnaud and Duda are doing well, which is key for the future. Dekker or KN also might be useful.
Seems like major decisions have to me made here soon. The first objective of building a decent pitching staff has been accomplished. Now the focus has to be how they want to build this offense. The idea at the start of this season, to bring in power hitters and have a one base at a time home run hitting lineup has gone up in smoke. 50 years of watching Mets baseball I've never seen a Mets team built solely on power work out well. I think SA has to rethink his whole philosophy on offense. I hope he's up to it. Pitching, good defense, some speed and contact hitters I believe are the way to go. I've seen it work before, and San Francisco is a good example that it still works.
How badly do the Mets need to add offense to their entire system? The top three Minor League teams ( Vegas, Binghamton, and St Lucke) and the Major League team TOTALED 1 run and 13 hits combined yesterday.
Hey Sandy why is that Terry can't manage this team to some sorted steady improvement every year but the Marlins who lost 100 games and won 62 last year is already at the 62 win mark with 38 games remaining, at .500 ball and without their ace Fernandez. This is an example that a manager can get more out of his team. But here we are at year 4 with Terry and it's the same 75 wins at the end of the year. Wasn't 2014 the year this team was suppose to start winning since Bay's and Santana's contract were coming off the books?
May I make a suggestion? The offense has been putrid, even with the release of CY. Since it doesn't look like we are gonna get Stanton or anybody else anytime soon maybe shuffling the lineup could help. In fact it looks like the only thing you can do. I don't understand Collins reluctance to try MDD in the lead off spot. Or his insistence in hitting Grander son there. Murphy looks like he needs a day off and Duda is being pitched around. A spark of some kind is desperately needed. Try something Terry even if it's wrong.
The only redeeming quality of the NL East standings is seeing how far the Phillies have fallen.
@theglider I totally get what you are saying but if we went by prior results den dekker wouldn't even be here.
But since he's come back up he's had an OBP of .346. Little bit better than Granderson at .298 no?
And because he supposedly shortened his swing. I'm not saying the kid is the answer but Grandy is not a lead off hitter.
He's going to get better pitches to hit in the lead off spot with Murphy behind him than he will in the 6th spot with Lagares behind him. He's had experience as a lead off hitter and we are struggling to score runs. Why not
As well as the fact that IF he can be successful then Murphy is going to get more fastballs to hit with a legit SB threat on first.
@matmil The Mets do not play half their games in Citizen's Bank Park. You can afford to have power hitters on a team that plays in a bandbox like the Picket Castle up in the Bronx, however, CIti Field plays bigger. The Mets can take advantage of that if they used their speed and emphasized contact hitting. A team like the '85 Cardinals would be very successful in Citi Field, but I guess that brand of old school baseball doesn't compute in saber statistics very well.
Perhaps they should take a few lessons from Joe Madden.
@matmil Dead on matmil. My concern is that seems to be Sandy's plan. He has talked previously about the HR's. He's infatuated with the HR and ignores the strike outs. So he'll take chances on guys like Granderson and CY who can hit a few HR's but strike out a ton and hit .220ish. I have no confidence that signings like those will not continue
According to SA this is a 90 win team. He is delusional. Miami makes the Mets look incompetent.
SA and Terry both are obsessed with the home run. They sit around, no aggressiveness on the bases , waiting for the homer. And they continue to lose these low scoring games because they don't know how to squeeze a run out of a game. A walk to the lead off man, allow him to steal second, get him to third by hitting behind him, and a sack fly to score him. The best play in baseball, a run without a hit, they should try it sometime.
@matmil It isn't a 90 win team. That was one line and it's stupid to take it seriously.
He later said something like this being a .500 team or something ... that is fair.
@matmil Can he please get Grandy and his .298 OBP in the leadoff spot out of the leadoff spot? Try MDD there and maybe with his speed you can try to generate some runs.
Playing small ball isn't exciting, to some, they want to see Dave Kingman. But if you want to win championships instead of watching moon rockets it's the way to go.
@matmil Especially if you are struggling to score runs. Try a straight steal, try a hit and run. Do whatever you have to do to manufacture some runs.
It's just so frustrating to watch them just stagnate and Terry won't try to do something, anything to stir things up.
