Vacations Shouldn't Make You Vomit: Why I Won't Go on a Cruise
By Melissa Ford on January 28, 2014
BlogHer Original Post
Other people seem to like cruises. They rave about how it's one-stop vacation fun: endless buffets of food, daily planned activities, and kid camps. But even after having friend after friend come back from their cruise vacations tanned and rested, I have no desire to ever step foot on a cruise ship. Stories like the 600 passengers that just fell ill with vomiting and diarrhea on a Royal Caribbean cruise this week seals the deal.
The cruise ship believes the culprit was norovirus.
This problem is so common on cruise ships that the CDC has a page on their site solely for tracking these cruise ship outbreaks. We're only a few weeks into 2014 and there have already been two reported cases of cruise ship outbreaks. There were nine in 2013. 16 in 2012. And those are just the cases that fit into the very strict guidelines for reporting it to the CDC, not all of the cases where people have become ill on cruise ships from year to year. The reports go back to 1994, and with the exception of a few low and a few high years, the number remains fairly constant. In other words, despite knowing that cruise ships create a perfect breeding ground for outbreaks of illness, we haven't perfected the art of keeping passengers safe.
Let me break this on down for you: a cruise is nothing more than locking yourself in an enormous, floating hotel THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE. Does this hotel take you somewhere cool or pretty? Sometimes. But here's the thing, you can get to cool and pretty places and even have nonstop food and babysitting service without locking yourself into a floating hotel with no escape. Really, no escape. Everyone is vomiting around you, and you just have to sit there and wait for the norovirus to reach you because you are surrounded by water.
And you've paid a huge price for the privilege of having a vomit-filled vacation.
There are plenty of precautions you can put in place to help stop the spread of norovirus. For instance, hand washing, cleaning surfaces, and carefully washing fruits and vegetables (which may be carriers of the virus) all can help stop the virus from spreading. But, according to the CDC, 80% of the norovirus cases take place between November and April -- which also happens to be high season for Caribbean cruises. The reason why cruise ships pose a big threat comes down to three factors: "close living quarters, shared dining areas, and rapid turnover of passengers." According to the CDC,
When the ship docks, norovirus can be brought on board in contaminated food or water or by passengers who were infected while ashore. Repeated outbreaks on consecutive cruises may also result from infected crew or environmental contamination. This is because norovirus can persist on surfaces and is resistant to many common disinfectants.
So, no cruise ships for me. This lady is sticking to vacations she can leave on her own timetable.
Has the coverage of illness outbreaks on cruise ships made you rethink this vacation option?

Square root
In mathematics, the square root of a non-negative real number x is denoted and represents the non-negative real number whose square (the result of multiplying the number by itself) is x.For example, since .
This example suggests how square roots can arise when solving quadratic equations such as or, more generally, .
Extending the square root concept to negative real numbers gives rise to imaginary and complex numbers.
Square roots are often irrational numbers, requiring an infinite, non-repeating series of digits in their decimal representation. For example, cannot be written exactly in finite or repeating decimal form. Equivalently, it cannot be represented by a fraction whose numerator and denominator are integers. Nonetheless, it is exactly the length of the diagonal of a square with side length 1. The discovery that is irrational is attributed to the Pythagoreans.
The square root symbol (√) was first used during the 16th century. It has been suggested that it originated as an altered form of lowercase r, representing the Latin radix (meaning "root").
The following important properties of the square root functions are valid for all positive real numbers x and y:
The square root function generally maps rational numbers to algebraic numbers; √x is rational if and only if x is a rational number which, after cancelling, is a fraction of two perfect squares. In particular, √2 is irrational.
In geometrical terms, the square root function maps the area of a square to its side length.
Suppose that x and a are reals, and that x2=a, and we want to find x. A common mistake is to "take the square root" and deduce that x = √a. This is incorrect, because the square root of x2 is not x, but the absolute value |x|, one of our above rules. Thus, all we can conclude is that |x| = √a, or equivalently x = ±√a.
In calculus, for instance when proving that the square root function is continuous or differentiable or when computing certain limitss, the following identity often comes handy:
The function f(x) = √x has the following graph, made up of half a parabola lying on its side:
The function is continuous for all non-negative x, and differentiable for all positive x (it is not differentiable for x=0 since the slope of the tangent there is &infin). Its derivative is given by
This algorithm works equally well in the p-adic numbers, but cannot be used to identify real square roots with p-adic square roots; it is easy, for example, to construct a sequence of rational numbers by this method which converges to +3 in the reals, but to -3 in the 2-adics.
Write the number in decimal and divide it into pairs of digits starting from the decimal
point. The numbers are laid out similar to the long division algorithm and the final square root will appear above the original number.
For each iteration:
Computing square roots
Pocket calculatorss typically implement good routines to compute the exponential function and the natural logarithm, and then compute the square root of x using the identity
The same identity is exploited when computing square roots with logarithm tables or slide rules.Babylonian method
A commonly used algorithm for approximating √x is known as the "Babylonian method" and is based on Newton's method. It proceeds as follows:
This is a quadratically convergent algorithm, which means that the number of correct digits of r roughly doubles with each step.An exact "long-division like" algorithm
This method, while much slower than the Babylonian method, has the advantage that it is exact: if the given number has a square root whose decimal representation terminates, then the algorithm terminates and produces the correct square root after finitely many steps. It can thus be used to check whether a given integer is a square number.
Example: What is the square root of 152.2756? ____1__2._3__4_
| 01 52.27 56 1
x 01 1*1=1 1
____ __
00 52 22
2x 00 44 22*2=44 2
_______ ___
08 27 243
24x 07 29 243*3=729 3
_______ ____
98 56 2464
246x 98 56 2464*4=9856 4
00 00 Algorithm terminates: answer is 12.34
Although demonstrated here for base 10 numbers, the procedure works for
any base, including base 2. In the description above, 20 means double
the number base used, in the case of binary this would really be
100. The algorithm is in fact much easier to perform in base 2, as in every step only the two digits 0 and 1 have to be tested. See Shifting nth-root algorithm.
Pell's equation
Pell's equation yields a method for finding rational approximations of square roots of integers.
Ex: Square root of 27 is:
To every non-zero complex number z there exist precisely two numbers w such that w2 = z. The usual definition of √z is as follows: if z = r exp(iφ) is represented in polar coordinates with -π < φ ≤ π, then we set √z = √r\ exp(iφ/2). Thus defined, the square root function is holomorphic everywhere except on the non-positive real numbers (where it isn't even continuous). The above Taylor series for √(1+x) remains valid for complex numbers x with |x| < 1.
When the number is in rectangular form the following formula can be used:
Note that because of the discontinuous nature of the square root function in the complex plane, the law √(zw) = √(z)√(w) is in general not true. Wrongly assuming this law underlies several faulty "proofs", for instance the following one showing that -1 = 1:
However the law can only be wrong up to a factor -1, √(zw) = ±√(z)√(w), is true for either ± as + or as - (but not both at the same time). Note that √(c2) = ±c, therefore √(a2b2) = ±ab and therefore √(zw) = ±√(z)√(w), using a = √(z) and b = √(w).
If A is a positive definite matrix or operator, then there exists precisely one positive definite matrix or operator B with B2 = A; we then define √A = B.
More generally, to every normal matrix or operator A there exist normal operators B such that B2 = A. In general, there are several such operators B for every A and the square root function cannot be defined for normal operators in a satisfactory manner. Positive definite operators are akin to positive real numbers, and normal operators are akin to complex numbers.Finding square roots in the head
Based on Pell's equation there is a methode to calculate the square root in the head, by simply subtraction of odd numbers.1) 27-1 = 26
2) 26-3 = 23
3) 23-5 = 18
4) 18-7 = 11
5) 11-9 = 2 First number is 5
2 x 100 = 200 and 5 x 20 + 1 = 101
1) 200-101 = 99 Next number is 1
99 x 100 = 9900 and 51 x 20 + 1 = 1021
1) 9900-1021 = 8879
2) 8879-1023 = 7856
3) 7856-1025 = 6831
4) 6831-1027 = 5804
5) 5804-1029 = 4775
6) 4775-1031 = 3744
7) 3744-1033 = 2711
8) 2711-1035 = 1676
9) 1676-1037 = 639 Next number is 9
The result gives us 5.19 as the square root of 27Continued fraction methods
Quadratic irrationals, that is numbers involving square roots in the form (a+√b)/c, have periodic continued fractions. This makes them easy to calculate recursively given the period. For example, to calculate √2, we make use of the fact that √2-1 = [0;2,2,2,2,2,...], and use the recurrence relation
to obtain √2-1 to some specific precision specified through n levels of recurrence, and add 1 to the result to obtain √2.Square roots of complex numbers
where the sign of the imaginary part of the root is the same as the sign of the imaginary part of the original number.
The third equality cannot be justified. (See invalid proof.)Square roots of matrices and operators

Rob Zombie
Rob Zombie was born as Robert Cummings in Haverhill, Massachusetts on January 12, 1965. He was the former lead singer for the rock/metal group White Zombie, and later became a successful solo artist, disbanding the group after his first solo album, the 1998 release Hellbilly Deluxe, sold more in the first week than any of the band's albums ever did. Remixes of some of its tracks were released on 1999's American Made Music To Strip By, followed up by the studio release The Sinister Urge in 2001.
In 2003 he made his directorial debut with the release of the film 'House of 1000 Corpses' to a lukewarm reception, though it garnered quite a cult-following. Its sequel, 'The Devil's Rejects,' was released in 2005. It was received much better than the first film, even getting the 'thumbs up' from well-known film critic Roger Ebert. Also in his films is his wife Sheri Moon Zombie.
In March 2006, he released his newest album, entitled "Educated Horses". The album was a more stripped down, raw rock record, and quite a departure from the techno-industrial feel of the old Zombie albums. While this change, along with Zombie's change of appearance (he lost the dreadlocks and went back to his natural hair color, blonde), upset many of his fans, it allowed Rob to experiment with his style without deviating from his core fan base.
Growing up, Rob had a fascination with horror films, and has stated that he always "wanted to be Alice Cooper, Steven Spielberg, Bela Lugosi, and Stan Lee. While raising their sons, Rob's parents worked in a carnival, but they chose to leave after a riot broke out and tents were set on fire. Zombie recalled the experience in an interview, stating, "Everybody's pulling out guns, and you could hear guns going off. I remember this one guy we knew, he was telling us where to go, and some guy just ran up to him and hit him in the face with a hammer – just busted his face wide open. My parents packed up real quick, and we took off."
Cummings graduated from Haverhill High School in 1983. He moved to New York City, and he began attending Parsons School of Design where he met eventual girlfriend Sean Yseult.
Presently, Rob Zombie lives in Woodbury, Connecticut.
Robert Bartleh Cummings (born January 12, 1965), better known by his stage name, Rob Zombie, is an American musician, film director, screenwriter and film producer.
Five of his albums have been certified platinum and another two have been certified gold, making him the artist with the most gold and platinum discs on the Geffen Records label.
Zombie has also established a successful career as a film director, creating the movies House of 1000 Corpses, The Devil's Rejects, the 2007 remake of Halloween.
In 1996, Zombie collaborated with Alice Cooper on the song "Hands of Death (Burn Baby Burn)" for the X-Files tie-in CD Songs in the Key of X. It was Zombie's first work outside of his band White Zombie. The song was nominated for a Grammy for Best Metal Performance the same year, but lost to Nine Inch Nails for their song "Happiness in Slavery".
The song entitled "The Great American Nightmare" is the opening theme for the Howard Stern Show on Sirius Satellite Radio.

COLUMBIA — The National Weather Service is predicting more storms in Boone County.
Boone County is under a flash flood watch until 7 p.m. Saturday for parts of central and northeast Missouri, and the weather service predicted thunderstorms.
The next round of storms could produce several inches of rain, as well as a "moderate risk for severe storms," which could produce large hail, damaging winds and isolated tornadoes, the weather service said in an advisory Saturday morning.
Heavy rain last night left one vehicle stuck in water at the intersection of Carter Lane and Providence.
Battalion Chief Steven Sapp, a spokesman for the Columbia Fire Department, said drivers should be cautious when thinking about driving on the roads.
He said those with SUVs and pickup trucks might think their vehicles can cross water-covered roadways, but only a few inches of water can cause a vehicle to float.
"Turn around and don't drown," Sapp said. "It's that simple."

Help! I want to play high-end computer games on my big screen TV.
Rod Macdonald | I have a 55" Toshiba TV (800 lines of resolution). From what I've read I think I need either a scan converter or a liner doubler to make the image quality on the TV good enough to accept the computer images. Does anyone have any experience using either of these types of products? Have you ever used them for computer games? Any advice? Thanks in advance for your help! |
Anonymous | http://www.comelsoft.com/images/videocards/009735.htm try that site i believe some of the newer video cards have a tv out, so you dont even need a converter |
Chris | You need a transcoder. Models to consider is the AUDIO AUTHORITY Part #: 9A60 ($120) or KEY DIGITAL Part #: KD-VTCA1 ($160) the KEY DIGITAL model has a higher bandwidth. |

Accommodations and location for the price.
Evening front desk staff was not very friendly. There was one gentleman who went above and beyond to be helpful.
Great location
Picture of one of the rooms showed2 Queensboro beds. Mine had a king bed in both rooms.
I loved the quietness and the actual space of the rental. Nicely furnished and zero noise from people on either side and outside. The staff is great!
There is absolutely nothing to dislike about this place. Beautiful surroundings and grounds.
Bed was nice. Shower was good with a detachable shower head. The pool looked decent but I didn't try it out.
A lot of construction was going on. This place is in need of remodeling and they were doing that while we stayed there. We paid $120 for a room there and it was definitely not worth that price. This is a 2 star hotel in my opinion. It smelled kind of musty.
The staff was friendly, as excited about our Marine graduate as we were. The breakfast was better than expected, the make your own waffles were delicious and they had a rotating menu which included veggie omelets, biscuits w/ sausage gravy, scrambled eggs, sausage, cereals, muffins, bagels, juices and coffee. Baked cookies each evening! The room was clean, bed was very comfortable and smelled like fresh clean linens.
The pool was a little smaller than expected, but larger than the pool at other family members hotel. My daughter still loved it.
We liked the room. It was bigger than most. There was a beautiful view of the marsh from the room and parking area. Very convenient for sightseeing in Beaufort and the nearby islands.
All of the heated foods were gone at breakfast (8:30). The fruit mix was nearly empty. Grabbed a bagel and checked again later. Still no eggs. The seating area was only half full.
Great location in easy walking distance to activities and sites. Lovely B&B with fine breakfast.
Staff was nice-location was good-
little things like no conditioner in room- but the main thing is we traveled to meet friends and at 9:15 some old bitty complained we were being loud and she was trying to sleep-which we crash out at 10 anyway- so maybe keep the old farts on one side
The location is good . The facility is bright. Easy to access.
Great decor, excellent bathroom with a relaxing deep tub.
Great location and comfortable for a long stay.
On our previous stay we had access to an additional pool with a lazy river and additional children's activity. Unfortunately we were told that this time we would have to schedule and attend a time share sales pitch before we would be given a 2 day pass. The front office staff is less than friendly and the room had roaches.
Location and nice staff.
The bed and the lack of staff.
value, very clean
Air condition system was VERY loud
The hotel was centrally located. Very close to outlet shopping but a bit of a drive to the beach. From our room we had a view of the intercoastal waterway. Very beautiful. Hotel was very quiet and comfortable. Staff was very friendly.
Not a whole lot I didn't like I would defintely stay here again if I was not planning on going to the beach. We were in town for shopping and golf.
The location was OUTSTANDING! It was about a mile from P.I.'s front gate! The front desk staff was very friendly and very helpful! Internet was available, though limited. Overall, it gets the job done, which was being on-hand for son's graduation from boot camp! Better hotels were far more costly, and further away... I have another son who may be joining next year, and I would stay in this hotel again for another 2 nights!
Heater didn't work. Called front desk, No extra blankets were available! But they did switch my room where the heater worked well, though it was rather loud... The Internet kept disconnecting. Found several roaches in the shower, besides that, the room was averagely clean... Breakfast was horrible... they provided frozen waffles, cereal, and oatmeal. They only provided a basket of tired looking apples for fruit. The room is what it is... a place to stay while visiting Parris Island... nothing more! There are worse places to stay! This hotel is about $45-55/night any place else.
Location close to the USMC training base was important to me.
One gets one what one pays for and in this case I feel like I over paid.
We had no problems during our stay, everything was as expected. Comfortable beds and clean rooms. Hot breakfast was very good with plenty of variety and the staff did a great job keeping it full.
If i had one complaint it would be the pillows. Nobody in the family really liked the pillows. Just not comfortable, but the comfortable bed made up for it.
Staff was very personable. Breakfast was amazing. Easy to find. We were totally satisfied and will return.
A table in the room would have been nice.
Friendly & Clean
rooms look nice (decorating wise) recently renovated decent price
hair all through our bathroom and stuck to our towels loud noise throughout most of the day due to continuing renovations some (not all) of the staff was rude

We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

Former Southampton academy chief Huw Jennings has defended Arsenal's youth system, though believes Theo Walcott joined the Gunners at too young an age.
"Almost all Theo's learning has been in and around the first team and that's difficult for a 16-year-old. That 16 to 18 phase is critical to the long-term development of the player. If you're not working morning and afternoon, for four days a week, then where are you going to get the development time?" asks Jennings, who also cites Aston Villa, Manchester City and Middlesbrough as clubs reaping the benefits of giving their kids a chance.
"Surely the penny has got to start dropping that investment in youth will pay dividends. It's a challenge for me to try to encourage all the clubs to see it like that. Some of the clubs that are struggling now are victims of poor planning. But I do worry about the very high contracts that seem to be paid to young players which, in pure footballing terms, they do not always merit. They almost seem to me to be a disincentive for them to go on and achieve."
Jennings is not opposed to foreign signings, as long as they raise standards and do not block the path of an equally talented homegrown player. In fact, he would encourage British youngsters to develop their careers abroad so they can return with more to offer.
"Nobody has said that the introduction of Zola and Bergkamp was negative because everyone has learned a lot from them," he told the Daily Mail.
"I see it as a challenge for us to improve and develop our standards. What I really hope is the clubs have a game plan when they are bringing in players from other countries. It can't just be about grabbing the player who is out of favour at club X in country Y because he might just help you get three points to stay up. That short-termism is the long-term road to folly."

Overview of content related to 'identifier'
This page provides an overview of 293 articles related to 'identifier', listing most recently updated content first. Note that filters may be applied to display a sub-set of articles in this category (see FAQs on filtering for usage tips). Select this link to remove all filters.
An identifier is a unique expression in a written format either by a code, by numbers or by the combination of both to distinguish variations from one to another among a class of substances, items, or objects. For living organisms and the structural identifications of objects, identifiers could be more complicated. In computer science, Identifiers (IDs) are lexical tokens that name entities. The concept is analogous to that of a "name." Identifiers are used extensively in virtually all information processing systems. Naming entities makes it possible to refer to them, which is essential for any kind of symbolic processing. (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: Identifier)

A Thread of Ariadnes |
One of my previous lecturers jokingly said that once you had a title, logo and an acronym for your project, 80% of the work was done. Except I'm not so sure she was joking, now. Ariadne took (relatively) little time to be decided on as a title, but as it turned out, many other projects around the world, and one in particular in the UK, shared this greek mythological name. This has caused problems; for example, lists of digital libraries/training projects occasionally get us mixed up with the Ariadne project at Lancaster. Dr. David Nichols from this Lancaster project gives a brief run-down of other projects that have taken the name Ariadne. |

These could easily pass as breakfast cookies. Well, if I hadn't glazed them and filled them with cream cheese frosting. Yours look beautiful!
Comment by Carol Peterman— August 3, 2010 #
I think I might try these (any excuse for cookies for breakfast), though I'm thinking I'll probably swap the raisins for some dried cranberries, but that's just me. Looks good!
