On June 5, the FTC announced that it has added a payment processor as a defendant in an existing suit against a debt relief firm that the FTC alleges operated a credit card interest rate reduction scam. The FTC claims that the debt relief firm cold-called consumers and charged them up-front fees for promises of credit card interest rate reductions that the firm never obtained. The FTC charges that the payment processor knew, or consciously avoided knowing, the supposedly illegal nature of the operation and facilitated allegedly deceptive and abusive telemarketing acts or practices in violation of the Telemarketing Sales Rule. The FTC also alleges that the processor ignored the "alarmingly high" chargeback rates.

In a perfect world the Anaheim Ducks would only be required to show up for the third period and begin their season in February. Ever since their Stanley Cup season in 2006-07, the Ducks, like clockwork, have gotten off to slow starts. Their record through 17 games the past five seasons is a combined 36-38-11. That includes a 6-8-3 start to this season, with only two victories in their past 12 games after Sunday's dud, a 3-2 loss to the Minnesota Wild at home. Expectations were hardly grand for Anaheim this season, yet it has managed to become one of the early disappointments this season. A team with Hart Trophy winner Corey Perry, Bobby Ryan, Ryan Getzlaf and Teemu Selanne ranks dead last in scoring at two goals a game. The Ducks have given up the first goal nine times in 17 games and their third-ranked power play unit from last season is 23rd. On Sunday they fell into a 3-0 hole against the 29th-worst scoring team in the league, and there weren't many answers given in a funere...

Ye Old Laptop as a Server
Resourceful people can use an old desktop as a server of some sort, but they also may have an old laptop around collecting dust. Although most of today's desktop environment software runs too slowly on these older laptops, you may not want to get rid of yours yet. These cast-offs easily can be transformed not only into a low-power server, but also into a mobile VoIP and Web server.
Let's look a three Linux distros with this in mind and test two different Web servers. The Ye Old Laptop used in this article is a Dell Latitude with a 1.0GHz Intel Pentium III Mobile CPU and 256MB of RAM. Keep in mind that Web 2.0 software may be too much for these old cast-offs. So, if you need to serve the latest-and-greatest flashy content, you're better off buying a new desktop computer. The server configuration I used and tested on every Linux distribution is Apache 1.3.34, Lighttpd 1.4.13, PHP 5 and MySQL Server 5.
Xubuntu is an official Ubuntu distribution for old or slow systems. The main difference between it and Ubuntu is that Xubuntu uses the Xfce window manager instead of GNOME. An X-less Ubuntu or Kubuntu installation should have the same performance results as an X-less Xubuntu. With X running, Xubuntu requires at least 128MB of RAM, but the minimum requirements for the Xubuntu Alternate CD without X are 64MB of RAM. It uses the Ubuntu repositories, which are filled with programs that satisfy nearly every system administrator's needs. I installed Apache 1.3 and Lighttpd 1.4, MySQL Server 5 and PHP 5 with apt-get install apache lighttpd and apt-get install mysql-server-5.0 php5. For some reason, I had to install Apache 2.0 (and all its dependencies) to get PHP to work with Apache 1.3. After I got it working, I then uninstalled Apache 2.0.
After configuring Apache and Lighttpd, I stress-tested the Web server over a 100Mb Ethernet connection with Siege, a benchmarking and HTTP regression-testing utility. It is designed to let Web developers measure the performance of both their code and their servers to see how well the server functions on the Internet under a heavy load. Siege supports basic authentication, the HTTP and HTTPS protocols, and even cookies. This utility allows system administrators to hit their Web server with both a concurrent and configurable number of simulated users.
I generated a 5KB file with dd and ran a stress test with siege 192.168.1.179/5kb -c10 -r10 on a fairly new computer, simulating ten clients refreshing ten times each second (a fairly heavy load). To improve results, I turned off all unneeded services, including Xorg, Samba, the FTP server and the IRC server. If you run Siege with the -b command-line argument, it runs the test without any delay for throughput benchmarking. This means that the server gets all the hits at once (but that isn't a very realistic scenario). Without the -b flag, Siege invokes each simulated user with a delay of at least one second. Table 1 shows the performance differences between Apache 1.3 and Lighttpd 1.4.13.
Table 1. Performance Differences between Apache 1.3 and Lighttpd 1.4.13 on Xubuntu with a 5KB File
|Ten clients, ten hits/second, 5KB file
|Apache 1.3
|Lighttpd 1.4.13

|11.00 trans/sec
|12.5 trans/sec
|Longest transaction
|3.00 secs
|0.04 secs
|Shortest transaction
|0.00 secs
|0.00 secs
The tests performed on Xubuntu 7.04 (Table 1) reveal that the transaction rate is high, and the shortest transfer time is about a millisecond or less. (Siege can't calculate anything below a millisecond.) This is mainly because my network consists of only 20 feet of cable. Depending on your connection, testing over the Internet will show a greater latency than over a local network. According to the Siege man page, concurrency is the average number of simultaneous connections. When the number rises, the server performance decreases, especially on slower hardware.
Table 2. Performance Differences between Apache 1.3 and Lighttpd 1.4.13 on Xubuntu with a 1MB File
|Ten clients, ten hits/second, 1MB file
|Apache 1.3
|Lighttpd 1.4.13
|Time elapsed
|12 secs
|12 secs
|Data transferred
|Server response time
|0.5 secs
|0.4 secs
|Transaction rate
|8.3 trans/sec
|8.2 trans/sec
|Longest transaction
|1.30 secs
|0.75 secs
|Shortest transaction
|0.1 secs
|0.1 secs
The tests performed on the 1MB file (Table 2) show that under a heavy load, Lighttpd 1.4.13 performs the best with smaller files (such as blog posts without any pictures). Performance, however, is still higher than Apache with 5KB files. Interestingly, the heavier the load, the better Apache performed. Results from tests on 5MB files under a very heavy load of 50 clients at ten connections per second showed a 0.1 second higher response time and a 0.1MB/sec higher throughput than Lighttpd. Lighttpd still had shorter transaction times that were four seconds less than Apache though.
On Xubuntu, Lighttpd is the fastest performing server for static documents, although Apache follows close behind. For best results in Xubuntu, turn off all unneeded services, so that if the server gets a heavy load, it will have a few more resources to improve speed. I found Xubuntu to be quite fast and easy to get running, but there are other distros to consider, such as Vector Linux.

Recent Swan Lake Reviews
Loved the Lake House
Time to relax with family. The house and yard is situated right on the lake and many activities to keep everyone occupied. The many choices of boats to use was wonderful for all of us, yard games, fires at night, ability to cook outside, and overall space to move around and just enjoy yourself. It was a great experience.

Jason Stark seems to think so.
http://www.jlcauvin.com/wordpress/wp...2009/04/lb.bmpThe Nationals decided months ago that the only sensible way to manage the hysteria that will surround Strasburg's debut was to make sure his first start was in Washington. But they had only five home games scheduled -- all this week -- in a span of 24 games between May 18 and June 3.
So why is the June 4 opener of their next homestand such a top Stub Hub attraction? It sure isn't because those red-hot Cincinnati Reds will be in town.

HICKORY, N.C.-- A Hickory teen arrested on charges of shooting and hacking to death hisroommate posted a Facebook message asking God for forgiveness.
The Hickory Daily Record reported that a message posted by 19-year-old Michael Anderson early Monday also contained the phrase my killing starts tonight.
Police sayAnderson called 911 early Monday morning and told an operator that he'd just shot his roommate, 36-year-old Stephen Starr, and taken an axe to Starr's head.
The attack happened at a home on Ruth Drive in Mountain View where the two men lived.
Neighbors say it's typically a quiet road and they're shocked by the horrific crime that occurred on their street.
There were some carvings on his body, said neighbor Barry Leatherman, describing the crime scene.
Investigators say it appears that Anderson used a hatchet to carve a word on Starr's body and he used a pen to write other words on the body. Investigators wouldn't provide any details on those writings.
They are looking into the relationship between the two men. Starr owns the home, and Anderson was living there.
Leatherman lives across the street from Starr's home and told NewsChannel 36 he saw the two men together for the first time over the weekend.
Saturday he (Starr) came over. I was chopping wood in yard, and he asked if he could have some of the firewood, Leatherman said. He introduced this guy that I'd never seen before and said it was his adopted son.
Leatherman said he didn't believe the story, and, in retrospect, he can't believe what happened next.
He (Anderson) was wearing a knife on his side, and Steve said that he had given it to him as a gift, Leatherman said. And then the guy said, 'Well, it's not very sharp. Do you have a sharpening stone that I could borrow?' And then this happens.
Anderson is charged with murder and is being held in jail without bond.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

PENDLETON — In 2009, National Merit Scholar Lindsey Morris was awarded full academic and athletic scholarships and headed to the University of Delaware to begin her freshman year in college. The goal was to study equine medicine and compete as a member of the university's rowing team.
Then life — and circumstances beyond her control that she never saw coming — happened. One year later, she was living independently, with no source of income or financial aid to pay the next year's tuition.
"I hit a wall in Delaware. Without parental support, I couldn't get private loans and federal grants didn't cover the out-of-state tuition," said the Savannah, Ga., native. "It was painful. I moved back home to decide where to go next."
That place was Clemson University where she hoped to become a member of the Division 1 rowing team and an in-state student. Her father lived in Charleston at the time. Unable to secure a scholarship and without parental support, she dropped out because of financial hardship — again.
"I wanted to start my own life and live independently. I stayed in the area and enrolled at Tri-County Technical College as an opportunity to prepare for my future. It saved my life," said Morris, today an associate degree nursing major.
Through her job as front desk associate at a hotel in Clemson and scholarships from the College's Alumni Association and Foundation, along with federal grants, Morris is back on her feet and looking forward.
"I was floored by the opportunities at Tri-County. Things have finally fallen into place. I've gone from feeling hopeless and dejected to being optimistic and confident," said Morris, now 23.
"I look forward to having a strong career and a family one day and being able to provide security and comfort for those I love. Now I am excited for my future. I can take care of myself and can count on people in my life, including my instructors."
She says the small classes and approachable faculty and staff were a welcome change.
"I'm not an ID number and a scantron sheet at Tri-County. Here, they know my name and when I e-mail them, I get warm responses. It makes college not so daunting," she said.
"The Alumni Association Board members were very impressed with Lindsey's scholarship application and excitedly chose her as one of our recipients," said Mary Johnston, director of alumni relations at Tri-County. "We have gotten to know Lindsey through her participation in Alumni Association events and she is a delightful young lady. She is mature, focused, and personable and has overcome great odds on her educational journey. The Alumni Association embraces the College's vision: 'Passionate people transforming lives and building strong communities one student at a time,' and we are proud to fulfill that vision through dedicated students like Lindsey."
In the past, Morris always set goals, and despite prior setbacks, today is no different.
"Personally observing addiction and mental illness in my family and friends, I've seen what drugs and alcohol can do to lives. I want to be a mental health/substance abuse nurse," she said. "It's important if I can help one in 50 to get his or her life back on track and lead a functional life again. I know I can make a difference."
She misses the team camaraderie and the sport she loves (when competing on the Delaware rowing team they had a perfect season), but over the last few years, she had to step back and reassess her life and circumstances.
"I chose a longer, uncomplicated, but more fulfilling path to my goal," she said. "I've come a long way. These scholarships (Alumni Association and Abney) from Tri-County have made it possible. If I depended on my job for tuition, rent, food and gas, it couldn't work. I feel empowered and it's so nice to be recognized with the scholarships. I appreciate all of the people who are helping to make it happen. Tri-County is about helping students get to where they need to go."
She plans to graduate in May 2015.

DOE SCIENCE FUNDING, STRATEGIC PLAN: A group of senators has signed a letter urging President Clinton, in his FY 2002 budget request for DOE's Office of Science, to seek "continued growth for these programs on par with that proposed for" NIH and NSF. To provide "measurable outcomes and accountability for the funds entrusted to us," DOE recently released a 6-year strategic plan for science as well as its other missions.
FINAL APPROPRIATIONS: Congress left town in November with several appropriations bills still to be completed, hoping that when they returned, the election results would guide them in the final budget negotiations. But the aftermath of the presidential election so far is offering them little guidance. Two of the bills still to be finalized are those funding NIST and the Department of Education.
MORALE CONCERNS AT NUCLEAR WEAPONS LABS: The new defense authorization law will require that up to 5,000 more employees at DOE's weapons labs undergo polygraph exams. In signing the bill, President Clinton expressed displeasure at the polygraph provision, and Sen. Pete Domenici (R-NM) warned that "morale at the labs is already bad, and these provisions won't improve the situation." A report by two former congressmen finds morale and productivity at Los Alamos National Laboratory "devastated" by recent incidents, and offers some common-sense recommendations to improve security policies.
US POSITION IN MATERIALS SCIENCES: While US researchers lead, or are among the world leaders, in all subfields of materials research, a new National Academies panel also finds weaknesses and areas where the US effort is surpassed by that of other regions.
107TH CONGRESS: Although there is no definitive result to this year's presidential election, things are beginning to take shape for the 107th Congress. One known result of the elections is that new faces will be serving in Congress. There is a great need among Members, both new and old, for analysis and advice on scientific and technical issues. The AIP, APS, AGU and OSA Congressional Science Fellowship programs make it possible for scientists to provide this expertise to individual Members or congressional committees.
DEFENSE R&D: Concerned that Air Force science and technology funding has fallen by 55% since 1989, Rep. Tony Hall (D-OH) introduced a bill to strengthen support for R&D by establishing within the Air Force an Office of Research, an S&T Policy Council, and a Scientific Advisory Board. In related news, a Defense Science Board task force recommended that DOD support of university research be increased by 30% over the next three years to ensure access to the latest technologies. DOD funding is the main source of support for university research in physical sciences, engineering and information technology associated with military systems, yet DOD basic research funding has declined by nearly 25% since 1991.
UPDATE: Physicist Rush Holt (D-NJ) has won reelection to the House of Representatives.

Outdoor concerts,

to enjoy these events, and the last weeks of summer,
than with a picnic?
The word 'picnic' comes from the French 'pique-nique',
and entered into common usage in the 1800s. It has a
nice dual meaning, being both an outing with food, and
a pleasant experience. Originally, the idea of a picnic
was simply a communal event in which everyone brought
an item of food, but evolved into being an outdoor activity.
Writing at the close of the 19th century, Lady Colin
Campbell paints a fascinating picture of what such an
occasion might have been like: "The provisions should
have a separate vehicle allotted to them, and not be
scattered about in the different carriages.. The servants
- not too many, please, or we shall have too much state
and ceremony - accompanying the car should start in
good time, so as to be at the destination when the company
arrives." Suitable provisions are listed as including
pigeon and grouse pies, pressed tongue, blancmange in
mould, plum-cakes, lemonade, cherry brand, tea, and
remember, "it is useless to attempt to make coffee on
an occasion of this kind". Nowadays, the picnic is a
considerably less formal affair, although the cuisine
can be just as complex.
Picnics may seem like a slapdash affair, but they're more
likely to succeed if you plan properly for them.
You might choose to have a picnic in your garden,
or travel further afield. We've got more than 200

a general question concerning the licenses and rules of the use of photodune images:
is it allowed to use photodune images in artistic composings and then sell these composings as prints on canvas?
In detail: women faces for example are part of new composings, altered with other graphic elements and textures, so that a new artwork will be created. Is it then allowed to sell these composings as prints?
Thanks for any help.

How does PET/CT work? PET detects small tumors but not the exact location. CT shows the size, shape and location.
By doing the exams simultaneously, the images are superimposed, giving our medical team more accurate information on the size, shape and location of even early-stage cancers.
In addition to using it as a diagnostic tool, PET/CT allows our doctors to see immediately how effectively cancer treatment is working.
This allows doctors to make treatment decisions much sooner than ever before.

The appointment of outgoing President of Colombia Álvaro Uribe Vélez to a UN-commissioned inquiry into the massacre by Israel of human rights activists aboard the Gaza Freedom Flotilla makes a mockery of the investigation. José Antonio Gutiérrez and David Landy comment for The Electronic Intifada.
Irish academics were thanked this week in an open letter, signed by over 100 academics and 1,000 students of Birzeit University near Ramallah, Palestine. The thanks were addressed to the 61 Irish academics who wrote a public letter in September calling for a moratorium on EU aid to Israeli universities, until Israel abides by international law and basic human rights norms. The letter, published in the Irish Times on September 16th, has caused a public stir in Israel; the education minister Yuli Tamir has travelled to England to 'verify if they [the signatories] are lecturers who have influence'.
In a letter published in the Irish Times today, 61 Irish academics from a wide variety of disciplines called for a moratorium on EU support of Israeli academic institutions until Israel abides by UN resolutions and ends the occupation of Palestinian territories. While this letter does not call for a comprehensive boycott, it does demand that European academic institutions cease funding collaborative projects with Israeli institutions. It also calls for academics to refrain, where possible, from institutional collaboration with Israel. Such actions are to continue until Israel abides by international law, part of which is ending the occupation.
Last Saturday in Dublin, despite the spitting and occasionally pouring rain, over 500 people marched to protest Israeli war crimes in Gaza. The rally was called by the Ireland Palestine Solidarity campaign, and was the culmination of a week of condemnation of Israeli actions. The march got a supportive reaction from passers-by, showing the popularity of the Palestinian cause among ordinary Irish people. Speakers included the Palestinian representative in Ireland, Hikmat Ajurri, as well as a representative from the Palestinian community, who thanked so many people for coming out and showing solidarity with the Palestinian people.

They're two peas in a pod, come to think of it. Gun-shooty, reckless-drivey, freeroamy romps through big ol' cities both. Sidequests-amundo, surly protagonists… it's like Grand Theft Auto IV and Watch Dogs were separated at birth.
PC mods are often just slices of pure crazy-ass. In the past, we've flooded the entirety of San Andreas for no effing reason at all, and witnessed the spectacle that was a playable Incredible Hulk. Sometimes, then, it's nice to see a mod that makes a little freaking sense.
Such as the one that's in front of your eyeballs right now. The creator has called this Watch Dogs IV, bringing Aiden Pierce and his hacktacular ways into Liberty City as only these madcap modders know how. And it's much more than just dicking about with the character model and an animation or two.
Kotaku brings us the full report from the modder himself, explaining just how far into Watch Dogs territory we're taking this. You can hack payphones, ATMs and soda machines, ride atop moving trains like the life-endangering badass you are, and you even have the right Aiden idle animation. Plus much more.

Old version of SIM Download
Hello All,
Not sure if this has been answered in some other post, however, as I did not find it anywhere posting it:
Do we have a location something like solutionsam from where we could download older versions of SIM, e.g. SIM 7.1.
I would need to perform a install of CMS 7.1, however, when tried installing it by selecting CMS 7.1 from the product listing of SIM 7.5 that I downloaded from trialware page of CMS on Symantec site, it gave me many errors and ended up finding that few SMP files in the installation are of 7.5 which ideally should have been of 7.1. Hence, wanted to do a clean install of CMS 7.1 and if possible would like to do it using SIM 7.1.
Any guidance / reference would be of great help.

you can check with customer care for old version to be uploaded on fileconnect

Hello Sanish,
Yes, I saw the check box later and then had selected the check box following selected an appropriate version and fortunately it has completed successfully however, with an on box SQL.
We have started an install of Altiris CMS 7.1 SP2b with off box SQL. Hoping for that to complete as well.
Thanks for the reply, though. :)

I have made a utility java project which contains XML, DB and other such utility classes. This requires 3rd party dependencies on some of the Apache common libraries, so I have added it in my java project by configuring the build path in eclipse Juno. Now I want to export this java project as jar file. When I am exporting this project as runnable jar file, it is working fine i.e if I include this jar in some other java project, I am able to access the utility classes, but when I am simply exporting the utility project as jar, I am not able to use it. Runnable jar requires a main class, but I don't want to keep a main class in my utility java project. I have compared both the jar files. The difference that I found out was that in runnable jar file, there is no .classpath file but a simple jar file that is in there. In the runnable jar file, all the jar files are mentioned in file named MANIFEST-INF.mf file, but in simple jar file it contains only version of .mf file. Can anyone tell me how can I make a jar file without a main class and use it for my other java projects so that I just have to include the jar file and use it as it is.

Buddhism: Buddhism in Central Asia
Central Asia is not a clearly defined term. In a narrower sense, it refers to the region previously known as Eastern or Chinese Turkestan, as the Tarim Basin, or as Sinkiang (Xinjiang), lying between the towns of Kashgar in the west and Dunhuang in the east. In a wider sense, it also refers to the former Soviet republics, now independent states, of Middle Asia, generally known as Western Turkestan, and to the whole Tibetan plateau in the south. Here it is meant to include Eastern Turkestan, i.e., the present Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region in the People's Republic of China, and those parts of the Middle Asian republics where traces of Buddhism have been found.
During the period of its maximum spread, Buddhism became a major religious and cultural factor not only in India and in East and Southeast Asia, but...

Naturally dividing into five parts, it concentrates on the King's mother, Anne of Austria, to whom he was devoted; his first important mistress, Louise de la Valliere, who bore him several illegitimate children; Athenais Marquise de Montespan, who acted as unofficial Queen of Versailles until her involvement in the affair of poisons; Marie Therese, his wife, of course; and Madame de Maintenon, governess to the illegitimate royal children. The fifth part concentrates on his relations in old age with his daughters, granddaughters, and the wife of his grandson.

We really enjoyed our stay at Guesthouse Gara. The owner is very sweet and personable! It is not a 25 minute walk to the city, but it is very close to three buses that run regularly and only take 10 minutes so the location was not an inconvenience for us. The wifi never worked for us and there were no cooking facilities, but a grocery store right across the street. It was also right across the street from the ferry terminal and bus terminal which was great for our arrival and departure.

Basically, we liked everything. The staff was so helpful and kind at any time. The beds and bathroom were very clean. If we ever come back to Dubrovnik that is the place where we'll sleep. Good choice!

Staff was great! - Dianne and Marco were the best. Very friendly and willing to assist in every way!
Great location in Macon.
Lots of variety for breakfast.
Pet friendly.
Room was very clean.
Nothing. It was a great stay.
Our bathroom wasn't very clean. Hair in the bathtub and the tub was chipping. They were out of towels at the pool.
First time at a Best Western and will definitely try again. This location is very large and we had to go from building to building to get the breakfast but it was worth the walk. Room was clean. Beds were OK. There is a lounge on site that we thought we could go to for a burger but it was full of smokers. Horrible smell. We went to the nearby Applebee's for dinner.
The description implied that there was a restaurant on site which we like when we are traveling. We ended up having to get back into the car to go to eat.
The room was nice as well as the staff. The front desk lady let me use the printer to print few pages so that was nice. I stayed in the room most of the time so There is nothing else to report.
Two negative points I found was I could hear the trucks and traffic at night. It is close to 75 which is good but you will hear the traffic if your room is located in the front. The breakfast was not, not great. One of the coffee pots had coffee that was not hot anymore, cold for a coffee beverage... it was warm... and strangely the orange juice came out of the machine warm, not nice to drink warm juice.
The recliner.
Thin walls, noisy neighbors, unwillingness of staff to address the noisy neighbors even at late hours, no breakfast, rooms only serviced weekly
Everytime I visit Macon, I always stay here. The rooms are always cleaned to my standards. I don't have to worry about my toddlers' safety or baby proof the rooms. The staff is always professional and courteous. The full kitchen is a plus. There are lots of restaurants, two grocery stores, and several clothing stores in close proximity. There also is a Town Center nearby.
Clean room & clenliness
Abandoned strip mall only negative, but well lit. & no problems whatsoever
I booked my reservations for this hotel a day in advance for 3 days and when we arrived we decided we need an additional room, so they got us joining rooms without any hesitation. Staff is friendly and curtious!
Some of the staff needs better training on Internet dealing.
Bed was comfortable
Room smelled like a locker room. Had to go buy air freshened but it didn't help.
The hotel and the rooms were very clean.
The staff was not very pleasant and I was greeted with "let me check if we have any thing available", to which I responded " The reservations is under xyz"
No free internet!?
Cleanliness and quality.
Weak A/C
The bed
Staff was friendly and helpful food was good and place was overall clean for a good price good location near other hotels and restaurants
Jacuzzi was a little cloudy looking so didn't go in. Pool seemed ok though
Clean and employee was friendly
Everything was ok
Horrible customer service
The workers were very nice
Rooms were dilapidated and disgusting. You should stop advertising this location. Was not a safe neighborhood and was very dirty.
staff was very friendly, room was more than we expected, breakfast was very good.
Near the freeway.
Somewhat of a rough looking area, but I believe it's better than it seems.
Stylish and clean. The lobby was extremely inviting and comfortable.
Restaurant and lobby store lacked a non-dairy milk. A minor inconvenience.
Economical. Clean. Quiet.
No coffee!! They only had decaf in lobby and the coffee kit in the room had been opened already by previous tenant I am assuming and left with only decaf.
I haven't been to a Sleep Inn in years and was a little nervous. It was a very cheap price compared to the neighboring hotel where my training was. I was very pleasantly surprised. The room was clean, nicely decorated and the whole hotel had been recently renovated. I would highly recommend this hotel for budget travelers.
It didn't have some of the amenities I'm used to like a workout center.
Continental breakfast, staff seemed friendly
The room 132 was horrible. The coverlet on the bed had stains that concerned us as to whether it had been washed. The smoke detector was missing and wires hanging from ceiling. A large hole about 18 inches in the wall by the window. when you laying in bed you look at the ceiling with water stains. The mirror above the desk was dirty with a film of something and streaked. The bathroom looked clean and we pulled the covers back on the bed to make sure it had been changed and in it had. The pillows were real soft and the bed was very comfortable we were just there to sleep take a shower and leave as we were traveling south. The continental breakfast was great! We had a noise problem with a party going on next to our room during the night and the staff was quick to take care of it when we brought it to their attention.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a popular multicriteria decision-making approach but the ease of AHP paired comparison data collection entails the problem that consistency restrictions have to be fulfilled for the data evaluation task. Quite a lot of consistency improvement techniques are available, however, this note explains why consistency adjustments are not necessarily helpful for computing acceptable weights for the determination of the underlying overall objective function.

Having a baby is perhaps the most memorable of all human experiences. At the Bear River Valley Hospital Women's Center we look forward to sharing your experience with you.
From the moment you discover you're pregnant, a dedicated team is ready to guide you on the journey of brining your child into the world. Our focus is centered on the needs of both mother and baby to help ensure a safe and joyful experience. In addition to an unsurpassed level of care, Bear River Valley Hospital offers a state-of-the-art labor and delivery unit, postpartum care unit and a newborn nursery.
To improve your chances of having a healthy pregnancy and baby, do these 6 things:
1. Get early, regular prenatal care. Studies show that good prenatal care helps ensure healthier pregnancies, safer labor and deliveries, and stronger babies. Your first prenatal visit should happen between 6 and 8 weeks of pregnancy (when your menstrual period is 2 to 4 weeks late). To begin prenatal care with an Intermountain clinician, visit the "Find a Doctor or Midwife" section, and search under the categories of Midwife (Certified RN) or Obstetrics & Gynecology.
2. Don't drink or smoke, and don't take anything - even a pain reliever or cold medicine - without your healthcare provider's okay. There's no "safe" number of cigarettes or drinks, and many common medications can harm your developing baby. Contact your doctor for help in making lifestyle changes. For quick advice about medication, call the Pregnancy RiskLine in Salt Lake City at (801) 328-BABY, or toll-free anywhere in Utah at 1-800-822-BABY.
3. Take a prenatal vitamin with at least 400 micrograms (0.4 mg) of folic acid. Taking folic acid before and during a pregnancy can reduce the risk of a child born with serious birth defects of the spinal cord or brain. You can get prenatal vitamins through a prescription from your doctor or midwife, or you can buy them over-the-counter at the store. For more information on the importance of folic acid, visit the March of Dimes website.
4. Get enough rest and exercise. Balancing activity and rest will help you nurture your developing baby - and will help you feel good, too. Both rest and exercise help you cope with the mood swings of pregnancy, ease aches and pains, and manage morning sickness. For more information, see the managing morning sickness patient education handout from Intermountain.
5. Eat nutritious meals. What you eat can affect the health of your growing baby. So make every bite count. Limit high-sugar and high-fat foods (like sodas and ice-cream and other desserts, and fatty meats like sausage or fried chicken). Instead, eat more fruits and vegetables. Choose whole-grain foods like whole-wheat bread and brown rice. Go for low-fat protein foods like low-fat milk, skinless chicken or turkey, and beans. Drink eight glasses of water every day. Check out the Fit for Two material from the National Institutes of Health.
6. Wear a seatbelt. It may not always feel comfortable around your growing waistline, but right now a seatbelt may save two lives. And if you want a head start on a safety seat for your baby, check out this car seat safety information from Intermountain's Primary Children's Medical Center.

Aquatic Biology Degree and Training Program Overviews
Learn about degree programs in aquatic biology. Find out about program requirements and courses, as well as some popular career choices, the employment outlook and salary trends for aspiring aquatic biologists.
Essential Information
Aquatic biology, sometimes called aquatic resources, involves the scientific understanding and conservation of freshwater ecosystems. Bachelor's, master's and doctorate degrees are available in this discipline. Aquatic biology is most often a concentration or emphasis within a related environmental science or biology degree program, especially at the graduate levels. A bachelor's degree could be sufficient for entry-level work as an aquatic biologist, though master's and doctoral programs can prepare students for more advanced research or college-level teaching positions.
Bachelor of Science Degree in Aquatic Biology
Aquatic biology studies encompass bodies of fresh water, native living organisms and the human culture that affects these ecosystems. Many programs offering a Bachelor of Science require the student to participate in fieldwork studies, which may be completed as part of the regular school year or as a summer program. Chemistry, math and statistics classes are emphasized along with biology in order to teach students how to think analytically when balancing ecological concerns with the needs of the surrounding community. Students are also either required or encouraged to take classes in communications to prepare them for writing reports and dealing effectively with the public. Some of the undergraduate programs require the student to begin with a pre-biology major before being accepted into the aquatic biology program.
Program Coursework
Course plans are designed to give students an overall understanding of the composition of fresh-water ecosystems, as well as how nature biologists and industrialists can work towards common goals. Classes cover topics such as:
- Freshwater entomology
- Limnology
- Freshwater botany
- Ichthyology
- Environmental studies
- Journalism
- Ornithology
- Community and ecology
Popular Careers
Bachelor's degree holders are qualified for entry-level research and consulting positions. Typical career fields include:
- State wildlife, fisheries and natural resource departments
- Research and analysis of environmental issues for private consulting firms
- Public and private hatcheries and hydroponics
- Water pollution research for municipal departments
Master of Science in Aquatic Biology
Master's degree programs are designed primarily for students who wish to pursue careers in research or public education. Programs may also be required as a prelude to a doctorate in aquatic and fisheries science in some schools or universities. Research projects in aquatic biology require the student to perform fieldwork, and in some cases, an internship. Both thesis and non-thesis programs are available.
Education Prerequisites
Master's degree program applicants must hold a bachelor's degree in biology or a related discipline. Graduate test scores, such as from the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), and letters of recommendation may also be required.
Program Coursework
Courses for an aquatic biology degree focus heavily on environmental science and management techniques. Common coursework covers topics such as:
- Aquaculture pathology and utilization
- Sustainable fisheries
- Ecology behavior and evolution
- Management and impact of wildlife and recreation
- Environmental ecotoxicology
- Biogeographical studies
- Stream and reservoir ecology
