A donation toy drive is being held this Saturday, May 3, from 1-3 p.m. at the Altus Air Force Base Community Center to commemorate the removal of a young man's leg brace, and to thank the children's hospital that has helped him since the age of 3. Troy Cummings, a 16 year-old junior at Navajo, is holding the event "Bye Bye Brace," to celebrate the occasion.
Cummings wore the brace on his right leg for 13 years after being diagnosed with cerebral palsy to help keep those muscles stretched on that side, said Shawn Cummings of his son Troy. Troy was finally told by his doctor he had made enough progress and wouldn't have to wear the brace any longer.
"Troy would like to give back to the hospital that has helped him," Shawn said. "It was his idea to give back to Shriner's Hospital for Children." Shawn explained that when Troy was first began visiting Shriner Hospital, each child was able to search through a big bucket to pick from and take home a toy after a patient visit, and wants to contribute to the tradition.
There will be video games, pool, and jousting at the event, as well as pizza, cake, and ice cream.
Troy, with his parents Shawn and Kristi Cummings, invite the community to bring a toy or monetary donation to be given to Shriner's Hospital. All toys will be given to Shriner's Hospital for Children in Shreveport, La.

The Pantry, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTRY), the leading independently operated convenience store chain in the southeastern U.S., today announced financial results for its fiscal third quarter and nine months ended June 28, 2012.
Third Quarter Summary:
- Net income was $14.8 million or $0.65 per share. This compares to net income of $19.0 million or $0.84 per share in last year's third quarter. Excluding the impact of impairment charges, net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was $15.9 million or $0.70 per share, compared to earnings per share of $0.93 in the prior year (see reconciliation below).
- Adjusted EBITDA was $74.7 million, compared to $84.7 million a year ago.
- Comparable store merchandise revenue increased 3.6%.
- Merchandise gross margin was 33.5%, compared to 34.0% a year ago.
- Fuel gross profit was $67.1 million, compared to $80.1 million a year ago.
- Cash flow from operations was $80.2 million.
President and Chief Executive Officer Dennis G. Hatchell said, "We generated $75 million of Adjusted EBITDA for our fiscal third quarter, which was at the high end of our expectations. While pleased with these results, we are focused on improving them over time by implementing our strategic initiatives, such as our store remodel, foodservice and lifestyle merchandising programs. Our initiative to improve leverage resulted in a reduction of funded debt during fiscal 2012 of approximately $182 million, including the reductions related to our recent refinancing."
Comparable store merchandise sales in the third quarter increased 3.6% in total and 5.7% excluding cigarettes. Total merchandise gross profit for the quarter was $159.7 million, a decrease of $0.3 million from the third quarter a year ago.Fuel gross profit decreased 16.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the same period a year ago, primarily due to a reduction in retail fuel margin per gallon to $0.146 from $0.166 a year ago. Retail fuel gallons sold in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 decreased 5.0% overall and 3.6% on a comparable store basis as compared to last year's third quarter.

OK, I better finish this up!
When I left Mid Hills in the am it was still sub-freezing. I really wanted to lose some altitude and get down to some warmer temps.
I retraced the road back to the Kelso/Cima rd. and headed north about 10 miles and turned wsw just past Sunshine Rock. This turned out to be a good hardpack road out past the Valley View Ranch where it looked like some rangers live. It got sandy for awhile and then got progressively more and more rocky as I entered the Cinder Cone Lava Beds. By then it had warmed up considerably and my hands worked again.
There was one little technical section (4x4) where the road climbed up onto the lava flow. Right along there I passed the Aikens Mine which looks active.
A couple miles later I came to the "Lava Tube" and stopped to check it out.
About 50 yds off the trail are these 2 holes which lead into the tube. They looked bottomless from the outside so there was no way I was going in.
Looking west out over the Lava Beds.
After surveying the map I decided to finish the ride by going sw through Jackass Cyn. and then turning nw and looping around Old Dad Mtn. The road through Jackass was a pretty wide and well developed dirt road and followed some power lines.
Clouds over Jackass.
When I turned nw the road got much more primitive again. It was some of the best riding of the whole trip crossing in and out of dozens of small ravines.
Here is the sw side of the Old Dad.
By late morning I was back in Baker. I didn't see even one other moto or car the whole time, it was total solitude. My total milage was only about 175 but I did see alot of new area. It was a leisurely pace! I started out with 1.2 gallons in a can as I didn't plan to hit any gas stations and ended up with almost a gallon left. I figured the bike was getting 55 mpg.
Thanks for checking it out.

Why aren't film director Kathryn Bigelow's claimed government sources, including employees of the CIA, in jail like Pfc. Bradley Manning?
From 9/11 Commission report
"Without Precedent" (2006), a book by the former co-chairs of the 9/11 Commission, tells the inside story of how the White House endeavored to squelch any real examination of the enemy whose actions kicked off the so-called war on terror. Editor's note: This article first appeared on Truthdig in August 2006.
AP / Brennan Linsley
For a decade, the main questions about 9/11 have gone unanswered while the alleged perpetrators who survived the attacks have never been publicly cross-examined as to their methods and motives.
Brennan Linsley / AP / dapd
It is the right—indeed, need—of the American public to learn the truth about the motives, financing and methods of those who are alleged to have torn at the heart of our social fabric.
AP photo / Manuel Balce Ceneta
When the CIA destroyed those prisoner interrogation videotapes, was it also destroying the truth about 9/11? After all, according to the 9/11 Commission Report, the basic narrative of what happened on that day comes from the CIA's account of what those prisoners told their torturers. And what about those congressional leaders, including Democrats such as Nancy Pelosi, who were briefed on the torture program as early as 2002?
An anti-terrorism bill making its way through the Senate would allow airport screeners to unionize. Republicans in Congress, ever the friends of working men and women, have fought against the provision, arguing that a screener union would threaten security and safety.
House Democrats are on a legislative roll, but the security bill they just passed by a wide margin is expected to meet with tougher opposition in the Senate. The legislation would implement recommendations made by the 9/11 Commission, including beefing up port security.
From ftd.de
In an interview with the New York Post's editorial board today, the secretary of state refuted several of Bill Clinton's claims about Bush & Co.'s dismal record on terror. But Rice's refutations fly in the face of the conclusions of the 9/11 Commission. Fact-check it here and here.

Thrissur: The District Administration will hold a regional meeting of the 'water community' on June 16 and 17 in association with the United Nation's Solution Exchange.
The UN's Solution Exchange initiative builds 'Communities of Practice' by connecting people with similar concerns and interests through email groups and face-to- face interactions. The objective is to harness the country's vast knowledge pool. Much of the knowledge remains undocumented, out of the reach of practitioners and in danger of being forgotten.
The United Nations agencies in India support this knowledge-sharing initiative to improve development and help achieve the objectives of India's Five-Year Plans and Millennium Development Goals.
Water is one of the eleven Communities of Practice established by the UN's Solution Exchange.
Well recharge
The 'water community' has elicited response from the public on several aspects of 'Mazhapolima', a participatory well recharge programme being implemented by the district administration in association with panchayati- raj institutions at a cost of about Rs. 1,500 per open well.
'Mazhappolima', launched on July 4, 2008, costs Rs. 92 crores. The programme has largely been financed by households. Funds have also been channelled from a few decentralised projects.
"The programme was marked by informed decision-making, a menu of simple technical choices. The overall goal of the programme is to improve the health and welfare of communities through improved access to drinking water," said District Collector V. K. Baby.
'Mazhappolima' included training for overseers of grama panchayats and publication of a technical manual.
Financial support
"The outcome of the programme has been encouraging. Commercial banks have come forward in support. Private companies have started implementing the programme. The State Government has announced Rs. 2 crores for the programme and released Rs. 1 crore as the first tranche. The NABARD has agreed to support one coastal block. Under the national watershed programme, three blocks have adopted open well recharge as a key project," said Mr. Baby.
About 71 per cent of the population in the State relies on wells for drinking water. The aggregate household investment in the State on wells is pegged at Rs. 1,800 crores, and they have a combined yield of 6.6 million cubic metres per day. It makes available about 197 litres of water per capita per day (lpcd), well above the governments
prescribed norm of 140 lpcd.
Groundwater levels
"Despite an annual rainfall of 3,000 mm, the majority of wells go dry in summer. Groundwater levels in several blocks have fallen sharply. Saline intrusion adds to the problem," observed Dr. Baby.
Speakers at the 'water community' meeting include Local Self-Government principal secretary S. M. Vijayanand, Dara Johnston, Nitya Jacob, Terry Thomas, Guru Nathan, Janaka Rajan, Leo Saldanha, K. A. S. Mani, P. K. Thampi, John Mathai and E. J. James.

CE's At Sea's Conference Cruises combine the nursing industry's elite faculty with a stress-free, nurturing experience of an ocean cruise with colleagues.
Nursing education is vital to continuing excellent care. Nurses turn to online webinars, conferences, workshops, seminars and symposiums to gain continuing education contact hours. What these CE programs miss is the critical component of rejuvenation. Whether a Nurse Practitioner, an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse, or a Certified RN, what ever specialty of practice or area of expertise, in general Nurses are exhausted, overworked and his/her needs are often the last to be met when called to any specialty; including NICU, Newborn Nursery, Neonatalogy, Perinatology, Labor & Delivery, Breastfeeding Educator, Nurse Midwife, Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, Intensive Care, Critical Care, Cardiology, PACU, Orthopedics, Medical, Surgical, Operating Room, PACU, Same Day Surgery, Outpaitent Surgery, Bone Marrow Transplant, Chemotherapy, Emergency Department, Clinic, Neurology, Psychiatry, Correctional Health, Pediatric, Peri-anesthesia, Case Manager, Gastroenterology, Enterostomal Therapy, Wound & Skin Care, Health Education, Hemodialysis, Family Nurse Practitioner, Hospice & Palliative Nursing, Legal Nurse Consultant, Nursing Administration, Urology, Holistic Nursing, Rehabilitation, Nephrology, Occupational Health, Ophthalmology,or School Nursing, Peritoneal Dialysis, Radiology, Peritoneal Dialysis, Pain Practitioner,Nurse Anesthetist, Intravenous Nursing, and Nurse Educators. Maintaining CE's is just one more task to check off the "to do list".To continue to deliver excellence in patient care, nurses need more than continuing education. Nurses need rejuvenation.
No other nursing conference, workshop, seminar or symposium delivers a more valuable combination of education, networking and rejuvenation. That's why CE's At Sea is …the Ultimate Educational Experience!

Hopes still high for Azkals
BANGKOK—There's little to worry about even with the Philippines missing its top two goalkeepers in the AFF Suzuki Cup here. And with overseas-based players all accounted for in the Thai capital, hopes are high that the Azkals can pull off a surprise on opening-day against Thailand at Rajamangala National Stadium here.
On the day coach Michael Weiss reiterated his full backing for third-choice keeper Ed Sacapano, Filipino-Danish leftback Dennis Cagara arrived from Frankfurt to complete the roster for the group stage, where the Azkals will face Thailand, Vietnam and Myanmar.
Weiss marveled at the quality at his disposal, even as he faces a selection dilemma a day before he was slated to submit his final 22-man list in Group A.
Misagh Bahadoran has already been ruled out because of a thigh injury, but the likes of Carli de Murga, the returning Angel Guirado, Patrick Reichelt, Marwin Angeles, Chris Greatwich, Ian Araneta, Demitrius Omphroy and Jason Sabio are all in contention to make the 18-man list for the Thailand match.
The midfield pair of Holland-based Paul Mulders and Filipino-Danish Jerry Lucena also trained with the squad for the first time in the facility just outside the national stadium.
The selection dilemma speaks volumes of how the team has evolved into a formidable unit, considering that two years ago, in the same tournament, former coach Simon McMenemy struggled to find options off the bench.
"We have good options," said Weiss, whose side faces Vietnam on Nov. 27 and Myanmar on Nov. 30.
"We're looking forward to fielding a very strong team," said Azkals manager Dan Palami. "Everything is geared toward winning the championship."
In terms of Fifa rankings, the Azkals are second to Vietnam here, but the three other teams in the group possess more football pedigree, particularly Thailand, which has won the tournament three times.
"We have done our homework as far as team preparation and scouting is concerned," said Weiss, whose side trained in the United States and played high-level matches in the Middle East in the leadup to the tournament.
Sacapano, who proved superb in the 1-0 win over Singapore last week in Cebu, has been thrust into the limelight following the absence of Neil Etheridge and Roland Muller. The Azkals have brought in Swiss goalkeeping coach Pascal Zuberbuhler to help out Sacapano.
"This man has been very quiet and very hard in training even if he wasn't getting his chances," Weiss said. "Sacapano played super, fantastic performance against Singapore and in the past couple of months and I will be the happiest man if he can continue that."

Will Cricket score a hit?
Muve Music service has found success with a young, urban, hip crowd. The question is, can it grow beyond that?
Cricket Communications has scored some big numbers so far with its Muve Music service.
About 130 million songs have been downloaded by Muve customers since the service launched seven months ago in the 35 states where Cricket sells wireless plans.
It took Apple's iTunes music store, launched in 2003, about 17 months to top 125 million downloads.
Muve had 100,000 users in early July. By the end of July, it had nearly 150,000 users.
The typical Muve subscriber listens to three hours of music a day on their phones. Each is downloading, on average, 400 songs per month.
While those statistics are impressive, it remains to be seen whether Muve Music will be the blockbuster hit that Cricket, the consumer brand of San Diego's Leap Wireless, is betting on.
A big test comes later this year. That's when Cricket begins selling its wireless services nationwide, adding about 7,000 big box retail stores across the country to its existing retail lineup in markets where it already operates its own network, as well as new markets where it will offer no-contract wireless service by renting capacity on Sprint's network.
The nationwide expansion is a key piece of the month-to-month carrier's strategy to make more noise in the prepaid wireless business. And Muve will have the spotlight role.
"I consider it the lead story of our national retail launch," said Jeff Toig, general manager for Muve Music. "What's the thing that we have that no one else in the market has? We have this music service that comes with your wireless plan."
Muve is the first music service that comes bundled into a monthly wireless rate plan. There is no extra fee for downloading songs. It is included in Cricket's $55 unlimited offering. So are ring tones and ring back tones. Unlimited voice, text, email and 3G mobile Web also are part of plan.
With Muve, downloaded songs are stored on the Samsung Suede feature phone, which costs $199 and is Cricket's only device to currently offer Muve Music. The Suede holds about 3,000 tracks on a memory card that comes with the device. Customers can upgrade to a larger memory card that holds twice as many songs. "As we look ahead to the second half of 2011, we will be launching Muve on smartphones," said Doug Hutcheson, chief executive of Leap Wireless. "We also will be expanding the number of Muve rate plans and offering the service nationally."
Muve customers can play their songs as long as they're Cricket subscribers. If they drop Cricket, they lose access to the songs.
Cricket's Muve Music has gotten the attention of competitors — in part because it's growing fast. But it's also getting noticed because it has the potential to be a differentiator in a maturing wireless industry where rate plans and mobile phones are becoming more alike — particularly with the proliferation of devices running Google's Android operating system.
"I would say there is parity or homogeneity across most of the devices you see and most of the carriers," said John Jackson, an analyst with CCS Insight. "It doesn't help the (phone makers) and it doesn't help the operators if everybody else has more or less what you have." Cricket began working on Muve Music three years ago based on the theory that its core customers — young, urban, ethnic and low-income wireless subscribers — were not getting a good digital music experience.

Murray Given Freedom Of Merton
Wimbledon, Great Britain
by ATP Staff|
After a practice session with new coach Amelie Mauresmo at Wimbledon on Friday, Andy Murray was formally presented with the freedom of the London Borough of Merton, three days before he begins his title defence at The Championships.
New Mayor of Merton Councillor Agatha Akyigyina made the presentation of a certificate and seal, formally granting Murray honorary freeman status at a special presentation hosted by the All England Lawn Tennis Club. It is the highest honour the borough can bestow.
"It's an honour to receive the Freedom of Merton," said Murray. "Everyone knows how much this tennis tournament means to me, so I'm delighted and I'd like to thank the Councillors and everyone involved for granting me this. I can't wait for the tournament to start this year, fingers crossed I can defend my title."
"We can all remember back to summer 2013 when the whole of Merton and the rest of the country got behind Andy Murray as he claimed the famous Wimbledon trophy for the country," said Mayor Akyigyina.
"It has given me great pleasure in granting him the freedom of Merton. He has done so much for tennis as a sport and has brought significant reputational benefits to Merton as a great place to visit and a place where it's good to work and live."
Murray will open his title defence on Centre Court on Monday against Belgium's David Goffin.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
Fabulous mountaintop location, close proximity to Rome , Villa D'Este and Villa Adriana, the many panoramic Travertine terraces, the 14 x 7 meter swimming pool with a large children's shallow water area, and exceptional distant views of Rome and surrounding hillside villages are only some of the features that have made Villa Chui a memorable retreat in the Rome area.
This exclusive, gated property is an oasis of privacy and security. Villa Chui is reached via majestic hand-laid stone driveways and is situated amidst hilly walking paths, shade trees, and well-groomed grounds with abundant roses, hydrangeas and wild cyclamens.
The Italian owners recently restored this 6-bedroom villa with great care and it is a perfect combination of modern comfort and excellent taste. They have appointed the interiors to a very high standard filled with interesting furnishings, rare art and objects from around the world. After their stay, guests will long remember the travertine and alabaster sculptures adorning the gardens, pool and home and the many beautiful paintings that give this villa its character. Some other features of Villa Chui are the unique trophy room, the piano hall, and the delightfully warm and relaxing atmosphere of the elegant and spacious living room with its cozy fireplace. Guests fond of cooking will truly appreciate the main kitchen, which is known for its rustic style and informality, especially when the fireplace offers warmth and ambience. The chef is happy to take requests and will coordinate all of the food shopping as required for your stay.
The convenient location of this impressive property, just outside of the charming village of Tivoli, makes Villa Chui a favourite getaway for guests, as it is only a 35-minute drive from Rome. Travellers wishing to explore the Eternal City and its surrounding attractions, while discovering the charms of an Italian home and being without the crowds will find Villa Chui an appealing option.
Villa Chui is also the ideal place for large families, business retreats, as well as for a group of friends seeking a peaceful reprieve away from the bustle of the cities.
After a long day of sight seeing, guests will appreciate the haven of Villa Chui. Guests enjoy sitting on one of the several terraces, drinking a glass of local wine while watching the breathtaking sunsets as they overlook nearby and distant mountain ranges dotted with olive groves, mustard fields and the reflective pool of Villa Adriana. On clear days, they can see St. Peter's Dome and far off in the distance the Tyrrhenian Sea. A stay at Villa Chui is truly a restorative and memorable experience.
Dear Nicola - thank you very very much for your service and your fantastic villa. We enjoyed the stay in Tivoli and we love the view from your villa to Tivoli and Rome by night. The holidays in your villa Chui was fantastic and we are all so happy that we had such a good time and holidays in your house. We enjoyed the fantastic view and amazing marble sculptures and your unique art collection is fanatstic ! Once more thank you, thank you, thank you
. . . and Nicola and his family, Palma and Umberto, and Villa Chui were all very significant reasons why!
Villa Chui is every bit as beautiful as it looks in the pictures on the website, sitting atop a hill overlooking Tivoli, Hadrian's villa and St Peter's Basilica in the distance. It provides the perfect combination of proximity to Rome for sightseeing and the opportunity to just relax by the pool when desired.
From our first contact with Nicola via email, through his assistance in planning the trip before our arrival and with his continuous attention during our stay, he could not have been more responsive or accommodating to our every need. Since we had decided not to rent a car(s) for our group of seven, Nicola helped arrange transfers to/from the airport, Tivoli and Rome when needed. Although we didn't use it, there was also easy access to the train into Rome if desired. In addition, Nicola put us in touch with an excellent local tour guide, who took us on two days of tours of Rome and one day to Florence and wine country – a great way to get the most out of our limited time!
At our request, Nicola organized an informal wine tasting our first night at Villa Chui, together with his father and brother (his mother, who could not be there, made delicious desserts for us to enjoy). Not only was this a great introduction to Italian wines, but to Nicola and his family as well. It was like they were old friends!
Palma and Umberto are special people who not only take care of Villa Chui, but who took special care of our family while we were there. Palma prepared a delicious, 'traditional Italian meal' (4 courses!) for our first night, which led to our request for her services at the end of each of our sightseeing days. Each meal was unique, thoroughly enjoyable and the perfect ending to a perfect day!
I could go on, but by now you probably understand that we would highly recommend Villa Chui to anyone looking for a similar experience. While the sights and history of Rome and Tivoli are truly amazing, it was our new friendships and the sharing of this beautiful villa that made this a truly unique and memorable experience for our family.
Villa Chui soared above our highest expectations as a gathering place for our families and wedding ceremony. Highly situated amongst the stars and tucked away above Villa Este, Hadrian's Villa, and overlooking Rome, Italy, Villa Chui resides deep within our hearts. The architecture, landscape, interior feel, and warm staff make it The Premier Villa in Tivoli.
Everyone was charismatic and interwoven into Italian culture so that my wife and I felt only comfort, fortitude, and elation while we were there; even amongst the stressful interlay of a wedding on foreign soil. I cannot begin to express my words of thanks for the hospitality and grace of Nicola (who spoke fluent English), his family, and the staff. I can only hope and pray for their continued success and wish them the same feeling of euphoria we had at Villa Chui every day and night into the future. They were wonderfully accommodating and we will return at our first opportunity.
Thanks for the magnificent stay and Auguri!
Jules & Stephanie
Where does one begin to describe the beauty of Villa Chui?
The location alone is breathtaking. Set high above the hills
of Tivoli, the view is amazing. Hadrian's Villa directly below with Rome in the distance. Beautiful sunsets every night while dining out on the terrace.
The pool was a wonderful respite to come back to after a day
of touring. It was very large, clean and beautiful. It was also a
wonderful place to relax for the day if you didn't feel like going out.
The villa itself was large, and even though we were only a family
of four, it could easily accomodate many more people. It was very
clean and was exactly the way it is depicted on the website.
The grounds were impeccably kept thanks to the caretaker on
site as well as the maid who made sure that the interior was always
spotless. The meals that were made for us were delicious and
Last but not least, our host Nicola, the villa's owner, was absolutely
wonderful. Very helpful in every respect. Showing us where to
shop in town and also in recommending what towns we should
visit that were close by. He was always just a phone call away for
providing whatever it was we needed. We could not speak more
highly of him.
We would highly recommend the Villa Chui. It is guaranteed to be
a memorable experience. We certainly would love to go back again
one day.
We are still dreaming about our family vacation at Villa Chui, even after several months of our departure! The house is fabulous, with incredible views of Rome. The house is immaculately kept and decorated, with very spacious rooms for an entire extended family or group of friends to gather. The home is equipped with all of the modern conveniences (screens for every window!). The home provides incredible views of Rome in the distance, we could even see St. Peter's Basilica on a clear day. The main floor plan flows nicely outside to a very large stone patio that overlooks Rome. We often gathered on this patio to eat our lunch and prosciutto and wine before dinner. The patio also has an amazing view of the sun setting over Rome. Trust me, you will watch the sunset from this patio on your 1st night and you will make sure you are back at Villa Chui every evening before dark to witness this spectacular event. We watched the sunset from this patio every night, that is, when we weren't watching the sunset from the fabulous outdoor lighted pool about 12 steps above the patio. Most of the bedrooms are on the second floor, along with multiple bathrooms that provide much privacy for your group. Villa Chui is located about 5 minutes from a commuter train and in approx. 45 minutes you can be at the steps of ancient Rome. You will definitely look forward to your return to Villa Chui at the end of the day for a dip in the pool and the amazing sunset.
The owners of Villa Chui are the most charming and gracious people that you will ever meet! Nicola made us feel like old friends from the first moment that we met; he showed us around the local area, he took us shopping and we met his parents and sister's family for coffee - he even gave us a night-tour of the area on our last night in Rome - Nicola is a truly delightful and charming host! The owners checked-in on us daily to make sure we had everything we needed, and they provided extremely valuable guidance of the area during our stay. We will remember Nicola and his family with equal fondness of the incredible insights of Rome. We are extremely thankful to them for their hospitality and we look forward to seeing our new Italian friends in the future!
The caretakers on the property were very helpful and they were available to take us into town for groceries or a restaurant or to assist us with local merchants if we needed an interpreter.
If you want to live like Italian royalty, then this is your villa!
This villa and the hospitality we received was excellent in everyway. It was the best villa that we have stayed in and this is throughout the world.Nicola was charming and did everything to make our stay enjoyable. The villa was superb and the website did not do it justice! In reality it was far better! It was living in someone's home with all family photos antiques beautiful furniture grand piano and luxurious surroundings. All the facilities were as described and more so. The villa and outside areas were beautifully and carefully kept with the highest standards of cleanliness throughout., The kitchen facilities were excellent with plenty of everything. Umberto and Parma were only too willing to help in everyway and they made our stay very comfortable. The wine cellar was very well stockedwhich it needed to be for the eight of us Mrs Pascucci(Nicola's mum) made lovely Italian cakes which went well with both our coffees and liquers.It was a wonderful experience and thank you.We would love to return sometime
The only thing more charming than Villa Chui itself was the owner, Nicola.
We were a group of 11 adults (related) and stayed a week a Villa Chui. The property is absolutely stunning and very comfortable. We never felt crowded with the six bedrooms and 5.5 baths. There was plenty of space and privacy, and we were able to enjoy each other's company at the large dining table with delicious meals prepared by the wonderful caretakers Palma and Umberto.
Nicola and his family went out their way to make us feel welcome, and he was in touch throughout the week to help us find tour guides, suggest things to do, or anything else we might need. One evening we returned to find a delicious lasagna prepared by his Mother; on another an out-of-this world tiramisu.
You will need a car at this property – it is located at the top of a hill near Tivoli – spectacular views! We took the train into Rome a few days, and on others drove to Florence and Assisi. Don't miss nearby attractions Villa d'Este and Hadrian's Villa (which you can see from Villa Chui!).
Our only regret is that we were not there for a two-week stay. I dream of returning here, and recommend this property highly. Thank you Nicola and family for sharing your beautiful home!
Tivoli is also known as the City of Arts and Culture - two out of the ten most visited monuments of Italy are in Tivoli - Villa D'Este and the world famous Hadrian Villa are both part of UNESCO and are home to magnificent treasures. In addition there is the spectacular Villa Gregoriana, the Temple of Vesta and Sibilla - the Medieval part of town and other attractions and places of interest.

Alex Wood, a Ukip candidate in Thursday's local elections, was suspended from the party after the photo appeared in a newspaper.
Mr Wood has denied that the gesture he was making at the time was a Nazi salute.
In a blog for the Huffington Post website, Mr Farage said that Mr Wood "has been very unfairly treated".
"I must confess, I nearly had kittens when I first saw this," Mr Farage said. "I've looked carefully into this and spoken to Alex, and I believe him when he says that he was angrily trying to take a camera off his girlfriend who was annoyingly taking pictures of him in the pub imitating a pot plant.
"These things happen - I should know! The fact that this is supported by the people who were with him that night suggests that he has been very unfairly treated."
Ukip leader Nigel Farage
Mr Wood yesterday admitted that he was the man depicted in the photo but denied the gesture he was making was a Nazi salute.
"These are pictures that have been taken from a private Facebook account," he said. "These are not what they seem to be. The supposed salute was my left hand reaching for a friend's mobile phone."
Elsewhere in his blog Mr Farage said he was "pleased" that Sushil Patel, the father of Conservative MP Priti Patel, was standing as a candidate for his party.
Mr Patel's candidature was disclosed by Mr Farage during a rally in David Miliband's former South Shields constituency, ahead of a by-election there on Thursday.
In an interview with The Telegraph shortly afterwards, Mr Patel insisted Ukip was not a party which tolerated racism, despite criticism of some of its candidates' comments in recent days.
He said: "Ukip is not a racist party – it is daylight coming through the darkness hours of this country … Ukip is not racist — they are trying to make progress."
Mr Patel, who emigrated from east Africa, added that many communities had settled in Britain and if the country "was genuinely racist it would be chaos by now".
Mr Patel said he was standing for elderly people who live locally and who "don't make a noise publicly, but given the chance on a ballot paper they will speak out".
He said that he had not told his daughter about his plans: "She doesn't know anything about it – I don't see why she should know. She is an independent person, on her own course. I had no reason really [to tell her] – I am an independent person myself.
"I am very proud of what she has achieved — she was a local Conservative here in Hertfordshire. It is up to her to accept it because I know she is a Eurosceptic."
However, shortly after the interview, Mr Patel said he was standing down from the election. While his photograph was being taken by a Telegraph cameraman outside his home in Hertfordshire, Mr Patel was called inside to take a phone call and emerged 10 minutes later, saying that he was "withdrawing his candidacy" from the elections and pointing to his back.
The announcement appeared to catch Ukip unawares. Ninety minutes later, the party issued a statement which stressed that Mr Patel was still a candidate, adding that he was "currently convalescing from a recent serious operation and is unable to conduct any further interviews".
Mr Patel said in Ukip's statement: "I am proud of being a Ukip candidate and very proud of the achievements of my daughter who represents the people of Witham in an exemplary fashion.
"My views are my own and I am astonished that there has been quite so much interest in my candidacy."
Later Miss Patel denied that she had pressured her father to stand down as a Ukip candidate. She told The Telegraph: "I have spoken to my Dad and I told him it was up to him what he does.
"My Dad was in hospital for major surgery on his back, which is why I am so shocked because I thought he was at home recovering.
"No matter what, whatever the outcome of this, he is still my Dad and I still love him. Nothing will change that, not even Ukip."

The National cancel Turkish gig due to police violence in Istanbul
The band were due to play Istanbul Calling later this month
The band have cancelled the June 23 show following reports of 'excessive violence' used by police on peaceful protestors who have spent the past two weeks campaigning against Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Last night (June 11) an estimated 2,500 people were injured in and around Taksim Square. The band took to their Facebook page to write:
We're sad to report that our Istanbul show has been cancelled. We support the right to peaceful protest and hope that excessive violence by riot police ends quickly. #direngeziparki

Braised Soy Sauce Chicken
|Roasting chicken
|4 Pound
|Dark soy sauce
|1 1⁄2 Cup (24 tbs)
|Cold water
|2 Cup (32 tbs)
|Chinese rice wine
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|Ginger root slice
|Whole star anise
|Rock sugar
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs), broken into small pieces
|Sesame oil
|1 Tablespoon
Wash the chicken inside and out under cold running water.
Dry thoroughly with paper towels.
In a heavy pot just large enough to hold the chicken snugly, bring the soy sauce, water, wine, ginger root, and star anise to a boil, then add the chicken.
The liquid should reach halfway up the side of the chicken.
Bring to a boil again, reduce to moderate heat and cook, covered, for 20 minutes.
Turn the chicken over, add the rock sugar and simmer 20 minutes longer, basting frequently.
Turn off the heat, cover the pot and let the chicken cook for 1/2 hour to 1 hour.
Transfer the chicken to a chopping board and brush it with sesame oil.
With a cleaver disjoin the wings and the leg with thigh on each side.
Set aside.
Now turn the body on its side, cut through it lengthwise so that the entire breast is separated from the back.
Now the chicken is cut into 6 pieces (2 wings, 2 legs with thighs, and 1 back and 1 breast).
First chop the entire back piece crosswise into 1 inch wide (2.5 cm) pieces.
Arrange them in the center of a platter.
Then cut the entire breast the same way into 1 inch wide (2.5 cm) pieces.
Place them on top of the back pieces.
Cut each wing at one joint into 2 pieces and place them at each side of the body.
Finally chop the leg with thigh crosswise into 4 or 5 pieces and place them at their respective places around the body.

Hi Guys,
I've just installed SP1 for Visual Studio 2008, and on my ASP .NET 2 project I now get this error where before it used to compile:
Make sure that the class defined in this code file matches the 'inherits' attribute, and that it extends the correct base class (e.g. Page or UserControl).
I've tried Google but none of the solutions relate to me as it's just a standard ASP .NET page. Infact every time I compile the error crops up on a different page (but only one error is ever shown in the list).
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Aug 12, 2008 04:02 PM|Kodo|LINK
Same problem here. Only happens in web sites targeting 3.5. The work around is to put the CodeFileBaseClass attribute in your page directive.
ex: CodeFileBaseClass="System.Web.UI.Page"
Now if they would fix not being able to run the debugger under IIS 6, I would be a happy camper.
Aug 12, 2008 06:06 PM|Mikhail Arkhipov (MSFT)|LINK
How does page directive look at the page? Does it have CodeFile= attribute or CodeBehind attribute?
Aug 12, 2008 06:17 PM|Kodo|LINK
It's just a default page. e.g. Add New Item => WebForm
creates Default.aspx .. nothing special here, all standard stuff. Thank god I have VMWare or this SP1 would have screwed me big time; there was no way to uninstall it in the list of installed programs.
Now, create a new web project and target 2.0.. and you should have no problems; well, at least not with that part.. getting it to debug using NTLM is a different matter.
I'm disappointed with this release. The bugs, among other things and the fact that it's called SP1 and not 3.6 especially considering all the
new things added. What ever happened to SP's are only for fixes?
Aug 12, 2008 06:28 PM|Mikhail Arkhipov (MSFT)|LINK
SP1 can be uninstalled from the list of updates (in XP, click 'Show Updates' checkbox in Add/Remove Programs, on Vista, click "View Installed Updates" in Programs and features.
Aug 12, 2008 06:30 PM|Mikhail Arkhipov (MSFT)|LINK
The scenario is very basic and it obviously works for many people. Looks like incorrect framework install to me. Perhaps checking version numbers on .NET 3.5 dlls and compiler version may help.
Aug 12, 2008 06:32 PM|xinqiu|LINK
I'm trying to figure out your NTLM debugging problem on my lab win2k3 box, but could not repro. Could you give me some details on your repro? Thanks!
My repro:
1. create a localhost IIS website, like http://localhost/website1 (.net framework 3.5 or .net2.0 website)
2. change the site virdir security as "Integrated Windows authentication" only.
3. F5 the VS website shows no problem, hitting breakpoing shows no problem

Hi Kodo, I'd also like to try and understand the exact repro and steps that you are taking to get the compilation error you've reported at the start of this thread. It sounds like you've opened an existing Web site using VS SP1 and are now seeing this issue - is that correct? We are actively looking at building a repro here to locate any root cause. If you are able to provide repro files or steps on a slimmed down project that would be great. Please also let us know the environment - is this a Web site, web app - local file or IIS etc.

Simon, I can do one better than that.. please contact me at jim _at_ learnvisualstudio.net and perhaps you'll have some time to talk about it. I can type stuff all day long but seeing it in action would problably prove more useful. I can set up a web conference using DimDim.com and we can look at things.
I just tried a plain ole website and I get "could not start aspnet debugging".. so I ctrl+F5 'd it and i get a big "Service Unavailable". Same site works in my backup vm with the only modification begin SP1 being installed.
Aug 12, 2008 07:48 PM|xinqiu|LINK
OK, I can repro your problem now, after mapping the hosts file. I'll report this bug back to our developers and see what they recommend. In the main time, the work around is to use localhost as your custom webserver instead/or use the default webserver... Also, I'm trying to make sure VS2008 RTM works, but has no luck so far, maybe it's not VS related, but windows related.
The repro step is:
1. create a file system based 2.0 C# website, say d:\temp\test1
2. in properties, start options, change to use custom server, base url: http://x.try.com/test1, which is created using IIS inetmgr, and pointing to d:\temp\test1.
3. change %system32%\drivers\etc\hosts file, and add line 127.0.0.1 x.try.com
4. F5 the VS, will get an error message: Unable to start debugging on the webserver. An authenctication error occurred while communicating with the web server. Please see Help for assistance.
Aug 12, 2008 07:49 PM|xinqiu|LINK
OOPs, should use 123try123.com instead of try.com (which is actually valid. ) Anyway, doesn't affect the above message outcome.

I spoke to and worked with Hong and Hongping at MS and set up a web conference with them. I showed them my application and with further effort we were able to figure out what the problem was. They were able to repro the issue and will let me know of a work around and I'm sure they will post it publicly as well.
The problem revolved around the page section in the web config specifying a base page type. So my first guess would be to not use script pages where the aspx doesn't have a codebehind file and to create pages WITH codebehind files in the meantime, specifically setting the inherited classes for that partial page class to your custom base page class.... at least until the good folks at microsoft whip up a fix for us.
A big thanks to them for taking the time to call me and work through the problem. [:D]

Do it!!

In Reply to: Windows 8 just isn't my thing, can I install Windows 7 over by Lee Koo (ADMIN)
I ran the Consumer Preview, and I'm glad I did, I didn't have to go through the curiosity of what I'd be getting myself into running it on one of my machines and not just in a VM.
I stuck with Windows 7 on my gaming rig, and on my laptop I switched over to Ubuntu with Gnome.
Anyway, I wanted to say if you're going to stick with Windows 7 for what might potentially be the rest of time, please do the rest of the world a favor and don't run Internet Explorer. I prefer the non-profit built Firefox, but even Chrome, or Safari for Windows is a better choice than IE. Firefox won't be tracking you in weird unknown ways like Chrome may be, but all of them will give you better security and a more advanced web to enjoy.

Curb Your Apathy
Remember when Hollywood finally got Robert De Niro and Al Pacino in the same movie? And it was sort of like having two great point guards on the same team, but no center? Remember when the Arizona Diamondbacks somehow got the two best starting pitchers in the Major Leagues Curt Schilling and Randy Johnson on the same staff, and it was so awesome they beat the Yankees in the 2001 World Series?
The pairing of the reigning kings of white male neurosis, Woody Allen and Larry David, in Allens newest film, Whatever Works, is going to be one of those two scenarios: crisp perfection or disastrous overload. But which one? How do we decide? How do we get to the Miami Beach Cinematheque by 9:15 p.m. when we have dinner with the Epsteins at 8? Should we call 305-67-FILMS or go to mbcinema.com for advance ten-dollar tickets? And then theres parking. Theres never a space on Washington Avenue. Can your brother Duane give us a ride?

The Relativity Stasis Pistol and Rifle

I was thinking about this.
The Lobi store has Mk XII upgrades of the Tholian set, pretty close to on par with STF gear, for 150 Lobi.
Maybe what Cryptic should do is have 100 Lobi "Upgrade Kits" for the already 50 Lobi store weapons that bring them up to STF Mk XII standards. (And have a 100 Lobi upgrade kit for TOS/Bajoran/other cosmetic weapons.)
The upgrade pack for the Tholian set indicates that they value a COMPLETE Mk XII purple set at 150 Lobi plus EC.
It would make some sense to me if they had a 100 Lobi upgrade kit for the Tholian sword, whip, and Relativity weapons that either upgrades them to a full item set or makes them Elite quality Mk XII weapons.
And it creates a repeatable draw to the Lobi store if, as the game improves, they have upgrades on Lobi items for Lobi.
For example:
Say they do 11 console ships down the road. Maybe the Lobi store could sell you 11 console upgrades of any lockbox ships you own for 100 Lobi and 20k fleet credits.

With more and more cases of serious auto accidents caused by texting and driving making news headlines, it seems that many Americans seem to be in favor of stronger distracted driving laws, tougher enforcement, and harsher penalties. Not surprinsingly, distracted driving accidents now account for a significant percentage of the total number of car accident injuries and fatalities recorded in the country every year.
A a recent poll conducted by the National Safety Council showed that as many as 73% of individuals are in favor of stronger enforcement of texting and driving laws. Half of the men and women surveyed also supported more stringent penalties for disctracted driving; including losing one's driver's license, increased auto insurance premiums, and higher citation penalties for repeat offenders. If you or a loved one was injured in a San Fernando Valley car accident, and the other driver was texting while driving, contact an experienced auto accident lawyer.
As many drivers are aware, California has laws in place that ban both texting while driving and the use of hand-held cell phones while driving. Perhaps the rather mild penalties associated with breaking these laws accounts for the seeming lack of compliance to these rules by drivers throughout the state. One thought is that stricter penalties might lead to less texting and driving and therefore, fewer auto accidents.
It is important to take measures to reduce your chances of being involved in a distracted driving accident. A few guidelines recommended by the National Safety Council include avoiding using a cell phone while at the wheel and switching off your cell phone before you begin driving. If you are a passenger in a car and the driver's cell phone rings, ask if you can answer the call or let it go to voicemail.
Again, texting and driving causes too many serious car accidents in the San Fernando Valley.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Sep 01st, 1997
Running Time: 83
Director: Rod Fontana
Company: Tight Ends Productions
Cast: Dick Nasty, Don Fernando, Lynn Isuso, Neneva, Pearl Essence, Rod Fontana, Kimi Ji, Mikka Choix, Ron Jeremy
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gonzo
In this "Asian Invasion," much of the videography is washed out, and the angles are hardly inspiring, but every once in a while a few sparks of anal 'n' facial heat bring the bootie barbecue back to life. A nasty jailhouse number with Nasty and Fontana doing the d.p. hustle with one of the hotter gals showcases the cast in just the right environment.
