**Rife with spoilers, so read ahead at your own risk.**
Yo, how exciting is this. We get a whole new Star Trek universe. Really. Not just new actors, but straight up a different universe. Time travel can be awesome that way, if indeed in the writing, its ramifications and/or consequences are fleshed out and really adhered to. None of this if we kill the villain and thwart his plot, everything goes back to the way it was supposed to be, and we all live happily ever after. In this new film, people's lives are irrevocably changed. I like that.
OK, a couple of things. What this film gets right is that the hotness in Star Trek is and always has been Spock (though I have selected an image with no Spock). He has always been much more of an interesting, layered, complex character that Kirk. This film gives Spock that. It isn't just the relationship, the bromance between Spock and Kirk that gets reimagined and recharged, although the fact that they come into each other adversarially is a breath of fresh air. As we know from Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan, Kirk is the only Starfleet captain who has ever passed the Kobayashi Maru test. We knew that he cheated in order to pass. Here, we actually get to see him taking the Kobayashi Maru test, and here we learn that it was Spock who programmed the test. During the test taking, Kirk is not just overconfident. He's an asshole. That's right, I've said it. James Tiberius Kirk is an asshole. One constant in any universe, however altered by time travel, is this: despite his being an asshole, despite his being not terribly remarkable, he is always treated as if he is special.
But I meant to talk about Spock, this one being the hotness and all. It isn't really his story as the "half breed" child that is interesting. That can be thought of as cliche, being caught between two worlds, not belonging to either, having to choose. But unlike Kirk, upon whom specialness is bestowed merely because he is the good old American boy, Spock's hotness is deserved. Perhaps it's the actor and the acting (though I know nothing about Zachary Quinto), or the way the character was written and directed. There is so much going on with his character, all seething beneath the suppressed emotions. It's all just right there, just beneath the skin and so well controlled. Not only has he witnessed his own mother's death as he was so close to saving her, he has witnessed the destruction of his home world and billions of his people. Because he isn't emoting all over the place doesn't mean he isn't experiencing and even expressing emotion. He is the one who is being tested beyond comprehension and emerging unbroken. Compared to this, Kirk's challenges as a rebellious, aimless, fatherless son to me are not so impressive.
In this universe, the Vulcan race has succumbed to genocide at the hands of the Romulans, who also have experienced the destruction of their home world or civilization. Another thing: I like that the writers didn't shy away from using that word. Genocide. As this articulation of Star Trek continues, there is no backtracking on this. There is always the possibility of more time travel, but to what other results? Changing this universe was a good strategy for J.J. Abrams and crew. This way, while we get glimpses of the stuff we love or just know well from ST: TOS, he can feel relatively free to depart from the Star Trek canon, make new a mythology. This means no rehashing exhausted story lines, and no new actors having to be shackled to the old actors' performances.
And we do see and hear many familiar things:
Karl Urban as Dr. McCoy! Absolutely transformed (you do not see any Éomer at all), as if he were channeling DeForest Kelley. And it wasn't just the "My God, Jim!" or the "Damnit, man!" or the "I'm a doctor! Not a physicist!" It was the specifics of his enunciation and posture, that space fearing, crotchety old man in a not so old man's body.
Simon Pegg as Scotty! "I'm giving you all she's got, captain!" at that crucial moment in which the ship can potentially fly apart at the seams, throwing wild theories into the air and throwing his hands up as he does. As I've said before, I don't really recall Scotty in ST:TOS being so witty and comedic as he became in the feature films, so I might just have to revisit the episodes. Still, it's that Scotty energy I love, that lightness even in the most dire situations.
What to say about John Cho. Dig if you will this picture: Hikaru Sulu fencing (of course) against a Romulan upon a giant Romulan planet drilling drill, after a hell of an adrenaline rush space dive scene (in which a red shirt bit it big time). With a high tech collapsible advanced metallurgy katana. I do wish we could have actually seen a more physical fight here, though I do not see John as that physical an actor (as in, how Karl Urban is a physical actor, though he wasn't utilized as such here).
Last thing for now. There is no breathing room in this film, not even in its light or comedic moments. It's just full throttle the whole way. This is not a complaint. This Trekkie came out of yesterday's IMAX screening (mini-IMAX in Emeryville) pleased. Add to this Leonard Nimoy, and the film's sweetness I think came together quite nicely.

New Generation of Video Games Are a 'Wiilly' Good Time
By Elizabeth Simpson, The Virginian-Pilot, Norfolk, Va.
Jun. 23–Want to see a fitness instructor cry?
Say these two phrases next to each other:
Hours of summer freedom.
New computer video game!
But all is not lost over at the Paull household in Virginia Beach.
It's the first Monday of summer vacation, and 5-year-old Tiernan Paull is running after a yellow dog in the living room.
Lush green trees flash by, waterfalls flow in the background, and bouncy music makes this whole exercise seem like a game.
Hey, wait a minute, it is a game.
It's the new Wii Fit.
"First you follow the human," Tiernan says, his red hair bobbing up and down on his head as a cartoonish replica of himself runs down a path on the video screen. "And then you follow the dog. You keep running till the finish line."
There's even a trainer — OK, not a personal one — but a disembodied voice and words on the TV screen to urge him on:
"You're halfway there! Keep going!"
There was an odd turnabout in the Paull household last month. It wasn't the kids fighting to stand in line for the latest video craze, but 35-year-old mom Robyn Roche-Paull. She got up before dawn the day Wii Fit was released to stand at Target for two hours.
She was second in line. Her three children — 5, 9 and 12 — couldn't get over it:
Mom standing in line for a computer game.
She liked the idea of a game that got her kids off the sofa and figured it would be exercise she could fit in between a full-time job, household duties and running kids to their activities.
The Wii Fit is a game by Nintendo — retails for about $90 — that fits into the Wii video game console. It comes with a board you stand on that can detect your weight, balance and movements.
You can choose from yoga, balance games, aerobics and strength training. The board figures out your body mass index, keeps track of how often you're exercising, measures whether you're losing or gaining weight, and whether you're keeping your balance correctly. It even admonishes you if it hasn't seen you in a while.
"Well, if it isn't Mommy," says the Wii system when Roche-Paull, who admits she hadn't been on in a week, climbs on board for yoga.
Is it being sarcastic?
"I haven't figured that out yet."
She clicks on the yoga program and assumes the position of the lithe person on the screen, two arms ups, one leg held akimbo. A red dot on the screen tracks her center of gravity and alerts her if she's unbalanced.
"Let's work together on improving your posture," the trainer says. "… Breathe slowly as you hold this position. … Visualize your spine stretching."
"Yeah, mom feel your spine streeeeettch," 12-year-old Morgan says from the sideline.
Daughter Siobhan, 9, stands by her side and assumes a like position.
Siobhan, though, prefers the more active hula hoop game, where she swings her hips side to side as her "Mii" replica on screen spins the hulas on her hips. Then Siobhan points her hands in the air to catch hula hoops that come flying her way.
"Mom, what's your score on hula hoops?"
"Seven hundred and ninety-eight. I almost cracked 800. One more rotation and I could have gotten it."
The system keeps track of what all the family members do , both in terms of the time they spend on the game and how well they measure up on balance and precision.
At the end of every game, it lists the person who has logged the most points.
"I'm still in the lead on yoga, yessss," Roche-Paull said, pulling her fist to her waist.
This is her family's review:
First, the pros. It's fun and entertaining. It pulls you in with the competitive nature of it. You want to log more hours to get more points. There are a lot of games on the system, and once you hit a certain level, it unlocks a harder set of exercises.
You can use it in private at home, and it's always available no matter the time or day, or the level of the smoke warning outside.
The cons: It's set up for one person to play at a time. Someone is still left lounging on the sofa. Mom's complaint is you can't set up a routine of favorite exercises to do over and over. You have to keep returning to the main menu.
Roche-Paull said it doesn't replace the kind of workout she can get on her ellip tical machine — each exercise takes a fairly short time.
The balance board gives you a "Wii Fit Age," based on weight, height and fitness indicators it tracks. Roche-Paull said the ages were pretty accurate for her kids, but way off for her.
"It told me I was 49. I may be out of shape — I'm not going to lie about that — but 49?"
And it's not outside. Roche-Paull still kicks the kids out of the house for bike rides and skating and such.
Bottom line:
It's fun.
Siobhan likes it even better than regular video games.
"I like this because when you play Xbox, it cramps up your thumbs."
Another local family's take:
Isabel Perry was skeptical at first.
The 23-year-old graduated from James Madison University in May and figured the Wii Fit her Virginia Beach parents bought wouldn't be much of a substitute for JMU's fitness classes.
Once she started using it, she was hooked by its competitive feel.
Boxing is her favorite.
"As you step forward, throw your first punch from the right side," the trainer says: "Right block, left block, left block. All right, let's do this together."
Perry punches away, stepping forward and back, smacking toward a punching bag on the video screen that could easily double as a stress reducer. "Go for the knockout," the trainer says.
"Ka-boom." Her character on the screen lunges forward, as the real Isabel punches and then breaks out laughing.
Meanwhile, her mother, Socorro Folkes, gives her advice from the sideline.
"I like them to do the exercises proper ly," Socorro said.
Next, Socorro's husband, 38-year-old William, gives the aerobics a try.
If you do it a certain way, with the proper timing and with your arms pumping appropriately, you get more points.
And it lets you know if you did it right or not, a point that's often in dispute.
"He normally gets mad," Socorro said about her husband. "He'll go, 'But I did that!' "
"I'll be in my room and he'll be in here alone, and I'll hear him say, 'I did that!'" Isabel said.
Socorro, 48, prefers the hula hoop game.
"My stomach is hurting," she says, swaying her hips and laughing at the same time.
"Don't go so fast," Isabel says. "Go slower. Large, neat circles."
Their review: Fun, engaging, keeps you coming back for more.
William says he didn't give up his runs outside on the Navy base where he's a chief warrant officer, but he still likes spending time on the Wii Fit .
Even if he has to yell at it now and again.

A senior official of the Income Tax Department on Friday offered a rare public rebuttal of industry lobbies' campaign against the General Anti-Avoidance Rules (GAAR) and "retrospective" amendments. Addressing a conference on international tax laws organised by the Bangalore Chamber of Industry and Commerce, P.S. Chhina, Income Tax Commissioner (Bangalore), asked, "Are we a banana republic to be dictated by the whims of investors operating from Mauritius?"
While admitting that there was a need to remove "ambiguities" in tax laws, Mr. Chhina pointed out that the GAAR proposals were made in the context of the growing public outcry about the disruptive and pernicious role of corruption and black money in Indian society.
"Things were blown out of proportion when we tried to fix the loopholes," he observed.
He said that the media had also played a role in creating a scare that foreign investors would be deterred by GAAR.
"While industry groups have indulged in hectic lobbying against GAAR, Mauritius, a tax haven, is sitting pretty," he remarked. He conceded that GAAR rules ought to be transparent.
Jahanzeb Akhtar, Income Tax Commissioner, urged industry bodies such as the BCIC to address the problem of "round tripping" by Indian companies.
Round tripping refers to the practice of routing funds (generally black money) from India to tax havens such as Mauritius and then bringing them back to India in the guise of investment by foreign investors.
Infosys Chief Financial Officer V. Balakrishnan said that the moves to amend tax laws with retrospective effect, in the wake of the Vodafone judgment by the Supreme Court, have affected investor sentiment.
K.R. Sekar, partner, Deloitte Haskins and Sells, said that the move has "increased uncertainties in the minds of investors".
The two-day conference concludes on Saturday.

Q. "How do I know what my pressure will be once I install a booster pump?"
A. Pump total pressure boost should be added to current household system pressure to determine total system pressure when boosted. Note: It is not recommended to exceed 80 psi total boosted household pressure. Example: Household system pressure before boost = 30 psi. Add the total pump pressure (for this example we'll use model 17035R020PC1, which has a boost of +35 psi) so 30 psi + 35 psi = 65 psi. Your total boost after pressure would be 65 psi.
Q. "What is the purpose of the pressure tank?"
A. It is designed to minimize motor startup due to small flow demand or a minor leak in your water system.
We hope that we have helped you on this page with water pressure booster pumps,

Back in March, we reviewed the Logisys Case-51, which received an 8/10, due to it's great style and awesome air flow. This time around, we are taking a look at the Case-51W, which is essentially the same case, but with a window. Read the review to see if the various changes on this model made the case any better.
In the end, did the Windowed version of the Case-51 generally improve over the original case? Well, that's a yes and no answer. Yes, it finally has a window, and that's something I wanted since the first version. It also has a RGBY LED fan on the case. But wait! Looking at the photos below, you can see that it's not a RGBY fan, but rather a Blue LED fan. I actually prefer the Blue, but in their description, it states a RGBY one.
Since the case is similar to the first one, it still has plenty of space inside, and looks fantastic. The matte black color is great, and really adds to the effect of the theme. One thing though, is that I expected the paint job to be better. Looking at the picture below, you can see at the top of the front plate, there is a color differential happening, where one shade of black looks different than the other, on the same piece.
One more problem to point out, is that the window side didn't close absolute flush for me, leaving a minor gap, exposing the silver inside. This is not very noticeable, unless you are looking for it. I only noticed this when I put everything back together after installing the components.
Those gripes aside, it's still a good case. Though the included PSU leaves much to be desired, the overall price is still nothing to complain about, especially if you plan to use this as a case for your second PC, or as a case that doesn't cost much money, but doesn't look like crap.
Thanks to Grace from Logisys for allowing us to review the case!

I'm trapped in one now with my bf. I'm the hotter of the two. We've been together six years, and we were pretty much on par in terms of looks when we met. People used to jokingly refer to us as "book ends," which we loved. While I've kept up my appearance, he has totally let his looks go. He stopped going to the gym regularly, not to mention the cheap dockers, the bad haircuts, and lack of manscaping. I love him to death, but I'm not much attracted to him anymore. And to be frank, it's a little embarrassing to be seen with him. I know people are whispering things like what do I see in my bf and how could I be with him. For good or for bad, we live in an area of the city where a premium is placed on good looks, and other guys frown on not looking good. I've been trying to get him to get back to the gym, go shopping etc., but he claims he's too busy at work. Well baby, I'm busy too, but that doesn't stop me from maintaining my looks. On paper, we're monogamous. I don't want to officially open it up/go "monogamish" if we don't have to, but I am frustrated. I don't want to toss in the towel, because, as I said, I love the guy. Anyone else in this type of looks-incompatible relationship who can offer some pointers for rectifying things?

|Half Baths
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 - 7 nights
This house is situated in Venta Lanuza on a small complex in a beautiful sandy cove beach setting over looking the Mediterranean. The balcony has a glorious sea view, ideal for you to while away the time with a glass of wine watching the ships and fishing boats sail past. A car isn't essential as transport is readily available with a state of the art tram system situated just yards from the house that will transport you on a scenic ride north to Benidorm or south to Alicante. Along the coast you will pass historic and interesting towns such as Villajoyosa and Cala Finestrat both of which have long sandy beaches. Our nearest town is El Campello, with its beautiful long promenade, large marina and safe sandy beaches. On the complex there is a large communal pool with adjoining children's pool. The house has private paved patio/patio furniture and delegated parking space. A beach bar is just a couple of minutes walking distance.
The Costa Blanca has been named as one of the healthiest places to live and rest assured you will love this area with its own beach and beautiful blue sea. The restaurants serve wonderful local fresh produce and the Spanish menu del dia (menu of the day) is excellent value. The area is ideally situated for touring. RENTAL RATE WILL BE REDUCED IF IT IS FOR JUST 2 PEOPLE.
This is an excellent spot for a quiet and relaxing vacation. This gated community was quiet, safe and very clean. It had a very nice fresh water pool.
The house was clean, well furnished with all the extras to just unpack and begin relaxing. Everything was in good order and working properly. The shaded patio over looking the ocean was the highlight for my family of 5. We ate every meal on the patio and it was fantastic.
Another incredible extra was the electric tram outside the back gate of the complex. There is really no need to rent a car...this tram takes you everywhere you need to go. Just a few tram stops away is a hugh Carrefour very close to the tram stop....an easy walk even with groceries. The tram can also take you to dozens of different beaches and quaint villages. The beaches range from small rocky coves to beautiful white sand beaches 8 kms long. Alicante is a super medium size town for shopping, eating and sightseeing.
Another plus was dealing with the owner. She was very helpful, prompt and flexible in working with us.
I would definitely rent this place again and recommend it to anyone looking for a place on the Spanish coast.
What a wonderful escape me and my family had here in the summer of 2014.
As stated in the overview, this lovely beach house boasts stunning sea views in a peaceful area.
The house is beautifully equipped. The living area offers a great kitchen space, with a dining table and a very comfortable lounge area that also offers a good TV and music system. With two toilets and the option of a bath or a shower in the main bathroom, this property is ideal for the smaller or family party. Both bedrooms were very comfortable and the view from both rooms is just beautiful.
The outdoor patio area is perfect for leisurely catching the sun or eating meals.
The beach is a stone throw away with a beach bar that provides a range of beverages, snacks and meals.
Most importantly, this getaway can be as quiet or as busy as you wish thanks to the tram line that stops 2 minutes from the house itself. This tram line offers a range of stops along the Costa Blanca from the likes of Benidorm to Alicante. If you wish to visit the Spanish life along the coast, there are many beautiful Spanish towns to explore such as El Campello and Vila Joiosa.
Correspondence with the owner Janet and guidance from 'Judy' (who lives on the site and provides you with the property keys on arrival) really was helpful from the beginning until the end of the booking.
We really hope to return again soon as this location really does offer so many choices! It really is a wonderful holiday property.
This was an excellent property very clean well equipped perfect location for a quiet beach
5 minutes walk from house. The upstairs balcony was a perfect position to see the sea.
The house itself was very well maintained and very well equipped for a family.The local train was excellent and we went around the coast to different places. All in all a lovely location and an excellent property. I will be looking to book again next year. All of my family thoroughly enjoyed it very relaxing.
The house was absolutely fabulous, we had every creature comfort we needed and the beach equipment was great to have.
We used airport transfer recommended by owner...lovely guy even picked us up a few bits in the shop as we arrived quite late.
Location was great for beach & tram...
I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quite, relaxing holiday. Area itself is quite and a local shop is needed, however, closeness to tram station meant no car is required. (Note to anyone with kids...tram is free for kids under 10, we only found this out on our last day.)
Lovely small beach with little beach bar. No need to rent sun beds or parasols as everything was in the house.
Pool area & grounds were so well maintained. Kids had a ball here, very residential feel to the place and quite secure.
The owner Jan was lovely to deal with & ever so helpful.
I would definitely recommend this house if not use it again ourselves.
Every thing you want in a relaxing holiday. This was our first holiday self catering for five years and we couldn't of picked a better location and beach house all you ever could want. The house is well very well equipped from the kitchen to the lounge and very spacious. Two very good sized bedrooms and bathroom with a balcony off one of the bedrooms where we sat with a glass of wine chilling and looking at the fantastic sea view. It has a great patio area for eating outside which as a canopy if you wish to have some shade it was wonderful, also your own private garden which is a great sun trap for sunbathing. Plenty of quaint villages around and managed to visit different ones with the tram that is on the door step and very easy to use. We will certainly be going back thanks to Jan's helpfulness and hospitality. Jackie and Tracey
We have recently returned from Venta Lanuza having holidayed there for one week. We stayed in this nicely furnished and well-kept two bedroom house with our two children. The house is one of a number of modern houses in a holiday complex with a swimming pool. The local beach is within view of the house and is a very short walk to reach. It is in a cove and is very good for swimming, with a lifeguard service and beach bar. The beach equipment readily available in the house, i.e. beach mats, chairs and sun umbrella were very useful to have.
The air conditioning in the house both upstairs and downstairs was very reliable. The house was very well equipped with all the necessary cooking utensils. The house was well kept and prepared for our arrival. The patio area was very relaxing, while the house is situated in a complex, it offered terrific privacy.
The location of the house is quite amenable to other villages and towns and it is not necessary to hire a car as there is a tram station just at the back of the house. The trams travel half hourly to each of the coastal towns and villages while the fare is very reasonable. They are very comfortable, modern, air conditioned and are most reliable in time schedule.
Our children greatly enjoyed the holiday and for them the nearness to the beach was a big factor. This holiday home met our needs and we were most satisfied with it, it was also very useful to have the washing machine in the utility room and another plus was having the downstairs toilet.
Jan, the owner was lovely to deal with and gave us a lot of local information and some very good tips on activities, restaurants and places to see. She gave us a contact number for a pick up and drop off driver service for the airport at an additional but reasonable cost. This was most convenient and helpful. The area was very safe and peaceful, we certainly had a very relaxing, enjoyable and refreshing holiday.
This holiday house in Venta Lanuza situated near a beautiful sandy cove. There is a lovely beach restaurant with a large terrace over looking the sea just a few minutes away. This house has lounge/diner, two bedrooms, 1 double and 2 singles. Fully fitted kitchen with cooker, fridge freezer, washing machine, hot/cold air conditioning, satellite TV with ENGLISH channels, DVD, CD player, microwave, kettle, toaster, cutlery and utensils.TRAVEL COT CAN BE PROVIDED. Towels and bed linen are all provided (except beach towels). There is a large awning fitted over patio doors so you can dine or relax in the shade. There are electric gates to the entry of the complex providing extra security. The area is ideally situated for touring as well as visiting the theme parks of Terra Mittica, Aqualandia and Mundomar.

i was reading the numbers on where the ufc was in 2001 and where they are now…its insane. i've got to hand it to dana and the fertittas…they know how to do business.
UFC Owner Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta and Dana White, to be featured on the cover of Forbes magazine.
Casino moguls Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta bought a violent fight club called Ultimate Fighting Championship–and built it into a billion-dollar sports empire.
It's the Ultimate Money Machine. That night before the Super Bowl 10,700 fans packed the arena, paying an average of $340 for a ticket to witness nine mixed martial arts fights. Another 500,000 fans paid $45 ($55 for high definition) to watch five of the nine fights at home. The total haul from the event: $25 million.
i was reading the numbers on where the ufc was in 2001 and where they are now…its insane. i've got to hand it to dana and the fertittas…they know how to do business.
you have to admit that these brothers + dana are all rich as hell. i bet dana is worth at least $100 million.
I just found this:
Price the Fertittas paid for UFC in 2001: $2 million
Value today: $1 billion-plus
UFC estimated 2008 sales: $250 million
UFC is estimated to control 90% of the mixed martial arts industry.
UFC pay-per-view buys in 2001: 145,000
UFC pay-per-view buys in 2007: 5.1 million
The average UFC pay-per-view event draws 3 million male viewers between 18 and 49–often the same as a big college football GAME.
UFC employs 275 fighters.
Most make more than $100,000 a year.
Superstars make millions.
The average ticket price of a live UFC event in 2007: $250
wow. how rich are those guys???
I guess if they are making so much money, perhaps their fighters should get paid a bit more.
these guys are the top in their division though that are gettin paid that except for brock lesnar…he got paid more than frank mir for gettin beat
i wouldn't have guessed that most of the UFC fighters were making over 6 figures. i wonder how much of that money actually comes from the UFC?

For some reason in May during the five nights that we are there , Fantasmic is only being performed Thursday, May 14th . So, I call on the 11th to make my ADR's and nothing for the Fantasmic package at MaMa Melrose or Hollywood & Vine . Needless to say I was disappointed .
Ashley which I spoke with said call at 7 AM on the 14th as Disney does hold some ADR's open . Has anyone else heard of this ?
So, DS is giving me a wake up call at 6:30 and I'll be on the phone at 6:59 .
Please wish me luck ! I got the others that I wanted .

Devin Miles x LE$ - Houston Astro (Remix)
Artist: Devin Miles
Featuring: Le$
Producer: Ric & Thadeus
Album: This Is How I Live
Avg Rating: 4.6 ( 16 votes )
Although Pennsylvania rapper Devin Miles calls Pittsburgh home that didn't stop the him from featuring a song titled Houston Astro on his This Is How I Live project (available for free stream and download on The DJBooth). With the release of the song's new remix, however, comes a little Houston flavor thanks to an added special guest. For the remixed version of the record Miles enlists Houston emcee LE$, who adds a bit of Southern gusto to the record. In true Houston fashion the production is a woozy combination of sampling and drums which comes courtesy of production duo Ric & Thadeus. The Houston Astro (Remix) can be found on Miles' re-release of This Is How I Live, which can be purchased on iTunes.

A stunning three bedroom, fully upgraded condo with kitchen, washer and dryer, within a fabulous resort complex only 15 mins from Disney. The unit has been upgraded with new beds, carpets, paint, Tv's, living room furniture, kitchen tables and chairs. The location is prime as it is close to Champions Gate, Highland Reserve golf courses, Disney, Universal, Legoland, Shopping Outlets, a new Super Walmart, Publix for groceries, and numerous restaurants just off site on Hwy 27 and 192 as well as an on site restaurant and spa.
Keywords: Condo, 3 bedroom, sleeps 6, resort, luxury, upgraded, washer, dryer, pool, hot tub, restaurant, lake, fishing, golf, tennis, Disney, Legoland, spa
We just simply love going on vacation to Florida. With all the attractions so close by it made a perfect fit for us. There are over 3 outlet malls within 25 mins keeps the wife happy. Disney, Universal, and Legoland keep the kids happy. Best of all nothing is more relaxing than just having a swim in a resort setting, we just love it all.
Steve Szumlinski purchased this condo in 2011
With our young family we needed our vacation time to be spectacular and Bahama Bay has the right facilities for us to relax and then crank it up when the kids want to play
The pool and outdoor activities are some of the favourites, and just having the comforts of home with the condo are a definite plus when going on vacation than staying in a hotel, there is ample space in the 1227sq ft. condo.
Great vacation unit. Close to everything. Fully updated. Owner very nice to work with. Would recommend this and would rent unit again.
What a great "home-away-from-home". So close to everything - parks, restaurants, shopping! Parking always available! Great pool area!
Great week at this property which was centrally located. Check-in and check-out was smooth and fast.
Unit was close to pool which was convenient for my family that included three young kids. The unit included all the comforts of home. My only recommendation would be to provide lighting in the closets.
My only issue with the property itself was with the wi-fi. It was a very weak signal and I often couldn't connect at all.
This was our 8th year to visit the resort but our 1st year for this particular condo. We loved the unit as it has been updated and very nicely furnished and extremely clean. We will definitely want to rent this unit again. We also love all the families we have met in the last 8 years and you cannot wait to see them again the next year. It is a wonderful place to be in the winter months. Enjoy.
We had a great stay at this resort celebrating our sons Birthday our kids had so much fun at the splash pads during the day and it was a very short drive to Disney parks from the Resort. This unit was very clean and comfortable; there is a lot of parking available. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We would recommend this Resort and will use it in the future again.
We had a great stay at Bahamas Bay Resort! A really nice condo. Very clean, spacious and super close to Disney. My kids had a blast! Can't' wait to visit again next year. Thanks so much for a great vacation.
We are located with-in 15 mins of Disney, 35 mins of Legoland, 30 mins of Universal Studios

i try to stay away from number scores because they mean different things to different people in search of different gaming preferences, but i'll do quick reviews of each cuz everyones asleep and i feel like sharing. i have...
zombi u
ninja gaiden
james bond
sonic racing
i liked them all in different ways. i wouldnt have much hesitation giving them all an eight with the exception of scribblenaughts. something just felt off about it. it plays like a list of 'guess the word'chores moreso than an open ended puzzle game, but just randomly creating havoc can be loads of fun by itself. so that saved it for me anyway. (Maxwell sized vibrator that shoots exploding batteries ftw!)
i was a little let down by transformers not allowing you to pick a campaign character, instead making you play a certain bot through a certain level, but it ended up being pretty cool bouncing back and forth and the characters do feel a bit different.
james bond turned out to be a very nice and somewhat challenging alternative to cod that i have no problem recommending to anyone. its lacking a little polish here and there, but overall, as with zombiu, the reviews were just assbackwards and wrong here.
playing batman again with the wiiu interface made it that much cooler and mario games will always be mario games. i'm probably one of the few that wanted a little more from the power up side of the mushroom kingdom, but i really enjoyed my time with it. i'd of liked the secret exit levels to have been a different color on the map, but no biggie.
sonic racing probably has more bang for the buck than anything else out right now and features more 'why the hell isnt mariokart doing this' moments than youd expect a series like this to produce. I bought sonic, along with ninja gaiden almost exclusively because of the miiverse communities and, as if it werent obvious, i've been pleasantly surprised with both.
having said all that, i can see myself trading sonic where i know id keep mariokart. that probably has to do with my not caring for many of the sega characters, but whatever the reason, i'll more than likely be saying goodbye to sonic and transformers when legocity, nfs and aliens come out. Both games are solid, fun and challenging, i'd just rather break legos, run from the cops and kill xenomorphs.
night all
Don't be that guy that's like those guys. It's in poor taste.

Collecting data in the field and configuring multitudes of unique devices is a time-consuming, labor-intensive process that can stretch IT resources. Horan & Bird [H&B], Australia's fifth-largest Solar Panel Installer, wanted to automate sensor data collection and monitoring from its solar panels and integrate the data with its business and marketing systems. After data was collected and structured, two major areas needed to be addressed: improving developer workflows and extending access to a business application to multiple users (multi-tenancy). Docker, a container technology, was used to ...

The true value of the Internet of Things (IoT) lies not just in the data, but through the services that protect the data, perform the analysis and present findings in a usable way. With many IoT elements rooted in traditional IT components, Big Data and IoT isn't just a play for enterprise. In fact, the IoT presents SMBs with the prospect of launching entirely new activities and exploring innovative areas. CompTIA research identifies several areas where IoT is expected to have the greatest impact.

The Industrial Internet revolution is now underway, enabled by connected machines and billions of devices that communicate and collaborate. The massive amounts of Big Data requiring real-time analysis is flooding legacy IT systems and giving way to cloud environments that can handle the unpredictable workloads. Yet many barriers remain until we can fully realize the opportunities and benefits from the convergence of machines and devices with Big Data and the cloud, including interoperability, data security and privacy.

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example t...

The Internet of Things is not only adding billions of sensors and billions of terabytes to the Internet. It is also forcing a fundamental change in the way we envision Information Technology. For the first time, more data is being created by devices at the edge of the Internet rather than from centralized systems. What does this mean for today's IT professional? In this Power Panel at @ThingsExpo, moderated by Conference Chair Roger Strukhoff, panelists will addresses this very serious issue of profound change in the industry.

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Container frameworks, such as Docker, provide a variety of benefits, including density of deployment across infrastructure, convenience for application developers to push updates with low operational hand-holding, and a fairly well-defined deployment workflow that can be orchestrated. Container frameworks also enable a DevOps approach to application development by cleanly separating concerns between operations and development teams. But running multi-container, multi-server apps with containers is very hard. You have to learn five new and different technologies and best practices (libswarm, sy...

The Internet of Things is a misnomer. That implies that everything is on the Internet, and that simply should not be - especially for things that are blurring the line between medical devices that stimulate like a pacemaker and quantified self-sensors like a pedometer or pulse tracker. The mesh of things that we manage must be segmented into zones of trust for sensing data, transmitting data, receiving command and control administrative changes, and peer-to-peer mesh messaging. In his session at @ThingsExpo, Ryan Bagnulo, Solution Architect / Software Engineer at SOA Software, focused on desi...

While great strides have been made relative to the video aspects of remote collaboration, audio technology has basically stagnated. Typically all audio is mixed to a single monaural stream and emanates from a single point, such as a speakerphone or a speaker associated with a video monitor. This leads to confusion and lack of understanding among participants especially regarding who is actually speaking. Spatial teleconferencing introduces the concept of acoustic spatial separation between conference participants in three dimensional space. This has been shown to significantly improve comprehe...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

The recent trends like cloud computing, social, mobile and Internet of Things are forcing enterprises to modernize in order to compete in the competitive globalized markets. However, enterprises are approaching newer technologies with a more silo-ed way, gaining only sub optimal benefits. The Modern Enterprise model is presented as a newer way to think of enterprise IT, which takes a more holistic approach to embracing modern technologies.
