marina suggestions in Fl or Ga
Here is the situation:
Will be wintering on my sailboat in the bahamas/caribbean/Fl
Live in another state and at least for the time being plan on keeping the house.
Plan on keeping the boat on the hard during the season im at home.
Where the boat is kept is non-issue really as far as liking the area since i dont plan on staying in the area when i am on the boat.
So if not an actual marina suggestion maybe area suggestions?
Cost? Marinas that would allow me to do work on the boat while its on the hard? Friendly area? Friendly staff at a marina?
I realize or at least figure lot of people pick a marina close to home....this is what i have for my other sailboat.....but since this one will be away from home i have different priorities obviously.
Maybe you wouldnt even do as i have in mind and would keep the boat on one of the islands.. Thought about this but seems it would be added damage posibility in hurricane season.
Maybe youd pick something completely different?
Any ideas and suggestions would be appreciated..

Our Summer Music Camp registration is now closed. If you are interested in putting your child's name on a waiting list please contact Dr. Betty Bedsole (731) 661-5226, or through email at firstname.lastname@example.com
The Department of Music and the Community Music Center at Union University are excited to announce their annual Summer Music Camp, July 6–10, 2015. Now in its seventh year, the camp for students having completed first through eighth grades provides performance opportunities with expert clinicians, exposure to a wide variety of musical experiences, and a week of fun with friends.
Students in Grades 1-5 and 6-8 will sing in choirs directed by Dr. Betty Bedsole and Dr. Chris Mathews, faculty of the Department of Music at Union University. In addition, the younger students will have a myriad of musical experiences with xylophones, handbells, piano, movement (grades 1–2), recorder (grades 3–5), world drumming, and beginning strings. Older students will be able to choose between handbells, piano, and guitar classes and will also enjoy music technology seminars.
As our annual highlight, all students will hear live performances daily by guest recitalists.
The success of the camp is founded on the excellence of the teaching faculty and staff, all who are well respected and highly trained in the field of education, particularly music education, and all who graciously volunteer their time. For this reason, it is our privilege to be able to offer a camp of exceptional quality at a very reasonable cost. We anticipate openings will fill quickly, so register soon!

Bibliography: Wilson, R. (2014). Don't Touch. New York: HarperCollins Publishers. ISBN: 9780062220936 (hc) 9780062220950 (eb)
Plot Summary: At the same time that Caddie is starting at a new performing arts high school, her parents are getting a divorce and her dad moves out. Caddie decides that her dad will return as long as she doesn't let anyone touch her skin, a task made more difficult by being cast as Ophelia in the school's version of Hamlet where she has to touch and be touched. Every day brings new challenges to avoid contact, but what she passes off as artistic quirks, her friends begin to realize may be a cry for help.
Thoughts: There has been a lot of discussion recently about needing more diverse books for children and teens. While not perhaps what one typically thinks of when talking about diversity, I think that for teens struggling with mental illness seeing themselves in a book like this, one that shows both personal struggle and strength, a book like this is a necessity. Perhaps even more so for teens who are not experiencing mental illness to help them understand what some of their peers are dealing with. This is a searing portrait of what it is like to live with OCD and anxiety. I ached with Caddie and for Caddie and I felt the truth of my own feelings and experiences.
Review Excerpts:
"This novel offers a good look at Obesseive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and other anxiety disorders…"–School Library Journal
"In this absorbing debut, Wilson resists turning Caddie's story into a lesson about seeking help for mental illness, instead sensitively and vividly introducing a character whose obsessive-compulsive disorder is distinct to her personality, yet relatable. Readers will wince along with Caddie as she navigates perceived threats in her world, eventually gaining a sense of internal power and solace."–Publisher's Weekly
"The well-written, first-person narrative vividly portrays Caddie's struggle with obsessive compulsive disorder. Teens will care about Caddie and salute her friends' supportiveness, even as the others struggle to figure out what is wrong."–VOYA
"Caddie narrates in the present tense, immersing readers in her claustrophobic anxieties. Her story effectively highlights how anxiety disorders and the stigma of mental illness affect teens, and the author offers advice and resources for help in her author's note. An insightful look at anxiety disorders and letting go of fear."–Kirkus Reviews

Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Ltd. ( RDY ) recently announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of its bioequivalent generic version of Celgene Corporation's ( CELG ) Vidaza. The generic will be launched soon.
Vidaza is approved for the treatment of patients with some of the French-American-British myelodysplastic syndrome subtypes: refractory anemia or refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts, refractory anemia with excess blasts, refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation, and chronic myelomonocyticleukemia. According to IMS Health, Vidaza generated U.S. revenues of approximately $378.5 million MAT (moving annual total) in the 12 months ending Jul 2013.
Revenues at Dr. Reddy's Global Generics segment were up 15% to $368 million in the first quarter ended Jun 30, 2013. Strong sales in North America and emerging markets led to the growth at the Global Generics division. Generics revenues increased in North America (up 37%), Russia and other CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States) markets (up 8%), and the rest of the world, or RoW (up 12%).
Dr. Reddy's launched 23 new generic products, filed 12 registrations for new products and also filed 5 drug master files (DMFs) globally in the first quarter of 2014.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, Dr. Reddy's filed 2 abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) with the FDA. As of Jul 30, 2013, Dr. Reddy's had 64 ANDAs pending approval with the FDA, of which 38 are Para IV filings and 8 are first-to-file.
Dr. Reddy's carries a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell). Currently, Actavis, Inc. ( ACT ) and Akorn, Inc. ( AKRX ) appear to be well placed in the generic space with a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

The problem of decoding the input actions of a logical circuit with elements of vennjunction is solved. As the input action we will consider not individual suites of input signals, but instead sequences of such signals. These sequences are asynchronous in nature. A method of constructing a decoder based on a cascade connection of conjunctors is presented.

The ongoing 8th annual book fair is a one-stop shop for every reader's want
Inside the Tamukkam grounds the smell of newly printed books overwhelms you. The speaker blares out names of new-arrivals and titles by award-winning authors. Brightly lit stalls, piles of books stacked up or neatly arranged on shelves, sellers distributing discount coupons and pamphlets and book-lovers browsing through their favourite genres – the ongoing 8th edition of Annual Book Fair looks every bit like a carnival for bibliophiles.
This year, the fair is being visited by students, teachers, readers, families, women and children in large numbers – everyone on the lookout for their own soul-stirring piece of book! And most visitors to the fair return with loaded bags. And the ones who managed to strike a big deal can't hide a radiant glee. Amritha, a home-maker, bought a dozen books for Rs.1000, "This fair makes up for the lack of a decent book shop in the city. Now that I have got my stock for the year, I can happily wait for the next expo."
"Book expos are best places to buy assorted titles at competitive prices," says Ilavarasan, a collegian, who visits the fair every year with his friends. "We buy a variety of authors and exchange and borrow among ourselves." This year's edition is much bigger with over 200 stalls, a million titles and five million books! "But the journey to become the most popular book fair in the city wasn't easy," says A.R.Venkatachalam, Treasurer, The Booksellers' and Publishers' Association of South India. "We had a tough time in Madurai for the first six times, so much that at a point, we thought we wouldn't continue. But last year's success gave us a boost. And currently, we are crossing 20,000 footfalls a day."
Noting that Madurai is the only place where the fair is held other than Chennai, Suresh, who manages a stall at the fair, points out, "If the increasing response is any indication, then the reading habit of Madurai denizens has surely improved."
"Madurai readers are a composite lot. Most of them are serious readers," opines Sivan, a bookseller. "Tamil classical literary works like Kalki's Poniyin Selvan and Tirukkural treatise find more takers even today. No wonder, the city has been the cradle for Tamil literature." Almost every stall dealing with Tamil books, has stocked the classics. But modern Tamil literature, called 'Puthu Ilakkiyam' strikes a chord with young readers. Muthukumaravel, an agriculture student from Paramakudi, says, "I like communist and Periar's books and novels that talk about serious social issues." The novel, 'Yeriyum Panikaadukal' that was made into the film Paradesi, is a bestseller among the youth.
Authors like Jeyakanthan, Sujatha and Ramanichandran find fancy among more middle-aged men and women. Mother-daughter duo, Komala and Shivani who are regular buyers at the annual fair feel that a wide range of novels and genres are available at the expo, unlike the few varieties that lie unsold in bookshops. "Latest editions and new-arrivals are difficult to find in any city bookshop. Whereas, we get to know new authors and titles at an expo," says Komala.
Crime novels of Sujatha and Nanjil Nadan, Self-help books by Robin Sharma and Gopinath and biographies of leaders seem to be the hot picks this year. But some readers rue the lack of more English novels. Shravan, a Class X student, says, "I usually Flipkart my books. But the huge collection brought me here in the hope of getting some rare books. Yet, finding authors like Stephenie Meyer and Jeffrey Archer and even Indian English authors is a task. Most times, I don't find them at all."
If majority of the visitors are ardent readers and book lovers, some also come to the fair, just to immerse themselves in the feel of it. The pattimandrams on interesting literary topics and cultural shows of classical dance and music, folk art performances, conducted as part of the book fair, are huge crowd pullers. Apart from the enthusiastic readers inside the stalls, a dedicated audience always sits and enjoys the events outside. Ajay Rajan, a collge-goer, says, "I feel online book stores have better pricing. But as expos give that awesome feel of browsing and being surrounded by thousands of books, I never give this fair a miss. I also enjoy the debates and cultural programmes going on simultaneously."

2 men found guilty in UK black teen's murder
He said the verdict would not "ease the pain of losing a son, but ... I hope that it brings at least some comfort after their years of struggle."
Labour leader Ed Miliband said he believed the Lawrence case would leave a powerful legacy for Britain.
"The murder of Stephen Lawrence was not only a tragedy for a talented young man and his family, it was a wake-up call to all of us who believe Britain is - and always must be - a country where everyone is shown respect irrespective of race, culture or faith."
Dobson and Norris had both denied the charges. After the verdict, Dobson said as he was leaving the court: "You have condemned an innocent man here, I hope you can live with yourselves."

Matt James
Garden designer
In part three of Matt James' Garden design made easy series, follow Matt's design ideas to make the most of your outdoor space by using clever planting, focal features and the right balance of materials.
A small courtyard or patio garden may be no bigger than your sitting room, but this makes a successful garden project much more achievable. If you have a small space, it means you can spend extra time on what really counts – the finish and finer details.
Identify a theme
Exotic jungles, Mediterranean or oriental themes work better in courtyard and patio gardens more than anywhere else. Often they're not affected too much by their surroundings, so there's less of a need to consider how to blend your design into the neighbourhood beyond the boundary.
It can be a space where literally anything goes. However, don't forget the look of your property when you're putting together a courtyard or patio design. Consider its colour, the materials and the proportion of doors and windows. You can then use similar colours or sizes in your garden so that the two sit seamlessly together.
ABOVE: Create interest in a courtyard garden with several container plants – but choose small specimens to avoid dominating the space. Mini bay trees, bedding plants and herbs are ideal.
Consider the layout
Traditional courtyards usually have a simple – often symmetrical – layout with paved or tiled flooring. Attention is drawn inwards by either a water feature or a sculpture, which is usually placed in the centre or against the back boundary in the middle in order to keep this space as open as possible.
If you want more flexibility in how you use the space, keep the centre clear and plant borders around the edges. The patio dining set, sun loungers, toys, paddling pool or barbecue can all come and go as the mood and season takes you.
Walls and fences provide useful garden space, so think vertically with your design scheme. Fix vine eye screws and wire to a fence, or a trellis to a wall, for wall shrubs and climbers to grow up. You can mask ugly walls with cedar strips, ornate trellis or concrete render. If you choose to paint them, keep the colours light and subdued so that boundaries recede. Cobalt blue walls, for example, will make the space feel like a blue cell, so stay neutral.
Tall fencing, walls or dense planting can create cramped little corners in small courtyards, which aren't practical to use. However, if you subtly conceal parts of the garden so that you can't see the entire space all at once it can make it feel bigger than it actually is. A large potted bamboo or two, a freestanding trellis covered with sweet peas or tall planting with lacy perennials, such as Verbena bonariensis spilling from the flowerbeds, will help to achieve this without taking over your garden.
Changing the direction of the paving, introducing other surface materials or simply using different sizes of the same material – small porphyry cobble setts next to porphyry pavers, for example – can help to mark out one area with a particular function from another.
ABOVE: This space draws on Moroccan influences with African slate flooring, a pretty mosaic water feature and rustic-style furniture made from railway sleepers. (Image supplied by Earth Designs, earthdesigns.co.uk)
Choose the right materials
Less is definitely more in a courtyard garden – the worst designs that go over the top with different materials can look horribly chaotic. Use no more than three to four materials in combination: slate, brick and oak, for example, work well together.
If you live in a small Victorian terraced property, choose sympathetic materials that complement the period feel. Use dark grey cobble setts with brick-built houses and blue-black slate or grey sandstone to link perfectly with a slate roof.
Consider linking the flooring in the room that has access to the garden with the surface of the courtyard, whether it's by repeating the stone, tile or hardwood, or echoing the colours in the room. A seamless transition from indoors to outdoors is an easy way to make both spaces feel bigger. Decking is a useful material too. It's the perfect solution to cover a decrepit concrete surface that is either too difficult or too expensive to dig out.
Add a water feature
If you would like a pond with a fountain, don't buy one that's too big. The pond should be at least three times wider than the height of the fountain – then it won't empty when the wind picks up.
Wall fountains work well in very small spaces (try waterfeatures2u.com). Or, you can go for a water blade cascade feature. Build a rendered brickwork pool up from ground level that will act as the reservoir to hold and collect the water and install a pump so that the water is recycled. The top can then be clad with timber to double up as useful impromptu seating (try primrose.co.uk). Choose a feature that will look good even when it's not working.
If you want a contemporary feature, go for glass or steel 'walls', where the water shimmers down one side. Decent models start from around £200 – try ukwaterfeatures.com for ideas.
For hassle-free installation, buy a feature where the sump (water reservoir), pump and fittings are all included. Many kits also come with waterproof lighting, or add your own to transform your courtyard or patio.
Devise a planting scheme
If you want border planting rather than a potted plants scheme, you'll need to pare down your choices as the depth of borders can be narrow – choose plants that perform all year round or help to define space.
Plant up the boundaries first with climbers, then layer plants down in front of them, finishing with the smallest at the front. With space at a premium at the back, choose well-behaved wall shrubs instead of big, spreading shrubs. Good choices would be Ceanothus, Chaenomales and Garrya elliptica – the gorgeous silk tassel bush – pruned and trained tight to the boundary. For an oriental feel, try tidy clump-forming bamboos like Fargesia nitida and grasses like Miscanthus; both are tall but thin.
For the middle tier, plant smaller evergreens such as Christmas box, sage, Cistus, Pittosporum'Nanum' and the smaller deciduous Viburnums, depending on the aspect. Mix in stalwart perennials, like Japanese anemones, Geranium phaeum and ferns for shade, with asters, Echinacea, Linaria and Lysimachia for sunny aspects.
Plant the pockets in the front tier with ground cover perennials such as silver Stachys byzantina, Ajuga, catmint, ornamental dead nettles and low-growing thyme. Sprinkle a few bulbs throughout for added interest in this space.
Incorporate storage
Built-in seating can conceal cupboards underneath where you can store tools and cushions. A shed is harder to incorporate as you don't want it to dominate the space. Painting it an earthy green, fixing on some trellis and installing an eco-friendly 'green living' roof will make it feel part of the garden. If you have a Victorian outside WC, you can disguise it in the same way. If you can view the whole garden from your house, don't put a new orange-coloured shed against the wall opposite a window as your eye will be drawn to this rather than the rest of the garden.

Authorities take ILO help to spread awareness
Parents who send children to work to be denied benefits of State schemesILO recently approved a Rs. 3-cr. project for elimination of child labourNumber of child labourers put at 25,000
Hyderabad: School and education are farthest from her mind. Her immediate task is to scrub clean the utensils around her and get ready for the next chore. A picture of innocence that pulls at heart. Very soon the City will be awash with this moving poster of the cute little girl.
The district administration is taking the battle for elimination of child labour right into people's hearts. It is going to coax, plead and coerce them to stop robbing the kids of their childhood. And in this Herculean task, the authorities have the International Labour Organisation (ILO) on their side.
In a change of tact a carrot and stick policy will be adopted. Parents who let their children slog will forfeit benefits accruing from government schemes while those who withdraw the kids from workplace will enjoy them. "We will also put social pressure on families employing children to create awareness," said Hyderabad Collector Arvind Kumar.
The ILO has recently approved a Rs. 3-crore project for elimination of child labour. During the next three years focussed strategies will be implemented to root out the menace in its entirety. The authorities plan to focus on domestic child labour who are more often bonded child labour. Most of them are acquired from their parents for a pittance and made to slog. The situation of girls is more pathetic as they are often sexually abused by their employers.
Girls are also preferred as they toil for long hours, eat less and do all kinds of work, it is said.

Zahra Baker's obituary said she was a determined, outgoing child.
That spirit was reflected Thursday at the child's public memorial service in Hickory.
The service included a picture slideshow of Zahra in happier times: playing miniature golf, sticking out her tongue, hugging her father, riding on a motorcycle and playing with a snake.
Dozens attended Thursday's memorial service at Drum Funeral Home in Hickory. The number paled in comparison to the hundreds of people who participated in a candlelight vigil held in downtown Hickory on Nov. 16, what would have been Zahra's 11th birthday.
Capital defenders appointed to represent Zahra Baker's father and stepmother were removed from their positions Wednesday.
The North Carolina Capital Defender's Office in Raleigh confirmed the removal Thursday, saying the provisional counsel appointments weren't meant to be long term.
Lisa Dubs and Mark Killian, two Hickory attorneys were appointed to represent Elisa and Adam Baker, respectively, on what the Capital Defender's Office called "imminent" murder charges in Zahra's death.
Sheriff David Huffman can still catch criminals -- it just might take him a little longer than it used to.
But that's OK, Huffman said Thursday, because a new sheriff will soon be in town.
Huffman, 65, retires Friday after 28 years as the county's top law enforcement official.
"There comes a time in a person's life when you know it's time to step down," he said. "And this is the time."

Genome Sequence Scanning utilizes an automated system that extracts and analyzes microbial DNA from enriched food or clinical samples to confirm and characterize foodborne pathogens. The strain information provided is comparable to pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), the current gold standard for food pathogen typing in outbreak investigations. Yet, because GSS does not require a cultured isolate, it is compatible with sample preparation protocols that are often used with the newer, rapid detection methods that are increasingly in use in clinical and food safety testing laboratories. Its automated platform and simplified protocol require minimal training and ensure consistent, accurate results.
About PathoGenetix, Inc.
PathoGenetix, Inc., is a commercial-stage developer of a rapid, single-molecule analysis technology for bacterial strain typing and identification. Proprietary Genome Sequence Scanning™ (GSS™) is a breakthrough in microbial identification that works directly from complex samples and provides results in just four hours—days faster than current microbiological identification methods. The simplified protocol and automated platform require minimal training and ensure consistent results. PathoGenetix is currently developing a compact, benchtop GSS system for use in food safety testing and outbreak investigation, which will be available in 2013.

Wake Forest Demon Deacons
Florida State Seminoles
Both the Florida State Seminoles and the Wake Forest Demon Deacons are 2-1 this year, but no one is confusing the fact that these teams belong in the same breathe. The Deacons are clearly overmatched and have the NCAA football odds stacked against them.
There isn't much to complain about this year for HC Jim Grobe's offense. Pretty much everyone knew that this was going to be a work in progress a year after virtually the entire offense had to be rebuilt from scratch after having so many years together under the direction of QB Riley Skinner. QB Tanner Price, also a freshman, is going to follow in the footsteps of Skinner and try to lead this team for all four years in college. He has thrown for 270 yards and rushed for 138 more on the year, accounting for five TDs against two picks. The problem is that neither he nor backup QB Ted Stachitas has a clue how to throw the football. Neither is completing even 50 percent of their passes this year. Still, thanks to the fact that both QBs are very mobile and that RBs Josh Harris, Devin Brown, and Brandon Pendergrass have each accounted for at least 80 yards this season, Wake Forest is averaging a very healthy 430.7 yards and 43.7 points per game. When push comes to shove though, allowing 48 points to the Duke Blue Devils and 68 to the Stanford Cardinal in back to back weeks isn't a good sign going into Tallahassee this weekend.
The Noles are still a work in progress this year, but this is the first step towards this team's return to glory if it has one coming in 2010. The win over the BYU Cougars last week was a solid one, and it once again proved how dynamic this team can be. In spite of the fact that RB Jermaine Thomas and WR Taiwan Easterling were really nowhere in sight for the entire game, the garnet and gold rolled to an easy 34-10 victory. The 'D' kept the Cougs down, something that just didn't happen the previous week in Norman. FSU can still rest easily that it ranks in the top half of the country in every major defensive category, a tremendous improvement from last year's team which ranked in the bottom 25 in most categories. QB Christian Ponder badly needs a good game to get some confidence going into the ACC campaign. He has yet to really put a full four quarters together, as he was yanked after just a half of ball in a romp over Samford and was ineffective against Oklahoma. Last week, one of the best pro prospects in the land went 14-of-21 for 149 yards and a TD, but that didn't really show what he has the ability to do when he has a full game to work with.
We haven't seen the best from Florida State yet. We might have already seen the best out of Wake Forest. This was a team that was thrashed on the road last week at Stanford, and now coming to Tallahassee probably isn't what the doctor ordered. Don't think for one second that HC Jimbo Fisher isn't reminding his Seminoles that Wake has marched into Doak Campbell Stadium twice in the L/5 years and walked out victorious, 12-3 in 2008 and 30-0 in 2006. It's payback time for the garnet and gold.
Selection: Florida State Seminoles -18

'Panda-monium' breaks loose in Jurong mall
Published on Aug 24, 2014 8:20 PM
SINGAPORE - A flash mob wearing panda masks or dressed in panda suits descended on the Westgate shopping mall on Sunday in a panda parade to prod the public to preserve the environment.
The panda performance was organised by Wildlife Reserves Singapore's River Safari ahead of its birthday celebration for pandas Kai Kai and Jia Jia, and to mark their second year in Singapore.
Members of the public could also pledge actions to protect pandas, from conserving fuel by taking public transport, to avoiding products that endanger animals.
Shoppers at the mall were also given a chance to win tickets to the River Safari's Panda Party week from Sept 6 to 14.

Myrtle Beach HotelsGilded with miles of pristine beaches and home to more golf courses than you can swing a club at, Myrtle Beach is South Carolina's premier holiday haven. R&R comes sun-drenched beside the sparkling water; while livelier pursuits simmer all along the palm studded Grand Strand. From all the fun of the boardwalk, to fruity cocktail-fueled nightspots, attractions and amenities all aim to please. Locally caught seafood is the order of the day, and hospitality comes flavored with lovable Southern charm.Things to seeIf you're visiting Myrtle Beach you'll certainly want to stroll along the oceanfront Boardwalk. Stretching just over a mile, the palm-lined promenade buzzes with a carnival-like atmosphere, with jesting street performers and live music. With an array of shops, bars and eateries to entice you, the centerpiece of the breezy Boardwalk is the SkyWheel. At 187 feet high, the towering Ferris wheel delivers glittering views to the ocean, and bustling views of the city. For wholesome fun, the Family Kingdom Amusement Park is the quintessential seaside funfair. Here you'll find over 30 kid-friendly and white knuckle rides, while the sea air and smell of cotton candy will fill you with nostalgia. A lively waterside complex, Broadway at the Beach is a utopia of shopping, dining, and partying. Here you'll find the New Orleans-styled Celebrity Square pumping with nightclubs, along with Ripley's Aquarium. For fishing enthusiasts, cast a line off Cherry Grove Fishing Pier – a fruitful fishing spot.Hotels in Myrtle BeachAs you might expect from a holiday hotspot, hotels in Myrtle Beach are in healthy supply. From palm-laden beachfront digs, with pools and soothing sea views, to self contained condo resorts just moments from the sand, all tastes and budgets are covered along the Grand Strand. The luxury hotels in Myrtle Beach boast every amenity under the sun, with spas, gymnasiums, and ritzy onsite cocktail bars to name a few. Unlike other popular destinations, the mid and budget accommodation choices won't cost you an arm and a leg. From sprawling golf resorts to cheap and cheerful motels, thriftier stays are plentiful and well appointed, granting you all the mod-cons.Where to stayA hotel in Myrtle Beach itself puts you at the touristy epicenter of the Grand Strand. Here you can take it easy with a spot of sun worshipping or golf, while watersports, nightlife and an itinerary of lively attractions can take things up a notch. North Myrtle Beach moves at a quieter pace altogether. With a healthy share of the Strand's world class golf courses and other gentle pursuits, it's the perfect paradise for sheer, sunbaked R&R. With a golden reputation as 'The Family Beach', Surfside Beach is a community that offers something for every generation.How to get to Myrtle BeachMyrtle Beach International Airport is the main gateway into the sunny Grand Strand. Most visitors coming from afar however connect to it via larger airports, such as Atlanta International. Located just over three miles from the city, the best way to get from Myrtle Beach Airport to your hotel is via a pre-arranged private shuttle. Relatively cheap and convenient, door to door service from the airport to your hotel will take around 20 minutes or less. If you're staying further up in North Myrtle Beach however, you'll have to sit tight for just a little bit longer.

Tomorrow Night, A Fun Holiday for Jews
Merry Nittel Nacht!
Today, Slate discussed Nittel Nacht, the unofficial Jewish "holiday" that takes place on Christmas Eve. Jews celebrate Nittel Nacht, according to the article, by avoiding Torah study, lest the spiritual joy it produces rub off on nearby Christians. Instead, Jews play games like chess (or dreidel—some scholars believe Hanukkah's proximity to December 24th explains the spinning top's origins), pre-rip their weekly Shabbat toilet paper, or generally do anything other than study religious texts.
In this month's Text/Context—a joint production of The New York Jewish Week and Tablet Magazine parent Nextbook—Moshe Sokolow also offered the Nittel Nacht basics. He traces its origins to 200 C.E., when Jews were barred from trading with Gentiles on Gentile holidays for fear that commercial success would enhance their false celebration. So, instead, you play games:
It may be only a coincidence that card playing is first noted among Jews in 1415, around the time that Nittel is first mentioned, but, once introduced, card playing, like all games of chance, cast an addictive spell over European Jewry. Numerous communal attempts to ban the practice succeeded only in abating it, with exemptions formally granted on minor festive occasions including Rosh Chodesh (new moon), Chanukah, and Purim. It was also specifically sanctioned on Christmas.
So Jews have the Christians to thank for their love of gin and mah-jongg. Merry Christmas, indeed!

1997 Mazda Millenia Question: Car Vibrations
Hello my name is Keisha and I own a 1997 Mazda Millenia and my car vibrates vigorously when I accelerate pass 60mph but when I get up to 80mph, it stops. Also, there is vibration in the steering wheel as well. The vibration is very shaky and it seems like the car wants to fall apart. Also when braking, decelerating from like 80mph to 60mph or lower, the car kind of have a hard time slowing down with the vibrations. The vibrations are worst when braking. Please help!!! - kmhughes09
3 Answers
Answer 1
First thing is to have your tires rotated and balanced, Because a out of balance tire with vibrate at a certain MPH every time then have a shop check the brakes to see why its not slowing down properly and you can locate a shop here http://repairpal.com/directory?address=30248&car_brand_names=Mazda - Valleyautotech
Answer 2
He is right, also on mine, I had 2 bent rims. if they cant balance the wheels, check for warping of the rims - killavnyce
Answer 3
I had this problem on my Mazda Millenia. It ran perfectly fine until I reached 45mph. Then my steering wheel would shake violently. Believe it or not the problem turned out to be my front left caliper has seized up... Changed the caliper and now it runs like a champ!!! - Visitor

If you like the look of vintage craft ideas and projects, try your hand at the Aleene's Look of Embossing Snowflake Box from Tiffany Windsor. This seasonal craft can be displayed until spring. Best of all, you can create the look of embossing without the expensive supplies.
Trace a snowflake image directly onto a plain box and draw over the image with glue. Once the glue is dry, spray the entire surface with spray paint. For a distressed look, squeeze acrylic paint onto a wet wipe and cover the surface. Also, run craft chalk over the surface of the box. Cover the entire surface with an acrylic sealer and allow the entire piece to dry. You can use this box to decorate your space or give one to a friend as a Christmas gift.
For a step-by-step video tutorial of this project, check out Faux Embossed Snowflake Box.

Mazda3 is my pick. Great little car, awesome design, very fun to drive, the base version is quite economical (though isn't as fuel efficient as a Civic).

A volatile organic compound (VOC) meter or VOC analyzer is used to test air, soil, and water for contaminants. Volatile organic compound analyzers are used in industry to measure pollutants in wastewater and in the air in and around factories, in agriculture, and in clean water and sewage monitoring. VOC meters use either gas chromatography or a photoionization detector (PID) to analyze the samples. Gas chromatography utilizes the gas formed by the contaminants to create a spectrum that signifies what particles are in the sample. PID employs UV light to excite the volatile organic compounds, which then appear as an ion current, alerting the user to what contaminants are present.

About China SST
Goshen College began to send students to China in 1980. The SST program was one of the first North American study abroad programs in post-revolutionary China. SST has always been based in Sichuan province and is currently located in the city of Nanchong at China West Normal University. Students will live with hosts on or near this university campus.
During the first six weeks the days will be divided into language and cultural study. Students will spend several hours each day studying Mandarin and listening to lectures about Chinese history and culture. Students may have an opportunity to visit historical and cultural sites, such as the beautiful area in western Sichuan where one of the largest statues of Buddha can be seen and beautiful Mount Emei will be explored.
Students will leave Nanchong for smaller towns in western Sichuan province to assist with English classes in middle and high schools. All Chinese children must learn English and many are eager to hear a native English speaker.
At the end of the service portion of SST the group will leave Sichuan and travel north to Beijing. Along the way they will stop in the city of Xian and visit the site of the ancient Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses. They will travel by train from Xian to Beijing where they will visit the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Mao's tomb and other important sites. They will also have the opportunity to explore a portion of the Great Wall shortly before their return to Goshen.

The Great Wall wrapped up our group's time in China – students are scheduled to fly home to the U.S. on Tuesday, November 25. It's been a good semester with a great group of students. It's been delightful to see their leadership skills refined, their compassion and empathy grow, and their perspectives expanded.
We spent November 20 and 21 in Xi'an, today the capital of Shaanxi Province, but once the imperial center of all of China. The city, and its predecessors, served as the capital for the Qin, Han, and Tang dynasties. It was also the eastern source of the Silk Road that connected China and the Mediterranean world in trade for centuries.
We spend the final week of China SST traveling to visit a number of key cultural sites in the country that has been our home this semester.
