Dream Vacation Home
Short walk to the Playa Negra hotel to eat, and also highly recommend 1/4 mile drive to Villa DeVeena for dinner.
Playa Negra over New Years 2011
the villa was exactly as advertised, modern style with tasteful furnishings and amenities.
this was not your typical vacation spot, highly recommend for an adventurous family who enjoys the tranquility of ocean surf at night, unspoiled surroundings, and finer things.
Awesome home for family in Playa Negra
The home itself was large and modern with a nice garage, home gym and great room overlooking the pool. The town of PN is also very charming with many french proprietors operating cafes and restaurants.
The best part of this house however are the caretakers. Al and his girlfriend are in a guest house on the property and are very helpful with everything from showing the ins and outs of the house to suggesting spots in and around town for entertainment and eating.
Thanks again for sharing this great house!
Playa Negra at it's best.Playa Negra at it's best.
Highly recommended.

"Monkeys and birds visit the house virtually every day, but the foot traffic on the beach in front of the house is minimal--a few local fishermen, a couple of surfers or maybe some horseback riders. Yet we have a fantastic French restaurant right nearby and a couple of wonderful oceanfront bars and eating spots."

Craig Borth, 15, seems like the kind of kid who makes mothers proud. He's looking for a summer job, and he's willing to work anywhere that he can pedal.
Craig, a sophomore at Newport Harbor High School, even has experience. The week he turned 14 he started hosting at a restaurant. That was great until May, when the place closed. Since then he just hasn't had much luck.
He's not alone. The teen unemployment rate in California is 26 percent – double the rate for adults and the highest since employment statistics have been kept.
No wonder. In June, about 952,000 people in California were out of work. Many of those are adults, who are scavenging jobs teenagers used to get.
When it comes to jobs, teens are near the bottom of the food chain. They're living off crumbs.
Youth unemployment doesn't get as much coverage as adult unemployment, but it still matters – at least as much as Lindsay Lohan.
When he worked Craig bought himself a bike, but he also gave money to his mom. Many teens work to meet school expenses or to support themselves.
For the experience alone, work is an important rite of passage.
"Those first jobs teach you that strong work ethic that you need," explains Kathy Du Vernet, executive director of Youth Employment Service (YES) of the Harbor Area, Inc.
The private, nonprofit United Way agency in Costa Mesa has been helping youth get jobs since 1970. Three-quarters of the people they work with are low income.
It's a hard job; I'm glad somebody is doing it. YES applies a coat of polish to kids whose skills have rough edges.
That's especially important today.
"The competition is so much stiffer," Du Vernet says. "Who is going to hire a teenager when they can hire somebody with management experience?"
How do you get experience if nobody will hire you?

If you're a regular tuner-in to our Boob Tube Roundup, then you saw Laura Haddock quite topless yesterday in her role on the new Starz show, DaVinci's Demons. And if you didn't see it, then what the heck is wrong with you?
We're digging on Laura Haddock, if not before, then certainly now as her pimping and promotional tour takes a stop at Esquire magazine, which manages to make her look both super class and super hot. A pair of enticing legs does not hurt. Well, it hurts a little. While her last name might invoke images of fish and chips at a London area pub, keep staring at those legs and you'll soon be thinking cod. Enjoy.

We hope our new website will make it easier than ever to browse our adorable furbabies, learn more about our organization, find out how you can get involved, and of course, apply to foster or adopt. Our new website and logo were created by volunteers. For more information, please contact us. Thank you!
In the spring of 1997, we rescued our first "Furbaby" in Jacksonville, Florida. We were introduced to Annie, a blind, 8 year old Shih Tzu girl. Deemed "unadoptable," she was to be euthanized!! We were new, and knew very little about organized rescue, but we did know that we had to save this little one. We were given two weeks to find her a home and we did!! Her new mom had just lost a blind dog and knew that little Annie deserved the same opportunity to be safe and loved - and to live - as any sighted dog. We were hooked!
We established ourselves with shelters and veterinarians in Florida and Georgia, found a few wonderful families willing to care for (foster) the pups until they were ready for adoption, and became known as one of the few small dog rescue organizations willing to take the seniors, the special needs, the abused to the point of aggression, and the babies needing extreme medical care. Our volunteers worked closely with several shelters in the southeast. Our original plan was to rescue Shih Tzu and Tzu mixes, but when we walked through kill shelters on euthanasia day, we couldn't leave dogs behind because they weren't "our" breed. And so "Shih Tzu and Furbaby Rescue" was born.Read More
We are Lucy and Pooh Bear, an adorable loving bonded pair of 4 yr. old Chihuahuas. We are sister and brother, and our foster mom says we run the show! We love to sit on you, go outside for breaks, than cuddle more. Lucy likes to give kisses, and Pooh likes being nuzzled in your neck. We are low energy sweeties who can't wait to shower our new family with love and affection! Lucy and Pooh Bear are fostering in the Northeast.Read More
This is a police photo of 69 dogs living on feces smeared carpets, in stacked crates, amid hanging flypaper strips. When we were asked to help, we said 'yes' without hesitation; our volunteers stepped up, adopters were already in love, and supporters like you helped us with the funds we needed for transport, medical care, food, crates, collars, leashes, and more.
We continue to accept dogs who need us, often extreme cases, and have faith that our family of adopters, volunteers, and supporters will help us help them. From cardiac surgery for a tiny Maltese to 54 Shih Tzus from a closing puppy mill, we could not save them without your donations and your love.Read More
Ask our foster parents how it feels to save a life. Ask what it's like to take in a scared, confused, unwanted dog, and teach him or her about love, trust, and treats.
Fostering is an incredibly vital part of our rescue process. Foster parents provide each furbaby with a loving, safe, supportive environment, which for some, is the first they have ever experienced. For many furbabies, fostering is essential for helping them 'prepare' for adoption; it gives them the opportunity to work on socialization, leash walking, and learn what it's like to be part of a family. For the foster parent, we know that each furbaby is another life saved and another pup to spoil and snuggle and teach about love, stuffies, and soft beds.Read More

C.E.T. Chews Cat Poultry 30. Bag of 30 great tasting poultry-flavor z chews that are an effective way to help keep your cat's breath fresh and teeth clean.
The C.E.T. Dual-Enzyme System has a natural antiseptic plus an abrasive texture that works with your cat's chewing action to reduce plaque and loosen tartar. These enzymes enhance and augment a naturally-occurring oral defense mechanism, the Salivary Peroxidase System. The Salivary Peroxidase System is when enzymes combine with their substrates to produce hypothiocyanite ions, which fight plaque-forming bacteria and their harmful by-products.
Please note
: This product now comes in a zip-lock bag.
DIRECTIONS: Give your cat at least one treat daily, or as recommended by your veterinarian, to reduce plaque and calculus. This product is a supplement; these chews are not intended to be used as a sole food source. Not fit for human consumption.
INGREDIENTS: Freeze-dried fish, poultry digest, dextrose, antioxidants(containing tocopherols), ascorbic acid (natural flavor and citric acid), glucose oxidase
(Aspergillus niger)
, and dried whey protein supplement.

Rated 4 out of 5 by travelingdoc42 Not Our Best Visit, But Still Our Favorite London Hotel We have stayed here many times before and written reviews about several of the previous stays. This time I was tempted to down-rate stay to 3 stars, mostly because we had the most modest room that we have stayed in at this hotel (queen sized bed, at end of long hall, no view room barely fit bed, poor cooling controls etc.). However, considering we arrived at 11:30 AM and, as a Platinum, were offered a better room if we waited a few hours, I decided to stay with 4 stars. Also the bed was quite comfortable, I figured away to keep room adequately cool by opening enough windows and (most surprisingly!) my wife liked the nicely sized bathroom and was able to control lighting to her satisfaction (a rare combination indeed!). The breakfast buffet was very good and featured some great freshly baked muffins and even pancakes (from a strange little self-serve machine). I just hope next time they can offer us a better room when we arrive! May 12, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by JLondon London May 2014 London May 2014 Excellent location but old rooms still May 12, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by London123 Outdated rooms in desparate need of renovation Guestrooms need a total renovation (bedrooms have no outlets to plug in laptop or other devices; shower was dangerously narrow and hard to stand up in without falling; bathroom water fixtures were scalding hot and freeing cold to the touch for the respective "hot" and "cold" valves; bedroom decor was ancient - and not in a good way; lights were weak and hard to turn on / off; hallways were creaky and flooring felt like it might break apart at any moment) May 12, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Bunny123 Sheraton Park Lane This is one of the worst hotel experiences I have had in a while. What a dumpy hotel. The palm court is beautiful, but the room was horrible. It was like two different hotels. The bathroom needed renovation urgently - very cheap porcelain tiles, peeling linoleum around the sink, cheap paint job. The main room was really small. Really cheap hotel furniture with a 70s design the was unfitting for a supposedly luxury hotel in London. I had dinner at the Citrus restaurant and the service was unbelievably slow - incredibly annoying. I decided to stay more this year at Starwood hotels, but I am now having second thoughts after this experience. May 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Stanio Staff Staff very friendly and accommodating May 7, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by FrqTravel This hotel needs improvement This hotel is in a great location, however does not offer the amenities as expected. There is no coffee machine or iron in the rooms, and the staff does not respond timely. Outlets are minimal and at inconvenient places. Checkin times can go well past 3pm, we could not get a room until 6pm. The rooms need major upgrading as the thermostat would not work properly and the room was extremely stuffy and hot. May 5, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Traveler589 This hotel seems a little tired could use some refurbishing. Room next to dumb waiter, so noisy. Shabby that there is no in room coffee maker. Don't advertise a room as having a fridge if it is jammed full of your sales items with no room for customer use. Very inconvenient entry with luggage when coming from the Tube. Large suitcases in revolving doors a pain. Room needed paint, curtains were rotting, carpet needed cleaning May 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chuck1959 We loved our stay! We new the Park Lane had a great location, but we have to say we were really pleased with the hotel itself. The room and bed were excellent/comfortable and the shower pressure unbelievable! The lounge spaces were excellent and the staff was always pleasant and helpful. Our daughter and granddaughter had a separate room and were equally pleased. We would recommend to anyone. April 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MRNICK As good as it gets! This is a spectacular hotel which successfully catches another time and space. I spend nearly 280 days every year in hotels and this one takes the cake. The people are wonderful and make me feel so very much at home each and every time that I visit. April 30, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by RceNag Fine room, great location, Would definitely return. Nice room, convenient location, beautiful lobby/bar/lounge. Stayed. 5nights. Did have to cal room service the first night to get te service for the next morning. Then 4 of the next mornings had to follow up to get the tea service refreshed. Didn't really detract from the overall experience, but was a. It disppointing that they didn't handle this detail. April 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Frranglaise A beautiful entrance off Piccadilly Having booked this through Last Minute as a secret hotel it was really excellent vaule for money. The room was not huge but just right for a single occupancy. I was surpried that there was not a "Welcome Tray" as standard but as soon as I asked one was brought at once. The staff are excellent, will definitely stay again. April 26, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Brryman Great Position Hotel well placed, staff are excellent, rooms a bit dated April 26, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by UpShiftDigital Rooms Badly Need Upgradde The hotel location is perfect. The public areas of this hotel are excellent - good service, both in Bracewells (for breakfast) and Palm Court (bar and dinner). Reception was helpful. Areas are nice and clean. Room is horrible. Outdated, nasty carpet I was afraid to walk on. Bathroom was also horrible. Shower leaked, tiny curtained area. At least the water was hot. Toilet had something in the tank so it wouldn't fill, which meant you had to flush it 3 times. Ancient air con unit sitting in the middle of the room. A full remodel of the sleeping rooms and I might consider it again because of the great location and public areas, but until that happens I won't be going near it. Not a Starwood quality property at the moment! April 26, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Eljorge Best avoided I would be happy with this hotel if it were a 2 or a three star hotel, but it is really subpart compared with other SPG and Sheraton hotels I've stayed with across the world. April 25, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by maliz the public area and reservation staff is lovely While the public areas and staff are lovely the rooms badly need renovation. My room was not what I expected from a 4 star Starwood hotel. It was small, and furniture was old and needed coordination (made more traditional) and replacement. tne conceirge was not available on Easter sunday. The replacement was not knowledgeable on monday morning we were mysteriously awakened by our television going on at 5:30 am. It destroyed our sleep at an unreasonable hour your final question asked if i would recommend this hotel. i would only with an explanation. April 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Marc71 Great London Hotel The hotel is in a great location and has nice services and rooms. It is clean, some of the rooms are large, especially for London standards. The food is quite good and the staff is really great. The showers are small but I believe that is standard for London. I recommend this hotel. April 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by marion2 Our Experience At first we were given a room which was dark and dreary which was very small and only a double bed and the only way to watch television was from the bed and we were totally disgusted so we complained and then they gave us a new room which was pleasant and comfortable for two with a couch to watch T.V. from. But I could not believe they gave us that horrible room in the first place. It would only be suited for a single business person staying for one night and not planning to spend any time in the room at all. We were staying 3 nights. April 22, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by georgelouismckenna Beautiful but traped in 1990 I have to say that the hotel has an amazing location and the building inside is stunning. I have to say that i fail to see where the 5* status comes from.The staff were not helpful at all, they seemed more involved in talking between each other than attending the desk. The room its self had an Air-con unit that sounded like the Dartford tunnel in rush hour and without it on the room was stuffy and hot. the cleaning service was hilarious, instead of changing the sheets, they flipped them over and plumped the pillows 5* service indeed. April 22, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by frankie99 mr ag knowles a good hotel one of this standered falls a little bit short in that the guest most inform the hotel to put tea makeing in the room April 21, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Betty1233 Dissapointment Dark rooms with dated furniture and carpets. Dripping faucets in the bathroom, lights not working properly, refrigerator not working at all. Staff looks tired and doesn't offer assistance promptly. April 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Visit207 Comfort, style, proximity, elegance, home from home. This is our 4th stay and we consider it home This hotel has wonderful accommodation, friendly staff, authentic architcture and surroundings. It is 2 minutes away from Market square, 10 minutes from the tube, 15 minutes from the theaters. It overlooks a beautiful park, is moments away from the Palace. It is spectacular. My wife and I love it and consider it home from home. We are Westin owners and feel our stay at the hotel give greater flexibly, more luxury and freedom than if we owned a flat and had all of the encumbent responsibilities. We love this hotel and it never lets us down April 16, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Roadwarrior71 The hotel needs updates The hotel needs major renovation. The carpet, upholstery, and furniture is musky and dusty. The bathroom has cracked sinks and the tub/shower is uneven. There is no way of controlling room temperatures except opening a window with no screens leading to bugs into the room. They will provide a fan upon request. Overall, think musky, dingy, dusty, and old. The hotel staff were not very friendly, helpful, or accommodating. I think it they know you are a captive audience and don't really try to go the extra mile. April 15, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Eortgr Needs to be closed for 2 years for complete rehab This hotel needs help on many levels. The rooms are terribly shabby and dated; bedrooms tend to noisy; the front desk staff are very nice but nonetheless are complacent about the hotel -- they think it's wonderful because it's heavily booked -- which in this case is a function of location, rather than of the hotel itself. The hot water, shower, and heating/cooling systems don't work well. Probably nothing wrong with the hotel that a complete two-year overhaul can't fix. BTW, the checkin lobby, concierge, and driveway are embarrassing as well. April 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by QueenBNW1 Perfect Location I've stayed here 10 times in the last year. Sure, the décor in the rooms is a little dated, but the staff is so nice and the location and price can't be beat. Most British hotels have teeny tiny rooms and even smaller bathrooms so you have to adjust expectations before coming here from the States. April 12, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Louis33 I stayed and did not complain Note that I did not approach the hotel staff to complain, and they were friendly enough, but I suspected that the rate I had booked was not one that the hotel was willing to upgrade. I was very surprised by the size and the quality of the room that I was given upon my arrival, and upon more closely reviewing my reservation details, I am even more disappointed. If I had not walked into the hotel myself, I would have thought that I was in a hostel, and not of a Sheraton. Perhaps the hotel was full, but as a platinum SPG member I expected more. April 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by busyissy Would return One night stay with my daughter. We were pleasantly surprised after reading reviews and would recommend to others. However make sure you make your requirements clear before check in as our needs could not be met. April 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by blahblahblah123 April Visit The hotel has a great location and on avaregare the room sizes are good. The air conditioning needs improvement as it does not work and th rooms can be stuffy. As I platinum member I do not find I get any extra eprks as I wait long for my room to be ready and my complimentary water is only replensihed if I ask. April 7, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Jimmyl Very Dated rooms that are well overdue an upgrade I booked for a King Bed room, but the first room I was assigned had two single beds bolted together, which does not make a king bed as there will always be a gap between them no matter what mattress protector you put on top. The adjoining bathroom was antiquated to say the least. A stand in bath shower with the shower fittings in the middle of the bath (no room to move with shower curtain on your back) and fittings unable to hold the shower head up when water coming through. The room smelt old and the carpet and furniture backed that up, just way too old and dated. With a portable AC unit with the hose out of the window that was too noisy to leave on overnight and was did not cool down the room sufficiently . I then "upgraded" to an Executive Room the only difference being a walk-in shower and proper king bed. Furniture and fittings were exactly the same. I frequently stay in this area of London, and can safely say I will not return to The Park Lane Hotel until I know a serious upgrade has happened. The value for money is just not there.

Originally written on MetsZilla | Last updated 11/14/14
Yesterda, Newsday reporter Marc Craig tweeted that New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson "doesn't think Dickey winning the Cy Young will significantly impact talks." Ken Rosenthal's article today for Fox Sports certainly seems to echo that sentiment as the team is reportedly preparing to offer Dickey a 2-year-extension: The New York Mets could be on the verge of a breakthrough in their negotiations with National League Cy Young Award winner R.A. Dickey. Or, maybe not. The Mets plan to offer Dickey a two-year contract extension, according to major-league sources. Whether Dickey would accept such a deal remains to be seen. Dickey, 38, is under contract next season for $5 million. He likely would want at least $20 million for two years, but his exact wishes are not known. The Mets have been talking with Dickey while also gauging his trade value with other clubs." Nothing concrete here, but the fact that the team is making an offer is evidence that their preference is to keep R.A. in a Mets uniform. Perhaps they've gauged his trade value, as Rosenthal suggests, and found it not to be their liking. In any case, this is a big first step in negotiations with a player that has said repeatedly he wishes to stay with the team and I think it will also play a role in showing a player like David Wright that it's not ALL about the future when it comes to this front office. This type of move shows, to some extent, that a real effort will be made to try and compete at a high level in the immediate seasons ahead.

I am just trying the 14 day free trial of the full MWB. Is it OK to run this alongside Kaspersky AV? Thanks.

Why bother? I run Kaspersky and the free version of Malwarebytes never finds anything. I cannot believe the the full version will find anything else. I don't know if the real time element of the pro version would conflict with Kaspersky or not.

I think you need the free version that is active only when scanning
It certainly works fine with my Kaspersky and did find a couple of things when I ran it for the first time
I'd be inclined not to run the active version at the same time as any virus scanner

I have run the free version of Malwarebytes for years and can't remember it finding anything, I don't know if that's because there's nothing to find or some other program has picked it up before.
I do roam around some dodgy sites sometimes so must have been at risk but never had anything show anywhere except cookies.

Does anyone know of a medical treatment to increase a low level of blood platelets?
There is nothing much to do about it, it's the bone marrow that counts in that case.
"The choice of treatment depends upon the severity of the platelet count, its cause and whether or not there is any bleeding. If life-threatening bleeding occurs, eg to the head or bowel, urgent treatment is needed with platelet concentrates via blood transfusion. ... If there is no major bleeding, treatment is aimed at the cause of the low platelet count." Potential treatments include antbiotics and the use of blood components to replace clotting factors and platelets. (Netdoctor.co.uk:
What is the normal blood platlet level for humans
I have been trying to find out also. I was wondering if coumadin would effect the platelets sense im on the medicine?

Shinto Shedcomments (5) August 12th, 2011 in Project Gallery
This storage shed is a 9' x 12' wood drying shed inspired (loosely) by Ise shrine in Japan. It was built with reclaimed materials - free jobsite salvage, trash, scrap, and reclaimed 6" x 16" old growth timbers salvaged from a remodel of the original Neustetter's Department Store in downtown Denver. The heart redwood siding was culled, de-nailed, ripped and rabbeted from semi-rotten 2 x 6 decking. The steel platform was salvaged from "big job" commercial foundation lagging. The joists are repurposed unistrut that were dragged out of jobsite rolloffs. New materials include some steel plate, most fasteners, and all glazing and corrugated galvanized roofing.
The large overhang was chosen in the early design phase to keep salvage construction materials out of the weather because, you know, one can't just take trash home from the jobsite and throw it away immediately. No, you have to season it for at least five years. ("Yeah, but honey, I'm going to build something with it someday!")

The prophetic novelist [1]
The prophetic novelist
The prophetic novelist
by Jason Cowley [2] Published
Anyone who is familiar with the fiction of Michel Houellebecq will surely not have been surprised by the terrorist outrage in Bali. Houellebecq is the ideal chronicler of our disturbed modernity, a raging, blackly comic writer whose stories and novels, written under the influence of Celine, are informed by an acute political sensibility. A former communist, he now believes that all progressive schemes to remake the world are destined to fail. The challenge, instead, in the affluent west, is to adjust to the conditions of boredom and nihilism created by the excesses of our consumer societies, as well to accept the dangers posed by religious extremism in the developing world.
Houellebecq's fiction is notable for its pessimism, its pornography and its prescience. His latest novel, Platform, ends, in an eerie echo of what happened in Bali, with a murderous assault by Islamic militants on a nightclub and leisure complex in south-east Asia. The complex, Eldorador Aphrodite, is frequented, as was the nightclub in Bali, by fun-seeking westerners. Many are killed in the attack, including the narrator's girlfriend, Valerie. As on Bali, sex tourism flourishes on Houellebecq's fictional island, with middle-aged Europeans travelling there in pursuit not only of sun, but also of easy sex and the promise too, perhaps, of a compliant little oriental wife.
Platform was published in France shortly before 11 September last year, but it was only recently translated into English, and published by Heinemann. At the time of its original publication, Houellebecq, in an interview for the magazine Lire, spoke of his huge contempt for Islam and for all other supernatural belief systems. His comments particularly inflamed Muslim clerics in Paris. Soon after the interview, Houellebecq was charged with inciting religious and racial hatred, for which he is now on trial in Paris. At the end of this month, we shall discover if the most daring and singular writer in Europe will be sent to prison, or, more probably, escape with a 45,000-euro fine.
Platform is certainly full of witty, unhinged attacks against Islam - characters are introduced for no other reason than to deliver page-length denunciations of true believers. But Muslims ought not to be unduly offended. Houellebecq is a writer of perpetual attack. Protestants, capitalists, liberal-leftists, the revolutionary generation of 1968, the French, les Anglo-Saxons, hippies, Frederick Forsyth - all these are among his targets.
There is considerable comedy in Houellebecq's wild misanthropy. There is also a peculiar poignancy. His narrators, often heavily drugged or drifting towards madness, are post-political last men, living in a condition of hopeless belatedness. They once believed in something, but now theirs is a generation for whom all illusions have passed. No moral code of restraint determines their lives. And so seeking release from the ennui and drift of their daily lives, often spent imprisoned in air-conditioned towers in choked cities, they are lured to the "orient" by the old-fashioned promise of licentiousness and abandon. But in seeking release from the self, they discover that there is no release: in our globalised world there are always unexpected consequences to be reckoned with - such as the violent return of the excluded and reviled.
Western individualism teaches us that we are free to remake ourselves however we choose, that we are masters of our own destiny. The modernist project taught us that individual consciousness is supreme: that it is not what we do, but what we think that makes us interesting. Houellebecq reminds us that such notions are simply not true. "When all's said and done, the idea of the uniqueness of the individual is nothing more than a pompous absurdity," one character reflects, before adding: "We remember our own lives . . . a little better than a novel we once read. That's about right: a little better, no more."
Reading Michel Houellebecq is a peculiarly enriching experience. It is hard to think of another contemporary writer who shares his moral vision, or conveys with quite the same sense of urgency what it feels like to be alive today in a world ruled by impersonal transnational corporations whose direct enemy is an opaque, impersonal, transnational terrorist network.

Customer Reviews of QIPC1009 Super Cool Spy Pen Shape Digital Video Camera with Pen Function - 8GB - Black
Item does not perform as stated.9/28/2010
This item is junk. Spend a little more at Brookstone and get an item that works. Buyer Beware.
Item is inferior and just plain does not work.9/28/2010
Directions are not in English so unit does not operate. Not a good buy so save your money and look elsewhere.
Not a good product9/13/2010
I bought two of these at the same time. The button on one of them didn't work. It's unusable. The other one works but it has issues. The recorded sound starts off good but then it starts making a noise that sounds like feedback and thats all you can hear. It comes and goes throughout the whole video. Its annoying. I thought it was picking up something so i've tried using it in plenty of other places. It still happens. The battery only lasts for around 30 minutes. The root directory isn't viewable in the memory so you can't change date and time easily. Somehow you have to flash it but it doesn't give you instructions on how to do that. It gives you a text file and says put it in the root directory, thats it. The only good thing about the spypen is that it does take really good, crisp clear video and it looks like a pen. Oh yeah, it writes too so i have two very expensive writing utensils now.2 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Totall NOT as described9/1/2010
Unit records for 43 minutes on a full charge, not 2 hours. Video Resolution is NOT 640x480, but is only 352x288 No JPEG 1280x1024 is available, as no still photo option is possible. NO Independent Voice Recording option is available. NO WEBCAM option is available. The Description is SO FAR OFF from what is advertised, STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT.
good product5/26/2010
For an 8 GB spy pen with 640x480 and 30fps you can't beat the price. I charged it fully and tested the video function. The battery lasted 1 hour and 48 minutes of straight recording time. That took up a little over 3GB worth of space. The only bad thing is that when you're walking you can hear a clicking noise (the on/off switch rattling) but it is not a problem when you are not moving around. The pen has blue and red indicator lights on the opposite side from the pocket clip (blue for photo mode, red for video mode, flashing red for recording). These lights are not visible when you have it in your pocket. The software works very well with Windows 7. Overall a good purchase for the price and is still working after a week.1 Helpful | 1 Not Helpful

Bob Dylan tour headed to San Diego
Mark Knopfler will be the opening act
Bob Dylan is 71, not 72, as originally indicated in this article.
Dylan went on to record three albums that reflected his new-found Christian faith: 1979's "Slow Train Coming"; 1980's "Saved"; and 1981's "Knocked Down Loaded."
Mark Knopfler, who will open the Oct. 24 concert here, played guitar on "Slow Train Coming." He also produced Dylan's 1983 album, "Infidels," which produced Dylan's epic "Blind Willie McTell," a song Dylan mysteriously yanked from the album before its release. "Blind Willie McTell" sat in the vaults for years until it finally appeared on Dylan's "The Bootleg Series Volumes 1-3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961-1991" collection in 1991.
Will Dylan and Knopfler perform together here on Oct. 24? Unlikely, since they didn't join forces when Knopfler opened for Dylan on a U.K. tour last year. Nevertheless, the significance of both of them sharing a San Diego stage -- albeit in succession, not concurrently -- is a tantalizing one for fans of both artists.
In the meanwhile, Dylan's new album -- "The Tempest" -- will be released Sept. 11 by Columbia Records. It comes out 50 years after his self-titled debut album was released by Columbia. Earlier this year, Dylan received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Barack Obama in a televised ceremony at the White House.

North Korea fires four short-range 'projectiles'; 2 fly more than 200km for 1st time
Published on Jul 30, 2014 9:04 PM
SEOUL (AFP) - North Korea fired four short-range projectiles towards the sea on Wednesday in the latest of a series of missile, rocket and artillery tests, the South's defence ministry said.
The latest launches began at 7.30am at a site near Mount Myohyang, north-east of Pyongyang, with two fired in the morning and another two in the afternoon, all towards the Sea of Japan (East Sea), the ministry said.
"The type of the projectiles is not known," a ministry spokesman told AFP. "The test of two projectiles launched in the morning appeared to be unsuccessful because they just flew for several seconds, while two other projectiles fired in the afternoon travelled for up to 210km," he said.
The last one fired at 6pm may have fallen in an inland area after flying about 130km, the spokesman said. The ministry declined to confirm a Yonhap news agency report that the North might have tested new 300mm multiple rocket launchers in an effort to increase their range. It was the first time such a projectile has travelled more than 200km, Yonhap said.

AMD Unveils Elite A-Series APUs With Enhanced Performance, Improved Efficiency 102
from the warning:-graphic-content dept.
That qualifies as one of those inventions that make you wonder why it had to be invented... The utility is quite obvious.
They are both essentially dynamic overclocking, and both rely on thermal data. I'd say they are more alike than dissimilar. I'm not saying it's a bad thing that AMD has done this, but I'd much rather see IPC improvements than brute force attempts to lower the existing performance gap between the two vendors.
Only in single-threaded tasks. You get into multi-threaded and AMD begins to win outright.
Likewise for our database clusters. We use open-source software (MongoDB, Redis, Riak) so hardware cost matters - if you use Oracle or something like that, software costs dominate. If you want large 4-socket servers, AMD offers much better value than Intel. And if you want lots of small 1S servers, AMD wins again, because the E3 Xeons only support 32GB RAM.
Kiss your keyboard goodbye!

2011 NFL Mock Draft, 2nd Edition
There has been a lot of talk over which quarterback in the 2011 NFL Draft will go first. Will it be Heisman Trophy winner Cameron Newton from Auburn, Blaine Gabbert from Missouri, Ryan Mallett from Arkansas, or Jack Locker from Washington? With a lot of teams in need of a franchise quarterback, there is a strong chance that all of these quarterbacks go early, but which do I think will go off first?

It will be one near-miss for man. But a new breed of space entrepreneurs hope it will presage one giant leap for mankind.
When Asteroid 2012-DA14 hurtles past Earth later this month in what counts as the closest of cosmic calls, US government scientists will be closely tracking its path from Nasa's observatory in the Californian desert.
Not least thanks to the attention of Hollywood, the world's interest in asteroid fly-bys has until now been focused on the danger of a cataclysmic collision.
But for aspiring asteroid miners, the lump of debris the size of a school gymnasium that will pass at 18,000mph within 17,200 miles - closer than many of the satellites circling the planet - symbolises a new commercial opening on the final frontier.
It may sound more like science fiction than imminent reality, but two US companies have been outlining plans to harvest asteroids for mineral wealth in what they hope will be a 21st century equivalent of gold and oil rushes.
They intend to deploy small satellites to prospect asteroids, then effectively lasso them, transporting them into Earth's orbit to harvest precious metals and liquids.
The newest entrant to the fast-developing asteroid mining world is Deep Space Industries, which has just unveiled ambitious plans to send prospecting spacecraft in two years' time and begin extraction by 2020.
"It is exciting to be present at the beginning of the second space age, led by commercial businesses," David Gump, Deep Space's chief executive, told The Sunday Telegraph.
"The biggest challenge for humanity expanding into space is the cost of launching material from the ground. If you can get the materials in space, that is a huge step towards expanding human civilisation beyond Earth."
His company is now a competitor to Planetary Resources, which launched last year with a roster of investors that includes Larry Page, the co-founder of Google, Eric Schmidt, Google's chairman, and James Cameron, the film director and deep-sea explorer.
Led by Eric Anderson, co-founder of Space Adventures, which took seven wealthy individuals to the International Space Station, Planetary Resources plans to use miniature spacecraft-telescopes to survey asteroids. It will launch them in partnership with Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic space tourism business.
Deep Space intends to rent space on larger satellites to launch three 55lb mini-satellites called Fireflies in 2015 on six-month missions to take photographs for the first close-up views of asteroids.
A year later, it would dispatch 70lb Dragonflies on return expeditions lasting two to four years to collect samples of material, identifying viable asteroids and bring them into Earth's orbit to start mining by 2020 using a third generation of spacecraft, the Harvester.
The technology is in the early days for this most challenging stage, Mr Gump said. Deep Space expects to use a large satellite to drag an asteroid out of its orbit around the sun, and into the Earth's orbit. The target asteroids would be small, maybe just 15-20ft across, but if correctly identified should contain hundreds of tons of material. Extraction would focus initially on liquids that can be turned into fuel to extend the life of commercial satellites.
The companies are cagey about costs, but Deep Space is courting investors for the Fireflies phase, which it estimates will require $20 million.
Some sceptics, however, view their proposals as out-of-this-world in all respects, given current space capabilities.
"Either or both companies could fall quickly, but success is a long-term proposition," Jeff Foust, editor of Space Review, noted. "Turning asteroid mining from science fiction into reality is something that will take years to develop. The bubble could pop quickly, but the boom will take place in slow motion."

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
The cabin has 50 feet of waterfront with a southern exposure. The water is clean and clear and very gradually deepens creating a perfect swimming area for children. The cabin has a dock and deck area at the water. A canoe, small sailboat and paddle boat are included with the rental. A pontoon boat is available to rent. The 1,100 square foot cabin has two bedrooms with double beds and two sets of bunk beds on the enclosed back porch. There is an enclosed front porch as well which affords a wonderful view of the lake. There is one bathroom with a shower, a fully equipped kitchen and a combined dining area/living room with a beautiful stone fireplace. The landlords are next door to the property.
Golf and Groceries: There are several golf courses all within a half hour of the cabin. The cabin is located off US10 between Farwell and Evart. We are about 10 minutes away from Farwell and 15 away from Evart where major grocery shopping can be done. Clare is just 20 minutes away for additional shopping and a movie theater.
We first vacationed at the cottage in the summer of 2005 and loved it so much we returned again in the summer of 2006. The lake is wonderful. The beach at the cottage is sandy and drops gradually. When I think of the vacations at thecottage I think RELAXING. Our kids ages 12 & 14 also loved it. We hope to return regularly.
After much searching on the cottage websites, I finally stumbled onto this rustic cabin on Eight Point Lake. It fit all of my criteria- Dog friendly, sandy waterfront, satellite tv.and internet (I have 2 teenage boys). What really attracted me was the photos. I wanted a real cozy cottage atmosphere. Well, the cottage was everything that we had hoped for and more! It was clean and so adorable (great decor)! We also rented the pontoon boat for the week so my husband and boys tried their hand at fishing. The owners live next door and Kay was really helpful with providing whatever we needed, including ideas for things to do and places to visit in the area. The water was clear of weeds and great for swimming (a must-have for us). We had a great time just relaxing and hanging out on the dock. This cottage stay was a positive experience for my family of 5 and we would visit again.
Thanks so much to Kay and Dave for providing such a relaxing venue to enjoy our summer vacation. The cottage was clean and well stocked with all the necessities for our stay. We highly recommend spending the extra money to rent the pontoon......helped to give a wonderful prospective to one of Michigans beautiful in-land lakes! Thanks again, from Kyle, Kerri, and Lauren.
Our family had a great time at this cute cottage on Eight Point Lake. It was a clean and well maintained property right on the lake! We enjoyed daily trips on the pontoon boat which we rented for an additional fee. The owners we friendly and available to us throughout our stay. Lots of fun!
Really enjoyed our stay at eight point lake.....the cabin was clean and well maintained, Kay and Dave were fantastic hosts. We took advantage of the pontoon for great fishing, swimming and late night cruises. Played golf at a great course a half hour away........plenty of stores and restaurants nearby.........we would highly recommend this cabin and hope to come back next year........Denny and Kim Munger
My husband and I are both from Michigan and over 20 years we've gone north with our family for cottage vacations. This vacation, on Eight Point Lake was by far the best. The beach is sandy and clean. The cottage was a perfect size; built from a Sears & Roebuck kit in the '40's. My tall husband and son did have to duck at a couple room entrances!
The large table in front of the porch was perfect; an oak tree provided shade all day. The grill and portable fire pit were great for evening meals and somemores. We rented the pontoon boat too and enjoyed trips around the lake, stopping at the sand bar and swimming in foot deep warm water. We also used the canoe and bikes...a great ride around the lake.
Even though the cottages are close together noise was never an issue. The fully stocked kitchen is indeed fully stocked...appliances and spices. The wifi was spotty...but we were on vacation and being un-wired is a welcome change.
We cooked most of the time but enjoyed Big Al's, nearby and Smokey Bones in Evert, plus Buccilli's Pizza in Farwell. They have an all you can eat pizza and salad bar; the waitress asked what kind of pizzas we wanted and stocked the buffet with them.
The renters are gracious, friendly folks...we had relatives w/kids visit for a day and they want to return themselves.
Again, we loved our week on Eight Point Lake, and would recommend this cottage and the lake, esp to those with families looking for a relaxed time by pure Michigan water.
Eight Point Lake is a beautiful 400 acre all sports lake in central Michigan, easily accessed off US-10, 20 miles west of Clare. This is a well kept secret and although the lake is large enough to sail and use a power boat, there is not a lot of traffic on it, so it's relatively quiet and serene even on the weekends.
The DNR stocks the lake so here is good fishing, in fact many people fish very close to our dock so they must know something!
On the north shore we enjoy breezes almost every day and have the sun for the best part of the day.

Now, I'm still a newb at this haircare thing, so bear with me...
Until last year, I used to wash my EVERY DAY. Ridiculous right? I couldn't help it because my hair was always ridiculously flat and oily and I had no idea what to do.
I FINALLY discovered this thing called dry shampoo, which you can spray onto your roots and voila , you're good to go.
So I tried Pssst because it worked wonders on me! From then on, I washed my hair every TWO days, whooaa there...
The reason why I didn't take it to the 3rd day is that the dry shampoo would get chunky (looking like dandruff) and and my hair got greasy at the end of the day. Plus, I had to spray A LOT.
I looked up what could possibly be a better dry shampoo, and Batiste showed up! I experimented on my 3rd day hair and heard the angels sing... My hair smelled goood (in my taste) and my hair was voluptuous!
I'm overly excited about this and told some girls who are amazed that my 3rd day hair looks freshly washed. And it lasts a long time! Sometimes, I actually feel bad about washing my hair!
I spritz a few times on parts of my hair because the spray gets intense. What I love about this too is that the powder is so fine, so when I brush the dry shampoo, it's gone!
Now I just wish I could buy it from Boots, since it's only around $4, but sadly, I live in the US and have to wait for sales and coupons...

I have dark brown hair. ALL dry shampoos leave a weird gray/white tint to my hair and white specks which end up looking like dandruff. Even the original and scented Batiste. I did try the brunette Batiste and it works fantastic. There's still a slightly gray cast but not as bad at the others. Also you're going to want to be careful to not get this everywhere. It will leave a dark brown tint on your hands when you rub it in and sometimes I get it on my face. I can live with that though for what it does. I haven't found anything else that compares. This makes my greasy hair not look so bad and I get a ton of volume.
For blondes you can get the regular or scented. For brunettes or those with darker hair, there's the brunette for us, FINALLY!

Holy grail dry shampoo! Every other dry shampoo I've used left a horrible, greasy texture to my already fine hair. I wash my hair every other day (it gets super oily quickly since it is so fine) and this really helps extend the life of it while leaving me with clean, voluminous hair! I will purchase this forever, and you can't beat the price!

Yay! A great cheapie dry shampoo! I was having a bad hair day at work ( late night before, no time to shampoo) so I ran across the street to the drug store. i grabbed the "Wild" can ( mainly because of the leopard print ;) and ran back to my office. Using this at first go on my dark hair was a little un-nerving as it left white powder. Get your fingers in there and its blended in within seconds.
A little backcombing and wala! i have Victorias Secret model hair .. well maybe a just a little.
Bottom line, great for a freshen up in a pinch.

I hate this product. I was looking for a dry shampoo as I only wash my hair once a week because I dont like to heat style my hair too often to maintain its health and usually its still fresh and straight but by the 4th day it starts getting oily.I wanted something to refresh my hair inbetween my weekly washes and this just sucks. the scent is nice but thats about it.when I applied it there was a bit of white residue and it had a wierd texture but a few days later I broke out in horrible itchy spots all over my neck and shoulders (thank god not my face!) I had spent a lot of money getting teatment from my doc who said it was an allergy to a new hair product that I've used.this really surprised me as I don't have sensitive skin and nothing like this has happened to me before. if I could I would give this 0 stars.

Uhmmmm...what am I doing wrong because this is not working?? I tried it many times before writting this review. I used it for 2nd day hair and for 3rd hair (very greasy). I watched videos and tried applying the pwoder in many ways and it still didn't work. It makes my hair hard sticky!!? I had high hopes because I have oily hair and I didn't want to wash my hair every 2 days. Not working. Not repurchasing.

This is my favourite dry shampoo that I've tried. My hair is very fine and long so it gets oily and weighed down after a day or less. This shampoo does the trick as far as making it smell and look fresh.

This product is AMAZING. I've tried just about every dry shampoo out there, and this is by far the best. I gave up a while ago on dry shampoo, as I loved the concept and was very determined to find one that worked, but after a certain amount of money and after every one being a failure, I lost hope. This is not sticky, is very fresh smelling, and literally blasts grease and oil away. I was shocked after the first spray ! After using this I honestly feel like I've washed my hair. I have long, slightly on the thicker side, dark brown hair. My hair is almost black, and this product never leaves a white color behind from the powder. As long as you rub it in really good with your fingers and then brush it out properly and thoroughly, there should be no white left over on your roots. This is the only dry shampoo I will ever use ! Holy Grail product hands down ! I was blown away. Ignore every other dry shampoo out there, save your money, and go buy this. You will not regret it !

In this paper, a novel public digital color image watermark algorithm, by taking a color image as watermark, is put forward, by which the hidden layer carries much more information than it does by words or characters. The algorithm is based on principal component analysis of generalized Hebb adaptive algorithm in artificial neural network and to do adaptive quantitative coding for principal component coefficients according to the proportion of marginal or textural information of the watermark image. In addition, it adaptively adjusts the embedding depth according to the images features to ensure the invisibility of the watermark. By way of disparting and stochastic embedding into color image watermark, it increases the embedding robusticity of watermark. By utilizing block-concerned technique, it realizes public watermark image algorithm. It respectively applies in face-identifying watermark with abundant marginal information and figureprint watermark with rich textural information, and gains fine feedback.

As you may have heard, we have been spending the past few weeks exploring the neighborhood of Little Tokyo for the latest installment of our Departures project. We are starting to uncover the many layers of this fascinating community, from the last remaining fish cake factory in the neighborhood to a new wave of filmmakers housed inside a historic church.
What we've discovered is that Little Tokyo is sort of a small town in itself -- everyone knows each other, and many depend on each other for services and support. We've been fortunate enough to be able to work with many community members and leaders; here's a look at some of what we've uncovered:

McConnell Hammered For Ethanol Subsidies
In a press conference featuring several prominent Senate Democrats, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., was urged to end tax breaks for ethanol subsidies as part of the debt ceiling negotiations.
Earlier this month, McConnell was among many Republican lawmakers who voted to end the ethanol credits but the measure failed. Hammering the commonwealth's senior Senator stances has been a strategy for Democrats in the midst of the debate about the nation's credit, but it's unclear if the ethanol vote will make in headway.
