This review made me realize that the effort I put in to keep it clean and well supplied is well worth it. I love working with my guests. I try to treat them as I would want to be treated on my vacation!
About the Owner

Yes, it does meet the need for a variety of guests. The adventure seekers can try parasailing or, as you did, get a workout climbing to the top of the tallest lighthouse in Florida! See you next year.

Ponce Inlet Condo
We found it very clean and the furnishings were upbeat and comfortable. We loved falling to sleep to the sound of the waves.
The whole resort has underwent a major update and everything is nice. The pool area was on the beach side and you could watch the waves or swim in the heated pool.
There are numerous places within just a few miles to see.

From the Owner
"My cousin and I bought this property because I love the beach and it is close to Orlando where I now live."
Activity and Interests
Walk on the beach! Enjoy a beautiful sunrise!
Ponce Inlet Lighthouse - 175 feet of History - is just 3 miles from the condo. Fun for all the family. Take the challenge: Climb the 203 steps to the top of Florida's tallest lighthouse. Not up for the challenge? Discover the unique history of lighthouse illumination. See the original lamp, the housing for the lighthouse keepers, Florida Seminole Indian artifacts and other items. Visit the unique Lighthouse and Nautical Themed gift shop.
A Marine Museum is located by the lighthouse. Kids especially love it!
Prefer fishing? There's charter fishing, or just fish from the shore or at a nearby pier.
Do you like to shop? Try the Daytona Flea Market (largest in Florida).
You may enjoy a 'two hour tour' on a cruise boat. How about seeing the sites in Daytona Beach or play minature golf? The International Speedway offers interesting tours.
If you can tear yourself away from the beach, take a day trip to the Space Center just 60 min. south off I-95. Have kids? Take a day off from the beach to meet Mickey at Disney World. While you are in the area, enjoy Sea world and Aquatica, as well as Universal Studios. It's all only about 75 minutes away!

The Afghan war belongs to President Obama. He may not have broken it but by his rhetoric, his actions and his commitments, he now owns it.
The question for the president, politically and strategically, is whether we need to fight this war for our own nation's security. If we succeed in Afghanistan, will we merely push the battle lines into Pakistan? That would be even more threatening to our security.
"The situation in Afghanistan is akin to a multi-dimensional game of chess," said Mark Davidson, former member of the Clinton administration and a Navy Reserve captain. "No move, activity or effort is unrelated."
Obama faces deep political consequences, too, for the choices he makes regarding Afghanistan.
His worth as a progressive hawk is being tested: record-setting casualties, a sketchy Afghan election, an insurgency that never stops growing, murmurs that this a war that America and her NATO allies cannot win.
The problem with stability in Afghanistan is Afghanistan itself: Remote, mountainous and with very limited infrastructure, it has been inhabited since the dawn of time by diverse ethnic and tribal groups that still operate on a barter economy rooted in a feudal system.
Trying to separate the bad guys from the good guys there is like trying to figure out who's the hero in a Quentin Tarantino movie.
Afghanistan has been occupied by foreigners off and on for centuries, as far back as 350 B.C. by Alexander the Great, then by the Persians, the Huns, the British and the Soviets.
That brings us to the 1980s, when America ran a stealth war there against the Soviet Union; the U.S.-trained and -armed mujahideen begat al-Qaeda. America left the war we never officially participated in, but the bitterness towards that abandonment never abated.
The Bush administration did itself no favors by placing Afghanistan on the back-burner in the run-up to Iraq, which allowed the Taliban to reconstitute while we focused on another war.
NATO forces now are trying to carry out a counter-insurgency there, Davidson says: "They enter a region, clear it of insurgents and attempt to create an environment that is stable and secure for the local populace."
Afghanis want this, but they don't appreciate – and who would? – a foreign military presence. The problem in stabilizing the country, let alone winning the war, is that the central Afghan government apparently does not have the breadth or depth to handle what NATO forces deliver.
Due to the overwhelming enthusiasm of our readers it has become necessary to transfer our commenting system to a more scalable system in order handle the content.

Suspended TMC MP Kunal Ghosh has written a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi alleging political interference in the probe of the Saradha chit fund scam. Ghosh who is currently in jail facing charges of involvement in the scam, has alleged that a certain political party is trying to scuttle the probe. He has urged the Prime Minister to ensure that the CBI is given a free hand to get to the heart of the matter.
According to media reports, Kunal is not seeking any special privilege from the Prime Minister, but wants to ensure that the CBI probe in this widely reported case doesn't became a tool for political bargaining.
Earlier, the CBI and the Enforcement Directorate had alleged that certain sections within the West Bengal police were not coordinating with them to unearth the money trail in the Rs 10,000 crore scam and were meddling in the investigation of people close to Sudipto Sen, the discredited MD of Saradha group. In his letter, Ghosh has alleged that the state police has hatched a controversy against him and goes on to say that he has been charged with baseless accusations. According to the defamed journalist-turned-politician, the police is not trying to nab the people who actually benefited from the scam and virtually robbed many poor people of their meager savings.
Apart from crying hoarse in the letter about a "controversy", Ghosh has also tried to defend himself by saying that he was a professional journalist, who merely worked in the media outlets owned by Sudipto Sen. He says that he never issued a cheque or went to any meeting of the agents of the chit fund owned by Saradha group. Thus according to him, it is unfair to brand him as an accomplice in the Saradha chit fund scam.
The Saradha chit fund scam has been a thorn in the flesh for the TMC with the opposition including BJP alleging many top leaders of the party maintained close links with Sudipto Sen and helped him extend his business interest in the state. TMC in its part has vehemently rejected all the allegations. The case was initially probed by the state CID but after a Supreme Court verdict, the CBI has taken over.

Guy Fieri chatted with the ladies of The Talk about his distaste for using gloves in the kitchen.... a topic he evidently feels very strongly about.
"I understand what they're trying to do. They're trying to make safe food. People are worried bout food borne illness, they're worried about this cross-contamination that happens," he said. "I really can't say I'm down with it. I mean, I believe in the concept and I believe in the direction. But I don't believe we understand what the glove is gonna do. I think people think they put on the gloves and its like, 'I have magic gloves on, and no contamination will happen.' And then they're picking stuff up and doing stuff, you can't go wash your gloves. So what are people more likely to do? Wash their hands when they contaminate a hand, or change the glove? They're not gonna change the glove."

Much is being made of Dunn this week. We're debating his worth to the team, whether to trade him and how he ranks among the elite sluggers the past 4 seasons etc.
I thought I would cut up his 2008 numbers a bit more. From following the team this year, I felt like his production came disproportionately from the long ball (ie I remember the walk off homers but I can't remember him getting that single with a guy on second when we needed it). So I went to the stats.
Full disclosure: I'm in the "trade Dunn" camp. I don't think he's worth what he'll make next year, so I think you trade him and get a great prospect. (I hear we're asking for two. I'd take a major league ready one now.) I do believe he's a fine ballplayer. But this team shouldn't pay someone 15-20 percent of their payroll for homerun-only RBI production. And that is pretty much Dunn. At the end of the year, his stats are impressive. But they are almost exclusively from an event that happens 40 or so times out of 600 or so plate appearances, over the course of the season. Let's say he hits 45 dongs this year. That's 45 out of 600 PAs. Or 7.5 percent of the time he comes to the plate. To me, that just doesn't cut it for RBI production. I would expect the highest paid batter on the team to not rely on the longball to drive in runs.
But here are the stats. Interpret as you will. And I know you will.
409 plate apps - breakdown
- 79 hits
- 76 walks
- 105 strikeouts
- 5 sacrifice flies
79 hits - breakdown

RBI production via homerun (51) breakdown
- drove in 18 with bases empty (in 249 PAs)
- drove in 6 with runner on first (in 53 PAs)
- drove in 4 with runner on second (in 28 PAs)

WASHINGTON and NEWARK, N.J., March 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Cathedral Healthcare System Inc. has agreed to pay the United States $5.3 million, plus interest, to settle allegations that it defrauded the federal Medicare program, the Justice Department announced today.
The settlement resolves allegations that the Newark, N.J.-based hospital system improperly increased charges to Medicare patients in order to obtain enhanced reimbursement from the federal health care program. In addition to its standard payment system, Medicare pays supplemental reimbursement to hospitals, called outlier payments, in cases where the cost of care is unusually high. Congress enacted the supplemental outlier payment system to ensure that hospitals have the incentive to treat inpatients whose care requires unusually high costs.
The government alleged that, between January 1998 and August 2003, Cathedral improperly inflated charges for inpatient and outpatient care to make these cases appear more costly than they actually were, and thereby obtained outlier payments from Medicare that it was not entitled to receive.
"Today's settlement shows how the Department of Justice is committed to rooting out practices where hospitals knowingly overcharge the federal Medicare program," said Jeffrey S. Bucholtz, Acting Assistant Attorney General of the Justice Department's Civil Division.
The civil settlement agreement resolves allegations against Cathedral that were filed in three separate federal lawsuits brought by "whistleblowers" under the federal False Claims Act. The False Claims Act permits private citizens to bring lawsuits on behalf of the United States.
Under the settlement, Peter Salvatori and Sara Iveson, the relators in the first of the three lawsuits, will receive $848,000.
"This settlement demonstrates this office's determination to ensure the
integrity of the Medicare system for the citizens of New Jersey," said

The licensing scam that this dev is using sucks... I couldn't play it on the bus ride that I bought it for because without wifi it just gives me a message saying that the game is invalid please purchase it from the google play store. That is whack......... The game is actually pretty great. You have to be super quick and things get tough after the first 10 levels or so....I like the music and pres

This game is one of those addictive games. You gotta keep testing yourself. I think it's a good game. Thank You. GREAT job.
(48 stars)
Since finding MIXT on my first Android, it has remained my favorite game app. Why? Probably because I have no eye ~ hand coordination and I used to believe that red yellow and green were the primary colors. MIXT helped me with both problems. I appreciate how they adapt the game for different size devices.

This is a dream game for me. I have ADHD, can't tolerate boredom / waiting in lines etc. This can be played for a few minutes paused and restarted. I love it. It is my new Tetris or quick games on the run .
(48 stars)
It's a very fast game later on, at first I thought impossible as you are flicking unusable colours up while mixing and sinking others. But the trick seems to be joining the unusable colours so that they're easier to flick up, then when you have a couple of very large brown balls joining them which buys you time as they eventually split into large primary colours which can be mixed a lot quicker th

My standby is the easyliner in LATTE - a pretty brownish-nude that evens out my naturally too-red lips. This liner looks great topped with a nude or even pink-gold gloss (like milani's summer baby). The tip does tend to break off but for the price (usually 2 for $3 at Walgreens) you can't beat this creamy versatile basic.

I bought the one that's called mahogany. It goes great with the lipstick that I wear. It also is very pigmented and goes smoothly. The cap also doesn't come off easily like others.

I have this in hot pepper and all I can say is ... No! No! No! Do not buy this. Although this classic style sharpenable pencil is cheap...you are wasting $2 ! I have used it 3 times followed by loose powder and then lipstick. Each time it has smeared on application and also throughout the day. I have it up for trade if anyone wants it I will throw it in with an actual good item as a bonus.

I am shocked at how much I love Jordana lip liner! I am a lip liner snob and have been known to pay up to 20 bucks for one liner. I have to have the liner match my lipstick almost exactly which can get expensive if you wear a variety of lipstick shades. I use the retractable liners and have 6 colors. The cashier at Walgreens told me to try them and I figured they are so cheap that it would not matter if they were awful. I am now sorry I ever paid so much for liners. I wear a very expensive primer, so I can't say if these would stay on without it, but the colors and texture are wonderful!

I can't tell the difference of sublines with Jordana lip pencil products really other than slight difference in color of packaging/color of the cap.
I have this in Cranberry Cocktail, it has a silver cap instead of the clear ones I've seen just to clarify... This is a deep vampy wine shade. The consistency is creamier than most lipliners but also keeps the color in place. I needed a liner that I could use for 1) lining my lips 2) using it as a red base. I like red lips.. bold, dark, and MATTE. It's always a problem finding a nice dark liner that does it's job without making my lips too dry or looking clown like. It's a basic pencil so sharpening is required but I like really defined lips... so I prefer these over retractables :)
For $2 I got something that did more than what I was looking for. I'd try other shades for this price. However due to the creamy consistency, think of these more like lipstick pencils... Bleeding might be a problem if you're going for a bold + glossy look.

I really don't like lipstick OR lipgloss, but I have a solution that's worked well for me over the years- if I find a lipliner I really like, I apply it over a lip balm, so it's not too sheer and not too opaque. I recently purchased the Jordana basic lipliners in both Petal and Spice and am absolutely blown away by the quality and beautiful colors of both of them. I'm a convert! I don't wear lipstick with lipliner (please, I'm 37, I don't want to look it), but I am very happy when I find a cheap lipliner that looks good over balm. The colors are gorgeous.I did try Natural, as well, but it looked muddy and, well, un-natural! I have fair skin, blue eyes, reddish-brown hair and yellow undertones. I hope these never disappear! (I bought mine at Walgreen's for about a buck apiece). FYI, my favorite balm is Palmer's Cocoa Butter Stick- I stock up in the winter and always hand them out to my chapped friends and family.

I recently decided that I needed to wear pinup girl red lipstick, but I wouldn't dare use it without a lipliner, so I grabbed Hot Pepper for less than $2. It's much creamier than I expected--enough so that I could wear this as a matte red color without the lipstick, almost. This is not the fun retractable kind, this is a good ol' pencil. The cap fits nice and tightly so no worries about tossing it into my purse and letting it fend for itself, and the color is very pigmented and easy to feather out on my lips. Good stuff!

I have the retractable liner in plush plum, and i lowe it. its not as matta s traditional lip liners are. I use it as more of a stain or as lipstick even. Its 2 for 3 for the retractables as well and the price is great. I like how its retractable, no sharpening!

On a general note, I love the jordana lip liners and pencils, especially when I want to try new colors (I just tried several dark, dark reds on my fair skin and loved several). We don't have a Walgreen's here, but they do sell this line at our DOLLAR STORES! Check them out -- $1 is even cheaper than $2! I normally buy expensive makeup (when it's worth it), so it is great to have a source for lip (and eye) color that is CHEAPER THAN DIRT.

I bought three lip pencils (Nude, Cabernet, and Toast) and will probably not be going back to Jordana...
Because while the colors themselves are pretty nice (Nude-Dark nude color, Cabernet- a wine-red color, and Toast- a slightly darker brown "Nude" color), they began to bleed while I used clear lipgloss over them!
I was shocked to say the least. I had only used the Jordana brand clear lip gloss and it didn't last for longer than an hour.
After using the Cabernet with the clear gloss, it began to slide off and make my mouth look like I had been punch in the mouth, it made it look raw.
Really was expecting more from Jordana after reading all of the reviews.

I love these! They're easy to make and always go quickly! I use the round/circle pretzels...the kiss fits right inside of it. Use parchment paper to prevent the chocolate from sticking to the cookie sheet. I also use a variety of kisses..hugs...caramel..etc. This year, I used the chesecake flavored and the hot cocoa flavored. When using "filled" kisses, don't press the decorations down as hard.

Dining Onboard
On another forum, some questions on sailing food were posed:
Do you cook when you sail? What's your favorite food when sailing?
Most of the replies were so far to the other end of the spectrum from our usual onboard dining; I cannot imagine eating onboard like most of the posters seem to.
I posted the following reply on that forum, and I thought there might be some interest here on Sailnet:
Our sailing food tends to be the same as our food ashore. With two fridges and two freezers, and with more storage than we can use, we can easily stock what we want. As an illustration, the following are a few clips from our blog posts:
On Day Nine of our passage from Acapulco to the Galapagos
: "... While we enjoyed another wonderful breakfast of toasted bagels with cream cheese, capers and smoked wild BC salmon and mugs of fresh coffee, I ran the generator and watermaker to bring the house battery back to 95% and the water tanks to full...."
On Day Seven of our passage from Acapulco to the Galapagos
: "... A spectacular red sunset served as the backdrop for our dinner of giant scallops sauteed in butter with portobellos, shallots and garlic, served with steamed basmati rice, garnished with Roma tomato slices with basil and accompanied by plates of steamed asparagus with mayonnaise..."
On Day Six of our passage from Acapulco to the Galapagos
: "... we enjoyed breakfast in the cockpit. Edi had made some fruit compote by using a hand blender to macerate dried apricots and dried cranberries into nice thick pastes. This went wonderfully with cream cheese on our toasted bagels and baguettes. The compotes were simple and delicious, and without all the added sugar and whatever else found is in commercial preserves, I am sure much better for us..."
On Day Five of our passage from Acapulco to the Galapagos
: "... For dinner I made a double batch, one half to enjoy hot and the remainder to put in a Lock-and-Lock and in the fridge as a cold pasta salad for Thursday evening. I toasted some sesame seeds in the wok as I cleaned and chopped vegetables, then setting them aside I wokked two large diced garlic cloves, diced fresh ginger and sliced white mushrooms in vegetable oil with a dash of sesame oil, and then added white onions, broccoli stems and carrots. Then after I had added rotini to a pot of boiling water, I added to the wok some diced ham steak, chopped broccoli florets, poblanos, red peppers and tomatillos, and when this was nicely heated through, I added a few dashes of light soy sauce, a few splashes of water and a shake or two of rice flour to make a nice sauce, to which I added a big dab of oyster-flavour sauce. I turned off the heat under the wok, added the hot, drained pasta, the toasted sesame seeds and a couple of diced Roma tomatoes and tossed..."
Of course, we do not drink alcoholic beverages while at sea. At anchor; however, unless there are adverse tidal or weather conditions, wine is a central part of our dinner.
At anchor in Ipala, Mexico
: "... For dinner I sauteed basa fillets in butter with crimini mushrooms and garlic and served them with basmati rice and fine green beans almandine with a garnish of Roma tomatoes and basil. We continued our celebration of freedom with Champagne Veuve Clicquot."
At anchor off the beach in La Manzanilla, Mexico
: "... We relaxed for the rest of the day, and in the evening enjoyed a delicious dinner of large prawns quickly tossed in a butter saute of criminis, garlic, white onions, poblanos and red and yellow peppers, served with basmati rice and fine green beans almandine..."
In Las Hadas, Manzanilla, Mexico:
"... For dinner on Wednesday evening I sauteed the basa in butter with crimini mushrooms, shallots and garlic and added thin tomatillo slices as I cooked the second sides. This was served with basmati rice and asparagus with mayonnaise and accompanied by a wonderful 50 Peso Riesling Qualitatswein from the Rheinpfalz..."
At anchor in Caleta San Juanico, Baja, Mexico
: "... There were breaking waves along the beach as we approached it, so we cut short our explorations and headed back to Sequitur. Back onboard, we were nicely protected from both the waves and the winds by the rocky spires to our east. We spent the rest of the day relaxing in our snug little anchorage, and in the evening we enjoyed tarragon chicken breasts with steamed new potatoes and a julienne of fresh vegetables, accompanied by a 2006 Las Moras Cabernet Sauvignon / Shiraz from San Juan, Argentina."
Christmas dinner at anchor in El Metzeno, Baja Mexico
: "... Edi started another couple of loaves of bread; one a Friesen clove cheese and garlic with fresh basil, the other a sundried tomato, Moroccan olive and fresh basil, using the New York Times no-knead recipe introduced to us by Ray Lipovsky on one of Sequitur's visits to the Lasqueti Mint. This amazingly simple recipe, easily Googled on the net, is ideal for making wonderful artisan loaves at sea or at anchor. We relaxed, read and soaked-in the wonderful setting, and in the evening sat down to our Christmas dinner of turkey with a Portobello mushroom gravy, couscous and fresh asparagus with mayonnaise accompanied by a bottle of Segura Viudas Cava..."
These are just a few examples of what we call sailing food. There are many others sprinkled throughout our blog. Enjoy!
So, my reason for this post is to see how many others regularly enjoy dining onboard, rather than just simply eating, whether on passage, at anchor or alongside.

text: I bought and shot a box of Fuji 200 color print from Wal-Mart earlier this year. I bought it because I really needed it for an event the next day and didn't have time for shipping from B&H. It's good quality film, but I had Dwayne's process it because I don't want any doubts or second thoughts while I'm waiting to get the results back. You can tell from the colors and grain that it ain't Portra, but on the whole it's pretty good. Compared to Kodak and Fuji offerings of similar type at B&H the Walmart price was roughly twice as expensive. You might want to spend the card on groceries or something else where the prices really do beat the usual alternatives. My local Walmart has some decent beers now.

The "Color Post" plugin apparently just automatically sets a coordinating background for your post. I don't think there are any choices / settings. However it may be overridden or not implemented / implementable depending on your theme. IDK what adjusts there are if it doesn't activate.
Do you see a color background??

Spotted! Zoo's Newest Feline
By KATY JORDAN
Adoring fans at Stone Zoo New England were seeing spots yesterday when the zoo introduced its newest and smallest king cat, "Chessie" – a 10 1/2-week-old baby jaguar – for the first time to the public.
"She's a little bit shy," said Peter Costello, the Stoneham zoo's assistant curator and one of Chessie's caretakers.
"But she's coming out of her shell," said Costello of the 7- pound cub.
Chessie, who was born to mom jaguar "Kanga" and pop "Pacal," is part of the Jaguar Species Survival Plan, a national inter-zoo program devoted to the survival of the speckled cats.
"She's going to take after her mother," Costello said. "It's only the first day, and she's been all over the exhibit."

A fine impression, with rich burr throughout and delicate overall plate tone, on cream wove paper; full margins (5/8 to 3/4 inch), in excellent condition.
In the "L'Express de l"Ouest" of February 18, 1914, the critic Bernesto wrote: "Cette eau-forte est une des seules manifestations en cette exposition [the XXIII exposition des Amis des Arts] de la mentalite et de l'interpretation du mouvement artistique moderne."
Laboureur created a painting of the same subject, now at Nantes, and also a drawing on a fan of the same subject (which is less cubistic than the etching); he also created a sketchy "draft" of this etching which he apparently discarded after printing only 3 examples, and then created this print (in reverse of the first plate).

Event Name- OR - Select an option below
Located on the western edge of East Flatbush, Cathedral is one of the New York City's most approachable Haitian restaurants, showcasing a cuisine that mixes African, French, and other diverse elements. Grillot (pronounced "gree-oh") is a case in point: a dish of pork chunks marinated in shallots and sour orange, boiled, and then fried in the lard that remains after boiling. It's a French confit, par excellence. "Legumes"--the word simply means "vegetables" in French--is a stew featuring carrots, greens, and turnips cooked into a thick sauce, in which bits of lambi (conch) are mired. Lambi itself in a bright red fricassee is considered the Haitian national dish, served with rice and pureed black beans. Located in a neighborhood with many Caribbean groups represented, it's not surprising that a Jamaican dish or two often appears on the daily menu at Cathedral. The small bright space has only three tables for dining in, but you'll find a very friendly welcome. --Robert Sietsema

Fairy is weak to poison, Super Effective against Dragon?
Balor > Dragons.
Eye beams for the win.
There are already enough threads about this, please lock your topic when you can and post this information in a thread that has been active for longer, thank you.
Senator Armstrong for President 2016
If the Fairy type is true and the rumored type matchups are as Pokebeach says, then Fairy will have been added as an attempt to balance the existing type chart. Anyone who has a decent grasp of competitive play will tell you the following:
- Dragon-type moves (and by extension, Dragon-types) have become too strong in the last two generations.
- Fighting is an excellent, litte-drawback type that any Pokemon benefits from.
- Poison and Steel are terrible offensive types, even as STAB moves.
- Fire and Psychic are bad defensive types and tend to be a liability for the Pokemon.
Fairy helps patch these issues by being immune to Dragon and hitting them for super effective, giving Fighting an additional weakness, being weak to Poison and Steel making them better offensive types, and being resisted by Fire and Psychic to help them out a bit. The only one things that don't help in this way is Fairy's super effective on Dark, since Dark isn't so spectacular to begin with, and the fact that Ice doesn't have a resistance to it, which it desperately needs.
In the end, it matters less whether or not these type matchups make sense and more about a new type helping with balancing the type chart, like Dark and Steel back in Gen II. In fact, I'd wager that GameFreak decided on most of these type matchups before they actually named the type Fairy. In Gen II, GameFreak decided to have new types to nerf the then-overpowered Psychic types before they came up with names for those types, as Ken Sugimori said in Nintendo Power:
"Psychic Pokémon seemed to dominate in the previous Pokémon game, so we needed to come up with new Pokémon and types to make Gold and Silver more balanced."

I'd say the enchanted knight still counts as the fairy's power. it sure as hell wasn't Phillip who made his sword stab Maleficent in the heart, it was those Fairy jerks.
I seem to recall a few stories where fairies die if the forest they live in dies
as poison is strong against grass it would by extension harm fairies
Don't worry about it. I laugh automatically whenever I hold sharp objects. - Machi - Nagasarete Airantou
Well, I wouldn't say Game Freak is terribly skilled at balancing types.
Dark and Steel, both punish Psychic types. But I think that was overkill. Psychic is kind of subpar now. And in the same process, they made Fighting types almost overpowered, since both Dark and Steel are weak to Fighting.
pokemon =/= logic
MagikarpRules posted...
Well, I wouldn't say Game Freak is terribly skilled at balancing types.
I would wager that Dark and Steel were meant to nerf the Psychic type and buff the Fighting type, since the latter was so terrible in Gen I (mainly because of Psychic's dominance). Now that the type chart shows five super effective matchups for Fighting with no abiltiies or items to stop that type like Ground, GameFreak may have decided that a new type should be super effective against Fighting so that it's not such a boon to any Pokemon that has it.
GameFreak may not be the best at balance, but if these type matchups are true, then it shows that they're paying attention to what's going on in competitive matches. Given that they've been running monthly WiFi competitions and tracked ratings and usage statistics for those competitions on the Pokemon Global Link, this shouldn't come as the biggest surprise.

Hospital Management Course and Class Descriptions
Hospital management courses are typically part of advanced degree programs for people already working in health care or public policy. Sometimes courses are offered for professional development or for the purpose of updating certification. Read the course descriptions below and get some essential details for students hoping to gain positions in hospital management.
Essential Information
Managerial positions in hospitals require an advanced degree. For this reason, hospital management courses are generally taken at the master's or doctorate degree level. Usually, hospital management classes are part of programs in public health policy or public health management. Some colleges also offer non-credit courses designed for individuals working in hospitals at the management level who wish to update their certification or professional skills.
Students in hospital management courses explore public policy, community relations, human resource management, hospital finance, fundraising, physician relations and collective bargaining. Since hospital managers may be called on to provide emergency services during natural disasters, programs also introduce students to how to plan for emergencies and coordinate care in high-stress situations.
List of Hospital Management Courses
Hospital management courses are described in more detail below, keep reading.
Healthcare System Management
This advanced course for students of public health covers the major areas of operations, human resource management, community relations, capital finance, physician relations and collective bargaining. Coursework often includes an in-depth study of several hospitals to examine how they function. By the end of the class students have a comprehension of the main issues surrounding the management of a modern hospital in the U.S. and are able to apply these concepts to healthcare settings internationally.
Hospital Finance Management
This course, designed for graduate students of public health management, teaches modern managerial finance theories as applied to health services organizations. The curriculum is based on basic accounting and finance principles and seeks to convey an understanding of the major financial issues facing hospitals, such as reimbursement protocol, cost allocation, physician-hospital integration analysis and risk sharing.
Hospital Human Resources Management
Part of hospital management involves maintaining good relationships between management and labor. This hospital management course covers the basic components of collective bargaining, labor relations and labor law, focusing on the most effective practices for managing organizations, teams and individuals. Students in public health management classes learn about the dynamics of labor relations and organizational behavior theory as it applies to the performance and job satisfaction of people at various levels of an organization.
Hospital Emergency Planning
Hospitals play an obvious and necessary role during and immediately after disasters, terrorist attacks and other mass emergency situations. Preparing for such events involves coordinating a hospital's emergency response plan with that of the community. Topics in this class include identifying key personnel, locating additional resources to assist hospital emergency management and identifying financial aspects of emergency planning. Hospital administrators at all levels may take this course.

The other reason that Gaff rigs still persist has a lot to do with the idea of a boat as system. For the most part, it is very difficult if not imposible to design a true gaff rig or sprit rig that will point as high as as well designed Bermuda rig, which in part results from difficulty controlling twist and in part because gaff rigs usually end up with more drag and weight aloft for thier drive.
But many small boats have hull forms and foils that are not all that efficient in going to weather, so that a small loss of rig efficiency does not hurt the boat's windward efficiency since their ability to go to windward is limited by the hull as much as the rig.
What gaff rigs do well is provide a lot of power when reeching or running without producing as much heeling force. Since the vertical center of effort of a gaff rig is lower in height than an equal area Bermuda rig, the gaff rig can can carry a lot more sail area for a given amount of heeling moment. With modern gear, this can be a pretty efficient rig for inefficient hulls.
The most modern very high performance boats have square head mainsails which offer the best of both worlds. Because they use a cantilevered batten to create the square head they are able to control twist and yet the square head allows them to optimize drive to heeling forces.
This is nothing new. In the 19th century, voyaging and racing canoes used a batwing rig which was essentially a gunter rig with a mainsail with huge roach supported on long battens that improved twist control and reefing. This rig was reefable and often carried a small jib as well.
