I am running some sampling simulations from census data and I would like to sample in 2 stages.
- First I want to sample 25 households within each village.
- Second I want to sample 1 person from each household.
My data is in long format, with a village identifier, a household identifier, and a binary disease status (
0 = healthy,
1 = diseased). The following code runs a monte-carlo simulation to sample 25 individuals per village 3000 times and record the number of malaria-positive individuals sampled.
But, I would like to sample 1 individual from 25 sampled households from each village. I can't figure it out.
d = read.table("data.txt", sep=",", header=TRUE)
villages = split(d$malaria, d$villageid)
positives = vector("list", 3000)
for(i in 1:3000) {
sampled = lapply(villages, sample, 25)
positives[[i]] = lapply(sampled, sum)

Comments On May 19, 2015:Awesome chain, the only problem is removing and cleaning all the white wax used in packaging. Mechanicaly the chain rips, I used it on a 05 yz250f

Comments On May 11, 2015:I have purchased several of these chains and every time they perform well. The chain life is good with these chains and the price is good
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Apr 27, 2015:Maybe it's because I ride a 450 and ride alot and in the woods, but this chain sucks, it stretched out alot each ride, always had to tighten it and it only lasted about 4 weeks before it was stretched out way too much. Also it was barely lighter than the Primary Drive x ring chain that I went back to that last much much longer. Fast Vet A rider.

Comments On Mar 24, 2015:Chain is good qaulity. As expected from Renthal. Easy to work with, comes pre-lubed. Will buy again. Have about 12 hours on it, no wear as of yet to be seen. Have not had to adjust the chain other than the initial adjustment when I first put it on,

Comments On Mar 04, 2015:I run all Renthal chains and sprockets. Very minimal stretch, nice not to have to adjust in the middle of a ride. Always quality parts, awesome looks, and great durability over stock.

Comments On Jan 18, 2015:looks great! stretches quite a bit at first but last quite a while! probably 30-40 hrs worth of moto.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Dec 09, 2014:I was torn about whether to use the newest and fanciest sealed chains or not. I went old school with this chain cause the specs were so good. The thing just will not stretch even on my KTM 530EXC. I drag that heavy powerful bike through some nasty rocky single track and lots of wide open desert. I've never had to adjust the chain fr stretch. The finish is still purty even after giving it no proper maintenance. It cleans up... rolls free... does it's job !

Mom and dad brought Kent home in May of 1963.
Kent was a smiling and funny little kid who grew into a very funny and always smiling man.
Kent loved people; he loved being around them and he loved being the center of attention...no matter what it took. Kent loved to laugh. Everything was a joke with Kent whether you thought it was funny or not just didn't matter to Kent, as long as he'd get a laugh out of it.
Another of Kent's favorite activities was switching jobs. Kent worked for more companies and people than anyone else I've ever met.
BLACKFOOT — The question is, how many choruses of "I've been working on the railroad" have the men and women who make up the two tie gangs and one surface and lining gang presently working in Bingham County endured?
Between Pocatello and Idaho Falls, two Union Pacific tie gangs, number 62 and number 65, are working to replace ties on the railroad tracks. One Union Pacific surface and lining gang, number 82, works tampering the rails.
Forty-two people are in each tie gang; 30 people are in each surface and lining gang.
BLACKFOOT — Lightning sparked several fires throughout Southeast Idaho over the weekend, including two large fires near American Falls and Fort Hall.
The largest, the Garden Fire, burned 1,750 acres southeast of American Falls. The fire started approximately 3 a.m. Sunday and was caused by lightning, according to the Eastern Idaho Interagency Fire Center.
Kent G. Ogden, 48, of Glenns Ferry, died on Aug,19, 2011, at Pine, Idaho.
Arrangements are under the direction of Rost Funeral Home, McMurtrey Chapel in Mountain Home.
BLACKFOOT — Fifteen talented individuals performed on stage Saturday night at the Blackfoot Performing Arts Center, holding their own against the three professional broadway actors they trained with the previous day.
BAGHDAD— Members of Alpha Troop, 2nd Squadron, 116th Cavalry Regiment, are reflecting on their tour as they prepare to re-deploy back to their home state of Idaho in the fall. The unit has spent nine months providing security for two camps at Victory Base Complex in Baghdad as one of the force protection units under the 116th Cavalry Brigade, United States Division – Center, in support of Operation New Dawn.
SHELLEY — For fun, Ann Christensen from Shelley, and her trained cadaver dogs, Kessa, and Rocco, are working with the Idaho Chapter of the Oregon Trail Association to locate several suspected massacre sites along the Oregon Trial.
"Helping find historical graves is a wonderful break from what I normally use cadaver dogs for," Christensen said. "It was a blast."
To demonstrate the dogs' abilities to the large group accompanying them, the dogs were started a long way away from a few places graves have been identified.
IDAHO FALLS — The Blackfoot Bronco's weathered a physical start with the Skyline Grizzlies on Friday afternoon and the got a hat trick from Carlos Flores who scored three second half goals as the Broncos began their 2011 season with a 3-0 victory.
BLACKFOOT – How would you like to have a dish at Blackfoot's newest restaurant named after you? It could happen—all while helping a good cause.
Bingham County Relay for Life is just $2,000 short of reaching their goal, so they are asking community members to donate $10 by Aug. 31. In exchange, one name will be drawn and a new menu item will be named after them.
For the Morning News
BOISE — After their yearlong mobilization and deployment to Iraq in support of Operation New Dawn, the deployed members of the 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team (116th CBCT) are scheduled to return to the U.S. beginning late this month.
Deployed Army National Guardsmen of the 116th CBCT include about 2,700 citizen soldiers from Idaho, Montana and Oregon, with about 1,500 from Idaho, 600 from Montana and 600 from Oregon.

In a decision dated December 13, 2013 but only published recently, Germany's Federal Tax Court has suspended execution of a German corporate income tax assessment to the extent that it was levied on the basis of the application of the German interest deduction limitation rules.
The deductibility of interest expenses by businesses, in particular by corporations, is limited to 30 percent of German tax EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) under German tax laws. Certain exemptions may apply, one of them being that interest may be fully deductible if the aggregate interest expenses fall below €3 million per year. If interest expenses exceed such limit, then the interest expenses may only be fully deductible if the entity paying interest does not belong to a fully consolidated group or if certain equity ratios are met. (The two latter exceptions also entail further detailed requirements.)
In the case decided by the German Federal Tax Court, the relevant interest expenses exceeded the threshold. The corporation filing for suspension of execution of tax assessed belonged to a fully consolidated group and the relevant equity ratios were not met. Therefore, the German interest deduction limitation rules applied.
The German Federal Tax Court held in a summary judgment, however, that there was a high likelihood that the German interest deduction limitation rules were unconstitutional. In particular, it held that the ability-to-pay principle was violated. That principle must be implemented consistently in German tax law. Due to the limitation of the deductibility of interest payments, more than the net income may be subject to corporate income tax.
The court did not see any justification for this violation of the ability-to-pay principle. In particular, the limitation of the interest deduction may not be justified on grounds of compensation for a statutory reduction of the corporate tax rate or on the basis of collecting additional taxes. Also, anti-abuse considerations were not applicable because the rules apply to all kinds of financing situations.
Please note that the decision by the German Federal Tax Court is not a final decision of the case. The case is still to be finally decided by the German Federal Tax Court; the suspension of execution is a mere summary judgment. Please also note that the German Federal Tax Court may not finally decide on the constitutional law issues involved. It seems very likely that the German Federal Tax Court will refer the case to the German Federal Constitutional Court, which will have the final say.
To benefit from this decision and perhaps obtain a potential dismissal of the German interest deduction limitation rules, taxpayers subject to the German interest deduction limitation rules should do the following:

A coalition of residents has filed a lawsuit over a town-house development in Bloomingburg, N.Y., that it says has failed to meet the village's requirements. A performance bond was required for the project, but the coalition says the bond documents were never reviewed. Additionally, the coalition says it has been unable to verify that the bond is valid. A judge recently declined to issue a restraining order to stop the project, but the coalition is moving forward with its lawsuit.

Whoa! Is that some bodily odor that I'm smelling here?
Relax. While I agree with descriptions comparing it to burnt maple syrup or leftover curry I must point out that these negative reactions are likely to occur within the first 30 minutes after heavy applications or with the nose close to the skin. I say give it time, some breathing space and you might be surprised to see how this transforms into something that's comfortingly familiar yet at the same time disconcertingly different. On my skin after 2 hours, it turns into a lightly spiced lavender-vanilla accord reminiscent of Caron pour un Homme, albeit with a sheer veil of immortelle's maple syrupy presence.
I honestly did a 180 on this one. Depending on your experience and sensitivities, EAU NOIRE could either be a simple immortelle-inspired scent or a nuanced, intriguing piece from Kurkdjian. I'm inclined to think of the latter. It may be challenging to wear but for immortelle afficionados, it is a 'must-try'.

I am the mother of an eighteen-year old. My son used to have a lot of problems just like any other teenager and I had reached a stage where I used to wonder how I could change my son, And then I came to know about the YES plus course and I put him through it and there is a whole lot of changes in my son, a huge transformation. I see him doing yoga. And the reason why I am here standing in front of you is because of my son - I saw the transformation in him and I am here. Okay, I am hooked on to you now, thanks to my son. Now my point is there must be a lot of mothers like me suffering silently, trying to figure out what exactly they can do to change their children, because especially the way things are going on these days, so much money, pubs, whole lot of things happening. Why can't Art of Living reach out to schools? Talk about all that you have to offer, reach out to 16 year olds and 17 year olds. Please. Reach out with this course. I am sure a lot of people are going to change.
You know mothers like you can contribute. Mothers like you, few of you can join together. If you talk to principals in various schools, colleges, in your free time; take a little time and do this seva, do this service - that would be even better. Our approach, any way we are doing, it has its limitation. People think we have an ulterior motive. Oh, they want to increase their...whatever. They may need something for themselves that is why they are doing. They don't realize we are doing for the sake of the children and for the sake of our society. So we will do that, we are anyway doing. We have done here in Karnataka, all the second year engineering college students in Maanyavati college project, twenty two thousand of them. It was one of the best projects because the youth had such a transformation, just engineering college students. But they should do it for all the students in all the degree colleges, all levels, but for that you all have to write to the government, and the education department.

Cuts to federal pay may hurt public services, CBO warns supercommittee
A rare public hearing of the supercommittee suggests members aren't close to developing a plan to cut more than $1 trillion from the federal deficit over 10 years. Congressional Budget Office Director Doug Elmendorf warned them that cuts to discretionary funding, including feds' pay, would not solve the problem.

All buses will have to undergo quarterly safety inspections DTC told to set up mobile vehicle inspection and maintenance facility
NEW DELHI: In the wake of a CNG-run school bus catching fire here in the Capital last week, the Environment Pollution (Prevention and Control) Authority (EPCA) has cracked the whip on implementing agencies, bus manufacturers and operators and issued a set of directives that call for strict adherence to the rules.
Fool-proof system
The EPCA, the pollution-monitoring arm of the Supreme Court, said there had been lapses in implementation of the directives of the Authority.
"There is a need to make the system fool-proof and put in place a mechanism of checks and re-checks to ensure safety," said EPCA Chairperson Bhure Lal addressing a press conference here on Saturday.
"We are deeply disturbed as safety regulations are not being fully enforced," he added.
A team of EPCA experts examined the school bus that caught fire at Chirag Dilli on January 27 and found the 13-year-old converted bus had not met the mandatory quarterly inspection criterion.
To prevent such incidents from happening, the EPCA has instructed the Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) to set up by February 7 a mobile facility that will carry out on-road surprise safety inspection to check gas leakage and other parameters.
Annual fitness
In an effort to tighten surveillance and implementation of directives, apart from the annual fitness and third party inspection, all buses will have to undergo quarterly safety inspections at the any of the 20 safety centres -- five of which are at DTC depots and 15 at the workshops of manufacturers Tata Motors and Ashok Leyland.
The EPCA has directed all operators to register for quarterly inspection at the centres within 15 days and has asked the Transport Department to maintain a list of the registrations.
The Department has also been asked to take strict action, even impounding buses, to rein in the violators. The bus owners will also have to maintain a logbook with the details about periodic testing and repairs.
Automatic leak detectors
In a wake-up call to the Transport Department, the Authority has directed it to acquire the automatic leak detectors and voltage testing meters at its workshops at the earliest.
All buses would have to be inspected according to the approved checklist for safety tests.
The Department will also have to submit to the EPCA a list of the buses that are due for phase-out.

The park is located at 671 Branch St., Lumberton.Samantha Failen, who is Martin's sister, is organizing the event to help raise money to defray the medical expenses Martin has incurred. The walk will make two laps around the lake at the park and the starting and finishing lines are on the I-95 side of the park.Failen said her brother is planning to attend the event."Gene has been a firefighter and a rescue personnel member for 50 years," said Failen. "He's been diabetic since I was a teenager. He is not the type to let anything slow him down."Failen said while Martin no longer goes into burning buildings, he still goes on the fire calls.Martin is also a member of the Bladen County Honor Guard, Bladen County Firefighter's Association, and the N.C. Fallen Firefighter's Association. According to an Eventbrite website set up by Failen, Martin also served in the Army National Guard until his health forced him to resign.He has also served as a Sunday school superintendent at his church as well as serving as a disc jockey at 1440 The Branch radio station, which plays gospel music.Failen related that the family also lost a sister to kidney disease several years ago, thereby disqualifying her as a potential donor. She explained that with the prevalence of kidney disease in her family, the doctors indicated her own chances of developing kidney disease herself are strong."My way of trying to help my brother is putting this together," said Failen.She said initially, organizers were asking folks to sign up online at Facebook, but everyone is welcomed to attend.Failen said in addition to the Kidney Walk, there will be fun and activities at Luther Britt Park all day long. Beginning at noon, the Elder Rock Music Management group will provide entertainment with three artists — Avery Hunt, who performs country music and gospel; Backwoods Music Society, which plays a variety of rock-n-roll and blues; and Michael Daughtry, who plays a variety of music including his own original work.There will also be displays of fire trucks, Lumberton's crash truck and an ambulance will be on display. There will also be a smoke house for the children.Failen said she is planning a second Kidney Walk, this time in support of the National Kidney Foundation on March 28, 2015. She said there currently is no walk for the National Kidney Foundation in the local area and she wanted to establish one here.

Armani, Dior rack up fashion wins at Oscars
Hathaway, before the show, said her dress with a seemingly sweet vibe but with a strategically open back and sexy sides, was a last-minute choice. "It fit my mood and place where I'm at right now."
It almost seemed there were two routes to the red carpet, said Rubenstein: incredibly beaded and eye-catching, worn by Nicole Kidman in L'Wren Scott, Halle Berry in Versace, and Stacy Keibler in Naeem Khan; or a simple color with a great silhouette. He puts Lawrence, Reese Witherspoon in a strapless royal-blue Louis Vuitton gown with a black strip at the bustline and Jennifer Aniston in a Valentino red strapless gown in that camp.
"For some, there was a pull back to not do a lot, and that's where fashion is as well," Rubenstein said.
Amanda Seyfried's metallic halter dress by Alexander McQueen with a keyhole opening was three months in the making, and Berry said she trusted Donatella Versace to dress her like the Bond girl that she has been on the big screen. She ended up in a silver beaded-and-black gown with long sleeves and V-neck.
Jennifer Hudson's shiny, second-skin blue Roberto Cavalli almost looked like an animal print.
Kristen Stewart had an even paler blush gown; hers a hand-beaded strapless with tulle inserts by Reem Acra. She accentuated her gown with a 19th-century Fred Leighton necklace with 91 graduated diamonds.
Jennifer Garner chose a violet-colored Gucci with cascading ruffles in the back. Her 200-carat diamond-and-dark platinum necklace from the Neil Lane archives was a big statement.
Beaded gowns had a strong presence, worn by Sandra Bullock, in a fully embroidered Elie Saab; Renee Zellweger, in a sleek Carolina Herrera; and Adele in Jenny Packham. Catherine Zeta-Jones was statuesque in an all-gold Zuhair Muhad. Queen Latifah's white V-neck tank dress by Badgley Mischka had a lot of sparkle on the straps.
Salma Hayek's midnight-blue velvet Alexander McQueen gown had a gold embellished collar, and she carried a gold skull box clutch.
Helen Hunt wore a little bit of her conscience along with her blue column gown. It was from fast-fashion retailer H&M. She chose it because it was both accessible and because the company has launched a substantial green initiative. She did wear it, however, with hundreds of thousands of dollars of borrowed jewels.
For the men, the trend was beards, with George Clooney, Bradley Cooper, Ben Affleck and Tommy Lee Jones, among them.

Use this pretty peppermint bead charm to decorate a cell phone, other gadget or even a bag's zipper at Christmas. Add a little Christmas color anywhere that has a 2mm hole with this bead charm project from Rings & Things. For another great Christmas cell phone charm project, see the Snowflake Cell Charm. Also check out the Peppermint Bead Bracelet using the same beads.
- 3 28-333-60 15x25x8mm handmade lampwork glass mint
- candy beads, green/red/white (limited stock)
- 3 23-164-048 Glass "E" beads, crystal/silver-lined
- 1 30-480-1-05 Lariat cell-phone attachment, red/white plate
- 3 37-422-1 2" standard head pins, white
- 3 37-136-1 5mm round jump rings, white
- round-nose pliers
- chain-nose pliers
- cutters
- Add the beads to head pins; make simple loops and attach to a cell phone lariat finding using jump rings. When you open and close jump rings, twist sideways instead of "ovalling" them. This keeps their shape better, which makes them easier to close all the way.
- Attach charm to cell phone, iPod®, camera, or other items using a lark's head knot. To create a lark's-head knot: fold stringing material in half, bend the fold over the ring or opening you are attaching to, then thread both ends through the loop created at the fold.
TIP: Use a small bead to keep the lampwork bead from falling off the end of a head pin.

editors & contributors

The works of García Lorca, internationally recognized as Spain's most prominent lyric poet and dramatist of the twentieth century, are filled with thinly veiled homosexual motifs and themes.
There has always been homosexual involvement in American musical theatre and a homosexual sensibility even in straight musicals, and recently the Broadway musical has welcomed openly homosexual themes and situations.
Best known for his genius in art and architecture, Michelangelo was also an accomplished author of homoerotic poetry.
The African-American gay male literary tradition consists of a substantial body of texts and includes some of the most gifted writers of the twentieth century.
Combining elements of incongruity, theatricality, and exaggeration, camp is a form of humor that helps homosexuals cope with a hostile environment.
Langston Hughes, whose literary legacy is enormous and varied, was closeted, but homosexuality was an important influence on his literary imagination, and many of his poems may be read as gay texts.
James Baldwin, a pioneering figure in twentieth-century literature, wrote sustained and articulate challenges to American racism and mandatory heterosexuality.
Oscar Wilde is important both as an accomplished writer and as a symbolic figure who exemplified a way of being homosexual at a pivotal moment in the emergence of gay consciousness.
On September 26, 2011, the U.S. Senate confirmed Robert L. Pitman of Austin as U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Texas. Upon being sworn in on October 2, he became the first openly gay U.S. Attorney in Texas.
Pitman was nominated for the post by President Obama on the recommendation of Republican Senators Kay Bailey Hutchinson and John Cornyn. His appointment was opposed by social conservative groups in Texas.
A native of Fort Worth, Pitman attended Abilene Christian University and earned his law degree at the University of Texas, where he has served as an adjunct professor.
Since October 2003, Pitman has served as a federal magistrate judge for the U.S. District Court of Western Texas. He previously served as Chief Deputy U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Texas.
He is the fourth openly gay or lesbian U.S. Attorney appointed by President Obama.
The other three are Jenny Durkan of the Western District of Washington; Laura Duffy of the Southern District of California; and Anne Tompkins of the Western District of North Carolina.

Caroline Kennedy
Rare Images of the Kennedys and Radziwills Summering in Montauk
If you're not ready for today to be the first day of autumn, we've got quite the antidote: This Side of Paradise an exhibition of rare and personal images of the Kennedy and Radziwill families taken by filmmaker Jonas Mekas during the summers he spent with them in Montauk in the 1970s. This exhibit, which opens September 24 at the agnès b. Galerie Boutique, marks the first time these images are on view in New York City in their entirety. The photos were taken from the original 16mm film This Side of Paradise: Fragments of an Unfinished Biography, shot during the time Mekas spent with John Jr. and Caroline with their cousins Anthony and Tina Radziwill at a house that Lee Radziwill rented from Andy Warhol.
"The time was still very close to the untimely, tragic death of John F. Kennedy," Mekas wrote in his journal. "Jackie wanted to give something to her children to do, to help ease the transition of life without a father." Peter Beard suggested to Jackie Kennedy that Mekas, the founder of Anthology Film Archives, was the man to introduce her kids to cinema. She said yes. Mekas bought John Jr. and Caroline a 16mm camera, and wrote a "mini-textbook" with simple exercises. "And that's how it all began," he wrote. Click through for a slideshow of images on view at the exhibit, and take in a special screening of the film on October 13. … Read More

Tabloid Headlines: Nora Ephron Bitchslaps Erica Jong!
Like we said, "tabloid headlines," people. The actual, verbal smackdown wasn't quite so dramatic, but it did send a roll of chuckles/gasps through the auditorium at the 92nd Street Y, where folks gathered last night for a panel talk with HuffPo bloggers. The catfight in question ensued when an audience member broke the news (someone so didn't follow instructions to turn off all cellular devices) that Caroline Kennedy had removed herself from the New York Senate "race," and asked for reactions from the panelists.
Erica Jong — somewhat predictably — immediately rose to Kennedy's defense, asking us whether we could truly know how much she had sacrificed, raising a family under intense scrutiny and sheltering them, instead of perhaps, you know, forging a political career that might have prepared her for a seat in the Senate. After Jong howled that Kennedy naysayers were sexist, Ephron leaned into her mic to dryly reply (also: fairly predictably), "Oh come on. Not everything is sexist." Just as fur began to fly on stage, panelist Paul Rieckhoff — who happens to be the founder and head of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America — gamely swept in to redirect the conversation. Yes, it took a former Army lieutenant to end a spat between two 60-something women.
The discussion on whole was one big Obama love-fest, with Arianna Huffington and her fellow panelists extolling his virtues and their hopes to a huge room of Democrats. "Preaching to the choir," and all that, yes; but find a few other takeaway moments worth sharing after the jump. … Read More

Achilles Tendon Problems
What Happens
Achilles tendinopathy
Achilles tendinopathy starts with repeated small tears in the tendon. These tears may cause no obvious symptoms. Or they may cause mild to severe pain during movement. As the tearing continues, the leg may weaken and the tendon pain may become constant. Abnormal growths (nodules) may form in the tendon, and it may thicken.
Without rest and treatment of Achilles tendinopathy, you may develop long-lasting (chronic) pain.
Achilles tendon tear or rupture
An Achilles tendon can partially tear or completely tear (rupture) . A tear usually occurs in the tendon about 1.5 in. (3.8 cm) to 2.5 in. (6.4 cm) above where it attaches to the heel bone. Some doctors believe that this area is most likely to tear or rupture because of a limited blood supply.
If you don't treat an Achilles rupture, you will feel weakness in your first steps when you walk. It may feel like walking in the sand. Over time, walking will become difficult.
Other Achilles tendon problems
Other conditions can affect the Achilles tendon area. These other conditions are caused by inflammation. They include:
- Achilles paratenonitis. This is also called Achilles peritendinitis.
- Retrocalcaneal bursitis.
- Insertional Achilles tendinopathy.

Experience the Charm of the Eastern Shore (even in the winter)
Spring may be just a few short months away, but this time of year still has us firmly in winter's grip. If the colder temperatures and too many days of gray skies leave you feeling a bit stir-crazy, it's time to get out of the house and away from it all. Winter is an ideal time to relax, unwind, and explore the small towns in your back yard. The smaller crowds make everything from shopping and dining, to simply booking a room much more convenient, and discounted prices simply add to the appeal.
St. Michaels, Maryland is known for its historic charm. During your visit be sure to explore the local bistros, galleries, and antique shops along Main Street. Take time to stroll the brick-lined walkways and soak in the historic flavor of the colonial homes, stone churches, decorated storefronts, and the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum.
Harbourtowne's cozy accommodations offer a selection of standard rooms, point rooms, and our most exclusive suites. Our suites are well-appointed with a king bed in the bedroom, a separate sitting room, and include a fireplace. If you are looking for a more private and secluded setting, a point room may be a good fit. These cottage-style buildings are situated on a small peninsula on the outer edge of our property. Within all of our rooms you can unwind in the comfort of your room, indulge in the breathtaking waterfront view, curl up to a good book, or bask on a sunny balcony.
Tell your special someone it's time to pack a bag and plan a little stay, just the right amount of time, and a relatively short distance away, to feel like you've escaped the everyday.
Reasons to Travel in the Off-Season
Although we like to think we're a little different here, we know that sometimes traveling during the summer can be totally draining. When you add up the cost, the travel time, and the expense of activities, it can be a little too much. If you find summertime traveling to be overwhelming, don't worry! We are open year around and we can tell you that traveling on the off-season is not only relaxing, but very rewarding.
The holiday season can be a busy time of year with celebrations and family get togethers. This season, why not treat yourself to a little off-season getaway? We think this is the perfect time of year to travel and here is why:
1. Peace & Relaxation: While St. Michaels is primarily a summer town; we have a lot to offer in the off-season as well. Check out some of the town's holiday festivals and events, you might be surprised by all of the activities you might find.
2. Give your Wallet a Rest: One of the best things about traveling in the off –season is the great deals you can get. We offer great rates for both rooms and golf packages. If you're interesting in booking a getaway this winter, you can make a reservation online, or by calling us at 1-800-446-9066
3. Open Golf Course: Our award winning golf course, designed by golf course architect Pete Dye is open year round. So, even though it might be a little chilly, you can still get in a great day of golf without having to wait for the crowds. When you're done, you can head on into downtown St. Michael's for a hot drink and dinner.
4. Avoid the Traffic: We all know that traveling to and from the Eastern Shore during the summer can be a nightmare. With traffic backing up to the Bay Bridge, it can be daunting to make the trip out. However, traveling in the off-season is typically smooth sailing all the way out to St. Michael's.
If you are looking for a way to unwind after a busy holiday season, consider a trip out to Harbourtowne. With all of the benefits of traveling in the 0ff-season, how can you say no? For more information about what our resort has to offer, you can visit our website www.harbourtowne.com

A foghorn, most often used in foggy conditions, is a device that uses sound to warn vehicles of hazards. Generally the term is used in marine transport. When lighthouses are obscured the foghorn provides an audible warning of any dangers to ships. They have been used for hundreds of years with some of the initial ones being simple bells or gongs that were manually struck. Some lighthouses shot off cannons periodically in order to warn ships. Whistles were also used in the early days....

Hey Cal Fans!
This past weekend we played Oregon and Oregon State and won both! Each game went to five sets and both were very exciting. Due to our successes this weekend, we are now ranked #22 in the country and tied for fourth in the Pac-12! This weekend will be very important in maintaining or moving up in the rankings as we play USC on Friday and UCLA on Sunday.
After our long week in Washington, it was nice to be able to spend some time at home in Berkeley. On Tuesday, we had our annual band dinner and had a great time at the band house. The whole team made the trip up to the north side of campus and enjoyed an awesome evening filled with pie, conversation, and even a tour of the house. I loved learning about the band's traditions and daily activities and was especially surprised to find out how much time they all spent practicing and preparing for each performance. In addition to making new friends, it was great to be able to acknowledge their support at all our games, despite their busy schedules. As we all know, their presence makes a huge difference and is always much appreciated!
Go Bears!

Weakness in Asian Markets Cause US Stocks to Sell Off
(INDEXSP:.INX) futures traded down 11 points overnight due to
unease coming from China. Short-term interbank lending and money
market rates rose as the Chinese central bank declined to inject
cash into the system. In addition, the yuan rose against the dollar
to a 20-year high. The Chinese Shanghai Composite was down 1.25% in
overnight trade on fears that the government would tighten policy
in response to rapidly rising real estate prices.
The S&P 500 closed down 0.54% today and tech stock indices fared worse. Energy stocks were the worst performers in the S&P 500, consistent with the 2% sell-off in crude oil. Interest-rate sensitive utility and consumer staples stocks were the best performers. The FHFA said that August home prices rose 0.3% from the prior month, which was slower than the 0.8% economist estimate. Import prices fell 1.0% from a year ago, in line with economist estimates.
Carl Icahn announced last night that he sold 2.99 million of his shares in Netflix ( NFLX ) over the last two days, more than half of his holdings in the company. Icahn still holds 4.5% of the company's outstanding shares. Netflix rose 1.8% today after falling 17.5% from yesterday's opening trade.
Caterpillar ( CAT ) drastically missed earnings, citing a sharp slowdown in its mining equipment business, and guided down for the rest of the year. Caterpillar's sales fell 18% from a year ago, but forecast a pickup in US economic growth to 3% next year in the US. The stock fell 6.6% in today's trading.
Boeing's ( BA ) earnings were the opposite of Caterpillar's. The aircraft manufacturer reported solid earnings and raised its full-year earnings forecast on continued strong aircraft orders. The stock rose more than 5% to new all-time highs.
Tomorrow's Financial Outlook
Initial jobless claims will be reported tomorrow morning. Economists expect claims will fall to 340,000 from 358,000 last week. The 4-week moving average is currently 336,500. Additionally, the August release of the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) will be released in the late morning. Economists tend to look at this data closely for the true underlying health of the jobs market, though the report is much more delayed than the Labor Department's non-farm payrolls report.
A slew of manufacturing data is due out from across the globe before the US market opens tomorrow. China and the eurozone will release manufacturing and services purchasing managers indices.
Seventy major US companies are scheduled to report earnings tomorrow. Notable reports include Ford ( F ), 3M ( MMM ), Under Armour (UA), Dow Chemical (DOW), Altria (MO), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon.com (AMZN), Western Digital (WDC), and Dunkin Brands (DNKN).

I've been tossing around the idea of making a parody of the hilarious NFL Quarterbacks on Facebook for a while now and finally got around to it.

Bruins ice Rangers; Pens next
Boston Bruins coach Claude Julien decided not to give his goalie a pep talk after a pratfall in the crease handed the New York Rangers a goal that had the potential to turn around the Eastern Conference semifinal series.
Instead, Julien waited until after Tuukka Rask responded with 28 saves Saturday to help Boston beat New York 3-1 in Game 5 and advance to the East finals.
''That's what I told Tuukka at the end of the game, `You can start laughing now,' '' Julien said after the Bruins followed their seven-game series against Toronto by avoiding a nail-biter against the Rangers.
''We probably played with fire in the first round and almost got burnt,'' Julien said. ''We knew we couldn't let our guard down (against New York). Because if we did, they would come right back at us.''
Gregory Campbell scored twice and recent call-up Torey Krug scored his fourth goal of the series for Boston, which will meet Pittsburgh for the right to play for the Stanley Cup. The Bruins reached the third round of the NHL playoffs for the second time since 1992.
The other was 2011, when the Bruins won the sixth Stanley Cup in franchise history.
Tim Thomas was in goal then, and Rask's playoff memories aren't quite so fond. The 26-year-old Finn was the Bruins' starter when they blew a 3-0 lead in the 2010 East semifinals against Philadelphia, giving up a 3-0 lead in Game 7 as the Flyers advanced.
Boston was up 3-0 in the second-round series against New York this year, with a 2-0 lead in Game 4 when Rask tripped on a rut in the crease and flailed at a slow-moving puck as it rolled over the line. The Rangers went on to win 4-3 in overtime, forcing the series back to Boston for a fifth game.
''We wanted to make sure we ended this series — for all the right reasons,'' including rest for players who went to overtime in Game 7 against Toronto, Julien said. ''It also gives Tuukka the opportunity to laugh about that goal.''
Rask made sure there wouldn't be another collapse, stopping Ryan Callahan on a breakaway with just under 10 minutes to play. Callahan split the defense and went to his backhand, but Rask turned it away with the blocker on his right arm.
''As a goalie, you expect to make one or two big saves. And today it happened,'' Rask said. ''I didn't feel bad about myself after Game 4; obviously, there was a little screw-up there with that goal. But I didn't let that bother me, and I felt like I played a decent game after that.
''Coming in today, I just wanted to be rock solid back there, and give our team a chance to win the game.''
Campbell broke a 1-1 tie in the second period, then added an empty-netter with 51 seconds left to clinch it after Henrik Lundqvist was pulled for an extra skater.
Lundqvist made 29 saves and Dan Girardi scored for the Rangers, who lost to New Jersey in last year's East finals.
SECOND ... BEST!!See the best action photos from the second round of the 2013 Stanley Cup playoffs.
''I expected more from us, and I hoped for more,'' Lundqvist said. ''Right now, it's just an empty feeling, and disappointment. Some years you don't really have a chance to go that far in the playoffs, you just battle hard. I think this year, we had a pretty good team, but there were a few games when we didn't reach our top level. When you play a team like Boston, it's going to be tough to beat them.''
The Rangers fell behind 3-0 in the series before winning Game 4 on Thursday night to avoid a sweep, thanks in part to two soft goals that caught Rask off-guard. New York took an early lead on Saturday, but could not send the series back to Madison Square Garden for a sixth game.
''I watched our team fight tonight to extend this series. We get it on a big guy's stick with a chance to tie it,'' Rangers coach John Tortorella said. ''So it goes. They were the better team. They deserved to win.''
Girardi made it 1-0 on a power-play goal with 9:21 left in first, one-timing a pass from Mats Zucarello into the net. The Bruins scored a power-play goal of their own 3:48 into the second when Krug took a pass from Tyler Seguin and hit the top of the net.
HOCKEY'S HOTTIESCheck out photos of the NHL's 2013 ice girls.
Ten minutes later, Daniel Paille sent the puck to the net and it got caught up in traffic. Shawn Thornton knocked it to Campbell, who swept it in for the go-ahead goal.
The Rangers pulled Lundqvist with 1:15 left, but the Bruins quickly found the empty net on a slow-rolling shot by Campbell.
Notes: The Rangers had been 3-for-42 in the playoffs on the power play, but they scored on one for the second straight game. ... Krejci led all scorers in the playoffs (5G, 12A) entering Saturday's game. ... Bruins D Dennis Seidenberg, who was injured in the first minute of Game 7 in the first round, returned to the lineup. Dougie Hamilton was a scratch. ... Rangers F Brad Richards, the 2004 Conn Smythe Trophy winner, was a scratch for the second straight game. ... Rangers F Derek Stepan took a puck in the face in the first period and skated off but returned a short time later.

From Greg Oden on Playmaker Mobile:
So i got 9 of the 16 teams still left. Thats pretty good but not great,
but the only thing that still matters is that OSU is still in it and
they are lookin good. Turner is doing his thing and Diebler is stroken
it. Lighty is doin his thing. I think this team has it goin on and it
doesnt hurt either that Kansas fell off. Man that was a crazy upset.
overall just a good wk of college ball. Go Bucks!!
Straight from the man himself. Big surprise he has Ohio State winning it all. My apologies if his bracket is too small to read. It looks fine in the post preview but ya never know what happens when ya hit publish. It might be really small, too small, sort of like Ohio State's chances of winning it all.
Ohio State is gonna get more than good enough of a seed to win it all, but frankly seeding doesn't matter because you gotta win six games regardless. Can Ohio State do it? Not if my Villanova Wildcats have anything to do with it. But Greg Oden disagrees.
Posted today by Oden on Playmaker Mobile, available on the iPhone, Blackberry and other Verizon devices:
Its that time of yr again...March Madness. This is the time of yr that just makes me miss college ya know?! I know everyones gonna think im a homer for sayin this but I really do think OSU is gonna go all the way. They got the best player in the country in evan Turner. Imma big fan of his. They got all the pieces to make that run. You just gotta get hot at the right time. Well see how they do with the big 10 Tourny leading into the tournament. I think they gotta be a 2 seed at least. Go Bucks!
Villanova pranksters prank Syracuse suckers (aka Andy's hair loves Jay Wright)
Syracuse Orange fans like senior guard Andy Rautins for his 12 points/5 assists, but he's loved for his hair. So it's no surprise to see the Internet give birth to @AndyRautinsHair on Twitter. SB Nation says there's a new "funnyman on Twitter" and to "do yourself a favor and jump on board now before this guy hits it big."
Well this 'funnyman' turned out to be a Villanova pranked pulled by @Villagnome.
Let's start at the beginning, shall we?
SB Nation showed love to Andy's hair's Twitter account: "I can't believe I am letting this trump a thorough breakdown of Saturday's heavyweight match-up between the Orange and Villanova Wildcats, but there's a new funnyman on twitter, with the intent of giving a true voice to Andy Rautins'
hair. Appropriately titled, followers are coming in bunches to get the
scoop on just what makes Hair Canada's do so effing cool. Do yourself a favor and jump on board now before this guy hits it big."
Andy's hair can also be found at andyrautinshair.com (complete with a "Countdown to the Carnage," carnage being the Syracuse/Villanova game Saturday night 9pm ET).
And Syracuse fans are all about it: SEE WHAT I MEAN
But here's the thing, @KellyLux: It's not only Syracuse who could come up with this.
Enter, The Villagnome.
The Villagnome is responsible for both Andy's website and also @AndyRautinsHair, which now features a steady stream of pro-Villanova blah blah blah you get the point; you've been duped, 'Cuse. The Twitter account, the website, it was never a Syracuse affair. It's just a good old-fashioned sports prank (my favorite of all-time being the Harvard/Yale football game of 2004).
Below is Andy's hair's website right now, roughly seven hours before tipoff.
With roughly 200 followers now it'll be interesting to see how many 'Cuse fans fall of the Andy's Hair wagon before tipoff of tonight's game, the winner of which owns the driver's seat for winning the regular season Big East conference championship.
