MONROEVILLE - Police are attempting to determine a more exact timeline between the disappearance and drowning of a 7-year-old Monroeville girl Saturday.
Huron County Deputy Coroner Dr. Glenn Trippe pronounced Raeann E. Linn, of 85 Baker St., dead at 12:05 p.m. after a firefighter found her floating in a neighbor's swimming pool. About an hour and 10 minutes earlier, police said the girl's mother, Kelly Burrows, called saying she couldn't find her daughter.
"The (deputy) coroner believes she was in the water for quite some time," Monroeville Police Chief Mike Ruggles said Sunday.
Trippe is out of town and couldn't be reached for comment. A number listed for Burrows was disconnected or no longer in service as of this morning.
Officer Wallace Johnson's investigation initially has determined Burrows took some cold medication about 8:30 a.m. and in her words, "dozed on and off" on the couch. Before calling the police, Burrows looked for her daughter, but was unable to find her.
"One of the other children said she (Raeann) had gone outside. This is when she (Burrows) called Monroeville PD," Ruggles wrote. "It appears Raeann crawled over the fence to gain access to the pool (at 89 Baker St.), as the gates were secure. The pool is surrounded by the house and a deck all with fencing."
Ruggles said one gate was secured with a lock and the other with a bunjee cord. He explained there is a "slot" in the fence where the girl probably climbed.
"The firefighters had to (climb it) as well when they found her," Ruggles added. "A 7-year-old child wouldn't have been able to open the gate."
Johnson responded to Burrows' home at 11 a.m. Three minutes later, he requested the assistance of the Huron River Joint Fire District. Off-duty police officers also responded.
At 11:18 a.m., firefighter Tom Smith found the missing girl floating in a pool and retrieved her. Ruggles said firefighters, North Central EMS workers and one of the pool owners, who is a nurse, performed CPR until the girl was transported to Fisher-Titus Medical Center at 11:32 a.m.
Police still have to talk to Burrows as part of their investigation. Ruggles said the mother was distraught and "surrounded by family members" at the hospital Saturday, so that wasn't a good time to interview her.
"We don't have any reason to believe anything (illegal or suspicious) happened, but we still need to speak to her," he said. "She's the last one to see her (daughter) alive."
Ruggles said the pool owners took all the necessary precautions. He mentioned that if they had built a 15-foot fence or wall, somebody could have climbed it if they were determined to reach the pool.
Police also want to know if it was common for the girl, who is autistic, to go to the neighbor's pool.
"Unfortunately, nobody saw her do it," Ruggles said about Raeann climbing the fence. "The lady who owns the pool was even home."

Stadium consultants don't come cheap
Figuring out how much public money to spend on a new Chargers stadium is likely to cost $500,000 of public money.
The Centre City Development Corp., San Diego's downtown redevelopment arm, is preparing to spend that much on a mix of consultants whose work over 12 to 18 months could pave the way for stadium construction.
That would be in addition to $160,000 the agency is already investing in a study on how best to finance construction of a downtown Chargers venue.
Under state law, the CCDC could spend nearly $2.9 billion repairing blight and rebuilding the downtown area by 2033, but officials expect to hit that cap in 2023, a decade earlier than envisioned. (The agency largely pays for building projects by borrowing money against future property tax revenue; the law allows it to pay off its debt until 2043, at which time it would cease to exist.)
Under the cap, CCDC officials estimate they have $386 million of discretionary spending for a list of anticipated projects, excluding a stadium, that must compete for a limited pool of money.
They are now in the earliest stages of obtaining several approvals for lifting the cap to get more redevelopment revenue. They say they need a mix of consultants — lawyers, economists, engineers and soil experts — to prepare reports required by state redevelopment law to appeal the agency's cap. Among other things, consultants would examine what blight remains downtown and how much money the CCDC would need to remedy it.
The downtown site eyed by the Chargers sits partially on a contaminated metropolitan bus yard. CCDC Chairman Fred Maas said estimates to clean the site and relocate the bus yard reached $100 million several years ago.
"The costs are so significant, it's hard for any private-sector entity to come here and make that kind of expenditure," he said. "They're not just buying a land asset. They're buying a host of problems."
Maas said the CCDC has discussed lifting its cap for months, but the Chargers' interest in downtown has sped up the effort.
"There's no question that this has had a catalytic effect on making things happen," he said. "But it's something that we want to move forward on with or without the team."
By June, the CCDC had collected about $800 million of property tax revenue for the Centre City Project Area.
Under its cap, the redevelopment agency is able to collect an additional $2.1 billion, but much of that has already been committed. CCDC officials say all but the $386 million is obligated to other government agencies; affordable housing; administrative costs; and city loan, ballpark and debt-service payments. Those redevelopment efforts are distinct from the CCDC's oversight of the much smaller Horton Plaza Project Area. The process of lifting the "tax-increment limit" in the Centre City area could take 12 to 18 months. It's regulated by two state departments — the Department of Finance and the Department of Housing and Community Development — and requires approval from four government entities that have tax-sharing agreements with the CCDC.

So, the GWWC Regionals will consist of the top 12 eligible teams, with each team required to select 10 players. We were speculating yesterday just how far down the list they will have to go to find enough eligible teams.
The requirements:
+ Have a valid passport by January 4.
+ Remained with the same guild from 5-Dec-2005 through 1-Jan-2006.
+ Have > 50% of the team from the same region.
+ Provide RL contact info to their guild leader. ("Guild leaders may want to start gathering or verifying this contact information soon.")
+ Meet the age restrictions (to be determined).
+ Probably to sign an agreement to go to Taipei if you win (not yet explicitly in the rules).
So, how many of the top guilds will be able to field a full team of ten people who meet the requirements? How far down the ladder do you think A.Net will have to go to get 12 teams?

National Vanguard's Strom Seeks More Power
Veggies and Mozart
Strom was a strict vegetarian, Kaiser said, who never drank or used drugs. But he did have some Howard Hughes-like qualities. When he ate, he would only eat one food at a time and would never allow the different foods to touch each other or mix in any way, much like his philosophy on interracial dating. Strom was an extremely controlling husband, said Kaiser, who forced her to abstain from meat, forbade her to wear blue jeans, and predetermined her favorite music — Mozart.
There was no point in debating Strom on any issue, she said.
"If you disagreed with him, he'd literally keep you awake until you agreed with him," Kaiser said.
According to his ex-wife, Strom was a packrat who kept stacks and newspapers and magazines scattered throughout their home.
"You couldn't walk through his living room," Kaiser said.
For all his quirkiness, Strom proved invaluable to Pierce and the Alliance. Strom hatched the idea in 1991 to launch a weekly talk radio show called "American Dissident Voices." Strom produced and hosted the shows and negotiated with AM stations across the country to air the program. In the pre-Internet early '90s, "American Dissident Voices" provided a major vehicle for the Alliance to spread its message and drum up support. Every week, thousands of white supremacists across the country — and later, via the Internet and shortwave, around the world — listened to Strom's diatribes on the evils of Jews and minorities.
The same year he got the show going, Strom ingratiated himself to Revilo Oliver, a classics professor at the University of Illinois who, like Pierce, was considered an intellectual heavyweight within the neo-Nazi movement.
One of the founding members of the John Birch Society, Oliver once wrote, "Aryans are a small and endangered minority on this planet, but how many members of our race seem to have even an inkling of that fact?"
Trouble in Paradise
Strom and Kaiser first met Oliver in March of 1991, when the couple paid homage to him in a visit to his home in Illinois. Strom took his first-born son to visit the aging racist again in 1993, and Oliver put Strom in charge of archiving his academic writings on race. Then in 1994, Oliver killed himself.
"Hitler shot himself, [neo-Nazi leader Ben] Klassen shot himself, and Oliver shot himself," Kaiser noted in an Aug. 10, 1994, entry in her diary, right after Strom told her Oliver was dead. "Kevin's father killed himself. It seemed to be the suicide rate was high amongst people Kevin admired."
Just prior to Oliver's suicide, Kaiser said, Strom had sunk into a depression that only deepened with the death of his hero. At first withdrawn, Strom eventually began openly voicing his growing displeasure with Pierce. He felt underappreciated and underpaid.
In his biography of Pierce, The Fame of a Dead Man's Deeds, University of Vermont professor and white nationalist sympathizer Robert Griffin wrote that Strom often appeared to have "worked more under Pierce than alongside him, and never really with Pierce in a truly bonded way."
"From what I have picked up from Pierce," Griffin wrote, "his relationship with Strom was more akin to that of like-minded colleagues than fused brothers. "
For her part, Kaiser found Pierce arrogant and condescending. Still, despite their growing bitterness, the couple continued until 1995 living on Pierce's West Virginia compound, where they'd moved after a period living in a nearby town. Strom first started talking openly about leaving several weeks before the Oklahoma City bombing in April 1995, Kaiser said.
The day after the bombing, Strom was really worked up, she recalls. He made her help him take several boxes of papers and tapes to Stanton, Va., where they threw away the materials at various Dumpsters at different retail stores in the town.
Not long after the bombing, Strom told Pierce that he wanted to leave the compound. Pierce, needless to say, was displeased.
Strom and Kaiser relocated to Rochester, Minn., in November 1995. Strom chose the city because its population was 95% white. Kaiser found that once she was off the compound and was no longer forbidden to read newspapers or watch television, she began having doubts about the white supremacist movement as well as her marriage to Strom.
In 1997, Kaiser, who had begun work as a real estate agent, was fired from her job on her birthday, when her employer found out "just who and what Kevin Strom is," according to one of her diary entries. His letter to the editor of a local newspaper had been published that day.
That same year, the second of the Stroms' three children was diagnosed with autism — a genetic weakling, according to the neo-Nazi code. Strom blamed Kaiser for their son's disorder and left her, taking their first son and the baby born in 1996 with him. He also stopped working for Pierce, claiming the Alliance founder owed him money. Strom was initially granted custody of his children, moved to Texas and began home schooling them. But Kaiser eventually won full custody.

How much money did you manage in college? With the Lemma Senbet Fund, undergraduate students at the University of Maryland's Smith School of Business have the opportunity to manage over $100,000. Here's a look at what they do with those six figures.
Now in its second year, the student-run Senbet
Becoming a member of this fund is no small task. What's involved? Most students spend around 10 hours developing their application package, which includes an analyst report offering a buy, sell or hold recommendation on a stock. Once selected, fund members are required to serve for one year in the fund, including meeting on a biweekly basis. At the end of their one-year run, fund members earn six undergraduate credits toward their degree.

Palm Beach County, FL Schools and Colleges
There are around 10 non-profit colleges and universities within Palm Beach County, Florida. See how four of these schools stack up against each other to find the school for you.
School Ranking Overview
While there are many postsecondary schools and career training institutes in Palm Beach County, Florida, there are only a few that are not-for-profit. Most of these nonprofit institutions are 4-year colleges or universities. Out of the four schools discussed in this article, the top three were ranked according to each of the following factors:
- Program Variety
- Net Price
- Graduation Rate
- Student-to-Faculty Ratio
Program Variety
Having a number of choices from which to select a major can be an important consideration for many college students. Below are the top three schools that offer the highest number of learning options among the four schools profiled in this article.
1. Palm Beach State College
This public school based in Lake Worth offers approximately 110 fields of study. There are numerous diploma, associate's degree, professional certificate and apprenticeship programs available.

2. Florida Atlantic University
In 2007, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching named this Boca Raton institution as an exceptional public research university. The school offers more than 100 learning options, and students can pursue bachelor's, master's or doctoral degrees. Dual degree programs as well as undergraduate and graduate certificate options are also offered.

- Athletic Training
- Biblical and Theological Studies
- Exercise Science
- Forensic Science
- Journalism
- Medicinal and Biological Chemistry
- Marketing

- Pre-Law
- Public Relations
Net Price
Another significant component when deciding on a college is cost of attendance. The net price takes into consideration average undergraduate expenses minus the average amount of financial aid students receive. The data used below was compiled by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) and accounts for the 2012-2013 academic year.
1. Palm Beach State College
By far, this was the most affordable college out of all four institutions. In 2012-2013, the average out-of-pocket expense for undergrads was $2,647.
2. Florida Atlantic University
The cost to attend this private not-for-profit university was considerably higher. Undergraduate students spent an average of $13,614.
3. Palm Beach Atlantic University
While this private school was quite a bit more expensive than the first two, it still managed to beat out Lynn University. Students working toward their major at this school were responsible for an average annual cost of $22,793, compared to Lynn University's net price of $35,458.
Graduation Rate
The NCES also gathers school-specific data regarding the percentage of full-time undergraduate students who complete their degree on time. For bachelor's degree seekers, this is considered six years from the start date. Read on for school rankings in this category.
1. Palm Beach Atlantic University
Out of all bachelor's degree-seeking students who first began studying full time here in 2007, 47% graduated within six years' time. Additionally, out of the same classification of students, for those who began in 2012, 73% returned in 2013 for a second year of study.
2. Florida Atlantic University
At this school, 41% of all first-time majors who started full time in 2007 finished within what is considered a normal time frame. While FAU tied with Lynn University in graduation rate percentages, this school took second place because of its larger student population, specifically 30,759 in 2013.
3. Lynn University
As previously noted, this private nonprofit university in Boca Raton also had a 41% graduation rate, though a much smaller student population of just around 2,300 in 2013. Of all first-time bachelor's degree seekers who began their studies in 2012, 69% returned the following year.
Student-to-Faculty Ratio
College applicants might also want to think about the average number of students for each faculty member. The information used for the rankings below was also taken from the NCES and accounts for 2013.
1. Palm Beach Atlantic University
Students at this school benefited from a low student-to-faculty ratio. On average, there was one faculty member for every 13 students. In addition, the student population was relatively small, with fewer than 3,800 students attending.
2. Lynn University
Not far behind was this private university, which had the smallest student population of all four schools profiled. There was an average of one faculty member for every 17 students.
3. Florida Atlantic University
On average, there were 24 students for every faculty member here in 2013. This was out of approximately 30,750 students.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|5 - 7 nights
Right at the beach of the gated community of Costambar, only 12 miles from the Puerto Plata Intl. Airport this oceanfront fully staffed villa (sleeps up to 14 people) is waiting for you. You will enjoy being pampered by the full time maid. She will make drinks as needed, do laundry and keep the villa clean and tidy. Our handy man maintains the pool, keeps the grounds clean and runs errands for you as needed. All you have to do is ask and he is off for ice, beer,coffee or anything else you need. Night Time Security is provided as a precaution only.
All accommodations are made to make your stay the most relaxing vacation ever.
First floor: main apartment: 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, living, flat screen t.v., dining, garden, pool, terrace and beach. Separate young family apt.: 1 bedroom queen bed, 1 bathroom, 1 bedroom twin beds.
Second floor: 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, dining, living, flat screen t.v., oceanview balcony. Extra bedroom with separate entrance, bathroom and balcony.
The owner of this beautiful villa in the Caribbean has traveled to many different parts of the world in search for a perfect escape from his busy life and never thought to find it so close to home. The easy access (short, direct flights from US and Canada) to a tropical experience, a beautiful beach, serenity and an international population living in perfect harmony with the locals just made a 'complete package' for the owner (and will for anyone).
The Owner purchased this villa in 2006
We all love the Dominican Republic: it's beauty, people, the (sea)food, the music and its culture. It's our favorite place to be, and will be yours too.
An astonishing 180 degree view of the ocean. We have a warm, friendly staff. They will also mind your children while you go on excursion, or just sleep in. On request we can provide a private chef. It is a true VACATE-tion.
Very clean and good maintained villa to stay in and close to everything
Very quiet and spacious villa,the staff is very friendly and helpful. Tdhe pool is little small but it met my expectation.
I traveled to the DR with my parents and brother, and was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful the house was. The pictures accurately reflected the house, which I was not entirely expecting. The house was perfect for us to relax and hang out, swim, play games, and enjoy the view. Upon our arrival we were greeted by the wonderful staff, Bruno, Natacha and Yohanny, who were essential in making our trip so memorable. They keep the house so tidy, and they whipped up amazing dishes in the kitchen. They were so warm and kind and we really loved waking up to their company.
The beach at Costambar is only a few minutes walk from the house, and it is a beautiful and picturesque place you could spend the day, swimming, eating and drinking. Most things you need or want to do are close, either within walking distance or you can get there by taxi. The property manager is very helpful in arranging transportation.
Overall our stay was a wonderful experience, but there were a couple of negative points that should be mentioned. First, we could not get the A/C units to function so the house was a bit warm. Second, there are two large Mastiff dogs on site who are there for your protection and are very friendly. However, the dogs like to try and escape, which they successfully did twice. The locals are pretty afraid of the dogs, so we were quite concerned with getting the dogs back into the yard. While the dogs were nice to have around for safety, they did make it difficult to go in and out of the gate and were a pain to try and herd back to the house. The largest problem we had was the owner, who was gone for the first 6 of our 10 day stay, but stayed in the upper unit of the property for the remainder of our trip. Having the owner there, along with his guests, diminished the feeling of having a private villa all to ourselves, so before you book make sure you ask if the owner will be staying at the property while you are there.
Again, we had a wonderful trip and the staff was amazing, and as long as the owner is not on site, I would recommend this property to a friend.
From the start Ingrid was a joy to work with. She delivered on all of her promises and made the planning easy. She was always responsive, accurate with her responses and interested in what would work for our party of four. If you are looking for a clean, well run, fun and enjoyable place to be with chef, housekeeper and gardener, then look no further. Thanks to Natacha and Bruno and our great chef Francisco. All in all a great trip. Thansk Ingrid.
"Perla" is a charming villa where we were all pampered by Federico and Carolina, who attended to our every need. We enjoyed delicious meals caringly prepared, scrumptious sunset cocktails and delightful sunshine. Ingrid made everything so easy, arranged our trips and helped us decide the best way to enjoy the island! The villa was kept spotlessly clean. We enjoyed being picked up on the beach for a wonderful horseback ride through Costambar's lovely countryside. This was a terrific chance to relax including the sound of the ocean lulling us to sleep every night ... Thank you Federico, Carolina, Bruno and Ingrid...we will return!
What a great experience. My girlfriend (whom is from the DR), Mom, Dad, and myself decided we would visit the DR for our vacation. Initially we looked at the all inclusive resorts but after talking it over with my family- decided the villa was more our style.
The community was great, close restaurants to walk to, the public beach, a small market. It really had all you would need within walking distance. Not to mention that the backyard is the Caribbean..
The staff was very supportive and helpful. It was nice to be greeted with some locals each morning. They made you feel like you were taken care of.
I would recommend this experience to anyone who does not want the typical hotel all inclusive, waiting in lines, time share experience. It was a vacation but it was also a good cultural experience, plus a bit of an adventure.
I don't think you need to speak Spanish to enjoy this trip- of course it helps. But in no way is it a show stopper. Most people we met spoke English and were always smiling, and willing to help.
We had a car and that was great to get out and see the many sites and restaurants in Puerto Plata. But it seemed that you could easily get a driver and make arrangements with the staff if you did not want to drive.
I would think that this would be a good vacation for a family with kids, as well as a large group of adults. The Villa was large and setup to handle kids running around or adults enjoying the ocean breeze with a rum drink of your choice.
I cant wait to go again!
Costambar beach is an abundance of coral, some of which comes right up to the beach. There are patches of the sea suitable for swimmers where you can go out of your depth, just be careful to keep an eye on the coral reefs, most of which are clearly visible.
You don't have to leave Costambar to find bars, restaurants, a 9-hole golf course, a Spa, horse back riding, tennis courts, racket ball court and much more all at walking distance.
Just two miles away in the nearby village of Cofresi you will find Ocean World Adventure Park, boasting the largest dolphin lagoon in the Caribbean, as well as sharks, sea lions and variety of marine life and tropical birds. There's also a Dolphin Encounter program and a shark interaction pool.
Scuba Diving
A choice of dive shops take all levels of enthusiasts out to sites off the north coast, and the coral reef, underwater caves and shipwrecks that lie beneath. Sosua, just east of Puerta Plata, is one of the most popular sites and easily reached from Costambar.
Ocean World also features a discotheque with an amazing view of the ocean and great music; a casino, with slots, roulette, poker tables etc; an excellent restaurant... 24 hours of fun! Must see is the Bravissimo Show. Maybe even better than Las Vegas's dance shows because here the rhythms are Caribbean and they make you dance in you chair from the beginning until the end.

I just found my forever home!
Hi. My name is Herman. I am a small, shy, but friendly, neutered American Fuzzy lop boy. I was surrendered to the animal shelter by my guardian who was unable to give me the proper care I needed to keep my long, silky hair brushed and groomed. Consequently, I need to be partially shaved to get rid of the mats and tangles. But now, I look great, if I say so myself, and I am eager to find a forever , loving home with room to run, play and gets lots of pets and kisses.
Because of my longhair, I will need to be adopted by someone who recognizes how important it is both for my physical health and my emotional health, to groom and brush me daily. Most people don't know that I could actually get very sick or maybe even die from ingesting too much of my own fur.
Unlike cats who throw up hairballs, rabbits don't vomit, so hair can block up our system. A bunny like me is so incredibly handsome , but also a requires a lot of patience and work to keep me healthy.
I hope you would like to meet me soon. I really want to be adopted!

Each piece is unique and slight variations in size, glaze and smoothness is part of the beauty of artisan pieces. Artist wished to remain anonymous.

Grant Funds Hiking and Biking Trail at Richmond, Va., Home for Chronically Mentally Ill
Providing physical activity programs to adults with chronic mental illness
Gateway Homes of Greater Richmond (Va.) constructed a three-mile hiking and biking trail on its 30-acre campus — a residential living facility for the chronically mentally ill — and purchased eight mountain bicycles, bicycle helmets, water bottles and first-aid kits.
During trail construction, six acres of land were cleared and a roadway was excavated, graded, and covered with 200 tons of gravel. This grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) also provided funds to purchase eight mountain bicycles, bicycle helmets, water bottles, and first-aid kits. The original proposal had called for a five-mile trail but was revised to three miles due to higher-than-anticipated costs. A grant from the John Randolph Foundation allowed Gateway to purchase an additional 12 bicycles.
Since its inception in 1983, Gateway's mission has been to provide an environment in which adults who struggle with chronic mental illness can enhance their quality of life through a continuum of supportive and compassionate care. Gateway's cost-effective, three-tiered program is aimed at decreasing long-term hospitalization and moving residents to a more independent lifestyle.
A frequent and unwelcome side effect of the psychotropic medications residents use to control their symptoms of mental illness is excessive weight gain. This project was part of Gateway's larger commitment to comprehensive physical fitness and nutrition programs.
Key Results
Through aerobics, walking, biking, and nutrition classes, Gateway promotes a healthy lifestyle for its residents. Gateway residents are required to walk or bike the new trail five times a week for one hour under the guidance of a physical activity instructor, and many have lost weight or have been able to maintain a desirable weight as a result.
During the 12 months after the trail was completed:
- One resident lost 100 pounds and another lost 68 pounds, achievements for which they were honored at a special dinner in December 2001.
- A local church youth group erected trail and mileage markers, and residents, staff and other local volunteers will maintain the trail.
- Gateway Homes purchased a storage facility to house the bikes and other equipment.
RWJF provided $50,000 to support the project from November 1999 to January 2001.

- Jun 3 6:33 PMThat's wonderful! I truly believe you'll find, as I did, torrents of grace quite unexpectedly.
---However, you will also find snares from the devil as he attempts to disillusion you. In my experience 100% of those who put their heart into it run into such a snare at some point.
I've found it pays to bear in mind at all times that the church is a hospital; it is made up of sinners, not all of whom will take their medicine.
In my secular job I work in health care, and this is true in that context with alarming frequency. People ignore their med regimen, defy fall precautions, don't go to the ER when they need to, smoke like chimneys, live on fatty foods with no nutritional value, putting themselves at high risk for heart attack/stroke as well as any number of other ailments.
Thus the true church, as we see in the NT, is far from perfect. If you stop and look at Scripture you realize the apostolic church was plagued by every imaginable sin: gross sexual immorality, people posing as hierarchs; Judaizing, angel-worship, pride, drunkenness, disorderly worship, laziness, gluttony, rejecting an apostle; plotting against an apostle; lawsuits, judgmentalism, despising the poor, women grabbing for authority, people quitting their jobs to wait for the Second Coming; poor tithing, lukewarmness, rejecting Scripture, and....well, the list goes on and on.
The reason I say this is that sometimes people feel that because they've found the true church it will be completely free from problems....and then become disillusioned when Satan reveals some significant sin.
Anyhow, as I say, I'm sure you will be blessed beyond anything you can imagine. You will be in my prayers.
In Christ,

Decent place for an overnight stay, if you have to stay in the Idaho Falls area. Bed is comfortable enough. Good selection of channels on the small flat panel TV. Room had a very strong cleaning detergent smell, I didn't like it but wife didn't mind...I eventually got used to it. Shower was okay. Room and bathroom were clean. Papa John's delivers so you don't have to leave your room and venture out into the desolate void that is Idaho Falls. Pepsi soda machine. Breakfast is cereal, small bagels and an assortment of pastries, and juice. Friendly staff. Wi-fi works great. Very cheap rates. Would stay here again if I ever found myself in Idaho Falls again...which is doubtful.

This term should be outlawed. The early Gens were amazing games for their time. Was the original King Kong a bad movie because it didn't have colour or CGI? No, because it was revolutionary for its time, much like Red and Blue. It's true that the gameplay has improved over the years, but is it so wrong to like the originals for what they were back in the old days? I should hope not.
It's fine if you're younger and like the new generations more, but it irritates me whenever I see people say that the originals sucked because they were primitive, and that we only like them because we have nostalgic memories of them.
What's going to happen years from now, when we're on Gen Ten? The kids of today will probably look back at B/W and like them more than the newest ones because they grew up with them.
I like all of the generations. They all have their own positive and negative aspects. But Gen 1 will always be my favourite because it was an important part of my childhood. The same can be said for kids who grew up with any generation. (And Charizard will always be my #1.)

... Okay.
I'm 21, I've been playing since the RBY days, I can still acknowledge that the games and the Pokemon craze were perhaps one of the best aspects of my childhood and STILL recognise the fact that they did not age well, and are virtually unplayable because they're missing fundamental improvements that are now core to the series.
No one trashes the games, but from a factual, non-sentimental standpoint, they are inferior to the newer titles in many ways. That's the cold hard reality of it, and nostalgia should never be a valid reason as to why they're "better" than the rest. Because they're not.

Aussie Open: Radwanska ousts defending champ Azarenka in quarters
MELBOURNE, Australia (AP)
Victoria Azarenka's run as Australian Open champion ended in a yelling, screaming quarterfinal defeat against Agnieszka Radwanska on Wednesday, continuing the flow of stars tumbling out of the season's first major.
NET PLAYFOXSports.com serves up the latest from the tennis world:
Fifth-seeded Radwanska stopped Azarenka's 18-match winning run at Melbourne Park and her own streak of three consecutive quarterfinal defeats at the Australian Open with a stunning display of versatile shot-making that shocked and confused the two-time champion.
The result means both defending champions were out in the quarterfinals — Novak Djokovic lost in five sets to Stan Wawrinka on Tuesday night.
Azarenka's defeat followed the fourth-round exits of top-ranked Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova and leaves 2011 French Open champion Li Na as the only major winner remaining in the women's draw.
Radwanska next plays No. 20 Dominika Cibulkova, who won the last eight games in a one-hour, 6-3, 6-0 quarterfinal rout of No. 11-seeded Simona Halep.
Li, a two-time finalist in Australia, will play 19-year-old Canadian Eugenie Bouchard in the other semifinal.
Radwanska played drop shots and slices from the baseline, forcing Azarenka to come forward and then lobbing or passing her. She hit touch volleys with calm precision, and instinctively anticipated Azarenka's shots.
TWITTER PARTY!Follow what the top players are saying, get updates from the scene and more with our Australian Open Twitter feed.
She didn't fall into big-swinging rallies against the second-seeded Azarenka, either, continually mixing it up and saving the power for when she needed it.
"She was aggressive. She was making everything. She was guessing right," Azarenka said. "I was just playing a little bit too predictably.
"In the second set I managed to fight back. Third set, the first game was important. I let it go, like easily let it go. From there just couldn't get back to it."
Radwanska was also safe on her own serve, dropping just two games in the two-hour match while breaking Azarenka six times. She hadn't beaten Azarenka in their last seven matches, and had only won three of their previous 13.
"I said to myself one day I have to have one step forward and do the semifinal, and I'm so, so happy that I did it finally," Radwanska said of her first run to the semis of a major on hard courts. She reached the final at Wimbledon in 2012, becoming the first player from Poland to reach a major final in the Open Era, and the semifinals last year.
FUN IN MELBOURNEThe Australian Open is in the books, and what a fortnight it was. Check out some shots of the lighter side of the event.
"I really had nothing to lose. She was defending the title, not me. I was really trying to play my best tennis, go for every shot I could," Radwanska said.
Azarenka went down in a flurry of unforced errors, making 47 in three sets as she tried to push Radwanska around.
She seemed to have momentum at the end of the second set, when she leveled after breaking in the last game. But she didn't carry it through, pushing a forehand fractionally too wide on the first point and unsuccessfully challenging the out call.
It was a sign of things to come. She won only 14 points in the third set, and was broken three times.
Azarenka was booed late in the match, when she smashed a ball into the back of the court after another frustrating error. She screamed loudly after losing big points to the incredibly consistent Radwanska, punched her thigh and her racket and even slapped the court. Nothing worked to change her fortunes.
"I'm not happy with what I did today, but on the court I felt like I could have played a lot better," Azarenka said. "I can't take away what she's done today. She played amazing."

Foreign Affairs
Two Reader's Reviews
I could not keep my eyes off the book. It is mind-blowing. The author takes you through such an exciting journey of sex, passion, hidden fantasies and much more. Each chapter is a different erotic story that will trigger your mind and will make you want to read more and more. Honestly it is hard to put down. And like me, you may find more than one of your erotic fantasies coming true.
Joshrx7, Australia

I just finished reading Jacqueline's book, Foreign Affairs. This novel is fantastic, very hot and very literate. It is a veritable travelogue of sex as the title indicates. It revolves around a collection of short stories placed in exotic locations by an English writer, John Trehearne. They are being read at a censorship review proceeding and narrative between the stories develops John's character and his romantic opposite, Priscilla. Although, like most romances, the end of the novel is predictable the short stories often have trick endings with implied meanings keeping everything spicy. Several characters appear in more than one story and Trehearne admits that they are somewhat autobiographical. This links the stories right into the big picture, one of the characters even sent a letter addressing the censorship proceedings. Because of this related story-within-a-story technique, Foreign Affairs provides a richness of thought not often found in spicy romances. It's a red hot read and a novel that will stick in the back of your mind.

Multimedia Dynamite
What should the Linux movie player of your dreams do? It should play any movie/video that you throw at it. No questions asked—just play. It should allow seeking and volume control with the keyboard and mouse. It should work with an infrared remote controller and also play television. It should play DVDs and VCDs too. MPlayer can do all of this and much, much more.
MPlayer also is an award-winning, mature, open-source program that still is actively in development. Perhaps one day in the not-too-distant future, support for DVD menus, color subtitles, picture in picture video, MIDI and audio effects plugins like the ones for SoX will be added.
MPlayer is admirably stable for the job it does. However, it does crash under certain circumstances, such as with certain video drivers.
It is a mature application that has no parallel. MEncoder, its companion video encoder program, does a much better job than FFMPEG in transcoding videos, although it is a bit difficult to use and learn.
Now, let's take a look at MPlayer's magic. The following command plays a stream URL after resampling it to 48,000Hz and combining channels into left-right stereo:
$ mplayer -af lavcresample=48000,hrtf ↪'http://mp3.streampower.be/radio1-mid.mp3'
The following command grabs the same URL stream and dumps it to a file named stream.aac:
$ mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile stream.aac ↪-softvol -softvol-max 2000 -af ↪lavcresample=48000,volnorm=2:0.5 ↪'http://mp3.streampower.be/radio1-mid.mp3'
You can open the stream file from another terminal window with this command:
$ mplayer stream.aac
Then what happens? The first instance of MPlayer continues to dump the network stream to a file and the second plays it for you—time-shifted Internet radio. Cool, eh?
Most of the switches are not necessary to accomplish this, but they show MPlayer's ability to use the Linux command line so elegantly. The -softvol and -softvol-max switches invoke the software volume control feature of MPlayer. It reduces the signal-to-noise ratio, but it can amplify the signal to very high levels.
The volnorm=2:0.5 filter invokes the volume normalization audio filter. The first argument, 2, specifies that several samples are to be used to smooth the volume variations. The 0.5 sets the maximum amplitude to which you want the volume normalized. As you can see, MPlayer provides a high level of customization.
The other options on the command line should not be difficult to decipher.
The following is a command similar to the first one above. In this case, however, you specify a playlist URL. Unlike the above command, this one may not work for you, depending on whether the file happens to be available from the SHOUTcast site when you try it:
$ mplayer -af lavcresample=48000,hrtf -playlist ↪'http://www.shoutcast.com/sbin/shoutcast-playlist.pls?rn ↪=1025&file=filename.pls'
The -playlist option is used only with stream URLs that have a .pls extension in the stream.
You can create your own playlists in a variety of ways. Here is one way to do it with the find command:
$ find /home/girish/music -name "*mp3 ↪-or -name "*ogg" > ~/playlist.txt
Now, fire up MPlayer with:
$ mplayer -playlist ~/playlist.txt
The following variant shuffles the list and plays songs in random order without repeating songs:
$ mplayer -shuffle -playlist ~/playlist.txt
Naturally, MPlayer is a media player. You don't have to limit yourself to audio files. You could add any MPlayer-playable media file into the mix, including videos, movies, television, radio and, of course, Internet streams.
In addition to this simple line-based playlist format, MPlayer also has excellent support for ASX, M3U and other popular playlist formats.
There is good support for audio effects, and the karaoke effect especially gets interesting with certain songs. It is not perfect, but you can attenuate the voice in a song a great deal. Use the following command to activate karaoke mode:
$ mplayer -af karaoke song.mp3
MPlayer also has a ten-octave band equalizer. The following command ignores the middle frequency bands and amplifies the frequencies around 31.25Hz by 7dB, 62.5Hz by 8dB, 125Hz by 5dB and all of the frequencies around 4, 8 and 16Hz are attenuated by 2dB:
$ mplayer -af equalizer=7:8:5:0:0:0:-2:-2:-2 video.mpg
The following command gives a live effect to playback. Try it with songs that sound monotonous:
$ mplayer -af extrastereo song.mp3
You can issue a command like the following to play the third song five times:
$ mplayer song1.mp3 song2.ogg file.wav -loop 5
If you want to repeat the whole list five times, type the following instead:
$ mplayer { song1.mp3 song2.ogg file.wav } -loop 5
You also can use -loop 0 to play something over and over again.
Additionally, there are many audio effect plugins designed especially for multichannel and 3-D audio. If you want some really advanced audio effects, try the SoX Swiss Army knife. It is another command-line application that excels in professional audio effects.
You can specify multiple audio filters on the command line and they are applied one after another in a chain.
What if you like a certain audio filter chain and you want to save the resulting audio to a file? The following command saves the output of filtering to the file named filtered.wav rather than playing it:
$ mplayer -ao pcm:file=filtered.wav -channels 4 -af lavcresample=48000,hrtf,pan=2:1:0:0:0.3:0.5:0.5:0:12 audio.ogg
The lavcresample filter resamples the frequency of audio.ogg to 48,000Hz.
The pan filter is a very powerful and sophisticated filter. It mixes the input audio channels into the specified output channels in various amplitudes.
In this example, we use the -channels switch to specify four input channels. The first argument to pan is 2 to specify two output channels. In the first pair of arguments after that, the 1:0 specifies the amplitude of the first input channel that is fed into the two output channels. It goes into the left channel with an amplification factor of 1. The second input channel goes into the right channel with an amplification factor of 0.3 (0:0.3), and the third input channel is divided equally into both output channels (0.5:0.5). The fourth channel goes into the right channel with an amplification factor of 12.
You can use the following command to re-encode the WAV file to Ogg:
$ oggenc -q 9 filtered.wav

A new poll conducted by EPIC-MRA of Lansing shows that 50 percent of Michigan voters would be likely to support a future ballot proposal to legalize the possession or cultivation of marijuana by adults 21 years of age or older and allow taxable sales at state-licensed stores.
The poll was commisioned by NORML's MI chapter, and surveyed 600 people. Now, while 50% of the vote may seem like it was split down the middle, there was actually an undecided count of 4%, making this a final vote of 50/46. Good news for Michigan!
Borrowed from an article at mlive:
On another topic, voters may circulate petitions to place a proposal on a future election ballot relating to the issue of marijuana. The proposal would make the possession and cultivation of limited amounts marijuana legal in the State of Michigan for adults age 21 or older. Also, it would allow the sale of marijuana to adults age 21 or older only by stores that would be licensed by the state, and finally, it would tax the sale of marijuana by these state licensed stores. If this proposal were to appear on a future election ballot, if the election were held today, would you vote yes to approve of the proposal, or would you vote no to oppose it?
39% Definitely vote yes
9% Probably vote yes
2% Lean toward voting yes
35% Definitely vote no
8% Probably vote no
3% Lean toward voting no
4% Undecided/Refused
