Genocidal Mentality by Robert Jay Lifton and Erik Markusen, Macmillan, pp 360, Pounds sterling 20.
Hiroshama is now a bustling city. If it were not for the Peace Park and the Dome (the one half-devastated building left standing), you would never guess that an atom bomb had exploded here. The park and the museum, with its surreal and grotesque exhibits, are moving memorials.
But the revived city sends a mixed message. The suffering was horrendous but there is life after the bomb. If the Japanese had left more of the wrecked city, it might have been even harder for the survivors to bear but the world might have been more effectively deterred. We could fool ourselves less easily about the destruction the bomb could inflict.
According to Robert Jay Lifton and Erik Markusen, people are all too ready to blind themselves to the realities of nuclear armaments. The authors dissect ...

Wolfpack Knocks Off Northwestern 69-48 in ACC/Big Ten Challenge
Dec. 4, 2013
Box Score | Photo Gallery | Gottfried Quotes | Northwestern Quotes
RALEIGH, N.C. - Led by sophomore forward T.J. Warren's game-high 22 points, the NC State men's basketball team defeated the Northwestern Wildcats by the score of 69-48 on Wednesday night at PNC Arena in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge.
Warren, the nation's 17th leading scorer at 22.7 points per game, scored 16 of his game-high 22 points in the first half, topping the 20-point plateau for the fifth time this season.
Senior center Jordan Vandenberg continued his solid play, scoring 12 points to compliment a career-high five blocks on the night, while freshman forward Lennard Freeman notched career highs with 10 points and 10 rebounds, garnering the first double-double of his young NC State career.
Junior guard Ralston Turner added 13 points off the bench, tying his season-high.
"I really liked our defense tonight," NC State head coach Mark Gottfried said. "I like the fact that our young players did a pretty good job paying attention. I liked the fact that through there was carry over from practice to the game as far as our young guys learning how to defend. It was a pretty good game defensively for us. Offensively we knew we were going to see the 2-3 zone. We were good a penetrating the zone and getting the ball around the rim."
The Wolfpack dominated the game down low, scoring 36 points in the paint compared to just 10 for Northwestern. State scored 20 of its first 24 first half points in the paint, as Warren dominated with a variety of runners in the lane, layups and putbacks. Moreover, the Wolfpack had a season-low five turnovers while dishing out 16 assists, a more than 3:1 margin.
Warren reeled off eight straight points at the start of the game to fuel a 10-0 run as the Wolfpack jumped out to an early 12-6 lead. After a basket by Northwestern cut the margin in half, State put together a 10-2 spurt to push the advantage to 22-11 at the 4:17 juncture. The Wildcats closed within seven points, but a Turner three-pointer along with back-to-back buckets from Anthony 'Cat' Barber pushed the Wolfpack halftime lead to 31-20.
State opened the second half on an 11-1 run to take at 42-23 lead less than five minutes in. From there, the Pack maintained a working margin of no fewer than 15 points over the next ten minutes of play, pushing the lead to as much as 22 on three separate occasions.
Turner scored eight of his 13 points during the stretch to keep the Pack comfortably in front before a Tyler Lewis to Vandenberg alley-oop gave the Wolfpack a 23-point lead with less than three minutes to play. Lewis, who totaled a game-high seven assists on the night, dished out six in the second half.
Drew Crawford led Northwestern (4-5) with 17 points and nine rebounds.
NC State (5-2) will host Long Beach State this Saturday, Dec. 7 at PNC Arena. Tip-off is scheduled for 2 p.m.

Er uh... You played Er.... Something about the devil...
And it was amazing!!!
Thank you very much Kev. Really appreciate it.
If you're going to act like that then perhaps I was wrong to consider you at all then. And if that's the way you feel, then why the hell did you make a thread inviting all feds to "come and get you"?
I've told you EWNCW's stance towards wanting your character, there are reasons we've taken that stance and you're welcome to find out what they are if you want to. But if you're going to assume that we're simply being unappreciative and frankly being complete dicks towards you, then fine, go ahead. Because that my friend is your loss.
You won't repair many bridges with that approach and attitude to your second chance here.
My message was buried on that thread due to an excess of irrelevant stuff being posted:

Everytime I've seen this come up, people record the audio separate and
mash it back together. ie run audacity in the background and then use
mplayer/mencoder to put them together. Or make the film and record the
audio while editing in kino etc.

Rated 3.8 out of 5 by 379 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Deb44 This hotel is great Always enjoy must visits to this location. The rooms are very relaxing, the staff is extremely helpful and the food is wonderful. The locations makes it even greater July 12, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by TSizzle Again disappointed I stay at this hotel on each departure from Milan (there to four stays annually). This is the second time that the hotel has dropped the ball on my wake up call. Upon check in I requested a room near the elevators as I had an early morning meeting in the lobby and I also requested a 7:30 A.M. wake up call. Instead I received a room at the far end of the hotel (3122) and no wake up call. Considering this is an airport terminal based hotel I would expect that wake up calls are critical items yet this is the second stay this has happened to me. Pretty disappointing to say the least. July 11, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by SteveH1966 Good functional hotel. This hotel is a good, functional hotel only let down by the very poor service in the bar and the dark brown decor which makes it seem a little drab. Restaurant excellent both food and service July 6, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by thevlture average European travel hotel Pros: beautiful, spacious. Modern rooms. Location. Menu prices very reasonable. Cons: pool (see below), room amenities(see below) Having stayed at over 100 SPG properties worldwide, this is the first time that a shower cap was mandatory to use the pool. 5 euro from the hotel if you don't have one. A little too "convenient" honestly. Was I at a hotel or had I become an extra in The Great Gatsby? I refused and skipped the pool that I had been looking forward too. Little wonder I saw no one using the pool. Also, 10 euro to use the the steam room and sauna for a Platinum guest is a ripoff. Secondly, in typical European travel hotel fashion there are no ironing boards in the guest rooms. But unlike every other European hotel have stayed this hotel does not have them available to bring to your room. You either have to wait for the cleaning service to open or take your clothes to the crew lounge to iron your clothes. Being told this at check-in would have been nice. This was 20 minutes I did not account for when waking up. I was told it is for safety reasons. Apparently every hotel and motel in America is unsafe. Who knew? July 4, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Francesco65 This Hotel needs improvement I was given a room for the handicapped, Services were uncomfortable, the shower curtain, flooding the room, the hot water was not often I had to take showers warm / cold. The staff at the front desk could not help me and it was not even polite. July 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by MilanStayJuly2014 Milan Airport Stay The hotel is modern and very convenient but is getting out of date in some ways. The club lounge and bar space are excellent and the staff are first rate. It can be loud but is at the airport so that is to be expected. July 4, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Alex0303 Not great I feel for the price the only positive is the location if you need need to be at malpensa early it's easy Ice machine not working spa spars and expensive ,dinner ok,breakfast expensive . I am not thrilled with this hotel it needs work and is very unkept . July 1, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by KMK1951 Typical airport hotel This hotel is what you would expect from a Sheraton airport property. It is modern, clean, and provides good amenities. On the other hand, it requires extremely long walks to get from the desk to your room, and our trek from our room to the check-in area at the airport required almost 20 minutes of brisk walking (we flew home on Delta, which is located at the far end of the terminal). July 1, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by 1331 Weak Restaurant bar service was poor. Check in and out worse. SPG not recognized at all until after I complained. Only reason I would repeat stay is because of location at airport terminal. June 30, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by flouflou1 Good Hotel, Bad Staff We liked everything about our stay at the Sheraton Malpensa except for the rude and incompetent staff at the front desk. A man named "Aggi" greeted us with the utmost animosity and rudeness upon our arrival and instead of checking us into our room, stood at the desk and argued with us over our reservation for 20 minutes. We asked him three times to speak with his supervisor and he refused to honor our request. His English and Italian were both insufficient for his position, and his failed check in process created a totally unpleasant first experience with the hotel. June 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Thirstytraveler Best Airport Hotel In Europe Tis hotel is perfect! The staff and Resident Manager are extremely professional and understand client service. IThe restaurant and bar/'lounge serve high quality food. Room service is top notch as well. The indoor pool is fantastic and free of charge, The concierage lounge on the 3rd floor is extremely well stocked and accessible. WIFI is free and the signal is strong everywhere. One suggestions - clear the plates in the concierage lounge more often to keep the tables clean. June 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Radi Great hotel at Malpensa airport What a treat to have such good hotel with accessibility to the Malpensa airport June 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ojai Ojai Excellent service and facilities. Right at airport terminal. June 27, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by lhbari Quiet, but in-room WiFi charge--really?? This hotel is very large (2 miles walking from room to gate, but part of that is the new re-routing past more shops in the airport before you can double back to the gates). The rooms are spacious and well-appointed (even a wash cloth). The decor is masculine and fixtures are high (e.g. high tub to crawl into and out of, high hooks on bathroom walls--a bit of a stretch for this short woman). But you have to go to a common area for free WiFi--inconvenient, especially given the long corridors). Really? In this day and age? All the other hotels I stayed in provided free WiFi (well, included in the room rate). This hotel's rate was comparable. One "American" feature that is not appreciated. June 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Casslovestotravel fantastic convenience Fantastically located directly opposite Malpensa airport this is hotel is highly recommended. Great nights sleep and no stress about missing my flight as hotel is connected by walkway to terminal. Only wish I had known about it early - would have stayed the night before my flight in the first instance. June 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tina88 Excellent Locations and Hotel Thank you for a great stay! All staff from check-in, house keeping and at the resteraunt were amazing! well done! June 25, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by IHS3 Excellent Location Excellent location. You can walk there from the plane in 2 minutes . .Although the room was reasonably well soundproofed you could still faintly hear the car traffic passing by the window with a "wooshing " sound. .This may have been due to a cracked window as the glass pane was crazed. Otherwise overall excellent. Room 3120. June 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Louise46 Location and very helpful staff Excellent choice if you need a hotel near the airport or if you need to catch the express trains around Italy. All staff were friendly and helpful. Great hotel if you are elderly as it is a short walk from Terminal 1. I would recommend this hotel to family and friends. I will return. Thankyou June 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JayOR Great location This fairly new hotel is the place to stay when flying out of Malpensa. It is a short walk to the terminal and provides a nice breakfast spread to start the journey. We had rented an Avis car on our travels and was able to turn it in literally right under the hotel. Very convenient. June 17, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by swelch1188 good location i had reserved a non smoking room and although I was told it was non smoking - someone had been smoking in it. I called the desk to advise them 2 times but no one answered. When I went down to the desk to advise them of the situation, I was told I shuld have called. When I said I had and no one answered, I was told - "we were very busy then." Other than that big gaff, all else about the room was fine. The restaurant food was mediocre. June 16, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by AviSen Yet Another Airport Hotel Being located near the hotel is the only advantage that this can provide. June 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Arev Fantastic This hotel has great features June 14, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by maxspeed159 Sheraton Malpensa on Business Convenient and close to the airport but facilities lack love and care... handles loose in bathroom, sauna out of order, pool closed, heat in corridors, carpets with huge stains or uneven, little or no staff at check-in... June 13, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by SydneyRick Lack of competition makes for poor performance This airport hotel takes far too much for granted, and performs like a typical monopoly. They don't try to get their customers back, because they believe they will fill the hotel come what may. The rooms are tired, the staff abrupt, and if there was a reasonable alternative at Malpensa airport, I'm sure people would flock to it. All things considered, not a pleasant place to stay, and having stayed at Starwood group hotels on every continent, I can safely say that this hotel is the Group's worst. June 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by DavidS54 Convenient, comfortable and good value The hotel is perfectly placed after a long flight. It is just a short walk from the terminal and is right next to the train station. All the staff were helpful and pleasant, the room was comfortable and quiet, and good value. June 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ThinkPink The Last Day of our Holiday This hotel is fantastic everything, location- as we dropped off our hire car we took a few steps and we were into Malpensa Airport Terminal 1 and the doors of the Sheraton were right there booked in and then were able to take a few more steps and were in airport to claim back our tax, bar open all day for light food and drinks, great meal in restaurant at night and buffet breakfast ( everything imagineable available) included in tariff. Top Hotel would recommend for everything. June 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Luigi2012 INTERNET ACCESS It's a shame there is not free high speed internet access in the rooms. June 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Katiedid So convenient While I have stayed at this Sheraton many times since its having been built, I found that this time the staff and the entire hotel seemed to be more "on its game." I always stay on the lounge level and found it to be the best of all my stays. My wife and I look forward to our next stay at the Sheraton Malpensa. June 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by DavidP Convenient Airport Location This is the place to stay the before or after a flight from Malpensa Airport. Its location right in the terminal removes all transportation hassles. The on-site restaurant, Il Cannetto, is a bit over-priced but excellent. June 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by julieop only hotel within airport very pleased with service and amenities. May 30, 2014

Indians catcher Kirk Haviland was just inches late on the tag during a four-run fifth inning.
One bad inning cost the Swift Current Indians the game against the league leading Regina Red Sox on Thursday.
The visiting Sox scored four runs on three singles, two fielders choices, and an error in the top of the fifth inning to defeat the Indians 4-1.
Kirk Haviland scored the lone Indians run courtesy of a solo home run that bounced off the top of the wall in left-centre in the second inning, his sixth of the season.
Mat Tew suffered the loss, allowing five hits and four runs over 4 1/3 innings with two strikeouts to drop to 2-1.
Nick Cervantes moved to 6-0 for the Red Sox, allowing only five hits over nine innings with two walks and five strikeouts.
The Indians dropped to 21-14 in the loss, while the Sox improved to 28-9 as both teams continue to lead their respective divisions.
The Indians will be in Lethbridge on Friday to face the Bulls (18-24) as they embark on a three-game road trip.

Blackened by soot and smoke, the pieces of furniture were slowly and carefully removed by helpers from the consignment shop on N. Monroe St. where a roaring fire during the weekend caused extensive damage to two buildings.
Diane Lankford is the owner of Then and Now, a resale shop she operated at the corner of E. Lorain St. The business had been open only eight days before a ball of fire ignited Saturday night, consuming the rear of the building and damaging an apartment building next door.
"It's been devastating," Ms. Lankford said Tuesday as helpers removed tables, chairs, bedroom furniture and other pieces from the damaged shop. "But I want to thank everyone for their support. People I don't even know have offered to help me."
Fire officials examining the wreckage determined that the fire started outside the rear of the building, underneath an exterior stairway. However, Joseph Mominee, deputy director of public safety, said he is not certain what caused the fire, which grew swiftly and dangerously.
"It was unbelievable how fast it went," Mr. Mominee said while examining the ruins Tuesday. "This was one hot fire."
Flames ignited near the air conditioning units and trash cans. It could have sparked due to an electrical short or even by wayward fireworks, Mr. Mominee said. At this point in the investigation, he cannot determine the cause, although there is no evidence that arson was involved.
"I do not think there was foul play," he said. "All indications point to the fire starting on the outside of the building. I just don't know how or why."
Vinyl siding fueled the flames that rose toward the second floor apartment. It was before 10 p.m. Saturday when the fire almost trapped two men in their apartments. Mr. Mominee said the resident of the upper apartment came home, turned on the air conditioning and took a shower.
He smelled smoke and opened a door leading to the outside stairway when he was faced with a wall of flames.
"It was just solid fire," Mr. Mominee said. "And it was moving fast. This could have been real bad."
The resident ran toward the front of the building, made his way to a lower roof where he was helped to safety. Another man inside an efficiency apartment was home and escaped after people pounded on his door to alert him.
Flames then spread to the building next door to the east where two other apartments were badly damaged. Smoke, which engulfed much of the neighborhood Saturday, also caused Broadway Market across the street to close its doors for the night.
Since the fire, Ms. Lankford said people have pitched in to help her clean up the shop and one lady even offered her garage for storage if needed. Ms. Lankford said she would like remain at the site, depending on insurance and if the building can be saved.
"I would love to continue the business," she said. "And I would love to move back in if possible."

ALBANY -- Through rain or thunder or dark of potential tornadoes, the 6th annual Albany Marathon must go on -- and so it did on Saturday, to the rhythm of 1,475 sets of wet and happy feet.
"We were all up and out there at 5:30 a.m., with the police department and keeping tabs on the weather," said Rachelle Beasley, director of the Albany Convention and Visitors Bureau. "We gave it the go-ahead at 7 o'clock, and as soon as the cannon fired it started raining."
Beasley said her team received constant weather updates Saturday from a local meteorologist to advise on heavy rain or lightning. At one point tornado sirens perked some interest, but even that wasn't enough to stop the run.
"We had 12 separate search-and-rescue teams ready to make sure everyone was all right," Beasley said. "And the (weather) cell across the river moved east and away from us."
Beasely said Albany City Manager James Taylor even had city transit buses standing by with drivers just in case they were needed to pick up runners.
According to Beasley nothing was spared in safety assurance or in catering to the needs of runners.
"These people came to run, and they had a lot riding on what we did for them here," she said. "Most had jobs waiting on Monday. To cancel would have been disastrous, and to postpone almost as bad. We just kicked off our shoes, rolled up our pants legs and kept on going."
According to Beasley, attendance at this year's marathon was even greater than for the race last year, despite the inclement weather. Beasley said there were 1,723 individuals registered to run, with 1,475 actually starting the race. A number of prospective athletes came intending to participate but may not have recovered sufficiently from previous training injuries to commit. While last year's registration figure was 1,691, Beasley said she knows this year's figure would have hit 2,000 without the forecast for rain.
"The decision to have the race on Saturday was nip and tuck," Beasley said. "But it was the right thing to do. If the event had been on Sunday, there would have been issues with the heat and humidity. I think a lot of runners prefer the rain."
According to Beasley, there were no major injuries or health situations beyond the expected blisters and one or two twisted ankles.
Beasley was pleased with the city's first marathon since she became bureau director, especially having managed the event under what she called "the most unfavorable conditions."
Despite sounding suspiciously as if she were coming down with a cold, Beasley said she would be meeting with her team within the next few days to analyze the event for its positives and negatives.
"Nothing is ever perfect the first time you do it," she said. "We'll all get together for a debriefing on what we did -- what went right or wrong -- and make a better plan for next year."

Just have to say it one more time!! A BIG Thank You to the workers and support staff who braved this weather your good spirits helped make running in the rain not quite so bad. IT was A Great day in Albany even with the bad weather.

Notts County were not forced to sell Lee Hughes for financial reasons
Posted: January 14, 2013|
NOTTS County were not forced to let big-earner Lee Hughes go because of their cash problems, insists boss Keith Curle.
Striker Hughes, 36, left Meadow Lane for Port Vale just 24 hours before chairman Ray Trew revealed the club is having to make cuts to claw back a £70,000 overspend on wages or risk sanctions from the Football League.
But Curle says the two are not connected – and that Hughes wanted to go because he will earn a deal for next season if he fires Vale to promotion into League One, while the Magpies were not going to offer him a new contract at the end of this season.
Hughes scored on his debut for the Valiants on Saturday as Notts' league game at Portsmouth was called off two hours before kick-off because of a waterlogged pitch.
"Lee came to see me and told me what Port Vale had offered him and he said it was the right time for him to move because he has the opportunity to play more games and get another year's contract," said Curle.
"He said he wanted to leave and he went with our best wishes because he has been a fantastic servant to the club.
"When a player makes their mind up they want to go you have got to let them go.
"It's very difficult to sit there and say 'no' you've got to stay.
"If it had been a 24-year-old striker that was scoring a lot of goals, it would have been different, but Lee's 36.
"It was not a financial situation. It was purely based on Lee wanting to make a career move."
Hughes' exit has left Notts with just two strikers, in Yoann Arquin and Enoch Showunmi, until Curle can bolster his frontline.
And he says Showunmi is eager to be given a chance, having only started one league game all season.
"Enoch is chomping at the bit to get this chance and he's got ability – he's just got to bring it all together and show it," he said.

Helium effects are among the most critical subjects in fusion materials research. A major task in the study of He effects is to understand how He interacts with irradiation-induced and/or inherent defects and how the interactions govern the subsequent microstructural evolution. Thermal desorption spectrometry (TDS) provides an appropriate platform for both experimentally probing the kinetics and energetics of He-defect interactions and computationally validating the parameterization of rate theory models. In this paper we present preliminary results on the spatially dependent rate theory modeling of TDS of He-implanted single crystalline iron under the same conditions as explored in our recent experiments. Included in the present model are previously reported migration energies for self-interstitial-atom (SIA), di-SIA and interstitial He from ab initio calculations, and binding energies of HexVy, Vm and In clusters from thermodynamic calculations or ab initio based extrapolations. With a small amount of parameter optimization, several major features observed in the experimental TDS spectra have been reasonably reproduced by the model, while further and more complete validation through both experiments and computation remains to be carried out.

Downtown Tulsa's Central Library closed until Friday after bed bug discovery
TULSA - Tulsa library officials announced Wednesday downtown's Central Library will remain closed after bed bugs were discovered on the third floor.
The library will be shut down until 9 a.m. Friday, officials said.
The insects were discovered Tuesday after a visitor bitten around lunch time alerted library staff.
For the second consecutive day, bed bugs forced Tulsa's downtown library to keep out the public Wednesday as a bed bug-sniffing Beagle sniffed her way through the building.
"Ms. Liberty Belle" wasn't done patrolling all four floors by the afternoon, forcing library officials to make the announcement.
Exterminators went through all the furniture and nearly every inch of the 135,000 square foot building, and found the bed bugs had infested a 1,000 square foot portion of the library.
Officials said the library will "be thoroughly treated" Thursday.

What can I say. Sue and Mark have a wonderful place. Beautiful view of the mountains, in a country setting. The rooms are HUGE and well set up. Breakfast is great. I have been there several times and I can tell you that they make me feel like family every time.

I stayed at the Fox Hill Bed & Breakfast for 3 nights. It was extremely clean and nicely furnished. The décor was beautiful. It is nicely located in the country, where it is quiet and it is easy to drive to town. The room had a private bathroom and a small refrigerator with drinks inside. The breakfast each morning was original and delicious. The view from the room was magnificent.

My girlfriend and I spent two nights here in the fall. I'll start by saying that the hosts are absolutely wonderful. Mark and Sue are gracious, friendly, attentive, and thoughtful. They keep the rooms are as clean as any I've ever enjoyed. The grounds are gorgeous and well-maintained. The amenities were exactly as promised on their website. Breakfasts were above and beyond what we expected. You would pay a lot of money at a 5 star restaurant to eat so well. The location is perfect for a weekend getaway - close to tourist attractions, but far enough from the city to see an absolutely beautiful starscape on clear nights. If you're looking for a place to unplug for a few days and enjoy some fresh air, Fox Hill is the place.

Fox Hill was our first B&B that we stayed in and we could not have been more pleased with the room, service and the delicious breakfast that was served. The owners were wonderful people and they made you feel right at home. I was very excited and happy that we could bring our two dogs with us because they do travel everywhere with us. They were very accommodating to all of us. We would highly recommend Fox Hill to anyone that is interested in having a relaxing and fun weekend.

We recently had an overnight stay in the Cornwall room at Fox Hill. Mark and Sue were so friendly and answered questions before we could even think of them. The room was very spacious and immaculate. We took a walk over the grounds and they are lovely. Even our cockapoo felt at home and appreciated being thought of with his own complimentary treat left in our room!

I wish I would have stayed two nights but I had to get back to reality....For someone whos never been to a B&B I was amazed it was like going on vacation to my moms house...warm cozy and just relaxing, I have to thank Mark and Sue for making me feel so at home from the brownie bites and personal "welcome to Foxhill" card to the amazing breakfast on Sunday morning ... best nights sleep I've had in months...I cant wait to go back and continue my adventure out there. Definetly plenty of things to do in the area make sure to check the town calendar for special events...

My husband and I came here fit a few days and loved it. It was so peaceful and beautiful. Our hosts were lovely and very personable. We both agree this is one of the best B & B's we have ever stayed at. Food was fantastic and different.

Having stayed at B&Bs from Vermont to North Carolina to Florida, we have a lot to make comparisons. Fox Hill is a terrific place to relax and enjoy a beautiful inn, wonderful hosts, amazing surroundings, and of course, a great breakfast. There is plenty to see and do close by. Lexington is a short drive and offers antiques, art galleries, fine dining, and much more. Outdoor activities will keep you busy and working up an appitite for dinner.

We enoyed our time here. The room was large, but incredibly cozy with tasteful decoration and a cheery fireplace. Views were amazing to include a beautiful sunset and mountains all around. We enjoyed the animals, which were very friendly, and Mark made an excellent breakfast both mornings . Highly recommended.

We chose this b&b for our 25th anniversary because of the location and the beautiful grounds. It was more than we expected! The room is more elegant than the pictures on the web site, yet not stuffy or "fru-fur". the views from our room were stunning. We stayed on the grounds most of one day just enjoying a private grassy spot near a babbling brook reading and sunning. Mark and Sue great hosts- very helpful and available. We loved the private deck and entrance. We will definitely return!

Enterprise Florida officials tour Tradition Studios to better market it to businesses
TRADITION — Enterprise Florida's business development director just shook his head in awe at the high-tech features he saw Friday in the Tradition Studios executive office of former Digital Domain Media Group CEO John Textor.
With the flip of a switch, the windows that overlook the lobby go from transparent to frosted glass for privacy in the expansive office with an en-suite bathroom. The executive boardroom is equipped with flat-screen TVs and whiteboard walls for capturing ideas with dry-erase markers.
"Wow," was all business development director Matthew Lowell could mouth.
"Very impressive," was how Robert Sitterly, Enterprise Florida's business development vice president, described the 115,000-square-foot building that five agency officials toured to help market it. City Manager Greg Oravec and St. Lucie County Economic Development President Larry Pelton also were part of the tour of the studio built and furnished with local incentive dollars.
Enterprise Florida officials, who represent a public-private economic development arm of the state to create jobs and help state businesses grow and expand, also toured other Tradition businesses to identify prospective companies that might be interested in moving into the animation movie studio.
"I think it's a building that will be rather easy to market nationwide," Sitterly said. "It will take the right tenant to move in. If the tenant needs to retrofit, it appears it can be done and (the building) can work for a number of different uses."
Sitterly said without marketing the building it's hard to say what sort of tenants would be interested in the facility, which sits on 15 acres. But he said the agency should be able to tout it successfully given the studio's large size, fiber-optic cabling and state-of-the-art computer data center.
Port St. Lucie Councilwoman Michelle Berger has mentioned the building could be used to house a culinary school, film school or even a medical service company.
Pelton, who was part of the local team to help bring Digital Domain to Port St. Lucie, said the commercial market has been active with information technology, medical services and health service companies looking for facilities. He said the building could probably be occupied by multiple tenants, but he has been working with Enterprise Florida to explore the possibility of getting another production studio to occupy the space.
Digital Domain's director of studio operations Ron Martin, who served as tour guide Friday, said he'd like to see the building filled with the animators, directors and producers who were working on "The Legend of Tembo", the studio's first animated feature. It now remains to be seen whether the film, which tells the story of an African elephant who tries to return home after he is captured and forced to become a battle animal in India, will ever hit the big screen after Digital Domain declared bankruptcy Sept. 11.
"I would love to see everyone get their jobs back and get back to making the movies," said Martin, one of the last remaining employees after the company laid off 346 people Sept. 7. "(The studio) was facilitating the creation of all the amazing productions we were starting."
Remnants of the "Tembo" project remain tacked on numerous storyboards either left strewed on the floor or hanging inside various executive offices and editing suites.
Martin shared some details of the project along with how employees would use the different rooms and features throughout the studio. Highlights of the tour included the 138-seat 3D-equipped main screening room, as well as one of two smaller theatres, animators would use to review their work.
Outside, Martin showed off the studio's two soccer fields and outdoor movie theater where the company would put on movies by projecting it on the side of the building.
"The idea was to build a world-class facility to attract world-class talent," said Martin, who collaborated with Textor, audio and visual engineers, directors and producers from Los Angeles to help design the high-tech building.
Securing a tenant for the city-owned facility is necessary otherwise the city could be on the hook for an estimated $3.8 million annual lease payment. Digital Domain Media Group was paying the city lease payments to cover the $39.9 million in bonds the city used to construct the building. The city also gave the company roughly $7.8 million as part of a $10 million economic development grant to create at least 500 jobs.
The company's last lease payment is current until January.
Martin said it's important for the community to see the studio come to life again.
"Whether it opens as another animation studio or if it opens as a school or a game studio ... it's a creative space that I believe when the right person sees they will realize just how fantastic it is," Martin said.

I view jewelry as a sculpture that represents the wearer's personality and culture. Through jewelry design, I express my imagination while combining my passion for sculpture and industrial design. Drawing creative inspiration from natural and organic shapes, my aim is to create clean, elegant designs that focus on bringing out the intrinsic beauty of gem stones. I enjoy the complete development process, from concept to sketch, 3D modelling and finally to the production.

First Date Conversation Topics
First Date Conversation Topics
Approaching a woman to ask her out is one of the most intimidating things that a man will ever do. However for a lot of men the actual date can be even more intimidating. Carrying on a conversation with new people, especially women, is not something that all men are comfortable with. If your going to be successful with women you are going to have to be able to talk to them.
The best way to carry on a conversation with a woman is to get them to talk about themselves. Most people like to talk about themselves, so give her an opportunity to do just that. Ask her a lot of open ended questions that allow her to tell you about herself. The important thing is to avoid questions that can be answered with one word. You want to give her a chance to talk. You can get her talking by asking her about work or school. You can also ask her what her ambitions and goals are. These are the kind of open ended questions that will require her to talk. They also give you the chance to ask follow up questions. Another good way to get her to talk is to ask her questions that require her to share her opinion. When your on a date with a woman you want to show her that you are interested in her. The best way to do this is to ask her questions about herself. Really you should be genuinely interested in what she has to say, if not there's probably not much of a future with her. You will be more attractive to her if you show her that your are genuinely interested in her. You can't just get her to talk about herself all night. At some point you are going to have to contribute something about yourself to the conversation. She is going to want to get to know you so you are going to have to tell her something about yourself. A lot of guys when they get nervous start talking too much, usually bragging about themselves. This is something you need to avoid. You don't want to dominate the conversation, you want it to be an equal amount of give and take. Just keep in mind that she may be just as uncomfortable as you are at carrying on a conversation. A lot of men find it difficult to carry on a conversation with a woman when they are on a first date. Some people are just naturals at talking with people that they don't know very well, but a lot of people are uncomfortable with this. If you are one of those men that finds it difficult to carry on a conversation with a woman your best bet is to get her to talk about herself.

Whenever I have a vacant position, I try to fill it quickly to avoid overloading my other employees. However, my new hires never last long, and soon I'm left with another vacancy and a new weakness in my staff. What am I doing wrong?
Alice says:
Assuming that these folks are quitting on you — you're not firing them — I would start by looking for inconsistencies in your presentation of the job or organization during the interview process. It sounds like the job applicant expects one thing, then experiences something different once he or she is hired. Honestly, the discrepancy must be pretty shocking to cause them to quit so quickly.
SEE ALSO: How to find the root cause of all your bad decisions
Here are some areas to evaluate:
- How ar e you describing work hours and locations? Is the applicant promised flexibility in the interview — like the opportunity to telecommute, variable work hours, or negotiable start and end times — that is denied once they start work? This could be a real showstopper for some employees.
- How are you describing the work culture? If someone is expecting entrepreneurial, and finds a rigid bureaucracy, your office will feel like a prison. Show prospective employees your policy and procedures manual during the interview, so that they can see the degree of process controls.
- How are you describing the job? Is your applicant hearing about self-directed, team-based work during the interview, but finding hostile co-workers instead? If your onboarding process consists of "here's your cube, now get to work," you may want to add a social dimension to make your new hire feel welcome.

Properly print Office docs with Office Library templates
How to get around the Office Library template bug that doesn't let you print the Office documents correctly.
Here's how to print a document only once, when you are using the Office Library template.

The Office Library template has a bug (v5 and v6) that doesn't correctly print Office documents. Due to this bug, if you print a Word or Excel document, the document will be printed twice. This bug has been reported to Lotus development, but it hasn't been solved yet.
In order to solve this problem you can create a new action named "Print Document" in each form: (Paintbrush document, Word document, ExcelWorksheet document, PowerPoint document) with the following code.
Two notes:
- This "Print Action" runs for Office documents and Notes documents. You can use it as a shared action, and use the same action for all documents (Notes and Office).
- It is necessary before printing a Office document that you save the document. In order to prevent errors, the action would be hidden for new documents (Hide when -> @IsNewDoc)

Yes, if only because you can always switch later. Well-written applications

Augmented Reality Part 3
Wonder what this means for gaming?
Check this article out and the video is below. I can't wait!
Wonder what this means for gaming?
Check this article out and the video is below. I can't wait!
My earlier post went over some possibilities with Augmented Reality, now look what the Netherlands are doing with cell phones to take the first step in creating this new reality!
I realized today as I tried to sort out my Kindle books that there is no software application to do this with. Amazon or someone needs to make this as it would be nice to have something that can sort and show me my digital books (as well as load them on my Kindle) and allow me to load my actual books so I can see my library.
It can't be too hard to make something that does this for the Kindle, I know there is stuff out there to scan in my books and handle all that.
I didn't have the best trip home, as best I can tell some Subway I ate was no good and ended up in Atlanta laying on the floor for 12 hours with stomach cramps and hugging the toliet. After 12 hours of that I finally got a few hours of sleep and woke up weak but not dieing. Which was good as I had another two days of driving to do and this only added one extra day to the drive home.
I spent the next day going to the Atlanta Aquarium which is one of the best in the country! I really liked it but I still think the one in Thailand was better in number of exhibits, the Georgia one just had lots of really really big areas. It was still an awesome place and I highly recommend it, just check out the photos to see how big the place is. I believe they currently hold the record for the largest tank and they have a 9 foot Manta Ray that will grow to 27 feet.
I'm going to call this one early, the funniest movie of 2009 is The Hangover, go watch it and be sure to check the trailer out! I laughed the entire time… which was dangerous as apparently a medium soda at a movie theater means 72oz, aka a soda swimming pool.
I also give Up best animation this year! Great story and I think it might actually be my third or fourth favorite movie from Pixar. Right after Monsters Inc, Nemo, and The Incredibles.
This is bwb's personal blog so he can spout random nonsensical bullshit. Plus family and friends can track my life as a digital nomad and what I am doing.
I am a pretty simple. I love Mangos. I love the beach, although mostly at sunset as I'm a ginger. I strongly believe the most desirable women in the world is Meg Ryan, followed closely by StarBuck of BSG. Some people find this questionable but I feel sad for them. I love to travel, eat exotic food, read, and use my imagination. I love creating and developing ideas into businesses, understanding how businesses work, and building cool stuff. And, I am married to an amazing woman who helps make all this possible :)!

The Final Practice.
I hate to get into a whole membership has its privileges thing… But I got a text message the other day reminding me I had been invited to atten the final rehearsal of a flute duet. It was the _Duets on American Motifs_ by Franz Doppler performed by Julie Majkowski and Tim Anderson, accompanied by Judy Brist on piano. The music was sweet and recognizable and I thought very well performed. It made a great break for a Saturday afternoon.
Lindsey Stirling at Northrup Auditorium
On June 4th the beautiful Northrup auditorium played host to rock violinist and independent artist Lindsey Stirling. I confess, other than her cover of the Imagine Dragon's song, _Radioactive_, the one she did with Pentatonix, I hadn't heard that much. So the music was a bit of a surprise. A happy one. I loved it. All of it. Lindsey also knows and understands what makes up entertainment. All making for an excellent concert and a great date night for The Wife and I.
Jenny & The Jets at Bracket Bar
It's tough to review a band like this. Where so much depends on the vocals and yet the vocals may vary. I think though it is such a cool concept. I have been to karaoke shows before mostly as the guest of people who think they can sing. Reading a teleprompter to canned music. I mostly found those situations annoying but this was really different. Instead, of a backing track, Jenny & the Jets is live band karaoke. Instead of being on stage solo, when you have the mic in your hand, you have the whole band behind you. Very cool concept, very cool indeed.
Shawshank Redemption at Shaws Bar
So The Wife was in St. Paul on a Friday night. She was there to pick me up and bring me back home. Home to a place where I get to live out fully half of my life, all in the confines of two days. But somewhere, in between those two lives, we managed to wedge in just a small slice of our own this night. And what we did with that time …Well, after dinner at Gandhi Mahal (outstanding!) near Lake St. and 27th Ave. And a sunset with friends on their new deck… It was Shaw's Bar in Nordeast Minneapolis for Blues.

There are two different game modes; Classic or Penalty Shootout. In classic you swipe your finger across the bottom of your screen and as a barrage of balls roll onto the field. There is one black and white soccer ball, and your team's color against the opposing teams color. Your onslaught of balls will try to knock the main ball into the opposite goalpost, winning you a point. The other team will be doing the same thing, allowing for at least 30 possible balls to be on the field at any one time, it is total chaos. There are three different levels of difficulty for single player Classic mode, Slow 'n' Easy, Normal and RAMPage!
In Penalty Shootout, the main ball gets shot at your goalpost and you get one ball at a time to try to stop it from making it in. The key to this game is timing. If you block too soon, you may send the ball rebounding back into your goalpost. If you block too late, you may miss it altogether.
Overall, this game is action packed and exciting. You'll never get sick of the gameplay because every game is a challenge. You can play in two player mode and watch your friend squirm as you score points due to their weak skills. At only $2.99, RAMPage Soccer is priced just right.
