JOHOR BARU: A woman has accused a "Datuk" of harassing her after their 12-year affair ended.
Khoo Hwei Peng, 29, said they had met at a nightclub when she was 18 and they began a relationship even though the man was already married.
"Things were going well. He even bought a condominium and a Mercedes Benz and put them under my name," she said.
However, the affair started to turn sour last year after he accumulated thousands of ringgit in debt due to his gambling habit.
Although the man had problems, he still asked her to run away with him, she claimed.
"I turned him down numerous times. In February, I suggested a break-up but he refused," she said, adding that she then moved out of the condominium and into her mother's house in Taman Nusa Bestari.
Speaking at a press conference organised by Gelang Patah MCA yesterday, Khoo said the man then started to threaten her, saying he would expose semi-nude photos of her online.
"He also offered me RM250,000 in exchange of the condominium and I eventually agreed because I did not want the matter to drag on," she said, adding that she and her former lover approached the MCA Public Service and Complaints Bureau head Datuk Seri Michael Chong to sort out the matter legally.
"While waiting for our lawyers to draft out the documents, my ex-boyfriend brought nine men to my mother's house on April 6 and bashed up my mother's boyfriend," she said.
Gelang Patah MCA division chief Jason Teoh hoped that the police would step in and handle the matter as Khoo was afraid for her life and the safety of her family members.
Meanwhile, Nusajaya deputy OCPD Deputy Supt Razak Md Said confirmed investigations were ongoing, adding that police were looking into all the allegations.
"The case is being investigated under Section 325 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing grievous hurt and Section 507 for criminal intimidation," he said.

Game one of the Los Angeles Kings-St. Louis Blues game had been a fast-paced, close-checking game and it seemed as though the Blues would win. The Kings pulled their goalie and Jason Williams scored with 31.4 seconds left to tie the game. In overtime the Kings controlled the play and had plenty of chances that Blues goalie Brian Elliott kept out. The Kings were on the power play late in the 1st overtime when Jonathan Quick went back to play the puck and brutally misplayed it. His bank shot off the boards went right to Alex Steen and in front of his net and Steen had to do nothing except tap it in. Steen scored both of the Blues goals in their 2-1 win. Unfortunately for Quick, his masterful performance up until the miscue will be completely forgotten. His 40 saves will take a backseat to the fact that this play was purely awful. The Blues now hold a 1-0 lead over the defending Stanley Cup Champions. [YouTube]

Antarctica Collection

Source: Museum Victoria
Museum Victoria holds a significant collection of items relating to the history of Antarctic exploration. These items are mostly images, items of clothing, scientific instruments, artefacts relating to expeditioners' entertainments, philatelic items from Antarctica and medals and other awards. They range through the entire history of Antarctic exploration from early maritime exploration of Antarctica through the Heroic Era of Antarctic exploration to the modern era of scientific exploration and Antarctic tourism.
The main collection groups are:
Phillip Law Collection: Phillip Garth Law (1912-2010) led the Australian exploration of Antarctica for 17 years as Director of the Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition (ANARE). During this period ANARE operated from Melbourne. Following his retirement in 1966, Law actively promoted Antarctic heritage and compiled an extensive historical collection relating to Antarctic exploration and research. The Phillip Law Collection of over 1400 items, includes photos, clothing, philatelic covers, banners and plaques - mostly items used by, or presented to Dr Law.
George Rayner Collection: Rayner was a British photographer and biologist based at the research station at Grytviken in the Falkland Islands from around 1928 to 1939. He took part in a number of sub-Antarctic voyages as a member of the scientific staff of the Discovery II research vessel. The primary focus of his research was to establish the seasonal migration patterns of whales. Discovery II and Rayner also participated in the rescue of American aviator Lincoln Ellsworth in 1935-36. Rayner was also an avid photographer of his sub-Antarctic environment. The collection includes photos, clothing, camera and trunk.
The Antarctic Collection also includes items from earlier expeditions including those of Robert Scott (1901-1904), Ernest Shackleton (1907-09 and 1914-17) and Douglas Mawson (1911-1914 and 1929-1931). It includes clothing from Scott's Discovery expedition, an ice sledge used by Bertram Armytage on Shackleton's Nimrod expedition and meteorological equipment from the Ross Sea party of Shackleton's Trans-Antarctic Expedition. There is also material from modern expeditions to Antarctica, Antarctic tourism and environmental campaigns relating to Antarctica.

Staff Picks: The Pantry Staples We Can't Live Without
These are the kitchen staples we love best, the secret weapons we keep on our shelves no matter what, because there's lot you can do with a bottle of clam juice. More

What's your night cheese? You know, the cheese you snack on before bed, or wake up in the middle of the night craving—the cheese you love so much you throw shade at whomever so much glances at it on a cheese plate? We asked ourselves that very question and came up with answers high and low—stinky, fudgy, sharp, and unapologetically trashy. Meet our spirit cheeses. More
As 2014 draws to a close, we've been reflecting on the meals that stood out most—the bites that we just can't stop thinking about. More
This past month, we kept sipping the refreshing drinks of summer: cherry-lime rickeys, margaritas, and crisp, thirst-quenching beers. But we also declared it time to break out the bourbon and get started with our fall drinkin'. More
This September we traveled for stellar lamb shawarma, juicy smoked meat sandwiches, and plates and plates of tacos. At work, we ate lox and bluefish and whitefish, plus a stellar assortment of favorite dishes for Italian-American week. (Tough gig, but someone's gotta take a fourth helping of baked ziti!) More
Every month—heck, almost every day—we make an effort to go out and shove desserts into our faces in an effort to find the best out there. Sometimes our favorites appear at a regular ol' diner, sometimes at a scoop shop or old-school bakery, and other times, they're worth a visit to a fancy restaurant. More
We're suckers for well made pastry, for beautiful fruit, and for pretty much anything dipped in chocolate. Here are the desserts we tried this month that we just can't stop thinking about. More
This month we went off-menu at Mister Softee (if you haven't yet tried asking for them to add a fresh banana to your vanilla shake, you're welcome), sampled vibrant magenta prickly pear wine, and cut through the late-summer heat with Suze, a tasty French apéritif. More
What's in a month of Serious Eating? A juicy burger, obviously, and some well-balanced pizza. A little high falutin' foie gras, a little friendly mac & cheese. Some steak, a bowl of incredible khao soi, and a couple racks of ribs. Tongue and bone marrow and takoyaki. More
Frozen beverages are our best friends these days. Humidity: not so much. Gin and mint and ice? Oh, yeah. Rum? Give it to us in slushie form. More
When Serious Eaters travel, we tend to see the journey as a challenge of the appetite, sometimes packing in extra meals just to make sure we squeeze every delicious bite out of a trip to Thailand or Montreal or Italy. Sure, there are tourist attractions to visit, but we're really in it for the khao soi, the foie gras sandwiches, and the awesome stewed tripe. More
This month, we ate fresh-caught fluke (estimated time from ocean to pan: 20 minutes), grilled up some steak for Father's Day, and upgraded our BLTs with the addition of creamy burrata. More
The Serious Eats team downed some fantastic drinks in June, including frozen Negroni slushies, raw milk fresh from the farm, sparkling summery cocktails, and more. More
This month we (OK, Jamie) reveled in NYC's first Dairy Queen and we rewarded ourselves after running a half-marathon (yeah, OK, that was just Paul). But the rest of us ate good sweets too! Check 'em all out. More
This month, Carrie went to Mexico, Jamie went to Philly, and Kenji went to Japan by way of Coney Island, so you know our best bites are gonna be interesting. More
This month, we tasted sherry straight from the barrel in Spain, found an awesome milkshake, discovered a new favorite amaro, sipped an great Mexican craft beer, and started experimenting with a clever wine-saving tool. More
Kenji experiences the magic of Chicago pizza, Maggie goes renegade with two best bites, Jamie cooked a Passover Seder for 17 people, and more of the best things we ate this month. More
From decadent sundaes to a doughnut standby, check out all our favorite sweets from April. More
We have to hand it to them; when it comes to ice cream with mix-ins, Ben & Jerry's is hard to beat. And because we like to dream big at SE* we asked ourselves, if you could have B&J's create any flavor you wanted, what would it be? And no, the realities of science need not apply. More
Every month the Serious Eats crew scouts out the best stuff to drink: newly released beers, cool new cocktails, spirits you should know about, and favorite recipes for refreshing non-alcoholic drinks. Here are the sips we're most excited to share. More


text: Lyrics from 7ths and 3rdsIn many circles, it's common thought that 'With Trumpets Flaring', the debut full length from Gregory Pepper and His Problems, was one of the most slept on records of 2009. In fact, his name keeps popping up alongside some pretty well-respected names. From touring with Born Ruffians and Smoking Popes, to collaborating with outsider hip hop artists Awol One and Factor, Gregory Pepper has now grabbed the attention of Islands, who hand-picked him to open a string of tour dates this July. At last, Pepper will have another stage for even more people to experience his repertoire of anthems of confusion and ambivalence, which range from punkish-indie-rock to polished-baroque-pop. Gregory Pepper and His Problems is a moniker used by the 26-year-old musician and visual artist who still treads shallow water in his hometown of Guelph, Ontario.

Performance Analysis of Nondirected Ir Wireless Channel in Indoor Environment Using Statistical Distribution
Date Added: May 2012
Format: PDF
The future short range wireless communication in an indoor environment includes the non-directed InfraRed (IR) Wireless communication. It is essential since there is a tremendous growth of bigger residential and commercial complexes. Also, now-a-days use of portable devices such as LAPTOP, PDA, etc. has been increased and the connectivity to such devices is the must without any interruption. In indoor environment both the transmitter and receiver are located inside the room. An empty rectangular is considered for the simulation purpose. The major interest in this simulation deals with the diffuse configuration (Non-directed Non-LOS) of the transmitter and the receiver.

Following an alleged Facebook war of words about "Sarah Palin's Alaska," where Palin's 16-year-old daughter, Willow, allegedly unleashed a slew of homophobic remarks on what appeared to be her account – sister Bristol has apologized on both of their behalves.
According to TMZ, Willow sounded off on Facebook after the Palin family's TLC show was criticized following its Sunday debut.
"Haha your so gay. I have no idea who you are, But what I've seen pictures of, your disgusting … My sister had a kid and is still hot," Willow allegedly wrote on another Facebook user's wall after he took aim at the reality series.
Willow allegedly followed that with another alleged comment, "Tre stfu. Your such a f**got."
Her sister and "Dancing with the Stars" hopeful also joined the heated argument on Facebook message boards, allegedly writing, "You're running your mouth just to talk s***," and "You'll be as successful as my baby daddy, And actually I do work my ass off. I've been a single mom for the last two years."
"Willow and I shouldn't have reacted to negative comments about our family. We apologize," Bristol later wrote on her Facebook account.
Bristol followed that message with a message of thanks to her supporters.
"On a nicer note, thank you for supporting the great competition in Dancing with the Stars!… Thank you supporters who continue to support. The haters are already pulling out all the stops this week to destroy," she continued in two more Facebook posts.
According to TMZ, Willow deleted her Facebook account after the alleged quarrel.
A rep for TLC was not immediately available for comment when contacted by Access Hollywood.

My 17 month old ds has baby bottle tooth decay. I took him to dentist today. I have appt scheduled for monday for them to put him to sleep and removedĀthe decay and cap them, or possibly remove his front teeth. He still at his age drinks multiple bottles at night, Waking every couple hrs all night long and cries til I give him a bottle! Its all my fault, I could have prevented this from happening. Among other things, he wont eat hardly anything! He will only eat baby food that is a fruit or cereal mix, and he eats crackers, rice, pasta bread. He will not eat meat, fruit, veggies, nothing! Not even cheese or peanut butter! I offer him different foods every day. I just cant believe that at 17 months he doesnt eat much. I have kept him on his soy formula for this reason. Then the fact that he wakes every 2 hrs all night at 17 months is off the wall too. He is my 4th child, but my other 3 are much older. I cant help but feel that Ive done something wrong here.Ā Does anyone have ANY advice on any of the things Ive mentioned here??? I am going to try to get him off the bottle this weekend starting tonight, as monday morning is his appt and they are putting him to sleep at 10am, and said he cant have anything to eat or drink after 2 am. I dont know how Im going to do this but it has to be done. Any advice?? thanks.....
My 17 month old ds has baby bottle tooth decay! :(

I didnt deal with baby bottle decay but I have a very picky eater who was on bottles and forumula until he was 23 moths old. With him its a medical problem so we didnt fight him to much.
My older son was alot like your son in wanting bottles every couple hours when he was a baby. he was talking 3 a night until he was 15 month old. I completly took away his bottle and if I gave him anything I gave him a sippy cup of water at bedtime. During the day he got milk and juice as well. My guess with the food, if you take his bottle away he will probally be more hungrey cause he is not getting those extra calories from the bottle. You just have to keep offering like you are doing. You will most likely have to deal with screaming when you take the bottle away but it usually will not last much more then a week if even that long. Good luck

I'm so sorry and I know you feel badly. Def stop the night bottles - maybe substitute something else instead - I know I have fed my LO some fruit puree mixed w/ wheat or oatmeal at 2am to avoid giving a bottle.
Also, my DS is going to occupational therapy for his eating issues -- won't eat certain things, has adversion to certain textures etc - this stems from the time he spent in the hospital as an infant but I know another mom who had a healthy baby who is having to do the same thing. Just wondering if there is a bigger issue than just a picky kid. What does your pedi say?
Also how many naps a day? Perhaps cut down on day sleeping to increase night sleeping.
Good luck on Monday!
pp made a good point Brayden aslo recieve therapy for his feeding issues. His steam form Sensory processind disorder. Might be something to think about haveing him evaluated for feeding therapy if it continues

My MDD had baby bottle decay...she lost her top front 4 teeth and her bottom front four were capped. It was awful┬Ā┬Āand I felt soooo bad. It wasn't all my fault but I'm sure there were things I could have done different. She also has acid reflux and she would wake up fussing and throwing a fit in the middle of the night. The only thing that would get her back to sleep was a bottle. And to make matters worse, she would hiold the last drink in her mouth for a long time after she was done with the bottle....I didn't know that until she was a little older and I observed her. Now, my YDD also has acid reflux, but she is medicated way better b/c I know more about it and she isn't waking up and demanding a bottle anymore. She is 14 months old. It's a possibility that he may have acid reflux, sometimes the nighttime stuff is all that bothers them. My youngest 2 daughters have had it the worst and they are so much pickier eaters than my oldest (she had a mild case).
Wish I had better advice, but this is just what happened in my life in case it helps any. Thankfully, they are baby teeth and not the permanent ones. Good luck!!!!

Get a second opinion. I have had cavities and had to have one of MY top molars taken out!! I brush and floss everyday!! My DH used to chew and doesn't brush his teeth everyday....he NEVER gets cavities!!! Genetics play a big part in it. So it may not be all the bottles fault?┬Ā
Start watering down the bottles...give him half and half and then 25-75 until you are 100% water!! I did this with my LO and it worked. Once he is used to water you should be able to get rid of the bottle all together and just use a sippy of water or a straw cup! GL!
Ask no questions, hear no lies! ~ I love that movie!!
Mom to Leah GraceĀ08/24/2008 andĀJacobĀAdamĀ04/03/2011 (my baby boy is here!!!)
WHen you stop the night time bottles, he'll eat more during the day.┬Ā When children fill up on milk/formula all night long they aren't hungry during the day.
Stop the bottles today, comfort him when he wakes but be firm.┬Ā (Throw all the bottles in the trash so you don't cave and give him one).
Set mealtimes and feed him a variety of healthy foods.┬Ā Don't bribe or force, just set the healthy foods on the tray in front of him while you all eat, when mealtime is over, clean up and move on.┬Ā Same with snack times - set up a morning snack and afternoon snack at his high chair, not walking around with a bag of goldfish.┬Ā Healthy snacks and lots of variety.┬Ā
HTH Jennifer
Believe me, if he's hungry enough, he'll eat. If he throws a tantrum do not give in and give him something else. If you do, then you are teaching him that he is in control. Just try to give him praise and encouragement when trying different foods but do not give him a snack or alternate if he won't eat what is presented. That will set a bad expectation for later on. It will be hard but remember you have to try and keep the bigger picture in mind. You are in control. Also do not leave anything but water in the crib but I'm sure you've already figured that part out. Good luck!
Oh yeah and STOP feeding your kid at night! It is unnecessary by the time they are 6 mo old.

Yesterday, I wrote about three of my favorite ways to fail at life and at work. If you're a career woman of a certain age, you're pretty likely to know how to do both because, as my 88 year old mother says, always sighing, "it's a long life."
Tip # 1 – Follow Success
Not long ago, I joined the 34,000+ LinkedIn Connect Professional Women's Network because I noticed that my ForbesWoman editor Caroline Howard was a member. Because I don't blog to hear the sound of my own voice, I try to emulate Caroline and a few other terrific women's business bloggers because they write posts that generate readership. And I want to be read.
Susannah Breslin is another of my favorite ForbesWoman bloggers whose posts typically generate tens of thousands of "hits." Just last week, I picked up the telephone to ask Susannah how she does it. Ever generous, she not only told me, she told everyone else who reads her rockin' blog – Pink Slipped.
How to Get People to Click on Your Links.
So that's my first tip for being fifty and out of work. Follow people who are successful. Reach out to them. Ask for help.
Tip #2 – Network Online
Someone posed this question to the LinkedIn Connect Professional Women's Network three months ago.
Laid Off after over 20 years in marketing. Looking to reinvent myself at 52. How and what are others doing it?
1,249 women have answered Rebecca's inquiry about unemployment and re-invention over fifty. More than twelve hundred individual pieces of advice, mostly from women who have been exactly where "Rebeccca" has been.
This is the power of online networking. If you're not using it, you're leaving opportunity on the ground and money on the table.
Tip #3 – Help Other Women
There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women. Madeline Albright.
I have a friend who puts this quote at the bottom of all her emails because she wants to remind women to help one another. This friend – we'll call her Sarah – is one of the most successful career reinvention women I know.
Sarah doesn't just quote Madeline Albright, she walks her talk, investing her energy, time and wisdom powerfully networking with other women. How do you powerfully network with other women? You do them favors and they do favors back.
It's that simple.
Help each other.
Tip # 4 Believe in Yourself and Then Do It!
I know this sounds corny, but here's some advice from one of the women who answered Rebecca's question.
I used to work in the legal field but now am a partner in business (hardware!) with my husband. I also teach belly dance and recently attained certification as a fitness trainer and am starting my own fitness business. Just ask yourself: if you knew you would NOT fail and funds weren't a concern what would you do?
As Goethe wrote, "whatever you do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it."
I had this quote on my PeeChee folder in high school! It took me a lifetime to live it.
Tip #5 Fight Like Mad Against Obsolescence
Here's a tip for Rebecca from a woman still in her thirties.
In 2003 I left my advertising career to be a stay-at-home mom. . . Then in 2010 my husband was laid off and unable to find a job, so I went back to work in a corporate marketing department. Two weeks after starting the job the company merged with a competitor and now I'm faced with an inevitable layoff of my own. I want to get back into marketing and advertising but I've been away for the digital marketing and social media revolution. So, I'm reading everything I can get my hands on, took a course in digital project management, and getting more and more active on social networking sites. I'm also networking and interviewing like crazy. At 38 years old I am fighting like mad against obsolescence!

serves a purpose
happymom from Idaho – Verified Buyer
It was a pain to have to glue so many pieces. It was cheaper in quality than we expected and the drawers stick a little. Bottom drawer doesn't seem to sit quite right. It was the only thing we could find that would fit just right between our pedestal sinks at our rental and we didn't want to spend a ton of money. Wish it was a little nicer but it will work.
Don't waste your money
sharonartist from Santa Cruz, CA
This should be called a "kit" because basically I had to assemble the entire thing and glue all the flat pieces together — and they don't send enough glue. The drawer glides are really hokey. The whole thing is pretty flimsy. I would have sent it back when I first saw it, but my husband had already glued some of it together, so now I'm stuck with it.
Not sure if it is worth the money.
rabbit from OKLAHOMA – Verified Buyer
Using for storage in church kitchen. Time will tell if it is durable. It is basically glued together.
Nice design, very organized!
Nicole from Brooklyn, NY – Verified Buyer
[...]. It's strange that you have to glue the draws together instead of using a nail and hammer. Also, they do not supply you w/ enough glue to assemble eight draws! I had to run to a drug store at 1am to buy more wood glue. It takes a while for the wood to dry too. However, once its finished its a terrific space saver and looks great in my room. I set it next to my vanity and use it to organize my cosmetics.
Looks good, but not sturdy
Handy Dani from Kansas City, MO – Verified Buyer
The assembly directions were VERY difficult to follow. There wasn't even close to enough glue to complete the assembly. It took about 4 hours with two people attempting to complete it. When finished, it was very wobbly and felt like it was going to fall over and fall apart! Buyer beware...

It works and the rabbit likes it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Abe5740 Review I requested an upgrade to the Club Lounge, but it was not in the computer when I checked in. Front desk staff accomodated my request in a very friendly and apologetic manner. August 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Oldbuzzard Sheraton Experience The hotel is great from service to location. Customer service is important and your hotel has the best customer service staff. Thank you August 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by mamacita705 great location quiet location, able to walk around the area safely. August 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jz1234 Beyond expectation I stay at this Starwood hotel for 3 nights while visiting Disneyland. This by far the most spacious hotel I stayed in the Disneyland. This is also one of the most classy hotel at a reasonable price. Whatever I requested, I got: coffee at all odd hour of the day; free shuttle to the park; extra time parking my car there after check out. Overall, I am very pleased with the hotel. August 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by outdoors27 Very nice place Prior to booking I had read good reviews of this hotel but was still a little hesitant until I experience a place for myself. Mainly I was concerned about the location in relationship from Disneyland, which is no short walk, which we found out one night. Overall great place stay, friendly staff, good food, good drinks at the bar, quiet and comfortable small pool, but open 24hrs. The shuttle service from the hotel was on time all of the time to and from Disneyland. Even the shuttle drivers were very friendly and informative. The hotel has a car rental place within walking distance, which we utilized for a day, the front desk has the information. The hotel is also across the street from a large Target, which came in handy and its next to an Outback, Joe's Crab Shack and Red Robin, all of which we tried and enjoyed. August 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by JFoster Nice Stay This hotel was clean, comfortable and has a nice staff. August 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by FrequentTraveler100 Hotel of Choice for Anaheim/Disneyland 3rd time to stay here and always impressed with quality of service. Only complaint is the breakfast buffet (1st time to try on this visit) which was limited to scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage and oatmeal, for the "hot" choices, and no sliced fruit, did not change at all for all 4 nights stayed there, but the breakfast servers were attentive and exemplary in their service even if it was busy August 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by tientien Excellent Hotel I booked this hotel on the wrong date and when I met the manager she was very helpful. She was very eager and friendly to help us. My son left behind his laptop bag and after many hours the hotel was already keeping the bag safely. The manager did a very good job. July 31, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Steve92211 Pay attention to the little things It's the little things that make a stay. First, the individual who checked me in forgot to add car parking to my room key. This meant that I could not get in/out of the parking lot. I had to have the key modified with a visit to the front desk. Second, the room's TV remote control did not work which required a visit from maintenance. Third, the staff was unable to accommodate a reservation request for room location. What good is the SPG loyalty program if the hotel treats you like they don't care if you come back or not? July 27, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Seahawks247 Added a dose of magic to our Disney vacation First some background. We have stayed at many hotels much closer to Disneyland including an on site resort hotel and we were very pleased with our stay at the Sheraton Garden Grove. It's basic and few frills but we are not the type of people to care about mints on pillows.We care about CLEAN, COMFORTABLE and COURTEOUS . All of which this hotel excelled at. The fridge wasn't cold enough (but these mini fridges are all this way) I'd recommend bringing a cooler like we did (just a 3gal size for three people) and they didn't tell us about a couple things like a microwave in the laundry room (not one in our room) and rewards for not having room services until the third of a five day stay (gift cards you can use toward hotel food/gifts) all we ever need is new towels/tp/coffee and cups. which they still provide. If you don't need your bed made each day this is a nice bonus. The shuttles were prompt and efficient, first day was standing room only but still better than walking 15-20 blocks. There was a couple bumps in service (hence 4/5 stars) but they ironed most those out quickly and pleasantly. Pool was nice, open 24hrs too which is so nice, never stayed anywhere with that. Others stayed no free wifi, true, but they have ethernet so if you can't just gt by with your smart phone, you can bring a cable. I've stayed at dozens of hotels/motels, this hotel ranks in the top 5%. This place is like other reviews say, this is why we chose this place - I will take "clean and great service" over free donuts and cereal any day. (we brought our own bagels and cream cheese anyways). We will most likely stay here in 2016 (we go every 2 years). Very impressive! Thanks!! July 25, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by MINI27 Short Visit Hotel is conveniently located. Many eating establishments to choose from near by. Close to freeways. Helpful staff. No free wi-fi though - except in the lobby. Ridiculous to have to pay extra for this basic service. July 21, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kat533 The only place I will stay in the area! My family and I were totally satisfied with the Sheraton Garden Grove. The room was clean and comfortable. All the staff were friendly and concerned about our satisfaction. We liked being a little further away from the crowded resort areas closer to Disneyland. There were more restaurant choices in the area and the Target across the street. We had complete satisfaction with the Disneyland Shuttle. The drivers were courteous and on-time. I will definitely recommend the Sheraton Garden Grove! July 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Abe5740 Very Responsive This hotel and staff were very responsive to my needs and requests. I would appreciate a working refrigerator on my next visit as I requested. July 19, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by MannyLA Hotel Review Televisions need to be fixed. Every time you change a channel, it says No signal...After several tries, you finally get reception. July 17, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by mzzC Minor complaints My only concerns were the temperature in the meeting rooms was exceptionally COLD. The bread an buns used for a few of the meals were dry and unfresh July 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cattywatty This hotel is great! The staff were friendly and always willing to accommodate our needs. The rooms are in great condition and are very clean. Never had a problem with finding a place to park. The shuttle to Disneyland was on time for the most part, but we never had to wait more than a few minutes. I would highly recommend this hotel! We are already planning a trip to return next year!! July 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tree21 Family Reunion Stayed here because it was close to my family reunion and a little bit away from the crowds of Disneyland. They do have a shuttle to Disneyland though. I really appreciate the reasonable cost of parking. The bell staff was especially friendly. Will return. July 12, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by ToddZ this stay disappointed us I am platinum for life member and was extremely disappointed with this stay. For starters, when we arrived we were given a room on the 6th floor, no upgrades were available. When we arrived at the room, it was right next to an elevator. We asked to switch rooms and were not accommodated to be put on the same floor as our friends on the 6th floor even though we had more status than everyone we traveled with. We were told the were no rooms available to give us. Does platinum for life mean anything anymore? The staff knew we were unhappy being on the 5th floor, but did not reach back out the next day with options to move back up to the 6th floor. Our keys did not work for the parking and our keys kept deactivating. We needed to get new keys at least 6 times during our 9 day stay, very frustrating. We needed to do laundry during our stay. The change machine was broken and when we went to the front desk they told us they had no quarters. it was at this point my wife told them of the rest of the issues. This was day 8 of our trip. They then finally offered to move us to another room. It was too late. She had to ask to even get bathrobes sent up to us. The main bathroom downstairs was under repair for the whole week, very inconvenient and untimely considering it may have been the hotel's busiest week of the year. My wife got a glass of wine at the bar that had turned sour, adding to the list of dissatisfaction. There was no real effort to reach out to me to make the stay better until after my wife complained the last time. I would like a call from someone to discuss this stay. I am platinum for life and have been a loyal customer, but feel like my status does not mean what it used to. I am considering moving my business to other chains that seem to value customers more I can be reached at 781-330-1416 July 6, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by JetAceOne Perfect for VidCon Conference - Disneyland As an SPG Gold member, I found the staff extremely friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and well taken care of. Club Lounge breakfast and hors d'oeuvres were exceptionally useful when traveling with a family. Walking Distance to the Anahiem Convention Center and Shuttle Bus to Disneyland. July 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by feliciaB great group rates this hotel is close to the convention center and Disneyland. The rooms are ok but what the hotel structure lacks the employees make up for. From the reservationist to the bellman to the front desk and the maids. Very courteous and friendly. they go out of their way to help. London the bellman is the oldest of 10 children and was so helpful and polite. Who ever does the hiring does a great job! July 2, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by mellorae Needs Improvement It felt like a very low-end property. The staff was unskilled and as a Platinum Status guests, I felt like I was a guest at an inferior property. The hotel bar staff were not knowledgable and it took 20 minutes one night just to get a glass of wine .....AND, the bar was not busy! July 1, 2014

Product designers are responsible for designing and developing the majority of the consumer products that people use in their everyday lives. All industries that manufacture consumer products employ product designers. For example, product designers work in electronics, furniture design, general manufacturing, automotive manufacturing, and many other fields. More specialized fields include medical technology and telecommunications device manufacturing. While many product designers work to meet consumer needs with completely new products, many of the product designers' job responsibilities involve improving existing designs. Design improvement may be needed for a variety of reasons, such as improvement of functionality, improvement of appearance, and manufacturing cost reductions.Read More...
Often, product designers work as members of multidisciplinary teams that include engineers, prototype fabricators, executive sales staff members, marketing and advertising team members, and others. As part of the design process, product designers employ a variety of technologies, including computer assisted design (CAD), drawings and blueprints, and 3D modeling. Product designers must have working knowledge of these technologies, as well as manufacturing methods, available materials, and budgetary and time considerations.
Product designers usually work full time in an office environment. They may be freelance workers who contract with companies or full-time employees. In addition to working in offices, product designers make frequent use of workshops, studios, and even factory space to aid the design process. Additional responsibilities include meeting with customers or co-workers to discuss designs and commercial needs, working as part of the design team, learning about new manufacturing technologies and materials, researching products and how to improve them, producing models or drawings, and working with engineers to produce prototypes.
Most employers require their product designers to hold a bachelor's degree in a related field, and relevant work experience is generally preferred.
Survey results imply that Product Designers deploy a deep pool of skills on the job. Most notably, facility with Interaction Design, HTML, and User Interface Design are correlated to pay that is significantly above average, leading to increases of 86 percent, 40 percent, and 34 percent, respectively. Skills that seem to negatively impact pay include Engineering Design, Product Development, and Adobe Illustrator. The majority of those who know Adobe Photoshop also know Design. Most people familiar with Adobe Illustrator also know Product Development and Design.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For Product Designers, level of experience appears to be a somewhat less important part of the salary calculation — more experience does not correlate to noticeably higher pay. The average worker who claims fewer than five years of experience earns around $51K. In contrast, however, individuals who report five to 10 years in this occupation see a much larger median of $66K. For Product Designers, 10 to 20 years of experience on the job amounts to an average salary of $69K. Veterans who have surpassed the 20-year mark may make no more than those who are navigating the mid-career stage.
Product Designers will find that San Francisco offers an impressive pay rate, one which exceeds the national average by 56 percent. Product Designers will also find cushy salaries in Boston (+22 percent), New York (+15 percent), Seattle (+12 percent), and Los Angeles (+12 percent). The lowest-paying market is Philadelphia, which sits 29 percent below the national average, proving that location is a significant contributor to overall pay. Austin and Chicago are a couple other places where companies are known to pay below the median — salaries are 18 percent lower and 13 percent lower, respectively.

"I had trouble at first with the grill, which has the elements only covering the middle of the grill area, but thanks to the helpful staff at ao.com I discovered I had not read the instructions fully. It is a closed door grill, in other words you use it with the door closed. I daringly chose to cook fish kebabs, which obviously must be cooked correctly, and the grill worked perfectly. New concept to me, but a great, clean way of grilling and the whole surface of the grill pan cooked evenly! Fantastic.
Oven heats up quickly and cooks just as a fan oven should. I am very pleased with this product."

"I am very pleased with the quality of this Hotpoint cooker. It is not a top of the range and is not feature packed, but what do you expect for this price?
It takes a matter of minutes to reach the required temperature and cooks meals in almost half the time of our last cooker. Being A rated I will hopefully see the benefit in my electricity bills too...
I am very pleased and would definately recommend it"

"Easy to use - a brief read through the simple manual was enough. Looks smart in the kitchen. I got this a week before I was cooking Christmas dinner for 5 and there were no problems at all with expected timings or the increased workload. Not much else to say - it's a basic oven but it cooks and grills as good as any other I've had, and doesn't look cheap, so what more could you ask for this price?!"

Let me warn you ahead of time Camaroman, for some reason the Concept Camaro handles like a pig and the guide gets hung up on the small diameter 1/30 curves.
Thanks for the headsup, But I won't be running the new Camaro's
They will be for (dust) collecting with the other Camaro's on my shelf.
Going to run the others I bought to crash and burn..
I also bought the Massive Power set this week!!!
Have not received either set yet!

I was at the So Cal Kit Bashers meeting tonight where we have a track. What a Blast!
I took three cars. An SCX Mazda, a Slot It Ferrari and a Monogram 76 Greenwood vette that I lowered the body on.
The monogram I got hooked up in the back but the front was way to light and difficult to keep in the groove. The tires on the Monograms are all very thick so I am replacing the front tires with much tinner units and I think it will work. It was fast on the straights.
The SCX Mazda was also light in the front but I discovered that playing with the braids made a lot of differnce and I was soon able to scoot around with this one. You actually have to drive this car which was a blast hanging it our around the corners or using the throttle through the ssssss's. I actually enjoyed this car the most but it was so much slower than the others.
The slot it Ferrari was fast and I could blast the course but it did not seem to accelerate as fast as it should. There were some Scalextric Mustangs, the burgandy and mustard cars and those things were just plain fast. Cornering and straight line speed were fantastic and gave the much smaller Ferrari a real run.
So now I am even more hooked after several hours of fun.
I got no money and I want a ton of cars.
Aint that how it goes LOL?

While living in Tallahassee, Fla., I had the unique opportunity of meeting a lot of professional athletes.
I was lucky enough to work at the city's biggest - and newest - fitness center. All of the former Florida State University athletes would return to the city during their off-seasons and train at Premier Health and Fitness Center - a 55,000-square foot mecca of physical fitness.
Professional football players such as Peter Boulware, Corey Simon and Brad Johnson spent a good deal of time in the weight room.
Several readers have asked recently for an article on clematis vines, since one of them is on the noxious weed list and others are not. Many people seem to be having trouble telling them apart. There have been five species in the genus clematis found on the eastern slope until recently, one white, one yellow and one blue. They have now been renamed, and although the plants are still the same, they are now in four different genera and six species.
Last summer I spent a good portion of time on my mountain bike.
I rode single tracks, paved trails and plenty of local bike paths.
I also made a point to ride my bike to work at least twice a week. It was one of the most enjoyable things I did in all of 2008.

MORRISON — If running up Mount Falcon makes someone crazy, then running down Mount Falcon makes you … um ... even crazier?
"You're probably not going to win a lot of races on the downhill, but you can definitely lose it, as I almost verified today," Mark Lowe said Saturday after he won the Mount Falcon trail race.
Moving to Idaho Springs and teaching tennis in Evergreen is just one more move in a list of dramatic scenery changes for Amy Jensen.
Get your globe and follow along: Jensen was born in Brisbane, Australia, before joining the University of California-Berkeley on a tennis scholarship. She was a five-time All America for the Golden Bears, and a three-time NCAA champion in doubles. She coached there for six years before coaching at the University of Denver for the past three years.
June has finally brought spring to the mountains. Our Evergreen World is GREEN, as green as I have seen it since last August when the drought turned everything to a uniform tan. Even the ponderosa pine trees had lost their scintillating sparkle. Now, after nearly a month of rainy weather, they are sparkling in the sunshine. The hills are green with evergreen trees, kinnikinnick and grasses, and the valleys are green with the new growth of willows.
Just as in days past, the summer folk have arrived in Evergreen. It used to be families that arrived as soon as school was out, and there were cabins to be opened, bed linens to be aired out and meals to be prepared during the last of May or early June. Now it is summer birds that still arrive during the last of May or early June.
The summer birds have territories to locate, songs to sing to warn others to stay out of those territories, mates to court and nests to build. Soon they will have young to feed.
By the time Evergreen's 4x400-meter boys relay team took to the track at Jeffco Stadium on May 16, they already had a school record in hand.
They figured going for broke in the Class 4A state finals wasn't a bad idea.
So, that's exactly what they did.
Running care-free and loose, the team of Nat Prouty, Andrew Gysin, Jeff Troyano and Bryson Newhall shattered the school record they had just set 24 hours prior, burning up the track in a time of 3 minutes, 20.13 seconds to take home state gold with ease.
Winning never gets old. Roald Flater never seems to either.
Flater, 83, took home his fifth gold ball May 10 following a three-set victory to win the U.S. National Indoor Championship's 80-and-up division in Vancouver, Wash.
"I was surprised," the longtime Evergreen resident and member of the Colorado tennis hall of fame said. "Probably my best win I've ever had."
And that's saying a lot for a man that has quietly been making a racquet around the country and world for decades.

Saigon to Hanoi on the Ho Chi Minh Trail, Vietnam

The Ho Chi Minh Trail
Hi and thanks for taking the time to open up my trip report.
From 9 until 17 May 2008, I completed a 2,700km trip from Saigon aka Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi, via the
Ho Chi Minh Trail.
Now, the HCMT was a network of roads which was used during the Vietnam War to bring troops and supplies from North Vietnam to the South.
Here's what Wiki says about the HCMT:
The Ho Chi Minh trail was a logistical system that ran from the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam) to the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam) through the neighboring kingdoms of Laos and Cambodia. The system provided support in the form of manpower and materiel, to the National Front for the Liberation of South Vietnam (NLF or derogatively, Viet Cong) and the People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) during the Vietnam War (1960-1975).
The trail was not a single route, but rather a complex network of truck routes, paths for foot and bicycle traffic, and river transportation systems. The name, taken from North Vietnamese president Ho Chi Minh, is of American origin. Within North Vietnam, it was called the Truong Son Road, after the mountain range in central Vietnam through which it passed.
Parts of what became the Ho Chi Minh trail had existed for centuries as primitive foot paths that facilitated trade in the region. The area through which the system meandered was among the most rugged in Southeast Asia: a sparsely-populated region of rugged mountains (1,500-8,000 feet), triple-canopy jungle and dense primeval rainforests. During the First Indochina War the Viet Minh maintained north/south communication utilizing this system of trails and paths.
When armed conflict heated up between the NLF and the southern regime of Ngo Dinh Diem in 1959, Hanoi dispatched the newly-established 559th Transportation Group, under the command of Colonel (later General) Vo Bam, south in order to improve and maintain the system in its bid for a unified Vietnam.[2] Originally, the North Vietnamese effort concentrated on infiltration across and immediately below the Demilitarized Zone that separated the two Vietnams.
You can read more about it here:
Note to the above, while the name Ho Chi Minh Trail was coined by the Americans, that is now the Vietnamese name too. In Vietnamese it is called "Duong Ho Chi Minh".

I was going to make a thread about the use of mo-cap suits in movies nowadays. I was whether people were yay or nay about them.
That's a cool transition gif!!
When used effectively mo-cap seems to be just as good a movie making tool as any other used to craft a film. I'm pro mo-cap when used well I suppose.

Ordering for a Team?
Let our Team Division Help!
Item has a Minimum Qty
Designed to emulate the feel and resistance of a swimming pull, StrechCordz with Paddles help you improve your strength and flexibility, reduce your IM times and train your hands to remain in a flat, relaxed position. Used by the U.S. Olympic Swim Team and swimmers worldwide.
NEW!Now you can comment & reply on customer reviews. Simply click "comment" below any review.
I keep these hooked to a door knob in the kitchen where I'm reminded to spend a few minutes daily working on a high elbow catch and pull through. The paddles add a realistic feel to the exercises for my hands and wrists. The red model is rated medium hard and offers a little more resistance than I get from my stroke in the water, which is what I wanted. However, I wouldn't want any more resistance.
Report abuse
Your comment has been posted.
Ver;y sturdy. Easy to use.
These paddles are great for workouts out of the pool. If you can do perfect technique while always having tension on the chords, it can benefit both your strokes in the water and your strength. I use it all the time when I have hip or knee injuries so I can maintain or even strengthen my upper body.
The product appears to work well for dryland swim tubing drills, however, I purchased the wrong level of resistance. Would not recommend the "blue" level to start - pick a lower level of resistance. I had to send the product back but plan to repurchase at a lower level of resistance. It hooks into a door jamb very easily or on a sliding glass door handle and once the door is locked the cords are secure and ready to be stretched. Recommend wearing protective eyewear when using though.
I coach in Australia and Eyeline make a product that looks virtually identical yet its retail price is $164.75 and Swimoutlet sells these for $39.95 at the moment. I think from memory the Eyeline branded set has slightly softer hand paddles but outside of that I think they are the same. You can say I am extremely happy with my purchases lately.
I use these dryland stretch cords to build power and endurance for butterfly in addition to helping breaststrokers with their pullout phase.
I put the end in a door jam and lay on the coffee table. It seems to work fine. Besides a good workout it allow me to concentrate on keeping my elbow up. After 5 minutes I'm tired, so I a series of timed sets.
I love using my strechcordz on days that I can't swim. They are great for strengthening and working on swimming form.
This is for my swim club and once I looked up specific exercises they love to use it. My only complaint is not really about the product but that there was not a better instruction booklet included. The pictures in the brochure were very small and didn't include good instructions on how to do the exercises properly so I had to go on line to get better pictures for the kids to see and to make sure I was explaining the different exercises correctly.
there is a huge difference using cords where your palms emulate swimming...that is very unique and crucial to stretchcords w/ paddles but you sent me black cords which are too strong... i ordered blue ones!!!
Get an alert when we add new styles of StrechCordz! Simply sign up and we'll notify you.
Whether you're on water or dry land, StrechCordz provide the best swim training products on the market. Improve your stroke, endurance and strength safely and effectively with StrechCordz. Athletes and swim teams all use StrechCordz for their training needs.

Beginning Tuesday, the Macomb St. bridge in the City of Monroe will be closed entirely to vehicles and pedestrians in both directions.
The bridge will be closed between E. Elm Ave. and E. Front St. The contractor, E.C. Korneffel of Trenton, will begin demolition activities "sometime in the next two weeks or so," Patrick M. Lewis, director of engineering and public services for the city, said Friday.
The posted detour for southbound traffic is E. Elm Ave. to Monroe St. to E. First St. The northbound detour is E. Front St. to Monroe St. to Elm Ave.
"The final completion date is somewhat variable at this point, as it is not known if all weather-dependent activities can be completed before winter," Mr. Lewis said. "But it is believed that the work will likely last until at least the first part of 2013."
The closing comes less than a week before the Monroe County Fair kickoff parade July 29. Mr. Lewis said the closing couldn't be delayed any further.
"It's already been closed to southbound traffic since December," he said. "We're already delayed five months from the original start date of late February due to utility relocations. And the fact that it's going to be rather difficult to get everything done before winter as it is, no one wanted to delay things even further, even by a week."
Since the utility work has finished, "we're going to put the pedal to the metal and hope for the best," he said.
In other city road work planned, Salenbien Trucking and Excavating from Dundee will install a new public sanitary sewer on S. Roessler St. between W. Seventh St. and the city limits south of E. St.
There will be spot lane closures on both W. Seventh and Roessler Sts. The work is expected to take three to four weeks, Mr. Lewis said.
C&D Hughes Inc. of Charlotte will wrap up work on rebuilding the city-owned parking lot north of W. Front St. and west of S. Monroe St. The completion date for all work except for the fishing pier and a new spiral staircase is Aug. 3. A grand opening ceremony tentatively is planned for Aug. 9, just two days before the annual River Raisin Jazz Festival begins.

How can I install Win 7 rtm in a tri boot?
I have Windows XP Pro and Vista 64 installed as a dual boot on the same drive. So can I install Windows 7 RTM on the same drive with them without uninstalling the other 2 OS's? And how?
Re: How can I install Win 7 rtm in a tri boot?
The same way you did with 2, make a new partition.
Easiest way is through the Windows 7 installation disc using diskpart, you can shrink an existing partition.
Compared to programs like "gparted" its somewhat primitive though.
Re: How can I install Win 7 rtm in a tri boot?
Ran into a problem. Could not install on same drive. So I installed on different drive, look good until I rebooted. It seems there's no way to boot to Windows 7. I see XP and Vista in boot up. But no 7.. It's on that drive but don't know how boot from it. Does anybody?
