Best Airfares
I'm not sure this is even a question I should be asking since we all have access to the same pool of online information. However, like all of you, I want to ferret out the best price on airfares to Europe. In June we will be flying from Bend, OR to Paris (CDG) via Seattle. I would appreciate any recommendations on online travel websites, brokers or air carriers that consistently offer the best air fares. I want to confirm that I didn't leave any stones unturned. Thank you kindly.

The painting is at the Metropolitan Museum, which considers it an allegory of the sense of sight.
They are, after all, carefully selected "types," and to isolate them runs the risk of seeing the book as an allegory.
This simple fact is an allegory for the fundamental tension of our modern world.
late 14c., from Old French allegorie (12c.), from Latin allegoria, from Greek allegoria "figurative language, description of one thing under the image of another," literally "a speaking about something else," from allos "another, different" (see alias) + agoreuein "speak openly, speak in the assembly," from agora "assembly" (see agora).
A story that has a deeper or more general meaning in addition to its surface meaning. Allegories are composed of several symbols or metaphors. For example, in The Pilgrim's Progress, by John Bunyan, the character named Christian struggles to escape from a bog or swamp. The story of his difficulty is a symbol of the difficulty of leading a good life in the "bog" of this world. The "bog" is a metaphor or symbol of life's hardships and distractions. Similarly, when Christian loses a heavy pack that he has been carrying on his back, this symbolizes his freedom from the weight of sin that he has been carrying.
used only in Gal. 4:24, where the apostle refers to the history of Isaac the free-born, and Ishmael the slave-born, and makes use of it allegorically. Every parable is an allegory. Nathan (2 Sam. 12:1-4) addresses David in an allegorical narrative. In the eightieth Psalm there is a beautiful allegory: "Thou broughtest a vine out of Egypt," etc. In Eccl. 12:2-6, there is a striking allegorical description of old age.

"...excellent performance from Toby Stephens, who manages to make Rochester simultaneously macho and vulnerable... The Guardian
"A wonderfully reconceived and re-energized production, beautifully stylized...exceptional... The Sunday Times
Editor's NoteCharlotte Brontë's Gothic romance gets the BBC and Masterpiece Theater treatment in this two-part miniseries. Ruth Wilson plays the title role, one of the most beloved characters in classic fiction, thanks to her independence and intelligence. After a difficult childhood, Jane finds work as a governess at Thornfield Hall. There she meets and falls in love with its mysterious owner, Edward Rochester (Toby Stephens), though things aren't as simple as they seem. Prior to this role, Stephens may have been most recognizable for playing a Bond villain in DIE ANOTHER DAY. But he turns in a performance here that may place him next to Colin Firth's legendary Mr. Darcy in the hearts of viewers.

Blake Shelton Premieres New Single 'Over' on THE VOICE Tonight, 4/30
The Semifinals kick off on THE VOICE Performance Show, tonight, April 30 (8-10 p.m., ET) on NBC as all eight Semifinalists will each perform one song in addition to a group performance. Teams Adam and CeeLo will come together to sing "All These Things I've Done" by The Killers, while Teams Blake and Christina unite to sing Lady Gaga's "The Edge of Glory." Plus, THE VOICE presents Coach Blake Shelton, ACM & CMA Male Vocalist of the Year, in the world television premiere performance off his new single, "Over," off his album, Red River Blue.
The Finalists will then be revealed on THE VOICE Elimination Show, Tuesday, May 1 (9-10 p.m., ET) as only one artist per team will advance to represent their coach in the Finals, narrowing the field down to four. The artist on each team with the highest score based on a combined percentage of viewer votes and coach's score from the previous night's Performance Show will move on for a chance to be crowned "The Voice."
But first, THE VOICE welcomes back its season one finalists to join forces with three of music's biggest talents; Cyndi Lauper, Kid Cudi and Coach CeeLo Green himself. Blake's season one finalist, Dia Frampton is set to perform her single "Don't Kick the Chair" featuring Kid Cudi off her debut album, Red, while Vicci Martinez sings "Come Along" featuring her former coach, CeeLo. Also, Grammy® Award-winning singer/songwriter, Cyndi Lauper, graces "The Voice" stage for the first time to perform her classic hit, "Money Changes Everything," alongside Coach Christina Aguilera's season one finalist, Beverly McClellan. And reigning champ Javier Colon performs his new single, "A Drop in the Ocean," off his current album, Come Through for You.
"The Voice" is a vocal competition show featuring celebrity musician coaches Christina Aguilera, CeeLo Green, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton. Carson Daly hosts and serves as producer, and Christina Milian serves as social media correspondent. The show's innovative format features three stages of competition: the first begins with the blind audition, and then the competition enters into a battle phase, and finally, the live performance shows. In the end, each coach will have one star artist left ready to compete against the other teams' finalists to be named "The Voice" – the winner will receive the grand prize of a recording contract.
"The Voice" is a presentation of One Three Inc. (a Hearst/Mark Burnett company), Talpa Media USA Inc. and Warner Horizon Television. The series is created by John de Mol, who executive-produces along with Burnett, Audrey Morrissey, Stijn Bakkers and Lee Metzger.

Education has been the surprise election issue this Midterm season as politicians vie for votes by raising the alarm over America's seeming lack of science and math skills among the young. G.V. Ramanathan, however, wonders if the nation isn't all in a lather about nothing. Where math is concerned Ramanathan, a professor emeritus of mathematics, statistics and computer science at the University of Illinois at Chicago, can rightly call himself something of an authority on the matter, and he believes that everything the majority of us need to know about math, we learned in elementary school.
Is Math Relevant in Daily Life?
In a recent article for The Washington Post, Ramanathan questions the frenzied call to arms of the education establishment to try and boast the almost zero interest most Americans have in math beyond the basics. He points out that since the first clarion of concern in 1983′s A Nation At Risk a lot of money and time has been devoted to promoting math, but that standardized test scores of American teens have improved not one bit since the 1980′s. And despite the angst and alarm this causes politicians and business interests, the fact is that most people aren't required to use advanced math in their daily lives, either at work or personally. Math is less relevant to daily life than literature, history, politics, music and communication skills.
Americans Stack Up Well
In spite of the hordes lack of interest, math still thrives. Those with interest and aptitude stack up quite well with math lovers all over the world. The United States boasts some of the best graduate study programs in the world, and since 1983 has produced 140 Nobel laureates, which is the exact same number it produced prior to 1983.
Why the Need to Love Math?
Ramanathan also raises an interesting question about why our children should be required to love math at all. They are not required to sing, paint, dance, love books or hunger after the ability to parse a sentence grammatically, after all. When a child cannot carry a tune in a bucket, she's not placed in remedial choir, is she?
Basics are Enough
Successful education systems in other parts of the world focus on basics, which Ramanathan points out American schools could easily do more of, at the lower levels, when children are still keen on all things school. Students are sorted by interest and aptitude only as they reach the upper grade levels. It's not assumed in other countries that all children should be college bound.
Given the combined juggernaut of testing, accountability and reform have swamped education debate like a tsunami, it's unlikely Ramanathan's rally for restoring sanity will be heeded, but at least he tried.
What Do You Think?
Are the advanced maths really necessary for a basic education? Is the American disinterest in math dooming our country to mediocrity? Or can a person thrive with just the basic math skills? Share your opinions and stories.

Thank you Ann.
great help , thank you!
thank you
math is real, and science under what you see is made out of math and chemestry and physics. everything is numbers in one form or another.
that is why it is important.
because numbers and math rule us.
Here's a math question: ý'Think' about this today... What will you and your family do once Health Care Insurance is YOUR personal responsibility? Employers/Corporatios are NOT legally obligated to provide you health care benefits! Can you afford $5-15,000 a year for your family insurance coverage? And if you fail to provide for your family coverage, you stand to lose your home, savings, investments...everything you worked for ... because of an "accident or sickness", that's beyond your control. It's coming folks!

It's coming folks!
Herman Cain for president of the USA!
The article never identified what basic math is, but we all need to know how to use algebra in our everyday lives. We need to know how to speak English properly and how to write it. Sometimes Spell Check doesn't cut it, and some of what I hear in commercials really grates on my nerves. We also need to know how our government works, and what other countries are like. Just as we need a well balanced diet of food, we cannot concentrate on one piece of knowledge at the neglect of any others.
Yes, mathematics education is important and essential in childhood.
Childhood is the creation of the mind and the minds of children to understand the nature of mathematics and mathematical models render life is easier to accept the child for a mathematician.
Article teaching mathematics are very important in the life of every human being

Re: A song was purchased and iTunes site indicated it was downloaded when the tab changed from "Downloaded" to "Play"...it shows up faded on my iPad and inactive. What's the problem? in response to babysister
Good question!
In my experience there is usually a problem with the download. If you paid for the song, I advise to NOT try the download again as this may charge your iTunes account/ Credit Card twice.
If it was free, what the heck, try to download it again.
In the Music (orange) App if the song shows up USUALLY you can swipe left (like when you delete something) and delete the song and try to download again.
If none of this works, try contacting expresslane.apple.com
Start by clicking in the center column:
1. iTunes
2. iTune Store
3. Connecting & Downloading
4. Downloads from iTunes store incomplete or interrupted
5. Continue
6. Choose your support option (depending on time of day your options will include email, chat, call now, or schedule a callback)
Good Luck!

The mechanism behind the redistribution of money is not the survival of the best ideas, as the proponents of the free market want to tell us. Instead, investments are loaded with risk while toxic assets are passed back and forth among the big players.
France would be ready to embrace reform, as long as it's fair. But an arrogant Sarko marginalized any interlocutor; thus the whole issue was transferred to the street.

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- Recent Changes in the Regulatory Landscape 2011 marked a major shift in the regulatory environment, as the SEC adopted rules for implementing the Dodd-Frank Act. Many changes to Investment Advisers Act were authorized by Title IV of the Dodd-Frank Act.
- Dealings With Qualified Clients and Accredited Investors Depending upon an RIAs business model and investment strategies, it may be important to identify "qualified clients" and "accredited investors." The Dodd-Frank Act authorized the SEC to change which clients are defined by those terms.
Jon Corzine, former chief of MF Global, sharply criticized a House Subcommittee report that claims he is to blame for MF Global's collapse.
In response to excerpts of the report, "The Collapse of MF Global," which were released Wednesday by the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, Steven Goldberg, a partner at RLM Finsbury who is a spokesman for Corzine, told AdvisorOne in an email message that "while we have not been able to review the whole report," Corzine "disagrees strongly with several of the assertions that apparently are part of the Subcommittee's report."
The full report was released Thursday.
Goldberg first highlights the fact that "consistent with Mr. Corzine's Congressional testimony, the House Subcommittee apparently did not find any evidence that Mr. Corzine acted in bad faith or engaged in any intentional wrongdoing."
Second, Goldberg notes that while the subcommittee claims that "customers may never get back" the more than $1 billion of money lost, the House Republicans "fail to note that more than 80% of customer money has been returned to date." Furthermore, he says, Corzine "continues to feel great sadness about what happened at MF Global and the impact it had on customers, employees and shareholders," and that "he is hopeful that Trustee Freeh is correct in his estimation that customers ultimately will receive a full recovery."
Corzine also takes issue with the subcommittee report's assertion that MF Global's "belated disclosure in October 2011 of its extensive European RTM portfolio–which amounted to 14% of MF Global's total assets–combined with poor earnings news prompted credit rating agencies to downgrade the company's credit rating to junk status."
Says Goldberg: "The Subcommittee fails to recognize that the RTM investments were in fact fully disclosed prior to October 2011. MF Global made full disclosure of the RTM positions in its 2011 10-K, which was publicly filed in May 2011, and in its 2012 first quarter 10-Q, which was publicly filed in August 2011, and the market did not react at those times."
Furthermore, Goldberg says, the suggestion by the Subcommittee that Corzine created an "authoritarian" atmosphere "is wrong." All of the MF Global's significant business decisions, he says, "including the change in business strategy and the RTM investments, were subject to review, debate and approval by the MF Global Board of Directors. In fact, the RTM investments were heavily debated and ultimately approved by the Board, which placed limits on the level of those investments."
Finally, Goldberg addressed the number of assertions the Subcommittee makes as to Corzine's "failures" in managing MF Global. Said Goldberg: "When Mr. Corzine joined MF Global he was tasked with quickly turning around a failing business, shoring up internal processes and controls, and, most importantly, immediately returning MF Global to profitability. He set a new strategy for the firm after extensive discussions with the Board, the senior management team and well respected outside consultants. At all times Mr. Corzine acted in good faith and did what he believed was necessary to turn around MF Global."

Yesterday I washed a small load of dipes, usual wash routine, all PUL on LOW for 20mins. I pull out all the PUL to hang on the crib, and my brand new diaper is unraveling and separating! where the fabric is sewn inside the pocket edge where you would stuff it.
Now, the snaps on it are already wonky. Dh wanted me to send it back when he saw it, but I was so excited to get it I didn't.
So, I emailed the girl who made it, and she has offered to Repair it, and to look at the snaps for me too. However, TWICE now she has made a remark about me putting it in the dryer.
First she said "that's never happened before, but I also don't think anyone has ever put one in the dryer either"
And then in the last message to me she apologized again and said "thanks for letting me know I needed to make them dryer proof"
WTF! Am I right to be a little irked? I bought a $25 diaper off Etsy, why would I assume it needed special treatment? Why would she assume people don't dry diapers? Lots of people do! On high! I just shake the water off on low!
And, I know it can effect long-term, but 2 times in the dryer should NOT cause a seam to unravel and fall apart!!
Would you not assume you can put a Wahm diaper in the dryer? I'm a bit offended she is acting like this is my fault!

MINNEAPOLIS Take a walk in the skyway from the downtown Minneapolis parking lot adjacent to Target Center and you'll see a sign promoting the new-look Minnesota Timberwolves.Pictured on that sign is a mop-topped player with dark, scruffy facial hair and a white Timberwolves jersey. His eyes look one way while his just-completed pass is apparently heading in the other direction. There is no basketball in the sign but rather the words: Presenting the amazingly quick Ricky Rubio no-look pass. Want to see it again?Yes, the Timberwolves are already promoting the 21-year-old Spanish point guard as perhaps the new face of their franchise. For the past three years, that title belonged to rebounding machine Kevin Love. But now that the slick-passing Rubio has joined the fray, that's all changing.The Wolves drafted Rubio out of Spain with the fifth overall pick in the 2009 draft, but he chose to play professionally in his home country for two years before making the leap to the NBA. This off...

Actually, I'd give automatic bids to all conference champs. Just like hoops. That would be 11 automatic bids/ 5 at large bids.
I don't think it's feasible to have 3 rounds of football playoffs at neutral sites. The travel cost alone would be almost prohibitive. Each school's allotment for the Sugar Bowl is 17,500. Even the cheapest tickets go for a few hundred dollars, I believe. Not many schools could have that many fans who could/would travel 3 weeks in a row to neutral sites.
The NCAA tourney early rounds do not always sell out. I've bought walk up tickets on game day on a couple of occasions ... for $35, IIRC, for 2 games.

Sue Kelson goes above and beyond!Reviewed on 9/23/2014 Ermarie M
Where do I even begin on Sue Kelson? She demonstrates every attribute of what a professional event planner should be. Throughout the years, Sue has helped us plan a variety of events including a wedding, Christmas parties, major fundraisers and everything in between. Because of her expertise and supreme professionalism, from the moment when you first approach her to plan an event, until the last linen is removed, your experience is beyond all expectations. Her ability to put clients at ease and anticipate their needs and concerns puts her in a league of her own. In the end, we felt that we had the event planner of our dreams, but we also felt as though we had gained a friend! Her dedication and passion to the job is what will keep us coming back time and time again. Sue is more than a wedding planner – she is a life concierge!
From the first function, to the latest, you have always provided me with exciting events to plan! Every function we have done together has been different, starting with the wedding. I have enjoyed our working relationship and friendship over the years!
Best team around!!Reviewed on 7/09/2014 Kelsey W
Sue and Beverly are quite the team!! They are phenomenal at what they do, and you will be very pleased you selected Sue Kelson Events. They are extremely professional, prompt (in returning calls/emails and getting stuff done), knowledgeable, creative, and easy to work with. They know their etiquette and can help plan, down to the smallest of details, every part of an event. They helped to create a wedding of my dreams, even when I never really envisioned what my wedding would look like. I highly recommend them :)
What a beautiful bride you were, and a elegant woman! Having known your mother for years, I would expect nothing but the most positive and charming daughter. It was such a pleasure to help plan your wedding...you were stunning!
Dream come true!Reviewed on 9/27/2013 Kimberly H
I had the most awesome wedding reception EVER, which I have dubbed, "My Party!" My husband and I met with Sue Kelson several times to go over everything, and I mean everything! Sue covered every last detail (things we didn't even think about). Sue listened to us, really listened to us, asked lots of questions and made suggestions, many of which we implemented. She kept in constant contact with us which was so appreciated and my stress level was kept at a minimum. I was one of those really organized, obsessed, wanting to be in control brides with a binder that went everywhere with me and never left my sight. I was thrilled when Sue had all my information, contact numbers, etc at her fingertips as well! I KNEW I was in good hands and I was right! It was at the rehearsal dinner I turned over the reigns completely to Sue. I was not the least bit apprehensive in doing so either. I was so confident MY DAY was going to be perfect and Sue would see to it...She did, without fail! Every single detail, large, down to teeny tiny was done! I did not have to do anything except get ME ready! I remained calm the entire day, because in Sue's gentle voice, she would inform me of where and what was happening next. A gentle touch on the shoulder, a whisper in my ear, a slight nod of the head, Sue was there! We had lots of stuff going on at "My Party"...guest greeting, food, photo booth...etc. I did absolutely nothing except have the time of my life! My husband and I DID have the perfect reception...Sue saw to it. The tables were beautiful, food fantastic, lighting perfect, timing for cake etc was done at the best time (and not at my doing as Sue kept everything flowing perfectly!) lots of laughter and the smile never left my face! I have nothing but praise for Sue Kelson Events! Sue was everywhere, tending to everything, but funny thing is, I don't recall seeing her other than when she would tap my shoulder and whisper my ear "it's time for..." I know she was busy behind the scenes keeping the reception going. In fact, our 200 guests are still talking about "My Party." Everyone is saying it was the wedding/reception of the century and the best one they have attended! SUCCESS! If you want your event to be perfect, Sue is your lady! Her experience, calm demeanor, gentle voice and ability to take care of every detail is priceless! I cannot express my gratitude and appreciation towards Sue. She's amazing and I am forever grateful for her. Thank you Sue Kelson!
One of my all time favorite Brides! The wedding was such a success, as you were so wonderful to work with, and so organized! I love an organized Bride. You did so many special touches...just loved the travertine coasters, and all the other special touches... Read Less Read More
Professional+AwesomeReviewed on 5/12/2015 Qi W
I only had two months to prepare for my wedding. The limited time and being pregnant made me feel overwhelmed. My husband and I were not sure if we could make it within a certain budget in two months. However, we were lucky to find Sue to help us. Her professional experience and resources gave us lots of confidence and saved our time and efforts. We appreciate all her help to make our wedding so smooth and perfect. It is my wisest decision to have her as my wedding planner!
You are so sweet! And I can't wait to meet your new little bundle of joy...the new love of your life! From the very beginning, you were so organized and easy to worth with - a wedding planner's dream come true! And it was our... Read Less Read More
Hands down the best out there!Reviewed on 1/31/2015 Jennifer F
When I came here (theknot.com) to do a research on what I thought it was a good wedding planner, I did not know what I got myself into! When I went to meet Mrs. Sue and Mrs. Beverly I was so scared, I did not know what to think or where to start. But, for my surprise they started asking us questions about our big day and everything went smoothly. They understood what we wanted and worked from there to make a VERY special and beautiful event. Mrs. Sue is very detailed oriented, and she would not let anything pass by without her noticing (and I mean ANY THING!!!) She is very fun to hangout with too! She will be there, by your side in every meeting to make sure everything is what you want. Overall I had a very very special day thanks to Sue Kelson Events! I cannot thank you enough for your work, your PATIENCE, and your time! HANDS DOWN THEY ARE THE BEST OUT THERE!
We adored you and your husband, and we so happy to help with your wedding! You had a fantastic vision for your wedding day, and were such an organized bride, that it was such a joy for us to be involved with your wedding! We... Read Less Read More
Day of CoordinationReviewed on 12/05/2014 Iana G
My day of coordinator canceled on me. So I need to find someone just a few days before the wedding to help. Sue stepped in and asked all the right questions and pulled everything together perfectly in just two days!
It was our pleasure to help you! And my goodness, what a wedding you had - by far, the best first dance I've even seen in my life! And I've done over 500 weddings, so it was pretty amazing! You two have a wonderful future... Read Less Read More
Our Daughter & Her Husband's Wonderful Wedding Day!!!Reviewed on 10/29/2014
Sue Kelson Events: No need to look any further to find the most competent, honest and efficient Events Coordinators. Sue Kelson and Tina Yampanis gave our daughter and her husband as perfect a wedding as we had envisioned for them. They are true professionals in their field and there are not enough complimentary adjectives to describe these 2 ladies. When our previous coordinator bailed out on us at the very last minute, Sue & Tina pulled off the impossible when they stepped in within 3 days of their wedding and gave them the wedding of their dreams. I don't think there was a moment that day when our daughter and her husband did not have smiles on their faces. We were reassured within 15 minutes of speaking to Sue that our daughter and her husband would have a phenomenal day to remember and it was. They handled every detail before, during and after with such care and efficiency. "Perfect" was heard repeatedly by most of our friends and family. As an extremely satisfied Mother and Father of the Bride, we wholeheartedly recommend Sue & Tina.
It was our pleasure to help you and your family. Your daughter is a lovely person, and was a beautiful bride! And she married a fantastic loving man! We know they will have a lifetime of happiness together.
Sue Kelson Events -- EXCELLENT CHOICEReviewed on 10/18/2014
My niece was married this past summer, and I suggested that she use Sue Kelson Events, as she has helped me plan numerous events together in the past. Wise choice, as no one in our family had to worry about a single thing - Sue and Beverly took care of every single thing the entire day of the wedding. A button came off one of the groomsmen's tuxes, and Sue, even with a broken wrist, sewed the button back on so he was ready to go! My niece and her husband enjoyed their day, while Sue and Beverly kept them on schedule. It went off without a hitch! I would recommend Sue Kelson Events to any bride for a flawless day.
I have adored working with you for over 20 years, so when you called about your niece, I was thrilled! What a beautiful couple, and fun wedding! Your family certainly always knows how to throw a great party!
WeddingReviewed on 10/16/2014 larae h
Sue and Beverly were a gift to Rob and I from the moment we met them. Both of us are busy professionals, we knew we wanted a tasteful and elegant wedding (not the first for either of us) but having the time to plan all the details and bring the right vendors to the table was overwhelming YIKES! Sue and Beverly did "all the heavy lifting!" They spent time getting to know us, discovered some of our favorite things - rain and umbrellas, deep rich royal colors, and devoted their time and talent to making the entire weekend perfect. There were family and friends from age 10 to 90 and they all had a marvelous time. They planned the "get pretty party" for the all the girls in the wedding, the wonderful meals, gathered up a terrific band and photographer (who was so inconspicuous you didn't even know he was there), arranged the rehearsal dinner and finally the end-of-the-weekend send off luncheon when we said good-bye to out of town guests. Through out it all they were professional, patient, pleasant and hilarious when it was time to be. So getting together with them for planning meetings was never a chore, it was always fun! Couples tell stories and laugh about that little guffaw that happened on their wedding day - we didn't have one, we had Sue and Beverly - no way that was going to happen!
One of our all time favorite brides...and now a treasured friend with you and your husband! We loved helping you plan your wedding, and how you would keep Beverly and I laughing. You and your beloved will certainly have a wonderful life together!
Vegas Renewal of VowsReviewed on 10/10/2014 Jinger F
Although Sue is my sister-in-law, she was also my wedding planner for my wedding in 1997, and my husband and I renewed our vows this past August in Las Vegas. Once again, I turned to the expert in the family to plan our event! All of our guests came from out of town, and Sue helped to arrange for transportation, hotels, and of course, the wedding chapel and reception. My husband had a few surprises up his sleeve, which Sue knew about and did not let me know, and our guests went crazy! At the end of the night, we were informed that we were nearly $1,000 short of meeting our food and beverage minimum. Sue stepped in and spoke with the manager, and arranged for ½ bottles of wine to be given away as party favors for our guests. Everyone got a big kick out of taking away a nice party favor, and our money was spent wisely. Everyone had a great evening, and I had no worries as Sue took care of all the details! You will not be disappointed, as she is very organized and thinks quickly on her feet – nothing will ruffle her feathers!
I love you to the moon and back! As I've always said, you (my sister-in-law), are the BEST thing that has ever happened to our family. My brother is one lucky guy!
My Daughter's Happy DayReviewed on 10/01/2014
As the Father of Bride, it was a very emotional day to give away my little girl. Sue Kelson Events made the day less stressful, knowing that she was always near, to answer my questions, and even helped me with my Welcome Speech to our wedding guests. She assisted my wife in planning each and every aspect of the wedding from assisting in choosing my daughter's wedding gown, to selecting the band. My job was much easier, but Sue helped me plan the golf tournament for the men, the day before the wedding. At the end of the night when my wife and I were very tired, Sue and Beverly helped get all the gifts into the car, along with the leftover wedding cake. My wife and I did not need to lift a finger. It was a wonderful day, and Sue Kelson Events was a big part of the success of the wedding!
It was hard not to cry with you, as I watched the tears in the corner of your eyes, on the day you walked your beautiful daughter down the aisle! But she will always be "Daddy's Little Girl"...that I know for sure!
Wonderful Experience & Excellent PlannerReviewed on 9/30/2014
My son was married this past summer, and Sue & Beverly made the wedding perfect! The mother of the bride lives out of town, so I did most of the planning for her. Without the help of Sue Kelson Events, I would have pulled my hair out! They helped me find the reception site, the DJ, and the perfect florist – all within our budget. The day of the wedding we enjoyed our guests and did not worry a single thing. Sue and Beverly had it covered!
Thank you! And both "you moms" made the planning effortless! To watch your children get married with such love and happiness is what gives us joy, and we are glad that you trusted us with this most special day.
Perfect Evening!Reviewed on 9/22/2014
Sue Kelson Events helped plan my wedding and I could not have done it without her help! Sue and her team took over all the details, so I did not have to worry about a thing. As I was finishing my studies in NYC, I had little time to plan, and it's also very hard to plan a wedding long distance. Sue and her team worked with my parents in Dallas to find my venue, florist, and band. It was an amazing night, and my husband and I enjoyed every moment, not worrying about one single detail. Sue told me when it was time for pictures, time to cut the cake, time to dance, and even made sure our reception site had a meal waiting for us when we arrived! We ate before we went into the reception, which was brilliant, as we were both so hungry! I would recommend Sue Kelson Events for your wedding or any special family party!
Planning a wedding while you are finishing college is never easy...but you made it delightful! I so enjoyed working with your mom, and I hope when you are in town, you always stop by to say hello! We can go down memory lane talking about... Read Less Read More
Excellent!Reviewed on 9/22/2014 debbie p
Sue Kelson Events helped me plan my daughter's wedding from start to finish. I am a very busy mom who did not have time to look for a reception site, or a florist, and Sue found my daughter the perfect site! She listened to what my daughter wanted for her wedding, and she followed through on every detail. She was helpful to me, as she always returned my calls right away, or answered my emails within just a few hours, even on the weekend. On the day of the wedding, I knew I did not have to worry about anything, as Sue checked on all the vendors in advance, making sure everything was in place. The wedding was perfect, and my daughter was very happy! I would highly recommend Sue and her team!
It was our pleasure! You made it easy, and we could not wait for your daughter's wedding day...and what a stunning bride she was! I am looking forward to helping you with your other daughter...in a few years :)
Sue Kelson EventsReviewed on 7/25/2014
I can only say superlatives to the way Ms. Kelson and her assistant Beverly handled the rehearsal and the WEDDING including reception. They handled everything so I as father of the Bride really only had to walk daughter down the isle leaving me to mingle with the guests. Anticipated everything without missing a beat
Beverly and I were so happy on your daughter's wedding day! She was gorgeous, and you and your wife looked so happy! Being able to enjoy the evening without worries is our goal. You were the perfect host to your guests, and we were honored... Read Less Read More
Sue Kelson makes this work!Reviewed on 10/04/2013 Kelley B
Sue did a wonderful job planning & executing our wedding reception. Prior to our official entrance, she carted my wife and I off to her office where 2 complete place settings awaited us (along with Advil & our favorite beverages). This was a nice touch because we were able to relax & eat before being bombarded by guests! Sue also expertly dispatched pesky children that were running around which ensured our photos we nice & memorable. Details like these (and many more) that most people, my wife and I included, never even think about is what makes Sue the perfect choice to handle your wedding and/or reception.
I remember your wedding like it was yesterday! You two are some of the nicest people I've met, and not to mention...funny! We laughed and laughed during the planning process! And now I have two new friends with both of you...love always seeing the two... Read Less Read More
True ProfessionalReviewed on 9/30/2013 Cheri R
Ms. Kelson is a true professional. Her many years of event planning experience at a variety of venues makes her the perfect choice to plan any type of event. We've used Ms. Kelson to plan five-star corporate events as well as holiday parties, private birthday parties and large-scale political fundraisers. She has top-notch contacts she can leverage for any imaginable service you may need. When we have an upcoming event, our first call is always to Sue Kelson Events to get the ball rolling. In addition to our company needs, Sue Kelson was also instrumental in my personal wedding planning. On short notice, she secured a venue and planned an extraordinary wedding and reception that we will always cherish. I would recommend her services to all of my closest friends and colleagues.
You are always such a joy to work with! From all the different types of parties that we have planned, you are always so organized. Together we take the party to a new level! And...I love that you and your husband are now my friends... Read Less Read More
Perfect Hawaiian WeddingReviewed on 9/28/2013
I wanted a destination wedding which was a bit scary in the beginning. Then I got in touch with Sue Kelson to help coordinate the long distance event. She worked directly with the hotel, photographer, florist, musicians, and even the minister. Once Sue was working with me, I had no more fears. She is the ultimate professional. She knows what you want before you do! Her attention to detail is every woman's dream come true. If not for Sue I would have been a nervous wreck with all the details. She even took care of a bouquet crisis without batting an eye!!! The woman can do everything! You can trust her. The fact that Sue was there allowed me to really focus on enjoying the entire day as every bride should.
What a fabulous wedding you had in Hawaii! From the flowers, to your dress, and of course, the family, the setting could not have been more perfect! I think we should "renew your vows" in 5 years! Aloha :)
Simply the bestReviewed on 9/25/2013
Sue Kelson is in the process of helping me plan one of the most important events in my life - my wedding. I was so overwhelmed at the daunting task ahead of me. When I contacted Sue, she immediately put me at ease which enabled me to finally relax and enjoy the adventure. Sue's recommendations and contacts have been spot-on. Any time I have a question, she has responded immediately. She helps me think through what my vision is and then puts it to paper. I feel like she really cares that every detail is addressed. I would be lost without her. I know that when my wedding day arrives, she will be holding my hand every step of that day.
I can't wait until next August for your wedding! You have been such a fun, and funny bride to work with...I look forward to every meeting, as I know we will be laughing while planning! I feel I have made a new friend :)
Excellent Wedding PlannerReviewed on 9/23/2013
I had my wedding at a local country club in 2009. Sue Kelson was the wedding planner and she was fantastic! Every detail was handled with the utmost professionalism and attention. Everything was perfect! We met a few times before the big event to line out what I wanted. She was on hand for the entire event, all the way to seeing us to our limo at the end of the night. The ceremony was perfect, and the reception was a blast. People are still telling me what a great time they had!! Thanks Sue!!
Thank you! You were such a beautiful bride, and so nice to work with! I still think of your wedding from time to time - you did not miss a single detail, and it showed! It was fabulous :)
Excellent Wedding PlannerReviewed on 9/23/2013 Maryam Z
I would highly recommend Sue Kelson events for your wedding with no reservations. Very organized and attention to details. She can think of things that did not even cross our minds for wedding arrangement. Very experienced and you just feel an amazing confidence working with Sue and the peace of mind that you need especially as you get closer to the big day! She is a wonderful, professional wedding planner with a real passion for what she does! We were extremely happy with her!
Thank you for such kind words! Looking forward to October :)

The best thing for me as the mother of the bride was that I could relax and really enjoy my daughters wedding. I would recommend Sue Kelson Events for any large or small gathering! Simply the best!
I've never seen a bride more happy than your daughter! What a wonderful day it was! Many thanks :)

Re: What is the PerfLevelSrc hack ?
I've used Beryl/Compiz on low-end nVidia cards (5200, 7300) to high-end (7950+) and there is a tremendous difference.
Then again I'm using super hi-resolutions with two monitors and normally 10-20 apps running. That kills the low-end cards even on some 2D stuff.
However, even on a laptop Beryl will give those low-end cards a workout. I'll speak hypothetically and say that it is doing lots of up and down clocking, which maybe the driver is not 100% stable in doing it.
XID errors typically mean the driver received a hardware error. I normally see them when the cards are overheating or about to die (two have died when lots of XID errors started happening). Tweaking the driver to "reduce" XID errors is only delaying the inevitable.
Yes, he will have to buy better hardware. Why are you so cheap? Spend an extra $100 and get a chip that is twice as fast, won't overheat, and will last you a while.

OAKLAND CITY—A strong defense and attacking offense helped Wood Memorial defeat Cannelton 74-44 in the Class A girls basketball sectional finals Saturday.
The Bulldogs had a rough game as they battled through Wood's tight defense, which stuck close to Cannelton's shooters and allowed them few points.
Cannelton Coach Jeff Miller said the Trojans aggressively pushed his team during the whole game and he felt that the foul calls were "very lop-sided."
TELL CITY—Tell City held Hancock County to 37.2 percent field-goal shooting and beat the Hornets 67-50 in boys basketball Saturday.
"We defended a little bit," said Tell City Coach John Hayes, obviously happy with the improvement in that part of his team's game after it gave up 84 points to Evansville North two days earlier.
Tell City trailed 12-10 after one quarter. But Andy Chinn and Jamal Noland led a second-quarter rally that put the Marksmen up 36-22 at halftime.
EVANSVILLE—Tell City's Dylan Froehlich and Andy Kast each lost in the first round of the IHSAA wrestling semistate Saturday.
It was a strong semistate in their weight classes.
Kast lost 7-0 to Brannigan Barlow of Bloomington South. Barlow is ranked third in the state in the 130-pound weight class by IndianaMat.com but finished fourth in the semistate.
Kast finished the season with a 21-11 record.
Froehlich lost 5-1 to Daniel Tatgenhorst of Jeffersonville.
CANNELTON—Lanesville outrebounded Cannelton 31-17 to beat the Bulldogs 79-64 in boys basketball Saturday afternoon.
Each team hit 50.0 percent from the field. But Lanesville got 16 more shots and 11 more free throws thanks to its rebounding advantage and 23-12 advantage in turnovers.
Cannelton hit 13 of 27 three-point shots, though, and still led 54-53 after Justin Dooley hit a three-pointer with 19 seconds left in the third quarter.
The Bulldogs made five three-pointers—by five different players—that period.
LEOPOLD—Lanesville made 9 of 10 free throws in the last 2:05 to defeat Perry Central 44-37 in boys basketball Tuesday.
Perry Central pulled within one, 31-30, as Ian Hahus made a 6-foot jump shot in the lane making with 7:30 left in the game.
Lanesville then slowed the game down when it had possession. The Commodores fouled Jarrett Beach, who made both free throws to put the Eagles up by three with 5:43 left.
WHITESVILLE, Ky.—Whitesville Trinity scored 12 points off offensive rebounds in the first half and beat Cannelton 61-44 in boys basketball Tuesday.
The Raiders jumped to an 8-0 lead, including three points by 6-foot-5 junior center Collin Hagan on a rebound basket and free throw.
After Ethan Herzog hit a three-point shot for Cannelton, Trinity missed a shot but got the rebound and kicked it out to Ethan Brown for a three-pointer.
Hagan scored another rebound basket to give the Raiders a 16-5 lead.
POSEYVILLE—Perry Central hit only 26.5 percent from the field in a 53-41 boys basketball loss to North Posey Saturday.
The Vikings, who improved to 7-10 with their third consecutive win, jumped to leads of 16-5 after the first quarter and 31-11 at halftime.
They hit 11 of 18 from the field in the first half while the Commodores made only 4 of 25 that half.
"We're in a really bad shooting slump right now," said Perry Central Coach Matt Carter.
Ian Hahus led 7-10 Perry Central with 17 points and Reuben A. Schwartz added 10.
During the 1970 football season, coaches from several Big Ten Conference, Southeastern Conference and Pacific-8 (now Pac-10) colleges came to Tell City to scout Rick Alvey, a running back who would eventually accept a scholarship from the University of Kentucky.
Paul Werner, one of Alvey's basketball teammates that school year, would sign 21⁄2 years later to play guard for the University of Kansas.
Both will be inducted into Tell City's Athletic Hall of Fame Saturday.
LEOPOLD—Northeast Dubois went on a 10-0 run to start the third quarter and held off Perry Central 63-57 in boys basketball Thursday.
The Jeeps led by only one point at halftime but started their third-quarter run started on a jump shot by Dexter Royer, followed by a basket by Colin Heeke.
Josh Gordon added two baskets and Royer capped off the run with a layup, making the score 39-28 with 4:30 left in the third quarter.
The Jeeps limited the Commodores to six points in that quarter, while scoring 16 themselves.
FERDINAND—It's been said that defense and rebounding win championships in basketball. And that's the formula Perry Central used to reach the championship game of the Forest Park girls sectional.
Perry Central held South Spencer scoreless for nearly 11 minutes and outrebounded the Rebels 42-21 to beat them in the semifinals Friday.
The Commodores were scheduled to play North Posey for the title Saturday.

Pen ultimate / Of new starts and restarts
In the early 1980s, soon after I joined the staff of Haaretz, I was summoned to the room of the editor-in-chief - Gershom Schocken, a figure of mythological proportions even then. To those who did not have the privilege of knowing him, I'll just say that he always reminded me of what Sherlock Holmes used to say about his older and wiser brother Mycroft - that to meet him off his beaten tracks (Pall Mall, Whitehall, the Diogenes Club) was like seeing a tramcar driving toward you on a country lane.
I don't remember why was I summoned to the sanctum sanctorum, but I do remember that I was tense and nervous. He spoke at length, his discourse slow and measured, and soon I found myself hastening to finish his sentences for him. He let it happen three times, and then sort of snapped at me: "Will you please let me speak!"
This formative event came to mind when I read that Google offers Web surfers a new service: It is called Google Suggests (ostensibly, a younger and much smarter brother of Simon Says). As you type into the search box, Google Suggest "guesses" what you're typing and offers its suggestions in real time. As they help us to search the Web, they learn a lot about our preferences; their algorithms use a broad range of information to predict the queries users are most likely to want to see. You hint and they offer you the things and topics you want - or should want.
I'm a suggestible type of person, but I know already that Google truly likes to help me in my searches. When I type something in the search box, they usually ask me "do you mean?" - and offer something else. Sometimes it helps, but mostly I tend to say (they don't hear it anyway): "No, thank you. I meant exactly what I typed."
Google's name is not supposed to commemorate the great Russian writer Nikolai Gogol, who wrote "Dead Souls." It is a take-off on the name proposed by the 9-year-old nephew of the American mathematician Edward Kassner, for a number which is 10 to the power of 100, in other words 1 with 101 zeroes following it. The unnamed nephew called it "googol" and the search engine hints that that is the number of pages they are ready and willing to search for you. If you look at the bottom of the page, you will see that the word "Google" gains an "o," which looks like a zero with each page it offers you for perusal.
This willingness to make suggestions to surfers concerning potential words, whims and fancies is radically different, almost diametrically opposed, to the relations between a person and his or her book. This is precisely the digital world's fatal fallacy, this interactivity: You type and the computer suggests unlimited possibilities, but it knows how to limit them for you. They know your limits. Better than you do.
The book, on the other hand (or in both hands, in my case) is magnificently inter-not-active. To be precise, it demands some activity of the reader, but it lays there passively by itself, beautifully unperturbed: It offers a string of words and expects the reader to create expectations, to offer guesses, to suggest options. It will not conform to the reader's needs, but rather with every word on the page, adds possibilities, challenges and provokes the reader. You will be moved by it, it will not be moved by you.
Let me be clear: I don't want my computer to second-guess me. I'm already its obedient servant, but to me Google's proposals are indecent. They offer them as a service, full of good will, but to me this seems to be a gross invasion of my privacy. It is already invaded by a host of Big Brothers (and I also have a sister) who know better than me what's good for me.
Will it - the computer, a compound noun for all things digital - let me guess what it means? Each time I have tried to do so, I have had to restart it. Maybe that is what frightens me: that it will start with finishing my words for me, and will end up trying to "restart" me.
When you crossbreed a deconstructivist with mafia boss you get an offer you can't understand. But here is my offer, which I know my computer will refuse: You will not suggest what I mean to you, and I will not restart you - unless you get stuck, which happens about a googol number of times.
Tonight, at midnight, 2004 will end. I will not dare suggest to you what you should wish for yourself for 2005. We are all old enough to know that it is too late to start anything new. We are all too far gone ("We are in in life stepp' d so far that should we wade no more, returning were as tedious as go o'er," to paraphrase Macbeth), but we can apply a term belonging to "computer-ese" to our personal life, and use the calendar as an opportunity to metaphorically restart ourselves. We should remember that by performing Alt-Ctrl-Del, we may lose all unsaved material in the process, so it is better to close down all applications, and then raise our glasses and wish ourselves an all Happy New Year. And happy restarting!

Foreign Secretary William Hague rejected allegations that Britain is boosting trade at the expense of human rights, arguing his trip to the signing of a BP Plc gas deal in Azerbaijan this week let him raise concerns about abuses.
U.K. Foreign Secretary William Hague said Britain will reopen its embassy in Tehran, closed after a raid by extremists in 2011, in a sign that the advance of Sunni militants in Iraq is encouraging diplomacy with Iran.
U.K. Foreign Secretary William Hague said the conflict in Ukraine would worsen were Russia to invade the mainland following its occupation of the Crimean peninsula.
U.K. Foreign Secretary William Hague said his 1998 comment that the euro area was "a burning building with no exits" has been proved right and that member countries will have to live with the consequences for decades.
U.K. Foreign Secretary William Hague said Britain is convinced President Bashar Al-Assad is behind last week's chemical weapons attack in Syria, and there's agreement with the U.S. and France on the need to respond.
"This is a fundamental issue of fairness for all the people of the United Kingdom."
- William Hague on Dec 16, 2014

Everyone loves a good mystery, with gaming, players not only get to experience a piece of the action, but they also get to solve the mystery. In Murdered Soul Suspect, Square Enix pushes the intrigue up a notch by having gamers solve the case of their own murder.
According to the reveal trailer, Murdered Soul Suspect will be a detective game with a bend towards the supernatural. With (seemingly) superb graphics, outstanding physics, an unhealthy dose of action and a challenging puzzle, this game surely holds the promise to deliver an experience much like LA. Noire; one of my all-time favourite sleuth games.
