Lunch in Roatan
My mom and I took a cruise on Feb 3 out of New Orleans. We cruised the western Caribbean. NCL has the friendliest and most helpful staff. We continued to get lost because the boat is rather large. When needing directions, there was always a friendly face willing to help us find our way. The dining rooms were really comfortable. The waitresses and waiters knew their stuff and presented the food hot.
Our stateroom boy was Angelo. He greeted us every morning and evening. Asked how we were and what we had planned for the day. I loved the towel animals he made and left on the bed.
One thing I need to mention is the entertainment. A different show was put on every night. Very professionally done. The dancers were really good and entertaining. Shark Bait was hilarious. I even purchased their DVD and juggling balls, which I ended up watching instead of participating because it was more entertaining that way. People were having a ball trying to juggle their socks.
This was my first cruise and my moms 5th or 6th. She picked the western Caribbean and I'm so glad she did. I had the time of my life. I would recommend Norwegian Cruise Line for anybody planning to cruise. Should I cruise in the future? NCL will be my choice!!

Story 43 for Norwegian Star
Cruise Date Month:
February 15, 2013
Norwegian Star from New Orleans
This was our first trip with Norwegian and I found it to be excellent. We boarded on Super Bowl Sunday and they let us on board 30 min. early which was nice and I love the fact that you don't have to wear life vests for the test after boarding. I felt it had a very casual and carefree feeling and most people were my age (sixties) and came from all over. There wasnt a midnight buffet but there was plenty of food all night long. The buffets were good but pretty similar each day. The Versailles was excellent and enjoyed it. We didn't like the Aqua Room as much because it was smaller but it had the same food. We missed getting to know our waiter and them parading around with the fancy desserts like cherries jubilee, etc that they do on other cruises. But if I had my choice I would choose the freestyle over the fancy desserts. The disembarkation was very easy too.

Our Jan. 2013 cruise
I went on a cruise Jan. of this year. The NCL Star was the most memorable cruise that we have gone on. This was our 21st cruise. The staff was surperb. Every staff member was absolutely perfect. They even got off of the ship that was docked next to the Pearl and welcomed everyone back from their shore excursion in Cozumel. I will probably only use NCL for all of my future cruises. We have another one booked next Jan. .Try the BLUE LAGOON. It made wonderful fish and chips. NCL should be very proud of this ship.

Mexican Riviera followed by Pacific Coastal
Images for this Story
It was our second cruise with NCL and overall. We have combined a Mexican Riviera with a repositioning to Vancouver, and had a wonderful 10 days cruise.
We loved the ship: significant size therefore very spacious, clean, very well marked, friendly and helpful staff, nice shore excursions.
Although we sailed before its refurbishing in 2010, we enjoyed very much and didn't have any significant complaints.
The highlight was Tex-Mex restaurant in the atrium area, a feast of flavours and exceptional service, and the last but not the least complimentary. Unfortunately it was closed and eventually replaced with another one, fee charged.
Honestly this is a trend I am not really happy about it.There's more and more speciality restaurants with a fee between 5 to 20 or even 25 dollars.
The room was perfect, had a balcony, even if we didn't have the chance to linger too long on the chaises longues( partial because we were either on the shore or at the pool, or because it was windy while sailing). Since then, we decided to take an inside room, at an upper deck and the difference to spend on shore activities.
We were a bit dissapointed by the disembarkation process in Vancouver. It was very slow and ill conducted.
At the end of the day the cruise was very relaxing and brought us nice memories.

Thanksgiving 2012
Shirley and I cruise often on NCL, we find it is one of the better cruise lines. November each year we usually go to Las Vegas to visit her sons. This year we decided to bring them to New Orleans and cruise for 7 days to Mexico, Belize, and Honduras. Leaving the week end of Thanksgiving it was cool in New Orleans, but the next day at sea it was warm enough for shorts. Shirley and I have taken the cruise before and knew what to expect, Jason and Nick were new to the scene. We planned excursions in Belize for cave tubing, and enjoyed it greatly. Nights on board were spent enjoying the nice specialty resturants onboard, followed by the four of us playing shuffle board for hours on end. We have taken other cruise lines, but find the NCL best for our taste. We like being able to eat when we want and sit where we want. Free Style Baby!!!
NCL should give the two guys out side the main dining resturants a raise "Washie Washie" was their song, talking about using hand cleaner. it was so funny. Choose this cruise, you won't be disapointed.

Fun Times, Great Memories...........
We were on the 13 - 20 Jan 2013 sailing of the NCL Star. First, I will say the ship is getting somewhat dated, but it was very clean. We had a mini-suite (11688). Great location at the aft end of the ship, right by the elevators, spa, fitness center and the Market Café was right up above us on deck 12, but noise was not a problem at all.
We ate at Cagneys (don't miss it), Le Bistro--fantastic food, La Cucino, which had superb Italian fare, and Moderno (food way overcooked, not worth the money). Versailles, the "formal" main dining room had so-so food and slow service. Ate there once, would not go back. The Market Café Buffet was really nice, but you will get "washy washy" to death, lol.
The shows were good, pool never crowded at at all. Weather was great once we left NOLA, around 75F average during the entire cruise. First cruise on Norwegian, got home and booked another one on the NCL Jewel for Apr, 2014.

Don't miss the spa
My wife and I went on the Norwegian Star January 6th to the 13th. We had never done a cruise before and spent the first two days not knowing exactly what to do. After then second day we re-arranged our dinner schedules to allow us to see the nightly shows in the Stardust theater.I was very surprised by the quality of the entertainment. The food on the ship was pretty good every night with Cagney's and Le Bistro being excellent. We played bingo, saw second city in the Spinnaker lounge as well as the "not so new- newlywed game" Both were very entertaining. We weren't able to get off at Belize as they had no dock. I am unable to use the tender boats. This is where our vacation really changed. My wife talked me into getting a massage. I was lucky enough to get Jelena. She gave an excellent massage. She made me feel so good that I got another one a couple of days later. She is one of those special people you might only meet a couple of times in a lifetime. I am a quiet type of person and really enjoyed the peacefulness and serenity of the spa. We spent most of our time there the rest of the vacation. I hope the NCL realizes what really makes their cruise special isn't the food , nor the shows nor the casino. It is their employees. We were made very welcome our entire trip. A special call out to the entire staff at Cagney's and the Barong spa.They are the best. If you really want a great experience , book a massage and ask for Jelena. You will be glad you did. Lastly ...To Jelena (I hope she sees this) Thank you for changing my entire vacation. It wasn't just the massage. It was being able to meet such a special person. I wish you the best in life and hope that you get all you deserve. May all your dreams come true. I will remember you fondly always.

Story 49 for Norwegian Star
Western Carribean

Amazing Experience on the Star
Ou family booked thie Carribean cruise in January 2012. We were very excited from the begginnning and looked forward to it for the whole year every day. The question was, would it be worth it? We booked the 2-Bedroom Family Suite with Balcony, hoping that it also would be worth the money. Once we saw the ship, we were giddy with excitement. The crew greeted us very kindly, and escorted us straight to Cagney's for lunch to eat while we waited for our room to be ready. We met the Cagney's manager, Danilo, who told us about his home life and his family. He said he enjoyed being aboard the Star, and hoped we had a good time too. He was very polite and kind, always greeting us by name when he saw us. We won't forget him. Our room was amazing, and our butler Clint was awesome. He was very kind and proffesional. He really went above and beyond. The balcony in itself was definetley worth the money. Sometimes we would have our friends who were on the cruise too over for cocktail parties. The Oasis Pool was very nice too, but the slides are a bit slow. There were plenty of hottubs for lounging. We did that the first night, as it was cold in New Orleans. Every crew member we met aboard the Star was eager and willing to make this the best vacation ever. We all felt very special. We went and saw many performance in the Theatre, its definitley worth seeing Elements. We also did many excursions at all the wonderful ports.The kids loved Dolphin Swim and Ride, and the snorkeling in Roatan and Belize was fabulous! Though one person in our family got the flu that was going around in our hometown, they still had a great time. And when more poeple started getting sick, they took extra precations and the sickness was gone very soon. Washy washy! :) I know some stories and reviews said that the food was ok and cafeteria like. I would have to say however, that the food, no matter where you went, was amazing! The desserts and self serve ice cream were a favorite, as well as the made to order pasta, crepes and variety of healthy foods. The food at the specialty resteraunts were also very delicious. Teppanyaki is totally worth the money, as well as Cagney's! We didn't get sea sick, although there were a few rough nights. And as the sun set across the sea, we would watch from a sundeck or our balcony, and just say "ahhhh". The Norwegian Star is perfect for a family getaway, or a romantic few nights for 2. They have everything, and if you are missing something, they will be sure to make up for it or get it. We all had an amazing time, and can't wait to book our next!!!

Norwegian STAR repositioning cruise
Images for this Story
My story is easy to tell. This is the 2nd Norwegian cruise my fiancee and I have taken and once again, I need to rave. The cruise left New York City on Oct 20 and sailed 14 nights throughout the Caribbean and ended in New Orleans. I have taken many 7 night cruises before (other cruise lines as well). This 14 night cruise was splendid. We had the time to meet and become friends with so many people, passengers and crew alike. Lifelong friends!
I want to extend my gratitude to the entire crew. They are the most hard working people I have ever met. I saw them working at all hours and although they must have been tired, their smiles never vanished.
I was having dinner at Le Bistro one night and the waiter asked if we had dinner plans for the following evening as well. I responded that the next night was my birthday and we had reservations at Cagney's steakhouse. The next evening, as we enjoyed our dinner, the Le Bistro waiter arrived and gave me a birthday cake. He told me that he wanted to wish me a Happy Birthday even though I was not dining in his restaurant. I was in awe. There was no need for hs kindness and yet, there it was...going out of his way. It's like that with every one we met...
Norwegian cruise lines offer a wide variety of activities and dining choices but I choose to be a Norwegian because of the crew!
We are considering getting married in New Orleans and hopping on the STAR next February. The STAR ports in New Orleans every Sunday so if we plan it then some of of the crew (our friends) can attend.

A recent report shows the total debt load borne by borrowers of Federal student loans has increased 463 percent since President Barack Obama began his first term. And it grew at a rate that outpaced student borrowing in the George W. Bush era by more than 500 percent.
CNS News, which crunched the numbers last week, reported that the current balance of outstanding student debt has reached $674.6 billion, compared with $119.8 billion in January 2009, at the start of Obama's first term.
The dramatic jump isn't simply coincidental with Obama's Presidency; it's a result of it. As CNS observes:
Direct federal student loan spending began to rise rapidly in fiscal year 2010, when the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act — one of the two laws that make up Obamacare — gave gave the federal government complete control over federal loans for education, the Direct Student Loan (DL) program. This aspect of HCERA became effective July 1, 2010, when the amount of outstanding loans stood at $178,806,000,000. Since then, the balance has increased by 277 percent.
As private lenders have bowed out of the student loan market, thanks to an absence of profit motive as government continues to keep interest rates artificially low, the government itself has begun to play an increasingly prominent role as a primary lender.
And the government doesn't hold borrowers to the same repayment standards that banks do.
"The problem is further complicated by Obama's willingness to use debt forgiveness programs to absolve certain students of their obligations," writes The Daily Caller's Robby Soave. "The president has frequently championed and expanded such programs, which allow graduates to unload their debt burdens if they work for certain government agencies for lengthy periods of time."
It's just one more example of the Obama Administration's push to expand the welfare state in a calculated effort to capture a greater swath of the broad American middle class.

Fatty Liver Disease (cont.)
Fatty liver disease is a preventable illness with the institution of a healthy lifestyle including a well balanced diet, weight control, avoidance of excess alcohol consumption, and a regular physical exercise program. This does not guarantee success in disease prevention as some people may still develop the liver disease.

Oh no no ^_^ It's ok :) I never purchase anything that expensive from overseas ^^ so I have no worry about customs :) In term of percentage is the same, but EMS is more expensive than SAL so the final customs/tax is also increase. I hope I'm not making you worry about your shipment. I think only Europe has this unreasonable high tax....
03 years agoCupcakez89 The quiet one
yes 30% is too much.. That is why I try my best to avoid it. It makes me think carefully if I really want that figure :)
Well, good night....Have a good night ^_^ I guess it's a good way to stop people from buying every figure they see >_< but still....30% is too much. Is it more if you ship EMS? hehe, I'm sorry, I haven't even notice I post in my own wall xD, well it's already little late.

Atir was founded around 55 years ago. Until 1948, and for decades, the tribe lived in Wadi Zubaleh (now assigned to Kibbutz Shoval). In 1948, the military government asked the tribe to leave their lands and move to the area of Khirbet El Huzeil, and in 1956, when they tried to return, they were forbidden to do so. Instead, the military government required them to settle permanently in an area known today as the Yatir Forest.

Addressing Psoriasis(TM) was developed to inspire people with plaque psoriasis to actively manage their condition, be more confident and not allow the condition to inhibit their everyday style. Now in its second year, Addressing Psoriasis(TM) continues to raise public awareness and encourages patients to visit a dermatologist as the first step in managing the condition. Addressing Psoriasis(TM) is sponsored by Amgen and Pfizer with participation from the American Academy of Dermatology, the National Psoriasis Foundation, Psoriasis Cure Now, the Dermatology Nurses' Association and the Society of Dermatology Physician Assistants. To learn more about Addressing Psoriasis(TM) or to enter the contest, visit www.addresspsoriasis.com.
Entrants are asked to submit a photo and personal essay explaining how they have overcome or tried to overcome the challenges of living with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and how the condition has impacted their personal style and the clothing they wear. Additionally, entrants are asked to explain how Tim Gunn may help them overcome style challenges associated with psoriasis and present their best selves to the world. Entries will be judged based solely on the inspirational nature of their story, and not on the entrants' use of specific treatment options.

Dammit you were so tasty,
A great part of the meal to celebrate Holidays,
Boy I was hungry,
Food was so good, conversation was great,
Time passes by – not a lot,
Why? Why? WHY?
(Crawls into fetal position to die)
Month: December 2011
Christ do I need a comment policy now?
I haven't bothered to do an 'About' page yet. But when I do a good portion of this post will go into it.
I don't mind comments on posts. I don't seek them, but I don't block them either. Some can be pretty interesting. But I know what works and what doesn't so here are some commenting rules:
- You must at least have a valid email address. Nobody else sees that but me. Go post on 4chan if you want to play secret squirrel. Even the most insightful comment won't be approved unless you have an email address – and for the thin of brain that does not mean email@example.com and all other variations.
- ALL first time comments are moderated – my days of managing spam are long gone.
- Disagreements are fine. I think being terribly agreeable all the time is pretty boring. But add something to the discussion. Have a little bit of intelligence and at least try to look like you've put some thought into it. If I happen to think you're particularly thick or bigoted in real life I tend to just go with entirely ignoring you – same thing works here.
- That's about it.
I may update this post at later dates. One thing about the internet is it never fails to surprise you.
Security Theatre
Since 9/11, Islamic terrorists have killed just 17 people on American soil, all but four of them victims of an army major turned fanatic who shot fellow soldiers in a rampage at Fort Hood … During that same period, 200 times as many Americans drowned in their bathtubs. Still more were killed by driving their cars into deer. The best memorial to the victims of 9/11, in Schneier's view, would be to forget most of the "lessons" of 9/11. "It's infuriating," … "We're spending billions upon billions of dollars doing this—and it is almost entirely pointless. Not only is it not done right, but even if it was done right it would be the wrong thing to do."
Presents are under the Tree – cue madness
When we eventually have little kids running around the house at Christmas, I fear for my sanity. MBH regresses terribly when presents are placed under the tree. She still loves the idea of Christmas. Whereas for me its a relaxy, keep the alcohol levels topped up and walk right up to that indigestion line time. She came in from work the other night,
"No touching"
I knew I should have had a water spray at the ready to keep her away from them.
"What did you get me???"
"Kinda defeats the whole point of Christmas Day that petal"
"An iPhone???!!"
"Er, no…"
"Er, really no" (Deep concern that the Downton Abbey DVD and Jamie's cookbook among other things is not going to go down as well as I thought…)
"I'm going to wrap yours and put them under the tree"
Now it's been a long, long time since I got excited over Christmas presents. I think it was over Star Wars figures in 1980 or something. But I am absolutely fascinated by her thought process when getting me presents.
There was the year she bought me a certificate for a plot of land on Mars. Seriously. We're not allowed to talk about that anymore. I burst out laughing when I opened it and was not allowed to ask the reasoning. Then there was the year where I was bitching about bag weight when I had to go to Africa in December for work. So I unwrapped a handheld luggage scale that Christmas. Thoughtful but missed the edict during bitching that there was "No way in hell I'm travelling as much next year". I have no idea where that scale is now.
So I try to remember that around October – November anything I may be talking about might be something I get at Christmas. Although I still can't remember wistfully wishing I owned land on Mars… :)
Ra Ra Rasputin
Now this is why I like my Ukulele. It's just great fun. Of course now I need to learn the chords to this. And I haven't mastered the art of playing and singing at the same time (unless I've had a few drinks…something about thinking less probably). I learned 'Have you ever seen the Rain' by Creedance Clearwater Revival last weekend which pleased me no end.
Data Commissioner and Facebook
Facebook is being urged by the Data Protection Commissioner to tighten security in order to ensure that users' personal information is kept private > Interesting phrases used there, 'Urged' and 'Informed Choice'
Talking about the Apocolypse
Well this isn't at all scary:
It was probably the most important research on flu in years, but most people won't be allowed to read it all. As New Scientist revealed in September, researchers at the University of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, created a mutated H5N1 bird flu that could go pandemic – and would be lethal to half its victims.
Thanks to Contagion I now know what an R0 value means (yay…). That was an okay sort of movie if you like to feel utterly depressed. I had to cheer myself up by pretending to sneeze on MBH and looking at the reaction on her face (Sick sense of humour) (Ha! Didn't intend that Pun at all).
Back in the day I took a semester course in Human Toxicology. Well it seemed interesting and my degrees have absolutely nothing to do with my current profession – utterly stellar at career planning me…
Anyway, it was fascinating and utterly horrifying at the same time. The Professor was an awesome guy who was also a WHO and UN advisor so this guy knew what he was talking about. Apart from the feeling of doom, all I remember from the course was learning to create Compound summaries – or whatever they were called. Basically for any compound you had to create a summary which gave every little piece of information you needed and all on one side of A4. I'm very good at summarising things now – so it's true that you can always get some skill from an obscure course.
I'm utterly convinced that Pandemics are a significant threat. Ease of travelling and overabundant use of antibiotics are just two of the factors that would contribute to a problem I reckon,
"I have a cold and feel bad Doctor"
"Here have a VERY STRONG ANTIBIOTIC and go away"
What can we do about it? Not a whole lot. But there are people who work tirelessly on it. This was a good talk given by Dr Larry Brilliant when accepting the TED Prize in 2006. This is also a very interesting talk by Seth Berkly on advances in Vaccine development.
Bioterrorism experts in the US immediately questioned whether the method for making such a plague should be published. Now the National Science Advisory Board for Biosecurity has recommended that the "general conclusions be published, but that the manuscripts not include the methodological and other details that could enable replication of the experiments by those who would seek to do harm"
Wow, that's surprising. Not like our American friends to overreact to a perceived threat – alway's seemed such a level headed bunch…COUGH
Anyway! Stifling research isn't the answer. The key to combating any potential pandemics is time and a quick understanding. Having some Homeland Security bunch hiding information is not what I'd call helpful.
I would have loved to have taken Biology and Chemistry, but my 'Career Advisor' back in my school days (who was also my woodwork teacher…yeahhh…) said because of my other subject choices I had to take Physics. I feckin hated Physics. Had a knack for Chemistry and Biology but Physics just left me a dry husk – didn't care at all. Our Physics teacher also subscribed to the 'Copy pages 101-123 and be quiet' education framework. Bloody useless.

Giants running back Brandon Jacobs knows how physical the 49ers' defense can be. Does that bother him? Absolutely not, and he welcomes some helmet-to-helmet contact in Sunday's NFC Championship Game.

I need a clever headline........
Like many of you out there I'm new to Match. I'm not sure about this online stuff, but several of my friends have had a great experience here and most wound up marrying their "match." So here it goes.... I tend to be reserved at first but once you get to know me you'll see I'm an outgoing person who loves the little things but also enjoys the finer things in life. I love my dog, Baxter. If you aren't a dog person, this probably won't work out. I come from a great family that loves and supports each other unconditionally, so finding someone with family values is important to me. I also have a great group of friends- most are now married and they are all starting families. Im on this site looking to join that club, not be a serial dater. Besides my family and my dog, my other love is my work. I own an Event Rental business which specializes in weddings, production, festivals, and corporate events. I don't have a set schedule and I am my own boss- which I love. I enjoy the freedom to do what I want, when I want. I really try and live up to the words "work hard, play harder." I want to be with someone who likes to be outdoors- especially on the water. I love boating, wake boarding, and the beach. In the winter time, take me to the snow! I love snowboarding and Mammoth is my favorite. In between those activities, I try and hit the gym three or four days a week. And yes.... Dinners, nights on the town, movie nights, lazy weekends, BBQs, sports bars, ect. are all part if the deal too. My match should be looking for a teammate to take on this life with. I'm looking for a beautiful woman (inside and out) who is ready share their life with me. You need to be smart- I don't mean a bunch of diplomas on the wall- but someone with common sense and some real life experience. I think it is important that we compliment and represent each other to the highest degree- a power couple if you will. I'm known to be a sarcastic at times, but it is all in good fun. If you are a super serious person..... Loosen up! Im an honest and true guy that hates liars. I don't possess that skill nor understand it, so if you are one of those, please move on. If you are still interested and want to know more, send me a message!

39 year old man | Miami, FL, USA | Seeking women 25-55 within 50 miles
Active within 24 hours
I'm an honest, caring, supportive, mature, easy going, and intelligent man.
I'm an honest man above all. I do not trust others until I am completely confident that I can my deposit trust to them. I choose to be critical about this, because once I TRUST someone, they become part of my family. Because in the end, that's all you have. This "Truth in Honesty" makes me extremely reliable, yet low key because i'm very observent (even though my apperance makes me stand out). I have 'like many others' experienced the ups and downs of relationships, but refuse to base future relationship outcomes solely on past experiences. I'm an open minded man with old fashioned values. I will never expect you to change, because I will never change (to thine own self be true). So what am I really looking for; i'm looking to build a bridge with someone I can trust, where no matter the distance between, we always see eye to eye. And that makes the world crystal clear. I want someone who is driven, but not obsessed. A woman who can charm with a smile and fill a room with her laugh. A woman that knows that a mirror is not truly a reflection of the self. I want someone who appreciates a man for who he is, not for what he can give them. As well as someone who is not afraid to dream, yet has a firm grasp of reality. She is comfortable in her own skin, who is also confident but not arrogant, nor a woman who craves attention by being loud and boisterous. I want a woman to complement me; who makes me feel whole. A woman who possesses priorities and is loyal, but as I mentioned, also has charm, a good sense of humor, and have CLASS. If you have tattoos, they must be of good taste (no tramp-stamps). Of course, there will be things that you also believe define you that you forgot to write down, or couldn't find the right words, so if you look me up, feel free to tell me more about yourself. In these pictures I weighed about 220 lbs. I now weigh 200 even. I'm not very good at taking pictures of myself, sorry about that. I will add more later. I am not a workout nut, but I try to keep in shape, and prefer if you also do the same. Basically, i'm a good man seeking a good woman. Please read what I have written carefully. I meant every word. I hope to hear from you. Sincerely; AL. p.s. To all you lovely ladies who sent me a wink, are thinking of sending one, or too shy to send one; kisses to all of you. Submitted from mobile

i think i have an idea of why people use coats but i wanna make sure so i dont buy one in vain.
why are coats (horse coats) used
keeping horses warm, if they have short hair, or if you want to exercise them in the winter and dont want to cool them off for hours (get hotter/sweatier because of the thick fur.) If you have to ask you probably dont need one, or need to consult, about it, with someone who knows your horse.
ok thank you all who post

Noise Survey Results
Our noise survey revealed some interesting information about the numbers of noise complaints being recieved by local authorities. We asked each local authority in the UK how many noise complaints they received, how much enforcement action they took and about officer staffing levels. In our full report we will compare the data received to national indicies. The analysis is yet to be completed but we can provide some preliminary findings and regional data.

I might say at the outset that I can be counted out if people around here develop a Not in My Backyard mindset in regards to medical marijuana.
I am fine with it if someone wants to set up a growing facility in my neighborhood for medical marijuana.
After all, by license from the state, the facility must be indoors, in a secure facility and can't be too close to schools or churches.
It has to be run by credit-worthy people of good character, who will have to undergo background checks.
Bar owners don't get that kind of scrutiny.
Naturally, the growing facilities are going to have good security. Just like the drug dealers of old, they are going to make sure no one takes their stuff.
The state is getting ready to issue two sets of marijuana licenses, some to growers and some to retail dispensaries. They could be the same facility, but they don't have to be.
There will be at least three but as many as 10 growing facilities, by statute. Three to five dispensary licenses are expected to be awarded at first, but there could more, depending on how demand develops.
(There are only 69 approved medical marijuana users in New London County, but that number is expected to grow, once the system gets rolling and new people come forward to be diagnosed for legally treatable conditions.)
The state Department of Consumer Protection has developed extensive rules about how it intends to issue these new licenses. It is a curious process, the launching of a new industry, one that will be closely regulated by the state.
The regulations pertain even to what kind of advertising will be allowed.
The deadline for submitting applications for the licenses, which will be expensive, because of large surety bonds that must be posted, is Nov. 15. None are in yet.
The state will begin awarding them around the first of the year. And the state's first pot stores could hang out their shingles by spring.
Municipalities may have some input because license applicants are supposed to show that the facilities they are proposing meet zoning and other local regulations.
The trouble is officials in many municipalities, where pot growing and selling is not addressed specifically in zoning regulations, are a little confused about what to do.
Some town zoning boards have written specific rules about pot selling and growing. Others are considering how the uses might fit existing codes. Indoor growing facilities, for instance, might be considered manufacturing.
I tracked down someone who has been talking to zoning officials in Stonington about building new greenhouses on an approved subdivision in Pawcatuck. It, well, smelled a little of a pot growing proposal, given the timing.
But Denny Smith, owner of the land at Jameson Way, assured me he is not interested in growing pot. Instead, he said he and his partner are planning off-the-grid hydroponic greenhouses that could produce up to a million pounds of vegetables year-round.
That may even be a more interesting project than the state's first legal pot growing greenhouses.
Some prospective growers have approached planning officials in New London, saying they might submit applications for something in the city.
The city Planning and Zoning Commission had a general discussion about the topic recently, with some members suggesting that no zoning changes may be needed if a growing facility is considered a manufacturing plant.
The board agreed to revisit the topic later, but I was glad to hear from their discussion that they seemed generally receptive to the idea. After all, it would be a new business, something New London can't afford to turn away.
I got the sense that NIMBY arguments against pot facilities won't find many sympathetic ears with New London officials.
But I do suspect that Connecticut may see some NIMBY marijuana movements soon, as the new dealers begin to lay out their hands.
This is the opinion of David Collins.

What is at stake for women in health care reform? Plenty.
Should being born female be considered a pre-existing condition that translates into higher health insurance premiums… or a C-section be classified as a pre-existing condition… or basic maternity care require a special rider on a woman's insurance policy? Does it seem even remotely fair that a victim of domestic violence be denied health insurance coverage? The insurance industry certainly thinks so.
The current system is failing women at every turn.
1) Less than half of women have the option of obtaining employer-based coverage on their own. Even when they work for an employer that offers coverage, one in six is not eligible to take it, often because they are part-time workers. They end up either covered through a spouse (41%), purchasing insurance directly through the individual market (5%), on public programs (10%), or uninsured (38%).
2) Married women in the 55 to 64 age group are particularly vulnerable to a discontinuity of coverage as their spouses go on Medicare. Among this age group, there is a drop in dependent employer-sponsored coverage from 39% to 34%.
3) More than 50 percent of women have delayed care due to cost!
4) State and federal laws that protect individuals with employer-sponsored insurance do not apply to the individual market. These include anti-discrimination protections in the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978, and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA"), which prohibits covered employers from charging different premiums or denying coverage based on age or health status.
The National Women's Law Center looked at premiums charged 40-year-old female non-smokers versus 40-year-old male smokers. In most states, it often costs more to be a woman than to be a male smoker; more than 60% of best-selling plans charged 40-year-old female non-smokers more than 40-year-old male smokers.
5) The vast majority of individual market health insurance policies do not cover maternity care. Even so, in some states, women still pay 50 percent more in premiums for policies that require a supplemental plan for maternity care.
6) It legal in eight states, plus the District of Columbia, for insurers to reject applicants who are survivors of domestic violence.
If you think this is shocking and discriminatory, please take a moment to sign the petition telling Congress to end insurance practices that discriminate against women.
If you are a woman, comfortable in a group policy, some of these items may have escaped your notice, but as unemployment rises, and fewer employers offer group insurance to their employees, more women are falling through the cracks.
Women are not a foreign species — reproductive care is basic care for women. Women take on the lion's share of responsibility for a family's health care, and it is women who must take the lead in the fight for reform. But that doesn't let men off the hook — the health and well-being, as well as the financial impact of women's health, affects the entire family.
Democrats in Congress who are pushing for reform need to speak up about the blatant discrimination against women by the health care industry, and how reform can no longer wait.
What can you do to help? Sign the petition and tell Congress: Being a Woman is NOT a Pre-Existing Condition.

Being a woman isn't a condition inasmuch as pregnancy isn't a disease.
I doubt that congress has the "Balls" to vote for universal health care. The petition that we need to start is a national referendum on congressional health care. 1. force the legislator to pay for their own health care as a part of budget cuts and 2. Take their insurance away after they are out of office. We get stiffed by congress when they are in office and have to pay them the rest of their lives.
Medicaid for all.
Simple, cost effective, easier. Wipe out insurance completely and just have NO ONE standing between you and your doctor.
It is still a man's world any way you look at it. Sex discrimination exists in all field of work and medicine and will continue until a woman is able to step up and take control. This was proven in the last election. Preexisting conditions should not be factored of consideration for affordable medical care because most of us just want basic medical care which is affordable. That is all we ask. Very simple. I would rather not even have to go to a doctor and many of us have fallen under care which starts with misdiagnosis and leads to unnecessary expenses, leading to ''preexisting conditions'' which then puts us under the category of those who cannot find affordable health care. This has to change if we want to continue to be a nation which promises life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Health and happiness go together and should be available to all, men and women alike.CEOs need to be written out of the picture and be forced to fend for themselves rather than living the parasitical lives which they live.
We need universal health care and a new model, the insurance model only benefits the insurance companies and big pharma. Extending medicare to all would be a good start to overhauling our health care system. If you agree contact your senators and reps about the following amendments.

Al H: There you go! You hit the nail on the head!
Hey people - I don't blame anyone for being angry at insurance companies, and espicially their executive management, all of which probably take home 7 figure incomes that they voted for THEMSELVES.
But they're not unique - this has become a culture in all American boardrooms, no matter what the industry.
Now if they had REAL COMPETITION which forced them to actually cut costs, lower premiums, stop excluding pre-existing conditions, cut out huge deductables, and be unable to drop you if you get sick, then they probably wouldn't be able to pay themselves these totally unrealistic salaries.
Therein lies the answer - a PUBLIC OPTION - not single payer - that's not good. I do not want a system that gives me FREE healthcare at the cost of higher taxes, because guess what - it won't be the CEO and executives that pay the higher taxes - it'll be YOU and ME.
We MUST have choice - if I don't want to use the public option and go private because I can afford it, I want that choice.
The public option must COST me if I am under 65, because then I can have a say in it, and because I don't want someone else to pay for my health care. But the public option MUST be affordable and provide a good quality of healthcare, even if I have to wait in line. I don't mind that as long as I am GUARANTEED health care and cannot be refused.
With regard to women's issues in this article, I couldn't agree more. Do you see them charge MEN more for having a prostate, testicles, and ahem?
Deborah W...we need a complete overhaul of all CEO's and Executives, not just healthcare. I spent 30 years in management. Some of the salaries are outrageous, the extra benefits you get as a manager, especially executive management is unfair...as examples long-term disability insurance paid for exes but not even offered the general population of workers, long-term care insurance paid for execs but again not offered the general population of workers, medical insurance that is enhance for and paid for execs, and the huge gaps in salaries between execs and other employees.
We need some strong laws for businesses but we also need a a more caring society. It has amazed me to listen/read what some of the general public is saying regarding people in financial trouble, who have lost their jobs, or can't afford health insurance.
I have always been proud to be an American but I am now ashamed of how we treat each other. What is it about America that can bring out the best in her people but also instill such greed, bigotry,selfishness and down right hatred.
I hope for a better America and I fear for her future if her people don't change.
It is in the very nature of women to have children periodically. It is completely stupid to charge one sex for an activity that involves both sexes. If a man is capable of sex and is fertile he is also likely to be involved in a 'pregnancy' situation. Considering the RANDY nature of our politicians they should pay a higher premium due to the unsafe sex they have with employees, hookers, interns, mistresses, gay prostitutes, boys and for all we know farm animals.
The entire purpose of insurance is to pool the risk - someone needs to have babies or the premiums would stop. Insurance companies should charge one premium for everybody and provide services like smoking cessation, exercise programs, eating advice, close control of known conditions etc. to IMPROVE THEIR RISK in the pool of customers they are stuck with. Removing people must be made impossible. This is the chief benefit of single payer. We will eventually have a form of single payer. The only question is how high will we allow the body count and cost to climb to before the change is made.
I'm Canadian, and, while we have issues similar to those described with our life insurance coverage, everyone has access to health care whether we smoke, are pregnant, are women, rich or poor or whatever.
Support your president in his proposal for universal health care! No one in a developed nation should have to worry about whether or not they will be covered if they have a health crisis or a baby!

An artist's impression of the 125-unit complex facing residents on Palmerston Street.
The Real Estate Institute says Perth residents may be forced to live next to high-rise apartments as developers bypass councils to get approval for large-scale developments.
City of Vincent residents stand to be short-changed by one such project, a six-storey, 125-unit complex on Palmerston Street, after the council referred its approval to the WA Planning Commission's Development Assessment Panel (DAP).
Situated on an old bottle yard site next to heritage-listed Robertson Park, the DAP is likely to approve the large-scale project despite several administrative blunders, including ignoring a condition of sale in 2002 that any development on the site be no higher than three storeys.
An artist's impression of the 125-unit complex facing residents on Palmerston Street.
DAPs were introduced by the Barnett Government in 2011 and gave developers the right to bypass local councils when seeking approval for larger developments.
REIWA recently warned homebuyers there were too many high-density developments around Perth and they would be overvalued once on the market.
It said thousands of inner-city units were currently being constructed and there would be a huge oversupply once complete.
Developer Peter Burke - son of ex-WA Premier Brian Burke - on Wednesday put construction of the Palmerston Street project out for public tender despite it still being considered by the DAP.
Acton Mount Lawley last week said it had already pre-sold 60 of Mr Burke's proposed 125 units but has since removed the listing after Fairfax Media raised the issue last week.
The DAP is considering Mr Burke's application again today after 61 residents and some Vincent councillors had issues with its height, density and impact of increased traffic on safety.
As well as awaiting a traffic impact study, the DAP requires more proof of approvals from other government agencies, including the State Heritage Office and the Department of Aboriginal Affairs, due to the site's historical significance.
Residents say they were unaware the DAP even existed prior to finding out it had the power to approve the development - not council.
They also weren't properly consulted when amended plans showing a six-storey development were put forward, with a "show of hands" at a community forum in early August deemed "proper consultation" by Vincent's planning department last week.
The DAP was satisfied that "time constraints" meant proper consultation with residents was not possible.
"Residents and buyers need to beware because under the Development Assessment Panel process, you could end up with a six-storey development next to your home," one opposing resident said.
"It is very disappointing that consistent process errors have meant that the intent of the City of Vincent at the time of selling the block in 2002 - to totally protect the rights of residents - has been totally ignored."
The DAP can approve high-rise developments beyond three storeys if they are satisfied it incorporates "design excellence".
Geoff Pearson, spokesman for a community action group that opposed the Kitchener Road development in Alfred Cove, wrote on Monday that recent DAP decisions were favouring developers while dismissing local concerns.
"The system is not pro-development, but pro-developer, which is perhaps why the industry so vehemently lobbies for it," he wrote in an opinion piece in The West Australian.
"The government should be seeking to effect a more balanced approach that demonstrably protects the rights of residents and local communities.
"DAP's widespread use of discretionary powers... is breeding an environment of uncertainty.
"[When] the DAP then refuses to explain its use of these powers, it is a sign the system lacks rigour and integrity."
The DAP refused to comment to Fairfax Media about the Palmerston Street development.
Another Vincent council blunder
Fairfax Media revealed early last month the City of Vincent was more than $3 million in debt after an extraordinary budget oversight by its finance department - which believed the administration was $3 million in surplus - leaving a shortcoming of $6 million and some future projects on the scrapheap.
The same administration that failed to acknowledge the 2002 "condition of sale" on the Palmerston Street site also ignored correspondence from the Department of Local Government about the accuracy of its finances in 2012 and 2013.
Former mayor Alannah MacTiernan told Fairfax Media last month she raised concerns about the "management skills" of some Vincent staff members to the DLG, but never heard back.
Other high-rise development sites being considered within the City of Vincent include a petrol station on the corner of Fitzgerald and Angove streets and an old unit complex on the corner of Bulwer and Palmerston streets.
"I really hope people will get behind their local precinct groups as it's about the only way to look after the needs of residents and home owners," the resident said.

Originally written on Low Brow Sports | Last updated 4/1/13
Bucks point guard Brandon Jennings took to Twitter after the team's loss to the Thunder, questioning his coach Jim Boylan's late-game timeout. Of course, he deleted it soon after, but Sean Highkin of USA TODAY Sports has an image of it: Highkin writes: Jennings has made no secret of his unhappiness with the Bucks in recent months. As far back as last year, he was looking ahead to free agency and expressing a desire to sign in a big market. He did not sign an extension to his rookie contract with the Bucks before the October deadline, and openly talked about being intrigued by the Dallas Mavericks earlier this season. Jennings has even hinted he might do something unprecedented for player as high-profile as he is, and bypass restricted free agency by signing the qualifying offer this summer, essentially killing the Bucks' leverage to keep or trade him beyond next year.

30,000 volumes, including first edition works by Geoffrey Chaucer, Charles Darwin, Charles Dickens, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Jules Verne, and H.G. Wells
The Orendorff Music Library, located in Cogswell Hall, is where you'll find our excellent music collections. Thousands of scores, recordings, and circulating works are complemented by unique specialized research collections.

Our collection development model employs a "bibliographer-liaison" model. Each academic department has a dedicated librarian (the bibliographer) who works directly with a specific faculty member in the department (the departmental liaison) to identify materials to purchase, and to make sure that the items being added to our collections support the academic needs of each department.
