The pool
Nothing, the Hotel was nothing like it showed on line. The rooms were not good. Holes in the wall, unclean bed linens I give this Hotel no stars at all. I will never stay there again. Showing and outdoor pool, it was a disservice to the guest.
There was nothing to like, so not pleased.
No toile papers room smell
It was clean and well designed. Breakfast was good
The front desk staff is top notch. Very accommodating. Very friendly.
Breakfast had a good selection and waffle maker was great.
Pool was closed.
nothing room was not clean , did not bath or shower due to unclean bath tub and floor light in bathroom wud not go out . carpet was not maintained . room was hot on arrv.did not put air on before we arrv. even the grounds were unkept !
refer to previous message ! sorry didn't read what i liked i just spilled my feelings re.the room .
There isnt anything I liked. We stayed here at my boyfriend's insistence that he'd been here before... He made a mistake- he'd previously stayed next door at the Quality Inn
Out room had bed bugs... Need I say more? I got bit up all nite & found them all on the sheets after searching for a source of the bites. The shower js Mildewed, The sheets hard & scratchy, i can go
On- but basically avoid this place.
Shady characters hanging around. Building was dirty and looked run down. I did not even go in the room I did not feel safe just being in the parking lot. Unfortunately I booked the room that night so I doubt I will be getting my money back. This was a horrible experience and I will never stay at a Super 8 again.

Nowhereisland leaves its final port of call - big picture
Nowhereisland leaves Bristol after a 2,500-mile journey from the Arctic. The 'island', made out of soil from beneath a melting glacier in northern Norway, cost £500,000 to create and is part of the Cultural Olympiad programme. While the project has been criticised for its huge cost and environmentally unsympathetic construction, the artist Alex Hartley says he hopes the 'utopian idea' of the island will 'make people think afresh about Britain'.

A few years ago, former video game executive Kevin Yu was cooking for a girlfriend on Valentine's Day when he discovered he'd forgotten the mushrooms for the mushroom soup. But that was just the start.
When it comes to wrangling the Thanksgiving meal onto the table, one motto gets it right: Be prepared.
Let's face it, our national day of feasting features multiple dishes, all of which require different cooking times, temperatures and techniques.
Spring is back and so are farmers markets. And that means a whole new chance to make friends with strange and unusual vegetables. Or to rehabilitate some old familiars.
Nelson Cho isn't just Chinese-American. He's Chinese-Cuban-Peruvian-American. Which means he grew up on the shredded beef dish ropa vieja, the fried chicken called chicharrones de pollo, and other Cuban specialties.
Strategic splurging can keep your budget - and your time - under control
A roaring grill and an icy brew are almost as integral to July Fourth as fireworks. But today's burgers and beers affairs bear little resemblance to the buffet served during our nation's first Independence Day.
When salsa overtook ketchup as America's favorite condiment in the 1990s you had to know that "taco night" wasn't far behind.
The South's love affair with fried chicken, collard greens, gumbo and biscuits is being challenged - and changed - by an unlikely influence. The North.

For my buck, the ERTS series is a go to. It's a decent format to print 8x10, without losing a lot of area as you would with 6x6. Plus, almost any lens can be had for under $200 in good shape. Backs, I've never paid over $15 for.
Compared to my Hasselblad, I shoot the ERTS more simply because I've been able to afford more options for it, it's lighter, and faster to shoot with the AE-III prism and Speed grip. I'd have to re-mortgage my house to buy half of the Bronica stuff I own to fit my Hassy. Sure, the Hassy's quality is far and above the Bronica's, but in almost anything but studio settings I'll back the ETRS.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 1/23/13
HOUSTON -- The Denver Nuggets were proficient in aspects the Houston Rockets frequently utilize to subdue opponents, and those skills helped the Nuggets to a 105-95 victory over the Rockets on Wednesday night at Toyota Center. The Nuggets (26-18) dominated the Rockets (22-22) in both transition baskets and points in the paint during the decisive third quarter, expanding their two-point halftime lead into an 82-66 cushion heading into the fourth. The Nuggets outscored the Rockets 11-0 in fast-break points and tallied 20 of their 36 points in the third quarter in the paint. Houston worked itself into a corner by fouling early and often following the intermission, and the Nuggets generated momentum with proficiency at the line. Denver didn't waste that opportunity to pounce, flipping a three-point deficit into a 72-59 lead with a 20-4 blitz. Wilson Chandler opened the run with a game-tying 3-pointer at the 7:45 mark of the third before Danilo Gallinari sandwiched seven points ...

Dwyane Wade's Young Son Balls Like His Dad In Impressive Highlight Reel [Video]
Zaire Wade is only 10 years old, but he'll have big shoes to fill if he aspires to be a professional basketball player. After all, his Father Dwyane Wade just won his third NBA championship with the Miami Heat. However, if this highlight reel is any indication, Zaire seemed to inherit a lot of his Dad's basketball genetics.

Miami Newscast Talks To Fans Who Left Game 6 Early, Think Heat Lost [Video]
When you break it down to its core, there are two kinds of sports fans. Good ones and bad ones. Another way to phrase it would be, real ones and fake ones. A few thousand fake Miami Heat fans left Game 6 of the NBA Finals early last night, accepting defeat while the Heat's championship hopes hung in the balance. A local Miami news station captured the embarrassing exodus, talking to "fans" who thought Miami lost. The newscast also captured the losers who left the game, only to attempt reentry into American Airlines Arena when Game 6 reached overtime.

NORTHRIDGE, Calif., Sept. 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Consuming the soy germ-based compound Natural S-equol and the supplement SE5-OH containing Natural S-equol did not increase the risk of estrogen-sensitive breast cancer, according to a study in the September issue of the peer-reviewed journal Food and Chemical Toxicology. SE5-OH containing Natural S-equol reduced menopause symptoms in postmenopausal women in previously reported controlled trials in the United States and in Japan.
"A major concern of health care professionals and women in managing menopausal symptoms is that a treatment might increase the risk of developing or progressing breast cancer," said Belinda H. Jenks, Ph.D., Director of Scientific Affairs & Nutrition Education at Pharmavite LLC, the makers of Nature Made® vitamins and minerals and a subsidiary of Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., which supported the study. "This study is the first to directly examine the effects of Natural S-equol alone and SE5-OH containing Natural S-equol, which we are developing to reduce menopause symptoms, directly on the growth of human breast cancer cells in an established mouse model as well as in directly in cell cultures. The study documented that Natural S-equol itself, as well as SE5-OH, did not increase or stimulate the growth of these breast cancer cells."
The safety of SE5-OH containing Natural S-equol previously was confirmed by standard animal testing. Also, studies involving postmenopausal women who consumed SE5-OH containing Natural S-equol have not observed any safety problems, including analysis of breast and reproductive tissues and of hormone levels, and have documented significant reductions in hot flashes frequency, in muscle and joint discomfort. More information about S-equol and SE5-OH, including study results, is at http://www.naturalequol.

The Highest Honda Cub in the world . Ever
Posted on February 3, 2013 by sean
The Highest Honda Cub in the World.!!! After a 5 day expedition to Ojos de Salado Chile Team Honda Vs The World reaches 5706m!! The under resourced, ill equipped and barely prepared team succeeded in riding, pushing and wrestling the Honda up mountain to reach an altitude of 5706 m. Unusually deep snow for the time of year prevented us from riding higher and meant we had to haul the bike over sections to reach our altitude. Our aim when we set out was to reach an altitude higher than the highest road in the world at 5565m in Tibet.

2002 Mazda Tribute Q&A
2002 Mazda Tribute Question: Low Charging Voltage
What would cause my car to have low charging voltage? The battery is good and the diode ripple is normal. - lmurphy
Answer 1
Where are you measuring the charge voltage? I wonder if you have bad grounds or voltage drops. Try measuring the voltage right at the battery terminal of the alternator. Engine running charge voltage at the Battery terminal at the alternator should be 14.6 volts or so, what ever voltage you have there you should have across the battery if not you have a voltage drop. With a pair of set of jumper cables attach one negative lead to battery negative terminal and the other negitive lead of the battery jumper cables to the engine block, does the charge voltage raise? If you want to check for voltage drop I saw a youtube video that was good. When you checked the diode pattern did you use an oscilloscope to check the diode pattern? - patrick mannion

Five NASCAR drivers have declined an invite to meet with the President of the United States next Wednesday at the White House. Carl Edwards, Kurt Busch, Tony Stewart, and Kevin Harvick are not attending the event citing "scheduling conflicts" as their reasons. This has many people in an uproar. People are saying it is "disrespectful" and that there could be nothing more important in their lives than meeting the President.
But that is simply untrue.
As of now it stands simply as a "scheduling conflict", but we don't know for sure what their true reasons are. NASCAR drivers have very busy schedules. Some don't even lay down in their own beds for weeks at a time. They are constantly traveling to sponsor appearances, track appearances, and autograph signings for fans. Drivers maybe get two or three days a week at home for some down time.
For all we know Carl Edwards has a meeting with a sick child from the Make-A-Wish Foundation. To some people, Carl is just supposed to cancel that to go meet with the president. Others have said "take the kid with him to meet the President as well," but that is simply a ridiculous suggestion.
I'm not saying that Edwards or any of the other four drivers actually do have a meeting like that, but rather I'm simply using that as an example.
The Chase for the Championship starts one week after this meeting with the President. Kevin Harvick is locked into the Chase, but has been struggling for the past month. Maybe his team has decided that they need to focus on getting prepared as best as possible to fight for the championship. That should certainly be allowable. After all, these drivers do have a job to do.
I also found it amazing how the reason cited was a "scheduling conflict", but people immediately assumed that these five drivers declined the invite because they disagree with the President politically. Nowhere was that said. To jump to that conclusion is absurd. And even if it was a political reason, so what? They have every right to disagree with the President, and every right to decline this invite. That is one of the many great things about being American.
Another thing is that this event is supposed to honor last year's Chase drivers. So why is it being held a week before this year's Chase starts?
This same event was held last year as well, only last year Kyle Busch did not attend. How come nothing was said about Busch missing the event last year? Why was it okay for Busch to miss it last year, but this year it is a huge issue for the five who are not attending?
This should be a non-issue. The drivers are allowed to decide whether or not to go to this event, and they have chosen not to. That should be the end of the story. It should not be about their political beliefs. There is no reason for people to be getting so upset over this. I'm sure the President himself doesn't even care.
i wouldn't be shocked if we end up finding out that the drivers end up canceling what ever they previously had scheduled and go to the White House just because of the peer pressure.
Regardless of the driver's decisions to not attend, it is time that we all put this issue to rest.

The Indianapolis Colts entered Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers without their head coach and uncertain of the direction this season was taking. Andrew Luck more than answered the call in such a big moment, though, establishing the Colts as legitimate playoff contenders. Luck, the first pick in April's NFL draft and a perennial superstar for a few years now, undertook the responsibility and the pressure of leading his teammates to a hard-fought victory, even in the absence of their coach.

Okay, I'm bawling, Hollis. Such a beautifully written, bittersweet piece.
I recently had to say goodbye to my dachshund of nearly 16 years. My little guy was with me through all of what you described above. Always giving unconditional love, never judging my actions or questioning my decisions… just happy to be along for the ride. We had to help him make his journey as well. It was so very sad.
Good Lord, I miss that big, goofy tennis ball smile.
I would love to see a picture of the beautiful cat.

Meanwhile, I would like to get the FreeBSD machine working again for use in the short term. I have better things to do with my time than upgrade to the latest bells and whistles if the old ones are working OK. In this case the old machine was working fine until the hard drive failure described.
So, having said that, do you have any helpful suggestions?

How the Internet has changed the way local musicians do business
"I've never even considered realistically trying to go look for a label to support what we do," says Joshua Lowe of local acoustic American roots band, the Juncos. "If you asked me this 10 years ago I may have had a different answer, but ... almost all the bands that I know have their own labels. They do it themselves and they make the most money out of it."
Local musicians seeking audiences outside of the Santa Cruz bubble cite live shows, community support, and grassroots outreach as the most successful means of promotion available. With the availability of online sale venues, musicians across the genres are taking on a more do-it-yourself attitude when it comes to promotion.

dozen types of serotonin receptors, including at least two auto receptor1 populations. This section will review the evidence concerning changes in brain and cerebrospinal fluid levels of serotonin and its metabolites, and changes in a few of the serotonin receptors.
Initial studies of the serotonergic system in suicide victims reported modestly low levels of brainstem serotonin and/or its metabolite 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA). The original assessments were methodologically limited. First, postmortem assays do not distinguish where the neurotransmitter was localized at the time of death and consequently, its functional importance. Second, serotonin and 5-HIAA levels drop rapidly after death. About a 70 percent loss of serotonin occurs after death and removal of the brain to the freezer prior to assay. This means that group differences must be detected in the residual 30 percent of the serotonin or metabolite. Nevertheless, most studies found low serotonin or 5-HIAA in the brainstem of suicides (Table 4-1). Only three of nine studies found low 5-HIAA levels, and no studies found low 5-HT in the prefrontal cortex (Table 4-1). Four of six studies of other brain regions also reported low serotonin or 5-HIAA (not shown). Postmortem interval differences do not appear to explain discrepancies in the literature (Arango and Mann, 1992), probably because most of the decline in indolamine levels occurs in the first 2 hours postmortem and all published studies of suicide victims have a longer postmortem delay.
Low serotonin or serotonin turnover in suicide appears to be confined to some brain regions. This may reflect the limitations of the assay methodology, which might not be sufficiently sensitive to measure the lower concentrations of serotonin and 5-HIAA in areas that contain less than the brainstem. Alternatively, there may be a regional localization of changes in serotonin levels or turnover, such that serotonin and 5-HIAA in the terminal fields are altered in some areas and not others. That conclusion is consistent with receptor mapping studies by Arango et al. (1995) and Mann et al. (2000).
The reduction in serotonin or 5-HIAA in the brainstem of suicide victims is independent of diagnostic category (Mann et al., 1989),with a similar degree of reduction seen in patients with depression, schizophre-

The Los Angeles Angels have reportedly agreed to sign Josh Hamilton to a deal worth around $125 Million over five years. The Angels had a disapointing season last year, and are not gun shy about spreading some cash around. This all comes from a source with direct knowledge of the deal told ESPN Dallas talk show host Ben Rogers. The Angels have a power filled line-up to say the least, featuring Hamilton, Pujols, and Trout. Look out A.L.. According to ESPN: Hamilton, 31, has batted .304 in his big-league career, all but 90 games of it in Texas. He has provided big power in the middle of the Rangers' lineup, helping the team to World Series appearances in 2010 and '11. Hamilton hit .285 with 43 homers and 128 RBIs in an inconsistent 2012 season that didn't finish well; a vision problem caused him to miss five games, he struggled offensively and he had an error in the AL West-deciding loss to Oakland.

1. This cake looks amazing. You could describe it as "delicious."
2. You could also describe it as …"moist." *cringe*
3. But the "m" word is an awful word. You hate even thinking it.
4. It's not like you have a problem with words like "wet" or "damp."
5. It just feels gross to say … you know … "moist." *shudder*
6. It might have something to do with the "oi" sound. Like in "ointment" or "goiter."
7. But it probably has more to do with the fact that that word makes you think more of bodily fluids than cake.
8. You don't want to think about bodily fluids while enjoying cake, whether it's a sweaty palm…
9. …or, you know…
10. It's an innocent enough word, but you just feel dirty using it. You feel like you need to wash up after hearing it.
11. Also, it comes from the Latin "muscidus" which meant "slimy," "moldy," "musty" and gave us the word "mucus."
12. And you're not alone. A lot of people don't like the "m" word either.
13. So please, just stop using the "m" word.
14. Thanks!

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A federal appeals court has barred logging in the Sierra Nevada forest.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals says the federal government failed to explore other ways to raise money to fight forest fires when it approved a plan to award timber contracts to cut down trees on three sites.
The Forest Service says the logging of commercially valuable trees is needed to help pay for thinning of less desirable smaller trees and brush.
Environmental groups say the logging plan fails to protect scarce species such as the California spotted owl, martin and Pacific fisher. Attorney General Jerry Brown joined the environmental groups in appealing a lower court decision last year that authorized the government to allow the timber contracts.

Scruffy is fine for presenting GW cos there are mucky jobs and plants that can tear clothes. Scruffy is not suitable for presenting Chelsea. It's not as though he can't afford a decent suit so it must be a lack of judgement. Not enough to be a nice chap. Have to look the part and know what you're talking about to present the biggest such show in the world.
And I still think the original post was a plant. We've had them before when he's been slammed for the content or style of the round the world series and the ones on Italian and French gardens.
Epsom salts can correct magnesium deficiencies and are very useful for ericaceous plants suffering from an inability to manufacture chlorophyll because they can't access iron and magnesium in alkaline soil or compost or watered with hard water.
Roses will appreciate some Epsom salts as a tonic but need a more complete food to grow and stay healthy. Dilute 1 tablespoon in one gallon/5mls of water and pour over the plant using the spray nozzle on your watering can so it gets all over the foliage.
I think you need to be more open minded and try a new experience.
There are some amazing displays of veggies - one done by veg growers from WG Robinson - http://www.rhs.org.uk/shows-events/rhs-chelsea-flower-show/chelsea-photo-galleries - and the others on the Waitrose stand where they mixed fruit and veg with flowers for some amazing. Both very inventive and there are also potager and mini allotment displays in the floral marquee - http://www.rhs.org.uk/shows-events/rhs-chelsea-flower-show/chelsea-photo-galleries and a very good one all done by schools in the RHS school gardening project which is in my photos.
I think a good, regular feed will help them get started. It can sometimes take a year or so before they really get going as they can be busy extending their root system before they get going with top growth.
Iron is not enough. All plants need a balanced diet of minerals and trace elements to grow well although amounts and mixes differ between species. Did you use ordinary garden soil or specialist comost mixes in your pots? Either way, the nutrients will have been depleted after just 3 or 4 months and need regular topping up by you.
Roses are gross feeders and need nitrogen, potassium, potash, magnesium and other trace elements to grow healthy roots, leaves and flowers. Give them a weekly feed of liquid rose or tomato feed from spring to mid summer. Give them a top dressing of slow release rose food or pelleted chicken manure every spring.
Have a firkle and check there are no vine weevil or other nasties lurking in the pots and stand them on feet so they drain properly when watered and aren't drowning the roots.
They look fine to me but desperately in need of a good drink and a feed and then planting in a well prepared hole with a support to cling to.
See this thread for planting advice - http://www.gardenersworld.com/forum/plants/planting-clematis/347298.html
Places like Birmingham get prestige and recognition which must be a help when fighting funding cuts from the Council. Town and Parks departments are not to be sniffed at. Alan Titchmarsh and Roy Lancaster both started in their local department. At Tatton there's a whole section on municipal plantig and displays with medals and prizes to be won and career paths to be smoothed.
The nurserymen and women get loads of orders from their stands at Chelsea and so, undoubtedly, do the garden designers so yes, it's all about networking and generating business. Lots of the gardens end up in a new home too.
A few years ago one was bought lock, stock and barrel by a man who wanted an instant garden for his new home. Some, such as the Alzheimers or Hope for Heroes get rebuilt at homes or hospitals which provide special care. Bunny Guinness's potager garden was rebuilt in a London school to help with teaching their curriculum. Chris Beardshaw built one of his gardens with teh help of the special needs kids who lived in the home and garden that inspired it.
Don't be fooled by the superficial glamour. Lots of good stuff comes out of Chelsea and is aided and abetted by the RHS.
Mauritanicus is the clue. I find none of the pennisetums or stipas is hardy enough in my garden but carex, molinia and miscanthus are very happy. Many of them can be grown from seed so have a look here - http://www.plant-world-seeds.com/ I've been very pleased with them.
It is very disheartening but thanks for the sympathy and encouragement.
This is my prized hosta Sum and Substance which was huge. Its numerous large and smaller pals in the ground have fared no better and I've just found that all my lovely Firefox Lilies in a pot have had their fat flower buds stripped. Nothing to do but put them in a quiet corner and feed them for the rest of the season and hope for better next year.
Fortunately I bought some new Stella Viola lillies at Chelsea and they should grow and flower later this summer.
I bought two of these and, once I realised they don't take to heavy pruning like their alba sibirica cousins, they both settled down and have been very happy. These days I trim them lightly and occasionally remove whole stems but never more than a third at a time.
They are so happy they have suckered so at the front I am constantly removing babies which I pot up to give away or sell at an anuual charity plant fair. The one at the back was moved 4 years ago so I had a better view of it in winter from the sofa. It produced 12 babies from bits of root left behind in its old site. I replanted those in a new bed I made over on the far end of my garden. This year I found 7 new babies in the old site and have given them all away.
Moral? These things sucker like mad so beware and they should be sold with a warning and at very low prices. Definitely not a premium plant that's hard to propagate.

During one consulting firm stint in China, with banjo in tow, Washburn gathered with friends after work to do karaoke. At the end of the evenings to break things up, she'd play an American folk song on the banjo. But that was the extent of her performance experience.
By 2004, Washburn decided to make the move semi-permanently to China. But first she decided to embark on a road trip that led to West Virginia and Kentucky where she learned new tricks from old hill country masters of the banjo. She then made her way to the International Bluegrass Music Association convention in Nashville where she met some other female banjo pickers. As they jammed, an A&R scout from Sugarhill Records liked what he heard and asked them to cut a three-song demo.
While that band never jelled, the demo turned heads at Nettwerk, and, through mutual friends, Washburn hooked up with Fleck, who met her at a pickers' party. She gave him a copy of her latest tunes.
"I started listening to Abby's demo as I was driving and I kept going faster and faster," Fleck recalled. "I ended up getting pulled over for a ticket. But I kept thinking, is this as good as I think it is? I loved her songs, her voice, her mix of Chinese and American folk."
On a hiatus from his band the Flecktones, Fleck tagged along with Washburn for her second tour of China after her first solo CD in 2005, "Song of the Traveling Daughter," a bilingual disc highlighted by the title track sung in Mandarin. For the second CD, and first featuring the Sparrow Quartet as a distinct unit, Fleck said, "We fought for everything to be excellent and unusual, with a lot of detail to make all the songs be special and right."
The group's singular soundscape is steeped in a chamber music-meets-bluegrass sensibility and buoyed by artistically fashioned arrangements. Influences include lyrical Sichaun folk songs, American field recordings and work songs, Béla Bartok and Giacomo Puccini's experiments with music from the East, and a meld of American old-timey, revival gospel, grooved blues and mountain yodeling.
Even though she never planned on being a performer, Washburn says she's pleased that she's onstage now instead of working in some area of Sino-American comparative law, which was her original plan.
"It all goes back to when I was first offered a record deal," she said. "The big question was, what do I want to say? I can use my voice as a foreigner working in the Chinese market or use it as an artist who has something important to say on a cultural level.
"In one way, I had my nose to the ground to return to China," she continued. "I had passed my TOEFL exam so that I could get my masters in law at a Chinese university. But, as it turned out, I'm getting to be a part of China in another way, by, like the Dalai Lama said, attempting to be engaged with a spirit of peace."
That attitude has been a guiding light in recent times, what with the clampdowns in Tibet and subsequent international protests, and then the catastrophic earthquake in Sichaun province, where Washburn has close friends in the capital city of Chengdu, all of whom she reports are safe.
Washburn's next chapter of art trumping politics will come this summer when she and the Sparrow Quartet perform at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, which is already teeming with international controversy manifested by the protest-plagued torch relay.

FIFA have moved to clarify an interview with Sepp Blatter in which he suggested the vote to stage the 2022 World Cup could be re-run. There has been speculation the tournament in nine years' time could be switched from summer to winter due to the oppressive heat in the Middle East at that time of year. Spanish newspaper AS claim in an interview that Blatter admitted that would "affect the basic conditions of the World Cup" and could prompt the voting process to be re-visited if one of the other 2022 candidates objected. However, world governing body FIFA dispute the content of the interview and say Blatter said it was a "hypothetical scenario" as the dates of the World Cup will be decided on by the tournament organising committee.

Why would anyone want to leave the Matrix? You can live in semi-comfortable life in modern-day times in exchange for being a battery to the robots. I'd find that a much more enjoyable life then living day to day underground and eating some nasty looking slop.

BREAKING PHOTO: Gaza earlier today after more than 30 rockets fired into Israel today. Via Mohammed Saber pic.twitter.com/GINC8TOGtl
— Breaking News Feed (@PzFeed) July 29, 2014
Despite international outcry over civilian casualties, Israel escalated its strikes on Gaza yesterday. One of the strikes knocked out an electric power plant in Gaza that started a large fire and left many residents in the dark. Disabling the power plant also meant water, sewage, and hospitals were offline at a time when they were needed the most.
The Palestinian death toll for the day was at least 100 with the total Palestinian death toll since Israel launched Operation Protective Edge on July 8th of over 1,200. 53 Israeli soldiers have died during the ground invasion of Gaza with three Israeli civilians dying from Hamas strikes.
The power plant strike was part of Israel's expanded bombing campaign in Gaza which seems set to continue as talks of a truce go nowhere at the moment. Secretary of State John Kerry continues to fumble on getting any agreement and neither Hamas nor Israel can reach terms the other will accept.
Regarding the talks, Osama Hamdan, a Hamas official in Beirut, said: "On principle, we have no objection and accept. A delegation will be formed, and we might leave for Cairo soon." Israel favors Egypt as a broker, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described Egypt's original proposal for a cease-fire, which Israel accepted and Hamas rejected, as "the only game in town."
In Washington, Secretary of State John Kerry signaled Tuesday that the Obama administration had not abandoned its hope of arranging a cease-fire. Mr. Kerry emphasized that Mr. Netanyahu had told him on Monday that he might accept a truce if it would allow Israeli forces to continue to operate against Hamas's tunnels, some of which run under the border into Israeli territory and have been used for attacks.
The US-backed military junta in Egypt's proposal was rejected previously and the idea that there would be a cease fire while Israel occupied Gaza to look for tunnels is rather ridiculous. If Hamas was willing to accept occupation there would not be any rocket fire in the first place.
Given that Israel has already bombed UN schools, hospitals, and a power plant, the only real prospect for a cease fire might be if Israel so levels Gaza that there is nothing left to bomb. Which, if current operations continue, might be sooner than later.

My sister-in-law just gave birth at 24 weeks to twins. How can we be helpful and supportive from across the country? What can we send that might be helpful? Are there any sentiments that can be unintentionally hurtful?
This thread has some useful information in it-- http://www.mothering.com/community/t/591876/what-we-wish-our-family-and-friends-knew-about-having-a-preemie-nicu-sick-infant
The thing that I hated most was being asked when my preemie was coming home. I was asked hundreds of times. Believe me... if I knew when he was coming home I would have been shouting it from the rooftops. Every time I was asked it reminded me that it was going to be a long time before I brought my baby home.
As far as being supportive from a distance.. I would have LOVED if someone would have gotten me a gift for my baby. I felt like no one wanted to give us anything because they weren't sure if he was going to survive. There are several people on etsy.com who sell micro preemie hats. Find out the rules at their NICU though first. Some are allowed to bring clothing in and some aren't. Gift cards to the hospital coffee shop or nearby restaurants would have been nice too. We pretty much shut down during the NICU stay and didn't do normal things like grocery shop or cook for ourselves.

Thanks for the reply. I read through the thread you suggested and it really was very helpful. We have a better idea of *how* to be careful and *what* not to say. I would love to give her babies gifts, but the situation has become more complicated. Sadly, one of the babies passed
Should I make one gift or two? Would including the angel baby in gift giving honor his memory or trigger trauma for the parents? By giving only one gift to the baby in nicu, would it feel like we have forgotten his brother? Is it better for us to just do nothing and stay away? Or would that be hurtful too?
I know it's a really delicate situation, and we just want to do the right thing by her. I really would appreciate any advice from anyone who has "been there".
How very hard for them :( I think it would be nice if you sent two gifts. I am sure they will have some sort of keepsake or memory box full of all the things from their son's hospital stay. I'm not sure what kind of gifts you were planning on making, but I think if I were this mama I would like to have something other than medical stuff in my keepsake box.
Married to my other half
Mama to Madeline (07-10-07) and Finley (10-17-11)
I'm so sorry to hear about your family's loss.
Absolutely give a gift to the twin that passed. I know with twins people often give 2 of something- this might be a better situation to give 2 different-but-equal gifts. Maybe a stuffed animal type toy for the one who passed and an outfit for the other. Or a mix CD (do people listen to CDs anymore?), one for each twin, each a little different. And I would agree for gifts for the parents: gas cards, VISA gift card, or maybe a box full of easy to eat snacks like nuts, granola, dried fruit, and a little bit of chocolate. Also, a nice cotton bathrobe is always a good gift because it's perfect for skin to skin and for when baby comes home and you never make it to getting dressed.
Would including the angel baby in gift giving honor his memory or trigger trauma for the parents? By giving only one gift to the baby in nicu, would it feel like we have forgotten his brother? Is it better for us to just do nothing and stay away? Or would that be hurtful too?
I had 24-week twin boys. They're 16 now. I'm so sorry to hear one of your nephews didn't survive.
I cannot say for sure how I'd feel about losing a baby, although I had many occasions to think about it. I do know how much it hurt when mine were in the hospital and all the friends who had been so excited during my pregnancy just seemed to vanish, when I most wanted to feel I wasn't alone. And I didn't have jerky friends. Really. I understood later that they just didn't have any idea what to say and were afraid of making it worse. On top of it, the babies' father and our parents all had very different, personal reactions to the stress of having such sick babies and worrying if they might die. We weren't much help to each other, so it would've been doubly nice to have someone outside that innermost circle, to just be with me.
So, absolutely don't "do nothing and stay away". Visit if you can. Don't make your sister host you in her home right now, but it'd be nice to go to the hospital with her and see her children. Take her to lunch or go on a walk. At least call, every few days, for a while. Maybe she'll just want to be quiet and listen to you chatter. Or she may want to share all the details. After all, medicines, treatments, technology and statistics are probably the biggest things on her mind, right now. Ask about both babies - so she knows it's OK to talk to you about them. But beyond that, don't feel responsible to decide what she should talk about. There's not a right or wrong, here. Follow her lead.
Try as hard as you can not to give her platitudes. If she is spouting her own platitudes (which some people certainly find comforting), then by all means agree with her, however ridiculous it sounds. She's grieving. But I really hated hearing trite, pretty, oversimplified things that were somehow supposed to make me feel better, when I was in the middle of a complex, scary situation. My children might die and if they lived, they might have serious disabilities I wasn't sure I'd be capable of dealing with. A sweet little saying just seemed so silly, in the face of that, even though I knew people meant well.
You might tell her you know there aren't any magic words to make things easier, but you care and want to be there for her. And if she is really discouraged, you need to assure her she'll be able to handle whatever she must deal with. She doesn't have any choice and besides, she's strong. If she doesn't think so, those of you who love her will be there to help her, until she realizes it.
If you're making a gift (like a blanket), you should make one for each baby. There is no reason to fear bringing up painful thoughts. She is thinking about him anyway. Let her know she's not alone in that - you thought of him, too. He meant something to other people in the world, however brief his life.

By Cathy Genthner
Eleven-year old Forrest Plaisted of Gorham, an avid cross country skier, gets his skiing for free. As a participant in Maine's WinterKids Passport Program, he joins other fifth through seventh graders in winter recreational activities at no cost, as long as there is a paying adult. Often included are free lessons and rental equipment. Forrest's father, Michael Plaisted likes the idea of keeping kids active. "It encourages kids to get outside in the winter and get some exercise instead of sitting in front of the television."
WinterKids is a nonprofit organization committed to helping children develop lifelong habits of health, education and physical fitness through outdoor, winter activity. Founded ten years ago by Carla Marcus, a previous ski patroller at Sugarloaf USA and a volunteer for the Ski Maine Association, the program is modeled after a popular "Fifth Grade Passport" program in other states, offering free alpine skiing for school children. Funding everything herself including salary, printing, distribution, marketing and mailings, she launched a Maine counterpart with positive feedback.
"I started receiving calls from families, teachers and the medical community saying they loved the passport program," said Marcus. "The teachers told me they wanted to do things in their schools, and doctors were interested because it got the kids exercising. It became obvious that what was needed was a program for children and their families to develop a physically healthy lifestyle. Ten years ago, we realized there was a serious problem with obesity across the country. In Maine, children tend to play on computers and watch television in the winter. We can't sit on the couch in our longest season of the year and expect our kids to be healthy. The mission of the program is to get kids to develop a healthy lifestyle."
The next year, the program included cross country skiing, as well as educational programs in the schools and communities. Today, WinterKids offers seven unique programs, all aimed at introducing kids to winter outdoors. One targets schools and communities to welcome newcomers to winter, another takes the classroom to the mountain, and a third inspires kids through interactive original songs and games. Others engage students with active interdisciplinary outdoor winter lessons, introduce academically stimulating classes and brings winter sports champions to schools. And the passport program grants all Maine fifth, sixth and seventh graders and their families an entire season of free or discounted cross country and downhill skiing, snowshoeing, snowboarding, tubing and ice skating, along with free or discounted lessons and rentals.
Obesity Among Children
Obesity in kids is now epidemic in the United States—and that certainly includes Maine where long winters tend to keep many children inside and inactive. Our society's love of technology and fast food has many kids sitting in front of the television or computer rather than going outside for some fresh air and exercise. In just two decades, the prevalence of overweight children ages 6 to 11 doubled in the U.S.—and tripled for American teenagers. The annual National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that about one-third—about 25 million—are overweight or at risk of becoming overweight. Most pediatricians recommend that children receive a combination of a good diet and regular exercise as a way to combat obesity and maintain a healthy life.
"Obesity among children is a problem here in Maine because the winter is the longest season; it is a time when people tend to hibernate," said Marion Doyle, project director for WinterKids. We want children to know that winter is fun, and there are lots of opportunities to get outside and be active. Technology has provided some really great things, but it isn't helping our children all the way around. Schools are recognizing this."
Getting Off the Couch
As a result, schools have embraced the WinterKids programs as a way to integrate physical activity with learning. The Active Academic workshops, Outdoor Learning Curriculum and SnowSchool programs incorporate lessons on science, math, health, English or other subjects with outside experiential learning. "All studies show that kids learn better through experiential learning. We do all kinds of in-service programs with teachers and training," said Marcus.
The learning takes place at schools or recreational areas, depending on the program. It may start with a lesson inside on cardio-vascular health or nutrition and then is reinforced with an outdoor activity, such as taking one's pulse before and after a workout on snowshoes.
This season, the SnowSchool will be offered at Nordic centers. WinterKids provides the program that adheres to educational standards with Nordic centers supplying instructors to teach the courses. "We provide this program to the ski areas. It is nuts to bolts starting with an introduction on how the ski centers can talk to the schools," said Doyle. "The school takes place at cross country ski centers, and it is designed to bring kids to cross country ski centers who normally wouldn't be there. We want every kid to try cross country skiing, and we want Nordic centers to have an educational program that is a field trip opportunity. This is one more tool to attract another group of kids. It is a way for Nordic centers to show that they are good neighbors and that they care about kids' health."
Doyle says an example of a lesson may be evaluating the difference in the speed of skis, depending on the type of wax used, or if they were waxed at all. Children would be learning about friction and velocity—basic science in a hands-on learning environment.
All for Kids
Today, WinterKids has a staff of four and last year reached 27,000 Maine children and their families, with a curriculum aimed at kindergarten through 12th graders. Over 50 ski and winter recreation areas across the state participate in WinterKids. Five corporate sponsors—Hannaford Supermarkets, L.L. Bean, T.D BankNorth, Weightwatchers of Maine and Healthy Maine Partnerships—as well as numerous private donors back the program. The free ski passes and equipment rentals for children, along with discounted tickets for family members are all donated by the participating ski areas.
"We will do anything to get these kids outdoors. The obesity rates are recognition that we have bred a generation of overweight inactive youngsters," said Tom Gyger, owner of Five Fields Farm Cross Country Ski area in South Bridgton, a nine-year participant in the passport program. "Cross country skiing is hard work—every foot you go down, you have to go up. With 600 vertical feet here, people come for a vascular workout."
It takes courage, willpower and determination to get kids off the couch and onto skis. But WinterKids is making it easier to take that first step. "The kids are the ones who really get excited about skiing," said Gyger. "They are taking greater advantage of the changes in the equipment—such as skate skiing and aggressively skiing. I'll see tracks from kids and don't know how they got the courage to go where they do go!"

Just finished it. Totally bummed about it. Some parts of the game are just fantastic and radical, but then everything else about it sucks so bad that it's easy to forget that.
Imagine how this would have turned out had they put in one more year of development time. It could have been amazing, best Star Wars game ever. Instead we get this mess.
So sad. :(

I work from an integrated theoretical perspective with a strong focus on a Systemic-, a Humanistic- and a Communications/ Interpersonal approach to understanding and facilitating emotional well-being.
I look at human phenomena from a Context-Person-Relational approach:
1. Context gives meaning to behaviour.
2. As individual persons we may have unique subjective experiences/perspectives (needs, feelings and viewpoints).
3. How we relate from our unique individual perspectives to others and our shared environment in turn links with our subjective experiences (Vorster, 2011)
"I relate, therefore I am. Thus, how I impact on you and how you impact on me determines the nature and quality of our being" – Charl Vorster
A Psycho-Diagnostic Tool for Psychotherapy: Interactional Pattern Analysis (IPA)
This article proposes a description of a psycho-diagnostic tool for psychotherapists, the Interactional Pattern Analysis (IPA). Sixteen interpersonal variables are proposed to describe the observable behaviour that constitutes a client's interpersonal style within the context of a particular relationship, such as client-therapist; husband-wife; mother-daughter; friends: context; definition of the relationship; clarity of self-presentation; emotional distance; accurate empathy; congruence and unconditional acceptance; confirmation; expression of needs; linear/circular approach; degree of interpersonal flexibility/rigidity; ability to meta-communicate; adequacy of problem-solving skills; control; potential for eliciting rejection or acceptance; and traumatic incidents. In the context of the psychotherapeutic relationship, trained psychotherapists observe clients' interpersonal styles based on a combination of these interpersonal variables with the intention of proposing a link between clients' patterns of behaviour and their presenting complaints. Based on this connection, appropriate psychotherapeutic interventions can be implemented. " Read more.."

Space Shuttle Columbia is delivered, March 25, 1979
Construction began on Columbia in 1975 at Rockwell International's principal assembly facility outside Los Angeles.
As the second orbiter to be constructed, yet the first able to fly into space, Columbia was roughly 8,000 lb heavier than subsequent orbiters such as Endeavour. Later orbiters were of a slightly different design and had benefited from advances in materials technology.
Columbia, NASA's first fully functional Space Shuttle, was originally scheduled to lift off in late 1979, however the launch date was pushed back after problems with both the SSME components and the thermal protection system.
Columbia would take its first mission, STS-1, on April 12, 1981. In total, Columbia flew 28 flights, spent 300.74 days in space, completed 4,808 orbits, and flew 125,204,911 miles (201,497,772 km) in total, including its final mission.
Columbia was the only shuttle to have been space worthy during both the Shuttle-Mir and International Space Station (ISS) programs and yet to have never visited either Mir or ISS.
Columbia was destroyed on February 1, 2003, upon atmospheric re-entry. An independent panel commissioned by NASA determined that the accident was caused by foam insulation breaking off from the Shuttle, forming debris that damaged the wing. The problem of "debris shedding" was well known but considered "acceptable" by management.
Had Columbia not been destroyed, its career would have begun to wind down after STS-118, a 2007 mission to the ISS that was instead flown by the orbiter Endeavour. Also, Columbia was to service the Hubble Space Telescope two more times in 2004 and in 2005, but no more missions were planned for it again until 2009.
