Product description
Few works in world literature have inspired so vast an audience, in nations with radically different languages and cultures, as the "Ramayana" and "Mahabharata", two Sanskrit verse epics written some 2,000 years ago. In "Ramayana" (written by a poet known to us as Valmiki), William Buck has retold the story of Prince Rama - with all its nobility of spirit, courtly intrigue, heroic renunciation, fierce battles, and triumph of good over evil - in a length and manner that will make the great Indian epics accessible to the contemporary reader.The same is true for the "Mahabharata" - in its original Sanskrit, probably the longest Indian epic ever composed. It is the story of a dynastic struggle, between the Kurus and Pandavas, for land. In his introduction, Sanskritist B. A. van Nooten notes, "Apart from William Buck's rendition [no other English version has] been able to capture the blend of religion and martial spirit that pervades the original epic." Presented accessibly for the general reader without compromising the spirit and lyricism of the originals, William Buck's "Ramayana" and "Mahabharata" capture the essence of the Indian cultural heritage.

Author information
William Buck died in 1970 at the age of 37 after more than 15 years of work on the Ramayana, Mahabharata, and the unfinished Harivamsa. Of the two finished books, he wrote, "My method in writing both Mahabharata and Ramayana was to begin with a literal translation from which to extract the story, and then to tell that story in an interesting way that would preserve the spirit and flavor of the original."
Review quote
"To say the "Ramayana is one of the great epics of India may be a misleading understatement, for it is of far greater importance to India than the Greek epics are to Western thought. The "Ramayana and the "Mahabharata make up the framework of the Hindu religious, cultural, and social imagination. . . . Buck has succeeded better than anyone else in conveying the spirit of the original."--"Choice
Editorial reviews
Buck, who died in 1970, left translations of the Sanskrit epics the Mabharata (published in 1973) and Valmiki's Ramayana. This prose version for a lay rather than a scholarly audience, rearranges and simplifies the structure of the original in the interest of narrative clarity. Shirley Triest contributes some 25 full pen-and-ink illustrations, plus some smaller decorations. (Kirkus Reviews)

"A lot of tourists left, I think, probably a little bit annoyed and I would assume went somewhere else for their next ski vacation where they weren't going to be hassled as much," Vance said. "People couldn't figure out why it was that they had to join a club that didn't have a swimming pool, golf course or a tennis court."
The Beerhive took over an old FedEx store and now has about 100 beers on tap. But it's more unique feature might be a narrow strip of ice lining the top of the bar counter where patrons can place their beer between sips.
"Your whole life you're used to getting that last, nasty warm sip of beer. With this, the last sip is colder than the first," Vance said.
A five-minute walk away from the Beerhive is Squatters, which has been brewing beer for two decades.
The brewpub always has 12 of its own beers on tap and makes about 20 seasonal varieties.
Brewmaster Jennifer Talley and her assistant Jason Stock make fun beers based on their taste and what they are in the mood to drink. On a recent weekday they bottled 2,240 bottles of their new 529 beer, aged 529 days in oak barrels in the basement.
"We're here to prove the stigma wrong. We've been here 20 years making amazing beers," Talley said. "People don't even know that you can have a drink in Utah. Not only can you have a drink, you can have amazing beers, amazing wines."
Thanks to the new law Talley can now make beers with a high percentage of alcohol, although they still can't serve those on tap -- only in bottles.
"It just opened up our entire portfolio of beers to be able to make anything we want, any style we want," she said.
Squatters and other brewpubs can now also sell six-packs of beer directly to consumers to take home. Previously, the brewery had to sell the beer to the state and then buy it back at a markup. Squatters said sales have quadrupled because of that change.
For now, Squatters -- like most other Utah breweries -- sells the vast majority of its beer in-state. The pub is just too small to keep up with bottling large quantities of beer for distribution. But Squatters does hope to get its beer on the shelves of liquor stores elsewhere in a few years.
"We want to make sure our locals are taken care of first," Talley said, "then we will take care of everybody else."

The tools and guidance documents on this website are provided to assist the caBIG® community in facilitating data sharing activities. They are not legal advice, nor does their distribution or use create an attorney-client relationship. Users should consult with their own legal advisers to assure compliance with all applicable federal and state laws and institutional policies.
Tool Overview
Data Sharing and Security Framework Diagram
The DSSF is an analytical tool designed to contribute to an understanding of the nature of any mandatory legal restrictions on data sharing and agreements, if any, necessary to facilitate proposed exchanges. The tool graphically depicts the four separate analyses which are required to assess the sensitivity of a given data set. It relies on color-coding to indicate how easy or difficult data sharing might be given the content of a specific data set. Green is associated with low sensitivity. Yellow is associated with moderate sensitivity. Orange is associated with high sensitivity. The colors should be thought of as a spectrum and not perfectly defined categories. The analyses are conducted locally to assure institutional compliance with state law and institutional policy. The highest level of sensitivity identified during the four analyses dictates the type of restrictions that need to be in place for the data to be shared. This is outlined in the bottom section of the tool.
The intended audience for the Data Sharing and Security Framework is researchers and their study teams as well as the institutional subject matter experts with which they interact in the ares of privacy & confidentiality, research policies & ethics, proprietary issues, and sponsor requirements. The subject matter experts may include privacy officers, compliance officers, chief information officers, legal counsel, human research protection program directors, IRB staff, IRB chairs, technology transfer office, research associate deans, and sponsored program offices.
What's New
A web-based, interactive version of the DSSF and the associated decision support tools has been conceptualized. If you would like to contribute any ideas to the ongoing development of this, please see our Discussion Forums. A specific forum has been established for discussing the future development and evolution of the DSSF.

Doody's Review ServiceReviewer: Cathy Biskup, BS, RT (R)(CT)(United Regional Medical Services, Inc.)
Description: The new publication of this question and answer book is an excellent study and review guide for the radiologic technologist preparing for the advanced CT certificate examination. The book contains the necessary topics such as patient care, radiation protection, physics, image quality, and anatomy that are pertinent to the CT technologist.
Purpose: The purpose is to allow readers to evaluate their current level of CT understanding, to increase readers' knowledge by including brief explanations with the answers, and to refamiliarize readers with the process of taking multiple choice exams. This book is very much needed, especially since the introduction of the CT certificate exam.
Audience: Any CT technologist challenging his or her own knowledge of CT or preparing for the CT exam would find this book a necessary and useful source of information.
Features: The questions are challenging, and the answers with explanations provide an excellent deductive reasoning tool. The CT images are of good quality, with the anatomy well-defined. The annotations (numbers, lines, arrows) are well-placed within the illustrations. The references listed in the back of the book are separated by specific category, providing the reader additional sources for further study.
Assessment: The book offers its readers an overall review of questions and answers that are pertinent to the CT technologist for the CT certificate exam. I wish this book had been available when I was studying for the advanced CT certificate exam. This book would be a valuable resource for any radiology (CT) department library.

I am convinced and confident that our talented code ninja Chris Jean has (as always) used the most efficient techniques to code the functionality. It is inevitable though, that there is a "price to pay" for the flexibility Builder offers. It's creating a versatile and flexible CMS using WordPress. I am still convinced that it will beat "traditional" CMS such as Drupal or Joomla, and most of all, it can be used by novice and expert users to create the site they want. (and there's always the "default" theme in WordPress of course )
We'll see how (if at all) Google will implement new rules for their ranking, what the weight will be, so far, from what I gather, slower loading sites will not be penalised, but faster loading sites will be rewarded. So us poor people that can't afford their own top notch server and datacenter, and have to use shared hosting for $4,95 a month will just have to accept this fact.
Just my 2 cents,Ronald

You can build front pages, interior pages, post pages... pretty much anything.

Then i got stressed out about what themes to go for. As I have basic dreamweaver skills, i was looking everywhere

So I bought it.
Looking forward to using.

New multi-tiered lottery game hits NJ
The New Jersey Lottery has a new game, and it promises to be a doozy.
The New Jersey Lottery has a new game, and it promises to be a doozy.
It may be Friday the 13th, but someone could get very lucky tonight if the lottery gods are feeling generous and they match tonight's Mega Millions numbers.
Last week in Ocean County, a Shell Gas Station in Toms River was robbed of several cartons of cigarettes and thousands of lottery tickets.
A Minnesota project engineer has come forward as 1 of 3 winners of $448 million Powerball jackpot while the two New Jersey winners remain a mystery.
Those people who live down the street? They just won $30 Million!
That would be me. Me, Joe Kelly. Lottery Winner.
The Mega Millions lottery jackpot is a record-breaking $540,000,000. If you win, here's how it would break down.
So, what would you do with $363 million?

Stratford is a town in Garvin County, Oklahoma, United States. Prior to Oklahoma statehood in 1907, the town existed under different names and was in the Chickasaw Nation in a geographic region known as Indian Territory. Peach orchards abound in and around the town. The population was 1,525 at the 2010 census.
Stratford was originally the town of McGee, which was established in 1891.[3] At the time, it was part of the Chickasaw Nation in an unorganized geographic region of the United States known as Indian Territory[4] In 1906 the Oklahoma Central Railroad built the railroad two miles south of McGee.[3] The town placed its buildings on wagons and wheeled them down to the train tracks. The new town was first named Walling, but by October 1906 the name was changed to Stratford.[3] Stratford is known as the Peach Capital of the World and holds its Peach Festival, annual rodeo, and car show the third Saturday each July. The festival has been held since 1976, while the rodeo dates back to 1936.[3]
Stratford is approximately halfway between Pauls Valley, Oklahoma and Ada, Oklahoma along State Highway 19, where it intersects U.S. Highway 177.[3] Its geographic coordinates are 34°47′46″N 96°57′37″W / 34.79611°N 96.96028°W (34.796077, -96.960342).[5]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 1.0 square mile (2.6 km2), all of it land.
Stratford lies in a part of Oklahoma known for hills of 250 to 400 feet (120 m), oak forests and flat, fertile plains.[6] There are more than 400 acres of peach orchards in and around the town.[3]
Stratford has frequent variations in weather daily and seasonally, except during the consistently hot summer months. Consistent winds during the summer help temper the hotter weather. Consistent northerly winds during the winter can intensify cold periods.
As of the census[1] of 2010, there were 1,525 people, 609 households, and 408 families residing in the town. There were 728 housing units. The racial makeup of the town was 78.3% White, 0.5% African American, 15.5% Native American, 0.9% from other races, and 4.3% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 2.7% of the population.
There were 609 households out of which 32.8% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 43.0% were married couples living together, 16.7% had a female householder with no husband present, and 33.0% were non-families. 29.1% of all households were made up of individuals and 13.1% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.50 and the average family size was 3.09.
In the town the population was spread out with 24.7% under the age of 15, 12.9% from 15 to 24, 25.8% from 25 to 44, 21.4% from 45 to 64, and 15.3% who were 65 years of age or older.

34 year old man | Chicago, IL, USA | Seeking women 24-35 within 50 miles of Forest Park, IL
work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like nobody's watching!"- Tina Fey
I'm a true Chicagoan. I love the Blackhawks/ Bears, and going to festivals. I guess it helps that I remind people of Hossa from the Blackhawks. Most of my weekends are spent with my friends at bars and clubs, or catching up on sleep and enjoying tv marathons. I like doing outdoors activities (camping, fishing, hiking), and playing football. I also like to stay relatively fit (when grad school isn't crazy), and get my exercise at the gym or dancing. I spend a lot of time listening to music and watching movies. I'm always excited to try something new and go to new places. I've been fortunate to do a lot of traveling in my grad program (on their dime which is awesome). I've been to France, Netherlands, Sweden, and Hawaii. All amazing. I do work a lot (I'm in grad school) but I always try to make time to enjoy life. I'm in Forest Park now, but moving to Chicago soon to start my post-doctorate at UIC. Most importantly, it's true what they say about getting your life together and being comfortable with yourself before you can let someone else in. This is a valuable lesson I've learned, and have been working towards. I'm graduating next month. Woop Woop! I'm getting my PhD in the biomedical sciences (cancer and stem cell research). My job may sound boring, but it's pretty awesome. I find cures for diseases! I discovered a potential treatment for vitiligo/melanoma, and have received several publications and press on it. Now I'm going to try my hand on stem cells...I don't let my work rule my life though, so to keep myself sane, I've surrounded myself with great friends that love to go out and have fun. I've always had a desire to work in a University, but this type of career doesn't leave a lot of time for anything else. I am instead thinking of going into the private sector so I can have more time to live life socially. Plus it pays better :) I've been so focused the past few years on my school and career, but now I'm ready to start living my life, and hopefully find someone that can appreciate my goofy, witty humor, and have an open/honest relationship with. I consider myself good at making people laugh, carrying a conversation, and listening. As for what I'm looking for...someone that likes dancing, watching TV/movies, goofing around. Someone that likes to feel special, but be prepared for banter and sarcastic jokes (I'm probably not for reserved type.) I consider myself old fashioned, and prefer to be the only guy in the picture, at least once things get a bit more serious.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Video games , Watching sports
Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Dancing, Football, Hockey, Martial arts, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Cats
Soundbar Tavern Vertigo lounge Dannys Europe Hawaii
Loyola University Chicago, Chicago, IL
For movies, I generally agree with rotten tomatoes and AFI. Also most things Spielberg, kubric, and cameron For music, industrial (nine inch nails) also lots of 80s and 90s. Alternative, rock, and hip hop for dancing TV shows, Breaking Bad!
I'm a movie buff. I love music and going to concerts. My dad has a boat, so we do a lot of lake activities including fishing. I'm part Russian, so can handle my drink pretty well. I consider myself a goofy drunk, but don't drink that often. Dancing!
I usually stick with the top 100 books list for fiction. The last couple of books I've read are snow crash, The Girl with a dragon Tattoo series (who hasn't), and am currently reading the new Dan Brown book Inferno. I'm also a big Stephen King fan.

A winter like no other
Posted 02/20 · 03:13 AM · LM EditorialThe impact of this once in a lifetime winter simply cannot be understated when viewing how it has impacted myriad facets of daily life and freight transportation operations, too, of course. What Old Man Winter has wrought early in the year looking at metrics like sluggish retail sales and declining truck tonnage is obvious to say the least. And while it will not last forever, its impact remains intact for now anyway.

Stop playing Russian roulette with trucks

If your company uses even one unsafe carrier, and something bad happens, your company will pay a price and (in the words of Administrator Ferro) be "held accountable."

nice story and great photograph bill
i think there are different tools for different situations ..
and there are situations regarding display and presentation as well.
a lot of photographs made on smaller format cameras look great when not enlarged
extremely large ( and some look great enlarged to 16x20, but viewing distance is "back a few feet" )
and a lot of photographs made with a 4x5 or larger camera .. well they are technically nice to look at
but don't have the magic moment effect that can be had with a smaller camera.
a lot of photography that 99% of what people do is to capture a memory they don't want to forget ..
a place, the way the sun hit the hills behind their house, a tornado, friends, family, workmates &c ( sorry to sound cheezy but "kodak moments" )
and to me at least, any level of image quality is acceptable. ...
in a photo album small is nice, and if the same 110 image is enlarged to 20x24 ... it probably has a beautiful impressionistic feel to it

It doesn't matter wut Americans here think of Wlad. For one, most r nationalist, many of whom r also racist against him. Over the next three years, and by the time he retires, his accomplishments WILL STAND ALONE in the annuls of Heavyweight boxing history………Posted April 18, 2014 7:27 am
"Solid GOLD SHOW"
For the most part, Bustajay. The beginning of the show was a bit of a cluster-f**k.
Posted April 16, 2014 1:16 pm
Yeah but I guess when doing a live show it puts the pressure on bro. All in all JK and Gogue held it down for Joe.Posted April 16, 2014 9:10 pm
I am really looking forward to the Klitschko-Pulev fight, but the fact that no one has ever come close to outpoint Wladimir, and that Pulevs defense isnt all that brilliant makes it hard to imagen an upset.Posted April 16, 2014 6:12 pm
doc its all about sour grapes.
That's why they use a 10 year old photo for this story.Posted April 16, 2014 5:59 pm
The heavyweight division is only a joke for those narrow minded Americans who hate European fighters who kick ass on Americans.Posted April 16, 2014 5:58 pm
Pulev will hit wlad and will hit wlad good. It will be a good fight. Pulev is no small guy. His size is deceiving. Pulev has tried to put big guys in front of him. He has been training to fight Wlad. If Wlad loses, there will be no brother, Vitali, revenge. Wlad will have to fix it himself or retire. If Wald does not want to defend the IBF belt, put it up for grabs.Posted April 16, 2014 2:25 pm

why do people knock wlad.its not he"s fault the heavyweight era today is a joke.Posted April 16, 2014 11:44 am
@ Mo Box and babler – The fact that Wlad is non-American has nothing to do with why people dis-like him. People dis-like him because he fights like he is afraid of his own shadow, and has always failed when put under pressure. His brother Vital is also non-American, but gets much more credit because of his heart (which was also questioned after the Byrd fight, but redeemed following the Lewis fight). In fact the young Wlad (who blasted old Mercer, Monte Barret, Botha, Axel Schultz, etc, etc.) was a much more pleasing fighter to watch.Posted April 16, 2014 11:22 am
You will never hear about Ali's boring rope dope or his loss to Leon Spinks or getting floored by Cooper etc. Its always about his best moments. America just wont credit Wladimar even though hes smart,always in top shape, and has been a model champ. IF HE KNOCKS them sill quickly like Austin hes criticized, if he beats on them for 12 rounds like the giant Wach hes criticized, if he systematically breaks them down and then ko's them hes criticized. What America wants is for him to lose his title.Posted April 16, 2014 7:49 am
huckstеr аnd уou still tink thаt Kubrаt Pulеv will bеаt Wlаd..?Posted April 16, 2014 3:24 am
exhaustion? Ali did the rope a dope. Brewster did come pound a coconut. wlad looks like he got caught by leaving himself open. pacman got caught.Posted April 16, 2014 2:29 am
Brewster got the crap beat out of him by Siarhei Liakhovich and lost the WBO Belt in the beating. Nuff said.Posted April 15, 2014 11:54 pm

Great cover photoPosted April 15, 2014 8:55 pm
that fight was weird especially with everything that surrounded TARK pointed it out well. also don king was affiliated with the bout.
brewster prides himself on taking more punishment than wlad could dish but im not convinced thats all their was to it.
wlad dominated, had the aberation, then picked up where he left off and continued domination in the second fight. not only was he the first to drop brewster he did it twice. REAL KNOCKDOWNS.
the fight had a lot of unique things happen. the ref tripped wlad and ruled it a knock down. i never seen that beforePosted April 15, 2014 7:57 pm
mike s
I haven't seen Klitschko get hit like that in a long long timePosted April 15, 2014 5:51 pm
WladimirPosted April 15, 2014 5:46 pm
Wladimir won the first 4 rounds of the first Brewster fight, and floored Brewster, before unaccountably losing strength and power.. Wladimir was landing 400% more punches than Brewster in the first 3 rounds. He started slowing down unaccountably in the 4th and could barely stand up in the 5th.
Gamblers came in just before the fight and bet massively on Brewster.. They moved the odds dramatically and unprecendently — something Jim Lampley pointed out in the telecast because such heavy betting was so unusual … Millions of dollars were won on Brewster that night and he was a HUGE underdog.
Something else unusual happened… Wladimir's blood work and samples taken at the hospital disappeared completely. We'll find out on Judgment Day what happened.
Wladimir easily won the rematch — with Brewster quitting in his corner after putting up a lame effort. The 1st Brewster fight was Wladimir's last loss, and it was 10 years ago … kind of funny that they would pick that particular picture to display for this story.Posted April 15, 2014 5:45 pm
Let's get the FACTS straight Vladimir Klitschko pounded the living daylights out of Lamon for the first FOUR rounds. He literally has not lost a round clearly in NINE years and would have given any heavyweight in HISTORY a hard out. Not saying he WINS them all but his size skill power and reach would have been a lot for a lot of the past heavy weightsPosted April 15, 2014 5:44 pm
Thanks for not calling the mutt an EXPERT TRAINER again. I know of at least 25 fighters that would argue the point. Really stop with him, you bring your whole program down, to dirt level. He has no shame or he would hide his head in the sand. Tell everyone John of the real mutt you are……. You hurt a lot of fighters and might have been fighters if they didn`t get involved with your pompous, selfish, half step-in ways.Posted April 15, 2014 5:24 pm
Wlad pounded on Brewster in that first fight and got beat because of exhaustion from hitting that coconut head. He had won every round easily. Steward taught him how to not punch himself out and protect himself.Posted April 15, 2014 5:16 pm
Please someone shoot me, not Scully AGAIN…… you must get paid to talk to him, ya that's got to be it. I understand now and forgive you, everyone is entitled to make a living even if it is talking to and promoting a mutt in every sense of the word. John knows its true as does the people that really know him. This is one episode not worth hearing, I`ll wait till you get back JH.Posted April 15, 2014 5:00 pm
fry up
f~k of LOLPosted April 15, 2014 4:17 pm
Master Ken
Um.. Wlad never lost to Peter lol… And brewster won, but Brewster didn't "brutally" beat him, he out punched himself and was done even before Brewster hit him..Posted April 15, 2014 3:57 pm
wlad looked like from another planet in that pic?Posted April 15, 2014 3:31 pm
Coz Toefairy is all talk and about a two and half classes lower than the Relentless Brewster when it comes to the art of SuperHW boxing :PPosted April 15, 2014 2:56 pm
dont remember toe haye hitting wladi like that.Posted April 15, 2014 2:31 pm
Lamon Brewster, the last American Heavyweight Champion! Was a hell of a mean relentless dude at his peak! Rookie Wlad that was all-agression little-defence obviously learned a lot from this brutal beating, I think defeat to Brewster and Peter's first fight defined the Wlad of today – look at their remach and look at Wlad now, he's like from another planet in comparison.Posted April 15, 2014 2:30 pm

Something looks a little wrong with Wlad's face in that photo…maybe he was poisoned?!?!? lolPosted April 15, 2014 1:22 pm

TX 13999-01 SBA Offers Disaster Assistance to Residents and Businesses Affected by the Hutchinson County Wildfires
SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Low-interest federal disaster loans are available to Texas residents and business owners affected by the wildfires that began in Hutchinson County on May 11, 2014, U. S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator Maria Contreras-Sweet announced today. SBA acted under its own authority to declare a disaster in response to a request SBA received from Gov. Rick Perry on May 19.
The disaster declaration makes SBA assistance available in the primary Texas county of Hutchinson and the neighboring counties of Carson, Hansford, Moore, Ochiltree, Roberts and Sherman.
"The U. S. Small Business Administration is strongly committed to providing Texas with the most effective and customer-focused response possible, and we will be there to provide access to federal disaster loans to help finance recovery for residents and businesses affected by the disaster," said Contreras-Sweet. "Getting our businesses and communities up and running after a disaster is our highest priority at SBA."
"Low-interest federal disaster loans are available to homeowners, renters, businesses of all sizes and private, nonprofit organizations whose property was damaged or destroyed by this disaster," said SBA's Lubbock District Director Calvin Davis. "Beginning Wednesday, May 28, 2014, SBA representatives will be on hand at the following Disaster Loan Outreach Center to answer questions about SBA's disaster loan program, explain the application process and help each individual complete their application," Davis continued. The center will be open on the days and times indicated. No appointment is necessary.
Disaster Loan Outreach Center

Disaster loans up to $200,000 are available to homeowners to repair or replace damaged or destroyed real estate. Homeowners and renters are eligible for up to $40,000 to repair or replace damaged or destroyed personal property.
Businesses of any size and private, nonprofit organizations may borrow up to $2 million to repair or replace damaged or destroyed real estate, machinery and equipment, inventory, and other business assets. SBA can also lend additional funds to homeowners and businesses to help with the cost of making improvements that protect, prevent or minimize the same type of disaster damage from occurring in the future.
For small businesses, small agricultural cooperatives, small businesses engaged in aquaculture, and most private, nonprofit organizations of any size, SBA offers Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDLs) to help meet working capital needs caused by the disaster. EIDL assistance is available regardless of whether the business suffered any property damage.
Interest rates can be as low as 2.188 percent for homeowners and renters, 2.625 percent for private, nonprofit organizations and 4 percent for businesses, with terms up to 30 years. Loan amounts and terms are set by SBA and are based on each applicant's financial condition.

Our guests reviewsIBEROSTAR Playa Mita
Nancy says: 9 months
Stayed at Iberostar north of Puerto Vallarta
"The restaurant foods and service were great. Only complaint was we were not told until it was too late that the buffet would be closed Wednesday night of our stay and we had to order room service which was NOT up to Iberostar standards. The Pacific Express restaurant was an ultimate gourmet experience. We will be back at another Iberostar property soon! "Rating: 8,0

I would go to this resort again... With Punta Mita and Sayulita on the door step, it's an awesome stay.
"Location was amazing and the resort was beautiful. Food was really good. An improvement could be made with the entertainment/sports staff though. In particular; the yoga lessons were not professional. I would expect a more skilled team to deliver yoga lessons from a 5 star resort. The night entertainment was awesome. They were great at engaging with the crowd a delivering a solid performance every night."Rating: 9,0

It was just an OK stay I'm afraid.
"The resort was nice and the food very good. Rooms were fine, however the showers need some work. The shower was very slippery and I was worried about falling. Each time anyone took a shower the whole bathroom floor got wet. To appeal to the USA customer, your employees do need to be able to speak and understand English a lot better than they did, especially in the restaurants and bars however having said that, all staff at the resort who I came into contact with were very friendly and tried very hard. They seemed a bit overwhelmed at times though. "Rating: 7,0

We are grateful to experience this hotel. Thank you.
"We booked a last minute vacation and decided on Iberostar in PV because 1) it was brand new resort and 2) the price! We have never stayed at an Iberostar, however, I have heard wonderful things from people who had stayed at this chain of hotel elsewhere. Check in was great, we arrived late and because of our terrible flight and delay in landing the reception upgraded our room no charge. Our room was beautiful - overlooked the ocean and part of the resort. We tried all the a la carte restaurants and found them excellent! Having recently been diagnosed with celiac disease, I did find it a little difficult to navigate through the menu and choices as all seem to contain gluten aside from salad. I would suggest adding more gluten free items to your selections in the future. The buffet was delicious too, although I was surprised that there was not as abundant an amount of food as we have experienced in other resorts. I do understand though that there were only 200 guests at the resort so it is understandable that the selection was more limited than at full capacity. The service in all restaurants was excellent. Loved the Star entertainment team (Brian was amazing) and loved Moses as the instructor for the aqua gym. The entertainment team with their activities around the pool & dance lessons etc was thoroughly enjoyable, we participated in most. Diego was my partner for salsa lessons, I was a pro in 30 minutes :) I would have to say Brian Anderson? (not sure of the last name) stood out as a real leader. We loved the nightly entertainment, the big show in the theatre, and also the band in the lounge. Because we were there during the low season the pool was quiet, Ana, our server around the pool was excellent. Very attentive and prompt with our drinks. LOVED the taco's poolside - delicious! I believe the chef was Fernando.... Because our last day ended up being the beginning of a long weekend in Mexico, Independence Day, the resort went from 200 people to 1,000 in one morning. This was overwhelming for us as we had just had 6 glorious peaceful days then BAM....we felt like we were in the middle of a crowded daycare....families everywhere which I have no problem with but so many screaming kids around the pool. Ice cream cones dropped and melted on the walkways....food and drinks spilled everywhere, kids butting in front of us while we were getting our food at the buffet for lunch - definitely NOT how we wanted to spend our last day. Also the swim up bar was filled with kids sitting on the stools, adults only was not enforced at all- very disappointing. I would highly recommend the lower half of the pool or a section of the pool to be an adult only kid-free zone! Also, I think the beach needs to be brought up to Iberostar level of excellence. We entered the beach by the La Duna bar and grill. I did not like the walkway to enter the beach, the boards were uneven and I tripped twice, then you step down and it was unattractive.....there were big mounds of rock/dirt as a retainer wall seperating the resort rooms and the beach, also the chairs were haphazardly set up with umbrellas and the sand was dirty, blackish brown. The setup at the beach was equivalent to a 2-3 star hotel. We were not impressed. Most holidays we spend the majority of our time on the loungers at the beach but we did not do this once because of the dirty sand and unsafe walkway to the beach. Also, because of the time of year we had a few stormy rainy nights, which was not a problem at all. What was a problem was the slippery tile when it was wet. The staff worked tirelessly to remove as much water as possible but it was still so slippery. I would be shocked to learn that no one has slipped and seriously hurt themselves on that wet tile.

World traveller
"I went on a family vacation (9 people) to the Iberostar. The food was okay, not great, but there was enough to keep everyone happy. The beach is really nice and the pool is clean. Great for a family resort but I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking to party as it is definitely more catered to families. The theatre was a great experience as they had a different show every night, mostly for the kids. The alcohol was great as they had the option of premium liquor for the people with the all-inclusive package. The cigar bar had the best choices for higher end liquor (scotch, cognac, etc.) The biggest disappointment was the location of the rooms. The rooms we paid for were "Ocean View rooms" and we definitely did not get an ocean view room. According to the front desk, ocean view are the rooms that are not ground floor, even though they face the interior of the resort or the golf course. I tried to talk to the front desk to get an ocean view room and they said those rooms are only the suites. Nothing was done to rectify the situation and I just ended up spending a lot of time trying to talk to the staff about it, who didn't seem to care. Overall, it was a decent vacation but I don't think I would commit to going back again."Rating: 5,0
K&T says: 10 months
Would definately return!!
"What an excellent resort!!! We had the pleasure of staying for a week starting Aug 16. We were greeted at the lobby by Gerardo, (one of the best bellboys there!) and Isis helped us check in. Very friendly from the start. Great staff all around. Trinidad in housekeeping, Felipe at the disco and Alonso at La Bahia breakfast/lunch. Resort is very clean and they are continually working to improve the grounds. Great food at the buffet and al a cartes. Great resort and am already planning my return trip!!"Rating: 10,0

This song is vibrant and lively and it makes you want to get your moves and grooves right and on that dance floor. It is just the kind of entertainment you need. The lyrics is what I like the most about the song. Lyrics like this song is suitable for all ages and fun. I love the hook line of the song it brings that feeling of a 'Lover's Rock' into a dancehall song. The beat is a new rhythm that gives the song the kind of party feeling you would want at parties and celebrations.
I conclude that this song is a well written and arrange and I give the author, producer and singer credit for a work well done. Now, I leave all my interested readers and bloggers to check this song out and give it a listening ear, and your reviews.

This Palmer stands for elegance and sophistication: the embodiment of natural gifts, both athletic and personal.
We were greatly impressed with the quality, sophistication, and wide range of topics we received from every country in South Asia.
Skiing may claim to be the height of sophistication—the stuff of Chamonix and Gstaad.
early 15c., "use of sophistry; fallacious argument intended to mislead; adulteration; an adulterated or adulterating substance," from Medieval Latin sophisticationem (nominative sophisticatio), noun of action from past participle stem of sophisticare "adulterate, cheat quibble," from Latin sophisticus "of sophists," from Greek sophistikos "of or pertaining to a sophist," from sophistes "a wise man, master, teacher" (see sophist). Meaning "wordly wisdom, refinement, discrimination" is attested from 1850.

Really, how good is
the SEC?
No one can deny it's the best conference going at the moment. No one can
deny that the overall speed and talent level is tremendous. The weekly
drama is unparalleled, thanks to so many good match-ups, and the overall
competition is so tough that it's just about impossible to get through
unscathed. So after the way Florida blew up Ohio State to win the
national title, will the conference start to get every benefit of the
doubt? It should.
Of all the national champions since Florida State won in 1993 (remember
that only the BCS champions count in our new world…sorry USC of 2003),
only three finished with a loss. Take a wild stab at which league
produced those three; yes, the SEC (1995 Florida, 2003 LSU, and 2006
Florida). You can understand why Auburn fans are still angry after their
unbeaten team got left out in the cold in 2004. The SEC has proven time
and again that when given the chance, it shines through on the highest
But really, how good is the SEC?
To feed the ego a little more, the league has gone 7-1 in the BCS since
2001, with two national titles, and the lone blemish was Georgia's 38-35
upset loss to West Virginia in the 2006 Sugar Bowl. In that same time
span, the Big Ten went 4-6 (with Ohio State winning three of those), the
Big 12 went 3-6, and the ACC was 0-6.
Remember, it took USC losing to UCLA and a sizable portion of the voters
to go against Michigan just to get Florida in the championship game.
Maybe it's time to start weighing the strength of schedule more when it
comes to the SEC, and to realize that a one-loss team here could be the
equivalent of an unbeaten team from another conference. That might
especially be the case this season.
Things have gotten even tougher, with normal bottom-feeders Kentucky and
Vanderbilt now good enough to go to a bowl. Ole Miss and Mississippi
State are even better than in 2006, when they were more than just
competitive by the end the season. And then, of course, there are all
the big-name programs.
Georgia is getting better with QB Matthew Stafford improving, South
Carolina will be better than it's been in several years, Arkansas has
the best running back tandem in the nation, Auburn will be typical
Auburn with a fast, nasty defense, Tennessee will be strong again (as
long as the receiving corps comes through), and LSU and Florida will
open the season ranked among the top five teams in the nation.
How good is the SEC? It's still the best, and it's only getting better.
Team That'll Surprise
Vanderbilt. This is the year. This is the year Vanderbilt finally
breaks the drought and goes to its first bowl game since the 1982 Hall
of Fame Classic (which it lost to Air Force). While their SEC record
won't be anything to swoon over, the Commodores will go 4-0 in
non-conference play (Richmond, Eastern Michigan, Miami University and
Wake Forest) and will come up with just enough league wins to get it
Team That'll Disappoint
Florida. Even though they'll be ranked in just about everyone's top five
to start the season, the Gators have to rebuild almost the entire
defense while hoping for the hyperkinetic Tim Tebow to lead the offense
as effectively as Chris Leak did (at least when it counted). Even with
as much raw talent as anyone in America, this team isn't going to win
all those close games two years in a row.
Offensive Player of the Year
RB Darren McFadden, Jr. Arkansas. The coaching staff realizes who the
franchise is. In the Hogs' "Wildcat" package, McFadden will see more
time at quarterback, just to get the ball in his hands as much as
possible. He'd be a threat to tear off a 68-yard touchdown as a
Defensive Player of the Year
DT Glenn Dorsey, Sr. LSU. Does anyone crank out top defensive tackles
like LSU? One after another…the place is a factory for All-Americans,
and Dorsey has continued the trend, coming off a phenomenal season as
the team's anchor. Eschewing the NFL for a year, he'll be the key piece
to a possible national title puzzle.
5 Big-Time Players Who Deserve a Bigger Spotlight ...
1. LB Jasper Brinkley, Sr. South Carolina
2. DL Titus Brown, Sr. Mississippi State
3. OL Antoine Caldwell, Jr. Alabama
4. OL Michael Oher, Jr. Ole Miss
5. LB Wesley Woodyard, Sr. Kentucky
Coach on the Hot Seat
Sylvester Croom,
Mississippi State – Croom hasn't exactly turned things around, going
9-25 in three seasons. His Bulldogs won't win the SEC this season, but
they'd better flirt with a winning season or the program might have to
rebuild yet again.
5 Non-Conference Games the SEC had better take very, very seriously
1. South Florida at Auburn, Sept. 8
2. South Carolina at North Carolina, Oct. 13
3. Southern Miss at Tennessee, Sept. 8
4. Houston at Alabama, Oct. 6
5. Miami University at Vanderbilt, Oct. 27
5 Best Pro Prospects
1. RB Darren McFadden, Jr. Arkansas
2. DT Glenn Dorsey, Sr. LSU
3. QB Andre Woodson, Sr. Kentucky
4. DE Derrick Harvey, Jr. Florida
5. WR Earl Bennett, Jr. Vanderbilt
5 Biggest Shoes to Fill
1. Matt Flynn for JaMarcus Russell, QB LSU
2. Jonathan Cornell for Patrick Willis, LB Ole Miss
3. Lucas Taylor for Robert Meachem, WR Tennessee
4. Tim Tebow for Chris Leak, QB Florida
5. Kyle Jackson for Reggie Nelson, S Florida

How to Make Strawberry Coconut Cream Soda
Sip on a sparkling summer drink that's bursting with fresh strawberries and the sweetness of cream soda. It's the tastiest way to cool down on a hot day.
Today, we're whipping up refreshing and easy strawberry coconut cream sodas. To begin, in a medium bowl, combine 3 cups strawberries and 2/3 cup sugar. Then, use a pastry cutter to mash the strawberries. No need to use any appliances here. You just want to get them coarsely mashed so they start to release some of their juices. Now, it's time to assemble our sodas. To one of the glasses, add 1/3 cup of the mashed strawberries, then fill with ice. Add 2 tablespoons of refrigerated coconut milk to the glass and top with about 1/2 cup of club soda. Give the drinks a stir before serving, and then kick back, relax, and enjoy this cool treat.

Rahim says that getting to those billions of tax dollars that government set aside for rebuilding was nearly impossible, so he gets money from individual donors, some of them tourists and passers-by.
He has a sign urging people to get out of their cars and lend a hand. They did, as did a number of celebrities.
"Brad Pitt has done more for this community than anyone," Rahim said.
Brad Pitt is doing more than the government of the United States?
"I would say 10 times more than the government," Rahim said.
Pitt founded non-profit group called Make it Right, which aims to build new, energy-efficient homes in the Ninth Ward. Some people doubted that Pitt would follow through, but with few delays, homes started going up. The first homes were finished this summer.
If Brad Pitt and Harry Connick, Jr. can work to build dozens of new homes, why does it take government so long to follow through on its plans? The New Orleans mayor said he has made it easier for people to rebuild their homes, making permits available online at kiosks throughout the city.
"We issued thousands and thousands of permits right after Katrina. So, we tried to get out of the way, and I think it paid off for us," Nagin said. "We have everything online, so you can go online, you can visit a kiosk."
"20/20" visited New Orleans' city hall to try the kiosks that are supposed to give information on permits and rebuilding. The first one didn't work. None of them did.
But there was a clerk, and she was eager to help.
"If you're doing new construction, you're going to need two sets of architectural plans with a live seal from a Louisiana registered architect or engineer," the clerk said.
"You'd also need a plot plan to make sure it meets the zoning requirements," she said, adding, "a construction benchmark which is a FEMA requirement, so that we know that the structure is built at the right height."
Then she went on to talk about the requirement form that FEMA has that lists the fee schedule and explains the permit and plan review fees.
It took more than 10 minutes for her just to explain the permits. Then came information about the forms needed to dispute the damage assessment.
Of the 314 public projects Mayor Nagin promoted in his "One New Orleans " rebuilding campaign, announced in January 2006, only six are complete.
Nagin blames other levels of government, including the Federal Emergency Management Administration, or FEMA, which he says only made substantial amounts of rebuilding money available to the city in February, 2008.
FEMA disputed that, saying the money had been available to the city for longer. Regional director Jim Stark said, "Mayor Nagin has had money to start his projects for at least two years."
This kind of government paralysis and finger pointing happens everywhere. Even the city that never sleeps hasn't been able to rebuild anything at Ground Zero after seven years. The lack of progress gave Nagin a good answer when a New York-based reporter gave him a hard time nearly a year after Katrina hit.
"You guys in New York City can't get a hole in the ground fixed," he quipped back in August 2006.
Seven years after 9/11, The World Trade Center site is still a hole in the ground and reconstruction is tied up in New York City politics. But right next door is 7 World Trade Center, a building also destroyed in the attacks, yet rebuilt quickly by a private company, Silverstein Properties.

The Journal Sentinel's team of Packers beat writers provide the latest news, notes and analysis
Another drop leads to FG
Green Bay - A 39-yard field goal by Mason Crosby put the Packers up 10-0 with 6:30 remaining in the first half.
The Packers had a 13-play, 69-yard drive that could have been extended had Donald Driver been able to catch a high pass from Brett Favre on 3rd-and-11. Yes, it was high but it's a pass Driver usually comes up with.
The big play on the drive was a 25-yard pass from Favre to Ruvell Martin on 3rd-and-8 from the Minnesota 45.
The Packers are dominating all the stats so far, including a time of possession advantage of 17:09-6:21. The Vikings have 42 total yards to Green Bay's 183. And 2 passing yards to Favre's 91.
