ENRON'S MANY STRANDS: CORPORATE CULTURE; At Enron, Lavish Excess Often Came Before Success
Published: February 26, 2002
(Page 2 of 2)
The bill for all this was footed by Enron Capital and Trade, the natural gas and electricity trading business (later called Enron North America) upon which the company built its reputation in the years before its collapse. The message within Enron, employees said, was that the trading business would subsidize huge investments in new ventures like broadband, international power projects and retail energy services until these, too, became money makers. But they never did.
''We'd run up these huge bills, but we weren't making any money,'' one Enron International manager said. ''Enron Capital and Trade made all the money, and we spent it.''
Spend they did. In the fall of 1997, the 1,000 or so employees of Enron International gathered at the Del Lago Resort outside Houston for the unit's annual meeting. To open one morning session, the two top executives, Rebecca Mark and Joseph Sutton, rode into the room and onto the stage on Harley-Davidson motorcycles, engines revving as the Survivor song ''Eye of the Tiger'' blared. Dressed in leather jackets and chaps, they told the pep rally that the international unit was unstoppable.
Each division then put on a skit it had polished for weeks, often with the help of professional choreographers. The capper was when one executive in charge of Enron's big power project in India rode in on a horse and another entered on an elephant. It was the second year that an elephant made it to the gathering, former employees said.
The same culture of competitiveness spurred Enron units to try to outdo one another in the extravagance of their Christmas parties. In 2000, employees of Enron Energy Services attended a black-tie party at the Museum of Natural Science in Houston, its rooms decorated with ice sculptures. That same year, Enron Capital and Trade feted its employees and their companions, about 5,000 people, at Enron Field; one guest remarked on the overabundance of everything that night -- the food, the liquor, the number of waiters. (Last year's planned party at the stadium was to be an all-company affair, in recognition of Enron's straitened circumstances.)
Enron also spared few expenses to impress outsiders. In early 1998, the company hoped to persuade Wall Street analysts it invited to Houston that a new venture, Enron Energy Services, would soon deliver big profits. Assuming that the analysts would be most impressed by the hurly-burly of trading, Enron in three weeks built a highly advanced trading floor at its headquarters.
As first reported by The Wall Street Journal, former employees said they rehearsed what to do in front of the analysts, and on the big day, computer technicians and secretaries were brought in to pretend that they were Energy Services ''traders.'' Enron declined to comment on the episode.
Enron executives had a flair for generating new businesses and renaming old ones. Units were sometimes reorganized three or four times a year, which always meant moving people around, at a cost of roughly $500 a person just to set up a new desk, according to Cheryl Brashier, who worked at the company for nearly 11 years as an administrative assistant. On any given weekend, several hundred people would be moved from one floor to another at Enron headquarters, she said.
Accounting had a hard time keeping up with the continual reshuffling, former employees said, and that gave departments the chance to hide lavish spending. Once a business was reorganized, it received its own accounting ''cost code,'' or identification number, but the old codes were not immediately expunged.
''We were supposed to keep to budgets and orders were supposed to go through us,'' Ms. Brashier said, describing the work of administrative assistants. But employees circumvented procedures by ordering items on their own and by charging purchases to the newly abandoned cost centers.
Like other former employees, Ms. Brashier and her friend Angela Buis, who worked in the Broadband unit, remember Enron's excesses with a mix of amazement and wistfulness.
Ms. Brashier's boss at Enron Capital and Trade, for example, sent 22 secretaries on a New Orleans trip to thank them for their hard work.
''We knew we weren't making money,'' Ms. Buis said. ''But the extravagance, you know, is what made it great to work there.''

If you have a free drive bay floating around your system, you can convert it into a safety deposit box for your USB peripherals using NZXT's Bunker .
The way it works is simple. There are four USB ports in the Bunker, two of which you'll presumably use for your USB keyboard and mouse. Close the lid over the front, turn the lock, and stick the key in your pocket. The cables are routed through an opening too small for accommodate the USB connectors, so if someone still wants to steal your gear, they're going to have to cut the cables first.
"We place a great deal of importance on portability and security," said Johnny Ho u, founder and chief designer at NZXT. "Whether you're transporting your rig to a LAN party or would like more peace of mind in the dorm, Bunker will ensure that your peripherals and media remain secure."
The Bunker will go on sale in March and carry and MSRP of $25.

Newest version of DCGS Integration Backbone improves intelligence sharing
Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance data, such as images provided by the Predator remotely piloted vehicle, are becoming easier to share with the newest version of the Distributed Common Ground System Integration Backbone, version 2.0, which was released Oct. 15, 2010.

Newest version of DCGS Integration Backbone improves intelligence sharing

66th Air Base Group Public Affairs
10/29/2010 -
HANSCOM AIR FORCE BASE, Mass.
-- The October 15 release of version 2.0 of the Distributed Common Ground System Integration Backbone, or DIB, continues to improve on its current capabilities.
The DIB consists of a common set of services and standards that are used across the DCGS community to facilitate sharing intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance information.
"With this version of the DIB, the DCGS programs of record can query each other's holdings and find critical ISR information," said Marine Corps Maj. Tony Barrett, DCGS Multi-Service Execution Team deputy director. "Everyone is talking about the need for intelligence sharing, and this is a giant step forward."
The U.S. DCGS programs of record are Air Force-DCGS, DCGS-Army, DCGS-Navy, DCGS-Marine Corps, DCGS-Special Operations Forces, DCGS-Intelligence Community and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency's National System for Geospatial Intelligence Expeditionary Architecture.
Each of the programs of record has its own metadata catalog, which Major Barrett describes as a technological version of a library card catalog that is populated with that service's ISR information.
DIB 2.0 puts the architecture in place to ensure all the different systems can interact by querying and retrieving information from each other's catalogs.
"We want to be the search capability that allows people to get back what they're looking for - relevant intelligence for their problem," said Major Barrett.
This version also increases security capabilities. Information that was at a higher-level security classification will now also be able to be exchanged with others that have the correct security clearance.
"Our goal is for better intelligence sharing across the battlespace," said Major Barrett. "The DIB allows for that. We currently have the Army and Marine Corps sharing intelligence on Afghanistan through the DIB."
With the version 2.0 architecture in place, the multi-service team is already working toward version 3.0, planned for release in the June 2011 timeframe.
"With 3.0, we are looking to establish a more modular and flexible set of software services that can be integrated by the DCGS PORs [programs of record]," said Major Barrett. "The PoRs can select the services they want to use from the DIB suite of software services and use those in whatever way best supports their mission. This will significantly enhance intelligence discoverability for the warfighter."
Sharing information with coalition partners is another goal being worked on for version 3.0.
"Currently, you may or may not be able to automatically access a coalition partner's information," said Major Barrett. "And they may or may not be able to access ours; this will ensure our automated combined interoperability."
The major emphasized that regardless of the type of information being shared, the ultimate goal for the DIB, and for the Multi-Service Execution Team, is to ensure warfighters have access to the intelligence they need.

what would jesus do?
Anonymous Coward 1747431
your questions are quite strong...
hitler says hell is like a state of sleep...everything is void. (this is making some people very mad btw) In this state one forgets their core. They are in a constant state of terror because their essence becomes stuck to some empty soul that is but an illusion.. thus taking the immortal and turning it into dust.
However, hell can be overcome....
Hitler says jesus overcame hell first to spread his message
hitler says he is already redeemed because jesus taught him the ways to walk as man in another lifetime, on another plane, who did amazing things, whose karma has brought him back today
Anonymous Coward 1747431
Ask Hitler if Hell is the Void.
If that is what is opened as prophesied?
Ask him, if they who emerge from the void do God's Will, then how can that be seen as Evil?
Ask him if the 'Void' is a Vortex.
Again...thank you.
the void is hell , but the hell is not void.
hitler says "hell being opened up" is a metaphor for those beings enslaved by ET's to obtain their consciousness and free themselves from this mental prison.
an influx so to speak
what is evil once you have seen the king?

Survey and Wind Farm Support Vessel02/03/2012
|The UK boat builder Alnmaritec successfully launched a new multipurpose offshore wind farm support vessel recently. Ocean Wind 5 is a variant of the popular Wave Commander class. On deck she is fitted with a payload area both fore and aft and a substantial moon pool, and internally she has a survey station and offers comfortable accommodation for both passengers and crew.
She measures 16m x 7m and is fitted with twin Scania DI16 engines giving her cruising speeds of over 24 knots.
She has a separate raised wheelhouse area providing all-round views from the helm position and the survey station whilst in the main accommodation she has seating for twelve people, mess area, galley and WC. Below decks she has two sleeping cabins. She is designed with the versatility to allow her to provide offshore support on wind farms during the construction phase (she has a generator refuelling capacity), for survey work, for ROV and dive support as well as for technician and tool transfer during routine operations and maintenance phases. She is a genuine all-rounder and a real brute of a boat, as she demonstrated with exceptional sea-keeping performance during her trials on the North Sea in January 2012.

Star Bulk Carriers Corp., a global shipping company focusing on the transportation of dry bulk cargoes, today announced its unaudited financial and operating results for the second quarter and first half of 2013.
Net profit for the second quarter of 2013 was $0.8 million compared to a loss of $4.6 million during the same quarter in 2012
Net profit for the first half of 2013 was $2 million compared to a loss of $4.5 million during the same period of the previous year.
Spyros Capralos, President and Chief Executive Officer of Star Bulk, commented, "Star Bulk is a completely different company, following the successful equity raise of $80.1 million this quarter. Not only its market capitalization has grown to over $150 million today, as compared to about $30 million prior to the offering, but the company has also implemented a growth strategy by ordering four newbuilding vessels and assumed the management of additional third party vessels.
We are pleased to announce Net Income of $0.8 million and Adjusted Net Income of $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to a loss of $4.6 million and a loss of $2.9 million respectively in the second quarter of 2012. Our positive results were mainly attributed to our ability to reduce our operating expenses and utilize our operational and ship management capacity and know-how, as a response to the overall market weakness.
In July we completed successfully our backstopped equity rights offering, which resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $80.1 million. This offering validates the confidence from our shareholders in the Company and our strategy. The majority of the funds raised are being used to fund the purchase price for the two 180,000 dwt Capesize and two 60,000 dwt Ultramax fuel-efficient newbuildings from quality shipyards.
During this quarter, our strategic decision to utilize Star Bulk's ship management capabilities through third-party vessels management has started producing tangible results. Today, Star Bulk manages 6 third party dry bulk vessels and we offer management services to 7 third party product tankers. We have agreed to take under management another 3 dry bulk carriers within the following 2 months. As a result of the above arrangements, our estimated annual revenue from third party vessels management will be around $3.2 million. This will bring the total number of owned and managed vessels in the drybulk segment to 26.
We welcome the recent capesize market rise, as many market participants interpret this as the first sign of a market recovery. In this context, we feel optimistic concerning the timing of our agreements regarding the aforementioned newbuilding vessels.
We anticipate demand for dry bulk commodities from most developing countries to continue to grow and the freight market to start showing signs of improvement due to the lower orderbook, slow steaming and the scarcity of bank financing."

Spent one night here, very warmly welcomed by member of staff and later by owner.
Property was clean and comfortable, smallish bedroom but had everything we required. Very nice modern bathroom. Dinner was good with varied menu, and breakfast also tasty. Small property, but full while we were there in November.

Great location and delicious food
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely location; this is a small hotel with comfortable and clean rooms.
Ours had a great view too. The food in the restaurant was delicious - not cheap but the price reflects the quality ingredients. Breakfast was tasty and filling. Staff were friendly and helpful too. Quiet when we visited but I think would be busy in summer when it is popular with sailing visitors.

This summer I entered an art boat race and decided to make my big bike float. With the help of a friend we made our team and retrofitted my bike so it can now ride on land and float in the water.
Step 1: Gathering your base materials
After I collected a half dozen bikes I picked four of them to use for the four corners of the big bike. For the rear I made sure the rear triangle dimensions were as close as possible. I tried to match the front as well. The pictures show the four bikes I chose set on a chalk outline of the finished bike. I figured out how much room I needed for the seat, and how big I wanted the bike to be. I was limited by the dimensions of a sheet of plywood that I would be using for a roof rack.
Step 2: Framing it up
For the sides I added some light steel rectangular tubing to make the two sides even after cutting the parts I did not want off the bikes.
I then noched the angle iron so that it would fit over the two front necks of the bikes and welded it in place. In the rear I used the bottom bracket and added a heavy metal pipe. These two pieces were extra heavy so the bike could take the weight of everything I was going to add later.
I then added another piece of rectangular tube to finish out the side frames.
Step 3: But how do I make it go?
So to make the pedels I started with another bike frame. This time it was a 80's girls bike with 26 inch wheels. I was only using from the neck back to the bottom bracket so I cut the rear triangle off. The important thing is that the bottom bracket is in line with the outside ones. On mine the frame is a little longer from the bracket to the neck but this is ok as I just welded it out past the angle iron. This middle neck will be where the handle bars go.
Most importantly, all three bottom brackets had to line up. I removed all the cranks and repacked the bearings knowing that once assembled I would need to cut the pedals off to get at them again. For the pedels themselves I just used 1/4 inch pipe and bent it in a pedel shape. Sort of like a Z shape but with the center virticle. Using the existing cranks I then welded the whole thing together creating a two person pedel assembly. Not pretty but effective.
At this point I was able to check out what it would be like with the seat in. A friend gave me some seats off her old art car and I figured I would use as much of those as I could. Looks almost ready to go.
Step 4: Seat and Steering
For the steering I went with a tie-rod assembly. I made this using 1/8 inch metal plates, threaded rod, and misc. bolts and hooks. I welded the plates after drilling them onto the undersides of the front forks. The one in the middle is bigger because it will connect to both tie rods. I was aware of the Ackerman Steering radius and used that in calculating the angle for the outside steering brackets. Unfortunitly I measured incorrectly, instead of measuring the angle from the imaginary rear axel between my rear wheels I measured it from the rear support pipe running between the rear bottom brackets. The first attempt at steering was unusable. So I cut the pieces off and did it again, this time I just stuck them on straight and used the threaded rod to adjust them. To this day the bike turns sharper to the right than to the left but at least it turns.
You can also see in the pictures how I added supports for the bike.
Step 5: Paint, handle bar, brakes, and FUN!
At this point I was running low on time so I could not fit the bike for gears. I made two long chains from all the old chains and fitted them on similar sized chain rings and rear gears. I had some issue with the inside one wanting to fall off so I added a janky chain stay made from metal conduit clamps and electrical tape. I would have prefered to use chain tensioners off the original bikes but I did not have enough chain to loop through them. Note: I added them later when building the bike into a boat.
Well I could make it go, and I could make it turn, but I could not make it stop so I needed brakes. I used the mounts for the rear brakes still on the bike. I fitted it with brakes and ran an extra long cable up to the handlebars. Well without secure locations to keep the cable from moving this did not work well so I just took the cable and ran it along the arm wrest, tying it off around the first vertical frame member. Presto brakes! Now this single brake did not work great but was adequate as the bike just does not go that fast. So when you want to stop you pull up on the brake cable as hard as you want.
After the important stuff was finished I worked on the extra bits. I mounted a metal frame made of two metal shelves on the back and bolted an old steamer trunk to it. This allowed me to carry a cooler and other stuff I may need. I used electrical conduit to build a canopy and then I was ready to bring it home.
Since I don't own a truck I had to mount a piece of plywood to my roof racks and stick the bike on the roof. The lifts at my shop came in handy for doing this. Unfortunitly I would need to get it off with no lift so I made really long ramps to roll it off with. Thankfully I now have a trailer so was able to ditch this method of moving it. With the bike home we tested it around the neighborhood and made final preparations to bring it to the desert. I finished it the weekend before I left and the bike ran like a champ for an entire week in the desert. I used it most of every day, picking up people and riding around. It worked out great for meeting people out on the Playa and going off the ramp of death on Sunday. I only ran into one art piece, bending the canopy, got run into by a large metal hamster wheel, and pitched one passenger out the side when I turned to sharp. She was fine, her head cushioned her fall so I would say it was a success.
The last picture is of the bike after my kids and I put it into a flat skid on wet pavement. Guess I need heavy duty tires if I want to do that. This happened after the bike went to Burning man.
Step 6: New life for an old project. Or how to make a bike into a boat.
I loaded up my bike on my new trailer and took it over to Janelle's garage where we would make it happen.
Step 7: How to make a bike float.
For this change we needed two things. Something to make us float, and something to make us go.
We settled on blue 55 gallon plastic barrels that a friend gave us for float and a paddel wheel to make us go. We figured two barrels would be enough to float us and so we built removable metal brackets to hold the barrels in place. We also used cargo straps to really keep them on. We made the mounts removable so that the bike was not wider than the trailer it would ride on.
On the side with the chain on the outside we had to add standoffs to keep the barrel from pressing the chain down and immobelizing it.
We also knew this was not going to be a dry ride so we replaced the padded seat with old folding lawn chairs that matched great. The pictures also show the cargo tray removed because we need the space for the paddle wheel.
Step 8: Building a paddle wheel.
To build the wheel we used two 5/8 inch pillow blocks and added angle iron to mount them on next to the wheels. For the wheel itself we took a trip to Home Depot and wandered around. In the welding section we found a 5/8 inch shaft 36 inches long that would make a great axle. In the shelfing department we found some hanging shelf wall mounts that we could cut up to mount the paddles too. For the paddles themselves we planned on cutting up a sheet of plywood but when we wandered down the flooring isle we found the perfect item. Open box specials on fake hardwood flooring. Looks great and we only need to trim the length. Plus they sold us the whole box for $10. Total for the paddle wheel was about $30.
To turn the wheel we added a chain ring to the middle set of cranks. To do this we needed to cut the peddles off but we have a welder so its ok. To the center of the paddle wheel axle we added a rear sprocket from a kids bike and welded it in place. Then Janelle cut and welded all the silver shelf bits on where the paddles needed to be. Pretty soon we had a wheel that spun. After running chain up to the front chainring we were in business.
Step 9: We need a rudder or two.
Step 10: Time for the water test.
Step 11: Final modification and Launch
On the day of the event we arrived an hour early and put the barrels on and redecorated out in the parking lot. We were then able to ride it in. The Petaluma sleue is subject to the tides and the tide was low so we left the bike up above the pier and waited for more water. An hour before the race we got some help and carried the bike/boat, now named Blue Stell Disco, down near the water. Lauching it was a laugh as we pretty much tipped it into the water and submerged the front half before we could get the rear half off the pier.
Once in the water we were happy how it floated, it was more stable with the added barrels under the seat and the paddle wheel was a bit further out of the water. We took her out for a short cruise and everything seemed to work fine. The only additional thing we added was a tie-wrap chain guide for the rear paddle sprocket. Out in the river we were slow but we were moving!
Trouble arose shortly before the race started though. We started throwing the chain on the paddle and it would not stay on. During rotation we could feel it jumping and new it would not stay on. We borrowed paddles from another boat and moved out to sit on the blue barrels so we could keep going. We eventually discovered that the front chain ring was filling with river crud, it is a pretty nasty river. After picking all this out the wheel worked better but without lubrication it was just not going to work.
Finally the races began and we decided we had come to far to quite so we decided to continue on with just hand paddles. We were quickly left behind by the other craft and as they circled back around we just decided to interfere with them as there was no hope of ever catching up. Before we reached the turn around buey we realized that there was no way for us to make it back to the starting line with paddles alone. The wind had picked up and was pushing us faster than we could paddle, so shoreward we moved. On shore we tied up our craft and clambered up the embankment and walked back to the starting line.
Sometimes when you build something it does not work out as planned and this was one of those times. We could keep working on it and see if we could get it to work but we both decided it makes a better bike than a boat. We had a great time building it and a great time racing it and being a part of the event and thats what it was all about. We even picked up some fans who cheered for us as we walked by. When we were able to pedel the bike out of the event it was with a sense of accomplishment for trying something new and having a great time doing it.
So get out and build something. If it doesn't turn out as expected or work well change it. This is the process of creating something new and failure is a learning experience.
So I am entering this in the bike contest and in the Hurricane laser contest too. I have access to welders but a laser cutter would allow me to add some really nice detail work to my projects. I could make them pretty as well as functional and would love to have that opportunity. Thanks for voting now seriously, go out and build something.
What an awesome project. I really liked how you were able to repurpose your bike after Burning Man.
So if any of you could use my help please get in touch. I have CNC Mills, manual lathes, full weld and cut shop,andmy wife and friends think I'm a little crazy, but as all you guys who make things like this already know, a little crazy always helps,,,,
I'm in South Carolina, email = firstname.lastname@example.com ,,, have a great one all!
That's a very generous offer to use your shop. The biggest hurdle for a project like this is the all important welder, cutter, grinder, and misc tools that just are not in most tool boxes. I am lucky to be able to use the shop at my work and it is very well stocked with all kinds of tools.
I think what you want to find for your ATV project are the inflatable pontoons that many Kinetic racers use in the Kinetic Grand Championship they hold in Humbolt county each year. http://kineticgrandchampionship.com/
There is a company up there that makes torpedo shaped pontoons. They are expensive but they pack down into the size of a small back pack. I don't know the name of the company but google can help you with a little looking. Otherwise you are forced to have something larger or detachable.
Good luck with the project and I hope work picks up for you in the future......but not so much that you don't have time to build something fun.
btw if thats your girlfriend, your a lucky man!
The rest you can figure out. Think-Out-Riggers on a Canoe .
One question though: how practical are the plastic side barrels on land? I just hope it doesn't spoil any fun when on the road for the size. Butâhey, who said this was a thing only designed for the road in the first place? It obviously ain't no civilized discreet chain and wheel vehicleâ It's a 4 wheeler for innovative thrill-seekers who like to experience some fun adventuring elsewhere, most likely a little farther from the big cities. THAT'S when that bike becomes ultimately practical for any situation!

Say Merry Christmas
Published: Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at 5:40 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at 5:40 p.m.
Editor: This is the time of year when our thoughts turn to giving to and loving one another. That's well and good, but it would be better if we all were like that all through the year.
There is so much evil going on in this world. There is also much hatred of Christianity. Notice that I didn't say religion. There are all kinds of religions in the world but only one true Christianity. A lot of people in this country want to display symbols of their religion next to the manger scene in some places, but all they are trying to do is to take away from the true meaning of Christmas. It's nothing more than an attack on true Christianity.
Christmas has the word Christ in it for a reason. It's because that without Christ, there would be no Christmas to celebrate. Jesus Christ was born of a virgin. He lived on this earth and then he died, was buried and rose again, and that is why we have Christmas and Easter.
They can say happy holidays all they want to, but I still say and like to hear others say Merry Christmas. So to everyone reading this letter, I want to say to you: Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! And I hope everyone has a wonderful and prosperous New Year.

4-year-old basketball prodigy beats kids twice his age, plays like Kevin Durant
Josiah Brown isn't yet in kindergarten, but he plays basketball against fourth graders — and wins.
The 4-year-old basketball prodigy plays regularly at the Wilmington, North Carolina, YMCA, according to Good Morning America.
His most recent feat was winning the free throw competition for 6- to 9-year-olds at the Muggsy Bogues Fundamentals Basketball Camp in Charlotte.
He was also one of two campers who received special recognition from Muggsy Bogues, a former player in the NBA and coach for the United Faith Christian Academy, according to WWAY ABC TV.
Demetrius Brown, Josiah's father, told WWAY ABC TV that Josiah was born to play basketball.
"From the time he started walking, we had a Little Tikes basketball [hoop] in the house, and he just took to it," Demetrius Brown said. "Pretty much all the fundamentals that most kids in their teens are working on, he's working on a four years old."
Josiah's basketball skills include dribbling with both hands and spinning before he shoots, Good Morning America reported.
Demetrius Brown told ABC News Josiah has modeled his free throw technique after Kevin Durant since he was a 1-year-old.

First it was planking. (In case you live under a rock, that's where people take photos of themselves in a horizontal plank position in various, bizarre locations.) And then planking spawned owling, leisure diving, and coning. And now... milking?
No, we don't mean milking a cow. Thanks to the Huffington Post for pointing out the latest (and equally weird) fad; milking is, of course, as senseless and hilarious as all the other fads we've recently seen sweeping social media. It's simple: just pour a jug of milk over your head in a public (and embarrassing, but hopefully not incriminating) location while friends or passerby capture the antics on camera. The trend is said to be born in from Newcastle in Northeast England, when several students were filmed drenching themselves with the beverage. Though posted only a week ago, the video has since received tons of hits, and the craze is taking off in the U.K. If the popularity of planking is any indicator, we bet we'll be seeing much more milking in the U.S. in the next few weeks.
All we can say is, at least planking was dry. And let's not forget the rising prices of milk, too — maybe save the gallon for your cereal.

A Great Stay!
Coast International was an Oasis/Luxury after a long motorcycle trip from Virginia. The staff was fantastic. The food was awesome. The suite was true luxury after many a night in a sleeping bag and air mattress. It was also the gateway to head South to the Kenai Peninsula and the magnificent ride around the Cook Inlet NASCAR track. Beautiful but pay attention.
Great location with a free shuttle to the Airport minutes away.

Coast International hosted the conference for our stay which was convenient, otherwise I would not stay here again. Very dated rooms, confusing layout of hotel, very mediocre restaurant food, no freezer space for fish we caught. Good staff, though.

Good Lodging Near Airport
I selected this hotel because of its proximity to the airport given that we had a 6am flight. Upon getting to the hotel grounds we weren't sure what to expect but once inside and in our room we were satisfied. We were upgraded to a suite, even though we were only staying for one night, and were told the beds and linens were all recently upgraded. And I will say the bed and sheets were very comfortable! The overall hotel seemed dated, the tv in front of our bed was the old tube style and the remote didn't work, there is also no elevator. I also thought it was a little pricey for what you got, but it was the closest name brand hotel with availability and a 24 hour transport shuttle to the airport. I would probably stay here again if I ever need a room in Anchorage.

great location with prompt shuttle service. I checked in at 630AM and the room was ready for me. The beds are great and provided me a good nights rest after flying all night from Russia getting back to the states.

The PIAA playoffs start early in the afternoon Thursday and go right through the evening. Pen Argyl will be one of the first teams to take the field when they face Brandywine Heights at Pates Park. The Green Knights dominated in round one to win by 9 and move on in the bracket. The task tomorrow should be a bit tougher. Brandywine Heights, like Pen Argyl, has been here before and had success before. So this is a battle of two good teams with experience, and two teams that played each other in a very good game earlier this season.

`Difficult for Sanjay to complete all films in a month`
Mumbai: The Supreme Court gave Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt a month`s reprieve in the 1993 Mumbai blasts case, but the producers of his films feel four weeks are not enough for him to wrap up all the projects in hand.
Sentenced to five years in jail for possessing weapons illegally during the 1993 Mumbai riots, Sanjay, 53, wanted six more months to surrender to complete his projects worth Rs.278 crore.
His pending films include 'Policegiri', 'PK', 'Unglee' and the 'Zanjeer' remake.
'Zanjeer' producer Saket Sahni, who is left with seven or eight days of work, including dubbing, said: "It`s difficult to complete all the pending films in one month, but we will start planning backwards."
"We would also want him (Sanjay) to spend some time with his family, so let`s see how it goes," added Sahni.
In 'Zanjeer', Sanjay plays Sher Khan, originally played by Pran in the Amitabh Bachchan-starrer 1993 hit action drama.
'Policegiri' producer Rahul Aggarwal said Sanjay was under pressure now.
"He (Sanjay) is thankful, but he is still under pressure that how he would finish six months` work in a month," said Aggarwal.
Talking about the status of 'Policegiri', he admitted it does not need much time, "just a few days as one song and a bit of dubbing is left".
"In fact, Sanjay himself is asking us to do the dubbing at night," he added.
The actor has already spent 18 months in jail and has to undergo the remaining three-and-a-half-year sentence. The Supreme Court had on March 21 granted Sanjay four weeks - ending April 18 - to surrender. Upholding his conviction under the Arms Act, the court had reduced his sentence from six to five years.

The Rock, Bruce Willis Rule in 'G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation' Super Bowl Spot (Video)
The 30-second clip reveals Willis' character's name, and showcases the G.I. Joe team in action.
In advance of its broadcast during the Super Bowl on February 5, Paramount released their G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation trailer online today. The 30-second clip features Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson mobilizing the film's team before it goes into action in a fast-paced montage of footage.
PHOTOS: Premiere Pics: 'Fast Five' and 'Water for Elephants'
The first theatrical trailer for Retaliation premiered on December 20, 2011, and immediately revealed that the film would only partially continue the story from the first one. In that clip, Channing Tatum and his team are evidently wiped out by an attack from COBRA, leaving behind only Snake Eyes (Ray Park), Johnson's character, Roadblock, and a handful of newcomers, including Lady Jaye (Adrianne Palicki). In the new clip, fans get a closer look at COBRA Commander, whose helmet resembles the snake-headed hood of his cartoon successor, Serpentor, and reveals that Storm Shadow survived the first film to fight the Joes again. And while the first trailer showed Bruce Willis as a member of the Joe team, this clip revealed that his name is in fact "Joe."
