ON THE HORIZON – Corey Trivino, F, Boston Univ.
As the Islanders attempt to earn their first postseason berth since 2007, they could easily look back to the 2008 NHL entry draft in Ottawa as a breeding ground for present-day and future success.
Thirteen selections were made that weekend. Forwards Josh Bailey and Matt Martin, along with defenseman Travis Hamonic have already graduated to the NHL from that draft class. Forwards David Ullstrom and Justin DiBenedetto, defensemen Aaron Ness and Matt Donovan, along with future starting goaltender Kevin Poulin all are playing in Bridgeport for the Islanders' top AHL affiliate, with an eye on reaching Long Island by season's end.
Forward Kirill Petrov also was selected, and continues to be the pick that teases Islander fans, yet still remains in the KHL in Russia.
Selected 36th overall, the first of the Islanders' three second-round picks, center Corey Trivino was chosen for his offensive skill-set. He exploded onto the world scene, playing for Canada's Under-18 team, by collecting seven points – four goals and three assists – including notching a hat trick in a victory over Denmark.
However, injuries could play a cruel trick on a professional prospect, as it has on the 21-year old Toronto native and Boston University senior.
"In my first three years (here at Boston University), I have been overcoming obstacles," said Trivino. "I tore my MCL after my freshman season and broke my ankle at the end of my sophomore season."
Yet, Trivino has never felt self pity. He has turned his own adversity by prospering in head coach Jack Parker's system as one of Hockey East's top all-around centers.
"At the end of his sophomore season, Corey was really coming into his own and was one of our best forwards," said Parker, who is entering his 39th season as head coach of the Terriers. "And despite his injuries, he has made himself one of our best all-around players."
Trivino had scored 56 points – 18 goals and 38 goals – in his first three collegiate seasons. Still, it was his development on the defensive end, in which Parker points out as his greatest asset moving onward.
"Corey came into our system with a big reputation as an offensive guy," said the three-time NCAA champion Parker. "But he has become much more reliable defensively. He's a great face-off guy and is very responsible in his own end. And now that he is a senior, he is being given much more responsibility, and is being very productive."
Trivino netted his sixth goal of the season in Sunday afternoon's 5-0 blanking at second-ranked Boston College. He is now tied with Minnesota Wild prospect Charlie Coyle for second on the team with 10 points, two behind San Jose Shark prospect Matt Nieto.
"As a player, I know that in order to play on the next level I need to play on both sides of the ice," said Trivino. "I believe that I have become a two-way player who plays strong defensively against the opposing top line."
Furthermore, Parker also credits Trivino's development to the Terriers' strength and conditioning coach Mike Boyle.
"Mike (Boyle) has made Corey a bigger and faster player," said Parker of Trivino, who has gained upwards of 20-to-25 pounds since entering Boston University as a 6-foot-1, 170-pound 17-year old. "He sees the ice better, and is much more conditioned than when he started."
Trivino himself goes back to a meeting with former Boston University co-captain John McCarthy, while a freshman, as one that kept his mission much more focused.
"John always told me and the rest of the team that it was important to work hard every day, whether it is at practice or during the game," said Trivino, who played as a third-line center for 2008-09 National Champions.
Over the last three seasons, Trivino has showcased his talents on Long Island, scrimmaging against some of the Islanders' top prospects.
"I see a lot of talent coming through the Islander organization," said Trivino, a self-admitted Toronto Maple Leaf fan. "And over the last couple of seasons, I have had a chance to talk to a couple of the (Islanders) fans. I even have had a chance to invite some of them up to see a couple of B.U. games. They have told me how much they want me to success.
"Their fan base has been very supportive."
Islander management will have until next summer to decide whether Trivino's development is worthy of an entry-level contract.
Parker believes the choice is a no-brainer.
"I know some of the guys in the organization," said Parker, who also coached current Islander net-minder Rick Dipietro for one season before the team selected him first overall in 2000. "They were ready to sign him after his freshman and sophomore seasons. Corey Trivino will be a viable prospect and a valuable member of the Islander organization soon."
Only time will tell.
On the Horizon is a regular feature from Alan Avital that focuses on the best Islanders not yet with the big club. Comments on Corey Trivino and other prospects are welcomed in this thread. Talk about the big club continues in other posts.

Is it free? Or is it gonna be like WoW where you gotta buy a whole new game for the expansion......
Its a free update, there is no WAR expansion in the works, according to an interview 2months back.
"The Call to Arms live expansion, set to roll out for free over the next few months, will also include three in-game live events, a new RvR Scenario, added functionality to the Realm Wars section of the WAR website, the opening of the official WAR Forums, and a new free trial version of the game."
well updates at 30%...... gonna do the 10 day trial thingy
these are major updates, much like WoW's major patches, there's no difference
It's a content patch spread out over several months and worded as an expansion to the game. If you own the original game, then the content from this will always be free.

Currently Testing: Camelot Unchained (PC) & BMX The Game (PC)

The bitter rivals live event is over, it gave some unique items and early acces to the lsayer and the choppa, I've heard that patch 1.2.1 which includes another live event is coming in April.
This is for EU though, I don't know the current state of the US version.
EDIT: I just want you to know that you are very limited in the 10 day trial, I got to rank 10 in 2 days and I couldn't go any further these are the restrictions as far as I know them.
You can't mail,you can't use the auction house, you can't go to tier 2, you can't go past rank 10.

Dear Wayne and Mike.....
I understand he got caught, I am just saying that people/pilots like these who seem to do what they want, usually do not being around for long because they end up killing themselves in a crash. Sorry for the confusion. Blue Skies
FAA regulations state that I and O may not be used in a registration number. http://www.faa.gov/licenses_certificates/aircraft_certification/aircraft_registry/forming_nnumber/
Toby Sharp
What"s to sort out? He broke the law, got caught, got punished. If you did it with your car plates, or drivers license....same results. He learned he has to follow the same rules 99% of the rest of the world follows.
Toby, I'm in agreement here. Nothing to sort. He got caught
This will one way or another eventually sore itself out.
He's probably one of those Dooms Day Prepers...lol
Even if this man is wrong I can see no reason why he should have to forfiet an expensive helicopter. No one would be required to forfiet thier car if they used false tags unless there was something else going on like transporting drugs.
To me the punishment does not fit the crime he was charged with.
what if this move saves his life?
If a person drove without a license their auto would not be seized. This man knows how to fly, if he were that intent on flying I am certain he will find a way without his own helicopter. I see nothing to indicate he is in such a mental state as to threaten his life or the life of others. This reminds me of the U.S.A.F., ARMY, NAVY, and MARINE pilots who have buzzed ships, control towers, and other structures. Were there ever any instances where life was any more in jepardy than flying at FAA minimums over someones property?
The helicopter could crash begining at 12,000 feet or 2 feet AGL, the higher the altitude a craft comes into danger the more massive the impact damage. Can you agree with that?
This kind of punishment is rediculous and expected of an agency that has been given supreme rule over flight in the U.S. It is time to tear down the F.A.A. as we know it and make the agency much less powerful.
The FAA must have been wrong when comercial pilots hav e been found drinking yet flying passengers. They did not seize the planes of the air carriers however in fairness they should have given this nonsense.
i like it ZN..
And he used the wrong color tape.
I agree ZN
There must have been more to this story than is being told. I didn't think that seizure power was around except for drugs and that has to go through a court for approval first. Does the FAA or any other gov't agency have confiscation powers for other than drug related?
Taking his bird is pretty bad..i hope they got the story right..as for saving his life???

Some tricks I know about googling that might be helpful.
We all know
will search all things linux. However, there is also:
www.google.com/arizona (searches the U of A).
www.google.com/asu (searches Arizona State Univ.)
Also, when searching for something you can use the + and - operator, so a search of
foo +bar -this
Will return pages that contain both foo and bar, but not this.
And the last trick up my sleeve is the ~. Adding a tilde in front of the word will tell google to search for that word, pluss any synonyms it has. So a search for
Should also search for Inns, Motels, Resorts, etc.
You can enter "define:" before any search criteria and it will give you a definition.
"A freeware clone of UNIX for 386-based PC computers. Linux consists of the linux kernel (core operating system), originally written by Linus Torvalds, along with utility programs developed by the Free Software Foundation and by others. Since PC hardware is inexpensive and linux is essentially free the combination of the two is a practical way of developing inexpensive and reliable HTTP service.
It also has a basic calculator function where you enter the calculation and you are given an anser.
Enter 34+6
Google will display: 34 + 6 = 40

As an international high-technology conference, OW2 annual conference featured 2 days of high profile business and technical sessions, including:
- Two keynote lectures: lead Ruby language designer Yukihiro Matsumoto, and Java EE 6 specification lead Roberto Chinnici,
- Seven thematic sessions, and over 30 presentations, with speakers from Europe, Asia and the Americas,
- A social events: the Free Beer Party,
- Several "poster sessions".
The Success Stories session was the most successful session, which shows the growing interest in case studies and the recognition of OW2 components for enterprise deployment.
Organized jointly with the conference, the OW2 Village in Solutions Linux exhibition floor was an opportunity for visitors to attend project demos and discover commercial offers by vendors from the community as well as research activities on middleware OW2 technologies.
The OW2 Village was located right by the main entrance of the Solutions Linux exhibition floor. A three-metter OW2 flag was there to immediately catch the visitors attention. Moreover, the i,tersection by the village turened out to be the busiest one on the floor.
This exceptional location was highly appreciated by the OW2 members sponsoring the conference and exhibiting on the village: EBM Websourcing, eXo Platform, XWiki, Engineering, Ingres, INRIA, Bull. This was a unique visibility opportunity given the massive audience of the trade show: 8500 visitors for the 2009 edition.

What is an Alumni Chapter Event Planning Committee?Alumni Chapter Event Planning Committees, what are they? Through alumni chapter event planning committees, alumni are able to develop and maintain friendships and networking opportunities with other alumni, share nostalgic ties to the past, and strengthen their relationship to their alma mater and current students.
There are no dues to be active in the alumni association. Alumni have opportunities to join fellow alumni, friends, and family at local alumni events for social outings, enrichment opportunities and networking connections. Alumni Chapter Planning Committe volunteers identify and plan local events and activities in their area with university support, make connections with other alumni, connect with recent graduates, and participate in many university related opportunities in their area. There are opportunities for alumni to become involved at whatever level you choose.
Mission and Goals of Alumni Chapter Event Planning CommitteesAlumni Chapter Planning Committees around the country have been established where concentrations of alumni exist and where interest in hosting alumni activites has been expressed. The purpose of an Alumni Chapter Planning Committee is: To support efforts of the university to keep alumni informed. To provide a venue for the exchange of ideas between alumni and the university. To provide ways for alumni to network and meet each other in their communities. To involve alumni in career development and mentoring of students and graduates. To plan and host regional events that strengthen alumni ties. To renew friendships developed at the university. To encourage participation in the annual fund and capital campaigns.
Why be Active with Alumni Chapter Event Planning? To network with other alumni, students, and university representatives. To participate in fun, informative, and educational programs offered in your region. To strengthen and renew Shippensburg friendships. To help make Shippensburg more visible in your region. To learn about new programs and people at Ship.
How are Alumni Chapter Planning Committees Organized?The success of any Planning Committee depends heavily upon the leadership and commitment of the commitee. The committee may establish a chair and event coordinators. The structure of the committee is largely determined by the regional population and level of activity in the committee and alumni.
What do Alumni Chapter Planning Committee Volunteers do? Identify and plan alumni events in your area. Research potential locations, and other planning logistics for events. Meet with other committee volunteers and alumni staff to plan future events. Serve as an official representative of the university at area events.
Yes, I want to participate.

Today we're giving thanks ... to one of our favorite viral videos of the year!
Nicole Westbrook quickly became Rebecca Black 2.0 when she released her music video for the song "It's Thanksgiving" -- which swapped "Friday" lyrics like "Yesterday was Thursday, today is Friday" with gems like "January was New Year, April was Easter, but now it's Thanksgiving."
With Nicole using a turkey leg as a microphone and Ark Music Factory's Patrice Wilson popping up to rap and fist bump in a turkey suit, it's definitely one of the most ridiculous things we've seen in a long time.
Sit back, relax and enjoy "It's Thanksgiving."

Super cool video. My only beef is that they didn't mention bicycles.
Winner of The Congress for New Urbanism CNU 17 video contest. This short film explores the connection between New Urbanism and environmental issues.
I've thought about this a lot - this is a big focus in Portland's city planning - developing neighborhoods so that everything you need to do on a daily basis is within about 20 minutes walking distance (which would mean about 5-10 minutes on a bike). I like that Portland is putting some emphasis on growing your own food in the city as well, looking at education campaigns for people as to how to go about doing that, and creating thousands of community garden plots throughout the city. You can also raise chickens at your home in Portland city limits :)
Of course, much of the inner part of Portland is already arranged closely and conveniently, because that's how it was originally designed, but re-zoning and directing new development so that there continues to be a good mix of residential, commercial and recreational helps keep distances short. The longest trip I take regularly is just under 5 miles (and it could be shorter, but I take a longer route that is nicer to ride a bike along).
Now we need to start retro-fitting suburbs so that they are arranged more like small cities in and of themselves, rather than just massive housing developments.
Cycling is great, but I'd argue that walking is better, if your living arrangements are set up for it. I've been walking to work for about thirteen years (this is rare in Los Angeles). It takes me about fifteen minutes from the time I lock my apartment door to when I unlock my office door. I never worry about my bicycle getting stolen, grease on my pants, crashes, etc. I also happen to walk to the gym, grocery, drugstore, dry cleaners, movies -- pretty much wherever I can.
The biggest downside? I wear out my heels more often...
I think the video misses the point entirely. If I was a suburbanite and watched it, my first reaction was that is was attempting to take away my back yard, my garage, the peacefulness of my street.
What it needs to get across is that those things can be kept, but take up much less room when things are arranged in a grid and around a town center.
Until they remove the fear that the city hippies are trying to take away their American Dream, they will never accept New Urbanism. It's really a marketing problem.
Great video. That's exactly what I tend to say. Down with the suburbs! Well ok, that can't be done so easily, but it's possible. It's also about creating subcenters with a certain infrastructure (which will also create jobs in these areas) and not about designing areas that are _only made for living. At least shopping and going to school should - if one doesn't completely live in the mountains - be possible without the need of a car. Otherwise old and young people have no possibility to move around themselves as generally also public transport is difficult to organize and not very efficient in such widespread suburbs.
Very interesting video - sweet and precise.
I agree with Cezar - the idea of New Urbanism is fearful for many suburbanites because it is basically taking away the "rights" and reasons why they choose to live in suburbs at the first place. I believe we need a (re)new way of understanding New Urbanism, at least a different way of presenting what this is all about. Like many environmental initiatives, I don't think New Urbanism is about giving up certain things to do good, to feel good about living. New Urbanism offers the very same comfort, peace and living style that suburbs do AND MORE.
It's not making a choice that "should" be right, but one that simply makes sense.
thanks for sharing
For this to work we need to learn how to live as communities rather than individuals. self restraint and respect for your neighbors are essential.
great video! i hated this stupid wisteria lane life!
You can not demand that those in suburbia give up their lives. In the US, people work damn hard for that life, and to say it is wrong is a bit insulting and counter productive.
If we, instead, not build anymore of them, bring services to the existing suburbs that they need and want, and make city living so attractive that no one wants to live in the suburbs.... then we can move forward.
I think the trick is finding a way to make suburbs more self sustaining as a side effect of making suburban life easier for those who live there, vs just declaring them to be bad.
Sorry, Adrienne, but your argument that people work damn hard to live their dream life is not valid.
Using that argument you could justify the right to buy blood diamonds or a fur coat. Just because you worked hard for it doesn't make it right.
You can not look someone in the face, tell them that everything they work for is wrong, tell them about how you want to take it and change it to what you think is right, and expect them to listen. That is where the environmental movement has made its biggest mistakes in trying to change people's behavior.
That's the point, you can not change anyone. You can only build working, viable examples of what you want to see change and through that, show through example what works better for everyone.
No one has to justify anything. Not to me, not to you. Instead of pointing to the wrong, work to build something better. You will get a lot further.
Adrienne: Good point, let's get on with living a better way. I've noticed ever more discussions about cycling and living simply, but I still get a lot of negative reactions. Maybe that's because people expect to be criticised...
@gorka, wether or not you are right isn't really interesting. It's not about being right, it's about agreeing.
If someone tried to take away my diamonds, I would lash out and react with violence.
If someone informed me that some diamonds are dug out by slaves, and used to finance criminal empires, I'd do what my conscience commanded me to do.
I would, however, never do what your conscience commands me to do. It just doesn't work like that.
Likewise, demanding that people in suburbia give up their lives would not yield positive results. Making urban life better than suburban life, and letting people choose for themselves seems a much better option

Whenever dogs urinate or defecate, specific scent chemicals are passed with the urine and feces. The smell of these substances triggers an elimination reflex in dogs. Pets naturally return to an area where these scent chemicals are present, thus creating "scent posts" - places where pets consistently eliminate.
Cleaning up accidents thoroughly is critical to preventing the creation of "scent posts" in your home. Conventional household cleaners, carpet shampoos, and ammonia do not neutralize the odors resulting in a distressing pattern of repeated accidents in the same spot.
Drs. Foster & Smith Stainaway works with natural enzyme action to eliminate pet stains and odors. The enzymes work on the stains while the bacteria action penetrates deep into the surface digesting the organic waste and removing the source of the stain or odor naturally without the use of harsh chemicals that can be dangerous to your pets.
Directions: Spray the affected area. Allow Drs. Foster & Smith Stainaway to remain on the soiled area for 15 minutes. Rinse or wipe with a wet cloth: let dry.
Note: Try a small amount in an inconspicuous area. Spray, let sit and wipe test for colorfastness.
Ingredients: Water, Enzyme Extract, Propylene Glycol, Nonylphenoxy Polyoxyethanol, Glycol Ether, Amyl Salicylate Extra, Camphor SG1070, Amyl Acetate, Cinnamic Aldehyde, Citronella Oil, Coumarex, Dipropylene Glycol, Eugenol Extra, Geranyl Acetate Extra, Lavandin Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Laitrix Abs, Decolorized Orange Oil Calif., Terpineol Extra, Vanillin, Methyl Salicylate, and Diethyl Phthalate
|How does Stainaway work?
|Stainaway works with natural enzyme action to eliminate Pet Stains and odors. The Enzymes work on the stains while the bacteria action penetrates deep into the surface digesting the organic waste, removing the source of the stain and odor.
|How do I use Stainaway?
|Simply spray the affected area, let soak for 15 minutes, then wipe away with a damp cloth. Stainaway is safe to use on vinyl, Formica, wood floors, and concrete.
|Will it deter my dog from going in the same spot?
|Stainaway has enzymes, which are designed to break up the stain and the odor, so your pet will not be attracted to the treated area. Stainaway is great for housebreaking your puppy or kitten because it discourages them from re-staining the same area.
|Does Stainaway work on old stains?
|Stainaway uses natural microbes to penetrate deep into organic stains that abolish the source of stain or odor. Drs. Foster & Smith Stainaway is effective on either new or old stains, but works best on older stains and odors.
|Will Stainaway discolor my carpet?
|Stainaway is all-natural and should not cause discoloration. As with anything you use on your carpet, always be sure to spot test for colorfastness before using.
|Is this product environmentally safe?
|Stainaway removes stains and odors naturally without the use of harsh chemicals that can be dangerous to your pet. Stainaway is also non-toxic and safe to use on most surfaces.
|Will Stainaway work on old urine stains in carpet that have been cleaned previously with carpet cleaning products?
|Yes, Stainaway can be used for both old, "set in" stains and new stains.

Search Culinary Classes
As so many visitors love to eat Thai food, it's unsurprising that many would want to learn Thai cooking too. Thai cooking classes range from one day fun courses to extensive chef training programs, both of which can be equally fun and informative.
Most Thai cooking classes begin with a tour of a local market to see where everyday Thai's purchase the many exotic ingredients that are used in Thai cooking. A good tour leader from a reputable Thai cooking school will not only explain the ingredients to you, he or she will also explain what substitute ingredients you can find in your home grocery store.
Once back at the cooking school, instructors will demonstrate the process of preparing each course, after which students will try Thai cooking on their own while the instructor observes. Students typically get to choose up to five dishes and normally cook the entire meal themselves; however, this varies somewhat from school to school as many do not require you to pound your own chili paste, a mandatory ingredient for many Thai dishes, including curries.
After cooking in the morning, your meals will be served to you for lunch, and if you've done your work well, you should have a large and fulfilling meal. Students at most Thai cooking schools get to keep their recipe books and souvenir aprons; many Thai cooking schools also have take-home packages of Thai spices and curry paste.
note: some Thai cooking schools will allow you to invite family and friends to meet you for lunch, as the amount of food you prepare is generally too much for one person to consume!

I would like to ask
1. How to return XML or JSON via AJAX Request
2. How can I digest the returned XML or JSON on the JS File that called the AJAX Request
I am using jquery to perform AJAX Request, particularly this way:
// this is the call back function to handle the response
I am using it on my site to perform basic tasks, such as checking if username or email is still available while a user is registering. So far so good, coz I am using only basic things about
but I have another page on my site, where an admin (this is an admin area) can input the id of the user, then all information of that user, such as email, username, firstname, lastname, age, etc.... will be retrieved from the db and be displayed on that page.
Now I dont want the result back as a very long string, I want the result inside some form of a data structure, and that is either XML or JSON
Please do help me on this. Also
3. not so important question, which one is better? XML or JSON?
I know this is like comparing an apple to an orange, but I want to know the basic difference of the 2, such as, which is much easier to learn, much cleaner syntax, etc.. etc..
Please do provide sample codes,
God Speed!

Sources from BlackBerry have confirmed that version 6.1 of BlackBerry Desktop Manager might be coming in the very new future. The update will allow for compatibility with handsets that run the 6.1 version of the operating system. The app will allow users to better customize and make changes to their desktop to better suit their needs.
One of the biggest additions from the update is the ability for the BlackBerry such as Bold 9780 and unlocked Torch 9800 to forget the previous devices that have been backed up and synced. This is a feature that has been highly anticipated from users of the service.
A few screenshots of the new version of the software have made their way online that show a number of options that are available to users. You can set the Desktop Manager to ensure that the software will start up as soon as the device is connected, automatically check for updates to the software, and allow for Bluetooth connections to be made.
This is a huge update that will bring a number of key features to the BlackBerry desktop software. One of the biggest inclusion in the update is the compatibility with OS 6.1, which had previously not been able to connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Software for BlackBerry Torch 9800, Curve 8520 unlocked, etc .
Although this update does take care of a number of key issues, not every complaint was addressed with this update. Hopefully updates that correspond with software updates to the operating system will be much more timely moving forward. Some users have been waiting quite some time for these updates, and the compatibility with the desktop management software is a key feature for many users. The app also offers advanced offers for companies that use the BlackBerry Enterprise Service, and will allow for you to check and synchronize user certificates. It will be interesting to see if Research In Motion adds more features moving forward.

FREDERICKSBURG, Va. (WUSA) -- Fredericksburg police say surveillance video shows a person put an explosive device on the base of an ATM that caused an explosion at 4 a.m. on Wednesday.
An explosion was heard near the Virginia Credit Union in the 2100 block of Gordon Shelton Boulevard at approximately 4 a.m. A resident nearby and the credit union reported it to police at approximately 9 a.m.
Police began investigating the explosive and a possible second device at the bank after a dog indicated there may be a bomb on Wednesday afternoon.
When police arrived, they found an ATM with scorch marks and other damage. They say the ATM was still working and that the suspect may have been trying to get money from it by blowing up the ATM.
The bank and some nearby apartments were evacuated and closed Wednesday afternoon after a bomb detection dog indicated there may be another device.
At 2:15 p.m., the VSP Bomb Unit declared the area bomb free but the bank drive-through remains closed.

Enjoy spectacular views from this Tobago holiday apartment
Hummingbird 1 is a one-bedroom Tobago holiday apartment with air conditioning, surrounded by lush tropical gardens and offering affordable, secluded accommodation. Located below Rainforest apartment, it has astonishing views of the beach and the whole of Castara Bay. It also looks east across the garden to the village beyond and to the rainforest ridge in the distance, where the sun rises. Manta rays can regularly be seen in the ocean below and hummingbirds arrive every few minutes to feed on the bananas and colourful flowers. Bananaquits have even nested in the candle holders that we provide for each accommodation!
The apartment has a private entrance via a flight of steps that leads onto the spacious 20-foot long covered terrace that spans the front of this accommodation.
Hummingbird 2 adjoins Hummingbird 1 and it is possible for two couples or a family to rent both these apartments. When the wooden dividing wall between the terrace areas is retracted it creates a spacious 32-foot terrace that spans the whole front of this accommodation with comfortable seating and dining options.
Facilities and features include the following:
- Bedroom: Air-conditioned double bedroom (12 x 15 foot) with queen size bed, looking directly out to the ocean and beach, and a fitted hardwood wardrobe.
- Shower room: Good-sized shower room and toilet that is beautifully tiled and lit by flush spot lights with dimmer switch.
- Kitchen: Spacious and well-equipped kitchen, finished with hardwood windows, doors and cabinets, all made by local craftsmen. The kitchen has the same spectacular views as the terrace and looks to the ocean and beach as well as to the garden and is located to allow ease of access and socialising with both the indoor and outdoor terraces which makes serving meals and drinks easy and relaxing.
- Indoor terrace: Covered terrace to dine, read, and absorb the ever-changing landscape of ocean, beach, garden and rainforest. This terrace is surrounded by colourful tropical plants that are much visited by a variety of birds and offers seclusion and privacy to those seeking to stay in our Tobago holiday apartment. There are tables and chairs for inside and outside dining,
- Outdoor terrace: The spacious outdoor terrace is the perfect space for sunbathing, al fresco dining and watching the stars.
Hummingbird 1 offers a holiday in Tobago also blessed with the best of the breezes at Castara Retreats and is noticeably cooler on a hot day than some of the other accommodations. We have as usual designed doors and windows with wooden louvers that allow the breeze through at all times that they are open. For those seeking quality Tobago accommodation, Hummingbird 1 offers the perfect location for their Caribbean holidays.

Playoff History
#2 New England Revolution vs. #3 Chicago Fire – Eastern Conference semi-finals (total goals)
Chicago Fire 1, New England Revolution 0 (Game 1)
Toyota Park; Bridgeview, Ill.
October 22, 2006
After finishing the regular season one point shy of second place New England, the Chicago Fire would welcome the Revolution in the first-ever playoff game at Toyota Park.
Despite being outshot 12-8, the Fire would find the game's only goal in the 35th minute when Justin Mapp's placed his left footed free kick over the Revolution wall and inside the right post.
Fire goalkeeper Matt Pickens would come up huge in goal, making eight saves to tie Zach Thornton's record for most in an MLS playoff game.
#2 New England Revolution vs. #3 Chicago Fire – Eastern Conference semi-finals (total goals)
New England Revolution 2 (4), Chicago Fire 1 (2) asdet (Game 2)
Gillette Stadium; Foxboro, Mass.
October 28, 2006
The Fire looked to have command of the series early on when Mapp beat his marker to the end line on the right before centering for Nate Jaqua who touched his effort past Matt Reis at the near post, taking the aggregate score to 2-0.
New England didn't relent though and pulled things level in the 41st minute when Andy Dorman helped put Joey Franchino into the box on the left. The Revolution captain quickly crossed and picked out Taylor Twellman whose shot beat Pickens inside the left post.
The Revolution continued to threaten after the break and would bring things level when Jeff Larentowicz's shot from outside the box was stopped by C.J. Brown but the ball deflected straight to Pat Noonan who calmly finished past Pickens, eventually sending the match to extra time.
Both teams traded blows in the overtime periods but couldn't convert, pushing the game to penalty kicks.
Fire midfielder Thiago would miss the first take while New England converted each of their first four. Ivan Guerrero stepped up and saw his low shot to the left saved by Reis leaving Taylor Twellman to send home the winning penalty and the Fire in the process.
WATCH: 2006 Eastern Conference Semifinal Leg 2
Coming within a Golden Goal of advancement to MLS Cup 2001, the Chicago Fire suffered untimely injuries to the likes of Chris Armas and Josh Wolff, falling in four of their final five regular season matches to limp into the club's fifth consecutive postseason in 2002.
WATCH: 2002: MLS Cup Quarterfinals
Chicago Fire vs. New England Revolution – MLS Cup quarterfinals (first to five points)
New England Revolution 2, Chicago Fire 0
Gillette Stadium, Foxbrough, Mass.
September 26, 2002
The regular season's Eastern Conference champions would go ahead early in the 13th minute when Joey Franchino's free kick from the left out picked out Taylor Twellman in the box who nodded past Zach Thornton for his first career MLS Cup playoff goal.
The Fire nearly equalized minutes later when Jesse Marsch's skipping shot was turned away by Revs goalkeeper Adin Brown, marking the Men in Red's only shot on goal in the match.
The halftime insertions of Hristo Stoitchkov and Dipsy Selolwane to aid Ante Razov and DaMarcus Beasley in attack came to little avail as New England iced the game on 60 minutes when Daniel Hernandez buried a long-distance blast, rebounding off of Zach Thornton's punched clearance.
The result gave New England plenty of wind in its sails heading back to Chicago for Game 2.
Chicago Fire 2, New England Revolution 1
Cardinal Stadium in Naperville, Ill.
September 29, 2002
New England would take the early lead in Game 2 as well when Jesse Marsch's header at midfield bounced into the path of Brian Kamler who calmly one-time a low effort past Zach Thornton in the 18th minute.
The Fire would equalize just before the half when Revs defender Jay Heaps collided with Ante Razov in the area, forcing referee Ricardo Valenzuela to point to the spot. On the ensuing spot kick, Razov tucked his left-footed take inside the right post to equalize before the break.
Into the 76th minute, Carlos Bocanegra fed Kelly Gray in midfield where the young Fire utility player strolled towards the box before playing a beautiful through ball that Razov poked past Adin Brown to give the Fire a 2-1 victory and tie the series at 3-3.
New England Revolution 2, Chicago Fire 0
Gillette Stadium, Foxbrough, Mass.
October 2, 2002
New England would prove too powerful in the rubber match back at Gillette Stadium.
For the second straight match, Brian Kamler would tally the first goal when he took a feed from Leo Cullen before beating Dema Kovalenko down the left wing and CJ Brown in the box to finish past Thornton in the 13th minute.
Despite outshooting the Revolution 17-11 on the night, the Fire couldn't beat Adin Brown and would have their first round elimination confirmed when Daniel Hernandez slipped between DaMarcus Beasley and Jim Curtin before sending a cross to find Twellman in the box. The MLS newcomer half-volleyed his effort past Thornton for his second of the playoffs, giving the Revs their first ever postseason series victory on the way to a spot in the MLS Cup finals.
Yesterday I detailed the heartbreak of the 1999 Western Conference semifinals against Dallas. Today, we look at the run to MLS Cup 2000…
With new commissioner Don Garber coming on board the previous fall, new rules were put in place for the 2000 season, namely 10 minutes of extra time instead of a shootout to decide tied games, the clock counting up (like the rest of the world) instead of down and perhaps hailing to his roots in the NFL, a switch to three divisions of four teams instead of two conferences of six.
Even though the Fire set club records for both points (57) and goals scored (67) in a season, the team still tied for first with Kansas City, but the Wizards owned a superior goal differential (by two goals), leaving the Fire the second seed heading into the postseason.
Because the 2000 playoff run ended up being the longest in club history (7 games) descriptions will be a tad bit shorter.
#2 Chicago Fire vs. #7 New England Revolution – MLS Cup quarterfinals (best of 3)
Chicago Fire 2, New England Revolution 1 (Game 1)
Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill.
September 15, 2000
It would take just four minutes for the Fire to respond though as Revs defender Mauricio Wright attempts a headed clearance of Peter Nowak's free kick but instead hits it off the underside of the cross bar and into goal to equalize.
Fiery, second-year midfielder Dema Kovalenko would provide the winner in the 73rd, receiving a perfect chip from Hristo Stoitchkov in stride before beating a Revolution defender and finishing past Jeff Causey to give the Fire a 1-0 series lead.
New England Revolution 2, Chicago Fire 1 (Game 2)
Foxboro Stadium in Foxboro, Mass.
September 19, 2000
The Fire would surrender the first goal in Game 2 as well when Wolde Harris picked up a loose ball on the right before springing future Fire forward Eric Wynalda through before the then all-time U.S. goal scorer tucked the ball inside the right post for a 1-0 lead.
Dema Kovalenko would find the 83rd minute equalizer when defender Tenywa Bonseu played a 35-yard ball forward from the right sideline and over three player into the path of the Ukrainian midfielder to finish past Causey for the second straight match.
The tying goal would stand only three minutes when Jose Luis Morales's free kick found Mauricio Wright who redeemed his own goal from Game 1 by heading the winner home inside the left post to send the series back to force Game 3 in Chicago.
Chicago Fire 6, New England Revolution 0 (Game 3)
Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill.
September 22, 2000
While Games 1 and 2 were tight, from nearly the first whistle Game 3 was a complete shellacking as the Fire took a 1-0 lead when Ante Razov cleanly finished DaMarcus Beasley's cross in the fifth minute.
Hristo Stoitchkov would put his name on the scoresheet first in the 14th when Kovalenko crossed for the Bulgarian who finished from the left. Three minutes later, Stoitchkov let loose on a 50 yard run before slipping his effort through the legs of Causey.
Into first half stoppage time, Stoitchkov heads Peter Nowak through the middle of the field before the Polish midfielder rockets his effort into the back of the net.
With the game firmly in hand after halftime, the Fire would provide two more strikes as Razov finished Stoitchkov's pass in the 65th before Same George cleaned up Razov's rebound in the 75th. The final goal gave Fire the then most lopsided victory in club history as well as advanced the club back to the MLS Cup semifinals.
#2 Chicago Fire vs. #3 MetroStars – MLS Cup semifinals (best of 3)
Chicago Fire 3, MetroStars 0 (Game 1)
Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill.
September 26, 2000
Despite the Metros holding a 9-7 shots on goal advantage by game's end, the Fire carried the momentum from the previous match over to Game 1.
WATCH: 2000 Eastern Conference Final and MLS Cup
The home side would go up 1-0 in the 21st when Dema Kovalenko's shot from the right eludes the dive of Mike Petke and falls perfectly for Hristo Stoitchkov who taps in from close range.
In the 35th minute, Chris Armas steals the ball at midfield, dibbles down the center channel and plays Jesse Marsch into the right corner. The veteran midfielder then crosses to the middle of the box for Kovalenko, providing the second-year Fire player his third goal of the playoffs.
The team would close out the game late when Diego Gutierrez chips DaMarcus Beasley into space up the left. The rookie winger dribbles around Metros 'keeper Paul Grafer before centering for Razov for an easy finish in the 84th minute to give the Fire a 3-0 win.
MetroStars 2, Chicago Fire 0 (Game 2)
Giants Stadium in The Meadowlands, NJ
September 30, 2012
The MetroStars would bounce back with a solid performance in Game 2, using Mark Chung's individual effort in the 40th before Adolfo Valencia iced the match in the 84th to send the series back to Chicago for the MLS Cup decider a week later.
Chicago Fire 3, MetroStars 2 (Game 3)
Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill.
October 6, 2012
The Fire would get on the board early when Hristo Stoitchkov's corner finds its way through traffic before finding C.J. Brown who touches it inside the left post, scoring his only MLS Cup playoff goal and just one of six in his 13-year FIRE career.
The Men in Red looked to be coasting to an easy victory in the 31st when Ante Razov laid off a ball for Stoitchkov on the left. The former European Player of the Year juked Mike Petke before lashing a beater past Mike Ammann to take a 2-0 lead. If his goal wasn't spectacular enough, his fishing-pole celebration certainly was.
The advantage would be erased within five minutes though as Adolfo Valencia tallied his second and third goals of the series. The first would come just a minute after Stoitchkov's strike, as the Colombian forward glanced in Petke's cross from the right. Four minutes later midfielder Alex Comas' shot was spilled by Zach Thornton and Valencia was there to clean up the rebound.
After a back and forth second half, the Fire would eventually find the winner in the 88th minute when Chris Armas sent a long ball up the middle of the field for a streaking Razov. The club's all-time leading goal scorer beat the offside trap, took a few touched and finished to the right of Ammann to send the team to its second MLS Cup final in three seasons.
#1 Kansas City Wizards (1-0) #2 Chicago Fire – MLS Cup Final
Played October 15, 2000 at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C.
After the two sides tied on points during MLS regular season, they would fittingly meet in that year's MLS Cup final.
The Fire would go down early in the 11th minute when Chris Klein streaked up the right and crossed for Danish striker Miklos Molnar. On a bit of a broken play, Molnar's first attempt deflected off of Jesse Marsch but then fell for him to tap in from close range.
The Fire would take charge of the rest of the match being thwarted time and time again by Wizards goalkeeper Tony Meola. Going through a career renaissance that year, the veteran U.S. international would make a frustrating 10 saves in the match. I'll save the trouble of describing each one by just saying you should watch the highlight video.
After a disappointing finish in 1999, the Fire put in a valiant effort in 2000, falling just one hurdle short of a second MLS Cup in three years of existence.
Six days later though, the team would get some redemption by hoisting its second Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup with a 2-1 victory over Miami.
The MLS Cup playoffs are nearly upon us and even with Saturday's disappointing result, you can feel the excitement for the club's return to the postseason after a two-year absence. With their playoff qualification back on October 7, the team locked in its 12th postseason berth in 15 seasons, by far the best playoff qualification rate of all professional teams in Chicago in both their first 15 seasons of play and last 15 seasons.
With a strong postseason presence through 15 seasons, I wanted to take a year-by-year look back at the club's postseason performances leading up to the beginning of the MLS Cup playoffs next Wednesday.
We'll begin where it all started: The magical run in 1998...
The Fire played their first two seasons in the Western Conference and aptly enough, the first saw them finish where the team could potentially finish this season (second place) behind only the league's regular season champions LA.
#2 Chicago Fire vs. #3 Colorado Rapids Western Conference Semifinals (best of three)
GAME 1: Holding home-field advantage over Colorado, the Fire welcomed the Rapids to Soldier Field on October 1, 1998.
After forcing Colorado 'keeper Marcus Hahnemann into five first half saves, the Fire would take advantage of Rapids defender Steve Trittschuh for the first time in the series when he pulled down Peter Nowak in the box, leaving refree Kevin Terry to whistle a penalty.
WATCH: The 1998 Playoff Run
As he'd done four out of four times during the regular season, defender Lubos Kubik blasted his effort to the top left corner to give the Fire a 1-0 lead in the 50th minute. Facing a loss in Game 1, the Rapids would equalize in the 79th when Adrian Paz's cross from the right was deflected by C.J Brown and found Waldir with a diving header at the back post, forcing the game to a shootout.
In the decider, Tom Soehn and Frank Klopas converted to cancel out goals from Paul Bravo and Chris Henderson in the early rounds. Fire 'keeper Zach Thornton then took over, making three consecutive stops on David Vaudreuil, Wolde Harris and Peter Vermes before Jesse Marsch chipped Hahneman to clinch the win and give the Fire a 1-0 series lead.
GAME 2: The Fire traveled to Mile High Stadium for Game 2 on October 5, knowing that a victory would push the team to the Western Conference final.
Once again, Peter Nowak would take advantage of Trittschuh, going on a stunning run through the Rapids midfield before being tripped up by the former U.S. international at the top of the box. For the second time in five days, Lubos Kubik would step up and convert his spot kick, this time placing a low effort to the left of Hahnemann in the 42nd minute.
Thornton would stand tall, making two second half saves to give the Fire a 1-0 victory and push the team to the conference finals.
#1 LA Galaxy vs. #2 Chicago Fire Western Conference Finals (best of three)
GAME 1: Five days after advancing, the Fire traveled to The Rose Bowl to take on top-seeded LA on October 10. The Galaxy would outshoot the Fire 11-5, with the Fire not registering a shot on goal until the 86th minute.
Luckily enough, the two that came with just four minutes to play would be all the visitors would need as Lubos Kubik's free kick was stopped with a diving save from Kevin Hartman before Jesse Marsch was there on the doorstep to tally his second winner of the postseason, sending the Fire back to Chicago with a 1-0 lead.
GAME 2: The Fire welcomed the Galaxy to Soldier Field on October 16 and would once again take the first lead.
In the 31st minute, C.J. Brown sent a long ball over the top and into the stride of Ante Razov. The U.S. international sped into the box before seeing his close-range effort stopped by Hartman but Captain Clutch Peter Nowak saw the rebound fall to him near the penalty spot and he fired the effort past the Galaxy 'keeper to give the Fire the lead.
It lasted just six minutes as Cobi Jones cross from the right found a wide open Danny Pena in the box. With acres of space, Pena was able to take two touches before hitting a low effort to the inside post, catching Thornton flat-footed and equalizing just before the half.
LA outshot the Fire on goal 2-0 in the second half but couldn't convert, forcing the Men in Red to another shootout. Through the first three rounds, the Galaxy held a 1-0 edge as Welton tallied while Nowak, Razov and Soehn all failed to convert for the Fire.
As he did against Colorado in Game 1, Zach Thornton would come up huge at the end, making three consecutive stops on Martin Machon, Mauricio Cienfuegos and Greg Vanney while Marsch converted and Podbrozny hit the back of the net to push the team into MLS Cup in front of 32,744 at Soldier Field.
Chicago Fire vs. D.C. United – MLS Cup '98 – The Rose Bowl; Pasadena, CA
After wrapping up their conference final series in two matches, the Fire would return to The Rose Bowl on nine days rest while opponents D.C. United came into the match having played just four days prior against the Columbus Crew in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference final.
Facing the only champions the young league had ever known, the Fire were outshot by United 9-6 in the first half but the advantage wasn't reflected on the score board.
In the 29th minute, Nowak's quick combination with Razov saw the Fire captain into the box on the left. Now in, the former Polish international simply slid the ball across to an open Jerzy Podbrozny who slotted past Tom Presthus to give the Fire a 1-0 lead.
It was Nowak again helping to pad the Fire's lead just before halftime. This time, the future Ring of Fire inductee cut into the box from the left before unleashing a blast that took a deflection off the chest of Diego Gutierrez, sending Presthus to the right while the ball trickled in on the left.
As he had in so many previous playoff matches, Zach Thornton stood tall in the second half, making six saves and visibly frustrating United to give the Fire an unprecedented MLS Cup title in their expansion season.

By cleaning their boots, fishing equipment and boats, anglers can do a lot to help protect their favorite fishing water from the newest threat to Utah's trout fisheries.
The threat is the New Zealand mudsnail. Although it's only three-sixteenths of an inch long, it can develop colonies of more than 300,000 mudsnails per square yard.
These colonies compete for food and space needed by trout and other native aquatic organisms.
"The first discovery of the New Zealand mudsnail in North America was in Idaho's Snake River, in 1987," said Don Archer, special aquatic projects coordinator for the Division of Wildlife Resources. "Since then it has spread to several premier trout streams, including the Yellowstone and Madison rivers."
Mudsnails were found in Utah in 2001, when snails were discovered in the Green River, below Flaming Gorge dam. Since then, they've been found in eight different watersheds in Utah.
"All New Zealand mudsnails are females and reproduce asexually, which means only one snail is required to establish a new colony," Archer said. "They're capable of producing several broods of young each year and are very effective at colonizing new waters."
According to Archer, in some locations, mudsnails compose more than 95 percent of the biomass.
"They dominate these areas and because they pass through the digestive system of trout unharmed, they provide little or no food resources to fish," he added.
New Zealand mudsnails also have a hard shell, with a protective operculum that closes the shell when the snail encounters adverse conditions. This makes them very hardy.
Their small size also makes it easy for snails to be inadvertently moved from water to water on angler's boots, boats or other gear.
"Mudsnails can easily become lodged in the felt soles and lacings of wading shoes," Archer said. "Anglers also spread mudsnails when they discard the entrails of cleaned fish into the water they've been fishing or when they don't clean their boats thoroughly."
Archer said anglers can avoid carrying mudnsails from water to water by thoroughly cleaning, drying or exposing their gear to freezing temperatures or hot water.
Research has shown that the snails are very vulnerable to freezing and high temperatures at low humidities.
"Wash your equipment in water that's in excess of 140 degrees F. and allow it to dry for a couple of hours, or freeze your gear and keep it frozen for at least eight hours," he instructed. "Either method will destroy any mudsnails that are on your gear."

BUFFALO, N.Y. - As the historic gun control law goes into effect, some local counties say it will cost taxpayers.
That's because county clerk departments that issue permits to gun owners, now have another job of renewing permits every five years.
This will be a big change for these departments and for gun owners with pistols, because its never been required, until now.
"Right now, previous to [Tuesday], previous to the law being passed, you would get a pistol permit and it's a lifetime permit, now, it's termed every five years you have to re-certify," said Christopher Jacobs, the Republican clerk of Erie County.
Some county clerk departments, like the one Jacob's runs, have small staffs and are busy. They say the mandate will be a massive undertaking and cause department costs to rise. Jacobs says the cost for the gun owner to renew would be free, but that hidden costs will likely be passed onto taxpayers. For example, in Erie County, there are about 75,000 pistol permit holders. Jacobs says more people will need to be hired to work longer hours to renew these permits every five years.
"We have a lot of people coming everyday in our offices with limited staff, now to have to [be] renewing them or re-certifying them, to do that with our existing staff is not feasible," said Jacobs.
He says he's not opposed to re-certifying handguns, just wants to know if the state will help fund this effort.
"If we don't increase staff, you're going to see much longer lines and much more wait times for the permits," he said.
Longer wait times and extra costs are things plenty of lawmakers are also concerned about in Niagara County, where about 29,000 gun owners with pistol permits live.
"You know that's going to be spread not in one year, but over multiple years, it's going to become a continuous process and there's a cost to the taxpayer," said David Godfrey, a Republican Niagara County legislator, who represents the 10th District.
Owen Steed, a Democrat, who represents the 4th District believes cost shouldn't even enter into this discussion.
"My major concern is that we don't become a Newtown, Connecticut, one day. It's saying not to pick up your kid from school to identify them laying on a gym floor," he said.
Some Republicans say that it's the average gun owner who will bear unnecessary checks.
Right now, there's an eight to ten month process to apply for and eventually get a pistol permit and the gun. This includes fingerprinting to going through mental health and background checks. County leaders say this time frame could be even longer.
Another task the clerk departments will be responsible for is monitoring which permit holders wish to keep their addresses private or public knowledge.

CARLTON, N.Y. - A Waterport man is facing murder charges in connection with the death of his housemate.
The body of 53 year old Rachel Miller was found along Oak Orchard River Road around 7:00 a.m. Monday morning.

Orleans County police say a passerby in a car saw a woman lying on the side of Oak Orchard River Road and called 911.
An autopsy is being performed to determine the cause of death.

Crash cymbals are an effective way to highlight a break in a song. The peak of a melody can easily be emphasized with a swift tap on a well-made crash cymbal. This tried and true tactic makes finding your signature cymbal sound all the more important. Historically, crash cymbals were typically used in larger orchestras to help emphasize swelling crests of sound or major trumpeting crescendos. Being used at intense moments has always been the crash cymbal's forte. This still remains true to this day, despite musical styling having changed so drastically from traditional symphonic offerings. If you're a hard rocker, you'll appreciate a thicker cymbal due to its more hearty tone that can cut through loud guitars and bass. Despite a crash cymbal's thinner edge, it still can create a resounding noise. Jazz drummers and more mainstream artists often try the thinner offerings to give a song body with a light tap or brighter crashing sound. The ideal finish can allow the drummer to enjoy a signature sound. An oxidized crash cymbal offers a trashy feel embodied by bands like The White Stripes and The Velvet Underground. The garage band sound so prevalent today is displayed by the intense muted sound that riding on a 'dirty' crash cymbal can bring. A bright and clean finish gives you the option of a clear crash sound that slices through the guitar and bass with precision. When you hear a crash cymbal it truly captures your attention, displayed beautifully by Queen in Bohemian Rhapsody. With crash symbols, size matters. The most versatile size is an 18" as it helps round out a band's overall sound. The smaller sized crash cymbals work well with lighter rock but are much richer sounding when paired with a larger size. You can open up your sound with an array of sizes, making your performance completely customizable. Your personality shows through in how you use your crash. It's an extension of your aesthetic and can quickly help you develop your own signature playing style. Trashy or classy, the crash cymbal dresses up or dresses down any musical endeavor.
