With Powertools Lite 2013, you can take care of the obsolete entries without worrying about setting a backup and enhance the system performance.

Custom To Go Inspector Stamp
People love getting a cool business card, but might love it more if they see the process of how it was made. Burton explains, "Like many designers, I am drawn to all sorts of handmade printing processes. I find the imperfections of each is what makes them so intriguing, from the mottled textures created by letterpress, to the chalky quality of screen printing ink. I try to incorporate these textures into my work as an illustrator and designer because they add authentic character to work I do on the computer."
Mikey Burton collaborated with Cranky Pressman to create this custom to go Inspector Stamp, a small, metal, self-inking stamp that comes on a keychain. The "classic" business card is often a ritual simply to impress the receiver. The idea with this card is that it does away with the usual pretentiousness. With this stamp, you are able to print your condensed snippet of info onto any substrate—a beer mat, someone else's business card, a napkin, or even someone's hand.
Good to know: Cranky Pressman is not some cute boutique. They offer full letterpress production for creative professionals. ❚

Romeo Must Die
Romeo and Juliet is a classic love story that has been remade in movies for decades. Some remakes stay true to the characters and others, like Romeo Must Die, have modified the story a bit to fit with the changing times. This was one of the movies that was turning Aaliyah into a true triple threat because of her uncanny ability to rule a stage and also be able to command a screen.

This is a nice family park. Sites are close, but there are trees. Lots of nearby activities. Office personnel should become more familiar with the park and inner workings. Had to remind the counter person to give us a map so we could find our site, had to ask for a receipt, and remind her we were extending our stay. Sites can require some delicate navigation due to closeness and large trees. - h2oskier

Beautiful park with easy on/off to I-17. We were assigned a spot but call office and ask if we could move so we could get satellite reception. Very friendly staff. Will stay there again this fall. - lnpdavis
Sep 2014 - $32.00
Arrived to be assigned a spot ( number 35) next to the store/office. Low branches made entering the site very difficult. There were many scrape marks on many of the branches. You are asked to sign a release when arriving. Sites are level and hookups fine but sites alternate entry points making your door facing the next camper. Just a little more than a picnic table width between campers. Not enough to enjoy any outdoor time. The dog park was nice but far away from most campers and on rainy days required a drive. Laundry was very nice, pool was available but not used while we were there. Too tight for my tastes so if it is for just overnight it is doable but for longer stays go to plan B. - elaine170

Check Out My New Ink (3 New Tattoos)
Hey Guys! So if you didn't know already I love tattoos, I have about 7 of them now. But let me give you a little background on some of them first. My first ever tattoo is of this little guy I was 16 when I got this butterfly tattoo on my back (shoulder blade) it used to be cute and full of color, but over the years the color faded and it just turned into something that I didn't like anymore. I had planned on covering it up for years but for no reason in particular I just never got around to doing it. So last weekend I found a new tattoo artist and went had this covered up along with some other work done. Here is what now covers that little sad butterfly This pretty little black and grey hummingbird :) I love it! it's so pretty; I loved it so much I got it twice! I had another hummingbird added to my other shoulder blade. The two birds represent my two little kiddos I have. I choose the hummingbird because they are not only pretty birds but they … [Read more...]

Life of a Dancer: My 9 year old daughter
Hey Guys, Last night I took a couple of fun pictures of Jordyn to share with you all what she does around the house ALL day and night long. Please excuse the poor quality and bad lighting, it was night and I used my lame-o camera phone that doesn't have a flash. She has been dancing since she was 4 years old and competitively dancing since age 7, she lives breathe and eats dance and gymnastics! She taught herself how to do this varatition of an elbow stand by watching youtube videos.

A Shade Of Vampire: Book Review
Hey Guys, Fact about Tiffany: I am a reader, yep it's true I love to curl up with a good book like ALL the time. I've been into reading since I was kid, back then it used to be Goosebumps and Sweet Valley High books :) Now as an adult I enjoy all kinds of genres and books. Now you may have noticed that I've never once posted a book review on my site, why you might ask? Well because most books I read aren't really approperiate for a review on my family friendly site, not that I am reading bad stuff but they are more adult as in topics, language and so on. Also I never wanted to get too much into reviewing books because it just opens the door for everyone to throw a book your way to review and I'm actually quite picky in what I read, I have to be interested to spend my time reading a book and then reviewing it on my site. So with that said I was recently contacted by an author, Bella Forest to review her debut book, A Shade Of Vampire. Page Count: 150 Release Date: … [Read more...]
All The Reasons Why I am A Crappy Mom #crappymom
As I was catching up on all of my fave blogs I came across two very interesting and honest posts by Melissa and Tiffany from Home Grown Families. They were both equally thought provoking and entertaining might I add so I thought to myself am I am crappy mom? I sure am! And here are all the reasons I am: I am not my kid's friend, I am their mother My husband and I are both strict disciplinarians (it's okay to feel sorry for our kids, our friends do : / ) When I cook dinner if they don't like it, there is no alternative or other options they go to bed hungry With that being said I don't cook dinner nearly often enough so on days that I don't cook they fend for themselves ie: sandwiches, frozen foods, quesadillas, etc) and I don't feel guilty one bit I swear in front of my kids and sometimes at them. I know it's horrible and I am trying to work on that, my mother cringes every time she hears it, my dad doesn't blink an eye probably because when I was growing up my mom … [Read more...]
Las Vegas, NV: Family Vacation Recap
Hey Guys, Back in June we took a little family vacation of sorts, my daughter is on the competition team at her dance studio so she had to attend and compete in the National Competition that was held in Las Vegas, NV. I of course left my camera at home so all of these pictures were taken with my cell phone, so please excuse the poor quality. We stayed at the Circus Circus hotel on the strip, in the newly remodeled tower and here are a few pics of our room. Nice eh? I thought so, this hotel is perfect for families because they have sooo much for the kiddos to do. They have an indoor amusement theme park called Adventure Dome. I was lucky enough to score a great deal when I booked our room for a coupon booklet filled with awesome deals. So we took the kids to Adventure Dome and they rode this ride Here's another view Of course you can't this picture is small and they look like ants. They are in the second row from … [Read more...]

Rudisha sticking to 800m
Kenya's smooth-running 800 metres world record holder David Rudisha has ruled out competing in either the 400 or 1500 events in the near future.
Related Links
"It is very hard to double, it's a little bit tricky. I don't think I can take a risk to double so I am really working towards the 800," the 22-year-old said in a conference call from his African home on Thursday.
Rudisha will attempt to land his first world title at the August 27-September 4 world championships in Daegu, South Korea while also competing in the $50 million elite Diamond League 14-event schedule that starts on May 6 in Doha and ends in September.
Rudisha broke Wilson Kipketer's 13-year record by 0.02 seconds in Berlin last August before bettering that with 1:41:01 a week later in the Italian venue of Rieti.
The effortless manner in which Rudisha sweeps around the track has led to talk of him breaking the elusive 1 minute and 40 seconds barrier.
"I said that as a possibility but it's not that easy and this year there are other things to concentrate on, the world championships being the priority," he said.
"After that I will see if I can do one or two fast races."
There are two Diamond League meetings after the biennial world championships, in Zurich on September 8 and September 16 in Brussels.
"This year I think I'm a little bit behind in my training, but I think I'm going to do well in Doha," Rudisha said, adding he would also run in Rome on May 26 and in the non-Diamond League Ostrava meet on May 31.
"I think Rome is a good place for a fast time," he said.
So far this year Rudisha has run 1:43:88 to retain his Melbourne Track Classic title last month.
The 1.90-metre Kenyan has never run in London and preferred not to think about the 2012 Olympics where he could emulate his father's silver medal in the 4x400 relay at the 1968 Mexico City games.
"We'll see when the times comes, I can't talk about that now," he said.

Anoka-Hennepin School Board holds contentious reading of revised "neutrality policy"
Last night's Anoka-Hennepin School Board meeting was the first time the public was able to react to the language replacing the district's controversial Sexual Orientation Curriculum Policy. The so-called "neutrality" policy's most stalwart allies and vehement opponents were all on hand to speak their minds.
Even Janet Boynes, the ex-gay minister with ties to Michele Bachmann, made an appearance.
"Removing the present Sexual Orientation Curriculum Policy . . . opens the door for promotion of the homosexual lifestyle in the classroom," she told board members.
The district's policy is the basis of a federal lawsuit filed by the Southern Poverty Law Center against Anoka-Hennepin, claiming that it creates a discriminatory environment for gay students. The key part of the policy reads: "Anoka-Hennepin staff, in the course of their professional duties, shall remain neutral on matters regarding sexual orientation including but not limited to student led discussions."
District officials insist that redrafting the "no-homo promo" has nothing to do with the lawsuit. However, the replacement policy, renamed the "Controversial Topics Curriculum Policy," does not specifically address sexual orientation and the word "neutral" is nowhere to be found. It reads, in part:
The study of controversial topics shall contribute toward helping students develop techniques for examining controversy, be appropriate to maturity and developmental level of students, be of significance related to course content, and presented in an atmosphere free of bias and prejudice.
Teachers and educational support staff shall not advocate personal beliefs or opinions regarding controversial topics in the course of their professional duties.
Not a single person who spoke during last night's meeting, however, felt the new language is an improvement.
"The first thing that came to my mind was, 'Now we're going from neutral to labeling LGBT youth as controversial,'" said Tammy Aaberg, the mother of a district student who committed suicide in 2010 after being bullied for being gay. "My worry is that this policy will start this whole cycle all over again."
Aaberg and other LGBT advocates want the policy eliminated altogether.
Barb Anderson of the Minnesota Family Council was also in attendance. She echoed the sentiment of other speakers that district chair Tom Heidemann is going back on his promise during board elections to defend the neutrality policy.
Anderson was a district parent who helped write the most harshly worded version of the policy in 1995, which dictated that "homosexuality not be taught/addressed as a normal, valid lifestyle."
"We will see more homosexual propaganda flooding the classroom," she said ruefully.
The board members will vote on adoption of the new "controversial topics" policy in January, but have not yet specified the exact date.

Date of visit: June 18 – 25
Room# 64208
My husband and I chose the Ambar to celebrate our anniversary this year, and this was our first time in the D.R. We're normally Mexico people, but decided to switch it up. We also usually don't travel until November/December… so there was a couple 'firsts' here.
We knew going in it was the beginning of their rainy season, but the weather was absolutely horrid. Though obviously no fault of the hotel, it did set the tone for our vacation when it rained every single day and we found ourselves spending more time inside the resort (rather than on the beach) than we normally do on a vacation.
My reviews tend to be quite comprehensive, and this is will be no exception, so I'll start with the good stuff.
I sent two emails to the resort a week prior to our arrival. One was to request a room, and another to book our a la carte restaurants for the week. I requested a corner room in building 64 (the middle of the 3 buildings closest to the beach), and on arrival I was pleased that request was honoured. I'll address the 2nd email later…
The property is undeniably gorgeous. The grounds are beautifully manicured, lots of greenery and pretty flowers everywhere, walkways are kept clean of debris, well lit at night, and it's just a very serene, peaceful atmosphere.
The beach is amazing. Picture postcard perfect. Really.
I'm not a pool person so I can't say, but we heard from other guests the pool is fantastic. Water is nice and warm, very clean, etc.
The rooms are spacious and immaculately clean. Having a corner room, we had a nice big balcony with a great view of the pool and the ocean (through the trees as we were only on the 2nd floor). The A/C in the room worked GREAT and actually found myself a little chilly at night. With the extreme heat/humidity during the day, being chilly was a welcome thing ;)
The maid service was fantastic. She was consistent and thorough. Because of the constant rain, we left our room at different times each day.. but it didn't matter what time we left or came back, we just put out our 'clean me' sign on the door, and our room was done when we got back. Even if we were only gone an hour. That's always a big plus for us.
The staff for the most part was friendly and eager to please. We found the overall demeanor of the people different than in Mexico, I can't really define it.. not quite stand-offish, but maybe a little less 'warm' and eager to converse? We're pretty generous tippers and tip everyone we come in contact with around the resort, and it didn't seem to make a difference.. so it's probably just a cultural thing.
Now for the not-so-good stuff. There are a few things that (in my opinion) prevent this resort from being a 5-star property.
If you're traveling in 'low season', as we did, you could find yourself very hungry between the hours of 10:30am – 12:00pm, and 3:30pm - 7:00pm. There is nothing open between these times, and although the literature says the snack bar (Las Brisas) is open from 10am to 10pm, this isn't the case. They do serve an early morning buffet though, which I think is the best kept secret on the resort because it's always quite empty. Due to our room practically overlooking the snack bar, I just happened to notice people eating in there one morning and we figured it out. The buffet doesn't re-open for lunch until 1pm and dinner until 7:00pm, and the snack bar is about the same timeline. So, unless you have a reservation at an a la carte, or feel like wandering around the sister properties looking for food, don't plan to eat before 7:00pm.
We're not particularly fussy eaters at all-inclusives, but we do know good from bad, and the food in both the main buffet and snack bar was mediocre at best. Of particular concern is the preparation of the food. On 2 different occasions I bit into chicken that was pink in the middle, and meatballs that were practically raw in the middle. For the first time on a vacation, both my husband and I got sick (food sick, not cold/flu sick)… and we were sick for 3 days. Not pleasant.
The a la cart restaurants… lol, where do I begin. So the 2nd email I mentioned sending prior to our arrival was to pre-book our a la carte meals for the week. Not a fan of the reservation system at the best of times, but this takes it to a different level. So I received an acknowledgement of that email, stating they received my requests, and as soon as the schedule came out for the week they would book them. I never received a subsequent email with reservation numbers, so I wasn't hopeful. The day after we arrived, we went down to Guest Services to confirm what I had booked in the email, and of course we weren't booked for any, nor did they have any record of my email. I showed them the email on my cellphone and got the 'blank stare'. So, the restaurants I wanted, on the days I wanted, and the times I wanted were not available, and we basically had to take whatever was available for the week. For the record, I really don't enjoy eating dinner at 9:00pm.
We ate at El Olivo twice, Don Pablo once, and El Charro (TexMex) on the Bavaro side once. They were all pretty good, with Don Pablo probably being the best meal we had all week. Husband had the lobster and I had the filet mignon, both prepared quite well, nice presentation, etc.
I feel they are being unnecessarily pretentious with the whole a la carte reservation thing, making a big deal about availability, when the restaurants were never more than half full on any of the times we went. Our 2nd trip to El Olivo, she even had to do our reservation in 2 parts (1 person at 7:45 and 1 person at 8:00) because they were just THAT packed. We arrived together at the same time (8:00) and of course there was 20 empty tables. Pretty funny, really.
A few other items that put this just outside the 5-star category is;
No beach butler service
No in-room wifi (lobby bar only)
No in-room iPod docking station
A couple airplane-sized bottles of liquor in the minibar rather than the cabinet system.
Minibar 'snacks' consist of one daily bag of potato chips
No nightly turndown service. We did get turndown service one night, but we weren't even expecting it.. so we didn't leave a tip out or 'pre-tidy' up or anything. That was kinda weird.
If you have lots of things to plug in, you might want to bring one of those multiple-outlet plug adapters. There's ONE outlet (not even the 2-plug type, just one) in the bathroom, and ONE outlet bedside, which the alarm clock is plugged into. My husband has obstructive sleep apnea and uses a CPAP mask which needs to be plugged in, so we went without a clock radio all week. There's another outlet in the corner of the room that the floor lamp plugs into. That's it!
Also, the lighting in the room is very week, I think they use like 20-watt bulbs so if you like to read at night, bring a battery-operated reading lamp… or a miner's hat ;)
So in all, notwithstanding the crummy weather and mystery illness, it was a good value for the money. I wouldn't go with the expectations of being a luxury 5-star resort, as I see it listed as on travel sites.. and considering this trip cost about a quarter of what we normally spend for a week I'm not too disappointed. If you want a beautiful, clean resort with a nice beach and aren't overly picky about food, it's a good deal :)

C.C.: Honey, I Shrunk The Kids
French class? I don't get it...
Well, everyone, Halloween is almost here. A time full of ghosts n' goblins, stuffing your face with candy, and most importantly, Halloween-themed movies and specials. Last year, I only did two countdowns, Top 10 Monsters and Villian Songs. This year, I'm doing things right. We're starting off with the 1989 Disney film Honey, I Shrunk The Kids. It's technically not a horror film or a film with Halloween mentioned at all, but what could be more scarier than your own dad shrinking you down to the size of Pauly Shore's popularity?

Honey, I Shrunk The Kids (1989)
Directed By: Joe Johnston
Starring: Rick Moranis, Matt Frewer, Marcia Strassman, Kristine Sutherford, Thomas Wilson Brown, Jared Rushton, Amy O'Neill, Robert Oliveri
"Honey, I shrunk the Roger Rabbit cartoon!"
As much as I love Disney, I never did care for their live-action stuff. The problem with these movies is that most of them are just the equivalent of a family sitcom that's so bad that not even TGIF would accept them. The plots are mediocre and predictable., the characters act like idiots, and the happy endings are too sappy and cliched.
Shield your eyes!
However, there are some exceptions every now and then. This movie is certainly one of them. This is how Disney should make their live-action films nowadays. It's good-natured and fun for the family, and it's nice to see that it made more money than some of the more abysmal family films of 1989. But how?
Like Killer Klowns From Outer Space, this movie has that title that draws you in like a magnet. You'll have no choice but to see how this film will begin and end. "Holy shit! Someone shrunk their kids! I have to see these shrunken shenanigans!"
Hey, I 'll take THAT over College Road Trip anyday!
A young Rick Moranis wonders where his carrer will take him in the future.
Wayne Szalinski (Moranis) is a crazy scientist who invents a shrinking machine that is so powerful it only blows things up. When the kid next door hits a baseball through the window and it lands in the path of the machine's laser, it shrinks Wayne's two kids plus the two kids next door end up becoming tiny. Wayne accidentally sweeps them up and puts them out with the garbage, so the kids then have to travel through the thick grass back to the house, while braving giant bugs, sprinklers and a lawn mower.
I hope you're not the squeamish type when it comes to unnecessary close-ups of insects, because you get plenty of that in this movie. You get bees, ants, and even a scorpion (!) getting too much screen time. I'm not really a bug person, so these close-ups kinda creeped me out.
This may not be a major concern to most people, but it certainly bothered me: the animals in this movie don't bark or meow, they just had voice actor vetran Frank Welker doing it for them. Really? You couldn't get a dog or cat to do what they do best at all in this movie? It doesn't take much to get a pet to make sounds, even if it means taking their food away...just so long as it isn't Cujo or the cat from Tales From The Darkside: The Movie.
"Whoa! Two HUGE dogs doin' it!"
Everything else.
The special effects are quite impressive, especially the backyard, where everything is grown to gigantic porportions. It kinda reminded me of A Bug's Life, where you're transported to a whole different perspective. Another aspect of the special effects are the bugs. Though the scorpion was cluttered and hard to look at, the other insects, like the ant, were very well constructed and appealing to look at without being repulsed.
I also enjoyed the opening animated sequence created by Kroyer Films (Ferngully). It reminded me of those Log commercials from Ren & Stimpy. All films should have an animated sequence! Yes, even The Room.
"Take THIS, The Flintstones!"
The humour is good-natured and doesn't involve anything like you'd see in kids films nowadays. No poop jokes, no fart jokes, no pratfalls, nothing like that. We get cute one-liners, likable characters, and typical crappy romantic development that's about as intense as drinking water.
"Uh-oh. I'm allergic to kids. I'm gonna sneeze..."
"Excellent! My plan to destroy broccoli is almost complete!"
Not the greatest movie ever, but's it's harmless and entertaining enough. Likable humour and characters, great story, all the ingredients that should be in any kid films nowadays. Just beware the bug close-ups. Uggh...
See ya! More Halloween action along the way...

Oyster knows what travelers look for in their all-inclusive hotels. When we visit properties around the world, we evaluate how every feature stacks up against the competition, from the rooms to the pools to the restaurants. So if you're planning a trip and need a place to start, you've come to the right place. Take a look at our top all-inclusive hotel picks in Puerto Vallarta, and get inspired!
This luxurious, 267-room all-inclusive resort in Nuevo Vallarta is a sophisticated and serene option in the greater Puerto Vallarta area. Every room here is a suite, offering extra living space, a balcony, ocean views, and luxurious touches such as Nespresso machines. The impressive features include an infinity pool with three levels overlooks the beach, a decadent spa with 20 treatment rooms, and four upscale (and pricey) restaurants. There's little wrong with it, except for the fee for Wi-Fi.
A half-hour drive from downtown Puerto Vallarta and a half-mile from the beach, the Marival Residences & World Spa is the place to go for laid-back luxury, residential-style suites, modern amenities, and an impressive array of all-inclusive features. Comprised of 169 suites, penthouses, or private villas, ranging from one to four bedrooms (and all featuring spacious terraces with garden, pool, or ocean views), Marival Residences is an excellent option for families and couples alike seeking a little sun-soaked spoiling.
There are neighborhoods in Puerto Vallarta that feel like Palm Springs or Beverly Hills, and the all-inclusive Casa Velas inhabits one of them. Lush, manicured gardens and streets, high-priced, terra cotta tile-roofed houses and condos, and the green grass of a well-tended golf course define the locale. The 80-room adults-only hotel is perfectly situated amidst this quiet luxury. With a gated entry, a friendly, (mostly) bilingual staff, and gorgeous public spaces and rooms that more than meet the challenge posed by the posh ambience, Casa Velas is a great pick for those who like it luxe but informal.
Booking a room at an all-inclusive in Nuevo Vallarta -- the high-end "suburb" north of Puerto Vallarta -- can be hit or miss, given the dozens of properties to choose from here. The beachfront Vallarta Palace is a hit for most. Some might find the minimalist architecture of this 348-guestroom hotel a little too stripped down, particularly in the vast atrium lobby. But beyond that empty, soaring space are lush gardens, inviting pools, and elegant restaurants offering a range of cuisines. Rooms are on the small side, but feature luxe details like double Jacuzzis.
The Dreams is a solid all-inclusive resort, with a sleek, ultra-modern design, several restaurants --including an outstanding rooftop sushi and cocktail bar--, a spa, multiple pools, and a stretch of beach. The rooms here are attractive -- cool, with hip furniture, freestanding deep bathtubs, and Jacuzzis on private decks. But you have to specify you want an ocean view, or you may be looking at the mountains (which isn't necessarily a bad thing).
Secrets Vallarta Bay is a luxurious, adult-only, all-inclusive resort right on the beach in tourist-friendly Puerto Vallarta. With 271 suites, it's not the biggest resort around -- the smaller size means less of a wait and better service. This property does a lot of things right: luxe rooms with butler service, unlimited premium alcohol, and gorgeous pools -- however, the vibe can get rowdy (blame the combination of all-inclusive booze and a swim-up bar). Guests should also note that some of the restaurants and daily entertainment are next door at the family-friendly Now Amber Puerto Vallarta. Still, Secrets is a quick drive to the airport and downtown, making it a convenient spot for an upscale couples getaway on the beach.
The 327-room Now Amber Puerto Vallarta is a family-friendly, four-and-half-pearl oceanfront property. The location is right on the beach and 15 minutes from the airport and downtown Puerto Vallarta. Seven restaurants and bars are all-inclusive, including premium alcohol. All of the spacious, sleek rooms are suites with private balconies. There's a huge spa, gorgeous pools, and separate clubs for kids and teens. The hotel doesn't nickel-and-dime guests with extra charges: everything from parking to Wi-Fi to towels and minibars are included. Note that some of the hotel's facilities (a few restaurants and the spa) are actually located next door at the sister property, Secrets.
Open only to guests ages 16 and older, Villa Premiere offers the best of two Puerto Vallarta worlds: it's both beachfront all-inclusive and urban boutique. One of the few beaches near town -- Playa Camarones -- is directly in front of the hotel, and downtown Puerto Vallarta is just seven blocks away. Even with its small size, the 89-room Villa has an attractive all-inclusive package -- a compact but still luxurious version of what you get at many of the mega-sized resorts several miles north, out of town. An added bonus: it's a pretty little place with whimsical artworkthroughout.
The 495-room Marival mega-resort takes the "all" in all-inclusive seriously. Just about every imaginable recreational activity is available here -- along with the usual pools, kayaks and endless beverages, this hotel has bicycles, a climbing tower, mini-golf, a basketball court, catamarans, beach volleyball, cooking and Spanish lessons, and more. There are multiple dining options, rooms ranging from standard guest rooms up to three-bedroom suites, and more than 900 feet of Nuevo Vallarta beachfront that stretches for miles in both directions. Some rooms in the older buildings of the property, though, are in definite need of an update. And the property itself feels less luxurious (though is more affordable) than its sister property, Marival Residences, just a half mile away.
Velas Vallarta Suite Resort was likely one of the finest in Vallarta a couple of years ago, and no doubt, if management continues to put time and money into the ongoing upgrade, this all-inclusive resort will be top-notch again soon. The gardens and grounds are still charming, the pools (with a lazy river) and recreational options are excellent, and the restaurants are hitting on all cylinders. However, the suites are not quite up to modern-day snuff (drab furnishings and old tube TVs are standard). Upgraded rooms, though, feature flat-screen TVs and nicer furnishings -- while most rooms (renovated or not) feature stunning ocean views. The price is a bit high considering the needed upgrades -- for nicer rooms and similar amenities in the Marina area, consider lower-priced Melia Puerto Vallarta.
The Spanish hotel company Riu offers three classes of all-inclusive (there's one of each in Nuevo Vallarta), and the 700-room Jalisco is the economy option -- but you wouldn't guess that upon entry. The entry and lobby are grand, and the grounds are immaculate, with two sprawling pools, beautiful garden areas, and a large, pristine beach. The rooms, however, are small, lackluster, and short on amenities. There are plenty of restaurants, which is a bonus on any all-inclusive plan, plus a handful of fun bars (including a swim-up pool bar), and even a nightclub. The property is far removed from the hustle and bustle of downtown Puerto Vallarta, but it remains an excellent option for a beautiful all-inclusive beach getaway.

It's time to stop the foot dragging.
Now, the question is, how.
A simple, clean cutover from earlier coding systems to ICD-10 may not be possible.
"I don't think there's a perfect solution out there, but I think that payers being ready first may make the most sense," says Janice Jacobs, director of regulatory affairs at IMA Consulting, a national independent healthcare management consulting firm working with more than 700 hospitals and health systems throughout the U.S.
And yet, CMS was mute on this suggestion, which was promoted by the Medical Group Management Association among others. So the payers and the health plans get just as long as the providers to get their ICD-10 coding systems up and running. (Aetna, for one, has pledged to be fully ready to process ICD-10 claims by October 1, 2014.)

A beauty, the opaque dense purple-colored 1995 exhibits jammy cassis, vanillin, and minerals in its fragrant but still youthful aromatics. Medium to full-bodied, with exceptional purity, superb concentration, and a long, intense, ripe, 40-second finish, this is a magnificent example of Latour. As the wine sat in the glass, scents of roasted espresso and toasty new oak emerged. This classic will require considerable cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2050.
Deep ruby-red color. More expressive aromas of crystallized dark berries, dark chocolate and animal fur. Lush and sweet; thick but delineated. Wonderfully concentrated. This, too, seems rather withdrawn today, but the strength of material is clear to see. Finishes with firm tannins and explosive fruit that goes on and on. (94+?)
Black licorice, cedar, cigar box and fresh herbs. Full-bodied and very structured, with firm, silky tannins and a long finish. Needs time. (Web-2000)
Lustrous deep crimson almost right out to the rim still. Hint of mint on the nose – quite aromatic. Pretty. Charming for a Latour grand vin! Though there is a strong undertow of graphite. More intense than 1996. Drink 2013-2035. (18.5/20 points)
Lisa Perrotti-Brown writes: "Deep garnet-brick in color, the nose is well developed, displaying dried berry, leather, vanilla pod and anise notes with a faint whiff of potpourri. The palate is wonderfully fleshy and opulent with velvety, approachable tannins and a long finish." 96 points

Published in the year 2012, Housefull: The Golden Age Of Hindi Cinema is a collection of short essays that document some of the groundbreaking film releases during the 1950s and 60s.
Summary Of The Book
Housefull: The Golden Age of Hindi Cinema is a collection of short essays that provide insights into the best films in Hindi Cinema during the 1950s and 60s. This book starts off with a foreword by Mahesh Bhatt, followed by a brief introduction by Salam. The readers are provided with little-known facts on the lives of actors, directors, composers, lyricists, and producers during this golden age.
This book has been divided into 11 parts, most of which examine the lives of some of the greatest directors during the 50s and 60s, which include Guru Dutt, Bimal Roy, B. R. Chopra, Shakti Samanta, Raj Kapoor, Mehboob Khan, V. Shantaram and the Anands. There is a rather incongruous portion placed between these sections, called Period Films (1952-1960). Each section starts off with a brief introduction by a renowned figure in the Hindi film industry, followed by a series of write-ups on films. Only landmark films by a particular director have been included. An example of this is Bimal Roy, whose hit movies such as Devdas, Madhumati, Sujata, Bandini, and Do Bigha Zameen have been added in this book.
Each essay begins with some brief information about the movie, such as the director, writers, lyricist, lead actors, and the cinematographer, which is followed by the movie's synopsis. Additionally, the readers are given insights into how a particular movie came into being as well as behind-the-scenes stories sans any gossip. The writer of that particular section then gives their take on where the movie scores and what contributed to its success.
This book consists of contributions from some of the most renowned figures such as Vijay Lokapally, Anuj Kumar, and Suresh Kohli. This book takes the readers back in time, when the eminent Mangeshkar sisters sang together and the time Gulzar was prevented from singing his own song. Housefull: The Golden Age of Hindi Cinema helps the readers understand how Indian cinematic history has evolved from films such as Mughal-e-Azam and Sholay, to Tare Zameen Par and Lagaan.

Housefull: the Golden Age of HIndi CinemaThe title is very appropriate for this book as the book covers a lot of films which form the golden chapter of our cinema. It talks of films like Mughal e Azam, Do Bigah Zamin, Devdas and Nagin etc. They were all milestone films. The author has done full justice to the title and provided good informations and intersting side stories. The writing style is easy and the presentation of the book very eye catching. Mr Mahesh Bhatt's introduction also reads very well. But I wish there was a chapter on a film like Junglee in it. And also on Meena Kumari's Pakizah and Guru Dutt's Aar Paar. But is a go… (Expand)

A melting pot of different opinionsMr Abdul Razzak has probably not read the book. otherwise, he would not have said that except Ziya other writers are mediocre or that Ziya has done very little writing. People like Mahesh Bhatt and Gulzar have written some piece. Ziya also has done around 30 pieces. How is that for contribution? Housefull is a good melting pot of different opinions and thoughts. Good cover, good photos and good reviews.

HousefullIt is a beautifully written book and completely different from the gossipy trash that is often called film writing in India. The book has a sober tone and the films chosen are among the best of Hindi cinema. Though some of the reviews in the book are better than others but overall, there is a certain quality and honesty in each criticism/appreciation. Though Zia Us Salam has not done all the chapters, still as somebody who has read him for many years, his style is apparent in all chapters. Particularly, the introductiion is beautiful.

Taking readers for a rideI bought the book assuming that Ziya Us Salam might have written most of the stuff but badly disappointed. He edited the book and compiled the stuff from different and medicore writers. He and Bhavna Somaiya are good film critics from The Hindu.

Company to pay $81,000 in restitution to Vt. customersDecember 11,2012MONTPELIER - The state Department of Financial Regulation announced Tuesday that The Hartford Financial Services Group will pay more than $81,000 in restitution to Vermont customers whose auto insurance claims were not evaluated properly.
An investigation by the department determined that The Hartford had inaccurately calculated the value of total vehicle losses for 77 claims between January 2009 and September 2011. In response, The Hartford has agreed to implement new policies and procedures as well as mandatory training for all employees who handle Vermont claims.
Commissioner Steve Kimbell said he was pleased with the corrective actions the company agreed to take.

What i actually enjoy is watching replays only, how ppl die in my castle made in the same schema. I enjoy this only because i invented my castle by myself, and this is not a random that it looks almost the same as other castles - its just one of the best setups right now, I have 900 crowns and feel fine with that.
But genereally, I dont attack almost at all because:
1. On my level i can attack only few levels higher castles with similar rank to get at least a deal: 27 for win 13 for lose because even if i loose i have 15 minutes to get all back (two stars)
2. Castles on my level are not enjoyable at all (but challenging, that is big +)
3. I dont need gold or lifeforce, as I upgraded everything possible on 24 castle level and I am not going to level this up, because on 26 level I will become easy target for top players or just 30 lvl average players. For all gold I get from mines I buy potions just in case
4. And chicken farms are boring as hell and i couldnt even use any macro and go sleep -.-

The shooting action is average at best, and the game as a whole is riddled with problems. The fact that it's one of the higher-priced Xbox Live Arcade titles available is somewhat comedic – unless you've actually paid out for it, that is.

Slow-Cooked Pork Burritos Recipe
I have been making this recipe for 20 years, changing it here and there until this delicious version is now what I serve. It's a favorite for company and family alike. —Sharon Belmont, Lincoln, Nebraska
- 1 boneless pork sirloin roast (3 pounds)
- 1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1 envelope reduced-sodium taco seasoning
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
- 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
- 14 flour tortillas (8 inches), warmed
- Optional toppings: shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, chopped green pepper, guacamole, reduced-fat sour cream and shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
- 1. Cut roast in half; place in a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker. In a small bowl, mix broth, taco seasoning, parsley, garlic, pepper and salt; pour over roast. Cook, covered, on low 8-10 hours or until meat is very tender.
- 2. Remove pork from slow cooker; cool slightly. Shred meat with two forks. Skim fat from cooking juices. Return cooking juices and pork to slow cooker. Stir in beans and chilies; heat through.
- 3. Spoon 1/2 cup pork mixture across center of each tortilla; add toppings as desired. Fold bottom and sides of tortilla over filling and roll up.
- 4. To freeze burritos: Roll up burritos without toppings. Wrap individually in paper towels, then foil. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag. May be frozen for up to 2 months. To use frozen burritos, remove foil. Place paper towel-wrapped burritos on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high for 3-4 minutes or until heated through. Serve with toppings as desired. Yield: 14 servings.
