Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 833 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by wayne58 Handicapped Bathroom. Was put into a room with a disabled compatible bathroom. While I applaud having these facilities, the room was very poorly designed. the shower curtain was set to the standard height as if a bathtub were installed and the floor actually sloped away from the wall less shower resulting in water one half inch deep in the entire bathroom. Had to use every single towel to try and get a dry spot to stand in. The shower rod should be placed lower in these rooms to enable the curtain to reach the floor. Furthermore, the management should try using these rooms to assure that it is actually usable! February 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cher1 dog friendly Loved the dog bed. However no dog dish was left in room. I had to ask for the dog bed as well, even though they knew we had it on our reservation. Our dog loved the bed! We're a gold member, but didn't get an upgrade!! I asked on our way out if the room was, and they said it wasn't. It was still a nice room. February 7, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by rlaiii This hotel is close to Vegas Strip This hotel is convienent to the Las Vegas strip. Friendly and helpful staff. February 5, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Verified Reviewer Adequate Hotel, Nothing to Brag About This hotel is modest and adequate. Doesn't have anything fancy. The hotel's casino is very small, but the location of the hotel is pretty close to some of the famous hotels and casinos in Las Vegas. February 5, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jm07 Friendly Staff and very comfortable room. Consistent with Weston standards, this hotel is comfortable quiet and it met my expectations. February 5, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Michelle Nice My room was comfortable. This was the second time though, that my refrigerator was not working and it was not replaced. I am also concerned about which floors the pets stay on. I would prefer not to be on those floors. February 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chisno Super Bowl weekend My fiancé and I just stayed at this hotel over Super Bowl weekend, And we could not have been happier with our stay. All of the staff was more than accommodating and fulfilling of all of our requests. In addition, the overall politeness of the staff could not go unnoticed either. Everyone was super friendly and always offering good advice. I especially enjoyed the nice touch where the manager actually left his personal cell phone number at the front desk should you have a need to follow up with him immediately February 4, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by Leslee21 front desk staff I travel for a living so stay at a lot of different hotels. The front desk staff you have at this hotel is exceptional! They are ALWAYS so friendly & helpful it's truly a pleasure checking in at your hotel. I have also stayed here while not on a business trip & I still receive the same great service & feel welcome as a guest. I am always confident that I will be getting a nice, clean & comfortable room.

Rated 4 out of 5 by benm The hotel is clean. The Hotel Staff is very professional, and the hotel is very clean. January 28, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Lilly Comfortable stay just off the Las Vegas strip Our room was small but very comfortable for two people. All hotel personnel we had contact with were extremely pleasant and the call to the room after check-in to make sure all our needs were met was appreciated. Nice amenities and clean room. Turn-down service was a nice plus. Room furnishings could use updating but again met our needs. Lunch at Suede restaurant was very good, but service was pretty slow for mid afternoon on a week day. January 27, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Michelle The staff has treated us well The staff is always pleasant. They are willing to help and solve any problem that arises. January 27, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by debbieg Love staying at this hotel! This hotel is nice and close to the Strip without having to go through a huge casino and lobby. The staff is amazing and very accommodating on everything from check-in to check-out. Loved Rick M., Julie P. and Michael V. Just need a couple of more ellipticals in the Fitness Center. January 27, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Thaddeus Dissapointing stay Because I was staying midweek at this property I figured I had a good chance for a suite upgrade with my Platinum status. I was told that they were all sold out, and very disappointed in the morning to see newspapers in front of all the doors on the floor EXCEPT the suites. We were also told that there would be a continental breakfast set up on the 17th floor, which unfortunately was incorrect information. The front desk was nice enough to provide a credit for $10 at the lobby Starbucks. The rooms are very small by Las Vegas standards, but the lack of a very loud casino was quite nice. Pros: helpful front desk, location, free parking. Cons: lack of upgrades while obviously available, small rooms, resort fee ($12 I think). The front desk told me the resort charge was non negotiable and that it was less than any strip hotels, and covered bottled water and newspapers which should all be provided to Plats for no charge as well. Ironic, since I stayed the next night at a nicer strip hotel for half the price and no resort fee. We also never got the water hot enough to take a shower. It was lukewarm and very uncomfortable. Skip this very mediocre property when in Vegas, as it is not near as nice as even the cheap strip hotels. Love the Starwood, but NOT this property. January 25, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Toady Not a good Vegas Hotel This is a very tired Westin property. Off the strip, brown drab and not classy. The only good thing in the room is the traditional Westin Bed. I pass and stay at one of the classy strip hotels January 25, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chevere22 Peaceful! You can rest like a log! Beds are heavenly! Starbuck's coffee is available right in your room! January 25, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Dasu40 This hotel has great features I love this hotel . It's centrally located and very calm. A good spot for families January 24, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Bulldoglowell SPG membership While the hotel is not quite upto Westin stndards (I have run into a few in the last year) it offers a decent room, just off the strip at a reasonable rate and is the only offering in the SPG participating hotels near the strip. I like that I didn't have to walk a mile from the front door to check in and then another mile to the lifts and the last mile to the room from the lifts. Room was clean and I liked that I could have the hotel skip servicing the room (I was there two nights) and earn 500 more points. January 24, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Melmel Needs remodel I recently stayed here last minute because of a mix up at another hotel. I was not expecting such old rooms!! The bed was great but the rest of the room needs some cheering up. The shelf in the shower was rusting and the fixtures were old. I was surprised that the hotel was just 10 years old. Returning to the area again next month and really trying to avoid this hotel again. Not what I expected of a Westin hotel by Starwood. January 23, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by KAC41 This hotel is fine in a pinch I was disappointed with my stay. My room was worn. The wall paper coming off of the walls, the toilet paper holder coming away from the wall. My telephone didnt work. I had a hard time getting service from the front desk and I never talked to the same person twice about my needs. Suade told me they were too busy to serve me carry out food on my first challenging night at the hotel. The lobby, casino, bar tenders, waitressing staff, public restrooms, premises, front door peoples, beds, and conference amenities were good. I did enjoy the happy hour one evening. But all in all, I found the room service to be very expensive. The hotel was about 2 blocks from the strip and as a single woman I wouldnt walk there alone. Fortunately, I met some nice people and we ventured out together. Unfortunately, adding salt to my wounds, after recieving my bill and checking out, my credit card was charged extra charges...and Im waiting to have that money credited to my account. I have been to Vegas 4 times and this was my least favorite spot to stay. But the bed was awesome. I just didnt get the customer service that I enjoy on my trips. January 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ATopete82 Herbalife Event Successful! My hats off to Craig, Jose and Francisco for going above and beyond to make sure our group was properly accommodated. All of our guests left the event pleased. Thank you! January 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by anon problems with door jam I stayed in 1463. teh door seemed hard to close and required an extra hard tug to firmly close it so that it locks. In one instance such as required strong pull jiggled the door frame such that the securtity latch engaged after the closed door. fortunately there was someone in the room who was able to open the latch and allow entry. This should be checked. January 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Charlie This hotel has amazing people that work for them Steve checked us in and what a personable guy. He was polite, welcoming and warm. Made you feel as if you were checking in at home. He sent up a complimentary cheese plate because it was my mom's birthday and it was a brilliant snack after a long day. January 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sherry23 The Westin Las Vegas I visited Las Vegas with my small dogs and a car full of luggage. Getting into my room has never been easier. I even asked to switch to another room further from the elevators hoping to decrease the chance of my dogs barking at people walking by. I was in my room, and transferred to the second room, car parked, and room service on it's way effortlessly. Staff was always extremely helpful and accommodating. Everyone was nice to my dogs, too. The hotel was right next to the Flamingo, too. I didn't expect it to be as close as it was to the strip. The room service food was excellent. I didn't have a chance to look at the pool, spa, or fitness center. January 21, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by BKR22 Rooms good, amenities not so nice early check-in request not met. Was not called when room was ready. Food outrageously expense - breakfast buffet $18 !!! Room very nice & clean. Having to pay for Wi-Fi an insult - this should be included as is in all other cities! January 21, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Lindsaust11 Bad Bathroom The shower needs fixing in room 748. The drain barely stays up and the shower/bath switch basically needed the hulk to pull it up. I took a shower in ankle deep water. January 19, 2013

There's long been rumors that Daryl Dixon on "The Walking Dead" might be gay, based on the facts that he seems to have a significant disinterest in women and that he's had no romantic plotlines whatsoever over the show's first four seasons. Now "Dead" creator Robert Kirkland has officially responded to those rumors:
"All I can say is that it's been discussed," he said. "We have very specific ideas about Daryl's sexuality (or the seeming lack thereof), and if there's ever a quiet period in the show where he's not consistently distracted by crossbowing… we'll tackle it in the show."

This Article Covers
Security software company Symantec has announced record revenue and earnings figures for its second quarter, citing "numerous threat outbreaks during the quarter".
It recorded revenue of $429m for the quarter and income of $83m, compared with income of $52m and revenue of $325m in the same quarter last year.
Strong growth in Symantec's enterprise security business and an rise in demand for its line of consumer products, such as Norton AntiVirus, fuelled the growth.
Symantec did not break out revenue based on its various businesses in the financial statement, but it said revenue from the enterprise security products business grew 25% over the same quarter last year to account for 41% of its overall revenue.
Revenue from the sale of its consumer products grew by 56% over the same quarter last year to account for 45% of the company's overall revenue.
Revenue from enterprise services grew by 53% to account for 2% of total revenue.
August was one of the busiest months ever for antivirus software companies. Symantec recorded four major worm outbreaks during the month, including the Blaster and Sobig worms, which infected hundreds of thousands of internet users worldwide and flooded corporate networks with attack traffic.

AIKEN COUNTY, S.C. (WRDW) -- News 12 has learned the runway at Twin Lakes Air Park has officially been closed down.
The S-17 Owners Association, the owners of the runway, failed to get the proper permits when they repaved the runway in 2006.
When county officials found out about it this past summer, they issued a fine of a thousand dollars per day until the owners could get the runway to meet engineering standards.
In October of 2011, the owners accepted a plea deal that included closing the runway.
Many of those who live nearby make their living in aviation.

In 134 major peripheral emboli involving 160 limbs in 114 patients, the limb survival rate was 85% and the hospital mortality rate was 30%. Embolectomy was performed for all nongangrenous limbs (82) with persistently severe ischemia. Limb survival was 92% when embolectomy was done within the first 12 hours (after embolism), 82% in the 12-to 48-hour period, and 70% in the 2- to 7-day period. Mitral commissurotomy and auricular appendectomy were performed on 24 patients with peripheral embolism; except for four emboli during commissurotomy, no further embolization and only one death have occurred. In the absence of gangrene, prompt embolectomy should be performed on limbs which show persistent signs of severe ischemia resistant to conservative therapy. If intensive medical and surgical attack does not eliminate the source of the embolus, long-term anticoagulation therapy is indicated.

Dangling bits in front add a romantic touch to Lauren Conrad's elegant, center-parted updo.
Styling Tip
Step 1: Distribute a dollop of mousse onto damp hair. Using a round brush, blow-dry in two-inch sections.
Step 2: Spritz the lower part of a two-inch section with styling spray and wrap loosely around a large curling iron. Hold in place for a few seconds to set the curl. Release and repeat all over, directing curls away from your face.
Step 3: Leave a few bits out and then sweep your length back. Start at the ends and roll your hair up. Pin the roll into place at your neck and mist with hairspray to finish.


text: Steven Levy: Twitter bots will pass the Turing test Social Networking 01 August 11 by Steven Levy This article was taken from the September 2011 issue of Wired magazine. Be the first to read Wired's articles in print before they're posted online, and get your hands on loads of additional content by subscribing online.My tweets generally reflect a set of parochial interests that I often revisit: the shuffle function in iTunes, reviews of my book, and, of course, the latest tech news associated with my stories. That's not necessarily a bad thing: I imagine that those are subjects my followers are interested in, too. But the predictability led me to speculate how simple it might be to create a program that would do the tweeting. Then I wondered whether it might be possible for such a program to emulate all of my social-network activity.If such an autopilot were well implemented, it could analyse my output on Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare and use that data to understand my interests, the sort of things I like to recommend and the voice I use in those formats, continuously refining its ability to be my proxy. That way, if I went off the grid -- say, on a safari -- I could just let the bot take the wheel.Ideally, no one would realise this autopilot wasn't really me. If I happened to get trampled by a rhino, the program would keep going. When it came to my bot, death would have no dominion.Alan Turing's seminal 1950 paper Computing Machinery and Intelligence predicted that computers might someday become intelligent enough to pass as human and proposed a way to determine when that day arrived. The Turing test has since become the gold standard of artificial intelligence and the basis for an annual competition. But as Brian Christian portrays it in his new book, The Most Human Human ( Ideas Bank, 06.11), the test's stilted mechanics -- five minute dialogues between judges and "remotes", who are either people or computers -- bear little relation to how people interact in the wild. (Christian participated in the 2009 competition, garnering the most votes asserting that he was a person. As always, the computers fell short.)Wouldn't it be more interesting if the test for AI were whether a social autopilot could convincingly replace the multifaceted social-networking presence of an actual person? Victory would come when people failed to distinguish the bots from the humans in their social graphs -- the digital equivalent of The Crying Game.As the software improves, I suspect that bots might, in some ways, surpass our performance. In her book Alone Together, sociologist Sherry Turkle observes that our personas on social networks are already fake -- they're not so much who we are as idealised projections of who we want to be. Computers are free of the ego and pretence that cloud things for us. Once they get the basics right, social bots could prove to be more authentically fake than we are.

Is there such a thing as growing pains
"'Growing pains' may be a misnomer because there's no evidence that the process of bone lengthening is painful. However, while bones are still growing, children are very active and hard on their musculoskeletal systems. Muscle pain at night from overuse during the day is common and likely explains so-called 'growing pains,'" says Frank Harrell, MD, who practices family medicine with Baptist Medical Associates.
"Growing pains" generally strike during two periods: in early childhood, among 3- to 5-year-olds, and later on, in 8- to 12-year-olds.
To help alleviate this pain:
- Massage the area
- Give your child ibuprofen (Advil,® Motrin,® others) or acetaminophen (Tylenol®)
"Occasional nighttime leg pain or discomfort in children is normal. But if it happens every night it may be due to restless legs syndrome (RLS), a condition in which your legs feel extremely uncomfortable while you're sitting or lying down. This can result in sleeping difficulties," Harrell explains.
RLS can occur at any age. Some simple lifestyle changes may help relieve symptoms of RLS. Treatment may also include medications.
If you're concerned about leg pain or discomfort that your child is experiencing, see his or her doctor.

Oil rises more than $1, tropical storm threatens supply
Brent climbs above $115/barrel, U.S. crude rises above $97; Oil supported by hopes of more stimulus measures by the Fed; Norwegian oil services workers break off wage talks
August 27, 2012 12:50 by Reuters
Oil futures rose more than a dollar on Monday, with Brent climbing above $115 per barrel, on supply worries as Tropical Storm Isaac threatened to interrupt most U.S. offshore oil production in the Gulf of Mexico.
Oil prices got a further shot in the arm from hopes of more U.S. stimulus measures, which would boost the outlook for demand from the world's top consumer of oil.
Brent crude futures rose $1.31 to $114.90 a barrel by 0437 GMT, after rising to a high of $115.50 earlier in the session. U.S. crude was up $1.06 to $97.21.
"The storm will have a temporary impact on prices. But everyone is waiting for the European Central Bank and U.S. Federal Reserve meetings ahead," said Tony Nunan, a risk manager at Mitsubishi Corp in Tokyo.
"Technically, Brent has been strong, so it looks like it's continuing that trend after the temporary blip on Friday and simply reversing the falls."
Oil prices fell on Friday after a report that the International Energy Agency is likely to tap strategic oil reserves as soon as September, dropping its resistance to a U.S.-led plan.
But prices are now turning upwards ahead of the annual U.S. Jackson Hole meeting of central bankers and economists later this week, where Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke will deliver a speech that will be scoured for clues on a third round of quantitative easing.
The markets will also look for policy signals from the euro zone ahead of a Sept. 6 meeting of the European Central Bank.
"The markets are now getting excited on the possibility of additional monetary stimulus by the Federal Reserve," said Ben Le Brun, a Sydney-based market analyst at OptionsXpress.
"I don't think traders will want to be caught short ahead of the Jackson Hole meeting especially when there's an upside risk."
Oil prices drew support from the threat to U.S. offshore oil production in the Gulf of Mexico from the Tropical Storm Isaac — which is expected to strengthen to a Category 2 hurricane and hit the Gulf Coast somewhere between Florida and Louisiana at midweek..
Meteorologists at Weather Insight, an arm of Thomson Reuters, predict the storm will spur short-term shutdowns of 85 percent of the U.S. offshore oil production capacity and 68 percent of the natural gas output.
The Gulf of Mexico accounts for about 23 percent of U.S. oil production and 7 percent of natural gas output, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
About 30 percent of U.S. natural gas processing plant capacity and 44 percent of the country's refining capacity also line the Gulf Coast, the EIA said.
There are other supply worries as well.
Delays in Iraq's pipeline construction threaten to stall production at Royal Dutch Shell's Majnoon oilfield for at least three months, forcing the field to miss a 2012 target of 175,000 barrels per day.
In Norway, oil services workers broke off wage talks with oil companies on Friday, taking the sector a step closer to its second strike within two months.
Norway's vital oil sector was hamstrung last month when production workers held a 16-day strike over pay and the right to early retirement, driving up oil prices.
An upcoming maintenance-related drop in North Sea output and ongoing Middle East turmoil also underpinned Brent prices.
Britain's largest oilfield, Buzzard, which is the single biggest contributor to the Forties crude oil stream and usually sets the price of the Brent benchmark, will shut next month, suspending output until mid-October.
Adding to Middle East uncertainties, Iran's foreign minister urged delegates at a Non-Aligned Movement developing nations summit on Sunday to oppose sanctions imposed by the West on the Islamic Republic to punish it for its nuclear activities.

The Chargers wanted one last look at Lane Johnson.
On Friday, they got it.
After their team plane was spotted in Norman, Okla., offensive coordinator Ken Whisenhunt and offensive line coach Joe D'Alessandris were among the team personnel seen on the Oklahoma campus with the former Sooners left tackle. It is the final homework assignment on Johnson, a logical Chargers target on April 25 during the draft's first round.
Johnson, at 6-feet-6 and 310 pounds, has impressed in every phase of the pre-draft process.
The ex-junior college quarterback followed up a strong Senior Bowl with the kind of measurables at the NFL Combine that hint to a high-upside development yet to come.
While Luke Joeckel and Eric Fisher are often discussed as the top tackles in the draft, there has been a growing sentiment among draft analysts that Johnson, coming off only two college seasons at tackle and one at left, could develop into the best pro of the three.
Left tackle is arguably the Chargers' greatest need.
If they wait until they're on the clock at pick 11, there is no guarantee Johnson will be there.
General Manager Tom Telesco could trade up to secure him, but given the number of holes on the roster, the cost of losing draft selections is not thought of lightly.
A veteran free agent such as Bryant McKinnie or Max Starks is a post-draft option should San Diego not address its left tackle need during the draft.
Line of visitors
The Chargers can host up to 30 out-of-area players for a pre-draft visit.
Naturally, their list includes some offensive linemen.
Former Alabama guard Chance Warmack, a projected first-round pick, and Virginia Tech tackle Vinston Painter, a middle-rounder, were among this month's visitors, sources said Friday.
Warmack and North Carolina's Jonathan Cooper are potential guard options for the Chargers with the No. 11 choice. A guard has not been taken in the top 10 since the Saints took Chris Naeole 10th overall in 1997.
Warmack made 39 starts at left guard over a productive college career.
For Painter, a 6-foot-6, 305-pound right tackle, the game tape is more limited. He started 13 games as a senior after serving mostly as a reserve guard as an underclassman.
Too much, of course, can be made of a visit. The fact Warmack toured Murphy Canyon doesn't mean he is any closer to becoming a Charger, just as a guard without a Chargers visit, such as Kentucky's Larry Warford, is not any further.

And maybe a salvation for contemporary musicals?
One of the most incredible sequences in "Inception" is the hotel hallway fight, in which Joseph Gordon-Levitt battles some bad guys while they all deal with shifts in gravity and balance. If you haven't yet seen the film, it's not important here to know why this happens narratively. As for how it's done, this is only of basic concern as far as how it recalls previous films that employed similar in-camera effects, specifically "2001: A Space Odyssey" and the Fred Astaire musical "Royal Wedding." The former is only relevant in that the "Inception" sequence deals with zero-gravity weightlessness. The latter is more important because the iconic "You're All the World to Me" number is more visually similar to the scene in the new film and therefore associates the fight sequence with dance.
Gordon-Levitt is quickly becoming a kind of gateway to classic musicals, it seems. When he hosted "Saturday Night Live" last fall, he perfectly reenacted Donald O'Connor's "Make 'Em Laugh" number from "Singin' in the Rain." Before that he delighted audiences with a grand song and dance sequence set to Hall & Oates in "(500) Days of Summer." He also recently told The Advocate that he may have something musical in the works but he wasn't ready to say just yet. Whatever it is, I hope that it's as much a physical treat as an audio one. And hopefully the songs are written by him -- check out JGL performing one of his own tunes during a Rolling Stone interview here.
As much as I enjoyed that fight sequence in "Inception," though, I have to say that it reminded me of a problem with both fight and dance sequences in modern movies. There was just way too much close-up and way too much cutting. Nolan continually has an issue with his inability to open up the scope of his action sequences, just as most directors of modern film musicals have a problem doing the same with dance scenes. From what I saw with Gordon-Levitt's live dancing on "SNL," I think he could have done the fight in one take, as Astaire did with the famous wall and ceiling dance in "Royal Wedding." Of course, the sequence in "Inception" entailed faster action and also had to be intercut with other scenes for pacing and narrative tension. Something as slow as the Astaire number would have brought "Inception" the an even worse halt than some of the exposition scenes did.
Nevertheless there is something very wrong about cutting so much during a dance number, or even a well-choreographed action sequence. Not only is it jarring but especially in the case of dancing it takes away from the trust that the dancer is really dancing. I guess these days audiences are less interested in the spectacle of dance as people were many decades ago, and also modern musicals are likely to cast a star who's less talented a dancer, so some of the cutting is likely necessary to cover up inefficiency or in some circumstances a stunt dancer. I can't imagine what Astaire would have thought about a movie like "Nine," which never allows us to actually just watch the dance. They end up being more an accomplishment of editing than choreography.
In a number of interviews, Gordon-Levitt has made an analogy about the relationship between the "Inception" fight and Astaire's dance in "Royal Wedding' comparing it to the difference between "Sesame Street" and "Star Wars," both of which featured Muppets, only to different effect. I don't know which is supposed to be which (I think "Inception" is supposed to be "Star Wars"), but either way, I'd like Gordon-Levitt to realize that as far as I can tell he's potentially got the footwork down so that instead of just being a gateway to classic musicals he might also be able to fix this issue many of us musical fans have with the current standard.
Here's the "You're All the World to Me" number from "Royal Wedding":


text: Randy Orton is awesome.... Jan 29, 2010 6:51:24 GMT -5 Quote Select PostDeselect PostLink to PostBack to Top Post by shortdawg2 on Jan 29, 2010 6:51:24 GMT -5 I wasn't sure where to put this but it involved a couple of 1/1000's so here goes a quick story. I took my son to DC last night to meet Randy Orton at the DC auto show and get a couple of 1/1000's autographed. Well the session was supposed to start at 6 so we got there at about 430 and there was already about 500 people in front of us. Randy Orton was spending a lot of time addressing the fans even talked to people's friends and stuff on there phones. Well this was fine until about 750 ( The session was scheduled to end at 8) when security came and shut the line down about 10 people in front of me. I thought the crowd was getting ready to riot there was about 1000 people behind me by now. Thankfully Randy heard the commotion and went off on the securtiy guys and said he would stay until every one in line got there autograph. Granted they sped us through after that, no pics and no tiime for questions. My son was pretty upset about that because when he finds out we're going to these auto sessions he thinks for weeks for his perfect question. I explained to him that Randy Orton didn't have to stay for us and he is now my favorite wrestler. So kudos to Orton and thanks for reading my long rant here.

By LISA BRITTON
As dozens of Airstream trailers streamed into Baker City to celebrate the birthday of company founder Wally Byam, who was born in Baker City July 4, 1896, Dale "Pee Wee" Schwamborn stands in front of the case at the Baker Heritage Museum containing memorabilia that he donated for an exhibit about Byam. Schwamborn's mother, Helen Byam Schwamborn, was Byam's first cousin.
For the Baker City Herald
When asked what Wally Byam was like, Dale Schwamborn pushes "play" on his CD player.
A deep voice, perfect for radio, fills the room at the Baker Heritage Museum, a space dedicated this season to Byam's adventures with Airstream trailers.
Schwamborn's eyes tear up as he listens to the radio interview Byam gave during the 1950s.
"It's so hard to talk about that," he says of the question about Byam's personality.
Schwamborn is "Wally's cousin, once removed." (His mother, Helen Byam Schwamborn, was Wally's first cousin.)
Schwamborn is in Baker City for a rally of Airstream trailers, a gathering of the Wally Byam Caravan Club International that arrived here Friday.
Byam was born in Baker City on July 4, 1896. He helped design the Airstream trailer, and from 1951 until his death in 1962 led caravans of the iconic silver travel trailers around the world.
The Oregon Chapter of the WBCCI arrived Friday, and will leave Tuesday. About 160 Airstreams were expected.
To celebrate the rally, this year the museum featured Byam in the display "Caravanning and Collecting."
Schwamborn, who lives in Arizona, donated all the items in the exhibit.
"I had to have some place to give it," he said.
And he can tell tales about most of the memorabilia because he went along on those trips.
His first was also Byam's first, a four-month tour of Mexico in 1951.
"I was 12," Schwamborn said. "And I still have quite a few memories."
They went from El Paso, Texas, south to Nicaragua.
Schwamborn's mother began working for Byam in 1955, and she stayed with Airstream until she retired at age 75 in 1979.
Schwamborn also went on the European caravan in 1956 and the Africa trip in 1959.
From the Africa excursion, Schwamborn donated a pygmy spear. His story is this: To kill an elephant, the pygmies got underneath the massive beast and stuck the spear into its belly.
"Then they'd crawl inside and eat the entrails," he said.
On those caravans, some lasting as long as six months, the caravanners became friends.
He still remembers one family with three girls — the husband was a cranberry farmer, and he'd seen a story about Byam's Mexico trip.
"He went home and said 'We're getting an Airstream and going to Africa.' He sent his wife, kids, Airstream and tow vehicle to Africa, then joined them a month and a half later" after harvesting his crop, Schwamborn said.
"I just hate the idea of being a business man or running a big mill or anything like that. I don't know whether to make myself like that kind of life or become a beachcomber, as in the play.
"One way gives me success, renown and prestige, and the other gives me happiness. Which shall I choose?"
Byam died on July 22, 1962. (Schwamborn's mother died on July 22, 2004.)
Airstream owners still gather in Byam's honor, lining up trailers that sport their membership number in the WBCCI.
For the Baker City gathering, the owners of 20 vintage trailers set up camp in Geiser-Pollman Park.Debbie and Dave Hagen brought their renovated 1965 Trade Wind from Bremerton, Wash.
"We bought it in September, and gutted it to the shell," Debbie said. "We were into vintage trailers, and our daughter talked us into an Airstream."
It's not original inside — the Hagens changed the location of the bed and some other details, such as the cabinet styles.
They pull it with a 1965 Chevy Suburban, or "Carry-All."
The Hagens attend two to three big rallies a year.
"We go camping, mostly," Debbie said. "And we go camping year-round."
They can't, however, slip into towns unnoticed.
"You can't be in a hurry anywhere," she said. "If you don't like that, you shouldn't have a vintage trailer."
Roger and Bonnie Miller of Ephrata, Wash., pulled their 1965 Caravel Airstream to Baker with a 1933 Plymouth Coupe.
"Ours was wrecked and totally gutted," Bonnie said of the trailer.
Roger finished it about a year ago, and the exterior is so shiny it's almost blinding in the sun.
That shine takes work.
"Hours and hours and hours of polishing," Bonnie said, adding that Roger is "covered with black" when he's finished with the polish job.
But the reflection is one reason she likes Airstreams.
That, and the rounded corners.
"I'll show you the best part," she said, moving to one of those corners, where a fun house effect makes reflections tall and skinny.
"You stand here, you lose 15 pounds," she said with a smile.

WebHelpers / docs / history.rst
WebHelpers was originally created as a utility package for Pylons. Many of the helpers were ported from Ruby on Rails. Version 0.6 introduced the HTML tag builder and deprecated the rails helpers; new subpackages were added to replace the rails helpers. Version 1.0 builds on this with many additional helpers.
WebHelpers has been in a soft feature freeze since 1.0. Only bugfixes, small enhancements, and compatibility with new Pylons Project frameworks are likely to be accepted.

1 Big bucket (about 5 gallons) with lid
1 bar favorite soap
1/2 cup borax
1/2 cup washing soda (Arm and Hammer sells it, orange box, near powdered detergents in grocery store, it took me a while to find it at my store)
A soup pot
Lots of water
Cheese grater
Pour 4 gallons of warm water into 5 gallon bucket and set aside. Pour 4 cups of water into soup pot and start simmering. Grate your bar of soap into pieces and add to simmering water. Do not let it get to a rolling boil, it will make a mess. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes to let all the soap dissolve. Add 1/2 cup borax and 1/2 cup washing soda to 5 gallon bucket and stir. Pour in dissolved soap mixture into 5 gall bucket. Give it a good stir and pop the lid on. Tomorrow you'll have a snot looking homemade laundry detergent that costs like $.06 per load, and is earth friendly and it smells like your favorite soap. Use 1 cup per load. It should last like 3-6 months. Make sure to stir it every so often because the slime sinks to the bottom and makes the stuff on top less effective.

11/16/2011 — The fourth novel in the Twilight series, Breaking Dawn caused some controversy when it was first released. While some fans loved it a little too much others didn't care for it, and only hoped that the movie adaptation would improve on the shortcomings of the novel. But just as fans came around to loving Robert Pattinson as Edward, it seems like maybe fans have grown to love the novel that was initially off-putting mostly because it was so different from the rest of the series. After all, there are already more than 1,000 screenings of Breaking Dawn Part 1 sold out, so twi-hards can't be entirely apathetic.
While the other novels were focused on the love story and bits of action seemed to be thrown in, the fourth installment of the Twilight franchise had the traditional ending to a love story — a marriage — in the first couple of chapters. The love story was concluded so the focus of the novel shifted to a brutal pregnancy, a gory birth, a supernatural re-birth, and finally a showdown with individuals possessing X-men-like abilities. It turns out, though, that once Breaking Dawn is judged on its own merits rather than held up in comparison to its predecessors, it's just as good as the previous chapters in the Twilight Saga. Breaking Dawn works really well as a novel and we've compiled a list of reasons why. Will it work as well in a movie form? We have to wait until the 18th to find out, but it will be tricky.

Questions linger for family of bride found stabbed
Wednesday, May 16, 2012
CHICAGO (AP) — Hours after police found Estrella Carrera stabbed to death in her bathtub, still clad in the silver sequined cocktail dress she wore to celebrate her wedding to her on-and-off boyfriend, her family received a haunting phone call from the groom's sister.
Carrera's groom, Arnoldo Jimenez, had called his sister and tearfully told her he had left his bride bleeding after a "bad fight," Carrera's sister said Wednesday.
As a manhunt continues for Jimenez, who is charged with first-degree murder in Carrera's slaying, the new bride's family is searching for answers to what happened to the 26-year-old mother of two in the hours after she secretly got married at Chicago's City Hall.
Most of Carrera's family disapproved of her relationship with Jimenez, even though he was the father of her 2-year-old son.
Jimenez had hit and bruised Carrera in the past, according to an older sister, Jazmin Carrera, who talked to The Associated Press on Wednesday. Police also said family members reported incidents of violence while the couple was dating.
Jazmin Carrera described 6-foot, 220-pound Jimenez as "very possessive" and jealous, and doesn't understand why her sister married the 30-year-old Jimenez in what seemed like a rushed ceremony — or why she married him at all.
"That's the question everyone's asking themselves," Jazmin Carrera said.
She got a text message from her sister Friday, inviting her to join them and their friends at a Mexican restaurant and a nightclub to celebrate the nuptials. She didn't join the festivities.
"It was just all of a sudden," Jazmin Carrera said. "She didn't give us enough notice."
Family members became concerned when Estrella Carrera failed to pick up her two children Saturday as she'd arranged. They were unable to reach Carrera or Jimenez by cellphone, so they asked police to check on her well-being. That's when Carrera's body was found in a bathtub, still clothed in the dress she wore at the wedding reception. Police said she may have worn that dress at the marriage as well.
On Sunday, relatives heard from a sister of Jimenez that he had called that day, Jazmin Carrera told the AP.
"She said that he was crying and he was really nervous," she said. "He said they had a really bad fight and he had left her bleeding."
Jimenez hung up on his sister and wouldn't pick up when she called him back, Carrera said.
The phone call is the first detail to shed light on what evidence investigators may have given a judge to obtain the warrant. Police in the Chicago suburb of Burbank said they are aware of the account and are looking into it.
Police are pleading with Jimenez to turn himself in "for the sake of his family and especially his children," Capt. Joseph Ford of the Burbank Police Department told the AP. "I am sure they are very concerned for his well-being."
Ford said Jimenez was previously arrested for domestic violence in another city in a case that did not involve Carrera. Police don't know what Jimenez does for a living, although he was last known to be driving a black 2006 Maserati, an expensive car.
"We do not believe Jimenez is a danger to others, but we certainly do not know his mind frame at the present time," Ford told the AP.

P.E. Central Lesson Plan: Ridgerunner
Purpose of Activity:To motivate students to jog at the beginning of the class while learning about the Appalachian Trail. It is a nice way to integrate math into the curriculum as well.
Suggested Grade Level:6-12
Materials Needed:Map of the Appalachian Trail; gym or outside track; end of the week goal destination posters; a daily travel agent that will compute the class miles; calculator and a ruler to use to measure the scale and distant jogged on the map;
Lesson Plan:Description of Idea
The first week of the trimester we jog for three minutes and increase one minute per week for ten weeks. The last week of the trimester, students jogging for twelve minutes per day as a warm-up before their daily physical education activities. In order to motivate students we count each lap as one mile on the Appalachian Trail. Each class will take the sum of the miles per day and compute the class average. Once the daily class average is attained they will plot their progress on their class map. There is an end of the week goal destination (city, mountain, pass, etc.) about which students are able to learn basic facts and history. The class which travels farthest along the trail in ten weeks wins a prize (your choice).
Daily Class Procedure:
Students come to the gym and go to their respective locker rooms to change for physical education class. They are given 4 minutes to change and sit at their attendance spot on the gym floor. Attendance and checking if they changed for gym is taken at this time. The first student is designated the first travel agent. Every day there is a new travel agent. All students have the opportunity to be the travel agent at less twice during the trimester.
Duties of the Travel Agent:
They retrieve the miles traveled from the teacher and compute the class average on the itinerary sheet, which will give them the average mile per student to be plotted on the map. If the class reaches or passes a goal destination, the travel agent reads to the class that poster with information about that destination. They are responsible for plotting the miles on the map with a ruler using the map scale.

text: Our Team Comfort Udofa Current Appointment Secretary for the Neurodevelopmental and Behavioral Pediatrics clinic Overview Comfort Udofa has worked at the University of Rochester since 2006 and joined the Division of Neurodevelopmental and Behavioral Pediatrics in 2007. Roles and Responsibilities I answer phone calls for families and try to connect them to the correct person in our division and take messages for the nursing triage team. When families call our office to schedule an initial evaluation for their child, I enter their information into the electronic record and mail out the intake paperwork. In order to have a complete understanding of a family's concerns, we ask them to gather information from their medical doctor and school team which includes IEPs and any other testing. I also schedule follow up appointments for the doctors, nurse practitioners, nutritionist and our behavioral feeding clinic. I mail all reports to the families once completed by the providers. Patient Care Profile I recognize that many of our families call when they need to make appointments for their children, have a question for their provider; need prescription refills. I try to assist families by ensuring all information is current to expedite their calls. I have grown to understand that many families are stressed due to the many challenges they may face and I try to be sensitive to their needs.

I'm 26 weeks and he moves all the time. He moves so much that I mentioned it to my DR., because I wanted to make sure it was normal. I only hope he's not awake as much on the outside, because i'm not sure when he sleeps!posted 11/01/2007 by hegan217
I am also 26 weeks prego and my baby only moves when I am relaxed or eating/drinking. Alot of times the baby is moveing but we just cant feel it.posted 03/16/2010 by lolligirl
I am 26 weeks prego. I feel my lil Royal moving often. I dont know what direction she is laying in by often will the kicks at the bottom of my stomach and on the left and right side of my stomach. I feel movment in the morning around 9,11am(I guess she telling me to eat Lol) I also feel alot of moving when I lay down at night around 12am. I had a scare the other night and me didnt feel her moving. So I laid on my side and me and my husband prayed for her and sure enough(boom boom boom) I am here mommy and daddy and everything is okay. Heart beat last week at the Dr was 147. I am having a girl! hope this helps!posted 02/28/2010 by latiffanyaka08
26 weeks as well. just asked my doctor this last week because some days are considerably more active than others. she said as long as i feel the baby move daily, not to worry. at this point, there isn't really a set patter to baby's movements.posted 11/08/2010 by areischman
I am surprised to hear deifferent responses from what I am feeling. My baby girl moves a little throughout the day, but all the time when I haven't eaten. It is like she tells me when it is time to eat during a specific time. Once I eat, she rests and does not move again until I haven't eaten. I think it is cute. Also when the television is on and I am lying down on my right side, she tends to move. I can't wait to meet her! My doctor tells me that since I am tall with a long torso, I will not feel as much movement even though she is actually moving alot.posted 02/02/2011 by Pisces11234
I somtimes get nervous when I dont feel my daughter move as much, it scares me even more because she seems to move less when I'm under stress, but I think as long as you feel at least 1 movement a day he/she is fine.posted 03/22/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
Am also 26 weeks and baby girl moves frequently all the times but most expecially when a eat or drink something she becomes more active.I USUALLY feels her a lot when i sleep sideways too all this makes you the mother really happy just to know that your baby is alive and healthy.Three days ago, I intentionally faced a light just to know how sensitive my baby girl is, and it was amazing how this little girl was moving inside me.my husband and i was just happy to notice that.posted 03/08/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
my little girl is going to be a soccer player like her momma :) she moves all the time, especially when her daddy comes home from work and talks to her about his day- she's very excited. I was worried one day when she didn't move as much as usual, but I had an ultrasound the next day, and we discovered she had found a position she really liked and was very comfortable in and was just chillin'.posted 01/15/2008 by havinga-kit
Im also 26 weeks and my little girl moves all the time it feels like. Mostly just flutters but sometimes she will get to moving and kicking so hard you can see my stomach move to one side. Its so weird but if the DR says your baby is doing fine then it must just be GREAT SLEEPER! Mine wakes me up at night so really I would love for mine to calm down it seems like and get some rest from all this moving and kicking! :)posted 11/27/2007 by proudmommy07-08

Now in its fifth year, the Kentucky Horse Park Literacy Program promotes the love of the horse and the love of literacy by connecting horse-themed books, children and horses. The Kentucky Horse Park's dedicated staff and volunteers have created a program for Kentucky's second-grade and fourth-grade school children with horse-themed books, hands-on experiences, teacher's curriculum and much more!
The program consists of several components, beginning with an in-school program where second-grade students are given a horse-themed book of their own to read and keep. All participating second-grade and fourth-grade teachers are also invited to bring their students to the Kentucky Horse Park for a special "Literacy Day" field trip. These specially designed days will give students the opportunity to visit the park while exploring an overarching theme related to the book that they read.
The second-grade students received Finnegan and Fox: The Ten Foot Cop written by Helen C. Wilbur. During their field trip, the students will visit the Kids Barn, meet the Kentucky Horse Park Mounted Police horses and officers, view the Horses of the World performance, meet live horses and complete an educational activity at the International Museum of the Horse.
The fourth-grade students received Perfect Timing: How Isaac Murphy Became One of the World's Greatest Jockeys written by Patsi Trollinger. During their field trip the students will visit Isaac Murphy's grave, which is located next to the Man o' War gravesite at the front entrance of the Kentucky Horse Park. The students will also view the Horses of the World performance with a Hall of Champions special guest horse, meet live horses and complete an educational activity at the International Museum of the Horse.
This year, nearly 3,000 students from 47 schools throughout 13 Kentucky counties will visit the Kentucky Horse Park between March 17 – May 9, 2014. There are 45 schools receiving full scholarship to cover the cost of the books and admission into the Kentucky Horse Park for the field trip. This program is made possible through the generous contributions of our sponsors: Kentucky Bank, Toyota, UK HealthCare Kentuck Children's Hospital, KTA, The Rouse Family Foundation, Maryann and Charles Davis.

Title: Angel's Ink
Author: Jocelynn Drake
Series: The Asylum Tales
Publisher: Harper Voyager
Published: October 16, 2012
Pages: 368
From the Publisher: Buyer beware . . .
Looking for a tattoo-and maybe a little something extra: a burst of good luck, a dollop of true love, or even a hex on an ex? Head to the quiet and mysterious Gage, the best skin artist in town. Using his unique potions-a blend of extraordinary ingredients and special inks-to etch the right symbol, he can fulfill any heart's desire. But in a place like Low Town, where elves, faeries, trolls, werewolves, and vampires happily walk among humanity, everything has its price.
No one knows that better than Gage. Turning his back on his own kind, he left the magical Ivory Tower where cruel witches and warlocks rule, a decision that cost him the right to practice magic. And if he disobeys, his punishment-execution-will be swift.
Though he's tried to fly under the radar, Gage can't hide from powerful warlocks who want him dead-or the secrets of his own past. But with the help of his friends, Trixie, a gorgeous elf who hides her true identity, and a hulking troll named Bronx, Gage just might make it through this enchanted world alive.
**I received an ARC from the publisher but that did not affect the review**
Celeste's review: 3.5 stars. I was so excited to get my hands on an ARC of this book as it seemed like it would be a dark and gritty read…I was so right. Then it was topped off with the fact that the story is told from Gage's POV, which is always refreshing to hear from the hero as opposed to the heroine.
The story: Gage gave up the life of a warlock because he didn't agree with the superior mentality witches and warlocks felt they deserved. However, his differing opinion made him an outcast with a huge target on his forehead. Instead of a life in the Ivory towers, he opened a tattoo parlor in a seedy section of town. However, not all of his work was about ordinary tattoos…many times (for a price) the ink was mixed with potions to find luck, money, love or whatever the customer was willing to pay for. He didn't do his job alone, he employed Trixie (a gorgeous elf with her own secrets) and Bronx (a troll with a loyal heart).
Before long Gage finds himself wanted dead, and not by just one person. This book tells the story of him sorting out many situations at once, including the romance.
While I was definitely interested to see where the story headed, I found it was still easy to put the book down.
The romance: It was good, but the fact that Trixie was an elf was a serious issue. I could only picture Peter Pan with pointy ears. I know she was supposed to be voluptuous with beautiful curls in her blond hair, but frankly, the term "elf" just could not be anything but that image I just mentioned.
The hero: Gage is not a bad guy, he is just trying to get by and do the right thing…but it seems like he can't catch a break. Anyone and everyone seems to want him dead. While this seems like a lot for the reader to keep track of, even with all the threats, the story is told clearly and I never found myself scratching my head or needing to go back and double check facts. The author tells a very fluid story that built effortlessly.
The ending: It came together really well, with quite a few twists and turns and lots of action. It ended in a great place that wasn't a cliff hanger, but there is oh so much more of the story to be told.

That said I AM an asshole and a procrastinator but I'm working on that. I also think I have ADD and I'm a foreigner. It doesn't matter where I'm at, I'm foreigner everywhere I go; I come from a long line of nomads and immigrants.
(includes people that I watch and is in alphabetical order and also it only has the people I can think of and I don't think very well in general)
The fallen ones:


text: Gr 5-8-- These credible titles are attractively designed with colorful covers. The format is inviting with a variety of fonts at the beginning of each chapter, quotations, and a multitude of illustrations (one or two on almost every spread). The text is clear and to the point, and chapters are divided into short topics. Pacific and Doughboys are full of vintage black-and-white photos while Roman Legions features photos of statues, coins, historical sites, and reproductions of artistic works. Related information is found in numerous boxes. Each title has one map, which is of mediocre quality. Doughboys has a glitch in that Harry S. Truman did not grow up on a farm in Kansas. Otherwise, all three texts appear to be accurate, although there are some typos. Pacific and Roman Legions are definitely first choices; purchase Doughboys with the knowledge of the error.--Eldon Younce, Harper Elementary School, KS[Page 132].
