Ash Flat police charged a Hardy man with theft after police located more than $2,200 worth of tools in his possession July 9.
A city resident contacted Ash Flat Police Chief Mike Zeiger July 9 and informed him that her cellular phone and car keys were taken from the hood of her car the night before. The woman said Steven Carroll and another man came to her home around 10:30 p.m. and asked if another man lived at the home, the affidavit said. When the woman told him no, the two men left the house. Moments later she noticed the items missing from the hood of her car which was parked in front of the home.
Zeiger then performed a record check on Carroll and learned he was on probation in Sharp County. Probation Officer Amy Wiles was informed of the situation and went with Zeiger to a travel trailer on Tuff Street where Carroll was thought to be living.
When Zeiger and Wiles arrived they could hear music coming from the trailer and people moving around inside but no one answered the door for approximately three minutes despite Zeiger knocking several times and announcing "police department," the police report said.
When the door finally opened it was Merriam who answered. He told Zeiger Carroll wasn't at the trailer but would be back in a few hours, the affidavit said.
Wiles, who is also Merriam's probation officer, then told Merriam he would have to take a urine drug test for her. After Merriam and Wiles went inside, Wiles soon called for Zeiger to come inside the trailer.
"As (I) entered the trailer I could see Carroll in the hallway," Zeiger said. "I told Carroll hi and told Merriam, 'I thought Steve wasn't here.' Merriam stated 'I didn't know he was in the bathroom.'"
Zeiger then took Carroll outside, read him his rights and asked him about the theft of the cellular phone and car keys from the woman the night before, the affidavit said. Carroll said he was at the home but didn't steal anything, the affidavit said.
"Wiles then called me back into the trailer where she pointed to a coffee table and in plain view was a partially smoked marijuana cigarette and rolling papers ... I then looked to the right of the door and in plain view on the benches around the kitchen table were tools, air compressor and welding torches that I had taken a theft report on this same morning from Gary Fowler," Zeiger said.
Fowler reported an air compressor, welding torches, cordless drills, lights and chargers stolen from his home.
Carroll told Zeiger the tools were those he uses for work, the report said. Zeiger then told Carroll he was under arrest for felony theft of property.
"Carroll yelled at Merriam and stated, 'Man, I'm on parole. You need to take responsibility for your part. They will send me to the penitentiary,'" Zeiger said.
Merriam then told Zeiger he was taking responsibility for the stolen property, the report said. Zeiger then took the handcuffs off Carroll and told Merriam he was under arrest for the felony charge instead.
Merriam told Zeiger he didn't steal the tools but instead traded some other tools for them; however, he would not tell Zeiger who he traded the tools with or any details about the theft, the affidavit said.
Zeiger then told Carroll he thought he knew who stole the phone and keys. While Carroll continued to deny taking the keys he told Zeiger he thought he might know who had the items, the report said. He said he would get back with Zeiger the following day.
Merriam was then transported to the Sharp County Jail.
Zeiger then had a city employee to come to the trailer with a truck to haul the property back to the police department where they were inventoried. The stolen tools were returned to Fowler July 10.
Carroll contacted Zeiger the next day and said he had found the cellular phone that had been reported stolen the day before. He said a woman pulled up to his home in a minivan with the phone and had someone give it to him, Zeiger said. Carroll said he didn't know the whereabouts of the stolen car keys.
When the owner of the cellular phone came to the police department July 11 to retrieve her phone she said a Weed Eater inside Zeiger's office was also stolen from her home, Zeiger said. She said a friend had left it at her home. She took the Weed Eater and said she would get it back to its rightful owner, he said.

Candida Diaper Rash (Infant/Toddler)
Candida is type of yeast. It grows almost everywhere, especially in warm, moist areas. It is common for Candida to grow in the skin folds under a child's diaper. Candida can also grow in cracks of an untreated diaper rash. These conditions are called a Candida diaper rash.
With a Candida rash, the entire area under the diaper may be bright red. The borders of the rash may be raised. Smaller patches may grow outward. But they eventually blend in with the larger rash. The rash may have small bumps and pimples filled with pus. The scrotum in boys may be very red and scaly. The area will itch and cause the child to be fussy.
Candida diaper rash is most often treated with an antifungal cream or ointment. The rash will clear a few days after starting the medicine. Infections that don't go away may need a prescription medicine. In rare cases, a bacterial infection can also occur.
Home care
Your child's health care provider will recommend an antifungal cream or ointment for the diaper rash. He or she may also prescribe a medicine for the itch. Follow all instructions for giving these medicines to your child. Apply a thick layer of cream or ointment on the rash. It can be left on the skin between diaper changes. You can apply more cream or ointment on top, if the area is clean.
General care
Follow these tips when caring for your child:
Change your child's diaper as soon as it is soiled. Always change the diaper at least once at night. Put the diaper on loosely.
Gently pat the area clean with a warm, wet soft cloth. Dried stool can be loosened by squeezing warm water on the area or adding a few drops of mineral oil. If you use soap, it should be gentle and scent-free.
Allow your child to go without a diaper for periods of time. Exposing the skin to air will help it to heal. Don't use a hair dryer or heat lamp on your child's skin. These can cause skin burns.
Use a breathable cover for cloth diapers instead of rubber pants. Slit the elastic legs or cover of a disposable diaper in a few places. This will allow air to reach your child's skin.
Don't use powders such as talc or cornstarch. Talc is harmful to a child's lungs. Cornstarch can cause the Candida infection to get worse.
Wash your hands well with soap and warm water before and after changing your child's diaper.
Follow-up care
Follow up with your child's health care provider.
When to seek medical advice
Call your child's health care provider right away if any of these occur:
Fever of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher
Symptoms that don't get better with treatment
Symptoms that get worse
New symptoms, such as blisters, open sores, raw skin, or bleeding
Foul-smelling drainage from the skin

Thieves broke into more than 20 vehicles in the last week in Columbia, and police expect more during the holiday shopping season. Officers told ABC 17 News burglars targeted 15 different areas around the city. They hit cars parked outside hotels, on residential streets and near shopping centers. Electronics and cash are the most common but now investigators are seeing a lot more radios, credit cards and jewelry. ABC 17 News even found one person who had his car stripped. Everything was gone, including the back seats. Neighbors are also worried because it is happening more and more. "It happened a lot around here recently. It seems like just next door our other neighbor got robbed only a few months ago," says Britton Wright while looking at a pile of broken glass on the street. Police say despite the increased burglaries, they are not easy to track. "We have certain areas in town that we've seen targeted, certain parking lots, but then they're not returning to those same parking lots," Columbia police officer Latisha Stroer explains. Officers say there have been at least 18 car break-ins over each of the past four weeks. With that in mind, Wright says he is doing everything he can to make sure it does not happen to him. "I just make sure I don't have anything valuable in it and make sure it's locked all the time, try to keep a good eye on it," Wright says. Investigators say about 75 percent of car break-ins involve unlocked doors.

Alfreton Town 1-1 Nuneaton Town
- From the section Football
James Armson kept Nuneaton Town's play-off hopes alive after his late strike clinched a draw at Alfreton.
The home side had taken the lead in the first half after John Akinde converted Bradley Wood's cross to claim his 13th goal of the season.
Nuneaton striker Andy Brown then twice went close before Alfreton's Jon Worsnop saved well from Danny Sleath.
Worsnop failed to stop Armson though, who slotted home a right-footed shot with six minutes left to claim a point.
The result leaves Alfreton in fourth spot, two clear of sixth-placed Grimsby and three clear of Nuneaton who lie seventh.
Alfreton Town manager Nicky Law told BBC Radio Derby:
"We came in at half-time having created enough chances to be out of sight and we haven't done that. We haven't been ruthless enough.
"They've gambled and changed their shape. Rather than us being able to get the ball down and get it out wide and exploit that, we haven't done it and then I end up having to change our shape to accommodate them.
"I've just said to the players in there that if they've got any aspirations of getting in the play-offs, then they've got to be better than that."

I'm working on a bit of a project in python. I have a client and a server. The server listens for connections and once a connection is received it waits for input from the client. The idea is that the client can connect to the server and execute system commands such as ls and cat. This is my server code:
import sys, os, socket
host = ''
port = 50105
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind((host, port))
print("Server started on port: ", port)
print("Server listening\n")
conn, addr = s.accept()
print 'New connection from ', addr
while (1):
rc = conn.recv(5)
pipe = os.popen(rc)
rl = pipe.readlines()
file = conn.makefile('w', 0)
And this is my client code:
import sys, socket
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
host = 'localhost'
port = input('Port: ')
s.connect((host, port))
cmd = raw_input('$ ')
file = s.makefile('r', 0)
When I start the server I get the right output, saying the server is listening. But when I connect with my client and type a command the server exits with this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "server.py", line 21, in <module>
rc = conn.recv(2)
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/socket.py", line 165, in _dummy
raise error(EBADF, 'Bad file descriptor')
socket.error: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor
On the client side, I get the output of ls but the server gets screwed up.

Newtown, Mass.-based UPC Wind, a wind farm developer and owner, has achieved several milestones for its proposed 57 MW Stetson Wind Project, which will be situated on a ridge in Washington County, Maine.
According to the company, the project has received support from key community leaders, including the chair of the Washington County Commissioners. In addition, the Maine Land Use Regulation Commission (LURC) recently deemed the project's rezoning petition complete, which will set the stage for a full review of the project by LURC, along with public hearings.
The proposed Stetson Wind Project would consist of 38 GE 1.5 MW wind turbines. The site was selected based on a number of factors, including the ridge's source of wind and that the location has no residential property currently closer than 2,500 feet, the company says. The ridge also provides existing roads that will be improved during construction, and two-thirds of the needed transmission lines will be in the same area as existing electric lines.
'Together with UPC Wind's facility in Mars Hill, the proposed Stetson Wind Project will generate enough clean wind energy to power about 50,000 homes,' says Paul Gaynor, UPC Wind's president and chief executive officer. 'Although this project is still in the early planning and permitting stages, we are encouraged by the positive feedback we have received from Commissioner Gardner and the people of Washington County.'

Ever forgotten you were traveling with your mother and left her behind at the hotel after you checked out? How about your spouse? While you may have wanted to leave him or her behind, a poll by LastMinute.com of 500 hotels around the world found that these scenarios actually have happened.
In Prague a man left his wife behind – the hotel didn't say if it was accidental or planned! And a hotel in Ireland reported a traveler forgot that his mother was with him and left without her.
Perhaps even odder are items left behind that someone probably shouldn't have been traveling with in the first place. For instance, a man left behind snails in a Budapest hotel room. Maybe he was planning on asking the chef to cook him some escargot? Another guest, in a U.S. hotel, left behind $10,000 in cash.
Snails aren't the only animal guests have left behind. A hotel in Washington discovered a customer had forgotten his snake, while a dog was left behind by its owner in a Milan hotel.
"You Want What?": Bizarre Requests from Hotel Guests
Another big "oops": a police officer forgot his gun and badge in Las Vegas. I guess what goes to Vegas, stays in Vegas.
Of course, more commonly left behind are cell phone, camera and laptop chargers. Passports are another oft-forgotten item.
Reading about what other people have forgotten in their hotel rooms got me to thinking, what kinds of stuff have I left behind?
I've been pretty lucky. The worst thing I've forgotten was a favorite pair of black evening pants (which I still miss very much, by the way). But I remember a time, back when I was a kid, when my family discovered on the drive home from New England that my sister had left behind her beloved stuffed duck, Engineer. I don't know how far from the hotel we had gotten, but we turned right around to go back and get him.
Finding Hotel Rooms: No Vacancy? No Problem
Overall, the writers here at IndependentTraveler.com are pretty good about remembering to check their hotel rooms before leaving. But a few of us learned this the hard way.
Adam Coulter, the senior editor at the U.K. office of our sister site CruiseCritic.com, recently left behind his iPod speakers, an electric toothbrush charger, a hooded sweater, several T-shirts and his swimsuit at a hotel in New Jersey.
Another CruiseCritic.co.uk staffer, Jamey Bergman, and his wife left their laptop behind in a hotel in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Luckily all turned out well as the hotel FedExed the computer to their final destination free of charge (though they still argue over whose fault it was).
What have you left behind in a hotel room?

Ever forgotten you were traveling with your mother and left her behind at the hotel after you checked out? How about your spouse? While you may have wanted to leave him or her behind, a poll by LastMinute.com of 500 hotels around the world found that these scenarios actually have happened.
Do extra fees really impact a hotel guest's stay? A new J.D. Power and Associates survey indicates that unwelcome fees may be more than just a small annoyance. In fact, extra fees, like bad customer service, put hotel guests in a negative frame of mind — never a good thing when it comes to measuring satisfaction.
According to the North American Hotel Guest Satisfaction Index study, the average guest satisfaction is at 757 (out of a possible high of 1,000). But guests who indicated they had received free Internet were more satisfied (775) than those who were charged for Internet (743).
It seems that for many guests, what they paid (or didn't pay) for Wi-Fi may have colored their entire hotel stay.
So, if Internet was free, their overall hotel experience was better, almost as if free Internet came with rose-colored glasses — what a pretty carpet, isn't that receptionist nice, what cute little shampoo bottles.
But for those forced to pay for their Internet usage, the hotel was simply a disappointment — the carpets seem faded, the receptionists aren't helpful and they'd much rather have free Wi-Fi than stupid little shampoo bottles.
Okay, specific questions about the carpets, receptionists and shampoo bottles weren't in the survey, but you know what I mean.
I hate paying for Internet at a hotel, especially if I'm being charged per hour or more than $20 for a day. It just puts me in a bad mood, and yeah, maybe I do suddenly "realize" that what I first thought of as a pretty aqua blue carpet is actually faded royal blue that hasn't been replaced in years. And the woman at the hotel's front desk who I thought was working hard to help another guest was actually simply ignoring me.
But at hotels where the Internet is free, I'm much more relaxed, happily surprised and willing to give the hotel more leeway. So what if I never use the hotel's shampoo samples? How nice that the hotel isn't stingy and offers that amenity, in addition (of course) to the free Internet.
It's really just a matter of the hotel setting up my mood. Give me something I want (and quite frankly need) for free, and I'm happy. Make me pay for it, and you get a grumpy puss who's looking for something to complain about.
It's really not a new concept. That's why customer service has always been important. Good customer service makes for happy customers, who see the rest of their experience through a positive lens. Bad customer service…
Let's go back to the J.D. Power survey for a moment. Guests with a high opinion of a hotel's staff have an overall satisfaction index of 841, while those with an average or low opinion of staff have overall satisfaction indexes of 673 and 570 respectively. That's a pretty big difference, if you ask me.
So if good customer service is giving guests what they want, and the hotel amenity travelers want most is free Wi-Fi, we can't help but wonder: Why do any hotels still insist on charging for the Internet?
Tips for Better Wi-Fi on the Road
Hidden Hotel Fees
Choosing a Hotel
— written by Dori Saltzman
The 2012 Summer Olympic Games are in full swing in London, and as is often the case during major events, prices for accommodations were sold at large premiums in the months leading up to the Games. But many hotels have seen less demand than they expected, prompting some to "discount" their inflated rates at the last minute in order to fill still-empty rooms.
According to the Press Association, some booking engines reported prices inflated as much as 300 percent over the past two months, but say rates have since fallen back to levels that are closer to the norm.
Over-inflated prices aren't uncommon when major events come to town, such as Mardi Gras New Orleans or Venice's Carnevale, but when demand is lower than expected, prices do sometimes fall — leaving visitors who booked early feeling ripped off. So what's a budget traveler to do to protect against price gouging when inflation is an issue?
1. Use sites like Tingo.com, which will credit your card accordingly if the price of your booked hotel room drops. (See Want a Hotel Refund? Yes. Please. to learn more about Tingo.)
2. Look into refundable rates, check cancellation policies and consider purchasing appropriate travel insurance in case you have buyer's remorse after booking an expensive room. Whether you find a cheaper room elsewhere or just flat-out decide to forgo the entire trip, you'll be more likely to get your money back.
3. Ditch the hotel. If hotels are out of your price range during certain special events, consider staying at a hostel, a bed and breakfast or someone's home (also known as couch surfing). Vacation rentals are also another option, which can be less expensive and offer more homey comforts.

My brother — a total tech geek — recently posted a picture on Facebook of his hotel bedside table during a trip. It was cluttered with gadgets recharging via the power strip he packed. My other brother countered with a bedside shot of his own, a bottle of wine and a new wine opener that he obviously hadn't yet mastered, as the cork was bobbing in the half-empty bottle. I was appalled — by the technophile brother's pic, not the oenophile brother's pic — until I realized I often travel with just about as many gadgets. My electronics and their accoutrements seem to swallow more than their fair share of my carry-on's real estate.
Wouldn't it be lovely if my hotel provided me with a recharging station, so I could at least leave power cords at home? Aloft properties, such as the one in Brooklyn, have a plug and play connectivity station that charges all your electronics in addition to linking to a 42-inch LCD TV. And according to CNN.com, the Ecclestone Square Hotel in central London features in-wall docking and charging points for your electronic devices.
The Opus Vancouver hotel goes one better: It provides guests with the use of an iPhone, as reported by USA Today. This is especially cool if you'd otherwise have to pay for international roaming fees on your own phone. Plus, the important numbers for the hotel (concierge or housekeeping) are already programmed in. And they wipe the iPhone clean when you check out to protect your privacy and security. The Opus also offers an iPad 2 in every room, loaded with an iPad virtual concierge.
The Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo lends iPods to guests. The devices at the Peninsula can guide guests on walking tours of the Imperial Gardens and other city sites.
You could also use these loaner devices to take photos and upload them to social media sites where your sibling will try to one-up you.
Would you prefer to use electronics supplied by your hotel, or would you never leave home without your own gear?

Imagine a booking site that anticipates your hotel preferences based solely on the type of computer you use. If this seems a bit absurd, you may want to take it up with Orbitz, which has begun using data-monitoring technology to direct Mac users to slightly more upscale (and expensive) hotels than those highlighted for PC users.
First reported by the Wall Street Journal, this practice is possible because retail sites can track whether visitors are coming in via Windows or other operating systems. They can even tell which sorts of devices — computer, iPad, Android, etc. — visitors are using.
According to the WSJ article, Orbitz's analytics team has determined that Mac users spend an average of about 30 percent more per night than PC users on hotels booked through the site. So, although all Orbitz visitors have access to the same hotels at identical prices, Mac users are initially directed to view more expensive options.
Ditch the Hotel: 10 Cheaper Ways to Stay
My first thought was that it's sort of like saying I'm more likely to prefer polka-dotted elephants to striped turtles because I drive a Volkswagen — the two are unrelated. On the other hand, there are statistics (including higher household income among Mac users) to back up the correlation.
All of this data tracking makes me wonder just how far the travel industry (or any industry, for that matter) will go in an effort to personalize content. I'm envisioning sites that direct iPad users to hotels that have iPod docking stations, and Windows XP (circa 2001) users being sent to deals for inexpensive chain hotels.

Four new Web sites claim to either save users bundles of money on hotels or match them to the right property based on a variety of personal parameters. IndependentTraveler.com fiddled around with the sites to see which ones are worth your time and which you shouldn't bother with.
Show Me the Money
Less than a year old, BackBid.com gets hotels to bid on your business.
You start by already having a hotel reservation in a city. You enter your hotel reservation with dates of travel and competing hotels send you bids in an attempt to lure you away. Bids can be in the form of money-saving discounts or value-added services, like upgraded rooms, free breakfasts or parking fee waivers. If you like a bid, you can claim it; if you don't, just keep your original reservation. Keep in mind, if you take a bidder up on their offer you'll need to cancel your original reservation – beware of cancellation penalties!
Travelers without hotel reservations simply enter their travel plans to get bids from hotels in their city of choice.
BackBid claims to provide competitor rates that cover all U.S. cities, and plans to expand into other countries eventually.
IndependentTraveler.com's Take: BackBid looks promising but we haven't yet received a bid from a hotel. If bids are few and far between, the site won't be around for too long. However, it costs only a few minutes of your time to give it a try. Who knows? Maybe you'll get an offer you can't refuse!
Want a Hotel Refund? Check This Web Site
Guestmob.com is another relatively new travel booking site, which claims to use algorithms to find deals up to 50 percent off Internet prices – what it calls the "magic price." The catch: You don't know which hotel you're staying at until one to six days prior to check-in.
It's not as dangerous as you might think since when you do a hotel search, the site returns one or more hotel collections composed of four to eight hotels, all of the same star ranking (as determined by Guestmob). If you decide to book a magic rate, you are guaranteed a stay in one of the hotels within the collection you chose. Additionally, if you find out what hotel you're staying at and you don't like it, you can cancel any reservation up to three days before your stay and get a full refund. Of course, if you don't get your hotel notification before that three-day time period, you're out of luck on the refund.
A quick search for Seattle for Aug. 9 to 18 returned two collections – one 3.5-star and one 4-star. The magic price for the 3.5-star collection was $160, while the magic price for the 4-star collection was $174. A comparison search on Hotwire for the four hotels in the 3.5-star collection came up with prices $17 to $85 higher.
The site currently only offers hotels in 20 U.S. cities.
IndependentTraveler.com's Take: Because you're not selecting a hotel completely blind, we see no reason not to give Guestmob a chance. The site does claim it offers deeper discounts to people who sign in via Facebook – thus sharing their travel plans with their Facebook friends. However, we didn't test this, choosing to register via e-mail instead.
Get the Best Hotel Rate
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, Make Me a Match
Still in its infancy, CasaHop.com is a social networking platform designed to aid people in finding homeswaps. Unlike other home exchange networks, CasaHop works through Facebook. So for the most part you're networking with friends, family and friends of friends/family. The more public you're willing to make your CasaHop profile, the broader the network you can exchange with.
Right now all you can do on the site is sign up via Facebook and enter information about your house, your neighborhood and your own vacation interests. The database and interactive community functions are scheduled to go live over the next few weeks.
In theory, by networking through Facebook, you're avoiding swaps with "total" strangers. However, for those who are hesitant about sharing personal information on Facebook, CasaHop may not be right for you. In order for the site to work effectively you do need to enter a significant amount of personal information about your home and community, including photos.
IndependentTraveler.com's Take: We're leery of entering too much personal information, but for those who don't mind, we say go for it.
A second match-making site, seriously in a beta testing phase, is simplehoney.com. This site claims to match users to accommodations based on their travel personality, assessed through a couple of short quizzes. But the site has so few hotels in its database that the matches seem a bit of a stretch right now.
IndependentTraveler.com's Take: The jury's out. According to the hotel matching page, they currently offer only hotel matches in California and Hawaii. But at the bottom of every search we've done, hotels in Vancouver and Nicaragua appear, which makes us think they're throwing advertisers into the results. Another bad sign — while free at the moment, it says there will eventually be a one-time membership fee of $100. But for what? The two personality tests do offer a moment's diversion, but for now we don't think the site is worth your time.
What Not to Do at Your Hotel

Think you're a picky hotel guest? "Hotel Impossible" host Anthony Melchiorri will give you a run for your money.
The new show, which airs Monday nights at 10 p.m. ET on the Travel Channel, follows roughly the same formula as popular restaurant renovation shows like Gordon Ramsey's "Kitchen Nightmares" on FOX and Food Network's "Restaurant Impossible": likable host swoops into failing establishment and uncovers all of the challenges holding it back from success — then attempts to turn it all around during a one-hour episode with a blend of tough love and humor.
Indeed, the recent episode we caught, featuring the Hotel Corpus Christi Bayfront in Corpus Christi, Texas, offered its fair share of laughs. After arriving at the hotel to find an unmanned check-in desk, Melchiorri took matters into his own hands — namely, a tree in the atrium that, when shaken, showered dust onto an already grungy carpet ("the only thing staying at this hotel is dirt!"). Other unpleasant discoveries were just around the corner during Melchiorri's full inspection, including a head-scratching toilet paper shortage, dead roaches, a pigeon corpse by the rooftop pool and thousands of uninvited guests of the bacterial kind.
How to Find a Clean Hotel Room
Melchiorri also provided guidance to the hotel staff (after he finally found them), from the overwhelmed owner to a haphazard housekeeper who did such a poor job cleaning a toilet that Melchiorri asked her where he was expected to put his butt. All good stuff — but when Don Jones, the gentleman in charge of hotel marketing, announced his job title to be Intergalactic Ninja Sultan of Revenue Development, we knew for sure we'd be back for more episodes. You can catch some of the highlights from this one here.
Amid the comedy and gross-outs, interesting facts about the hotel industry do emerge. Did you know, for example, that hotels that offer room service generally charge more per night, and that by adding room service a property can expect to increase overall revenue by 10 percent? We also learned that a typical hotel allows 30 minutes per room for housecleaning; that's a lot of manpower for a 199-room hotel.
Curious about how the hotel is faring post-intervention, we surfed over to TripAdvisor. Alas, the property's reviews are still mixed, with a submission from just this week citing fruit flies and stains. But there's a bright spot: Mr. Jones no longer appears to be identifying himself as a Ninja Sultan in his responses to guests.
5 Things You Should Never Do at a Hotel

Earlier this week, IndependentTraveler.com's own Ed Hewitt highlighted the myriad benefits of membership in a hotel rewards program, such as free stays, room upgrades and other perks. (See Seven Smart Reasons to Join a Hotel Rewards Program to get the scoop.) But for many independent travelers, there's one major drawback: Who wants to stay in bland chain hotels all the time?
If you're the type of globetrotter who seeks out cozy B&B's, stylish boutique hotels or unique local properties, you don't have to forgo hotel rewards programs. We've unearthed three intriguing loyalty programs that go beyond the usual Starwoods and Hyatts.
Tablet Plus
TabletHotels.com is a portal for boutique and luxury hotels around the world, many of them independently owned. The site's loyalty program, Tablet Plus, offers complimentary upgrades, advance access to private sales, and fun extras like free cocktails and cooking classes at hundreds of participating hotels. Membership costs $195 a year.
Do You Prefer Chains or Independent Hotels?
Select Rewards
An alliance of more than 300 inns and B&Bs across North America, SelectRegistry.com offers a rewards program that's refreshingly simple: Stay 12 nights, and get a reward certificate of $100 to be used toward your next stay at any Select Registry property. There's no cost for the program, but you'll need to accumulate your 12 nights within a two-year period to qualify for the $100 reward.
We're cheating a little by including the Global Hotel Alliance in this list, since it's a network of small luxury hotel chains (including Anantara, Omni and Pan Pacific) — but its rewards program is unlike most others in the world. The DISCOVERY program offers not free stays but unique local experiences, such as surfing lessons, spa treatments, after-hours access to museums or meet-and-greet sessions with local public figures. The more nights you stay, the more exclusive the experiences available to you. Membership, which is free, also includes more conventional loyalty perks such as free Wi-Fi, your choice of newspaper and room upgrades.

How many of you rely on user-generated reviews to help pick a hotel or vacation rental? Virtual show of hands. That's what we thought. And if a vacation rental owner's property listing had bathroom pics showing only the porcelain spaces not dripping black mold, you might be inclined to tell the world, ex post tripso.
Not so fast.
According to a recent piece by veteran consumer travel writer Chris Elliott, "non-disparagement" clauses are seeping into vacation rental contracts as owners and management companies attempt to vigorously defend their reputations in a user-generated landscape. One scathing review, real or fake, can gut a small business, they say. Consumers aren't the only ones who need protection.
Blow off the fine print and you could face a heavy fine, which a couple did recently for posting a negative review of an Arizona vacation rental on VRBO.com. Their rental contract said they needed consent from the owner or the owner's rep, Progressive Management Concepts, to do so. Their credit card was hit with a punitive $500 fine. (The couple eventually agreed to take down the review and got their $500 back, plus $200 more.)
TJ Mahony, CEO and co-founder of IndependentTraveler.com sister site FlipKey, a vacation rental site, told us he hadn't heard of this practice yet — but said, "In principle, we would never encourage nor support this.
"The overwhelmingly majority of vacation rental experiences are positive. Moreover, FlipKey and TripAdvisor offer extensive reputation management tools to help homeowners effectively manage their online reputation and address unreasonable claims."
Mahony said he would personally never sign a contract including such a clause.
Ditch the Hotel: 10 Cheaper Ways to Stay
We agree. While there's little doubt that fake, or at least disingenuous, reviews are a problem, forced confidentiality is not the solution. Online reviews are not some "vast buzzing, blooming confusion," as travel icon Arthur Frommer recently told the Wall Street Journal. They're one of many essential tools — which include, yes, guidebooks — used by the savvy traveler.
So, amid the fine print, there's may be another question to ask when interviewing a vacation rental owner: Are you okay with consumer reviews?

Tigers teammates collide, doing well
: : Story
David Rawnsley
Sunday, October 23, 2011
Sometimes Baseball isn't just that important. In the bottom of the 4th inning of the Baseball U and Dallas Tigers game Sunday morning on Blue Field #7, Tigers' outfielders Jared Wilson and Conner Fikes, ironically senior teammates at Rowlett High School in Texas, were involved in a violent collision while chasing a fly ball in right field.
It was immediately obvious that both players could be seriously hurt and multiple calls to 911 were made by both parents at the game and Perfect Game staff. The Blue Quad Athletic Trainer reached the scene within 1 to 2 minutes and went to work at once to stabilize the unconscious Fikes. He was soon joined by the Athletic Trainer from the Red Quad, plus EMT's arriving by ambulance and fire truck and local police. A helicopter was called to rush Fikes to the hospital by air and lifted off from the Blue 7 outfield approximately 20-25 minutes after the collision.
We are thrilled to report that both Connor Fikes and Jared Wilson are doing well. Fikes is being held overnight in the hospital for observation and has been diagnosed with a severe concussion but fortunately nothing worse. Wilson was transported to the hospital by car and treated for a mild concussion and broken nose and released.
Perfect Game would like to profusely thank all those involved who provided care and assistance to these two fine young players and young men. From the trainers to the EMT's to the police and helicopter pilot, their professionalism and training was obvious to all and an inspiration to everyone, as we all know that a similar misfortune could strike any of us at some point in the future.
Now back to fun and excitement of Baseball again.....

Somebody hand you a banana at Capitol Hill Station? They're part of the #coopthestation campaign to help the E Madison-headquartered Central Co-op win its bid to be the anchor grocery store at the 85-foot development slated to rise around the Broadway light rail station where empty pavement sits today.
Now, a group of members from UCFW 21 — "the largest private sector union in Washington State" and representative for Central Co-op's nearly 100 unionized employees — have sent an "open letter" to Gerding Edlen partner Jill Sherman calling on the developer to "do better by local workers and choose a union grocer where workers have a voice on the job, and earn a living wage."
The full letter is below. Central Co-op, by the way, is a CHS advertiser.
Labor groups and District 3 rep Kshama Sawant have already come out swinging against Portland-based developer Gerding Edlen's consideration of Portland-based grocery chain New Seasons for the light rail project. Continue reading

The common white one is Zantedeschia aethiopica, and like all callas, it's hardy in the US only in Zone 8 and above. This means these are 'tender bulbs' in most of the country, and have to be lifted and stored in fall. Many people grow callas in patio pots, and the pots can be brought in before frost.
Most of the very colorful callas are a separate species, C. rehmannii, and these have more narrow leaves than the classic white type. If you haven't grown callas, you may be surprised that these bulbs create a sizable plant. Sometimes the clumps grow 36' high. Most all callas have pointed or heart-shaped foliage that's dark green spattered with white spots. The bulbs are irregular, sort of like ginger roots, and several can be planted in the same pot. They enjoy being root-bound. If you plant your bulbs in spring, you'll have flowers in about 65 days.

Admission Requirements
Welcome to Northeast! We appreciate your interest in our program. We understand that it can be overwhelming if you are new to the college environment; even if you are currently enrolled or have been here before, it can still be a lot to navigate. We want to make your experience as positive as possible, so if you have any questions after reading through this information, please just contact us.
The Radiologic Technology program is an Associate Degree program. There are 26 hours of pre-requisite courses that must be taken prior to being eligible for acceptance into the program. When a student begins the program in the fall, only radiology specific courses and clinical rotations will be completed. This is a full time training program and it is not recommended for those who cannot devote themselves as full time students. Because technologists are on their feet for long periods of time and may lift or turn disabled patients, physical stamina is important (US Dept. of Labor). The program is designed to prepare students for employment in hospitals or clinics as radiographers. Radiographers produce radiographs (x-rays) of bones and body structures as directed by supervising physicians. This program will focus on principles of general radiography in preparation for the ARRT registry exam (a national certifying board examination).
The radiography program will accept 12 new students for each fall semester. Applications may be obtained from the link on this page. Hospitals that we utilize as clinical sites are: Magnolia Regional Health Center, Baptist Memorial-Booneville, Baptist Memorial-Union Co., Iuka Hospital (affiliate of North Mississippi Medical Center), Tippah County Hospital, Mitias Orthopaedics (New Albany, MS), and Magnolia Orthopaedics (Corinth, MS).
Applicants are responsible for requesting that transcripts from other institutions be sent to the records office before the application deadline. Interviews will be conducted beginning in January of each year. Please call the program director, Mrs. Jennifer Davis, to schedule your interview. Completed applications and interview must be received/completed no later than May 1. Previous applicants must call program faculty to have application re-activated. Students must maintain a minimum grade of "C" in both pre-requisite courses and radiography courses. Pre-requisite courses are listed below (updated October 2015):
ENG 1113 (Eng Comp I)
CSC 1123 (Computer Applications)
PSY 1513 (Gen Psych) or SOC 2113 (Intro to Sociology)
MAT 1233 (Inter. Alg.) or MAT 1313 (College Alg.)
ART 1113 (Art Appreciation) or MUS 1113 (Music Appreciation)
BIO 2514 (Anatomy and Physiology I + lab)
BIO 2524 (Anatomy and Physiology II + lab)
RGT 1213 (Fundamentals of Radiography) will be offered to any student who is interested in applying to the program. It has been added to the rating scale and will be scored like the pre-requisites listed above. It is offered online in the fall, spring, and summer semesters. The 8-hour observation will be incorporated into this course.

Farmer aims to produce largest harvest in nearby parishes
Ferriday — A 3-acre plot of land outside of Ferriday on U.S. 84 may be the largest tomato farm in a three-parish area.
The land contains 4,000 celebrity tomato plants, a variety that produces fruit measuring 4 inches across and weighing 8 ounces at full maturity.
The man behind the operation is Abner Blaylock, a former registered nurse who chose to switch careers and return to farming.
Prior to his nursing career, Blaylock said he did some farming.
"Farming gives you a different outlook on life," he said. "It takes some work, but it's a way of life that I enjoy."
He estimated that the plants would produce 40,000 pounds of tomatoes at harvest time, if the season goes well.
"I'd say it's quite unusual for someone to grow that many plants in one spot," Blaylock said. "I don't think that anyone in Concordia Parish or nearby parishes grow tomatoes at that scale."
He may be right.
Tomatoes aren't even listed in the LSU AgCenter's yearly summary of Concordia Parish Agriculture. Catahoula Parish produces a total of 23,600 lbs of tomatoes, valued at $15,842, according to the 2012 summary, while Tensas Parish's total production equals Blaylock's expected production — valued at $26,851.
LSU AgCenter Tensas Parish extension agent Dennis Burns said Blaylock's venture is unusual because most farmers choose row crops over more labor-intensive crops, such as tomatoes.
"Most farmers around this area concentrate on cotton, soybeans or corn," Burns said. "Picking tomatoes requires everything to be done by hand."
The potential output isn't the only unusual part of Blaylock's farming adventure. He is also using a new technology to grow crops more efficiently.
One of Blaylock's methods is called fertigation.
Concordia Parish extension agent Sara Nuss explained fertigation as a more efficient way to deliver fertilizer and water to the crops.
Nuss said farmers typically use a sprinkler or a drip line, which drips small amounts of water onto the plant.
"It's not nearly as efficient as fertigation," she said. "This will deliver water and fertilizer in one package. It should save a bit of money, too."
Another innovative technique is plastic covering that surrounds his rows of tomato plants.
The covering is white, reflecting sunlight and keeping the soil cool, and black on the bottom to stop weeds from growing.
Blaylock began planting on July 20 and expects to harvest in October.
Though Blaylock is preparing to produce tens of thousands of pounds of tomatoes, he hasn't secured a distributor. Instead, he plans to set up a vegetable stand on the roadside.
"Because I am on the highway, I think that'll be a good amount of traffic coming through," he said. "Who knows, because I have such a good spot, maybe I'll try some other things here."
Blaylock said he plans to expand his vegetable farming operation after harvesting tomatoes to include sweet corn, cabbage, lettuce and peas.
