Hello everyone,
Please tel me how to repair windows installation. Help required a.s.a.p.
The following step by step procedure shows you how to do the repair. Note, that you will need the CD key that came with your Windows disk to complete this procedure.
1. Make sure boot order in BIOS is set to floppy (if you have one), cd/dvd, and then the HDD your original Windows was installed on.
2. Insert your original Windows CD into your cd/dvd drive (a slipstreamed cd with SP will also workif you have one). If the Windows Installion menu appears, select Install Windows.
3. If that menu does not appear, go to Start, Turn Off Computer, and then select Restart. After the POST, you will see a prompt, "Press any key to boot from cd..."
so press the space key (any other key will also work).
4. Let Windows setup continue.
5. After a short while you will see an option to repair your Windows using the Recovery Console. Do NOT select this option. Just continue.
6. Soon after this you will see a message "Searching for a previous Windows Installation".
7. When Setup finds your previous Windows installion you will be given an option to Repair that installation. Follow the prompt on the screen, i.e, press R to repair.
8. Now just let setup continue until it is complete and you see your desktop.
9. Then, go to Windows Update (Start, All Programs, Windows Update) and let it search for and install any available service packs, and/or other updates.
10. Lastly, if you have any drivers that are wish to use other than the ones in Windows, just install them in the normal fashion.
Now your Windows is repaired and fully updated, and hopefully the problems you saw previously have been fixed.
A Repair Install is not foolproof and should not be considered the cure-all fix for non-boot situations.
The below procedure applies only if you can still boot into Windows.
To prevent loss of data and/or program settings, perform the following before the Repair Install.
Manually delete the Undo_guimode.txt file from the Windows\System32 folder before you perform any of the actions that are listed in the "Symptoms" section of this article. To do this in Windows XP, type the following command at a command prompt:
del /a /f %windir%\system32\undo_guimode.txt
1. From the Start menu, click Run. See screen shot Image
2. In the Run dialog box, in the Open text box, type: cmd. Click OK.
3. Delete the undo_guimode.txt file. In the C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe dialog box, type: del /a /f c:\windows\system32\undo_guimode.txt. Press the ENTER key.
Additional tips to perform before initiating the Repair Install.
You should complete the basic requirements of backing up all files and folders that cannot be restored from other media. This includes passwords, applications purchased and downloaded from the internet without CD support, financial records and folders, digital images that cannot be replaced...............
Backup copies of your registry files (in the %systemroot%\Repair folder) are also replaced after the in-place upgrade is complete. Copy these registry backups to another location before you perform an in-place upgrade/Repair Install. You may need to use them after the in-place upgrade is complete.
It would also be a good idea to run the Files And Settings Transfer wizard F.A.S.T located on the XP CD.
If you made unorthodox registry changes with third party software, there is the potential of data loss from a Repair Install. Another consideration of concern would be a power failure during the repair install could render your system un bootable and result in loss of data.
The likelihood of you losing the files and folders is probably of minimal risk, but you have to expect the worst and make sure you are prepared for recovery.
If you are sure you have explored all other troubleshooting avenues, then proceed with the repair install.
My suggestion is, it's better to look for the source of the problem than trying to repair Windows over and over again. It might be easy to repair an unknown error but the same error could occur again because you never looked for the source.
There are so many tools to clean up and tweak your system. A repair or format is almost everytime avoidable while you can make Windows run as smooth as you want.
I'm one of an almost extinct species but my good old W2000 is running since end of 1999 without formatting or repairing.

In his April 17 letter, "Olympia takes license with 'fees'," one point Paul E. Nelson made was that new plates every seven years was a waste of money. I believe the same and not long ago I called one of our representatives. I was told that the reason we get new plates every seven years is because the Washington State Patrol requested that to happen as the reflective quality of the plates has deteriorated to the point that reading them at night is difficult.
But, I would like to point out that in the more than 20 years I lived in Alaska with really harsh road and weather conditions, I never had to replace a plate because of the reflective quality going bad. I suggest the state of Washington find out who makes the plates for Alaska and what kind of paint they use so Washington could get the same kind and save a bunch of money for us taxpayers.
Also, paying a fee every year is ridiculous. Why not every other year and save money for us that way, too.

Phoenix police arrested a man suspected of inappropriately touching a 9-year-old girl selling candy apples after identifying him through a forensic sketch.
Jose Munguia, 47, touched the girl while she was selling candy apples at her apartment complex near 51st Avenue and Indian School Road on June 21, said Sgt. Steve Martos, a Phoenix police spokesman.
Munguia reportedly approached the girl and made a purchase. The girl began to walk away and he came up behind her and indicated he had more money for her, Martos said. When the girl attempted to get away, he grabbed her and placed his hand down her shirt, police said. He then fled the scene and could not initially be located by the girl's parents, police said.
A forensic artist worked with the girl and detectives from the Crimes Against Children Unit to create a composite sketch, which later helped police identify Munguia.
On Aug. 2, the patrol officer who wrote the original police report on June 21 conducted a stop on a driver who was possibly impaired, Martos said. When he contacted the driver, later identified as Munguia, he believed Munguia matched the composite sketch.
Munguia was arrested on suspicion of DUI and booked into jail, and a follow-up was conducted on the sexual-abuse case, Martos said. The victim later identified him as the man who had touched her inappropriately, police said.
Munguia is facing sexual abuse charges, a Class 3 felony.

[1] Five Minutes With
Byline: Kristin Larson
Luis Pelayo, president and founder of the Hispanic Council.
Age: 35.
Lives in: Bensenville.
Works in: Bensenville.
Why did you found the Hispanic Council? The Hispanic Council was founded when a group of intellectuals got together and saw that there was a need for the Latino community to understand the necessary steps to become a part of the American society as a whole.
What does the foundation do? We facilitate the process of assimilation for the Latino community. Our purpose is twofold: First, we educate the new immigrants to bring them up to date as to what is expected from them - what the rules, regulations and laws are; on the other hand, we educate the rest of the community as to who we are in order to decrease the fears and ignorance that results in xenophobia.
How does the foundation succeed in this? Our interest is to work on the causes of immigration, lack of political stability, lack of jobs, lack of social justice and so forth.
What would be the ideal situation? The U.S. should demand that true democratic changes occur in countries such as Mexico, Costa Rica, Guatemala and so on. In order to stop immigration, you have to take the necessary steps to change the political process in the places that people are coming from.
What's the foundation's greatest achievement so far? The Hispanic Council has carried out a number of projects; the most successful has been the volunteer attorney project. …

Muggs Grill & Bar
REVIEWS(2)Top ▲
Unknown Business.Posted: 11/14/2013
This bar/restaurant has been in this location for approximately 10 years now. Recently under new management/ownership as of Summer 2013. I don't know about any prices on the menu or of any specials because I have never stopped by there yet. Never see any specials or deals on a sign anywhere outside of the place to draw people in. Apparently they're open at night time only, as in 5pm or so and most of the time it's an empty parking lot even when you see lights on and like 3-5 cars nearby. If they would advertise better and let people know the when, what, how & where of their place then I am sure business would increase daily. With that being said, I have on occasion seen about 35-40 vehicles outside on certain Sunday nights, so at least that's a good sign.
Come by and try the best wings in town!Updated: a month agoPosted: 7/21/2007
Muggs has great hot wings and great karaoke on Wednesday nights! They have a great menu selection of various kinds of sandwiches. Try the steak and cheese or buffalo chicken sandwich with ranch dressing. Muggs also has a great owner and bartender who love to get know new and interesting people.

Mutual Funds
One way you can diversify your international holdings is by investing in mutual funds. Mutual funds are investment products that pool capital from a number of investors and invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, money market securities or other investments.
Mutual funds are either open- or closed-ended. Open-ended funds are the most common. With this type of mutual fund, the fund continually sells shares based on consumer demand. If you decide to sell your shares, you sell them back to the fund. These mutual funds trade only once a day at the end-of-day price. In contrast, closed-end funds are more like stocks in that a fixed number of shares are issued, sold and traded over the exchanges and over the counter. Each fund's price fluctuates throughout the day, based on investor demand.
Mutual funds pay investors through income and capital gains distributions, though you have the option of reinvesting your profits to buy more shares in the fund if you own an open-end fund.
There are four types of mutual funds that invest abroad: international funds, global funds, regional funds, and country funds. International funds, which are also known as overseas funds, invest exclusively in stock or bond markets outside of the United States. Investments may be in both well-established and emerging economies or they may be concentrated in one or the other. Global funds, or world funds, invest both domestically and internationally. Despite what the name suggests, global funds typically hold 75% of their investments in the United States. Regional funds focus on a specific geographic area, like Europe or Latin America, and country funds concentrate investments in one overseas country. The majority of country funds are closed-end funds.
As with any investment, the costs and risks associated with mutual funds vary depending on the type of fund in which you're invested.
Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of mutual fund carefully before investing. A prospectus contains this and other information about the fund and is available through www.scottrade.com or through a Scottrade branch office. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing.

Vancouver's city council candidates made one thing clear Thursday evening: They all like police, fire and transportation.
But the six candidates for three positions on the seven-person city council offered different visions about how the city can best function during a candidates forum hosted by the League of Women Voters and the Vancouver Neighborhood Alliance at the Vancouver Community Library less than a week before ballots are mailed on Oct. 19.
Candidates for the Nov. 8 general election had their speeches interrupted by microphones cutting in and out, but all still managed to convey their opinions on topics from the Columbia River Crossing to fireworks before a full house in the library's community room. Local school board candidates, and 49th District Democratic Rep. Sharon Wylie and her challenger, Republican Craig Riley, also spoke.
City council challengers criticized standing council members for failing to listen to citizens and for taking on "special projects" while not prioritizing core services. Incumbents touted their track record of accomplishments and said they take citizen input into account. Candidates are elected to four-year terms that pay $21,372 a year plus health benefits.
Last to speak were the candidates in what may be the closest race, Anne McEnerny-Ogle and Bill Turlay. The two moved on from the primary vote in August when they unseated incumbent Councilor Pat Campbell for Position 6, with Turlay claiming 34.61 percent of the vote and McEnerny-Ogle taking 33.27 percent.
"It really comes down to a liberal community organizer and a conservative … businessman," Turlay, 75, told the audience of the non-partisan race. "It depends on which direction you want the city to go."
Turlay, who runs a beverage distribution company from his east Vancouver home, touted his small business experience and called for a simplification and even elimination of some rules and regulations regarding businesses. He did, however, say that impact fees on businesses are an "absolute necessity."
McEnerny-Ogle, 58, said that she'd like to find a way to phase in permitting and other startup costs to small businesses, so that they could pay over several years what they now have to pay upfront. She also called for the creation of an ombudsman position that could help those new to the system successfully start a business.
"It's very difficult to navigate the many different regulations," said McEnerny-Ogle, a retired math teacher and president of the Shumway Neighborhood Association. "We need someone to kind of help work through that system."
On fireworks, McEnerny-Ogle said she worked with the Vancouver Neighborhood Alliance to draft a proposal that sales be limited to July 3 and 4 only. Then, the issue could be put to voters. Turlay said he'd like to see a ban, noting his wife, Stephanie, who has lobbied the city council to end personal firework use, is "Mrs. Ban the Boom."
Public safety, CRC
Candidates for Position 4, Josephine Wentzel and Councilor Bart Hansen, largely covered the topics of public safety and the CRC. Both candidates said they have strong ties to and belief in public safety. Wentzel, 52, was a former police detective in Guam; Hansen, 36, is endorsed by the police and fire unions.
Wentzel, public relations director for U.S. Digital in east Vancouver, said she was motivated to run after seeing light rail and the Columbia River Crossing progress with the council's support.
"I would stop the CRC," she replied when asked what programs she would either start or end if she could. "Why are we building on a bridge that is over capacity" when at least one new bridge should instead be built on N.E. 192nd Avenue.
She pointed out that Mayor Tim Leavitt ran on opposing tolls, which means that they are a city issue. The state Legislature holds final approval of tolls, with prices set by a governor-appointed commission.
"I'm not going to sell you on something I can't deliver," Hansen replied. "Instead, I'm going to tell you what I've done."
Hansen, office services manager for Clark Public Utilities, pointed to his spearheading of a program that allows city water customers to add money to their bills, which is then used to help qualified low-income residents with their water bills. He said that he's working to help create an Elder Justice Center to fight crimes against seniors and would like to see a detective dedicated to that function.
Hansen said a ban on fireworks "is not what we need right now," but said sales should be shortened; Wentzel said she'd like to let the citizens decide.
Business fees
Mayor Pro-Tem Larry Smith and Cory Barnes also squared off, although they were largely in agreement over the need to keep business fees low.
Barnes, 24, a first-time candidate and computer store manager in Longview, said he wanted to run because he believed that citizens were being kept from a vote on the proposed extension of light rail into Vancouver as part of the CRC and to cut business regulations.
"We need a change of leadership," he said. "We need to cut services that are not needed and we need to lower impact fees."
"I have the experience, the leadership, the understanding and skills to move our city forward," said Smith, 69, pointing out that he's fought a Business and Occupation tax since he was elected to council in 2004. "The B&O tax is abusive to business."
Barnes criticized Smith for voting in favor of a tax break for developer Elie Kassab to build apartments downtown, for his support of long-range land use planning and also for Smith's support of public-private partnerships.
Smith said it was business, not government, that creates jobs and that, increasingly, specialized development agreements help owners get moving.

Great experience. Highly recommended
Excellent service by isango, definitely recommended!
The best price anywhere!!
The 3-day, 2-park ticket was just what we needed because it allowed us to hop about as we liked. To cover all the best Disneyland attractions and rides you really need 3 days.
The Disneyland Vouchers purchased from isango were received by post efficiently and without any problems. They were also very quickly exchanged with the actual tickets at the entrance booth............no trouble encountered but some sort of identification is needed. The price was not cheaper but identical to what one would pay at the Disneyland park entrance.
Very good service.

Tour was fantastic, Guide named Elvis was very good.
But directions to find tour meeting once off the ship needs to be explained better. We weren't the only ones eight other people had the same trouble. Lucky we were able to find where we had to go as it was very good. Loved seeing Dubrovnik. Worth booking with you and cost worth it.
ilianaramirez USA
My tour guide was very sweet. She knew a lot of history and was very enthusiastic to show us and explain the history. She was very good at explaining everything!
Excellent tour by a very knowledgable guide. Well worth the cost!
Tour guide was delightful. She was very knowledgeable and took time to make sure we were with her all the way. The tour office was very hard to find name on the instructions not the same as did the tour.
This was a great tour. The weather was shocking but Ivana persevered and gave us a great account of all the Dubrovnik happenings in the recent years.
She displayed a passion for her country that touched us all.
Trish Butler
The tour was well organized and our tour guide made it very interesting.
I wish I had written down the name of the excellent tour guide we had because she was outstanding. She and our driver were at the exit of the ship area with a sign waiting for us at exactly the right time. We then had a drive around Dubrovnik to see various areas and on to the Old Walled City area. As great numbers of tourists in other groups wandered around this tourist-packed area, my husband and I were so lucky to be her only tour people that day. She explained the history in an interesting way and even took us down alleyways with old graffiti written hundreds of years ago. She always tried to keep us away from the massive crowds and out of the sun. She knew interesting details about the area and we could tell that she enjoyed her job. I would highly recommend her and I'd like it if you would publish her name with this review so that others might request her. I want to also give credit to our excellent driver.
This shore excursion was fantastic. Our guide Anna was very knowledgble
This tour was perfect. The city was amazing and the tour guide (Elvis) was extremely knowledgeable and very personable. Had us laughing much of the time. As rated, it couldn't get better.
Tour guide was thorough and knowledgeable. Very Friendly We would use her again.
I wish I had only done this tour in Dubrovnik, it was the only one you needed. Great guide Ivanna. She was very knowledgable and interesting to listen to, loved learning the history of this city and country. It poured rain most of the tour but we were prepared with Umbrellas and our pull overs, Ivanna was a trouper and finished the tour anyway. Loving Croatia and the people. Thank you Ivanna!
Sohail United Kingdom
Very knowledgeable and funny tour guide
Carl H USA
Dubrovnik is a jewel. Enjoy.
the tour guide was outstanding!!!!wish I would have known about your company before booking the stupid carnival cruise tours
TANIA B Australia
Most beautiful Old Town district, I visited this town twice [one on another cruise], I could keep going back, beautiful.
Beautiful place especially the old town which is a city within the walls. Check out the beach if you have the time.
RobinP USA
This by far was the best excursion I have taken our guide was very informative and brought us great knowledge of Dubrovnik. Our whole family loved it!!!
Excellent!! Ana was terrific guide on this tour of a most beautiful city. Thank you.
Love Dubrovnik and surrounding area. Our guide could not have been better. She had a wealth of knowledge of the area and was extremely helpful answering questions both politically and historically.
A part of our tour was just for the two of us, and then we join a group of about 10 folks. We enjoyed when we could hear the tour operator tell of the history. Dubrovnik is a scenic town worth a visit.
very good to do, the city is amazing and we are very glad we did it.
Excellent excursion. Guide very knowledgeable. Nice balance of guided and free time. Have highly recommended this tour
John A USA
Great tour which ended up to be private. WOW! We enjoyed our guide and she was prompt and very courteous. She gave a detailed account of the history of Dubrovnik and small interesting tidbits of
different carvings on the walls. All very interesting!
Great tour and tour guide. Office was difficult to find as it was not clearly signed and had different company name.Clearer instructions needed to office-luckily we had someone who could point us in right direction after asking many people who didn't know where the office was.
Our guide was really bubbly and knowledgeable. Even though it was really busy walking through Dubrovnik she found alternative ways round. The tour started with a bus trip up to a good panoramic viewpoint of the city and coast. We had a couple of hours to wander on our own then either stay or get the minibus back to the ship.
A couple of things to watch out for is the information Viator provide up front.
They referred to the international port where the cruise liners dock as the "Port of Gruz", when we asked on board no one knew that was its name
More annoyingly Viator tell you to meet in the "big white building" – every building is big and white! It took us 40 minutes to find the "main terminal building" – better still would hav
Lastly the trip was excellent value, only 6 of us on it instead of the cruises 30+ and a fraction of the cost.

Mirion Said to Seek $200 Million Term Loan to Refinance Debt
Mirion Technologies Inc., a provider of radiation detection products, is seeking a $200 million term loan to refinance debt, according to a person with knowledge of the transaction.
The debt, due in six years, will pay 5 percentage points more than the London interbank offered rate, said the person, who declined to be identified because the terms are private. Libor, the rate banks say they can borrow in dollars from each other, will have a 1.25 percent floor.
Mirion is proposing to sell the loan at 98 cents on the dollar, the person said, reducing proceeds for the company and boosting the yield to investors.
Lenders are being offered one-year soft-call protection of 101 cents, meaning the company would have to pay 1 cent more than face value to refinance the debt during the first year, the person said.
Credit Suisse Group AG is arranging the financing and will host a lender meeting tomorrow at 10 a.m. in New York, the person said. The San Ramon, California-based company is also seeking a $25 million revolving line of credit.
In January 2006 American Capital Ltd. formed Mirion through a merger of its U.S. portfolio companies Global Dosimetry Solution Inc. and Imaging and Sensing Technology Corp. with its French portfolio company synOdys Group SA, according to American Capital's website.
Kimberly Croxson, a spokeswoman for Mirion, didn't immediately respond to an e-mail seeking comment.
In a revolving credit facility, money can be borrowed again once it's repaid; in a term loan, it can't.

New 9/11 Memorial
(See Correction & Amplification below .)
Firefighters and emergency-medical technicians who died of illnesses related to their service at the World Trade Center will be memorialized with a special plaque to be installed by the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, Fire Department Commissioner Salvatore Cassano announced Wednesday.
The plaque will stand parallel to the Memorial Wall of Honor at FDNY headquarters in Brooklyn, which enshrines the names of those who died while in the line of duty. According to the firefighters union, the move marks a change in the FDNY's stance on memorializing those who died of illness relating to 9/11. Union officials said they have been lobbying for years for a place on the Wall of Honor.
Mr. Cassano made the announcement during an annual memorial service that honors the members of the FDNY who died in the past year. This year, 14 members were memorialized, all of whom died as active members of the department but not while on duty. Mr. Cassano said three of them were victims of illnesses traced to their service at Ground Zero.
"In the years since Sept. 11th, we've realized that our jobs have become dangerous in ways that none of us could have ever imagined," he said.
Those who gathered for the ceremony at the Firemen's Memorial Monument on the Upper West Side, which included the families of the fallen, offered tepid applause. Initially, 24 names will be engraved into the memorial plaque which will include firefighters and emergency medical technicians, officials said.
Stephen Cassidy, president of the Uniformed Firefighters Association, said Mr. Cassano's announcement was "welcome news." He said the composition of the memorial was the subject of years of negotiation.
Mr. Cassidy said his union had asked that those names be etched on the main wall honoring line-of-duty deaths, but that request was rejected.
Mr. Cassidy noted that the NYPD two years ago added the names of police officers who died as a result of WTC illnesses to their main line of duty deaths memorial at One Police Plaza.
"I'm okay with this compromise," he said. "There needs to be a fitting memorial on a wall that recognizes those who died because of their service on 9/11."
An FDNY spokesman, Steven Ritea, said the memorial was Mr. Cassano's initiative "because he feels it's important to include these members names in an equal place of honor and in the same area where the existing memorial is."

Any recommendations for a hitch rack for an EZ Sport AX bike? The receiver is 2", car is a Prius. Thanks.
Any recommendations for a hitch rack for an EZ Sport AX bike? The receiver is 2", car is a Prius. Thanks.
Try an Alpaca Bike Rack. Google the name. I don't have the web address. These racks work great on all bikes but especially recumbents. I have a long wheel base and this rack carries the bike rock solid where most on the other racks teeter with the bike on them. They are well priced and well made. Buy direct from manufacturer. Speak to manufacturer direct as well. Great people. Small Canadian company.
Thx, Im heading down to Portland, OR to pick the bike up next week, I'll try to locate Alpaca...
Misslexi, did your Prius come with a 2 inch hitch or did you have someone custom weld it up for you? We have a Prius (2006) and they did not recommend towing anything with it and no hitch was available for it, at least at the time.
So I fabricated an aluminum and steel hitch that will accept a rack that I also wellded up out of aluminum. Works great.
I was surprised you said you had a 2 inch hitch on it. Do you mean a 2 inch reciever hitch or a 2 inch ball?

Off to the beach
Unbelizeable Belize Vacation!
We are leaving the jungle today. I don't know if I am more sad to leave this part of the trip or more excited to be on the beach. I think a little of both.
Ray has personally offered to drive us the 3 hours to Hamanasi. Time-wise, it was faster for us to drive straight there versus drive the 1 1/2 hours to Belize City, connect with internal flight and then drive another hour to the lodge. Plus I figured this was a great way to get a better feel for the country.
We head out at about 9 AM. After a stop for gas and beverages (very much like the C-stores here in the US surprisingly) we are on our way.
On your way, Ray goes through the capital of Belize, Belmopan. He shows where he and his wife first lived when they arrive in Belize. He also drives by the municipal buildings and explains a little bit about the Belizean government. I feel like we have our own personal tour guide of the country.
The rest of the drive we discuss politics in Belize, business at the lodge and how to improve it, schools in Belize and Belize's relationship with the US. It is wonderful to have such an in-depth look at the country...especially for just being on vacation.
At one point, Ray stops the truck and turns it off. We are pointing down a hill. When he shifts the truck into neutral and takes his foot off the break, we roll backwards. Yes that's right I said BACKWARDS, even though we should be heading forward based on being on a hill. Mom and I are floored! We think Ray now has some magical powers. He explains it is a magnetic field. Whatever it is, I am more in awe of this country.
When we finally arrive at the lodge, I am ready to get out of the car. We give Ray a hug as if he were family and thank him for his hospitality. He has truly given us a warm welcome to Belize.
As we are ushered to our rooms, I am surprised at how dead the lodge is. We were suppose to stay at Hamanasi next door but they were completely sold out for our dates due to Whale Shark season. Nonetheless, our room is gorgeous, we have a great view of the ocean and a nice balcony to take it all in.
Next, it is off for a beer. We are on vacation right!! We have a Belikin at the bar by the pool. The ladies that serves us makes small talk and we swamp Mom stories (her daughter is close to the same age as my son).
Since Hamanasi was not available, we will be eating most of our meals there and doing all of our excursions through them. We decide to take a tour of Hamanasi and make sure all is lined up for the week.
This is my first interaction with the staff. How wonderful! They are so kind and accommodating. We are directed to the manager who kindly gives us a tour of the lodge and explains how everything works.
After seeing the grounds and being here with the staff, I really wish Hamanasi would have had availability when we booked. It is gorgeous. Rather than clear cut everything to build the lodge, they actually tied back most of the tree branches and such to while they were in the building stages. The result is a lodge and rooms surrounded by vegetation and wildlife. As you walk from room to room you see lizards and butterflies and hear birds singing throughout. Truly paradise!
The rest of the afternoon we just hangout and relax. We decide to rent bikes and head into town. This turns out to be quite the adventure too. The lodge is about a 10 minute bike ride to town. The road is a dirt road and fairly easy to navigate. I feel like a kid biking in my hometown with my mom. Very fun.
We stumble upon a market so we can grab some snacks and drinks. I always have a difficult time in grocery stores in Latin America. They are so dark and seem so dingy compared to the US. I am very hesitant to buy my food from a poorly lit place where the food doesn't look quite as appealing.
We settle for some chips and salsa and some Kool-Aid type powder to put in our water for the next week. The lady that waits on us is Asian and I am so amazed at the diversity of the country.
Tonight we ate at Hamanasi. It is a gourmet meal complete with wine, appetizers, full course meal and dessert. Our waiter is pleasant and eager to learn more about us.
We have an after dinner drink at the bar and get to know "King" the bartender a little better. We also visit with some recently married couples on their honeymoon. After hearing the stories and the stress of the wedding, I again am happy I eloped!
Back at our room, we unwind on the portion as we take in the ocean breeze. Tonight we experience the first of many intense thunder and lightening storms.

Are you worried about what to wear and how to look stylish on Holi? Try quirky and fun hairdos and wear a pair of shorts with a loose t-shirt, says actress Nargis Fakhri while sharing handy tips to make the festival glamorous and trendy.
"I like to style my tresses with some quirky and fun hairdos. If you love your bangs or fringes then put them on the side by tying the rest of your hair in a French braid or ponytail. You can also play with gem studded clips and bands," the actress told IANS.
Even though the actress has been blessed with a flawless skin and long locks, she said it is important to "condition the hair well before one starts playing Holi".
"It is very important to give your hair a protective coat before your hair comes into contact with harmful chemicals and colour. My 20-minute deep conditioning treatment with hot coconut based hair oil is a perfect way to lock in the moisture.
"It gives the necessary nourishment and protects my hair from harmful synthetic chemicals that the colours bring with them. Also, I make sure I keep myself hydrated by sipping a lot of fresh juices and coconut water to combat the heat," said the actress who won't be celebrating Holi this year because of work.
Nargis, who debuted in Bollywood with 2011 hit movie "Rockstar", will be seen in "Main Tera Hero.
Talking about the appropriate wardrobe to play with colours, she said that comfort should be the priority.
"I like to wear my most comfortable clothes. I wear a pair of shorts with a loose t-shirt or kurta. I mostly choose a light material like cotton, so that I don't feel stuffy in the heat," she said.
After playing Holi, it is also important to unwind.
Nargis unwinds by having a "hot water shower" followed by skin care.
"The first thing I do is take a long hot water shower after returning home. After I have showered, I moisturise my skin with natural ingredient based moisturiser to combat dryness caused by the colours.
"I prefer products that provide the goodness of natural ingredients and sunscreen benefits. A hot coconut based hair oil deep conditioning treatment for 20 minutes followed by steam helps me relax and also nourishes my hair after it has faced so many chemicals in the course of the day," said the actress who loves eating Gujjiya (a special Holi dish), lot of sweets and biryani on Holi.

Bill Gates, Laptops and Confusion
On his visit to Spain, Bill Gates met the Spanish prime minister and didn't fail to lobby for Microsoft computers in schools. But lacking knowledge of Spanish regions led to some confusion and did not quite bring the attention he might have wanted.
Although he was officially in Madrid to reach some cooperation agreements between the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Spanish government, everybody was expecting Bill Gates, who met up yesterday morning with the Spanish prime minister, Jose Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, to also lobby for Windows on the laptops that are expected to be given out to Spanish students in September (for the full story see here and here). And lobby he did, although things didn't go quite as expected...
By the time Gates and Zapatero had got round to the press conference, the software mogul had forgotten the name of the region where Microsoft and Co. had run the pilot educational programme and, after a brief hesitation, he ploughed ahead just saying "a region in Spain" (see video here).
Not surprisingly, El País, Spain's biggest daily newspaper, immediately mentioned Aragón in their report of the meeting. El País has a vested interest in the project as it belongs to PRISA, a great Microsoft ally (they were also in the Aragón project) and the same holding that owns Santillana, the biggest publisher of school textbooks in Spain.
But RTVE, Spain's national public TV network, announced that Gates was referring to Extremadura. Extremadura, the poorest region in Spain, is famous for its Linux-based IT educational network, that helped it shoot from the bottom of the list of computers per student, to the top (the region has one computer for every two students, while the national average is one computer for every fifteen). Several other regional sources interpreted Gates vague praise as references to their own educational programmes.
Meanwhile the news that Gates had praised the GNU/Linux experience in Extremadura had hit Meneame, the Spanish version of Digg.
Some hours later, probably alerted by the unusual amount of traffic to the piece, somebody at RTVE noticed the "mistake" and "Extremadura" was erased from the text, to be substituted by "Aragón".

Brandon Truitt came through yet again with a single to tie the game at 8-8. Jared Herbet was intentionally walked to load the bases, but Chase Dengel's sacrifice fly to right-center sealed the game for Kindle to score from third.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

The International Intellectual Property Alliance (IIPA), a
coalition representing copyright-based industries such as the MPAA, RIAA, BSA and the ESA, submitted its
recommendations to the Bush administration in its "Special 301" review of copyright
piracy and market access problems around the world.
As they have in past years, China and Russia remain key
problem countries, but most surprising to some are the new additions the
coalition is targeting for 2007. IIPA recommends that an additional 14
countries be placed on the "Priority Watch List," joining China and Russia for a
total of 16 countries.
"Many of the key markets around the world that are infected
with high levels of copyright piracy or deny effective market access to
copyright industries," said Eric H. Smith of the IIPA. "The unwillingness of
the countries identified in our submission to curb high rates of piracy – in
most countries, through more effective and deterrent enforcement – saps the U.S.
economy of the high-paying jobs and strong growth rates that make this sector
critical to the health of the U.S. economy."
Canada is targeted as one of the biggest offenders out of
all developed nations. "Canada's long tenure on the USTR Watch List seems to
have had no discernible effect on its copyright policy. Almost alone among
developed economies in the OECD, Canada has taken no steps toward modernizing
its copyright law to meet the new global minimum standards of the WIPO Internet
Treaties," the IIPA wrote in its filing to U.S. Trade Representative Susan
Schwab. "Its enforcement record also falls far short of what should be expected
of our neighbor and largest trading partner … Canada lacks effective border controls
on pirated products, and most of its other enforcement efforts suffer from
insufficient resources and a lack of deterrent impact."
The report states that pirates have taken advantage of the
gaps in Canadian law to make it a "leading exporter" of camcorder bootleg
movies and modchips for video game consoles. Officials at Industry Canada did
not comment directly on the report, but spokesman David Dummer did say to the Globe and Mail, "The government of
Canada is working actively on the copyright file and will take the time
necessary to ensure that revisions to this important framework legislation have
been fully thought through."
The IIPA indicated that the new Canadian Conservative government
that took office in March 2006 has expressed greater commitment to
modernization of Canada's copyright laws than did the previous Liberal rule, but
to date it has not released a draft of legislation.
Steering its attentions from north to south of the U.S., the
IIPA also lists Mexico as the other sore spot in North America. Out of all estimated
total trade losses due to piracy, Mexico ranked only behind China and Russia, making
it the third highest on the priority watch list. Mexico's estimated $1 billion lost
is less than half of the losses from China and Russia, but is almost double of
Canada's fourth place $551 million.
"The sheer dimension of the piracy problem in the Mexican
market remains severe. Piracy involving hard goods, optical discs, Internet
piracy, street piracy, and unauthorized photocopying at universities continued
at high levels," the IIPA wrote.
The IIPA suggests that Mexico must focus efforts to fight
piracy in well-know street markets (San Juan de Dios in Guadalajara) and distribution
centers (such as like Tepito in the Federal District) where vast quantities of
pirated goods are sold in broad daylight. Other recommendations include: increased
resources for enforcement agencies and improved public awareness of the nature
and repercussions of rampant piracy; intensified judicial training; stronger border
measures; and stopping illegal photocopying by copy shops on or near major
university campuses.
The IIPA is not only targeting countries that are inducing
massive trade losses, the coalition is also putting priority on governments who
do not have appropriate copyright laws in place. For example, Israel ranks near
the bottom in terms of total losses at $98 million, but is on the priority list
because of the IIPA's dissatisfaction with a copyright bill passed by the
Knesset, the Israeli government's legislative body.
"The bill, if passed in its current language, would
discriminate against foreign producers of sound recordings specifically, and potentially
violate Israel's bilateral obligations to the United States. The government of
Israel should refrain from taking any steps that would weaken copyright protection,
particularly for foreign sound recordings, at a time when copyright protection is
increasingly fragile in Israel," filed the IIPA.
The IIPA finds that the bill draft does not include
provisions to protect against circumvention of technological protection
measures used to protect digital artistic works and should be rejected by the
Knesset. The IIPA also complains that the Israeli police "are not actively
pursuing Internet piracy cases and are not willing to assist in the raiding of
Internet pirates."
Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Egypt,
India, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine and Venezuela are the other
countries named in the IIPA's Priority Watch List.
quote: Piracy has the same effect, but at least then the people doing the pirating are legally wrong.
quote: They should do the same thing for sports cars also. That way you could buy a Ferrari in China for $99.
quote: If you think that's trivial, I wonder how you'd react to someone using your car or your own without your permission.
quote: If they manufacture products using my patents, they compete with companies who DO pay patent license fees. And that means less sales for them, which translates to less royalties for me.
quote: Very simply. Because you don't want to respect the rights of property ownership.
quote: And when you buy software or a CD, you agree to the terms of the sale as well. Which includes a prohibition against unauthorized copying.
quote: If you develop a hot new technology and patent it, you have a real, tangible value
quote: If someone infringes upon that patent, you have suffered a loss
quote: Also by saying that using a person's property without permission was acceptable, as long as they weren't themselves trying to use it at the time.
quote: A future expectation of value is real value. If you lose it, you've suffered a loss.
quote: You said theft of a car was only wrong because it deprived you of its use. That certainly implies that its ok to borrow your car without permission, as long as you're not using it at the time.
quote: But neither he, nor anyone else here, has succesfully explained why stealing a car, damaging it, then returning it is different in essence to the theft of IP. In both cases you still retain the original property...but that property has been damaged by the theft.
quote: Now if you try to copy that car's design or engineering, you'll instantly be sued, and rightly so. There is no real difference between the industries.
quote: Err, that's not making a copy, that's buying a copy...one piece at a time. The price for each piece has both manufacturing and IP costs built into it.
You can do the same thing with albums also. Buy them, one song at a time.
quote: Also, there's a technic in marketing (i don't recall the name right now :( ) that has as it's objective to create an uneeded thing become needed, by convincing people that they need something they don't need. And, well, all companies use this to sell their items, as most things we use aren't really needed...

quote: Bet you still watch their movies, and listen to their songs though.
quote: And yet artists still agree to those contracts. And get stinking rich while doing so. Sometimes they even get stinking rich off an album that the label lost millions on. What does that tell you?
quote: The argument that its ok to steal music because the artist receives only a small share of the revenues is inherently flawed.
quote: You can still "speak out" while not pirating (or even buying) RIAA-label music. In fact, you'll have even more time to do so.
quote: And if you really hate the RIAA so much, you should listen to only those artists. Is a little self-sacrifice so hard to justify your principles?
quote: When you haven't paid for that slice of cake, it becomes a problem. And the response to the RIAA and the MPAA isn't just "asking for a little less sugar".
quote: It's more akin to beating with a baseball bat the waitress who served it to you.
quote: The entire concept of ownership implies control over usage. If I own a car, I decide who gets to use it, and how. If I own a video, I decide who gets to watch it, and how.
quote: The entire concept of ownership implies control over usage. If I own a car, I decide who gets to use it, and how. If I own a video, I decide who gets to watch it, and how.
quote: The availability of software enables people to get educated. It creates a market for them. Also that's where companies today tend to offer educational licenses. Something piracy has enabled people for years...
quote: Now Vista is easier to less since people are already used to MS OS and how it works.
quote: The report states that pirates have taken advantage of the gaps in Canadian law
quote: "The sheer dimension of the piracy problem in the Mexican market remains severe.
quote: These folks know they are stealing and they should be fined $10,000 per copy and imprisoned for a minimum of one year. Then maybe they'll grow some respect for law and order, but not likely.
quote: Why? You didn't buy a song, you bought a copy of a song, in a particular format. If you don't like the restrictions placed by the owner...just don't deal with them. Simple.
quote: There are hundreds of labels out there struggling to make money. Many of them are losing money on albums...which is something an artist never has to risk. Sure some labels make big money. Some musicians are worth a billion dollars also. What does that prove exactly?
quote: A few poorly-educated and badly-disciplined kids, with no jobs, no name, and probably a large set of emotional and/or drug problems?
quote: Well even though you ignored all my points

Thunder: Quite a night for the OKC crowd
Quite a night for Oklahoma City. A playoff series victory over Denver in the most dramatic of fashion. Kevin Durant's heroics. Serge Ibaka's blocks. Kendrick Perkins even dunked.
I sat on press row, right behind the scorer's table, so I had a great seat, but that doesn't mean I had the best view to experience all the atmosphere, during the game and after.
I went to a really good source for that. A better source than the crazy fans who dress up and live and die with the Thunder. A better source than Rumble. A better source than Clay Bennett.
My wife. Trish the Dish bought two $47 tickets and sat on Row J in Section 311. She took our niece, another big Thunder fan. I went to visit in pre-game but couldn't stay long. The upper deck gives me the willies; I don't have a fear of heights, I have a fear of falling.
Anyway, I got home at 2 a.m., so it wasn't until this morning that I was able to conduct a serious interview on what the night was like. Here is her report.
First, she reported no disgruntledness from the crowd. Down below, you could sense a feeling of unrest. But no booing. Few groans. A little frustration when no one but Durant could make a shot. Apparently, it was the same upstairs. "I didn't hear any complaining or yelling at the team," Trish the Dish said. "It was positive. More of a cheering you on type of thing."
After the game, the fans stayed for several minutes cheering. "I kept thinking, 'is somebody going to come out and do something?' because everyone was staying in their seats," she said.
Walking down the concourse of the arena sounded cool, too. The Thunder drummers were set up, pounding away, and the fans chanted "OKC! OKC!" just like they did after those Laker games last year.
Fans had their cell phones in the air, videoing the scene. Once outside, the mass of people didn't dissipate. The crowd gathered around the TV stage, where Kelly Crull and the crew were about to stage a post-game show.
Trish the Dish had parked just off Reno, east of the railroad tracks. At the stoplight by the Courtyard, the fans still were chanting. Car horns began honking, some to the rhythm of that "clap, clap-clap, clap your hands" chant.
Going under the railroad bridge on Reno, fans started walking in the street instead of the sidewalk, going between the cars, and no one seemed to mind. People were hanging out of their cars yelling and screaming.
All after the first of what could be four playoff series.
