The City of Palms: A Beginner's Guide To Fort Myers
A subtropical climate, innumerable beaches, outdoor activities aplenty and a fair dose of history: there's no arguing that Fort Myers is a standout destination for those looking to holiday in Florida. Less hectic than Tampa or Miami but with enough culture to keep visitors entertained, Fort Myers, which is often twinned with neighbouring Cape Coral, offers the perfect compromise for those seeking both a natural retreat and a city escape. If you're planning an upcoming trip, read on for our beginner's guide to the City of Palms for some sun-drenched travel inspiration.
Located on the southwestern side of the Florida peninsula, Fort Myers was first founded in 1886. The city began life as a small fort, but it wasn't long before the area's beauty and tranquillity attracted flocks of visitors. The Royal Palm Hotel, which opened its doors to guests in 1898, became a fast favourite of the well-to-do. Fort Myers was evidently also popular amongst celebrated inventors: Henry Ford and Thomas Edison famously spent their winters here, and the two friends built estates that are next door to one another. Visitors today can tour the facilities, and even poke around Edison's old laboratory.
Warm all year round (the average temperature is a balmy 29˚C), Fort Myers is ideal for those seeking to spend most of their holiday outdoors. There are as many ways to soak up the rays here as there are sunny days. No matter your agenda, it's recommended that you pack a fair few bathing suits in your suitcase.
The area around the city is home to over 100 coastal islands. These range from the small and remote to the more accessible. Sanibel and Captiva Islands are the two best-known, and with their powdery beaches, verdant stretches of palm trees, bike paths, and water sports offerings, they have the hallmarks of a the perfect day trip. Estero Bay is even home to the incredible Mound Key Archaeological State Park, which houses Native American artefacts dating back more than 2,000 years.
After a few solid days of beach-bumming, visitors should also make sure they take advantage of Fort Myers' rich nature, including the mangrove ecosystems to be found in the area. A number of chartered companies let visitors boat through the aquatic forests, with fishing-specific trips a popular option. Those who take their fishing especially seriously can also embark on a deep sea fishing charter. Reel Fish N Sea is a reliable operator; the company also teaches diving lessons and hosts beach outings.
Once the sun sets, the city's bustling nightlife heats up. Locals and visitors flock to venues like the Twisted Vine Bistro. Located in the city's historic river district, the restaurant's eclectic offerings include local specials like pan-seared Florida snapper with spicy lobster sauce. Bars like The Firestone also draw plenty of visitors: the four-storey complex houses a Martini bar, sky bar, and grille room. And for those who like to wash down a beachy day with a frosty beer, the open-air World of Beer has more than 500 craft brews available.
Of course, that's only the tip of the iceberg. From some of the country's best golf courses to family-friendly museums like the Imaginarium, from pick-your-own citrus groves to hiking trails aplenty, the only problem when it comes to visiting Fort Myers is fitting everything in!

Burns baby Burns
25 January 2007 by Sam
Here's a bit of trivia to impress your whisky drinking chums with when you're out celebrating Burns night. If you ask most people for 3 facts about Robert Burns, they would probably tell you that he was Scottish, he was a poet and he has a night held in his honour every year to celebrate his birthday. But did you know that he worked as an Excise Officer?
In 1789 Burns was appointed Excise Officer in Dumfries. His job was to gauge the vessels used by brewers and other traders in the manufacture of liquors on which Excise duty was charged and to charge the duty on the liquors when manufactured. A very conscientious officer, Burns was selected for promotion to supervisor, the official in charge of an excise district, but unfortunately died before he could take up his post. Read more…

You'd think that after returning from an adventure like that he'd just want to stay at home with a warm mug of cocoa, or tick off the 'visit south pole' box on his travel wish list and start planning a cruise round the Caribbean to thaw out. He obviously wasn't the sunbathing type though, as he led several more expeditions to the Antarctic after this. Read more…
Winter weather on the website
11 December 2006 by Sam
It's cold outside, so the latest online exhibition to grace the National Museums Liverpool website is on the theme of winter weather.
As always the online exhibition draws on items from different venues, many of which are not usually on public display. This time we've got exhibits and animals from some of the coldest places on the planet, plants traditionally associated with Christmas and the perfect teapots to make a warming cuppa on a cold day, to name just a few.

Beatles online exhibition
25 August 2006 by Sam
This weekend thousands of Beatles fans will make a pilgrimage to Liverpool for the International Beatles Week and Mathew Street Festival. Some may find their way to the Walker Art Gallery to see Stuart Sutcliffe's Hamburg Painting No 2.
You might not know this but there are lots of other Beatles related objects in National Museums Liverpool's collections, which are not currently on display at any of our venues. So for the first time the highlights, including items from the collections of the Customs and Excise Museum and the Museum of Liverpool, have been brought together for an online Beatles exhibition.

Sniffer dogs – spot the difference
24 August 2006 by Sam
Today I encountered two very different sniffer dogs at the Customs and Excise Museum.
Two of our roleplayers, dressed as the larger-than-life characters Smugglebuster the customs officer and Sniffer the dog, were greeting visitors to the museum.
Outside I met the real deal – customs officer Claire Dewhirst with her sniffer dog, who were at the museum today doing demonstrations for the public.
If you missed today's demonstrations then you have another chance to see a real sniffer dog at the museum next Thursday. Read more…
Mersey Vice?
2 August 2006 by Sam
I expect I'm not the only woman who's counting the hours until Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx return to the big screen in Miami Vice. The film, like the 1980s TV series before it, follows two undercover cops on the trail of arms and drug traffickers.
If you can't wait to see the film you could always pop along to the Customs and Excise Museum in the Albert Dock to see the real stories of how customs officers in this country protect society from smuggling. Read more…
Sniff out a sniffer dog at the Customs & Excise Museum
27 July 2006 by Sam

Hi Ladies,
I'm 4w5d today with baby #2 and for the last half hour or so I'm experiencing a mild/dull ache in my uterus I believe. Not sure what it is exactly. It's severe enough for me to call my doctor, but I'm somewhat nervous. No blood or spotting.
Advice? Should I call?

Small newspaper is of great importance in Oklahoma
MANGUM — Let's say you call the Mangum Star-News and Casey Paxton answers.
You won't get transferred if you ask for the city or county beat writer, sports writer, photographer, the person who picks up the paper from the printer at Shamrock, Texas, or takes this weekly newspaper to stores or to the post office. Casey's got those areas covered.
As for the titles of editor and publisher, those are shared by Casey and wife, Karla. Both raised in the Mangum area, sold their newspaper, the Cheyenne Star, in the summer of 1999 and purchased the Mangum Star-News.
The Star-News has a print circulation of about 1,650. They also attract readers online, he said.
National Newspaper Week is Sunday through Saturday. Among Oklahoma's newspapers are 140 weekly newspapers, according to the Oklahoma Press Association.
The Mangum Star-News — 50 cents for a single copy and $28 for an annual subscription within Greer County — is an example of a weekly newspaper and its importance to the community.
Mangum is the county seat, and with about 3,000 people accounts for roughly half of Greer County's population. This paper was established in 1887.
"Weekly newspapers are the original social network," said Mark Thomas, executive vice president of the Oklahoma Press Association. "In most of these towns they still are the place where people really can find out what's going on.
"When you're in these smaller towns of course you know everybody and everybody knows you. They're very important to the life of a small town."
The news
Coincidentally this year, Valentine's Day fell on Thursday, publication day for the Mangum Star-News.
So although the front page included news such as "New Tests Show Nitrate Levels Safe in Mangum Water" along the top was the "2013 Mangum Star-News Little Miss and Mr. Valentine" winners and the "2013 Little Miss and Mr. Critter" winners. Inside the paper were photos and bios including the names of family members of "Valentine Princesses and Princes 2013." There were also additional pet pictures and bios on another page.
The Mangum Star-News was the source for the "48th Annual Rattlesnake Derby" in April, the Mangum High School graduation and the "102nd MHS Alumni Celebration Activities" in May, and the "81st Annual Mangum Mountie Rodeo" and the "Wild West Days" celebration in June.
"The Rattlesnake Derby will bring in thousands of people a year, which is a lot of fun," Casey said.
The next month brings graduation and the alumni activities that span nearly a week. There's breakfast, barbecue, banquets, a dance, parades, golf tournaments "and lots, lots more."
"There will be several hundred people come for that week," Casey said. "We go all the way back. We've had some who are a 100 years old.
"The month after the alumni association events we have the Mangum Mounties rodeo."
A variety of local news fills the pages of the newspaper throughout the year: car accidents, grass fires, book fairs, city and county government, legal notices, births, obituaries, the Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Service column, nearby community information and "Tiger Talk, News from Mangum Upper and Lower Middle Schools."
"Mangum is truly blessed to have people like Casey and Karla who care so much about our kids and the school system," said Micky Lively, superintendent of Mangum Public Schools. "The Mangum Star-News helps to promote every event that occurs at our school, whether it is academics or extra curricular activities. Casey is always there taking pictures and cheering for our students."
Casey, 60, said he loves his job in part because, "I love putting people's names in the paper because I want to encourage people, especially young people."
"I honestly love what I do for a living," Casey said. "You're trying to find all of the information. That puts you in contact with a lot of people."
Meet the staff
The newspaper has a staff of five — counting the miniature pinscher.
In addition to Casey, Karla types in items and does the billing. Their daughter, Tonya Paxton, the office manager, is in charge of advertising and special features and types in information as well. Her daughter, Renee J. Paxton, 12, writes a "Kid's Korner" column and places inserts in the paper. Renee's column often includes history, dance and "doing fun stuff" with her mother such as playing cards or watching DVDs of old movies or sitcoms.
"She's been writing a weekly article since she was 8 and she has quite a following," Casey said. "She gets more letters than I do. She wants to be a ballerina and she has ballet a few nights a week over at Clinton."
The fifth member of the staff, Casey and Karla's dog, Hershey Kiss Paxton, is about 5 months old and has an "Adopt A Pet" column.
"We rescued her from the dog pound and she started writing about five weeks ago," Casey said. "We just fell in love with her and decided a column was the best way to help other animals."
Hershey's Sept. 19 column read, "I am in the process of training my dad. Dogs are good at training people to pick up their clothes every night. If you don't want me to carry your underwear through the house while you're entertaining visitors then put them in the hamper."
Following such canine wisdom are photos and information about her "friends" who are in need of homes.
Career change
Casey and Karla moved to Cheyenne in 1982 where he became music director at the First Baptist Church. In 1987, "I just kind of wanted to change things up." That's when they bought the Cheyenne Star.
"I was just trying to change careers and we liked the town," he said. "I love to work hard. So I just dove in and started doing it."
Given the opportunity in 1999, Casey and Karla bought the Mangum Star-News. They moved home.
Knowing everyone
The Mangum Star-News is across the street from the Greer County courthouse. The newspaper office is on the lower level of the two-story building at 120 South Oklahoma. While some who come in are doing so for the first time, most faces are familiar.
That can get complicated, especially when it comes to legal issues. It's then that Casey doesn't like putting people's names in the paper, but knows what he has to do.
"There are stories that I don't like to write because it involves friends of mine," Casey said. "But if I'm going to keep my integrity I've got to.
"I've said, 'Look I'm sorry that's the way it is and I've got to do it. Whether we have a relationship after this, that's entirely up to you, but it's got to go in.'"
But there's plenty to offset the tough days.
"I've known a lot of these people all my life," Casey said. "I like knowing the people in town and doing what I can."

Many times people try to flash a new BIOS in their motherboard which fails and thus the motherboard seems to be dead. This mostly happens in the dual BIOS motherboard. Actually you can retrieve the dead motherboard back from the dead to get it working properly. I have a Gigabyte EP45-UD3P which when I tried to update BIOS with a new version failed. It was dead for a long time until I figured out a way to get it back to life. All you need is working BIOS files, small tweezers which can hold small wires, soldering machine. Actually the problem that I have described happened on my Gigabyte EP45-UD3P when I was updating BIOS and the installation failed in some block. I restarted the computer only to find that it is not detecting RAM.
At this point, my motherboard would fail to read the improperly installed BIOS in it and would try to recover the previous version of BIOS that is stored in the secondary BIOS chip. I had tried to disable the primary BIOS chip so that the motherboard would load BIOS from the secondary chip, but even this process failed to work on my Gigabyte EP45-UD3P. Actually, this processor has two BIOS chips on it. But making the secondary chip to act as primary chip is not possible. So I found a way around using which we can make the secondary BIOS chip to act as primary chip. We can solder the pin number 4 from secondary chip with the pin number 7 of the primary chip for the secondary chip to load the BIOS during startup. You need to connect the pins using a wire and create a button or some setting using which you can disable the connection.
After doing this once, the primary chip will detect the problem in itself and get data from the secondary chip to restore the working version of BIOS. To do this, when the PC starts, hold the connector or button you have created. The startup will take more time than usual and wait for the memory test and welcome screen to show up and proceed to main system. As soon as the welcome screen goes away, release the switch or connector for the wire. At this moment, the primary BIOS chip will detect that it cant handle the working of the system and will recover the working BIOS from secondary chip.
I hope this helps you to get your dead motherboard working again as it should.

I'm going to be doing my first organized century for the LIVESTRONG Challenge in September and am just curious as to what long distance riders use for typical gearing.... other than you crazy fixed/SS folks out there ... I've done 60 mile flat rides with a mile 8.5% grade climb at the end no problem and I'm running a 38/46 cyclocross crank with an SRAM 12-26 cassette.
I'm sure it depends on the course itself (duh), but what have others experienced for as a typical course, especially for these charity type rides? The route isn't posted yet for the ride I'm going to be doing unfortunately. I'm not really concerned about it... I'm my biggest competition and stuff like this drives me to better myself... I'm just curious as to what other's have seen and what kinds of gearing they've used.

Princesas Group
Celia is 57 years old, married and she has 2 children, male and female, both adult. She has a grocery store. She is asking for a loan in order to buy soap, sugar, oil, soups, toilet paper, eggs, rice, soft drinks, chiles preserved in vinegar, and sweets. She began her business 8 months ago with a loan. Her business is important because it helps her buy food. She likes this business and feels useful. She likes serving her customers well so they return to her store. She feels happy to to see that her products are selling and she has income to buy food.
She is happy with the loan that she is going to receive because she is going to buy merchandise in order to expand her business and give better service to her customers. Her dreams and hopes are that the business grows and that her family is happy and healthy. The members of the group want to say thank you to Kiva and the Fundación Realidad: "thank you for your loans, we hope that you continue helping with loans for the growth of the businesses."
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee.

Skip to comments.FOX NEWS: SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION BAN
Posted on 04/18/2007 7:14:49 AM PDT by SpiffEdited on 04/18/2007 8:48:59 AM PDT by Lead Moderator. [history]
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court upheld the nationwide ban on a controversial abortion procedure Wednesday, handing abortion opponents the long-awaited victory they expected from a more conservative bench.
The 5-4 ruling said the Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act that Congress passed and President Bush signed into law in 2003 does not violate a woman's constitutional right to an abortion.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
AP reporting 5-4 decision, Kennedy came over.
Bush appointees. So how are they for a legacy?
Best news in a few days!
we won this battle, the war continues...
Excellent news.
Clinton vetoed the ban (which Rudy supported) and Bush signed it.
Bush's judges were the difference in upholding the ban.
Don't want to be greedy, but one more would be nice. Stevens has been on the edge of leaving for the past two years now.
Best news? More like the only good news. ;)
Big news
And Sandra Day wasn't there, either.
Kennedy apparently was upset over being misled by the majority when he voted with them in Casey years ago.
long time no-see
Thank God for President Bush. This would never have happened without his SC appointees.
Great news Spiff.
Best news in a few days!
Wonderful News!
It has long been my belief that if the "right" opinion on the "right" case to overturn Roe v. Wade came along that Kennedy would vote to overturn.
5-4 decision. These decision are just too close. This is why it's so important we nominate a conservative for president in 08 and not compromise on a moderate or liberal just because they are more popular with the media.
Correct, and the tide seems to be turning. A big-time victory.
Great news! Thanks for the post!
Unfortunately, it will take a lot more than this one instance to convince me that Kennedy has changed. Important to note that this decision outlaws a procedure, and not the overall "right" to have an abortion.
Still, another chip in the armor.
The opinion on this one will be interesting. Did Kennedy write for the majority?
Praise God!!! Thank you President Bush!
This is great news!
Please FReepmail me if you would like to be added to, or removed from, the Pro-Life/Pro-Baby ping list...
5 - 4 vote equals big time fund raising, for the Party of Rats ...
Yes, he wrote for the majority.
Yes, he wrote for the majority.
Praise God! And thank you GWB and our Republican Congress who made this happen.
Outstanding! Thank you President Bush!
Dissenters Stevens, Ginsburg, Suter, Breyer?
Thank you, Jesus! :*)
Roe v. Wade Overturned, coming soon to a SCOTUS near you!!!
We can thank the Presient for his SC appointees!
But 5-4 is still too close, we need a couple more.
Do you consider Bush a Conservative?
You damn skippy!
Thanks for posting and Praise the Lord!
This is why we need a TRUE, PRO-LIFE PRESIDENT! No pretender will do, and certainly NOT a pro-abortion president.
Rudy Giuliani will NOT cut it!
The SCOTUS can make a difference when it comes to abortion.
Thanks to pro-life Presidents Reagan, Bush41 and Bush43 the band on PBA is upheld. Thank God.
Maybe J.Kenendy is having second thoughts on his pro-choice position.
Thanks be to God.
Thank You Dear Lord.
God Bless the judges and President Bush.
Right is right.
Haven't heard why Kennedy would have a change of heart on this issue. Any links where I can read up?
Next president WILL appoint a justice. There will probably be a democrat majority in congress. So we need a solid conservative who won't be inclined to let the democrats pick which "strict constructionist" to appoint.
Rudy has shown that when there are obstacles in place to appointing good conservative justices, he is happy to go along with those obstacles so long as the justice meets his definition of "fair and honest", which according to Rudy includes finding that Roe is settled law.
I held my nose and voted for Bush in the last election - its finally paying off ...
Too bad for Rudy Giuliani.
Can't wait till he explains this.
"I supported Clinton's veto of the partial birth ban. But I also support the decision to uphold the ban by Roberts and Alito."
Alito and Roberts make the majority.
GWB made the right choices.
And those giving for this purpose will be just reaping their coals in anticipation of the afterlife.

How the risk of death among U.S. troops in Iraq varies by rank, service and other factors, according to a new University of Pennsylvania...
WASHINGTON — How the risk of death among U.S. troops in Iraq varies by rank, service and other factors, according to a new University of Pennsylvania analysis:
• The death rate for deployed Marines in Iraq is 8.59 per thousand per year, more than twice that of the Army, nine times that of the Navy and 20 times that of the Air Force. Navy and Air Force personnel serving in Iraq have lower death rates than comparable civilians at home.
• Enlisted personnel in the Army and Marines are significantly more likely to be killed than officers. Army privates first class and Marine lance corporals have the highest risks in their services; lieutenants have the highest risks among Marine and Army officers.
• Active-duty Army death rates are three times those of Army Reserves; the National Guard is in the middle. Marine active-duty and reserve risks are equally high.

Most Read Stories
• Older troops, women and African Americans are killed at lower rates; Hispanics, Native Americans and Asian and Pacific Islanders at higher rates.
• The Iraq troop-death rate overall is less than half the death rate for the U.S. civilian population when all ages are included.
The study, co-authored by demographers Samuel Preston and Emily Buzzell, is reported in the September issue of the journal Population and Development Review.

Another no-brainer...Where are our brilliant elected officials in Washington going to help create jobs. The next major growth industry in the US is natural gas. This is not a question of if, it is only a question of when. And as we progress in the future with liquification facilities on the Sabine Pass the demand for and price of natural gas will go significantly higher. Certainly one of the leaders in the industry is CHK, which by the way has a book value significantly higher than the current price. This stock could easily double or more in the next three years.
The stock dropped because of the real news of the write downs of $2.06 Billion..... Not good at all!
And the $2B in write-downs is just the beginning of CHK write-downs...And add the newest CHK $2B loan to lower the 8+% interest on previous loan...Then add the "Costs, Management/Admin. Fees, Etc." Bankers collect for each and every CHK "loan," "re-loan," "bridge-loan," "limited-partnership fees/payments,"volumetric production payments/fees," etc. etc. etc.
Add lawsuits, investigations, obese balance sheet/off balance sheet problems...And much more debt to unload...
Now get the BIG Picture...
They don't really run a publicly-traded, Stockholder-owned Corporation...They run the same CHK that McClendon started privately...A private equity conglomerate for those who created the debt...
And the funding is provided by CHK leased and unleased mineral owners all across U.S. who are gouged and underpaid by this conglomerate each and every day from their mineral estates.
Happy Post Halloween... Trick or Treat???
natural gas is a long term investment, I'm getting in on this... Canada has said if they can get the keystone built, they will export to china. Natural gas is the next energy boom and the price will rise as we turn natural gas into gasoline. the oil price supports that engineering.
Excellant quarter. The loss was driven by a non-cash impairment charge so no big deal. As a CPA and former CFO, I can tell you that the accountants are constantly pushing impairment analysis and most CFOs are fine taking the charge and cleaning up the books in times of stock lethargy (makes for cleaner books in future periods).

Walking down the streets of D.C., it's hard to see anyone who doesn't have a smart phone in their hands.
"I use it all the time, I love it," said smartphone user Jennifer Francois.
But is it all too much? Are we obsessed with our phones...or even addicted? Some mental health experts say yes.
"I believe it's very real," said Dr. Gregory Jantz, the author of #Hooked.
Dr. Jantz is Executive Director of a mental health treatment facility outside of Seattle. He also authored #Hooked: The Pitfalls of Media, Technology and Social Media, and says that based on his research, the addiction is very real.
"About 60 percent of us Americans say that if we're not connected to our devices we develop anxiety symptoms," Jantz said.
The medical term is disconnect anxiety. The symptoms? Sweaty palms, insomnia, dizziness and depression.
It didn't take long to find local people who say they know this feeling all too well.
"It wasn't even lost I just didn't know where it was. It's like a small child. You almost panic for a second then you find it," said smartphone user Lauren Lewis.
"I left my phone for a matter of an hour and I just didn't feel right. It was a sense of helplessness almost. Like you need it," said smartphone user Rahn Johnson.
Dr. Jantz says most people check their iPhone, Blackberry or Driod an average of 34 times a day.
"We found one individual who came to us for help was doing six to seven thousand texts a day," Dr. Jantz said.
"I don't know percentage wise, but I would be 100percent lost without it. That's for sure," Francois said.
Francois knows she's probably missing some valuable human interaction...but says the benefits of her smartphone outweigh the negatives.
Her mother feels otherwise.
"I see people sitting in a restaurant each person is on their smart phone," said Terri Malolepsy, adding "I think it's gotten a little bad."
Like any other addiction, Dr. Jantz says disconnect anxiety affects can affect you both at work and at home. He suggests users take a break to detox one day a week - he says it's about controlling your phone, not letting your phone control you.
