Home truths
- The bedrooms at Eastwell are traditionally furnished, in keeping with the general style of the manor house. Although luxurious, they might not be quite as appealing to those that usually prefer a more contemporary style.
- The mews rooms away from the main house, whilst fine for business travellers didn't give the true Eastwell experience that we felt our clients would prefer.
- The golf course is 9 holes, and a fun challenge, though not meant to be of a championship quality or standard.

More information about this loan
This loan is part of a CrediCampo project to help rural farmers living in extreme poverty plant basic grains to feed their families. Excess product is sold on the local market.

NEW YORK – The March 11 killer tsunami that hit the Tohoku coast following the magnitude 9.0 earthquake and the subsequent Fukushima nuclear reactor meltdowns revealed the fragility of Japan's infrastructure, according to a recent U.N. report on natural disasters.
The report describes Japan as a country whose infrastructure collapsed in a way more closely associated with less-developed countries and from which lessons can be drawn.
"The earthquake, its aftershocks, the tsunami and the nuclear emergency illustrate what a synchronous failure looks like: a multisectoral system's collapse," says the 2011 Global Assessment Report on Disaster Risk Reduction.
It also describes how the disaster disrupted "critical sections" of Japan's power grid, including the power supply needed to cool the spent fuel at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant, and how backup systems were disabled, thereby resulting in the worst atomic disaster since Chernobyl in 1986.
"The full consequence of the trauma and costs will not be known for years to come," the report says. "However, in the immediate aftermath of the disaster, it became evident that even in this highly sophisticated and well-prepared society, the impact of physical hazards on infrastructure can quickly lead to outcomes normally associated with poorer countries: large-scale food and water shortages, shelter crises and logistical collapse."
The 2011 floods in Australia, the earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand, earlier this year and Japan's latest disaster serve as a "reminder that developed countries are also very exposed," the report says.
The March 11 disaster additionally highlighted that there are "emerging risks and new vulnerabilities associated with the complexity and interdependency of the technological systems on which modern societies depend," it says.
The Great Hanshin Earthquake caused more than 6,000 deaths in 1995. As 80 percent of the deaths were found to have occurred in collapsed houses, efforts have been under way to make new buildings earthquake resistant. Many of the victims were trapped alive, only to die in the fires that raged unchecked due to broken water mains.
In 2003, a major retrofitting initiative was launched to reduce the vulnerable housing stock by 10 percent by 2013, with two-thirds of the cost of evaluating and 23 percent of the retrofitting costs for buildings constructed before 1981 subsidized by the government, the report says.
Despite the offers, since 2009 only 31,000 homes and 15,000 other buildings had been retrofitted — far less than the 50,000 to 60,000 homes retrofitted before the program began.
"So despite a well-targeted and generous set of policy measures and subsidies, and a high awareness of disaster risk, persuading households to invest in disaster risk reduction remains a challenge," it says.
Despite Japan's level of preparedness, which undoubtedly saved many lives, the report says governments are "rarely adequately prepared" through contingency planning or insurance to "cover the probable maximum losses from a low-probability intensive event."
While the mortality rates from disasters have been going down, disaster-related losses are increasing across all regions. They are critically threatening low- and middle-income economies and even outstripping the wealth creation among richer countries.
Although the chances of being killed in a cyclone or floods in East Asia, for example, are much lower now than two decades ago, the risk of economic loss due to floods has increased by more than 160 percent and to tropical cyclones by 262 percent since 1980 in the high income countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
"As the March 2011 nuclear crisis in Japan shows, governments should also invest time and resources in anticipating emerging risks," the report says.

I have an issue on one of my machines where some Explorer toolbar customizations such as no text labels and especially displaying one additional toolbar (PrivBar) simply will not "stick". Most of the time I cannot even get the additional toolbar to display at least temporarily. Other times it works but is lost again when I reboot or sometimes even as soon as I open another Explorer window (the option to open Explorer windows in a separate process is activated so I can use RunAs).
Other customizations such as using small button images and which buttons to show in the first place are working fine.
This particular machine is an HP DC5800 box with an OEM version of XP Pro (German). I never had this problem on any of the machines that I set up from scratch.
This does not appear to be a permissions problem either as it also doesn't work for the admin account (which I'm not using for regular work).
I haven't been able to identify any relevant errors while logging the customization attempts with ProcessMonitor.
Any ideas?

How to Save Money for Your First Home
Saving money does not have to be difficult as long as you follow a few simple rules.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Create a budget: write down how much money you bring home each month; write down the payment amounts for each of your monthly bills; subtract your expenses from your income to determine how much extra money you have each month.
2Save as much of your extra money as possible in an interest-earning savings account. Look for an account with the highest interest rate.
3Curb your spending. When you go shopping, ask yourself if you really need the item you are thinking of buying. If you don't need it, don't buy it. Put the money into your savings account instead. Remember that small amounts of money can combine and become large amounts of money.
4Find ways to cut costs: bring your lunch to work instead of buying it; bargain shop at the grocery store; rent a movie instead of going to the theater.
5Each time you are tempted to spend money on something other than a necessity, remind yourself that you are delaying the purchase of your first home by doing so. If it is not worth it, don't do it.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Post your budget in a visible place where you'll be sure to see it every day. That will help you remember your goal.
- If you are married or in a relationship, make sure to agree on a plan with your partner. If you work together, it will be easier to reach the goal.
- Tell your friends and family that you are trying to cut back on spending to save for a home. Ask them not to tempt you by inviting you to spend money with them.

AMP Capital Fishes in Troubled Waters
By Shani Raja
The global economy may sometimes appear on the verge of imploding, but that hasn't stopped Australian fund manager AMP Capital from fishing around for deals in troubled waters.
The words "Europe" and "debt" don't often sit well together these days, but this firm at least seems to be marrying them quite effectively.
The company says its Infrastructure Debt Fund has just managed to complete a third round of financing with – among others – a batch of U.K. institutional investors, the latest being East Riding of Yorkshire Council Pension Fund.
Its boldness appears to be paying off. The firm says the third close raised 284 million euros, which includes some financing from Japanese investors. AMP Capital claims the debt vehicle's fundraising drives have consistently outperformed, and that the fourth close will aim to attract more Japanese as well as U.S. contributors.
"The current market environment is presenting attractive new investment opportunities and investor interest remains strong," according to Andrew Jones, Global Head of Infrastructure Debt at the firm.
It may be the focus on lower-risk investments that makes the fund so appealing in these uncertain times. It appears to be targeting its lending to traditionally safe companies in economically advanced countries that provide "essential services" such as water, gas, electricity and public transport.
The debt fund recently scored its first U.S. lending deal, a $20 million high-yielding loan to a clean-energy-generation company that owns wind farms. But it's not averse to fishing in murky waters more literally – according to AMP Capital, the fund has invested 39.2 million pounds in the subordinated debt securities of, wait for it, a major U.K. sewage company.

Vt. apartments evacuated, police suspect drug labMarch 05,2013WINOOSKI Police in Winooski say a domestic abuse complaint triggered the evacuation of some tenants in an apartment complex after officers suspected there was a drug lab in a bedroom.
The Burlington Free Press reported that Sundays lab scare brought about 50 safety personnel, including firefighters and teams trained to handle clandestine labs and hazardous materials.
When police arrived, they said 20-year-old Pan Costa-Mangina of Winooski told them were no problems. But then his mother approached officers and told them he allegedly threatened some people.
Police said they found a gallon-sized ice tea plastic jug on a milk crate, being cooked in the bedroom. It wasnt immediately known what it was.
Costa-Mangina was jailed on aggravated domestic assault and unlawful restraint charges.MORE IN Vermont NewsSUNDERLAND Holding a sandwich bag containing a squirming, Eastern red-spotted newt, Evan Grant...

Buffalo Laser Spa, Inc. and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center
Now Offering The Two Newest Methods in Non-Invasive Fat Removal!
Welcome to Buffalo Laser Spa, Inc., Buffalo's leader in non-invasive aesthetic laser treatments. Men and women always want to look as great as they feel, and at Buffalo Laser Spa and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center, we have the treatments you need to look your very best. Looking to get rid of your fat, embarrassing unwanted facial and body hair, or suffer with the dimpled appearance of unwanted cellulite? With our revolutionary lasers systems for fat removal, body contouring, hair removal, and cellulite reduction, patients leave Buffalo Laser Spa looking and feeling great. We provide services to all of Western New York including but not limited to Amherst, Buffalo, Clarence, Orchard Park, Williamsville.
Introducing Our NEW SculpSure Laser!
Exclusively at Buffalo Laser Spa
Buffalo Laser Spa and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center has prided itself on bringing in the best and newest Laser Technology into our practice. Cheryl & Joseph Parisi owners purchased the first FDA-approved Laser for Hair Removal in July of 1998 for skin types one, two and three. We then purchased one of the first YAG lasers a few years later when available that treats darker skin types, four, five, and six for Hair Removal.
In the mid 2000's Buffalo Laser Spa and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center got involved with the first laser cellulite reduction units which were fda approved. These lasers also assisted clients in their body contouring needs. As newer technologies came about, Buffalo Laser Spa and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center were upgrading their equipment.
We purchased the first Laser for non-invasive Fat Removal in 2010. In 2012 the next generation was available and again Buffalo Laser Spa and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center were the first in Buffalo to offer this exciting new technology. Recently at the end of 2015, we purchased the newest, fastest technology to remove fat and contour the body in just 25 minutes - the SculpSure Laser.
The SculpSure is more than a game changer in the non-invasive fat removal and body contouring industry. SculpSure 'stands' alone as the fastest and easiest Laser to sculpt your body & remove your stubborn fat, period! Sculpsure is offered exclusively at Buffalo Laser Spa & Cheryl's Hair Removal Center. Sculpsure is the 25-Minute Fat Removal & Body Contouring Treatment for most individuals in one treatment. Sculpsure is the only non-invasive fat removal & body contouring system for the reduction of stubborn fat. Sculpsure targets stubborn fat in abdomens and love handles.
The SculpSure system went through years of studies and testing before the FDA approved the device in late 2015. Buffalo Laser Spa and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center was chosen to offer the SculpSure, as the company only released a small number of units at the end of 2015 in a soft opening. As 2016 rolls out, the manufacturer plans on increasing sales to the entire country.
The differences between SCULPSURE and GENTLE SLIM:
SculpSure is currently available for those individuals who have stubborn fat in their abdomen and/or love handles. It works in one 25-minute treatment for those who are 5-15 pounds overweight. Some individuals will be able to have both their abdomens and love handles done in only one 25-minute treatment! Call 716-817-5544 for details on the differences in Sculpsure and Gentle Slim.
Individuals who are 15-30 pounds overweight may need two 25-minute treatments, scheduled six weeks apart from the first treatment. Individuals may like the way their abdomen and/or love handles look after one treatment and may opt out of any additional treatments.
Gentle Slim works well and is cost effective for those who are 25-30 pounds or more overweight. Call our clinic to schedule a FREE consultation to see if SculpSure or Gentle Slim will work best for you! 716-817-5544
Gentle Slim Laser Fat Removal
The Gentle Slim Program utilizes eight 10-minute non-invasive laser treatments over 4 weeks followed by mild exercise and a healthy lifestyle. Best of all there is No Surgery & No Downtime; you can go about your daily routine after your 10-minute treatment. Gentle Slim is safe & painless and utilizes Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) to remove the fat from the fat cells. You then burn off the fat as energy with mild exercise.
Gentle Slim is clinically proven by independent studies, which have shown in some cases to be compared to what liposuction has achieved in some patients. Images from ultrasound have shown up to a 30% reduction in the fat layer depth after just one single treatment. Additional treatments have shown to improve the results even further. The results after each treatment can be seen immediately as the fat cell contents are released. Exercise creates a demand in our bodies for extra energy. The body responds to this demand by releasing stored fat content to be used as fuel. The release can be from any stored fat content around the body. The use of Gentle Slim creates a process of photobiomodulation to mimic the body's natural processes, but the Gentle Slim allows the client to select a target area for fat release before the body even begins exercising.
Compared to liposuction surgery and other violent invasive treatments, Gentle Slim is much more affordable with similar results.
Gentle Slim can target fat reduction in specific problem area. By positioning the laser pads on the target area such as love handles, under chin, upper arms, abdomen (pooch) or thighs fat can be broken down and removed specifically from that area. This is a big advantage over diet and exercise, which can reduce overall body fat but not shape individual areas. Gentle Slim can!
Buffalo Laser Spa and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center also offers their Gentle Slim program, which is non-invasive fat removal for individuals combined with light 20 minutes of exercise and a healthy lifestyle. The Gentle Slim program utilizes certified personal trainers and certified nutrition counselors to help their clients achieve their fat loss goals. Take our test/quiz here to see which Fat Removal and Body Contouring program will work best for your individual needs. Buffalo Laser Spa can customize a plan to your individual requirements.

"Gentle Slim is UNBELIEVABLE!" - Ron (Buffalo)
Hair Removal
At Buffalo Laser Spa, Inc., we provide two methods of permanent hair removal: Laser Hair Removal and Electrolysis, therefore all patients interested in removing unwanted hair with permanent results can achieve their goals.
Laser treatments for hair removal are the most advanced form of permanent hair reduction, however they will not work completely for everyone. You can expect Laser Hair Removal to achieve 90% hair reduction, which can be followed with electrolysis to get a permanent hair removal result. The lasers work by targeting the dark pigment within the hair follicles, because lasers are attracted to dark colors in the pigment; those individuals with blonde, gray, white or red hair will not see successful hair reduction results via laser because these hair colors do not contain enough color to attract the laser light.
Those with lighter hair colors should not be discouraged however because at Buffalo Laser Spa, we also offer electrolysis. Electrolysis was the first permanent form of hair removal to be introduced to consumers over 100 years ago, and while this treatment does take longer to complete, it can permanently remove any hair, no matter the color. This means that we are able to treat any patient in order to get the hair free results they are looking for.
Cellulite Reduction / Body Contouring
Aging brings about more than just fine lines and wrinkles, as we age; it becomes harder to keep our desired body shape. For many women and men, aging causes certain areas of the body to no longer respond to diet and exercise alone. For those individuals who suffer with localized areas of unwanted fat or unwanted cellulite on the abdomen, thighs, hips and buttocks, Buffalo Laser Spa, Inc. can help.
For those interested in reducing the visible signs of cellulite, Buffalo Laser Spa uses the Ultra Laser treatment that can provide successful results. The Ultra Laser Treatments work to effectively target and treat excess, unwanted fat and the visible signs of cellulite. When diet and exercise alone no longer do the trick, a series of treatments will give you smoother, tighter skin and the shape you thought you'd never get back.
You can feel Ultra deliver results with the vacuum massage action and laser light enhance the removal of released fat cell contents by its suction action which optimizes absorption of laser light in the dermis to promote collagen growth and enhance blood circulation in the area. The result is slimmer, tighter, and smoother looking skin.
Buffalo Laser Spa and Cheryl's Hair Removal Center employees certified laser techs, certified personal trainers and certified nutrition counselors to help their clients achieve their fat loss goals.

How to Get a Six Pack (for Girls)
Two Parts:ExerciseDietCommunity Q&A
Do you want sleek, sculpted six pack abs? It's easier than you think! This article lists the best exercises to give you a flat, buff stomach.
Part 1
1Try the "bicycle" workout. This can help you get abs fast. Lie on your back, (with your back flat on the floor), lift your legs up, and move them as if you are pedaling a bicycle. Put your hands behind your head, and every time you move one of your legs toward your face, touch it with your elbow. For example, when your left leg comes toward you, touch it with your right elbow.
2Do crunches. Crunches are another great way to get abs quickly and effectively, and there are tons of variations on crunches. Basic crunches require you to lie down on a matted floor, with your back flat to the ground and your knees bent at a 60 degree angle. With your hands near your temples, or crossed on your chest, lift your shoulder blades off the ground a small bit and feel the "crunch" in your abs. Exhale and go back down to the ground. Repeat.
- Try the hands overhead crunch. Instead of keeping your hands at your temple, do a basic crunch while stretching your arms overhead with your palms crossed. Keep your arms outstretched above your head at all times while you complete the crunch.
- Try the cross-body crunch. With your hands clasped gently behind your head, bring your left elbow and right knee together when you crunch. Go back down and bring the right elbow and left knee together as you crunch. Try to bring your shoulder up towards your knee rather than just your elbow. Remember that the key is to contract the abs as you perform the movement.
- Try the legs on exercise ball crunch. Instead of having your legs bent on the ground, place your legs at a 90 degree angle onto a large medicine ball. Slowly roll your shoulders off the floor and contract your abs, as in a regular crunch. Move down and repeat.
- Try the decline crunch. Get a decline bench and secure your legs at the highest point so you won't fall off. Lower yourself down so your body is completely in-line with the bench. With your hands crossed over your chest, gently lift your shoulders up, contract your ab muscles, and hold it for a second. Go down and repeat.
- Try a rotation of crunches. Example: 20 regular, 10 cross-body, 15 hands over head.
3Do the plank exercise. The plank exercise is one of the most reliable, deceptively simple ways to give great definition to your abs. All you need is a flat surface, a little bit of time, and some serious gumption as you feel the burn.
- Get down in the prone position. The tips of your toes and your forearms — from the bottom of your elbow to your balled-up first — should be the only parts of your body touching the floor.
- Make sure your weight is supported by your toes and your forearms.
- Keep your body as straight as possible at all times. Hold this position as long as you can.
- To increase difficulty, an arm or leg can be raised. Place one foot on top of the other to also increase difficulty.
- To further increase difficulty, wear a weighted vest or carefully place a plated weight onto the small of your back.
4Lift your weight. Take two chairs of equal height, and rest your forearms on them, then pick your legs up off the floor in an up and down position. But be careful that you don't slip or fall.
5Do leg raises. Another great ab-builder is leg raises. You'll be able to feel how effective this exercise is as soon as you get into starting position.
- To get into starting position, lie down flat on a matted floor, your head, back and legs completely even with the floor. Shift your hands underneath your glutes.
- Gently lift your feet an inch or so above the ground, so that they are just barely hovering above, and are parallel to, the ground. Keep this position until you start to feel a burn in your abs.
- Slowly lift your outstretched legs, with your knees bent a touch, until they make a 90 degree angle to the floor. Your body should form an "L" shape.
- When your legs have reached the 90 degree angle, contract your abs for a second. Gradually lower your legs back down to the starting position, exhale, and repeat.
6Do cardio as much as possible. Set aside at least one day a week to run a mile. Playing games like tag and hide and go seek outside can even burn calories. Taking your dog for a run is also a convenient way to run, and make sure you drink plenty of water!
7Work out your abs for about 30 minutes, 3 days a week, at first. Work up to exercises all 5 days of the week. Eventually, when it gets easier, do ab workouts twice each day, 5 days a week.
Part 2
1Watch what you eat! Eat plenty of protein to build those ab muscles. Avoid sugar all together and reduce your caloric intake.
- Eating dos:
- Lean meat, such as beef, chicken, or turkey.
- Lean protein, such as soybeans (tofu) or other beans.
- Antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables, such as spinach, kale, blueberries, or strawberries.
- Nuts and seeds, such as walnuts and sunflower seeds (unsalted).
- Whole grains, such as oatmeal or whole-grain pasta.
- Eating don'ts:
- Fast-foods.
- Excessive cholesterol (butters, creams, etc.) and carbohydrates (breads, starches, etc.).
- Sweets, such as candies, cakes, and pastries.
- Processed foods, such as sweet breakfast cereals, chips, or fish sticks high in sodium.
- Eating dos:
2Eat small portions of food in regular intervals. Shoot to eat about 5-7 times a day, just with really small portions. For a snack, go for a banana and some walnuts, or a small bit of caprese salad. Your biggest meal of the day should be lunch.
- Try not to eat right before you go to bed. Food that gets consumed right before bed often doesn't have enough time to get metabolized by your body, and so is converted directly into fat. Avoid those late-night snacks!
3Drink plenty of water. A suitable allowance of water for adults is 2.5 liters daily in most instances but most of this quantity is contained in prepared foods. Drinking water also prevents you from drinking other alternatives which contain calories while still keeping you hydrated. Contrary to popular belief you don't need 8 glasses of water a day [1]
- Cut out all sugary drinks from your diet! Sugary drinks — even those like Diet Coke, or Coke Zero — will not contribute to your overall health like plain, filtered water will. You don't have to be fanatical about it, but try to avoid soft-drinks as a general rule.
- Drink green tea! Green tea is packed with antioxidants, which are instrumental in curbing free radicals — cells in your body that attack other cells and contribute to aging.[2] Without sugar, green tea is a great way to get some fluids and antioxidants into your body, and it contains maybe 1 calorie or less per serving.
- Drink a big glass of water or green tea right before a meal. This will give your stomach the illusion of being full, which means that you're likely to eat less.
Community Q&A
What times of day are best to eat?
- Before and during a cardio workout, water is the best thing to drink. However, after your workout your body needs to replace the electrolytes and salts that it has lost. The best way to replenish these nutrients is with a sports drink such as Gatorade or Powerade, but we all know sugary and altogether unhealthy those drinks can be. Get the sports drink of your choice and pour the top 1/3 out of the bottle. Replace what you poured out by adding water into the bottle, so that the liquid fills the bottle once again.
- Starvation diets starve the muscle when instead, you should be feeding the muscle a lean and low carb diet. But, do not overfeed your muscles or you will not lose and may add fat. Your body must get energy from somewhere, and you will lose the ab muscle that you are trying to build, if you are starving yourself.
- Under a layer of fat, your ab work is wasted -- Why? No one can see the results.
- To make it more fun, you could invite some friends to work out with you.
- While doing leg raises strap weights to your feet, it really works your stomach.
- Make sure you still eat because if you're already pretty fit, you have to have the calories back that you lost. Still eat healthy though... Not fat filled foods.
- Try to do strides after each exercise.
- For each exercise, hold them in intervals, longer each interval. For example, you could hold a plank for 30 seconds, go down for a couple of seconds and hold the plank again, maybe for 45 seconds.
- Don't work out for a very very long time if you're a beginner. Start slow and build your way up.
- Try mountain climbers, its a great exercise for the side abs. All you need to do is go into a press up position(make sure your arms are lined up with your shoulders) and bend your right leg inwards and touch your stomach with your knee then do the same with your left leg. Keep doing this for 30 seconds and remember, if you feel the burn don't stop because its working!!!!!
- Drink plenty of water before and after every meal. But don't stuff yourself. Eat until your not hungry, don't eat until you feel bloated. Stick to a healthy diet and choose water as your main drink with your food.
- Stretch before each workout session.
- If you want abs and you are starting for the first time, you should start off at a lower number. For example: Do 15 crunches and the next day do 20 crunches. Keep increasing the number for progress.

No, sadly. Part of the problem is that the technology isn't mature yet, the
other part is that .net really puts the burden for security on the the
application design.
authaspdotnet.asp discusses authentication in a .net environment.
http://www.dotnetjunkies.com/tutorials.aspx?tutorialid=396 gives a nice
overview of how IIS, Windows, and .NET work together. One of the articles he
references is
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/04/ASPSec/default.aspx, which is
also not bad.
When this topic came up earlier, somebody mentioned this article:
http://tiberi.us/view_article.aspx?article_id=27, not bad.
But none of them speak exactly to what you're asking, which is what every
admin who needs to support .net is going to be asking, which is "Exactly
what do I do to make sure the server itself is as secure as possible?"
Again, the two factors previously mentioned are responsible: once you've
done the locking down of IIS, you need to move onto setting security on the
Web services themselves, things like code access (remember, the whole idea
behind .net is to expose executable code to the world via http:
WHOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOO). Also, auhtentication to specific apps. And unlike the
best practices for securing IIS, all of the BP's stuff I've read is really
geared towards developers or focuses on securing access to the components.
At this point, we are not using ASP.NET for remotely accessible
applications. We definitely will, but not until me and the developers at my
Co. can figure out what we need to do.
Anyways, sorry for the ramble; this issue has come up here before, and I
watched hoping for someone to come up with a white paper. Then I did some
searching; I found no comprehensive guide, but a lot of good resources. At
this point, you, me, and everyone else tasked with deploying .net based apps
will have to formulate our own best practices based on careful study of the
basic info out there.

Budva is very beautiful and modern town, with lot of sandy beaches and places to see. There are number of 4 and 5 star hotels, spa centers, aqua parks, clubs, so it's perfect for the holidays and long term vacations. Other coast towns are just an hour or less distant from Budva, so you can escape from to some other place quite easily. If you decide to rent a car there, it's quite cheap and there's some very good rent a car agencies, like Perfect. Hope you'll have a great time!
During the summer, city center can be bit crowdy, but as I said in the pros, you should definitely visit this beautiful town.Comment on this review

Though Czech Republic coach Alois Hadamczik informed the local media of his intentions to reveal the country's Olympic roster no later than Jan. 7, many spots remain up for grabs at this juncture.
Hadamczik received some bad news this month when it was learned that Phoenix Coyotes defenseman Zbynek Michalek and San Jose Sharks forward Tomas Hertl each would miss significant time. In fact, Hadamczik told a Czech media outlet that Hertl will not participate in the 2014 Sochi Games.
Hertl, who needs surgery to repair a right knee injury, is expected to miss at least a month. His absence will be a big blow for the Czech offense considering he leads NHL rookies with 15 goals and 25 points in 35 games.
Michalek sustained his injury Dec. 17 and has been ruled out indefinitely.
There has been some positive news: Colorado Avalanche defenseman Jan Hejda (knee) and Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Radko Gudas (upper body) have returned from recent injuries, and goalie Michal Neuvirth (ankle) was recalled by the Washington Capitals on Dec. 18 following a conditioning stint with the team's American Hockey League affiliate, the Hershey Bears.
The return of Neuvirth is significant considering the Czechs can ill afford to sustain any more losses between the pipes. The country's best goalie, Tomas Vokoun, was placed on long-term injured reserve by the Pittsburgh Penguins on Oct. 2 after undergoing an operation to fix a blood clot in his pelvis.
Here is how the Czech Republic lineup might look at the 2014 Sochi Olympics:
Patrik Elias - David Krejci - Jaromir Jagr
Jiri Hudler - Tomas Plekanec - Jakub Voracek
Ondrej Palat - Martin Hanzal - Radim Vrbata
Tomas Fleischmann - Vladimir Sobotka - Roman Cervenka
Ales Hemsky-Michael Frolik
WHAT'S CHANGED: There were two additions: Winnipeg Jets right wing Michael Frolik and Lightning left wing Ondrej Palat. Frolik, who has twice represented his country at the IIHF World Junior Championship, replaces a struggling Milan Michalek of the Ottawa Senators. Frolik already has accrued his highest goal and point total in four seasons. Palat, who ranks in the top eight on the Lightning in hits, blocked shots and takeaways, was added as Hertl's replacement.
The St. Louis Blues' Vladimir Sobotka, currently on injured reserve with an upper-body injury, should be healthy enough to play in Sochi.
Marek Zidlicky - Ladislav Smid
Jan Hejda - Petr Caslava
WHAT'S CHANGED: Caslava, who serves as captain for Cherepovets in the Kontinental Hockey League, replaces Rostislav Klesla, the 2000 first-round pick (No. 4) now splitting time between the Phoenix Coyotes and the AHL. Caslava, 34, can assist on specialty teams, something the coaching staff may take into consideration. At 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds, he's a big-bodied defenseman capable of bringing grit and feistiness.
WHAT'S CHANGED: Jakub Kovar supplants Jakub Stepanek as the third goalie. The 6-1, 193-pounder is 12-14-0 with a 2.21 goals-against average and .924 save percentage in 33 games for Yekaterinburg in the Kontinental Hockey League. He won a bronze medal with the Czech national team at the 2012 IIHF World Championship in Helsinki.
NEXT IN LINE: If Zbynek Michalek is unable to represent his country as a result of his injury, Roman Polak of the Blues would be an adequate replacement. Among the top five on the Blues in hits and blocked shots, Polak, 27, played five games in the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. He currently is on IR with an ankle injury but should be 100 percent by the time the Olympics starts.

This system was bringing some mid and high clouds areas south of Interstate 94. Meanwhile a 1024 mb surface high located over southern Ontario kept the low levels dry. Dew points this afternoon ranged from the upper 20s to upper 30s. Finally, another short wave trough was located over central Minnesota. This system was bringing clouds to areas north of Interstate 94. For tonight and Saturday, the short wave to our south will move east into the Ohio River Valley and the short wave over central Minnesota will move southeast through the Upper Mississippi River Valley. With the Canadian high continuing to bring very dry air into the region, not anticipating any precipitation from either of these systems. With skies becoming mostly sunny on Saturday afternoon, temperatures will warm into the mid and upper 70s. There may be even a few lower 80s in the river valleys. Like the past couple of days, the model dew points look too high, so lowered them by 5F. .LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Friday) Issued at 256 PM CDT Fri May 20 2016 On Sunday afternoon, the combination of mostly to partly sunny skies and 850 mb temperatures in the 10 to 13C will allow temperatures to warm to around 80F. In addition, soundings continue to show that there will be plenty of dry aloft to mix to the surface. This will likely lower the dew points into the lower to mid 40s which is about 5F below MOS. This will cause the afternoon relative humidity values to fall into 25 to 35 percent range. From late Sunday night through Tuesday morning, the models continue to show that a long wave trough will move slowly east through the Upper Mississippi. The best chance of rain will be on Monday afternoon and night. Like the past 3 days, the ECMWF continue to suggest that the best synoptic forcing and 850 mb moisture transport will be north and south of the forecast area. As a result, still a bit concerned that the precipitation chances may be a bit too high along the front in the Upper Mississippi River Valley. In addition to this, the models continue to differ on the potential instability ahead of this system. The GFS continues to have the highest mixed layer CAPES with values around 1500 J/kg. Meanwhile the ECMWF only has mixed layer CAPES up to 200 J/kg. With both the 0-3 km and 0-6 km shear less than 25 knots, still not anticipating any severe weather with this front. Beyond this time period, the models have been less consistent. As a result just stayed with the model consensus. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Saturday night) Issued at 1134 PM CDT Fri May 20 2016 Besides a few passing cirrus, expect mostly clear skies overnight at KLSE/KRST. A few high-based cumulus in the 7000 to 9000 ft agl layer are possible Saturday afternoon, but a drier overall column will result in mostly sunny/clear conditions through the rest of the period. With surface high pressure in place, winds will be light and mainly variable. However, there is a slight northerly directional preference at KLSE and east-southeasterly preference at KRST by Saturday afternoon. && .ARX Watches/Warnings/Advisories... WI...None. MN...None.

The Battle over the Euro-Bond: Juncker Calls German Thinking 'Simple'
Germany has resisted calls for a joint Euro-Bond to help the euro zone's weaker members, but the chairman of the euro zone finance ministers says they need to study his proposal. Merkel's spokesman says they have.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel (L) and Luxembourg's Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker, Chairman of the Eurogroup, at a joint news conference in Luxembourg in March.
The chairman of euro zone finance ministers, Jean-Claude Juncker, challenged the German government on Wednesday to take a closer look at his proposal for issuing joint bonds for reducing weaker euro-zone states' borrowing costs.
The German government was swift to respond. Merkel's spokesman Steffen Seibert said it didn't help anyone to characterize the other as "un-European." He said that Juncker's proposal was not new, and had been studied by the German officials.
The proposal would include developing a new "European Debt Agency" to issue the Euro-Bonds. The bonds would be jointly put on the market by euro-zone states and would have advantages for the less-solvent nations because of their lower interest rates. For countries like Germany, which has solid credit-worthiness, it could mean paying higher rates than what they pay now.
Jitters over Policy Differences
On Wednesday, yields on German government bonds, the 10-year German Bund, rose to over 3 percent for the first time in seven months. Analysts attributed the rise, at least in part, to jitters over policy differences within the EU. Euro zone finance ministers have been unable to come to agreement this week to stem the euro crisis, in advance of an EU Summit to be held next week.
In the past, Juncker has made comments wary of Germany's European economic policies. "That in Germany federal and local authorities are slowly losing sight of European public good, that does worry me," Juncker told the newspaper Rheinischer Merkur last month.

Well, test dog stairs!It is worth mentioning that in The Usa over 60 million individuals own a dog. These animals are great for defense, but they could always function as good pets. And to enjoy the business of your favorite pet for years to come, the company is essential that you just take some serious ways. And one great step would be to get your dog ever more popular dog measures. Yes, that's right. When you get dog stairs, not merely will it help your dog can get on your bed with ease but it'll also help him enjoy good health for several years.These dog stairs pave just how for your dogs to get to you with minimum of fuss. Generally, that you do not even know how many times your pet have remaining your bed to take a stroll around your house to ensure everything's fine. However, it should also be taken into account that you might see your pet getting injured when you do nothing for him to get out of your bed with ease. This is equally crucial, bones and as when puppies jump out of your bed or jump from the large place, the dogs put a lot of pressure on their feet. This is something that increases the possibility of your dog being a victim of a significant Tibia & Fibula Fracture.Always remember that your dog isn't impervious to spinal or combined injuries. This is regardless of how young your dog is or what breed of dog you've. No doubt, some varieties are more prone to mutual accidents, such as Dachshunds, Pomeranians, and Chihuahuas.

On or off? Britney Spears' romance under the spotlight amid infidelity claim
This week the pop star was spotted out and about with newly dyed dark locks - a symbol of her blossoming romance with Jason Trawick according to some, or a sign their relationship is on the rocks if you believe others.
According to some accounts, Britney's man, 38, is on the verge of proposing to the singer and has even spoken to her ex-husband Kevin Federline to get the all-clear.
"Jason not only professed his love for Britney, he told Kevin he absolutely adores his two sons," a source has revealed.
"Jason acknowledged that Kevin will always be the boys' real dad, but respectfully asked his blessing as a future co-parent.
"Kevin couldn't be happier, he trusts Jason. The guys agreed to be in close touch – and Britney's thrilled knowing she's now one step closer to her goal of marrying Jason and living happily ever after."
However, if conflicting reports are to be believed, the 28-year-old's dreams of a fairytale ending have hit a bump.
According to the Mirror, Britney and her agent love, who started dating in June 2008, are on a trial split after the mum-of-two allegedly discovered he had been cavorting with two women at an LA bar.
Ella Davis, who says she was at the Roger Room at the same time said: "Jason left the bar with two bottles of water – and a stunning girl who looked like Britney did five years ago."
"He had his arms around her and they looked extremely comfortable in each other's company."
It is reported that the mum-of-two checked into a five star hotel and turned her phone off upon hearing the news, and called her mum who flew from Louisiana to be with her.
"This isn't the first time Britney has been let down by a man in her life," a source told the paper.
"LA is a small town for those in the know and Jason's antics didn't take long to filter through to her… Everyone is assuming it's over – for the time being anyway. It is very sad."

Iran's Bloody Politics
It's a pity Ahmadinejad and Khamenei can't both lose their power struggle.
It's election time again in Iran, and the bitter rivalries between the regime's leading political figures have delivered an upsurge in violence far beyond Iran's borders. Western intelligence directly attributes the recent spate of Iranian-sponsored terrorist attacks around the world, including a series of failed assassination attempts against Israeli diplomats, to Friday's parliamentary elections, when Iranians cast their votes to elect a new Majlis.
According to senior Western intelligence officials, the attacks have been undertaken on the orders of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The Supreme Leader looks to be trying to strengthen his appeal to Iranian voters at the expense of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Iranian opposition activists say Khamenei has ordered the Revolutionary Guard, which answers directly to him, to ensure that his followers in the United Front party win a majority of seats in the election. The Council of Guardians, which Khamenei also controls, has already carefully vetted the 3,444 candidates who will be contesting the 290 seats in the Majlis to ensure that they are committed to revolutionary Islamic principles. Now Khamenei wants to ensure that voters choose the right candidates.
The Revolutionary Guard conducted a similar exercise during the disputed presidential election of 2009, to ensure that Ahmadinejad served a second term. Since then, Khamenei has fallen out with Ahmadinejad over their disagreements on the future role of the presidency in Iranian government, and is said to refer to the president's supporters as "the deviant movement." For his part, Ahmadinejad dubs Khamenei's circle a "bunch of madmen."
Western intelligence officials believe this power struggle within the Iranian politburo has now manifested itself as a new campaign by the Khamenei faction to demonstrate his hard anti-Western line and show that he is the more effective guardian of Iran's Islamic Revolution. This effort was in plain sight earlier this year with Tehran's threat to close the Strait of Hormuz. Revolutionary Guard activists loyal to Khamenei are also suspected of having been involved in last year's plot to murder the Saudi Arabian ambassador to the U.S. at a Georgetown restaurant.
Then came the recent attacks against Israeli diplomats at vulnerable locations around the world. The cycle began in Georgia and India, where teams of terrorists undertook almost simultaneous attacks against Israeli diplomatic targets. Shortly thereafter, another team of terrorists tried to assassinate Israeli diplomats in Bangkok, which has recently become a popular tourist destination for Israeli tourists.
All of the attacks failed, thanks to the vigilance of Israeli counterintelligence officials. Tehran issued its their customary official denials of any involvement, although in Thailand these claims have been somewhat undermined by the fact that one of the bombers, who blew off his own legs in the botched assassination attempt, turned out to be an Iranian citizen. Thai authorities have also uncovered a mountain of evidence—including 4.5 tons of homemade explosives—which they believe was to be used as part of a nationwide terror campaign against Israeli holiday-makers.
The theory is that a spectacular attack might bolster Khamenei's position. "Nothing is more assured to increase the Supreme Leader's domestic popularity than the murder of an Israeli diplomat," one Western intelligence official told me. "While the Iranians never publicly acknowledge their involvement in terrorism, if one of these attacks were to succeed everyone in Iran would know that Khamenei's people were responsible."
Evidence suggests that the terrorist attacks are the work of the Quds Force, the elite unit of the Revolutionary Guards responsible for exporting Iran's revolutionary form of Islam. The Quds Force reports directly to Khamenei and, apart from its likely involvement in terrorism, has also stirred political unrest among Shia Muslims in Bahrain and the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. The unit is also actively supporting Hezbollah's attempts in Lebanon to avenge the death of Imad Mugniyeh, the terrorist mastermind responsible for the 1983 U.S. Marine barracks bombing in Beirut. Mugniyeh was killed by Israeli intelligence agents in Damascus in February 2008.
Tensions between Ahmadinejad and Khamenei have been rising since early 2011, when Ahmadinejad tried to sack a minister loyal to Khamenei. Ahmadinejad, who is due to stand down as Iran's president next year, has been attempting to place his supporters in key posts so he can continue to influence the country's political direction after he leaves office. But these tactics have been fiercely resisted by Khamenei and his supporters, who believe the Supreme Leader has overall responsibility for maintaining the country's long-term religious and strategic objectives, including its controversial nuclear program.
Meanwhile, Khamenei appears willing to harm innocent civilians as part of his political jockeying. To borrow Henry Kissinger's quip about the Iran-Iraq war, it's a pity that, in the present power struggle, Ahmadinejad and Khamenei can't both lose.

Under the Radar DVD of the Week: 'The Curse of the Gothic Symphony'
This week, the oddest DVD to appear on release lists is:
'The Curse of the Gothic Symphony"
Eccentric British composer Havergal Brian's symphony, "The Gothic" is widely considered among the longest, largest and most technically difficult symphonies ever composed. Its colorful history and an 80-year shadow that has hung over this seldom-performed musical work is the subject of "The Curse of the Gothic Symphony" (due out on DVD Tuesday).
This 2011 documentary charts the efforts of a determined and passionate group of musicians in Australia to break the curse and mount a performance of the monumental symphony – which demands a 200 piece orchestra and a 500 voice choir – for the first time in 30 years.
Often called "the Everest of classical music," the work took Brian (1876-1972) eight years to finish, and by the end the composer himself declared the symphony to be cursed, claiming that it wrote itself. So daunting is the task of mounting this symphony that it had only been performed four previous times when a group of musicians and music lovers determined to defy the curse and stage a 2010 performance in Brisbane.
Director Randall Wood profiles the key players in the five-year saga – impresario Gary Thorpe, youth orchestra conductor John Curro, choral master Alison Rogers and dogged producer Veronica Fury – and lucidly lays out the seemingly insurmountable problems they faced – from funding the performance to securing a venue to assembling the required group of skilled musicians and choristers needed to do the symphony justice.
Suitably, the film builds, with surprising dramatic force, to an evocative sampling of the culminating performance itself, and leaves us with just enough hint of sublime, transcendent melody to recognize the ongoing attraction and obsession that this dead composer's master work encourages.
"The Curse of the Gothic Symphony" is not rated and runs 82 minutes. It's being released by First Run Features.

Formula V to celebrate 50th anniversary at Daytona
Published: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at 3:54 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at 9:36 p.m.
Prior to the start of the 51st anniversary of the Rolex 24 At Daytona on 11:25 A.M. Saturday, the Formula V class will celebrate a big milestone at the "World Center of Racing."
Fifty years after its first official race, Volkswagen's former single-seater series returns to its birthplace at Daytona International Speedway with a "Lap of Honor" in the vintage racing machines around the 3.56-mile road course.
"Volkswagen can look back on major success on the motorsports scene. However, the continuous promotion of juniors has been even more successful," Volkswagen Motorsport Director Jost Capito said. "50 years ago, Formula V was pioneering in this regard.
"It accompanied many eventual motorsports legends as they took their first steps towards a career in motor racing. Many of these legends will be brought together for the revival in Daytona, where it all began with the first ever Formula V race. I am really looking forward to this reunion."
The first ever Formula V race was held at the Speedway in August 1963. Armed with the 40 hp, 1.2-litre engine and the chassis from the Volkswagen Beetle, motorsports enthusiasts put together extremely economic, single-seater racing cars and launched a boom that was soon to spill over to Europe.
A number of former Formula V drivers who have since become racing legends will be in attendance for the "Lap of Honor" on Saturday including Hurley Haywood, Michael Andretti, Arie Luyendyk, Didier Theys and Hans Stuck.
Haywood, a five-time Rolex 24 winner, will preside over this weekend's race as grand marshal.
The Rolex 24 At Daytona, the prestigious season-opening event to the Rolex Sports Car Series, is scheduled to start at 3:30 p.m. Saturday.
A star-studded driver lineup from around the world will battle the 3.56-mile road course in Daytona Prototypes, GT and GX class cars for a coveted victory in the twice-around-the-clock challenge.

Merging Service Profiles
Updated: March 28, 2003
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
Merging service profiles is especially useful for incorporating information from multiple phone books, including service types, POP names, and access numbers. You can also use it to consolidate different dial-up access numbers that are covered by more than one of your phone books. By merging existing service profiles into a single top-level service profile, you can present several dissimilar networks as a single, cohesive service.
You can merge multiple profiles so that the top-level profile, which is the service profile you distribute to users, behaves as if it has a single phone book, which contains all the POPs defined in each of the component profiles. For example, if you outsource your phone book through multiple ISPs, and each ISP provides you with a service profile containing its phone book(s), you can merge the profiles together within a top-level service profile that contains dial-up numbers for all the POPs from all the providers.
For an example of merging service profiles, see "Example: Deploying Remote Access Clients" later in this chapter.
