- Meeting Space
Flexible and Elegant Puerto Rico Meeting Space
Las Nereidas Ballroom
Our impressive grand ballroom, presents high ceilings with modern square chandeliers, providing a large span of unobstructed space perfect for presentations and meetings. Blue-tinged recessed ceiling lights set a neutral mood, and large windows to the West let natural light in, or they can be blacked out for complete privacy.
Sophisticated sound and light systems are available, and an adjacent outdoor terrace overlooking bustling Ashford Avenue may be accessed through sliding wooden doors. A winding staircase conveniently leads to the terrace directly from the Lobby/Valet Parking area, providing attendees easy access to the premises.
Perfectly suited for conferences, banquets, galas or sit down dinners, the ballroom can accommodate 300 persons for banquet seating. It may be divided into A & B sections fitting 150 guests each.
Additionally, a pre-function area that fits up to 300 persons for cocktails features scalloped ceilings channeling the iconic La Concha leitmotif, and colored shadows are projected near the ceiling as light passes through modern stained glass windows. Convenient same-floor bathrooms round out our premier business venue.
Salón del Mar
As its name aptly suggests, faces the sea, a luxurious yet compact space for meetings, corporate banquets, luncheons and corporate trainings. It can also be used as a private showroom, seating 60 persons banquet-style as a whole or divisible into two sections, A & B, sitting 30 persons each.
The room is bathed in natural light; however, electric blackout curtains can cover windows for AV presentations. Windows and glass doors lead to an enchanting oceanfront outdoor terrace, which can be set up for breakouts, cocktails or an informal lunch. On the opposite side, a spacious pre-function area can be set up for cocktails, coffee breaks and buffet service.
The Boardroom
Which is more intimate still, seats 12 persons for high-level meetings around a long marble conference table. Quality amenities include white state-of-the-art ergonomic chairs, a large LCD screen for presentations and cozy wood-paneled walls with stainless-steel insets. A modern lighting system is suspended above the conference table.
Marble topped sideboards are ideal for Food & Beverage set-up or for placing coffee urns with which to fuel high-energy meetings. A wet bar is available as well. In-house AV services are provided by PSAV, a leading AV services provider, and there is always 24/7 La Concha business center backup for all of your business needs.
Located under the signature Perla seashell, presents a sweeping beachfront panorama without being exposed to the elements, with seven huge windows wrapped around its façade highlighting breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean.
Easy access to the more casual Sereno Pool and Sereno Sand areas allows for complementary al fresco activities.
This highly versatile space evokes a hip industrial loft which can easily be transformed to satisfy your every need.
Its 8,500 sq. feet accommodate 550 persons in banquet seating mode, and more than 800 standing for cocktails. The space is ideal for team building activities, spectacular AV presentations, cocktail parties, awards ceremonies and banquets.
Dazzling exterior spotlights emphasize the structure's impressive heft at night, and a colorful sculpture guards the entrance at the foot of the winding staircase that leads down to Atlantiko from behind the La Concha Lobby.
Mirador & Mirador Terrace
Two private, 12th floor rooftop spaces majestically crown the main building. Sweeping views of the white-capped Atlantic Ocean, the sparkling San Juan nightscape and the faraway rainforest will energize any meeting. Both the Mirador and its adjoining Mirador Terrace area lend themselves for VIP press conferences, banquets, corporate seminars, presentations, as well as for cocktails and ceremonies.
The Mirador itself is a versatile square space surrounded by glass windows, seemingly floating on an endless ocean, and may be completely isolated by curtains for privacy or to surprise either those inside – or those waiting to get in!
The Mirador Terrace has ocean-facing glass railings for unobstructed views of the Atlantic. This exclusive location high above it all can fit 80 persons in banquet seating mode for Mirador and 80 persons standing for cocktails at Mirador Terrace.
An amazing, flexible banquet space located in THE Suite Tower, is accessed from the main building by means of a modern, glass-enclosed bridge suspended over water and past stunning ocean vistas.
Ideal for banquets and luncheons, meetings and corporate events, Indigo has three magnificent breakout rooms with a bird's-eye view of the resort's iconic Perla seashell, 15-foot ceilings and impressive mahogany doors, with plenty of natural light, recessed, indirect lighting and three dazzling crystal chandeliers.

Beechwood Park was the only school in the country to boast two teams in the National final of the Toyota Technology Challenge 2010 (TTC). One team won the top prize in their PIC microcontroller category and the other came second in their solar power class, at the event held at Toyota's Manufacturing plant in Burnaston, Derbyshire on Saturday, May 15th.
The top prize went to the Vetronics team, comprising Matthew Coster (12), Edward Horn (13), William Bigwood (11) and George Poole (11) and they beat teams from schools across the UK competing at the Final of the competition, developed by Toyota Manufacturing UK, in partnership with electronics supplier Rapid. As winners of the PIC microcontroller category, the team, which was sponsored by Merial, the veterinary supplies company, has won £1,000 in cash for the school and an action-packed adventure holiday for the team in Greece, which will be taken in the summer holidays, with Lis Rowley, Beechwood Park's Head of Design Technology.
The Solor 7 team - Sam Machell (12), Tristan Brown (13), Robbie Lightowler (13) and Felix Terrell (13) - competed in the solar power section and were placed second.
The teams presented their project folders and vehicles to a panel of judges from Toyota and Rapid. The climax for most competitors was the moment they set their vehicle loose on the Challenge racetrack - a straight race for teams in the solar power category, or guiding their vehicle around obstacles for teams in the PIC microcontroller category. Lis Rowley commented: "I am so pleased with our teams' performances. Once again, we were the only school in the country to have a team in each category.This competition encompasses everything that is important in life as well as Design Technology. It makes us aware of the environment and how to preserve it and teaches us how to work with others in a team, especially when things get tough. It helps the children to become confident individuals who learn a great deal about science and engineering which they will be able to use in the future."
The TTC, developed by Toyota Manufacturing UK in partnership with educational supplier Rapid, aims to stimulate the interest of young students in technology and engineering, whilst encouraging pupils to consider the environment and the potential use of recycled materials.
Targeted at students aged 11-16 years old, teams of pupils are challenged to design and build an environmentally friendly model vehicle using either solar power to race on a straight track, or PIC microcontroller technology to guide their vehicles to avoid obstacles on a track.

We've selected a winner for our Next Step Artist Spotlight Contest – congratulations to Tara Priya!
LA-based Tara Priya is really on a roll. The retro-soul singer/songwriter hailing from San Francisco has already been awarded several honors, including winning Billboard's Annual Song Contest earlier this year. Beginning piano and poetry at age four, opera training at age eleven, and jazz training in high school, it's clear that Tara has had her eyes on the prize for a long time. In fact, she breezed through undergrad at Columbia in two-and-a-half years, just so she could focus on her music full-time as soon as possible.
Since graduating, Tara returned to California and released her self-titlted debut EP in September 2010, which you can stream in full below. Make sure to take a listen to our favorite track, "Memories." Above, you'll find her adorable video for the infectious "Rollin," which released last month. If you like Nikki & Rich, Tara may well be right up your alley.
We caught up with Tara over email and looks like she's busy working on a second EP for this fall! Also, keep your eyes peeled for tour dates in LA, SF, and NYC! Tara's current tour dates can be found after the jump.
Thanks everyone for your submissions! Heads up that round two of Next Step will be announced in a couple weeks along with some tweaks to the rules and an additional prize!

Budleigh stay on course for Exonia Evening League promotion.
09:34 13 February 2014
A two rink mixed friendly at Exonia resulted in a win for Budleigh by 34 shots to 31.
The chief architects of the victory were Tony Lim, Peter Burch, Diane Dixon and Dawn Graham whose 23–10 victory included a six on the 18th end.
The latest Symes, Robinson and Lee evening league fixture paired Budleigh Falcons with the in-form Madeira Blues, who, in the previous week, had beaten Sidmouth by 38 shots to 18.
This was a pivotal match and, with both sides harbouring championship aspirations, it was the Madeira side who took four of the six points on offer, winning overall by 38 to 32.
The victory came courtesy of Keith Weeks' trio who won by ten shots while Terry Kelly salvaged two points for the Falcons with a hard-fought 20–16 victory.
Another competent display in the Exonia evening league saw Budleigh's squad consolidate their position at the top of the Division Two table.
Don Huish, Leighton Burston, Paul Griffin and skip Peter Burch; the latter adequately refreshed during his bowling weekend in Torquay, overcame the Eagles by 24 shots to 12.
Budleigh raced into an early lead before being overhauled mid-match at 10-11, but thereafter it was one-way traffic with a further 14 shots scored and just a single in reply.
Promotion remains a strong possibility!

Senior Klara Vyskocilova closed out the regular season with a perfect 11-0 dual record.
April 10, 2014
New Orleans - It was a bittersweet day for the Tulane women's tennis team, as the Green Wave dropped a heartbreaking, 4-3, decision to Conference USA newcomer UTSA, but senior and 52nd-ranked Klara Vyskocilova capped off a perfect spring with her 11th dual win today in the regular season finale at the City Park Pepsi Center.
Tulane (4-19) looked to be well on its way to posting a victory in its final home contest of the year. The Green Wave took the all-important doubles point with wins at the No. 1 and No. 2 spots. Vyskocilova and sophomore Jacqui Katz downed Jacobea Junger and Miriam Canudas, 8-1, at the top spot, while the TU sophomore duo of Ipek Birol and Meredith Maltby topped Daniela Garcia-Diaz and Alena Shichkova, 8-3, at the second spot.
The Green Wave then came within a point of securing the victory with Vyskocilova closing out her Senior Day in style with a straight set win over Junger at top spot, 6-1, 6-0. Minutes later, Birol dispatched Canudas, 7-5, 6-2, at No. 2 to give the home team a quick 3-0 lead.
However, the lead quickly evaporated. UTSA (11-9) pulled out four straight matches at the No. 3-6 spots for the road win.
For Vyskocilova, she improves to 18-6 overall, but remains unblemished this spring with an 11-0 dual mark and has now won her last 13 consecutive matches dating back to last fall.
Tulane will continue its season at the 2014 C-USA Championships, Wednesday-Sunday, April 16-20 in Norfolk, Va.
No. 1 Klara Vyskocilova/Jacqui Katz (TLN) def. Jacobea Junger/Miriam Canudas (UTSA), 8-1

I have a Dell Latitude D620 laptop. It was free. When I got it, it worked fine for three days. Then, whenever I turn it on, the screen is a garble of blue lines and shakiness. I hooked the computer up to an external monitor and it displays perfectly. So the LCD is bad, right?
I disconnected the LCD from the D620 and installed it on a Latitude 120L. The 120 uses identical connectors on a different style of ribbon. On the 120L, the same garbled blue lined LCD displayed crystal clear.
So, I have replaced the inverter chip/board, I have replaced the LCD ribbon cable, and I have pulled out most of my hair. This laptop has the notorious nVidia chip, but supposedly, if an external monitor is okay, the chip shouldn't be bad.
Can anyone offer me a suggestion on how to proceed?

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Pennsylvania House Speaker Matthew J. Ryan, the second-longest serving member of the Pennsylvania House, has died at the age of 70.
Ryan, who was diagnosed with stomach cancer last year, died late Saturday at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, surrounded by his wife, Delaware County Court of Common Pleas judge Patricia H. Jenkins, and five children, said Roger Nick, Ryan's chief of staff.
"I think everybody considers him Pennsylvania's elder statesman," Nick said Sunday. "He was just a brilliant man, respected by both sides of the aisle."
Ryan died of complications related to cancer, his staff said. He was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia Feb. 14.
Ryan, a Republican, was first elected in 1962. He won a two-year term as speaker in 1981, then was elected to the post again in 1995 and for each term since then.
In 1999, the Capitol Annex was renamed the Speaker Matthew J. Ryan Legislative Office Building.

Amazing bargain! Better than Sony EX51!
Apr 12, 2006
By Michael E. Lee "internet shopaholic"
I bought the Creative EP-630s, hoping for an inexpensive upgrade to my Sony MDR-EX51LP Fontopia earphones. While the Sonys have served me well for over a year, I wasn't fully satisfied with their overall sound. At the same time, I wasn't ready to shell out the serious money for Shure, UE, Senn, etc.
If you're looking for great earphones in the $30 range, these are an amazing bargain--and a clear upgrade over the Sony EX51s. You will not believe how great your music can sound for such a small investment!
Creative EP-630 vs. Sony MDR-EX51LP
* Definitely clearer trebles - You really do hear nuances in your music that you never noticed before! This is particularly true with vocals and high percussion.
* Firmer bass - Slightly firmer and fuller overall. Not a huge upgrade, but noticeable.
* Construction - The silicon earbuds are nearly identical for both earphones. However, the stem on the Creatives is more tapered, resulting in a more secure attachment. In other words, fewer lost earbuds.
* Louder. On my iPod, I now keep the volume at 60% instead of 80-90%.
* Slightly smaller profile in the ear.
* Considerable more cord noise from movement (clothes, wind, etc.). Not sure why. This is the only real con.
* $4 more expensive? Slightly harder to find online?
* Because of the smaller profile, they are a little harder to insert in the ear.
Other differences:
* Straight plug instead of L-plug. It's a tiny disadvantage on my iPod nano, because I must now unplug my earphones before unplugging the sync cable.
* Cable feels more rubbery than plastic.
* Y-shaped cord instead of J-shape. I like the J-shaped plug of the Sonys better to hang behind my neck, but this is trivial.
Overall, this is an absolute no-brainer. The Creatives sound better than the Sonys, at essentially the same price. I believe the sound is comparable to far more expensive headphones. Before shelling out $100+, I urge you to try these and see if you're satisfied. I definitely am.

I have USED this for over a year and a half, Hummer of Earphones
Nov 27, 2009
By VJYrus
Let me start of by saying that I have USED this for over a year and a half.
A day in the life of my iPod nano - pulling it, throwing it, biking with it, running/jogging with it, roll it up and chucking in the bag, untangling the cord when pulling it out, dropping the ipod and grabbing it at the last moment by the cord, rolling with it in my sleep etc. With such a life style every earphone started to give away after a few months. I needed something which does not tear at the seams, extremely flexible, should not loose shape, tough joint strength (ESPECIALLY at the PLUG) with great audio quality at a good price. This was a tough ask. But after ripping through 5 to 10 different brands of earphones in as many months, this CREATIVE earphone was the answer to all my wants.
Don't even have to comment on the sound quality, excellent in every aspect as given by the previous reviewers. The BUILD quality is amazing. First off the cord has a rubbery feel to it. If you tie a knot with the cord and untangle it, its all straight again. WOW. Secondly with all the bending and tugging at all the corners, it works just as great as it did the first day I got it. Mind you its going to be close two years. The only reason I happen to be reviewing it is that I was shopping around for a new ipod and came across this trusty companion. This will be the third ipod which will go on this same earphone.
Great job Creative, hope all your future products have the same quality.

Value, and one negative is a positive
Aug 30, 2006
By Mark Permann
I used to own the top of the line Shure E5c and loved them (I reviewed those also) but got rid of them because they were just too isolating for about-town use in NYC.
I do think these are a bit bass heavy (but then my other cans are Sennheiser PX200s, which many criticize as being too bass light - I think it's mostly a function of fit). But they sound VERY good for the price. They're small enough and cheap enough to wind around your fingers & toss in your pocket.
The only thing I don't really like about them is their thin, rubbery cord which doesn't drape well and feels really cheap. But you know what? I bet it was a conscious design descision because this rubbery cord is MUCH more impervious to tangling than the Shures I owned. It was always a mini-ordeal to undo the Shure cords because they had such "memory" that they tended to get tangled.
One other thing - I think they have a good balance of letting in the outside world while isolating enough to provide good sound. You don't have to push them in near as far as Shures to get a good seal.
Couple tips:
- I thought maybe I could try Shure tips on these, but no because the "neck" that the ear rubber fits around is too wide.
- Don't like wax? Here's a handy trick: go to your local drugstore and buy a box of alchohol swabs. They work out to about 2 cents a piece. You keep a couple in your pocket and when you need to take 'em out, you just wipe 'em down.

A very good sound at a very low cost
Nov 03, 2006
By Pindaro Pena Perello
I bought this earphones recently and after I tried I can only say I do not regret buying them... as the previous posters said, they appear to be very well built and the sound is awesome...
Overall the EP-630 are a very good choice, they have a very good sound quality in all ranges possible, the bass feels great as so does the high's and low's.
If you're the kind of person that might use them more often while in the train going to work, or while just sitting somewhere (staying still), you probably will like to buy this earphones 'casue for the price you won't find anything better than this and the sound they bring is awesome for that matter... this are the earphones for you to get
Now if you're more the kind of person that like to use them while walking or doing something you might think about it... don't get me wrong, the earphones are awesome, but in this kind of situations they tend to be a little annoying 'cause of the amplified noise coming from the cables hitting your cloth, and sometimes because of the wind... (it can be solved... keep reading)
I found a solution for that and is a simple one, if you pass the cables through your t-shirt or whatever (the cables would be betwen your skin and the t-shirt), the cables won't be dancing all over while walking and will stay still so that noise is gonna be gone and bye bye anoying noises (at least that's what I do)
so if you're looking for some low cost well built with great sound earphones I'd say you just found them... I do not regret buying them, I'm quite happy with my choice...

Good sound, but only with equalization
Mar 14, 2006
By MCC
These are fairly decent IEMs (In-Ear Monitors) for the price. If you don't hear any bass, you probably haven't pushed them in far enough.
When I first tried them with the pre-attached medium earpieces, I found them to have WAY too much bass to be listenable. The highs had almost no detail. Thankfully, the included small earpieces solved this problem by cutting down on the bass rather considerably. To get a good sound, however, I had to boost the treble and midrange a bit on my Cowon X5L's equalizer. Some music still has a bit more bass than I would like. That could just be me, though, since I'm used to the Sennheiser HD-280s (low bass volume, but the bass is 100% present and very dynamic). Since the sound depends on the seal they make in your ears, your results probably will vary. They do tend to carry cable motion noises directly into your ears (microphonics), but the effect isn't that bad. Once tweaked, the sound output is quite good for the price. The treble isn't quite as clear as I'd like it to be, but these aren't $100 IEMs. One bad thing: they are sensitive enough to easily pick up static that you might not have known your player even had. Thankfully, at least with my X5L, the static is quiet enough to be limited to spaces between songs.
If your digital audio player doesn't have a good equalizer and you're not a bass head, these probably aren't the IEMs for you. But, if you want a decent budget pair of IEMs that leak very little noise and do a good job keeping noise out, the EP-630s are a good choice. For those curious as to what my equalizer settings are, here they are: 1kHz +2dB, 4kHz +4 dB, and 12kHz +6 dB. The X5L does not have negative equalization settings, so these settings simply compensate for the bass. Although this equalizer profile works well for me, the sound you perceive depends entirely on the shape of your ear canal and the music player you use.
-Good isolation
-3 pairs of different sized ear tips
-More detail than anything else I've heard in this price range (including full-size headphones)
-Warm sound
-Excessive bass out of the box, still a bit much with significant equalization
-No protective case
-Microphonics can be a bit of an issue
-So sensitive that static can become apparent (the static itself from my HP laptop is so loud that it's almost at normal listening volume)
-Straight-plug design can put stress on your DAP's sound jack, especially if it's side-mounted.

Suddenly started.
4. Did you get any work opportunities and was he able to complete them ?
Once i got a "work opportunity" i could complete it and it counted as "working". Right now, i have no opportunities so she will not work. Meanwhile the experience bar lowers with the wonderful red words stating "missing work".
5. Did he miss any car pools at all ?
No car pool.
6. Does the car pool show up or does he have his own car ?
She has her own car, but refuses to drive to work. The carpool no longer shows up. I can make her go to the lot by not clicking "go to work" instead click "go here" but even when she's on the film lot, she will not work.
7. What symptoms do you see ?
Little bubble in the corner pops up for just a second stating she can go to work but cancels out. Well not cancels. Just disappears.

The University of Michigan-Flint is putting forth effort in the educating, enforcing, thinking and acting going beyond compliance! Protecting storm drains and stormwater from contaminants is done through a number of ways from: stenciling of storms drains, public awareness, employee training, utilization of best management practices, and looking into the future. The University of Michigan-Flint is continually looking for new ways to further improve water quality in the Flint River.
Campus Community Storm Water Education
EHS educates university staff, students, and the public on the importance of storm water management and how it effects surface water quality and our vital ecosystems as part of of our Storm Water Management Plan and in compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES).
Public Education and Outreach on Storm water Impacts - EPA's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
Monitor and Enforcement of Protective Actions
Monitoring and Enforcement of environmental requirements on the UM Flint Campus is accomplished through a sustained and collaborative effort on behalf of the University's EHS, DPS, F&O, and other departments on the Flint and Ann Arbor campuses. Several University environmental programs exist and administered through UM Flint EHS that provide clear guidelines when performing activities that may have the potential to impcat storm water , surface water, soil, or other environmental conditions. and resources. Some of these program include the following:
- NEW UM-Flint Storm Water Pollution Prevent Plan (SWPPP)
- University of Michigan Storm Water Management Program Plan (SWMPP)
- NEW University of Michigan's NPDES Annual Report -September 2014
- National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and MS4 Permits (Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems)
- Spill Prevention Control Countermeasure & Pollutant Incident Prevention Plan (SPCC & PIPP)
- Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control (SESC) - UM OSEH Procedure
- Environmental Due Care
- Proactive UM Contractor Safety Requirements
- UM-Flint Project Management incorporates an environmental review into the project management design and implementation process.
These programs work together to help improve storm and surface water quality.
Think & Act Going Beyond Compliance
How can we further enhance our collective efforts in stormwater management and surface water protection?
- Improving UM-Flint water discharge quality.
- Consistent monitoring and protecting of storm drains by university staff.
- Utilizing Best Management Practices (BMP's) or improving standard operating procedures.
- Containment of work site.
- Monitor and enforce BMP's internally and with contractors.
Expanding our environmental stewardship of our campus community and pushing to further improve environmental quality, particularly water quality of the Flint River and the Flint River Watershed is beneficial to ensure the future of our natural resources.

ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta police say they're going to begin charging standard towing fees for cars that were abandoned as traffic jams left drivers stranded during a snowstorm earlier this week.
ORLANDO, Fla. — AAA, The Auto Club Group and Bud Light are teaming up to offer intoxicated drivers in Florida, Georgia and Tennessee a free ride home during Super Bowl weekend.
AAA says that its "Tow to Go" service to discourage intoxicated driving began Friday morning and will be available through 6 a.m. on Monday. The service is offered at the availability of AAA drivers and will tow a vehicle, and give confidential rides for up to two people within a 10-mile radius. It is free to both AAA members and non-members.
ATLANTA — Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal is expected to announce members of a special taskforce assembled in the aftermath of last week's snow and ice storm.
The governor will publicly name the members of the Severe Weather Warning Task Force during a news conference at 1:15 p.m. Monday at the state Capitol.
Deal's administration has been under intense scrutiny since a storm that dropped about 2 inches of snow brought traffic on metro Atlanta's highways to a grinding stop. Tens of thousands of people were stranded on icy and gridlocked roads.
ATLANTA — A 34-year-old man is accused of using a tow truck to take cars that were abandoned in Atlanta during the winter storm and traffic jam.
Police said Louis Mitchell Jr. was arrested Thursday and charged with auto theft, forgery and other offenses. It's not clear whether he has an attorney.
Atlanta Police Sgt. Greg Lyon told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that a police officer saw an unmarked tow truck pulling a car. The truck fled when the officer tried stopping it. The driver and passenger fled the truck during a chase, sending it crashing.
Oconee County authorities said no one was injured in an armed robbery this morning at the Walmart on Epps Bridge Road after what deputies are saying was a man dressed as a woman who committed the crime.

Baby allowed at wedding ceremony but not reception?
My husband and I were asked to stand up in a wedding that allows children at the ceremony, but not the reception. Because of where we live, we don't know of anyone in the area that we trust to babysit our baby girl so we asked a long time friend to babysit that lives about 90 miles from us. The plan was that she would come pick up the baby the day before the wedding (since she will be in town then anyway) and keep her until the morning after the wedding where we would pick her up. Now my MiL is very angry at us that our baby won't be at the wedding for family pictures and thinks we should let someone that she knows in the area babysit so she can be at the ceremony but we're not comfortable leaving her for the night with someone that neither we nor our baby knows. Am I a bad person for not having my baby at the ceremony?

No. Don't let your MIL get to you. You and your husband are in charge of who watches your daughter. Personally I think you're making the best decision. Really no kid wants to sit at a wedding ceremony and be quiet and bored. Pictures or not your daughter will be happier where she is. Not to mention you and your husband can have a relaxing evening/night away. Just stick to your guns.posted 08/29/2010 by MommyakaMrsWarner
You are doing the right thing. I wouldn't want to leave my baby with someone unless I knew he was comfortable with them. I don't see why the MIL thinks she is in control of what happens with your child. Hmmm...kind of sounds like some bs my MIL would pull (could we be related, haha, jk). I would stick to your gones. I have never heard of the whole, you can bring your baby to the wedding, but not the reception before. Kind of silly if you ask me. If anything, I'd think it would be the other way around, but hey.posted 09/11/2010 by SecForcesMom2B
You've been asked to stand up at the person's wedding and they want your baby there then they get your baby at the reception OR no baby at the wedding. That seems reasonable to me. Your child is more important than your friends.posted 10/07/2010 by Gideons_mom
I would be very uncomfortable leaving my baby overnight so far away personally. I would rather have them with someone I didn't know (but had good reccomendations) right there (like in a hotel room if the reception is at a hotel for instance). My son was in my brothers wedding when he was two. I knew the reception would be a bit much for him so he came for a little while then he went to a hotel room with a teenager who I knew from church who watched him. He came to visit the reception a few times, and if I was needed I was right there for him. Best of both worlds a child free night, but he was right thereposted 10/31/2010 by Sarah Faith
No, stick to your guns. At my SIL's wedding, my husband, myself, and our oldest child were ALL asked to be in the wedding. We agreed, and left our baby with my parents for the day and evening. We also took some heat for not bringing the baby - seriously? How in the world were we supposed to take care of a baby through a long, long wedding event when ALL of us were expected to be dressed to the nines, posing for pictures, participating in wedding dances, etc.? Some people don't think.posted 11/22/2010 by betsychem
I don't get why people are mad that children wouldn't be invited to a reception. Just because you can fit several hundred people in a church doesn't mean that the bride and groom have enough money to drop $50-100 a head for all of those people. Sometimes, people just can't afford to feed the people they want at their wedding, plus all 100 of their children. If an open bar is involved, it's probably not the best place for children to be, anyway.posted 12/01/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
no your not a bad person you should leave your baby with who you feel comfortable with and if it means not having the baby at the wedding then so be it the baby will be in more then enough pictures over the course of their life one day aint going to hurtposted 11/13/2010 by jwillis101010
Maybe MIL could skip the reception and take care of the baby? my mom did that with the grandkids often it was a great excuse to leave earlyposted 10/15/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
I also agree...you have to decide what you are comfortable with. We had a similar situation...we were invited to a wedding and reception when our oldest was 2. We knew he'd be ok for the ceremony, but the reception was too late for him, and we knew he wouldn't last. My parents (where we were staying for the wedding, which they were also going to), had a neighbor, whose teenage daughter (who I had met once), who did a lot of babysitting, and my parents trusted her. We did take our son to the wedding (which went well) and then drove him back to my parent's house, where the babysitter stayed with him while we went to the reception. This worked for us because my son is a very friendly kid, who liked new people, and it didn't bother him in the least. However, if he were an infant, a kid who wasn't fond of new people, or I had never met the babysitter, I don't think we would have gone that route! Do what works for you...you don't want to be worrying the whole time!posted 08/30/2010 by Rin68nyr
I agree with MommyakaMrsWarner, you shouldn't feel guilty for the decision you made. Doesn't matter what your MIL feels should happen, its what you're comfortable with and decided on.posted 08/30/2010 by peanutwitt

|Travel Costs in New England
|New England is not the cheapest part of the USA, but you get value for money here, whether you're buying dinner or a room for the night.
Surveys name Boston as the second most expensive city in the USA for tourists (after New York City).
The main culprit is hotel prices, but other travel expenses—parking, attractions, etc.—are up there as well.
But Boston is not all of New England, so a New England vacation need not break your budget. Besides, there are ways to enjoy even the pleasures of Boston at discounted prices.
Here are some general budget guidelines for daily costs, per person. These costs assume two people are traveling together, sharing lodging and, in the case of a rental car, transportation:
Budget Travel: $40 to $70
Stay in hostels and camping areas, travel by bus, make your own picnics at least once a day, and choose value-for-money fast food, and you can travel New England for $40 to $70 per person per day. More...
Moderate-Cost Travel: $60 to $125
Choose suburban motels and B&B guest houses near (but not in) the expensive cities and resort areas, visit cities on weekends and resorts from Sunday through Thursday, rent a car for a week or more (using your own car insurance, not the rental company's), choose restaurant meals carefully, have the occasional picnic, and you can travel for $60 to $125 per person, per day.
Comfort Travel: $125 to $200
On this budget, you can stay in city-center hotels and country inns, dine in good (but not deluxe) restaurants some days, travel by comfortable rental car, and spend from $125 to $200 per person, per day.
Luxury Travel: $200+
Living among the 1%, there's no limit to what you can spend on the top hotels, inns, resorts, cars and flights, and the best restaurants.

Should I freeze my chocolate?
Freezing chocolate isn't necessary; however, if you're planning to keep your chocolate for a couple of months, place package in two plastic bags, close tightly and freeze. When you are ready to eat your chocolates, take out of the freezer and allow the chocolates to thaw until they reach room temperature while still in the plastic bags. Typically one box will require 5-6 hours.
Can I ship chocolate?
Absolutely! Shipping chocolate is a great way to treat your
friends, clients, co-workers and family for any occasion.
Ultimate Confections ships via UPS standard ground. If you
require faster service, just let us know.
Can I ship chocolate-dipped strawberries?
Due to the perishable nature of fresh strawberries, we do not ship them.
What about high-altitude baking?
Unless you live, or plan to bake above 2,500 feet, you do not need to worry. If you live above 2,500 feet, here are some helpful tips to keep in mind:
To combat these potential problems (the adjustment amount varies based on actual altitude):
What sugar substitute does your Sugar-Free Chocolate line use?
The sugar substitute used in our sugar free chocolates is called maltitol. Maltitol is a sugar alcohol (polyol) that is not a monosaccharide or disaccharide, therefore, it is not classified as a sugar. Using maltitol in production of chocolate confections is ideal because it is difficult to taste or see any difference. Maltitol is also known as Maltisorb® crystalline maltitol.
What is white chocolate?
White chocolate is actually considered a coating because it does not contain cocoa powder, which is a component of chocolate.
What kind of chocolate does Ultimate Confections use?
We use Wilbur® Chocolate. Wilbur is located in Lititz, Pa.

You know what the biggest disappointment is about this week's stock market crash? A distinct lack of investors and tycoons leaping out of windows. At least in the Great Depression, common citizens could comfort themselves with the dull splatting sound of dickwads hitting the pavement as they walked down to the local applecart. I'm half convinced that the real reason the New Deal worked as well as it did is because the suiciding investors culled the fucking herd of greedy douchebags.
You know who I blame? Donald Trump. He's the living embodiment of the selfish 80s mentality that festered and grew and then decayed into a zombie shell of its former self. Plus, he's a show-off and a drama queen. If ANYONE should be making a grand, gravity-assisted statement about fiscal ruin, it's The Donald, and if he went, the rest of them would follow him over the edge like the apocryphal lemmings. Apocryphal lemmings with MBAs from state universities.
In case you were wondering what I, your humble auteur, thought was the single biggest dick move Gramps McGrumps pulled during the second presidential debate, well, it wasn't "That one." Oh, sure, some could argue that "that one" is the grammatical singular form of "those people", but it still doesn't measure up to McCain's giant, throbbing dick move - calling the heart of a planetarium an "overhead projector".
Planetariums are cool. You know how cool planetariums are? Planetariums are cool EVEN AFTER you take into account their showings of Laser Floyd. That's some serious cool held in reserve. And do not lump precision motorized machinery that can simulate the entire visible universe with movement choreographed perfectly to a 25-year-old recording of Carl Sagan's voice in with that overheated gray box that throws PowerPoint on the wall. Earmark my ass.
Planetariums are also a perfect example of what government is good for. If it were up to the private sector, there would never be any planetariums, because most of you fuckers out there would rather go see Beverly Hills Chihuahua than Betelgeuse and Cassiopeia. But government can make planetariums possible in spite of your horrible taste in projected entertainment, and thus children around the world will learn about the majesty of the universe without being told a bearded hippie died so that little boys would never touch their peepees until marriage.
And a quick update on our buddy David Zucker and his desperate attempt at conservative comedy, "An American Carol".
It seems that somehow, Zucker and Vivendi Entertainment failed to estimate the actual audience for stale pro-war jokes about Michael Moore and hippies that weren't funny back in the halcyon days when we all thought those yellow ribbon magnets were a meaningful gesture of sacrifice. It came in ninth for the week, doing just over $2,000 per screen, and somehow managing to do worse than the second-week grosses of "Fireproof", in which Kirk Cameron, I shit you not, saves his marriage thanks to a ridiculous month-long stunt proposed by his newly religious father.
And I'd just like to say this to all the conservative columnists out there, chock full of insane conspiracy theories as to why the public failed to embrace Zucker's masterpiece, ranging from John McCain's slump in the polls to an organized plot by minimum-wage ticket-takers to redirect Carol's numbers to "Beverly Hills Chihuahua". If it was sad and stupid when the Browncoat nerds did it, it's even more pathetic and crazy when you do it. Also, HA HA HA HA HA. Fuckwits.

Namco Bandai Games America Inc. announced earlier today, that it will be bringing a 2D robot-combat game inspired by the "Tenkai Knights" TV series on Cartoon Network to the Nintendo 3DS this summer.
In "Tenkai Knights", a once beaten enemy, named Vilius, returns after thousands of years following his defeat at the hands of the Tenkai Knights. Now, a new generation of Tenkai Knights must once again try to hold an old enemy at bay.
"Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle" will allow players to take on the role of one of four "Tenkai Knights" heroes and battle it out in 2D robot combat through either a mission-based Story mode, or they can compete against up to three friends via a Versus mode. Gamers will be able to customize their robots using a variety of parts, enter various unit modes to support allies in battle and modify battle styles to exploit the enemy's weaknesses.
Fans of the Cartoon Network TV series can look for "Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle" to be available for the Nintendo 3DS in the summer of 2014. More information about the game and its release date can be expected soon.

The North Shore extends from La Cruz up to Punta de Mita.
A new road in 2000 catalyzed a wave of development, with new projects featuring private coves and gorgeous beaches. All have great views. The faint silhouette of the Sierra Madre looms in the distance.
The area offers natural beauty, but not much else. To the south is La Cruz; to the north, Punta de Mita ... two modest towns.
Punta de Mita is an island of cinderblock inside a rich enclave.
La Cruz is a dusty town in flux. Along with a huge new marina, there are plans for a five-star harbor hotel and residential towers. The town will be unrecognizable in a few years ... for better or worse.

Kevin that is completely false information. If your file is corrupted you can't read it into your PC. And most recovery (actually all that I tried can't fix a corrupted MTS files). Recovery sftw only address deleted files.
Podge the only way I found to recover your corrupted MTS file is by going to this link and downloading Panasonic's wonderful ap. It's easy to use and is very powerful.

Someone called me last month. I know date and approximate time, but I'm unable to see that call in my iPhone. Is there any way to do this?
There's no way to see the true call history as a proper timeline through the iPhone, although with a bit of work it can be achieved however apps like PhoneView allow you to see your call history as individual, historical calls.
When you connect to the app, it downloads your call history for you, and you can then clear it on the iPhone without losing the history in the app.
Now, one of the things that the iPhone history does is try to group conversations into one event. If you compare my call log from my iPhone and from PhoneView below.
This first image is the output from PhoneView, showing a list of all my calls for most of a week in February, date ascending.
The second image is a screen cap of my iPhone call history for the same time frame, dates descending just to confuse you.
As you can see, the iPhone does some grouping on calls, both incoming and outgoing, to the same number. Note that 11 calls on the 10th, plus 2 each from the 12th and 13th, and finally one on the 14th appear against the call log for the 14th making a total of 16 calls.
Here's what the iPhone tells us about that grouping (thats by pressing the blue arrow next to the item)
So what does this tell us:

Starkville, Miss. – Six Top-30 teams will join Mississippi State in Texas this weekend for the second-annual Bayou City Collegiate Championship, co-hosted by the University of Houston and Rice University.
The three-day event, held in Houston, Texas, from Feb. 21-23, will feature 54 holes of golf from the par-72 6,982-yard Golf Club of Houston.
In the tournament's inaugural season, the University of Texas beat Houston by 21 strokes.
"It's always exciting to start up another season of golf," Bulldog head coach Clay Homan said. "We look forward to competing on a great course against some great competition. Just like everyone else, we are still knocking off some of the rust from the off-season, but the bottom line is, we have to be ready to play at a high level this weekend.
"We are starting three seniors who have a lot of tournament experience and two freshmen who have each played only one collegiate tournament in their lives. Each time you compete you find out a little bit more about yourself. It will be a good test for us to see where we are and what we have to do to get better."
The Bayou City field will feature some of the best talent in the nation, with No. 19 Arkansas, No. 31 Baylor, Charlotte, No. 15 Houston, Houston Baptist, Lamar, Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisiana Tech, New Mexico State, Rice, No. 29 South Carolina, No. 14 South Florida, No. 21 Texas and UTSA joining the Bulldogs.
Despite tying a school record, MSU finished third last time out at the Warrior Princeville Makai Invitational (WPMI). The Bulldogs turned in a 38-under-par 826 to tie the program's all-time record set in 1983.
Seniors Chad Ramey, Joe Sakulpolphaisan and Axel Boasson will lead Homan's squad in State's spring opener, with junior Jackson Dick and freshman Dalton Conn rounding out the Maroon and White scorecard.
Ramey (T2nd) and Sakulpolphaisan (5th) each posted a Top-5 card at the WPMI.
MSU will tee off Friday at 9:45 a.m., alongside New Mexico State and Charlotte.

Today I'm talking to you laptop users. You are now the majority of computer owners.
Here's one quick rule for long laptop battery life.
Don't leave your electrical cord/charger plugged in all the time. That's right, unplug it until the computer notifies you to plug it in to charge the battery up. If you operate with the power cord always plugged in, your battery will quickly learn that it serves no purpose and it will become lazy and weak.
If you leave the laptop plugged in all the time, then unplug suddenly because you have a need to use it somewhere remote, don't be surprised if the battery runs completely down in ten minutes or so.
Rechargeable batteries need to work for a living or they die. It's a little more trouble to plug and unplug the power cord every two to three hours but it's good to know you can rely on the battery when you want to browse the Web out by the pool.
Speaking of out by the pool. I bet Jeff has just the thing for the last swim of summer.
Wine of the week: Line 39 Sauvignon Blanc 2012
In the old days, which in wine means the end of the 20th century, sauvignon blanc came in three styles — California, French, and New Zealand. Each tasted like sauvignon blanc, but was just enough different from each other to be noticeable. Some time after that, the first two styles started to merge toward the third, so that most sauvignon blanc tasted like grapefuit. That's because the New Zealand style was about as trendy as trendy gets, and we know how the wine business loves a trend.
Fortunately, the styles have started moving back to where they used to be, and especially in California. I've tasted a variety of delightful California sauvignon blanc over the past 18 months, where grassiness — the smell of a freshly-cut lawn — is the predominant note. There is also citrus and tropical fruit, but those don't overwhelm the grassiness, and the wines are refreshing and enjoyable.
A fine example of this change is the Line 39 ($10, purchased, 13.5%), which has worked its way from New Zealand to California over the past several years. In this, it was always more than adequate, but has improved the more California in style that it has become. The 2012, which is apparently the current vintage though a bit old, is grassy, with lime fruit and rich mouth feel. All of this makes it more than just another grocery store sauvignon blanc. Highly recommended, and a candidate for the 2015 $10 Hall of Fame.
Thanks, Jeff, for the rec!
Ciao, sweeties,

I'm sitting in the house at the Dorset Theatre Festival as my crew finishes applying molding and other detail touches to the set for Clybourne Park, our last show of the season. This production was coproduced with Barrington Stage in Massachusetts, and as part of the cost-sharing discussion, we decided it would be smart to split the physical labor--have some of the set built by our shop here, and some built in the shop at Barrington.

I found myself staring at a designer drawing of a simple porch column the other day: about 14' tall, with a 3'-tall brick base and a tapered square profile above. I started drawing it, and then stopped. I was stuck--thinking about different views, different construction techniques, different material choices. It was a little frustrating, frankly, but not all that uncommon: I often find myself spending a lot of mental energy thinking about how to build a piece of scenery--even the seemingly…Continue

Below Art Blakeslee pictured with show cars all penned by Dan Abramson apart from Eco 2000 which was by Scott Yu
Left to right: Eco 2000 - Xanae - Berlingo Bulle - Activa - Activa 2
The Citroën ECO 2000 was much more than just an exercise in styling. Developed during the period 1981 to 1984, it was used to research economical, low weight, low drag cars intended for the next millenium. Many of the lessons learned were applied to the forthcoming AX . ECO 2000 was part of a 50% French State funded programme to build a car capable of achieving 2 litres per 100 km fuel consumption.
A number of different scale models were built and tested in a wind tunnel resulting eventually in a vehicle with a Cd factor 0,22. Three prototypes were built:- SA 103, SA 109, SA 117 and SL 10 - the definitive version.
SL 10 weighed 450kg and was powered by a three cylinder 750 cc engine developed from Fiat's Fire 1000 developing 35 bhp at 4 750 rpm. The first prototype (SA 103) empoyed a rear mounted twin cylinder engine but subsequent versions had the engine mounted at the front and front wheel drive.
Suspension was hydropneumatic with electronically controlled, speed sensitive ride height.
Top speed was 140 kph and overall fuel consumption at 3,5 litres per 100 km missed the target. However, the car managed 2,1 litres per 100 km at 90 kph while managing to cover the standing kilometre in 40 seconds.

If you would actually consider cooking and consuming recipes from Natural Harvest - A Collection of Semen-Based Recipes by Fotie Photenhauer ($25), you're a more culinarily adventurous woman than any of us. The only part of the whole deal we'd be up for is harvesting the star ingredient. Could this replace owls and ironic wolf t-shirts as the new hipster thing, though? "I liked serving burgers with my own special sauce before it was cool." OK, how grossed out are you right now? Tell us in the comments. Scale of one (I'm buying and using this book like yesterday!) to 10 (I can't ever eat hollandaise again after seeing this and I hate you guys.).
Guys, honestly. Where do you find this shit?
10, this is disgustiiinng
I'm gonna have to go with, on a scale of 1 to 10, 15. Funny, yes, but no way in HELL would I ever even touch that book, let alone make something from it.
"Er, honey, I need your help with an ingredient for a recipe."
'You need me to go to the grocery store?'
"Not quite...."
How does someone even come up with the idea to write this book?! The most disturbing thing is that someone actually had to experiment creating these recipes.....EWWW!
How is this not a Doubtblush?
This is awful - how did you possibly think this was a good idea to post.
I'm not ashamed to say it: this is hilarious!! It exudes over-the-top vom-inducing trash. C'mon, live a little people... can you imagine what ridiculously fun friend the chick who wrote this would be?! Bwhahaha tasteless raunchy humor, gets me every time.
So, I went to the site for this book, and I am even more disturbed than I was before - there are people in the comments talking about semen as a protein possibility for vegetarians...
Hahahahahahaha this is horribly discusting yet terribly funny! I love your crappy humor ;)
Gonna leave this on the nightstand and scare the crap out of my boyfriend!
It's a gag, right? (Pun intended)

text: Jun 29, 2014 08:23 Letter: Politicians expanding debt Letter: Politicians expanding debt Advocate story June 22, 2014; 3:22 p.m. Comments Mary Landrieu's latest television ad featuring her father testing her commitment to spending on a host of social programs is emblematic of everything that is wrong with politics. Landrieu is for spending on everything, of course, and implies that her opponent is not. In truth, every politician understands that his or her job is dependent upon bringing home the bacon. With federal debt exceeding $17 trillion, no one seems to care that future generations will bear the brunt of that burden. The unborn don't vote and whatever spending priorities they might have don't matter. In their quest for votes, politicians have ignored Thomas Jefferson's admonition that every generation must pay its own debts. Instead, our politicians placate us by spending now and condemning our offspring to penury. That's quite a legacy. Geoffrey Snodgrass lawyer New Orleans Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

Well, it was bound to happen. Our friends in Colorado have been enjoying their recreational marijuana so much that they've even come up with new ways to ingest it. Bravo! Our friends over at Thrillist have tracked down the brewmaster responsible for the act and asked him a few questions about how it's actually done. Check out an excerpt below and head over to Thrillist to find out how to make the beer at home!
Thrillist: What sort of high does weed beer give you?
brad1775: You'd get the same high as you would eating an edible (like a pot brownie), since both beer and food go through your intestines. Smoking your weed is so 2000-and-late.
Thrillist: Which style of beer will taste best with weed in it?
brad1775: He's tried a whole slew of them, and has found any style of beer with hops in it works best: IPAs and Imperial IPAs being ideal. Turns out that weed and hops are "close relatives in the field", which makes them natural bedfellows in beer.
