Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

BYU football: Cougar backups contribute in blowout victory
Tom Smart, Deseret News
BYU football: Cougars take care of business against Weber State
PROVO — One of the best things about a comfortable win is the opportunity for coaches to clear their bench. BYU coaches did just that during much of the second half in their team's 45-13 win over Weber State.
Second, third and even fourth-team players saw plenty of action in the later stages of the game and responded well.
"It was good for morale," said head coach Bronco Mendenhall about emptying his bench. "It was good for these guys, they work hard and it was good to get them to go play football."
Many new faces found their names on the stat sheet while others contributed in ways that didn't show up in the stats. One of those players was injury-plagued tight end Devin Mahina who contributed an 18-yard reception to set up BYU at Weber's 1-yard line. A play later quarterback Taysom Hill snuck the ball in for the Cougars' final score of the game.
Mahina was primed to compete for and even secure the starting tight end position at the start of fall practices, but sustained a broken hand just one week into the practice session. He's since battled back and will in no doubt benefit from Saturday's performance.
Defensive end Bronson Kaufusi recorded his first sack of his career late in the fourth quarter just six months removed from his LDS mission service to Auckland, New Zealand. The former Timpview standout wasn't out there for the first time, having logged time during passing situations against Washington State last week, but saw extended time late in the fourth quarter.
"It felt great — it was amazing," said Kaufusi about the first sack of his career. "I haven't had that feeling for a long time, but it felt amazing and I hope it's the first of many."
Kaufusi is still getting back into game shape, but has taken a crash course in providing good and consistent play since returning home.
"I ask a lot of questions and I'm pretty sure the guys get sick of me asking so many questions, but I want to learn and I want to learn fast," said Kaufusi. "I'm still getting used to playing, but today was great because it's one thing to practice and then actually get a sack."
One of those players he's been loading up with questions is senior defensive lineman Eathyn Manumaleuna. Like most of the defensive starters, Manumaleuna was able to sit back and observe his understudies at work.
"It helps them learn and grow and get that experience," said Manumaleuna. "We want them to be prepared for the upcoming games and the upcoming seasons and things like that, so it's great to see them get in, get their timing, get experience and more of a feel (of game situations)."
Prominent among the bench players benefiting from the extra playing time were backup quarterbacks James Lark and Taysom Hill. Lark led the offense in the third quarter — scoring a touchdown run of six yards — his first in his career. Hill took over in the fourth quarter and scored his second touchdown in as many games.

Does Kyabram have too many meeting places?
Kyabram has too many meeting places according to a Council commissioned report.March 26, 2014 4:44am
A draft report Campaspe Shire Council commissioned believes Kyabram has an oversupply of community meeting places and facilities..
The Kyabram Places of Assembly/Community Facilities Study included a concept plan for the future of Kyabram Town Hall and also details recommendations for 14 places of assembly in and around Kyabram.
The town hall was a hot topic of conversation at the time and council received several submissions on that aspect of the report, but none about the other places of assembly.
Council's community places and programs spokeswoman Carol Howell said she believed the study would be a landmark document for council.
''Not only will it pave the way to maximise the future use of places of assembly and community facilities in Kyabram, it will also serve as a model to ensure these facilities across the shire are effectively managed and serve as vibrant places for entertainment and social gatherings by the public,'' Cr Howell said.
''Really we have got too many halls in the town when you think about it.''

Travelled with another couple en route from France to San Francisco and after a lot of research we are so pleased we chose the Anglers which is, as other reviewers say, a small elegant and refined hotel which is always so much nicer than staying in any old run-of-the-mill-chain hotel. We had Studio King rooms with a balcony which were excellent, they were very spacious and equipped with everything we needed. For those smokers out there, they do allow smoking on the balconies so long as the door to the room is kept closed of course. We ended up eating dinner at the hotel every night as we'd been out and about all day and the food was excellent, innovative and fresh. The same should be said for breakfast which, it should be noted is NOT your typical buffet breakfast, but completely a la carte (which does add to the price somewhat).
And, we can't say enough for the wonderful, friendly staff who simply could not do enough to please everyone without being gushy or phoney. Especially want to thank Samuel Imoh, Carlos and John (from Columbia) and all the others whose names I cannot now remember.
So, cannot recommend this hotel highly enough and would definitely return if we ever end up again in Miami.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Nestled deep just off Washington Avenue one would not expect to find a unique collection of accommodations and lushly landscaped atmosphere that promises to instill a sense of relaxation the moment you enter. Privacy by design, on rooftop terraces, private gardens and private Jacuzzis. The pool is a perfect retreat to bask in by sun or moon. Unlike most hotels, at The Angler's you will instantly feel as though you are in a friends home, with furnishings, fixtures and services that meet even the most discriminating traveler. Stay a night, a week or longer. This is your new home away from home. Four legged friends are welcome too. Choose your suite for the perfect retreat for family, friends, honeymoon, girlfriend's getaway, business trip, long holiday, special occasion or just a break from the ordinary. This is a charming and lovely taste of the tropics, as never before seen in South Beach. With a subtle mix of international flavor and style clientele from all parts of the globe, all will convene and feel welcome. At once the hotel is discreet while managing to be the center of the attention all at the same time. Energies flow amongst tower suites, garden lounge, and intimate communal pool where relaxing or growing your circle of friends is the order of the day. With a unique approach melding fine island living with historic charm and elegance, we invite you to come be a part of The Angler's. Step into an era of simple yet stylish beauty and sophistication. Spacious Studios and Duplex Suites offer a new level of hospitality that you are sure to enjoy.

The firm says the money will serve as "the anchor investment" for the new control buyout H&QAP fund. The ultimate Palo Alto, California-based H&Q Asia Pacific (H&QAP) has been awarded $200 million by South Korea's National Pension Corporation (NPC). The firm says the money will serve as "the anchor investment" for the new control buyout H&QAP fund.The ultimate fund size will range up to $400 million. This is also the first time that the South Korean pension system has opened up to private equity.H&QAP's Korea team formed a consortium with Korean financial institutions, including Hyundai Securities and Wise Asset Management, to participate in the bidding and selection process. Korea's Shinhan Private Equity, an affiliate of the Shinhan Financial Group, was also chosen to receive an anchor investment of $150 million."The Korean government has shown great leadership and vision by beginning to invest in its domestic private equity industry and we are very proud to be their partner in this important initiative," says Dr. Ta-lin Hsu, founder and Chairman of H&Q Asia Pacific. "We believe that the Korean economy offers many attractive opportunities for late-stage private equity investors and we look forward to working closely with our consortium partners for the benefit of our investors and portfolio companies. The addition of this new Korea fund to the H&QAP family reflects both the value of our regional network and the strength of our Korea team."The new fund will make all of the investments domestically and is expected to start making investments in the second half of this year."The National Pension Corporation's selection process showed a high degree of rigour and a deep commitment to invigorate Korea's indigenous private equity industry," says Peter P.J. Ko, managing director, H&QAP Korea. "We are very honoured to have been chosen from such a group of successful and prestigious financial institutions. Under the sponsorship of the NPC and together with our consortium partners, the strategy of the new Korea fund will focus on late-stage control and buyout opportunities, which reflects a continuation of our successful track record in Korea."Established in 1987, the Korean National Pension Corporation is the eighth largest national pension fund in the world and also the largest investor of private equity funds in South Korea.

place smelled of moldPosted Jun 3, 2016
Pros: Our kids liked the golf cart that Westover around in.
Cons: Maint, housekeeping, spiders galore in the house, too many things to list.
Location: Was a pretty place all around the ocean but you have to be ok with the local "attitudes" no Bueno.
A person we met there also had a rat that had babies in one of the rooms in her villa. Showed us the video. Poor construction. Our place was not that old, maybe 4-6 years but kitchen equipment was rusty (blender) fridge did not get cold. Not kept well. This place is a real estate project. Beach was pretty but very bad current in deep holes not too far out from beach. Was not impressed.

Luxuriöses ResortPosted Apr 13, 2016
Edler Strand, nur Abendessen besser im nahe gelegenen Hostel
by A verified traveler from Ketchum, Idaho
Enjoyable and AdventurousPosted Mar 31, 2016
Pros: Clean, quiet
Cons: Faucets in bathroom quality needs to be improved. Some coffee filters. Some laundry soap. More shampoo and soap after day 2
Location: Zip lining, Yoga (at Palmar), surfing, adventuring
The rooms and location were amazing. The staff incredible and beyond friendly. The real draw for our family's active desires, though, was the resort down the beach (a tent lodge), which offered yoga classes, a bar and restaurant, surf lessons and fun people watching. The Red Frog resort was pretty quiet - totally great, but not what we were looking for all week. We saw the new clubhouse under construction, which will probably address some of the things this resort lacks to keep visitors "on site". Overall the entire island was fun and variable, which is what made staying at Red Frog Resort a blast all in all. Zip Lining was THE BEST!

Bom para descansarPosted Mar 29, 2016 on Hotels
O "quarto", que na verdade era um chalet, na verdade era grande, mas com comodos separados: para ir ao banheiro tinhamos que sair do quarto. Acho que não demos muita sorte. No geral, o atendimento no Red Frog é ótimo, e as praias/paisagens são muito bonitas.

Excelente resort para completa relajaciónPosted Mar 28, 2016 on Hotels
El resort en si no es un hotel sino un conjunto de villas que los propietarios rentan, dicho esto, las villas son gigantes, bien distribuidas y muy bien cuidadas. Las playas son espectaculares y se puede practicar surf allí mismo si se desea, la atención del personal del resort fue en general muy buena. Lo único para mejorar sería la variedad de comidas que ofrecen en sus restaurantes pues el menú es un poco escaso, pero sin embargo el sabor de la comida es muy bueno.

Unpleasant surprisePosted Mar 19, 2016
Pros: The beaches
Cons: Train their staff which lacks experience. More restaurant availability and extended hours. Towels at the beach. House Phones along the road and beach.
Location: Location is good. We didn't do any activities.
This is not a 4 star hotel as they advertised! They Only have two mediocre restaurants, one is closed on Mondays , the other is closed on Tuesdays. Pretty bad food and few options to choose From. If you decide to go( which I don't recommend) call in advance and Make sure you get a gulf cart. They don't have enough carts and without it you are doomed!!! Distances from the villas to the beach and to the restaurants are long! Not really walking distance. The road is unpaved and there are no direction signs. At night there is no lighting on the roads. One can easily get lost. Make sure you buy some groceries at Bocas de Toro before you leave for the resort because there is no service at the beach or room service. The villas lack personality. I don't recommend this place at all!!!
by A verified traveler from chicago
read before you bookPosted Mar 10, 2016
You must rent a golf cart or you can't get around. You must get a ton of groceries before you water taxi. The food is terrible. The bugs in the villa and pool were terrible. The beach is pretty and staff is nice.
by A verified traveler from Guayaquil, Ecuador
Excelente paisaje CaribeñoPosted Feb 29, 2016
Pros: La vista de nuestra villa era espectacular
Cons: Aun que el desayuno era bueno, en el area de comidas pueden mejorar los platos que ofrecen y la calidad.
Location: Es turismo aventura, ir a otra isla, hacer ziplines. Nosotros alquilamos kayaks y nos pudimos topar con delfines, fue una gran experiencia.
El personal del hotel en todo momento fue muy amable y las instalaciones fueron de los mas cómodas, el servicio es personalizado.

Paradise in naturePosted Feb 7, 2016
The place is amazing, surrounded by incredible beaches. The accomodation is very comfortable with an excellent view either to the jungle and/or beach. The staff is vey nice. Canopy and all the tours to different islands are very good. The services in the zone (not at the hotel) are quite well, but if you are looking for excellence services you should avoid going to Bocas del Toro and surroundings. Nice fresh food like fisch, shrimps and lobster is the specialty. Avoid at all cost doing surf classes with the guys at Bibi's.

End-user computing devices have followed a trajectory of faster, smaller, and cheaper for several decades: adding better connectivity, more natural interfaces, but largely remaining a device with a screen and human input device. This model is breaking down as computation and connectivity collide with ordinary real-world things. These things often have existing physical methods of interacting with them that we culturally don't want to change or no interface at all.
I've been involved with devices for much of my professional career, starting with television set top boxes at Microsoft for the better part of a decade, then working in mobile as part of the Android team at Google, and most recently in the Internet of Things at Nest Labs before rejoining Microsoft as part of our platform strategy team. In my current role, one of my focus areas has been to think about so called Internet of Things and what that means for the industry, for Microsoft, and for enterprises and consumers.
It's clear to me that the future of computing lies in these things. The screens in our lives will slowly start to take a back seat to a model of computing that operates off of the context that we generate. In this sense, computing will take a much more active role in our lives but at the same time much more invisible. That said there are substantial challenges in getting from where we are today to this future, and I thought I'd survey those problems and potential solutions.
In the broader Internet, we've started to think about connectivity as a given. The pervasiveness of networks and the consolidation of the industry around cellular standards like LTE and wireless standards like 802.11 mean that, for our computing devices, we are almost always connected and the design of applications has shifted from primarily offline to primarily online to match this.
One of the key challenges in the Internet of Things is that it doesn't fit cleanly into this. The existing set of wireless and cellular standards are wholly unsuited for long longevity battery use - they are designed for devices, like our computer or phone, that are always or frequently connected to a power plug.
A door lock is a good example of a real-world device. It isn't connected to a power plug. While one solution could be to change or charge the batteries in your door lock once a month so that it can use Wi-Fi, when you step back and realize that there are hundreds of these devices in the home, it's clear that this would quickly limit our desire to manage more than a handful of these in our houses.
Rethinking then how we connect these devices is one of the key challenges facing the industry. There are a number of efforts to solve this, including new protocols like Zigbee, but the most promising of these are the efforts to create highly efficient variants of existing protocols like 802.11 with 802.11ah or Bluetooth with Bluetooth Low Energy (now branded Bluetooth Smart). These technologies hold the promise to overcome rapid power consumption in these devices.
In many ways, Bluetooth Smart is already here. As part of the Bluetooth 4.0 spec, it has piggybacked its way into many of the latest Bluetooth chipsets and from a software platform perspective (Windows 8, iOS, and Android platforms all include support for it). Given this, it is starting to become prevalent with the latest wave of devices. It also promises multi-year battery life levels of efficiency and provides an abstraction mechanism for exposing data and control through its characteristics and services. I wouldn't be surprised to see Bluetooth Smart move front and center in 2014 as it gains critical mass as a key way of bridging to these real-world things.
The simplicity of these devices implies that what it means to be an application will also change. In this world, applications shift from being something with a user interface that runs on our devices and backed by the cloud to a model where an application analyzes the context provided by potentially a large number of these devices. The application will begin to present itself less on a screen and more in the state changes in the real world. These applications will not run on any one of these devices but between them.
Message Based
One potential model for this that we are experimenting with at Microsoft is a messaging-based approach. You can conceptually think about this as "Twitter for devices" where devices and applications communicate using messages through a message broker. The schema for these messages is well known among the principals in the system, enabling applications and devices to communicate that otherwise have no knowledge of each other.
This is a key advantage because devices in this new world are shifting from being consumption and creation devices to devices that provide context and control. A messaging-based approach allows you to leverage the message stream from one of these devices for multiple applications without correspondingly taxing this device with multiple requests for state. For example, a proximity sensor in your office hallway provides very interesting context for a security application for the building but is equally interesting to an application that uses them to make dynamic climate control decisions. A messaging model enables this with one set of state. It also provides a clean archiving and auditing model, enabling you to look back over this data two years later, for instance, when you want to build an occupancy model for your building across all of its proximity sensors.
The quantity and sensitivity of these devices will also mean that we need to rethink how we manage them and their data streams.
We currently manage an increasingly large number of computing devices in our lives, and while application stores have made it easier for us to install and upgrade applications and operating systems, we still spend a significant amount of time managing our devices.
As we increase the number of devices by an order of magnitude, we won't be able to provide this same level of love and care for every device in our lives. These devices are going to need to be largely autonomous. One of the core challenges of Internet of Things will be building the infrastructure to enable this level of autonomy.
Highly Distributed
Our current conception of devices working with services is largely a two-tier model. For many applications that require precise control, the 200ms latency involved in doing a round-trip from a home in Oklahoma to a data center in Virginia where multiple devices' message streams are combined may be too much. This means that applications that require this level of low latency will need to execute much closer to the edge. That said, there are many applications that will require the computational capacity and flexibility that only a larger public or private cloud data center can provide. One of the key challenges we face is providing a single abstraction for developers such that both these classes of application use the same interfaces and the infrastructure is smart enough to satisfy them transparently.
The data streams involved in the Internet of Things are also typically highly sensitive, either in the context that they provide on us or the sensitivity of the equipment that they control. One of the things we must demand as individuals and enterprises is control on what set of data we send to a centralized public cloud versus retain within systems under our control.
I believe these factors will drive a distributed approach to the Internet of Things, where applications move to the data instead the current direction of all of our data moving to the applications in the public cloud. At Microsoft we are currently experimenting with this hybrid approach, where there are several hierarchical tiers of increasing computation and storage as you go toward the cloud. Applications and data in this model flow between these tiers to the appropriate level that balances computational, latency, and privacy concerns. This distributed approach is also another key reason that an immutable messaging-based approach makes sense - it enables you to replicate these message streams between these tiers in the system while applying permission-based controls to filter them down to the messages you are comfortable sharing with another application or computational tier.
Big Data
One thing that is clear is that the volume of data that is generated from these much more numerous devices will be staggering. For example, capturing all of the data from a single car's lifetime in an enterprise fleet requires upwards of 100GB on a relatively spacious once-a-second resolution. For an enterprise like Avis, which has on the order of 150,000 cars, this means managing nearly 15PB of information over the lifetime of one generation of cars.
As an industry we have established batch algorithms and platforms like map/reduce and Hadoop and newer near real-time platforms like Storm to process these large streams of information - but these still require substantial data science and DevOps investments to operate, which put them out of the reach of smaller organizations. A key challenge is making it easier to run data pipelines that operate on the context these devices generate and building abstractions that make them easier to develop for and to use with existing information worker tools.
First Steps
We are at the very beginning of this transformation and are all still trying to get our heads around the right model that solves the problems in this space. Although I've posed a number of potential solutions in this post, you should take these more as strawmen to start a discussion than any concrete recommendation. I'd love to talk with you if working on any problems in this space - feel free to reach out to me at [email protected] or @timpark on Twitter.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Latest on the 2016 presidential campaign (all times EDT):
1:45 p.m.
Tim Kaine is using his debut campaign appearance as Hillary Clinton's running mate to introduce himself to voters.
He's joining Clinton at a rally in Miami, and here's what he's telling the crowd: "For many of you, this is the first time you've heard my name. I'm excited for us to get to know one another."
Kaine has opened his remarks in fluent Spanish, and he's detailing his biography to supporters.
There was his childhood as the son of a Kansas ironworker and hi education at a Jesuit boys schools. He's describing his early work as a missionary in Honduras and a civil rights lawyer in Richmond, Virginbia.
In Kaine's words, "I like to fight for right."
1:30 p.m.
Hillary Clinton says she has "no doubt" that running mate Tim Kaine is qualified to be her vice president.
She says the most important factor in her decision was whether her running mate could "step in and be president."
Clinton tells a campaign crowd in Miami that behind Kaine's smile is a "backbone of steel."
Clinton says the Virginia senator has fought for what she calls the most important issues facing the country, including voting rights, criminal justice reform, gun control, immigration legislation and LGBT equality.
Clinton and Kaine are making their debut appearance as running mates at the Miami event. It comes days before the Democratic National Convention begins in Philadelphia.
1:10 p.m.
Hillary Clinton and running mate Tim Kaine are sharing a stage at their first public campaign event as the Democratic ticket.
Clinton is calling Kaine a progressive who likes to get things done and says he's "everything that Donald Trump and Mike Pence are not" - referring to the Republican nominees.
Clinton and Kaine are being greeted by cheers from a boisterous Miami crowd in the crucial battleground state of Florida. Their appearance comes just days before the Democratic National Convention begins in Philadelphia.
11:15 a.m.
More than 19,000 emails from Democratic party officials have been leaked in advance of Hillary Clinton's nomination next week at the Philadelphia convention.
The emails detail the acrimonious split between the Democratic National Committee and Clinton's former primary rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders.
Emails posted by Wikileaks on its document disclosure website show DNC officials scoffing at the Sanders campaign - and, in one instance, questioning his commitment to his Jewish religion.
Some emails show DNC and White House officials mulling whether to invite guests with controversial backgrounds to party events.
Wikileaks' posting of the emails didn't disclose the identity of who provided the private material. But those knowledgeable about the breach said last month that Russian hackers penetrated DNC computers.
DNC and Sanders campaign officials weren't immediately available for comment.
11 a.m.
National preference polls may give Hillary Clinton an edge over Donald Trump, and the electoral map may favor her. And sizable numbers of Democrats say they're behind Clinton.
But many Democrats say they're more motivated by a desire to keep Trump out of the White House than by her vision for the country's future or by her bid to become the first woman to serve as president.
Democrats and independent voters in the Philadelphia suburbs - a crucial area in a competitive state - are expressing mixed feelings about Clinton in the days leading up to next week's Democratic convention in their hometown.
10:50 a.m.
The streets are freshly swept, the hotel rooms are pristine, the party invitations have gone out and extra police patrols are assigned.
Philadelphia is ready for the Democratic National Convention.
But tougher to clean up and shine is the state's political image. It's been tarnished by recent political corruption cases that have implicated many Democrats across the state.
A Republican consultant says these cases send a message about the overwhelmingly Democratic city - and could provide grist for Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans as the general election draws near.
10:45 a.m.
Hillary Clinton and running mate Tim Kaine are closely aligned on many issues.
But Kaine's cautious, left-leaning political profile has been blurred at times by his ties to energy industry interests and his personal qualms over abortion.
Kaine has navigated the rough-and-tumble of Virginia's electoral landscape with few ethics missteps. But minor controversies have flared over his acceptance of paid travel and gifts.
He and Clinton share support for a number of issues, from a no-fly zone in the air over Syria to gun control, education, health care and a tax overhaul.
Clinton opposes offshore drilling. Kaine has sponsored legislation to open Virginia's coast to drilling.
Kaine opposes abortion, but says "the right role for government is to let women make their own decisions."
9 a.m.
Hillary Clinton has made her pick and now it's time to team up with running mate Tim Kaine for the Democratic ticket's first public event.
They'll be at Florida International University in Miami later Saturday.
Florida is a vitally important state in the 2016 race.
The bilingual Kaine may prove to be a valuable asset in Spanish-language media as the campaign appeals to Hispanic-Americans turned off by Republican Donald Trump's harsh rhetoric about immigrants.
Kaine - a Virginia senator and former governor - got the nod from Clinton in a telephone call Friday evening - days before the party convention begins in Philadelphia.
His selection completes the lineup for the general election. Clinton and Kaine will face Trump and his vice presidential choice, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence.

The Independents. Sunday, October 31. Churchill's, 5501 NE Second Ave., Miami. 305-757-1807;churchillspub.com.
