Dunns River Falls and Ocho Rios Shopping Tour
When you arrive at this popular natural attraction — known for its lush setting and for its roles in the Tom Cruise movie Cocktail and the James Bond movie Dr No — learn a bit about its characteristics, most notably how it's one of the only waterfalls on Earth that empties directly into the ocean. Then get ready to climb up to the top!
Before you begin your ascension of the 600-foot (180-meter) terraced falls, put on non-slip water shoes (available for rental if you don't bring your own) and hold hands with the people next to you. Then carefully follow your guide up the 'steps' formed by the naturally chiseled rocks. Stop along the way to swim in one of the small pools that have formed on the different levels, and when you reach the top, finally out of the trees, you'll be rewarded with a nice view.
Climbing the falls is optional; if you'd rather relax, just hang out on the deck located near the river to admire the falls, go swimming in the natural lagoon at the bottom or relax on the adjacent beach.
Shopping option (an additional three hours):
If you choose the shopping option, you'll visit the town of Ocho Rios before heading to Dunn's River Falls. Spend time at a shopping center and craft market to pick up gifts and souvenirs. There are plenty of requisite T-shirts and shot glasses to be found, as well as native wood carvings and other artwork, jewelry, and local rum and coffee. You can also enjoy lunch at one of the many restaurants located around the area (own expense).
Your day trip ends with the return drive to Montego Bay.

Had a great time, our tour guide Adrian was wonderful
Reviewed by: Terry J, February 2016
We chose the JTL Dunn's River Falls/Ocho Rios Shopping tour we reserved thru Viator. Picked up at the hotel in a nice van which held about 20. Carol was an exceptional guide. She provided local color and details regarding the agriculture and culture of the island during the 1 hour ride from Iberostar to Ocho Rios. Only about an hour stop in Ocho Rios. Do take a stroll beyond the 2 block street of stores where the van is parked. Additional shopping and touring near the cruise ships.
Dunn's river falls seemed a little over 100 yards long are not extremely challenging but it is an accomplishment and a memory. The guides are professional and extremely helpful in aiding those who need it and identifying the fun spots for pics and where to get really wet.
Can be a little busy with different groups mingling as they work at different speeds ascending the falls. We went on Monday and found we had only 1 other group mixing in our climb. They seem to stage the groups well. Other commentators discussing crowds may have been climbing during a 'cruise ship' day.

President Barack Obama is making waves in the sneaker world.
When Obama paid a visit to Nike's headquarters in Beaverton, Ore., last week, he received a pair of exclusive Jordans in a custom presidential box. And they're super fancy.
MORE: Classic photos of Jordan smoking | Game-worn Jordan shoes sell for $70,000 | What's next for the Hornets?
The sneakers are none other than the new Air Jordan 11Lab4's, retailing at a hefty price of $250 as of May 1. Because we're talking about Obama, though, the tongues of the shoes have a Presidential seal — not the usual Jumpman logo.

The thing is, a lot of people aren't so happy with Nike buttering up the President.
@matthewkish @PDXBIZJournal pic.twitter.com/G3djEzKzEI
— Shelby King (@shelby_king) May 8, 2015
The motivation behind Obama's visit was to discuss his proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership, which would likely lead to more jobs opening up overseas. For the likes of New Balance, which is based almost entirely in the States, that's a worrying deal.
"I think it's great that the President is getting out and talking about his agenda," said New Balance vice president Matt LeBretton to Politico. "(But) it would be great to have him come to a footwear company that actually still makes shoes in the United States and be talking about this agreement. We'd welcome that opportunity."
To read more about the controversy, check out Politico's story.

Famously foul "corpse flower" that smells like rotting meat is now blooming at NYBG
The New York Botanical Garden's famously stinky "corpse flower" is now in bloom! The Amorphophallus titanum's rare opening marks the first time a corpse flower has bloomed at the NYBG in 80 years. If you're keen on smelling the plant's unique stench, hurry over to the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory today as peak bloom typically only lasts 24–36 hours.
L Train alternatives commuters can turn to during planned 2019 shutdown
Pretty much everyone agrees that the complete L subway line shutdown planned for 2019 is going to blow big time, but there may be a silver lining to the train-shaped cloud. Several proposals for alternative modes of transport have already been proposed, including suggestions for new bus and ferry services, as well as running additional trains on subway tracks in the area. The 18-month shutdown will mean a drastic change in habits for tens of thousands of commuters, but many argue that the alternatives may actually be better than the crowded L Train.
"Bleeding" veggie burger to debut today at David Chang's Momofuku Nishi
There's been a ton of buzz surrounding Impossible Foods' meatless burger that tastes, smells and even "bleeds" like real beef, and now New Yorkers will be able to try out the controversial dish for themselves starting today. Celebrity chef David Chang will be debuting the Impossible Burger at his Momofuku Nishi restaurant in limited quantities beginning at noon. But will the 100-percent plant-based patty be able to satisfy the picky palates of NYC foodies?
Yesterday's storm caused NYC electricity prices to spike 1000 percent
This summer has been a mega scorcher, with high heat, intense humidity, and a flurry of thunderstorms all working together to make NYC residents pretty miserable. And there's one more thing adding insult to injury: electricity prices skyrocketed on Monday afternoon to a whopping $1,042 per megawatt hour. The 1,000-percent increase, initially reported by Bloomberg, was the spot price at 3:30 p.m. local time just after a storm warning was issued, on a day that had already surpassed 90 degrees.
W Hotel's Extreme Wow Suite lets you go glamping in a yurt in the middle of NYC
Camping is probably the last thing most people think about when it comes to the Big Apple but glamping, on the other hand, fits right in. Just when we thought the popular trend of "glamorous camping" had started to wane, Manhattan's W Hotel on Lexington Avenue reminds us why it got so big in the first place. For people who don't really like nature but want to say they've been on a camping trip (and, incidentally, have a LOT of money to spend), the hotel offers this $2,770-per-night yurt situated on a terrace right off of an equally fabulous suite.

Get your free water-saving rain barrel from the NYCDEP
The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is giving away rain barrels to reduce stormwater runoff and conserve water. The 60-gallon green containers are available at scheduled events this summer coordinated by local elected officials and partner agencies. The Rain Barrel Giveaway Program began as a pilot program in 2008 with the distribution of rain barrels to 250 homeowners in the Jamaica Bay watershed. The program has expanded over the years, and in 2015, gave away more than 5,000 rain barrels to homeowners, schools and community gardens in all five boroughs.
Brooklyn's largest public housing development to run on self-sustaining microgrid
The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) is on a mission to develop a self-sustaining microgrid system to power a proposed 28-building complex in Red Hook, Brooklyn. According to the Architects Paper, NYCHA is on the lookout for developers for the Red Hook Houses District Energy System project, which would include a campus-scale heat, hot water, and electricity generation and delivery microgrid that would serve some 6,000 residents.

NYC unveils plans for redesigned "accordion" subway cars and renovated stations
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced plans this Monday for redesigned subway cars and renovated stations as part of the $27 billion, five-year MTA Capital Program approved last May to improve the NYC transit system. The proposal calls for 1,025 new subway cars, including 750 open-end cars, and major upgrades to 31 stations across the five boroughs. High-tech features will include Wi-Fi, USB charging ports and digital displays, but perhaps more important to straphangers are the open gangways that provide a seamless connection between train cars, helping to reduce overcrowding and aid in the flow of passengers. Open-end cars (also known as "accordion" cars) are increasingly being implemented around the world, including in London, Paris and Toronto.

Posted on 07/05/2005 3:49:41 PM PDT by SJackson
MEMRI: Saudi TV: Jews concentrated in Israel to make it easier to kill them
Today's clips include a June 19, 2005 interview on Al-Majd TV with UAE professor Mustafa Muslim, in which he discusses the subject of "the war between us and the Jews is a religious war." In another clip from June 17, 2005, which also aired on Al-Majd TV, Saudi cleric Dr. Al-'Aziz Al-Fawzan suggests that there is a connection between women driving and women being raped.
*Clip #734 - UAE Professor Mustafa Muslim Claims Allah Has Gathered the Jews in Israel to Make it Easier for Muslims to Fight Them on Judgment Day
Muslim: [The Israelites] have spread all over the world. Now Allah gathers them in this land. He brings them in groups from all countries of the world, in order to fulfill Allah's universal law: Judgment Day will come when Muslims fight the Jews, and the stone and the tree say: Oh, Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there's a Jew behind me, come and kill him. If the Jews were scattered throughout the world, how could we find them in order to fight them? The war between us and the Jews is a religious war. This is not a war over a path, a land or anything like that. The part of the Koran that was given at Mecca, before the Muslim even met the Jews, each chapter reveals who the Jews really are, their perversity and the danger they present. Our war with them is a religious war, and we must arm the nation with the weapon of faith.
TO VIEW THIS CLIP: http://www.memritv.org/search.asp?ACT=S9&P1=734
*Clip #735 - Saudi Cleric Dr. Abd Al-'Aziz Al-Fawzan Explains Why Women Should Not Be Allowed to Drive
Dr. Fawzan: ...Those who call to allow women to drive - according to what has been written - can be divided into two groups. The first group includes Westernized people who want to Westernize the society, to tell the truth. They want to destroy society, corrupt it, and drag it down into the depths of decay... They think that the shortest and best way to reach this goal is to allow women to drive, because if a woman drives, she will reveal her face, drive without a male chaperone, will have an easy opportunity to meet all kinds of young men and women, and she will get all made up, will mix with men, and so on... She does not get what she wants unless she sacrifices her honor, to her bosses or co-workers... Any girl he sees who has certain features, he wants. If she consents - fine. If not - he rapes her.

A woman has legs therefore she wants babys?? Make about as much sense.
... yeah, *BANG* - *SPLAT* - ... dead (muslims.)
Lock -n- Load!
And people actually question whether western civilization is superior?
I recall that when Salman Rushdie wrote The Satanic Verses, the muzzies put out a fatwa on him. I'd like to see the Israeli Mossad announce a contract on Mustafa. And have somebody collect on it
When lunatics like this make totally ridiculous and specious statements that the jihadists just eat up, there is absolutely no reason to anticipate even the remotest possibility of peace. The fact that Pres Bush continues to push forward on this exercise in futility called the "roadmap to peace" is beyond me.
I guess we just gotta wait until we're at a complete disadvantage , SHEEssh [wringing hands] "oh-h-h we want them to LIKE us so very much!"
These lunatics work for Saudi Arabia. IMO, it's time that Saudi "allies" like the US either condemn these things, maybe even bring it up over BBQ at the ranch, or just admit that this is the price of oil.
"Those who call to allow women to drive - according to what has been written - can be divided into two groups."
The two groups being:
a. those who want to haul a$$ away from these yahoos that pass for men
b. those who want to mow them down before they head to the mall to buy, um, make up, high heels, have their uncovered hair coiffed
I do believe that there are elements within the Arab world who would prefer peace, but when push comes to shove, and it's Iran against Israel, they will always support Iran.
Any peace will be tenuous at best while terrorism in Israel will continue.
Muslims gather around the Ka'aba to make them easier to vaporize. Happy Rama-dama-ding-dong, motherf***ers!
Do those goat-humpers understand what atomic bombs can do to cities?;)
"Do those goat-humpers understand what atomic bombs can do to cities?"
More importantly, do they understand what an atomic bomb can do to that giant Rubik's Cube they have in Mecca?
Corollary: Wahabists concentrated in Saudi Arabia......
WARNING: This is a high volume ping list
Every time I think that they have said everything that could piss someone off, they prove me wrong.
....another statement of conciliation and love brought to you by The Relgion of Peace. And here Sharon is kicking Israelis out of Gaza. Has he lost hi mind completely?
Don't tell the Bush Administration. After all the work on the "Road Map".
How's that worked out so far, Mahmoud? I'm thinking '47, '67 and '73.
Want to play again? Bring more cash.
This literally makes me ill.
Good point, but vermin, especially desert rats, are so low on the food chain they might survive the blast intact.
As long as we are addicted to oil AND acknowledge the legitimacy of the crazed dictators whorule the oil lands ,we are S.O.L.
Just great. Now I'm REALLY PISSED OFF!
If it were me, I'd salt the border with hardy settlers, instead of sticking my tail between my legs and crawling off. I'm talking about US surplus 50 Caliber machine guns.
I'm Irish Catholic, and due to my paternal grandmother and father's ages, I'm second generation American. I heard the stories from the elderly women on my mom's side of the family. Over 500 years of opression can basically alter your genetic stucture for better or worse. If I were being herded off my land, I'd put up a fight.

There is an underling reason why the majority of 9-11-01 hijacking killers were Saudi Wahhabists. The reason is being indoctrinated by the Saudi régime since birth with anti-western & anti-Jewish hate.

Well said. I agree with all of you, but I really fear what will happen if Iran does not become democratic soon. If Iran becomes democratic, it might actually be the beginning of game over for the Jihadists and Wahabists.
I may be cynical, but at this point, I'm very doubtful that Iran will become democratic. Maybe its just me, but I don't see the radicals and mullahs in Iran giving up their dicatorial powers without a fight.
I didn't say they wouldn't fight. And I'm not saying it will happen. But I am saying its conceivable, and it would be a good thing. If nothing else, the Iran-Iraq war was absolutely devastating and killed SOOO many adult males. Hence why Iranian demographics are heavily skewed (even more than they should be) towards the young. Therefore, if nothing else, if we can wait them out 30 years and keep funding the young democrats and encouraging democracy and freedom, then we win when the powerful embedded religious leaders all die off.

Apple Q4: iPhone sales up 16%, iPad plateaus
Apple's fourth quarter financials show the iPhone 5 leading a resurgence of smartphone sales, while the iPad remained largely static.
For the quarter ending September 28, Apple reported revenue of $37.5 billion, up from $36 billion during the same quarter one year ago, but a quarterly net profit of $7.5 billion, down from $8.2 billion in 2012. Its gross margin feel year-on-year from 40% to 37%.
Sales of iPhones grew by 26% to 33.8 million, establishing a new September quarter records – likely thanks to new models 5s and less popular 5c.
The iPad had a less stellar quarter, selling 14.1 million – below Apple's 14.5 million forecast and only a minor improvement on the 14 million of the same quarter one year ago.

First, I manualy created two products with variations. Then I export it and when making new products in .csv I just copy variations (under wpsc-variation) to new products.
But inserted products don't have variations.
In UTF-8 value of column wpsc-variation is "velkost:Velkost,velkost~10x13:10x13,velkost~15x19:15x19"
When I export all products, including the new products with variations in imported csv, in exported csv THEY HAVE VARIATIONS.
More interesting is, when I go to web and I open this product - there ARE variations to select, but when I select one I will get "Combination of product variants is not available".
Thanks for help.

MINNEAPOLIS It's just nine games into the 2012 baseball season, but the Texas Rangers are already going about business as usual. They're traveling to the same ballparks, shoveling in the same postgame meals. They have the same pregame routines, the same celebrations, largely the same spots in their batting order. Look over those box scores a little too quickly, and it's still 2011. But the Rangers are far from complacent. They've simply found what works, the blend of personalities and talents, habits and eccentricities that makes a championship caliber team. If you ask them, it's going to take a lot more than a few high-profile signings, a couple of stars poached from the National League and one lured from among their own, to alter the terrain of the American League. This past offseason was the best free agent market in years, and the American League, with its lure of designated hitters and the cash that appeared with just a few signatures on unprecedented TV contracts, capitalized. Gone was Albert Pujols from St. Louis, enticed by 10 years and 240 million from the Angels, and a similar nine-year, 214 million contract was bait enough for the Brewers' Prince Fielder to sign in Detroit. Those two moves caused a renegotiation of the American League's power structure before the season even began. Without watching one regular season Fielder at bat in a Tigers uniform, many analysts projected Detroit, which finished with the third-best record in the American League last season, to be its best team in 2012. FOX's preseason MLB power rankings list the Tigers as the No. 1 team in the major leagues, followed by the Angels and then the 2011 league-champion Rangers, who finished with a 10-game lead in their division over the Angels. No doubt the Tigers' and Angels' big moves this offseason were at least somewhat predicated on challenging both the Rangers' dominance and their failure on the game's greatest stage. For the past two seasons, Texas has made it to the World Series and lost, first to the Giants and then to the Cardinals. Before the Rangers, no team had lost two consecutive World Series since Bobby Cox's Atlanta Braves in 1991 and 1992; no American League team had done it since the Yankees in 1963 and 1964. In fact, before the Rangers' recent foibles, the American League as a unit hadn't lost two consecutive World Series since it dropped four in a row from 1979-82. It's easy to see why other teams would tire of the Rangers' dominance, how they'd be driven to desperate (read: expensive) measures to shake up the 2012 playoff landscape. And though dropping October's most meaningful series two years in a row might be enough to derail a team, the Rangers have managed to parlay those losses into a carefully negotiated confidence. While they might not yet know how to win a World Series, at least they know how to get there -- which is more than the Angels and Tigers of recent seasons can say. "It's huge," Rangers second baseman Ian Kinsler said of his team's World Series experience. "Going into spring training, we all know what we want to accomplish and what it takes to get back to that level of play. So there's really no panic. There really aren't any question marks amongst ourselves and what we believe in this clubhouse. It makes the season, makes coming to the ballpark, easier." But the Rangers' confidence is an understated one, buried among routine and the rhythm borne of two straight American League championships. Closer Joe Nathan, who left the Twins to sign with the Rangers this offseason, said he's noticed the Rangers don't let what happened last season or even what they want to achieve this season dictate the conversation. The team knows where it's been and what it's accomplished. There's no reason to discuss it at length, and instead, Nathan said, the team has mastered focusing only on the present, on the next opponent, the next game. But 19 times this season, that next opponent will be the Angels, the team that did the most to beef up its roster over the winter. Not only did they sign Pujols, but they also lured former Ranger C.J. Wilson away from Texas, and with Kendrys Morales' return nearly 22 months after suffering a broken ankle, the Angels also improved from within. They're angling to upend the Rangers not only on a larger stage, but also within their own division, the American League West, which might be the site of baseball's most exciting showdown between experience and all that is flashy and new. Wilson, a southern California native, pointed out that the Angels have been good since he entered professional baseball, and though they've had only one losing season since Wilson's 2005 major league debut, they've also never made it past the ALCS in that time. They've been good enough, with enough of a winning history and enough cash to attempt to make the jump to great. The Rangers know the Angels will be a threat, but what they did this offseason proved nothing more than fuel for a team that's determined to make the playoffs for the third straight season under manager Ron Washington. In fact, when the Rangers look at all of the money and meetings, the flights and phone calls and hours of wooing that made up the Angels' offseason, they can't help but be a bit flattered. They're still trying to catch us, and that's the fun part about it," Kinsler said. "They need to make these huge, powerful moves to try to I guess stir up things and try to jump us. That's just basically a show of respect." And through the early games of 2012, the Rangers still seem to have the advantage. It may only be April, but after defeating the Twins 4-3 on Sunday, the 8-2 Rangers grabbed a four game lead over the division-worst Angels, who go into Sunday night's game against the Yankees with a 3-5 record. Just one of those three wins came against the Twins, the teams' only common opponent, whom the Rangers swept Sunday afternoon courtesy of Josh Hamilton's 449-foot two-run homer in the eighth inning. The Rangers outmanned the Twins, scoring 14 runs to Minnesota's six over the course of the three-game series, whereas the Angels let the Twins' offense explode on Wednesday and Thursday, when it scored six and then 10 runs, edging the Angels by a run each day. Through Sunday afternoon, the Rangers are batting a collective .267 to the Angels' .258, and their pitchers' 2.30 ERA is far better than the Rangers' collective ERA of 4.43. Even so, Twins manager Ron Gardenhire drew comparisons between the two teams after facing the Angels, observing that both have speed, power and are unafraid to play small ball. But the Rangers' reputation precedes them. "It's a very good lineup over there," Gardenhire said of Texas. "You look up and down the lineup, they have a little bit of everything... They do a lot of things, plus a dominant pitching staff with some great arms in the bullpen. This is a complete baseball team." Through these first nine or ten games, it's easy to see that statistics, both past and present, can at time have little bearing on the outcome of both a game and a season. Adding a first baseman with a career .328 batting average and a starting pitcher with a career 3.60 ERA going into 2012 should provide an instant boost, but in the Angels' case, they haven't yet. Just look at last season, for that matter. The Rangers were third in the major leagues in runs scored (807), first in team batting average (.283) and second in home runs (210), yet they lost the World Series to a Cardinals team that was fifth in runs (762), fifth in average (.273) and 13th in home runs (162). So much of statistics depends on ballparks and matchups, even on leagues, so it's hard to precisely say how they'll translate from team to team or year to year. Instead of statistics, Wilson said winning comes down to comfort and to a team's ability to handle close games. There will always be freak occurrences, balls bouncing funny and pitches coming off the fingertips just that much wrong. It's how a team deals with all those factors that determines whether it's a championship-caliber squad. "I think most teams, it's how they do in those games that are one-run games," Wilson said. "I think that's really what it comes down to. Like today, there was a couple weird plays -- ball hits a base, some other weird stuff -- and those things, some of those went against us today. Over the course of the season, we hope that evens out." Funny hops and bad bounces often seem easier to handle for a team like the Rangers, whose players have been turning double plays and fielding grounders together for seasons. Kinsler said he knows exactly what to expect from his teammates, how they're going to react to certain situations and challenges, which makes dealing with those obstacles all the more seamless. "Every team has talent," Nathan said. "You could look on every roster in the major leagues and there's talent across the board. I think it's the teams that can play together. This team has proven that they do a lot of things well together." Angels manager Mike Scioscia said that he's seen some teams like his, teams that have added key new players, hit the ground running in spring training. His doesn't seem to be one of them, though, and it's still working out the early kinks. The team needs to get over a hump, he said. Pitchers need to find their rhythm, and Pujols must find a way to shake his early season slump and improve his current .250 average and .314 on base percentage. It's not so much that the Angels need to improve. They simply have to figure out how to play together, to find a way to tip the scales ever so slightly in their favor. They've done the administrative part, assembling the best that money could buy last winter; now they need to let chemistry and acclimation play their parts. "The difference between winning and losing a game sometimes is a bad bounce," Wilson said. "Sometimes it's a bad call. Sometimes it's a bad pitch. It comes down to one play sometimes. I think that's why you just have to put the best team together that you can and know that more times than not, you're going to have a competitive day." Right now, the Angels are dealing in the currency of hope, the blind faith that what worked on other teams will somehow fuse and work for them. The Rangers, however, have hours of tape and shared experiences to affirm their belief that they can win again. They have seven pitchers who could be legitimate starters on any other team -- Scott Feldman and Alexi Ogando were banished to the bullpen in favor of Colby Lewis, Derek Holland, Yu Darvish, Matt Harrison and Neftali Feliz -- and perhaps the best lineup in the major leagues. It's a scary lineup, Nathan said ("It's nice to be on this side of it."), one whose third, fourth and fifth hitters are batting .350 through its first three series. Right now, on paper, the Rangers look good. In person, they might just look better. "I think the asset is that we've been together for a while, and we've been in the playoffs two year in a row," Washington said. "So there's the asset. They know what it takes to grind through a 162-game season, and having the same guys does make a difference." But perhaps the biggest difference between the Rangers and the Angels comes not in who and what carried over from last season, but in their approach to additions this year. The Angels added because they had to, because what they did in 2011 wasn't enough. The Rangers, through the cache that two consecutive World Series berths brings, were able to lure and gamble. It took little more than a call to get Nathan on board -- "When Texas called, it definitely made it easier knowing it was Texas, for sure," he said -- and its high-profile status did a lot in luring Japan's best pitcher, Yu Darvish, to Arlington. Darvish may just be the best example of why Texas is different. Sure, it paid big bucks, 60 million over six years, for him, no different from other teams' expenditures. But though Darvish had a .144 ERA last season in Japan, he's still a gamble. He's never played against American teams in American ballparks before, and for as much of a chance as he has to be the new face of Japanese baseball in America, there's just as much of a possibility he could be a complete bust. It was a wager the Rangers were willing to take, and really, they were one of few teams equipped to do so. So yes, these early games are just a microcosm of a season, making up less than seven percent of the contests these teams will play. Texas fared better than Los Angeles against their common opponent, Minnesota, but neither team has faced the other to see what form a true matchup will take. Early on, themes are emerging, themes of acclimation and carried-over momentum. And for as often as Angels outfielder Torii Hunter says that Pujols is going to be okay, for as many times as the Rangers say their World Series losses are really an advantage, no one really knows. The only thing that's certain right now is that while the Angels can speak in hypotheticals, the Rangers are dealing more with certainty. "I think we got better as a team also, and we were better than (the Angels) last year," Kinsler said. That's a decent argument for success, but really, no one says it better than Washington. "They can play, man." Yeah, man, they can. But soon enough, the Angels may be saying the same thing. Follow Joan Niesen on Twitter.

The academics at Cal Lutheran are phenomenal! Because Cal Lu is such a small campus, the students can easily connect with professors, resulting in better classroom performance and a better learning environment.
Our school seems to have a great deal of international students. Since I transferred over a year ago, I have had at least one international student and every class. (Being that classes are around 20 students, this is an impressive number) It is really helpful meeting these international students, because it always brings up a lively topic of debate and discussion in our classes. We learn about other cultures and their religions, political atmospheres and social views.
Drug Safety:
The drug scene at CLU is really not that noticeable or prominent, but it depends on what group you hang out with.
My campus is extremely strict, in that because we are a 100% dry campus, alcohol isn't even sold at football games. I think since these games are open to the public, alcohol should be able to be sold at the games. Response from the administration usually has to do with CLU being a religious school, but we really do not have a "Lutheran" identity. We are a school that promotes interfaith efforts, and we have recently accepted secular views. I think an interfaith identity is wonderful, but it also means that our "religious" or "Lutheran" identity should no longer be a reason to promote 100% dry campus rules.
There are many different races and religions at Cal Lu, and we celebrate our differences with socials, clubs and other events. I find that everyone is very accepting of the personal beliefs and preferences of everyone else. I've found the student body as a whole to be laid back and friendly
Local Area:
Thousand Oaks is a bedroom community of Los Angeles. There are many many attractions, activities, cultural events, shopping and sports activities to enjoy. The town is really great in regards to students, sponsoring student nights at local clubs and offering many discounts with student ID. Not a big party school, but definitely a socially active school. While sports aren't a huge priority like some of the other local colleges they are offered and they do take them seriously
All schools have serious parking issues, but this is probably the best I've seen yet. UT sold 2.6 passes per spot, and Rutgers sold 1.8 per spot. So although I still get annoyed at having to park far from night classes at CLU, I have to remember it could be worse.
Much more diverse than a typical university, and they are proud of it. Diversity is over emphasized in some of the curriculum.
Drug Safety:
Marijuana and alcohol use is apparent at the university, but it very low-key and doesn't seem to interfere with anything too much.
Campus Food:
There are three places to dine on campus. The dining hall (cafeteria), the centrum (on campus restaurant), and the Mogen Mart (a miniature grocery store). For the price of the meal plan, the cafeteria food is extremely lacking. The options are repetitive and the quality isnt the best. Also if you are hungry after 7pm you are out of luck. The Centrum is open a bit later, til 11pm, but the food is the same you will find in the cafeteria and is also closed in the weekends which is very inconvenient. The Mart is open late and on weekends but mainly just contains snack-like food.
Off-Campus Dining:
Although there isn't much in the way of entertainment in Thousand Oaks, there certainly is a multitude of dining options! Just about any type of food you are in the mood for you can find. A few downsides are that all of these places are scattered across a large area, so unless you have a car they won't be accessible to you. There are a few that offer student discounts, but not many. Many of these places are also priced to serve a much older crowd and therefore can be out of a college student's price range.
The university is a dry campus, and the RA's and campus officials are very strict in enforcing the rules. At times, their strictness and some of their rules seem a bit too excessive and often interfere when it isn't necessary.
Health & Safety:
No place is perfect when it comes to security, but the small and secluded campus of CLU is very safe. Campus Security and RA's are very adamant about keeping the school that way. I have never felt unsafe at CLU.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are mostly chain restaurants and fast food places around CLU. Thousand Oaks is mostly known for being a "retirement city" so almost everything off campus, close by, shuts down by 10 pm. You have to travel a good distance to get into the night life. I would strongly recommend having a car on campus if you don't want to be stuck with nothing to do most nights.
Guys & Girls:
There is a HUGE variety of students here from all over the world. Diversity is this campus' strong suit and you'll get some exposure to a ton of different and spectacular cultures. There are tons of social events held almost every weekend and some during the week so getting to know people isn't too difficult. There is definitely no lack in attractive people on campus either... just saying...
Varsity sports are a big deal at CLU. We recently had a new stadium and workout facilities put in so attending the games is even more enjoyable. There is a wide variety of sports offered at CLU including some pretty fun intramural sports such as inner tube water polo and sand volleyball. There is a spot for everyone to participate in sports activities here at CLU and no one is left out of this awesome experience.
The student body is comprised of students from many cultures and religions.
Most successful biology majors have internships since they've been in university. Experience is the next best thing under a high GPA. Definitely need one if the GPA isn't high. In concerning majors, we are very limited compared to big schools that offer a diversity of major opportunities. But what we lack in majors we make up in student to professor ratio in class sizes. That's the school's number 1 selling point probably the number one thing you pay so much for in their minds.
Local Area:
We're in the middle of a retirement community so that's a bummer for people trying to party. So expect for it to be boring. Beautiful natural landscape, and some of the best weather in cali
Its out there but you got to work for it. If you get some financial aid you can get a lot of help. If not, school sucks because its a very expensive tutition. One of the only ways school's get money.
Campus Quality:
No student union building, big loss to the commuter population. Library is small not a good place for people to socialize, go figure. Fitness center pretty cool. Activities are there but student pop can be pretty complacent.
Campus Quality:
We're still not at the top but we're getting there. But still a pretty place to be.
Its "strict" but hey you know how religious campuses go. We're just low key about it because we're a dry campus. But we're human so If you break the code just be sure to admit your wrong. Hey Jesus turned water into wine. Let the church say Amen. Amen!(everyone on campus)
Off-Campus Dining:
Everything closes at 9. College kids don't eat dinner until 10. Fuh.
The teachers are excellent and they want you to succeed. They are there to help you and can be very accomodating if need be. I have enjoyed every professor I have had at Cal Lutheran.

Located in the heart of the beautiful, secure town of Thousand Oaks, CLU is an ideal university for those who enjoy a tight-knit community that focuses on academics, diversity, and social connections. The small student population offers students more occasions to bond with fellow Kingsmen and Regals, and to connect with professors who actually know them as individuals, not just as numbers. The semester system enables students to delve into courses of their interest, and the time spent on academic studies helps students discover what they would like to do after their CLU years. With more than 35 majors and 35 minors, and a mix and match of doubling up on both, students are bound to find their perfect area of study. CLU's close, intimate environment provides students with what other large, public schools can't: countless opportunities to shine academically and socially, and stand out as individuals without the pressure and competition of a large student body. Clubs, organizations, academic departments, and residence halls are just some of the places in which students can become involved, contribute to their school and local communities, and bond with other students, faculty, and staff.
To briefly break away from the hectic class schedules and loads of coursework, campus events, like Club Lu, afford students with musical-, sports-, art-, and food-related events. From sports games at Dodger Stadium to catching a comedy flick in Kingsmen Park, CLU events bring students together for a night of fun. At any of these events, in class, at the caf, or just hanging out in the dorms, it's not difficult to see the diversity of students. Coming from a variety of social, economic, ethnic, and political backgrounds, CLU students bring a great understanding and appreciation for other cultures on campus.

About RickyRood
I'm a professor at U Michigan and lead a course on climate change problem solving. These articles often come from and contribute to the course.
By: Dr. Ricky Rood , 10:49 PM GMT on August 01, 2014
Tracking El Niño: Summertime Update
Back in May 2014, I wrote a couple of blogs about El Niño predictions for this year (Tracking El Niño and Underlying Models). For those who need it, there are links to basic information such as definitions of terms in those blogs. This entry is an update.
One quote I want to bring forward from the May 20, 2014 entry, "Note, none of these centers are predicting, yet, strong, super or monster. I'm not as smart as those others [predicting the super and the monster], so right now I am steering away from "monster," and looking forward to what we learn about prediction, the climate as a whole and, of course, how we communicate our science."
I had three reasons to avoid going along with the "super" and the "monster." First, reading the dispassionate words of several forecast centers, there was little suggestion of an extraordinarily strong event. Second, it's usually not wise to predict extraordinary extremes without a lot of evidence, because extremes are rare. Finally, as was the case in my cranky response to the return of the polar vortex, the increasing exaggeration and personification of weather events and their implications for climate change are distinctly negative contributions. Of course, it probably costs me readers.
I'm not very good with search engines and analytics, so forgive my shortcomings in actually providing meaningful numbers. I used the Search Tools in Google and looked at the last three months. I'm just going to take a few titles and links from the first page of the results.
May 2014:
El Niño is coming: Epic event ahead? - The Weather Network
We Are heading for the Most Powerful Super El Niño Event
Are We Heading for a Worrying Super El Niño?
Real Climate: El Niño or Bust (thank goodness)
June 2014:
Odds Against Formation of a 'Super El Niño,' Experts Say
Looks like yet another false alarm. Probably no super monster El Niño coming this year
El Niño 2014: Early strength fades
Warmist Year Of Disappointment? Likelihood Of "Super El Niño" Rapidly Fading…Arctic Set For Impressive Rebound
July 2014:
El Niño plays coy with forecasters in 2014
While a 'super' El Niño looks to be off the table, what does develop this year might not deliver what many Canadians are hoping for
The 2014 El Niño is looking more and more like a bust
What's the three month arc there? From super and monster to yet another false alarm and bust. What was the evidentiary information for super and monster as adjectives back in May? How did super and monster enter into and flash to the top of headlines? Worth studying and thinking about.
In my entry from May 29, 2014 I wrote, "even a moderate El Niño this year is likely to lead to the hottest year on record." My rationale for this statement is that we are living in the hottest decade since we have had easily defended direct temperature measurements. We have remained warm, globally, despite relatively cool temperatures in the eastern Pacific. Given the importance of the eastern Pacific to the global picture, even a small break in the cool pattern is likely to lead to globally historic highs. Though too early to declare 2014 as warmest, as summarized in Jeff Master's July 24, 2014 entry, June 2014 was the warmest June since modern temperature records began in 1880, May 2014 the warmest May, April 2014 the warmest April.
OK what's happening with El Niño? I want to trace this through the prediction centers and the last three months. Also it's an exercise in the organization and usability of web-based information.
From the Climate Prediction Center
May 8, 2014, Diagnostic Discussion (and my blog)
"Chance of El Niño increases during the remainder of the year, exceeding 65% during summer."
June 5, 2014, Diagnostic Discussion
"The chance of El Niño is 70% during the Northern Hemisphere summer and reaches 80% during the fall and winter."
July 10, 2014, Diagnostic Discussion
"The chance of El Niño is about 70% during the Northern Hemisphere summer and is close to 80% during the fall and early winter."
July 28, 2014 (Update)
"ENSO-neutral conditions continue. // Sea surface temperatures (SST) are above-average in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean. // Tropical rainfall is slightly enhanced over Indonesia and in the western equatorial Pacific. // Chance of El Niño is about 70% during the Northern Hemisphere summer and is close to 80% during the fall and winter."
From the Japanese Meteorological Agency
May, 2014, El Niño Outlook (from my blog, can't find archive on JMA page)
"It is likely that El Niño conditions will develop during the northern hemisphere summer and will continue to autumn."
July 10, 2014, El Niño Outlook
"El Niño conditions did not form in June, though the NINO.3 SST deviation from normal increased from May to June. // The possibility of development of El Niño conditions in this summer is lower than previous forecasts. // It is likely that El Niño conditions will develop during the northern hemisphere autumn."
From the Australian Bureau of Meteorology
May 6, 2014, ENSO Wrap-Up (and my blog)
"Climate models surveyed by the Bureau suggest El Niño development is possible as early as July. These factors indicate that while El Niño in 2014 cannot be guaranteed, the likelihood of an event developing remains at least 70% and we are at El Niño ALERT level."
June 3 2014, ENSO Wrap-Up
"The tropical Pacific Ocean remains on track for El Niño in 2014, with just over half of the climate models surveyed by the Bureau suggesting El Niño will become established by August. An El Niño ALERT remains in place, indicating at least a 70% chance of an El Niño developing in 2014."
July 1, 2014, ENSO Wrap-Up
"While the tropical Pacific Ocean surface temperature is currently at levels typically El Niño ALERT associated with a weak El Niño, waters below the surface have cooled and atmospheric patterns continue to remain neutral.
However, over the past fortnight changes have occurred in the atmosphere that may be a response to the warm surface waters–the Southern Oscillation Index has dropped by over 10 points, and weakened trade winds have re-appeared.
These changes would need to persist for several weeks in order for an El Niño to be considered established, and it remains possible they are simply related to shorter term weather variability.
Climate models surveyed by the Bureau continue to indicate that El Niño is likely to develop by spring 2014. The Bureau's ENSO Tracker remains at El Niño ALERT, indicating at least a 70% chance of El Niño developing in 2014."
July 29, 2014, ENSO Wrap-Up
"Despite the tropical Pacific Ocean being primed for an El Niño during much of the first half of 2014, the atmosphere above has largely failed to respond, and hence the ocean and atmosphere have not reinforced each other. As a result, some cooling has now taken place in the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean, with most of the key NINO regions returning to neutral values.
While the chance of an El Niño in 2014 has clearly eased, warmer-than-average waters persist in parts of the tropical Pacific, and the (slight) majority of climate models suggest El Niño remains likely for spring. Hence the establishment of El Niño before year's end cannot be ruled out. If an El Niño were to occur, it is increasingly unlikely to be a strong event."
From the International Research Institute,
2014 May Quick Look (and my blog)
"During April through mid-May the observed ENSO conditions moved from warm-neutral to the borderline of a weak El Niño condition. Most of the ENSO prediction models indicate a continued warming trend, with a transition to sustained El Niño conditions by the early northern summer."
2014 June Quick Look
"During May through mid-June the observed ENSO conditions remained near the borderline of a weak El Niño condition in the ocean, but the atmosphere so far has shown little involvement. Most of the ENSO prediction models indicate more warming coming in the months ahead, leading to sustained El Niño conditions by the middle of northern summer."
2014 July Quick Look (There are some confused links on IRI page, that I will need to fix in the future.)
"During June through early-July the observed ENSO conditions remained near the borderline of a weak El Niño condition in the ocean, but the atmosphere so far has shown little involvement. Most of the ENSO prediction models indicate more warming coming in the months ahead, leading to sustained El Niño conditions by the middle or late portion of northern summer."
Returning here to some of the details in the Climate Prediction Center's Diagnostic Discussion.
"Over the last month, no significant change was evident in the model forecasts of ENSO, with the majority of models indicating El Niño onset within June-August and continuing into early 2015. The chance of a strong El Niño is not favored in any of the ensemble averages for Niño-3.4. At this time, the forecasters anticipate El Niño will peak at weak-to-moderate strength during the late fall and early winter (3-month values of the Niño-3.4 index between 0.5oC and 1.4oC). The chance of El Niño is about 70% during the Northern Hemisphere summer and is close to 80% during the fall and early winter."
Analysis at the end of a blog
The forecast summaries from these four centers are consistent in the sense that none of them are calling for a strong El Niño, much less a super or monster El Niño. It is also true, that the forecast centers summaries NEVER called for a strong El Niño in their public releases of information.
All of the centers are maintaining that it is more likely than not that the criteria for an El Niño will be met. The onset, originally predicted for the middle of northern hemisphere summer, keeps moving into the future. The strength of predicted El Niño is projected to be from weak to moderate.
Looking at the press and blogs reports, I would be interested to see in the blog comments how people think "super" and "monster" entered into the discussion. There is a burst of the adjectives in the press and blogs in May, followed quite quickly in June by people distancing themselves from the extreme description. Accompanying this distancing is the growth of commentary in the press and blogs about exaggerated claims and failed models. I point out explicitly, there is no language of exaggeration in the summaries from the prediction centers, which should be viewed as the basic knowledge-based information. Therefore, there is no foundation to say these models have failed in any fundamental sense.
Looking more deeply at the discussions that are only summarized above, the models originally anticipated an atmospheric response to the changes in the sea surface temperature. These responses are not being realized, which is summarized a couple of places above as "atmosphere so far has shown little involvement." This does, to perhaps only me, raise the question about the state of the atmosphere going into the beginning of the El Niño event. As noted in my previous blogs, there are a couple of documented and persistent extremes, the changes in the Arctic and the very strong trade winds in the eastern Pacific. This brings me back to my conjecture "From the point of view of predicting El Niño, during this prediction cycle we have levels of sea ice that are far lower than in previous El Niño cycles. This changes the heat exchange between the atmosphere and ocean in the Arctic. This is outside of the range of previous variability, which intrinsically increases the uncertainty in the forecast." Might be a good idea for a proposal.
I close with a mention of NOAA's ENSO Blog. Michelle L'Heureux wrote an entry on July 25, 2014 entitled What's the hold up, El Niño? Michelle L'Heureux also wrote Real Climate: El Niño or Bust, where I put the "thank goodness" above. Perhaps that's the name to look for El Niño news this summer.
I like the effort from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology to summarize the criteria for El Niño and La Niña watches, alerts and existence, in addition to the neutral phase.
Figure 1: ENSO Tracker indicating an El Niño WATCH (left) and El Niño ALERT (right). Far more details from Australian Bureau of Meteorology. In the July 29, 2014 update, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology shifted from Alert to Watch

This paper presents an integrated model for optimizing lane assignment and signal timing at tandem intersection, which is introduced recently. The pre-signal is utilized in the tandem intersection to reorganize the traffic flow; hence, the vehicles, regardless of whether left-turns or through vehicles, can be discharged in all the lanes. However, the previous work does not consider the extra traffic disruption and the associated delay caused by the additional pre-signal. In the paper, the extra delay aroused by the coordination is incorporated in a lane assignment and signal timing optimization model, and the problem is converted into a mixed-integer non-linear programming. A feasible directions method is hence introduced to solve the mixed-integer non-linear programming. The result of the optimization shows that the performance of the tandem intersection is improved and the average delay is minimized. The comparison between the tandem and the conventional configuration is presented, and the results verify that the former shows better performance than the latter. In addition, the optimal sequence corresponding to the turning proportion and the optimal lane assignment at the upstream approach of the pre-signal are presented. Furthermore, if the number of lanes is equal in all arms, the paper proves that the average delay will be reduced if lane assignment is proportional to the turning proportion and the vehicles with low proportion are discharged in advance.
