Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Santa Lucia e le Sabbie d'Oro Cefalu
Better than expected
Just had a week at Hotel St Lucia. Nice room with balcony and sea view. The main railway line from Palermo to Messina passes by on the seaward side,about 15 metres from Hotel so quite a thunderous noise every so often but bearable. Apart from one evening when a help yourself buffet was available all other evening meals were to set menus; the menus were left on your dinner table the night before, for you to mark your choices. Each course, except for dessert, had a choice of two meals with a pasta base meal being one of the two available for every starter. All the food for starters and main courses was well presented, tasty and of ample proportions. There was, however, no choice of desserts and on two of our six nights we were given fresh oranges, with no other fruit being offered.The staff throughout the hotel, but especially the dining room waiters, were extremely courteous and helpful and willing to change your menu choice on the evening should you change your mind once your choice was served. Car hire was expensive at 225 euros for a small hatchback for 4 days, we have paid a max. of 125 euros elsewhere in Spain, Italy, Greece, Cyprus. Petrol expensive at 1.23 euros a litre.
Loved the people
My sister and I stayed at said hotel the first week in april.we found the hotel good valuefor the price we paid through newmarket holidays.we found the staff very helpful,not as some people say different in your reveiws.o.k. it was not as warm as i would have liked it to be but we had our good days.the local people,we found very patient with us due to the language barrier. may I add the curier for newmarket was more than helpful during our stay.I,ll be back.
Good Location
My young daughter (14) and I had a great time at this modest three star hotel. All the staff were ever helpful and friendly. The food was good and plentiful with excellent waiter service for the evening meal. The 'Gala' night was especially entertaining as you could choose to dress up and dine, with the waiters dressing up in their finest uniforms and parading from the kitchen to the tables in a fine military style, restaurant lights turned down low and their platters ablaze to light the way - to music.
The hotel is situated close (walking distance) to the sea side town of Cefalu and the local railway station is on route. Transport to get around the island is close at hand.
The weather for the first few days was a disappointment, cold and rainy but this was soon replaced by the sunshine which made the area all it's cracked up to be.
How to freeze at the Santa Lucia
If you would like lukewarm, indifferent food; rude and unhelpful management; 3 groups of screaming, shouting schoolchildren who didn't go to bed till after midnight; then this is the hotel for you. The heating is switched off on the 1st of April. When the temperature on the 10th April was 11 degrees C and we returned cold and wet from an excursion, we requested the use of the heater in our room. This was brusquely refused. The public rooms were cold and draughty and we spent our evenings huddled on the bed under the blankets. It is the worst hotel we have ever stayed in.
Good value for money
We stayed at this hotel in November 2004. We found the staff very helpful and friendly, and the food was good, if a bit basic. Access to the beach could be a problem if you weren't mobile - a flight of some 90 steep steps. Our room was o.k., but some guests had problems. We didn't find noise a problem, despite the proximity of the railway and the main road. It was very easy to get into Cefalu, just a pleasant walk along the sea-front. We went on a Newmarket holiday, and found the representative, and all the tour guides, extremely helpful and interesting.
Fun Hotel
We stayed here in August and I DO NOT agree with the other reviews the staff were really hard working and frendly they went out of their way to be as helpful as possible. They were fantastic with children and the entertanment team were lovely. All the Italian guests had a fantastic time and several Italians who live in London have used this hotel for the second year running. The food is average but then it normally is in hotels. Italian hotels always serve food in this way. My son is a fussy eater and all the waiters were concerned he was not eating properly and anything he wanted was organised for him, I call this good service. Yes there is a railway line next door but you dont really hear much. The air conditioning does work but you need remote control from reception. The only downside is the walk into town, either down 100 steps then short stroll along beach road into town, or down steep hill by main road. Both unlit at night, get a taxi back 7 euros.
Train spotting in Cefalu
Just returned from this hotel after a week's stay. It was allocated on arrival 3 star ( Newmarket Holidays) what a surprise we had in store !!. Rooms O.K. but had to ask for air con. control. However, it is in a very noisey location and if you have any sort of mobility problem forget it! Train line runs right behind the swimming pool and it is so close you can wave to the passengers and there is a very busy road to the front of the property. Coaches coming and going at all hours, lorries braking and horns blasting. There are approx. 104 very steep concrete steps down to the beach through a smelly, damp tunnel. We asked to be moved primarily as one of our party had a knee problem. Newmarket rep at the Hotel was sympathetic but said we would have to pay the full cost for alternative accomodation again plus transfer costs. We offered to pay any difference, but this was not acceptable - verified by a call to Newmarket Holidays in the U.K. and a terse response that we just had to stay put!! No marks for customer service. Food at the hotel was very mediocre, so my advice is to eat out a lot.
Cefalu old town is extremely interesting with some good restaurants, but select your hotel carefully!
Could do better!
I have just come back from this hotel where I stayed for a week with my Mother and Son, 13. It has a nice pool and is generally well situated, although there is a steep staircase to and from the seafront. Unfortunately, I have to agree with the previous reviewer in that the staff are generally unhelpful and downright rude in some cases. The food is dreadful and the waiting staff are surly and obviously don't want to be serving and for goodness sake don't complain! You wont get anywhere! If you can tolerate the staff and eat elsewhere (there's a nice pizzeria right next door and there are plenty of places to eat in town), it is a cheap and cheerful getaway. Cefalu is a beautiful old town and I do feel its a shame that the staff let this place down so much.
Poor service with rationed air conditioning
Stayed for a week with the air conditioner not working for 4 days....terribly inconvenient in July!!! On the plus side, its within walking distance (scenic, along the beach) to Cefalu centre.
Not a great hotel
We stayed in the Sabbie D'Oro in July 2004. The room was ok for the price we paid and it was within walking distance of the town via the beach. The staff in general though were unhelpful. We only had working airconditioning for half the time we were there. When we complained, most of the time we were fobbed off with excuses about having no remotes or that the engineer wasn't around. Generally the impression we got was that they didnt care. Also if you stay here try to book a room only as the food was awful. Most nights the meal consisted of some tough meet or fish with a choice of two overcooked vegetables, plus you had to pay for your drinks. We ended up eating out as often as we could even though we'd paid for the hotel meal.

Travel Blogs from Cefalu
A leisurely Sunday
We had a leisurely day today, just walking around stopping to eat and drink. There weren't as many cars or motorbikes today so much more pleasant to walk around. Our first stop was in the beautiful piazza del duomo. The coffee was great and very reasonably priced. The krapfen, a doughnut like thing filled with ricotta, and the apple pastry thing were delicious. ...
Footy finals
... because the terrace was totally booked out. We should have thought of booking as it was a Saturday night but inside was fine. John had seafood risotto again and said it equaled the one the other night for the best risotto he has had. I had crumbed veal and salad and we shared some caponata. My veal was cooked perfectly and the caponata the best ...
Goodbye Palermo, hello Cefalu
... pretty areas and it went mainly along the coast. We talked with a couple from England who were going to Cefalu for the day. Nice to have a conversion with someone else. We rang the agent for our apartment from the station and she came straight away and brought us here. We thought we would just be able to leave the bag as it would not be ready for us but it was so we were able to put on a load of washing before heading out for lunch. The apartment is very nice with everything ...
Sicily - Cefalu
Another beautiful morning. Breakfast was served at 8.30 with croissants, lemon cake, honey dew, fruit juice, yoghurt etc etc..a full spread! Now driving to Palermo which is the capital of Sicily. Could not find parking so drove around like a city taking in all the sights. Decided to go to the Montepellegrino Santa Rosalia Church. Went back into Palermo and found parking, less ...
Day 32 - Exploring Cefalu & Palermo
... little town - We've just loved it Palermo, the capital city of Sicily on the other hand, with a population of 656,000 is obviously quite a large place. The streets are just full of wonderful very old buildings and to be honest, we were pleasantly surprised at how nice the place was. Unfortunately we really only had a couple of hours to look around but what we did see sort of suggested that this is a city worthy of a better look than we had the time ...

Booked this hotel to try out hotspring in Wulai next to nanxi river. Location is just a few steps from the bus stop of bus from Taipei and along the street. The room we booked is facing the river so the view is pretty good. Food, snacks and drinks at the mini bar are all included in the room price so you can enjoy the snacks at night given that there is no convenient stores near the hotel. LAN and wifi are both available for free. Rooms are spacious however will get very hot very quickly if you use the in-room private bath. Comparatively, the public bath is much more spacious and there are pools of different degrees to enjoy. There is sauna and sunbeds and also drinks and magazines provided in the public bath too. It's a pity that each person staying in the hotel can only try out the public bath once since it's so enjoyable that we would want to try out the public bath the next day again.

Chris Vivlamore of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: When Jeff Teague's phone rang Saturday – while on a Harry Potter themed amusement park ride in Orlando – he answered. Hawks general manager Danny Ferry was calling with news that the team intended to match the four-year, $32 million offer sheet from the Bucks. Teague would remain in Atlanta. "He said they were going to match the offer and we're glad to have you back," Teague told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "I held on a little bit, got off the ride and we started talking a little bit more." Just three days earlier, Teague had expressed to Ferry his desire to move on. The restricted free agent was unhappy with the progress of negotiations and he was impressed by the interest the Bucks showed. He also wanted an opportunity to reunite with former Hawks coach Larry Drew. Teague said he is happy to remain a Hawk. He showed up at the team's Las Vegas Summer League game Monday night and there were hugs all around – from Ferry, teammates John Jenkins and Mike Scott, coaches and support personnel. "It's a process," Teague said. "I understood that going into it. I was a restricted free agent and I knew that all along. I was happy either way. I'm glad to be back in Atlanta. It's been home for four years. It's time to get back to work. There is no bad blood. We are all professionals." Teague said he was encouraged by the faith the Hawks showed in him by matching the offer sheet.
Doug Smith of the Toronto Star: The topic will come up over the course of a long NBA season because coaches in the final year of their contracts are constantly reminded about it. But Dwane Casey is not going to play along — no way, no how, no chance. He made that crystal clear here Monday afternoon, months before training camp even begins, the time when the questions about his future could become almost a daily occurrence. "I'm going to say this and I'm not going to talk about it again: I could care less about three years on the contract, four years on the contract, I'm going to be the same coach," he said after the Raptors played an informal scrimmage with the Washington Wizards on a Summer League off-day. "This year, I'm going to coach the way I want to coach, to coach the way that puts us in the best position to win." In case no one's been paying attention, Casey is in the third year of a three-year deal and is now working for a different general manager than the one that originally signed him.
Mark Murphy of the Boston Herald: When the C's yesterday introduced three of the four players they received in exchange for Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Jason Terry, that word was once again in circulation. And Keith Bogans wasn't too happy about that. "A negative like that — tanking to lose — if I get a vibe like that in anybody's attitude, I'm going to have an attitude," said Bogans, who sat next to MarShon Brooks and Kris Humphries during yesterday's press conference. The fourth former Net, Gerald Wallace, was not in attendance due to a commitment with his annual basketball camp in Alabama. Indeed, Bogans found it hard to believe that losing in the name of the lottery, even one as preordained for greatness as the 2014 draft, could even be connected to his new franchise. "It means a lot to come to a franchise with so much tradition. Let me put it this way. I played at Kentucky. I played at DeMatha (High School)," he said. "The main thing is to come out, play hard, win and hope I get the same thing from my teammates and the coaching staff. I'm not looking at this as something to look down on. I definitely want to win." Humphries admitted to broaching the subject yesterday with president of basketball operations Danny Ainge. "I was talking with Danny Ainge earlier and it was just, 'We're not tanking, we're playing hard. We've got to compete and make it to the playoffs,' " Humphries said.
Howard Beck of The New York Times: Ron Artest is coming home, with a more whimsical name and a more expansive biography, dotted with asterisks and footnotes and curious detours, some glorious and some less so. He returns as an N.B.A. champion and a mental-health advocate, a reformed villain-turned-Mr. Congeniality, but mostly as a proud New Yorker eager to hang a banner at Madison Square Garden. Fourteen years after bypassing him in the draft — a decision etched in franchise infamy — the Knicks finally signed Artest on Monday. He is 33 and goes by the name Metta World Peace. He is a bit slower, but no less tenacious. He is downright giddy about the possibilities. "I'm getting more excited to play with the players," World Peace said by telephone Monday night. "I'm more excited to play with the players than I am to be in New York City, you know? I'm more excited to play with the team. That's what make me excited." That was four uses of "excited" in 12 seconds, as if to erase any lingering ambiguity.
Rick Morrissey of the Chicago Sun-Times: The idea that Derrick Rose could be ready in July and not be ready in April is beyond some people's ability to comprehend. I didn't know there was a scheduled date for when he would feel ready to go. And here I see I've fallen into the trap. A story about Rose's readiness for next season has turned into a column about the stupid abuse he has taken for being methodical in his comeback. A story that stated the obvious — that Rose would be back next season — has turned into another round of haymakers between the people who think he's selfish and the people who wonder how anyone could question his heart. I can't wait for the season to begin. I fully expect the people who are furious with Rose to show up at the United Center with signs letting him know how they feel, even as he scores 30 points. I've never seen this much anger directed at someone in sports who hasn't been accused of a crime. So it's only right that his critics don't let up on him all season, if not for the rest of his career. Somehow, I don't think that's going to happen. Derrick, keep the ''breaking news'' to yourself. From now on, let your game speak for itself. It'll hush the crowd.
Mike Lupica of the New York Daily News: One year after Jason Kidd ran his Cadillac Escalade into a tree at the intersection of Cobb Road and Little Cobb Road in Water Mill, L.I., behind the wheel of a car when somebody should have been driving him home from a club they had to carry him out of, he is back in the Hamptons at 11 o'clock Tuesday morning. This time Kidd is not leaving a fancy charity event at a big East Hampton estate, or a club called SL East. He is walking into a courtroom, in the Southampton Town Courthouse in Hampton Bays, to make what is called an interim plea on his DWI arrest last July 16. … Kidd has agreed to make school appearances on Long Island in the fall, which will be taped and can be used later as public-service announcements if the DA's office chooses to use them that way. When asked on Monday what Kidd will say to students when he does appear at these schools, Burke said that the talk will be about drinking and driving with kids who either have their driver's licenses or are about to have them, about how "it doesn't matter who you are or what you've done in your life, in basketball or anything else, that alcohol impairs everybody."
Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer: Tuesday marks the 89th day since Doug Collins stepped down to take a consultant's role with the team, and it seems that no one except general manager Sam Hinkie and majority owner Josh Harris know when the coaching search will conclude. So far that's been OK for assistant coach Michael Curry, who is a candidate for the job. The 44-year-old, who was the associate head coach under Collins, is expected to interview for the job, and Curry's on-the-job training has been as good as it gets. … "I'll just continue to work every day and continue to get better as a coach," said Curry, who along with assistant coaches Aaron McKie and Jeff Capel, is under contract for another season. "I'm the senior guy on the staff, so I will continue to lead the rest of the staff and the players that we still have and the ones we have under contract. Just continue to make them get better." Curry said Hinkie informed him that the coaching search would be a long process when they first spoke. The Sixers also are expected to interview Boston Celtics assistant coach Jay Larranaga, according to multiple reports. Five other NBA assistants - Brett Brown (San Antonio Spurs), David Fizdale (Miami Heat), Melvin Hunt (Denver Nuggets), Chris Finch (Houston Rockets) and Kelvin Sampson (Houston Rockets) - have also been mentioned as candidates for the Sixers' job.
John Reid of The Times-Picayune: Appearing eager to support his teammates, New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard Eric Gordon attended the team's summer league game on Monday and sat on the bench. Traveling from nearby Los Angeles, where he's doing his ankle rehabilitation work after requiring surgery in May, Gordon said he came to support the team during their 66-62 victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers at UNLV's Cox Pavilion. Gordon said he will likely return to see more games before their summer league schedule ends. "People forget that Eric is a good guy,'' Pelicans coach Monty Williams said after Monday's game. "I actually called him out of the blue the other day and he told me he was coming out. Nobody asked him, he just said coach, `I'm coming out and I want to be around the team.' I thought that was phenomenal.'' During timeouts Monday, Gordon appeared to be engaged in the huddle, encouraging and giving pointers to some of the team's younger players. … Gordon said his rehabilitation is on schedule and he's been moving around pretty well. "It's been easy sailing so far and I when training camp begins, I want to be at 100 percent,'' Gordon said.
Eddie Sefko of The Dallas Morning News: Though it might not seem to make sense, the Mavericks' meeting with Greg Oden on Monday night in Las Vegas actually is a continuation of a dialogue that has been ongoing between the sides for nearly a year. Despite Oden's major injury problems, the Mavericks seem to think it's worthwhile to explore the option of bringing him on board to try to kick-start his career. That it should come much more cheaply than Andrew Bynum might have something to do with it. Oden, 25, spent five seasons with Portland. He played in two of them, with his serious knee problems keeping him on the shelf the other three. Last season, he was not with any NBA team. The price tag could be right for Oden. The Mavericks showed an interest in the 7-footer since he became a free agent after the 2011-12 season. He's been weighing his options to try to resuscitate his career. While Bynum could have cost as much as $24 million for two years, Oden won't command anything close to that.
J. Michael of CSN Washington: The Wizards have begun talking with John Wall's agent, Dan Fegan, regarding an extension before the regular season, CSN Washington has learned. Wall, the No. 1 overall pick in 2010, is eligible for up to a four-year, max contract with the Wizards in addition to the final year remaining on his deal that will pay him $7.45 million next season. If he's named the franchise's designated player, Wall can get five years. If the Wizards cannot reach an agreement with him by Oct. 31, talks will have to be tabled until after the 2013-14 regular season.
John Niyo of The Detroit News: He'd prefer it if you called him "Gigi." He's single, in case anybody's interested. And, yes, the newest member of the Detroit Pistons, Italian sharpshooter Luigi Datome, said Monday he plans on keeping both the full beard and the ponytail. "Yes, why not?" he laughed, shortly after signing his first NBA contract. "So people will recognize me easier." But all joking aside, the 25-year-old MVP of the Italian League wants everyone to recognize his American dream — "and for sure, this was my dream for a long time," he told me — is one that fans in Detroit should embrace, too. "I want to come here and show that I deserve to be an NBA player," he said. Clearly, the Pistons think he does, and will. And while Monday's signing won't register the same as last week's Josh Smith introduction or today's Chauncey Billups return, it's an intriguing addition, nonetheless. Not just because of the accent, either, though Datome's brief news conference at the practice facility Monday certainly had a different rhythm than the one that immediately followed for Will Bynum, who also re-upped with the Pistons for two more years.
Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News: On the cusp of his third NBA season, Cory Joseph's Summer League assignment is clear. The Spurs want him to speak up and be a leader. Spurs assistant Ime Udoka, who helms the Summer League squad, reiterated as much after an 82-76 loss to Toronto late Sunday night. Joseph's final numbers were solid — 16 points, six rebounds, six assists. But in Las Vegas, Joseph — who ended the season as Tony Parker's primary backup — is not being judged on numbers alone. "We need him to be more vocal in his role, especially when they up the pressure," Udoka said. "We need to respond better when we get in those ruts. He's a leader out there and we're looking for him to take more command. He had decent game, but he can do much better." A bit introverted by nature, the 21-year-old Joseph says he is up to the challenge. "I'm the point guard," Joseph said. "I've been leading teams all my life."
Berry Tramel of The Oklahoman: Daniel Orton likely is the odd man out. He's due to be paid just $916,099 in 2013-14, and Orton's Summer League performance last week was impressive. But Orton is one of four centers on the Thunder roster. In the modern NBA, you don't need four centers. Heck, in the old NBA, you didn't need four centers, not when you've got Serge Ibaka and Nick Collison, too. So look for the Thunder to try to trade Orton. Probably a second-round draft pick is all OKC could get for him, but that's better than nothing, which is what the Thunder will get if it has to waive him. It's possible the Thunder could trade or cut Orton and sign two players in his stead – both at minimum salaries. That would drop the Thunder just below the luxury tax threshold
Paul Coro of The Arizona Republic: Did the Suns draft damaged goods at No. 5 last month by choosing Alex Len? Is this another big man with chronic health issues barely above the hardwood? Visions of Robin Lopez and Kurt Thomas feet issues come racing back. There certainly is reason for concern, because Len is a critical element to the Suns' turnaround. But the ankle issues do not alarm the Suns. They checked out the left ankle before drafting him and were confident that the partial stress fracture would not be a future issue. After drafting him, it made sense to have the other ankle checked out because of how the body often compensates for injury. Sure enough, there were miniscule signs of the beginning of a stress fracture. The surgery that Len underwent Friday, by Dr. Gustavo Armendariz in Phoenix, was a similar procedure to what he had in early May, but this was only preventative. It does not add any rehabilitation time to what he was already undergoing, meaning Len should be able to resume some activity during September voluntary workouts and be ready for October training camp. "Do you let it heal or do you do something proactively?" Suns President of Basketball Operations Lon Babby said. "They found something at the earliest possible stages. It didn't require surgery, but that was the safest course of action."
Jody Genessy of the Deseret News: If heads continue to be scratched about why the Utah Jazz traded for Andris Biedrins, Richard Jefferson and Brandon Rush, fans should remove all fingers from their scalps. We don't want any hair to be pulled out by accident — or because the Jazz's intentions aren't understood. Yes, those three Warriors will become California transplants in Utah this fall. No, the Jazz didn't make the trade just to acquire them. You've heard that phrase players occasionally spout about how the "NBA is a business," right? … Because the organization decided not to bring Jefferson, Millsap, Mo Williams or any other veteran free agents back from last year's team, it required multiple big salaries from elsewhere to get to the NBA's minimum payroll level of $52 million. There weren't a whole lot of prized free agents within Utah's reach this offseason, so general manager Dennis Lindsey & Co. went wheeling and dealing for a solution. A quick fix presented itself via Oakland. Biedrins and Jefferson make a combined $20 million next season, and Rush is due $4 million. Eh, voila.

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. -- Brett Favre has never worried about getting injured, and he's not about to start.
The veteran quarterback wants to play in the New York Jets' preseason finale Thursday at Philadelphia, and will speak to coach Eric Mangini about getting in for a series or two. But if he's relegated to clipboard duty, Favre promises he won't be too disappointed.
"I haven't talked with him about it," Favre said Monday. "I don't know what's going to happen. I would assume that he'll probably say no, and if that's the case, so be it. I'll get some practice today and tomorrow. We'll be OK.
"I don't know if three or six plays, although I would like to do that, I don't know what you get out of that, really."
The potential for injuries is a concern for teams in the preseason, but Favre always asked to play in the finale when he was in Green Bay. The Giants' Osi Umenyiora tore the lateral meniscus in his left knee against the Jets and will have season-ending surgery, a scenario that still doesn't deter Favre.
"I've never really thought about [injuries], and I'm not saying Osi did think about it, but I saw the tape," Favre said. "That was meant to be. I mean, it's very unfortunate for him and for the Giants, but it wasn't like guys rolled up on him. That probably would've happened in practice at some point, the way it occurred. He just went down. Injuries are part of it. They come in a lot of different ways."
Favre has played in an NFL-record 253 straight regular-season games.
"I've played so many games, and not that I haven't been injured, but I've overcome injuries, been lucky in a lot of situations," he said. "This is 18 years. Whatever's going to happen is going to happen. I can't control that. I love to play, and that's really all I can think about."
Most coaches rest their starters in the fourth preseason game, using it to evaluate rookie free agents and others competing for a spot on the 53-man roster. In his previous two preseasons with the Jets, Mangini has rested his starters in the final exhibition game. Favre is a special case because he missed the preseason opener at Cleveland on Aug. 7 after coming out of retirement and being acquired from Green Bay late the previous night.
"We've got two days here," Mangini said. "I'm going to see what it looks like over the two days and then evaluate it. I can't say definitively no or definitively yes."
Added Favre: "I do understand his side of it. I really do. He has the whole team to think of."
If Favre sits against the Eagles, he'll go 13 days without playing before the regular-season opener at Miami. With Favre constantly stressing the importance of learning the system and his receivers' tendencies, would that be a big concern?
"Well, I guess no more of a concern than coming in later and having a week to prepare for my first game like I did two weeks ago," he said of his debut against Washington. "To me, that was a real game, based on the circumstances. At least in this case, I will have had some practice and have worked with these guys. Not that that makes it any better, but I feel more comfortable in that situation now than I did several weeks ago."
Favre went 9-of-12 for 96 yards in the 10-7 win over the Giants, and is 14-of-18 for 144 yards overall with a touchdown and no interceptions. He was hit a few times by the Giants, including being flung to the turf by his jersey on a sack by Justin Tuck.
"After the game, I felt OK," the 38-year-old Favre said. "Yesterday morning, I woke up, and I said, 'OK, not too bad.' By yesterday afternoon, I was like, 'Ohh.' Usually two days after is when I feel the worst. I've noticed that the last few years. Today will be a little tougher when you go out to practice than maybe in previous years. It was good to, not that I like getting hit, but it was good to kind of get that over and done with."
With Umenyiora out, Favre was asked if he thought the Giants should try to persuade Michael Strahan out of retirement.
"If I was a Giant, I'd do whatever I could to get him out and have him back on my team," Favre said. "The guy still looks great, hell of a player. I would have done whatever to try to get him back initially, but now, how could you not want him back?
"Wouldn't that be something, he comes back and we start a trend?"

If there is a downturn in the Australian economy, many New
Zealanders long-term residents there will be among the worst
affected, because they are ineligible for welfare support
That is the view of Timothy Gassin, a Melbourne-based
spokesman for OzKiwi, a group lobbying for long-term New
Zealand residents in Australia to have the same rights as
Australian residents in New Zealand.
Mr Gassin, who is an Australian with a New Zealand-born wife,
said that if there was an economic downturn in Australia,
''New Zealanders are bound to be disproportionately
''Unlike all other permanent residents, they will not have
access to unemployment benefits. ''They would also not have
access to support for retraining.
''It is certainly unfair that New Zealanders are denied the
same rights as all others living permanently in Australia.
''They ... pay their taxes, contribute to the economy, and
volunteer in their communities, but are denied many of the
services for which their taxes pay and are permanently
The issue affecting and annoying the largest number of people
was ''the lack of voting rights and the inability to gain
citizenship'', he said.

We stayed one night originally but changed that to 3 when we saw the room . The front desk staff were super ! Felix told us the regular rate was $179.00 but would let us have it for $139.That was then lowered to $99.oo when we took 3 nights and also the $8.50 indoor parking fee was waived. Katrin at front desk was also most helpful and these 2 young people will one day make their mark in the accomodation industry. The room was sumptuous, 2 sinks so one could wash hands,etc while the other was using the bathroom. Water pressure was super. There was a coffee maker, hair dryer, clothesline in tub,......Everything you could ask for. The room faced the side street and was so quiet that you'd think you were the only ones there....even though the garage was very full. There was a balcony where one could see the mountains. (rm.228) I would love to stay here again. Downtown was only a minute away, so we didn't need to use the car; walking everywhere. Banff is lovely. We tried many cafes but out favorite became the Wild Flour ; which has organic treats galore .

Rite Aid Gains After Analyst Says It May Be Walgreen Target
Rite Aid Corp. climbed 7.3 percent after Susquehanna Financial Group said it may be a takeover target of Walgreen Co., the largest U.S. drugstore chain.
Acquiring Rite Aid, the third-largest U.S. drugstore chain, for $1.60 a share in stock would boost Walgreen's profit by about 5.8 percent in the first year after the transaction, Joseph Stauff, an analyst with Susquehanna in New York, wrote today in a note to clients.
Growing "hostility" over reimbursement rates between drugstore chains and companies that manage drug benefits for corporations and other employers may lead to consolidation among retailers, Stauff said. Walgreen, which controls almost 28 percent of prescription sales, would capture another 7.1 percent with Rite Aid, he estimated.
CVS Caremark Corp.'s market share is 23.5 percent, according to Susquehanna.
Rite Aid advanced to $1.18 at 4 p.m. in New York. Walgreen rose 1 percent to $32.79.
Walgreen, based in Deerfield, Illinois, doesn't comment on speculation, spokesman Jim Cohn said in an e-mail. Susan Henderson, a spokesman for Camp Hill, Pennsylvania-based Rite Aid, also declined comment.
Walgreen's contract to provide prescriptions for customers of Express Scripts Inc., a pharmacy benefit manager, expires at the end of the year. The two companies haven't resolved differences over how much Walgreen would charge for prescriptions and how much Express Scripts would reimburse the retailer, executives told analysts at Lazard Capital Markets conference Nov. 16.

This note presents selected findings based on the set of well-being indicators published in How's Life? 2016.
Sweden should address housing shortages, begin integration activities early, and improve the support for those with low skills to speed up the effective integration of refugees, according to a new OECD report.
The 2016 Sweden Review of Innovation Policy deepens the 2012 Review by focusing on six policy initiatives central to the 2008 and 2012 Swedish Research and Innovation Bills, notably: 1) the increase in funding for university research, 2) the establishment of Strategic Research Areas, 3) actions designed to enhance the role of research institutes in Sweden's innovation system, 4) the definition and funding of Strategic Innovation Areas in collaboration with industrial, academic and research institute actors, 5) the initiation of a Challenge-Driven Innovation programme addressing societal challenges, 6) improved prioritisation and support for Swedish participation in European research and innovation activities.
More equal access to employment services and better co-ordination between the government and social partners could help disadvantaged laid-off workers get back into employment, according to a new OECD report.
The 2015 edition introduces more detailed analysis of participation in early childhood and tertiary levels of education. The report also examines first generation tertiary-educated adults' educational and social mobility, labour market outcomes for recent graduates, and participation in employer-sponsored formal and/or non-formal education.
Specific country notes have been prepared using data from the database OECD Health Statistics 2015, July 2015 version. The notes are available in PDF format.
Both educational attainment and skills, as measured in the OECD Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC), are high in Sweden. They are not perfect substitutes, but both are to some degree necessary for successfully integrating in the Swedish labour market.
The Swedish economy has been among the most resilient in Europe, despite the slow global recovery and high uncertainty, but challenges remain if it is to maintain high growth and well-being and extend prosperity to all, according to the latest OECD Economic Survey of Sweden.
English, PDF, 160kb
During the crisis, Sweden's unemployment rate increased by almost 3 percentage points, but part of this increase has now been reabsorbed. By July 2014, unemployment had fallen to 7.7%, well down from a peak of 8.9% in 2010.
English, PDF, 684kb
The ability to measure innovation is essential to an improvement strategy in education. This country note analyses how the practices are changing within classrooms and educational organisations and how teachers develop and use their pedagogical resources.

The best personal loan rates - and how to find the right one for you
Personal loan rates are at record lows spelling good news for borrowers who want to access funds for a car, home improvements or to clear debts and pay the money off steadily over time.
But loans can be notoriously difficult to navigate and a bit of a minefield if you are not equipped with the right information or are not the kind of borrower who will get the best advertised rate.
We highlight five of the best personal loans around below, complete with an explanation why, and explain how to go about getting the best deal for you.
New car? Many people take out a loan to cover the initial cost
When making our pick of the loans around we don't just take the best rates from the comparison tables – we also scour the market for all-around winners.
However, you can also investigate the best loan for you personally using our deal finder, linked below. This is a highly-recommended course of action.
Powered by our partner Moneysupermarket it offers a smart loan search - helping you to compare all the top deals that match your needs.
First things first...
Are you trying to cut existing credit card debt?
If you plan to take on a loan, make sure you're up to scratch on the laws.
EU rules mean early part-repayments are allowed
Since 1 February 2011, partial overpayments are allowed on loans taken after this date.
Banks may charge you, but this is limited to a maximum of 1 per cent of the amount repaid (if the loan is for more than a year) or 0.5 per cent (if under a year).
Loan providers must allow you to pay off your loan in an early repayment. This is subject to a penalty which is usually one or two months interest.
If so, a loan probably won't be the absolute cheapest option for you - as long as you do not have a large amount of debt and can try to clear it relatively quickly.
The whole point of balance transfer deals on credit cards are to shift card debts to them at a special cheap rate.
These rates will almost certainly be cheaper than loans for less than £1,000.
For larger amounts they can still prove more cost effective.
Providing you can transfer to a credit card, and will definitely pay it off before the 0 per cent deal ends,a balance transfer can prove the cheapest option.
If you can't, you would need to make sure you transfer your balance to another 0 per cent deal, or you will face high interest charges.
If you don;t have the financial firepower or discipline to clear the debt within a 0 per cent balance transfer period then a loan may be the best move. It sets monthly payments and as long as you keep up with them over the course of the loan, you will end up with that debt cleared.
> Use our guide to find the best 0 per cent transfer credit card for you.
Best buy loan rates at different levels
Remember: Terms and conditions apply on all these loans, particularly on how long you borrow for, and rates you are offered will vary depending on your credit history
Loans up to £5,000
Lend-to-save providers Ratesetter and Zopa both charge 5.3 per cent for amounts between £3,000 and £5,000.
Hitachi Personal Finance offers the next cheapest deal at 7.4 per cent rate for someone borrowing up to £5,000
Loans for £5,000 to £7,499
M&S Bank offers a 3.5 per cent rate on amounts between £5,000 and £15,000.
Ikano charges 4.1 per cent for amounts between £5,000 and £7,500.
Hitachi Personal Finance applies a 4.2 per cent rate for someone borrowing £5,000 to £7,499.
Sainsbury's Bank has a 4.3 per cent rate for someone borrowing £5,000 to £7,499 (4.2 per cent for Nectar cardholders repaying over 36 months, see below)
Loans for £7,500 to £15,000
Sainsbury's Bank has a 3.3 per cent rate for someone borrowing £7,500 to £15,000 however there is a 0.1 per cent reduction to 3.2 per cent for Nectar card holders borrowing over one to three years).
This deal is part of a rate sale lasting until Tuesday April 19 after which the rate reverts to 3.3 for Nectar card holders and 3.4 for everyone else.
Challenger bank, Ikano, Cahoot and Tesco Bank (Clubcardholders only) all have a 3.4 per cent rate on amounts between £7,500 to £15,000.
Nationwide also has a 3.4 per cent rate for someone borrowing £7,500 to £15,000 but you must be a main current account customer. The building society also pledges to knock 0.5 per cent off the rate if you can prove you have been offered a cheaper like-for-like loan.
First Direct has a 3.4 per cent rate for someone borrowing £7,000 to £25,000 but you must be a current account customer.
M&S Bank has a 3.5 per cent rate for someone borrowing £5,000 to £15,000.
Tesco Bank has a 3.5 per cent rate for someone borrowing £7,500 to £15,000 however Clubcard holders can apply for the same loan but with a 0.1 per cent rate reduction.
Use your loyalty to get a better rate
Savvy borrowers with a Nationwide current account or those with a Sainsbury's Nectar loyalty card can take advantage of existing customer deals and price guarantees to bag themselves even lower interest.
Remember, taking advantage of either the Nationwide or Sainsbury's Bank price promise will require applying for multiple loans at the same time, which can leave a mark on your credit file and make it harder to be accepted in the future.
Do you have a Nationwide current account?
Last month, Nationwide Building Society guaranteed to its current account customers that it would undercut any personal loan offered to them by 0.5 percentage points.
The lender also already offers a low rate of 3.6 per cent for those wanting £7,500 to £14,999.
This mean borrowers who bank with Nationwide could bag themselves a rate of under 3 per cent in theory, using any of the market-leading 3.4 per cent deals.
Do you have a Sainsbury's loyalty card?
Exclusive deal: cut your interest rate by taking out a free Nectar Card
Those with a free Sainsbury's Nectar card can apply for a rate of 3.3 per cent on amounts between £7,500 and £15,000 when repaying over one to three years.
This loyalty-rate is 0.1 per cent lower than it offers to new customers.
Loans lasting over four or five years come with a higher interest rate of 3.4 per cent.
Although the process may seem a little long-winded for a reduction of 0.1 per cent, it could be worth signing up to the free loyalty scheme before you apply for a Sainsbury's loan as savings will add up over time.
Nectar card holders must simply swipe it in store or use it online within six months of applying for the loan, to qualify for the deal.
Don't forget the Price Promise
As an added bonus, Sainsbury's Bank has included a price promise which states if you can get a better deal elsewhere, it will beat it by 0.1 per cent.
To qualify, successful applicants must provide a written offer from the other lender in the same name as the loan offered by Sainsbury's within 28 days of the Sainsbury's Standard Loan being approved.
You must not have accepted the standard loan offer by signing and returning the Sainsbury's Loan agreement.
The loans must be compared on a like-for-like basis, based on features such as, but not limited to, length of loan, fixed loan amount and repayment structure (including interest and set up fees - if any).
However, bear in mind that multiple credit searches impact your credit footprint - if you do sign up to this deal you will have effective applied for two loans.
- Find out more about how to protect your credit rating
The offer may be higher depending on your personal circumstances, credit assessment procedures and other related factors.
Best for loans of more than £15,000
If you need to take out a loan for more than £15,000 there are several options.
Santander-owned, Cahoot and offers the best deal open to new and existing customers at 3.4 per cent (APR) per cent on amounts up to £20,000.
The lender offers the low rate to those borrowing between £7,500 and £20,000, repaying over one to five years.
First Direct 1st Account customers can grab the same deal but on up to £25,000 over a repayment term of up to seven years.
Nationwide current account customers are charged 3.9 per cent on amounts between £15,000 and £25,000 repaying over one to five years.
If you don't have any personal savings, before going for commercial debt it's worth seeing if there are any loans available from the government's social fund available to you.
The first are crisis loans, which are for emergencies or disasters - basically anything that endangers your house or family.
The next type are budgeting loans, which are interest-free loans for those receiving benefits. The minimum you can borrow is £100 and it can be used to spend on things like school uniforms or furnishings.

good stuff
Reviewing 4.0.7 (Feb 17, 2014)
most excellent
Reviewing 4.0.4 (Jan 29, 2014)
cool idea but not well pulled off in my opinion.
Reviewing 2.63 (Jan 4, 2010)
Downloaded, installed took look around and one look at the useless data base that is full of stuff I will not buy/order/rip to add to my collection is unwanted visual BS.
To add to the database I might as well be using a spreadsheet for all the lack of functionality that this program has allowed the user.
Recommendation is do not bother with this program.
Reviewing 2.02 (Sep 6, 2009)
It has some nice filters, the least of which will keep track of the curent price of the desired format.

At first I thought that it must be because of some settings, but I have just checked all the settings and I am unable to find anything. What's wrong?

AES E-Library
The Countereffective Influence of the Audio Marketplace on the Musician/Consumer
The apparent lack of planning and piecemeal approach to sound-system design by working musicians suggests less-than-ideal information transfer between the manufactures of audio equipment, the retail-level audio sales people, and the consumer. Often the perception of adequate information for efficient system design on the part of the musician is based on unacceptable premises. The author will define these premises, the reason for their propagation, and some possible palliative measures.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Germs in the Bedroom
Choose area rugs over wall-to-wall carpeting.
"Children's rooms should have small area rugs that that are washed weekly -- especially during cold and flu season," Schachter says. Flu season spans from November through March, while cold season runs from about September until March or April. "Never use wall-to-wall carpet as this is hard to clean and carpets can harbor tremendous amount of germs and allergens."
Limit play dates during cold and flu season.
This may seem harsh, but during flu season an infected child can spread a cold or flu 24 hours before symptoms begin, Schachter explains. "During play dates, children have intimate contact with other children because they touch toys, they touch each other's cups, then they put their hands in mouth and touch other things and each other," he says. "There is more contact with bodily fluid between children when compared with adults and that spreads germs," he says. "I certainly would not encourage sleepover dates during flu season."
Make sure toys are clean.
"You can wash stuffed animals in the washing machine weekly during cold and flu season," Schachter says. "Plastic toys such as Legos can be washed with soap and water and board game surfaces can be wiped down with disinfecting wipes." Horowitz adds that "kids are touching everything including parts of their own body that may be contaminated and then touching toys or mouthing them and then sharing them with playmates."
Change bed sheets weekly.
"Sheets can be repositories for germs that cause colds and flus and need to be changed weekly. If your child is sick, this should be done more often as they get even more soiled," Schachter says. "If you have allergies, use dust mite covers on the bed to reduce exposure," he says. "If your children share a bedroom and one of your kids is sick, take the healthy one into your room at night on a cot to reduce the amount of germs that he or she is exposed to."
Keep Fido off the bed.
"No matter how much your children beg, don't let pets sleep in their bedroom or bed as their furry coats may be great hiding places for both germs and allergens," Schachter says.

Does it work for multisite installs?
Does it work for multisite installs?
I don't think so, sorry.
You could try it, but I guess it won't work properly. Brutal Cache was designed to improve single user blogs at free hosting services, because of the shared amount of resources on this systems wordpress might be very slow and heavy. But with Brutal Cache this blog can be hosted at an freehost like square7 or funpic with much more speed.
Sorry, I'll hope you'll find another solution.
No problem. I opted for Quickcache. Seems to work well enough. It would be nice to use your cache even on a multisite install on paid hosting though. A blog like mine which is a shopping portal could really benefit from it. http://adshopez.com/

BooksAMA is a reddit for "Ask Me Anything" threads about books. If that idea sounds weird to you, check out the submission that started it all.
Finish the book. BookAMAs are for books that you've read, not books that you're reading.
Search for the title of your book. Repeating books is allowed, but if you're repeating a book that's been done recently, join that conversation instead.
Mark books [f] for fiction, or [nf] for non-fiction.
Top-level posters are expected to check in at least several times over the first eight hours after creating an AMA, and ideally several more times over the next 24 to 48 hours. "Abandoned" AMAs (where the OP doesn't answers any questions) will be deleted. Be advised that only when a reasonable amount of time has gone by, usually a day, in which the OP doesn't answer any questions (or only one out of many) may the post be deleted. If there are special circumstances where you can't for a period of time, please message the mods and we'd be glad to not delete it.
Assume spoilers Readers should beware that the discussion will most likely deal with important plot points. If you plan on reading the book, you may want to hold off on reading the AMA.
Have the book handy. You might want to refer back to the text.
If you've also read the book, it's your AMA, too. BookAMA is ultimately just another way of managing book discussion, so the more people who've read a given book, the better. Jump in and give your opinion.

ENID, Okla. (AP) - Enid High School leaders have begun scouting out new places to hold graduation after a tornado damaged the city's expo center and rendered it unusable.
Insurance adjusters visited the Chisholm Trail Expo Center on Monday to start gathering information for an estimate, but it was too early to put a dollar figure on the amount of damage done.
No major events were planned for the expo center until the high school graduation on May 21. Spokeswoman Amber Graham Fitzgerald says a baseball and football stadium are among venues the high school is considering as its new graduation site.
Damage was also done to a shooting range and several homes in Garfield County, where Emergency Manager Mike Honigsberg thought as many as five tornadoes may have touched down late Saturday night.

'I've been shot, I've been shot': Last words of innocent woman murdered outside kebab shop as takeaway staff battled to save her
- Sabrina Moss was gunned down in Kilburn, north west London
- The 24-year-old had been out celebrating her birthday with friends
- Police believe she was in the wrong place at the wrong time
- Another 24-year-old is in hospital where she remains in a critical condition
- Two men were arrested by police but released without any further action
Victim of gunman's stray shot: Sabrina Moss died in hospital after she was shot while out celebrating her birthday
A nursery teacher gunned down on her 24th birthday in a botched gangland killing screamed 'I've been shot, I've been shot' as she cried for help, witnesses said today.
Sabrina Moss left a restaurant in Kilburn, north London, clutching a kebab, and was murdered by a gunman who was trying to kill someone else.
The mother-of-one died from a gunshot wound to the chest, a post mortem has revealed.
A 24-year-old female friend who was
standing next to her was also shot.
She remains in a critical but stable condition in hospital but Scotland Yard has confirmed her injuries are no longer life threatening.
Staff at Woody Grill, where Sabrina bought her food, rushed to stem the flow of blood with napkins but she could not be saved.
The owner of the takeaway said: 'I heard bangs but wasn't sure what they were until the girls ran into the shop. Sabrina was screaming, "I've been shot, I've been shot".'
Detectives say she was an innocent victim who was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Miss Moss, who leaves behind a four-year-old son, died in hospital from her injuries.
The two women are thought to have been gunned down by a man firing a shotgun from the other side of the road.

Cry for help: Sabrina Moss had yelled 'I've been shot, I've been shot' after a botched gangland attack where a friend was also
Yesterday forensic officers examined a car and the restaurant, which were both peppered with shot from the shotgun pellets.
Scotland Yard arrested two men, who have now been released without further action.
Last night Miss Moss's parents John and Andrea paid tribute to their daughter.
In a statement they said: 'Our family has been devastated by this horrific incident that has changed our lives for ever.
'Sabrina was a fun-loving girl who made friends wherever she went. She was a lovely daughter and a perfect mother to her young son, whom she adored.
'She cherished working as a nursery teacher and treasured working with the children, who undoubtedly will miss her dearly.'
Her mother added: 'She had nothing to do with any gangs. She was in the wrong place at the wrong time.' Susanna Flavius, Miss Moss's aunt, said the family were struggling to come to terms with their loss.

The 37-year-old care worker said: 'Her mother is still in shock, she can hardly speak.
'Her dad called me last night to tell me Sabrina had been shot.
'Sabrina was really nice and really kind. She loved children.'
Mike Hillman, owner of Hillman Butchers which is next door to Woody Grill, said he saw paramedics trying to save Miss Moss when he arrived to open his shop at 4.30am.
The 79-year-old said: 'When I turned up the road was closed off and the police were in the process of taping off other areas.
'There were around six police cars, two ambulances and an air ambulance vehicle. The barrier went around my shop and I was told to stay behind it. In a period of around five minutes I saw three girls come out of the kebab shop.
'They were banging on the shutters, they were hysterical. The girl that was murdered was then brought out on a stretcher.
'They had parked up across the other side of the road after a birthday party and came in next door to get food.'

Mike Hillman added: 'Shootings don't happen around here. There's been stabbings, but guns are never used. It's come as a shock to us all.'
As officers continued to search the area for clues, friends left an array of flowers and messages at the scene.
One tribute read: 'To my beautiful friend Sabrina. They took you away from us but we will be reunited one day. Rest in paradise my angel. Love you always, Natalie.'
Another note said: 'RIP Sabrina, good friends are hard to find. I will miss you.'
Acting Detective Superintendent John Sandlin, from Scotland Yard's homicide and major crime command, yesterday said: 'At this early stage, I believe the two women were innocent parties who were caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.'
He appealed for witnesses or anyone 'who saw anything suspicious in the Kilburn area' to call the police, adding: 'In particular, I need to hear from anyone who saw two males who came into the High Road from Messina Avenue and, after the shooting, made off on foot back along Messina Avenue.'
Anyone with information that might assist the investigation was asked to call the incident room at Hendon on 020 8358 0300. To remain anonymous, call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Girls Inc. Empowers Rae-Jean to Be Bold through Sports
From an early age, Rae-Jean took on the role of caretaker for her younger siblings. Between her responsibilities at home and her schoolwork, she felt like she was not living the life of a normal teenager. She felt under appreciated and experienced feelings of low self-esteem.
At Girls Inc., Rae-Jean was introduced to sports and found mentors, Ms. Candice and Ms. Nezi, who made her feel valued and supported. They helped Rae-Jean open up about her struggles at home and empowered her to overcome her feelings of self doubt. Sports also gave Rae-Jean a much-needed break from having to care for others and motivated her to start setting goals for herself.
"Girls Inc. helped me find my love for sports, and throughout high school, I have played softball, volleyball, and run track. I would not be the young lady that I am today, knowing that I have a true purpose in life, without the help and support of Girls Inc."
After graduation, Rae-Jean aspires to play on her college volleyball team and eventually go on to win an Olympic Gold Medal. The internship at a zoo she got through Girls Inc. has also motivated her to pursue an education in marine veterinarian medicine and she plans to eventually join the Navy Marine Mammal program.
Read more about how Girls Inc. is making a difference in the lives of girls.

Some sites have tables which appends rows when you scroll the browser so that the bottom of the table is visible.
Guess it's something like this:
- jQuery detects that the end of the table is visible in the browser
$.getJSONis used to fetch the next rows from the server
- the rows are appended.
- How do I detect that the last row is visible in the browser?
- Is there a better way than $('#tableId tbody tr').length to get the current number of rows?

June 6, 2005 by Matt Williams
The top qualifiers from the 2004 Wal-Mart Bass Fishing League Regional and Wild Card events will head to Paducah, Ky., June 8-11 to compete for $345,000 in cash and prizes in the 2005 BFL All-American.
Tournament waters will include the Ohio, Cumberland and Tennessee rivers. Translation: Expect water levels and current to play key roles in determining who takes home the top purses - $100,000 in the Boater Division, $50,000 on the co-angler side.
"This is going to be one of those wait-and-see tournaments, because the river flows are going to have a big impact on how and where the fish are grouped up, especially the smallmouths," said Britt Cone, a four-time All-American qualifier from Benton, Ky. "The smallmouths in the Cumberland and Tennessee rivers could be a big factor under the right conditions. So could the largemouths in the Smithland Pool on the Ohio River."
Cone anticipates smallies will be relating to underwater rock piles. Tubes, Carolina rigs, crankbaits and large spinnerbaits should be among the top producers.
Guys who like to flip are likely to gravitate to the Smithland Pool, where largemouths should be holding around bushes and other shoreline cover.
Cone's call: 14 to 15 pounds to make the top 10; 28 pounds to win it.

New information-technology-based capabilities make it possible to achieve systematic and dramatic gains in business performance. Re-engineering offers one method to access these gains, but a broader process of business transformation explored in this paper can give enterprises a greater range of benefits. This three-phase transformation process starts with structured automation and re-engineering efforts, builds on new infrastructure and capabilities to enhance and extend the original business, and then redefines it to create new businesses.

I got a BFP at 9DPO (after three miscarriages) and started taking Lovenox, which my doctor usually has me start with a positive test. I went in for an quant. blood test at 12DPO, which came back positive. So I've now been on Lovenox for seven days, 40iu once per day. I've used this dose before without problem. But this time I've been having nosebleeds for the past 24 hours. They aren't bad, lasting only a minute or two and I'm convinced they are, in part, caused by the fact that I've had a horrible cold and have been blowing my nose A LOT. I suspect that the nose blowing has damaged some of the blood vessels and the Lovenox is then causing the bleeding. Has anyone else had this problem. Did it result in your doctor changing your dose?
I'm out of town for the holidays and won't be able to talk to my doctor until Monday. Should I try to get in touch with him before hand? Anyway have similar experiences?
Thanks in advance for your feedback!
