Epta Piges (7 Springs)
It's supposed to be one of top Rhodes attractions but it's nothing extraordinary. This picture shows all seven springs, one right next to another.
It's just one of many same places in the hilly forests making a nice setting for the restaurants, especially with the peacocks walking around. I wouldn't bother to go there unless I had a spare day and had absolutelly nothing to do but sleeping in the hotel room.
West coast
If you happen to stay in the western part of the island you won't be too happy seeing the beach. In Rhodes Town it's still quite wide but then it gets really narrow, dirty, shringly, empty. The water colour is beautiful (thanks to the stones) but at the same time it's quite dirty.
The picture below shows the beach in the western part of Rhodes Town. As you see, it's totally empty... and it's the first week of August. Not nice for spending the time on the beach... even for the people who don't like the crowds. This is far from being a secluded cove and there is a busy road and big hotels right next to it. So, if you go to Rhodes, choose the east side!
Rhodes Town Municipal Market
What is called a municipal market in Rhodes is totally different from what I saw and adored in other Greek towns. The market of Rhodes is a real tourist trap, an ugly building close to Mandraki Harbour and bus station, full of small and expensive shops offering casual tourist stuff. You can also have a snack there in one of numerous stinky bars.
Unique Suggestions: You can drop in, have a look and... leave. It's as simple as that.
Fun Alternatives: I don't really know why people spend their time and money there. Rhodes downtown is only a few minutes away...

Rhodes To Lindos Taxi Rides
If you don't rent a car (which is, by far, the best way to see the island) and you have to get a cab to get from Rhodes or Ixia to Lindos, the driver will try to convince you that two hours is all you need in Lindos and they will offer to wait for you there so they can bring you back for the "measly" price of 80 Euro. Don't be fooled. Lindos will take more than two hours to see - and trust me, you don't want to check you watch every five minutes. A one-way drive should cost 30-35 Euros. There are also buses that run between the two towns, but I haven't been able to figure out the schedule.
Fun Alternatives: Take the bus - if you manage to find out the schedule. The ride takes just as long (approximately 80 minutes) and it only costs 7 Euros.
Also, be advised that most of the taxi drivers won't use the meter, but the fares are supposed to be fixed - for instance, a fare from Rhodes Old Town to Ixia was always 6 Euro. If you call a cab from the hotel, it costs more.

Don't bother with the "Butterfly Valley"
"Butterfly Valley", I read. Hmm, I thought to myself, imagining a vast meadow with flowers, tall blades of grass, and gorgeous butterflies of different colors.
Wow was I off! The place wasn't totally unfortunate but it just wasn't what I expected, at all. The "valley" was a forest really, a trail in the mountains where nocturnal butterflies rested between migrations. The butterflies were quite uninteresting while still, their beautiful orange color was hidden under folded wings. It is only a place you will want to see once. The tickets are 5 euro a person and it is in the middle of nowhere, you have to pay about 20-25 euro to get there by taxi. I would recommend a relaxing day on the beach instead.

Avoid organised tours!
Don't be tempted to go on any organised tour trips (especially those touted by tour organisations if you're holidaying on a package deal). Some of these are total rip-offs and for the most part they are expensive. Buy a decent guide book, hire a car and save yourself a bit of money as well as being able to see things at your own pace.
- Family Travel
Lindos Acropole
When you first get to Lindos, you will think that the Acropolis is a long, tiresome walk and you will, probably, be tempted to get a donkey ride. Much to my surprise, it wasn't such a difficult climb and it didn't take more than 15 minutes. The advantage is that you can stop at any time, to take pictures of the breathtaking views.

How much time getting to Lindos?
I wanted to go to Lindos by boat.
There are many sales man in Mandraki.
One of them told me it will take 1 hour to reach Lindos.
He sold me a ticket and told me to be in the port in the next day.
Finally in the next day it took me 3(!) hours to reach Lindos.
Fun Alternatives: Make sure about the traveling time when buying the ticket.
Also prefer to buy the ticket from a boat and not just a sales man who stands on the dock.
Embonas Village - not at all traditional
The village of Embonas was described to us by our tour rep as an authentic Greek village where the locals often wear local dress. This may be true at the height of the holiday season, or perhaps they get a few people in costumes to wander about when an organised tour passes through but we drove there in our hire car and found the place to be completely dull. No happy freshed faced villagers in traditional costumes greeting us with cheerful smiles etc. We found it to be a sleepy one street town sweltering in the sun with absolutely nothing of interest to see.

Butterfly Valley
See, no picture here. Well, I haven't actually been to Butterfly Valley and I have to blame all the strawberry margharitas and baileys drunk the night before. Anyway, I stayed in the quiet and dark hotel room while my friends went for a short trip. Apparently, there were almost no butterflies in Butterfly Valley and it wasn't worth visiting at all. I decided to believe them :-)
ferry to Symi... a long day
I am not sure if this is really a tourist trap. But... after I read rave reviews of Symi I really wanted to go there.We only had 4 days in Rhodes and we wasted one with the trip to symi and this is why. The ferry boat left Rhodes at 9 am (we had to take a bus from Mandraki harbor to get to it) .The trip took 2 hours so we arrived at Symi at 11am. We asked when the ferry returned and they said 2.30 from Symi and 4pm from Paramitis. We didnot really want to go to Paramitis as it was really hot so we stayed at Symi where there really was not much to do for only 3 hours.Then when the ferry left it stopped at Paramitis for about 30 minutes and everyone got off. We said "Isn't this ferry continuing to Rhodes?" and they said yes later. So we finally got back to Rhodes at 6pm,after 5and a half hours on the boat and only 2 and a half hours on the island. I don't think it was really worth it especially when the weather is so hot..
maybe in the spring when you can walk it is better, but think twice if you don't like the heat.
(we did not want to go and fry ourselves on the beach between 11 and 2pm)
Unique Suggestions: I would only do this trip when the summer heat is not so strong (unless frying yourself is your thing) or if you have a longer trip stay over on the island.but skip it if you are only in Rhodes for a few days
Fun Alternatives: My alternative would definitely have been to have spent that extra day walking around the old City of Rhodes ... there is plenty to see and do there.
Ostrich Farm
After seeing the "Butterfly Valley" my mom, sis , and I decided to head out to see if the ostrich farm would be any better. Our taxi driver said that he would wait for us because it would be near impossible to find one.
No one was at the entrance so we just walked in (don't worry! we paid on our way out). In the brochure the place sounded great!
"...over 120 ostriches, foxes, a kangaroo, llama, a monkey, antelopes, dwarf goats, deer, wild boar, ponies, rabbits, ducks, parrots, partridges, ferrets, skunks, and more".
It seems that a local farmer that decided they could make some money by opening their place to the public. The animals were in poor condition, exposed to the heat and sun. Many of the smaller ones were packed in cages. = /

Trianta & Ixia
These resorts are not traditional greek villages. If you are after a Greek experience please do not even contemplate going to these places. The whole area is built up to provide classy hotels for those who get up in the morning and never leave a sunbed whether it be beach or pool side. The shops and supermarkets are expensive and false. There is also a lot of touters going around on scooters trying to coax you into the timeshare market. It was like being in Tenerife!
Unique Suggestions: If big classy hotels are your thing, then at least get off the sunbed , hire a car or take a bus and see the real Rhodes. These resorts do not do it justice.

African women in Rhodes Town
When walking along the side of the harbour where the day trip boats go from this year 3 women introduced themselves to us and asked where we were from then one started to tie a piece of coloured string with beads on around my wrist then said words in her native language and blew on it saying leave it on for 3 hours for luck and another did the same to my GF then asked for money. As I started to walk away the other woman took my hand and started to read it she said you have children I said no she said now you pay me I said what for and walked away. On a brighter note this year we only got asked where we were from once by the holiday club salesmen.
Unique Suggestions: If the African women speak to you just be polite say hello and carry on walking, don't stop and talk as they are so quick they have you before you realise. Same applies to the holiday club sales last year we were stopped several times this year I just said not interested and carried on walking.
Fun Alternatives: If you like walking round the harbour then head for the road where the windmills are or around the commercial harbour as we never got pestered there.

The hotel we stayed required a 15 Euro deposit for each beach towel. I presume if we lost a towel that is what we would be charge. That is exorbitant. There are very nice beach towel with lots of designs including Rhodes themes on sale around all the hotels for 3.5-5. Euro. We bought several. They make great souvenirs and unused ones make nice gifts.

Oh Wow! These are sooo good! I love any kind of cookies, and those with liqueur are even better! These were so full of flavor. I used dried Royal Anne Cherries (it's what I had) and they were great. I soaked the cherries for about 3 hours before making and they were nice & moist. Thanks for a wonderfully sinful treat!

The group announced yesterday it had added a ''strategic
priority'' of becoming a leading finance service company
within five years, including the acquisition of 100% of
Diners Club New Zealand for about $3 million.
Ms Kinnaird said the acquisition of Diners Club brought
additional expertise and supporting infrastructure.
''This makes more sense to us than previous strategic
decisions such as moving into Australia. If The Warehouse can
execute, we expect it to add value.''
The group's current finance book - operated by third parties
and joint ventures - was about $400 million and The Warehouse
was aiming to grow that to $600 million in five years, she
The shares were in a trading halt while an equity raising of
$115 million, made up of $100 million placement, at $3.23 a
share, and $15 million shareholders purchase plan, was
The Warehouse founder, Sir Stephen Tindall, indicated he and
his foundation would take up 50% of the placement.
Brokers expected there to be a ''solid uptake'' of the
remaining offer.
The announcement also signalled a name change, with group
executives now referring to The Warehouse Group as TW Group.
Group managing director Mark Powell said the group, through
its retail brands, offered a range of financial services
products through a joint venture and various third party
The acquisition of Noel Leeming and the reshaping of the
group changed its potential scale in financial services.
''With the current volume of receivables generated and the
opportunity for further growth, it is now the right time for
TW Group to pursue its own `captive' financial services
The Diners Club purchase would provide a team of more than 50
experienced people, core infrastructure, a premium card
product, an existing customer base and a receivables
There would be a development of a range of products including
a scheme card, a premium credit card, instalment products and
Also, there would be recruitment of leading consumer finance
executives to lead and develop the financial services
During the first half of 2015, the group would roll out a
range of new products. It was expected the financial services
division would lose up to $3 million after tax in 2014 and
2015 as the business base developed.
Mr Powell said the group had reviewed several options and
believed starting its own captive business was the best way
of realising the potential value for shareholders.
''This is a five-year journey but we are excited by the
opportunity it presents.''
Other changes being considered including the implementation
of a dividend reinvestment plan that could be in place for
the 2015 interim dividend.
The group would also modify its dividend policy and target a
payout of between 75% to 85% of adjusted reported profit.
The next two financial years were likely to be transitional
in terms of a percentage payout and to provide shareholders
with certainty, TW was targeting a minimum dividend of 19c
per share a year for both of those financial years.
Mr Powell said the minimum payout was subject to no
significant changes in trading, ensuring it was meeting its
obligations under the bank and bond covenants and being able
to provide ''appropriate levels'' of funding for strategic

- Establishment of a finance services division with the
purchase of Diners Club NZ for $3 million.$100 million

One of the greatest ironies of our time: Today's women have inherited from their mothers the freedom to claim authority in the military, corporations, churches, the professions, politics and higher education, but have been persuaded, largely by their own gender, to all but completely abdicate their authority over their children.
Students in Dr. Jana Shields' health, safety and nutrition class at Liberty County High School recently were certified in CPR and first aid.

Im having a problem with using the Shadowbox JS and SubZane youtube plugin/Norman YouTube Plugin together.
It seems to work fine however for some reason it wont work everytime. Every now and then it wont load in a shadowbox but instead it will just go straight to the youtube page. It only seems to be when you click the video and the page hasnt fully loaded. Once the dynamic content gallery has loaded it will work, however if clicked before that it will take you straight to the youtube page.
Any clues on what i should do?

You know ... this is an abusive phrase that invaded our English language. Where did it come from? How did it start? Itĺs a virus. Someone out there with high technology must be able to get rid of this. It even invaded the TV people who are beginning to use it and thatĺs a sad sign. Come on, we have to get rid of this .... you know, you know, you know. So letĺs go, no more you know.
In regards to parishioners of St. Maryĺs of the Assumption Church in Phoenixville concerning the bells not ringing, they do ring at 12, 3 and 6 p.m. They should visit the church at that time.
A LIFELONG PARISHIONER OF ST. MARYĺS
Iĺm calling to find out how many people have been stopped on Wilson Street in Pottstown by the police for speeding and going 38 mph. Seems that everyone is being told the same thing, that they were going 38. But they will not get cited for speeding, they will just give them a ticket for disobeying posted speed limit restrictions.
For people who own cats and dogs, if your animal is excessively itching and doesnĺt seem to have fleas, itĺs an allergic reaction to the flea saliva and you do need to visit the vet and get some kind of medicine to stop it otherwise theyĺll become scabby and very sick.
ITĺS COOL TO CARE RESCUE IN LIMERICK
How about every 10 years everybody has to retake a driverĺs test so you donĺt have somebody accidentally running over people. Oh what? Donĺt take their driverĺs license away, thatĺs their right. Well donĺt take my gun rights away.
Somebody called in and said we should bring our military people home. Since World War II ended in 1945 the U.S. has been in a lot of conflicts never declared a war - Vietnam, Korea and others. We have lost over a million military men and women killed in action. What did you get for this payment? Bring our military home.
A lot of people are protesting and objecting the Affordable Health Care Act, Obamacare. They state they donĺt want the government meddling in their medical affairs. But I donĺt hear anybody whoĺs 65 or older telling Medicare they donĺt want Medicare and to get out of their lives and let them worry about their health. The government runs Medicare donĺt they?
I went to the police station the other day to ask if they could talk to a business because I thought they were inappropriately using the American flag as a decoration; itĺs even draped on the floor. The dispatcher said to me, ôI donĺt think thatĺs a crime,ö but said he would ask. I donĺt know who he asked because the flag is still draped on the floor. I think he should do some research. I really think this is inappropriate so Iĺm frustrated.
Genocide or economics, it doesnĺt matter. What we did to the Native American Indians was wrong. We stole everything. We canĺt replace the buffalo; we canĺt give back to them what we took. They were here first and then we come in and destroy a nation. And now we fight to try and save nations. Somethingĺs wrong here. You make everything we did almost sound right and it wasnĺt. Iĺm glad you werenĺt my parent.
I took a walk at the Boyertown Park walking trail the other day. What a nice experience that was. Wouldnĺt it be nice if Douglass (Mont.) would do that for the residents? They certainly make enough money catching speeders on Hoffmanville Road to cover the cost of it.
For all the Republicans complaining about Obamacare, remember one thing. Mitt Romney, the Republican who ran for president against Obama, signed into law the same health care in the state of Massachusetts when he was then the governor and it has been working great for the past six years. So whatĺs your problem now?
Senior citizens and homeowners in Pottstown here we go again. The Pottstown School District according to The Mercury on Sunday will be borrowing $10 million more towards the elementary school renovations and it seems like the school district doesnĺt care how many more senior homeowners will wind up not being able to afford their homes. Should we complain to our state representatives since complaining to the school district falls on deaf ears?
Iĺd like to see Hillary Clinton run for president and, if possible, have Bill her vice president.
OK state representatives, you are there to represent us not party leaders. We the people you represent want property tax eliminated ASAP. We canĺt keep up with this unfair system so do your job and get rid of it so everybody pays their fair share.

Game On! Edmunds launches Car Stock Exchange
Automotive research site Edmunds.com has taken a cue from the popularity of fantasy sports and applied it to what the site knows best: car sales. It has created what it calls the Car Stock Exchange, or CSX – an online game where members can buy and sell stock in upcoming automobiles, which is valued based on predicting the sales of particular models in the U.S. The money used in CSX exists only in the virtual world and new members receive $1,000,000 in funny money for joining. A stock price of CSX$1 equates to 1,000 units of predicted sales. Users can buy stock in vehicles, like the 2008 Smart fortwo or 2008 BMW M3, that they believe have a price below what the actual market sales numbers will illustrate. Stock can also be sold if the price increases beyond one's expectations. Currently the range of vehicle stocks available is not very wide, but IPO release dates are scheduled for more stock choices. The market software has a plethora of complex features, but the key feature of note is the prize giveaway. Yay, prizes! Each month the member with the highest percentage gain receives a reward, and a Nintendo Wii is on the line for the month of March. Edmunds gets points for a clever and original idea, and we've signed up hoping that our lunch hour will soon be supplanted by bouts of Wii Bowling. Thanks for the tip The Terrible Pig!

The untimely death of the wonderfully gifted actor Philip Seymour Hoffman led to an outpouring of warmth for the man and affection for his work all day yesterday and today. You can find the man's "best" moments from Boogie Nights, Capote, Almost Famous, Moneyball, Twister, The Master or (insert your choice here) in numerous articles (and in the actual films, of course), but I had a quick, short memory of Philip Seymour Hoffman in the excellent HBO documentary I Knew It Was You: Rediscovering John Cazale.
The late John Cazale is noteworthy not only for his acting skill, but also for one truly excellent piece of Oscar trivia: all five of the films that John Cazale appeared in (The Godfather, The Conversation, The Godfather Part 2, Dog Day Afternoon and The Deer Hunter) were nominated for Best Picture. Despite appearing in only five movies, Mr. Cazale was a clear and obvious influence on actors like Philip Seymour Hoffman. In honor of these performers, both of whom left us way too young, we offer these two moments from I Knew It Was You.
(And a big thanks to Oscilloscope Labs for getting us these clips so quickly.)

While I am at a cemetery, I just take extra pictures. If you would like to edit or add information for someone, please email me. Also, if I added a picture, it is likely that I have a better copy. Email me if you want me to send you a better one. I really appreciate when people leave flowers for the people I have entered!!

You've gotta hand it to the Audi A8. Last year, Mercedes-Benz launched the truly stunning S-Class, putting the rest of the high-dollar luxury flagship class on notice. With the brand-new S-Class turning heads and garnering all sorts of praise from the automotive press, classmates like the BMW 7 Series, Jaguar XJ and Audi A8 started to look, well, old. But Audi didn't see fit to just let its big sedan carry on and let the Mercedes take the cake.

It's an envious position to be in, not wanting a normal Audi A8 but not wanting to make the statement that comes with a Bentley or a Rolls-Royce. What's an oligarch to do? Well, if you have the funds, consider the A8 Audi Exclusive Concept (yes, that's the actual name), a modified A8L W12 that's limited to just 50 units and features a significantly upgraded interior. Think of it as a followup to the A8 Exclusive Concept, shown at Frankfurt in 2011.

Gun on escapee concerns sheriffs
Investigators probing how inmate broke out, obtained weapon
Published: Friday, January 22, 2010 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 21, 2010 at 7:56 p.m.
Police will not say where an inmate who escaped Monday got the gun found in the stolen car he was driving when he was caught.
Dennis Paul Elliott, 52, of Spartanburg, S.C., was arrested early Tuesday morning after he escaped from the Polk County jail and led police on a chase through two states.
Polk County Sheriff Donald Hill did not return calls from the Times-News asking where the inmate got the gun, and Capt. Chadd Murray would only say it was still under investigation and would be addressed at a later date. Spartanburg authorities referred questions about the weapon to the Polk County Sheriff's Office.
Elliott had no direct ties to Polk County, Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office Public Information Officer Tony Ivey said.
"He was caught in Asheville trying to sell some items he had stolen from Spartanburg," Ivey said. "When law enforcement agencies started talking to each other, it was learned that Elliott had stolen a truck in Polk County and that is most likely how he ended up in jail there."
Elliott faces 80 charges in Polk County and Spartanburg. His Polk County charges include robbery with a dangerous weapon, escaping from a local jail, larceny of a firearm, possession of a firearm by a felon, assault by pointing a gun, assault on a female, injury to personal property and misdemeanor larceny. He faces 78 charges in Spartanburg.
Elliott is being held without bond in a Spartanburg County jail, according to Murray.
The investigation into how Elliott escaped from the jail is ongoing and is being performed by the Polk County Sheriff's Office.

Just about all that can be said about the Perianth blanket has been said. It was very slow to come together, but oh so worth it. 4 skeins of yarn were invested in the project, taking about 5 weeks of dedicated knitting time. Deciding on a border was a trial, and in the end a garter stitch border won out. It's really a shame that the photographs don't capture the true nature of this green and yellow combo, because it is fabulous. Almost everyone ooohs and aaahhs over it, and makes a compliment on the richness of the colours. The overall effect is like a blossoming field of grass on a summer day, as clouds roll by overhead. Sorry for your luck with these poor photos, and my bad skills.
Lessons learned: 1) Steam is a magical thing. Blocking evened out the surface of the knitting a lot. Not wanting to wash and block the blanket again, yet refresh the look after futzing with the ribbon trim, a liberal application of steam was applied. Oh. My. What a difference. The stitches relaxed into place and the surface is smooth, smooth, smooth. 2) For me, fair-isle knitting takes at least 4 times as long as working with a single strand of yarn.
Things to like: It was a nice change of pace to use fair-isle techniques and the whole exercise was enjoyable. Many thanks to Pinneguri (her inspiration blanket on Ravelry) for re-factoring the existing mitten design into a blanket. Taking a break towards the end to work on Maplewing was great and revitalised the finishing effort. Since the border was worked in pieces, it was worked on straight needles (my favourite).
Not so much: That's a lot of knitting on circular needles, and the border is a bit too loosely knitted.
Perianth Blanket by Barbara Gregory (and Pinneguri)
1.5 skeins Verdant Gryphon Eidos in Enlil
2.5 skeins Verdant Gryphon Eidos in Blinding Polyphemus
3 mm straights (border, couldn't find the right sized needles).
2.5 mm circs
Thanks again to my friend Jan, who made the card.
I had a few days off last week, and was fortunate enough to spend a day with my aunts. As usual, it was a laugh a minute, and Maplewing was handed over to my Aunt Marion. She has decided to give the shawl to her granddaughter as she dresses for her wedding. Very sweet. To add some more sugar to that pretty moment, my Aunt Carolyn made a gorgeous silk lingerie bag in which to store the shawl. It is so, so lovely. See…
In other news, Malpeque progresses. The back should be finished soon.

Research Institution:
AbstractMember of the Family LLC`s (MOTF) proposal is designed to study and analyze the effects of contact lens usage, eye surgery and various types of pupil dilation as they relate to the accuracy and performance of current iris recognition systems. MOTF`s study will be based on clinical data that will be gathered in both hospital and private practice settings. This will assure that we include in the study as wide a range of medical and surgical subjects as possible within the timeframe and scope of the study. We expect that this preliminary study will provide sufficient raw data for us to begin to develop approaches to detect and mitigate obstacles to iris recognition. Phase II of the project would provide the additional time and resources to expand the biometric database to more completely consider anomalies to recognition that may be discovered in Phase I. MOTF is confident that there are numerous private and government applications for this next step technology to make commercialization of the findings attractive to system manufacturers and users.

Actually, most if not all have been 'cleared' by the military. They have not had a proper trial or opportunity to defend themselves.They were the victims of the 'bounty' policy of the US Army in Afghanistan. The USA will not return a British citizen to the UK as he is not white. This is not left-wing propaganda. It is being reported in our right-wing press.
the people who were blown up noticed
You assume that these people have been determined to be criminals. They have not. They are enemy combatants. They are prisoners of war. Just like the revolutionary war, civil war, Mexican-Americn war, world war 1, Korean conflict, world war 2, Vietnamese conflict. They are not criminals.
with this logic we should let castol go sorry you are trying to compare apples and oranges.
It's just sad when these two images are juxtiposed. In one evil imprisons, and in the other it is imprisoned.
So ludicrous and not relevant. You can leave at any time. Or become super rich then you pay very little in taxes. Recommended by the faceless Plutocrats.
Because we live in the USA and our laws forbid it and yet it happens. What I your excuse?
"Catered meals" isn't what they get. Incarceration away from their families friends and wives. Not a good place to be unless you are abducted by the USA off of city streets.
So you agree with the Fascist way they are being treated? Not surprised.
First none of them are murderers. Either cleared or not even charged. But I see you like the Fascist way of conviction by illegal incarceration over our legal system.
When did any of those in Gitmo wage war on the USA? None of them.
They aren't "enemy combatants." And that is just a creation out of whole cloth by the criminal Bush Administration and carried over into the criminal Obama Administration.
Of course you would be ignorant of their being cleared. It would upset your Nazi ideals. Guilty because they were put in prison. Even the Nazi's and Bolsheviks faked some of the trials. Not necessary in our criminal system.
In response to the force-feeding, the American Medical Association sent a letter to Obama's State Department, clarifying its contention that such procedures are inhumane:
Where a prisoner refuses nourishment and is considered by the physician as capable of forming an unimpaired and rational judgment concerning the consequences of such a voluntary refusal of nourishment, he or she shall not be fed artificially.
would like to ask that the Administration review the status of the 86 detainees who were cleared for transfer in the past and let me know if there are suitable places to continue to hold or resettle these detainees either in their home countries or third countries.
"There is a group of 46 individuals who have been deemed 'too dangerous' to be released," Laura Pitter, counterterrorism advisor for Human Rights Watch tells TakePart. "The administration says they don't have enough admissible evidence to convict these individuals of a crime. They won't prosecute because they would lose the case."
So the administration continues to hold these individuals under questionable legal justifications.
Pitter says there is, of course, no guarantee against any of the 86 cleared detainees reverting to—or taking up for the first time—terrorism if they are released.
There are, however, some case studies the government can use to influence its decision. Pitter says of the 600 individuals who have been freed from Guantanamo since its inception, only 3 percent have been confirmed to have engaged in militancy after release.
"The U.S. criminal recidivism rate is 60 percent," she says. "You cannot guarantee someone is completely safe. The president himself has said it's in the U.S. national security intersest to close Guantanamo down." ^
^ So he says but his actions say otherwise. But then he is killing them now so no trial, no incarceration and no witnesses.
Many of those so called victims have been caught or killed after release.

text: Equity Residential First up is multi-family housing REIT Equity Residential ( EQR). While the S&P 500 has rallied close to 15% year-to-date, EQR hasn't. It's actually down 126 basis points on the year -- or closer to break-even when the firm's dividend payout is factored in. And the latest setup in shares points to even lower ground for EQR. >>5 Big Trades From the Financial Sector That's because shares of Equity Residential are currently forming a head and shoulders top. The head and shoulders, which indicates exhaustion among buyers, is formed by two swing highs (the shoulders) that are separated by a higher high (the head). The sell signal comes on a move through the neckline level. For EQR, that happened last month. Even though shares pulled back this week, they're showing an inability to push through the neckline, a fact that indicates that now is a better time for shorts to enter new bets than for longs to buy. The head and shoulders pattern is probably one of the most popular technical patterns out there among would-be traders, if only because of its name. But that doesn't make it any less valid; a recent academic study conducted by the Federal Reserve Board of New York found that the results of 10,000 computer-simulated head-and-shoulders trades resulted in "profits that would have been both statistically and economically significant." Don't get caught on the other side of shorts on this trade. Prev 1 of 6 Next

Did Durant win it for them or the team? Your thoughts? I think he did adding 28 points for them and went on a surg to beat the Turks. Injuried Phoenix Suns Hedo Turkglou from a little Injury. Durant I say did lead them he played his hard out to get his Gold Medal his first ever. He played with Respect,Contributed he's a team player. KD is an Elite. Congrats to him. Will he be a big part of the US and NBA in the Long Run Future.
No,he didnt win it by himself.It was a team effort.There were Andre Igoudala and Eric Gordon locking down the oppsosing team's best scorer.There was Kevin Love getting all of the rebounds.There was Lamar Odom being a perfect utility player.There were was Chauncey Billups who was the true leader of the team.I can go on and on.Everybody had a certain role.KD's role was to be the go-to guy and #1 scoring option,which he filled PERFECTLY.
Your right, Iggy is a star in the making and I see a big future for KD and Iggy
Everyone had a role. Kevin's was scoring. Great job Team USA!
Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.

Fresh off her 49th birthday fiesta, does Heather Locklear have another reason to celebrate: her engagement?
Not quite, the Melrose Place star's rep tells PEOPLE, contrary to tabloid reports: "Heather Locklear and Jack Wagner are not engaged."
A friend of the couple also said the two had no plans to tie the knot, saying that reports claiming Wagner proposed at a 49th birthday party he recently threw for Locklear were completely false.
"There was no proposal and there is no engagement," the friend tells PEOPLE. "It was a regular birthday party with good friends, candles and a cake, but that's it."
Locklear, 49, has been dating Wagner, 51, for more than three years, and a friend of Locklear's told PEOPLE in 2009 that they were "in it for the long haul."

Too Many Names[edit]
Its an independent Promotion so many many many wrestlers have come through. I am going to pare this list down even though I am one of the names on the list. Signed Just G a.k.a. NegroSuave 17:33, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- Who are you? Mr. C.C. 06:45, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
I think a logo for the promotion would be a good thing to have if there is one in my opinion. Mr. C.C. 06:45, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
THe information widely reported on the net about the Suicidal championship is very wrong. The suicidal Championship was retired after New Jersey Banned extreme wrestling. The title had been previously held by a number of hardcore wrestlers. and was retired in about 1999 but I am not 100% certain. I will contact them about it. As for the question as to who I am. My name was Just G and I was one half of the last known student tag team champions. NegroSuave 01:59, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- Well, that's what Solie.org had on there record history of JAPW titles. Also, I was reading the JAPW history on there page and they did say the state of New Jersey did ban extreme/hardcore wrestling. But again Solie.org has that 2002 date as the last champion. Mr. C.C. 21:03, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- Looking at Solie it looks like a honest mistake actually. The Team Thomas bit was tacked onto to the end as it was supposed to be about the Student Tag Team Championship which we were indeed beaten for on that date. The titles changed hands again a month later. Just looks like a clerical error. Last known champions were The Big Black Unit (Just G and Rick Silver) NegroSuave 21:06, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- I was at the very last Suicidal Championship match. It was in August 2000 at Club Bene in Sayreville, NJ between "Lowlife" Louie Ramos & Jay Lover 1. Jay Lover won the title & it was declared by "Fat" Frank that he was the final champ as NJ banned "hardcore" wrestling done by anyone except WWF, ECW & WCW, & it would take effect before their next show a month later. The strange thing is that when the hardcore ruling came down it was stated that only the Indy wrestling scene would be affected & the "Big Three" could do blood baths if they wanted to, as the NJ Athletic Commission had declared them "Sports Entertainment" (all of the big 3).--Hndsmepete 04:38, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Student Tag Team Championship[edit]
I haven't seen any title history on this title. Can some possible update the title's section with the proper information. Mr. C.C. 02:20, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Promotion history[edit]
I tried contacting Fat Frank if I could use the JAPW history that is on the site. But each I tried, the email would come back a failure delivery. So could some see if we could possibly add the JAPW history that is on the site? Mr. C.C. 02:20, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- Don't add the history if you are going to blatantly copy and paste. Please paraphrase it yourself if you want to add it otherwise don't copy and paste. I had to revert it back to the last actual registered person who made an edit. Mr. C.C. 22:42, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- I've reworked the history section because I realized it was missing an important part of JAP's rise to popularity, Hardcore wrestling. I need somehelp with dates and teh like but there was a news story about that as well as a NY Times article about Hardcore wrestling that featured JAP prominently. The law banning hardcore wrestling could have killed off the company if not for the initial change in focus. NegroSuave 16:14, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
New Jersey State Championship Re-Activation[edit]
There is conflicting information on the date of New Jersey State Championship re-activation. Solie.org says September 2006, but the article says October 26, 2006. Which is right? Mr. C.C. 08:38, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
- JAPW.net also says September, 2006. Does anyone have an exact date? Mr. C.C. 09:11, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Too long[edit]
The history section is far too long and overly detailed.. was this section lifted from somewhere else? As I've noted before, verifying the significance of the promotion should be of the highest priority right now. Deiz talk 08:22, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Cryme Tyme In JAPW?[edit]
The roster is showing Cryme Tyme as a part of JAPW, but looking at the JAPW, there is no mention of them being on their roster. Mr. C.C. (talk) 07:11, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Live from Pride
Mostly, I walked along Harvard today to avoid the gay pride crowds on Broadway. I was up on Broadway for a bit, though. Here's what I saw:
1) A sign that said "Keep Pride on Broadway." I disagree. I say march thru downtown so the 'out and proud' mantra actually means something. Staying on Capitol Hill is like staying in the closet.
2) A sign that said: "Civil Unions Aren't Enough!" Despite the potential political suicide of this sentiment, I have to agree. Civil Unions seem like a "separate but equal" kind of solution to me.
3) "Grass roots" mayoral candidate Christal Wood. I'd be stretching it if I said she had three people marching with her.
