Blood Oil! Professor Leif Wenar's groundbreaking new book
Natural resources empower the world's most coercive men. Authoritarians like Putin and the Saudis spend oil money on weapons and repression. ISIS and the Congo's militias spend resource money on atrocities and ammunition. For decades, resource-fueled autocrats and extremists have forced endless crises on the West—and the ultimate source of their resource money is us, paying at the gas station and the mall.
The source of the problem is an ancient legal rule that once licensed the slave trade and colonialism, apartheid and genocide: the brutal rule of "might makes right." The abolition of this rule marked some of humanity's greatest triumphs—yet the rule zombies on in today's multi-trillion dollar resource trade, enriching tyrants, warlords, and terrorists worldwide.
The West can now lead a peaceful global revolution by ending its dependence on the authoritarians who are stealing their countries' oil, and by getting out of business with the militias who are plundering their countries' minerals. Doing so will make the world more just and stable, and make other pressing problems like climate change easier to solve.
Professor Leif Wenar will be discussing his groundbreaking new book in which he identifies the causes of global theft of natural resources that underpins so much modern poverty and war. He points the finger at the West and its support for rules of global ownership of resources that cause so much harm – he also offers a clear set of proposals for what must be done to fix this global state of moral harm.
Professor Wenar will be taking take questions and comments from the audience in an interactive conversation about his book. The event will be chaired by Dr Saladin Meckled-Garcia, School of Public Policy and Director of the UCL Institute for Human Rights, with comments and reflections by Dr Amanda Greene, UCL Philosopy and Dr Jeff Howard, SPP.

Tremor Low
0 Shouts - 8,936 Scrobbles
Tremor Low is a four-piece band hailing from Oakland, California that creates insistent, brooding post-punk/new-wave music.Read More...
The group has spent the last 3 years honing their sound and begins 2012 with the release of a new 5 song EP entitled "Kingmaker" recorded with engineer/producer Jamie Hill (Jens Lekman, Nada Surf). An unsubtle recording, each song is delivered in the most urgent fashion, swooning through stories of loss and lust, vengeance and greed. "Kingmaker" is the ultimate expression of what Tremor Low is: a state of frenzy that demands to be heard.
Tremor Low brings their live experience to crowds throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, delivering a dense swell of synthesizers, iconic vocals and airtight rhythm. In 2012 the band will tour in support of "Kingmaker" hitting the road and inspiring new generations of misanthropes everywhere. Read more on Last.fm.

so I had my 4 other kids in a town about 45 minutes away from where we live. I was induced with all of them. I am switching doctors for more convenience and i won't have to take a half day off work for every appt. im a little nervous but I did met one of the doctors this last week. Had another quick ultrasound. Im 9 weeks and the heartbeat was 163. I was super excited about that especially after our loss in April and the 4 other miscarriages that I have had.
has anyone else switched doctors for this reason? Im a little nervous cause I have never gone into labor by myself but was induced. I liked it and want to be induced with this baby too. The dr said that we would talk about it at 39 weeks. Yikes! That is a ways off.
I do have my next 3 appts in the next 3 weeks so that is good. one is for history, one to have my first prenatal appt w a dr and the other one will be my 12 week ultrasound.

Eat well. Aim for a well-balanced diet with lots of fiber, and drink plenty of water. You'll lower the risk of constipation.
Let people help. It may be hard to ask for help, but you must. If friends or family members ask how they can help, offer specifics. Have them pick up groceries or take your turn in carpool.
Learn something new. Start learning a new language, take a correspondence class, watch YouTube videos on how to draw or learn how to knit.

SAO PAULO Soccer great Pele appealed to Brazil's notoriously fickle fans on Tuesday to get behind their team during the upcoming Confederations Cup.
The only player to win the World Cup three times was dismayed by recent games in which home fans barracked Brazil's players and their manager Luiz Felipe Scolari.
"This is a team that is under construction, this is a 15-day tournament, so let's not boo them," Pele said to applause at a promotional event in Sao Paulo.
"Let's support the players, even if things don't work out because this is us preparing for the World Cup."
The eight-team Confederations Cup takes place in Brazil from June 15 to June 30 and is considered a major test run for next year's World Cup, both for players and organisers.
More than 80 percent of the tickets have been sold for this month's tournament and it promises to be the most successful ever commercially.
Brazilian fans have a reputation for colour and flamboyance when overseas, but at home they are demanding and fickle. As the only team to win the World Cup five times, Brazilian supporters are unforgiving when their expectations are not met.
In last week's 2-2 draw against England it took fans just 12 minutes before they were hounding their own players. They also greeted Scolari's second-half substitutions with chants of "Donkey, Donkey".
Fans were more positive in Porto Alegre on Sunday when Brazil overcame a France 3-0 in a friendly.
But Pele warned the team were not the finished article and said they must improve if they are to win next year's World Cup on home soil.
"We are prepared for the Confederations Cup, but the World Cup is another story," agreed Carlos Alberto Torres, the captain of Brazil's 1970 World Cup-winning side. "We have another year to prepare for that."

The Civil War as a Theological Crisis
Mark A. Noll
University of North Carolina Press, $29.95, 199 pp.
"I can see no reason, but the most deceitful one, for calling the religion of this land Christianity. I look upon it as the climax of all misnomers, the boldest of all frauds, and the grossest of all libels."
Religious conservatives looking for the origins of "the war on Christianity" might do well to consult Frederick Douglass's Narrative, with its resounding volley of scorn for American claims to godliness. Disdainful of his era's Bible-toting bullies, Douglass reminded churchgoing readers that "the bitter cries of the heart-broken slave are drowned in the religious shouts of his pious master." One such master was a certain Captain Auld, who had "experienced religion" at one of those revival meetings. Dissatisfied with the service of a young slave girl, Auld whipped her with a cowskin lash, quoting Scripture as he did: "He that knoweth his master's will, and doeth it not, shall be beaten with many stripes." Like other gentleman-tyrants, Auld had ample reason to claim, as Douglass noted, "religious sanction and support for his slaveholding cruelty." St. Paul had enjoined submission to masters; and had not God himself established and regulated slavery through the Mosaic Law, thereby providing the seal of divine approval?
Though Mark Noll doesn't cite Douglass's...

BEST BETS: "Jessica Jones," "Big Trouble/Escape from New York" & More October 2016 Highlights
Comic Books
Marvel CEO Isaac Perlmutter and his wife Laura have donated $9 million to help fund cancer research at NYU Langone Medical Center and the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology.
According to an announcement made today by the institutions, $3 million will finance six cancer-focused projects conducted by teams led by investigators from NYU Langone and the Technion. The remaining $6 million be used to establish a state-of-the-art research facility on Technion's Israel campus that will support these and other projects. Its principal focus will be on the emerging field of cancer metabolomics.
The former co-owner of Toy Biz, Isaac Perlmutter and his then business partner Avi Arad took control of Marvel in 1998, led the company out of bankruptcy and, within a decade, established Marvel Studios as a major player in Hollywood. A self-made billionaire, the publicity-shy Perlmutter made $1.5 billion in cash and stock from the 2009 sale of Marvel, becoming Disney's second-largest individual shareholder and one of the wealthiest people in the United States.
Manga | The 13th volume of Hajime Isayama's hit dystopian fantasy Attack on Titan sold 1.4 million copies in Japan during its first week of release: 1.13 million copies of the regular edition, and 270,000 of a special edition that includes the original video animation. Kodansha ordered a 2.75 million-copy initial print run, a record not only for the series but for the publisher as well. The 66th volume of One Piece holds the record in Japan for highest sales in the first week with nearly 2.3 million copies. [Crunchyroll]
Publishing | Darren Davis of Bluewater Productions, talks about the evolution of his company and the origin story of its Female Force bio-comics line: "[W]e saw a comic book done of Barack Obama and John McCain during the 2008 elections, and my partner joked and said, 'Why don't we do Hillary?' And I thought, oh my God, that's a brilliant idea.So I thought, let's do this, but let's do it differently. Let's not do it like everyone else, with a boring biography. We did it with a female empowerment angle. We released Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin at the same time, and whether you like Sarah Palin or hate Hillary Clinton, you have to respect both of them for where they came from and who they are." [The Beaverton Leader]

Michael Dokes, Former Heavyweight Boxing Champion, Dies at 54
Michael Dokes, the World Boxing Association's heavyweight champion from 1982-83, has died. He was 54.
Dokes died two days ago of liver cancer after spending time at an Akron, Ohio, hospice center, the Akron Beacon Journal reported. His death was confirmed by the Rhoden Memorial Home in Akron, which is handling funeral arrangements.
Dokes, nicknamed "Dynamite," beat Mike Weaver in a technical knockout on Dec. 10, 1982 in Las Vegas to win the WBA heavyweight title, according to BoxRec.com. He defeated Weaver again in a 1983 decision before being knocked out by Gerrie Coetzee later that year. Dokes retired in 1997 with a 53-6-2 record, according to the boxing website.
Dokes was arrested in 1986 for cocaine trafficking and served two years' probation, the Beacon Journal said. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison in 2000 after pleading guilty to attempted murder, second-degree kidnapping and intent to commit sexual assault against his girlfriend, the newspaper said. Dokes was paroled in 2008.

Same thing happened in the 70s.
More than a 1 in 10 chance, and still I fall for the girl who is adamant she is straight. Or adamantly terrified of being gay, since she doesn't like guys and has been in love with me for a year...without sexual contact. Grr, I hate closet cases. I'm so off topic.
Hey, this is good news. More bi girls to play with to get over her.
Wow from 4 percent to 11.5? What percent increase is that? Like, 100 percent +, right?
Close to a 200% increase. But the cohorts are not the same. 18-44 (27 years) versus 18-59 (42 years). A hefty chunk of the "increase" could be due to that. On the other hand, the older women have had more time to get it on with each other.
You couldn't save this for us Friday Freaksers tomorrow?
"...some sexual behavior experts to light-heartedly refer to the term LUG, or lesbian until graduation, said Craig
When the diplomas hit their hands they become Hasbians.
I don't suppose this could have anything to do with the fact that most guys in that age group are mindlessly horny, obnoxious, emotionally immature premature ejaculators?
A lot of my lesbian friends complain about how their ranks tend to thin out around the age of 30. My theory is that straight guys younger than that basically aren't worth talking to, let alone fucking, and that some women just mistake understandable lack of attrraction to a pack of walking hard-ons for lesbianism.
"A lot of my lesbian friends complain about how their ranks tend to thin out around the age of 30."
Judah, it sounds like all the girls I know who tried veganism.
Once you go meat, you never go back.
Unless of course that meat is attached to an 18 year old who never showers, comes in a minute and a half and says cunnilingus is "gross".
you mean gutter punks?
I know I started having sex with women because men are so diseasedI don't know about you.
Women are just more fun. :-)
I really wish journalists would have to take a "how to compute percentages" course in order to get a journalist certificate.
The answer to why they would be "trying to avoid diseases more commonly spread through sex with men" can be satisfactorily answered by removing "diseases more commonly spread through sex with".
I always hear about this sort of thing...mostly from Dan Savage. But not all bi girls who end up with men are suddenly strait, you know...just because you choose one as a life partner doesn't mean you give up lusting after/having sex with the other.
Dianna, if you've never had experience of bi-for-attention girls, I wanna live where you are. It's ridiculously common.
I wonder what the stats are for men. I know plenty of men that are at the very least trying out the bi/gay thing.
I would attribute all of this to the fact that sex is just not a big deal anymore. Its like "whatever, sex big fucking deal" directly in opposition to what the religious right/parents preach. Kids now know the truth: get it while you are young and you want it, before you a labored down with a soul-less job and a mortgage, cause at least you can say "one time I was HELLA freaky".
ok, shit. I should not drink and comment. Whatev's.
I've known quite a few of those, but I think Dianna was just saying that the post intimated that that was the only way things happened.
My 17-year-old daughter (high school junior) says "almost every girl in school is bi now, at least for awhile". She claims that many girls who say they are bi are trying to attract guys (sort of like those Girls Gone Wild videos).
Ballard, I was going to say the exact same thing (apart from the bit about having a daughter ;-)). For girls it's "hip" to pretend to fall in love with women because that's what guys do, and it turns guys on. For men to have sex with men... oh no, that's degrading because that makes them more feminine. And that should be avoided at all cost!
I also think women are more likely to (consciously or subconsciously) repress their desires in order to fit society's standards. Which might explain why there are more gay men than gay women.
187.5% increase, though that's understating it due to the change in age ranges..
Some had to do it.
I'm lucky, I've dated a bi-for-attention girl and a genuine by-god bisexual. The latter was WAYYYYY better in bed.
I know a lot of girls who are unattractive and date women because they don't think they can attract guys.
Or could it be that women are finding that they know their own bodies best and another woman can please them in ways that a man never could? Does any man really know how a woman's sexual anatomy is supposed to work? Men and women are just not very compatible, sexually or otherwise. It makes sense to me that people of the same sex have better sex than people of opposite sexes.
Go on, girls.... more men for me! ;)
OhYesBelieveIt, women's tastes and pleasures vary greatly--different women like different things. One shouldn't assume that a lesbian knows how to please another woman any better than a man does, simply by virtue of having the same organs.
Judah, get out of my mind! ahhhhhhhhh!
@ 24: It can be argued that the ways a woman can please a woman are all within the realm of how a man can please a woman, but then a man has one more tool in the shed...
I'm a straight man who only has emotional/dating relationships with women--but I also love to suck big black cocks! No male "lovers," "companions," or partners, no soft lingering kisses, no butt-fucking--just getting on my knees and servicing another dude's tool. The sexual purists out there will attempt to define me as "bi," "gay," fetishizing, or some other narrow bullshit. But like many of the women who answer these surveys, I could give a rat's ass what you call it--I like girls...and I like to suck cock. Tally it up however you like stat-freaks. Why do these numbers seem to obsess straight and gay people alike?

...and most of the rest of them who say they didn't are probably lying. Nearly every woman I know has at least made out with another girl, if not had a little fun. I'm so glad God made me like girls.
I have no interest in men, and never have. That's just who I am, I'm attracted to both the body and mind of women. People need to shut up about experimenting sexuality and just love someone. If you like guys, great, if you like girls, great. You like both? Great. Go do it. Stop "experimenting"; you can feel an attraction to someone. Plenty of straight people who have been attracted to the opposite sex and have failed relationships. The person you end up with defines you "who you are." You end up falling in love with a man and you say you are bi? You're a girl who is straight, because odds are that you are not going to cheat on your man, thus making you straight, 'cause you only now have sex with this man. Yeah, you can be attracted to the other sex, okay, well, you're over that now, since you chose to be with him as a lifelong partner. Until that day you break up and find someone new or cheat the fuck out of him and he says it's a-okay, you can't be "bi." Likewise with a man who says he's bi and ends up with a guy. He's gay. It's just easier this way if you want to label. Well, unless all you do is have sex, then why bother labeling if you just have a ton of sex? You want a label, you can settle with "hypersexuality" or something. And congrats to those who surely know who they want to spend the rest of your lives with-- you already know if you're straight or not.
187.5% :)
Just a friendly reminder:
one typical manifestation of heterosexism is assuming that people who get it on with people of the same sex aren't actually queer, but have other motives other than good ole fashioned lust.
I know the attitude and the assumptions because I used to have the same ones before I turned into a homo myself.

Yesterday, the Otago Daily Times reported a 650m
section extending from the shopping centre, which had been
funded by Remarkables Park Ltd, was nearing completion and a
section at the northern end was required to enable Pak'n Save
and Mitre 10 Mega to operate.
Mr McCabe said the NZTA was also moving ahead with two
roundabouts - one on State Highway 6 just past Glenda Dr and
the other on the Eastern Access Rd. Construction was expected
to begin in November.
However, no application had yet been received by NZTA from
the Queenstown Lakes District Council to assist with funding
the bulk of the access road, which will ultimately connect
the Remarkables Park Shopping Centre to Glenda Dr and SH 6
via the back of Queenstown Airport.
Mr McCabe said the council had indicated it would try to
accelerate matters if possible, but there were ''some hoops
that have to be jumped through with that''.
Although the council had allocated $8.8 million for the
project in its draft annual plan, it was not included in the
National Land Transport Programme [NLTP] and, as yet, there
was no request for it to be. Regardless, there was ''still a
bit of water to go under the bridge before the council are
going to be in a position to do that, anyway'', he said.
''They can't apply for construction funding before they go
through [the] design [process]. They can't apply for either
until the project is scheduled in the NLTP [and] that only
has 18 months to go.
''I think, at best, we might get some design done ...
[within] this current NLTP, but construction ... if it's
going to be approved, the bulk will have to happen in the
next NLTP [from 2015-18].''
Mr McCabe said for the road to go into the next long-term
plan, the council would have to include the project in its
own programme and submit it to the regional council's
transport programme.
The regional committee would then prioritise projects and
submit those to the NZTA to be considered by its board as
part of the NLTP, where projects were ranked across 76 local
authorities and the state highways.
While he was ''confident'' the roads enabling the operation
of Pak'n Save and Mitre 10 Mega could be completed in 12
months, the progress of the remainder of the Eastern Access
Rd was still undetermined.
''I can't say with any confidence at this stage whether the
Eastern Access Rd will stack up or not because I haven't seen
any evidence to support it,'' Mr McCabe said.

'Glee: The Complete First Season'
(Blu-ray & DVD). Fox Home Entertainment ($69.99 Blu-ray; $59.99 DVD)
The lowdown: The Fox series that became an instant hit arrives in a four-disc Blu-ray or seven-disc DVD set with all 22 first-season episodes.
It's the music, the steps and Emmy-winner Jane Lynch's Sue Sylvester that has grabbed viewers.
The digital transfers in both formats are excellent; the audio tracks are especially strong.
Don't miss: Bonus features include extended episodes, a sing-along karaoke, a behind-the-scenes peek at the "Power of Madonna" episode, "Glee" makeovers, unaired "Sue's Corners" and a dance tutorial.
Rated: Not rated.
Critic's rating: Three-and-a-half stars.
'Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time'
(Blu-ray + DVD + digital copy). Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment ($44.99)
The lowdown: Jake Gyllenhaal (or his stunt man) did a lot of leaping and cavorting in this period adventure that failed to recapture the magic of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise.
This story of a prince, a princess and a magical dagger lacked spark.
The movie, which was released on May 28, cost a whopping $200 million to produce. In the United States, it earned $90.5 million, but took in a respectable $238.9 million overseas.
Critics were not that respectful, giving the film a 37 percent positive rating at Rottentomatoes.com, where Gannett Chief Film Critic Bill Goodykoontz of The Arizona Republic wrote, "It's meant to be fun, not work, but the plot is so loosely constructed it takes a lot of effort to piece things together. Better just to wait for Jake to mow down more bad guys and hit reset. Or, ahem, wait till the end."
The home-entertainment versions at least offers strong digital transfers in both formats.
Don't miss: The main DVD extra is a making-of featurette, which also appears on the Blu-ray along with a deleted scene.
The Blu-ray version also allows the viewer to take control of the magic dagger to go behind the scenes during various parts of the film.
Rated: PG-13 for action violence.
Critic's rating: Two stars.
'Letters to Juliet'
(Blu-ray + DVD).Summit Entertainment ($40.99)
The lowdown: Amanda Seyfried plays an aspiring young writer who travels to Verona and finds a 50-year-old letter that sets her on a journey that changes her life.
The Italian countryside in this romantic comedy is beautiful, abetted by solid visual and audio transfers in both formats.
The movie was released on May 14 and cost $30 million to produce. It took in $53 million domestically and $14.2 million in foreign markets.
Critically, it received a 41 percent positive rating on the tomatometer. Kerry Lengel of The Arizona Republic noted that "Letters to Juliet is a guilty pleasure for the ladies, perfect Blu-ray fodder when their significant others turn them into 'World of Warcraft' widows for the evening."
Don't miss: Bonus features include a making of documentary, deleted scenes, a peek at a courtyard in Verona and a commentary track.
Rated: PG for sensual images, bad behavior and smoking.
Critic's rating: Two-and-a-half stars.

The Elephant Wire Act LbNA # 19410
|Placed Date
|Nov 24 2005
|Occoquan, VA
|Found By
|Last Found
|Apr 23 2014
|Hike Distance
The Elephant Wire Act is located in Fountainhead Regional Park, 10875 Hampton Road, Fairfax Station, VA. Directions to the Park: I-95South, exit Occoquan and travel north on Rte. 123 approximately 5 miles. Turn left onto Hampton Road and drive 3 miles to entrance on the left.
The entire walk, from the yellow gate to the letter box, is about 3/4 of a mile one-way. From the trail head, the walk is a little more than 1/4 mile one-way.
Park is open 3/19-11/12 from dawn to dark. If you are traveling there during the off-season, you will need to park before the yellow gate and walk to the first large parking lot on your right. If you are driving, proceed through the yellow gate to the parking lot on your right.
Begin at the first trail head near the map of trails. The trail is marked by blue horseshoes. After about 15 yards the trail splits. The left is marked by blue horseshoes "pouring water." The right is marked by blue horsheshoe "holding water." Follow the trail to the right.
The trail curves right toward the picnic tables that you just walked by as you entered the trail ... and then turns left again.
Follow the trail under the "bridge tree."
Continue on the path until you reach the fence and must go either right or left.
Turn left on the trail.
Follow the trail until you find yourself at the top of a hill that you never climbed up.
Before you go down the hill, look to your left and you will see a long mossy ridge extending about 40 yards into the forest.
Climb up the small ridge and walk along its top to its end.
At the end, the ridge flattens out into what seems like a former path grown over.
Climb over one thin fallen tree.
Walk a little more.
Walk over one more thin fallen tree.
Walk a little more.
Walk over three thin trees lying close together across the path.
Find the first big tree on your right after that.
Extending out of the bottom right of the tree will be three barbed wires (now without their barbs) that the tree has grown around.
The Elephant Wire Act is hidden under leaves and brush behind it.
Leave your stamp and message!
Please stow the articles in the ziplock zipped, click the box closed, and cover it under plenty of brush and leaves.
Thanks for visiting!

Historical Traveler Reviews BEST WESTERN Inn & Suites At Discovery Kingdom Vallejo
No cribs available, even if they say so.
The front desk said there would be a baby crib available, and I should simply ask for it when I arrive at check-in. Once I got there, they brought what looked like a 15 year old playpen with a large hole in the side of it: Big enough for a baby to stick his head through. Realizing there were no cribs, I sent the playpen back, asking for a new playpen. I waited about three hours, and nobody returned my call. After calling the front desk four different times (as the baby was crying to go to sleep), it turns out, this is the only playpen (which they were calling a "crib") that was available in the entire facility.
The truth is they do not have cribs, but they specifically told me on the phone that they would have a crib available. A 15 year old playpen with a hole in it is NOT a crib!
The beds are clean and there was a Gideon'sBible in the drawer.
The movies are $11 per movie.
The water pressure in the shower is the best I've ever experienced in a motel, although the shower curtains don't fit well, and the whole floor of the bathroom is wet after a shower.
The rooms are overpriced. If Marine World weren't close by, they probably would charge about $59 per night instead of over a hundred dollars.
If you DO stay in Vallejo, there was a very good Italian restaurant to get delivery from in the phone book. It's called NUJO's and their pizza is very very good, and they have a full menu for delivery.
Breakfast at 9 am has about 30 people packed into a tiny room that looks like its built for 15. The first thing I saw when I arrived was a person coughing all over the waffle maker. Needless to say, I skipped breakfast.
Terrible ! Beware: we had 3 ant nests in our room
We travelled during spring break to celebrate our daughters birthday. Booked 3 nights at this hotel because of its close location to Six Flags/Marine World.
At check-in the desk staff were incredibly rude and not helpful. Our room was reasonable but we soon discovered that there were ant nests in the old carpet. One nest in the bathroom where ants were crawling out of the holes in the carpet, another nest somewhere in the kitchenette where ants were crawling everywhere around the microwave, coffee maker and the sink ! and another nest in the bedroom. Our daughter and myself could hardly stand being in that room. Manager was nowhere to be found. Staff offered to 'spray with insecticide" but we would not be able to sleep in a toxic room ! After much complaining and very much frustration, they finally offered us another room ! Late at night we had to pack up and move all our stuff 2 floors up. Manager finally spoke with us next day and promised free room nights. The complimentary continental breakfast was a joke; worst we have ever seen. Cereal was spilled everywhere on the counter and there was one tray with danish that was almost empty (and stayed empty!) and one bowl with apples ! Milk and Yogurt were kept out in the open, and were not refridgerated. Housekeeping was not done, room was left without amenities or towels. No apologies were ever offered for anything. Upon check-out we signed for the reduced bill but discovered days later that the hotel had processed the full rate for 2 days anyway. We are disputing these charges and warn anyone who even considers visiting Vallejo to NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL !
Great service and spacious room! I will visit this place again!
The Best Western Inn & Suites at Marine World is 'hands-down' the best I've stayed at in Vallejo. The rooms were very spacious, that staff was extremely helpful, and the newly renovated property was beautiful.
I will stay at this property again. Five Stars!
Terrible place
the rooms were decent, clean and spacious, but the hotel staff was incredibly rude and not helpful. the hotel grounds were dirty and the place smelled of smoke. I will never stay at the best western again.
Nice place to stay
The hotel rooms have been remodeled since last year when I stayed here. They are very nice now and very clean. My room included a fridge, Micro and sink (all new). The only problem I had during this stay was that the rooms were not ready at check-in and I had somewhere to be before 4:00. It was very inconvenient and a lot of people were angry. Other than that, the employees were super nice and tried to be helpful. The pool area was very noisy with lots of children and adults rough-housing. If you can, avoid getting a room overlooking the pool or you won't get any peace until 10:00. The continental breakfast was not as good as years past - just a few choices of fruit, 2 choices of cereal and various pastries that they always seemed to be out of. It was always crowded in the room and they didn't stock up as often as they should have. That is a common problem though with continental breakfasts. I plan to stay here again next year and I would recommend it.
A Perfect Stay!
The rooms were brand new and the staff was helpful.
One of the best hotel experiences I've had.
Definitely recommended!
Needs Adult Supervision
The night we arrived (11/04), it didn't seem that anyone over the age of 25 was in charge. There was totally inappropriate music blaring in the lobby, and the smell of cigarette smoke was pretty overwhelming. In our non-smoking room, the bedding reeked of smoke.
Interestingly, I was required to sign a "no party" agreement .... but judging from the music, smoke and attitude of the front desk help, I'm thinking they were partying enough for both of us.
I will not stay there again.
Would Not Stay Again
We stayed Aug 4th 2004. Our stay included: Cont Break, 2 Q beds, micro, fridge, cable, pool, coffeemaker, ice, data port Comments: this sounded good on paper, the hotel was fine, the room was good sized, had basic amenities, the staff was helpful however, I would not stay here again. I was looking for a family friendly alternative to Napa and thought this would be good since it was near Marine World. Big mistake - the area is not good. I didn't feel safe. There was even a panhandler outside the door of the hotel. The hotel did call the police on him but still the damage had been done. Two mothers got into a cat fight over the facilities in the laundry room because there is only one washer and dryer on this large property and alot of families (translate lots of clothes). Was NOT a highlight on our trip. Maybe look for another nearby city or hotel row off freeway.
Pretty Nice
I recently stayed at the Best Western Inn at Marine World in Vallejo. I chose this hotel as an alternative to the more expensive hotels closer to Napa Valley. I was pleasantly surprised that this hotel exceeded my expectations. The hotel was quite nice. The rooms were nice and roomy and very clean. The refrigerator and microwave were a nice plus. The continental breakfast wasn't bad either. The proximity to wine country was a little further than I had expected, but other than that -- I would definitely stay there again.
Loved it
My first experience with this hotel is when I called the front dest full of questions about the property and the packages they had to offer. The desk clerk (Orlando) explained the Marine World Package's available and helped me decide what the best deal for my family would be. Great first impression. We arrived early (10 A.M.) on Saturday morning and were able to check right into our room. After unloading the car and going to our room, we were able to catch the shuttle (that runs for free) to Marine World. Before getting out of the shuttle the driver gave us the hotels business card so we could call when we needed to be picked up. We found that the customer service of this hotel to be great!!
The room we stayed in was spacious, and clean. The queen size beds were comfortable, and the shower pressure was wonderful, something that you don't usually find in a hotel.
The continental breakfast was a great plus too. I would definatly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a NICE, CLEAN, FRIENDLY place to stay while visiting Vallejo.

Hop on Hop off
... Square that our hotel was on, plenty of shops that didn't give the price, meaning it was too expensive. We got on the bus to Golden Gate Park and the driver recommended going up to the top floor of a random art gallery. Views over the whole city - stunning. The Park is huge, it took us a couple of hours to walk end to end but when we got there we'd reached the Pacific Ocean, number 3 on my ocean-spotting list! Lunch was clam chowder in a bread bowl, a ...

... metro, and bus home. Seriously, most complicated transit system ever! On the metro Alex and I got freaked out by the guy sitting in front of us who was the spitting image of James Ward! Maybe ten years older, but it was spooky how identical he looked to James, from the hair to the mannerisms. I managed to take some sneaky pictures to prove there actually are doppelgangers out there! He is not the first person I've seen who looked like someone I know, but it was the only time I ...
Ghirardelli Square and Lombard Street
We had another sleep in, awoken by housekeeping knocking on the door. We got ourselves up and ready before heading out the door and down towards another route on the cable car. We headed Brough Chinatown and took some snaps before finding the cable car and jumping on. We were only the second couple on which was good. There was plenty of room for us to enjoy the view. We hopped off along the Powell ...
... also incredibly interesting. The audio tour is a 'must do' as you learn so much that you wouldn't take in just wandering around on your own.
Other San Fran highlights...
- Painted Ladies - Alamo Square - picturesque houses down Steiner St
- Lombard Street - famous windy street
- Cable car - a little bit mental but good fun - this can be taken from Union Square to Fisherman's Wharf and costs $6 one way
San Francisco time!
After a great conference and after having seen the highlights of Seattle, it's time for the second part of my trip: San Francisco! Flying there as I type so no impressions of the city yet. I'm more than sure that that's gonna change pretty soon ;) But first a short update on my time in Seattle. As I mentioned the conference was once again really good! Despite it being the worlds main conference on environmental ...

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources says there are new seismographs near a brine injection well in Youngstown that will help to determine if the well is causing minor earthquakes.
Andy Ware, a deputy director at ODNR, told The Vindicator the state environmental regulator has entrusted the Lamont- Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University to set up the seismographs in the Mahoning Valley.
The Lamont-Doherty Cooperative Seismographic Network was the organization that first reported a magnitude 2.1 earthquake Nov. 25, which had an epicenter just a few blocks from a D&L Energy Inc. brine injection well.
Brine is a byproduct of fracking, a process in which water, chemicals and sand are blasted into rocks thousands of feet below the ground to unlock natural oil and gas.
"ODNR is very closely monitoring and will continue to monitor the seismic events in the Youngstown well area," Ware said. "This equipment will be able to provide us with immediate reporting and accurate analysis of an event's epicenter."
Lamont-Doherty has set up four "valuable" seismograph devices on private land in quadrants surrounding the well, Ware said.
The locations of the seismographs are not being disclosed.
The area now has five seismographs; the fifth, part of the Ohio Seismic Network, is at Youngstown State University.
The technology will be used to determine with accuracy an earthquake's depth, should there be another temblor.
Seismologists say earthquake depth can be determined by a seismograph, but multiple stations are needed to pinpoint precise depths.
The Nov. 25 earthquake was the eighth with an epicenter in Mahoning County; all have occurred this year, after a magnitude 2.6 earthquake March 17.
Seven of those earthquakes had epicenters near the D&L well, on Ohio Works Drive on the city's West Side.
It's depth, like the seven other Valley quakes this year, is estimated about 7,500 feet below the bottom of the D&L well.
Injection wells have been known to cause earthquakes in some instances, such as in Colorado's Rangely Oil Fields in the 1960s, geologists have said.
Pressure increases at the D&L Youngstown site have preceded some of the earthquakes, according to ODNR documents acquired by The Vindicator.
The well can inject brine at a maximum of 2,500 pounds per square inch.
D&L did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Ware said ODNR also has increased the number of inspections and unannounced inspections at injection well sites.
State Rep. Robert F. Hagan, D-60th, who has previously called for a moratorium on all drilling-related activity, said the addition of the seismographs are a "great first start."
"Do we have more to do? Yes," Hagan told The Vindicator. "We will continue to get out to the people of this Valley all the information that will be needed to make sure we are drilling and injecting in a safe and reliable way."
I know this is an important new industry for our struggling economy, but there are so many fracking related issues I don't see being addressed in Youngstown, earthquakes being just one of them.
U.S. Government Confirms Link Between Earthquakes and Hydraulic Fracturing
On 5 November an earthquake measuring 5.6 rattled Oklahoma and was felt as far away as Illinois.
Until two years ago Oklahoma typically had about 50 earthquakes a year, but in 2010, 1,047 quakes shook the state.
In Lincoln County, where most of this past weekend's seismic incidents were centered, there are 181 injection wells, according to Matt Skinner, an official from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, the agency which oversees oil and gas production in the state.
Cause and effect?
The practice of injecting water into deep rock formations causes earthquakes, both the U.S. Army and the U.S. Geological Survey have concluded.
I would anticipate the Mahoning commissioners will include earthquake insurance for Oak Hill in the new budget. Maybe special event insurance if we have 10 quakes by the end of the year the employees at Oak Hill get a paid day vacation.
hagan's looking for a handout. and so the site is monitored and earthquakes happen ,then what ?
If Hagan gave a hoot about clean water he would be on the forefront of having the Kish Landfill dug up and removed .
Natural gas is clean energy . Hydrofracturing has been used in its extraction for decades .
Extra taxation on the gas extracted is the goal . Job scarcity can be traced to the high energy costs brought about by the no drill policy . Will extra taxation help ?
OK after reading all the well thought out comments by the most knowledgeable people in the valley . Stan the man is the one with all the know how . GO STAN
Since an earthquake is the release of stored up, or potential energy, in the earth's crust, the injection drilling would not be the cause of the seismic activity but it may be the trigger for the release of energy. As for the job creation, it seems to me that there are quite a few vehicles parked in the old lots along Rte 422 in Girard for the tradesmen working in the V&M Star tube mill. Since the mill is going to make, and finish, small diameter pipe for use in the drilling industry, I think it is safe to say that some jobs are coming out of the increased drilling activity. But, the real bonanza in the Utica shale formation is the wet gas that can be refined into numerous components, i.e. methane, butane, propane, ethane. This could spawn a resurgence of the chemical industry.
As for the environmental issues, the main concern with the drilling is the drilling site work and handling of the flowback from the fracking wells. If inspectors are watchful from the ODNR, there will be minimal risk. This shouldn't be a problem withthe major players but wildcat drillers could be an issue. Since the geologists indicate that the safest disposal method is deep-well injection, have at it. However, if an above-ground treatment process can be shown to be effective, this should also be explored.
While I have serious doubts about the quantity of permanent jobs that will be created, there will definitely be a good number. It is a very exciting time for our area, in spite of Buckwheat's comments!

I am debugging a large application distributed over many units. I ran into a compilation error in a low level unit and do not have the slightest idea in which part of the application this unit is referenced. Is there a way to use RAD studio 2010's IDE to create some kind of include-graph?
As most of the units used are not part of the project and spread over quite a branchy source tree, i can not simply use the 'find in files' option.
I am currently traversing through my tree using a search-in-files-utility, but this is cumbersome.
Do you know of amore elegant way? Development is in Embercadero RAD studio 2010, windows XP 32.

Australia could make a decision tonight on whether to risk injured skipper Michael Clarke in their Champions Trophy opener against England on Saturday.
Clarke is a major doubt for the match having aggravated a long-standing back problem after arriving in the United Kingdom from Australia last week.
The 32-year-old left the team's training camp yesterday to undergo treatment in London and Australia physiotherapist Alex Kountouris admitted Clarke was "in a race against time" to be fit to play England at Edgbaston.
Clarke's place in the short tournament could also be under threat with Kountouris admitting the right-hander was suffering pain from the problem, which flared while he was batting in the nets last week.
"We're hoping to make a decision on him reasonably quickly," Kountoris told Cricket Australia's website.
"He's been in London since yesterday to do the treatment that he usually gets. There's some equipment there that we use.
"We are trying to maximise the time he has got over there so sometime tonight or tomorrow we'll make that decision (whether he plays against England)."
Australia will attempt to claim a hat-trick of Champions Trophy successes over the next fortnight; however, their ultimate goal this summer is the Ashes.
With the first Test at Trent Bridge just over a month away Kountouris admitted Australia would not take any unnecessary risks with their captain.
"We are just trying to get him right. He has had this before so we know how it plays out and we know the treatment that he needs to get him right," he said.
"But being such a short tournament we're racing against time to get him fit.
"We certainly won't be taking any risks. This is an important tournament as well and he'll be a big part of the decision-making process.
"It is a really important time of the year for us, that goes without saying.
"This is an important tournament too so we'll get him up for whatever games we can and won't take any stupid risks.
"Unfortunately he's had this several times so we know where he needs to be. Firstly he needs to be pain free, which he's not at the moment.
"Then we need to put him through a series of tests, get him running and batting and get him doing things he'd normally do. We need him training at full intensity before we get him on the park."
It is the second time this year that the injury has flared up after Clarke was forced home early from Australia's 4-0 Test series defeat at the hands of India.
The New South Welshman was first diagnosed with the problem as a teenager but until this year has been largely able to cope with the problem.
"He gets little tiny setbacks and we manage them and they get better in a day or two days," Kountouris said.
"We're just hoping this is no different. He was disappointed when it first happened but he's a pretty resilient guy and he is just focused on what he has to do.
"He's really motivated and professional about how he goes about about his rehab."
Asked if the long flight from Australia had caused the problem, Kountouris added: "No. It was just when we started training here he felt a bit stiff.
"It was only when we got over here. He was pretty good back in Australia. He'd done all the training camps and did quite well.
"It's just one of those things; hard to know what the cause of it is. He was just batting in the nets and just felt it."

I'm pretty sure this photographer was there first. It was waiting to be copied...
If this a series for India why is everyone so white then? or was is done for some overseas clients?
BUT if this was meant for India what does it say...were ashamed of using brown people in our advert or maybe we just wanna used some white people to make it look more international because brown looking isnt international enough or worst maybe its meant for indian market where to be pretty and be in adverts you have to be white.
Come someone from there please explain or are you afraid of your own looks.

Re: Very Nervous - IN THE PROCESS OF RENTING (Needs Advice)
from my experience with my (crappy) scores they always asked for a higher deposit I usually had to put 1 months rent down as a deposit. I went to one apartment complex and they told me they take both applicants historys and combine and divide it by two.. and take that average as if u were one person. Which IMO she should be able to bring u both up high enough for standard deposits or whatver special they have.
every apartment situation is different though but those are my experiences renting.
+1 on buying. I live in the Bay Area, CA and here you can own a condo for at least $500 less than you can rent. All the foreclosed homes caused people to move into apartments and drive up the prices. As soon as I get my scores up above 680 and get a promotion at work im going to be applying for my first mortgage. best way to go!
im 24 btw if i can be a home owner by 25 i think that would be an accomplishment!!

I'm on Maverick trying to access shared folders hosted on Windows machines across a home network. Mysteriously I stopped being able to see them through Nautilus (I couldn't even open Windows network and see my own machine), nor using "smbclient -L //HOSTNAME" from the command line. The error code I got was NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL.
I discovered the problem was I had recently started using OpenDNS and Samba resolves local hostnames using DNS. Of course, OpenDNS can't resolve my local network hostnames.
The solution is to edit your Samba configuration so that the hostnames are resolved locally and then restart Samba:

Good stuff, with some new, fuck-hungry faces
In the best scene here, Alyssa Allure is about to get into a fourway when she calls Howard (played by David Luger) into the room, and sits him down so that he can learn something. The conservative, bewildered Howard sits and watches as Allure and Elena get worked over good and hard by Tice Buné and John Strong. Every so often Allure orders Howard to put his face in her cunt and watch how a real man fucks or tells him to slap her pussy. Finally, Strong unloads on Elena's ass, then Allure licks it off before the two take a double facial. Presumably, Howard is to learn how a facial is achieved, too.
The rest of the tape has just as much raw sex, if less humor, in five scenes of threeways and couples.
