I took my extended family and the holiday was wonderful. the accomodation was pricey but very nice. The staff were most helpful.
Katrina was the person who checked us in and was our helper and adviser throughout our stay. She was always helpful and friendly. Also the people who arranged our reservations and the billing staff were very kind and helpful at every step. The rental was top-notch.
We took a chance and left the Kaanapali location to head north to Kapalua. Boy - we should have made the move many years before. This villa is absolutely beautiful and the management company leaves nothing for the vacationer to worry about. As a family with children, it is always difficult to meet everyone's needs. This villa and location did just that ... We look forward to our future vacations at the Ritz Villas :-)
Very nice home. Everything as advertised. No surprises. Great experience.

Discussion in 'Star Trek Movies XI+' started by Admiral Buzzkill, May 23, 2013.
Why? Afraid "the gay" will rub off on you? You better quit watching pretty much anything, because its likely that someone gay is involved in pretty much every movie/TV show.
All I care about is if the actor/actress can act.
What are you going to do with all those Liberace records and Gomer Pyle DVDs?
Or classic Elton John records?
Okay, all - I think that geneo's little pet hate has had quite enough time on the soapbox. Let's make the thread about something else, beginning right now.
Star Trek III... and speculate!
I think it will be about Klingons. May or may not involve war with same.
Hmmm... in-between Star Trek 09 and Into Darkness, I do vaguely recall remarks (I won't say quotes, because that would imply that I remember verbatim what was said, and I don't) from either Lindelof, Abrams, or Orci (can't remember who it was exactly) in which the essence was, that Into Darkness might not have a villain, as such - rather, the obstacle / challenge being space itself... ???
With Into Darkness now been and gone, it doesn't really fit with what I'm trying very badly to describe... so I'm wondering if it could shed any light on the next movie (perhaps)...
Sorry for an absolutely vague suggestion of a obscure (and unreferenced remark)... I distinctly remember being rather intrigued by the comments, so my apologies for not actually bringing to the table a solid quotable quote...
Does anyone remember hearing anything like this?
If so, I'd appreciate any help you could provide, on shedding light on this rather hazy recollection of mine... otherwise I do believe I might have been recalling conversations that never actually occurred!
Your recollections are pretty close to the mark, if I myself recall correctly.
I remember it too - something about space itself or nature being the enemy. It never materialized in the last film (unless they were referring to the gravity failing when the Enterprise fell to Earth?), let's hope we get something like that in 2016.
If it is space itself or something like a force of nature, could it be V'ger? Or a Queen-less Borg?
I think those remarks about space/nature being the enemy were simply intended as a misdirection aimed at the fans, courtesy of JJ's obsession with secrecy and surprise. Not unlike when Karl Urban "accidentally" let it slip that Cumberbatch was playing Gary Mitchell in STID. Just another red herring.
War with the Klingons. Tragic romance with Carol Marcus (in the end she takes the kid and leaves). Maybe the return of Khan and/or repercussions from Kirk's blood transfusion from Khan. That's my call.
They meant the blank space on a notebook page labeled "ORIGINAL IDEAS".
I remember it also, and I think the comments might have come from Orci. However, this would have been very early on in the process of developing a story for what eventually became Star Trek Into Darkness, and as I recall it the notion of obstacle/challenge being a natural phenomenon/space itself (as opposed to a villain character) was only one of a number of possible story ideas being kicked around at the time. I didn't (and still don't) get any sense of an intent to deceive or misdirect, just that they ultimately ended up going with character villain(s) instead.
He also got a list of possible villains, where Khan was not included, and stated that one of those was definitely in it.
Either they completely rewrote the script on a daily basis, or he is just a lying dude. I don't get why he would feel the need to play those kind of games with fans.
Who got a list? Was it Orci, or was it Devin Faraci and his never-identified "inside source"?
I didn't remember the comments in question, so I didn't know they were made very early in the writing process. Of course it's very possible they were just kicking around different ideas and seriously considered having that type of "villain" in STID. Then again, this group is so obsessed with secrecy and surprising the audience that it's not far-fetched to think they would resort to deliberate misdirection. Which is why I have a healthy amount of skepticism about everything the creative team says about any upcoming Trek film.
There are just so many threads left open from STID, it's hard for me to believe the writers will go with a completely new story. This line in particular stands out to me:
"War is coming! And who's going to lead us? You?"
But of course anything is possible.
Nothing wrong with skepticism; I'm skeptical of a lot of things myself. With J.J., however, the focus seems to be less on keeping secrets and more about not letting the audience in on something before it's time for them to know - always keep them wondering, and even at the end of the story there might be a few things left untold.
Anything, indeed, but I think you're probably right in figuring that at least a few leftover threads will get picked up again for the next one.
From IMDB:
Screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman explained that the dilemma for the sequel was whether to pit the crew against another villain, or to have an "exploration sci-fi plot where the unknown and nature itself is somehow an adversary", like in "Star Trek"
Would have been interesting if they could have pulled it off. Sounds like it was just too problematic to accomplish, though. That is, provided it wasn't some information smoke screen in the first place.
Separate names with a comma.

It is my opinion that The Standard-Times should not publish letters that literally accuse members of Congress of sedition. Neil Dias ("Your View: Tea party's role has harmed the country," Oct. 17) does just that, in my opinion, in his second and third paragraphs when he says: "that is happening as we speak," and "Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and House Speaker John Boehner conspired to overthrow the government. ... They conspired with the heads of the tea party organizers behind closed doors for months in preparation to plan to shut down the government causing havoc."
The writer has no proof of conspiracy to offer; makes wild accusations not based on any truths or facts; and is asking for a kangaroo court to boot Cruz and Boehner out of office. He is pointing fingers at the wrong parties.
The U.S. Constitution provides for two houses of Congress: the Senate and the House of Representatives. These two bodies have different agendas. The House holds the purse strings. Not the Senate and certainly not the president. It is the Senate's job to advise and report on bills that the House wishes to pass; when the two bodies agree, they then send the bills forward to the president for signature or further comment. Fourteen bills were placed on Harry Reid's desk during the "meltdown" and he did not take one to the floor of the Senate — not one. His role was to serve as an obstructionist in order to placate a president who actually was holding Congress hostage, not the other way around. The president has no right to say to anyone that he will bankrupt the country if he does not get his way. None. The president of this country does not get to tell the Congress what is spent and when it will be spent. That is the law under the Constitution. Also, the fact is, had the nation gone beyond the debt date, the Treasury is charged to pay the interest on existing debt first, before any other bills are paid. That is a fact. Receipts into the Treasury are currently more than sufficient to pay the interest on the debt. The United States would not have gone broke and the government would not have failed. In fact, only 17 percent of the government was shut down; 83 percent was still functioning 100 percent.
Dias also mixes up the budget with the Affordable Care Act. The fact is, the ACA was passed only by Democrats, no one else voted on it or for it in the Republican Party. It also was passed using parliamentary tricks and not voted on or discussed in committee, where Republicans would have had an opportunity to review and comment. Not once were they permitted to do so. So, the statement that "We voted in the people we felt best represent us, and win or lose, laws have been created and we must abide by them." The fact is, that my congressional representatives never had a chance to vote on or review a law which was "passed so we can get to see what's in it." In my opinion, that is a long way from representative government "of the people, by the people and for the people."
Finally, no law is above scrutiny, as Dias implies: "Who is anyone to do this, and get away with this?" We are not getting away with anything. We are exercising our constitutional rights; every law is subject to review and modify or repeal; this is a republic; not a socialist dictatorship. There are two sides to any story in this country. The problem is, because so many people are so biased and narrow-minded, the civil debate that was the hallmark of this country and its government is going by the wayside, because people think they have all the answers, when, in fact, the factual knowledge they need to engage in a rational debate isn't part of the debate.

text: From Chanel to Elie Tahari: Fashion greats embroiled in controversies by Daniel Bukszpan @FortuneMagazine June 17, 2015, 9:01 AM EDT E-mail Tweet Facebook Linkedin Share icons Elie Tahari, Ltd. is a fashion company founded by Israeli immigrant Elie Tahari in 1974. His philosophy is simple: "Clothing should be quieter than the woman so that her true beauty can shine through." Speaking of quiet women, Tahari may be wishing that fashion consultant Marcy Castelgrande were one right about now. On Friday, The New York Daily News reported that she filed a $12 million sexual harassment lawsuit against him. The suit alleges that in an incident that occurred in December 2011, he touched her inappropriately in front of "at least ten people," then fired her when she complained about it. The New York Daily News contacted both Tahari's attorney and a spokesperson for the company, and both declined to comment. This comes less than two months after designer Catherine Malandrino sued him for $15 million. According to her attorney, Tahari and his partner bought a 75 percent interest in her eponymous brand in 2011 for $5 million and a five-year compensation deal. But rather than expand it, he sold it to the brand management company Bluestar Alliance and allegedly cut her out of the $7 million deal. "We are surprised that she has chosen this course of action and sure that the courts will agree that the lawsuit is completely baseless and without merit," a Tahari spokesman said to The New York Post. If there's a there there, then Tahari joins the very long line of scandal-plagued fashion industry figures. This begs the question, is there something about this industry that causes high degrees of melodrama? Or are its personalities simply mercurial types who inspire gossip because they're more famous than the rest of us? Whatever the case, Tahari is not alone when it comes to fashion figures who made headlines for more than just their silhouettes. Some just made thoughtless remarks, while others engaged in behavior that was truly heinous.

Now in Cain's Corner: Libel Lawyer Lin Wood
Herman Cain has sent a not-so-subtle message to his accusers and would-be accusers through his choice in counsel: L. Lin Wood, the Atlanta-based libel and defamation heavy whose client list includes Richard Jewell, the parents of JonBenet Ramsey and former Congressman Gary Condit.
Wood, who appeared beside Cain Tuesday during the Republican presidential candidate's news conference in Scottsdale, Ariz., was hired this week after rumors of a fourth woman bringing sexual accusations against Cain emerged, according to this report in TheAtlanta Journal-Constitution. Click here for his firm bio.
"I'm not here to scare anyone off," Wood, 59, told the AJC, referring to the prospect of more allegations. "[However] they should think twice, anyway."
He added: "I've been brought in to bring an element of fairness to the accusations being brought against Mr. Cain."
Wood (pictured) jumped on the map with his representation of Jewell, the security guard who was wrongly pegged as a suspect in the 1996 Centennial Park bombing. Jewell sued the AJC and other news media. The lawsuit against the AJC is on appeal, but several other news outlets settled.
More from his highlight reel here and here.
"He was pretty good at scaring CNN, NBC and the New York Post into quick settlements in the Jewell case," Atlanta lawyer Jack Martin, who originally represented Jewell during the criminal investigation, told AJC. "I wouldn't be surprised if he employs a scorched-earth policy here.
Brandon Hornsby, a lawyer who has worked with Wood, disagreed.
"But I don't think the message is that Cain is pursuing litigation; I think it's that he'll cut to the chase in getting to the matter of truth," Hornsby told the newspaper.
Wood left Bryan Cave after five years and launched his own firm, Wood, Hernacki & Evans, in May.

ST. LOUIS – St. Louis Blues President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Doug Armstrong announced Monday the club has signed forward Brenden Morrow to a one-year contract.
Morrow, 34, posted 11 points (six goals, five assists) and 18 penalty minutes in 29 games with Dallas last season before being acquired by Pittsburgh at the trade deadline.
Morrow went on to log 14 points (six goals, eight assists) in 19 penalty minutes in his final 15 regular season games with the Penguins as well as four points (two goals, two assists) and eight penalty minutes in 14 playoff appearances.
Prior to joining Pittsburgh, Morrow spent his entire 13-year career in Dallas, where he served as the team's captain since 2006. Overall, the 6-foot, 210-pound forward has dressed in 850 career games, accumulating 542 points (249 goals and 293 assists) to go along with 1,222 penalty minutes.
In addition, Morrow has tallied 46 points (19 goals, 27 assists) and 108 penalty minutes in 92 career playoff games.
Internationally, the Carlyle, Saskatchewan native has skated for Team Canada on seven different occasions, most notably winning the gold medal in the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. He also won gold in the 2004 World Cup of Hockey and 2004 World Championships, and silver in the 2005 World Championships and the 1999 World Juniors.
Morrow was originally drafted by Dallas in the first round, 25th overall, of the 1997 NHL Draft.

Predicting the flow of money into Albany is hazardous in any economic climate. Anticipate too much revenue and budgets have to be adjusted late in the year, usually after contracts and supplies have already taken what turns out to be more than they should have. Anticipate too little and people complain that they paid taxes that were not needed in the end.
Predicting the flow in the volatile environment of the past few years has been even more troubling, and the latest news from the man in charge of these prognostications — or at least the man who gets the blame when they turn out to be off target — demonstrates just how hard it can be to get this right.
Thomas DiNapoli, the state comptroller, reported late last week that the state came up $213 million short of its estimate for tax revenue in the first half of the fiscal year. Even with so many signs of a recovery filling the news, the state took in a bit less than it did in the previous year.
The problem was not in the collection of sales taxes. There was a bit of an improvement there, verifying reports that people are starting to spend a bit more, if only to replace the things they have put off replacing. Even that good news was not that great, because the state had expected to see even more of an increase.
The troubling indicator for this year and the future is the decline in income-tax collections, a reflection of decreased wages, often attributed to decreased hours, even as the unemployment rate is stable or declining in many parts of the country.
At this rate, to keep the budget balanced the state would have to see an increase in all tax revenue of more than 6 percent, a figure that no one is banking on. And no matter what happens in the elections or in the post-election debates over the looming federal tax and spending changes, there is likely to be no extra help available for states.
So if the state cannot rely on the federal government and will have to find ways to trim expenditures to meet the constitutional requirement of a balanced budget, even allowing for the creative accounting that governors and comptrollers employ to swear that they have met that goal, that means local governments should not be counting on any more help to balance their own books.
This will have serious repercussions on villages, cities, towns, counties and school districts, all of which have been feeling the pinch of the state's 2-percent tax increase cap and regularly complaining that they cannot go through any more rounds of budgets cuts while continuing to deliver the services they consider basic.
All of this will increase pressure on legislators and voters to approve proposals that promise to increase revenue, especially the constitutional amendment allowing casino gambling and the permits for hydraulic fracturing to extract natural gas. That makes it even more important for the state to get a handle on the real costs of these proposals, instead of looking only at the projected benefits.

NASHVILLE – The Oilers got goals from Taylor Hall and Shawn Horcoff but three goals in a row for the Nashville Predators resulted in a 3-2 win for the home team on Monday night at Bridgestone Arena.
Hall deflected a Corey Potter point shot on the power play 7:53 into the opening frame, and after the Preds got goals from Sergei Kostitsyn, Kevin Klein and Chris Mueller, Horcoff scored on a third-period deflection to close the gap. It was too little too late for the Oil, though, as Nashville held on to win by one.
"Our urgency was there in the third, but you're not going to make playoffs if you don't maintain that for 60 minutes," Head Coach Ralph Krueger said post-game. "Our five-on-five game didn't have enough passion to match what Nashville was bringing at us."
"It's just not enough... 20 minutes against good teams is just not enough," Horcoff added. "We've got to find a way to play loose and aggressive like we did in the third. Tonight we were just too tight."
Edmonton has now dropped back-to-back regulation decisions and is 0-2-1 in the last three games, dropping to 11-13-7 on the season.
The Oilers start Devan Dubnyk in net, Nick and Justin Schultz up front and the forward line of Taylor Hall, Shawn Horcoff and Ales Hemsky as the two-game road trip begins.
Magnus Paajarvi fires the first Oilers shot on goal about a minute and a half into the game, cruising down the right wing and flicking a wrist shot from a tough angle that is snagged by Pekka Rinne's glove.
Gabriel Bourque tries to feed Mike Fisher in front of the Oilers net but Dubnyk knocks the puck out of harm's way, seconds before Horcoff trips up Fisher and gets called for hooking for the first penalty of the night with 16:11 to go in the opening frame. A nice Dubnyk glove save denies Nashville's best scoring attempt on the man advantage, and the Oilers earn the successful penalty kill.
Corey Potter makes his presence felt early in his first action since March 15 against the Detroit Red Wings, laying a solid body-check on Taylor Beck at the Preds blue line. Not long after, with Patrick Hornqvist in the box for interference, Potter unleashes a wicked point shot that beats Rinne for his first goal of the season to give Edmonton a 1-0 lead with 12:07 on the clock.
Looking to rally his team after giving up the opening goal, Nashville's Rich Clune takes out Jordan Eberle with a hip-check in front of the Preds bench. Eberle is slow to get up but no worse for wear.
The Preds draw even with 8:09 to go in the opening frame as Fisher feeds a crisp pass to Sergei Kostitsyn on the doorstep for the one-timer past Dubnyk. For Kostitsyn, it's his third goal of the season.
Jonathon Blum gets called for high-sticking and the Oilers go back on the power play with 4:34 to go in the first period. They generate a handful of solid scoring chances but can't get another one past Rinne.
The opening frame comes to an end with the teams knotted 1-1 and Nashville leading shots 10-7. The Preds will start the middle frame with a 50-second power play as Ladislav Smid got called for interference with 1:10 to go in the first.
The Oilers open the middle frame by successfully killing the remainder of Smid's penalty but the Preds tally the go-ahead goal with 15:29 to go in the period. Seconds after Justin Schultz foils a Martin Erat breakaway attempt, Nashville executes some rapid passing and Kevin Klein is able to score his second of the year into an open Oilers cage.
Dubnyk makes his best save of the night with 9:32 to go in the middle frame as he flashes the leather for an empthatic glove stop on Chris Mueller on a two-on-one Nashville breakout.
Mueller certainly makes good on his next attempt, however, deking his way past the Oilers defence and roofing a hard shot over top of Dubnyk's glove-side shoulder, off the bar and in to make it 3-1 for the home side. It's Mueller's second goal of the season, coming with 8:27 left in the period.
Second period comes to an end with the Preds leading 3-1 on strength of their two goals in the middle frame. Nashville is also ahead in shots 22-14 through 40 minutes.
The Oilers start the third period down a centreman as Eric Belanger has left the game, re-aggravating his groin.
Coach Ralph Krueger has put the Oilers "kid line" back together as Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is now playing centre between Hall and Eberle.
Early in the third, Mike Brown hammers Clune into the boards in the Oilers zone, exacting some revenge for the hard hit Clune made on Eberle in the opening frame.
Playing back with Horcoff and Hemsky, Hall and his linemates bursts into the Preds zone with Hemsky pass to a streaking Horcoff in the middle and the captain deflecting a shot that trickles through Rinne for an Oilers goal. The Preds lead is cut to 3-2 with 12:57 remaining.
The Oilers go back on the power play shortly thereafter as Blum goes off for boarding, but they are unable to score the equalizer, with Rinne making an impressive point-blank save on a Nail Yakupov one-timer with 10:35 to go.
Edmonton gets another key power-play opportunity as David Legwand chips the puck over the glass on a clearing attempt and gets called for delay of game.
Newly-formed forward line of Brown, Ryan Smyth and Ryan Jones goes to work in the Nashville zone, getting the puck on net. Brown pokes away at Rinne's pads, leading to a bit of a dust-up behind the Preds net, but no penalties are called.
Dubnyk goes to the bench for the extra attacker with 56 seconds remaining but the Oilers can't score the equalizer and drop a 3-2 decision.

Peter and Elsie Lovell have been married for 74 years and are determined to make up for lost time together.
The English couple met at a dance and married in 1940. However, Peter, a soldier, was soon sent to Egypt, the first of several postings that kept them apart.
"They spent a lot of time apart, until he retired from the army in 1960," said daughter Sylvia Brown.
The former warrant officer saw an advertisement for a motor mechanics job in Wairoa. "He met a lot of New Zealanders in the army and got to know them, and learn about, New Zealand," she said. With 20-year-old Sylvia they emigrated in 1965.
Mrs Lovell also worked in Wairoa.
"She had an arts and craft shop called Muriwai Decorative Arts in Paul St."
The couple retired about 20 years ago and moved to Napier.
Two years ago, they moved into the Napier District Masonic Retirement Trust home in Taradale, Mrs Brown said.
Despite having separate rooms, love and affection is still paramount for the 94-year-olds.

I Like You by Amy Sedaris
by Edna Lewis
Born in Freetown, Va., a community populated by descendants of slaves, Edna Lewis (who died this year at 89) was raised in a setting where culinary rituals ran deep. In this fine 30th-anniversary edition of her memoir-style cookbook, the chef, who was a hero to Alice Waters and others, writes, "The year seemed to be broken up by great events such as hog butchering, Christmas, the cutting of ice in winter, springtime with its gathering of the first green vegetables and the stock going away to summer pasture...." Each month brought new delicacies; in autumn, there were stuffed quail and apples fried in bacon fat. Along with recipes, Lewis offers glimpses of daily life in the Depression-era South. "Fall was harvest time for the squirrels as well, and there would be a race between us and the squirrels for the wild hickory nuts. They could carry the crop of a tree away in one afternoon." In every way, Lewis reminds us that the greatest blessings are the simple ones—a caramel layer cake, ham biscuits or even cookies made with hickory nuts plucked ahead of a band of squirrels.
by Yvette Christiansë
Born under apartheid, South African poet Christiansë (Castaway) dug up a horrific real-life crime in her homeland and used it as the basis for this breathtaking novel. Condemned in 1823 to a notorious African prison colony called Robben Island for the murder of her son, slave Sila van den Kaap refuses to explain her actions. Instead, in rich, lyrical prose, the captive unveils the terrible truth of her life to the spirit of her dead child. Defiant, loving and fierce, van den Kaap recalls her years in bondage and how the brutality she and her family suffered and the lies they were forced to accept—particularly one promising her freedom—eventually shattered them. Christiansë's novel isn't just a stunningly intimate, heart-wrenching history of slave life in Africa. Her protagonist's furious yearning for freedom ("Wishes are sometimes just stories that have nowhere to go") becomes a haunting meditation on love, loss and the stories we choose to tell in order to survive. Gorgeous and tragic, Unconfessed ultimately reveals a confession almost too terrible to bear—and impossible to forget.
REAL SIMPLE CELEBRATIONS Beyond pinecone turkeys: setting a gorgeous table and a festive mood, all without breaking a sweat.
SAYING GRACE edited by Sarah McElwain Chinese and Yiddish proverbs ("A table is not blessed if it has fed no scholars"), Native American chants, Islamic prayers—all lovely ways to begin the harvest feast.
Baking by Dorie Greenspan A hot-off-the-presses classic: Coauthor with Julia Child and others, Greenspan has written her own authoritative 514-page volume featuring homey goodies as well as soigné holiday desserts (French pear tarts). Perfect late night reading for cookbook addicts.
Chocolate & Vanilla by Gale Gand The executive pastry chef at Chicago's Tru offers sections for Individual Chocolate Pavlova fans and for Vanilla Charlotte lovers. Her informal style and accessible recipes make this ideal for cooking with kids.
Perfect Light Desserts by Nick Malgieri and David Joachim Acclaimed cooking teacher and author Malgieri uses butter, sugar, flour and eggs to create fab sweets under 300 calories per serving, Lemon Custard with Raspberry Sauce (below) included. Nothing fake, and the chocolate spice cookies are good enough to fool a classroom of fifth graders.
In a bold new thriller fueled by Jackie, her '69 bio, British author Eve Pollard imagines the worldly widow as a CIA agent under deep cover.
WHY DO YOU CAST THE EX-FIRST LADY AS A SPOOK? Jackie was a very courageous, adventurous woman. I think helping spy for the country would have appealed to her.
YOUR HEROINE WEDS ARI BECAUSE SHE'S A PATRIOT. EXPLAIN. Marrying Onassis was the only time Jackie got critical press. And I thought, "Wouldn't it be fun if she'd done it because the CIA asked her to?" They could've used Ari's island to watch the Russians.
WHAT'S YOUR MESSAGE? My daughter and stepdaughter are 30. To them, Jackie's just a fashion icon. But she was so much more: She had a great sense of history and fascination for what made people tick. If she'd lived longer, who knows what she might've done?
Actress (Strangers with Candy), cupcake-baker, rabbit-lover and sister to writer David, Amy Sedaris has written a wackilicious volume featuring vintage recipes, semi-useless crafts and advice on hip hostessing. Here, hints on fine-tuning a guest list:
"A barnacle is that one person in your life you can never get rid of and no one really likes.... It is not wise to invite them to a dinner for six or less. People might lose their trust in you ... and that puts your party's good reputation on the line."
Specific pairings to avoid?
• Astrologer & astronomer
• Fraternity brother & anyone else
• Psychologist & psychiatrist
• Director & out-of-work actor
• A girl, her boyfriend & his secret girlfriend
• Serial killer & drunken teenager

Our Mission:
To exceed our clients reasonable expectations, as we provide quality used cabooses, specialty railcars, and other items
Company Profile:
JFS Railcar, Inc. has been Purchasing, Selling and Leasing railroad cars & locomotives for over 21 years to a large number of satisfied corporate and non-corporate clients.

Our database is continuously updated to show the availability, physical condition, age, and other criteria on a large number of cabooses and other railcars, for clients of this site. When searching for specific equipment to meet client's specific needs/desires, we incorporate several variables into the search criteria, including car design, cost, location, and condition, to find YOU the best car for YOUR situation. We are the only seller in this market that operates our own fleet of railroad cars to move cabooses & specialty cars to our clients, when those cars cannot move on their own wheels.

Railroad Equipment sales and leasing is our ONLY business.

Often, those brokers show railroad passenger cars, cabooses and small locomotives that they do not have direct access to, nor permission from the actual owner to sell. Look closely; In many cases, Photos and Specs shown on their websites is merely copied from the websites of legitimate businesses.

With the launch of the National Information and Communication Technology (ICT) policy for Zambia, it is expected that the regulatory framework will be harmonised and contribute to national development through creation of an innovative market and responsive competitive ICT sector writes Balancing Act's Zambia correspondent Timothy Kasonde Kasolo.
Officially launching the national ICT policy for Zambia, President Levy Mwanawasa whose speech was read on his behalf by Vice President Rupiah Banda-said the ICT policy is an important step for the country to be transformed into an information and knowledge based society.
He added that there was need to harmonise the existing regulatory bodies that govern the ICT sector through the implementation of the national ICT policy.
"The challenge that remains ahead is to implement the policy through the involvement of private sector and other partners for ICT infrastructure development," Mwanawasa said. The President explained that there was need for the development of ICT incubators and ICT business innovation to accelerate local consumer use of ICTs in Zambia. "Through the launch of this national ICT policy the aim is to bridge the digital divide among Zambians," Mwanawasa explained.
The President added that the national ICT policy will improve and contribute to economic development of the country through facilitation of joint venture initiatives for local entrepreneurs working with the international private investors in the provision of ICT goods and services.
"The policy will enhance national development through the creation of a favourable business environment and promote Zambia as an attractive destination for ICT related investments within the region and on the international market," the President said.
Mwanawasa called upon stakeholders in the ICT industry to develop infrastructure in rural areas so that access to ICT services is served to many people in Zambia
And speaking earlier United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Resident Representative in Zambia, Aeneas Chuma said Zambia has advanced in the use of ICTs for development.
Chuma explained that some of the examples of ICT development in Zambia is through distance learning using the Internet and the transmission of election results using mobile phones. The UN representative added that the ICT policy is a crucial enabler of for Zambia's development.
He said that the ICT policy will help Zambia in the attainment of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) applied to education and health support in relation to ICTs.
Meanwhile Ministry of Communications and Transport (MCT) Minister, Peter Daka urged Zambia Telecommunication Company (ZAMTEL) to spearhead the development of the optic fibre in order to ease communication costs in the country.
Daka explained that ICTs should be made available even in rural areas so that the Zambian people moved at the same wave length in embracing information technology.
The ICT policy was developed through a consultative process in 2003 and was completed in 2005 by the technical committee that was appointed by the MCT. The MCT website is http://www.mct.gov.zm/
What does ICT policy cover? The ICT policy guides actions in three main areas and ensures coherence among them: Telecommunications, Broadcasting and the Internet.
The telecommunications sector includes private businesses and public sector organizations that provide telecommunications services (telephone, Internet access), produce equipment (telephones, exchanges, modems etc), define and apply the rules that govern telecommunications operations (regulation), or use telecommunications services and products (consumer groups, interest groups, educators, health professionals etc).
Broadcasting is the use of radio technologies to send transmissions (programmes: news, public services, entertainment, sports) intended for direct reception by the general public. Transmissions include radio and television. Like telecommunications, the broadcasting sector includes public enterprises such as national and community radio and television as well as private companies.
While twenty years ago most broadcasters knew their audiences and targeted their services and programmes locally or nationally, today's television and radio programming often has a regional or global reach.
The Internet is a collection of networks linked together using a common protocol - a global computer network achieved through the interconnection of smaller computer networks around the world.

Cool gear and goods for Audi owners.
Yes, you can probably time an Audi R15 TDI's (or your buddy's track day B5 S4's) lap time with the iPhone in your pocket and official lap times at events like Le Mans are not hard to monitor. Still, there's a history and romance in the round steel stop watch timing pace at a track that just rings pure in our hearts. And if it's Le Mans where you're doing the timing,
Minichamps has just released another retro Audi motorsport offering in the form of a #14 Trans Am 200 quattro as raced by Hans Stuck in Cleveland in 1988. Chalk up another must-have for the old office shelving system. More after the jump.
Full Story
Who doesn't love a cool garage makeover, so when Car & Driver posted time lapse video of the DIY Network's Garage Mahal series hosted by Bill Goldburg making over their own staff garage we clicked with interest. We weren't disappointed as we watched them install everything from car-bodied couches to cabinets and a lift. Even better, the first car that seems to grace the space is an Audi R8.
EVO Magazine has created a new Audi Guide to Le Mans app for iPhone and it would appear it's got Audi's backing based on the brand's prominent placement with ads, reviews, etc. App features latest news, driver bios, team info, and news all broken down by either Audi focused or general (so it's not just for Audi enthusiasts). Interestingly, Team Kolles and their R10 TDIs fall under 'other'. Other features include Audi road test
We'll be honest with our friends at Turn10 Studios. We've been busy. We've been busy with the day-to-day, the posting of Audi content, picking up the pieces when our forum software gets stuck in a legal quagmire or building out things like galleries for Fourtitude version 2.0 due soon. Yes, it's been a while since we even fired up the old Xbox and in that time maybe our FOURTITUDEoCOM storefront
If you're an iPad junky as we've quickly become then you have probably been yearning for a solution a bit more premium by which to package Apple's wundertablet when on the move. Yes, we broke down and bought the official iPad cover from Apple but its propensity to show dirt and stains and synthetic feel has left us wanting. In that vein we've just stumbled across this new cover from Saddleback leather. Yes, we'd prefer some
You'd think with the seemingly limitless number of television channels and stations on Satellite Radio that car enthusiasts looking for coverage of series in other markets like Europe and Japan would have no problem monitoring most races much less iconic ones like the 24 Hours of Nurburgring. Alas, Americans still can't via TV or radio but the internet and various devices using it make no such barriers and we're

This is the week Stanford setter James Shaw gets to play against two of the best setters in the country. Shaw played against USC's Micah Christenson on Thursday evening as the Cardinal won in four games. Shaw, a sophomore who starred at St. Francis-Mountain View, takes on Pepperdine's Matt West in a Mountain Pacific Sports Federation volleyball match tonight at Maples Pavilion at 5 p.m.
Shaw proved against the Trojans that he can hold his own against the best. Shaw's six aces were a career best, tying Stanford's season high.
Shaw had 42 assists, five more than Christenson. Shaw, who stands 6-foot-8, was in on five blocks, with two kills. With the score 12-12 in Game 2, Shaw executed a sly left-handed dump for a winning point as the Trojans were caught napping.
"In the second half of the season, James is doing a really nice job of distributing the ball," Stanford volleyball coach John Kosty said. "That's what we have needed with him. He's one of the best setters in the conference."
"James is a luxury at the net," Cardinal outside hitter Brian Cook said. "You can pass balls 11 feet and he'll go get them and set a nice ball. He can block well, too."
With Stanford ahead 15-14 in Game 2, play was stopped to present Shaw's father, Don, with an award of recognition from AVCA. Don Shaw is a former men's and women's volleyball head coach at Stanford, coaching the women to four NCAA titles.
"I knew he had the award, but I had no idea they were going to make him a presentation," James Shaw said. "I didn't know he was going to get recognized, so that was cool."
Right after Don Shaw was presented his award, James Shaw served a jump-serve ace. It got to the point that when Shaw took to the service line, all of Maples was focused on him.
"A few of my aces, I got lucky," Shaw said. "A few of them I caught a hold of. I've been working hard at it the whole year. This was probably my best serving week in practice."
The Trojans battled, winning Game 3 to force a Game 4.
"When you can beat a team like USC and not play that well, you gain a lot of confidence," Shaw said. "We gained a lot of confidence after this match because we know we can play a lot better than that."
Shaw was honored to play against Christenson, a setter on the U.S. National Team.
"He's one of my closest friends," said Shaw of Christenson. "I'm going to train with him and that team this summer. He's the guy I'm looking up to."
Shaw has no regrets going to Stanford, staying close to home.
"It has been a lot of fun," Shaw said. "I'm having a blast. I've grown as a person, all the way around."
Shaw feels his game has grown, as well.
"My serving has really improved," Shaw said. "I've become a more technical setter in the past year. It comes with time and experience. My decision-making needs to improve. So does working on my feet and getting quicker."
Shaw showed his versatility as a setter against the Trojans, to say nothing of his ability to cover a lot of ground. The Cardinal hitters and Shaw exhibited good timing between each other.
"We have the most talented hitters in the country," Shaw said.
And one of the best setters in the country in Shaw.
