Report of possible Legionnaires disease outbreak shuts down hotel at D/FW Airport
Update, 3 p.m.
The incident appears to be an isolated incident at the SuperMedia Hotel and Conference Center, according to a spokeswoman for Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.
"There is no impact to DFW's terminals or other public areas," she said.
SuperMedia's spokesman, Andy Shane said the hotel is currently closed while tests are being conducted. It is unclear how long the tests will take but the hotel will be closed until they are completed.
Here is SuperMedia's statement:
A guest at the hotel attached to SuperMedia's offices was treated for Legionnaires' disease and released from a nearby hospital. After the one case was initially reported to us, we took the precautionary step of asking our employees to work from alternate locations while the appropriate tests were being conducted. No other cases have been reported and we don't know that this case originated from the hotel.
Original entry: WFAA-TV reports that a hotel at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport has been shut down because of a possible outbreak of Legionnaires' disease.
Hotel management at the SuperMedia Hotel and Conference Center, in the 2200 block of West Airfield Drive, shut off the water supply as a precautionary measure, Channel 8 reports.
A guest at the hotel was diagnosed with the pneumonialike disease and was treated and released from a hospital.

Two weeks later, I couldn't swallow water. I called and set up an EGD at local hospital. After three scopes, it was found out that I had Esophageal Cancer....at 54. This insurer was denying all my claims initially saying they were under investigation for pre-existing condition.
I called them several times, and finally they started to make payments on claims. I paid my ded, and oop. Today I received a call from local hospital stating that the Insurer wants all their money back. I am totally devastated. They haven't acted in good faith since day 1. I never had symptoms until 4-2-2012.

Roger yet to drop a set
Roger booked his spot in the quarter finals of the French Open today after defeating fellow Swiss Stanislas Wawrinka 6-3, 6-2, 7-5.
"I am super-happy because I knew after he (Wawrinka) beat (Jo-Wilfried) Tsonga, when he really dominated in the last two sets, what the danger was," Roger said.
Roger easily took the first two sets against his Olympic gold doubles-partner of Beijing. Wawrinka opened the third set well as Roger suddenly found himself trailing 0-3. But our champ came back right away and finally wrapped up the match with an ace on his second match-ball. He produced 32 winners while Wawrinka had 19. It is Roger's ninth defeat of Wawrinka in ten meetings and another milestone - he broke the record for most consecutive Grand Slam quarterfinals he had previously held with Jimmy Connors (now 28).
Roger will now either face Spain's David Ferrer (ATP 7) or France's Gaël Monfils (ATP 9) for a place in the semi-finals.
C'MONNN, CHAMP! Let's hoist that 17th trophy over RN's head on Sunday!!!
People of integrity are committed to a life of excellence-seeking to be or do better,or to go beyond what is normally expected of them. Having integrity means doing the right thing even when nobody is looking and keeping your word even if it costs you something.
( Proverbs )
Standing tall amid the storms of hate,
Defying hurt and injury and ban,
Surrounded by the trembling slaves of Fate
Serene he stands, nor changes not nor turns;
Patient and firm in suffering's darkest hour,
Time bends to him, and death and doom he spurns.
And hell's deep thunders roll about his head;
Yet heeds he not, for him they cannot slay
Who stands whence earth and time and space are fled.
Armored in changeless Truth, what can he know
Of loss and gain? Knowing eternity,
He moves not whilst the shadows come and go
And splendor of prophetic majesty
Who bideth thus amid the powers of Night,
Clothed with the glory of divinity.
( James Allen Library )
Keep walking,Roger.
Whatever Future brings,stay "super-happy".:D


text: When fighting the Dynalyfos Duo in the City in the Sky, do not keep attacking them; they will block all of your attacks then hit you with an attack of their own. Take out your ball and chain and throw it at them. They will be stunned for a few seconds. Try to get in a few attacks. Repeat this strategy until they are defeated. Alternately, when you enter the room stay where you are and take out your bow and arrow. Combine it with the Hawkeye and shoot the Dynalyfos. They will fly back against the wall. Repeat this until they are defeated. Note: You should have 60 arrows. Arrows are weak against them and you are likely to run out before you kill them. Although arrows are weak against the Dynalyfos, it is better than rushing into the battle and losing a lot of HP.

I should note here that the ODE (Optimal Desktop Environment)
protocol allows for the use of any independent application
(one that isn't bound to another application with an unrelated
purpose or that it doesn't need to function properly).
So it could use NetworkManager if it's independent of KDE. It
certainly could be, but the corporate-controlled geeks at KDE
don't want people running Linux without their "help", so it
probably isn't. Many "K" apps, like Kstars, _are_ independent,
But the ODE protocol also calls for using non-X applications
whenever possible, because they use far less resources and are
generally superior; and because they will work in the console
environment _and_ the X environment.
The object here is to make Linux accessible to everyone in
the world, not just middle-class people in the "First World"
with the latest computers and hardware and high-speed connections,
who are a minority on the world stage.

Release and refund
Students should apply for release and refund separately. Please read the release guidelines, important release information and refund information before submitting your application.
What is a release application?
Standard 7 of the National Code restricts providers from enrolling students transferring from another institution prior to the student completing six months of his or her principal course of study, except in certain circumstances which will be outlined in the FAQ section of this topic. Deakin is not permitted to enrol a student who intends to transfer to Deakin and has not completed six months of their principal course at the institution from which they are transferring unless that institution has provided them with a release letter. A student is not required to get a release letter after completing six months of his or her principal course and can transfer freely.
Please refer to the release guidelines if you intend to apply for a release from Deakin.
Release appeals
A student who has been refused a release from Deakin is the right of appeal against this decision.
The initial decision whether or not to grant a release is made by the Manager, International Quality and Compliance. In cases where the release application is rejected, the student may appeal to the Executive Director, Deakin International. The student will be required to lodge the appeal in writing to Deakin International Release Appeals within 20 working days of the date of the outcome of their initial application. An appeal can only be lodged where new evidence of compassionate or compelling circumstances is provided.
Where the Executive Director, Deakin International upholds the decision to refuse permission for release, the student has the right to take his or her appeal to the Victorian Ombudsman. The Victorian Ombudsman will only make a decision to overturn the University's decision where it is clear that procedural irregularities have occurred.
Other options
Where all avenues of appeal are refused, the student has the option of returning to his or her home country. In such a situation, the University will cancel the student's CoE which means that the student is then free to make another visa application under a new provider's CoE. It is up to DIBP to decide whether or not to grant a further visa.

You will not get your service, if you do business with them. you better get cash up front. They dont even do the work the hire, addict mechanics to work on your vehicle and bill the customer x5 on the amount, and then dont pay the mechanic. Reason they are constantly looking.
Bad company. Left my vehicle in pieces and never finished the job, and took core parts and never returned them.

Rated 4 out of 5�by Jane Not so Quick Shade! Love the canopy now that it's up! For something called Quick Shade, it took two adults over an hour to assemble. August 12, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Shiloh GREAT FOR FESTIVALS... love, have two of them to use alone or doubled up for bigger events! August 12, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by KAC Like adding a room We liked ours so well we bought one for my parents. They love it too and said its like we added another room to their house. The best thing is that in our recent storms the canopies stayed put and we're not damaged. Well worth the extra cost, compared to the $50 models. July 21, 2016
Rated 2 out of 5�by Frustrated Difficult to follow instructions Instructions were very hard to follow. We couldn't get the canopy open to full size, so we returned it. July 19, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by Dmb Good for softball Provides great sun relief. Also shelters from light rain. Very difficult to set up July 19, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by Pw1948 High quality Instructions are too hard to follow and illustrations too small. No back up on u tube. We have put up a great deal of tents over the years. We are not novices. Had to resort to mechanical aides. The lower top is supposed to fit tight but no amount of maneuvering would make all the corners fit. We even had it in the sun to "warm" it up. It appears to be of high quality and want to keep it because we think it will meet our needs. The video showing the lite weight model does not give s clue on how much might it takes to put up the boss. Would buy it again, like it but not fit for ametures! July 15, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by onevw Poor design 2 experienced canopy users could not get this unit up! Very poor design The maker must have never tried to put it up. July 15, 2016
Rated 3 out of 5�by Jberr Light, portable, but doesn't seem extremely strong. Set up is easy but the legs didn't seem that strong. Haven't had in the wind so don't know how that will go. Used as a cover for fan's at an outdoor sports event. Easy to port around. Caution, make sure it fits in your car before you purchase, I have to unzip to get into my car. July 8, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by McMahon41 Not what the description says I ordered the canopy thinking that it was a 10x10 -- which it says in the description, but in fact it is a 10x17 -- so the 10x10 and the square foot not matching should have been by first clue. Ended up returning to the store because it was too big for my needs. July 7, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by Gal4grilling Hard for 1 to asemble This is a well built heavy duty sturdy canopy.But it is frustrating that they make these things and it takes two to assemble.well I have to do things alone. Assembling was challenging but I succeed to get it all up. I spray water proofing on my popups too. I like the extra shade or privacy attachment. Nice for privacy or shade. But when it rains one side canopy gets filled with water and balloons out like its pregnate. They should have put metal grommets for drainage on this item. I have put them on other canopies before.and its a hassle.For as much as we pay for this it should have the drains.Also upon putting it up. I noticed small holes from where it was folded in box on parts of canopy.. Not good. Hope these don't develop into bigger holes. But I do like the heavy construction.and you can move it up (height) and down depending on how high you want it. And you have to find a level place so each leg on the side where the extra shade it so it will attach and go up and down correctly. Otherwise it doesn't work right. After getting it up putting the extra canopy on took some figuring. Quite frustrating.the directions aren't easy to read.the diagram should be made easier to read and follow. Bigger print to. Over all it was easier to put than some popups I have had. I also like the 2 air vents on top too. July 6, 2016

VH1 more interesting? JAN 27 1999
Where the heck did VH1 come from all of a sudden? "Behind the Music" and "Where Are They Now?" are really neat shows. Is it that I'm getting older and moving from MTV's demographic to VH1's? Or is it just that VH1 is just getting more interesting while revealing what we should have known all along: that MTV is too mainstream and "hip" to be timely and relevent.
Oh well....neither one of them plays music videos anymore. Is that good or bad?
Also, while we're on the subject of MTV, they should sell their Real World and Road Rules shows to HBO or Skinemax. Instead of a bunch of people getting on each other's nerves, they could have a bunch of people just plain gettin' it on. Now that's a show.

Oneida Nation Representative commends students at Cooperstown Central School
Cooperstown students vote to end use of "Redskins" as school mascot
The Oneida Indian Nation has offered to help the Cooperstown Central School District purchase new uniforms for its sports teams, as the school considers dropping "Redskins" as the school mascot.
Students of the combined middle and high school voted this month on names to replace the Redskins nickname that goes back to the 1920s. The vote was prompted by students who found the nickname offensive to American Indians.
The Cooperstown school board is seeking input from the community before it makes a final decision.
Here is the letter from Oneida Nation Representative Ray Halbritter:
February 15, 2013
Cooperstown Middle/High School
39 Linden Avenue
Cooperstown, NY 13326
Dear Cooperstown Central Middle and High School Students:
Shekóli. Greetings of peace from the people of the Oneida Indian Nation. We wish to express our deep appreciation and respect for your courageous decision to end using the word "redskin" as the school mascot. We understand that such decisions are not always easy to make.
The idea that students would undertake such a thoughtful and compassionate action speaks well for the way Cooperstown is enlightening its youth, and speaks well for the future of your community. Your actions take an additional significance, as well, due to the proximity of your school to the institutional grounds of the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame where players from athletic teams named "Braves" and "Indians" are regularly celebrated. You have announced a standard that recognizes that mascots which are known to dehumanize and disrespect any race of mankind have no place in our schools, or our great country.
We understand that your courageous decision also comes with a financial consequence and, unfortunately, potential backlash from those who somehow claim that ethnic stereotyping is a victimless crime. We therefore wish to honor your courage and assist your transition to a new, more inclusive mascot. The Oneida Nation would like to lend its support and provide a donation to your school to help offset the necessary costs of changing mascots. We would be honored to help your athletic teams purchase new jerseys that reflect your new team name.
Additionally, we were so moved by your actions that we are now working with This Week from Indian Country Today, a weekly magazine covering Indian Country in the United States, to organize other Indian nations in creating a fund for other schools to follow Cooperstown's leadership by removing their ethnically insensitive mascots.
Two centuries ago, during the founding of this country, the Oneida people fought alongside the colonists here in New York during America's War for Independence. We were America's first allies. The spirit of what both our ancestors fought and, at times perished for, is honored by your actions and you can reflect with great pride knowing that the bond of honor and respect formed between our people centuries ago has not been lost or forgotten simply by the passage of time.
All New Yorkers can be rightly proud of the students of Cooperstown Central Middle and High School for your leadership, and for using your platform as the home of the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame to stand up for something bigger than yourselves. Thank you for seeing that racially insensitive caricatures have consequences. And thank you for being a message to the rest of the country that says we can still honor our schools and our sports teams without dishonoring our country's races, cultures and shared heritage.
N^ki' wa,
Ray Halbritter
Nation Representative

Are you planning your next vacation, but have so many questions that you don't know where to begin? We understand this and take great pleasure in ensuring your dive trip goes smoothly and lives up to all your expectations.
Whether you need to know where's a good place for beginners to dive, the languages that the divemasters speak, or if you can rent an underwater camera on your liveaboard tour, we have endeavoured to cover all the bases.
Have you already decided on your destination? Then choose one of the following dive holiday hotspots to review our frequently asked questions:
|• Australia
|• Belize
|• Burma
|• Cocos
|• Fiji
|• Galapagos
|• Indonesia
|• Malaysia
|• Maldives
|• Mexico
|• Palau
|• Red Sea (Egypt & Sudan)
|• Thailand
For the answers to your more general questions as they apply to worldwide scuba diving tours, read on...
When is the best time for a scuba diving holiday?
Each of our destinations has its own climatic and sea conditions. First, visit our dive destinations section for the location of the trips you are interested in. Then review the detailed dive site descriptions for information on the seasons for each site. Our travel information sections will give you all you need to know on the weather patterns for each destination.
How far in advance do I need to book?
You don't want to run the risk of a liveaboard tour departure being fully booked so, as there is only a limited number of beds available, you must try to book several months in advance. Resorts have more beds and are usually less likely to be booked out. However some of our dive destinations are very popular and you should always plan a few months ahead.
What diving license do I need?
This depends on your package. If you are not new to the world of scuba then a PADI Open Water Diver license is acceptable in most resorts and on most liveaboards and daytrip boats provided you have an intermediate level of diving experience. Similar licenses from any other internationally recognised scuba association are also generally acceptable.
Some liveaboard itineraries may include some deep and exposed sites, but will also feature enough easy sites for the less-experienced to enjoy. Divemasters should ensure that you will never need to dive beyond your limits. Some tours require or recommend a certain level of qualification or experience and we advise you to adhere to such recommendations.
To make the most of your scuba diving vacation and to extend your training you may wish to take your PADI Advanced Open Water Diver license during your trip. Certification is normally discounted to about half price on many liveaboards. See the "Facilities" information of each boat for course prices on board.
I don't have my license with me, can I still dive?
If you have a PADI scuba certification, we can check your details direct with PADI. Please provide your name as it appears on your card and your date of birth. If you contact PADI giving them the details of where you were certified, they can help you obtain a new card before your dive holiday begins.
Which places are good for beginner divers?
Some places, such as Phuket and Phi Phi in Thailand, and Sharm El Sheikh in the Red Sea, are great for inexperienced divers and for learning SCUBA too. Others, such as Komodo in Indonesia and parts of the Red Sea, are more suited for advanced diving. The 'Reef Basics' sections in our destinations section explains which locations are good and not-so-good for beginners and advanced divers.
We always recommend at least a 3 mm full length wetsuit, because making 3-4 dives a day, you will get chilled. It's best to review our dive site descriptions "Reef Basics" section for details on water temperatures at the destinations you are visiting.
Few places in the world can be said to be truly safe these days and we are not going to claim that Indonesia, for example, is the safest country on earth. Having said that we are not going to try to sell you a trip to Indonesia in any known trouble spots such as Aceh either. Remember we check our locations out personally and we also don't want any drama!
What we can say is that statistically you are more likely to get struck by lightening than be involved in a tourist-related act of aggression on any of our packages. You have a greater chance of being mugged at gun or knife point or run over by an SUV in the USA or Europe, than be caught up in anything untoward when on holiday with Dive The World. Once again, our tourist sections carry more detailed information on security issues for each destination.
I am single traveller. Are all destinations the same when it comes to single traveller policies?
In general terms, resorts are less likely to allow single travellers to share accommodation with other guests. In this case it will be compulsory to pay a single supplement for one person privacy. Liveaboards, being less like a hotel and with limited space, tend to view sharing a cabin as the normal practice.
Resorts in some destinations, particularly where space is limited, have a more relaxed policy. In Malaysia, Sipadan/Mabul resorts at the lower budget end allow for single travellers to choose to share a room. You can have privacy if you pay for it. Or you can take your chances and share with whoever the resort pairs you with (normally of the same sex). In the more expensive Malaysian resorts and in almost all resorts in Indonesia, Fiji and Belize, there is no option for single travellers to share. You must pay the single supplement (which varies from resort to resort). The resort will not make the 2nd bed available to other guests so the cost for the single traveller is higher.
On liveaboards, single travellers normally share a cabin with another guest. If you are a single traveller and specifically want one person privacy in your cabin (on a boat with no single cabins), there will be a single supplement to pay on top of the normal published price for 1 person. This can range from 25% to 100% of the per person price, and there is quite a variation from destination to destination. A 65% single supplement is around the international average. Indonesia tends to be less expensive for singles, Galapagos tends to be more expensive. You can often find lower single supplements in the lower budget price destinations such as the Red Sea, Burma and Thailand. Whereas high price destinations such as Cocos, often where boats cover large distances, are more expensive for single travellers who insist on a cabin to themselves.
Can you arrange accommodation for me for a stop-over or in addition to my liveaboard trip?
We've teamed up with an affiliated hotel reservation agents, Agoda.com. They offer a wide range of vacation accommodations worldwide. Browse the choices on their website, use their live chat to ask your questions, then simply use your credit card to make your hotel reservation.
From top-of-the range international beach resorts to one-star inns and guesthouses, there's something to suit everyone's taste and requirements. And you can be certain that whatever option you select, it will be backed up with their 'Low Price Guarantee', so you will always get top-dollar value for money.
What languages do the divemasters speak?
English is the main language of communication on all our scuba diving trips. However, most of our dive operators have guides that can speak a variety of other languages. For details on which languages each resort and liveaboard covers, please refer to the national flags on each product information display.
Can I request vegetarian food?
Please review the "Food" section for details of different dietary requirements that can be met on each liveaboard dive tour or resort stay. Please tell us your requirements at the time when you book your holidays with us, so that we can meet your request.
Where's the best place to see mandarinfish?
Actually, you can find mandarinfish quite easily in the Lembeh Strait in Indonesia, or otherwise maybe try Mabul in Malaysia.
Our 'Creature Feature' section highlights some of the more popular marine life you can find at our scuba holiday destinations, and where best to find them. If your favourite is not listed, then: send us an email and we'll try to run a feature in the near future.
Is there anything to do on your vacations for a non-diver?
Some of our destinations are remote islands with undeveloped infrastructure and they offer very little except superb diving and snorkelling. If you are travelling with a non-diver or you'd like to break up your trip with some other fun activities for yourself, we can make some holiday recommendations for you.
Sabah in Malaysian Borneo has a lot more to do than diving and it is worth extending your time as much as possible to add some of these wonderful experiences to your scuba trip. Orangutans, proboscis monkeys, snakes, elephants, macaques, crocodiles, hornbills and many more beautiful species of wildlife can be seen in the interior of Sabah. Mountains, jungles, white water rafting, trekking, nature in every hue as well as beaches, watersports, golf, mountain-biking ... there's so much to see and do on vacation here ...
Krabi in Thailand has simply stunning scenery and countless adventure options, minus the crowds of the more popular and nearby Phuket and Phi Phi Islands. Probably the most beautiful location in the whole of the country, Krabi manages to combine it's glorious natural wonders with the service and warm smiles that you've come to expect from holidays in Thailand. You can dive the local area, Koh Phi Phi and some of the sites in Phuket, or take a ride up the coast to visit Thailand's No.1 scuba destination, the Similan Islands.
Bali in Indonesia remains the most popular tourist destination in the whole of South East Asia. A dramatic mountainous interior and exquisite rice terraces provide jaw-dropping vistas. Then the blend of Balinese dance, culture, artwork and architecture give the island it's unique fascination. Perhaps that's why many visitors don't seem to realise that the scuba diving is excellent here too.
Australia, unsurprisingly given its size, has a wealth of tourism opportunities. If you are lucky enough to be diving on the Great Barrier Reef, you will need plenty of extra time to see sights beyond the Cairns area such as Ayer's Rock, the Whitsundays or Fraser island. There are "heaps" of nearby beaches plus white water rafting, 4 wheel drive safaris, trekking and even an adrenaline charged skydive!
The Red Sea is best accessed from Egypt, a land synonymous with cultural and historical fascination. If you are planning a sightseeing and diving holiday then your time will need to be split between places like Luxor and Giza where the pyramids and the Sphinx are to be found, and the coastal area where the desert meets the mighty Red Sea.
Fiji is one of the best vacation destinations in terms of pleasing both diver and non-diver alike. Taveuni and Kadavu both offer a wealth of natural interest with waterfalls, treks and isolated bays perfect for exploration by sea kayak. If staying in Viti Levu you can visit the markets and activities of the towns and no matter where you are there is always a little village nearby welcoming you to join them in a cultural kava drinking session.
Galapagos is a destination as famous for its birds and land animals as it is for the extraordinary underwater life. While the liveaboard cruises to more distant islands of Wolf and Darwin may not be the best place for a non-diver, land lovers can spend several days learning about the flora and fauna of the islands and of their place in Charles Darwin's legendary work. The Galapagos is an enthralling destination for all nature lovers, whether they spend their time at 25m below the surface or investigating the highlands and shores of this fascinating volcanic archipelago.
Cocos Island is not a place for non-divers. Practically the only time anyone leaves the liveaboard boat is to dive. The Costa Rican mainland however, has an incredible variety of activities for the intrepid nature lover. You can tour volcanoes, trek into the highlands above San Jose, fly through jungle canopies on a lightning-fast zip line, or discover creatures in their natural rainforest habitat. Costa Rica also has a fascinating culture and history with interesting arts and crafts and delicious cuisine.
Belize has so much more to offer than diving. A trek into the lush rainforests should be on anybody's 'to do' list. Ancient Mayan ruins, some still being excavated, are dotted all over Belize. Ambergris Caye with its stunning beaches, lively nightlife, water sport activities, and lots of walking trails to observe the abundant flora and fauna, also has plenty to keep the non-diver occupied.
In Mexico, considering its suitability for non-divers depends where you are. Pacific coast liveaboards are not much fun for non-divers unless you are the type who likes to get into a great white shark cage. Seaside towns like Cabo San Lucas on the Baja Peninsula and Caribbean resort towns like Cozumel and Cancun have plenty of beach-dominated activities. All manner of watersports are complimented by bustling Mexican markets selling every piece of tourist memorabilia imaginable, Mayan ruins, beautiful golf courses, horse riding and some hardcore partying venues.
Liveaboards provide scuba facilities and living accommodations for divers. The boat becomes your home and you eat, sleep and dive on it! Liveaboards stay at sea for the duration of the tour and therefore can explore more remote sites. This type of diving opens up a whole new world of top class scuba holidays that would simply not be available on regular daytrip boats.
How many dives will I make each day?
Generally you can make 4 per day. A typical cruise day starts at 07:00 hrs with the first dive, and the last being either a sunset or night dive. You have about 3 hours between dives, at your leisure.
Can I recharge my strobes and batteries on the boat?
Usually this is not a problem onboard liveaboard charters. Please review the boats' "Specs" section for details of the power sources provided on each of the trips.
What type of scuba tanks and valves are on the boats?
Please see the "Specs" section of each boat for more details as specifics vary between different cruises.
Can I rent an underwater camera on the boat?
Some liveaboards have cameras available for rent. See the "Facilities" section of each boat for more details. Please request these in advance to ensure availability.
Where can you pick me up from for my boat transfer?
We'll send you transfer details during the booking process so that you'll know where you need to get to well in advance of your cruise.
What should I bring on board for my diving tour?
All your personal scuba gear (except tanks, weights and weight belts), a bathing suit, towel, toiletries, T-shirts, shorts, and sun cream. You may also want to bring something a little warmer for the evenings.
Is dive insurance for customers included in the cruise price?
Some scuba charters provide insurance, others insist that you have your own. For details please review the "Safety" section for each boat. In any case, we recommend you have your own personal dive insurance for your own peace of mind:
Can a non-diver go on a liveaboard safari?
Non-divers and snorkellers are welcome on all liveaboards. Do bear in mind though that most of these cruises are designed primarily for diving, not snorkelling. Prices for non-divers are usually discounted 10%, sometimes more, but please ask for exact details.
Space is the ultimate premium on liveaboards and single cabins are extremely rare and expensive. Unless we manage to book you a single cabin, you will be expected to share. It may be, if the trip is not fully booked and there are an odd number of passengers, that you can have your own cabin, but this situation cannot be guaranteed. The only way to guarantee a cabin for yourself is to pay for 2 beds! Please review the "Cabins" section of each boat for more details on the types of cabin available.
Are your boat products listed in order of quality?
No, they are listed in order of price category. We like to provide a selection of products in a range of prices. We select what products we sell in any destination once we have assessed them and we are confident that they can provide a good service. Then we analyse the prices including the additional costs of the dive trips, such as marine park fees, taxes and other fees that the standard customer will have to pay. We work out what the daily price is for each package and we use this to determine whether products appear in our High, Medium or Low budget options. These categories are divisions in price among the products we sell in that location. They are not meant as a description of quality. Each product carries a Customer Star Rating which is a measure of our customers' satisfaction with each product.
I have a question that is not answered here – what can I do?
Ask us. We have a team of experienced divers on hand to deal with all your queries. So if there is something on your mind or you need clarification on any issue then simply contact us. We will be delighted to help make the booking process easy for you and see to it that you have a great time on your next scuba diving holiday.

How To Store Your Makeup To Keep It Fresh
Unfortunately, the ingredients used to make most makeup products don't have an unlimited shelf-life. Yes, like the milk in your fridge, makeup has a freshness date. It isn't always easy to discover what it is, but knowing when it's time to pitch your makeup is an important part of good makeup maintenance. The law doesn't require makeup manufacturers to list expiration dates on their products, but most have batch codes that provide manufacturers with that information.
Since you can't decipher the code yourself, and the manufacturer probably won't tell you unless there's a recall of some sort, your best recourse for making sure you're using "fresh" makeup is to write down the date you bought it. You can write it right on the tube or jar, or keep the information on a spreadsheet or on a sheet of paper. Sure, the product may have been sitting on the retailer's shelve for a while, but this is still your best strategy for rotating out "old" makeup. These freshness guidelines apply to specific types of cosmetics:
- Cream eye shadow - 12 to 18 months
- Eye shadow powder - two years
- Eyeliner - 3 months
- Face Powder - two years
- Lip liner - one year
- Lipstick - one year
- Liquid foundation - one year
- Makeup brushes - Wash in warm, soapy water once a week
- Mascara - 3 months
- Sponges - Wash or replace weekly
Once the freshness date range has elapsed (based on your handy date of purchase reminder), pitch the product. You'll notice that products that come in close contact with your eye area have the shortest useful life. That's because experts believe they're the most likely to cause infections when they get old or dirty.
Keeping Cosmetics Clean
Using makeup that's beginning to deteriorate can cause infections and allergies like dermatitis. The same goes for using makeup that's dirty or bacteria laden. To help keep contamination to a minimum, always wash your hands before using makeup. It's also a good idea to wash or replace applicators like brushes, sponge wands, sponges and puffs every week or so. As an added precaution, consider storing your makeup in the fridge. It will last longer that way, and the cold will limit the growth of bacteria. Oh, and avoid using those "tester" cosmetics in the department store. They're often contaminated with germs from previous users.
Moisture Damage To Makeup
Moisture is the enemy of makeup. It encourages bacterial growth and can react in unexpected ways with the chemicals in cosmetics. By moisture we mean more than a wayward drop of water. The steam from your shower or sink is enough to cause problems. Here are some tips that will help you protect your cosmetics from moisture contamination:
- Close cosmetic organizers after every use.
- Avoid using cosmetics when your hands are wet.
- Store cosmetics in a dry (and preferably dark) location.
- If you apply your makeup in the bathroom after a shower, be sure to run the bathroom fan to vent steam as quickly as possible.
Keep Makeup Cool
The best place to store your makeup is in a cool, dry spot away from sunlight. Heat, moisture and light can all shorten the life of your cosmetics by changing their consistency or altering their tints. The problem is that many cosmetic preparations are chemically fragile. We've recommended you keep makeup in the fridge, but even if you pass on this chilly approach, keep your makeup case away from hot lights, hot water pipes, and sunlight.
A Place For Everything
You makeup will only be effective if you can locate it when you need it. If you spend a lot of time trying to find your eye shadow or concealer in a jumble of tubes, compacts, bottles and brushes, you need a system. Cosmetics are often sold in relatively small containers that look pretty darned similar. The fact that they're small can be good news, though. It means you can corral them in a cosmetics organizer. We really like the idea of using office supply organizers to store cosmetics. Like cosmetics, many office supplies (like markers, pens and erasers) are small -- and round, too.
Even better, office desk organizers come in all shapes and sizes, from free standing multi-shelf desktop organizers to drawer organizers. They're also often less expensive than makeup specific carryalls and organizers. Another option is a craft organizer. Scrapbooking is such a big hobby these days, with lots of little doodads used as embellishments, that there are quite a few organizers around that will do double duty. They often have hinged lids, too. This makes it easier to transport craft items -- or makeup items.
Here are some storage tips you should keep in mind:
- Take an inventory of what you want to stow before you shop for an organizer or other storage system. That chubby mascara wand or eyelash curler may be a difficult fit for a standard organizer slot.
- Prefer organizers with lids. They will help keep light and moisture out. They'll also make transporting cosmetics easier.
- Make arrangements to store brushes upright. A good set of makeup brushes can be expensive. Protect your investment by storing them with the handles down and the bristles up. This may require a special countertop holder, or simply a decorative cup or glass.

What an amazing discovery these can organizers are!! The pantry size would be awesome.
I'm drooling over the thought of my pantry being more organized!!! Any of the sizes would fit in my pantry 🙂

Wide Organizer 4 Pack 11 or larger
I just found you and love your tips and recipes. I would love to win the pantry size can organizer. I have been trying to get organized for awhile now. This would really help. I can't tell you how many times I have bought an item only too find I already had it. I blame it on menopause. Grrrr. Thanks for a great blog site. I definately will be back.
I could certainly use some organizational help! The shelf organizer size would work great in my pantry! Looks like a super product.
I could use the Pantry Organizer 4 pack for my canned goods.
My pantry is somewhat organized, although I have too much stuff. As I work to overcome my tendency to "stock up" on various food items, I know that something like this Can Organizer would help a lot. And the size that would work the best in my pantry is the 16″ Shelf Organizer size. Thanks so much!
Would love the 16 inch pantry organizer.
I try to be very organized and keep my pantry stocked and cook ready (because you NEVER know when Paula Deen , Guy Feiri, Alton Brown, Anne Burrell, Ted Allen or Aarron Sanchez is going to knock on your door.). I am gong to have to place an order soon for some of each size but would love to win the wide 16 inch organizers. Would love to share pictures when I do.
What an inspiring website to motivate me to get organized. Great idea.
Love the shelf or the cupboard organizers for my small kitchen.
I would love the 11″ organizers! We are completely re-doing our kitchen from a water pipe mishap (instead of Disney this year) and could use all the help and ideas we could get!
The 11 inch organizers would be perfect for my pantry-less kitchen. No matter how much I organize, my kitchen cabinets always get to be a mess again. (((sigh)))
i don't have an organized pantry and i'd like the sixteen inch
I would love the shelf size! My pantry is semi-organized but these would sure help make it really organized!
I would like the Shelf Organizer size!
I spent some time organizing my pantry earlier this year but would love these for can storage. The 16 inch would work well in my pantry.
My pantry is not very organized at all. I have been looking at different can organizer systems and this one looks great. So thankful you posted about it. Because the shelves in my pantry aren't very deep (just 12″), I would go with the cupboard organizer for my pantry. Fingers crossed that I win. And if I don't, I'll be using that discount code. Thanks! ☺
I would love the 16″ size! I try to keep organized…these would really help!
My pantry is NOT organized, but I wish it was! I'd love the 16″ organizer~ 🙂
Always wanted these…. We move into our new house (complete with my new walk in pantry in a few weeks. I'm think the 11″ organizers would get us started off on the right foot!
This looks like a great way to organize all of my "stockpile" of foods. I really hate it when the stacked cans in my cupboard fall and land on my toes! Ouch! My pantry gets reorganized every few months and then turns into disorganized chaos in a matter of days! Grrrr! So instead of ousting the family and sending them off the island, this organizational method may be the answer!
I would love to win the 16″ shelf organizers! Thanks!
I think the 16″ would be great for my pantry. Thanks for the chance at one!
11′ cupboard organizer
My pantry is small and has deep shelves. I'd love to win. I like the pantry organizer 4 pack.
I would love some of the Shelf size.
Since I moved to the US I had to learn to buy in bulk in order to save time & money,
I have been trying to have my pantry organized but ended up with stack of things hard to
keep track of expiration dates!! I have searched the website to learn how to organize
This product is very nice for someone not much handy ,I would love some of the Shelf size.
Thank you for the ideas.
I would love to win the pantry size organizer. It would be perfect!
I live in a small condo with my husband and daughter and organization is key. Unfortunately, it is necessarily my forte. I would love the cupboards organizer

Beautiful! Love the hairdo <3
this is gorgeous!
I really like such whispy character styling; her mix of pixie, summer exuberance (both in cami-like outfit design & lush emeralds of her colour scheme) & a dash of sophisticated hint in her expression help take this beyond simple sweetness and into more ethereal realms. Esp. her hairstyle, the round patterns on her cami top's trim and unique usage of colours also recall your main heroine Leda ([link] , [link]) which I have a soft spot for.
Waaah, you remind me that I didn't draw Leda so much time -_- I should do new picture with her
Awww more artwork of Leda would be be SO awesome! Don't worry about it though and take your own time...
WOW.... This one is so beautiful I can't even think of any words to say!!! The colors and the gold accents are spectacular, Kimir!! This is one of my favorite of your commissioned pieces now!
Wow!! It's absolutely beautiful!!!
This just made my day

The Art of Saying Nothing: Tencent on Alibaba
While Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group prepares for a massive initial public offering in the U.S., its archrival in China's Internet sector, Tencent Holdings, is sharing the spotlight.
At Tencent's news conference this week, the company's top executives ended up fielding more questions about Alibaba than they probably wanted: How does Tencent feel about Alibaba's IPO getting all the investor attention? Does Tencent, a giant in online gaming and social networks in China, feel threatened by competition from Alibaba?
Tencent President Martin Lau gave the most noncommittal, diplomatic answers imaginable: "The Internet, by nature, is not about competition." Mr. Lau said at the conference. "It's about whether and how much value users can get from the Internet."
The conference at Hong Kong's Conrad hotel, where Tencent announced its latest financial results, came just three days after Alibaba announced its decision to seek an IPO in the U.S.
Tencent and Alibaba, two of China's largest, most resourceful Internet firms, are fighting an intensifying battle over China's over 600 million Internet users as more of them access the Web through smartphones rather than personal computers. Tencent's strongest weapon is its WeChat mobile messaging app, which has 355 million monthly active users. The company hopes to turn WeChat into a major source of revenue by offering mobile games, e-commerce and other services to the app's users. It also recently agreed to buy a 15% stake in JD.com Inc., China's second-largest e-commerce company, to boost its e-commerce operations . Meanwhile, Alibaba, whose Taobao and Tmall marketplaces dominate China's online shopping market, has also been on an acquisition spree to strengthen its services targeting smartphone users.
Still, Mr. Lau carefully avoided direct references to Alibaba while answering questions about Alibaba. "We are not locked in vicious competition," said Mr. Lau at the conference. "Our principle is how to better collaborate with other players in the industry."
Another reporter asked whether Alibaba's massive stock market debut could distract investors from Tencent's stock, which over the past year has been viewed by many market analysts as one of the hottest Chinese tech stocks. This time, Chief Executive Pony Ma provided yet another harmless answer.
"The more players we have, the merrier," said Mr. Ma. "That's good for the industry."

This is a veyr good product its got loads of great features like cable managment and revolving sockets for big plugs.
There are plenty more features but what you need to consider is whether its work 20 quid? well if you have expensive equipment it probably is what would you rather £2000 of damaged quipment or a £20 serge protector. Its a good product just abit pricy

Arizona State Sun Devils
Vontaze Burfict is making the most of his opportunity with the Cincinnati Bengals
In 2011, junior Vontaze Burfict's time in an ASU uniform couldn't end soon enough.
During his final season in Tempe, the tempestuous linebacker was expected to anchor the Sun Devils defense, but instead the native of Corona, Calif. made far more headlines off the field than on it.
Burfict finished his junior campaign with 69 total tackles, seven tackles for a loss and five sacks, but heading into the 2012 NFL Draft he was labeled as a locker room cancer because of numerous run-ins he had with former teammates and coaches.
While there was no denying Burfict had first-round talent on the field, his work ethic (ran a rather slow 4.93 and 5.10 40-yard dash at the Combine), questionable passion for the game (failed a pre-draft drug test) and volatile nature scared every general manager in the league last April, as the 2010 Sporting News All-American went undrafted.
Although character concerns kept the linebacker from hearing his name called by Roger Goodell, owner Mike Brown and head coach Marvin Lewis of the Cincinnati Bengals took a flyer on the mercurial linebacker and signed him less than a week after the draft.
All Burfict has done since is prove his doubters wrong, while rewarding the Bengals' faith in his on-field abilities.
Most importantly, he's been a model teammate in Cincinnati.
In 16 regular season games, Burfict ranked third among rookies in tackles (129). The two players in front of him, Luke Kuechly (Panthers) and Bobby Wagner (Seahawks), were each taken in the first two rounds of the draft.
As John McTigue of ESPN Stats & Information noted Thursday, Burfict's impact on the Bengals defense has been unmatched in 2012. The former ASU star led Cincinnati in tackles during his rookie season, despite playing in 134 less snaps then fellow linebacker Rey Mauluga.
In addition, Burfict led the Bengals in tackles for a loss (7.5) and recorded the second-most single-game tackles (18 in Week 17 against the Baltimore Ravens) by any player in the league this season.
Burfict's presence on field made a notable difference for the Bengals this season. When Burfict was on field, the Bengals defense allowed 2.4 yards fewer per play compared to when he was off the field.
How big of an impact was that? There were 230 players this season who were on field for at least 500 plays and off the field for 100-or-more plays. In that sample, no player's team took a bigger hit when going off field than the Bengals did with Burfict.
For his efforts, Burfict has started every game since Week 3, and will have a chance to add to that streak Saturday when the Bengals travel to Houston in a rematch of last year's AFC Wild Card contest.

Nicotine is the addictive drug in tobacco smoke that causes smokers to continue to smoke. Addicted smokers need enough nicotine over a day to 'feel normal' – to satisfy cravings or control their mood. How much nicotine a smoker needs determines how much smoke they are likely to inhale, no matter what type of cigarette they smoke.
Along with nicotine, smokers inhale about 7,000 other chemicals in cigarette smoke. Many of these chemicals come from burning tobacco leaf. Some of these compounds are chemically active and trigger profound and damaging changes in the body.
Tobacco smoke contains over 60 known cancer-causing chemicals. Smoking harms nearly every organ in the body, causing many diseases and reducing health in general.
The most damaging components of tobacco smoke are:
The effects of tobacco smoke on the respiratory system include:
The effects of tobacco smoke on the immune system include:
The effects of tobacco smoke on the musculoskeletal system include:
The effects of tobacco smoke on the male body include an increased risk for:
The effects of tobacco smoke on the female body include:
Other effects of tobacco smoke on the body include:
The effects of maternal smoking on an unborn baby include:
If a parent continues to smoke during their baby's first year of life, the child has an increased risk of ear infections, respiratory illnesses such as pneumonia and bronchitis, sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and meningococcal disease.
A lifetime smoker is at high risk of developing a range of potentially lethal diseases, including:

Today the Marketplace Fairness Act of 2013 was introduced into Congress. This bill, when passed, will essentially reverse the Affiliate Nexus Tax laws that have passed in 9 states and devastated the incomes of 76,000 affiliate marketers. This current version of the bill is essentially the same as last year's bill, which had bi-partisan support and likely enough votes to pass, if it hadn't taken a back seat to the dramatic 'fiscal cliff' politics that absorbed Congress' attention.
We have high hopes this bill will pass in 2013!
Many thanks to the bill sponsors and supporters, Senators Dick Durbin of Illinois (and winner of this year's Affiliate Summit Industry Advocate of the Year award), Mike Enzi of Wyoming and Lamar Alexander of Tennesseee, and Representatives Steve Womack of Arkansas and Jackie Speier of California.
