Alexander the Corrector
The Man Who Unwrote the Bible. In the mid-1720s, Alexander Cruden took on a self-imposed task of Herculean proportions: he decided to compile the most thorough concordance of the King James Version of the Bible (777,746 words). The first edition of Cruden's Concordance was published in 1737. Every similar undertaking before or since has been the work of a vast team of people. Cruden worked alone in his lodgings, writing the whole thing out by hand. Cruden's day job was as a "Corrector of the Press" (proofreader). He would give hawk-eyed attention to prose all day long. Then he would come home at night to read the Bible—stopping at every single word to secure the right sheet from the tens of thousands of pieces of paper all around him and to record accurately the reference in its appropriate place. He had no patron, no publisher, no financial backers: his only commission was a divine one. Cruden's Concordance has never been out of print. A new book tells the tale of Alexander the Corrector's bizarre, sad life (scroll down to about half page).

RTI query on mercy petitions turned down
As reported in ibnilive.in.com on 28 August 2011:
RTI query on mercy petitions turned down
CHENNAI: The Ministry of Home Affairs has turned down an RTI application from K Mayilsamy, a Supreme Court advocate, seeking information about mercy petitions and other documents filed by various individuals and groups for Perarivalan, Santhan and Murugan.
Mayilsamy sought the information under Section 7(1) of the Act.
The advocate had gone to the Ministry to collect the details on Friday, but was not able to get through. He said that officials told him that the information could not be claimed as already the mercy petitions of the trio had been dismissed by the President.
Officials told me that constitutional rights to the trio have been exhausted, he said. The applicant asked for the information to support the petition to be filed on Monday in the Madras High Court.

Re: RTI query on mercy petitions turned down
Attached is an interesting and well argued order from the CIC relating to information sought about mercy petitions of the trio accused in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination.
The CIC ruled:
(i) Mercy Petitions:
He shall provide the copies of the Mercy petitions not only by the
three persons themselves but by others on their behalf which have
been taken into consideration from time to time.
(ii) File notings:
He shall disclose the copies of the file notings not forming part of
the ministerial advice to the President of India after severing all the
names and other references regarding the identities of the public
servants regarding those file notings and making those
(iii) Correspondence:
He shall also disclose the copies of the correspondence made from
time to time in connection with the mercy petitions except those,
which in his opinion should not be disclosed being exempt in terms
of Section 8(1)(a) of the RTI Act. If he decides to withhold some of
the correspondence, he shall pass a speaking order. Needless to say,
the Complainant will be free to approach the Appellate Authority if
he is not satisfied with the decision of the CPIO.
Interesting to note that as per the copy uploaded on CIC website, the order has been authenticated by Additional Registrar (Law). Normally orders of CIC S. Mishra are authenticated by the Designated Officer and Asst. Registrar Mr Vijay Bhalla. Wonder why ?

Re: RTI query on mercy petitions turned down
As reported by M. Gunasekaran in deccanchronicle.com on 04 September 2011:
Rajiv Gandhi convicts: Reveal Preident's notings on mercy plea, CIC tells HM
The Central Information Commission has directed the Union home ministry to provide copies of file notings and correspondence on the mercy pleas of Rajiv Gandhi assassins Murugan, Santhan and Perarivalan who have been awarded a death sentence.
Treating the petition of the Delhi human rights activist and Supreme Court lawyer K. Mayilsa-my as a fit case concerning life and liberty, Chief Information Commissioner Satyananda Mishra directed the ministry to provide the relevant information within seven working days.
The Presidents office had transferred Mr Mayilsamy request for information on the rejection of the mercy pleas to the home ministry, which, however, refused to give it, claiming exemption from the provisions of the Right to Information Act.
Pulling up the ministry for its refusal, Mr Mishra directed it to disclose the file notings and the correspondence, however, allowing it to remove names and references to public servants considering the sensitivity of the case.
Needless to say, the complainant will be free to approach the appellate authority if he is not satisfied with the CPIOs decision, the order said.
Speaking to DC, Mr Mayilsamy said it was the fundamental right of the three prisoners, who are facing the gallows, to know why their mercy pleas were rejected.
Since it took 11 long years for the President to reject their plea, it is crucial to see whether there was any unreasonable delay in the matter, he said.
Since the correspondence made does not form part of the ministerial advice to the President, it could be disclosed, Mr Mishra said.

i moved 300 miles north,bought another house....
so,i had my auto's serviced for 10 years at a garage,in cape coral,fl...tropical auto... owner named RON...so i had him tow these two cars,over to his garage,10 miles away....i asked him to see what they would need,to get them in road condition...give me an estimate of how much it would cost to fix them....oh,the tow bill was $40..each vehicle...
so, each week i called him,he was too busy to take a look at them,then 4 months passed,i called,he said he had a buyer for one of the vehicles,a van...for $400..i said ok..sell it and take your $80 out and send me the rest...he said oh send me the titles..i said ok..sent them,,big mistake...so now he has my vehicles,and the titles...a few weeks i call back,and he says oh the guy doesn't have the $4 yet,,so i waited,that never happened and i doubt that there ever was a buyer..
so,next time i call he says that he has fixed the brakes on the van $600...so now i owe him $700....i said what? u did not give me an estimate!..u could have called and said ,look kyle ,this is going to cost u $600 to fix the brakes,do u want me to do it? i would have said no.so he took that option away from me,why? because he knows the repair job ismore than the van is worth....
so he gets both my vehicles if i don't pay this ridiculos amount,that i did not authorise ,and never was given an estimate...so, he then sells both cars ,and keeps the $$..pretty slick!...i hear from a friend that this is an old mechanic, auto repair trick!..its is auto RAPE!....can u help me, thanks kyle

people in the court room.
This judge did not acknowledge me while I was giving my testimony and did not even look at me while I spoke. When the Animal Control guy spoke, the judge was all up in it. It was apparent that this judge made his decision BEFORE court even began. Animal Control called his witness who contradicted the testimony that Animal Control gave. Since I
was the defendant, the burden of proof was on Kadell, the Animal Control. He didn't remotely prove his case, his witness contradicted him on two key areas, and, he actually lied about a few things. When I proved he'd lied, the judge ignored it. My problem with this judge is not that I 'lost' the case. It is how he handled the case. Because of the outlandish and obvious injustice, I am appealing his ruling. He told me before I could leave the court room I had to sign a "agreement
to pay" form. I told him "I'm appealing this decision'. He responded with 'but I ruled against you'. Yes, and I believe he is wrong. He forced me to sign the form anyway so beside my signature I wrote 'pending appeal".
How has this judge been in his position this long? It's a paradox.
It's clear he is out to make money for the county and not for an unbiased trial. Let it be known that there was a google search that confirms there was action taken against this judge in 2004 because he wasnt following all the guidelines for everyone in the same manner very judgemental of people he didnt like. The links are defunct now because of their age. I intend to contact the Bar Association about any complaints lodged against this Judge.

"Kick-Ass" star Aaron Johnson is set to star in the upcoming superhero film "Avengers: Age of Ultron".
Johnson will play Quicksilver, the son of Magneto, in the upcoming movie.
This will reunite him with his "Godzilla" co-star, Elizabeth Olsen, who is expected to take on the role of the Scarlet Witch, the twin sister of Quicksilver, reported Ace Showbiz.
Earlier this year when he confirmed auditioning for the role, he had said, "There's years - over 50 years - of backstory on him all there to use, and I like doing that."
"Him and his sister have been abandoned by their parents and their father, and they grew up in Eastern Europe defending and looking out for themselves and each other.
"His sister really is his guidance - emotionally she's the one who looks after him, and vice versa. He's very overprotective physically - he doesn't want anyone touching her."
The second installment of "The Avengers" series will hit theatres on May 1, 2015 in the US. Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson and Jeremy Renner will reprise their respective roles.
James Spader is tapped to play the villain. Aaron Johnson to play Quicksilver in 'Avengers' sequel

I'm just not that "Psyched" about Next.
I'm trying my hardest to get psyched about D&D Next but for some reason I'm just not feeling it. I've done the playtest and everything but I'm just losing the excitement day by day. I've actually been occupying most of my time Pathfinder.
I don't know what it is but I'm just not digging Next.
Anyone else feel the same?

I am not digging at this point either. 3e is my favorite edition, but there are elements from 2e and 4e I would love to see replace some of 3e's mechanics so my ideal would incorporate elements from all 3. However, Next despite drawing influence from various editions is not doing so in a way that I like.
So far. the only things that I like about Next are Backgrounds and, for the most part, the skill list (I despised 4e's shorter list of broader skills). It is still early in development. Therefore, I have keeping up with it in hope that things will change. Lately, though I have to admit that I am losing interest, but this is due, in large part, to many posters at WOTC's boards and rpg.net.

Yeah, it's very early in the process. Once they get the core game set and start adding some more bells and whistles, I'm guessing many who might not yet be excited will start giving it a more serious look.

Some of it is that we simply don't have that much to go on yet. What will 5e really look like when it's done? Who knows. The Pathfinder beta play test was significantly different from the final PF core rules, for example, and 5e still has significant time until its official release.
The other thing I have to keep asking myself is, what is 5e going to supplant in my group's existing play set? We already have one GM running GURPS, I'm running Savage Worlds on the side as a diversion on our GURPS "off weeks"; we have a Pathfinder campaign on hiatus that I ran last year; I'm dying to get a full-blown Fantasy Craft campaign rolling.....
And no offence to WotC, but any brand loyalty I might have felt for the D&D name is looooooong gone out the 4e window.
Unless I'm 100% convinced that D&D Next is going to blow my existing options out of the water, why would our group change up what we're already doing?
So far, 5e looks like just another interesting d20 fantasy variant......and I've already got like, six of those.

My mind changes regularly! I still personally prefer the 4th ed approach of tactical and mechanic heavy design but I like the way they are approaching things by attempting to go for multiple playstyles and a lot of playtesting in DDN. I think the next iteration of DDN in October is going to be important for keeping people interested in DDN.

Initially, their goals seemed worthy, but they haven't shown any real innovation and with every new playtest release and column I see they seem to be getting farther away from accomplishing those goals. So yes, I agree. Around the new year, I thought maybe this would be a step forward, but at this point I'm focusing more on my home game and trying to make that the best I can.

Color me somewhat unsurprised by the reactions.
Speaking only for myself, I'm interested in what they're doing, but, it's WAYYY too early to get all squee about things. Have to admit though, lots of fodder for discussion.

A Body Blow to the Economy
By DAVID LEONHARDT and LOUIS UCHITELLE
Published: September 16, 2001
THE attacks that destroyed the World Trade Center towers and damaged the Pentagon brought the American economy to an unprecedented halt and made a recession far more likely than before.
Six days ago, the economy seemed to be at best stagnant. Now, as a result of last week alone, many experts believe that it is already contracting, perhaps by as much as an annual rate of 1 percent.
The immense loss of output -- from airline travel, Wall Street brokerage fees and retail sales -- will reduce corporate profits that were shrinking rapidly. That, in turn, could lead to a fresh surge in layoffs, economists said. Even as Wall Street prepares to reopen, the terrorist attacks and the possibility of reprisals are likely to aggravate the unwinding of consumer confidence that was already under way.
In hopes of preventing the situation from worsening, the Bush administration and Congress suspended all talk about preserving the Social Security surplus and quickly enacted a $40 billion spending bill -- half for battling terrorists, half for helping their victims. More will come later, policy makers said. The Federal Reserve is also prepared to cut interest rates again.
The government's goal, like that of those rushing to open the stock market, is to restore a semblance of normalcy and keep a staggering economy from turning into something much worse.
What makes it hard to gauge the effect of the attack is a lack of precedent. ''We can only speculate, because we've never seen anything like this before,'' said Carl B. Weinberg, the chief economist at High Frequency Economics, a consulting firm in Valhalla, N.Y.
Still, individual events, even enormously tragic ones, usually have only a temporary effect on major economies. Economists do not question whether the American economy will recover from last week's attacks. The disagreement is over how quickly and strongly it will rebound.
''People like ourselves often tend to exaggerate the economic effects'' of individual events, said John Walker, chief economist at Oxford Economics, a consulting firm in the British city for which it is named.
IT would be hard, however, to exaggerate what happened last week. For a while, American business was paralyzed as never before. People simply stopped working.
The executives of Dannon, the food company, who had flown to Florida for their annual conference, cut short their sales meeting and chartered a bus to drive them home to suburban New York. In Cincinnati, the 180 stores of the Kenwood Mall closed. In Seattle, the fishmongers at Pike Place Market stopped their famous ritual of throwing fish through the air to amuse tourists. And across the United States, in the stores that remained open, many people behaved as they did at a Barnes & Noble bookstore in Bend, Ore. -- venturing out not to shop but to talk with one another and to seek comfort.
The skies were empty of commercial airliners, factories canceled shifts, sports leagues postponed games, Broadway theaters went dark, financial markets closed, jaunty advertising diminished and truck drivers pulled off highways to watch the tragedy unfold on television at roadside rest stops. Even on Friday, three days after the terrorist attacks, the worst in the nation's history, America was still in the process of getting back to work.
''As long as there is shock and grief, your mind is somewhere else, and not on buying a new car, or on fixing the bedroom and kitchen, or on anything that requires an effort out of the routine,'' said Daniel Yankelovich, chairman of DYG, a public opinion polling company. ''The question is how long does it take to get over the shock and grief, and if you are not personally touched by this tragedy, that is probably two or three weeks.''
Two or three weeks can produce enough damage, economists say, to postpone the rebound that many forecasters had expected by Christmas and to tip an already weak economy into recession. With the unemployment rate already having spiked to 4.9 percent last month, from 4.5 percent, jobs are particularly vulnerable.
Virtually no executives mentioned layoffs last week. On the contrary, companies embraced and comforted their workers, and the downsizing announcements that had proliferated through Monday -- there were a dozen on that day alone -- shrank to only two for the rest of the week, a survey by Challenger, Gray & Christmas, the outplacement firm, showed.
But many managers face an even greater profit crunch now than they did a week ago, forcing thoughts of job losses eventually. ''Cutting staff has to be an issue in everyone's head,'' said Earnest W. Deavenport Jr., chairman of the Eastman Chemical Company, ''but it is much too early to speculate on that.''
Lawrence Bates, a Cincinnati businessman, is already concerned. He founded and still runs a 15-person operation, now a subsidiary of NetSetGo, that helps corporate clients buy computer systems and use the Internet. His two sales representatives normally bring in two or three new orders a week, a flow that Mr. Bates says he must maintain to keep his staff fully employed. Last week, however, for the first time in years, there was no new business.

New Large-Scale Study on Shale Gas Development and Property Values
WASHINGTON—Shale gas development creates winners and losers among homeowners who live near drilled wells, according to a study released today by Resources for the Future.
The development affects the value of nearby homes differently, depending on how far a home is from a well, how long ago it was drilled, and whether the home relies on groundwater aquifers for their water supply.
The study, authored by RFF Fellow Lucija Muehlenbachs, Beia Spiller of the Environmental Defense Fund, and Christopher Timmins of Duke University, relied on the sale price of hundreds of thousands of properties across 36 counties in Pennsylvania and New York from 1995 to 2012 (the data were obtained from CoreLogic).
For homes that depend on groundwater, the closer they are to a shale gas well, the worse off they are (e.g., at 1.5km, a shale gas well decreases values by 4 percent but at 1km it decreases values by 22 percent). For homes that have access to piped water, being within 1.5km or 2km increases their value (by 3 to 6 percent), likely due to royalty payments, but being closer (i.e., within 1km) does not affect values.
At a regional level (within 20km), recently drilled wells have a positive effect on property values. This "boomtown" effect, however, is temporary and fades one year after the well's drilling.
"We show that it is not a simple story of everyone winning or everyone losing," says Muehlenbachs. "For example, while there are temporary regional benefits from drilling, it turns out that the presence of undrilled wells that were permitted more than a year ago has a negative effect on property values."
This study, The Housing Market Impacts of Shale Gas Development, expands on earlier research by the authors that also resulted in similar findings but focused only on homes in Washington County, Pennsylvania.
Founded in 1952, Resources for the Future is an independent and nonpartisan institution.

The commercial real estate industry's ongoing focus on energy efficiency has netted positive results, according to a report from the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) International and Kingsley Associates.
Analysis reveals that properties in the United States reduced total operating expenses from $8.18 to $7.86 per square foot on average from 2011 to 2012, a difference of $0.32 or 3.9%.
About two-thirds of these savings were achieved in the utility category, where average expenses fell $0.21—a whopping 9%—to $2.12 per square foot, underscoring an industry focus on maximizing building efficiency and smart asset management.
Nearly all building types boasted operating expense savings during 2012. Only corporate facilities saw total operating expenses remain essentially unchanged with a slight 0.5% increase. Downtown buildings remained, on average, more expensive to operate than their suburban counterparts, and they also reported a slightly smaller expense savings (4.1% versus 6.4% for suburban buildings).
As with total operating expenses, the decrease in utility expenses per square foot in 2012 also was broad-based. Private sector office buildings in both downtown and suburban locations observed an identical 9.3% reduction, though costs remain higher at downtown locations. Multi-tenant buildings were able to achieve greater savings than corporate or single-tenant facilities (9.6% versus 3%), but the trend was the same for both. However, not all property types saw a decline in this area. Utility costs rose 2.7% at medical office buildings and 4.2% at government-occupied facilities.
The Experience Exchange Report is based off the examination of a specialized control sample of more than 2,000 private sector buildings representing 385 million square feet of U.S. office space.

Historical Traveler Reviews Sol Don Marco Torremolinos
Wonderful hotel
We stayed at the Don Marco from 29th December until January 7th and had a fantastic holiday. The hotel is beautiful and the reception staff are so pleasant and welcoming on arrival and made you feel at home immediately. The hotel bedroom was beautiful and had a fridge and tv. Maid service was first class and all the staff were so friendly. The New Year's Eve Gala Dinner was spectacular and had 8 wonderful courses with free wines and drinks in the bar until 1 am if you wished. When we left the dining room we were all give party bags full of fun hats etc., and 12 grapes to bring in the traditional Spanish New Year. We loved every minute of our holiday and are planning to return in September. The hotel is right on the front and there are steps and a lift available to take you to the centre. There is also a bus stop across the road from the Don Marco. You can eat at the other two hotels Don Pablo and Don Pedro. There are 9 pools and lovely gardens. Can't wait until September.
Lovely hotel!!!
I have just got back from our holiday for one week at torremolinos! We (my fiance and I) stayed at the don marco and it was a lovely hotel!
We payed extra for a terrace view which was over the pool and was great. We got the sun all day on our balcony too!!! We could see and hear the entertainment on a night easy enough from our balcony if we had decided not to go to the bar!
The room was lovely a bit on the smaller side for a four star hotel but still ample room for the two of us!
The maid service was excellent, they came changed the towels everyday and cleaned through the room, the beds were made everyday and changed twice!!
The facilities in the hotel were great!!! We had the choice of about six pools (apparently there were more but we didnt need to find them) which were all dotted around the complex. There were outside jacuzis which were fab in the hot sun and also some inside!
The complex was great as we had choice of three hotels facilities to choose from and also we had choice of two restraunts to use, we found the Pablo hotel food the best.
My fiance used the spa facilities which he enjoyed! He paid 48 euros and had a half hour massage, use of the saunas, hydro massage pool, jacuzi etc and was there for two hours! The spa was brand new along with the Marco in 2004 so it was nice and posh!!!
The marco has a great location we had plenty of shops, bars and restraunts etc around the hotel although it was quite quiet but we like it that way! If we wanted a bit more lively we walked about fifteen minutes into the busier part which is very easy to find!!
Overall we had a great time, the location, hotel and resort were fab and would defo reccomend it for couples of any age and families! Its not a place for a wild and lively holiday!!
New Hotel - costa del Sol
We were two families if three and stayed for two nights HB.
Hotel was new and above average.
Food was Ok but nothing to write home about.
Service was very good.
Nice to have access to all the complex and all the pools.
Great Hotel
My husband & I stayed at this hotel for 9 nights in July.The hotel is very nice,the reception area is beautiful all glass and marble.The room was a decent size with a big bathroom,the only complaint here was that the wardrobe space was not very big,but the room was spotless.
I did think the dining room let this hotel down.The food was alright nothing spectacular but I thought the basic hygiene let the dining room down.
The floors didn't look as if they had not been washed or swept and one morning there was some chips lying under a table,I don't think they were on the menu at breakfast.You can eat at the other hotels in the complex.We ate at the Don Pablo a few times and although it was a lot bigger it seemed to be a lot cleaner.
There was always plenty of room on the terraces and it was the first hotel we had been at for a long time where sunbeds were not reserved.
On the whole we did like the Don Marco and would certainly go back to it again,maybe next time we will go bed & breakfast if possible.We would recommend it to others.
Lovely Hotel
Spent 9 nights at the Don Marco in July with my husband, hotel is very good, lots of marble and glass in the reception area. Rooms were very clean with large bathroom,although wardrobe space was quite limited. The maids kept them in tip-top condition and they were spotless.
The terraces were great with ample sunbeds. Its the first hotel we have been at in a long time where you didn't see any towels left on sunbeds which were not occupied.
The downside of the Don Marco was its dining room. The food was alright though nothing great but I thought the hygiene was very lax. The floors always looked very grubby and one morning there were chips under one of the tables, I don't think you get them on the breakfast menu. The floors never seemed to be washed or swept out. You could eat at the other hotels in the complex which we did. The Don Pablo although a lot bigger seemed to be a lot cleaner.
That apart the hotel is excellent and we would have no trouble recommending it, maybe next time we would go bed and breakfast though.
1st class hotel.
Reviews we'd looked at were all good at Don Marco so choose to go there,flights suited us going from Glasgow and coming back.Never been to Costa de Sol before so just went for it.Couple in their 30's,(children away with grandparents)looking for a nice relaxing week with no hassles and found it here.Don Marco was the 1st hotel that we didn't have to put towels out at any time of the day,any day of the week.Hotel was 1st class in all aspects.Went Half Board but ate out often as we got tired of the hotel food,(not that there was nothing wrong with it).Only thing was pool was a little small and the pool bar wasn't open long enough during the day.Torremolines was slightly quieter than we thought it would be but plently nightlife in Belemandena.Good holiday all round.
Sol Don Marco - great hotel.
I've just returned from a fortnight's holiday at this hotel with my boyfriend, and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The hotel is located centrally in Torremolinos, near loads of shops (touristy ones, though) and directly across from the beach. It is also right beside the Don Pablo and Don Pedro hotels, and you can easily access all the facilities of each of these hotels- plenty of pools to choose from, and we also had the choice of eating dinner at the Don Pablo (we were staying half board).
The rooms weren't as big as we expected them to be, but this wasn't a major problem. Most importantly, they were clean - the maids came daily - and they had nice bathrooms with a decent balcony. Also a hairdryer, and a TV which, quite unusually, had BBC1 which was good to catch up on the news from home. Each room also had an electronic safe which cost about 2 euros a day - well worth the money.
There was a decent choice of food every night, perhaps not of 4* quality but certainly of a good 3* standard - plenty of salads, olives, vegetables, pasta, pizza, veal, pork, and fish dishes. Each night there would be a speciality; usually fresh fish, or skewered chicken kebabs. A decent choice of desserts. Breakfast was also decent: fried eggs, sausages, tomatoes, Spanish omelettes, croissants, and generally a good bread selection as well as tea and coffee etc. 24 hour room service was also on offer, and prices were reasonable.
The staff were all very friendly and approachable, on hand to answer any questions you had and always smiling and willing to help.
The pools were all nice, as was the jacuzzi, and we didn't really have problems getting a sunlounger.
Loads of activities on offer during the day and entertainment on at all 3 Sol hotels at night, so you'd have a choice of where you wanted to go. Entertainment wasn't amazing, though, but is it ever! There was a woman singing cabaret most nights. However, Torremolinos has loads to offer and you wouldn't have to walk far to find something more to your taste. There's also a train station nearby where you can go to nearby towns of Malaga and Fuengirola, and tickets are extremely cheap (1.70 euros for a return ticket to either place).
When I was staying, the large majority of the customers in the hotel were aged 50+, and there were also some families with small children. I'd reccommend this hotel to families, couples, and older people. Teenagers might not enjoy this hotel as much (although I am 18 and really liked it) - it's definitely not for people looking for 18-30 style holidays. In saying that, there are loads of discos and clubs in Torremolinos itself, and it is really lively at night, so teenagers won't be stuck for things to do if they go with their family.
Would certainly go back, this holiday was well worth the money we paid.
Great hotel
Just back from a week in the sun at the Don Marco. Lovely hotel and everything spotless. Rooms very comfortable and the indoor pool was very welcome as the outdoor pools are a bit chilly in April! Buffet style meals, most of the time excellent. However they did offer rabbit one night. It seemed to disappear off the hot plates, not sure whither the Spanish guests ate it or it was simply removed or even jumped!!!! Staying in this hotel was very interesting as the guests were from all around europe and america. Staff very helpful when our room key disabled itself and we were temporarily locked out of our bedroom. We were very dubious about going to Torremolinos for a holiday but were pleasantly surprised the area we stayed in was lovely.
Just Great
A lovely hotel for a few days by the Med - the most beautiful reception and lobby area, matched by comfortable bedrooms, good quality buffet and excellent pool and sundeck areas. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will definitely be back, possibly as soon as October this year.
A taxi trip at 15 Euros was enough to get to and from the airport and the location on the beach and within strolling distance of the marina at Benalmadena make this a great choice.
I'll be back....
Having been to Torremolinos before, booked Sol Don Pedro based mainly on location. Knew nothing of Sol Don Marco as, as it turns out, it wasn't offically opened when we arrived.
Hence tried to check in to Don Pedro (which we'd booked) and after the worrying 'no room here' response, were escorted thru the gardens, suitcases in tow to the mirage that is the new Sol Don Marco hotel.
Fantastic. Well worthy of its 4* status. Reception area huge and well presented (fountains anyone?) and rooms spacious and well laid out. All rooms have balconies, ours was with an internal pool view, others have sea view as the hotel is the 3rd in the Sol complex with the best sea front position. Rooms were efficiently cleaned daily.
Intended to eat out (even though got a deal for half board) but the food was fantasic so ended up eating in all week. Guests can eat in any of the restaurnants within the whole complex, as they can use any of the other (Don Pedro, Don Pablo) facilites. Think there were 8+ pools. To be honest didn't venture out of 'our' pool or 'our' resturant as we were so content.
Think there is a gym (no did n't bother with that) also a couple of jacuzzi's (1 indoor, 1 outdoor) and probably lots of a other facilites I did n't see.
The 3* Sol Don Pedro, did look a little dated but to be honest it would, next to the brand new Don Marco. Having booked the 3* and being switched to the 4* (at no extra charge) we of course were extremely happy. That said, when I return I'll be back at the Don Marco - extra cost or not. It's for a holiday after all.
Staff very helpful - though sometimes English not too good (can't complain as my Spanish is none existant). We went in Jun 04 and though finishing touches still ongoing at this time, the work did n't disturb us too much. The beach location made life much easier, yes a 10min walk into the town centre (uphill or the end Calle Migel steps) but loads of bars along the way for pit-stops. In contrast the hotels in the town centre, looked grim, and must have been very noisey at night.
Read up on Torremolinos hotels before booking, and with some of the horror stories re other hotels would n't even contemplate booking anywhere else.

Day 3: The Long Hike to Malaga
... of traditional Christian faiths may turn more and more to Eastern faiths to satisfy their spiritual needs. Maybe some folks here in Benalmadena are hungry for more than nightclubs, beaches and fancy villas with a view... It seems like a significant and un-typical spot for a video clip here in southern Spain. Rather than follow the road along the ridge, I opt for the winding streets heading down the hillside, hoping I don't end up in another dead end. I notice other ...

Picked up a local paper at this campsite, very interesting indeed. First thing of note was the write up about the storm earlier in the week, which was apparently the worst they'd had in 20 years. There was a picture of a Beach Bar in Torre del Mar which we walked past whilst they were cleaning up, Penny commented as there were girls in shorts and ...

Anyway, in Malaga, it's definitely a tale of two or three cities. On the bus, right up to our stop it did not look pleasant. 5 mins walk from our stop and we're at the harbour and it's really nice (now we understand that it's due to all the cruise ships that dock here), but then round the corner are the beaches and they're not pleasant at all. Granted it looks like they had the same storm ...

With 132 stone steps, and a steep road up to our apartment, we huff 'n puff to pick up some oranges and milk!! Oh, to be young and bouncy!
We headed to the beach in Benalmadena for the afternoon, hoping all in PEI will weather the storm safely.

E.D. White wins regional title
Published: Thursday, April 28, 2005 at 1:54 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 28, 2005 at 3:53 p.m.
THIBODAUX -- Little was decided after the first nine holes were played during the Regional IV-III Golf Match at the Bayou Country Club Wednesday.
When play began on the back nine, E.D. White Catholic and St. Charles Catholic high schools were tied at 158 with Newman six shots back at 164. But the Cardinals remained steady and won the match with a team score of 318. Newman made up ground on St. Charles to finish second at 327. St. Charles was third at 330.
Both E.D. White and Newman will participate in the Division III State Tournament at Copper Mill in Zachary Monday and Tuesday.
Finishing fourth was Lutcher with a 367 and Belle Chase ended the match in fifth place with a 377.
EDW coach Preston LeJeune said consistency has been a strength of his team this season.
"We've played well all year long," he said. "I think the only teams to beat us were South Lafourche and Hahnville and both of them are doing well in Division I. In the state tournament, we need three guys to shoot in the 70s and another to shoot in the low 80s for us to have a shot."
Leading EDW was Matt Bonvillian, who claimed his second consecutive regional title with a 76. He shot a 75 last year.
Bonvillian was six-over par at the turn but shot even par on the back nine to claim the title.
"The front nine, I didn't do what I wanted to," he said. "But on the back nine, I shot even par, so I was pleased with that. I just want to shoot better at state. Last year we finished second to last, so we want to improve."
Also for EDW, Will Graugnard shot an 80, Chris Monier and Nolan Dumas both shot 81 and Jordan Lirette finished with an 86.
Isi Esquenzai paced Newman with a 78 and Bryan Pendelton shot an 81. Also for Newman, Frank Levy shot an 82, Whit Hughley shot an 86 and Justin Priestly finished with an 88.
The top nine individual scores also qualified for the state tournament.
The top nine finishers are Bonvillian; Ezquenazi; Robbie Ocmond, St. Charles Catholic, 78; Graugnard; Dumas; Monier; Pendleton; Levy; and Andrew Coleman, St. Charles Catholic, 82.

It was a fight Meridian was used to fighting, and a fight it's used to winning, so when it was announced the plans for the realignment and closure of bases across the nation would come this year, people here prepared for another battle.
There was certainly that, though not exactly the battle people here were accustomed to fighting, this time when the BRAC announcements were made, the long jeopardized Meridian Naval Air Station was spared and significant cuts. Unfortunately, Meridian's Air National Guard Wing was not.
Lamar McDonald was a part of Meridian's Military Team. He said "We're doing our very best to determine exactly what the department of defense is planning for the 186th, what it means."
What it meant was that the base would be losing 175 full-time jobs and the familiar air refueling tankers that have been there for many years, unless Meridian's Military Team could talk the BRAC Commission out of it.
The team thought they had a pretty good argument. They told commissioners moving the re-fuelers out of Meridian would mean there wouldn't be enough in the Southeast to handle the number of planes that needed refueling here. They also told them the cost of training people to take Meridian's pilots places would offset any savings that might occur by realigning the 186th.
"Our argument is the most solid, tactical argument. It just does make sense," said Langston Knight, who was also on the Meridian Military Team.
Unfortunately, BRAC Commissioners did not feel that way. They went along with Pentagon recommendations and voted to realign the base. At this point, it's not known exactly when that will happen, or what, if any, mission will replace the 186th's current mission.

Holidays Won't Bring Much Cheer for Retailers
The worst of the economic downturn is expected to be in the current quarter, with the nation's output declining at an annualized 3% to 5% depending on the forecast. The low point coming squarely within the holiday season will mean a particularly brutal period for retailers, a new Conference Board survey shows.
U.S. households expect to spend 11% less on holiday gifts this year compared to last year, the business group said today. The Conference Board's 2008 Christmas survey of 5,000 households found that, on average, they plan to dish out $418 for gifts during the holidays, down from $471 last year.
"Consumers are in a cost conscious mood heading into the holiday season," said Lynn Franco, director of the Conference Board's Consumer Research Center. "This is shaping up to be one of the most challenging holiday seasons in years and it's going to take more than the usual discounts and incentives from retailers to get consumers to spend more freely."
Just 27% of households plan to spend $500 or more on Christmas gifts, down from 33% last year. About 37% plan to spend $200 to $500, and 35% plan to spend less than $200.
The top spenders — an average of $550 per household — are in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin. The lowest Christmas spenders — $330 for gifts on average — are Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas.
About 39% of consumers plan to buy Christmas gifts on the Internet, the Conference Board said. –Sudeep Reddy

To Kill a Mockingbird
by Harper Lee
To Kill a Mockingbird Chapter 26 Summary
- School starts (third grade for Scout and seventh for Jem, who's got a place on the football team) so once again they're passing the Radley Place every day.
- Boo Radley seems positively tame after the events of the last year, which still haven't quite died down.
- Jem and Scout are practicing their gentleman and lady skills in the schoolyard, where most of their classmates share their parents' prejudices.
- Scout wonders why everyone re-elected Atticus to represent them in the state government if they all think he's wrong, and concludes that people are just plain weird. (We hear you.)
- Every week, Scout's class has a Current Events assignment, and one day the current event is Hitler.
- The teacher Miss Gates seizes the moment for a little lecture about the difference between democracy and dictatorship, and about the persecution of Jews.
- Later, Scout asks Atticus why the people Hitler's persecuting don't just persecute him instead, since there's lots of them and only one Hitler, and Atticus answers that he doesn't know.
- Scout asks Atticus if hating Hitler is okay.
- Apparently not, even if it's Hitler.
- Scout still can't quite formulate the question that's bugging her, so she goes to Jem, who's eaten his way through several bunches of bananas in an attempt to bulk up so he can get a better position on the football team.
- Scout tries to explain what's bothering her: it's bad to persecute people, and Miss Gates seems really upset at the way Hitler's persecuting the Jews, but she remembers Miss Gates coming down the courthouse steps after the trial saying "it's time somebody taught them a lesson" (26.56).
- Here's the question: "how can you hate Hitler so bad an' then turn around and be ugly about folks right at home[?]" (26.56).
- But Jem doesn't ever want to talk about the courthouse again.
- Scout goes back to Atticus and tries to climb in his lap, though she doesn't really fit there any more.

Skill Level Intermediate
Painting as a physical medium includes the presence of surface and texture. These are part of what makes up the look of a painting to our eyes and brain. And our displays that we paint on in Painter are two-dimensional. But Painter manages to provide a convincing simulation of 3D with its Impasto feature. Now let me warn you, painting with Impasto enabled will often produce a very giddy feeling along with uncontrollable laughter. And I want to show you exactly what I am talking about.
So let's get into looking at this remarkable visual treat. We're going to go ahead and I am going to select the Impasto category here and let's go ahead and utilize to start off with the Texturizer-Heavy. And we also want to open up the Impasto palette to be able to see what's going on here as we get into this. And I am first going to introduce you to just the way the 3D sensation works here. So let's start to paint. Maybe I'll do it with a bit of a darker color. And you can see what's happening is the illusion of 3D is happening, because there is a virtual light source up in the upper left corner here.
And what's happening is on all of those lit surfaces, we are getting the high-lit color and on the non-lit site it's dark. And so the brain reads highlight and shadow as 3D and that's what's happening here. Now Painter's Impasto has a limited degree of height. You can see as I apply here, it does appear to get taller. But if I take it too far what will happen is exactly what you see here. It plateaus. It reaches that invisible top of the height and it flattens out against it.
So there is a limit to the height. Also if I take another tool here, Acid Etch, this actually kind of drills down into existing 3D and it will go beyond. I will even do it out here. It's actually creating a depth beneath the canvas. So we've got a kind of three basic levels to deal with here. And you can see the same thing happening at the bottom here. It is also plateauing when it reaches that limited depth. So you've got the canvas represents, if you want to think of it as the ocean, that's sea level.
And then the bottom of the ocean is this very bottom plateaued area that's down in the depth of the canvas. And the tops of the mountains above the water are this plateau above the virtual 3D surface. So you have got kind of three kind of height areas that will make up the limited 3D depth of Impasto. And there are even tools in here that lets you kind of play around with adding or subtracting. Like if I go to the Depth Eraser, you'll see I'm actually taking away and dropping back down and smoothing that out, until I go below.
You can see now it's actually below sea level there. I can do the opposite and use the Depth Lofter to raise either areas below sea level or just any area on the canvas. You can see right here this is starting to bring up the depths to above sea level. And then I can get into using the Depth Equalizer, which is a tool that just brings everything back. So this will just negate any height and any depth. And it will eventually just flatten out.
So now here we are at sea level in this area where you can see this little edge. So you've got the ability within Impasto and its various tools to push and pull on this virtual 3D depth that makes up the Impasto layer. Now let's take a look at a brush working within this and we will go to Smeary Round, and we just grab a color here. And I'll just like to paint on this surface and you can see how the brush strokes are implied now into this 3D surface.
As I paint out on the canvas, it's pretty flat. But as I bore into this supposedly existing 3D depth, there is more of an enhanced effect. And as I apply brush strokes, they are going to slowly build up. So each stroke builds upon the last one and starts to increase the height in this case. Now you can play around with some of the controls within the Impasto palette. You will notice that, for example, Draw To is a control. Most brushes in Painter are set to just draw in color, okay.
Now we did, however, look at the Acid Etch. That was set to only to draw to depth. But within most of the brushes in the Impasto category, you're dealing with, painting with both color and depth at the same time. So not only are we applying color to the canvas, but we are also applying the virtual depth at the same time. You can also play around with the actual depth that the brush wants to paint at. If I crank this all the way up, what happens is I start to get a very kind of exaggerated height.
It's almost cartoon like. Especially, it's starting to get bad anti -aliasing in areas of the brush stroke. And that's definitely not something you want. So it's better to keep depth at a lower level so that the appearance of depth is subtle rather than overtly obvious. You can also go to the Canvas menu and Surface Lighting is what controls this illusion of three- dimensional depth based on lighting. If I move my lighting source around, you can see how it's changing the appearance of the lighting that's lighting this up.
And you can start to get it around to where no lights actually even impacting on it. But how the lighting is set plays a great deal into how your final image is going to look, or how you adjust it. I can also control the appearance of depth from here. This is actually setting the depth for the brush, how much to paint in the scene. But this is an overwriting effect that actually controls how the whole 3D scene itself looks. So I can eventually take it all the way down to no depth information.
And now we are just looking at only the paint that's been applied. But this again is another kind of season to taste control that you can use to find what looks right for the type of painting you are doing. So the Surface Lighting is a great way to alter your painting even after the painting work is done. How it's lit can make a great deal of difference in the look of the image itself. Now, if you're intent on working on a painting and you want to go back and work on it later, if you want to save this file, you must save it in Painter's native RIFF format.
Any other format will just discard the height information and it will no longer be part of the image. The other thing you might want to do is you may want to take this image into something like Photoshop and retain this look of 3D. There's no obvious control anywhere in the interface that tells you how to flatten this down. The only way to do it is to go to the File menu and say Clone. When you clone, this is now a flattened image and there's no extra 3D information saved with it.
So you could save this image and it will appear visually just as you see it here. It's just no longer has any 3D data associated with it that you can manipulate. That's where by saving it as a RIFF file, you could open this back up and continue to manipulate the 3D surface of the Impasto. So Impasto is just a great way of taking your painting in a different direction, where you really are actually starting to play with the sense of depth that the physical medium of paint often actually has associated with it.
So I would really say this is one of the areas you would like to probably spend some time in, and just be prepared to get a little giddy along the way and maybe laugh uncontrollably at the same time.

Crows Midcalf Socks
Also found in:
♠ Novelty Socks ♠ Midcalves ♠ Sock It To Me ♠ Men's Socks ♠ Larger Feet ♠ Critter Socks
Sized for men, but all the girls will love them too! A murder of crows has collected on each sock awaiting adventure and mischief. Don't be surprised if you start finding shiny things hidden in your shoes while these crows are with you.
Men's sock size 10 - 13, should fit men's shoe sizes 8-11 and women 9-13, but we found they fit fine on smaller feet too.
Additional Info: Made in Korea.
Crows are most easily distinguished from ravens by their size and bills, crows are much smaller and have a straight bill rather than the curved version of the larger raven.
Fiber Content: 62% cotton, 36% polyester, 2% spandex.
Machine wash cold, tumble dry low or line dry.

Comments about Sock It To Me Crows Midcalf:
So my husband and I have a thing for crows. When I saw these, I knew they had to be mine. Love the brand, love these socks. Nice because they are made for larger feet.
Only complaint is the weirdly wide band of black at the top. I'm not actually sure why this bothers me so much, but it does, and it's the only thing I would change about these socks.

Q:On the inside, are there a bunch of little threads running between all the crows? This is the case with some exciting patterned socks I already have, and my toes always love to catch on the threads as I put them on.Asked on 8/26/2014 by nopemobile from CT, United States
1 answer
A:Although many styles tend to have that problem, due to how different colours are knit in, the little crows on these socks are far enough apart that there aren't strings stretching between the birds to catch your toes!
Feel free to drop us a line (http://www.sockdreams.com/info/contact/) if you have other styles who's string status you're curious about!Answered on 8/30/2014 by brenna from Sock Dreams HQ

We now begin preparations for traditional fall activities, including the Parent-Teacher conferences, as well as special events, like the PTA sponsored Halloween Party on October 30th. For the first time, the Board of Education will host a special "State of the School" meeting for the entire community on Tuesday, October 27th at 7:00 p.m. at the Fairview South Auditorium. This will be a wonderful opportunity for community members to meet one another and to learn about the many programs and services provided by your community school!
The start of a new school year is a wonderful time to revisit and refocus on our
"Create a strong foundation for academic excellence and personal growth by setting high expectations, teaching to the needs of learners and embracing the richness of our cultural diversity."

My doctor prescribed 40 ml of Prozac for my husband and he has been on it for over a year and because he doesn't like medications and wants to be off his Prozac I am wondering if it is a good idea to be taken off them cold turkey. Should he be weined off slowly or just stop taking them? Are there some side effects to doing it this way? Seems like there might be.
