This is a warning to everyone who stays at the Excalibur hotel. I was a recent victim of room theft that occured on Sunday, July 31st between midnight and 4:00AM. The theft also occured while I was in the room sleeping. This was a frightening thought. Here is my story.
Just arriving from a Grand Canyon tour, I took a quick shower and left the room around 11:45PM on Saturday night to explore the strip. I came back around 3:30AM and went to a deep sleep from the long day. Upon waking up at 10:00AM, I found that jewelry and clothing items were missing from where I had left them only a few hours before when I arrived. Sadly, they took my wedding ring, souvenirs I had purchased and clothing. Why? How? I was baffled and even second guessed myself in the process, thinking maybe I had forgotten or misplaced them. However my friend who was on the other bed quickly mentioned that he was missing $350 from his wallet.
We had reported this the security office. The officer came into room and in a nut shell, gave us a incident report. I had asked for an escalation contact and was denied any information. I spoke with the hotel manager and she gave me the security manager, a gentleman named Mike Morrill. I will get in touch with him and will attempt to reach the highest level of authority I can. I know I will never get my items back, but at least I would like to protect others from being victimized.
If you google this excalibur theft, you will find a few articles on a possible inside job within the Excalibur organization. Anyone who is reading this and had a similar experience. I need your help. Any information would be great as this will go directly to the BBB and other organizations.
Items getting stolen was sad. However the thought of someone entering my room while sleeping is an assault and invasion.
Thank you

Give me your feedback ! :)
Give me your feedback ! :)
looks nice. However, I didnt get past the first post as I cant speak or read french:)
Looks good. My only comment would be to not justify the titles of the posts.
where do you get all the graphics for your dates!!
tedfox: on internet ! LOL I am looking over the net and once I found something that I like I download it and as soon as I can use it, I use it.
ccheaton: exact. I agree. aligment set to Left.
dpearson: The french post was about the fact that from now on, the "http://blog.idahocline.com" will be in french. ;)
you've got to package those dates for download man!
Very nice, but howd you get the dates to be like that?
yeah, it's a great looking site! Can you plz tell us how you did the dates?
To insert those images, you have to read
Small code to display a day picture instead of date...
For the images themselves, well, as I don't remember from where I downloaded them and as I am not the creator, I prefer to not package them. But if you look for "icon calendar" or something like that I am rather sure you will find some equivalent images.....
thnx for the info idaholic.
I´ve been looking around for good icons but I can´t find any. If someone find anything good, plz post a link here.
For those who are interested by the calendar pictures....
Calendar pictures available to download
I've been playing with adding the graphics in place of the date, and keep getting errors. I'm not sure what I'm doing incorrectly. Here is the error I'm receiving:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/stefan/public_html/wp-content/themes/kubrick/index.php on line 11
And here is the snippet I'm inserting:
<h2 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"> <img src="http://www.vondollens.us/images/calendar/<?PHP echo the_time('m_d'); ?>.png� alt=�<?PHP the_time('F jS, Y'); ?>� width=�96px� height=�96px� />
" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

<?php the_weekday(); ?>, <?php the_time('F jS, Y','H:i') ?> @ <?php the_time() ?>

That looks pretty ugly after I pasted it, hopefully it's readable.
Any direction is appreciated :)
just have a closer look at comments on Calendar pictures available to download

Tasty no vinegar dressing
Posted by Reviewer2641684 on Oct 09, 2011
I am on a diet that doesn't allow for vinegar right now. This dressing is pretty much the only one I could find that didn't have vinegar or high sugar content. I enjoy the flavor and wish there were more flavor varieties out there that fit my needs.
Posted by 5164059584659808776 on Jun 01, 2016
Tastes like the title...which is hard to explain. If you like garlic, you'll like this. Not creamy like a ranch, more of a light taste.

UPDATE: "The Flash" Hasn't Cast Savitar, Says Berlanti
TV, Comic Books
The bad guys of the DC Universe will be thrust into the spotlight in a full-length documentary called Necessary Evil: Villains of DC Comics, narrated by legendary actor Christopher Lee.
Announced today by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment and DC Entertainment, production will begin this weekend at WonderCon in Anaheim, California, where fans are encouraged to dress as their favorite DC villain for a chance to appear in the documentary (there will also be opportunities at Comic-Con International and New York Comic Con). Filming will take place Saturday from 10:30 a.m. to noon at the DC booth (#801).
Necessary Evil will explore DC's rogues in-depth through interviews with "with the famed creators, storytellers and those who have crafted the personalities and profiles of many of the most notorious villains in comic book history."
"DC Comics is known for many things, but chief among them is the compelling, diverse and legendary society of supervillains who populate its universe," Geoff Johns, DC's chief creative officer, said in a statement. "From the monstrous Solomon Grundy to the brutal Black Adam to the charismatic Sinestro, there is no single greater collection of villainy in all of fiction. These villains are hugely popular comic book characters in their own right and, quite honestly, many are often times more popular than some of our iconic superheroes."
Ah, finally, the Dan Didio bio-pic we've all been waiting for.
Ha ha! ZING!
Beat me to it Flack.
'Necessary Evil' – documentary to examine DC villains: DiDio, Harras, Lee and Johns
Seriously people grow up already.
I'm looking forward for this. I love Christopher Lee and documentaries about comics are always welcome.
Documentary, or feature-length advertisement?
I hope that aside from narrating that Lee is allowed to make some insights of his own, having played a lot of villains over the years. His take on DC's villains could be quite fascinating.
@ Dawnell_do
Who says to some people having fun: "Seriously people grow up already."
Why Dawnell? Why?
Sounds pretty cool. DC has some great villains, as the awesome Alex Ross art can attest to.
But I would say hateful fanboys who whine and cry endlessly about any sort of change are way more villainous than DiDio, Lee, and Johns, guys who obviously love comics.
Christopher Lee. DC villains. Perfect combo.
Fans still complaining about the New 52; perfect idiots.
And an idiot complaining about people complaining; very brilliant.
What DC Comics really need is:
A complete change of direction and management.
The worst supervillains today are the editors and creative officers at DC and the fans who think all is well at Dysfunctional Comics…
Seconded with Steve Flack about the Dan Didio bio-pic…
Finally, a DC villain more villainous than Ra's al Ghul, Lex Luthor, or The Joker!
(To be fair, nobody at DC's a bigger villain than Darkseid, Mort Weisinger, or Jack Leibowitz… Dan's just their lovechild. That or he's a forgotten clone of a competent editorial officer from Bizarroworld.)
I hear that the Didio bio-pic is next in line after the video production company gets done with its Marvel Supervillains videos about Martin Goodman and Ron Perlman. They're delaying the Bob Harras and Joe Quesada "Editors of Evil" line to fast-track the Didio bio-doc.
Who is between Grundy and Ivy?
Also, is that Clayface Between Scarecrow and Black Adam?
I like the Bizarro and Black Adam's neck braces— er, Jim Lee collars.
Bravo for Ross' commentary on the New 52 costume designs! Reminds me of his Liefeld Magog "hommage" in KINGDOM COME…
"Who is between Grundy and Ivy?"
Hard to tell without being able to zoom in, but looks a bit like T.O. Morrow
"Who is between Grundy and Ivy?"
I believe that it is Metallo. In the story, he looks human until he opens up his chest and tries to kill Superman with his Kryptonite heart.
and an idiot complaing about who complains about who complain about the new 52.
Ad infinitum
interesting but surprised they did not include dcs number one bad guy the joker when describing what this doc is about.

Not every plane arrival calls for cheering and clapping. This one however, not only calls for some shouting, but for hugs and warm embraces. 71-year-old William Hatcher of Meridian, made it home after surviving the Haiti Earthquake, one of the most devastating in history. He was there on a mission trip and claims he survived because he did whatever needed to be done. That includes sleeping in the U.S. embassy.
"When I say slept there, we slept in the reception hall with all of the windows, where you fill out your papers. So that is where we slept in the chairs or out in the yard," explains William Hatcher.
Chairs or grass, that didn't matter for Hatcher. He just wanted to get back to his family and says he was able to thanks to the hard work of U.S. Embassy staff.
"The United States Embassy did a remarkable job in Haiti."
After staying in the embassy, Hatcher and a large group of people were flown to the Dominican Republic. That's where they found supplies.
"Candies, gum, crackers, knick-knacks of all types. And then there were clothes because some of the people had lost all of their clothes," says Hatcher.
More importantly, that's where they found a clinic.
"They had a hospital set up there. Not a hospital, but a clinic."
Hatcher says he was most impressed with how smoothly things operated for him and the group of people he was with.
"It's just unbelievable," expresses Hatcher.
What's even more unbelievable are the stories Hatcher has lived to tell. As he told his granddaughter Sarah over the phone, he now has even more stories to talk about.
"I've got stories!"

Big Tips Texas
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Big Tips Texas is a reality series that centers on the wild behavior of a group of waitresses at a Texas bar. Drinking is constant, and the cast often engages in drunken behavior, some of which leads to arguments and brawls. There's lots of sexual innuendo, as well as frequent images of women in skimpy bikini tops and short shorts, blacked out nudity, and kissing. The language is pretty salty, too (the strongest words are bleeped). There's not much here for teens, and it's definitely not meant for kids.
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
What's the story?
The reality series BIG TIPS TEXAS features a group of female servers living it up in and around a Dallas-area bar. The wild waitresses work at The Redneck Heaven, a bar and restaurant known for its non-stop party atmosphere and opportunities to make big tips. While newbies like Morgan, Macy, and Krystin work hard to learn the ropes, they must cope with domineering veterans like bartenders Claire and Amber. Trying to keep them in line is their boss Typhani, who rose from the waitressing ranks to become the head of the restaurant's marketing department. It gets pretty crazy, especially when they spend time outside of the bar. But for many of these women, working long and crazy shifts at the restaurant will allow them to earn the money they need to fund their dreams.
Is it any good?
From serving customers burgers and beer to continually bickering with each other about their looks, attitudes, and other issues, the women featured here offer little more than a chance to watch them drink, party, and argue. Despite the fact that some of these women are working hard to earn cash to go to college or start a new business, it's hard to take them seriously.
It's not clear why these women have their own TV show, as any attempts to tell a story are overshadowed by their drunken, over-the-top behavior. Some folks may find them entertaining enough to watch, but it's unlikely that you'll find anything educational or inspiring here.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about reality shows. Why were these women given their own show? Do you think the behavior they exhibit on the show is real? Or are their risky behaviors being hyped up for entertainment purposes?
What kinds of messages do shows like this send about women? Do you think it's appropriate for these women to go to work and dress sexy or behave the way they do to make more money? Are these women good role models for other women?

In the days before pretty wine labels came into vogue, with pictures of exotic animals, flowers, and the inventive wares of well-known artists to adorn the bottle, there was a saying among wine lovers: "The simpler the label, the better the wine." In the case of Eidos de Padriñán, the adage still holds true. As a classic wine of Spain, the Eidos de Padriñán Albariño sports the simplest of labels, but what rests within is not simple at all, nor has it anything to prove: the wine will speak volumes once it has been poured. Made for wine drinkers who truly love dry white wine – and we mean classic dry white wine – the Eidos de Padriñán quenches like an ocean breeze. Its aromatic profile is both fresh and profound. The enticing scents of ripe pear and stone fruits, mingled with a pleasant, refreshing minerality, dominate the nose. Full but not flabby, the 2007 Eidos de Padriñán enlivens the palate with a charismatic concoction of vibrant fruit, liquid stones, and bracing acidity, all of which add length and depth to an already brilliant offering. Although thoroughly enjoyable when well chilled, the 2007 Eidos, like most first rate Albariño wines, is at its finest when served only lightly chilled. At 50º-55º F, the Eidos will unfold gently in the glass and seduce those patient enough to allow the stinging chill of modern refrigeration to subside. Enjoy!
In its native Galicia, tapas and seafood constitute the accompaniments of choice with Albariño. And the 2007 Eidos shines on both counts. It pairs beautifully with clams, mussels, and oysters, especially when served in a heady broth. Cod, scrod, or almost any flaky white fish steamed in parchment or foil with chopped onion, garlic, tomatoes, olive oil, and herbs provides exemplary companionship to the 2007 Eidos de Padriñan Albariño. Traditional tapas, marinated olives, stuffed mushrooms caps, full-flavored Spanish cheeses, and cured meats like prosciutto are perennial favorites, too. However, one need not travel to Rias Baixas to appreciate this wine. Asian stir-fries, sushi, sashimi, and grilled tuna steaks offer equally pleasing accompaniments and are easy to prepare or take out. One simple favorite is Ahi tuna that is grilled medium rare, drizzled with a tangy ginger or teriyaki sauce, and then served over a bed of organic greens, shredded carrots, edamame, and broccoli. This simple offering accentuates the taste of the wine and exemplifies the art of fusing Asian-accented recipes with traditional European wines like the 2007 Eidos. Salud!
Bodega Eidos is one of the bright new stars in Spain's Rias Baixas appellation of Galicia, Spain's cool, green region that rises from the pounding surf of the North Atlantic to the towering Pyrenees Mountains. It was founded in 2000 by Manuel Villalustre, a well respected local viticulturist with 20 acres of old vines of Albariño. In just a few short years, Bodega Padriñán has established itself as one of most compelling producers of white wines in Spain. Since the completion of his modern winery in 2003, Manuel Villalustre has fashioned two persuasive Albariño wines: Eidos and Veigas. Eidos is the winery's flagship offering.
Manuel Villalustre's 100 separate parcels of vines are located at the most northern end of the Salnés Valley, among the steep hills of Padriñán, from which the winery draws its name. These hand-harvested vineyards are set among the gardens of the village of Sanxenxo, where they enjoy a commanding view of the sea. However, each of these parcels occupies a south facing slope that protects it from the north wind and the stiff ocean breezes that buffet this coast. Superb fruit results from this region's favorable terroir and microclimate, resulting in the most concentrated and intense wines of Rias Baixas. Little wonder, then, that vines have grown here since time immemorial.
Albariño: Spain's Most Compelling White Grape
Albariño is an indigenous Spanish grape variety whose home is Rias Baixas and the Galician hills and hinterlands of northwest Spain and neighboring Portugal. Albariño was once thought to be distantly related to Riesling, but some enologists now believe that Albariño may be more closely connected to the Petit Manseng variety of southwest France, which lies just to the north of Galicia and the towering Pyrenees Mountains. However, no dry white Petit Manseng can match the body and finesse of Spain's finest Albariño wines.
In Portugal, Albariño goes by the name Alvarinho, where it typically ends up as a light summertime quaff in the guise of Vinho Verde. Surely, nowhere could a single grape variety be more different than Albariño is in Spain and Portugal. While Portugal picks this varietal early and makes a low alcohol wine (8.5%-9% on average), Spain, under the tutelage of Manuel Villalustre and similar minded individuals in Rias Baixas, turns out a full-bodied, intense Albariño with aromatic and flavor profiles more akin to Viognier – the greatest white variety of France's Rhône Valley.
Because of its intense flavors and adaptability to difficult climates, Albariño is now extensively planted and studied in other locales around the world, including Australia, California, and South Africa. Early reports from winemakers and consumers elsewhere appear promising for this late-maturing grape, but nowhere more than in Australia where extended growing seasons are common and the grape's firm, bright acidity is much appreciated. A debt of thanks belong to Manuel Villalustre and his Galician counterparts for helping resurrect over the past two decades the great Albariño varietal in Spain and sharing it with the world.

research overview
Writing an 'intellectual biography' of the English neurologist, John Hughlings Jackson (1835-1911). He (and Charcot in France) set the paradigm for neurological thinking to the present time. I believe he also influenced our fundamental thought patterns in basic neuroscience/neurophysiology through his indirect but strong influence on Sherrington and other British neuroscientists in the 20th century. If we could understand the assumptions in this paradigm, could we do the current science better?

These are simply different- in their own class. We ordered these with some heavy towels from Overstock, perhaps because we could not feel either one before purchasing. I thought the heavy ones would be luxurious-heavy. Instead they are like drying off with a cotton bath mat. On the other hand, these make me feel that I am at an opulent Turkish bath. They are fairly light, but lavish, and have their own special weave. An excellent choice & worth every cent of the extra $.
These towels are medium thickness, which I actaully prefer to very thick towels. I find very thick towels hard to use to dry your body and often aren't as absorbent. These are absorbent and did not leave much lint in the drier after the first washing. I expecially like that they do not have a "band" around the bottom. The weave of fabric changes direction to make the accent at the bottom. This is really nice-there is no band to shrink and distort the towels and on the hand towel, you won't be drying your hands on a stiff band!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? as other reviewer said, chocolate is a bit lighter than it appears in the photograph
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. soft, medium thickness, absorbent
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? accurate
I always seek out organically-grown cotton for towels. These are thin, but very absorbent. I like that they are thin because they take less space in the closet. Bath and hand towels have a loop for hanging. They launder nicely. I'm pleased.
Looked for organic towel sets all over the interwebs. Happy to find these and based on the good reviews gave them a try. I really like these towels. I thought I would want super thick plush towels but these, although they are not thick, feel really great, have a nice dense texture and absorb like crazy without all the bulk (and long drying time) of the heavyweights. The quality seems very good and they washed up nicely.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? good match
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? accurate
I'm shocked at all the excellent reviews, which were the reason I purchased this towel set. The towels are shockingly thin, but even worse, they are undersized. In addition, due to the lack of any trim or decorative stitching, they look exactly like the cheap, throwaway towels you'd be handed at a gym to wipe the sweat from your brow. Even worse, upon drying my hands for the first time, the white bath towel developed a pink discoloration. Unbelieveable. Finally, while I'd be happy to pay more for quality organic towels, these are neither high quality, nor do they come with any certification regarding their organic status. Seriously...I think it's just a ploy to get unsuspecting do-gooders to buy these garbage "Turkish towels." Complete waste - I returned them, but given Overstock's return policy on opened merchadise and deduction of shipping costs (both ways), I suspect I'll get just barely half of my $$$ back. Avoid these like the plague!
Not too thick, not too thin. Great towel, super absorbent. I plan on ordering these for gifts.
I was very disappointed with the absorbency of these towels. I don't need my towels to be thick; what I want is an attractive towel that is super absorbent. My favorite towels are fairly thin, but they are made of high-quality, turkish cotton and are very absorbent. I was hoping to find something similar but these towels were not even close. The only reason I'm giving two stars is because they were nice-looking. But if a towel is not absorbent, it's not worth anything. Returning.
Bought the chino color which is a true taupe with no yellow hue - love it. Wish I could find the same color in a bath sheet and shower curtain. We're using these in our guest room and hear they are nice and absorbent. Attached label indicates they are organic but the SEWN-IN LABEL DOES NOT SAY ORGANIC. Why? BOTH labels should say organic.
these 2 sets of towels were so soft. I would rubbed them against my face. My husband couldn't wait to try them. They were as good as other reviewers mentioned. I love how they are thinner than other regular towels but still plush and soft. They are much easier to roll and store away when not in used.
These were just perfect. Not too fluffy nor thin. Well made and absorbent. Both my husband and I love them.
Towels make drying off luxurious. They are thicker than I expected and are not too heavy. The most surprising thing was the loop at one end so you can hang them up. My boys never hung things up before.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? exactly
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. excellent
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? excellent
These are nice towels. They are not too thick, but they dry quickly after use and they are absorbant so that you are not left wet after drying off.
Excellent Product; incredibly beautiful, well-made towels. I ordered more.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? I got the blue and brown towels and the colors were accurate; they go really good together.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. High-quality
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Very Accurate
This is a great organic cotton product for the price. I'm sure you will find thicker more luxurious products out there but for no where near this price point for organic materials. I was completely blown away at how substantial this product was for the price. I bought these mostly because the reviews were glowing and I was not disappointed. This was a finishing touch to a green bathroom remodel and what a pleasant find. I love the little loop on the towel to hang it, nice touch:) I highly recommend. These were delivered to me within 2 days. Overstock has been a treat to order from - one great product after the other.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? our white was white
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Great quality for the price
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Decription was on target
Love these towels. Wash great and very absorbent and soft. Keep getting better the more they are washed.
Make sure to wash before purchase without anything else in the load. Maybe this is common sense to everyone else but I put in some pants and they were COVERED in lint.
The fabric, texture and color are lovely but I am completely baffled about whether these are organic or not. The organic nature is VERY important to me, hence the lower review. The stitched in label says 100% cotton (NOT organic cotton) and a paper tag attached says it's organic. If these are not truly 100% organic this would be a very expensive towel set!
I am so happy with this purchase! They are soft and quite beautiful. I have washed them a couple of times and they seem to get softer. I love the color (i purchased blue). I might have to get another two sets for my other bathroom (give the kids my old towels!). These are great and organic to boot!
Love these towels. My only complaint is that the hems come loose and have to be sewn.
I was disappointed with these towels. I have towels in my linen closet that are over 5 years old, that are not organic, and were inexpensive purchases at local department stores. They may not be organic, but they are LARGE and THICK. I'm paying at least 3x more for these organic towels on sale, and they are not near the quality of what I already have. I assume these are 600gm weight towels. So from what I can see online, there are 900 gram towels that are available, although not in organic that I see. Probably I would have to buy those to equal what I am used to having. Although they are way too expensive. So, I gave these towels to someone who needed new towels and I will keep looking for something better.

You Will Never Stand In My Way
AUTHOR: Jamey - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, February 05, 2013POSTED: Tuesday, February 05, 2013
I have owned several companies. I lost a lot when the real estate bubble popped and also lost a nightclub. It took me a while to get back on my feet. But I did. I assisted in managing an investment company. We made some wise investments, and some terrible ones and ultimately got taken in by a ponzi. Others invested with us and we invested our own money - if I believe in something I'll show it by my actions. I was burned and so were others. I contacted authorities on my own volition to give whatever testimony could assist to catch those truly at fault. At this point two individuals have been incarcerated. Much of this is already out there in cyber space but here it is again.
As far as my job history it is pretty easy to see my history doing mortgages and flipping houses. My ownership of a nightclub. My ownership of an investment company holding telecom and bandwidth licenses. Employment by an events and luxury real estate rental company as well as a marketing and promotion for everything from nightclubs to the medical field. I am an entrepreneur and am am fascinated by many different entities. I have taken some hits and I have floundered. But I am always here and always get back on my feet.
All of this is searchable on public record or can be discovered in a quick search. Now, as far as borrowing money to come to Miami, petty theft of $200, and leaving because I had no friends, this makes this entire post belong on The Dirty. It's very easy to spread lies and to try to defame people these days with nothing but an anonymous claim. Ripoff Report should be ashamed of the manner in which they damage lives without the smallest bit of verification of claim. A company that purports to be a saving grace yet has a price to remove postings. Basic extortion at its best. Just the fact that my responding raises the ranking of this post encourages one to just hope it gets buried. But I will defend myself to the end and not let someone get away with a smear campaign.
I have a good idea of who posted this and it likely has nothing to do with any of my business past and is rather a personal vendetta. I could fire back in the same way but I'm too busy working my butt off in the city I've always wanted to live in, making my dreams come true. Through 18 hour days and a positive vision I've taken a fresh start after losing everything to a company that grossed over 1.7 Million in just the time since this slanderous diatribe was written.
So write what you want. It will only bring you down. My client list consists of billionaires, athletes, celebrities and some of the most influential people in the world. I love waking up every day to face a new challenge and meet more amazing people. It's never about how hard you hit but how hard you get hit and get back up. I refuse to even flinch.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Sliding rails and hitting jumps are still workouts.
While taking the Bataleon Airobic Snowboard through the park and crushing every feature in your path takes almost no effort, it is still technically exercise, so don't feel like you haven't earned those aprés beers at the end of the day. With Triple Base Technology (TBT), the Airobic's profile starts with traditional camber for reliable pop and edge hold, then turns the edges up toward the tip and tail to eliminate hang-ups when riding flat base, maintaining that forgiving feel of rocker without sacrificing the benefits of camber. Park 3BT features a mellow version of camber for a looser feel on rails and stability on big jumps.
A true twin shape allows for unrestricted switch riding, and blunt tips keep the swing weight down. Biax glass gives the board a soft, even flex for proper presses and easy turns. The Core Core uses poplar wood for pop and power, while the added beech hardwood runs from tip-to-tail for comfortable lateral flex and added strength to the board's backbone. Kevlar stringers in key areas make the Airobic lighter and snappier, much like carbon, except stronger and more responsive. It's finished off with a sintered base for impact-resistance and rocket-fast speeds.

This snowboard is the Bomb! Honestly this is my go to park/freestyle board for with the park TBT you know that you can lock into your presses perfectly. No to mention with the TBT you have the ability to hold those side ways butter longer and bigger than ever before. With tradition camber this board has great edge to edge transition.
No only have I rode this board in the park I also like to ride it on sunny days in the steeps. With the park TBT it helps not slide out on your turns and hold your edge all the way. This is a supper soft board but gives you the chance to butter off any cliff, just be sure to stick that landing.
All in all this is a great board made by a great company. Bataleon makes great products that are durable and reliable. I recommend this to any upper level rider, if you are new this may be too aggressive.
Although my pic is of last years model I wish I had this yeras top sheet. Other than that they are the same.

Defense Infrastructure:
Continuing Challenges in Managing DOD Lodging Programs as Army Moves to Privatize Its Program
GAO-07-164: Published: Dec 15, 2006. Publicly Released: Dec 15, 2006.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-5581
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Department of Defense (DOD) transient lodging programs were established to provide quality temporary facilities for authorized personnel, and reduce travel costs through lower rates than commercial hotels. DOD has approximately 82,000 temporary duty (TDY) and permanent-change-of-station (PCS) rooms worldwide, and reported that it cost about $860 million in appropriated and nonappropriated funds to operate them in fiscal year 2005. While the Army plans to privatize its lodging in the United States, there are concerns as to whether these plans are cost-effective, and how they relate to DOD-wide lodging efforts. GAO was asked to address (1) how each military service and DOD manages, funds, and assesses the performance of its lodging programs to meet short- and long- term needs, and (2) the effect that lodging privatization would have on the costs to the Army and the ability to maintain and recapitalize facilities. GAO is also providing information on DOD's actions to implement prior recommendations regarding the lodging program. GAO obtained data from the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the military services and visited nine military installations.
Each military service takes its own approach to manage and fund its lodging programs, but current DOD lodging guidance does not establish performance measures to assess program effectiveness. The Army and Air Force each manage their TDY and PCS lodging under a single organization, while the Navy and Marine Corps have separate organizations managing TDY and PCS facilities. The Marine Corps manages PCS lodging separately because it operates as a profit-generating morale, welfare, and recreation program. The services' lodging programs are provided varying levels of appropriated and nonappropriated fund support, which correlates with the room rates charged. For example, since the Air Force allocates more appropriated funds for program expenses, it charges less than does the Navy PCS program, which is sustained with the revenues generated from room rates. Determining total program costs across the services is difficult because some of the data reported are estimated or hard to collect. Though DOD has a lodging strategic plan, it has not been updated since 1999. DOD has not established lodging performance measures, and the services vary in their efforts to determine program effectiveness. Performance measures could help in assessing future program plans. The Army believes privatization will provide for faster improvement and long-term sustainment of lodging facilities and avoid costs. GAO recognizes these benefits, but its analysis shows privatization could increase costs through increased room rates and create operating challenges that have implications beyond the Army, such as uneven lodging occupancy and room rates where joint basing is planned. Under privatization, the Army projects that a developer will renovate existing or construct new lodging facilities in 7 years, and provide for their adequate sustainment over the 50-year project life. In contrast, the Army projects it would take over 20 years and cost about $1.1 billion to upgrade all lodging facilities under current plans, which do not provide for adequate long-term sustainment. GAO found that lodging privatization could increase costs to the government by about $75 million per year through increased room rates if all lodging facilities in the U.S. are privatized, with those costs borne by the operations and maintenance and military personnel appropriation accounts. The Army currently estimates it will also incur at least $17.3 million in onetime costs related to severance pay and discontinued service retirement annuities for lodging employees let go because of privatization. Privatization also may affect occupancy levels and exacerbate rate disparities among bases and between official and unofficial travelers, as well as lead to inconsistencies in room rates among services at future joint bases. Complying with relevant housing privatization legislation will allow congressional oversight of the Army's privatization of lodging. On October 6, 2006, DOD provided the military services with revised lodging guidance, but this guidance lacks performance standards and measures, and does not address which office within the Office of the Secretary of Defense is responsible for lodging policy and oversight of privatized lodging facilities.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: On April 26, 2007, the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness issued a memorandum on the DOD lodging program that clarifies the respective roles of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness and the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics. The memorandum states that it is in response to GAO's recommendation that the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, in consultation with the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, clarify their respective roles for establishing policy and overseeing the lodging program. Thus, the intent of this recommendation has been met.
Recommendation: The Secretary of Defense should direct the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness in consultation with the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics to clarify their respective roles for establishing policy and overseeing the lodging program.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: According to DOD documentation, in September 2008, the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness issued an updated DOD Lodging strategic plan for 2008-2013. The updated plan lists specific performance standards and provides guidance to the Military Services on how to measure performance for achieving the goals of the plan such as achieving a 72 percent hotel guest satisfaction index using a measuring system of rating guest responses on a scale of one to five. The updated strategic plan meets the intent of the GAO recommendation.
Recommendation: The Secretary of Defense should direct the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness in consultation with the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics to update the DOD lodging program strategic plan, to include developing performance standards and measures to ensure that the goals of the lodging program strategic plan and Army plans to privatize its lodging are being achieved.

Humana Bets All on Managed Care
Published: May 20, 1993
(Page 2 of 2)
Mr. Richter projects 20 percent annual earnings growth for the Humana health plans over the new few years. He expects Galen hospital earnings, by contrast, to grow by only 7 percent in a generally depressed market for hospital services.
Galen has been trying to shore up its own market position by selling off smaller, less profitable hospitals, lowering prices in some cities and emphasizing all the hospitals' community roots.
Deals have been announced to sell eight hospitals, and Mr. Pollard, Galen's chairman, said that number could rise to 15. Steven C. Renn, a managing director of Health Care Investment Analysts in Baltimore, estimated that the eight sales could generate $70 million to $90 million.
Galen has also slashed prices at eight hospitals in Louisville and San Antonio, as part of Mr. Pollard's strategy of reversing a 15-month decline in hospital revenues by taking business "from someone else."
And the new emphasis on community roots is Galen's attempt to ready itself to meld into regional bidding groups that could emerge from the proposals for managed competition. Old Battles Being Fought
Despite the efforts of Galen and Humana to give themselves new identities and stronger competitive positions, they are still fighting old battles in court over the way Humana conducted its business. Inquiries into Humana's hard-driving practices also dog the successor companies.
Pricing is the issue in most of those cases. State insurance officials in Florida and Texas said they were investigating complaints that Humana had charged patients improperly. The United States Attorney's office in Las Vegas, Nev., has also questioned doctors about the chain.
The House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight is investigating prices that hospitals, including Humana's, charged Medicare patients for various services, such as a $7 fee for a Tylenol tablet. Mr. Pollard of Galen said such charges had to pay for overhead, administration and "getting the medicine delivered to the patient."
Not all hospitals charged as much as Humana's did. A General Accounting Office report, for example, said prices were usually higher at for-profit hospitals.
"Humana was the most aggressive group, on the leading edge of cost enhancement," said Mr. Johnson of Mercer. "They have a computer program that shows hospitals how to bill and how to play games with D.R.G.'s," the fees insurers pay for each illness.
Criticism of the company generally centered on business practices, not quality of care. But complaints about pricing took different forms.
Charles Danielian, a Pompano Beach, Fla., building materials salesman, said his wife had been charged $1,000 as her "20 percent" share of routine outpatient surgery at Humana's Cypress Hospital that cost "just under $5,000." When he questioned the amount, he said, he got an invoice showing the Humana health plan had paid a discounted price of only $1,221 to the hospital, which meant he was being asked to pay far more than 20 percent of the actual charges. Suits Are Filed
Patients like Mr. Danielian who say they were charged improperly have filed class action lawsuits seeking hundreds of millions of dollars for damages under Federal pension and antiracketeering laws. Humana denies the charges. It contends that the question was "a simple issue of insurance policy interpretation." None of these cases has gone to trial.
Humana executives said the payments rules were clearly stated in the contracts. But they said the billing was changed after bad publicity and laws in several states banning the practice. The patient's share is now based on actual charges.
Mr. Jones, Humana's chairman, said the company had "followed the letter" of the insurance policies and had offered to repay those who had paid more than the usual amount. But Mr. Danielian in Pompano Beach said he had had no such offers and was still paying his Humana bill in installments. Humana Defends Actions
American Medical International, another hospital chain, quickly settled similar charges brought by the Florida Insurance Department. But Humana did not settle, and Mr. Jones said the company had not acted improperly. "We've made plenty of mistakes," he said. "We've never done anything dishonorable."
In another legal action, a jury in a Nevada state court awarded $9.3 million to Dr. George Mead Hammeter, who had accused Humana of abusing his rights by trying to silence him after he wrote to fellow doctors in 1989 accusing the company of violating a health-cost-containment law. Humana has appealed to the Nevada Supreme Court, seeking to overturn the award.
One effect of spinning off Humana hospitals into the new Galen corporate entity is clear: Mr. Jones said friction with doctors was no longer a Humana problem. He said that 30,000 physicians were under contract to Humana H.M.O.'s and medical networks and that more than 90 percent regularly renewed their contracts.
If doctors are upset, Mr. Jones said, "they're angry at Galen, not Humana."

Clayton County Police Department spokeswoman Lt. Rebecca Brown says the police car was one of three broken into at the same apartment complex. Brown says the thieves tore open a door to get into the trunk. Brown says the two submachine guns were taken from the trunk in the Thursday night theft.
She says the other two cars were a Clayton County Sheriff's Office patrol car and a civilian car. What was taken from those cars was not released.
