I soloed the route in reverse this past Sunday (skipped T-bolt due to get off the moraine before dark) as a car-to-car from Glacier Lodge. Have also done this as a car-to-car from S Lake. I'm up in the air as to which one is better.
The approach to the Swiss Arete is long, but the route itself goes quickly. The chimney on N Pal is easy locate and uneventful. You can access the notch between N Pal and Starlight by dropping into the short chimney then downclimbing a lieback crack. It's easy climbing back up to the ridge on the right side. After Starlight I descended Underhill Couloir, which is silty and loose Secor "class 4". Use caution if there are other people around. It's a direct route to the glacier.
As mentioned in the route description it's easy to lose the trail back to Sam Mack once darkness falls. I ended up bushwhacking my way down to the inlet of Third Lake, listening for the running water. In the end it wasn't too bad.

|Wow nice additional info and photos Michelle! Doing it in reverse looks fun, especially since you get to climb the Swiss Arete on Sill if you go that way!

|Sorry, Cory. Just saw this post. Thanks! The Swiss Arete is definitely more entertaining than the SW chute on T-bolt.

We did this as a party of 3 in about 5 hours from Winchell (sp?) col to Sill. We did two 30m raps and belayed for one 25m pitch. We soloed the rest of it. We did not tag Sill as our ice tools were buzzing in the storm. The best climbing is almost always right on the arête, where most of the towers that lOok scary bcome easily downclimbable.
I would bring a superlight rope, Camalots from .4 to #1, and a few nuts. If you are not OK soloing 5.6 or so, don't do this route-- you will literally spend 3 days on it. If you can solo 5.8 then ditch the gear and just bring a rope...or ditch the rope and downclimb the raps (maybe 5.5 or so).
A great route and the OP's beta is good.

Did this route as a party of two on Saturday June 22, 2013. Friday we hiked in and camped on the moraine as close to Underhill couloir as we could get. We climbed Underhill couloir and did the entire traverse from Thunderbolt to Sill on Saturday. We soloed most of the route, rapped 5 or 6 times, and only belayed one pitch on North Pal. Descended the north couloir on Sill and hiked over the glacier to back to base camp. Hiked out Sunday. Great!
Bershrunds are big. U notch and V notch look icy.

Adding to schilfes comment, we completed the route camp to camp in 13 hours, perfect weather, route finding did not end up being overly difficult, we found underhill to starlight to take a lot longer than we expected, about an hour and a half.
We used steph abegg's beta on the route and found it very helpful

|If you're soloing this just bring 30m rope for raps. Easy to find 4th class scramble to right of chimney when descending U-Notch. I only rapped off of the 2 summit blocks and across the gap between Starlight and North Palisade and felt the down climbs were all quite reasonable. Could probably get away with 20m.

Officials: Shipman Fire near Kearny 47 percent contained
PHOENIX — A fire burning about 70 miles southeast of Phoenix has charred over 500 acres and has destroyed one home so far.
The Shipman Fire has been burning for almost three days, but is now 47 percent contained as of Wednesday night.
Residents near Kearney were evacuated Monday after a wildfire moved close to their homes but about 100 of the 200 homes have been cleared for re-occupancy.
Twenty more homes were evacuated due to the size of the fire.
No injuries have been reported, but at least three structures have burned, with one home being destroyed.
According to Pinal County officials, the Shipman Fire may have been sparked near the San Pedro River.
Jonetta Trued of the Eastern Arizona Incident Management Team said they have a full line of resources battling the fire.
Trued also said she remains optimistic the fire won't spread and that people could soon return to their homes.
The American Red Cross also said 25 people stayed Monday night in a shelter set up in an elementary school in Kearny.
Steve Henry, chief deputy with the Pinal County Sheriff's Office, said the wildfire began burning through salt cedar trees along the river bed and sending embers floating into Kearney.
Arizona Department of Transportation officials closed five miles of State Route 177 near Kearny for a time but that was reopened at 11:30 p.m. on Monday.
Kearny is located east of Florence, Ariz., and south of Globe, Ariz.

I've noticed a minor issue with the plugin, not quite sure if it's a bug or a feature.
When an input error message is displayed at the top of the form, the message is wrapped not just in the error message div, as one might expect, but also in the required field div. As far as I can tell, this isn't optional, it appears to be hardcoded in the plugin's si-contact-form-display.php file.
For most people, this probably doesn't cause any issues, as the error message CSS can override whatever's in the required field CSS, but for anyone specifying relative font sizes in both, well, it sort of implodes. ;)
I was able to "fix" the issue by hacking the form display file, but that's obviously not an ideal solution, as it will have to be re-fixed whenever there's an update.
Would love to see a real fix for this issue if it's a bug, or the additional div made optional, if it's intended as a feature.

Digger Robert William Richardson's tale of Vietnam War action shot down
- From: Sunday Herald Sun
- March 16, 2014
A VIETNAM veteran and Order of Australia Medal recipient whose recollections of storming Viet Cong tunnels appeared on the Australian Government's official online history of the war has been branded a phony by his fellow servicemen.
The Department of Veterans' Affairs stripped three video interviews with Robert William Richardson from its war commemoration website, Australia and the Vietnam War, after being contacted by the Herald Sun.
"In cases where serious concerns are raised about material on our website we remove it until the completion of an investigation," spokesman Shane Haiduk said.
Veterans of Operation Crimp want the "false history" expunged from the record permanently, saying Mr Richardson was a clerk with a bad record who "never stepped outside the wire".
Mr Richardson conceded to the Herald Sun his recollections were faulty and that he did not take part in the battle.
"I do not stand by my testimony as being 100 per cent accurate. I was not on Operation Crimp," he admitted.
"If my recollections were incorrect — I apologise unequivocally and without reservation to anyone who may have been offended by my statements as that would never have been my intention, as I have always held my comrades ... in the highest regard."
Mr Richardson was awarded an OAM "for service to the welfare of veterans and their families, and to the community" in 2002.
Despite receiving a full gold card veterans pension after being assessed as being totally and permanently incapacitated, and saying he suffers post-traumatic stress disorder, early dementia and long term memory loss, Richardson is a Justice of the Peace and the present secretary of the Victorian branches of both the Royal Australian Regiment Corporation and the 1RAR Association.
He was among the first Australian soldiers to see active service in Vietnam as a Lance Corporal in the 1st battalion, Royal Australian Regiment.
But his claims to have gone on patrols and helped identify the dead during an operation to flush out an underground command post and tunnels used by the Viet Cong have been called into question by other veterans.
One angry veteran told the Herald Sun the Department of Veterans Affairs had refused to take the offending material off its website a year ago despite then agreeing Mr Richardson had "stretched the truth".
War records show Mr Richardson was drummed out of the army in 1969 — "Retention in the military forces not being in the interest of those forces" — after being fined $400 and $50 costs in a criminal court for "obtaining goods under false pretence".
Shortly after being sent to Vietnam Mr Richardson was busted from corporal to private for going AWOL and drinking while on duty a month and a half before being shipped overseas.
Although Mr Richardson told a newspaper in 1980 that he served 15 months in Vietnam, his record of service shows he spent a year and 14 days there between May 1965 and June 1966.
Speaking about patrols in his online interview, Richardson says his first lasted four days and that one 10-day patrol covered about 40km, with a forward scout about 30m out in front most of the time. He also talks about carrying two water canteens and travelling lighter than riflemen as he could place some of his equipment in a vehicle.
Other 1 RAR veterans told the Herald Sun that patrols were at least seven days and that a 10-day patrol would be unusual and that only in rubber plantations would a scout be 30m ahead as "in the jungle you were lucky to see 3m in front of you".
Recalling Operation Crimp, Mr Richardson said it was "our hardest operation so far on our tour and we knew little about the area. It was just going to be another patrol" and that the "(Viet Cong) ambushed us and caught us by surprise … we lost five dead and a lot wounded."
Veterans of the battle said the battalion had flown direct from Operation Maurder in the Mekong Delta to the Cu Chi tunnels in the Ho Bo Woods without returning to base specifically to surprise the Viet Cong stationed in the system's underground tunnels and command bunker.
"Operation Crimp caught the Viet Cong by total surprise, we knew they were there and dug in," one veteran said. "The battalion lost 8 dead and 30 wounded, with 128 Viet Cong dead confirmed and 190 probables."
In his 1980 interview, Mr Richardson described helping identify the dead on the battlefield as "a bastard of a job", claimed US paratroopers from the 173 Airborne Brigade, with whom they were fighting, wouldn't go in ahead of 1 RAR as "we" had such a good reputation, and that the regiment was left non-operational for several days after being mistakenly sprayed by an American C130 plane during Operation Crimp.
"That is one operation I will not forget," he recalled. "I reckon it was the beginning of all my troubles. We got sprayed by the American C130. They said it was a mistake. I have suffered nausea and been treated for a skin rash ever since. Now they are testing for chemical poisoning."
Veterans say the claims are fanciful and an insult to the US paratroopers, with pay book entries signed by Mr Richardson showing he was 70km away at the time of the battle.
Mr Richardson said he did not dispute the claims of his fellow veterans. He said he had gone on one patrol after "pestering" the company commander and that the regiment was sprayed at their base camp with Malathion, an insecticide of low human toxicity, and after being transferred to battalion headquarters had visited the casualty clearing station in another area to check on deaths and casualties.
"At the time I was interviewed, I was a rather 'mentally disturbed cookie'," he said. "I was told that I was selected for interview from a company clerk's perspective. I advised the interview team that my recollections would be vague as on my return to Australia from Vietnam, my memory of Vietnam service was mostly gone and I also had no memory of pre-Vietnam including my childhood or marriage. This was confirmed earlier by a DVA appointed psychiatrist. I was requested to do the best that I could even though my recollections could be from information conveyed to me by company members and reports typed for my Company Commander."
Mr Haiduk said extensive efforts were made to ensure that the information on the department's website was complete, accurate and historically verifiable, including historical research using the Official War Histories, Unit Diaries, AWM collection items, and a range of secondary historical sources.
"We have commenced an investigation into the matters you have raised," he said. "We would encourage anyone with concerns about the accuracy of the video on our website to contact the Department directly. We note that the claims made are relying of differing recollections after close to 50 years."Originally published as Digger's Vietnam tale shot down

These are very clever sales people. They get you all involved in talking about howI can win $1,000. and we go all through the books and I am telling them that I amnot a reader of any books. But of course to win the $1,000 when they get to the endof the sales pitch they start telling me how all I need to do is to receive the books. FinallyI tell them to send me information and then I will decide. They had me so confused I told them ok. After talking to them and checking out what it was going to cost me. I reallyflipped out...to win the $1,000 shopping spree in will end of costing me around $800.I have tried calling them to cancell books but got no where. Hope this will help others who have had to deal with this type of scam.

Comment posted Fife Council joins Aberdeenshire in asking for suspension of wind farm applications by Robert Wakeham.
And as a side benefit the carrying, sawing and chopping of wood is probably quite good exercise compared to pressing a button or setting a switch.
Robert Wakeham also commented
- Doc: I've been wondering whether Malcolm should be invoiced for the time it takes to educate him about matters that most people seem to be able to comprehend fairly easily, but there seems to be an element of wilful misinformation driven by some fairly strong prejudices. And as – when challenged on these – Malcolm gets a bit shirty I suppose it's best to leave well alone, and just hope that some of the reasoned argument does eventually sink in.
- Malcolm: You need to get out more, but these days the internet affords you the opportunity of finding out for yourself how tunnels have, in other parts of the world, provided an all-weather answer to the Dunoon-Gourock type of problem.
- If superconnectors can help even out the supply from intermittent renewable power sources all to the well and good.
- Malcolm – 'Renewables will always need 100% backup from power stations' – rather a misleading claim, given that the variability of the ever increasing amount of electricity from wind power makes the development of mass energy storage ever more pressing.
The Cruachan and Foyers pumped storage stations are just a 'drop in the ocean' compared with what's needed, but I bet there'll be other 'green' techniques developed in the reasonably near future – hydrogen generation seems to be a frequently mooted idea – and your claim surely has less credibility in relation to tidestream and hydro power.
- Some of us would like to get back to the 'real and highly important subject' before you discover General Franco as the answer to practically everything, Malcolm.

- With Heb Isles in for repairs, CalMac charters replacement vessel to reduce underprovision for Islay
Scott Smith – you give the impression that you have advance knowledge of future vessel deployments, but you get your dates, boats and places jumbled up. Any chance you could clarify these, please?
- With Heb Isles in for repairs, CalMac charters replacement vessel to reduce underprovision for Islay
A movable mezzanine deck that can't be repaired unless the ship is dry docked?
Sounds a bit like a car that needs dismantling before the oil can be changed. I wonder if someone specified some really exotic features on that mezzanine deck that no commercial ship owner in their right mind would dream up in their worst nightmare – but which the ship builder was only too happy to install, if the price was right?
- With Heb Isles in for repairs, CalMac charters replacement vessel to reduce underprovision for Islay
The comments on this particular thread (at least, those that are relevant and not just trying to make everything political) can be read as reflecting wider concerns, and it's now being reported in the newspapers that the seriously inadequate response of Calmac when the Hebridean Isles had to be withdrawn from service for repairs in the middle of the summer tourist season is going to be reviewed at a meeting in Islay in October, reportedly to be hosted by our MSP, to hold Calmac, Transport Scotland and the Government to account.
Hopefully they'll have the sense to leave the bullshit on the mainland.
- With Heb Isles in for repairs, CalMac charters replacement vessel to reduce underprovision for Islay
The BBC Scottish News website today has a lengthy item about Calmac's trials and tribulations with the good ship Isle of Arran.
However, it's really only padding out the previously known facts as deemed suitable for release by Calmac, and leaves the details of the boat's problems unexplained. It's basically a case of 'bear with us, there'll be jam tomorrow'.
Someone needs to spell out to the Calmac management – and our Holyrood politicians – that if you drive an old banger that wouldn't pass its MOT and gave the police some feeble excuse about not being able to find spare parts you'd wind up in court.
The BBC could at least have asked Calmac to explain what sort of problems were making the boat more susceptible to weather cancellations – and as to the Finlaggan running about with a broken mezzanine deck and the Heb Isles crashing into Kennacraig pier, maybe the BBC consider these matters to be unworthy of reporting, let alone investigation.
- With Heb Isles in for repairs, CalMac charters replacement vessel to reduce underprovision for Islay

We paid the $799 in January of 2006. We did not receive any offers or calls or anything else from this company for months, so in July I decided to call the company and inquire why nothing was happening and why I had not heard from them...the girl who answered the phone gave me all sorts of poor excuses so I asked to speak with the manager/supervisor. I was transferred to a woman, I want to say that her name was Chris or Deb who stated that she was the owner of the company and that she sympathized with the fact that I had lost $20,000 buying the timeshare plus the $800+ that I was spending on maintenance plus the $799 that I paid them to sell it for me. I told her that they really needed to sell it as I was drowning in debt and both my husband and I had just been laid off from our jobs and could not afford to feed our family. She stated that she was sorry and that she had seen many similar cases. She suggested that I lower the price, which I did.
I once again lowered my price in August of 2006 and then again in November of 2006. At this point I was down to $4500 asking price.Then in December of 2006, my husband recieved a call from them saying that they had a buyer for $2500. We told them that we would only go as low as $3000. The man agreed and we proceed to go through the process of working with a woman named Deb (coincidence?) from a title company named timeshare-title.com to do our closing. This was in the beginning of December 2006. After a few weeks I had not heard anything, even though I had now stupidly sent them a copy of my deed and signed consent forms for title searches, etc...On Dec. 18, I e-mailed Deb to inquire why this was taking so long to close on a $3000 cash deal. She e-mailed me back with all of this mumbo jumbo about everyone being in different states and her not being in the same county in Florida as where the deed was recorded...blah...blah...blah. This was not the first time I had bought or sold real estate, etc...Then in the beginning of January, Deb from the title company forwarded me an e-mail from the buyer stating that something had come up and he was no longer interested in the deal. VERY CONVENIENT. I believe all of this was set up by the owner/manager or whoever she was of this company whose website was www.timesharesquicksale.com, but whom whenever I received an e-mail from them signed it Timeshares Quick Sales International, and whom I just found out charged my credit card under the name Timesharesbyowner.
In the time since I have bought my timeshare I have been harrassed through the mail, through e-mails, on my home phone, they even managed to get my cell phone number by these so-called timeshare resale companies. They all give the same spiel and they all of course will sell it right away becuase there are so many people looking for a timeshare to buy...BullS***...and of course they all want money up front. The only reason that I am even writing this now is because I had recently recievd an e-mail in my spam folder from one of these type of companies. I do not know if they are legit or not but I was curious to see what they had to say so I responded and gave them my number to call me. A gentleman did call and I learned some more interesting facts about this giant scam world...it seems that there are quite a few of these types of companies out there who will take peoples money and then change disappear without providing the service they were promised. I was promised that for the $799 that I paid they would advertise my timeshare for as long as need be to sell it. What's more is that these companies not only disappear with your money but they actually don't disappear they just change the name of their companies and do this again to someone else, maybe even the same people they ripped off before, who are so desperate to sell our timeshares so that we can stop throwing our hard-earned dollars out the window for maintenace and tax fees on these stupid timeshares.
He also informed me that they also do these little things like tell you that they have a buyer and then at the last minute soimething happens and the deal falls through. I was so intrigued that I went online to pull up the ad for my TS and guess what, the web address was no longer valid, e-mail was no longer valid, and when I tried to call the phone number I had for them it was no longer in service. I was fuming mad!!! I am now working with my credit card company to try and get my money back. People beware of these scams...the resorts that sell the timeshares are scamming you and so are
?most? of these resale companies. I learned the hard way and so did many others. Hopefully there is someone out there who will read this...I know it's long, but I had to say my piece...and try to help all of us little people that let ourselves get rooked by this million and billion dollar industries. Guess what folks, rich people...people with money...don't buy timeshares...just us poor middle class schmucks who want something better for our families.

Hi there,
I was using your testimonial widget on a development site and loving it. However, I just updated it and now I have a problem with it.
On my home page, the widget display the whole list of my testimonials instead of just one in a massive list, see:
For inside pages the widget works perfectly, for example see:
This was working prior to the update so maybe you can advise on what may have changed during the update to cause this behaviour.
I'm a bit worried about this as we are set to go live on Monday. Is there somewhere I can perhaps download the old version from as I know this was working if we cant fix the issue.
Many thanks


text: I installed this on a test site and when I went to the settings I was confronted with a white screen, nothing more. This was the case in Firefox, Opera and Google+. I have deactivated it to search for alternatives but would like to know if there is a way to fix it. Thank you

Monopoly Junior gets a new look this year complete with four new game tokens based on the favorite classic tokens before they grew up, including Scottie Dog, cat, battleship, and racecar. Just like the classic Monopoly game, young players move around the board to buy fun properties, such as the ice cream parlor, the zoo, the swimming pool, and more. Buying properties, paying rent, and collecting Chance card bonuses are handled with single banknotes, making transactions fast and easy. When one player goes bankrupt, the game is over. The other players count their money, and the player with the most money wins.
Monopoly Junior comes with a game board, four tokens, 20 Chance cards, 48 sold signs, 90 $1 banknotes, four character cards, and a die. The game is for two to four players.
Monopoly Junior is a great way to introduce young kids to the classic game of Monopoly. We like that this version only uses $1 bills to make it an easier and faster game to play. It also helps young kids with basic math skills.
Monopoly Junior is for ages 5 and up.
The game also comes with advanced rules of play for slightly older players who are ready for more of a challenge.

I recently got a sued Macro lens ( 105mm).I see a ring at the bottom of the lens closest to the camera that lists 32 to 2.8 mm in two rows one smaller print that can be rotated but only seems to work at 32. What is this for and how can I adjust it?Thanks

You apparently have not owned a lens with an aperture ring? You have to set the aperture ring to f/32 (lock it there) and control it with the camera's control wheel. The f/stops (apertures) available to you range from f/2.8 to f/32. If you use something other than Program Mode you will see what I mean.Some digital bodies allow you to change a menu setting to enable you to use the aperture ring to set the f/stop (not sure if the d7000 will) like the older cameras for which they were built.

When Nikon first introduced their AF lenses all of them had aperture rings, just like their manual focus lenses. In 2000 Nikon introduced their first G (non-aperture ring) lens, the AF 70-300mm f4-5.6G. Since then Nikon has been converting some of their older lenses to the new G designs and now all new lens designs are G. The Tilt/Shift lenses still have aperture rings however. Nikon still makes a few of the older lenses like the AFS 17-35mm f2.8 and the AF 80-400mm VR lens with an aperture ring. Len

In the "old days" everything was manual. You set the speed/fstop on the camera and the aperture on the lens since aperture is actually a lens function, where speed is a camera/shutter function. In a way, it all made much more sense.

>What was the purpose of the aperture ring?Back in the film days that's how you changed your lens aperture, whether the camera was manual or auto. It's a hold over that is slowly being replaced with G lenses.

Living It Up in Mexico City: the Condesa DF Hotel
December 7, 2005
By: Guest Writer
By Ellen Whitman
On a quiet and leafy corner of one of Mexico City's trendiest colonias, the Condesa DF hotel manages to satisfy the most unabashed hipsters, design aficionados, discerning foodies, and even bargain shoppers ($150/night for a basic room). Ian Schraeger-like in feel, this four story triangular hotel is geographically and emotionally focused on its central courtyard, home to its impressive Miami Beach meets Soho restaurant and bar. Whether it be a working lunch, a leisurely Sunday brunch or a last call martini, it is always a scene to be seen in. But unlike so many trendy eateries, the cuisine is just as hot as the clientele; the creative sushi and decadent desserts are of particular note. Stick to the wine list however, as the cocktails are pricey and often disappointing. The service can also be a little spotty, but everyone is so eager to please little oversights are easily forgiven. Thursday through Saturday, a subterranean nightclub continues into the wee hours as does the tropical rooftop bar. As such, Condesa DF is not a hotel for the kiddies, nor is it for those seeking a subdued retreat even if the minimalist white guest rooms do all have sumptuous bed linens, flat screen televisions and iPods. Better to enjoy all that luxury after stumbling back from the beautiful circus of Condesa DF's nighttime offerings.

Upscale Shopping in Bangkok: H1
A single street in Bangkok-- previously a non-descript alley off Sukhumvit Road-- is now the capital of chic. At the heart of Thonglor's scene (and its style revolution) is H1, a Modernist glass mini-mall, designed by architect Duangrit Bunnag. Easily accessible by the newly expanded underground system, the H1 complex is home to stylish, locally-owned boutiques and one of Bangkok's hottest tables: To Die For. Owned by designer Bhanu Inkawat, the restaurant has a contemporary menu that includes items like vodka and caviar pasta (a little odd, but the trendy crowd raves....) Another draw is the eclectic lifestyle store Geo, stashed with everything from gardening tools to handmade picture frames. The best time to shop is after sunset, when H1 is illuminated with lots of lights.

Through couple of years, every home is in need of renovation. Especially if you are a smoker, the walls will be darkened over a period of time. Some household objects will not be in use in a couple of years. These are all the things one person must be aware of when they finally reach that point in life when they must move out of their parent's home. Many times people are not even aware of how much responsibility comes with owning or renting a place where they need to live. If a person lives in a house, they should be aware of roof problems or waterproofing basements or and many other things that fit into that category. Thinking that maintaining the house is easy is ludicrous! People should pay attention to every corner of their house in order for it to function properly. Doing the regular check-ups and repairing things in time will ensure in the future safer all well-functioning home.
Everyone can however upgrade a home if needed. Let's say you live in a beautiful country such as California, where the weather is generally nice but occasional rain and weather damage is inevitable. So the room that a person wants to upgrade or change, they should call the Elite Remodeling of Carlsbad to help with the upgrading or remodeling process. For example walls: walls should annually be repainted so that the beauty of the walls stay the same.
Another thing a person must put to mind is contacting the good people for the job they need. You can't just call anyone to do the repairs or paint job if they are not skilled enough for that type of work. This brings bigger money loss than having to pay more money on a more elite service that will do a great job and you won't be in need of seeing them for next couple of years. Too bad that many people don't realize this so they go off and frequently get cheaper services and spend more money than they should. Poor investments such as these just put you way more in debt and you don't get much out of cheap services. You don't save money – you just delay the process of spending money later on. Having more upgrades on your home is beneficial, but there should be a fine line between needed upgrades and upgrades only because of the beauty of it. Both reasons are completely fine for well-functioning, nice looking homes. If a person has a garage, but does not own a vehicle, they should convert that garage to a working space or additional room.
Using up the space is very important, as these methods of converting and adding are called home additions. There are many types of home additions. When thinking about renovating a home, many options come to mind, especially if we have more money – there are more options in renovation and adding. Having a right group of technicians and expert people who know what they are doing in these situations come in handy, so don't be shy in spending a bit more money on a better service than going cheap.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Property employees are unqualified for their titles and position responsibilities. Apparently that's not important since the Village is more an Assisted Living/Senior Day Care than an adult apartment community. Lease and property rules are broken regularly and over looked. This is a Non Smoking property and publicly advertised as such including a huge banner advertisement at the property entrance. Visitors and residents are spotted smoking regularly. Pets are allowed but owners don't clean up properly after them even in the inside hallways. Elderly seniors wander the hallways. Front door items and packages disappeared from doorways. Employees provide unauthorized & unlicensed services to favored residents such as dispensing medications, shots, feeding etc. New residents are encouraged to attend events on the what looks like impressive monthly social event calendar but the regulars are not quick to welcome newbies. Residents are quite clicky, similar to a bunch of children. The property may look nice in photos and from the outside but upkeep has gone downhill. Employees have been let go to save money therefore pools, landscaping, security, equipment, furnishings and property in general has become worn and dirty. The electronic gates are forever breaking down, the water is turned off frequently, property lights cease working, jacuzzis are always breaking and on one jacuzzi only half the jets work when it's not closed down. The fire alarms sounded much too often, and there was seemingly no real concern to educate proper mandatory evacuation procedures for residents. Tenants use BBQ grills on patios which is disallowed and unsafe. The parking lot is a joke. Assigned parking is not free and there are insufficiant spaces for the number of residents with autos. Property personnel must be forced to act on dealing with parking issues such as people parking in wrong spaces, etc. When contacting the office when these problems occur residents are instructed to leave a note on the vehicle asking it be moved! Parking space charges are ridiculous at $10 uncovered, $20 covered PER MONTH. Note that not everyone pays for parking (not the favorites). Same with the Storage closets. Guests have been known to park across from the property, at the shopping center next door or down Woodland Parkway! Maintenance personnel are overworked and unqualified. They are unable to properly assess or fix annoying sounds, leaks in pipes, pest nuisances-perhaps they have problems dealing with the office or property owners (who obviously do not care about customer service). Three residents can approach the office or maintenance and be told three very different excuses! Every time the power or phones go out the front door codes have to be re-set or they don't work. Regarding safety pet owners are put on the first floor only (supposedly) while handicapped residents are on upper floors, reliant on stairs or elevators in case of emergency. There are insufficient number of Handicapped parking spaces on property.
The most frustrating is how we were mislead during the amazing tour of the property. We asked about utilities and were misquoted. Wait until after you move in (what an unorganized hassle that experience was!) and receive your first water/sewer/trash bill! Also beware of a hefty rent increase at the end of your lease. The renewal letter arrives no sooner than 45 days prior to the lease termination date. We also inquired about lease terms and average rental increase during our tour and we were again misquoted. Not only will your rent be unfairly increased without reasonable explanation but there is NO negotiation. Especially beware if you move to this property on one of the "Special Move In Rates"! No 2 apartments pay the same rent for the same size or location apartment. There are an increasing number of HUD voucher residents who we believe contribute to the decline of the quality of what began as a very nice senior community.
Our move in experience was a nightmare in that nothing was ready when we arrived with a packed moving van. We were given wrong keys, wrong gate opener, we were assigned to the wrong parking space, an issue which took months to resolve. The condition of the apartment was not acceptable-horrible messy half-a**ed paint job, dirty windows & screens, dirty carpet with spots that continued to appear and were difficult to clean (we were told a month after moving in it would cost us $35 to clean the carpets!), the toilet seat was broken, cabinets had not been cleaned, dog doody stains were on the patio, we had bugs in our kitchen, there is a spider infestation and mice roam the property. The day we moved in we inquired about a Move In checklist we were used to completing at move in but were told this property doesn't do that. Again mislead.
When we moved out we were pressured to vacate ASAP so new tenants could move in! Beware that you will be shocked at what, if anything you will received refunded from any deposit. The charges are outrageous and unfair for cleaning service (on site property employees and maintenance do the property's own cleaning, painting, repairs etc. NOT professional hire), painting (where it wasn't even necessary), alleged carpet replacement (no proof this was done or even necessary if the carpet had been properly cleaned in the first place!). This property pinches pennies cutting every corner possible in ways tenants continue to suffer from. Tenants are continually paying for poor service. Tenants are over charged unfairly (with no visible proof of metering) for water including use of heated water!! We should have seen early warning signs and moved out sooner than we did. The turnover alone was a tell-tale sign something is amiss at Woodland Village!
Now that we are gone we are so much happier at another senior community. Don't let Woodland Village tell you their property is the best quality for your money, it's another of their misconceptions. Woodland has potential if only they were properly managed, and attracted better quality residents (their screening process is a joke-they let anybody move in there!)

On the 5th and 6th of December, the 39th EMU General Assembly and Management Capacity Building Seminar for National Associations of Music and Culture Schools, 'EU Projects and Collaboration', took place in Berlin in the premises of the Berlin University of Arts.

One of the participants, Mr. Anastase Demetriades, director of the Conservatoire de l'Ouest-Vaudois (COV) in the French-speaking Switzerland, offered to organize and host the same EMU seminar in the English language, for teachers and directors of all Swiss music schools. This second seminar took place from 31 October to 2 November 2014 in one of the sites of the COV, the beautiful Villa Thomas, directly at the Lake of Geneva. (http://www.covaud.ch/)
32 persons, international speakers and music school directors and teachers from the cantons of Vaud, Geneva, Bern and Lucerne, met and exchanged on the areas of group pedagogy, net pedagogy, early childhood music education, music education for children with special needs, for exceptionally talented children and for elderly people.
The aim of the seminar was fully achieved : to enhance dialogue on the development of music schools and to reinforce exchange of knowledge and synergies between local, regional, national and and international levels of music education.The European overview was a very appreciated added value to the Swiss context, thanks to the speakers, all renowned international specialists with hands-on experience in their fields.
A festive and friendly reception was offered by the municipal council in the Castle of Nyon, in presence of local politicians and presidents of the cantonal and the Swiss associations of music schools. The speeches highlighted the position of music schools as competence centres and cultural actors and the vital importance of public support to music education.
The hospitality of COV and Nyon, the idyllic setting of the seminar and the inspiring atmosphere of the seminar are depicted by the pictures.

EMU meeting in Serbia on the 3rd and 4th of October
On the 3rd and 4th of October 2014 a meeting with the EMU board was held in Belgrade - Serbia. For all members of the board it was their first time in Belgrade and thanks to the wonderful organisation of the Association of Music and Ballet schools in Serbia, all members got a great oppertunity to get to know the capital city of Serbia and its culture.
Even though the EMU meeting had a tight schedule, the members were able to meet a lot of colleagues. It was very fruitful, a versatile and abundant music programme, culinary discoveries, a city tour and a lot of friendly professional contacts and discussions.
The Belgrade meeting will remain an important milestone on EMU's way to the future. The board is convinced that more co-operation in the Balkan area could lead to more intense versatile and efficient coöperation inside the EMU. Everyone hopes the that future contacts and projects will enable more EMU members to get acquainted with Serbia's pedagogical tradition and its results. As Serbia can be proud of the music education, the teachers and students.

The vast majority of carbonated beverages are far from healthy, despite their ubiquity. Something about that sweet bubbliness just keeps people coming back. But recently, a Silicon Valley entrpreneur and an exec from Ben & Jerry's teamed up to create a soda that's not only healthy but also good for the planet. Zota Soda is organic green tea flavored in a variety of ways, with a wee bit of cane juice as sweetener – that means no high fructose corn syrup – and nothing artificial. The company website has more. (Industry article here)
Healthy Soda? Try Zota
One response
Zota tastes great! It contains almost 2 cups of green tea per bottle and has no artificial sweeteners or preservatives. A great organic product!

John Calipari helping to raise money for Louisiana flood victims
It's easy to be critical of John Calipari.
You don't have to be a Louisville fan to know all the jokes by now. He cheated at UMass. He cheated at Memphis. He's had two Final Fours vacated. Teflon John. Yada yada yada.
I get it. Negativity comes with success, particularly for someone who is as brash about his success as Coach Cal is.
But even Cal's harshest critics cannot begrudge the work he does — can get his players to do — for charity and how well he can harness the power of Big Blue Nation to make a tangible difference. Remember the 'Hoops for Haiti' telethon that raised more than $1 million to help earthquake victims back in 2010? Or the hundreds of thousands of dollars he raised for Hurricane Sandy relief? Or when his fantasy camps generated more than $1 million in charitable donations?
And should I mention the amount of times that stories of Kentucky players befriending sick kids or visiting children's hospitals?
The cynic in me could say that all of this is for branding, helping ensure his players are image-conscious and aware of the sponsorship opportunities that come with being a likable, relatable and humble athlete. There's probably some truth to that.
But do you think the kids that get visits from their Big Blue heroes care? Do you think it matters to the charities that get seven-figure checks to help with disaster relief?
I say all that to say this: During a press conference on Thursday morning, Cal had this to say, via SEC Country:
Calipari said former UK star Anthony Davis (currently of the New Orleans Pelicans) told Calipari, "Coach, you gotta do something" for Baton Rouge flood victims. Davis is out of the country but will try to get back for Sunday's softball game to help. His 2012 title teammates, Terrence Jones and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, were not previously on the celeb list for Sunday but will be there.
Calipari has decided to donate all proceeds from Sunday's alumni/celebrity softball game will go to the Baton Rouge flood-relief fund, through Red Cross. "So what I'm asking you to do is buy these tickets." They're $5 apiece. The previously raised funds will still go to the other designated charities, like each year.
For those so inclined, you can donate to the flooding fund by texting "GIVE" to 859-955-8173.
Vermont women cancels game in North Carolina over HB2
The University of Vermont is the latest in a ever-growing line of organizations canceling events in North Carolina due to the controversial HB2 law.
The Catamounts will not be traveling to play the Tar Heels on Dec. 28th as previously scheduled.
"We strive very hard to create an inclusive climate for our students and staff in which they all can feel safe, respected, and valued," the school wrote in a statement. "It would be hard to fulfill these obligations while competing in a state with this law, which is contrary to our values as an athletic department and university."
"This decision was made in consultation with our coaches, the women's basketball team, and key university officials. We fully understand and sympathize with the impact that this decision may have on the North Carolina women's basketball schedule. However, we believe this decision is consistent with our values and the conversations with our coaches and student team members. These were the most important considerations."
Known as the "bathroom bill", HB2 is the law that requires transgender people to use the bathroom of the sex that they were born not the sex they identify with.
Earlier this year, Albany was forced to cancel a trip to Duke due to legislation in New York regarding visits to North Carolina. The NBA has taken the 2017 All-Star game from Charlotte, and the NCAA is heavily considering pulling NCAA tournament games from the state.
Interestingly, ACC commissioner John Swofford was very non-committal on the subject when asked yesterday.
Derek Willis won't be suspended for offseason citiation
John Calipari gave a press conference on Thursday morning and, for the first time since his arrest in June, the Kentucky head coach spoke about Derek Willis.
Willis, if you've forgotten, was found passed out in the street outside the open driver's side door of his car at 4:30 a.m. You can see video of the arrest here. Willis is very lucky he wasn't killed, and that he didn't kill anyone else trying to drive in that condition.
Cal said that Willis will not be suspended for any games, but "Derek knows he's under a different eye now than he was." He did not elaborate on what kind of punishment Willis will receive beyond that, saying that "I don't throw people under the bus."
To be honest, I'm a little surprised that Willis won't be forced to miss any games, but if we're being frank, sitting out an exhibition and Kentucky's opener sounds much more appealing than the kind of, ahem, 'conditioning drills' that Willis has likely spent the summer doing.
PODCAST: Boeheim's non-controversy and the coaches we don't want to fight
In today's podcast, I'm joined by Travis Hines to discuss stuff that has been in the news over the course of the last two weeks, specifically Jim Boeheim's comments about Carmelo Anthony and why it is a total non-controversy.
We also dive into why Boeheim's comments are forced to be taken out of context as well as Monte' Morris, 'Pancake' Thomas and which college basketball coaches we would least like to fight.
As always, you can subscribe to the podcast on either iTunes or Stitcher, and there's also a link to listen to this podcast below. Thanks for listening.
Cyclones add big man for 2017
Iowa State secured its first commitment Wednesday of what will be a pivotal class of forwards in 2017.
KeyShawn Faezell of Mississippi committed to Steve Prohm and the Cyclones, he announced Wednesday.
"After praying to God to lead me in the right path and talking with my dad," Faezell wrote, "I've decided to further my education and basketball career under coach Prohm at Iowa State University."
Faezell, a 6-foot-9 consensus top-150 forward in the 2017 class, joins wing Terrence Lewis as the first two members of a class that figures to number at least six for ISU. The addition of Faezell is key because ISU will be losing three members of its frontcourt it will likely be leaning on heavily in 2015-16 in Deonte Burton, Merrill Holden and Darrell Bowie. A 2016 big man, Cameron Lard, has also yet to enroll in classes this fall due to academic issues, making Faezell's commitment even more important should Lard be unable to get clearance.
"They need some people to come in and compete," Feazell told the Ames Tribune. "I think I fit in the program."
Prohm's teams dating back to his Murray State days have always been guard-oriented and guard-heavy, but beginning to stack the roster with quality big men will be key as he looks to continue the Cyclones' success in the Big 12, which includes a school-record five-straight NCAA tournament appearances.

text: 000 FXUS63 KMPX 282038 AFDMPX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN 338 PM CDT SUN AUG 28 2016 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday) Issued at 339 PM CDT Sun Aug 28 2016 Surface warm front extending into west central MN will continue lifting north as a cold front approaches from the eastern Dakotas. Warm air/moisture advection will ensue across northwest and north central MN tonight as the nocturnal low level jet strengthens. Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop in response over northwest MN, and track east and slightly southeast overnight. This activity should primarily affect the far northern part of the forecast area late tonight, and pivot into west central MN around daybreak Monday. As the front enters the forecast area during peak heating Monday, expect more widespread activity to spread east/southeast across the forecast area on Monday afternoon and evening. Prior to the frontal passage, highs will warm into the low/mid 80s. .LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday) Issued at 339 PM CDT Sun Aug 28 2016 The longer term concerns are timing of frontal passage across the cwa into Tuesday afternoon and the attendant severe weather threat. Initially the front sags into the northern cwa around 00z Tuesday. Instability and mid level lapse rates are quite unstable along the frontal boundary. The flow is rather weak and deeper shear is lagging the front. It appears the greatest threat/high pops will be over the northeast portion of the cwa into Monday evening. The severe weather threat looks marginal at the moment...but hail and strong winds will be a definite threat at least through the evening. If the front is slower than progged...we could see a heavy rain threat develop if convection becomes well established. PW`s increase to about 1.75 inches which is above the 90% percentile for the date. We will have to monitor this threat into he evening. The front exits the area Tuesday and a large dry ridge of high pressure settles over the Great Lakes region through the week. This should provide drier dewpoint air with cool nights and steadily warmer days through the end of the week. The deterministic models are in fair agreement of bringing in the next front later Saturday through Sunday. Forecast PW`s increase out ahead of the western conus trough and should surge out along the front then...providing another heavy rain threat to the area. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon) Issued at 1250 PM CDT Sun Aug 28 2016 Now that showers and thunderstorms have ended across central MN, expect dry conditions at sites until possibly overnight (at KAXN/STC). The broken/overcast deck with sub-1000ft ceilings will gradually scatter out this afternoon, but sct-bkn clouds circa 2000-3000ft will persist. Should see enough clearing this evening to bring a threat for another night with fog development, although winds will be a tad stronger so widespread dense fog is not expected. Will need to keep a close eye on WI sites (KRNH and KEAU) where the potential for LIFR or even VLIFR vsbys is not out of the question. Thunderstorms are expected to develop over northwest MN tonight, then drift east and possibly southeast overnight. There is still uncertainty regarding how far south these will track. Have included a Prob30 at KAXN and KSTC for the 08z-12z time frame for now. A front will pass across the area on Monday, so another round of showers and thunderstorms will be possible on Monday afternoon/eve. South/southeast winds will prevail through the period, with gusts possible during the afternoon time frames. KMSP... Sct-bkn borderline VFR clouds (2500-3000ft) will linger this afternoon. Should see enough clearing tonight to bring the threat for fog at least in the vicinity of the field. If that occurs, will also have the potential for IFR CIGS/VSBYS. Shower and thunderstorm threat with the frontal passage Monday should hold off until closer to 00z Tuesday. /OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/ MON EVE...VFR. Chc -TSRA. Wind S 5-10 kts. TUE...VFR. Wind N 5-10 kts.
