Rated 4 out of 5 by nsdg The location was good,….but food more expensive than I would expect and on top of it the food was not really that great, only option for good food was the fresh fruit, and fish, other than that , it was average for the cost of the room and travel to get there. staff were all pleasant and very nice and did their best bottom line, its far to get to and would not suggest that for the price December 2, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Zach8989 This Retreat is good but not WOW - Food selections can be better. - Shouldn't be assigning guest a retreat that is near one that is doing renovation as the renovation seems to be dropping debri into the ocean, posting danger to guest doing snorkelling around the area. - WAVE staff is less than friendly. - Algae forming in the showers - Amenities in the room is good. November 24, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Naaf good for Honeymooners I really recommend this hotel for Honeymooners and young couples. the strength points are the location, facilities, activities, and the restaurants.On the other hand, I have experienced an annoying problem during the first two days, unfortunately, I have found some living ants,spiders, and weird insects inside my water villa all over my bed and inside the closet. I have reported this problem to the management and they have tried to satisfy us to web out this experience from our memory but I don't think so that any one can forget such a bad experience.

Rated 5 out of 5 by samerv AMAZING! Simply Amazing If you choose to go to the Maldives don't waste your time looking where to go! W is the best of all. The talents are incredibly cool and extremely dedicated to make your stay the best ever. Being from the reservation stage with Oksana who made it so simple on us and Mia who was great in finding us the room we were looking for. To the SPA team who are one of the best, namely Raju whom my wife adored, to Ougdesh (sorry if I misspelled the name) who offered us the best Yoga to Didi and Sunita for their great welcome and service at FIRE restaurant or Rahood who astonished us with his recipes or Farooq who is the veteran of this place and pampered us with great fruits. And last, but by no means least, Mathiew (Mr. W insider) who was always present and watching carefully that we are enjoying every moment of our stay. We simply loved you all guys and will come back again next year. As for the facility, the rooms are WOW (specially the water villas on lagoon side), you can spend your day there relaxing, enjoying great lounge music with the superb BOSE music system. The activities are very diversified from snorkeling, diving, sea bob, night fishing, .. you name it. The SPA is among the best I tried; choose to make a session outdoor with the beach inf front of you. October 18, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by SonjiGeorge W Maldives Best Place on Earth One week after returning from our Honeymoon we are still gushing on how ridiculously beautiful everything was. The staff went above and beyond from the moment they met us at the seaplane. From the GM (Jennifer) to Head of Operations (Steve) to F&B Talent to Housekeeping...This group pulled out all the stops. It truly is Whatever You Want Whenever You Want. Felt totally spoilt by them. Couldn't have ran into more friendly and genuine people....we truly loved our experience and would highly recommend it (actually we just did to this newly engaged couple). Everything is to die for...I loved our overwater bungalow and plunge pool. And yes some may think it's expensive but it's definitely a luxury that is worth it...in this case you truly get what you pay for. Sonji & George October 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tough Wonderful Experience It's a wonderful and unforgetable experience staying in W Hotel Maldives. The envirnoment and the friendliness of the staffs are remarkable. Particullarly, staffs in Kitchen are so attentive to customers and the tasty food in the restaurant which are the areas that I highly recommended to others. September 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Verified Reviewer The wonderful memories of my life Though the W hotel island is not big, but the equipment is complete, let a person as if place oneself in a paradise on earth. Everything here is so comfortable and beautiful. Staff are very warm, considerate service fine except the staff of the fish.In general this is a very good trip. It gives my life left a good memory.

The staff was fantastic especially Ms Ann Kashima who was truly outstanding, The entire team at breakfast was excellent esp Mr Faruk (i love his freshly blended juice and beautifully served cut fruits) and Mr Chiten the restaurant manager who is always engaging the guests during breakfast , as well as all the chef who takes time to mingle with the guestd.

Rated 4 out of 5 by sgimperial peaceful island enjoying my holiday very much. My girlfriend told me the spa is excellent. I experienced vibrant marine life from snorkeling. W island is a gleaming pearl when you look down from Parasailing or wateraircraft. I am regret that i did not go to fishing. i friend i met in airport who cathed a young shark in nigh fishing activity ( of course you have to released it). Fish and Kitchen's food is ok. WET is a good place to meet people and relax. i real dislike Fire's food due to the Scorched flesh. Also, the swimming pool in the house is not friendly, the pool wall is made by coarse material. i scrathed my back in the pool. anyway all shortcomings above can be avoid by yourself, But the beauty, elegance and style of W's environment is unparalleled. you must experience it by yourself!! Don't forget bring earplug when you take the waterplane July 29, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Singhfamily WWWWWow I rarely write reviews but this is a worthwhile exception. We came to the W Maldives to celebrate our 20th anniversary. From the spectacular seaplane arrival to the warm smiling faces and personalized attention the place was amazing. As a lifetime SPG platinum member I have seen a lot of properties but this is one of the best! The exclusivity makes it feel like its your own private island. Make no mistake, this place is expensive but the service makes it worthwhile. From the champagne bottle to an upgraded villa to a personalized DJ playing 80's tunes to a special Indian dinner by the ocean...the W staff made it a truly memorable experience! Thanks to all :) June 29, 2013

Rated 3 out of 5 by Amar29 Recent Maldives trip - 7 Nights May My wife and I stayed at this resort for our wedding anniversary. Having spent our honeymoon at the St Regis Bora Bora we had high hopes and expectations of the W @ Maldives. firstly, Maldives as a whole has a huge commercial drive which is frankly quite annoying as you are confronted with this from the get go. Being someone who likes to get acquainted and accustomed to my surroundings first I find this quite unnerving. This starts at the W reception at the Maldives airport. Half of our day was spent waiting at this reception as the transport to the resort is done via cost effective sea plane. In our experience this took an hour to arrive. Not a great start to a 5* deluxe and priced resort. We stayed in a beach room as we had already experienced a premium overwater room at Bora Bora so we wanted a change. The rooms are very outdated and small. The bathroom is lovely but at 5:30pm everyday you are chocked by the mosquito prevention spray. There is no protection from this. We were also shocked by the cleanliness of rooms, no effort is made to sweep the floors or to thoroughly clean the rooms. Also our sofa in the outside garden area was filthy and only cleaned when we complained. I got a rash on my back on the 4th day and got the doctor to come to check me out. She said it probably came from the pool in the room as we had rain showers during the night over the last few days - why wasn't it cleaned. She gave me some cream and wanted $10, I told her to put it on the room and it never showed on the final bill. The people/staff at the hotel are very nice, I was impressed by Steve the GM and the local Maldivian staff, who work really hard and are attentive. The problem with this resort is the skill and creativeness of the staff, there isn't any. There is no touch in elaborating the Whatever Whenever brand and executing this, I simply just didn't get it. The hotel service, creativeness, features and food options are very limited and tired. The resort is nice but lacks style and youth, it did not live up to our expectation at all and this was sad for us as we wanted this place to be our yearly get away as Bora Bora is very far for us to travel. In short for the price this did not live up to the hype of the W brand. May 20, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Gabsini Nice, comfortable, might need slight refurbishment Overall that was nice experience. Staff super helpful, place is magnificent, clean. Breakfast abundant. I did not really like only two points: 1. some furniture was a bit too old, like from the 80's, beginning of the 90s (or at least it looked like that). 2. Staff was constantly passing through my garden - that sort of ruined the feeling of privacy. May 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Scoobysu Excellent location for honeymooners Every detail of the resort was well thought out. We loved our ocean view water chalet. The surround sound Bose system in the room and outside on the sun deck added so much value to our enjoyment. Keep up the great service levels. April 29, 2013

HUNGARIAN builders who drank their way to the bottom of a huge barrel of rum while renovating a house got a nasty surprise when a pickled corpse tumbled out of the empty barrel, a police magazine website reported.
According to the Hungarian site, the body of a man had been shipped back from Jamaica 20 years ago by his wife in the barrel of rum in order to avoid the cost of an official return. Workers said the rum had a "special taste".

What is in this article?:
- Dry winter an omen of long-term drought?
- Drought expected to expand
- Severe, prolonged drought ahead?
The La Niña meteorological phenomenon that will influence this winter's weather and bring warmer, drier than average weather to the Southwest, Southern Plains, Gulf Coast states, and the Southeast 'will likely exacerbate drought conditions in these areas," National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) scientists said in their October 21 forecast, noting that it also has the potential "to bring weather extremes" to parts of the nation."
Severe, prolonged drought ahead?
While this winter's outlook is based upon La Niña's influence, the National Center for Atmospheric Research, in a paper reviewing recent literature on drought, contends that the U.S. and many other heavily populated countries face a growing threat of severe, prolonged drought in coming decades.
The analysis of 22 computer climate models and previously published studies by NCAR scientist Aiguo Dai projects that warming temperatures will bring increasingly dry conditions over much of the earth over the next three decades — perhaps on a scale not seen in modern times.
In just 20 years, vast areas of the world are going to be far drier than they are today, the study says.
"A striking feature is that aridity has increased since the late 20th century and will become severe drought by the 2060s over much of the Americas, southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Australia, and southern Europe."
Areas where drought is expected to decrease include much of northern Europe, Russia, Canada, Alaska, and some areas in the southern hemisphere.
But, Dai says, "the increased wetness over the northern, sparsely populated high latitudes can't match the drying over the more densely populated temperate and tropical areas.
"If the projections in this study come even close to being realized, the consequences for society worldwide will be enormous."
A previous study by Dai and his colleagues found that the percentage of Earth's land areas affected by serious drought more than doubled in the period from the 1970s to the early 2000s, and that some of the world's major rivers are losing water.
By the 2030s, Dai's study indicates, some regions in the U.S. and overseas could be experiencing "particularly severe" drought conditions.
While he cautions that his findings are based on the best current projections, "what actually happens in coming decades will depend on many factors, including actual future emissions of greenhouse gases and natural climate cycles such as El Niño."

text: The Räuschling is an old variety of grape that is still cultivated in only a few places in Switzerland. It thrives on the sunny slopes above Lake Zürich, and the resulting crisp, fruity white wine has evolved into something of a regional speciality. Zürich's house wine goes well with fish dishes, and also makes a popular aperitif.

TIPTON - Cindy Olsen knows first hand the importance of the care provided at Janet Weis Children's Hospital at Geisinger Medical Center in Danville.
"They saved my life and my son's life," said the State College woman whose son, Tyler, 13, is one of the 2014 Children's Miracle Network at Geisinger Miracle Kids.
"I had preclampsia and was real sick. They put me on IVs and saved him. I had an emergency C-section. We wouldn't be here if not for them," she said.

Tyler Olsen, 13, of State College, a 2014 Miracle Kid, rides the Scrambler on Sunday at DelGrosso's Amusement Park during Children's Miracle Network weekend.
The Olsens were among those participating in the 2014 Children's Miracle Network Telethon held over the weekend at DelGrosso's Amusement Park.
"I like the rides and the food. I like the tilt-a-whirl. It is fun, and it spins," said Tyler, a seventh-grade student at Mount Nittany Middle School, who was born with a bilateral cleft lip and palate.
"He had five surgeries before he was a year old. He is doing real well," Cindy Olsen said.
Geisinger also holds a special place in the hearts of the Foytack family of State College.
"Geisinger is fantastic. They are very professional," said Annie Foytack, whose son, Caleb, 5, a 2010 Miracle Kid, was born at 28 weeks and developed a bowel disease called necrotizing enterocolitis.
"The doctors are amazing and make families feel extremely comfortable. They make you feel like family. They are also on the cutting edge of technology," Foytack said.
"He is doing fantastic," she said of her son. "He plays sports like soccer, swimming and tennis. He will start kindergarten this fall."
Michele Reese of Port Matilda, whose son, Derrick, was also a 2010 Miracle Kid, is pleased with the care given at Geisinger.
"They have a great support system of doctors and nurses. They have been a big help to us. He has been five years cancer-free at the end of April," said Reese, whose son, now 22, was 16 when diagnosed with osteocarinoma, a bone cancer.
DelGrosso's Amusement Park was pleased to be the host site for the local telethon, aired on WTAJ-TV.
"It is an honor to be a host site. We are fortunate to have such a great hospital nearby. Anything we can do to help, we try to do. It is rewarding," spokeswoman Amy Mearkle said.
"We are a family company. We are all about healthy families, healthy children and fun," she said.
Geisinger officials said it was a fantastic weekend.
"We couldn't ask for better weather, and our volunteers and Miracle Kid families had a great time at the park," said Mike McMullen, corporate communications specialist for Children's Miracle Network at Geisinger.
"Our record-breaking total of more than $800,000 in the Altoona area is fantastic. This money will be used to provide equipment, programs and services for kids from our area treated at Geisinger Janet Weis Children's Hospital and our pediatric entities throughout the region, including Geisinger Gray's Woods and our clinic in Altoona."
The annual fundraiser netted $2,781,829 for Geisinger Janet Weis Children's Hospital pediatric services.
The Wilkes-Barre broadcast, airing on WYOU, collected $1,772,379 from corporate sponsors, community and employee groups and phone-in pledges. The Johnstown-Altoona broadcast on WTAJ netted a total of $822,350, while the Binghamton, N.Y., broadcast on WBNG tallied $187,100.
Donations stay in the region to help sick and injured children through programs, services and medical equipment.

Alexia e' un vero e proprio portento. Voce potente ed estensione vocale impressionante ha conquistato e meritato notorieta' partendo dalla gavetta. Sin da tenerissima eta' ha sempre mostrato predisposizione ed innato talento per la musica. I suoi primi passi nel mercato discografico sono stati a tempo di dance music, ambiente che le ha dato vastissima notorieta' all'estero prima ancora che in Italia. Il successo nella sua terra natale arriva pero' quando Alexia calca il palco di Sanremo nel 2002. Da allora il suo successo e' indiscusso. Recentemente Alexia si e' dedicata alla sua vita personale dando alla luce Maria Vittoria; ritornando poi al suo elemento naturale, la musica…
Whoever coined the phrase "big things come in small packages" may have had Alessia Aquilani in mind. Alexia, as she is better known, stands only 150 centimeters (4 feet and 11 inches). Although diminutive in stature, her powerful voice and amazing range command immediate attention while performing. She compliments these vocal skills with a carefully choreographed and graceful dance stage presence, which adds to the high-energy level of her shows.
Alexia was born in the province of La Spezia, located in the northeastern region of Liguria, on May 19, 1967. She is an accomplished singer/songwriter and producer of her own music, much of which is written in English. Her musical styles cover a broad range of genres, including soul, blues, Eurodance, pop and rock. Alexia's remarkable success has led to her being dubbed "La Regina delle Dance" (The Queen of Dance) and her avant-garde approach has continually evolved over time. She also has the distinct honor of being the first Italian female singer to reach #1 on the charts in both Italy and England.
Alexia showed a predisposition to singing while only four years old and began to accumulate numerous awards and accolades. By age seven she had joined her first band called "I Ragazzi di Migliarini", although she would leave shortly thereafter to concentrate on refining her singing skills, studying dance and learning to play the piano. Her first recording contract was signed with DWA (Dance World Attack) Records owned by Roberto Zanetti.
Beginning in 1989, she recorded numerous English language songs which charted well in Europe and were even more successfully promoted to the burgeoning dance market of Japan. She later served as a backing vocalist for British rapper Ian Campbell's group called Ice Mc and the Eurodance vocal group called Double You. This would allow her to accompany these major acts on international tours that made over 300 appearances worldwide.
Alexia chose to pursue a solo career and in August of 1995 her first single "Me and You" reached #1 on the Italian charts. Over the course of the next two years, she released four singles; "Summer is crazy", "Number one", "Uh la la la" and "Gimme love" all of which reached the top position on the charts in both Italy and Spain. During this time her first two full-length albums "Fun Club" (1997) and "The Party" (1998) each sold over a half-million copies. She closed out the millennium with her third recording "Happy" (1999) and began thinking about expanding her career style beyond Eurodance. Her fourth recording, "The Hits" was a greatest hits compilation that was released in 2000 and it was at this point that she chose to terminate her contract with DWA. She opened the new century by signing on with Sony Music and recording her fifth and final English language release called "Mad for Music" (2001). Sales of the recording however were disappointing in comparison to her previous releases. After an exhausting international tour she participated in her seventh Festivalbar Music competition in 2001.
After just six short years and having achieved amazing success she made the bold decision to begin recording in her native language of Italian. Her next release, "Alexia" earned two gold records and was followed up with her first appearance at the 2002 Sanremo Music Festival. Her entry "Dimmi come" surprised everyone by finishing in second place and she was awarded the "Premio Volare Migliore Musica" (Volare Award for Best Music). Alexia returned to Sanremo in 2003 and captured first place with her soulful ballad "Per dire di no". This song was included on her seventh recording "Il cuore a modo mio" which was released shortly thereafter and was followed by a lengthy tour. The album's second single "Egoista" was later released and became an immediate hit. With this recording, Alexia changed her music style, seeking to express herself through powerful and emotional compositions. The album also featured an Italian cover of Aretha Franklin's 1967 hit "I never loved a man". Her eighth album "Gli occhi grandi della luna" (2004) featured Italian versions of songs written by rhythm-and-blues legends Diane Warren "Se te ne vai cosi" and Sam Watters "Come tu mi vuoi". The song "Senza un vincitore" was dedicated to the late Italian cyclist Marco Pantani, whose life was beset by accusations of performance enhancing drugs and who eventually died of a tragic cocaine overdose. She returned to Festivalbar that year for the last time as she presented the song "You need love". Alexia's last recording on the Sony Music label would be her second greatest hits compilation "Da grande" (2005) which contained the previously unreleased title track. She also entered this song into the 2005 Sanremo Festival and captured second place in the female category.
Alexia took some time away from music and was married later that year to Andrea Camerana, nephew to famous Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani and together they had a daughter, Maria Vittoria who was born in February of 2007. She returned to music scene soon thereafter and her next two recordings "Ale" (2008) and "Stars" (2010) saw a return to her pop, rock and dance roots.

Yeah we were in the same boat and atm we are still running the 9.4.2-
P2 version which is supposed to have the fix for the kaminsky bug, but
was said by ISC to have a problem with "stability" on windoze. We are
running it on w2k adv server and so far no "stability" problems?!
Maybe because its only being used as a secondary and its not under
much load? Never did really hear what exactly the "stability" problem
entailed so no idea why we haven't been affected so far???

Ilya Kovalchuk has a hot stick: 10 points in six games, including seven goals. He scored twice against the Winnipeg Jets, helping the Devils cruise to a 5-1 victory.
He admitted that scoring the own-goal during the Carolina game was the lowest point of the season for him, and he turned things around after that. Now he leads the team with 19 goals and his 40 points are second only to Patrik Elias's 44.
"He's such an unselfish player. You're always wanting him to shoot more," Devils coach Pete DeBoer said. "He's playing well right now."
devszid praised his play:
Kovy is doing a lot of great things right now but I think the best thing he's doing is he's making players around him better as he's played unselfishly. He's now willing to use his teammates in cycling down low and just simple dump in and retrieves. He has world class talent that can't be denied but now he's being a smarter hockey player.
occorruption agreed:
Great points! Also Kovy is playing both ends of the ice. His defensive game has improved. He's playing Devils hockey.
oldtimer noted, in the game recap:
I may have to pick up a Kovalchuck shirt, he's looking like a man possessed lately.
Is Kovalchuk's recent play making you feel good about the team's chances against the Bruins Thursday night? Do you think he'll be able to sustain this for the rest of the season? Sound off!

Skip to comments.Obama: Repub. budget would close 100's of national parks; BUT there are only 58 [vanity]
Posted on 04/04/2012 11:46:46 AM PDT by matt1234
In yesterday's attack on the proposed Republican budget in the House, obama said "Hundreds of national parks would be forced to close for part or all of the year." (Transcript here). However, there are only 58 national parks (source here).
You mean in all 57 states, there are only 58 National Parks?
There you go. Reading and stating facts. The unicorn sanctuary and elvish hideouts are the hardest hit according to a triple blind dude on methadone.
Doesn't this dick-cheese have any staffers that could fact check what he is going to speak about before he spouts off with his verbal diarrhea?
"You mean in all 57 states, there are only 58 National Parks?"
Barry: "Err, umm... That's all? Err, umm... Well under my Administration we need to add additional parks to all 57 states so there WILL be 100 National Parks. Err, umm... That doesn't add up. Err, umm... Let me get back with you. Meanwhile STOP the Republicans from closing those parks no matter what they add up to. O.K.?"
I was at Rocky Mountain National Park last week, ready to pay the entrance fee...but guess what?
I went through the gate 3 times (forgot my trail map back in Estes), traffic was not heavy, but at $10-80 bucks a pop, I'm sure the NPS was blowing at least $1,000 an hour!
I'm totally willing to pay the fee, BUT KEN SALAZAR would rather borrow the money from China!!!
It will be nice to have an American president back in the Oval Office again in January 2013 and many unemployed radical leftist czars.
And he *made it* through a bunch of high powered schools.........ROTFLMAO!!
He already closed many, 2 years ago.
He already closed many, 2 years ago.
He already closed many, 2 years ago.
He already closed many, 2 years ago.
Let him go, he is on a roll.
Some would be closed more than once. For example: 58 parks X 10 closings on average = (slipping on computer glove, cypher, cypher , carry 1 plus 7 in...30 days has September, but February is cold....) Got it! hundreds of closings!
Wiki has an incomplete list too.
I agree. What an embarrassment.
Pay attention, America. This tete du merde exemplifies Affirmative Action.
"I visited Craters of the Moon in Idaho last summer. "
Cool place. Had never heard of it til my MIL mentioned she had been there -—when the lava was still cooling....
Here in Michigan I've found that I actually prefer the state parks and forests to the National. Seems that asking visitors to donate a few bucks goes a long way.
Better take a screen cap of that wikipedia page ASAP. Obama activists will be changing it very soon to reflect "100's of National Parks".
Which of the 57 States are these "Hundreds" of National Parks in?
Actually, there are 379 "sites", like Minuteman National Historic Park run by the National Park Service, but not a "National Park". If he had said National Park Service sites, he might not be talking total smack. A lot of them, like the Lowell National Historical Park could disappear without anyone other than the immediate families of the employees even noticing.
I noticed that the national lakeshores aren't included either.
According to the The National Parks: Index 20092011 published by National Park Service, there are 58 National Parks. To verify, go to the following page, and scroll down to the table titled "Statistical Summary":
Maybe you are thinking of national monuments, national historical sites, etc.?
Give them back to the States.....that will save billions
I think its a matter of designation. Here in Michigan we have two national lakeshores that are really no different than national parks aside from the designation.
I'm not sure what wikipedia used as a source, the the National Park Service web site list 432 locations on their "Find a Park" page.
Could be... List of areas in the United States National Park System
Like he thinks anyone can afford the gas to drive to a national park.
Like he thinks anyone can afford the gas to drive to a national park.

:) JK With ya
I'm sure the libs will use the ~400 number to weasel out of obama's lie, but technically his statement is false. Saying "Hundreds of national parks would be forced to close..." is a lot scarier than saying "Hundreds of sites administered by the national park service would be forced to close...". obama knows that. He's intentionally bending the truth to spread fear.
He is uneducated and ignorant... he is not smart or even average and I would think that he lost his law license because he is not qualified to practice law... he does not know the Constitution and he is nothing but a liar and a street punk.
I agree.
"A lot of them, like the Lowell National Historical Park could disappear without anyone other than the immediate families of the employees even noticing."
Yep, I knew a guy in the late 70's that yearned for a job at one of these parks. Nice gig if you could get it. Smoke pot all day AND get retirement benefits!
I feel bad for the park rangers who depend on local visitors for donations but hey, not THAT bad!
I don't get donations for my grocery/gas bill.
58 parks. They close every night. Times 365 days?
Hell's Belles! That's thousands of closings!
The federal gov "owns" huge amounts of all land west of the mississippi. Sell that land off and we'd have plenty of money to pay off the debt.
Agree. But I'd tie it to a balanced budget amendment.
"You mean in all 57 states, there are only 58 National Parks?"
Well, one in DC.
Maybe Zero is counting all the Popeye's fried chicken stores as national parks.
Obviously, you've been a visitor to Lowell National Historical Park. A wet kiss to the late Paul Tsongis. Now, I'm stuck with his widow as my congresscritter. Cudda been worse, I might have got a Kennedy spawn.
Somebody needs to inform the teleprompter.

I read with interest the letter from Khairy and Mullen (1) emphasizing the need to consider hypothyroidism as the cause of intractable ascites and encephalopathy in patients with cirrhosis confirmed by liver biopsy. In an article related to this topic, Fred (2) emphasized that in anyone with conspicuous ascites, four "curable" causes should always be considered "" constrictive pericarditis, pancreatitis with pseudocyst formation, myxedema, and tuberculous peritonitis. He observed nine patients, all with histologically proven cirrhosis, whose ascites resolved with treatment for pancreatitis with pseudocyst formation (four), tuberculous peritonitis (two), myxedema (two), and constrictive pericarditis (one).

Re: Aikido as Misogi
That is a beautiful post. Thank you so much for sharing it. Misogi is such a vast term, and your description certainly carries that across. I will be re-reading it many times, I'm sure.
I'm sort of laughing about this in terms of my own practice. For a long time it's become clear to me about removing the obstacles in my life, in my thinking, etc. Aikido started pretty immediately in removing my fears, in shifting my feeling mind to hara and releasing tensions that impede movement, in giving me insight into my interactions with others and accepting accountability for them.
But only fairly recently, I've come to really grasp the importance, and even profundity, of a good hard sweat. There's no substitute for a serious round of blowing out the toxins from our bodies (and because of the principle of correspondence, our minds and emotions, as well). It is a very healing thing, in and of itself. I didn't appreciate the simplicity of that aspect of misogi when I started out. Coming full circle, and whatnot, I guess.

CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY - Call 1(800) 388 6491
Felony or Misdemeanor/State or Federal Court
The Law Office of Deron Castro, P.C., is dedicated to the representation of individuals charged with criminal offenses. For over 16 years we have aggressively represented people in state and federal court in the New York metropolitan area and elsewhere on a variety of charges, including: assault; drug possession; drug sale; DWI; murder; manslaughter; gun possession; robbery; burglary; conspiracy; grand larceny; fraud; and commercial bribery.
Unlike many lawyers practicing in the area of criminal defense, Deron Castro has extensive trial experience involving the most serious type of crimes. Whether you or a loved one is charged with a misdemeanor or a felony, the attorney best suited to evaluate, negotiate and handle the case is an experienced criminal trial attorney. Some cases may need to go to trial while others may be resolved with a reasonable plea bargain. The best way to receive a reasonable plea offer is by having an attorney with extensive trial experience who has obtained successful results against the very prosecutors with whom he is negotiating. Whether it is fighting a case at trial or acquiring a favorable plea offer, the Law Office of Deron Castro, P.C., can provide the best representaion for you or a loved one.
UPDATE - GUN CHARGES DISMISSED AGAINST QUEENS MAN DESPITE CLAIM BY POLICE OFFICER - Client was charged with Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree after police officer claimed he observed client in possession of a gun in the basement area of building. After numerous court appearances and months of discussions with the District Attorney's Office, all charges were dismissed against the client without the case ever having to be presented to a grand jury. Outstanding victory for the client who maintained his innocence throughout the process. This is yet another example of how agressive representation can prevail and discredit a police officer's version of an incident. Case dismissed and sealed. October 29, 2014 - Queens County Criminal Court.
UPDATE - JURY RETURNS WITH NOT GUILTY VERDICT FOR QUEENS MAN ON CHARGE OF ATTEMPTED MURDER AND POSSESSION OF A GUN! - The client was charged with shooting someone outside of a nightclub in Jamaica, Queens. After an intense cross examination of the complainant by Attorney Deron Castro and without the defense calling a single witness, a Queens jury quickly returned a not guilty verdict on charges of Attempted Murder and Criminal Possession of a Weapon. This victory helped the client avoid a possible sentence of 25 years in prison. September 30, 2014 - Queens County Supreme Court
UPDATE - ATTEMPTED MURDER CASE DISMISSED AFTER TWO COURT APPEARANCES! - Client was charged with attempted murder of an individual who was shot while sitting in a car and faced a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison. After fighting with NYPD and the District Attorney's Office regarding the client's charges and arrest, Attorney Deron Castro was able to secure a dismissal of all charges for the client after two court appearances. Although an outcome like this usually will take a longer period of time, this is just an example of what can be accomplished with effective representation. September 11, 2014 - Queens County Criminal Court
UPDATE - ATTEMPTED MURDER & GUN CHARGE DISMISSED AGAINST QUEENS MAN! - After a long battle with the District Attorney's Office, all charges were dismissed against a client on June 18, 2014. Before Attorney Deron Castro was retained in this case, the client was held at Rikers Island with no bail. After entering the case and demanding that the case be sent to the Grand Jury, we were able to get the client released without any bail even though he was already on probation. The client was charged with shooting someone on the street. Through agressive representation and refusing to accept a plea bargain, Attorney Deron Castro successfully convinced the prosecutor to drop all charges against the young client. June 2014 - Queens County Criminal Court
UPDATE - NOT GUILTY VERDICT IN QUEENS STOP & FRISK GUN POSSESSION TRIAL - Although police sergeant claimed he observed client place gun on ground, jury found client NOT GUILTY of all gun possession charges after Attorney Deron Castro attacked the credibilty of the sergeant during a classic cross examination. By confronting the police officer with numerous contradictions in his prior testimony and in his own police reports, Deron Castro completely discredited the prosecution's main witness. Client was facing up to 15 years on the gun possession charges. October 29, 2013 - Queens County Supreme Court
UPDATE - GUN CHARGE DISMISSED AFTER CLIENT TESTIFIES IN GRAND JURY - Client charged with gun possession in Queens County Criminal Court. After preparing with Defense Attorney Deron Castro for several weeks, the client testified before a grand jury and all charges were dismissed. At a time when gun cases are getting a great deal of attention because of pressure from Mayor Bloomberg, it is quite gratifying to have grand jurors carefully consider the testimony of a young client and then toss all charges including a gun posession charge which carried a mandatory state prison sentence. May 2013 - Queens Criminal Court
UPDATE - JURY RETURNS NOT GUILTY VERDICT IN JUST 15 MINUTES AFTER MONTH LONG TRIAL! - Client was charged with a gun possession and reckless endangerment related to a shooting outside of a Manhattan club. Client faced a life sentence as a mandatory persistent offender. Although co-defendant was charged with murder, Deron Castro was able to have a separate jury decide his client's case in a unique two jury trial. Despite the prosecutor presenting a case for a month, a relentless cross examination by Defense Attorney Deron Castro of the prosecutor's key eyewitness led to a Not Guilty verdict in just 15 minutes! Special thanks must be given to University of North Carolina Law Student Robert Rivera for his assistance in the preparation for this trial. October 12, 2012 - Manhattan Supreme Court
UPDATE - MANHATTAN MAN FOUND NOT GUILTY OF ALL ROBBERY AND GUN CHARGES - Client was charged with a gun point robbery and faced a life sentence as a mandatory persistent felon (NY version of three strikes law). Defense Attorney Deron Castro repeatedly attacked the alleged victim's version of events during a heated cross examination. He argued to the jury that this was no robbery and was a dispute over money during a marijuana sale. Although the police recovered a gun and the complainant's cell phone near the scene of the client's arrest, cross examination by Deron Castro uncovered a number of contradictions and unexplained circumstances. The jury returned with a not guilty verdict the following day. This victory helped the client avoid a life sentence. May 5, 2012 - Manhattan Supreme Court
UPDATE - NOT GUILTY VERDICT IN GUN CASE - A jury returned a verdict of NOT GUILTY on a charge of Possession of a Weapon. In a seemingly unwinnable case where a co-defendant and a prosecutor both claimed the client was the guilty party, defense attorney Deron Castro was able to punch holes in the police officer's version of events and convince a jury to find the client not guilty of possessing the gun. This victory helped the client avoid a possible 15 year sentence. March 5, 2012 - Queens County Supreme Court
UPDATE - SOUTH JAMAICA MAN FOUND NOT GUILTY IN SHOOTING - A Queens County jury returned a verdict of NOT GUILTY on all charges in a trial where cross examination of the prosecutor's main eyewitness by defense attorney Deron Castro uncovered numerous contradictions and highly questionable police conduct. The jury returned with a Not Guilty verdict in less than 1 hour. After the trial, defense attorney Deron Castro received an email from a member of the jury which stated: "I was [a} juror...in the trial that took place yesterday in Queens court...I had to look you up because I was completely awestruck by your work in that courtroom defending your client. Your level of passion and confidence while presenting your case was at such a high level, it was inspiring. It was obvious to me that you gave that trial 200% and more. I was extremely inspired by your work in that courtroom. Your presence, demeanor, strategy, confidence, passion in the courtroom was superb. If I ever need a criminal defense lawyer (which I hope I never do), or if I needed to recommend one, you would be choice number one without a doubt." December 7, 2011 - Queens County Supreme Court
UPDATE - NOT GUILTY VERDICT IN MURDER TRIAL IN BROOKLYN - After 5 1/2 days of deliberating, a Brooklyn jury returned a verdict of NOT GUILTY on Murder and Weapons charges. Cross examination by defense attorney Deron Castro exposed the prosecutor's main witness as a government informant and former pimp. Without calling a single witness at the trial, the defense relied upon an attack on every aspect of the prosecutor's case and secured an acquittal of all charges for the client and avoided a life sentence. June 21, 2011 - Brooklyn Supreme Court
UPDATE - BROOKLYN MAN FOUND NOT GUILTY OF ALL CHARGES IN HIGH PROFILE ASSAULT CASE! "Defense attorney Deron Castro killed the witnesses with his cross examination" said a trial juror to NY Post. March 28, 2011 - Brooklyn Supreme Court - Client accused of beating 65 year old in head with wooden stick causing brain injury and requiring medically induced coma. Defense attorney Deron Castro attacked the story being told by the witnesses and argued that the client was indeed the victim of a brutal gay bashing. Although client faced a prison sentence of 25 years and was held on an immigration warrant, he was cleared of charges and released by immigration authorities within a few days.

MOUNT UNION - It's easy to find something to complain about at the Creation Festival.
The heat, the dust, the crowds. The wall-to-wall tents, and the neighbors who strum their guitars until 2 a.m. The little critter that woke you up in the middle of the night as it crawled under your tent.
But ask anyone at the largest Christian music festival in the U.S. how they are, and irritated answers are often few and far between. Drop a beach ball in the wind and a stranger runs to catch it for you. Look for a rare spot of shade, and someone welcomes you to sit under their tarp.

Creation Festival draws about 70,000 visitors each year to the largest Christian music festival on the East coast. See more photos online at cu.lewistownsentinel.com.

Matt and Robin Werner, of Centre, talk about their annual jaunt to Creation and how they enjoy worshipping God with 70,000 other people in attendance. The Werners lead the house church FX Cafe in Juniata County.
Blissed lead singer David Pearson asks the crowd to raise their hands up during the band's show on the Fringe Stage Thursday at Creation.
Members of the Christian rock band 'Red' participate in a question/answer session at the youth leadership building.

Matt and Robin Werner, FX Cafe house church leaders from Centre, Juniata County, said the local community sometimes negatively stereotypes the Mount Union event - and gives it the nickname "Christian Woodstock."
Though the Werners said there probably are some partying teens who smuggle in drugs and alcohol, their experiences and observations have been very positive.
The only rule that Matt Werner said he ever saw broken was two young men who were walking around without shirts on. The Creation dress policy asks people to dress modestly, including requiring men to always wear shirts.
Still, with Creation typically attracting 70,000 people every year, the crowds are guaranteed to include people whose hearts are not in the right place.
"It's the same way as church," Matt Werner said.
But he and his wife said they hope the musicians' and speakers' messages will plant seeds of God's Word in those who do not attend for the right reasons.
During a Youth Leaders Talkback session on Thursday, Anthony Armstrong, guitarist for Red, said playing on secular tours gives his band the opportunity to witness to those who might otherwise not hear the Gospel.
Secular groups seek out Red to join their tours because they find the Christian band members encouraging and non-judgmental, Armstrong said.
During their first secular group tours, Armstrong said a security guard learned about their faith and knocked on their dressing room door to ask for prayer.
On another night, Armstrong said he witnessed to another musician after they started comparing tattoos.
"It's not all sex, drugs and rock and roll like it used to be," Armstrong said of the group tours. "We're family men. Whether we're in church on a mainstream concert, we are who we are."
Armstrong said they plant seeds that they hope will grow into faith.
These stories from bands like Red are important to Matt and Robin Werner, because the artists can share more about their faith and ministry than the have the chance to on stage.
Red's screaming, head-banging hard rock may cause some eye rolls and head aches; but Matt Werner said the Youth Leader Talkbacks, where only adults are allowed, help older generations see beyond their distaste for the music.
The Werners said they would much rather see youth listen to bands like Red that have a Christian message than to secular bands that promote sinful behavior.
They also like that Creation showcases ministry and missions opportunities where teens can learn about ways to serve others. Vendors from missions organizations like Compassion International give youth a glimpse of the many ways they can make a difference in the world, Robin Werner said.
The festival's messages also open doors for conversations about faith and life issues with the youth, the Werners said.
For themselves, the Werners said the weekend gives them a chance to hear other ministers lead and to refresh their faith.
"Where else can you go and get hot and sticky and say it's refreshing?" Matt Werner said, chuckling.
Worshipping in a crowd of 70,000 people is awesome, he said, remembering writer/singer Chris Tomlin's first concert at Creation.
"It gives you a little taste of what heaven is like," his wife added.
For Kelsey Beasom, of McCoysville, who came to Creation with her family, said the community worship keeps her coming back to the festival ever year.
"Everyone comes together for one reason, all praising and worshipping together," Beasom said.
The festival continues through tonight with speakers Lakita Garth, Reid Saunders, Tony Nolan and Duffy Robbins. Performances include Chris August, Brandon Heath, Carlos Whittaker, Owl City and Toby Mac. The festival will end with a fireworks display beginning around 10:45 p.m.

MARTINSBURG - Worship Life Church, in Martinsburg, recently gained a new head pastor, The Rev. Fred Lee.
The 47-year-old has lived in Martinsburg since 2006. Lee and his family are originally from Philadelphia.
Lee said The Rev. Carl Q. Hickerson felt called to move on to Springfield Baptist Church in Washington, D.C. In the weeks during which he planned his departure, Hickerson approached Lee, and said, "There is something I need you to do."

Worship Life Church, in Martinsburg, recently gained a new head pastor, The Rev. Fred Lee, who with his wife Terese is shown here. He is orginally from Philladelphia and has lived in Martinsburg since 2006.
That "something" was for Lee to assume Hickerson's role as executive pastor at the church and continue Hickerson's vision, which was to lead the church to become more universal in its worship.
"We are not an African-American church, but rather, we are diversified. Ultimately, we want to serve our community, that is, meet people where they are."
Despite feeling honored by Hickerson's request, Lee said he wondered how he would have the strength to add this extra duty to his already full schedule.
In addition to having six children with his wife of 19 years, Terese, Lee works full-time as a police supervisor for the Pentagon Force Protection.
But Lee is not only an active husband and father. He is also a second-year master's student in the School of Divinity at Howard University, with an expectant graduation date of May 2013. He said current studies this semester include praise and worship, and also world religions such as Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and Judaism, as well as the history of the "Black Church."
Lee also has served for the past three years as vice president and coach for South Berkeley Youth Basketball League.
"It's important to be a male role model for these kids," Lee said, adding many of the kids he coaches come from single-parent homes. "It's my job as a man to provide 'good moral fiber' to help these kids know what comprises a good person."
Lee, a man of great faith now, said that even though he grew up in an ecumenical church, he strayed from his Christian roots when he was a teen, like many youngsters do.
He said that when he was around age 20, his mother predicted that he would one day become a pastor.
"Of course I didn't believe her," Lee laughed.
"What do moms know?" he asked. "Everything."
He said after many years of inner struggle with faith, a significant event took place that led him back to a Christ-centered life. At the time, his then 9-year-old daughter, Makayla, developed osteosarcoma, an aggressive form of bone cancer.
"God took us through a very dry place when my daughter became ill and we had to watch her helplessly undergo chemotherapy," he said. "It was then when I realized life was fleeting."
Miraculously, the cancer treatment was successful. Today Makayla is a healthy senior at Musselman High School.
He said Makayla's experience changed his heart and gave him a new appreciation for life.
"It made me realize there was something more God wanted me to do."
Lee said he takes his position as a man very seriously, adding that a God-centered man is both a leader and a role model.
"Too often, we don't look at the male figure as submissive to God," he explained.
"We look at the female as submissive. The crucial point is that a man must be submissive to God so that his family will follow his lead.
"A father and husband has to be patient, understanding and willing to get involved by spending time, not just money, with his children and his wife," Lee said.
"A true measure of a man or woman is commitment to family and self, but most importantly, commitment to God. I don't know how I keep up this schedule, but I do, and it seems natural to me," Lee said.
He added that he relies on the support of his wife, who works full-time as a flight attendant for Southwest Airlines. They share the duties of raising their six children as well as responsibilities for three grandchildren.
"I look at my wife as my partner and my best friend," he continued. "A wife is a person who you can lean on, and who can lean on you. She's not my maid or my cook, or just my 'helper,' she is my right arm."
He encourages anyone interested in learning more about his church to visit www.theworshiplife.org. It meets at 11:45 a.m. Sundays, and it's a growing, welcoming church that embraces people of all backgrounds and all stages of life. On Oct. 29, Minister Angela Williams also will be ordained.
