Overall Cost: Everything onboard is very expensive. To provide a few examples: draft beer=6.50, laundry- t shirt= 4.95, internet access= .40/minute, in room movie rental= 12.00, etc. In addition, every corner you turn on this ship, there is somebody trying to sell you something. Everything from drinks to jewelry and spa treatments. They actually had the girls from the spa working the pool area trying to get people into the spa. I can see having someone outside the spa soliciting business, but to have them hawking business poolside was just tasteless.
On Board Activities: The Second City Comedy Act was decent, but everything else was pretty lame. It's almost impossible to see a show without getting to the theater at least 45minutes before the show. The theater fills quickly. There were a variety of other activities for a price, Bingo=29.00, Beer Tasting=15.00, Margarita tasting=15.00. There were free activities too, mostly seminars on how to buy jewelry during the Ships stops. Are you starting to see the common theme? I felt like I was being nickle and dimed every day on this ship.
Food: There is no nice way to put this, the quality of the food in the main dining rooms is a joke. It is just bad. The selections were limited and the portions were small. Nothing was ever hot and the wait staff seemed cold and indifferent. The buffets were only a little better. Again, the selection was limited and never hot but the quality was better than the dining room. I ended up spending additional money every day after the first night for the specialty restaurants just to get a decent meal. My wife was so upset by her experience in the main dining room that I felt I needed to make it up to her with a good dinner every night. I have no complaints about the specialty restaurants. We ate at Cagney's, Tequila's and the Orchid. All were fantastic. Good service, excellent food and service at all three.
Overall Impression: If money is no object, you can have a nice time on this ship. If you're on a tight budget, consider a different cruise line. I have sailed Carnival twice and have none of the complaints I detailed above with one exception. Carnival is no better than Norwegian with their pricing of drinks and services. You will, however, get far better food and service on a Carnival ship without having to pay an additional 30-40.00 per night for dinner. I will not sail with Norwegian again. I have learned first hand that there is nothing free about Freestyle Cruising.

Chakhkiev Hunts For New Foe as Kamoko Withdraws
By Luke Furman
WBC #1 cruiserweight Rakhim Chakhkiev is looking for a new opponent on May 30 at the Luzhniki Arena in Moscow, Russia. Chakhkiev (18-1, 14 KOs) was scheduled to take on previously undefeated WBC #9 Ghanaian Braimah Kamoko (26-0, 20 KOs) on the undercard of Alexander Povetkin's bout against Manuel Charr, but now the 2008 Olympic gold medal winner is looking for a new opponent after Kamoko suffered a hand injury in camp and was forced to withdraw.
Chakhkiev's manager, Vyacheslav Karakash, stated: "Only recently did Kamoko's manager state that he injured his hand and will not be able to step into the ring. In the near future we will determine another opponent and what the options are."

It was fall 1993, and Henri Gutner's kidneys were continuing to fail. He was always tired, his complexion was green, and he was sleeping as much as 20 hours a day.
"I had him maybe six hours a day when he was capable of doing anything," recalls his wife, Jeri.
With his kidney function down to 8 percent, Gutner, then 43, was told he was facing dialysis and the inevitable disruption it would bring to his - and his wife's - life.
"I said, 'There's no way I'm sending my young husband to dialysis,' " said Jeri Gutner, who is five years younger. "There has to be some way." There was. She donated a kidney to him. The operation at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP) was just the 21st kidney transplant performed there between persons not related by blood. "He came out looking like my husband," she said. The couple now travel, lead a normal life, and head the Keller Williams real estate office in Doylestown.

The purpose of an individual retirement arrangement or IRA – including the Roth IRA – is to provide a flexible, tax-advantaged vehicle that can be used to save for retirement. As such, it was designed to hold a variety of investments for the long term – usually 20 years or more.
Safety – the main objective for retirement investments
The main objective of any investment for retirement is safety: You don't want to invest in anything risky. You may enjoy investing in things like individual stocks or property, but we all know those can be risky investments. When it comes to your retirement funds, you want to stay away from things with inordinate risk.
Flexibility is a good thing (unless it's a bad thing)
The fact that a Roth IRA can be used to hold a variety of investments is good news – it offers flexibility. What's good about it is that you can invest in pretty much any type of investment through your Roth IRA – stocks, bonds, exchange traded funds (ETFs), mutual funds (including index funds), and even real estate.
The bad news is that you can invest in pretty much anything – including things which might not work for you. For instance, if you thought Twitter was going to be a good stock to invest in, you would be banging your head against a wall right now.
Consider this when selecting an investment
With a clear understanding of the purpose of an IRA – that it's a tax-advantaged vehicle designed to help you save for retirement – we can begin to answer the question about which investments are best for a Roth IRA. Here's what to consider:
- Funding. By far, the majority of the population earns their living from a job which typically gives them two paychecks every month – and the Roth IRA is perfect for that since you can easily put away a certain amount every month, a little bit at a time. But investing in rental property is quite a bit more difficult (effectively precluding that type of investment for many) because it requires a big chunk of money at a time.
- Automation. If you're like most people, setting time aside to make investment decisions is a challenge because your life is a daily whirl of activity. The tactic most successful people use is automation: They have a set amount deducted from every paycheck which is then automatically deposited into their Roth IRA account. For automation to work, you want to pick an investment which lends itself to a set amount invested every two weeks or so.
- Basic investing concepts. It's a mistake to jump into investing and make your decisions blindly. Before you begin any investment program, it's important to have an understanding of basic concepts. Here are a few posts on some important topics:
You may also want to Google articles on risk tolerance and asset allocation. To learn more about investing, head to your library and borrow one of the following books:
The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing
A Random Walk Down Wall Street – by Burton Malkiel
The Only Investment Guide You'll Ever Need – by Andrew Tobias
Saving and Investing – by Michael Fischer
These books will help you become acquainted with concepts like asset allocation, diversification, risk tolerance, stock valuation, and more. The better educated you become, the better investment decisions you will make.
Which investments are best for a Roth IRA?
Once you take the considerations above into account, the list of appropriate Roth IRA investments gets narrowed down to three basic options:
- Index funds
- Exchange traded funds (or ETFs)
- Managed mutual funds
Index funds
In general, these funds invest in indexes which are compiled and calculated independently – but to find out more about what index funds really are, you can refer to this article.
Two main attractions with index funds:
- Index funds typically offer the lowest cost to manage your investments. (Since you are not doing it yourself, there's no escaping having to pay someone else. The goal, of course, is to keep that amount as low as possible.)
- Index funds generally outperform managed funds. You would think a mutual fund being run by a paid professional would do better than a market average, but history has consistently proven that to be a false expectation.
By far, the most popular index funds mimic the S&P 500 stock market index. There are other funds which purport to be index funds; however, they don't track an actual index. (Bond funds, for example, are called index funds simply because they offer the low management costs commonly associated with index funds.)
Exchange traded funds (ETFs)
One of the benefits of investing for your retirement through a Roth IRA (or a traditional IRA, for that matter) is the fact that you are not restricted solely to mutual funds. With an IRA, you can invest in individual stocks, which opens the door to ETFs, which are nothing more than mutual funds which trade on a stock exchange just like stocks. (For more information on ETFs, see this article.)
Most ETFs are index funds, but they offer a wider array of specialized investments. For instance, if you want to invest in gold, there are several ETFs which allow you to do that. One such ETF (which uses the GLD symbol) actually owns the gold bars, and they hold more gold than all national governments except the big three.
ETFs offer low costs, but not always quite as low and the index funds referred to above. If cost is an important consideration for you — and it should be – take the time to check out all the costs of anything you want to invest in before you take the plunge.
Managed mutual funds
(For more on managed funds, see this article.) Although somewhat maligned recently, managed mutual funds still account for more than 70 percent of all retirement investment funds. There are a few reasons for that:
- Convenience. Managed mutual funds are usually the most convenient way to invest as an employee.
- Low risk. They are the oldest of the three options listed here, and have proven themselves to be pretty safe in terms of risk.
- Variety. They offer by far the widest variety of specialized investment options. For instance, if you don't want any investment dealing with GMO, tobacco, or other issues, you are more likely to find a managed mutual fund to meet your needs than an ETF or index fund.
The popularity and wide variety of managed mutual funds comes with two penalties, though:
- High cost. Of the three options, managed funds usually are by far the most expensive. You may see rates which look low, e.g., 1.5 percent. Remember, though, that your long term return is unlikely to be more than 7 or 8 percent; that means they will be taking 20 to 50 percent of your annual growth. That's a steep price for many.
- Bewilderment. It is not easy to distinguish between the bewildering arrays of managed mutual funds. They all seem to offer things like value and growth, and you never know which buzzwords are simply marketing gimmicks to get you to pick their fund.
When you consider that index funds and ETFs are generally simpler and cheaper, it's easy to understand why they have grown much more in recent years at the expense of managed funds.
Most people consider the best way to invest through a Roth IRA is by putting your money every month into index funds. They typify the get-rich-slowly ideology. Some of you will want to purchase individual stocks in your Roth IRA. Some will want to purchase real estate, or invest in precious metals. If you make educated decisions, these can be excellent moves. However, for most investors, index funds are a smart way to own a piece of the market while mitigating risk.

Liver Transplant Evaluation Process
The Emory team is comprised of liver transplant surgeons, transplant hepatologists, and a team of gastroenterologists, anesthesiologists, pathologists, radiologists, psychiatrists, chaplains, nurses, social workers, financial coordinators and pharmacists who are all experienced in treating patients with advanced liver disease. This group is well qualified to perform the sophisticated, life-saving surgical procedures involved in liver transplantation and to provide the care required after surgery.
Before you can be considered a candidate for liver transplantation, a thorough evaluation of your physical and emotional status must be completed on an outpatient basis. Your nurse coordinator and schedulers will arrange this for you. The purpose of this evaluation is to determine just how damaged your liver is and whether liver transplantation is the best treatment option for you. During the evaluation, you and your family may have many questions about the evaluation and what to expect when it is over. Various members of the liver transplant team will be available to answer your questions.
We will draw blood to determine your blood type and how well your organs are working. Many different tests will be done during the evaluation to determine how damaged your liver is and to determine if there are other physical problems, such as with your heart, kidneys or lungs, which might rule out liver transplant. A urine test tells us if your kidneys are working well and if you are using illicit drugs. The following tests and procedures MAY be done:
• Chest X-ray
• Electrocardiogram (EKG)
• CT or MRI scan
• Doppler ultrasound (looks at blood flow through the vessels to your liver)
• Dobutamine stress echocardiogram or "stress test" (looks at blood flow through the heart and the valves of your heart)
• Endoscopy/Colonoscopy (a tube is inserted through your mouth into your stomach to look for bleeding or into your colon to assess for bleeding or cancer potential)
• Pulmonary function tests (special breathing tests to check your lungs)
• Additional tests or procedures may be ordered by consulting physicians
Upon completion of the evaluation, your case will be discussed by the team members of the Liver Transplant Selection Committee Meeting. The liver transplant team will then determine if liver transplantation is the best treatment option for you. If this is the case, liver transplantation will be discussed with you in more detail.
Meeting the Team
It is important that you meet all the members of the liver transplant team. Each brings special knowledge that will help you during all phases of the transplant process.
These are some of the people you will meet during the evaluation:
Numerous physicians will be involved in your care. Emory University Hospital is a teaching hospital. Therefore, in addition to your attending transplant physicians, you will be meeting resident physicians to fellows and consulting physicians from many different services. Multiple specialty physicians may participate in your evaluation, including transplant surgeons, transplant hepatologists (medical liver specialists), gastroenterologists, psychiatrists, hematologists (blood specialists), cardiologists (heart specialists), nephrologists (kidney specialists), pulmonologists (lung specialists), anesthesiologists, and experts in the field of infectious diseases.
Liver Transplant Coordinators
The liver transplant coordinators are Registered Nurses who provide education regarding the transplant and closely help manage patients before and after transplantation. Each patient is assigned a transplant coordinator.
The psychiatry staff consists of a clinical nurse specialist and a physician who assess the mental health of patients. They will provide and/or help arrange any treatment therapies as needed.
The interfaith transplant chaplain can help you and your family deal with conflicting emotions and difficult spiritual questions.
The pharmacists are specially trained in transplant care and provide a wide array of information about medications including drug interactions and side effects. The pharmacy staff is an excellent source of drug information.
A dietitian will speak with you about diet recommendations you may need to follow, a healthy body weight for a transplant, and/or changes to your appetite or weight. The dietitian will be available for further nutrition related questions you may have as well.
Social Workers
Clinical social workers play a vital role in assessing your psychological needs, social support, and developing a comprehensive post-transplant plan of care. Your social worker will assist you throughout the phases of your transplant process from pre-liver transplant to post-liver transplant. The transplant social worker is also a viable resource in brokering community recourses, advocating for patient care needs, and providing supportive council and guidance. Your social worker also plays a significant role in the Liver Transplant Selection Committee in assessing if a liver transplant is the best treatment option for you.
Financial Coordinators
A financial coordinator will be assigned to you to help explain your insurance benefits and assist you with any financial issues. The financial coordinator will help you understand the cost of transplantation and your health insurance benefits (see next section). Because this time is stressful, we encourage you to write down your questions so they are all answered before the transplant.

Is Your Automobile Prepared? What Every Car Should Carry
You drive your car to work and to your relatives' houses, but could you live in it? What would happen if one day you found yourself stranded on the side of the road during the snowstorm of the century? It's true that cars are a way to get from point A to point B, but in extreme conditions they also become safe havens for their passengers. No matter the weather, it is always important to have emergency items in your vehicle in the case of an accident or becoming stranded.
Safety Items for the Car
- Tow Chain. With a twenty foot tow chain, a friend or good Samaritan with a decent-sized vehicle could pull you out of a mess and you won't have to pay for a tow truck.
- De-Icer. Have both windshield de-icer and gas line de-icer.
- Distress flag. This doesn't necessarily have to be a flag. Just make sure you have a bright piece of cloth to tie to your antenna so passersby will see that you need help.
- Jumper cables. A basic necessity regardless of the weather or the driving conditions. Batteries can die for a number of reasons.
- Extra oil.
- Shovel. To save space, get a military-style folding shovel. They can be found at Army-Navy stores.
- Spare tire, ratchet for the lug nuts and a jack.
- Ice scraper. This is a must-have item that will often be used for more than just emergencies. You need to rid your windshield of ice before you drive your car.
- Flares or hazard triangles. Three of these should be placed behind your car so passersby will know you need help and so they will drive by carefully in case you are outside of your vehicle.
- Bag of road salt. You wouldn't want to trip and fall while placing the flares.
- Tire pressure gauge. You should be checking your tire pressure at least once a month.
Safety Items for the Passengers
- Cell phone. Never drive with a cell phone that is low on battery. Always charge it before leaving. You can charge it in the car if you have a cord that plugs into your cigarette lighter.
- Map. The accident on the road may not be your own, but it could block the route you're most familiar with. Bring a map so you can find other ways home.
- The heat in your vehicle will not last extended periods, if it works at all. To keep the people in your car warm, bring either a sleeping bag or at least two blankets for everyone.
- Have extra winter clothes in your car in case any of the passengers did not bring theirs. Items on this list include socks, mittens, hats, thick pants and jackets.
- Non-perishable food. Keep it in the trunk so you aren't tempted to eat it before you need it.
- Candles and matches. They are great for heating up the car, but they also burn oxygen. Before lighting a candle, make sure you can open the windows at least slightly to replenish the air in the car.
- Medication. Be sure there are extra dosages of any prescription medications that your passengers will need.
- First Aid Kit. Getting stranded could be the result of an accident. In many car crashes, the passengers get hurt. Have a first aid kit so injuries can be treated, at least temporarily.
- Tissues. These have many uses such as cleaning and insulation.
- Transistor Radio
- Flashlight
- Batteries. These can be used for the flashlight or the radio. Make sure you have the right type(s)
- Water. This is a basic human necessity. Make sure there is enough for everyone. It might be tempting to overfill containers, but in the winter the water could freeze and burst the container.

Quality Education in the Benedictine Tradition
Allied Health Professions
Dr. Michael E. RhodesChair, Preprofessional Health CommitteePhone: 724-805-2360
How can I prepare myself academically for medical school?
You'll need a strong foundation in mathematics and the sciences that relate most to medicine: biology, general chemistry, organic chemistry, and physics. Entrance requirements at most medical schools include completion of course work in biology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, and English.
But a liberal arts education is a key ingredient to becoming a physician, so it's important for your college experience to be well-rounded. Taking courses in the humanities and the social sciences will help you prepare for the "people" side of medicine. The ideal physician understands how society works and can communicate and write well.
Extracurricular activities also are important. You may want to volunteer at a local hospital or clinic to gain practical health care experience.
How do I choose the right school for my premedical education?
Here are some questions to ask when you consider a college or university. Your career guidance counselor or science teacher can help you find the answers. You also should consult the many college guidebooks found in your school's guidance office, local libraries, and bookstores.

My grandmother passed away in December 2007. When she did I realized I didn't know anything about her side of the family so I started searching for them. Find A Grave was a very helpful tool to me. I found out more about my grandmother's side of the family than even my mother knew. Probably more than my grandmother knew. In my search I was able to contribute to Find A Grave in the hopes that I could help others who wanted to know where they came from. My husband and my mother started helping me and we had a lot of fun in our searches. Finding cemeteries took us to a lot of places we'd never been and helped us to have a lot of respect for families and cemeteries. I hope everyone who uses Find A Grave will find a greater appreciation for family and ancestors. We did.

Excellent except that we were told by Viator to meet outside the railway station for our trip to Pisa and it left from a different place so we missed the tour
October 2015
The tour was amazing ..tour guides and leaders was very helpful and kind..but the trip need to be ended back to Rome
June 2015
Organisation for Florence train and hotel transfer was poor though tour in Florence was very good with an excellent local guide. Pisa trip was very good with again an excellent local guide. Venice hotel transfer was good as was tour next day. More information on Hotel addresses and more detailed maps of Florence and Venice would have helped in finding hotels and meeting points for tours.
August 2014
a little disorganized when leaving Rome to Florence but it was a great trip our local guide was awesome. un fortunately I cannot remember his name but he was great very knowledgeable and patient

Pricey 2014 Kia Sorento offers pleasing performance
Kia has raised the bar with its revamped 2014 Sorento crossover.
This is the smaller cousin of the Hyundai Santa Fe, which wins on value and size. Sorento wins on handling and performance, while packing the same engine and transmission.
The new Sorento looks much like its predecessor, and is more attractive than Santa Fe. But the wheelbase also is 4 inches shorter and overall it's 9 inches shorter in length. That makes it look, and feel, a bit sportier. It's also 200 pounds lighter, and that improves its power to weight ratio.
Where the Santa Fe felt heavy and somewhat lumbered away from a stop, the Sorento seems livelier. Both feature Hyundai's new 3.3-liter, DI V6 that creates 290 horsepower. This is a new engine replacing the Kia 3.5-liter V6 that generated 276 horses. The new V6 comes in all trims except the entry level LX, which features a DI I4 that creates 191 hp.
Fuel efficiency dips a bit, according to EPA ratings. I was happy with 23.7 mpg in about 70% highway driving. I'm seeing a pattern here. The EPA rates this model at 18 mpg city and 24 highway, running on regular gas. There also is an ECO mode button to suppress acceleration and reduce gas consumption.
I was driving a bright "snow white pearl" SX Limited, the top-level Sorento, with a starting price of $39,700, not exactly what you're used to seeing on KIA products. Still, it does ride much better than the previous model and was loaded with electronic options.
Kia stiffened the chassis' torsional rigidity by 18% and that results in a better ride. The Sorento's MacPherson struts with coil springs and a stabilizer bar up front and a multi-link system in back — also with a stabilizer bar — do a better job with bump control than the previous suspension, of similar design.
Its steering is handled via a hydraulic power-assist system on a rack and pinion setup, and also offers three modes, like the Santa Fe. So you choose from Sport, Normal and Comfort, with Sport delivering the most pleasant and responsive steering wheel feel. While this is all similar to Santa Fe, the Sorento's steering feel is lighter. Selecting Normal or Comfort lightens it more and makes the crossover more prone to a vague feel that requires some correcting at higher speeds.
Braking is good from four-wheel discs, vented in front, and shifting is smooth from the 6-speed automatic that features Shiftronic, allowing the driver to manually shift, without a clutch, if desired. This model comes with AWD and stability control, too, along with 7.3 inches of ground clearance.
Boat and camper haulers will be glad to know it's rated to tow 3,500 lbs., too.
Inside, I found the Sorento more attractive and comfortable than the Santa Fe, at least from a driver's standpoint. This one had a black leather interior with white stitching on the seats and doors, with matte silver trim around the gauge faces and center stack controls. There's a fake black wood trim on the dash and doors, too, along with the top of the steering wheel and console.
Sorento is quiet inside, and with this gussied-up edition you get a power rear hatch.
What you won't get inside the Sorento is quite as much second- and third-row seat room as in the longer, almost minivan-like Santa Fe. Foot and knee space was more limited here in both rear seats, making it a little difficult to turn and extract your feet from the second row easily. The third row is simply for small children.
That seat is a $1,000 option, which also includes third row air conditioning controls.
Cargo space is also more limited. Where the Santa Fe had 13 cubic feet of cargo room behind he third row seat, the Sorento has 9.1 cubic feet, about enough for four bags of groceries set width-wise behind the seats. Those seats fold nice and flat though and are easy to pull back up with the tug of a strap.
Seats are comfortable, with mostly flat cushions and slight back cushion contouring. Both front- and second-row seats are heated, and the front seats also are ventilated for cooling in summer. A heated steering wheel also is standard on the Limited model.
Other safety options on this model include a rear-view camera and blind-spot warning system that beeps when you flip on the turn signal and there's a car or other obstacle in your blind spot.
Sorento's dash is well laid out, with easy to see and find gauges and buttons. Everything makes sense, and the steering wheel is a manual tilt/telescope number, with radio, trip computer and phone control buttons on the hub.
Overhead is a giant panoramic sunroof. One concern is that you cannot retract just the internal cover all the way to the rear. For that to retract you must open the front portion of the glass sunroof, and then the inner cover will continue opening to its full-open position. The rear portion of the roof does not open.
The test crossover is the priciest Sorento, and this one hit $41,600. You can add a few more options to get exceed $43,000.
For less-affluent buyers, the LX with its I4 engine and 20 mpg city and 26 mpg highway rating starts at $24,100, with front-wheel drive. A V6 powered LX FWD starts at $25,700, if you need the power to haul.
There are 10 trims available with either FWD or AWD and all carry Kia's 10-year/100,000-mile warranty and 24-hour roadside assistance.

RIM Drops PlayBook's Price (Production?) After Kindle Fire
Just hours after Amazon revealed its new line of Kindle devices -- especially the semi-clone Kindle Fire -- RIM decided to knock a meaty $200 off the pricetag of its three BlackBerry PlayBook tablets.
The price cut has been spotted over at Best Buy where the electronics retailer is offering the 16 GB model for $299 (from $499), the 32 GB model for $399 (from $599) and the 64 GB model for $499 (from $699). This sale seems to be good for both online and offline purchases, and there's no clear indication that this is a brief promotional price reduction, or a permanent thing. Still, those wanting to grab the 16 GB version may have to wait, as the site lists it as "back ordered" -- the other two are still available.
The sudden price drop is seemingly blamed on Amazon's just-announced 7-inch Kindle Fire Android tablet which reportedly uses the 7-inch PlayBook's base hardware as a template, but with several reductions: there's only 8 GB of on-board storage (but additional cloud storage), the front and rear cameras have been removed, there's no micro-HDMI port, and the battery only lasts up to 7.5 hours (the PlayBook offers 10 hours). Reports claim that it uses a similar Texas Instruments dual-core SoC, but clocked at a slower rate.
Naturally the big difference between the $199 8 GB Kindle Fire and the $299 16 GB BlackBerry PlayBook is the storage capacity and the operating system. But RIM's sudden price reduction may not be solely attributed to the Kindle Fire launch, as the company was forced to dramatically cut down on production of its tablets due to poor sales at its original price point. Like HP, RIM simply may have chosen to hack prices in order to get product rolling off the shelves.
Best Buy's Canadian Web site, Staples and even Walmart kicked off similar discounts for the PlayBook earlier this week, but not quite as drastic. As seen here, Staples is now selling all three tablets with their original pricetag, but is also offering a $100 instant coupon and an additional $100 instant rebate on all three models. Best Buy Canada knocked $100 off the original price and threw in an additional $100 store gift card.
UPDATE: Analysts are now claiming that RIM may have actually halted production of the tablet. "We believe RIM has stopped production of its PlayBook and is actively considering exiting the tablet market," Collins Stewart semiconductor analyst John Vihn wrote in a note obtained by Reuters. "Additionally, our due diligence indicates that RIM has canceled development of additional tablet projects."
RIM reportedly shipped 500,000 PlayBooks in the last six weeks of its fiscal first quarter, and another 200,000 in its full second quarter.
AnonymousIt's all about content. Kindle Fire has books, movies, music and games on tap. Playbook just can't compete with it's lack of apps, and the Android emulator is crippled from the get-go. RIM's only hope is to abandon delusions about media consumption and focus on it's unparalleled messaging platform in phones and, possibly--possibly--come back later with a productivity-driven tablet if the QNX phones save them and the Web transitions to a more app-less HTML5 world.
the netbook trail got bad because of tablets. netbooks were so weak all they could be used for is an internet surfing machine and all tablets look like the netbook evolved
i may try to get one of the kindle fires just so i can root it and make it a tablet with a full android OS. if not the 8GB acer iconica is looking good too since it has an SD slot that can use up to a 32GB memory crad

The Morning Read: 'Spider-Man' makes his first swing over Broadway
Welcome to The Morning Read.
Last night, up to the moment I heard about Leslie Nielsen's death, I was totally focused on the early reactions to last night's first preview performance of the long-in-development musical "Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark." Then this morning, it was Irvin Kershner's death that rocked me, so it's a late start getting back to the business of seeing what's going on out there. I'm jealous of anyone who goes to see this production in New York. I have a feeling it's something you'll want to be able to say you saw later, when it is the stuff of legend and myth. With an original score by Bono and the Edge, directed by Julie Taymor, and produced at a rumored cost of $65 million, which would make it the most expensive stage production of all time, this is a blockbuster by design, but by no means a sure thing.
For years now, it's seemed impossible to believe it would ever actually open. Even now, based on the reports that are emerging from the preview performance, it sounds like there are a number of fundamental issues they're still working out. The New York Times is probably the most authoritative source to weigh in so far, but there's also a handful of reviews up at AICN and there are message boards and industry blogs where more reactions are appearing. You can run a Google search on "Turn Off The Dark reviews" and more and more reactions are showing up from the 1900 people who were there. By and large, it sounds like last night was a glimpse at what they hope the show will be, and not the show itself. I'm not a big Taymor fan, but I've been curious. I think this show sounds like a collection of all of her worst tendencies, wrapped in some borrowed iconography. It doesn't sound to me like she's added any real insight to the archetypes or the specific character of Peter Parker, and I'm not sure the Cirque Du Soleil spectacle of it is enough to justify all of this energy.
Whatever the case, here's the piece that ran last night on "60 Minutes" about the show, which is just a basic friendly behind-the-scenes glimpse.
Still, this is early in the process, and six weeks from now, a radically different show could well open officially. At that point, it will be time to judge "Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark." For now, consider last night a bold stumble on the way to their opening, and no more significant than that.
George Lucas has spoken up in regards to Irvin Kershner's passing.
I'm intrigued by the cast that's coming together for "Cloud Atlas," the next film by the Wachowskis. Halle Berry let slip during a recent press conference that she's planning to appear in the film next summer with Tom Hanks and Natalie Portman. For those who have been predicting the end of the Wachowskis post-"Speed Racer," it would seem to me that a cast like that pretty much puts that question to bed. I haven't read the novel that they're adapting, but it has its ardent supporters, and it's interesting to see the secrecy-minded Wachowskis working with material that is readily available. If this does come together, I suspect we'll have quite a bit of "Cloud Atlas" coverage.
I don't always agree with Mike D'Angelo… in fact, I'd go so far as to say that I rarely agree with him, but I've been reading him as long as I've been online, which is to say for at least fourteen years now. And I think he's always an engaging read, especially when he is passionate about something. It's worth being passionate about "Afterschool," the film by Antonio Campos, and this is a wonderful breakdown of just what makes the film special and why Campos is someone we should all be paying attention to at this point.
I was worried when I saw the headlines that we were either in for a conventional biopic of Pink Floyd or a remake of "The Wall," but it looks like there may be a film on the way that tells the story of the kids who sang on the iconic 1979 single "Another Brick In The Wall" and the schoolteacher who got them the gig. It's being described by producer Andy Harries and screenwriter Steven Thompson as "'Dead Poets Society' meets 'School Of Rock'," and I'll admit… it sounds like a good story to me. Color me curious.
This is the first review I've read of the UK cut of "A Serbian Film," which is roughly four-and-a-half minutes shorter than the version I reviewed at SXSW this year. This is the version I have a feeling a lot of the world will end up seeing. I know that it's been purchased for American distribution, but I still have no idea what version of the film they plan on releasing here or how.
As someone who obviously has incorporated Twitter into my daily communicative life, I try not to get too strategy-minded about how I use it, as evidenced by my Thanksgiving-evening drunken "Seven Samurai" live-tweet. But this article has convinced me not to use the "retweet" button on Twitter anymore. Well-argued.
Speaking of social media and its applications, the best thing I read all weekend online was this piece about a guy who is using negative energy to power his business. It's frustrating and infuriating and hilarious, and it is a wonderful snapshot of Internet culture.
Are you excited for "Game Of Thrones" on HBO?
How about now?
Peter Sciretta did a great job over the weekend of taking the recent output of Kevin Smith and his ever-expanding SModCast empire and parsing out of it whatever news there was to post, following up with Smith to clarify and to nail down a few exclusives. I love the idea of Smith holding an auction in the actual Sundance theater after his first screening, selling it to a distributor right there in the room. Of course, that's presuming he made it into Sundance. If he goes, great. If he doesn't, I'm sure he'll be fine and end up making exactly the deal he hopes to make on the film. It can't be a wildly expensive package, and it sounds to me like an incredibly easy film to market. Richard Kelly, who screened "Southland Tales" at Smith's SModCastle and who sat down for a gigantic interview with Smith, has actually seen "Red State," and spoke a little about it.
Thank god we're safe from Mark Ruffalo. The long national nightmare is over.
I don't buy it. I think it's just deranged to accuse Jackson and company of racism.
I don't know who David Freed is, but I feel comfortable calling him a cretin. This piece in The LA Times is an embarrassment. He's perfectly free to not enjoy "Neptune's Daughter," but responding by writing a piece that purports to blow the lid of the non-scandal of how star ratings are devised for cable guides is asinine. Just because one person doesn't care for vintage films, that doesn't negate their worth, and it only proves just how worthless it is to put any trust or faith in numerical scores for something as personal as art.
And while we're speaking of worthless cretins, if there's a list of them somewhere, please put this guy on that list. What a disgusting, ill-informed piece. This guy genuinely has no idea what he's writing about, and seeing such naked hate in print is almost dizzying.
This is an important piece about the way life in North Korea is right now, and I have no qualms in calling the people who put it together and smuggled it out heroic.
#3. Awesome.
This sounds like it's going to be a description of the most apocalyptic event imaginable. Imagine my disappointment.
On that note, I'm going to bail. I've got lots more to do this afternoon, and I have to be ready to travel on Wednesday. I have to go on a trip that sounds like absolute torture. No, seriously. It's work. Difficult, difficult work that I won't enjoy at all. Pinky swear.
The Morning Read appears here every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Except when it doesn't.

Red Eye Le Pumpkin Royale
RATINGS: 2 MEAN: 3.77/5.0 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.08/5 SEASONAL: Autumn EST. CALORIES: 183 ABV: 6.1%
A Belgian-style pumpkin Saison
Fall is definitely here with our first fall seasonal... "LE PUMPKIN ROYALE". This tasty treat is based on a Belgian-style Saison, with a twist.....wood-fire roasted pumpkins. We sourced the pumpkins from our favorite local organic grower, Blaine Tornow at Moonshadow farms. They were then roasted in our wood-fired oven oven, and added to the mash tun with our grains, extracting both flavor and color. We finished off the beer with an addition of pumpkin pie spice at kettle off, so as not to lose too much of the aroma from the spices. We then pitched a yeast from Belgiums Brasserie Dupont, a well known producer of the style. Retaining the spice aromatics could prove to be a formidable task, as Saisons are fermented at incredibly high temperatures in comparison to our most beers, often approaching 90 degrees! This makes for a violent fermentation, with lots of Co2...or scrubbing "bubbles". This beer will be a hazy orange in color, with unique yeast-generated aromas combining with pumpkin and spice, for unique beer that will only come once a year.

Paving the way for street work
BREAUX BRIDGE – The City Council Tuesday accepted the low bid of H&S Construction Co. of Broussard for $2,656,388.42 to resurface streets all over town.
Engineer Calvin Courville of Domingue Szabo & Associates, Inc., of Lafayette, said the bids – including one from St. Martinville's M. Matt Durand – were higher than he expected but still a fair market price.
Like gasoline, the price of asphalt has been slow in reflecting the retreating cost of crude oil, Courville said.
"Whether it will continue to go down or go up is not certain," he said in recommending acceptance of the bid.
The City of Breaux Bridge borrowed $3 million 3.66 percent interest to do the work.
Courville said there's enough money in the budget to do all of the streets in Priority I and II and half a dozen streets in Priority III. He said the crews will tackle Main Street first and then let geography and logistics determine their progress rather than bounce all over town to follow the list on paper.
All the streets should be down within four months, he said.
The streets were assigned priorities based on their condition and the amount of traffic they normally carry.

Hey ladies!
How is everyone, first off? I haven't been by here in a while and wanted to drop by and see how things were going.
For me, I'm technically 26 weeks and 4 days today, but Levi is measuring almost 29 weeks already! My uterus is also measuring 29 weeks (:
I've had a few health scares and concerns, for one I had contractions that landed me in l&d a few weeks ago. When they finally stopped, I contracted Norovirus, which I had for a week (finally getting better starting yesterday). I also got dx with pubic symphysis seperation, which is super painful. ):
In other news, I'm not showing at all yet! Which is super crazy to me... since this is my second pregnancy. People don't believe or think I'm pregnant when they see me, which is super annoying, especially when you are in the Social Security office for 2.5 hours and no one offers you a seat to sit down. This pic was a few days ago.
Crazy, right? My doc is kind of getting on to me about my weight gain, but I haven't been able to eat much at all (on top of having a virus) because Levi has decided to take up my entire abdomen and squish my stomach to the point where I have no room for it to expand to eat. I am lucky to choke down a half a banana for breakfast, a spoon a peanut butter for lunch, and some yogurt and almonds for dinner. He is just so big, I have no room to eat anything! I'm starting to drink ensure drinks to get the vitamins, minerals, proteins, calories I need to make sure he keeps growing.
So I hope everyone is doing well and I can't wait to hear from you guys!
