Lee Young-ae (born January 31, 1971) is a South Korean actress. She has appeared in the Korean historical drama Dae Jang Geum, and as a revenge seeking single mother in Park Chan-wook's crime thriller film Sympathy for Lady Vengeance.
Lee made her debut as a TV model in 1991. After appearing in T.V. commercials, she started playing in T.V. dramas and movies.
She came to prominence in South Korea after starring in the drama Dae Jang Geum. The show was then aired overseas and became exceptionally popular in mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka and Cambodia.[2][3] In 2005, nearly half the population of Hong Kong watched the finale of the drama.[4] In mainland China, hundreds of million of viewers watched the drama despite the fact that it was shown late at night.[5]
She was awarded Best Actress in the 2005 Blue Dragon Film Awards and 2006 Baeksang Art Awards for her performance in the film Sympathy For Lady Vengeance.
Because of her success, Lee Young-Ae has been invited to visit mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and Japan. In 2006, for the first time in 12 years, NHK had to use NHK Hall to host the NHK show due to her popularity. She was invited to the 2007 Harbin International Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival in China.[6]
In her 2006 autobiography "Young-Ae's Vow",[7] she recalled how she became an actress. She first entered show business after working with Andy Lau in a 1991 chocolate advertisement. In 1995, she made the decision to go to graduate school in order to learn theory of acting. Since then, she has challenged herself in various kinds of acting roles, like that in Dae Jang Geum and later a very different role in Sympathy For Lady Vengeance.
In 2007, she received the Medal of Culture Merit for her contribution to Korean Wave from the South Korean government.[8]
Her major contract in 2006 and 2007 was with LG Corp., a large South Korean conglomerate. She became the Pan-Asian spokesmodel for all LG Electronics' products.
Besides her acting career, she has also been involved with several charities. In 1997 she went to Ethiopia as a NGO Goodwill Ambassador. She went to Thar Desert in 1999 to do a TV show about people in India's lowest social caste. Later in 2001, she published these experiences in her autobiography "A Most Special Love"[9] and donated the income from the sale of the book to charity.
She was appointed a Goodwill Ambassador in 2004 by UNICEF and has since held several charity functions. She has made many donations to schools and hospitals, including the Chosun First Middle School in Harbin[10] and an elementary school in China that was thereafter renamed Lee Young-Ae Elementary School.[11]
In July 2014, Taiwanese media reported that Lee had privately assisted a pregnant Taiwanese woman who was vacationing with her husband in Seoul. The woman gave birth to her daughter prematurely and the infant had several complications. Lee found out about the couple through her friend and decided to pay their medical bills, which amounted to around NT$4 million (US$134,000) because the infant required two surgeries and constant medical care after she was born.[12]
Her popularity in Sri Lanka ultimately led to the creation of the "Sujatha Diyani Scholarship Fund" in 2014 where she donated US$100 000. The fund aims at providing financial assistance to female students of low income families.[13]
Personal life[edit]
On August 24, 2009, Lee married Jeong Ho-young, a Korean-American businessman 20 years her senior, in the United States.[14] On February 20, 2011, Lee gave birth to twins, one boy and one girl, at the Jeil Hospital in Jung-gu, Seoul.[15]

Waves Crashing on Rocks
In the region of Calabria, Italia, used a bag of dried rice as my tripod. This was around a 5 second exposure if I can remember correctly. From the film days with my Nikon FM 10 using the bulb setting and cable release. During an outing with nearly 10 friends. I always have tried to merge enjoying life and sneaking in some picture taking while hanging out. More recently it's not so subtle so my friends simply tolerate me doing this sort of thing. This was in 2003.

Getting It All Together
10 comments:
- Alyx Morgan said...
I, too, suffer from perfectionist thoughts, Linda. I'd like to blame it on the media & commercials that tell you how you "should" look, act, be, etc, but if I'm honest with myself, I think it's just part of my psyche right now. I'm working on overcoming it & am so thrilled that you've found a way to beat it already!
YAY you!

It's all about priorities, Linda. No one can "have it all together" in every aspect of life. It's the reason I didn't even try to write while my children were young. My priority at the time was them, not me.
And then, when I'm busy achieving in one area of my life, others slide. I always try to discover what I can do that will accomplish two things at one time.
Like yesterday when the wind blew, and I was out cleaning and sealing my wooden decks--why those glossy women's magazines didn't tell me that I could condition my hair with Thompson's Water Seal, I'll never know. Got both accomplished lickity-split!

I remember when i first heard the phrase "good enough" parenting. I shared that a lot with families I worked with. Perfect is the enemy of competent. I know, Linda, that as a writer you strive for constant improvement of your skills. So do I. I recently spoke to someone who said she "dreams about perfect sentences and perfect paragraphs." Those are dreams that never come true in this life. Aim for perfection and we will always be disappointed. Aim for improvement and we will sometimes succeed.

- Linda Rodriguez said...
Alyx, I think the media and commercials that present Photoshopped women's bodies and made-for-the-studio homes do feed the perfectionist in those of us who have that leaning. But I think that tendency often has its roots in a parent or other childhood authority figure.
I haven't beaten it, and I know I may never. I've learned not to let it control me--most of the time. :-)
- April 14, 2012 at 10:38 AM

LOL, EB! Why, indeed, don't the women's magazines tell us these useful things!
- April 14, 2012 at 10:40 AM
- Linda Rodriguez said...
Warren, I remember when I first learned the "good enough" concept in parenting. It was definitely an eye-opener--and only with my youngest when the two older kids were almost grown. I'd had a horrible childhood, and I was determined MY kids would have the best childhood ever!
I try to aim for the Japanese concept of "kaizen" in my life now. "Kaizen" involves making constant small improvements that eventually build into large ones.

The saddest obituary I ever read was where the woman was eulogized as "She loved to clean." Fortunately, I was past that stage in my life, if I ever was there. But I know it seemed more important to me when my children were young. It didn't help that Mrs. Clean, who polished her doorknobs, lived across the street from me. I always worried she'd come to visit. Whether or not she actually did let her eyes wander to find cobwebs, I felt that was what she was doing.
With age comes priorities. Do I have it all together now? Of course not, and yes I still fuss about the house when I'm expecting company, but by and large I can't write, garden, have friends, family, pets and worry too much about my housekeeping. I don't know how my obituary will read, but one thing I do know, it won't
say "She loved to clean."
I dress for comfort now, too. I'd much rather be comfortable than fashionable.
- April 14, 2012 at 2:26 PM
- Linda Rodriguez said...
Hah, Gloria! Your story about "She loved to clean" reminds me of when Ben and I had first started living together. Joseph was very young, and Ben took him shopping for my birthday present. Joseph insisted on buying me this little book title "100 Ways to Clean Anything." Ben said he thought it might not be the best choice. Joseph looked up at his new stepfather and said, "Trust me. I know what she likes." He's still living it down today.
Of course, I'm more relaxed about my house than I used to be--and again I'm not because I don't let anyone come over since it's a mess. I've promised myself that, when I'm home from my book tour, I'll clean it up enough to bear examination and invite everyone over again.
- April 14, 2012 at 5:52 PM
- Gloria Alden said...
That's a funny story. Kids, even grown kids, think they know us better than they actually do.
It's even harder to keep a house clean when you have pets, isn't it?
Especially a big dog. I also have two cages of birds - two African ring-necked doves in one large cage and Pavarotti, a little yellow canary in another. They are quite messy, especially when they're molting.
- April 15, 2012 at 9:44 AM
- Linda Rodriguez said...
Yes, Gloria, it is harder to keep a house clean with pets. I have a big dog and an old long-haired cat. And an old house. They're much harder to keep clean than new ones.
But the truth is that I've been too focused on writing and all the business of publishing to do much more than the minimum. It's just not been a current priority.

"I'm tired of hitting my teammates," McCoy says. "I want to take this anger out on some other teams."
McCoy, a 6-1, 215-pounder from Washington D.C., will get that chance Sept. 2, when Tennessee hosts California in the season opener. He probably won't start but he should see considerable action as a backup.
After starring in spring scrimmages, McCoy was relatively quiet in last Saturday night's dress rehearsal. Perhaps that was because Tennessee did more passing than running, limiting his opportunities to make the bone-jarring tackles he is known for.
Or maybe Tennessee's offensive players were running away from him. McCoy says the Vols have "a lot of speed" on offense, adding: "They were busting their butts. They knew we're getting closer to the season and everybody was giving their all."
After being dominated by Tennessee's defense in scrimmage No. 1, the attack unit was more competitive in scrimmage No. 2.
"The offense made a couple of plays," McCoy grudgingly conceded, "but the defense came on later."
McCoy loves the fact Tennessee's quarterback is no longer wearing a green jersey to prevent him from being tackled. That took some getting used to, though.
"They said he was full-go last scrimmage but the defense still didn't get to pitch," McCoy noted. "It was a teammate, and we wanted to ease up a little This time we were popping pads with the quarterback also."

Bigger is better!
After a few enchanting hours perusing the new AC world, I was left with a sense of frustration. Why? Well, my eyes hurt, my hands were cramped up and I had trouble catching even the laziest fish! I couldn't use codes (that meant working harder!) and I kept dropping the stylus while writing letters or fumbling with my inventory. The concept was a good one, but it could not be fully realized in the world of the handheld game! I'm going to use my old GBA to take a trip to the good old Animal Island! >sniff!< What a letdown!

New London — The City Council voted 4-3 Monday night to end the city's appeal of a state mediation board decision and rehire a police officer who had been fired for shooting the unarmed driver of a stolen ice truck.
The narrow decision to rehire Officer Thomas Northup comes after months of executive sessions by the City Council and against the wishes of Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio.
Finizio fired Northup on March 22, 2012, for "use of excessive and unreasonable force," following an internal investigation into the Aug. 24, 2011, shooting of Curtis Cunningham. It was determined through an internal investigation by the police department that Northup made a premature and unauthorized decision to use deadly force.
But the state Board of Mediation and Arbitration said the city did not present credible evidence to establish that Northup's use of force was "not objectively reasonable or that it was excessive," or prove that Northup knew that the suspect did not have a gun. Not only did the board order Northup's reinstatement but said he should be compensated for lost pay.
Finizio maintains the board's decision was "terrible … and fundamentally and legally flawed."
"I maintain that it is not only appropriate but imperative an officer found to have violated department policies on the use of deadly force be separated from their employment with the city," Finizio said Monday. "I still wholeheartedly agree with the appeal … however, this decision is ultimately not mine or the police administration's alone to make. The council has rendered its decision, and I respect the decision they reached."
Finizio said he would order Northup's immediate return to the department. It was unclear Monday night if Northup will receive back pay.
Court filings in the case show the two sides were in the middle of some type of settlement talks. Finizio declined to comment.
Council President Wade Hyslop, who voted to continue the appeal, has said it was within the city's legal right.
Hyslop and councilors Erica Richardson and Efrain Dominguez voted against ending the appeal. Councilors Anthony Nolan, Michael Passero, Martin Olsen and Michael Tranchida voted to end the appeal.
Passero has maintained the city was violating its contractual agreement by challenging the arbitrator's decision. He said Monday he understood the appeal was initiated in part to preserve the city's options but he was never in favor of it.
Nolan called it a challenging decision, but "in the best interests of the city."
Olsen said he felt strongly that the state board clearly outlined the issue and that the city was in the wrong for firing Northup. He said it was financially and morally the right thing to do to let Northup back to work.
Northup shot Curtis Cunningham four times on Aug. 24, 2011, following a chase through the city that led to a crash. Cunningham was standing in the overturned truck when Northup yelled for him to "drop the weapon," before Northup fired five shots. Northup told investigators he believed Cunningham had a gun and Cunningham had refused to remove his hands from his under his shirt.
Cunningham later tested positive for PCP, according to police reports. Cunningham, who was 27 at the time of the shooting, has filed a federal lawsuit against the city and Northup. He pleaded guilty in January to his involvement in stealing the ice truck. He was sentenced to one year in prison, suspended after three months served and two years' probation.

Cross Country Skiing Col du Lautaret

SNOW 60cm+ 27 Dec Vallouise
At long last the snow has come. Today we had a huge dump so now all the pistes will be open at Puy Saint Vincent and Pelvoux, plus all the cross country skiing.
Puy Saint Vincent officially the cheapest of the top 20 ski resorts in France.
Skiing can be an expensive hobby so a new league table listing the country's cheapest ski resorts could come in handy for those on a budget.
Accommodation site Locasun has come up with a pricing classification system for 20 of the most popular ski resorts in France based on the cost per kilometre. And the title for the cheapest resort goes to Serre Chevalier in the southern French Alps, where the price of speeding downhill works out at just €2 per kilometre.
However, if size is taken out of the equation and the resorts are ranked on cost alone – including accommodation, lift passes and equipment hire – Serre Chevalier drops to the middle of the table, with a week's stay costing on average €499 per person, while Puy-Saint-Vincent in the Hautes Alpes comes out cheapest, with a week's stay costing €363.72.
Check out this article:
Puy Saint Vincent, and Pelvoux ski stations open 13/12/14 - 19/04/15
A 6 day pass for Pelvoux is only €75 and includes a day at PSV. A 6 day pass for PSV is €153 and gives you the right to also spend a day skiing at each of the following: Serre-Chevalier/Briancon, Montgenevre, Sestrieres/La voie lactee, Les 2 Alpes, L'Alpe d'Huez, La Grave and Pelvoux.

Tiptree Award goes to Kiernan novel, Salaam collection
Caitlin R. Kiernan's novel "The Drowning Girl: A Memoir" and Kiini Ibura Salaam's story collection "Ancient, Ancient" have been named winners of the annual James Tiptree Jr. Award, presented each Memorial Day weekend at the WisCon sci-fi convention in Madison.
Founded in 1991, the Tiptree is a literary prize awarded by a jury each year for "science fiction or fantasy that expands or explores our understanding of gender." Its title comes from the masculine pen name of the late Alice B. Sheldon, who wrote excellent science fiction under the Tiptree name. When the sci-fi world discovered that the presumed male Tiptree was a female writer, a lot of discussion followed. »Read Full Blog Post

For anyone who is thinking of buying a Contech movements Scarecrow Sprinkler to use as the cat deterrent to keep cats and dogs (and other animals) away from your personal yard or garden, the information here is a review of the CRO101 style of the Motion Scarecrow but it will surely explore some pros and cons additionally other things you'll want to keep in mind consume a purchase it.
First, a reason of how this particular motion-activated sprinkler works.
The motion Scarecrow is a pulsating lawn sprinkler which starts up suddenly in addition to operates for just a few seconds (rotating back and forth) to bottle of spray an arc of waters over a thousand-square-foot area. You could adjust the arc to overpower the area sprayed.
Whenever often the motion detector sprinkler picks up an animal in its "field connected with view, " its immediate activation of a pulsating mode of water sweeping backward and forward for several second startles (and annoys) the intruder.
Often the Scarecrow is supposed to detect pets or animals in a thousand square base area and can be used to hold not only cats but pets, geese, rabbits, and squirrels out of a particular area of your personal yard. Since the motion-detector is effective both day and night, it can be mainly useful as a repellent next to nocturnal animals like deer, skunks, and raccoons.
Mainly because animals (and people) cannot stand to be sprayed unexpectedly having water, they quickly be able to avoid the area protected by sprinkler. So if you have persons cutting across parts of your personal yard as a shortcut, as well as neighbors who walk all their dogs to your property to try and do their "business, " then the motion sprinkler may be the great deterrent. If they complain, you are able to claim it's there to have stray cats and racoons off your property.
Construction: Often the sprinkler is made mostly connected with plastic and has a distinctive, cartoon-looking crow's head for the scattering unit. I personally don't like often the looks of the crow crown but perhaps it helps often the animals quickly recognize it in "conditioning process. micron
Even the 17-inch mounting share is plastic, so do definitely not try to hammer it with if your ground is hard. Initially, soften the ground with waters or hammer a joblessness or something else into the yard to create a hole so that you can simply insert the stake.
Often the Scarecrow sprinklers have a manufacturer's two-year limited warranty in addition to, according to the reviews for this along with Contech products, the company possesses an excellent customer service department.
That cat repellent sprinkler works on the 9-volt battery which you'll have got to buy yourself. Each power supply should last at least thirty days or more, but that's motivated partly by how often often the sprinkler is activated. It can be nice to have extra battery power on hand.
Of course , the unit need to be connected to a garden hose which will must be left turned on on a regular basis. If you have only one outside water filters, you may want to buy a two as well as three-way "splitter" connector which will screws onto your spigot so that you could attach more than one hose in addition. That will allow you to use another hose without having to disconnect your Movements Scarecrow..
In my own scenario, my faucet leaked a little whenever I used my very own garden hose so I had to purchase a new washer for the hose-pipe before being able to use the Scarecrow. Actually, I also ended up requiring you to wrap the end of the hose-pipe connector with plumber's Teflon tape which you can find on plumbing supply places, Household Depot or Lowe's. Although this leak was a issue with my hose and faucet, definitely not the sprinkler, itself. You have to be aware that before leaving your personal Scarecrow turned on for comprehensive periods, you'll want to make sure you do not leaks in the hose themselves, or where the hose logs onto to the faucet or to often the sprinkler.
Of course , except when it is activated, the sprinkler is absolutely not supposed to be using water. When it is activated, it functions only about a cup connected with water. So even in parts experiencing water shortages employing your motion activated sprinkler shouldn't be a major drain on your waters resources. In any case, you may want to be sure that you position your Contech Scarecrow so that when activated is in reality watering your garden at the same time it's mainly scaring off animals.
Should you have a large yard, you may want 3 or even 3 of these sections. Figure out where you can strategically position them to give you the most protection together with the fewest number of sprinklers-perhaps within the natural entrances into your property or garden area. We would recommend getting just one system to start with to make sure it complies with your needs. If you buy more, you should consider that the multiple units is usually hooked up "in series" having hoses running from one system to the next so that you have to link up only the first hose to the faucet. Just remember to check often the hoses regularly for coolant leaks. And remember to turn off the waters before approaching the sections so that you won't end up getting wet, damp yourself.
The drawbacks with the Contech Scarecrow: If you need to shield an area of your yard which is pretty far away from your out of doors faucet, you'll have to run longer distances of garden hose into the Motion Scarecrow. That can be high priced and maybe unsightly. And, for anyone who is running the hoses all over your lawn, you'll have to take care of moving them when chopping the grass. A minor exasperation.
Those who live in the north states or colder places will have to worry about their tubes freezing in the winter. So your property may be unprotected during the winter. But perhaps using the sprinkler during the warmer months to try and do your "animal training" will likely be sufficient. When you disconnect often the hose, you may want to leave often the Scarecrow in place during the winter weather in hopes that the animals have already been conditioned to fear the distinct crow's head style of often the sprinkling unit.
If you stay in an area with water holding back on or restrictions on backyard watering, you may not be able to makes use of the sprinkler (even though the item uses only a tiny degree of water each time it's stimulated. ) NOTE: In some these cases where using Contech Scarecrow sprinkler is unrealistic, you may want to install a similar, motion-detector cat-deterrent called the CatStop Ultrasonic Outdoor Cat Deterrent. The item startles animal intruders by means of suddenly emitting a high-frequency ultrasonic squeal (above the stove of human hearing. )
Since these self-contained, battery-powered CatStop units don't make use of water, they can be used 365 days a year in colder climates and may also overcome some of the water-shortage complications listed above. Plus, the motion-detector ultrasonic units can be put with areas of your yard everywhere it's impractical to run a new garden hose. On the Pros edge: the Scarecrow motion detector sprinkler is environmentally-friendly given it humanely deters and repels cats and other nuisance pets or animals without the use of dangerous compounds, traps, or other units.
And, if you live in a new neighborhood, subdivision, or gated community where fences usually are prohibited, or your yard is so large that fence is prohibitively expensive, bothersome, then this Scarecrow motion-activated sprinkler may be one of your better someone deterrent alternatives.
In summary: Faced with repeatedly angry because your the next door neighbors cats (or other prank animals) are ruining your personal lawn, garden, or water-feature, then you'll probably find the Contech Scarecrow motion detector sprinkler to be a good addition to the cat deterrent arsenal.

Sergio Martinez: Gennady Golovkin Still Isn't On My Level
By Keith Idec
As he prepares to officially start training camp in Madrid, Sergio Martinez is fully focused on his June 7 fight against Miguel Cotto.
The WBC middleweight champion won't even talk about how many times he intends to fight after facing Cotto at Madison Square Garden. But if the Argentine southpaw's injury-ravaged body holds up and he conquers Cotto in their HBO Pay-Per-View main event, don't count on the 39-year-old Martinez embracing a showdown with Gennady Golovkin in his following fight.
Some boxing fans and media believe the knockout artist from Kazakhstan has supplanted Martinez (51-2-2, 28 KOs) as boxing's best middleweight. The valid debate aside, boxing Golovkin obviously represents a serious risk for Martinez and he wants to make sure the highly anticipated fight is worthwhile financially if he were to sign up for that type of danger.
"Golovkin still has to catch up territory-wise," Martinez said during the recently completed press tour for the Martinez-Cotto fight. "We earned the spot. Obviously, Golovkin is working his way there, but he still has to work a little more to get to our level. It looks like he's going to get there, but he's not there yet."
Martinez is ranked No. 9 on BoxingScene.com's pound-for-pound list. He has not fought since he overcame an eighth-round knockdown during his closer-than-expected unanimous-decision victory over England's Martin Murray (26-1-1, 11 KOs) on April 27 in Buenos Aires.
The 31-year-old Golovkin (29-0, 26 KOs) is one the sport's most active world champions, but he has taken an indefinite break from boxing to mourn the recent death of his father. Golovkin was supposed to defend his WBA middleweight title against Ireland's Andy Lee (31-2, 22 KOs) on April 26 in The Theater at Madison Square Garden. It is not known when he'll return to the ring or if the Lee fight, which would've been broadcast by HBO, will be rescheduled.
Keith Idec covers boxing for The Record and Herald News, of Woodland Park, N.J., and BoxingScene.com. He can be reached on Twitter @Idecboxing.
Golovkin, as a fighter, is doing what he needs to do, KO people and create some buzz. His resume is what it is; nothing special, but he's KO'ed almost everybody he's faced. Let's be realistic regarding Sergio though; At 37…Comment by Thurman on 03-21-2014

It's been a few weeks since we've done a Friday Favors post, so get ready this one is so fabulous you're going to want to make these this weekend. Here they are – the cutest, most adorable umbrella party favors filled with jelly beans! Arent' they the cutest ever? These are from the fabulous site UnoriginalMom.com. I love how many possibilities with colors and themes there are for these favors..
Fall is upon us, and that means that fall brides are heading into "crunch time" to get all of their details ironed out for their big day! Today we have a special guest post from Ginny Krauss, international wedding expert and the mastermind behind The Wedding Concierge, to tell us about one of the hottest wedding trends this year – a rich, bold berry and mustard color palette! Fall is.
We're heading into the fall and winter wedding seasons where the spring pastels and bright summer colors are being traded in for darker autumn shades and the most traditional color palette of all – black & white! I absolutely adore a black & white themed wedding – it is a classic, sophisticated and elegant theme for any wedding or event and adds a big splash of glamour. It's also extremely.
Have you noticed the Pineapple party trend this summer? We sure have – it's been taking over our Pinterest and Facebook feeds like crazy! And we're loving ever minute of it! Pineapples make a wonderful theme for all kinds of parties – like bridal and baby showers, birthdays, anniversaries, and even corporate events. The tropical fruit lends itself well to be paired with bold, bright colors and fun patterns. We.
I tell you what – Minions are taking over the pre-school party circuit and there is nothing you can do about it. My advice is to jump on the bandwagon and just face the facts that you're either going to attend or going to throw (or both!) a Minions themed party in the next 12 months. The good news for those of us who are throwing the parties (yes, I'm.
If you're a corporate event planner, there's a hot new trend that you're going to want to know about. Something that's fun, delicious and healthy for all of your guests – a Trail Mix Bar! This is a great alternative to a dessert table or candy buffet, particularly if you know your guests are health conscious. Having a buffet table full of nuts, dried fruit, pretzels, yogurt-covered-items, as well as.
These Pop Rocks Lollipops are so much fun to make, and a hilariously silly treat to have at a birthday party. Plus, they're pretty simple to put together and they look really cool on display. Are you sold yet? Additionally, these are perfect for a Harry Potter themed party because they so closely resemble the Honeydukes Acid Pops from the books. Basically, they're lollipops (like these Blue Razzberry Blow-Pops) coated.
Now that we're getting close to the end of July and August is quickly approaching, it means that start of school is near and it's time to squeeze in some last minute summer fun. What better way to do that than have an Ice Cream Social with your kids and neighbors! I have really fond memories from childhood making ice cream sundaes with my friends at sleepovers and pool parties..

About No
An uplifting drama about the Chilean national plebiscite of 1988, which resulted in dictator Augusto Pinochet falling from power. Facing the first free election for two decades, those in opposition to Pinochet (the 'No' party) scramble to create an ad that will convince people to vote against him. Their campaign video is full of depressing iamgery and references to Pinochet's many crimes. Up-and-coming adman Rene Saavedra (Gael García Bernal) decides to work with the 'No' party, and suggests a somewhat audacious tactic: creating a video that is upbeat and aspirational. He juggles his political work with a job on a trashy soap opera. But his background in consumerism can't keep him and his family safe from Pinochet's supporters, who are rattled by the public's optimism. Helping add authenticity, this film was made entirely on a 1980s U-Matic camera.

International Society of Automation News Release
Contact: Jennifer Infantino
+1 firstname.lastname@example.com
Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, USA (13 March 2014) - More than 70 automation and control professionals gathered in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, USA last week at the inaugural ISA Food and Pharmaceuticals Industries Division (FPID) Symposium to learn how to address emerging serialization requirements and supply chain processes that are driving major changes in global food and pharmaceuticals distribution.
Research Triangle Park, a globally acclaimed epicenter of high-tech research and development, served as the ideal setting for the symposium given that it is home to many prominent, industry-leading pharmaceutical companies as well as to ISA headquarters. In addition to featuring 23 expert speaker and technical presentations with panel discussions, a well-represented vendor exhibit, and two ISA training courses, the event included tours of local companies so attendees could view first hand many of the recommended automation processes and techniques discussed.
During the two-day symposium, noted experts and guest speakers explained the importance of automation to reduce errors and implement enhanced serialization controls to improve tracking and tracing throughout distribution channels. Specific technologies and methodologies were discussed along with examples of their use. Many of the most effective approaches involve highly coordinated strategies that incorporate automation, supply chain management, and information analysis and security.
Two highly popular ISA training courses were conducted during the two-day event: Implementing Enterprise/Control Integration Using ANSI/ISA95 Standards (IC55C) and Introduction to Applying the Batch Control Standard ANSI/ISA88.01 (IC40C).
"Our team really enjoyed the conference," says Eric V. Mayer of Avid Solutions, a developer of automation and information solutions. "The quality of the presentations was outstanding and right on point with the theme and focus of the conference. We were impressed with the experience and expertise of the attendees, many of whom were high-level engineers and technologies with substantial experience in the automation and MES industry."
John Hamel of Parsec Automation Corp., a developer of real-time operations and performance management software, echoed these comments, saying the meeting was "well organized with great presentations. We look forward to attending future ISA FPID events."
ISA is pleased to announce that next year's ISA FPID Symposium will take place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in early March. Symposium and division leaders are already recruiting volunteers, participants and speakers for the event. For more information, contact Rodney Jones, Manager, ISA Sections and Divisions, firstname.lastname@example.com. Updates and more information will be posted on the ISA website.
Assisting ISA headquarters in conducting this year's symposium were the Tar Heel Section of ISA, which provided numerous volunteers, and the International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE), which contributed valuable technical content and served as an event sponsor and exhibitor.
In addition to the technical sessions and training opportunities, attendees were treated to:
Tours of two area companies, Biogen Idec and Lonerider Brewery
Attendees received a first-hand look the US Manufacturing and Patient Services Operations of Biogen Idec's RTP-based facility. Founded in 1978, Biogen Idec is the world's oldest independent biotechnology company. The company discovers therapies for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, hemophilia and autoimmune disorders. Patients worldwide benefit from its leading multiple sclerosis therapies.
Attendees also received a tour of the Lonerider Brewery beer-making operations in Raleigh, NC. The conference visitors witnessed all stages of the beer-brewing and bottling processes.
An award ceremony
At a conference award ceremony, Andre Michel was named 2013 ISA FPID Member of the Year for his contributions as division webmaster and editor of ISA's FPID newsletter.
Two networking luncheons and an exhibitors' reception
Two networking luncheons were held, providing attendees the opportunity to mingle and interact personally with colleagues as well as conference presenters.
In addition, an exhibitors' reception enabled leading vendors to demonstrate their newest products and services in a casual, social setting. Participating exhibitors included Avanceon, ESP, Laetus, Parsec Automation, Mangan, Rockwell Automation, Brilling Systems, Inc., Avid Solutions, Prime Technologies, the ISPE Carolina-South Atlantic Chapter and the Tar Heel Section of ISA.
The Food and Pharmaceutical Industries Division (also known as FPID) is organized within the Industry and Sciences Department of the International Society of Automation (ISA). FPID expands awareness and understanding about the latest technologies in automation, sensors, instruments, other equipment, computer systems and software application for the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) and Pharmaceutical Supply Chains (PSC).
The FPID retains a knowledge base of design, engineering, system, software, process automation, validation, quality, research, and scientific professionals. Division members: share and enhance their personal expertise in CPG product manufacturing and packaging, pharmaceutical R&D, clinical trials, and the manufacturing of tablet formulations, parenteral and biotech products; help provide global leadership at the US Food and Drug Administration and other international regulatory bodies; and furnish valuable knowledge and input on controversial issues regarding instrumentation, analysis automation, equipment and system validation, and testing for regulatory compliance.

TravelPod Member ReviewsCliffrose Lodge & Gardens Springdale
We enjoyed our stay here and loved the view and the room and the location so near the shuttle bus . However we felt that the constant watering of the gardens seemed extreme in an area short of water and would be better timed for when it was not the hottest part of the day! In addition the location of the breakfast was poor (in a dark "bunker") and the large corner patio area that we paid premium bucks for was under shade for all the morning and in the late afternoon - there was small slot between 2.00 and 4ish to sit in the sun but then the gardener decided to cut the grass right next to us then put the sprinklers back on ! To be honest the resident cat got better use of the patio furniture then we did .We kept hoping the gardener was going to trim some branches instead so that we got some sun.

Historical Traveler Reviews Cliffrose Lodge & Gardens Springdale
What a great winter retreat
Zion was fantastic this winter with incredibly mild weather and our lodging experience at the Cliffrose was just what we needed. The room was extremely clean, the beds were very comfortable, the view from our balcony was amazing, and the staff was delightful. The view of the night sky from the hot tub was pretty amazing as well.
Fantastic! ! !
My family owns an Inn so we know quality when we see it. We have visited Cliffrose all seasons of the year, and know Springdale very well. Quite simply it is the very best. Standing in the middle of the grounds you are surrounded by the mountains of Zion National Park. The only way to get closer to the park is to fall in the river which runs along the property. We have the best beach in California, Cliffrose has the best beach in Zion. The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful. We even know them by name and they always give us a warm welcome back with every visit. We have actually been meeting other repeat visitors as the savvy visitor to Zion knows how to pick the best from the rest.
Best location, helpful staff
We stayed one night and were very happy with our experience. We chose the hotel because of its location--just a few minutes' walk to Zion. We spent almost all of our time in the park so didn't use the pool or walk around the hotel grounds. But the room was large, very clean and comfortable. There are two little restaurants nearby and in the morning we ran out for coffee and breakfast and brought it back to eat on the private deck off our room--with lovely views. The front desk person was incredibly helpful and friendly, and gave us directions to a "secret" local spot for the sunrise. This is an excellent choice for Zion.
Great place
One night stay was great. Walking distance to Zion visitor center. Nice room with balcony. Gardens are small but a nice touch.
Based upon some good reviews on this board, we booked a room for a few nights.
What a disappointment.
The room was average. The surroundings were average. What's advertised as a garden is an ordinary patch of grass.
The walls are paper-thin, you can hear everyone coming and going.
As a "bonus," the front desk staff has an attitude.
Spend your money elsewhere. Go to the Desert Pearl Inn or the very nice Best Western.
Amazing views and beautiful gardens
I stayed at the Cliffrose Lodge this spring and absolutely fell in love the property and the location. It borders Zion National Park along the Virgin River and boasts some of the most beautiful flower gardens and views of the surround cliffs that I have ever been witness too. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the service was excellent. Ask for Colin at the front desk for the best reccommendations on just about anything.Michael Clark
Heaven on Earth
My family of 4 stayed at the Cliffrose Lodge in June of 2003. The atmosphere was so relaxing and peaceful. Our room had a beautiful view of the lodge's gardens and the red cliffs of ZION. We enjoyed sitting on the bench swing in the gardens enjoying the beautiful scenery. The pool and spa area were lovely. The staff were friendly and efficient.
Our stay at the Cliffrose was one of our favorites during a 2 week trip to the Southwest. We enjoyed some very good restaurants in Sringdale also. I can't wait to return.
Hummingbirds everywhere!
My family of four stayed at Cliffrose Lodge in the Summer of 2002. It was reccommended to us by friends who had stayed previously. The setting and facilities were far beyond our expectations. Every room has two doors, making access to the garden area very easy. We most enjoyed sitting in the lawn/garden area watching the many (more than 20 at a time) hummingbirds flit from feeder to feeder. The entire garden encouraged you to put your feet up and read a good book. The ambience was so pleasant that we did takeout and had a picnic right there. The pool is impeccable. The rooms are fairly basic, but you really are not in them that much.
Cliffrose is tops in tour of Utah
This was one of the most pleasant places we stayed in during a three week driving trip through the USA. The room was big and airy, the views were tremendous and the personnel efficient and frinedly. I would certainly recommend it very highly to all, and intend returning again soon.
Great balcony, lovely gardens
I was there several years ago, and remember it as a very pleasant experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable. My friend and I especially enjoyed the privacy of the ivy-covered balcony and the view of Zion's mountains from it. The garden and pool in the back made the comfort complete.
