Comedy Club 4 Kids
Since 2005, the Comedy Club 4 Kids has been getting the best stand-ups and sketch acts from the international circuit to do their thing for an audience of children and their families… but without the rude bits! It's just like a normal comedy club, but it's on in the day, kids are allowed in, and thus there is a higher than usual chance of heckles like "why is that your face!?"

Interesting example of how data services can be used to show real-time relevant information, but the real interesting point is how the software can be used by the younger generation who take technology for granted. The `we're connected to wifi, why shouldn't the app know?' argument is a good thing for developers to keep in mind. Can I connect this application to a service that will really help the end user, and display that information in a timely, useful, and relevant fashion?

Pros: Great performance for the price. Get a 7900 series, Tahiti, based GPU for a 7800 price.
Cons: Card runs hot and loud. The heatsink is barly good enough for default settings. I would not overclock this card unless the heatsink is upgraded.
Other Thoughts: Dollar for dollar its one of the best deals out there. It does use more power and produces more noise and heat but if you don't overclock it should be ok.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: ASUS GT 600 GeForce GT 640 DirectX 11 GT640-1GD3-L 1GB DDR3 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready Plug-in Card Video Card
Pros: Card is smaller so should fit in some smaller cases.
Runs cool at default settings.
Good HTPC card.
Cons: Only has DDR3 ram which holds the card back (ddr5 is better)
Heatsink is smaller so overclocking will cause it to run warm.
Price is about $30-40 to much for this level of card.
No low profile bracket.
Other Thoughts: The GT640 and GTX650 are the same GPU but one has DDR3 the other DDR5.
Spend the extra $10-20 and get the GTX650. Better heatsink and much faster ram.

Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust, which owns the Gallery at Market East, announced Wednesday that Century 21 Department Stores will anchor the long-anticipated redevelopment of the sprawling Center City retail complex.
In recent weeks, the New York-based discount-apparel retailer had been rumored to be a major player in the refurbishing of the struggling mall, but the news was made official in a curt mention during PREIT's quarterly earnings report Wednesday.
Century 21 describes itself as offering designer clothing for men, women, and children, as well as cosmetics, handbags, shoes, lingerie, housewares, luggage, and gifts. On its website, it bills itself as offering "65 percent off retail 100 percent of the time." The company opened its first store in Manhattan in 1961 and now has seven stores in the New York/North Jersey areas.

The opportunity to study medicine is subject to restrictions in all EU
Member States, with the exception of Austria. In France, although there are no
restrictions on access to medical studies, students must pass a
"concours" before they are allowed to continue in the second year. Council Directive 93/16/EEC states that basic medical
training in the EU must be at least 6 years, or 5 500 hours, in or under the
supervision of a university. The majority of Member States meet this
requirement. However, there are two countries where the minimum duration is
shorter - Great Britain (4 or 5 years) and Sweden (5.5 years), and two where
this minimum duration is longer - Finland (6.5 years) and Belgium (7 years). In
some EU Member States, doctors are awarded their license to engage in
independent medical practice immediately after completing their medical
studies. This is the case in Greece, Italy, Spain, Netherlands and Belgium. In
other Member States, doctors, upon graduation from the medical university, take
up a probationary period of practical postgraduate training which, if
successfully completed, allows them to carry out independent medical practice
as a doctor. The duration of this training period varies: it is 12 months in
Great Britain and Ireland (which allows these countries to meet the basic
requirement of the Directive) but 18 months in Germany, Portugal and Sweden. In
Luxembourg, the Ministry of Health grants an authorisation to practice medicine
on the grounds of a diploma issued in another EU Member State (postgraduate
training is not possible in Luxembourg). The conferral of the license alone
does not mean that the doctor is admitted into the system of social security.
The prerequisite for the public health care systems as well as for the social
insurance systems is additional specific training in general medical practice
or in a speciality. In France, Finland and Austria, the licence to
independently practise medicine is conferred only after the completion of
specific training in general medical practice or specialist training.
Therefore, there are no doctors in those countries who have only an
"Approbation", i.e. doctors are only entitled to exercise the medical
profession independently after completion of their training as general medical
practitioners or as specialists.
Council Directive 93/16/EEC states that general practitioners intending to exercise their profession within the social security system must furnish proof of postgraduate practical training. At the moment, a minimum duration of 2 years training is required in Finland, Italy and Belgium, while 2.5 years is required in France for training in general medical practice. General practitioners in Sweden generally undergo free specialist training for a minimum period of 5 years in Family Medicine/GP. A training period of 3 years in general medical practice is required in Greece, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Ireland and Austria. In Denmark, the duration of training in general medical practice is 3.5 years. In Germany, the requirement is 4 years of 'specialist' training in general medical practice that includes the 18-month period of "Approbation".
See Österreichische Ärztekammer - Short overview of the health care systems in the EU Member States: Medical education .
The EU has also agreed a set of acceptable minimum standards for the training of nursing professionals in order to allow free movement for nurses in the Member States. This is for NRGCs [nurses responsible for general care, or general nurses (EC)] who have completed a basic general training of at least three years (Directives 77/452/EEC, 77/453/EEC and amendments of 10.10.1989 and 30.10.1989). Midwives are professionals with training in accordance with the EC Midwives Directives (80/154/EEC, 80/155/EEC).
The EU project
Human resources of European health systems, coordinated by the BASYS
Institute under the Health Monitoring Programme, has produced a positive
outcome in terms of the broad availability of data in many of the countries
that delivered information on metadata. At the same time, however, the main
problem is the limited availability of data in some areas (actors according to
the ICHA-HP classification) and the various levels (age, gender, head counts
etc.) at which data are broken down. This, along with differences in the
quality of reporting, causes difficulties for the production of comparable
statistics on human resources at European level. The assessment of metadata on
the human resources of the health sector in the Member States shows that some
countries have started to establish labour accounting systems for the health
sector (HLA). The project calls for a new methodology to be used to develop and
implement an integrative statistical tool, termed Health Labour Accounts (HLA),
at least at the 1-digit level, which will be compatible with the SHA. The
system will be based on existing statistics. By using and combining a broad
variety of existing data on HLA, this approach will provide added value for
health policy information in all European countries.
The concept of Labour Accounting Systems has been defined in depth in the Eurostat project Implementing the Concept of Health Care - Manpower in Member States on a Prototype Basis(790 KB) , coordinated by the BASYS Institute. Member States use various data sources to compile coherent aggregates. Some statistics focus on the total, others on parts of the total. Their reliability often varies. Experiences with Health Labour Accounts (HLA) show that the HLA has to be built bottom-up and can be derived neither from the EU Labour Force Survey nor from the SNA exclusively. The problem is similar to the SHA, where all available statistics have to be linked in a consistent way, with SHA providing the main framework. As manpower is the most important production factor, consistency can also be ensured by linking production values to manpower, usually described as labour productivity. The comparison of productivity ratios among different actors as well as among countries can provide considerable support for the review of the outcome of the labour accounts.
Member States use different concepts when reporting the number of health care professionals - both for national purposes and for international comparison. The most commonly used definitions are the following:
For comparing health care services across Member States, Eurostat and DG
SANCO give preference to the concept of "immediately serving patients",
as it best describes the availability of health care resources.
The publication Health Care Eurostat Metadata in SDDS format: Summary Methodology provides all the necessary methodological descriptions for this data.
According to Eurostat, the total number of practising physicians has steadily increased in most Member States over the last 20 years. The number of licensed physicians exceeds the number of practising physicians in all countries, although the ratio observed in 2003 varies between countries. There are large variations in the number of medical specialists between countries, particularly in specialities such as oncology, infant surgery, occupational medicine and urology, where the range of density exceeds 10:1. This also holds for the 'large' groups such as internal medicine, with 12:0, and psychiatry and (to a lesser extent) general practitioners ,with a ratio of 6:1. In certain fields, there is a lack of specialists and an unbalanced distribution of specialists across countries. The number of practising dentists in the EU has increased over the last 20 years.

See Medical Specialists per 100 000 inhabitants - per speciality - 2003(22 KB)
See Practising dentists per 100 000 inhabitants(23 KB)
See Eurostat Health statistics
According to Eurostat, the data on the numbers of qualified nurses and
midwives vary in a similar way. The respective density rates fluctuate to a
somewhat lesser degree. The range between the countries with the lowest and
highest density rates is wider for qualified nurses than for practising nurses
and midwives. Recent estimates of unfilled nursing positions reveal a large
number of open nursing positions in hospitals. Medical practices report having
greater difficulty hiring nurses to supervise clinical staff and to perform
higher-level duties, waiting longer to hire nursing staff and not being able to
offer higher salaries to attract qualified candidates. Enrolment in nursing
studies has been steadily declining in recent years and the level of migration
and mobility is high in this profession. For problems related to the nursing
professions, see The
Standing Committee of Nurses of the EU (PCN).
According to Eurostat, the variations are less pronounced for midwives. In the majority of Member States, midwives are considered as a completely separate group of health professionals, including those who trained before the adoption of the Midwives Directives and Decisions mentioned above.
See Total number of qualified nurses and midwives per 100 000 inhabitants(75 KB).
ata on nursing professions, a Task Force European Data on Nurses(95 KB) cover all professionals was created by Eurostat to submit to Member States some recommendations for the collection of data. Raising the quality and comparability of data on nursing staff requires various criteria to be met: data must not mix different methodological concepts. Qualified nurses, irrespective of whether active, retired, working abroad, or active in a different profession, provides information of a different kind than Nurses economically active in their profession. This again differs from what is denoted by data on Nurses active in the health care sector or Nurses in direct patient treatment. The Task Force considers Nurses in direct patient treatment to be the best concept for the purpose here, where it includes nurses active in health programmes. The TF admits, however, that Nurses active in the health care sector may be the only available concept, and that data collections will have to settle for that. Data must cover all professionals providing nursing care in non-negligible amounts and quality.
Economists have used standard location theory to explain and predict the
practice location choices of health professionals. Assuming that health
professionals are profit maximisers and price-takers, health professionals will
be distributed in proportion to the demand for health care. Areas where health
professionals encounter more demand for their services, and thus earn more,
will attract more health professionals and vice versa. Ultimately, the number
of local health professionals will adjust so as to equalise net advantages
across areas. The overall effect of the increasing mobility of health care
services on health quality outcomes is also far from clear. However, profit
maximisation is probably not the most appropriate tool to describe the
behaviour of health professionals. A number of additional factors inform the
decision of health professionals to locate and hence play a role in the spatial
distribution of health professionals by altering the relative attractiveness of
The main factors to be considered at EU level are: the limited regulation of the health workforce in the EU, the absence of restrictions on independent practice for licensed physicians (free choice of region), the different models of access by patients to doctors (capitation, fee-for-service), the quantitative regulation of medical students, the numerus clausus in medical studies and the limitation on the number of specialists. Other factors include opportunities for continuing professional education, quality of schools and access to leisure activities in the EU regions.
The main objectives at EU level are to analyse and quantify the flows of medical and nursing professions between EU regions (and from the rest of the world), the main reasons behind these flows, the Member States and regions where a shortage in some professions and specialities exists, and the mechanisms and tools for health staff planning in the Member States.
See the DG SANCO presentation European mobility of medical and nursing workforce(326 KB)
The OECD Human Resources for Health Care (HRHC) study analyses how decisionmakers can ensure an adequate supply of physicians and nurses. The project explores international variability in the employment of physicians and nurses; the extent of shortages and surpluses; and the effectiveness of certain management policies in influencing the supply of physicians and nurses across OECD countries.

A seven-and-a-half minute spurt of brilliance wasn't enough for the New York Knicks to offset 40 minutes of what was a rough watch in their loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday night.
Knicks guard Jeremy Lin had his second-worst game as a Knick from a plus-minus perspective. When he was on the floor, despite his 13 points and seven assists, the Knicks were outscored by 11 points. This was a big difference from the 28-point, 14-assist game he had against the Mavericks two weeks ago.
Knicks vs Mavericks
Last 21 Meetings
The Knicks made a good chunk of their comeback at the start of the fourth quarter (before the Mavericks' strong finish) with Baron Davis on the floor instead of Lin.
It was also a rough game for Carmelo Anthony, who was 2-for-12 from the field. Video review showed that Anthony was 0-for-5 on jump shots and 0-for-4 on shots around the basket.
Anthony is hitting the former at just a 31 percent clip this season and the latter at 51 percent. In Anthony's tenure as a Knick last season, he hit those shots at rates of 39 percent and 58 percent, respectively.
The Mavericks had 30 free throw attempts to the Knicks' 23. The Mavericks entered the game sixth-worst in the NBA in free throw attempts per game (21) and had allowed 111 more free throw attempts than they'd taken (the differential ranked fifth-worst in the NBA)
The Mavericks shot 23 fewer free throws than the Thunder in a Monday loss, prompting Jason Kidd to criticize the officiating after the contest.
Of the last nine reigning NBA champs before the Mavericks, none finished a regular season ranked in the bottom 10 in the league in free throw attempt differential.
Bosh return key for Heat
BoshChris Bosh returned from a three-game absence to help the Miami Heat pummel the New Jersey Nets. The Heat were 18-for-22, a season-best 82 percent from inside five feet, and outscored the Nets by 20 points in the paint. In the three games without Bosh, the Heat shot 58 percent from inside five feet.
The Heat also grabbed 36 defensive rebounds, two short of their season-high against Charlotte on Dec. 28.
Feats of the Night
Best Win Pct by Player
In 20-Point Games This Season
Josh Smith scored 27 points in a win over the Indiana Pacers.
That's nothing new. The Hawks are 12-0 this season in games when Smith scores at least 20 points.
According to the Elias Sports Bureau, that is the best record this season by a player who scored 20 points in at least 10 games this season..
Also, Celtics forward Kevin Garnett had 13 rebounds on Tuesday, which gave him 13,100 for his career. With the 13th rebound he passed Shaquille O'Neal for 12th place on the all-time career rebounds list.
Plus-Minus Note of the Night
Charlotte Bobcats backup center Byron Mullens had eight points and 13 rebounds in Charlotte's 100-84 win over the Orlando Magic. In the 25 minutes that Mullens was on the court, the Bobcats outscored the Magic by 23 points.
This was the 61st career game for Mullens, but the first in which his plus-minus was in double figures on the positive side.

Irving Andrade, 25, was out near Boulder Islands on Lake Mead with friends on Sunday when he went missing.
His fiance's brother, Luis Alvarez, decided to take a swim around 2:20 p.m. with his life jacket on when he says the currents got too strong. Irving jumped in to help, but he didn't have a life vest on and disappeared into the water.
Ariane Rivera, his fiance, just wants the loving father of two to be found alive.
"I can't give up; he's my other half. I can't give up," she said. "He would never have given up on me, I know that."
Ariane says she wants to remind everyone to wear a life jacket no matter what.
Rescue crews will make daily patrols for the next week to look for any clues. They are also looking for a 53-year-old man who jumped off a boat to go swimming and was seen going under water at Lake Mohave south of Willow Beach.

For generations of music fans, Las Vegas has always been seen as the place where showbiz, the antithesis of rock, reigned supreme.

The fight is to be at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
British artist Mark Kennedy specializes in mosaics.
With his father being "massive fan" of undefeated professional boxing champion Floyd Mayweather, Jr., he created a piece of the 37-year-old Grand Rapids native.
The 5,000-tile, black-and-white mosaic is going up for auction next Saturday in Manchester, United Kingdom.
Floyd "Money" Mayweather, Jr., says he's ready to fight.
The question is when Manny Pacquaio will come around to do that with the 37-year-old boxing champion from Grand Rapids and now of Las Vegas.

Yeah, normally I categorize this sort of thing as 'cutting and running,' but the man just fought off colon cancer. That stuff is nasty and even I have limits to my dearth of sympathy towards Democratic legislators.
Anyway... NY-22 is currently D+6, but who knows what will happen after the next redistricting? ...Actually, according to Ed Koch this is a - his words, not mine - 'godsend:'
Koch, who is leading the charge for an independent redistricting process, said he's OK with nixing Hinchey's seat, because "you're not manufacturing the seat. You're just taking advantage of the fact that you don't have to eliminate another member who is resigning."
"In a way it's a godsend to the legislature not to have to fight as to who is going to be eliminated," he said. "God eliminated him."
Yikes, Ed. Yes, I know that New York has to lose two seats - and that one has to be upstate and the other downstate, lest there be open warfare in Albany - but surely you could have come up with a better description of the man's colon cancer than (effectively) 'God's will?' I'd avoid saying that, and I'm from the other party.
Anyway, if they do eviscerate the seat then speculating on it is futile. And every district bordering it is probably going to have significant changes to them, too.

In Austin, a Lawsuit Over "The Future of Bingo"
Courthouse News has the suit filed in Austin federal court: More than a dozen veterans and fraternal organizations, including VFW Texas and Dallas-based Amvets Dept. of Texas, Inc., are suing the Texas Lottery Commission and its commissioners over "the future of bingo." Which is to say: Each of the plaintiffs holds a state-issued license that allows them to conduct charitable bingo. Only, with that license, which is granted under the Texas Bingo Enabling Act, comes this stipulation: Any money made from charitable bingo can't be used to support political candidates (which they're fine with) or "influence or attempt to influence legislation" (which they're not cool with).
Because as far as these groups are concerned, it's only a matter of time before Texas -- which, says the lawsuit, "faces an unprecedented fiscal deficit estimated as high as $18 billion in the coming biennium" -- legalizes all kinds of gambling, including bingo. (Matter of fact, on July 8 the Texas House Committee on Licensing and Administrative Procedures does have on its agenda a discussion concerning "Gaming and the expansion of gambling in Texas.") And if the state ultimately decides, yup, let's git to gamblin', it'll involve going to the voters to amend the Texas Constitution. And these groups want to be able to have a say in the outcome, which laws prohibits at present:
Charities that rely on bingo revenues to support their activities are one of the groups in the greatest position to gain or lose, depending on the outcome of anticipated gambling legislation. If, for example, a measure is passed that permits casinos or similar facilities across Texas, but which leaves bingo halls alone, this would very realistically be the end of bingo in many parts of the State.9 On the other hand, bingo and the charities it supports could greatly benefit if the charities were permitted to offer additional types of games as part of a proposed gambling bill. Therefore it is no exaggeration to say that the life of Texas charitable bingo is on the line during the next legislative session.

Recognizing a long-time need for more education and training on the proper operation and maintenance of standpipe fire hose stations, the Fire Equipment Manufacturers' Association (FEMA) recently launched a new website (www.rackhosetraining.com).
Many fire protection specialists around the country believe that standpipe fire hose stations are a critical part of any building's fire protection plan. With proper training and education, building occupants can use a fire hose station to knock down a fire well before rescue personnel arrive. And often times, a rack hose can quickly extinguish a fire prior to the activation of an automatic sprinkler system.
Frequently found in hotels, hospitals, schools, and other public buildings, a standpipe fire hose station (sometimes referred to as an interior pre-connected hose) does not require heat or smoke to be activated. All the equipment requires is one individual who is well-informed about the benefits and appropriate circumstances for using a rack hose, as well as the three simple steps to properly operate it. And that one person can be the critical difference between a small fire and a tragedy.
"The tools of our trade include the time-honored direct application of water on a fire, when the fire is at its initial stage of ignition," says Larry Larson, deputy fire chief of the Hillsborough Fire Department in California. "Interior pre-connected hose provides the first line of defense in many key applications, such as large storage and commercial buildings, and especially where response from a volunteer fire department may be delayed."
OSHA requires that building owners provide education and training on fire hose stations if that equipment is to be included in a building's fire protection plan, but after some research, FEMA didn't find any training programs that meet those requirements. In response, FEMA created a free, public-service website at (www.rackhosetraining.com) for anyone hoping to learn how to use this important fire equipment.
The rack hose training website was created to provide a comprehensive package of hands-on information in an interactive, interesting, and easy-to-use format. It takes visitors through all aspects of operating a fire hose stations, including key benefits, the classes of stations, and most importantly, proper use, inspection, and maintenance.
"We could all benefit from more education on standpipe fire hose stations and how they are properly operated. Millions of people pass by rack hoses each day in their places of residence or employment and may not fully understand how they should be operated at the time of a fire," says Fred Goodnight, former President of FEMA.
The cornerstone of the website is an illustrated, playable demonstration of how a rack hose is operated. This web component provides step-by-step instructions and can be found on the "proper use" page, along with a segment about conditions that dictate when someone should choose to fight a fire.
The website was created to become an important resource in the industry to communicate the importance and effectiveness of standpipe fire hose stations. In addition to reviewing proper operation procedures, the website leads visitors through a brief quiz at the end to put their knowledge to the test. If all the questions are answered correctly, the website will provide a printable completion certificate.
In addition to the sections listed above, the website offers information about where standpipe fire hose stations are needed, a hose rack assembly diagram, and a checklist for maintaining rack hoses in proper working condition. The website also can be accessed through FEMA's website at (www.femalifesafety.org).
To order this rack hose website on CD or to inquire about additional educational materials, visit FEMA's website at (www.femalifesafety.org) or call (216) 241-7333.
This article was written by Pat Jaugstetter, president of the Fire Equipment Manufacturers' Association (FEMA). Founded in 1930, FEMA is an international, non-profit trade association representing the world's leading fire equipment manufacturers. Its member companies aim to provide and manufacture top-quality, fire protection products ranging from portable fire extinguishers and fire hose systems to fire suppression systems, interior equipment, and others – all necessary components of a complete and balanced fire protection plan.

It represents more than a half-century of history.
Aiken resident Steve Hale has attended 52 Masters Tournaments at Augusta National. He's had the opportunity to witness some of the greatest moments in golf history. But for Hale, the chance to attend the event has been a family affair.
Both of Hale's parents played golf back in the '50s. And it was during that time his father had the opportunity to acquire tickets to one of golf's four majors.
"My parents started going in 1956 or '57," said Hale. "My dad took me when I was 8 years old. I missed a couple of years, but I've been every year since 1964."
Hale had an opportunity to see history being made in 1965 when Ben Hogan shot his 30 on the back nine.
"I saw four or five holes like that," said Hale.
The equanimity, poise and concentration demonstrated by the athletes is something that has made an indelible impression on Hale.
"It's really inspirational to see what gentlemen and good people they are," said Hale. "If they're a great golfer, they have an aplomb, a presence about themselves of self-respect that carries onto other things they do. You can't play golf under that kind of pressure if you don't have that strength of personality."
However, there are several Masters that stand out in Hale's mind, one in particular whose resounding roar left a deep imprint.
"I was there for Jack Nicklaus in 1986," said Hale. "That was the loudest and the coolest thing I've ever seen. One of my favorites was Gary Player in 1978, when he came from seven strokes behind, shot 65 and won by one stroke. That was brilliant."
The journalist and author also had the privilege of being at the 1975 Masters when Jack Nicklaus beat Tom Watson and Johnny Miller, with the lead changing hands several times, he said.
"They went back and forth on the back nine for two hours, and Nicklaus prevailed," said Hale.
But Hale also saw his favorite golfer, Seve Ballesteros, miss a short putt on No. 10, losing in a playoff eventually won by Augusta-native Larry Mize.
The tournament itself has taken on extra meaning for Hale and his family, becoming an annual tradition, and it's something they've shared for decades.
"My parents used to get four tickets, and now my mom gets two, I get two, and my youngest sister, Anne, gets two," said Hale. "My family gets six tickets. We're a middle-class family, but we're Masters rich. My sisters are such fans, too. We all get together to enjoy the tournament. It's been a big part of my family all my life. My dad was an avid golfer."
Rory McIlroy is Hale's current favorite golfer, and he happened to witness the athlete's collapse several years ago.
"It was on No. 10, he had the tournament won, and he hooked it where no one has ever hit it before and lost the tournament," said Hale.
His passion has served as an impetus, enabling Hale to attend the U.S. Open and the PGA Championship twice, with only the British Open eluding the writer from completing his personal Grand Slam.
"I saw when Payne Stewart beat Phil Mickelson up at Pinehurst, and I was a volunteer at the PGA two years ago when Rory McIlroy won in Kiawah."
Not only was Hale at the 1986 Masters, but he also attended the 1991 Ryder Cup, better known as the "War at the Shore."
"I was standing right there when Bernhard Langer missed that putt," said Hale.
Ben Baugh has been covering the equine industry and equestrian sport for the Aiken Standard since 2004. Among the awards Baugh has won include the 2003 Raleigh Burroughs Award as the turf writer making the most impact on the Florida Thoroughbred Industry.

We are extremely pleased with the banner we purchased. We are using it in our church auditorium as part of our Christmas decor. It looks beautiful.

We used four banners in the church sanctuary for the Christmas holiday. We received several positive comments. We will definitely buy more banners to use throughout the year.

My Christmas lights are set to music, and I plan to use this banner to inform passers by of what radio station to tune to so they can hear the music that the lights are flashing to. This is very durable material and I believe it will serve my needs well!

I extend an invitation for you to experience Upper Pines Lodge with your family and friends and my personal assurance that you will want to repeat staying here again and again.
A David Sellers Masterpiece
With the architectural mastery of David Sellers, the Upper Pines Lodge is fully integrated into Mad River Valley's natural terrain. David Sellers is a Vermont-based architect whose practice includes urban and community planning, furniture design, industrial design, and innovations in sustainable technology ranges. Mr Sellers was named one of '40 Outstanding Architects in the U.S. Under 40 Years Old' by the NY Architectural League in 1968 and 1978. He was also listed among the 100 foremost architects in the world by Architectural Digest's AD100 in 1992.
We rented Upper Pines Lodge Labor Day weekend for a near bye wedding. 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, lots of living space, huge wrap around deck, cooks kitchen, and a brand new Webber grill. This house is as good as it looks. 5 minutes to Warren, 10 minutes to Waitsfield and 5 minutes to Sugarbush. Lots of great restaurants close by. Jack is a very thorough host and everything is exactly as he says it is. I highly recommend this beautiful lodge for any season; either for a family vacation or a group of friends. You'll want to come back. We do.
We were in Vermont for our annual tennis retreat and we discovered this gem and decided to stay here. There were 9 of us and this home provided plenty of room. The term away from it all is so accurate, we literally felt so secluded which was so nice!!
The lodge is unlike any home I've stayed in. It's tucked away at the end of quiet gravel road with a handsome, welcoming front facade. The first-floor has abundant gathering space ideal for a small group or large family vacation (we had nine adults). The kitchen is a cook's dream. The rooms are quirky each different in decor and shape, ranging from a massive master suite to small rooms at the top. The wrap-around deck has stunning views into the valley. Luxurious amenities abound and it would be hard to ask for more. The owner was responsive and provided a lot of info about the property and the area. If you like what you see in the pictures, you'll love your stay.
We and our international guests (from UK, Canada, and Switzerland) were very impressed with this property. It felt like a home away from home while attending our son's wedding celebrations in the Waitsfield-Warren area. The outdoor surroundings with nice vistas greatly add to the appeal of this property! They had everything we needed for a top notch quality entertainment, cooking breakfast, and even watching Euro 2016 games in HD. Most of all, we loved the architecture of the lodge and the location. We were also right down the road from hiking trails of Sugarbush and the picturesque Mad River Glen.
The only drawback we experienced was the access road to the property ... numerous pothols contributed to problems with suspension in our car (and repair expenses).
Overall, this is a 5-star property; however, our rating of 4 stars is influenced by a couple of mishaps that can be easily eliminated by a very meticulous and responsive owner and his property management team.
Ed & Barbara G
Two families stayed at the Lodge, with more family local. We had plenty of room for gathering. The Lodge has beautiful views - every morning grab your coffee and watch the sunrise over the mountain - great way to start your day. The Lodge owner is easy to work with, quick to respond and very helpful. The Lodge is nicely prepared and stocked for the stay. The kitchen is well stocked and equipped for anything you want to make. Details like trash bags, paper towels and soaps. The bathrooms had toilet paper, soap and lotion. Tissues all around. These are small details that made our stay more comfortable - and I've not seen before at other rentals. The Lodge is minutes from Sugarbush base. Very nice location in Warren. About 5 minutes from grocery, restaurants, skiing and hiking!
My family (two adults, two children) shared this rental with another family (two adults, two children) for a week long ski trip in January 2016. We were extremely satisfied with the accomdation. This listing description was accurate. The property was clean and well-maintained. The beds were suprisingly comfortable. The owner was easily contacted and called us while we were there (to verify that we were satisfied or had any questions). It is a perfectly sized house for 4 adults and 4 children. We would highly recommend this property and would rent it again.
Chef's dream kitchen includes: commercial grade gas range with grill & griddle and two electric convection ovens; custom cherry cabinets with birch bark insets; Bosch hidden dishwasher; separate pantry; breakfast bar hand-crafted from solid pine with matching attached movable island; soapstone counters, sinks & wall; & panoramic window. Large decks overlook wooded ravine.
Master suite with 2-level cathedral ceiling; architect-designed artisan-crafted custom king bed; hidden jacuzzi with woods views; bathroom with stunning Vermont marble slab, glass and wood steamroom/ shower & vanity, hand-blown glass sinks; private outdoor balcony set in a wall of windows; cable TV/VCR. Second floor guest bedrooms have mountain-scene wainscotting and custom wall finishes. Top-level private-loft bedroom has an artist-created etched-glass half-wall window.
Other Activities: squash, camping, hiking, canoeing, kayaking
Golf: Sugarbush offers a glorious golf course in the midst of the magnificent Green Mountains. The course offer a challenge for golfers of various capabilities in an extraordinary setting.
Ski: Sugarbush resort including Sugarbush North linked by an extraordinary 2-mile 9-minute chai, are a 5 minute drive up the Access Road - they comprise a vast array of terrain for skiers of all abilities. Sugarbush offers a fine ski school with several separate children's programs. Sugarbush is widely known as a friendly resort that avoids lift lines by allowing skiers to range widely across its varied areas. Skier and boarders are warmly welcomed. Young persons and children are integral to Sugarbush's success and are fully embraced. Just a bit further down the road is Mad River Glen.

Grow great schools. Invest for Boston's children.
Parents deserve and are demanding great schools, and in Boston we have a diverse set of high-quality schools that can grow to meet this demand. However, the majority of Boston's children are not enrolled in a school that will prepare them for success in college and careers. We believe Boston has the talent and resources to change that.
Boston Schools Fund will accelerate the growth of high-performing schools by investing in the school operators, talent pipelines, and policy initiatives needed to serve all Boston children.
Boston Schools Fund will invest in and support district, charter, and Catholic schools. Over the next five years, our targeted grants will grow the number of high-performing seats in Boston by over one-third (7,000+ seats).

Brow Lift
Refreshed and rested. A brow lift can subtly open up your eyes -- no surprised looks here.
This Seattle brow lift patient came to Dr. Thomas Lamperti wanting to address the overall deflated appearance to her face since successfully loosing over 100 pounds. She had severely drooping eyelid skin and baggy lower eyelids. Dr. Lamperti performed an endoscopic brow lift combined with skin only upper eyelid blepharoplasty to remove the excess eyelid skin. He then performed a lower eyelid blepharoplasty to reduce the excess, protruding fat pads. This was combined with fat grafting to the lower eyelid and cheek area to re-inflate the soft tissues and a more youthful rounded cheek and better frames her eyes. In addition to the blepharoplasty and fat grafting, Dr. Lamperti also performed a facelift and necklift.
Direct Brow Lift Used To Remove Excess Drooping Skin From Upper Eyelids
This Seattle brow lift patient was referred to Dr. Lamperti by her optometrist to see what could be done to improve the gradually worsening vision blockage she had been troubled by for a few years. Dr. Lamperti noted that her main issue was actually very droopy, or ptotic, eyebrows that was leading to a significant amount of excess eyelid skin falling down over her field of vision and bmaking it hard to see. With manual elevation of the patient's eyebrows to a normal position the patient's eyelid skin was found to be much improved. Dr. Lamperti discussed the treatment options which included a direct browlift, endoscopic browlift or coronal brow lift. The patient opted to have a direct brow lift under local anesthesia in which Dr. Lamperti remove an ellipse of skin just above each eye brow. The scar was placed in an existing skin crease in each area to help hide the scars. In the 3 month after photos you can see how the patient's eyebrows are now nicely, but naturally, elevated without a deer in the headlights appearance. Dr. Lamperti also was careful to create a pleasing arch to the patient's eyebrows as well. The oblique views best illustrate the improvement realized by merely lifting the eyebrows and lifting the perceived excess eyelid skin upward and improving the upper eyelid show without actually needing a blepharoplasty.
Direct Forehead Lift and Upper Lid Blepharoplasty
This Seattle brow lift patient was having chronic problems seeing due to the severe excess skin she had blocking her vision. The patient had so much extra eyelid skin that blepharoplasty alone would bot have been able to adequately treat her problem. As a result Dr. Lamperti suggested a combined direct brow lift in which skin was removed from above both eyebrows with a functional upper eyelid blepharoplasty in which the residual excess eyelid skin was removed. In the 4 month after photos you can note how the patient has much improvement to her eyelids and no more visual field blockage. With time Dr. Lamperti would expect the eyebrow to actually drops down a bit further as the forehead scar relaxes over the first year after surgery.
Facial Feminization Mid-Forehead Brow Lift Before And After
This Seattle brow lift patient came to Dr. Lamperti looking to acheive a more feminine facial appearing to go along with her process of male to female transitioning. She had several procedures to go along with this goal including a direct mid-forehead lift in which skin was removed from the forehead region and the brow directly elevated to lift the eyebrows. A few months after surgery a planned second staged scar dermabrasion was also done to further improve scar appearance. In the approximately 2 year after photos you can see how the patient's eyebrows are nicely elevated, especially at the outer aspects where they were quite droopy. you can also see how the patient's scars have healed quite well within her forehead creases.
