Historical Traveler Reviews The Schoolhouse at Dornie
Nice hotel, but wouldn't stay again
Reading the other reviews, I assume there are some rooms that have been updated and others that haven't. The hotel lobby is elegant and the staff was very friendly. The room seemed small and a little musty, the mattress old and flat, overall the room was not the class you expect from Mandarin Oriental. They should all stay at a Four Seasons for a few days and take lots of notes. The bathrooms, however, were very nicely done.
It was on a nice street and there were no glaring deficiencies....but the hotel didn't leave me with that feeling that I couldn't wait to stay there again. Maybe, when Mandarin Oriental company starts to associate its name more prominently with the hotel's name, it will start to improve.
Bravo Jacques Garcia!
Unbelievable! We have stayed here once before, but after the Mandarin Oriental infused this property with capital for renovation, a la Jacques Garcia, this property has become the best hotel in Paris hands down. Wow! Staying anywhere else in Paris is futile at this point, especially if you are looking for true 5-Star Parisian elegance.
Booked on the internet and got a great rate (over 1/3 off & included spa pass). Arrived and we were upgraded, it seems that they do this when there is the availability, very nice! This hotel is total luxury and the service is worthy of the best praise. Recently renovated and just perfect. The pool is awsome and the steam room is great. The location is ideal and could reach the main sites with ease. Breakfast buffet was really, really good and it cost about 85 Euros for 2 which is what you would expect to pay at a 5 star venue. Even without the discounted room tarriff, because of the great experience, we would stay again and recommend to anyone.
Pampered Luxury Steps from the Arc de Triomphe
We bought a package on a luxury auction site to spend several nights at the Royal Monceau on our honeymoon and were not at all disappointed. Although one of the restaurants was closed due to construction, our visit was not spoiled in the least. The location is just steps away from the Arc and the Champs Elysees, yet far enough away to be on a nice quiet street. Room service was amongst the best food we'd had in any restaurant, much less room service. The service was attentive and quick, and we had no problems communicating - the staff was patient with our poor french and spoke English quite well. We will return!
A step above the George V
Was a luxurious experience, that I will try and experience again and again. The staff is hospitable and the rooms elegantly appointed. Maybe a pit stop on my honneymoon. Thank you Royal Monceau. I wish all hotel experiences end up like that.
Very Nice
I booked this hotel through A/E VIP program. Upon my arivial I was upgraded to deluxe room. Very large with a garden view. The bathroom was great Jaccuzi tub and shower. One thing that was strange was the toilet was not in the bathroom but in a small room by the living room/ bedroom.
They were doing contruction but it was no problem They are close to the Arch but off on a quite street.
I saw the regular rooms, they are standard europe rooms small but nice. Food is good but pricey, there are lots of resturant very close for less. I plan on going back to Paris next year and most likely will stay there again
A very nice hotel
When we arrived at the hotel we were greeted with a warm welcome. Check in was efficent, and the Front Desk Agent gave us a complimentary upgrade to a deluxe room (we reserved a superior) . When we arrived in our room we were very dissapointed, the room was very small and plain. The bed was slightly stiff and the decor was very plain. The bathroom was a different story. It was very luxurious and exceeded my expectations. The dining room was very elegant and the service was top notch. The bar was quite inviting and Daniel the bartender took very good care of us. Ask for him when you visit the hotel. The spa was very nice, but the pool was a little on the small side. When I made the reservations and checked in I thought that I had booked us on a package. I called and spoke to the head front desk agent and I realized that I had misunderstood him and he offered to send us bottle of champagne for the confusion. I thought it was a nice touch but it never came. The concierge was always very helpful.
Wonderful, Will Stay again!!
What a great experience. The hotel is lovely, the location is ideal (right off the Champs Elysee) The room was spotless and a good size (especially for Paris). And most especially the service was exceptional. The entire staff is top notch and the Concierge (we delt mostly with Herve) was terrific. He made suggestions of excellent restraunts - made all the reservations - helped with directions and just had an overall pleasant personality. Also English is no problem at this
hotel. Looking forward to our next stay at The Hotel Royal Monceau
Would not Stay Again
On our visit to Paris we decided to try the Royal Monceau. We found the room very clean, and a nice size by Paris standards. We found the service very snobby. We arrived on a red-eye at 8am so by 7pm that night we were ready for a quick dinner and bed. When we came downstairs we found their restaurant didn't open until 8pm. When we asked the concierge where he recommended we go since we really couldn't wait until 8pm to start dinner he refused to recommend ANY place to eat saying that there were no restaurants around that he could really say were good. The next morning at breakfast we ordered a la carte, joking with the waiter that we really were not that big of eaters to do the buffet. He asked if we wanted OJ and toast with breakfast, which we both said yes. When the bill came there were 2 charges for $27 each for the buffet on top of our a la cart charges. When I asked why we were charged for the buffet he replied "the orange juice and toast are considered buffet items". Even after we said we didn't want the buffet! Not nice!
Enjoyed our stay
We were impressed with the service and attitude of the hotel staff. Our room was very spacious and well appointed. A great bathroom with spa tub and shower. The heath club was above par. Breakfast was included at their restaurant overlooking a beautiful garden. There are two metro stops within five minutes of the hotel. We never used a cab our whole stay!

Kaye and Arno's Bike/Barge tour
... killed us. Most rides were around 40kms long. all in all the bike/barge trip was a great success and considered by everyone a good way to see the country.
For those that want to look at our path of travel we went Paris, Creil, Compiegne, Soissons, Berry au Bac, Reim, Sept-Sauix, Epernay, Chatea-Thierry, Esbley, Meaux and back to Paris.
We are now back in Paris for a couple of days and then off to Germany.
Stay well.

Sam & I grabbed the last bottle of champagne, some bread and cheese, and headed out to Versailles Chateau for a picnic. The Chateau is massive and there were masses of people there to see it! There were huge lines to go inside so we didnt bother with that. We found a lake that was away from the crowds and enjoyed our picnic ...
This is just not funny anymore!!
... rather cool. We'll see about that. We did a long walk today from the hotel, down to the Seine, through the Louvre (courtyard, not the museum itself), through the Jardin des Tuileries, and back to the hotel. Also had my first chocolate banana crepe which I loved on my last trip. See the first line of paragraph 3 above!

NEWPORT, Ark. - Good math teachers always try to make the material accessible to their students. Well, maybe they shouldn't always.
The Arkansas Department of Correction has reprimanded one of its math instructors after he substituted units of cocaine and methamphetamine while testing inmates on their multiplication skills.
Instead of using apples and oranges to calculate ratios, the instructor at the Grimes Unit prison used rocks of cocaine and meth ingredients. Among the questions:
"Rico sells 422 rocks per week in four different territories. He wants to expand to seven different territories. If he continues to sell at the same rate, how many rocks per week will he sell in seven territories?"
The answer? Why, 738.5 rocks, of course.
The teacher, for another question, also gave the formula for making meth as part of a word problem.
Correction Department spokeswoman Dina Tyler said that while it is proper to help inmates work toward high school diplomas, the method selected wasn't.
She also said the teacher would have received an A for his meth production calculation. The teacher said he learned the equation from his students, Tyler said.
"Which makes sense," Tyler said. "They're the ones who would know."

Given all of the closures, what is EZPW's sustainable forward free cash flow, and EBITDA? I'm interested in the true free cash flow, not operating cash flows.
What the heck happened with the preferred today? Someone kicked out a large position and it was just about liquidity?
Obviously you have no time in the markets. This selloff is nothing, and it is healthy for the continued bull market.
Stock prices are being driven by low interest rates and the lack of good investment alternatives. The bankruptcy of a two-bit country like Greece is not likely to affect US markets for more than three months, if that.
This is an important topic. Does anyone have data or insights?
What is the range of possible 2P reserves we could get out ot the Israeli exploration? Has company hinted at extraction costs / netbacks, and do those include the cost to discover the oil?
What is your calculation that leads to a $30 share price?
I didn't say buy a Greek stock today. I asked do you know of any that get most of their earnings from USD or Euros, that would be undervalued if they crashed after a Greek exit. *after* is the key word.
Does anyone know what the borrow cost is to short GREK? Most of these ETFs impose huge financing costs to any broker that wants to go short, so I will be surprised if this is cheap.
John, what are some Greek stocks that you think will do well in an environment with a highly deflated Drachma? I've been looking for Greek stocks that get most of their income in USD or Euros, that will not be deflated in earnings severely by a Greek exit. Very slim pickings here I think, but I'm sure there must be a handful to watch?
Is there any reason that Venaxis doesn't pursue a marketing partner for the US market, to help absorb costs for any new retest requirements from the FDA? Is Venaxis saying they want to market the drug themselves, or did they just want to wait until after FDA approval to get the marketing partner because it would improve the size of up front payments and lead to better overall deal?
Does anyone know of a good writeup showing market potential for next 18 months in Europe? Unlikely Spain alone is going to fund a $20M/year operating loss any time soon.
I found a study that claims false negative rate for ultrasound alone of 12%. Can someone summarize a broader set of data? I tried to post the link, but Yahoo not only doesn't let me do that, but simply makes 20 minutes of my time typing in a longer message disappear. (Amazing that nearly 20 years after starting this web site, Yahoo still can't get anything here to work well.)
Venaxis claims a 99.3% success rate for ultrasound and APPY together, which implies a 0.7% false negative rate. The company's presentation on the 24th was simply awful. The CEO failed to sell the value of the new suggested use. Potential value propositions:
1) Ultrasound and APPY together are vastly more accurate than ultrasound alone.
2) APPY may speed up the diagnostic pathway, as a quicker positive result will allow the facility to fast-track the patient.
What is the current diagnostic pathway for a person that ultrasound gives a false negative to? That person is sent home?
MEET is trying to tell us that they are enjoying healthy grow of users and revenue in their mobile applications. Why then is Meetme as a search trend on Google flat?
The fact that there is no growth confirmed outside of the company's disclosures suggest that maybe the reported growth is just a gimmick, not a sustainable trend.
But it is important to understand WHY it is going nowhere.
The fundamental results are interesting, and there might be an argument for undervaluation for a growing social media stock.
The problem is the management is raping the shareholders by grabbing huge parts of the company every year, on top of enormous salaries. All they do is create an oversupply of people who want to sell the stock, and ultimately the sellers overwhelm the modest success in fundamentals they are reporting.
Unless I completely misunderstand the stock-based compensation issue (and maybe I do), that level of compensation - combined with an explicit attempt to hide that compensation by taking it out of their perverse definition of EBITDA - constitutes an completely unethical move. That level of theft from shareholders should not even be allowed in a public market.
Am I reading the 2014 annual report correctly that MEET has almost $4M in annual stock based compensation expenses? The footnote to their EBITDA calculation in a recent press release seems to suggest they are excluding that number from their non-GAAP "Adjusted EBITDA" calculation?
$4M of stock based compensation per year for a company with such a small market cap is obscene.
And the company wonders why their stock makes no progress and always sells off? They are setting up the conditions for their constant underperformance.
I see two entities that are major shareholders in MEET that have names suggesting a Mexican owner:
Are these related parties? What's the history that had these entities owning so much of MEET?
Both of these entities have been major sellers of the stock and probably account for much of the downward price momentum.
Has anyone noticed that Cellcom's stock mirrors exactly the stocks of competitors like Partner Communications? It's almost uncanny, but if you overlay the two stocks it is like a computer is sitting there balancing trades to keep them in an exact proportion to each other. Anyone have an explanation of the reason for this?
It cannot be the case that both businesses have exactly parallel financial metrics?
It's particularly surprising given that Cellcom wants to raise money at this point in the cycle. You would think that would cause an additional sell off in the stock beyond what is happening in Partner?
Does anyone know if there is a symbol that will track Hong Kong Hang Seng Index during Hong Kong trading hours on Interactive Brokers?
It looks like the Ruble has really collapsed, probably reflecting the collapse in oil pricing. Is the currency what keeps Gazprom priced so low? Gazprom is being paid by European customers for what percentage of its revenue? What is the currency for those transactions? How much of Gazprom's cash is being kept in currencies other than Rubles?
If Russia uses up all of its foreign currency reserves in the next three years, then defaults (again), where does this leave Gazprom?
The market is obviously trying to price in some specific risks here, and I want to understand those.
Does anyone have a good symbol to track Ruble against any major currency?
Can you point me to the product?

I didn't figure out how to arm my ships. I upgraded them in shipyard to max but when i try to battle i get the message that i don't have an escort ship (warship). I can't figure out how can i upgrade my ships to warships.
Thank you, and excuse my english.
mindburner 6 years ago#2
When you select a fleet it pops up in the middle right corner. You have 4 buttons that u can press, starting from left to right they are: ship list>cargo list>captain details>trade route. Click the ship list button and a submenu will appear under it showing you the ships part of the fleet/convoy. Click the ship that you equipped for war and just above the 4 buttons i mentioned earlier u will have a small button that looks like a cannon, click that and it becomes a warship ready for war. Hope it helped.
mindwerks_99 6 years ago#3
1) Select your convoy. It's the button on the left in the window of that displays your convoy information.
2) Click each of your warships then check the box that designates it an escort ship. You can only have 3 escorts max.
After you selected your escorts a blue bar should appear which will represent the number of sailors you have to man the cannons. When you feel good about the strength of your convoy just click to on a pirate to attack him and show no mercy.
FYI- Typically you will be fighting 3 ships of varying strength, I recommend quickly sinking two of the smaller ships (if there are any) then using grapeshot to kill off the crew of the remaining ship, once the crew is dead you can use regular shot to get their health low. The computer will automatically capture the ship when they are near death.
It's a good way to build up your fleet early in the game, repair costs will ensure you break even monetary wise. but you don't have to wait months to build ships and the captured ship will have at least one upgrade.
How is the ship combat now , is it still bad like in P III or they did improve it ?

I am new here and looking for a "Clomid Buddy" to share in this journey.
A little about me-
I am 38 and remarried the love of my life this past October.
I have children from my previous marriage and my DH has no children ( even though he considers my children as his own).
After 1 unsuccessful IVF cycle in December, my DH and I decided that I would undergo a tubal ligation reversal, which I did in February.
I recently had a cold knife cone biopsy for atypical glandular cells of the cervix which has changed our TTC plan a bit. My doctor would like me to get pregnant ASAP as I am going to need a hysterectomy. In an effort to get pregnant quickly and as I have PCOS, I am going to be starting Clomid 50mg this Wed 7/16 which is cycle day 5 for me. I am also going to have a HSG on believe on day 11.
Hoping there is someone out there who would like to share this journey together!

An effort to promote the Upper Cumberland and Cumberland Plateau region includes seeking a federal designation for the old Walton Road as the Walton Road Scenic Byway.
A meeting was recently held to get public input on how to promote the old wagon road, which started in Roane County around Fort Southwest Point and crossed the Cumberland Plateau to the Caney Fork and Cumberland rivers near Carthage in Smith County.
The trail traversed areas which now are parts of Hwy. 70 and Interstate 40 going through Kingston, Harriman and Rockwood.
Roane Countians who enjoy seeking ghostly encounters won't have to go far for a chance to explore a haunted venue.
Tours of the Temperance Building, which has been the location of several paranormal evidence searches, are coming this month.
"The tours will be from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. on the third Saturday of every month, starting in April," said Richard Ruland, the founder of G.H.O.S.T. Paranormal.
The Republican Primary is still months away, but incumbent 3rd District Congressman Chuck Fleischmann said his mind is focused on legislative issues in Washington, D.C.
"If I were to sit here and worry about primaries, I couldn't focus on my job," he said during a recent interview. "I think the best way to get re-elected is to go up there, do your job everyday, do the folks a good job and they'll reward that at the polls."
A domestic violence case has turned into a homicide investigation for the Kingston Police Department. The change occurred because James Cobb died Saturday night, according to Chief Jim Washam.
Cobb, 63, was taken to the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville on April 4 after being shot at his home at 814 Rosedale Ave. Washam said Cobb was shot in the chest.
The suspected shooter – Tammy Ellen Rosado – was arrested on April 6 and charged with aggravated domestic assault. She could be facing a homicide charge with Cobb's death.
"Are you ready for noise?"
That's the question Midtown Elementary School music teacher and choir conductor Beth Trescher posed before a recent rehearsal.
Children — more than 20 of them — poured in the door just before 4 p.m., excitedly chattering and ready to sing.
"They're a lively group," Trescher said. "And it really has become like a little family. They're very supportive and help each other."
The Roane County Tea Party hosted a candidates forum for road superintendent at the Kingston Community Center last Thursday.
All three candidates — Jim Beason, Dennis Ferguson and Brian Mullins — attended.
The road superintendent job pays $76,407. The hopefuls spoke about their qualifications, backgrounds and issues facing the road department.
"I've been employed with the department for 36 years," Beason said. "I'm the foreman down there now."
Kingston City Council members considered a new source of revenue at an April 3 work session.
That source: Roane County Government.
Council members moved to place a request in the form of a letter on the April 10 council session seeking to open "a channel of communication" with Roane County Executive Ron Woody about the possibility of collecting in-lieu-of-tax payments on commercial property the county has previously obtained within city limits.
Rockwood isn't the only Roane County community that sees economic benefits of a successful airport.
The Metropolitan Knoxville Airport Authority announced plans recently to move forward on an airport in the Heritage Center Industrial Park in Oak Ridge.
"The Airport Authority is charged with monitoring the aviation needs of the region and we believe that it is clearly time to take the steps necessary to place a general aviation airport in Oak Ridge," said Howard Vogel, chairman of the MKAA Board of Commissioners.

I have been wearing a condom catheter/leg bag since Feb. 2014. On a number of occasions the condom came loose and leaked at the base of the penis. This product prevents that from happening. It is lightweight and easy to wrap around the neck of the penis just above the bottom end of the condom. I can now safely stay in bed all night using a 2000ml overnight drainage bag and a condom catheter that no longer pulls loose because the the Rochester male external catheter strap holds everything in place. I have been using my original strap for over 2 weeks and it is still effective ... easy to put on, easy to take off. This product is a winner.

Domestic violence has gotten a spate of national attention with the release of video showing former NFL player Ray Rice beating the woman who is now his wife. The issue had been before Congress in 2013 when the federal Violence Against Women Act came up for renewal. Before the House passed a 5-year extension of the law, it rejected a GOP alternative. Cotton voted against both versions.
His campaign website explains that he believes the federal program spends too much money to "fund liberal organizations to carry out an ideological agenda without effective results in reducing violence against women." A Cotton spokesman said the ad was a part of Democrats' effort to claim Cotton was waging a "war on women," and to distract from "Obama-Pryor economic policies."
Hutchinson: Agree
Jean Carnahan declined to be interviewed for this article, but in a campaign commercial she said she shared her husband's commitment to families, children and the elderly.

Good 3.9 /5 from 236 reviews
went to the area to visit family. nice room for the price. convenient to family and friends.
Had problems with refrigerators. Had to be moved into another room. Took a time or two but finally the keys would work room doors. The breakfast was lacking as far as selections offered. Desk clerks were personable, friendly and nice. The room was clean however it appeared from inside to outside that repairs are greatly needed.
Pros: The beds and pillows were comfortable to where I got a good nice rest. The room was always at a good temperature. I loved that the hotel provided many channels, so I didn't have to pay extra. The shower was was hot and the towels were pretty clean. For breakfast I liked how they had an individual utensil for each food choice. The plates, forks, spoons and everything were clean. The staff were very friendly and always open to answer our questions. Cons: When me and my friends first got to the hotel the beds were not made. It looked like they pulled the covers over and threw the pillows on top of the bed. The tub had didn't seem scrub from the bottom. The refrigerator didn't get all that cold. I like the free breakfast, but I was expecting more options. Overall experience: I liked the room for I was comfortable, but it could have been a little bit cleaner and the beds could have been a bit more comfortable.
The front desk clerk was very friendly when we arrived; however she was the only employee we encountered that was helpful. Our room had several "issues" (electrical outlets that were loose or bad connections, a refrigerator that did not close properly, very very poor water pressure in the shower, a vent in the bathroom that did not work and was beyond disgustingly dirty, a tv that shook on the dresser every time you walked, and very stained carpet). During our breakfast at the hotel, we encountered a very rude employee who not only barged in between guests but also slammed dishes, etc. We were also "treated" to a display of her body due to her uniform not fitting correctly. Based on the experience we had at this hotel, we are very reluctant to stay at this brand again.
Hotel was nice and the staff was friendly. Love the option of free breakfast in the mornings.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Beer Releases' started by starrdogg, Dec 13, 2012.
I have been out of it. Thank you!
I don't think you did. They seem to be going for about $40.
Ticker sense is tingling.
Until you get him a few new ticks then anything goes .
Thanks. Maybe I'll ask for it as a Christmas gift
got one
The SNR 2010 is 38 € @ kulminator !
What Kris from de dolle told me is that there are 360 bottles SNR 2010 has been sended to the US and no more then that will leave the brewery
That's like $50, wow.
So it's not at any bottleshops?
Not in Belgium , no !
The only bottles that have left the brewery are the 360 bottles to the US !
Thats all .
Wow, only 360 bottles! This came and went in Portland, ME a few weeks ago.
Thanks for the update Wim.
I was thinking about trying to trade for one, or get one on my next trip. But since it's a 750 and probably no one has more than one bottle, I might just skip it. 750's are nice but I'd rather get a bunch or 33cl'ers and try then over time.
I think I'll put my sights on Cantillon 50x4.
Just for the record. I paid 12 Euros at the brewery for one bottle.
some dude on Reddit from the Boston area has 11, which is probably like, half the state's allocation. people are awesome.
Did Dirk all of a sudden start price gouging people? Sheesh. He better hook it up with some free smoked Gouda with the bottle at that price
We need to find out who that Mofo is and get them! haha....
Sounds like a tourist price. Dirk has never been especially fond of tourists.
Yeah , some smoked chees with ham , or maybe some take away sushi
This is being sold on Etre Gourmet right now for 25 euros a pop, limit one bottle.
Place near me had it for $51. Crazy.
Am I the only one who thinks this may be inaccurate? I've seen a number of these in person and it seems everyone else on the forum has too....
$34 when I saw it here in NC
$45+ tax in Charlotte
I don't know but I have my suspicions. Etre Goirmet had this for a short time so that tells me that some were distributed within Belgium too. That throws the 360 number in doubt as well.
Heard there may be a second wave being distributed. Whether that means a supply was held back or more is coming, I do not know.
Started the night off with this one Sunday
along with a few more.
Keep pumping it up, I'm sure the trade value is going through the roof. All aboard TOOT TOOT.
I will gladly pay $50 a bottle if anyone can point me in the right direction in the Delaware Valley.
Given the stupidly thin distribution I don't really think this one needs pumping. It's pretty much confirmed (unless Kris @ De Dolle is lying, which I highly doubt) that there were 360 bottles sent to the U.S. , and it was pretty much one case (6 bottles) per store with few if any exceptions. I know I put more work/effort into getting this one than pretty much any other beer in the past, and in my case at least it won't be re-traded (BIF'd maybe...).
The guy from Etre buy 24 bottles at the brewery and sold them directly for double!!!
I was there last week and there were only 50 boxes left and then it's finished!!!
I opened a 2006 Oerbier Reserva last night, and I can say without a doubt that it wowed me.
Wow, after reading some of the posts on here, feeling pretty damn lucky I was able to score two bottles for 35 each...Looking forward to this one.
If any of you are in Belgium, look up the bar "Sint Pietershof" in Moen (outside of Kotrijk). Ask the owner about the beer in their barn's cellar. Last I went, they had tons of vintage De Dolle beers (as well as other stuff). This thread reminded me of that, so tonight I opened a bottle of the Stille Nacht brewed in either 89, 90 or 91 (can't tell, but pic of the bottle below). The beer was amazing 20+ years later.
I have also heard this.
I sure HOPE so !!!
Case cost for stores was $175 in Indiana. I assume that was standard?
Scored a bottle last week for $37. Haven't had a chance to crack it yet though.
For a 6-bottle case that sounds about right. That's a shade under $30 for a bottle and is consistent with the $42 price tag in Chicago.
Everytime I see a story about someone picking up a bottle really close to $30 it makes me wonder....
So, sorry to bump an old thread... How's it drinking? Missed the release totally despite a ton of legwork trying to find a bottle, but found a bottle at a bar for $50, which seems really reasonable given what some folks paid for it retail. Worthwhile?

"He is a guy that is interesting," said Fichman. "He threw well in Chicago and came down to Arizona and threw well the first day. He threw the next day and tried to overthrow. He didn't throw well the second day. Instead of throwing 92 he was trying to throw 192."
The Padres saw enough talent in Chris Perez to sign him to a minor league contract.
Perez, a former New York Institute of Technology (NYIT) starter, only truly started pitching in college and has elevated his game by working out with other minor leaguers in New York.
Ironically, the Kalamazoo Kings released Perez early in the year after pitching in nine games for the Frontier League team, going 2-2 with a 5.92 ERA. In 38 innings he allowed 34 hits, walked 23 and struck out 38. He also hit seven batters while holding the opposition to a .239 batting average against. They had asked him to be a different pitcher than he was.
"His fastball, when he threw for us, he topped out at 93 which we had as a 55 and is an above average major league fastball – projected to a 60," Fichman explained. His curveball – 40 – below average. Change of pace 45 with a projection to a 50 or 55. He has an idea how to throw it and just needs to work on it. A good arm, and an excellent pitchers body. He threw 91, 92 easily, with an easy motion and no max effort."
"He probably threw harder than anyone and might be the crudest," Bill Bryk, the Padres' minor league field coordinator, explained. "He was up to 93 with a hard breaking ball. He has some potential with good size. He needs some refining but has a good arm.
"It is mechanics. From where he has come from – the east – you don't get as much coaching. I like his potential. A tweak here or a tweak there and good coaching, guys improve if they have good makeup or a good attitude."
Perez earned Division I Independent Baseball Pitcher of the Year Honors in 2006, tying the NYIT record for wins a season with 10 victories. He finished the season with a 10-2 mark and a 3.21 ERA. In 81.1 innings he allowed 64 hits, walked 39 and struck out 90. The opposition hit .217 off him and he did not surrender a homer.
"He went to NYIT, which is the same place that Chris Rojas came from and he played for us," said Fichman. "He just blew everyone away. He was a fifth year senior that never got drafted and didn't have to be drafted."
Early projections have Perez, a Cuban-American, competing for a bullpen spot when he arrives to spring training in 2007.

Board of Education
Each of Colorado's 178 school districts is governed by a Board of Education comprised of people elected by the residents of the district. It is the Board's responsibility to establish and maintain a system of education in the district, as prescribed by the constitution and laws of the state. School board members are community volunteers who give freely of their time to govern public schools. Durango School District 9-R is governed by a seven member board.
The Durango 9-R School Board chose to use Policy Governance as its governance model approximately 10 years ago. This model helps to clarify the roles of both the school board (policy making and oversight) and the superintendent (academic and management leader).
Under Coherent Governance, the Board is responsible for clearly defining what students should know and be able to do by the time they graduate from high school (click here for the Board's Results Policies). The Board consciously stays out of the district's day-to-day management decisions and adopts policies that give the superintendent the authority to select the resources, teachers, and educational programs that he or she believes best serve student-learning needs. (Click here for the Board's Operational Expectation Policies). The Board takes a strong oversight role by holding the superintendent accountable for ensuring that students are making reasonable progress toward meeting the district's educational goals.

A Joint Dynamic Model of Fertility and Work of Married Women
This article estimates a dynamic model of fertility and labor supply of married women drawn from the National Longitudinal Survey of Young Women, 196891. It distinguishes part-time and full-time employment sectors, which differ by pecuniary and nonpecuniary returns and transferability of human capital. The model with unobserved heterogeneity in earning ability and preferences for children fits the data and produces reasonable forecasts of labor force participation in decisions. The estimates unpack important features of the persistence in labor market decisions, intertemporal substitution of leisure over the life cycle, and the effect of work interruptions, due to childbirth, on lifetime utility.

As she works with Haitian human rights organizations to develop story ideas, she also invites LA Progressive readers to contribute their thoughts on where else she might look.

The block of Market Street where two buildings collapsed today is not just one of the most blighted stretches remaining in Center City; it is a block where blight was ignored for decades by successive city administrations.
The collection of small, decrepit commerical buildings, which includes Hoagie City and the Salvation Army Thrift Store, was once part a larger empire of blight assembled by Philadelphia's most notorious slumlord, Sam Rappaport. Even as the rest of Center City took on a polished gloss, the deteriorated Market Street buildings were among the first things people saw as they entered the city from 30th Street Station.

Since August 2 of last season, Barry Zito is 10-0. The Giants have won all 15 of his starts during that span, and amazingly, that might not even be the most unbelievable Zito streak that's still going. It's not the streak he has going with the other starters, either, although the Giants' first four are just the second group in history to open a season with four straight games without an earned run.
On a Day of Celebration, Zito Keeps Streaking; Romo Gets off to Hot Start

New encoders from Grass Valley
Written by Goran Nastic
Among the usual batch of cameras and production gear, Grass Valley is introducing new encoding products and improving old ones.
The ViBE EM3100 MPEG-4 4:2:2 encoder and ViBE iRD3100 MPEG-4 4:2:2 decoder are designed for fixed and mobile applications and ideally suited for live broadcasts, such as sports thanks to low latency - in the range 350 to 850 ms - with a very low boot time of less than 15 seconds. Both are housed in a 1 RU chassis for installation in constrained areas such as satellite or outside broadcast vans.
The ViBE EM3000 HD encoder now also supports Dolby E to Dolby Pulse transcoding, which offers HE-AAC surround sound encoding.
The company has added next-generation MPEG-2 processing to its ViBE SD (EM1000/2000) and HD (EM3000) MPEG-4 encoders to allow users to select between MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 encoding. The new models use in-house Mustang encoding technology to implement a new 14-loop, triple-pass encoding algorithm for MPEG-2.

No. 1 Columbia softball stumbles in regional final
Published: Saturday, May 3, 2014 at 11:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, May 4, 2014 at 12:10 a.m.
LAKE CITY — This time, there would be no last at-bat home runs to win it or seventh-inning rallies when all seemed hopeless.
Columbia's incredible run in softball spanning over two seasons ended Saturday night at home in the Region 1-6A final.
Jacksonville Creekside sophomore Hannah Dekle, who transferred after playing junior varsity softball at Lafayette, hit a two-run homer to highlight a three-run sixth, and senior Sami Hays posted her fourth straight shutout in the Knights' 3-0 win over Class 6A No. 1 Columbia.
Hays allowed just three hits, all singles, and got out of jams in the second and fifth innings as Creekside, which lost in the 5A state finals a year ago to Lake Wales, will play in the 6A semifinals on Wednesday in Vero Beach.
"When you get to this level, the regional finals, these are the two best teams in the region," said Columbia coach Jimmy Williams, whose team, ranked No. 1 for all-classes by Miracle Sports, ended its season 28-2. "They got some clutch hits and we didn't. I think they will go and win it. Late in games we have had a lot of last-inning heroics. We had a couple of opportunities. We hit the ball hard right to them. They are a quality team.
"It's a tough loss, the toughest loss we have had in about three years. I wish them well. I think they have some good ballplayers and came in and did what they had to do. We can't win ball games with zeros."
Scoreless through five innings, Creekside (21-5), which came up empty in the fifth after two hits, didn't in the sixth. With two outs, the Knights reeled off five straight hits, leading with Ashley Chambers' double, who scored after Jennifer Miller followed with a single to right.
Then Dekle, the team's leading home run hitter, crushed an Erin Anderson pitch over the left-center fence, and the Knights had a commanding 3-0 lead. Anderson (20-2) was pulled after the homer and replaced with Ashley Shoup.
The Tigers had no answer in the sixth and seventh innings against Hays, who gave up two walks but no hits.
"It feels amazing. I am extremely proud of every one of these girls on this team," said Creekside coach Sabrina Hartsell. "We knew coming in this game this was going to be an extremely tough team. They are very talented.
"We haven't seen the best of (Hays) yet. She is just now peaking. She has been rock solid and gotten stronger each time she has taken the mound."
In her last seven starts, Hays has given up just one earned run.
The right-hander was able to avert Columbia's best scoring threat in the second, when Hollianne Dohrn and Tatum Morgan opened with back-to-back singles. Brandy Morgan then hit a liner at Hays, who knocked it down and threw out Dohrn at third. She then closed the inning with a strikeout and groundout.
In the fifth, Brittany Morgan walked with one out and Lacey King reached on an error, giving the Tigers runners on first and second. Kayli Kvistad then hit into a force out at second, and sister Kamdyn Kvistad flied out to right.
"I feel like we have set the standard really high for Columbia softball," said senior center fielder Brandy Morgan, who has signed with USF. "I wouldn't want to play with any other group of girls. Tonight just wasn't our night, and sometimes it works out like that.
"But I'm glad I could end my season with these girls. I felt we should have beaten them, but it was just one of those nights where our hitting wasn't together."
In two years, Columbia had won 58 of 62 games, including 31 straight.
"We are a big-hit team, that is how we live and die," Williams said. "We didn't get that one spark the whole game. We won so many lately we thought we had another one in us. I told them how I appreciate every one of them. We lost 2-0 and 3-0 games, but we are still one of the best teams in the state.
"This is a great group of people. I couldn't ask for better chemistry. They will definitely be in my heart for a long time."

To me, freshwater angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare) are the most beautiful of all the fish in the aquarium hobby (including saltwater fish). They glide through the water with their trailing fins. There is nothing to compare with the beautiful shape of these magnificent creatures of the water world, and their coloration can vary, yet they are not bright or gaudy. In my opinion, they (instead of the discus) should be called "king of the freshwater fish."
Angels are so hardy that you should have few deaths if you keep them in the right conditions. Some of you may say, "I've had nothing but bad luck with angelfish," but you'll have trouble with any fish not kept in the right conditions. That can mean not having the right size aquarium, water hardness, water temperature or tankmates, or being overcrowded or by themselves when they are schooling fish.

Hoid is King Elhokar's Wit and entertainer. He is a recurring mysterious character in Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere, whose real identity remains as yet unknown. He has abandoned his real name.[1]
It is virtually impossible to keep anything from Hoid/Wit. He knows useful, important things.[2]
The King's Wit was not a silly court fool such as one might find in other kingdoms. He was a sword, a tool maintained by the king. Insulting others was beneath the dignity [of] the king, so just as one used gloves when forced to handle something vile, the king retained a Wit so he didn't have to debase himself to the level of rudeness or offensiveness.[2]
Hoid is trying to accomplish something on Roshar, something that he thinks is the most important purpose he's ever had; his "old friend" (i.e., Frost) remains unconvinced.[3][4]
Hoid is described by his peers as having white hair, a clever tongue, and an arrowlike face. They note that he dyes his hair sometimes and often wears a disguise which makes his true appearance difficult to ascertain.[5]
Wit is described as appearing as a lighteyed, thin, tall man with dark black hair. He wears a sleek, black uniform and a silver sword at his waist. However, he isn't really a lighteyes, though neither is he a darkeyes.[2] Further, he is described as having a hawklike face: all lines and peaks, with a sharp nose and jaw, delicate eyebrows, and keen eyes.[1]
Further, Hoid is described as a man with a long white beard which seems to be bleached ... to obscure his true identity. He's not as old as he seems to be. Siri thinks that [6]
He is equally at home being called Wit or Hoid, and his several appearances throughout the Cosmere indicate that he is a multi-talented entertainer and intelligent man.
Dalinar doesn't like Wit, but Adolin acknowledges that Wit was almost always good-natured with Renarin.[2]
Wit shows his cleverness with words by insulting Brightlords at the King's Feasts.[7] He demonstrates his storytelling ability by presenting the tale of Derethil and the Wandersail to Kaladin.[8]
Master StorytellerEdit
Hoid is employed by Lightsong as a storyteller to answer Siri's questions in Warbreaker. Lightsong introduces him to Siri who inquires of him the history of Hallandren and its God Kings.[9]
King's WitEdit
Hoid is introduced as King Elhokar's Wit (court Jester); he plays the part of the king's weapon, tasked with insulting those that the King can't afford to personally offend.
He seems to be concerned about the future of Dalinar as he warns him that Sadeas is planning something at one of the King's feasts. Wit leaves the warcamps after this, first to visit Kaladin, then off to Kholinar.
|"I've come to your land to chase an old acquaintance, but I end up spending most of my time hiding from him instead."
–Hoid to Kaladin[8]
During the exchange between Hoid and Kaladin, Hoid reveals that Hoid is not actually his name (originally Midius, then Cephandrius Maxtori), but the "name of someone he (Hoid) should have loved."[8] It is also during this exchange that he reveals that he is a thief of sorts, and that his name is something he stole. He has a relationship with Worldsingers,[10] is Sigzil's former master, and he uses words and stories to influence those around him.
While introducing himself to Kaladin, Hoid relates that he began life as a thought, a concept, words on a page ... and that this was something he stole, himself. He also reveals that at another time he was named for a rock ... a beautiful one that became worthless for his wearing it.
Talenel'Elin EncounterEdit
Hoid is present in the epilogue of The Way of Kings when Talenel'Elin (Talenelat in modern Alethkar) arrives in Kholinar. After Talenel'Elin falls, Wit remarks that the most important thing humanity values is "timeliness" and that he fears Talenel'Elin has arrived too late.[11]
Hoid seemed rather unimpressed by the arrival of Talenel'Elin and even referred to him as "friend." It is also interesting to note that Hoid just happened to be waiting at the spot that Talenel'Elin showed up.
Jasnah EncounterEdit
Wit seemingly has an uncanny ability to appear when people least expect it, which makes him even that much better a character. In the Epilogue of Words of Radiance, when Jasnah "comes back from the dead," Wit says that she Elsecalled, which means that Wit knows more about the Radiants than he has previously led people to believe. He actually is waiting for her in the middle of the wilderness and is there to help her back to civilization upon her arrival.[12]
- Worldhopping - Hoid is very good at manipulating Shadesmar. He can travel between worlds in the Cosmere.
- Lightweaving - an illusion magic that is similar to, but not quite the same as, the Illumination Surge used by the Lightweavers. It is believed that he used this power during his storytelling with Kaladin.
- Allomancy - It has been long suspected that Hoid ate the bead of Lerasium he stole in The Well of Ascension. Plus, the scene in Shallan's flashbacks where he pours metal flakes into his drink, combined with confirmation that allomancy was used in Words of Radiance, seem to support this. "Shallan turned back to the newcomer. She caught, with a subtle movement, the man slipping something from his coat pocket and moving it up toward the drinks. A shock coursed through Shallan. she raised a hand. Poison - The newcomer covertly dumped the pouch's contents into his own drink, then raised it to his lips, gulping down the powder."[13]
- Feruchemy - Brandon has stated that Hoid's ability to always know where he needs to be is connected to Feruchemy in some way. However, we don't know how he obtained this power, or if he is a full Feruchemist or a Ferring.
- Awakening - We know Hoid was on Nalthis previous to The Stormlight Archive and his comments about perfect pitch seem to suggest that he has at least the Second Heightening.[14]
- Unknown immunity: Hoid was threatened by Jasnah with a Shardblade but he remained unconcerned, saying "I'd be surprised if that little knife of yours poses me any real threat ...," implying that he is immune to the effects of a Shardblade or is very nearly so.[12]
Hoid is from a planet called Yolen, where it is believed that Adonalsium was Shattered into sixteen Shards. Hoid was there at the moment of the Shattering but has 'been around forever', long before Adonalsium became the central plot of his story.[15] He's been alive since Dragonsteel, but he has not spent all of that time awake and alert.[16] He uses his unique abilities to move forward through time, though it isn't known at what pace he can do so, and he has definitely not found a way to go back through time. Most common speculation is that Hoid has found a way to either put himself into stasis, or perhaps used some form of compounded effect to slide forward through time until he gets where he needs to be. He's found a way to cheat the space-time continuum by using some time dilation techniques. That said, he is far older (both in relative and real time) than a normal person can live.[17] In fact, he and the dragon, Frost, are the oldest living entities in the Cosmere.
Hoid is constrained by magic like everyone else, but he is far more adept at using it. He is very good at using Shadesmar - the Cognitive Realm, connecting all the worlds in the Cosmere, particularly to travel between worlds within it.[18]
Sanderson has said he has an old short story from the very early days where Hoid is on a planet trying to figure out how the local magic system works.[citation needed]
Hoid has a 'bead of Lerasium', from the world Scadrial, a powerful magical metal that grants magical powers; and a 'Moon Scepter' from the world Sel.
Hoid does not hold a Shard.[19]
Cosmere AppearancesEdit
Hoid first appeared in Brandon's 6th book, Elantris; next in his 7th book, Dragonsteel, then in his 8th book, White Sand, and has appeared in every Cosmere novel.
- In Elantris - Hoid appears as a beggar whom Sarene trusts to bring weapons into New Elantris, but one who will only meet with her at night. Still, she knows that he and his men know where to deliver the boxes she gives them to deploy. He has managed to survive a decade on the streets of the city of Kae without being caught. Sarene has never seen his face, but assumes from his voice that he is an older man.[20] In the Tenth Anniversary Author's Definitive Edition of Elantris, Hoid is afforded the endnote of the novel in which he removes bandages from his body, having expected to have been transformed into a resurrected Elantrian. In his conversation with a seon, he expresses that beauty lies in the fact that there are secrets that remain unknown.[21]
- In Mistborn: The Final Empire - Hoid appears as an informant who poses in guise of a beggar in the capital city of Luthadel.
- In Mistborn: The Well of Ascension - Hoid spends most of the book looking for the Well in the Terris homeland in the north. He is present when the Inquisitors destroy it and leads the evacuation of the Terris people to Luthadel. On the way back he is the Terris leader that Elend and Spook meet as they chase after Vin when she realises where the Well is. Once Hoid realises this too, based on his conversation with Elend, he worldhops to the Well and steals a bead of Lerasium. The footprints that Vin sees leading up to the well are Hoid's and the smashed container is his doing. Hoid is not named in the book but is there to be picked out by description.
- In Mistborn: The Hero of Ages - Hoid again appears as an informant, but at the last second Vin decides not to meet with him.
- In The Emperor's Soul - Hoid is only referenced. Initially he was featured in the prologue speaking with the main character and setting some of the plot in motion, but it didn't fit and was cut before final revision. However, Hoid did want the Moon Scepter for more than getting Shai imprisoned at the beginning of the novella.[22]
- In Warbreaker - Hoid is summoned by Lightsong and also appears as a storyteller who performs for princess Siri. He uses a flute when telling a story of the first Returned to Siri and Lightsong. He Lightweaves while using the flute so it may have some kind of Investiture in it.[23]
- In Mistborn: The Alloy of Law - Hoid appears as scruffy-looking "beggar in black" at the wedding dinner, but is not named. The events happening here are not of deep interest to Hoid, unlike the events in the original trilogy, so he plays a much smaller role.
- In Words of Radiance, Rock reveals that he has previously encountered Hoid. This occurs during an instance when Kaladin goes out drinking with Bridge Four before meeting with Graves and Moash. As Rock is telling his story about the hot springs on top of his homeland, "The Peaks", he says that they are on top just water, but below something else, "Place of gods". Rock said further that he met Lunu'anaki, god of mischief and travel, who asked him what year it was. While he says that Lunu'anaki has white hair, he further mentions the angular face used to describe Hoid over and over.[24] (Speculatively, it is possible that the pool on the Peaks can possibly connect to Shadesmar or to another world in the Cosmere.)
- In Mistborn: Shadows of Self, Hoid appears as Wax's new coachman and is hailed by Wayne so that Wayne might ride on top of the carriage with him. He transports Wax and Wayne while Wax has his first extended conversation with Harmony.
- In Mistborn: The Bands of Mourning, Hoid appears as a seemingly blind beggar who hurls a coin with exacting accuracy at Wax's head after Wax has tossed him a banknote, after Hoid had also given his name. When Wax approaches and asks Kelesina about the coin, she becomes nervous. In the epilogue, Wax discovers the coin is a coppermind that anyone can tap. It appears to be filled with memories of Kelsier's journey to southern Scadriel.
- In Dragonsteel (unfinished) - Hoid will play the part of protagonist and primary viewpoint. The plot will take place before all of the other books.
- Liar of Partinel (unfinished) - The original Hoid is the recently deceased senior jesk and master Lightweaver. The Hoid featured in all other stories, called Midus here, stole the original Hoid's name, as mentioned above.
- Hoid - The name of his master, which he assumed, after his master had been assassinated.[25]
- Topaz - A name Hoid called himself in the original Dragonsteel.
- Cephandrius Maxtori[26]
- A storyteller in the Court of the Gods[27]
- Roamer (by Galladon in the Purelake)[5]
- The King's Wit[1]
- Midius (Hoid's original name) - "After a rock".[8]
- Imperial Fool of the Rose Empire[28]
- Lunu'anaki (by Rock describing a meeting in the Horneater Peaks)[24]
- Dust (by Zahel)[29]
- Drifter (by Kelsier)[30]
- The character Hoid existed before the concept of Adonalsium was developed. He first appeared in a short story Brandon wrote long ago, going by the name Kamp.[31] He was on a planet trying to figure out how the magical system of the area worked.[32]
- Brandon has stated that Hoid is his favorite character, but he couldn't say why without giving away spoilers.[33]
- Brandon may eventually write a parallel novel to the Mistborn series that chronicles what Hoid was up to behind the scenes.[34]
- Hoid loves bacon.[35]

- Are both computers running Windows? Using the Network Connections control panel, open the Properties panel for your wireless adapter, and make sure that the "Client For Microsoft Networks" and "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks" are enabled.
- Are both computers in the same Workgroup? On Windows XP, open My Computer, View System Information, choose the Computer Name tab, and look at the Workgroup. For older Windows systems, you can find the Workgroup name on the Network control panel Identification tab. Your PCs should be in the same Workgroup, and each should have a different Computer Name.
- Is at least one computer configured to share a file or printer? For example, on Windows XP, select the folder you want to share, use the right-click menu to pick "Sharing and Security," check "Share this Folder", click "Permissions", and set permissions as desired. You can let Everyone read and/or write to the folder, or you can permit/deny access by individual Users or Groups. On older Windows systems, use the Network control panel's Access tab to select share-level access control, then use the "File and Print Sharing" button to allow File and/or Printer sharing.
- Now try browsing the Network Neighborhood. You may need to reboot your PCs before any changes made in steps 1-3 take effect. If you still can't browse the Network Neighborhood, try searching for a computer by name or IP address. If that fails, open a command window and try using the "NET USE" command. (Enter "NET HELP" of "NET USE /H" to learn more about using these commands.) For Windows XP, see the "Set up a Home or Small Office Network" wizard on the Network Connections page.

- Spraying any of the NPC characters. They'll yell something like "NOOOOOO!!!" and a string of random angry gibberish. Except for the Nokis, the Sunflowers and Peach; the Nokis just retreat into their shells, and the sunflowers mumble gibberish that sounds like "Oh, I'm loving it!" Peach just blocks the spray with her umbrella, and the biggest sunflower giggles an adorable sound like "lo-wanny-hee-hee-hah!"
Chuggaaconroy: (annotation for video: Oh, I'd love a dick!) "I swear, it's what I always thought they said when I was, like, an 11 year old boy." The beginning of many innuendos.
- Talk to Toadsworth. Sometimes he'll just scream what can only be described as "YABLABBABLABBA!". He also makes this sound when you spray him (after he spins around and almost loses his balance). He actually remembers this gibberish in Mario Party 7.
- The boss fight music tracks are either this or the Most Annoying Sound. They make use of rather whimsical instruments that either intentionally make a farce out of the battle or simply grate on your eardrums.
- Even though Peach is clearly not Bowser Jr.'s mother, it's kind of funny and heavily disturbing that she was considering the possibility of that happening.
