A collection of clean-eating recipes the entire family will get excited about.
Eating clean isn�t a weight-loss diet, but a healthy lifestyle�a lifestyle that incorporates natural foods into every day meals and eliminates preservative-packed processed foods. Fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains such as brown rice and quinoa, lean meats, and natural complex carbohydrates are all cornerstones of the clean eating lifestyle. But even though clean eating is all about eating better, as a parent, it can be hard coming up with healthy foods that kids will eat willingly�you�re certainly not alone if your child runs at the sight of a carrot. So to freshen up your family�s eating habits, we�ve compiled a collection of family-friendly recipes that are as delicious as they are mindful of clean eating ideals. Breakfast [caption id="attachment_330576" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Henry Fong[/caption] Prosciutto Wrapped Frittata These bites may sound gourmet, but they are surprisingly simple to make. Plus, what kid can resist a ham and egg breakfast they can eat with their hands? [caption id="attachment_330590" align="aligncenter" width="487"] U.S. Apple Association[/caption] Apple Breakfast Parfaits This simple breakfast is filled with protein and fiber for keeping your child�s mind and body strong all day. [caption id="attachment_330572" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Meredith Steele[/caption] Turkey Breakfast Sausage Patties The pre-made breakfast sausage patties you can get at the grocery store are oftentimes filled with preservatives and numerous artificial flavorings. Replace those purchases with ingredients for healthy homemade sausage patties. Once they are made, freeze leftovers for a quick breakfast any morning of the week. [caption id="attachment_330580" align="aligncenter" width="487"] Mark Boughton Photography / styling by Teresa Blackburn[/caption] Cricket�s Breakfast Cake This kid-friendly breakfast is more like a frittata than a cake. Once baked, use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes for a little added fun. Lunch [caption id="attachment_330578" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Amy Beadle Roth[/caption] Avocado and Parmesan Pita Sandwich Avocado and Parmesan make this sandwich deliciously healthy while a whole-wheat pita provides a fun hand-held meal. [caption id="attachment_330581" align="aligncenter" width="487"] William Berry[/caption] Charcoal Grilled Shrimp If your child is a shrimp eater, make sure to make a double batch of these beauties for dinner and then serve the leftovers cold for lunch during the week. [caption id="attachment_330560" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Meredith Steele[/caption] Roasted Peach Parfaits The extra step to roast peaches may sound daunting, but it�s worth every second. These peaches become naturally sweetened when caramelized meaning the roasting will save you from adding tons of unwanted sugar to a nutritious, tasty dessert. [caption id="attachment_330577" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Mark Boughton Photography / styling by Teresa Blackburn[/caption] Lunchbox Tortellini This delightful pasta meal takes only minutes to prepare and will be the envy of the school cafeteria.

Dinner [caption id="attachment_330587" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Courtesy of the National Fisheries Institute[/caption] Seaside Salmon Sliders Have burger fanatics in your family? Indulge their love of the grill with these healthy salmon sliders. [caption id="attachment_330583" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Mark Boughton Photography / styling by Teresa Blackburn[/caption] Asian Express Beef Lettuce Wraps These crunchy lettuce wraps are undeniable proof that finger foods don�t need to solely consist of chicken nuggets and mozzarella sticks from the grocer�s freezer aisle. [caption id="attachment_330574" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Meredith Steele[/caption] Spinach and Toasted Walnut Pesto Pasta Calling on healthy spinach, protein-packed walnuts, and whole-wheat pasta, this one-dish meal is a �lick the plate clean� kind of recipe. [caption id="attachment_330584" align="aligncenter" width="487"] Mark Boughton Photography / styling by Teresa Blackburn[/caption] Nora�s Grilled Chicken This simple grilled chicken recipe is much healthier than it�s fried brethren found at fast food joints. Plus, it�s mellow on the seasonings, making it a great choice for picky eaters. Snacks [caption id="attachment_330588" align="aligncenter" width="487"] Maya Visnyei[/caption] Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie Quick and easy, this nutritious smoothie recipe cuts down on typical shake mainstays (ice cream and whole milk) in favor of greek yogurt, soy milk and almond butter. [caption id="attachment_330571" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Meredith Steele[/caption] Blood Orange and Honey Gummies Sweet and tangy blood oranges are infused with golden honey to create treats so vibrant on their own that there is no need for food dye or preservatives. [caption id="attachment_330589" align="aligncenter" width="487"] U.S. Apple Association[/caption] Apple-Cran Granola Bars Packed with a variety of perfectly textured ingredients, these granola bars are the perfect on-the-go snack.

So what�s in this recipe? Blackberries, mint leaves, honey and lime. That�s it. Dessert [caption id="attachment_330575" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Meredith Steele[/caption] No-Bake Dark Chocolate Cherry Granola Bars These delicious and easy-to-make bars call on brown rice crisps and dark chocolate.

Trevin M. Sanders, 18, was charged with two counts of aggravated homicide for the murders of Robert and Colleen Grube. Mercer County Sheriff Jeff Grey made the announcement this morning at a press conference held at the Sheriff's Department in Celina. Sanders is currently in prison at Michigan City, Indiana, on an unrelated charge. During the 18 minute conference, Grey thanked those involved with the investigation, summarized the efforts involved in the investigation, and repeated information about Bryant L. Rhoades, 22, of Union City who was arrested and charged with obstruction of justice in conjunction with the case. Sheriff Grey said the turning point in the investigation came in January 2012 as a result of arrests made by the Jay County Indiana Sheriff's department.

Gyms are funny places. You just need to take a look around before you start seeing the broad types of people who haunt these centers. There are the walking-talking advertisements of gyms as a whole. Found in both male and female types, these folks have a simple and single motive - to make others feel awful about the way they look. You will be trudging along on the treadmill, taking a look every now and then at the timer and wondering if it was working alright because it seemed to be terribly slow before one of these specimens swoops down on the next machine. They will start gliding at speeds that make you giddy and then decide that they had a good warm-up and now may be a good time to push it a little bit. This is when they fire themselves with a bit of plutonium and really start to whizz by. I often take my glasses off at this point and clean them, convinced that the blurry vision is caused by an errant speck of dust. It isn't. It is just Ben Johnson here running as if chased by a packs of Dobes.
Then there are the sulks. These people don't want to come to the gym. They would much rather have a wrestle with the Dobes once they are done with the racers above. But their doctor thinks otherwise and the family, bloody ingrates are in cahoots with the medicine wo/man. They move around slowly and look at everyone with such mournful eyes that the sun gets blighted by a grey cloud cover and everyone feels that they will never be happy again. I have often seen the people who work out next to the sulks burst into howls of misery, such is their power to suck joy out of life.
There are some young men and women who probably treat the gym as a place to scope the dating field. They are dressed attractively and hair is opened and tied up many, many times, sometimes with a becoming swish of the head. Make-up is in evidence and lashes are fluttered. The men are obviously very humorous because these young ladies are often found in the throes of helpless giggles.
There are also the models. We are not worthy, the gym people want to scream and fall down at their feet. With their perfect legs and toned midriffs, the models keep to themselves, working out with a stern 'we are people too' look on their faces.
I could also tell you about the corporate paunch and the housewifely saddle-bags but it is not in my nature to be mean.
The first step in the noble endeavour to regain fitness is obviously weight training. Obvious to the trainer, that is. The first week was tough. The trainer would hand me some weights and ask me to rock some squats or burpees or presses or *insert choice of torture*. Two minutes later, he would tell me that I could start whenever I was ready. I am ready, I squeaked from under the weights, but I don't think they want to be lifted. Tch, tch, went the trainer, look at you, long break, no stamina, no yoga also aa, oho, oho, chalo koi nahin, we will make double the effort.
Double the effort is trainer-speak for double the pain.
I think I go into some kind of an exercise-induced trance once the session is over. Spirits, the evil kind, mind, take over my body and soul and everything in between and demand sacrifice. We want carbs, they chant, bring forth a loaf of bread and sacrifice it at the altar of your fitness. And don't forget the butter. I don't really want to eat bread, or pasta, or paranthas, or anything that tastes super-duper divinely delicious, as long time readers will testify, with or without their hands on Jane Fonda DVDs. But there's only so much I can do with the supernatural. Only after I have stuffed myself to the gills are the spirits somewhat appeased. Then I need to take a long, long nap to shrug off the remaining effects because one cannot really be too careful with these things. I normally wake up after four hours with a 'where am I' trembling on my lips and a ravenous appetite brought forth by the exorcism.
A few days later after starting the program, I weighed myself with the trainer watching on. And the fat, like a loyal friend, had stuck to me though thick and thin. The trainer looked at the scales with a sense of amazement and wonder misting his eyes. I too tried to look puzzled. What happened, what happened, he moaned. No clue, I said because I know him to be a man of science and logic and my account of the ghost figures wouldn't have gone down very well. I think this impacted the good man a great deal. He has since decided that personal training is too fast-paced a profession for him and has taken to one-legged yoga in the upper hills of the Himalayas. Beats the traffic, I say.
I love exercise and cannot recommend it enough.

This is a generic set of instruction on how to obtain a product purchase code for an item you bought.
This set was specifically made generic so that any Envato Author may use these images as they see fit. No link-back, No credit, No Love required; however, please do not hotlink these images!! Save & Upload them to your own server!!!
The 1200px and 800px are too large to nicely display here, but this is the 400px one:
To download the images, right click the link(s) below and select Save or Save As. Save them to your local PC then upload them to your server. Images have been ran through SmushIt.400×300 | 800×600 | 1200×900
Ok but Im a little lost to what use this is
The Envato API allows authors to verify purchases using the buyers purchase code. These instructions show you how to obtain that purchase code.
So, if you bought one of my scripts and needed help with it, I may ask for the purchase code so that I can be sure that you actually bought my item.
If you are not asked for a purchase code then you probably wont need to know what it is. The only person who should request this code is the author of the product that you bought.
OR…you just click on the link in the email to see if the person bought your product.
This is for support forums.
BoostShock said
OR…you just click on the link in the email to see if the person bought your product.
That would be great if the buyer used the contact from on our profile page. But for those of us who have external support forums/scripts/sites, asking for the purchase code is the only way we can verify the purchase. Not all buyers know how/where to find the code – so this should help them find it.
Top job!
All my new items use licence code validation, so does my support website. This will assist greatly in my instructions for how users can find their code.
Added to my support website already just above the licence code: http://support.dtbaker.com.au/support-ticket.html
A fellow brit just posted this: http://graphicriver.net/forums/thread/alternative-purchase-verifier-script-/57605
Many thanks! I was about to pull my hair out looking for a purchase code so I can register at a theme providers supprt forum… and then I found your post so my hair remains intact.
Hi, I still cannot find the purchase code!! When I go to 'Downloads' the only option even close to the License Certificate link you mention is called 'Regular License' however this just takes you to a page with License information, not a specific purchase code for the item. Can you assist please? Thanks, Steve

MBoSC's crew leader training class took a field trip to Camp Tamarancho, near Fairfax in Marin County, this weekend to ride and learn about the new Endor Flow Trail that opened there this spring.
The Endor Flow Trail is the first of its kind in the Bay Area. The trail has over ninety trail features in less than a mile—that's ninety rollers, jumps, and berms. Jim Jacobsen and Kevin Smallman, who were both instrumental in construction of the trail, walked us through the project and gave us a feature by feature breakdown of design and construction techniques. Key points of interest included massive redwood crib walls, built to support berms on steep side slopes, custom contoured bridges and progressive drainage design.
The field trip wasn't strictly observational, however—crew leaders conducted some hands on research by putting their rubber to the dirt and got after several laps on the flow trail themselves. Hoots and hollers were punctuated by the sound of cornering knobs being pushed to their limits in the deep, deep, berms of Endor. Hella Gs achieved. Brraappp.
This field trip marks the culmination of the first session of the crew leader training class. Now that crew leaders have received formal training in trail construction techniques, and have seen and ridden a proper flow trail, they will be prepared to lead volunteers during the construction of the new flow trail in Demo Forest.
If you are interested in participating in the next session of the Crew Leader Training Class contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

Skip to comments.About that birth certificate (which Obama refuses to produce)
Posted on 04/25/2010 12:35:44 PM PDT by American Dream 246
One of the most ingenious things the Obama campaign did in 2008 was to nullify all questions about why he refused to produce his birth certificate, by stoking the birther conspiracy that he was not born in the United States and, thus, painting anyone who talked about his birth certificate as insane.
Its classic magic trick distraction.
Whenever anyone questions why the current President of the United States refuses to release his original birth certificate, his followers immediately launch into an Alinsky-based attack on the person who brought the matter up attacking that person as a birther.
This is a remarkably effective trick, because no one ever sees the REAL reason he does not want his birth certificate released. The birther screaming and yelling keeps attention focused away from what his original birth certificate would reveal about his father, Barack Hussein Obama Sr.
In 1961, when Obama was indeed born in Hawaii, his father would have most likely be listed as Arab, not black, on his birth certificate. Barack Hussein Obama Sr. was only 1/4 black, and identified himself as a Kenyan Arab. According to how the British would have recorded him in their documents back then, BHO Sr. would have been Arab.
Furthermore, if Hawaiis birth certificates in 1961 were like our own birth certificates from Ohio, Texas, Pennsylvania, and New York in the 1970s, then Obamas official and original birth certificate would have been handwritten, with the religion of his parents recorded under their names. Thats what all of our birth certificates say, anyway. Catholic is listed under most of our mothers and fathers names, with Baptist and Episcopalian on two of those slots.
Weve always believed the reason Obama does not produce his birth certificate is because his father is listed as Arab and Muslim on that form, which is what he would have been recorded as in 1961 in Hawaii.
That cuts against the narrative that Obama rode to the White House, which he affirmed in his 2010 census which is that he is black. This is how he has chosen to self-identify, and its the tool he used to advance himself so fast through the Democrat Party. He even had William Ayers write two books all about his racial grievances.
None of that flies if the public sees that his father was an Arab Muslim, as recorded on that birth certificate.
The public would have a very bad reaction to this, and would look upon the Lightbringer as a fraud and liar.
The whole White House of cards would collapse. Re-election 2012 would be a non-starter.
Hence, the White House and every Democrat in office is doing everything it can to make sure Obamas original birth certificate never sees the light of day.
We believe if efforts in Arizona, Georgia, and Oklahoma succeed and they, and other states, pass legislation requiring presidential candidates to produce their original birth certificates to appear on the 2012 ballot, there will be some sort of fire or other accident at the Hall of Records in Honolulu. Expect a discovery relative to that which announces Obamas original birth certificate, on file in Hawaii, was destroyed in that fire or other mysterious accident (beneficial to the White House). Because Obama moved around so much as a child, and because his mother and grandmother are now dead, the White House will announce they are unable to locate his familial copies of his original birth certificate. Thus, the recently computer generated Certificate of Live Birth produced by Obama will be the only document available for public inspection.
Obamas narrative depends on his father being a black atheist from Kenya a goat herder.
The reason the birth certificate will never see the light of day is because it reveals his father to be an Arab Muslim, and damn proud of it.
Whats happened here is that Obama promoted a lie about who his father really was and he did this to get elected to high office. Now in that office, he needs to do everything possible to protect and eternally perpetuate that lie, lest he lose it all.
And the main strategy for protecting the lie is to demonize anyone asking questions about it which is the Alinsky Method. Attack anyone asking where the birth certificate is and why it wont be produced, call them birthers, and paint them as crazy so that no one ever stops to look at the REAL reason the White House wont produce a simple document and end all controversy.
Because they do not want you to see that Barack Hussein Obama Sr. was an Arab Muslim, according to that document.
The fact that he was born in Kenya is the only thing that could disqualify him.
All the other stuff won't matter.
Until I see a REAL BRITH CERIFICATE, I will believe he was born in Kenya.....period....and of COURSE his father was a Muslim!!
Birth certificates don't list a religion.
Maybe Obama can re-title his book to "LIES from my father".
sounds good to me.....actually sounds sane
I am thinking some did, but it still will not matter. He is still too big to fail.
" ... his father would have most likely be listed as Arab, not black, on his birth certificate ..."
This may be a matter of definition, that once again could be resolved by referencing this mysterious birth certificate, but you seem to take the position that someone cannot be both Arab and black.
I recall seeing some photos of Barry's/Obama's (whateverhisnameis) peripatetic sire and he was as black as a woodchuck's a**whole.
A lot of people think that Obama WAS born in the US, but there was something on that birth certificate so deadly he does not want it out.
Unqualified Obama rode the "half-black" meme into the WH. Arab instead of black would cause a lot of political damage.
BTW, isn't there some sentence in one of his books that he was shocked on finding his birth certificate? Remember his mother loathed her own country, race and religion. Anything could be on there.
We all know his father was Kenyan making him ineligible. We all know the usurper thinks the muslim call for prayer is the most beautiful sound in the world and can say it perfectly. We all know he bows down at every opportunity to muslims and Arabs. We all know he's a liar. We all know he's wasting taxpayer money on the cover up. None of this is a secret.
I think it would. If obama portrayed himself as African American and he is not, I think that would matter quite a lot.
I beg to differ. The fact that he was born a British Subject is what disqualifies him, PERIOD.
It doesn't matter if he were born in the WHITE HOUSE, his status as a British Subject via his father at birth makes him at the LEAST a Dual Citizen (if Stanley Ann really was legally able to transfer US citizenship, which is in doubt acc. to the laws in 1961 Hawaii). Therefore Obama is NOT a Natural Born Citizen, and he is NOT Constitutionally eligible to hold the elected position of President of the United States.
However, I personally think it's Patrick Fitzgerald's Blagojevich trial that will lead to the President's impeachment. According to the documents filed it does appear that Obama lied to FBI investigators at least twice — a felony if true. The hearings SHOULD be starting already, but perhaps they will soon enough.
THEN, we MIGHT see addressing of this issue.
I disagree. Muslim, Arab, White, different father would all have an effect.
The 'Birther' distraction is also to muudy the fact that even if born in Hawaii, Obama is not a Natural Born Citizen.
If it mattered to the American People, he could be called the first Arab American president now.
The fact of the matter is that we have no LAWS requiring how to classify the race of individuals, so Zero is free to call himself an African American.
"....and of COURSE his father was a Muslim!!"
That his father was a Muslim is irrelevant — nowhere does it say that the POTUS has to be Christian. But the fact that his father was NOT A US CITIZEN is information that is very much relevant. It means that 0 cannot be a natural born US citizen.
What I find much more plausible is that Barack is not the child of Stanley Ann Dunham and Barack Obama Sr.
Grandpa Dunham used to hang out in the bar with Frank Marshall Davis while they had open sex orgies.
One of the underage girls from the bar got pregnant, was sent to Indonesia or Kenya to give birth. Then Annie brought the child back to Hawaii. Her parents put a 'birth' announcement in the local newspapers. She also married Obama Sr. to give the child 'a father', on paper.
Then, Annie left the kid with the Grandparents to raise 'as their own child'. (it was half true anyway)
Annie then went on her travels about the world, and met/married Soetoro.
Since Hillbuzz are supporters of Hillary, and Hillary supporters got royally screwed by Barry, I'm always interested in their insight.
There are no black Arabs. Arabs are semitic, like Jews.
That's one of the scenarios that I think is plausible. Barry is the son of his "gramps". He has the Dunham chin.
Laughing so hard my eyes are tearing. Thanks for the visual.
For what it's worth .... I've always thought Obama physically looked more Middle-Eastern than African.
Makes one wonder how 'hate crimes' make it through a court of 'law'.
Mine is a 1970s Ohio BC and there is no religion listed anywhere. There is not even a space for it.
anyone know...?
Makes one wonder how the concept of a 'hate crime' made it through the Supreme Court.
It would explain why he is able to hide the real birth certificate. There is none. The one is Hawaii was faked and inserted sometime just prior to the election. That is why the officials in Hawaii can't find the 'original long form'.
His father was 'grandpa' and his mother was an imported sex slave whose origin and nationality were unknown.
I don't blame him. I wouldn't want anyone else to know either. Poor kid, must have had a tough life. Maybe we could make it up to him by making him President.
This birther stuff makes you wonder why Bill and Hillary didn't exploit it.
If he hasn't destroyed himself and his party, it will be fun to see what he gets from his own side in 2012.
I'm not holding my breath, but the CIA and the military at the very least ought to provide some fun
It does not state the religion of no one on Hawaiian birth certificates. But on Kenyan Birth Certificates?
If anything, Obama is more African American, than any of those in our country who claim they are African American.
He, according to the rumors, may actually have been born in Africa.
Obama did say, when first questioned about his BC, that the contents of it would only cause embarrassment to those who were attempting to reveal it.
Yep. So does his sister..... I mean mother.
How would you convince a 17 year old girl to take this responsibility of raising another woman's baby?
And...Why would Obama Sr.( who has no blood relation to any of the parties involved in the conspiracy) be dumb enough to go along with the scam. ?
Sorry...This explanation is entirely to bizarre.
It says you've got to be logged in but gives no opportunity for a person to register as a site user. When I tried to log in it took me to my Wordpress login but told me it was an invalid username when I entered my login as Butterdezillion.
I wonder who CAN post there?
Well.... I guess if they want to remain ignorant that's their choice.
If Obama has committed illegal online gambling then more power to them for going after him, but I wish they would realize that the HDOH has already confirmed that Obama's posted COLB is a forgery.
See http://butterdezillion.wordpress.com/2010/01/11/red-flags-in-hawaii-2/
Obama and his Chicago thugs had plenty of dirt on Hillary as well. Think of it as mutually assured destruction.
But...Who had more skin in the game?
If Obama had been revealed as a non-natural born citizen, he would have apologized, said he was "Oh My bad! Didn't know!" and continued being Senator.
Hillary on the other hand would have been facing jail time and possible murder charges.
I too have thought so much.
I agree. More middle-eastern than african.
The argument that the birth certificate shows Obama Sr. to be Arab is not nearly enough to explain why Obama has gone to such extremes to prevent its release.
Oh...And by the way,....As far as lawyering up, it is far more significant that Obama used Department of Justice resources and U.S. attorneys to prevent the release of these common documents.
Obama WASTED Department of Justice resources at a time when plots were being laid to blow planes out of the sky, and KILL soldiers on their bases and recruitment centers.
If Obama is misusing the Department of Justice attorneys in an effort to play the game of "gotcha" on the birthers, I don't think Americans will be amused.
I only know ONE thing! My original birth certificate is in my hand at this moment. It's hand written and and has the Cook County Seal on it. Anyone that wants to see is welcome. Any one who wants to examine it and try to prove it's a fraud is more than welcome. And I'm just a lowly proletarian. Don't you think this mulatto POS should have to do the same as the guy he is subjecting to communist control??????????????????
If you have the document produce it to prove that you know what it says, not what you believe it says. Then you don't have to speculate what "they" do and don't want Americans to see.
Otherwise, you're just blowing smoke rings. (which are a shaped like an "O")
His father would have been listed by whatever racial description he used when he personally filled out the form himself or volunteered the information to whatever clerk was filling out the form for him.
Furthermore, if Hawaiis birth certificates in 1961 were like our own birth certificates from Ohio, Texas, Pennsylvania, and New York in the 1970s, then Obamas official and original birth certificate would have been handwritten, with the religion of his parents recorded under their names.
Why do people try and pimp this garbage when a simple google search will quickly show that no Hawaiian birth certificate (nor I suspect any other state) has a field for religion of parents?
Two interesting things on my Chicago Cook County BC. First, it asks if the mother was tested for Syphilis. Second, it asks if the birth was legitimate. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
I wish someone, anyone who was born in Hawaii would spend the money to order their original birth certificate from the Hawaii Department of Health and that they would then post it on the internet, just to embarrass Obama into doing the same thing.
Thus far no one that I know of has done that and the state says that you can't get the a copy of the original from them any longer. They say that since 2001 only the computerized Certification of Live Birth version is available.
Two interesting things on my Chicago Cook County BC. First, it asks if the mother was tested for Syphilis. Second, it asks if the birth was legitimate. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
There is no additional information on a Hawaii Long form that relates to constitutional eligibility to be president.
The Birther distraction is also to muudy the fact that even if born in Hawaii, Obama is not a Natural Born Citizen.
"Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by[the US Supreme Court in the case of US versus] Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are natural born Citizens for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents. Just as a person born within the British dominions [was] a natural-born British subject at the time of the framing of the U.S. Constitution, so too were those born in the allegiance of the United States natural-born citizens.Indiana Court of Appeals, Ankeny et. al. v The Governor of Indiana, Mitch Daniels, Nov. 12, 2009
Exactly. The Obama campaign also added reference to his British citizenship online that first week of November, 2008. Why then but not sooner, but to attempt to hide the issue in plain site?

For Gisela Motta and Leandro Lima, sharing the creative process is as lawless as the dynamics of love. They've been partners for over 15 years, since they met at the School of Visual Arts (FAAP), and have been making interactive artworks together ever since.
At first, they worked primarily with video, partly because they had access to recording and editing tools, but also because of their passion for cinema. Their relationship's dynamic is often explored in their pieces, and sometimes they even use themselves as characters. Technology, for Gisela and Leandro, is process of discovery and problem solving concepts that have not yet been explored. At the same time, they want to think about the issues of everyday life.

Taylor Bridge Fire to be fully contained by Wednesday
CLE ELUM, Wash. - Officials are slowly winding down firefighting operations as full containment of a wildfire that destroyed dozens of homes in central Washington is expected Wednesday.
Fire management spokesman Mark Morrow said Friday that firefighters have pinned the fire to a small drainage area on the north side of the Taylor Bridge fire and are working in rugged terrain to establishment a containment line.
Morrow says the number of firefighters working the blaze will be reduced from about 600 to 400 by the end of Friday and even further Saturday, as the fire becomes less active.
The fire east of Cle Elum was 91 percent contained by Friday morning. It has burned more than 36 square miles, or 23,500 acres, about 75 miles east of Seattle.
Authorities have confirmed 61 homes and 35 outbuildings were destroyed and about seven other properties were damaged.
The fire started Aug. 13 near a bridge construction site, though the exact cause remains under investigation.

Brad Mehldau at Vicar Street in Dublin
Oct 17, 2009 12:00 AM
Brad Mehldau (piano) "Universally admired as one of the most adventurous pianists to arrive on the jazz scene in years" (Los Angeles Times), Brad Mehldau has forged a path which embodies the essence of jazz exploration, classical romanticism and pop allure. From critical acclaim as a bandleader to major international exposure in collaborations with Pat Metheny, Renee Fleming, and Joshua Redman, Mehldau continues to garner admiration from both jazz purists and music enthusiasts alike.
Larry Grenadier (Bass) attended Stanford University where he received a BA Degree in English Literature. After moving to the East Coast he played Gary Burton Band, touring US and Europe. He moved to New York City and played with Joe Henderson, Betty Carter, Pat Metheny and the John Scofield Group. For the past year when not touring and recording with Brad Mehldau Trio he tours and records with the Pat Metheny Trio.
Jeff Ballard (Drums, Percussion) grew up in Santa Cruz, California. Toured with Ray Charles from 1988 – 1990. Moved to New York in 1990. Since then, he has played and recorded with Lou Donaldson, Danilo Perez, Chick Corea, and Joshua Redman to name a few. Currently, as well as being a member of the Brad Melhdau Trio, he is a co-leader of the collective group FLY (feat. Mark Turner, Larry Grenadier, Jeff Ballard), and Joshua Redman's Elastic Band.

Add 'filmmaking' to those resumes
Two years of writing and producing pays off as Progress Village Middle students debut a movie.
By ANDREW MEACHAM
Published May 4, 2007
After the previews and a turn-off-your-cell-phone request, Progress Village Middle students will finally hunker down, nibble popcorn and see the public debut of their first film tonight.
Unexcused Absence plays at Muvico Theaters in Centro Ybor. Students and faculty of the arts magnet school spent two years making it.
"I'm kind of scared, " Bri Ernewein, 13, acknowledged days before the screening.
More than 900 people participated in the movie, which students wrote with the help of drama teacher Tyler Leavitt.
Music director Steve Pfaffman masterminded the effort.
He persuaded students to come in after school and to endure shooting up to 65 takes for one 30-second scene.
Unexcused Absence stars student Alex Lubek as the genius IQ, who hypnotizes teachers and administrators through a subliminal message to leave the school grounds.
At first, chaos reigns. Students run wild.
Faculty members drive a school bus until they run out of gas. They end up in a swamp, a situation somewhere between Lord of the Flies and Survivor.
Once the euphoria has passed, students resume classes. But it's just like the old days, a tug of war between bored students and frustrated student teachers. Can they really do a better job?
The answer may surprise you.
The movie lasts 1 hour, 15 minutes and cost less than $10, 000 to make. Progress Village contracted the main theme to a composer, but faculty wrote the rest of the music.
Pfaffman will submit the film to local festivals.
If audiences respond well, he said he may submit it to the Sundance Film Festival.
Melissa Worsfold, 13, will never forget spending 10 hours to shoot a single scene. No physical detail could change.
"If you were drinking something, you would have to fill your glass to the same level each time, " she said.
So when an actor showed up one day with a Mohawk, directors altered the story to fit the hair.
A blooper reel grew. Several students spit out their magic study potion - warm Tang - onto desktops.
Pfaffman got airsick while filming the Tampa skyline from a plane. Some of the outtakes roll during the film's credits.
Over the course of two years, student attention waned at times, Leavitt said.
"I had to keep reminding them, 'It's going to happen, ' " he said.
Andrew Meacham can be reached at 661-2431 or firstname.lastname@example.com

'Unexcused Absence'

Now Where Did I Put That PST File?
Infrastructure may be "cool again," as the then CTO of Zynga declared at last year's Interop. But the recent focus on server virtualization and software-defined networking meant that, for storage professionals, it seemed like the server and network guys were having all the fun.
Well, it's time to pull out your boogie board, because the virtualization and "software-defined" wave is sweeping through the storage market, leaving us on the cusp of a software-fueled upsurge that will optimize storage resource deployment and management for virtual (and increasingly peripatetic) workloads and networks.
But new product categories like storage hypervisors and software-defined storage aren't the only exciting innovations. Storage has always been driven by better physics in the form of new hardware technology, and 2013 continues that trend. Of course disk drives keep getting denser, but the real hardware advances are in solid state, where flash memory is becoming faster and less pricey. The result is flash caches, SSDs and all-solid-state systems filtering through the storage food chain, from disk mechanisms and server-based caches to standalone arrays. And just when you thought storage consolidation was here to stay, along comes a new round of DAS-based distributed storage systems that piggyback on existing virtual server farms to create a SAN pool -- without the SAN.
We'll filter these trends and more through the lens of our 2013 InformationWeek State of Storage Survey, which measures actual storage use, requirements, challenges and project plans. Although storage pros are being asked to do more with less, new technologies could be the great equalizer. (R6400213)
Survey Name InformationWeek 2013 State of Storage Survey
Survey Date November 2012
Region North America
Number of Respondents 314
Purpose To gauge the state of storage technology adoption in the enterprise

I was there at Lau Yu Fat in beginning December 2012 and don't recall seeing Cloud's stuff there. I have seen it there in Jan 2012 when I was there. I am not sure Sun Sing have Cloud's stuff, they might have it. I was there in Dec 2012 but was not looking for Cloud's stuff. It might just be there and stole a quick glimpse from me, I am not sure. Perhaps if you could email SunSing to check with them at email@example.com
Good luck with your search.

A little over a year ago Flight Service offered a new service to Alaskan pilots, allowing them to incorporate satellite tracking devices into their VFR flight plans. Named eSRS for Enhanced Special Reporting Service, pilots sign up for (or update) a Master Flight Plan to identify the satellite tracking device they use, and obtain contact information so that a distress signal will be received by FSS—along with your GPS location. (For a more complete description of the service see http://blog.aopa.org/vfr/?p=396)
While this was initially restricted to SPOT and Spidertracks devices, starting on March 10, 2014, FAA has added Delorme InReach to the list of supported devices. The InReach has some features worth noting. Its purchase price, in the $300 range, is attractive. Like the other devices in this class, the user has to subscribe to a messaging or tracking service—which ranges between $10 – $25 per month. Flight Service has already been paid for— so no added cost there. And they operate 24/7, with someone always on duty to receive a distress call. FSS already knows your aircraft type, number of people on board and other detail from your flight plan, and is poised to expedite getting help on the way during an emergency. Add to that the GPS coordinates with your location. This service could take hours off the time required to summon help, when you need it the most!
The InReach has some attractive features in addition to price. It uses the Iridium satellite constellation, which provides excellent coverage in Alaska. The unit also supports two-way texting, so in addition sending a HELP message, you may be able to communicate with rescuers to let them know exactly what assistance is needed. It is portable and can go with you outside the airplane. The only down side, from an aviation perspective, is that it lacks the automatic tracking feature used in the Spidertracks system, which automatically sends a distress in an emergency—even if the unit is destroyed in the crash. That is a powerful feature that trumps a 406 MHz ELT, from my perspective.
AOPA and the Alaska Airmen have worked closely with the FAA in support of this service. In a little over a year's time 55 pilots have signed up and, almost 1,000 flights have been conducted under the program. Hopefully more people will consider participating with the addition of the InReach unit to the program. For more details on eSRS and information on how to sign up, see: http://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/headquarters_offices/ato/service_units/systemops/fs/alaskan/alaska/esrs-ak/

When we first moved to the �burbs, I was warned by my neighbors that power outages were pretty common in our neck of the woods. I suspected that the large number of trees towering over the power lines might have had something to do with that. So, in anticipation of the next power outage or quite possibly, the zombie apocalypse, I bought enough bottled water to fill a swimming pool, six self-cooling coolers to hold all the food in the fridge, a bazillion cans of creamed corn, and batteries up the wazoo.
I had a plan for every lack-of-power scenario. But the one thing I forgot about was�
The coffee maker.
I love coffee. I love the smell of it brewing and the first taste of it when it hits my tongue. I love it strong, and dark and loaded with caffeine.
Do I have a coffee addiction? Maybe? Do I have a coffee MAKER addiction? No doubt. I have coffee makers for just about any coffee situation. I have a twelve-cup coffee maker, a ten-cup coffee maker, a four-cup coffee maker and a one-cup coffee maker. I have five different brands of automatic coffee makers, one espresso machine, and an old fashioned percolator� and those are just the coffee makers I am currently using. I also have three older coffee makers that are in semi-retirement.
Hey, some women buy shoes. I buy coffee makers.
While all of these coffee makers have various pluses and minuses, there is, of course, one problem with all of them�
They all plug in.
Therefore, even though I have ten coffee makers, when we lost power, I had no way to make coffee.
Additionally, while I am a coffee maker addict, I am also a coffee drinking snob. With an entire pantry filled with various exotic coffee beans, I do not have a spec of instant coffee. Even under the most dire circumstances, I�d rather chew whole coffee beans and swirl hot water around in my mouth than drink instant coffee.
Although my head was clouded by a lack of caffeine, I had the presence of mind to realize that the one thing I did need that I didn�t have, was a French Press.
�I cannot believe I don�t have a French Press!� I wailed to my husband when I realized that I could be coffee-less until the power came back on. �Why don�t I have a French Press?�
�I believe you said, 'With ten coffeemakers, a French Press would be over the top,'� he responded.
�Well THAT was dumb,� I retorted.
�I know,� said my husband. �Who would think that having eleven coffee makers would be so much more ridiculous that having ten!!�
I glared at him. I was in no mood to be ridiculed. I was a woman without caffeine and I was not to be reckoned with.
Fortunately, the coffee gods were smiling upon me, and the next day the power was restored. I woke up, made a huge pot of coffee and then grabbed my car keys.
�I�m outta here,� I said to my husband as I headed to the door.
�You�re going to buy a French Press aren�t you?" He asked snidely.
�No,� I said. �That would be silly�
�I�m going to buy a generator.�

Berhalter Has Two Possible Assistants Close By
The Columbus Dispatch - November 13, 2013 08:33 AM
As Gregg Berhalter works to fill out his coaching staff, two potential candidates are within arm's reach.
Mike Lapper and Frankie Hejduk are both currently on the Crew's payroll, although for different reasons and for different lengths of time. Lapper has spent the last 16 years with the organization in a number of different roles while Hejduk is in his second year as the team's brand ambassador after having played for the Crew for eight seasons.
Lapper is the last man standing from the coaching staff that opened the season. His contract expires at the end of the year, but he was on the sideline last Friday as a team of academy players and potential trialists hosted a similar squad from the Indy Eleven at the Crew's training facility in Obetz. It was a scrimmage agreed upon when Brian Bliss was still the interim coach, but afterward Lapper said there was no question that it would go on even as the coaching change was announced two days prior.
"It would be unfair for those players to just be victim to the circumstances," Lapper said afterward. "I'm going forward like I'm still part of the team until I hear otherwise. I've got to be fair. That's who I am as a person. I've got to see my job through and wherever the chips land, that's where they are. To disappoint 22 players who are trying to impress for whatever level, I thought that would be the wrong thing to do."
Tuesday afternoon as Berhalter was publicly introduced after arriving in Columbus during the weekend, Lapper was in the crowd. After Berhalter spoke of the sense of community he has already felt in his short time since being named coach and sporting director, I asked how a coach like Lapper might fit into his future plans.
"I'm going to speak to Mike and we're going to have a conversation on Thursday and see if he can have a role moving forward," he said. "What we're trying to do is put together a strong staff and we're going to be interviewing a bunch of people but he's certainly one of the people that I'm considering."
After playing for the Crew from 1997-2002, Lapper joined the club's front office and eventually became part of the coaching staff in 2005. Since then, he has worked under four coaches not including Berhalter.
Standing on the field at Obetz, Lapper said he hopes to remain with the club. It stands to reason that he has as much institutional knowledge as anyone still with the organization about the entire Crew roster.
"To steal a phrase, I hope my body of work over the last 17 years and eight on the coaching staff, hopefully he talks to the players and gets a feel for what kind of person I am and we'll go from there," he said. "I am really excited about this turning of the page. I'm looking forward to communicating with him and working with him. Obviously he's the boss and can't wait to start a new era with the Crew."
Hejduk, meanwhile, has essentially become the Crew's public face since retiring and becoming the club's newly-formed brand ambassador in April, 2012. But in addition to his jack-of-all-trades role that ranges from playing pickup soccer with Ohio State students on campus to taking photos and signing autographs at home games, Hejduk was asked to assume a key role in the coaching search.
He played with Berhalter in Los Angeles, and the new Crew coach had plenty of nice things to say about Hejduk.
"Besides the fact that he's a very good guy and he means a lot to this community, the guy's a winner and he's a competitor," he said. "I think that if we had 11 guys out on the field with his attitude, we'd be a very successful team."
So would he consider asking Hejduk to join his coaching staff?
"I would love for him to be on my staff," Berhalter said. "I'm not sure if he has that in mind, but he's a guy that certainly could play a role in any staff in MLS."
Hejduk has often stressed his happiness with his current position, but after taking in yesterday's press conference he did not entirely rule out interest in a coaching position.
"Why not?" he said. "You've heard all the praise. Now it's his turn to take it to the next level."
Perhaps he'll do so with a pair of faces familiar to Crew fans.

Many people will be taking vacations this spring and summer, often to far-off locations. For pet parents, it can be difficult to leave the cat or dog behind, and many opt to bring them along on the trip. However, it's essential to keep pet health in mind when traveling with an animal companion, particularly if the trip involves a flight.
A recent article in The Sacramento Bee offered some tips for pet owners taking trips in the near future. The news source recommends checking with the airline to ensure that there is space for a pet on board the plane.
Pet guardians should inquire about the costs and fees associated with bringing a pet along, and also ask about their available options. Most airlines allow for two animals to be on board each flight - one in the cargo hold and one in the cabin.
Putting an animal in the cargo hold also raises a number of concerns. Hot or cold temperatures can pose a serious threat to an animal's health, so pet parents may want to think twice before selecting this option.
According to PetsOnTheGo.com, pets may be more comfortable during the flight if they have a towel or blanket in their carrier. Additionally, it may be wise to take pets to a veterinarian to make sure they are in good health before embarking on a trip.

By Charlie Mitchell
OXFORD – "What in the world are we doing? We look like Mississippi."
That's what a disgusted Gov. Beverly Perdue said last May after 61 percent of voters in North Carolina cast ballots in favor of defining marriage in the state constitution as a legal bond between one man and one woman.
The comment betrayed a sanctimonious attitude, one not uncommon among those who consider themselves to be progressive.
They value humanity.
They value their understanding of equal protection of laws, of the Bill of Rights.
So what does that have to do with anything today?
As the unfolding IRS and AP scandals indicate, sometimes progressives have so thoroughly convinced themselves of the depth of their respect for civil liberties, they feel no remorse or accountability for trampling all over them.
The popular narrative is that when Richard Nixon created an "enemies list," it's because he was mean-spirited, dishonest, lacked integrity. When George W. Bush indicated he was OK with warrant-based wiretaps of international phone calls involving suspected terrorists, it's because he was slow-minded and just didn't understand people's privacy rights.
Nixon and Bush are "Mississippi" in this line of thinking. That is, not "with it" enough to be ashamed.
But when President Obama's Department of the Treasury goes after tax filings of conservatives and when his Department of Justice obtains phone records of journalists, that is seen as different. The rationalization is it's OK to violate people's rights when you have tremendous self-assurance that you are doing it for the greater good.
The end justifies the means, in other words.
Now any reader who thinks this is a condemnation of progressives or a defense of conservatives needs to think again. Not so. The point is they may approach it from different starting points, but both camps are equally adept at abusing the public trust.
As the IRS facts unfold, the basic admission is that tax officials purposely greeted exemption applications from "Tea Party" and "patriot" groups with undue skepticism. It's a bad thing for one political persuasion to be targeted more intently – and it is especially bad when the president is of the opposite persuasion. Using the regulatory powers of government or the public purse to reward friends or punish enemies is criminal.
As The Associated Press phone records facts unfold, it appears a prosecutor or prosecutors felt their old friend "national security" justified using stealth to find out who journalists were talking to, where leaks might have been. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Bad, bad, bad.
Surely the IRS and Justice Department officials who decided to pursue these tactics knew that, if caught, there would be trouble.
There will be a great hue and cry to tie President Obama directly to these unfortunate and illegal activities. That's how these things play out. Some will condemn the president as a hypocrit, a master of charades who talks about respecting the Constitution – but only when it suits him. Some will defend the president, insisting that underlings may have become a bit too zealous, but certainly the president didn't know about it and he has taken appropriate measures to make sure abuses are halted.
Where does that leave us, the citizen-spectators of such political theater?
For one thing, there should be an acute awareness that we're being played. Mississippians, especially, should recognize what's happening when the scapegoat or scapegoats are trotted out. We've been in that role many times.
For another, we should resist any temptation to cheer blindly for the administration's critics or for its defenders.
Civil liberties either belong to everyone or there's no such thing. Sometimes the abuses are attributed to a lack of appreciation for people's rights. Sometimes the abuses can be traced to self-righteousness.
The real culprit, the common denominator, is the arrogance that comes with power. To assume, as Gov. Perdue did, that enlightened folks will do right and rubes will do the opposite is an appealing perspective. But it's wrong.
Sometimes conservatives are arrogant; sometimes it's liberals. It's the responsibility of citizens to view violations of civil liberties not from the left or right – but straight on.

Shapiro let slip they needed attendance to increase 15,000 to pay for Thomes $600,000 salary. Basic math gives you $40 per person average at the game. We got 1,840,835 through the gates this year which would yield the Tribe $73,633,400. With a $49,190,566 payroll one could assume a $24,442,838 profit...without even counting the STO revenue and whatever tax money from the Bankees trickles down.
I think it's safe to assume that attendance will increase at least slightly as the club is expected to contend from day one. 2 million people get you an $80 mil payroll. 2.5 - $100 mil.
This team is in pretty good financial shape. Could be a fun offseason.

Hi, Mike -
I'm curious as to why you'd delete a post before most or any people saw it, and why you would kick someone off the forum. It appears Airdog said something offensive to do with me and that's why he was kicked off. I never saw that post, so I'm really curious as to what was said that was so offensive.
Thank you.

Are visas required for Egypt and Jordan travel [3]?
Visas are required for U.S. and Canadian citizens to enter Egypt and Jordan and are not included in the price of your Egypt travel package. If you are on the Jerusalem optional post-trip extension, note that a visa is not required for U.S. and Canadian citizens to enter Israel. U.S. and Canadian citizens will obtain an Egypt visa upon arrival at Cairo airport for a fee of $15 per person, payable on site in U.S. dollars. There are no forms or photos required. Please have exact change in U.S. dollars. Everyone must obtain an Egypt visa upon arrival.
U.S. and Canadian citizens will obtain a Jordan visa upon arrival at Aqaba airport at the end of your expedition. No forms or photos are required. According to Jordanian law only certain guests pay for the visa and those that do will pay the fee of 10 Jordanian dinars (about $15), in local currency only, upon DEPARTURE from Amman airport, after check in and prior to going through immigration. All guests get a Jordan visa upon arrival in Aqaba. Guests who depart Amman on the same flight as four or more travelers (total of five guests or more) are NOT required to pay the visa fee upon departure from Amman. Guests who depart Amman on the same flight as three or less travelers (total of four guests or less) ARE required to pay the visa fee upon departure from Amman. This is the official policy of the Jordanian government policy. Your IE Expedition Leader has all the guest departure information and will inform you if you need to pay the visa fee or not prior to your departure.
What vaccinations are required to join the IE's custom Egypt tours?
No immunizations are required for entry into Egypt, Jordan, or Israel from the US or for re-entry into the U.S. However, proof of yellow fever vaccination will be required if you are arriving Jordan from an infected area. Egypt is not an infected area. Please consult with your personal physician.
What kind of weather can you expect on your Egypt & Jordane travel package?
Egypt Climate: There are basically two seasons in Egypt: a relatively cool season that lasts from October to March and a hot season from April to September. The weather in upper Egypt (Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel.) tends to be a few to several degrees warmer than lower Egypt (Cairo). The sun can be strong, even in winter, and you can burn or dehydrate in a hurry. Wear a hat with a brim and sunscreen and limit your exposure to sunlight. A pair of sunglasses is important in reducing eyestrain.
Jordan Climate: Jordan has a combination of Mediterranean and arid desert climates. Summers are warm and dry, and winters — when the majority of visitors travel to Jordan — are mild to cool, with possibility of rain or snow. Please do not assume that because Jordan is in the Middle East, temperatures will automatically be hot. From mid-November through mid-March, Jordan — especially Petra — can be cold at times, with even the possibility of snow.
Israel Climate: Israel has varied altitudes so temperatures and rainfall are varied as well. Winter tends to be cold in Jerusalem but rainy days are often followed by bright sunny days. During the months of this expedition it is best to plan for cold weather in Israel.

Introducing Kate Nolan-Denham
Hello! My name is Kate Nolan-Denham, but I answer to Katie, Mom, and Mimi, too. I live in Maine with my dear hubby (Scott), our youngest daughter(Lily) and two dogs(Lexi & Ryder). Our oldest daughter(Kass) lives nearby with our two grandsons(Chase & Seth). We are so lucky to live in a small community that is situated only 45 minutes from the ocean and the mountains. By day, I am an Office Manager for a Speech-Language Pathology Center. I love my day job because the women I work with do great work and have huge hearts! I was encouraged to start scrapbooking by a dear friend who insisted that scrapbooking was "so me." She was right! Twelve years later my love of paper crafting has evolved to include scrapbooking, card making, stamping, altered art, and a dabbling of mixed-media. My style is clean and colorful (most of the time). I have had the honor of being on several design teams during the last few years, but I am especially excited about joining the Core'dinations team. Now I can check it off my bucket list!
Check out more awesome projects on Kate's blog HERE!
This layout is so pretty and this is my favorite paper pack yet!

Reviews for this host's other properties
Very Clean Room, very nice Hosts "Gerne wieder :)"
Absolutely great! Very welcoming, situated right in the old town in the middle of the action but with double glazed windows it was very quiet in the apartment.
Clean and tidy, and Eta's mother was so lovely and helpful. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone.
It was a very pleasent stay at Eta´s apartment. Located directly in the Old Town of Dubrovnik everything was very close. The room was very clean, the bed comfortable and there was a lot of space. Everything we needed was provided. Very nice mum!
My friend and I had a fantastic stay at Zdravko and Eta's place in Dubrovnik. I couldn't recommend staying there more - the room was perfect: clean, welcoming, quite and peaceful, well air-conditioned and in a stunning location. (With the added bonuses of a fridge, wifi, fresh towels and a kettle with tea!)
It was fantastic to be located in the heart of Dubrovnik's old town - we couldn't have asked for a better location, within walking distance of everything the city has to offer - just a stone's throw from the old port, restaurants, cafes, bars and Dubrovnik's beautiful walls. I would definitely go back, and would recommend staying here for your ideal holiday!
very friendly, very nice house
in the middle of the old city, good location,
clean, quiet (good window), air conditioning
even coffee, tea and sugar are present!
perfect location, lovely apartment. Very comfortable stay
Zdravko was a very helpful host. He gave us a map and explained all whereabouts of the city. It was a very pleasant experience meeting Zdravko.
The location cannot be better, it is just off the Main Street in old town. So, it's quiet and yet very central.
The room was big and spacious, very clean and had all facilities. Highly recommend this place.
I really enjoyed my stay the room was really nice with air cond really clean no noise at all and eta's mum was really nice and kind. We also enjoyed the wifi, the radio ( possibility to plug in a aux cable), the tv and the fridge/freezer in the room. The location was amazing right in the old town! Thank you for this wonderful time we spend in dubrovnik i would defenitly stay again in this place and recomend it to my friends and family!! Not one negative point about it 10/10!
In the old town of Dubrovnik, I had a clean room with a good shower fuktionierenden in the room. For more things to do in Old Town and beyond a very good location.
Mitten in der Altstadt von Dubrovnik hatte ich ein sauberes Zimmer mit einer gut fuktionierenden Dusche auf dem Zimmer. Für Unternehmungen in dere Altstadt und auch außerhalb ein sehr guter Standort.
Had a lovely stay at Central Room, wish it had been for longer. Nice, clean, quiet room and nice hosts.The apartment is located very close to Pile Gate, the entrance to 'Old Town' and an easy walk to everywhere. There are several stairs to climb so be aware if you don't travel lightly. Personally it was not a problem for us.

I don't even know if my brothers still have those old ones, but they were everywhere! Seeing comic books gives me some good memories. I've noticed that I'm not the only one who loves comic books, especially decoupaging with comic books. Some of the most visited projects on this site are comic book crafts! When I noticed that, I had to put together a collection of the best decoupaged comic book crafts I could find, and here it is.

Postcards no substitute for e-mail
July 29, 2008
Just a few ramblings while I wonder if I should see "The Dark Knight" for a fourth time or "Hellboy 2" for the first:
• I sent a postcard to a friend the other day, and I've come to realize there's no better thing to write than, "I'll e-mail you when I get a chance because I can write more and it won't be seen by several random mail sorters."
• You can talk about age of consent, age to marry, drinking age or voting age, but I think you become an adult the first time you go into a carnival and say to yourself, "You know, these games are much more difficult than the presentation suggests, and the prize isn't worth a fraction of what I'd spend winning it." You're never too old, however, to enjoy funnel cake or cotton candy.
• Every time I see an NFL wide receiver boast about how he can't be defended or openly discuss rifts with his quarterback and/or coach, I just wonder to myself, "How come there aren't any overconfident, media-friendly prima donna punters?"
• My favorite NFL narrative of the offseason has been, "Team X has not inquired about the possibility of acquiring Brett Favre from the Green Bay Packers, and the coach has said the team remains committed to its starting quarterback. However, the coach declined further comment on the matter, and based on that (and the remaining 15 minutes we have to fill) we believe this team is interested in Brett Favre."
• Anytime I see a post-game press conference where athletes have their toddler-age kids in their lap, I wonder — are they good parents for including their kids in everything they do, or bad parents for keeping their kids up until midnight so they can be a prop to let the media know they're family men?
• I watched David Letterman for the first time in months, and I think the existential question for that show has always been, "Why is it that No. 7 on the Top Ten List is always way funnier than the six that follow?"
• I was at a gift shop the other day and saw a board game based on "Monopoly," except with local landmarks as the board spaces. I think anybody could get a good assessment of their city of residence and themselves by creating that same board game. What landmarks of Clovis and Portales would you include? What would be the low-rent Baltic Avenue replacement, and what would sub for high-rent Boardwalk? And where on the board would your house be?
• When you and your campaign surrogates say your opponent isn't qualified to be president because he hasn't made a recent visit to Iraq, and you offer to go to Iraq with him, and your political party's Web site includes a countdown of days since your opponent last visited Iraq, isn't it kind of your fault your opponent receives media attention for visiting Iraq?
• I'm not sure what I'd pay more to see — a commercial for a diet product where the person with amazing results isn't accompanied by the fine print, "Results not typical," or a commercial where a man throws away all that should matter to him in life for decidedly average beer, and the phrase, "Please drink responsibly" does not follow it.

Topic: rjs problem (error displaying)
i'm heaving a big problem 'displaying' a select field that depends on selection of the previous select field. Now i'm stuck on the next thing. on the picture below you can see that when i select something in the first list (red outline) the second one (blue outline) is generated and shown. I just think it is shown on screen as a part of java error (2 times)??. Otherwise it works perfectly its just the text around that is bugging me ("try { new Insertion.Top..."). I know nothing about java and too little about rails rjs to fix this so i'm asking for your help.
example 1
example 2
Here is the relevant code..it is messy, because i was trying to fix this and was changing it a lot.
#_form.rhtml (part)

I would REALLY appreciate your help.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: Lovely off-road run through beautiful countryside but extremely pricey.In full: Low key, well organised event, with a lovely run through beautiful countryside. As someone who doesn't have any need for yet another running T shirt and medal, I prefer events to give their value from the run rather than unnecessary extras.I ran the Ampthill Trophy the week after, just as beautiful and probably more challenging for half the price.Date of review: October 31, 2013
In short: Good idea, but problems because not organised by runnersIn full: A really well intentioned race, with ambitious road closures and good pre-race information.I quite liked the course. In terms of an urban race, I thought it was better than the first half of London (for instance).But so much not thought through. The start was far too narrow and I hate to think what might have happened if there was a larger entry - so if it's run again with more runners that definitely needs to change.There were plenty of marshals, but little encouragement or directions given. The last mile was a lucky dip as far as directions were concerned.I thought the finish was poorly placed and the PA was a pain. A finish in say Wardown Park would surely have worked better. So, next year, a different start and a different finish and try and get more runners marshaling, or at least brief them better. Also get more people involved who have experience of organising running events.Date of review: October 31, 2013
In short: Great local raceIn full: I only did this as a sort of training run for Chester marathon. After a six mile warm up (on the most boring part of the course) I wasn't particularly looking forward to it, but the route picked up and was really enjoyable. Loved the undulations, especially the hill at 9 miles with the sting in the tail. The marshaling was outstanding. Thanks to everyone involved in the organisation which was excellent.Date of review: September 30, 2013
In short: Excellent RaceIn full: I really can't fault this race. If you are looking for a marathon to beat your PB, with reasonable support and pleasant scenery, you'd struggle to beat this. Definitely in my top 3 road marathons with Amsterdam and MK.Date of review: October 26, 2012
In short: One of the bestIn full: This was my 49th marathon and I would definitely put this in the top 5 that I've done. Flatest course you could imagine and a very scenic off-road route. There were about 300 competitors so the last half was a bit of a personal time trial, but for someone who wants a fast time and can organise for perfect weather as we had, this is the race to do. Date of review: April 30, 2012
In short: Pleasant race, but needs tweakingIn full: Many positives: Good race HQ close to the start, friendly race, reasonable course with a lot of variety, good value for money, regular and well stocked water stations, fair amount of support.There are other points needing attention. The marshaling was non existent for long periods. If someone had come along and removed an arrow the whole race could have fallen apart. There was no marshal policing the bank towards the canal, which was positively dangerous.This is not a PB course as there are too many slow sections and obstacles - adding about 10 minutes to a tarmac run.Date of review: December 20, 2011
In short: Really enjoyabloeIn full: My third time at London and I really enjoyed it. As I am training for a 100 miler I could just treat it as a training run with no pressure and enjoy the day. Once it thinned out I got into my running I did a negative split for the first time. Marathon heaven! It's a really great feeling to get stronger as the race goes on.The crowds were great and thanks to all the volunteers who did a great job.London is not a pb race unless you can go off the GFA start and I do feel sorry for those who trained hard and couldn't convert it in the race. Hopefully if that applies to you, you've got the marathon bug and will achieve your goal in a smaller event or a better big city marathon (try Dublin, Edinburgh or Amsterdam).Date of review: April 26, 2010
In short: Really well organised, mostly off road marathon.In full: This was a friendly event, which was great value and really well organised. It was a clockwise cicum-navigation of Bedford taking in some lovely scenery. The LDWA style instructions were outstanding and made for a very easy to follow race. The three checkpoints were well placed and well stocked.Thanks to the organisers for such a pleasing event.Date of review: March 21, 2010
In short: A very pleasant run and good end to the year.In full: This is a very unassuming local race, which was a pleasure to run. For the flatlands the scenery was fairly pleasant and very rural.It is a very flat course and has real PB potential. The only slope is at 8.5 km and to be frank if I hadn't been warned about it I might not have noticed it!The organisation was good and the results were posted on the (informative) website very quickly after the race. Thanks to all concerned.Date of review: January 1, 2010
In short: Just great to get out on Boxing Day for a run.In full: This a completely unpretentious race which suits runners of all abilities. It's a great opportunity to meet up with friends and fellow runners after the excesses of Christmas Day.Thanks to the organisers for making sure the race took place. The course change added a bit of challenge running back down the hill against the traffic!Thanks to all the organisers.Date of review: December 29, 2009
