The apartment is located in a very nice area, its good for 2 people (a bit small for more than 2, is more like a big "hotel room" with a kitchen, but right downstairs you can find restaurants coffee shops and many things right at your doorstep, walking distance to everywhere you need to go to discover downtown, and even the river is not far if you want to go for a run in the morning. Flexible key delivery and pickup, good communication with the host. We had a good stay, thanks Pierre.
I had a very good stay. Pierre was very helpful with finding the house in the street and getting the internet working after an update. the studio is in a very nice neighbourhood. Definitely I would stay there again.
Really nice studio in the centre. Nice, clean and cosy.
It's a nice apartment, but it is only for 1 person really comfortable. 15m² are less than we have imagined when we were booking the apartment. Nevertheless the apartment is placed in a good location and from there we could reach everything by walking.
The furnitures have a good quality and are very functional, as well comfortable.
Pierre has explained properly all the functions of the different devices in his apartment and he gave us a rough overview of interesting places in Toulouse including a map.
very cute studio with pretty furnitures and setup.
Pierre was so kind, he drove us to the train station both times, sent us a list of good restaurants. He was very helpful and nice.
The studio is located in conveninet place,
This apartment is very well furnished, centrally located and Pierre is a very nice and attentive host. It was perfectly clean and could be the ideal getaway for one or two guests. Not suitable for children or people with sleeping problems, though, as it is located in an extremely lively area.
I liked this apartment a lot it had everything you needed and was also perfect for longer stays. It was located in a peaceful and quiet area and had a beautiful view. In addition, there was two large grocery stores nearby. Plus The host Pierre was very nice and helpful.
The house is very pretty and functional and the position is excellent,very central!

According to our sources, Maybach plans to extend its range with a new coupe and convertible now that Rolls-Royce and Bentley have already beat them to both. We really, really hope that the coupe looks as menacing as the Exelero concept from a few years back. That would be awesome.
That Exelero concept looks a little overkill to me in a Detroit kind of way none the less. In fact I see some of this in it's rear end too
It looks very cool.
I agree--A coupe that looks like the Exelero would be awesome.A Maybach convertible would look great, but I'm not sure that it fits what an executive or VIP is looking for. Someone who buys a Maybach wants to ride in the lap of luxury without the public knowing who is inside, and a convertible defeats that purpose.

I'm a native New Englander, but I've lived in South Louisiana all my adult life. I don't know if that makes me THE authority on sports in Acadiana, but I've certainly seen my share. I've hosted the show "Bird's Eye View" on ESPN1420 since 1998. From 3-4 pm, your phone calls and opinions are always welcome. I also co-host "The Sports Gap" with Scott Prather, daily from 4-5pm. I'm in my 25th season on the radio broadcasts of Ragin' Cajuns football, men's basketball and baseball. My years covering the Sun Belt Conference earned me the league's "Broadcaster of the Year" award in 2009. Doing a daily radio show and traveling nearly 50 nights a year with the Cajuns doesn't leave a ton of spare time, but when I get a chance, you'll find me either in the kitchen or grilling on the back patio. I love to cook. And, while Food Network hasn't offered me a slot with my own show, I haven't poisoned anyone yet.

Amazon still has it.
I guess ill ask some of the guys older than me that got to experience the 1st two championships first hand.....how did America's Game do capturing those seasons compared to actually seeing them happen? Did it evoke emotions similarly to the 2007 Giants episode or was it just an adequate representation such as the 2011 episode?
Yeah, but I was 1 and 5 when those seasons happened so I was curious from someone that saw those seasons how good of a job they did depicting and representing those teams/seasons
Like I said, by now we all know the storylines from a dozen different sources if we lived through it. America's Game puts a new perspective of personal touch on it.

Interesting header on this article..."Then Flooded Streets make for Exciting 4th of July in Danville".
I think the more responsible thinking folks in Danville would not describe the flooding as "EXCITING" especially if their business was harmed. The author of this article should rethink the use of their adjective as related to flooding.
Sometimes I wonder where they received their journalism degree.
Thank for listening...Julia Pardini from Alamo

This information is not individual medical advice and does not substitute for the advice of your health care professional. Always ask your health care professional for complete information about this product and your specific health needs.
COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Fortamet, Glucophage XR, Glumetza
WARNING: Metformin can rarely cause a serious (sometimes fatal) condition called lactic acidosis. Stop taking metformin and get medical help right away if you develop any of the following symptoms of lactic acidosis: unusual tiredness, dizziness, severe drowsiness, chills, blue/cold skin, muscle pain, fast/difficult breathing, slow/irregular heartbeat, stomach pain with nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea.
Lactic acidosis is more likely to occur in patients who have certain medical conditions, including kidney or liver disease, recent surgery, a serious infection, conditions that may cause a low level of oxygen in the blood or poor circulation (such as congestive heart failure, recent heart attack, recent stroke), heavy alcohol use, a severe loss of body fluids (dehydration), or X-ray or scanning procedures that require an injectable iodinated contrast drug. Tell your doctor immediately if any of these conditions occur or if you notice a big change in your overall health. You may need to stop taking this medication temporarily. The elderly are also at higher risk, especially those older than 80 years who have not had kidney tests. (See also Side Effects and Precautions sections.)
USES: Metformin is used with a proper diet and exercise program and possibly with other medications to control high blood sugar. It is used in patients with type 2 diabetes. Controlling high blood sugar helps prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems. Proper control of diabetes may also lessen your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Metformin works by helping to restore your body's proper response to the insulin you naturally produce. It also decreases the amount of sugar that your liver makes and that your stomach/intestines absorb.
OTHER USES: This section contains uses of this drug that are not listed in the approved professional labeling for the drug but that may be prescribed by your health care professional. Use this drug for a condition that is listed in this section only if it has been so prescribed by your health care professional.
Metformin may be used with lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise to prevent diabetes in people who are at high risk for becoming diabetic. It is also used in women with a certain disease of the ovaries (polycystic ovarian syndrome). Metformin may make menstrual cycles more regular and increase fertility.
HOW TO USE: Read the Patient Information Leaflet if available from your pharmacist before you start taking metformin and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
Take this medication by mouth as directed by your doctor, usually once daily with the evening meal. Drink plenty of fluids while taking this medication unless otherwise directed by your doctor.
Do not crush or chew this medication. Doing so can release all of the drug at once, increasing the risk of side effects. Also, do not split the tablets unless they have a score line and your doctor or pharmacist tells you to do so. Swallow the whole or split tablet without crushing or chewing.
The dosage is based on your medical condition, kidney function, and response to treatment. Your doctor may direct you to take a low dose of this medication at first, gradually increasing your dose to lower the chance of side effects such as upset stomach. Your doctor will adjust your dose based on your blood sugar levels to find the best dose for you. Follow your doctor's directions carefully.
Take this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. Remember to use it at the same time each day.
If you are already taking another anti-diabetic drug (such as chlorpropamide), follow your doctor's directions carefully for stopping/continuing the old drug and starting metformin.
Check your blood sugar regularly as directed by your doctor. Keep track of the results, and share them with your doctor. Tell your doctor if your blood sugar measurements are too high or too low. Your dosage/treatment may need to be changed.

The political stalemate over taxes and the debt limit continues, with President Obama saying a deal needs to be reached by July 22 to give Congress time to draft and approve the appropriate legislation before the government runs out of emergency funding measures.
The Treasury Department last week reaffirmed its estimate that without an increase in the debt limit, the emergency measures would only last until Aug 2, when the government would face default.
In a press conference last week, the President said his party had agreed to substantial spending cuts but that the Republicans had refused to "move off their maximalist position" against any new tax revenues. He also advocated changing some tax policies that largely benefit wealthy individuals and certain companies.
House Speaker John Boehner replied that the Republican-controlled House would only approve an increase in the debt limit if no tax increases were involved – the issue over which Republican negotiators walked out of earlier budget talks. Boehner accused Obama of ignoring "legislative and economic reality."
The Concord Coalition and other bipartisan groups have warned that the country's fiscal and demographic challenges are so large that both spending cuts and revenue increases should be on the table.
Because of the debt limit issue, the Senate cancelled plans for a recess this week. Speculation continues over whether congressional Republicans, while opposing increases in tax rates, might agree to the elimination of some subsidies in the tax code that benefit certain corporations and individuals.
Senate Budget Committee Chairman Kent Conrad (D-N.D.) said last week that Senate Democrats had "reached an agreement" on their own budget plan and that it could be released as early as this week.

Bigger and Better
You might be wondering which programs will be included in CHST and you're not alone. There are a lot of academic degree programs that are candidates to transfer to the IHST. Faculty within those programs are currently considering whether the Institute constitutes a better fit for their program and have until December 1 to submit a proposal for transfer.
The IHST marks a "substantial transformation and commitment
by RIT to contribute to the field of health science and to our alliance with
Rochester General Health Systems." (quote from RIT Provost and Senior Vice
President for Academic Affairs, Dr. Jeremy Haefner, in an e-mail to students this morning)
Even though this new college doesn't directly affect me or my education, I still think it's
awesome! I am constantly impressed by RIT's commitment to growth and development.
Since I've been here, campus has changed so much. There are always new
buildings going up and academic programs being added.
RIT just might be the most exciting school in the country right now. It has been awesome to be here and witness all the changes in just the past three years. Imagine where we'll be in 5… 10… 50 years! If you're interested in being a part of the most innovative and ever-expanding universities in the United States, come to RIT!
Comments (3)
Christina BrooksI just got the email about this! It's really exciting! Can't wait to see what else RIT has in store in the coming years!
Sabrina Soares-KernMaybe they'll get a Pre-Pharmacy degree program and I won't have to transfer out!!!!!
Ashley HenniganRIT does have a pre-pharm program! You can register in the pre-med department. Info here: http://www.rit.edu/cos/medical/premed_studies_Progams_Pharmacy.html

I agree. The NFL is in disagreement with itself. The game was built on violence and intense physicality. If it continues changing, it won't be worth watching imo. Hardy was flat out coming after Palmer- trying to get there as quick as he could. There was no intent in his hit. It was as clean as a whistle to me. 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"i don't know how long before people around here start "flying the stars and bars"
You know what? That's not a bad idea. But then maybe not. Lots of blood shed for BOTH flags. Fuck the pinko fags . They may have upper hand right now, but they are flying that gay Obamaland flag.
I'll be damned if they wrap communism in MY Stars & Stripes.

I realized that some of the publications here in hollywoodlife, especially re Kristen's are DECEIT. why do you always published ISSUES which ARE NOT TRUE. DONT YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE DECEIVING AND CONFUSING PEOPLE. You are adding confusions and anger to the fans of Robsten in time of their distress. Why dont you PUBLISH ISSUES that may contribute to the BETTERMENT OF THE COUPLE instead of PARTING THEM AWAY FROM EACH OTHER. I hope to read more of a POSITIVE NEWS HERE!!!!

Lets be real. Reese is a friend, happily married and expecting a baby in a short time. Why wouldn't she lend a hand to Rob in this time of dissolutionment! Plenty of room on her farm and a great place for him to get back on his feet. But lets look at something no one has thought of? First, why in the HELL would a publicist for Kristen commit the biggest case of destruction of an actors reputation??? His or her own employer, Kristen Stewart. Who in their right mind would allow an apology that should have been so private between just the two of them rather than telling the world because of photos being leaked???? Something else; Rob nor Kristen publicize nothing, (or at least try not to) about their relationship. They live under the radar. It seems like such a set up to ruin not only a couple we'd all like to think loved one another since Twilight began, lived together and remained 'almost' mum about their relatiobship. Who would most gain any satisfaction of 'creating' this 'scandal' With' photos to prove it. Nothing over the past 4 weeks makes sense. The final movie of the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn 2, rests on the fans who have waited so long, read all the books, (several times), purchased the DVD's and watched over and over again, to finally see the couple we've grown to love, because they were a couple off screen, (or so all the gossip columns tell us) and we believed it.
Does anyone else think that there is something else going on besides the separation (for a while, I hope), of Rob and Kristen? I hope someone with love for the two of them can get them together, in a place where no one will have a camera, they'll be alone with each other, to talk things out, get mad, cry a lot, grovel, if necessary, and start all over again.

We're planning to block book some bedrooms for players in the British Open in one of the Durham colleges close to the venue.
The rooms will be bed and breakfast for the Friday and Saturday nights, and will cost £55pp (standard) / £70pp (ensuite) for the entire weekend.
Other accommodation will be available, but if you would like to make use of this block booking you'll need to let me know by email by the end of Sunday 11th March (sorry about the tight deadline), including whether you want ensuite.
(The club will be out of pocket if rooms are booked but not paid for, so please make sure you can come before putting yourself down!)

Fact Checker: Candidate-approved attack ads in Rehberg and Tester race
BOZEMAN, Mont. - We're just under three weeks from Election Day, and if it's possible, the fight for one of Montana's U.S. Senate seats is getting uglier.
Up until now, I've looked at third-party attack ads, but this week I combed through ads approved by the candidates themselves. The first strikes out at Republican challenger, Denny Rehberg; the second goes after Democratic incumbent, Senator Jon Tester.
"Then Jon Tester came along and wanted to bring back logging jobs," a Libby, Montana, resident says in the first ad. "He brought people together, worked with all sides, and got a compromise. That's the Montana way. His Forest, Jobs and Recreation act would have been a real boost for our economy."
It's true that Senator Jon Tester drafted a land bill that some, but not all, environmentalists and loggers support as a fair compromise. It would designate more than 650,000 acres as protected wilderness and require logging activity on 100,000 acres.
"Congressman Dennis Rehberg killed it," the ad continues. "He put politics ahead of jobs."
It's true that Congressman Denny Rehberg fought against the Forest, Jobs and Recreation Act. At the end of last year, Tester attached it to the 2012 Senate budget deal. But Rehberg openly worked to get it out of the House version, saying it doesn't go far enough to create Montana jobs.
Montanans for Rehberg are running an ad approved by the candidate, attacking Tester.
"Talk is cheap, but Jon Tester's actions are costly," it says. "'Now the Bull Mountain Mine I support,' [Tester said]. But Tester voted against Bull Mountain, and the jobs it created."
It's not true that Tester explicitly voted against Bull Mountain, but it is true that he voted against a 2001 state bill allowing a revoked mine permit to be transferred to a new operator. The Billings Gazette reported that year that the bill opened the door for the Bull Mountain mine to reopen.
"'And we have tremendous opportunity on the coal we sit on,' [Tester said]. But Tester voted for obama's regulations that are forcing a Billings company to mothball its coal-fired power plant threatening jobs."
It's true that earlier this year, two Republican senators moved to override mercury emission regulations from the Environmental Protection Agency. Tester voted not to throw out the rules.
It's also true that last month, PPL Montana announced it will shut down operations at a Billings plant, citing the EPA standards.

Brian Hayes
Last January, when America Online announced its plan to absorb the Time Warner media empire, The New York Times quoted one marveling observer as follows: "The nerds have won. This deal really validates the Internet." The comment left me thoroughly puzzled, because my own first reaction to the merger agreement had been exactly the opposite. For me the news inspired no visions of teeshirted nerds marching triumphantly through Hollywood or liberating Madison Avenue from the tyranny of suits; the nerds I imagined were gnashing their teeth at the prospect of more commercial clutter on the Web and more "portals" to the Internet that open only at the command of proprietary software. What the merger seemed to validate was the idea of the Net as virtual movie theater and shopping mall, which is not a notably nerdish vision.
Of course it all comes down to the question of who's a nerd. The commentator quoted by the Times was David Readerman, a San Francisco investment banker. From his point of view, the managers of America Online may well appear to be hard-core nerds. Compared with their counterparts at Time Warner, perhaps they are. America Online represents the "new media"—meaning the Internet and all its accoutrements—whereas Time Warner is (or was) a bastion of "old media"—television, film, ink-and-paper publishing.
From another point of view, however, America Online is the very antithesis of nerdishness. Veterans of the "real" Internet reserve their most withering contempt for America Online newbies, who are assumed to be technically inept as well as ignorant of all the customs and lore of the Net. In certain forums, an aol.com address brands you a "hopeless luser." (I am doubtless guilty of such snobbery myself, although I must also state for the record that I have an AOL account.) Given the company's online reputation as the last refuge of the clueless, it seems bizarre to send America Online marching forth as the standard-bearer of the nerds. When the merger plan was reported at the Slashdot Web site (whose slogan is "News for nerds"), there was certainly no victory celebration.
The rhetoric of warfare between nerds and suits can get comically overblown, as if this were some cosmic struggle between the defenders of civilization and the barbarian hordes (it's never clear which is which). In fact, if the conflict exists at all, the outcome will surely not be conquest by either side but cultural assimilation of both. America Online and the hundreds of other glittering new dot-com companies are not decimating the nerds; they're enriching them. At the same time, the influx of grad students with stock options has got to alter corporate culture. But whether the mechanism of change is war or intermarriage, the effect on the Internet is equally profound. Hence this seems to be a good occasion for reflecting on where computer networks have come from and where they might be taking us. Does the future of the Internet lie in mass entertainment and marketing, or can it also remain a medium for scholarly and scientific exchange? Is there life beyond the com domain?

An online service allows faculty, staff and students to register for and purchase their parking permits quickly and conveniently.
All Part-time and Adjunct Faculty with an active teaching contract, are eligible for parking. Part-time/Adjunct faculty may park, only on the days and times they are teaching, in one of the designated Adjunct faculty spaces located in Lot B between 7:00 AM - 3:30 PM and in all vacant spaces after 3:30 PM. Part-time faculty may park behind University Hall in Lot J after 3:30 PM and (if available) after 3:15 PM in one of the Lesley spaces across Massachusetts Avenue from University Hall in Lot K.
To register for and purchase your parking permit go to the web site developed for the University, the Permit Store.
Adjunct parking permits must be purchased on a semester basis. You may pay either by credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or Discover) or by electronic check, and the full amount of the semester permit will be charged at the time of the transaction. All transactions are encrypted and secure and applicant information is kept strictly confidential.
As part of the registration process, you will be asked for your mailing address, vehicle make, year and license number, permit type, and payment information.
Once you have completed the registration process, a parking permit will arrive in the mail within 7 - 10 days. Please note that the address you select on the Permit Store will be the address that you supply, not necessarily the "address of record" by the University. In order to confirm the receipt of your permit, you must return to the Permit Store for activation.

This weekend will surely be an odd time for the Holden faithful, and the fanatical for that matter.
The next generation of the Commodore, the VF, will be unveiled for the first time, calling a halt to the "inside information" of the rumour mill and other wild guesstimations.
What we do know is that Commodore as a large vehicle isn't going to be here for long. New Zealand and Australia mightn't be totally over the big-car mentality (although very close to it), but even those who won't give up the giant saloon know that the writing's on the wall.
It's not only Commodore, the Falcon's staring at a firing squad as well. With small cars making far more power than they used to, and diesels not being the smelly and rowdy machines of old, there are alternatives. Many of us are just trying to figure out which of these alternatives we like.
The large-car segment has been losing traction for years, and you have to wonder how much of the viability equation was based around sentimentality or plain old stubbornness.
It's doubtful that if either the Ford or GM version was a new-ish, fledgling nameplate, they would have gone the distance that they have.
What is it that makes us prefer a particular type of car? I'm not just talking about buying, that's often just a case of necessity. Some vehicles aren't designed to be loved, but there are still people who devote half of their lives to fawning over them.
Take the Trekka that Phil Hanson wrote about recently - it's pure sentimentality that has kept the handful of those that have survived in existence. So what will become of these Fords and Holdens when the market just says no? What will happen to Bathurst, the holiest of all weekends? The replacement for a Commie or Falcon could be a hybrid or electric - you just don't know what the next generation will like, but time, I guess will tell.

Did you miss the comment about copy elision? The compiler is allowed to optimize away the temporary, even if there are side effects. It doesn't have to, but it may (and most probably will). Some compilers may, and some may not. Some may with certain optimization settings, some may not. But it's important to remember that you may be constructing two MyStructs (the temporary, and the one you want) because, depending on what MyStruct is and what its constructor/destructor does, there may be side effects. It's another one of these "Betcha didn't see that coming, now did ya?!" that C++ can throw at you, because you test it a thousand times on a compiler/platform, and it works a specific way, and then you test the same code on another compiler/platform and it does something a little different.
Ok when i saw that code i thought hmm pretty clear it should be the int constructor since the object doesn'exist yet....then i saw your explanation and i shrug...really? then i tried it just to be sure....first instinct was right your "spoiler" is wrong
If you don't believe me that both the int constructor and copy constructor are used in that code, try this:
class MyClass { private: MyClass(const MyClass&) {} // It shouldn't need this, right? public: MyClass() {} MyClass(int i) {} MyClass& operator = (int) { return *this; } }; MyClass s = 5;As expected, compilation fails. So now we see that the copy constructor is indeed needed and used. But what happens if we run this code:
#include <iostream> class MyClass { public: MyClass() { std::cout << "MyClass()" << std::endl; } MyClass(int) { std::cout << "MyClass(int)" << std::endl; } MyClass(const MyClass&) { std::cout << "MyClass(const MyClass&)" << std::endl; } MyClass& operator = (int) { std::cout << "MyClass& operator = (int)" << std::endl; return *this; } }; int main() { MyClass s = 5; }
It's a big WTF if you ask me. The copy constructor is required for it to compile (because it's technically required to do MyClass s(MyClass(5))), but it's never even called in the final code! Classic example of copy elision.
@Grafalgar: My posts show one example of exactly what you're looking for. Beginners are taught early on about constructors, but this little detail can potentially be a big pain in the butt that they don't learn until years later.

Brian Hayes
In general, the system of differential equations describing the behavior of the atmosphere cannot be solved exactly. Bjerknes advocated a graphical method of finding approximate solutions, but Richardson favored numerical techniques. Specifically, he adopted a finite-difference method, replacing continuously varying fields with changes calculated over discrete intervals. For example, consider the calculation of the winds in a given M cell. In the discrete model the change in the east-west component of the wind depends on the difference between the pressures in the P cells to the east and the west; in the same way the north-south component is calculated from the difference in pressure values to the north and south.
Boundary conditions present an annoying complication. If the winds in an M cell depend on the four surrounding P cells, what happens at the edge of the array, where some of the P cells do not exist? The ideal solution would be to cover the entire globe, so there are no edges, but that option was beyond Richardson's reach. Instead he ducked the question by making his prediction only for two squares (one M cell and one P cell) in the middle of his diamond-shaped array. Thus he made use of the initial values in the boundary cells but did not try to calculate new values there.
Time as well as space is discrete in Richardson's scheme. He chose a basic time unit of Δt=3 hours. He also employed a "leapfrog" method of numerical integration, where events at time t+1 depend on the state of the system both at the present time t and at the previous moment t–1. But the leapfrog process hardly got started in Richardson's calculation. He carried out only a single step of the integration, computing the "initial tendencies"—the rates of change in pressure, momentum, etc.—and used these tendencies to compute the changes in the weather over a period of 2Δt, or six hours, centered on 7 a.m.
Here are the results, as Richardson reported them in his book Weather Prediction by Numerical Process. In the central M cell, which covered the area surrounding Nurenberg and Weimar, the surface wind freshened somewhat over the six hours of the forecast, while the stratospheric winds increased more than tenfold. An even more dramatic change was seen in the P cell to the south, over Munich. According to the model, barometric pressure in the lowest stratum rose by 145 millibars to 1,108 millibars. If this surface pressure had been correct, it would have been a world record; the actual barometric reading was nearly steady on that day.

David Brenner says, "Even if you can't spell Karen Rontowski, you'd
better remember it, because she is GREAT!"
Ms. Rontowski describes herself as having an optimistic outlook;
everything is coming up roses when you talk to Karen. So what if her
therapist says she's in complete denial. The truth is, when it comes to
her standup comedy career, everything is coming up roses, or at least
Comedian Karen Rontowski's upbeat, optimistic and clean sense of
humor has earned her headlining spots all over the world. She has also
opened for such show biz legends as Bob Hope, Ray Charles and the
Monkees. Often described as a "New Age Hippie" Rontowski says
"there is no time like the present to be living in the past."
Karen's real touring trips (not the ones in her head) include 45 of the 50
states, Canada, Japan, Greenland and all over Europe. She has also
entertained the troops with tales of her Polish father who once put a
drawbridge on their house… actually he just installed the garage door
upside down. But that's Karen…. always accentuating the positive..
A television favorite, you may have seen this hilarious woman on
Comedy Central, Live at Gotham and Comics Unleashed. A regular on
the Bob and Tom Radio Show, Karen keeps listeners laughing not only
with her standup, but also when she talks about her other career as a
paranormal investigator.
Recently seen performing in the encore production of David Brenner's
"What's so funny?" and the TBS Comedy Festival, Karen just completed
the television pilot, Karen's Supernatural Junkyard, in which she spear-
heads hilarious adventures into supernatural investigations. Just ask
her about her ghost orbs! "I am not afraid of ghosts, they're just people
who don't know their dead yet. Like Dick Cheney."

Most of the iPhone cases I receive are intended to offer a combination of protection and style. Adequate protection to minimize damage if the iPhone is inadvertently dropped, while minimizing bulk so the device still retains some of it stylish sleekness. The more effective ones tend to be higher priced, often $50 and up.
The latest review unit to arrive at my door throws most of these conventions out the door. The M-Edge SuperShell is molded from closed-cell foam and available in three brilliant colors (plus basic black). The case bulges around the corners and has all sorts of dimples and ridges to provide a better grip. It weighs less than an ounce — it is all foam, after all — but significantly increases the physical size of your smartphone. The major ports and buttons are accessible, but forget about docking on most devices. So why would you encase your iPhone in this rather whimsical looking case? Three reasons:
- It offers better impact protection than most cases.
- It does so at an affordable ($29.99) price.
- The bright colors and squishy, grippy material make it a potential choice for kids.

Before I get any bees, I am trying to learn as much as I can. I really like the idea of treatment-free bees, but am not sure whether I ought to start that way or not. Undecided.
I was just wondering if as many people as possible could tell the reasons why they use this method. I am guessing for many people the idea is to have purer honey with less possibility of contamination by harmful chemicals. Maybe others just love a challenge. But tell me, if you don't mind, what your personal reasons are?


text: Gosh, some of you just can't get positive and reasonable. You just can't waste any opportunity to put a negative slant on her personality, can you? Yu-Na is a reasonable, down-to-earth person just like any of us, maybe except you. If I bother to go into details, she will be accompanied by two of her fellow Korean skaters including Jin-Seo Kim (who's also participating in the event), an international judge representing KSF at the event, some officials, her manager, and the coaches of the athletes including two of hers. And FYI she does her own makeup and hairdo. Lighten up, and enjoy her return. Like many of us here.

Re: Australian Classics
I am just thinking...
Australia is 'multiculteral' so you can choose many cuisines from all over the world in our cities. It is the best!
things that may be quitissentially 'australian'?
Deep fried Mars Bars
Beer - VB vs XXXX vs Toohey's. Gotta be cold
the beach
and a picnic - but maybe too much sand filled so you just buy fish and chips across the road.
for the more refined.... grazing through the wineries in the different states... Vic - Yarra Valley and Rutherglen, SA - Barossa, southern vales, Clare, Coonawarra, Perth - Margaret River, NSW - Hunter Valley, QLD - near stanthorpe ( I think)... just to name a few
If you want to get 'real' australian - Bush tucker
lots of salads... to go with the BBQ meat/fish
this list could become endless.....
hope this can be a start for you... and many can add heaps more.

Re: Australian Classics
I forgot Lamingtons.... how could I?
if you are coming to Brisbane you will love the alfresco dining culture we have here.....
Some areas to explore....
Wilston Rd, Wilston
Park Road, Milton
Living Northside, these are the precints we mostly frequent...
Maybe if you dine in some of these precints, it may give you an idea about what you like and what you would like to replicate at home. I don't know that we have an 'australian' cuisine'. Because we are so multiculteral, we tend to eat very widely with lots of tastes being influenced by our neighbours. Of course, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese and Indonesian tend to be the most popular. There are a few restaurants that are european in nature...italian mostly..... french..... Lebonese is another cuisine that is up and coming... a lot of people like Japanese....
At home in a VERY general sense we tend to be very european in our cooking.... roasts, BBQ's- especially in QLD because of the weather, Casseroles, we cook lots of stir frys and pasta - spag bol and lasagne. Thai curries also are very easy to replicate at home and so easy to cook. It also depends on what part of the world you hail from as well and how your tastes are influenced.
Good luck with your move and welcome to the land down under....

We've had a fabulous stay at the Rainbow Hermitage and were very good taken care of by the lovely Eric and Alessandro. The location of the house is in a very peaceful neighboorhood with an exquisite Italian restaurant (Domenico) just around the corner. Bathroom and bedroom were very clean and comfortable and the full Scottish breakfast was delightful. An absolute recommendation!!
If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to book here, do it! It's just a special place. The bed was great which is something I really appreciate. The hope is marvelously decorated and the cleanliness is impeccable. Location is just a short walk to Lieth, which we loved.
We had only a couple of hours in Edinburgh and would like to see more of this city and we were so lucky to find such a great B&B. The house is really wonderful and we felt immediately comfortable in our room.
Eric was very kind and helpful. He celebrated us a very delicious breakfast in the morning. We highly recommend this accommodation and would like to stay there again.
Before our small travel party went over to Edinburgh we got an excelent description how to reach the apartment. Our hosts were very likable. The apartments are cozy. And the service was pretty much excellent. We enjoyed our stay very much.
Thanks a lot!!!
We stayed 3 Nights by Eric and it was fantastic. Friendly welcome, clean rooms and a perfect Breakfast for a good start in the day. Car parking in front of the house for free and bus stop just a few steps away. Every time again and thank you.
Nice and kind house holders, very pleasant to every request. The room was very good looking, and the best was one of the best I ve ever slept. The breakfast was delicious and massive. I d definitely sugggest this place.
My wife and I stayed here for one evening. Eric is very welcoming and happy to assist you with during your stay. It is a lovely home with lots of attention to detail. The room is a good size with all the necessary requirements. The breakfast was more than enough, freshly prepared with lots of options. There is ample parking outside the property, transport into the centre of Edinburgh couldn't be easier. There is a bus stop yards away from the front door, the buses are frequent and run late into the night. We would definitely recommend, and stay again next time we are in Edinburgh. Thanks Eric we has a pleasant stay.
My friends and I had a real pleasant stay and felt very welcome. The rooms were clean and tastefully furnished and the breakfast was gorgeous! There's nothing more to say, it was simply great! Thank you!
We stayed 4 nights at this B&B. There are 2 separate rooms and one bathroom we shared together. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the bathroon modern. The breakfast Eric prepared fresh every morning was really excellent, a real Scottish breakfast, and for me I enjoyed the haggis! Eric and Alessandro are very friendly and helpful. They gave us a lot of support.
The City of Edinburgh is easy to reach by bus route 25. In the night the 25N doesn't run there so it might be the best to choose bus 22N.
So we three enjoyed the stay at Rainbow B&B very much, it is really an excellent accomodation with very friendly hosts and again an excellent breakfast." Bravo Zulu" as in the navy is said. We are absolute sure to book the same accomodation again during our next Edinburgh trip.
Mathias and Kristina and Frauke
absolutely nice place to be, very friendly. a first class breakfast for everyone, and very clean and comfortable. Close to the City. Bernd

These leap years all have a 29th day in February. Years at the turn of the century that leave a remainder when divided by 400 – the next ones are 2100, 2200 and 2300 – are not leap years. In cases like these, calendars with an analogue display will need to be advanced by 1 day on 1 March by a watchmaker. Calendars with a digital display can be adjusted by the owner. The perpetual calendar's century slide with an analogue display turns each new century into a major event. The current century slide bears the numbers 20, 21 and 22 and will thus come to the end of its service life on 31 December 2299; but even now, IWC supplies the century slide bearing the figures 22, 23 and 24 for the years 2200 to 2499.

Reviews of this property
The apartment is very well located. But it is very small with some difficult stairs to climb. No kitchen. The bathroom is small and not very clean . The room has a low ceiling and with little space . I think improvements need to be rented . Compared to others we have rented is lower . Its owner is very friendly but this is not enough
Small room in the loft, after a rough stairway ...
Cleanliness is poor .... Bathroom and toilet "all in one" given the small size of this space ...
More: possibility to use the kitchen.
Small roof terrace with views of the street where the tram goes 28! Nice and picturesque area.
Friendly welcome on arrival.
Petite chambre en soupente, après un rude escalier...
Propreté laisse à désirer.... Salle de bain et wc "tout en un" vu la taille réduite de cet espace...
Un plus:possibilité d'utiliser la cuisine.
Petite terrasse sur les toits avec vue sur la rue où passe le tram 28 ! Quartier sympa et pittoresque.
Accueil sympathique à l'arrivée.
We spent one week at this place and felt quite comfortable, especially because of the rooftop terrace. The bedroom was quite small, but it was a good and quiet retreat from the city. If you dry the floor of the bathroom each time after showering, you will feel comfortable, only the water came sometimes hot and sometimes cold. Moreover, I used the fridge and the kitchen and that was a great option for me (supermarkets only 50m away). Also, I had lots of fun with Natasa, the host, we went out and had nice talks, and she always was helpful when anything was missing. As for location, one can walk into town in about half an hour through Alfama, at night should use the taxi for about 5€. All in all, we had a wonderful week at Natasa's place and would certainly come back.
If you want, you should not go here a deluxe room. Room very basic. Only room for a 2 bed and small closet. Toilet only be reached through the shower move past it. There was often a sewer drain. However, a living room at your disposal that you share with the other tenants. In the summer the room very hot because I think there is only one skylight. To us did because we had only slept there. About 20 min walk to Alfama.
Als je een luxe kamer wil moet je niet hier heen gaan. Kamer zeer basic. Alleen ruimte voor een 2 persoons bed en kleine kast. Toilet alleen te bereiken door over de douchebak heen te stappen. Er hing hier vaak een rioollucht. Wel een woonkamer tot je beschikking die je deelt met de andere huurders. In de zomer wordt de kamer denk ik heel warm omdat er maar 1 dakraam is. Voor ons voldeed het omdat we er alleen maar hadden geslapen. Ongeveer 20 min lopen naar Alfama.
Great location to visit the city. In the heart of a neighborhood where you can pick healthy aspects of local life. Perfect for those who like privacy, if he had some imperfections would be more expensive. Natasa is discreet, helpful and polite and the house you eat well and great price. Happy holidays in Portugal,

Leider waren wir im vorhinein nicht darüber informiert, dass wir nicht die einzigen Gäste im Appartment waren.
Nice home in a nice neighborhood.
Agréable accueil dans un quartier sympathique.
Nice location, right in the old center. Breakfast you for a few dollars in the street where the apartment is located. Sanitary facility we found moderate.
Leuke lokatie, midden in het oude centrum. Ontbijten kun je voor een paar euro in de straat waaraan het appartement is gelegen. Sanitaire voorziening vonden wij matig.
Nice clean appartment with balcony. Great location in the heart of the old city with a tramstop nearby.
Very good pied a terre for visiting Lisbon on foot (ca climbs!) Lappartememt is functional, and the terrace is very pleasant. The living room and kitchen to share but overall it's very good.

Tomorrow we will head to Briar Island for some whale watching
The whale watching on Briar Island was amazing. We saw a bunch of humpback whales that were surfacing within meters from the boat. The staff were knowledgeable and provided a lot of information. They could even tell the individual whales apart, by name, by their tails. We passed two pods of dolphins and saw a number of seals. All this can be yours for less money than it cost in Lunenburg.....and you get whales, here!! Even the tour operator was not surprised by our Lunenburg adventure. The company we went with was called Briars Island Whale and Seabird Cruises. The biggest trick is to leave real early from Digby because if you don't time the ferries right you'll end up missing your tour. Aim to get there about an hour earlier than your departure time. The first ferry leaves to Long Island on the half-hour, and the one leaving to Briar Island leaves on the hour. If you make the first one, you have to drive like Hell all the way across the island to make the other ferry on time. If you miss it, you will have to wait an hour before you can cross again. Oh, and dress warm....real warm. It was cold on the water.
The whales were impressive. They were surfacing very close to the boat and we followed them for so long that there was no point in taking tones of pictures of their backs and blowholes, so you just had to wait a little bit and there they showed us the classic tail-out-of-water. So far, this was one of the best things of the trip.
Tonight will be another dinner at the nice Fundy Complex restaurant. Tomorrow, well, we'll have to drop by Sobey's before the long trek to Cape Breton, Ingonish.

Where I stayed
Our apartment!
Just a quickie tonight to say we're here! It's currently 1.33am and unsurprisingly we're both exhausted.
We arrived in Helsinki at 1pm (Fin time) and stepped into our lovely little apartment at about 3.30pm. We've already found our local supermarket (K Market = Tesco Express, only more expensive) and have stocked up on Rice Krispies and Moomin biscuits (which don't contain actual Moomins you'll be pleased to hear!).
Somewhere around 5.30pm we stumbled on the Olympic Stadium. It's not hard to find, we were just stumbling by this point.
The Denmark fans made a noisy and impressive entrance (showing up their team a little bit!) with their well-rehearsed drumming group. For a brief moment a small part of me wished I was Danish
The opening ceremony was short and sweet, and the first half was nothing special. The second half was a marked improvement with Finland showing Denmark how football should be played. They won 1-0.
Mike joined us on our stroll back to the centre to find some food. Don't ask what it was, we really don't know, but it filled a hole! And now we're back in the apartment (more on that tomorrow!) trying to gather strength to go to bed.
Oh, bumped into Pav and Hope after the match - it felt like China all over again!
Bed calls, speak tomorrow.
Big love
ps sorry for the rambles, brain is a bit mushy!

RE: st: spatial weighting matrix
"Nick Cox" <firstname.lastname@example.com>
RE: st: spatial weighting matrix
Wed, 8 Apr 2009 18:56:41 +0100
I think that's all correct, but one extra detail may bite. For example,
a common size of problem is all 3000 or so counties in the USA. For
coding contiguities for that, you really need to have or to mimic sparse
matrix routines.
Kyle Hood
Thanks for the explanation of queen - I do recall that chess references
are used, now; I guess I had forgotten since I have never based a weight
matrix on contiguity.
I am a little confused about what the asker wants from Stata, here. He
says he has addresses (points), but wants a weighting matrix that
depends on contiguity, which only makes sense for areal data. If these
addresses contain the areas in question (for example, zip codes or
states) then no geocoding is necessary -- one must simply extract the
areas from the address data. However, after that, the information
concerning which areas are adjacent to others is needed. I can't
imagine that Stata can be used to obtain this information. If the asker
has this information already, then it would of course be trivial to
program the weighting matrix in Stata (using Mata or not).
If the addresses do not contain the areas in question (for example, the
asker wishes to consider adjacent census tracts, but has street address
data), then the address information will have to be geocoded. The
geocoded data must then be matched up with a map of census tracts based
on location. In addition, information on which census tracts were
adjacent would be needed, and this presents the same problem as above.
Some of this can be done in Stata, but there are pieces that other
software is better suited to deal with.

Nette Vermieterin, ruhige Wohnung!
Beautiful apartment in / near the center of Hanover. Everything is within walking distance. Supermarkets, shopping center (shopping area).
In the apartment everything looks neat and tidy. There is a large bed and a nice bathroom.
Mooi appartement in/vlakbij het centrum van Hannover. Alles is op loopafstand. Supermarkten, stadscentrum (winkelgebied).
In het appartement ziet alles er netjes en verzorgd uit. Er is een ruim bed en een fijne badkamer.
Vi mødte desværre ikke Dorothee, men hun virker som en meget venlig person.
Vi fik mange gode informationer om byen, spisesteder, modtagelse osv. pr mail.
Smuk og dejlig lejlighed, hvor alt bare fungerede ( vi var så heldige at parkere lige uden for døren).. Beliggenheden er også bare perfekt; en dejlig grøn by.
Stedet er absolut anbefalesværdig
Med venlig hilsen

Reviews for this host's other properties
This apartment is an absolute gem. Clean, neat, light filled, with comfortable beds and everything at your doorstep. Dorothee was excellent from the start and always responded quickly to emails and questions, even with the Australia/ Germany time difference.
Our check in was smooth as the lady with the key lives in the building. She was very helpful as well.
Just a few steps away is the U-bahn that is two stops from the Hauptbahnhof. The beautiful Neues Rathaus is almost in the back yard and there is excellent shopping in Kröpke. There is also a nice Italian place just across the road.
At the end of the day it was a delight to return to this apartment and relax. I really could not fault this experience at all.
A really beautiful and nicely furnished apartment. Was a very pleasant stay. When it comes back to Hanover, again in this apartment!
Eine wirklich schöne und hübsch eingerichtete Wohnung. War ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt. Wenn es wieder nach Hannover geht, wieder in diese Wohnung!
Despite its very central location (town hall, Maschsee and plenty of shopping opportunities in the Hildesheimer Str. Are within walking distance), this
Apartment very quiet! Comfortable rooms, elegant bathroom and modern, fully equipped kitchen. The care during my stay (ask by email) was great. Should I again be in Hannover - again.
Many Thanks
Trotz der sehr zentralen Lage (Rathaus, Maschsee und jede Menge Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Hildesheimer Str. sind fußläufig zu erreichen) ist diese

The New Zealand dollar fell by more than half a US cent today after Statistics NZ (SNZ) labour data showed that the employment rate fell to its lowest point in 10 years in the December quarter.
Unemployment fell to 6.9 per cent in the quarter, down from 7.3 per cent in the September quarter.
The drop in the unemployment rate was entirely due to the largest ever quarterly decline in the participation rate - to 67.2 per cent from 68.4 per cent - meaning a large number of people left the labour force over the quarter.
SNZ said the employment rate fell by 0.8 percentage points to 62.6 per cent over the December quarter. It was the third consecutive fall in the employment rate, after employment had been relatively unchanged for about two years.
Westpac economists said SNZ's Household Labour Force Survey (HLFS) had come up with an "oddball assessment" of the labour market.
"The net result was negative market reaction, but we are sceptical of the survey results," Westpac said in a commentary.
The New Zealand dollar dropped by 60 basis points to US84.43c from US83.83c just after the release.
"Our assessment of the labour market has not really changed - it is still weak, but we do not believe that it has suddenly gotten sharply better or worse," Westpac economists said in a commentary.
The HLFS showed there was a 6 per cent decline in part-time work over the quarter, which caused a decline in overall employment.
"The labour market is still weak, but we do not believe that it has suddenly gotten sharply better or sharply worse," Westpac said.
ASB Bank chief economist Nick Tuffley said the survey results can be volatile, but showed that the labour markets of the Auckland and Canterbury had improved while the rest of the country had gone backwards.
The reported weakness in employment would reinforce the view that interest rates would remain on hold for a while further, Tuffley said.
ASB expects the Reserve Bank's official cash rate to remain on hold until March next year.
The unemployment rate fell 0.4 of a percentage point to 6.9 per cent in the December quarter, as the number of people leaving the workforce fell faster than the number of jobs available, according to the household labour force survey. Economists were picking a headline rate of 7.1 per cent in a Reuters survey.
The participation rate fell a record 1.2 percentage points to 67.2 per cent, the lowest level since September 2004, while employment shrank 1 per cent. Economists were expecting a participation rate of 68.5 per cent and quarterly jobs growth of 0.4 per cent. The number of people not in the labour force climbed 3.8 per cent in the quarter.
The figures come after the quarterly employment survey showed a pick-up in total filled jobs, and the Treasury this week said it expects the labour market to show gradual signs of improvement as the Canterbury rebuild gathers momentum.
Full-time employment grew 0.4 per cent to 1.71 million in the quarter, while the number of part-time jobs plunged 6 per cent to 486,000. Total jobs were down an annual 1.4 per cent, while unemployment was up 6.8 per cent from a year earlier. Actual hours worked declined 0.1 per cent to 73. 14 million hours, and was down an annual 1 per cent.
The annual decline in jobs was led by a 19 per cent plunge in self-employment, which has been falling from a peak in December 2011.
Otago had the lowest unemployment rate across the regions at 4.3 per cent, with Southland at 4.6 per cent and Canterbury at 4.9 per cent. Northland had the highest rate at 9.5 per cent. Auckland's unemployment rate improved to 7.2 per cent, while Wellington's rose to 7.9 per cent.
Youth aged 15 to 24 not in employment, education or training (NEET), a target demographic for the government, rose to 14.2 per cent, the highest level since March 2011, though coming at the end of calendar year when programmes typically end.
The number of jobless people fell to 284,500 from 294,900 a quarter earlier, and was up from 261,300 at the end of 2011. The number of people discouraged from seeking working because they believe they lack the appropriate skills rose 2,400 to 10,100 in the three month period.
Underemployment, which counts those people in part-time work wanting more hours, fell to 111,000 from 113,300 in the quarter, and was up from 105,100 a year earlier.
New Zealand's unemployment rate is now the 14th lowest among developed nations, below Canada's 7.2 per cent and above Israel's 6.7 per cent.

Have you formed any sort of relationship with the city of Boston on your visits over the years? Seems like there's plenty of history, literary and otherwise, that you might have appreciated. I have no interest in Boston's history. Just get me to a bar with an Internet jukebox. I'm not Richard the Third. But, in fact, all of my time in Boston has been terrific. Fifty years ago, I did a signing at the old Tower Records for the album Vauxhall and I. We were five blocks away from the store and already we were passing the queue. I couldn't believe it. I said, "Those people are queuing for me?" I started crying. I expected 22 people at most.
What are you reading now, and how do you read it? Meaning, have you been converted to e-readers yet or do you think they're sacrilege? I'm incapable of reading anything without a pen in my hand. I underline words I don't understand, or passages I don't want to forget. Half the joy of reading is massaging the book in your hands. It will take me years to lose that. I'm presently reading Bristol Palin's autobiography because . . . no, sorry, that was a joke . . . as is she.
Do you think the prevalence of thousands of music blogs writing about thousands of bands every day has cheapened our relationship with music, or strengthened it? The most damaging aspect is the American Idol everyone-has-a-divine-right-to-be-a-star phenomenon, especially when most of those "idols" are ditched by lunchtime. It's important to hold something back, I feel, and the awards and prize systems just destroy everyone. Accepting a Grammy is like accepting a voodoo doll . . . it will kill you. It's important to understand the attitude that's required in order to make valuable music. Otherwise you might as well be a traveling salesman . . . collecting MTV awards in large buckets. It kills the best part of you.
