Reviews for this host's other properties
Studio was clean and nice decorated. There is fan above the bed, very quiet and pleasant in hot nights. We had 2 balconies - one for drying towels, one for sitting with frappe and watching aircrafts going to Heraklion. We loved it. We had car available for whole stay, so it was very useful for our trips across Crete. Beach is in easy walking distance - 10 min . There are supermarkets and tavernas too. We love this place and want definitely return there.
Very lovely appartment in a small, quiet town. Very close near the only highway of Crete. We rented a car and went to a lot of different interesting villages and places of Crete. The beach is a bit far, but very nice.
We had the biggest room of the building. This was the only one with two balconies. Thereby we could always sit in the shaddow and the wind could flow through. That was very nice.
The apparment isn't luxe, but got everything you need and the owners were very nice en helpful. We had a lovely holiday!
Very friendly and helpful Gastgeber.Wir had a very nice, neat and clean apartment with great sea views.
We love to come back !!!
Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber.Wir hatten eine sehr schöne, ordentliche und saubere Wohnung mit tollem Ausblick aufs Meer.
Wir kommen gerne wieder !!!
The studio Alexandra and Erik gave us the comfort we wanted. The warmth and hospitality of the two is as we know from Limburg !.
The view of the olive grove and the mountain scenery is fantastic. Beaches are within walking distance but we opted for the beauty of the landscape in the spring at its best. The location is ideal for car trips to archaeological sites and the beautiful villages where we have experienced the atmosphere of Crete intense. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend it to everyone.
De studio van Alexandra en Erik bood ons al het comfort dat we wensten. De hartelijkheid en gastvrijheid van beiden is zoals we die kennen van Limburgers!.
Het uitzicht op de olijfboomgaard en het berglandschap is fantastisch. Stranden zijn op loopafstand maar wij kozen voor het prachtige landschap dat in de lente op zijn mooist is. De locatie is ideaal voor auto-dagtochten naar oudheidkundige bezienswaardigheden en de prachtige dorpen waar we de sfeer van Kreta intens beleefd hebben. Kortom we hebben erg genoten en bevelen het iedereen aan.
A quiet appartment very clean in a quiet place near heraklion
The property has the airport located us well gefallen.zentral.
The hosts were very friendly. as self catering were enough shopping vorhanden.wir be sure to come again sometime.
die unterkunft hat uns gut gefallen.zentral gelegen zum flughafen.
die gastgeber waren sehr freundlich. als selbstverpfleger waren genügend einkaufsmöglichkeiten vorhanden.wir werden sicher irgendwann wieder kommen.
We were able to recover Super. Eric and Sandra are very nice, it was very clean and the beds were good to sleep. Towels and sheets were changed every 3-4 days.
Wir konnten uns Super erholen. Eric und Sandra sind sehr nett, es war sehr sauber und die Betten gut zum schlafen. Handtücher und Bettbezüge wurden alle 3-4 Tage gewechselt.
person very helpful and polite and the apartment was very nice I have been very satisfied
personne serviable et tres poli l appartement et il etait tres agreable j ai ete tres satisfaite
The beautiful, great location WoodemShoe Studio!
Very easily accessible and signposted Super - you need to the next bus stop five minutes, to the beach is easily within ten minutes walking distance or 4 minutes by car / scooter.
Erik and Sandra were absolutely helpful and courteous. The apartment has a good enough kitchenette, a nice dining area and a large balcony.
The entire studio, including the bathroom was very well maintained and very clean.
I can only recommend it! Gouves Heraklion is less stressful, and the only thing that bothered what the apartment and great host can not, were the planes that fly directly over the landing in Heraklion Gouves!
I would like to take this opportunity to thank for the extremely pleasant Aufwnthalt with Erik and Sandra!
Das wunderschöne, super gelegene WoodemShoe-Studio!
Sehr leicht erreichbar und Super ausgeschildert - man braucht zur nächsten Bushaltestelle keine fünf Minuten, dazu ist der Strand ganz einfach innerhalb von zehn Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar oder 4 Minuten mit dem Auto/Scooter.
Erik und Sandra waren absolut hilfsbereit und zuvorkommen. Das Apartment hat eine gut ausreichende Kochzeile, einen schönen Essbereich und einen großen Balkon.
Das gesamte Studio, inklusive Bad war super gepflegt und sehr sauber.
Ich kann es nur weiterempfehlen! Gouves ist weniger stressig als Heraklion, wobei das einzige was gestört hat, wofür das Apartment und die tollen Gastgeber nichts können, waren die Flugzeuge, die zur Landung in Heraklion direkt über Gouves fliegen!
Ich möchte mich an dieser Stelle nochmals für den äußerst angenehmen Aufwnthalt bei Erik und Sandra bedanken!
Liebe Grüße
It was a great summerholiday in kato gouves! We stayed 11 days.
The apartment was exactly as on the pictures. Sandra and Eric are very friendly and helpful people. The bus stop is just a one minute walk away. You can easily walk to the beach. On the second half of our stay we rented a car, there is plenty of space in front of the house. There are great restaurants in the area and they aren't expensive. But we also cooked quite a few times and you can find everything you need in the kitchen.
We really can just recommend to stay at Sandra and Eriks!

Tuesday was a big day for Mallory Luney, editor-in-chief of the Kaw yearbook.
She tried to play it cool, knowing that something could come up that would change the plans of the day. But by lunchtime she had given up trying to focus.
"I can't get anything done till they're here," she finally admitted to herself. Soon after, 500 copies of the Kaw were delivered to the Student Media office, lower level, Memorial Union.
Luney, a junior exercise physiology major from LeRoy, Kan., took over as top editor of the 2012-2013 edition of the Kaw in April. Work on that edition, volume 108, finished in August. Now, she's busy planning for the 2013-2014 book.
Student Media Advisor Regina Cassell said the latest edition of the Kaw departs from previous volumes in two significant ways. First, it is the first full color yearbook produced by Washburn University. In past years, some pages were printed in color while most were in black and white. Second, it includes the entire academic year. Because of changing to fall delivery, Cassell said, it includes on-campus events and activities through May. That includes graduation. In the past, supplements were produced that included events and activities that happened after the publication deadline.
Anyone who pre-ordered a copy of the Kaw is welcome to pick it up at Student Media. Others can purchase a copy from the office for $15, or $20 to also receive a Dr. Farley figurine with a nodding head.
Luney, who worked on her high school year book as well, said she learned a lot last year and is excited to make this year's edition of the Kaw great.
There are just four staffers right now and she is actively recruiting.
"We have training," she said. "We're willing to work with anybody."
Those interested in joining the Kaw staff are encouraged to stop by the Student Media office, lower level, Memorial Union or email yearbook staff. Training for all positions is provided and staff members are paid. Luney said experience with Adobe InDesign or experience on high school yearbook staff are preferred.

Hey, you wanna see something really scary? Get yourself to the smart, small, stylish "Mama" immediately.
Director: Andrés Muschietti
MPAA Rating: PG-13
Studio: Toma 78
Hey, you wanna see something really scary? Get yourself to the smart, small, stylish Mama, a horror movie made by and for people who value tension and suspense over splatter and gore.
The movie, presented by Guillermo del Toro, stars Zero Dark Thirty Oscar nominee Jessica Chastain and handsome Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as an artsy, self-absorbed couple who, despite their obvious personal and financial limitations, foster feral young sisters (Megan Charpentier, Isabelle Nélisse) who, five years before, had been left for dead by Coster-Waldau's brother. A bigwig doctor (Daniel Kash) sets them up in a spiffy but creepy suburban home to study whether the badly traumatized sibs can become socialized enough to quit doing things like crawling around on all fours like demented insects.
Chastain's messed-up character struggles to muster maternal compassion, but things get quietly creepier what with giant moths, apparitions and whatnots making brief, tantalizing appearances at regular intervals whenever the girls are around. Although Mama is never really surprising or revelatory, the modest movie holds your attention, looks great and, especially for fans of '40s thrillers like Cat People and I Walked With a Zombie, stays pretty consistently atmospheric and creepy without resorting to played-out horror tropes and clichés. Well, except for overreliance on tacky musical "stings," anyway. Mama may not provide Chastain's finest hour as a thespian, but she, Coster-Waldau, Charpentier and Nélisse more than get the job done.
The whole affair is confidently and expertly directed by first-timer Andrés Muschietti from a script credited to him, Neil Cross and Barbara Muschietti. Bravo and brava to them all for hatching up some fun, tingly, skin-crawling stuff.

target practice won't slow down to much - it will just be more plinking with 22 lr. Thank God for buying those federal bulk packs back when they were around $10 for 550.
It seems everywhere I've looked is just about sold out of 22 LR. The Gander Mountain in Lansing, MI has 900 round plastic ammo cans of cci stingers and they also have some of the choot 'em swamp edition 375 round boxes of 22 lr mini mags still in stock as of yesterday afternoon - but my thoughts are those are still in stock because they aren't in the same area as where the rest of the 22 LR should be. They also had cci plastic cans of 17hmr. So for those looking, check out the endcaps or other displays and you might find what you're looking for.

Imagine singing your heart out for an audience full of adoring fans. Picture yourself riding a tour bus across the country, visiting new places and meeting fans along the way. That is what Miranda Cosgrove, 17, recently experienced. She performed her very first concert tour, "Dancing Crazy."
Miranda has been in the spotlight since the age of 3, when she was discovered in a restaurant while dining with her parents. She has performed in several shows, but is best known for her role as Carly Shay on the Nickelodeon series iCarly. Now, Miranda has hit the road, allowing fans to see her in a new role as she makes 23 concert stops.
TFK Kid Reporter Lauren Dawn caught up with Miranda in Detroit, Michigan, during the first week of her concert tour. Cosgrove had fans "dancing crazy" to her upbeat songs throughout the concert and shared tour highlights with TFK.
What have you enjoyed most about your first concert tour?
Just getting to be on the bus and travel around to all these different places. It's kind of like camp, getting to be with the band all the time. [I also enjoy] getting to be onstage and meeting all these people that watch the show that I never get to see.
Do you get nervous when you are about to go onstage?
I am still in the beginning of it all. Every night, it gets more fun. I do get nervous before I go on. But once I am onstage, it kind of disappears, and I get really into it.
Do you play any instruments?
I play guitar. I have been playing guitar since I was eight. I started taking lessons because I was on Drake and Josh, and Drake played guitar. I really wanted to learn how to play to show off in front of him. I started taking lessons, and he helped me all the time too.
What is your favorite song to sing during your concert?
I like the song, "There Will Be Tears." It's a girl-power song. It's a fun one to do onstage.
Do you have any conflicts with doing the tour and trying to film iCarly?
It has been really nice. I have balanced it out so that right when I'm finished with the tour, I am going to do the next season of the show. It goes back and forth. Hopefully, I [will] get to go on tour again after this next season.
Did you always want to be a singer and an actress?
To be honest, I didn't. I am from Los Angeles. When I was three, an agent just came up to my parents at a restaurant and asked if I wanted to go on auditions. My parents thought, "Why not let her give it a shot?" I went on a few auditions, and I really loved it. I couldn't see myself doing anything different now.
When did you get your first big break in show business?
When I was 8, I auditioned for School of Rock with Jack Black, and I ended up getting to go to New York to film that.
How do you like working with the other actors and actresses on iCarly?
I have known them for so long that I have grown up with them. I have known them since I was 13. I just feel like they're my family. Getting to have them around all the time has been really, really fun.
What are you planning to do after the concert tour?
I am going back to do another season of the show. I just applied to college so I am waiting to see which ones I get into.

Why I Don't Sleep With White Guys
They say nothing comes without a price. However, in the case of being one of the only coloured girls in my city, nothing comes without a race.
I live in a predominately white city. Not by choice (I'm from Toronto), but to attend university. When I first got to the city, I thought people would be incredibly racist and I'd be excluded and snubbed by my peers. Well, the opposite happened.
Arrogance aside (I promise), everywhere I went, I was white men's object (emphasis on object) of desire. And it wasn't just white men -- all races of men I've never encountered, but white men seemed the most enthralled by my presence. But the initial adoration and my swelled ego soon subsided after I realized that men were not attracted to me for being just a "pretty face" -- I was being objectified, exoticized and sexualized for being one of few coloured girls in a sea of white men. I felt alone. And more importantly, I felt disgusted with myself.
Feminist, social activist and African American author bell hooks terms this kind of attraction to the 'Othered' body as "Eating the Other." This is the phenomenon where white men as well as the media view coloured women's bodies, especially black women's, as a site of difference. The coloured body is stereotypically everything the white woman's body is not: she is not "pure," "fair," or "docile." Rather, her body represents deviance, darkness, temptation, evil, and hypersexuality. This detrimental image generates a deep sense of desire and adventure within the white man -- a desire to colonize her body -- 'eat' it up, and use it to come to know himself.
Through fucking a coloured woman, the white man transcends his 'whiteness' and innocence, moving into more experienced and dangerous territory. Literally through her body, he learns what he is and what he is not. He gains access to cross the border into a dark territory that only he, of all his friends, has yet to venture to. But after 'consuming' her multiple times, he becomes sick and repulsed, as with any overconsumption of food, and spits her out.
I found hooks' theory to be overwhelmingly comforting. It came at a time when I was trying to make sense of what was happening to my body and how it was being perceived. It especially came at a time when I found out the guy I had been seeing had a white girlfriend and was sleeping with me to finally make his fantasy of fucking black girls come true (wasn't I lucky to be the first?). As a mixed-race girl, I also found it unsettling that the colour of my skin allowed people to label me as "Black," or as something tropical and exotic -- it was always one of the two. I was getting sick of being approached at bars by white men, changing their pick up line from "Are you an angel? 'Cause it looks like you fell outta heaven." to "I love black people. I have black friends, you know -- now can I take you home?"
Sometimes it was more of an excited squeal, a wide-eyed gawk, their hands shaking as they coyly tried to place their hands on my ass, exclaiming, "I've never danced with a black girl before," looking at me the same way one would attack a Quarter (Dark Meat) Chicken Dinner at Swiss Chalet. Dressing up in cheetah print made it worse. My skin colour and mixed heritage had given me a label I didn't like -- that "Black" girl at the bars, that "Island girl" on the bus. Nobody knew what I was, so I was immediately placed in a stereotypical category that both separated me from others and made me mysterious. I was always that girl, not just a girl.
After months of self-hatred, feeling dirty inside and out and wondering what I was doing wrong, I finally started to come to terms with what was happening around me. Being a racial minority female in a city of racially dominant men made me exotic. I was a hot coloured commodity in a rather colourless city, because they had so few "people like me." The exotification of women comes from being that racialized woman -- the Other kind of woman who does not carry "white" features or practices "white" culture.
It is not a compliment, because like eroticization, it sexualizes, objectifies and racializes the female body, jamming it into a tight space where hypersexuality, primitiveness, danger, temptation and difference are forced upon us. The exotification of the racialized body is a way for non-racialized subjects to, like hooks reminds us, come to know themselves. By casting coloured women as different, they maintain the status quo of race and sex dominance while marginalizing, sexualizing, and dehumanizing coloured women.
This is not to say I have become the mad mixed woman in the attic and have cast off all white men. It's also not to say that this can't happen with all races of men -- I just have yet to find an interracial relationship where my difference isn't at the forefront. I have yet to find that guy who hasn't used me to see if sleeping with me makes him a new man, or a guy who hasn't made the wretched "I love black people" disclaimer upon meeting me.
Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place. But I am speaking to something more structural than just the colour of my skin and people's reactions to it; I am talking about privilege, racism, colonialism -- systems and institutions of power and hierarchy that allow for women of colour to be exotified and Othered; to be treated as sex objects and animals instead of humans. To be treated by non-coloured men as cheapened territory that becomes a game of conquering. Until I find that guy and regain my trust in white men, I've saved myself from being checked off someone's "To Do" list again. And although I could be missing out, it's a good feeling to know I'm finally in control. And it feels great.
This post originally appeared on Sex and Cola. Follow Eternity's blog The Mixed Chick Bible.
Wouldn't we all love for this one to be true? Many experts and studies have found that about 70% of women do not have orgasms from (heterosexual vaginal) intercourse alone (without external clitoral stimulation). This clearly contradicts all the sex scenes we watch on television or in movies where it appears that everyone can climax on demand. (Which is really a shame because that would be nice.) So if you have been wondering what's wrong with you... well, absolutely nothing at all. We are not built the same as men, but the lens through which we talk about sex (or see it) is often male. Many of us wind up feeling badly if our experiences don't match our expectations -- or we start to question the prowess of our partner (but that's another blog post altogether). And don't get me started on pornography -- it can certainly be entertaining, but hardly represents reality. That aside, yes, there are some women who suffer from medical conditions that make orgasm (and even intercourse) difficult or impossible. However, the majority of women are not experiencing sexual dysfunction; we just haven't been given great sex education.
I always find it interesting that we seem to have a hierarchy of sex behaviors. Consider the rationalization: I can have oral or anal sex but it's not really sex so I don't have to count it as having a sex partner. Or I can do this and still be considered a virgin. Or... you get the point. And to complicate matters, depending on who you ask, that hierarchy may change. So here are a few thoughts: All forms of sex are sex. They are all intimate personal behaviors with the capacity for great pleasure and if practiced without protection, the potential for certain negative outcomes, too. Did I convince you? If not, try this: Sex is not just for straight people, which is basically what we're saying when we suggest that vaginal intercourse is the only true form of sex.
In my eleventh grade health class, our teacher showed us photos of penises and vulvas (notice I did not say vagina?) ravaged by sexually transmitted infections. My health class probably wasn't unique. Lots of us were shown these photos as a means of curbing our sexual behavior. Did it work? Nope. It actually backfired. I remember my fellow students squirming in their seats. "That's disgusting!" they screamed as they looked at images of cauliflower-like warts and oozing blisters. While on the surface it may sound like a great way to scare us out of any or all sexual activity, it didn't (shocking, I know). What it actually did was incorrectly teach us that sexually transmitted infections have visible (and quite grotesque) symptoms. (They don't, most of the time.) The fact is, you cannot tell if a partner has a sexually transmitted infection just by looking at their genitals. The only way to know for certain is for you and your partners to get tested.
In addition to not having enough time for conversation, doctors don't always know how to bring up sex in their short time with you. How do I know? I've conducted numerous medical school lectures in an effort to help future medical professionals in this department. But don't just take my word for it. In the last few years there has been some scientific discussion about about how our physicians lack the skills and confidence to talk to patients about sex. In a study published in the March 2012 issue of the Journal of Sexual Medicine, researchers at the University of Chicago Department of Medicine explored how (and if) 1,150 OBGYNs (people who are literally handling our sexual and reproductive body parts) were broaching issues of sexuality in their practices. Even within the field of obstetrics and gynecology, only 40% of physicians routinely asked about sexual problems; 28.5% asked about sexual satisfaction. Pleasure, sexual orientation and sexual identity were discussed even less than that. In a 2010 study published in Academic Medicine, researchers explored how experience and medical school education impacted medical students' comfort in talking about sexuality. Over 53% of medical students felt that they did not receive enough training in how to approach issues of sexuality with patients. So it is clear that while sexual health should be a subject talked about in the doctor's office, it is sorely lacking
No. No no no no, and no. But by the way, if you fantasize about other women and do identify as a lesbian, that's totally cool. Do we have to discuss (yet again) the role that fantasies play in our lives? I must admit, I'm getting tired of having to justify the fact that women have a myriad of fantasies -- some of which may not fit the good girl image that people may have of us. Nonetheless, thinking about someone or something doesn't mean that you want to act it out in real life; it's possible, but not definite. And by the way, I know many (let me repeat, many) heterosexual women who enjoy all sorts of lesbian erotica and pornography and are quite fulfilled by their heterosexual sex lives.
So maybe this isn't a myth, but rather, a frustrating social commentary. It seems like we devote lots of science to demystifying the female orgasm. We contest how many types of orgasms there are, whether or not they even exist, where they may or may not come from and their evolutionary purpose; we even question women's experiences with orgasm if theirs doesn't match ours. While I do believe that science should explore all aspects of human sexuality, I often question how and why we choose to focus (quite frequently) on female orgasms. I find that what this conversation does is delegitimize what many women experience. Who am I (or anyone else for that matter) to tell someone that they didn't experience an orgasm in a particular way? Orgasms are subjective and there is no one (no one) who will ever be able to know what you felt and how or where you felt it.

It's been a huge week for Karl Lagerfeld.
Just after Chanel's Haute Couture spring 2012 runway show took the audience on a jet-lag-free flight, the master launched his very first independent collection for online luxury boutique, NET-A-PORTER.
And so successful was the launch of KARL by Karl Lagerfeld, that within minutes of its worldwide exposé over a dozen pieces were tagged with a 'more sizes coming soon' by-line.
For almost three decades, Karl Lagerfeld has proven to be sincerely loyal and aesthetically devoted to Chanel and its creative team. But with this collection, Lagerfeld got the opportunity to place his personal vision and design ideologies on a virtual plate for the world to see.
When you look at the 70-piece collection, it's almost like looking at a youth collection for Chanel. Imagine the mother of the house wearing a pearly white tweed suit by Chanel and then picture her daughter wearing metallic leather skirt with a biker jacket and cutaway leather gloves from the KARL by Karl Lagerfeld's collection. It's a perfect match!
The palette of this technologically driven collection is speeding up the monochromatic highway with punctures of glittery silver and pastel pink. There's no collision or confusion in the colours or prints, but the fabric sheet has voted to be on the opposing team with shiny leather, metallic silk, crepe-cotton and sequined fabrics copiously seen in the collection.
As for the designs, Lagerfeld has stayed true to his personal style and given his fans a taste of rockabilly-glamour – high-waisted skirts with slits, tuxedo-style blouses and biker jackets. The silhouette is exactly what you'd expect Lagerfeld to deliver – tailored, angular and extremely willowy, to say the least. Even the abundance of leather in the collection hasn't gone unnoticed. Part of this online-exclusive is a range of detachable collars, tote bags, sneakers, wedge heels, gladiators and pumps. Some pieces even have Lagerfeld's presence emblazoned all over them with a silhouette imprint of the designer's ponytailed self.
Just this week, KARL unveiled in simultaneous five-city launch, namely New York, London, Paris, Berlin and Sydney via a window-shopping pop-up store experience. While net-a-porter's social media team huddled their Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr pages with live updates from the launch, the virtual shopping trolley boiled with clothes that impersonated Karl Lagerfeld at his best.
Barring a few pieces that are 'sold out', be sure to check out KARL by Karl Lagerfeld's accessible line on net-a-porter.com and grab the signature fingerless leather gloves.
You can also view more pictures of the collection at the gallery above.

The 16th Parker novel, Butcher's Moon, is more than twice as long most of the master heister's adventures, and absolutely jammed with the action, violence, and nerve-jangling tension listeners have come to expect. Back in the corrupt town where he lost his money, and nearly his life, in Slayground, Parker assembles a stunning cast of characters from throughout his career for one gigantic, blowout job: starting - and finishing - a gang war. It feels like the Parker novel to end all Parker novels, and for nearly 25 years, that's what it was.
©1974 Richard Stark; Foreword © 2011 by Lawrence Block (P)2013 AudioGO
"Great suspense. Great read."
A lot of killing. I was smiling a lot at the end.
This is one of the best Parker books. It's better if you read Slayground before this. This continues that story. This is sooo good. Great revenge! Parker takes on a local mob. They are no match for Parker. They are like children next to him.
I was intrigued with a comment in the Forward by Lawrence Block. When Stark was writing the first Parker novel, Block asked Stark if he knew where the story was going. Stark said "Sort of. I'll just keep writing and see where it goes." That reminded me of Stephen King. King said something like he never knows his plot or ending in advance. He just starts with an inspiration. I think that's a great way to write. Stark is doing the same.
The narrator Joe Barrett was pretty good, but I did not like his voice for Parker. It sounded too normal-guy-like. I prefer Keith Szarabajka.
This is book 16 in the 24 book series. These stories are about bad guys. They rob. They kill. They're smart. Most don't go to jail. Parker is the main bad guy, a brilliant strategist. He partners with different guys for different jobs in each book.
If you are new to the series, I suggest reading the first three and then choose among the rest. A few should be read in order since characters continue in a sequel fashion. Those are listed below (with my star ratings). The rest can be read as stand alones.
The first three books in order:
4 stars. The Hunter (Point Blank movie with Lee Marvin 1967) (Payback movie with Mel Gibson)
3 ½ stars. The Man with the Getaway Face (The Steel Hit)
4 stars. The Outfit.
Read these two in order:
5 stars. Slayground (Bk #14)
5 stars. Butcher's Moon (Bk #16)
Read these four in order:
4 ½ stars. The Sour Lemon Score (Bk #12)
2 ½ stars. Firebreak (Bk #20)
(not read) Nobody Runs Forever (Bk #22)
2 ½ stars. Dirty Money (Bk #24)
Others that I gave 4 or more stars to:
The Jugger (Bk #6), The Seventh (Bk#7), The Handle (Bk #8), Deadly Edge (Bk#13), Flashfire (Bk#19)
GENRE: noir crime fiction
"One of the best"
Definitely read all the previous books before reading this one. Lots of references and characters from them. Three more words.

Graduate candidacy
At the approximate midpoint of each graduate student's course of study, the student must pass a faculty review for candidacy. In order to be reviewed, the student must have met all requirements for the program up to that point with a grade point average of at least 3.0 in the major.
In the candidacy review, faculty members assess the student's complete body of work, as well as the student's readiness to continue in the program and succeed in the field upon graduation. Reviews are structured according to the discipline and degree program, assessing evidence of knowledge of historical methodology, logical thought and original ideas, as well as aesthetic considerations. Candidates should demonstrate strong fundamental art and design skills, performance skills, teaching skills, technical proficiency, and/or strong academic and research proficiency required of the discipline and degree program. Academic performance, as demonstrated by individual course grades, also serves as an indication of a student's readiness to proceed to candidacy. Students who experience academic difficulty should consult with their department chair or graduate coordinator. Additional guidelines for the candidacy review can be found on the graduate studies website in MySCAD.

-meansdplot- is a program from Phil Ender from UCLA:
meansdplot from http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/ado/analysis
meansdplot. Plot mean and stendard deviation for multiple groups. /

Please remember that you are asked to explain _where_ user-written
programs you refer to come from.
You have, I think, found a bug in -meansdplot-. The program accepts an
-if- qualifier [not a statement] but it only affects part of the plot
and does not affect the main calculations.
One work-around for what you want while Phil fixes the code is
forval j = 1/3 {
keep if group == `j'
meansdplot var1 var2
-sttripplot- (SSC) and -dotplot- are other commands with broadly
similar aims. It is also always possible to -collapse- a dataset
-by()- some group variable and plot summary statistics directly.

Although the ladies in the photograph appear to be in good health and are enjoying their tea in pleasant surroundings, evidence uncovered today reveals stark truths about the lives of librarians in the 1920s. Seeking something else entirely, I stumbled upon the following in the 1921 Annual Report of Brooklyn Public Library, which, thanks to the kind ministrations of Google Books is now available online. Evidently it was the habit of the Assistant Chief Librarian to list in one paragraph all those who had fallen in the line of duty during the year. Call me twisted, but to me the resultant litany is darkly comic. Who knew that working in a library could be so dangerous to your health?
"The year has marked the termination of service rendered over an unusually long period of several members of the staff. Mr. William E. Lanchantin, Bursar, was stricken with paralysis on April llth. He came to the Library, August 6, 1903. Miss Frances Elcock was appointed in 1891 an assistant in the Union for Christian Work Library, and continued her services when that library became the Schermerhorn Branch of the Brooklyn Public Library, January 2, 1901. In April, Miss Elcock became physically incapacitated and was released from her duties. The name of Miss Charlotte A. Todd has been carried on the pay roll since October 1, 1917. At that time Miss Todd became mentally incapacitated, and because of the fact that she had been with the Library since the opening of the Schermerhorn Branch she was given an indefinite leave. With the closing of the Schermerhorn Branch her name was dropped. Ill health compelled Miss Elizabeth M. Johnson to relinquish her duties on October 14, 1921. She had been in the Reference Department of Montague since 1889. Miss Louise M. Chappuis of the Cataloguing Department went on her summer vacation to Florida, and while there, discovered that she had an incurable disease. An operation was performed, but she has not been able to return to the Library. Miss Chappuis entered the Library's service, January 8, 1902. Although the Library has no pension system nor retiring allowance, in view of the long and faithful service rendered, the Trustees carried these names on the pay roll through the end of the year. Miss Louise F. Tweedy, Library Assistant, Grade 2, at the Montague Branch, submitted her resignation on December 22, 1921, on account of ill health. She was a member of the Brooklyn Library Staff, and continued her services with the Brooklyn Public Library after June 12, 1903. Mr. John W. Johns, Caretaker at the Borough Park Branch, died on January 26, 1921. He entered the Library service August 16, 1913. Mr. William F. Fales, Head Caretaker at the Eastern Parkway Branch, resigned on account of ill health on May 14, 1921, after working for the Library for over eleven years, and died on May 25, 1921."
But don't worry--we're doing much better these days.

I could write many, many entries on Brooklyn during World War II (and perhaps someday I will), but for the time being I am drawn to a small, rarely noticed item in our collection:
There is nothing astounding about this particular ration book, other than the fact that it still exists. I have been fascinated with the World War II home front since I first encountered the American Girl tales in my childhood, but I have never seen an actual ration book. So you can imagine my delight when I stumbled upon a few of them while preparing for a lesson on war efforts in Brooklyn.
The construction of the book is unimposing and reflective of a period when everything was conserved for the greater good. The cover is thin, the stamps are even thinner, and the entire book is the size of a passport. One can imagine that many a ration book was damaged or lost.
To me, the book is evidence of the struggle and sacrifice that every family had to face during the war. The instructions are clear and intimidating: "Any attempt to violate the rules is an effort to deny someone his share and will create hardship and help the enemy." And the emphasis on rationing as much as possible is repeated time and again: "If you don't need it, DON'T BUY IT."
Even the front with its official identification information, including height, weight, and occupation, emphasizes the intense importance of this book. This is not just an accessory for the weekly grocery shopping; it is a government-issued tool of the war effort. The stamps themselves include images of tanks, guns, and aircraft carriers - constant reminders that, no matter how small, every action at home had an impact overseas.
Attention Brooklyn Buffs and Buffettes--can you identify the building in this picture? Clue--it was in Brooklyn, and the photo was taken in May 1914. Post your answers or guesses as a comment and collect kudos for being the first to get it right. AND--the winner gets a free 8 x 10 copy print of the featured picture. All comments will be published together when the winner is announced so as not to give the game away.
Opening night of the 2009 Major League Baseball season is just 12 short nights away as I write. Brooklyn's baseball team is long gone, the Dodgers having played their last game in Brooklyn in 1957. While working on some research for a patron, I found a cheeky bit of ephemera for Brooklyn Dodger fans hiding in the Ephemera Collection files. Called "A Health and Safety Manual for the 1954 Baseball Season for Spectators, for Radio and TV fans and for all Brooklynites and other Dodger fans whereever they are," this guide instructs Dodger fans on how to avoid such conditions as:
"Hyperpiesia Straphicoi Enthusiastae – Dodger Fans Hypertension"
"Ulcus Brooklynensis Lodorum – Brooklyn Praisers' Ulcers – Duodenal, Peptic, and Gastric"
"Broken Noses – Brooklynese for an ailment which is not phychosomatic but is very disturbing"
This guide was produced by the Public Information Department, Brooklyn Chapter, American Red Cross and Radio Station WMGM (which broadcasted Brooklyn Dodger games in the 1950s). The editors allow that the guide may be somewhat in jest, but overexcitement by Dodger fans can lead to serious injuries (I agree - I've injured myself plenty of times as a fan).
The subtitle to this little piece is called "Care and Protection of Dodger Fans, Volume IV". Volume IV? Were they kiddng? Did they really have 3 previous editions? Well, judging from many articles and reminiscences, Brooklyn Dodger fans were pretty rowdy. I'll keep their suggestions in mind this baseball season.
I've been a Dodger fan all of my life (the Los Angeles Dodgers, since I'm too young to have loved the Brooklyn team), but I have to admit, while I haven't broken anyone's nose at a baseball game, I have come close in my excitement -- never my anger. Choking on food while cheering, check. Tip #5 tells me how to avoid the combination of cheering and eating. These are a few of the highlights that I will heed while I am watching games in the ball parks (New York City sees the new Yankee Stadium and Citi Field open this year), listening to games on the radio, or watching the games on my laptop. Perhaps I will make myself a copy of these tips and read them before every game - if not for the advice then just for the fun of it.
Tip #3: "Root calmly, thoughtfully and coherently. Avoid sore throats, strained voice boxes, fisticuff provoking insults and guilt feelings which might arise as you wonder whether or not you exposed the children to undue profanity. When shouting (with controlled verve), take care not to shake loose bridgework, bite your tongue or dislocate your jaw."
Tip #6: Don't flail about during moments of exultation. When Roy Campanella hits that tenth inning home run, control any tendency toward wild waving. You might hurt your neighbor or yourself, or run your hand through the radio loudspeaker or television screen."
Tip #9: If Dodger fielding or baserunning ever reverts to the days of Babe Herman (although with players like Robinson, Gillam, Cox, Reese and Hodges it's unlikely), lower your head quickly between your knees to avoid fainting. Then remain perfectly still while regaining your composure. This goes double for dropped third strikes and Giant home runs with the bases loaded.

If you're a photo nut like me, you may be scrolling through the posts on Brooklynology, thinking "Wow! These are awesome pics! I wonder if they have any more?" Well, have I got news for you. The answer is YES!
For some instant gratification, start at the Historic Brooklyn Photo Galleries. Browse through photos by selected themes such as neighborhoods, the Brooklyn Dodgers, and transportation.
If that's not enough, you can search more than 15,000 photographs in the BPL catalog. If Coney Island is your thing, a simple keyword search will give you a list of books along with unique photographs from the Brooklyn Collection. You can also find photos from the Historic Photos page, which searches the BPL catalog and gives you a list of thumbnail images. And if you find one you really like, you can buy a high resolution digital image or print. The reproduction fees support the preservation of these unique collections. So not only do you get art for your wall, you get that warm fuzzy feeling from supporting a worthy cause. We are adding photographs every day so keep coming back, and enjoy!


text: More a curiosity than anything else, but exploring methods of queen rearing for small (less than 5) apiary. In the process of making a cell builder, if I were to temporarily remove my queen from the most productive hive, how much of an impact would it have on honey yield? Other than the time that queen is absent and not laying, and therefore those brood would not be available when they would have become field bees. So is this noticeable? Thanks

Don Diego
It's safe to say Don Diego cigars are made well. I can't recall receiving complaints about the quality or construction of this brand. It's the recipient of numerous favorable ratings from various cigar magazines and commands prices anywhere from $4 to $7 per stick (well, not at CI). Holding the cigar in my hand, a hefty 6"x50 Grande, I can easily agree with these statistics. A sweet, cedary aroma works hand in hand with a light, vein-free wrapper to scream, "Pick me, I'm mild!" to passersby. And mild it is. Smooth, mild and crisp. Not bad, especially if you're new to cigars, or the exact opposite, a loyal veteran that refuses to try something new. I find that a lot from those that smoke old brands like these...Don Diego, Henry Clay, Hoyo de Monterrey etc. Come on fellas, variety is the spice of life! But I digress. The chestnut-brown Connecticut shade wrapper is incredibly smooth, and lends a straight burn from first light, while the Dominican and Brazilian long-fillers turn to a solid light-grey ash. The aroma remains pleasant, and will surely please any crowd. The flavor, that's another story. These days, I find this cigar doesn't have enough character to please my palate, which is growing more critical by the hour. The flavor is pleasant, and mellow. Offering the slightest hint of cedar. No bells, no whistles, just a crisp tobacco flavor that diminishes hastily after each puff. If I smoked 1 cigar every few days, Don Diego might stand a chance, but I'm up to 2-3 a day lately. That kind of rotation calls for something with a little more substance. There's nothing wrong with mild, as long as there's some complexity to add a little excitement. Sorry Don Diego, things just aren't going to work out.

Posted by Thomas Husson on July 20, 2012
Too many firms are investing in mobile technologies without a road map. Most companies are investing in a wide range of mobile technologies, but only 40% of companies that Forrester interviewed have defined a mobile road map for the next 12 months. In fact, few firms have a detailed plan on how to create mobile products and services.
Implementing a mobile road map requires an iterative approach. To add new mobile services, product strategists must evaluate consumers' mobile behaviors and attitudes, adapt their companies' mobile business plans, refine their overall digital road maps, and assess the maturity levels of mobile technologies.
Successful mobile road maps require investment in supporting activities. Making specific investments in mobile education and skills development, maintaining organizational flexibility to increase speed to market, and adapting to local markets are key to the success of a mobile road map.
For example, the most advanced firms have a mobile steering committee in place — usually part of a broader digital governance team — with representatives from different business units, different roles, and different geographies. The role of such a governance body is not just to set the vision but also to prioritize and select mobile projects based on a clear list of criteria. One global brand's mobile governance body, for example, identified up to 100 planned mobile initiatives. To select the best ones and rationalize investment, it put a framework in place with four simple questions for candidates to justify the funding of their projects: What benefits will it bring to consumers; what corporate objectives will it serve; what's the business case; and what new features will be required in the second year?

F2P no xp no money
I bought the no level cap dlc but I'm not getting any xp or money after competitive matches. I used to have the disc version of UC3 and am currently lvl.48. Have tried re-downloading and install the no level cap but nothing changes.
Is it because I'm using data for the disc version? If so how do I change it? I don't mind starting from lvl.0 again.
awesome game amigos. thanks for any help

Please check your Downloads history in the PSN Store, chances are you only installed one or the other, but not both.
They are called:
The X's will be different depending on if you purchase the EU or NA version.
Re: F2P no xp no money[ Edited ]
Both of them are installed. There are 2 files (the big one - 5GB) and the small one (500KB), right?
Keep in mind that the paid version (500KB) removes the ads, so it is certainly installed.
ps: The PS store doesn't list them as *.pkg files, though...
Re: F2P no xp no money
They don't show the .pkg extension necessarily, but the file names should be accurate.

I am doing some research into 6-9 frame radial extractors and the SAF 9 frame with honey tank keeps coming up as a good contender for me. However I am a little concerned over the plastic/nylon rings in the cage assembly. Can anyone with experience with these extractors comment on how long they hold up? I will not be buying until my tax return comes in so there is no rush.
Thank you for your time and support.

We has a lovely stay in Marta's apartament. We arrived later then expected, and Marta very kindly came to collect us. A very clean and modern apartament. Very enjoyable stay, we highly recommended.
We spent a great time in Joao's appartement and in Lissabon. The appartement is really beautiful, clean and has everything you need. You can walk everywhere from the appartement and the communication was very good. Thank you Joao!
Verry nice rooms good situated nearby the tram 28. nice trip by feed to the center 15 minutes. or making sideseeing with the tram 28. Verry good bed and a kitchen full equipped. Thank you to Marta and Joao for all.
Very nice and bright appartment in the Bairro Alto. The interior is modern and basic, very comfy bed and enough space for up to 4 people I'd say. Easy to get to either the train station or next tram stop, but you can easily walk the whole of central Lisbon from here - which I would recommend in any way as you can discover and see even more of this beautiful city. There are loads of small supermarkets around the corner and restaurants in a few minutes walk distance.
Joao and Marta are fantastic hosts (thanks for the lifts!!) who would give you advice on where to go and what to see - depending on your interests. They are also available in case of queries during the stay and would respond straight away. Highly recommend this place. Thanks Joao and Marta!!
This place is very cosy and beautiful. Location was great, host couple was super friendly and helpful, they even gave us ride from and to the airport. The whole experience was way more than we expected. We warmly recommend this place!

Les Goble taught James Bond to drive, and now Aston Martin's performance driving executive travels the globe, planning and running events for some of the world's most exclusive cars.
How do you get a job like that?
Twelve years ago he chatted trackside with Aston boss Dr Ulrich Bez. They agreed that if customers better understood driving dynamics they'd get more out of their cars. Two weeks later Bez rang with an offer.
Goble began designing driving courses that taught Aston owners about adaptive damping, gearshift maps, "stuff like that, and then the performance driving".
With the new V12 Vanquish, "I got my owners to drive the hill route at Millbrook proving ground in their own car - not fast, but to feel the suspension, the performance, the brakes for two laps - then jump into a Vanquish. When you do it back-to-back you realise how the engineering has moved on."
It's one of his favourite vehicles.
"That V12, it revs up to 7500 and it pulls. It's not like some big old labouring V8. It just gives you that punch in the back. It puts a smile on my face, that car."
Part of his course covers reading the road to get speed into, and through, corners. "A tyre can only do so much work. These are ordinary drivers, not racers, but the theory is the same. Go down a twisty road and it's all about car control, balance, smoothness, and you can take that theory to the track, where it's about smoothness, accuracy and consistency.
"Ayrton Senna said there's no such thing as the perfect lap, and if he can say that we've got no chance." Goble says of race drivers: "Their eyesight comes up, they anticipate. Get those techniques right and you're more economical, and because you're reading the road ahead, you're safer."
He started out racing European cars and still does - mainly shared drives with owners of cars like a DB4. "Standing on the podium at Spa two years ago after the 6-Hour, surviving six hours with 110 cars on the grid and getting a fast win, that's very special."
Most memorable drive? "Going 354km/h in a McLaren GT1.
"Driving with Stirling Moss is right up there. To be standing there, talking to Stirling Moss about the car and you think, just a minute, he's a legend and there's his name on the side of my car."
That would be Goble's racer - a Lotus Cortina at the Goodwood Revival. "It was 85kW. It's 138 now. Technology is moving on. The engineers are allowed to put better pistons in, change the camshaft profiles, but the block is original. The car is largely original"
Suspension, brakes and tyres have improved while he's been racing. "Today's Le Mans racers, they don't focus on the Mulsanne straight but the Porsche curves. If you can get through those as quickly as possible, the rest will just follow."
It doesn't always work. Racing a VW Beetle at Brands Hatch, "We were playing with tyre pressures, went down the bottom of Paddock Hill bend, back ... then the kerb was fairly abrasive and it just ripped the tyre off the rim and the car barrel-rolled all the way up. All I can remember is green-blue-green-blue then it went horribly quiet, and I was upside down and thought, it's not all over yet. Bam! It bent the roll cage, my helmet was smashed in. Thank God it was bolted together properly."
Les was in New Zealand to run a driving event at Taupo. Aston's On Track delivers performance events alongside On Tour, which is "not about driving at 1000mph for eight hours. It's about four or five hours of leisurely touring, staying at beautiful hotels." He runs 150 performance driving courses a year, track days and On Tour days, and is thinking about an event in Queenstown.
Favourite track? "Spa. Fast, flowing, undulating, character, wow factor. As a driver, every time I go through Eau Rouge and Raidillon I think, whew, made it! It's wonderful."
As for roads, America is relaxing to drive in - "the sheer space" - the UK is busy.
"It seems to me New Zealand and Australia are 100 per cent paranoid on the police and spend more time worrying about the police than you do driving. Overtaking is a nightmare as well. You pass a big lorry doing 98 and you're doing 100, you're in that danger zone so long."
And James Bond? "I taught Daniel Craig to drive for Casino Royale. He came to Gaydon [Aston's UK headquarters] and we drove the DB9 and DB6. Then we were in Prague where the scene of the tanker crashing through the coach was filmed, and we rented an airport, a live airfield, which made it interesting. He wanted to learn to toe and heel; I got him power-sliding out of a parking space and down the runway."
Is he ready to retire? Only if "I stopped enjoying it, but not yet. I'm not ready to sit down with a flat cap and put my feet up."

Proplectella amphora: ciliate in a bottle
This small (75 micron) creature looks a lot like a small ciliate sitting in a glass jar. The cilate feeds on algae and is usually extended outside the open end of its lorica or shell to feed.

Reviews of this property
We felt very comfortable with Gabriel, the apartment is stylishly furnished and has everything you need (use of kitchen, bathroom). In 5 minutes you can walk to Willesden Green tube station (Zone 2 yet), from there you need 20 minutes to the City of London. Near the apartment there are two supermarkets. Gabriel is a friendly and reserved host. The district and the apartment are ideal to get after a day in the vibrant London to rest. I was with our son there, we are thrilled!
Wir haben uns bei Gabriel sehr wohl gefühlt, die Wohnung ist stilvoll eingerichtet und hat alles, was man braucht (Küchennutzung, Bad). In 5 Minuten ist man zu Fuß an der U-Bahn-Station Willesden Green (noch Zone 2), von dort braucht man 20 Minuten bis in die City of London. In der Nähe der Wohnung gibt es zwei Supermärkte. Gabriel ist ein freundlicher und zurückhaltender Gastgeber. Der Ortsteil und die Wohnung sind ideal, um nach einem Tag im pulsierenden London zur Ruhe zu kommen. Ich war mit unserem Sohn da, wir sind begeistert!
The Apartment is super, no much to say! It's perfectly clean not only at arrival, but during all permanence. It's quite far from center, but with subway (5 min walk) you can reach Oxford Street in 20 mins. The best part is Gabriel, the owner, I think the most affable person in London :)
Book this place with no hesitation, it worth double of its price!
We have a few cold wet days in London, it was nice coming home in this cozy apartment. We slept in a nice bed and Gabriel was a very attentive host. Just a few minutes walk from the metro station with a direct line to the center!
We hebben een paar koude natte dagen in Londen doorgebracht, het was prettig 'thuiskomen' in dit sfeervolle appartement. We hebben prima geslapen in een heerlijk bed en Gabriel was een zeer attente gastheer. Slechts een paar minuten lopen van het metrostation met een rechtstreekse lijn het centrum in!
Having looked at dozens of properties on Wimdu, I eventually came across Gabriel's place - in Willesden Green. What a find. Gabriel is so warm and welcoming. His home is beautiful, with its beautiful big windows and high ceilings. The bedroom I stayed in was exactly as pictured on the website, light, airy and incredibly spacious. Crisp clean bedding and a top quality duvet and pillows. I feel lucky to have found this place and have already booked to stay again. Thank you Gabriel!
Thanks Gabriel, you were a very hospitable and friendly host. Can recommend this venue to everybody. Close to bus and tube stations. A lovely flat and a charming welcome and a comfortable stay in quite stunning surroundings.
Very nice comfortable room and well located in zone 2 with metro and direct bus to central London. Very good home Gabriel does everything to make the stay pleasant.
Très belle chambre confortable et bien situé, en zone 2 avec métro et bus direct pour le centre de Londres. Très bon accueil de Gabriel qui fait tout pour rendre le séjour agréable.
We had some great day´s in London and this was also because we´d found this wonderful apartment at WIMDU. It was as beautiful, clean and tasteful furnished as on the pictures shown. The bed was very comfortable, pillows nice and soft.
Shops are close by and it was a pleasure to prepare breakfast in this well equiped kitchen, with wooden cupboards and black marble worktop.
It was also a pleasure to sit in the beautiful livingroom just for a while to make plans for the day.
Gabriel gave us a warm welcome and was very kind and helpful, e.g. finding the bus to Portobello or the fastest way to Camden. Also the tip for taking a minicab was very helpful. He offered me tea cause I caught a cold.
We´re looking forward to our next trip to London and then nowhere else than at Gabriel´s apartment.
If there were stars to give - 5 stars !!!
Our stay at Gabriel was very good! The room is exactly as in the photos. Gabriel gave us a very nice and got us anytime with tips and advice. Until the city takes it from his apartment not long for each station there is a good connection. Overall, the six days were very pleasant to him. We can recommend the room. Thanks for the nice stay!
Unser Aufenthalt bei Gabriel war sehr gut! Das Zimmer ist genauso, wie auf den Fotos. Gabriel hat uns sehr nett empfangen und stand uns jederzeit mit Tips und Ratschlägen zur Seite. Bis in die Innenstadt dauert es von seiner Wohnung aus auch nicht lange, für jede Station gibt es eine gute Anbindung.
Insgesamt waren die sechs Tage bei ihm sehr angenehm. Wir können das Zimmer weiterempfehlen. Danke für diesen schönen Aufenthalt!
Our stay at Gabriel was very pleasant. The neighborhood is very typical Willsden green and friendly. The bed is soft like a cloud. A very good address in a host of nicer.
Notre séjour chez Gabriel a été très agréable. Le quartier de Willsden green est très typique et sympa. Le lit est moelleux comme un nuage. Une très bonne adresse chez un hôte des plus gentil.
The apartment is beautiful as the pictures and great. Gabriel is a very good host. Thank you Gabriel ;-)

It's still a long time until then but so what?
It's still a long time until then but so what?
I tend to think it will still be Plushenko vs. Joubert. It seems to me that Evgeny REALLY wants that Olympic title and is willing to work endlessly for it. I'm sure he wants to erase a lot of the bad memories from SLC and redeem himself. I think he may just do it, too. But, anything can happen in a year and a half. Weir could get a consistent quad and really challenge the top tier.
I think it will be close. Evgeni, unless injured, should be in the top two easily. But will Joubert be the main threat? I think Stephane and Johnny with consistent quads will be much more of a threat than Brian. After SA 2002, I thought Brian would be the main challenge going into the Olympics, but after this year's Worlds, I'm not so sure.
PS But I voted for Evgeni, naturally.
Only one year ago I thought Evgeny is soooo superior and head and shoulders above everyone, but now, after this season, I've serious doubts. The injury ... and many of his competitors've made up ground and already snapping at his heels. I've got the strange feeling Turino might come too late for him, but well, it's just me.
I've voted for Joubert, because in opposite to Princess Leppard I think he became even stronger, and much cooler!!!, last season.
But IMO also Johnny Weir could be a serious contender. I saw him at Worlds 2004 for the first time and was simply knocked out by the effortless beauty and artistry of his skating. He seems to be a quite ambitious and self-confident young man and if he gains consistency (and at least two quads!!! ) everything is possible!
I've to admit Andrei Griazev still doesn't look like an coming Olympic Champion right now but who knows? He's with the great Tarasova after all and the last two guys she had ...

Unless Plushy inadvertently ties the laces of his left and right skates together thus forcing him to trip over himself, he should win gold. I, personally, did not care for his 2004 Worlds performances--errors+sloppy--but obviously the judges feel differently. I believe this should carry him to Oly victory.
Yes, I think it will be Plushenko vs. Joubert, but I voted for Joubert because of the recent injury Plushenko has had... and some of his competitors are catching up to him.
I vote for Plushenko. Not only is he one heck of a skater, he also is very experienced. This will also be his second Olympic experience running for Gold.
My vote goes to Joubert. I'm fairly sure PLushenko and Joubert will be the top two unless they make major mistakes, in which case Johnny and Timmy can battle each other out to overthrow them. If the Olympics were this year I'd say Plushenko, but he has an injury and obviously has no intentions of cutting back with his three GP's and while he is determined, Joubert is tailing him now. And persnally I find Plushenko sloppy at times and his spins are so slow. I think Joubert has the technical skills and presentation to match him. I think it will be very close, I'm actually reminded of Boitano vs Orser when i think about 2006.Originally Posted by Germanice
I think Plushy will win, but Joubert is going to challenge him in every way. I don't see Johnny Weir challenging Plushy or Brian in this Olympics, but I think 2010 will be his year. Joubert is a really competitive guy and despite his fist pumping, he really impressed me at this year's worlds (esp in the SP).
I see Timmy being on the podium b/c Timmy tends to skate his best at big events (esp in the past few years).
I'm reserving my opinion on Timmy until I see his "comeback" this year.Originally Posted by soogar

I voted for Joubert. He's getting to be a remarkably consistent skater, very much like Yags was in '02 and I think he could take it. Plushy will definitely be in there, though, as will Weir and prolly others like Lambiel, so it will be interesting. Who knows, there may be someone out of the blue who could surprise us (*crosses fingers and hopes for VDP*)
I voted for Joubert, although in my heart I really want Plushy to win the gold in 2006. I am concerned about Plushy's injuries and it is hard to tell what shape he will be in. Joubert, being a couple years younger will have the advantage of a healthier body. He is also a very focused, goal oriented skater. I don't care for his skating right now (too much Yagudin, and not enough Joubert), but he is likely to improve and be at the top of his game going into the 2006 Olympics. I see the same with Johnny Weir. If Plushenko wants to win the Olympic gold, he will have to find a way to hold off these two, and don't forget about the charming Stephane Lambiel either. One fall in the SP will not be as punitive under the COP as it was in the 6.0 system. So I think any of these skaters could win the gold, even with one mistake.
I vote for Plushenko - barring injury, I think he'll still be the favourite. There will definitely be others in there with medal chances though, such as Joubert, Lambiel, and Weir (if he gets a quad), not to mention maybe a skater or two who will move up the rankings. I'd love to see Plush at the top and Lambiel with silver.
I would love to see Klimkin in the mix... one can only hope.

Michele Bachmann: Obama's certification of live birth is good enough for me
posted at 8:18 pm on April 20, 2011 by Allahpundit
Skip ahead to 2:55 for the key bit. I think I know what's going on here, but it's better that you watch and form your own judgment. The key exchange:
Stephanopoulos: Well I have the president's certificate right here. It's certified, it's got a certification number. It's got the registrar of the state signed. It's got a seal on it. And it says 'this copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.'
Bachmann: Well, then that should settle it.
Stephanopoulos: So it's over?
Bachmann: That's what should settle it. I take the president at his word and I think– again I would have no problem and apparently the president wouldn't either. Introduce that, we're done. Move on.
Stephanopoulos: Well this has been introduced. So this story is over?
Bachmann: Well as long as someone introduces it I guess it's over.
Even a RINO candy-ass non-Birther like me is well enough acquainted with the nuts and bolts of the issue to know that Stephanopoulos doesn't have his "birth certificate" in hand there. He has the Certification of Live Birth, the same document produced by The One's campaign three years ago showing that he was born in Hawaii, which is based on information in the long-form birth certificate but isn't the same thing. The actual long-form birth certificate is still under lock and key at the Hawaii health department; it does exist, according to a former department chief who says she's seen it, and it does authenticate Obama's birth in Hawaii, but neither Steph nor anyone else will get a copy until The One requests one and hands it out. Maybe Stephanopoulos knows that and is being coy by offering the COLB to Bachmann to see how she'd react, or maybe he hasn't done his homework and genuinely thinks this is the secret document about which Birthers have been obsessing.
More interesting, though, is Bachmann's reply: Either she's so eager to be done with this issue that she's willing to play along with Steph's ignorance to lay it to rest, or she herself is so disinterested in Birtherism that she hasn't bothered to learn the distinction between the long-form certificate and the COLB. Based on what she told Fox last week, I think it's the latter. It sounds like she's willing to play ball when asked about this, since some people take it seriously enough to keep posing the question, but she'd obviously rather talk about ObamaCare and the debt crisis. So she gives the constitutional answer — yes, let's all check the natural-born box by producing our birth certificates — but she's not so invested in the issue as to be a stickler about which "certificates" qualify. A mild surprise given her status as a hero of the base, which is where most Birthers seem to reside, but also proof that she'd rather focus on fiscal issues than question The One's legitimacy.

But first, I'd like to thank everyone who entered and for everyone's support. It was a difficult decision, and as I stated earlier, thankfully I was not a part of. My team was quite impressed with all the entries and their ability to promote the ROCKER PODs for us. The conclusion was that all the vehicles would be great candidates to promote the ROCKER PODs. One entry in particular stood out from all the others, due to its originality, you'll know why once you click on the link [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCvHOhAfcPw"]YouTube - rockerpods[/ame] . CONGRATULATIONS SPRINGTHING! Everyone at UTG agrees that 'The Sarge' will be a perfect "spokes vehicle" for the ROCKER PODs. We look forward to seeing the ROCKER PODs on 'The Sarge'. Everyone at Ultimate Truck Gear, including myself, is really excited about this build. We have not done an install on a Suburban yet. Way to go Steve and congratulations again on an extremely creative entry! :great: THE TEAM AT UTG CAN NOW GET BACK TO WORK…:sign0011: Pete

Stephen Petronio's high-velocity uptown New York troupe will fit easily into the context of the ICA's current "Super Vision" show, since he's already collaborated, if peculiarly, with Anish Kapoor and Cindy Sherman. Presenting the Barbara Lee Theater's first show (January 12-13), Petronio's company will offer BLOOM and its prelude, Bud, to familiar and commissioned songs by that retro hipster Rufus Wainwright, plus The Rite Part, an excerpt from Petronio's 1992 Stravinsky-inspired Full Half Wrong.
Athletic and amped, tough-girl-makes-good Elizabeth Streb appears at the ICA with her troupe in the aptly named STREB vs. Gravity (February 22-25). Guess who wins? Charismatic, introspective poetry-slam champion Marc Bamuthi Joseph explores the embattled history of Haiti in Scourge (March 2-4), with choreography by hip-hop elder statesman Rennie Harris and Adia Whitaker of the Ase Dance Theatre Collective and texts by emerging San Francisco writers. Aszure Barton's hot company hasn't come to Boston yet, but we get a peek at the wild Canadian dancemaker who wowed them at Jacob's Pillow (with an erotic duet performed while the woman bit her male partner's tongue) when Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal brings a new Barton work and Rodrigo Pederneiras's Mapa (March 30–April 1). Bebe Miller's Landing Place is a poetic work inspired by her trip to Eritrea and concepts of home and community and augmented by the sophisticated motion-capture and animation projections of Vita Berezina-Blackburn and Maya Ciarrocchi (April 13-15). Even more technology-driven is Cathy Weis'sElectronic Haiku: Calm As Custard (April 28-29), which will play with the full range of the new theater's film-projection and lighting capabilities.
Local dancers and choreographers won't be left on the outside looking in: the stopwatch-driven "Ten's the Limit" comes to the ICA (April 20-21), and Anna Myer, who collaborated so thoughtfully with conductor Susan Davenny Wyner in her All at Once, premieres Penumbra, with a neon set and live music for string instruments by Andy Vores (May 3-5). The season ends with the flourish of a world premiere from Mark Morris — with any luck, a significant improvement over his last premiere here, the dud he tossed off for Boston Ballet. That's May 15-20, preceded by a March 7 conversation between the acid-tongued and quotable Morris and his buddy former Boston Globe classical-music critic Richard Dyer as the new work gets under way. For ICA-event tickets, call 617.478.3103 or visit www.icaboston.org or www.worldmusic.org.
The Celebrity Series may have lost over half a million dollars' worth of Bank of America sponsorship, but that won't disrupt the events that have already been announced. The free, taste-of-everything "Dance Across the City" Day, a joint effort with the Citi Center for the Performing Arts, now covers two days, with workshops and events for dancers and aspiring dancers of all ages on January 5 at the Strand Theatre in Dorchester and January 6 at the Wang Theatre. Dwight Rhoden & Desmond Richardson's Complexions makes its Boston debut at the Tsai Performance Center (February 2-3), and Madrid's sultry Compañía Nacional de Danza 2 dances the works of Spanish phenomenon Nacho Duato at the Shubert Theatre (March 1-2).
