1st International Workshop on Business Models, Business Rules and Ontologies (BuRO 2010)
(workshop co-located with the 4th International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems, RR2010, Bressanone/Brixen, Italy, September 22-24, 2010)
Description of the Workshop
It is a challenge in a business to enable the right people to interact in their own way with the right part of their business application. We distinguish between three views on the business organization: (1) the view of the business analyst using a formal and validated business model; (2) the view of the knowledge engineer via ontologies and rules, and (3) the view of the IT department via an operationalization in applications. We can glue these views together via an end-to-end point solution: (1) conceptualization and where possible acquisition of business models and their transformation into ontologies and rules; (2) their management and maintenance, and (3) the transparent operationalization in IT applications.
The vision at the heart of the Semantic Web is of high relevance in a business setting as well. The proposed workshop addresses the different issues that arise in a business that wishes to have a transparent and where possible and useful a semi-automatic transfer of knowledge present in business documents expressing, e.g., policies, to an IT operationalization. Moreover, the workshop tackles these issues from an holistic perspective, raising awareness for the overall picture, instead of focusing on stand-alone issues. E.g., although OWL is well-investigated it is unclear how business knowledge expressed in SBVR can be mapped to it. Another example is the W3C's RIF effort: although based on well-investigated rule paradigms, it is less well-connected to upper business layers: how to go from a formal business model to RIF rules and how to interact with derived ontologies?
Topics of interest
Suggested topics include the following (but are not limited to):

Adventures of Two Little OWLs in Rule Land
Markus Kroetzsch, Oxford University Computing Laboratory
Abstract: Combining ontological and rule-based modelling can be an onerous task, from the choice of a suitable semantic framework (there are quite a few) to the selection of a chain of tools for supporting it (there are just a few). Typical solutions combine not only the advantages but also the difficulties of both domains, especially regarding computational complexity. For the recently introduced light-weight profiles of OWL 2, however, the situation is remarkably different. Here we find that existing rule-based systems can rather easily be adopted to support ontological inferencing using established algorithmic methods. This is well-known for OWL RL – "RL" is for "Rule Language" after all – but much less so for OWL EL.
Short Bio: Markus Krötzsch is a post-doctoral researcher at the Oxford University Computing Laboratory. He completed his PhD studies at the Institute of Applied Informatics and Formal Description Methods (AIFB) of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in 2010. His research interest is the intelligent automatic processing of information, ranging from the foundations of formal knowledge representation to application areas like the Semantic Web. He is the lead developer of the successful Semantic Web application platform Semantic MediaWiki, co-editor of the W3C OWL 2 specification, chief maintainer of the semanticweb.org community portal, and co-author of the textbook Foundations of Semantic Web Technologies.
Combining Nonmonotonic Knowledge Bases for Modular and Distributed Knowledge-Based Information Systems
Thomas Krennwallner, Vienna University of Technology
Abstract: The developments in information technology during the last decade have been rapidly changing the possibilities for data and knowledge access. To respect this, several declarative knowledge representation formalisms have been extended with the capability to access data and knowledge sources that are external to a knowledge base. Such knowledge sources can come in various forms and may be as simple as a query interface to a database up to a full-fledged knowledge base.
In this talk we present two formalisms that that are centered around Answer Set Programming and have been designed with multiple knowledge bases in mind. One is modular nonmonotonic logic programs (MLP), which take up the issue of combining modules of logic programs into a coherent framework. The other formalism is multi-context systems (MCS), which are concerned with integrating knowledge from heterogeneous and possibly nonmonotonic knowledge bases (the contexts) using bridge rules, and combine them to a system with a semantics for contextual reasoning. We will argue that MLPs have the potential to host other formalisms that are relevant for the Semantic Web, like hybrid languages that combine ontologies and rules. MCS on the other hand are well-suited for distributed scenarios, where we can only assume an interface to contextualized knowledge bases---e.g., description logic or default theories---and do not get access to the actual content of the individual context. Heterogeneous nonmonotonic multi-context systems and modular nonmonotonic logic programs provide a basis for advanced knowledge-based information systems, which are targeted in ongoing research projects. They have been developed by the KBS group of the Vienna University of Technology in cooperation with external colleagues.
This work has been supported by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) projects P20840 & P20841, the EC ICT Integrated Project Ontorule (FP7 231875), and the Vienna Science and Technology Fund (WWTF) project ICT08-020.
Short Bio: Thomas Krennwallner is a project assistant since June 2008 at the Institute of Information Systems at Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), Austria, funded by the EU FP7 project "Ontorule" and the Austrian Science Fund project "Modular HEX-Programs." In 2007 and 2008, he was working as research intern at Digital Enterprise Research Institute Galway, Ireland, in the EU FP6 funded project "inContext." Between 1999 and 2004 he was a software developer in several companies. He has contributed to various software systems, most recently to DLVHEX, DMCS, GiaBATA, and XSPARQL. He is currently pursuing his PhD at the Knowledge-Based Systems Group at TU Wien, where he is developing extensions and algorithms for modular and distributed evaluation of HEX-programs, modular nonmonotonic logic programs, and heterogeneous nonmonotonic multi-context systems. He obtained a master's degree in Computational Intelligence in 2007 and a bachelor's degree in Software and Information Engineering in 2005, both at TU Wien.
Using OWL in Ontology-based data integration
Domenico Lembo, Sapienza Universita of Rome
Abstract: Data integration is the problem of providing a single interface and unified mechanisms to access data stored in several autonomous, possibly heterogeneous, information sources. This is a challenging task in many IT applications, such as enterprise information management and data warehousing, as well as in scenarios like e-science, e-government, and web data management. In the context of the Semantic Web, data integration has been often faced through the adoption of shared conceptualizations of the domain of interest referred to as ontologies, with the aim of posing the semantics of the application domain at the center of the scene. It is therefore interesting to analyze which are the implications of using ontologies in data integration, and in particular of adopting Semantic Web languages, such as OWL, within the traditional architecture for data integration. According to such architecture, a data integration system is composed by a global schema, which represents the interface towards the user, a source schema, which models all the sources to be integrated, and the mapping between the two.
Short Bio: Domenico Lembo is assistant professor at the Department of Computer and System Sciences of the SAPIENZA University of Rome. His research interests concerns mainly information integration, Description Logics, Ontologies and the Semantic Web, inconsistency-tolerance in information systems. He authored more than 50 publications on the above topics in international journals and conferences. He is the author of several tutorials in the areas of data integration, ontologies, and the Semantic Web.
Incorporating regulations, business rules and other texts in the IT
François Lévy, Paris13 University
(involving material and ideas from A. Guissé, A. Nazarenko)
Abstract: Quite a lot of regulations available in texts impact everyday activities and are of interest in IT systems. Applicability of rights or duties to particulars (individuals or companies) is more easily answered with automated analysis of individual cases. Conformance of procedures to the many constraints that apply to organizations can benefit from automation (The conformance of organization procedures can be checked automatically, as soon as the relevant constraints are made explicit and formalized). This is the case for laws and regulations originating from official organizations as well as for internal regulations and business rules used in companies. Nevertheless, there is a critical bottleneck: analyzing regulatory texts to extract rules that the IT system will have to implement is still a challenging task. This is the topic of this talk.
Short Bio: François Lévy is full professor at Paris 13 university since 1993. He has been responsible of the french group ``Natural Language semantics'', working on logical representation of semantic and cognitive phenomena such as events, processes in narratives, and causality. He has also had some activities in default logic and in diagnosis.
The Entity-centric organization
Heiko Stoermer (Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Trento, Italy)
Abstract: Semantic technologies enable a shift from a schema-centric (or data centric) approach to data management in complex organizations to an entity-centric approach, where different data sources are viewed as potential providers of statements about relevant business entities (people, companies, products, locations, events, projects, etc.). We will argue that such a shift may enormously simplify the management of data and in particular their integration and exploration. This claim will be supported by a number of very concrete use cases where we have used this approach to solve very different issues and by showing why the entity-centric approach was better (along different dimensions) with respect to different and more traditional approaches.
Short Bio: Heiko Stoermer works as a researcher in the area of Entity-centric DIKM at Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK-irst), Trento, Italy. After studies in Linguistics he moved to the area of Computer Science, where he holds a German university degree. He gathered industry experience as a software consultant and project manager, and opted for an academic career in 2004 when he received a scholarship at the International Doctorate School in Trento. In 2008, he was awarded with a PhD for his work on Identity and Reference on the Semantic Web. His research interests include information integration, semantic interoperability and contextual knowledge representation. He has (co-) authored a number of scientific publications, acted as a reviewer for important international conferences, is co-organizer of several workshops, and steering committee member of the workshop series on Semantic Web Applications and Perspectives. Currently, he is devoting most of his time to his position as Technical Director of the European large-scale Integrated Project OKKAM, which he co-founded.

I have used Bose QuietComfort 15 noise cancelling headphones when I travel for the past 7 or 8 years or so, and I love them. Despite how comfortable they are to wear, I find they are a bit bulky to transport, so I have started looking at the newer QuietComfort 20i in-ear model. I am curious if anyone here has transitioned from the 15 to the 20, and if so, do you have positive or negative feedback you would be willing to share.
If there is already a thread about this, I would be grateful for a link instead. I found a thread about people looking at alternative cases for their 15s, but I could not find one directly comparing the 2 models...though it is possible I did not use the right search combination.
Thank you!
ETA: My primary use for these headphones is for their noise blocking capabilities. I am not as concerned about having perfect music sound quality.

One of the key fobs for my 2005.5 Jetta has stopped opening/closing the doors. I have replaced the battery and it still doesn't work (but the red LED lights up when buttons are pressed). My spare key fob works fine. It seems that the "bad" fob has lost its programming and needs to be reset. I have tried the procedure printed in the owner's manual (which is very unclear). Also tried about five other procedures mentioned on this forum and elsewhere on the web. I have not been able to get any of them to work or even to give the expected audible horn feedback that some of them describe.
Because I have seen so many different procedures for reprogramming the fob, I am not sure which is correct, if any. Has anyone out there successfully reprogrammed a fob for a Mk V Jetta themselves and if, so, could they explain it step by step. Thanks in advance.

I started the day off with a picturesque run along a country road into the town of Aren, I ran past typical looking French houses and with the Pyrenees in the back ground it was just beautiful. When I got back Rhys was up and about getting all packed up, I had a quick cold shower then we were on the bikes heading for the Pyrenees. Luckily it was a lovely day so we had a magical view of the mountains as we approached them. We filled up just before the mountain pass began then we were straight into it, tight cornering, steep inclines, amazing scenery and slow campervans! When we got to the top of Col d'Aubisque, 1709m, we had a fantastic view down into the valley and of the rocky mountains, it was breath taking. Rhys couldn't stop saying how amazing it was. We had a rest at the top however did not stay for long as we wanted to get in front of all the campervans
We were both hoping Spain had as many camping grounds as France as we did not want to ride for much longer; we were approaching 8hours on the road. Found a camping ground just outside the first town we passed, had to remember to greet them in Spanish and with a lot of sign language we claimed our bed for the night. Had another lovely swim in the pool, cooked dinner then had a lazy night. It was a wonderful day of riding the roads were fantastic and the cornering was fun, bring on some more mountain roads tomorrow.
Post your own travel photos for friends and family More Pictures
Wow, those photos are amazing! Spectacular looking spot! You guys are having such an amzing time : ) I hope Spain is just as good as France has been for you xx
We are loving following your journey. Great photos. Some wonderful stories. Keep it up. Enjoy Spain. xx

Enuresis is the medical name for bedwetting, which is very common in young children and can also be prevalent in older children.
Enuresis monitors are the most commonly recommended course of action for prolonged bedwetting. Designed to trigger an alarm when the child starts to urinate, the child begins to associate the feeling of a full bladder with waking, training them to wake and visit the toilet before its too late.
The Orion bedside monitor is cleverly designed to look and function like an alarm clock, reducing the risk of embarrassment and stigma that often surrounds prolonged bedwetting.
It features a sound and light alarm which is wirelessly triggered within a second of the sensor becoming wet, ensuring quick and effective results.
A seven-day wet/dry history is available on the device at the click of a button and up to a year's history can be downloaded at the enuresis clinic via USB, enabling effective specialist support.
The sensor attaches to the child's nightwear with a simple clamp. It detects urine in milliseconds, wirelessly triggering the alarm in less than a second. The sensor is completely sealed and washable ensuring hygiene and durability. It can be recharged in just a few minutes by placing it in a dock at the back of the Orion monitor.
The Orion Enuresis Monitor is being developed by eg technology Ltd, a leading product design and development consultancy based in Cambridge, UK. Our clients range from small biotechnology start-ups to industry-leading bluechips helping them cost-effectively develop successful products from visualisation to commercialisation. Our multi-disciplinary team offers integrated expertise in mechanical engineering, industrial design, electronics engineering, software development, project management and regulatory approval and certification.

Governor Bob McDonnell visits Bristol
BRISTOL, Va. - Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell makes a stop in Bristol to see a local landmark in-the-making.
The governor took a tour of the future Birthplace of Country Music Museum.
This visit is actually part of a much larger tour across the state called This Commonwealth of Opportunity.
He calls the BCM Museum a great vision for the future, with the public and private sectors working together to preserve 100 years of architecture and musical heritage. "Our top issue of course in Virginia recently has been creating new jobs and opportunities, and I think this will be a magnet for tourism and obviously that means jobs and tax revenue for Bristol and it's exciting," the governor said.
Governor McDonnell's tour of the commonwealth kicked off this afternoon in Salem and Roanoke and will finish in Leesburg next Thursday.

Check out the trailer and poster gallery for The Day, a post-apocalyptic flick starring that dude from Lost. The plot is Mad Max meets Assault on Precinct 13, which in turn of course stole its plot from Rio Bravo. The Western didn't die – their plots just got recycled as B-grade sci-fi flicks!
Release date is August 29th, 2012.
The movie stars Shawn Ashmore, Ashley Bell, Michael Eklund, Cory Hardrict and Dominic Monaghan.
Open war against humanity rages. Five survivors; lost and on the run. The pursuit is relentless, the bullets are dwindling and the battle is everywhere. This is a 24hr look into their lives. Fight or die!

You can borrow e-books from any public library that uses Overdrive.
Take a look at www.overdrive.com to find a library near you.
2. Re: Library? No way.hollygNJ Jan 22, 2011 6:01 AM (in response to IReadaLotFL)
You can borrow from real live libraries- you weren't being lied to. Go to overdrive for a list of libraries that lend.Or go to your local library to see if they have e-books.
If your local library doesn't, a lot of people have joined Philly's library for $15 a year.
So don't go running off to BN ti you check it out!
3. Re: Library? No way.bigreaderinalabama Jan 22, 2011 6:04 AM (in response to IReadaLotFL)
I'm sorry - you just need to look into it a bit more.
Nook will display EPub format which is one commonly used by libraries.
I check out ebooks from my public library (though sometimes the waitlist is long).
It is a bit tricky at first, there are many steps to go through but once you've done it, it's not so bad. Just be sure that your library has an ebook collection (go to their website, or go ask a librarian).
Hope this helps
4. Re: Library? No way.IReadaLotFL Jan 22, 2011 6:14 AM (in response to IReadaLotFL)
Thank you for the replies. Seems I was a bit hasty. I apologize to B&N for my rash post.
5. Re: Library? No way.Ya_Ya Jan 22, 2011 6:33 AM (in response to IReadaLotFL)
The link in my signature explains everything you need to do, step by step, to get a library book from your public library to your NOOK and read it. I received my NOOK as a birthday gift in September. Since I'm unemployed at the moment, I have a lot of time to read. I've read probably 40 public library books, as well as many free ones from B&N and even quite a few that I've bought from B&N. Even a few I've bought from Sony. That's the joy of NOOK (to me!) over Kindle.
The basics are:
You can't download directly from the library to NOOK. You need to download to your PC or Mac, "unlock" the DRM with Adobe Digital Editions, (ADE) and then transfer it to NOOK.
The short version is:
- Download ADE.
- Authorize ADE on your computer.
- Go to library.
- Download an ebook. (Don't save, click open. It should open with ADE.)
- Plug NOOK in.
- ADE recognizes NOOK.
- Authorize NOOK in ADE by following prompts.
- Drag icon of book (in ADE!) onto icon of NOOK (in ADE!)
- "Safely Eject" NOOK
- Tap "Check for New Content" in "My Documents"
- Read.
It sounds a lot more complicated than it is. The downloading of the software and authorizing NOOKs and Computers takes about five minutes. After that the whole process is about a minute per book. I've read at least 30 library books since September.
See the thread linked to in my signature for the exact steps, including the link to download ADE (although all four of the public libraries that I use also link to the software download) and explains the most common problems people have. I never had any, other than thinking it sounded complicated. It's soooo not.

7. Re: Library? No way.elliott-the-nook Jan 22, 2011 11:39 AM (in response to IReadaLotFL)
Actually you can borrow from my "brick and mortar" library. I haven't done it yet, but I have looked over the site. I put myself on a couple of waiting lists...the problem being that they are checked out just like "real" books and only one person can have it at a time.
8. Re: Library? No way.bklvr896 Jan 22, 2011 12:22 PM (in response to IReadaLotFL)
IReadaLotFL wrote:
The point of this story is, the library B&N is referring to is the data storage on your Nook. So clever to name a private database "the library". Not only that, but there is the ridiculous limit of ONE time lend or borrow per book, to or from your Nook "library".
The lending feature limitation is set by the publisher not by B&N. Amazon recently started the lending program and it has exactly the same limitations as on the Nook. Oh, and now, a number of the publishers have pulled their books from the lending program.
As for libraries, one thing to look into is whether or not you can get a library card from neighboring library systems. In CA, where I live, you can get a library card from a number of libraries, regardless of where in the state you live, you just have to pick up the card in person. I currently have 5 library cards, with dramatically increases the number of library books I have access to.

Hi - Yes, you can borrow books from the public library. That was one of the primary reasons I chose the Nook over the Kindle. I have downloaded several books from the public library. Its great. Check to see if your local library has Overdrive. Good luck. I hope you haven't returned the Nook yet.
10. Re: Library? No way.graycyn Jan 27, 2011 3:53 PM (in response to I_love_nookbooks)
When you get set up, borrowing ebooks from the public library is GREAT! No fines, the books return themselves, you can't accidentally damage the ebooks or lose them, there's much to love about borrowing library ebooks! I do it with my Nook all the time.
Oh, if you happen to have too many library "hold" ebooks come in all at once, and no time to read all of them, instead of opening the .acsm file in ADE, do a "save as" and save it to your computer instead. I made a folder called "Library Books" just for this purpose. Then when you *do* have time to read, double-click that little file and it will open ADE and download the book into ADE for you and that's when the clock starts tickin'.
Another tip, if you are having trouble finishing a library ebook before it expires, just DON'T NAVIGATE OUT OF IT! My husband found out that as long as he doesn't leave the book, he can finish it, even if he's taking longer than the actual loan period.
11. Re: Library? No way.marineMS Jan 27, 2011 6:16 PM (in response to IReadaLotFL)
You can borrow books and the latest ones too I have been told. Library of Philadelpha it cost 15 a year for non residents check it out
12. Re: Library? No way.SueJay Jan 28, 2011 6:38 PM (in response to IReadaLotFL)
It is easy to borrow books from the public library and download them onto your NookColor. Yes, there are quite a few current titles, and there is no charge. The only limitation is that you can only borrow each ebook for 14 days. So, go to your public library's website, go to their "Overdrive" link, enter your library card number and voila ...you will be set to go! I have been very impressed with the free new books from my public library. Enjoy!

The Bible
The Holy Bible is the divinely-inspired record of God's revelation of Himself to man. We believe it is a perfect treasure of divine instruction, having God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth-without any mixture of error-for its matter.
The Triune God
There is one and only one living and true God, the Creator, sustainer, and ruler of the universe. He reveals Himself to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or being.
Jesus Christ
The Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, became man without ceasing to be God, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin. He lived a sinless life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of His people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead, ascended into heaven, and will literally return to earth as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is co-equal with God the Father and God the Son. He is the divine helper, counselor, and instructor. He convinces people of their need of Christ, and is the attending agent of salvation. He permanently indwells and empowers every believer, comforting them, guiding them, equipping them for service, and preserving their salvation until they enter heaven.
A person must experience personal salvation to enter into heaven. We believe that salvation is God's free gift to us, obtained by the atoning death of Christ on the cross. We believe that salvation is received through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ alone, and is not a product of our own good works.
Believer's Baptism
Jesus commanded all believers-but only believers-to be baptized by immersion in testimony to their faith. We believe that baptism symbolizes the believer's faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Savior, the believer's death to sin, the burial of the old life, and the resurrection to walk in new life in Christ Jesus. It is a testimony to faith in the final resurrection of the dead. We do not believe baptism is necessary to salvation; but it is necessary as an act of obedience to our Lord. Being an ordinance commanded by our Lord, we believe it is a prerequisite to the privilege of church membership.
The Eternal Security of the Believer
Because God gives us eternal life through Jesus Christ, the true believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. We believe that those who have been genuinely saved cannot "lose" their salvation. We believe that salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not the self-effort of the Christian, and that it is the grace and keeping power of God that gives us this security.
Evangelism & Missions
It is our duty and privilege as individual followers of Jesus Christ and as a church to endeavor to make disciples of all peoples. We believe that this duty is ours both individually and collectively, and that the duty encompasses both a local dimension and a global dimension. We believe it is our duty to do all that we can realistically do-in giving, sending, partnering, praying, going, telling, and more-to see that people throughout the world have an opportunity to be confronted with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The Church
A New Testament church is a local body of baptized believers in the Lord Jesus Christ who are associated by their common faith and fellowship with Jesus. The church is an autonomous body operating under democratic processes under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. We believe that the church membership is to regularly assemble together for worship, fellowship, discipleship, and ministry, and is to cooperate in the effort to spread the gospel of Christ throughout the world.
The Ordinance of The Lord's Supper
The Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience whereby believers, through partaking of the bread and the fruit of the vine, memorialize the death of our Lord. It has no saving efficacy, but it is an ordinance our Lord gave to us to remind us of the price He paid on the cross of Calvary for our forgiveness from sin. We invite any believers in attendance to participate in the Lord's Supper.

Vurdering av denne eiendommen
First we would like to mention the location of the apartment is great, peaceful and yet close to the center. Nonetheless we find the price/quality proportion unfair. Although it is an okay apartment, we found the pictures of the apartment misleading. The apartment is not as good as it looks. For example the couches and the bed were uncomfortable and there are less plants in the apartment than is shown on the pictures. The bathtub is old en therefore difficult to clean.
Our stay was without any complaint. Nice neighborhood, good apartment and excellent and flexible service and correspondence. Thank you.
Perfect - clean, quiet and all what you need, nice rooms. Very good communication with the hirer. Fain again.
Very short ways to the city!

Vi bodde her 1 uke i månedskifte juli/august 2015
Bra leilighet med sentral beliggenhet.Vi kunne gå til de fleste severdigheter. Flott Balkong med fantastisk utsikt til Slottshøyden og Kjedebroen. Leiligheten hadde ikke aircondision, men var likevel sval. Greit bad og kjøkken og brukbar dobbeltseng på hemsen. Badekaret, kjøkkenbenk og dekketøy/bestikk var rent. Også gulv var bra rene.
Ekstremt skittent rundt vasken på badet og ovnen på kjøkkenet, kontakter, hyller og lister. Her er det rom for forbedring. Det trekker mye ned for en ellers OK leilighet.

Hilsen Per Olaf
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Fantastic location. Very small elevator. We are travelling with a baby and had to take the wheels of the stroller when going in to the elevator. Lovely staff who provided both a highchair and a bathtub for babies. Fantastic. The gas stove was a little tricky to get going and the water heater has a life of its own (you never know when to expect high or low temperatures when showering). One bwd is really good the other is not as nice but not a big problem if you are staying for a short time.Would stay here again without a doubt.
We stayed for 2 weeks. Fast service and the host also answered emails fast. Really a great flat and location, although the toilet door is a thin wardrobe door which is hard to close.
The house was nice and clean. All necessary things were provided. It is in a comfortable central area of the city, perfect for group of friends. The owner was very friendly and cordial.
The only disadvantage is the gas water heater is placed too close to the passing area with open fire that can be dangerous.
clean appartment in center of Budapest.

Removing the Parenthesis
I propose to remove the parenthesis of the explanations below the "Learn, Volunteer, Join" catchwords. It makes the sentences hard to read, especially when they are displayed on two lines and compressed on the front page. They are a subtitle that gives a meaning to the words and cannot be removed without loosing important information. --Abrs 04:11, 2 June 2006 (EDT)

eBay Accounts Stolen by Botnet
Identity thieves are targeting the accounts of eBay, an online auction Website. Thieves are exerting a botnet, which forcefully unveils the log-in information of account, reported a security company based in Tel Aviv on September 3, 2007.
The theft has been taking place since past one week to pilfer the personal financial data, as reported by the officials at Aladdin Knowledge Systems. Also, the new botnet was found out on 3rd September 2007 by the security firm, reported eWEEK.com on September 4, 2007.
According to Aladdin, a so-called "sophisticated" Trojan is being planted by botnet on the systems of the users visiting hacked Websites. About 300 famous Websites are attacked according to the security firm. It compels the users to visit the affected sites. Aladdin, based in Israel, mainly focused on popular sites in Israel. A main site of the largest Israeli labor union and a famous e-commerce site for price comparison are amongst the affected site.
The product manager of Aladdin's eSafe threat-protection line, Ofer Elzam, stated that the brute-force attacks are done through large botnet that are built by identity thieves with the help of a sophisticated, multistage campaign beginning with compromised legitimate Websites, reported PC World on September 4, 2007.
The resultant botnet is being employed for calling an eBay API (Application Programming Interface) with possible passwords and usernames pairing. The Trojan-nfected PC - the bot - is allowed by API, which helps in communicating with the database of eBay with the help of XML-formatted code. The Trojan notes would transmit it to a server controlled by the hacker if the database consists of the password-username pair.
Elzam also added that as less as six username-password pairs might be used by each bot to avoid the eBay security radar. Also, that eBay might not even know about the attack as the attack appears to be confirmations from merchants to buyers.
The malware attacks though are nothing new, but they seem to have hiked up tremendously in this year. For instance, around 10,000 Websites were launched with massive bot-building attack, where majority of them had been put up in Italy in June 2007.

text: Lawyers for a Winthrop man convicted of burning down a topless coffee shop in Vassalboro have asked for a new trial. Raymond Bellavance Junior's attorney listed several reasons for a new trial in a hearing in Kennebec County Court on Wednesday, including the arrest of a state's witness four days after the verdict. Assistant District Attorney Alan Kelley tells us all of the issues other than the witness's arrest were litigated during the trial. He says since the arrest happened after the trial, it isn't grounds for a new one. Prosecutors say 50-year-old Bellavance torched the Grandview Topless Coffee Shop in 2009 because he was angry his former girlfriend was working there. The judge is expected to rule on the motion by the end of the month. Sentencing has been pushed back until March for now.

ReStore to occupy former Troegs building in Harrisburg
The former Troegs Brewery building at 800 Paxton St. in Harrisburg soon will have new life as a ReStore, according to Habitat for Humanity of the Greater Harrisburg Area.
Habitat said it has signed a lease for the building across from Pennsy Supply and plans to have it in operation in 60 days.
"We are so thrilled being able to sign a lease for the ReStore and really excited about the location," Eve Wachhaus, Habitat's executive director, said in a news release. "We needed a spot which would be accessible to both the East and West shores. This spot also provides us with the space we need for the store as well as an abundance of parking spaces. Now, we will work as hard as we can to get the store open."
Most volunteer groups working with Habitat will be directed to assist in preparing the new ReStore over the next few months. Power washing of the facility is already underway, a news release said, and items that eventually will be offered for sale have begun to arrive at the location.
The ReStore, a separate business entity that supports the mission of Habitat, will sell overstocked, discontinued, new and used building materials donated by manufacturers, stores, contractors and individuals. The store's proceeds will go toward expanding the capabilities of Habitat's new home builds and critical home repair programs. There are more than 500 Habitat ReStores operating in the United States and Canada.
The local Habitat's goal is to eliminate poverty in Central Pennsylvania through new builds, rehabs and critical home repairs. More than 220 families have been helped since the local affiliate was founded in 1986, and all funds raised stay in the area.

Pros / This application will notify you if the phone moves out of the designated safe area through its GPS feature. StealthGenie tracks the multimedia on the phone in addition to its other monitoring features.
Cons / This phone tracker can't block access to websites or keep someone from downloading apps on the phone.
Verdict / Although this phone monitoring software lacks some features, it still effectively monitors phones.
Editor's Note: This product has been removed from our side-by-side comparison because it has been discontinued. You can still read our original review below, but Top Ten Reviews is no longer updating this product's information.
StealthGenie effectively keeps track of the activities on iPhone, Android and BlackBerry smartphones. It tracks call logs, text messages, emails, the location of the phone, pictures and videos, music files, the address book, internet activity, internet bookmarks and calendar events. This phone monitoring software shows you calendar events and voice memos. If your child or employee chats using iMessage, WhatsApp, Google Talk or BlackBerry Messenger, you can view the conversations as well.
In addition to monitoring what happens on the phone, you can also track where the phone is. This phone tracker stores the longitude and latitude coordinates of the phone. It also shows a marker on a map so that you can quickly determine where the phone is. You can even mark restricted and safe areas on the map. If your child or employee goes to an area that's restricted, you'll receive a notification.
StealthGenie runs in stealth mode, which means it runs silently in the background so that the user can't tell it's there. This mobile phone tracker can record audio with the phones microphone, even when the person you're monitoring isn't using the phone. However, this feature is likely to get you into hot water legally, so be sure you understand the law before you bug someone's phone.
Unfortunately, this mobile phone tracker can't block access to websites or keep users from installing apps on the phone. You can't use it to set time restrictions on use either. However, StealthGenie does alert you if someone performs a search using certain keywords. Additionally, StealthGenie stores all information sent to or stored on the phone, even if your child deletes it from the phone's internal storage.
If someone steals your phone or if it gets lost, you can remotely lock or wipe the device so that personal information won't get into the wrong hands. StealthGenie will also notify you if someone removes or replaces the SIM card.
StealthGenie displays FAQs and a live demo on its website. The live demo provides the same interface as you'll have in an actual account. You can view call logs, email, texts, photos and more. You can also find a customer support email address on the website.
StealthGenie will monitor text messages, emails, phone calls, multimedia and more. It also tracks where the phone goes, both online and geographically. StealthGenie lacks some blocking features, but it still provides many effective phone tracking features.

I signed up with these folks two months ago, I came on here to rip off report didnt see anybody complaining so I went on with it. I figured since they "guarentee" a full refund, it was "ok". NOW there are pages of complaints.
anyway, I knew it could take awhile but I decided to just get out and get my money back..ya right! The only way to get in touch with them is to fill out some email reply box, I sent a dozen and surprise surprise never got a response back! I cancelled my Credit card I used for them but I will never see that 40.00 I originally agreed to pay. WHATEVER YOU DO DO NOT SIGN UP WITH THEM

SUBMITTED: Wednesday, October 21, 2009POSTED: Wednesday, October 21, 2009
I went through the same exact situation. First, I came to ripoffreport to search for VMC Satellite Affilite and I found nothing so I joined. They said 60 day money back guarantee which is why I did it. I joined Sept. 29, 2009 and a fewww days later I checked my website to see if I had any sales. Absolutely nothing! Then I waited a few weeks...Still nothing! Then, I came back to ripoffreport and searched VMC Satellite. That's when I found all these complaints. I was so pissed I decided to send them an e-mail to request a refund. However, they set up the webpage so that if you comment on anything it would appear as if there were technical difficulties with the page. Next, I wrote a letter informing them that I would take legal action if they did not refund me. That is when I received a response letter informing me on how to get my refund. Now I am telling you the same. Go to www.mydishbiz.com or www.mydishprofit.com and click on the link at the bottom of the home page that says contct us.
PLEASE NOTICE THEY WILL ONLY GIVE A REFUND TO THOSE THAT PAID ELECTRONICALLY! (Ex. credit card, debit card, paypal acct, etc) They will not give refunds if you paid by MO, PAPER CHECK, CASH!!
Next, inFORM them that you want to request a refund and cancellation. And Include your full name, clickbank receipt number.
I hope this helps. I just received my refund yesterday.

Free personalized radio that
plays the music you love
Juliette Greco
In the later years of the war, the literary and artistic world of the Left Bank was flourishing, and Gréco became a fixture in this world, befriending Sartre and other writers of renown, and appearing in the theater and on a literary radio show. Her experiences of hardship in the war had influenced her politics and sowed the seeds for the great liberation she flaunted after the war, becoming the pinup for the so-called bohemian scene.
Gréco made an acclaimed debut as a singer in 1949, premiering songs with the words of such leading French poets as Jacques Prévert ("Les Feuilles Mortes"), Jules Laforgue ("L'Eternel Féminin"), and Raymond Queneau ("Si Tu T'Imagines") set to music by Joseph Kosma. In the new postwar songs, lyrics were privileged over the bigger orchestrations favored by singers like Edith Piaf; Gréco's intellectual bent made her the perfect interpreter for this new movement. Her singing style shared the dramatic enunciation of Jacques Brel and the droll delivery of Georges Brassens, her contemporaries in quite different musical scenes, while showcasing a sensuality all her own. Gréco released the song "Je Suis Qui Je Suis," again with words by Prévert and music by Kosma, two years later -- it was a huge hit for her.
Having toured Brazil and the United States, Gréco returned to Paris in 1954 to triumph at the Olympia hall with the song "Je Hais les Dimanches," written by a young Charles Aznavour. Devoting most of the rest of the decade to a successful film career in the United States, Gréco returned to Paris in 1959 and began a second phase of her musical career as the patron of a new French generation of songwriters in the early '60s. She collaborated with artists like Serge Gainsbourg, who wrote "La Javanaise" for her, as well as Léo Ferré and Guy Béart. In 1968, now massively famous from high-profile television appearances and her earlier recordings, she released her song "Deshabillez-Moi," which was an openly sexual piece and marked a change from the intellectual, literary slant she had always put on her songs.
After a slight stalling of her recording career in the early '70s due to trouble with record companies, Gréco embarked on a third stage in her career in 1975, collaborating closely with Gérard Jouannest, the former pianist for Jacques Brel, who set many of the texts written for her to music henceforth. She married him in 1989. Further releases in the '80s ("Gréco '83") and '90s (the beautiful "Juliette Gréco") saw her experimenting still, as well as promoting new songwriters like Etienne Roda-Gil and Caetano Veloso. She released "Un Jour d'Été et Quelques Nuits" in 1998, and in 2004 her album Aimez-Vous les Uns les Autres ou Bien Disparaissez was a true return to form, featuring collaborations with young artists Miossec and Benjamin Biolay. The album Le Temps d'une Chanson was released in 2006, and Qu'on Est Bien: La Valse Brune arrived two years later. ~ Caspar Salmon

Date of Stay: June, 2011
If you are interested in visiting the fresh water springs, then this is a great and inexpensive campground for you. The restrooms are only a few years old and are well maintained by the campground host. The campsites are large and back up to wooded areas where deer come grazing at dust. High Springs is a quaint town and with antique shopping and a great restaurant (Great Outdoors Trading Company). Just be on the watch for ticks, which were no problem for us. We camped in site 27 with a very large oak tree in the rear of the site. Magnolia loop is the best loop for larger campers. Could be a bit tight trying to navigate this loop in the dark.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
Wonderful place to stay, offers activities at the beach and in historical St. Augustine. Great for bike riding, especially at low tide on Conch Island which is a 8 mile round trip. We hardly saw another soul during our ride! The last two loops (sites 71-105) are best suited for larger campers. We stayed in site 41. We rated this a 9 due to the extreme dry conditions which added to the dusty environmental on the sandy site.

This was a great time to do this with the kids because it's a time where they're picking courses for high school and if they're interested in healthcare careers they need to pick a specific course load throughout their high school career."About 50 teens from Penobscot County are taking part in the week-long Camp Survivor.The teens are being exposed to all facets of healthcare." Physical therapy is what I wanted to do originally but the NICU thing kind of inspired me."The camp is teaching the teens plenty of new information."It gives you a wider view of different jobs. There are some jobs here I never even thought of. I didn't even know they had an ambulance specially for babies."This is the first year Eastern Maine Community College has put on a camp like this.It's modeled after the Aroostook Medical Center Camp, that has been taking place for eight years." It's fun. You're not just learning things, you're actually doing fun things."Some of the teens have known what they wanted to do for awhile.For one camper, it's a pharmacist.And the camp seemed like the perfect fit." You have to go to 8 years of college. I have to study a lot harder and at the end of college I have to write a big report."The campers are now closer to choosing their career path and confident they're making the right choice.

Ear to the Ground
WNYC's Janaya Williams shines her highly arbitrary spotlight on some of this weekend's happenings.
- The 10th National Black Writers Conference at Medgar Evars College in Brooklyn runs through Sunday. Bookworms will battle it out over issues and trends in literature produced by black writers in the US, as well as abroad. Director Brenda Green believes the conference is a sign of a changing literary canon. Emerging authors will mix it up with some of the field's brightest stars, including poet Sonia Sanchez and writers Kamau Brathwaite, Edwidge Danticat, and James McBride. Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison will receive a Lifetime Achievement Award on Saturday.
- The Bronx Museum hosts an all-day event on Sunday called "Stand Up for Civil Rights." Iconic photographs of the Civil Rights Movement as well as contemporary art from artists born after 1968 will be on display along with gospel music, step dancing and a recitation of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech by community children. Check out images from the exhibit below.
- Film and video artists from all over the Jewish world submitted short films reflecting on the Haggadah, the book of prayers, songs and rituals that are the narrative basis for the traditional Passover seder. The shorts, collected under the title "Projecting Freedom", will be screened once more April 1 at the Jewish Community Center. They're also available in their entirety online. And viewers can submit their own video interpretations of Haggadah.
- Industrial designer Bill Moggridge takes the helm of the Smithsonian's Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum this week. Moggridge, who is most famous for designing one of the first laptop computers, said he appreciates Cooper-Hewitt's comprehensive perspective on design. He feels the Cooper-Hewitt could be an ideal laboratory for exploring "design thinking," or using design processes to solve complicated problems, like government corruption or water resources in the developing world. His work is featured in an exhibit at the Cooper-Hewitt called "Design USA" until April 4.

I am having my silicone breast implants removed and having the fat transfer at the same time. I was wondering If I could use the Brava device with the implants in before my surgery and afterwards with the implants removed to help with the new fat?
Can the Brava Device Be Worn the Weeks Right Before and Right After Breast Implant Removal with Fat Transfer?
Doctor Answers 3
Using Brava Device
Thank you for your question. This will be a decision that has to be made by your surgeon as they will know what has been transferred, the details of quantity, etc. They will have to make the call. I hope this helps.
Using BRAVA Before and After Fat Grafting
Absolutely, please use the BRAVA before your fat grafting procedure. I strongly, strongly encourage my patients to use BRAVA with fat grafting. It acts as a tissue expander giving the surgeon the ability to put more fat into the breasts. I am a hugh fan of this method. Good luck with your procedure!
Can the Brava Device Be Worn the Weeks Right Before and Right After Breast Implant Removal with Fat Transfer?
That is the appropriate use of that device. Discuss timing with your surgeon.Best wishes for a nice outcome.

NCAA Tournament: Regional Page | Bracket
Site: Tempe, Ariz. (Farrington Stadium)
Event: NCAA Regional (Day 2)
Score: #4 Arizona State 4, #13 Michigan 1
Records: U-M (43-13, 18-5 B1G), ASU (46-10-1)
Next U-M Event: Saturday, May 17 -- vs. San Diego State (Tempe, Ariz.), 8 p.m. PDT/MST { TV: ESPNU ]
TEMPE, Ariz. -- The No. 13-ranked University of Michigan softball team yielded four fourth-inning runs to the No. 4-ranked Arizona State Sun Devils in a 4-1 loss Saturday (May 17) in the winner's bracket of the NCAA Regional at Farrington Stadium.
The Wolverines will now play an elimination game against San Diego State tonight (Saturday, May 17) at 8 p.m. PT/MST on ESPNU.
Starting pitcher Haylie Wagner (Orange, Calif./El Modena) limited the Sun Devils to two hits through the first three innings -- including one that was a bunt single. She faced just one over the minimum through three thanks to a sure-handed 5-4-3 double play started by freshman Lindsay Montemarano (Seaford, N.Y./Seaford).
But the fourth was Michigan's undoing. Wagner hit the leadoff batter, and she then gave up a single; a Michigan error scored Arizona State's first run with one out. The southpaw struck out ASU's Bethany Kemp for the second out of the inning. Two pitches later, Chelsea Gonzales hit a line drive home run to center that gave ASU a 4-1 lead.
Michigan's offense looked poised for a big night when the first three hitters reached on singles. Sophomore Sierra Romero (Murrieta, Calif./Vista Murrieta) muscled a pitched that jammed her into left field to score leadoff hitter Lyndsay Doyle (Channahon, Ill./Minooka Community).
After the first, the Maize and Blue bats fell silent, save for a Caitlin Blanchard (Petersburg, Mich./Summerfield) single in the sixth.
Michigan is now 70-13 all-time in the NCAA Regional round.
The Wolverines have split their 22 games with Arizona State 11-11.
Sierra Romero extended her reached-base streak to 38 games.
Michigan Head Coach Carol Hutchins
Opening statement ... "Good game by Arizona State. Congrats to them. I thought we knew coming in; we know Dallas (Escobedo) is a great pitcher and that they're a great team. The only way you're going to beat them is by attacking them, every pitch of the game. And I thought we came out attacking. And I didn't think we did it after the first inning very well. We did not attack. We did not attack the hitable pitches. You know, our defense kept us in the game, but they took advantage of a leadoff free pass, you know, the wheels fell off a bit, and we threw a pitch over the middle of the plate. And that's the game, it was one inning. We had one good inning. They had one good inning."
On what adjustments Dallas Escobedo made after the first inning ... "I think the first inning is a good time to get after a pitcher, everybody is settling into the game, but she certainly adjusted. But again, I think, I always certainly can look at the view from our viewpoint, where what I think we can do, and I thought when she [Escobedo] brought it over the plate we needed to get after it."
U-M Sophomore Shortstop Sierra Romero
On Dallas Escobedo's performance ... "She's a great pitcher; she hits her sports, and that's really it. She's a good pitcher, and she competes."
On her RBI single ... "I was just going to my half-swing. I recognized it was an inside pitch. I knew I had to get my hands extended to it, and I was able to get it into the outfield."
U-M Junior Pitcher Haylie Wagner
On moving forward after into the next game ... "(We need to) keep fighting, keep attacking; we are still in the tournament right now, and that's all that matters, and I trust my team and I believe in my team. And I know we are going to come out next game and attack."

Nebraska Turkey Population Growing
A recent rural mail carrier survey revealed good news for Nebraska turkey hunters: evidence of an expanding population. The statewide population index for turkey increased 28 percent over last year, according to the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission.
The news comes at a time when hunters may take advantage, as the turkey hunting seasons continue through May 31.
The turkey population index in the Panhandle and central regions increased about 50 percent each and the northeast increased more than 30 percent compared to 2008. Only the Sandhills, southwest and southeast regions saw declines from last year. Overall, the statewide turkey population is at a record high with populations nearly 500 percent higher than in 2002.
Survey results show a pheasant population index increase of 32 percent over last year, indicating that the pheasant population likely has survived the winter well. The results should bode well for production, assuming that spring weather is favorable. Only the northeast region showed a decline over 2008.
Results were similar for northern bobwhite. Statewide, the population index was 20 percent higher over 2008, with the only decline in the northeast region.
The survey, run each year in early April, July, and October, collects wildlife observations from more than 500 rural mail carriers as they travel more than 200,000 miles of rural roads across the state. The percentages reported from the survey show changes in the numbers of various wildlife species observed from year to years, not necessarily changes in the actual population size.
The rural mail carrier survey is one of the oldest wildlife surveys conducted by the Commission, existing in some form or another since 1944.

The sexy actress debuted a new hair color and stunned in a very sexy Michael Kors dress — and we loved it! Did you? VOTE!
Naya Rivera looked fantastic on the red carpet at the 2014 People's Choice Awards on Jan. 8, where the 26-year-old star debuted her new blonde 'do — and she rocked a seriously sultry dress! Regardless of what she wears she always exudes major confidence and easily pulls off whatever she decides to don!
Naya Rivera's Dress People's Choice Awards 2014 — See Her Sexy Look:
The Glee gal opted for a dress that was sexy yet simplistic. The long-sleeved ensemble featured varying panels, from nude to white to black, with a high-low hemline. While the dress fell above her knees, revealing her legs, in the back it hung down with a train. The silhouette was balanced out by the demure neckline. Although the dress definitely was a bit more demure from Naya, she still oozed sexiness on the red carpet — and I love the way her style is oh-so-versatile!
She paired the ensemble with white, ankle-strap sandals and a gold necklace. Aside from that, she kept the focus on her new locks as she sported a nude lip and luscious eye lashes. A dark manicure and matching pedicure finished off the red carpet get-up.
I never get tired of seeing Naya on the red carpet — and her latest look is no different. What do you think? Was her demure dress a nice, different change or was it rather boring on the sultry star? VOTE and be sure to comment below.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
Here's a little something to noodle on while I'm lounging in my easy chair trying to solve this week's Saturday Stumper crossword puzzle. First, you need to click here and go read a post by Matt Yglesias. I'll wait.
You didn't read it, did you? Fine. I know you're busy, so here's the nickel summary. Matt is talking about the distribution of income in America, and he makes the point that modern capitalism is fundamentally based on a set of fairly complex rules created by humans. There's no natural, "default" distribution of income, it all depends on what rules we agree on:
It takes an awful lot of politics to get an advanced capitalist economy up and running and generating wealth....You go through the trouble of creating advanced industrial capitalism because that's a good way to create a lot of goods and services. But the creation of goods and services would be pointless unless it served the larger cause of human welfare. Collecting taxes and giving stuff to people is every bit as much a part of advancing that cause as creating the set of institutions that allows for the wealth-creation in the first place.
The specifics of how best to do this all are (to say the least) contentious and not amenable to resolution by blog-length noodling. But the intuition that there's some coherent account of what the "market distribution" would be absent public policy is mistaken. You have policy choices all the way down.
Matt's argument is a common one, and I've seen it made dozens of times in various ways. What's more, it's an argument with a lot of force. It really is true that income distribution depends on the rules of the game, and it can favor the rich or the poor depending on who sets up the rules. There are practical limits to how much you can muck with the rules and keep your economy humming along, but within these limits there's nothing inherently natural about one set of rules vs. another.
So here's the thing to noodle on. Despite having seen this argument made dozens of times, and despite its obvious force, I've never really seen it made in a way that's very persuasive at a gut level. Conservatives have done a very good job of convincing the public that rules which favor the rich really are the most natural ones, and you fiddle with them at your peril. Liberals, conversely, haven't done a very good job of convincing the public that a different, less business and wealth-centric set of rules, would be equally natural, and would benefit more people.
Why is that? It's one thing to acknowledge that changing the rules is hard because rich people have a lot of political power and don't want to see them changed. But that hardly even matters until you can make the egalitarian economic argument in a way that's convincing to the public in the first place. That's apparently very hard to do, but I'm not quite sure why. Guesses welcome in comments.

Hayes Optima V.Fc & V.34
Hayes OPTIMA 288 V.FC + FAX
The OPTIMA 288 V.FC + FAX performs almost identically to the ProClass 288LCD V.34 in NSTL's throughput tests. This modem has everything people have come to expect in a Hayes modem, such as a long features list and a standard front panel. The OPTIMA is a solid performer in all aspects of testing, and the Hayes name, to many, still represents the industry standard for modems.
Hayes OPTIMA 288 V.34 + FAX
The OPTIMA 288 V.34 + FAX (picture) places just behind its V.FC-based cousin, the OPTIMA 288 V.FC + FAX. The OPTIMA V.34 actually holds a performance edge, yet average features, interoperability, and two-way performance scores hold this modem back from an even higher ranking. However, most users utilize their modems for one-way file transfers, and the OPTIMA V.34 ties for the best one-way throughput.

It's a 98 DeVille D'Elegance with a Northstar 4.6L with app 150,000 miles. This car has run fine for quite awhile. About 2 months ago it over-heated while climbing a pretty stout hill on a very hot (90+) summer day.
Since then, I've tried everything I know of to try to get this thing to NOT over-heat. Here are the symptoms: Will run fine for several miles, temp will vascilate between 196 to 212 without any problem. Suddenly the temp will start to climb and will continue upward (often pretty hastily) until either it shuts itself down at around 260 or I shut it off. I've replaced the thermostat twice, replaced the water pump. Flushed the whole system out twice, refilled with 50/50 mix of coolant, have checked the purge valve, have added BarsLeak Pellets. Fans work. A/C works. Heater works. Temp sensor seems to work since when it says the coolant temp is HOT it obviously is. Have also replace the purge tank pressurized cap. The hoses all appear fine, no signs of collapse. No leaks visible. Have considered the idea of a air pocket and have run wide open with the heater on full blast.
I have a ton of experience working on engines and never in my life have encountered a system such as this that will work fine (sometimes for days in a row) then suddenly and without warning overheat.
Any brilliant ideas?

TDC2 winner Darka is a fine achievement — not only for its crisp tension and accomplished nuances, but also for its sheer inventiveness. Blackletter fonts have been revived periodically in past years, but Martinez Meave seems too enamored of the spirit of blackletter to create a mere copy of an historical design.
Instead, he has thrown the revivalists' rules out the window and, operating from what is obviously a firm understanding of blackletter forms, has created a hybrid which combines elements of gothic cursives, frakturs (uppercase and ascenders) and French lettre bâtardes (lowercase) with a hint of the Spanish-influenced Rotundas thrown in for good measure. Purists may wrinkle their noses at it, but I find it an attractive and accomplished example of what someone can create from an understanding — and not mere appropriation — of historical forms. — Mark Jamra

A 6-year-old girl suspected of being in the U.S. illegally was arrested by the office of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Arizona on Friday. Ironically, the arrest came just after President Obama announced he would make it easier for the children of undocumented immigrants to stay in this country.
Of Obama's new policy, Arpaio said, "I suspect that this is politics to get the Hispanic vote."
—Posted by Tracy Bloom
The Huffington Post:
The arrests came Friday night, the same day that Obama announced his administration would not deport young undocumented immigrants under certain circumstances.
Last week, Arpaio told ABC15 that his office still plans to arrest undocumented immigrants with the same fervor that has made him a nationally known law enforcement figure.
"I think people from Mexico are now going to feel, 'Hey come on in and we'll get by with it.' But it won't happen in this county. They will still be arrested," Arpaio said.

I haven't been to an Aquarium in years! The NOLA Aquarium isn't bad at all…
…they've got some pretty impressive creatures…
…and random ones too (that celebrate X-mas, apparently)
Our niece gave it an excellent review.
Since she has an early bedtime (and subsequently, an early dinnertime), Abe and I veered off on our own for a later supper.
The Camellia Grill was a perfect choice, since it's not really a good place for groups (or babies)
We grabbed one of the few seats left, with a perfect view of all the action!
See that gallon of yellow stuff on the counter? That would be Butter-It, a.k.a. liquid "butter."
We watched them pour it over nearly every single thing that touched the griddle!
Above is Abe's omelet being made, and below is my pecan waffle…
…here she is, in all her golden glory!
(Love that they use cloth napkins.)
Condiment Central
1/4 was covered in maple syrup (the real kind)
And the other half was smothered in Strawberry Jam
The waffle was thin, with crunchy bits of pecan baked in. Nutty awesomeness. The remaining 1/4 was traded for Abe's dinner –
A mushroom and cheese omelet and french fries – washed down with a Barq's Red Cream (<— the only thing that was NOT good)
My portion…
…with dips…
…hey, wait a second – that's not mustard…
…you really CAN'T escape that pourable butter here!
Can I just say HOW MUCH I loved this place? Not only was the food yummy (Abe's omelet was incredibly light and fluffy – probably one of the best ones I've ever eaten) but the staff had so much personality. I wanted to hug every single person behind the counter.
Below is my boy Brandon, who saw me sucking on a Caramel Apple Tootsie and asked if he could have it! Didn't have an extra on me, so I gave him another lollipop, with the promise I would try to stop by next week with his flavor of choice….
…ha – as if I need another excuse to stop by!!!
