I was not entirely pleased with the condition of the room but it served its purpose for an overnight stay. Was appreciative of the free wi-fi, fridge and microwave.

Pros: Absolutely nothing
Cons: Absolutely everything
I booked this room on the mystery hotel room and will never do that again. This place was rated a 2 1/2 star and should have been a 1. It was dirty, dust all over the air conditioner, stains on the towels. I could not even bring myself to have a shower. They need to paint and update the rooms.

Over Priced but Good BedsPosted Jul 29, 2015 on Hotels
Beds were great and very comfortable but linens were lacking and in poor shape. In all fairness Motel is older vintage but price is not reflected. Breakfast was virtually not there as for space did not allow a 7'X 3' doubling as Lobby.

All of our clothes smelled of cigarette smokePosted Jul 14, 2011
The main dissatisfier here was the fact that when we got home, we noticed that all of our clothes smelled like stale cigarette smoke. Bear in mind that my woman and I do not smoke. We feel that having the air conditioner on is what probably made the clothes smell. Other than that, for the money it was worth it.

I'm not sure why you didn't notice the smell of cigarettes while you were in the room, but I do wish you had and that you'd pointed this out to me so that we could have sprayed some odor eliminator. Please note that our policy prohibits anyone from smoking inside of our rooms, as we try very hard to keep up with the laws Michigan has about smoking in public places. However, some people absolutely refuse to follow these laws and sadly they'll often choose a smaller mom and pop style motel to stay in hoping they can get away with it. If caught, we do enforce a $25 cleaning fee to get rid of this odor, but people are quick to get defensive and will deny having smoked. In the end all we can rely on is good folks like yourself to bring things of this delicate nature to our attention so that we can handle them.

I'm very sorry you weren't happy with your stay. We charge a modest fee for modest amenities. It's our humble belief that what we provide is on par or above others in this price range and in fact we pride ourselves in going above and beyond what most people expect in this price range.

Phase One: Retain
Telesco's biggest accomplishment was retaining San Diego's three priority free agents: Donald Butler, Chad Rinehart and Darrell Stuckey.
Butler comes off an injury-plagued season, but when healthy, he is an impact player with Pro Bowl potential. He and Manti Te'o give the team a pair of dynamic 'backers that should continue to grow together. Rinehart returns to his starting position at right guard, ensuring the entire offensive line returns intact. Stuckey, a captain on special teams, comes back to guarantee there won't be any third-phase slippage.
Telesco also brought back CB Richard Marshall, who started San Diego's final seven contests (including the playoffs). The Chargers went 5-2 in that stretch. Key reserves Reggie Walker (three sacks) and Seyi Ajirotutu (15 special teams stops, game-winning catch in Kansas City) were also brought back into the fold.
The Chargers did not lose a single player they truly hoped to retain.
Phase Two: Restructure
OLB Dwight Freeney
David Banks/USA TODAY Sports
Eddie Royal also restructured his contract, which was great news for Philip Rivers. Royal caught 47 passes for 631 yards and a career-high eight touchdowns last season despite battling a debilitating toe injury for most of the season.
Phase Three: Replenish
Almost every player the Chargers lost was replaced via free agency.
Derek Cox, who fell out of the rotation in November, will be replaced by former Cincinnati Bengals third-rounder Brandon Ghee. Also on defense, Kavell Conner follows the slew of former Indianapolis Colts migrating to San Diego, taking the place of backup ILB Bront Bird.
On offense, FB/TE David Johnson fills in for cap-casualty Le'Ron McClain. And Kellen Clemens inherits Charlie Whitehurst's coveted role as the player no one wants to see after August.
Phase Four: Fortify
The one clear upgrade the Chargers made in free agency was replacing third-string running back Ronnie Brown with former Colt Donald Brown.
Donald Brown comes off a season in which he averaged 5.3 yards per carry, caught 27 passes and scored eight total touchdowns. He gives the Chargers an every-down option behind Ryan Mathews, who was rejuvenated under Mike McCoy but struggles to avoid nagging injuries.
With the BMW backfield (Brown, Mathews and Woodhead) the Chargers will be able to lean on the ground game more than ever before. That should come in especially handy during the two (or three) matchups with the Denver Broncos, games where the time of possession is paramount.
Phase Five: Forthcoming
With the exception of upgrading the running back position with Donald Brown, the offseason has really been about maintaing the status quo. The roster, as it stands, is very similar to the one that ended the 2013 season on a hot streak.
Does that mean Telesco is satisfied with the team's overall talent level? Hardly. Instead, he wants to maintain in free agency and improve via the NFL Draft.
In his first draft at the wheel in San Diego, Telesco plucked two dominant starters (D.J. Fluker and Keenan Allen), one capable starter who figures to keep getting better (Te'o) and a solid rotational piece in Tourek Williams. And that does not even account for fifth-round selection Steve Williams, who missed his rookie season with a pectoral injury but figures to be thrown into the mix in 2014.
If Telesco fares as well in his second draft, the Chargers will be in excellent shape.
Which draft prospects are in Telesco's crosshairs? Stay tuned. Your Scout.com experts have a new three-round mock draft set to debut later this week.
Do the Chargers still need more pass-rush help? Discuss in the message boards.

Astros can't overcome Indians, bugs in 6-5 loss
Carlos Carrasco overcame a home run and an apparent bug in his eye to pitch into the eighth inning, and the Cleveland Indians defeated the Houston Astros 6-5 on Wednesday night.
The game-time temperature was 87 degrees, causing swarms of midges to journey from Lake Erie to the muggy ballpark.
Carrasco (11-7) allowed Colby Rasmus' two-run homer in the fourth, one batter after the game was stopped briefly when one of the bugs appeared to get in his eye.
The right-hander regrouped after the home run, allowing four runs in 7 1/3 innings.
Mike Napoli's two-run homer off Doug Fister (12-11) gave Cleveland a 4-3 lead in the fifth. Pinch-hitter Brandon Guyer added a two-run double in the inning and the Indians extended their lead over Detroit to 5 1/2 games in the AL Central.
Cody Allen gave up a leadoff single in the ninth, but struck out the next three batters, including Jose Altuve -- the AL's leading hitter -- to earn his 25th save.
The loss cost Houston a chance to gain ground in the AL wild card race. The Astros still trail Baltimore by two games.
Carrasco threw a first-pitch ball to Yuli Gurriel in the fifth and then bent over. A trainer made a brief visit to the mound to assist Carrasco, who gave up a single on the next pitch.
Rasmus hit the first pitch into the seats in right field, giving Houston a 3-2 lead.
Houston still led by a run when Francisco Lindor singled to start the fifth. Napoli hit his 31st homer -- a 433-foot blast three-quarters of the way up the bleachers in left field.
Guyer, batting for Tyler Naquin, doubled in two more runs off Kevin Chapman.
Gurriel hit his first major league home run -- a two-run blast off Andrew Miller in the eighth.
Lindor was 3 for 4 for his 23rd three-hit game, a major league high. Lonnie Chisenhall had three hits and an RBI for Cleveland.
Astros: SS Carlos Correa was sent back to Houston because of inflammation in his left shoulder.
Indians: C Yan Gomes (separated right shoulder) caught five innings for Triple-A Columbus on Wednesday, his first time behind the plate since being injured July 17.
Astros: RHP David Paulino, one of Houston's top prospects, makes his big league debut Thursday. He went 5-4 with a 2.00 ERA at three minor league levels covering 20 outings.
Indians: RHP Trevor Bauer tossed seven scoreless innings in a May 10 victory at Minute Maid Park. He is 4-0 with a 0.67 ERA in four career starts against the Astros.

|This is a discussion on Holdem Indicator V1.2.8 in-depth review within the online poker forums, in the General Poker section; Holdem Indicator V1.2.8 review By Rindhoops. July 2007 First I would like to point out that I am not connected with HI (Holdem Indicator) in any way
Holdem Indicator V1.2.8 in-depth review
Holdem Indicator V1.2.8 review
By Rindhoops. July 2007
First I would like to point out that I am not connected with HI (Holdem Indicator)
in any way and that I am a beginner to poker (7 weeks playing @ roughly
8 hours a day & counting). So this review is from the perspective of a beginner.
Getting a licence:
I was nearly put off by the sales pitch claiming HI is totally free, which is nearly true.
You can either buy it $69.95 (thats not free!) or sign up for one of their affiliate Poker
rooms (that sounds free?) but you must deposit $50 minimum and play 200 raked hands.
Note: The exception to the $50 minimum is with Party Poker at $25, sadly I already had an
account there.
I guess if you was going to sign up to one of their affiliates anyway then it would be a
good deal (thats free!) but if not, you at least have a good chance to win your
money back, especially as you get a bonus on your deposit at most Poker rooms.
It took me about 8 hours of playing like a fish to get my 200 rakes on the 2c\5c ring games,
(to qualify for the hand you must see the flop) it was embarrassing playing like that as I
am a very tight player usually. I also prefer SnGs & MTT so was not that happy. Ho hum.
So for my "free licence" it cost me 50 bucks plus 8 hours of my time playing at a Poker room
I didnt want to be at, and playing a game, that I didnt enjoy, just to kill the rake.
Another temporary restriction is you cannot use HI at any other Poker room until you have
completed your 200 rakes, I would of liked to have spread my time out between my favoured
Poker Room (Party Poker) and the new hated one!.
Note: To see how many raked hands you have played click on the "Tools" menu then "about" and
if it says >200 you have paid your penance.
Before doing all this I had searched for reviews and forum comments concerning HI and found
nothing worthwhile except from the author(s). On one forum someone said it was a "scam
program" which almost put me off, and as you will see later this is an unfair comment.
There are also some video clips on youtube of someone using HI and explaining some of the
features which impressed me and eventually made me decide to go for it.
The general lack of detailed information and independent reviews is why I decided to write
this to help out others that are interested but not quite sure.
Follow the link below for screenshots and fairly detailed features from the author(s).
links on this page include the program download and details of what Poker rooms are
available to sign up for the licence (just follow the sign up instructions by the letter)
Holdem Indicator - Poker Odds Calculator | Poker Calculator
Note: You can try out HI on the play money tables for free.
In summary; yes it can be a lot of hassle getting your "free" copy, but at least the option
is there and any half decent player should be able to win their sign up cash back if played
carefully (I didnt of course, but thats my fault!) If all that is too much hassle for you
then paying the $69.95, if you can afford it, is still a bargain as far as I am concerned,
because it WILL pay for itself very quickly, especially, if like myself, your game needs a
LOT of improving.
You can download the trial version from the link above, installation is very easy, no
complications, and HI works on Windows 98 and up. No MAC version is available.
Once you have singed up or paid for HI you will very quickly (mine was in a matter of
minutes) receive your licence key which you use to turn the trial copy into the full version.
To do this you just click "Tools" "About" "Enter Licence Key"
then copy & paste your key in from your e-mail and you are ready to go raking.
There is a full list of features displayed on the page in the link I gave you above.
Win Odds & pot odds:
These two features are very helpful especially if like me your math sucks, it frees your
mind to concentrate on other aspects of your game instead of doing your sums.
Combined with pot & win odds this is another useful time saving feature.
Outs are the potential number of unseen cards left in the deck that could improve your hand.
As a beginner I found trying to calculate all the odds and outs for every hand exhausting and
to be honest a bit beyond me in the time available. But with HI all this is done for you in a
flash and represented clearly on screen it's a great relief.
EV (Expected value):
This is the expected value for your hole cards, its based on real statistics extracted from
Poker Room's EV Page and can be useful. In simplistic terms a plus value means over time you will
make a profit playing that hand (if played correctly)
This is very useful for complete beginners, though youll soon not need it as knowing the
value of your hole cards will soon become second nature.
Its based on David Sklansky`s hole card groupings ranked 1=best (AA KK etc.)
to 9=worst (e.g.: 2-7u) all possible starting hands are covered.
Usually ignored by beginners, please dont, it is crucial if you do not want to get slaughtered by
maniacs going all-in on you when you just made a heakthy raise etc. Late position is good, middle position is OK for some slightly weaker
hands and in early position you should avoid playing most hands apart from premium hole cards
unless certain circumstances dictate otherwise. There are plenty of free articles to read on
on positioning, just Google it. Having said all that your positional awareness should soon become second
nature, so again, although useful for total beginners as a reminder, the feature soon becomes
Your\Opponents hand at showdown:
I mostly ignore this feature because I dont find it that useful or reliable enough.
Obviously it can only predict outcomes using known cards & probability so its not the programs fault.
It can be useful to alert you of a possibility of an opponents out you may have missed,
though this is rare for me. Maybe Im missing something here as this feature alone takes up
half of the program screen. Please be aware I am a relative beginner so maybe this will
become more useful to me as I grow as a player?
Opponent Stats:
Now we are getting to the really interesting stuff. This is the feature that swung it for
me. HI will track every player at your table and hold in a database very useful stats
that can be accessed by clicking on "opp Stats" in the HI toolbar where-upon a window pops
up displaying the current players stats (including your own) at your table, you can also
select "history" to see if you have played anyone at your new table before, this feature
alone is worth its weight in gold to me, especially as I have a rather short memory,
especially for names (Id forget my Mothers name if she didnt wear a name tag).
Imagine the edge you can have once your database is well stocked, you could instantly know
who the fish are who is usually tight, passive, loose, manic or aggressive etc.
You will even know if they raise preflop a lot, theyre % of showdowns played and % won.
There is also a useful player note feature, so no need to scribble notes on old-fashioned
paper anymore and you get to save a few trees into the bargain!
But just as useful for the beginner is the ability to assess oneself!
I know from recent experience, that once you have attained the basic general knowledge on
offer from books and articles etc. your average newbie will need a little help to progress and
its not always obvious for a beginner how to improve ones game from the basic level,
I found it very frustrating.
In my case for example, most of my game was ok but I was terribly passive, this was borne
out by HI by my really low Aggression Factor "AF" which was averaging at about 0.2AF
HI reckons you should at least attain around 1.3-1.7 AF so even though I knew I was being too
passive when I tried to be aggressive I went either too far over the top or not enough and usually
got slaughtered so I went back to my old ways and thought to myself, this is it then, this is as
good as Ill get! Quite depressing. But after a few hours with HI I had managed to balanced
my aggression almost to perfection and I think my game has improved 300% because of it, Im
certainly winning more SnGs rather than just top 4 place, this has already paid for the
program in its first week. The way you can use it to tutor yourself is marvellous for a
beginner struggling to find his way.
Another nice touch is the little icons denoting the type of player. Again you can see these
in the screenshots in the link above.
I spent a lot of time attaining to the "good player" symbol and got it down pat, but it
wasnt long before I found this will at best only get you in the top 10% of most tourneys it wont win you
anything very often unless you get an excess of really top hands (which I never seem to)
so now I aspire to the bomb symbol which is the same as the good player but slightly looser
and I am happier with the results (40th of 8000 tourney and 2 sng wins last night and
just won a MTT 5 table for the first time.) and I am still working on it so I expect more improvement.
Yet another great use of the stats is that you can watch a table play and HI will store all
the stats for you, great for ring games, you can join the game when you have a good profile
of each player and start with an edge rather than a disadvantage. You could even set HI off
watching table one at a tourney and go off and do some shopping or whatever and come
back to a rather large amount of players in your database for future use, though I havent
tried that one yet.
If these Opponent Stats were the only feature in the program I would still be happy, the rest
is a bonus as far as I am concerned.
I am aware there are other programs that do stats but I havent had the opportunity to test them yet
so I cannot fairly discuss comparisons at this stage.
Mucked Hands:
Some valuable info can sometimes be gleaned from opponents by seeing their mucked hands,
this can give you yet another slight edge over other players not using software to monitor
the game. This feature is only available for Party Poker, Empire Poker, Full Tilt, Poker
Stars, Absolute and Crypto sites.
You have the Nuts alert:
I have to laugh at my luck with this one, I have only had the Nuts five times so far and each
time I had already folded preflop, damn it! This is another Useful time saver.
The time you would spend making 100% sure you had the nuts can instead be spent on how best
to fill the pot with chips for your impending win.
Beginner note: "The Nuts" means your hand is unbeatable.
Show my hole cards after folding:
This is an option in "Tools" "Settings". It simply keeps your folded hole cards on display
for you after you have folded, not essential, but I like it. if it upsets you, you can switch it off.
As you can see I am very happy with the program. It has definitely improved my game several
fold and I wouldnt want to play without it now, Id feel lost. I think its probably of most
use to beginners but I can see good players being able to take advantage of some of its features,
thats for you to decide. But surely, any edge, no matter how small, must help?
I have just got hold of Tournament Indicator so I may do a review of that soon.
I just cant bear the thought of 900 (yes 900!) raked hands at a poker room I hate.
July 2007
Thanks Egon, took a while, but was so impressed how it improved my game
and the lack of a real review on the Net thought might be useful.
re: Poker & Holdem Indicator V1.2.8 in-depth review
I started using it recently too. Played my 100 raked hands at Party to get the 'free' license. Like you say, the information on your opponents is most valuable. Often you get a feeling for how loose or aggressive someone is, or how often they raise preflop etc. This program supplies some stats to back up those initial ideas - enabling you to zero in on opponents tendencies better.
In terms of the odds calculator, I look at my side of the equation only - its helpful to remind me the odds of hitting a straight, flush etc. More than once it has shown me a double gutshot straight draw that I didnt realise was there. The rest of the info the program supplies I pretty much ignore. I think paying too much attention to 'win odds' is a bit silly, as the poker program doesnt know your opponents hands.
As reviews go, that is top notch. So good in fact I have a hard time figuring out why you would do it if you were not somehow involved with HI. Not meant to accuse you of anything, though it does look that way. You should probably offer it (after polishing up the syntax a wee bit) to HI for mega bucks, and let them use it in magazine ads.
I have no program to help me, and understand Poker Tracker is the current king. There has been some mention lately of a newer program to challenge PT, and I don't think it is HI. But it's good to see there may be some competition to drive the prices down.
You might add that once running, no further input is necessary, that the program automatically gets the info from the screen, and updates it instantly. Assuming of course that is the case.
For most U.S. players, we probably already have all the US friendly sites loaded so would be unable to avail ourselves of the 'free after xxx raked hands' thing.
At any rate, thanks for the good review. And do do the TI review also.
Good review.
I have it installed, and I do use it at times. Most of the time I dont use any aids though. I do use Poker Tracker, but not much when I am actually playing.
I make good use of the note feature though in the clients, as its alot easier to forget a name than a face. I wouldn't use an aid live, so just dont use one very often online either. Usually use them when I am playing stakes above what I normally play, as then I need all the help I can get.
Hi dj
Thanks for the nice things you said about my review.
I can assure you I am in no way affilliated with H.I.
As explained in the review I did it because there are no independent reviews for it anywhere (that I could find) and I wanted to write something for this forum and was determined to do a fair and balanced review.
I can see why you may think that I am affillated but if the program was crap I would of said so, I assure you.
I would also like to add as a footnote to the review that I have just discovered that the H.I licence key is linked to the computer or O.S so if you get a new computer you have to e-mail them for a new key, which I did, luckily they are very quick replying and no hassle.
Yes, once H.I is running you do not need to do anything, it attaches itself to your table and works automatically. There is also a mini-mode if required, which is just a small toolbar which I should of mentioned too.
Good luck,
re: Poker & Holdem Indicator V1.2.8 in-depth review
Nice one Doc, glad you found it useful.
Good luck,
Hi Myar
Thanks for reply. You reminded me of a thought I often get when using H.I;
without it I would be lost, which is worrying because when I`m up against Helmuth and that lot in the WSOP in 5 years time I`ll be on my own!
Dependency on H.I clinics will need to be opened at some stage probably.
Good luck

Assuming the two best qualified facial surgeon with 150+ facelifts per yr with one using deep plane technique under IV sedation and the other using the SMAS mini lift under oral sedation which facelift would, on the same 60 yr old female with moderate jowling and neck laxity have the best near term and long term result. When, in either case, would you predict a redo would be necessary.
Deep Plane Vs Short Scar SMAS?
Doctor Answers 4
Deep Plane Vs Short Scar SMAS?
It seems you are in the middle of a decision for two different approaches for face lifting. In face, there are more than two technique of facelift techniques. Each technique has its pros and cons.
Both deep plane and SMAS mini liftting can be applied to a great number of techniques, there is no one and the same method called Deep plane lift and there is no very definite technique called SMAS.
If try to describe in few words the difference between them, the Deep plane is the technique, which involves tightening the deeper structures of the face and more frequently used for the patients with moderate to severe signs of aging. It can provide overall better results, as this technique allows the surgeon to lift the looser tissues up. Besides, it is more complicated technically and has more inherent risk of facial nerve damage.
In a SMAS technique we more have a neck and jaw as an object of lift, than a face and cheek. A dramatic improvement in the neck and jowls can be achieved with experienced surgeon with less injuries, less recovery time and less cost.
That is why I think choosing the surgeon you can trust and whose decision you can rely on, should be prior to choosing surgical method.
I wish you best of the luck!
SMAS Vs. Deep Plane Facelift
The first techniques attempted utilized pulling of only the skin. Early on it became apparent that pulling of the skin alone led to early recurrence and excess scarring - not an ideal outcome. Other techniques have been attempted with a modicum of success. The most prominent of these other procedures is the deep plane technique whereby the entire sandwich of tissue (Skin, fat, muscle and fascia) is lifted together. This technique leads to a large amount of swelling but an early recurrence of the signs of aging. But most importantly, this technique does not allow us to lift the tissues vertically.
The process of aging is caused by gravity, facial animation, stresses on the skin (weight gain, smoking, drinking, sun damage and age). The combination of gravity and facial animation pulls the tissues of the face in a downward and inward direction. Smiling reverses the sag - so look in the mirror and smile to see where your facial tissues use to be and where you hope that surgery would replace them. It is for this reason that the SMAS lift should move all tissues in a vertical direction - put the tissues back to where they once were.
So with that said, what are the risks and benefits of the Vertical SMAS Facelift.
- More natural lifting of the fascial tissue avoids the windblown or pulled look of many other techniques.
- Vertical lift adds to the volume of the cheek, removes the jowl and marionette lines to yield a more oval face.
- Vertical lift often eliminates the malar depression or tear trough.
- The SMAS facelift has a lower risk of facial nerve injury than the deep plane facelift and recovery from swelling is significantly shorter.
- Perhaps the only really increased risk relative to other techniques is the risk of bleeding or hematoma. The creation of two flaps of tissue can result in an increase risk of bleeding. But these small blood clots under the skin are still infrequent and ultimately resolve.
- All facelift procedures have risks to the sensory and motor nerves of your face. This technique does not have the same risks as a deep plane for motor nerve injury.
- A SMAS facelift does not address the forehead (Brow lift) or the lower lid bags (Blepharoplasty) but they are often performed together.

Results of all Facelift varieties depend on how well the SMAS is addressed
Sounds like you are deciding between two different surgeons - not always an easy task. There are so many types of facelift techniques and terms out there that the whole topic can be confusing for patients and doctors alike!
The absolute key to success for any facelift procedure including Deep Plane Facelifts and Short Scar Facelifts is that your surgeon must be able to advise you well as to which procedure applies to your specific needs and which ones do not. Then they must be able to execute that procedure well so that the results desired are achieved.
Advice comes from training, experience, honesty and dedication to a specific area of expertise.
Execution comes with inherent skill, experience with time and desire to deliver successful outcomes for all patients.
End of the day you have to go with a Surgeon you trust and let him or her be the professional they have worked so hard to become and let them advise you and execute for you - as Surgeons we want only the best for our patients.
Lastly sometimes it is hard to choose between surgeons with all things being equal - in that case don't forget one thing you have in your favor - listen to your gut feelings.
Be well and hoped this helped,
Dr. Jafri

Deep plane vs. Short scar.
Although the scars by definition are longer, they will also be very well disguised if performed by a meticulous surgeon. My inherent bias is that of a properly executed deep plane facelift because of it's natural appearance and long-lasting results.

The defending champions edge out Ethiopia to qualify for the quarter-finals with a match to spare and remain in contention for a successive trophy
The defending champions showed their thirst for victory playing with much purpose from the first whistle and it was not long before Brian Umony shook the net after a neat exchange with lethal winger Moses Oloya.
Uganda dominated the early minutes of the match and would have scored more than two goals were they more coordinated upfront.
Oloya instigated the move by finding out the advancing Emmanuel Okwi who wasted no time to slide it to Umony to complete a good run in the ninth minute.
Cranes continued to pile pressure time and again giving Ethiopia's defense a torrid time on the slippery surface. The red hot Umony was to come close again in the 26th minute with a brilliant attempt which crashed on the wood work.
The hosts now have a strong command of Group A with six points from two matches while Kenya's Harambee Stars who had earlier beaten South Sudan 2-0 are second on three points.
Ethiopia is third with similar points but with an inferior goal difference while South Sudan are bottom of the Group with no points.
The debutantes had lost 0-1 to Ethiopia in their opening match. The outcome puts Kenya and Ethiopia in a tight spot as they both angle themselves for the remaining last eight slots when they face off on Friday.

Critic Reviews for Snowden
All Critics (226) | Top Critics (43) | Fresh (138) | Rotten (88)
Stone collects all of the silliest clichés about computing in a grab-bag aesthetic that tries every kind of pointlessly filtered or grainy look, but can't seem to fake a convincing webcam shot.
Stone's flashy filmmaking, including grand set pieces in enormous secret facilities, can't conceal his flat, thin, psychology-free depiction of a modest and self-sacrificing hero who single-handedly changed the politics of our time.
As Snowden, Gordon-Levitt is so muted, so cloistered, that it can be easy to miss that it's a very good performance.
Stone is so intent on making Snowden an icon that he scrubs him of his nuances, his individuality.
If Snowden's story wasn't real, Stone would have made it up. So why does Stone's movie feel so toothless?
Audience Reviews for Snowden
Despite some clichés and not being provocative enough for an Oliver Stone movie, this is a solid companion piece to Citizenfour with a great cinematography and editing - and Gordon-Levitt does an impressive job in mimicking the real Snowden's body language and even voice.
Super Reviewer
There's quite a difference when director Oliver Stone actually gives a damn with a movie, and you can tell with Snowden that he is passionate about making a compelling and accessible movie for American audiences to understand why they should be angry. He wants to lead the righteous civil liberties mob against the right perpetrators while providing an appreciative moral context to the actions of Edward Snowden, America's most famous fugitive. That sense of purpose and drive animates Stone in a way that his recent films have not, and even though it's far less gonzo and experimental as Stone's quintessential catalogue, the storytelling skill is still consistently engaging and the resulting 134 minutes inform as well as entertain. Edward Snowden (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) wanted to serve his country and his expertise in computers landed him in various jobs working for U.S. agencies. He discovered the abuse of surveillance over everyday citizens rubberstamped by a FISA court meant to provide oversight. Callous private contractors would surf through thousands of collected data points, and if pressed, could justify through terrorism connections, as it seems anyone in the world is perhaps three connections away from a person of interest (consider is the really unfortunate version of the Kevin Bacon game). Snowden risks everything to reach out to a team of journalists (Zachary Quinto, Melissa Leo, Tom Wilkinson) to tell his story and make sure the larger public will know these abuses of power. The best compliment I can give Stone as a screenwriter and director of Snowden is that he took a thoroughly challenging scenario with few cut-and-dry answers and made an accessible movie experience that effectively conveys moral outrage and dismay. It feels like Stone the educator is leading you by the hand, taking time out to explain some of the more delicate intricacies of the murky stuff that goes on behind closed doors. I won't exactly declare it to be an intelligent examination on the moral implications of the material, but it's certainly a movie that lands its goal of clarity. It produces a sense of clarity for the subject and a sense of clarity for why Snowden made the decisions he did. Gordon-Levitt delivers a steadily engrossing performance, even if it takes several minutes to adjust to his distracting speaking voice. Maybe my ears are just broken but it doesn't sound like Snowden. Fortunately, my ears did adjust accordingly. Gordon-Levitt and Stone effectively kept my attention throughout the film. I was surprised how much I found myself enjoying long stretches of this movie, even if my own stance on Snowden is less clearly defined. He talks a good talk but the reality is messy. Given Stone's conspiratorial history, the plot definitely comes with a distinctive point of view over whether Snowden is a hero or a traitor. I don't think inherent bias in a movie or the angle taken in storytelling is inherently misguided and that all stories should be as objective as possible. Sometimes the circumstances don't permit objectivity. Stone's film is clearly biased but it doesn't fall into a hagiographical hero worship of its titular figure. This is a complicated subject and deserves a proper analysis to place the real-life people in the meaningful morally ambiguous context. Snowden ultimately makes the decision to become the world's most famous whistleblower for what he felt were systematic abuses of government surveillance, but before that climactic decision he comes across less than a spotless martyr. His character arc is a fairly recognizable awakening of alarm and horror at the great abuses of power in the name of security. He does start off as a lifelong Republican with family members who have served in the military and different governmental bodies. He's devastated to be medically discharged from the Army and hungry to serve his country. He's a patriot who becomes disillusioned with the system, but he's also rather self-involved and excuses ego with civic duty. I didn't know how gifted Snowden was in his field, and the movie has some amusement with the wunderkind training sequences where Snowden delivers shock and awe to his stunned superiors. However, the second act becomes more than a bit protracted because Snowden keeps quitting but eventually going back to government surveillance, whether CIA or private subcontracting. This is because of the pay, sure, but it's mainly because nobody can do what he can do. He feels important. He feels needed. He convinces himself he's making a difference in the War on Terror, but eventually the reality of the widening peripheral of the war zone is too much to ignore for him. This is further epitomized through the romantic subplot with Lindsay Mills (Shailene Woodley), a liberal firebrand, photographer, and exotic exercise instructor. Woodley (The Fault in Our Stars) does her best infusing a warm personality into what is too often the underappreciated yet overly agreeable girlfriend role. It's a storyline meant to further humanize Snowden as well as personalize the encroaching invasions of privacy and subsequent paranoia. After he discovers that the government can activate laptops and watch oblivious citizens through webcams, Snowden can't help but stare down his open laptop during an almost laughably forced sex scene. My reaction as Lindsay climbed aboard Snowden was exactly this: "Oh, I guess this is happening now." She would have a greater impact if the movie did more with her character, as she is the long-suffering girlfriend who keeps accommodating his life choices. They move three times across the country for his jobs and Snowden is always unable to fully explain why he feels the pull to these tech occupations, which further frustrates a woman who just wants trust. There is one interesting conversation that Lindsay offers, typifying the blasé response to spying with a "well I have nothing to hide, so who cares" rationale. Snowden is quick to admonish this line of thinking, an opinion that many still share. The other regrettable reality is that the romance is inevitably going to be the least interesting facet of this story. By going behind the curtain of American secret surveillance, we're indulging in our collective curiosity at how exactly all these moving parts operate. To then go home and watch a couple squabble is a consistent letdown of drama. There are a few other artistic miscues that weigh down Snowden, mostly Stone's penchant for heavy-handed symbolism. The same instincts that allow Stone to carefully thread a knotty story are the same impulses that tell him that subtlety is for cowards. There doesn't need to be a frame story here. I understand that select media outlets trying to break this story naturally allows for a question-and-answer framing system of flashbacks. However, very little is added besides a skeletal structure. The media members act as reactionary acolytes. It was all captured much more credibly in the Oscar-winning documentary, Citizenfour. There's no earthly reason for Nicolas Cage to be in this movie except for drawing financing. He plays an old CIA code-breaker and admirer of outdated technology, but really he's there to serve as an institutional nod to Snowden. At the conclusion, when Snowden's identity and message becomes public, there's a scene where Cage's character literally toasts his pupil's actions. I would say it's a bit much but the character is a bit much for an actor that hasn't generally been known for restraint. When Snowden is leaving the CIA offices in Hawaii for the last time, he steps out into the light (get it? get it?) and the scene is practically rendered in slow motion as the enveloping white light fills the screen and bathes Snowden (get it? get it?). He smiles bigger than we've ever seen. Lastly, Stone can't just help himself during the very end and has Gordon-Levitt replaced with the actual Edward Snowden to deliver the closure of an interview. I don't think we needed a reminder that Snowden is an actual living person. Snowden the man, and Snowden the movie, wanted to shake up an ignorant and apathetic American public about the dangers of unchecked power in a surveillance state, but was the mission a qualified success? Years later and Snowden living in exile in Russia, the charitable answer would be inconclusive, though the pessimist in goes further. It very well seems that the majority of the American public simply doesn't care (out of sight out of mind). The trial over whether Snowden is a patriot or a traitor seems a little moot perhaps when the larger public shrugs at the revelations of security overreach. Does a movie about a Great Man have as much resonant cultural cache if that defining act of greatness produces a shrug? I'm by no means saying we should apply a polling system to accurately measure a person's value and accomplishments to the larger cultural and political landscape. Snowden wanted to wake the public up but we hit the snooze button. In the meantime, the movie about his exploits is fairly entertaining, so at least he has that. Nate's Grade: B

THE SPY WHO WENT INTO THE COLD - My Review of SNOWDEN (3 Stars) Has Oliver Stone become a humanistic filmmaker? If so, is that a good thing? Those are the questions I kept asking myself while watching his latest film, SNOWDEN, the biopic starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt as the former CIA communications expert turned NSA computer expert turned whistleblower who exposed government surveillance operations that monitor all of our keystrokes, conversations and GPS locations. Some have called Snowden a hero, while others think of him as a traitor, a dissident, or even a spy for the Russians. Clearly, Stone's version of events, along with co-screenwriter Kieran Fitzgerald, paints him as the former, which is certainly a valid point of view, but one that slightly robs the film of its greater social context. Many of Stone's prior films, especially NATURAL BORN KILLERS, demonstrated an impatience with standard storytelling techniques to the point where you wished he would slow things down to at least Michael Bay levels. With SNOWDEN, he's so subdued, it would be easy to mistake this film as one directed by [insert faceless studio hack here], were it not for the passion he shows for his subject. Levitt seems to be trying on accents lately with his wild French accent in THE WALK to his flat, hardened North Carolina pronunciations in SNOWDEN. It makes him compelling to watch and grounds the movie with a character whose demeanor I don't think I've ever quite seen depicted before. Lacking that big showy Oscar bait scene feels like a good thing, as Snowden approaches TALENTED MR. RIPLEY levels of detachment. It's a strong, unfussy performance and one that succeeds in conveying ambiguity as to the righteousness of his decisions. A couple of sequences stand out in the film allowing Stone to reach Danny Boyle-level heights of cinematic expression. One is a Skype call between Snowden and his CIA mentor (Rhys Ifans). It's a tense, creepy showdown made even more compelling by choosing to project Ifans' image against a wall to convey his utter dominance over Snowden. Ifans does great work in this film in a role typically reserved for Donald Sutherland. He's a character who seems to always be one step ahead of his charge until, well, he isn't. It's a fascinating arc to watch. Another is the scene in which Snowden smuggles out his information inside a Rubik's Cube. While we don't know for sure if this scene actually happened, it's such an absurdly perfect and simple way to steal the biggest government secrets since Watergate. Performances are good across the board, including a fun cameo by Nicholas Cage, Shailene Woodley as Snowden's long-suffering girlfriend, and especially Ben Schnetzer as one of Snowden's colleagues. Schnetzer, you may recall, starred in PRIDE as the main activist with an accent so convincing you would never guess he's from New York. Here, he transforms himself into a skater dude computer whiz and brings such a fun energy to his scenes. Keep your eye on this actor as I think he's seriously one to watch. One big quibble is that Stone robs Levitt of a big moment by choosing to use the real Snowden instead. Sure, it's been done before, especially in biopics. Think the real Tina Turner appearing in the end credits of WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT or Sully Sullenberger doing the same at the end of SULLY. But here's the catch - Snowden isn't appearing as himself in some archival footage. It's him reciting dramatic lines at a key moment that would have been better suited to a real actor, like, I don't know, perhaps the real actor hired for the part? I wouldn't have minded seeing a documentary interview of Snowden in the final credits, but this scene happens before that and dilutes the impact somewhat. It's a strange miscalculation on Stone's part. On a more global level, it was tough for me to watch this film and not think what someone like Martin Scorsese would have done with the subject. I think of that great final shot in CASINO, where we dissolve from our main story to a shot of modern day Las Vegas tourists waddling down a staircase to enter a casino. The entire dramatic story of that film got reduced to demonstrate where all of those big dreams led....to just another capitalist venture to kill the average person's boredom. My gut tells me Scorsese would have contextualized SNOWDEN more than Stone by showing young millennials at the end tweeting their hearts out and exposing every minute of their lives on Facebook and Snapchat. Snowden ay have blown the lid off of government surveillance, but more and more, I'm convinced that most people just don't care. When everyone is already documenting their lives, who cares if Big Brother is listening?

POWER RANGERS: 20 Morphinominal Years - A Look Back Pt. 2
20 years of
Power Rangers
, a look back at the Morphinominally popular super hero series which spawned toys, clothes, lunch boxes and comic books. The retrospective continues after the jump..
Shannon Cornthwaite
Filed Under: "
When Mighty Morphin Power Rangers hit television screens across the country, there was something the separated it from everything else that was on tv. We were given a rare program that balanced great stories and action with lessons. The lessons didn't appear at the end of the broadcast like with He-Man and GI Joe, it appeared through out each and every episode. Eventually, the Power Rangers lost that after Andros destroyed Zordon's tube and the Z wave eliminated all evil in the universe during the final episode of Power Rangers in Space.
Prior to Lost Galaxy, the Power Rangers were about friendship, trust, kindness, physical/mental and spiritual health, and most of all it was about always being the bigger person. In the early days, the rangers rarely fought amongst themselves nor did they make fun of each other. In fact, this style of Power Ranger completely changed after Rangers in Space. Gone were the days of promoting the good nature of others and here to stay are the days of only kicking monster butt. In the early days, we received something special something that kids today probably wouldn't understand. When the Rangers weren't morphed and fighting evil, they were busy working at the Angel Grove Youth Center, teaching children karate or gymnastics or even how to eat healthy. It was all about being able to accomplish anything you put your mind to in those days and treating others the way you want to be treated.
The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers didn't just stick to the same old routine of battling monsters all the time, in fact Jason David Frank did several Power Ranger Karate Club videos as the Green Ranger and as the White Ranger. All of the Rangers did a live tour when promoting the movie, similar to what the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had done back in the day, which you just don't get anymore. They not only taught each and everyone of us while on tv, but lived it in their real lives. It seemed they took a page straight out of Bill Cosby's handbook by teaching kids the importance of exercise and learning.
In my last article, I didn't really give very much time to the comedic duo of the show, Bulk and Skull. I'd like to correct that now. During the early days of MMPR, Bulk and Skull were bullies who continuously had to make fun of and try to pick on the rangers as well as others in the series. To me I felt this was important because it showed children that everyone get's picked on from time to time even Super Heroes. Gradually, Saban changed Bulk and Skull from dim witted bullies to loveable funny friends of the rangers. It was this that showed children, that no matter how bad you are or how mean, there's always time for you to change your ways and be a better person. Over the years, we see bulk and Skull go from being High School bullies who try and discover the true identity of the Power Rangers to recruits in the Angel Grove Police Department, to Private Detectives and then working in the Youth Center with Sergeant Stone. We've seen them transform into monkeys and become scientific researchers on Terra Venture, then somehow come back to Earth and take on management of a tiki juice bar named after Bulk but actually owned by Tommy. Then we get Skull's son, being trained to be a Samurai by Bulk in Power Rangers Samurai. Currently, the future is unknown for this Dynamic Duo of laughter, but I'm sure Saban isn't finished with them yet.
Where Are Bulk and Skull now?
Paul Schrier is still acting "when ever the need should arise" according to his facebook profile. He also enjoys performing with his band and "I currently have my feet in Art" also according to his profile. He and Jason Narvy are best friends in real life.
Jason Narvy is currently a Doctor of theater studies and a Masters and Bachelors degree in other fields. He is currently the assistant professor at Concordia University, Chicago's theatre department. Still acting on television in minor films occasionally.
In Part 3 I will be explaining just how much Power Rangers has changed over it's 20 year life span and do a where are they now for Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Tonya, Cat and Justin.

Much of the forcing and any instability has begun to weaken and thus the current storms/showers look to diminish by around 00z or sooner. Another weak shortwave looks to pass through the state tonight into early Sunday morning providing another round of light showers looks possible east of I- 80. However, with the secondary trough moving through tonight, limited moisture and forcing associated with this system and have very low confidence with any measurable precipitation tonight. Other concern is breezy weather tomorrow afternoon with decent mixing and winds atop the mixed layer around 20-25 knots and the majority of the gusts will be realized at the surface due to the deep dry adiabatic sounding profiles. Thus, nudged up winds and temperatures slightly tomorrow afternoon. .LONG TERM.../Sunday night through Saturday/ Issued at 333 PM CDT Sat May 27 2017 Overall, a very inactive long-term fcst period for this time of year. With westerly to NW flow all week, we should be solidly locked into near-normal temperatures with highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s. Monday into Tuesday... 19z Sat water vapor imagery clearly picking up on cut-off low over Mantitoba slowly dropping to the southeast. By Monday morning, this low should be positioned near Lake Superior. Models in decently solid agreement with tracking this low, so consensus blend appropriate. Timing of trough axis/weak cold front appears to pass through Iowa Monday morning. If this timing holds, would need to raise POP/QPF Monday morning and lower it for Monday afternoon. Monday afternoon looks to be stratus/sc fest with wrap- around 850mb moisture overspreading much of Iowa, increasing to the north and east. Could see an isolated shower or two, but with lack of focusing mechanism, will be difficult for anything sustained to get going. Fairly similar/persistent day expected for Tuesday... With Tuesday being less windy as pressure gradient relaxes with upper low propagating eastward, further away from Iowa. Wednesday through Thursday Morning... Iowa stays in NW Flow regime. With wrap-around moisture east of the area and sfc high pressure passing through the upper Midwest, expecting decently sunny day Wednesday. 850mb temps in the +5C to +10C range, suggesting highs in the upper 60s to mid 70s. With light winds, should be a decently pleasant time period. Thursday Afternoon and Beyond... Models diverge on mesoscale (as expected), but synoptic scale trend generally shows Iowa in return flow/WAA by Thursday afternoon as sfc high moves into the Ohio Valley region. 12z Sat GFS picking up on a strong band of theta-e advection and frontogenetical forcing associated with a warm front pushing through Iowa Thursday into Friday. Due to model divergence, confidence not the greatest with this solution... but have left in token chance POPs for now. Long-range models in agreement with warming as 850mb temps make it into the +10C to +15C range...possibly placing Iowa well into the 80s by next weekend. && .AVIATION.../For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Sunday afternoon/ Issued at 1250 PM CDT Sat May 27 2017 The scattered storms look to impact mainly ALO, MCW and possibly FOD this afternoon as they continue to push north-northeast. Otherwise, expecting VFR conditions through much of the TAF period. && .DMX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE. && $$ SHORT TERM...Podrazik LONG TERM...Kotenberg AVIATION...Podrazik

Added on 13-Mar-2006
Nice Q&A at the end of the article, esp about a album???? THEY WERE ONE of the most popular bands with one of the biggest sounds of the classic-album rock era.We're talking 'bout the grand and glorious Queen, shaking the stadium rafters with anthems like "We Are the Champions," "Bohemian Rhapsody," "Another One Bites the Dust," "We Will Rock You" and "Crazy Little Thing Called Love."Sadly, the 1991 death of flamboyant front-man Freddie Mercury from AIDS put the kibosh on their rule over the charts. No one could imagine Queen carrying on without Freddie, captain of the high C's, who lorded over the stage and their recordings like he really was royalty.Yet now the band has been reborn. This time the billing reads Queen + Paul Rodgers.Q: So give us the back story. How did this collaboration come to pass?A: It started off when we played in England together, at the UK Rock Hall of Fame, a telecast show. Prior to that, I'd worked with Brian May at Wembley, at a concert event for Fender Guitars. We have kind of a history of that.So then for the TV show, I asked if he'd like to play with me. He said, "I'd love to do that, but Queen would really like to play live. Any chance we could get you to join us on 'We Are the Champions' and 'We Will Rock You'?"This one-off [performance] went over so well on a musical level that when we came offstage, we all immediately said, "Let's do more."Originally, we thought about going out as May, Taylor and Rodgers, kind of like Crosby, Stills & Nash. Then they came back with, "How about touring as Queen with Paul Rodgers?" That floored me. But it didn't take too long to think it through. Originally, they wanted us to do 50 percent my songs. I said, "I'm really flattered, but you guys haven't toured in 25 years, so it should be your moment."But when we do a few of my songs, they really put themselves into it. On "Feel Like Making Love," we go to a place I never thought possible. It's that intense.Q: How much performing have you guys done together? And have you given thought to writing and recording new material?A: We toured through Europe last spring from March to May. We actually kicked off the tour in South Africa, playing for Nelson Mandela, who's such a beautiful guy. We also did Sweden, the Czech Republic, Japan and most places in between. Now we're doing 24 dates in the U.S.The subject of recording a new album has come up. It's a question of time and opportunity. There isn't a pressing financial need to do it. They're well-fixed, what with the royalties from the albums and the Queen stage musical ["We Will Rock You"] and the laser shows.I'm not in the same place, but I live frugally and have more than enough to cover the rest of my life. So we'll see.Q: There are a few notable Queen classics, like "You're My Best Friend," that you guys left off the European tour [and live CD/DVD, "Return of the Champions"]. And when you all do "Bohemian Rhapsody," you put up a video of Freddie singing. Is this to skirt around limitations in your voice?A: Not really. Some of those keys are deadly, but I can go there. I'm still keeping myself in good shape with exercise and meditation. And in a way, I'm still taking vocal lessons, listening to Aretha Franklin and Wilson Pickett and Sam & Dave, singing along with my heroes. In fact, I recently sang live with Sam Moore, too, for a TV show called "From the Heart." It's a tribute to the Four Tops, which will be out on DVD and on PBS [this month].The main reason we've skipped some Queen songs is because there just wasn't space for them. The sets are long and getting longer, so you have to become very critical about what's in and out. One reason we do "Bohemian Rhapsody" with the video is that the original production was such a multilayered studio affair. They can't recreate it onstage and do it justice.Truth is, the original Queen didn't fully play it live onstage, either. They always used a tape. Also, using the video footage of Freddie, it becomes a very poignant moment, a tribute to him

Villamin had 101 yards for a touchdown on five receptions through the first two quarters alone, finishing the game with 215 yards and another two touchdowns. A legitimate 6-foot-4, 215-pounds, Villamin also played a prime role in the Eagles' defense, impressing with his blocking ability.
"The highlight for me tonight was my first touchdown, when I went down the field and made people miss me. I think I've gotten better with my hands and routes, have more explosion. I've gotten bigger and more physical, so I can break more tackles," he said after the game.
The receiver, who thinks he could gain another ten pounds in college, committed to Oregon State in July and has enjoyed watching the Beavers' successful season.
"I've been watching them a lot. They have been doing really well. They get the receivers the ball a lot; Cookie [Beavers' receiver Brandin Cooks] has been doing a great job. I met him when I took my unofficial and he's just a great guy. I'm glad he's doing big things, because he deserves it," he said.
The receiver is looking forward to joining the team next fall.
"I can definitely fit into their offense. I think it's close to the offense we run, a little bit of pro-style, so it will be good," he said.
He has planned his official visit for November 24th, when the Beavers host Oregon.
Villamin and fellow Oregon State receiver commit, Victor Boldin, who are long-time friends, have continued to discuss their enthusiasm in playing college ball together next season. Villamin has also done a bit of recruiting for his future team, talking with Beaverton (Ore.) Aloha offensive guard Brayden Kearsley.
The receiver took an official visit to Utah earlier this season (another program from which he holds an offer) and said after the game that he had tentative plans to unofficially visit Fresno State over the weekend with teammate Cameron James, an offensive tackle.
"They have been recruiting me since the summer; they just wanted to see the first couple of games before offering me," he said.
For now, Villamin is set with his decision, and though his senior season is over, he's proud of his progression.
"I played my heart out this year," he said.

Yadunandan Sharma
Yadunandan Sharma (also spelled Jadunandan) (1896–1975) was an Indian peasant leader and national liberation figure from the Indian state of Bihar. He had started a movement for the rights of tillers against the zamindars and Britishers at Reora celebrated as the Reora Satyagraha.
Yadunandan Sharma was born in a brahman family in Manjhiyawan village, Arwal district, in 1896.[1][page needed] The village was part of the Tekari zamindari. His father died when Sharma was aged three and he had to begin work as a cowherd while very young. This cause him to miss school and it was only in 1914 that, impelled by the desire to become literate, he ran away to Benaras where he learned the alphabet.
He matriculated in 1919 from Tekari high school and became a teacher for one year in a village school. He worked also as a manager in a zamindari, getting a first hand knowledge of the system. Not happy with it, he again went off to Benaras and joined Benaras Hindu University and studied until 1929 when he graduated. After his B.A. degree, he left education and joined Civil Disobedience Movement.[1] He was arrested and sentenced for 16 months in 1930. After being released from jail, he joined the Kisan movement in 1933 and started the famous Sandako and Reora Satyagraha in the 1930s.[1] He became the undisputed leader of peasants in the Arwal district and second in command to the legendary freedom fighter and peasant leader Sahajanand Saraswati. Most of his life was spent in the Neyamatpur village in an ashram from where he kept revolting against the British Rule and Zamindari. Pandit Nehru paid a visit to the Ashram in 1936 on a chilling winter night in December to meet him and address a mass gathering of the locals.[1] He died in 1975.After freedom once he fought election from makhdumpur constituency of gaya district for MLA but he lost.

5. Where should we correct data?
Business users are aware that data quality is a serious and expensive problem. Thus, most organizations are likely to support initiatives to improve data quality. But most users probably have no idea where data quality problems originate or what should be done to improve data quality. They may think that data quality is a simple execution problem for the ETL team, but data quality cannot be improved by ETL alone. In this environment, the ETL team needs to be agile and proactive, partnering with the business and the IT teams that support the source systems.
The key decision is where to correct the data. The best solution is clearly to have the data captured accurately in the first place. In most cases the data should be corrected back in the source system. Unfortunately, it is inevitable that poor quality data will reach the ETL system, and when this happens, there are three choices:
The third choice is by far the best choice, whenever possible. Halting the process is obviously a pain because it requires manual intervention to diagnose the problem, restart or resume the job, or abort completely. Sending records to a suspense file is often a poor solution because it is not clear when or if these records will be fixed and reintroduced to the pipeline. Until the records are restored to the data flow, the overall integrity of the database is questionable because records are missing. I don't recommend using the suspense file for minor data transgressions. The third option of tagging the data with the error condition often works well. Bad fact table data can be tagged with an audit dimension that describes the overall data quality condition of the offending fact row. Bad dimension data can also be tagged using the audit dimension or, in the case of missing or garbage data, it can be tagged with unique error values in the field itself. From this point, data quality reporting capabilities can flag the offending fact and dimension rows, indicating a need for resolution and, ideally, repair of the data in the source system.
6. What data latency level do we need to support?
Data latency describes how quickly source system data must be delivered to the business users via the DW/BI system. Data latency obviously has a huge effect on the costs and complexity of your ETL environment. Clever processing algorithms, parallelization and potent hardware can speed up traditional batch-oriented data flows. But at some point, if the data latency requirement is urgent, the ETL system architecture must step up from batch mode to streaming orientation. This isn't a gradual or evolutionary change; it's a major paradigm shift in which almost every step of the data delivery pipeline must be reimplemented.
ETL streams for most organizations typically require a data latency that matches the natural rhythm of the business. We find that most organizations require daily updates for most ETL streams and weekly or monthly updates for other ETL streams. However, in some circumstances, more frequent updates or even real-time updates suit the rhythm of the business. The key is to recognize that only a handful of business processes within any organization are appropriate for real-time updating. There's no compelling reason to convert all ETL processing to real time. The rhythm of most business processes simply doesn't demand that treatment.
Be careful: asking business users if they want "real-time" delivery of data is an invitation for trouble. Most business users will request lower-latency data regardless of whether they understand the impact of the request. We recommend dividing the real-time challenge into three categories: daily, frequently and instantaneous. Get your end users to describe their data latency requirements in similar terms and then design your ETL solution appropriately to support each set of requirements:
Kimball Group Design Tip #89 Real Time Triage, describes the impacts and implementation alternatives for each of these capabilities in more detail.
This article has addressed six key decisions that must be evaluated during the creation of an ETL architecture supporting a dimensional data warehouse. There is seldom a single correct choice for any of these decisions. As always, the right choices are best driven by the unique requirements and characteristics of your organization.

Maenel: Shadows of the Dead
I tie on my dark grey cloak, under which I wear a white tunic and my yellow sash, then put the hood up and pull my hands back into the sleeves. Wouldn't want anyone to see my tools, my claws. I use a rather abnormal method of killing - they're called tekagi-shuko. They're basically wrist bands with pieces that extend to your palm, and there is a six-inch long metal claw running along the top of each finger, right in line with the knuckles. The blades flex with my fingers, too - they're jointed, and if the weapons were removed from my hands, the blades would fold all the way against the two banded pieces. If I were caught with those, it wouldn't really be prudent to explain my mission. "Hi, I'm just looking for someone I want to kill. I'm an assassin." Great.
I leap onto the roof of my target's home, almost ready to strike. I've been tracking her for weeks, so I know her schedule. Soon, she will be coming to bed - and then, I will strike. When she walks into her room, I leap in through the window and prepare to stab her in the heart. Suddenly, the lights come on, and I can see her face, the beautiful shoulder-length hair the color of gold, the bright blue eyes, the slightly tanned skin.
It's her. The woman I loved.
Only then do I awaken. I know what the message in the nightmare is - I know I killed the one I loved. I have nobody to blame for anything if I can't blame myself for everything. And that's what brought me to this point - I sit on the end of my simple bed, the blade of my misericorde dagger lightly touching my forehead, thinking if I just relax my neck muscles a little, it would all end.
But, I don't. Instead, I set the knife down on my bedside table - a simple crate turned upside down - and get off my bed. I pull on some good clothes - a pair of trousers, my tunic and cloak, and, of course, my yellow sash - and head to the tavern down the road. When I get there, I see a drunkard sitting outside, begging for change. Suddenly, he grabs my shoulder, and before I can stop myself, I slit his throat with my tekagi-shuko - let's just call them my claws, as they might as well be the real thing - they haven't left my hands for years. I've even learned to sleep with them.
I continue into the tavern, sit down and ask the bartender for a beer. He comes out with the beer, and I take it. I've spotted the tail behind me by now.
"Tieron," I say by greeting, "I'm getting tired of these games. You and I both know you're not going to kill me, or even challenge me, at that. What do you want now?"
"I saw what you did to that beggar out in the alley."
"Shut up." I pull my friend, Tieron, out into the street so as not to be overheard by the people in the bar - at this time of night, almost no one was outside. "You," I say, "Should know better than to mention what I do in front of others. They can never - never - know what I do. You understand? Do you understand?"
"Yes," he responds, "I'm sorry, Dealus - "
"Never call me that! I will slot you where you stand. Do you get it? This isn't a game. If anyone learns who I am -"
"I know." Here, Tieron's face darkens. "You'll get killed. Just listen, okay, I'm your friend -"
"No! No, you are not. I do not have friends, okay? Do you get it? I don't know you, and you don't - " Here, I pause, hoping to finally drive this into Tieron's thick skull, "You don't know me. Okay?" He begins to walk away. "And don't speak to me again! I will kill you, if I must!"
As he walks away, he turns back to me and says, "Just don't lose sight of your morals, Maenel. Such a mistake might prove deadly."
And then, he is gone.
