Great location and peacful!
We stayed in one of the 2 bedroom villas (two families so a squeeze but we didn't even notice), we found the place very clean and well maintained. The owner Fabrizio was very hospitable as we arrived early. The kids enjoyed the pool, we even used the braai facilities on one of the evenings.
All in all we had a great stay, I would definitely come back.
Very nice place to stay
Very nice place to stay, good functional appartment. Owner is good willing en helps with everything and makes your stay comfortable.
Great Apartment in Perfect Location
Thank you to Fabrizio for a wonderful stay in your two bedroom apartment in Sunset Beach. The apartment was exactly as described and pictured, the location was perfect with a market close by, and the beach right around the corner was great for the kids. What truly made the trip for us was the extra help and service from Fabrizio and his service staff. He helped us plan our sightseeing, he gave us local insight to the different areas for food and entertainment, and the daily service provided by his staff made the stay very pleasant with cleaning and help with the laundry. I have only good things to say about our stay in Cape Town, and Sunset Residence and I highly recommend this property!
Tolle Ferien in schöner Ferienwohnung
Die Ferienwohnung in Sunset Beach können wir wärmstens empfehlen. Wir (2 Erwachsene, 2 Kinder) verbrachten dort eine Woche über Silvester 2010/11. Die Wohnung war für uns 4 sehr geräumig, Kinder hatten separates Schlafzimmer und Bad, Wohn/Essraum ist riesig und Küche gut ausgestattet.
Der Vermieter, Fabrizio, ist Italiener, spricht italienisch und englisch. Er ist ein absolut netter, relaxter Gastgeber, der gerne hinsichtlich der Ferienplanung hilft, Tipps für Asuflüge gibt und uns auch mit allerhand Kartenmaterial sowie Restaurantempfehlungen weiterhalf. Viele der Gäste der kleinen Anlage sind a) Italiener und b) zum Kitesurfen oder auch Golfen da. Falls man das vorhat, ist man sicher perfekt aufgehoben. Aber auch für uns, als normale Touristen, war das Appartment eine ideale Ausgangsbasis für Ausflüge. In ca. 15. Minuten war man in der Innenstadt, knapp 30 Minuten zum Flughafen.
Im übrigen fanden wir auch die Nachbarschaft nett und fühlten uns absolut sicher. Der nächste Supermarkt sowie einige kleinere Restaurants sind zu Fuss erreichbar.
Wir würden bei einem weiteren Kapstadt-aufenthalt gerne wieder hier wohnen.
Excellent Service
My wife and I, stayed at Sunset Beach for 5 nights from the 11 of October 2010. The place is clean, well furnished and not expensive. Furthermore the owner is very friendly and provided us with a lot of information about the Cape Town area. This helped us to save a lot of money with our car rental, tickets to museums, restaurants etc. We enjoyed our stay and we will certainly return whenever we have to stay in Cape Town again. Overall: this guesthouse is a very high value for money!
Fabrizio the Fab host
I stayed there for 9 nights from 16OCT10. Fabrizio met us at the airport and arranged hire car to be delivered to the flat. A very good way to arrive after a long flight and first time in Cape Town. A car is a must as there is no public transport and taxis are very expensive. Road system is world class with good driving discipline and manners so very easy to get around. Location is very safe. Everything you need located in the neighbourhood shopping centre 2 minutes walk away and outstanding sunsets on the beach 5 minutes away , views into Cape Town and Table Mountain magnificent. Fabrizio is a well of local knowledge and is always available to assist and give advice. Wifi available, rooms well maintained with maid service. 15-20 minute drive downtown, although with all big cities avoid rush hour coming back in the evening as traffic is slow.
Food at the restuarants in the local shopping centre good quality and extremely reasonable price. Recommend the Grill and Butcher Rest located just 5 minutes drive up the coast at Dolphin Bay, not for vegetarians or well done cremated steaks, rare or medium rare only , melts in your mouth and a large selection of meat and game to choose from.
Fabrizio's extremely competitve rates leaves more
cash available to sample the excellent local wines and styles of food. Thoroughly enjoyable time and highly recommended, just ensure if you use your credit card in a restaurant, or elsewhere that it does not leave your possession and that the card reader is brought to the table. Lots to do and see in and around Cape Town where the people are warm and friendly. I shall return.
Activity and Interests
Sunset Beach is an up-market residential area, located 10 minutes driving, on the R27, from the city centre. It is next to the Milnerton golf course, has a nice square with Woolworth supermarket, bottle store, restaurant and video shop. Sunset Beach is the only suburb in Cape Town where you don't need to cross a main road to go to the beach, from which you can admire the most beautiful view of Table Mountain. Sunset Beach is also a famous windsurfing and kite surfing paradise when the southeaster blow. In Cape Town with a nice road system, the most tourist attraction are not more then 20 minutes driving, exception made of Cape Point that can take up to one hour.

I'm far enough to give you your privacy but I'm there when you need me. Let's not forget to mention my weekly barbecue with at the end home made limoncello.

Ned's How-To Guide
Welcome to Ned's How-To-Guide! From the normal to the far-fetched, Ned will tell you how to do it! Badly need to get kicked out of a supermarket? The answers are here! Want advice on how to propose to your significant other? Ned will give it to you with honesty, sincerity, and straight-forward tongue and cheek.
How to...
survive when someone is about to lose it:
If their fists are clenched:
A. If they are pounding their fists on tables or other inanimate objects:
Hide all panes of glass. Offer them a pillow you wouldn't mind sacrificing. At last resort, hand them a stress ball and run.
B. If they are pounding their fists against others:
Find a pane of glass. Give it to them and then safely exit the building with as many survivors as you can.
C. If they are pounding their fists on you:
Poke them in the eye and run. Any hulk like violence will result in harder fists. But running without violence will make you the prey. If you poke them in the eye they will be hurt, confused, and shocked, and may have trouble seeing which direction you run.
If they are strangling the air:
Place an extremely cute and fluffy teddy bear in their grip. Make sure no children are watching.
If they are cursing, swearing, or otherwise crying profanities to the heavens:
Do not try to reason with them. Their vocabulary reflects their level of intelligence, and their level of intelligence reflects their level of restraint, and their level of restraint reflects your chances of survival if you were to join in any 'conversation' with them.
If they suck in a sudden breath as if attempting to steal all of your air:
Give the greatest yawn you can manage. They will be forced to do the same, thus relaxing their jaw and letting the breath out before they can use it to blow out your eardrums.
If steam is coming out of their ears:
Call a doctor. Or maybe the fire department. Or make sure you didn't eat whatever they ate.
If they are stomping across the room:
Hide excessive amounts of bubble wrap under the rug.
If they are tearing paper to shreds:
Hand them a head of cabbage and get the cooking on its way.
And finally, if they are about to overturn a table:
Throw a blanket over their head. While the blanket is over their head, quietly and swiftly leave the room. Overturning a table is a visual effect, and they will not continue with a blanket covering their eyes. And when they realize that you have gone, they will not overturn the table without any witnesses.
~Problems solved~

They said the sun will shine on Sunday July 15 but the wet weather that has ruined May and June will continue until the end of August.
Piers Corbyn, founder of long-range forecasting firm WeatherAction, said: "You can forget about summer, the forecast is terrible.
"It's hard to find a day where it won't rain somewhere. The best chance for a dry day is July 15 so plan your picnic for then.
Scroll down for more...
"There will be some improvements in August but really we will not have a summer this year."
The Met Office is blaming cooler sea temperatures in the Pacific Ocean prompted by the El Nino weather system for bringing a depression over the country.
Met Office forecaster Adam Scaife said: "If our forecast is correct then unusually cloudy windy conditions may continue this summer."
And weatherman John Kettley, founder of the British Weather Service, added: "The Great British Summer was those glorious few weeks back in April."
Although scientists say it is impossible to blame a single weather incident on global warming, senior church leaders have said the floods were almost certainly the result of man-made climate change.
The Church of England bishops said the recent floods which claimed seven lives and deluged thousands of homes were the result of "moral degradation".
While stressing that those affected were innocent victims, they claimed the devastation was the consequence of the West's decision to ignore Biblical teaching, with an "arrogant" world "reaping what we have sown".
Last week's floods affected 27,000 homes. Despite heavy showers over the weekend, the feared return of the floods failed to materialise.
The Rt Rev Graham Dow, the Bishop of Carlisle, whose district suffered horrendous flooding two years ago, believes the extreme weather is the direct consequence of mankind's lack of respect "for each other, for the planet and for God".
He said: "This is a strong and definite judgment because the world has been arrogant in going its own way.
"We are reaping the consequences of our moral degradation, as well as environmental damage."
The Bishop of Liverpool, the Rt Rev James Jones, said people no longer saw floods as an "act of God".
"However, we are now reaping what we have sown," he told the Sunday Telegraph.
"If we live in a profligate way then there are going to be consequences."
Yesterday the Met Office confirmed that June was on course to be the wettest since records began 93 years ago.
Today, most of Britain will have sunshine and showers which could be heavy with thundery storms, particularly in the North.
The Met Office lifted its severe weather warning for England and Wales, while military personnel on standby in case of further heavy rain were stood down.
There are still four severe flood warnings in places, all covering the swollen River don in Yorkshire. Elsewhere across Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the Midlands river levels are falling.
Tomorrow, southern England and Wales will have persistent rain with showers elsewhere which will ease off a little on Wednesday.
The wet weather has heightened concerns over the building of homes on flood plains.
Developers and local councils will face "stern action" if they try to build on such areas, the head of the Environment Agency said yesterday.
• A national flood centre was set up over the weekend in Worcestershire, following complaints that last week's emergency response was chaotic.Reuse content

The latest news from academia, regulators
research labs and other things of interest
|Posted: Sep 03, 2015
Stick and slip
|But a recent paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ("On the question of whether lubricants fluidize in stickslip friction") suggests this model is incorrect. The findings arose out of research by the group of Prof. Jacob Klein of the Weizmann Institutes Materials and Interfaces Department, with the collaboration of Prof. Arie Yeredor of Tel Aviv University.
|The sound of a violin arises from a type of friction known as "stick-slip"
|The group including research student Irit Rosenhek-Goldian and associate staff scientist Dr. Nir Kampf, both members of Kleins lab tested this assumption in an ideal system: two perfectly smooth surfaces separated by a thin layer of lubricating material. The material in question contains molecules organized in layers, totaling around four to five nanometers in thickness. The idea was that as the surfaces stuck and then slipped, the lubricant molecules would also stick as a solid and then liquefy and slip over one another fluidly.
|The shift from solid to liquid should entail another change: When a material is solid, it is generally denser than its liquid form, says Klein. Thus, when the lubricating material turns liquid, it should physically expand by around ten percent; that is, the thin lubricant layer should expand by around 0.5 nanometers. But where there should have been a bit more space between the surfaces in the slip stage, there was none. The measurements, which were accurate down to 0.1 nanometers, revealed no change at all in the volume of the lubricant as it went from stick to slip and back again. The conclusion: The lubricant does not change from solid to liquid after all.
|Since friction and wear account for billions of dollars of loss annually, a better understanding of the basic science underlying lubrication may lead to significant improvements in both biomedical and industrial applications.

The guys at Moto—who have been working with Phonebloks—claim that they "want to do for hardware what the Android platform has done for software." Ambitious. Clearly, Google's influence is showing. But, more seriously, the idea is to create a third-party developer ecosystem for hardware, which would presumably make it easier for people to chip in to the sector: producing a camera here, say, or a GPS module there. Companies could play to their strengths, deliver straight to consumers, but not have to make an entire phone.
In turn, that could make for more versatile, personalized phones, with the user getting to decide what they need and don't; what their phone can and can't do, how it looks and how long it lasts.
I started a thread about this a few months back and some people didn't think anyone would try it.
I think people are missing how completely different this was to the phoneblocks idea. This isn't a fully customisable, interchangeable grid of possibilities like initially state. This is, all things considered a regular phone, but with parts that can be replaced when broken. Yes the elements can be 'upgraded' but their function remains in the same in the same manner that you can put a better graphics card in a pci-e slot. So they can get away with saying 'open' and 'customisable' because it is, technically. With that in mind, how is this so unviable? With some good marketing, this would prevent a lot more waste, and potentially be a better phone.
So what happens when you have your phone perfectly set up and a faster processor comes out that you want and the block takes up more room?
Why don't they just let you build the phone you want online, produce it, and ship it to you like a computer.
Not cost effective?
quote:Well, there is a lot of price overlap, and many computers cost a lot more than phones, but in general it costs more to make things small.
Why are phones more expensive than computers?
As a nerd, this is sooo cool but i doubt they pull it off
Who knows what Motorola has up it's sleeve..They seem to be gaining a lot of publicity but it's still motorola..we shall see
Or, it doesn't even have to be a phone at all. It is really just an open platform that can be transformed into any sort of computing device you want. Load one up with just storage and a ports module and make an HTPC. Or plug in a large screen and make a desktop out of it.
This what I want. A single device that I can customize as a phone, a tablet, or a PC depending on whatever I need at that particular moment.
I am imagining dropping this on a crowded street and the pieces go flying everywhere.

It took a while for Cody Ross to sign on with a new team, but he's getting to stay close to home on a three-year deal. The Arizona Diamondbacks signed Ross, according to Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News. Ross lives in Scottsdale, Ariz. during the offseason. Ross' contract is worth $26 million according to Jim Bowden of ESPN.com. Ross joins a now-crowded corner outfield with Justin Upton and Jason Kubel. Ross played center field as a starter in 2010 with the Marlins, but he's better in left or right field. Ross primarily played right field with the Red Sox in 2012 as he hit .267 with 22 home runs and 81 RBIs. The Diamondbacks will be the seventh team Ross has played for during his nine-year career.

Hi, My wife and I purchased this home and spent many hours working on it to make it a nice comfortable place to vacation. Every year we add something new, from the $10,000 bathroom to new appliances. We have five children and love coming to the lake house with beautiful scenery and being on the water with our boat. We want you to enjoy our house and have lasting family memories. Tim and Chris
Conesus Lake is close to Rochester and Geneseo and has great restaurants and fishing. The water is warm, the people are nice and it is a fun lake to come to. Minnehans Fun Center is great for the kids with go karts and mini golf and batting cages.
We chose Conesus Lake because of the quaintness of the lake and area. The little convenience store, Shoreless Acres is adorable. The lake is beautiful. The afternoon breezes are refreshing. The kids love to fish off the dock. Someday we will retire on the lake.

She left Britain on a Calais-bound ferry from Dover, and eight days later she was back, touching down at Gatwick airport yesterday afternoon on an easyJet flight from Bordeaux.
Megan Stammers, 15, from Eastbourne, East Sussex, had travelled to the wine town in south-west France by train from Paris, with her maths teacher, Jeremy Forrest.
Unlike the schoolgirl, Forrest, 30, remained in France yesterday, where he was remanded in custody at Gradignan prison on suspicion of child abduction.
It was understood Megan, who boarded the flight wearing black jeans and a baggy black jumper, was reunited with her mother, Danielle Wilson, in private. It emerged earlier that she had used her mother's passport to run away with Mr Forrest on 21 September, raising questions about the strictness of security at British and French borders.
Mr Forrest will appear in court on Tuesday before returning to face charges in the UK, "without the need for protracted extradition proceedings", said his lawyer, Phil Smith, of Tuckers Solicitors.
The pair had driven from Calais to Paris in Mr Forrest's car, a black Ford Fiesta, which is thought to have been abandoned near a mainline train station, before they made the 400-mile journey to Bordeaux.
Mr Forrest's lawyers said he is upset but is being treated well and with some sympathy. His co-operation means he will avoid lengthy extradition proceedings, although experts say it will be several days before he returns to the UK.
The couple were discovered on Friday lunchtime, during an afternoon stroll down Bordeaux's pedestrianised shopping street, the Rue Sainte-Catherine.
A legal source yesterday revealed that Mr Forrest's parents had tipped off the police that their son was likely to be in Bordeaux, a long-time favourite family holiday destination. On arriving in the town, Mr Forrest had begun to look for cash-in-hand bar work. A local had spotted the teacher, who plays in a rock band, and his pupil on Friday morning, then contacted French police.
Sussex Police yesterday declined to comment beyond issuing a statement, saying: "Specially trained officers are supporting the victim and family. There is no ongoing risk to the victim or other people."
Neighbours in Eastbourne were delighted that Megan, who attended the Bishop Bell Church of England school, had returned home. Kersti Barnes, 38, whose daughter Casie, 15, is a friend of Megan's from junior school, said: "We're absolutely made up that she's safe. We're just overwhelmed. They're a fantastic family. They now need to be left alone to deal with Meg."
It was a different story in Ringmer, near Lewes, where Mr Forrest lived with his photographer wife, Emily. The windows of the Forrests' house, where a new conservatory was added three weeks ago, were covered in sheets of paper and the blinds drawn. Mrs Forrest stayed inside with her parents. She hadn't left the house since Saturday last week, not even answering the door when flowers were delivered.
At Gatwick airport yesterday, measures were taken to protect the teenager from media attention. The easyJet flight was diverted to the north terminal. Two Sussex police officers waited at arrivals, while Megan was taken through a different exit to avoid a waiting press pack.
One passenger, Robin Blanch, 67, from Uckfield, East Sussex, said: "There were people looking down the cabin to see if they could see [Megan]. But the only sign she was there at all was the television cameras in Bordeaux airport and the plane's diversion to a different terminal."
There has been controversy over Megan's school's apparent lack of urgency in investigating after concerns about the maths teacher were first raised.
A police spokesman said they would talk to Megan after she had spent some time with her mother and stepfather, Martin Stammers.

In a report issued Wednesday, the National Conference of State Legislatures says the law sets unrealistic expectations and defies common-sense notions of how to rate schools.
The report comes as legislatures in several states consider laws limiting the federal government's role in schools.
Education groups welcomed the report, but Ray Simon, the U.S. assistant secretary for elementary and secondary education, said the department would "continue to work with every state to address their concerns and make this law work for their children."
He said the report "could be interpreted as wanting to reverse the progress we've made. ... Children must be challenged to reach their full potential, not told to settle for someone else's lowered expectations. No Child Left Behind is bringing new hope and new opportunity to families throughout America, and we will not reverse course."
The report's authors say they are merely proposing needed flexibility and say educators and parents nationwide have found the law's principle of "adequate yearly progress," or AYP, unworkable.
"We are not a lone voice in the wilderness here," says New York State Sen. Steve Saland, a Republican.
Saland and others say states should be allowed to rate schools by how much students learn over the course of a year rather than by whether one class, for instance, fifth-graders, surpasses last year's.
This week, lawmakers in Utah are expected to debate a bill that would give state officials greater control over how they judge schools under the law, in effect allowing them to ignore federal requirements if state money is used to comply with the law.
In Congress, though, Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio, criticized groups that want it "both ways."
"They want the funding No Child Left Behind is providing, but they don't want to meet the high standards that come with it," Boehner said in a statement. "This should not be acceptable to anyone."
The Utah bill passed unanimously in the state's House of Representatives. Utah Rep. Kory Holdaway, a special-education teacher and Republican member of the National Conference of State Legislature's task force on No Child Left Behind, says the measure is expected to pass the Senate and be signed by Utah's Republican governor.
"I think it's got pretty broad support. I haven't heard anybody against it."

It seems that the construction industry cannot build housing quickly enough in Singapore. The island has a government that believed promoting building projects was a good way to prevent the construction industry and the real estate been too badly affected by recession. That strategy meant that Singapore has had several shopping mall and various condo developments completed in this decade already. Thus the building of condos at The Martin Residence is another part of the strategy to have more housing available for the population of the country. When finished it will provide 500 housing units in a relatively small parcel of land. Its developers won the lease tender from the government as they placed the highest bid.
The Martin Residence Guocoland
Given that there is a shortage of housing on the island you could be mistaken in believing that any housing development like Martin Residence Guocoland is going to sell its completed units without too much of a problem. However experience has shown that condos sell better and faster when the complex they are contained within are in more desirable locations, or are within a short distance of such locations. The Martin Residences without a doubt are close to places that their residents will want to go to for a variety of reasons.
The Martin Residence Martin Place
To begin with the residents of the new complex will find that they can go shopping easily enough from their new condos for Martin Residence Guocoland. They can choose between the Concorde Shopping Centre, the Central Mall, or the Robertson Walk Shopping Centre. There is even easy access to these centres with public transport via the Great World City MRT station. That also means that residents will find the commute to work in the centre of Singapore straightforward enough. There are some high performing schools in the area too, such as Outram Secondary School, and River Valley Primary School.

Location: Corn Insects and Crop Genetics Research
Project Number: 5030-21220-005-00-D
Project Type: In-House Appropriated
Start Date: Apr 9, 2013
End Date: Apr 8, 2018
1. Identify and characterize soybean defense genes, and generate information that can be used to improve resistance or tolerance to pathogens that cause economic loss in soybeans. 2. Identify and characterize soybean genes that are involved in control of nutrient homeostasis to promote tolerant responses to abiotic stress, and generate information that can be used to improve resistance or tolerance to abiotic stress. 3. Generate and compare sequence information among cultivars, wild soybean relatives and other legumes to discover novel alleles that can be used to improve important agronomic traits.
This project will provide data and resources that will increase soybean production by mitigating losses due to pests, pathogens and nutrient stress and by identifying genetic factors that increase yield. To study disease resistance, we will focus on the soybean-Phakopsora pachyrhizi pathosystem, using expression analyses and virus induced gene silencing to identify signaling networks required for resistance. To tackle nutrient stress, we will use iron deficiency chlorosis as a model. We will use expression analyses and virus induced gene silencing to improve our understanding of the signaling networks controlling iron homeostasis in soybean. Finally, we will use molecular, genomic and bioinformatic techniques to take a retrospective look at soybean production over the last 80 years. Using these tools, we can determine how breeders have continually increased soybean yield over time, largely before the introduction of molecular techniques. A review of soybean's breeding history will impact how we breed soybeans in the future.


text: Technology Helps Canadians Act on their Inspiration and Reduce Stress TORONTO, Nov. 15, 2012 /CNW/ - Line-ups at the checkout. Parking lot congestion. Never-ending holiday traffic. It's no surprise that Canadians are looking for alternatives to traditional holiday shopping. In fact, this year, almost half of Canadians (45 per cent 1) will shop via mobile or online 2 for part or all of their holiday gift-buying. The reason? Convenience (40 per cent), to avoid in-store hassles (34 per cent), to save time (19 per cent) and to save money (seven per cent). "Canadians, like shoppers around the world, are increasingly looking to their mobile devices to solve their holiday dilemmas," said eBay Canada Country Manager Andrea Stairs. "In the past two years, we've seen the value of eBay mobile transactions increase from $2 billion to $10 billion globally. Nothing can compare to having the world's largest marketplace at your fingertips! No matter where you are, or what you're doing, you can turn inspiration into delight in seconds on the eBay Mobile app." Inspired on-the-go shopping While a third (31 per cent) of Canadians surveyed said they tended to shop when inspiration struck, a similar number (27 per cent) said they struggled to remember perfect gift ideas. "We've all had the experience of coming up with a great gift idea only to have forgotten it by the time we've arrived at the mall. Now, with eBay Mobile, you can act on your flash of inspiration at any time and from virtually anywhere. Buy your husband a cashmere sweater while watching your son play hockey or nab that hard-to-find toy while in line for coffee - the possibilities are endless," said Stairs.

Slither Round the Moon
The cow jumps, but I?
I slither and slide,
I cover the moon all up
With my slime-
That way you know it's mine.
The craters are nooks
And they're ever so cute
But sometimes I find myself
Slipping right through-
And I fall off the moon (my moon).

After a three week break in Major League Soccer action, both FC Dallas and the Columbus Crew showed that they still need some more time before they hit fifth gear.
On a hot and muggy afternoon at Crew Stadium, neither side could find a goal as the match finished in a scoreless draw. The match was moved to Sunday at 2 p.m. after being postponed due to a fan being injured during an inclement weather delay just prior to the original kickoff time at 8 p.m. on Saturday evening.
Despite the conditions, the game was not devoid of chances. However, glaring errors on both sides kept the ball from going in, as well as strong performances from FC Dallas defender Matt Hedges, Crew defender Eric Gehrig, and Crew goalkeeper Steve Clark.
Both teams were missing key players for the match, though FC Dallas may have felt the recent loss of Fabian Castillo and Blas Perez to suspension more than the injury issues through midfield.
Rookie forward Tesho Akindele had two chances that were begging to be put home, but somehow couldn't finish either of them. Teammate Andres Escobar drove down the left side of the box in the 52nd minute and found a space between Gehrig and Crew centerback Michael Parkhurst to play a ball to Akindele. With only the goalkeeper to beat, Akindele somehow pushed his shot wide.
Five minutes later, Akindele again had a chance in front of goal after a great ball was played in from the right by Je-Vaughn Watson but the rookie somehow fired his shot over the bar.
Crew forward Jairo Arrieta, who worked hard all day to hold the ball up for his teammates, was equally poor in front of goal. His worst miss came in the 84th minute, when winger Alvaro Rey sent a ball in to Arrieta and after his first attempt was blocked, Arrieta's second attempt was slammed into the side netting, despite only needing to just lift it above the goalkeeper Chris Seitz.
When the final whistle blew, both head coaches – Gregg Berhalter of the Crew and Oscar Pareja of FC Dallas – shook their heads and went to shake hands halfway down the sideline, knowing that the outcome was two points dropped for their squads.
new to MLS. A few questions. How come they are playing during the World Cup? Wouldn't teams with internationals be at a disadvantage in these matches? Is it just a case of not being able to extend the season?
Also, when will MLS adapt the relegation system like Mexico has (and South America, Europe etc)? In Mexico i think the worst two teams go down to another league and the top two come up to LigaMX. Makes for a very interesting and exciting end to a season.
You answered the first question yourself. MLS season including playoffs already runs into December which was almost disasterous with MLS cup played on a completely frozen field.
Just mentioning pro/rel on any US soccer site could cause a 100 comment meltdown. Bottom line is while the league is growing and charging $50 to $100 million dollars for a franchise no one is going to risk seeing their investment cut by 50 to 75% by being relegated. Perhaps far in the future.
Never relegation? I don't think I'll bother with MLS then. Plenty of soccer between LigaMX and BPL to watch.
Thanks for the reply.
Not sure if this is a serious question. but I think there could be pro/rel some point in the future though probably not for a while. The "people pay $50m to $100m so it'll never happen" argument overlooks that people already invest tons of money in leagues where there is pro/rel now and it also overlooks the fact that relegated teams can get promoted again. I don't see why being relegated to some sort of MLS2 would decrease a franchise's value by some huge amount when they can just bounce back the next season.
Llort… I wouldn't blame not wanting to watch MLS because of del/pro…. just say you don't want to watch it. Period. Don't make excuses. sounds like you already follow great soccer leaguesand that is cool! enjoy LigaMX and BPL….
I don't see what rel/pro has to do with supporting your local MLS team, unless he's international and has no dog in the fight. We don't need new fans to get passionate about the league, just their particular team…change will come in time.
Until we get to the point where the money (when there's actually enough to support rel/pro) can trickle down to the clubs that would really need it in order to stay competitive, we won't be able to support a rel/pro system, no matter how much the fans and advertisers want the added drama. It's shown year after year that we have lower league teams that can go toe-to-toe with MLS, in the USOC. The biggest problem I see is with the egos of the leagues in reference to setting the order of leagues. Naturally MLS will be at the top, but everything else is for grabs. The USSF will have to take charge of being the arbiter of the new league tiers and putting people in their place.
This is why SBI needs forums…how did an article about a 0-0 draw turn into a debate on the merits of instituting an MLS rel/pro system?

I love the watch. If you like diamonds and big face watches this is the watch for you. Wherever I where this watch I am always complimented. YOU WILL BE SATISFIED. You will have to remove some links, but other than that for the price the watch is well worth it. I wore it in Vegas and everybody at the tables were complimenting me on it. Very flashy!

wikiHow to Perform a Vitamin E Oil Face Treatment
As you grow older, your skin ages. But thankfully, you can use natural methods to help your appearance. Many medical treatments (Botox which is harmful for health, Dermabrasion, Microdermabrasion, Chemical Peels, face lifts which can be dangerous, and more) work and some are harmful for your health and dangerous. Many medical treatments can be costly. Fortunately, there are many natural procedures to limit wrinkles, lines, and make your face look younger. Vitamin E kills free radicals (a type of skin damage) [1] and improves overall appearance and best of all, it's natural.
1Obtain a bottle or a few a capsules of Vitamin E Oil. The higher the IU (international units), the stronger it is. Try getting a 56,000 IU, but any number in the thousands will work for the oil (but the lower it is, it's not as good).
2Make sure your face is clean and dry. The oil will be less effective on your face if it is dirty. If it is wet, the oil won't go on your face. Also, be sure there is no makeup on your face because this creates a barrier on your face.
4Apply it to your face. You can use a brush or tissue to apply it to your face (optional). To apply capsules, open with a pin and rub oil on face. Leave it on for at least 15 or more minutes. (Note: Vitamin E Oil can be thick and greasy.)
5Rinse off the oil from your face. If it doesn't come off, you can wash your face using a cleanser. You can use Baby Shampoo or a Baby Facial Wash on your face in place of a cleanser because it is gentler.
6After cleansing, you can use a toner (optional). Toners contain astringents, which are generally alcohol-based, tighten the skin and pores and remove excess oil.[2] They also remove any dirt that you missed when cleansing. Try not to use a toner with too much alcohol, as this can be very harsh and drying to your face.
7Dry your face with a clean towel or cloth. Make sure you wash your towel(s) or cloth(s) 2-3 times a month.
8Apply a moisturizer (optional). This is to hydrate your face after washing or rinsing and after using a toner (if you used a toner) on your face. Moisturizers restore any moisture you stripped off during the previous steps. Even if your skin is oily. It is still good to finish up with a moisturizer so your skin doesn't compensate for dehydrated skin and produce excess oil.[3]
Community Q&A
Can I use these methods on my body as well?wikiHow ContributorAbsolutely! You can use vitamin E oil all over your body, not just your face.
Can I go to bed with vitamin E oil on my face?Yes, but it will be sticky.
How many times should this treatment be applied?wikiHow ContributorIt's completely up to you, there's nothing harmful in Vitamin E, use it as frequently as you want.
Is it useful for people with normal to oily skin types?wikiHow ContributorYes. Even if you have oily skin, using oil in your skin care routine is beneficial (especially under your eyes - this area gets the least amount of moisture).
Would using this for black spots have any side effects?
Can I use almond oil as a toner/moisturizer after washing it?
After I use a Vitamin E capsule on my face, is it compulsory to use toner or moisturizer?
What can I use to reduce redness from pimples?
Can this be applied to dry skin?
- It is recommended to use a moisturizer after, because the treatment can be a bit harsh on the face.
- The higher the International Units, the better the Vitamin E oil is (for your skin).
- It is recommended to use a toner because it removes excess oil, shrinks pores, tightens the skin, closes pores, and does much more for your face.[4]
- Exfoliating your face unclogs pores, letting in moisture (including the Vitamin E Oil).[5]
- Make sure you do not have an allergic reaction when Vitamin E oil is applied to your face (itchiness, irritation, inflammation, etc.). If you experience one or more of the symptoms, discontinue the use of Vitamin E Oil.
- Do not ingest the high IU oil (400 IU and over is dangerous). Vitamin E Toxicity may increase risk for stroke and cause internal bleeding.[6]
Things You'll Need

- Cleanser, Baby Shampoo, or Baby Face Wash (if using)
- Face Towel or Cloth

NMSU Officer Cleared in Campus Shooting of Student
The officer shot an armed student who was making threats.
By CS Staff · January 5, 2017
The campus police officer involved in a shooting at a New Mexico State University apartment complex has been cleared of any wrongdoing.
A district attorney cleared NMSU Officer Jarrod Colliver for shooting an armed student in the leg in November.
Collins was responding to a report of a man with a gun on campus Nov. 14 when he confronted student Karsten Cuthair, 28, making threats and waving a handgun at the Chamisa Village apartments.
RELATED: Campus Safety's Top Videos of 2016
Body camera footage shows Colliver instructing Cuthair to drop his weapon from around a corner before firing two shots. One of those shots hit Cuthair in the leg and the suspect was taken into custody.
Cuthair was treated at University Medical Center for non-life threatening injuries and was released shortly afterward.
NMSU Police Chief Stephen Lopez said he was pleased with Colliver's response to the threat in a press conference shortly after the incident.
Dona Ana County District Attorney Mark D'Antonio said he reviewed footage from the officer's body worn camera (included below) before making his decision.
"After reviewing this case, we have concluded that the shooting of Karsten Cuthair by Officer Jarrod Colliver of the NMSU Police Department was justified," D'Antonio told cbs4local.com.

Improving Your House with Home Improvement Projects
Category : Blog
Your home will become your own when you've finished customizing it for your lifestyle. Everyone can buy a house, but few people understand that this is a private place, that you should be able to reflect your style and personality.
If you're wondering how to do this, the answer is very easy. All you have to do is look for those home improvement projects that could help you transform the interior as you want it – maybe a new color for a room, a new bathroom for your family or even a new dressing.
Let's see what remodeling means for a house and how you can use it to improve it.
Painting a Room
Painting a room is a remodeling project that you can do alone, without having to ask for professional help. You might need help with moving the furniture around the chamber, but in rest, this is something very easy to do, and you'll also save some money. Instead of paying someone to do this, you could get all the materials that you need and start this project alone.
You can always paint the rooms in white, as this offers the illusion of a bigger space, but you can also choose light colors, like light beige, or blue or something else that you like. You'll need a paintbrush too and some big plastic coverings to use them on the furniture. Bring all the furniture in the middle of the room and cover it. Once you've done this, you can start painting.
Whatever color you choose for the walls, make sure the ceiling remains white.
Remodeling the Basement
The basement is usually a big enough place to offer storage and deposit area. However, you could transform that into usable space, because the more room your house has, the greater its value will be.
It's an expensive project, and you will need the help of an architect if the house has some walls in the basement and you want to take them down. If you want to do it alone, you will need to do a thorough research, because it implies more than just painting and adding furniture.
You will have to insulate the walls of the basement and ensure that there is a working electrical installation throughout the basement, as you'll need sockets and lighting fixtures. You will also have to choose the right furniture for this area and transform it into whatever you want – a playing area for your children, a game room for you and your friends or even a new dressing to store all your clothes.
Making a Laundry Room
If your house has enough space, you can add a laundry room next to the bathroom. It can be indeed quite expensive, as you'll need to create a room, but the result will be worth it. You can install there the washing machine and the drying machine, along with cabinets and shelves for storing different items.
The most complicated part of this project is to fix the water pipes for the washing machine. It's better to call a professional and licensed plumber to do this because you want everything to work correctly, and you don't need broken pipes in your house.
Because this is a construction project, you might need special construction license, so you need to check out with an architect and your local authorities to see what kind of papers you need for doing this. It's true that it will increase the value of your house if you plan to sell it, but until you get there, you need to work within the limits of the law.

Gunfire rings out often in the neighborhood, he says, a regular reminder of the crime wave that has this city of 77,000 on pace to double its homicides in just three years, and has already shattered a nearly 20-year record for killings. With 59 homicides so far this year, the murder rate is on par with levels seen in Haiti in the chaotic aftermath of the 2010 earthquake.
"A bullet has no name. If somebody shoots and I'm walking, I could be hit," Johnson says. "People are afraid right now. You can see it in their faces."
The crime surge coincides with new census data identifying Camden, long battered by vanishing industry, as the most impoverished city in the U.S., with 42 percent of residents under the poverty line, and an average family income of $21,191. If trends persist, Camden may soon hold the grim title of both the country's poorest and most dangerous city.
As residents decry the violence, local leaders are readying a radical plan that they call the only practical solution at hand to calm the streets: the dismantling of the Camden Police Department and the outsourcing of policing to a new, cheaper force run by the county government, to be called the Camden Metro Division. They say the closure of the 141-year-old department and the creation of a new agency is necessary because the existing union-negotiated police contract is no longer sustainable in a time of deep budget deficits.
The plan was sold to Camden residents as a security fix: by firing the existing police force, they were told, millions of savings would be redirected into hiring about 130 new uniformed officers -- a 50 percent increase over current staffing.

Chaos in rebel-controlled Yemen has left the Pentagon unable to monitor the vast arsenal it has supplied the country's military.
The nation has been left leaderless after Houthi rebels seized the presidential palace last month amid fierce shelling, and prompted the resignation of the Western-backed President Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi.
The 10 most conflicted countries in the world
The 10 most conflicted countries in the world
1/10 South Sudan
The world's newest country is also the least peaceful nation in the world, according to the 2014 Global Peace Index
2/10 Iraq
The rise of Isis in the country has led to much unrest and violence, with thousands displaced from the minority Yazidi sect
3/10 Somalia
The nation has been fraught with civil war and famine. Most recently the military have been fighting Islamist insurgents Al-Shabaab

4/10 Sudan
Since the country divided into two, there has been continuing unrest. This year the Sudanese army and rebels engaged in heavy fighting near the city of Kadugli
Getty Images
5/10 Central African Republic
The nation has endured a violent civil war since 2012. Last year the government fell to rebels and the United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said the situation in the country was precarious
6/10 Democratic Republic of the Congo
Civil wars have kept this country high in the ranks as one of the most conflicted places on the globe

7/10 Pakistan
Political corruption and instability have dogged Pakistan, as have conflicts with India over the disputed Kashmir region

8/10 North Korea
Despite its secretive nature, the Communist state has ended up as one of the most conflicted nations in the world due to internal problems
9/10 Russia
Russia has annexed Crimea and been accused by the West of arming rebels who have taken over parts of eastern Ukraine - which has led to the ongoing conflict
10/10 Nigeria
Since 2002 the militant Islamist movement Boko Haram has caused much violence in the country in a bid to establish Sharia law and abolish the secular government. This year the terrorist group kidnapped 276 schoolgirls, leading to international criticism of the government's lack of action

The rebels, aligned with Iran, are now said to control the Yemeni military's arms bases, giving them effective control of US-provided weaponry, including artillery and tanks, supplied as part of a counter al-Qaeda strategy avoiding use of US troops on the ground.
The Houthi official slogan and emblem includes the words: "Death to America, death to Israel, damnation to the Jews".
A US defense official told the Guardian the unrest has "limited our ability to conduct routine end-use monitoring checks and inspections we would normally perform".
Even though US military officials have not released specific details of the equipment it can no longer track, it has supplied an estimated $400m worth to Yemen since 2006, including night-vision gear, surveillance equipment, military radios and transport aircraft.
The allegiance of Yemen's military remains unclear, as the nation experiences violence and unrest from both the Shia Houthis and al-Qaeda, which has vowed to fight the rebels in defence of the Sunni population.
The US training of Yemeni military, particularly on its surveillance drones, began before Barack Obama became president but has increased under him.
Last month Obama defended his administration's drone-based strategy against al-Qaeda militants in Yemen, saying the alternative would be to deploy U.S. troops, which was not sustainable.
"It is not neat and it is not simple, but it is the best option that we have," he said.
The US military has also propped up the Yemeni security apparatus, particularly its special operations forces.
In exchange for arms and training from the US, two successive Yemeni leaders – both now deposed – have opened their country to the drone strikes and other counter-terrorism operations conducted by the CIA and the Joint Special Operations command.
The US military has indicated it is willing to engage with the Houthi rebels.
John Kirby, the Pentagon spokesman, said in a press conference last week that that it is "accurate to say that the Houthis, as participants in these events, will certainly have reason to want to speak to international partners and the international community about their intentions.
"Given the political uncertainty, it's fair to say that US government officials are in communication with various parties in Yemen about what is a very fluid and complex political situation."
The anonymous defense official told the Guardian the US would seek to regain its monitoring ability over Yemen's US-provided arsenal as quickly as it could.
"We continue to monitor the situation in Yemen closely and, as the security environment permits, we will continue working with the Government of Yemen to ensure equipment granted or sold to the Government of Yemen by the United States remains accounted for," the official said.
In 2011, the UK government licensed the sale of £160,000 worth of bullets and body armour to the Yemeni army, after Prince Andrew met the country's Prime Minister for trade talks.
According to the Campaign Against Arms Trade, the UK's coalition government licensed £3.5m worth of weapons to Yemen in its first four years, including 400 assault rifles.
Yemen is also on the UK's countries of concern list for human rights and democracy.
Andrew Smith of Campaign Against Arms Trade said: "Weapons have a long shelf-life and can easily change hands.
"The lifespan of a weapon is often longer than that of the governments it is being sold to, and once they have left the UK there is very little oversight. It is extremely hard to know what they are being used for.
"The last thing that is needed in a war-torn region is more weapons."
A video emerged last year apparently showing Isis intercepting US weapons intended for Kurdish fighters.Reuse content

The fossil record provides the primary source of data for calibrating the origin of clades. Although minimum ages of clades are given by the oldest preserved fossil, these underestimate the true age, which must be bracketed by probabilistic methods based on multiple fossil occurrences. Although most of these methods assume uniform preservation rates, this assumption is unsupported over geological timescales. On geologically long timescales (more than 10 Myr), the origin and cessation of sedimentary basins, and long-term variations in tectonic subsidence, eustatic sea level and sedimentation rate control the availability of depositional facies that preserve the environments in which species lived. The loss of doomed sediments, those with a low probability of preservation, imparts a secular trend to fossil preservation. As a result, the fossil record is spatially and temporally non-uniform. Models of fossil preservation should reflect this non-uniformity by using empirical estimates of fossil preservation that are spatially and temporally partitioned, or by using indirect proxies of fossil preservation. Geologically, realistic models of preservation will provide substantially more reliable estimates of the origination of clades.
