Date of Stay: June, 2016
The park setting is lovely, treed and natural, but within the city limits, so it is close to everything. There is a nice rec hall for activities in case of rain. Staff are friendly and helpful. The park is kept clean and neat. We have stayed here before in a motorhome and enjoyed the park. We will come back in the future.
Date of Stay: September, 2015
What a gem this park is! The owners have done an incredible job upgrading the park since they purchased it. They are so friendly and helpful. We camped here with our group and the owners go out of their way to work with groups and make everyone feel at home. The restrooms and showers are exceptionally clean, as is the whole park. We will return.
Date of Stay: July, 2015
Our group has stayed here in years past (see 2012 review), but management has changed. New management did not honor the price we were quoted when the reservation was made. Also, camping fees for the entire stay are now charged when reservations are made. Cancellation policy has also changed but to their credit, they agreed to accept the original cancellation policy. If you are part of a group, get information on use of the rec hall, cancellation policy and pricing in writing. The rec hall was rented to an outside group without our knowledge ( that group ended up canceling, which allowed us the use of the rec hall and solved a problem for our group, as we eat all meals together). It is still a quiet oasis in a picturesque setting, but overall the experience was not the same as in previous years.
Date of Stay: June, 2015
Excellent campground on the edge of town. Camped here with a group. Staff very friendly and helpful. Our group had the use of the rec hall which was very helpful for meetings and meals. Lots of trees and a nice playground. We will return again next year.
Date of Stay: May, 2015
Our group camped here for 3 days. Staff and owners go out of their way to be helpful. Excellent campground with level sites. Fantastic rec hall for group use which is important to our group as we eat meals together. We had to change dates unexpectedly, and the owners worked with us and were very accommodating. We plan to return again next year.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
Stayed here with a group. This group has been to the park several times. Staff always friendly and helpful. Wonderful, wooded sites. In mountain setting. Easy access to park and nice pull-throughs. Excellent rec hall and pavilion for activities. Clean and picturesque. Cell phone use and Wi-Fi possible in the rec hall. A great place to get away from the hustle and bustle.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
Arrived in 95 degree heat. Given a site where electric on one side, water on the other. We could not reach both. Staff unable to change our site. Everything goes through corporate & their computers not responding. Sat in the heat for 45 minutes & finally got moved to a different site, but it was made clear to us the next time we visited this site would be more expensive. There will not be a next time. We were told some $$ would be refunded since we are Passport America members. Did not happen. Even spoke to someone in corporate who seemed sympathetic, but no refund ever sent. Park is old and needs work. Way too high price. Parent company Morgan RV Resorts kept leaving telemarketing messages for 2 months after our visit. Finally got that stopped. Recommend you look elsewhere for a park in this area.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
Wonderful park. Stayed 2 weeks. Very friendly and exceptionally helpful staff. Lots of activities for the kids. Very clean. Small lake for swimming,and canoeing, plus pool. Shaded sites. Within easy drive of Niagara Falls, Buffalo & Rochester. Quiet, countryside park. Our kids flew in and stayed in cabins near us. Staff couldn't have done more to make us welcome. Able to make reservations during the winter & this was the only park in the area to respond to my e-mails even though the park is closed in winter. Highly recommend.
Date of Stay: May, 2012
Stayed 1 night. Would like to have stayed longer. Friendly owners, clean park, escort to site. Nice pull through site with shade. Would stay again. Found in campground directory under Kingsport, TN.

Of Kansas and Car Crashes
The icy silence in the car lasted through the entire state of Kansas. There was no "look at that" because, honestly, there wasn't that much to see in Kansas. There was no "turn up the radio" because the radio in the cheap fixer-upper car had gone out back in Chicago. There was no "turn down the air conditioner" because that too had become useless in St. Louis. Nothing in this trip was going right. It was physically impossible for anything else to go wrong.
Finding the perfect car for two ghosts to drive was rather difficult. Most ghosts drove trains, and for obvious reasons. Trains were set on a track, they didn't have radios to break, and when the air conditioner went out, someone was there to fix it. The car the agency gave them was one giant nightmare (no…even a nightmare would have been terrified of this car). But at least it had been running from Chicago through Kansas…
Ambrose's feet were propped up on the dashboard as he glared out of the windshield. His black eyes were narrow slits behind his sunglasses, and his pale lips were pursed. His arms were folded tightly against his chest. He had been in this position for several hours now. To be frank (not literally, Frank was quite the unfriendly sort of ghost. Moping about the office, doing no one any good at all) it was driving Ichabod crazy.
After chewing on his own pallid lower lip for a few moments, Ichabod finally broke the silence. "Ambrose! Get your big feet off of my dashboard!" Ambrose removed his sunglasses and looked at Ichabod with malice. "Shut up. It's not your dashboard. It's OUR dashboard. The agency gave US this piece of junk! NOT YOU!"
"Great Ambrose! Fine! It's OUR car, OUR problem, and I suppose it'll be OUR fault when the agency finds out we got freakin' lost on our way to the job. I don't want you to try and pin this on ME! It's OUR problem now, not just mine!"
"Way to be mature Ichabod. You think you're hot stuff, don't you! Just because you died in a fookin' fire! Well, I'll let you know, just because you died in the Chicago fire three years before I drowned in the Mississippi river, it doesn't make you king of the freakin' world."
"OH! OH! FINE Ambrose! If you're going to throw around my death so disrespectfully, I'm going to pull this piece of garbage over and we're going to duke this out like the ghosts we are!"
Ichabod slammed on the breaks, but never made it over to the side of the road. Because the two ghosts had been arguing so passionately, they failed to notice the car driving towards them at an accelerated rate. They also failed to notice that the driver of said fast-moving car was a teenager. The last thing they failed to notice was the simple (and rather stupid fact) that Ichabod had begun to drive in the wrong lane, and that slamming on his breaks would cause the inevitable crash of the two cars.
And that's exactly what happened.
Ichabod and Ambrose's car was totaled, but there was no physical damage done to them, seeing as they were already dead. However, the teenager (one Owen Guy Mallon) and his car both ended up in rather nasty shape. The ruined and smoking wreckage of Owen's car smoldered on the side of the road, and Owen, ruined, smoking, and possibly smoldering as well, sat within it.
Ichabod and Ambrose looked at each other blankly. There wasn't a whole lot they could do in this situation. The dead were not supposed to ever actually touch the living, and as far as they could tell, the boy in the car was still alive. The two ghosts blinked. A pair of white eyes focused on a pair of black eyes, and both sets seemed to be confused as of what to do.
The road trip through Kansas had started innocently. The two of them would drive across Kansas to the border, find 125 January Lane (the pink house with the rhododendrons in the front yard) and haunt that house until the occupants saw that their best option was to move out of the house (it was that or lose their sanity completely). The house would then become a half-way house for way-ward ghosts. Simple enough. Ichabod and Ambrose were the best haunters in the business, and the Agency had trusted them. They just gave them a crappy car with no air-conditioning or radio. And even the dead get cranky when the temperature is over 100 degrees and the humidity was 90 percent.
And the two ghosts' irritable behavior had cost this poor boy his life.
Watching the birth of a ghost is a terrifying thing (if you're alive). If you're dead, it's one of the most interesting things you could hope to witness. As Owen's body caught fire and his heart stopped beating, a subtle mist oozed forth from the car. For a moment it seemed to hover in the air before shaping the form of a nineteen year old boy. Not a stitch of clothing on him (because clothing doesn't have a soul, it would be impossible for it to pass on into death as well), granted, but still, the boy was intact.
His skin was alabaster white, like most other ghosts'. His hair retained some of its black hue, though it was a far more muted black now, paler if you will. His eyes were two different colors, the right one being black, the left being white. But despite the two toned look of his eyes, both appeared to agree on one thing: Owen Mallon did not have a clue about what was going on.
Ichabod and Ambrose realized quickly the boy had passed on. They had watched it happen with the same sort of stunned look a new father gives the baby he holds in his arms. Not that killing a teenager was the same sort of event as a new baby being born, but watching Owen begin a new life was a bit rewarding. The two were proud, in a sick sort of way.
Ambrose and Ichabod stepped out of their crunched up car, and walked over to Owen. Ichabod stood on the left, Ambrose on the right. The two were silent for a few moments, just staring at the boy. Finally, Ambrose spoke up.
"So. How do you feel?"
Owen looked at Ambrose confused-idly for a moment. But the moment passed quickly, and his eyes filled with anger.
"How do you think I feel?! My car is totaled! Mom and Dad are going to kill me!"
Ichabod could hardly restrain his laughter. He snickered for a moment before regaining his composure, and even then, had to keep from smiling. Owen glared at Ichabod ferociously.
"What? Do you find this funny? You'd better pray I don't tell a state trooper you were driving on the wrong side of the road you freak!"
"No, it's not that…I swear." Ichabod said, suppressing more laughter. "It's just that…heh…that you said your mom and dad will kill you when they find out about the car."
"Yeah. And it's not funny so stop laughing!"
"You see the fact of the matter is…they won't kill you when they find out about the car. You can't be killed if you're already dead."

Customers of Wisconsin Public Service Corp. will receive a refund on their electric bills in the coming months under a proposal the Green Bay utility submitted to state energy regulators Friday.
WPS collected more money than it needed to for fuel burned in its power plants in 2010, resulting in its request for a refund totaling $1.27 million.
The onetime refund would amount to about 95 cents for a typical utility customer using 630 kilowatt-hours of power a month. The refund must be authorized by the state Public Service Commission, and the utility said it expected to issue the refunds in March and April.
WPS customers are receiving a refund of more than $14 million this year on fuel costs, with the refund being used to offset a rate increase that otherwise would have hit the utility's customers last month.
"The continued lower prices in the natural gas market and lower market prices for electric power in 2010 were the primary factors in creating these refund opportunities, " John Guntlisbergen, WPS manager of electric fuel cost recovery, in a statement.

Hardware Virtualization
Definition - What does Hardware Virtualization mean?
Hardware virtualization refers to the creation of virtual (as opposed to concrete) versions of computers and operating systems. This technology was developed by Intel and AMD for their server platforms and was designed to improve the performance of the processor and overcome simple virtualization challenges like translating instructions and memory addresses.
Hardware virtualization has many advantages because controlling virtual machines is much easier than controlling a physical server.
The term hardware virtualization is also known as hardware-assisted virtualization.
Techopedia explains Hardware Virtualization
Hardware virtulaization involves embedding virtual machine software into the hardware component of a server. The software used is known by several different names, although hypervisor and virtual machine monitor are the most common.
Hardware virtualization is an evolving technology that is gaining popularity in server platforms. The basic idea of the technology is to consolidate many small physical servers into one large physical server so that the processor can be used more effectively. The operating system running on a physical server gets converted into a distinct OS running inside the virtual machine.
The hypervisor controls the processor, memory and other components by allowing several different operating systems to run on the same machine without the need for a source code. The operating system running on the machine will appear to have its own processor, memory and other components.

It happened at the Gustin residence on Keaton Pond Road at about 4:30 Sunday afternoon.
Fire officials say homeowner Timothy Gustin was cooking in the kitchen, then went out to the woodshed. When he returned, the kitchen was on fire.
Gustin rushed upstairs and carried his 15-year-old daughter out of the home.
She was taken to Mayo Regional Hospital and treated for smoke inhalation.
By the time firefighters arrived, the 2-story home was engulfed in flames.
Firefighters had the fire out in less than an hour, but the house is a total loss.
A horse and several other animals in the barn were killed.
Dexter fire chief Jim Gudroe says there were several challenges in fighting this fire.
":There was some propane and oxygen tanks in the garage, and once they went off, that really put fuel to the fire.": Chief Gudroe Said on Sunday. ":Then being on a dead end road it was tough to get water in here. We didn't run out of water, but it was hard getting to it at first.":
Fire crews from Corinna and Garland were called in to help fight the fire.
Neighbors say the home was not insured.
The Red Cross has been called in to help the family find a place to stay.
Firefighters believe a grease fire on the stove sparked the flame that destroyed the home.

Lance: Don't get me wrong just plasma weapons
After I pulled out her ancient knife I whipped out my new modeled submachine plasma gun or XR34S .
" Just perfer my modern weapon." I said taking it the other section, blasting the target in three shots.
" Don't get me wrong your dagger is useful. Just doesn't give me the same satisfaction as my enemy blown to bits from a few shots." I said setting a new setting on the gun for less energy usage and more accuray with my teeth.
" You know I never though I would loose a robotic arm in battle. They seem so indestructible I've seen that arm take direct plasma fire and still function." I said trying to sound like i'm not complaining.
" Stop complaining already Lance."
I mumbled a few non existing words under my breath taking the best aim I could with the gun in my one hand. I aimed for the dummys head. The gun made a small electric like purr on there was a hole in the targets head.
" I have to say I would rather go into battle with a Light - Blade above all weapons they don't run out of energy. They can't be lost , they only thing that can happen to them is break." I said
" Their unwieldly , and involve close combat. Making a greater chance of death." Hiedi replied coldly.
" True. Just such an honorable weapon in my opinion." I said. taking another shot at the new target.

The sources say that more Navy officers in the Western Command are likely to resign over the incident, the cause of which is not known.
The submarine docked at the Mumbai harbour early on Thursday. Three of its compartments were found locked from inside. Naval sources said the two missing personnel could be inside any of these. The search operations are likely to resume soon.
"I am very sad about the developments. After the Sindhuratna incident, the Navy chief came to me. He was very upset and asked me to accept his resignation immediately," Defence Minister AK Antony said. "I consulted the Prime Minister on his resignation. He (Admiral Joshi) is a fine admiral and a very fine human being," Antony added.
According to the Navy, its crew members on board the submarine Sindhuratna detected smoke coming out from a chamber during a routine exercise early on Wednesday. Seven crew members were airlifted to a naval hospital after they inhaled smoke. The Navy was able to bring the smoke under control in 24 hours.
INS Sindhuratna is a Kilo-class vessel and was 100 nautical miles off the Mumbai coast when the incident happened.
Two navy personnel are still recorded as "unaccounted for". The search for them continues.

Artists of the 20th century were much preoccupied by the idea of the found object. When Marcel Duchamp, that sublime prankster, placed a urinal on a museum wall, he was concerned, in part at least, to make a gesture expressive of his hatred of the idea of the museum itself, to spit on those soaringly forbidding cultural walls. When the Surrealists seized hold of found objects for the purpose of art-making, they sang of the marvels of the aleatory impulse, the desire that art should emerge out of some chance encounter, like an act of brilliant prestidigitation – as one would meet a lover or a murderer.
Found objects can be curious things though. The very fact that they have been chanced upon and not made means that you could argue that they are unauthored. That idea would have appealed to many of those Modernist successors of Victorian traditions of narrative painting who abhorred the idea of art having authorial designs upon us – pointing up some sentimental moral, for example.
Found objects with a life to come arrive on the doorsteps of artists who possess an appetite for such things, calling out to them subliminally. That is a part of their mysterious appeal. During the last 30 or so years of her life, the artist Margaret Mellis, Scots by birth, English by adoption, kept a very close eye on the beach at Southwold in Suffolk, looking out for promising bits of driftwood.
It is no longer possible to do such a thing now. The groynes now repel the stuff. Only the delights of plastic drift in these days. Mellis would comb the shoreline, gathering her bits and pieces of driftwood serendipitously, and then store them in her studio inside the house, or stack them beside her front door in untidy heaps in order to annoy her neighbours. Sometimes, as with the bits of detritus that hang around many sculptors' studios, these bits of driftwood waited years for attention. Exactly the same thing is to be observed in the studio of Anthony Caro in north London, things large and small – wood, steel, rope – hanging around, waiting for their moment in the sun.
The point about a found object is that it is more than likely to look unlovely and unpromising – that is the very nature of its appeal. It will probably not exist for the sake of itself alone. It lives to exist in conjunction with other pieces of a similar provenance.
Few individual pieces would have looked more unpromising to the incurious eye than the elements of wood that form the elements that finally merged into the Bog Man on this page. Mellis has created an assemblage here, screwing thin, individual bits together, all so long and attenuated and almost ravaged looking, like some parched, blistered, battered saint in his tatterdemalion robes of office.
The figure itself looks terribly weak, deprived, suffering, husk-like, far beyond the reach of any living impulse. It is a sacred relic. Such is its thinness that it seems to be rising up out of itself, heavenward, mouthing mute hosannas, as if its very spare, ravaged look has made it a privileged spiritual onlooker.
None of these individual pieces of wood have been newly painted by the artist. Such bits of paint as exists on this piece at all were there already. They are barely present at all in places, merely sad, discontinuous patches. What is more, we can, to an extent, see right through him. He is present, suspended here by his own somewhat skeletal armature. The wash of the tide, the relentless grittiness of the sand, have scoured him back to this almost touching degree of visual impoverishment. And yet this bog man is wonderful precisely because he has been scarified to this degree. If he were less imperfect, less pummelled by circumstance, he would be far less magnificent in his strange, ghostly decrepitude.
About the artist: Margaret Mellis (1914-2009)
Margaret Mellis was a painter, collagist and sculptor. Her later works divides between wooden constructions and paintings, which she often made on the backs of opened out envelopes. Though Scottish by birth, her work is strongly identified with the county of Suffolk, where she lived for much of her later life.Reuse content

Nicki Minaj has attacked Kanye West for having racial double standards and rapping about successful black men dating white women.
Speaking in the November issue of Marie Claire magazine, the Anaconda rapper spoke in defence of black women and feelings of inadequacy.
The 33-year-old rapper specifically called out Kanye West's hypocrisy in the song Gold Digger where he joked about leaving a black partner for a white one but then actually doing it with Kim Kardashian West, The Mirror reports.
Minaj wrote:
I'm so tired of black women feeling that when our men get rich, they're going to leave them for a woman of a different race.
It wasn't funny when Kanye said [in Gold Digger], 'When he get on, he'll leave your ass for a white girl', and Kanye happens to be with a white girl now. It wasn't funny when he said it; it was the fucking truth.
Kim Kardashian wasn't the only one in the firing line though and Minaj attacked X-Factor judge Sharon Osbourne for praising the Kim's naked selfie despite condemning Minaj for appearing scantily clad.
Osbourne had described Minaj's outfit in the Anaconda promo cover as a 'cheap porno cover of a DVD' but called Kim's famous nude selfie 'inspiring'.
Nicki noted the hypocrisy saying:
So it wasn't trashy and raunchy when a white woman did it but it was when a black woman did it?
When Kim Kardashian's naked picture came out (Sharon) praised it and my fans attacked her for being such a hypocrite.
It's quite pathetic and sad but that is my reality and I've gotten accustomed to just shutting it down.
Minaj finished her piece by saying that she worries young girls are marrying for money and that they should aim to be successful without the help of a man.

Now, as a police constable, she goes into schools to advise youngsters on their own personal safety.
As the Metropolitan Police's Schools Involvement Officer for the Wandsworth division she also advises black and Asian youngsters on how they should respond when being stopped and searched by her colleagues.
In a city where blacks and Asians are four times more likely to be stopped than whites, it is a thorny issue. Constable Hanif accepts that there will be times when the searching is unwarranted.
She said: "I tell them to stay calm - to take in all the information with their eyes and ears and not to become aggressive. If they have a complaint, they should take it to the station."
Constable Hanif, who is half Spanish and half Pakistani, is convinced that her own experiences of racism have helped her to have a better understanding of similar problems faced by today's youngsters.
After 11 years in the Metropolitan Police, she has learnt to take in her stride the "everyday" incidents of racism that she still experiences.
When she was transferred from a position on the Vice Squad to her current division, she was informed that colleagues had been wary of working with her because she was both female and Asian. They had been pleasantly surprised, she was told, by the professionalism she had shown.
Her conclusion is that she has to work harder than white officers to reach the same level of acceptance. "Because you are a high-profile Asian officer, if you make a mistake everybody talks about it" she said.
Reaction to her by the public has been mostly positive, although one Asian group complained that her father had failed in his duty by allowing her to become a police officer. But Constable Hanif, 35, pointed out: "The positive side of being a visible minority is that the public think you are going to play fair."
Since the Stephen Lawrence inquiry, she has noticed the change in atmosphere within police ranks with some white officers going out of their way to express solidarity with her.
Although racism has not gone away, she said: "I still feel safer raising these issues in the police canteen than in many of the other places I have worked."

Ratings for Dr. Thomas Reavell
Dr. Reavell has been my dentist for many, many years and I would never think of going anywhere else. I do not get freezing and he always takes his time when fixing my teeth. His staff is wonderful!!! He also always asks about my family.
Please get rid of your wife at front desk. She is ruining your office and is rude to your patients. I heard her call a patient an a**hole while I was sitting in the dental chair. I'm leaving Dr. Reavells for the sole purpose that she is there.
Dr. Reavell and his staff are absolutely wonderful minus the HORRIBLE wife Deidra. I have a pleasant experience with everyone except her. I have heard her complain about patients, huff and puff under her breath and talk down to her staff on numerous occasions. Avoid her AT ALL COST.
Just recently switched to Dr. Reavells office and I love it! Dr. Reavell and his staff are wonderful, very professional and friendly.
Dr. Reavell is a wonderful dentist, however, I echo the previous comments that dealing with the office has been an unpleasant event since his new wife came on board. We are finding a new dentist
Love this dentist. .all the staff are fantastic. Never had a problem with any of them. Love the atmosphere of the office
dr. reavell is an EXCELLENT dentist. he only does necessary work and does not over bill and even does some work free of charge. he is very competent and all work done stands the test of time. i have to agree with the comments about deirdre. she does not belong there. i'm sick of her arguing with the dr. over me while i'm in the chair - he is the trained professional, she is not. i'm also tired of her complaining about how many crowns she needs and how much it's going to cost her, you're a dentist's wife - it will cost you little to nothing while it's costing me 2 months worth of groceries so i have no sympathy for your whining. it would be nice to speak with an actual live person when i call in instead an outgoing message that very unprofessionally does not provide hours of operation so i know whether i'm wasting my time calling and repeatedly getting a machine. the rest of the staff are outstanding. maybe he needs to have jess on the phones more often.
get rid of your wife! Rude lady, can't stand her... Chris on the other hand is the best, love her!
Please let go of your wife and bring back a nice receptionist. I'm tired of always talking to the machine and never getting a live response.
I went to Dr reavell for over 25 years. On average I waited an hour to get in after arriving on time for my scheduled appt. From my experience he would rather pull a tooth than fix it. After his suspension- he hired the new wife as the receptionist. I had 2 insurance claims declined because she submitted the wrong information. She is extremely rude and disrespectful. Avoid this dental office at all cost please.

A bud of mine has a '99 T/A that has a best ET to date of 12.99 - my svo can't beat that yet.
I would always get just the "well he has a 4 banger, no need to race him" talk, then on the way to the strip with my local club I ran my buddies 95 GT with exhaust and what not from about 50-80mph, and stayed pretty close with him, the next thing he said to me when he and i got out was that he needed to have a ride in the svo.

IDK if I believe you stomped a Viper ... but I hate 'Vette drivers. They think they're such hot s h i t!
Most Viper and Vette owners are ass's...but the Vette guys tend to be more human and know when they get beat..i actualy compare the Viper guys to the Local GTstang owners..lol...full of all sorts of excuses..the viper isnt much faster than the vette and the vett will normaly get them good off the line thanks to Trac control and such....................Hal

Hounds: The Crossroads of Pentag Path
Octobre 27th, 2009
"Did you hear that?" Vermil said, quickly rejoining the others.
"Hear what?" Max bluntly retorted as the giggle sounded again.
"That. DAEBI!" Roy shouted loudly as the trickster appeared again, looking more than pleased with herself. "If you're go to leave, then just GO!"
"Oh you boys and your anger issues. You'd think you didn't like me..." She looked sad, before quickly moving over to Roy's side. "You like me, don't you?" She teleported again, this time to Wehc. "I'm sure you do." Once more, she teleported over to Vermil. "And you... I'm not sure what you like. Still, that's irrelevant."
"Why?" Vermil said, whipping around to face her. She was gone. Her voice rang out over the path they were walking.
"Because you've wandered onto the Pentag Path. It's a crossroads. It's where you choose."
"Choose what?" Sepia called out, cupping his hands around his mouth as if it would make a difference.
"Your future..."
The world around Team Temporal began to swirl and blur as they felt themselves being ripped apart.
"She's moving us throught time!" Hari shouted. His experience with Daebi's time travel was clearly paying off.
"Where?!" Fuschia yelled, but before long they were standing on the shore, by a lake. It was clear and crystal blue, but no one took notice.
"WHERE ARE WE?!" Sepia shouted, still cupping his hands.
"You don't know? You should..." Came a sluggish voice. It was slow, and pained, but more as if it had been disturbed than physically injured.
"What?" Vermil spun on one foot to see the source of the voice. It was a large, rocky pokemon, on four legs. Like a molten dog, Vermil found it's lakeside home unusual.
"Ah. A Heatran." Sepia smiled and began to stroke his chin. "But I thought they only lived in harsh, near-boiling conditions..."
"Hahaha... I'm on vacation... I'm allowed to leave my Volcano every so often." The Heatran slowly began meandering towards the group. Hari flinched, causing the Heatran to laugh again. "Why so scared, boy? I won't bite. To be honest, I'm surprised to find a group of humans here. I thought you were native to Kanto... Mind you, I'm from far away aswell, so fair enough."
"I'm sorry... Native?" Vermil spluttered out his words a bit, before realising there was something more unusual occuring. "Wait! You can talk!"
"What? Of course I can! Why wouldn't I be able to?"
"Well..." Vermil looked sheepish.
"Mr. Heatran, we're a bit lost. We're not quite sure why we're here. Do you know of anything unusual that might be occuring?" Wehc was clearly unphased by the whole situation, and Max couldn't help but shoot him a suspicious glare as a result.
"Well... I'm not sure. Personally, I'm leaving because of the God, but it's up to you what you do."
"I'm sorry... did you just say God's here?" Vermil was stunned - both at the statement, and at the fact he had just said what he'd said.
"The God, not God. Don't you know anything about this world?"
"Not really, no." Wehc pulled out his pad, ready to take notes.
"Wow... Well, Let me make it simple. We Pokemon live quite happily under the leadership of our various 'heads'. Each Pokemon is divided into their own category - although some span two or more - and they take orders as dictated by their head. They're nothing major - Don't go south, there's a plague and so on. Helpful things. Although, to be honest, the head of the Gods is a little unsettling if you ask me. That's why I'm leaving."
"Who is the head of the Gods?"
"Oh... Right. It's..." Heatran's eyes suddenly widened, in surprise. "It's him."
The group spun around to face a strange, Orange and Green creature. It had one arm like a Tendril, the other more standard. It's legs were pointed, as was it's head. Vermil was taken aback by the creature.
"You there. Humans. You do not belong in these parts. Your head surely must have commanded you away from here."
"What? Why?" Sepia stood forward, proudly. "We're humans! We can go where we wish!"
"No, I made it quite clear to Origin that humans were not allowed around here."
"Origin... You mean, it's a Pokemon?" Vermil suddenly clicked a lightbulb on in his head. "So that means... Saffy might be being controlled!"
"What? Anyway, I suggest you leave. I have given fair warning, and will remove you by force if necessary."
"Deoxys!" Heatran bellowed, "Leave them be!"
"Hmph. Do not presume to know me, Hound. Your Arceus is a sham of a creature, and I do not respect you anymore than I do him."
"Well, fine! I didn't like your lake anyway!" Heatran began to lumber away, as Vermil looked surprised.
"I'm sorry, but we can't leave. We're here for a purpose." Wehc took the opportunity to butt in. "I just don't know what it is yet."
"Well, then you were all warned. It is on your heads." Deoxys spoke ominously, and all of a sudden his eyes began to glow. The group were raised slowly into the air, causing Hari to scream loudly.
"What are you... augh!" Sepia said, suddenly being wracked with pain.
"I warned you, you were insolent. This is your re-"
"Enough." Came a voice, suddenly, as the group found themselves back at the Pentag Path. Mt Ausk stood proudly in the distance, as if nothing had happened. Unchanged.
"Daebi... What was the point of that?" Roy panted loudly, recovering from the sudden painful shock.
"Oh, just an excuse to bring you here." She laughed.
"Here?" Vermil said, surprised.
"It's no fun to just skip you ahead in time. It's irregular."
"And that was regular?" Said Roy, almost sounding disappointed.
"Oh hush now, there's another surprise for you. To reach your destination - The 'Black Hole' - You need to head to Rabata Field, where it... well, is. If you head off now, you'll get there in time to meet something special. But, if you go to Getan City, you'll meet someone else special. Two special people, in fact. All because I skipped you ahead in time a day."
"A whole d-d-d-day?!" Roy said, stuttering.
"Fair enough." Sepia said, seeming to know the game. "I will go to Getan City with Roy, Fujitsu and Vermil. Wehc, Max, Hari and Polaris, you should all go to Richtog Vale. It's on the way to Rabata Field. Hari's history there will serve you better than us, and I know you all get on well."
"Excellent. Sounds like a plan." Max was almost snide in his speech.
"Good." Vermil said, finally recovered. "We'll split up then. There's a gym in each city, so if you were looking to beat the Pokemon League, you're out of luck. Although, to be fair, we could just pool our badges if we get them all between us."
"Sounds like a plan." Polaris said, copying Max. "Well then... Wagons roll.
It was not long before both groups reached their destinations. Roy suggested they find a room for the night, whereas Hari took the opportunity to call in at the Yurgelln Academy. Their extra beds were freely offered to him. Both groups went to sleep with the intention of a busy day - just how busy was yet to be decided.

The Taiwanese Mobile Phone Industry, 1Q 2014: Branded Vendors
This research report presents mobile phone shipment volume forecast and recent quarter review of major Taiwanese branded vendors. The report includes shipment volume and value, ASP, vendor volume ranking, shipment by brands, and price trend. Also provided are shipment breakdowns by system technology, operating system, display technology, panel size, shipment destination, and production location. The content of this report is based on primary data obtained through interviews with Taiwanese mobile phone branded vendors. The report finds that Taiwanese branded mobile phone shipmen volume declined slightly in the fourth quarter of 2013, mainly due to HTC's lack of new follow-ups to compete vis-à-vis with rivals like Apple and Samsung. While competition in China becomes fiercer, developing other emerging markets in an effort to satisfy local market demand for mobile phones may be the key to gain traction in those markets. Looking ahead to the 2014, helped by the launch of HTC's M8 and subsequent offerings as well as broad product portfolios of ASUS and Acer particularly in mid-to-low-ends, it is forecast that shipment volume of Taiwanese branded mobile phones will top around 20.8 million units, slipping merely 1% year-on-year.
The Taiwanese Mobile Phone Industry, 1Q 2014: Contract Manufacturers
This research report presents mobile phone shipment volume forecast and recent quarter review of major Taiwanese contract manufacturers. The report includes major contract manufacturers' shipment volume and value, ASP, manufacturer volume ranking, customer ranking, shipment by maker, and price trend. Also provided are shipment breakdowns by system technology, operating system, display, panel size, and production location. The content of this report is based on primary data obtained through interviews with Taiwanese mobile phone contract manufacturers. The report finds that the shipment volume of Taiwanese contract manufacturers soared in the fourth quarter of 2013, driven mainly by the increased market demand for iPhones toward year-end. Apple's iPhones continues to take the lion's share in Taiwanese makers' shipment, followed by Xiaomi and Sony in the fourth quarter of 2013. It should be noted that LTE models constituted over 70% of total contract manufactured mobile phone shipments in the fourth quarter of 2014, up from around 52.6% in the third quarter. The Taiwanese contract manufacturers' mobile phone shipment volume, though peaked in the fourth quarter, is forecast to have subdued in the first quarter of 2014 and will not see appreciable growth until iPhone 6 launch in the second half of 2014.

Dear Colleagues and Friends of Commons Lab,
As many of you know, Lea Shanley has left the Wilson Center to begin a new position. She helped build Commons Lab to where it is today and we want to ensure the continued success of this work, which is supported by the Alfred P. Sloan foundation.
Commons Lab is an important part of the portfolio of the Wilson Center's Science and Technology Innovation Program, so I will be taking over as interim director for the next 4-6 months as we work through existing projects and explore new directions.
Elizabeth Tyson, whom many of you know, will remain and take on a role as New Projects/Technology Scout. At the beginning of November, Anne Bowser will return from her stay at Microsoft Research and assume a part-time position as Researcher, Data Science and Visualization.
Stay tuned and stay engaged with us. We want to hear from you regarding what we are doing, how we are doing, and where we need to go. Please feel free to contact me directly with ideas.

BeschreibungThe main focus of this study was to investigate how students and parents appreciate Learning Management System. ÖBS which can be called a simple LMS application was selected for this study. One of the important findings is that parents do not want to use ÖBS as a communication device, especially as an informing agent. This perspective of parents, which does not regard ÖBS as an informing system, reveals that they are aware of the possible drawbacks of ÖBS while using it. So,from student`s perspective there is no situation like "Big brother is watching you" (Orwell, 1949) .

Friends on EarthMature
They walked together down the icy street, Gabriel gripped tightly onto Dawn's arm as he slid a little.
"So do all humans celebrate this?" Gabriel asked once he was upright again, Dawn smiled at him.
"Most do yes." Dawn said as they looked in shop windows at the decorations, Dawn slipped and someone grabbed his arm. "Thanks."
"You're welcome." A familiar voice said happily. They turned to see Lou stood behind them Dawn grinned hugging his Father tightly Lou laughed. "It's good to see you too."
"Do I get a hug too?" a voice drawled Rossier grinned at Gabriel.
"You wish." Gabriel snarled.
"I wish for more than that." Rossier laughed Gabriel's rising fist was caught by Berith.
"So, how are you two?" she asked as Gabriel glared at Rossier.
"fine." Dawn nodded. Gabriel looked down the long street his annoyance at Rossier vanishing as he smiled at the lights.
"Gabriel?" Berith said gently.
"I'm fine." He replied.
"Shall we head back?" Lou asked.
"sure." Berith nodded Lou rested a hand on the vampyres shoulder.
"Did you need to feed first?"
"No" Gabriel said the large daemons gentle hand breaking his distracted stare he looked up at Lou. "Come on then." He nodded.
"Hang on." Dawn said smiling "I'll be back in a minute."
"What's he up too?" Rossier frowned as Dawn hurried away.
"No idea." Lou shrugged moving a little way down the street sitting down on a wooden bench. The others quickly followed. Rossier grinned up at Van Hay as he took the last space. Van Hays light eyes just looked calmly at him then quick as a flash his dark skinned fingers gripped the top of Rossier's ear. The daemon squeaked as Van Hay pulled him up and switched places sitting down.
"That wasn't fair." Rossier grumbled rubbing his now very pink ear.
"Seems fair to me." Lou laughed "so Gabriel," he said turning to the vampyre "what have you got Dawn for Christmas?"
"Huh?" Gabriel frowned.
"I thought so" Lou smiled "he hasn't explained this very well has he?"

The Bloat-Bag All-You-Can-
Eat Buffet Restaurant
"Hey there, people, Skip Over here to ask you the $3.99 question: are you looking for a restaurant where you can snarf enough chow to feed a small third-world nation? Well, your search is over! When you come into The Bloat-Bag All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Restaurant, strap on you feed bag, because you'll be wobbling unsteadily away so gorged with food, you'll need a bridge just to span your swollen stomach! Ham, roast beef, turkey, fried everything, mashed potatoes slathered in so much real butter and sour cream, you'll keel over from just looking at it! If you're watching your cholesterol, watch it somewhere else, cause we don't really give a s**t, and we're betting that you don't either! The Bloat-Bag All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Restaurant; it's an institution! As in it's just like institution food; sure it's not the best, but, hey, what else to you expect for only $3.99? That's right, for only $3.99, you'll get to load up, and I do mean 'load'! Bring a jacket with many pockets; that way you can probably steal enough food to make dinner free for a week! Now, that's not the way it's supposed to work, but let's face it, everyone knows and expects you'll be doing that. We'll pretend not to notice when Uncle Frank walks away with enough bread crumbs falling out the bottom of his pants, people will confuse him with the Pied Piper! Add cheese and meat, slather his legs in butter, and his lower half would be a walking ham sandwich! So, your family will be walking in to eat at The Bloat-Bag All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Restaurant; but you should bring some sort of cart, cause you'll be wheeling them home!"

Add Your Comments:
So is this how you intend to extract your laughter money! You sold it to me, where do I queue up?
As usually, most entertaining. I could do with an ad man. How are your rates?
How about $500 dollars, and let's see, something like this: "Dibs, he can write like crazy!". Well, I can probably come up with something better, but now you get an idea of the formidable talent I can bring to bear on whatever project I work on!
I have no hope of creating a comment that is on par with this masterpiece. Unfair, you must be channeling Billy again! The ethereal pitchman in action!
Can you hear me Billy? Come in Billy!"
"Hi, Billy Mays here, here to tell you about..."
"Billy, I just wondered if you were there, not to yell and scream about some useless product that doesn't mean jack! You were an obnoxious dude while you were living, but dead?"
"Fine! This is Billy Mays, and I guess I won't be telling you about 'The Crapper', the revolutionary new product where every time you go to the bathroom, the garage door opens..."
"Shut it, Billy! Well, it looks like channeling Billy Mays was a bad idea; go back in the ground, Billy!"
So reasonable, is that per word? See I have difficulty string sentences together so a sharp satirist like you is invaluable.
I feel so luck now.
A very funny poem. Period. Haha
You crack me up!
Snarf..I love that word, makes me giggle. I only allow myself one of these a day because they crack me up. Savoring them so to speak. This is great. You have such a talent. :) Sherry

Good product and good price. I would recommend taking 2 bottles because the 60 gels take only 1/3 of the bottle, the rest is empty; this way I put the pour the second bottle in the first. I think this product together with fresh carrot juice is the key to my healthy eyes and excellent vision.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott has promised to bring forward a financial assistance package for drought-stricken farmers in response to demands from Nationals MPs, led by Agriculture Minister Senator Barnaby Joyce, for urgent drought assistance.
The Farm Household Allowance, which hands farmers up to three years of fortnightly income assistance at the same level as the Newstart Allowance during droughts, was due to begin on July 1. But Mr Abbott moved to head off Nationals? concerns amid a worsening drought in parts of NSW and Queensland.
??This is a very serious issue and Barnaby is right to be very concerned,?? Mr Abbott said on Thursday.
??Yes, there is a new package of drought assistance coming and what we?re looking at is bringing that forward. The problem is now and it does need to be dealt with now.??
Mr Abbott said the government would not sit on its hands but wanted to dispense the money ??as soon as possible??.
Farmers in parts of Queensland have not had decent rain for two years and Senator Joyce, who last week travelled through drought-affected regions, has spoken passionately in recent weeks of the devastation visited upon ??mum and dad?? farmers, in some cases leading to suicides.
The decision came as Nationals MPs came together for their first party room meeting of the year in Bundaberg, Queensland, to discuss further assistance measures they will seek from the government for drought-hit farmers.
The National Farmers Federation has also backed calls for a bigger rescue package for farmers, which comes as Treasurer Joe Hockey declared an end to the ??age of entitlement??.
Earlier this week Nationals MPs Darren Chester, John ??Wacka?? Williams and George Christensen publicly threw their support behind Senator Joyce.
Mr Christensen suggested the time was ripe to consider a government-backed rural development bank.
Labor agriculture spokesman Joel Fitzgibbon said Mr Joyce should restore the $40 million he had withheld from the Farm Finance low interest loans scheme to assist farmers hit by drought.

Who should consider a PhD? • The fundamental qualities any prospective PhD student needs to have is – intellectual curiosity, – a drive for doing original research and a – deep interest in (certain aspects of) Computer Science. • Some talent is required too! • At times it requires a strong sense of perseverance. • If you don't have these qualities then perhaps a PhD may not be right for you. What sort of topics can you study? • The Department of Computer Science has undergone a dramatic transformation in terms of personnel and its research portfolio. • Over the past couple of years, 13 new staff have arrived at Durham, all of whom have exceptional research records. • There are four research groups that can be found on our web pages: – – – – Algorithms and Complexity Group Interactive Media Technology Group Software Engineering Group Technology-Enhanced Learning Group • To find out more, have a look at the web pages and go and have a chat with appropriate members of staff after this presentation. Funding • There are various sources of funding available: – the Department's doctoral training account (DTA) arising through successful EPSRC research grant applications – Durham University's postgraduate fellowship scheme – research grant proposals – other sources. • Most sources are competitive. • It is important that the Department knows of your interest in a PhD as soon as possible so as to maximise the likelihood of securing funding. • So start to talk to staff members as soon as possible or follow the official route of applying through the Graduate School. • The necessary information and links can be found on our research web pages.
