7 Resorts that give you a star-studded experience for an affordable price
Loving that overwater bungalow in Bora Bora but aren't loving the price tag? We get it! That's why we've sourced out seven resorts that afford you a luxury experience, without the accompanying price tag. Whether you're in the mood for Ibiza, Malibu or the Bahamas, we've got you covered!
You want: Ibiza
You should try: Breathless Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa (Riviera Maya, Mexico)
If you're looking for around the clock entertainment and a spot to dance the night away, Breathless Riviera Cancun is THE resort. This lively adults-only location is perfect for those wanting a Spanish getaway without the price tag. Aside from experiencing a luxury, all-inclusive stay with unlimited gourmet meals and beverages, this property offers a unique party calendar. Bonus: Flights to Mexico are a fraction of the cost.
You want: St Barths
You should try: Riu Palace St Martin (St Martin)
Just a stone's throw away from St Barths, St Martin is a fraction of the cost and has the benefit of two countries in one. This vibrant destination also offers an array of exciting opportunities. Plus, the Riu Palace St Martin is truly one of the jewels of Riu Palace resorts. Check out our full review of it here.
You want: Bahamas
You should try: Melia Buenavista (Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba)
Although culturally unique, both countries are known for their stunning white sand beaches and blue water. Cuba, however has the benefit of being a destination that is affordable and depending on your departure city, sometimes more accessible. Investing in luxury resorts will ensure your experience is top-notch, which is why we recommend the Melia Buenavista. This 5-star resort offers amazing snorkeling, professional staff and spacious suites.
You want: Bora Bora
You should try: El Dorado Maroma (Riviera Maya, Mexico)
You dream of overwater bungalows set on crystal clear water but can't stomach the hefty price tag. Well, you're in luck! Mexico's first overwater bungalows have just opened up at El Dorado Maroma. Cancun has the same beautiful turquoise waters and white sand beaches as Bora Bora but at a more affordable price point. Plus, Maroma beach was voted as one of the best beaches in the world by the Travel Channel.
You want: St Lucia
You should try: Dreams Punta Cana (Punta Cana, Dominican Republic)
The Dominican Republic provides the same tropical landscape as St. Lucia and is a perfect destination for all budgets. With the benefit of white sand beaches (St. Lucia's are dark sand), a stay at a luxury resort such as the Dreams Punta Cana is sure to please. An added perk: This luxury resort is Rainforest Alliance Certified.
You want: Maui
You should try: Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall (Montego Bay, Jamaica)
We don't deny the appeal of Maui. Lush hills and sandy beaches paint this destination a pretty picture. For a similar island feel at a fraction of the cost, you can book a luxury all-inclusive resort in Montego Bay. This top-rated resort is located on 5,000 picture-perfect acres on Jamaica's coast.
You want: Malibu
You should try: Breathless Cabo San Lucas (Cabo San Lucas, Mexico)
Located just down the coast from Malibu, Cabo San Lucas is geographically very similar. Paired with affordable prices, this is a hot destination. Our resort of choice here is the Breathless Cabo San Lucas. Upscale and adults-only, this lively resort rivals the hotspots of Malibu. We recently sent our travel ambassadors Vacation Couple here, giving you an insider's look at this resort on our Facebook page.

Melbourne, May 31 (ANI): World No.1 Rafael Nadal launched a broadside at world sport's new doping rules, claiming players were being harassed by testers.
The world No1 and four-time Roland Garros champion cruised through his third-round clash with Hewitt, advancing 6-1 6-3 6-1 in 111 minutes.
But Nadal's biggest issue seemed to be the World Anti-Doping Agency regulations, which demand players let drug testers know their whereabouts for a period of one hour every day.
Nadal revealed that testers paid their latest visit when he was at home in Madrid last week.
"I was with my friends. Then I had a bath and my mother called me. She told me the guys were in my house in Madrid,"' Nadal said.
"It was my only free evening. I have to take this anti-doping control. It was the same several days ago. (David) Ferrer and Fernando (Verdasco) were tested as well, at 6am.
"It's crazy. I don't know if, from a legal point of view, this is correct. That is, to know where you are every single moment of your life, and to account for this. This is what I think," The Daily Telegraph quoted Nadal, as saying.
"I don't think this is a right thing to do. It's wrong. It's a high price to pay to practice your sport, to play tennis. I want tennis to be as clean as possible, of course. This is crystal clear. But there's room for manoeuvring. You see, there's a certain type of leeway," he said.
Nadal added that he was convinced French player Richard Gasquet was innocent of doping despite the Frenchman testing positive for cocaine in Miami this year. (ANI)

My Daily Breakfast: Motivation!
Today for breakfast, I had a taste of motivation, mixed with inspiration and hope. I did not get a chance to eat a solid breakfast yet because I was concentrating on the family starting with self. I woke up on my favorite day thinking positive thoughts and then started my to do list. Next I started making beds and preparing for my family in case they needed my help—well I know the baby needs her milk. I warmed it up, in case she woke up, and woke up my 8-year old while the males got themselves ready. Did some cleaning and now I am ready for my mixed day of domestics and writing. I hope to make some chicken, rice, salad and dessert if I get time. Once everyone is sleeping, I will be finally onto my dreams. Really Big ones!

Crooked Politics: Vote Markets and Redistribution in New Democracies
Valg i udviklingslande er ofte præget af stemmekøb – en form for valgkorruption, hvor politiske partier køber vælgeres stemmer før valget. Formålet med dette projekt er at forklare, hvorfor nogle vælgere bliver tilbudt penge for deres stemmer og deltager i handel med stemmer, samt hvilke fordelingsmæssige konsekvenser forekomsten af stemmemarkeder har. Disse spørgsmål besvares i to integrerede delprojekter. Det første delprojekt undersøger årsagerne til stemmehandel og fokuserer på hvilken rolle fattigdom samt vælgeres viden og information spiller i denne forbindelse. Dette undersøges ved en valgundersøgelse i Sydafrika, samt ved en analyse af surveydata fra flere lande. Det andet delprojekt undersøger de fordelingsmæssige konsekvenser af stemmehandel. Her fokuseres dels på sammenligninger af nye demokratier, samt på sammenligninger af kommuner i Sydafrika. Projektet er internationalt, og består af forskere fra Danmark, Norge, og Sydafrika. Disse vil i fællesskab bidrage til at kaste lyst over en væsentlig – men overset – del af valg og valgkampe i nye demokratier.
Projektet er finansieret af Det Frie Forskningsråd.

A widespread consensus exists internationally and in Denmark about the relevance of pursuing goals for sustainable transport development but only limited research about how national transportation planning can become a pillar in this process. The goal of SUSTAIN is to expand this research and consolidate a framework on three core domains for a National Sustainable Transport Planning (NSTP): 1) sustainability, 2) institutions and 3) tools.
Research within these three domains will address the following questions: How can the concept of sustainability be operationalised and transformed into strategic performance measures for national transport planning? How can these types of knowledge about organisational forms and planning processes contribute to the achievement of such sustainability measures? And how can these new types of knowledge be built into new model-based planning tools that can help advance the strategic planning in the desired sustainable direction? An important feature of SUSTAIN is that it will seek to combine the results of social and technical sciences in planning research with extensive policy relevant knowledge in dialogue with practitioners and international experts.
Furthermore, the SUSTAIN research will be underpinned by multi-faceted case research based on both Danish and international cases. Close connection with ongoing Danish planning practice will serve to demonstrate the potential of the formulated NSTP framework, which is expected to have a broad strategic and policy-oriented appeal and impact on promoting future sustainable transport.

Rewards on the top
1,8 millioner kroner i eftervederlag efter at have været forsvarsminister i 93 dage. Det er i den grad noget, der trækker medieoverskrifter og vækker offentlig forargelse. Samtidigt tjener en minister mindre end en departementschef, og en borgmester betydeligt mindre end en kommunaldirektør. Med medieopmærksomheden på politikernes lønforhold og Vederlagskommissionen arbejde er den samfundsmæssige aktualitet af at se på politikernes løn og arbejdsforhold åbenlys. Forskningsmæssigt rammer spørgsmålet ned i kernen af politologien, fordi det vedrører samfundskontrakten mellem de folkevalgte og politikerne. Hvor meget og hvordan er befolkningen villig til at honorere politikerne, og hvordan forvalter politikerne det forhold, at de sidder på begge sider af bordet, når der forhandles løn? Har de præferencer for store skjulte løntillæg, der ikke tåler mediernes bevågenhed, eller er den løn deres arbejde bærer, når alt tages i betragtning, på et niveau, hvor politik er i fare for at blive et jobområde, som det vil blive vanskeligt at rekruttere til? Det er temaerne i dette forskningsprojekt. I projektet gennemføres dels en analyse af befolkningen og politikernes præferencer for forskellige typer af belønning, og dels en analyse af hvilke synlige og mindre synlige belønninger, der knytter sig til arbejdet som politiker under og efter ansættelsen som folkevalgt.

AlterEcos: Alternativer til aktuelt dominerende former for økonomisk organisering
Den globale finanskrise medførte ikke blot højlydte folkelige protester, men også mere afdæmpede opfordringer til forandring internt i den finansielle sektor og fra politisk hold. Nu synes kritikken af aktørerne bag krisen imidlertid at være stilnet af, ligesom forslagene til finansiel reform ikke længere er øverst på den offentlige dagsorden. Ser man nærmere efter, findes der dog fortsat konkrete tiltag, som måske ikke bryder radikalt med den gældende økonomiske orden, men dog rummer potentiale til at forandre den. Sådanne tiltag, hvad enten de udspringer fra sektoren selv, fra politikere og embedsmænd eller fra protestbevægelserne, udgør dette projekts fokusområde. Projektet undersøger nutidens alternativer i forsøget på at afdække og forklare mulige fremtider – ikke som noget radikalt 'andet', men som forandring indefra, som AlterEcos. Projektet spørger simpelthen: Hvordan muliggøres alternativer til den i øjeblikket dominerende form for økonomisk organisering?
Projektet har et budget på 5.888 mill. Kr. der ledes af lektor Sine Nørholm Just har en løbetid på 3 års (2016- 2019).

Global Re-ordering: Evolution through European Networks (GR:EEN) - FP7
GR:EEN will study the current and future role of the EU in an emerging multi-polar world through a programme of stock-taking, multi-disciplinary research and complementary activities.
It aims at a better understanding of the prospective directions of the emerging global governance structures and Europe's place in them.
Analysis will focus on the extant actors from the 20th century, the 21st century rising powers, the increasingly influential non-state actors (from both civil and non-civil society) and the new transnational regulatory networks of public and private policy makers and regional agencies.
While multi-polarity, with Europe as a pole, is a possibility alternative scenarios are also plausible. A shift from a trans-Atlantic to trans-Pacific locus of power, or the ―depolarization‖ and fragmentation of authority are such alternatives; both could marginalize Europe's influence.
But they are questions to be researched; not assertions to be made. Professor Leonard Seabrooke (CBS/Warwick) will lead the theoretical 'engine' of the GR:EEN through Work Package 1, 'European Actor-Networks in a Multi-Polar World: Stocktaking and Theory'.
Work Package 1 will begin in March 2011 and continue to develop throughout the life of GR:EEN. The work package is generally divided among interest in 'European Union networks', 'Europe and transnational business', and 'Europe and international relations'.
The scholars in the work package specialise in various aspects related to these three themes and coordination among them has already begun.
Scholars involved in the work package include: Peer Hull Kristensen (CBS); Maja Lotz (CBS/Stanford); Charles Sabel (CBS/Columbia); Leonard Seabrooke (CBS/Warwick); Ole Jacob Sending (NUPI); Eleni Tsingou (CBS/Warwick); and Jonathan Zeitlin (Amsterdam). To read more about GR:EEN visit the homepage

The Research Council of Norway's NORGLOBAL programme has awarded 5 million Norwegian kroner to the Systems of Tax Evasion and Laundering (STEAL) project led by Professor Leonard Seabrooke. Based at the Norwegian Institute for International Affairs, where Seabrooke is Research Professor II, STEAL brings together a team with a proven track record in the study of tax havens from the field of International Political Economy.
Research Objectives
The rectification of these 2 interrelated deficits is approached on the basis of 3 research objectives:
• To demonstrate that the 3 forms of CORGOV fulfil identical societal functions under altered structural
conditions insofar as they are simultaneously oriented towards the internal stabilisation of economic
processes and the establishment of compatibility with non-economic segments of society.
• To explain how evolutionary transitions from corporatism through neo-corporatism to governance unfolded
through an illumination of the relationship between the emergence and successive transformation of
CORGOV institutions and general structural transformations of societal structures.
• To describe and analyse the organisational composition of the 3 forms of CORGOV and the function of
legal instruments within these compositions; through a reconstruction of the type of organisations, networks,
social roles and their concordant legal forms on which the 3 forms of CORGOV rely.
The realisation of the research objectives are unfolded through detailed case studies respectively concerned
with the historical evolution of CORGOV within the European steel and pharmaceutical sectors.

This aim will be achieved through 10 objectives organised around 12 research, dissemination and management packages (Figure 1).
STYLE is led by Jacqueline O'Reilly, University of Brighton and DBP at CBS is one of 25 research partners. There are also an international advisory network and local advisory boards of employers, trade unions, policy makers and NGOs. Janine Leschke, associate professor at DBP, is involved in WP6 Mismatch: Migration & Mobility and WP10 Flexicurity and she is co-leader of WP11 International Handbook. Martin Bæk Carstensen, assistant professor at DBP, and Christian Lyhne Ibsen, assistant professor at the Employment Relations Research Centre (FAOS) at the Department of Sociology at Copenhagen University are involved in WP 4 Policy Transfer.

The ITSSOIN Project
CBC Center for Civil Society Studies at the Department of Business and Politics have become partner in the EU 7th Framework project ITSSOIN (Impact of the Third Sector as SOcial INnovation). The research is taking place over a three year period 2014-17.
Based on an empirical mapping of the Third Sector in nine European countries, the project will explore the influence of structural characteristics of non-profit organizations and civic engagement on social innovations. Thereby ITSSOIN will focus on organizations (properties and practices) and context conditions (discourses and policy frameworks).
Social innovation fields to be investigated will include: culture & arts; social services; health care; environmental sustainability; consumer protection; work integration; and community development.

ENLIGHTEN: European Legitimacy in Governing through Hard Times: The Role of European Networks
ENLIGHTEN is a collaborative research project coordinated at the Copenhagen Business School (CBS) and brings together researchers from CBS as well as the University of Amsterdam, the Central European University and Université Libre de Bruxelles, as well as non-academic partners in Tax Justice Network, European Trade Union Confederation, Finance Watch and Housing Europe. The Chief Scientist of the ENLIGHTEN project is Professor Leonard Seabrooke, Department of Business and Politics, CBS. ENLIGHTEN is the first European Commission Horizon 2020 grant to be based at CBS. The Commission has granted €2,48 million equal to DKK18,2 million.
ENLIGHTEN addresses the ways in which the EU's modes of governance cope with hard times on short-term and long-term issues. To do so it investigates the European governance architecture, which includes: modes of governance; expert networks; policy instruments; and legitimizing narratives. The ENLIGHTEN project suggests that an understanding of temporal issues is crucial to dealing with hard times, and for the legitimacy of the European project overall. It distinguishes between Europe's 'fast-burning' and 'slow-burning' crises, setting out to compare the ways in which EU policy actors have attempted to deal with them. The project maps how European institutions and expert networks handle these crises, and what European modes of governance relate are best suited to addressing these crises.
ENLIGHTEN applies this approach to the study of a range of policy fields that are widely accepted as being critical to both the sustainability of Europe's continent-wide coordinated governance architecture and the responsiveness of Europe's democratic polity. The three policy fields specifically addressed are: (1) Banking Crisis and Fiscal Sustainability; (2) Deficit Reduction and Continuity of Public Services; and (3) Youth Employment and Inclusive Growth.
ENLIGHTEN employs a combination of methods to investigate the above, including content analysis of policy documents, network analysis on professional networks, and sequence analysis on professional careers, as well as personal interviews. The project uses these innovative methods, developed at DBP and CBS over the past years,. Overall ENLIGHTEN will map, differentiate, and articulate how policymakers and experts operate in their networks in fast- and slow-burning crises, and what modes of governance are best for maintaining European legitimacy in governing through hard times.

COFFERS - Combating Fiscal Fraud and Empowering Regulators
Since 2008 'fiscal leaks' have become an immediate policy challenge for EU governments, partly as a result of tax abuse. The COFFERS project unfolds as EU tax authorities transition to a new era in tackling tax abuse based upon policy innovation at the OECD, EU and national levels. COFFERS recognizes this creates a state of flux where much tax authority expertise regarding past regulations, systems and practices is now irrelevant and understanding has, instead, to focus upon the on-going change process. Deploying principles of evolutionary political economy COFFERS both studies and is an integral part of this change process. COFFERS recognizes that identifying and tackling the tax gap to relieve inequality is the ultimate aim. Noting the tax gap exists both domestically and internationally and ranges from criminal money laundering to sophisticated tax avoidance, COFFERS benchmarks current understanding of these issues, undertakes comparative analysis of approaches taken to tackle them across EU Member States, and assesses resources being allocated to the task of closing the tax gap. In parallel expert networks in business, the tax profession, secrecy jurisdictions and the criminal economy that develop the mechanisms undermining the expected effectiveness of tax systems will be appraised, especially with regard to responses to regulatory changes taking place. This results in COFFERS outputs that transmit analysis, risk assessment and policy advice. Deliverables of use to EU tax authorities include new tax gap analyses by state, tax risk maps identifying risk by jurisdiction, a new anatomy of money laundering risk, and tools to help tax authorities understand the risks that they face domestically and internationally. COFFERS delivers value for money in enhancing tax yield, effectiveness in creating the tools to achieve that goal, and behavioral change in taxpayers and their advisers as a result of recommendations made, all with the aim of reducing inequality.
Day of start 1st of November2016. Granted amount from the H2020 program for the 3 year project is €4.986.989.

People holding yard sales in Galax will now be able to post signs directing potential buyers to their homes.
Before, the city code only allowed yard sale signs to be displayed at the location of the yard sale, which prevented sellers from doing much promotion.
Galax City Council held a public hearing on the amendments to the yard sale ordinance in March, and later voted to approve the changes.
Staff Reports
Recent arrests in Galax included assault, possession of burglary tools and larceny.
According to a report issued by the Galax Police Department:
• Josiah Tanner Williams, 24, of Galax, was arrested on March 21 by Officer Chris Hines and charged with felony parole violation and misdemeanor assault and battery.
• Jamie Allen Sharpe, 38, of Galax, was arrested on March 22 by Sgt. Shawny Jones and charged with felony assault on a family member (third or more offense).
The Carroll County Sheriff's Office and the family of a deputy who died in the line of duty received memorial plaques from the International Conference of Police Chaplains last week.
The plaques honor Deputy Curtis Allen Bartlett, 32, who was involved in a fatal crash during a pursuit in Carroll County on March 9.
Retired Galax Parks & Recreation Director Dave Nelson received a special honor from the Galax City Council at Monday night's meeting: the road from South Main Street into Felts Park and the recreation center's parking lot was renamed "Dave Nelson Drive."
Nelson was given a replica of the street sign for himself, as well as others for his family members and friends.
HILLSVILLE – A Michigan man facing charges in Carroll County threatened to bring legal action against the county in connection with law enforcement actions when he spoke to the Carroll County Board of Supervisors earlier this month.
In his remarks, Keith Olson of Michigan alleged that the county is operating outside of the traditional framework for county government with its police enforcement efforts on Interstate 77.
Staff Report
CHRISTIANSBURG – Judge Robert Turk ruled on Monday that only parts of Natalie Keepers' testimony will be admissible due to improper interrogation techniques by police.
Only information gathered during the first three hours of day one, and all of the second day of the two-day interrogation, will be allowed in her two-week jury trial, currently scheduled to start Feb. 5, 2018.
Four people were arrested and charged in connection with a burglary on March 28 in Galax
The Galax Police Department was notified by an off-duty Virginia State Police Special Agent that he was responding to suspicious activity at a residence on Glendale Road in the city, according to a police report.
"Sgt. Jacob Vaughan and Officer Chris Hines responded and discovered that entry had been gained into a home while the resident was away. The state police agent had detained the suspects," the report said.
INDEPENDENCE ― Grayson County VFW Post #7726 is seeking new members to assist with continuing services for veterans and various community service projects throughout the area.
The post is looking for membership growth with the VFW, as well as the VFW Auxiliary; and reminds the public that both older and younger members are needed, at any capacity they can serve.
The Better Business Bureau is warning consumers about an old scam with a new twist.
The "Can You Hear Me?" scam has long been used to coerce businesses into purchasing office supplies and directory ads they never actually ordered, but now it's targeting individual consumers, as well.
In January, more than half of the reports to BBB Scam Tracker were about this one scam, the agency said in a news release.
Two individuals from Mount Airy, N.C. were arrested after a police chase in Carroll County on Sunday night. The man driving the vehicle faces multiple charges in both localities.

The Old Spaghetti Factory relocated to the Forks Market a few years ago, but didn't lose any of its appeal. The food is good (not top quality, but more like home cookin'), but there are at least three reasons why I love this place: first, the price is unbeatable! Most entrees are around $10, which includes a salad starter, unlimited fresh sourdough bread, free refills (although the portions are so generous, you probably won't need to ask for more!), and a small dessert of spumoni or vanilla icecream. Second, the decor is fantastic; it has a 1920s/30s streetcar feel. Reserve the grotto table for 6-10 guests when you go. It is a little wine cellar just off the main dining area, and fairly private. It's very popular, though, so reservations recommended. Finally, I have three small children. This restaurant is very family-friendly, and again, the price makes it very attractive.

|How to use UpToDate with absolute source file name (not patterns)
|Tue, 08 May 2001 19:02:23 GMT
Can the "uptodate" task be used with an absolute file pathname for a source file? (I think) I want to something like this: <uptodate property="isUpToDate" targetfile=".flagfile" > <srcfiles dir="."> <include name="${sourceFile}" /> </srcfiles> </uptodate> If property sourceFile is a relative name, the name works as a file pattern, and everything works. However, if sourceFile is an absolute pathname (on Windows, so starting with "C:/..."), the uptodate task doesn't work. (It always thinks the target file is up to date.) Can the uptodate task be used with absolute pathnames? Thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Barclay Digital Focus email@example.com

Supercharged technology and artificial intelligence may just pick up signs of extraterrestrial intelligence.
Want to know where the search for life in the universe stands? This is the man to ask.
Researchers at SETI were (very) cautiously optimistic about a mysterious new signal that could've come from extraterrestrials a few star systems away — but it seems the much more likely explanation is the right one.
The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) program has spent decades scanning the heavens looking for potentially alien signals — and it sounds they just picked one up.
Reports that a mysterious star could have been dimming due to the efforts of an alien race made headlines last month, though now researchers say extraterrestrials are probably not to blame. At least, are far as we can prove at this point.

One after another, the long-established physicians stood behind the podium to repeat the same mantra to the fresh-faced medical students.
Be passionate about your career, they insisted. Be compassionate with your patients, they added. And above all else, be human with everything you do.
I didn't expect such a warm message at an otherwise technical-minded orientation for the summer shadowing program at St. Mary Medical Center in Hobart.

- 2GB RAM, 16GB Flash Storage
- 8.3" Full HD IPS (1920x1200) Display
- Wi-Fi, BT, MicroSD Slot, Dual Camera
- Android 4.2.2 Upgradeable to Android 4.4(Kit Kat)
This review is from: LG G Pad 8.3 Tablet - Quad-Core 2GB RAM 16GB Flash 8.3" Full HD Display Android 4.2, Black (LGV500.AUSABK)
Crazy fast processor for a midsize tablet, games and apps load very fast and run smooth, I haven't had any sort of lag on any apps I have, a great choice for anyone who does alot of multitasking, LG's 'slide aside' also makes multitasking easy.
Quick and easy setup (It does ask you to sign up for a couple unnecessary things on start though, if you dont want to just tap the home button).
Sturdily built and well constructed, the rear camera lens in recessed far enough in the metal frame to protect it from scratches just as well as any other tablet/phone can.
Great display quality can be bright enough to see in almost any environment, the color on mine was clear and perfect.
16GB storage with microSD slot to add up to 64GB, 16GB is more than enough for me but its nice to know I won't need to worry about running out of space.
Sleeps extremely well using VERY little power when left on and not in use, the battery lasts long in use as well this tablet is perfect for people who forget to turn things off.
Miracast & SmartShare both worked great and I had no trouble streaming media with either of them.
The one thing I hate so very much about this tablet itself is the cameras. I take a TON of pictures, if anything the thing I would use this the most for IS taking pictures, I have alot of cats and like to randomly take pics of them whenever they are acting silly. The cameras are great in daylight & MOST indoor lighting, but I have 60w equivalent CFL 'warm' lighting throughout my house & at night for some reason all the pictures come out very dark even if brightness & exposure are maxed out, i have to lay down with the ceiling light directly shining in my face to get a clear picture of myself, due to this I can't take pictures/clips at home after around 6PM which well really really sucks.
For something that costs over 300$, the box it comes in has it extraordinarily unprotected, I was shocked to open it and see the screen just right there pressed against the front of under less than 1/16" of 'cardboard' thats too thin to even qualify as cardboard. Whose idea was that I mean really?? What?? Sticking this in a plain bubble envelope is far more protective than the box this ships in! I noticed several low reviews complaining of screen/color issues and I'd assume this might have something to do with it. Mines perfectly clear & looks great.
A semi-con is that its just too new, not alot of cases to choose from that fit, it definitely should have shipped with some sort of protective case, especially considering the badly designed box it ships in.
Other Thoughts:
Personally i think tablets having an IR to turn them into expensive remotes is kind of a con haha. Yes its a useful function, but I've spilled alot of stuff on my remotes ruining many of them over the years and this isn't something I'd want to be tempted to use as one. But really the only real cons for me is the camera flaws and the horrible packaging. I'd give this a 5/5 if it weren't for the two major cons it works wonderfully, long battery life, fast, everything you could want really its hard to complain. Personally for me its more of a 2/5 but that's because the camera is so so very important to me, but I'm giving a 4/5 cause other than that its a wonderful tablet great for beginners & experienced users alike.

SFD: 2 residents hospitalized after fire destroys home
Two people were injured in a fire that seriously damaged a West Seattle house this evening, the Seattle Fire Department said.
A man sustained burns on his head and a woman suffered smoke inhalation when the fire started in their house in the 1000 block of 35th Avenue Southwest, spokesman Kyle Moore said. The two residents were taken to Harborview Medical Center.
The house is a total loss, Moore said.
Officials responded to the fire shortly before 8 p.m. and found the two residents already outside.
The fire caused a tall column of black smoke, said Malik Weary, who was driving by the neighborhood and stopped when he saw the fire.
"It would have been a terrible situation if no one had arrived soon," Weary said. "When I saw the flames I knew it was all gone from the inside."
Both neighboring houses were evacuated as a precaution because the flames were spreading, Moore said, but neither was damaged.
The fire was controlled about an hour after 48 firefighters responded.

I had a pretty messy situation with a DUI/DWI that I hadn't taken care of and had allowed to languish for about 10 years. To further complicate things, I had moved out of the state that the infraction had originally happened in, so this was going to be a difficult affair.
I shopped around for representation in the area and one thing that really stuck out about Vincent: whereas everyone else was basically saying it was a slamdunk and that they could get all charges dismissed within 30 days, guaranteed; Vincent was honest with me in saying that this was a complicated case and that he couldn't guarantee such a thing. By no means did he admonish me, but he did make clear how difficult my case could be because of the time elapsed and my move from the state.
After this conversation, I knew I had my attorney. Vincent clearly had a level of integrity that is a cut above everyone else's. Vincent fought hard during my case. I was facing extensive fines and possibly jailtime. Fortunately, thanks to his tenacity, Vincent was able to get my case dismissed and I was able to walk away with a totally clean record. I can't thank him enough for his integrity, hard-work, and grit. I highly recommend placing Mr. Russo on your shortlist of possible representation, you won't regret it.

Man or Beast?
How is what we are different from what we pretend to be?
There are animals loose in the streets
Where two important crossings meet
They flee from things that never come
Inside themselves, these things are from.
Guided malice, we only observe
Is erratic when paired with one bad nerve.
So the panic spreads a dark disease
That encircles our hearts and rides on the breeze.
We watch familiar monsters as they try to take our dreams
To smother them in their shadow, their land of death and screams.
Not with hoof or fang but on a thunderous stampede.
The fire of mad nations, rage and war and greed.
Poising on pedestals of self-defined superiority
We say we are the best, more than the rest, not animals, we're free!
But which are we? Man or beast?
Its now very hard to tell.
If we rise from selfish need, this world will have no kinds of hell.
We can be beasts of peace, or we'll bid our wild farewell.

By Arthur H. Rotstein, Associated Press Writer
TUCSON, Ariz. A Border Patrol agent fatally shot a "peaceful and passive" illegal immigrant without provocation as he tried to surrender, a prosecutor told jurors Wednesday during opening statements of the agent's retrial.
Nicholas Corbett is charged with second-degree murder, manslaughter and negligent homicide in the death of Francisco Javier Dominguez Rivera, of Puebla, Mexico. Jurors can convict on only one charge.
Corbett's first trial ended in a mistrial in March because of a hung jury. The case is unusual because it involves state criminal charges but is being tried in federal court because Corbett is a federal law enforcement agent.
At least five times during opening statements, special prosecutor Grant Woods alluded to the peaceful nature of Dominguez, who was killed about 100 yards north of the Mexican border.
Dominguez "was not hotheaded," said Woods, a former Arizona attorney general. He said Corbett had lied in alleging that Dominguez threatened to smash his head with a rock, as well as in his explanation of the confrontation and how the shooting occurred.
Woods said Wednesday that he hoped to show Dominguez's good character through witnesses, including a woman who had employed him near New York City.
Woods said Wednesday that Dominguez, his two brothers and a brother's girlfriend had crossed into Arizona on Jan. 12, 2007, but decided to return to Mexico because of bad weather and a number of nearby patrol agents. They were near the border when they saw Corbett's vehicle heading toward them.
"They didn't run; they didn't hide," Woods said. "They figured they would be apprehended."
He said the brothers and girlfriend will testify that all four were surrendering when Corbett hit Dominguez in the back of the head and was pushing him down from behind with the gun in his left hand when the weapon fired.
Woods said an autopsy showed the bullet entered under Dominguez's left armpit, "blowing out the entire lower part of his heart."
But defense attorney Sean Chapman said Corbett defended himself with deadly force, as state law allows.
"The evidence will show that Francisco Dominguez was not a peaceful man," Chapman said, "that he had a rock the size of a baseball or softball, and tried to smash it into the head of a federal law enforcement officer."
He also called the prosecution's three witnesses "absolute liars" and suggested the Cochise County Sheriff's Office conducted an incompetent investigation. He said investigators didn't find a pair of gloves that Dominguez had been wearing until a year later at the crime scene and that they didn't test for gunshot residue on Corbett's hands, among other claims.
Chapman said his client was "accused falsely of a crime he did not commit. He is innocent."
Conviction on the second-degree murder charge could bring a sentence of 10 to 22 years in prison. The manslaughter charge carries a possible seven to 21 years sentence, and negligent homicide four to eight years.

I visited this facility
Everything in Galloway Ridge was fine, but we've been living in single-family homes, so to move into smaller accommodations is kind of an issue. The food was good. Generally, the residents looked very pleased and happy with their accommodations and their association with other people there.

I was impressed with Galloway Ridge at Fearrington. The apartments were very luxurious. The staff looked very friendly. They had nice athletic facilities, fitness quarters, swimming pool, and library. The dining facilities were excellent, and the food was very good.

I visited this facility
I think Galloway Ridge has only been open for six years, and the facilities are beautiful. They have a movie theater, plays, and tons of things. The place was absolutely fabulous, and you can imagine that it's absolutely expensive. The room was beatuful. It was big and had everything you would want -- full kitchen and everything. The entry fee started at $285,000 and went to $1.1 million, and the monthly fees were from $3,500 to $5,300. They treated us well, and the sales person was very nice. He showed us lots of things and gave us lots of information. We had lunch, and it was nice.

Galloway Ridge at Fearington is a very nice facility, but it is expensive. If you have a good amount of money, this is a nice place to stay. They have very nice rooms. They do have activities like all the other retirement places. I would also recommend this if you have the money.

Angel and I were together for this review after I brought him up to Kentucky to give my Cadet Joint Service Honor Guard Academy cadets a taste of what armed exhibition drill is all about.
The DrillAmerica M1 Garand and M1903 are the best ceremonial rifles you can buy especially since they come in chromed versions. For Drillers, no better beginning rifle and these rifles can last well into years of exhibition drill if the Driller does not desire switching to a demilitarized rifle.

Hi to everyone! Need your help.
A few days ago I bought My Passport Essential 500 GB WDME5000R and faced a problem - my PC (Windows XP) doesn't recognize it(((
It shows that My Passport is connected and moreover indicates that this is WD5000BEV External USB Device. I can even safely remove it from my computer) BUT... every time I enter "My Computer" folder...the system doesn't recognize the disk and I can't access it.
Tried several times on another PC with Windows XP, with other USB cable and different USB ports but nothing helped.
So could you please tell me how can I solve this problem? There are no any drivers on the Internet.
What should I do with the disk?

As I had posted in my earlier email, I would like to have Pooled Mean
Group Estimation using --xtpmg-- command for panel data with N = 476
and T=30. The model is not solved and I get the message that the
"initial values not feasible".
Can anyone help me what could be the reason(s) of this and how one
could tackle this issue? I did not get any response in my earlier
posting. This time I am am hopeful that somebody out there will be
kind enough to provide me with at least some hints.
Hoping to hear from you.

Haha, funny, lol!
Stream of consciousness writing can be interesting, as this is, but also confusing. Gave this an "I Like It" vote. Just the same.
The readability of this can be improved by:
1. Capitalizing the 1st letter of the 1st word of each sentence.
2. Double spacing between sentences.
3. Skipping a line between intended paragraphs.
4. Start a new paragraph each time a character may speak, in quotes "", in his/her turn.
All of this will help you to clarify your own thinking as well.
Thank you for becoming a fan. Most appreciative.
Happy trails,
Ed Bradley.

They had many great statistics and one woman with a personal experience. All in all it was a great piece. At the end they ran through the CCW application process and provided a link on thier website for the application package.

|1,300 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
BOOK NOW!! Just one block from the beach and a public access, Seaduced-N-Sea is a charming second story unit that sits right on the water in beautiful Carolina Beach. Sitting on Canal Drive, you are in the middle of everything. Seaduced-N-Sea is located on the north end of the island.This means you are right on the canal, which is 1/4 mile from the waterway, and a very short walk to the ocean. Bed and bath linens are provided for you. If you have a boat and would like it to be just outside your door, or simply want a nice place on the water for you and your family to vacation and relax, this is the place for you!
For an additional fee, you can dock your boat and park your trailer on the property.
Fisherman's Paradise: You can dock your boat here and keep the trailer on the property. There is a cleaning table on the dock. Located approximately 1/2 mile from the Intercoastal Waterway and ocean. A fee may apply for using the dock, depending on the size of your boat.
Great for kids and pets: The shared back yard is fenced and gated. A great place for friendly pets and kids. The kids can fish right off the dock. Who knows what they may catch! Seaduced-N-Sea is one block to the beach. A very easy walk.
Location, Location, Location!: Seaduced-N-Sea is located on beautiful Pleasure Island. Staying here, you are about 1 mile to the north end where you can take your 4wd vehicle on the beach. The boardwalk is about 6 short blocks away. In the summer, there are fireworks and live music on Thursday evenings. Don't forget the donuts!! Britt's Donuts are truly the best I've ever tasted. At Christmas time, we have a Holiday Flotilla. You can sit on the dock, sip on a cup of hot chocolate (or good warm spirits) and watch the decorated boats go by. There is a 'party boat' that passes by pretty much every night. Fun to see all the folks having a good time. This home is right in the middle of everything!
We were able to get away for a long weekend and decided to stay at Seaduced-N-Sea. What a wonderful place! The decor was bright and beachy. The dock over the canal was a nice place to sit and have a drink and watch the boats go by. I would certainly suggest to anyone to stay at Seaduced. I truly had a hard time leaving
A great family place, close to everything! Roomy and very accommodating! The deck and view was awesome!
Was a very nice beach house. Kitchen stocked well and accomidations were good. Beautiful view. Only suggestion (which may be in the works) is a new roof on the patio deck. Thanks.
Absolutely love this place. Very quaint & perfect for our family.
This home is located so close to everything! We really enjoyed being on the water and the beach access is really close as well. We were able to meet the owner, Dennis, and he could not have been nicer. We are already looking forward to renting this house again in the future!
This was the perfect place for our family! My boys (4 & 6) loved being able to fish right off the lower deck in the back of the house. They fished almost every morning and evening! And it was so nice to sit on the back deck and drink our morning coffee or just enjoy the views of the canal. The living room and kitchen were roomy and light and very well stocked! The sleep number bed in the master was wonderful to sleep on! The house was also very clean. The only complaint that I might have would be that there are 2 people involved in the renting/communication. I'm assuming an owner and a manager maybe? So it was a little confusing at the beginning, but when we had a question after we arrived I texted one of the numbers and I got a super quick answer! Thanks for a great vacation! If we come back to the area, we would definitely stay again!
I highly recommend this house! It is clean and convenient, we were able to tie our boat right behind the house. Its less than a 10 minute walk to the beach, and about 15-20 min walk to the boardwalk. The owners are terrific!! They are so accommodating. They provided linens, towels, cookware, spices, etc. We will definitely stay here next year!
Come stay at Seaduced-N-Sea and enjoy all the fun things Pleasure Island has to offer. Bring your boat and dock it right behind the house, fish off the dock, or walk less than 200 steps to the beach. Located on the island is one of the NC Aquariums, a state park, the Fort Fisher Ferry that goes to Southport, restaurants, surfing, charter fishing, pier fishing, Fort Fisher Museum. Approximately 20 miles from Carolina Beach is Historic Downtown Wilmington that has restaurants, shopping, museums and the NC Battleship tours.

These shoes are great. OluKais are great in general. This is my 3rd pair of OluKais, one tall boot and 2 shoes like these. They're very cute, waterproof and comfortable. They look great with skinny jeans and no socks. Soft and comfortable with no sock, too. They are true to size. Good shoes.

Comments about Womens OluKai Nohea Nubuck Casual Shoe:
I ordered these for a trip to Rome. They came in the mail the day before I left and I took a chance and wore them. Best decision ever! Miles and miles of walking through cobble stone streets, gravel paths, slick museum floors without any break in. Not a blister or chafe mark, even without socks. The drop down heel was great for jetting through airport security as well as cooling off on warmer days. going to order the canvas ones right now!

We got hats at the department store upstairs. If you need any swimming/diving gear, go to the shopping center across the street where the gear is a little cheaper. Not a whole lot of variety in the clothing, but the prices are about average for Palau. There are also souvenirs and T-shirts for sale.
this shopping center is the central point of the city - best meeting spot and a place to buy stuff. However as anything in Palau, it is expensive and there is not really variable local dishes. In front of its entrance there is a small local shop, which provides local food.
We stayed in the hotel just next to WCTC for ten days. The supermarket had most of what we needed—Greek yogurt, apples, nuts, fresh crunchy cucumbers and daily ripe papayas. We bought several plastic snap storage boxes and some ceramic serving spoons to take home. Prices are good. They don't charge any fees for using our US credit cards. Staff...
Lots of souvenirs to choose from and a bunch of other stuff, a small sized department store - essentially!
Plenty of options to buy souvenirs and get market items to avoid paying the high prices at the hotels. Not a long trip from PRR.
This store has the best selection of any of the stores in Palau. There's a grocery and pharmacy on the ground floor, and electronics, clothing, and souvenirs on the second floor. It's location is surprising and it isn't well marked. If you're across the street from Mingles So Thai, you're in the right spot.
Great place to stop for souvenirs. Conveniently located on the "main drag" in downtown Koror, the second floor is your standard "big box" retailer. It sells everything a tourist might want to bring home - from local snacks to T-shirts, magnets, and key chains. It also has a large selection of shells and wood carvings.
One problem in Koror is...
You can find lots of daily supplies and souvenirs here. However, don't think this is the kind of big shopping center you are used to. But this is the best you can find in Palau.
ok shopping center, koror is quite small city, so this is the place for u if u need to buy something
This is like the Walmart of Palau. If you left something at home this is the place, but be prepared to pay as their prices are expensive. If you need shipping materials (such as boxing up storyboards) go to the WCTC office supply store (opposite side of the road, south of the WCTC department store, about a block before the...

Entry Title: "Promise 2"
Name: Flokje van Lith , Netherlands
Category and Expertise: Children|Digitally Enhanced, Professional
Entry Description: Promise is a lengthy project I'm still working on and will consist of several works.
I remember myself as a little girl often playing on my own. One of the things I did was to bury my dolls (my girls) in a secret place in our backyard. I fantasized about a magical dreamworld where my girls where going to.
Promise shows a physical space that stands for a symbolic, transcendent space in another kind of world inhabited by these children.
The beauty of childhood and this fantasy is further emphasized by the careful and meticulous editing of this work.
Flokje van Lith (1969, Leiden, NL) studied photography at the Royal Academy of Arts, the Hague. In her work she explores childhood and its underlying traumas and issues as well as the beauty of innocence and adolescence. Her contemporary portraits have been edited with utmost care and precision to create paint-like images.

Star Kitchen: Candace Nelson

Candace Nelson's kitchen
When Candace Nelson opened her first Sprinkles shop in Beverly Hills in 2005, she sold out of cupcakes within hours. Since that day, her life has been cupcakes 24-7. She sells about 1,500 a day at her original location and runs nine other stores across the country, plus she's a judge on Food Network's Cupcake Wars. We figured she'd take a break from all of the cupcakes at home, but no: She uses her super-mod home kitchen in Beverly Hills to test new flavors.
Finicky oven
Candace's bakery ovens are high-grade machines calibrated to the exact degree. Her home oven isn't as precise, but she has a sixth sense for when her cupcakes are done: "I'm not an oven snob. At home, I can make do with anything."
California light
Two skylights, including one above this wall, let in so much light that Candace needs just four recessed bulbs. "The sun bounces off the brick wall and around the kitchen," she says.
Baking station
Sprinkles Cupcakes has a rotating menu of about 50 flavors, and Candace is always dreaming up new ones. She keeps her kitchen stocked with the same ingredients that she uses in the shops, and she works at this extra-large island.
Indoor garden
The kitchen has a built-in trough filled with snake plants. Luckily for Candace, they're low-maintenance: They get plenty of light, and the sink is nearby for easy watering. "To say I lack a green thumb is an understatement."
Keeping the decor
Even the towels match the yellow, green and white color scheme.
Bringing the outside in
The big windows help Candace feel like she's always outdoors.
