Loved everything about this trip. So well organised, the guides were knowledgeable and caring, and pushed you to just outside your comfort zone, the gear was first rate, the size of the tour was very manageable, the food was excellent, and Tasmania absolutely shone. We might have just picked the best week ever to do this trip weather wise, but I think with the knowledge and experience of the guides it would have been a great trip even if it was snowing in February, which is likely in Tasmania! Organise yourself a tour now, don't wait. My new moto for life is WHY NOT, and this trip was everything I hoped it would be. A lot of that has everything to do with the fantastic group of ladies I travelled with and the rest is up to the well organised tour and fab guides. Thanks Ashton and Mick - Loved it all, even when I thought climbing Mt Amos was a stupid idea!

J. Maddison. Borenore, NSW. Aust.
Great trip with lots of variety in activity. The locations visited were great - extremely memorable and uniquely Tasmanian. We wouldn't change a thing! The trip adequately also catered for different fitness levels (and diets).
In addition to a well planned trip, we had fantastic guides - Lilly and Brenton. The trip could not have been as enjoyable without the knowledge and information that they provided and their passion for what they do. We cannot be grateful enough. Their care and concern, and efforts with food we're well above expectation. The level of detail and creativity by Lilly with food, in such a limited environment was amazing!
Tasi Expeditions well done! Safety and customer service were continuously demonstrated to be a priority.
Karen Z. via Trip Advisor.
Both of our guides ( Ashton and Pip) were excellent. They made me feel safe, they had great knowledge about Tassie and they had great energy. Because of high temperatures and bush fire threat our guides had to change parts of the itinerary , but they were very upfront about that and they still managed to keep everyone happy. Don't lose those 2 young champions.
C. Bingham. Minnamura, NSW.
Maria Island was great, nice scenery, team spirit of the group, quality of food. We had 2 tour guides in our trip, Pip was golden ... Sharing her love for the nature and Tasmania. She was really caring and available. Professional and friendly, I highly recommend her and need to congratulate for her a great job.
A. Hebert. Singapore.
The excellent Guides Holly and Ash and the flexibility they provided to make the trip challenging, enjoyable and fun. It made me feel motivated to participate in future trips.
K. Crabtree. Felixstow, SA.
Holly and Ash our guides made a great trip an outstanding and unforgettable adventure. A great group of like minded participants helped and all individuals needs and abilities were catered for. The 6 days were full of new experiences with plenty of activities and great food (prepared by our expert guides). I would/will recommend this trip to anyone looking for a well organised active tour with variety, excitement, great scenery (you have to hike, cycle, kayak to see it) and good home made meals. Thank you to Holly, Ash and Tasmanian Expeditions!
K. Crabtree Felixstow, SA, Australia
Great guides, good food and good company combined with challenging and fun outdoor activities made the trip unique. I felt like I had enjoyed a grease and oil change by the end of it! Thank you to Ash and Holly!
E. Cooper. Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia
Climbing/walking up Mt Amos. It was a challenging climb that left you with a real sense of achievement once you reached the summit and saw the view of Wineglass Bay.
K. McDee. Waverton, NSW, Australia
A wonderful trip! Ash and Ashton were fantastic guides, they were informative, caring, a good laugh and great cooks. Perfect mix of different types of activities. Maria Island is beautiful and we saw lots of animals and at night the big sky and the stars are breathtaking. It was a small taste of what Tassie has to offer and now I want to see more!
K. Murray. Templestowe, VIC. Australia
Hello - Just a quick message to say what a wonderful time I had on the trip.My compliments to Simon, Thomo and Michael who were guides of the utmost high standard, always helpful, upbeat and fun. Food was excellent.....breakfast, lunch and dinner plus pre-dinner nibblies which everybody looked forward to every afternoon.A wonderful trip! I would recommend this trip to anybody who likes the active outdoors!
A. Reid. West Wollongong, NSW.
Simon and Lily were wonderful guides. We enjoyed their company, their expertise, and their care very much.
For the bikes, I remember asking whether each bike would have bottle cage and small bag to carry our phone and camera. Turns out not all bikes have bottle cage and none has small saddle bag.
M. Chan. Singapore.
Perfect combination of different activities, great group of people and scenery, in particular Maria Island, made this a memorable trip. Big shout out to the guides who were organised, enthusiastic and personable. Highly commended goes to Paul whose passion for the Tassie state & wilderness was impressive. Well done guys!
Ellen & Jarrod. Ormeau, QLD. Australia
Thanks so much for such a wonderful adventure! And a very special thanks to Simon and Tilda who were largely responsible for making it fun and interesting!!
S. Porter. Manvel, TX. USA.
My daughter and I just completed the 6 day cycle, kayak, hike trip with Tas Ex. An outstanding trip with a great group of like minded people. As first timer adventure holidayers we were impressed with the relaxed nature of the trip and the feeling of a special holiday. Our guides Thommo and Stef were fantastic. Informative, enthusiastic, good cooks and obviously loved what they were doing. Even dragged "The Boss" out of the office when we blew a tyre on the trailer. He was able to provide us with a spare trailer until ours was repaired, all within about 36hours. Maria Island is a very special part of the world. Highly recommended. Thanks Tas Ex for a wonderful 6 days. Already looking for our next adventure.
Jeff and Jodie. via Trip Advisor.
My 12 year old son and I embarked on the "cycle, kayak & tour tassie" 6 day trip. The two guides were interested, involved and thoroughly entertaining, not to mention wonderful cooks. Tasmania was more than I had ever imagined and we experienced serenity on long coastal bike rides, marvelled at the vistas after long climbs and saw pristine beaches at every turn. There were ten of us on the tour and any nerves I had had at being at close quarters with strangers were quickly dispelled as we all found a mutual love for what we were experiencing. What a relief to have accommodation pre-booked after a busy day and always in great places. Maria Island was a highlight - the climb was incredible. There were times the bike rides were a bit much for my son but he was encouraged to join Alex in the coach, who included him fantastically. An amazing experience.
karenc286. via Trip Advisor
Tommo and Simon were amazing. They did all that they could to make sure that we all had a fantastic vacation and it really is these two who turned a good vacation into a great one. The way they worked to make sure that everyone was accommodated, fit or unfit, fast or slow was just great. I would highly recommend Tas Ex and certainly you will be top of our list for consideration when we come back.
Andrew Wray. Lions Bay, BC. Canada
Thanks to Tasmania Expeditions for a great cycle, hike and kayak trip. The tour guides were excellent and I have learnt a great deal about Tasmania, it's history, flora & fauna. Can't wait to book another holiday with Tas Ex.

World Expeditions
World Expeditions is one of the world's leading adventure travel companies offering ground breaking itineraries on every continent. The company has been operating small group trekking and adventure travel holidays and vacations since 1975.
We are widely recognized for ground breaking Responsible Tourism initiatives. In particular, the award winning Community Project Travel Program helps to improve the living conditions of some of the world's most remote communities
Today, with offices around the globe, we offer more than 500 stand alone itineraries; small group active adventures and expeditions, cycling and walking tours and cultural journeys. Each itinerary has several scheduled departure dates throughout the season.
Supported by some of the world's most experienced and respected adventurers, including mountaineers Peter Hillary and Tim Macartney-Snape working with us as specialist guides, World Expeditions' has helped shape the adventure travel industry standards since its inception almost four decades ago.
Our all-inclusive, no hidden extras pricing policy combined with longer, creative itineraries and the use of quality ground services attracts people who have high expectations of their travel experiences.
In 2004, we became the first adventure operator whose product was being distributed on Lonely Planet's Travel Services section on their website.
World Expeditions is truly global company with offices in London, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, as well as Auckland, Ottawa and Montreal.
Why Travel with World Expeditions?
We own most of our operational bases around the world. This ensures that we can provide high quality trips of exceptional value with no hidden extras. Our trips are all inclusive, so there is little need to pay for anything once your trip commences until it ends. Our hands-on approach and years of experience has ensured a safety record second to none as we've pioneered some of the most unique itineraries in the adventure market place today.
World Expeditions has been seriously committed to responsible travel and true sustainability since we began in 1975 when we established our philosophy and stated ideal which was to "take only photographs and leave only footprints".
Almost four decades of pioneering adventure travel has proved the positive conservation outcomes when travel is managed for sustainability. We believe a responsible, long-term vision can deliver true sustainability and with the participation of all our clients and business partners the challenge is being met and achieved.
An example of this commitment to sustainability has been our efforts to preserve the forests of Nepal. This has involved changing an entrenched culture of burning wood for fuel. World Expeditions has pioneered the change to kerosene as an alternative to wood on all trekking expeditions in Nepal. We do not have camp fires and we strongly discourage trekkers from buying wood-fueled hot showers in lodges along the trail. As a founding supporter of the International Porter Protection Group (IPPG) we also lead the way in porter protection by providing a good working wage for all Nepalese staff, food and extra clothing for those working above the tree line, life insurance cover and emergency helicopter insurance. Our efforts were recognized at the World Travel Mart in 2006 when our porter policies received a 'Highly Commended' in the Mountain Environment category.
Our philanthropic program ensures we 'give something back'. Our current initiative is Community Project Travel. The concept behind our Community Project Travel range of trips is based on the ethos of "travel with a purpose". It is a range of small group adventures, each about two weeks in length, whereby participants commit four to five days of their holiday to making a difference to a community in need. A portion of the traveller's participation fee contributes to the associated material costs of the project. In 2006 our travellers helped to refurbish the Saramthali school in Nepal, collected 7 tonnes of ghost nets from the Arnhem land coastline, helped to build a new school room for the Xo village in Vietnam as well as erect a footbridge for the village of Qelqanqa in Peru so that kids could access the school safely.
In recognition of our environmental policies, we are the only Travel Company ever to be fully endorsed by the Wilderness Society in Australia. In 2001, we received the National Travel Industry's Environmental Achievement Award, presented by WWF Australia, for our responsible tourism policies.
In addition, we create excellent adventures! Our trips have featured in the world's most prestigious magazines and newspapers including: OUTSIDE magazine, both National Geographic Adventure & National Geographic Traveler magazine, Wanderlust, The Sunday Times, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Australian, The Age, The Sunday Telegraph (UK) plus much more.

Deputy City Editor
Rhone Poulenc Rorer was last night putting the finishing touches to a revised and final offer for Fisons. Market sources said that a bid of at least 260p a share, valuing the group at more than pounds 1.8bn, would emerge today. Fisons yesterday confirmed its rejection of the existing 240p offer launched in August.
A recommendation from the Fisons board was hanging in the balance after the British drugs group issued a statement challenging RPR to pay a price that "fully reflects the exceptional strategic value of Fisons' products, delivery technology and sales and marketing capability". In the absence of an agreement, RPR is expected to launch a dawn raid to pick up shares in the market.
Last night Stuart Wallis, Fisons' chief executive, said RPR had made no effort to negotiate an agreed offer since its original offer was rejected. He said Fisons had "a confident and certain future as an independent company" but admitted that the obstacle to an RPR takeover was simply one of price.
RPR has until tomorrow to revise its bid. Thereafter its offer cannot be changed unless a third party enters the fray. It is thought unlikely that Fisons has a white knight up its sleeve. Yesterday, the British drugs group issued a final list of questions it said RPR should answer. They cast doubt on the ability of RPR, the American arm of France's Rhone Poulenc chemicals and drugs group, to achieve its goal of becoming a major player in the asthma market without buying Fisons.
The questions also pointed to RPR's admitted weakness in Japan and its need to acquire Fisons' European sales and marketing operation. Mr Wallis highlighted Fisons' cash pile worth 50p a share, which implied an offer of just 190p a share for the core pharmaceuticals operation.
Fisons' shares closed 2p higher at 259p yesterday. Trading was relatively light with whispers of today's expected bid only emerging shortly before the market's close. If RPR succeeds in taking over Fisons at 260p, shareholders will have seen their investment more than double since Mr Wallis took over as chief executive in September last year.
After peaking at more than 500p they plunged to 108p at the beginning of this year after a string of profits warnings and run-ins with the US Food and Drug Administration brought the group almost to its knees. After a series of high level resignations following the revelation that profits had been inflated, Mr Wallis had to move fast to repair Fisons' ravaged balance sheet and reputation. In a bold series of moves he sold the research and development arm to Astra of Sweden for pounds 200m and the loss-making scientific instruments divisions for the same amount.
Mr Wallis stands to be handsomely rewarded for the remarkable turnaround. Thanks to the speed with which he patched up Fisons' finances, raising more than analysts ever expected, the company's share price has risen sharply over the past year, taking the value of share options awarded on his appointment to well over pounds 1m. Coupled with compensation for the loss of his pounds 315,000 a year salary, Mr Wallis could walk away from his year at Fisons with almost pounds 2m.
The bid for Fisons is the latest in a string of takeovers in the pharmaceuticals sector over the past two years during which fast increasing pricing pressures and the soaring costs of developing drugs has forced a consolidation of the industry worldwide.

Incredibly, perhaps the most intriguing game on this weekend's schedule is the in-state tussle between Tennessee (0-6 SEC) and Vanderbilt (2-5 SEC). The Vols have won 27 of the past 28 meetings but the Commodores are fired up and optimistic.
Danny Parker went 6-1 on last week's InsideTennessee picks. Randy Moore and Chris Price went 5-2, Josh Woodward 4-3. Price continues to hold the best season's record at 65-15.
What follows are this week's SEC picks, with each staffer's year-to-date record in parenthesis:
Georgia Southern at Alabama: Alabama rolls over GS with ease. Tide, 48-0.
Miss. State vs. Arkansas (Little Rock): Arkansas has things going and is extremely dynamic on offense. State can't match them. Swine, 33-17.
Samford at Auburn: Auburn takes care of business on their way to the showdown. Tigers, 38-6.
Furman at Florida: Wow, some good games on the schedule this weekend. Florida, 33-6.
Kentucky at Georgia: Kentucky is Kentucky. Georgia, 42-10.
LSU at Ole Miss: LSU stays on track. Tigers win, 24-3.
Citadel at South Carolina: Another good one. Gamecocks, 42-0.
Vanderbilt at Tennessee: Tyler Bray is back. Enough said. Tennessee, 21-17.
Georgia Southern at Alabama: Breaking news hits many Crimson Tide fans hard while in Tuscaloosa after learning that Paul "Bear" Bryant is deceased. Alabama, 45-0
Miss. State vs. Arkansas (Little Rock): Every time I see the word Arkansas now I hear Michael J. Fox's voice from his work in the blockbuster hit "Incredible Journey." Arkansas, 49-7
Samford at Auburn: The Tigers get a win over an in-state opponent in November but not the one their faithful prefer. Auburn, 44-21
Furman at Florida: Coach Will Muschamp is all smiles after Jeff Demps accumulates 263 yards of total offense. Florida, 28-0
Kentucky at Georgia: The simplest path for an SEC Eastern Division team to take to Atlanta gets even easier with the Wildcats in town. Georgia, 38-12
LSU at Ole Miss: With no dinner to stand on in Oxford, coach Les Miles heads out of town hungry but with another win. LSU, 48-6
Citadel at South Carolina: Alshon Jeffrey's performance sparks coach Steve Spurrier into pondering adopting a 20-year-old. S. Carolina, 40-0
Vanderbilt at Tennessee: Old quarterback, new team. Vols break their dreary second-half scoreless streak and turn I-40 West into the Trail of Tears. Tennessee, 26-21
Georgia Southern at Alabama: No mercy. The Tide still has a shot at the national title. Bama, 49-7
Miss. State vs. Arkansas (Little Rock): The Razorbacks can't be as good as they looked against Tennessee. Still ... Hogs, 27-13
Samford at Auburn: I love SEC football but even I wouldn't watch this. Auburn, 42-14
Furman at Florida: I love SEC football but I wouldn't watch this, either. Gators, 45-7
Kentucky at Georgia: I feel sorry for UK offensive coordinator Randy Sanders, who once played and coached for UT. A lot of high school teams have more weapons than the Big Blue has. Dawgs, 31-7
LSU at Ole Miss: The Houston Nutt farewell tour continues. Tigers, 42-7
Citadel at South Carolina: Who needs Marcus Lattimore? Gamecocks, 38-7
Vanderbilt at Tennessee: Games are won with talent and emotion. Neither team has much talent but Vandy has emotion. Commodores, 24-20
Georgia Southern at Alabama: Just another day in paradise for the Crimson Tide: 39-7 Alabama
Miss. State vs. Arkansas (Little Rock): After watching Arkansas last week, they might beat State by thirty: 40-10
Samford at Auburn: This shouldn't be too close: Auburn, 35-10
Furman at Florida: Another cupcake for the Gators: Florida, 33-7
Kentucky at Georgia: This game shouldn't be close; two programs going in the opposite direction: Georgia, 34-10
LSU at Ole Miss: This one could get real ugly, LSU fans might take over the grove: Tigers, 99-3
Citadel at South Carolina: I like South Carolina's defense, they should be able to score enough to beat the Citadel by themselves. Gamecocks, 28-7
Vanderbilt at Tennessee: In all my life I have never picked a Vanderbilt victory over Tennessee. The Dores look like a team with some momentum, but I just can't see them beating Tennessee. Vols, 24-20

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Billy the Bunny (loop distro), Kate (Sandler) and I have been having various discusses among ourselves over the past few weeks on the nature of zines, what's changed over the past years, and the direction of where they might be going in the future.

Amanda Bynes Says She is "Looking Pudgy" in Self Pics
After coming onto Drake pretty aggressively via her Twitter account, Amanda Bynes hoped to entice the rapper in a few recent selfies she posted.
On Tuesday, the "Amanda Show" star Posted a trio of poorly-shot pics which all manage to obstruct her face with the flash, but highlight her cleavage.
Not too pleased with her appearance, the 26-year-old troubled actress tweeted, "Looking pudgy and I broke my nail #GirlProblems."
Making headlines all over, last week Ms. Bynes shamelessly posted, "I want @drake to murder my vagina." The Canadian rapper has yet to respond to her admiration.

Referring to a difficult personality, we say that He is a thick-skinned fellow. If you make this comment in a shop promoting skin-care items, you are probably to catch the interest of the alert salesman: Please go to counter numberso and soThe ground for cystic acne is asphyxiated skin (dry on surface, oily underneath) the thickened skin!

Best Of :: Food & Drink
When you're in Mulberry Street, do as others do: Order as many courses as you think you could possibly eat. Then, after you tuck into the first dish, order three more, making sure to drip whatever it is you're eating onto the menu. That way, diners who come in after you can follow in your knowledgeable, if greasy, thumbprints. The desire to sample a wide variety of the delicious fare is by far the biggest reason Angelo's has been launched into the "expensive" category. In other words, things tend to add up, especially if you ask for a bottle of the Ornellaia Super-Tuscan to drink with dinner. But in the end, the quality and value of the portions jibe so right with the Little Italy pedigree of the restaurant that chances are you'll remember the meal and "fuhgeddabout" the final bill.
For Indian food regulars who want to avoid those awkward moments of ordering beef curry from a Hindu waiter, the simple way is to go vegetarian. Bombay Cafe has powerfully tasty vegetarian dishes that'll make most carnivores forget about the lack of animal flesh. The chick peas in the chole-bhatura are cooked perfectly al dente in a potent tomato-based broth, and the plain uttapam combines the simplicity of a poster-sized rice pancake with aromatic lentil soup. Everything at this simple restaurant is made on-premises, even the yogurt, which flavors the sweet lassi so well, and the roti, an oven-roasted bread. Best of all, your vegetarian feast will set you back only about $5 -- not a bad price for a clear conscience.
Q: Ever watch reality-TV shows?
A: I watch absolutely no TV. I work every night.
Q: Never?
A: All right, Monday. My day off. On Monday, I have to watch Fear Factor because my 10-year-old daughter, Margeaux, insists on it. It's kind of fun to watch with her. She's always comparing herself to the girls on the show. She says, "I could do that."
Q: Are there parts of the show you don't like?
A: When they eat slugs and things like that. I'm not crazy about that.
Q: Is that the restaurateur talking?
A: Not really. That whole segment of the show -- I usually walk away from it. It'll definitely kill your appetite.
Q: How about your daughter?
A: She can stomach it a little better than I can.
Q: Is the show in any way real?
A: It's interesting to see what people will do for $50,000. Is that real? I don't know.
Q: Can you learn anything from Fear Factor?
A: Jeez, I don't think so. It's kind of like a strange sports game.
Q: What does your daughter get out of it?
A: Just the sensation of it, I think. She's very competitive, very athletic. A major soccer player and a junior lifeguard. I think the competition is what she enjoys, especially when the girls are competing against the guys. That's Margeaux.
If the name seems like a mouthful, well, the large servings of fresh fish and shellfish justify it. A retail seafood market on one side and an attractive, casual dining spot on the other, Waves isn't all foam and froth like some of its trendy contemporaries. Yet its preparations are still modern -- Asian shrimp-noodle soup, coconut shrimp, lump crab "fingers," shrimp scampi with roasted tomatoes. Feeling traditional? Waves also offers lobster dinners à la beach parties in Cape Cod, with a Maine steamed lobster, mussels, clams, ears of corn, and new red potatoes. Best of all, your belly may make you feel as if you won't be riding any waves too soon lest you get a cramp, and your wallet won't be much lighter -- Waves is as reasonably priced as it is filling.
It's no secret that Chinese takeout isn't always healthful. But there is hope. Wingloon's lengthy menu features all the traditional Chinese-American fare; sweet and sour chicken, moo goo gai pan, beef lo mein, among others. But this drive-through and takeout restaurant is looking out for today's health-conscious consumer. In addition to a vegetarian menu including broccoli and mushrooms with garlic sauce, and sautéed string beans, any of their chicken or beef dishes can be prepared with tofu, and they will omit salt, sugar, or cornstarch. You just have to ask.
Let's be honest. You're cheap, and you always will be. So you might as well put on the plaid pants and baby-blue blazer and go for the early-bird special at Spoto's. Between 5 and 6 p.m., the upscale raw bar in downtown West Palm Beach throws in a salad, dessert, and drink for the price of your entrée. That's a value of about $20, which, you might as well admit, is more than you spent on your mother's last birthday present. The deal includes a spicy tomato, mozzarella, and red onion salad with a well-aged vinaigrette. It's a good complement to the onion-crusted yellowtail snapper at $21.75. Or pair the house salad, with its wheat-beer vinaigrette, with the bouillabaisse, which includes a half-pound lobster, clams, mussels, and nearly still-swimming chunks of fish. Eat quick and you can be in bed by 8.

The missus bought some paint from SW. It is proclassic smooth enamel finish acrylic latex. They told her to paint the MDF doors with a purdy brush one stroke and it will be good. Not so. I tried rolling them and it is not working either. I do spray paint at work and we are thinking of buying an airless sprayer since we do not have a compressor at home. Should I take them to work and do it after hours? It is HOT here in Texas. Opinions please.
You could rent one for a day for about 60 or 70. The best to rent are Titans and Graco's. Good Luck

Cloverleaf Farm's homebred Bsharpsonata, winner of the Feb. 9 Forward Gal Stakes (gr. II) at Gulfstream Park, heads a field of six talented fillies in the $150,000 Davona Dale Stakes (gr. II) there March 1.
One of two graded stakes winners entered in the one-mile event, Bsharpsonata will face a stiff test as three of her contenders come into the race off strong performances. The other two have solid place efforts to their credit, but trainer Timonthy Salzman seems confident that his Pulpit filly – bred in Florida out of the Affirmed mare Apasionata Sonata – can continue a three-race winning streak built this winter.
After taking the 1 1/16-mile Selima Stakes at Laurel last November, Bsharpsonata won the Tropical Park Oaks in January before shortening back to the Forward Gal's seven-furlong distance. She earned that victory by a nose. Jockey Eric Camacho, aboard for the filly's past five starts, gets the mount again from the one hole.
Trainer Todd Pletcher has the likely favorite in Zabeel Racing International's Game Face. The daughter of Menifee, bred in Kentucky by Marilyn Seltzer out of the Gone West mare Galleon of Gold, was an impressive seven-length winner of the Jan. 12 Old Hat Stakes (gr. II) after breaking her maiden by 7 ¼-lengths last November. A $280,000 Ocala Breeders' Sales Company 2-year-olds in training purchase, Game Face stretches out to the one-mile distance for the first time. Her past wins were at a respective six and 6 ½-furlongs. Jockey John Velazquez will ride from post four.
Another filly tackling a mile for the first time is Mike Tarp's American County, winner of the Jan. 26 Sunshine Millions Oaks at Gulfstream. The Gibson Countyfilly has raced mostly at the six-furlong distance for trainer Dale Romans, and has only finished off the board in one start, recording a 3-3-3 record from 10 attempts. Bred in Florida by North Star Equine out of the Pentelicus mare Young American, she managed to show last July in Churchill's Debutante Stakes (gr. III), but has yet to earn a graded victory of her own. The filly will be ridden by Edgar Prado and drew post position number three.
Robbie's Gal, runner-up to American County last time out, will do her best to reverse that order in the Davona Dale. Bred in Florida by Catherine Hudson out of the Prospect Bay mare Flutterfree, owned by Robbies and Emmas Racing Stables, and trained by Stephen DiMauro, the otherwise solid Straight Manfilly was rebounding from an uncharacteristic 10th-place finish in the Tropical Park Oaks won by Bsharpsonata. Prior to that start, she scored a win in the GTOBA Debutante Stakes at Calder Dec. 2. Jockey Jorge Chavez is aboard on the outside.
The remaining two runners – Zayat Stable's J Z Warrior and Augustin Stable's Informed Decision – tangled last time out in a 6 ½-furlong allowance event at Gulfstream Feb. 2. J Z Warrior, a Harlan's Holiday filly bred in Kentucky by Gulf Coast Farms out of the Carson City mare Carson Jen, had taken the lead when John Velazquez inadvertently struck Informed Decision with his whip. J Z Warrior was disqualified and Informed Decision, a daughter of Monarchosbred in Kentucky by C. Kidder and N. Cole out of the His Majesty mare Palangana, was placed first. Informed Decision's maiden win came by a solid 6 ½-length score at Gulfstream Jan. 3, while J Z Warrior broke her maiden by 10 lengths at Saratoga last July.

I really am perplexed. I have had my 74 Cadillac for two months and the only thing not working is the power antenna. It makes a sound like it wants to work, but will not go down all the way inside the fender. I cleaned the engine and it went down further, but still not all the way. What...... And my clock does not work. Any advice? Thanks.

I'm an Indian from Delhi and I wear my hair curly!!
I was born with frizzy, curly, poofy hair but as most Indians do, I had my head shaved when I was around one I think. Then, my hair grew out soft and silky and straight, I have no idea why...it was like that until 1st grade when it became wavy and very thick. Well, there were like three waves and a flip at the bottom and it was very dense. Then at 5 th grade, it became magically silky straight again. Then, I joined a swim team and the chlorine damaged my hair and it turned verrry wavy and poofy(not really curly tho, and I'm not sure if chlorine caused this). Only last year, eighth grade, did my hair turn curly. It was always in a ponytail because I did not know how to manage it. Then this year I learned about the cg method and scrunching my hair and gel, etc. Now my hair looks beautiful and my Indian family agrees!! I just hope it doesnt decide to randomly change texture again lol

It is day 6 of our Moshi Monster series 11 countdown and today we introduce Benedict the Broken Booble. Panicky, disorganised, frazzled, this moshling sounds a lot like me!
Broken Boobles just about manage to hold themselves together because they are constantly cracking up. That's why these eggy Moshlings use colourful ribbons to prevent their fragile heads from falling to bits. Unfortunately their arms are so short they are forever asking passers-by to help tie their bows.
Broken Boobles hang out alongside Boiled Boffins in Yellow Middle Meadow, but they also enjoy chilling out in eggcups on Beaster Island.
They like to roll down hills down hills and were an immediate hit with my boys.

Forrester's Revised Cloud Taxonomy
Posted by Thomas Mendel on October 1, 2009
As promised, we've been very busy during the past few weeks revising Forrester's initial proposal of a cloud computing taxonomy. You can see the result below. What can you expect next? Right now, we are in the process of sizing today's cloud computing market, obviously based on our taxonomy. Next, we will develop two to three future scenarios and finally create a market forecast for these scenarios.
Keeping you posted; comments as always welcome.
Kind regards
Thomas Mendel
re: Forrester's Revised Cloud Taxonomy
Comment from Suresh Sambandam on Fri, 10/02/2009 - 04:01
Hi Thomas,Thanks for the updated cloud taxonomy. I like the earlier one which had 'Cloud OS' clearly marked out. But I guess that was 'Privacy vs Business Value' perspective and this brings about a new perspective.This new perspective also brings about new thought process. Thanks a lot.Suresh

Westminster report
Autumn Statement
The political seasons seem to extend themselves these days. We have become used to the Chancellor's Autumn Statement arriving in December.
The Statement itself was a particularly noisy affair. I know people have varying views on the question of 'Commons Noise' and to an extent lively banter across the Commons Chamber gives debate an energy and immediacy that polite silence would not. For example, there are times when there is genuine anger at proposals the 'other side' is coming up with, but the way in which Ed Balls was barracked when he replied to the Chancellor was, in my view unacceptable, not simply because he is of my party, but because it was a constant wall of noise. Some of my own colleagues do their share of shouting and heckling on such occasions, but generally it is a response to specific things being said. I found it difficult to hear what he was saying, even though I was sitting in the row behind the Shadow Chancellor.
Watching the TV reports later that evening I was struck by the grins and laughs of Cameron and Osborne. They had scant regard for the many people who are struggling with cuts in real wages and the millions still out of work (Unemployment is only a little lower than it was in 2010), not to mention those households hit by the bedroom tax.
(POST SCRIPT: PMQs was a particularly quiet one the first week back after Christmas, partly because it was overshadowed by the death that day of a very popular and well respected MP, Paul Goggins. But the verdict of the sketch writers, was 'boring'! – see Ann Treneman in The Times (paywall), and Michael White in the Guardian)
Nelson Mandela Tribute Debate
This took place on 9 December. Many, many MPs spoke, with some extremely good speeches, including those from Gordon Brown and Peter Hain. I didn't put into speak not least as we had a long session that afternoon at the Work & Pensions Select Committee with Iain Duncan Smith. Had I done so it would have been to recall that the Anti Apartheid movement was one of the earliest political movements of which I became aware. It is humbling to recall that it was nearly 25 years after my first wearing of the iconic badge, Mandela was released from prison and apartheid crumbled. A long road indeed.
Food Banks Debate
The last Opposition Day debate of the year was on foodbanks. Speakers on our side far exceeded the time available by some considerable margin. But I think we had hit a raw nerve for the Government by choosing this topic, as Tory attendance in the Chamber was well above average, and emotions were running high. Speakers on the Government side were anxious to refute the idea that the expansion of food bank use had anything to do with their policies. Citizens' Advice Scotland's evidence obtained from its bureaux shows that 73% of the referrals they make are benefit related.
Employment and Support Allowance
In December I kept up my work on Employment and Support Allowance – the main benefit for people who can't work due to an illness or disability. Regular readers will know I've been concerned for some time that the assessment process for ESA is flawed. Thousands of applicants, who clearly cannot work, are being declared fit to do so and as a consequence they are refused benefit.
Earlier this year two claimants – supported by a number of charities – took legal action, arguing that when people with mental health conditions apply for ESA, the Government should take responsibility for collecting supporting evidence from appropriate professionals, such as their GPs. The court ruled in their favour in June, but the Government subsequently appealed. On 4 December the Court of Appeal rejected the Government's arguments, and I posted my reaction on my website.
In a separate development I've become aware that the number of incorrect assessments could be far higher than previously thought, because the current figures appear to only count cases that go to formal appeal before a tribunal judge, not those resolved by civil servants. I wrote to the UK Statistics Authority about this just before Christmas, and you can my letter on my website.
Finally I released some comments following the publication of Government's latest independent review of the ESA assessment on 12 December.
Lobbying Bill
I have received a lot of correspondence from constituents on this Bill. After three years of no action on lobbying the Government brought forward a Bill just before the summer last year which paid no attention to the extensive criticisms summed up by the Political & Constitutional Reform Select Committee, and then tacked on proposals which will inhibit campaigning by voluntary organisations and charities. After rushing it through the Commons, the Government agreed to a 'pause' in the Lords for further 'consultation'. Considerable work was done by peers and representatives of the voluntary sector to suggest changes. Following this the Government made some concessions but not enough. The Bill suffered three defeats on amendments in the Lords, and these came back to us last week, with only four hours of debate allowed. The Minister spoke for 47 minutes of the two hours allowed on the amendment to the first part of the Bill!
Despite some Tory and LibDem MPs voting to support the Lords Amendments they were defeated. When that happens the Bill goes back to the Lords who vote again on whether to insist on their amendments. At this stage some cross bench peers in particular take the view that the elected chamber should prevail – and the Government got its way, after a tied vote in one case.
Whatever one thinks of the substance of this Bill, the process has been a lesson in how not to produce 'good' legislation.
Welfare Reform
January started with my Huffington Post article on the Government's flagship welfare reform Universal Credit. While I acknowledge that UC isn't a bad idea in principle, and that it could improve work incentives for some, any benefits won't be felt for years due to IT overspends and poor project management. Meanwhile another element of the project – the heightened conditionality and increased use of benefit sanctions – is already in place and negatively impacting many claimants. Universal Credit, in my view, is presently 'All Stick and No Carrot!'
It's also worth highlighting a speech I made on the 13th of January – you can read a transcript here – in a debate on the impact of welfare policy on poverty. It's often the same people who are affected by the Government's various changes, and despite all the hardship caused, the Treasury isn't making much in the way of savings.
East Coast
On 9 January I spoke in a debate on intercity rail investment, focussing on the Government's decision to privatise the intercity services on the East Coast Main Line. You can read my speech here and I produced a summary of my arguments for the think-tank Progress.
A week later the shortlist of bidders to take over the franchise in February 2015 was announced, and I circulated a press release which is available on my website.
High Speed Rail
On a related note I lead a 90 minute debate on High Speed Two in the Commons ante-chamber Westminster Hall. Focussing on the economic benefits of the project, I reminded colleagues the project will shave up to an hour off Edinburgh-London journey times, giving businesses in both cities a boost. Over 500 people who oppose the project emailed me in advance of the debate and thus had the opportunity to address their arguments on the day. It's worth noting that many of those who contacted me live along the proposed route, but I am very clear that MPs whose cities stand to benefit from the project will robustly endorse it. You can read a transcript of the debate on 14 January here and a joint press release I issued with Edinburgh North and Leith MP Mark Lazarowicz here.
Constituency Report
The Real Cost of Homelessness
Lack of affordable housing brings many people to my office and surgeries. The Scottish Government claims Scotland has the best homelessness legislation in Europe, but that's a hollow boast when there just aren't the homes for people to move into. In December I wrote an article on these issues which is available on my website.
Caltongate Disappointment
On Wednesday, permission was granted to redevelop the Caltongate site. This was the second such vote in as many weeks where developers were successful.
I agree that development at this site is much needed, but these plans have been waved through regardless of the fact it is within our World Heritage Site. Bland, square blocked offices and hotels with flat roofs (see above) will bear no likeness to the organic medieval architecture of the Canongate. Indeed the development could be any new build site, in any city across the country.
It is without a doubt that the Old Town thrived when permanent residents, who formed stable communities, made it a vibrant and prosperous place to live and work. But plans for just 185 apartments over a 5 acre site means that any population growth here will be minimal. There is a danger the Caltongate will become a bland haven for office workers and tourists staying at budget hotels. Any bursts of vitality and civic life will be shortlived these visitors head off home.
I'm very disappointed the community spent months contributing to the consultation process and lobbying elected members, their views have not been properly taken into account. It certainly seems current planning policies are failing to serve local communities.
The Shape of Things to Come
Last week a cross party group of MPs and MSPs met to be briefed by city planners for an update on the Local Development Plan. The Scottish Government recently rejected the view from the south east Scotland group of local authorities that the sites designated for housing should be phased rather than all done upfront. Granted, there is going to be a growth in housing demand over the next 15 to 20 years, but if too many sites are designated for housing now, there are concerns (shared by all elected members present) that developers will cherry pick the 'greenfield' sites, while 'brownfield' remains undeveloped. The Council remains committed to seeing outstanding brownfield sites (such as Craigmillar in this constituency) developed as soon as possible, but that may prove more difficult than we had hoped. I simply do not see why sites could not be designated on a rolling phased basis so that development can be properly planned.

Newcraighall Residents Feel Ignored
In January the Council's Development Management Sub-committee approved plans for developers to build 220 homes on greenfield land between Newcraighall and Gilberstoun. Needless to say the two communities, who have fought tirelessly against the plans, are devastated by the decision.
A former mining village, Newcraighall has just 150 households at present. Residents thought the matter was closed when permission for 160 homes was granted in 2012. However developers came back for more and succeeded in pushing up the number of houses at the site. David Hewitt of the Newcraighall Heritage and Community Association, and ward councillors Maureen Child and David Walker, made rousing speeches against the plans at a public hearing where the application was determined. My full report on the hearing is on my website.
Employment Plus Local
Just before Christmas I was invited to open the Salvation Army's 'Employment Plus Local' at East Adam Street. With staff on hand jobseekers, homeless or not, can get help to improve skills and meet the requirements to spend several hours a week 'job searching' which is demanded by Job Centres. E-learning courses are also available making use of the computers provided at the centre.
Green Homes Cashback pays off
A constituent recently received some much needed news which will see her family through the chilly winter months. Weeks after having to replace her boiler she found out grants from the Energy Saving Trust were available under the Green Homes Cashback scheme. The scheme offers grants for anyone looking to install a new boiler and insulation to improve the energy efficiency – regardless of your income, and whether you are an owner, tenant or landlord.
My constituent submitted her request after the installation had taken place and was refused at first. Being on Working Tax Credits she would have been eligible for a replacement boiler and increased insulation. However, I contacted the Trust which reconsidered her position and made a retrospective payment. The family now has a much warmer home and reduced heating bills – for free. Whether you receive benefits, work and get Tax Credits, or are a higher rate taxpayer, owner or tenant, head to www.energysavingtrust.org.uk to see what you are eligible for.
Council Finally Cracks Party Flats
Just last week the Council reported on the progress it has made in dealing with 'party flats'. Thanks to a great deal of hard work from Councillor Karen Doran and her colleagues, plus a legislative change at Holyrood thanks to the efforts of Sarah Boyack MSP, officials are now able to deal with this problem on two fronts: taking over problem flats under a 'Management Control Order' and requiring future party flat landlords to seek planning permission. Taking over as landlord for two flats the Council reported it was able cancel bookings for 'stag' and 'hen' parties, inspect the properties for Health and Safety concerns, and start to manage future rental more closely. The MCO was the first issued in Scotland and local residents agree there has been a real change. Properties in Holyrood Road, Lothian Road and Old Tolbooth Wynd, all in Edinburgh East, are also under investigation.
Carer Support Payments
Carers across our communities and around the UK do great work assisting loved ones, for little pay and without much recognition. It is one of my priorities to ensure that carers receive support to do that work. That's why I am pleased the City of Edinburgh Council has reopened its scheme to award one-off carer's support payments of £250 to those who provide unpaid care for a friend or relative who lives in Edinburgh.
If you are an unpaid carer, providing substantial and regular care for a partner, relative or friend who is over 16 and receives DLA (Care), PIP (Daily Living) or Attendance allowance you may be eligible and should head to www.edinburgh.gov.uk/carersupportpayment for further information. Funds are limited and you must apply by the end of February.

Technology and the Youngpreneur brought together members of Forbes 30 under 30 to address the issue of Millennials and how they are using technology to create innovative solutions to build businesses that consequently bridge the gap between poverty and prosperity.
The panel was made up of leading young business experts Rex Idaminabo of Achievers Media Group, Adebola Williams co founder Red, Mary Ojulari, CFO CNBC and Forbes Africa, Edose Ohen founder glazed doughnuts and Nkechi "Ink" Eze, editor Bella Naija weddings.
Founder of Aim Higher Africa and Forbes Africa correspondent Peace Hyde moderated the discussion. The panel highlighted that 2016 was the year that millennials need to think about how to use adaptive technology in creative ways to solve challenges. Financial literacy will be key in a dire economic climate and how millennials use tech savvy tools to mitigate the looming recession will also be crucial for survival.
Aim Higher Africa in recent years have been instrumental in empowering the youth to achieve their fullest potential. Check out some shots from the event below:

SLIDESHOW: The Barton Street P-Patch greets the change of season with light
Kate Farley, one of the prime organizers of the Barton Street P-Patch wants to start a new tradition. She started on Dec. 21, the shortest day and the longest night of the year, to light lumniaria in the garden. It's a way of announcing the return of the sun. From the Solstice on the days will get longer.
She and two friends came out to do the honors and light the votive candles in the lunch sacks and place them on the walls of the garden. Mary Ann Petrocelli, Allison Mountjoy, and Kate Farley poured sand in the bags and placed them atop the walls of the garden.
"It's a very healing thing and I did it to greet the season but in my mind were other reasons right now that people need healing."

text: Thanks Roscoe I think everyone outside South Beach and Shaq nation/bandwagoners would agree with Bill Ingram's assessment of how this series played out. He and Bill Simmons aren't afraid to call Stern and his cronies out. To bad the employees of ESPN/ABC and NBA TV will admit not the obvious. If they do they won't have a TV job next season...IMO they are as bad as the refs for ignoring it. They love Shaq and the new NBA darling Wade so much, they swallowed their tounges just like the refs in the first half when the mavs were driving to the basket.

As a newly admitted college student, studying in the United States is no doubt the most important decision you have ever made. You probably have numerous questions about life in the United States and at Florida Tech, ranging from what to bring with you, where to arrive, where to live if you are not required to live on campus, how to get around, the cost of living, etc.
In an attempt to assist our new students, the Office of International Student and Scholar Services insituted the Florida Tech Diplomat Program in the Fall of 2005. The program consists of "veteran" international students from several countries who have been through the process of arrival themselves. The diplomats afford the use of their time, knowledge and experience to help new international students transition into life in the United States.
Over the past two years, we have seen the Diplomat Program double in size—with 100 new international students benefiting from the guidance and mentoring of an international diplomat. Lifetime friendships have been formed, and the process of adapting to a new culture has been made that much easier for many new students.
We urge you to take advantage of this program, designed exclusively for you, our new international students. Our diplomats are ready and waiting to e-mail you and to answer your questions.
If you are interested in hearing from a diplomat, e-mail the following information to Debbie Matta, our Program Coordinator, at email@example.com no later than two weeks prior to your arrival:
- name
- graduate or undergraduate
- country of origin
- approximate date/time of entry and port of entry
You never know, you may just meet a lifelong friend before you even arrive on campus!!!!

With or without the berries and cream, these orange-zested rolled-up scones are classics. Try them with one of the marmalades in the spreads chapter.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease baking sheet and set aside.
In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Using a pastry blender, 2 knives, or your fingertips, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse cornmeal. In a small bowl, combine the egg and cream and add to the flour mixture. Mix until just blended together.
Turn out the batter onto a lightly floured board and knead for 1 minute. Roll dough into a rectangle approximately 4 inches by 8 inches.
Brush the dough with the melted butter. Sprinkle with the sugar and orange zest. Roll up, jelly-roll fashion, and seal the long seam by pinching it together lightly with your fingers.
Cut the roll into eight 1-inch-thick slices. Lay slices down sideways on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until scones are golden.
Slice the strawberries and place in a large pretty bowl with other whole berries, if available. Sprinkle with sugar and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours. To serve, heap spoonfuls of berries over each scone and top with freshly whipped cream.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – The Miami Hurricanes will open their regular season on the road this weekend with a Friday night showdown against eighth-ranked Florida and a Sunday afternoon matchup at No. 23 UCF.
Two seasons ago, the Hurricanes found themselves in a similar situation. Facing a ranked Gators squad in the 2012 opener for both teams, the Hurricanes traveled north and recorded a resounding 4-1 victory in front of a packed house at Pressly Stadium.
And though Friday's installment in the rivalry will be the first for second-year head coach Mary-Frances Monroe, her Hurricanes are looking for similar early-season momentum in what she expects to be a difficult environment.
"I think we're all really excited," Monroe said. "We've spent the last two weeks competing against each other, and I think the team is ready to finally play regular season matches against our challenging schedule."
In addition to an ever-challenging ACC slate, Miami has an eight-match nonconference schedule that includes four NCAA tournament teams from a season ago – with both the Gators and Knights included in that group.
The Hurricanes finished their nonconference schedule with a perfect 5-0 record in Monroe's first season at the helm last fall.
"I'm a big believer in, 'if you want to be the best, you have to play the best,'" Monroe said. "Why not open up with Florida? I think it's going to be a great challenge, a great test, and we'll see what we need to improve on and what we've done well in preseason training."
Miami concluded a successful preseason with a comprehensive 3-0 shutout of UNF on the road last Friday. The Hurricanes also knocked off USF 2-1 at Cobb Stadium earlier in August.
"It was great to have a home game and away game, so our younger players can understand the travel and get into the routine of that," Monroe said. "I think we saw some really good soccer, and we saw some things we needed to improve on."
Some of those youngsters impressed in the exhibitions, including a two-goal performance from freshman forward Grace Rapp in the win over the Ospreys. But a bigger challenge may fall on Miami's backline – including captains Shannon McCarthy and Maddie Simms - that will need to hold strong to contain 2013 Soccer America Freshman of the Year Savannah Jordan.
"I think we saw some really good soccer, and we saw some things we needed to improve on," Monroe said of the two exhibitions. "That's what we spent the last week working on – keeping our shape, putting people in different positions, seeing what's going to work. Now we're excited to get out there and compete."
Kickoff for Friday's opener is set for 7 p.m. on SECNetwork+ - available through the WatchESPN app (must be a subscriber to the SEC Network to view SECNetwork+). A free stream of Sunday's game against UCF (1 p.m.) will be available through Knights All-Access.
