Pawn in Frankincense (1969)
by Dorothy Dunnett
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This, I think, is the most breathless of all the books in this series. After the night at St Giles, Gabriel has disappeared, and Lymond in the guise of a French Ambassador starts to scour the Mediterranean for his child. Gabriel has left surprises and clues and traps all around the shore towns and cities, while he strives to become the Grand Master on Malta. We are introduced to Marthe, a woman who looks to be the twin of Lymond, and as the team breaks up and chases different clues, it becomes evident that there are two children being chased.
Philippa Somerville enters the seraglio at Topkapi to care for one of the boys; ostensibly beyond the reach of Gabriel as a Christian lord, but his treachery against the Knights of St John lands him a position of power in Suleiman's court.
The finale, a chess game is nail biting and brutally brilliant.
Not my favorite of all of the Lymond Chronicles.
When we last left Francis Crawford of Lymond in The Disorderly Knights the year was 1552 and Francis had just uncovered and defeated a spy within the ranks of the Knights of St. John of Malta, Graham "Gabriel" Malett. Francis also had fathered a son, Khaireddin. It's this son, hidden away somewhere within the Ottoman empire, that presents Lymond with his next challenge. For Khaireddin is being held as a political pawn in a very dangerous game. While Francis had defeated his enemy Graham, he also had to reluctantly let him go to ensure the safety of his missing son.
Some of Dunnett's best characters return for the plot of Pawn but it's the addition of Marthe that is intriguing. Marthe, a girl much like Francis in attitude and appearance adds sex appeal and a feisty fire to the plot. You later find out later she is his sister. Duh. Could have seen that coming. Another character I liked seeing return is Phillipa. She turns out to be a little spitfire herself.
Of course there are the intricate twists and turns you have come to expect from a Dunnett book. The chase across seas and deserts is pretty intense and as always, Dunnett does a fabulous job describing the people and places.
This fourth in the Lymond series takes us to northern Africa & Turkey at the height of the Ottomon empire, during the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent. I think the main reason I don't give this 5 stars is that I find the battle between Lymond and Gabriel using the children as pawns so emotionally difficult.
The first three volumes in the Lymond Chronicles were nice, but with this fourth one the series takes a big leap in quality to being very good indeed. Part of the reason for this is admittedly somewhat rather subjective: Most of the novel takes place in the Ottoman Empire, and I have always had a huge fondness for everything related to Arabian Nights – so everything set against that or a similar background gets a big advance bonus from me.
More importantly though, the series' hero Francis Lymond is considerably less annoying here than he was in the previous volumes – while I have never held with the view that a protagonist has to be likeable, Lymond's "tragically misunderstood" posturing was just teeth-grindingly irritating and rather clashed with his exhaustively stated brilliance. There is almost nothing of his former emo attitude left in Pawn in Frankincense, which might be due to the character experiencing some real tragedy – in any case, while still not exactly likeable (which he might not supposed to be anyway) he appears considerably more mature in this volume.
Dunnett evokes the atmosphere of Renaissance Ottoman Empire very vividly – her prose is both rich in historical information and saturated with sensual detail. The compelling, complex plot leads all the way from Switzerland to Constantinople, and another thing which distinguishes Pawn in Frankincense is that while in previous novels in the Lymond Chronicles it was always pretty obvious that no matter how bad things seemed to look for our hero, he was always following some secret master plan that would make him emerge victorious in the end, there is no such certainty in Pawn in Frankincense – this time, it is the bad guy who pulls all of the strings, and Lymond has to struggle to keep up with him, which does not always manage successfully. The final confrontation, while it appears somewhat contrived and not particularly plausible, has a huge emotional impact and I don't think anyone who read it is likely to ever forget it.

Pawn in Frankincense is the fourth in the legendary Lymond Chronicles. Somewhere within the bejeweled labyrinth of the Ottoman empire, a child is hidden. Now his father, Francis Crawford of Lymond, soldier of fortune and the exiled heir of Scottish nobility, is searching for him while ostensibly engaged on a mission to the Turkish Sultan. At stake is a pawn in a cutthroat game whose gambits include treason, enslavement, and murder. With a Foreword by the author.

Multnomah University prepares students for meaningful careers that serve Jesus whether they're called to traditional ministry or the marketplace.
Stay connected to our community and help the next generation of Christian leaders become agents of positive change, whether they're serving across the street or across an ocean.
The Norm and Muriel Cook Endowment Scholarship will provide more than $6,000 for mission trips this summer by Multnomah faculty, staff and students. The money will be divided to help teams and individuals travel around the globe and spread the love of Christ.
Dave Jongeward, associate academic dean, announced the recipients of the endowment during family chapel. "This endowment models the Cooks' passion for missions," he said. "We couldn't think of a better couple to model this scholarship."
Multnomah faculty members Dr. Strickland, Dr. and Mrs. Kopp, and Dr. and Mrs. Wecks will teach in Rwanda for three weeks. They will train pastors and teach classes at a Bible school. Dr. Harper will teach in the Czech Republic.
Gail Lundquist, administrative assistant for alumni relations, will teach English in Brazil for three weeks. Alison Gentry, assistant registrar, will be working in Slovenia.
Teams of students will perform ministry from Italy, to Papua New Guinea, Africa, Eastern Europe, South America and Alaska. One team will spend a month in Italy working at a church and in street ministry. They will perform dramas and build relationships in Italian cities.
The women's volleyball team will take their game to the people of Papua New Guinea, to work in sports ministry. The team recently held a Krispy Kreme fundraiser to help support the trip.
Individuals involved in missions also received funds. Steve Jouppe will spend two months working with street kids in Africa. Amanda Murphy will be teaching English in China and Jennifer Weinbender will help Northwest Medical Teams in Romania.
Each year, interest from the endowment is used to support these mission trips. The endowment currently has a principal of $138,884.09. The endowment is named after Norm and Muriel Cook, who spent 30 year with OC International, and the past 20 years serving as Multnomah professors. The scholarship began in 1999.

To understand all the info above, check out our Site Facts Glossary.
Grades have no direct impact on the overall score.
There are hot trannies all over the world, but I don't think anyone would argue with the notion that the trannies in Brazil are some of the hottest on the planet. Well, agree or disagree, you can judge for yourself on Brazilian Transsexuals. And you can do it at a discounted price as well!
Loads of Exclusive High Quality Content
We're talking over 3,000 videos and more than 3,000 photo sets and it's all exclusive. From the many solo scenes of hot trannies jerking off to the hardcore scenes featuring Tgirls sucking and fucking each other as well as getting it on with guys. And thankfully a lot of it is offering itself up in 720p HD videos and high-res photo sets.
Still Growing
The site is already big enough to keep you busy for quite a while - and they aren't slowing down. They look to be updating every 5-8 days, but the even better news is that each time they add about two to five new shemale scenes.
Other Good Stuff:
Some Issues With the Older Scenes
The first problem is that the older movies aren't HD. However, some of them look pretty good considering they're from the mid-2000s. Now, going back to the oldest ones from 2002, 2003, etc., those often look mediocre and they're often in parts with no full-length option. I even found a bunch of RealPlayer formats - yup, back then RP was a semi-popular format to use, unfortunately.
Minor Negatives:
A long-time tranny site that's still well worth checking out!
Brazilian Transsexuals has been around for more than a decade and they're still going strong! With multiple updates every week, loads of HD videos and high-res photo sets, and a nice mix of solo jerk-off scenes as well as hardcore ones, this is a pretty easy recommendation to make. And your TBP discount makes it an even sweeter deal (a savings of $16/month)!

Travelling by Indian railways always had its own charm and beauty. And over the years if you noticed you must have realized that the services and the facilities provided by the railways have increased manifold. Lot of these can be attributed because of severe competitions amongst the private operators in other sources of transport. This has kept the railways on the toes and they have come with lot of features.
One of the important services launched by the railways in the last decade or so was the availability of website. Indian railways launched lots of website which has been useful for all the masses for tickets booking, train checking and other things.
Fare Updates
With the site launch, all the details of railways are found at the comfort of our houses. And one thing that a frequent traveler generally looks out for is the Railway budget. Every February, when the railway minister takes the dais to share the railway budget, most of us wait with bated breath to find out the better things in the budget.
One of the key things which people generally are interested in hearing is the changes in the fare of trains, or introduction of new trains or any other new services in Indian railways. So most of the time, a commoner comes to know about the fare updates during the time of the budget in the newspapers or through television channels. For those who are generally not in touch with the outside world with regards to these things, Railways have their own site where they generally put up this information.Watch The Asian Connection (2016) Full Movie Online Streaming Online and Download
To know the real time fare, one can actually log into the Indian railways site namely www.indianrail.gov.in and refer to the quick link called the fare enquiry. On clicking on that link you are taken to a new page where in you will need to put in few details. Type in the train number, the day and month in which you are planning to travel, the source station code and the destination station code, the class, the age of the passenger and concession if any.
Once all the details are written and updated click on get fare. This will give you the exact pricing on that day of the year. The date needs to be specified as some initiatives may take place only after a stipulated period of time. The age of the passenger will determine the exact cost, for example a passenger with age less than 5 has no charge, and senior citizen is charged at a discounted rate.
Similarly even for concessions, they are lot of concession a civilian can avail of. Hence it is always better if we can check all these details before we go for a train booking. So as you see get updated information in Indian railways is a very easy task, you can use the similar procedure in IRCTC too to get an update on fare for travel. You just need to know how to navigate through the site. Navigation is also easy as most of the things are self explanatory.

Sometimes, when moving the mouse pointer from one unit to another, the indicator of the movement points on the sidebar looks strange. The bottom half of the numbers is that from the previous unit, the top half is from the current unit. Other times the bottom part of the numbers is invisible. See the attachment. The problem disappears when I actually click on a unit or move the mouse over an empty tile, even without clicking. It does not always happen, so I'm not really sure how to reproduce it. I am on Ubuntu 16.04. By the way, this also happened on Wesnoth 1.13.5.
Now that I have looked better, I see that also the side number is not visible and there are some dots on the right of the flag in the sidebar. There appears to be some overlap between the different information in the sidebar. This appears to be solved if I switch to fullscreen mode.

If the tips must appear in boxes, could there be a slight delay in the pop-up box?

text: BOSTON, June 8, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mueller Co., North America's largest and only full-line supplier of potable water distribution products, has introduced a new remote pressure monitoring system for water distribution networks as part of its Intelligent Water Technology™ (IWT) portfolio of products and services that actively diagnose, monitor and control the delivery of safe, clean drinking water to consumers and businesses. Mueller Co. is a subsidiary of Mueller Water Products, Inc. (NYSE:MWA), a leading North American manufacturer and marketer of products and services that are used in the transmission, distribution and measurement of water. The sensor, typically installed one per district metering area or neighborhood, reports pressure data at customer-defined intervals via a low cost machine-to-machine cellular based service or a Mueller advanced metering infrastructure network. Information is collected and analyzed on a Mueller-hosted or a customer secured web server. The new monitoring system is designed to be simple to install and operate. The pressure sensor is attached to the water system and plugged into a communication module. Users access a secure web portal and view their pressure data. The ESRI map interface can be viewed with any web browser and alerts are transmitted via SMS and/or email when the customers' settings for low- and high-pressure conditions are reached. "Mueller's IWT portfolio delivers information that enables water authorities to make smart decisions concerning their existing water infrastructure and effectively plan for the future," said Greg Rogowski, president of Mueller Co. "Data-driven decisions can help water authorities reduce non-revenue water and optimize infrastructure investments from main to meter. The IWT portfolio also provides consumers and businesses water conservation tools to make smart decisions about their consumption." Beginning with pressure monitoring, Mueller has created a communications backbone that utilities can integrate into existing SCADA systems or use as a stand-alone monitoring platform.

Looking through the Gospel lessons for the season going into Year A, I knew the Gospel's would be the way to go. After all, while all years of the Lectionary justifiably spend time with Mother Mary, year A is the only one to truly spend time with Joseph, Jesus' adopted earthly father.
To break down and explain the plan for each Sunday, I've included the scripture chosen, key verse from that scripture, and key words and key themes to aid in hymn selection and sermon preparations. As a nerd for the church year, I'm not too crazy about including Christmas hymns at the start of the season. I think it's okay to build those in as we lead to Christmas Eve, but it's important to note that this is a season of anticipation as we spend a lot of time with prophecy from Christ and John the Baptist. So, when it comes to building up the Christmas theme - pace yourself. Remember, Advent is a season of past and future collision in the present ... A time of already here (as in Christ did come and is here) and not yet (Christ will come again. If you focus on Christmas too early, you miss the point of the season.
To aid in worship, I've also included a Call to Worship, Candle Lighting Liturgy, and Prayer of Confession for each appropriate Sunday. At our church, we'll have a family light the candle and a liturgist follow that with the Call to Worship.
Feel free to use any and all resources. If you do use them in worship, please leave a comment!
Series Plan: Advent through Epiphany Sunday
"Hope is On the Way"
Overall Themes: Watchfulness, Looking backwards and forwards in time (at the same time), joyful repentance, trust, hope
December 1: "Managing Un-expectations" Matthew 24:36-44
Key words: prophecy (Jesus prophesies his own arrival!!), watchfulness, readiness
Possible Theme: Jesus, close to the end of his earthly life, prophesies another beginning. Jesus, the Messiah, tells the people to watch out for the Messiah. Jesus goes meta.
Lighting the Candle of Expectation
It was Jesus Christ himself that told us to be ready at any time.
So, today we remember that call. The call to look for God in unexpected places, at unexpected times.
And even though we wait, we can expect Our Savior to show.
This morning, we light the Candle of Expectation.
Let this fire remind us that while we wait for the Lord, truly the Lord is already here.
Hope is here. Love is here. Family, is here.
Call to Worship
We gather this morning as a people waiting for the Lord.
The one who died, rose, and will come again.
Yes, this is the truth, and the great mystery of our faith!
Yes! Lord Jesus, come into our hearts again this Advent Season!
Call to Confession
Everlasting God, we confess that we haven't been watching. We haven't been looking out for you. Like a thief in the night, you could pass us by and we would never know. We have forgotten to look for you in the faces of our children, of the homeless around us, in the immigrants who struggle as they serve even us. Forgive us, we pray, and make us ready to greet you in everyone we see on the street as we leave this place. Amen.
December 8: "We Work While We Wait" Matthew 3:1-12Key verse: Matt 3:2 - "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near."
Key words: Promise, strength, hope, readiness, repentance
Possible Theme: We journey backwards to before Jesus' baptism, to John the Baptist prophesying the Messiah's coming – a Messiah already here. Now is the time to get right with God.
Lighting the Candle of Prophecy
John the called on God's people to repent, for the Messiah was near.
The people had prayed for it, yet they didn't see the one they had been waiting for was truly among them.
That prophecy was being fulfilled in their midst.
This morning, we light the Candle of Prophecy
Let this fire remind us that while we wait for the Lord, truly the Lord is already here.
Hope is here. Love is here. Family, is here.
Call to Worship
Today we to turn to God.
Lord, have mercy on us!
The Kingdom of Heaven is near.
Lord, help us to spread the good news!
Call to Confession
Merciful God, though your prophets still call out to us, millennia later, we still don't change our lives. As John the Baptist shouts to the people, "Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven as come near!", we know that you are here, and still we don't change. Still we don't hear the cries of the needy, still we don't prioritize serving the poor, and still we refuse to meet the needs of those who are truly hungry and thirsty around us. And yet, merciful God, you still count on us to carry out your mission, you still encourage us to follow you, you still are near. Help us, Lord, as we seek your way. Amen.
December 15: "Hope in the King" Matthew 11:2-11Key verse: Matt 11:3 - [John in prison asks] "Are you the one who is to come, or are we to wait for another?"
Key words: Joyful repentance, fulfillment, hope
Possible Theme: The ministry of John the Baptist is validated in Christ. The hopes in John's heart are fulfilled in the statements of Jesus, the one the world had been waiting for – who was, who is, who is to come.
Lighting the Candle of Hope
Even John the Baptist asked Jesus, "Are you the one we've been waiting for?"
All of the hopes and dreams of God's children were wrapped up in that question.
And the answer was, yes, the Hope of the Nations was there, and is here.
This morning, we light the Candle of Hope.
Let this fire remind us that while we wait for the Lord, truly the Lord is already here.
Hope is here. Love is here. Family, is here.
Call to Worship
Together, let us be a people unafraid to hope!
Christ comes to us in the unexpected!
Let us keep the faith together – that Christ will come again.
Lord, keep us on the straight and narrow path that leads to you!
Call to Confession
Our Lord and Our Hope, we know that we often fail you. We forget to watch. We forget to wait. We make the holiday season more about ourselves than sharing the hope that only you can bring. We get so caught up in what we're supposed to get this season, we forget what we're called to give. Help us to remember that this season is about the message and ministry of your son, Jesus Christ, the one who came to heal, liberate, and share the good news of your faithful love. Call us to be faithful only to you this season. Amen.
December 22: "A Surprise Adoption" Matthew 1:18-25Key Verse: Matt 1:20 - "But just when he had resolved to do this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit."
Key words: Trust, Faith, Christmas
Possible Theme: What about Joseph? Here we have the rarer-read birth narrative from Matthew, focused on the choices of Jesus' earthly father, Joseph. What can his awkward circumstance tell us about keeping the faith?
Lighting the Candle of Joy
As we wait for Emmanuel, God with us to arrive, we remember the fears of his earthly parents.
We remember the commitment of Joseph, we remember the commitment of Mary.
We remember that the Lord sent angels to comfort and to guide – with joy.
In that spirit of joy, of expectation and hope, we light the Candle of Joy.
Let this fire remind us that while we wait for the Lord, truly the Lord is already here.
Hope is here. Love is here. Family, is here.
Call to Worship
With joy we call Emmanuel down to meet with us this morning!
Christ be with us!
Through the birth of Christ, we know God's love for us.
Thanks be to God!
Call to Confession
God of our salvation and author of our hope, it's hard for us to see the blessings you have for us. We think that our plans are better, that the things and desires of the world are higher than your ways. You, Lord, are the great interrupter and sometimes we can feel inconvenienced by the calls you put on us to seek justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with you. Remind us that this season that leads to Christmas wouldn't be here at all if it weren't for you loving this world that you made. Thank you for loving us, God. Amen.
December 24: "Hope Has Arrived" Luke 2:1-20Key verse: Luke 2:10-11 - "But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for see--I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is the Messiah, the Lord."
Key words: Christmas, watchfulness, peace, love, hope, joy
Possible Theme: The shepherds were awake to receive the good news, while the rest of the world was asleep.
Lighting the Christ Candle
With this lighting of the Christ Candle we rejoice with prophets, angels, and Mary and Joseph in welcoming Christ!
Our hope has arrived!
Thank you God, for sending us your Son.
May this light remind us of the hope we all carry because you love the whole world!
December 29: "We Are Family" Hebrews 2:10-18Key verse: 2:17 - "Therefore he had to become like his brothers and sisters in every respect, so that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make a sacrifice of atonement for the sins of the people."
Key words: Family, Christmas
Possible Theme: In Paul's writings, he looks at Christ's life, Christ who called us brother and sister with him as we are children of the Father. Christ our teacher, also called us family.
Call to Worship
Through the birth of Christ …
… God stands with us.
Through the raising of Christ by Mary and Joseph …
… God shows faith in us.
We are all family in Christ, and with Christ.
Thanks be to God, for this amazing news!
January 5 [Epiphany Sunday] "What gift did God bring?" John 1:1-18Key verse: John 1:16 - From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.
Key words: Giving, New Year, Beginnings
Possible Theme: Since the beginning of all things, God has been giving to us. And God hasn't stopped giving to us. So what do we do with that?
Call to Worship
The Word of God has been with us from the start!
Praise the Lord!
The Word of God is with us even now!
Praise the Lord!
May the Lord's grace and peace be with us in the start of this New Year!

Sachs & Co. recently released the results of their latest survey of CIOs
which showed that enterprise IT is contracting spending a bit and that cloud
computing is at the very bottom of their priority list. This shouldn't come as
a surprise to anyone, nor should it be seen as a needle inserted into the cloud
computing hype balloon because CIOs
aren't the target market for clouds. Like other disruptive innovations in
the technology space, such as cloud
collaboration, software
as a service (SaaS) and the
iPhone, cloud computing targets the tech savvy business developer, startup
and interactive marketer. These business innovators don't take their technology
cues from the corporate standards set by infrastructure & operations

As predicted
by Forrester, New
CEO Paul Maritz announced this week that VMware will drop the price of ESXi (their base server
hypervisor) to $0 (from $495).
This obviously comes in response to Microsoft Hyper-V
pricing ($28 per server) and as competition to the free open source Xen
Support is not included with the free ESXi; if you want that
it starts at $495/server
per year.

IBM's PR engine has been ratcheting up the volume about its efforts in cloud computing lately and if you are like me, I found their press releases confusing, so I got them on the phone to try and get past the hype to better understand what they are really doing in this space. Turns out they have turned on a powerful listening and learning engine.
IBM's BlueCloud initiative isn't (at least not initially) an attempt to become a cloud services provider or to become a cloud computing platform, but rather to help their customers experiment with, try out, and custom design cloud solutions to fit their needs. Building off the IBM Innovation Center concept, IBM is providing Cloud centers that are places customers from enterprise and government accounts, as well as non-IBM customers can test out cloud computing concepts, mostly for deployment internal to their own data centers. Gerrit Huizenga, the technical solutions architect for BlueCloud for IBM's Systems & Technology Group (STG) said these efforts are helping them build out a series of cloud blueprints, or proven/standardized cloud infrastructures. "Our goal is to deliver solutions that make it much easier to deploy and manage these things," Huizenga said.

Over the past few months a flurry of announcements have begun swirling around the cloud computing space, which remains a nascent market in the overall IT realm. Do these announcements portend a fast maturity for the concept or just the typical "me too" that comes with a hyped market?
In June, RightScale, a cloud management software and consulting company that has become a bit of a poster child as a cloud integrator, announced a partnership with GigaSpaces that integrates their eXtreme Application Platform (XAP) clustering and cache solution with the RightScale automated cloud management platform for Amazon EC2 clients. The value of this partnership comes from the fact that EC2 simply provides you with a VM you can populate but no availability or scalability services. XAP is a cluster architecture that delivers these values and can be quickly and easily deployed via the RightScale tool.
Next came Elastra, a San Francisco startup building a Cloud Server, a middleware layer that turns a commodity infrastructure into a cloud (similar value to what 3Tera provides today). The first iteration deploys similarly to XAP -- as a software layer you load into EC2 VMs, that enables scale and availability to the apps you lay on top of it.

This episode (25th July 2012) begins with Aarti requesting buaji to tell the truth to Yash that she (buaji) has changed Ansh's speech.
Buaji taunts Aarti by calling her a widow and asks her not to call Yash's family is hers. Buaji says to Aarti she (Buaji) could not remarry when she was a widow. Buaji also points out to Aarti that Aarti is lucky enough to get remarried to Yash and able to enjoy married life which Buaji was not able to.
Aarti feels sad for buaji's colorless life and consoles herself by thinking that the whole family still loves her. But Buaji still refuses to accept Aarti.
Yash enters when Buaji and Aarti are talking. Aarti tells a lie to Yash that buaji is telling her about she (Aarti) did not do right to hide Ansh's speech. Yash suggests Aarti to make the kids ready for the competition.
Prateek balmes Paridhi to have an extramarital affair. Pridhi clears Prateek's doubts by telling him that the man was a TV producer who wants to offer her a TV show.
Yash and Aarti convince Palak and Ansh for taking part in the debate competition.

Overall Experience
Awesome Hotel!
23 June 2017
Despite a couple of minor issues, my hotel stay was an overall excellent experience! The location is perfect for guests who are planning a majority of activities for the downtown area. The hotel's social hour is AMAZING!!! and the free breakfast buffet is convenient for large families!!!
First choice
21 June 2017
One of the first IHG hotels that we check for room availability while staying in San Antonio. The rooms are always clean and the hotel staff are second to none.
Wonderful hotel
21 June 2017
I am so happy that we found this hotel. From check in until we left this place was great. The front desk staff were all super friendly and helpful. We came to town for the Metallica concert and the fact that we were able to walk to the Alamodome in just a few minutes from the hotel was great. The rooms were very clean and spacious. The beds are very comfortable and we slept great. The shower was great, awesome water pressure, good quality towels as well. Nice kitchen area with dishes provided was a great surprise considering most places only offer a mini fridge and microwave. I absolutely LOVED the free laundry room services, that was a big plus for me. The fitness room was well equipped with free weights, treadmill and elliptical machines and a combo weight station for doing a variety of exercises. It was an all around pleasure staying here and if we ever make it back we will stay here again. It's also very close to tourist attractions and great restaurants.
Great stay

Just a great place to stay, great view and cleanliness

Preview: IceCaps, Sharks collide in three-game series Posted by IceCaps on
PUCK DROP: 7:30 PM NT | WATCH: AHL Live | LISTEN: stjohnsicecaps.com, 930 AM
The St. John's IceCaps resume their five game homestand as the division rival Worcester Sharks descend upon Mile One Centre for a trio of games starting on Wednesday, Nov. 13 and continuing into the weekend on Friday, Nov. 15 and Saturday, Nov. 16.
The IceCaps kicked off their homestand last Friday night against the first-place Manchester Monarchs and handed the L.A. Kings' affiliate just their second regulation loss of the season. Eric O'Dell recorded a goal and two assists, Kael Mouillierat notched a goal and an assist and Julian Melchiori added two helpers as the IceCaps downed the Monarchs 5-2.
On Saturday night, the Monarchs sought their revenge. With 14.2 seconds remaining on the clock, Brian O'Neill scored on a shorthanded breakaway to steal a 3-2 victory over the IceCaps.
The Sharks enter the three-game set having lost three straight games. The team's last win was a 3-0 victory over St. John's on Saturday, Nov. 2 at the DCU Center in Worcester, Mass. Troy Grosenick made 27 saves and the Sharks got goals from Curt Gogol, Sena Acolatse and Daniil Tarasov en route to victory.
IceCaps centre Eric O'Dell, fresh off his five-point weekend against the Monarchs, enters the game as the IceCaps top scorer. His seven goals and nine assists are good for 16 points in his first 14 games, placing him in a tie for tenth in league scoring.
Sharks' right wing Daniil Tarasov, who scored the game-winning goal against the IceCaps on Nov. 2, is Worcester's leading scorer with six goals and five assists for 11 points in nine games played.
IceCaps' goaltender Eddie Pasquale enters the series with a record of six wins and six losses and a 2.43 GAA and a 0.924 SV%. His 12 starts are the second-most in the league behind Manchester's Martin Jones, who has started 13 games this season.
Sharks starting goaltender Harri Sateri has recorded one win in seven starts and has a 3.89 GAA and a 0.848 SV%.
NOTES FROM LAST GAME: IceCaps centre Patrice Cormier scored his first goal of the season with just over five minutes left in the first period before Andy Andreoff tied the game just under two minutes left in the first. Manchester grabbed the lead with just under five minutes to play in the second period with a goal from Hunter Bishop. Kael Mouillierat tied the game 4:10 into the final frame before Brian O'Neill scored on a shorthanded breakaway with just 14.2 seconds remaining to seal the victory for the Monarchs. The IceCaps finished the game 2-for-5 with the man advantage, while the Monarchs scored one power-play goal on two opportunities. Eddie Pasquale stopped 31 of the 34 shots he faced in recording his sixth loss of the season. Monarchs goaltender Martin Jones made 31 saves to record his ninth win of the season.
PREVIOUS MATCHUPS: The Sharks and IceCaps have met just once this season, a 3-0 victory for the Sharks on home ice at the DCU Center in Worcester on Nov. 2. The Sharks and the IceCaps met four times last season with each team winning two games. The Sharks won both games in St. John's with Daniil Tarasov scoring the game-winning goal in both games on Feb. 5 and 6, 2013. Both of the IceCaps' victories over the Sharks last season were decided in overtime, a 3-2 victory on Nov. 3, 2012 and a 5-4 decision on Mar. 30, 2013. Eddie Pasquale played three games against the Sharks last season, winning just once and posting a 3.70 GAA and a 0.890 SV%. Harri Sateri played well against the IceCaps last season, winning two of his four games played with a 1.62 GAA and a 0.941 SV%.
HEAD-TO-HEAD LEADERS (returning players with 2012-13 stats):
STJ: Jason Jaffray 4 PTS (2G, 2A) | John Albert 2 PTS (1G, 1A) | Eddie Pasquale (1-2-0 3.70 GAA)
WOR: Bracken Kearns 7 PTS (4G, 3A) | Daniil Tarasov 6 PTS (3G, 3A) | Harri Sateri (2-1-0, 1.62 GAA)
NOTABLES: Dating back to last season, Sharks forward Daniil Tarasov has three game-winning goals against the IceCaps… The IceCaps set franchise records for penalty minutes (55) and combined penalty minutes (125) in their last meeting with the Sharks at Mile One on Feb. 6, 2013, a 4-0 win for Worcester… Sharks F Matt Pelech has been suspended for two games following an illegal check to the head of an opponent in a game Nov. 9 vs. Providence. Pelech will miss games Wednesday and Friday vs. St. John's.
INJURY UPDATE: Josh Lunden (undisclosed)
TRANSACTIONS: NOV 3: WPG recalls D Zach Redmond, returns D Julian Melchiori and D Ben Chiarot to STJ; STJ releases F Ian O'Connor from PTO

A less formal espalier
For an organic-looking arrangement like this, allow a plant to grow freely for most of a season. Then prune it to achieve a pleasing shape and position eyehooks or other attachments at critical points. For espalier created this way, you may choose to attach branches to separate eyehooks rather than running wire between eyehooks.

Vinaceous Raconteur Cabernet Sauvignon 2009
Cabernet Sauvignon from Australia
Currently Unavailable $15.99
Try the 2014 Vintage 1499
Winemaker Notes
The Raconteur 'breaks the mold' for Barossa Cabernet; lush, rich and deep purple in colour with bright hues, the aroma leaps from the glass with violets and black berry and mocha notes. Not unlike a Rorschach Image, people will see different flavours across the palate; some will find ripe fleshy black currants and cassis, others will find crunchy sour cherries; but both complement the overall palate with intensity, weight, structure and texture. Along with lip-smacking tannins and fine oak nuances, the 2009 Raconteur can... View More
Critical Acclaim
A truly weird interstate collaboration by Elena Brooks (Dandelion Wines) in SA who sourced and made the wine and Mike Kerrigan (West Cape Howe) in Mount Barker who put the final touches on. A lot of logistical effort for 800 dozen bottles at $25 each, but remember gift horses, and the wine does have attractive cassis-accented cabernet fruit; good structure.

Don't let fears squelch summertime fun
By Darcy Lewis
July is vacation season, but parental fears, both real and imagined, never take a break. If anything, worries multiply when warm weather sends children outdoors. Here's the scoop on some new and some old summertime health concerns.
Monkeypox virus It's a new disease and it's from Africa. It may be serious, but it's too early to know if the hype and headlines are warranted.
"I think it's something that's new so it needs to be taken seriously," says William Paul, the deputy commissioner at the Chicago Department of Public Health. "We want to contain it so it doesn't become established in any sort of wildlife or domestic animals here in the U.S.," he says.
Monkeypox is similar to West Nile virus, both were recently introduced to the Western Hemisphere. West Nile took hold quickly, so health officials are acting aggressively to make sure monkeypox does not gain a foothold.
Children are not very vulnerable to West Nile, but they can contract the monkeypox virus. Paul says it appears that only kids in contact with ill prairie dogs are at risk. Officials believe Gambian rats at a Villa Park pet store infected the prairie dogs, which then passed the virus to humans.
Monkeypox isn't typically fatal in humans, but can cause fever, chills and rashes. The incubation period is about 12 days. Monkeypox "has some similarity to smallpox but it's milder and less contagious," Paul says. All cases thus far have occured in people who have had close contact with infected prairie dogs, he says.
Falls from windows This is not just an urban high-rise problem. "Window falls happen throughout the city and suburbs," says Dr. Karen Sheehan, an emergency physician at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago. "People who don't live in high-rises feel it can't happen to their kids, but our data show most falls occur in two- and three-flat homes."
The risk of children falling from a window is two times greater than contracting leukemia and five times greater than developing a brain tumor.
Sheehan says there are about 100 falls in Illinois each year, about half of which occur in Chicago. While there aren't many fatalities, about 30 percent suffer traumatic brain injuries.
Here's what you can do: • Install inexpensive sash stops (found in home-improvement stores) to prevent window opening more than 4 inches.
• Install removable window guards (about $25). Window screens will not keep kids from falling. "They keep bugs out, not kids in," says Sheehan.
• Move furniture away from windows. "We've had many kids who bounced on the bed, then fell straight through the window," says Sheehan.
Dog bites Man's best friend bites more than 2.8 million children a year, according to the Schaumburg-based American Veterinary Medical Association. Most bites can be prevented if parents supervise children closely and teach safe behaviors, says the association's Sharon Granskog.
Most parents are careful watching their children around unfamiliar dogs, but are less likely to do so around the family pet, she notes. But a a huge percentage of dog bites are from the family dog.
Also, Granskog warns parents never to leave a baby or young child alone with any dog—-even their own—until they know that the child won't provoke the dog, either intentionally or unintentionally. For many children, this might be in early elementary school, she says.
Granskog recommends all children be taught: • Never approach an unfamiliar dog. If it approaches you, stand still as a statue. If you run from a dog, that activates its hunting instincts.
• Never stare at a dog or disturb it while eating, sleeping or caring for puppies.
• If a dog is about to attack, put something such as a backpack or bicycle, between you and the dog.
• If a dog knocks you over, stop and drop into a ball. Cover your face and lie still.
If a bite occurs, wash the area with soap and water and seek medical attention, even if the bite doesn't seem serious. Don't hesitate to request treatment from a plastic surgeon if you are concerned about scarring. Finally, report the bite to local police—they may refer you to the health department or animal-control agency.
As Sheehan says, "There are many unpreventable dangers out there, so it just makes sense to prevent the ones you can."

Glad you're alright, when I was younger (think I was 12?) I took a .22 to the foot. It was an old lever action, I was going through some brush and was using the barrel to hold vegetation back while I got through a particularly rough thick spot. I had the rifle on half cock, but what I didn't know was it was busted, so engaging the trigger would still cause the hammer to fall. I stumble, stupid me has the finger on the trigger and well, now I've got a decent scar.
I learned a few things that day, always keep your finger off the trigger until you're ready to shoot (I was told that, but I thought I was good enough to ignore sound advice...) and never assume a firearm's safety device is functional. Also getting shot hurts like a *****.
Hope your surgery goes ok, and you'll take away a solid lesson. Glad you're otherwise alright.
Sorry about your thumb. Sandwiches are hard to eat, buttons kick your butt and zippers are just best ignored until it heals up. I had to have my right thumb re-attached about 18 months ago. Just now getting confident with thumb safety on handguns.
On the up side. I had go to the plastic surgon every week. I was the only patient not showing off my new boob job.

Smooth move.
Having been shot in my hand before (no, I didn't shoot myself) the worst part is recovering from the surgery.

Your sharing helps all remember how easy it can happen.

Sorry to hear that.. Sounds like you are lucky you didn't get hurt worse or hurt someone else. Anything that attaches inside the trigger guard touching a trigger isn't usually a good idea.
There is something about firing 4,200 thirty millimeter rounds/min that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Yikes! What did it feel like?
Saw the surgeon today. Basically, the damage is done. There is nothing they can do to improve the structure of the thumb. The bone is broke but again, nothing can be done. Infection (bone) is our biggest worry. It'll heal with time. The nail bed is FUBAR. The nail is not going to grow back uniform or smooth. Just got to keep it clean and pray like hell it does not get infected. As far as the pain. It really did not hurt that bad. They numbed the nerves in the ER to remove the nail, clean and stitch. It was throbbing pretty good but I got a shot of morphine. It eased right off. Came home with a prescription of Lortab. I took one the first night. Otherwise, it's been 600-800 mg of ibuprofen. The embarrassment is worse than the pain. Plenty of redneck jokes around the office today. Thanks for all the well words.
Ok guys if you insist all I can really say is there was a gun battle. Everything is real hush hush, the FBI told me not to talk about it until they get the rest of the militia rounded up.....
Hope you heal fast
You're lucky it wasn't a .45 killer self-defense uber-expanding defensive round. Might not be around to talk about it :) Just kidding, here's to a speedy recovery.

The Península de Setúbal (English: Setúbal Peninsula) is a NUTS III subdivision of Portuguese region of Lisbon (NUTS II). Comprising several municipalities and urban centres, the subregion's capital is Setúbal, and includes several cities including Almada and Setúbal.
The region of Setúbal was a pioneer in the development of a regional strategic plan to assist the growth of the economic, social and cultural institutions.[2] The Plano Integrado para o Desenvolvimento para o Distrito de Setúbal (PIDDS) which was elaborated in the 1980s by the Associação de Municípios do Distrito de Setúbal (Association of Municipalities of the District of Setúbal), constituted the first development plan for the district, and envisioned a series of measures that were essential for the ambitious plans of its inhabitants.[2]
In 2000, under the initiatives of the Association of Municipalities (today AMRS), established a formal Strategic Plan for Development (Plano Estratégico para o Desenvolvimento da Península de Setúbal), or PEDEPES, with the slogan Mais Desenvolvimento, melhor Futuro (More development, better future).[2] A formal presentation occurred in December 2004, resulting from diagonistic phases and objectives, that presented 132 concrete measures based on the Strategic Plan.[2] The development of the PEDEPES involved the participation and consensus of 239 entities in and the Strategic plan continues to be a fundamental instrument in the regional intervention process.[2]
The subregion of the Peninsula of Setúbal comprises nine municipalities extending from the southern margin and mouth of the Tagus into the interior, and southern coast. They include:
Urban centres[edit]
Although the cities of Portugal have no political stature, for social and economic purposes they form as distinct centres of urban activity. The region of the Peninsula of Setúbal include several large centres, including the cities of Almada, Setúbal, Amora, Barreiro, Seixal, Montijo and Costa da Caparica, in addition to the larger towns of Sesimbra, Moita, Palmela, Alcochete, Corroios, Pinhal Novo, Monte da Caparica, Charneca da Caparica, Trafaria, Lavradio and Baixa da Banheira.
