Connecticut Couple Arrested For Allegedly Using Shock Collar On Child
(Lauren Evans) A Connecticut couple had to learn the hard way that though strapping a shock collar around a 9-year-old child's neck may seem like an effective disciplinary tool, it's actually illegal!
Eduardo and Paula Montanez were arrested Tuesday after authorities discovered the pair had allegedly used a PetSafe shock collar—intended to train dogs not to bark—on a young girl as punishment for an unsatisfactory report card. Authorities told NBC NewYork that Eduardo Montanez "put the bark collar around her neck and forced her to bark so the collar would shock her." It's unclear whether the girl is their daughter—the child was reportedly "in the couple's care."

|ontario consumers
Toronto, Ontario (rushPRnews) 05/02/13 — Ontario Consumers Home Services (OCHS), a leading provider of water heater and furnace rentals across Ontario, welcomes new measures introduced by the Ministry of Consumer Services to safeguard Ontario homeowners against fraud.
It is common practice for door-to-door salesmen to arrive unannounced and pitch water heater sales and furnace rentals, and Ontario homeowners are being victimized by misleading sales tactics. Several homeowners across the province, who have been convinced of switching their existing services or products, allege they have been victimized by double billing, claiming they have received monthly bills from both their existing provider and the agency responsible for replacing the equipment. Complaints have been logged with the Better Business Bureau, the Ministry of Consumer Services, and across various social networking platforms.
In an effort to counteract these fraudulent sales, the Ministry of Consumer Services will solidify consumer protection legislation by implementing new rules aimed those agencies which often mislead homeowners at the door-step into making poor purchase decisions.
"By focusing on door-to-door water heater sales, we're taking action on an important consumer concern and protecting Ontario's families, seniors, and newcomers when they make purchases at their front doors," says Tracy MacCharles, Minister of Consumer Services.
OCHS has always shown concern for consumers' well being, and praise this recent move by the Ministry which will provide better protection for Ontario consumers.
The successful implementation of the proposed reforms by the Ontario Government will undoubtedly "increase consumer confidence all across Ontario", creating "a fair, safe and informed marketplace" and providing opportunity to all good water heaters rental and furnaces rental companies, like Ontario Consumers Home Services, to fight against the bad businesses.
About Ontario Consumers Home Services:
Ontario Consumers Home Services is a 100% Canadian owned and operated company providing energy efficient home comfort products including water heaters, furnaces, air conditioners, and HVAC equipment. Ontario Consumers is committed to installing the latest green technology, including Energy Star high efficiency water heaters, furnaces and air conditioners that save on your energy costs.

One of the students at CHS has one of those fathers.
I heard about this man long before his daughter Sandy became a member of my English class. The words associated with him ran along the lines of "helicopter" and "intrusive" and "persistent," and "difficult," and none of them were said with glad enthusiasm. Needless to say, when I saw this man's daughter's name on my new class roster, I was a little nervous.
I decided to stuff it, though; I wasn't going to cower under the gaze of a hyper-involved father. I know my job and I do it well, so I figured I wasn't going to allow myself to be intimidated. I'd just go about my business and get in touch with dad when – or if – the time came.
It seems the time came a lot sooner than I was expecting.
I sent home a permission slip the other day so that I can show an R-rated film in my class. I included on the slip a brief explanation of my reasons for wanting to show the film and bullet points for what I expected the students to do with the experience.
Sandy's permission slip came back with a note attached. I got that feeling in the pit of my stomach (you know that feeling?) when I saw that there was commentary on the slip, so I steeled myself before reading it.
Imagine my surprise when I read that dad heartily approved of both my choice of movie AND my reasons for showing it. He was encouraged, he said, to see that I was expecting such high-level thinking from my students, and added that I have his full support.
I guess I made a good impression.

It's very common for toy breeds to have retained puppy teeth, but they must be removed because of the likelihood of them becoming diseased and abscessed. Your veterinarian could pull them while she is anesthetized for the spay, so that she only has to "go under" once.
We'll have our paws crossed for your sweet pea.

DeeJay had the same problem with the upper canine teeth. The vet said let her chew on harder toys and treats. The vet also said if they didn't come out then she would remove them when she was spayed. DeeJay's teeth did come out, both times we were playing with a tug toy. The vet said extra canine's should be removed if the dog retains them for a long time. Our other dog, a morkie also, Andy never had a problem with his teeth. On a side note DeeJay lost the extra canines at 7 months old. Hope this helps you.

Henrico's Top Teachers – Lynne Norris
By Tom Lappas, Citizen Editor (Photo by Robert Thomas for the Henrico Citizen) 02/16/12
Years spent in the corporate world convinced Lynne Norris that what she really wanted to do wasn't crunching numbers or clawing her way through middle management.
"I had said for a number of years that if I could do anything and money wasn't an object, I would go teach high school," she recalls.
Eventually, though, she dropped the financial condition.
"I quit my job, went to get my teacher certification and haven't looked back," she says.
The decision was an easy one for Norris, who is in her third year as department chair of Deep Run High School's Center for Information Technology, which draws students from throughout the county. As a parent of two teenage sons herself – and as someone who found motivation from her high school teachers – there was little question where Norris wanted to be.
Deep Run's program engages students in cutting-edge technology, helping to prepare them for college and careers in the field or as engineers, among other paths. The program counts 100 students among its ranks, and Norris says each one demonstrates skills and knowledge that impress her each day.
"I tell my students that in many ways they're much smarter than I am, because they grew up with this [technology] and I didn't. It's part of who they are – they just take off and run with it."
Norris requires each of her tenth-graders to become the class's "consultant of the week" once, a role that asks them to become an expert on a new technology topic, then teach the class about it.
"Some of the topics they come up with are just amazing," she says.
She also created a senior "Capstone" course that exposes students to four topics (information technology management, database design, network security or game design), during its first nine weeks, then allows them to choose one, study it in depth and write a research paper about the topic.
Norris fully involves herself not only in the center and her classes, but the students and the school community as a whole.
"Students enter her classroom eager to learn in a professional atmosphere where they are given up-to-date opportunities to discover, research and learn about the latest advancements in technology," a colleague wrote in a nomination letter. "She serves on several committees, always volunteers for tickets sales, attends school events, speaks before community groups about the center and mentors new teachers in the center. She is also the advisor to the Computer Club and mentors girls in information technology. She must have a cape somewhere in her wardrobe."
To Norris, her students make the job enjoyable and rewarding. They also keep her honest. "Being real with the students is really important, because they know when you're not," she says. "Putting it out there when I make a mistake, or if I don't know an answer, I think they respect that. And because of those things they trust me.
"I love these kids and I tell them that regularly. I don't have to care about these kids, but I really do. I care how they're doing in all of their other classes and activities. They're really willing to open up and do lots of things when they realize that people really do care."

Today, Rep. Grace F. Napolitano (D-CA) hosted a roundtable meeting with more than 50 members of her 38th Congressional District Mental Health Consortium, a group of local mental health professionals who advise Napolitano on mental health issues and policy.
"The mental health professionals gathered here have many years of experience helping the men, women, children, seniors, veterans, and people from all walks of life who suffer from mental health issues," Napolitano said. "We must use the wealth of real-world knowledge we have in our communities to inform the policies that are made in Washington, D.C."
The meeting at Santa Fe Springs Town Center Hall featured a talk on mental health issues for returning military veterans and an update on congressional hearings scheduled for the fall that will address how health insurance companies cover mental health. The roundtable also included a general discussion of local mental health issues, a question and answer segment, and a detailed questionnaire about local mental health practices.
Napolitano is the Co-Chair of the Congressional Mental Health Caucus. She has been active in securing mental health parity in health insurance and raising the profile of mental health in Congress. In Los Angeles County, she has worked to fund youth suicide prevention programs in 15 local schools over the last decade.

UK inflation could stay above its target for a long time, economists warn. Although they expect CPI inflation to fall in the next two months from the 2.7 per cent reported this week by the Office for National Statistics, most expect it to rise in the spring. Indeed, Victoria Clarke at Investec expects it to hit 3.5 per cent in June. This is partly because of rising food prices and utility bills, but also because falls in petrol and utility prices last spring will fall out of the annual inflation rate.

Rainforest Canopy | Epiphyte Laden Branch
Rainforest Canopy | Epiphyte Laden Branch
I have been meaning to start this project for a while. I have seen a few other similar ones around. I plan to do this one in a 30 X High, which isn't a lot of room. I want to take some time to find real small epiphytes that will scale well with the branch that I am making and the enclosure.
Earlier this morning I started making the branch feature. I might have selected a thick piece of manzanita for it, but decided to use GS foam. All that I did to star the shape was to place a piece of waxed paper over my bench top with a few scraps of wood underneath to make a more dimensional surface, then I just started to spray a twisted branch shape about 24" long. After it cures I will flip it over and apply more GS to the other side to get a more or less cylindrical branch form. I would shoot a picture of it now, but it's pretty ugly and not much to see.
I don't see very many very memorable pictures of this kind of thing on the Internet, which is surprising because trees loaded with epiphytes can be so visually striking. Back in the day I climbed a few tall trees down in Costa Rica and it was really amazing. If anybody might know about any real good albums on flickr or Pinterest or wherever I'd be interested to get the link as more visual reference. Here is a Wikimedia Commons image that shows a tree with some larger bromeliads and aroid climbers and stuff like that.
(Wikimedia Commons image: File:DirkvdM epiphytes.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
I'm going to do this as a Forest Floor setup with false bottom. It might also be engaging to pick out terrestrials for the planter pots. Terrestrial plants will need to be very short to fit with this idea. It would be great to find some more unusual mini terrestrial orchids, aroids and gesneriads. The bottom area might need some extra illumination because the epiphyte branch above will be well-lit but throw a lot of shade.
I don't know about livestock yet. I understand that there are some dart frog species (Ranitomeya spp.??) that are almost entirely arboreal. I might just make this a plant display. Some sort of insect might also work. There might or might not be connection between the branch and the bottom planted area with some fake vine features.
Wow, that is going to look amazing!
Here is the Great Stuff branch feature all expanded and cured. Now I need to start carving away at it.
I just remembered this older picture that shows scale in that 30 X High tank pretty well. I took it apart some time after getting this shot. This new setup will just have the single artificial branch in it, but the pictures shows pretty well how much space there is in there. I want to use mainly very small epiphytes and also use very short terrestrials underneath. I want to do some research and try to incorporate some more unusual terrestrials that I haven't tried before.
I carved away at the branch feature to get the general shape. Now I am going to coat it with the Drylok. I'm also going to have to stiffen it with some kind of reinforcement; I might use some of this thick anodized aluminum bonsai wire that I have. The Great Stuff foam is really flimsy and the branch shape just bends with any weight at all.
The expanded GS foam has a lot of air pockets in it and I bet that epiphytes would like the surface a lot. I'd like to get a can of the black GS for ponds and try some of it unfinished for growing orchids and ferns.
Subscribed. This looks promising. I hope you can get it look as beautiful as the first picture. Good luck!
Very cool, I was just looking at one of those trees yesterday in the plant growth building here on campus. I think that would be a really cool idea for the terrarium. I didn't try planting any of my orchids directly on the GS pond foam, so I can't comment on that, not sure if it would tend to hold moisture too well or not. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with on this one.
I hope to have some more pictures pretty soon.
The foam looks like it would hold some moisture and I think that orchids would like it as a substrate, but like I said I finished this piece with Drylok. I'd like to get some of the black Great Stuff for ponds and try that with orchids.
Looks promising, keep up the good work!
Hey how is your riparium doing? Do you still have it set up?
Here's the foam branch with Drylok and a steel eye bolt. There is another eye bolt on the other side too.
I left the foam surface rough and with the Drylok it made a more or less convincing bark-like finish. After getting this shot I covered the log with sphagnum moss. I'll post a picture of that in a bit.
1-VII-12-epiphyte-branch-I-m by hidrofit, on Flickr
I got this thing planted up tonight. Here is a quick shot showing the branch with sphagnum moss. I used the sheet sphagnum, which is a lot easier to attach than regular long-fibre, held in place with monofilament fishing line wrapped around and around. I mounted the plants with cotton sewing thread. I'll get a picture the whole planted feature tomorrow.
Here it is planted up. I could have selected better plants for this; these are just some random epiphytes that I had around. I mainly just want to use this planting to observe how the plants grow and also as growout. Now I need to set it up in the enclosure.

even I am facing the same problem. I have submitted all the required documents but my account is still limited and i can't receive or send money from my paypal account. This is now 2nd month, my account is limited even after submitting proper documents. And when I contacted them via mail they reply me with the same text again and again, and below is the message they have sent me fourth time as a reply to my complaint.
"You have nothing to worry because I can assure you that we are actively working with your government in resolving it immediately. In the meantime, please disregard the notification you received in your account about updating your PAN since it was posted by error. Our technicians are working to remove this notification as soon as possible."
This isn't done . My 70% earning come from remotely done freelance job and VH and remaining 20% from local clients. So I can't wait for such a long time for paypal. And that's why finally i register on moneybooker last week, this is 1st time i am withdrawing my earning to moneybookers from VH and i hope everything will be fine with it and i will receive my payments on time.
I'm probably on the way to have this problem too. Can anyone tell what is the limit after which you need to verify?
xstortionist said
just connect paypal to ur bank account.
Without a business account (or pro account, whatever it's called) I think you can only accept up to $XXXXX per year or something daft…
Like they should care with their % cut
I guess it depends on the country, i'm from Mexico city and never had problems with PayPal, they don't charge me for transferring my money to my bank account (only if the transaction is less than $150 USD )
I hope they never ask me for documents, my drivers license is 5 years old (is permanent) so i don't want to spend $50 USD to get a new one.
I had some issues here as well long time ago but the way I solved it after sending the requested documentation even if they were older than specified I still had to call PayPal on the phone and got the issue solved fast.
Just give them a call and explain the issue and they will take care of it in seconds. This is a matter of security and calling them gives them more trust in you.

Regulation of Rab7 (show RAB7B Antibodies) activity by mutant LRRK2 (show LRRK2 Antibodies) in Parkinson's disease impairs membrane trafficking at very late stages of the endocytic pathway.
LKB1 (show STK11 Antibodies) promotes RAB7 (show RAB7B Antibodies)-mediated neuropilin-1 (show NRP1 Antibodies) degradation to inhibit angiogenesis
Taken together, these results suggested that Rab7 (show RAB7B Antibodies) acts as a negative regulator of prostate tumor growth and invasion, providing further evidence for its potential as a tumor suppressor.
RAB family members are small, RAS-related GTP-binding proteins that are important regulators of vesicular transport. Each RAB protein targets multiple proteins that act in exocytic / endocytic pathways. This gene encodes a RAB family member that regulates vesicle traffic in the late endosomes and also from late endosomes to lysosomes. This encoded protein is also involved in the cellular vacuolation of the VacA cytotoxin of Helicobacter pylori. Mutations at highly conserved amino acid residues in this gene have caused some forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) type 2 neuropathies.

text: I recently purchased a 2005 Sts v8 and upon driving in cruise control I have noticed that while the engine is under a load it seems fine, but as soon as it crests a hill and while coasting it seems as though there's a drag or the brakes are being tapped. is this something to do with the VVT or is it something I should have looked into. This is my first Caddy and had 5000 miles when purchased. Thanks in advance for any help/advise, John

Russian Market
The Central Market of Hoi An, Vietnam is an institution. A busy, crowded, well-used institution. Between the carts of the vendors, the feet of the shoppers, and the more than occasionally intruding flood waters from the river, the streets of the Central Market are covered in potholes. In an effort to smooth the way, the market vendors have filled the worst potholes with broken flip flops - or perhaps the flip flops just got stuck in a pothole and rather than struggle, the owners left them behind.
If you look over the chaos in front of New Delhi's train station, across the street is the most decrepit Travel Lodge in the world. The sheets may not be clean, the windows may be little more than squared off holes in the walls, but the location can't be beat!

This is an iconic urban element especially for Chinese people as their main public transport in the country. It is a surprise for me when I saw this in an European city. It is the transport for sustainable urban communities: eco-environmentally friendly carbon-free transport which is visibly found in the high streets of Paris. The French government introduced this bike transity system known as "Velib" last year (2007) as a new self-service to allow people (including tourists) to to pick up and drop off bikes throughout the city at 1,451 locations and 20,600 bikes.

'Think Like a Man' cast dishes love advice
Tim Story, the happily married director of Think Like a Man, has been off the dating market for some time. He found, however, he had a cast that was as full of relationship advice as the literary inspiration for his movie.
Based on Steve Harvey's best-selling book, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man: What Men Really Think About Love,Relationships, Intimacy and Commitment, Story's film (out April 20) follows four guy friends (Terrence J, Jerry Ferrara, Romany Malco and Michael Ealy) plus their boisterous pal (Kevin Hart), who's in the middle of a divorce. They're beginning relationships with four women (Regina Hall, Gabrielle Union, Meagan Good and Taraji P. Henson) who are armed with knowledge of the male mind from Harvey's book.
"I'll say this about my wife: She knows those rules. That's kind of how she got me," says Story, 42. "I never expected to be married, just because I didn't think I could find someone as cool as she is. When I read the book, it just mirrored what I had been through in my life."
Union jokes that she and Hart could even write their own book: "What I Learned From My Divorce." So in the spirit of Harvey's book, they and their castmates from Think Like a Man imparted their best relationship advice from their own love lives — some of which could help their own characters.
"No advice is the best advice."
Trailer: 'Think Like a Man'
Terrence J
Words of wisdom: "Every relationship is completely different — different people, different dynamic — and the more you listen to outside influence instead of following your heart and working with your partner, the more chances you have of messing things up," says 29-year-old Terrence Jenkins, known as Terrence J. "When you get older, you have enough relationships under your belt to know what's good and what's bad and what's right and what's wrong."
Should his character heed them? Indeed. An unabashed mama's boy, Michael listens more to his friends than his mother, but he's much better off being ruled by his instincts when wooing single mom Candace (Hall).
"Communication is key."
Regina Hall
Words of wisdom: Let people know how you're feeling about a situation, says Hall, 41. "There are gender differences and we can interpret one situation completely different." That is particularly important for single mothers: Hall says they should tell suitors about their kids sooner rather than later. "Your kid's going to come first, so you'll have to be with someone who loves them as much as you do."
Should her character heed them? Yes, and she does, telling Michael about her son early in their courtship. However, talking to him frankly about his relationship with his mother is not as simple.
"Love yourself the way you want to be loved."
Romany Malco
Words of wisdom: "A lot of times, we are looking for love from others we haven't really afforded ourselves," says Malco, 43. "I met a woman one time, and she said she wanted to be treated like a princess. I went to her house, and it was a pigsty. I was like, 'This is how princesses live?' It's a lot of responsibility to get with someone who's looking to you to fill a void they can't fulfill themselves."
Should his character heed them? Well, as the "player" of the group, Zeke is out to get as much love as possible, if we stick to that theme. His world is rocked, however, when he meets Mya (Meagan Good), who enforces the 90-day rule before he can get some of her — as she and Harvey put it — "cookie."
"Make your line in the sand known."
Gabrielle Union
Words of wisdom: "We tend to want to shoot past that because it's not as romantic," says Union, 39. "But I don't think there's anything more romantic than two people who are very clear about each other's wants, needs, desires, expectations, passions and what you will and won't stand for."
Should her character heed them? Yep. And it would have helped get her closer to the engagement ring she desperately wants if she put her foot down about Jeremy's action-figure collection and animé posters littering their humble abode.
"Think in the long term."
Jerry Ferrara
Words of wisdom: The former Entourage star discovered in the past year that it's best to not dwell on what you want in a lover or a relationship. "That's always going to change," says Ferrara, 32. "You may want to date a woman who loves to travel, and guess what? Five years from now, you may not want to ever travel again. You may want to start a family. … Focus on the things you know that are dealbreakers, and if you see one of those, know that it's not going to change."
Should his character heed them? Jeremy can't quite see that far ahead. He's too busy playing video games to look past the short term in life or plan a future with his long-suffering girlfriend, Kristen (Union).
"Be honest."
Michael Ealy
Words of wisdom: Though he has 23 years of dating experience under his belt, it wasn't until four years ago that the 38-year-old really took the whole "honesty is the best policy" mantra to heart. "Except if she asks you 'Am I fat?' Don't ever tell her the truth if she asks you that," Ealy says. "Treat her the way you want to be treated, and that seems to bring a certain amount of mutual respect and understanding."
Should his character heed them? Definitely. A dreamer who wants to own his own restaurant, Dominic keeps his gig parking cars secret to impress hotel executive Lauren (Henson).
"Friends first."
Taraji P. Henson
Words of wisdom: If you're looking for longevity in a relationship, friendship is the only thing that'll keep you and your significant other together, advises Henson, 41, a veteran of initially going for romance at the start in her younger years. "There are days where you're just not going to like that person. They are going to make you so mad, but you have to be able to look at them and say, 'I really want to hate you today, but I really like you because you're my friend.' "
Should her character heed them? Possibly, since Lauren jumps into a relationship with Dominic after she believes he's well-to-do. Perhaps if they were friends first, she wouldn't freak out when she finds out the truth, or when an old beau comes back into her life.
"Take your time."
Kevin Hart
Words of wisdom: "I'm a person who's made my mistakes, and I've learned from them," says the comedian, 32. "I recently went through a divorce, and it makes me think about how can I improve and become a better man so that when I do decide to get married again, I do better. Find a positive in those negatives. As soon as it's over, re-evaluate you and the mistakes you made. Because of it, me and my ex-wife are great friends now. We have a job to do, and it's raising two beautiful children. When you mature, you understand what's important — it's about life and making the best of it."
Should his character heedthem? That might have helped, sure, but when we first meet motormouth, relationship-hating Cedric, his divorce from his wife can't come fast enough — and he tries to persuade all of his friends to take his stance. But he is helped in the end by thinking a little less like a man and instead connecting with his true feelings.

However, what really makes The Phantom Hourglass work is that it hasn't made the mistake of, say, Super Mario 64 DS and tried to make an existing analogue control system function using touch-screen and buttons - it's been built from the ground up to use touch-screen controls. Unlike many DS games the action takes place on the lower DS screen, with the upper screen dominated by a real-time map. Touch and hold a point on the screen and Link runs towards it, jumping over obstacles if need be on the way. Tap an enemy and he attacks it with his sword; drag the stylus across your foe and Link deals out a vicious slash. Draw a ring around Link and he does his classic spin-attack. The longer the game goes on, the more sophisticated the controls get. The boomerang, for example, now follows a line you draw on the screen, while bombs can be picked up and thrown at any point within range you can tap on. It's a brilliant system, and the fact that you rarely need to touch anything except the touch-screen makes it one of the most comfortable and intuitive on the DS.
Of course, no DS game can exist without a few gimmicks, and The Phantom Hourglass has its share of blowing, singing and shouting, but this isn't one of those games where odd controls have been bolted on seemingly for the sake of it (I'm looking at you, Twilight Princess). No, it's one of those great Nintendo moments where the software and hardware make perfect sense of one another. Even the feature that seems most like a gimmick - the ability to annotate your map - turns out to be genuinely useful.
But even with some of the best visuals on the DS and arguably the finest control system, The Phantom Hourglass would still fall flat if it didn't 'feel' like a proper Legend of Zelda. This has always been hard to capture in words. How can games as different in style and presentation as Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker and The Twilight Princess still have a consistent feel? Why do we love a series of games where so many of the elements and a good portion of the gameplay repeat from one to the next? I guess the answer is that Legend of Zelda always manages to deliver a broadly similar experience, but with enough differences to keep it feeling fresh. It's an experience of high adventure, with a chunk of epic fantasy, a touch of fairy-tale and a smidgeon of silliness. We don't just get a game; we get a world to explore and a story that will makes us want to.

Key Fob Problem
GM Rep, I have a serious problem with my 2011 V Coupe. I stopped at 7-11 this morning for coffee. When I came out my doors would not unlock. I used the OnStar ap on my IPhone to unlock the doors. When I got in the DIC showed the following message "No FOB found" and then "Theft Attempted". After about 15 minutes everything worked fine. I have had the car for almost 3months and this happens about once a week. The dealer said they could not find a problem. Of course it works fine at the dealership. I would really hate to be steamed because of this problem.

Re: Key Fob Problem
I had the same thing happen and it turned out to be a faulty key fob. The dealer replaced it and I haven't had any trouble since. You might try your other fob to narrow the problem down to the car or the fob. Also, be sure to read in the manual how to insert it into the slot in the console in case it's a battery issue. If you're stranded someplace, that's at least something to something to try.
Re: Key Fob Problem
I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing this issue. Does this happen with both of your key fobs?
Thank you,
Elizabeth, Cadillac Customer Service

Since we moved to Saint Augustine, I had been getting mixed reviews about The Reef, some people really like it, some people really don't and others were kind of indifferent to it. So, as usual, I decided to check it out for myself.
You can't argue that the restaurant has a magnificent view. Like the menu boldly states: "Every Table Has a Fine View". There are huge windows everywhere, and you can see the waves crashing into shore. This is what really attracted us to The Reef to begin with. It is always nice to have a great view while eating – and we figured even if the food wasn't much, we could enjoy looking at the ocean. But much to our pleasant surprise, The Reef had more to offer than just a great view.
Now I am not going to say that The Reef is the best restaurant that I have ever been to, but there were some very nice things about it, for example their wine selection. Each month they feature wines from a certain country and in May it was Argentina. One of my favorite wine countries. When I first started drinking wine and caring about it, I was a big fan of Merlot. I loved the rich and warm flavors. I liked the tannins. When I started discovering more wines, I favored Shiraz and Syrah – the dessert wines, full of spice and fruit. I still really love a good Shiraz, but once I discovered the Malbecs of Argentina, I knew I had found my wine of choice. There is a sophistication to a Malbec, but at the same time, it is very drinkable and heady. So, much to my pleasure, I was able to enjoy a nice Malbec at The Reef, which is rare in most restaurants.
As many of you know, I am a big tapas, meze or small plate eater. I find that often chefs get most creative and bold with their appetizers because they don't have to appeal to such a wide audience as they do with entrees. Plus they have to pack a wallop of flavor into a small plate. Therefore, more times than not I will order an appetizer for dinner when we go out. I decided to order the Mussels, served in a white wine sauce with saffron and cream. I also ordered a small salad to go with it. The ginger dressing that came with the salad, really was outstanding. The mussels were a nice portion, served with cheese toasts to sop up the juices. The initial tastes were very pleasing, it tasted vaguely of the sea, and I was enjoying the sauce and plump mussels. However, after a few bites, I noticed that there was just quite a bit of salt in the dish, which just became too overwhelming that after a while salt was all I tasted. What a pity.
For as much of a small plates girl I am, Roberto is equally a pasta man. Like any self respecting Italian. He also has really been enjoying scallops. So when he saw a dish called Scallops Carbonara, he couldn't resist. His dish was actually quite good. The sauce was really nice and not too heavy and overdone, but the scallops were the true prize. There is something about Southern Scallops that are so much sweeter and delicious than their Northern cousins. These were no exception. They were tender, juicy, sweet and filling. He was very happy with his dinner and I loved the scallop that he shared with me.
The other thing I must compliment was the service. Our waitress, Brittany was very nice and gave us as much attention as we needed without being overbearing. She was very professional and knew her menu.
We opted out of dessert (I bet the Key Lime Pie is good…) and decided to go for a nice walk along the beach. It was a beautiful night, warm and balmy, and still light outside. The moon was out and there was no one else on the beach near us. It was a perfect end to our romantic evening.
I am not sure if I would go back to The Reef, just to go. Maybe for taking visitors from out of town, the view is great and the food is decent and there is something on the menu that would appeal to anyone. Just be sure to taste before you salt!

Hi Jenn! Back home and profiting from the Lisbon's Day holiday (St. Anthony of Lisbon, not Padua), I'm trying to catch up your posts (What a nice week: June 10th, Portugal's Day; June 13th, Lisbon's Day… ).
This seems to be a great place; I definitely can't resist some decent scallops…
Blogtrotter has now landed in Santiago de Compostela, Spain! Hope you enjoy, and have a nice weekend!

Can't get seated at Cap's? Still want a really good meal? Well, just meander across A1A over to The Reef and they will take care of you, get you seated in a reasonable amount of time, and serve you a meal that is created, prepared and served with care and expertise. A friendly bar, attentive food servers, and a price structure that won't require a home equity loan. We came up from Fort Lauderdale for this year's beachfront vacation and found The Reef to exceed our expectations in all respects. We'll be back!

Lear Capital: Is Gold Headed for $7000 in a Repeat of the Last Decade?
Ten years ago, with gold at $260 an ounce, it was hard to imagine or predict gold at $1400. Frankly, though, it was not our forte' to make gold price predictions. Rather our message was the same then as it is now - Diversify!! The first and foremost reason to own gold is to protect what you already have. You never know what disaster may strike.
Looking ahead it's hard to imagine another decade like the last. One that saw gold rise more than 400% while stocks fell 10%. Some say the worst is behind us. Others say the worst is yet to come. With global debt rising, paper currencies losing purchasing power as fast as they can be printed and the threat of default looming heavy around every corner, it is hard to imagine things getting better.
I will be so bold as to say, we ain't seen nothin' yet! If default on rising debt does not bring a swift end to savings and retirement accounts, inflation will inflict a slow death. In a recent article, Paul B. Farrell, gives us 10 Reasons To Shun Stocks Till Banks Crash. Farrell calls, Stocks a sucker bet in a rigged game and predicts a meltdown ahead.
He goes on to say that when you adjust for inflation, stocks lost 20% for investors over the last decade and then predicts they will do the same over the decade to come.
Now the question remains, How will you prepare for what's ahead?
Ten years ago, it was easy to believe, stocks will return 8% per year.
Ten years ago, it was hard to imagine gold at $1400 an ounce.
Ten years ago it was easy to say, What's there to prepare for?
Now, it's easy to see how stocks could be in for another 20% inflation adjusted loss by 2020; it's easy to see how gold could rise above $7000 an ounce over the next ten years; and by now it should be hard to ignore the warnings that flash brighter than a cops lights in your rear view mirror.
Last time the warnings were subtle. Now they scream at us to take steps to protect our wealth. Stay alert and get Diversified!! Visit LearCapital.com regularly for breaking news, free special reports and the best online pricing for gold and silver coins.

Help! Window is leaking.
Last year we noticed minor leaking from inside some of our window frames during heavy rains. We put the spray-in foam where we thought the leak was coming from (in the window frame). We found out that was not the cause when we got the first heavy rain this year.
I am not sure how to proceed. This could be leak(s) in the roof resulting in a systematic leak that is only apparent when it comes through windows or it could be coming through the flashing or it could just be something with the windows and how they were put in by the previous owner.
Should I bring in a general contractor? or a roofer? or something else? How can I protect myself from getting into undue cost (since it's kind of a mystery to me). I'm pretty novice at this stuff.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
What type of siding do you have? Do you have brick mould or another type of trim around the exterior of your window?
When trim is put on, it is common practice to caulk around and seal any gaps between the moulding and siding. After time and weather take their toll, some of this caulking begins to break away from the siding and form a small crack where water can seep in. I had a similar problem and couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Then I looked at the top of my brick mould and their was a small gap from weathered caulking.
If there is moisture above the window nearer to the ceiling or on the ceiling check your attic for signs of water.
I guess the first step would be to get a handyman to find if the roof is leaking... I suppose they can find out by hosing down the rood and looking for leaks int he attic?
leaking windows
We had windows that leaked. The windows were defective. To prove to the window manufacturer we put duck tape crossed the out side of the sill and made like a pan. We poured water in it and the water leaked on the sides of window at bottom. We had 12 that were like this. Hope you can understand what I am trying to say.
If you can access the attic easily, you won't need to hire anyone. If there is a leak, regardless of how much or when you received rain, you will see darkened spots where a leak is.
The other DIY option is to get a moisture reader and test the areas around your window all the way up your wall and see if there is moisture present. If there is you should be able to trace it to the source.
Thanks for the advice. We took a hose and put water directly on the outside wall above the window frame and sure enough water started leaking through the window frame and inside the house. I still can't see any visible cracks around the window frame on the outside wall though. But somehow water is getting into the window and in the house .
You will have to try a few test first.
This time just spray water on one side of the window.
If water is seen inside then look more closely at the are that the water wa sprayed on.
If water does not leak then wait some time and then spray water on the opposite side. If water leaks inside then further investigate for gaps around the window.
Try to locate the leak by testing smaller areas instead of just spraying the entire window area.
You had mentioned I believe that the windows were installed by the previous homeowner. Are these retro windows then? If so then the window flange will actually extend past the stucco on the outside of the home. If this is the case retro fit windows have intregal weeping systems built into them. You should have weep holes visible from the outside of the window. Make sure that these holes are free and clear of any debris. Sounds simple, but I have ran into a few cases were this was the problem. In the event that you believe that the windows are in fact defective it's best to contact the manufacturer and allow them to conduct tests. This should be free to you as long as you are still under warranty.

Catrinel Haught Tromp
Assistant Professor II
Born and raised in Romania, I first came to the US by myself as a 15-year old foreign exchange student, an adventure that continues to this day. I discovered Psychology at Queens University, where I received my BA summa cum laude in three years. At age 22, armed with nothing but love for my field, I started graduate school at Princeton, where I got my PhD in four short but transformative years. I was thrilled to receive a teaching award and departmental nomination for a NY Academy of Sciences research prize.
While working on my dissertation, I was recruited to work for a quantitative hedge fund in New York City, a fabulous opportunity and challenge. After the birth of my son, I returned to the beautiful world of academia, complete with research and teaching at Princeton and Rider. I phased out of my latest business role as president of a boutique recruiting firm once I became full-time faculty at Rider in 2011.
I live in Princeton with my husband Jeroen and son Matthew.
My specialty is Cognitive Psychology, and my main research interests are creativity, language, and organizational behavior. I have supervised and collaborated on projects in other areas with Rider students who are eager to engage in research.
I love to hear thoughts and personal stories on creativity, and I welcome collaborations with faculty and students. To get in touch, please email me at [email protected].

User Feedback(Page 7 of 8, 150 total comments)
yeah i agree with dennis, losing weight is a huge commitment and if its not working for you its because youre obviously still eating like pigs and not excercising. for a reason its called a diet supplement because it just helps it doesnt magically get rid of fat so if you cant handle dieting and excercising than dont buy it geez!
so its me again. I've decided not to continue with the packets. They give me a ton of energy, but I can't stand the fact that I'm so dang nauseous all the time. I feel like I'm going to vomit at any moment, but it never happens. I think this is probably part of the reason why my appetite is curved; I can't seem to want to eat anything b/c of the stomach sickness. (and no I'm not possibly prego so that can be ruled out as a reason for the nausea) At first I had headaches and nausea. Now I just feel ridiculously nauseous.
It isn't bad, but I don't think its for everyone. Test it out, see how it makes you feel, and make your choice. I can't stand feeling nauseous for another day, so I will opt out and throw in my hydroxycut towel in for good. I will continue a healthy diet and exercise. Good luck all!
I am trying this Hydroxycut drink mix. I am small framed and don't need to lose alot of weight, 5-6 lbs. Previously tried the pill form. Not good for me! Trying this drink mix is easy and becuz I am not the average big woman, I used only 1/2 the packet and will continue unless there develops problems. I am being very careful becuz I have had heart palpitations previously with other products.* My 20 yr.old son has lost 5-6 lbs in about a week & 1/2 with no problems as yet. Will keep you informed.
I have taken the capsule and didnt have much luck in the past. A friend introduced me to this drink packet, and I must say I think it is a great energy boost! I didnt need to lose much weight, and Im NOT an excersise buff, but with cutting down on fast food and junk, and drinking one or two of these a day I have lost 15lbs since mid January! Yeah I am impressed!
As a M.D doctor;the statements about causing death is not even possable...i love this product.
ok so like im 16 right an di got the hydroxy cut harcore pills because iw orkout and yeah i also whish to lose some lbs ok and i told my parents and they flipped out but i must disobey and so i let them keep the 2bottles of hydroxycut hardcore and got the packets (softdrink) ok so i kinda need to use it too lose some weight for an occasion but yeah like im kinda nervous about using it like i dunno what to do............
The pros: I don't know if I have any changes in my size or weight, but the packets definitely give me more energy and curve my appetite.
The cons: I bought the lemon flavored drink mixes and I'm not too fond of the taste. They kind of make me sick to my stomach when I'm drinking them. The fact that you have to drink an entire bottle of the stuff makes it worse. I recommend the pills b/c you just drink them and get it over with.
There were also moments where I felt my heart would speed up when I wasn't even doing anything.
I don't know if this is a good thing or not, but at times I would feel a lot of energy and feel like I need to do something. This wouldn't be too great b/c of the fact that I sit at a desk while at work for 8 hrs.
I'm about to try this stuff. Bottom line for those who died overseas, why didn't you bother to tell what daily training and the equipment they have and do every day? I also bet they were E-5 and below where someone was not monitoring their hydration. Everyone knows to hydrate extra when your on weight loss pills. 15 months for me and not one of my soldiers died from their weightloss program
hydroxy-cut caused ten deaths in Iraq last year. It almost caused my liver and kidneys to fail when I tried it whan I was deployed. Hotter conditions and the need of water is extreme, so I feel this product should have an extra warning label, or something. Nothing sucks more than getting shot at while your legs are filling up with fluids.
I've been drinking 1-2 packets in water every morning for a week and haven't noticed any difference.
I have only one in the morning. I think it curbs the appetite for sweets and gives me an energy boost. This stuff doesn't give me the jitters, coffee gives me the jitters. I've changed my diet by adding Green Giant Frozen Vegetables, apples, and nuts too. I've done less snacking on sweets since those changes.
I've only tried this for about 2 weeks now, so far so good. I was jittery at first & didn't get a lot of sleep only because I am not used to caffiene at all! I lost my belly "pouch" in that short a time. I have no more jitters & I sleep fine, guess I'm used to it now. I will keep it up as I have more to lose. I find I've lost many inches, not too much weight yet
i tried the drink mix packets alone and i loved it. it helped me loose 5lbs within the first 2 weeks! i only used 2 packets a day one before breakfast and one before lunch! with no exercise! now that i have time.. i'm going to start walking more and up the packets to the amount they tell you to use! i can't wait for the results.
I'm so sick and tierd of hearing whiney jack asses like your selfs constally putting down products and labeling them as a " scam " just because they didn't work for you !
You have no idea how long i've searched ways to lose weight and everytime I find something I think or know that would work I constantly see bad reviews from people like you .
Been taking for 4 days now. Don't know if it's gonna make the fat melt off but I am pretty slender anyway. Definitely curbs the appetite which is what I was looking for. And seriously...if the guys friend had died from it he probably woulda put more info than that. Just don't drink for at least 3 hours before bed because you won't be able to sleep!
It made me real jittery. I started seeing dots before my eyes and it made me hungry. I started craving everything I shouldn't be eating.
I've tried this product and have had no jittery or scary side effects. In fact, I found it very effective at curbing appetite. I did not notice any massive amounts of energy or shakiness. The key is to remember it is a supplement, not a miracle. Exercise and a common sense diet along with this dietary supplement is a winning combination.
it works for me Im still taking it. It did not make anyone die! I lost 18 pounds in 2 months. Gives you energy but if your caffeine sensative not a good idea. I eat healthy for the most part and exercise daily so this helps. I reccomend it.
you shouldn't take it if you ask me,I was fine til i took diet pills and then I got high blood pressure and have to take pills now for life,,Just watch what ya eat and go for walks is what i do now and have lost,,pills and drink mix are not good for u..
wow! i started taking it for like two days now,,,and ummm, hello? someone DIED from it?????????????? shouldnt they be sued??????????????? if i were this companys owner i would totally shut it down,,, how is it americas #1??????????????

WORLD at New Broadcasting House
I fetched up this morning at the new wing of Broadcasting House to do my Point of View recording (just next to the Old Broadcasting House and where most of the outlying bits of the BBC are gradually being brought in). It was the first time I had been there in daylight . . . and the first time I had had a good look around.
Parts of the building are extremely elegant, and there are wonderful vertiginous vistas through glass from upper floors to the ground. And it's a great match for the old Broadcasting House. What is more, good or bad, anyone who think that BBC staff work in the lap of spacious luxury could well take a look round the packed "open plan" offices. (Not sure who chose the carpets though...some of the retro orange was a bit blood-curdling.)
But what caught my eye even more was the art work in the piazza outside. It's called WORLD by Mark Pimlott, and it is simply a series of lines of latitude and longitude set in the pavement, plus a series of place names.
Sounds silly?
Well it might do, but actually those place names were intriguing and entrancing. Not just which place names had been chosen to evoke the world (and to evoke, I suppose, the idea of "nation speaking unto nation"), and which place names had been chosen from history.. but also how they were nicely juxtaposed. What was put next to what.
I was pleased to find Pompeii represented, next to Portsmouth (didn't quite figure that), and Rubicon (one of rather few rivers)... and Troy next to Agincourt (battle sites?)...and Bhopal next to Aberfan (human disasters with a sense of industrial culpability). And so on.
It's one of those neatly simple ideas that works partly because it is so simple, and because it joins the familiar with the strange, and makes clever choices from the past. A bit like the way the names of all those movie stars work, set in the Hollywood pavement.
Needless to say the BBC bashers had had a go -- I discovered from a speedy web-search -- about wasting the licence-fee on this kind of thing. But the fact is that you dont get planning permission for a big project like this new Broadcasting House without putting a substantial amount of money into associated "public art". Which is what this is. (Though come to think of it I don't see why they couldn't have had a statue of George Orwell too...)

For the past two weeks we have been tracing satellite imagery into OpenStreetMap to support some of our subscribers using MapBox Streets. OpenStreetMap's real power is that if something isn't on the map, you can just add it. So this is more than just open data for us, this is about co-creation and collaborating with a larger community.
Around the sprint table at the MapBox office in Washington DC
The fact that the geography around us is constantly changing is why we are using OpenStreetMap to power our key maps. Not only does OpenStreetMap have amazing data today - every day the data improves as the its network of contributors grows. Right now, our team is focusing on completing a few key populous cities, making sure that suburbs and popular features like buildings, rivers, and parks provide meaningful and attractive context for users. With a team of six people heads down we can very quickly light up a city and meet other local contributors working on the ground.
A look at new edits over the last week to Guadalajara, Mexico, a huge city with the metropolitan area of over 4 million people.
The Tools to Start Tracing
To add all of these features, we're using JOSM an open source desktop editor for OpenStreetMap. Here is a quick step by step of how you can start tracing imagery in 5 minutes using the same tools and processes we are.
Before you start tracing, be sure to read the OpenStreetMap editing standards and conventions, then download JOSM. It's helpful to have a mouse on hand (versus a trackpad), as you'll want to do a lot of precise clicking. Once you've set up and run JOSM, click the 'download data' button at the top left.
You will see a map similar to openstreetmap.org. Find and select the area you are interested in and click download. To pan around the map, press and hold CTRL. To select an area, just use the left mouse button.
To edit, add Bing Imagery under the Imagery dropdown menu.
You'll then want to toggle between JOSM's three modes using these key bindings: draw (A), select (S), and delete (D). Use draw to add nodes, ways and areas. When you're done adding a way, double click on the last node. To create an area simply close a series of nodes by attaching the last node the the first. For more advanced editing, check out the online guide and useful plugins.
Once you've created your features, tag them appropriately with a preset (see 'Presets' menu) or directly via the 'Properties' window (see 'Windows' menu). Good resources for learning how to tag elements in OpenStreetMap include TagInfo and the Map Features page of the OpenStreetMap wiki. Explore the various list-serves and engage others in the OpenStreetMap community.
Now you're ready to map the world.
Designing your Map
If you are looking to create your own custom designed map of OpenStreetMap data, it is easy to do so. Once your data is in OpenStreetMap, download TileMill, the open source design studio then read "Create a custom map of your city in 30 minutes with TileMill and OpenStreetMap". You will be able to make maps that look a lot like MapBox Streets and host them on your own MapBox account, with even free plans. If you have questions post them to support.mapbox.com.

Dr. Jackson's research focuses on the interface between patients and providers in primary care. He has explored the nature of communication between clinicians and providers and its effects on outcomes, and has conducted clinical trials to improve shared decision making. He has explored the nature of the "difficult" encounter and has intervened to decrease the number of encounters deemed difficult, improving outcomes from these visits. He has also explored the nature of symptoms in primary care, both as a manifestation of mental disorders as well as the best methods for managing symptoms.
Accordingly, he has explored the prevalence of depression, anxiety and somatization disorders in primary care, the frequency of recognition, and the long-term outcomes of these syndromes. He has published a series of systematic reviews looking at the best treatments for patients suffering from a number of different symptom syndromes, including fibromyalgia, headaches, irritable bowel syndrome, and chronic pelvic pain.

Potato towers: Harvesting the towers
August 7 — The potato plants are dead, and I've let them sit for a few weeks while they suberize, meaning the skins harden, giving potatoes their special storing power.
I unwrapped the bamboo screening, and lifted up the cage. It's a cinch! And sure enough, potatoes fell out the bottom.

46" RPTV Free for Pickup in Charlotte NC
I recently replaced my old 46" Zenith RPTV manufactured in 1990 with a new HD set. The reason I made the jump is that it has problems with the picture on the right side, as shown in the picture below.
This is not a convergence issue directly, as if you tap on the adjustment board, it goes away, sometimes for weeks, other times just for a few minutes. I suspect a bad cap or similar, but I am not (nor do I recommend) fixing it without professional help.
This TV is free for pick-up in Charlotte, NC. I can help load it, but I'd recommend bringing a friend, as I would estimate it to be 300+ pounds.
The vinyl wood covering on the outside is pretty beat-up, but it would be OK in a sports room or similar. If you figure out how to fix the picture problem permanently, it would be great in the family room.
As it is a 1990 model, it doesn't even have S-Video or any other tings that are commonplace today, but it still looks good with DVD's etc.
Post here or let me know if you are interested. I plan on disposing of it in 1 week if I can't find a home for it, as it is pretty big to just have sitting around.
Its gone
Another site I posted on had some people suggest how to fix the problem with the screen. I did fix it and it was immediatly picked up.
