Four Points by Sheraton St. Catharines Niagara Suites
Top Business Hotel
I found the room to be very comfortable with alot of space and extremely clean. I also liked the decor, especially in the bedroom. The night was also noiseless which was great considering there was a hockey tournament that weekend and you were fully booked, our room was situated in a back corner and it was perfect for us. One of these days I'm going to try the Presidential Suite. No, The Four Points has always been my first choice in hotels and you have yet to disappoint me. Keep up the good work!
Staff was very friendly Room with 2 beds could have left 2 complimentary bottles of water vs only 1
spacious and very comfortable suite, which was spotlessly clean and carefully maintained. All of the hotel had a spacious, airy feel about it. Would definitely recommend it. Plenty of room in the car park as well which was free. Also wifi in the the room. Not the hotel's fault, but ill-behaved children running up and down the corridors, screaming and laughing. They were only having children's fun but it was inappropriate behaviour and the parents should have behaved more responsibly. Perhaps hotel security staff might have been checked it.
Great location. Hotel is about 10-20 minutes from Niagara Falls, Niagara-on-the-Lake, St Catherine's, Port Dalhousie and various wineries. Very easy to get any place of interest in that region. Also, Toronto was about 90 minute drive away as well. The food at the hotel was good (to very good). Additionally, my wife and I thought the staff were very attentative and courteous. Overall, we were very happy with our purchase. The fitness center could use an upgrade but it had all the basics.
We arrived and they could not find our booking from, Booking.com so they gave us 2 free breakfast passes, we were very pleased with the outcome, we have stayed at this hotel many times, and would not stay any where else, just love it.
We liked the fact that our family of 5 adults were able to stay comfortably in the suite for one price. It was very central to Brock U. where our visit was centered as well as to the mall.
Staff were great. Not sure if I got the points added to my rewards card or not.
The staff are excellent. The rooms are clean. It is so conveniently located. I travel 7 hours to visit my granddaughter and I stay here. the amenities are great. Nothing additional needed.
Very close to Brock Univercity where we were attending a Dance Convention Very good Hotel - no complaints at all
Very economical. Clean and Pleasant.
Very good location. Its very accessible to the highway, and close to restaurants and coffee shops, etc. There is a coffeemaker and a small fridge for snacks and stuff The single bed was smaller than I thought it was, but that should'nt take away from the hotel itself
Convenient location, easy access, very decent staff/owners Bedding was not too comfortable, glad we got 2 double queen because double it is, queen it is not
Clean, newly refurbished, quiet though near highway. Fridge Continental breakfast
Nice owner clean room best bang for your buck in town. Centrally located
Very clean and recently renovated rooms, quiet, nice view of the water, great to have a fridge, conveniently located. Friendly owners and staff. Outside and lobby needs some updating to be as nice as the rooms - still looks like an old style motel outside which may turn off some people. Should take advantage of the outdoor space a bit more but noisy close to the highway so would need fountains / noise barriers.
Amazing staff who made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. There were no bad points we loved everything.
Easy to access off of highway, nice staff, nice room A little tricky gettting out of the parking lot to turn right or left
Fine breakfast, with better cereal and fresh fruit than one usually finds. Two very nice pools with good sized jacuzzi. Large rooms which were well outfitted. Friendly staff. The hotel's leafy green setting in the picture is deceptive. It is just behind the QEW and in an urban shopping area with considerable traffic. If you are in the region to go cycling, you must first work your way through 20 minutes of city streets before getting to quieter routes. The hotel's common areas are somewhat worn and in need of an updating.
The staff is very friendly. The breakfast was great. The room was very spacious and clean. There's an odor that is likely the cleaning solution or some kind of deodorizer. It's not a dirty smell but not a great one either. Luckily the windows open so we were able to tolerate the odor by leaving the windows open.
Room was very clean and had the basics plus a few extras, like an iron and ironing board, hairdryer and coffee maker. Staff was competent. I didn't realize it was right by a major highway that was fairly noisy, but since it was winter, my windows were closed and it wasn't a problem. Summer would be more of a problem though.
My car was parking right beside my door. It's convinent for us.
We did not stay there and had to cancel but you guys will not refund us. Never using Kayak again.
Room was very clean. Continental breakfast was provided at no cost. Attached Griddles Restaurant was not operational at this time. (Posted for sale or lease.)
The stay was ok. There is a lot space needed to be improved.Actually, I think, this is motel standard, not hotel price. The bed is too hard, and too much noise and too high price which doesnt macth the facility and service.
Upon arrival we found out that the resturant was shut down therefor we had to drive fto get some breakfast
There was no extra charge for us to have our small dog with us. This means a great deal. We enjoyed the breakfast. It met all our expectations, however, the placement of our room, which was the first one off the lobby, was a little noisy with the door opening and closing often.
Good service on the desk High speed internet signal was weak.
Staff was really nice. Young man (university student) was very attentive, addressed our needs and was very helpful. Bathroom door sticks tight and we had to break down the door to let a 5 year old out of the bathroom. Definitely a safety concern. Guests before us left food in the room and although the room was very, very clean we were put off by the food that was left and not cleaned up by housekeeping. We were also annoyed that the IHOP was closed and Kayak did not mention this on the website when booking.
The front desk staff was very nice and polite I have no complaints
Hotel service was courteous and helpful. Room was spotless and everything worked well. The restaurant (attached to, but not Holiday Inn) was not clean - tables sticky, coffee pot stained and not clean, salt shaker chipped, etc. Food was good (breakfast) and service prompt and friendly.
The most comfortable bed and pillows ever in a hotel. Where do you buy them? The heater in our room had a fan that was very loud which woke us up in the middle of the night.
it was clean and quiet, the Timothy's coffee stand was great & the pool and bosling alley were fun
Beds & pillows very comfortable, clean, quite.
location more detail cleaning in the rooms
The room was clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly. The fitness room and pool were good. The coffee shop in the hotel was very nice and the breakfast was good also. There was construction going on outside of our room and we could hear a lot of noise from it.
The staff were very friendly and the room was clean. We enjoyed the hot tub & pool.
The pool and hot tub area was nice and cozy and easily accessible. The vouchers for a full breakfast in the restaurant was a nice surprise, we expected a continental breakfast. The view of the rooftop below.
service, cleaning, and price anything
nice ambiance. great staff, clean and neat. bathrooms dont have exhaust...hence foggy after shower and smelly after u know what ....
- Friendly staff went above requirements to accommodate my request for an early check-in time which resulted in made my arrival stress- free! I requested a "quiet" room and got it. The bed as top-notch for comfort. None.
They hosted several High School Crew Teams from out of town, and the Crew teams were VERY WELL behaved & the staff very accomodating to all the athletes! Short on electrical outlets in the room.
It was situated between Hamilton, Niagara Falls and Niagara on the lake, which was the three places we needed to go. They kindly booked our reservation for the restaurant in Niagara falls. The host did not know where we could have go for a breakfast with espresso, saying that Canadians do not drink that. We did not find a restaurant to get that, maybe he was right for St-Catharines.
The bed was uncomfortable ,pillows too fluffy. The ceiling had water damage, bathroom fan didn't work with mold around. The room wasn't clean chair had a spill on it not wiped.
Good value for the room only $116
Hotel room was bright and clean. I was very concerend before checking in as expereince in prior Days Inn in Port Huron Michigan the day before was quite different. I woudl definitely stay here again.
Might be tricky to find hotel - entrance has changed from highway and construction going on right now on highway.
Attended a conference.
I need working wifi when I stay at a motel, and this hotel didn't have it. Everything else was adequate, but they claim to have Internet/wifi and it was unusable. I'm fairly certain it's a modem issue, but when I called the front desk the reply I got was, "Well, it's working for me". Rather than admitting they have outdated or non-functioning wifi, they tried to imply it was my laptop or user error that was the problem.
no wireless even though the room suggests its complimentry
A very good experience making the commencement of our visit to Canada memorable. The continental breakfast was an additional bonus. No lift to upper floor.
It's proximity to my work !!! The wireless connection was so poor I could not long on the server.
The room was very clean and the staff was excellant.
We were allowed to check in early for a wedding, guest services even googled directions to the wedding location. Room had fridge, micro, ironing etc and a very good breakfast. A budget hotel located conveniently for biking the Welland Canal and to visit the wine district. Bathroom was tired, could benefit from reno.
This cute little inn was very quiet, despite being above a restaurant. There were was plenty to do in the area, with a lovely icecream shop just next door along with a few bars. There was a park and harbor just within walking distance. Only a 30 minute drive from the Falls.

Live 8's 20th in Illinois
Page Tools
Following the example of Live 8's triumphant return to Philadelphia, Farm Aid co-founders Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp have announced they'll stage the concert's 20th anniversary in Illinois, where it all began.
Starting with a week of events in Chicago, the fund-raising musicfest will take place on September 18 at the Tweeter Centre in Tinley Park, Illinois, urging Americans to buy food from family farms.
The show will feature Nelson, Mellencamp, Neil Young and Dave Matthews, plus other artists to be announced.
Farm Aid began in 1985 when Nelson, inspired by comments from Bob Dylan at Live Aid, hosted a daylong music benefit for family farmers in Champaign, Illinois.
Over the years, Farm Aid has raised more than $US27 million ($A36.15 million) to help American farmers.

In 1945, at the age of nine, Robert Lynch, FAIA, contracted polio. Later, while receiving daily therapy, his parents arranged for him to go back to school by hiring a full-time attendant. He dressed the boy, carried him to breakfast, drove him to school, carried him to class, drove him home for aquatic therapy and exercises, then put him to bed. This was Lynch's routine from fifth grade until he graduated from high school. Wheelchair accessibility in public buildings was virtually nonexistent, especially in public schools, so being carried was essential.
By the time he was ready for college, Lynch could lift himself up and down stairs by wearing hip-length steel braces and using crutches. Yet it was a daily struggle. This influenced his decision to go to Notre Dame in Indiana. After all, the Midwest was flat, wasn't it?
Not so. The architecture, not the land, was his Everest. Most of Lynch's classes were on the second and third floors of buildings that had no elevators or ramps. Even getting to the front door meant painfully negotiating a flight of stairs.
I've begun this final Perspective column as AIA President with a story about one person's heroic struggle to lead a mobile and productive life. Lynch's story is not unique. His narrative belongs to all of us. We all began life by being carried and cared for. It's also the future that many of us are headed for. Architecture can help us into that future, or it can be our hell.
Thanks to modern medicine, we live longer. This means that more of us are likely to be struck by one of the illnesses that befall the elderly. The good news: We'll most likely be kept alive. The not-so-good news: An increasing number of us who do pull through will no longer be able to live in our homes. The only choice—if we can afford it—is assisted living or a nursing home. Otherwise, it's move in with the kids—if they have the space.
And what about those lucky enough to stay healthy?
We'll work longer. That's already happening. Retirement at 60 or 65—who can afford it? (But how will we get to the workplace? And what will we find when we get there?) These are questions about how we embrace the whole community; these are questions about architecture. They reveal another aspect of how design either facilitates or obstructs inclusiveness.
For as long as I can remember, conversations about inclusiveness have focused on gender and race. These issues are important. Despite a lot of talk at every level of the profession—from the schools to the workplace to our own initiatives at the AIA—we still have a long way to go to embrace the gifts of talented men and women who could have a tremendous impact on how our profession is perceived and how it serves our clients.
Yet issues of race and gender are not the complete picture of what it means to be inclusive, whether as a society or a profession. They are important, yes, but are arguably subsets of what should be a much broader discussion of how we as a profession accommodate all of those who have the will and the talent to lead meaningful lives that contribute, such as Lynch's, to the good of the community, however those contributions are made.
Inclusiveness, whether it has to do with the ability to enter a profession or navigate a steep flight of stairs, is not an act of charity or a gift we give to others; it's something we do for ourselves. At some point in all of our lives, we literally or figuratively arrive at the bottom of a steep flight of stairs. The only way forward will be to go up. But what if we can't begin that climb? Who will carry us?
Our work, and who we are as a profession, should and must be an example to others. Whether it's extending the life of architecture already built, committing ourselves to a model of the profession that mirrors the society we serve, or using our experience and skills to shape welcoming environments that celebrate the dignity of each one of us—old, young, male, female, straight, gay, the physically challenged, the economically disadvantaged, and those of different ethnicities—architects and architecture have a unique role to play in bringing us together.
If we choose to fully engage the world as it is, if we grasp the privilege and responsibility of a profession dedicated to service, a great future lies before us.
I want to show my gratitude to you, the members of this great organization, for the honor of serving you this past year as president. What I have learned has been life changing. In the midst of one of the greatest economic challenges most of us have ever experienced, your courage, talent, and compassion inspire respect and great hope. Thank you.
Clark D. Manus, FAIA, 2011 President

JBL L60 T speakers bought them new in the 80s I believe anyone have an opinion on them, Two way speaker with nice iron stands kept in box for years.
Follow Ups:
These are very nice speakers. And they look nice too, that is if your's are still in good shape.
I had a pair of these for many years in near mint condition. They sound better than the JBL Northridge 8-inch three ways that my son has, and also had a much more balanced musical presentation than a pair of the Studio 310's that I owned for a short time.
I ended up selling my pair locally last year because they weren't being used anymore and were taking up space. I now use Focal Chorus 826V's which are in another league compared the the L60's. They also cost 2 grand so you would expect better performance.
I used to be a die-hard JBL fan but not so much anymore.
For me JBL will always be an important historical marker in the evolution of speakers. I think they were among the first to really promote and produce tweeters that gave speakers speed and detail. Their 075 bullet, the 175 potato masher, and the still highly sought after king of tweeters the 375. I have a sentimental nattachment to mine which are from 1959 which I inhereted from my father. I do have a second pair that I think would benefit from a crossover modification, yielding more bass from those big alnico woofers.

Genomic data allow the large-scale manual or semi-automated assembly of metabolic network reconstructions, which provide highly curated organism-specific knowledge bases. Although several genome-scale network reconstructions describe Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolism, they differ in scope and content, and use different terminologies to describe the same chemical entities. This makes comparisons between them difficult and underscores the desirability of a consolidated metabolic network that collects and formalizes the 'community knowledge' of yeast metabolism. We describe how we have produced a consensus metabolic network reconstruction for S. cerevisiae. In drafting it, we placed special emphasis on referencing molecules to persistent databases or using database-independent forms, such as SMILES or InChI strings, as this permits their chemical structure to be represented unambiguously and in a manner that permits automated reasoning. The reconstruction is readily available via a publicly accessible database and in the Systems Biology Markup Language (http://www.comp-sys-bio.org/yeastnet). It can be maintained as a resource that serves as a common denominator for studying the systems biology of yeast. Similar strategies should benefit communities studying genome-scale metabolic networks of other organisms.

Good price, small but adequate room. Good value for an overnight stop on your way to somewhere else. 2 rooms sharing a common entrance - and the outer door didn't shut properly without being slammed shut. Security bolt on room door was falling off, so nit much use.
1 bed almost broken, fan in bathroom didn't work, 1light in ceiling non function
The location was good for our purpose. It was right off the highway. For others it may not be so great as it has nothing around it. The hotel rooms had a funny smell. It was definitely dated in decor and one of the shabbiest hotels we have stayed in. Accordingly the price for the room was high and in the fine print they charge $10 per child so it added to expense.
Staff very helpful A bit expensive for location and year of the motel
Small roadside motel outside of Sherbrooke. Some road noise but rooms were clean, water was hot, tv and fridge worked. Main downside was the beds were very firm. For the low price it was good value.
It was clean. We took it because it was cheap (but it ended not being so because charged more to get 2 beds). The beds were hard. We knew it was out of the way but took it for rice but then price a lot more for 2 beds.
It was very clean even if the room was very small and no table to work with your computer.It met my expectations for that day. Also the clean pool was a plus.The price was good for what I had. work space

Mike Bossy 36x24 Photo
January 24, 1981, Mike Bossy of the New York Islanders earned a place in the NHL record book by becoming only the second player in history following his hero Maurice Richard to score 50 goals in 50 games. He accomplished the feat by blowing a shot past Ron Grahame goaltender of the Quebec Nordiques. During his 10-year career Bossy scored 50 or more goals in nine consecutive seasons a record that remains unbroken. This unsigned Mike Bossy photo is an incredible must own photo and is perfect for any true Islanders' fan.

Chevrolet Repair Questions? Ask a Chevy Mechanic for Answers ASAP
i was driving home and my 2003 s10 2.2 just died. i smelled a lot of gas.i thougt my timing had slipped so i took it apat and check it. timing was good but with 150k on ichanged it.i have no codes.i have compression. ihave fire,.new wires,plugs,cam sensor.crank sensor.had the ecm checked out fine. it is flooding the engine with gas, even in the oil. i am stummed.do you think my computer has crapped out?
Welcome! My name is XXXXX XXXXX I will do my best to assist you with this problem.Ask me about added features such as phone contact anytime if you wish !
do you have a test light ?
its flooding so bad the cylinders will almost be filled with gas ?
Yes is full.and I do have a test light.
ok disconnect all 4 fuel injectors
you will notice all 4 injectors one wire on each is GRAY on each injector
connect your test light clip to BATTERY POWER when cranking it over does the NON grey wire blink your test light or is your test light lite up solid the whole time and NO blinking ?
we checked them and they are working.
it is lighting up.
solid ? correct ? test light connected to positive battery power on all 4 injector wires the NON grey wires when you turn the key on light it up solid ? or solid only when cranking ?
Ricky im sorry for all the questions but I need to be sure to give you the correct answer
solid when cranking.
ok Ricky if when the key is OFF the test light is NOT lit up the wiring to the injectors should be ok
seeing that light solid is showing the computer is NOT pulsing in the fuel and flooding the engine
this can be caused from either a bad computer or a bad ignition module a bad TPS or a bad ECT sensor
if you unplug the coolant temp sensor and the TPS connector will the light still be lit up solid ?
why am i getting any codes.i have a obd11 and it never picked up a code.it said dtc on powertrain has no code.when the engine stalled it made a faint clicking noise.and was smoking behind the engine.can the computer be tested?
the only way it can be tested is in the truck with a scan tool connected to the truck to see what the data list is doing and reading
can you try unplugging the ECT and the TPS and see if the light is still solid ?
if so when the key is on and the light is solid then the odds are the computer is bad with an outside chance of a bad ignition module
i had the ecm tested it's good. i hope it's not in the head.i will keep trying and will let you know.thanks
Ricky the cylinder head should not cause the test light to light up solid with the key on it should be off then when cranking it should blink the test light not on solid

Norway's $US650 billion sovereign wealth fund has decided the time is right to enter the US and is closing in on its first real estate investment there as the US market struggles with stagnant prices.
The fund will invest in the US "by the end of next year at the latest," Trond Grande, deputy chief executive at Norges Bank Investment Management, said. "The US is the largest real estate market so if you want to have a global portfolio you must have exposure [there]."
In 2010, Norway's sovereign wealth fund gained approval to invest as much as 5 per cent of its capital in real estate as it aims for a return of 4 per cent. It has since bought properties in Paris and London for about $US2 billion and real estate accounted for 0.3 per cent of its holdings at the end of June this year.
The fund is preparing its move as the recovery in US real estate values has "lost steam" in the past three quarters, Moody's said on September 13.
While values have recouped 42 per cent since bottoming in January 2010, they are still 22.5 per cent below the December 2007 peak on the Moody's/RCA Commercial Property Price index.
The Urban Land Institute last month cut its forecast for US commercial real estate sales by 12 per cent to $US748 billion until 2014 because economic projections are "down considerably." Deals will be $US223 billion this year, $US250 billion next year and $US275 billion in 2014, according to a ULI survey released last week. In March, sales were forecast at $US250 billion this year and $US290 billion next year.
Some financial centres in the US, such as Manhattan's Plaza district, an area near Central Park that commands the nation's highest office rents, are facing falling occupancy rates as banks reduce office space. The availability rate for offices in the Manhattan Plaza sub-market reached 12.3 per cent in August, a two-year high, according to data from Colliers International. It was 10.5 per cent in the third quarter of last year.
Norway's fund, which gets its revenue from taxes on oil and gas, ownership of petroleum fields and dividends from a 67 per cent stake in Statoil, will spread its real estate investments over time as it builds a global portfolio.

Instead of introducing austerity, however, Chancellor Gerhard Schröder simply launched an effort to change the rules. New documents show just how key his role was in weakening the Stability Pact.

Anyone know any flash compilers I can use with BackTrack that understand ActionScript3? It would be nice to be able to do all my development under linux.

By Kevin McCoy, USA TODAY
The Securities and Exchange Commission's internal watchdog on Tuesday recommended more than 50 steps to strengthen the agency's enforcement and compliance divisions and prevent a repeat of the failures that let Bernard Madoff's Ponzi scam continue operating for years.
SEC Inspector General H. David Kotz, who earlier this month detailed the agency's mishandling of repeated tips and warnings about Madoff, said the changes are needed to rebuild the ability and image of the nation's top securities regulator.
"The strength of our capital markets relies on investor confidence, which in turn depends on vigorous regulatory oversight," Kotz's office wrote in one of two reports that outlined training and investigative recommendations. "Investors will only be confident in entrusting their savings with these entities when they have confidence that the SEC's oversight is vigorous and competent."
READ THE REPORT: Improvements needed
Kotz issued the recommendations after his investigation concluded that the SEC missed at least six chances to stop a multibillion-dollar scam that victimized thousands of charities, celebrities and average investors. The SEC assigned inexperienced and undertrained staffers to investigate Madoff, focused the probes too narrowly and failed to seek independent verification for suspicious explanations from the financier, the investigation found.
Madoff pleaded guilty to fraud and other charges in March. He's now serving a 150-year prison sentence.
READ THE REPORT: Madoff case
The changes proposed by Kotz would supplement new protocols ordered by SEC Chairman Mary Schapiro, who took office after Madoff's arrest last December. The recommendations, 21 for the agency's enforcement division and 37 for its office of compliance inspections, include:
•Establishing formal guidance for evaluating complaints about Ponzi schemes and other illegal scams, and training SEC staffers on how to investigate them.
•Subjecting all complaints and tips to reviews by at least two people with experience in the subject area before deciding against taking further action.
•Training staffers on what resources and expertise are available from specialized SEC units, and how and when to seek assistance from those units.
•Creating a protocol for screening news articles, industry journals and other sources for potential leads to securities law violations by broker-dealers and investment advisers.
SEC officials concurred with all the proposals. Kotz gave the agency 45 days to provide written corrective plans to implement the changes.

The Australian dollar jumped half a cent to a new four-month high in a late rally on Tuesday, even as currency strategists expect it to slip below US90¢ in this quarter.
The Australian dollar soared as high as US93.29¢ as trading commenced in Europe, taking it to its highest since late November. The Aussie also gained against other currencies and was in late trade fetching 95.79 yen and 67.79 euro cents.
The currency, which has risen by more than 3.5 per cent against the US dollar and the euro this year after a 14 per cent plunge last year, has defied the bears this year amid growing optimism about the domestic economy.
The Aussie spiked above US93 cents as London traders came online, with many buying the currency to cover short positions ahead of the latest official employment figures to be released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics on Thursday, ThinkForex senior markets analyst Matt Simpson said.
"That number is expected to show the labour market is improving, providing further support for the dollar," Mr Simpson said.
"If the jobs numbers disappoint then it could be the end of the mini-bullrush."
While Mr Simpson expects the dollar to continue to rise this week boosted by short-covering he still predicts the dollar could end 2014 as low as US80¢.
ANZ Banking Group senior currency strategist Daniel Been said China had a influence in the Australian dollar's spike.
"The dollar has traded stronger as the US dollar weakened broadly in early London trade, but stronger commodity and equity market performances in China today helped it out-perform on the crosses," he said.
Weaknesses in other currencies such as the US dollar and euro have also given the local dollar a boost.
The shift in sentiment towards the Australian dollar has been reflected in the fall in the number of short positions taken against the currency, according to the latest figures from the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), as expectations increased that the exchange rate could rise further in the short time.
The CFTC data from last week showed that speculators had cut net shorts in the currency to 4880 contracts. It was the lowest level of net shorts since traders had turned bearish against the Australian dollar in mid-May last year. The short positions mean more investors have been betting on further falls in the currency as compared to a rise.
"The futures market is much closer to a neutral position than it was before. A lot of this move up in Aussie has been a short squeeze rather than people necessarily going long the currency," Rochford Capital's director Thomas Averill said.
"We've seen a lot of the short squeeze moves completed now and for the Aussie to punch on, you're going to have to see the futures market take up a net long position. ... Speculators might be happy to get out of a short, but are they willing to go long?"
Despite the Australian dollar's current levels, forecasters continue to expect the currency to edge lower through the year, according to median forecasts data from Bloomberg. The slide is expected to come while the Reserve Bank keeps the cash rate on hold and as the normalisation of monetary policy in the US strengthens the American dollar.
With financial markets already pricing in an end of quantitative easing, possibly by this year, a sustained rally in the US dollar was more likely to come from a rise in US interest rates, analysts said.
Even so, the US Federal Reserve would be cautious about normalisation monetary policy too aggressively, especially while the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan continue to pursue looser policies, as such a move would lead to a sharp rise in the greenback, which in turn could hurt the economic recovery, Mr Averill said.
"The Federal Reserve doesn't necessarily want to be leading the pack too aggressively in the tightening of interest rates," he said.
"It could trigger a really big bid for the greenback and although the Federal Reserve officially denies ever targeting currency weakness as a way of stimulating the economy, they will not want to see a rapid appreciation."
Currency strategists expect the exchange rate to ease to US88¢ in the second-quarter of this year, US87¢ in the third-quarter and US87¢ in the fourth-quarter, according media forecasts compiled by Bloomberg.
The outlook for remained mostly unchanged from one month ago, apart from the fourth-quarter estimate, which rose by US1¢ from US86¢, the data showed. The 2015 outlook remained the same at US86¢.

President Elect Quits
President Elect Barack Obama has quit his new job, even before taking office.
"I knew this country was in a bad state," he said. "I just had no idea how bad."
A source close to the President Elect said that he was shocked by what he saw when he visited dead duck President George W Bush at the White House.
"It wasn't just the state of the place," he said. "We expected that. The half-empty pizza boxes and beer cans in the Oval Office. The way all the computers in the communications suite were logged into porn sites. It was like a frat house. But nothing that couldn't get cleaned up in a week or so."
What especially perturbed the visitors, said the source, was how nothing seems to have been done around the place for months, maybe years.
"In the Oval Office was one of those toy basketball hoops - you know, the kind that makes a cheering noise when you manage to throw something in it," he claimed. "All around the hoop were balled up pieces of paper that turned out to be CIA, NSA and Pentagon briefings dating back to 2000."
The biggest problem, said the source, is that Bush won't stop being President. "Even though no-one likes him, even though he's acknowledged as the worst President in history, he keeps doing stuff and just making it worse. He gave up long ago trying to fix problems like his wars, drugs, the tanking economy and the ecological crisis. So he's spending his last days like a petulant toddler on PCP. He's putting oil refineries in national parks. He's pardoning murderers. Thanks to Bush, America is already in the shitter and now he's trying to flush it."
According to Obama's retinue, the final straw came when the President Elect was briefed by senior people within the intelligence community, the State Department and the Treasury. "That's when we found out that - bad as we thought it was - Bush and his cronies had still been lying to us. It's so, so much worse."
According to insiders, at the end of the meeting Obama commented: "I love America, but I'm not cleaning that up!"

I'm not quite sure what David Cameron is up to. But whatever it is, it seems to be working for him. Of the three main parties, only the Conservatives seem happy with their leader. Labour continually worries that Ed Miliband is "weird". The Lib Dems wish they'd never heard the name Nick Clegg. All Cameron has to do is sit back and let them fret about an upcoming general election that they are clearly dreading already, and leave that to tell its own sorry story.
Still, the fact remains, even with the left-of-centre vote divided between Labour and the Lib Dems, the Conservatives couldn't achieve a parliamentary majority. Now, in theory at least, the left-of-centre vote is less divided than it has been since Labour's 1997 landslide, and the right-of-centre vote is divided instead – although Ukip is attracting Labour and Lib Dem voters too. Perhaps Cameron is more worried about Ukip than he's letting on. But I suspect that he Ukip as an opportunity for the Conservatives rather than a problem, a party whose presence alone helps them to get a lot of heavy lifting done.
In Europe, thanks to Ukip, Cameron's troubles are pretty much over. In fact, having positioned himself as a bit of a thorn in the European side, Cameron can now shake his head regretfully and tell his fellow leaders that he did warn everyone about the rise of populism, and goodness knows he's sympathetic because he has plenty of that kind of trouble in his own back yard.
For the time being, at least, all enthusiasm for "ever-closer union" is on the wane. Cameron is known to want the phrase removed from the EU treaty, and no doubt a lot of other European leaders will now be seeing exactly where he's coming from. By next May, Cameron should be able to promise a fairly ambitious renegotiation of Britain's EU terms if his party is re-elected, safe in the knowledge that he can deliver quite a lot of it prior to an in-out referendum. Whereas, even for the most rabid of anti-Europeans, a vote for Ukip will still look like an empty protest unlikely to achieve anything in the way of actual change.
If anything, the rise of Ukip has handed the Tories their first opportunity to look like the party of sensible, lukewarm, British Europeans for many decades. But it could turn out to be the gift that keeps on giving. Cameron has worked hard to reposition his party as socially progressive. It's very handy, from his point of view, that another party has come along to be the standard-bearer of racism, sexism and homophobia, because the implication is that because racists, sexists and homophobes are looking elsewhere, he's been successful, and his own party is no longer associated with such things. One of the few policies that Cameron made sure he was personally associated with was gay marriage. Now he can simply rely on the media – and Ukip councillors – to do any further work that's needed to advertise the idea that there's a new nasty party in town.
And actually, there is a bit of a pattern emerging. Maybe it's dumb luck. But Cameron is starting to look like a man who has worked out how to be the still centre of every storm, waiting for his opportunity to come when it has passed. When he does intervene, in any case, that intervention – the latest being his defence of expenses princess Maria Miller – is pretty often quickly followed by a U-turn. Cameron made many U-turns early in his administration. Increasingly, however, he simply stays away from possible trouble altogether.
It's easy, in hindsight, to suppose that Cameron knew exactly what he was doing when he fell over himself to assure Clegg that his historic opportunity to educate the British public about the joys of coalition government had come. Certainly, "coalition" is a word that now trips off people's tongues without a second thought. But it's rarely a very positive reference. That works for Cameron. No one talks about the Cameron government, or the Cameron administration.
But what's fascinating is how closely Lib Dems are associated with so many of the least popular of Cameron's party's policies. You'd think that Clegg had insisted himself on the hike in tuition fees, that Vince Cable personally decided to run a two-for-one offer on post office shares, or that Shirley Williams had picked up a crowbar and forced the NHS to open up further to private markets. Keen to flag up the tiny positive influence they were having on huge, unpopular pieces of legislation, leading Lib Dems became the faces most associated with those unpopular policies.
Not that Cameron minds much who is taking the heat, as long as it's not him. His administration is highly departmental. George Osborne is hated for "the cuts". Michael Gove is hated for whatever it is he's supposed to have done to ruin education. Iain Duncan Smith is hated for the bedroom tax, for food banks and for the disasters of universal credit. Chris Grayling is hated for cutting legal aid. Jeremy Hunt is hated just for being Jeremy Hunt. Nobody seems to hate Theresa May, except the police. But, it was very important to Cameron, with his "women's problems", that he should have a powerful, female cabinet member who is seen as successful. It's interesting that the Home Office, usually the focus of all controversy around immigration, should be so curiously absent from the Ukip-led debate on immigration. That leaves high levels of immigration as something that continues to be seen as Labour's legacy. It's just one more area in which Cameron has managed to benefit while excrement gets thrown all around him.
The economy is on the rise. Unemployment is going down, including youth unemployment. Crime is down. The Conservatives even have some fairly persuasive evidence that they are tough on tax avoiders, which refreshes the memory about how lax Labour were on this. For a man whose former spin doctor has for weeks been in the criminal dock alongside his erstwhile great friend, Cameron has managed things very well indeed. Even the hacking scandal has become something others are expected to fix, with all eyes on the press and its latest pitch for self-regulation.
One can criticise the nature of the recovery, the insecurity of working lives, the dizzying levels of inequality till the cows come home. But all Cameron has to do for the next year is wait. His government's early legislation may have been unpopular enough to trigger riots. But those are a memory now, increasing numbers of people having swapped anger for antidepressants. The Conservatives haven't introduced much legislation this year, and no doubt they will bring in little during the next. Cameron can afford to stop talking, or to talk, at least, as little as possible. Everyone else – Miliband, Farage, Clegg – has to keep on talking because they are all under pressure to perform. They used to call Blair Teflon Tony. Cameron seems to be made of something just as hard to breach – sheer nothingness.

Dear sunshinecaregiver,
When my family member had those symptoms the stents were blocked and he was becoming septic from cholangitis... .so the blood work should reveal if that is the case and it can be treated successfully with antibiotics. He had taken a train trip to see his son and we had noticed some changes in behavior prior to his leaving. They got worse when he arrived in Wisconsin but his son didn't take him to ER as advised while he was there. Sepsis set in and he was lucky to have made it out of the ICU but unbeknownst to us this had been coming on for 10-14 days. We now know to check for fever, disorientation and other signs of infection. Low doses of Gemzar and Cisplatin was very well tolerated in our case and bought him a year of quality time. I wish you and your mom the best. Take care and you have a great source of information and support from Marions and others on this site.

Dangerous waves expected this weekend
Experts are advising anyone going to local beaches this weekend to use caution.
There is a threat of extreme wave conditions for this weekend along the coast in Humboldt, Mendocino and Del Norte Counties. Waves about 20 feet high are expected, and U.S. Coast Guard officials say you should avoid any activities on or near the ocean. They say if you do go to the beach, make sure you do not go alone. If you go in the water, they say to make sure your partner is on the beach with a communication device handy in case you need help.
"The ocean is very unpredictable. As much caution as you take, the only real way to ensure you don't get in trouble is to stay out of it. So we would suggest if you do go to the beach to stay well above the high water line," said Boatswain's Mate Victoria Taylor of the U.S. Coast Guard

State and Local Authorities have been busy in Gloversville with two recent sex cases involving adults and children.
Acting from a tip to the "Internet Crimes Against Children Tip Line," the New York State Police arrested a 32-year old Gloversville man for committing sexual acts on a 5-year old child and videotaping the acts, then sending it over the internet.
Using a search warrant at his Gloversville home, the New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation in Mayfield and the City of Gloversville Police department arrested Richard Dence Jr. (upper left) without incident. He is charged with four felonies including Criminal Sex Act, Use of a Child in a Sexual Performance, Promoting a Sexual Performance by a Child, Possession of a Sexual Performance by a Child and Endangering the Welfare of a Child, a Class-A Misdemeanor, police said.
Dence was arraigned in the City of Gloversville Court and sent to the Fulton County Jail in lieu of $50,000 cash bail or $100,000 bond. No return date has been set. The investigation is still ongoing and further charges could be filed.
Police say Dence committed various sex acts and photographed and uploaded them to the internet to send them out, police said.
In another case, Gloversville Police Detectives arrested Scott VanEtten (left), 33, of 64 Second Ave. in Gloversville on numerous counts of Sexual Offenses with three minors.
Police say that this summer VanEtten had sexual contact with three boys, ages 7, 9 & 14, including having sexual intercourse with the 14-year old. He is charged with two counts of Criminal Sexual Act (1st Degree, Class B Felony) and two counts of Sexual Abuse (1st Degree, Class D Felony).
VanEtten engaged in such acts at various locations in the City of Gloversville at least five times, police said. VanEtten was subsequently charged with five additional counts of Criminal Sexual Act (2nd Degree, Class D Felony).
VanEtten was processed and arraigned by Gloversville City Court Judge Traci Dimezza and sent to the Fulton County Correctional Facility on $50,000 cash bail or $100,000 bond. The investigation remains open and additional charges are pending.

Thank you Lisa. That helps. It seems strange, though, that that page would

LIFE has returned to normal for residents of Royal Wootton Bassett since repatriations stopped going through the town a year ago.
All eyes fell on the town when the Union Flag in the High Street was taken down, blessed, and handed over to Oxfordshire during a sunset ceremony organised by the town council exactly 12 months ago yesterday.
It came after the decision to close RAF Lyneham and move repatriations to RAF Brize Norton in Carterton, but Wootton Bassett was in the spotlight again in October when it was made 'royal' for the respect it showed to fallen servicemen.
Maurice Baker, president of the town's branch of the Royal British Legion, said: "It is very quiet, we are back to normal as we always wanted to be, but we do miss it. Carterton are doing it their way in the same way that we did it our way. It is difficult to compare because everything that we did was unplanned.
"We didn't have a chance to prepare for anything, everything just evolved. Everything was here in Wootton Bassett, the church was in the right place and the war memorial was in the centre of the High Street. Cafes and pubs offered their facilities too. It just happened.
"The repatriations are missed. I often see people up in the High Street I saw when I was helping out. They all say although it is nice we are back to normal, hearing about it going on somewhere else doesn't seem right."
The town's flag party lowered the flag to solemn performances of Sunset and Evening by Wootton Bassett Brass on August 31 last year. The flag was blessed and folded, and the national anthem was played to end the service.
The flag was left overnight on the altar of St Bartholomew's Church and the following morning it was transported to Oxfordshire, where it was handed over by then mayor Paul Heaphy.
Johnathan Bourne, town clerk, said: "Most of us have a deep-seated admiration for the bravery and professionalism of our armed forces, admiration which only grows when you have the opportunity of working with them.
"Although every repatriation was tragic and painful, it was a privilege for us to pay our respects. For me personally, organising the Sunset Ceremony was a great honour, providing one last opportunity for everyone to come together and show how much we cared."
Anne Bevis, treasurer for the town's RBL branch and its former repatriation liason officer, said: "People will never forget what happened in the four-and-a-half years because it is part of Wootton Bassett history.
"Carterton are doing it differently to what we did. It wouldn't have been a good idea if they kept exactly what we had done. They have done it their way."
Detailed investigations and design work on the military technical training centre due to move into Lyneham will start this month.

Mentoring Program
Created by the Smeal Alumni Society Board and the Alumni Relations Team, the college's Mentoring Program facilitates meaningful and mutually beneficial mentoring relationships between alumni and students. The mentoring relationship is a one-year commitment between the student (protégé) and the alum (mentor).
Through the program, student protégés learn about various career paths and professional fields and enhance their personal and professional networks, while mentors experience the satisfaction of guiding the next generation of Penn Staters. Mentoring pairs are encouraged to discuss topics such as major exploration, internship or career planning, leadership development, or the college-to-career transition.
"I gained so much guidance and wisdom from my mentor! My mentor far exceeded all of my expectations."
– Protégé, Spring 2013
"The Alumni Mentoring Program has been an excellent resource to me…Each time I gained a new skill, such as resume tips, new business development, evaluating job offers and the transition into the workplace. I definitely recommend this program for students looking to expand their network and develop professionally!"
– Protégé, Spring 2013
"The Smeal Mentoring Program was a great experience, as I really enjoyed providing guidance to and learning from my mentee. Smeal provided the right tools and recommendations on how to maintain a beneficial mentorship. Despite the school year ending, my mentee and I plan to continue our mentorship through the summer. Overall, really enjoyed it!"
– Mentor, Spring 2013

Monarch Butterfly Under Water
What effect does water have on a butterfly? They live through major storms - how? Their scales repel water. They breathe through spiracles. Surface tension keeps water from entering their spiracles and trachea. See spiracles, trachea, and butterflies under water in this video. Many people report seeing Monarch and other species of butterflies lying on top of water before flying into the air again.

TEMECULA - Santa Fe High School wrestler Joey Davis didn't get angry. He just got even in the only way he knows how - pure domination.
Davis, angry after an official's decsion cost him a chance to become a four-time CIF-Southern Section divisional champion, followed up last week's disappointment by cruising to the 160-pound title during Saturday's CIF-SS Masters Meet at Temecula Valley High School.
Davis, the Chiefs' first three-time Masters champion, also was named Upper Weight MVP after scoring two victories by pin and three by technical fall, including beating Martin Luther King's Harland Kistler, 23-6, in the final.
La Habra's Elder Cruz, who won a Southern Division title last week, was second at 195, with Santa Fe's Kioni Villalobos placing fifth at 113. All earn spots to next weekend's CIF State championships, scheduled for Friday and Saturday at Rabobank Arena in Bakersfield.
Davis is making the trip north for the fourth consecutive season.
"There was a little anger there (this weekend)," Davis said. "I felt what happened to be (at the Eastern Division championships) was (bull). I didn't knock (Agustin Marquez of Shadow Hills) out.
"It just made me more hungry for this weekend, to dominate. I had two pins and three techs, so I was able to dominate."
Davis toyed with Kistler in the final, using four takedowns and one near-fall for a 14-3 lead after the first period and three takedowns and a near-fall to finish off the match at 1:58 of the second period.
He also beat Laguna Hills' Jason Newcomer, 20-4, in the semifinals.
"Everyone knows I'm a takedown artist," Davis said. "I really worked on my `top' game. I just worked on getting better."
Cruz also was solid, going 4-1 with a one win by technical fall and a major decison. But he came up short in the final, losing 7-3 to state No. 1 Robert Marchese of Oak Hills in the final.
Marchese, the top seed, got ahead early, using a takedown in the first period before scoring an escape and takedown in the second for a 5-0 advantage.
Cruz, who advanced to the finals with a 10-6 victory over Alta Loma's Anthony Flores in the semifinals, fought back to cut it to 7-3 with an escape in the second and two more in the third. But Marchese thwarted every move in the final minute to win.
"We wrestled Marchese before," La Habra coach Dwayne DeNolf said. "He's a tough competitor. He changed up his game plan, so basically we were like wrestling ourselves and just beat us. There's not much you can do.
"We worked really hard and (Cruz) has done a great job. It's always nice to go to state, so it's nice to be going back to the show."
Villalobos is making a return trip north after advancing as a freshman in 2009.
The senior, after losing by fall to Anaheim Canyon's Matt Nader in the second round, rebounded to win five of his last six to finish fifth. He beat La Quinta's George Torres by default in the fifth-place match.
"He had a great weekend," Santa Fe coach Sal Garcia said. "He wrestled hard. He's been dealing with some injuries, but he came out and wrestled.
"His goal was to qualify, and he definitely did what he needed to do to qualify. He ran into a good kid in the second round. But put his head together and won the next four or five matches to qualify and take fifth."

A GALA performance of the play Crown Matrimonial was held to mark the 75th anniversary season at The Oldbury Rep.
Former actors, actresses, directors, crew members, dignitaries and theatre folk from across the West Midlands descended on the Barlow Theatre to celebrate the continued success of The Rep.
At the event last Wednesday a specially made anniversary mirror was also unveiled at the theatre in memory of life long member Dr Edith Carter who died last year.
The amateur theatre, which receives no public funding, started when budding thespian Will Payne replaced the teacher of the Oldbury Technical School elocution class in 1939 due to the impending war.
The class of actors changed their name to Oldbury Technical School Players and performed plays for the local community despite air raids disrupting rehearsals and performances.
They outgrew their home at The Parish Rooms and local benefactor and councillor Charles Barlow and his wife Jessie bought a lease on Institute Hall, Langley.
Then when Spring Street Methodist Church and School went up for sale the company bought the property after a £1,700 interest free loan from Cllr Barlow who was then the companies president. The Barlow Theatre opened its doors with a triple bill of one act plays in 1956.
The anniversary play, written by Royce Royton, is based on the family traumas and betrayals which beset Edward VIII before his abdication.
Theatre publicity officer Alan Wood said: "Crown Matrimonial was attended by Sandwell's Mayor Councillor Linda Horton, Deputy Mayor Cllr Barbara Price, invited guests from local business and the community who have had a special connection with the theatre and representatives from Little Theatre Guild theatres in the West Midlands.
He added: "The performance was followed by a reception and the unveiling of a special Anniversary Mirror in memory of life-long ORP supporter Dr Edith Carter who sadly passed away last year.
"The mirror, located in the theatre's bar, was unveiled by Dr. Carter's daughters Christine Mason and Patti Simonson."
The Rep's next production is Noel Coward's This Happy Breed, the story of the Gibbon's family and their lives between the two great wars, and will start on May 10.
