Airport shuttle
The staff was very helpful with the entire check in and check out process. Our flight was changed so that required a late check out which was no problem. The bell hop and shuttle service were excellent. Nothing I "didn't like" but just wish they had better option for the included breakfast.
Nice breakfast, mall is walking distance, good gym, many restaurants in the building Can't control room temp, window doesn't open, towels are scratchy, poorly designed bathroom
Attentive staff, excellent service, great price, very good restaurant- all in all excellent experience. Not many restaurants within walking distance.
The shuttle to and from airport. Abundant breakfast included Cleanliness, Polite and efficient personal in the front office, restaurant and transportation.
This is a very clean hotel with wonderful service from the staff. However, the rooms are not much, no more than an average room @ Motel 6. And the bed is hard as a rock and small. You'll need to carry an iron, as the hotel does not have one in the room or to loan. The US embassy is only a 5 minute walk away (two blocks) and you will be with-in a 5 minute taxi ride to an incredible 3 floor mall with a 2 floor Exito supermarket and 7 screen cinema. The complementary breakfast is very good and room service is prompt. The rooms we stayed in didn't have an air conditioner, yet it's not really a problem in Bogota beings the climate is rather cool most of the time. There are many little shops near that cater to the people going to the embassy, such as photocopiers, internet shops and such. Bottom line, the hotel is overpriced but that is due to location, clean room and great service.
The rooms were nice sized with a separate sleeping area. Nice large tub was a plus but the bed was rock hard even by Bogota standards, they charged extra for Internet access, their bar was closed and their on site dining was under construction.Being right around the corner to the US Embassy might be convenient if you are working there but if you are looking to go out to eat or drink find a hotel in a different area of town there isn't anything near this hotel.
The price for this hotel was fair but I expected more in the quality in the room. The prices for food services are on the expensive side. Food in the local area is extremely inexpensive. The food at the hotel, aside from expensive, is not that good. I was very impressed by the security at the hotel. At night there is no access to guests unless they sign in with ID and with you as escort. I believe guests have to leave the hotel at a certain hour. There was an armed guard by the elevators. Aside from the cramped room and bad food, the hotel is adequate and medium to high priced for a hotel away from the water.

I received my first set of aligners this week, and so far it has been quite the experience. I decided to start invisalign treatment to fix an overjet and crowding on my bottom teeth. The overjet is really my primary concern for getting braces, and the second reason is a discolored bond that I would like to have removed and replaced with a veneer to look more natural. I am in my mid 30s and just decided to get Invisalign because I can finally afford it. :)
Attached is a photo of my teeth in the present state, and how they're projected to look after treatment. You can't see a big difference in the photo but a side by side picture is more telling, which unfortunately, I couldn't get from the doctor.
I have 25 aligners top and bottom, which is expected to be completed in on year. I have attachments on my front four teeth which makes the treatment not so invisible. It's less noticeable when I have the aligners out, but it's not often that I can do that since they have to stay in for 22 hours per day.
On the first day, my two front teeth were very sore. I suppose because they've already started moving into their new position. On the second day, my speech was impacted a lot by the aligners, and my teeth are also very sore when I chew foods. I'm so hungry during the day but I don't want to go through the hassle of removing the aligners.
I am hoping the year goes by quickly! I plan to post an update at every new set of aligners. I am scheduled to receive my 2nd and 3rd set in two weeks. Stay tuned!

Today Robert Ergonis is scheduled to be sentenced for his part in the kidnapping of his former fiance, Kumari Fulbright's ex-boyfriend.
He's the last defendant to be sentenced in the case and I thought it would be appropriate to share another side of the woman at the center of it all — Kumari Fulbright, former UA law school student and beauty queen.
During Ergonis' trial, prosecutors Michael Jette and Kim Ortiz shared snippets from Fulbright's diary that cast her in a less-than-flattering light. She wrote about her desire to be rich and famous and her second thoughts about dating Joshua Conway, whom she described as being beneath her on several levels.
The people who wrote Judge Michael Miller on her behalf included not only family members, but family friends, UA professors, fellow law school students, her dentist, the jail chaplain and a modeling agency representative.
Here are some adjectives they used to describe her: sweet, caring, smart, accomplished, well-liked, kind, strong, good, passionate, good-hearted, joyful, helpful, giving and generous.
They all said she was intelligent and driven and are positive she will lead a successful life once she's free, albeit not in the profession she chose.
Many said she was deeply remorseful for her actions and she had simply been "caught up" in the events.
Here's part of what she had to say in her letter to the judge:
"The results of Dec. 8, 2007, represent the biggest mistake of my life. The domino effect of this disaster has impacted the lives of everyone around me. Clearly, I did not think through my choices and decisions and the serious consequences that would result from those choices. I am very sorry for the harm I have caused through my actions."
"This experience has been both profound and humbling. I have been able to reflect on my relationship with the universe and despite the physical incarceration of the past year, it has been incredibly emancipating for all other aspects of my being. Everything I have learned, seen, and lived I regard as invaluable in the journey of my life. I embrace this entire experience as a necessary one in the fulfillment of my future and destiny."
She goes on to talk about her gratitude toward the people who stuck by her side and wraps it up saying....
"In summary, Your Honor, this has been a teachable moment that has left me filled with gratitude for the people in my life and the future in front of me. I am determined to demonstrate by my actions that this is a mistake for which I am truly sorry and to live up to the expectations my loved ones have for me."

OAKLEY RADARLOCK PATH sports glasses
opis produktu
With the RADARLOCK PATH sun glasses by OAKLEY you'll have everything in view in any weather - no matter which trail you choose. The PRIZM lenses help you perceive the smallest bumps and changes on the track and react directly. The perfect choice for ambitious cyclists, too.
• durability and high wearing comfort thanks to featherlight, robust O MATTER frame material
• optical precision and performance in accordance with ANSI Z87.1 standards
• the shock resistance meets all ANSI Z87.1 standards for impact protection in high speed and high mass
• UV protection thanks to PLUTONITE lens, which filters 100 % of all UV-A/UV-B/UV-C rays as well as harmful blue light up to 400 nm
• PRIZM – sports and environment-specific lenses to optimise and enhance the vision
• lenses can be replaced easily thanks to SWITCHLOCK technology
• HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS technology for a view in HD quality
Manufacturer's ref.: OO9181
This durable, lightweight and very comfortable O-MATTER frame material optimises the protection and provides a flexible fit at the same time.
One of the optically purest materials used for glasses nowadays. It increases clarity and impact resistance and filters 100% of all UVA, UVB and UVC rays as well as harmful blue light up to 400 nm. The UV protection is not achieved by a coating, but by the lens material itself.
The PRIZM lens technology enhances contrasts and clears the view for different kinds of sport and environments. The lenses are suitable for a wide range of light conditions so that you don't have to change them.
SWITCHLOCK technology:
This technology allows to loosen the lenses fast. By means of a small hook on the left inner frame, the frame can be opened and the lenses changed with ease and without tension. In this way, athletes can quickly react to changing light conditions with different lens tints.
OAKLEY has developed High Definition Optics (HDO). This term refers to a number of patented lens technologies developed in-house for special optical accuracy and fidelity. However, the HDO technology stands out not only for accuracy. It also stands out for innovations concerning impact resistance that meets strict safety standards and for a 100% filtering of UV light. OAKLEY HDO protect the eyes and at the same time make sure that visual information reaches the brain with the highest possible accuracy.

English Tudor–Style B & B Overlooking Upper Rapids
After stag hunting, Saxon royals often retired to the Bell Inn in Finedon, England, whose history dates back nearly 1,000 years. The English Tudor–style estate served as inspiration to hoteliers William Schoellkopf and Charles Peabody, who sought to essentially re-create the inn near Niagara Falls in the early 20th century. In August of 1923, the Tudor-style Red Coach Inn opened its doors. The AAA Three Diamond–rated, 3.5-story B & B sits directly adjacent to the Upper Rapids of Niagara Falls. As the Red Coach Inn's website states, you'll be so close to the falls "you can hear the roar."
Niagara Falls' nickname is The Honeymoon Capital of the World, and The Red Coach Inn often plays host to romantic vacations. The inn was recently featured on an episode of The Office as a honeymoon hot spot for newlyweds Jim and Pam. The guest rooms—each named after an English village—blend antique furnishings with modern amenities, and most windows look out to the frothy Upper Rapids of the falls. Guests can slip into waterproof barrels before floating in the jets of the in-room jacuzzi tub.
Each morning, head to the Fireside Room for a complimentary breakfast. The award-winning restaurant serves entrees such as belgian waffles and steak and eggs. After filling up, you can stroll the scenic grounds, located just 500 yards from the brink of Niagara Falls. Visit the nearby Seneca Niagara Casino to use the included $30 credit toward slots.
Niagara Falls, New York: Spectacular Waterfalls at United States–Canada Border
Encompassing more than 400 acres, Niagara Falls State Park functions as a natural border between Canada and the United States. More than a million bathtubs' worth of water cascades down Niagara Falls every second. There are pedestrian bridges and observation decks on the New York side that look out onto Horseshoe Falls and American Falls, where water spills over jagged cliffs. The most invigorating view might be from the Hurricane Deck—a wooden platform located 20 feet from Bridal Veil Falls. Access the platform by taking the Cave of the Winds tour, during which professional guides lead poncho-clad visitors to Bridal Veil Falls via wooden pathways.

Invader onslaught unleashed by NAFTA
The recent ferment on immigration policy has been so narrow that it has excluded the real issue: family-sustaining wages for workers both north and south of the border.

Twitter's CEO says the social network does not plan to counter Facebook after it scooped up the photo-sharing app Instagram for $1 billion.
According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, Twitter chief Dick Costolo said the company is under no pressure to respond with a major acquisition.
"I think that sometimes there is a tendency for companies to react to events in the marketplace that are inconsistent with their strategy ... and I think that tendency is a mistake," Costolo says in the report.
Costolo cited the push by companies to scoop up video-sharing sites after Google inked a huge deal to snag YouTube, says the report.
Last week, Facebook announced it was buying Instagram -- a photo-sharing app where users can take pictures and apply filters for a more retro appearance -- for $1 billion.
According to a New York Times report, "Several people briefed on the matter" claimed Twitter had shown interest in buying Instagram in recent months.

Can Conservative Media's Obamacare Enrollment Trutherism Finally Be Put To Rest?
New information from major health insurance companies shows that most Obamacare customers have paid their first month's premiums, evidence that undermines the right-wing media's attempts to discount the unexpectedly high number of Americans who have gained coverage under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
On April 17, the President Obama announced [1] that 8 million people had been enrolled for health care coverage through the ACA exchanges, exceeding previous White House predictions. Right-wing news outlets worked to downplay the health reform law's success by claiming that the numbers were inflated because some people had not yet paid their first premium.
As the enrollment period drew to a close, Fox's Chris Wallace had questioned the high enrollment numbers because he claimed [2] "they still have no numbers for how many people have paid for coverage," while Fox News hosts and radio personalities like Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh even went as far as to claim [3] the administration was "cooking the books" in order to inflate the number of enrollees. Fox News [4], The Blaze [5], and The Hill [6] later trumpeted GOP data that was eventually acknowledged to be "incredibly rigged [7]" to claim that only 67 percent of the total enrollees had completed the application process by submitting their first premium payment and that the numbers contradicted to the administration's announcement.
Contrary to these myths, new evidence [8] from Bloomberg confirms what the White House has argued [9] since the enrollment period ended -- insurance companies estimate that between 80 and 90 percent of people have paid their first premium:
Three large health insurers including WellPoint Inc. (WLP) and Aetna Inc. (AET) say that a high percentage of their new Obamacare customers are paying their first premiums, undermining a Republican criticism of enrollment in the program.
As many as 90 percent of WellPoint customers have paid their first premium by its due date, according to testimony the company prepared for a congressional hearing today. For Aetna, the payment is in the "low to mid-80 percent range," the company said in its own testimony. Health Care Service Corp., which operates Blue Cross Blue Shield plans in five states including Texas, said that number is at least 83 percent.
As the president of Washington consulting firm Avalere Health told Bloomberg, "What you have here is very solid first year enrollment, no matter how you slice it."

Imphal, Jan. 25: A demonstration by a group of women activists on the eve of Republic Day outside the Kangla Fort today brought back memories of a dozen women disrobing at this site nearly a decade back to protest against atrocities committed by security forces.
At that time, Kangla Fort was the headquarters of Assam Rifles, where 12 elderly women had disrobed and shouted, Indian army rape us, Indian army take our flesh, stunning the country and the world.
The custodial killing of Thangjam Manorama, a young girl from Imphal East after alleged rape in July 2004, had triggered the unprecedented parade. Today, the women activists, numbering about 50, chanted slogans, demanding repeal of the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act outside the western gate of the fort. The saluting base of the Republic Day marchpast is located inside Kangla Fort, about 300 metres from the protest site. The demonstration took place as government authorities were preparing the base where Manipur governor V.K. Duggal will receive the salute from the marching contingents tomorrow.
Repeal Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, the women chanted. Some of the dozen protesters who had taken part in the 2004 parade were also present today. At the stroke of 12.30pm, the protesters appeared at the gate, displayed three posters, which read, Indian army rape us, We trusted you (Manmohan Singh), you betrayed us, and Repeal Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, and started shouting slogans.
This year marks the completion of a decade since the Prime Minister made his promise from Kangla Fort to replace the army act with a more humane legislation.
Manmohan Singh made this promise after the Manorama episode and led to the peoples uprising subsiding, as we trusted in the Prime Ministers words. Ten years have passed since then but he has done nothing. So, we held the demonstration to remind him of the promise, Thokchom Ramani, one of the dozen who disrobed in 2004, said.
Police did not lose much time in arriving at the scene of the protest but they did not intervene immediately. After surveying the scene for sometime, they moved in and snatched away the posters. Later, the protesters dispersed.
Todays demonstration marked the beginning of a fresh phase of the campaign against the army act in Manipur. Sources in citizens groups said the demonstration was the result of a course of action charted by a working committee of the groups. More such demonstrations would follow, they said.

Oh sure Renee. Everybody knows you are part of a Government cover up of this incident......OK, so that's not really true, but I thought I would be the first to start the rumor, while wishing you a Happy Holiday season....Best to you and your family.

I'm afraid it is true; it is a government cover-up. See this video, taken from Area 51. These certainly don't look like meteors to me. We've all seen pictures of meteors.
There's only one explanation. Aliens. And they've come to manipulate the elections in their determination to take over the world.
Remember the recent record setting "parachute" jumper, who said his name was "Felix Baumgartner?" He landed in Roswell, NM. What we are watching are some of his extra-terrrestrial buddies. Need I say more?

That's analogous to saying that you don't want to depend on a lighter since you can make your own fire by rubbing a stone with a wood stick.

Local self-serve yogurt shop to surface with 2nd location
After years underground in Rochester's subways, Pat Carroll is coming to the surface to serve up his latest project.
Carroll is known for his iconic Carroll's Corn popcorn shop and its sweet sibling, the self-serve yogurt shop called Carroll's Cup. Both are downtown in the subway under the Kahler Grand Hotel.
Now he's working on creating a second Carroll's Cup in the Apache Mall's Food Court. Construction crews have already began work in the 850-square-foot space that formerly housed Taco Bell.
If things go according to plan, the new Cup should start serving this fall. The hope is to open by late October or early November.
"We're really excited about this," says Carroll.
He says the popularity of Carroll's Cup, which opened last year, got him thinking about the possibility of a second location.
"Then the Apache Mall came to us, asking if we'd be interested in going in there," says Carroll.
This shop will be similar to the original Carroll's Cup. However, leaving the subway and the downtown Mayo Clinic crowd means this one with have a few new twists.
First and foremost, fans will find the ten flavors of yogurt and 50 choices of toppings available at more times than the current schedule of the subway location allows.
"A lot of customers say to us, 'We wish you were open at night. We wish you were open on weekends,'" he says. "Now we'll be open during the mall hours."
Being about twice the size the original Cup, the plan is to make it easier for customers as they create their customized treats.
Unlike the usual counter service seen at the other Food Court eateries, Carroll's Cup will be an open room with yogurt machines and a self-serve toppings bar with fruit, granola, chocolate sauce, candy and more.
Expect it to have the same "fun and upbeat" flavor of the downtown location with lots of bright, eye-catching colors, says Carroll.
Self-serve frozen yogurt is a hot commodity these days.
A national franchise is trying to wrap up its own construction to get its Second Street Southwest location open soon.
CherryBerry is located in one of the new Shoppes on Second buildings in front of the new Holiday Inn Express & Suites at Second Street Southwest and U.S. 52.
Co-owner and manager Joel Granberg says work is moving along quickly now, after a slow start.
He estimates that the 2,000-square-foot at 123 16th Ave. S.W. could open as soon as late August or early September.

Is the damper opening and closing controlled by the flow of air from the fan? The fan inside the freezer is working btw. I had tons of frost on the coils and they are currently defrosting. I measured the resistance across the thermostat and it read really high when the freezer was warm and really low when the freezer was cold.
Okay I'll try that out and see if it holds up

Ask Experts & Get Answers to Your Questions - ASAP
Welcome to Just Answer and thanks for your question. First, it is best to start out with good quality knives. Cheap metal will not hold an edge. After sharpening thoroughly, store your knives in a holder in a drawer, or in a knife block between uses so the blade doesn't hit against anything else and dull it. Of course, I'm sure you wash a knife immediately after use, dry it completely and return it to its storage place. You should also straighten/gently realign the edge with a steel every week or so to maintain it between full sharpenings. Your cutting board also matters. While you can't damage marble or granite, a plain wooden (maple, bamboo) doesn't dull a knife as badly as harder materials.
Could you explain what you mean by "straighten/gently realign the edge with a steel?"
You've probably seen chefs on TV and father at Thanksgiving dinner using a honing/sharpening steel. There is a little video in the link below. You just gently draw the blade down the steel a couple of times on each side. While holding the steel in the air and flapping your arms like a chicken perhaps may make someone think they look more "professional," the best method is to put the pointed end of the steel on your cutting board, holding the steel perpendicular to the board and draw the knife blade gently down each side. You can control the angle that way so that each side gets the same amount of aligning. You won't look like Wolfgang Puck, but you won't ruin your knife either.

The entry of overseas fashion labels and new shopping centre redevelopments have put Sydney and Melbourne's main streets in the top 10 of the world's most expensive cities for prime rents.
Driven by Westfield in Sydney, the area in and around Pitt Street Mall, came in at No. 6 spot. CFS Retail's jointly owned Emporium has put Melbourne in at No. 9.
The opening of more brands including H&M and its Collection of Style (COS) labels, Uniqlo and Forever 21 will all add to an increase in rent as space gets leased.
According to the CBRE data, the average CBD lease in Sydney is about $10,500 per square, which can go to almost double in some areas, while for Melbourne it is about $8800 on average.
Hong Kong kept its position as the world's most expensive city for global retailers, while prime rents in major markets such as New York, Paris and London continue to reach record-breaking levels.
In its quarterly ranking of 97 prime retail locations/markets across the globe, CBRE's analysis shows competition in the world's leading cities is strengthening. This demand is being fuelled by high-end retailers willing to pay record rents for the most coveted shops.

Former Norwich city youngster, Damon Lathrope, has joined Aldershot Town after being released by Torquay United.
The combative and industrious midfielder renowned for his excellent range of passing, has joined the Shots from the Devon club where he made 122 appearances in four years.
The 24-year-old played a key part in the Gulls reaching back-to-back League Two play-off campaigns before he was released following the club's relegation last season.
Lathrope, who also played eight games for Hereford United in a loan spell last year, said: "I've had some really good times at Torquay United but this is definitely the right time for a change, and Aldershot is a great club.
"The fans always create a great atmosphere and I think we're going to have a really successful season. [Shots defender] Joe Oastler is one of my best friends in football and he had nothing but good things to say about the club and the staff.
"It's a new chapter in my career and I can't wait to get started."
Lathrope joined Norwich City's academy in 2006 and was later awarded a professional contract by manager Glenn Roeder in January 2008.
In 2009 he was loaned to Bishops Stortford before signing with Torquay in 2010.
A chuffed Andy Scott added: "I'm delighted to sign Damon – there are probably Football League clubs that will be kicking themselves that they haven't been able to sign him.
"He did very well at Torquay and was instrumental in them getting to the play-offs.
"He is an out-and-out defensive midfield player, he's strong and aggressive and a good organiser, and he will enable us to play different players in different formations. He will be a vital cog in our team framework.
"We're bringing in players at a good age and we're hopeful that with us they will reach the peak of their abilities. T
"he players have heard good things about the club, how we help them, the squad that we've got, the camaraderie amongst the group and the facilities that we provide. That is important to them."

Best Buy
Hopes for a turnaround at Best Buy (BBY) were dashed, at least temporarily. Though the consumer electronics chain reported better-than-expected quarterly profit and revenue on Nov.19, its comparable sales were below consensus forecasts.
Even more ominous in the eyes of investors was the company's commentary about an increasingly "promotional" fourth quarter. That shouldn't have been a shock since Best Buy sells consumer electronics, one of the most competitive areas in retail.
CEO Hubert Joly has earned kudos from Wall Street for making Best Buy relevant again by matching the prices of rivals such as Amazon (AMZN). Whether Joly can do this without sacrificing margins remains to be seen. Even with its recent setback, shares of BBY have skyrocketed more than 200% this year.
Of the discount rack stocks we discussed here, this is the only one that is worth investors' time. Joly has made great strides in improving the consumer electronics retailer and has even won over founder Richard Schulze, who briefly considered taking the company private.
BBY stock trades about 17% percent under the average 52-week price target of $46.10. Given the launch of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, there is every reason to expect Best Buy to have a holiday season that will be jollier than many expect.
As for the others companies we discussed, you're better off avoiding them like holiday fruit cake.
As of this writing, Jonathan Berr did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

Dan Excel turned the tables on stablemate and last year's winner Military Attack and won the Singapore Airlines International Cup (Sin-I) in record time May 18 at Kranji Racecourse.
The race was one of two top-level international events on the card. The other, the KrisFlyer International Sprint (Sin-I), was won by Lucky Nine. Both winners are based in Hong Kong.
Trainer John Moore celebrated consecutive wins as Dan Excel bested Smoking Sun by 1 3/4 lengths in the SIA Cup, with Hong Kong Horse of the Year and overwhelming favorite Military Attack checking in third, 1 1/2 lengths farther back.
Dan Excel hugged the rail in second and Military Attack raced in sixth as Japan-based Tokei Halo opened a commanding lead down the backstretch. The winner quickened smartly in the straight on the cue from jockey Tommy Berry and secured the victory as Tokei Halo faded to fourth.
Dan Excel finished in 1:59.07 for the 2,000-meter (about 1 1/4-mile) contest on good turf. The time shaved .15 off Gloria De Campeao's record time of 1:59.22 set in the 2009 edition of the race.
After racing at the back of the 12-horse field, French group II winner Smoking Sun was angled four wide and uncoiled a torrid rally a quarter-mile out for Stephane Pasquier to take second.
Under urging from Joao Moreira, Military Attack gained ground but lost some momentum when bumped by Limario in the straight and finished third.
Moore said post positions dictated the race's outcome between his stablemates.
"Dan Excel was always the underdog, the bridesmaid, but he drew the right gate. He had barrier number 1, and he just enjoyed a ground-saving run on the rails throughout," Moore said of the 6-year-old son of Shamardal, a former Irish classic starter who won the 2013 Champions' Mile (HK-I) at Sha Tin
"Military Attack had to be used very early to get across from his wide draw (the 10 hole) and he was not the same at the finish.
"Had he drawn a gate from 1 to 3, I think he would have finished a lot closer. It was still a great run considering he was drawn wide and they broke the record."
Graded stakes-placed Si Sage, based in Southern California with Darrell Vienna, was never a factor in a sixth-place finish after racing in midfield with David Flores aboard.
Formerly raced in Ireland under the name Dunboyne Express, Dan Excel has a 6-10-3 record from 36 career starts. His resume includes fifth-place finishes in the 2011 Irish Derby (Ire-I) and Abu Dhabi Irish Two Thousand Guineas (Ire-I) for previous owner and breeder John Connaughton. He is out of the Polish Precedent mare Love Excelling, a half sister to 2000 Vodafone Epsom Oaks (Eng-I) winner Love Divine, the dam of Irish classic winner Sixties Icon. He is campaigned by David Philip Boehm.
Hong Kong champion sprinter Lucky Nine took the KrisFlyer International Sprint for an unprecedented second straight year.
The 7-year-old son of Dubawi, ridden by Brett Prebble for Caspar Fownes, was settled just off the early pace of Captain Obvious and was switched to the outside for his rally. He won by two lengths from Emperor Max, with Zac Spirit 2 1/4 lengths back in third.
Lucky Nine covered 1,200 meters (about six furlongs) in 1:08.15. He has a 14-9-5 record from 41 career starts, including last year's three-length victory in the race for Dr. Chang Fuk To and Maria Chang Lee Ming Shum.
Dubai Golden Shaheen (UAE-I) winner and favorite Sterling City ran evenly to finish fifth.
Lucky Nine was bred in Ireland by Darley out of the winning Green Desert mare Birjand.

When DC cancelled Men at War and Blackhawks, did they really think a new War book would good idea? How about one that is pretty flat and dull, pandering and derivative? So there are two stories.

Review of Product: I received the fabulous new Weight Watchers products and tried them all. Luscious! I tried the snack size chocolate fudge bar, the snack size variety pack of ice cream sandwiches in vanilla bean and dutch chocolate, the dark chocolate dulce de leche bar, and the dark chocolate raspberry cheesecake bar. I loved the snack sizes because of their size (and taste of course!) They are the perfect 1 point addition to any meal and were super creamy and yummy. The dark chocolate bars were more decadent and higher in points but still very reasonable. I loved the sharp flavors of the cheesecake and the dulce de leche bars, these are not your traditional low calorie ice cream treat!
I received a sample of these products to review at no charge but my opinions remain my own.

According to a source, the 'Jupiter Ascending' star attended a baby shower hosted in her honor on Sunday, July 27 in Los Angeles.
Heavily pregnant Mila Kunis celebrated baby shower over the weekend, E! News learned. The site reported that the actress, who's expecting her first child with fiance Ashton Kutcher, attended a low-key party hosted in her honor on Sunday, July 27 in Los Angeles.
The mom-to-be was feted by her pals and opened her gifts during the very secretive event. "It was very small and intimate. Just her close friends and family," a source said of the bash and added that the celebration did not have a theme.
After weeks of speculation, Kunis confirmed her pregnancy in May. The "Jupiter Ascending" star recently told Marie Claire that she would want Kutcher to be with her in the delivery room but didn't want him to see her vagina being "shredded."
"Two people are allowed in my delivery room. My doctor and my significant other. And he is staying above the action. He'll be head to head. Not head to vag. Unless he wants to risk his life and see," she said. "But I wouldn't if I were him. I highly doubt he wants to see that being ripped apart and shredded. Because it will be shredded. It's just a matter of how badly."
Kunis and Kutcher reportedly will tie the knot next year. A source close to the couple told RadarOnline, "The wedding will be next July. They want to focus on their daughter first and having it next summer seems logical."
The source continued that the wedding would likely be a very intimate affair attended by the cast of "That 70's Show".

Sept. 9: The Summit and other aboriginal
groups sign an agreement with the provincial government to allow
more aboriginal children to grow up and flourish in their own culture.
Children of aboriginal ancestry make up only eight per cent of B.C.'s
child population but comprise 40 per cent of about 10,000 children
in the government's care. "We are here today because we've put the
children first," explained Grand Chief Ed John.
August 28: The B.C. Court of Appeal upheld
a lower court decision restoring about four hectares (10 acres)
of Kitsilano land to the Squamish Indian Band, 116 years after it
was expropriated for use by the Canadian Pacific Railway. The land,
appraised at about $20 million, and part of the ancestral home of
the Squamish people, is under the shadow of the Burrard Street Bridge
and adjacent to the Molson Brewery. Squamish Nation Chief Gibby
Jacob said Wednesday the unanimous decision by five justices of
the B.C. Court of Appeal is "marvellous."
Aug. 19: The B.C. Court of Appeal reaffirms
a ruling that says Weyerhaeuser must consult with the Haida Nation
about how it harvests trees on the Queen Charlotte Islands. The
2-1 ruling deals with issues raised by another decision on the same
case in February, 2002 when the court ruled there was a duty on
both government and third parties to "consult and accommodate aboriginal
interests in the land even before aboriginal title is proven. "The
issue is an important one,'' wrote Justice John Lambert in the court's
then unanimous opinion. "If the Crown can ignore or override aboriginal
title or rights until such time title or rights are confirmed by
treaty or a court, . . . the Crown can force every claimant into
court before conceding any effective recognition be given to the
claimed aboriginal rights.''
June: Aboriginal leaders come together
to sign the Tsawwassen Accord, calling for the development of aboriginal
authorities to lead the way in reducing the number of aboriginal
children in care.
Apr. 4: Launching an anti-referendum ad
campaign in newspapers across BC, the First Nations Summit urges
all British Columbians to join in a province-wide boycott of the
vote. Many eminent people Thomas Berger and pollster Angus
Reid among others write opinion pieces explaining why they
refuse to vote in the referendum. John Dixon of the BC Civil Liberties
Association writes, "the referendum is an exercise in political
cynicism and deserves to be shunned."
Apr. 1: BC Liberals mail out ballots to
all eligible British Columbians for the referendum on treaty negotiations.
This, despite repeated warnings from the First Nations Summit that
the costly exercise would further delay treaty making and subject
First Nations to the "whim of the majority."
March 8: The Tsawwassen First Nation launches
a lawsuit to shut down the Roberts Bank Superport and the BC Ferries
terminal, seeking an injunction to curtail the port and ferry operations

areas with BC Ferries and the Vancouver Port Authority have gone
March 6: Haida Nation initiates a lawsuit
against the provincial and federal governments, saying it not only
has aboriginal title to all the lands contained within Haida Gwaii
(Queen Charlottes), but also to the resources in and under the sea,
including oil and gas reserves believed to be under Hecate Strait.
The writ seeks a declaration that the Haida are the aboriginal owners
of the entire remote archipelago off the north coast of BC and that
all of the activities within those lands that are incompatible with
the Haida should cease. The Haida also want an accounting of all
profits, taxes, stumpage dues, royalties and other benefits the
provincial and federal governments have collected over the years.
March 2: BC Liberals appoint Jack Weisgerber,
a former native affairs minister and leader of the BC Reform party
as its representative on the BC Treaty Commission. Weisgerber was
appointed BC's first minister of native affairs in 1988 in the Social
Credit government of Bill Vander Zalm. In that role, he helped get
the modern treaty negotiation process started. As leader of the
BC Reform party in the 1990s, Weisgerber was sharply critical of
the Nisga'a treaty. In a 1995 speech to the First Nations Summit,
Weisgerber said the negotiations should involve primarily money,
not land. He also said aboriginal people should emerge with the
same rights, responsibilities, government services and taxation
levels as all other British Columbians.

Joe Mathias challenge comments made by Lieutenant-Governor Garde
Gardom at the swearing-in ceremony of the new Provincial Cabinet.
The Lt.-Gov made reference to the discovery by English explorers
to an empty land of BC.
The sudden passing of Chief Joe Mathias was mourned
by aboriginal people throughout BC and Canada. Chief Mathias was
a guiding light whose dedication to the pursuit of social justice
and economic well-being of First Nations people inspired the lives
of many. The powerful spirit and legacy of Joe will live on in the
hopes and dreams of all of us.
February: A historic joint statement on
Aboriginal title is made by the First Nations Summit, the Assembly

that it should not be used as a template for future treaties.
In the first meeting of its kind since 1865, Task

Task Group Member Grand Chief Edward John, AFN
National Chief Phil Fontaine and other delegates meet with United
Nations Secretary Kofi Annan in New York City. This is a first ever
