Brother & sister running the hotel were excellent: attentive, friendly, and professional. Restaurant was good value, with a good selection of authentic and traditional food, including a large selection of pizzas. Pizzas were freshly-made in the restaurant and cooked in a wood-fired oven: delicious! Just about adequate parking, with some underneath and therefore in shade. One waitress in particular could have been friendlier.
Hotel Meridiana is not attractive from the outside but inside it has been completely renovated with good bathrooms and fantastic views across the town of Arbus to the mountains in the distance. The swimming pool was great after a long days driving. The restaurant was nice and great pizzas cooked by the son. All together excellent value for money.
Very comfortable and well appointed hotel. Very good restaurant with own pizzas cooked right in the restaurant. Good local food as well
Nice and clean room Swimming pool didn't work. No information about it on their website. Receptionist didn't know, whether it is possible to go for bowling or not.
brand-new; very exclusive look, size of the rooms, very effective air condition, pool 'at the top of the hill'. Hotel very close to restaurants but not affected by noise. Very nice and helpful receptionists -
Nice country hotel with magnificent pool and friendly staff Except for the mine district the nearby town is aninteresting.
Nice staff, parking place, decent restaurant, big room. Walls might be a little thin and you can overhear noise and other people speaking.
Welcome and hotel itself Hotel quite empty (June). We spend 2 nights and we were alone the two times for breakfast
The hotel is beautiful and decorated with a lot of taste. The bathroom is superb. Because the high season was over in late August, staff was limited: there was a pool bar but no one was there to serve.
We liked its quet location and the professionalism of all the staff. It is a well designed hotel and extremely comfortable. Everything is excellent
beautiful hotel. design of the hotel & the rooms really well done. swimming pool amazing. strange location for this hotel. appart of staying at this hotel, there is nothing to do in the area. piscinas dunes too far away. finally some problems with the staff. the staff really friendly, but organisation and service quite problematic.
The staff were excellent and go out of their way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. The rooms are very spacious, clean, air conditioned and luxorious. The pool area is original and also spacious. There is a good mix of international guests and the hotel restaurant is exceptional. The design and layout of the hotel is first class and feels very authentic despite being quite newly built. It is a little far from beaches if that is important to you. The local town Guspini does not have that many restaurants but it looks like it is in the process of gearing itself up for more tourists. If you are going to stay here, which I recommend you do then make sure you hire a car from the airport.
Despite of its location, the hotel is trying hard to be posh & contemporary and somehow creates its ambient separate from the outside world. It was convenient to have a restaurant attached - it could be too posh in a sense though. A shame there was always something missing, such as towels & slippers even though the room was booked for 2. Also tissues, extra toilette paper, soap etc were missing. As its Air Condition failure, we moved to another room. Then, still some amenities were missing. Hoped at least those necessities were there without asking. ; A cleaning machine was running alone in the pool - not professional!
The team did well to get our family interconnecting rooms so we could all be together. The setting was beautiful and the Hotel was beautifully presented and up to a very high standard The Hotel pride themselves on the restaurant which is truly high class. However, for us, the menu did not reflect our needs- particularly for younger children
Excellent service , great food and a lovely room. A good place to relax and unwind. Shame about location, nothing really near to hotel. Ok if you have a car and want to travel.
swimming-pool and hotel-restaurant
The rooms The hotel is extremly bad managed. Not enough staff, facilities at swimmingpool unsufficient, no bar service. The food at the restautrant was so over salted that we could not finish our meals. We left the hotel after one night!!!

Emily & Annie

The kind of body required to be able to work this dress... GOD. You can't be scrawny, right? Because then you can't fill it out.

But first... Justin Theroux packs light. He's still hardcore like that, you know? Even though he's dating Jennifer Aniston and they're spending the holidays at a luxury resort in Cabo, hosting friends like Emily Blunt, John Krasinski, Jimmy Kimmel and his fiancée Molly, all Justin really needs is a piece of paper and a pen, maybe a cup of coffee in a dark corner with his bike parked outside, so he can ride away with his thoughts at any moment, far from Hollywood, and he wouldn't look back.

Sorry, but that's John Krasinski

John Krasinski's twee Twitter
Dam /Broadimage /KEYSTONE
On my General List of Celebrity Don'ts, there were several items relating to social media. Mostly things like "don't get into Twitter fights" and "don't reference yourself in a tweet", but one thing I didn't mention—because I thought we were past this, honestly—was "don't join Twitter then act like you don't know what it is".

Why you must have it: You're shooting photos on your digital camera, but no one can see them until you get back to your Internet-connected computer. The Eye-Fi Explore changes that, using an embedded Wi-Fi radio in the SD card to upload your photos to any of several popular photo-sharing services (a year of hotspot service access is included) or to your computer over a wireless LAN. Plus, it geotags your photos based on where you took them. InfoWorld Test Center contributing editor Brian Chee sung its praises in his Geeks in Paradise blog, and for good reason.
Your chances of having the first one on the block: Moderate, given the publicity the Explore and its 4GB cousins the Home and Anniversary Editions have received.
What you must know: Of the three Eye-Fi models, the Explore is the only one with upload-to-Web and bundled hotspot access service included.
What you need: A digital camera with an SD card slot (or SDHC for the Anniversary Edition). The Explore and Anniversary Edition cost $130 each, while the Home edition costs $80.

Like said before, with all the atrocities of Nazi Germany, Stalin Sovjet and Japanese empire you cant seriously belive they would stay away from using the bomb. This is not speculation, these guys killed 50-100 million together in a short span of time.

Dresden bombing was unnescessary and without purpose, in the US case there was an ultimatum they hoped would work. We have the bomb and will instead of invading Japan use it in city after city until the Japanese government surrender, that is reasonable even if cold and maybe unethical even against an unethical enemy. When brittain bombed Dresden it had no purpose at all, it was just revenge.
I am not american ,russian, german or anything else. Russians invaded Nazi germany with blood in their mouth to have revenge for the horrible crimes Nazi Germany had done in their own country. What they did to Germany was alot worse then what the US did to Japan, but not worse than what germans had done to Russia previously.
My strength in debating this issue is that I have no emotional attachment to any of these countries and feel no one is much worth defending. I chose to defend the US because I get tired of the two dimensional view anti-americans have of the world, they are ready to support almost any of America's enemies.

No, not great powers doing the same. See China in Tibet, Russia in Chechnya and so on. Also some smaller countries can do atrocities with support of any of these great powers. See Israel with support of US, Sudan with support of Russia/China, Syria's regime and so on. Big countries can do as they like, anyway only the US has the military strength to truly go around the world to start wars. For now.

You rightly name Tibet, which is an atrocity. The list of similar atrocities by the US however is so much longer. Cuba, Haiti, Vietnam, Indonesia, Iraq, Afghanistan, just to name a few.
You mix some real illegitimate atrocities like Vietnam and Iraq, then legitimate wars like the one in Afghanistan and even East Timor independence in Indonesia which in my eyes was legitimate, the complete catastrophy which is Haiti is barely US problem and no atrocity has been done there and neither in Cuba, I do think the veto is wrong now that the cold war is over, but a veto is no atrocity. I hope you are not claiming the failed invasion of Cuba by Kennedy was an atrocity, it was just an atrocity of stupidity.
US has done some good things aswell, I think it was good they saved Korea from North Korea's communist regime even if it cost 2 milion people's lifes, ofcourse it is always easy to look back when we now have the results at hand. Overall the US was a force for good in the second world war together with Brittain. Thank god US existed to counter balance the Sovjet Union.

I said that we are not yet ready for this, but it is also an inevitability. Cultures and languages are already breaking down, globalization will lead to this.
I am not pro-american, I am pro-america that existed in the late 19th century, were the civil society was free from government intervention to build their own futures as they like. I think Washington with less power and back to state-level solutions will bring US back to be something both you and I would be happy with, a non-militaristic US that is more difficult to be controlled by big interests.
Anyway, I can sometimes be worried by the vacuum such a more isolated US would leave in the world, there is always some meaner wolf to come and eat all the sheep when the big bear goes to sleep.
All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.

Darren Hibbert, the man dubbed ''The Gazelle'' in the drugs-in-sport saga, says he personally tested every supplement before administering it to NRL players.
Hibbert, who works for supplements company Advanced Sports Nutrition, maintains he has never provided players with banned substances and is prepared to take a polygraph test to prove it.
Cronulla's former head conditioner, Trent Elkin, now at Parramatta, vehemently denied claims he had tested the club's peptide program on himself. However, Hibbert stated he always took the supplements before they were offered the players and conducted blood tests to ensure he always adhered to the World Anti-Doping Authority code.
''Of course that's what I do,'' Hibbert told Fairfax Media. ''I do research into anti-ageing and sports performance. Any product that I help the players with, I use first.
''We are very thorough with all of our research that we do on anything we think might help the players. We always check the safety of them and make sure it doesn't cause any health effects.''
Hibbert has refused to be interviewed by the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority and is considering his legal options after officers descended on his home last month. He claimed they were aggressive in their line of questioning and pushed him to ''roll over'' on sports scientist Stephen Dank.
The 47-year-old is adamant he has nothing to hide and that, with the blessing of his legal team, he would be prepared to submit to a lie-detector test. ''Yeah, no problem,'' Hibbert said. ''I can't see any problems with that. I've got nothing to hide.''
Former Australian cricket captain Steve Waugh is one of the highest-profile athletes to take a lie detector test and believes polygraphs could be an important tool to stamp out corruption in sport.
Charlie's Angels Consultants boss Charles Rahim, who specialises in polygraph services, believes it is a useful tool which could be used in the current drugs-in-sport investigations. He said he would offer his services to any officials or players - including the 31 from the NRL to be interviewed by ASADA - who wanted to clear their name.
''Any investigative tool which can be used to eliminate people out of the equation is great, as long as the testing is quality controlled,'' Rahim said. ''I believe this would be very beneficial. I've tested a couple of players before - I can't say who or what about - but it has cleared their name on their occasions.''
But Dr Ben Koh, a sports doctor who is an expert in the WADA code, described the use of polygraphs to catch or clear drug cheats as ''gimmickry''. ''I think that would be clutching at straws … there is no credible scientific evidence to show any pattern of physiological response is unique to telling the truth or lying.''

Natfan: Norwegian Sky Cruise Review by Natfan
Overall Member Rating
Destination: Bahamas
Embarkation: Miami
I found the Sky of course to be older and outdated from the newer ships in the fleet, but I knew that would be the case. I found the staff, crew, service, and food aboard to be up to NCL standards.
I was disappointed with several things however. Of course we were unable to stop at Great Stirrup Cay due to the weather, so we only got one port of call in Nassau. I did go on a tour to Atlantis and enjoyed seeing it, but probably would not go back.
I know it is a short cruise, but was disappointed with the on board music and entertainment in general(or lack thereof). The comedian/magician Tim Pupura was the worst I have ever More seen on a ship (especially after having just seen Jeff Hobson on the Epic). I have no problem with diversity of music, culture, or people, but was disappointed that on the only island sail away the Caribbean band was nowhere to be found, but a two man Hispanic guitar and bongo player(performing in Spanish much less) were performing on deck by the pool. I go to the islands to hear Caribbean music played by a Caribbean band on deck when sail away occurs. We were fortunate to hear them 1 day only. Also, a Hispanic duet was singing in the atrium in Spanish. We had to seek out music in English. I know the shorter cruise caters to it's market on weekends, which certainly would be Hispanics from South Florida, and I have no problem with that, but half the passengers on board who are not Hispanic were forced to find venues of music in English or American in nature from 50's rock and roll to more modern,if at all due to the overall lack of music and entertainment. Even the cruise director kept saying over and over that due to the large diversity on board, there is a large diversity of entertainment planned, as if to forewarn passengers. I definitely felt there was a lack of on board activities.
I would recommend the Sky to first time cruisers, but I would never sail on the Sky for a short cruise. Being an experienced cruiser, I enjoy more quality, quantity, and variety on longer cruises. Also, there were so many small children aboard, the longer cruises generally attract a 40-60 crowd which is a better fit for me. I also (just my preference) prefer a slightly more upscale clientele, without being arrogant or snobby either. Less

The human nature is to strive for the ideal. The perception of "ideal proportion" has varied with passage of time for lastic Surgery In Chennai . The continued advances in the plastic surgeon's ability to modify the body image have resulted in an increased demand on the Cosmetic Surgery In Chennai.
The ability of the plastic surgeon to satisfy the patient undergoing aesthetic surgery and to achieve positive behavioural changes depends on many factors like for lastic Surgery In Chennai sensitivity to the patient's complaints and problems, effective communication and interaction.
Two problems, one is aging, second is obesity, rarely familial problems that puts the body out of shape. Much has been written about the body image; only the surface has been scratched in our understanding of psychological nuances involved in evaluating the prospective Cosmetic Surgery In Chennai patients. Our knowledge of self-image is very superficial.
Aesthetic Surgeon should have experience in dealing with psychological problems and also support of a psychiatrist who can evaluate the emotional status of the patient requesting change in physical appearance. A patient can be very unhappy if the results are criticized by family or close friend in immediate postoperative period.
The ability to penetrate the mask of human behaviour and to sense deep-seated disturbance is a gift that many physicians have and intuition plays an important role. The results depends how patients view's these results for Craniofacial Surgeons In Chennai. Results can be disastrous for the patients and surgeon if the change is viewed as a negative by patient despite the fact that the lastic Surgery In Chennai and other observer may feel differently
Cosmetic surgery is demanded by the patients. What is obvious deformity to surgeon is not what correction demanded by the patients. It is therefore; the outcome depends on the better understanding and communication between surgeon and patients.

You gotta have faith. But sometimes you also have to face reality. The two are slamming up against each other with reports that the NBA and players are talking again.
NBA LOCKOUT: Two sides talking again
Writes Jeff Zilgitt of USA TODAY:
In the spirit of the holiday season, with about 30 days needed from settlement to the start of a season, the NBA and the locked out players have given the gift of a resumption in talks....The goal would be a 66-game schedule, including play on Christmas, a big TV viewing opportunity for the NBA.
The talks are expected to continue through the Thanksgiving holiday with reports that NFL and NBA labor attorney Jim Quinn would be the go-between.
The details are probably less important than the intent. Do you have any hope that this time the two sides can get it done?

At yesterday's analysts briefing,
"How many of the 100 shops due to open in the first-stage release in October were actually leased?" one analyst asked.
"All of them,'' replied Lowy. And he sounded surprised.
Westfield has been forced to open malls in the US with empty shops but clearly Lowy had never contemplated opening the Sydney flagship with anything less than a full house.
That determination was on display at the half-year results yesterday. Westfield has driven its operational metrics hard. Global vacancies, arrears and debtors have all improved.
Joint managing director
But many challenges remain.
One is the way the group is remixing and reinventing its US portfolio.
A bigger question is how the group will grow its business to deliver increased share price and payout.
Australians may not appreciate the extent of the revolution that Westfield is attempting to engineer in the US. Malls there are different. Food is a very small part of the offer. Most is fashion, department stores traditionally leading the way.
Long-term, the position seems hard to sustain and Westfield is moving to introduce more "everyday'' uses into the malls.
Steven Lowy said that significant progress had been made on the strategy to broaden the retail mix and reconfigure some of the old department store boxes.
"Key concepts that are being introduced include supermarkets, cinemas, food courts, fitness centres, large-format discount and specialty retailers,'' he says.
New Wal-Marts, Targets, Targets with food and Aldi supermarkets have been introduced. The deal with Costco is the latest example.
Of course, changing long-standing behaviour is not easy. The position of existing tenants has to be carefully considered. Westfield's rivals are watching what is a revolution in the US mall industry.
The bigger question is what the trajectory of yesterday's result means for price.
Merrill Lynch analyst Simon Garing says the recent 32 per cent cut to the distribution reflects the underlying cash flow.
"We need the US consumer to be more optimistic before Westfield would move through $13,'' he says.
Goldman Sachs is reviewing its hold recommendation but says it is unlikely to change. Patterson's Jonathan Kriska has actually pulled back his price target.
"Westfield remains the highest-quality portfolio in the real estate investment trust space with the best management, but the stock is fully priced,'' he notes.
"Westfield trades at a 20 per cent premium to net tangible asset and has a 5.2 per cent yield. While the group has recently turned on its development pipeline, this won't really impact earnings growth until financial year 2012.''
The developments will produce some serious value. Westfield Sydney, with a forecast return of 8 to 8.5 per cent, will create an extra $700 million.
Goldman Sachs forecasts plenty of further development potential in the Australian expansion plans of Myer and David Jones.
JPMorgan estimates that 2010 will be a trough year for Westfield's earnings.
Peter Lowy agrees. But he also stresses that for investors, Westfield is about return and risk.
But he is understandably careful about saying any more.

Three tykes at twilight lose their ball over the wall. . . of Carrie Hepple's garden{ Craft establishes a hushed, shivery mood straight off - though it's hard to understand what is so fearful about old Carrie's glimpsed and rumored doings in the first place. Unsurprisingly, when the children do crawl through a hole in the wall, the old lady they encounter is a kindly soul who shows them her flowers and gives them sweets. But Craft nicely stretches out the children's apprehension. (Regarding the promised treat, "A hermit!/ A hermit's an old man/ who lives all alone!/ Does Carrie Hepple keep them/ locked in a crock of stone?") And Haas conjures up a pretty green mist (with, at this point, shadowy hermits trapped in the background) that hints of magic and encourages whispers. (Kirkus Reviews)show more

Betty White: 2012 Screen Actors Guild Awards Winner!
She's certainly the most experienced of all attendees, but Betty White looked as youthful as ever as hit up the 18th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday evening (January 29).
The former "Golden Girls" star was all smiles as she made her way inside the Shrine Exposition Center for the swanky SAG ceremony festivities.
Among the nominees, Betty ended up earning herself a little hardware - as she won Outstanding Performance By A Female Actor In A Comedy Series by beating out Julie Bowen, Edie Falco, Tina Fey and Sofia Vergara.
Airing live on TNT and TBS at 8PM ET, the show honors the best in Hollywood over the past year while also having selected Mary Tyler Moore as the recipient of the 48th Life Achievement Award.


text: In the early days of my blog, before we knew what a Jessica Chastain was, I posted a couple of Top 10 lists featuring the hottest gingers in the entertainment industry! And if you have just clicked on the link I agree with you, my choices were quite questionable. I think half of them are ginger out of a bottle. But if I were to post a new Top 10 list of uber-gingers this honey would for sure be a contender to feature. I get quite excited when a new editorial pops up online with Chastain front-and-centre and long may she continue to deliver on screen and off in print.

Strategic Interaction and Markets
Perfect competition provides the model of a frictionless economy, in which price-setting economic agents behave independently of each other, abandoning to the market the coordination of their individual decisions. The implications of this model are extensively presented in the traditional price theory textbooks. Imperfect competition is the paradigm that develops as soon as economic agents interact in a conscious manner, which is the rule when competition takes place amongst a restricted number of agents. In this system, agents act strategically, taking into account the impact of their decisions on competitors' behaviour and on the price mechanism. Such situations commonly arise when firms differentiate their products, erect strategic entry barriers, or exploit the imperfect information of their customers about the price or characteristics of their product. This book explores the theoretical richness of these economic contexts, using some basic tools of game theory. Designed as an ancillary text for graduate students, it not only summarizes the historic contributions made by economic theorists such as Cournot and Edgeworth, but also makes accessible many of the most recent developments in the same field.

Bangkok (AFP) Aug 06, 2007
Thailand plans to launch its first environmental satellite in November to help officials survey natural resources, cope with disasters and even fight drug trafficking, an official said Monday. The Theos satellite, whose name stands for Thailand Earth Observation Systems, has been under study and construction for two years, according to Thai space official Charnchai Peanvijarnpong. "The satellite will help us predict the chances of droughts or floods," said Charnchai, who is deputy director of Geo-Informatics at the government's Space Technology Development Agency.
The satellite will be able to monitor food crops but will also help counter-narcotics officials keep an eye on production of opium poppies and other illicit crops, he said.
"It will help state officials in suppressing illegal logging and drugs trafficking, while estimating the size of a number of other crops," Charnchai told AFP.
Several state agencies have already signed contracts to use the satellite's service, including the Royal Irrigation Department, the Office of Narcotics Control Board, the Natural Parks Department and the Defence Ministry, he said.
The project cost about six billion baht (179 million dollars). Work on Theos was done in cooperation with European space company EADS Astrium, he said.

Mapping Mountains From Space With GOCE
Paris (ESA) Aug 02, 2007
How high is Mount Everest exactly? Recent surveys have come up with heights that differ by more than five metres. An expedition called the Geodetic Journey is making its way through China and Tibet to highlight the importance of geodesy and how an accurate model of the geoid from ESA's GOCE mission will lead to a unified system for measuring heights. Geodesy is concerned with measuring and mapping the shape of the Earth's surface, to the benefit of all branches of Earth sciences and has many practical applications. Although surveying techniques go back thousands of years, it traditionally involves taking very precise three-dimensional positioning of points. It is the means by which the surface of the Earth is mapped and is also essential in the field of engineering and construction.

Professor Burnet (Japanese: バーネット博士 Dr. Burnet) is a researcher that debuted in Pokémon Dream Radar. Her research specializes in the relationship between Pokémon and other dimensions.
In the games
Professor Burnet studies the Interdream Zone, the space between dreams and reality. She is friends with Fennel from college; they became friends because they were both interested in studying dreams.
Burnet makes her core series debut in Pokémon Sun and Moon, where she is revealed to have married Professor Kukui of Alola. Three months prior to the start of the story, Burnet found Lillie lying on a beach, with Nebby in her bag. Ever since, she and her husband have been helping Lillie find out more about Nebby. After the player completes the three island trials of Akala Island, Kukui invites the player to the Dimensional Research Lab in Heahea City, where she has been researching the strange phenomena occurring in the Alola region, the Ultra Wormhole and the Ultra Beasts.

Pokémon Dream Radar
- When starting the game
- "So you're the new researcher? I appreciate you coming along. I'm Burnet! I research dreams. As part of that research, I'm investigating a certain place."
- Upon entering the Development lab
- "Whatcha think? Want to try out one of the inventions I'm developing?"
- After activating the Special Extension A
- "The Special Extension A is ready to go!"
- "I made it when the idea popped into my head while playing with magnets."
- "If you'd like, give it a try."
- After activating the Special Extension B
- "When I was cleaning my drawer, I found the Special Extension B."
- "I made this extension a while ago, but if you want to, give it a try."
- After activating the Special Extension C
- "Hey, guess what? I just found the Special Extension C."
- "I think I might've been researching the rotation of the planet at the time."
- "If you'd like, try it during your next search."
- After catching Tornadus
- "I never would have guessed that the mystery Pokémon was Tornadus!"
- "I just did a lot of research on that Tornadus..."
- "The reason that it looks different than it does in the real world is..."
- "it changed its Forme to match its environment."
- "I'll call this Forme... Therian Forme!"
- "Those other two Pokémon I saw..."
- "they must have been Therian Forme Thundurus and Landorus."
- "I'll get to work on extensions that will let you meet those two."
- "I'll need lots of Dream Orbs, but you're here, so I'm not worried!"
- "I'm counting on you! Keep up the good work!"
- After catching Thundurus
- "I knew you could do it!"
- "What you just caught now is Therian Forme Thundurus."
- "What a foreboding appearance!"
- "How wonderful! I'm sure researching Therian Forme Pokémon is important."
- "It'll be a big part of unlocking the mysteries of the Interdream Zone."
- "I'm working on an extension to find Landorus, but I need Dream Orbs."
- "I'm counting on you!"
- After catching Landorus
- "Welcome back! Thank you so much!"
- "Therian Forme Landorus! I can barely take my eyes off it."
- "What's more, researching these three Pokémon will not only teach us much about the Interdream Zone, it will also shed light on many mysteries in the real world as well."
- "It might change everything we know about dreams and reality."
- "What you found for me may be a clue about a new dimension."
- "This is a discovery for the history books."
- "My research is going to get even more interesting."
- "You've really gone above and beyond for me, but I'd be really happy if you'd come help when you have a little more time, like during breaks from your research or something like that."
- "I mean, no other researchers have instincts as good as yours."
- "Whatcha think? Hee hee."
- "I can't wait to see what you'll help me discover next!"
- After Next search:
- "Thanks for all your hard work"
- "My inventions haven't been well received by the researchers..."
- "It seems something about my devices is always a little odd."
- "I really want some fresh air. Maybe I'll go for a walk."
- "Thanks for all your efforts!"
- "When I counted them, I found out that you gathered... <number> Dream Orbs! Thanks for bringing me so many!"
- "Could people and Pokémon dream to process strange experiences?"
- "Or do we dream because sleep puts the brain in a special state?"
- "The are still many mysteries."
- "It's nice of you to work so hard, but make sure to get lots of sleep!"
Pokémon Sun and Moon
- In The Dimensional Research Lab
- "Oh, hi!"
- "You're <player>, right? Lillie told me about you."
- "She said you were the reliable sort."
- "Three months ago..."
- "I found Lillie lying on a beach."
- "Cosmog in her bag also unconscious."
- "Hm? No Hau today?"
- After Hau comes
- "I'd be happy to!"
- "The mysteries of Alola, huh? Then you've got to mean...the Ultra Wormhole!"
- "It's extremely rare, but sometimes a hole opens in the sky over Alola."
- "It appears that this rift leads to a different and unknown dimension."
- "The reason that people think there may be a mysterious dimension is because of the legends of fearsome Pokémon appearing from the Ultra Wormhole."
- "It's very weak as proof, but I can't ignore it."
- "There is also plenty of evidence already in the Pokédex for the existence of different dimensions, right?"
- "Even normal wild Pokémon sometimes attack people, right?"
- "But the Pokémon that appeared from the Ultra Wormhole went way beyond that."
- "They were called Ultra Beasts... And they were feared."
- "If the stories are to be believed, the guardian deities of the islands fought desperately against them."
- "But like I said, it's all legends and folktales. It's hard to know how much is true."
- "But I would be very happy if I somehow unravel the mysteries of the Ultra Wormhole by studying the dimensional disturbances!"
- "We've recorded several known relationships between Pokémon and different dimensions in books. You can find them on the bookshelf in this lab."
- If spoken to after conversation
- "We've recorded several known relationships between Pokémon and different dimensions in books. You can find them on the bookshelf in this lab."
- At the entrance of the Ruins of Life
- "<player>!"
- "Lillie got lost again, so I brought her here to you."
- "She couldn't even find her way to the Tide Song Hotel on her own!"
- "She said she saw Team Skull and tried to avoid them. That's why she got lost."
- "Now I've gotta go. The Masked Royal has a match, and there's no way I'm missing it!"
- "That Masked Royal...What do you think he looks like under that mask, anyway?"
- In The Dimensional Research Lab
- "Mirrors can be scary, can't they?"
- "Sometimes after I work through the night, I look into the mirror and I seem to see a stranger staring back at me."

Professor Burnet debuts in PASM04. Three months prior to the start of the Sun & Moon chapter, Burnet found Lillie lying unconscious on a beach. She is first seen with Lillie at Professor Kukui's house, where they watch a tournament being held at an Iki Town festival on the television. Burnet is excited to see the Masked Royal battle against Sun in the first round, but is disappointed when he ends up losing.

They reduced the development time for Cray Fortran programs from a year to a month. Then they ran the program, which took another month (and a bit less). Then they had the results and could throw away the program. Sounds like a winner? Sadly a month of Cray time was more expensive in 1992 than 11 month of Fortran programmer time. They had lost -- Matthias Now we programmers are cheaper still, and our tools are vastly better. Supercomputers are probably not cheaper, but now we can use lots of cheap machines. I wonder if they would win if the computation could be distributed, and if Amazon cloud will let folks rent a non-trivial collection of machines. Scheme/Lisp could help make intelligent choices about how to divide and conquer, and could craft the distributed code.

Auckland Council considers future of GMO use
Auckland Council considers future of GMO use
The Inter Council Working Party (ICWP) will today release its recommendations on risk evaluation and management options associated with the outdoor use of genetically modified organisms (GMO).
While GMOs are regulated through the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996, the ICWP recommends that councils can also regulate and manage GMOs under the Resource Management Act 1991 in their local area. The ICWP proposed plan change provisions include prohibiting the release of food and non-food related GMOs on the land or in the sea.
The Auckland Plan Committee will consider the ICWP report at their February meeting and determine whether any provisions will be included in the draft Unitary Plan, which will be released for public feedback on 15 March.
Auckland Council is a member of the ICWP along with Far North, Kaipara and Whangarei District Councils. Northland Regional Council is a member but did not participate in the project.

Revisions to Forms 1, 2, and 3
Questions and Answers - Set #3 (1/7/99)
84) The Sample Forms show the following format for the bankruptcy case number: 96-75484. The computer programs used by many trustees download the case number directly from the court. The court case numbers contain the 7 digit number shown in the Handbook, but they also may contain additional information, such as the judge's initials, an additional set of numbers to identify the division, or some other combination of letters and numbers.
a. Must the case number format reported on the Forms match the example in the Handbook?
b. Should the case number reported on the Forms match the case number that is either downloaded from the court or otherwise entered into the computer by the trustee?
Yes. The trustee's software program should not modify or truncate the case number that is downloaded from the court or entered by the trustee.
c. Must the judge's initials appear with the case number?
No. The judge's initials need not appear next to the case number unless the initials were part of the case number downloaded by the trustee.
d. May the trustee show the judge's initials somewhere else on the Forms?
Yes. The judge's initials could be shown in the margin, for example.

Catherine Tate, who played Tennant's mouthy companion Donna in the BBC sci-fi show, will play opposite the Doctor Who star in Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. It's the first time the 2 have appeared on stage together, although they get on famously. On stage they will be playing lovers who are pretty much extensions of their Doctor Who roles: Benedick and Beatrice's endless witty sparring threatens to keep them apart forever. Much Ado opens at Wyndham's Theatre in London's West End on June 1. Tate can currently be seen in the Jack Black comedy Gulliver's Travels.
David Tennant Reunites With 'Doctor Who' Co-Star
8 Comments
OMG. Please may they tape this for broadcast. I have a radio adaptation of Much Ado with Tennant as Benedick and he's brilliant. Tate would make an awesome Beatrice and I can't wait!
Does that mean he's definitely not doing The Hobbit?
I guess this dispels the rumours that David Tennant could be in The Hobbit…
This is just flat out cool. Two very good actors.
Donna was the worst Doctor Who assistant in recent years. Yap! Yap! Yap! Why he didn't just throw her to the Daleks I'll never know.
You are wrong! Catherine Tate brought a wonderful mix of drama and humour to the show. Many more people loved her as Donna Noble than disses her because she was a comedienne. They must not have realized that she is an extremely talented classically trained actress! Not only this, but she is real, in life as well as in her acting. She can bare her soul as well as give someone a reason to laugh. Tate and David Tennant made a perfectly balanced pair and together they bring both of their extreme talents together in one of the most wonderful and memerable serie ever. Maybe you prefer the female companion to remain subservient and in the background? Well, if so, I hate to inform you, those days ended when Billie, Freema and Tate became the Doctor's companions! Welcome to the 21st century!
I hope not…he's got a few months before rehearsals would start for the play (probably mid to late April(, and a few months afterward as well, as the last performance is Sept. 3rd. The Hobbit filming starts in February, and in its' entirety will take over a year for the two movies. Either of the roles he's speculated to fill would not require the entire time, so it is entirely possible for him to participate if he was able to negotiate timing (and of course if he was truly asked to take part as rumored). Who knows, he could perhaps even do a split shoot both before and after the play, especially if wearing a wig to make continuity easier.
Sadly, the play means he will be missing out on taking part in any of the US publicity for Fright Night when it comes out in the US in August…and miss the premiere stateside as well for his first major Hollywood role.
I also am praying that they film this play so those of us who can't make it to the theater can enjoy the marvelous chemistry between Catherine Tate and David Tennant! I can't wait to see it!

Fancy a drink? Our drinks columnist Sam Wylie-Harris falls for some vibrant whites, roses and reds to welcome the colours of autumn.
An autumn palate
As the leaves turn to a fiery glow and the countryside is blanketed in yellow-greens, oranges, reds and even purples and pinks, autumn's richly coloured palette is a delicious invitation to fashion our wines to cooler days, and longer nights.
In keeping with the chill in the air and a rich foliage of vibrant colour, there's a certain earthiness to fall menus which wine lovers can tune to an autumn palate, especially if the wine rack's looking a little empty.
Autumn glory also means an 'r' in the month, and the native oyster season is now in full swing. To compliment a plate of half-a-dozen, the crisp, citrus flavours of a white Bordeaux such as Chateau Saint-Jean-Des-Graves 2011, Bordeaux, France (£8.49, Waitrose) will tame this mighty mollusc. A 50/50 blend of the region's main grapes, sauvignon blanc and semillon, it's rich and aromatic and the limey crisp acidity on the finish balances the sweet flesh of shellfish, and works beautifully with firm, white fish.
A southern, warm-climate chardonnay is fruitier than its leaner Chablis cousins, and Le Manoir Du Baron Chardonnay 2011, France (£5, Asda) is a creamy, nutty white with some minerality that can be enjoyed on its own; with creamy pasta dishes or poached skate with an autumnal chanterelle mushroom ragout for a seasonal treat.
Provençal roses taste too good to limit to summer sipping, and rosy pinks such as Taste The Difference Cotes De Provence Rose 2011, France (£7.99, Sainsbury's) pairs extremely well with lobster bisque, bouillabaisse and battered fish. Fresh and off-dry, citrus and floral fruits dominate the nose and palate with pleasant acidity, and a hint of spice on the finish makes this TTD rose an absolute delight.
Deeper and more concentrated, the lollipop pink of Tesco Finest Navarra Garnacha Rose 2011, Spain (£6.99, Tesco) is an indication to the wine's weight. If you're planning a spicy Oriental or Asian meal to blast away the grey skies, this zippy rose impressively treads a tightrope between sweet and dry by combining strawberry and vanilla notes with a dry finish; just perfect as an accompaniment to chilli flavours and best served well chilled.
With the surge in popularity for South American wines, it's easy to forget that malbec originates from south west France - even though it has made its home in Argentina. To go back to its roots, try matching Rigal L'Instant Truffier Malbec Red PGI Cotes Du Lot 2011, France (£8.99, Majestic) with roasts and casseroles. A silky malbec with classic black cherry, plums and violet scented fruit, it's not as loaded as some Argentinian versions, and smooth tannins with a hint of vanilla on the finish make it extremely moreish.
Easy-drinking Rioja's such as Baron De Ley Varietales Graciano 2009, Spain (£7.99, Tesco) made from the graciano grape, indigenous to the Rioja region, remind us that autumnal reds don't have to be heavy. Elegant and aromatic with a violet nose, blackberry and raspberry flavours and notes of black cherry and vanilla, this smooth, medium-bodied Rioja is the perfect accompaniment to a ricotta and rocket vegetable tagliatelle.
Southern Rhone producer Ogier are famed for their Chateauneuf-du-Pape, and their Lirac Domaine Des Garrigues 2011, France (£9.99, Majestic) is a good entry level ruby red for a taste of this famous pebbly terroir. Smooth and medium-bodied with a nice lift to the raspberry and black fruit flavours, minerally notes, finishing with a hint of aniseed, it's delicious with casseroles and spicy meat dishes.
Or for an autumn blockbuster from Languedoc producer Jeanjean, who has linked up with one of the region's leading co-operatives to produce this ripe and lush Corbieres, try Les Hauts De Castelmaure 2009 Corbieres, France (£11.99, Majestic). A good nosing wine with violet notes and concentrated, perfumed fruit, it's rich and spicy with good acidity and gentle tannins that linger nicely on the finish. An equal blend of carignan and grenache with a splash of syrah, it's a terrific choice with a Sunday roast and selection of fine English cheeses.

Nyetimber to pass on 2012 harvest... For the first time in its 24 year history, England's largest wine estate, Nyetimber, has decided not to harvest grapes to preserve the quality of its sparkling wines. The result of unusually poor weather conditions, Cherie Spriggs, Nyetimber winemaker, says: "The decision not to make wine from 2012 is a difficult one. However, we all know that maintaining quality is paramount. To ensure the quality of Nyetimber's wines, we have collectively come to the decision that the grapes from 2012 cannot deliver the standards we have achieved in the past, and will again in the future."

"This Film..." was the best documentary I saw this year. It delves into the shadowy world of the MPAA's rating system and the way that it forms a nearly invisible but all-encompassing censorship regime that punishes indie filmmakers far more than the major studios, who run it. The censor board is set up like a star chamber, the members, criteria, and appeals process shrouded in secrecy (Dick punctures the veil by hiring a charming private eye to uncover and reveal the hidden identities of the censors). The MPAA ratings process has been called "Jack Valenti's other mistake" -- apart from seeking wildly expanded copyright, that is.
It's an honor to be introducing Mr Dick and his movie -- he's a brilliant film-maker with something to say and real courage of his convictions. I hope to see you there tonight.

Lancaster University to host new research centre on energy DEMAND
Date: 17 December 2012
From May 2013, Elizabeth Shove, from the Sociology Department at Lancaster University, will be Co-Director of a new cross-Faculty, RCUK-funded research centre, DEMAND: The Dynamics of Energy, Mobility and Demand. With funding of around £5 million over five years, the DEMAND centre, funded by RCUK, will undertake a 5 year interdisciplinary research programme in collaboration with 7 other University partners. The core group will include Leeds Institute for Transport Studies and EDF R&D's European Centre and Labs for Energy Efficiency Research based in Paris, with contributions from researchers at Aberdeen, Birmingham, Manchester, Reading, Sheffield, Sussex and UCL. Professor Gordon Walker (Lancaster Environment Centre) will also be Co-Director of the Centre; others involved at Lancaster will include Dr James Faulconbridge (Organisation Work and Technology) and Dr Mike Hazas (School of Computing and Communications).
The DEMAND Centre (Dynamics of Energy, Mobility and Demand) will take a distinctive approach to end use energy demand. In essence, the Centre will focus on what energy is for, recognising that energy is not used for its own sake but as part of accomplishing social practices at home, at work and in moving around. This approach will inform an ambitious research agenda, developing a more sophisticated understanding of the underlying dynamics of demand itself through examining patterns in mobility and building-related energy use and the processes through which trends towards more resource-intensive standards of comfort, convenience and speed take hold. The Centre will take forward a wide-ranging agenda for future research and policy, one which will be crucial for organisations involved in demand management and in radically reconfiguring infrastructures, buildings and transport systems in line with greenhouse gas emissions targets.
There have been a number of other recent research funding successes in the Department:

Discussion in 'Members Zone' started by Sarge, Aug 14, 2009.
Good morning, Cbz and good morning, Zoners. The weekend beckons!
Morning Pop's and all the faithful. Sitting in a La Quinta in Memphis, waiting for three granddaughters to wake up so we can head to the mountains! Quality fishing/ zip lining/ hiking time ahead, I fear.
Morning, Pops. Morning ologan and all late risers. Welcome to the weekend!
Morning Pops --Morning all tell your spouse to do the honey do list them-self and go play. You have Leon's permission . If they don't like it call me and I'll give them his number. Carry on
Thanks, Buddy ol' pal. Hell hath no fury... and I'm now right in it's path. lol
Morning, Pops and all. Have a blessed day and enjoy.
Morning Pops and all. We're off to see my son and wife as she has their first.. And deliver them a car so I can get mine back. Have a great weekend all.
Morning Pop's, Leon, Jobb, and late arriving crew. Peaceful this morning.......three granddaughters still sleeping. Will have to sound reville soon enough to get them ready for church.
Where you heading, Jobb? Have any extra cars you don't need?? I'll take a spare Lexus.....if not, a cadillac will do. I'll even come get it!
Have a great day, all!
Good evening,Cbz and all Zoners. I missed the directive on the honey-do list. I've been trapped in a messy garage all day.
Morning, Pops and everybody. Have a great day.
Morning Pop's, Leon, and all on this Monday before our first "game". Thought it would never get here. Glad we're in the HOF game.....don't know if I could have lasted another week!
Did you find me a car yet, Jobb?
Morning Pops. Morning to all the regulars.
Back from vacation and good to be home. Tired but all is well. Hope everybody here has been hanging in for the last few days.
Be well everyone!
Well, I gave my Maxima to my son and brought the Vette I gave him home to repair it. He's trashed it. Bought a Prius to take to them so I could have my Maxima back. I had never had a problem with the Maxima; ever ever. I get to Clemson and it runs hot. Take it to the dealer and leave it. They add coolant and say its fine. He has it a week and gets in the car to go to the hospital and the battery is dead. Take him and daughter there for scheduled induction. Buy a battery on the way back to his home 40 mins away. Get battery in and a few minutes later she's going to the OR for a C-section. So we rush back and the babies born a few minutes before we get there.
Now the ex's car is also trashed albeit still struggling on. So she'll be asking for a car soon along with a daughter right after son gets one. And the other son says his bumper is falling off and the tires are getting worn.
So no you don't get a Lexus.
Everyone have a great day. Off to see the family and my new grandson!
Glad you are back. Hope you all had a great time. Some of us have been hanging and some hanging on!
Good morning, Cbz and congratulations on being a grampa, Jobberone. Sounds like cars are a challenge for your relatives. Take care and enjoy the day.
First and foremost, congrats on the new arrival! I would start putting money away NOW for the new grandson's car in 16-18 years. Does sound like your family is a little rough on transportation.
Morning, Pops. Morning everyone. Congrats on the new baby in the family, Jobber.
Morning Pop's, Leon, and those still snoozing! Up before granddaughters to enjoy peace and get a little done before bedlam breaks loose. I'm not complaining, and will miss the bee hive of activity when they have to head home this Friday to start school. But till then, it's off to the zip line course today, then waterfall hikes, then home for the rest of the day. Charge!!!!!!
Morning Pops, Leon, ologan, Phil, ABQ, JB and all the rest of the guys/girls. Hope all have a great day. Stay out of trouble ologan. We're going to the hospital later on then back home.
Good morning, Cbz and good morning, Zoners. Ologan, ot sounds like being active is second nature to you and your family. Enjoy the day, everyone.

Wed. January 16, 2013 | Joey Knight | Email
The college options appear to be increasing for Connor Rafferty even as USF takes strides to mend fences with the Robinson left tackle, who received a scholarship offer from former coach Skip Holtz and committed last summer.
The Tampa Bay Times first reported Rafferty received a late-night phone call Sunday from new Bulls offensive coordinator Walt Wells. According to the player's mom, Wells told Rafferty he didn't fit into the plans of new Bulls coach Willie Taggart's staff.
The news set off a flurry of discussion in cyberspace and on local radio airwaves, particularly in light of USF athletic director Doug Woolard's prior assertion that all players who committed to USF before Holtz's dismissal would have their scholarships honored.
On Wednesday, USF spokesman Jeremy Sharpe said Woolard's statement remains true and always has. Per NCAA rules, no school representative is permitted to comment specifically about a recruit until they have signed a national letter of intent.
Tracy Rafferty said Connor's dad, Robin Rafferty has a meeting scheduled with USF coaches Thursday at noon. Meantime, former Knights coach Mike DePue said he has heard from two Bulls coaches -- including Taggart -- who have acknowledged a miscommunication.
"It was really unfortunate," DePue said. "As they say, it was a faux pas on their part."
Meantime, Rafferty has received offers from two Division I-AA schools -- Eastern Kentucky and Samford -- since Monday. Division I Buffalo also has made inquiries about him, DePue said.
Another Knights lineman, Bruce Hector, remains committed to USF for now. DePue said he'll support Rafferty even if he chooses to stick with USF.
"There's no vendetta," DePue said.

MP3: Digits – Lost Dream
February 11, 2011
The first time I listened to "Lost Dream" by Digits I liked it. The second time I listened to it, I really liked it. By the third time, I couldn't wait to hear it a fourth. Upon doing some research I was surprised to discover that minimalistic synth-pop band, Digits was actually just one guy from Toronto by the name of Alt Altman, which is all the more impressive. What makes "Lost Dream" so endlessly appealing is Altman's unconventional approach to pop music. The multiple layers of percussion, bass guitar and various synthesizers weaving in and out throughout the track make the altering pace of the song all the more interesting, while avoiding crossing the line into self-indulgence. The ridiculously catchy tempo, combined with Digit's glossy and echo-like voice, truly establishes a Geographer meets Cut Copy techno-feel.
Digits' website has more tracks.

Prince Charles does TV weathercast in Scotland
LONDON (AP) – If this king thing doesn't work out, Prince Charles may be able to fall back on a budding career as a weatherman.
The heir to the British throne and his wife Camilla gave it a try Thursday, each reading out weather reports during a visit to BBC studios in Glasgow, Scotland.
The sight of the nattily dressed Charles giving a credible performance in the unfamiliar role caused many Britons to do a double-take as he read the lunchtime news weather spot.
Palace officials say Charles and Camilla were visiting the studios to mark the 60-year anniversary of BBC TV Scotland.

The Pitfalls of Shared Servers
The majority of websites are run on a shared server. There are definite advantages and disadvantages to placing your site on a shared server. This article will detail the most common complaints from shared hosting customers.
While these complaints may not be typical of every single shared hosting package, in general, they are quite ordinary complaints.
Slow Server Speed. When you put twenty different sites on the same server, it means that each one of these sites is draining the system resources of the server. This can result in a great reduction of processing speed, making your site as slow as molasses.
In addition, other system resources, such as RAM can be affected. If there is one site on the server that is very popular and highly trafficked, this site will be taking resources away from yours.
Security Issues. Since you are sharing a server with possibly 20 or more other webmasters, there are definite security issues that affect shared hosting customers. If one of your server companions is into hacking, your site and your data may be compromised.
This means that all it takes is one malicious hacker with a handy script to lose all of your customer's information if you are an ecommerce site, or your personal data if your site is simply a personal site.
Delay in Support. When you are hosting your site with a company that has several hundred other customers, this can result in a delay in receiving a timely support response. While many companies put forth extra effort for their customers, they cannot help if they are inundated with requests at the same time.
More Downtime. Servers that are packed with different accounts, that are constantly draining resources can become unstable. This means that you may experience more downtime on a shared server. If the other site owners are running applications that cause frequent crashes, this can become an almost daily event. If you need your site to be up the majority of the time, this can be very annoying.
Although the major inducement to purchase a shared server package is price, you may not be getting your money's worth. If you are frequently experiencing downtime, you are losing customers or visitors that may have contributed to your revenue stream.
Before deciding on a hosting plan, try to find out how many people the host allows to share one server. A good host will put a limit on this number and they will not exceed it. Shared hosting does not have to be a nightmare, but it requires a host that is committed not only to support, but one that will avoid cramming as many sites on one server that they can.Related Posts:

Twin Virtues: Inequality of Outcomes & Equality of Opportunity©
Twin Virtues
Ultimately, the most successful societies find the balance between the twin virtues of inequality of outcomes and equality of opportunity.
The new politics must marry the twin virtues of unequal outcomes and equality of opportunity.
When too few get too much everybody loses.
Feminism is about women living their lives on their own terms, marshalling the resources of the society to make that possible, and men embracing this as vital to a successful society and their own liberation.
Can it be that striving for equality of opportunity however imperfect the process not only benefits the individual but also creates benefits for the society that are unintended but wonderful?
Economics must be a 'moral enterprise' as much as politics claims to be. Economic outcomes need to be framed in terms of right and wrong not just efficiency if only because these often align in surprising ways that are good for society and the economy.
My vision of Canada is that any Canadian child from a family of limited circumstance can expect to have a chance at lifetime of unlimited opportunities.
Free trade is a wonderful thing. Time and time again economists have proven that free trade creates enormous wealth for each country 'on the whole'. Historians have shown that free trade is usually associated with rising political, social and cultural liberty. The perennial problem is that free trade always creates tremendous disruption for thousands even millions of individuals often concentrated in one geography, and where the state is idle, not investing in best in class instruments of social justice, free trade can be a permanent ticket out of the middle class, down, not up.
Tax policy should be founded on the principle of generating steady tax revenues sufficient to maximise environmentally sustainable economic growth in order to fund fair government.
Public policy should be designed to decrease inequality before the law and increase equality of opportunity.
Capitalism is not the problem; the problem is what we do with capitalism.
Content is always more difficult to argue than conspiracy.
Let the state regulate and the market operate (most things).
Welfare strategies are best designed as a hand up, not as a hand out.
Political debate should not be fact free fighting.
Explanation lasts longer than eloquence.
Always favour empowerment over dependency.
The most enduring public figures are embraced for the causes they fought for and not the concept of themselves they hoped others would remember them by.
Find your voice and don't be the echo of somebody else.
It is possible to operate on two different levels: the practical, cautious and conservative; and the realm of ideas, open, free, and radical.

Jan 20, 2013 - StaffGeorge E. Hill died Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2013, at Central Wyoming Hospice following a lengthy battle with cancer. He was 62 years old.
Services will be at 3 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 20, at Bustard's Funeral home in Casper.
George Edward Hill was born March 23, 1950, in Riverton. As a child, he spent much of his time on his stepfather's Mitten Ranch on the Sweetwater.
He developed a great love for that area and for the ranching lifestyle.
He graduated from Riverton High School in 1968 and shortly after married Sylvia Isaac. They had three children and later divorced.
As a young man, Mr. Hill had a variety of jobs including farming, ranching and working in the oil field as a derrick hand. Most recently he worked as an over-the-road truck driver, which turned out to be his passion. His family said he loved the open road.
He is survived by his daughters, Renae Thayer and Michelle Cantine; son Jeremy Hill; grandsons Donovan and Patrik, Dee Hixon, Tess and Jon Chavez and all of their children and grandchildren; and several extended family members and close friends.
He was preceded in death by his father, Howard Poe Hill; mother Violet May Iturrian; sister Grace Lorraine Stokes; and brother Howard John Hill; stepfather Benny Iturrian; and dear friend Susan Guthrie.
The family requests that donations be made to Central Wyoming Hospice or the American Cancer Society.
Condolences for the family may be left at bustardsfuneralhome.com.
