Berlin (AFP) Nov 14, 2012
Germany revealed details of its likely drawdown plan for Afghanistan on Wednesday with the aim of seeing its number of troops fall to 3,300 by February 2014, two ministers said.
Germany currently has around 4,800 troops in Afghanistan, the third largest contingent under NATO's International Security Assistance Force, behind Britain's 9,500 troops and some 68,000 US soldiers.
Defence Minister Thomas de Maiziere and Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said Germany was continuing a gradual withdrawal of soldiers more than a decade after their deployment, from an all-time high of 5,350 a year ago.
The ministers said the cabinet would decide by the end of the month on the target of 3,300 troops by February 2014, and the Bundestag lower house of parliament would vote soon afterward.
By January 2013, the number should already sink to 4,400.
Germany has agreed with its NATO partners to gradually pull combat forces out of the country by the end of 2014 as Afghan troops assume more responsibility for security.
But it plans to maintain a military presence from 2015 assisting Afghan forces.
During a visit to Kabul on Monday, De Maiziere told a press conference with his Afghan counterpart Bismullah Khan Mohammadi that the reduction of the German troop deployment would be "reliable, sufficient and sustainable".

Hay and pellets Guinea pigs should have hay available at all times. The best hay to feed your guinea pig is timothy or oat hay. Alfalfa hay is too rich in calcium and protein and should be given only sparingly. Fortified guinea pig pellets can be fed in small amounts in addition to hay.
Vitamin C Guinea pigs have a unique requirement for vitamin C. Adult guinea pigs require 20-25 mg/day while pregnant guinea pigs need 30-40 mg of vitamin C per day. Since they usually do not get sufficient quantities from their pellets and hay, their diet needs to be supplemented with vitamin C. Therefore, a variety of fresh vegetables rich in vitamin C should be offered daily. Excellent choices would include red pepper, kale, turnip greens, mustard greens, other dark green leafy vegetables and sugar snap or snow peas, . It is always best to feed a mixture of vegetables, instead of just one kind, to prevent mineral imbalances. Feed only small amounts of fruit - papaya, strawberries and kiwi are some of the fruits with the highest vitamin C content.
Especially for guinea pigs who may not be eating well, vitamin C supplementation in the form of drops or tablets should be provided. Generally, adding vitamin C to the drinking water is not advised for two main reasons. First, if the guinea pig does not like the taste of the supplement, he may not drink the water, and could become dehydrated. Secondly, vitamin C is not stable, and will degrade in light, heat and moisture. There are some human pediatric vitamin C products available as tablets and syrups, that can be given directly to the guinea pig. The Oxbow company has a vitamin C tablet specifically for guinea pigs (GTN-50C®) that most seem to enjoy.
When to feed
Unlimited amounts of grass hay (they will eat a lot!) and fresh water should be available at all times. Small amounts of quality pellets (around 1/8 cup) can be given. Provide fresh vegetables several times a day, always removing any leftovers from the previous feeding. It is a good idea to monitor weight with a small gram scale so you will know if your guinea pig is losing or gaining weight.
Guinea pigs develop dietary preferences very early in life, so it is important to acquaint them with many types of food while they are young. Outside of this basic, staple diet of hay, pellets, and fresh vegetables and fruits, anything else should be considered a treat and fed sparingly. This diet will ensure a long, trim, and healthy life for your favorite pig.

(ROCHESTER, N.Y. – June 6, 2011) – SUNY Empire State College's Genesee Valley Center will recognize 229 candidates at its graduation ceremony on Sunday, June 12 at 2 p.m. at the Rochester Riverside Convention Center.
An honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree will be conferred on former SUNY Empire State College President Joseph B. Moore, who currently is serving as president of Lesley University in Massachusetts.
He will be recognized for his contribution to the physical growth and educational reach of Empire State College during his tenure, including the establishment of the Master of Arts in Teaching degree program. Marshall Lichtman, SUNY trustee is invited, and is expected to take part in conferring the degree on Moore.
"Graduation is the best day of the year in the life of the college," said Dean Jonathan Franz, of the Genesee Valley Center. "Our graduates, faculty and staff who support them have worked hard and we are proud to celebrate this important milestone in their lives. Congratulations go to our graduates and my appreciation and thanks go to our outstanding faculty and staff."
"The majority of our students are busy people who study part time and juggle careers, families, civic and volunteer responsibilities in their communities. After graduation, most stay here and continue to have a positive social and economic impact in New York," said President Alan R. Davis. "Whether they have studied at any of our 35 locations in New York, online through our Center for Distance Learning, or increasingly a combination of both, we are proud to confer a SUNY degree to each and every one of them. They truly are 'The Power of SUNY.'"
This year, 10 Dean's Medals will be awarded for the first time to recipients in the School for Graduate Studies who have excelled in their research efforts. More information about, and a list of, the first-ever Dean's Medal recipients is available here .
Dean Robert Clougherty, of the School for Graduate Studies, said, "It gives me great pleasure to recognize these graduate students in this way. Graduate work is challenging and rewarding – especially when juggling work and family responsibilities. And since we all know that the job market they face upon graduation is uncertain, I am truly thrilled that I have the opportunity to say to these hard-working students, job well done."
All across New York state, from Long Island's shores to Manhattan, the Canadian boarder, Albany, the Hudson Valley, Syracuse, Rochester and west to Buffalo, more than 3,000 SUNY Empire State College graduates will receive diplomas this spring.
Celebrating its 40th anniversary throughout 2011, SUNY Empire State College was established in 1971 to offer adult learners the opportunity to earn associate, bachelor's and master's degrees from the State University of New York. Students learn through independent studies, online courses, seminars and residencies. Learners also may earn credit for prior college-level learning from work and life experience.
The college serves more than 20,000 students worldwide at 35 locations in New York state and online. Its 60,000 alumni are active in their communities as entrepreneurs, politicians, business professionals, artists, not-for-profit agency employees, teachers, veterans and active military, union members and more.

Sugared Woodchuck with Gangsta Pudding, Anyone?
Woodchuck - it's what's for (virtual) dinner
The restaurant world can almost be boiled down to two basic kinds of restaurants -- restaurants that serve simple dishes and restaurants that have menus that read more Cirque du Soleil than food.
Consider Miami's own Barton G. restaurant. Dishes include cheeky monkey mahi, lobster pop tarts and coconut-crusted voodoo shrimp (served over a smoking devil's brew). These dishes are designed to intrigue with their names and taste combinations, but no one's ever going to accuse this restaurant of being too restrained.
With more and more people turning to food for entertainment, Short Order
wondered if there was any limit to frou frou dining in the land of more is more? What's next? Coddled newt with creamy polenta? Stir-fried fox with cotton candy breading? Yes! ... and no.
The Frou Frou Restaurant Menu Generator randomly chooses a menu of exotic delights for you to savor with your imagination. When we took the generator for a spin, we were given the following menu to consider:
- Sugared Elk with Brussel Sprout Vinaigrette
- Pan-Fried Prarie Dog with Gin Paste
- Seared Boar with Brazen Dressing
- Sugared Woodchuck with Gangsta Pudding
- Fried Lion with Lima Bean Dressing
generator is fun for a few tries, but we're not sure Miami's ready for
fried lion. Plus, we have no freaking clue what gangsta pudding is. For
now, we'll stick to the lobster pop-tarts.

The Daily Caller is an American news and opinion website based in Washington, D.C. It was founded by Tucker Carlson, a libertarian conservative[2][3] political pundit, and Neil Patel, former adviser to former Vice President Dick Cheney. The site's coverage includes politics, business, world news, entertainment, sports, education, technology, outdoors, and energy.
The Daily Caller launched on January 11, 2010 as a more politically conservative[4][5] news and commentary outlet and alternative to the liberal The Huffington Post, similarly featuring sections in broad range of subjects beyond politics. By late 2012, The New York Times reported that the site had quadrupled its page view and total audience and had become profitable without ever buying an advertisement for itself.[6]
Vince Coglianese has served as the publication's editor-in-chief since Carlson left to focus on his television program Tucker Carlson Tonight.[7]
The Daily Caller was founded by Tucker Carlson and Neil Patel. After raising $3 million in funding from businessman Foster Friess, the website was launched on January 11, 2010. The organization started with a reporting staff of 21 in its Washington office.
By 2013, the site was receiving over 35 million views a month according to Quantcast, surpassing rival sites such as The Washington Times, Politico, and Forbes.[8] The site has an active community, with over 200,000 comments made each month.
Notable figures have commented on The Daily Caller. Karl Rove said that, "The Daily Caller is necessary reading for anyone who wants to be up to speed with what's going on with politics in America." Larry Kudlow referred to the site as, "one of my faves."[8]
Staff and contributors[edit]
The Daily Caller is in the White House rotating press pool and has full-time reporters on Capitol Hill.[9] Notable staff and columnists include Ann Coulter and Ginni Thomas.[10] In addition to these columnists, The Daily Caller has many contributors for a variety topics, including many prominent politicians, businessmen and academics. Formerly, bloggers included The Week contributing editor Matt K. Lewis[11] and Matt Labash.
Contributors to The Daily Caller include economist Larry Kudlow, Congressman Mark Sanford, sculptor Robert Mihaly, and diplomat Alan Keyes.[12][13][14]
The Daily Caller also hosts The Mirror, a blog written by former FishbowlDC editor and The Hill columnist Betsy Rothstein. The Mirror covers media in Washington D.C., news related to journalism organizations, as well as political and media related gossip. The tagline is, "Reflections of a self-obsessed city."[15][16] DC Trawler is a blog by polical humorist Jim Treacher.[17][18]
Political stance[edit]
When it first launched in January 2010, Mercedes Bunz, writing for The Guardian, said The Daily Caller was "setting itself up to be the conservative answer to The Huffington Post". According to Bunz, a year before the website launched, Carlson promoted it as "a new political website leaning more to the right than Politico and TalkingPointsMemo". However, at launch, he wrote a letter to readers that said it was not going to be a right-wing site.[19] During a January 2010 interview with Politico, Carlson said The Daily Caller was not going to be tied to his personal political ideologies and that he wanted it to be "breaking stories of importance".[20] In a Washington Post article about The Caller's launch, Howard Kurtz wrote, "[Carlson's] partner is Neil Patel, a former Dick Cheney aide. His opinion editor is Moira Bagley, who spent 2008 as the Republican National Committee's press secretary. And his $3 million in funding comes from Wyoming financier Foster Friess, a big-time GOP donor. But Carlson insists this won't be a right-wing site". Kurtz quoted Carlson as saying, "We're not enforcing any kind of ideological orthodoxy on anyone".[21] In an interview with The New York Times, Carlson said that the vast majority of traditional reporting comes from a liberal point of view and called The Daily Caller's reporting "the balance against the rest of the conventional press".[6]
In a 2012 Washingtonian article, Tom Bartlett said Carlson and Patel developed The Daily Caller as "a conservative news site in the mold of the liberal Huffington Post but with more firearms coverage and fewer nipple-slip slide shows".[22] In February 2012, an internet marketing research firm found that a majority (64.8 percent) of The Daily Caller's site visitors to be self-identified political Republicans; of the remaining visitors, independents outnumbered Democrats 26.8 percent to 8.6 percent.[23]
Disputed prostitution allegations[edit]
In March 2013 The Daily Caller posted interviews with two women claiming that New Jersey Democratic Senator Bob Menendez had paid them for sex while he was a guest of a campaign donor.[24] The allegation came five days before the 2012 New Jersey senate election. News organizations such as ABC News, which had also interviewed the women, the New York Times, and the New York Post declined to publish the allegations, viewing them as unsubstantiated and lacking credibility.[25][26][27] Subsequently, one of the women who accused Menendez stated that she had been paid to falsely implicate the senator and had never met him.[25][28] Menendez's office described the allegations as "manufactured" by a right-wing blog as a politically motivated smear.[29]
A few weeks later, police in the Dominican Republic announced that three women had claimed they were paid $300–425 each to lie about having had sex with Menendez.[30] Dominican law enforcement also alleged that the women had been paid to lie about Menendez by an individual claiming to work for The Daily Caller. The Daily Caller denied this allegation, stating: "At no point did any money change hands between The Daily Caller and any sources or individuals connected with this investigation".[31] Describing what it saw as the unraveling of The Daily Caller's "scoop", the Poynter Institute wrote: The Daily Caller stands by its reports, though apparently doesn't feel the need to prove its allegations right".[32]
Fox News controversy[edit]
In March 2015 Daily Caller columnist Mickey Kaus quit after editor Tucker Carlson refused to run a column critical of Fox News coverage of the immigration policy debate.[33] Carlson, who also works for Fox, reportedly did not want the Caller publishing criticism of a firm that employed him.[34] Journalist Neil Munro quit two weeks later.[35]

The litigation over promotion tests for Chicago's firefighters is by no means over, despite a 2010 trip to the U.S. Supreme Court. (See www.theHRSpecialist.com/Chicagofirefighters.) The case is again working its way through the legal system—something that carries a lesson for all employers.
Recent case: In 1995, Chicago gave firefighters a promotion test and created three promotion groups, each with a score cutoff. The second group was deemed qualified for promotion, but those candidates were told they probably wouldn't be selected. Instead, Chicago randomly chose candidates from the highest-scoring group.
Several black second-tier firefighters sued, alleging the promotion exam had a disparate impact on them and pointing out that they were excluded even though they fell into the qualified category.
The Supreme Court ruled that each time the city drew names from the top group, the black firefighters could sue. It sent the case back to the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals, which has now ruled that Chicago would have to show a valid reason for its selections each time it drew names.
Essentially, it will have to show that picking exclusively from the first group each time is consistent with business necessity. (Lewis, et al., v. City of Chicago, No. 07-2052, 7th Cir., 2011)
Final note: Always consider potential litigation when using hiring or promotion tests. That's especially true if, as in this case, the test excludes some candidates who might be qualified. Unless you can justify why those candidates were excluded, courts will be suspicious.

The original inhabitants of Australia who have occupied the continent for at least 40,000 years (or maybe even 60,000 years). The Aborigines arrived either by way of the now-submerged Sahul Shelf or by rafts and canoes, in one or more waves.
The people and languages (or dialects) were associated with stretches of territory, and the largest entities recognized by the people were language-named groups. These groups made up smaller, local groups (clans) which consisted not only of men and women but also of several species. A group bore the name of one of these species, its totem. The men of the clan were divided into moieties, with each man (or woman) custodian of the mythology, ritual, sites, and symbols associated with one or more natural species and with ancestral heroes. Through ritual reenactment, the creative past became operative in the present, and the life of species and man was assured. The myths and ritual constituted the Dreaming, or Dreamtime, which signified the continuity of life unlimited by space and time.
In the late 18th century there was an estimated population that ranged from 300,000 to more than 1,000,000, but after contact with Europeans their numbers have been decimated by dispossession, poverty, cultural dislocation, and disease. In the mid-eighties they numbered fewer than 230,000, less than 2 percent of the total population of Australia.

Kimpton EPIC Hotel
Top Boutique Hotel
270 Biscayne Boulevard Way, Miami, FL
0.3 km from
rooms restrant on site zuma is amazing in the heart of downtown 39 dollars a night valet and no adult pool also pull was a bit small for the size of the hotel. during spa the zen room you could hear the music blasting through the wall
Fun lively noisy location in downtown Miami We were not given the room we ordered but they did try to make up for the error.
Loved the location, restaurant and bars I wish they had coffee available for longer in the am, start earlier and end later, I missed it every day, either I was leaving to early or too late
Hotel facilities seemed good but couldn't use many of them. Pool overrun by near-naked chemically stimulated revelers. Incredibly noisy till small hours of morning. Phones in room didn't work.
Fantastic views, great location, comfortable beds. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Clean, nice room Our shower, nor our phones, did not work. Fortunately, we were only staying for a single night, which made the problem not a big deal. Also, pools were not heated. They have two BEAUTIFUL pools, but no one dared to be in them at all because they were absolutely freezing. A shame, really.
Room quality, location, pool, gym, breakfast area, Lobby, In-Room dining experience was terrific. Bed linens were not soft, very rough and low quality. Pillows much to big and thick, no choices for pillows. Took one hour and three calls to get extra towels.
This hotel is the go-to for my wife and I whenever we're in Miami. The staff is fantastic and the rooms are beautiful! Very close to incredible restaurants and bars too! Nada
No good signal tv, I can not go to pool for private pool party.
The staff went over and beyond to help make our stay comfortable-including an early check in and later check out to accommodate our flights. Well done! Rooms are nice size and had great views of the harbor and city lights. Would definitely come back again! Price for parking is steep.
The views were pretty nice. The room was comfortable, except for the constant racket of music, construction and traffic, not to mention the binging from the elevator Super noisy. Disorganized. Staff not very helpful Somewhat snobby clientele.
Outstanding service Exceptional experience We have stayed at Epic many times, but this was the first time bringing the kids. The kids had a wonderful time. As a family we cannot wait to come back!! each stay at Epic has been an exceptional experience, which is why it's our hotel of choice when visiting Miami.
Location and staff Dirty, loudy, parking, people hosted.
Nothing. Smells bad and the rooms are not clean as expected Smelly lobby, rude front desk dirty rooms
I was in town for a conference, and the staff were wonderfully helpful, the room was quite nice, and the hotel amenities were great. A nice alternative and well worth the cost
it was convenient to the Whole Foods and the bed was comfortable. decor was dated and drab air conditioner was not reliable noisy noisy noisy at the pool you can smell grease and smog
Proximity to bayfront park and American Airlines Arena while costing significantly less than competitors. If you don't mind walking 6 minutes and want to save $100, this may be for you. The feel of the hotel is a bit old. Old school card scanners on doors, carpet a bit dated, but still clean. Under an airport route, but what hotel downtown isn't? Lower floors will hear traffic.
Loved the room service, cleanliness, everything was delivered on time. Perfect location. Absolutely amazing. The paid parking is a bit of a pain in the neck
Nice hotel Mold in bathroom and do not validate parking
Loved the location of hotel. Was able to walk to diffent places without having to drive. Staff was very friendly and helpul. Greeted you with a smile at all times. Room was clean and really nice view. This was my first time visiting Miami and I didn't like the fact that the hotel doesn't offer free parking like in other places I've stayed at. Seems this is everywhere in Miami. The phone in the room didn't work and was not even connected. I tried to connect it to the wall outlet, but there was no dial tone.
Ambiance was good. Staff was courteous. Breakfast was excellent. No clear direction in the parking garage. No coffee maker in the room, only 2 pack of ground coffee, how do I make coffee without hot water and coffee maker? We booked a king size bed and there was only ONE pillow on the bed. How can I be a king with only one pillow?!
Suit was really nice and not expensive
Outdated rooms/bathroom
Location Bathroom was not maintained. Tub was plugged and shower needs to be replaced.
Not much Pool next to very busy highway
as soon as I arrive with a reservation, they told me that they were full and I didn't have a room in that hotel so they change me to another Marriott
Great hotel, nice rooms and helpful staff. Valet parking too expensive.
Facilities Towels
Luxurious accommodations, incredible views. Room service was very good. Valet parking always seems to be the weak link at many hotels. Nothing horrific, just not up to the standard represented at this property.
The facilities were all wonderful. The views spectacular. The pool area and gym are outstanding. Parking is way too expensive. I had a problem with the television set in the bathroom, the remote simply would not work. I asked for help on this three times and each time they could send someone to turn it on but they could never tell me how to turn it on.
I loved everything about it, great service, nice people, the room was nice and perfect, and it had a perfect view, it was great and if I ever go back to miami, I would know where to go and stay.
We stayed three nights for our anniversary and we had an amazing time. The rooms are very modern and clean with super views over the bay amd the city. The staff was very friendly wherever you run into them. Walking distance to lots of activities (boat rides, jer skis, American Airlines arena, restaurants, etc..) highly recommended!!!
The hotel is very well appointed: from the lobby to common areas and, most notable the rooms. Everything is clean, crisp and well conceived and executed.
The wifi didn't seem to work, luckily I was close enough to the lobby to use that.
The rooms are amazing, well appointed, loved the bed! Service is top notch too Long wait for the valet, call early!
Rooms are spacious and beautifully done--esp. the bathroom. Huge TV. I like the location for downtown - great for walking. Lobby sparce, chaotic and unwelcoming. Valet was told it would be 20 min., but it was not that long. Event was happening , so lots of arrivals and tight spot to get a lot of cars coming and going.
Amazing room, will definitely go here again. Staff was helpful in providing a room when Amoma failed to make a reservation for the hotel. If you are booking a hotel room from kayak through a third party, buyers stay away from Amoma!
Modern, cool, hip--like all W Hotels. Unlike some, there wasn't loud music playing at 3 am at the upstairs club. View is great. Gym is good, but a bit of a haul to get to as it is in a different building. Hotel messed up my bill quite badly and overcharged me by about $500. Only attempted to resolve after I had to intervene at check-out and again over the phone (and I still haven't seen the final refund come through via the bank). Additionally, while I was having dinner, the bartender at the restaurant came up while he was on Skype with his son and was like--"look at this beautiful woman eating by herself!" It felt a bit invasive.
The W Miami is a beautiful hotel with amazing amenities. The rooms are luxurious with king size beds and large bathrooms. The fitness center has all the machines needed for a good workout, and a hot tub for after the workout. There is a large pool on the 15th overlooking the bay. I can't wait to return.
Loved this hotel. The concierge Jorge Rocha was so helpful, he gave us GREAT customer service. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Miami.
Location is great. Friendly staff. Reception lobby too small and crowded. Walls too thin.
The location, the size and quality of the room and bathroom, the courtesy and skill of the staff. We liked it. We'll come back.
Pool,location,bed itself was nice. Customer service was very bad for a 5 star hotel, mold in hallways of room, dirty stained carpets, every piece of furniture was damaged and just looked bad. If I wanted to stay in a hotel 6 I could have saved 200 dollars.
Location and pool. Dirty pool, dirty spa, dirty room, expensive forn nothing. Even the holiday inn has a slepers and more clean the bathroom and bedroom. The closet was broken, and they gave us a room for special capabilities i dont know why.
The hotel and atmosphere were great. The best service were the bell hop and the valet service. Untrained staff, in particular the service in the restaurant was poor! Front desk gave conflicting information are not clear when asking about restaurants.
Flight left me and I Sent them Proof from American Air Lines Then they promised me to re-booking amount, week left and did not recover the amount Whenever I tried to contact them A person who on the counter Transfer my calls to The Department Competent and No one answers no one call me back again ..... they are thieves
The Langford is absolutely beautiful and I loved its character! They managed to maintain a lot of its unique architecture with modern touches. The downtown location was convenient for all of the things we wanted to do. I didn't like the breakfast situation. When I booked online, it said out breakfast would be included, however, when we went upstairs the first morning we were immediately accosted about our breakfast coupons and then told we could only have the pastries, coffee, and orange juice, since we didn't have the coupons. I'm 6 months pregnant and had my 1 year old daughter with us, so this was very frustrating. But there were several options within walking distance. Also, we wanted to use the sky lobby while we were there, but there was some kind of model casting going on all day both days we were there so it was packed.
Nice big room, very clean, staff was very nice! Loved the Pawnbroker rooftop bar/restaurant....great atmosphere! Close to Bayfront Park area and Brickell Avenue and Marlins Park. No ice machine on floor and had to get ice from room service. The regular restaurant was closed for renovations. They charged a hotel fee for their continental breakfast even if you didn't eat breakfast.
The staff was incredibly friendly and accomodating. The rooms were smaller, but clean and chicly decorated. PB station had delicious food and the rooftop bar was fun!
There was nothing open including room service and there was a dead cockroach in our room.
The location is terrible nothing to do around there. Customer service is terrible very rude staff especially in the restaurant. Will never stay there again.
How courteous the doormen and front desk employees were, great shower. Nice comfy bed. Apparently requesting a second bucket of ice is an unreasonable request. Not according to the front desk but to whoever tells the person that actually comes to your door. This was off putting to say the least.
Very modern facilities I arrive at 9:00am and they charged me an entire extra day to give me the room before 3:00 pm
location, amenities, comfort, balcony, cleanliness, friendly staff language barrier
The hotel and room were good. The shower has no water pressure. If they fix this I'll give them 5 stars
Walking distance to everything Downtown. Great location!!
staff Way too much traffic and construction Evidently i also had no flexibility as i booked through an online service that was non refundable but i was not told...so that soured me on the while trip
They need new the furnitures and open restaurant and bar and swimming pool.
Staff was really rudded. They have problems with my reservation and they did not want to help me in solving the problem when the problem was theirs. The TV did not work.
The price i paid I was not expecting much but the hotel far exceeded my expectations. The lobby was very nice and clean. The rooms were a lot bigger than I expected, clean and all utilities working. Housekeeping was very regular. There is metromover station very close to the hotel. Highly recommeded Buffet breakfast was the same everyday and not much options. The TV in my room seemed to give trouble at times and there are some parts of the hotel that could be done over in a fresh coat of paint. Very very small issues.
Extremely slow check in, big room but ancient furniture including a TV from the sixties. No breakfast, as promised, the following morning as the food delivery had not arrived! No credit offered for this omission.
Affordable, staff was professional, location was within walking distance of brickell and downtown. They let us store luggage after we checked out. Old and run down appearances, looks like it hasn't been updated in decades. Bed was uncomfortable. No bar or restaurant in the facility. Noisy.
Location was great. Shower was cold and a/c wouldn't got any lower than 76 degrees even though I set the thermostat to 59 degrees.
The location is close to the Port of Miami. I was able to walk to the water front to explore the day before I boarded for my cruise. It was a 10 minutes Uber ride from the hotel to the Port of Miami. There are 2 pharmacies within 10 minutes walking distance. The room and building are very dated. The elevator is very slow.
perfect price, and very closely located to all downtown amenities and the Riverwalk stop of the free "Metromover" transit line. Exactly what we needed.
Staff was very courteous Facility is old and in need of refurbishment. Very noisy.
The lobby is pretty fancy and my room view was great. Room was clean. Breakfast was horrible and my bed wasn't comfy at all. Furniture has to be updated. The room wall were stain or dirty. Wouldn't stain here again unless it is an emergency.
The view was great, the room was clean. The guy that checked us in was super nice. Only staying one night
Our room was not ready by checkin No manager on duty

Give Us Rest CD
Full Product Description
Never shy about trying new sounds or techniques, David Crowder*Band have pushed the boundaries and exceeded the perceived limitations of Christian music, producing music that apparently transcends genre.
It is said that all good things must come to an end, and this is indeed the case with the David Crowder*Band. This is their final album. David Crowder said For a long while we have had a good idea of what we were going to record for album number 6; we were going to record a Mass... Fittingly enough, it seems our little Mass has turned itself into a Requiem.
So, a climatic ending to a movement that finds it roots in authenticity, inventiveness, honesty, and above all, a love for God and a desire to sing His praise.
Give Us Rest CD by David Crowder Band was published by EMI in December 2011 and is our 9583rd best seller. The ISBN for Give Us Rest CD is 5099996785423.

Last night my husband and I watched an old Western with a young Clint Eastwood as the hero. He wore a poncho and, without moving it, he could outdraw anyone trying to do him in.
When I was growing up 80 years ago, I loved a shoot-em-up movie. As kids we shot cap guns. During the Depression I remember standing at the counter of the corner confectionary clutching my penny. Which? A roll of caps? A jawbreaker? The caps always won and I shot judiciously to make the delicious smell of a shot last.
Later, in high school in the '40s, for P.E. we could choose time on the rifle range in the basement. ROTC boys helped show us how to lie on the padded platform, to pull the trigger of the long gun softly and try for the target. It was triumph to hit a bull's-eye.
That was the last of a gun in my hands, but the cowboy shows kept entrancing me.
So why was I appalled by Clint Eastwood doing in the bad guys? Maybe it was watching the bad guys laughing as they mowed down men and horses by cranking a Gatling gun shooting dozens of bullets a minute. Or the same bad guys laughing as they picked off men running from a burning building, some still on fire.
The glee. That was it. The heinous glee in killing. The shooting eerily echoed the maniacal gunning down of innocents by today's far-from-heroic gunmen.
And this old movie is probably a pale comparison to a video game where the player shoots policemen like ducks in a shooting gallery. Surely the Eastwood movie mayhem was minor compared to the bloody violence of three out of four previews of coming attractions inflicted before the start of a film in any local theater.
But before I fired off a stormy letter to a newspaper or my legislator, I tried to look at the other side of using a gun.
I called my cousin. Not only does she live on a ranch and own a gun, she worked for 40 years at the Browning Arms plant that adjoins the beautiful acres she lives on. She, her husband, and their grown children all own guns and keep them locked in a Browning gun case. They like to hunt and need guns to shoot predators, mostly coyotes, after their livestock. An assault weapon? Yes, her sons use one for shooting at a distance and being sure to hit the target. This cousin, so attuned to my love of horses and mountains, who loves to read, also loves guns? Even assault rifles?
I had to sleep on the idea. This morning I'm thinking that guns in her life are no more a sign of reckless animosity than my cap gun was those years ago. She, like 70 percent of gun owners shown in a Pew survey, wants answers to prevent killing sprees that have so tormented the nation.
Enough is enough. Surely bright people who take on space and technology can find ways to limit accessibility and inclination to violence. For us, the cowboy shows of the 1930s were make-believe. Violence now is more than real, especially violence to children. Fear follows and we beg for protection.
That protection demands wise, balanced consideration, unpolluted by ideology or tradition or the corruption of money.
Please, before my generation is gone, a rescue some thoughtful, humane, balanced changes by the good guys, gun lovers or otherwise to harness the death-dealing bad ones.

Hazel Connelly
Hippy - Poem by Hazel Connelly
I was a of a hippy for a while
With chants of make love not war
A flower child wanting to be free
And didn't like the law.
Communes sprang up everywhere
There was always a place to stay
Homeless wasn't a problem
Like it seems to be today.
My parents often frowned
They didn't understand
I was young and alive
And living off the land.
I travelled from town to town
And created quite a fuss
Friends packed tightly in a
Brightly coloured mini bus.
I hitched around the country
Without fear that I would die
I was a peaceful rebel
Half my world was high.
Kaleidoscope patterns were everywhere
As I sat in the park getting stoned
Making symbols and signs of peace
As war was never condoned.
Every generation has to have
It's very own thing to prove
In my psychedelic hippy days
This chick was in the groove.

If you tuned into The Daily Show earlier this month, you would have heard Jon Stewart's guest, David Agus, a physician and author of the new best-selling book The End of Illness, fret about what could be called America's vitamin abuse problem.
There have been 50 large-scale studies on supplements, he said, and not one has shown a benefit in heart disease or cancer. "I don't get it," he said. "Why are we taking these?"
Agus is not alone in his frustration. Other experts liken buying vitamins to flushing money down the toilet. In some cases, they mean it literally: If the body gets more of certain vitamins than it needs, it often excretes the excess in urine.
That doesn't stop Americans from spending about $28 billion a year on dietary supplements, including vitamins and herbal supplements.
In some cases, people may be spending money only to put their health at risk. "As Americans, we think more is better, but that's not the case with vitamins," says Dee Sandquist, a registered dietician and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
Here are three popular vitamin supplements that prove you can, in fact, get too much of a good thing.

Pictures include Sara (Sarah Wayne Callies) getting chased, Sucre (Amaury Nolasco) on the run with Westmoreland's money, and Kellerman (Paul Adelstein) on the hunt for Lincoln Burrows. Prison Break returns with an all-new episode ("Dead Fall") on Monday, Oct. 23 @ 8PM ET/PT on FOX. More pictures in the gallery!

Already without Pro Bowl Center Mike Pouncey for a large chunk of the season, the Fins may have now lost their backup center Sam Brenner after he had to be carted off with a lower leg injury during training camp today.
Shelley Smith is now taking snaps with quarterback Ryan Tannehill.
Their snap exchanges haven't look great during training camp.

"The Slap" Is The Perfect Cheeky Response To That "First Kiss" Video
Remember that "First Kiss" video that came out a few months ago, that purported to feature 20 strangers kissing for the first time? It was cute, but our awws were cut short when it was revealed the whole thing, while not quite a hoax, featured models and actors and was really an ad for the clothing company Wren. Well, this parody video, called "The Slap," didn't make me pick up where my awws left off, but it did crack me the hell up. Look, I obviously don't condone violence, blah blah blah blah blah, HOWEVER, I do think there's something to be said for having the experience of slapping and/or being slapped at least once in one's life (with consent). Just to see what it feels like. Who wants to slap me? [TIME]

I'm working on the roads in Woodburn and work Mon-Fri with my own truck. I work long hours and need somewhere clean and tidy to sleep and cook a meal in the evening. I go home most weekends to my family in Brisbane.
Me and my partner are tidy and can cook a meal my cat is adorable and loves attention he sleeps a lot and does not disturb, I am studding my certificate 3 in teaching Aid and my partner is a tree climber by trade.
I am moving from Sydney down the coast for work and looking for accommodation that will assist me in settling in the area. Length of stay is really dependent on the type of accommodation I am able to find due to work being extremely flexible. I am a quiet, clean and neat person who enjoys exploring & taste testing burgers and fries in my free time.
Meet and greet is the best option. I'm still new to the area and ok to be out of town. Rural would be great.
I'm about to move from Melbourne to the NSW south coast. I'm looking for somewhere to stay while I find a place to buy. I'm very tidy and a great cook.
Single. Clean very quiet person. I have 2 pugs
Close to beaches and shops Foxtel, Wi-Fi, bbq in quiet complex
I have a room in a four bedroom house available to rent in August. You would be sharing with myself and one other flatmate. The room is unfurnished but does have a built-in wardrobe. The house features a lovely big kitchen with open living/dining area. All bills are included in the rent. I like to keep the house fairly clean and tidy and would be looking for someone who is like-minded in this respect.
Hi! Im Anja. I am a clean, hardworking individual. I spend much of my time outdoors, hiking and exercising with my best friend fisher who is an 8 month old border collie. He is trained by me, incredibly well natured, smart, loyal and obedient. I'd love to live somewhere rural as the open spaces, fresh air, peace and quiet is all I'm after. If you live on a property and need a helping hand out in the fields I'm more than capable of hard work. If you have sheep, I'd love to train my border collie to herd. He would be fantastic! otherwise just looking for a spacious place in the burbs. I work 5 days a week from 9-5. friends of mine look after fisher for two of my working days and my folks often take him to the beach.Thanks for the consideration.
Ocean/ harbour views Large modern house 100m to shops/ restaurants/harbour Foxtel, wifi, elec, gas incl Cleaning lady every 2 weeks incl Share with 2 turtles North facing - warm in winter, cool in summer I work a lot......
Quite, laid back and tidy
the property is a large 3 x bedroom with closed in the back yard, a couple of fruit trees you would be welcome to pick of course.. house is on a hill and private from the rd, off street parking.The bedroom on offer has an ensuite and room huge built ins with mirrors, you would have access to a fridge or possibly I have an extra for you to use or certainly room here for your own fridge. There is an area in the house where there is the possibility for your own loungeroom. Nice quiet street in Mollymook Beach, with many trees, you can hear the ocean and it is about 5 mins walk to Beach and Mollymook shops. I will consider pets as I have a 10-year-old super duper friendly male, who lives in and outside. he gets along with other dogs, so all would be considered depending on your dog. smokers ok in your room and outside of course. I prefer a working person although will consider students, welfare recipients depending on circumstances. I have wifi although would be looking to share costs if a better data deal is available, no lock-ins. I do not drink alcohol these days and prefer not to be around it too much, although a couple of beers or drinks is fine.

Several summer basketball tournaments are struggling to attract top talent and stay afloat financially throughout the country.
St. Vincent-St. Mary High School boys basketball coach Dru Joyce II is happy to say the fifth annual King James Shooting Stars Classic is continuing to grow.
Joyce and Akron Mayor Don Plusquellic conducted a press conference Thursday morning at the Findley Community Center to discuss the tournament.
The event will be held at approximately 80 area gymnasiums of area schools, community centers and churches from April 23-25.
The tournament features players in bracketed age groups from ages nine-and-under up to 17-and-under.
Joyce said that 618 travel basketball teams of boys and girls players will play. American teams will come from as far away as California, Washington, New Mexico, Texas and Florida. to take part in an event that will also have Canadian teams and total more than 1,800 games.
The University of Akron will not be utilized this year due to possible NCAA legislation and a perceived unfair advantage for a college to host travel games on its campus.
Joyce said the NCAA voted last year to not allow Division I college coaches to attend. Division II and Division III college coaches are allowed to attend.
Plusquellic said he is disappointed Division I college coaches are not permitted to come because of the exposure the kids could get and how it could help them earn a scholarship and advance their education.
Dru Joyce II
``Every year we have been trying hard, myself and the committee, to keep the quality up.´´
``We are excited about this year. We have overcome some obstacles and there have been some changes.´´
``Last year, as you know, the NCAA and their wisdom voted to not allow Division I college coaches to attend. There hope was that events like this would die of a nice slow death.´´
``Around the country, most of the events like this are half the size of what they used to be, except for ours. We continue to grow. I think that LeBron James is definitely a big reason for that.´´
``LeBron has generously allowed us to use his name. He is very happy with the product that we continue to put in place. He understands the importance of travel basketball and the impact it had on his life. I am sure he would love to be out watching some games, but he has a little job he needs to get done [for the Cavaliers] just North of here.´´
``If it is done right, travel basketball is great. I had the priviledge this year to coach in the McDonald's All-American game. With our team, I asked those guys `How many of you have played in our tournament?´ A lot of those guys I did not know. Of the 12 guys on our team, I think eight raised their hand.´´
``The tournament has really grown at the younger ages, while we are still getting some of the best high school players in the country.´´
Don Plusquellic
``It was responsible last year for what was an estimated $2.5 million dollar infusion into the community as people stop and buy things, go to restaurants and stay at hotels. It provides, what I would describe as inexpensive family-friendly entertainment where some of the people here in the community can come and see some of the greatest basketball players.´´
``Each year the tournament has drawn thousands of people, mostly families from around the country, right here to our city. We get to highlight and show off some of our facilities and some of our great people.´´
``It is really not about the top 25 or 50 kids, they can pretty much write their ticket because everyone knows them.´´
``These young people who have some talent, but they might not be the tallest, they might be exactly the fastest and they might have the best shot, but they are the kid that makes a difference in a team in the long term because they are dedicated to working hard. Sometimes that is hard to see even in the regular season, but that travel opportunity I think gives them great exposure.´´
``Keeping coaches away from travel team games does not help the kids in my opinion. It is not going to make a difference for the top 100, but it certainly might for the next 100. I wish the NCAA would look at this differently.´´
Players -- according to Joyce
Some of the national players for this year's tournament in the rivals.com top 100 prospects for the class of 2011: Quincy Miller of High Point, N.C., Amir Williams of Beverly Hills, Mich., Dezmine Wells of Raleigh, N.C., James ``Zach´´ Price of Lakewood St. Edward in Ohio and Brandan Kearney of Detroit, Mich.
Some of the local players for this year's tournament: Buchtel's Jazel Garrett, Firestone's Darius Carter, Kenmore's Antonio Hearn, Archbishop Hoban's Greg McMullen, Walsh Jesuit's Evan Payne, Canton McKinley's Mike Mills and St. V-M's JaKarr Sampson, Ricky Johnson Jr., Lorenzo Cugini, DaVonte Beard, Khristian Taylor and Treyvon Crater.
Some of the national players from past tournaments: Derrick Rose (Chicago Bulls), O.J. Mayo (Memphis Grizzlies), Michael Beasley (Miami Heat), Eric Gordon (Los Angeles Clippers), Bill Walker (New York Knicks), John Wall (Kentucky), Derrick Favors (Georgia Tech) and Zeke Marshall (University of Akron).
Some of the local players from past tournaments: Kosta Koufos (GlenOak, Ohio State, Utah Jazz), C.J. McCollum (GlenOak, Lehigh), Josh Egner (Jackson, University of Akron), Mark Henniger (Jackson, Kent State University), Storm Sanders (GlenOak) and Cameron Black (Kent Roosevelt, Bowling Green).
Some other notable players from Ohio who played in the tournament: Delvon Roe (Lakewood St. Edward, Michigan State), Jared Sullinger (Columbus Northland, Ohio State recruit), Cameron Wright (Cleveland Benedictine, Pittsburgh recruit) and Derek Jackson (Cleveland Benedictine, Central Michigan).

LeBron staying in Cleveland?
Joyce also briefly addressed James' upcoming free agency with a laugh.
``I do not know if LeBron is going to stay,´´ Joyce said. ``That is one of the questions I always get. ... Do I want him to stay? Of course.´´

In Norse mythology, Gymir was a giant whose daughter, Gerðr, married the god Freyr.
According to the Eddic poems "Skírnismál" and "Hyndluljóð", Gymir and his wife Aurboða are Gerð's parents. In the Prose Edda, Snorri Sturluson gave this information in Gylfaginning but in a list of kennings in Skáldskaparmál equates Gymir with the god and giant Ægir,[1] citing a verse by Hofgarða-Refr Gestsson where the kenning in question probably simply substitutes one giant-name for another.[2] Gymir is also equated with Ægir in the prose introduction to Lokasenna; however, the Nafnaþulur added later to the Prose Edda list him among the giants.
Gymir has usually been interpreted as a sea-giant, but Magnus Olsen regarded him as an earth giant in connection with his interpretation of Skírnismál in light of the hieros gamos[3] and he has also been seen as a chthonic deity.[4] Suggestions as to the etymology and meaning of his name include 'earthman', 'the wintry one', 'the protector' and 'the bellower'.[5]
According to John Lindow, one source calls Gerð's father Geysir.[6]

Faux Paws
These pages created and maintained by
Dr. Mary Ellen Van Camp
Although I've loved dogs since childhood, my love of cats
developed later in life when I acquired two felines of my own.
Because of my personal literary interests, this site will have a decided literary bent.
Cat Books
There are many delightful books written about cats by both well-known and lesser-known authors. This list which follows includes some of those that I have particularly enjoyed. The best ones, of course, are those which, whether fact or fiction, remain true to cats in spirit.
Baker, Leslie. The Third-Story Cat. Illustrated by Leslie
Baker. Boston: Little, Brown, 1987.
This is the story of an apartment cat who ventures beyond the confines of her home to explore the park across the street and make new friends. Her journey there and back reveal Baker's understanding of cats she has known.
Calhoun, Mary. Cross-Country Cat. Illustrated by Erick Ingraham. A picture story book about the cross-courtry skiing adventure of Henry, a cat who is accidently left behind after his family visits a winter retreat.
A nearly wordless picture book, like many of those by Eric Carle,
either for adults to read to their very young children, or for
beginning readers to try on their own.
Eisler, Colin. Cats Know Best. Illustrated by Lesley Anne Ivory. New York: Dial, 1988.
Lesley Anne Ivory's magnificent illustrations of cats set against
elaborate backgrounds make this a visually-stunning work of art.
Eisler's simple text makes the book appropriate for beginning readers.
Older readers may be struck by the apparent incongruity of the
well-wrought and highly detailed illustrations and the naive language
of the text.
Miller, Sara Swan. Three Stories You Can Read to Your Cat. Illustrated by True Kelley. Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1997.
Sara Swan Miller's book is intended for beginning readers who want to show off their newly-learned reading skills. When adults are just too busy to listen, the very young reader can read to the cat. No doubt many family cats have tolerated, and perhaps even enjoyed, this role before; but, as far as I know, there have not been any books in the past that were written for very young readers and intended for the feline audience.
Catsbuzz : Books
and more for cat lovers.
Books for Cat Lovers : Another site devoted to feline literary interests.
Cats in the Arts : Links to felines in books and music
The Cat Who Loves Reading : An insightful statement about why this cat (and almost any child) loves the time spent listening to someone reading aloud.
Cats Who Write : A laugh-out-loud site by Joanne Rocklin for those who love cats and know Children's Literature.
Cat Fanciers : An association for those who take their cats seriously.
If you're looking for information about various breeds of cats , the Cat Fanciers has a fine set of descriptions online.
Maine Coon Cats : One of my favorite breeds. Known as "gentle giants," these cats often retain their playful kittenish traits throughout their lives.
of the Maine Coon Cat : Wonderful stories about the origins of the
Coon breed. Maybe they're true, and maybe ....
: A great site with cat graphics, humor, cat stories, links, and more.
These pages were created on March 6, 1997 and

A potentially series-killing money dispute between "The Simpsons" main voice actors and producer 20th Century Fox TV was resolved late Friday.
Still, fans of prime-time network television's longest-running scripted series might want to prepare to have a cow.
The six main voice actors behind the cartoon juggernaut agreed to undisclosed but substantial per-episode salary cuts, though not as steep as the 45 percent Fox TV had been demanding, to ensure that the 23-season-old staple would continue through a landmark 25th.
Beyond 2014, though, the animated satire's survival remains in doubt.
Fox executives maintained that the reason they asked for the actors to take such a big cut in their $440,000-per-show pay was because the program's ratings have dipped enough to make it financially unattractive to continue production. Some even hinted that they would consider pulling the plug now if the actors didn't come around.
Some of the show's creative executives had reportedly agreed to salary cuts to keep the franchise alive. But they wanted a piece of "The Simpsons"' lucrative merchandising and syndication businesses, something Fox has steadfastly refused to give the actors.
"I'm willing to let them cut my salary not just 45 percent but more than 70 percent," Harry Shearer (who voices Principal Skinner and Ned Flanders among other characters) said in a statement released early Friday. "All I would ask in return is that I be allowed a small share of the eventual profits."
That didn't happen, according to reports about the new two-year contract between Fox and Shearer, Dan Castellaneta (Homer), Julie Kavner (Marge), Nancy Cartwright (Bart), Yeardley Smith (Lisa) and Hank Azaria (Moe and Chief Wiggum).
This week's near-death experience got some "Simpsons" watchers thinking about what's made the program so special.
"One could argue that the show is the most important series in television history - not just from the standpoint of longevity but in how it helped change the landscape," said former Daily News TV critic Ray Richmond, who co-authored the 1997 book "`The Simpsons:' A Complete Guide to Our Favorite Family."
"There was no prime-time animated genre out there, since `The Flintstones' in the '60s, until this show kind of slipped in and started it over again at the end of '89," Richmond said.
"One could argue that the Fox Broadcasting Network wouldn't have survived without this show. And from the standpoint of creativity, it's ratcheted it up for prime time in terms of giving comedy another face and another look beyond the simple four-camera or one-camera sitcom."
Its cartoon nature allowed the show to be more topical, subversive and surreal than your average live-action sitcom. But it's still been amazing how consistently radical "The Simpsons" writing has been for more than two decades.
"It's always fresh," said Nate Thomas, a professor of cinema and television arts at California State University, Northridge.
"Most sitcoms tend to run out of stories after awhile. But I think `The Simpsons' fictional, animated world just opens it up to a whole new galaxy.
"With this dispute resolved, they could continue to have many, many more years of exploring storylines which resonate with many in American culture," Thomas added hopefully.
Not a likely scenario, if the last week's posturing is any indication.
"I think they're realizing that it's coming to the end of the line and a show cannot go on forever," Richmond said.
"I think Fox called the actors' bluff. They're thinking, if we can make it way cheaper, then we'll keep making it. If not, we've done just fine. No other show has 500 episodes in the can."
A snarky "Simpsons" writer might make the joke that there would be one silver lining to the show's cancellation: Bart-voicer Cartwright could devote more time to her position as honorary mayor of Northridge.

Following his second loss to UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva, Chael Sonnen may give it another go in a new division.
Taking a cue from Rich Franklin, who also suffered two losses to the champ, Sonnen is considering a move to light heavyweight.
Sonnen, who suffered a second-round TKO loss to Silva earlier this month in a highly anticipated UFC 148 main event, spoke to FUEL TV about the possibility.
"The is simply an option to start over by changing weight class," Sonnen told "UFC Tonight's" Ariel Helwani. "My mentors have done it, and it could happen. I would go up to 205. Jon Jones. There are some great guys at 185, but traditionally and historically, it is a good way to get a fresh start and start over."
Jones, of course, is UFC light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones, who's been just as dominant as Silva in his recent title run.
Franklin, who only now is returning to middleweight after nearly four years at light heavyweight and catchweight bouts, also had hoped to reinvent himself at 205 pounds. And like Franklin, UFC officials may also encourage the marketable Sonnen to make the move. After all, with a crowded title picture, Sonnen is unlikely to get a third Silva meeting anytime soon, and UFC officials probably wouldn't want him picking off would-be middleweight contenders in the meantime.
However, Sonnen admits to a desire for a third meeting with Silva.
"If I had the chance to fight him again, I would definitely take it," Sonnen said. "I am appreciative of him and of [this] chance he gave me to fight him again and the first time. I was very good for Anderson, but Anderson was very good for me too."
