SEATTLE The billionaire software engineer set to become the next space tourist said he's been interested in space since his boyhood in the Soviet Union.
Charles Simonyi, 58, left Hungary at 17, roughly a decade after the launch of Sputnik, the first man-made satellite. He came to the United States to study engineering and computer science, and went on to help develop two of the world's most popular software applications, Microsoft Corp.'s Word and Excel.
Simonyi is paying Space Adventures Ltd. of Vienna, Va., $20 to $25 million to take him to the International Space Station in March aboard a Russian Soyuz spacecraft, the company said. He would be the fifth person the company has taken to space.
"Dr. Simonyi has been successful in a much larger way on Earth than we've been in space," said Eric Anderson, the company's president and chief executive.
Simonyi worked for Xerox Corp. in California for eight years before moving in 1981 to Microsoft, which he left to found Intentional Software Corp. in 2002 in nearby Bellevue.
He said Thursday he felt like he was making a contribution to the future of civilian space flight, helping with space research and encouraging kids to get interested in science.
His own interest in space as a child helped him learn English — some of his first English words were "propellant" and "nozzle" — and his knowledge of space trivia led to victory at age 13 in a junior astronaut contest. The prize was a trip to Moscow and a chance to meet one of the first cosmonauts, Pavel Popovich.
Although he will be helping with science experiments and some menial tasks during the eight-day trip, Simonyi said he will be spending a lot of time just hanging out, observing, taking pictures and looking out the window.
Simonyi will be blogging on a website designed to appeal to younger space enthusiasts and adults interested in space travel.
"I want to share all that I learn with everybody, especially with kids," he said.
Simonyi's friend and former colleague, Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, is making his own contributions to space tourism by investing in research to build civilian spacecraft.
"He's very happy. He was one of the first people I told about my decision," Simonyi said.

Easton Corbin knew he wanted to be a country singer well before he learned how to play guitar.
"One of my earliest memories is from when I was three or four," he remembers. "I was sitting between my parents in the car and a song came on the radio-it was Mel McDaniel's 'Baby's Got Her Blue Jeans On.' I began using the gearshift as my microphone. The desire has always been there."
Now those lifelong dreams are coming true. The accolades are continuing to roll in for Easton, who is the first country male artist in 17 years to have his first two consecutive singles reach No. 1 - "A Little More Country Than That" and "Roll With It."
In a six-month period, he received 13 country music award nominations and won three country music trophies. Most recently, he received three nominations from the Academy of Country Music Awards -- Top New Solo Vocalist as well as Single and Song of the Year for his debut hit, "A Little More Country Than That."
He won three 2010 American Country Awards, sweeping every breakthrough artist category - Artist of the Year: Breakthrough Artist, as well as Single of the Year: Breakthrough Artist and Music Video: Breakthrough Artist for "A Little More Country Than That." He tied with Lady Antebellum to earn the most fan-voted nominations, garnering seven. In addition, he received nominations for Best New Artist and Single and Song of the Year for "A Little More Country Than That" at the 2010 Country Music Association Awards.
Billboard named Easton the Top New Country Artist of 2010 and "Roll With It" the No. 6 Hot Country Song of the Year, while "A Little More Country Than That" was ranked No. 19. His album was also named Country Breakthrough Album of the Year by iTunes Rewind.
The Nashville Scene's 11th annual Country Music Critics' Poll named Easton the Best New Act of 2010 and included his self-titled album in its Best Albums list at No. 19. "A Little More Country Than That" was ranked No. 11 on its Best Singles list.
"This is a dream come true," he says. "This is something I've wanted all of my life. To be able to do this for a living and have people like it, I couldn't ask for any better. I am so blessed."
Born and raised in rural Gilchrist County, Fla., Easton spent much of his time on his grandparent's cattle farm after his parents divorced when he was young. "I lived a mile from the Suwannee River," he says. "I grew up fishing on it and I loved to work on The Farm. Every weekend, that's where I'd be."
A member of FFA and 4-H, Easton showed cattle at the local livestock fair. Growing up in the smallest county in the state on farmland nestled between two small towns had its advantages. "It's a close community," he says. "Everybody knows everybody.
"There's no Walmart there," he says. "There was a Hardee's, but it closed. That was the only franchise fast food place in the county. Trenton has a red light; Bell has a blinking light. It's a great place."
While no one in his family played a musical instrument, music was a big part of his upbringing. "My grandparents liked to watch the Opry," Easton remembers. "We'd start Saturday night off with 'Hee Haw' and then 'Opry Backstage' and then 'Opry Live'."
It was also at his grandparent's house that he discovered a record player and his father and aunts' left-behind records in a front room. "I'd go in there and play those records for hours," he says.
When Easton was 15 years old he began taking guitar lessons from Pee Wee Melton, a local musician who had at one time played on sessions in Nashville. "He was a great mentor," Easton says. "He was a great player and a great teacher. He was a really big influence on me."
Every day when he got home from school, Easton would practice guitar for hours, sometimes until his fingers were raw, then help his grandfather around The Farm.
Encouraged by Melton, Easton began playing lead guitar in a local band. "I'd always wanted to play and sing, but up until that time I never really did it in public," he says. "We'd play school functions and parties. We were too young to play bars, but we played everything else."
An impromptu audition at a local music store led to a slot on the Suwannee River Jam, a nearby festival that attracts thousands of people and national touring acts. "It was just me and a guitar in front of a 40-acre field full of people," Easton remembers. "It was great."
Soon he was opening for other national acts when they played the area, including Janie Fricke and Mel McDaniel, the man whose song Easton had performed in the car years earlier.
After earning a business degree through the College of Agriculture at the University of Florida, Easton moved to Nashville. "I always knew I wanted to move up here," he says. "There was never any question about it. I didn't want to wake up one day and wish I would have tried it, but I had to get my education first so I had something to fall back on."
Easton, who had been making regular trips to Nashville to perform at writer's nights, took a day job at a local Ace Hardware.
When a distant cousin, also a professor of music management at the University of Montana, heard Easton's music, he asked if he could send it to some of his Nashville contacts. Among those who were impressed by Easton's music was booking agent James Yelich, who asked if he could hear him play in person. Easton, eager for a shot to pursue his dream, quickly agreed.
Also at the meeting was Joe Fisher, who had recently joined Universal Music Group Nashville as Senior Director of A&R. The two men were blown away and Fisher quickly signed him to the label.
Easton, whose musical influences include George Jones, Merle Haggard, George Strait and Keith Whitley, found a kindred spirit in producer Carson Chamberlain, who years earlier had toured with Whitley as his steel guitar player and bandleader. "We really hit it off," Easton says. "I love traditional music and he does too. I knew he was the producer for me."
The two men began working in earnest. "We worked our butts off trying to find the right songs," Easton says. The result is an over-the-top album that includes cuts from Nashville's top songwriters, including Mark D. Sanders, Wynn Varble, Tony Lane and David Lee, among others.
Like his heroes Strait and Whitley, Easton is unapologetically country. His songs, while rooted in the present, call to mind simpler times when the back porch was where folks gathered to network. Steel guitars and fiddles are as much a part of his sound as his baritone drawl.
First single, "A Little More Country Than That," which was written by Rory Feek, Don Poythress and Varble, paints a picture of rural life that speaks to Easton's small town sensibilities. "Even though I didn't write it, this song identifies who I am," he says. "It shows character and that's important where I'm from. You learn to say 'yes, ma'am' and 'no, sir,' and to open the door for the ladies."
Among the songs included on the album are four Easton co-wrote with Chamberlain and Sanders during a trip to Colorado. "When I came to Nashville I realized how important it was to write songs," Easton says. "The opportunity to sit in a room with experienced songwriters and learn their craft has helped me become a better writer.
"I'm still working and developing as a writer, but I was fortunate enough to get some songs on the album," Easton says, perhaps more humble than he needs to be.
"The Way Love Looks," which Easton co-wrote with Chamberlain and Sanders, is a love song pure and simple. "It's just a fun upbeat song," Easton says.
Tony Lane, David Lee and Johnny Park wrote "Roll With It," which speaks to the important things in life like sunsets and pick-up trucks. "I love that one," Easton says. "I can imagine listening to it just floatin' down the river on the boat on a Saturday."
The tender "I Can't Love You Back," written by Chamberlain, Clint Daniels and Jeff Hyde, is Easton's third single and has a universal message of loss. "It can mean different things for different people," Easton says. "She could have died, she could have left him-people can interpret it the way they feel."
Now that his life long dream is upon him, Easton says he's ready. "I just want to make great country music," he says. "Just the opportunity to play music for a living is a great thing. I'm just thankful to have the opportunity to do what I'm doing now."
"The things to me that last are things that are real," Clay Walker says. "Realness is what draws people in."
Keeping things real has been a priority for Clay Walker. That may be why on his new album, "She Won't Be Lonely Long," his second for Curb Records, Walker sounds as fresh and hungry as he did when he released his first hit, "What's It To You," 17 years ago.
And there have been plenty since. Of his nine previous albums, four are RIAA-certified platinum, two more are certified gold; among nearly three dozen singles, 11 have been No. 1. But Walker sounds like he's just getting started.
Like his 2007 Curb Records debut, Fall, Walker's new album, She Won't Be Lonely Long was produced by Keith Stegall. The collection of songs is as solid and filler-free as he's recorded over the course of 10 studio albums. Radio friendly? Hello, cover of Alabama's immortal "Feels So Right," with Randy Owen, the writer of the song and Alabama member, performing it as a duet with Walker.
It has special meaning for the singer, since the first concert he ever saw was an Alabama show in Beaumont, Texas, that Walker's mother took him to see. "I remember them taking the stage, and the emotion that came over my mom. I just fell in love with their performance, as entertainers, they influenced my wanting to become an entertainer; I think that's where the energy of my live show comes from. So the song has a special place in my life, and I'm proud to do it."
The album's first single is "She Won't Be Lonely Long," written by Galen Griffin, Phil O'Donnell and Doug Johnson. But the story, about a woman walking into a club with the decisive purpose of finding at least a temporary replacement for the fool who let her go, is one Walker has seen transpire from many a bandstand.
"I've played in bars my whole life," he says. "As a singer, you have a bird's eye view of everyone in the club. When a good looking woman walks in, you notice it. What makes it so real is that if a guy does a girl wrong, the first thing she wants to do is go out, look great, show him that you're not the best I ever had, I'm the best YOU ever had."
Three of the tunes were written with longtime writing sidekick M. Jason Greene, who like Walker grew up in the Beaumont area. "Summertime Song" is an easygoing pleasure, a song that began taking shape years ago when Walker was performing a solo gig and Greene bartending at a local Steak and Ale. It's a song that evokes good times, good friends, and the dangers of forgetting what the merciless sun can do to your skin on Galveston Beach.
Two of Walker's new compositions are likely to stir conversation and perhaps controversy: "Double Shot of John Wayne" and "All American." Walker makes it clear that the John Wayne reference in that roaring up-tempo song is not an embrace of machismo or a desire to return to simpler, more violent Western past, when men were men and settled disputes with six-guns at high noon. What inspired it was a nasty accident on a bike during an exercise stretch off the tour bus in Flagstaff, Arizona, a few years ago. "I shattered my helmet, I was bleeding from head to toe," Walker said. "I had to go onstage that night, I never missed show." Putting ointment on his torn skin made Walker ponder "the ruggedness of men," as epitomized by John Wayne. "It's not supposed to be about John Wayne, his tough persona, or being a man's man," he says. "It's about how you live, not how you die; you don't have to die to be a hero; being a hero is how you live every day."
"All American" is an attempt to quiet the dissonance and mutual disrespect that has characterized too much political discussion in recent years. As the song makes clear, "there's blue collar, white collar, but we all bleed red." The song is a rebuke to the racism Walker says he was exposed to growing up. "It's about not being prejudiced or judgmental," Walker says. In the song, Walker sings about having "a best friend with a funny last name/and a weird accent/and now he's an astronaut." Says Walker: "You can succeed in this country with a great work ethic, I really believe that. Everybody deserves a fair chance. Not everybody seizes it, but everybody deserves it."

Oasis-a Huge Ship and even bigger disappointment: Oasis of the Seas Cruise Review by walnutz1974
Overall Member Rating
Oasis-a Huge Ship and even bigger disappointment
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
Embarkation- pretty easy, Royal Caribbean shows no love to their Gold members, only Platinum, Diamond and Diamond Plus...but more about that later! We were told that we were to go to the right and wait to embark, but another gentleman told us to go the other way because we were "Only Gold" members.
Dining- I had a great Assistant Waiter and Head Waiter, my main waiter left a lot to be desired. She really had no personality (luckily Razvan made up for it). The food was not great. I have had ALOT better on the Freedom Class and on the Voyager Class ships in the Royal Caribbean fleet. It seemed to me like they were trying to be too fancy with their food, leaving those of us without a well-developed palate (lol) to order off of the "Alternative Menu" five out of seven nights. Lunch--where to get it? Well, you could try the overcrowded, undersized Windjammer (which we did on 2 days). But, it is best to try the alternative More places...Park Cafe, had really good Cuban sandwiches (they were my favorite). Breakfast is also a hassle at Windjammer, so we did Johnny's most days (they made really good eggs).
Entertainment- This was the biggest disappointment that I could have had. I went on Saturday night to the "Oasis of Dreams" Aquatheater show, only to be hit in the face with "The Unexpected Boys"...who didn't even match their picture that was put up. It was an okay show, but nothing to write home about. They tried to do the Aquatheater show again, but do no avail. Eventually they put a little bit of "Oasis of Dreams" and "Splish-Splash" together to make one miniscule 30 minute showcase. It was good, but I would've loved to have seen the real show. The Aquatheater being down for 3 weeks, to me, is unacceptable.
Public Rooms- This ship has taken a beating in its less than one year life. The carpets are wearing down and in some areas it smells musty. I thought that weird seeing as it is a brand new ship. Maybe they need to think about that before getting any bigger.
Casino- They really did a great job with this one, by having 50% of it smoke-free. I have never been able to enjoy the casinos on any other ship, so this was definitely a perk for me.
The Boardwalk and Central Park are wonderful. I absolutely enjoyed these areas. Beautiful, fun and well thought-out.
The worst part about The Oasis is the crowding. When people say it doesn't seem like 6000 people on board I have to wonder if they spent their entire vacation in their room. I was pushed by people because the decks were so crowded and instead of saying "Excuse me" in whatever language one speaks, they think it is okay just to push by. I hated it. When an elevator is full, people should not try to fit 10 more smelly people in it, but it happened EVERYDAY! The pool decks were crowded, yes there were plenty of chairs, but that is if you want to sit by all of the smokers or nowhere near the pool. They don't "remove personal items left unattended after 30 minutes" as they are supposed to.
I do believe your vacation is what you make of it, and despite the overpriced Oasis, I made it an awesome experience for myself and my husband. If the Oasis had been my first Royal Caribbean cruise I would never go back, but as I have tried the Freedom Class and Voyager Class, I am loyal to Royal Caribbean. This ship definitely has many things to get worked out. Would I go on the Oasis again, only if I got it as cheaply as I did this time (one person was free due to our RC Visa points). I would never pay the price that many people did. It was not worth it. Less

March 12, 2002
The Bullitt County Public Library Board of Trustees met Tuesday, March 12, 2002, at the Mt. Washington Branch Library. Those present were Joyce Manning, Delorse Ashby, Pam Polston, Randy Matlow, and Judy T. Jackson. Beverly Reeks was a guest. Delorse Ashby called the meeting to order at 5:35 p.m.
The minutes of the last meeting were read. Joyce Manning made the motion to accept the minutes as written. Delorse Ashby seconded the motion. The motion carried.
The treasurer's report was given. Joyce Manning made the motion to accept the treasurer's report as given. Pam Polston seconded the motion. The treasurer's report will be filed for audit.
Regional Director's Report:
Nelda Moore was not present, but, had mailed handouts for the Board.
Library Director's Report:
Randy gave a progress report on the Mt. Washington building. The roof has been shipped, but not received. They are also waiting on the stone. The ones received were the wrong ones. The contractors said they might start the brick without the these stones. The outside lighting has been put up by L G & E. The bond financing has been closed. We are in the progress of asking for a reimbursement from the bond in the amount of $289,000. We are suppose to be getting more information concerning the financial handling of the bond. Beverly Reeks stated she had been getting a lot of interest in the new building. She has been told that judging from prior experience, usage will double or triple when the new building opens.
We need to start thinking about an exterior sign for the new building. Randy asked the Board if it would be okay to start checking into this. The Board agreed. He also suggested we hire commercial movers to do the moving. We also need to encourage patrons to check out more books.
We also need to start thinking about selling the present building. We might have a "silent" auction, starting at the appraisal figure. Randy asked if the Board would want to get another appraisal before the auction. The board agreed. Pam Polston made a motion to get another appraisal. Joyce Manning seconded the motion. The motion carried.
All payments for the new building must be made out of the Sinking Fund. Pam Polston made the motion to add the Board President's name as an approved signature on the Sinking Fund Account. Joyce Manning seconded the motion. The motion carried.
Randy passed out his yearly statistics for 2000-01 for the state-wide Kentucky libraries. He went over a little with the Board, pointing out Bullitt's place in the different categories. Our circulation figures are a little low, but that's probably due to being located so close to Jefferson County Library.
A very preliminary budget for next year was handed out. There had been a question brought up earlier about adding hours to the Lebanon Junction Branch library. Randy pulled out several statistics showing breakdowns for percentages of patrons, circulation, and etc. for all the libraries. Randy's opinion gathered from these statistics is that Ridgway would be the one that needs the additional hours. He is not advocating this at this time, though. Pam Polston asked if we could poll the patrons to see what hours would be better than the current hours at Lebanon Junction. Delorse Ashby asked if we would have to add hours at Mt. Washington Branch. We will have to address this after we move into the new building. We have also put more money in Lebanon Junction's budget in the past to try to boost their collection appeal. We are in the process of talking with Mary Yocum, the branch supervisor about rotating more material to them instead of buying them books.
Delorse Ashby asked if we will have to add staff to the Mt. Washington Branch because of the new building. This is a possibility.
Joyce Manning asked what the "next construction project" may be. The next project would probably be expanding Ridgway, or possibility buy ground in Lebanon Junction for a future new building there. Joyce Manning asked about the blacktopping at Dorothea Stottman. When we checked before, we were going to have to get a variety of permits, and with the Mt. Washington project, just haven't moved forward with this. We will plan to get back into checking about this.
We have received quotes for the carpeting for Ridgway and Dorothea Stottman Library. We are waiting for quotes for the shelf moving. When we get that piece of the equation, we can move forward with this project.
Randy gave the Board an update on us going wireless. He is waiting for the load factors of the antenna equipment. We need this information before we can find out if we can use the tower we want to. We will have to have a tower at Mt. Washington Library, a small one at Dorothea Stottman Library, and one at Lebanon Junction.
Joyce Manning made the motion to adjourn. Pam Polston seconded the motion. The meeting was adjourned at 6:40 p.m.
The next meeting will be April 9th, at 5:30 p.m. at the Ridgway Memorial Library.
Respectfully submitted,
Pam Polston Donald S. Cobb
Secretary President

Fusion Science and Technology / Volume 55 / Number 2T / February 2009 / Pages 209-212
Technical Paper / Seventh International Conference on Open Magnetic Systems for Plasma Confinement
Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure fabricated by plasma source ion implantation (PSII) with high-power pulsed RF plasma has been studied. Oxygen ions were implanted into p-type silicon wafer and high temperature annealing was subsequently used to form SOI structure. The top silicon and the buried oxide (BOX) layer were formed with 500 ;Aring& and 400 ;Aring&, respectively, in the sample implanted with the dose of 2.5 × 1017 #/cm2 at the ion energy of -75 kV and annealed at 1350 °C for 30 min in Ar+O2 (0.5 %) ambient. This study showed the possibility of SOI fabrication using the PSII with pulsed ICP source.

Points to consider when buying a VoIP analysis tool
Protocol support, data capture mechanisms, top list of considerations
By Miercom
When buying VoIP analysis and management tools, here are some of the key product differentiators to keep in mind:
VoIP protocols supported: No one product will track them all, but tools are gaining an increasing range. Protocols supported include Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), Skinny Call Control Protocol (SCCP), H.323, Megaco and Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP).
Real-time monitoring or data capture: There are two main ways of providing VoIP analysis - through real-time monitoring, which views data on the fly, or through data-capture, which analyzes data after the fact. Real-time monitoring shows current and/or summarized statistics on active VoIP systems and best serves as a sort of security guard, watching over VoIP traffic as it moves across the wire.
Data-capture and analysis methods record network statistics on VoIP traffic and save them for detailed review through tools designed to enhance the analysis process. Filters – the selection criteria for catching and storing VoIP data for subsequent analysis – provide focus for the examination of the statistics. Many products offer a mixture of real-time monitoring and data-capture processes.
Passive or active: VoIP tools can operate in one of two modes. They can be passive and simply listen to network traffic, gathering statistics in real-time (or near real-time), or actively generate traffic and then gather and compare the results of the test transmissions. The passive approach doesn't add network overhead and can monitor the network for prolonged periods. While active tools can gauge results precisely by comparing packets created and transmitted with the results captured at the far end of the transmission.
Agent or agentless? Some tools require software agents to be installed at network-monitoring points to report VoIP traffic between the monitored sites back to a central administrative console.
GUI considerations: Graphic user interfaces vary widely. Look for:
• An intuitive, linear interface that provides efficient access to information.
• The ability to view a wide range of network activity (the more the better).
• The capability to drill down for greater detail without opening multiple separate windows in a desktop-type interface and, better yet, fix a reported problem.
• The ability to display the actual sound waveform for both sides of a call, allowing visual analysis of problems between the various devices.
• Command-line interface for script execution.
Ease of maintenance: Is it possible to monitor the entire network from a single site? Sometimes additional software probes might be necessary to overcome restricted boundaries. They are installed on the remote hosts. Distributed tools may allow for multiple sites to be simultaneously monitored, either individually or in aggregate.
Types of problems detected: Examine the product's ability to automatically detect problems such as loss of a gateway, controller, WAN link or specific endpoint, and detect call-quality degradation in latency, packet loss and mean opinion score call-quality level.
Sophistication of help and analysis support: Do reports and quality-assurance threshold alerts contain links to background information to assist in explaining the contents?
Customizable triggers/thresholds: A trigger is a set of predetermined conditions that will start the capture of session data automatically. Triggers can be set for pre- and post-event actions on a given threshold or level of session activity. The finer degree of control the better.
Reporting: Does the tool provide preformatted reports of system activity? Can they be customized? How about provide links to third-party reporting tools, such as Crystal Reports?

This past weekend we visited relatives in California. My wife had guests who have two daughters a little older than our daughter so it was fun to see them dote on her and play dress up and laugh together.
On Saturday, we ventured out to splash and play at a local water park and had an absolute blast. My daughter floated along on an inner tube as we smiled and sang on the man-made lazy river. Being at the park was a refreshing break from the heat and playing in the water was peaceful and relaxing.
At lunchtime, my father-in-law was a true gentleman and went outside and cooled off the mini-van and we ate healthy lunches that we had prepared in the car to avoid eating all the processed food available at the vending stands (you can also read that as we wanted to make sure we had happy and healthy children who went to bed early as opposed to staying up late wired on chemicals, preservatives and sugar).
My mother-in-law was kind enough to stay in the park and keep an eye on our lounge chairs as we all snacked in the cool car. Then I thought we would trade places so my mother-in-law could go out and take a break from the sun and eat her lunch in the air-conditioned car. However, she asked us to sneak in her sandwich and snacks under our towels so that she would not have to go back out to the car. I was reluctant to sneak in food, as the park requested that all food and beverage be left outside the park (maybe to increase profits or simply to avoid any unwanted substances creeping in, I gave them the benefit of the doubt because life is easier for me that way).
We successfully snuck the sandwich and snacks into the park and within five minutes our inner tubes got snagged by a mischievous teenager who was too swift on foot to nab. My wife and I laughed so hard because the sandwich sneak boomeranged around as fast as the law of returns is always perfect. We break the rules and our inner tubes get snagged and we have to pay for more inner tubes. We got the lesson that the sneak cost us in the long run.
You might see all of this as coincidence, but we did not. We smiled and laughed as we thought of the principle that life's cash register always comes out balanced.
On the ride home, my daughter drifted off to sleep in her car seat, and my wife and I reflected upon how this incident reminded us of the laws of health and success. So often we hear people speak about how their health concerns just suddenly surfaced without any connection to prior events or circumstances. We then slowly help people re-trace their steps as they come to understand that one's health status is a cumulative event.
There are no effects without causes. So we invite you to think about your health and life in regards to a boomerang, or in our case an inner tube. The choices you make now return with interest and we celebrate that you are the type of people who make choices that continually help you float along the sea or water park of life.

Ask Experts & Get Answers to Your Questions - ASAP
Hi! Thanks!
I am looking to buy decent used furniture
Hi. Thanks for the helpful info. So for garage sales there is usually a week which has more potential? And garage sales are usually done on weekends right? Do you think moving away sales on craigslist should also be a good thing? Because sometimes they are also on a short time line. And as far as negotiating the price for furniture, should I make offers online before seeing the furniture in person? What negotiation works best? I think online might be better because at least I can rule out the ones didnt want to lower the price so I wont even waste my time going all the way to the person.
Thanks a lot

Explorer of the Seas - Eastern Caribbean: Explorer of the Seas Cruise Review by new2cruiseamy
Overall Member Rating
Explorer of the Seas - Eastern Caribbean
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: Bayonne (Cape Liberty)
Embarkation was easy - arrived at port around 11:30 and was eating in the Windjammer for lunch by noon. No problems at all, or lines at this time. Had to take a shuttle to the boat from the dock---for some reason I assumed we would walk right on, but you need to get a shuttle to get to the gangway.
Of course as first time cruisers we were in awe of the ship....you cannot possibly understand how large this vessel is unless you see it firsthand. We walked on and were amazed by everything. Ate lunch in the Windjammer which was good. Went to the back of the boat to the Island Grill and didn't have a problem finding chairs to sit down. We rarely ate here though, as I personally don't More like buffets----but it was nice and food was good.
We were allowed in our rooms by 1----shared adjoining promenade staterooms with 2 teenage daughters 7595 & 7597. I originally booked an inside H category for the four of us-----I AM SOOO GLAD we changed. The rooms are big enough for two, but I think if we would have had 4 in there, by day 5 we would have been ready to kill each other. The promenade stateroom was very nice. Nice to have a window looking out to people watch. Also no noise at all----we did not have any problems with this. Very soundproof.
As far as everything else, I will summarize as follows:
Ship itself----beautiful, couldn't have asked for more. Seemed that everything looked like new, and in good working order.
Promenade rooms - Very nice---small, but good for 2 if you don't plan on spending hours in the room (why would you, enjoy the ship)
Stateroom attendant - She was very good, wonderful service and really neat towel animals. She went out of here way to make things nice for us.
Food - Very good to excellent. Ate in the dining room most of the time. Liked meeting new people at breakfast, and the service and food was delicious. Usually just grabbed a burger at lunch when we were hungry at the Windjammer. Food was good----just don't like buffets. Ate at Johnny Rockets one time for lunch, food was again good (glad that they had other sandwiches besides burgers). Dinner every night but one was in the dining room----food was excellent as well as the service. When you can get this kind of food/service, why would you line up at buffet?
Waiter/Asst Waiter - Jekaterina & Umesh were terrific!!! Always pleasant, and went out of there way to serve you with a smile. My daughters loved this part of the cruise. They are missing having Umesh bring them rolls, refill water glass, etc..
Shows - Went to mostly all of them. They were all very good. I was expecting amusement park caliber, and it exceeding that by a great deal. All shows with the exception of one were great---costumes, singing, dancing, the sets----very good. Did not care for the magic show---seemed a little cheesy after all the good shows we did see. The ice show is not to be missed---was expecting ice capades and it turned out to be phenomenal. My husband and two teenagers who are not really show people, could not wait to get to the next show.
Ship entertainment - Excellent- if you can't find something to do on this ship, you have issues. They have everything from Rock climbing to ice skating, Bingo, sitting by the pool, plenty of workshops, etc......too much to do, and sometimes we had to make tough choices as there were things we wanted to do that were at the same time....Oh well, maybe next cruise.
Bars/lounges - Many, many venues. All with entertainment. We fell in love with Dizzy's jazz club. Usually, my husband and I went there every night to end the day with a Martini, listening to excellent jazz playing. Very classy---and overlooked the pool area. All other lounges were also very nice.
Teen club/area - no real rating. My 14 year old went the first night, but only a few kids there. I was later told that only 300 kids on board in total--didn't look like too many were teenagers. They mostly stuck with us during the day doing family things, and at night after dinner, we went to the shows. After that, they were both so tired, they wanted to go back to room to watch movies. I peeked in on them through the adjoining door and usually were asleep by midnight. I guess we wore them out. But they said they had a great time, and really loved it. They liked the arcade, rock climbing, shows, etc.....would both sail again no problem on this ship.
Ports of call - All different in their own way. Loved all of them: St. Thomas- only arrived at 1:00 (this limits your day as all stores close by 6:00) - Went on a ship excursion, Buck Island sail & snorkel--VERY COOL- booked this online before we left, as I liked the idea of only 6 people on boat at a time. 4 of us sailed with a honeymoon couple. Our boat was the Jolly Mon, and it was great. Gary & Gail (captains/owners) were wonderful. Sailed to Buck Island in St. Thomas (around 45 minutes), snorkled for first time----we loved it, saw a lot of fish and a rare turtle. Sailed back only using sails and had rum punch (sodas for kids)---really a great time. Walked around St. Thomas maybe an hour at Havensight as all stores were closing.
St. Martin - arrived at 8:00 - beautiful island - booked Joyce Prince months ago. She is everything I've seen written about her on cruise critic. Excellent tour guide and great person. We were able to see so much more than if we were on our own. If you are looking to see island, definitely book her. She dropped us off at Orient Beach after 3 hour tour, and we caught a taxi back around 4:30 to ship. Orient beach was beautiful. Clear calm water, white sand---nothing like the beaches we are used to on east coast.
Puerto Rico - arrived at 9:00---really enjoyed it. On our own today, and walked around Old San Juan. Went to Fort Kristobel, did some shopping and ate lunch in a side cafe being serenaded by a guitar while we ate MoFongo-----what a good time. Seems like a lot of people miss out on this port, due to preconceived ideas---we really enjoyed it. Only bad part of the trip was the immigration process due to us being at a foreign port--ridiculous---but not the ships fault, but our governments. Line was long, and people were irritated, and you had to go whether you were getting off of ship or not or risk a fine. Just plain stupid IMO.
Labadee - arrived at 9:00- could have spent days here. What a beautiful tropical island. Went snorkeling for hours off shore (a lot of small fish too look at and all of us enjoyed it so much in St. Thomas, we couldn't wait to get back in water.) Great beaches, authentic Haitan market (they are very aggressive at selling/bartering). Got some nice wooden things, and the girls enjoyed it. BBQ lunch brought over from ship which was very good. They also had Haitians doing singing/dancing, and this was great.
Embarkation - this is the only area where they messed up. Luckily we went to the Dining room for breakfast after we left our room, so we didn't have to wait three hours in the designated areas. Apparently there was a security issue at the port, and they wouldn't let anyone off the ship until 9:00-9:30. Needless to say we waited for around 1 1/2-2 hours in the Palace theatre waiting to leave. They could have a least showed a movie or something to keep us occupied. Luckily I was still on a high from our trip and totally relaxed---otherwise I might have been extremely irritated---but it didn't put a damper on my vacation.
I would recommend this ship to anyone wanting the vacation of a lifetime--would sail here again in a heartbeat Less

Sam and Dean are directed to a small town where the people are prepared to kill demons and a young woman declares herself a prophet.
Next on "Supernatural" the Winchester brothers are plagued with "99 Problems". Sam and Dean are outnumbered by demons, but are saved at the last minute by Rob and his townspeople, who are aware of the Apocalypse, and have been training to fight and kill demons.
The small town is very religious and Sam and Dean meet Pastor Gideon, who introduces them to his daughter Leah, whom he claims is a prophet. Leah tells the townspeople they must obey her orders if they want a spot in Heaven but when she starts turning the townspeople against each other in the name of the Lord, the brothers realize they must kill her.
"99 Problems" airs on April 8. Michael Shanks from "Stargate Universe" guest stars as Rob, Larry Poindexter from "State of the Union" as Pastor Gideon and Kayla Mae Maloney from "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" as Leah.

LeBron James has scored 20 or more points in ever Miami game this season.
That's 23 games.
Why does this matter? Because according to the Associated Press it's the longest streak since 1989-90, when a guy named Karl Malone scored 20-plus in 24 games.
James scored 24 points in the Heat's convincing 105-90 win over Dallas on Thursday. While streaks of this nature are largely superficial, it would be fitting he hit No. 24 against Malone's former team or if the Jazz prevented it.

Diverter Valve Handling Ground Coffee
Customer: Confidential
Material: Ground Coffee
Application: In between storage bin and 2 packing lines
Challenge: Replace leaking diverter and slide gate with one valve
Valves: Vortex Gravity Vee Diverter | Model VA12-2SS-60-NR-WS1-SB
Results: This facility installed their first Vortex valve in 1990. They were so pleased with the sealing capabilities of their Vortex Roller Gate that over the years they've continued to replace problem valves with Vortex products.
After completion of the sale of this company, new management was meeting with a systems group regarding the installation of an additional production line during the summer of 2000. The Vortex representative called with a major concern. The new people were not at all familiar with Vortex. Would there be any way to introduce management to our company by means of a Mobile Display Unit visit within a two weeks notice?
Luckily, Vortex's Mobile Display Unit (MDU) was nearing the end of an eight-week tour. A Vortex sales engineer, who was originally bringing the MDU back to Salina, revised his route to drove 10 hours to the facility, joined the representative for an extensive presentation and then drove the MDU 17 hours to Salina. The presentation resulted in management specifying Vortex valves on their new line. Included were a large quantity of Vortex Roller Gates, Wye Line Diverters and three Multi-Port Diverters.
During a sales call a few summers ago, the company was discussing a problem they were having with a pre-Vortex diverter being used in their old line. The diverter and shut off slide gate (located above it) were at the bottom of a storage bin that was diverting ground coffee into two different coffee can packaging lines. The diverter leaked terribly and had always been a source of irritation. The rep immediately suggested a VA12-2SS-60-NR-WS1-SB Vortex Gravity Vee Diverter with air purge. The independent actuators on the Gravity Vee allowed the company to do away with the separate isolation slide gate. The company really liked the diverter's sealing capabilities. Our successful relationship with this company continues due to an attentive Vortex representative.

|the only noteworthy thing, on this otherwise bland pitch, is that it is really poorly bolted for a modern route. expect bolts really close together on easy trivial climbing, and a poorly protected crux section with really ugly fall potential.

I agree with Slim, one runout above the only place to bust your ankles. I'd assume it was bolted on lead by the nature of the bolting.
Also, tie a knot in your rope before lowering. It's a long pitch, you might need to lower off into the gully on the right if you don't have a 70m.

Hammers held by Spurs
West Ham United 0-0 Spurs
West Ham came crashing back down to earth in the league after their heroics in the cup at the weekend with a goalless draw against Spurs at Upton Park.
The Hammers hit the woodwork twice with a Frank Lampard header and a Stuart Pearce free-kick, but struggled to find the net despite dominating the game.
The opening half hour was a scrappy affair, galvanised only by flashes of brilliance from Joe Cole, Paolo di Canio and Frederic Kanoute.
However, it was Spurs who had a glorious chance to open the scoring less than three minutes into the match.
A loose ball landed at the feet of Sergei Rebrov from Steffen Freund's long throw but the Ukrainian could get no real power into his 15-yard shot and it bounced once before nestling in the arms of goalkeeper Shaka Hislop.
Much of the pre-match talk centred around the loan signing of Sheffield Wednesday star Andy Booth and it took the striker only fifteen minutes to get the ball in the back of the net.
The lively Darren Anderton skipped down the right before delivering a pin-point cross which the former Huddersfield forward powered past Shaka Hislop.
However, Booth's celebrations were cut short by the linesman flag and the goal was disallowed.
West Ham, who began the game sluggishly, gradually shook off their FA Cup hangover as the game progressed with Frank Lampard guilty of a number of misses.
First the youngster sent an ambitious scissors kick flying over the bar into the London night sky.
Then, after Kanoute had a goal ruled out, a piece of di Canio magic provided Lampard with a wonderful chance but the midfielder's bullet header crashed against the Spurs crossbar.
As the second half got underway, the West Ham onslaught began.
First, di Canio and Kanoute spurned opportunities and then Pearce struck the post with a ferocious free kick from the right.
Spurs, though, emerged from their shell and Rebrov's shot looked goalbound in the 55th minute until it hit Tihinen in the stomach.
The Finn made an even more important clearance three minutes later when he acrobatically hooked the ball from under the bar after Oyvind Leonhardsen.
However, neither side looked like breaking the deadlock and the game ended goalless, leaving both sets of fans disappointed.
West Ham: Hislop, Stuart Pearce, Dailly, Tihinen, Winterburn, Schemmel, Carrick, Cole, Lampard, Di Canio, Kanoute. Subs: Forrest, Moncur, Song, Camara, Soma.
Tottenham: Walker, Doherty, Campbell, Perry, King, Freund, Anderton, Leonhardsen, Clemence, Booth, Rebrov. Subs: Segers, Young, Sherwood, McEwen, Thelwell.
Referee: Neale Barry (Scunthorpe).

Ignorance Justifies Dysfunction
The following was sent to J.A.I.L. by a Florida JAILer in response to our "Safety Everything" JNJ, and it is so basically simple that it's worth amplifying and sharing with our subscribers and readers. Here's what Jeremy said:
It is all too obvious that THEIR GOVERNMENT is making mockery of Our USA Constitution and Declaration of Independence. It is all so clear now that We The People must defend Her against the intrusions brought on by a dysfunctional government. Ignorance justifies dysfunction and dysfunction justifies destruction. We must act in an orderly manner to dismantle the ignorance and reverse the dysfunction to reconstruct Our/Their liberty and safety from "GOVERNMENTS", foreign and domestic, to achieve Happiness and Prosperity, to be free and to live free from tyranny, oppression and usurpation. Our intellectual property is Ours, not theirs.
God Bless,
Jeremy Laughery
Florida JAILer
The first point Jeremy makes is "their government" making a mockery of "Our" Constitution and Declaration of Independence. Obviously "their government" refers to the mock government that disrespects
the People's
Constitution and Declaration of Independence. It is important to bear in mind that the "powers that be" are
"governments" as described in the Declaration, to wit: "That to secure [our unalienable rights among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness],
are instituted among men...." WE NO LONGER HAVE A GOVERNMENT power in this country, by definition according to our Founding Document, the Declaration. It has become a mockery!
Next Jeremy describes this mock power as a "dysfunctional government" against which the People must defend their unalienable rights from intrusion.
Our Founding Document states "...it is [the People's] duty to throw off such governments, and to provide new guards for their future security. ..." IT IS OUR DUTY TO THROW OFF SUCH [MOCK] GOVERNMENTS.
Then Jeremy describes how and why this mock power has developed. He says
Ignorance justifies dysfunction and dysfunction justifies destruction.
Dysfunction describes the mock government which is the medium through which [the People's] Ignorance develops into [the People's] Destruction. The Declaration states that governments "deriv[e] their just powers from the consent of the governed [i.e., the People], ..." The People are the source of legitimate government power. Only through the Ignorance of the People in failing to realize the inherently corrupt nature of government power ("power corrupts") and in thus failing to provide an enforcement provision in the body of the Constitution, have they and the Constitutional Republic become Destroyed. Remember, WE THE PEOPLE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF OUR REPUBLIC, THROUGH OUR OWN IGNORANCE.
So the question is, What are we going to do about it? Jeremy says that
We must act in an orderly manner to dismantle the ignorance and reverse the dysfunction to reconstruct Our/Their liberty and safety from "GOVERNMENTS", foreign and domestic, to achieve Happiness and Prosperity, to be free and to live free from tyranny, oppression and usurpation.
Folks, that is exactly what J.A.I.L. will accomplish!
1. First, JAILers must "act in an orderly manner to dismantle [public] ignorance" by educating the people of the
root problem
(judicial corruption).
2. Then, J.A.I.L. (when in effect) will "reverse the dysfunction [of government] to reconstruct Liberty and [Security] from government [intrusion] to achieve Happiness and Prosperity, to be Free, and to Live Free from tyranny, oppression and usurpation."
(It is our DUTY to... provide new guards for [our] future security. -Declaration of Independence).
Our intellectual property is Ours
by making J.A.I.L. operable to accomplish the above goal.
J.A.I.L.- Judicial Accountability Initiative Law - href="../../index.html">www.jail4judges.org
JAIL is a unique addition to our form of gov't. heretofore unrealized.
JAIL is powerful! JAIL is dynamic! JAIL is America's ONLY hope!
JAIL is taking America like a wildfire!
JAIL is making inroads into Congress for federal accountability!

CXADR (coxsackie virus and adenovirus receptor), also known as CAR, is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the CTX family of the Ig superfamily, and is essential for normal cardiac development in the mouse. Proposed as a homophilic cell adhesion molecule, CXADR is a component of the epithelial apical junction complex that is essential for the tight junction integrity, and probably involved in transepithelial migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). Mature mouse CXADR structrually comprises a 218 aa extracellular domain (ECD) with a V-type (D1) and a C2-type (D2) Ig-like domain, a 21 aa transmembrane segment and a 107 aa intracellular domain, among which,D1 is thought to be responsible for homodimer formation in trans within tight junctions. The ECD of mouse CXADR shares 97%, 90% sequence identity with the corresponding regions of rat, human CXADR.
