This brand new cottage, built in 2013, has 2 Bedrooms and 2 Full Bathrooms. The cottage has a lot of comfort and beauty packed into only 800 interior square feet.
The Master Suite has a Queen Size Sleep Number Bed with private access to the Master Bathroom, a closet and a dresser. There are glass french doors that open up to the 300 square foot porch that water and beautiful landscape.
The second bedroom is equipped with 2 bunk beds (4 twin beds total), a dresser and a closet. The second bathroom is adjacent the bedroom and also has a full bath tub / shower. The second bathroom also has direct access to the back porch.
The bedroom suites are separated by an elegant living space that includes a full kitchen, dining table and seating area with a flat screen television. This smart TV is equipped with music (for those who prefer a true getaway), with Netflix and other movie options, and basic cable. The kitchen comes with the essentials - double oven, microwave, coffee maker, espresso machine, pots and pans and dishes.
The 300+ square foot porch is equipped with an outdoor shower and a grill for true summer enjoyment. The views of the water are so serene, and a joy for the periodic visit from a flock of ducks visiting a neighbor who feeds them.
With the quietness and serenity of this getaway, it is surprising to think that you are less than 2 miles from the luxuries of the city - grocery shopping, restaurants, bars, and many site-seeing hotspots.
Our names are Joshua & Rachel. We live in and love the community where the cottage is located. We have been searching high and low for a property on the water that we can love and appreciate and share with others.
We have experienced the joy and peace of renting waterfront properties in the past and desired to be able to share that experience with others.
We have a beautiful family of 4 boys, 2 dogs and 1 cat.
Joshua Czyz purchased this cottage in 2013
When we walked onto this property, we knew it was the one. It is quaint and pleasant from the front ... but that is very deceiving. Upon entering the front door, with immediate views out the back windows, you realize that you are somewhere special. It is truly like taking a short drive and a few steps into a whole new world of peace and serenity.
This cottage has a full kitchen and dining area.
There is high speed internet for the business-person or entertainment/internet buff.
The conveniences of a small city with the serenity of a private waterfront property.
A great cottage! We had a wonderful time. So much to see and do in the Auburn, Seneca Falls, Waterloo, Geneva area! Thanks!
Really a restful and enjoyable place to stay. A nicely decorated and yet comfortable accommodation, with all the conveniences.
Lovely relaxing retreat. The cottage was immaculate. The well equipped kitchen combined with the grill out back supplied us with everything we needed to make delicious home cooked summer meals. We enjoyed the kayaking on the outlet as well as observing the wild life. We met the owner and his family and they could not have been nicer or more accommodating. This is a great place!!
We very much enjoyed our stay. The main living area/kitchen is a bit small, but the home is modern and clean with two good sized bathrooms. The layout was perfect for our small family (2 children under 2 yrs old). The back porch is great. The rear view of the water is peaceful and the street is quiet. Most of all, I appreciated the great service and responsiveness we got from the owners. Very helpful and easy to deal with. We'll look to rent this space again on future trips home to Auburn.
The location is very central to the Finger Lakes region, you can within an hour hit many of the finger lakes. Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge is a quick drive, Waterloo outlets, Syracuse, and so much more if you actually even want to leave!
Beyond that the cottage is wonderfully done, clean, and set up. The common area in the middle separates the master room from the other room, each with their own bathroom. The back porch just begs to be used as it looks out over the water, and if you want to grab a few sun fish they are all over the place right off the dock. It's in a nice quiet area so you can have a drink and read, play some board games, watch some tv, if you just want to stay in.
The owners really go out out of their way to make sure you feel at home, with little touches like pandora loaded up and ready for your addition of channel picks.
I've rented cottages several times now, and I've never felt more at home.
My wife and I stayed here for our 13th wedding anniversary. We really wanted to stay somewhere quiet and relaxing and this was the perfect place. From the comfortable sleep number bed to the relaxing swing on the back porch this quaint cottage was the perfect setting for a relaxing weekend. Close enough to great restaurants and attractions but far enough away to sit on the back porch and enjoy the view of the water, we loved this little house. We concluded our weekend with a short trip up the river to Owasco lake in the kayaks. Can't wait to stay here again.
In town for a family reunion from Virginia and found this beautiful cottage on the canal to meet all of our needs! The cottage was situated in a great location close to shopping and had lovely access to the water! Surprised and happy to find life jackets and floats as well as many other amenities including soap and condiments so that we didn't have to load up at the grocery store after a long trip. Made sure we just replaced what we used up! Joshua even brought us a fan to use at our request! Had an absolute wonderful time! Hope to visit Auburn again someday!
This beautiful cottage is set in Auburn, known as History's Hometown. It is a small city with big history. There are many attractions within short driving distances.
The cottage is under 2 miles from live theater , the Harriet Tubman Home and the Seward House. Within a short drive are many options for premier Wine Tours in the Finger Lakes Region.
Auburn gives you easy access to much more than the Finger Lakes as well. The cottage is within 30 minutes from Syracuse and Seneca Falls and within 60 minutes from Rochester and Ithaca.

First Solar has been climbing, and one investor wants to protect those gains.
optionMONSTER's Depth Charge tracking program detected the purchase of 4,000 March 30 puts for $5 and the sale of an equal number of March 26 puts for $2.95. Volume was below open interest in the 26s but not the 30s, indicating that an existing position was rolled from one strike to the other.
The investor probably owns shares in the solar-energy stock and has been using the puts as a hedge . Adjusting the position cost $2.05, and raised by $4 the level at which they have protection against a pullback. (See our Education section)
FSLR is up 0.87 percent to $30.20 in morning trading and has roughly tripled since June. The stock has been rallying back after a selloff in the solar industry erased more than 90 percent of its value in the preceding 16 months.
The shares are now back near a level where they bounced in December 2011, which could be leading some chart watchers to expect resistance and help explain today's bearish option activity.
Puts account for more than three-quarters of the activity in the name so far today, according to the Depth Charge.

Tumble In The Rough
I can't eat
I can't sleep,
I can't live
I can't cry
I can't die
I can't walk
I can't talk
I can booze
Steal your shoes
So I can move
Tumble in the rough
Tumble in the rough
Tumble in the rough
Tumble in the rough
I'm looking for a new meditation
Still looking for a new way to fly
Don't want any plastic validation
Not looking for a new way to die
I made excuses for a million lies,
But all I got was humble kidney pie
So what
I'm lookin for a new stimulation
Quite bored of those inflatable ties
I'm lookin for a new rock sensation
Dead fish don't swim around in jealous tides
I made excuses for a million lies
But all I got was humble kidney pie
So what....

Nairobi (AFP) Feb 15, 2014
South Sudan and Uganda must investigate the use of banned cluster bombs in the recent fighting for the town of Bor, Human Rights Watch said Saturday.
United Nations experts found remnants of the bombs, including unexploded "bomblets", earlier this month close to Bor, a town that has changed hands four times in the latest fighting in South Sudan that started in mid-December.
The experts said they were found in an "area not known to be contaminated by remnants prior to mid-December 2013."
Cluster bombs, so called because they consists of clusters of scores or hundreds of submunitions or bomblets, are particularly deadly to civilian populations because many of the bomblets do not explode immediately on impact but lie hidden only to explode months or years after a conflict is over, often when handled by children.
"The young nation of South Sudan has enough problems without these horrific weapons, which kill and keep on killing long afterwards," said Steve Goose, arms division director at New-York-based HRW.
"The governments involved should quickly find out who is behind this and make clear they will be held responsible," added Goose.
Since mid-December Bor, the Jonglei State capital, and the area around it have changed hands several times in clashes between government forces, the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA), and opposition forces loyal to former vice president Riek Machar.
The Ugandan military has been supporting South Sudan's government forces, including with air power.
The remnants found by the UN experts were of cluster bombs of the RBK-250-275 type, manufactured in the former Soviet Union, dropped by aircraft or helicopters.
UN chief Ban Ki-moon has condemned the use of cluster bombs in South Sudan, but has not indicated who the UN believes was responsible.
South Sudanese and Ugandan forces possess the air power to deliver air-dropped cluster munitions, while the opposition forces "are not believed to possess the means necessary to deliver these bombs," HRW said.
South Sudan government forces use the Mi-17 Hip helicopter, which is capable of dropping cluster munitions. However, there were no reports or allegations of any use of cluster munitions by the SPLA in the past when it functioned as a rebel armed force, the group said.
South Sudan's defence minister Kuol Manyang Juuk has strongly denied that any cluster munitions have been used, telling the Citizen newspaper: "It is not true, cluster bombs have never been used in the fighting."
Uganda's top military officials likewise deny having used cluster bombs, or indeed any bombs in the South Sudan conflict. Their subordinates on the ground have however told media they did carry out bombing raids.
HRW said it has evidence that the type of cluster bomb found near Bor was used at some point during the years of fighting between the Ugandan military and the Lord's Resistance Army rebels.

GNAT is a small audio collection tool to associate local audio files with semantic web URIs.
GNAT creates small RDF files in the folders of your music collection, such as :
These can then be used by a tool such as gnarql[1] to expose this information through a SPARQL endpoint and allow futher information to be gathered about your collection.
- Written and tested on python 2.4 but may work fine on 2.3 or 2.5 - let us know if you try :)
- Python libraries :
- rdflib v2.4.0 [2] (easy_install)
- mutagen v1.11 [3] (easy_install)
- musicbrainz2 SVN later than 02/08/2007 (sorry) [4]
- genpuid [5] (included)
- mopy [1] (included)
- Track lookup based on local metadata :
./AudioCollection.py metadata /path/to/music
- Track lookup based on MusicDNS fingerprinting :
./AudioCollection.py fingerprint /path/to/music
- Clean all .rdf files :
./AudioCollection.py clean /path/to/music
Note : the metadata and fingerprinting lookups may safely be run in parallel.
If you do not have filesystem access to the audio collection you wish to identify,
or wish to override the local metadata available in tags, you may run GNAT in
metadata mode using a CSV file as input, with lines of the form :
URI, Artist Name, Album Name, Track Name
URI, Artist Name, Album Name, Track Name, Track Number
The URI may be any unique identifier you wish, but for the generated RDF to be useful,
we suggest using identifiers from a HTTP namespace you control, or local file:// URIs
eg. http://www.mydomain.org/experiment381/track001
If you prefer simple CSV output, use the -c command line switch, and an info_metadata.csv
file will be created with lines of the form :
local URI, Semantic Web URI
For example :
./AudioCollection.py -c metadata test.csv
will run GNAT on each file described in test.csv, outputting the resulting URIs to the
file info_metadata.csv.

How to Dress like Lady Gaga
March 31, 2009 by Anna
Filed under Style & Trends
Fun, funky, sparkly, 80s and always over the top! She pushes the envelope in her fashion choices, always taking risks and it works. I can't get enough of her and her popularity is just growing with every passing day. I'm talking about Lady Gaga. She is a performance artist and we haven't really seen a good one since Britney. Some people think they can just get up on stage, not rehearse and start their songs over and over. So no matter what you think of Lady Gaga's fashion choices or her as an artist, at least we know she gives us a show. And I appreciate it.
I realize that in the "real" world, you can't go around wearing hot pants. And it's a shame, they should really start making this acceptable...nevermind, I got a visual of my former boss in hot pants and it wasn't good. So, I am going to take some elements of her outfits and incorporate it into everyday clothes and going out clothes. Here are 3 different looks we've seen Lady Gaga sporting...
Look #1: Rocker in shiny black
This look is very easy to recreate. All you need are some liquid leggings, a liquid top, a black jumpsuit, and some other patent leather accessories. The leather gloves, the big patent leather bow in her hair are all key to her style. This look is most acceptable for going out or you can wear the jumpsuit as everyday wear. It's fun, it's rocker chic and sexy. If you need a splash of color, wear a bright red bangle, or colored pumps. If you don't want to wear black liquid leggings with a black liquid top, go for a bright color tank top or tube top. It will be sure to add some flavor to your Lady Gaga inspired outfit.
Create your own Lady Gaga rocker look:

Look#2: Give me some color
A true fashionista is always on top of the trends. I have been talking about color, color, color, over and over for this year and I am not the only one well aware of this. Mixing and matching bold colors is not only fashion forward, but a lot of fun! In these examples, Lady Gaga is wearing a red silky hoodie/scarf with a blue blazer and a yellow body suit. To incorporate this to everyday wear, you can use a red scarf, blue cardigan and a yellow tank top with jeans or a skirt and that is how you could replicate the look. You could wear it to work (depending on your line of work), jeans would make it casual for everyday wear and throw on the red gloves and a black miniskirt for going out at night. The key to this is to not be afraid of color and lots of it. If you don't know what colors go well together, look at a color wheel and find the complementary colors. These colors are on the opposite end of the spectrum, giving you an intense, vibrant and bold look.

Look #3: Origami Dress
This dress is probably the hardest to exactly replicate for everyday wear. It is hard to find and probably hard to pull off at any "normal" function. So instead, I let this dress inspire me to incorporate pleating or geometric detailing in my usual outfits or a dress. I love the cut and length of these dresses. It's great for short or tall people, it's flirty and girly. You could get a short party dress and funk it up with one big chunky geometric belt or multiple small ones to get the same feel. To replace the origami craziness on her shoulder, go with a chunky geometric necklace.

When dressing like Lady Gaga, you must always remember to make a statement, take risks, and have a lot of fun with fashion!
Where To Buy Cheap MAC Makeup
March 27, 2009 by Anna
Filed under Hair & Makeup
After doing a lot of research, I stumbled upon ioffer.com and ebay for large wholesale lots of MAC makeup. At the counter, you can spend about $14-$16 per eyeshadow right? If you and a friend or family member go in on it together, you can get a wholesale lot of MAC eyeshadows for about $2.60 each! Initially, you may be investing $50-$70, but you will never have to buy eyeshadow again. I trust ebay more personally because I've heard shady things about ioffer. But if you're familiar with ioffer.com and you wanna try buying it there, they have even better deals. Ebay is more reputable and you can always count on the seller's ratings to be true and accurate. A lot of products from ioffer are sold by people in China who aren't the best when it comes to communication.
Also, if you don't already have the MAC brushes, this is what takes your makeup artist skills to the next level. You need a good set of brushes. At the MAC store you'd be paying about $25 per brush. You can get a set of 25 brushes on ebay or amazon for like $30-$40.
Be careful with websites who claim to have cheap MAC makeup, but don't have a contact or location where they do business. You don't want to wire or paypal your money through and be left with no product in hand. That would not be fabulous...

Ok, let's talk about pet fashions. It's just as important to keep your pets looking absolutely fabulous, stylish and well manicured at all times!
I once took my cat to the groomers and spent $60 on a bath, haircut, and nail clipping. When he got home, his nails were split all the way to the root! I was devastated because I don't even want to know why a professional groomer wouldn't know, or worse, wouldn't even care about properly trimming a pets nails. Like humans, pets have veins that, when cut too deep, will cause the vein to bleed. This is painful for the pet and the memory of the pain lasts longer than you think. If you don't trim the nails altogether, that's going to cause problems as well. The nails will grow out too long and end up curving in and possibly puncturing the pads of their paws. This can also cause arthritis because they won't be able to stand on their feet properly. What I'm saying is, give your precious babies a mani/pedi!!
I saw PediPaws on the infomercial and wondered if it actually worked. I buckled down and got it and I love it! Of course, the ease of use depends on your pet and how well they react to having their paw held. You have to ease them in with the lowest setting to not startle them with the noise and vibration. Filing each nail only takes a few seconds, so be careful not to overdo it. This is a great alternative to trimming if you're not confident you're doing it right. It's also a cost effective way keep your pets nails under control in between vet trips.
Ordering this product through the TV infomercial is always tricky. They always have a lot of hidden fees and outrageous shipping prices that you have to be careful of. Pedi Paw is sold at Walgreens, CVS, Bed Bath and Beyond and I've also seen it at Fry's. Fry's is like Best Buy for us here in California, so it might be at Best Buy too. It's sold at these places for about $19.99. Which is affordable, but it is on Ebay for much cheaper. Cheap enough for you to try it out and see if it's suitable for your furry little family members! They need the mani/pedi's more than we do!
Farmer Chic: Fashion in the Country
March 24, 2009 by Anna
Filed under Style & Trends
There's no reason why my fellow Kentuckians should have any problems wearing something more fashion forward. Yes guys, there is such a thing as a "farmers daughter" or "farmer chic" trend going on here. The style is feminine, flirty and 'oh so' much fun! For the Californians, we've taken this look and twisted it just a little bit to give it more of an edge. Maybe it's something like taking a plaid or gingham shirt with jean shorts but then wearing a pair of bright colored booties to give it a little bit more of a mod/rocker flair. It's all about taking a look or a trend and pushing it forward a little bit and taking a risk. As I say all the time, it's all about the confidence and the attitude. With that, you can make any look flatter your own individuality.
So....if you want to dabble into the farmer look, I'm gonna break it down for you. Here are the basics:
According to yahoo, a farmer is: 1. One who works on or operates a farm. 2. A simple, unsophisticated person; a bumpkin....ouch, that's a little harsh. Well at least we know the definition of the look. From this, we can assume many details about this look that gives us the farmer flair. It's very casual, uses many cottons, flannels, denim and comfortable materials, and it's simple. For a girl, the farmer look is very flirty, fun and feminine. Little details like tying your shirt and showing your midriff, or tattered short shorts still gives us sexy but still very casual look. Jessica Simpson is a good example of someone who sports this look successfully.
The Clothes
Jewel toned colors (navy, red, purple, dark green) is a great place to start. However, if you want to do more pastels, that will work too. For some pattern, small floral prints, plaids, gingham, and checkered are key to the farmer look. With floral prints, if you go with a bigger floral print in pastel colors, then you're getting into "Tea Party" type of southern. And while that's fine, that's not the down home farmer honky tonk look that I'm telling you about. So stay away from too much pastel for now until you have mastered the art of what IS "farmer". Yea you heard me...art. Also, you want to incorporate some sheers and use layers. Layer a simple white girly corset underneath your cotton plaids or floral shirts, or layer a tank top underneath your plaid or floral sheers to complete the look.
The Accessories
As far as jewelry is concerned, less is more. If I'm out milking the cows, I wouldn't want my jewelry to be caught on anything that can be found in a barn. That doesn't mean that you can't incorporate bulky jewelry to give the farmer look your own flair, but again, I'm just breaking down the basics for you. Accessory details are found more in belts and handbags. The belt buckle is usually pretty big and bulky, with jewels or studded details. For handbags, think suede or denim. I very much dislike that denim purse that looks like a pair of blue jeans, but it is very appropriate for this. If you can rock it, more power to ya.
So there are some basic things you need to know to be a farmer. Now take everything I said and modify it into your own. Don't be afraid to mix and match the farmer look with a rocker edge or try glamming it up a little bit. Have fun with it!

Killeen Daily Herald
Early Friday morning, a cool breeze swept through Parrie Haynes Ranch, a 4,500-acre retreat near Killeen. A group of students from Morgan Mill School left their laptops and music players at home to immerse themselves in 19th century living.
They helped harness two horses onto a chuck wagon before taking an hourlong trail ride to a log cabin. There they learned how to shuck corn, churn butter and decipher which berries were safe to eat. Later, the students devoured turkey and flatbread.
"Everything kind of slows down here," eighth-grader Hunter Hightower said.
Texas Parks and Wildlife and the Texas Equestrian Trail Riders Association organized a series of history and nature lessons this week that taught students how American settlers lived during the Civil War era.
"We try to teach kids about life without the iPods and Gameboys, and show them that there is a life different from there's," said Debby Alley, TETRA program director.
Students from Morgan Mill traveled more than three hours to attend the daylong event. Four other schools from across Texas took part in similar activities earlier in the week.
Dressed in a floor-length dress and matching bonnet, Rita Motley, a TETRA volunteer, explained the history behind the dogtrot cabin that still stands at the ranch.
Thomas Jefferson Priddy, a former Texas Ranger, built the cabin out of logs in 1863.
Priddy lived in the cabin for 18 years with his wife, Clarissa, and their four children. The cabin still stands at Parrie Haynes Ranch, on the banks of the Lampasas River.
"We'd rather be out here learning about history than be inside learning from a textbook," said Tallen Halliday, an eighth-grader.
Alley said she hopes the activities increased the students' interest in the outdoors.
"A little boy told me yesterday, 'I'm going to buy me a ranch, and I'm going to have kids come stay,'" Alley said. "That's one of the main reasons we do this."

volleyball by brittney and maggie
We're Brittney and Maggie, and whether we're bumping, setting, or spiking, volleyball is our favorite game. Like any team activity, communication really helps. Sharing information and cheering on our teammates guides and motivates our teammates during this lightening-fast game. But how much is too much? Our DragonflyTV query is this: Is talking on the court helpful or just plain distracting?
What did we do?
We scrimmaged with another team to test whether the number of players communicating influenced our team's success. We played ten serves where no player talked, ten serves where only the captain talked, and ten serves where all six players talked.
What did we find out?
We learned that our team did the best when everyone was communicating. We know, though, that this is a skill that comes only after a lot of practice and time together.
- Some people can "filter out" distracting sounds better than others. Get a group of friends and try an experiment. Have one friend be the listener, and three other friends be talkers. Two of the talkers will each recite a different fairy tale. The third talker will tell an unfamiliar story. When you are ready to begin, all three talkers start talking on top of each other. The listener closes her eyes, and tries to listen to the unfamiliar story, filtering out the other talkers. After 2 minutes of chatter, everybody stops talking, and the listener tries to re-tell the unfamiliar story. How many details will she get?
- Remember the trick of talking to someone using two cups and a long string? Remember the game of "telephone", where you pass a message along from person-to-person, and by the end the message comes out completely different? Try an experiment using both games! Make a set of several cups-and-string communicators. Get some friends, and spread yourselves apart. Make sure there is a cup-and-string communicator between each pair of people. Have the first person start a message through the cup-and-string to the next person. The second person continues the message to the next player through the next cup-and-string, and so on. How effective is this communication method? Can you improve the results by changing the kind of string, or the size of the cup?
- Use this sports science investigation as a science fair project idea for your elementary or middle school science fair! Then tell us about it!
SciLinks More on hearing.

Shelter destroyedConstruction company responds to fire with water truck
Roxanna Thompson
Northern News Services
Published Thursday, Aug. 16, 2012
Flood and his wife were returning to Hay River, where they moved four months ago, after a sightseeing trip to Yellowknife. The couple had been visiting places along the way and one of their guidebooks suggested the Dory Point Territorial Park, located on Highway 3 near the Mackenzie River ferry crossing, was a good place to take photos of the river.
In addition to the view, the couple found the charred remains of the kitchen shelter. A fire had reduced the octagonal structure to a skeletal frame and the end of one of the beams was still smoldering at approximately 5 p.m., said Flood.
"It's a great shame," Flood said. "It's sad, very sad."
The fire started either late Sunday night, Aug. 5, or early on Monday morning, said Mike Couvrette, a regional programs co-ordinator for the South Slave region with the Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment.
Staff with Ruskin Construction Ltd., the company building the Deh Cho Bridge, reported the fire to the RCMP shortly after midnight on Monday morning. The ferry had already shut down for the night, preventing the Fort Providence Volunteer Fire Department from responding, Couvrette said.
Ruskin used one of its water trucks to try and extinguish the fire.
"We are extremely disappointed," said Couvrette about the loss of the structure.
"This is the first one we've had burn."
The shelter was similar to ones that the department also has at Chan Lake, the Fort Providence Territorial Park and the Kakisa day use area. The screened in kitchen shelters are designed to provide travellers with a sheltered place to have a small fire for cooking. The shelter had a small firepit in its centre.
Couvrette said he is disappointed someone would either let a fire get that out of control or would light a fire purposefully to damage the shelter. To rebuild the shelter would take more than $200,000 including labour and materials, he said.
Cleaning up
The department has asked a contractor to provide a quote for cleaning up the remains of the shelter.
Couvrette said Dory Point Territorial Park does see a reasonable amount of traffic and is a nice place for people to stop. In addition to the kitchen shelter, the park also has picnic tables, a covered barbecue area and washrooms along with a view of the Mackenzie River.
Phone calls to the RCMP about whether they are investigating the fire and how it started were not returned by press time.

FBI says 9 children rescued, 6 pimps arrested in Colo.-Wyoming child sex trafficking sweep
July 31, 2013
DENVER — Law enforcement officers in a region that includes Colorado and Wyoming have rescued nine children and arrested six pimps in a three-day, nationwide sweep aimed at curbing child sex trafficking and underage prostitution, the FBI said Monday.
The children were among 105 recovered in 76 cities nationwide, the FBI said.
FBI spokesman Dave Joly of the agency's Denver office said many if not all of the rescued children are girls. About 15 agencies including police departments from Casper, Wyo., to Pueblo, Colo., helped with the arrests involving the FBI's Denver division. Details of the arrests weren't immediately available.
Meagan Morris, outreach and development coordinator for the Laboratory to Combat Human Trafficking in Denver, which runs a 24-hour hotline for victims in Colorado and trains law-enforcement agencies on the issue, said advocates around the state have identified more than 300 children, women and men who have been forced to either sell sex or to work in other jobs against their will over the last six years in Colorado.
She said it's hard to tell how Colorado's problem with trafficking compares with other states. Having two main interstate highways, the largest international airport for about 600 miles, a large tourism industry with many service workers and a large population of homeless youth help contribute to trafficking — whether for prostitution or other work — in Colorado, she said.
However, she said Colorado advocates have also raised awareness of the issue and trained law enforcement on how to handle such cases, which could make arrests more likely.

Get ready for the $99 iPhone, say 'people familiar with the situation.' Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) is said to be readying a cheaper version of its iOS smartphone. However, some say it's only for emerging markets, so good luck getting one.
In IT Blogwatch, bloggers look up 'grey import' on Wikipedia.
Your humble blogwatcher curated these bloggy bits for your entertainment.
For Jessica E. Lessin, less is more:
[Apple's] supremacy in smartphones has slipped. ...a less expensive version of its flagship device could launch later this year...with a different, less-expensive body...made of polycarbonate plastic. ... A spokeswoman for the Cupertino, Calif., company declined to comment.
...An onslaught of lower cost rivals powered by Google Inc.'s Android operating system are gaining market share. ... Apple [has] 14.6% of worldwide smartphone shipments, down from a peak of 23%...according to IDC. Samsung Electronics Co.'s share [is] 31.3%. MORE
Olga Kharif and Adam Satariano swell the chorus:
[It's] part of a push to gain customers in developing nations. Apple...is weighing retail prices of $99 to $149. ... More affordable iPhones would help Apple play catch-up with smartphone makers such as Samsung. ... Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook has said China is a priority.
...Adding a less-expensive version of the iPhone would be a strategy shift for Apple, which has until now tried to appeal to more budget-conscious customers by cutting the prices of older models. MORE
But John Gruber alleges statistical chicanery in Lessin's argument:
This makes it sound like Apple's iPhone sales peaked in 2011, but that's not true. ... Apple's share of "smartphones" dropped...because even though iPhone sales continued to grow, they didn't grow as fast as the entire handset industry's shift to smartphones.
...Apple's share of worldwide phone shipments has done nothing but go up since 2007. [But maybe] Apple needs to introduce new lower-cost phones for this to remain true. MORE
So Neil McAllister outlines the problem:
Apple launched its current iPhone 5 in China in December, and while sales were solid, they were hardly phenomenal. ... Meanwhile, the Chinese mobile phone market is awash with all manner of cheap kit from the likes of Huawei.
...None of the tongues wagging about a lower-priced iPhone were able to give any concrete information on when it might ship. ... If it does move forward, however, it should do so soon, as Apple is hardly the only company with its eye on...the developing world. ... Those are billions of customers Apple can't afford to pass up. MORE
Meanwhile, MG Siegler suggests the dead hand of Apple PR:
This report seems to surface every year. ... That said, there does seem to be more gathering momentum...this time around. I smell a faint hint of Apple.
...I do think Apple has to be careful here. ...if such a device was popular enough, it would definitely drive down Apple's famous margins. ... Just wait until we see what the iPad mini does to the margin this quarter. MORE
But wait! Doesn't Apple already sell older iPhone models for cheap? Here's JP Mangalindan:
Of course, Apple already sells older iPhone models at deep discounts.
...Made to choose between an older model or a so-called "new" model at the same price point, users will spring for the latter. ...there's a certain amount of pride in purchasing the hottest device. A purpose-built cheaper iPhone would be just that. MORE

He was credited with expanding the Maratha empire. Ranveer was seen as Bajirao opposite his lovelady Deepika as Mastani.
Star Cast and crewActors : Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra
Director : Sanjay Leela Bhansali
Producer : Sanjay Leela Bhansali
Production company : SLB Films
Distributed by : Eros International

But is it waterproof? Robert Scoble needs to know.
Samsung unveils its budget 7-inch Android tablet. With a thin and light form, long battery life, but so-so screen and processor specs, is it a Nexus 7 killer?
In IT Blogwatch, bloggers bring their BYOD brains.
Your humble blogwatcher curated these bloggy bits for your entertainment.
Mat Smith has the official 411:
The Galaxy Tab 3 has gone official and [it] arrives with a 1.2GHz processor, 8GB or 16GB of storage...a 3- and 1.3-megapixel camera array and a substantial 4,000mAh battery.
...That 7-inch WSVGA (1,024 x 600) TFT display suggests it's likely to be a keenly-priced slate. ... Samsung's loaded up the Galaxy Tab 3 with Android 4.1 and says that the WiFi version will launch "globally" in May, while an incoming 3G model...(it'll be able to make calls) will follow in June. MORE
"Keenly-priced"? Luke Westaway prefers "boring":
[This] latest effort is unlikely to have Google's popular tablet quaking in its boots...the hardware on offer doesn't exactly set our hearts aflame.
...1,024x600...is lower than the Nexus 7's 1,280x800 pixel count. ... [Its] dual-core processor [is] not as powerful as the quad-core silicon nestling inside the Nexus 7. ... Android 4.1 [is] an older version of Jelly Bean than you'd get on the...Nexus 7.
...Samsung could still make it worthwhile though, if it slaps a super-cheap price tag on its new toy. MORE
And Richard Devine agrees, saying it "has more than a whiff of the mid-range about it":
The display is somewhat disappointing. ... The cameras too are on the low end of things.
...All this adds up to what should be a keenly priced tablet [but] No pricing has been announced at this time. MORE
So here's Anti-Star Super-Christ's plan:
The only tablet I'm looking forward to is the new Nexus 7. Samsung has become the new Apple, and has settled into just reproducing the same old ****...in an effort to play it safe with consumers. It's sad, really. I guess it's up to HTC or Asus now. MORE
But Nick Summers leaps to its defense:
[It'll have] Samsung's TouchWiz skin and plethora of apps and services plastered on top. This includes Music Hub, Game Hub, Video Hub and Learning Hub, as well as Samsung's ChatON instant messaging client.
...at just 9.9mm thick, it's a pretty slick-looking device. MORE
What's next? Hugh Langley knows:
But don't forget that we're also expecting the imminent arrival of the 10-inch Galaxy Tab 3 Plus, which is rumoured to be packing a more impressive...processor and 2,560 x 1,600 resolution display. MORE
Meanwhile, Robert Triggs brings rumors of future Samsung tablets:
A whole list of Samsung tablet related rumors has popped up this morning, regarding the Tab DUOS, Tab 8.0 AMOLED, Tab 11 Super PLS TFT, and the Nexus 11. ... In typical Samsung fashion, [it] has designed a wide range of new products [for] virtually every consumer that Samsung can dream up.
...the part I found most interesting [is] the Nexus 11. ... Samsung's Nexus 11 still needs approval from Google, so this certainly isn't concrete evidence. ... But if true...the Nexus 11 will be the world's first octo-core tablet, as it will feature an Exynos 5410 processor....

Daily Dishonesty Tumblr
Tumblr of the Day: Daily Dishonesty
We're not sure what inspired designer Lauren Hom to hand-letter little white lies, but we do know one thing: her Daily Dishonesty Tumblr is hilarious — when it doesn't hit too close to home.
The New York City-based graphic illustrator and designer started the project during her senior year of college, combining typography, copywriting, humor, and illustration. The result? A quirky and refreshingly honest look at the ways we're dishonest every day. You can even buy a print ($18) of the lovely lies you're most guilty of.
If you're curious about the process, check out Lauren's tutorial on how she takes type designs from start to finish. For more clever Internet finds, follow us at our tumblehome: popsugartech.tumblr.com.

It was a good night for director Paul Thomas Anderson and the cast of the film "The Master," as the Toronto Film Critics handed out their picks for the year's best.
"The Master" received the top honor for Best Film of the Year. In addition, it took home awards for Anderson in the Best Director and Best Screenplay categories. Philip Seymour Hoffman received the Toronto Film Critics' vote for Best Supporting Actor.
The film has been controversial since its debut, most notably among the Scientology community who have taken issue with the similarities between the lead character and their own founder. This hasn't slowed its momentum, though, as a fave among critics. It's also received top honors from the Los Angeles Critics Association, along with the San Francisco and Kansas City film critics groups.
The awards from the Toronto Film Critics Association will be officially handed out on Jan. 8.

Is the nation's Prime Minister, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, who is known to suffer from diabetes and hypertension, more seriously ill than has been let on following on her surprise hospitalisation at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Barbados earlier this week?
What is the significance of prominent cardiologist, Dr Rasheed Rahaman, being rushed to her bedside in Barbados and accompanying her back to Trinidad on Tuesday afternoon, not by regular commercial airlines flight, but in an Air Guard C26 aircraft? In addition, Dr Rahaman, who has treated two former Prime Ministers of Trinidad and Tobago, Basdeo Panday and Patrick Manning, for heart conditions, accompanied the clearly ailing Persad-Bissessar by helicopter to San Fernando from where they were driven by the PM's security detail to her private residence at Phillipine.

USW Calls on Mich. Gov. Snyder to Veto Right-to-Work-for-Less
Source: New Hampshire Labor News
Michigan working families deserve state ballot vote for their economic future
Pittsburgh (Dec. 11) President Leo W. Gerard of the United Steelworkers (USW) issued the following statement today in an appeal to common sense economics over politics as a Michigan lame-duck legislative session by Republicans rams through a right-to-work-for-less bill for a promised signature by Gov. Rick Snyder.
The USW active and retired members join other unions and allies in Michigan and across the nation to call on Gov. Snyder to support the proposal of the states Democratic congressional delegation. We ask the Governor to use his veto power to stop this unnecessary and divisive right-to-work bill.
If the Governor feels this bill will move Michigan forward, he should delay the final legislative votes and allow an amendment that would put this issue before the public as a state ballot initiative. We urge Governor Snyder to delay his signing of the bill. Let the people of Michigan debate and vote on a consequential matter that will affect all working families.
FULL story at link.

5. He is
part of an extremist right wing Party that has declared War on America. You cannot compromise with these people. The unions was right there with President Obama in our negotiations at the Whitehouse, when they told President Obama not to cut Social Security,Medicare and Medicaid. The Unions were one of the primary reasons that helped President Obama in the Midwest. The only thing they know how to do is dictate and bully their way. That is whats happening with this fiscal Cliff thing. They have no leverage there and President Obama needs to deal with these people accordingly. This guy came in and got elected in 2010. He is bought and paid for. We have to break these people. The Republican Party is doing this all over the country. He want dare put it up for a vote, because he is essentially saying it is my way or the highway. I also think these police officers need to pick sides. There is nothing holding these police officers Union from putting pressure on this Governor either. Why want they strike?

4. Yeah, like that's going to happen.
Snyder's an ass. He tried to portray himself as a nerd, a middle of the road politician when in fact once he was elected he started his war on the rest of us. He's a millionaire many times over and just because he's from Ann Arbor doesn't mean he's liberal.
Many voters got hoodwinked. I know several of them who voted for him who were Democrats.

Water quality and nonpoint sources
in urban watersheds
Key findings from the first decade of NAWQA studies
Water resources in U.S. urban areas are impaired. ("Urban"
refers primarily to residential and commercial development
since World War II.) Many of the impairments are attributable
to nonpoint sources, such as vehicle emissions and applications
of pesticides and fertilizers around homes and in public areas.
Contaminants are widespread in urban streams, and biological
communities are stressed
How local and state officials use
NAWQA assessments to better understand and protect their urban
water resources.
The NAWQA approach of relating surface-water quality
to land use will help us manage water resources in portions
of the Missouri Ozarks now undergoing significant land-use
change (John Ford, Missouri Department of Natural
Resources, U.S.
Geological Survey Circular 1158).
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are widespread in shallow
ground water in urban areas
Sediment and fish tissue in urban areas reflect past chemical
use as well as current trends

Google Finance users got an unexpected surprise this past weekend when using the search term "sell," they were directed to Apple stock. Although the glitch appeared to be a thinly veiled effort to increase sales of Apple stock, Google insists that it was an unintended result of the website's algorithm.
Bloggers began noticing and posting about the issue over the weekend, presuming that the results were an "Easter Egg" or a joke that Google had deliberately
It was later realized that the problem may have originated with the Reuters description that Google Finance used to introduce Apple Stock. The description contains the word "sell" multiple times.
In a statement reported to Search Engine Land, a Google Representative discusses the problem:
"This isn't deliberate — our algorithms seem to be keying off of the words 'sell' and 'sells' in the description of this very popular stock symbol. We're working on how to adjust things so it doesn't happen anymore. The popularity of the ticker is indeed part of this, and why Apple in particular is coming up even though the word may appear in other stock tickers' descriptions."
Google users who assumed the issue was another prank, may have been subjected to a number of Google pranks in the past. Previous "Easter Eggs" or jokes built into the Google search engine have included: Kevin Bacon "bacon numbers," randomly changing dialog with the "I'm Feeling Lucky" option, and "Conway's game of life."
For now the issue has been resolved, a Google Finance search for "sell" no longer immediately brings up Apple Stock

by Dr. John Tetsola
Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread.
He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:
Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:
Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.
The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:
To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.
Psalm 105:16-22
The word of the Lord that has been released or spoken over our lives, ministries and families is going to be tested. Until the word of the Lord is tested, we are not ready for the throne. God is going to enlarge our capacity power to be able to carry and handle the word of promise over our lives and ministries. Most Christians and leaders don't have the capacity power to handle the word of promise that has been spoken over their lives. God brings our enlargement of our capacity by testing the word and allowing it to go through a process of refining and dealings.
Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.
Psalm 105:19
"Until the time that his word came to pass, the word of the Lord tested him." What was this word of Joseph's that had been delayed in its fulfillment? It was the word he spoke based on the dream he received "My father, my mother and my brothers will all bow down before me." He carried a dream - a word of the Lord in his heart. While the manifestation of that word was delayed, that word "tested him."
I wonder if Joseph ever regretted telling his brothers about his dreams. "If I had just kept my mouth shut, I could have saved a lot of face. But no, I just had to open my mouth and tell everybody. And now look at the mess that I am in right now." The truth is, Joseph's declarations of his dreams were an expression of faith. It was a word that was spoken out of the confidence that rose up in his soul. He knew God spoke to him. But then the word tested him. Can you imagine Joseph sitting in his prison cell thinking to himself, "What were those dreams all about? I was so sure they were from God. Am I delusional? Maybe I was deceived. Maybe I did not really hear the voice of God. But, no. It has to be God! I am prepared to bet my life that it was God. God spoke to me and I will never let go of the word of the Lord." The fire on his life during this season must have been incredible.
One of the most painful dynamics of the testing of the word of the Lord in our lives and ministries is the feeling of being excluded from everything that God is doing around you. You sit and watch others progress in God, rejoicing in the Lord, their churches growing, moving about with great freedom and fruitfulness. And there you sit. It is almost like John the Baptist. There is revival happening. The crowds are following Jesus of Nazareth. The reports are incredibly exciting, but John is in chains. How his heart must have yearned within him! He must have longed to participate in the revival meeting. But instead he was languishing in prison. God was not calling him to follow the blessing, but to follow the voice. Many of us will experience this. As the word of the Lord is tested in our lives and ministries, we will be brought to a place where hearing the voice of the Lord becomes greater than the blessing. We see the same thing in Joseph.
By the time God was finished with Joseph, he was an entirely different person, no longer the impetuous lad who had to blurt everything he was seeing and hearing. That is what God does in us as He begins to test the word of promise over our lives. He brings us to a place of maturity in our spirit where we are able to carry out that promise without the involvement of our flesh. The testing of the word of promise over the life of Joseph brought him to a place of maturity where he was willing to waste nine years for his family finally to arrive. When we hold on to the word of promise as that word is being tested, the ability to wait - without scheming and manipulating our way to the throne until the word of promise is fulfilled - becomes an easy task.
It would have been quite tempting during those first years in power to send a memo to his father and brothers in Canaan. "Hey guys, I am alive. And by the way I am the new Prime Minister of Egypt. How do you like that now?" But by now he could see God's purpose clearly in the years of plenty and he knew that the famine would eventually draw his brothers to Egypt. So he waited patiently for God to fulfill His purpose. He had been trained by God, and this training caused him to become a mature co-worker with God. And because he was once a prisoner trained by God, he could now judge righteously and pronounce righteous judgment mixed with empathy. Joseph was equipped for righteous, yet compassionate, leadership.

A BOMB alert has been received by Madrid airport about a Saudi Airlines flight due to take off for the capital, Riyadh.
Airline governing body AENA says the plane had not taken off yet and had been moved to a secure area of the Adolfo Suárez-Barajas airport.
Flight SVA 226 was due to take off at 10.54hrs this morning (Thursday).
Some passengers had already boarded, but have been evacuated and moved to an airport lounge.
At first, the alert was said to be general, but it was later specified as affecting the Saudi Arabia flight.
The alarm was raised by the captain of the plane, but the exact reason for the alert is not known.
It could relate to anything from a bomb through to a breakdown in the landing system, but those close to the scene believe it to be the former.
But it is hoped to be just a hoax, since terrorist cells such as DAESH and Al-Qaeda do not normally give warnings.
Interior ministry sources say the TEDAX explosives deactivation squad has been drafted in.
The rest of Madrid airport is running normally.
