Casa Bella was a quiet, relaxing condo that we really enjoyed after a busy day out and about. It was only about 10 minutes to the beach by car. The rainforest was only a few miles away and Old San Juan was about 30 minutes by car. The highway was just down the road, but it was very quiet, no car noises. We were able to cook whatever meals we wanted which was great. In the morning we could see the iguanas in the trees and enjoy a view of the water from the balcony. In the evening we would go up on the roof and watch the stars. The condo was very clean and new looking. The only thing that we would have liked is to be able to walk to a beach. I would recommend this property. Our experience was very positive .
Condo is well equipped with all you need for a great stay. Many great places to eat within a 10 mile area. You can't beat the view from the back porch. A car is a must!!!!!
*****+ plan to come back in a couple of months.
We stayed at this property y on a very short noticie . The place is in private area but with security. The view was amazing on the terrace. The home was tastefully furnished and very clean. There owner had the place stocked with even little extras. I could have lived her long term. Great place. Would definitely stay again
We had 3 couples and enjoyed the condo very much. The location was great, but away from the masses. Well equipped and decorated. The managers and owner were helpful. It needed a little paint where there had been a leak, but a good value. Would definitely stay there again
The condo was beautiful! Each room was tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable. The kitchen had a lot of amenities and so it was easy to eat some meals there. The location was so good! From the condo we easily visited the lovely rain forest of El Yunque and the beaches of Loquillo. We also easily got on a boat the Culebra out of Fiardo, which was a 30 minute drive. The two outdoor areas are beautiful as well so we spent a lovely and relaxing whole day just at the condo. I'd highly recommend the condo. Thanks Maria!
No matter if you're looking for relaxation or action, you'll find that Casa Bella Vista is hidden enough to feel like you're away, but still right in the middle of everything!

Canada joined allies across the world Tuesday in expelling Syrian diplomats, as the slaughter of the innocent in Houla provoked a broad severing of global ties with the pariah Assad regime in Damascus.
Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird said Canada was expelling Syrian diplomats in the wake of the weekend massacre in Houla. The United Nations said 108 people died in the massacre, including 49 children and 34 women — one of the deadliest events in the 15-month uprising against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's regime.
Canada took part in a co-ordinated diplomatic offensive along with the United States, Britain, Canada, Australia, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Bulgaria and the Netherlands as the UN revealed more gruesome details of the events in Houla: the massacre included the close-range shootings of scores of children and parents in their homes.
The report did not specify who carried out most of the killings.
In Ottawa, a small but noisy crowd began to gather outside the Syrian embassy as several RCMP officers stood guard on the sidewalk.
Halah al-Horani, a high school English teacher in Damascus until she emigrated to Canada four years ago, was initially numbed by the violence in Houla before she came out to add her voice to Tuesday's dissent.
"I spent two days not speaking," said Ms. al-Horani, 53. "All the time, I was imagining how those children were feeling when they were watching their friends, other families, getting slaughtered by those monstrous people."
Raed Arab, 46, said the diplomatic expulsion was long overdue.
"We asked for this a long time ago. But it took more lives for the Canadian government to take action. We thank the government for taking this action," said Arab, a Palestinian-Canadian, whose mother is Syrian.
"This regime is a Mafia," he added. "The latest killing just shows just how murderous this regime is. And how brutal they are."
Mr. Baird said all remaining diplomats in Ottawa and their families have five days to leave Canada. As is the case in several other countries, Syria's ranking diplomat is a charge d'affairs, not an ambassador.
As well, another Syrian diplomat waiting to come to Canada will be refused entry.
Mr. Baird said Canadians, like other people around the world, were horrified to learn on the weekend about the massacre, including nearly three dozen children under the age of 10.
"Canada and our partners are speaking loudly, with one voice, in saying these Syrian representatives are not welcome in our countries while their masters in Damascus continue to perpetrate their heinous and murderous acts," Mr. Baird said.
"The ongoing violence must stop immediately, and the Syrian people must be free to realize for themselves a better, brighter future. Canada remains committed to working with the international community to find solutions to this crisis."
Defence Minister Peter MacKay wouldn't speculate on whether the Security Council would ever be able to act in unanimity, in the face of veto-wielding members China and Russia.
"China and Russia in particular have been very reticent to agree to a Security Council resolution, at least one that would mirror similar efforts to try to bring to an end the violence. But we continue to push along with our partners," MacKay said Tuesday.
Meanwhile, British officials say the U.K. is expelling three Syrian diplomats in protest at the killing of civilians.
Syria's charge d'affaires, Ghassan Dalla, the country's top ranking diplomat in London, is among those being expelled.
French President Francois Hollande told reporters Tuesday that Ambassador Lamia Shakkour will be notified "today or tomorrow" that she must leave.
Mr. Hollande said that after high-level discussions with British Prime Minister David Cameron and UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, it had been decided to deploy "a certain number of ... pressure tactics," against Syria, including the expulsion of the ambassador.
Mr. Hollande said Tuesday that Paris will host a meeting in early July of the so-called Friends of Syria seeking a diplomatic solution to the conflict.
Britain said further sanctions would be considered against Syria, but there was no prospect of any more intervention.
Mr. Hague signalled that Russia — a supporter of Syria — would face more pressure following Tuesday's action.
"We will continue to discuss this with Russia. Russia has particular leverage on the regime and therefore has a particular role in this crisis."
Mr. Hague said the situation in Syria is more complicated than the events in Libya last year, when the UN Security Council approved air strikes that ultimately contributed to the ouster of dictator Moammar Gadhafi's regime.

Since late March, the projected cost of Mississippi Power Co.'s Kemper County coal plant has gone from $2.4 billion to $2.8 billion.
The latest figure is the cap the Mississippi Public Service Commission imposed on the project.
David Newell, president of the Central Mississippi Building and Construction Trades Council, said he isn't surprised. In an interview last week, Newell said the cost overruns should have been expected, given who the contractors were.
"We made these predictions when (MPC) decided to bring in Yates and KBR. A lot of the projects they work on end up with huge overruns and poor-quality work."
Yates Construction has its headquarters in Philadelphia, with offices around the state. KBR is based in Houston, Texas, and owns a portion of the technology the Kemper facility will use to turn a fuel mixture that includes lignite coal into electricity.
"I understand why the job has gone the way it has," said Newell, who operates out of Vicksburg. "A lot of the fabrication didn't work, as far as piping, setting it, it's been a bad deal all around. I don't know if that's poor planning, poor engineering, but they've had some labor unrest from Day One. It's been terrible."
Spokespeople from each company disputed Newell's assertion. Yates spokesperson Kenny Bush called Newell's claims "ridiculous."
"We've been in business for 50 years because we have a lot of pleased owners out there," Bush said. "We would not have been as successful as we've been if we had a history of doing things like that. We've done $30 million worth of work on Kemper. So for anyone to think that we've been responsible for the cost overruns is ridiculous."
Marianne Gooch, a KBR spokesperson, and Bush both disputed reports that surfaced in the first week of August that Atlanta-based Southern Co. — MPC's parent — had fired the two companies from the Kemper project.
Bush said Yates has four contracts with the coal plant , three exclusively under the Yates flag and one that was a joint venture with KBR. The joint venture contract was modified to bring in Baton Rouge-based Performance Contractors. The other three remain in place, Bush said.
KBR, as part-owner of the technology the plant will use, will still provide engineering and start-up services as the plant moves closer to commercial operation, scheduled for May 2014.
"The truth is we were almost done (with the contracting part) anyway," Gooch said. "If Southern Co. really believed that we did poor-quality work, it would spill over into other elements, and that's just not the case. The idea that we were fired from the project because we didn't perform to a certain level could not be farther from the truth. Southern Co. has indicated to us that they are very pleased with our work. Even in private meetings they've indicated that. Proof of that is that we're still active on the project."
KBR employees will have the opportunity to catch on with Performance, Gooch said.
Newell said Performance started a round of interviews with those employees Aug. 8 at a satellite office in Meridian, a few miles south of the job site. Newell said he intended to visit that office late last week to assess that process.
Newell also claims that Southern Co. reneged on a labor agreement established with Newell's Council.
Newell said while the Kemper project was still winding its way through the PSC-approval process, his organization reached a deal with Southern Co. that the utility would use workers who were either Council members, Mississippi residents or both, if it would throw its support behind the coal plant.
The Council agreed to those terms, Newell said, and spent $50,000 renovating and repairing an old school building near the job site that it would use to train workers, signing a five-year lease in the process. The Council, Newell added, provided the names of 9,000 workers who could potentially work on the project.
"We jumped through every hurdle they asked us to as far as putting together a project-labor agreement," Newell said. "And when it came down to it, we haven't received anything. No reason why, we just got the door slammed in our face." Based upon his trips to the Kemper site, Newell estimated that "about 80 percent" of worker vehicles carried out-of-state tags.
In an Aug. 9 press release, MPC CEO Ed Day said of the 2,000 workers at the Kemper site, more than half were from Mississippi. Overall, Day said, more than 250 Mississippi companies are involved in the project, with Yates being the largest state-based contractor.
Newell said he's hopeful Southern Co. will agree to use some of the workers on the Council's list when it comes time to award the plant's last major contract, which deals with the delivery of the coal from the nearby mine to the plant.
A phone message left with Southern Co.'s media relations office was not returned by the Mississippi Business Journal's press time last week.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Beautiful cards. I got them printed on the shimmer paper and put them into laser cut envelopes I got from another source. So elegant and clean. Staff is AMAZING. Very kind and attentive, everytime I called them, they were very helpful and patient. My invitations arrived 1 week before scheduled delivery. Fast service! For canadian customers, please remember you will be charged the current exchange rate and duties via UPS (a few little surprises I forgot about when paying)!"
"We LOVED these wedding invites from the second we saw them and got tons of positive feedback! I love the subtle color variations in the leaf designs (we used the green option - we were having an outdoor summer wedding) and think the font colors complimented it nicely. The only change we made was to put the phrase "reception to follow"and the "and" between our names into Willa Bold font rather than the script font. We were sent proofs promptly, and the designer listened to our suggestions. Overall, the printing quality was excellent, the invites arrived in a timely manner and just as advertised, and the paper was fantastic. What helped most was that we ordered sample invitations from WPD (8 for free) and they send you a super helpful paper stock sample guide. I would highly recommend doing this, because it shows you exactly what you're going to get! Overall, we were super happy with the invitations!"
"I ordered these in the color "aloe". They look so beautiful in person! They have a pearl finish, which you can't see on the computer, but it adds such an extra element of class. I redesigned the back of the RSVP cards so that they were largely the aloe color instead of so much black, and they made the changes for me quickly and so beautifully! Very easy process, with a stunning end result."
"The paper (standard that they use) was a great quality, as always with their products. The colors were soft and delicate like I wanted. We aren't having a formal event, so these work great for the laid back feel we wanted."
"We were very satisfied with how quick and easy we had our personalized beautiful invitations! The process could not be an easier and we got exactly what we expected when we expected!! Great Job Wedding Paper Divas and crew!!"

We are releasing a theme which uses a plugin that is for sale on CodeCanyon and have purchased the extended license. According the plugin author and my interpretation of the extended license, we need to incorporate the plugin into our theme in order to follow the licensing terms… but, when we submitted the file for review it was rejected with a note saying we shouldn't include plugins directly in our theme and should keep them separate.
So, which is it? I would rather keep the plugin separate if that still follows the licensing terms.
That's a strange situation. You should keep the plugin separate of course, but on the other hand you are right about the licensing terms. I request a staff reply to your post – it would be good to hear a official answer.
Yeah, it's not very clear. I had requested a staff reply as well.
You can include the plugin if you have made deal with the codecayan author. However you should not modify the theme files and merge them in your theme code because that way the theme users won't be able to update that plugin. So you can for example create a folder in your theme package and include the external plugins in that folder and in the theme documentation you can explain how to install the plugin.
I would prefer to keep the plugin as an external plugin and I would use the TGM plugin activator for easy installation.
Either way, though, the users would not be able to update the plugin themselves without the update being included in the theme (as an external plugin or otherwise) since they would not have access to the plugin directly to receive updates.
I'm still waiting for a staff reply on this… I know the same plugin has been used in a few other themes and the plugin author seemed pretty confident in saying the plugin needs to be included in the them.
Sometimes embedding a plugin in a theme is the right move. For example, a theme I created uses a plugin that provides functionality I didn't want to code myself and couldn't really find done anywhere else either. So I forked a copy, updated it for Wordpress and embedded it in my theme. I control the updates and when I need to bring it up to scratch, I'll issue a theme update with the updated plugin.

Ok, so my concept is, that Yaga is a witch, that flies on broom. She have green old skin, long nose, grey clothes and old, dirty hat; like classic cartoon witch. She's ranged AP caster. Let me introduce her skills:
[Passive] Over the heads - Yaga ignores unit collision. Moving through any units grant her bonus 3% move speed that stacks 5 times. Every time she passes unit, timer is refreshed. Stacks last for 3.5 seconds. One unit can grant only 1 stack until all are removed.
Well, good passive that let's you easily run from lane through your minions or you can use this to catch enemy instead.
[Q Skill] Defacing Charm - Yaga cast charm on enemy, causing him to take 65/110/155/200/245 (+0.6 AP) magic damage, blinding him and causing Grievous Wounds (50% healing reduction) for 1.5 seconds.
- Mana cost: 80/90/100/110/120 Mana
- Cooldown: 11/9.5/8/6.5/5 seconds
- Range: 550
This spell doesn't "fly" to enemy, it deals damage and it's effects instantly. Great skill to disable fighter like Sion.
[W Skill] Dispel - Yaga removes any crowd control effects from allied champion.
- Mana cost: 100 Mana
- Cooldown: 30/28/26/24/22 seconds
- Range: 450
Another instant spell. Really great support skill, can save life.
[E Skill] Stunning Dash - Yaga rapidly charges in straight line with her broom up to 500 range. First enemy she encounter takes 20/50/80/110/140 (+ 1.0 attack damage) (+ 0.6 ablity power) magic damage and get stunned for 1 seconds.
- Mana cost: 90 mana
- Cooldown: 13 seconds
- Range: 500
Great skill to catch enemy or just to run, because she can pass walls with her dash.
[R Skill] Elixir of Love - Yaga throws her elixir, that explodes, dealing 80/160/240 (+0.6 ablity power) magic damage and taunting all affected units for 0.5/1/1.5 seconds. Yaga can store maximum 3 elixirs. Each elixir is stored every 30/25/20 seconds.
- Mana cost: 100 mana
- Cooldown: 5 seconds
- Range to Center of AoE: 550
- Range of AoE: 200
Inspired by Ahri and her taunt. This skill have same effect (and animation with these hearts) but it's AoE and doesn't slow. Helpful to break gank.
Yaga is really great caster: combining her blind with taunt completly disables any fighter. She haven't got any slow, so buying Hextech Gunblade is good choose for her (AD ratio from dash). Additionally she can carry whole game with her dispel, blind and stun.
Waiting for your opinions! Thanks ;)
Ferrey 13:02, July 6, 2012 (UTC)
1st Edit: Changed her skills damage. Ferrey 20:58, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

Norman Smith, a business consultant from Kent, has rejected an offer of pounds 100 from Save & Prosper after S&P admitted inefficiency in paying out the pounds 13,000 proceeds of a unit-linked life insurance savings policy.
The policy matured on 15 May and S&P gave Mr Smith the option of opening a bank account with a sister company, Robert Fleming, to accept the proceeds. There was a mix-up over the opening of the account, which meant that Mr Smith was unable to gain access to his money for more than a month after the policy matured. There was also a dispute over whether one month's premium had been paid.
In trying to sort out the problem, Mr Smith spoke to four different people at S&P and wrote to six others. He demanded compensation of pounds 450, arguing that the time spent communicating with S&P had eaten into his working hours and that the inability to gain access to his money could have presented financial problems for him and his business.
Mr Smith later reduced his demand to pounds 250 but S&P is sticking to its offer of a pounds 100 ex gratia payment.
Mr Smith has now taken his claim to the Insurance Ombudsman.
A spokeswoman for the legal advice department of the Consumers' Association points out that the law only allows compensation for inconvenience in certain circumstances. Even then, a strong case has to be made out and the complainant cannot bank on receiving a large amount. 'Our members frequently say they want to claim for inconvenience, and although we usually recommend that they do so, we advise that it is hard to prove,' she said.
Holidays are an exception. You can claim quite easily for inconvenience and loss of enjoyment if a holiday does not fulfil its advertised promises. But do not expect to get rich on the pickings.
'If a holiday company advertised that the hotel had a swimming pool and was 10 minutes from the beach, and when you get there you discover that the walk to the beach takes 20 minutes but that the pool is still available, the availability of the pool would be taken into account by a court when deciding how much you had suffered.'
In other types of claims, the best you can usually hope for is out-of-pocket expenses such as postage and the cost of telephone calls. People claiming for time lost from work would have to detail actual financial loss. 'An example would be someone who usually saw 10 clients an hour and could only see six because of the problem he was sorting out,' said the Consumers' Association spokeswoman.
The various ombudsmen who deal with consumer problems take different views on compensation, depending on their terms of reference.
Chris Hamer, manager of the Insurance Ombudsman Bureau, said that while there is scope for discretion, the Insurance Ombudsman had yet to order compensation for someone who had lost working time.
Chris Eadie, Deputy Banking Ombudsman, said: 'The law does not generally provide for compensation for inconvenience, but our terms of reference allow for it.'
Where the office decided to order compensation for inconvenience, the amount was usually set at between pounds 5 and pounds 10 an hour.
He added: 'We do get cases where people argue that because their bank charges pounds 25 for a letter, they should be able to claim that back for each letter they have written to the bank. We do not go along with this.'
At the office of the Building Societies Ombudsman, Stephen Edell said: 'We get cases where people say they are an accountant or something similar and charge pounds 150 an hour, and that is what they want. Here we follow the same procedure as the courts.
'If a complainant had not suffered a financial loss as a result of bringing his case to court, he would be compensated for the time and trouble taken, up to a maximum of pounds 8 an hour.'
A complainant may be able to prove financial loss to livelihood, but Mr Edell agrees with the Consumers' Association that this is not easy. 'If you were unable to see a client one day because of the problem but saw him the next day, that would not be a loss.'

Ah, the wonders of the public domain! After Ergonis Software created a version of our public domain TidBITS AutoCorrect Dictionary for Typinator 2.0 (see "TidBITS AutoCorrect Dictionary Enhances Typinator," 2007-08-27), Greg Scown of SmileOnMyMac contacted me to verify that it was indeed in the public domain so they could distribute it for TextExpander. I told him it was, and less than a week later, SmileOnMyMac posted a version of the dictionary for TextExpander. And, since Riccardo Ettore's TypeIt4Me and TextExpander can import each other's files, TypeIt4Me users can also download and use the TextExpander version (for more about TypeIt4Me, see "TypeIt4Me Returns Again, Again," 2006-08-07). Thanks to the SmileOnMyMac folks for making this happen, and thanks to Micah Alpern for much of the original word list.

text: She's been in awe of superstar Shahrukh Khan since she was nine, but now she's scared to even utter his name. Yes, thats what actress Priyanka Chopras good friend thinks. PC might have now realised that she is no longer a kid of nine. She is now a part of the glamour world, where she has turned out to be the hottest target of media and the star wives.Priyanka who used to once blush at the very sight of Khan, today has a different version about her childhood crush. Priyanka who had assembled along with Shahid at a suburban multiplex to unveil the first trailer of Teri Meri Kahaani, made a shocking comment on SRK. On a query about Shahrukh by a leading website, PC played safe and said, Sharukh Khan doesnt make me blush. I dont remember saying any of that.Oops Piggy, are you so forgetful? If we recall Priyanka-Shahids episode at Koffee with Karan, the actresss blushing gestures on taking SRKs name raised many eyebrows. Possibly PCs blushing episode added fuel to the fire that finally hit Shahrukh-Gauris happy paradise.

Welcome to new faculty Amanda Agan and Yuan Liao and new department chair Tom Prusa! Read more . . .
The department happily welcomes Amanda Agan, who received her PhD in economics from the University of Chicago in 2013. She has been working as a post-doctoral researcher in the economics department and the Industrial Relations Section at Princeton University and is excited to be joining the economics faculty at Rutgers University.
She studies the economics of crime and labor economics. Her research has focused on analyzing the unintended consequences of policies such as sex offender registration and ban-the-box laws. She has published studies in the Journal of Law and Economics and the Journal of Empirical and Legal Studies. Amanda Agan's recent research on ban-the-box policies has been featured on NPR's Morning Edition and in the Chicago Tribune. Ban-the-box policies prevent employers for asking about criminal histories on job applications or in the first interview. These policies are meant to help people with records get their foot in the door with employers, and advocates also hoped they could decrease racial inequality in employment because minorities are more likely to have criminal records. However, the economic theory of statistical discrimination suggests that when you take away information about criminal history, hiring managers may use other observable characteristics like race to infer whether someone has a record. Therefore, minority applicants without records could actually be harmed by the policy.
In this research, Agan and her co-author, Sonja Starr, a professor at the University of Michigan Law School, tested these competing potential consequences of ban-the-box policies via a field a experiment. They sent thousands of online job applications on behalf of fictitious applicants both before and after ban-the-box laws went into effect in NJ and NYC. On these applications they randomly varied whether the applicant was black or white and and whether the applicant had a felony conviction, but kept everything else about the applicant extremely similar. They find that after ban-the-box goes into effect, the race gap in employer callbacks to applicants increases - before ban-the-box, white applicants to ban-the-box-affected employers received about 7% more callbacks than similar black applicants, but ban-the-box increases this gap to 45%. This suggests that these policies have the unintended consequence of increasing racial discrimination.
The department is delighted to welcome Yuan Liao as an associate professor. Dr. Liao received his Ph.D. in Statistics from Northwestern University in 2010. Before joining Rutgers, Dr. Liao held a position as assistant professor of statistics at University of Maryland (2012-2016), and worked at Princeton University as a postdoctoral associate (2010-2012).
Dr. Liao works at the intersection of financial econometrics and statistics. His research bridges a number of important areas of study: big data theory, and sophisticated computer algorithms. The starting point for his research is the fact that financial studies often face data-rich environments. A typical financial data set contains several thousand assets, which brings great challenges to data analysis. Analyzing portfolios of smaller size in the conventional way can no longer capture the movement of the entire market. Dr. Liao has introduced a new data-driven technique that can help detect the mis-priced assets. Using this technique, researchers on financial markets can identify the mis-priced stocks out of a large number of assets. In addition, he developed new quantitative tools to assess the risks from investigating financial portfolios of very large sizes.
Dr. Liao has also developed new econometric models for forecasting the risk premia of U.S. government bonds. Economists have long realized that the risk premia of U.S. government bonds can be forecasted using several macroeconomic characteristics. In a forthcoming paper titled "Robust factor models with explanatory proxies", Dr. Liao finds that these macroeconomic characteristics have strong explanatory power of the "diffusion index", the latter represents a few economic factors that are known to have predictive power on the U.S. government bonds. By incorporating the explanatory power of the macroeconomic characteristics, Dr. Liao shows that one can achieve a more accurate estimate of the diffusion index, resulting in a significant improvement on the forecast accuracy.
Yuan's research has appeared in numerous journals and books including Econometrica, Journal of Econometrics, Annals of Statistics, and The Oxford Handbook of Panel Data. He has given talks in conferences and seminars to the Research Section of the British Royal Statistical Association, Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Obserwolfach, the Stevanovich Center at University of Chicago, Boston University, MIT, Georgetown, and many others.
The department welcomes the election of Thomas Prusa as chair of the economics department in the spring of 2016. Prior to moving to Rutgers University in 1995, he was a professor at the State University of New York, Stony Brook. He is a Research Associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research, Cambridge, Massachusetts. He received his PhD from Stanford University in 1988.
He has published numerous articles in leading journals and books and has received "best article of the year" by Economic Inquiry and Review of International Economics. He has lectured in conferences and seminars to the World Trade Organization, European Union, the World Bank, the Federal Reserve, the World Trade Institute, the CATO Institute, the American Enterprise Institute, United Nations Stanford University, Princeton University, New York University and many others. His research has been featured in The New York Times, The Economist, and Investor's Business Daily.
He received the Rutgers University FAS Award for Distinguished Contributions to Undergraduate Education in 2001 and the Rutgers University Warren I. Susman Award for Excellence in Teaching in 2016. In Fall 2015 he was recognized by the Rutgers University Academic Athletics Oversight Committee for his contributions to the university. While at Stony Brook he was recognized for outstanding contributions to undergraduate education in 1993 and awarded mentor of the year in 1992. He has provided expert testimony before the U.S. International Trade Commission on many occasions.

Home health giant Amedisys Inc.'s shares plummeted more than 23 percent Tuesday after the company reported a $574.1 million write-down of assets and the departure of its chief operating officer.
Amedisys, which operates with 600 employees from its headquarters on South Sherwood Forest Boulevard and has more than 16,000 employees nationwide with more than 500 home health and hospice agencies in 45 states, cited its crumbling market capitalization, disappointing third-quarter financial results and recent forecasts in taking the $574.1 million, non-cash, goodwill charge.
That resulted in the company posting a $423.7 million loss for the quarter, or $14.73 per share.
Excluding the charge, Amedisys' third-quarter earnings would have been $10.6 million, or 36 cents per share, nearly 60 percent lower than the $25.5 million, or 89 cents per share, recorded a year ago. The results also fell short of the 50-cents-per-share forecast by stock analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters.
Amedisys shares closed Tuesday at $10.06, down $3.07, or 23.4 percent. It was the stock's lowest price in seven years.
The company's seven-year streak of record earnings ended in 2010, after a Wall Street Journal analysis raised questions about publicly traded home health companies' billing practices. Since then, the company's stock has slipped from $60 a share to its current level.
Amedisys said it also plans to close, consolidate or sell 50 of its care centers due to disappointing performance and looming cuts in federal Medicare reimbursements.
However, Brian Tanquilut, stock analyst at Jefferies and Co., said the big news was Chief Operating Officer Michael Snow's abrupt departure.
"He was known as a really clean guy. He brought a lot of street cred to Amedisys, the street being Wall Street," Tanquilut said.
Snow had established his credentials through an excellent portfolio of work in the health-care industry, including stints at HCA Inc. and HealthSouth Corp., Tanquilut said. Now that Snow is gone, the question of "management integrity" is again popping up in investors' minds.
Before the appointment of CFO Dale Redman five years ago, Amedisys inability to keep a chief financial officer for any length of time made investors uncertain about the company's stability, Tanquilut said. Tuesday's management shakeup announcement was a reminder of those earlier problems, he said.
Amedisys said Redman will move to executive vice president and treasurer Jan. 1 in anticipation of his retirement during the first quarter.
Ronald LaBorde, Amedisys' lead board member, became company president effective Tuesday and will take Redman's place as CFO on Jan. 1.
Tanquilut said he was not familiar with LaBorde's background.
"He's the CEO of an HR consulting company, but I don't know if he necessarily has the skill set to be the CFO of the nation's largest home nursing provider," Tanquilut said.
LaBorde's experience includes serving as chief executive of Piccadilly Cafeterias Inc. from 1995 to 2003. LaBorde resigned five months before the cafeteria chain sought bankruptcy protection and was sold to a Los Angeles-based partnership.
For now, Amedisys' stock remains a "show-me story," Tanquilut said. Even though the stock is cheap, there's no rush to buy it because there are too many unknowns.
On the plus side, the company doesn't have a lot of debt, he said. But Amedisys' management team, including Chief Executive Officer William Borne, will have to prove itself to investors before anyone meaningful buys the stock.
Borne founded the company locally in 1982 and took the company public in 1993 as an over-the-counter-stock.
Jefferies doesn't do investment banking business with Amedisys or own its stock, Tanquilut said.
In a news release, Borne said Amedisys was lowering its 2012 guidance after the lower-than-expected third-quarter results.
The non-cash impairment charge applies to Amedisys' goodwill, or intangible assets. Those assets can include a strong brand name, good customer relations, good employee relations and patents or proprietary technology.
Amedisys lowered its overall 2011 earnings projections to between $1.90 and $2 per share, with revenue of $1.475 billion to $1.50 billion. Analysts had forecast earnings of $2.39 per share on revenue of $1.48 billion. In August, Amedisys lowered its 2011 guidance to between $2.20 and $2.40 per share from the range of $3-$3.30 per share.
Borne also said the company made a number of strategic decisions aimed at realigning the company to better address performance and position the company for future success.
Sheryl Skolnick, managing director of CRT Capital Group LLC, said the write-down amounted to 41 percent of the company's book value, or shareholders' equity, in Amedisys, but the write-off might not be large enough.
More write-offs may be coming because the Medicare payment environment is getting worse, Skolnick said.
The vast majority of Amedisys' patients are covered by Medicare. On Monday, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services announced that home health payments would be cut by 2.3 percent overall in 2012.
Despite Tuesday's stock plunge, which brought shares to little more than a quarter of their February levels, Skolnick said Amedisys' stock remains overvalued.
"I have an $8 target price on it. I think that might be generous," she said. "This is a business in disarray at the least … I think with more reimbursement cuts coming down the pike, it is going to get a whole lot worse before it gets better."

Paying Attention to Your Body
| We all want to have fun. We want to work hard and play hard, and we want to go all out.
It's important, though, when playing sports or exercising, to pay attention to the feedback our body is giving us. If we ignore these friendly messages, some not-so-pleasant things might happen. And, when things go wrong physically, there might be significant recovery time involved.
Paying attention can save a lot of downtime.
Important warning signs include feeling faint, experiencing shortness of breath, and even intense muscle pain and soreness. Any of these signals mean you're doing too much, working too hard, or working beyond your current physical capacity.
Back off a little. Slow down. Say that's enough for the day and be able to go out there again tomorrow.
Your chiropractor can help you design fun and challenging exercise routines. He or she is able to recommend sports, stretches, and activities that match-up with your interests and plans. The goal, as always, is to be healthy, active, and well.

Corbin Fisher has been wanting to get these two lean-muscled studs together for a while now and Aaron and Dru could barely wait for the camera to start rolling. They were excited to get naked and start playing. Corbin Fisher has good instincts, he knew these two guys would be hot together and man were they ever!
Dru can't keep his tongue off Aaron and licks the hot stud's chest, nipples, and arms. They kiss as they unzip their jeans and strip out of their clothes. When Aaron's cock is released from his underwear he looks at Dru and says, "Suck it!"
Dru swallows Aaron's long, hard cock and smacks his ass playfully. The guys fall onto the bed in a passionate kissing session and Aaron grinds his stiff cock against Dru's. "Oh my God, I want you so bad," Dru says pleadingly. So Aaron goes down on his buddy and starts working Dru's tight ass with his fingers. And after a wet rimjob, Dru says, "Don't tease me anymore. I want you to fuck me!" But Aaron continues the tease, sliding his dick slowly up and down Dru's ass crack. He's going to make Dru beg for it.
Finally Dru gets what he wants and he moans and whimpers in ecstasy. "Oh fuck! Your hole is so hot!" Aaron says. He starts pounding Dru's ass hard. And then he flips his buddy onto his back so they can look into one another's' eyes as Aaron continues pumping Dru's fuck hole.
Dru's loving Aaron's cock drilling his hole, but it's all too much for him and he shoots his load all over his stomach. Then he tells Aaron that he wants Aaron to cum in his mouth. Aaron blows his load all over Dru's hungry lips and Dru sucks Aaron's dick to get every lasts drop. Guys, this one's going down in the history books as one of the hottest Corbin Fisher fucks!

Love this shot. And such a cuttie
perfect timing for this shot...
Best. Cat. Ever.
Lol, cute!
The many thoughts she might be contemplating could range from philosophical (what awaits us beyond this world) to trivial (how come my owner never brings home goldfish as pets anymore). Either way, she looks cute pondering the many questions of life. ^_^ Fantastic photo.
To purr or not to purr*
Meme please!
Lol i've seen my cat do this. I call her "genius cat" when she does.
Come on!!! awesomeness!!!
This has to be a meme ^^
and thus, a meme was born
"To destroy the sofa or Not to destroy the sofa?"
Amazing. I love that pose
lol this shuld be turned into a meme
Awww!! Such a beautiful cat!!
Have you ever seen a cat sit on all four of their paws with their tail around them? I think it's interesting to see, though I'm not sure what it means. All I can think to call such a pose is a 'cat nest'... Or perhaps a form of cat protest... Or something like that. Cats are interesting.
perfect capture!
Someone needs to make a meme of this!
awww so cute! is she up for adoption?! i hope she can find a new home asap, because she deserves! adorable!
she could have been a model for RODIN!!!!!...nice pict!
Looking very thoughtful there...
OK, a little bit of Shakespeare. And a bit of Einstein:
E = mc -square. Very nice!
E = mc -square. Very nice!
hihihi. Very nice shot!!
Searching for a new home...are you sure? If you ask me she's conjuring up a plan for world domination.
I do hope she ends up well.
I do hope she ends up well.
Inquisitive cat is inquisitive.
A cat with a muse...quaint pic!
"Hmmm...should I have tuna or salmon today? Decisions, decisions."
Trudy certainly is intellectual.
Hmm, so who should I eat? The bird? Maybe the goldfish instead, or the hamster? Indeed the hamster is delicious looking.

Back to SchoolClose
For Parents
Common Sense Note
Parents need to know that Back to School is a 1986 comedy starring Rodney Dangerfield as a successful businessman who decides to attend the college his son attends to finally get his degree. There is brief nudity (bare breasts), frequent profanity (including "f--k" and "p---y"), and plentiful sexual innuendos in Dangerfield's frequent and hilarious quips. In one scene, a history professor refers to Asians as "rice eaters," and, in another scene, Dangerfield makes a joke involving homosexual rape. As an '80s college movie, there are the requisite scenes of blowout parties with binge drinking. Still, for teens and those older, Back to School is a classic of its genre -- a movie in which Dangerfield's pitch-perfect one-liners shine in every scene.
- Sexual Content
- Early in the film, the father of a son in college enters a dorm building looking for his son. He inadvertently looks into a shower stall and sees a woman's exposed breasts. This same man's wife is shown in the kitchen of their mansion engaged in foreplay. When his wife wants a divorce, the man shows her a series of Polaroids in which it's strongly implied that she has committed adultery on numerous occasions. Two male college students watch a female student walk by and make a lewd comment about her rear end. In one scene, the main character is shown shirtless from the waist up, moaning and making requests as if he's having sex; the camera pulls back to reveal he's getting a massage from his chauffeur. Overall, there is frequent sexual innuendo and sexual puns throughout the movie.
- Violence
- In one scene, a huge fight breaks out in a bar. Punches are thrown, tables and chairs are broken, and bottles are smashed. There is a joke involving homosexual rape.
- Language
- Frequent profanity: "f--k," "p---y," "goddamn," "bastards." In one scene, a history professor refers to Asians as "rice eaters." In another scene, while a character is admiring a painting by Gustav Klimt, Klimt's last name is turned into a pun to sound like the word "c--t."
- Social Behavior
- In its own way, this comedy shows the importance of hard work in achieving one's goals, as well as the importance of self-reliance in becoming who you want to be.
- Consumerism
- Characters are often seen drinking from cans of Miller Lite beer.
- Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol
- Binge drinking is shown at a wild party. A college student, while trying to explain the party to the main character, is obviously intoxicated as he slurs his speech and eventually vomits on a tree. Characters drink beer at bars and champagne at parties. The chauffeur in the film is shown smoking a cigar.
- Age appropriate
- Not an issue
- Depends on your kid and your family
- Not appropriate for kids of the age most likely to want to see it

Express Employment hosts holiday hiring drive
November 8, 2013
The Express Employment Professionals office in Greeley is hosting a Pay it Forward Hiring Drive to put 100 unemployed people to work next week so they can earn some money for Thanksgiving.
The goal of this drive is to help give encouragement and purpose to as many job seekers as possible by providing them the opportunity to earn a week's worth of pay and help provide for their families during the holidays, according to a news release. The Greeley Express office will donate one turkey to the Weld Food Bank for each job seeker placed.
In Weld, 4,219 turkeys are needed. The Weld Food Bank will provide the remainder of the Thanksgiving Meal to families in need.
By joining Express in this hiring effort, employers will gain a qualified worker and give the gift of employment to an individual who would otherwise not work during the week of Nov. 11-17.
Express associates are screened and evaluated before being placed in short- and long-term assignments in a variety of administrative, professional and commercial positions.
"Pay it Forward to us means working with local businesses to help find jobs for unemployed workers in our community so they can earn a paycheck and help support their families this season," said Tami Inskeep, manager of the Greeley Express office, in the release. "Our vision is to lock arms with businesses in Greeley to bring hope to local families for the holidays."
This program will provide businesses with the additional support often needed during a busy time of the year while helping someone provide for their family.
Companies and individuals interested in participating in the Pay it Forward Hiring Drive can call the Greeley office at (970) 353-8430 for more information.
The Greeley Express Employment Professionals franchise began operation in 1983, and serves the northern Colorado areas with temporary help and direct hire employees in a variety of fields, including administrative, commercial, data processing, technical, sales, marketing and more.
The Greeley office, 2711 10th St., is accepting applications. For more information, go to http://www.expresspros.com.

Infectious : Infectious mono is a viral illness caused by the epstein barr virus (ebv). It is spread primarily through saliva which is why it is also known as the "kissing disease", but can also be spread through sharing eating utensils. Even among people who catch ebv, many are not symptomatic, so special precautions (such as no kissing) are not needed. 95% of adults aged 35-40 have been exposed to it at some point and have immunity to it - at least 50% of them had no symptoms of mono.

Infectious : Infectious mononucleosis is caused by the epstein-barr virus (ebv) which is a member of the human herpes virus family (like chicken pox). Many people exposed to ebv do not develop infectious mononucleosis, but will have mild symptoms or no illness at all. In fact, 85%-90% of adults aged 40 show evidence of ebv infection at some point by having lasting antibodies detected with a blood test. There may be a small subset of folks that don't develop lasting antibodies or may have dormant virus, but this is rare. When we test for ebv, we test for evidence of current infection and of previous infection. You may have tested negative for current infection which is good - you shouldn't have a current infection of ebv if you have had it before. You may or may not have been tested for evidence of previous infection. You may want to speak with your doctor about what tests were done which might clear up any confusion. I hope this helps! ...Read more

The Philippines may have dramatically pivoted away from the U.S. toward China, but you wouldn't know it listening to John Kerry's latest comments:
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Thursday he remained confident about the future of the U.S.-Philippines relationship despite "a difference here or there" and that he hoped to visit Manila again before leaving office.
New Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has thrown Manila's long-standing alliance with Washington into question since taking office in June with a series of insults and threats to cut ties with the former colonial power.
Speaking at a swearing-in ceremony for the new U.S. ambassador to the Philippines, Sung Kim, Kerry called the alliance between the two peoples "indelible." […]
"I am confident about the future of our bilateral relations, notwithstanding a difference here or there about one thing or another," he said.
The Obama administration has apparently adopted a "keep calm and carry on" approach to the Philippines, calculating that Duterte's bluster is a bluff and that the relationship will endure. There are certainly data points to support that view. The U.S. remains the Philippines' top foreign investor, contributing $731 million in 2015, and Duterte has clarified that he has no interest in severing economic ties. Military-to-military ties proceed apace, despite Duterte's threats to scrap bilateral defense cooperation. And Philippine public opinion is overwhelmingly pro-American: a 2015 Pew poll found that 92% of Filipinos have a favorable attitude toward the U.S., while only 54% have a favorable view of China.
Still, Kerry's remarks run the risk of appearing to be out of touch. The administration clearly does not want to provoke Duterte or overreact to his outbursts, but there is a risk in under-reacting as well. The United States is going through something of a credibility crisis in Asia at the moment, as Malaysia and the Philippines lean toward China and the TPP faces an uncertain future.
Across two terms, the big talk about the "pivot to Asia" was not always followed through on. And Obama's pivot has in no small part been hurt by the sequester's budget cuts. The next administration must take the lead in rebuilding the navy, reprioritizing Asia and putting some military muscle behind the pivot's promises.

We were in Savannah for a week and stayed at this SpringHill Suites. The location was great for bumming around the Savannah historic district - we walked everywhere.
The hotel was nice and very quiet, even when there was a large tour and a large group of Girl Scouts. Our room was spacious (king room) and we liked that the toilet was separate from the shower. It was also nice to have the couch / desk area in addition to the bed since we were in our room for more than just sleeping a couple of the mornings.
The room & public areas seemed clean and new. The pool area was OK - in the shade in the afternoon. Couple of the chairs were broken. Good temp for pool and whirlpool.
We had the hotel's breakfast on one day and skipped it the rest of the days. The food didn't look that great, the waffles tasted like plastic / chemical, and there wasn't much for non-carb options (didn't find fruit at all).
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The brand-new SpringHill Suites Savannah Historic District is located in the heart of the Historic District, offering free breakfast and contemporary guest suites. Our Savannah hotel's downtown suites are within walking distance of the Savannah Civic Center, Telfair Museum of Art, City Market, Lady & Son's Restaurant, River Street & Savannah's Visitor Center. For Girl Scouts, we offer the immediate access to the Juliette Gordon Lowe Birthplace, a great way to experience the history of Savannah near our downtown hotel. Our hotel's complimentary features include a hot breakfast, high-speed Internet in all guest rooms and public areas, mini-fridge and microwave in every guest room, on-site concierge services with trolley pick-up & an on-site heated pool and state-of-the-art fitness center. All of our hotel's downtown Savannah, GA guest rooms are 50% larger than average & include an oversized walk-in glass shower, a separate powder room and a 37" flat-screen TV. ... more less

No. It is not the CC that I am having trouble with. It is only with one channel. It is the described video or SAP. As the program is playing, there is a voice describing the action that is taking place. It is annoying, and I would like to turn it off.
And I have gone to the SAP part of my TV menu, and have tried to click on it to turn it off, but can not figure out how to do so.
ah, i see. the other term for SAP is MTS for Multichannel Television Sound, is there an option for this setting?
