13 Years Ago – Boys tennis captures first NSC crown
The Magic boys tennis team entered the spring of 2000 with an empty section its trophy case. That spot belonged to North Suburban Conference Championship trophies. But by the end of the regular season, the Magic would fill this gap. And they would do it with ease.
When Monticello squared off agaainst Totino Grace during the first week of May, they entered a game shy of clinching a share of the conference championship. They left with that mission accomplished. Eddy Hultgren cruised to a win at No. 4 singles, 6-0, 6-1, moving his record to 15-1 on the season to that point. And in doubles, Monticello earned victories with their top two pairs. Adam Briner and David Warner won 6-3, 7-6 (7-3) and Borja Campo and Todd Goudy cruised to a two-set win, 6-3, 6-5.
Still, that left the Magic needing one more victory. Paula Drayna would get it for them. Despite dropping the first set, Drayna battled back with wins of 6-4 and 6-2 to earn the decisive point in the 4-3 Monticello victory.
"He came back big," said Coach Jeff Bordwell. "As a senior, he knows what it means."
With a share of the title already locked up, some pressure was off as the Magic hosted Spring Lake Park later in the week. The Magic played with the confidence of conference champions as they swept through singles on their way to a 5-2 win over their conference foe, and their first-ever North Suburban Conference Championship.
Andreas Ferhm won 6-1, 6-2, Drayna won 6-2, 6-1, Jeff Goudy bounced back from a first-set loss with 6-3, 6-2 wins and Hultgren cruised again, 6-1, 6-0. Todd Goudy and Campo picked up 6-0, 6-2 win for Monticello's final victory of the day.
The Magic would go on to secure two more regular season wins, a 7-0 crushing of St. Michael-Albertville, and a 5-2 win over NSC foe Irondale, to complete their dominant regular season.
20 Years Ago – Magic girls track earns True Team bid
Coach Bob Schneider told his girls track team that heading into the True Team section meet, he figured they had less than a 50 percent chance of winning. They left him rechecking his math.
Monticello scored 525 points at the track meet, finishing 61 points ahead of second-place Fridley in the 11-team field.
The Magic accomplished the feat thanks to a lot of girls reaching new heights, especially in the field events. In high jump, Katie Kolles went 5' and teammate Karla Norris went 4'10", making an event that had been a weakness all season into a strength in the season's biggest meet. In the long jump, Becky Norton continued to push the Magic forward. Her jump of 29'7" was a full foot better than her previous career best.
And while some areas were better than ever, others remained as good as they'd always been. Kolles ran to first-place finishes in both the 1,600-meter (5:29.17) and 3,200-meter (12:15.73) races, while Tina St. Hilaire finished fifth in each race.
The 3,200-meter relay team, consisting of Jen Schmidt, Jessica Jordan, Meghan Lovegren and Kelly Anderson were able to pick up another big win for the Magic, finishing in a time of 10:10.6.
Rounding out the top performers for the Magic were two throwers. Chanteil Walter took second in the shotput and fourth in the discus, while Stacey White reversed those positions, finishing second in the discus and fourth in the shotput.
Monticello would go on to finish in eighth place out of nine teams at the True Team State Meet.
30 Years Ago – Redmen boys win third straight WCC title
In May of 1983, for the fourth time in five years, the Monticello Redmen boys track and field team was crowned champions of the Wright County Conference. Monticello scored 166 points, distancing themselves from St. Michael-Albertville (129) as they earned the victory.
Monticello earned five first place finishes at the meet.
In the pole vault, Chris Oveson set a school and conference record as he cleared 12'7.25" to earn top honors. Tom Johnson meanwhile picked up two victories for the Redmen. His time of 15.6 was good enough for first in the 110 high hurdles, and he continued that success in the 300 intermediate hurdles with a time of 42.2. Teammate Steve Payson was close behind Johnson, finishing third in each hurdle event.
Dave McConnon picked up Monticello's fourth and final individual first, as he stretched out to 19'10.5" in the long jump.
The last team victory came in the medley relay, as Oveson, Chip Bauer, Rich Rowland and Mark Johnson finished first with a time of 3:49.5.
Other top performers for the Redmen included McConnon earning three second place finishes (100 and 200-meter dashes and triple jump, where he set a school record at 41 feet, eight inches), Mark Johnson finishing second in the 800, Tim Juntunen taking second in the shotput and the discus (new school record in shotput of 46'8") and a second-place finish for the 1,600 relay team of Tom Johnson, Mark Johnson, Tom Brion and Payson.

Cryptonite â A Secure and Performant Data Repository on Public Clouds
Cloud storage has become immensely popular for maintaining synchronized copies of files and for sharing documents with collaborators. However, there is heightened concern about the security and privacy of Cloud-hosted data due to the shared infrastructure model and an implicit trust in the service providers. Emerging needs of secure data storage and sharing for domains like Smart Power Grids, which deal with sensitive consumer data, require the persistence and availability of Cloud storage but with client-controlled security and encryption, low key management overhead, and minimal performance costs. Cryptonite is a secure Cloud storage repository that addresses these requirements using a StrongBox model for shared key management.We describe the Cryptonite service and desktop client, discuss performance optimizations, and provide an empirical analysis of the improvements. Our experiments shows that Cryptonite clients achieve a 40% improvement in file upload bandwidth over plaintext storage using the Azure Storage Client API despite the added security benefits, while our file download performance is 5 times faster than the baseline for files greater than 100MB.

Management and risk in financed projects
With a caring and professional approach the project management activity may prove to be difficult enough. Many specialists in this field indicates that a project plan can be assimilated to a "roadmap", so, for a clear destination, the shortest path is of most pronounced efficacy in order to achieve that purpose, to travel the distance between a current state and desired state and all this is established and configured before we hit the road, all risks included, expected or not. In this paper we present a draft European-style management, which intends to conduct a communion of all the decision makers involved in creating a healthier community.

The Sequence blog distributes their second free sampler of ambient experimental music – a longer affair than the first coming in at 43 tracks and includes lesser known artists than the first compilation. Familiar names to readers may be Maps and Diagrams, This Quiet Army, Pascal Savy, Seaworthy, Damien Valles and Zvuka. It is however a collection whose starting point is from emergent artists small labels and net labels working in the ambient experimental area with emphasis on the areas of drone, electronicia and textured noise. Notable variations from this inclination are Felecia Atkinson whose use of voice creates an otherworldly disembodied sense that may enthuse some or just appeal to the technical appreciation. Beautiful Bells 'Panic Attack 2' offers a skittish hip hop beat laden scratch and paste affair with morse code like tonal warblings and severely broken glitch beats. Seaworthy lays in with the gleaming drones of 'a favorite path' which delivers four and a half minutes of high tonal wavering with hints of static and a reverent attitude. Borealis delivers an oddity for the compilation with the beat heavy 'Skyhall', building on choral effects it builds an insistent drum and rim beat which shatters the general calm of the pace within the compilation. Similarly Nils Fram and Anne Muller Cello and piano with electronics style of glitched out composition takes sampology into weird spaces in search of it's beat structure and wild ride with acoustic instruments, field recordings and psyche sounds. Also a treat if the minimal piano track , 'That Distant Morning' by Micheal Oldham which circles a notes rising and falling and surrounds it with a drawn out tones and a melody all anchored to it's center.
It is a long generous collection that covers a good deal of contemporary experimentation in the general field without insisting on a unifying aesthetic. Beat of all it is free to download here.

This is my hand pieced quilt that I call my Mickey Gilley quilt - remember his song, "15 Years Ago"? That's how many years this was my hand piecing project, through the move from Texas to Arkansas and on through all those busy years~finally completed it a few months back and so, after the Fair this year, I started quilting it. I try to work on it at least an hour a day. That's how I have one hand quilted one each year for the Fair, sometimes get a couple small ones done too.
Looks good Carol.
What a great mix of colors. I'm really a coward when it comes to mixing it up, always trying to coordinate. I;m currently working on a Nebraska Windmill, should have it pieced in a couple of weeks and will see if I can send a picture. Computer stupid.
Great work Carol
Great quilt, Carol. Who's the lucky person to receive it once you finish it?
Pat--"Keep Calm and Carry On"
Very pretty Carol! Colors are great together and your hand piecing and quilting as well. Good job!

We had arranged for Nathan and Jordan to attend school with Justin and Brennan, respectively, so the morning was abuzz with children getting ready for school. I went into work at the usual time but, since I had just finished writing the review and was still waiting for results to come back from my latest ultracentrifuge run, I didn't have anything particularly pressing to do. I had expected to put in a fairly light week since Lisa was in town, but I didn't want to push it too much- so I found some "busy work" to do to keep me occupied.
Lisa and Trudy came to campus for lunch and I took them to the top of the Engineering Building. After lunch, the two of them came by my laboratory for a quick tour, as well as to get onto the internet, which had not been working at home lately. I introduced Lisa to Kiyoe, as well as to Anna. After awhile, Lisa and Trudy left again so they could take a walk through the bamboo forest together, as well as do some shopping at the university co-op. I met them near the co-op about 3:15 in order to walk them to the campus bus stop, and, since I could find no reason to continue sitting around the lab pretending to be busy, I accompanied them home on the next bus.
The kids were all home from school by the time the three of us arrived there. The Kerr children had enjoyed the day immensely and wished that they could go back. My kids assured them that the novelty would soon wear off if they did. Both had taken pictures of their day, and we were all treated to a slide show of their experiences. Jordan's perspective on the elementary school was much different from the stories we usually heard from Brennan. She had enjoyed the attention given to her by the students, who had stroked her blond hair and called it "beautiful". Jordan was able to name most of the children in her pictures, something that Brennan had still been unable to do. The thought crossed my mind that Jordan had made more friends at school in one day than Brennan had in 5 months, but I didn't say anything.
The older boys had had fun too, but observed that the Japanese kids tended to act immature as well as to laugh at things that were not funny at all. Both had attended a Health Education lecture on the uterus and Nathan had then been asked to write a reflection on what he had learned and to read it in front of the class. Nathan had written two sentences, where he said that, although he didn't really understand what they were talking about in class, he thought that it was really important for kids to learn about such things. Notwithstanding, the class had been amazed by his oratory skills.
The kids then decided to play songs on Nathan's computer and to have a "dance party". They cleared the furniture out of our living room and danced around for while, but the party started getting more and more rowdy, since the kids were pretty wound up from their day. For dinner, we decided that we would go to Umeda and eat at the other Mexican restaurant that I had discovered online. Just to be sure, I called Los Incas to see if they were open. "I'm sorry, Amigo", the man on the other line said, "but today we are on holiday". It was all very suspicious that the restaurant was never open when we wanted to go by.
Five of us then set out for Umeda- since Brennan didn't really feel like doing a lot of walking, Trudy had agreed to stay behind with him. Before we ate, we stopped at Hep 5 so Lisa and the boys could ride the Ferris Wheel. Jordan, with her fear of heights, decided not to ride, so I took her to Sega World to wait for them. After their ride, Lisa and the boys met us there and played a few games of their own before we walked to dinner. Since it was 7 pm by then, no one under the age of 16 was allowed in Sega World, so Jordan and I waited down one floor for the rest of them to finish, the boys apparently looked close enough to 16 to please the staff.
As we walked past Los Incas, the kids wanted to do a little detective work, since Justin has convinced himself that the restaurant was a front for selling drugs, or some other activity of a ill repute. They insisted that they go up to ask if the restaurant was open, despite the fact that I had called earlier. Although a couple ahead of them was allowed to go in, the kids were turned away at the door, adding to the mystery which surrounded the place and all but confirming their suspicions. We ended up down the block at the other restaurant that I had discovered. It was pretty good, but still not up to our American standards.
After we ate, we walked around Umeda for a while until we ended up at the Sky Building. A huge Christmas tree had been put up between the two towers and the whole area surrounding the buildings had been decorated for Christmas with a Bavarian flair. A sign had read "Welcome to the Night Market" in German, a we approached the grounds. As we turned in our tickets for the Sky Building elevator, the man working there handed each of us a gold star for us to write our wish for 2008 on before hanging them on the Christmas trees which were located in the observatory. I wrote that I wished my sister would remain cancer-free before placing it on one of the trees. Everyone enjoyed the view from the roof of the building, although Jordan was a bit freaked out by the whole experience and didn't stay outside for long.
Our whole crew was very tired as we made our way back to Umeda, and then walked home from Ishibashi after our train ride, but we eventually reached our destination, around 11 pm. We quickly summarized our adventures for Trudy and Brennan before going to bed.

Your horse is a mirror to your soul and sometimes you may not like what you see. Sometimes, you will. So says Buck Brannaman, a gentle spirit and sage on horseback who travels the country for nine gruelling months a year, helping horses with people problems.
Buck follows Brannaman from his abusive childhood to his phenomenally successful approach to horses: a real-life horse-whisperer, he eschews the violence of his upbringing and teaching people to communicate with their horses through leadership and sensitivity, not punishment. Buck possesses near magical abilities as he dramatically transforms horses and people with his understanding, compassion and respect.
A truly inspiring story about an unsung hero, Buck will have audiences laughing through their tears, overcome by the story of how an ordinary man has made an extraordinary life for himself, in spite of tremendous odds.

Comments about Buck:
A compelling documentary that invites you to not only marvel at the wisdom of Buck's theories on how to relate to horses but also fall in love with the man himself, who overcame many issues arising from his own upbringing and translated what he learned into a wonderful system for keeping our equine companions safe and contented.
I was sobbing at the end, not because the story is sad so much as because, amid the doom and gloom we read and hear about daily, it was a wonderful change to see truth and beauty personified in this man and the animals he relates to. An uplifting and joyful experience.

I read all the time in this paper about all of the honest people in Cambridge.Well, to make a long story short, on May 29 I was shopping in Cambridge. I started out at Speedway on East Wheeling putting gas in my car. From there I went to Subway on Clark Street, from there I went to Riesbecks, then home for a few minutes to put things away. From there I went to Jackson Park in Byesville. After Jackson Park, I had to stop at Mor-For-Less. While I was shopping I lost money in an envelope. Also, I lost $20 that was not in the envelope with the other money.Come on, all you honest people, please return this money for I was saving it for my dentures. My insurance does not cover $580, I have to pay this. If you found this money please return it. There will be no questions asked. Please just be honest and return my money.Lisa JacksonCambridge

I have just returned from the show in San Diego. As always, this was a good show. We had a chance to present some of our thoughts on trends in information sharing and collaboration for processes such as sourcing, new product development, marketing, production manufacturing and others. We also had the chance to meet with many, many customers who told us stories about how they are. That is always the best part of these shows. We get lots of questions and also get a chance to learn how our customers are using our tools. Read on to find out what we learned about collaboration, document sharing, interoperability and extending engineering data outside.
Thanks SolidWorks World
So, as I said, I just returned from San Diego with lots of customer conversations fresh in mind. Adobe is in position to help manufacturing firms leverage and solidify (pardon the pun) there processes that rely on PLM. We also had the chance to meet with many, many customers who told us stories about how they are. That is always the best part of these shows. We get lots of questions and also get a chance to learn how our customers are using our tools.
So, What Did We Learn?
Visualization Tools
It is always interesting to speak to customers. One of the frequent questions is how does this compare to (name your favorite 3D visualization tool)? Well, my answer is that our offerings are quite different. Is there overlap? Sure, but that is, to some extent in the visualization space. First, leveraging the free Adobe Reader with all of its significant ability to manage comment and review sessions, forms data collection, and certainly all of the 3D capability like measurement, sectioning, view creation, etc. are big differences. I like to explain that combining 2D and 3D content, "containerizing" both precise data as well as tessellated data and enabling viewing of PMI are other differences with engineering-oriented viewers.
Data Sharing and Collaboration
Lots of our customers are having success sharing their engineering data outside of engineering, which is a form of what I call document-based collaboration. I think saving documents from numerous other file formats is really helping them. We're hearing success stories about marketing materials, manufacturing work instructions, field service, supply-chain integration/data sharing and the request for quotation (RFQ) process. Using digital rights management in conjunction with the PDF format is really gaining momentum with the customers I spoke to… rather than pushing out dead data or trying to have third parties work remotely within various engineering and business systems, Rights Management based revision control and IP protection is really working well.
Lastly, we do get lots of questions about "do you support this format or that"? The answer is almost always yes. (For a complete list of supported formats, go to http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat3d/supportedformats .) "Do I have to replace my authoring tools… for example for technical documents?" "No" is the answer. We're helping make those investments in systems and tools more valuable.
Now it's on to Pacific Design and Manufacturing in Anaheim next week. Well, it's cold here in Michigan, so the sunshine will be great. (Oh yea, I some of Tiger Woods in the Buick Open yesterday… people, 50 degrees is not cold. 17 degrees, outside my window right now is cold.)
See you in CA.

quickposter posted...WTF is he on about? Gearbox, Team Ninja, Ubisoft, Treyarch and many others confirmed Nintendo kept changing the hardware according to their feedback.
What kind of asinine argument are you making here? Have you even bothered to play Skyrim? Please oh wise one that apparently knows all about optimizing game engines, how do you suppose they make something like Skyrim any more efficient and less memory hungry when you can literally walk every inch of the outdoor world without any load screens AND have essentially EVERY object you knock over, pick up, drop down, etc. actually STAY where they are when you go back to them 10 hours later? Granted, the PS3 version was pretty bad BUT the PS3 also had a ridiculously limited memory system in place. It was shocking that they actually were able to get something like Skyrim to run at all on the PS3.
Here's the problem, you know nothing about how the game was designed and you know NOTHING about the scope of a game like Skyrim. All you know is about the critics and gamers complaining about the PS3 version of Skyrim and then just assume that Bethesda was just being lazy. No, Bethesda was actually NOT being lazy, what they WERE doing was being greedy. They forced a game that REALLY should not be running on the PS3 on to the PS3 just to cash in on that large PS3 customer base. It was a bad logistical decision but not really a bad technical flaw. It wasn't being lazy programmers, if anything, Bethesda has put TREMENDOUS amount of work being able to get that game to run on the PS3 hardware at all.
Do you even understand what further innovation in video games involves? It involves MORE of the kinds of games that Skyrim is. MORE games where everything you do in the world is persistent. Where you can play a game like Last of Us and be able to explore ALL the buildings and doors you see in the environment. Where your bullet holes basically all stay in place even 20 hours later traveling a map the size of 4 US states. Guess what? You're going to need the proper hardware to be able to support moving video gaming FORWARD. You think Zelda games are efficiently programmed? They only really appear to be efficiently programmed because they are essentially incredibly linear games, no real persistance system in the game world, etc. Nintendo still design their games much like how they have been designing games since the NES. Nintendo also builds their hardware to first and foremost support THEIR OWN VISION of what video games should be. 3rd party developers want to develop games the way THEY want to develop and design games, they don't want to be boxed into what Nintendo wants them to design.

Emerald_Melios posted...overkillwfo1978 posted...NerdimusPrime posted...Bethesda wanted all consoles to be gaming PC's with controllers, Nintendo didn't agree with that approach. If Sony had went with their plan A ( GPCPU design similar to the Wii U), we wouldn't be having this discussion. Since Nintendo was the only company making a gaming console instead of PC for your TV, they didn't fit into this vision.
Most companies avoiding the Wii U are not doing so because of the hardware. EA is taking a dump on the Wii U because they are still mad that Nintendo Network isn't Origin (crysis 3 was running nicely on Wii U). Bethesda hasn't made a Nintendo game in gods knows how long, so they weren't exactly chomping at the bit to dev for them. Rockstar, same deal and Gearbox shot it's wad with Borderlands 2, essentially gimping Aliens so badly that no one would have wanted to buy it anyways.
Nintendo does things their own way. I personally think it's a good thing for gamers and gaming, you seem to feel otherwise. Perhaps you should get a gaming PC with an HDMI out and controller ports, it sounds like that is what you are wanting. I still enjoy what Nintendo has to offer as they focus more on the gameplay than spectacle. they still get support from companies that see their vision. If you don't agree with how Nintendo does things, there are other options. I, for one, will be sticking with them because I know when it comes to gaming entertainment, they deliver like no other company on the planet.
You only get smarter by playing a smarter opponent.

That's why the only third-party support that matters are compies like Atlus. The big name companies like EA, Square Enix, Bethesda, etc. have generally pissed me off too much.
overkillwfo1978 posted...
Mankind2pointO posted...Nintendo doesn't have to play ball with the 3rd Party Cartel. Sony and MS are beholden to 3rd parties. Every dick movie that MS tried to pull and is trying to pull with Xbox One can be attributed to the 3rd parties. They say "jump," MicroSony say "how high sirs?!" They're pulling the strings. Nintendo retains its autonomy. That's why the 3rd Party Cartel hates Nintendo and pulls support from them, under the most transparent of guises no less. This gen these fools blamed Nintendo 1st party strength and the user base for why their lazy, shovel wear garbage couldn't sell on Wii. With the Wii U, it's something else.
This is when most of HD last gen proved is a group of good developers can produce fewer games(that aren't copy-paste sequels) with less variety and more homogeneity that functioned and recieved worse than their sub-HD previous entries in the same time span.
Best example is how between 1997-2001 Final Fantasy VII, VIII, IX and X were released. Between 2006-2010 Final Fantasy XII and XIII were released, HD development in generation 7 totally worth it right?
"The fact of the matter is that we've been here constantly. We've been betraying peoples expectations, in a good way, for a long time."

It's Greek to me!: Azamara Quest Cruise Review by mlovestennis
Overall Member Rating
It's Greek to me!
Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Embarkation: Other
We had an invitation waiting for us for the Cruise Critic cocktail hour which was held that evening. It was a wonderful experience to meet some of the crew and meet some of the folks who participate on Cruise Critic....we had lovely appetizers and more champagne:) The attendants EVERY where were wonderful...always happy and smiling! Our cruise director,Russ, was a BLAST! And he always called us by name...how nice! Made us feel extra special! And he made ALL the guests feel welcome! We weren't very hungry but decided to still go up to the Windows Cafe for a "snack"...well, we couldn't resist all the yummy food; thank goodness we only had soup and salad and small ice cream! (couldn't resist the ice cream each day...there went my waistline!) We went to the Captain's Welcome Toast...more champagne!
If you are looking for big time entertainment, this is NOT the cruise ship for you. We went for a short time to the cabaret to see the Quest Singers...they were VERY good...but we were tired after a VERY long day of traveling. We had a nice surprise in our room, the bed was turned down and a little "snack" before bed...fresh towels were out in the bath. We slept like babies.
We order room service EVERY day for breakfast...it arrived promptly and was always excellent. This assisted us..we didn't have to rush before we left for our land excursions. If the "kitchen" was running late, we always received a phone call saying when we could expect our meal. We never used room service for any other meal though. Each day we received Pursuits...the daily newsletter..it was excellent and always had information about the island we would be visiting, plus what was happening on the ship.
We purchased the land excursions through the ship...they were VERY well orchestrated. We met in Cabaret Lounge each day, got our "tickets" and then off we went...met our tour guides (who were all excellent, but one), hopped on the bus and a way we went. We took 6 excursions...one too many...we took the Traditional Villages of Kos...WAY too long and we went to a beach...which wasn't mentioned on the description...we were NOT interested in a beach....we live by the ocean in South Carolina...the tour guide was so-so..not very personable. BUT all the other excursions were excellent...when we returned from our excursions, getting back on board was a piece of cake...again, everyone was ALWAYS happy to see us...there was always a "tent" at the gangway with cold water, fresh towels and a fruit drink. Nice touch!
We did eat in the main dining room -Discoveries Restaurant- twice. We had marvelous service and wonderful dinners. We did not take advantage of the two Specialty restaurants. But we spoke with several folks who did go and they said they were outstanding! One of the Windows Cafe buffets was the Mediterranean BBQ (actually it was pool side)...fresh fish from the local village...awesome!!!was one of many pleasant surprises for dinner...for the Greek dinner buffet, fresh feta and veggies were purchased in Rhodes that day! A TRUE Greek salad was prepared by the staff!!! I visited the Mosaic Cafe three times...and what a treat....wonderful "noshs" and great specialty coffees!!!
We went to the Casino a couple of times....didn't win a thing:( I went to the two little boutiques....very nice things, but a bit too pricey. Would have liked to see some Azamara "gifts"...coffee mugs, hand towels, t-shirts...but there were none. Is there a website to purchase any ship souvenirs?
Back to the entertainment....we had some FUN nights....Russ put together a "white" night...it was an awesome party...prior to the party we had a traditional Turkish folkloric show AND belly dancer....they were great and they got the audience involved! Then there was the Greek Folkloric show....it too was excellent!
There was ALWAYS something to do on board...movies, fitness activities, cards, trivia, the list goes on....I did not take advantage of the fitness center (it WAS lovely) nor the spa....too involved with land excursions and exploring the port cities!!! I did use the self-service laundry...it was VERY convenient and simple to use...just LOTS of folks used this service! Maybe another set of washer and dryer on another deck would be nice.
The last day of our cruise, we were given instructions on debarking....when we had to put out our suitcases, how to meet our land excursion of Athens, plenty of time to eat breakfast and say "good bye" to Azamara Quest! All in all, it was a spectacular voyage and we loved our ship, crew and amenities!!!! Less

Cabin review: V37022 Club Veranda Stateroom
We had a lovely cabin. The location was perfect. We were two floors below Window Cafe, the restaurant and two floors above Discoveries and the Cabaret Lounge. We had breakfast (room service) EVERY morning on our veranda. Every day, we had fresh flowers and fresh fruit waiting for us. And at night, we had a little bit of chocolate! Nice touches! We had fluffy robes and slippers that came in very handy. And binoculars which we did not use. There was even an umbrella in our stateroom. Thank goodness we didn't need it:) We had plenty of storage space although it was difficult to get our luggage under the bed to store. The towels and linens were awesome! And the bath amenities were very nice. The self service laundry was right down the hall, but it was always too busy. Should have taken advantage of the laundry service. All in all, we loved our cabin and all the great attention to detail!Read All Club Veranda Stateroom (V3) Reviews >>

Regional Development Policy in European Union
The regional development policy is one of the most important policies and one of the most complex in the EU, as its status is derived from its goal of reducing the economic and social gaps existing between different regions of Europe and it influences different domains that are important for their development, such as economic growth and small and medium enterprises (SME) sector, transports, agriculture, urban development, environmental preservation, employment and professional training, education, gender equality. Designed as a solidarity policy at European level, the regional policy is basically based on financial solidarity, namely on redistributing some parts of the Community budget made up of the contributions of the Member States to the less prosperous regions and social groups (between 2000-2006, the due amount is approximately one third of the EU budget).

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 12/8/2014 (1106 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
TORONTO -- This time Drew Willy couldn't bail his teammates out. Not on the field and not in the locker-room after the game.
Willy was unable to pull off another late-game miracle and his Blue Bombers fell 38-21 to the Toronto Argonauts. And with few mistakes of his own on the night, Willy couldn't take the bullet for his Bombers teammates, who struggled in a lifeless second half.
"They outplayed us. They did a lot right. You have to give them credit," said Willy, who finished the night completing 23 of 31 attempts for 193 yards and two touchdowns. "We were productive in the red zone because we had three touchdowns. I wouldn't say I was less aggressive, but looking at the statistics I can see how you could say that. When you play (quarterback) Ricky Ray you know you are going to have to be productive. You need to put up points."
Blame it on the short week if you will and the hot conditions in Toronto's enclosed baseball stadium (which converts poorly for football) appeared to sap the Bombers late, but in the end this was simply a beatdown.
"They beat us soundly. It's pretty easy to see that. They certainly got us (Tuesday) night," said head coach Mike O'Shea. "They made more plays than us. That's what it comes down to."
The line of scrimmage was once again an area of concern for the Bombers. The Argos were able to rush for more than 170 yards and quarterback Ray was left unpressured for most of the night. He cut the Bombers secondary to shreds, passing for four touchdowns and 297 yards with a completion percentage over 75.
"He can dice you up if you don't get to him and we weren't able to pressure him or force him into mistakes," said Bombers defensive tackle Greg Peach. "The fourth quarter, when we win games it's because we own that last 15 minutes, but they took it to us for most of the second half and especially in the fourth. We have to be in better shape and we have to win the fourth quarter. We can fix that. And we will."
The Bombers opened the season with a 5-1 record but have now lost two straight to fall to 5-3. Upcoming are the lowly Montreal Alouettes before a home-and-home series with the charging Saskatchewan Roughriders.
Bad, Bad Bryant
Bombers wide receiver Romby Bryant had a terrible game, taking two objectionable conduct penalties and fumbling the ball early in the third quarter, which resulted in an Argos' touchdown.
"I feel awful and I take this loss on my shoulders. The first penalty, I was just fooling around and the second one I didn't think I did anything. The fumble? I just got surprised," said Bryant.
O'Shea wasn't throwing his player under the bus.
"I'll have to look at the film and see what happened, but Romby Bryant isn't that type of player," said O'Shea. "He's not a trash talker. He's a pro and his teammates and myself appreciate him taking ownership, but I'll have to have another look at it before I can say anything more."
To challenge or not to challenge
O'Shea elected not to throw a challenge flag on what appeared to be pass interference on a pass from Willy to Aaron Kelly in the third quarter.
"We talked about it. We looked at it. We didn't think it was the right move at that time," said O'Shea. "I watch all the challenges and have a feel for what has been successful and what hasn't and we didn't think this would be a successful challenge."
O-Line woes
The Bombers offensive line once again struggled, this time taking three penalties and allowing their quarterback to be sacked five times. The Bombers failed to rush for 100 yards and Willy was once again forced to try and win the game on his own down the stretch. It's just not a winning formula.
"We have to be better," said Bombers offensive lineman Chris Greaves. "Any time you get beat you have to be better. We have to keep the quarterback upright and we have to open holes for the run game. We just didn't get enough done and we have to get better."

Kidney Diseases
Splenda Impact on Kidneys
I`m 47 and have high blood pressure. I take ExForge, Clonidine, and Simvastatin. My last A1C was 5.4 and my last creatine level was 4.6. I was also taking Spironolactone but my doctor stopped it last week because my potassium was getting too high. My BP ranges roughly 130 - 140 over 80 to 85. Can you advise what Splenda does to the kidneys? I use it in most of my food and have seen my kidney function worsen over the past year. I also understand by reading on the web that it causes the kidneys to enlarge and calcify.
My urine now is sudsy and gout has appeared out of nowhere. Can you help me make sense to this?
Sudsy urine can result from proteinuria.
Gout can occur in kidney failure because the kidney cannot unload uric acid as well as a normal kidney.
Splenda is not associated with kidney disease in people. In old toxicology studies it was associated with enlarged and calcified kidneys in the rat. The internet is filled with misleading information. Thanks for stopping at NetWellness.

Food Q & A With Clippers All-Star Baron Davis: L.A. Native Talks South Central, Crossroads, UCLA and More
Baron Davis at Clippers media day
2009 Eric Richardson
Baron Davis is a rarity in this city. He is a true Los Angeles athlete, having grown up in South Central, playing high school basketball at Crossroads in Santa Monica, then in Westwood at UCLA, where after two years, he was chosen with the 3rd overall pick in the 1999 NBA Draft by the Charlotte Hornets. But after 10 years in the NBA, playing for Charlotte, New Orleans, and Golden State, he came back home to Los Angeles, signing a 5-year contract with the Clippers.
We recently reached the 2-time All-Star by email, and took the opportunity to ask him about the food of his youth, and where he ate at each of his L.A. stops along the way.
Squid Ink: So let's start with growing up in South Central. What did you eat at home? Was there anywhere you went out to eat?
Baron Davis: When I was growing up, my grandmother cooked every day. She is the best chef ever. I didn't eat at many restaurants when I was younger. There wasn't much in South Central anyways, except for fast food joints... much like it is today!
SI: What sorts of things did your grandmother make for you?
BD: Mac 'n cheese, collard greens, all kinds of desserts. And she was the best vegetable-maker in the world!
SI: During your time at Crossroads, did you go off-campus to eat lunch? What were some of your Santa Monica spots?
BD: At Crossroads, Chin Chin was always the spot to go. On the weekends we'd go to the Promenade and hang around there. After school, I think I was Tacos Por Favor's most regular customer!
SI: What about Westwood? Where did you go?
BD: Westwood was all about sandwiches, I loved Sandbags! And date night meant we usually went to Headlines Café. After games we always went to BJ's or Shakey's. It was all about the hearty college food and places where a bunch of us could go and hang out.
SI: Now you're back in Los Angeles as a Clipper. Where are you eating now?
BD: L.A. has such great restaurants, from fancy spots to hole-in-the-wall, there is something for everybody. I still love Tacos Por Favor, The Conga Room, Cut, Versailles... too many to name!
SI: How difficult is it to balance having good taste, and the need to keep your body in shape for basketball?
BD: Everything in moderation is what I always try to tell myself. But whether you're an athlete or not, its always important to eat healthy. Might be a little easier now to eat more of what I want because we burn a lot of calories being on the court, but that won't last forever. I just try to have a balance in what I am eating.
SI: Talk to us a little about the food that's provided for the players on the team plane, in the locker room, and wherever else it crops up. How greatly does that vary from team to team?
BD: It's usually all about the same -- always really healthy, nothing fried... everything baked or grilled, and there is always fruit and salads. The team does a really good job of taking care of us and making sure we're eating right.
SI: The NBA, as they say, is a business, and nobody is un-tradeable. Let's say, God forbid, that you got traded to another team. What would be your last meal in L.A. before you left?
BD: Any of my favorite Mexican spots: most likely Pinches or Tacos Por Favor.
SI: Last question. Better food town: Los Angeles or San Francisco?
BD: Hard to say, I love them both for different reasons. In S.F. I liked being able to go out my door and walk down the street to some great spots. In L.A., there are so many different options, I never get tired of the restaurants here.
The Los Angeles Clippers 2010-11 season begins Wednesday, October 27, at home against the Portland Trailblazers.

North Coast shoppers prepare for storm
EUREKA- The storm has North Coast shoppers out in full force, buying all sorts of supplies to prepare for the worst.
Shoppers at Pierson Building Center in Eureka started preparing for the storm last week by purchasing a variety of necessities.
"A lot of rain boots, a lot of tarps, a lot of those emergency candles, flashlights and batteries are going like crazy, extension chords, those are our top things, rain gear," said Samantha Walker, who is a cashier at Pierson Building Center.
Fieldbrook resident Angel Amato is buying batteries for flashlights.
"I'm buying batteries today because there's a good possibility the lights are going to go out at our house and we want to make sure we're prepared," said Amato.
While Ferndale resident Peter Profant is getting propane canisters for his lantern.
"It's convenient. It's decentralized and ever ready and available so it's better than batteries for my purposes so you get a nice, bright light from burning propane," said Profant.
North Coast residents say being ready is the best strategy to weather the storm.
"I've been in this situation a time or two in my day and it's something that happens often enough that we know how hard it is to get by if you're not prepared," said Robert Jones, who is a Eureka resident.
Some North Coast residents expect the storm to be a big one.
"Usually, the weather is pretty close around here so when they say it's going to rain, it's already raining and when they say it's going to blow, it's blowing and I think we're in for a good one," Jones said.
Other shoppers say they're not as concerned about the storm.
"I expect the storm might side swipe us and not be a big deal," Profant said.
"I'm not concerned about the storm. I've lived here in Humboldt all of my life and we get wind, we get rain," Amato said.

A new development, 42 Crosby Street, is pushing the limits of New York City real estate to new heights with 10 underground parking spots that will cost more per square foot than the apartments being sold upstairs.
At $250,000 a tire, the parking spaces in the underground garage cost more than four times the national median sales price for a home, which is $217,800, according to Zillow. — New York Times

As the person in charge of design for Ford's entire vehicle porfolio, Mays looks at architecture a lot. And he's ever mindful of buildings and how they're designed whenever he sets about creating a new car or truck for Ford.
What he's learned — and what he likes— about architecture, and Chicago architecture in particular, will be his focus when he joins the panel discussion "Big Ideas in Small Places" on Thursday at the Chicago Architecture Foundation. — bizjournals.com
Technologies, such as building information modeling and integrated-product delivery, have enabled architecture firms to design better buildings and deliver them more quickly and more efficiently. Yet in today's fiercely competitive global marketplace, efficiency and speed alone are not enough to guarantee market viability. The real differentiator is design—as an engine of innovation and a productive force for creating economic value. — Michael Speaks, archrecord.construction.com

Recent college graduate Benjamin Braddock is trapped into an affair with Mrs. Robinson, who happens to be the wife of his father's business partner and then finds himself falling in love with her teenage daughter, Elaine.
So here's to you Mrs. Robinson — you certainly cut a swathe through Hollywood's middle-class American value system at the fag-end of the 60s. Hooking up with primordial Generation X-er, Benjamin Braddock (son of her husband's partner) stunned, appalled and excited cinemagoers (it was a huge hit) and created a classic tale of social dysfunction and trashing weddings. We're all fucked up, Nichols' bravura poem sang to us, is there any hope? This was satire at its most biting.
Benjamin Braddock is a startling creation, his disassociation and disaffection carry shades of Salinger's miseryguts Holden Caulfield, but Benjamin is portrayed in a much more heart-on-sleeve fashion. He is set apart from the wealthy vacuum-packed world of his parents (summed-up by Walter Brooke's terrifying single word of advice: "plastics") and distanced from the loved-up world of his peers. Adulthood and the future beckon, but he can only float, finding solace at the bottom of the pool (water serves as a constant metaphor for separation) and escape in the clutches of Mrs. Robinson: saviour, parasite, devil.
Nichols first approached an ageing Doris Day for the part of Mrs. Robinson, but she was horrified by the subject matter, terrified of ruffling her clean-cut 50s persona. Still, it is hard to imagine anyone but Anne Bancroft in the role. In reality merely seven years Hoffman's senior, she locates the dark heart of a character consumed by self-loathing and armoured in cool cynicism. She shifts from tragic to malicious, certainly a vampiric figure but in the face of the buttoned-down platitudes of their suffocating suburban deadzone her bitterness makes her real. She represents a Benjamin or Elaine (Ross) that has given in ("It's too late," she growls at a fleeing Elaine. "Not for me!" her daughter cruelly returns).
Hoffman was also a second choice. Nichols had mulled over Robert Redford as Benjamin but surmised that playing a bit of a loser would be a stretch for an actor that beautiful. In a career defining turn, Hoffman (then I 29), filled the angsty loafer with ; a nasally self-absorption, equally misfit and arsehole. Katharine Ross was blessed with the ideal American sweetheart looks for Elaine — the counterpoint to all the vulgar goings-on at the Taft Hotel. As the film shifts into its more romanticised second-half, Elaine is transformed into an elusive, angelic figure — another symbol of rescue for the hangdog loner Benjamin.
Though the film frequents painful areas of life, it is very funny. The infamous seduction sequence allows Hoffman a twitching realistic terror, further exacerbated by the almost knockabout humour of the first hotel liaison ("Are you here for an affair, sir ?"). In the bedroom his nerves reduce him to madly banging his head against the wall — a scene improvised by Hoffman and maintained as he noticed his director screaming with laughter. Buck Henry and Calder Willingham's adaptation of Charles Webb's novel, is a bounty of observational wit from screwed-up individuals. Benjamin is forced to show-off his new scuba gear at another vile parental shindig and Nichols shoots it all POV with heavy Darth Vader breathing as his dad (William Daniels) submerges him in the pool. The opening dinner party is a smear of cloying chitchat from the gauche neighbourhood zombies until the phantom presence of Mrs. Robinson beckons him to drive her home.
Mrs. Robinson, the song that is, is never actually sung in the movie, serving only as a jangly instrumental backing to the race-to-stop-the-wedding finale (Nichols later encouraged Simon to apply the lyrics). Simon And Garfunkel's legendary songs that do feature are integral to the themes of isolation and yearning, as much a part of The Graduate vibe as Nichols' mannered I direction. From the intro as : Benjamin arrives at LAX airport = (a travelator scene nabbed by " Quentin Tarantino for Jackie ( Brown) to the balladeering of * The Sound Of Silence, the songs constantly establish and fix his state-of-mind. The ending has been the cause of endless debate. Having clutched Elaine from the jaws of mediocrity, they flag down a bus and in the face of the passengers' incredulous looks make their way to the back. Here Nichols pulls his finest, radically unromanticised trick. At first they giggle and gasp at their foolhardiness, then they look apart and the movie fades away. Spirtually they have separated, the comfort has broken. This is not a fairytale ending, this is an uncertain voyage into the future: have they run away together or have they just run away? Coo-coo-ca-choo.
Cruel comedy with a delicious light touch.

Netflix is partnering with indie sales outfit Fortissimo Films to offer more than 60 titles via its U.S. service. Starting in September, arthouse pics from directors including Jiang Wen, Clara Law and Mika Kaurismaki will become available. While some of the features may be a bit obscure for U.S. audiences, many are awards winners from the international festival circuit including Jiang's 2000 film Devils On The Doorstep, a story set during the Japanese occupation of China which won the Grand Jury prize in Cannes that year. The deal also includes the 1999 pic Goddess Of 1967 which brought Rose Byrne a Best Actress prize in Venice. Fortissimo has a library of about 300 features and the deal is its first move into the digital streaming space.
Netflix, Fortissimo Pact To Bring Arthouse Titles To U.S. Customers

Super Kudos Mchael. Love to see these large deals. So many great films will be so much more accessible – thanks Netfix; I guess I'll have to subscribe now because I won't get these films on my Time Warner or Direct TV.
I'm loving Netflix streaming more and more every day. When awesome indie films like THE HUNTER, WARRIOR and ALBERT NOBBS show up so quickly, as well as other foreign films, including much Asian cinema, I wet myself. It's just awesome. I just can't believe I didn't sign on earlier. I love streaming, especially Netflix streaming!!!
Obvious Netflix plants are obvious

Findings from a premature ejaculation study, presented at a media briefing in Singapore this week, have shown how common the problem is.
The independent Premature Ejaculation Prevalence Study showed that at least 20% of Singaporean men suffer from premature ejaculation. Even more men responded to the survey by saying they had little ejaculatory control. Results of premature ejaculation include low self esteem and relationship difficulties. One professor involved with the study noted that PE had a "devastating effect on self esteem and quality of life."
A typical scenario involving premature ejaculation is this, said the doctors: premature ejaculation occurs so both the man and his partner avoid sex. Over time this leads to strains on the relationship and a lack of intimacy. If the couple wishes to conceive, then this lack of sexual contact may be an even more serious problem.
Most of the men with premature ejaculation (92%) said that they were worried that the problem left their partner unfulfilled.
As is the case elsewhere in the world, many men in Singapore are too embarrassed to speak about premature ejaculation. "Because of fear and negative connotations of the condition, couples often only seek help when their inability to conceive a child hits them," said Professor Peter Lim, an expert from Singapore.
Unfortunately, suffering in silence is only likely to prolong men's premature ejaculation problems, and reduce their chances of getting help. A new drug called Priligy has been introduced in some countries to help men with premature ejaculation last longer in bed. Other treatments are widely available such as creams and lotions. If you are experiencing premature ejaculation and would like to do something about it, speak to your doctor about the best way forward.

Learn about removing the ads from this memorial...
Oct. 12, 1821
Oct. 27, 1904
William Timms was born in the Parish of Broom, Bidford. Warwickshire. England on October 12, 1821 son of John Timms and Alice Smith.e youngest of four children. He was about 14 years old when his mother died in 1835. Since William's father was a carpenter. this was the trade which William entered. He worked with his father until he was sixteen years old. On July 4. 1837 William was apprenticed as a carpenter. When his apprenticeship was over he went to visit his sister at Cladswell and she told him that she had invited Mary Ann Avery over and that he was to be there to meet her. William and Mary Ann must have gotten along from the very beginning because they were married on July 15. 1843. They moved to Harrington where he was baptized on February 16, 1845. They started their family on May 13. 1845 when their first child. a son, William John Avery was born. Seven children of the nine children born to them lived to adulthood. William wanted to share the gospel with others and preached in the Market Square at Evesham, Worcester and at several villages. During these times they also entertained such well known missionaries as President John Taylor. Erastus Snow, Moses Thatcher and others. He also met Elder Pratt and John Taylor, two of the twelve, who came to England. William and Mary Ann wanted to leave England and go to Zion and that William would go first, since they did not have enough money to go all at once. He said he would go first. It was a very rough trip across the ocean. The Saints gathered together, loaded wagons with the supplies that they had purchased, and the little things they had brought from home and started across the plains. The roads were good at the beginning of their trip, but the farther they went the worse the roads became. William and Mary Ann's daughter, Hannah, had married John Devey on June 20, 1868 on the ship Emerald Isle which took them across the ocean. The first of the their children to leave England. One by one they came to America: Alice, age 20 and Annie, age 10, sailed on July 28, 1869 on the ship Colorado. William and John sailed aboard the Nevada ship on July 26, 1871. They crossed the plains in the Lott Smith Company. Avery was 11 years old when he sailed October 16, 1871 on the Minnesota, with his sister Hannah's brother-in-law, William Henry Devey, who was his same age. Mary Ann, his wife, and daughter Damarius along with a cousin Tryphena Timms, sailed July 9, 1873 on the ship Nevada. All his children and his wife were in the Salt Lake Valley by 1873. William built a home for his family in Salt Lake City, on the northeast bench at ____Street and Third Avenue. They lived there for the rest of their life. His wife, Mary Ann, died when she was 67 years old. William was 83 years old when he died on October 24, 1904 and is buried beside his wife at the Salt Lake City Cemetery.

Here comes the Tolkki Train again with yet another album! Fortunately, unlike his misbegotten headache Saana, this new project, titled Revolution Renaissance, reigns in the bullshit to make for a listenable and somewhat enjoyable palette of Power Metal fruits and vegetables.
Apparently afraid of negative feedback, our good friend Timo Tolkki has crafted a healthy and well balanced diet of happy, upbeat Power Metal that reigns in silliness and pomp in favor for clean, simple, catchy melodies and nimble guitarwork, with a crystal clear, shiny production job to round the whole thing off in style. This really isn't spectacular, as it is too safe and fluffy to pack any real punch (beyond the ballsy Speed Metal riffing of opener "Heroes") or bite, and it's all so simple and basic that, if not for the distorted guitars, it would very well be pop-rock music rather than Heavy Metal. The vocal duties on New Era are shared by Michael Kiske, Tobias Sammet and Pasi Rantanen, and they are clearly the focal point here, with few instrumental breaks - and when there are some, they are short and snappy. There are really only a couple good songs here, the best being the opening feel-good jaunt of the aforementioned "Heroes," with Tobias Sammet belting out the cheesiest, happiest lyrics you can imagine with 110% power. "I Did It My Way" is decent Keepers Helloween worship, with a catchy chorus via Kiske, and "Glorious & Divine" is a fun, catchy song that flows like the white water rapids, with Sammet's smooth croon giving it an extra spice of personality. "Last Night on Earth" is another good song, reminiscent of later Stratovarius, with strong melodies and a very catchy chorus. Hey, it might not be the most amazing stuff ever, but how can I turn down such blatantly catchy, fun shit? I can't, that's right.
Otherwise, there isn't much of worth here, and only a few traces of Tolkki's usual inconsistencies pop up: the awful "Born Upon the Cross," with its Jesus-blowjob styled lyrics that will make any self respecting Heavy Metal fan cringe in disgust, the boring "Keep the Flame Alive" and the even worse "Angel," and the plodding, lame title track, which shamelessly rips off an earlier Stratovarius song in "Soul of a Vagabond."
This one is pretty middle-ground, and unless you worship Timo Tolkki, you can safely skip it and not miss too much. Catchy but shallow.
