Naiad Ensnarers
The Naiad Ensnarers can be found among the Nertican and Forces of Nature lists, they are one of the more unique basic units in Kings of War. So before we go into it any further lets take a look at this units profile and abilities.
Note: Average is not bad.
With a Speed of 5 this puts the unit at the average speed. While you can outrun the Dwarfs and Halflings (and a few more) many armies will have a speed of 6 putting you at high risk of taking a charge. When you only have a defense of 3+ this is dangerous and steps must be taken to lessen the impact of enemy charges.
Melee of 4 is again, very average.
Defense 3 is the Naiads biggest downfall. Yes it has Ensnare and Regeneration but any hit that gets through will be very likely to wound. Against armies with the vicious special rule this unit will suffer even more. Later on we can talk about how to lessen this problem.
Attack progression is normal for a non phalanx unit and isn't much to talk about here. On par with most basic infantry.
Again Nerve is average, not the 21/23 of others but also not the 19/21 of the lesser willed.
The Points cost of the unit is pretty high for a unit of it's type and it is clear it's price is inflated by it's special abilities. While it's profile is below average it's abilities are far better than average. So really to decide how effective this unit is we have to look at it's abilities and if it's worth the price you end up paying.
So looking at the basic profile we have a below average infantry unit, average in every way except it's low defense. So why the high points cost? Again it's abilities. So lets look at those.
Ensnare is the obvious ability here and is a powerful one. Ensnare "grants" a -1 to the enemies melee value when being attacked from it's front arc. For most basic troops this means hitting you on 5's which can be the difference between life and death, especially when this unit has a defense of 3+ and they need to prevent as many hits coming through as possible.
Pathfinder is ALWAYS good to have. If your tables are set up properly you can speedily navigate through much of the difficult terrain (just avoid obstacles!). A smart commander can combine this with Ensnare and cause a whopping -2 to hit from enemy attacks. When you can make the best of these 2 rules this unit begins to punch above it's points cost.
Regeneration of 4+ is very good. Most units have a regeneration of 5 or 6 but to have a 4+ is simply amazing. However to use this ability you need to survive the enemies attacks. You effectively have heal to the value of the number of wounds on this unit. To see how good this is simply look at how much the heal spell costs to buy on your mages.
After seeing it's slightly less than average profile these abilities really start making this unit shine. But do these abilities justify the price? Possibly, there are ways to inflate this units profile and minimize it's flaws.
How does a commander make the best of this unit? Well on paper this is simple. Get them into a forest (or jungle or whatever terrain you have) and provide them with inspiring. This unit shines when all of it's abilities are being used together. Being in terrain does not hinder your Naiads however removes TC from the enemy and gives them a -1 to hit, then combined with -1 from ensnare means the enemy will likely do negligible damage, have inspiring nearby to ensure they don't die to a freak nerve roll and then next turn regenerate a lot of damage. There is nothing better than units who simply waste the enemies time.
So defensively in the right position this is a great anvil unit. But they lack much in the way of offensive power. Having something that can hit hard nearby will make any attackers wanting to take the Naiads ground have a bad day. As usual with KOW for a unit to truly shine you need to combined arms approach.
The bane of this unit is shooting. With defense 3 it would be very easy for the enemy to put wounds on you at range. In my opinion this rules out the use of Naiad troops and to an extent Regiments. You really need this unit to stick around (you certainly paid enough points to warrant this) and a horde gives it a fair chance to regen it up and carry on it's job.
Ultimately this unit is not always going to be good, it's either going to be a little bit of a let down or make even the most elite units cry. You have to be very smart about how you use these because they are too fragile to simply use as an anvil out in the open. They also need support to start doing the damage against enemy units or they will slowly be worn down and lost. Remember these guys are there to waste the enemies points not your own.
A horde of these paired with a troop of high damage output units will fair well. For Nerticans this could be the Thuul who can put out the hurt with it's 20 attacks or for the Force of Nature the Hunters of the Wild would be exceptional. Hunters of the wild also have Pathfinder so this combo can work very well and even greater if you can fit a bane chant in there!
Remember these guys are the anvil, they need a hammer. Try find a hammer with pathfinder to make the best of them.
VerdictWith the Naiad Ensnarers you have to go all out or nothing. It requires planning and work in both deployment and list building to squeeze the most out of this unit so be sure to plan around them.
Overall I would rate this unit as potentially Excellent when used right but below average when used wastefully.
This unit does wonders in it's optimum environment but everywhere else it is below average for it's cost. So before using these look at your tables and decide if Naiads will have a fair chance at doing their job.
So this is unit review number 1 up. Let me know if I missed anything and if you want another unit looked at I can do so.

Arctic Monkeys have revealed that the title of their new album Suck It And See will be censored in America.
The 'Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair' band are currently preparing to release their fourth studio album on June 6, but frontman Alex Turner explained that the title will be covered in certain US retail stores.
Turner told XFM: "They think it is rude, disrespectful. They're putting a sticker over it in America in certain stores, big ones."
Arctic Monkeys previously said that the new record is a mix of their first three albums, revealing that they struck a balance lyrically and musically on the disc.
Suck It And See has also been made available to stream online a week before its release via the group's website.

Dentistry has come a long way in the past 10 years - new cosmetic dentistry procedures, stronger dental materials, improved techniques all the way around.
Some of us, though, have not had the opportunity to take advantage of these breakthroughs until later in life. In fact, more than 42% of people over 65 have experienced significant tooth loss and must resort to dentures. Now there are options: dental implants.
Tooth replacement systems differ, but they are all intended to provide a better alternative to removable dentures. As any denture wearer will tell you, there's nothing more irritating than a slippery lower denture and the uncertainty it brings. An ill-fitting denture may cause accelerated bone loss, too, and aggravate oral decline. Teeth implants can bring back bite strength, stability and, most important, self-confidence.
The dental implant procedure is a three-stage process. First, an implant device is inserted into the upper or lower jawbone. Usually only local anesthesia is required, though a hospital stay may be advised. You will be given a temporary appliance so you can go on your way until the second stage.
After a healing period of some months, implant and bone have grown together. Posts are then attached to each tooth implant - these protrude through gum tissue. After a few weeks a fixed bridge or "overdenture," will be inserted. Then teeth will be attached to the posts. In some cases, an existing denture can be modified to secure over tooth implants comfortably.
The dental implant procedure takes some time and some money. You need sufficient viable bone in the jaw to support teeth implants, and a willingness to take good care of yourself during treatment. Finally, your expectations must be reasonable. Dental implants won't behave like natural teeth, but do promise better eating and speaking abilities and vitality.
Implant dentistry has been around for 25 years and the success stories are very impressive. In these, the best years of life, you owe yourself the gift of self-esteem. See your tooth implant dentist today!
When the concept of dental implants and the mechanisms in which they work were introduced to mainstream dentistry during the late 1970's, the advent of dental implants opened up an excitingly new chapter in dentistry.
Through the 1980's, the news of the successful procedure of dental implant surgery spread at an explosive rate. It took approximately ten years of repeated long-term success for the procedure to gain validity.
By the early 1990's dentists readily accepted implant dentistry as an adequate and routine substitute for missing teeth in all areas of the mouth.
Restoring dental implants has undergone a paradigm shift from simply validating that dental implants work to recreating missing teeth with a chameleon-like effect. Even though implants can be restored with a very high degree of success, one of the most difficult and critical areas in the mouth to achieve great esthetic results is in the upper front jaw -- specifically when replacing a single upper central incisor tooth.
Single-tooth implant dentistry present dentists with unique challenges. When a single central incisor tooth is removed due to periodontal disease, tooth decay, trauma, or nerve failure, the body responds by shrinking the bone and gum tissue in place of the missing tooth. The body no longer needs the supporting bone structure; therefore, the bone is decreased and the gum tissue shrinks because of bone resorption.
In order to achieve a natural appearance to the final restoration, restorative dentists must attempt to replace what nature he as taken away. An unnatural appearance will be the result if the tooth is replaced without considering augmenting or "plumping up" the support structures. It would be like placing a great painting in the wrong frame, thus having a diminished outcome.
Certain steps are necessary to achieve a successful outcome, especially in the most demanding implant cases, like replacing a single upper front tooth. Before the decision to place an implant is made, patients should know the sequential steps.
The process starts with a thorough exam. Clinically, dentists should examine the affected area and the entire mouth. A comprehensive exam of the bone and soft tissues must be performed along with taking specific X-rays and possibly detailed bone scans to identify any potential complications.
An analysis of your smile should also be performed. Do your teeth and gums show when you smile? Does your upper lip drape over your teeth? If the patient has a high lip line that shows teeth and gums, the need for bone and soft tissue grafting may be necessary.
By discussing several of the aspects necessary for implant treatment, you can be more aware of the possibilities, as well as the limitations, associated with implant dentistry. Armed with various soft and hard tissue grafting techniques, ceramic material advancements, and better dental implant components, dentists are able to satisfy even the most esthetically-minded patients.

|Winter Solstice Stonehenge, Wiltshire, England
"The winter solstice, the rebirth of the Sun, is an important turning point, as it marks the shortest day, when the hours of daylight are at their least. It's also the start of the increase in the hours of daylight, until the Summer solstice when darkness becomes ascendant once more."
Throughout time many cultures understood the astronomical phenomena that divided their year into half light and half dark (and was so critical to their survival) celebrated the midwinter sun with festivals based on the need to preserve light and ensure the return of the sun. To ancient people it seemed that the sun may never return once it dipped below the horizon so they practiced rites to call it back and sought to capture it's light.
Around the world many ancient and sacred sites are oriented to capture the rays of the sun and moon at certain points of the year. The picture above shows the rising sun of the winter solstice as it shines through the carefully aligned standing stones of Stonehenge.
New Grange in Northern Ireland was originally called An Liamh Greine – the 'Cave of the Sun' and for a week either side of the winter solstice the sun shines through a narrow slot above its door and pours down an 80 foot passage into a chamber where it strikes the back walls and lights up intricately carved spirals and solar discs. The triskele, or triple spiral is a tripartite symbol composed of three interlocked spirals. The triple spiral is an ancient Celtic symbol related to the sun, afterlife and reincarnation. The light remains for approximately seventeen minutes and then fades again.

The Egyptians also used architecture to convey the significance of the solstice with the great temples at Karnack, Thebes and Abydos built in such a way as to focus the rays of the midwinter and midsummer sun directly into the heart of the temple enclosures.

The war is called Silent War, due the United States start with their uprising in the world after a massive event took there number one status in the world. The official duration is 10 years, but is also considered to only a few years, because the war never unleashed to any real wars in the world. The comparization with the cold war is taken with a grain of salt, as there were real proxy wars going on in the world, which isn't in the Silent war. That explains the term "silent".
After Russia was defeated and the United States were the victors of World War III, the world began to rebuild itself. Since war stimulates the economy of some countries and deteriorated some others, the NATO came stronger out of the war, but the United States had lost New York due the heavy fights. Nothing was left of the centre and a plan to rebuild it began. It took 3 years, but New York slowly began to retake his number one spot of greatest city in the world. But that was only for a short time.

On Saturday – we decided to walk through the Philomath Classic Car Show. Not only was it a good day to get out as summer has finally arrived here in the NW – but, as it turns out, I haven't leveled a camera on a group of cars in some time.
To be honest – I find car shows one of the single most difficult places to photograph. Why? Well – for starters – most folks have an idea of what a '55 Chevy truck ought to look like. It's a tall challenge to create a compelling car photo. And creating one at a car show – with people and clutter and more cars in the background is simply that much more of a task.
That said – every now and then – I like to go to a car show with a camera and see if I can possibly create an image or two.
For this one – I decided, for the most part, to restrict my tools and I shot most of the day with either the Lensbaby Sweet 35 or the Sigma 10mm fisheye.
The Lensbaby Sweet 35 (for folks not familiar with it – it's a selective focus optic) is great for melting the back ground away in that Lensbaby blur. On the other hand, the fisheye requires a completely different approach – and I was often shooting just inches from the car in an attempt to eliminate background clutter.
When shooting classic cars (and really anything) – B&W can also be a pretty good tool to help eliminate background distractions.
And yes, my proof sheet has a whole bunch of bulbous bumpers in it from the fisheye – but I decided to save you from them. 🙂
If you check out the Camera47 Instagram feed – there's a few more photos over there, too.

The poster told us it started 7.30pm, so I stuck my head in just after 8pm to see promoter Steve Rastin stood on a stage void of equipment staring at a lone extension cable. 'Some things never change!' I thought and headed to Wethers for a cheap pint with Steve Sync.
By 9.30pm there was activity at The North… Three police officers were stood outside looking for someone who was on 'Pub Watch' (as in Banned from The Pubs) – it takes three cops to stop some chav from going into the pubs; if he's that bad why not just lock him up, or beat him up?

It was certainly an unexpected treat to get the South Walian death metal legends up in such an esteemed local environment as Rhyl, and the night continued to be full of surprises/chaos. Fair play to Dirty Vultures Promotions for continuing to have the vision and balls in their bookings to bring them here on this short weekend tour, along with another couple of travelling bands. Added to this was a couple of local acts, one of which was a bunch of part timers who had undoubtedly blagged their way on the bill due to playing with the headliners once before. READ MORE »
NEW EP – Psycodeth – Church of Misery
I first stumbled upon Psycodeth at The Railway Institute in Bangor earlier this year – they stopped us in our tracks [sic] – they were ace – criminally young to be making such a massive noise and they put a wide grin on our faces. How great to find a local band making a metal racket for a change… and I mean RACKET. READ MORE »
INTERVIEW – Psycodeth
I saw Rhyl's Psycodeth at the Railway Institute a couple of weeks ago and they literally stopped us in our tracks (excuse the pun!). Now, I was never one for Slayer and Metallica when they first started doing the rounds, only saw Metallica for the first time, when Tim dragged me to the MEN about three years ago, and after the second time (and a 3 hour set), I vowed never to see them again. And I only listened to Slayer for the first time a month ago when Cumi coaxed me into 'giving them a try.'
Psycodeth struck something within me, beside the fact that they are criminally young (unless you worked in showbiz), they are the only band in North Wales playing this genre (as far as I know), and they are quite simply fucking excellent at what they do. READ MORE »
GIG REVIEW – Psycodeth, Atlas Will Atone, Braxton Hicks @ The Skerries, Bangor
(review by mwj / pix by neil crud / vid by paul bryce)
I really should go out in Bangor more often, treated to homemade curries in advance, chauffered to venues, thoroughly entertained, in good company, then taxied back, with more curry and a bed for the night! The opportunity is definitely there as there is a steady supply of gigs at The Skerries for a while now care of North Wales Metal Promotions. It may be pretty small but that keeps it cosy and the sounds loud, and tonight there is a busier turnout than I've seen previously there too. READ MORE »

Kidō (鬼道, "demon way" or "spirit way"; sometimes translated as Demon Arts; Viz "Soul Reaper's powers"; "Spells") is a form of Shinigami combat based on advanced spells. These spells are produced with strong Reiryoku and fall into two categories: Hadō for direct attacks, and Bakudō for battle support. It is one of the techniques in the Zankensoki, the group of Shinigami primary combat skills. Kidō spells are triggered by an incantation. Experienced users can trigger them without an incantation, though the effectiveness of the spell will be diminished.
The Kidō Corps is a branch of Soul Society's military which excels in the mastery of Kidō.
Kidō MechanicsEdit
Most spells are graded on a scale from 1 to 99, spells of the latter being the most powerful and the most difficult to perform. To use Kidō, a Shinigami must recite the specific incantation for the spell, which is often long and requires a few seconds to speak.
The power of a spell relies on the power of the user, as even a low-level spell can be utterly devastating when utilized by a high-class Shinigami.
Kidō can be used for practical purposes as well. Such as creating a torch by taking a spell and decreasing its power.
Kidō ClassificationEdit
There are three main types of Kidō: binding spells, destruction spells, and healing spells.
- Bakudō: (縛道, lit. "Way of Binding"): Supplementary spells which can immobilize an enemy or have an effect besides a direct strike. They may seem subtle, but these spells can give their users a tactical advantage when used properly. These are a broad category of defensive spells which block/repel attacks or freezes enemies in place. This class of spells include Kidō Barriers & Seals.
- Barriers: Focused spiritual energy formed into a solid form of energy. This energy can take on many shapes or colors as determined by the user. Barriers are protective in nature, and can be as simple as a barrier only protecting one direction or encompassing all sides of an area. Barriers can be used for containment, and some barriers can be used offensively. Barriers can mask spiritual pressure and can make one spiritually and physically invisible. The strength of a barrier is dependent upon the power of the user. Weak barriers are easily breakable, while strong ones can last for centuries. Barriers created by noble blood are said to be unbreakable by those of lesser status. Certain barriers can be placed beforehand and activated later, while others require certain artifacts and time to activate.
- Seals: Somewhat similar to barriers, but far more powerful and require far more preparation to create. Seals can only be used by those of sufficient spiritual power being who are meant to hold the most powerful and/or dangerous artifacts or beings. Seals are usually hard to break.
- Hadō (破道, lit. "Way of Destruction"): Offensive spells which inflict direct damage to the enemy. Their effectiveness differs depending on the user. It is said the effectiveness of the higher-ranked spells are beyond imagination.[5]
- Kaidō (回道, lit. "Turn Way"): Also known as healing Kidō (治療用鬼道, chiryōyō kidō). These spells do not have known names, numbers, or incantations to cast, and simply heal the target. As the user holds his/her hands above the patient's wounds, his/her palms glow with green spiritual energy to facilitate healing. When one heals with regular healing kidō, they perform Reiatsu restoration first. By doing so, one can attempt to recover the physical body using the patient's restored reiatsu and the healer's external reiatsu. Therefore, restoring the reiatsu when the physical body is in a fully healed state is no trouble at all.

|Team 2 : Redox Microenvironment, Cytoskeleton and tumor progression
Head : Hervé Kovacic - Tel. : 04 91 83 56 27, Vincent Peyrot - Tel. : 04 91 83 55 05
Secretary : Sandrine Bouvet - Tel. : 04 91 83 56 54
Location : 2nd floor
Faculte de Pharmacie - 27, Boulevard Jean Moulin - 13385 Marseille CEDEX 5
Theme 1 : Redox micro-environment and colorectal cancer progression and treatment.
Theme 2 : Microtubules cytoskeleton, redox modulation and therapeutic efficiency.
Theme 3 : Screening and molecular characterization of new anticancer drugs.
Colorectal cancer is one of the major types of cancer worldwide, in terms of both morbidity and mortality. The metastatic evolution of a primary tumor represents the major cause of death in cancer. Nox1 NADPH oxidase is largely expressed in colon epithelial cells compared to other tissues (lung, liver) and its expression is increased in tumor harboring an activating K-Ras mutation.
Nox1, colorectal metastatic progression and tumor cell migration
The conversion of a static primary tumor into an invasive disseminating metastasis involves an enhanced migratory ability of the tumor cells. We identified Nox1 NADPH oxidase as a major regulator of directionality of migration in two-dimension experimental settings through the modulation of RhoA and integrins (Sadok et al.2009). Our aim is to (a) understand the inter-relationship between Nox1, Stathmin (a microtubule depolymerising protein), RhoA and integrins in the control of the directionality of migration. (b) Evaluate the link between the loss of directionality induced by Nox1 and/or stathmin and the mesenchymal/amoeboid transition observed in 3D invasion models. (c) Evaluate the impact of Nox1 knock-out or Nox1 activity modulation on the occurrence of metastasis in mice models.
Redox modulation of the chemotherapy/biotherapy association
The antagonism of the EGFR targeted therapy associated to oxaliplatin in colorectal metastatic patients harbouring an activating K-Ras mutation greatly limits the choice of therapy for these patients. We showed that oxaliplatin/cetuximab antagonism relies on Nox1-dependent ROS production. Further characterization of the involvement of Nox1 in the efficiency of therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer patients is ongoing.
Microtubules which are tightly regulated by microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) such as tau (stabilizing) and stathmin (destabilizing). A lot of questions remain as how they interact with tubulin and what really happens inside the cells. Using biophysical in vitro approaches approaches (ITC, AUC, spectrometry, ...) and cellular approaches (FRET, FRAP cellular imaging,) we intend to understand this interaction in situ.
In this context, we study the impact of oxidative stress (protein carbonylation) on microtubule cytoskeleton, in particular in the interaction of tubulin and its microtubule associated protein tau reported to be sensitive to oxidative stress. After characterizing and quantifying by proteomics analysis, Tau carbonylation in vitro, we will determine the consequences of these modifications on their physiological (tau dependant microtubules formation) and pathological (fibril formation) functions.
We will also demonstrate in living cells the effects of carbonylation on Tau localization along microtubules and study the involvement of Nox (1-5) on the occurrence of such carbonylation.
Our aims is to (a) characterize the binding of MAPs to tubulin/microtubules at molecular and cellular level (b) the impact of microtubules targeting agents on MAPs to tubulin/microtubules binding (c) Identify proteins oxidized in vitro by the activation of the NADPH oxidase and more specifically characterize the effect of ROS on the feature of the tubulin / microtubule and the regulating associated proteins (tau, stathmin). We will further study the impact of these oxidations on binding and efficiency of the microtubules targeting agents.
Identification of anti-integrin from snake venoms (Pr. J. Luis)
Snakes venoms are relevant sources of toxins and peptides that have evolved towards the engineering of highly active compounds. In collaboration with the Institut Pasteur de Tunis, we have isolated and characterized various disintegrins, the well-known integrin inhibitors. We also have shown that C-type lectins, phospholipases A2 and Kunitz-type proteinase inhibitors also display anti-adhesive activity by specifically targeting different integrins. Several of these peptides, exhibiting various pharmacological activities such as anti-tumor, anti-angiogenic and/or pro-apoptotic effects, are currently investigated for their therapeutic potential.
We recently started new collaborations with the "Institut National de Recherche et d'Analyse Physico-chimique (INRAP)" (Tunis, Tunisia) and the "Laboratoire de Pharmacognosie" (Monastir, Tunisia) to investigate the presence of anti-integrin compounds in extracts from plants of the Tunisian traditional pharmacopeia.
New drug design and mechanism of action of anti-tubulin. (Pr V Peyrot)
The design and synthesis of tubulin assembly inhibitors is an attractive strategy for the development of anticancer therapeutic agents with antiproliferative activity. In this context we are interested in the evaluation of new antitumor activities of caulerpenyne and combretastatin A4 derivatives based on their association to tubulin and/or microtubules:

Back by popular demand! The Shop Local Holiday Passport is in its second year. The way the program works is that customers are given passports to be filled out. Each $10 spent at a participating business earns the customer one stamp on their passport. Each passport has room for 10 stamps. A customer is only able to fill a maximum of four passports (up to $400) per purchase. Once their passport is completed the customer fills out their information and drops the passport off in the store or at the Business Innovation Centre. The passports then become ballots and the Chamber of Commerce will draw for winners who will receive prizes of McMurray Money.
The first place winner gets $1000, second place $500 and third gets $250 in McMurray Money which they can then spend at participating local businesses. Last year the Municipality even purchased $10,000 worth of McMurray Money for their volunteers, all of which was redeemed at the participating stores. The Shop Local passport will run from October 17 until December 10th. We draw for the winner on December 15th.
For a business to participate in the program, it is $100 for Chamber member businesses and $200 for non-members. The non-member fee includes a one-year complimentary Chamber membership. Last year we tracked over $55,000 that was spent at our local businesses! The more participation we get from Local Business, the more money will be spent within the community.
Customers who want to start collecting stamps need to visit a participating vendor to pick up a passport, and then start shopping!
Current vendors signed up for the program include:
The Fort McMurray Chamber of Commerce hosts several events throughout the year. Click here for pictures of our Business and Community Awards Reception, our Duffet n' Divot Golf Tournament, our monthly Networking Luncheons and our Small Business Week Celebrations.

I have had the good fortune to travel throughout the United States and Europe. I am reasonable in my expectations and believe you get what you pay for. I feel it is my responsibility to warn anyone who is thinking of staying here of the experience I had. I hope to avoid anyone else from having the same experiences.
I traveled to Miami Beach for a conference and to check out local colleges with my son. I stumbled across this accommodation on trip advisor and based on reviews decided to give it a try.
Pros: Ray is very nice when making the reservation and free continental breakfasts are provided upon arrival.
Cons: 1. When making the reservation you don't know what room you are getting. I asked several times and the response was always "all rooms are equal quality." Ray told me later that he placed us in his premium room and didn't charge us for it. There was no mention of different fees for different room on the website.
2. Have to pay in cash or check, no credit cards.
3. The building is very old and smells it! Has that musky-moldy smell that a good cleaning would take care of!
4. BEWARE: you will be hit for fees once you get to the room. For example, Ray left a pink laminated paper saying I would have to pay him $100 deposit for the parking permit. He also said that I owed him $10 a day for the futon as it was considered a separate sleeping space. None of that information was every communicated to me prior to the trip, on the website or on our invoice.
5, Ray's reaction to my questions were unprofessional and rude. For example, when questioned about a reduced rate for the day the water was being shut off he became EXTREMELY hostile and belligerent. He didn't care that we could not use the toilet!
6. The room and furnishings are very outdated and in need of a cleaning. The room itself was dirty and needed a deep cleaning too. The carpet was worn and dirty and the bathroom had a great deal of grime.
7. The parking is ridiculous. Although provided a permit to park, we were not told that the parking was only for the street. As a matter of fact, Ray said that they would call him first before towing any car, but that was not the case! Our car was towed at the tune of $300. When I questioned Ray he again, became defensive and belligerent! He was so out of hand I had to tell him to leave our room!
Overall, the lack of professionalism of Ray bordered on harassment. I felt mislead regarding the parking not to mention all the other fees he sprung on us when we arrived. There are way too many hotels to choose from in Miami Beach (for the same price) to stay here. It was a terrible experience and I would not recommend it at all.

Saul Bellow was easily angered, prone to argument, and palpably vulnerable to criticism, but according to his son, his young father was also emotionally accessible, often soft, and possessed of the ability to laugh at the world's folly and at himself. Part of Greg Bellow's bond with his father was grounded in that softness, in humor, and in the set of egalitarian social values he followed.
Saul Bellow's accessibility and lightheartedness waned as he aged, and his social views hardened, although he was, fundamentally, no less vulnerable. His earlier tolerance for opposing viewpoints all but disappeared, and his ability to laugh at himself faded. These changes eroded much of the common ground between Bellow and his son and taxed their relationship so sorely that Greg often worried whether it would survive. But theirs were differences of mind, not of heart.
This memoir gives equal weight to the young Saul Bellow - the rebellious, irreverent, and ambitious young writer - who raised Greg, and the older Saul Bellow, famous and fiercely private. It paints a very human portrait of a man who hid behind parabolic stories, jokes, metaphors, and partial truths, never letting the public see his true self.

A large-hearted son
Absolutely. This is a fascinating and deeply moving story of a relationship that might easily have failed, but for the loving endurance and perseverance of Greg Bellow, Saul Bellow's eldest son. As a mature man, a father himself and a clinical psychologist, Dr. Bellow writes with a distinct authorial voice which bears little resemblance to that of his famous father. It is clearly his own! Greg Bellow's capacity for self reflection are remarkable.
I can not think of another book like this one.
The aspect of the book that seemed to elude the author, but seemed evident to me, is the importance of Greg Bellow to Saul, the man. His son's loving attachment, his strong intellect and independent point of view, and his deepening psychological insights must have been vital to his own well-being over the decades. I like to imagine his silent, heartfelt gratitude for the gift of having such a son.
Yes, of course it was Mr Bellow's last visit with his bedridden and soon-to-die father. The last words he shouted over the phone to him, weeks later, were most touching: "I love you, Sweetheart!"
I was disappointed by the narrator's slightly breathless, saccharine interpretation. I think the story deserved a stronger and more straightforward empathic reading.

Hey guys!
It's been a couple of days since my last post, so I wanted to apologise for that – I was pretty busy with work, and I had a couple of things on so I didn't have much spare time.
That being said, I've got quite a few posts up my sleeve ready to work on, one of them being this edition of 5 Favourites – my five favourite beauty products at the moment!
Poudre Signée De Chanel – illuminating powder
This illuminator by Chanel is my absolute favourite illuminator/highlighter. As you can tell by the photo, I've used a lot of it. It's kind of expensive (close to $90 AUD I believe) so I'm unsure if I'll be repurchasing this once it runs out, as much as I want to. I don't know how I'll ever be able to replace it with a different illuminator, but we'll see.
It's hard to get a good photo of it, being close to empty, but the colour is so gorgeous. If you have any recommendations for a similar powder for a cheaper price, please let me know!
Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade – Soft Brown
I've always had a love/hate relationship with my eyebrows. Either they look perfect, or they look awful. There's no in between. Luckily, since purchasing Anastasia's Dipbrow Pomade a couple weeks ago, they're looking better each time. This product has honestly changed the brow game for me, and while I still need a bit of practice and to work on my technique, I'm ecstatic by how well this has been working for me so far.
Dior Créme De Rose Smoothing Plumping Lip Balm
For somebody who has as ridiculously dry lips as me, this balm by Dior is a life saver. It's made my lips so much softer, and the improvement is noticeable almost instantly. I use this every night before I go to sleep, and wake up with lips I never used to think I would be able to have. I've used a fair bit of this, but for me, this is a must have and I'll be replacing it the minute it's empty.
Youngblood Luminous Créme Blush in Taffeta
Firstly, I really like the package of this blush. It's plain and simple, and so easy to take with you on the go. Not that you'll really need to retouch this blush – it goes on so easily, and just a tiny bit can be enough to have your skin glowing a rosy pink. This colour is absolutely beautiful, and this is my absolute favourite cream blush that I've tried.
Lush Lip Scrub in Popcorn
This is the scrub I use every night before applying my Dior balm – and let me tell you, it tastes delicious. I have a couple of these lip scrubs by Lush, but Popcorn is definitely my favourite. I haven't tried another brand's scrub, so I can't compare, but I do know that these work wonders on my lips and get all the dead skin off and leave them soft and smooth.
I hope you guys enjoyed this edition of 5 Favourites. Let me know your top 5 beauty products; or, if you've tried any of these, let me know what you thought of them! I love hearing your feedback.

Spamtraps are webapplications trying to flood spammers e-mail databases whith useless information. They try to "feed" and "trap" e-mail harvesters by generating pages filled with invalid e-mail addresses and links pointing to the spamtrap itself. If the harvester follows these links it collects more and more useless address and so the spammers database will be filled with junk.
Exposure Edit
It is a widely used way to expose spamtraps to simply refresh the pages and compare the results. Most spamtraps generate random HTML code by every download, so if the versions differ we can guess that we have found a trap. Spamtraps can be blacklisted too.

Sassa and Social Development Minister Bathabile Dlamini were embroiled in a controversy after the Net1/Cash Paymaster Services (CPS) contract expired with no plan in place for a takeover.
CPS, a subsidiary of Net1 has the contract to distribute welfare grant payments to about 17 million beneficiaries.
Following a Constitutional Court ruling in March, CPS signed an addendum to its existing contract with Sassa, which extended the contract for 12 months to March 31, next year.
In its ruling on the matter, the Constitutional Court said it and a team of independent and technical advisers would closely monitor CPS and Sassa during the next 12 months. In 2014, the court had declared the contract invalid.
Dlamini and Sassa chief executive Thokozani Magwaza told Parliament last week that they were in negotiation with Sapo, but would only give details later on the nature of the contract. Magwaza said that they were still to decide whether Sapo would be the primary contractor or not.
Sassa will have to submit a progress report in the Constitutional Court next month on plans to pay social grants after the current Net1/CPS contract expires next year.
Cwele told Parliament, during his department's budget vote, on Wednesday, that Sapo would be able to take over the grants payments.
His position contradicts that of Dlamini, who told the portfolio committee on social development two weeks ago, it would not be ready to take over grants for the next five years.
Read also: Net1 inks addendum with Sassa
She said it would need another R6 billion for the new grant contract of five years before Sassa is ready to take over.
Cwele said on Wednesday that Sapo was on a sound footing after it faced serious financial challenges. He said a new board has managed to stabilise Sapo.
"Sapo is ready to assist Sassa to take over the payment of social grants as directed by the court," said Cwele.
Other parties also supported Cwele and said the involvement of Sapo was necessary.
Sibongile Nkomo of the IFP said they were happy that Sapo was showing stability.
She said they supported the full take-over of social grants by Sapo. They did not want another contract with Net1/CPS following the fiasco in the past few months.
Nkomo said that the contract to distribute grants should have been given to Sapo a long time ago, and not Net1/CPS.
Cwele also told Parliament that the work on data costs was continuing. He said Icasa had done work on the matter and the full results would be known in the next few years. He said Icasa agreed with the public that data prices were too high.
According to the Statistics South Africa report this year the ICT sector contributes 3 percent to the gross domestic product.
He said following his instruction to Icasa last year to investigate the data costs, it said it would finalise its work in the next two to three years.
