What Do You Think This Is Made Of?
Decorating By Justbeck101 Updated 2 Feb 2009 , 3:50am by BeeBoos-8599_
Buttercream or fondant could make that but it's hard to guess what it's exactly made of.
I was thinking fondant too, but do you think she used a mold or just hand modeled it?
May have used a mould?
When I saw the 1st pic, I thought chocolate, but then I thought the 2nd looked like BC.
I wonder if there is anyway to mold BC like in a choco mold?
The details are so fine, though. That throws me off.
Another idea - maybe RI in a chocolate mold?
My clumsy hands can't imagine it's carved.
If it is carved - all I can say is WOW!
okay, it's really good, so it could be a very skilled person who molded or piped it. I thought they may have gotten a ferrari horse and molded it themselves. But, then I looked at the horse, and it's not identical. Close, but not identical. So, I think someone used a prancing horse mold and altered it a bit to make it more ferrari like... That's what I would do.
I found the page of the original decorator, Sweet Unique. http://www.sweetunique.co.uk/corporate_cakes.html
There is a link marked - 'Ask a question about this cake' , if you want to try asking directly.
I did ask her about the cake, but I did not receive a response. The first is a cake, but the second I don't think is edible. I just found the pic and I was thinking it would give you a closer look to see maybe how it could be made. I have an idea and I am going to try it out in a few weeks. I will post the results
I make "toppers" like this for my cakes all of the time. I make them and mail them to customers who want to decorate thier childrens cakes and do not have the decorating ability. I normally use fondant or gumpaste depending on what I am modeling. If you want to check out my site it is www.beebooconfections.citymax.com and click on the fondart page. I have made what I refer to as Fondart toppers for professional decorators in the past. As for the horse, i did one that is on my site. I used fondant that was rolled thicker than you would to put it on a cake. I then used a pencil drawing on parchment and traced the main shape and to add muscles leg joints etc. I then use several clay tools to help sculpt the object and petal dust to create shadows etc. Sometimes i use RI to add demensional items such as a mane on a horse. I hope this helps.
That is funny because those were almost my exact thoughts! I was thinking I could just use a template and roll the fondant thick and chisel the details!
Thank you so much
You are VERY welcome. I like to help when i can.

You can never move forth in life without the constant support of the education. It is one of the most important facets of everybody's life. We have to constantly strive harder to move forth in life. There are numerous things in life which holds very important place. We need to over power a lot of hurdles in life in order to achieve success. The significance of education can be deemed as a beacon of brightness in the dark alleys of life. There are numerous things which need to be fulfilled in order to live a contented life filled with happiness.
The gift of knowledge plays a very important role in the life of every individual. We always tend to depend on the safe support of our family and career. A prosperous career can only be achieved by the sturdy support of the education. You can only rely on its awakening power to give life to all your dreams and fascination without much of an effort. Whenever the need arises for our child's well being and life we always search for the finest things. Similarly we are always in search for a Top School in Noidawhich can provide premier education to our kids.
Currently there is Greater Noida Schools Admission going on in the Delhi NCR and a lot of parents would be striving harder to secure a seat for their children. One school which has garnered impeccable reputation in the academic field is the Aster Public School. They have acquired exemplary set of academicians from the industry. Their proficient teaching staff not only sticks with the dismal way of curriculum teaching but they also add a new interactive flair to the subjects. While guiding the students it is very relevant to keep the creative streak intact in the teaching in order to maximize interest of the students.
The Aster group of Institutions was started with one aim of providing education to one and all without any barriers. Keeping this thought intact they have started numerous schools and colleges providing primary, secondary, senior secondary and higher education as well. They not only provide exceptional teaching in the field of arts, commerce and science but also in B.ED and M.ED as well. Your child can not only meet the goals of their life but also would be able to fulfill the wishes of their loved ones. Therefore, don't take any chances in fulfilling all the dreams and wishes of your kid.

Benvolio the Benevolent
Benvolio is Romeo's cousin in the famous play, Romeo and Juliet. Benvolio balances Romeo's melodrama with his practical and kind personality. In a way, Benvolio is a representation of the audience in the play because he usually reacts as we would
Benvolio's Actions
From the very beginning (act 1 scene 1), Benvolio is actively acting as a peacekeeper. Throughout the play, he repeatedly tries to keep the peace but is unsuccessful.
Benvolio's Feelings
While Romeo's parents are only surfacedly interested in what has been bothering him, through this dialogue it's apparent that Benvolio truly cares about what is upsetting his friend. It is he who waits for Romeo and questions him.
In this scene, Benvolio is trying to convince Romeo to go to the Capulet ball. He thinks that going and meeting new girls will help his hopeless friend.

How to calculate a cost based on a number of days attendance selectedAsked by simmsy21 on April 17, 2015 at 02:19 PM
Hi there. I have a form that needs to calculate a cost based on a number of days attendance selected. It's based on a number of conditions, this totals the number of days selected and works out the cost (1 day is £7, 2 days is £14 up to 5 days, but this has a discount and is £33 not £35).
It all works well when 1, 2 or 3 days are selected but not when 4 or 5 are. I have to click in and out of another field (the ' Total number of days selected:' field) for then it to work properly (ie i know the calculation works, it's just not refreshing until i select another field).
Can you advise please?
If this doesn't make sense, please let me know and i'll explain more. the Jotform is stated below.
Could you please check this cloned version of your form: http://form.jotformpro.com/form/51065749146964 and let us know if this is how the calculation should work?
I've added another field to calculate the amount that needs to be paid based on this description and then used the calculation tool to add the 4% fee for the transaction.
If this works as expected, feel free to clone this form to your account so you can inspect it further. If not, please let us know how it should work so we can make the necessary adjustments.
Hi there. Thank you so much, this works perfectly now. Can you please advise what's changed so that i can learn from this.
Many thanks
JotForm Support
After inspecting both forms I found what are differences between the forms. My colleague in his form did following:
1. He added one more field that is hidden to calculate the amount that needs to be paid based on this description and then used the calculation tool to add the 4% fee for the transaction.
2. Few conditions were changed in order to achieve good calculations.
- Conditions on field Total number of days were changed:
Those changed conditions are applied to new field 'Total'
- Calculation in Calculations Widget was changed:
Hope this will help. Let us know if you need further assistance.
thank you so much for your help, it's very much appreciated!

RMSCookieConnector - Using Cookies in J2ME
By: Michael Juntao Yuan and Ju Long Emailed: 1768 times Printed: 2515 times
Latest comments
RMSCookieConnector class stores cookies in an RMS record
store. An RMS record store is accessed by its name, rather than reference, and
can persist between soft resets, or reboots. That ensures an old session remains
valid when a user later returns to an application after previously quitting it.
Considering most people use their mobile information devices for many different
tasks simultaneously, cookie persistence is a desired feature.
Remember, RFC 2109 allows us to separate cookies for different sites by
examining the
domain attribute associated with each cookie.
However, implementing the full specifications in RFC 2109 requires rather
complex string parsing and proves quite expensive in terms of memory footprint
and CPU usage. Instead of being fully specification-compliant, we decided to use
a simpler approach: We simply discard all the attributes information
accompanying the
set-cookie header and associate each cookie with
the real host it comes from. We derive the host name from a call to
When we connect to that host again, only cookies from the same host will be
We store these cookies and their host names in an RMS record store. An RMS
record store only has a one-dimensional structure with sequentially ordered data
fields. Starting from field number zero, we store cookies in even-numbered
fields and associated host names in the odd numbered fields that directly follow
each cookie field. The cookie storage and retrieval code is illustrated below: // Get cookies from the connection and store them with host names.
static void getCookie(HttpConnection c) throws IOException {
RecordStore rs = RecordStore.openRecordStore(cookieStoreName, true);
// "While" loop to iterate through headers and get cookies
// in to cValue strings.
/* Start loop. */
// Write the cookie into the cookie store.
int newID = rs.addRecord(cValue.getBytes(), 0, cValue.length());
// We set the domain default to the current server.
String dValue = c.getHost();
if ( dValue == null ) {
// If there is no valid domain,
// we do not keep the cookie.
} else {
// All upper case for easy comparison in the future.
dValue = dValue.toUpperCase();
// Write the domain into the cookie store.
rs.addRecord(dValue.getBytes(), 0, dValue.length());
/* End loop. */
// Fetch cookies from record store and set into the connection header.
static void addCookie(HttpConnection c, String url) throws Exception {
String domain;
// Chunk of code to parse domain from input url.
StringBuffer buff = new StringBuffer();;
RecordStore rs = RecordStore.openRecordStore(cookieStoreName, true);
RecordEnumeration re = rs.enumerateRecords(null, null, false);
String cookie = "", cookieDomain = "";
// Iterate through the cookie record store and find cookies
// with domain matching the current URL.
// isCookie is used to tell whether the current record is
// a cookie or an associated domain.
boolean isCookie = true;
while ( re.hasNextElement() ) {
if ( isCookie ) {
cookie = new String(re.nextRecord());
} else {
cookieDomain = new String(re.nextRecord());
// Cookies are valid for sub-domains.
if ( domain.endsWith( cookieDomain ) ) {
buff.append( cookie );
buff.append("; ");
isCookie = !isCookie;
// If we do have cookies to send, set the composed string into
// "cookie" header.
String cookieStr = buff.toString();
if ( cookieStr == null || cookieStr.equals("") ) {
// Ignore.
} else {
c.setRequestProperty( "cookie", cookieStr );
// Get cookies from the connection and store them with host names.
Following the examples, you can associate each cookie with more properties, such as URL path and expiration time, in real-world applications when such needs arise.

Getting Off By Not Getting Off: Women Fake Orgasms To Have Actual Orgasms
This study provides an entirely new meaning to "fake it till you make it."
According to new research published in the Journal of Sexual Archives (it's a thing), women may be faking orgasms for their own pleasure.
While women have typically been thought to pretend with the big finish (over 80 percent of females admit to this, BTW) to help with their partner's ego, a survey of 481 sexually active heterosexual females not in serious relationships indicates that women also fake it for "Elevated Arousal — a woman's attempt to increase her own arousal through faking orgasm."
Sure, those age-old reasons like "ending sex" and "fear and insecurity" are listed too, but this is major; now faking an orgasm just might help you achieve one.
Time calls it the "power of positive thinking," and we agree.
You may not be able to will one to happen, but at least this way you're actively trying, right?
Excitement all around.

For the first time in almost a decade, a new Halo sustains a healthy, active player base. Josh Holmes, 343 Industries studio head, says Halo 5: Guardians' player retention is the best since Halo 3. While each Halo iteration sells millions, both Halo: Reach and Halo 4saw its player population nose dive a few months after launch. Halo 5 lives post launch because of the one characteristic many multiplayer games lack: skill gaps.
Developers roll out regular, sometimes free, content updates for their games, but content alone won't satisfy your player base. Halo 4 released regular map packs with free Spartan Ops missions every week. Raptr, a once console gameplay tracker, conducted a case study on Halo 4 and the hours logged during Spartan Ops releases. Despite the free missions each week, they failed to stop the plummeting playtime. In December, a month after launch, Halo 4's weekly playtime dropped from 400,000 hours to just below 168,000 by the end of January. While a drop-off makes sense post holidays, a month later it plummeted again to just above 110,000 hours. Regardless of the combination of free content and paid DLC, the total hours played dropped faster than in Halo: Reach.
Competitive games like DOTA 2, League of Legends and Counter Strike: Global Offensive, sees stability and even growth in their population because of competitive skill gaps. High skill ceiling games separate average players from the best players, but it also encourages practice. No one wants to get worse at a game, and so they return to - at the very least - perform to their ability. There's an addictive quality in competing, and an even greater feeling when competing at a high level.
Competition breeds player investment, yet it won't matter if the game lacks in quality. I don't attribute much to review scores or aggregate score websites like Metacritic, but they do mean something. Positive reviews for Halo 4 and Halo: Reach at least indicates a positive reception at launch. I can't quantify the quality of either game or even Halo 4's post launch content. All I can say is: I played most of Halo 4's DLC and I enjoyed it, but I didn't play between content releases. To keep players invested, games require both a combination of exciting content and challenging mechanics.
The video games press operates in a doomed state. As the video game industry grows, the rate for writers shrinks. On average, a writer earns $150 per article. A feature length article with interviews takes days or weeks to complete. Interview transcription alone takes hours to sift through. If a writer somehow manages to publish one feature article every other business day, the rate means an annual salary of $19,500. You can compare the near poverty rates of many press outlets with this crowdsourced Google Doc spreadsheet.
One well edited spreadsheet later, I've decided to abandon a career in games press. It's a scary, uncomfortable decision I never wanted to make. I worked for years to become a permanent member of the press, yet industry circumstance forces me to adapt. Writers accept the criminal rates for the experience and hope for a better opportunity. But as the spreadsheet shows, a better opportunity doesn't mean a sustainable career choice.
You can't blame one game as the catalyst for turning the Halo story into a convoluted mess. Halo 4 introduces the Didact as the new antagonist, yet his inconsequential actions create a circular story. In Halo 3, the Flood army changes sides more times than the Italians during World War 2. Regardless of what happens, somewhere in the galaxy, Covenant and Prometheans forces await the Master Chief's arrival. They wait for you to shoot them.
Halo 5: Guardians re-threatens the entire galaxy because we need a reason to shoot aliens. Not much motivates a faceless, robot-like character to risk his life to save everyone, again. To push Master Chief aside, 343 Industries brought in new characters - Spartan Locke and the rest of Fireteam Osiris. But even four new major characters can't define urgency in Halo 5's story. It doesn't matter why Master Chief and Spartan Locke shoot the Prometheans and Covenant - it stopped mattering. Halo 5: Guardians adds long overdue adjustments to movement and weapons to renovate what matters most: gunplay. And the evolution of Halo's core gameplay will last longer than any convoluted space opera about saving the galaxy.

If a cell phone battery dies or car won't start, then she's watching the right film. She guided me through the first scene of Until Dawn, making the decisions as I controlled the characters. Instead of investigating the strange noise on the branching path, she directed me to the path of footprints. Until Dawn's deliberate use of horror tropes means it doesn't demand logic, it encourages idiocy.
Each character's fate depends on whether or not you want them to fulfill their horror film destiny. The meathead jock doesn't need to die in a bout of pointless heroics - unless you want him to. Each decision affects the characters, yet the decisions don't affect the story. Regardless of who lives or dies in Until Dawn, the murderer's identity and the storyline remains the same. Until Dawn's thrill in controlling the fate of endangered teenagers excites curiosity to see alternate outcomes. But it's the second playthrough that exposes the meager impact of the supposed pivotal story points.
Original Review: June 28, 2015
1-up mushrooms mean nothing in modern Super Mario games. If you run out of lives, a negligible 'Game Over' flashes on screen. A meaningless lives counter, like many other Nintendo ideas, shows their stubbornness to change and adapt. It's why their hardware still uses Friend Codes and lacks digital license ownership.
When Splatoon, Nintendo's online third person-shooter, lacks basic party systems, region filters and voice chat, I can't I'm surprised. But just like a pointless lives counter, I grudgingly deal with the unintelligible multiplayer design. Splatoon drips with imagination when you customize Inklings and spread ink everywhere, making the unnecessary restrictions an even greater blunder.

Pubwan and community planning
by [http://www.wikiworld.com/wiki/index.php/LorraineLee Lorraine Lee]

Thank you for turning to this page. Pubwan is open content data mining, among other things. Community planning is a discipline involving architects, urban planners, policy wonks, citizen activists and other protesters. Pubwan community planning, if there were such a thing, would seek to create arrangements of things and perhaps people in space, and provide the public with excruciatingly detailed free maps of that space. Free, of course, means you don't have to pay. Whether that space would have an economy is anyone's guess. The following is a mere suggestion as to how such a space might be organized. It needs much refinement.
Phaze I Market Survey
A. Survey of available real estate
As with any survey, one goal is to accumulate as much information as possible, as fast as possible. Ideally, one might also wish to incorporate pubwan goals, such as keeping all derivative metadata in the public domain, and building easily implemented data mining tools, also for the public domain.
Other goals for the real estate market survey can vary with specific project goals. The survey is a means to the end of constructing as efficient a market basket of real properties as will fit a project's land acquisition budget. Here are a few suggestions that have occurred to me:
Maximize number of political jurisdictions.
This would include cities, counties, states, countries, etc. Some projects would be better off minimizing or ignoring this factor. I like the idea of a multi-jurisdictional project because:
More jurisdictions means more data collecting opportunities
While it means more potential arrows aimed at the project, it also means more arrows are needed to shoot down the entire project.
Since the first pubwan project has yet to be realized, it might be best at this point in time to assume any project is better than no project.
Maximize geographic spread.
Again, more points of contact with the world outside the project, more information.
Concentrate on developed properties.
This would also be counterproductive for some types of projects. At its core, though, pubwan is about public domain data mining, not land development.
B. Construct detailed zoning database
It might be bad PR for a project's first publicized moves to be requests for zoning variances. Then again, that's pretty much how all projects start, and there's probably no way around it.
C. Capital asset survey
D. Consumer goods survey
For both personal property surveys (C and D), it might be more sustainable to concentrate on used (even discarded) things.
E. Consumer and investor interest survey
The constituency for a pubwan project is everyone, but as with any project, ideals have to answer to economics. So such a project probably won't get off the ground without investors, and won't be self-sustaining without customers. My own biases lead me to want to minimize the role of both, but even more important is making both happy.
Investor interests
Investments can take many forms other than money. As with all things pubwan, the more information, the better. An investor interest form should be a detailed inventory of assets. As a matter of principle, the information contained in such a report should be treated as a gift, not an investment. It should also be released into the public domain. It is of course imperative to make this absolutely clear to prospective investors. The fish-bowl mentality of pubwan is not for everyone.
Ideally, people investing in pubwan projects will also be active participants. A project has a fiduciary duty to add value to investments. I believe this can be done reliably, if not easily, for an investor whose investment consists of tangible assets, and who intends to live or work in a pubwan development.
Consumer interests
This survey should be taken by "charter customers", and should be entirely optional, for obvious privacy reasons. It could also be a detailed inventory, in this case of items intended for consumption within a future pubwan community. Participation might facilitate space planning to some extent.
Phaze II Modeling and Engineering
These two activities must be done together, and full bore open communication between these two activities is absolutely essential.
In this context, this would be the making of the blueprint for product placement, in the Phaze IV sense.
Any and all nonproprietary techniques can be used for this task. Here are but a few:

All site surveys and construction blueprints should be in the public domain, along with bills of materials, and everything else related to the design and construction of a pubwan development.
Phaze III Construction
This is a subject I know almost nothing about, yet it's the most important step. Suggestions are of course always welcome.
Phaze IV Product Placement
Here, "product" refers to any and all items listed in the investor and consumer interest surveys. The results of the modeling in Phaze II might serve as a guide to product placement.
Here, product placement refers simply to the placement of products at locations in space. Nothing (necessarily) to do with marketing tactics.
Phaze V Resettlement of persons
Charter customers and investors already have a place in a pubwan development, which may or may not be a place to live. Hopefully the project budget will allow for substantially more residential units, and a fair amount of industry, too. It would be especially interesting to launch with several "turnkey" businesses or business-like operations designed on open information models. One example would be a [http://www.brightidea.com/ob_view_idea.asp?idea_id={3544CABF-3E00-4935-9488-4793C42D21D0}&bucket_id= Brightidea™ Food Center].

AN insulin-dependent teenager died because her parents failed to make a single lifesaving phone call to doctors, a court has heard.
Richard Edward, 49, and Debra Edward, 52, faced the Supreme Court today.
They pleaded guilty to one count each of causing the death of their daughter Dawn, 14, by criminal neglect.
Dawn, who was a triplet and one of the couple's five children, died in her family's Hackham West home on August 9, 2009.
Her death was the subject of a long-running police investigation, and the Edwards were charged - originally with manslaughter - in January last year.
Today, prosecutor Carmen Matteo said the Edwards' crime was not one of denying their child food or fluids.
"Dawn suffered from Type One diabetes and was insulin dependent," she said.
"Her condition required careful management, checking of her blood glucose levels and administration of her diet.
"She died of hyperglycaemia, or high blood glucose levels, and dehydration.
"The prosecution case is that each of the defendants failed to obtain medical assistance for Dawn in the week before her death, when she was obviously sick."
Ms Matteo said that, by their pleas, the couple had admitted their failure was "a gross departure" from the standard of care expected of parents.
"The step that could have reasonably have been expected to be taken here amounted to the making of a telephone call," she said.
"The treatment Dawn required was simply the administration of intravenous fluids."
Ms Matteo said Richard and Dawn Edward had varying degrees of intellectual disability, as did their children.
She said the family had past contact with Families SA, and that Richard Edward was known to dislike the department's involvement.
Mrs Matteo said the court would have to decide the moral culpability of each parent, relevant to their intellectual disability and the degree to which they knew, or ought to have known, the risk posed to Dawn by her condition.
She said both parents had been educated about the "danger signs" of Type One diabetes, following an earlier incident in which Dawn had been hospitalised.
"In the week before her death, Dawn had a seizure-like episode, fairly constant vomiting, she fell out of bed and had difficulty communicating to the point she had to use sign language," she said.
"That, in and of itself, had to communicate the extent to which their child was very sick and very weak."
Justin Wickens, for Richard Edward, agreed his client had "resisted" Families SA - but said he did so at the request of his "house-proud" wife.
"He admits he should have asked for assistance ... (he resisted) out of weakness on his part and acquiescence to the wishes of his wife," he said.
Richard and Debra Edward cried in the dock as Mr Wickens said his client "wrote off" Dawn's suffering as a bout of gastroenteritis.
"He failed his daughter because all he needed to do was make a telephone call," he said.
"He failed to appreciate how serious things were ... he hoped that the situation would resolve itself, and that hope was ill-founded.
"If Mr Edward had his time again, that phone call would have been made earlier in the week ... the great tragedy here is that this was a very easily-averted situation."
Russel Cole, for Debra Edwards, said his client had an IQ of between 60 and 61, as well as health concerns.
Justice Kevin Nicholson said he had a difficult task ahead of him.
"A young child died through want of a phone call," he said.
"One only needs to look at the photographs (of Dawn) to see this child needed urgent medical attention.
"But that's me looking at the photos, not Mr and Mrs Edward, and that's where the rub lies."
He will sentence the duo on a date to be set.

Luncheon for Gilda's Club
The 9th Annual "Movers. Shakers. Difference Makers" luncheon Sept. 12 at the Palm Restaurant in Atlantic City was a sellout for the ninth consecutive year, raising more than $60,000 for Gilda's Club South Jersey.
"The Palm feels privileged to be able to provide our services as the host for such a wonderful charity event," said Palm General Manager Paul Sandler, who also served as co-chair and donated restaurant services for the luncheon.
Cape Bank was named the recipient of the organization's 2013 "Good Guy/Good Gal" Award. The Cape Bank Charitable Foundation presented a $25,000 donation to Gilda's Club South Jersey.
Gilda's Club South Jersey paid a special tribute to Jim and Patti Lees, naming the couple honorary co-chairs for the event. Joining the Lees and Sandler as co-chairs were Masterpiece Advertising President Phyllis Lacca and Bill McCullough of McCullough Models.
Cape Regional pledge
Cape Counseling Services has pledged $50,000 to support the new Behavioral Health Unit at Cape Regional Medical Center in Cape May Court House. Greg Speed, CEO of Cape Counseling Services, presented the first installment of $25,000 on Sept. 12 to Joanne Carrocino, president and CEO at Cape Regional Medical Center and Deborah Baehser, vice president of patient services.
Speed thanked Dr. Domenic Coletta, Emergency Department medical director at Cape Regional Medical Center and Baehser for their advocacy and commitment to improving psychiatric services for the residents of Cape May County. The Behavioral Health Unit is a five-bed area, four of which are separated by a partial wall and curtain. The fifth bay is a private room that, with a doctor's order, can provide necessary seclusion and safety. There is a nurses' station, patient restroom and consultation room in the unit.
"The Unit has clearly been a tremendous enhancement to the way crisis psychiatric services are provided," Speed said.
Foundation scholarships
The Marty Wilson Jr. Art & Music Foundation awarded Justin Peruzzi, of Northfield, and Jody Salani, of Mays Landing, as the winners of the foundation's 2013 Art & Music Scholarship. Each received $1,500 at the Foundation's annual Harvest Brunch fundraiser on Sept. 29th at Quaremba Hall, adjacent to St. Michael's Church in Atlantic City.

Binary quantile regression: A Bayesian approach based on the asymmetric Laplace density
In this article, we develop a Bayesian method for quantile regression in the case of dichotomous response data. The frequentist approach to this type of regression has proven problematic in both optimizing the objective function and making inference on the regression parameters. By accepting additional distributional assumptions on the error terms, the Bayesian method proposed sets the problem in a parametric framework in which these problems are avoided, i.e. it is relatively straightforward to calculate point predictions of the estimators with their corresponding credible intervals. To test the applicability of the method, we ran two Monte-Carlo experiments and applied it to Horowitz' (1993) often studied work-trip mode choice dataset. Compared to previous estimates for the latter dataset, the method proposed interestingly leads to a different economic interpretation.

Marcy Roberts-Wetzel purchased this condo in 2012
The Royal Garden at Waikiki is located in a very safe, quiet & peaceful setting in Waikiki on Olohana Steet. Olohana in Hawaiian means 'rare'. This is a truely rare and elegant building built to showcase beautiful marble flooring, marble walls, marble columns, gold leaf crown molding, exquisite gold leaf mirrors, gorgeous chandeliers, hand painted ceiling frescos throughout the Front Foyer & Lobby areas. The grand marbled entrance from the sidewalk is spectacular, the gold revolving door side valet entrance & the marbled elevator foyer with marble accents is done with gorgeous European styling. The building is located in a lovely quiet & peaceful neighborhood in Waikiki on a residential street away from the hustle & bustle of typical Waikiki Condo buildings & far away from street noise, yet only 1/2 block walking distance to all the action. There is fabulous dining out choices of all price ranges, so close by the condo that you can walk to everything there is to see and do in Waikiki while here on vacation. Our condo is so centrally located, many choose to not incur the cost of renting a car for their entire trip, since everything is within walking distance. Guests can rent cars right here in Waikiki for the day or two that they might want to leave magical Waikiki.
The outstanding views from the wall of windows & sliding door windows & 18 foot long balcony in our condo features amazing views of the Pacific Ocean, Ala Wai Canal, City Lights, Ko'olau Mountain Range, Diamond Head Crater, partial Ala Wai Golf Course views and the famous Fort de Russy Beach Park steps away. You can take a short stroll through Fort de Russy Park on your way to Fort de Russy Beach Park, Duke Kahanamoku Beach Park & Waikiki Beach. Enjoy the pleasant Hawaiian tropical breezes blowing into our privately owned high floor condo or turn on the A/C, if you prefer. Our condo provides plenty of privacy even with the amazing wall of windows with privacy tinting on the floor to ceiling windows & with no other condo looking directly into our condo, different from many other condos in Waikiki. There is a brand new laundry room that offers free use of 8 washers & 8 dryers, as well as a free brand new Fitness Center featuring cardiovascular & resistance equipment as well as free weights. Enjoy the 2 free Weber BBQ's with dining tables outside, lounging chairs, chairs & tables with umbrellas, 2 free saunas, his/her poolside bathrooms & showers, & the gorgeous lawn area at the lovely garden-style pool area. There is a restaurant 1/2 block walk from RGW where you can eat a nice meal. There are bellhops/porters to help you with your luggage & make arrangements for a ride to airport & concierge services are there to help you find your way around. There is valet parking (surcharge) with secured covered parking, if you decide to rent a car. There are plenty of areas to park your car with many price ranges offered. There are 24-hour security guards available for anything you may need from them. The staff are gracious, professional, attentive & friendly. Once you have stayed at the Royal Garden at Waikiki you will feel so at home in the elegant surroundings & close proximity to everything you will continue to make it your home away from home on future trips.
Stay Dates - June 2 to June 11, 2014
"Good morning Henry and Marcy,
We checked in around 8pm last night. Everything went smoothly and we love your unit so much! It's so beautifully done and decorated with more then what we could imagined. You and your wife paid attention to all the small details to give us a fantastic vacation. The unit is totally clean and organized. We feel like queen and king in our fantasy suite. Our children saw your unit and they were very impressed. They want your listing info so they can stay here some time. Thank you very much. Mark and Kat"
We stayed for 8 days, and enjoyed it very much. Great location, excellent staff, very nice space at a good price. The owners were very responsive to questions, and had our damage deposit back very quickly after it was all done. All good.
This condo was absolutely beautiful and tastefully decorated. It was the cleanest condo we have ever stayed in, and seemed as if we were the first people to stay there. Very conveniently located, staff were so welcoming and the owners were absolutely delightful to work with; really appreciated the check out list. Actually, the owners were great to communicate with in every way. You will not find a better value for the luxury of the accommodations. Location was awesome!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We felt extremely spoiled and loved our home in Honolulu. Marcy and Henry assisted in our planning our first trip to Hawaii. The location was very convenient as we were able to walk to anything we wanted to see. Tour guide services were located in the foyer so we easily planned any tours we wanted. Everything in their suite is tastefully decorated and co-ordinated and very comfortable. The suite is very sound proof as well. The views were fascinating - we could see both sides of Waikiki. We highly recommend this suite and Marcy and Henry as hosts! Without a doubt we would stay at any properties owned by Henry and Marcy - and we thank them very much for their hospitality. Ronnie and Marie
We visited Waikiki for our Honeymoon Oct 21-Oct29th 2014 and stayed in this wonderful unit. When we arrived the unit was spotless and exactly as it looks in the photos on the VRBO site. The view from the lanai is really beautiful and took our breath away when we first opened the door. It is amazing to be so high up and have such a panoramic view. The owners also left us a little honeymoon gift, they go the extra mile for their guests.
The amenities were great...full kitchen, with everything we needed (even though we didn't do much cooking) had we wanted to we would have had all the items needed (toaster, pots, pans utensils, nice plates and glasses etc). The furniture in the room is exquisite. The bed is very comfortable as well, we enjoyed a great nights rest at the end of every day. The bathroom was well supplied with towels and toiletries. We used the fitness room which is well equipped and the pool which is nice and clean.
The location is perfect in Waikiki. It took us about 7-10 minutes to get from the unit to the sand. It's a beautiful walk through Fort De Russy park. If we wanted to head into the "busier" area of Waikiki it was just a couple more minutes on foot.
We had a rental car, we parked in the Wyndham a couple times (30$) and we also used the meter spots on the street and the public parking lot up the road. The staff at the Wyndham was excellent as well. They were polite and courteous.
I can't wait to get back to Oahu for another visit and I would most definitely return to this unit. Dealing with the owners was a great experience. They answer emails quickly, give helpful tips for your stay and are all around really pleasant to deal with. Don't debate which unit to rent...this is the one to pick if you're coming to Waikiki!
We've stayed in luxury accommodations in Oahu, all over the Caribbean, New Mexico, Colorado, Texas, Las Vegas and New York City. This condo was top notch...meticulously detailed luxury. We felt as if we were the very first guests as every single inch of the entire unit was perfect, immaculate and looked brand new. This makes guests feel grand! The attention to accessorizing the kitchen, bath and living area was overwhelming. The entire room was gorgeous, beautifully decorated and the view was wonderful in the day and night hours...canal, ocean and city!! Smart choices and superb taste. Certainly unsurpassed.
The owners kept in continuous contact with us from the reservation and deposit step to the detailed and very helpful info. concerning the property prior to our trip. We had more than we could ever imagine of anything we desired. It was magical.
The Royal Gardens' staff was friendly, courteous, professional, efficient, and helpful. The bellboys were outstanding. We became fast friends. Everyone bent over backwards to make us feel welcome. We were able to walk to the marina, beach, grocery stores, best restaurants and mall.
The overall experience was so special that my husband and I agree that it was our best vacation EVER!
Hello Henry and Marcy,
We wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful visit to Oahu. Your condo was fabulous! We loved the feeling of Royalty with your exquisite choice of decorating and fine detail. Not only was the room beautifully furnished, but it was spotless. The 18 ft. balcony provided a breathtaking view of Waikiki, the Ala Wai Canal, Pacific Ocean, and mountain view The night lights of the city were stunning.. We were so delighted to have discovered such a wonderful place. Your condo also is in a perfect location, for shopping, restaurants, and the beach or to take a city bus to various points in the city for $2.50. Recommended restaurants close by include: Vita's Hawaiian Steakhouse, Tilia's (for waffles), and CJ's at the Hilton Village (for burgers).
I was a little reluctant booking our first condo, but was always reassured by your immediate response. The room was everything as you described and was well equipped for cooking, watching TV. or playing a video.
The front desk people, greeted us with a "Welcome Home" and made us also feel like a guest of the Wyndham. (Royal Garden Hotel). The concierges, porters and security were also most courteous and helpful. . Two weeks went very quickly, but we have many fond memories.
Your condo is definitely a 5 star and we would highly recommend it for those wanting to experience luxury and wonderful service. We would love to return someday! We now have to adapt to not having the beautiful marble features and the wonderful overhead shower head.
Thank you kindly! (Mahalo!)
MJ & Jen
Expansive wall of windows in our condo offer views of Ocean, Ala Wai Canal, Ko'olau Mountain Range, Diamond Head Crater, and the famous Fort de Russy Beachpark. World class shopping in Waikiki and at the Ala Moana Shopping Center from high-end designer boutiques to bargain hunting at the International Market Place are minutes away from our condo. Walk 2 blocks through the beautiful Fort de Russy Beach park to Waikiki Beach or to the Hilton Hawaiian Village & Lagoon to watch the Friday night fireworks up close, or to Duke Kahanamoku Beach Park. In Waikiki you can choose to surf, boogie board, snorkel, canoe ride on the waves, paddle board, take a daytime or sunset catamaran ride, turtle watch, fish off the jetties, challenge a local chess player, or just sun bathe & people watch, not to mention golfing just across the Ala Wai !!

Thinking about doing a start-up? Congratulations, I applaud your ambition and drive. Just remember, you have now committed yourself to a future full of uncertainty and adventure. Even though I will be stepping you through some cautionary advice, (like my older brother always does to me before any launch – someone has to play devil's advocate, right?), the focus of this article is to stay encouraged and focused. Just don't make these simple mistakes. I'll step you through them on a simple level so it is easy for you to understand and take in.
As much as I believe you are the exception to the rule, studies show that the vast majority of new businesses fail. It is possible to get a successful business venture the first time around but the chances are against it. Understanding why entrepreneurship efforts fall short could keep you from experiencing the same fate. Here is the list from my experience:
Trying to contend against the leaders
Most business men start off wanting to be the most successful in the entire industry. The big mistake made is competing with large companies within the same niche. Large companies possess a large resource pool and a solid client base permitting them to easily get rid of competition by offering lower prices, using superior advertising techniques etc. A brand new business with fewer resources ought to find creative methods to succeed in an industry. In other words, quit being a hero and go smaller sized. The more compact your niche, the more targeted your customers are. There is a saying which says "if everyone is your consumer, than no one is your customer."
Trying to do almost everything
An entrepreneur that tries to handle many aspects of a business can become ineffective and therefore lead to failure. This over-generalization prevents you from concentrating on the accessible resources on providing exceptional services to clients. The inferior services provided repel clients. An entrepreneur should concentrate on supplying the best services on a particular niche, and should go for a niche that has the opportunity to cultivate and is currently underserviced. A little research will bring out a few untapped opportunities. Even most important, outsource whenever you can. The power of delegation can go a long way. You would be surprised what can be done just be simply empowering other people.
Not having sufficient funds
This leads to a lot of failures. Undervaluing how much capital you will need to operate this company until it becomes profitable will most certainly spell doom for your business. This is because expenses previously overlooked occur at the most unexpected times. This will drain your business fund causing a failure. An excellent idea will not develop into huge profits without adequate funding.
Having an incompetent team
The team the founder goes into business with will determine whether or not the venture will succeed. Most entrepreneurs create an incompetent team or go into business with individuals for the wrong reasons. Running a company is very challenging and possessing a team that cracks under pressure will result in failure. You will need to select your team cautiously, not simply off their LinkedIn profile or resume. Everyone has to have a common vision and push to succeed.
Going into business for weak reasons
Many entrepreneurs go into business for flimsy reasons. For example, a young man can begin a software development company so that he can be the next billionaire without sufficient planning on how to achieve it. These weak reasons don't stand the test of time causing a person to give up along the way.
Micromanaging the business
A business owner is supposed to simultaneously handle many aspects of the business. This enables you to lose sight of business goals. To avert this, you need to develop the ability of delegating duties to your team members. Micromanaging a business also creates animosity in the team as they believe their skills and input is not valued enough. Micromanagement has spelt doom for many businesses. Enable your employees and provide them possibilities to create within their positions. This assurance in your people will build an infectious and positive culture in the organization.
Re-read these words of advice over and over again. Once that is soaked it, I would recommend studying some other tales of caution in the start-up world. They were instrumental on the early success of my own start-up. Best of luck to everyone. If you feel I have missed some ideas, I would love to hear your thoughts in the comment section.

Jon Stewart sat down with Robert Gates on Wednesday to discuss former U.S. defense secretary's book "Duty" – which was released this week.
While Gates mostly talked about his term as the leader and chief executive officer of the Department of Defense from 2006 to 2010, Stewart wanted to know why U.S. lawmakers weren't keen on providing care to the nation's veterans.
"I write in the book that the only bureaucracy that is more intractable than the Department of Defense is Veterans Affairs," the guest replied.
"Congress has micro-managed Veterans Affairs in such a way that changing anything that has to do with dealing with veterans requires, literally, an act of Congress," Gates said.

He added that pilot programs were usually shelved because working on them required alterations to the existing law.
Stewart later remarked that "Duty" focuses a lot on the inefficiency of the U.S. Congress which, according to him, was the best part of the book.
"Congress, almost universally, comes out looking venal and small," Stewart told Gates. "And I thought, 'Boy, that's accurate.'"
Gates added to Stewart's analysis by implying that Congress members had become news celebrities, spending too much time in front of the camera than in the office.
"I say in the book that the effect of the red light of the television going on has the same effect on members of Congress as a full moon does on werewolves," Gates said.

All teaching, all life, can be boiled down to these three phrases shared at a reading by poet Jane Hirshfield:
Everything changes.
Everything is connected.
Pay attention.
Noticing requires time and quiet. Preparing for change is a slow and steady process.
This is why I believe in teaching yoga one-on-one and in small groups.
Tradition has it that in ancient times, yogis would attach themselves to great houses, serving as teachers, advisors and, healers….The pupil's undivided attention was fully reciprocated by the teacher. Focus, attentiveness, kindness with firmness, and many of the interpersonal virtues in yoga's Ten Commandments, the Yamas and Niyamas, were taught by precept and example in these two-person sessions. The parties got to know each other and relationships naturally formed.
– Loren Fishman, MD, from Yoga and Breast Cancer by Ingrid Kollak, RN, PhD and Isabell Utz-Billing, MD
Among past learning and teaching, occurrences stand out:
- Having a one-on-one with a yoga teacher early in my studies, 20 years ago. No one else showed for her class and she gave me full attention. We met in a small carpeted office. She took the time to build my confidence in mountain pose.
- Having another one-on-one with a yoga teacher whose class also didn't "fill." She placed me in savasana for 20 minutes, alone in the room, trusting me to myself.
- Guiding a high school junior into creating a powerful thesis for her final paper, the white board scrawled with ideas over hours after school ended, in the spacious stillness of a large public school that follows when even the coaches and custodians have packed up for the day.
And now:
- Sitting beside a yoga student in his or her own home, or mine, as she counts her breaths, tells me what she's feeling, and finds her way into a balance of effort and ease with each pose.
- Seeing how a student's alignment tilts him out of equanimity, showing him, and the delight on his face as he learns.
- A mother and daughter who sit in a class of two, their sanctioned time together in the week.
Who has taken the time to teach you in your field of study? Thank them, in thought, word or deed.
How did they model for you the art of attention, the significance of change, the links among ideas?

Yellowstone releases plan to protect native trout
YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Wyo. (AP) -- Netting and removing nonnative fish is one of the proposals for protecting native fish in Yellowstone National Park.
The park has released a plan for public comment. The park's preferred option would conserve Yellowstone cutthroat trout by removing nonnative fish from Yellowstone lake, some streams and release native fish in some areas.
Nonnative lake trout eat the smaller cutthroat trout, threatening the native fish and other species that eat it. The park's sport fishery is another casualty.
Public meetings on the environmental assessment of the fish plan are planned Jan. 5 at the Comfort Inn in Bozeman, Mont., and Jan. 6 at the Holiday Inn in Cody.

thrilling pink - for fair/ wheatish skin tone
This shade will suit fair/wheatish skin tone very well. Its a light pink colour, looks okayish on my medium skin. Texture wise it's a good lipstick, creamy texture, leaves a natural pink colour while fading, easy to apply, moisturising, a light shade for daily use and office.

Keyes: The Glass Ceiling is Slowly Melting
7-Eleven's chief executive also tells executive women's group that winning organizations are teaching organizations: "Proven leaders are both teachers and avid learners themselves."
DALLAS -- The stakes are too high in business today not to go after the best talent, regardless of race or gender, and the lack of diversity in the workplace is a "generational thing" that over time will dissolve, said Jim Keyes, president and CEO of 7-Eleven Inc. to a group of mostly female executives yesterday at the annual Leadership Summit of the Network of Executive Women (NEW).
"I know things aren't perfect yet, but we are light years ahead of the rest of the world and we've come a long way from just a generation ago," he said. "Discrimination stems from ignorance, but I do believe more and more companies are doing a better job."
The second annual NEW Leadership Summit was hosted at 7-Eleven corporate headquarters. The mission of NEW is to attract, retail and advance women in the retail consumer products industry through education, leadership, networking and business development.
Without question, there are still obstacles men set up in the workplace, "some of which are real, and others imagined," he said. Identifying discrimination is difficult and complicated by corporate politics, which is encountered at any organization. "It's important to properly diagnose the problem," Keyes said. "Because sometimes when you are on the receiving end of political Bologna, it sometimes feels like discrimination, but it may not be."
Keyes relayed a story about a period in his own career at 7-Eleven when he felt stymied and precluded from being promoted. When he later shared his thoughts and frustrations with his wife, she told him that if she did not know better she would say that he was being discriminated against. "I ended up not making that diagnosis of the situation. It was corporate politics at play, not discrimination. I decided to stay, persist and work hard. I decided to stay because I was still learning and growing. Even if I didn't end up getting that promotion, I knew I would have a lot of knowledge to take with me to what ever opportunity came next."
Winning organizations are teaching organizations, he said. "Successful organizations have proven leaders who are both teachers and avid learners themselves."
According to Keyes, the business world is starving for people with confidence that are not afraid to take personal risks, express ideas and a point of view, and who ultimately have the courage to make decisions. "So few leaders do this. Too many CEOs get to the top and retrench and focus on how they can stay there instead of moving the business forward."
There are three principals of leadership Keyes espouses:
* Embrace change: "If you are not open to change your point of view will become stale and irrelevant."
* Be confident" "If you are not confident, you will not have a point of view or, at the very least, you will be unwilling to state it."
* Keep it simple: "If you are not able to simplify your point of view, no one will understand it."
Organizations and leaders must build a culture of success. "No one will give you success," he said. "You have to take the initiative to learn, stretch and grow."
