Grove Cottages - Suffolk Holidays. If you are looking for a really romantic holiday cottage with open log fires and beautiful unspoilt original interiors, where you can explore lovely English countryside and bring your pet, then here is a unique selection of gorgeous cottages just for you.
Ipswich, Suffolk's county town, combines great shopping and a relaxing Waterfront setting with luxury accommodation. The nearby town of Woodbridge is the gateway to the Suffolk coast.
Bury St Edmunds is a unique and charming historic town. An important market town with a fascinating heritage, the combination of medieval architecture, elegant Georgian squares and glorious Cathedral and Abbey gardens provide a distinctive striking visual charm. Tourists can find prestigious shopping, an award winning market, plus variety of attractions and places to stay. Bury St Edmunds is under two hours from London and very convenient for trips to explore Cambridge.
The parish of Pakenham is unique in Britain in having both a working watermill and a working windmill. The mill is maintained and operated by a team of dedicated volunteers who continue the tradition to this day. The 18th century watermill, the last working watermill in Suffolk and now owned by the Suffolk Building Preservation Trust, is on a Doomsday site. Here, for almost a thousand years, millers have been using freely available waterpower to produce stone-ground wholemeal flour from locally-grown wheat.
Southwold is famous in Suffolk for its delightful pier. Refurbished in 2005, the pretty pier offers a wide range of shops, eating places and amusements from traditional two penny pushers to Tim Hunkin's eccentric inventions
No UK school holiday would be complete without a visit to Southwold's sandy beach, with its brightly coloured beach huts and sprawling dunes. It is one of the most popular in the area. The beach has a full lifeguard service during the busy summer months and is Blue Flag accredited.
Southwold is the iconic East Anglian coastal town. Clean, civilized, smart and in the midst of a place categorized as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there's a lot to enjoy on a weekend away in Southwold. Things to see in Southwold include the Adnams Brewery, the Southwold Pier, the Lighthouse, the Old Water Tower and the Southwold Museum. The beach is one of the finest in East Anglia, although it is a combination of both sand and shingle. One can also rent one of the many brightly coloured beach huts which overlook the sea.
A short distance away from Southwold is the charming village of Walberswick. The village has some beautiful beaches which are not as busy as the ones in Southwold. Walberswick is also home to some classic countryside pubs, something that is becoming a dying breed in much of the rest of the country. One of the best ways to enjoy the region is by bicycle or simply on foot.
Plan a visit to Snape where the old maltings, home to the Aldeburgh Festival and a host of shops and restaurants, has placed Snape Maltings firmly on the list of great places to visit during the half term break on the Suffolk Coast. The riverside complex of converted Victorian buildings is also home to an RSPB centre, allowing visitors to experience the abundance of wildlife that inhabits the surrounding marshes.
Suffolk in England truly has something for all members of the family, no matter what time of the year you choose to visit. Remember that like many parts of the UK with a coastline and sandy beaches it can get busy during the British school holidays.

Andy Murray looks the part once more in bid to retain Wimbledon title
The Wimbledon champion has timed his reinvention perfectly after an impressive opening to his defence on Centre Court
There is a tragedy in ultimate fulfilment, and it's called the rest of your life. Nothing is better than planning to climb Everest or looking for the blue whale or courting Julia Roberts or writing Ulysses. But what do you do when you've succeeded? How can you cope with the certainty that everything in life is now a little bit of a letdown?
What athlete has ever wanted one thing more than Andy Murray wanted the Wimbledon men's singles title? Apart from a few Olympians, I can't think of any sporting career so completely dominated by a single goal — to reach it would be glorious, to fall short an eternal reproach. Murray's desire grew so great, it became a kind of handicap, made worse by…

Dwight Howard on Monday stated his commitment to the Orlando Magic, saying he wants the franchise to grow in stature. He also said he needs help on and off the court to make that happen.
"Not only do I need the right teammates, but I need the city behind me. That's the only way it's going to get done. We can change this small city that we have — this small market that we have — and we can make it a big market," the Magic center told the Orlando Sentinel during a Memorial Day barbecue he held for fans in Orlando.
Orlando tried to improve the All-NBA center's surrounding cast last December with two major trades. The Magic acquired Gilbert Arenas from the Washington Wizards for Rashard Lewis, and they reacquired Hedo Turkoglu from the Phoenix Suns in a six-player deal that sent Vince Carter out west. Orlando finished second in the Southeast Division with a 52-30 record and was eliminated by the Atlanta Hawks in the first round of the playoffs.
The 25-year-old Howard told the Sentinel he wanted to "start my own path" in Orlando. "I'm not trying to run behind nobody like Shaq or be behind somebody else," Howard said, referring to Shaquille O'Neal's exit from Orlando 15 years ago for the Los Angeles Lakers. L.A. is considered a primary option for Howard, who can opt out of his contract a year early in 2012.
Howard told the Sentinel he came up with the idea of a cookout Monday morning as a way to address fans' concerns about his future in Orlando. The Sentinel reported that hundreds of people attended even though the event was announced only on Twitter.
"As of right now, I'm a part of the Orlando Magic and I plan to be here," Howard said. "And I want the Magic to do whatever they can to make sure that we can get our city behind us. That's the only thing that I want to happen: just to have the city behind me and the support of our fans.
"I never said I was leaving. I never, ever thought about leaving. That's basically where my head is right now. I never said anything to them [the Magic] about what my plans were because that's not what I'm focused on right now."

NEW YORK — Phil Ramone, the masterful Grammy Award-winning engineer, arranger and producer whose platinum touch included recordings with Ray Charles, Billy Joel and Paul Simon, died Saturday of complications stemming from heart surgery, his family said. He was 79.
Ramone, who lived in Wilton, Conn., died Saturday morning at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, his son Matt Ramone said.
Few in the recording industry enjoyed a more spectacular and diverse career. Phil Ramone won 14 competitive Grammy Awards and one for lifetime achievement. Worldwide sales for his projects topped 100 million. He was at ease with rock, jazz, swing and pop, working with Frank Sinatra and Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney, Elton John and Tony Bennett, Madonna and Lou Reed.
One of the biggest names not to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Ramone was on hand for such classic albums as The Band's "The Band" and Bob Dylan's "Blood On the Tracks." He produced three records that went on to win Grammys for album of the year – Simon's "Still Crazy After All These Years," Joel's "52nd Street" and Charles' "Genius Loves Company."
"I always thought of Phil Ramone as the most talented guy in my band," Joel said in a statement. "So much of my music was shaped by him and brought to fruition by him. I have lost a dear friend – and my greatest mentor."
Fascinated by the mechanics of the studio, Ramone was a pioneer of digital recording who produced what is regarded as the first major commercial release on compact disc, "52nd Street," which came out on CD in 1982. He was even part of political history, advising presidential administrations on musical events and how to properly tape a news conference and helping to record the storied 1962 party for John F. Kennedy at Madison Square Garden that featured Marilyn Monroe's gushing rendition of "Happy Birthday."
He thrived whether producing music for the stereo, television, film or the stage. He won an Emmy for a TV special about Duke Ellington, a Grammy for the soundtrack to the Broadway musical "Promises, Promises" and a Grammy for the soundtrack to "Flashdance."
He had uncanny instincts and made an art out of the "Duets" concept, pairing Sinatra with U2 frontman Bono, Luther Vandross and other younger artists, Bennett with McCartney and Barbra Streisand, and Charles with Bonnie Raitt and Van Morrison. In Ramone's memoir, "Making Records," he recalled persuading a hesitant Sinatra to re-record some of his most famous songs.
"I reminded Frank that while Laurence Olivier had performed Shakespeare in his 20s, the readings he did when he was in his 60s gave them new meaning," Ramone wrote. "I spoke with conviction. 'Don't my children – and your grandchildren – deserve to hear the way you're interpreting your classic songs now?' "
A request from Sinatra led to another Ramone innovation: Singers performing simultaneously from separate studios.
A native of South Africa, Ramone seemed born to make music. He had learned violin by age 3 and was trained at The Juilliard School in New York.
He might well have enjoyed a traditional concert career, but he was drawn as a teenager to the popular music he secretly listened to on his portable radio, the music people actually listened to, he explained.
By his mid-20s, he and partner Jack Arnold had opened a recording studio, A&R Recording, where he served as engineer for such visiting artists as Count Basie and Sarah Vaughan. He also met Quincy Jones and Streisand, both of whom became longtime friends, when he was in his 20s. By the end of the 1960s, he had worked on "Midnight Cowboy" and other movie soundtracks and would credit composer John Barry with helping him become a producer.
His credits as a producer, engineer and arranger make it hard to believe they belong to just one person: Joel's "The Stranger," Simon's "There Goes Rhymin' Simon," concert albums by Dylan and the Rolling Stones, such popular singles as Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant," Streisand's "Evergreen," Lesley Gore's "It's My Party," Judy Collins' "Send in the Clowns" and Stan Getz's and Astrud Gilberto's "The Girl from Ipanema."

Parakeet wierd sleep habits?
Topic Stats: 6359 views, 3 replies and 2 subscribers.
June 17th, 2007 04:28
About 3 days ago my parakeet started sleeping upside down, hanging from the top of her cage like a bat. About the same time I noticed she was having problems flying from one perch to the other. I have moved her to a smaller cage and away from my other parakeets as a precaution. I am not sure of her age as it was given to my mom from a neighbor. My mom gave it to me. Are her new sleeping habits related to possibly a wing sprain? Thanks for any help I can get on this. Oh, yeah, her eating and drinking habits are normal.

Its not unsual for papakeets to sleep upside down. There are many breeds of keets and I know that certain breeds do sleep as you describe, as for his having problems reaching his perches perhaps he is up in age, you might consider a vet visit one that sees birds only, although the visit will be quite expensive. I take my keets to the vet and never leave the office without paying at least $100.00. Adriean

Rangers agree to deal with shortstop Odor
Rangers agree to deal with shortstop Odor
The Rangers and Venezuelan shortstop Rougned Odor have agreed to terms on a $425,000 deal, according to Baseball America.
Odor is a 5-foot-10 left-handed hitter with a clean swing. He's increased his speed of late, but could be better suited at second base as his career advances. His uncle, Rouglas Odor, is the Indians' Double-A hitting coach.
Over the summer, Baseball America reported that Odor was 16 years old and that the Yankees, Phillies and Blue Jays had interest in him.

Chapter 5 : October 1977: The Banks of the Black Lake.
|Rating: Mature
|Chapter Reviews: 11
Background: Font color:
Fortunately, this particular Halloween fell on a Saturday, so Lily, Heidi and I had the whole day to discuss tonights Gryffindor-Annual-After-The- Halloween-Feast- Party. I was sitting with Lily on the banks of the Black Lake. It was just after breakfast, and Heidi had already abandoned us to see her precious Xenophilius.
I just cant believe shes ditched us again. This day was supposed to be just us, talking about tonight. She always has to be with HIM! Lily kicked at the water as she said the last word.
Lily, dont worry. Ill talk to her. We cant make her come to us whenever we want, cause obviously she has to spend SOME time with Xeno. But weve always done this. Its tradition. And dont kick the water again; I dont want the Giant Squid coming to attack us,
Lily giggled. We both started laughing together but she abruptly stopped and her face twisted angrily. I didnt even have to turn around to guess who was there.
Hey James,
Hi Chloe, hello Lily,
I could tell James loved saying Lilys name. He said it with so much warmth.
Lily on the other hand, hated both James name and James generally, so much so that she called him only by his surname. Which she also hated.
Come sit down James. Whats up?
I turned around to face James. Grudgingly, Lily turned around too.
Um, I just came to ask you if I could borrow your Quidditch Through the Ages book? Sirius burned mine because he was bored.
I laughed, and even Lily cracked a smile.
Yeah, sure. Ill give it to you in the Common Room after lunch. I smiled.
Cool, so Ill see you then. He turned to leave. By the way Lily, you look really pretty,
With that, he jogged off to meet Remus, who was sitting on a bench, reading nearby.
I turned around to face Lily.
Lily are- are you blushing?
What? No! No! She half shouted, blushing even more.
I think you are! Do you like James now? Maybe this was going to be easier than I thought...
No! Of course I dont!
Time to take a risk.
You know, now I think about it, youd actually go really well with James. Hes not as arrogant anymore and hes obviously in love with-
WHAT?! Lily screeched.
Its true, you-
WHAT?! Are you SERIOUS?! What the FUCK?! You know what; you dont know what youre talking about! James Potter? NOT arrogant? Yeah right. Im going for a walk. Dont follow me. Ill see you later.
She stormed off, glaring at James and Remus as she stamped through the castles main gates. James ran over to me.
What happened?
Oh right. Well, I think she liked you not being all cocky. That was a good move with the pretty thing,
James glowed and muttered, Well, its true,
I smiled, rolled my eyes and continued as Remus came over to us.
But I said that youd go well together and she completely over reacted. I think shes scared that she likes you a bit more. Even as a friend. But tonight at the After-Feast-Party, I think you should go the next level. Be really nice and get her to talk to you and explain that youre sorry for acting like a prick for all these years. Then ask to be friends. Then, youll be friends, shell want more and, BAM! Youre going out.
James grinned,
Good plan. And with the Sirius thing, I have an idea.
What is it?
It was Remus that answered,
I was shocked. None of the marauders had ever shown any interest in Sirius Slytherin brother.
What does he have to do with it? Ive never even talked to him! Sirius hates him-
Exactly Remus and James said at the same time.
James carried on,
If you start going out with Regulus-
Wait. No- No way am I getting involved with that guy.
At that moment I thought the Marauders were going prematurely senile.
Look, I know its horrible to think about. But itll definitely work. Do you want to be with Sirius? Remus asked.
Of course I do. Fine. Ill do it.
Remus smiled.
Well, Regulus is on the Quidditch pitch right now. Go flirt. We know youre good at it,
Shut up James.
I left James and Remus sniggering by themselves and jogged to the Quidditch pitch where I immediately saw the Slytherin seeker Regulus Black swooping around the goalposts on his Nimbus 1500. Hed got it that morning, sent from home.
I sat in the stands and waited for Sirius sixth year brother to notice me. I have to say, I admired his flying. He twisted and turned with ease as he circled the pitch. When he came near me I started cheering. I felt instantly stupid but I was getting impatient. Was this guy blind or something? But my outburst proved to gain his attention as he suddenly stopped in midair and flew to the stands.
Who are you? he asked. He didnt say it rudely. He seemed quite shy.
My names Chloe. I- I really liked your flying there,
I was going for shyness this time. Complete lie, Im not shy at all, but whatever.
Um, thanks. Im Regulus Black. Pure Blood Slytherin, Sixth Year. You?
Uh. He mentions his blood status when introducing himself. What a catch.
Chloe Bonaccord. Pure Blood Gryffindor-
Yeah. The Sorting Hat was going to put me in Slytherin but then it changed its mind. It really annoyed me. I didnt want to be with any blood traitors and mudbloods but you cant change houses once the Hat shouts out one.
I knew the Black family (except for Sirius) were all for blood cleansing and stuff. However much I disagreed with it, I had to say it; if he knew I wasnt for it, he wouldnt take a second look at me and Id never make Sirius jealous.
That sucks.
There was an awkward silence.
Um, could you teach me how to fly like that sometime? I dont really know how...
This, of course was another complete and utter lie. I was on the Quidditch team for Gods sake!
Sure, He smiled.
Ill see you around then, I smiled back.
Yeah. Bye,
I got up to leave and skipped down the stairs. I looked around to see Regulus doing loops on his new broom. Obviously showing off.
I rolled my eyes as I left the stadium. Then, I saw Sirius stalking towards me.
What were you doing talking to my brother? Hes trouble. Dont talk to him.
Well, he seems perfectly nice to me. And you cant stop me from talking to anyone. I can talk to anyone I like.
He looked surprised and then his grey eyes flashed menacingly. My stomach jolted as he said,
Fine. But when something goes wrong, dont blame me.
He left me on my own in the grounds as he trudged back in to the castle. Doubt washed over me about the plan I had just got myself in to.

بماند سالها این نظم و ترتیب ز ما هر ذره خاک افتاده جایی
غرض نقشی است کز ما باز ماند که هستی را نمی بینم بقایی
مگر صاحبدلی روزی به رحمت کند در کار درویشان دعایی
These rhymes shall remain for years
While our dust is dispersed in the air
These words are but to remind of us
For else, no permanence is traced in life
Hoping a pure mystic, a man of heart
May pray for us, poor souls, as an act of grace

She made two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. She sliced an apple. The soup was hot. She poured it into two bowls. She put the sandwiches on two plates. She put apple slices on each plate. She put the bowls and plates on the table. The children ran to the table. "Thank you, mommy!" they said. Then they started eating. The cat and the dog watched them eat

The Two Goats
Over a river there was a very narrow bridge. One day a goat was crossing this bridge. Just at the middle of the bridge he met another goat. There was no room for them to pass. "Go back," said one goat to the other, "there is no room for both of us
"Why should I go back?", said the other goat. "Why should not you go back?"
" You must go back", said the first goat, "because I am stronger than you
"You are not stronger than I", said the second goat
"We will see about that", said the first goat, and he put down his horns to fight
"Stop!", said the second goat. " If we fight, we shall both fall into the river and be drowned. Instead I have a plan- I shall lie down, and you may walk over me
Then the wise goat lay down on the bridge, and the other goat walked lightly over him. So they passed each other, and went on their ways

Recently I tore my hair out trying to create a great end-user experience for my Excel 2010 users when they access SharePoint.
Eventually I found a way to get it to work. This is not a perfect post. I'm far from an expert in SharePoint & I'm hoping a sharepoint expert will comment & show me a slicker way. But given I found nothing on the net, I hope this may assist you.
The Goal.
A Sharepoint person should publish a set of connections to data sources & provide permissions to all who need them. All end users automatically see them. Some time later as IT moves the databases & data to new servers, they update the sharepoint data connection libraries & the hundreds of business users don't notice & don't care.
What I wanted the Business user to experience
Step 1: Open Excel & click on Existing Connections
Step 2: See something in the "Connection files on the Network". Double click on one of the Sharepoint Data Connection Libraries listed.
Step 3: Select the Data Source they want.
How to do it – Sharepoint Site Admin.
Step 1: Open Sharepoint 2010 Central Administration app & click Manage Service Applications
Step 2: Check the Excel Services Application has been installed & started.
(As this process is reasonably well documented elsewhere I'll not repeat it here)
Step 3: Click User Profile Service Application
Step 4: Click "Publish links to Office Client Applications"
This bit took me ages to find, as it was in a different location in Sharepoint 2007 & all the 2010 doc's I found still had Sharepoint 2007 pictures in it.
Step 6: Paste in the URL to the Sharepoint Data Connection Library that you've created earlier.
NB: If you don't have one, now would be a very good time to
a) Create a Data Connection Library (DCL),
b) Create a Data Connection
c) Upload it into Sharepoint &
d) Give permissions & Approve both the Library & the Data Connection.
(As these steps are also well doc'ed I'll not repeat them here. )
How to do it – Excel Client Admin.
Note: This is the part I think it insane. It works, it is in the official documentation for older versions of Sharepoint. But I suspect there is much better way to do this. Some have told me "Yes we do that, but we push it out via group policy". I can't imaging anyone in the Sharepoint team architecting this & deciding it was the recommended way to do this. So there is probably a script or button somewhere but I've not found it.
Step 1. Open up RegEdit.Exe.
(Note: You are about to edit the Windows Registry. Good idea to back it up first. If you stuff it up you may create serious issues that may prevent your computer from starting & cause you to reinstall windows.)
Step 2: Move to Key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\Server Links\Published
Step 3: Right Click on Published & add a new String Key.
Call it anything you like, this will be the name that appears in the Excel "Existing Connections" Dialog. As you can see above I called mine "Secure Data Connections" as that was the name of the Sharepoint DCL I created & management liked the idea of it being secure.
Step 4: Set the value to the key to URL to point to the Sharepoint Data Connection Library you created.
Step 5: Enjoy.
Note: The environment I set this up was had a crazy design for the Windows Authentication in their Test domain. So I'm unsure if some of the Trust & Security warnings I was receiving from Excel was something others would see. If you also get "Click here to trust this data" try looking in the Excel Trust Centre & Trusted Locations / Documents areas.
Like I said at the start. I usually prefer to present well researched material & have a "this is the way to do it" blog. But in this case the goal is to help you break thru a few of the issues I had & maybe move you closer to a solution.
Feel free to add comments if you have more insight on this process.
Thanks Dave.

Plaid makes breakthrough
Plaid Cymru has scored some significant breakthroughs in the Welsh Assembly elections.
The nationalist party has picked up seats outside its traditional heartland areas by taking control of the Labour strongholds of Islwyn and the Rhondda in the south Wales valleys.
Plaid gained its first Westminster seat in 1966 when it took Carmarthen. It later lost this west Wales seat, but in the 1970s took Meirionnydd, Caernarfon and later Ynys Mon in north Wales, holding on to all these seats in subsequent elections.
It added Ceredigion in 1992 on the biggest swing of that General Election, when it came from fourth place to win the seat from the Liberal Democrats.
However, all those four seats - and Plaid's main target seat of Carmarthen East and Dinefwr, where the party came a close second in 1997 - are in areas where the majority of people are Welsh-speakers.
The party has struggled to break through outside those "heartland" areas, where its support is underpinned by people's cultural allegiance.
Its main hopes for a breakthrough elsewhere in Wales had focused on the Labour-dominated south Wales valleys, where the party had often scored high results in by-elections, and where they had briefly controlled some councils, such as Merthyr Tydfil in the 1970s and Taff Ely in the early 1990s.
Plaid remains the second party in many south Wales valleys councils, but for some years has not threatened Labour's control.
The National Assembly elections, however, seem to have given Plaid its longed-for breakthrough.
It has taken Islwyn, the former seat of the former leader of the Labour Party, Neil Kinnock. Then it picked up Rhondda, which normally returns Labour majorities of more than 20,000 in Westminster elections.
In fighting the assembly elections, Plaid added the tag "The Party of Wales" to its usual Welsh title, and stressed it should no longer be seen as the party of Welsh speakers. Plaid also toned down its traditional stance on independence, saying it had never been the party's aim.
As Plaid celebrates its successes, it looks as though that strategy of appealing to voters outside its heartland has borne fruit, leaving it as the second party in Wales's new democratic institution.

The best of both worlds for the taller traveler
In order to gain a few extra centimeters of height useful for tall photographers without having to rely on a fully extended telescopic Center Column, FEISOL engineers created the new CT-3441T Rapid model which is a fusion of the time-proven CT-3441S main-frame with the taller CT-3442 legs, and equipped the CT-3441T with a one-section Center Column which further increases stability.
In spite of its one-section Center Column, the 3441T delivers a maximum extended height of 173 cm, is incredibly compact, folding down to a length of just 48 cm, and startlingly light, weighing just 1.1 kg truly a winning combination.
Features of the FEISOL CT-3441T include:
- FEISOL's new Rapid anti-leg-rotation technology
- A maximum operating height of 173 cm, while folding down to a length of just 48 cm
- A lightweight but highly durable frame that weighs just 1.1 kg
- Maximum 2.8 cm (1.1 inch) leg tubes, with aluminum alloy screws on the leg joints for lightweight operation (do not overtighten)
- A one-section Center Column
- The CT-3441T features two different spikes for various terrains (optional), giving the tripod an exceptionally solid feel
- Preset leg angles at 25, 50, and 75 degrees
- incl. tripod bag and hook
With the taller photographer in mind, the FEISOL CT-3441T offers the professional or serious amateur the opportunity to travel lightly, yet have on hand a superior tripod to handle every challenge in the field.

Four who climbed Rainier: Tips from first-timers
Here are mini-profiles of four people who ascended Mount Rainier in recent years, with their tips on what to do (and not).
Northwest travel guides
He climbed many stairs
People from all over the world climb Mount Rainier. Scott Borrillo, a property manager from St. Augustine, Fla., had a 2008 summit attempt foiled by bad weather, but reached the top in 2009. Borrillo trained in Florida's flatlands by climbing stairs at a 10-story hospital while toting a 55-pound backpack — 20 round-trips per visit.
He credits his success to hard training, good leaders (International Mountain Guides), savvy packing (his pack weighed just 37 pounds) and, crucially, a can-do mental outlook.
"You can train all you want, but if your mind is not set for the challenge, you're not going to get up the mountain," said Borrillo, now 41.
Just two days before his Rainier attempt, Borrillo made the unconventional choice to climb 12,276-foot Mount Adams, Washington's second highest peak. What might have drained others energized Borrillo.
"I should have been hurting, but I wasn't," he said. "I woke up the next morning and felt like a million bucks. I was charged up. That carried me the entire way up Rainier.
"I told myself I was going to make it to Camp Muir, then to Ingraham Flats, and then whatever comes next. Take an obstacle 50 feet in front of you, get past it and go on to the next one. I was setting new goals constantly, telling myself I was never going to quit."
— Terry Wood
Toughest going down
Paul Silvi, sports director at Seattle's KING-TV, made many training hikes up Mount Si and other high points last year after getting an invitation from the Seattle Seahawks to climb Rainier with then-coach Jim Mora and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
Silvi ("Not a hiker, not a climber, definitely not a camper," he concedes) had one month to prepare. He turned to KING meteorologist Jeff Renner, a climber, for help. Silvi borrowed one of Renner's backpacks and started hiking with a gallon of water (a touch more than eight pounds) inside. He worked up to five gallons.
A week before the climb, he hiked to Camp Muir. Fun stuff? "I was absolutely exhausted after that final training climb — never been so tired in my life," Silvi said. "But it turned out to be a huge benefit going into the main event."
Silvi and company enjoyed great weather. The toughest part of the climb? "Coming down. You reach the summit, you're feeling a tremendous high, and then your guide says, 'OK, pack it up. We're only halfway home.' We basically climbed from 2 a.m. straight through to 4 p.m., reaching the summit and then descending all day. With no real goal after the summit, it was brutal."
Best advice? "Our guides told me to drink plenty of water, and when I'm done, drink some more... Constant hydration is very important. And wear comfortable boots. I had a pair of rentals, and I lost a couple of toenails. I think boots are the most important piece of equipment on the climb. It is a nonstop slog."
— Terry Wood
Willpower stretched her limits
Boglarka Gyurkocza, a physician and research associate at Seattle's Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, played the mental game well during her 2008 ascent, the graduation climb of a Mountaineers climbing course.
"It's an empowering experience," said Gyurkocza, 36, a native of Hungary. "You learn something about yourself on the climb. I learned that using my mental willpower I can push my limits farther than I thought I could."
"A successful climb is a balance between conditioning and mental focus," she said. "The more conditioning you have, though, the more fun you will have in the end. I could have enjoyed it more if I was in better shape."
Gyurkocza endorses the self-sufficiency aspect of an independent trip without a professional guide. "You just feel more a part of it," she said. "We shared the gear. No one was carrying it up for us. No one was in a passive role. It felt a lot more natural."
On the day she climbed, Gyurkocza estimated the male-female ratio on the mountain was maybe 70-30.
"I don't think in general there was anything that was particularly challenging for a woman," she said, though she noted at rest stops she wished she had brought one extra layer of insulation. "I didn't notice any advantage or disadvantage for being a woman on the climb. It all comes down to skills and conditioning, and everyone working as a team."
The payoff? "When we got to the crater rim, it was exhilarating," she said. "All these people were drinking, eating, talking. Everyone had thrown off their packs and were just walking around. It was very liberating. People were grinning like crazy."
— Terry Wood
Not everybody gets to the top
In the past five years, 56.8 percent of the 47,898 people who made a summit attempt on Mount Rainier have succeeded.
Mike McQuaid was not one of them — and he's OK with that.
"By the end of the climb, I was as proud of myself as I have ever been for anything I've done," said McQuaid, owner of a Seattle public-relations company who attempted a climb in 2006.
The reason: His climb included an extra challenge — a dread of heights that could affect him anywhere, even on at the top of a flight of stairs. "When I got off that mountain, a fear of heights literally was not an issue for me anymore," he said.
Fatigue, not fear, caused McQuaid, then 43, to withdraw from his summit attempt, the third person in his party to became too gassed to reach the top. Guides from Rainier Mountaineering bundled him in a sleeping bag and, using ice axes, "tacked" him to the mountain at 12,300 feet, above Disappointment Cleaver.
"I was perfectly happy with that," said McQuaid, a former All-Pac-10 rower at Washington State (and no relation to the Mike McQuaide who regularly writes for The Seattle Times). "I was clearly holding back my line. From rowing I knew a team was only as good as the weakest rower in the boat."
He still enjoyed a nice payoff. "From 12,000 feet I watched the most incredible sunrise I think I've ever seen. Other than a very large crow or vulture circling overhead, it was all very quiet. I was thrilled that everyone else in the party got up to the top. I was just happy to be there."
McQuaid understands where he fell short. "With my athletic background, I should have known to train harder. I should have done more hikes at altitude, more running, more endurance training with weights, aggressive hikes up Mount Si."
What advice for anyone pondering an initial Rainier climb?
"Do it. I haven't lost my respect for high places, but I have overcome my personal fear of heights. This is the kind of experience that can change your life."

Second Place
Frigate Bird
Haleiwa's name declares it
the hale of the 'iwa, the house of the frigate bird.
Most days you can spy one of those big-winged, fork-tailed rascals
soaring over head
in flight no plane or kite could match,
cruising fast lanes of upper air,
soaring effortlessly for hours,
then, with a slight shrug of shoulder and tilt of tail,
accelerating a long, down-wind dive,
wings brandishing their swords
for a rapid descent
aimed at the head of a smaller bird,
startling it into spitting up its meal,
which the 'iwa snatches mid-air.
Elegance of form is like that sometimes–
just a way to steal somebody's lunch.

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Drew Kaiden to the position of assistant chancellor for development.
In this role, Drew will play a key part in helping the campus to successfully compete for the external support that Rutgers–Camden needs if we are to continue to attract and retain top students, promote faculty research, and develop new opportunities for civic engagement. He will lead the development and alumni relations teams on our campus to help the deans and me in our efforts to increase connections to and investment in our campus.
Most recently, Drew served as associate vice president of development and alumni relations at Long Island University-Brooklyn, where he played a critical role in the most successful fundraising campaign in the history of LIU's College of Pharmacy. He previously served the Archdiocese of New York as associate director of parish fundraising and as regional director of the Cardinal's Appeal.
Drew earned his master's degree from Long Island University and his bachelor's degree from Dickinson College.
His first day in at Rutgers–Camden will be Monday, March 3. He will be located at 411 Cooper Street. Please join us in offering our congratulations and full support to Drew as the campus pursues increased engagement with our alumni and our supporters.
As we welcome Drew to his new role, I want to thank Danielle Smereczynski who served as acting assistant chancellor for development over the last few months as we sought to fill this position. Through her focus and effort, Rutgers–Camden continued to make noteworthy progress with external funders during a critical period. I am grateful to Danielle for her willingness to take on this role and ask you to join me in thanking her for a job well done. Upon Drew's arrival, she will return to her duties as a director of development for our campus.
Wendell E. Pritchett, J.D., Ph.D.

Fireside: Just be careful when you ask for the check
When Trent Eigner opened The Pond, his miniature ice rink on County Road 42, he hoped to bring a restaurant into the location next to the ice arena.
For some time Rich Thompson, the owner of Fireside Pizza in Richfield, has wanted to open a restaurant south of the river.
Last winter their plans merged and Fireside Restaurant was created. After months of planning and construction the hockey themed restaurant opened June 11.
"It went great," said assistant general manager Lauren Vail.
Aptly named, Fireside features a large brick fireplace in the middle of the chalet-styled restaurant. From large windows on the east wall customers can watch all the action on the mini rink at The Pond. For those not interested in watching people bounce off boards while they eat, a large, quiet dining room accommodates.
The décor of the restaurant matches the hockey theme. Hockey jerseys adorn the walls along with other memorabilia. Blue accents complement the wood features of the restaurant.
The restaurant boasts a 100 percent private dining room for parties. The room can be completely separated from the rest of the restaurant, including a separate restroom for intimate affairs such as groom's dinners and business parties.
Vail said the room features separate audio from the rest of the restaurant and a 50-inch plasma television, which can be hooked up to any laptop computer for presentations.
"It's perfect for events," said Vail.
Fireside features a menu of American favorites including Buffalo wings, burgers and pizzas. The pizzas, Vail said, are the same as Fireside Pizza in Richfield, which has been open since 1960. On Saturday and Sunday the restaurant will feature breakfast. The restaurant offers takeout and delivery.
"It's just good, affordable food," said Vail.
In addition to the food the restaurant features a full bar. Vail said alcohol compliance is an important issue for the staff at the restaurant especially since they want to appeal to families.
She said all staff at the restaurant received alcohol compliance training and their staff isn't afraid to cut someone off if necessary.
"Believe you me I will do it," said Vail.
Vail said one feature of the restaurant is that customers can take food into the hockey rink. The booze, however, will have to stay in the restaurant.
After a successful first weekend Vail said they are excited to be in Rosemount and hope people will give them a try.
"It's been a long process but we're here and just hope people will come out and enjoy good food and the hockey atmosphere," said Vail.
Fireside Restaurant is located in the Rosemount Market Square, 3410 150th St. For more information visit www.dinewithfireside.com.

Here is the complete video of the crane crashing
SHOREVIEW, Minn. (WCCO) — A Shoreview homeowner was in disbelief Friday afternoon while trying to install a hot tub at his house.
Workers were using a crane to lift the hot tub over the house and into the backyard, but the crane crashed onto the roof of the home, causing signifcant damage to the garage.
Nobody was hurt during the crash.
Watch a video here that was recorded during the incident. It's from onsite electrician who was there to hook up the hot tub. We have to warn you that there is some vulgar language at the end of the video right after the crane crashes.

FMLA Was A Hard-Fought Victory, But There's Much More to Do
Today we celebrate 20 years of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). This ground-breaking legislation, signed into law by President Clinton, sent a powerful statement across the country about the role our government has in strengthening families. It said loud and clear that above all -- family comes first!
Historically, this has been the labor unions' mantra. What are living wages, health care, retirement security and paid leave but a robust package of economic security for families? In this blog carnival, labor leaders celebrate the FMLA's 20th Anniversary and remind us all of an important truth: that the FMLA made it possible for over 100 million people to act on the responsibility that we have to our families.
Upon implementation of the FMLA, Unions were quick to improve on the law by codifying the language into union contracts. This had the benefit of ensuring that union members knew about the law and that employers would comply with it. Over time, this approach has worked. Recent research shows that union members are more likely to know about the FMLA than non-union workers. Relatedly, employers operating with a collective bargaining agreement are almost twice as likely to comply with the FMLA than non-union employers.
Many unions also negotiated expansions to the law, reducing the wait time, increasing the period to recover from a serious illness, welcoming a newborn, or being there for a parent in their last days. Other local unions bargained for paid family leave – imagine the difficulty for millions of Americans, having to go to work when they need to be at home caring for a new baby or a sick spouse. For many union members, this isn't an issue. In fact, recent estimates suggest that 46% of unionized people have paid leave compared with only 29% of non-union workers. This is why in 2002, the California Labor Federation and the Labor Project for Working Families led a campaign to win the nation's first Paid Family Leave law in California.
We can all do better. In this 20th Anniversary of the FMLA, a landmark law that is all about family, let us remember that 177 other nations have a paid family leave system -- the U.S. has none. We essentially ask hard-working people, who've put in the time and played by the rules to forgo a paycheck when they need it the most – recovery from an illness, welcoming a beautiful baby or supporting a sick spouse. Our national leave program should be robust. It should include every single individual who works for a living; all parents regardless of gender; a broader definition of family; and above all real compensation.
Don't get me wrong, we know that FMLA improvements won't be easy, but the rewards will be great. Heck, it took 9 years, and two vetoes to get the first legislation signed into law. Joel Packer, Raben Group, was the National Education Association (NEA), co-chair of the FMLA lobbying taskforce for the entire 9 years. He said, "I've been a federal lobbyist for over 35 years and passage of the FMLA was one of the most difficult but rewarding issues I've worked on. It really benefits families, children and the elderly in a concrete way. At the time, opponents argued how harmful it would be to the business community. But the horror stories didn't materialize. It's also a good example that elections really do matter. This family-oriented legislation was vetoed twice – but President Clinton will go down in history as signing the FMLA into law for American families."
So here we are 20 years and over 100 million FMLA users later. Against unprecedented attacks, the labor movement remains committed to expansion of the FMLA for all people. But we need every person who cares about American families to join this struggle. What will our legacy be? Will we improve upon the FMLA by allowing all people to honor their family commitments? Will our sons and daughters have job-protected, paid time off to care for us? Will we expand the FMLA to ensure coverage for our most vulnerable families: single women, people of color and low-wage workers? The ball is in our court, America!

When using AjaxSubmitLink, and the markupid for a wicket element is not explicitly set, AjaxSubmitLink will not work with internet explorer. When clicking on your AjaxSubmitLink while running Internet Explorer, nothing will happen.
Here is an example:
html file:
<img wicket:id="img_unlock" >
java file:
ContextImage unlockImage = new ContextImage("img_unlock", new Model("pathtoimage/unlockedgray.png"));
Since the id attribute is not set, wicket will now generate the output id id="id". For some reason AjaxSubmitLink in Internet Explorer does not understand this (Firefox does). Here is the HTML output:
<img class="ajaximg" src="../pathtoimage/unlockedgray.png" onClick="var wcall=wicketSubmitFormById('i3', '../?wicket:interface=:2:new_loancase:application_form:header:img_unlock::IActivePageBehaviorListener:0:1&wicket:ignoreIfNotActive=true', null,null,null, function(){return Wicket.$$(this)&&Wicket.$$('i3')}
The solution is to explicit add the markupid, like this:
Would it not be better if wicket automatically generated another name for the id attribute than "id"? Can this be done? Or is there a workaround I am not aware of?
- All
- Comments
- Work Log
- History
- Activity
- Transitions
for a release date you should ask on the list
re hexing: yes, it is to shorten the id values
Okay, thanks. When is the release date for that fix? Currently our fix is to overwrite the Component class and remove the hexing. That worked.
Could you tell me why you use the toHexString method please? Why not just convert the number over to a string? Is it just to avoid long numbers? Just curious.
in 1.3 branch and trunk the prefix is "id" not "i" so this should no longer happen
Checked the 1.3.4 code, the problem still remains.
I debugged through the method:
public String getMarkupId(boolean createIfDoesNotExist) in the class Component.java
...and found the bug. When Wicket executes this piece of code:
String markupIdPostfix = Integer.toHexString(generatedMarkupId).toLowerCase();
You will get "d" returned when 13 is the generatedMarkupId number. The method will then finally return "id" as the markupId!
10 will return "a", 11 will return "b", 12 will return "c" and so on.
Why do you hex the numbers?
And how can we get around this? We are going into production with our web application and need a fix/workaround as soon as possible.
i am not sure, you should try 1.3.4 and the latest snapshot as well...
Before I provide a quickstart, I would like to mention that I am running Wicket version 1.3.3. Is this number appending something new in 1.3.4?
can you provide a quickstart please? looking at the code in component#getmarkupid(boolean) it looks like the id will always have a number appended to it, so wicket should never generate "id" id, but rather "id0" id...
Here is someone who had the same problem, posted recently:

Baseball brawl brings bevy of bad broadcasts
The old saying goes that any publicity is good publicity, but in this case university officials may disagree with that notion.
UALR and UCA's baseball teams garnered media attention for a dugout-clearing brawl on April 2 at the University of Central Arkansas' Bear Stadium.
Not only did the game receive in-state coverage on KATV and KTHV nightly newscasts, but it also caught the national attention of ESPN and has been widely viewed via internet feeds.
The cause of all the attention? In the 10th inning of the game between the UALR Trojans and UCA Bears, the head coaches from both teams had a heated exchange on the field that led to a close face-to-face argument. When UCA assistant coach Trent Kline joined in, Coach Norwood was knocked down and the UALR team ran to his defense. This was followed by the UCA bench and about a minute of mayhem. It took about another minute for the teams to be separated.
The fact that UCA won the game 5-4 after UALR led 4-0 was mostly a side note to the fight and its aftermath. The incident led to the suspension of eight individuals for varying lengths of time. Four players from UALR were suspended for at least four games each. Three players and the assistant coach from UCA were suspended for at least four games. Additionally UCA head coach Allen Gum suspended himself for a game, according to his statement.
Both coaches gave their obligatory damage-control statements in the days following the incident. UALR head coach Scott Norwood delivered his message a day after the game and Gum followed with his own the following day. The announcement of the suspensions took place in the time between the two coach's statements.
In a press conference that took place in front of several members of the local media outlets and UALR's Communications Director Judy Williams (Athletic Director Chris Peterson was away dealing with family matters), Coach Norwood expressed his remorse about the incident.
"It's something that we take very, very seriously and it's something that I do as well," he said.
"I think it's also an embarrassment to this university and something I think we'll be able to correct very quickly," he continued citing the effect on the school's student athletes and fans. "I deeply regret that this has happened."
No questions were allowed after the coach's roughly two minute statement and school officials have expressed caution at allowing anyone to discuss the matter further with the coaching staff or members of the team. However, the damage was already done as video of the fight made its rounds on newscasts throughout the state.
There were several videos of varying quality available, but one of the best was taken by UCA senior Spencer Griffin, who was filming the game when the altercation broke out.
"I knew it was trouble whenever you saw him (Norwood) coming out and then Coach Gum and him getting close together," Griffin said. "Usually it's just between coaches or players and the umpires, but when it gets between two coaches and they got face to face and then Norwood went down and it all escalated from there."
Griffin also expressed concern with how close the melee got to the fans when it moved to the backstop. "Right on the netting is a little scary, because you don't know how close the fans are going to get. Luckily nobody was injured or anything and they dispersed after that," he said.
The media attention that this has attracted may not be the kind that the school seeks, but it insures that the upcoming game on April 23 at Hogan Field will have a larger audience than normal. That is when the UCA Bears visit the UALR Trojans.

Steamboat City Council asked to place sales tax question on ballot
July 15, 2011
Steamboat Springs — The Steamboat Springs City Council is expected to consider a resolution Tuesday that would put the question of a .25 percent sales tax to support winter airline service before voters in November.
Steamboat Ski and Resort Corp. President Chris Diamond made the case Thursday for the new tax, which he said would allow the resort community to gradually rebuild the capacity of the ski season air program, which has lost 44,340 seats since the winter of 2007-08.
Diamond told about 40 people gathered for the annual summit of the Yampa Valley Airport Authority that the revenue guarantees demanded by airlines to fly direct to Yampa Valley Regional from major hub cities during the four primary months of ski season is rising dramatically while traditional revenues are in decline.
Neither the language of the resolution to put the question to voters, nor any proposed ballot language, was available at City Hall on Thursday.
City Council President Pro Tem Jon Quinn said although he and other council members have attended informational community gatherings about the proposed tax measure, Tuesday night will be the first time the City Council will see the full proposal. He said he expects it to include sunset plan that would, if the tax were approved this year, send it back to voters in five years.
City Finance Director Deb Hinsvark said Thursday that the tax, if approved, will collect 25 cents on every $100 spent. She said it would raise the overall sales tax in Steamboat from 8.4 percent to 8.65 percent and estimated that the new tax would raise $1 million to $1.3 million in its first year.

Although she stepped back from discussing the tax proposal during its formulation, she said she thinks if the question goes to voters it will be straightforward.
Moment of realization
Diamond said he experienced an epiphany right after the Christmas holidays last ski season.
"It was Jan. 4, and we'd had a decent Christmas despite some frigid weather," Diamond said. "We looked ahead at (reservations) pacing, and we were 6 percent off.
"I'm looking at the broader community and saying, 'How the hell are we going to come out of this recession?' It's not going to be construction. It's not going to be real estate. And summer is summer — we're about as full as we can be," Diamond said.
He said he began meeting with business leaders to look into new sources of revenue and then backed off and turned the project over to the Steamboat Springs Chamber Resort Association.
Historically, Ski Corp. took the full brunt of the revenue guarantees needed to secure ski season airline service while the Chamber solicited donations from member businesses that peaked at about $250,000.
Intent on finding a more secure and productive funding source, the resort community successfully proposed in 2005 the creation of a local marketing district to add a 2 percent lodging tax devoted to the airline program that captures most of the guest lodging district.
Ski area Airline Program Director Janet Fischer told Thursday's gathering that the marketing district generated close to $1.5 million in its best year, but receipts have dropped 30 percent in the past two years.
Fischer said airline mergers that have reduced competition, reductions in aircraft fleets and the volatility of oil prices have all contributed to increased contract demands by the airlines. And they would never fly to a small leisure market like Steamboat without minimum revenue guarantees because routes into bigger cities that are traveled by business fliers are more lucrative.
YVRA received 118,360 inbound seats in ski season 2010-11, with the maximum cost capped at $2.69 million. The inbound seats were down 14 percent from 138,000 the previous winter, which was down 13 percent from the winter of 2008-09.
Next winter, the airline program hopes to bump inbound seats modestly to 122,700, but the maximum cost the resort must plan for has gone up to $3.35 million.
In a good year, airline revenues will be sufficient that the Fly Steamboat program won't pay the full $3.35 million, Fischer said, but it still must budget for the larger figure.
She predicted in January 2009, when there were 165,000 inbound airline seats, that the airline program might begin eating into its $1 million reserve fund in 2010-11. However, she said Thursday that United Airlines' decision last winter to add more seats over and above its contracted amount resulted in a better financial performance than expected for Fly Steamboat, and the reserves haven't been depleted.
Diamond said the .25 percent tax proposal was calculated to generate similar amounts to the figure Ski Corp. guarantees annually to support the airline program and the amount generated by the local marketing district lodging tax. The new tax would result in roughly one-third, one-third, one-third shares among the community, lodging properties and Ski Corp, he said.
Quinn said that in his mind, should City Council decide either Tuesday or at its lone August meeting on Aug. 2 to send the tax proposal to the voters, it doesn't necessarily signal its endorsement of the plan.

Zero Punctuation: Aliens: Colonial Marines
Pages PREV 1 2 3 4 5
I was in Best Buy a few weeks ago looking for something to spend my rewards certificate on, and the employee working in the game department suggested this game. LOL I picked it up and looked at it and put it right back down when he had his back turned. I knew it was more than likely trash before I even watched this review. The part about the glitching was hilarious.
Every few years you need a game so horrid, so broken yet so reasonable sold that it will be remembered. And Aliens wins this title for this round. I think there is no gamer out there that thinks this title is any good. Though I can see the Co-op being played online for laughs.
Seriously.. so it makes us laugh. that is worth something to right? At least it is utterly terrible.. but you shall remember it being so horrible bad indeed. Unlike some other titles that are just mediocre..
So I put this one nicely in that lovely list of memorable moments in gaming. Okay it can't beat Superman 64 but that is only beaten by ET so. Come on.. this is nice in this box.
Honestly I don't think the game itself is terrible enough to be a memorable moment in gaming, but similar to Mass Effect 3's ending it is the proof that a developer lied to its consumers that may give Colonial Marines a spot in gaming history.
I didn't get nearly as many bugs as people have posted here, but in some way I kinda wished I had, at least it would have made it more entertaining. All I played was an extremely mediocre game that from what we had been shown prior should have been great. And as a big fan of the Alien franchise I felt more disappointed than I should have.
On the bright side, ditching this game made me return to AVP2 for PC, which still has a small but decent online playerbase (unlike AVP2010). Then I remembered why of all the countless games I've played I rank AVP2 2nd best of all time.
I had the BEST glitch in history.
The place I had (verbally) preordered the game from, over the phone, apparently forgot to put it into the system.
So I ended up not buying the game.
Aah, Weyland-Yutani: Because Umbrella had to get their ideas from Somewhere...
They look random and not attached because they were written from left to right, the opposite of how Arabic is supposed to be written :) Otherwise, it's actually spelled correctly.
Buggier than a big bug, bugging out in a dune buggy and the following frame had me sniggering loudly at work XD
Threadomancy go!
Okay I finally got this from gamefly, cause I had to see the train wreck. this was also AFTER the massive patch, so I admit my perspective is colored.
Post Patch though i gotta admit, this was not the shitload of fuck that I expect the AVGN to be reminiscing about 10 years from now. The level "The Raven" was out of context and annoying as hell, I could have done without it (and never intend on playing it again) but the rest of the game was passable as an Aliens game.
I just don't understand why they didn't just have you play as Ripley.The generic idea here of playing either the aliens or marines seems kinda dull.Let me play as Ripley or the Alien Queen and you can shut up and take my money.Are we so afraid of male gamers who won't ever play as a woman that that even means chucking out the baddest ass female protagonist of all time? Or perhaps it was a likeness / rights issue? Anyhoo for me an Aliens game without Ripley is no fun at all.
I only signed back in for the first time in a couple of years just to say that when I got the game it wasn't so bad. Not trolling. For a fiver, it was good enough.
