My Sweet (brief) Romance in A Land Called Nha Trang...
Nha Trang Travel Blog› entry 1 of 1 › view all entries
December 19th, 2008 – by: borneonikieta
Then I heard a commotion outside the door. The lobby was not that big so I could see with a clear view of what's happening outside as the wall was entirely made of glass. A caucasian man, from the look of it was a little bit drunk, was arguing with a motorbike rider, something about the rider asking for more money and the guy refused to give him more cause he thought he already paid enough.
Cute guy I said to myself. The argument lasted for about 10 minutes then it was all settled but I was not sure how. The guy walked in, still talking in disbelief that the rider of what just happened to him. Cheapskate, I said to myself...but a cute cheapskate hehe, I tried my best not to smile. Then he sat next to me. My heart started to race for some unknown reason (no that was a lie, the reason was very obvious…he was hot!). Then I heard him muttering something but was not really sure if it was meant for me. Sorry? I said. He was asking me where I was from (cheap pick up line haha) then I told him that I was from Brunei. Where?? he said with his face slightly exaggerated from curiosity. I gave him a brief geography lesson of the whereabout of my country (the same way I did for the other 20 people who asked me the same question when I was in Saigon).
Cool he said. I was not sure if he was really clear of the location of my country, but nevermind, he was cute and now he was talking to me...progress!. After a few seconds of awkward silence, he asked me a question that was so hard to believe I had to pause for a few minutes before I gave him my answer.
Mr.D: Hey, I have a nice room with like two single beds. Would you like to share it with me 'cos that would really help me a lot. It has a spa too and it's only like 8 USD per nite.
A few moments of disbelief and pleasantly shocked at the same time....8 USD?! now that is cheaper than what my tourguide was charging me for my room there!
Me: Hmm...Are you sure? I don't even know your name.
Mr. D: I'm D.
Me: I'm Nikie.
Mr. D: So would you like to share my room?
Me: Hmm...is it really okay? are you safe? (stupidly giggling) I mean I don't even know you.
Mr. D: Trust me...I am a good person.
Me: Can I see your room first?
Mr. D: yeah let's go.
Then we went up the elevator, the room was on the 5th floor. I was not quite sure if this was really happening, but there I was standing next to this Aussie bloke...yeah he was from Australia, Sydney. I remember my heart was racing as we got closer to the room.
The room was nice, with two single bed, one was messy with the bed was still unmade (he was probably sleeping in it) and the other was messier covered with his clothes. Wow...very unimpressive. Then he showed me the spa, not really a spa, just a triangular shaped bathtub with no shower curtain.
Me: Okay, I will agree on sharing this room with you but you have to promise me that nothing bad is going to happen...right?
Mr. D: I promise.
So we went back to the lobby. The receptionist was not very happy when she heard the news (I think she was disappointed with the prospect of losing several dollars due to our new "arrangement").
After unpacking my stuff and establishing the borderline of the room (I got the right side where his clothes used to spread...but now he just put his clothes all over the floor on his side of course...MEN.), we headed out for breakfast. I hadn't showered yet but I was also craving for some coffee. Washed my face and put on some fresh top and I was fresh again like lillies. So went outside, passing every motorbiker who offered a ride for some dongs, each of them we had to turn down cause we were too engrossed with our conversation trying to get to know each other more. I told him I was in Brisbane last year as well as Sydney but preferred Brisbane better. He told me that he was 25. That made me stop breathing for a few seconds...25! oh my god! I'm 31 for god sake! (I suddenly felt like Samantha from Sex and the City) He couldn't believe it when I told him my real age and said that I could pass to be in my early 20s (yeah right). He was just on his trip to travel around the world after finishing his study.
We finally stopped at an open air cafe. I ordered a cup of Vietnamese coffee (I wanted a regular one but they ran out) and Mr. D ordered a cup of coffee and a tiger beer. He was having a hangover and was ordering more beer. I told him that I wouldn't know how to handle a drunk person, but he assured me that he was not going to get drunk (yeah right)...and he wasn't. We carried on with our conversation until suddenly an old vietnamese guy appeared and joined us. We both didn't know but we felt sorry for his appearance and his figdety hands that we let him sat with us. He told us that when the Vietnam was happened he was very small. He used to work for the US army so that explained his good command in English. However, he was jobless now and on his spare time he worked as a tour guide who came to Nha Trang. Mr. D was the type of guy who when you look at first sight you must think that he was a punk but when you get to know him really well, he was just a boy next door who was very pleasant to talk to and always nice to people. He bought the poor guy a beer. Mr. D was looking quite happy and the vietnamese guy was really entertaining us with his stories, and then later with his songs...which was okay at first until Mr. D started singing too...boy that was embarrassing. Everyone was looking at us and just to hide my embarrassment, I covered my face with the shoal that I brought along with me (the wind was kinda cold that morning). A lady sitting at the other table saw how embarrassed I was and smiled at me. Lucky for me that nobody knows me in Nha Trang so what the heck I said to myself. I gave them an applause after they finished singing (and they ordered some more beers too...). After like an hour at the cafe we decided to move on. The vietnamese guy asked for some money to buy food, Mr. D refused at first but in the end, he gave him around 100,000 dong...what a lovely guy I said to myself.
We walked around the town and he was asking more questions about me. Then out of the blue, he asked me if he could hold my hand. OH MY GOD!!! 48 hours ago I was ripped off by a tour guide and was almost attacked by a bat, and now this handsome guy from Australia was asking if he could hold me hand... this can't be happening. Then we hold hands. WOOHOO!!! my heart was like leaping if only he could see how my chest was thumping. But I acted cool, of course if you could see my face then you would know that I was a very happy woman that day. After 31 years, no guy has ever asked me if he could hold my hand (okay that might sound pathetic but the point I am trying to make here is that I was really happy that fine morning in Nha Trang).
We walked around the town..twice.
Then we got back to our hotel room. I reminded him of our agreement (saying that we wouldn't be going to bed together which he agreed on). I took a shower...finally... and changed into my fresh clothes. He just kept saying that I was hot (you have no idea how hot I am lol). I just gave him a contented smile and lied in my bed. Then we talked some more and just when I thought things couldn't get any better, Mr. D asked if I would mind kissing with him. (Somebody pinch me). I was a little hesitant about this one for a very good reason: What if he wanted more than just a kiss?
He was very persuasive and I was very curious so before I knew it, we kissed. And boy that guy really know how to kiss. I was like screaming inside and I felt like my soul was jumping out of my skin. The kiss ended for a few minutes then after that I just had to stop him, worried if he was going to pursue for something more.
Around lunch hour I asked him if he would like to have lunch. He said he was hungry and so was I. So we went out again, hand in hand, looking for a nice place to eat. We ended up in a very nice open air restaurant with lots of tourists...that must be a good sign. I ordered some vegetarian dish and he ordered his lunch and guess what .. more beer (is this an aussie thing?) over lunch we had a good laugh exchanging jokes.
My joke:
A mortician was preparing a body of Mr. Bill for cremation. He was shocked when he saw the size of his sexual organ and decided to cut it off for collection. He went home and showed it to his wife. Then the wife screamed "Oh my god is Bill dead??"
Mr. D's joke:
One day an aborigine was blowing his horn (I forgot the name of that instrument). He played the didgerydoo for hours. God was watching him from heaven and decided test him by taking away half of his brain. The aborigine kept on playing on his horn. Then God took half of what was left of his brain, still the aborigine played on with his instrument. Then God decided to take all of his brain, the aborgine stopped and started singing the Hakka.
I laughed (I actually got the joke) and he was surprised that I got it. No offence if you are a kiwi.
After lunch we wanted to go on a cable car ride. He called for a motorbike, and (ok this is funny and dangerous at the same time) both of us got on it. So it was like an acrobatic show only the chance of getting fined by a police was really high. So I was sitting sandwiched by Mr. D and the rider...when I think of it again...that was probably the silliest thing on the road that day.
The cable car was proved to be too expensive for us, so we changed our plan. The rider was very helpful and persistent on trying to please us, so he took us to an amazing place. Somewhere in Nha Trang, there was a secluded beach. No one would know that place unless some local take you there. The beach was beautiful and best of all very quiet. We sat together, him sipping on his beer and me just happy and enjoying every second in his arm. I just sat there quietly recording every moment that was happening that day.
It was getting dark and we decided to head back to the hotel. He asked me if I would like to go out with him that night and I agreed openheartedly. I took a shower and changed to the only best dress I had with me during the trip. 15 minutes later I got out of the shower, and there he was, Mr. D looking ever so peaceful, snoring his way to never never land. Oh well, things can never get any better and I changed back to my short and top and sleep in my bed.
The next day, we both woke up and he asked me why I didn't wake him last night. I told him I didn't want to disturb him and I remembered he told me that he hadn't slept since the night I arrived in Nha Trang. He was quiet that whole day, and I didn't want to ask him why. My plan was to stay in Nha Trang for only a night then fly up to Hanoi. Probably we both didn't want to get too attached so that it would be easier to say good bye.
We spent almost the whole day in our hotel room except for lunch. Time went by really fast especially when you are having fun. On the last day of my stay in Nha Trang, we exchanged our emails and bid each other farewell. He kissed me for the last time and wished me good luck in Hanoi.
At some points, I do wonder what would've happened if I woke him up that night.
PS - We never contacted each other eversince I left Nha Trang.

"Dear Footwear Staff,
I bought these hard-to-find shoes for my brother who is stationed overseas. He just received them and he loved them. I am happy because I had looked everywhere for these specific MBT shoes (my brother happens to be very picky and fussy about his shoes) and it was only until I ran into Footwear etc. that I found what he wanted, according to his instructions.
I am so happy with the purchase that I will shortly buy him another pair of MBT's, which as he says are the best solution for his lower back pain. Also, I loved the professional way Footwear etc. helped me solve a slight problem we had with my European Credit Card, and well, companies like Footwear etc. are a living proof that ethical, efficient business are the real American way.

A/N: Written for myrrhmonkey96 's Suffering from Writer's Block? Challenge.
Yes, I have been.
129- "For a long time after that winter..."
11- "A funny thing happened on my way to..."
21- "Today, I will..."
4- "There was once a chance I didn't take"
"Um Professor?" Hermione asked nervously, shuffling into the kitchen of Grimmauld Place where Lupin currently resided, sipping at some tea and reading the Prophet, looking worn out.
Lupin had to smile despite himself. "I haven't been that for...some years now Hermione. I keep telling you to call me Remus."
She grinned back sheepishly. "Sorry Prof- Remus... Old habits."
"I quite understand." He replied, sipping a bit more, giving room for her to ask what was so clearly on her mind.
"Well, Remus." She said, still looking embarrassed, though they were alone. To cover up her awkward silence, she took a seat across from him, but remained staring at her hands.
"I- uh." She cleared her throat. "You might've noticed, I'm not sure how it must seem to others, but well..." And she rushed on so that Remus barely caught, "Well-I-actually-like-Ron-just-a-bit."
This time Lupin forced himself not to smile. Of course he knew, who didn't?
"I know." She nodded, growing beet-red under the older man's gaze. "The thing is, well I need some advice."
"And you've come to me?" Lupin was... honored, but perplexed. Why not Tonks? Or Molly? Even Fleur occasionally flitted by.
At this the girl seemed to grow even redder. "Well Remus... I knew."
"Knew?" Remus' mouth seemed to dry. She could be talking about anything, nothing to fret over. "Knew what?"
"A-about you and Sirius."
Lupin felt a need to avert his own eyes. "Oh." He repeated. "You knew." She was a very smart girl... how could she not? The signs were all there, just no one looked.
"I didn't tell anyone." She hurried on.
"Doesn't matter." Remus said, whispered really, feeling his own face heat up. "Not now that he's gone." Not now that he left me alone in this world, he added mentally in scorn. Remus did not even need to feel the wetness sizzle on his face to know he'd let a tear slip. He wiped his eyes, ashamed, and let Hermione continue.
"I'm sorry." She added, but with a nod from Lupin she went off her own thought train. "Ron obviously isn't... the ambitious type. I just feel that if I don't do something, I'll miss a chance." She concluded in a mumble, but she made her intention clear.
"There was once a chance I didn't take..." He whispered, looking up into Hermione's anxious, yet nervous, face.
"Well," he cleared his throat, taking solace from her determined mindset. "It was the winter of our sixth year. Hogsmeade visits, you know. The heart and soul of living at Hogwarts for over-third years and non-Quidditch players- like Sirius and I."
For a second Lupin considered just stopping there. Reliving the memories seemed painful enough, but reliving them under the pretext of telling someone not to follow his footsteps- to learn from his mistakes- was possibly unbearable. But he felt it was the right thing to do, almost as if Pads was urging him to continue. Willing others NOT to make their decisions.
"We were all ready to go. Peter, Sirius, James and I, each sat upon our own goals." He swallowed at an overpowering lump in his throat and continued. It was not a painful memory he was reliving, so why was he sad? Was it because he alone remained true to the Marauders bond? That he WAS alone, truly and utterly?
"James probably trying to serenade Lily- who knows, wacky brain of his." Remus smiled reminiscently. "Me to buy some Zonko's for an early present for those pranksters in our group. Who knows with Peter. Sirius was different though...
"Anyways. A funny thing happened on my way to the Hogwarts village. Would you believe it? I fell in love.
"You should have seen him. Oh I was so foolish. Breathless. A bloody arse I might've been, wouldn't've made any difference.
"I took to calling him my Angel after that, even if he did despise it. He saved me though. Sirius did, my Pads. On those days I would've rather died than live with myself, with what I was. And he was always there. Talking me off my cliff. Talking my hands off the wand. Living with myself wasn't so hard when I was with him."
At this the girl gave a small mutter of, "that's horrible," but let Lupin continue without contempt.
"They way the snow fell in his hair, that lovely dark hair. Oh I could get lost in that hair." And for a second Moony was transported back to the days spent combing nimble fingers through the cologne smelling locks. The closeness seemed to soothe Lupin on even the days before the full moon. A warm body. His.
"His thick lashes. Little cold flecks against his face, heating up. It was so refreshing, watching him be joyful. He enjoyed himself that day. Well he told me it was because I was there, and that was all the reason he need. I didn't believe him.
"That was my reason too."
Remus saw the boys face swim in his eyes, imprinted on the backs of his eyelids. His face broke in that heart shattering smile, his red nose, a flush coloring his cheeks. He looked at peace with the world. If he'd sprouted wings Lupin would not have been surprised. Completely angelic.
Yet Lupin had only just realized these dormant feelings in the snow on his way to Hogsmeade. How long had these feelings festered?
But then he was back in Grimmauld Place. The place his Padfoot had hated, despised, so much. He was ashamed again. Ashamed that he'd let himself remain here. It was so wrong. Even without the other man with him, in his arms.
"For a long time after that winter I couldn't breathe. I couldn't function. Not do a single thing. I needed him.
"It was all I could do to stop myself staring, dreaming. Just grab him there and yell some sense into him. Ask him why he was stalling, what he was waiting for."
'Just the right moment.'
'Why not every moment you struck me breathless; heartbroken?'
'Were there many?'
And his Pads had been so innocent, so helpless. They were two young boys fighting against their feelings to wait for the other, and it tore at Remus every minute of every day.
They had wasted so much time in the act of not acting.
How much time could they have had together?
He sighed and pulled himself from the candied memory. He hadn't wanted this to happen. There sat Hermione, a tear in her own eye, and it seemed to strengthen Lupin's resolve from the inside out. A glowing light. She needed to know, to take her chance.
He leaned forward. "I want you to go to him, Hermione. Take your chance. Don't wonder years from now what could've been. Please."
The young girl wiped hastily at her own cheek and looked to him. "I will Remus." She got up and smiled down at him in an affectionate way, like someone who could feel the same pain. "Today I will..."

October 30th, 2007, 06:08 PM #1iPhone, lookout...Google Phone in the Works (Update - Launches Soon)
Google in talks with Verizon on mobile push: WSJ
By John Letzing
Oct 30, 2007 17:55:00 (ET)
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Google Inc. is in discussions with Verizon Wireless to bring cell phones to market customized for Google's software, according to a report Tuesday in the online edition of The Wall Street Journal.
Google (GOOG, Trade ) is in "serious discussions" with Verizon (VZ, Trade ) to bring phones to market on Verizon's network that contain Google operating system software and applications, the report said.
Google is expected to make an announcement related to its mobile plans in the next two weeks and hopes to have customized phones on the market by the middle of next year, the report said.
Verizon may see Google-powered phones as a means to better compete with rival AT&T Inc. (T, Trade ), which offers Apple Inc.'s popular iPhone, the report said.
In addition, the report said, Verizon might see the move as economically attractive, as Google would likely charge licensing fees for its software that are lower than the industry standard.
A partnership between Google and Verizon would be surprising, as the two companies have argued publicly over the use of wireless spectrum and cell-phone services.
Google has pressed the Federal Communications Commission to make a portion of valuable spectrum up for auction in January open to devices and applications outside of those offered by the spectrum's owner. Verizon meanwhile has argued against the move and has sued the FCC to prevent it.
Verizon, however, recently dropped that lawsuit. A Verizon spokesman said that the dropping of the suit and any talks with Google are unrelated, according to the report.best,

Back then, Google was just exploring bandwidth options...now it's exploring partnerships...it's soooo close, I can't wait to see what happens! I think such a move would really give mobile marketing the kick in the arse it needs to really get going.

Why verizon???? Well besides the market share.
They are a dying breed with their CDMA technology / network. Although CDMA transfer speed is higher than GSM, you can't take your phone and travel to another country and/or moving from one network to another with your cell phone is much tougher.Eric Ewe

Hmmm there are reports that there are already G phones being used.
I don't see why Google has to go partners with anyone. They should just buy Verizon outright.

both my apple and google stock are screaming, have made a ton in the last 2 months.
together, competing, i think they're going to really shake up the phone industry and a lot more.

A Dream Come True: U.S. Approves the First Google Phone
The F.C.C. posted certification documentation on its Web site. The documents confirm is the name of the new Dream. Most important, though: with the smartphones certification behind it, it is possible for T-Mobile, the nations No. 4 wireless carrier, to go ahead with plans to debut the phone next month and begin selling it ahead of the Christmas shopping season.
This will be fun to watch. Iphone vs. Google Dream Phone. Two heavyweights going at it.

why would a phone based on Google software and full of ads be competition for the iPhone.
If anything the Sprint Instinct by Samsung is more competition and the millions already sold by Sprint proves that.

I have to say Im not normally a Apple product kind of guy (I even avoided the iPod for years sticking to Sony brands) but I just got an iphone as a gift and Im well impressed with it lots of cool features and function.
With the Google phone though Im not sure, I mean Google is free software and as a search engine there great (personally my favorite easy to read / view results and all that) but would you want that type of soft ware on a phone that cost what 200-400 dollar, if theyre giving the phone away then Id think about it but otherwise I wouldn't want a Google phone (even the Microsoft software would be better in my opinion).Rufus Bazley,

That site doesn't look like a Google type site, the layout, design, Adwords ads on the bottom. Saw this one - http://htcdream.com/
Going to check who owns them. After checking whois, doesn't like like Google owned domains. So don't think they have an official site up yet for it.

T-Mobile Android-powered phone to launch September 23rd
Or end of October actually:
"Availability is expected by the end of October, though well know for sure come September 23rd. The G1 will be presented by both Google and T-Mobile, so be sure to point your browser to live.androidcommunity.com at 10:30 EDT for the breaking news as it happens. "
Actually nothing really new as far as news since last time this thread was updated: "the nations No. 4 wireless carrier, to go ahead with plans to debut the phone next month (this month) and begin selling it ahead of the Christmas shopping season." (October it looks like)

According to this, it ships October 13th and is in stores October 17th. Also, toward the bottom of the article it shows projected units shipping around 600k-700k. Who knows if that is first week, first month or what. They left that important detail out.
Is it really just going to be called "G1"? That is quite plain.

It's easy to be really precious about what we're putting out in the world—namely: our blogs. Or, on the flipside: being nonchalant about it–thinking it's okay to just throw up any old post, because: who's going to read it anyway?
Neither way of doing things is a good idea. Not if you want the content you're creating to fit in to your bigger picture business plans.
Unless you're writing a diary-style blog that you don't share with anyone else, your blog doesn't exist on it's own. It's tied to your brand. So, we need to think about your blog being part of a larger business plan—not just floating around willy-nilly.
One of the things that I've realized over the years is that I was working with someone else's assumptions about what a blog could or should be. Also—the oohs and ahhs from the peanut gallery when I received new products to try out or invitations to media events? I took those too much to heart. Only I knew how much time and effort it took to write about each thing, promote it, and the overall value of whatever it was relative to what I put in to it.
I felt guilty when I didn't have at least one blog post up per day, even as I was in university and working part-time. How did it feel when I gave in to the pressure to blog more frequently than I wanted to? Or when I caved and signed up for yet another blogging challenge? Sometimes, I felt pushed (in a good way), but mostly I felt like blogging was a chore. That is so not how I want to feel about blogging—never again!

First time travelling to Perlis so we don't know where we should have our dinner tonight. I googled the best restaurant must try. Restoran Api Api Ikan Bakar was on top of the rank. As I went through all the feedback from other customers, most of them were good responds. We all agreed to have dinner there. It took 15 minutes from our hotel but whatever it for the sake of dinner.
We arrived there before sunset so we had opportunity to enjoy the view of Perlis. The best about these restaurant was all about the fishes and seafood. They have varieties of seafood but I'm allergic to that -_- so I won't care about their names as well. The highlight was they were caught fresh.
That's why its called Api Api Ikan Bakar. You better don't over-burn my fish. I can't eat seafood!!
Menu of the night:
Ikan butter bakar
Lala bakar
Udang butter
Sup sayur
Range price: RM 40++
(depends on your food)
Suddenly just realised about SPM.....
We stopped by to buy some tropical fruit with juicy flesh, MANGOOO. It was on the must-try list so when you come here you have to buy this. It was superb sweet.

Why most men fail with women by talking them right out of liking and dating them, and how you can avoid these simple mistakes and skyrocket your success with women.
In this video coaching newsletter I discuss an email from a viewer who had a great first date with a woman who really liked him… at first. They even kissed at the end of their first date. He met her though an internet dating site. A few days later he texted her to try and arrange a 2nd date. She was unavailable and unsure of her schedule. He correctly told her to call him once she knew her schedule. She said she would. The very next day he texted her. Over the next month he continued to send her pointless texts in his attempt to get her to like him, but he was simply being needy and desperate. Numerous times he told her to contact him when she knew her schedule, and then did not wait for her to do it. He literally talked her right out of dating him. He sent her approval seeking pics of him with US Senators and talked about expensive dates he would take her on, etc. This video newsletter is a classic case of how to fuck up a good thing unnecessarily.

"Attraction is not a choice. Women have no control over the men who they instantly find sexually attractive, any more than men have control over who they instantly find sexually attractive. The problem most men have who are unsuccessful with women is that when they do encounter women where the sexual attraction is mutual, they literally talk these women right out of liking them. Lack of knowledge of pickup, body language, communication, attraction and dating skills, in addition to irrational fear based thinking, is what leads to their failure. In order for men to successfully attract and seduce women who like them, they need to fill in their knowledge gap, practice this new knowledge and continually interact with a steady stream of new women. Success then becomes not a matter of hope, but simply a matter of time. Time and repetition of correct thinking and action will eventually lead to success. My book, "How To Be A 3% Man, Winning The Heart Of The Woman Of Your Dreams," provides the essential knowledge and skills. The rest is up to the unsuccessful man to practice, so he can become easily and effortlessly successful, instead of constantly turning women off and pushing them away." ~ Coach Corey Wayne

Union Pacific to pay huge fine for wildfire
Wed., July 23, 2008
Union Pacific Railroad Co. has agreed to pay $102 million to the U.S. Forest Service for a 2000 wildfire north of Sacramento in a landmark settlement that dramatically increases the stakes in punishing those responsible for setting forest fires.
The settlement announced Tuesday marks the most money the Forest Service has received in a lawsuit and was undergirded by a first-of-its-kind ruling by a federal judge, officials said.
U.S. District Judge Frank C. Damrell Jr. said Union Pacific was not only responsible for the cost of firefighting and lost timber but also for damage to young growth, soil, wildlife, habitat, recreation use and views. Damrell also ruled that the forest was more valuable because it was protected against logging by Congress.
Federal prosecutors said the settlement should send a message that the government is serious about prosecuting those who set wildfires – even if it is by accident.
"We want those individuals or corporations operating lawfully in our national forests to be on notice," U.S. Attorney McGregor W. Scott said. "We're paying attention and very focused about regaining, not just (fire) suppression costs but lost resources to the country."
Five Union Pacific workers were accused of neglecting safety precautions when using power tools to repair track on Aug. 17, 2000, in Plumas National Forest.
Legal experts said the settlement has broad implications because of the judge's view of the forest's value and the high level of liability Union Pacific shared for setting the blaze.
"It's an important development in the law to have courts saying decisions aren't limited to the value of timber," said Sean Hecht, executive director of the Environmental Law Center at the University of California, Los Angeles. "A calculation is now allowed to look at the value of wildlife and the ecosystem. It seems to me that's the correct view; otherwise it's like saying there's no consequence to someone burning land that didn't have saleable timber."

THE Bachelor's Matty J has been forced to detail what really happened the night he spent with Tahitian beauty Elora Murger.
Rumours ran wild in August that the hunky Bach had sex with the 27-year-old fitness trainer during an overnight date at Spicers Sangoma Retreat in the Blue Mountains, NSW.
But Matty J has since quashed all speculations today.
"Did I sleep with Elora? I did not, no," he confirmed to KIIS FM this morning.
"Look you know it's, um, when you have a really great date with somebody and you know, the option is there it does enter your mind but it was an easy decision in the end to say no to that and to be in separate rooms."
Matty J made the confession in front of winner Laura Byrne, who laughed off the suggestion on air but jokingly asked Jackie O whether there was a body language expert to catch out her man if he was lying.
"She's a babe and he's a red-hotted male so I'd expect that there's temptation there but you know," she added.

text: As time goes by, we sometimes run into situations we never forget. These are the situations where serendipity (the act of unexpectedly finding something of value) can play a major role. Wikipedia states: Serendipity means a "happy accident" or "pleasant surprise"; specifically, the accident of finding something good or useful without looking for it. So it seems, serendipity is all a matter of coincidence. But do coincidences really exist? Or is there a higher (hidden) plan that guides us humans into believing we accidently run into coincidences? Either way, what really matters is if you can spot serendipities and act upon them. Social media might increasingly be helpful here. By connecting in social networks, you sometimes discover hidden value in a connection you couldn't have dreamed of before. So the serendipity is all around, waiting to be discovered. Good hunting!

Phoenix, Arizona Personal Injury / Auto Injury Lawyer and Attorney
If you have been injured due to another person's negligence, a Phoenix personal injury or auto injury lawyer may be able to help you recover financially for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Common Injuries
Some of the more common types of injuries a Phoenix personal injury attorney / lawyer would encounter include:
– automobile accidents;
– slip-and-fall injuries;
– medical malpractice;
– nursing home abuse; and
– dog bite injuries.
An attorney may be able to help whenever you can show that a person or company caused your injury by breaching a duty of care.
Comparative Negligence
If the defense can show that you were partly at fault for your injury, your damages may be reduced accordingly. For example, if a jury finds you were 30 percent at fault in a car accident, their award will be reduced by 30 percent. Arizona is a pure comparative negligence state, meaning you can receive some compensation for your injury even if you were 99 percent at fault.
Valuing Your Case
In many Phoenix personal injury cases, the two parties don't dispute that one is at fault, but they value the victim's injuries differently. It is hard to tell at the time of injury what your long-term costs will be. A Phoenix, Arizona personal injury / auto injury attorney or lawyer can help you think of damages you may not have considered, including:
– past and future medical expenses;
– lost wages or benefits;
– property damage;
– permanent disability or disfigurement; and
– emotional distress.
A Phoenix Personal Injury or Auto Injury Attorney Can Help
Although you may be feeling intense financial pressure after your injury, it is important that you don't accept the insurer's settlement offer without first consulting with an attorney. You have already been hurt once; you don't want to be blindsided by future injury-related expenses you didn't anticipate.
A Phoenix personal injury lawyer or attorney can look at the strengths and weaknesses of your case and help you determine whether a settlement offer is fair. If a settlement cannot be reached, a lawyer can also help you try your case.
For a free evaluation, please fill out the form on this page or call Phoenix, Arizona personal injury and auto injury attorney / lawyer Ronald Thomas at (602) 788-1395.

a week and a half and suggestions on how we can help her get stronger. and how long until she will be able to walk. its very difficult she is a big puppy 60 pounds. also and suggestions on how and where to let her go to the bathroom. We been keeping her inside and putting bed pading under her for her to go pee. this is starting to be a big hassel. She tries to walk and takes a few steps and falls. Please any suggestions on how to get her stronger will be appreciated
sort by best latest
My condolences for your loss. I know you're glad she survived. Sometimes doing what is necessary does become taxing, but you're going to have to persevere until the dog is healed.
As for strength, right now she needs rest more than strength. I wouldn't try to push her to walk just yet. Just give her lots of petting and TLC and try to keep her spirits up.

It certainly is a labor of love when it gets to be a hassel. My doggie didn't break 2 legs at once like yours did, but she did break the same leg twice (one break right after the other) and it was a lot of work to keep her still and help her go to the bathroom. Our vet gave us some doggie vitamins to keep her immunity in check and she was on a lot of medicine to keep inflamation down and infection away. It's tough to help her get stronger because it hurts the puppy to move her legs. It may seem like forever before the casts come off and the legs are healed, but it will happen.

The ABC's of Forced Ranking
5 comments:

David, I particularly liked the last 3 paragraphs of your article! Few people are aware that poor preformers were given a year to turnaround their performance... which also means that their managers were made visible in their own performance in developing their staff. "In it together" to support development and accountable for performance.ReplyDelete
I am in full agreement, however I do have a quandary. Our BOD hold us accountable for distributing merit increases and bonus according to individual performance. How do we demonstrate to the BOD that we have followed their direction without having a profile of the merit increase or bonus payments against performance distribution.ReplyDeleteReplies
Scott you ask a great question. Perhaps the answer rest somewhere in the education of the Board as to what defines success is a combination of the results and the behaviours (not just hard number financial results) and redefining, with them, the definition of what is merit. I think that we allow Boards to do things without educating them as a result they either do what they have always done or do what is popular but not necessarily do what is right for the people in the business.Delete
I especially agree with your final graph -- and this paragraph:ReplyDelete
How can trust, respect, integrity, initiative, and teamwork be fostered in such an environment? As I say on my signature: "Loyalty, Judgment, Trust, Ethics, Integrity" = PR Counselor/Strategic Adviser/Synergist. Keep up the good work, Dave.
Great points David. At a minimum, the employee labeling process creates a distraction, and incentivizes self-serving behaviors rather than group-serving behaviors. At worst, it creates a culture of "crabs in a barrel climbing over each other". Hardly a recipe for innovation.ReplyDelete
And, I think the practice is sometimes based on a fatalistic assumption that no matter how good the manager is or how good the performance is, there will still be some junkers.
We know from sports teams -- if you pick the right people and create the right environment, you CAN positively impact performance and achieve times where there are legitimately no LOW performers on the team.
So, forcing great managers to rank, after they have been effectively managing the team, undermines their good work. No matter how good your team has become, you still have to label some as junkers.
We emphasize how demoralizing this is for employees. It actually is for managers as well.

In less than 24 hours last week, Lodi police officers arrested four people driving under the influence of a controlled substance, which they say is not only extremely rare but indicative of a possible increase in prescription drug use.
According to Lt. Tod Patterson of the Lodi Police Department, between late Wednesday afternoon on Jan. 18 and late Friday evening on Jan. 20, four people were arrested were driving under the influence of drugs. And while the police have certainly arrested people for operating a vehicle while intoxicated, Patterson said he could not remember the last time there was such a slew of arrests relating to people driving while completely inhibited by drug usage.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — One person was killed Tuesday when a sport-utility vehicle caught fire on the Grand Central Parkway in Queens.
As 1010 WINS' Al Jones reported, the ramp to the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway from the Grand Central Parkway is often a minefield of potholes. But police said it was a piece of metal on the road that triggered the fireball.

24hours - One Team. One Target. Trailer (2011)
11 November 2011
The 24-Hour Race at the Nuerburgring is known as the world's biggest motorsports event. More than 200,000 fans set up their camp in the Eifel forest and cheer for their heroes in the 210 race cars. Lap after lap. Hour after hour. Day and night. It's the stage for great stories. Sorrow and joy. Excitement and exertion. Drama and emotions. You will hardly find any event that brings the extremes this close together. In the thick of things, last year's winner BMW's two cars and 70 team members. For months, engineers, mechanics and the eight pilots have been preparing for the most important race of the year. The filmmakers Tim and Nick Hahne captured it all with their cameras - from the first test drive to the chequered flag coming down - and accompanied the BMW team on the way to achieving its goal: winning the 24-Hour Race.

This past weekend I had the opportunity to attend the Oklahoma Sugar Art show in Tulsa. This was my first time attending. The show is held with the Tulsa Fair. I had heard that but was not sure what to expect. Once you walk in the Cakes are on one side of the big building and the vendors are all around. There is a lot going on, Food, Music, Games, Roller coasters and much more. For us cake fanatics there is only the Competition cakes a few vendors and demonstrations. I went with Susie Araya we arrived Friday around 4:00p.m. and she did not finish setting up until 8:00 p.m. We returned Saturday to see all the cakes. Once we finished there was really nothing to do, I am not a fair person so we just sat looking at people pass by.I guess it would be nice if you could take your family, the kids would enjoy the fair but for us it was an 8 hour drive and there was no room in the car for someone else. There were tons of people this is a huge fair. Sunday was a crazy day, everyone starting showing up and it was almost impossible to look at the cakes the lines were full. The day went by pretty quick. We sat in the awards room early to get a good spot and stayed there until the awards began at 5:30p.m. This is my favorite part. I was amazed at the amount of prizes given to the contestants. I did not place but received a goodie bag earlier in the day with marvelous molds, first impression molds, Satin ice fondant, Fondarific fondant, Fondx fondant, Fat Daddio's Fondant magazines and other items. I was so surprised that I received something since my entries did not place. Everyone received a goodie bag no matter what if they placed or not. Ok, back to the awards. Kerry was able to gather $200,000 in prizes and cash. The contestants kids and adults all received cash and prizes. There was a special award that she gave out. This award she got to choose who it went to. She picked Elizabeth Dickerson. It was really special, she has been through a lot and it was nice for her to receive $1000. Ms. Dickerson was crying and I was too. When the top 10 were announced my stomach was turning I don't know why, since I was not competing in that category. I guess everyone wants to know who is going to win. Lori Cossou took Grand Prize place and Angela Chin from Austin took runner up.
Overall the show was great experience, I would return to compete. I just need to start with my competition pieces now. When you are going to start working on something important something always happens or you are too busy.
Me with Kerry Vincent
Me with Susie Araya and her Competition Cake. I forgot to mention she received Silver. Silver is just below the top 10 cakes.
My entries at the show Semi professional.
Took Video of the show, Its on Katch.me

Hi, as everyone know it's popular now with crytpcoins like bitcoins. i got some problems with my pool to get it to work.
and i would be forever greatfull if someone could help me out here.
this is a pool for Yacoin mining
the server run
*Yacoind (client)
*pushpool (backend)
*Mmcfe (frontend)
*Ubuntu 10.04.4 (yes i know it's old. but i got a cheap VPS)
*the problem is i only get 50% accept rate on hashes.
*the pool frontend is showing +5000% on real hashpower (i mining at 12khz but pool show i got 450)
*i tested it out with 7 people, with a good hash rate, but did not discover any blocks. so i acutaly don't know if i even mining on the network.

The effect of canopy architecture in the estimation of biophysical parameters from remote sensing data in orchards is studied through the particular case of vineyard canopies. Two different approximations (1D and 3D models) are tested to estimate Leaf Area Index (LAI) from canopy reflectance in a total of 31 points within commercial field plots. The results shows that 1D models are not pertinent to describe canopy reflectance in row structured canopies, while including a 3D description of canopy architecture provided satisfactory results (RMSE=0.19). A simulation study was also carried out to evaluate the contribution of observational parameters in the accuracy of LAI and the fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (fIPAR) estimations from canopy reflectance. The results highlight the effect of rows orientation in the uncertainties in the estimation of both parameters. When sun illuminates perpendicular to rows, the sensitivity of canopy reflectance to fIPAR and LAI is higher, thus providing more accurate estimations than in the case of parallel illumination.

Background: Wine yeasts can produce undesirable sulfur compounds during alcoholic fermentation, such as SO2 and H2S, in variable amounts depending mostly on the yeast strain but also on the conditions. However, although sulfur metabolism has been widely studied, some of the genetic determinants of differences in sulfite and/or sulfide production between wine yeast strains remain to be identified. In this study, we used an integrated approach to decipher the genetic determinants of variation in the production of undesirable sulfur compounds. Results: We examined the kinetics of SO2 production by two parental strains, one high and one low sulfite producer. These strains displayed similar production profiles but only the high-sulfite producer strain continued to produce SO2 in the stationary phase. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that the low-sulfite producer strain overexpressed genes of the sulfur assimilation pathway, which is the mark of a lower flux through the pathway consistent with a lower intracellular concentration in cysteine. A QTL mapping strategy then enabled us to identify MET2 and SKP2 as the genes responsible for these phenotypic differences between strains and we identified new variants of these genes in the low-sulfite producer strain. MET2 influences the availability of a metabolic intermediate, O-acetylhomoserine, whereas SKP2 affects the activity of a key enzyme of the sulfur assimilation branch of the pathway, the APS kinase, encoded by MET14. Furthermore, these genes also affected the production of propanol and acetaldehyde. These pleiotropic effects are probably linked to the influence of these genes on interconnected pathways and to the chemical reactivity of sulfite with other metabolites. Conclusions: This study provides new insight into the regulation of sulfur metabolism in wine yeasts and identifies variants of MET2 and SKP2 genes, that control the activity of both branches of the sulfur amino acid synthesis pathway and modulate sulfite/sulfide production and other related phenotypes. These results provide novel targets for the improvement of wine yeast strains. © 2015 Noble et al.; licensee BioMed Central.

The wine industry needs to know the yield of each vine field precisely to optimize quality management and limit the costs of harvest operations. Yield estimation is usually based on random vine sampling. The resulting estimations are often not precise enough because of the high variability within vineyard fields. The aim of the work was to study the relevance of using NDVI-based sampling strategies to improve estimation of mean field yield. The study was conducted in nine non-irrigated vine fields located in southern France. For each field, NDVI was derived from multi-spectral airborne images. The variables which define the yield: [berry weight at harvest (BWh), bunch number per vine (BuN) and berry number per bunch (BN)] were measured on a regular grid. This data-base allowed for five different sampling schemes to be tested. These sampling methods were mainly based on a stratification of NDVI values, they differed in the way as to whether NDVI was used as ancillary information to design a sampling strategy for BuN, BN, BW or for all yield variables together. Results showed a significant linear relationship between NDVI and BW, indicating the interest of using NDVI information to optimize sampling for this parameter. However this result is mitigated by the low incidence of BW in the yield variance (4 %) within the field. Other yield components, BuN and BN explain a higher percentage of yield variance (60 and 11 % respectively) but did not show any clear relationship with NDVI. A large difference was observed between fields, which justifies testing the optimized sampling methods on all of them and for all yield variables. On average, sampling methods based on NDVI systematically improved vine field yield estimates by at least 5–7 % compared to the random method. Depending on the fields, error improvement ranged from −2 to 15 %. Based on these results, the practical recommendation is to consider a two-step sampling method where BuN is randomly sampled and BW is sampled according to the NDVI values. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.

Carol Haney
Life Path Number 7
Carol Haney was a female celebrity.
She was born on Wednesday December 24th 1924, in New Bedford, Massachusetts, USA,.
Carol Haney is the searcher and the seeker of the truth. She has a clear and compelling sense of herself as a spiritual being. As a result, Carol's life path is devoted to investigations into the unknown, and finding the answers to the mysteries of life.
Haney is well-equipped to handle her task. She possesses a fine mind, and is an analytical thinker, capable of great concentration and theoretical insight. Carol Haney enjoys research, and putting the pieces of an intellectual puzzle together. Once she has enough pieces in place, Carol is capable of highly creative insight and practical solutions to problems.
Carol Haney enjoys her solitude and prefers to work alone. She needs time to contemplate her ideas without the intrusion of other people's thoughts. Carol is a lone wolf, a person who lives by his own ideas and methods. As a result, close associations are difficult for her to form and keep, especially marriage. Haney needs her space and privacy, which, when violated, can cause her great frustration and irritation.
When her life is balanced, however, Carol Haney is both charming and attractive. She can be the life of a party, and enjoy performing before an audience. Carol enjoys displaying her wit and knowledge, which makes her attractive to others, especially the opposite sex.
But Haney has distinct limits. While she is generous in social situations, sharing her attention and energy freely, she is keenly aware of the need to "come off stage" and return to the solitude of her lair. Carol Haney associates peace with the unobtrusive privacy of her world. Therefore, intimacy is difficult for Carol, because she guards her inner world like a mother lion does her cubs.
All this privacy and aloneness can cause isolation and loneliness, however. Carol Haney can be aware of an emptiness in her life, a part of her that yearns for company and close companionship that may be unsatisfied.
If isolation is brought to the extreme, Carol can become cynical and suspicious. She might develop hidden, selfish motives, which people may sense and may cause them discomfort around her. Haney must guard against becoming too withdrawn and independent, thus shutting out the love of others and keeping her from experiencing the true joy of friendship and close companionship.
Carol Haney must especially watch out for selfishness and egocentricity, thinking of herself as the center of the universe, the only person who really matters. Social contact gives Carol perspective on herself and on life, while too much isolation can make her too narrow and even shut off from the rest of the world.
Secretly, Haney may feel jealous of the easy relationships formed by others; she may perceive others as less inhibited than her, or more free to express themselves. She may harshly criticize herself for not being more gregarious, powerful, or capable of greater leadership.
Carol Haney's challenge in life is to maintain her independence without feeling isolated or ineffectual. She must hold fast to her unique view on the world, while at the same time being open to others and the knowledge they have to offer.
With her abilities to learn, analyze, and seek out answers to life's important questions, Carol Haney has the potential for enormous growth and success in life. By the time she reaches middle age, Carol will radiate refinement and wisdom.
Pythagoras loved the seven for its great spiritual potential.
You and Carol
About Carol's Life Path number
If ever there was a single moment of total transformation, it was actually the moment of Carol Haney's birth. In that instant, Carol stepped through a door in time into a new reality - the reality of human life. The most critical number in Haney's numerology chart is based on the date of her birth - the moment when the curtain went up in Carol Haney's life.

Former Iron Maiden Drummer Clive Burr Passes Away At 56, Fans And Musicians React
After years of fighting MS, the drummer has passed away in his sleep aged 56.
Former drummer of heavy metal greats Iron Maiden, Clive Burr, has passed away three days ago after years of fighting multiple sclerosis. As a member of one of the group's earlier lineups, Burr was featured on the first three Maiden albums - the self-title debut, 1980's "Killers" and the breakthrough release "The Number Of The Beast" from 1982.
"We are deeply saddened to report that Clive Burr passed away last night. He had suffered poor health for many years after being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and died peacefully in his sleep at home," the band said in a statement via official website.
"This is terribly sad news. Clive was a very old friend of all of us. He was a wonderful person and an amazing drummer who made a valuable contribution to Maiden in the early days when we were starting out. This is a sad day for everyone in the band and those around him and our thoughts and condolences are with his partner Mimi and family at this time," stated the bassist Steve Harris.
Frontman Bruce Dickinson added that Burr "was a great guy and a man who really lived his life to the full. Even during the darkest days of his M.S., Clive never lost his sense of humour or irreverence."
The unfortunate news immediately reached all parts of the globe, saddening both the fans and musicians, who shared their reactions and condolences.
Slash: "Really sad news; RIP Clive Burr. Played on my fav Iron Maiden records."
Dave Lombardo (Slayer): "Sadness overcame my morning when I heard this news. His style was inspiring and the albums he recorded with Iron Maiden are touchstones of my music education. He played with a particular energy which bought edge and excitement to the Iron Maiden classics. I never got to meet him, but I wish did. The best thing for me to do right now is listen to some classic Iron Maiden. Up the irons!"
David Ellefson (Megadeth): "I was so saddened to hear of Clive Burr passing away today. He was one of my all-time favorite metal drummers. I'm thankful for his music and contributions. My condolences..."
Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine): "RIP Clive Burr, original Iron Maiden drummer, who rocked those first 3 records HARD."
Dave McClain (Machine Head): "Very sad news. One of my favorite drummers and a huge influence on me as a young drummer. To me, he brought punk rock drumming into heavy metal. I can remember walking into the Hemisphere Arena in San Antonio to see Iron Maiden and seeing Clive's white kit on stage. I about crapped my pants! I just stood there in awe looking at the actual kit that I had been staring at on the back of the 'Killers' album cover for the whole summer. I was a happy kid! He will always be an inspiration to my drumming. One of my go-to guys when I'm trying to find different drum fills and beats, or I'll ask myself, 'What would Clive do?'"
Paul Bostaph (Slayer, Testament, Exodus, Forbidden): "I'm truly saddened to hear of Clive Burr's passing. His drumming has had and still has a strong influence on my playing style. I bummed I never go to meet him and thank him in person for his musical gifts. God speed, Clive!"
Richie Faulkner (Judas Priest): "Not a prisoner, I'm a free man, And my blood is my own now, Don't care where the past was , I know where I'm going"
Jeff Waters (Annihilator): "RIP, Clive. One of the best, most original and most underrated drummers ever. His style was unique... his performances on those first three Maiden records influenced the drumming I've been writing for Annihilator all these years and he had me air-drumming my whole metal life... Only Lombardo was air-drummed more by me! Clive was #2 :) I met him once and was a class act. This is a loss of a true legend and innovator. Time to crank up 'The Prisoner.'"
Accept: "R.I.P. Clive Burr. He will be truly missed....he left us with some amazing drumming. Loved his style and sound."
Burr became the member of Iron Maiden in 1979 and was fired three years later during "The Beast On The Road" tour to be replaced by the group's current drummer Nicko McBrain. He formed the Clive Aid charity foundation in 2004, raising awareness and funds for various cancer and MS programs through organizing concert events.

Aladdin's Lamp is the fascinating story of how ancient Greek philosophy and science began in the sixth century B.C. and, during the next millennium, spread across the Greco-Roman world, producing the remarkable discoveries and theories of Thales, Pythagoras, Hippocrates, Plato, Aristotle, Euclid, Archimedes, Galen, Ptolemy, and many others. John Freely explains how, as the Dark Ages shrouded Europe, scholars in medieval Baghdad translated the works of these Greek thinkers into Arabic, spreading their ideas throughout the Islamic world from Central Asia to Spain, with many Muslim scientists, most notably Avicenna, Alhazen, and Averroës, adding their own interpretations to the philosophy and science they had inherited. Freely goes on to show how, beginning in the twelfth century, these texts by Islamic scholars were then translated from Arabic into Latin, sparking the emergence of modern science at the dawn of the Renaissance, which climaxed in the Scientific Revolution of the seventeenth century.
Here is early science in all its glory, from Pythagorean "celestial harmony" to the sun-centered planetary theory of Copernicus, who, in 1543, aided by the mathematical methods of medieval Arabic astronomers, revived a concept proposed by the Greek astronomer Aristarchus some eighteen centuries before. When Newton laid the foundations of modern science, building on the work of Copernicus, Tycho Brahe, Kepler, Galileo, and others, he said that he was "standing on the sholders [sic] of Giants," referring to his predecessors in ancient Greece and in the Arabic and Latin worlds from the Middle Ages through the Renaissance.
CaliphHarun al-Rashid was one of the Muslim rulers who first promoted translating Greek texts into Arabic. His Baghdad is the setting for The Thousand and One Nights, in which Scheherazades's "Tale of Aladdin and His Magic Lamp" reflects the marvels of the new science and the amazing inventions it was said to produce. John Freely's Aladdin's Lamp returns us to that time and brings to light an essential and long-overlooked chapter in the history of science.
As adults, the more literary-minded among us retain precious little from our high school classes in algebra or higher mathematics. (As Marge Simpson confided to daughter Lisa recently, "Since [those days], I haven't been able to do any of the calculus I've encountered in my daily life.") But one bit of linguistic trivia, I've personally found, invariably sticks, if you were lucky enough to have a teacher thus inform your impressionable mind: the fact that the very word "algebra" derives from an Arabic term, al-jabr.
