Welcome to our home on Seconsett Island where you will be surrounded by water wherever you stroll! Just four houses down (minutes walk) is the beautiful warm, sandy ocean beach of Waquoit Bay where you will find scallop shells, clams, oysters, hermit crabs, blue crabs, spider crabs, horse shoe crabs, shrimp, fish and more. Sit on the beach with your family, play in the sand, enjoy frosty beverages and take in the many passing boats, parasailers, kayakers and Martha's Vineyard in the distance. It's quick and convenient to walk back and forth from the beach to the house ~ especially if you have young children. There are several parking spots at the beach should someone in your party require a little extra assistance making it to the beach. While you're heading to the beach grab a rake and basket and join the many Quahogers digging up tonight's dinner (quohogs to make a batch of clam chowder!). Or meander over to Hamblin Pond and cast our crab trap - baited with crab favorites like bacon or chicken - and you will have Blue Crabs galore for dinner. Boil them up and dip into butter! Join islanders for ''happy hour'' to watch the incredible views of the sun setting over Washburn Island - it's a sight to behold.
Seconsett Island is truly a hidden destination and boaters' paradise. Drag our kayaks to the several launch access ways and amble around Hamlin Pond, Waquoit Bay, or explore the many inlets and rivers in the area! Paddle across Seconsett Island over to barrier, uninhabited beaches, like Washburn Island (part of the National Estuary), or paddle over to the back side of awesome South Cape Beach. If you're new to kayaking or an experienced kayaker this is the location for you. So much to explore ~ truly Island Living! If you have a boat, make arrangements with the marina in our back yard - Little River Boat Yard - for deep water access to the Bay and Nantucket Sound. The Vineyard is a quick 15 minutes door to door! Bike or walk around our island for a quiet stroll. The options on the island are endless. When you are done with the days activities wash off all that sand with our new outdoor shower located in the rear of the house. Venture off the island and you'll find the Mashpee Commons 5 minutes away (Gap, Pottery Barn, Williams-Sonoma, Lilly Pulitzer, Talbots, many quaint eateries, a movie theater, Starbucks to name a few) or drive in the opposite direction to explore all that Falmouth has to offer (have you visited The Knob in Quisset Harbor yet?!). The ferry to Martha's Vineyard is 10 minutes away.
We hope you enjoy our home and island as much as we do. It's a pretty spectacular yet little known spot ~ just the way we like it! The house is fully equipped with A/C to handle those hot summer days. The house itself has 2 full kitchens, 2 family rooms and 2 dining areas. Plenty of space for everyone and includes finely appointed amenities. There are 4 main bedrooms with 12 beds (1 sleep sofa) throughout the house. In one of two upstairs bedrooms, you will find 2 hidden trundle beds located beneath the twin beds. There is a queen-sized sleep sofa overlooking the main family room for extra sleep space. On the main floor you will find a master suite with shower and 3 full-size closets. Downstairs there is a queen-sized bedroom. Also located downstairs is a ''bunk room'' for additional guests. We provide soft sheets, bedding and pillows. We ask our guests to bring their own bath towels and beach towels.
If you enjoy sunlight, then this is the home for you with a three-story window facing the water. Glimpse peeks of both Waquoit Bay and Hamblin Pond from our beautiful front deck while sipping your morning coffee. Or step onto the new architect-designed bluestone patio for relaxation. The bluestone patio also includes a custom-built granite fire pit for s'mores or open-coooking meals! There is an enclosed patio off the back of the house. Other activities available in the house include foosball, air hockey and a wii console. There are 2 flat screen TVs in the 2 family rooms, 1 flat screen TV in the master bedroom, and 1 flat screen in a guest bedroom -- all connected to Comcast. There are several traditional board games located in the front closet.

About the Collection
During his 20 years of experience in the beauty industry, Dimitri James was disappointed to learn that very little of the money cosmetics companies spend goes into product development and perfection. Instead, the money is spent on ad campaigns, department store counter space, Park Avenue offices and fancy packaging. Frustrated by his findings, Dimitri was inspired to start changing the beauty industry for the better, launching Skinn Cosmetics in 2002.
Dimitri's focus was to create a collection of quality products that helps consumers avoid big-cost items with no results. Skinn Cosmetics has long since established itself as a revolutionary leader in skin care and cosmetics, offering treatments and color products loaded with anti-aging properties that meet the highest professional and esthetician standards. Each day, new women are discovering the line's amazing results and joining the ranks of Skinn enthusiasts across the nation.
Skinn products are not tested on animals.
About the Guest
Founder and CEO of Skinn Cosmetics, Dimitri James has been a Hollywood makeup artist, aesthetician and cosmetologist for 25 years. He's worked for some of the biggest names in beauty, and has manufactured and sold his own cosmetics for 14 years. Each product is a result of Dimitri's experience and knowledge, and is produced in his own factory for superior quality every step of the way.
Since its founding, Skinn has been dedicated to offering the best color and skin care products available. The line features cutting-edge and anti-aging properties that are free of the unnecessary fillers found in many large cosmetic brands.
"I love creating state-of-the-art products and offering them to my customers at a reasonable price, so that every woman who wants to can look her best." -Dimitri James

Belgian Prime Minister Yves Leterme has been appointed deputy secretary general of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, and will begin work before the end of the year, the OECD said on Friday.
Leterme, aged 50, will be responsible for the OECD's work on social and governance affairs.
He leaves a government caught in a long-running national crisis over deep disagreements between French and Flemish speaking forces in the country. But a compromise appears to be in sight opening the prospect of the formation of a fully operating government after 460 days of limbo.
The social and governance portfolio at the OECD covers education, skills, labour and employment, health, small and medium-sized businesses and territorial development, the OECD said.
He has been appointed for two years, renewable, following approval by the OECD council earlier on Friday.
Secretary general Angel Gurria said that Leterme's "skills and experience will be central to the role we are playing in helping governments and citizens alike rise to the challenges of these difficult times."
Leterme, who has also been budget and foreign minister in Belgium, replaces Aart de Geus who left the OECD at the end of August. There are three other deputy secretary generals, Pier Carlo Padoan, Richard Boucher and Rintaro Tamaki.
The OECD has 34 members, all advanced countries, for which it carries out research and advises on policy.

Windows 7 32 bit
Just for grins I installed and messed around with CleanMem. My memory usage looked just about the way it does anyway. Many of my task tray hotkey apps I call EmptyWorkingSet() to return unneeded memory to the system. I noticed after running it using the mini-monitor where you could manually trigger it, my copies of chrome.exe in memory went from 25-35 MB each in Task Manager to a couple of MB. But after a few seconds/minutes the usage was right back up there.
I found with chromium it's better to use --renderer-process-limit=n switch to keep the number of instances from going wild.
The long of it and short of it, didn't do any harm, didn't really do any good as my system is tuned to only park a couple hundred MB in the page file. My typical peak page file usage is about 225 MB. With CleanMem it actually went up to about 330 MB. Inconsequential. But on my system there seems no point in running it. It may help more on systems with only 1 GB ram.

Which Defragger do you think is better, because I am trying to decide between the two, but can't decide on one or the other.

I normally set the Disk Defragmenter Task Schedule to DISABLED, and leave the Windows Disk Defragmenter defragsvc set to DISABLED. Will Puran Free be able to safely and fully operate under these conditions, or should I change defragsvc to MANUAL. I occasionally create a Macrium FULL image...

Does Windows Defrag defrag system files?
Hi all. Stupid question here... A friend of mine was speaking highly about this PerfectDisk prog because "it defrags system files." I was kind of surprised because I thought (assumed) that the defrag utility built into Windows 7 already defragged system files. Is this not true? I do not...

The DJM-250 mixer with 2 sound filters
Key features
We are breaking the mould once again with the release of the DJM-250: the industry's first sub-€500 mixer to boast two sound colour filters and a range of professional features.
An absolute favourite among professional and hobby DJs alike, quality filters are usually confined to high-end mixers. But now with the Pioneer DJM-250 two-channel mixer, DJs can combine EQ effects with not one, but two filters to perform mixes that sound like they were meant to be.
The DJM-250 is loaded with 8 inputs to connect with an array of sources, including 1 MIC input for MCing at parties. The mixer mirrors the layout of its bigger brothers to deliver the professional experience. Plus the XLR balanced output guarantees the high quality sound expected from our club standard mixers, making it perfect for DJing at home, parties or in music bars.
This is the first time DJs can get their hands on a high quality mixer with two filters without having to break the bank. Add that to the DJM-250's pro features and you've got a mixer like no other on the market.

Iowa regent universities combine for most diverse enrollment in history
Combined number of racial or ethnic minority students rose 8.2 percent
Iowa's three regent universities this fall have the most diverse student populations in the state's history, according to an enrollment report presented to the Iowa Board of Regents on Wednesday.
The combined number of racial or ethnic minority students at University of Iowa, Iowa State University and University of Northern Iowa rose 8.2 percent – or by 670 students – from 8,210 in fall 2012 to 8,880 this fall, according to the report. That represents 11.6 percent of the total fall 2013 enrollment.
"This is the largest number of racial/ethnic minority students ever at the public universities," according to the report.
When looking just at undergraduate students, the increase in racial or ethnic minority students from 2012 to 2013 was even greater at 10.7 percent. Iowa residents accounted for about 57 percent of the public universities' minority students, the report indicates.
At the start of the fall semester, 851 new freshmen at the public universities were in-state racial or ethnic minorities, representing 21.5 percent of the state's public high school graduates who were minorities and 27.9 percent of the ACT test takers who were minorities.
UI officials reported that 12.9 percent of the enrolled student body this fall identified as racial or ethnic minorities – or 17.1 percent of the entering class.
U.S. multicultural enrollment at ISU reached 11.1 percent of its total enrollment this fall, a new record and an increase over last year, according to the report. ISU's total international student enrollment this fall also reached record levels at 3,797 – up 287 students over last fall.
Total U.S. multicultural and international enrollment at ISU represented 22.52 percent of the student body this fall, topping the previous record of 21.79 in fall 2012.
UNI's enrollment of minority students this fall remained steady at 8.1 percent of the total student body, according to the report.
Georgina Dodge, UI chief diversity officer and associate vice president, said she thinks the regent university enrollment figures are mirroring national population trends.
"Look at the demographics of the country – we are going to be recruiting more minority and international students," Dodge said. "And to me that's a good thing. We want to have a very educated populace."
Part of educating students, she said, involves creating a diverse environment with people of different backgrounds with different skill sets.
"I think it's benefiting everyone is some significant ways," Dodge said. "All our students are now operating in a more diverse environment, which is forcing them to focus on new and different skills. And all of those skills will be helpful to them as they get out into the world."
Dodge identified several reasons Iowa's universities might be attractive to minorities, including its reputation for being safe and without the distractions of a larger city. She predicted the state campuses will become increasingly diverse and said it's important the universities rise to the challenge."How can we best engage a more diverse student body," she said. "How can they learn from each other and how can they be social together in meaningful ways?"

Dump out the coffee cans, car ashtrays and the bottom of your purse. The lowly penny, which almost was taken out of circulation three years ago, is making a comeback as the recession puts a crimp in back-to-school sales.
Spiral notebooks, batteries, markers, crayons, pencils and even some clothing are just a few of the items going for 1 cent these days. The gimmick is gaining traction as merchants try to attract penny-pinching consumers with deals.
"You're playing into the consumer psyche, which is already delicate as it is," said Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst at NPD Group, a market research firm. "Buy one, get one free has been around so long, it doesn't even make a noise. Buy one, get one for a penny feels like a deal."
The penny bargains come amid expectations for a grim back-to-school selling season. Citigroup Global Markets predicts this will be the first year back-to-school sales will decline since at least 1995.
Back-to-school shopping typically spans July, August and early September. It ranks as the retail industry's biggest revenue period after the holiday season. And many analysts consider it a harbinger of holiday sales.
With back-to-school shopping budgets shrinking and families putting off all but the most essential purchases until after school begins, the race to grab shoppers' attention is intense.
Staples and OfficeMax have led the charge with penny promotions that change weekly. So far, OfficeMax has sold highlighters, crayons, sharpeners, paper folders and spiral notebooks. Staples has offered pencils, printer paper, lined filler paper and spiral notebooks.
The office-supply chain stores, which count back-to-school as their biggest selling season, have latched onto penny promotions as drugstores and dollar stores expand onto their turf.
CVS, for example, has giant cardboard cutouts of scissors and staplers and thumbtacks hanging above the school supplies aisle touting "back-to-school savings." Yellow cardboard bins are stuffed with an array of quirky and useful items for $1 each, from paper clips shaped like cows to packages of miniature highlighters.
"Retailers are trying to stimulate demand," said Paula Rosenblum, managing partner at Retail Systems Research, a retail consulting firm in Miami. "This is about getting people into the store. If you also end up buying ink refill for your printer, the retailer has made back the money."
The problem for retailers is shoppers have become so savvy about prices that taking a loss on one item to make it back on others is getting to be a risky strategy, Rosenblum said.
Staples was one of the first retailers to resurrect the penny for back-to-school shopping in 2006 after finding selling supplies for a dime or a quarter for a limited time sparked sales activity the year before. The promotion gained steam when the recession set in and is now a hallmark of the retailer's July and August selling period.
"This is the only time of year we do a penny," said Don LeBlanc, senior vice president of retail marketing for Staples. "Unfortunately, there are a lot of other people out there fighting for back-to-school business. Drugstores. Discount stores. We needed a way to get the word out and break through the clutter. It doesn't matter what the item is. One penny is a great deal."
OfficeMax followed suit last year and expanded its "back to school for pennies" program in 2009 to include seven viral videos on YouTube depicting a 10-year-old billionaire with his penny-pinching Scottish father trying to buy antique buttons, works of art and collectible guitars with bags of pennies.
Even teen-clothing store Wet Seal has offered consumers the chance to buy one clearance clothing item and get another for a penny. With the exception of blue jeans, there is little new in fashion this year, giving teens scant motivation to restock their closets, said NPD's Cohen.
British department store Marks & Spencer held a Penny Bazaar at hundreds of its stores in May, selling 2 million products for a penny each.
"Everybody is still pinching pennies," said Bob Thacker, senior vice president of marketing and advertising at OfficeMax, noting that while some economists are declaring the recession over, consumers aren't behaving that way.
"People are still playing it very, very safe. It's a little bit like coming outside after a tornado comes through. You're not going to fire up the grill and start having a barbecue."

* Tottenham beat Leicester 6-1 at the King Power Stadium
* Kane netted four goals and Son scored twice for the visitors
* Spurs led 2-0 at halftime after dominating possession
* Chilwell briefly reduced the arrears after the break
* Kane scored a second half hat-trick and Son added another
* Tottenham visit Hull on final matchday; Leicester at home to Bournemouth
May 18 (Reuters) - A rampant Harry Kane netted four goals and Son Heung-min scored twice as Tottenham Hotspur thrashed Leicester City 6-1 in an entertaining Premier League clash on Thursday.
Already certain of finishing second behind champions Chelsea, Spurs played as if the title race depended on the outcome of their visit to Leicester, who suffered a first home defeat after five straight wins.
The lively Son set up Kane for a 25th-minute opener and made it 2-0 with a first-time shot on the turn in the 36th minute as the visitors dominated the opening half with some crisp passing.
Ben Chilwell pulled one back for Leicester after the break but Kane struck three times to go top of the Premier League's scoring chart with 26 goals, with Son scoring his second after some dazzling footwork created space for a neat low shot from 25 metres.

Detailed Information:A story from Boughs of Evergreen: A Holiday Anthology
All Mitch wants for Christmas is a quiet holiday free from grief. Patching up the face of the target of a mugging in the back alley of his bar seems to throw that wish right out into the cold Chicago night. But the tatted, pierced, and skinny-jean wearing Keller Graham is fearless and proves to be more than a pair of icy blue eyes lined in black. Keller may be a thief, but Mitch never expected him to steal his lonely heart.

Wyoming was the 46th state to join the USA's lottery family, with tickets for the Mega Millions and Powerball lottery games now available to be purchased. Residents of "The Cowboy State" no longer need venture out to neighbouring states, like Colorado, to buy their tickets for the big multi-state lotteries.
WyoLotto was launched on August 24th 2014, and the first ticket was sold to a lucky prize winner in Sheridan. As well as having the honour of buying the first lottery ticket in Wyoming, 67 year old grandmother, Mary Ogg also won herself a Jeep Wrangler. Eight other regional winners also profited from the Launch Day Giveaway, pocketing $1,000 and a years worth of Mega Millions tickets.
WyoLotto is headed by YoLo the yellow Jackpotalope (a fictitious animal that is half hare, half antelope). YoLo is the lucky symbol of the Wyoming Lottery and can be seen reaching for a star in the lottery's logo as a way of representing a hopeful lottery player reaching for a winning ticket. Also featured in the logo is the lottery's positive and hopeful slogan "Just Maybe".
As of writing, almost 400 retailers in Wyoming have registered to sell Powerball and Mega Millions tickets, making it easy for residents to buy tickets from anywhere in the state. WyoLotto have also made it easy to keep up-to-date with the latest lottery news by regularly updating their six social media pages; which include, Facebook, Twitter, Google +, Instagram and Pinterest.
On March 15th 2015, WyoLotto gave Wyomingites the chance to win a horse. Why, you ask? To celebrate the launch of Cowboy Draw, Wyoming's first in-state lottery game, of course. The twice-weekly game costs $5 to play and players are required to match 5 numbers to win jackpots starting at $250,000.

text: I have been waiting since last autumn to buy a brand new RV . I have been in constant contact with two dealers who both expected recent new RVs to arrive from the US. Both have arrived in the last couple of weeks . One has made me a good trade in offer on my RV against a new model , but the other dealer would not sell me the one which I preferred that is now being openly advertised on his website for £95k , which by the way was priced to me at £102k. ?? I naturally will not now go back to the latter dealer but do not understand why my money was basically rejected in these difficult times and the price was £7k different. oh:oh:

A Guide to Buying the Right Lawn Mower
Buying a lawn mower is a very important decision, these devices can cost a lot of money and you would never really want to just end up wasting your cash on something that is not going to get you the kind of results that you want. There is also the fact that the market offers way too many choices for you to select from these days which makes it a little overwhelming for you to take a pick. It would be so much easier for you to take a pick though when you have an idea of the many factors that you have to consider before you will decide to pick one.
Get Push Mowers for Smaller Lawns
If you happen to have a small patch of grass covering your lawn at an area of below 500 square feet, then you can easily get them mowed through the use of a reel mower. Of course, this may also mean that you have to carry out some fast movements to make it possible for you to get the blades to activate properly. Still, there will be no engine for you to take care of. This means that the unit is going to be eco-friendly and will require very little maintenance too.
Storing the mower should be easy too. Due to its small size, storing to and vertically stacking it up against the wall is not a problem. You can get these units at the standard of 16 inches in width, but users can go up to 20 inches or even go down to those units with 14 inches in width. They are usually going to be priced between $80 to $110.
Walk-Behind Mowers are Perfect for Users Who Like a Lot of Options
Mowers that are walk-behind types have since been considered a favorite in many homeowners for years now. Through proper care, these types of mowers are expected to run for many years to come. They are also very effective when it comes to cutting the mile of many huge lawns. They are usually available in 20 inches up to 22 inches in size. It would be helpful to actually get the yard gate measured beforehand though or for the door on the shed before you will decide o buy one, this is to ensure that you really do have the right amount of space present in these areas to allow you to get the mower maneuvered accordingly.
Decide whether You Prefer Electric or Gas Mowers
You will find that gas mowers tend to have a longer run time when compared to those mowers that are powered through electricity. The real downside of these kinds of grass cutting devices though is the fact that they can be quite messy. This is why they are expected to require more maintenance when compared to those mowers that are run by electricity. A quality gas mower can be purchased at prices ranging from $100-$400 and up.
If you would opt for electric mowers, you need to know that they are going to be corded or they could be cordless too. They tend to be cleaner when operated when compared to gas powered ones. But it is important for people using them to have two batteries since there is a very good chance that you will end up running out of power when cutting your lawn if you are only ever going to rely on a single one. Also, the fact that there are corded models mean that you may have to deal with limited areas to mow due to the limitations to distance that will be set by the cord attached to the unit.
Huge Lawns are Perfect for Riding Mowers
If you happen to have a wide and huge yard, then it would be the perfect opportunity for you to get one of those mowers where you do not need to push them, but you can ride on them. These are mowers that can do so much more when compared to the usual push mowers or the walk-behind types. Many times, using these kinds of mowers to take on the grass cutting of larger. Bigger yards would take ages. Not with the riding mowers though, you can certainly expect the time needed to get the job done or be reduced significantly with them around.
They are the perfect choice if you are hoping to upgrade your mowers to ensure that your time to get the lawn trimmed will be slashed quite considerably. These types of equipment have a motor that is rear mounted. It is important to note though that in most cases, they will only provide the basics as far as comfort goes. So, do consider this factor when you have to make your choice later on. But there should be more modern version of these units that the market has come out with these days, exploring your choices ensures that you will be able to successfully select something that should be worth its cost.

Duncan injured but returns in win
Tim Duncan was spread out on the floor, cringing, clutching his left knee. All the San Antonio Spurs came off the bench and surrounded him, fearing the worst.
"Bad, bad memories," point guard Tony Parker thought to himself. "I thought something was seriously wrong with his knee."
Turns out, all is still well with the Spurs.
Duncan returned unhampered in the second half to finish with 16 points and seven rebounds, and San Antonio overcame the brief injury scare to beat the Golden State Warriors 113-102 on Monday night.
Manu Ginobili had 20 points and seven assists, Parker added 18 points and 11 assists and the NBA-best Spurs (38-7) cruised to an otherwise stress-free victory that clinched the Western Conference's best record through games of Feb. 6. That means Spurs coach Gregg Popovich will coach the West squad in the All-Star game Feb. 20 at Los Angeles.
Of greater importance to the Spurs was that they left town with their team intact.
"Just fell wrong, got my knee caught underneath me," said Duncan, who had his knee wrapped in the locker room. "Played the second half, so it feels OK."
David Lee had a season-high 31 points to go with 12 rebounds, and Monta Ellis scored 25 for a Warriors team hoping to get into the playoff picture during a huge homestand. Instead, the franchise that knows all about postseason play dominated as it has all season.
"They're a very frustrating team to play," Lee said. "I don't go out there feeling like they're a better team than us. When you play the Lakers you look at their size and say it's going to be a tough game. I feel like we match up well with the Spurs. I feel like they're a beatable team, especially in this building. And just the way they execute and the way they take advantage of any little mistake you make, it's like a boring way to play but it's so effective.
"There's a reason why their record is what it is."
The Spurs have played with the same starting five in every game this season, but it looked for a moment that their streak was in jeopardy. Duncan was setting a pick on Acie Law in the second quarter when he turned to roll to the basket and his left knee appeared to buckle slightly.
Duncan fell to the floor, cringing for about a minute while he held his knee. The entire Spurs bench, including Popovich, came onto the floor to check on the 12-time All-Star. Duncan had to be helped up but eventually walked to the locker room under his own power.
"I think he's going to be all right," Popovich said. "He just kind of hyperextended it, but he said it felt good, worked it out and said it was good. He's his own best judge."
Sure seemed that way.
Duncan, diagnosed with a hyperflexed left knee, returned to start the third quarter and San Antonio found its spark. Duncan, Ginobili and Parker – the core of all those championship teams – helped the Spurs build an 83-70 lead.
Duncan played his usual minutes and showed no signs of being hobbled.
The Spurs, who had won eight in a row until losing to the Hornets in their previous game, hope this is the start of another big streak. San Antonio also has had winning streaks of 12 and 10 games this season.
"Their record is because of what they have," Warriors coach Keith Smart said. "Tim goes out for a brief moment and they don't miss a beat because they know how to move to the next play right away. We have to be playing at a great high level for us to have a shot here."
Notes: Spurs F Matt Bonner missed his fifth consecutive game with a bone bruise on his right knee. Popovich said there is no structural damage but the team is somewhat concerned that it hasn't improved. "It's not getting better a lick," Popovich said. … The Warriors began an eight-game homestand, the longest since they played eight in a row in the 1964-65 season. Seven of those games were played in San Francisco, and the other in San Jose.

My husband, our two daughters and I are planning to visit Tokyo next Spring. Here's the problem: my daughters are allergic to peanuts, tree nuts, and legumes (legumes include soy protein such as edamame, tofu and miso and many types of beans, peas, and lentils). They carry Epi-pens and wear Medic Alert bracelets. They are ages 14 and 12.
As you can imagine, their food allergies make life very complicated. We are very careful about what they eat and where they eat. We are always reading food labels.
We are familiar with most common Japanese foods and frequently eat in many local Japanese restaurants near our home in the San Francisco area. But I am very worried about visiting Japan because I'm not sure whether the food will be made differently than it is here. I'm not sure which foods may have hidden soy protein or nuts. Someone recently told me to avoid curry houses in Tokyo, because almost all the curry recipes use peanuts -- I did not know that. I was grateful for that information. That is the type of information I need to know.
My daughters CAN eat soy sauce and teriyaki sauce, because the protein is removed in the fermenting process. So, they do eat many Asian foods here in California. They love sushi. In Tokyo, they would like to try Ramen noodles (for example), but I'm not sure if they are made in a broth containing miso or soy protein. I'm worried about meats that may be marinated in miso, or noodles made of beans they are allergic to.
I'm also not sure how the Japanese food served in Japan would be different from similar foods served here in the USA. From my travel experience, foods are sometimes made with different ingredients in the indigenous country because the available ingredients are different.
Obviously we will be dealing with a language barrier in Japan. I plan to have a card made which translates the allergy information into Japanese (to show at restaurants), but I am still worried that people may not truly understand what it means. I am also worried that waitresses may smile and nod and not really talk to the chef -- not truly understanding the importance of the situation -- that this is not a preference or an annoyance -- this is LIFE AND DEATH for my children!
I would hate to take them to Japan and have them eating at American chain restuarants like McDonalds. Can you help me identify potentially "safe" types of restaurants and foods for them in Tokyo? Or what types of foods or restaurants to stay away from?
I REALLY appreciate any assistance you can offer. In addition to Tokyo, we hope to visit Kyoto for a day or two.
Thank you so very much!
-a Mom in California

It's not always the big picture that makes us the happiest. The little things throughout the day are the ones that really make us stop in our tracks and reflect on just how lucky we are. This is especially true for moms– whether you're listening to your four year old tell a joke or sharing a quick snack together before he or she runs outside to play with friends, the little moments in life are what make us smile the most. You don't have to move mountains to make life a little bit better. That's why we've teamed up with Nutella in support of their message, Spread The Happy.
Happiness is best when it's shared with others, so why not spread the love? We love to leave little bits of happy for our friends and family to find, especially in the home. As the saying goes, you should treat others the way you want to be treated. So if you start putting positive energy into your own home, it will reflect back to you and make it your ultimate happy place! For example, try writing cheery notes and sticking them in surprise places where you know your hubby or kids will look (in the fridge, on the bathroom mirror…).
As we challenge you to "pay it forward" and spread the happy throughout your own home, we're sharing one of our favorite options: bringing your kiddos some delicious breakfast in bed! That's where Nutella really shines. Simply spreading the topping on toast is enough to literally "spread" the love! Take a few minutes to add a touch of Nutella to your morning and put smiles on your kids' faces just as much as your own. Your kids will fall in love with the sweet, chocolaty hazelnut flavor, and you can feel good about buying it!
Nutella's unique taste is gluten-free, with no artificial colors or preservatives, and you can add your own tasty spins on it. Try topping the spread with fruit slices, or even spreading the Nutella on the toast in little heart shapes! As you take the time to lounge in bed and enjoy some morning snacks instead of running off in separate directions, you'll savor those "mom moments" of pure, sweet happiness. And the unexpected morning surprise will lead to a day filled with more smiles, more happy, and more inspiration to pay it forward!
To get recipes, share pictures of how you enjoy Nutella, and participate in spreading the happy, check out Nutella's Tumblr page.
Nutella® hazelnut spread is a happy start to every day! Pick up a jar of Nutella in the spreads aisle and enjoy it with whole wheat toast, waffles, pancakes, strawberries, bananas and many other foods. Nutella. Spread the Happy™.

That's right Chris. Our LTRANS is updated after every sale. When in question contact your AM. One benefit of LinkShare is that you can pull the latest transaction file and see individual affiliate orders and sales. I compile a daily transaction report and can see when an affiliate makes a jump in sales. When I congratulate tehm, they are often shocked as they didn't know they made the sale.
September 29th, 2005, 07:53 AM #8
Well guess what! The sales were there - with valid products through valid merchants on my site, and now they're all gone again. Like $700 in sales just disappeared as quickly as it appeared. What's going on? And where are all my sales?? I'm not sure how this could be 'an error' as these were valid individual products sold through my site.... Someone please enlighten me.~Lisa - Brilliant Mastermind, or Nut? You decide!

My sales commission had $3,200 yesterday as it said I had sold almost 300 items for Petsmart. Now today it is only $75. Items cancelled is only 133 out of the 300 so I'm not sure why it is down to $75. Did this happen to anyone else? I pull my affiliate account up almost daily & you have no idea how thrilled I was to see such high sales for September. I normally get a couple hundred dollars a month or less. I was in tears of happiness when I saw $3,200 now I just have that sickening feeling!

Located at the edge of the main strip, the Holiday Inn Cancun is an OK resort. This is definitely a better option for those looking for a short stay in Cancun. The majority of staff here are friendly and pleasant. This hotel has an all-inclusive option, and there are some do's and don'ts for certain guests, making it sometimes a bit of a hassle. The all-inclusive options when it comes to food is adeqaute. This resort is a great option for families or those looking for a quieter stay in Cancun. However, because of its location, its options, and price, there are a lot more suitable resorts to choose from that are of better value.

Traveler Reviews
Average quality hotel
The hotel is looking quite new and is placed at the very beginning of the long road/stretch of sand of the zona hotelera of Cancun.Rooms are clean, all white, most of them with sea view. Look of the furniture is not for sure luxury but quite consistent. There is a small pool overlooking the beach. The beach is actually a very narrow (less than 10 mtrs) stretch of sand in front of the hotel; nearby hotels and houses have not much more, maybe less. Bar at the pool is an approximate idea of a bar, with fast and uncaring service, high prices for low quality drinks. Service at the check in is friendly enough although not really caring much. At the end a cheap option, sometimes sold all inclusive. I would say good for a couple of nights if you are in transit, not more than this.
Overall satisfied
I made my first stay here in Cancun. Booked with breakfast included and the staff was friendly. The room was spacious and clean and air conditioning worked well. But there was no refrigerator. It was nice to be able to use the computer for free in the lobby. It was small but there was a swimming pool and the children liked it. When I moved, I got a cheap taxi from the lobby. Overall satisfied.
Not so expensive hotel...don't eat at the restaurant!
The type of hotels you find when looking for a cheap option. Price was ok, service not so much. Still, if you plan to go to Cancun and spend most of the time on the different tours, this is a very good option. Again, please don't eat at the restaurant...a waste of money and really bad food.
I was at this hotel for 5 nights, my room was okay. I had all exclusive which it was disappointed because only included chz nachos, chz burger , hot dog and club sandwiches. So not worth it. The employees at the front desk were rude, not professional at all. My last night there the IC didn't work so I called the front desk and someone showed up like an hr later without making any difference because he couldn't fix it, we couldn't sleep all night because it was too hot. I only stayed there because I'm a IGH member which they never knew that I was until the end because I ask about my points.
Not a bad deal!!!
We arrived in Cancun at 6am. We got to the hotel at 9am. Mind you, check in wasn't until maybe 2. Definitely 3! But, the lady at the reception was super nice! We got a room on the fourth floor with two double beds (instead of the one king-sized - a better deal if you ask me). Hubby and I were satisfied! The food was delicious! Cochinita pibil, huevos rancheros, fried plantains! OMG! I gained weight here! Seasoned very nicely. If you're a vegetarian, well... There were some choices, but mostly fruit and some salad. The omelet station was great! Made to order and nicely, too! The entire staff were very nice and helpful. Lost a towel key that I handed to hubby, by the toallero, mind you, and the wait staff handed it back to us during lunch! It was so nice! Didn't use the pool. The main one was pretty full. But they had another on the other building, by tower one. The palapas were great! Fell asleep under one first day out! The beach is small, but great for wading. You want ocean, go on a catamaran! Their dock is just a short walk away! It's right by the bus stop. It's near a bank.I asked our cleaning lady for an extra face towel, she gave me two - everyday! She even folded them into fans, into a swan... it was a surprise every day! We tipped her nicely. A buck, or three goes a long way here!The Italian restaurant was closed, but they had dinner theatre one night. There is also the seaside grill you must make reservations for. But their buffet was very good! Although I think they could upgrade their sheets, everything else was great!I went in knowing that we were going to Mexico. It's not the US. So the facilities were nice and clean. I also dredged up my highschool Spanglish and they dredged up their meager English. Between smiles and pantomimes, we got our messages across.Ah, one think I couldn't get over with (because I'm a coffee addict), their coffee was weak. If you want cafe robusto, go buy your own!The WiFi is weak in the room we stayed in. #2416. We received the best signal in the buffet dining room

Eduardo undergoes operation
Arsenal's Eduardo has undergone minor surgery in a bid to finally cure his ankle injury.
Last Updated: 20/05/09 6:00pm
Arsenal striker Eduardo has undergone minor surgery in a bid to finally cure his troublesome ankle injury.
The Croatia international dislocated his left ankle more than a year ago following a collision with Birmingham defender Martin Taylor at St Andrews.
Eduardo has since returned to action but has yet to recapture full fitness and has now had an operation.
A statement from the Gunners read: "Eduardo underwent simple revision surgery on his left ankle.
"The operation went well and Eduardo will follow a dedicated rehabilitation programme throughout June.
"He is expected to return to full training in pre-season with the rest of the squad."

These 808's Mean MORE than Business! I've always been on a hunt for good 808's, and finally, when I heard SoundsinHD was putting together an 808 kit, I got really excited. When going through the kit, it was exactly as expected; supreme quality, meticulously organized, and full of absolute variety, with that SoundsinHD sound-design touch!

Unanswered: Firebird 2.1 Old Transactions
Hello all,
I am currently work on a complex system which uses Firebird 2.1 64bit super server. I have an old transaction, that has been active for more than 8 hours, and was wondering if there is anyway to find where this transaction was originated. Our system has 7 separate programs which access the database, so it's difficult to guess where this long transaction is coming from. I traced the transaction from the mon$transactions table and found the pid in the mon$attachments table, but the pid points to the Firebird Server itself and doesn't give me the remote pid (it's null in the table). So my question is if there is any way to find the process which originated this transaction, and if not how can I commit it or kill it?
thank you for any help you can give

It started with Shirley Caesar's epic Gospel song "Hold My Mule". Then Atlanta remixer DJ Suede got ahold of it and turned it into an ode to Holiday eating.
Now that remix is climbing up the Billboard charts, and now the 78-year-old Caesar stands to make around a quarter-of-a-million dollars in new royalties.
Shirley says she's thrilled about her song's resurgence – but as an ordained minister, isn't all that crazy about some of the dance moves some people are doing to it. Well, it is impossible to sit still through it.

Congolese president Joseph Kabila says replacing Karel De Gucht as foreign minister is a desirable option.18 July 2008
BELGIUM - In an interview with the French-speaking public broadcaster RTBF, Congolese president Joseph Kabila has said that replacing Karel De Gucht as Foreign Minister would not be a bad idea.
Joseph Kabila was speaking in Paris, where he met the CEO's of major companies like Suez and Bouygues Télécom.
Belgium is afraid Kabila prefers French investors over Belgian investors as he is looking for ways to further develop his country. No details were released on possible deals.
Relations between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Belgium have been strained recently after some critical remarks made by Foreign Minister Karel De Gucht.
Kabila told the RTBF that Congo and Belgium still maintain contacts, but that he also eagerly awaits the formation of a new Belgian government.
Asked whether he would want Belgium to have a new Foreign Minister, he answered: "That would be desirable."
De Gucht's spokesman does not want to react to Mr Kabila's quote.

Human clones could be on their way. In a previous Odyssey webpost – All Brothers Under The Skin – I talked about the downside of cloning, which seems to be the inevitable way forward for genetic engineering of humans if they are to survive on other planets. There could be serious consequences for the future of the human race.
The idea of cloning has occasionally featured in science fiction, usually when there's a need to explain the rapid production of large numbers of genetically identical people for some reason. Famously, a clone army is developed from the genetic template of the bounty hunter Jango Fett to fight for the Republic in the second Star Wars film Attack of the Clones, though using someone rather unpleasant as the basis for cloning might solve one's immediate crisis but store up additional problems for the future. Naomi Mitchison's 1975 novel Solution Three envisages a future where the whole population develops as the clones of a new Adam and Eve.
However, in 1965, Theodore Thomas and Kate Wilhelm wrote a science fiction novel based on the traditional dictionary definition of a clone – an aggregate of organisms descended by asexual reproduction from a single individual. In The Clone, which was nominated for a Nebula Award, there is just one amorphous creature which grows consistently and seeks voraciously to absorb other organisms, including humans, into its structure. Fortunately, our heroes find a way to stop it, but the clone originally developed from an accidental combination of the complex chemicals and materials used in modern industrial society.
The idea of the danger from an utterly alien being which seeks to assimilate us, possibly without limit, is a frequent threat in science fiction. We see it back in the 1953 BBC television series The Quatermass Experiment, where rapid transformation of humans into a plant-like creature could end all life on Earth. The same fear undoubtedly underlies the concept of the Borg in Star Trek.
The home-grown variety of this threat is another consistent theme in science fiction – as we continue to create, and experiment with, new biological techniques, there's an inevitable risk that we might be stepping just a bit too far into the unknown. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein from 1818 may well be the precursor to the regular storyline of the created thing destroying its creator.
And deliberate changes to life-forms, including humans, thereby altering the basis on which they successfully evolved over the aeons, will always carry a risk. The theme underlies Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde from 1886 – the well-known disastrous attempt to change the human psyche through science – and HG Wells' 1896 novel The Island of Dr Moreau, where human-like beings are created from animals.
The key message is that the result might not always be what one expects, and precautions based on experiences so far might not be adequate to prevent it. Our creations may turn out to be not as user-friendly as we intended. In Spencer Lane's 1938 story Niedbalski's Mutant, a scientist speeds up plant evolution through causing a rapid succession of generations in a short period, with the unexpected result of achieving plant sentience. And then the plant starts to communicate with him.
There's an underlying feeling that the problem with any experimentation on the living world may be the potential unleashing of something which cannot be restrained despite all the preparations that seemed like a good idea at the time. In changing the structure of any organism, including, one day, humans, perhaps you can never be entirely sure where the process will stop.

Album review for This Coming Gladness by Josephine Foster released through Bo'Weavil Recordings. Every music paper, zine or blog is talking about folk music at the moment. Devendra Banhart and Joanna Newsom have become icons while purveyors of quite nice but largely insipid songs like Alela Diane (40 000 copies sold in France alone!), Bat for Lashes or Fleet Foxes are surprisingly selling lots of records. In the meantime, folk minstrel Josephine Foster is releasing her fourth (not counting collaborations like Born Heller or confidential CD-Rs) album without any attention whatsoever.

Pacific public health workforce development
Public health, and its capability to address the determinants of health, is key to improving the health status of Pacific peoples, who suffer from higher incidence rates of chronic diseases such as ischaemic heart disease, stroke, diabetes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease than other groups.
Strengthening the Pacific public health workforce and the capability of the non-Pacific workforce to improve Pacific health and reduce inequalities requires both a short-term and long-term focus.
To improve the health of Pacific peoples in New Zealand and reduce health disparities, it is essential to build the capacity and capability of the Pacific public health workforce and increase the responsiveness of the non-Pacific public health workforce to Pacific public health need.
The Ministry of Health, particularly the Pacific Health Branch has been responsible for co-ordinating, monitoring and reporting on the progress of work of other Ministry of Health groups and sector agencies towards the goals outlined in the Pacific Health and Disability Workforce Development Plan, Ministry of Health, 2004. The Pacific public health work outlined in Te Uru Kahikatea: The Public Health Workforce Development Plan will directly contribute to the achievement of the Pacific Health and Disability Workforce Development Plan goals.

Roy Blunt on Crime
Republican Jr Senator; previously Representative (MO-7)
Proponent's argument to vote Yes:Rep. JOHN CONYERS (D, MI-14):This bill expands existing Federal hate crimes law to groups who are well-known targets for bias-based violence--they are sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, and disability. These crimes of violence are directed not just at those who are directly attacked; they are targeting the entire group with the threat of violence.
Opponent's argument to vote No:Rep. LAMAR SMITH (R, TX-21): Every year thousands of violent crimes are committed out of hate, but just as many violent crimes, if not more, are motivated by something other than hate--greed, jealousy, desperation or revenge, just to name a few. An individual's motivation for committing a violent crime is usually complex and often speculative. Every violent crime is deplorable, regardless of its motivation. That's why all violent crimes should be vigorously prosecuted. Unfortunately, this bill undermines one of the most basic principles of our criminal justice system--equal justice for all. Under this bill, justice will no longer be equal. Justice will now depend on the race, gender, sexual orientation, disability or other protected status of the victim. It will allow different penalties to be imposed for the same crime. This is the real injustice.
Proponents support voting YES because:
Rep. CONYERS: Some 650,000 men and women are leaving the Federal and State prisons each year. While the vast majority of the prisoners are committed to abiding by the law and becoming productive members of society, they often encounter the same pressures & temptations that they faced before prison. More than two-thirds of them are arrested for new crimes within 3 years of their release. This exacts a terrible cost in financial terms as well as in human terms. The Second Chance Act will help provide these men and women with the training, counseling and other support needed to help them obtain & hold steady jobs; to kick their drug and alcohol habits; rebuild their families; and deal with the many other challenges that they face in their efforts to successfully rejoin society.
Opponents recommend voting NO because:
Rep. GOHMERT: The programs that are sought to be renewed are ones we don't have information on how successful they were. I can tell you from my days as a judge, there was some anecdotal evidence that it looked like faith-based programs did a better job of dramatically reducing recidivism. In addition:
CURE (Citizens United for Rehabilitation of Errants) is a membership organization of families of prisoners, prisoners, former prisoners and other concerned citizens. CURE's two goals are

Ajab Gaanyer Ajab Katha Trailer (1999)
01 June 1999 122 mins
Set in the imaginary village of Ajab Gaon (Strange Village) , the story revolves around several characters. Raja Birchandra, is a king without a kingdom who whiles away his time singing songs by Tagore. Dukkharam is a school teacher who lives in a house haunted by an ancestor; Madhab Ghosal is a devotee of Lord Shiva who wants to analyse everything; Madhab Dutta claims to be a great shikari; Tia, Dutta's innocent niece, has resolved to marry the school teacher. Underlying the strands of all of these stories, is the legend of a treasure hidden in the Raja's palace. Birchandra is least concerned about this but there are certain other characters who are out to steal it.

You don't need to be a Viking from the days of yore to enjoy a tall glass of mead anymore. The ancient, honey-based beverage is making a comeback at Leaky Roof Meadery. Mead comes from the fermentation of honey, water, and yeast, with a mix of fruit or spices often added. Mead can be dry or sweet, high or low in alcohol content, and flat or carbonated. Leaky Roof's flagship mead, the KCC&S Cyser, is made from honey and apple cider and is low-strength, slightly carbonated, and semi-sweet. It's also named after the Kansas City, Clinton, and Springfield Railroad. In fact, the whole company is.
With a strong background in brewing beer, Todd Rock founded the company in 2013 with the idea of striking out on his own and trying something new. When, he came to naming the meadery, he chose the nickname for the historic KCC&S Railroad, or the Leaky Roof Railroad. Although Buffalo has never been on the railroad line, or any railroad line for that matter, Todd fell in love with the lore of the railroad and the name.
The meadery offers samples, pints, growlers, and kegs of seven varieties of mead, plus rotating specials on tap at the taproom. You can find a select variety of cans at grocery stores across the state.
