heel warm onthaal, goede service, lekker eten en perfecte lounge sfeer. Life as it should be :-)
We always come to this restaurant just to order two main dishes, one for each, and maybe when more thing to share, and never had any issues. Even on Valentine's day, when almost all the restaurants of this class had fixed menus, The Dominican had a la carte, just what I was searching for. However, yesterday when we went to have the new year's eve dinner, we got surprised to have a fixed menu which is rather bigger than what a person like me would eat in one go. But there was no other choice except that. This is apart from having an expensive price which is not mentioned beforehand (95 EUR per person), and not having any alternative. When booking a table, the only thing that shows is the everyday menu which we always order from and not mentioned anywhere that new year's eve is a special case. Even when receiving an e-mail for our appointment reminder, now menu was attached. Good that we were only 2 people, but it is possible that others invited several guests thinking that it is a regular meal (if they are used to the restaurant like we do), and then get surprised that they need to pay such amount for each guest. It is also possible that the inviting person didn't expect such a bill, and didn't have enough money to cover, which would be a very embarrassing situation.
Cadre magnifique et menu très qualité/prix Le vin des pouilles prafait
Great atmosphere and amazing rib eye. Service was amazing and the prices were reasonable. We will go again. Loved the online booking service.
nice and cosy atmosphere. Ideal to have some informal talk with the colleagues.
Excellente cuisine et ambiance!
Both the service and the food were excellent. Nothing was rushed and the staff were friendly and helpful. It was a really enjoyable lunch with friends in a nice atmosphere.

Today's American Minute over at WND honors an Englishman, whose works, including Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, and The Chronicles of Narnia are considered seminal volumes in not only Christian, but all English, literature. Not bad for a former agnostic. One of Lewis's contemporaries was another famous English author, who was also a professor at Oxford, and wrote what is considered the standard for all fantasy fiction: J.R.R. Tolkien.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T for LSU
What a difference a week, and losses by perennial "contenders," makes.
As Miami fell to Tennessee, Virginia Tech lost to Pittsburgh, and unranked Clemson knocked off Florida State in a stunning upset, upward goes the stock of the Fighting Tigers in the BCS rankings.
Both the ESPN/USA Today Coaches' Poll and the AP poll have LSU ranked at #3 this week. (The Tigers did not play this weekend.) The BCS ranking system has the Tigers at #4, behind Ohio State, flip-flopping positions with the Buckeyes from the other major polls. I can live with that. The Big 10 is a powerhouse conference, and Ohio State is the defending national champion, not a pretender like the Hurricanes or Seminoles.
Now the Tigers have a tough, SEC-only schedule for the rest of the season. This Saturday will be the Crimson Tide, in Alabama, on national television, courtesy of ESPN. Alabama has been pretty weak this season, but you can never discount a SEC opponent. I confess to being a bit worried; the last time the Tigers came off a bye week, they suffered their only loss of the season to Florida, the difference between #4 in the BCS and #2.
Should LSU prevail, the game of their season to date would be the following week, at Ole Miss. After this past weekend, the Rebels are undefeated in the SEC, 6-0, and currently sit atop the SEC West. Looking at the Ole Miss schedule, the only thing I see stopping them from going to the SEC Championship is LSU. Not that all three remaining games aren't must-wins for the Tigers, but this will be the game, should LSU ride in to Oxford at 9-1. (Something that could work to the Tigers' favor: while LSU plays Alabama this coming weekend, Ole Miss is off.)
And should LSU enter their last regular season game at 10-1, the Razorbacks of Arkansas are always looking to spoil the Tigers' chances in the postseason. As far as the SEC championship is concerned, the Tigers control their own destiny; win all three remaining games, and they're headed to Atlanta on December 6th. Win the SEC championship, and there is the slim chance they could actually play for the national title.
Unfortunately, I don't see that happening; like I said, it's a slim chance. Oklahoma is going to finish the season undefeated, with the Big 12 championship. USC has Arizona (2-8) and UCLA (6-4) left in its season; the Trojans will roll over the Wildcats, leaving the Bruins as the only potential spoiler. It could happen, but again, the chances are slim. Ohio State does have its work cut out for it, however. The Buckeyes, like LSU, have a tough schedule to finish on, first taking on Purdue, then arch-rival Michigan. Should Ohio State cap off their season with wins in these two games, I believe you'll see them in New Orleans defending their title against Oklahoma, no matter what USC does. I'm sorry, BCS, but you can't compare the Pac-10 to the Big 10 when it comes to schedule strength.
So, here's hoping that the Bruins down the Trojans, and I'll be rooting for the Boilermakers and the Wolverines. Should LSU wrap up all three of its remaining games, and any of the above happens, they would end the season as the only one-loss team. (The TCU Horned Frogs notwithstanding; I like TCU–they're a hometown favorite–but they're not in the same league.)
Which means the Tigers would head to New Orleans to be promptly crushed by the Sooners. Hey, I love my Tigers, but I'm a realist. Unless there's a football miracle out there that none of us can see, Bob Stoops will win his third national championship this season, no matter who Oklahoma faces in the Big Easy.

Something Wicked Cool on MacDesktops
Earlier this year, yours truly used an Apple PR hi-res product photo of the third-generation iPods to create a desktop picture. That picture was subsequently submitted to MacDesktops.com, and has finally been posted.
Due to the vagaries of life, I missed the email notification sent to me a couple of weeks ago that it was posted until checking through earlier this evening. It can be found on the iPod page, and is "Something Wicked Cool." Enjoy, and please leave feedback on the desktop picture.
Ranked 4th, but no respect from the BCS
Both the ESPN/USA Today Coaches' Poll, and the AP sportswriters' poll have LSU at number 4, yet because of the "computer averages" used in their determination, the BCS still has them at number 7.
At least the Tigers have finally vaulted past Georgia, something they should have done after the Bulldogs barely scraped by a second-tier team like UAB. LSU, by contrast, had no trouble with their second-tier-team gimme game of the year. Both Georgia and LSU have had their troubles with those pesky Gators, though, haven't they?
I dare anyone to show me how Virginia Tech, Florida State, and Miami have tougher schedules than LSU. (This is one of the things the BCS computers use to determine rankings.) The toughest teams these three face each year is each other! Miami owns the Big East, and VT and FSU own the ACC. Next year, all three can happily beat up on everyone else and one another in the ACC. Again, by contrast, SEC teams have to beat up on one another week after week, with the occasional gimme game. For Miami, practically every game, week after week, is a gimme game, and I was happy to watch VT stuff them in to the ground.
Granted, LSU has traditionally had a problem winning the "big one," or blowing their chances at getting to the "big one." With a #4 ranking, and the rest of their games all televised (not always a variable that plays to the Tigers' favor), the strength and resolve of Nick Saban's team will be tested like never before since he assumed the head coach's mantle.

Little Caesars 'Saved The Day' For Family Feeding Rockford Homeless
A medical emergency at Miss Carly's earlier this week caused a delay in their normal food prep.
Due to the unforeseen circumstances, the food that was normally prepared at Miss Carly's, 1125 5th Avenue, to feed homeless Rockford residents on Monday had to be put on hold.
In a rush, a call was put it to Little Caesars "to bulk up our meal" according to Miss Carly's Facebook.
This is where Little Caesars came in like real bros.
You canceled the credit card transaction when you found out who it was for...Not only did it help our humble budget, but it meant a lot to the people we serve to know you care...It's important to also remember that these small acts of kindness can have a ripple effect of positive change.
Miss Carly's mission is to empower those in need, one meal at a time. Besides three meals a week, Miss Carly's also offers clothing and hygiene items along with NARCAN and NARCAN training.

Welcome to a collection of random pages about tabletop roleplaying and wargames, with a bit of science fiction thrown in for good measure. It contains campaign notes and chronicles for various games I've run and played it, design notes for game systems, and designs for armies and characters. Since some of the material dates back over 20 years, the style may be inconsistent.
Though there is material here for both Dungeons and Dragons and Pathfinder, it also includes Ars Magica, Traveller, Star Wars, Legend of the Five Rings, Pendragon, as well as various home brewed game systems.
Frequent updates on the games I'm currently playing can be found on my blog.
Campaigns Roleplaying Wargaming
Most of the content on here is entirely original. Some of it is based on material published by other people - e.g., game content for published RPGs or Wargames.
I've had some free time recently, some of which I'm been putting into watching YouTube videos on how to use Blender. It's a very complete 3D modelling package, but also quite complicated to learn how to use.
However, I've started to figure out the basics, and in the process have started working on some 3D models of various spacecraft designs for my various SciFi RPG initiatives. I'm very much at beginner level at the moment though, so anything I produce is very basic. I'm making everything I do available under open source licenses, and available on GitLab.
I've also tried some crude scenes as well, though drawing natural stuff is a lot harder than engineered objects. Hopefully things will improve over the coming year, and I may try using it for fantasy related things as well (such as buildings and ruins).
The main content being worked on at the moment is the Spacecraft Recognition Guide, where I'm putting together a collection of spaceship designs for my YAGS SciFi rules. Starting at the plausible near future, and then working forward in time with an ever increasing level of technology.
I'm making heavy use of Blender to model what the starships look like, and coming up with a starship design system that is reasonably detailed, but hopefully simplified enough that it's usable.
There are more details over on my blog.
I've started putting down thoughts for a new fantasy campaign, currently titled The Sinking City. There is a full blog article available for initial details. I plan on using this with my high fantasy version of YAGS, which requires that I finish writing the magic system for that.
Other notes are also available for now over on the Eyressia page on this site, and I've added a link in the sidebar as well.
I've started running the final chapter of my Rise of the Runelords campaign, Spires of Xin-Shalast. As part of this, I've started a GM's commentary on the campaign over on my NotASnark blog. It won't contain spoilers for what's coming, but will contain information about plot points that have happened so far.
This campaign will take the characters up to 17th level, which is the highest we've been so far in Pathfinder. I've got ideas though for how to take things beyond this if the players want to continue on to higher levels.
Also on that blog are player accounts of Serpent's Skull and Strange Aeons campaigns, along with everything else I play (such as Delta Green).
With the coming demise of Google+, which is where most of my public posting has been done for the last eight years, I have created a new site dedicated to blog posts. This can be found at https://blog.notasnark.com/. This site will continue to be used to publish articles and information, but my usual G+ activity will be moved to the new site.

DARTMOUTH — Dartmouth native Melissa Zeitz has received the government's highest honor for teaching mathematics or science in grades K-12.
"I am still in awe," she said Wednesday from Washington, D.C., where she received the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching.
Zeitz, 40, teaches computer science in the Springfield public schools and coordinates integration of technology into the curriculum.
Presidential Award winners from across the country gathered in D.C. this week for three days of professional development, a reception and dinner at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and an awards ceremony.
Zeitz, who graduated from Dartmouth High School, said her own experience overcoming a learning disability made her passionate about helping students succeed with the help of technology.
"Computers pretty much changed my education," she said. "I became a stronger student."
Before that, learning was a struggle. Her mother, Marsha Zeitz, said her daughter had trouble when she tried to put pen to paper. Typing on a keyboard made things easier.
"She feels strongly that any child, any student, can achieve," her mother said.
A guidance counselor suggested she aim for community college, but she wanted to go straight to a four-year school. She was admitted to UMass Amherst, where she earned bachelor's and master's degrees.
"I have the most supportive parents in the world," she said.
Her parents, Marsha and Judd Zeitz, live in Dartmouth. They traveled to Washington for the celebration.
"I just am so proud of who she is and what she's accomplished," her mother said.
Zeitz teaches at Liberty Elementary School in Springfield. She started in special education, but she gravitated toward technology as a way to make sure she was giving her students everything she had, she said.
She credited her principal, Robin Bailey-Sanchez, with saying "yes" to Zeitz creating a computer science curriculum. Zeitz serves as Springfield's technology and curriculum coordinator for a five-year, $2 million grant the schools received in cooperation with UMass Amherst from the computer science organization CSforALL.
The Presidential Award, established in 1983, recognizes teachers based on their distinction in the classroom and their dedication to improving education in science, technology, engineering and math.
A panel of mathematicians, scientists and educators reviews applications at the state and national levels before making recommendations to the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. That office and the National Science Foundation facilitate the nominations and awards.

What's the point in having an "Oscars" for Alpinism? If we look at the Piolets d'Or in the same way we look at grading, something which is highly subjective and only interesting to climbers who aspire to do the route being graded, it can be a fun event to follow. First of all, we have to remember the controversy that has surrounded this event in the past. Having a few guys telling a few other guys that they did a route unworthy of the award is crazy. It's all a strange game and some climbers try to make a statement by refusing to be nominated while others try to be part of the circus and influence the outcome.
I'm in the latter category. For me personally, it's a fun event and a great way to meet friends, socialize and climb. The organizers have tried to take the edge off some of the past emotions by introducing a new format where five or six teams are nominated and more than one award can be given, for example in categories emphasizing "technical difficulty", "commitment" and "exploration". I guess in theory one team can grab all three awards but this is a highly unlikely scenario. In this year's bag is a nice mix of great achievements, some maybe better than others, some more hyped than others but the key element is that they are all great achievements, illustrating the beauty of the pure alpine challenge and in the age of relentless commercialism, over-hyping of 8000m 'heroes' and even blatant fraudulence to gain entry to this club, the appeal of the alpine ideal should not be allowed to dim.
To further widen the event and make it less about comparing and judging, the organizers have also included a "life-time achievement" award. Last year's recipient, to everyone's joy, was the rehabilitated Walter Bonatti. This year, Reinhold Messner will be honored with the award, and again I think few will object. It's hard to see that this can really upset anyone as long as it recognizes style before public glory.
I personally will pay most attention to the "Spirit of Mountaineering" award. This is given to climbers who risk it all in order to try and save fellow climbers stuck where no one else can get to them. This might not be the coolest award in alpine climbing, but in my opinion, and up against the possible style squabbles separating the achievements of the Piolet d'Or contenders, it is only truly interesting and unequivocally deserved award on offer.
At the end of the day, the Piolet d'Or is like most things in life a matter of taste and choice. I think that, independent of who walks away with the axe(s), it's a great way to promote alpinism and alpine climbing. I think it's a great way for climbers who do not prioritize the running of a well-oiled PR machine to end up in the spotlight and receive some public recognition for their efforts in the Greater Ranges, which remain an enduring bastion of adventure on our over-civilized planet. Let's face it: at the end of the day, an award has a huge value to the recipient, not only privately, in terms of that recognition for many years of quiet striving, but also commercially. It might not change the world, but it can certainly change the opportunities to find sponsors and partners for future projects, and thus act as a springboard for a climbing career.

Spring is upon us, and for many would be home sellers, that means it is now time to get serious about putting your home on the market.
I was recently contacted by an out of town seller, who has not lived in their particular home in about a year! That's quite a long time for a house to sit empty. You can imagine that there are plenty of items on the seller's to do list to get this vacant house ready to potential buyers! Listed below are the top 5 things that sellers should do to get their home ready for the market:
Take care of all major and know repair jobs
- Every home will occasionally need a repair. Maybe it's your air conditioner, maybe it's a roofing leak. But when you are putting your home on the market, the last thing you need is for costly repairs to kill the deal. Make sure that all the major systems of the home are in good working order, and that all known repairs have been done. If you haven't lived in your home in a while, you may want to consider having the home inspected by a licensed home inspector to reveal any problems you are unaware of.
Declutter closets and living spaces
The longer you live in a space, the more filled with your stuff it becomes. This is normal and part of life, but when you decide to sell your home, you don't want potential buyers to get caught up in your things, and miss how great your home is. Make sure that closets are partially empty, giving the feel of ample storage space. Also, make sure that countertops and tabletops are clutter free and visually appealing. This article from Budget Dumpsters will help you make sense of the decluttering process.
There is no need to remove personal photos from your home, as long as they are not overwhelming.
Buyers are not drawn in by dirty drab walls. Buyers also aren't' interested in the thought of having to repaint walls once they move in. Paint gives a Big Bang for the buck, and can do wonders for setting your home above the crowd. Choose neutral colors that will appeal to the majority of buyers. Don't pick colors that are too dark, too bright, or too personal. Make sure the wall color offers a neutral backdrop that will draw the buyers eye to how awesome the space is, and help them envision their belongings in that space.
Have carpets and rugs professionally cleaned.
Most buyers are turned off by dirty floors. So, if you have stained and soiled carpets, you need to take care of this problem prior to marketing your home. If the carpets don't come clean when professionally shampooed, you may want to consider replacing them prior to listing, or offering a flooring allowance to the buyer to compensate for the aged flooring.
Clean your yard and spruce up landscaping.
Your yard makes the first impression for a buyer. So, it is vitally important that the yard be great. Make sure that you have taken care of weeds and overgrown bushes/trees. Trim hedges and plant fresh colored plants, drought tolerant plants near the doorways. Also, placing planters on each side of your front door maximizes curb appeal and helps buyers focus on your home. Put fresh mulch in the flower beds and sweep the porch and garage. Don't be afraid to go overboard with the mulch! Just make sure it stays in the designated areas. Buy new door mats. Pressure wash everything. You may also consider painting your front door. Bold colors are all the buzz these days, and will draw the eye in. If you need ideas to add curb appeal, this great article from buzzfeed should help. https://pin.it/cmds7qyi2s6hc
The next step in the selling process is to contact a licensed real estate professional. It is a proven fact that realtors help most sellers get significantly higher sales prices, navigate through the maze of to-do more efficiently, and have higher satisfaction with the process of selling.

Toward the end of last year, I decided to make a budget for our tiny household.
You see, my husband and I were always decent with money. We have both worked since we have graduated from college and managed to somehow save money even when we weren't paying attention to our finances. However, once we had to pay for our wedding in its entirety, I started to think we should draw-up a budget.
My budget, for the most part, is somewhat flexible and somewhat rigid. I am going to share my budget here with you and include the analysis I did via my six-month mark:
Regular Expenses – Regular expenses are those that are generally a fixed amount every month.
- Rent: $1300.00
- Phone Bill: $130.50 (+/- $1.00)
- Auto Insurance: $91.42 (This has occasionally gone up or down but seems set for now.)
- Internet: $39.95
- Student Loan Deduction: $50.00
- Netflix: $8.00
- Gym: $10.00
Variable Expenses – These are expenses I have budgeted for every month but are in no way fixed.
- Home Care: $50.00 – Current six-month analysis says my average spending in this category is between $20-$25/month, including some months in which the amount is zero.
- Groceries: $300.00 – Only had one month where we went over budget; otherwise, a six-month analysis puts our average spending at approximately $222/month.
- Dining Out: $250.00 – I am the first one to admit that eating out is a money pit and this is the only place I lack restraint. The thing is, I rarely spend my money on things I enjoy and this just happens to be something I love. This includes any fast food, coffee stops, etc. I have gone over budget three out of the six months and my average spending is approximately $238/month. Ouch.
- Car Gas: $125.00 – I actually had this at $100/month but I changed my budget around because I realized I hadn't budgeted enough for gasoline. This especially holds true if we are taking day trips and considering the constant increases in gas prices. Six-month analysis has us spending a little over $100.00/month but I know that will increase.
- Haircuts: $20.00 – In actuality, my husband only gets his hair cut about once every two months and I almost never get my haircut because I grow it out and donate it. Thus our average spending has us at slightly under $5/month. I also do not do anything to my hair—no dyes, no treatments—and I'm lucky to have nice hair.
- Electric+Gas: $125.00 – This is actually an overstatement for most months. Considering we use very little in terms of electricity when it is not summer, our current average is around $71.00. When we are running the air conditioner, however, it is incredibly easy to go over the $125.00 mark so that is why I budgeted for so much.
- Misc: $200.00 – This is for anything we want to buy that is extraneous, such as a new video game, a park pass, etc. I cannot really analyze this area except to say it can be easy for us to stay under it; however, we have made some very large purchases that I put into here (such as a $3500.00 couch) which completely throw off the numbers.
- Transit Card: $25.00 – I actually had this at around $50.00 for when I was trying to take a class but then I took over $25.00 and moved it to the gasoline. I actually haven't purchased anything for mass transit in months because I no longer take the class and I am lucky enough to walk to work most days.
- Clothes: $50.00 – We actually don't shop very often so we have averaged out at around $30.91 per month for clothing purchases. This may change in the future though because my husband has recently ripped a ton of clothing.
Irregular Expenses – These are expenses I have listed in my budget but vary so much that I have them in a separate category. I do have a budget set-up for them and hope not to exceed it.
- Car Maintenance: So far I have really only had to buy new brakes this year. Note: I am incredibly lucky in this category because my dad is a mechanic so I don't pay for labor or oil changes.
- Medical Costs: This year I have obtained incredible insurance which allows me office visits, generic prescriptions, etc at no cost. My husband has not-so-great insurance and pays $25 for PCP visits and $40 for specialty visits.
- Medicine: Generics cost him $15 and he has two-ongoing prescriptions for things. I used to pay $15/month for my prescription but not anymore!
- Gifts: This one gets pretty crazy depending on the month. December is a hot mess because of Christmas and we end up spending well-over $500 for gifts because there are so many people we have to buy gifts for so I'm not a fan of December. Certain months are also killers for us — May included three birthdays and Mother's Day!
Overall, I think the budget has been all right. Considering that we made a large purchase this year (the couch), we have saved a good amount of money. I think if I could change one thing it would be the eating out portion of it but I love food too much. 🙂 Does anyone else have a budget? Do you think mine is crazy in some areas?

Two sites in Rosyth have made the final shortlist for Heathrow expansion logistics hubs.
The shortlist, announced today (28 March) narrows down the list of ten possible sites in Scotland to four. The two Fife sites are both in Rosyth – at Babcock and Forth Ports.
Welcoming the news, Cllr David Alexander, co-leader of Fife Council said: "This is great news for Fife. Being part of this pioneering project would not only bring many jobs, but also upskill our communities with a world-class construction legacy for generations to come."
Cllr David Ross, co-leader of Fife Council added: "Fife is an unrivalled position, having two out of four Scottish sites in contention for this investment. We look forward to working with partners in making a strong case, building on Fife's key role in recent major infrastructure schemes like the Queensferry Crossing.
"Both Fife sites offer excellent transport links, great infrastructure and competitive land along with a strong and innovative supply chain of local companies. With work scheduled to start in 2021, if implemented this project will bring huge benefits to industry and business here."
Heathrow's expansion is the first major infrastructure project in the UK to pioneer the large-scale use of logistics hubs and aims to create jobs in every corner of the UK while creating a legacy of construction excellence in the UK for future generations. The hubs will work by pre-assembling components off-site before transporting them in consolidated loads to Heathrow when needed.
Sean Donaldson, Managing Director of Babcock's Rosyth facility said:
"We welcome the news that Babcock has been shortlisted for the Heathrow Logistics Hub.
"Babcock's manufacturing and logistics capabilities at our world-class infrastructure in Rosyth stands ready to provide an efficient, affordable and sustainable solution to meet Heathrow's varying demands.
"We look forward to the next stage in this process to deliver a programme of work that will 'make every journey better' and help Heathrow maintain a world-leading position as a hub airport."
Derek Knox, Senior Port Manager, Port of Rosyth:
"The Port of Rosyth is very pleased to have been shortlisted for the next stage of the process for the Heathrow Expansion Logistics Hub. In Rosyth we offer a great location, land and expertise for a logistics hub of this scale.
There has been recent significant investment in the port and it played a key role as the logistics hub for the construction project of the new Queensferry Crossing. We look forward to hearing from the Heathrow team about the next stage of the process."

Guys, how bad-ass was Smallville: Absolute Justice?! INSANELY BAD-ASS, is what I'm saying.
Stargirl, Hawkman, Dr. Fate, Icicle and Amanda Waller all dropped in to pay our beloved Metropolis residents a little visit. And then…shit got awesome!
Geoff Johns did a brilliant job of writing a standalone ep for DC Comics lovers while advancing the plot of several Smallville threads. I am loath to spoil any reveals of this spectacular 2-hour episode, so let me just say: the advances in respects to Martian Manhunter, Watchtower and the Justice League family, the fates of Clark, Chloe and Lois, and the little bomb Dr. Fate dropped on Clark regarding a certain nemesis were all mind-blowing!

Hello Smallville fans! This post is for you today–that's right, every single one of you!
As previously posted on DIH, producers are marveling that the typical death knell that is the Friday Night Move is proving to not be as lethal as expected for our resilient little show. Smallville's pretty much kicking ass and taking names in the Friday night department (hardly a juggernaut evening, but still), and producers and other PTB are already talking about a 10th season.

(a) For each early retiree enrolled in a certified plan in a plan year, the sponsor receives reimbursement in the amount of 80 percent of the costs for health benefits (net of negotiated price concessions for health benefits) for claims incurred during the plan year that are attributed to health benefits costs between the cost threshold and cost limit, and that are paid by the employment-based plan or by the insurer (if an insured plan), and by the early retiree.

(c) Reimbursement is calculated by first determining the costs for health benefits net of negotiated price concessions, within the applicable plan year for each early retiree, and then subtracting amounts below the cost threshold and above the cost limit within the applicable plan year for each such individual.
(d) For purposes of determining amounts below the cost threshold and above the cost limit for any given early retiree, all costs for health benefits paid by the employment-based plan (or by the insurer, if applicable), or by or on behalf of, an early retiree, for all benefit options the early retiree is enrolled in with respect to a given certified employment-based plan for a given plan year, will be combined. For each early retiree enrolled in an employment-based plan, there is only one cost threshold and one cost limit per plan year regardless of the number of benefit options the early retiree is enrolled in during that plan year.

Hi @iamecho,
Thanks for discovering and reporting this. We welcome any issues you'd like to report, whether or not they seem trivial.
I was also able to easily reproducible this on an iPhone 5c but, interesting, not on an iPad Air 2. That's a clue it might be device-specific; which type of device(s) does it happen on for you?
I've filed a bug for this; thanks again for reporting it!
ref: OPI-3469
Thanks for the quick follow-up, @iamecho. I've updated the bug report details to include those differences you've mentioned, which supports the possibility of this being limited to non-iPad devices rather than something display-specific.
I didn't think to check my iPad mini but will from now on if reporting something.
Any multi-device testing you can do is appreciated but don't let that be an inconvenience.
More often I'll first notice issues with 1Password on an iPad, then check if they're reproducible on an iPhone.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend and have a great week!

Attention Artists: We Want YOU!
The Organizers of The 2009 BRIDGE PROJECT seek YOUR ideas!
The BRIDGE PROJECT—taking place September 25 and 26, 2009, at the Streetcar Level of the Detroit Superior Bridge—will be a Colossal Convening of local and regional artists who will showcase their work in one of this region's most amazing and underused locations.
BRIDGE PROJECT organizers will showcase the work of approximately forty artists at this location and we invite you to submit a proposal to occupy one of these spaces – which span the entirety of the bridge (from the tunnels and catacombed spaces at the west side of this bridge, to the arched walkway of the span itself, to the large pillar decked area at the east side). We are looking for quality and diversity of form and media.
We are seeking participation by Visual Artists, Installation Artists, Musicians, Media Artists, Light and Sound Artists, Theatre Artists, Poets, Sculptors, Audio Artists, Performance Artists, Laser Artists, electronic Artists, Drummers, Video Makers, Filmmakers, Dancers, Floral Artists, Street Performers, Visionaries, Vendors and More…
If you are interested in submitting a proposal to showcase your work, click here for an application.
For more photos of the bridge space where exhibits will be displayed, visit our flickr site.
This event is being organized by The Cleveland Ingenuity Festival, The KSU Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative, Cleveland Public Art, the Flats OxBow Neighborhood Development Corporation, and All Go Signs.

I love that KSU's graduate design students are focusing on the impact of temporary use events, and the Bridge Project in particular. The Pop Up City events have been the hottest thing going.
I hope that we can raise awareness of the bridge's potential as a space both on the lower gritty former subway deck and the upper sparkling don harvey eco art and bike lane deck for the connections it provides. what works and what doesn't (I'm referring to the lack of connection at either end of the bridge from the bike lane to safe cycling conditions, which better design of the roadway and public right of way can provide).

Thanks for reading our blog, Marc!
We're pretty excited about the Pop Up Events as well, and we hope that they do bring out awareness of these beautiful urban spaces for future development.
I'm going to let Terry know about your comment just to see what she has to say about potential future development for the bridge.
On another note, I'd love for you to check out my other blog, RenovatingtheRustBelt.wordpress.com, and let me know what you think. GreenCityBlueLake has been a huge inspiration!
Best wishes,

How much has Huw's ego cost us

Jack Rodwell
at 16:14 16 Jan 2018
Sorry if ferdy, tried finding if it's been posted before
But to those who say we won't do a Sunderland, how similar does this story sound?
WHEN the story of Sunderland's calamitous decline is told in a couple of decades' time, the role played by Jack Rodwell will barely merit a footnote. Yet when it comes to explaining why the club finds itself at the foot of the Championship table, saddled with debts of more than £100m, the tale of the invisible England international could hardly be more instructive.
Even for a club that has set new standards of ineptitude in the last few years, Rodwell's three-and-a-half years as a Sunderland player represent a remarkable new low. And despite this week's talk of cancelled contracts and mutual agreements, the most staggering aspect of all is that there could still be another 18 months of this sorry saga to run.
The numbers make for harrowing reading. Rodwell was signed from Manchester City for £10m in August 2014, and is understood to have been awarded a five-year contract worth £70,000-a-week.
He has spent 180 weeks as a Sunderland player, picking up £12.6m in wages. In that time, he has made 76 senior appearances, 23 of which were as a substitute. If his transfer fee and wages are combined, he has cost Sunderland £299,000 per appearance. Or to put it another way, the club has shelled out more than £4,700 for every minute he has been on the field.
Perhaps that would have been worth it if Rodwell had been leading Sunderland to a succession of Premier League wins. Instead, the 26-year-old has made 44 league starts for the Black Cats – and only one of those games resulted in a victory. To all intents and purposes, Sunderland have spent more than £22m to secure a 4-0 win at Crystal Palace in February 2017.
The sums are staggering, and if Rodwell opts to see out the remainder of his contract, he will leave the Stadium of Light having earned £18.2m in wages over the duration of his deal. Plus the one win bonus from Selhurst Park.
Rarely can a player have taken so much for so little, and having completely fallen out of love with the game over the course of the last 12 months, it would suit everyone for Rodwell to walk away and make a new start.
A player with three senior England caps to his name, and who was once touted as the answer to this country's central-midfield issues, would have the opportunity to rebuild his career while there might still be clubs in the top two divisions willing to take a chance on him. Chris Coleman would have a £70,000-a-week gap in his wage bill, waiting to be filled by some much-needed acquisitions. And Sunderland would be able to move on from an extremely costly mistake.
It all sounds so easy, yet the fact that Rodwell remains on Sunderland's books despite having asked to leave at the start of the month proves it is anything but. The reality is that the Black Cats' highest-paid player is perfectly within his rights to sit tight for the next 18 months and continue to count his money. Ultimately, it is the club to blame for the current shambles, not him.
What on earth were Sunderland thinking back in 2014 when they signed off the Rodwell deal and agreed to the midfielder being one of the only players on the club's books not to have a relegation clause inserted into his contract?
The transfer made no sense at the time, and is even harder to explain now, yet it was far from the only instance of dreadful decision making to have occurred on Ellis Short's watch. In fact, the Rodwell signing fits neatly into a pattern of chaotic management that has driven Sunderland to the brink of League One.
Two-and-a-half months before Rodwell arrived, Sunderland had clambered to Premier League safety under Gus Poyet. They were locked into a recurring narrative. New manager arrives and drags the team out of the bottom three. New manager asks for a barrel-load of money and is given it to make new signings. New manager abandons everything that his predecessor had been building. New manager starts to struggle, is sacked, and becomes the old manager. A new manager is appointed and the whole sorry cycle starts again.
The upshot was that Sunderland signed 45 players under a succession of different bosses, and made a profit on just three of them. That's how you rack up £100m of debt even though your owner continues tipping money down a black hole.
Sporting director Lee Congerton was in charge of recruitment when Rodwell was signed, and no doubt wanted to make his mark. Margaret Byrne was the chief executive charged with the task of drawing up contracts, and appears to have been out of her depth from the outset. Poyet wanted high-profile new signings, and was delighted to see Sunderland outbid a number of their Premier League rivals to land a player who had recently been playing for England.

Guys from Australia but how do people honestly still think this!?
Think I'm Done. Phoenix Club Anyone?

Sick of putting money into the yanks and especially Jenkins pockets
This clubs become a joke
And I've lost complete faith in the Trust
Getting relegated won't change anything
We've lost our identity and our club
I'd much rather watch some local lads and start again
i'd even pay the exact same amount for that
Ayew's shirt number...wtf!?
at 02:06 3 Feb 2017
According to the official site its number 3, for a striker!? hes not Gyan

Narsingh Deal Done

Paul Clement - He's set to sign. The medical is done and pending the paperwork he'll be a Swansea City player. It's pleasing to get it done. He's a player the club identified before I arrived but I'm more than happy for it to go ahead. When I was at Bayern we played against him at Eindhoven. He'll bring another dynamic to the team, he has pace, he scores goals and experience of a higher level. He is a good calibre of player.

Cancelled apparently as Bilic feels his players dont deserve to celebrate

just scored for Marseille
At least we'll have him for the championship
Was Bobs change of tactics forced by Sigurdsson?
at 23:35 6 Nov 2016
Im pretty sure i saw Sigurdsson have a go at Bob after the third goal, and tell Routledge and Borja to go on the wings
Anyone else see that?
I'm excited for Saturday
at 16:16 16 Oct 2016
To finally have a game we can realistically look to get points from
Arsenal was a write off so Bob could see what what he was dealing with, and there was a few positives
Barrow starting and looking to last the entire game before being hacked
Sigurdsson as a false nine, with fer just in behind, best way to play them both
and hopefully Bob will see Taylor and Fernandez need to be dropped, and Ki needs to go spend some time in the reserves
Giggs turned us down because we didnt have the same ambitions...
at 17:59 8 Oct 2016
what a chicken nugget he is
Liam Cullen
at 14:26 29 Sep 2016
Pretty sure he's training with the first teamin the training video on YouTube
Leroy Fer
at 01:04 12 Sep 2016
Lots of people bashing the lad, shockingly so the last few days
His pass in the build up to the penalty and his goal
3 in 4 for him, what more does he need to do?
Free Agents
at 15:25 1 Sep 2016
So after a disastrous deadline day, where we probably needed 4 signings, not just a West Ham reject, could we possibly look to free agents?
Sky Sports have a Free agents XI up and dare i say there's some good options there?
Caceres is the pick of the bunch for me

London's stock market rallied Tuesday to a new two-month peak, supercharged by a Brexit-hit pound and energy giant BP's surging annual profits.
The FTSE 100 index rose just over two percent, with increases in other European indices not far behind.
Wall Street built on the previous day's gains ahead of US President Donald Trump's State of the Union address.
Sterling sank on news that activity in Britain's dominant service sector almost ground to a halt in January, as companies fretted over the nation's looming departure from the European Union next month.
The weak pound boosted the FTSE 100 because the benchmark index features large multinationals earning in dollars and euros.
"Results from BP and a weakening pound have propelled the FTSE 100 to a fresh two-month high," said IG analyst Chris Beauchamp.
"Equities around the world remain in robust mood," he added.
The IHS Markit/CIPS UK services purchasing managers' index fell to 50.1 -- its lowest level in two and a half years -- down from 51.2 a month earlier. A reading above 50 indicates growth.
Concerns about Britain's impending departure from the European Union dampened demand and caused firms to delay making decisions on new projects.
EU president Jean-Claude Juncker will host May for talks in Brussels on Thursday as the two sides seek to save their Brexit deal.
- 'Warning signs flashing' -
Tuesday's services data followed disappointing manufacturing and construction numbers, with analysts declaring that warning lights were flashing.
"A third consecutive data point from the UK in as many business days has flashed a further warning sign for the economy," said XTB analyst David Cheetham.
"The latest purchasing managers index for the service sector -- which due to its relative size is considered the most important -- has fallen to its lowest level since July 2016, the month after the EU referendum.
In company news, British energy giant BP topped the FTSE leaderboard after revealing that annual net profit almost tripled to $9.4 billion (8.2 billion euros) last year as oil prices soared. Shares jumped more than five percent.
Wall Street, meanwhile, enjoyed another positive day, boosted by another good performance by large tech names and Boeing, which advanced 3.3 percent after confirming it would lift production of its wide-body 787 aircraft to 14 per month from 12.
The gains came ahead of Trump's big address to Congress at which the US president is expected to emphasize infrastructure spending and argue the need for a wall along the Mexican border after a dispute with congressional Democrats shut the government for more than a month.

Serie A enters week 25 and with just 13 games left the only sure thing is that Juventus will again be Serie A Champions. Meanwhile, the battle for 4th place is entering squeaky bum time stage. There are 4 teams battling for 2 places and this weekend will define if any one of those team will still be in the running. Read our predictions for the key games this weekend in Serie A.
Milan vs Empoli
Kick-off: Week 25, Friday 22 February, 20:30
Early fixture at the San Siro on Friday night with on-form Milan facing lowly Empoli. Last week, Milan had one of their best matches this season in a 3-1 comeback away to Atalanta in Bergamo. The first half saw Atalanta dominate the ball and be dangerous at times. They went ahead only for Milan to draw before half time. In the 2nd half, Gattuso's men wanted the win more than Atalanta did and bomber Krzysztof Piatek put Milan ahead with Calanoglu capping the result at 3-1.
This win should take Milan into this fixture feeling confident and more motivated. The home crowd will be enthusiastic to see their team back where they belong. The Champions League is part of Milan's DNA and therefore they will be longing to get back into the mix.
Milan will be missing Suso as he is suspended for this game. Gattuso will nevertheless field a strong squad with a suitable substitute. 3 points here and Milan can start dreaming.
After 24 games, Empoli sit in 17th place in Serie A. That is just 3 points above relegation zone and this does not look good for them. At the end of matchday 25, they may find themselves deep into the relegation battle. Luckily for them, Frosinone play Roma and Bologna play Juventus.
In terms of betting, this fixture only offers around 1.40 for a home win. Considering the last 5 matches between these two in Milan have ended with a marginal 1 goal win for either side or in a draw, the value here is not high enough. In reality, the best betting value here lies in taking a -1 Asian handicap. Our prediction here is that Milan come out gunning and take this win by 2 goals or more.
- Milan to win outright
- Krzysztof Piatek to score 2 or more
- Milan to win -1 Asian handicap
- Over 1.5 team yellow cards for Empoli
All these markets are available on Bet365 and if you sign up using the offer below you get some bonus money to play with.
Frosinone vs Roma
Kick-off: Week 25, Saturday 23 February, 20:30
Relegation ridden Frosinone face off with Roma this weekend. The home side are on 18 points tied with Bologna and 3 points away from the 17th place (the safe spot). Unfortunately for them their opponents seem to have found some form of late. This all stems from their young star midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo.
The young Italian midfielder has probably been Serie A's best local talent story this season. He has dazzled the crowd with his wizard passing and with his ability to score goals like Roma legend Totti. In a way, Zaniolo feels like Totti's heir. Something that Roma had been craving to find since the Re Leone's retirement a few years ago.
Roma are still missing some talented players with the likes of Schick and Under still out with injury problems. The last head to head games between Frosinone and Roma have gone Roma's way with convincing wins. The away side have all to play for in the battle for Top 4 and will be motivated to get their win in this game.
Similarly to the Milan game, the Roma away win only pays 1.50. They are the superior team, however at that price it would not represent enough reward. In our opinion, the Asian handicap once again comes into play here and we'd be more inclined to go for Roma -1 on this one.
In addition to the above, Frosinone will be fighting for points here and we expect them to be highly strung. This will mean hard fouls and yellow cards.
- Roma to win outright
- Over 2.5 team cards for Frosinone
- Roma to score in the first half
Bologna vs Juventus
Kick-off: Week 25, Sunday 24 February, 15:00
Serie A is a safehaven for Juventus. The Bianconeri had a disastrous First leg in Champions league on Wednesday against Atletico Madrid. Allegri's squad looked less energetic than usual and simply were not good enough.
It seems that Juventus' problem this year is their midfield. There is a general lack of quality in midfield for Juventus. This paired with some unlikely defensive blunders has put Juve in a tough spot. Ronaldo has also disappointed in the Champions League.
This weekend, they play Bologna away. Look for this game to be a cool down after all the critics this week. Allegri will want to instill confidence back into the squad with a good win. Juventus will most likely field a 4-3-3 with Ronaldo Mandzukic and Douglas Costa upfront.
Bologna have been showing more drive and better football since Sinisa Mihajlovic took over a couple of games ago. They may have a few good runs forward but they will not pose any serious threats to Juve. Much like the other two games in our Serie A predictions for this weekend, the odds here are not attractive enough to take a chance on.
What we do envisage however is Bologna wanting to overpower Juve with their physique. This will lead to hard fouls and yellow cards.
- Juventus to win outright
- Over 2.5 team yellow cards for Bologna
- Over 0.5 first half goals.
Fiorentina vs Inter
Kick-off: Week 25, Sunday 24 February, 20:30
Here we are with the game of the week! This is both in terms of the names on the fixture list but also in terms of availability of sports betting odds on this game. I could make an argument that sticking with Fiorentina on this one is a great idea. This is how I have come to this conclusion.
Inter are currently playing a Europa League game as we speak. Thursday night games are always taxing on a team's energy and general wellbeing. What is also strange is the story around their star striker, Mauro Icardi. It seems that a failed attempt at contract renewal for Mauro has sent the player into a downward spiral of mental block and niggling injuries. He will miss the 4th consecutive game this weekend and it in addition to the off-pitch drama, he claims to have sustained an injury. Therefore with their best striker out Inter are struggling to get goals as easily as before.
Scoring goals is certainly not a problem for Fiorentina. In fact, they are the highest scoring team in the last 5 games in all competitions. Fiore are also strong at home and have been known to take over games with their pace.
The Viola are expected to field their strongest outfit with a 4-3-3 with Chiesa, Simeone and Gerson upfront. They could also switch it around with Muriel (their newest addition to the squad). Nevertheless it is clear here where the opportunities lie in the sports betting odds available.
This game will be of best value using the both teams to score market (this has happened 80% of the time in the last 5 meetings between these two teams). In addition to this, both teams play an attacking style of football with lots of shots and balls coming off the line and crossed in. Inter have the highest corner rate per game in the league. For this write, this means a high number of corners.
- Both teams to score
- Over 11 corners
Odds are correct at time of publishing

Seth Wenig | AP Juul products are displayed at a smoke shop in New York, Thursday, Dec. 20, 2018. It's getting harder to be a cigarette company. Altria knows that. Altria shelled out $14.6 billion to take large stakes in companies outside its traditional hold in cigarettes over the past two weeks — a 45 percent share of cannabis company Cronos and 35 percent stake in e-cigarette maker Juul. The latter, which valued Juul at $38 billion, prohibits Altria from taking a controlling interest for at least six years. Juul…Read More

Oil Jumps As Yuan Hits 2016 High; Investors Put Fresh Cash Into Oil
Singapore: Oil prices jumped on Friday supported by fresh investment and a weaker dollar, which makes fuel cheaper for importers using other currencies, but analysts warned that a stronger price rally was premature as a global glut remained in place. U.S. crude futures were trading at $38.64 a barrel at 0749 GMT, up 80 cents and over 2 percent from their last close. Traders said reports that commodity merchant Gunvor was the latest company to export U.S. sweet crude also supported WTI prices. Brent crude futures were at $40.70 a…Read More

Chromeo – "Juice (Yuksek Remix)"
Chromeo definitely knows exactly how to handle their remixes. They enlisted one of our favorites, Yuksek, to put his golden touch on their delectable new track "Juice." And the results are even better than you could imagine. Each of them is strong with the funk in their own right, but once Yuksek puts his spin on it it's like we are transported back to the golden era of disco. We can totally plan a party around this track. Flashing disco balls, everyone looking beautiful and the dance floor at capacity with this remix playing front and center.
