Fans of The Walking Dead rejoice, for the wait is almost over! Telltale Games has announced that the first episode of The Walking Dead Season 2 is coming this month followed by The Wolf Among Us after Christmas.
Earlier today, Telltale Games gave a sneak peek for the upcoming second episode of The Wolf Among Us which you can check at their site. Among the exciting new information and screenshots for the upcoming episode; Telltale gave an answer as to the release date of the much awaited season 2 of The Walking Dead.
"Stay tuned for more updates as they happen, and if you're also a fan of The Walking Dead, definitely check back for news on the Season Two premiere, set to arrive later THIS MONTH on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, Mac, and iOS!" — Telltale Games
So there you have it, if you been waiting for the second season all year long, well your patience is about to be rewarded. As for the The Wolf Among Us it should be noted that while they have indicated that they will have a better ETA for the release after Christmas, it shouldn't be surprising if this release takes place at a late January or early February date.
Being a new project on Kickstarter can be hard. Most projects do not go anywhere, especially when they come seemingly out of nowhere or without the power of Keiji Inafune driving long-awaited fan desires.
The Diviner, a narrative RPG with particular emphasis on good writing and swanky art, will not be one of those forgotten projects. It achieved its $10,000 funding goal on Thanksgiving, roughly a week after its launch on Kickstarter, and while momentum has slowed it appears to still be garnering attention. The game, made by Two Crowns Entertainment, aims to be a modern re-imagining of old text-based adventure games. It takes place in an expansive fantastical world and has everything a proper fantasy adventure needs, from character customization to player-driven romantic subplots to rebellions and deities.

Hardware manufacturer Nvidia may have found itself left out from this console cycle, with PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Wii U all touting AMD graphics, but that doesn't mean they're out of the gaming loop; some of the most powerful graphics cards exist on the PC platform, and are produced by Nvidia. In an interview with MCV, Nvidia consumer sales manager Matt Wright claims that the PC platform is superior to any of its competitors, citing the added utility of a desktop computer as a benefit.
"The PC platform is far superior to any console when it comes to gaming, plus you get all the extra functionality that a computer brings." – Matt Wright
Moreover, Wright also spoke about Valve's SteamOS and PCs as living-room replacements to consoles, but you'll have to hit the jump to read about that!
Kickstarter has become the indie developer's best friend the last few years, with games like A Hat in Time and Mighty No. 9 meeting incredible support from fans who are more than happy to throw a little change behind the developers. Well, Lobodestroyo is trying to do the same, and in my opinion it's one of the best-looking ones yet.
It's similar to A Hat in Time in that it's a love letter to platforming collect-a-thons, but there's a healthy dose of Metroid and Mega Man influences in its game design, with bosses giving you extra powers and open levels that get larger and richer to explore as you gain new abilities. It's also got buckets of Luchador personality and a humor all its own. The game is guaranteed to go to the Wii U if they meet their goal, with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as stretch goals, but they need some help to get there. See the Kickstarter video after the jump!
A game which seeks to set itself apart from the various cliches and over-indulgences of so many games, Bloom: Memories is a unique action-adventure which takes inspiration from classics like the influential emergent stealth series Thief and a franchise we all know and love, The Legend of Zelda. That's before you even mention how beautiful the game looks (screenshot to your left).
Bloom's been on its third attempted Kickstarter campaign for a few weeks now, and it is with a happy heart that I now confirm that the project has been successfully funded, passing it's $40,000 goal just days ago. Though there are of course still the stretch goals to consider, Bloom is now officially en route to release.
The coinciding update also announced a way to get alpha access, so head past the jump to read about that!
Earlier today, Steam peaked at 7,190,578 concurrent users, a new record for the service. Just about a year ago, in November, the number of users was at 6 million, and that had represented 300% growth acceleration over the month. The sudden jump in users may be explained by the holiday sale, and the competition against the launch of the next-gen consoles. Click the jump for more information!
Now that their campaign has surpassed 1000 backers and 1000 Facebook shares, SnowCastle Games has, as promised, released a free pre-alpha demo for their upcoming title Festival of Magic, an upcoming Wii U and PC JRPG which is currently seeking $250,000 in crowdfunding on Kickstarter.
The update releasing the free demo cautions that it is only "a very early peak" and that much of it is unfinished or placeholder work which "will be vastly improved up on." The update also makes very clear that "the game is best played with a PS3 or Xbox360 controller," so if you can help it, don't get stuck with a mouse and keyboard.
A link to find the demo and quotations from the update are inside.
It's become a pretty commonly accepted fact that developing for and porting to the PlayStation 3 was a real pain in the ass. I'm not a developer so I don't know the specifics, but there was something about the 'Cell' technology that was really different from anything else out there and confused a lot of people. With the PlayStation 4, Sony was looking to turn that around, and, for the most part, it sounds like they did. But according to The Witcher developer CD Projekt Red, development on PlayStation 4 is still "a little bit more complicated" than on Xbox One.
Though they see no "major power difference" between the two new consoles, the PlayStation 4 is apparently just a bit further removed from a general PC than the Xbox One, making Sony's console "a little bit more complicated." However, he makes sure to point out that it's still very much an easier process than developing for the PlayStation 3, where "it was very important to have a community, to share the information in some ways."
Quotations are after the jump.
On the development blog of Thekla's beautiful puzzle-adventure The Witness, director Jonathan Blow just yesterday made a post with the title "What could it mean??" alongside two very suspect screenshots, the first of which is viewable in miniature state to your left. So what do they mean? Well, I'm all-but certain The Witness is now confirmed to have support for the Oculus Rift VR headset.
First, the way the screenshots are split down the middle with a slightly different image on either side could very easily be due to the way the Oculus Rift's creation of the stereoscopic 3D effect by sending a slightly different image to each of your eyes. Second, the default names for the images when I downloaded them were "vr1" and "vr2," pretty heavily implying these screenshots have something to do with virtual reality. Third, Jonathan Blow was asked a while back in the comments section of another blog post whether The Witness was "planning on an [sic] VR or Oculus Rift support," to which Blow responded that Thekla were "thinking about" it, but that they had yet to decide.
Larger versions of both screenshots can be found inside.
One of the most highly anticipated independent games of 2013 was the retro-inspired Shovel Knight. With 8-bit era inspired visuals and gameplay, along with a release on the Wii U and 3DS, it tugged at many a nostalgic gamer's heartstrings. Unfortunately, or fortunately, developer Yacht Club Games decided to push the game into 2014.
Of course, this isn't an intrinsically bad decision; usually longer game development times equal a higher quality game. Sometimes this isn't the case, but with such a promising concept, we here at Gamnesia sincerely hope it is.
Is this a good thing, or a bad thing? You decide down in the comments!

I'm forever hot on the trail of my next adventure; whether frolicking on the beaches of Aruba, or the next zip code, seeking adventure in our own backyard. Or perhaps more relaxed moments like having a cocktail on my patio as I grill, spending time to uncover who you really are. If you love trying food in all it's forms I'll entice your culinary senses, and pair up with a Zin so fat it tastes like food, and some chill sounds.
I embrace my masculinity, and adore the feminine. Yes. I plan dates ... Just know that generally if you've garnered a spot on my radar, you won't hear "I dunno, so what do you wanna do?" So assuming you appreciate this as a woman this will say something about you. That you're not too emotionally attached to a social experiment gone awry that has left many men confused and aimless, and women disappointed, frustrated, and wondering how the hell we got here. You may long for a man's decisiveness, leadership, unwavering commitment to integrity and principles of self respect; more so, perhaps you long for a man who is respectful, a classical gentleman, yet incredibly playful and incorrigible and knows how to balance the two. Either that or you think this is the biggest steaming pile of tripe on the net. Haha. In which case, I wish you GodSpeed oh soldier of Cupid.

The application is a Flex front end, Coldfusion 9 middle tier and MySQL back end. I am using a RichTextEditor in the Flex front end text boxes so that users have an option of formatting. However, some users copy and paste content from MS-Word documents and some formatting like
cannot be stored at the MySQL back end(version 5.5.27) so there is an error when such formatting is tried to be added to the tables.
Is there a way I can convert just the special formatting characters to regular formatting like a • which can be stored in the MySQL tables or just remove the special formatting characters in Flex?
I realize one way is to use the ReReplace function in Coldfusion to replace the special formatting characters with blank, but since there might be hundreds of special formatting characters like the in MS-Word, I cannot not know which are the possible special formatting characters which need to be replaced.
P.S. I cannot use the Textarea.text property to remove all formatting since if someone underlines or changes the color of text, that needs to be stored in the tables so that next time the record is retrieved, the underline needs to show below the text

Well, the Internet never fails to surprise me. There is a blogger, Matt Forney, who I can't believe is real. His blog, "Matt Forney: The man who shouted love at the heart of the world," is the nightmare of any self-respecting individual. Although most of his posts frighten me, the one that made me question his sanity was his ideological rant titled, "The Case Against Female Self-Esteem."
Climbing Through the Glass Ceiling
I've always been an adamant feminist, insistent that women and men are always equal, no matter the situation. Humans are individuals, and we can't say that some of us are one way and others, another. It differs. But physical capabilities--sports--is where I draw blank.
Talking about Talking about Race
Thirteen Carls sat in a room Wednesday night and the conversation went something like this:
Hotspot on the Bald Spot?
When it comes to any decision, from the mundane (Burton or LDC today?) to the dire (shall I launch the warheads, Mr. Secretary?), we are faced with an opportunity cost. The CSA is now considering a decision that, while neither mundane nor dire, is a pressing matter both financially and socially for all of us. As thoughtful people, we the people whom the CSA serves must carefully consider the implications of this phrase that could become another part of our lives if we chose so: "Wi-Fi on the Bald Spot."
A Note to the Eds
Firstly, I want to deplore the public officials who allowed the controversy about attacking Syria to break out while our students were on campus, possibly compromising their neutrality by luring them into expressing opinions on an issue of global importance and so, in the long run, harming the planet by withering their career prospects. Obviously by "neutrality" I mean neuteredness.
Secondly, what would Paul Wellstone do?
Finally, I wonder how this issue played/is playing over in St. Olaf's.
A Few Things on Microaggressions
Of course Carleton is a diverse place and a microcosm of America. On the other hand, of course a school with a vocal subculture that celebrates the class politics of Harry Potter has a certain set of handicaps to contend with when it tries to discuss its own diversity.
Mean Girls
While on YouTube the other day, I stumbled across a very disturbing phenomenon; girls posting videos of themselves, asking whether they are pretty or not. It was very upsetting.
Cows, Colleges, and... Concussions?
You could say that some Carls had something of a "nuclear cow" this past weekend at 4th Musser, stemming from what may seem to be an innocuous tradition here: theft of a stuffed cow. And not just any cow. It was the Nolympics prize cow.
New Environmentalism
I did a bad thing.
It came from me receiving a generous fellowship to travel to Armenia for the summer, and it just so happened that my grandparents in Japan wanted to have me come visit as well. Thus followed a blur of airports and bus stations that took me from Denver to Moscow to Yerevan to Tbilisi to Istanbul to Tokyo to Denver. "There and Back Again," someone once said.
Culture Counts
Coming from Kenya, Cuba, India and Norway has not always been easy. Meeting family always meant adapting to new practices and traditions. However cliché it may seem, there was a certain unity in this diversity.
In fact, our only shared characteristic -- a love for cooking -- might have been the most powerful.
Food for Thought?
If I'm right that the local food movement is fueled as much by the positive search for a more authentic mode of living as it is the fear of environmental degradation (and this ought to be disputed, 'cause though I love food, my own cooking skills never really progressed much past blue box pasta so y'all probably know more about this than me), I'd just like to point briefly to one pitfall the local food movement will perhaps be prone to falling in to.
"Real Food:" What it is, Why We Want it, and How We Get More
When it comes to food, a lot of people have the mentality of "it tastes good, I enjoy it, don't ruin it for me by telling me all the problems with it." At least that was how I was for a long time. And while it's hard to face the uncomfortable realities behind our habits, we cannot afford to further distance ourselves from the process that brings food to our plates.

Loading... The Text of the New Testamentby Bruce M. Metzger
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. One of the most important and foundational books for any serious study of New Testament Literature and its transmission and veracity. This is the standard text for textual criticism. Metzger, to this day, has no equal in quality or perspective. This is the standard introduction to the textual criticism in the New Testament. The amount of information in this book is overwhelming. This books gives a cursory overview of the history of the production of books, text criticism, and production of Greek New Testaments. The catalogue of witnesses will also be an asset to have when one is using their GNT. The sample cases of text criticism in the final chapter are interesting as well. If one is looking for a step-by-step guide on how to 'do' text criticism, it is not here. This is simply because it is not so much a science as it is an art. The cases provide an intuitive introduction to the tricky terrain of finding the original text. There was one slight problem I noticed while reading the final chapter. Some of the textual variants for a particular text were nowhere to be located in my UBS4 or NA27. This may probably be because the editors of those respective texts choose not to include those particular variants simply because they are obviously not original. But this can lead someone to question whether the NA27 or UBS4 are sufficient enough for the task that Metzger puts before us. Nonetheless, Metzger book offers not only a good introduction, but also a reference that I shall be turning back to again and again. The 4th Edition is an excellent introduction to the science of New Testament Textual Criticism. It introduces readers to the writing and transmission of ancient texts, the various mss we have in existence, a history of textual criticism, methods of textual criticism, causes of errors in the mss, the history of text transmission, and practice of textual criticism. The only contention I have is Bart Ehrman's work on the book. Ehrman is hardly an objective scholar. While I do not have the third edition to compare with, I serously doubt the work is better than it would be if Ehrman did not work on it. An excellent book for any student interested in the history of early New Testament manuscript. Metzger and Ehrman provide priceless research and information in regards to the history and importance of Greek New Testament transmission. They provide very interesting insight into the formation of the text and how it varies between manuscripts. A must read for any New Testament Student. This book is a good primer for anyone wanting to learn about the relative accuracy of the original Greek New Testament text. There's a lot crammed into its almost 300 pages. Even if you don't have much Greek, most of what is here is explained and translated. (A good book to read after this one is Bart Ehrman's The Orthodox Corruption of Scripture: The Effect of Early Christological Controversies on the Text of the New Testament. If you do, you'll see what the "textual criticism" explained in Metzger's book looks like in use.) no reviews | add a review
References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in English (40)Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 019516122X, Paperback)This thoroughly revised edition of Bruce M. Metzger's classic work is the most up-to-date manual available for the textual criticism of the New Testament. The Text of the New Testament, Fourth Edition, has been invigorated by the addition of Bart D. Ehrman--author of numerous best-selling books on the New Testament--as a coauthor. This revision brings the discussion of such important matters as the early Greek manuscripts and methods of textual criticism up to date, integrating recent research findings and approaches into the body of the text (as opposed to previous revisions, which compiled new material and notes into appendices). The authors also examine new areas of interest, including the use of computers in the collection and evaluation of manuscript evidence and the effects that social and ideological influences had upon the work of scribes. The standard text for courses in biblical studies and the history of Christianity since its first publication in 1964, The Text of the New Testament is poised to become a definitive resource for a whole new generation of students.(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:41:58 -0400) No library descriptions found. |

Ex-DePaul basketball player Curtis Watkins dies | |
Written by Admin |
Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:58 |
CHICAGO (AP) -Curtis Watkins, a member of DePaul's 1979 Final Four basketball team, has died. He was 51. Watkins died Monday night, the school said. His daughter, Monique, told the Chicago Sun-Times that he died of a blocked artery at his home in the Chicago suburb of Harvey. Former coach Joey Meyer, then an assistant on father Ray Meyer's staff, called Watkins the secret weapon on a Final Four team that featured Mark Aguirre and Clyde Bradshaw. Watkins scored 24 points in DePaul's win over UCLA that sent the Blue Demons to the Final Four. Indiana State, which featured Larry Bird, defeated DePaul in the semifinal game. Watkins ranks 10th on the school's all-time scoring list and ninth in rebounds. Meyer called Watkins a coach's dream because of his ability to score and play defense. |

Salvia condo description
There is room for 7 people in each condo. The rate starts for 1-2 people. See rate schedule
I have two penthouse condos facing the beach of the Caribbean not the lagoon.
They are not hotel rooms. They are Full size condos with full kitchens, living room areas and balconies facing the ocean.
Each can be rented as a single unit for 1 to 7 people, or as two adjoining condos for up to 14 people. and they can be rented by the night, the week, the month, or longer if available.
They are ideally located in the center of the hotel zone at the point, called Punta Cancun, where you have restaurants, entertainment, the center of the Hotel Zone Fun Zone. Walk to many interesting clubs and night spots. Get tours to all the fascinating locations throughout the Mayan Yucatan Peninsula.
From the terrace you can look directly at the Caribbean, watch the sun rise over the water, and view directly the ocean's allure.
There are 2 units with 2 queen size beds upstairs in PH3A and PH3B and a bathroom , and one king size bed downstairs in PH3B, 3 beds. And sleeping in a sofa sleeper and futons in both. In both condos there are 2 bedrooms, a balcony, overlooking the ocean, a kitchen with bar and tv area and 2 bathrooms.
The Beach is within a few steps.: The water is inviting and pleasant, warm year round. The sand is powdery and soft. The point has snorkeling along the protective rocks. Mexico has only public beaches here so cruise the coastline without restriction and establish a new beach head every day. Wake up early or stay up till dawn and watch the sun rise out of the ocean from the balcony or from the water edge camera in hand.
Within walking distance are a Hard Rock cafe, Hooters, Carlos and Charlies, Chilis, Argentinian steak house, lobster restaurant on the beach, Mexican restaurants, even a McDonald's, etc.,
Nearby Shopping centers, Caracol and The Forum, the Coral Beach Flea market, and Señor Frogs, Mexican restaurants, convenience stores, shops and mini markets, and ATM machines for $ or pesos.
Excursions can be booked at the hotel, taxis and buses are available outside the entrance, with trips to the Mayan ruins in Tulum and Chichen Itza, golf at Pok de Pok, and the Hilton, with other golf in the area, snorkeling at Xcaret, Xel-ha , with a ferry at Playa del Carmen to Cozamel. A boat trip to Isla Mujeres to see the sleeping sharks!
Want to go shopping?: Stroll down the Boulevard Kukulcan to various shops for gifts and remembrances, jewelery, and souvenirs. Take a moment to walk to the Caracol shopping area, stopping for a beverage or bite to eat at the outside restaurants. This multi-level shopping center has many shops with clothes and jewelry and trinkets of Cancun to remember your visit. There are ATMs and banking facilities here.
Would you like some pampering?: Book an appointment at the spa with Rosie at Salvia for a wonderful massage, have a facial, or get your toenails refreshed. If you forgot to get you hair trimmed you can do that too.

We stayed at this condo for a a week. When we first started looking for a condo we really like the pictures Ron has posted. I contacted Ron via email and phone and he aswered promptly. My husband and I were kind of worry since this was the first time using vrbo and did not what to expect. Ron made us feel comfortable answered all the question we had about the condo. Not to mention the price for the condo it was affordable!!! and and apacious. My daughter loved it since she had the uptairs bedroom to herself. We slept with the balcony open and listen to the waves rellaxing!!! ,the balcony view spectacular. We would definately stay there again. thank you RonRecommended for: Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, girls getaway, tourists without a car, age 55+.

This was a very relaxing place to spend our vacation. We enjoyed the easy access to the beach. The rooms a very clean the maid service is great. We felt safe because there was always a smiling face at the desk to great us. We could open the window and enjoy the sounds of the beach.

I stayed at the property for 5 days in Aug 2013. The location and view of this property are great. It's right next to Hard Rock cafe and across street from Fat Tuesday bar. However, the building is not well kept. There were tons of ants running around in the kitchen and mosquitos in the lobby. Make sure the owner disclose all the rules and restrictions before you consider renting it. Once the payment is made, you can't back out for any reasons. I was taken by suprise when I was handed a list of restrictions upon checking-in. For instance, you are not allowed to bring any unregisted guests to your room or have glass bottles in the room. The owner will be sitting in the lobby everyday like a night owl to make sure that only registered people going into his properties. Additional guests will be charged per day even though the occupants are well below its room capacity. There's also additional fee/day for wifi usage.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+.
Owner response: This particular renter was upset because I wouldn't allow an additional guest to stay for free. I gave him a fantastic rate for his three people. When he showed with a fourth it was explained to him that there is a charge for an additional person of $10 per person per night. This is to cover extra towel use, sheet use, water use, and electrical use. This guest said to me that he had no problems like this staying at the towers. I suggested he book A condo there by himself and then bring his 3 guests there for free. I never got a response to that. There are tiny little ants everywhere in Cancun. We have a exterminator and at any time some are noted they spray here for them. Anyone being sloppy with there food will encounter these tiny ants. We clean our rooms with our own maid service and welcome any comments. Please note that others have remarked about how clean our building is, not just my condos there. I don't stand guard out in the lobby watching for unwanted guests, we have a secure building with 24 hour security and a bracelet system. This guest might have thought that another owner who lives there full time might have been me. I spend a few minutes at the condos during check out and check in of guests to make sure everything is ok. I ask our front desk people about any complaints. There were none from this guest. This person after getting a very good deal from me tried to bring in an extra guest. That is not allowed in any rental situation I am aware of. He was not happy about that, its part of the policy. I ask in my confirmation letter to be informed if there will be any additional guests, this person conveniently FORGOT his confirmation letter. This is what was handed to him a Copy that was sent to him. If I had the space I would send the full confirmation letter. It is not about rules and regulations but about Info. CONFIRMATION LETTER 9/23/13 Dear Vacationer. This is your confirmation letter. Please print it. You will be on the registrar, just as a precaution . Thank you. Location of the building is 9 km Kukulcan Blvd Cancun Mexico the hotel zone. Tell your shuttle or taxi driver it is the Salvia Condominiums. An excerpt from this letter Please advise if this number has changed. Adding extra people after this confirmation is ok. The condo will sleep 7 adults, however due to additional costs there is a $10 per person per night additional charge needed. Not the full letter Thank you Ron

There were 7 of us (ages 24-27) vacationing and we stayed in PH3A. It met our expectations and the location was great. We wanted a place affordable, clean and easy access to the beach. This condo has all of those! Ron was great to work with and communication with him was always prompt. The condo staff was friendly and very helpful as well. 3 people did sleep out in the living room each night on their own separate futons and extra bedding was provided. The air worked great-which was much needed in June! The only negatives I could point out were minimal water pressure in upstairs shower and a few ants on living room floor (which were not problematic). We would definitely stay here again!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, girls getaway, tourists without a car.

We stayed in PH3b for two weekends travelling to a friends wedding in Belize in between. I can only say good things about the accommodation. Location wise you wont get better. Night life is literally outside the door. The beach is a step away. The staff were very helpful and friendly. I hope to return to Cancun in the future and I will definitely stay here if its available.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 3/3

This really is an incredible condo to stay in... We stayed in PH3A and the rooftop balcony is the ONLY one in the building. Incredible starry nights and sunny days. Hard to believe that you are mere steps away from the hottest night life in Cancun and yet facing the sea, the party noise hardly ever comes into your apartment. We stayed at the end of hurricane season so there were not a lot of tourists yet and work was continuing on fixing up the beach from storms and wave action. We had a car rental and finding the condo and parking was not a problem at all. very friendly and courteous staff. Coming to Cancun after two weeks in Mexico City, the zona hotelera was a little too touristy for us so we spent a lot of time in downtown Cancun instead, preferring restaurants like La Parilla to the Carlos and Charlies etc. of the hotel zone. Thanks so much for this condo rental Ron... we had a blast and definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for decent accomodation in a great area of Cancun...particularly for those who prefer to arrange their own meals and activities.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, sightseeing, age 55+.

Me, my husband and my one year old boy stayed here and had a great time. Checking in was a breeze. When we got there we were greeted with a smile. Actually plenty of smiles from day one till we checked out. The unit is very spacious and very clean. The beach is just a few feet away. And even if the condo was right next to the clubs it was very quiet there. We had never felt so safe. Ron was very accommodating. It was very easy to communicate with him. He helped us in many ways like recommending a guy who does tours. Thanks Ron!! You made our trip enjoyable!!!Owner response: Thanks so much for staying here. We enjoy our visitors having a good time, that is what vacations are for! We have a good location and welcome guests such as yourselves. Thank you so much Ron

We stayed here again and all I wrote in the previous review is still very much true. We absolutely love this place and the owner is very nice and helpful. The beach was fantastic. We walked quite a way down the beach and by far the area in front of the Salvia was the best that we saw. The staff was just as wonderful as ever. We highly recommend the Salvia, and this unit in particular (PH3A with the rooftop terrace). A friend came with us for his first trip to Cancun and is already trying to figure out how soon he can get back there! Sunrises over the ocean, sunsets over the lagoon, warm water, soft breeze, great massages from a very, very nice woman on sight. We're already having withdrawals! Enjoy!

This review is long overdue, our apologies to the owner for taking so long! We stayed in PH3A for 2 weeks around Christmas 2008, and have booked it again for another 2 weeks. The owner is so nice and helpful, the condo unit is absolutely fantastic, the location and view are great, the staff is wonderful. This condo will always be our "go to" condo for our Cancun trips. With a teenage girl, it was wonderful having 2 bathrooms instead of 1! The private terrace off the upstairs bedroom is the only one in the building and was perfect. Totally private, nobody can see you, wonderful for relaxing and soaking up the sun or looking at the stars since it's not covered. Plus there is a covered balcony on the first floor of the unit. Very clean unit, comfortable furniture, comfortable beds (first time we've both slept on a bed away from home and didn't wake up with back aches), well supplied kitchen. Anyone concerned about noise issues when staying in an area surrounded by the clubs need have no worry - you can't hear the music from inside the unit or even when on the balcony or terrace. We were able to sleep with the terrace door open and hear nothing but the soothing sound of the ocean. Very convenient location to shopping and lots of restaurants, and wonderful, cheap food and the little condo restaurant. We met a lot of nice people staying in the condo - other vacationers as well as owners who permanently live there. But even though we've gone 3 times during one of the "high seasons" (Christmas), we've never found the Cancun area to be crowded. We've seen the timeshares and many of the hotels during this season and many of them have been extremely crowded around their pools and in the lobbies, but not the condos we've stayed in. If you want privacy and great service, and prefer variety and freedom instead of being stuck at a crowded all-inclusive hotel, we highly recommend this condo.

"Innovation will always beat the economy, " Allergan chairman, president & CEO David Pyott tells attendees of MassDevice's 2012 Big 100 Roundtable West in Newport Beach, Calif.
One of the most important things Allergan chairman, president & CEO David Pyott learned in business school was to cast a wary eye on business leaders who blame economic downturns for business declines.
Before last night's audience of medical device industry players from around the country, Pyott explained why he believes that most companies should be able to overcome economic headwinds with innovative thinking.
"When management talks about the economy, it's actually an excuse," Pyott told MassDevice.com publisher Brian Johnson at last night's MassDevice Big 100 Roundtable West event in Newport Beach, Calif. "How often, when things are going really well in the economy, do managers say 'My sales are up 20% - because of the economy'?"
Economic swings may play more of a role in companies the size of GE Healthcare (NYSE:GE), Pyott admitted, but for mid-size companies, such as Allergan, it's becomes something of a crutch.
As the key guest at the Big 100 event, Pyott spoke on-stage about his nearly 15 years at Allergan, during which time he grew the company from an eye-care firm to a $5 billion global concern spanning medical devices as well as pharmaceuticals.
He discussed his company's decision to move away from its Lap-Band business, laughed about what drives him as a veteran executive in the medtech field and lamented qualities of the U.S. insurance arena that makes it difficult to penetrate the market with important new products, but he made 1 thing particularly clear: there's always room for innovation.

Fondest memory: With a population of 3,5 mill. people, Lusaka is considered to be one of the fastest growing cities in Africa. It's a city with both gravel roads and bitumen roads, dilapidated houses with flat corrugated roof and modern concrete buildings. The pavements are in use for street sellers.
Favorite thing:
This town is really confusing... The 2nd city in the world where I've managed to get lost (the 1st was New York). Go&visit the university!!!
Fondest memory:
I found really great friends in Lusaka&in Zambia in general, they treated me like a member of their family.
And the food...
Fondest memory: Lusaka is the capital and the largest city in Zambia. The population is 3,5 mill. people. But it is a city of low buildings. The exception is some few buildings around Cairo road in downtown.
Fondest memory: Most of the banks and many money change offices can be found along Cairo Road. The exchange rate was slightly lower than the rate in Livingstone. 1 USD was 4700 Kwacha (August 2009).

Headed to Machu Picchu in late April and trying to finalized hotels. We are staying at Tambo del Inka on Starwood points for 2 nights before heading to AC. I have been looking at hotels in AC and can't find any good options with availability. Inkaterra and El Mapi, along with most comparable hotels are booked. So... is it worth it to actually stay in AC, or should I just take another "free" night at Tambo del Inka and make MP a day trip?
Traveling with my 70 year old father, not planning on climbing Huayna Picchu and neither of feel the necessity to see the sunrise. Would we be missing out by not spending a night in Aquas Calientes?
Sacred Valley/ AC hotel advice

AC is not an attractive town and if you are interested more in comfort for you and your father rather than seeing the sunrise, we were warned beforehand by the owner of Hearts Cafe in Ollantaytambo where we were doing some voluntary work, that AC was the food poisoning capital of the SV and indeed this proved to be the case for me as I was really ill on the day we visited MP. Perhaps I am biased but on balance I would make it a day trip.
Report Abuse
They have spiffed up Aguas Calientes a bit since your visit, crellston, after the big floods a lot of the towns in the SV have new paved streets in the center (no longer the sewer-like stream). Still the town itself is no reason to spend the night.
Since you are not planning on climbing HP I also would make it a day trip, but I'd try to get an early train from Ollantaytambo so you can be at MP when the site is less crowded. -
Report Abuse
I didn't climb Huaya Picchu or hike either. But I was glad to spend the night in Aguas Calientes. We stayed at The Sumaq. Given what you described - i.e. having a free hotel, and as long as you don't care about getting to MP early - a day trip sounds like the way to go.

Sigi Schmid fumes at Portland's tough-tackling as Seattle's Clint Dempsey dislocates shoulder
Oct 14, 2013, 9:35 AM EST
On Sunday night at JELD-WEN Field, robust tackles and last-ditch defending was the name of the game, as Portland ground out a crucial 1-0 win over Cascadia rivals Seattle in a rambunctious affair in PDX.
And that's putting it mildly.
From the first whistle Seattle and Portland went at it, big time, and that commitment boiled over into several over zealous challenges, one of which saw Timbers midfielder Diego Chara take out Clint Dempsey in the 19th minute. The USMNT captain hit the ground hard, with his left shoulder taking the bulk of the impact. Initially Dempsey dislocated the joint, but after getting it strapped up and playing on for 77 bruising minutes, the official diagnosis is a sprain on his AC joint.
(MORE: Alhassan goal, 'let them play' officiating defines ugly Portland-Seattle derby- Video)
Sounders head coach Sigi Schmid was not a happy man speaking to reporters after the game.
"He tried to play on, play through it and Chará commits four fouls in the first half and never gets carded," Schmid said. "I think that's a key turning point in the game. You look at the times Dempsey got fouled, that crap has got to stop. The referee has to protect him and they don't. It doesn't matter if a foul is early in the game or late in the game."
He has a point.
Referee Hilario Grajeda let the game flow, but the fact that he didn't call out plenty of hefty challenges lead to discrepancies escalating throughout the clash, which eventually led to Osvaldo Alonso sent off for a straight red card for elbowing Will Johnson in the face. That was a deserved red card, as the famous red mist descended on Alonso in the heat of the battle. And what a battle it was. Alonso will now face a lengthy suspension, while despite all his passion, Adam Moffat failed to get things going in Seattle's engine room. The Timbers definitely won the battle in midfield.
Despite the Timbers prevailing, a draw was probably a fair result after the Sounders twice hit the crossbar through Dempsey and Steve Zakuani. Yet with Dempsey nursing yet another injury and possibly adding his name to Seattle's long-list of absentees, the Sounders are limping towards the playoffs with a banged up squad and Sigi Schmid all fired up.
Expect more fiery affairs like Sunday nights clash in the postseason, Portland proved they have grinders like Johnson and Chara to win the battle and rattle the opponents. Can Seattle dig deep to grind out wins? Or will we hear more complaints from Schmid in yet another postseason collapse?

Golf in Maryland Loses Paul Gehring, An Exemplary Servant of the Game
On February 25, 2007, Paul B. Gehring of Rising Sun, MD passed away at age 82. Paul died of complications from a fall that occurred about one month earlier. He is survived by his wife Frances and son David. Paul Gehring turned golf professional as an assistant to Johnny Bass, PGA, at Pine Ridge Golf Club, and then worked for Joe Vaeth, who was the head PGA Professional at Clifton Park Golf Club. Shortly after his election to PGA membership in 1968, Paul became the Head PGA Professional at Chantilly Manor Country Club in Rising Sun, the club at which he served until his retirement in 1988. Paul was a Life Member of the PGA of America and an Honorary Life Member of Chesapeake Bay Golf Club – Rising Sun. Tom Brown, the distinguished golf course superintendent at Chesapeake Bay Golf Club (formerly Chantilly Manor Country Club), recently remarked: "Paul Gehring was a great credit to the PGA of America." Paul was well-liked by all who knew him and truly represented the idea of golf as game of honor and respect for tradition. Paul served in the U.S. Navy and was a World War II veteran. He was a member of the Good Shepherd Church, Perryville, MD, and a member of the Rising Sun American Legion Post No. 194. Memorial Contributions may be made to the Good Shepherd Church, c/o Lee A. Patterson & Son Funeral Home, P.O. Box 766, Perryville, MD 21903-0766. Condolence cards may be sent to Mrs. Frances Gehring, 48 Lake Drive, Rising Sun, MD 21911.

E!, Comcast, Joel McHale Sued for Mocking Dwarf Couple
Cara and Gibson Reynolds are seeking $50,000 in compensatory and punitive damages after "The Soup" spoofed them on air.
COLLINGSWOOD, N.J. -- A dwarf couple from southern New Jersey has filed a defamation lawsuit against a cable television channel that used a doctored photo of the pair to spoof reality television shows.
Cara and Gibson Reynolds say the sketch – which aired in 2009 on E! Entertainment Channel's The Soup – caused them much emotional distress. The Collingswood couple – who are achondroplastic dwarfs – seek more than $50,000 in compensatory and punitive damages in the suit filed in Philadelphia Common Pleas court.
The show used a photo of the couple holding hands on their front porch. It was taken by a photographer for The Associated Press for a 2006 story on couples who have genetic conditions and are trying to conceive.
In the sketch, the show superimposed tattooed babies in pageant sashes and lingerie supermodels on the photo to illustrate a fake reality show it called "Fertile Little Tattooed Pageant Parents Who Enjoy Baking."
Besides the cable channel, the suit also names Comcast – which owns E! – and The Soup host Joel McHale.
Telephone messages left Wednesday for Comcast, the Reynolds and their lawyer were not immediately returned.

Clonezilla is a partition or disk cloning tool similar to Symantec Ghost. It saves and restores only blocks in use on the hard drive if the file system is supported. For unsupported file systems, dd is used instead. It has been used to clone a 5 GB system to 40 clients in about 10 minutes.
libburnia is a project comprised of libraries and binaries for reading, mastering, and writing optical discs. It provides libburn, a CD/DVD/BD burn library, libisofs, a manipulation library for ISO 9660 filesystems, and libisoburn, a ISO 9660 multi-session library. On top of them there is cdrskin, a cdrecord emulator, and xorriso, a all-in-one application for ISO 9660 multi-session operations which additionaly provides a limited emulation of mkisofs.
storeBackup is a backup utility that stores files on other disks. It's able to compress data, and recognize copying and moving of files and directories (deduplication), and unifies the advantages of traditional full and incremental backups. It can handle big image files with block-wise changes efficiently. Depending on its contents, every file is stored only once on disk. Tools for analyzing backup data and restoring are provided. Once archived, files are accessible by mounting file systems (locally, or via Samba or NFS). It is easy to install and configure. Additional features are backup consistency checking, offline backups, and replication of backups.
Areca is a file backup system that supports data compression (zip / zip64 format) and encryption, incremental backups, FTP/SFTP file transfer, delta storage mode, and many other features. It includes a transaction mechanism, which guarantees the integrity of your backups. Two user interfaces are available: a command-line interface (useful for backup automation) and a graphical user interface (useful for backup administration).
Attic is a deduplicating backup program. The main goal of attic is to provide an efficient and secure way to back up data. The data deduplication technique used makes Attic suitable for daily backups since only actual changes are stored. Main features: space efficient storage, optional data encryption, and off-site backups.
LRZIP is a compression program and library that can achieve very high compression ratios and speed when used with large files using unlimited sized compression windows. It uses the combined compression algorithms of zpaq and lzma for maximum compression, lzo for maximum speed, and the long range redundancy reduction of rzip. It is designed to scale with increases with RAM size, improving compression further. A choice of either size or speed optimizations allows for either better compression than even lzma can provide, or better speed than gzip, but with bzip2 sized compression levels. It also has high grade password protected encryption and full STDIN/STDOUT support.
Spack is a standalone package manager with its own CPIO-based package format but aiming to keep total compatibility with Slackware Linux. Written in POSIX shell as much as it makes sense, it attempts to provide a fairly complete toolkit to build, install, remove, list, retrieve, and arrange your packages. It can be used as an alternative to Slackware's pkgtools, just to independently and properly manage your local software on any distribution, or as the main package manager of the distribution you build yourself.
Dar is a shell command that makes backup of a directory tree and files. Its features include splitting archives over several files, DVD, CD, ZIP, or floppies, compression, full or differential backups, strong encryption, proper saving and restoration of hard links, extended attributes, file forks, Door inodes, and sparse files, remote backup using pipes and external commands (such as ssh), and rearrangement of the "slices" of an existing archive. It can run commands between slices, before and after saving some defined files or directories (for a proper database backup, for example), and quickly retrieve individual files from differential and full backups. Several external GUIs exist as alternatives to its CLI interface, like kdar, DarGUI, SaraB, etc.

After the thousands of downed branches that littered Westford after the October blizzard, it only seemed fitting that storm would indirectly serve to build a soapbox.
All eyes were on the Westford School Committee and their decision on what to do regarding five early lost days of school from Hurricane Irene and the Snowtober storm, but those eyes were quickly averted when approximately two to three Westford educators in green t-shirts showed up outside.
The Westford Education Association (WEA), the union for most of the staff in the Westford School District, came to the meeting in the hopes of borrowing the spotlight cast on the snow day decision for their own ongoing negotiations.
With the first mediation meeting between the WEA and the town looming on November 30, the WEA members hoped to make the meeting a reminder to the public about the looming meeting and the fact that Westford's teachers have been working without a contractual agreement since the school year began.
"We've been talking about different places to get the news out to the public," said Westford Education Association president Ruth Freeman. "(the School Committee) haven't changed their offer or their discussion or their stance since we started, and personally I think that's a mandate from Town Hall."
Although the WEA had engaged in a similar rally on the Common earlier in the day, the appearance on this night was certainly a surprise.
Contact between members of the WEA and the School Committee outside the and during the open forum portion of the Committee's meeting was cordial.
"I'm sure that everybody cares about what's in the best interests of school children of Westford," said School Committee chairman Angela Harkness. "And that's a common goal that we can all work on, to reach a conclusion that will help everybody."
Ironically enough, the buzz that accompanied the WEA members at the beginning of the meeting had long since subsided three hours later when the decision on making up the school days came to its conclusion.
Although none of the five options presented in a poll by the School District to Westford's parents, students and teachers (which was duplicated for the public at large by ) were particularly satisfying for Superintendent Bill Olsen or members of the Committee, Olsen was firm in his belief that the decision had to be made now before more possible snow days pushed the school year further into portions of June he considered nonconductive to learning.
"I don't believe that doing nothing is an option," he said, noting that he had never seen five snow days prior to the beginning of winter during his 25 years as superintendent before this year.
School Committee member Erika Kohl made a motion to approve Olsen's proposal of taking the two days out of February and April Vacation, which was quickly opposed by Judith Culver, who preferred instead making up the days on Saturdays.
Olsen recommended against the Saturday plan due to what he found was a large number of side jobs for educators and older students on Saturdays, as well as religious concerns due to the day being the Jewish Sabbath.
The superintendent also recommended against cancelling February Vacation altogether, an approach championed by Arthur Benoit, following research from other Massachusetts superintendents who reported to Olsen that absenteeism increased dramatically during cancelled vacations, and that respondents to the polls were not in favor of that plan.
Ultimately, Olsen recommended that the two days be Tuesdays and Wednesdays since the district could not legally force children to school on Patriots' Day, which is scheduled for the first day of April Vacation.
The motion to make up four of the five snow days currently lost so far on those Tuesdays and Wednesdays was approved by the Committee 4-2-1, with Benoit and Culver opposing and David Keele absent.

State Superintendent Tony Evers Visits Abbotsford

-State Superintendent Tony Evers paid a visit to the Abbotsford Public Library on Thursday of last week.
Mr. Evers was in the area to celebrate a couple events in Bloomer and Marathon and he said he always takes time to stop at small town libraries.
Erica Grunseth, librarian at Abbotsford, gave a tour to the State Superintendent and he was very impressed with the large and beautiful facility.
Mr. Evers talked about some of the problems many of our small town schools face.
"Most of the problems, I'd say, revolve around school finance. Clearly, we have good teachers in this part of the state and good administrators, but school funding tends to work against small town school districts and its been difficult the last couple budgets with the state to convince them the value of funding the system. Its been difficult and unfair for the smaller schools."
Mr. Evers also believes that more of a focus on technical degrees is something small town schools should do.
"We need to make sure that we don't send a message to our kids, 'if you don't go to a four year college and graduate you're a failure. That seems to be the national message of the last decade. What I'm encouraging districts to do, and I know they do it well in this part of the state and other areas, is to really work with the technical colleges and make sure that every student has an opportunity to take a duel enrollment course to get high school and technical school credits at the same time."
Mr. Evers also said hes opposed to the voucher system.
"I've had a chance to watch the Milwaukee voucher program for twenty years. The achievement level of those children on the voucher program vs. Milwaukee; there's virtually know difference. In fact, in many cases, there's less achievement. I don't think there are any real rational, educational reason to expand the vouchers. I also oppose it because there's only so much money going to public schools and when it's not going to Abbotsford and it's going to the voucher school instead, that's a problem. Especially, when it's not a proven best practice."
Mr. Evers also mentioned his support for common core.
