Risk assessment
Growth expected to recover slightly in 2013
Activity slowed due to the downturn in exports and investment in the wake of the Eurozone crisis in 2012. Growth is expected to pick up again slightly in 2013, with investment likely to post good performances, especially in electronics and automotives due to high use of production capacity and monetary policy easing that started in July 2012. Nonetheless, construction is likely to continue to slow, with SMEs in the sector being especially weak. Private consumption, the main growth driver, will benefit from higher wages, which will buoy retail sales. Households will, however, remain significantly indebted (at 135% of their disposable income). Exports – which represent nearly 50% of GDP – are expected to slow only slightly due to vigorous activity expected in China, South Korea's main trading partner and the high added value of goods resulted from the huge investments in research and development. Nevertheless, the structure of South Korea's economy will continue to be a two-speed one, with dynamic industrial conglomerates - the chaebols – co-existing with a low-productivity service sector. Moreover, there are still important issues in terms of corruption and the transparency of the chaebols, characterised by family control and hereditary succession.
Solid financial position
As to public finances, the fiscal surplus is expected to grow in 2013 due to the maintenance of a neutral fiscal policy, which will keep public debt at sustainable levels. However, borrowing by state-owned enterprises needs watching as the aggregated debt of the country's seven largest companies represents 25% of GDP. But despite this high ratio, the state-owned enterprises still posted satisfactory profitability and capitalisation ratios in 2012. As for the external accounts, the current account surplus narrowed in 2012 due to the recession in the euro zone, weak growth in the U.S. and the slowdown in China. This is likely to narrow only slightly in 2013, as the deceleration of exports to the eurozone will be offset by increased sales to the dynamic emerging countries of Asia, especially China. In this context, foreign exchange reserves will remain at satisfactory levels, making the country able to withstand sudden capital flight.
Portfolio investment flows were highly volatile in 2012, pushing the authorities to strengthen capital controls. Besides macro-prudential regulations aimed at limiting risk-taking by South Korean banks tempted to engage in short-term borrowing on international markets (to invest massively in the won futures market), the authorities have introduced a tax on foreign investments in the local bond market.
The banking sector was affected by deposit runs from twenty mutual savings banks exposed to the construction sector in 2012. The authorities responded by suspending the operations of these banks and protecting deposits. They then created a defeasance structure to restructure the non-performing loans. Moreover, South Korea's banks are still highly exposed to foreign currency funding. However, the systemic banking risk remains contained, as shown by the satisfactory capitalisation ratio (14%), low levels of non-performing loans and the reduction in the banks' short-term external debt. However, the quality of loans granted to SMEs, which represent 45% of the banks' portfolios, needs watching.
Risks of heightened tension with North Korea
After the artillery attack by North Korea on the South Korean island of Yeonpyeong in November 2010, disputes worsened sharply in the Korean peninsula. In addition, Kim Jong-il's death in December 2011 and the coming to office of his son Kim Jong-un have opened up an uncertain transition period. Against this backdrop, tensions could remain intense in 2013. Resumption of the six-nation negotiations on North Korea's nuclear programme seems highly unlikely.
Despite gains made by the Democratic Party in the April 2012 legislative elections, the ruling Saenuri Party held on to its parliamentary majority. Meanwhile, the December 2012 presidential elections were won by Park Geun-hye, former president of the Saenuri Party and daughter of the putschist general who seized power in 1961. She will, however, have to contend with internal divisions within the party, especially with conservatives hostile to large-scale reforms. Nonetheless, the continuity and consistency of economic policies should be assured.

A group of us went for a friends leaving do. At first it was average, as you pull in you see the national track which gets the heart racing, your then shown what looks like an entrance road..

Held a(charity) corporate vent day here for around 70 people. Weather was fantastic which always helps. the whole day was very well organised from the point of view of the activities - go karting, quad bikes, off-road buggies and clay pigeon shooting. Of specila mention has to be the quad bike instructors and the clay pigeon guys - very helpful,... More
Good points: Track. Good challenging circuits Concerning points: Karts. Mine was ok but there were several karts that broke with wheels following off) Bad points: Staff were lazy, time wasting, and some that were rude following some of the karts breaking down and listening to customer feedback. Experience was a bit flat. No lap time sheets were available to take... More
The track itself is good. The rest is frankly awful. We were in teams of four out of around 10 teams. We were given a kart with a bent stub axle and an engine with about 0.05bhp. Our lap times were 7 seconds slower than usual. After paying, the staff could frankly not care less. We had to steer the... More
A fast flowing circuit with decent facilities. Track produces some great racing and karts are decent. New fleet next year will be great and will only enhance the event you have there
This place is awful, the staff are terrible and rude!! Our kart was OBVIOUSLY broken, asked for new kart was refused and was told it was fine. Asked for a refund and was told "You've paid now" so no refund. Asked to see the manager and was refused again. The staff holding grudges against our complaints black flagged us every... More
As owner drivers, we race and test here on monthly basis. It is a really nice, well equipped track with great facilities. (gorgeous chicken wraps). It is also very well organised. The track is set in beautiful countryside and is approximately 20 minutes from junction 16 on the M1.
24 close races for Karts on the main circuit proves an excellent way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Run by Stars you never know you may be the first to spot a future Formula 1 star for this is the sport they started in with competitors aged 7 to 60+. Looking around the paddock makes you realise how far this... More
Had a groupon voucher with friends. Whilton Mill were very accommodating and let us upgrade to race on the main circuit. Would recommend this venue to anyone. The track is challenging and extremely fast.

Rating 5.0 of 5:
I ordered these in black, EEE, for my husband because he has swollen feet. They worked great. All of his other shoes are too tight now. He is disabled and in a wheelchair. I want to get the brown ones, but they are out of them. They have tan ones, but no picture. So, I don't want to order a color I can't see.

"A work of art seems to be a hardier breed; it can be sold in the market and still emerge a work of art. But if it is true that in the essential commerce of art a gift is carried by the work from the artist to his audience, if I am right to say that where there is no gift there is no art, then it may be possible to destroy a work of art by converting it into a pure commodity. I don't maintain that art can't be bought and sold, but that the gift portion of the work places a constraint upon our merchandising."

Clamming at two area beaches will open late, in part to protect overharvesting.
The opening of the sport clam and oyster season at Oyster Reserves of North Bay on Case Inlet has been delayed to April 1. The area will be open to digging for all clams and oysters through Sept. 15.
This beach has been open year-round in the past, but recreational effort has increased significantly in recent years, said a news release from the state Department of Fish and Wildlife. The state's clam share was overharvested in 2012, requiring a shorter season in 2013. The oyster season on this beach coincides with the clam season.
The beach is located in Mason County near the town of Victor.
Meanwhile, the agency has shortened the sport clam season at Belfair State Park. Digging for all clams will be open April 1-30.
Recreational clamming effort at the beach increased significantly in 2012 and the state's clam share was overharvested, requiring a shorter season in 2013, said a news release. A clam survey on the newly health-certified portion of this beach will be conducted in March, and a possible season extension may follow, depending on the results of that survey. Oyster season will remain open year-round, including the newly health-certified area.
The park beach is located in Mason County on Hood Canal.

Roxy Pier Shoe 3 3
GREAT SHOE! this shoe is soo comfortable! I wear them all the time, everywhere i go! They can be worn with just about any casual outfit. Have even worn them with a dress before. Lots of compliments. May 23, 2012
comfy casual super cute, comfy, easy and true to size - I love that I can throw these on with shorts, lounge pants or jeans and they complete each outfit well! A great wardrobe staple. February 17, 2012
Great flatts I love these shoes they are more summer or spring shoes though because they dont keep your feet very warm even with socks. I went outside and my toes were numb after about an hour or so. But they look great and are great with jeans or shorts. I got one size smaller then what I normally do because flatts tend to not hug your feet good and flop off. They fit great. January 13, 2012

- Description
Astravar 2.0™ Is Designed To:- Boost Nitric Oxide Via Two Pathways*
- Improve Supplement Absorption*
- Increase Endurance*
- Elevate Energy Levels*
- Enhance Recovery*
- Red Beet Root: is naturally high in nitrates (NO3), which are believed to improve athletic performance. Nitrates are helpful to athletes because they quickly bring oxygen to muscles, essentially making the more difficult efforts easier.
- Rhodiola Rosea: research has suggested that Rhodiola rosea can boost mood, increase endurance and time to exhaustion.
- AstraGin™: is an all-natural, plant-derived compound that is extracted from highly fractionated Panax notoginseng and Astragalus membranaceus. Research suggests that AstraGin™ may improve the absorption of various nutrients at the cellular level.
- Bioperine®: helps to increase nutrient absorption. Bioperine works by inhibiting glucuronidation, which is a process that the body uses to make substances more water-soluble.
- Promotes nitric oxide production*
- Supports optimal absorption of performance enhancing ingredients*
- Helps improve muscle glycogen replenishment*
- Help utilize fat as energy source*
- Promotes ATP production*
- Helps increase endurance*
- Helps protect against post-exercise muscle damage*
- Helps boost mood & mental focus*

Nitric Oxide
Nitric Oxide- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
This supplement has been used in connection with the following health conditions:
Used for Amount Why Athletic Performance4 gram three times per day [2 stars] It has been speculated that AAKG may increase production of nitric oxide, a substance known to enhance blood flow. In one study, AAKG improved measures of strength and short-term power performance in weight lifters.Nitric oxide is the popular name for AAKG (arginine alpha-ketoglutarate), a compound made from the amino acid L-arginine and alpha-ketoglutarate, a substance formed in the body's energy-generating process. AAKG is a popular supplement among bodybuilders and other athletes because of claims that it increases production of nitric oxide in muscles. Nitric oxide is known to have blood-flow-enhancing effects,1 which could in theory increase the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to exercising muscle. While L-arginine by itself is known to increase nitric oxide production, no research has been done to show that AAKG does the same. However, double-blind trials of AAKG suggest it improves some measures of strength and power resulting from weight training.2, 3

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) - San Diego State is staying in the Mountain West and backing out on the Big East - just like Boise State did last month.
San Diego State President Elliot Hirshman says the school is pleased to be continuing as a full member of the Mountain West Conference.
San Diego State, a founding member, had committed to join the Big East for football only, with Boise State, starting next season.
But recent defections from the Big East caused Boise State to reconsider and strike a deal to stay in the Mountain West. Without a western partner, San Diego State retreated, too.

Rep. Randy Neugebauer, a Texas Republican who berated a U.S. Park Service ranger at the then-barricaded World War II Memorial during the partial government shutdown, sent a letter of apology to the director of the National Park Service.
Neugebauer's office said he reached out soon after the October 2 incident to get the ranger's contact information to apologize in person, but they did not hear back from the Park Service until this week due to the shutdown.
According to Neugebauer's spokesperson, Heather Vaughan, the Park Service told his office that the ranger requested to stay anonymous and preferred the congressman write a letter to the director of the NPS, rather than call her personally.
In the letter, dated Thursday, October 17, Neugebauer wrote that he was "caught up" in emotion after seeing veterans turned away from the memorial, and "my tone was inappropriate."
"I regret how I handled that situation, and I would like to offer you my apologies," he added.
The letter was hand-delivered on Friday, Vaughan said.
"I'm sorry for the way I spoke, not only because I put the Ranger on duty in an uncomfortable position, but also because my remarks were not an accurate reflection of the regard I have for the Park Service," he wrote.
When Neugebauer confronted the ranger at the memorial on October 2, he said, "How do you look at them...and deny them access? I don't get that."
The ranger responded saying, "It's difficult."
"It should be difficult," he said. "The Park Service should be ashamed of themselves."
She replied saying she was not ashamed.
"Well you should be," he told her.
While the memorial was technically barricaded during the shutdown, groups and individuals were free to enter the site to engage in First Amendment activities, according to National Park Service guidelines.

Vienna, 21 June 2012 – Yesterday afternoon was all about clouds: extreme sportsman Hannes Arch was the star guest at the cloud computing event in Vienna held by ICT services provider and cloud specialist Kapsch. A multiple winner and runner-up of the Red Bull Air Race World Championship, Hannes Arch gave some breath-taking insight into life "above the clouds". Kapsch professionals took a look behind the cloud, demonstrating in exciting keynote speeches just what changes this will mean for corporate IT and how cloud computing solutions can contribute to a flexible and cost-effective IT infrastructure. And participants were able to get to know the outstanding sportsman personally during the subsequent "meet & greet" event.
"Hannes Arch lives an amazing life above the clouds. While not quite as audacious, our cloud computing solutions are no less exciting. According to a study conducted by Gartner, the cloud computing market will grow to USD 150 billion by 2013, and there are no doubts whatsoever that the cloud has already changed the way we work," explained Jochen% Borenich, MBA, COO of Kapsch BusinessCom. "What is more, mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets are constantly creating new challenges for IT specialists. This is where cloud computing can support efficient and secure integration by means of virtualisation and automation."
Exceptional sportsman, high-flyer and cloud specialist In the course of his career, extreme sportsman Hannes Arch has conquered the dizziest of heights in the world, has jumped off the highest cliffs, and he is famous for pulling off audacious aerobatic manoeuvres just a few metres above the ground. An all-round adventurer from Austria, he began his sporting career very early. At only 19 he was already a certified mountain and ski guide, and by the age of 23 he was one of the best mountaineers and climbers in the world. In 2007, Hannes Arch became Austria's first participant in the Red Bull Air Race World Series, becoming World Champion in 2008 followed by two runners-up titles in 2009 and 2010.

The skipper talked about how there will always be doubters and detractors regardless of how the Tigers finish.
DETROIT -- "I've underachieved all year."
That was the answer Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland had after being asked if this year would be a success if the Detroit Tigers do not win the World Series.
"If we're fortunate enough to win this one then we don't win the one next year, then this one will be a fluke," Leyland said. "You just have to remember you can't please everybody. We've done the best we could. Is it going to be good enough? We'll find out.
When asked if that meant he'd be back next season:
"I don't know about that."
The Tigers will play on the road against either San Francisco or St. Louis on Wednesday in Game one of the 2013 World Series.

THE SHREVEPORT TIMES SUNDAY, MAY 2, 1971 \50th Anniversary Physicians to Receive Honors "because I was getting a little old for so much night work." College algebra almost kept Gilmer, descendant of early American settlets, from becoming a physician, a story he tells on himself with a chuckle and .a word of praise for the college official "who helped me out." Explaining that he started out in the Tulane College of Arts and Science, he switched to premedicine "because I couldn't pass college algebra." After passing all of his courses, including chemistry and physics, and after taking several tests for algebra, he still couldn't pass it, "the professor said that I didn't really need the course to become a doctor and he gave me a passing grade." He early became interested in the treatment of tuberculosis and was named medical director of the Pines Sanatorium in 1928. The field of tuberculosis, he observes, "has been revolutionalized. "When I started," he explained, "treatment was rest in bed, fresh air and daily encouragement. And, many recov-ered." Among developments t h r o u g h the years was a procedure whereby the diseased lung was collapsed temporarily and "healed faster." Gilmer was among the first doctors to advocate and use varied new methods he picked up through work with patients or from attendance at medical meetings throughout the nation. "With the advent of drug therapy and antibiotics, the treatment of tuberculosis has become more effective and the c o n v e r s i o n period from positive to negative sputum has been reduced from two to three months. Prior to this, it took months and even years," said the physician who has spent most of his life in the field. At the p r e s e n t time, he added, "surgical treatment has progressed to the point that now diseased portions of the lungs are removed—something un-heard of at the beginning of my career; something thought of as impossible." Calls His Career 'Easy' Gilmer, at 74, the youngest of the three physicians, described his medical career as "easy," explaining that many of his patients came by appointment, "and night calls were rare." He is a charter member of the American College of Chest Physicians, and is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and the International College of Surgeons, and is past president of the Louisiana Thoracic Society. He and his wife, the former Julia Morrow, have one son, Peachy (and the "Peachy," he said, 'is not a nickname, but an old family name) R. Gilmer Jr., a Shreveport pathologist. It was in 1940 that Galloway, who was 77 Friday, went to the old1 Charity Hospital, with the intention of getting additional experience in obstetrics and gynecology, the medical specialty he was most interested in. With only two interruptions since tnen — a stint at Durval Medical Center, Jacksonville, Fla., and with the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospi-tals — he's been at the hospital. During his first administration at old Charity, most of the graduate training programs were set up, and plans were made for the 755-bed Confederate. The new hospital was far different from the original facility, "where I had seen as many as 640 patients crowded in a 300-bed, three floor hospital." The old h o s p i t a l , he said "was outmoded and more or less obsolete, and this motivated us to push for a new building." No Outpatient Areas There were no outpatient facilities at the old building, a service which has grown to as many as 600 visits a day, he said. The graduate training programs— among the first were medicine, obste-trics- gynecology, urology and orthopedic surgery — were started "because there was a backlog of young doctors who expressed a desire for specialty train-ing." Roughneck work in the oil fields of North Louisiana helped finance Gallo-way's medical education. A smile flicked across his face, as he reminesced, that "one of my babies won a baby contest at the State Fair one year," recalling, too, that 'we were close to patients in those days.' " Dr. and Mrs. Galloway, the former Clara Tompkins of Erie, Pa., have four daughters: Mary Elizabeth Morrison of Laurel, Miss.; Clara Jean Brown of Jackson, Miss., and M a r g a r e t Ann McDowell, and Martha Elaine Galloway, both of Shfreveport. Galloway is past president of the Louisiana Hospital Association, and a member of the American College of Hospital Administrators since 1946. Dr. Potts started out in pharmacy but decided "I didn't like it and asked my brother to send me to medical school." When he started practciing medicine, "there were only a few drugs—quinine, coedine, aspirin, morphine and phena-barital, and paregoric?" Much of his practice was in his office and "house calls—there were few people in the hospital." And, too, he recalls the practice of medicine during the depression "when we had very few patients and made very little money." Thousands of new drugs have been placed on the market in the past 50 years, he pointed out. The greatest contributions to medicine, he feels are the discovery of sulphur, penicillin and tetracyline. "These have saved many lives," he said. Serums too, are important contrbu-tons, he feels, addng that "typhod fever and polio have been practically eliminat-ed." Potts has served as many as four generations of one family in Shreveport and attended a wedding one time where guests included1 "25 who had been delivered by me." His hobbies are, "reading, travel and the practice of medicine." Potts and his wife, the f o m e r Welcome Hayhurst of Ottawa, Kan., have one daughter, Carol Ann Engman of Shreveport. Fifty Years Ago these Shrevport physicians received medical degrees. They will be recognized at the annual meeting of the Louisiana Med-ical Society which meets today through Tuesday in Lafayette. They are (left to right) Dr. Peachy R. Gilmer, director of lung therapy and inhalation therapy and lung function tests at Fairfield Hospital; Dr. C. H. Potts, general practitioner, and Dr. Edgar Galloway, director of Confederate Memorial Medical Center. By Margaret Martin Times Medical Writer It was 50 years ago that Shreveport physicians Peacny K. Gilmer, Edgar Galloway and C. H. Potts received their medical degrees. They received $3 for house calls and $2 for office calls and were advised by older physicians, "don't turn down any calls. Answer all of them—no matter who calls or where you have to go." Although the prices were cheap, many things were missing—immunizations, in-fection- fighting drugs and simple cures for tuberculosis. The three doctors—all of whom are still working fulltime—will be honored by the Louisiana Medical Society tomorrow at its meeting in Lafayette for 50 years of service. Missing from the list of Shreveport doctors who will be at the meeting in person to receive recognition from their colleagues is Dr. Harold Quinn, who died earlier this year. Dr. Quinn had also been pratcticing for 50 years. Dr. Galloway and Dr. Gilmer both graduated from Tulane Uinversity Medi-cal School, and Dr. Potts received his medical education at the University of Tennessee. Aside from the MD degrees, there are few similarities between the three men. Galloway, who "by accident" became a hospital administrator in 1941, is director of Confederate Memorial Medi-cal Center. Gilmer, an expert and one of the early workers on tuberculosis treatment, is director of inhalation therapy and lung function studies at Fairfield Hospital. Potts, 75, is a general practitioner, who quit delivering babies 10 years ago

+ I consider this election a win for the people
Dear Editor:
I must comment on your editorial of Nov. 15.
"Liberty lost, Statism (whatever that is) won."
My perception of the national election, which your paper ignores (except in editorial form), is that the following won: women's reproductive rights, separation of church and state, equal rights for minorities (LGBT's); preservation of public broadcasting; Planned Parenthood; FEMA; affordable access to health care (a right rather that a privilege); Medicare as we know and love; and a rational next Supreme Court nominee.

Longboat Key
+ Why not a toll to use Gulf of Mexico Drive?
Dear Editor:
Graham Forbes recently submitted a letter on the high traffic patterns on Gulf of Mexico Drive; the danger created by the excessive speeds on this road for Longboat Key as a retirement community; and the use of GMD by a high percentage of the traffic as a "cut through/short cut" from Sarasota to spots in the Bradenton area. I have been a neighbor of Graham's for several years and completely understand and support his commentary and the need for some solution. I would add that perhaps another solution might be the use of reduced speed limits, at least during the day from 6 a.m. util 6 p.m., or perhaps to impose a "toll" for non-Longboat Key residents not in possession of an appropriate permit for access (similar to the bridge charge imposed by Boca Grande for access to the island). I am suggesting to create a hassle factor to use GMD and thereby reduce the daily traffic from cut-through and truck traffic and to ideally make for a safer travel experience on Longboat Key, whether you are traveling by car, foot or bike. I believe some correction is needed before our new season gets under way.

- My first thoughts after reading Mr Cavedo's letter last week was it must be the Observer's April 1st edition. Really, a toll road and driver check points located along GMD. "Papers Please"! The Elitists Island vs we the tax payers. Come on! No, how about a better solution. Let's close both bridges to the island and initiate a ferry service. Residents of Bradenton Beach rejoice, traffic will now be down 90%! No hassle here!

- Hey Norm, I'll expect a refund on the tax dollars (state tax dollars) that I've spent on that road, in the mail soon. Will you be sending that to me? Seriously, a toll? Excessive speed? Sounds like you've never driven on Gulf of Mexico Drive! The 45 mph speed limit cannot be achieved on any given day due to slow drivers. That is what is choking up the traffic, not the traffic itself. If everyone did the speed limit and stopped rubbernecking, things would be much smoother. To reduce the speed limit would be ridiculous. That would bunch-up traffic even more, as would a "toll.". I had to laugh when I read that.... a Toll... hahahaha...

It shouldn't even be about "re-releasing" material. For older tracks, we're just talking about upgrading, NOT buying the whole damned thing all over again....so just offer the $0.99 upgrades. Yeah, I'd love to have some older RB1 and 2 tracks have key/PRO charts on them, But to pay full price AND have them included in a DLC pack is nonsense.
I think any person that makes those purchases is being played a fool.

As the city of Sarasota prepares its plans for a parking garage on Palm Avenue, some developers and Realtors are complaining that the city is giving itself some allowances that it will not give anyone else.
Earlier this year, the city rejected several private-company proposals to build a parking garage and chose to develop it on its own. City planners will go before the Planning Board July 8 to ask for several adjustments to city zoning code — adjustments some say it will not give to other developments.
Commercial real-estate broker John Harshman said the city is discovering that some of its code is not practical.
"It's not until you do some real case study that you find out," Harshman said. "The city's (code) requirements are not economically practical."
Code requires that the building on Palm Avenue have retail or residences on the first four stories at a minimum depth of 20 feet; provide access to the garage from an alley or secondary street when possible; have no more than two lanes of traffic entering the garage; and create a 12-foot recess on the building above the second, third or fourth floors.
But the city's garage proposal doesn't comply with any of those requirements. Harshman said private developers requesting similar adjustments anticipated trouble receiving approval.
"The city may now understand these issues," Harshman said.
City planner Steve Stancel, who is overseeing the garage project, says much of the code is open for interpretation, such as providing access from an alley or secondary street "when possible," so the city is merely being conservative in asking for adjustments.
"This is a public facility," Stancel said. "When it comes to public facilities, there is greater latitude."
Stancel said the city wanted to get approval from the Planning Board before it asked builders to send design proposals, so that designs weren't created and then changed if a problem arose.

A Message from Jim Boykin, New Owner of Developer Shed
Hello Developer Shed Community Members,
My name is Jim Boykin, and I'm the very proud new owner of the Developer Shed network of sites. I am here to serve you, the users, and to work to make each property several times more useful than they are today. It's all about you, the users and the community.
Even though I wasn't elected for this position, I am still asking for your support in taking each site to new levels of usefulness and to grow the communities...they can grow a lot, if together we help to make these great communities. For years I've had this dream....a dream of making these properties wonderful resources for the users of the communities again. Now I have that chance, but I can not succeed without your support and your help, and your patience, and your faith in my intentions for these sites. My intentions are to make the sites way more user friendly, and to build up great communities that everyone can be proud of. My goals also include fixing, replacing, and adding new tools for the sites.
As the owner whom is responsible to these communities, I pledge to work to serve all visitors a better user experience, better information, better tools, and even better communities. I also pledge to listen to the communities, and to respect the views and wishes of each community, and to do what I believe is best for each community based on the wishes of the community, using the resources that I have available.
I understand that without your support, and without your sharing, and without your contributing to the community, that these wonderful websites and communities would die like a ghost town...but I also understand that we can work together towards making these sites and communities a much better place....a place of great value to the users (all of YOU) ...together, I believe we can create a place where everyone can be proud to say they are a member of, and where information can be shared without being bombarded with advertising... for that is the core of what I'm striving towards.
Now that I have been given this chance to lead, you can be assured that I'll work to do what is best for the communities first before I look at what is best for my wallet. If there is to be advertising on the sites, then it has to be relevant, and quality, and of use to the users...and not in their face taking away from the trust and usability of the site. If I give the users quality information, and quality tools, and quality communities....then I truly believe that this acquisition will, over time, give back in business karma. I don't have to spam the users.
We are about to upgrade these communities to a much newer version of vBulletin, and working to restructure the content so that it best serves the user on the website. Once we reach that stage, we can start looking at suggestions from that version. We'll be working on them, the best we can, as fast as we can, but it won't be overnight...if each day we get a little better, we'll be the Best by this time next year.
I would like to thank everyone who has helped to keep these sites wonderful resources throughout the years. I'll do all I can to value and honor all of you for helping to make these sites have quality information updated for so many years.
I'd like to thank the wonderful folks at the Developer Shed office (Jenny, James, Terri, Charles, and Eric). You guys are Awesome! Over the years your team has held together into one tight solid group that is all about doing all you can to make the sites better...even though your hands were tied in so many areas, and the higher up corporate people had goals that didn't mesh with how to best treat the community, you held together, doing all you could for the sites...I know you all deeply care for the properties, and I pledge to you to do all I can to help your team in transforming these communities into a greatness that you've all dreamed for these sites, and now we can start taking steps towards this greatness together.
I'd like to thank all the Admins and the Moderators of each community as well. Without your direction, and editing, there would be anarchy. I thank you for taking on these responsibilities, and for helping to keep the communities places where knowledge can be shared in an organized way. I understand that you're not getting paid, and you're only going to do these tasks if you want to...and I'll do all I can to continue to have you want to help make these great communities even better with your help...my goal will be to make you prouder than ever to say that you're an admin or moderator of your community.
I would also like to thank all the Millions of registered users who have contributed millions of threads and tens of millions of comments over the years. I will do the best I can to serve you and each of these communities. I will strive to keep as many of you happy as I can from today onward. You are the Community and I am here to answer to you. I know that many of you have seen changes over the years....some changes that were not so good...but know that I'm working hard to "Give these sites back to You...the users, and to the community as a whole."
I'm Feeling Lucky,
Jim Boykin

Creme De Jamaica Robusto Reviews [view details]
Give us YOUR review!Showing 1 through 10 of 32 reviews
"Nothing bad, nothing good."
Very mild. Not a ton of smoke. Just a very, very plain cigar.
BMW in PA July 20, 2013
"Overall pleasent smoke but nothing special"
Consistent flavor throughout.
Draw was a bit too light and burn was uneven. Mild, pleasant flavor with hints of latte and roasted almond.
Joe A in NJ August 25, 2012
"OK, but not for me."
This cigar was part of a mild sampler and although I wanted to like this one, I just can't recommend it.
It appeared to be well constructed. It cut and lit easily, but the burn was uneven for the entire cigar. The ash held well but the draw was too light. Mild is also an understatement.
I am a novice to smoking cigars, recently getting seriously into them, but the taste was not there. Not that it was bad, just not for me.
Tony M in Plano, TX July 4, 2012
"Mild, Consistent, Flavor"
I recently tried 2 of these and both were well constructed and burned evenly. Definitely a mild Macanudo, but flavorful and a nice change.
Paul E in PA October 5, 2011
"a great smoke"
been smoking these for years and find the constution to be very consistent and the smoke great, right down to the nub.always trying others looking for a better smoke such as pradron, gloria cubano etc and always look foreward to my cream de jamacia.
bob in ct July 19, 2010
Got it as part of a sampler. I found it mild to the point of ridiculousness. It was akin to smoking air. Maybe a beginner might find some pleasure in it, and indeed it might be a good cigar for beginners, but for anyone looking for a cigar with full bodied favor, this is not the one.
Richard in Memphis, TN May 26, 2010
"Mediocre at best"
Honestly, I got this in a sampler. It burned fine, not too hot, not too cool, evenly, etc. The ash was very loose, if that matters to anyone. The construction of it seemed fine.
But that's not what matters most to me. The smoke was not that creamy at all (compare to, say rocky patel or Olor). The taste, for what was even there, was slightly sweet on the exhale, but it was hardly even aromatic. I hardly tasted anything without exhaling, and even then it was a standard "nut" sweetness on the exhale, which is found in torrents of other, much more enjoyable cigars.
I don't recommend it. I've had a better cigar from a gas station, and it pains me to say that.
Stephen Martin in United States January 14, 2010
"Poor quality"
I got this as part of a sampler and was one I hadn't heard of before and so just wanted to smoke it and get it outta the way and hope for a nice surprise.
I ended up having to light this dam stick up 3 friggin times! The burn was so bad...and the draw wasn't smooth either. After the every initial light, I would get only a few decent draws and it was downhill from there.
I would stay away from this one.
Gilbert C. in San Francisco, CA July 18, 2009
"Good but mild"
Decent little cigar...starts a little bitter when first lit...then slowly becomes a little more mild a creamy...great with a cup of black coffee. Good if you want a break from full flavored cigars. But I would still prefer the CAO gold to this.
B.M. in Alabama January 24, 2009
Got this in a sampler. Burned beautifully with a nice white ash. The taste neither offended nor thrilled me.
Adam in Florida April 28, 2008

Two teenagers ran into a few obstacles this morning, and into some trouble with the law.
Colorado Springs Police were called around noon to a burglary at a house near Hancock and Drennan. Officer Spaulding spotted a white minivan leaving the area at a high rate of speed, and contacted the vehicle when it was involved in a traffic crash at Hancock and Morning Mist. The driver, a 13 year old boy, was a suspect in the burglary, and police learned the van was stolen.
While at the crash scene, a citizen told police that a second car was involved in a crash a few blocks away, at the Loaf N Jug at Hancock and Drennan. The person in the second car fled on foot but officers were able to close in on the suspect, later identified as a 14 year old boy, within a one-block radius. K-9 Riko found the uncooperative suspect in a shed about two blocks west of the convenience store.
Both teenage suspects were taken in custody. They were treated for minor injuries at a hospital and released. Both will be charged with numerous charges including burglary, motor vehicle theft and carious traffic related charges.

The Reining Liberty Ranch, a new veterans program in Traverse City, held a flag raising ceremony on Monday afternoon.
The ranch serves area disabled veterans by providing them with a unique therapeutic program centered around riding and caring for horses.
Today's ceremony meant a lot to the organization and it's members because they have only been around since November.
"It means acceptance of this ground," says Becki Bigelow, owner of the Reining Liberty Ranch. "It means belief in tomorrow. It means we see a future together and we all together hope to serve well into the future. It's a big important day. It makes us somewhat official."
The flags and pole were donated by the Disabled American Veterans local chapter.
The Traverse City coast guard raised the flag and other area military chapters attended the ceremony, along with friends and family members of the veterans.

In Cherryhill there stand four schools that wage war amongst one another in regards of territory and life. It is a stupid fight, whose origin dates back for forty years, yet happens nonetheless, a battle that lasts throughout the school years (and sometimes even summer, if students recognize one another without their uniforms), between the North, South, West and East- Suzaku, Byakko, Genbu and Seiryuu.
Suzaku is an all-boy's school known for their long lines of rich and smart banchous. Their sister school Byakko is the all-girl's school dedicated to teaching girls with physical inclinations. Seiryuu of the East was a school ridden with delinquents, perhaps the craziest and deadliest out of all four schools. Then there was Genbu, what seems to be the most ordinary of all schools. Genbu was the sort of school others would find in other cities- a line separating the delinquents and the rest of the student body.
The story starts at Spring. The banchou has used his power to cause his Number Two to be killed (though rumours say she was shoved into Seiryuu- which is basically also a death sentence), and many of the Ex-Number Two's followers are not happy about such news, including the New Number Two. Now in Genbu High, the delinquents are splitting into two- one defending the current Banchou, and one trying to topple him off his throne. Even the student body and the teachers are feeling a bit of the heat. The two school nurses have gone to ignoring one another, one of them believing that the current banchou was a tyrant that deserved to be tossed to Seiryuu, the other exclaiming that the current banchou made the right decision in killing off the unloyal broad.
Two sides, one school.
And beyond that, the other schools of Cherryhill can't wait to sink their fangs into the crumbling defenses of Genbu High.

I went to get my blood pressure taken by my new Doctor and it came out pretty high. What I'm wondering is does arm size affect the reading? Do most MD's just use a standard cuff for Hmm 7-13inch arms? Or are they one size fits all. I'm asking this because I was worried and bought my own automatic machine (I know not as good as the real thing). I had to pay extra to get a cuff to fit my arm (size large). I tried out the small cuff but it has measurements all around it and says "use size large" when I have it wrapped around. When I use it it gives me pretty close to the same reading as I got at the Drs. Now when I used the large arm cuff the readings are 30-40pts lower. Before this I have never had my BP tested. Is it supposed to hurt a little bit when having it done? Cuz it hurt a bit when the Dr did it and when I use my small cuff.
I tried asking this over the phone with a nurse over at my dr's office and she basically treated me like i was full of s**t
