Chuck E Cheese Not Safe From Pedophiles? Man in girls bathroom & mgmt does nothing
We had my oldest son's 7 year birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese on Saturday afternoon. I guess my 3 year old had to go to the bathroom and he was going to be taken by my brother-in-law. Well, turns out that he ran ahead into the women's restroom ... where he was alone for up to two minutes (depending on who's story you believe).
Some >> DUDE << went into the women's bathroom at the same time and I guess no one did anything about it. I was told at the time and I asked someone about it and they said it was just an accident. Well, it turns out that some woman said that the same man followed her daughter into the women's restroom .... and they told management and CHUCK E CHEESE MANAGEMENT DID NOTHING ABOUT IT.
If I would have known, I would have stabbed the dude in the eye with a plastic fork. Just outrageous that no one did anything. I'm calling the city of Arlington police now and I just got done with Chuck E. Cheese. We got one good photo of the guy and are going to see if they have cameras that go into
---------- Post added at 05:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 PM ----------
Called Arlington PD and they're on their way to take a statement from us and then check against the Chuck E Cheese security video. I got at least one photo of the guy in a background photo, but his face is obscured. If the guy made a mistake and went into the wrong bathroom, that's a mistake I guess ... but if he did it a couple of times and followed a girl in there, that's not good and the police should have friggen been called.

Turns out that the dude was in there for maybe 2 minutes, but my kid was maybe in there just 30 seconds with him. ???? The other patron said that he followed her daughter in there. Can't believe that management didn't really pursue this.
The good news is that I have this guy in at least one background photo (partially obscured) and we can see what group he was with, some football team.
... cops are here. have to run.

10-25-2011, 09:36 PM #5I hear ya Steve. Like all loving parents, if some one looks at you kid wrong you want to rip their head off and crap down the stump of their neck. I hope the police take it more seriously than Chuck E Cheese apparently did.

Well, I got a little hot under the collar, like all eyewitness events there were some errors in the details that needed to be broken out. Someone said that it was just a couple of seconds and someone else said it could have been a couple of minutes. Either way, there was one man in our group that saw this happen and didn't at least knock on the women's restroom door to try to get my kid out of there. That's what ticks me off more than anything, but I guess different people react differently to situations. I'm an action guy so I like to be direct and not passive in these kinds of situations.
Anyhow, doesn't look like any harm. The policewoman who came out was clearly into an "alternate lifestyle" if you get what I mean, and wasn't that concerned with issues of a person of the opposite gender going into a restroom ... even though it does look like it's a crime in Texas, there was a case in houston last year on a similar issue.

Do you know a good mechanic?
No. 2: Take care of your car
Perhaps you've been told once or twice in your life that if you take care of your car, it will take care of you, or some such cliché-style rhetoric.
As corny as these overused quasi-altruisms are (and make no mistake: they are corny as the Nebraska countryside), they also happen to be true.
Get to know a local grease monkey. Introduce your vehicle to said grease monkey. Allow the relationship to flourish by bringing the two together on a consistent schedule, using oil changes, engine diagnostic scans and overall tune-ups as the excuse.
Not only will you get to play Cupid, but you will also reap the fringe benefits of an efficient, happy car.
What's new on the Web?
No. 1: Check gas prices online
There are more tools for your car than the ones in the garage.
We live in the Information Age after all, where pretty much anything you could possibly want to know is only an Internet connection away. It is perhaps the most versatile tool ever.
You probably already use the Web as a tool for managing your bank accounts or making changes to your fantasy football team's roster, so why not use it to find the cheapest gas?
There are a number of companies with the foresight to establish websites whose sole purpose is to help you find the lowest prices on fuel in your area. Most of these companies use spotters to provide up-to-the minute prices. Some even have the capability to track specified stations near your location.

Tiara Restaurant - Queen's Landing Hotel
Online Reservations
The Tiara Restaurant at Queen's Landing is our most favourite place to dine. It's an hour and a half drive and well worth it. The food has never been a disappointment. The Sunday brunch is very abundant. The décor is formal and romantic.
We had a group of 9 for dinner. The entire experience was top notch. Our server Jill was outstanding in all areas from initial greeting to food and wine suggestions. She exceeded our expectations and made our mother's day dining experience very memorable. We definitely will be back. Good was outstanding in quality and taste and cooked perfectly to everyone's unique tastes. In fact, have reservations on May 26th to celebrate a family birthday.
We have eaten at the Tiara Restaurant many times. I can honestly say that they truly pay close attention to wonderful service and meeting the needs of each and every guest. The menu changes through each season and they utilize locally sourced food. They have gotten back to a more refined, tighter upscale menu. The staff is seasoned and will provide you with excellent recommendations. This is a restaurant for a special occassions or for a nice weekend away (as it is part of a hotel). The servers are outstanding (wonderful service always from Rudy and Jill and the rest of the team). The atmosphere is intimate as it looks out into the Niagara river and is also perfect for brunch or breakfast (Our server Gerry is excellent).
Dinner at Tiara was pleasant. We had a window table but waited about an hour for our food. The waitress was pleasant and steered us to the best Cabernet we have tasted in a long time. It was from France and was smooth and delicious. Our dinner arrived and my husband's tenderloin was perfect. My fish was cold in the middle and I sent it back. My replacement was outstanding. We declined dessert because we were full and it was 9:45 - our reservation was at 7:30. Overall I would go back. I think because of the size of the dining room they must get larger groups and it was a Friday night. I don't know if the wait was because of this, but the overall experience was fine.
My wife and I attended Tiara for a very special occasion and they did not disappoint. The food was phenomenal and the service was exceptional. Rudy and Christophe took excellent care of us, with detailed attention to our party and extras that were not expected. Fantastic experience
The Tiara Restauraunt is great for any occasion. Staff are pleasant and friendly and inviting. We had Breakfast there as well as Dinner and the service was well timed and certainly surpassed even what we have come to expect. Unfortunately, the service at dinner did not meet our expectations, based on our previous experience. The food in both cases did meet our expectations. We would definitely recommend this restauraunt hoping that the service at dinner was just an aberration from the usual standard of excellence.
We loved our waiter, Rudy! He was very personable and friendly. It was my birthday and he went all out with rose petals on the table and candles on my dessert! He was kind enough to take more than a few photographs for us too! The only "BUT" was that my husband loves quality wine. I do not drink and he found that you could only buy the wine he wanted by the bottle and that they did not offer it by the glass or by the half litre. Unfortunately, he opted for an ice Tea. We had a lovely dinner and would recommend friends and family to dine at the Tiara Restaurant. Thank you! Best Regards, Liz Proulx
The whole dining experience was wonderful. Our waiter, Rudy, was outstanding, often going above and beyond what was expected.
Due to bridge traffic, we were 50 minutes late for our reservation! The hostess could not have been more understanding (we did call ahead) and our waiter Michael was WONDERFUL!! Just perfect food,(taste, presentation, amount, temperature....) could not have asked for better, except for more time!!
Tiara provides one of the finest Sunday brunch experiences I've ever encountered. Food is top-notch and fresh. From the poached eggs to the tangles of bacon, to salmon cooked and cold, the food was scrumptious. We opted out of freshly made waffles or omelets, but they sorely tempted us. Fresh fruit was tasty and abundant. Desserts were on a still higher plain if culinary delight. The cherry cheesecake I chose was light and frothy. A taste of the carrot cake proved delicious as well, but our family awarded top honors to the banana-chocolate cake. Our waiter, Arthur was attentive and playful.
Rudy and Lorraine (our servers)were professional and courteous. Scenic view of the water and lovely ambience in the restaurant.
Dinner was delicious. Restaurant was not too busy which made it relaxing and peaceful. Service was pleasant only wish the restaurants choice of background music was better. It did not suite the atmosphere.
We had a great Sunday brunch. Our only disappointment was that we made our reservation for 1pm and there was not any dessert left. The staff was very friendly and professional. We would happily go for brunch again.
I had a wonderful meal and time at the Tiara Restaurant. My service was impeccable and my dinner was absolutely wonderful!!! This is a very lovely restaurant with gorgeous views of the Niagara river. I can't wait to dine there again.
Pleasant staff, wonderful food, great environment. Celebrated spouse's birthday. She was given a rose with her birthday message.
The service was impeccable but never intrusive or overbearing.
if anything the service was too much. So many people came by to ask how we were liking everything
We have been to Tiara at least four times now, August 3 being the most recent. We wouldn't keep returning if we weren't fully satisfied with the food, service, etc.
We highly enjoyed our first visit to Tiara Restaurant. We chose it because it was close to the Shaw Festival Theatre and were delighted at what a good choice it was. The food is very good: the mushroom bisque and salmon are both great. We were especially impressed with our server, Jill, who was very helpful in terms of making sure we had enough time to eat and still make the show and who was overall very friendly and charming. We'll definitely return.
We (group of 5) went for lunch over the Civic Day long weekend, and we were pleasantly surprised! We received excellent services by Gerry, and we truly enjoyed all of the food that we had. We ordered food to share which included Seafood platter, lamb burger, quinoa burger and chicken breast. Even the croissants that were given before the meal were delicious (although they were served cold)! Ladies even got roses at the end of the meal!! We will definitely go back again!
This restaurant is expensive, and one is generally asked if this is a special occasion as one is being seated, which says a lot about the experience. I have eaten here twice, and it has not been crowded, but even if it were full, there is plentiful room and it would be easy to converse. The service is impeccable, the food delicious and the wine list extensive. And the view is over the garden to the lake beyond.
We were a party of 6 for Saturday night dinner and we all had the same comments. The food was superb and the service was excellent. We felt that we had personal attention that went well above the norm.
Returned to this restuarant from 2 years ago. Worth the effort. Quiet elegance and top cuisine makes this a place I will return to in the future. The food was more excellant, it was an adventure in presentation, every dish excelled.
We were there for our anniversary dinner and breakfast the next morning. We were seated by the window with a lake view both times and we found it rather pleasant and romantic! We received attentive service adorned with friendly smiles right from the moment of entering into the restaurant. Our personal wait staff were knowledgeable and ready to make our dining experiences the most pleasant ones we received that we could recall for a very long time! Thank you for making our anniversary getaway more special and memorable!
The food was amazing the server was very knowledgeable and helpful.
The service was excellent and the food was very good. Thanks for making our 10th anniversary a special one. We will defently be back.
The quality of the menu was second to none -- highly recommended for smaller portions (some menu items are definitely not small) with each offering an amazing taste experience. Would go again in a heart beat.
Our food was excellent but the service was what made it so special. Rose would have done anything to ensure we had the perfect meal. She was so friendly and accommodating and great at making suggestions and alternatives based on what our favourites where.
This restaurant was a surprise hit, exceeding all our expectations. We chose it for convenience of location to the Festival Theatre, and expected a decent meal but not necessarily anything more. Instead, we had some of the best food we've had in NOTL in years, and superb service. A totally delightful experience, as a result of which we will be making Tiara a regular dinner venue for future NOTL trips.
Our party of four had lunch here before attending a Shaw Festival play just steps away. The food was quite good (and there were vegetarian choices for some in our group) and the service was attentive and friendly. We got done in time for the show, but with no hurry (allowed 1-1/2 hours) so it was a pleasure to not be rushed. A lovely room with a pleasant view and plenty of light added to a very pleasant experience. Because this restaurant is in a hotel, there was free parking, too, which is a bonus in this crowded tourist town.
The ambience was wonderful, the chairs were extremely comfortable, the servers were thoughtful and helpful. It was our mother's birthday and the kitchen wrote a sweet message on the dessert plate and put a candle in the cake. We were happy that there was no birthday singing! Our mom would not have liked that! We were only slightly disappointed that the salad had iceberg lettuce, otherwise the food was delicious and beautifully plated. We felt very well taken care of. We will be back!
My wife had a girls(mother, sisters, and nieces) lunch on Friday Afternoon at Tiara in late September. The food was excellent, our server was informative, helpful, with great recommendations and careful service. It was not her first time and would certainly return and recommend it. A very enjoyable experience was had by all.
From the servers to the kitchen, Tiara never disappoints. Each one of the dishes was superior in quality, inventiveness and presentation. The (Canadian) Lake Erie pickerel was a special treat, rarely found and especially delicious. The servers ability to work with the kitchen to accommodate vegetarians, beyond their regular vegetarian offering, was very much appreciated as was the ability to modify items to better fit diners desires. Comprehensive wine list and offerings in hard liquors also a big plus. If you've got a favorite gin, for example, chances are you'll find it here and not need to compromise.
We enjoyed the ambiance and the view. The menu was different and original. We thought the cuts of meat as well as the seafood were very good. We were not as impressed by the vegetables. Excellent wine list. Overall it was a very good dining experience. Our waitress, Rose, was helpful and attentive.
Our thanks to Arthur, he was terrific,and he was very thoughtful throughout our lunch.
We booked Tiara based on other reviewer's comments and were not disappointed. This was probably one of the best dinners (if not the best) we have had to celebrate our anniversary. Our server, Jill, went above and beyond to make the occasion special for us. We really could not recall another time when someone was so attentive. From making recommendations about what to order that fit us perfectly to ending the evening with a rose, she was the best. We highly recommend the restaurant for your special occasion and ask for Jill.
Tiara was a nice setting for our anniversary dinner. The waiter was wonderful and attentive. The overall ambiance was nice, but slightly stuffy and hard to relax in. The food was good, but nothing note worthy or worth coming back for. We had a lovely night, likely accented by the bottle of wine we shared, but will not return to Tiara.
Fabulous menu. Beautifully appointed. The wait staff, especially Rose, were fabulous. It was a wonderful end to a fantastic day of wine tasting in the area. Very highly recommended.
Very simply one of the nicest restaurants I have eaten at in a long time. From the friendly staff to the fantastic food to the great martini to the Anniversary plate they served our dessert on it was a fantastic experience. Oh yea the Lobster Poutine was a real treat. I would go back again and again.
I had the soup of the day (squash) which was flavourful but served only lukewarm. The bread basket was fresh and very tasty. My wife and I both had fish and chips, with too much batter on the fish and it was overcooked so the batter was hard and greasy. The portions were large. If I had known, I would not have ordered the soup because I had too much food, but it was a cold rainy day and I thought a hot soup would warm me up.The service was friendly and attentive.
My wife & I ate here for our 20th anniversary and it was outstanding. from the greeting at the door, to the outstanding services to the incredible food. They certainly earned and exceeded their 4 diamond rating to us.
Even though there was not a ton of choices of food, there was more then enough variety to please us. What was offered was great and the service was great.
We dined in this restaurant while on vacation. It was one of the finest dining experiences we ever experienced. Everything from service, presentation and taste was impeccable. We will most likely make the 7 hour trip again just to be able to try the rest of the menu
We were very happy dining here. The waiter and staff seemed very knowledgeable of the menu and wine list. They greeted us with a friendly smile and made us feel at home there. The food was delicious and the dessert divine. One of the best creme brulee I've ever had. It was the perfect date night for my husband and I. There seemed to be a few anniversaries celebrated that night. Our waiter made it extra special for a couple by adding extra touches to their dessert and taking pictures of them. Made their night all that more personal. The staff seem to really enjoy working there and doing their best to give the diner the best experience.
We did the fabulicious promotion. It gave us a taste of what your place has to offer. The taste and presentation was excellant. I, myself, would have liked a little more of the main entre. Our waiter (Michael) did inform us that this promotion scales back the regular size portions. Overall it was a good experience. Thank you.
Came very excited from all the wonderful reviews on the internet. Tiara restaurant exceeded all our expectations and a delightful experience. Looking forward to coming in the summer to eat in the view of the river.
During a weekend at Queens Landing this past fall and enjoying the excellent service and detail by the staff, we found out that they host a Sunday Brunch. We have many friends in the area thus we thought this would be a great way to enjoy some pre Christmas cheer with them. On this visit a new brunch menu was introduced with new items. The food was wonderful. So many fresh items to enjoy. Of note was the roast lamb with fig jus, roasted salmon, maple brined pork loin and freshly made crepes. What also made this visit a wonderful time was the excellent service by the staff. Our waiters Josh, Maegan and Gerry ensured we were taken care of. This is a exceptional brunch at a beautiful hotel. It's well worth the visit.
My wife and I celebrated American Thanksgiving at the restaurant on Nov 28, 2013. We chose the special turkey dinner. The food was very good and the chef was creative in the presentation; even the cranberry sauce was special. The servers were attentive and helpful. After the meal we checked out the bar for a cocktail. That experience was great also. The bar tender was helpful and interesting. The prices were fair and the experience was a good value.
Upon entering the Tiara restaurant, you are greeted with well presented/friendly staff, those of which who were very accommodating! The decor was well balanced with open space, providing comfortable seating locations for each beautifully decorated table. Given the amount of people the noise level was moderate, and due to well spaced seating I did not feel confined. The dinner menu provides a great variety of delicious starters, with a select however decadent listing of Entrees. Desert was a delight! The wine selection was vast, as was the waiters knowledge for each, and the waiters service was exceptional. Overall, it was a memorable experience and my Fiancee and I look forward to returning to the Tiara restaurant! Jess&Eve
My husband and I went for our anniversary and really enjoyed the surprise dessert they brought out, along with a rose for me and a cute, "happy anniversary," written in chocolate on the plate. Overall, the food was delicious but came out slow and was over-the-top pricey, especially given the portion sizes. There was a party of 16 that night, which is why the food was coming out slow, but that shouldn't be an excuse, considering only a couple other tables of two were seated. During the winter, there's not much scenery.

Free FTP gateway to Azure storage. Anyone interested?
Hello everyone!
Full disclosure: I'm the author of FTP to S3 gateway http://www.maluke.com/gate
I've recently started a free service to provide FTP access to Amazon S3 storage and will probably extend it to support WebDav and other protocols like SFTP. I'm also considering supporting access to Azure storage, but before I spend any time on it, I was wondering if anyone here would care to use a service like that?
I know there are a couple do-it-yourself projects of similar nature, but they all seemed fragile and are to be self-hosted anyway.
So the question is if there's any interest in a free FTP to Azure or WebDav to Azure gateway?
I sincerely hope this question is appropriate here and if not, please accept my apologies.

If you build it, they will come. This looks very useful.
Auto-scaling & monitoring service for Windows Azure applications at http://www.paraleap.com
Hi Sergey,
I think a WebDav to Azure might be the most interesting. This will allow to open files directly in their application without having to 'download' them. We already see this behavior in SharePoint: thanks to WebDav to SQL users can open Word files, edit them, save them and the change is immediately applied in SharePoint.
For the FTP part I think there are a few implementations already:
- http://ftp2azure.codeplex.com/
- http://blog.maartenballiauw.be/post/2010/03/15/Using-FTP-to-access-Windows-Azure-Blob-Storage.aspx
Sandrino Di Mattia | Twitter: http://twitter.com/sandrinodm | Azure Blog: http://fabriccontroller.net/blog | Blog: http://sandrinodimattia.net/blog
WebDav support in Windows makes a lot of unnecessary requests (locking in particular) making it look slow even with a very fast gateway, with a bit of lag between the client and the server it would get really painful. I'm looking for ways to work around that, but it's not trivial.
I've had a look at the solutions you've linked previously and the second one is simply down (I'm guessing forever) and the first one has some issues like not supporting passive mode. Not to put those efforts down, but FTP access to Azure doesn't seem like a solved problem yet.
Thank you for your feedback, but for the moment my progress was stalled by the Microsoft itself -- they don't accept subscriptions from Ukraine yet, so I'll need to get someone to get me an account first, and I guess I'll implement the Rackspace CloudFiles, Google Docs and maybe Google Storage backends first.
If anyone else has any input on the matter, I'll be checking back on this topic periodically, so do leave a comment.
Very interesting

Last Updated: September 12, 2011
Due to estate law uncertainty, a flexible estate plan is a must. If you are a married couple with a combined estate of $10 million or less ($5 million for each spouse), you might want to consider a Disclaimer Trust. This allows the surviving spouse to disclaim assets for tax advantages and receive income and principal from the Trust.
Your will would be set up like an "I Love You" will where your surviving spouse inherits all of your assets, but it also contains provisions for the potential establishment of a Disclaimer Trust. The Disclaimer Trust may or may not be utilized and gives the survivor flexibility for postmortem planning. At the time of death, the surviving spouse has the option to choose to take ownership of the assets or let all or a portion of the assets pass to the Disclaimer Trust. The disclaimed portion is usually equal to or less than the unified credit amount for the year of the decedent's death. The unified credit is the amount that can pass to heirs free of federal estate tax. The credit is $5 million for 2011 and 2012, but set to revert to $1 million in 2013 unless Congress acts.
By adding Disclaimer Trust provisions to your will, the surviving spouse can fully examine the entire set of circumstances surrounding the combined estate at the time of the first spouse's death. The surviving spouse may choose to disclaim only a portion of the estate and keep the remainder free of trust and just retain all of the property. The utilization of the Disclaimer Trust will be dependent upon the unified credit and your financial situation at the time of death.
The Disclaimer Trust gives the surviving spouse the benefit of property without having the property taxed at his or her death. The surviving spouse would be entitled to the income from the trust as well as have the ability to withdraw principal.
Be aware that the surviving spouse cannot disclaim assets over which he or she exerts control after the first spouse's death. If you choose to utilize the Disclaimer Trust, assets must be disclaimed in writing within nine months without taking any control/ownership/use of the assets. For example, if the surviving spouse inherits a brokerage account, they cannot place any stock trades or take money out, then decide that they want to disclaim.
Ensure that you name at least two successor executors as well as successor trustees for the Disclaimer Trust. Consider naming a corporate trustee or co-trustee to provide tax preparation, administrative duties and objectivity. A corporate trustee also provides continuity since the trust company will continue to do business while illness and death may prohibit individual trustees. It may be advisable to update your contingent Individual Retirement Account (IRA) beneficiaries to the Disclaimer Trusts. In that manner, any assets that are disclaimed by the primary beneficiary (spouse) would pass to the trust. Be aware that IRA, annuity, and retirement assets will pass via beneficiary designation and not via the will (unless the estate or trust is the beneficiary). In conclusion, make an appointment with an estate attorney to determine if a Disclaimer Trust is right for you.

The trouncing Republicans received in November's election was fueled partly by Democrats' success among minorities, who formed a record portion of total turnout and overwhelmingly cast ballots for President Barack Obama.
As the national GOP examines what went wrong, a new effort will focus on electing women and minorities to state office, where organizers say a new generation of Republican leaders can help change the perception that their party is no longer reflective of America's changing population.
The Future Leadership Caucus, an initiative of the Republican State Leadership Committee, will "play an important role in finding ways to increase women and minority participation in the party by recruiting candidates that reflect the increasing diversity in the electorate," according to Ed Gillespie, who is returning as the RSLC chairman after serving as an adviser to Mitt Romney's presidential campaign. He was speaking on a conference call with reporters to announce the group's formation.
That campaign has been accused of alienating Hispanic voters during last year's contest, including the candidate's support for a policy of "self-deportation" that was widely derided by both his GOP primary rivals and Democrats. Romney wound up winning 27% of the Latino vote, compared to 31% for Sen. John McCain in 2008 and 44% for George W. Bush in 2004.
Republicans have embarked on a soul-searching effort for their party after that trouncing, including attempts to appeal to a broader range of voters. Obama beat Romney in all groups except white males in November's election.
While Gillespie wouldn't delve into why he thought his former boss performed so dismally among Hispanics, he did say down-ballot candidates were forced to withstand a "negative environment at the national level" during the 2012 campaign.
But that could change, he said, if his group is successful in bringing in more women and minorities to run for offices like lieutenant governor and state legislator.
"It's not just in the GOP's interest, but it's in the interest of women and minority voters," Gillespie said, adding that the entire country, regardless of party, could benefit from more equal distribution of minority voters between Republicans and Democrats.
"It's not in the country's interest for one party to take a segment of voters for granted and another to write them off," he said. "It's not healthy."
One of the Future Leadership Caucus' co-chairman, New Mexico Gov. Susan Martinez, said part of the GOP's effort needed to include convincing more Republican women and Hispanics like herself to run for public office.
"The way for the party to grow again is to elect more Hispanics and women at the local level," Martinez said on the conference call. "I feel strongly about that. We need to look into the communities and make sure those elected officials look like those communities."
Recruitment can't happen in Washington, she said, saying groups like hers need to sit down with potential candidates where they live to truly assess their priorities.
"I feel strongly that if we get out into the communities, and are careful about our tone, and listen -- not talking about what we think they want, but listen to their needs -- I think Republicans will do a much better job in recruiting good candidates," she said.
And it's not just about immigration, she said. Groups of lawmakers in Washington are currently hammering out plans for comprehensive immigration reform, including a bipartisan panel of Senators who announced a framework for legislation in January that includes a path to citizenship hinged upon bolstering border security.
That panel included Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, who like Martinez and her Future Leadership Caucus co-chair Brian Sandoval, the governor of Nevada, are considered rising stars in the GOP.
While Sandoval said Wednesday the immigration debate in Washington could be a "strong way to attract Hispanic candidates," it cannot form the entirety of the Republican Party's Hispanic outreach.
Martinez agreed, saying that "no single issue will redefine any party."

A Top Gear fanatic has completed the ultimate motor challenge - building a £5million supercar with scrap and spare parts. Amateur mechanic Jacek Mazur, 48, made his own replica McLaren F1 for just £20,000 - 250 times cheaper than the real thing. He even paid tribute to his favourite TV show by building a tiny rear seat for Top Gear co-host Richard Hammond. His previous projects have included building his own Lamborghini and a Porsche - but the British-designed McLaren F1 has been his 'ultimate' success. They can fetch unbelievable sums and in August this year one sold for a staggering £5.1million at classic car auction Gooding & Company.

Pat and Phil are both in the top echelon of U.S. moto-trials riders (Pat is the 5-time AMA Pro National Champion, and Phil is a 3-time X-Games Champ).
They have teamed up for a stunt show like no other. Be prepared to be amazed at this duo display of phenomenal riding talent. In perfect unison, they'll ride up vertical walls, jump across big gaps, do 180 degree helicopters, bunny hops, full speed stoppies, and an endless array of balance skills.
2 shows per day: Mon 3:30p & 8p Tues 5:30p & 8p Wed 5:30p & 7:30p
ALSO: Have your cameras ready for the Globe of Death at Americade's TourExpo Beach. Come and watch a thrilling show with the riders encaged in a globe of steel, and riding in tandem at exhilarating speeds performing loops and spins while merely inches from each other. These shows run Tuesday through Saturday.
THEN: at the Party at the Ranch at the end of the big Americade Dunlop Parade on Saturday, a freestyle motocross stuntman/jumper will launch off ramps and perform jaw-dropping aerial stunts 30' above the ground ! 2 shows: Saturday 10:50am and 12:15pm.

HD didn't make SD look worse, it just showed it the way it is. HD on 4K (or quad-HD) displays looks just like HD, you can't see the difference. Good upscaling algorithms can bring some benefits, just as we see up-scaled DVD out of Blu-Ray players looking pretty good, in many cases giving Blu-Ray titles a run for their money. The big issue we have here is that many HD sources and Blu-Ray releases are just not of very good quality. There are many factors, some of the biggest being over-compression and poor compression algorithms, clipped and compressed color spaces, that sort of thing. Apple is that wildcard rumor. And I actually do expect them to go 4K with their TVs when they launch. I don't think Apple will be launching their TV product in 2012. I bet it happens in 2013. What I do expect to see first is updated Macbook Pro and Macbook Air systems with "retina" or double-density displays. New iPad with the same. Next they will move on an updated iMac with double density screen and I also expect the new iMac to have many of the rumored TV features to be incorporated. Also expecting a 25" (yes, 25 inch) cinema display with actual 4K, 4096 pixels wide, resolution. ...I have my reasons/sources.
Blu-Ray consortium is hammering out the Blu-4K spec right now. RED *NEEDS* to launch RED-RAY (or RED4K, or whatever it will ultimately be called) this coming year.
Oh, and Toshiba is first to market with consumer 4K displays. They're officially launching them friday (less than 48 hours away) in Japan. Should hit state-side in about 5 months. The 55" no-glasses 3D model is their flagship display, but they also have a 55" 4K without the no-glasses 3D (I don't know if it does 3D at all) for 650,000 yen, or about $8200 USD. 4K is here.
Sony will be showing 4K out of a PlayStation3 at CES next month. Surprisingly, I'm not under NDA about that... I don't have details though. They should also be showing preliminary 4K Blu-Ray content.

Exchange studies at KTH
KTH is a popular university for international students. Nearly 100 nationalities make up our vibrant student community. During 2012, KTH received 1372 exchange students and a large number of international master's students.
Who can become an exchange student?
In order to become an exchange student at KTH, you have to be enrolled at a partner university, i.e. one with which KTH has an exchange agreement. You must also have completed at least two years of the educational programme at your home university, with grades above average.
More about the application process
Types of exchange at KTH
Exchange students normally take courses in English that are relevant to their original degree programme, but can also request to perform a final degree project/Master's thesis at KTH.
Thesis work and degree projects
A student who wants to carry out a project must contact a relevant research group or professor directly and make the arrangements with them.
Students cannot be guaranteed to be accepted for a project. If you are accepted by the research group/professor, you should contact your International coordinator at KTH.
Other than through special programmes, such as the NUS Overseas Campus, students cannot be assisted in finding internships/placements by KTH.
Free movers
There are very limited possibilities to accept free movers (students who do not apply within an exchange agreement), partly due to a difficult accommodation situation. Students with a BSc degree or equivalent may apply for our Master's programmes taught in English.

Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges are spotted on the set of their new film R.I.P.D. in Boston over the weekend (October 2). The actors' two stuntmen were also seen. At one point, the gathered crowd confused Ryan's stuntman with him and started going crazy.
PICTURES: Check out more on the Ryan Reynolds page
Hmmm, does Ryan have a new love interest in his life? A witness told Hollywood Life that Ryan was making with the newly-single Blake Lively in Boston on Monday:
"Blake isn't upset or fazed by the breakup with [Leonardo DiCaprio] at all. When Ryan took Blake to catch her train back to NYC they were making out and looked really happy together. Blake was wearing a big hat and it fell off as she made out with Ryan on the escalator at the train station. It was really early and he was even wheeling her suitcase for her! He wanted to make sure she caught the train so he waited until she got on."

Division of Responsibilities
There is a defined separation of the responsibilities between Simon Thompson, the non-executive Chairman and Aidan Heavey, the Chief Executive Officer, which has been set out in writing and agreed by the Board. The Chairman is primarily responsible for the effective working of the Board whilst the Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the operational management of the business, for developing strategy in consultation with the Board and for implementation of the strategy.
The Chairman
On appointment as Chairman on 1 January 2012, Simon Thompson met the independence criteria set out in the Code.
Non-executive Directors
The non-executive Directors bring a broad range of business and commercial experience to the Company and have a particular responsibility to challenge independently and constructively the performance of the Executive management and to monitor the performance of the management team in the delivery of the agreed objectives and targets. As part of this responsibility, the non-executive Directors meet at least twice a year without the Executive Directors present. Separately, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer hold informal meetings with the non-executive Directors to discuss current issues affecting the Group.
As Senior Independent Director, Steven McTiernan is available to meet shareholders if they have concerns that cannot be resolved through discussion with the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer or for which such contact is inappropriate.
Efforts are made to ensure that the non-executive Directors are briefed on the more technical and operational aspects of our activities, such as the Jubilee offshore development and our extensive exploration programme. Those non-executive Directors with particular expertise in these areas meet regularly with the Chief Operating Officer and the Exploration Director when they are able to contribute more fully at in-depth discussions.
Non-executive Directors are initially appointed for a term of three years, which may, subject to satisfactory performance and re-election by shareholders, be extended by mutual agreement.

People are under the impression that organic food is safer than foods grown with chemical alterations. The organic mentality doesn't seem to remember that organic food is more likely to carry pathogens because it isn't treated with chemicals.
It all comes from farms, but organic food gets its title because the farmer can certify that it was grown under certain conditions that render it so. By 2002, this popular new method had a full set of rules and regulations to determine if a food could truly be called "organic."
If it's Bad, Recall It!
Organic food is grown in a way that is better for the land it's grown on, but it still undergoes all the same processing other foods do. It gets picked, handled, washed, and shipped to places all over the world, but if it isn't grown under the specific guidelines federally mandated, it cannot be called organic.
Can organic food be recalled? It certainly can. Records are kept of what food is transported from what farm to which destination, and if any of it is found to be spreading pathogens that make us sick, it can be traced back to the farm it came from. Class action lawyers in Los Angeles can provide the legalities of organic foods.
With all the technology and the strides being made in science today, it makes sense that organic foods are scrutinized. They're supposed to be raw, nutritious, and healthful, and with advertising laws, foods should be carefully screened as to what can be called organic.

The vision is to have at least one clean-room implementation of the
OMG ReqIF standard in form of an EMF model
and some rudimentary tooling to edit these models. The idea is to implement the standard
so that it is compatible with Eclipse technologies like GMF, Xpand, Acceleo, Sphinx,
etc. and other key technologies like CDO.
ReqIf Core - The first initial contribution will come from itemis
and will include our implementation of the ReqIF and RIF metamodels as .ecore models,
including special (de)serializers that map the EMF-models to a ReqIF conforming standard.
The model and (de)serializers are already available at itemis and need only be provided.
ProR GUI - The second contribution will come from Formal Mind and the University
of Düsseldorf and will include a front end that facilitates
working with ReqIF data (ProR). While ReqIF data could also be edited with the default
EMF editor, this is not even remotely practical: a tree view of the requirements, with the
details shown in the property view, doesn't allow users to efficiently navigate requirements
or get an overview of what's there.
This project was just provisioned. You can see the proposal
The RMF Core supports all three formats that are in use (ProR only supports ReqIf).
A powerful extension point allows seamless integration with other tools.
The first performance tests look very promising
Interested parties include Airbus, Thales, MKS and many others that are listed on the Proposal Page.
We are in the process of setting up the infrastructure - please stay tuned.
