Experience life on Grand Canary's rugged north shore by visiting scenic coastal villages and two plantations nestled in the lush Agaete Valley.
Starting off from the pier, you'll begin by driving along a predominately coastal roadway that follows the craggy northern shore of Grand Canary. Scenic highlights along this route include steep cliffs plummeting to the sea, secluded coves and long stretches of volcanic black-sand beach. Villages tend to be rather secluded, as you'll see driving through quaint San Felipe. However, there are more populous areas such as Agaete, which lies at the end of steep ravine dotted with mango, orange and lemon trees. It's a beautiful setting that has long inspired artists and writers. During your visit here, you'll enjoy a walk through this small fishing village and if it's a clear day, you may catch sight of Mount Teide, the highest point in Spain, which towers above the neighboring island of Tenerife.
Continuing on, you'll travel into one of the greenest valleys of the island, "Valle de Agaete" where a wide variety of flowers, plants and trees grow, such as papayas, mangos, oranges, lemons, almonds, strelitzias flowers, palm trees, and many others. Here, you will visit "Huerto de las Flores" a beautiful tropical botanical garden that houses a large collection of exotic plants. There will be time to stroll about before heading to your next destination, Finca de Laja, a delightful rural plantation. After visiting the wine cellar and garden, you'll be treated to a traditional Canarian snack and sample some locally produced wine before driving back to the pier.
Please note: This tour includes approximately 2-hours of moderate to strenuous walking and includes some natural terrain, cobblestone surfaces, inclines and steps to negotiate. The tour is not available to wheelchair guests or those with mobility concerns. Weather appropriate clothing; sun cap; sunglasses; and flat, comfortable walking shoes are recommended. Guests must be at least 21 years of age to participate in the wine-tasting.

In the Blink of an Eye: A Perspective on Film EditingIn the Blink of an Eye is celebrated film editor Walter Murch's vivid, multifaceted, thought -- provoking essay on film editing. Starting with what might be the most basic editing question -- Why do cuts work? -- Murch treats the reader to a wonderful ride through the aesthetics and practical concerns of cutting film. Along the way, he offers his unique insights on such subjects as continuity and discontinuity in editing, dreaming, and reality; criteria for a good cut; the blink of the eye as an emotional cue; digital editing; and much more. In this second edition, Murch reconsiders and completely revises his popular first edition's lengthy meditation on digital editing (which accounts for a third of the book's pages) in light of the technological changes that have taken place in the six years since its publication. |

The DMA Announces Best Direct & Interactive Marketing Campaigns Of 2001/2002 At 73rd Annual International ECHO AwardsHonoring the most successful and innovative direct and interactive marketing campaigns of 2001/2002, the Direct Marketing Association (The DMA) awarded CP Interactive (Madrid, Spain) its Diamond International ECHO Award, the highest tribute in the direct and interactive marketing industry, for the campaign titled "Amnisty for Safiya" with client Amnesty International (Madrid Spain).Proving the power and speed of the Internet, CP Interactive combined a powerful online/offline campaign to save the life of Safiya Husseini, a Nigerian woman who, according to the laws of her country, was to be executed in a brutal manner. With only 15 days to collect as many signatures as possible, CP Interactive combined a viral e-mail marketing campaign with a direct mail piece based on obtaining the maximum effectiveness in the shortest possible time. The campaign resulted in more than 600,000 signatures obtained via the Internet, 60,000 signatures sent via the mail/fax, and 40,000 calls to the Safiya call center, and most importantly, led to the reprieve of Husseini. From a field of 1,113 entries, 83 direct and interactive marketing agencies and their clients - 14 Gold, 24 Silver and 45 Bronze - from 14 countries around the world were awarded ECHO's. Campaigns were evaluated on response results, marketing strategy, and creative components. The awards were presented at a gala event hosted by comedic actor Kevin Nealon of "Saturday Night Live" fame during The DMA 85th Annual Conference & Exhibition on October 20th in San Francisco, CA. Other top awards included:
According to The DMA's 2001/2002 Economic Impact study, overall media spending for direct and interactive marketing initiatives rose 3.6 percent to $196.8 billion in 2001 from $189.9 billion in 2000. According to the latest findings, direct and interactive marketing represents more than 55.2 percent of total U.S. traditional advertising expenditures. Sales revenue from direct and interactive marketing rose nine percent last year to $1.86 trillion from $1.71 trillion in 2000. According to The DMA's "Economic Impact: U.S. Direct & Interactive Marketing Today" study, direct marketing sales growth, over the next five years, will outpace overall sales growth in the U.S. by 3.5 percentage points. The DMA is the leading trade association for businesses interested in interactive and database marketing, with nearly 4,700 member companies from the United States and 53 other nations. Founded in 1917, its members include direct marketers from every business segment as well as the nonprofit and electronic marketing sectors. Included are catalogers, Internet retailers and service providers, financial services providers, book and magazine publishers, book and music clubs, retail stores, industrial manufacturers and a host of other vertical segments, including the service industries that support them. According to a DMA-commissioned study, direct and interactive marketing sales in the United States exceeded $1.86 trillion in 2001, including $118 billion in catalog sales and $30 billion in sales generated by the Internet. The DMA's Web site is www.the-dma.org, and its consumer Web site is www.shopthenet.org. |

The International Reading Association will be hosting its first Twitter chat on Thursday, July 18 at 8:00 p.m. EST. The hour-long chat will pose a unique opportunity for educators at all levels of experience to discuss the topic "Digital Writing in the Classroom" with fellow educators. Teachers will be able to talk about why digital tools benefit student writing, trade strategies and pointers for using them, and share what did or did not work for their class, among other subjects. You will find the conversation by searching the official #IRAchat hashtag.
Julie D. Ramsay, sixth grade teacher and author of 'Can We Skip Lunch and Keep Writing?' Collaborating in Class and Online, will be on hand to participate. "Through chats, connections are made and conversations and collaborations continue long after the official chat has ended," she says. "I love the flexibility and impromptu nature of discovering what everyone else will share and the questions they will ask."
You can learn more about Ramsay's background in classroom technology by checking out Plugged In, her monthly column on the Engage blog. Other Engage writers, such as App a Day columnist Lindsey Fuller, will also partake in the chat.
Want to join the conversation? Please share your thoughts using the #IRAchat hashtag. Or, feel free to just kick back and follow.

I got this and the Glow Crazy Distance Doodler. I have two kids, so I wanted to be sure we had two pens. The pen for this Glow doodle dome was very weak. We had to actually have the pen touch the side of the wall for it to even make a faint mark. We even changed batteries 3 times to be sure it wasn't weak batteries (used different brands as well). The pen for the distance doodler was amazing. It work well and made the tent really fun. Except, like I said, I have two kids. One pen doesn't work for me. I had to pack both away and have two upset kids. (I am not going to have them fight over one pen). One other thing is that the dome was a little small. My kids are 7 and 4 and small for their age. It was super snug for both of them to get into, and there was only one small space for them to actually doodle on. It may be meant for 1 kid at a time, and just doesn't work for us.

I bought this as a gift for my niece and when she opened she was excited. Now when she tried to get it to glow on the inside..well there is only 1 12x12 panel on one wall! Having a hide out was great but very miss leading!
My Nephew lovvvvvvves it!!!!
By Mamaof5
from Owings Mills, MD
I bought this for my almost 4 year old Nephew's Birthday but had to give it to him early because I knew he'd love it and low and behold he does. He loves the fact that he is in his own little world, he loves drawing inside of it on the wall that lights up and he loves just shining the light from the pen on the walls and on other surfaces, like a flash light. I just gave it to him today so I have no complaints about it. Your child will love it.

The pen completely broke after the first hour! My daugther was loving it and now she is in tears. My husband took it apart to see if he could fix it and said that there was a wire that had become disconnected. He blames it on cheap manufacturing.

LG Handsets Excel in Design, FunctionsVice President, Mobile Communication Company, LG Electronics Today, LG stands as one of the strongest companies in the electronics industry. This represents a significant improvement from when I joined LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company in 2005. Since then, we have moved from a second-tier follower to a first-tier leader, setting new trends in both design and technology. Achieving this required a heavy dose of differentiation ― not just from other players, but from our own prior image. But all companies want to differentiate. How could we set ourselves apart in a way that was truly special? We developed a strategy underpinned by a belief in the value of consumer insight. We felt then, as we do now, that an emphasis on consumer insight would create a better consumer experience, regardless of whom the competition may be. We studied consumers in strategic markets to really understand what they wanted out of our products and how they wanted them to fit into their lives. What we learned is that no single factor, but rather a combination of stylish design and smart technology were needed to set us apart. Design expresses technology, technology makes design possible. They are both equally important and one cannot exist without the other. Since our discovery, achieving harmony between these two has been the driving force behind our products. To ensure that across the world all of our operations and customers understood the importance of stylish design and smart technology, we set out to create a single, coherent global brand identity. As a company, we also eliminated any sub-brands, ensuring that all of our products were sold under the LG banner. At LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company, we'd already had some success at creating products that use design and style to create an emotional connection with customers. A perfect example is the Chocolate Phone, which has now sold nearly 20 million units. Our designers wanted to create a phone with a completely uninterrupted facade. Our engineers made this possible, creating a touch-sensitive keypad that was the first of its kind. There are other examples of using advanced technology to realize groundbreaking design. The PRADA Phone by LG was the first full touch screen phone. LG Secret is the slimmest 5 megapixel camera phone available and incorporates new materials such as tempered glass and carbon fiber. Even more recent is Renoir, a highly advanced multimedia phone with a slim, polished design and an 8 megapixel camera. Our efforts to create a new brand identity and our application of the principles underlying this identity to our products paid off. LG's brand recognition in the UK soared to 91.4 percent in 2007 versus 80 percent in 2005. During the same period, U.S. brand recognition of our company rose to 83.1 percent from 65.1 percent. At LG, we will continue to enhance our brand image and further develop our strategy, creating products based on combining style and design. We will also continue to seek consumer insight, because we believe that by truly understanding consumers, we can create sophisticated products that will excite and delight them, and thus lead market trends. |

What did you think of Ultimate Spiderman and X-Men when they first came out? I didn't get them when they came out and wouldn't read them because I thought they were childish rehashes of old stories. I didn't even read them, (apologies to Bendis and Millar), so I couldn't even make a proper judgement.
Then my comic book dealer told a friend these things were the hottest things on the market, so I got issue 4 of Ult SM and missed the first 3!! (I could only get the 3 issue compilation put out later). But I did get the first Ult X-men.
I had a preconceived idea that anything new, that looked different to what was was coming out in 2000, was not good quality. It was the biggest shock to learn that Bendis wrote better than Stan Lee. And I absolutely hated Bagley, from the art in the Clone Saga. But boy did Bagley change. He drew bigger panels, used art as drama, and slowed the pace down to a quarter pace.
Overall. the Ultimate universe brings more surprises than even the the current MU. I have no idea what new shock-surprises they will wheel out in the future. But when Bill Jemas bet his shirt on Bendis and those expensive hard covers, I was the most surprised, that people could think from strange directions and make everything so alive.
How did you see those heady days in 2000.

Yeah, finally some mention of the Baha'i Faith on this site! Krista's constant assertions that there are 3 monotheistic religions is getting tiresome to those who understand the power of the world-wide Baha'i community.

Thanks for posting this. I too, as a Baha'i, felt

Thanks for posting this. I too, as a Baha'i, felt similarly and appreciated his perspectives. His remarks on a greater morality coming out of an evolving, global community makes sense.

Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act
In 1968, Congress enacted the Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act, 15 U.S.C.S. § 1701 (1998). In enacting the law, it was Congress' purpose to eliminate fraud in interstate sales of land. Briefly stated, the law requires certain disclosures in connection with the sale of vacant land.

text: Home Culture Does Kanye West Need a Therapist? Instead of praising his erratic behavior, real friends should urge him to seek professional help. By: Cord Jefferson Posted: Nov. 15 2010 11:26 PM 0 In a flowery open letter to Kanye West last week, Def Jam founder and media mogul Russell Simmons told the oft-embroiled rapper that "brilliance is not a word that can even begin to describe your ability." Referencing a few of West's most recent musical achievements, as well as the renewed controversy surrounding his infamous assertion that George Bush "doesn't care about black people," Simmons concluded that, ultimately, the kid is all right. "Keep on, Kanye," wrote Simmons. "We love you." The affectionate note got around the Internet quickly, with thousands of West admirers sharing Simmons' well-wishing on Facebook, and thousands more spreading it around Twitter. "Thank you, Russell, for speaking the truth about Kanye," one commenter wrote beneath the letter. "I love you both." No doubt Simmons' message was prompted by the fact that West has been in the news a lot lately. After George W. Bush revealed in his new book that West's branding of him as a racist was one of the lowest points of his time in office, the former president then elaborated on the NBC Today show. In response, West requested his own Today appearance, during which he apologized for his accusations against Dubya but then sparred with Matt Lauer about using embarrassing B-roll footage during the interview. After the taping, West promptly took to his Twitter account and declared that he'd been "set up" by Lauer. He then canceled plans to perform on Today later this month. Paradoxically, erratic behavior has become a constant for Kanye West. His temper tantrums are the stuff of legend, occasionally prompted by the suspicion that people "won't give a black man a chance." More than once, he's proved that no event is too grand for him to bum-rush the stage and demand to be heard -- and when the attention he demands sometimes becomes too much, West has violently attacked paparazzi. He has a tendency to go into hiding in remote locations. And as he exhibited on Today last week, even minor perceived slights can set West on edge. That all in mind, perhaps it's no wonder the rapper's media trainer quit on him this week. By all accounts, West's mercurial career has been stained by major incidents of suspicion, unpredictability, rudeness, selfishness and violence, and yet here is Russell Simmons, outright telling West to keep on doing what he's doing. To anyone paying attention to important movements in the black community, Simmons' unvarnished support of West speaks to a much bigger, more important issue: untreated mental health problems. In fact, if West really wants to be a person worthy of the public's adoration, I suggest that he ignore Simmons' letter and focus on a completely different piece of writing from last week: Hill Harper's piece on The Root about the scourge of undiagnosed depression in the African-American community: Fact is, only one out of three African Americans who need mental health care receives it. Why? Think about it: When we're not feeling well -- for instance, if we have a cough or a migraine -- we immediately take stock of our condition. We start adding up all of our symptoms and try to match them to an illness. … When it comes to our mental health, we're conditioned to not pay the same kind of attention or to have the same set of responses. We're told by people around us to "cheer up," but rarely do people suggest that we go to a doctor who can help. If you don't think West might suffer from a serious mental health problem, compare his behavior with some of the symptoms of bipolar disorder, a complex mood disorder characterized by swings between mania and depression: irritability, exaggerated self-esteem, impulsiveness, temper tantrums, irrational outbursts. Some sufferers also complain of paranoia. Does any of this sound familiar? Worse still is that just last month, West admitted to feeling suicidal, a symptom of both depression and bipolar disorder.

I did this mini-interview with Herbert, I love his writing, he never uses the traditional strong language of erotic fiction, but boy, is his stuff hot! If you love you Science Fiction, futuristic and thriller genre's with a bit of difference, Herbert is your man.
Welcome Herb, please tell us a little about yourself
I am a writer. At least I consider myself one, even though some people may not acknowledge that. Ive always been writing. My first accomplishment was a little comic book Cowboy Jippi. I think I was about 10 years old at the time. In my teens, I wrote poems and short stories. One of my short stories, a play, was actually bought by a radio station in Germany and was broadcast over the radio in a program for Schools. I also wrote stories for The First audio Science Fiction Magazine (in German). That very first audio tape was kept in a museum for Space Exploration in Stuttgart. I hope it is still there. My first completed novel by the title of The Galactics was also written in German. I was very proud of it. Then. Now I keep it hidden away from prying eyes.
Besides writing, I also spent my time reading and drawing.
In my other life, I am a retired Electrical Contractor, a husband, a father, and a grandfather. Even though I am retired, I dont seem to have enough time to write. Too many other things to do. Sometimes, as writers, we forget that there are other people who need our company. Family is very important to me.
I live in Winnipeg, Canada. No, we dont always have snow here. The summers get pretty hot. Mind you, it would be nice if they were longer.
What is the most satisfying aspect of writing for you Herbert?
The most satisfying aspect for me is the fact I can finally share all the stuff Ive been writing with others. There are actually people out there who like what I write. I just wish I could get my books out to more people.
Would you call yourself a science fiction junkie and are you a Trekkie
Yes, I have always been a Science Fiction junkie. Im not a Trekkie, but I am a fan. Ive seen all the TV shows (Startrek, Voyager, Deep Space 9) and I miss them.
What is coming up next for you?
Im working on a novel right now under the title Tainted Valor. It is a contemporary murder mystery/thriller with the war in the Middle East as a background. No explicit erotica. I have to admit, I find it harder to write than Science Fiction or Fantasy. Im aiming for a longer novel (Im at 58,000 words as of July 24, 2007). The problem is, so many other ideas keep popping into my head and they scream to be written, but Im determined to finish this one before I start anything else.
Where does your muse hit you and do you need any specific setting to write in?
I used to write in my van, during my lunch hour, but now, since Im retired, that environment is gone. Fortunately, I discovered I can write anywhere. For instance, my short story Gin and Tonic I wrote while vacationing in the Dominican Republic, sitting in a lounge by the ocean. What inspiration and beautiful backdrop to a story!
Thanks Herbert!

Summary (Masterplots, Fourth Edition)
Hanover is a frontier town huddled on the windblown Nebraska prairie. One winter day, young Alexandra Bergson and her small brother Emil go into town from their new homestead. The Bergsons are Swedes. Their life in the new country is one of hardship because their father is sick and the children are too young to do all the work on their prairie acres. Alexandra goes to the village doctor's office to get some medicine for her father. The doctor tells her there is no hope for their father's recovery.
Emil, who had brought his kitten to town with him, is crying on the street because the cat had climbed to the top of the telegraph pole and would not come down. When Alexandra returns, she meets their neighbor, Carl Lindstrum, who rescues the cat. The three ride toward home together, and Carl talks of his drawing. When Alexandra and Emil arrive home, their supper is waiting, and their mother and father are anxious for their return. Shortly afterward, Bergson calls his family about him and tells them to listen to Alexandra, even though she is a girl, for she has proved her abilities to run the farm capably. Above all, they are to keep the land.
Alexandra is still a young girl when her father dies, but she immediately assumes the family's domestic and financial troubles; she guides everything the family does, and through her resourcefulness, she gains security and even a measure of wealth for her brothers and herself. Emil, the youngest brother,...

The Frog Princess has a thing for snails.
They hold a special place in her heart.
After spending time
with our THREE pet snails
(two aquatic snails,
one golden, one black
in our fish tank)
and now...
our backyard snail named Tiny,
I have to admit I really like them too!
The girls stayed at Grammy and Grandpa's house
last weekend while the hubby and I celebrated
our 11th Wedding Anniversary
(by installing two SolaTubes -
yes we're green home improvement nerds)
The Frog Princess was playing
in the backyard
and found Tiny hanging out in the garden.
She has been begging me
for a land snail.
The Frog Princess and her Grammy
did some research online
and found a website from a teacher
who keeps snails in her classroom.
(If I can find her site again, I'll add a link.)
She had lots of good advice like
use a plastic shoe box instead of cardboard
(because the snails can eat through the paper and escape)
They eat lettuce, Hosta Leaves,
cornmeal mixed with oatmeal...
They need a calcium source to build up their shells,
I have some in a jar from the pet store
but you can use ground up egg shells
or ground up snail shells (yikes!! a bit cannibalistic)
She also said to use pantyhose
(I knew my bag of hose I've been saving to recycle would come in handy)
or mesh as the lid for ventilation.
It needs to be moist but
not TOO humid.
Tiny the snail likes to climb the ceiling.
The slime trails he leaves are really cool.
We use a mister to mist his tank with water
to keep the moss moist and refill his water dish
(a repurposed plastic bottle cap)

The principal authority for contemporary American Jews, in the absence of compelling religious norms and communal loyalties, has become the sovereign self. Each person now performs the labor of fashioning his or her own self, pulling together elements from the various Jewish and non-Jewish repertoires available rather than stepping into an "inescapable framework" of identity -- familial, communal, traditional -- given at birth. Decisions about ritual observance and involvement in Jewish institutions are made and made again, considered and reconsidered, year by year, and even week by week. American Jews speak of their lives, and of their Jewish beliefs and commitments, as a journey of ongoing questioning and development. They avoid the language of arrival.

Have you ever how fast a tank can move or what catipiler tracks are? Tanks can move at differant speeds.It depends on what the tank terrain is and what kind of tank it is.Some tanks can go about 25mph on dirt but about 40 on the road. some have gone 60 to 70mph!But tanks are not really built for speed.The tanks tires are made of medel chains.they make continous tracks or catipiller tracks. Rubber tires would not work on a tank because they do not have enough traction and they could pop.
catipiller=continous. the tank is making catipiller tracks

Council reprieve for Halcon homes (From This is The West Country)

Council reprieve for Halcon homes
3:00pm Tuesday 23rd October 2012 in News
TENANTS have welcomed the scrapping of proposals to bulldoze hundreds of council houses which generate £1million a year in rent for the local authority.
Instead of replacing them with twice as many housing association homes, a smaller number of properties in Moorland, Beadon, Creechbarrow and Valley Roads in Taunton could be replaced.
The move at this month's executive meeting is widely supported as efforts are made to improve life for people in north Halcon.
Cllr Jean Adkins, housing services portfolio holder at Taunton Deane Council, said the revised scheme would help tackle deprivation and "reflect the aspirations" of the estate.
A consultation showed residents want to see issues ranging from anti-social behaviour to speeding addressed.
The council is working with other agencies to improve the area, including better access to health and other services.
A Deane spokeswoman said: "At the same time, existing properties owned by the council will be maintained and improved with any new housing built to the highest energy-efficient standards."
Dustyn Etherington, Tenant Services Management Board chairman, said people were worried about the potential loss of council housing.
He said: "The tenants and residents were asked what they wanted and were listened to.
"The board was concerned over the loss of income and housing. This is a much better way forward."
The North Halcon Tenants and Residents Association agreed that full-scale redevelopment was not necessary to address the area's problems.
Halcon district councillor Tim Slattery, who supports the new approach, said: "Residents don't want their community and houses demolished – they want to work together to build the area up.
"Housing is only a small part of the problem as Halcon is in the top 5% of most deprived wards in the country.
"We want to see money spent on rebuilding Halcon – we're hoping to have a new health centre, and if I had a magic wand a new primary school would be built."

actually you may find your opinions about halcon being the benefit scum area of taunton to be a 1990's old new, out of date opinion. in actual fact lyngford, and priorswood have more benfit recipients then halcon does. halcon rents from actual paying tenants truely does outway costs, compared to other estates, crime/vandalism in priorswood is higher then halcon and the reason priorswood does not have trolleys dotted around the estate is because shops fear the losses so they all operate the £1 chained trolley system or dont supply troleys at all. get out from under your rock, read some statistical information for once and stop thinking about what your parents told you about 'roman road' area. as its no longer the same as the 1990's

With our Top 10 Centers and Power Forwards are in the books we are here to line up the Small Forwards. This is one of the most exciting positions to rank. Check out how the rankings went and let us know what you agree or disagree with.
Our contributors again are (Me, Ron, Martel, Nate, Tyler and Rohit). Tyler is a contributor over at FWO365 and Rohit is the EIC over at MettaChronicals. Check out their sites and show them some love we appreciate them helping us rank the players this year.
Note: We are putting the player name, team, points and what their rank was last year. (Maximum about of points that can be earned is 60)
10. Chandler Parsons, Houston Rockets, 10 pts (NR)- Chandler Parsons is one of my favorite players in the NBA so I may be a little biased. Parsons is a jack of all trades, and will only become a better player playing alongside James Harden and Dwight Howard. Parsons who in my opinion is the best bargain of the NBA. Parsons who makes a meager $850,000 has exceeded expectations since entering the NBA. People may not know too much about Parsons now, but the more the Rockets will be on national television they will see how nice Parsons is. Ron
9. Paul Pierce, Brooklyn Nets, 15 pts (4th)- Pierce is the og of his position. Probably one of the best small forwards of all time, Pierce shows that he still has a lil something left in the tank. He might not be able to dominate for a whole game any more but he still proves to be virtually unstoppable in spurts. Martel
8. Andre Iguodala, Golden State Warriors, 19 pts (7th)- On the offensive side of the ball Iguodala won't have to do too much with the Splash Bros. (Curry and Klay), Barnes and David Lee. Where he'll be counted on most is on defense, likely defending the opponents premier play maker. Nate
7. Kawhi Leonard, San Antonio Spurs, 20 pts (NR)- Leonard made this list on the great playoffs he had this year. Leonard guarded the best player(s), rebounded the rock, hit timely shots and attacked the rim (ask Mike Miller). He posted multiple double double games in the NBA Finals If he rides the momentum of the playoffs into next season he may be a lot higher on the list next year. JT
6. Luol Deng, Chicago Bulls, 21 pts (8th)- I have a certain sense of empathy every time I see Luol Deng play. It could be the first minute of a game and I already feel bad for him. This has nothing to do with him as a player, but more about what the Chicago Bulls expected from his last season. He averaged 16.5 PPG and 6.5 RPG last season, essentially the same as his career numbers. And while those numbers might not scream the $14 million he's set to make this upcoming year, just watching how hard he plays for a relentless coach like Thibodeau makes him worth the money.
Deng came into last season without a fully-healed left wrist (ligament). The long season took a toll on him as he had to burden more of the load with Rose out, leading to him falling sick in the playoffs and dealing with spinal tap complications (botched lumbar puncture). Deng averaged 39 mpg during the regular season, and almost 45 mpg in the five postseason games he played in. His minutes on the court are way too high and the main culprit for the late-season injury struggles. With Rose back and defenses focused on him, and guys like Butler and Noah continuing to improve, let's hope that Thibodeau can finally give Deng a breather. Watching him do as much as he does for Chicago is tiring enough. Rohit
5. Rudy Gay, Toronto Raptors, 24 pts (5th)- Gay might be a little high on this list after his former team the Grizzlies made the Western Conference Finals after trading him mid season. He is one of the most talented at his position. There isn't anything he can't do well on the court but this season will mean a lot to him can he turn the Raptors around? If so he may have an argument to move up the list. JT
4. Paul George, Indiana Pacers, 35 pts (NR)- Paul George became a household name after having stellar playoffs. George, who is only 23 will only improve and will have a target on his back this upcoming season. Now that he is the best player on the Pacers we will see how he will handle the expectations of being the top dog on a top team in the NBA. Ron
3. Carmelo Anthony, New York Knicks, 50 pts (3rd)- Anthony Is the most versatile scorer in the league. He can score any where on the court with a deep arsenal of moves. He won his first scoring title last season and he looks to be primed to add a few more. He's defense has improved and he's become a better all around player and teammate. Martel
2. Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City Thunder, 52 pts (2nd)- SniperJones35 was a monster last year, lighting up the court any and every which way. With a healthy return by Westbrook and the hopeful emergence of Jeremy Lamb as a solid contributor KD will carry the Thunder back to the top of the Western Conference. Nate
1. LeBron James, Miami Heat, 60 pts (1st)- Second year in a row being at the top of the list and second year in a row being an NBA Champion, just like he said, "He ain't got no worries". JT

Known as the "Sweetheart of Ohio," Loveland is located in the northeastern suburbs of Cincinnati. Loveland is a small town with just more than 12,000 residents, allowing the area to maintain a close-knit environment and typical Midwestern hospitality. People here are friendly and passionate about the good of the community, making Loveland a great place to raise a family. Look for Loveland apartments for rent, and find a charming town on the banks of the Little Miami River.
Colonel Thomas Paxton settled Loveland in 1795 between the Little Miami River and picturesque valleys of Ohio. The city was named after James Loveland, one of the first residents who operated the local general store in the early 19th century. As a stop on the Little Miami Railroad between Cincinnati and Xenia, Loveland experienced a rapid population growth. The Little Miami River separated East and West Loveland until a bridge brought the two sides together in 1872. The city was officially incorporated in 1961, and today Loveland is a flourishing community with residents who are passionate about arts and culture. Families live in Loveland apartments to take advantage of the outstanding school system and beautiful parks dispersed throughout the city.
Chateau Laroche, also known as the Loveland Castle, is one of the city's most exciting attractions. Built to honor the strength, valor and manly purity of men bestowed with knighthood, visitors can enjoy picnicking, games and puzzles, information about Sir Harry Andrews, beautiful architecture, and a collection of swords and weapons. The Loveland Arts Council hosts an annual Winter Art Show that showcases the original works of artists from the tri-state area. Residents here also take advantage of numerous art, museum and sporting events located a short distance away in Cincinnati.

Tennessee Trail Association is a major supporter of CTC |
The Cumberland Trail is an ambitious hiking trail project under development in East Tennessee. When completed, the Cumberland Trail (CT) will extend 300 miles from its northern terminus in the Cumberland Gap National Park (KY) to its southern terminus at the Chickamauga Chattanooga National Military Park located on Signal Mountain just outside Chattanooga, Tennessee. This scenic footpath follows a line of high ridges and deep gorges lying along or near the rugged, eastern edge of Tennessee's Cumberland Plateau, offering a unique wilderness experience and many scenic views, waterfalls, landscapes, gorges, wildlife, and widely varying flora. As a remote, backcountry trail it will meander through eleven Tennessee counties primarily on public lands. These lands are managed by Tennessee's Departments of Environment and Conservation (TDEC), Wildlife Resource Agency (TWRA), and Forestry. The trail also passes through two national parks and a national scenic river area. In 1998, the trail was designated the Justin P. Wilson Cumberland Trail State Park, Tennessee's first linear state park. The CT is an official component of the Tennessee Recreational Trails System and a legislatively designated State Scenic Trail. Furthermore, the Cumberland Trail is a part of the Great Eastern Trail, which is under development and will extend from Alabama to New York when completed. The continued development and maintenance of the Cumberland Trail has been accomplished through a working relationship between the CTC and TDEC. The CTC, other nonprofits, private corporations, foundations, individuals, and others assist TDEC in raising funds for land acquisition, providing maintenance, and further developing the Cumberland Trail. This extensive trail is being constructed and maintained largely by volunteers from Tennessee and across the nation, organized and managed by the Cumberland Trail Conference. The Cumberland Trail Conference (CTC) is an affiliate of the Tennessee Trails Association (TTA), a non-profit 501-(c) (3) membership organization. The CTC's mission is to design, construct, maintain, and raise funds in support of the Cumberland Trail. Building the Cumberland Trail is a grassroots effort, driven by the communities along the trail and a broad network of individuals from across the US. This very successful private/public partnership is a model often cited to demonstrate the power of volunteerism, and public/private partnerships. Under the leadership and management of the CTC, 190 miles of the trail have been constructed and are maintained. These trail miles are divided into 15 different sections, addressable through this site. Please explore this website. Y our support is greatly needed and there are many ways to help. You can help by taking a hike on the Cumberland Trail, volunteering time for trail construction and maintenance, becoming a member of the CTC, or making a monetary contribution to the trail project.

Quiet stay, fully loaded with kitchen feels like home
It was non smoking but it seemed like we were in a smoking room,
The excellent service. The prompt service. The room was real coo.Overall, I like Sienna Suites because it let me learn a little more about Vegas and its surrounding areas. What I mean by this is had it not been for your Hotel, I would not have known how to get to sam Boyd Stadium or the Ethel M. Chocolate factory. Seriously. So Thank you.
What I didn't like was the creepy people walking around your facility at night. I don"t know if you have security on the premisses or not. But it would be something to look into. Lot of Strange people walking around between midnight and 6am. No these were not tenants. Trust me. That is the only negative response I have.
I love the kitchenette, it is so convenient when traveling with children. The space is also an added benefit with kids.
Clean rooms. Very large for the price
The one bedroom suite was like brand new. Definitely would stay again in future.
clean room. no hassle or waiting time for check in.
stove/burner was not working and it took 1 hour for someone to come and fix it. No pots or pans are provided for cooking.
Large Suite with Kitchen
Bed was worn out, no waste receptacles outside.
Some reception staff specially for new one Didn't help for guest
The location wasn't very close to the strip but I would recommend it if you are travelling with Family and young kids.
I loved everything about the two bedroom suite except that the Kitchen didn't come with any utensils. Please bring your own pots and pans as well as utensils if you plan to stay here.
Liked everything
I am disable and was told, their were no room a available. Later, we couldn't find a parking near our room. We parked way back and there were vacant handicapped parking and rooms.
Good location
Reception is very bad not helping and assisting guest
Price perfect for my budget, bed sizes were perfect.
Access to the room, I would like to be able to reserve on the lower level, I have stayed at Sienna three times and have not been able to stay on the lower level, I use a cane and it's difficult to climb stairs but there's never anything available on the bottom level even when I reserve with ample time in advance.
very dog friendly
Good Bang For The Buck
Bit Of A Drive To The Strip
We had a great stay, very friendly and clean.
I called front desk to ask for additional towels but they never came, I had to go to front desk to get them myself.
Nice we stayed as a group. It was great to check in a little earlier.
The jacuzzi sides were dirty..but other than that great visit.
Value for money
No equipment in self catering apartment - not even a teaspoon! Come prepared!
It was well kept good location and the room clean, staff was nice.
Beds were very hard ac units were loud but work ok. There was some dead roaches in the rooms and outside the door.
Lack of elevators, napkins in the kuchen are and no pots......why a kitchen without them
The price was "Okay"
How far it was from the strip. That it has a kitchenette but no pots pans silverware dishes. When I asked about these items the receptionist said "you can buy some from across the street" smh I was honestly like who goes to a hotel and buys these things on a 4 day/3 night trip???. The beds were extremely hard. Did not get one good night sleep. I was so disappointed in my choice but it will never happen again. Thanks but no thanks
It was nice an cool
There were roaches everywhere
The rooms were clean and rhe pool was heated and in great condition.
The bed was not as comfortable as I would like.
I was looking for a place with a kitchen . This seem to fit the mold. Just a cheap no frills place.
There was nothing provided in the room to cook with. No pots,pans or utensils. Was brushing my teeth and a cock roach crawled out of the drain. Facilities need updating and a little rundown in the the bathrooms. Looks like there may be a few people living in units as well.
I love the location and no noise.
This trip my room was not cleaned even after calling for room service three times, the tubs didn't drain so we had dirty water 1 inch deep but I got sick and could not complain

WATSONVILLE, Calif.-- Police are looking for a man who allegedly tried to rape a young woman at the Motel 6 on the 100 block of Silver Leaf Drive in Watsonville.
The victim says the suspect forced her into the laundry room where he pinned her against the wall and tried to attack her. The girl's father came in and fought the suspect off, injuring his knee in the process. The girl was not hurt.
Police continue to search for the suspect who is described as a dark-skinned Hispanic man in his 30's.
If anyone has further information regarding this case you are encouraged to contact the WPD Investigations Unit at (831)768-3352 or the Crime Tip Line at (831)768-3544.
