"visit to family gathering."
Basically good. Restaurant were very helpful and accommodating.Ósvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
"disappointed in cleanliness and wifi service"
Staff were friendly and helpful, plus the location was suitable for our needs. I was, however, quite disappointed in the cleanliness of my room. There was a large pool (maybe the size of a deck of card) of sticky syrup on the nightstand when I arrived; a brown (drip) spot on the bathroom floor under the sink for the duration of my stay and some hair […] on the edge of the edge of the tub, again for the duration. There were three rooms in my party and all of us had difficulty accessing the wifi - I tried support with no success. I, myself, had very very limited access during my stay and only for several minutes each time. The coffee pot was not emptied of grounds or rinsed the second day. We ate in the hotel restaurant, which was OK, but we waited about an hour for our food. The waitress did apologize saying they were having a staffing problem. The hotel is old and while some areas have been updated others areas certainly show the age. The grout in the bathroom had holes in it for example. I hope they had construction workers staying there at the same time as the carpet in the elevator was always covered in dirt and leaves. There was a nice view on the water side of the hotel and the hotel itself was quite quiet. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com

"Nice Short Stay"
We stayed at this hotel just for one night as we extended our weekend last minute. I found the hotel relatively clean but is in need of updating. The staff were friendly and helpful. The outdoor pool looked nice but unfortunately it was raining so we didn't take advantage of it, but the indoor pool was disappointing at how small it was. I like the fact […] that I seen security doing rounds on the floor and also through the underground parking. There is a restaurant on site which is great so you don't need to go out of the hotel to eat. I would stay here again and recommend it to my friends that want a place to stay if only for a night or two. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia
Old and dirty. DatedÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
I would stay there again. The hotel was hidden from the main road about 500 meters from the hotel road sign. I suggest a small arrow pointing to the hotel on sign so that new comers like me don't get nervous when all you see initially was a big empty park. Had to ask bystanders where the hotel was from where the sign was. otherwise, the hotel staff […] was very ice and accommodating, although the hotel was outdated, it was nice and clean Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com

"Noisy Hotel"
The hotel is situated in a park like setting, close to a major highway and train tracks. Very noisy. The bedroom area was comfortable and clean. However, the tub was filthy and there was grunge around the sink. The sink had drainage issues. The second day of our stay we had no towels. It was difficult to find a person at front desk to help with these […] issues. There is one working elevator for the entire hotel. Restaurant food and staff were excellent. Would eat there, but not stay there. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia
The hotel was hard to find hidden behind a park but well located and very quiet. Very comfortable mattress and multiple choice of pillows. Nice view from the balcony over the marina (too bad it was empty). Only bad factor was the staff at the front desk (evening schedule), not pleasant, not bilingual and not ready to help at all (wondering why they […] work there), even with kids and other guests of the hotel. The pool was okay for the kids but we didn't have time to try the tennis court. Plan breakfast across at Tim Horton as their breakfast is expensive for a family even if it is all-you-can-eat buffet. I needed a comfortable & quiet place to rest and I got it, so nice overall rating for me. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com

"Good location--lousy guests"
Pulling up to the Travelodge, one is struck by the dated-ness of the hotel. Thankfully, the rooms themselves have been updated and are relatively comfortable. The lobby is fine. There is a nice garden on the back of the hotel looking onto the water--which is good. Balcony on the room, which is useful, especially for having some fresh air at night and […] drying beach things from the Sandbanks. There is both an indoor and outdoor pool. So, there are some good bones here. However, the upkeep is rather uneven. Dated carpet and couches are on the floors and the fitness room/pool areas could all use a makeover. The landscaping in the front of the hotel is sloppy. Most distressing was the behavior/nature of the clientele. The room next door seemed to have a family of twelve staying in it and they had no regard for others. Yelling, belching, jumping about--you can imagine the behavior in the pool! There was no regard for respecting the establishment or others staying there. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

"With regret, a very dissatisfying experience!"
To begin with, I was surprised that there was no breakfast included. This came as a surprise the next morning upon stay when I was having breakfast. Secondly, in the room there was a voucher and an opportunity to save $75 from the bill according to Travelodge Guest program, after calling downstairs, the reception notified me that is very old information […] and they would not honor the deal. Another factor was that the Internet absolutely sucked. I was here on a business meeting and Internet was critical. The Internet kept disconnecting after every 5 to 10 min for a min or so. This meant, no skype calls and interruption in streaming. The Internet was also VERY slow. When I was transferred to Internet support, I waited for half hour and then had to leave a message. They called back about 15 min later though, however they claimed there was no problem. No comment here but I felt like it was a waste of time. The TV only had some movies and an extensive list of adult movies advertised. No regular TV channels whatsoever, very disappointing. Other things that I noticed, there were hair in the washroom and the fridge was made a lot of noise. Finally, I extended my stay for a day and had to pay more than the rate of the 3 day deal that I got before. Would have appreciated the same rate I was paying for the previous days or a discount. Although in this case I can understand that some days might be more expensive. I don't think I would want to stay again unless I have no other choice! Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

"Not so bad but..."
We liked staying in this place but room service for the 3 days was not so good. We asked to get the bed lines changed but wasn't even if I had coffee drops and clearly indicated, with the blue card, that we needed it to be done. Also, we had gone the all day to the beach so bathing suit were sand filled, and we rinced those in the tub but on our way […] back after the second full day out, at 9 pm, it was still bath-sanded.

"Very Unsatisfyied customer"
When i booked the room i explained that an indoor pool with a slide was a must.... I also said i am clostephobic and wanted to be on the ground floor or up 1 at the most. I was told that was no problem and yes they had an indoor pool with a water slide. They new i was checking in on a sunday. When i got there i had a half hour wait to speak to the person […] at the desk. with only 2 people ahead of me. Then the man told me i was on the 4th floor. i said i asked for first or second floor. He said there were no rooms on the first 2 floors. and they only had rooms left on the fourth floor, Then i asked about swimming hours and was told the water slide was only running on fridays and saturdays. I told him that was the whole reason i booked the room there, was for the water slide. He didn't seem to care at all. He said the pool was open...but the slide didn't open til next friday. my kids were so disappointed. then we went to the exercise room to find half the equipment didn't work.. the room was very dusty, and the pool also wasn't clean. It was a very disappointing trip. If i didn't want an indoor water slide i could've booked a room alot cheaper somewhere else. On the phone i made it very clear that there had to be an indoor pool with slide.. they said there was. The motel room also wasn't very clean. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia
Walls seemed very thin, because you could hear what people were saying in the next room as well as their snoring. Indoor pool wasn't as warm as expected and hot tub was always closed early. Beds were very comfortable and the rooms were quite clean. I miss the complimentary breakfast that the Ramada Inn used to provide before it changed to Travellodge.

"Not Recommended"
This is very much a family hotel. I was staying with my wife and teenage daughter. On the weekend we were there, was full of kids, likely hockey teams and the such. Went to spend some time in the pool / hot tub area, and it was overcrowded, mostly kids, so went down the pretty decent waterslide once and left. The pool change rooms were old and smelly, […] the pool was way too small (especially when the waterslide was being used). Probably better to visit in the summer when the outdoor pool is open. Had trouble getting to sleep as there were kids running in the halls, yelling and just being loud. Also, could hear every word from the room next door, so walls are very thin. Asked for a later check out on Sunday but were denied, citing they had many such requests, even though it looked like the hotel had pretty much cleared out by 12pm. If you are looking for a less costly stay and don't mind noise, this hotel should be fine. Otherwise, spend a bit more and find another place. We certainly won't be returning.

"Nice view shame about the hotel"
They gave the same room to us as the last time we went and on that occasion we had to ask to change rooms because it was so noisy. I think this is a room they allocate to people booking through Expedia. The hotel is old and run down. The bathroom fittings in our bathroom wer old and looked dirty. There was a hole in the floor of our bedroom and dirty […] water dropped from the extractor vent in the bathroom. We were woken up on Saturday morning by someone repeatedly trying to get in the room. It was a member of hotel staff who thought the room was meant to be empty. It was a computer error but really he could'nt have knocked on the door or called instead of trying to enter the room? When challenged on this he did not apologize. In addition they had a wedding reception in the hotel on the Saturday and even though we were on the 3rd floor we could hear the words of the music being played. It was impossible to sleep. The only good thing is the view of the Bay. There are plenty of other hotels to choose from in Belleville and we wont be staying at this one again. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia
"Great pools, good hotel, no shower head"
The shower head didn't work in our room. And because we had booked through Expedia, they couldn't "do" anything. This was a minor blip - we used the deep (and very clean) bathtub. The pools (I said pools) were a superb hit with my family. There was an indoor pool with a slide (though the slide is only open during certain times of the day), a hot tub, […] and a heated outdoor pool that is open all year. This was a big fave since we could see the bay. We would stay again! its a good halfway point for us, not too far from the 401 and reasonable rates. Warm blankets and a great view helped.

The stay was okay. We were really only in the room for the purposes of changing before our event and then sleeping after the event. One thing I can say is that we had issues with the television remote and they were very on top of things and rectified it right away. Unfortunately we requested a Bay View Room and we were given a City View Room, but at […] the end of the day we weren't there long enough to feel that we missed out on much.

Plan a Weekend Trip to Explore the Company's Free Architectural Tours and Wright-Designed Campus
RACINE, Wis., Oct. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Fall is the perfect season for a weekend road trip or getaway. This fall SC Johnson invites everyone to take a fun and educational road trip to visit Usonia: Frank Lloyd Wright's Vision Of The American Home. "Usonia" is this year's annual, free exhibit currently showcased at The SC Johnson Gallery: At Home with Frank Lloyd Wright, in Racine, Wis.
Located on the scenic shores of Lake Michigan, Racine is a short drive for more than 15 million people within the Chicago, Milwaukee and Minneapolis-metropolitan areas. Racine is also home to the Wright-designed campus of SC Johnson – the family company known for trusted household products including Windex® and Ziploc®. While traveling through Wright's home state of Wisconsin, visitors will be able to explore the legendary architect's "Usonian" period, a term that describes his vision for the development of cities featuring affordable and practical, yet beautiful, homes, as well.
"The SC Johnson Wright-designed campus offers the perfect excuse to plan a fall road trip that will be both unique and inspirational," said Kelly M. Semrau, Senior Vice President – Global Corporate Affairs, Communication & Sustainability for SC Johnson. "We welcome everyone to Racine to explore our expansive collection of Frank Lloyd Wright artifacts and architectural designs."
Frank Lloyd Wright's Usonian Vision
Wright began designing his first Usonian home during the Great Depression as a way to bring great architecture to every person, a challenge which concerned him throughout his career. The designs incorporated a strong visual connection between the interior and exterior spaces, as well as a focus on the main living areas, including the fireplace, encouraging families to gather together.
The first Usonian house, Jacobs House I, was complete in 1936 for Herbert Jacobs, a journalist in Madison, Wis. The exhibit includes an "exploded" model of this house on special loan from the Milwaukee Art Museum. Exhibit visitors can explore the exact proportions, scale and natural materials Wright used to create this masterpiece. Other highlights of the exhibit include a model of Jester House, which offers visitors an appreciation for Wright's ability to adapt design to beautiful, natural surroundings and several important furniture pieces that resulted from Wright's 1955 venture with Heritage-Henredon furniture makers.
The Gallery, housed in the award-winning Fosters + Partners-designed Fortaleza Hall on SC Johnson's campus, is also home to the Frank Lloyd Wright Research Library that features a collection of more than 800 items. It is co-curated by Brady Roberts, Chief Curator of The Milwaukee Art Museum, and Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, Archives Director at the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation.
SC Johnson and Frank Lloyd Wright
The relationship between Wright and H.F. Johnson Jr. began more than 75 years ago. The first building Wright designed for the company was the Administration Building in 1936, followed by the Research Tower in 1944. Today, more than 6,000 Wright enthusiasts and admirers visit the Administration Building and the SC Johnson campus each year to marvel at architectural landmarks. From the miles of Pyrex glass tubing to the dendriform columns, the Administration Building, one of the few Wright commercial designs to continue to operate in its original state, is truly a unique work of art that reflects the innovation, creation and adventure that is still the spirit of SC Johnson today.
Tours Are Free & Open to the Public: SC Johnson offers three tour programs that provide different views of the company's architecture. Tours are on Fridays and are all free of charge. They include:
All tours also include a visit to The Lily Pad, a gift shop featuring exclusive SC Johnson memorabilia and brand gift merchandise, as well as Wright-inspired items.
For more information on tours of the SC Johnson campus, please call (262) 260-2154, email firstname.lastname@example.com, or use the online scheduling tool at scjohnson.com/visit

According to the Fall 2010 Association TRENDS Finance Survey, meetings account for over 30% of revenue for associations — the greatest non-dues revenue source by far, followed by educational programs (19.6%). And while 7% of surveyed CFOs reported an expected decline in meeting attendance in 2011, 25.9% projected an expected increase in revenue from meetings.
Imagine what that projection would be if members could attend conferences, meetings and training sessions remotely! Consider offering "hybrid meetings," where webcasts and live streams bring members whose schedules or budgets may not enable them to attend in person to the live event. Meetings revenue would dramatically increase.
This can be done efficiently and cost-effectively. You may choose to hire an outside audio-visual company or you may choose instead to invest in a quality video camera and tripod and host the content on your own site. You may even be able to get a company to sponsor the event and offer the services free of charge.
Do not fret; this will not replace in-person attendance. There will always be "butts in seats," because members value the opportunity to assemble, network and generally catch up. Social Media heavyweight Chris Brogan said "Webcasting your event is just another way to get your audience to wish they were there," at the MTO Summit recently.
Here are some tips to implementing hybrid meetings:
- Always have an audio feed into the camera; do not rely on the strength of microphones alone. This is relatively easy to achieve.
- Offer keynote addresses and common sessions online live as they are occurring. Select the most interesting breakout sessions, but do not try to stream all of the sessions presented at the conference.
- Engage remote attendees by incorporating social media into the discussion.
- During breaks, offer special online-only features, maybe a Q&A session where the presenters answer Tweeted questions, or a break out interview with a prominent guest or presenter. You can also engage a few members who are attending in person in discussion about the topic and broadcast the discussion for online viewers.
- Integrate slides and other visuals into the video feed, again, do not rely on images presented at the front of the event to suffice.
- Make sure you have a mobile streaming program, or that your webcast or stream is accessible on mobile platforms.
- Password protect broadcasts to avoid free remote access to the event.
ASAE has compiled this list of associations who have hosted commendable hybrid meetings recently.

Hi all,
instead of introducing myself in the beginners sections I want to do it here and express my gratitude for Grant Campbell for first introducing me to this lifestyle a couple years ago and answering first questions. May, many thanks also to Ruth Heidrich who encouraged me even more to try it- and finally to Anne who kindly shared her thoughts on an all fruit diet with me couple months back.
I read 80/10/10 shortly after going vegan back in 2005. Tried it, back to cooked, tried it again, back to cooked etc. for several reasons. Now I intend to do it again and stay focused and on track. My main motivation: I am a passionate runner and it feels just so, so much better on raw :).
Hence I am an "old newbie" ;-)
After one week now: clearer skin, definetely.
That's for now
Take care
I recently tried and went back to cooked vegan and had the worst experience with vegan cooked food today and decided that (also as an athlete- yoga instructor/passionate about fitness) I need to just bite the bullet and realize that I can and should do this for my body! GOOD LUCK TO YOU on your journey. :]

Baby Boiled Wool Slippers
Perfect toddler slipper. Worth the money.
Love these they stay on and fit perfect. My 18mo old loves her little piggies.
December 14, 2013
Great purchase
These slippers are very comfortable and seem durable for now. We have hard wood floors, and I needed slippers with some traction for my toddler. These are slip resistant and really cute.
December 3, 2013
Elastic way too tight
As another reviewer said, the elastic on these is horribly tight! I ordered a size 18 for my now 9mo. I can hardly get her very-small-for-her-age) feet in to them, she is upset in the process, and within 5 minutes she has terrible elastic marks around her ankles. Unwearable, which is a shame as they are very cute and the wool is nice. Was really hoping I had found a nice pair of warm slippers for her
November 18, 2013
Cute, cozy, comfortable slippers
I bought 3 pairs of these for baby gifts - all look wonderful! I like wool for babies' feet and they look like they will be pretty easy to put on and off. SO cute!
November 14, 2013
The only slipper that stays on!
Love these slippers....my 10 month old son who is crazy active pulls off his socks like it's no one's business...and I am always paranoid that his feet are cold. We live in a cold climate and I feel way better knowing that his feet are toasty. We got these in the bumblebee and the doggie for him and the piglet for my 2 year old daughter. SO CUTE AND THEY STAY ON!!

love it but runs small
I love these slippers..i have been buying the bigger ones for my daughter and they always seemed true to size..These baby slippers seem tiny though! My 9 month baby is wearing a 2t size..he does have a big foot,size 5, but i didn't expect them to be this small

Size 2T is NOT a shoe size. Please indicate what toddler SHOE size your 21 is equivalent to.

text: New Student Orientation at St. John's University kicks off on June 22 this year and a cohort of students, faculty and administrators will be on hand to welcome new students and help guide them in their role as students of St. John's University. During orientation, the students meet fellow classmates, tour the campus, get acquainted with their academic advisors in the Freshman Center, visit the newly constructed Office of Student Financial Services and participate in ice breakers and games as part of their formal introduction to the University. "The program introduces students to their University family and allows them to interact with faculty, staff and administrators who will be instrumental to their success throughout college," says James Salnave, Associate Dean for Student Development. Orientation sessions, which run from June 22 until August 29 on the Queens campus and July 20 until August 26 on the Staten Island campus, are three days of fun and excitement. The first day is University Day, when the new students will hear presentations about the offerings of various departments throughout the University including the Office of Health and Wellness and the Department of Public Safety. The second day is Mission Day, when students are presented with "A Taste of Service" and set out to participate in several community service projects throughout the metropolitan area, including stocking the food pantry at St. John's Bread and Life soup kitchen or watching children at Momma's House, a home for young mothers and their children on Long Island. Once the sun sets, students will dance the night away on the "All Aboard" Spirit of New York boat cruise complete with DJ and two dance clubs. It is a new St. John's tradition to designate the third and last day of orientation as Technology Day. All new students will receive their own state-of-the-art Lenovo ThinkPad X200 laptop and a tutorial of St. John's student portal, St. John's Central. "Orientation gave me a better understanding of the mission and overall objective of St. John's University. It was also a good opportunity to meet current students and participate in a service activity together. You could really tell that students genuinely enjoy community service, and giving back to the community is a large part of being a student here," reflected Adbo Alkaifi, a visual arts major in St. John's College of Liberal Arts and Sciences who will be entering his sophomore year in the fall.Parents and Guardians, You're Welcome Too! Parents and guardians will also have the chance to join their students and live a day in the life of a college freshman during Parent Orientation. This two-day orientation will give parents and guardians an in-depth look at what they can expect during their St. John's student's first year of college and an introduction to the departments that will ensure a smooth transition into college life. For more information about the New Student Orientation, please visit the Orientation Web site or call the Office of New Student Orientation (718) 990-5353.

My research explores the social psychology of technology use. I'm most interested in computer-mediated communication and social media. My research situates technology use in evolving social contexts, addresses novel uses of tools like blogs and social network sites, and explores the effects these technologies have on people's relationships.
I recently published articles in the Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication linking reality television consumption to a range of web2.0 behaviors including blogging, photo and video sharing, Computers in Human Beahvior exploring impression formation and willingness to initiate friendships on social networking sites, and Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Socail Networking applying contingencies of self worth to explain a range of online behavior.
You can see a short video describing the research here and listen to a brief commentary about online photosharing here.

text: Home Culture A Song for Lady Day Half a century after her death, Billie Holiday's music remains a cornerstone of the American songbook. By: Stanley Crouch Posted: July 17 2009 7:23 AM 0 "Billie Holiday was, and still remains, the greatest single musical influence on me. Lady Day is unquestionably the most important influence on American popular singing in the last 20 years." —Frank Sinatra, 1958 Life is ultimately mysterious and indifferent about whom it gives much and from whom it expects a measure equal to its gifts. Those gifts are passed out with the same careless precision as handfuls of chicken feed hurled into a high wind. Billie Holiday was obviously given much more than most, and her talent revealed itself through her intensity, her phrasing and her control of nuance more so than the conventional strengths of big sound, great range and stunning projection. Her voice was small, and her range was equally small. Standing next to most singers, she would never get you to put your money on her, unless you knew in advance that her emotional force and her ability to summon pathos, joy and melancholy with naked precision would demolish almost anyone intent on making a contest out of a hazardous moment on the bandstand with her. There the story of one performance with super virtuoso Sarah Vaughan. Vaughan was so profoundly endowed with a superior instrument that she sometimes could not avoid strutting her stuff to the point of obnoxiousness. But the ax fell. When Vaughan called up "I Cried For You," Holiday whispered, "You done screwed up now, bitch. That's my song." Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

Pet Diet and Nutrition Huntington WV
Huntington, WV
Barboursville, WV
Practitioner's Corner—About Pets: Diet and Nutrition
By Bob and Susan Goldstein
Q: What's the best diet for keeping an animal fit and healthy for a long, long time?
A: A simple method would be to select an all-natural dog or cat food as a base and then add some superior fresh ingredients of your own. The reason you need to supplement is that pet food is processed at a high temperature, which kills off essential vitamins and minerals. Reduce the recommended feeding amount by 25 to 35 percent, and add your own mixture of fresh meat, chicken, or egg yolk (raw or partially cooked to avoid contamination), or tofu, cooked whole grains, and fresh chopped vegetables. We think organic products are best, since even if you use a food with no chemical additives or preservatives, your pet is exposed to environmental toxins simply by living close to the ground and to the floor in your house. So you don't want to add to the animal's toxic load.
Our top recommendation, though, is for a product called Dr. Harvey's Organic Dog (or cat) Food Premix, a blend of organic grains, herbs, vegetables, and nutrients. Because it hasn't been cooked, it contains biologically active vitamins and minerals. It's not a complete food, though, so you still need to add fresh protein, water, and oil. The package instructions will tell you what type and how much.

Olympic hero Daley Thompson's anti-Irish slur a reminder of the bad times -- Black British superstar should really have known better given his race

Daley Thompson (Credit: PA) |
Back in the 1970s and 1980s, anti Irish sentiment in Britain ran high, linked to the IRA campaign in Britain.
It was a very tough time to be Irish there. I worked for close to a year in London in the 1970s and anti-Irish jokes, a steady stream of comedians on TV indicting us as stupid and lazy and a constant sense of being under suspicion when an Irish accent was heard, was part of everyday life.
Those bad old days, post peace process, are gone – but there has been an unwelcome echo of the old days these past few days – and from a very surprising source.
Daley Thompson is roughly the British equivalent of Magic Johnson, a widely adored and respected former athlete who accomplished amazing feats and has had a successful post- sporting career.
He has been honored three times by the Queen and is an official ambassador for the London Olympics. It has long been rumored he will light the Olympic torch at the opening ceremony.
Thompson is also black and he won Olympic gold at two different Olympics. In a country starved of top class athletes, that made him a superstar. The fact that he won them at the decathlon event, one of the toughest events at the games, made his achievement all the greater.
So it is deeply surprising that Thompson jeopardized all that goodwill with the type of racial stereotype that he, a black person, above all, should have been wary of.
Daley, 53, made his screw up on live TV on BBC when he was shown a photograph of a torchbearer with the words 'OYLMPIC torch bearer' (sic) tattooed onto her arm.
Images of the miss-spelt tattoo have gone global on the Internet but Thompson took an anti-Irish stance when he commented on the photo and said: "The tattooist must have been Irish."
Jenny McShannon, chief executive of the Federation of Irish Societies, stated the comment was "unnecessary and totally out of keeping with the spirit of the Olympics."
The BBC issued an official apology and stated, "Daley's comments about this were clearly meant as a joke but we apologize if any offence was caused, it certainly wasn't our intention."
It may cost Thompson the opportunity to light the Olympic torch according to some reports. While that may seem an over reaction to some, Thompson, son of a Nigerian father and Scottish mother, really needs to class up his act if he is chosen for such a role.
Compared to legends like Muhammad Ali, who has lit the flame in the past, he has a very long way to go indeed.

Who can forget Daley Thompson parading around the arena at the 1984 Olympics wearing a T shirt saying "Is the world's 2nd greatest athlete gay?" - a reference to the sexuality of Carl Lewis. He has always been a crass, ignorant bigot.

It was not long ago that the teutonic/nordic master race psychosis was popular in the anglo maintstream. Due to the mass immigration/cheap labor project, this has been made taboo (with only nutbags like the recent Liverpool protesters openly advocating them) but are still unofficially followed and manifest themselves directly and indirectly. The desire to equate the "Celts" with "aryans" (lol) probably played a role in the excess emphasis on the Halstatt culture as the origin of the culture (based upon inaccurate physical descriptions contained in selected Roman texts).

Schon have you actually read the book? It copiously supports the premise and includes and carefully considers the contra theory. The issue will never be 100% proven but the weight of the evidence certainly supports their position.
"'Celtic Culture' is based on Celtic or proto-Celtic language, their art and literature" What is the Celtic literature to which you refer??
What is your definition of what a "Celt" is??? What are the specific genetic markers (both patrilinear and matrilinear)?

Nope, I agree with you regards nationality and race but then you need to put yourself into the mindset of the politically correct English ma ,,, person. 15 years ago a lecturer in one of the northern English universities was awarded £15000 because his colleagues called him 'Paddy'.

curtisjohnson The idea of a 'Celtic Culture' is based on Celtic or proto-Celtic language, their art and literature WRT Cunliffe & Koch, their premise regards the arrival of Indo-European circa 5000BC on the atlantic coast with Celtic language developing and spreading into europe. However, there appears to be a dearth of archaeological evidence to be found in the Iberian Peninsula to support this theory. Languages leave little archaeological evidence. Further, there is an attempt to redefine what a Celt is in the book and the time when the Celtic language developed is ambiguous but slanted towards the pre-Hallstatt D, the Urnfield.

curtisjohnson | Jul 27, 2012, 09:22 PM EDT
Preliminarily, as stated, "Celtic" has never been definitively demonstrated as anything beyond a cultural term. The current thinking is that the Celtic culture spread from the Atlantic zone during the bronze age as evidenced by the publications resulting from the most recent conference of scholars on the issue (reproduced in the 2012 publication by Cunliffe and Koch "Celtic from the West"). The Halstatt region did produce most of the prodigous metal artwork identified with Celtic culture, most likely due to the vast mineral wealth of the area.

WARNING: Extremely Long WALL OF TEXT, you asked for how and whys here you go! Nothing is a Flame here, all intended to be Constructive criticism.
Ok so here goes nothing for the 1000th time:
-Crafting: This system is falling apart we see it, events like these shouldn't break the crafting system if it were balanced.
HOW: How do we make it balanced and more useful?
We make critting perfect chance higher. Wait so basicly now you want everything easy? No not really, the thing is that to get 1 crit if you're a normal player and not cheating you need per average 30 attempts, more or less.
I'm not talking aout those hacking crafters *and yes it's a hack one player bought an unban ticket making public 1 VERSION of it to the GMs in the past but still a LOT of players use other methods * who just get in and u see em craft 4 or 5 perfects in 1 hour...every time...Once ok luck...twice hmm'k * u see where I'm getting at, and don't tell me it's jus luck, the hack exists, it's still out there just like there's still variants of the one hit hack that hasn't been fixed e.g.: go in tg late night and watch getting 1 hit every once in a while in bm+aura*
WHY: Cause if you make critting easier it pays off to actually craft, it balances out having to buy EXPENSIVE materials for many tries, and also when events like these come out you know that even if you fail em here you always have a chance to get em in game if you help eachother out through crafting. In any other game you play crafting is easier than here...mats might be more expensive still you dont try 40 times and get maybe 1 perfect * WITH WRONG AMP...i mean...srsly? wrnog amp??? will get to this later *.
-Drop rates/Quality of Drops:
WHY:I and many players that I know have been playing this game for a very long time, some since beta days, and we know how luck works on drop rate, and quality rate...A person can farm 100 or even 200 times ft1 and drop only crap, and a newb, or more sometimes in prty, can drop eox+8.
Now I know most of the people are touchy when it comes to this subjects objections are made to: yea but this way you want everything to be easy? everyone will be super geared fast and then what happends? Where's the fun in that?
The problem is, that in ANY MMORPG, if you farm 1 to 2 years you will get end game if you're dedicated.
Cabal is the only game i found online that if you farm for even 3 years, you might get a couple of items to be CLOSE to end game, when sum1 else who just does something once drops something really valuable...Where's the fairness in that? People that spam every day dungeons and get same stuff that's worth less...
I dont want to make every1 in the game overpowered, but at the same time we all must agree that once more ppl start getting end game then the fun starts...the real PVP starts, that's where skill matters...You can give us harder dungeons * will talk later * and we need to use brain skills and tactics, not gear...* Like ft2 which took a long time to be cracked *
Now about farming...I've seen people spend days and days, months, getting from 1 to 170 and dropping only crap in pf...and a few drop Mithril amp, and out of those MOST IS WRONG AMP? If i spent 5 months getting from 140 to 170 i should have at least 1 items to prove it...not just the exp...Ok dont wanna do mithril? Implement flippin sigmetal or osmium craft, or W/E you want!! BUT STOP THE FRIGGEN FCH DROP!!!! It is incredible that from Tyrant chest you can drop the same thing you can drop form lv 30 mobs!!!
HOW: You start raising drop rates or better items in general, you remove FCH drops from dungeons above EoD b1f, and let the items that are in between stita and mithril drop more often...Omg but then every1 will be imba? No, everyone will still work hard, but will be rewarded for your hard work, and after you worked hard 2 years you're end game and play WITH SKILL!!!
-Success Rates * e.g.:upgrading your items? *
WHY: Most of the people here will tell you keep persevering, thing is, I've seen1 friend manage to fail 300kk worth of UCMs for his tita item while my other friend can make his own items +7 in a few tries. Now I dont say that it should be A LOT MORE easier...but the success rates are crazy especially for making +7 * Ok I dont care for +8 and above really I'm talking about the normal upgrade rate *
It's not fair that after 1bil worth of UCHH my friend didn't manage to +7 his mithril suit...There's got to be a point that when you've failed to many times the next time you're SURE you're not gonna fail! Why? Cause luck factor in this game is WAY TO MESSED UP, you should have it spread amongst the population not amongst some players...
HOW: Make it so that upgrading doesn't become hell for some players and a walk in the park for others. After certain ammount of tries one should manage, or get something back. Up the rates, and also seriously how is it possible to fail 8 times in a row...and even sometimes fail 3 times in a row from +2 to +3? LoL?
-Wrong Amp Drops:
WHY:Since already dropping something good is hard, and then you figure out it's the wrong amp, you get more frustrated, what's the point?
The game has settled down now...we know the classes that have use of magic and those tht don't, those that can use both * mFs, sFs * and those that are hybrid * fb lol LoL *...But why put wrong amp after 2 years you work hard and end up dropping mithril gloves wi sword amp?
HOW: create parameters in the drop table, and eliminate the useless ones. You don't know which are useless ones because you don't play your own product? Ask the comunity!
WHY:Ok so for about 2 years we've been playing this system and it's been changed to reward both sides...We now realise that there's a need for a bigger league tg, cause they now get over crowded and people can't enter nor relog to help others make the score.
Also We've been playing on the SAME FLIPPING ANNOYING MAP FOR TOO LONG! I don't belive Devs can't make 4 change by day/maps that we can play on...I love the tg system but I know I'm not the only one that gets bored by playing the same map over and over...i mean 1...C'mon?
HOW: Make x-number-of interchangable maps, that can change by day. Make a new TG section for lv 165-170 or something like that * shooting numbers here *...Duno from which level to which but if you don't know cause you don't play your own product Poll the Comunity!!! *Even more than once if ou want to go by exclusion *
WHY: Appart from FT2, which was the last fronteer for Cabal Online, where you actually have to work co-ordinated with your entire team, and think of what you have to do, the rest of the dungeons * maybe apart from CA, FI and aos1* are USELESS. Same repetitive stuff over and over and over...And they're WAY to EASY! It doesn't require thinking or co op. Where's the fun in that? Ok eveyr once in a while you can pop up a soloable easy dungeon, or something like EoD b2f, but other than tht srsly? Don't you get tired?
About bosses, haha they're a laugh, drop rates are pathetic, if you can drop fch and uch from pluma then bah, and ofc these bosses don't require thinking or tactics.
HOW:Make more dungeons that are hard to go through unless you can use the brain, and even there you gotta be strong to do them * aint got gear? If you fix the rates like stated above with hard work you can achieve the gear *. Dunno how to make it more co op? More tactics? As the Comunity!
About Bosses, make harder bosses, like raid bosses that require an entire party, that change attacks depending on % of life, that make you go OMG when you see em. Even instance raid bosses that you can enter only once a day? Same you can do for dungeons...Many successful games used this gimick and it works!
WHY: We've all seen tickets unanswered for months, left asied, merged with someone else tickets even * it happened to me lol *. We know that some Support Fields are more efficient and faster than others, but srsly? Ive seen sshots of people getting answered after 2 months Oo...We shouldn't be pming GMs on forums for this. And also, The answers should be more constructive and differ from case to case, not just copy/paste caus'e we're lazy...
HOW:Don't know how to fix this tbh, change the people working in 1 department untill you see it works 100% ? I don't rly know....Just make it work...
For Tl;dr > rates must be fixed, dungeons must be fixed, tg must be fixed, crafting must be fixed, drops must be fixed, support fixed aswell...If you wanna know Why and How read!
Listen to the comunity to our ideas and push for them to get through. We all know Cabal is going to die soon cause EST is concentrated on other projects, like Cabal II. At least let us die Happy. Make this game enjoyable for those who can't / don't want to transition to Cabal II. Let us have fun! And after almost 4 years, listen to some of these critics that have been repeating!!!
PS: I know there's english mistakes in this post I'll edit em when I'll wake up...

I think drop there.
Well home builder confidence reaching its highest level since April 2006 this is helping to boost housing starts today -- home builder is up nearly 350.
T percent over just the past year so could this boost of confidence send their stock even higher let's ask the chairman CEO and president of -- in enterprises.
Ara Hovnanian and and look let's put this into perspective you were saying everything's relative used to be separate billion dollar market -- now 750 million it's not like -- totally recovered.
Here absolutely -- were thrilled obviously and we're glad for the vote of confidence but we're at the early innings of this recovery.
Our market -- used to -- -- and half billion we're still under a billion we've got a long way to go but we're very very confident and feel good about momentum right now let's get into some basic supply and demand the supply of housing has gone way you weighed down the number of contractors I think we have put.
Up this a full screen if we can't.
We used to have one point six million housing contractors in the United States that of course was that the boom with the market.
Look at to where it's fallen even when you take into account.
All of the lack of interest in housing in recent years still that's a huge drop that needs.
Far fewer houses are being built is that why prices are going up right now well it it absolutely is supply and demand both on the used -- existing home side that supply is coming down.
And then on the new side.
Homebuilders many public builders have gone out of business and many of the private builders have not been able to get capital and are out of the marketplace.
That's an unfortunate thing but it's certainly for those that are surviving those have have a good capital structure it means a lot of opportunity on this recovery.
What was the Darwinian place shakes itself out both the U of course are among the fittest surviving so far can we get shouldn't give us a prediction for 2013.
Boy -- -- me put it in perspective housing starts averaged one point six million per year for decades.
In this downturn we've got down to 500000.
Starts was a 1000006 average 500000 -- everybody's excited today because it's about 850000.
Plus or minus starts.
So that's good it's been a big recovery.
If I had -- to venture a guess I'd say will be approaching the million starts this year.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- But it's also important because the extended or maturity -- We had a big chunk of debt do that was in 2016.
We've extended -- out to 2022021.
That gives us a lot of runway.
Which -- really have this mode of recovery gain momentum to do with a capital's streets of -- and reinvesting it back right now we're buying land all over the country.
We've been buying and we've stepped up a little bit more there are lots of opportunities out.
Yesterday we had Dolly -- -- provincial element -- high end real searched on seven billion in deals over her career.
Saying that she suddenly -- a massive bottleneck in advance of the end of the year because people.
Are so scared about tax implications if we don't have a fiscal -- deal what either way are you seeing that same bottleneck in sales I can't say look.
We're absolutely seeing -- and all the public builders are reporting quarter over quarter improvements that are significant we reporter our quarter just recently.
Up about 44% in dollar volume over the same quarter last year so it's really building up but I don't think it's a year end phenomenon I just think.
We're building momentum people are feeling very good about the housing market in general.
And when you combined -- record low interest rates.
Three and a half percent for thirty year fixed rate mortgage our parents didn't have rates that -- But that was preferences into effect yesterday -- I do I think he's done a fabulous job of really making sure this economy didn't although he has been hurting savers because interest rates are so low -- people on fixed income are really not getting any kind of return.
Which leads me to wonder whether a lot of them are actually buying real estate -- investment do you see.
More investment related real estate right now.
Not on the new home front but -- a helpful phenomenon is on the existing home resale foreclosures and short sales we are seeing some investors there that are buying include.
Both mom and pop investors and sophisticated.
Hedge fund money and private equity money.
Buying the foreclosed homes and then turning them around and renting them and taking the long term perspective not a flip I think that's been helpful to the overall market.
Era both mania and again if you listen this guy a year ago when he came on saying the stock is gonna do well you would have made 350% effect that Barack congratulations thank you hopefully -- -- -- happy holidays we'll see with the new -- absolutely excellent.

French workers protest against Alcatel-Lucent's cost-cutting plans. Photo: Reuters
The global head of telecom equipment maker Alcatel-Lucent has warned the company could "disappear" if it is not allowed to proceed with a global cost-cutting program, as fears of job cuts sparked protests in Paris this week.
Global chief executive Michel Combes, told Europe 1 radio the company's future was at risk if it could not execute the turn-around strategy announced in June.
"Yes, this company can disappear. This company has not earned any money since 2006 and the merger of Alcatel and Lucent. This company has lost between 800 million and 1 billion euros per year", Mr Combes said.

Charles B. Judson: Smith Haughey Rice & Roegge, Traverse City
The Brief: University of Detroit, J.D., 1980
Practice Areas: Alternative Dispute Resolution, Banking and Finance, Bankruptcy, Municipal Law, Real Estate, Tax-exempt Organizations.
Most of the work is contract related, but I try to gear down my practice that week in order to be available if something unplanned comes up. For instance, we've had a demonstration or two at the Open Space by different groups, and I've had to work out a process with the city so that people can express themselves safely. Every year it's different.
I view most of my practice as solving problems. Probably one-third has developed to be mediation and that has been very satisfying. I enjoy helping two opposing viewpoints negotiate a solution as opposed to exaggerating the dispute through litigation.
I'm not comfortable taking credit for the commons but I was the first attorney the board retained. I persuaded the board to initiate a default provision in order to protect the project from a bankruptcy by the first developer. When the developer filed bankruptcy a year later we forced the developer and its creditor to release the commons so that the community could move forward with the current development.

The Following review was contributed by: Molly Martin
Far away, is the edge where the Edgewater River pours incessantly into the abyss below. The headwater for the river is found far away in the dark regions of the Deepwoods. And that is where our tale begins in the Woodtroll village where a mother must ready her youngest child for striking out on his own in the world. Tuntum and Spleda Snatchwood have never told Twig he is not their own child. Now Twig is grown, he will be thirteen on his next birthday. Twig leaves the only home he has known with his mothers words to stay on the path ringing in his ears. Woodtrolls do not leave the path, nevertheless Twig already has a history for wandering away from the path. It does not take Twig long before he realizes he has done it again, the nighttime forest is beautiful. It is also filled with scary sounds and scary things. Twig meets Gyle Goblins, a gabtroll, a prowlgring, Spindlebug and Milchgrubs, blood thirsty wig wigs, and a rotsucker. A halitoad, hoverworm and a boy named Gristle are all there in the woods. Slaughterers, hammelhorn pens, and sleeping in a hammock high in the tree provide a big of respite. Twig is there for the hatching of a caterbird, is saved from a skullpelt, is nearly devoured by a flesh eating bloodoak and makes friends with a banderbear. Sky pirates, termagant trogs, and a gloamglozer round out the assembly of creatures Twig encounters on his journey from the Snatchwood home to cousin Snetterbarks house. Twigs adventures have only just begun. Book 2 continues his adventure.
The Edge Chronicles Beyond the Deepwoods evoke happy memories spent reading and re-reading Frank Baums Oz books. The Edge Chronicles present an unlikely hero in the form of Twig a supposed woodtroll. He sets out on a quest filled with tumult, excitement, and travail. The line drawings gracing the pages of the work are ideal as they add a special depth to the work. Opening the covers of Beyond the Deepwoods brings the reader straight into to the wonder world of The Edge; a detailed map of the locale is presented even before the tale is begun. Beyond the Deepwoods is presented in the style of old time childrens books, obviously author Stewart and illustrator Riddell work very closely together to produce a work sure to charm young people in the target audience and adults alike. The narrative draws reader right into the tale from the introduction as the author sets down some of the places and inhabitants we can expect to face in the story itself. The array of life moves Twig and the reader from zany hazard to crony to horrifying and horrible at a pace allowing little time for Twig or the reader to catch a breath.
Sure to please the target audience of middle grade readers to high school age youngsters The Edge Chronicles will be reached for often for pleasure reading. Beyond the Deepwoods is an excellent choice for reading time as teacher reads aloud following the noontime recess. Youngsters will relish the tale, quiet down for their afternoons work activities and open the book at home later that evening to read more of Twig and his exciting adventures.
Enjoyed the book, while I do not always keep the books sent to me for review: Beyond the Deepwoods is a keeper for my own library. Happy to recommend. Anxious to read more of the series.

War never changes
War, war never changes. It is one of gaming's best-loved catch-phrases. But what does it mean? In what sense does war never change? Certainly, warfare — the ways in which a war is fought — has changed dramatically in the millennia leading up to Fallout's fictional 2050s. Weapons, tactics, scale: every aspect of conflict has undergone transformation. Fallout's world is not that dissimilar to our own and we can safely know as much.
Death and destruction are a staple of war but their scale differs vastly from conflict to conflict. Even the most advanced of energy weapons found in the wasteland is a relic from a past that is being forgotten and a far cry from the nuclear war that caused all the desolation. The game's primitive, back-to-basics setting also suggests that the presumably constant factor may lie much deeper and closer to the roots of conflict than something as superficial as tools and means.
Why do people go to war? Perhaps there is a single fundamental reason underlining all conflicts.

How to enable grid lines in the iOS 7 Camera app
Enabling grid lines in the default Camera app can help make sure your photo is not only straight, but that you're using the rule of thirds in order to capture the most interesting photo you can. In iOS 7, the way you turn grid lines on and off in the Camera app has changed slightly. If you're fumbling around trying to figure out how to turn them on, follow along and we'll help.
- Launch the Settings app from the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad.
- Scroll down and tap on Photos & Camera.
- Again scroll down towards the bottom of the page and under the Camera section, there is an option for Grid. Turn the feature On by tapping on the slider.
That's all there is to it. Grid lines should now be activated inside the native Camera app.
There are 8 comments. Add yours.
Thanks for the reminder. Ended up doing a restore and set up as new, and forgot to enable again.
