"Great location for Sea World"
WE stayed here for a 2 night stay while going to Discovery Cove and Sea World. The rooms were clean, but the beds, pillows, and especially the pull out couch mattress could be a lot more comfortable. However, you can't beat the location and price. There were lots of restaurants, stores, and conveniences very close. We were located less than a mile from […] both parks. We didn't use the pool or free breakfast as we were up and out early and back late. There is a Buffalo Wild Wings and Panera within walking distance. I would stay here again, but bring my own pillows! Ďalšie informácieAutentické hodnotenie zákazníka Hotels.com

Houston, Texas (PRWEB) February 07, 2013
Melabic, the herbal blood sugar stabilizer, is pleased to formally introduce itself to the Canadian public, and that introduction couldnt come at a more opportune time. With yet another new experimental diabetes pill making headlines last week for its potential for heart risks, now is the time for type 2 diabetes sufferers to rise up and take a stand against the prescription drug companies.
Melabic allows them to do just that. It is a 100% all-natural blood sugar stabilizer that has been clinically tested and shown to support healthy glucose levels. Melabic is also the only natural diabetes solution to carry Health Canadas stamp of approval.
Melabic is officially licensed with Health Canada and its NPN is 80026818.
http://webprod3.hc-sc.gc.ca/lnhpd-bdpsnh/info.do?lang=eng&licence=80026818 [1]
In early January, the Bloomberg news outlet ran the headline J&J Diabetes Pill May Have Heart Risks, FDA Staff Says (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-01-08/j-j-diabetes-pill-may-have-hear... [2]). The article went on to reveal that the drug canagliflozin, manufactured by Johnson & Johnson, showed a potentially higher risk for heart events in the first 30 days compared with a placebo. That discovery will likely delay the medications entry into the prescription drug market, but it is hardly the first incident of its kind.
In 2010, some FDA staff reviewers spoke out in favor of the diabetes drug Avandia being pulled from the market. Why? According to an ABC report (http://abcnews.go.com/Health/DiabetesNews/avandia-off-market-fda-staff/s... [3]), it was because of the serious cardiovascular risk the diabetes drug poses. The scary part for the diabetic public is that such clamoring for removal occurred after the medication had reached the marketplace, meaning hundreds of thousands of diabetes sufferers had already had their hearts put at risk.
Unlike these prescription medications, Melabic has no known side effects. And, in fact, because it controls diabetes the all natural way, it actually helps to reverse cardiovascular risk factors as opposed to confounding them. Manufactured under strict FDA guidelines, Melabic supports healthy blood sugar levels and normal insulin function. Best of all, it costs about just 80 cents per day. Melabic is available in Canada at Walmart, Overwaitea, Save on Foods, Loblaws, Lawton Drugs and Sobeys, with new retail outlets being added monthly.

· The Department welcomes one new colleague as regular faculty member, starting in August 2012: Dr. Bryan Bannon joins as an Assistant Professor of Philosophy, with specializations in Ethics, Environmental Philosophy, Contemporary European Philosophy, and Modern Philosophy. Bryan's joining the program boots its existing strength especially in ethics, applied ethics, and continental philosophy, and adds the important research and teaching focus of environmental ethics and philosophy to its BA and MA in philosophy.
· The Department embarked on the philosophy pilot project for the UNF First Year Experience, which includes the requirement of taking one General Education philosophy course by each incoming freshman. The Department developed the project in cooperation with COAS Dean Barb Hetrick, Undergraduate Dean Jeff Coker, and COAS Associate Dean David Fenner. While all students at UNF are required to take one course in philosophy as part of the General Education Curriculum, this new course is based on the Reflective Judgment Model and meets students with philosophical education right at the outset in the first term of their college experience.
· The Department implemented a new BA in Religious Studies in Fall 2012! This new timely and important BA has been made possible in large part by the work of Religious Studies Coordinator Julie Ingersoll, and is geared toward the comprehensive and comparative study of all major religious traditions.
· The Department received a $12,000 Engaged Department Grant from UNF's Center for Community-based Transformational Learning. Those grants are given to Departments with a critical mass of courses in development that will include community experiences for students as part of their content. The Department's project makes use of the multiple community connections that arise from its emphasis on applied ethics, social and political philosophy, as well as its religious studies program.

In All Its Cool and Colorful Glory, Autumn Officially Arrives Sept. 22
Expect the leaves to start changing colors soon around Howard County.
In spite of summer-like temperatures this week, cooler temperatures, shorter days and colorful foliage are on the way. Autumn officially arrives on Sunday, Sept. 22, at 4:44 p.m. to be exact, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac.
Astrologically speaking—since it can also be measured methodologically—the seasons begin with either an equinox in the fall and spring, or with a solstice in the summer and winter. According to the Old Farmer's Almanac, Sunday the sun will rise and set on the celestial equator. In other words, the sun will rise exactly East and set exactly West.
Although the days will get shorter with earlier sunsets, daylight saving time won't turn clocks back an hour until Nov. 3 at 2 a.m.
In Maryland, one of the most obvious signs of fall is the changing colors of the trees. So where do the colors come from?
Shorter days alert the trees to prepare for winter, according to the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR). They begin to shut down and the green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves, bringing out the yellow and orange colors we associate with the season.
The bright reds and purples seen in some species – maples, for example – are the result of glucose getting trapped in the leaves, and the shorter days and the cooler nights turn it a vivid scarlet color. The brown color seen in oaks is a consequence of waste products being left in the leaves, according to DNR.
Maryland DNR Forest Ranger Beth Sanders said that leaves will start to change after the first hard frost.
"I've already seen some Poplars starting to turn, a little bit in the Walnuts," Sanders told Patch. "But you won't see the Oaks turning 'til after a hard frost."
Sanders said that the peak times change each year because when trees turn depends on temperature and moisture levels.
"We're in a little dry spell right now so many times that means the leaves won't be as colorful," Sanders said.
Want to know the best places to see the beautiful colors of fall? Check out theDNR Fall Foliage and Festival Hotline to see where tree colors are peaking and what park festivals are taking place around the state.

Oh Trinie, you are so welcome! I missed you a whole lot too! We need to talk sometimes ok?
Actually, in my opinion, I think Nicky might have a botox injection maybe a short time before that picture is taken with Jimmy. From what I know about botox injection (not from personal experience! ) it sort of makes the muscles not responsive to the nerves, hence reduces wrinkle lines. But this also makes the muscles look stiff as it would not move where it suppose to move when a person smiles. I think that's why the face will look stiff. But then, I am no expert and I could be WRONG!

The only sound more comforting than the ocean setting on your child's sound machine is the happy buzz of siblings playing together.So we can only imagine Jed and Marne Ackerman's parents think they're listening to a symphony. The brother/sister team behind men's line Jed & Marne just launched their second business, Neen Yo.Building on their collaboration with Mayan master weavers in Guatemala, they've shrunk their grown-up shorts for the playground set. Expect the same dyed color combinations flawlessly constructed on foot looms but sized for kids 8 and under. Neen Yo also includes swingy dresses for girls with three-button necklines and two front pockets.But the real beauty of the collection is that Jed and Marne provide living wages, humane working conditions, and a future for artisan communities in Guatemala.We can hear their parents kvelling.Available at jedandmarne.com, $50-$78.Photo: Courtesy of Jed & Marne

Slim Stretch Jeans - Regular
Run large
After getting these off backorder, I was disappointed that they ran too big. Then, when I tried to exchange, they were out of stock. Cute, nice quality, but order one size smaller than you need!
December 3, 2013
Perfect Jeans!
I love these jeans! I bought the snow leopard print and receive compliments everytime I wear them. I am 5'5", 130 lbs and bought a size 6. I think the fit is great. There is a small gap in the back waist area, but all of my jeans fit like that.
December 3, 2013
Great fit & Length
I ordered the Rhododendron color and they fit beautifully and the length is perfect. The color is unusual, and can be dressed up or down. They wash up great.
December 3, 2013
Perfect Jeans!
These jeans were a perfect fit and perfect color, love them.
November 29, 2013
When I first put on these jeans I was so happy. They fit great and good quality. But I can't go an entire day wearing them because they stretch waaay too much: they end up baggy and saggy. I am 5'7" and 127 lbs: the size 4s were too tight; I bought size 6 but, like I said, I can't wear them because of stretching.
November 26, 2013
Cute jeans
These jeans are cute, but please note I think they run a little on the big size. If I had to do it over again, I would order one size down.
I ordered the burnt sienna and it will be a great color for the fall/winter.

Michelle Obama says serving as First Lady is as close to the Oval Office as she's going to get.
A student at a "Take your Child To Work Day" event at the White House asked the First Lady if she would consider running for president.
Mrs. Obama gave an enthusiastic no.
"Absolutely not. No. Being president is a really hard job. And it's an important job. And when my husband is running for president, we're right in there. We're serving too. And once his terms are over, we'll go on to do other important things. There are so many ways you can help this country even if you're not president of the United States."
Another child asked her what she would change about being the First Lady.
Mrs. Obama says she would like to be able to leave the White House without a security entourage and motorcade.

This group is for anyone interested in reading and brews (of the coffee and craft beer variety). I am new to Dallas and would love to start a group that combines both a book club and the enjoyment of coffee/beer.

When it comes to personalizing their weddings, some bridal couples include their pets — Fido is a big part of the family, after all! This decision should not be taken lightly and preparation is the key.
Dear Wedding Guru: "Please don't call me nutty, but my standard poodle, Jake, is very much a part of my family and I'd like to include him in my wedding as a 'pet of honor.' Is it okay to do this? What advice could you give me in order to prepare and help make this possible in a positive way?"

Martian soil may be less Earthlike and less hospitable to life than researchers believed.
NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander has found traces of perchlorate in two soil samples analyzed during the past month, the space agency announced today. The results appeared to be the same ones rumored this weekend by AviationWeek.com to have been seen by the White House and to reflect Mars's habitability for life.
Perchlorate, or ClO4, is a naturally occurring and man-made chemical that is the primary ingredient in solid rocket fuel, according to the EPA. Where such a contaminant might have come from is unclear. The fuel in the thrusters that Phoenix used to land on Mars was made of hydrazine, not perchlorate.
The presence of such a chemically reactive compound in Martian soil would seem to make that soil less supportive of life. Here on Earth, high doses of perchlorate can interfere with thyroid hormone production, which can harm babies in the womb.
Phoenix's MECA wet chemistry experiment detected the chemical. NASA said the Phoenix team was waiting for the craft's gas analyzer, TEGA, to confirm the finding. The agency said that results from a TEGA experiment on Sunday, which analyzed a sample take from directly above the soil's ice layer, did not detect perchlorate.
"This is surprising since an earlier TEGA measurement of surface materials was consistent with but not conclusive of the presence of perchlorate," Peter Smith, Phoenix's principal investigator at the University of Arizona, Tucson, said in the NASA statement.
NASA said the team is also working to confirm that the chemical was not a stow-away from Earth that crept into the instruments or the samples. The agency said it would provide further information tomorrow afternoon.

They say perchlorate comes from the exhaust of rocket engines. Maybe It someones old landing site.

Mr Anderson
Maybe we weren't the first ones there!
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisNice to know such a powerful oxidizer is present on Mars. That much "kicking power" wouldn't have to get shuttled there. A chemically Inert Mars would be worse news.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisNow, does that mean that we could use the perchlorate in Martian soil to produce rocket fuel? If so, could that be used to our advantage, perhaps by manufacturing fuel on Mars for other, further out journeys or the return voyage home? Or could the possible abundance of perchlorate be useful in other ways? Perhaps to somehow be used as a power source on Mars? How does perchlorate figure in the manufacture of rocket fuel? If it truly is the "primary ingredient" of rocket fuel then clearly it may have some energetic potential. If so, that could help justify more extended missions to Mars, perhaps even the construction of human habitations. I mean, if it was coal and not perchlorate then, regardless of the environmental consequences, I suspect THAT would excite some interest... or am I just too stupid to understand this stuff? If Mars can't really support life in its natural environment then that would relieve us of any concern over what our toxic emissions could do to the environment. We could live in sealed "biodome" type structures and befoul the environment with perchlorate emissions all we want to. I'd like to take this time to publicly stake the first claim to a perchlorate mine on the planet Mars. There's gotta be some sort of profit there, that's all I'm saying.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisPerchlorate certainly is harmful to Earth-life, but does it really discourage the idea of life on Mars?
Consider that any life which developed independently on Mars might have a completely different metabolism from Earth-life. On Earth, photosynthetic lifeforms produce the highly oxidizing gas O2. Who's to say an alien metabolism wouldn't produce ClO4 in a comparable process?
What's really interesting is that there are several species of bacteria on Earth that can use perchlorate as an oxidizer in place of O2 (The journal Nature offers a nice overview, if you happen to have a subscription or be on a college campus: www.nature.com/nrmicro/journal/v2/n7/execsumm/nrmicro926.html). If perchlorate does turn out to be abundant on Mars, then it seems to me there's a real possibility for the existence of past or present complex microorganisms in the soil.
Perchlorate is harmful to the human thyroids ability to absorb iodine.
Not exactly harmful to all life forms is that?
Reporting seems to recycle the first idiot response to come along infinately. As long as the idiot response backs the no life hypothesis. Curious isn't it?
Is it just coincidental that the Atacama Desert where naturally formed perchlorate is found has also used by NASA as a local test-site alternative to Mars? Could the detection of perchlorate be an anomaly resulting from contamination of the Lander by soil from Atacama?
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisNice comments & ideas :), keep it up & running. Moreover, the tested soil area on Mars is still so limited to whole Mars land. So, other places on Mars could be not Contaminated with this Perchlorate!
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisPerchlorate is naturally occurring. This is from the USGS site:
High Nitrate in the Desert? What's Going On?
Desert vegetation at the Amargosa Desert Research Site
Amargosa Desert, Nevada
USGS scientists and their colleagues have unexpectedly found large concentrations of nitrate in desert subsoils. ..(shortened by me). However, the nitrate recently found is within a few meters of land surface and below the biologically active root zone. Contrary to conventional wisdom, small amounts of naturally occurring nitrate appear to have been leaching from soil layers and accumulating for thousands of years in the unsaturated zones of arid regions.
Three points, 1. Would this oxidizing agent explain the anomalous Viking lander (1976) which seemed to indicate life in the sugar oxidation experiment?
2. As unusual as this oxidizing agent is it doesn't argue against the presence of life on Mars. Many unusual oxidizing agents are used by Earth organisms (Nitrate, Ferric Iron). 3. It would appear that two major barriers to colonizing Mars are no longer a problem. Both water and abundant oxygen have been found,
Three Points. 1) Would the presence of this oxidizing agent explain the anomalous data from the 1976 Viking lander that seemed to indicate life in the sugar oxidation experiment? 2) The presence of perchlorate does not argue against the presence of life on Mars, many earth organisms use novel oxidizing agents (Nitrate, Sulfate, Ferric Iron). 3) It would seem that two barriers to the colonization of Mars have been eliminated with the discovery of water and abundant oxygen which could be recovered from perchlorate.

It wasn't so much the lack of information, or the connectivity, or even the incredibly low transaction costs; it was the silence. That deafening silence.
When I left the trading floor (for the first time) and began trading as a retail trader, there were a lot of changes I had to get used to. But really it was the silence and lack of communication that was the toughest thing.
On the trading floor, when some market-moving news came out I could hear the roar from the SPX pit, just 100 feet away, erupt in a flurry of activity. That's when I knew something was going on it was time to trade 'em up.
There was a lot of support on the trading floor among my peers too. If I ever had any question (really, about anything trading related) I had 1,000 of my closest trader-friends standing around me that I could ask. There was safety in numbers. But sitting alone in my office behind my computer after leaving the floor made it a lot harder. No information from the crowd. No support group. I was going it alone and that's how I felt: Alone.
This is also some of the feedback I get from my students over and over again. It's hard to go it alone. So we at Market Taker Mentoring are creating an Elite Trader Community just for our traders: just for YOU.
In a few weeks, we'll launch a state of the art Trader Community. I can't show you anything from it yet (It's still TOP SECRET!). But we'll be unveiling it in just a couple weeks. So keep an eye out for more information.
In the meantime, we could use your help. We'd really appreciate if you fill out this super short, 5-question survey below…

"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" may not have been the first animated film, but as author and film historian J.B. Kaufman points out, Walt Disney "completely redefined the concept of what an animated feature could be" with his 1937 film, celebrating 75 years this December.
San Antonio's two period-instrument early music ensembles will join forces to present a concert that traces the evolution of musical styles from the Renaissance to the Baroque. Ensemble Cazona performs on copies of Renaissance-era recorders. Retablo will perform music of the 18th century using Baroque recorder and traverso with viola da gamba, harpsichord, and theorbo. This concert will take place at 3:00 on Sunday, November 25, in the Chapel of the Incarnate Word on the campus of Incarnate Word University located at 4301 Broadway. This event is free and open to the public.

Hundreds of veterans filled the Freeman Coliseum's Expo Hall this week looking for work. The Texas Workforce Commission held a job fair specially tailored to those converting military experience into civilian jobs.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, veterans who have served since 9/11 are experiencing an unemployment rate of 10 percent, slightly higher than the civilian rate.
The Texas Workforce Commission is actively trying to get these veterans back into work.
San Antonio's bike share program is expanding into the South Side with several new B-cycle kiosks around the Missions.
Cyclists rode to Mission San Jose to illustrate the new availability of B-cycle just south of downtown; six new stations have been added at some of San Antonio's Mission's along the Mission Reach.
Air Force officials are processing evidence from an Article 32 hearing against another Military Training Instructor at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland.
The government is seeking to charge Staff Sgt. Donald Davis with aggravated sexual contact with a trainee, and with having a sexual relationship with a second.
During a recent tour of district 6, Councilman Ray Lopez stopped by several homes where volunteers were helping Rebuilding Together San Antonio, a local non-profit. Disabled and impoverished residents qualify for the work because they can't do it themselves, and the organization attempts to work on 10 houses each year.
"I think we all recognize that there is a lot of work to be done in this community," Lopez said to them.
The Daughters of the Republic of Texas are responding to the bizarre incident that called San Antonio Police to the shrine Thursday morning. DRT President Karen Thompson said there will be a full investigation; the Texas Declaration of Independence is apparently missing from the Alamo.
Following a report that artifacts were missing, Thompson assured people there would be a formal inquiry and the DRT would fully cooperate with law enforcement officials.
In the 3 sonatas of Opus 10, Ludwig van Beethoven was making a statement about his pianistic abilities, and one thing he knew that would certainly attract attention was contrast. The composer asks for double fortes, throws in unexpected rests, and invents the heroic funeral movement that he would exploit in future symphonies. This is all in the third sonata in D Major.

Some 85% of American adults own a cell phone, and these mobile devices now play a central role in many aspects of their owners' lives according to a new survey. For many cell owners, their phone is an essential utility that they check frequently, keep close at all times, and would have trouble functioning without:
Despite this connection to their devices, most cell owners don't worry too much (or get many complaints from their friends) about spending too much time with their phones:
Indeed, many cell owners hear complaints from friends that they don't devote enough time to monitoring their mobile communications:
"In a nutshell, this is the modern dilemma: There is pronounced social pressure for people to stay connected and respond quickly to the incoming blizzard of contact from others. At the same time, many people wish they could disengage every once in a while," said Aaron Smith, research associate and lead author of the report. "The challenge is for people to manage their time and their contacts in a way that gives them oases of peace and quiet, without being so disconnected that they miss out on important social moments."
The results reported here come from a nationwide survey of 2,254 adults (age 18 and older) between March 15-April 3, 2012, including interviews on landline and cell phones and conducted in English and Spanish. The overall sample has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.4 percentage points. Some 1,954 cell users were interviewed in this sample and many of the results published here involve that subset of users. The margin of error for data involving cell users is plus or minus 2.6 percentage points. General ownership figures for cell phones and smartphones come from a nationwide survey of 3,014 adults (age 18 and older) between August 7-September 6, 2012, including interviews on landline and cell phones and conducted in English and Spanish.

real fruit. simple ingredients. not a lot of sugar.
NEW YORK, Oct. 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- siggi's is excited to announce the launch of their first kids' product line: siggi's squeezable, yogurt tubes. The new line adheres to siggi's commitment to low sugar, high protein & simple ingredients, and is available in three flavors: strawberry, blueberry, and raspberry.
siggi's is proud to offer a healthy alternative for kids:
"Added sugar in various forms is way too prevalent in children's diets today, even in normally healthy items such as yogurt," says Siggi Hilmarsson, founder of siggi's dairy. "siggi's was founded on the principle of creating, authentic, healthy yogurts that are low in sugar and contain simple, no-nonsense, ingredients. We are thrilled to now add a much-needed kids' option to our line up."
siggi's squeezable, low-fat yogurt tubes are available nationwide. The kids product line comes as an addition to the siggi's classic skyr yogurt, filmjölk drinkable yogurt, and probiotic drinkable yogurt.
For more information, please go to: siggisdairy.com
A little more about siggi's dairy
siggi's dairy was founded on a commitment to offer yogurt products that are low in sugar with simple ingredients. siggi's products offer the highest ratio of protein to sugar of any natural flavored yogurt.
The story of siggi's started in New York in 2004, when Siggi Hilmarsson became homesick for a staple of his childhood diet from Iceland: skyr yogurt. Only finding overly-sweeten versions in the US, Siggi took matters into his own hands and made siggi's first batch in his apartment kitchen. After months of experiments, the skyr showed enough promise and soon moved from Siggi's kitchen to a local agricultural college in upstate New York, where the first 'professional' batch of siggi's was made. From kitchen to dairy plant, and from local markets to national distribution, demand for the siggi's yogurt grew quickly, and as the siggi's team grew, so did the family of products.
Currently, siggi's is distributed nationally and available in supermarkets such as Whole Foods, Target, Wegman's, HEB, Hy-Vee, and many other fine stores. For detailed distribution, please go to: siggisdairy.com

Borrowers basically to sell and basically have the bank forgive their loan right up in the beginning it's called the short sales -- also known as -- pre foreclosure sales and -- JPMorgan Chase is doing at Bank of America is doing it.
And basically other banks are tacking -- like Wells Fargo and what we're seeing is this is a big ship because ordinarily the banks saying wait a second we don't want to forgive loans up -- we don't wanna do this -- -- -- trigger strategic defaults now they're saying.
Look at for closer process is too scary too many DC regulators piling in.

A year is up 25% vs a year earlier that's a three year high and you're seeing the prices a housing prices coming down and short sales.
27 year highs this year -- rather -- -- so long was it because of the mortgage Solomon and the year all the lawsuits all the attorney generals across the country yeah asset -- so long but -- -- taken off in places like New York Colorado New Jersey and Florida got to tell -- something -- the foreclosure process is really difficult for banks so they are weighing in the -- this thing you know what we're -- is gonna forgive these loans upfront forgive a portion and to -- -- -- numbers -- striking -- sixteen.

Have you or someone else noticed part of your body tensing up or jerking on occasion? Do you have short periods when you feel confused, have memory loss, or appear to act unusual? Are you sometimes unaware of your actions or do you even pass out for a few moments? If so, you may be experiencing partial seizures. These occur when you have a condition called epilepsy. Partial seizures can be scary and frustrating. The good news is that they can usually be controlled.
Your brain uses short bursts of electricity as signals. These signals allow areas of the brain to communicate with each other. These signals also travel from the brain to the rest of your body.
Sometimes the signals become excessive. When this happens in one area of the brain, it is called a partial seizure. The excessive signals cause part of the body to shut down. Then you may twitch, feel confused, or pass out for a moment. Partial seizures can present in many ways. Simple partial seizures often have only a few minor symptoms, such as hand twitching or smelling an unusual odor. Complex partial seizures are often associated with more abnormal behavior. They may also affect your mental functioning to some degree. You may have a lowered level of consciousness or loss of memory.
Seizures can be caused by irritation or damage to the brain from trauma, scar formation, tumors, stroke, or infection. Usually the cause is unknown. However, most partial seizures can be successfully treated. With treatment, most people with seizures lead normal, fulfilling lives.

Dyno result teaser, note! This was not WOT, because I could not get the tire to stop slipping on the roller, so I had to lay into the pull very softly, and it's drag is setup for a full weight motorcycle with full motorcycle aero drag. It's a teaser because I only let you see to 42mph It pulls past 100mph.
