clean room,quiet,good breakfast,very good reception desk,close to strip mall and restaurants...good location...would stay again
poor wi-fi connection
The hotel, and bedding was very fresh & clean smelling, and cleaning staff very friendly.
The front desk operator/manager (on our arrival) was not overly accommodating and seemed distracted, therefore did not deal with a few small issues we had in a decent, sufficient manner.
Good value, friendly staff, adequate breakfast
Not much natural light in the room, noisy air conditioner, noisy kids early in the morning.
The facilities are not bad
The staff were coldness.The wifi is so bad.
Quiet and clean place
Fitness machines did not work in fitness room. Reception desk clerks did not always seem happy to see guests.
Could hear people upstairs (so noisy being on ground level). Sauna not working Exercise treadmill not working Very small room
nice size room and bed.
no dislikes.
Every thing
More sanitary items
Very freindly and helping staff. We enjoyed the short stay.
Great place, clean, location is good, great price comfortable rooms
I was not impressed that the smallish pool was being used every time we went down there by a young lady teaching swimming lessons. The pool is small, so our kids felt like they had to watch out for her small students and they didn't feel like they could have much fun. One time, a student was screaming for about 20 minutes straight was completely hysterical, and it was very uncomfortable for paying guests to have to endure this. Not cool! The pool is really important to us, our kids love to use one everywhere we stay. We won't come back here if this program continues...it takes away from our enjoyment too much. Sorry Best Western Peach Arch. You made a mistake!
Upgraded best western within ten miles for same rate, better deal for the money
very near US border helpful night staff very nice kitchenette and room pecan tart for breakfast! fantastic tea selection at breakfast
would be nice to have some real butter at the breakfast?
Good location. Good value
morning staff help correct mix up of pricing of one of the five rooms our family had booked
no choice of thickness/softness of pillows- 8 pillows on the two beds but all were the same thickness The floors in main areas did not seem very clean and the carpets looked old and dirty
The room was a good size and the beds were comfortable. We especially liked the coffee maker!
Hot tub was closed while we were there. Boo...
Great location and dog friendly was a plus.
Only complaint was a used towel was left hanging on the back of the bathroom door.
Indifferent staff Room smelled Tv didn't work
TV did not work
Location, cleanliness, staff. Rooms are small but adequate for up to 4 with 2 queen beds. Room was spotless and well-equipped with the usual motel amenities. Nice breakfast included with many choices -- waffle mix and waffle iron, dry cereals, fruit, yogurt, milk, fruit juice, toast, coffee, tea, and so on.
White Rock is just down the road and is a pleasant place to visit. Hotel itself was fine. Breakfast was simple, but good and FREE, which adds to the hotel's value especially when compared to other local accommodation.
Area dedicated to breakfast was small (just a few tables) and so was very busy at peak times.
I thought the morning desk agent was friendly and helpful.
The fact that the TV didn't work and I was travelling with 3 teens. When reported, the front desk clerk merely said "ok" and nothing more. The continental breakfast wasn't restocked at all. The sauna was not working.
Good Best Western Standard.
Very crowded in lobby at breakfast time. Not very easy exit for cars.
I appreciate if you can improve your breakfast, such as fired eggs. I'll back to check it. :) thank you.

New Tippmann/US army marker Pictures and more info tomorrow
Posted 31 May 2009 - 09:07 AM
"Last week Tippmann launched the TPX Paintball Pistol; next week U.S. Army Paintball has something new.
Just to peak your interest, this new marker is:
· Customizable, upgradable and affordable
· Durable, reliable and of course, made by Tippmann
· What the scenario player wanted next from U.S. Army Paintball
Here are just a few of the comments from some of the players that have seen this new marker
This marker is going to turn some heads. I believe this marker is taking customization to the next level. With the huge popularity of Military First Person Shooters like Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare and Ghost Recon, this is the look players have been waiting for.
That looks AMAZING! A lower-priced marker that can be modded almost limitlessly? I cant imagine why Tippmann wont sell a million of them!
Wow! Another head-turner so quickly. Visually very impressive. A great way to draw new players in, or encourage people to expand their marker collection.
We look forward to sharing this release with you on Monday."
looks exciting, eh? Unless it completly blows my mind though, I dont intend to buy it, for I am saving up for a pump.

For Peace
Tonight; let there be peace
Let all killings and violence end
All hate, just let it cease
Instead of a foe, let's be a friend.
Let all guns and bombs fall silent
Let the embers of all hate burn out
To one and another let's not be violent
Let hatred, be our last bout.
Let all greed die and turn cold
Allow prosperity and care to thrive
Compassion and charity let us behold
Let us not, only survive.
Tonight; let there be a truce
Let us together end all hostilities
Let's not accept hedonism or abuse
Just imagine, the wonderful possibilities.

I think maybe..but some more selling is likely
Heavy selling again today but the volume tailed off and buyers came in. Are they done or waiting for it to get to 56 to hammer back down again? Whatever, at least the smell of panic is gone.
$52 Sure looked like the bottom to me! I would be surprised to see it again anytime soon. jmho
Not yet, the VIX has not peaked.
Enlighten me... whats the VIX? What does that indicate?

General Snus is the flagship brand of Swedish Match and the top selling brand of snus in the world. Full of the classic General taste, this is a powerful and elegant portion snus with peppery notes, hints of citrus zest and a balanced tobacco taste.
There is a reason that this is the best selling snus, and all other snus is compared to it: it is a definitive snus when it comes to flavor. It lands square in the center, with not too much or too little of anything, just tobacco, a bit of citrus and tiny hints of smoky, salty goodness. While it isn't the snus I use the most often, it never disappoints. It is kind of like the Coke of snus, the default choice if you don't know what you want, knowing you can't go wrong if you choose it.
If you haven't tried, you pretty much have to. I like to change up my snus flavors quite a bit, and eventually get tired (or sick) of a flavor after a roll or two, but not with General. It has been a staple in my always changing line up for 5 years now.
Quite possibly one of my new favorite all around snuses, very good and long lasting flavor!
General products are, well, phenomenal! General was the first Snus I tried several months ago as it is available in a retail stores in the U.S. General Mint rapidly became a favorite, but I have moved more to the straight tobacco flavor Snus products. General Original is a best seller for a good reason. It is very solid with a peppery taste. Lasts a good amount of time with slightly more drip than I get from Grov or Ettan. This product is definitely in my rotation now, although I do prefer Grov or Ettan by a slight margin. Personal preference, though. If you buy this Snus, you absolutely cannot go wrong!
What can one say about the general that has not already been said. It was my first introduction to real Swedish snus. It knocked me on my rear initially but was good nevertheless. The peppery notes are unique in this snus and give it a distinctive taste. The more subtle lemon flavor mixes well and is more prevalent than other citrus snus. Its not my favorite but its definitely one I have in the freezer at all times. The white portion is a great beginner snus.
This is the first Swedish Snus I tried. It has a pretty good flavor that is peppery and citrusy, comparable to General Onyx but Onyx is crisper and in my opinion much better. The taste of this one also reminded me of Copenhagen snuff.
It's pretty decent but Onyx is basically a better tasting, better feeling snus.
What needs to be said about general a citrus peppery tobacco flavor. A classic and always in my order. Not my favorite but a staple.

I think it is normal for us to turn to the Divine when tragedy or great anxiety strikes us like a cold punch to the gut. There is certainly nothing wrong with asking for help when we have a special need or a dear one who suffers. But what about those times in between the tears and pain? "Good times, noodle salad", as Jack Nicholson said in the movie As Good as it Gets. What about those days when the sun rises on an inner tranquility that is directionless, but pleasant?
It seems to me that those precious few days which we can enjoy without pain or overwhelming strife should be celebrated, but also used to charge our spiritual batteries for the inevitable return to the struggle of being human. Unlike some religious communities, I think it is safe to say that Johannites are focused on improving our ability to commune with God right here, right now; not just when we pass into the next dimension of our existence. Gnosis is not just something that happens to other people or to saints.
It was this very idea which St. Gregory Palamas, who is remembered on November 14 in the Johannite Liturgical Calendar, held so dearly that he risked excommunication. St. Gregory believed that through mindfulness, contemplation and prayer, we cannot come to know the essence of God, but we can know the energies of the Divine. Since its feast in August, I have been drawn to the Transfiguration of Jesus on Mount Tabor, when he glowed and hovered in the air with Moses and Elias. Palamas wrote about the Transfiguration, describing it as the "uncreated light of God"[1], which was seen by the apostles John, James and Peter.
So this is the thing–That's a very different way of describing what otherwise seems like a supernatural fun fest. Think about it–The apostles could see the uncreated light of God for the first time. They had eyes to see. Those of you who attend Johannite Mass will remember the words spoken by the deacon or priest before the gospel reading: "Many prophets and righteous men have desired to see the things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear the things which you hear, and have not heard them."[2]
Palamas asserted that anyone can have these eyes to see the uncreated light, that is, anyone can commune with the energies of the Divine. He taught that there are three requisites for this sight.
(1.) A change of heart (metanoia, to think differently of our actions and our thoughts after contemplating them)
(2.) Spiritual discipline (Make a spiritual routine in your day and stick to it)
(3.) Contemplative prayer (freestyle, conversation, not repetitive for this purpose)
Now that we know how St. Gregory recommends us to fan up the flames of our spiritual lives, he recommends some big guns to help us on the way.
Hence, as it was through the Theotokos alone that the Lord came to us, appeared upon earth and lived among men, being invisible to all before this time, so likewise in the endless age to come, without her mediation, every emanation of illuminating divine light, every revelation of the mysteries of the Godhead, every form of spiritual gift, will exceed the capacity of every created being. She alone has received the all-pervading fullness of Him that filleth all things, and through her all may now contain it, for she dispenses it according to the power of each, in proportion and to the degree of the purity of each. Hence she is the treasury and overseer of the riches of the Godhead. For it is an everlasting ordinance in the heavens that the inferior partake of what lies beyond being, by the mediation of the superior, and the Virgin Mother is incomparably superior to all. It is through her that as many as partake of God do partake, and as many as know God understand her to be the enclosure of the Uncontainable One, and as many as hymn God praise her together with Him. She is the cause of what came before her, the champion of what came after her and the agent of things eternal. She is the substance of the prophets, the principle of the apostles, the firm foundation of the martyrs and the premise of the teachers of the Church . She is the glory of those upon earth, the joy of celestial beings, the adornment of all creation. She is the beginning and the source and root of unutterable good things; she is the summit and consummation of everything holy.[3]
You really cannot get a better recommendation than that, so if you have a few good days to spare, try making a routine for yourself. Try praying with icons or other souvenirs of the likeness of the Blessed Mother, even if it is just 10 minutes in the morning before you rush into the world, or 15 minutes before you go to bed.
As St. Gregory wrote, "She only is the frontier between created and uncreated nature, and there is no man that shall come to God except he be truly illumined through her, that Lamp truly radiant with divinity, even as the Prophet says, "God is in the midst of her, she shall not be shaken'(Ps. 45:5)."
Good times, noodle salad.

Approach with caution
Yellow Dog Project uses coloured ribbons to signal that a dog may not be sociable
In 1973, Tony Orlando and Dawn scored a worldwide hit with the song Tie a Yellow Ribbon.
It tells the tear-jerking story of a just-released prisoner who writes his love and begs her to tie a yellow ribbon around "the old oak tree" if she wants him back in her life.
More recently, for patriotic citizens throughout North America, the yellow ribbon has become a symbol of passionate support for the military.
And now an online movement known as the Yellow Dog Project is mounting a global campaign to promote yellow ribbons as the latest step in doggie etiquette and pet safety.
Started in June 2012 by Tara Palardy, a dog trainer in Red Deer, Alta., the project is trying to educate dog owners to tie a yellow ribbon or another visible yellow item on the leash or collar of their pet as a warning their dog should not be approached.
In other words, it's the dog owner's equivalent of wrapping a pet in yellow police caution tape, a highly visible way to alert others that your dog, for whatever reason, needs a little space and should be given a wider berth.
That message is being spread through the movement's website, theyellowdogproject.com, and its Facebook page, which has thousands of followers and has spread to about 50 countries around the globe.
"Yellow dogs are dogs who need space -- they are not necessarily aggressive dogs, but more often are dogs who have issues of fear; pain from a recent surgery; are a rescue or shelter dog who has not yet had sufficient training or mastered obedience," Palardy's website explains.
"The Yellow Dog Project seeks to educate appropriate ways to approach or make contact with a dog with permission of a dog owner only, whether or not a dog is a 'yellow dog,'" it advises. "They also seek to promote the use of yellow ribbons to identify yellow dogs needing extra space."
Manitoba writer and dog lover Colleen Baldwin is spreading the word about the importance of warning others about dogs that need space.
"I am going to use this on Danny the collie... because so many people come up to him with their dogs and go, 'Oh, Lassie!' and in the meantime, he is being dominant with the other dog and the fight is on," Colleen tells me in an email. "He is generally a very good dog, but his alpha kicks in when on a leash and he is almost 70 pounds."
My initial reaction was to scoff at the notion that dogs need to be colour-coded, because common sense says any strange dog should be approached with caution.
On the other hand, I am the owner of two small dogs, one of whom, Mr. X (a.k.a. "Bogey") is as unpredictable as the weather and, despite being the size of a canned ham, has been known to lunge at dogs three times his size and angrily yap at the volume of a heavy metal drummer.
Moreover, local animal experts point out that common sense isn't very common and anything that raises awareness that some dogs -- even pint-sized ones like Mr. X -- need extra space is a huge step towards curbing a growing number of biting incidents.
"I just think it's a good thing," says Aileen White, director of communications and public affairs for the Winnipeg Humane Society. "Anything that's going to bring more awareness for people to learn not to approach every dog they see is good."
Dog ownership is increasing rapidly, meaning it is more important than ever to learn how to behave around dogs, not all of whom want a friendly pat on the head, she notes.
"The yellow ribbon sounds like a good thing," she says. "Is it a cure-all? No. But it can help. It certainly can't hurt. It doesn't mean a dog is (Stephen King's) Cujo; it just means it may not be comfortable with people that it isn't familiar with."
Her only concern is that, because yellow ribbons are so strongly tied to support for the military, it could create confusion and mistakenly encourage someone to approach a dog.
That concern is echoed by Winnipeg dog trainer Dawn Piche, owner of Canada's Canine Academy on Keewatin Street, a retired 15-year member of the Canadian Forces and an expert in rehabilitating aggressive dogs.
Piche praises the idea, but warns a yellow ribbon could backfire, leading people to mistakenly think a "yellow dog" is a military therapy dog or a veteran's dog.
"I'm not so sure it's the best colour," the trainer says. "The concept behind it is excellent, but I think a bit more thought needs to go into the implementation. Dogs should have something, like a leash that says 'Please Do Not Approach' or a T-shirt or a bandana."
For the record, those items are available on the non-profit Yellow Dog Project website -- along with bumper stickers, hoodies, ball caps, iPhone cases and other products -- with the cash being used to create more products.
Noting her academy works with 15 biting dogs in a typical week, Piche says the need to increase awareness has become critical. "There are more aggressive dogs out there than people realize," she says. "Something needs to be done to make people aware. Less and less are training their dogs and more and more dogs are becoming aggressive."
Asked for tips on how to approach a strange dog in a park, the trainer was blunt, saying the bottom line is you should never approach a strange dog. Wagging tails can fool people into thinking an animal is safe.
"Sometimes it can be happy it hasn't bitten somebody in a while, so it wags its tail," she says. "If a dog's tail is wagging and its mouth is closed, it's dangerous. That usually means it's going to bite.
"If the rear legs are closer together, it means it's going to go forward and it's not safe. If the ears are going forward, it's not a good sign."
You simply can't be too careful around dogs you don't know, she says, citing a recent close call in her own office. "I had my life put at risk by a lady who takes her dog to the dog park," she recalls. "It was a 175-pound St. Bernard. I was in front of it, talking to the lady and it lunged and bit me on my chest.
"When I looked down, he was coming at me again. I had to literally jump on its back. The lady was just scared the whole time and didn't help me. She had brought her dog in because it had gone after an older man at a local dog park."

I'm not responsible for what people think; only what I am.The Big Country is a 1958 American Western film directed by William Wyler. It stars Gregory Peck, Charlton Heston, Jean Simmons, Carroll Baker, and Burl Ives. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for its outstanding musical score, and Ives won the award for Best Supporting Actor.Wealthy, newly retired sea captain James McKay (Peck) travels to the American West to join his fianc�e, Patricia (Baker), at the enormous ranch owned by her father, Major Terrill. Terrill has been feuding with Rufus Hannassey (Ives), the patriarch of a poorer, less refined ranching clan. McKay gets caught up in the middle of the Terrill-Hannassey feud.McKay refuses to be provoked into proving his manhood, having sworn off such behavior since his father died in a meaningless duel. He does nothing to stop Hannassey's trouble-making son, Buck, from harassing him, and he declines a challenge by Terrill's foreman, Steve Leech (Heston), to ride an unruly horse. Patricia, Terrill and Leech consider this to be cowardly in view of the region's lawlessness.One morning, McKay rides to the Big Muddy, and persuades the owner, Julie (Simmons), to sell him her land by promising to continue her policy of allowing both groups access to the river.Needless to say, his plan doesn't end exactly as he'd hoped...

PreK Adds to Their Timeline
Timelines are used to show events chronologically over the passage of time. Union Pre-K added memorable events the students all experienced to their class timeline. Four year old students notice a small power outage. We added this to our timeline since everyone clearly would remember "the day the power went out." That day we read "Goodnight Gorilla." One of the pages has nothing but a pair of eyeballs. We posed for a picture surrounding the page from the book and that began our timeline. We recently had our first birthday celebrated in our class. Everyone sang the student Happy Birthday that morning and again at lunch. Everyone will remember "the day they celebrated that students birthday" eating cupcakes, so we added that event to our timeline. Ms. Ross looks forward to adding more memorable events to her timeline.Full Story

We just returned from a week at the casita, and had to share the experience - what a gem! The owners were very accommodating while being mindful of our privacy - making sure we got in OK, making sure we knew about the island's sometimes idiosyncratic grocery store hours. Though the casita shares a hilltop with the owner's home, it still felt very secluded and private.
As for the house, it's perfect for a couple looking for a romantic getaway - the leeward side of the house features large screen doors facing the west, and being high up provided great air movement for comfortable sleeping. The house itself is simple but perfect for a quiet getaway. We watched the sun rise on one porch and set from another. The kitchen has a small oven but we stuck to grilling and cooking things on the range. One small note: the bathroom lacks any sort of door, so keep that in mind if you're traveling with a new partner.

A partir de ahora administradores pueden recurrir a la versión de 64 bits del software de monitorización de PRTG (www.es.paessler.com), al monitorizar entornos de red cada vez más complejos. Gracias a este desarrollo, el proceso principal ya no será limitado a tres gigabytes, lo que favorece la estabilidad y el rendimiento de las instalaciones de gran tamaño. Asimismo, los nuevos tipos de sensores desarrollados para la versión más reciente de PRTG ofrecen más posibilidades de monitorización.
Al igual que todos los programas de 32 bits, PRTG solo podía utilizar un máximo de tres gigabytes. Por este motivo, las instalaciones estaban generalmente limitadas a unos 10,000 sensores. Dicho límite se amplía con la versión actual de PRTG, ya que ahora el servidor principal se suministra como sistema binario de 32 bits (para Windows de 32 bits) y como sistema binario de 64 bits. Así, en un equipo con versión de Windows de 64 bits, PRTG puede utilizar toda la memoria disponible del ordenador central. De esta manera, Paessler aumenta la recomendación sobre la cantidad máxima de sensores a 20,000. Para redes de gran tamaño ahora solo se necesitan la mitad de licencias o instalaciones de PRTG.
"En el marco del desarrollo continuo de nuestro software de monitorización de red (palabras clave: Continuous Rollout), nos basaremos en esta versión y la seguiremos mejorando durante los próximos meses", explica Dirk Paessler, director ejecutivo de Paessler AG. "Lo que significa que en algún momento del futuro serán posibles instalaciones aún mayores. En estos momentos estamos realizando pruebas con 50,000 sensores en nuestro laboratorio de prueba".
Más de 150 tipos de sensores a elegir
Actualmente, el especialista en monitorización de redes ha aumentado su gama de sensores a más de 150 tipos diferentes para satisfacer las más diversas finalidades de uso. Según la necesidad, se pueden "hilar" redes de supervisión de malla estrecha que trasmiten información de monitorización detallada y metódica. Este tipo de configuración precisa de sensores puede ser administrada de manera profesional hasta en un ámbito de redes complejo.
Lista general de los nuevos tipos de sensores:
- Sensores para SAN de NetApp
Monitorización completa de las soluciones de almacenamiento de NetApp
- Sensores para la monitorización de hardware vía SNMP
Monitorización de los componentes de hardware Windows y Linux
- Sensor MS Exchange Transport Queue
Monitorización detallada de MS Exchange Server 2003, 2007 y 2010
- Sensor Rango de Puerto
Monitorización de varios puertos mediante SNMP
- Sensor WMI de Cadena Personalizada
Monitorización de servidores SQL Windows mediante gestión WQL

Mephisto Waltz
Originally trained as a concert pianist, Mr. Stewart drew on this background for his first novel, "The Mephisto Waltz" (Coward-McCann), published in 1969. (The publicity materials for the book included a 45-r.p.m. recording of Mr. Stewart playing the title piece, by Liszt.) In 1971, the book became a film with Alan Alda as a young writer whose body is usurped by an aging p ...more

In the great style of Ira Levin (one of my favorite psychological thriller authors), this book is fast paced and suspenseful. A treat for any conossieur of the genre.
This novel taught me early on that I loved a fast plot, a lot of twists, and characters that are pure evil.

This is a totally cheesy 1969 horror novel, along the lines of Rosemary's Baby and The Exorcist. I devoured it with equal parts enjoyment and chagrin. It's wonderfully dated - the protagonists are thrilled with their newly renovated kitchen and its blue vinyl countertops - and effusively sprinkled with the most ghastly product placements. Myles and Paula Clarkson smoke TarGard Viceroys, use a Chemex coffeemaker, drink Diet Rite Cola, someone drives an XK-E (it's assumed we know, until the next p ...more

I have to say that I'm surprised that there are a significant number of people who enjoyed this book. I chose to read to this book after reading Fred Mustard Stewart's "Century" which is in no way similar to the suspense filled genre of "The Mephisto Waltz." I had watched "Rosemary's Baby" several years ago and it struck me, while reading "The Mephisto Waltz" how similar the movie and book were. They weren't exactly on point but the journey to find clues and the existence of the cult truly made ...more
Originally I saw the film. Years later when I worked a job where I had a two hour lunch, I found myself spending at least one or two days a week at the used bookstore. When I came across the book I hadn't realized it was a novel. At first I thought it was a book adaptation of the film, but was pleased to find out it wasn't.
On further research it's interesting to note the author wrote this book after attending Julliard.
I would read this book again.

This is basically a creeping horror novel about a pianist becoming possessed by an author himself trained as a pianist--a sort of low brow Dr. Faustus.

We liked it better than ROSEMARY'S BABY, and it had a great ending.
Fred Mustard Stewart was an American novelist. His most popular books were The Mephisto Waltz (1969), adapted for a 1971 film starring Alan Alda; Six Weeks (1976), made into a 1982 film starring Mary Tyler Moore; Century, a New York Times best-seller in 1981; and Ellis Island (1983), which became a CBS mini-series in 1984.More about Fred Mustard Stewart...

Catholic Teens Warm Up to '40-Day Spiritual Workout'
Catholic PRWire
STEUBENVILLE, OH (October 24, 2012) - Catholic youth have a new, free resource to keep them on their toes when it comes to their faith: Bob Rice�s 40-Day Spiritual Workout app, created exclusively for them.
�Making a commitment to the 40 Day Spiritual Workout brings a person into prayer, Scripture study, quotes from saints, and spiritual reflections,� says Bob Rice, catechetics professor at Franciscan University of Steubenville, who created the content for the app.
A sought-after speaker and musician with several popular CDs to his credit, Rice serves as music ministry leader for four of the Steubenville summer youth conferences and is a recognized leader in the youth ministry movement.
His new app uses lively graphics and colorful design to illustrate a daily message. The theme for Day 6, �The Perfect Prayer,� discusses how Jesus taught the disciples to pray the Our Father.
�This prayer is wonderful not only because of the simplicity of its words, but also because of what it represents,� the devotion reads, explaining the prayer in sections. At the end, the �Cool Down� recommends praying an Our Father.
The 40-Day Spiritual Workout is packed with daily devotions geared especially toward teenagers. Occasional stories help them connect the devotions to their personal lives. Users can let their youth minister and friends know their progress via email or Facebook.
�When I was a youth minister, I found that teens would come off the youth conference experience with great enthusiasm, but not know what to do next, especially when it came to daily prayer. This 40-day Bible study is ideal for a newly-committed Catholic or anyone who wants to learn more about the faith and get into a rhythm of prayer,� said Rice.
The new app is available for iPhone iTouch, and iPad. For those who want to do the workout on their computer or other mobile device, they can access it through email.
To download the free app, or to sign up to receive the daily email version, visit 40days.steubenville.org.

When Tom Santi and Jonathan Stupar departed due to graduation, it left a hole to be filled at the tight end position. Senior John Phillips has put together a solid spring, and feels that he is the man to fill those shoes.
Phillips caught a touchdown pass in limited action during Saturday's spring game, and is primed to be an integral part of Mike Groh's offense this fall. Andrew Devlin and Joe Torchia also did well, and hope to contribute in 2008 at the position as well.
As for Phillips, he showed signs of progress last season, appearing in all 13 games, and pulling down two touchdown receptions. He also played a significant role on special teams, something that Al Groh doesn't take lightly.

The purpose of the planning system is to maintain a consistent approach to development. This is done through a series of local and national policies.
Planning involves making decisions about the future of our cities, towns and countryside. This is vital to balance our desire to develop the areas where we live and work with ensuring the surrounding environment isn't negatively affected for everyone. It includes considering the sustainable needs of future communities.
The planning system regulates the development and use of land in the public interest. It seeks to balance the need for new homes, factories, schools and other facilities with our need to protect and improve the environment.
The system is not designed to protect the interests of one person or group over others. Within the framework of legislation approved by Parliament, people have a reasonable degree of freedom to alter their property.
Controls safeguard the character and amenity of local areas for the benefit of the public as a whole. Planning permission should normally be granted, unless it is contrary to the development plan or the proposal causes demonstrable harm to interests of acknowledged planning importance.
The Lewes District Local Plan was adopted in March 2003 and sets out the current planning strategy for the District. It is under review and will ultimately be replaced by the Local Development Framework.
The development plan sets out the rules for consideration of individual planning applications, what we plan to do with land in the district, details what types of development will and will not be permitted, and how we will control development. This provides the basis for rational and consistent planning decisions and guides most of our day-to-day decisions. It also allocates land for various types of new development.
Generally, applications for planning permission should be determined in accordance with the development plan, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. Applications which do not accord with the plan should not be allowed unless material considerations justify granting a permission. This helps to:
Further information on the Lewes District Local Plan
Building Regulations approval is a separate matter from obtaining planning permission for your work. This applies to building work in England & Wales and set standards for the design and construction of buildings to ensure the safety and health for people in or around those buildings.
They also include requirements to ensure that fuel and power is conserved and facilities are provided for people, including those with disabilities, to access and move around inside buildings.
Some areas have special protection against certain developments. Reasons for special protection include:
Occasionally, large proposals or controversial applications of national significance are 'called in' to be decided by the First Secretary of State instead of the Local Planning Authority.

Middle East
The TNR EXCHANGE: Trust Fall
April 15, 2010
James Risen, a Washington-based writer, and Yossi Klein Halevi, a Jerusalem-based writer, have been friends since they both crashed the Nazi Party headquarters in Chicago as student reporters 30 years ago. They have been joking and arguing about news and politics ever since, especially when it comes to Israel and the Middle East. This e-mail exchange began in the shadow of the dispute between the Obama administration and the Netanyahu government.
No American Troops Should Die Protecting Israel
April 12, 2010
Almost before the celebrants at Barack Obama's inauguration had gotten over their hangovers some 15 months ago, the president designated George Mitchell as his special envoy in the Middle East. I wrote then and several times since that he would be a flop, poor man. After all, it's not the case that he had been a great success in any of his other high-minded missions, including the investigation into steroid use by baseball heroes.
The Palestinian Authority Can Do No Wrong
April 11, 2010
So the Obama administration seems to believe. It has not, at least in my memory, been struck by anything the P.A. has done or said that is inimical to negotiations and to peace. While it commands this and then that from Israel just to get the Palestinians to sit down and talk, the talking will not be between the parties at all but a three-way process with George Mitchell shuttling between Ramallah and Jerusalem and back.
Killing in the Name
April 08, 2010
The following is adapted from a talk delivered at the U.S. State Department in Washington, D.C., on March 19, 2010. One of the greatest ironies of the past decade's debates over political Islam has been that, on the whole, the most passionate and emphatic rejections of radical Islamism in this country came from President Bush and his supporters—that is, conservatives. This is peculiar because the various forms of radical Islamism represent the third major form of totalitarian ideology and politics in modern world history.
The Party Line
April 07, 2010
Russia and the Arabs: Behind the Scenes in the Middle East from the Cold War to the Present By Yevgeny Primakov Translated by Paul Gould (Basic Books, 418 pp., $29.95) Over the decades, many people in the West, and certainly most Israelis, came to view the Soviet Union and then Russia as a force for ill, if not evil, in the Middle East, and perhaps farther afield as well.
"Sanctions with bite," Said Hillary. But There Are No Teeth In The Bite. Just Mushy Old Gums. Go To A Periodontist.
March 25, 2010
Hillary Clinton told the AIPAC conference this past Monday that, after fifteen months of his presidency, President Obama was about to launch, with our allies, "sanctions with bite." I commented on this earlier in the week. But a top front-page dispatch in this morning's Wall Street Journal tells us just how little pain Iran would incur when the political psychodrama finally unfolds at the Security Council.
Other Than Apartments In Jerusalem, What Else Is Going On In The Middle East?
March 22, 2010
Ban Ki-moon is the secretary general of the United Nations. The world is in pretty good shape. This is why he can spend so much of his time relieving the pain of the Arabs of Palestine, who are (if you don't know already) the only people who suffer from their neighbors. The other Arabs probably suffer from their local overlords. But most of this is kept hush-hush, maybe because Barack Obama wants to have nice relations with them. Mr. Ban certainly wants to have good ties with them.
I Know I Am Harping On The President's Israel Policy. But That's Exactly What I Should Be Doing And What I Aim To Do.
March 19, 2010
Frankly, it's a little bit embarrassing to be citing the Commentary crowd so often. But the fact is that the other powerful venues which seem to understand that the Palestinians do not really want peace--or act as if they don't--are few and far between. Yes, there is the Washington Post, where Jackson Diehl, Charles Krauthammer, and Chuck Lane analyze what everyone can (but most refuse to) see or describe. Then, of course, there are the editorials, the collective voice of the Post, which strike an independent voice free of Arabisant cant and America bashing.
Housing Bust
March 19, 2010
You do not need insider information to know that Hillary Clinton threw a hissy fit at Bibi Netanyahu last Friday morning. And you don't need that kind of information to know that she was sent out to do this little job by her boss.
Juan Cole's Mania
March 18, 2010
One of the odd things about people with very left-wing views on the Middle East is that they're obsessed with the political influence of American Jews yet almost completely unfamiliar with the actual beliefs of the subject of their obsession.

DEFINITION of 'Mortgage Excess Servicing'
The percentage of the monthly cash flow that remains after the cash flow has been divided into a coupon and principal payment for the mortgage backed securities (MBS) holder. This servicing fee typically goes to the servicer of the loan, and is possibly a guarantee fee for the underwriter of the MBS.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Mortgage Excess Servicing'
For example, in a typical MBS deal, if the interest rate on a mortgage is 8%, the MBS holder might receive 7.5%, the servicer of the mortgage receives 0.25% and the MBS underwriter gets 0.15% This leaves the remaining 0.10% (8% - 7.5% - 0.25% - 0.15% = 0.10%) as excess servicing.
Like an MBS, excess servicing is subject to prepayment and extension risk. When excess servicing is priced, it is valued based on an estimate of how long the annuity will last. This must be estimated since it cannot be known for certain when a mortgage borrower might refinance or otherwise pay-off his or her mortgage. The value of excess servicing can change dramatically when interest rates change, because changes in current interest rates relative to the interest rate on the mortgage determine how long the annuity of excess servicing associated with that mortgage might last.
