I would recommend this hotel not as good. I have never experienced anything like that. Dirty rooms, tölettenspülung broken, from the hair dryer came sparks, windows before dirt not open properly, hot food was always cold, many building sites and they were not secure.
Accounts after 2 nights the hotel change. Won't stay there again! read hotel review

The hotel celebrated in october its 83. birthday. One of the first on the Varadero.
You can see that the hotel, but guests is much renovated and renewed.
Very extensive area, many individually standing houses and beautiful garden.
Rooms functional and the size is ok.
Staff was very friendly and each desire is fulfilled.
Reception on deficiencies and very cooperative.
Manager speaks good german and is very helpful
The greatest for me the very beautiful langegezoge extensive beach.
Lots of space and many beautiful, quiet corners.
If you are not comfortable, it was your own fault.
Food extensive and good. ... And that around the clock.
Food could be more choice, but you could always find something.
In Cuba probably too spicy not usual. if you something to complain about find, could always find something.
And the only and at all complain, should not be 3 stars and 5 stars expect.
And it is Cuba and not Germany.
I was now for the 3 time in this hotel and will come again this year. read hotel review

Perfect holiday!
But only if you land and people repektiert.
Can the worst reviews not understand.
The hotel is directly at the beach, there was a little rust and mold inevitable, but were the employees all very pleasant to us. But if you, of course, with a face like 7 days rainy weather was okay and constantly grouses, i would have no bock those to operate.
All people died ieses hotel so badly to evaluate should rather vacation at home and not on vacation with your poor mood nerves. Wanted after the first day a different room since our a ... shared balcony and have very pleasant with the lady from the reception spoken.
On the next day we had a great room but for us with directly at the beach(room 4507, 4505 is however even better). However as mentioned you have to stop normal with the people talking about. Sometimes one must for his countrymen to be ashamed of, as with the employees bypass (of which are actually some academics, only they deserve in the hotel more). We would go there anytime again. And the one after eating times one or two Peso there is for me anstandssache and has anything with grease to do.
Benefits from the hotel are:
Right on the hotel is a bank
Great beach
Food was good ( there was fish, turkey, pork, delicious ice, pasta, salads, rice)
No hotel bunker as often in Varadero
Pleasant staff
Canadians and all the no show respect
Money in the bank (better than in the hotel)
Cigars in Trinidad buy
Trip Havanna, buena vista social club (with vip ), Trinidad overnight were totally great
Catamaran with butterfly isn't recommendable( 100 people while snorkeling in the water and the poor dolphin in a small basin imprisoned and must constantly dämliche tricks make). read hotel review

Ekelhotel all inclusive. Too many canadians-loud! We booked the most expensive room superior beach villa on Neckermann and got the last moldy dog kennel. Travel guide locally didn't really help. Arrogant, made in spanish about us fun and was stupid. Front desk lier already at the check-in- sorry, the rooms are not finished yet, the craftsmen are still inside. Was not correct, the room was still occupied. 'beach villa 802' not check in-next to disco and the air ventilation of the restaurant- no relaxation possible. Room 801, the mold was over-coated, right afterwards could there guests be changed. The total ... catastrophe! Untidy facilities, front desk rude, food carelessly displayed, mass processing in the restaurant, dirty and moldy room. Really dangerous. We need vacation from the vacation, no recreation value. For €1,550 no value for money! The absolute Neckermann-rip-off, that is unacceptable, never again! read hotel review

Who likes it rather modest and didn't take a closer look, which cleanliness subject is relatively good. Every tourist must first with a room changing be prepared, (seems strategy), because he once in a down come room will be accommodated.
The toilets by the pool are the absolute disaster.
The food is not very varied but ok. Often missing dishes or cutlery. The waiters are only with appropriate tip friendly and attentive.
The evening shows are really worth seeing.
The beach is really very nice. If only everyone tourist its dirt would remove, it would be perfect. read hotel review

Hotel in general:
The second-oldest hotel in Varadero is at the start extensive hotel area, not far from numerous bars, restaurants and souvenir shops.
The hotel kawama composed of two-story bungalows together, in a
Relatively large park with a directly at the beach are.
The complex seemed reasonably maintained, if one does not look exactly and not too picky.
In the center this facilities is the large pool area, consisting of a large pool with different schwimmtiefen and a children's pool, which unfortunately besides business was.
The pool itself seemed well-kept and is cleaned every day.
Unfortunately in many places ... are strong signs of wear recognizable in the form of peeled off color and broken tiles.
The chairs by the pool are immaculate leave but unfortunately an edition miss, the poking you very, would increase.
Beach in general:
The beach section works also well maintained, if you don't looked more closely.
The beach is to the water back flat and therefore ideal for swimming adequate.
Front desk:
This is in the main building the hotel. The interior is ageing, on closer look also nothing special clean and tidy, has however certain charm, the 50. years reminds, especially if the classic cars taxis ancestors.
The staff works friendly and accommodating.
Hotel bar:
This is also in the main building.
It is small, the drinks offer is comprehensive, but not by a very good quality, with certain safety on the still partly existing economy scarcity in the socialist Cuba is, both at the price for the all-inclusive offer the tour operator.
Pool bar:
Directly at the pool convenient, open plan and under a palmendach.
This bar we only twice short visit, since this bar totally neglected and dirty. Furthermore it stinks there partly of urine and vomit when i arrived.
Snack bar by the pool:
This was from us also visited only once, since this also totally dirty.
Main restaurant:
This lies directly at the beach, and has a small terrace with a great view on beach and sea.
The restaurant itself is ageing reasonably clean and well maintained.
The büfettanlagen are totally out of date, neglected and dirty.
The offered meals are short and quickly described:
Every day:
A couple salads unangemacht
A soup with croutons
A small noodle counter with penne, spaghetti, rice, two sauces
Two vegetables, sweet potatoes
Beef, poultry, fish
Fresh from the grill,
Dessert consisting of various cakes and ice.
Our really personal opinion:
The dishes were more or less tasty, the presentation a catastrophe, and the preparation, they were unimaginative.
This applies to lunch and dinner, the breakfast was a bit better however not measurable with european standards. In short is:2 weeks almost always the same.
Really bad!
Perhaps now some readers think we were just a little too sensitive.
Because we since many years even catering work, i would stress once again, that this achievement even for a perhaps existing economy scarcity an isolence was. With a little attention to product and a little imagination one could great varied dishes in buffet form charms can.
Because of whose we moved often before, the neighbouring restaurant to visit, where apparently no economy scarcity was excellent prepared meals and cocktails served got.
Btw: for a german average wage earner and normal absolutely affordable.
à la carte restaurant:
In the hotel complex there were 2 à-la-carte -restaurants which one at the front desk morning without auxiliary costs can book. One has the choice between an 'international' and a 'italian' restaurant.
We booked one night at the italian restaurant.
The furnishing was okay and also ageing. It seemed clean and tidy.
The tables were set and the service was attentive and accommodating the selection of food is low consisting of 3 soups a few pasta, 4 different pizzas 2 fish dishes and a little dessert.
The quality was comparable with the buffet restaurant.
In Germany we booked through a travel agency this hotel.
We reserved superior room and they assured us in the travel agency this room better equipped and renovated its.
Unfortunately we forgot about to ask, when the renovation had taken place.
Room rather small, equipped with a safe ( you have 30 cuc extra pay),tv and coffee machine without coffee.
A fridge is available and upon arrival there is one bottle water which one at the bar refill could.
The bed was clean, around we initially not look.
The bathroom was a catastrophe. Ceiling in the full bathroom mildewed, window nailed up and blind painted toilet worked with a cord.
Amateurs and shower heads worked only moderately all joints were also of mold infested. The hair dryer defect. This could also after 14 days not be repaired.
By constant maintenance of the maid service in the form of tips, it our room better to clean, so we were reasonably comfortable.
In short:
We booked this year our vacation very short and since many years once again as a flat rate of all inclusive.
This will give us never again happen.
Very little emphasis on quality and value for money sets, is very well taken care off in this hotel.
This is a report of a frustrated tourist, legendlich a situationsbericht i even locally wrote.
We enjoyed despite all the excellent weather, the great beaches, the great individual excursions on Cuba and the friendliness and hospitality of the people outside the hotel. read hotel review

The staff in this complex ignore a guest so long until the either give a tip something service to purchase or to this after about 15 minutes with drinks and cutlery lays.

We, couple, were with the selection of the hotel very satisfied. You can see in every corner, that the requirement the trouble when it comes to cleanliness goes. Are all friendly and accommodating. The food was varied and (against other reviews) well seasoned. Otherwise stood in the restaurant always a few types of ketchup, Tabasco and other ingredients.
Beach was clean. Only what was missing was the right entertainment in the evening. But they are now building a new canopy for the entertainment. If you don't have any 5-star (in three star hotel) have expectations then you can enjoy the ... vacation. Every evening playing a band live music what also contributed to the beautiful mood in the evening. read hotel review

The best vacation was the day the way home!
Hotel in many areas very run-down and disgusting and dirty!
Room totally dirty, old furniture on falling apart and every day trouble with electricity respectively water pressure!
Front desk to 90% unfriendly, arrogant and the guest not the bean interested!
The food is very bad, zerkocht, half roughly, almost always cold, not seasoned and even the fruit -if there was something-is immature!
Waiter note A only if one often tip has been made!
Many guests in the hotel were almost around the clock drunk!
The beach is quite nice, but it ... is also other hotels!
For the price you get in the cathedral. Republic or Cancun a real hotel with delicious food and no property where the guests than inconvienience of the staff occurs!
Otherwise is the one in Varadero no respectively hardly any infrastructure finds!
Except che guevara T-shirts and other tourists rip-off you hardly find shops or something else for shopping.
Nearby to the hotel you will find also nothing special, an average pizzeria and 2-3 snacks (comida rapida). read hotel review

I was already for the 2 times in kawama and will gladly come back... Not the cleanest hotel but overall ok. Value for money we thought OK. Food is took some getting used to (badly peppered and often only still lukewarm) but you can also very cheap to eat (enough pub in the area). There are also 3 theme restaurants in the hotel which one however must book. Location of the hotel is dreamlike... On foot everything is reachable. There are buses with which one everything to reach can. Beach is clean and simply dreamlike! Pool is clean and cozy. read hotel review

great location, great beach, however you must be aware, that Cuba is not Europe. If you are not a five star hotel on Mauritius used to is, is in kawama certainly be satisfied. Understand the bad reviews not. My tip: when you call into the forest in-calls, then it comes back. With a little tip the cleaning of the rooms also great.

Just when you thought you had seen all of the possible desserts-in-a-jar combinations, a fun idea comes along to make you smile. These incredible smores in a jar cakes will delight guests of all ages and they are easy-to-DIY (get the full how-to scoop here). I'm not sure if I love this because a) it is a genius idea, b) it is less messy to eat than a traditional smore, or c) last weekend I did tons of camping and bonfire-ing, consuming yummy s'mores along the way. OK, all of the above! This yummy cake in a jar will make a unique wedding favor your guests will always remember (+ immediately enjoy!).
YUM. Ooey, gooey, and chock-full of chocolate goodness. My favorite!
Happy Planning!

UTA women seek first Sun Belt victory against Troy
The UT Arlington women's basketball team has been searching all season.
The Mavericks found their first win on their 11th try this year, and ever since, UTA has been hunting its first Sun Belt Conference victory in the school's first season as a member of its third conference in as many seasons.
After losses on the road to Louisiana-Lafayette on Jan. 11 and more recently to Texas State 68-60 on Wednesday, the Mavericks (1-15, 0-5 Sun Belt) and first-year coach Krista Gerlich hope to end the drought with a victory against Troy at College Park Center on Wednesday.
The Trojans (5-12, 1-5) are led by Joanna Harden, the Sun Belt Conference player of the week and the leading scorer in the conference. Harden averages 24.8 points a game, making the guard the fourth-leading scorer in the country.
Mavericks center Desherra Nwanguma set a season high with 25 points in the loss to Texas State. The senior also pulled down 13 rebounds against the Bobcats.
UTA won the only other meeting against Troy in 2005 in Orlando, Fla.

ADSTECH unit...DVDEXPRESS DX2 model...uses USB port to capture video signal. I am able to convert old VHS tapes to DVD....problem is the sound. I have good video, but no sound only on some DVD players. Converting old family VHS tapes to DVD to pass along to family members. I have an APEX DVD player and both video and sound play ok...but Phillips dvd player will play video but NO SOUND. Both units play a -R type format....the program called CAPWIZ is used to capture the video from the VHS tape to the computer..is there some sound setting that I can make that will make these conversion, that will make these play video and audio in ALL DVD PLAYERS?
So there is some type of sound on the disk, but some players won't play it? Drag one of the files (VTS_01_1.VOB) from the disk into MediaInfo and see what type of audio information it shows.
IT shows exactly as you have highlighted above...192Kbps,48. KHz, 16 bits, AC-3.The PHILLIPS DVD pLAYER, does have sound on commercial DVD's...but will not play sound on a mastered DVD conversion from VHS tape made with ADSTECH unit mentioned above. Any, and all help supremely appreciated!!!!!
So it shows as 'First audio stream'? On the standalone,is there an 'Audio' button or a way to select different audio tracks on a DVD. I can't see any obvious reason why the audio should not play.
I did not see any....I think I am going over to a friends and see if the PHILLIPS will play this DVD-R on his TV...I wondered if there is a sound setting on the TV that needs to be ajusted to match the output from the PHILLIPS?
SIMPLIST OF PROBLEMS...bad audio cable. Problem ok now...sometimes the most complex issue is really very simpole...thanks again!

Run Another Mile
Why you stop: You're running low on glycogen, the primary fuel source for your muscles. But it's not the only one. Any body fat you have is available. Your brain knows this, but it's not telling you.
Keep going: Try this trick from Jane Hahn, a senior editor at Runner's World magazine. If a runner is in sight, slowly reel him in. "Imagine there's a magnet attached to him," says Hahn, "and it's pulling you toward him." (Or her. Imagining it's Scarlett Johansson works well.)
Some practical preparation: Include long runs in your training, no matter how short your races are. "Long runs teach the body to run more efficiently and to use energy stores more effectively," says Hahn.

The Togetherness
My identical twin daughters, age nearly 9, are going through a major relationship realignment. They've always been very twinny twins, much to my initial surprise. They still sleep in the same bed, despite nominally having separate ones. They've asked to be in the same classroom for the past two years and foreseeable future. They identify as twins above all.
Don't get me wrong. They've always had their unique personalities and interests. M is the chatterbox. J is a talker, but she has moments of thoughtful reflection. M doesn't. M prides herself on being a mathematician and loves to perform feats of mental mathematics for fun. J likes math too, but prefers mathematical concepts to hard numbers. J is enormously protective of her sister, I suspect at least in part because of her frontonasal dysplasia, whereas M is surprised on the rare occasion that J's feelings are hurt. M is cautious, while J is my risk-taker.
They both love to read and are intensely social. They both have fabulous senses of humour and a love of wordplay. They're both smart and insightful and self-righteous and persistent and messy and forgetful and my favourite people in the entire world.
The Divergence
I've always said that I would support my children's religious choices and do my best to educate them to enable them to make their own decisions. I'm an atheist, but have raised my daughters within a Christian community and with age-appropriate knowledge of the Bible.
For the past 9 years, I have been taking my children to church. Just over two years ago, they chose the church to attend, and thereby their own denomination too. They've attended the Kids' Kingdom Sunday school program and developed deep friendships. They both feel very much at home there.
Or rather, they both felt very much at home there.
This week, M informed me that she is atheist. She's been thinking about her beliefs for about 6 months, starting during the period during which we were apart. She is very much at peace with her choice. Her biggest concern was how to break the news to her sister. I told M that as long as she was honest and respectful of both J's feelings and beliefs, it would be okay.
That same night, with very little fanfare, M decided that she was too hot and wanted to sleep alone. J wanted snuggles and crawled into my bed. For the first time that I can remember, M slept in a room alone. J has done so before, but never M. She's growing up and growing independent. It struck me that with that small step and the much larger faith decision, M is started to tread her own path, not in active contrast to her sister, as she's done with math, but spontaneously, organically, and age-appropriately.
J took the news of M's atheism surprisingly well. When I asked if she wanted to talk to me about how she was feeling, J retorted that I wouldn't understand. I reminded her of the church community members who would understand and would be available for her to talk to. She said she would call them after she'd had some time to think.
And so it begins, the gentle individuation of my monozygotic daughters. I had feared that this tearing apart would wait until the teenage years, when my daughters will additionally be forging identities separate from me and the family unit. Perhaps this will make the teenage years a little less terror-inspiring? Or at least only as terrifying as that of their singleton peers?
Have your multiples been independent from the start? Or has their inter-dependency evolved over time?

Mar 24, 2011It goes to show you that better graphics and a bigger storyline doesn't necessarily make a better game. The extra-combination powers gets old real quick when you can regenerate them very quickly as in this game. The story itself has too many turns to care about. And the final boss battle was patheticly done. Very dissappointing game considering its predeccesor.
Jul 1, 2011Pros: decent graphics, good roster of characters, level design is fine, organised. Cons: weak cutscenes, you have to pay for dlc, not enough levels. Other: the choice of 'powers' are hit and miss. OVERALL: a decent game but the type of gameplay isn't particularly fun
Dec 18, 2013It's the same game as the first one essentially. If you liked it and you want more, then this is the way to go. Just don't expect any improvements, there are none, it plays exactly the same.

Aug 17, 2012
Oct 30, 2012I have played around the 2/3 of the game and did not finished it. The game is way too repetitive. Maybe if i had played in off-line coop, i would have appreciate it more.
Apr 29, 2013Really didn't enjoy this game. It was boring, game play that was fairly bland and predictable. Fun from the perspective of 'getting to play as my favorite heroes' but not in an engaging way that made you FEEL like a super hero. It just reminded me how frustrating playing these types of 'switch between em' games with a console is.
May 31, 2013This was a really good game and this is coming from a Marvel fan. I love playing as Spider-Man, Gambit, Ms. Marvel and Deadpool. You can play as the Avengers, X-Men and Fantastic Four. I just wish there were more characters to play as such as Loki and Doctor Octopus.
Most of the time when I see a developer change between products, it spells inevitable doom or a watered down shadow of the previous title. In this case, I think Vicarious Visions has taken what Raven started and managed to not only match it but improve upon it.
But ultimately, even though a lot of things about MUA2 aggravate me, the moment-to-moment gameplay of superheroes beating the crap out of robots/mutants/soldiers with fists, mystical hammers, repulsor rays, giant tongues, and what-have-you feels solid and enjoyable.
A solid follow-up to the 2006 release, with great new characters and fusion powers. The game looks very nice and plays well.


text: Wishau made three appearances this week and finished 2-1 in the circle as the Blugolds went 4-2. In a 3-0 victory over UW-Stout on Wednesday, Wishau pitched a complete game on the way to recording her third shutout of the year. In that game, she allowed only three hits while striking out five batters. She also pitched four innings Sunday against Blackburn (Ill.), a team the Blugolds beat 11-1 in five innings. She came way allowing just one hit and one run while striking out four batters. Saturday against 13th-ranked Illinois Wesleyan University, Wishau pitched six innings and struck out four batters but gave up six hits and four runs, only two of which were earned, as the Blugolds fell 4-1. For the week, she pitched 17 innings and allowed 10 hits and only three earned runs for an ERA of 1.24. Wishau had a total of 13 strikeouts in three games.

Capital structure and the firm under uncertainty
This paper examines the interplay between the real and financial decisions of the competitive firm `a la Sandmo. Besides output price uncertainty, the firm faces additional sources of risk which are aggregated into an additive background risk. We show that the firm always chooses its optimal debt-equity ratio to minimize the weighted average cost of capital, irrespective of the risk attitude of the firm and the incidence of the multiple sources of uncertainty. Even though the introduction of the background risk affects neither the optimal debt-equity ratio nor the marginal rate of technical substitution, it does have an adverse effect on the output level of the firm. Furthermore, if capital is a normal input, the presence of the background risk induces the firm to acquire less capital by issuing less debt and equity.

Well I guess I jumped in this morning with all 4's as they say, there is so much anger in our children today--I don't understand it-but going thru the ordeal with my son I have learned in alot of these cases there are underlined problems that some parent might not even be awear of--my son was molested by a "so called" family friend at 4 yrs old and we didn't find out or know about it until he was 10 yrs old! So my only suggestion is sometimes we think we are in tuned with our kids but really don't listen--hinsight, our son never wanted to go to this friends home--but couldn't find out why and when we asked all we were told by him was he didn't like it there....so try a little harder for listen.
H ave a great day everyone and May God bless you all.

To catch everyone up with my sons bulling problem, he is now back to public school (God help me) with new coping skills for these issues. Already had to use them due to a child had already started to bully him again, he remembered to go to an adult and it was taken care of. This year my son goes into 8th grade and it will be the first complete year back into public school, all I can do is pray and keep reinforcing our coping skills. I do pray for all children in the schools it happens everyday to our children.
Welcome to all, since starting this group,it breaks my heart this is still going on. Well my son has gone back into public school and the only thing that has changed is my son has learned how to cope with bullies. May God be with our children in these times.
will this behavior ever end in our schools and/or society?
Wanted to update all, my son is back into public school.so far so good. hasalready had 1 confrontation
please take a moment to remember this terrible thing is still happening in our schools, just your child for signs you have read about on our group,my son will be going back to school this year, my prayers for all children for the way this world is today--lets hope it will be a great year
welcome to our little group--look forward to you insights and suggestions for our problem we feel is growing here in Marion County schools and pray you haven't or rather your children hasn't gone thru one of these terrible problems.
Again welcome very pleased your here--Suzanne

NV30 pictures
I don't see why everyone is making a fuss about them. The fact is that they have nothing to do with the NV30. They were rendered in software using a 3D modeling program similar to 3D Studio MAX. Here's the link to the website where they pictures were taken from.
http://www.exluna.com/products/gallery.html And yes I realize exluna is owned by Nvidia, but those pictures were on their website before they were purchased. As you can see, each of the pictures was using different software. The motorcycle was built using Maya, Mayaman, and Entropy. The picture of the table and the picture of the pens were made using BMRT. |
Those pics are just there to represent what the Nv30 will be able to do in realtime.
Why ask me for proof? I have nothing to do with Nvidia.
Simply ripping off images from a website and claiming to be NV30 real-time renders isn't exactly proof to me. |
Look around and read. Again just a reminder don't ask me for any proof. I don't work for Nvidia.
-Skippy |
Anyway, the headline on this website's homepage clearly states that these are NV30 screenshots, when they were in fact uploaded as early as last November. (http://www.exluna.com/products/gallery/) Kind of misleading, in any case.
lol mavis |
I don't give a rats about the pictures but then I have not been overly impressed with the Radeon 9700 either. I fully expect the NV30 to be 10 - 15% faster with better quality in resolutions above 800x600.
What do I base this assessment on? Nvidia's past history and superior driver support. Vapourware? Ummm...... No; more like end of the year ware.:cool: |
lol Anyway, have you seen any confirmed specs/release date info on the NV30 yet? Just curious. mavis |
You have a point there. I can play games even now with my G3 above high quality at large resolutions and have great framerate. I don't expect people telling me what looks good and what looks bad. I am very sure what I like and currently it's more than playable on latest games.

Can't decide which I like best, I like the stonewall/rainbow but I like this with the bluish purple sky. I like them all! |
Where was this beautiful rainbow photo taken? |
This is a powerful photograph. |

Product description
MEET JAKE DRAKE, BULLY BUSTER. When Jake was three years old at Miss Lulu's Dainty Diaper Day Care Center, what did he know about bullies? Nothing. But he learned fast! Why? Because Jake was kind of smart and not a tattletale, and he had no big brother to protect him. He was a perfect bully magnet. But everything changed the year Jake was in second grade. That's when SuperBully Link Baxter moved to town. Jake had his hands full just trying to survive, until class project time. Who did the teacher assign to be Link's partner? You guessed it. Jake has to use all his smarts -- and his heart as well -- to turn himself from Jake Drake, Bully Magnet, to Jake Drake, Bully Buster.

I appreciated the quick response to my order. I had not been able to get this particular fragrance at the departments stores in our area. I was glad to be able to see that this fragrance was available from your company online and at a slightly lower price than some other online companies.

Comments about Parfums Gres Caline Sweet Appeal Perfume:
I like the fragrance very much, use it in winter around Christmas time - it is sweet, lovely and warm, reminds me the fragrance of home-made, warm apple pie. It doesn't hold more than 3 hours, that's the only minus.

MARUAH is concerned over the recent arrests in 2 separate incidents, Mr Amos Yee's YouTube video, and 2 men holding placards outside the Istana.
The 1st incident involved a Youtube video and an obscene picture on a blog. Amos Yee has been arrested, charged, and released on bail. The charges relate to the Penal Code Section 298, Penal Code Section 292(1)(a), and the Protection from Harassment Act, Section 4(1)(b). We note that Section 298 of the Penal Code was amended in 2007 to provide another legislative option to deal with offenders, in lieu of the Sedition Act, an action that we commend.
The 2nd incident involved 2 persons, holding placards outside the Istana. They were arrested under the Public Order Act, Section 16(1)(a).
MARUAH is concerned that they point to severe infringements on freedom of expression, and freedom of peaceful assembly. Human rights do not exist in a vacuum. People function within a society, interacting with each other and will have views on people, issues and the State. Read the rest of this entry »

What happens when you give a group of previously marginalized women access to technology? They begin to change their reality. That's what Andrea Rees is helping to accomplish in a township just outside of Cape Town, South Africa. Andrea is a travel photographer with a passion for capturing the world with her iPhone and documenting it on her blog. In 2012, she jetted off on her first trip to South Africa merely as a curious traveller and photographer but she didn't quite realize how powerful that iPhone of hers would really become. She stepped into eKhaya eKasi (pronounced e-ka-ya -e-casee), a small arts and education centre for women. They provide an after-school program for young children, offer skill-building to women, and teach literacy to the community of Khayelitsha. She noticed their little side shop also sells crafts made by locals. Beautifully beaded bracelets, souvenir pins, and heart ornaments made of local fabric called shwe shwe were on display for tourists to purchase but some shelves were empty, and none included photography art or postcards. Her initial thought: "If they have a product they could sell, they could make money. Postcards are the easiest things to create and something people still buy when they travel." So she decided she would use her skills in photography to help. She founded The Heart of a Woman Project, a grassroots initiative that offers photography workshops and skills development to women in the Khayelitsha community including how to take photos, use lighting and composition, and editing. This all might sound insignificant to me and you but it is more than just snapping a pic here and there. These women are doing it all with the iPhone. You see, just last year, Apple released it's new 5c and 5s series but entirely skipped Africa. In poor countries, cell-phone integration has been linked to positive economic development like entrepreneurship and new business but corporate entities are turning their cheek for wealthier states. Meanwhile, in Khayelitsha, Andrea has taught women how to use an iPhone camera, print photos to create postcards and then sell them to local tourists. In just 11 days last November, the first 9 women produced 200 postcards each to sell at eKhaya eKasi for $1US or 10 local Rand. Now, local retailers are demanding postcards to sell in their own local shops and even nearby hostels. Andrea's photography workshop is also having a positive social impact. With the use of portable WIFI units donated to her cause, the women can now share their photos on social media networks like Instagram. With the help of crowdfunding campaigns and some sponsorship Andrea has also been able to hire local women to be Project Leaders, and even provide meals to women during the workshops. "Sometimes, it may be there only meal of the day," she says.
Photograhy is.
Most of us say photography is art. I asked Andrea to fill in the blank: Photograhy is ___. Her answer was strikingly different: "A source of income. It's empowerment. Women are telling me they could buy clothes for their family, pay school fees, and put food on the table. They are learning to be entrepreneurs, sustainable, and self-sufficient. That's what photography is for them." They are also learning to use their voice. They have begun sending tweets and using Facebook to communicate messages of social and political ideas. When I interviewed Andrea, it was the day before the first "born-free" democratic national election in 20 years in South Africa - the first time people born under Apartheid rule will have the chance to vote. Through mobile technology, the women have found ways to engage about this historic election, draw attention to their community, and life in their township. This photo was taken by mobile photographer Busisiwe Plata, telling the world "this is how we get water in our daily lives." You could see more of her work on Instagram @BusiePlata
About Khayelitsha
Khayelitsha is Cape Town's largest township and women are highly disadvantaged here with high rates of domestic abuse, rape, and a youth drop-out. Unemployment is 57% compared to 24% in Cape Town and the average income is $240 US dollars per month for those who do have a job. Electricity and clean water are a challenge but, despite the struggles, Andrea says a woman can be a driver of change. "I'm a woman and a mother myself. There is an innate, nurturing ability in us."
[ctt tweet="If you can teach a woman something, she will change and nurture her entire community" @THOAWproject @travelingjourno #thoawSA" coverup="28vI_"]
What surprised you most when you started this project?
"It was hard to believe they [men and women] never stepped into an internet cafe, they didn't know how to "google" something, they didn't know what it would be good for, how to use it, or where to find it. The basics of computers as simple as these are the little things we seem to take for granted sometimes."
How you can help
Okay, so here is where I encourage you to take action. Here are some options on how you can help: 1. Donate your iPhone (about 12 iPhones have been donated so far) 2. Purchase postcards and prints 3. Become a volunteer 4. Be a corporate sponsor 5. Share this – if you can share this post on Twitter or Facebook your community might enjoy it and there might be others who can help too. Just use one of the buttons below.
The Heart of a Woman Project empowers women impacted by poverty in developing communities through photography, mobile technology and social media, to create sustainable income and small business through the sales of their photographic art products. To learn more, visit the eKhaya eKasi community centre website.
Travel for Social Good is a series that features sustainable ideas and people around the world using travel to make a difference in the communities and cultures they visit. It's about building a better world by connecting and contributing locally when we travel and living in a more meaningful way.

Rampage is New Mr. T
Perhaps this belongs in Entertainment, but seeing it is Rampage, I figured it is good here. |
Quinton manager has already told MTV this is false. The sun is the one who originally broke the story, and anything they say can be taken with a massive grain of salt. Not that I'm saying rampage wouldn't do good job.
This has been proven a false rumor. Sorry, Rampage won't be doing his best Mr T impression.
www.fightpastor.com |
This is now officially happening. The UFC and Rampage have come to an agreement and he is the new B.A. Barakus. As exciting as this may sound, this movie will most likely be terrible.

New port: biology/consed viewing and editing workbench for sequence assembly Consed is a tool for viewing, editing, and finishing sequence assemblies. The port is constituted of 4 parts: biology/phred: base caller with quality evaluation biology/phrap: sequence assembler for shotgun sequencing biology/consed: workbench biology/phd2fasta: small utility All these can be used separately; however, most function of consed depends on the others. Although these programs are licensed freely for academic and nonprofit purposes, users have to contact the authors to get the softwares. Phred (including phd2fasta) and phrap are emailed, and consed can be downloaded to a restricted IP address. For commercial users, the licensing fee is ca. $10,000 at the time of writing.

Survival rate from fledging to breeding, or juvenile survival, is an important source of variation in lifetime reproductive success in birds. Therefore, determining the relationship between juvenile survival and environmental factors is essential to understanding fitness consequences of reproduction in many populations. With increases in density of individuals and depletion of food resources, quality of most habitats deteriorates during the breeding season. Individuals respond by dispersing in search of food resources. Therefore, to understand the influence of environmental factors on juvenile survival, it is also necessary to know how natal dispersal influences survival of juveniles. We examined effects of various environmental factors and natal dispersal behavior on juvenile survival of endangered Snail Kites (Rostrhamus sociabilis) in central and southern Florida, using a generalized estimating equations (GEEs) approach and model selection criteria. Our results suggested yearly effects and an influence of age and monthly minimum hydrologic levels on juvenile Snail Kite survival. Yearly variation in juvenile survival has been reported by other studies, and other reproductive components of Snail Kites also exhibit such variation. Age differences in juvenile survival have also been seen in other species during the juvenile period. Our results demonstrate a positive relationship between water levels and juvenile survival. We suggest that this is not a direct linear relationship, such that higher water means higher juvenile survival. The juvenile period is concurrent with onset of the wet season in the ecosystem we studied, and rainfall increases as juveniles age. For management purposes, we believe that inferences suggesting increasing water levels during the fledging period will increase juvenile survival may have short-term benefits but lead to long-term declines in prey abundance and possibly wetland vegetation structure.Additional Publication Details

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Samantha Power told a House panel on Wednesday that the U.S. opposes all unilateral actions that the Palestinians take to statehood. She says there are no shortcuts to statehood, and that any unilateral actions could be "tremendously destructive" to the peace process.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas had promised at one point to suspend Palestinian membership applications to United Nations agencies and international conventions. Israel, in turn, pledged to release 104 long-held Palestinian prisoners during the talks, which were to last until late April. But in a surprise move Tuesday, Abbas signed letters of accession to 15 international conventions, saying this was a response to Israel's failure to release the last of four groups of prisoners by the end of March.
