Day 1
... partner and employees who can run things while I am away. So with that taken care of, my mom and step-dad watching my dog, the mail stopped, and a friend mowing the lawn, I was all set to go!
I woke early this morning to make my final preparations on my packing. I had to sit on top of my suitcases in order to get them to close. Hopefully they are not over the weight limit. I am bringing two ...
This is the end, my only friend, the end
... parts of the USA and Mexico is coming to an end. I have a lot more riding to do, about 2400 km, but the fun part is over. I'm going to power home the rest of the way on the interstate and there's nothing fun about that. I've done and seen what I wanted to and I'm ready to come home. Colorado was a great place to end it for not only the two aforementioned reasons but also because one of my best buds, ...

When you get to the top you have to quickly unload and choose which hill you want to slide down. It slides down really fast and it was so fun, you could go down by yourself or there were double tubes where two people could go ...

That was overwhelming, especially after finding ourselves in the wrong terminal in the first place. We barely made it to our terminal and gate in time.

... my bike. I wasn't excited about the few hundred dollars I'd have to spend to get a good one, but it proved to be a wise decision. Since Coeur d'Alene is in June, lots of winter riding was in my future and I'm glad I accepted the fact that much of my initial bike riding would be indoors. Now that I've ridden outside for a few months I cringe at the thought of doing another workout in my living room, facing my deck, screen door open, listening to music on my iPad. In the dead ...

Starwood Waypoint pays $144 million for portfolio of 707 rental homes
Oakland-based Starwood Waypoint Residential Trust bought 707 single-family rental homes for $144 million
About half of the homes in the portfolio, known as Waypoint Fund XI, are in California and almost 20 percent are in Florida. The remaining homes are in the firm's target markets including Atlanta, Chicago, Phoenix, Dallas and Houston.
As the portfolio's name suggests, the homes were acquired and renovated by predecessor firm Waypoint Real Estate Group. On Feb. 3, Starwood Waypoint began trading on the New York Stock Exchange, following the combination of Waypoint and Starwood Property Trust's single-family and non-performing loan portfolios.
In the latest transaction, the portfolio of 707 homes, purchased for an average price of $203,678, is 91 percent leased.
"The acquisition of this high quality portfolio of homes advances our long-term growth strategy, provides immediate cash flow due to its occupancy rate, and provides the potential for strong current risk-adjusted total returns," said Gary Beasley, co-chief executive officer of Starwood Waypoint Residential Trust. (NYSE:SWAY)
The acquisition was financed using Starwood Waypoint's $500 million revolving credit facility with Citi. (NYSE: C)

Castro's dream for Cuba's artists
Is the US military reliant on indentured workers?
25 Mar 2010 03:20 GMT
Meeting Mitchell
The reportedly tense meeting was the first between the two leaders since relations between the two allies were soured by the Israeli announcement that 1,600 settler homes were to be built in occupied East Jerusalem.
Netanyahu delayed his departure from the US for further meetings with US officials on Wednesday as tension over the settlements lingered between the allies.
Obama's Middle East envoy, George Mitchell, met Netanyahu at the prime minister's hotel on Wednesday, and Israeli and US officials convened on the sidelines, but both sides gave no public sign of a breakthrough on the sensitive issue.
US officials have tried to get Israel to agree to suspend further Jewish home construction in East Jerusalem and to consent to discuss core issues such as borders and the status of Jerusalem in US-brokered "proximity" negotiations with Palestinians.
More building permits
But the meetings have been overshadowed by news that more building permits had been issued for the disputed city.
Just hours before the meeting between Obama and Netanyahu took place, the Jerusalem municipality said on its website that final permission had been granted for the construction of 20 housing units, shops and a carpark at the Shepherd hotel compound in Sheikh Jarrah, a Palestinian neighbourhood in East Jerusalem.
Netanyahu's office said the prime minister heard about the media reports of the project's approval half an hour before visiting the White House and did not know about it beforehand.
However, the building permit was reportedly issued last Thursday, three days after the necessary fees were paid, meaning the final approval was given before Netanyahu began his visit to Washington on Monday.
Jerusalem city hall said media reports on the subject were "distorted" and meant to provoke during Netanyahu's Washington trip.
"Once the construction permits have been paid for they are automatically issued," a spokesman said on Israeli public radio.
When the project was approved in July, Washington demanded it be halted and summoned Michael Oren, Israel's ambassador to the US, to be reprimanded.
PJ Crowley, the US state department spokesman, told The Associated Press news agency that the US and Israel were engaged in "give and take" after Washington was angered by the settlement announcement made during a visit by Joe Biden, the US vice-president.
"We are not going to talk about the precise steps both sides have to take. We will continue to discuss those steps privately," he said.
Netanyahu has shown little sign of giving in to US pressure over the settlement issue during his three-day US visit.
"If the Americans support the unreasonable demands made by the Palestinians regarding a freeze on settlements in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, the peace process risks being blocked for a year," the Israeli media quoted him as saying earlier on Tuesday."
Defiant Netanyahu
Those remarks came after a defiant speech to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (Aipac) on Monday.
"The Jewish people were building Jerusalem 3,000 years ago and the Jewish people are building Jerusalem today," Netanyahu said.
"Jerusalem is not a settlement. It's our capital."
Alon Liel, a professor of international relations at Tel Aviv University and the former head of Israel's foreign ministry, said "a very crucial moment" in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been reached.
"The international community as a whole has reached a conclusion that if we don't freeze settlements now, and establish a Palestinian state now, it will never happen," he told Al Jazeera.
"[Netanyahu is] the prime minister that has to decide if Israel wants to go on settling.
"It's not only the relations with the United States that is on stake. The Quartet is united on this issue and the Quartet [of Middle East mediators] is the world ... It's a decision if Israel is going to be internationally isolated or not.".
Israel has repeatedly said that it sees Jerusalem as the capital of a Jewish state and will not allow it to be divided.
The Palestinians want the predominantly Arab east of the city, which was illegally annexed by Israel after the 1967 Middle East war, as the capital of any future independent state.
The Palestinians retreated from their agreement to begin indirect talks two weeks ago after Israel announced its plans to build 1,600 homes for Jews in an area of the occupied West Bank annexed to Jerusalem.

Netanyahu says "Jerusalem is not a settlement" and Israel has right to build there.

So I'm considering getting a handgun and wanted some input. I really like the Ruger SR40c or SR9c. Anyone shot them? I had shot a M&P 40, which is very similar and like it except a little part by my thumb that I think will rub and bother me. So anyway, just putting it out there to see if there is any input.

I've contacted homeland security. By the way if you ever use a gun in a situation where a criminal is killing people talk radio has taught me that you will accidently murder at least 4 people. I've also learned from talk radio that the picture on a movie screen is constantly black and contains no light. Nor does a gun shot have any sound or light. Guns are bad man.

Smerf, your best bet is to go find a shooting range that rents guns and try a few out. I'm a Glock guy myself but that's because they just fit my hand better than other firearms. I like the weight and feel of the gun. Your mileage will vary based on your particular needs.

Miami home prices rose again in November, according to the Miami Association of Realtors.
The association reported the average sales price of single-family homes rose 17.4 percent in November to $377,918 compared to a year earlier, while the average sales price of Miami-Dade condominiums rose 22.9 percent to $285,512.
The association also bragged that Miami-Dade residential sales surged 23 percent in November compared to a year earlier. The sales of existing condominiums in Miami-Dade increased 19.8 percent. Sales of single-family homes increased 26.2 percent.
"It appears the Miami real estate market will set another record in 2012, exceeding sales levels at the height of the boom in 2005 and during the all-time record in 2011," said Miami Association of Realtors Chairwoman Martha Pomares. "Considering the shortage of housing inventory available, it is remarkable that sales remain this strong."

Topic: Pruning, Watering, Shrubs
Title: Failure to bloom of Texas Mountain Laurel
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:My +/- 4 yr old Tx. Mountain Laurel, has never bloomed. It is in full sun. I sometimes (minimal) fertilize it. I've pretty much planted it and let it grow. Its been pruned back last year when someone suggested that and it still hasn't helped. What else can I try?
You are not the only one to face this problem with Sophora secundiflora (Texas mountain-laurel). Please read this previous Mr. Smarty Plants answer to a similar question. Without being too repetitive, two or three possibilities come to mind. In the first place, you are in Houston, while this plant is used to growing in rocky soil on limestone ledges. This is not to say it won't grow in Houston, but make sure your drainage is very good. Your tree shouldn't be transplanted, it is very difficult to do so because of its roots, and if they are damaged the tree will most likely die. However, you can be careful not to have the tree in the path of any unusual water drainage, and water it much less than other garden plants. Second, this tree is often referred to as a "problematic" bloomer, meaning you might get blooms and you might not, period. Third, while its cultural information calls for full sun to part shade, it will bloom better in full sun. Prune after the flowering period (February to March), as it blooms on year-old wood, and cut way back on nitrogen fertilizer. Any plant will lose interest in blooming and put on more leaves if too much nitrogen is applied.

This is my second time staying at the Residence Inn I-75 in Gainesville, FL. The rooms are very spacious with huge suites. I really enjoy the ability to stretch out and seperate the work from sleeping area. Each room has a full size kitchen and very large bathroom. The customer service was superb too. I really enjoyed the free breakfast and managers special in the afternoon. They even use the grill tomake fresh food in the afternoons. My only quirk would be that the beds are a bit on the firm side but the pillows are nice and soft.

Traveling on business and it is what I have come to expect of a HGI. Nice rooms, great location. Very comfortable rooms, clean, comfortable and great value! The staff was friendly & helpful. I would definitely recommend. Thanks for a great stay.
Stayed here for a week whilst on a training course. Hotel is good, clean and the has a very good level of service. It's very handy for the restaurants nearby too for dinner.Breakfast is good, and the staff are attentive.Some of the receptionists could learn to smile a little more, you know who you are!Overall I was happy to stay here and would return if in the area.
This Hilton Garden Inn is very clean. The location was perfect, close to St. John's town center, and not too far from business at Florida State College Jacksonville. Great large LG flat screen TV, comfortable bedding and mattress. There is also a very nice large movie theatre right next door with extra time, this location would be even more perfect to go to a movie. There are a few restaurants in walking distance as well. I expected a little more, but the hotel is very clean and room well kept. It is almost time for a refresh with the paint, doors, furniture, artwork, etc. Ceiling in room had a bit of moisture marks, or water marks, not sure which. It is a popcorn ceiling, which shows most marks. Hotels like this really shouldn't really charge for breakfast. It's really not "breakfast". The staff was very nice. Location and cleanliness a plus. Great job housekeeping!
Easy off/on access to JTB (Butler Blvd) and I-95. This hotel is near food and entertainment and just a quick drive ro a huge shopping area, St. Johns Towne Center which must have every chain, large and small including Apple, Barnes and Noble, Panda Express, Target, Starbucks, Ulta, even Louis Vuitton, Loft, lululemon. Right next to the hotel is a movie theater and restaurants fast and slow. The room was clean with white sheets and a duvet that was white and clean (and readily washable so you know you aren't rolling into someone's DNA). Room was quiet, with lots of light, a microwave and a mini-fridge. The fitness center is worth checking out (two treadmills, one recumbent, one elliptical, one weight bench, and free weights). There was breakfast in the lobby area, but with so many choices in the area you might want to pass on the $12.95 buffet. The water pressure was good and with instant hot water. I will stay here again.
This Hilton Garden Inn was very clean. The room was comfortable, and I found the staff to be friendly and helpful. The location (a short drive to Town Center shopping and restaurants) was convenient. The gym was very small, but I didn't have problems getting a machine.
I'm used to HGI being a step up from the Hampton Brand but this location isn't. The decor is very blah. However, the front desk staff was nice - they corrected an error in my reservation which a call to the hotel the prior week had been promised but had not been handled. My 3 picky things are shower pressure, tv channels and fluffy towels. The towels are great. The shower pressure was on the low side. The flat-screen tv was large with a good range of channels (why do so many hotels have 4-5 ESPNs??) except no Comedy Central which was disappointing.
Our stay at the Hilton Garden Inn was wonderful. The manager Bob Ardnt and his staff went out of their way to see that we were happy. I travel to Jacksonville quite a bit for business and will make sure that this hotel will be our main place to stay while we are in town. Everything was great!

A year ago, the Celtics had about 28 feet worth of centers on their roster. This year they don't even have more than one O'Neal and everyone is worried about their lack of size as the season approaches. Everyone, that is, except coach Doc Rivers.
"I don't think the league's that big," Rivers said before the team hit the practice floor on Thursday at TD Garden. "It's not a big concern for me. I would love to have [size]. I'd rather have a better player than a taller player."
Given a choice, Rivers continued, "I'd rather have the skill. If I'm going to have a bad five or a skilled four, I'm taking the skilled four and we'll make it work."
The Celtics added two new frontcourt players in Brandon Bass and Chris Wilcox and neither is a center by trade, leaving just one true center on the roster in 33-year old Jermaine O'Neal who has a long history of injury problems. What the Celtics lack in height, they hope to make up for in versatility.
Here's where we get to David West, whose addition would have been perfect for this plan because he would have not only given the Celtics another excellent shooting big man, he also has a varied offensive game including a much-needed ability to score in the post. But West signed with the Pacers, leaving Rivers with a thin frontcourt that is just one injury away from trouble.
Acquiring West's was team president Danny Ainge's best shot in a league where Kwame Brown got a $7 million contract from Golden State. There simply aren't that many options for a team that is capped out and had so many roster spots to fill with the understandable goal of keeping the financial books clean for the summer of 2012. "We'd like somebody that can play and is big," Ainge said.
So, Rivers will go with what he has and their big man rotation at the moment is Bass, Wilcox, O'Neal and Kevin Garnett, who will also see time at the center position. Garnett and Wilcox have the size and length to guard centers and Bass has the strength. In fact, the 6-foot-8 Bass may be the team's nominal backup center.
Rivers said earlier in the week that if he has Bass and Wilcox on the floor together then Bass would probably draw the center matchup. He also likes the combination of Bass and Garnett. "That will be a lineup you'll see a lot," he said. "I like that lineup because they both spread the floor and they're both hard to guard."
Garnett is the key. He will play his 30 minutes a night and between O'Neal, Wilcox and Bass will divide up the other 66 frontcourt minutes depending on the matchups. In reality, declaring one player a four and the other a five isn't that important. Look around the league. The dominant center belongs to a different era. Using HoopData as a guide, there were just a dozen players classified as centers who saw more than 30 minutes per game last season.
Dwight Howard is obviously the league's most dominant big man and he will be a major problem for the Celtics, just like he is for every other team. Howard is the reason they stocked up on centers the last few years, but he's also just one man and the Celtics have shifted their attention to teams like Miami who had a serious matchup advantage up front during last year's playoffs.
Here's the list:
True centers: Howard, Andrew Bogut, Brook Lopez, Marc Gasol, Nene.
Big power forwards: Al Horford, Al Jefferson, Emeka Okafor, David Lee, Joakim Noah.
Bargnanis: Andrea Bargnani, Channing Frye.
You'll notice there are some other names missing. Players like Tyson Chandler, Andrew Bynum, DeAndre Jordan, Roy Hibbert, Chris Kaman, Marcin Gortat and, of course, Kendrick Perkins. They all clock in between 25-30 minutes a night and while some are more skilled offensively than others, none of them are their team's focal points.
"If we have enough fours who can play both and we have enough fouls we can get away with it," Rivers said.
Rivers praised Greg Stiemsma, a veteran of the D-League and several overseas journeys, after Thursday's practice and the Celtics like his toughness and ability to block shots. If they don't make another move, he may have a chance to stick, but the Celtics main problem is simply a lack of depth. O'Neal and Garnett have both had significant injury issues in the past and losing one for any length of time would be difficult. Losing two would be a disaster.
If you can't match height vertically, the next best option is stretching the court horizontally. The Celtics needed two things to remake their frontline: shooting and athleticism and Bass and Wilcox are expected to provide both. (Rookie JaJuan Johnson may fit into this mix, as well. He's not a banger but he can shoot and Rivers has been impressed by his athletic ability. He's also, obviously, a rookie).
The Celtics were among the league's top shooting teams last season, but that was mainly due to standout seasons from Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. No one is expecting Pierce or Allen's production to tumble dramatically, but it's not wise to have to rely on them to duplicate such excellence, either. Even with their shooting prowess, the Celtics offense ranked below league average in efficiency owing to a terrible turnover rate, an ineffective bench, almost zero post-up game (again, West would have been invaluable in that regard) and an inability/reluctance to work the offensive glass.
Wilcox shot 58 percent last season and does most of his work around the basket where he converted 70 percent of his shots at the rim, one of the higher marks in the league among big forwards. He's not an elite offensive rebounder, but he's not far off and the Celtics ranked dead last in offensive rebounding rate by a wide margin.
"Most of the time fours and five are switching anyway so there's not really not that much of a difference," Wilcox said. "Everybody's got something different to their game so if you bring something different to the table you might have something that the other man doesn't."
What Wilcox brings is energy and athleticism. His best years came with Seattle from 2006-2008 when he averaged 13 points and seven rebounds, but his career hit a roadblock after the team moved to Oklahoma City.
He was traded to New York where he saw limited playing time and then moved to Detroit where minutes were also scarce. Wilcox turned it on in the final month of the season, scoring double figures in 11 of the final 16 games and posting his best season statistically since his glory days as a Sonic. The key, as it's been throughout his career, is tapping into that potential.
"We've got to get something out of Chris," Rivers said. "I think he can really play. I don't think he's ever really had to play. He's never been in the playoffs. If we can get him to have a mind change, he can be good for us."
Bass is exactly the opposite. He generated 70 percent of his offense on jump shots, hitting 47 percent of his attempts from 16-23 feet, ranking alongside players like Garnett and West, and he is also strong and athletic enough to finish inside.
"I like that he can score, number one, before anything else," Rivers said. "Great pick and pop player. Not bad in ISO situations away from the basket. We need that coming off the bench. I like that he just plays hard. Low maintenance, just plays hard, and that's something we were looking at."
The Celtics need their new frontcourt rotation to stay healthy and productive, two areas that were a major concern for the entire second unit last season, but particularly up front. With the exception of Glen Davis, who played both frontcourt positions, Rivers was limited in what he could use around Garnett. His centers were almost always injured and with Garnett playing 30-32 minutes a night there was no depth at the big forward position, leaving Davis often overextended and overworked.
The same held true for the four All-Stars. There were too many nights when Pierce, Allen and Rajon Rondo had to play big minutes and just as importantly, too many times when they and Garnett built leads that were wasted by an ineffective bench.
Of the Celtics 10 most productive lineups last season, six featured all four of their All-Stars and nine had at least three of them on the floor, per Basketball Value. Conversely, they struggled mightily whenever there were less than two of them playing at the same time.
"This year I'm hoping that [we can use] one at most at times," Rivers said. "If we can get away with one of them on the floor and still play well, that's huge."
It's huge because the Celtics will play 66 games in 124 days. They're no different from anyone else in that regard, but Rivers can't afford to burn his star players out in March if they're going to have any chance in May. Bass, Wilcox and Johnson are younger, more versatile, more athletic and more skilled offensively than what the Rivers had to work with last season and at the very least that is a positive development.

Beastman is an artist based in Sydney. Influenced by the beauty and symbolism behind nature's repetitive geometric patterns and organic lines, Beastman's tightly detailed, often symmetrical paintings depict a parallel world of hope and survival inhabited by his beastlike yet beautiful and emotive characters. Gripped by fear, anger, stress, jealousy, lust, confusion and paranoia, these instantly recognisable and loveable creatures reflect human nature and the everyday burdens and struggles of life that mankind so easily and continuously finds itself lost in. One of the most distinctive and prolific emerging artists in Australia and founder and editor of the online art publication [weAREtheIMAGEmakers], Beastman has exhibited extensively throughout Australia, as well as London, Berlin and New Zealand. He has curated and organised numerous art exhibitions and events, has designed skateboards and graphics for various brands including Element, Folklore, Mingo Lamberti, The Art Park and Lowlife of London and has also been commissioned to create artwork for Hyundai, Smirnoff, Red Bull, Stone & Wood Brewery, Tiger Beer and Huawei.+ More details

A most amazing find has been uncovered three miles west of Jerusalem. While workers were excavating for Israel's Highway 1, a 2,750-year-old temple was found. The temple held a treasure trove of figurines, which suggest the place was a onetime home to a ritual cult.

Published in Middle East
Keywords: Jerusalem, temple, Tel Motza, figurines
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The Israeli Antiquities Authority says the discovery was made during preparations for a new section of the planned highway.
"The ritual building at Tel Motza is an unusual and striking find, in light of the fact that there are hardly any remains of ritual buildings of the period in Judaea at the time of the First Temple," excavation directors Anna Eirikh, Hamoudi Khalaily and Shua Kisilevitz were quoted as saying.
According to the Bible, the First Temple was built in Jerusalem by Solomon, son of King David, and archaeologists estimate that construction was undertaken in the 10th century B.C.
The Tel Motza temple must have been active in an era "prior to the religious reforms throughout the kingdom at the end of the monarchic period (at the time of Hezekiah and Isaiah), which abolished all ritual sites, concentrating ritual practices solely at the Temple in Jerusalem," The excavation's directors said.
Tel Motza is thought to have been associated with the ancient settlement called "Mozah" in the Book of Joshua. Archaeologists had uncovered a large structure with storehouses and a number of silos in previous excavations. Authorities say that the structure might have served as a storage facility for Jerusalem's grain supplies.
Among the many striking fixtures, the temple has massive walls and a wide, east-facing entrance. This falls in line with the tradition of temple construction at the time. "The rays of the sun rising in the east would have illuminated the object placed inside the temple first, symbolizing the divine presence within," authorities say.
Archaeologists found what appeared to be a square altar inside, which included a cache of ritual items. Those items included fragments of pottery chalices, decorated ritual pedestals and two types of pottery figurines. Some of the figurines represented animals, such as horses in harnesses, while others had human-like heads with curling hair and flat headdresses. Such figurines hint at the influence of Philistine coastal culture.
"The find of the sacred structure, together with the accompanying cache of sacred vessels, and especially the significant coastal influence evident in the anthropomorphic figurines, still require extensive research," the directors said.

Alabama-AG: Troy King's Strange Political Demise?
As he seeks another term, Alabama Attorney General Troy King probably will lose in today's Republican primary. The biggest reason why is that he's gotten on the wrong side of Alabama Republican heavyweights on the number one issue in the state: electronic bingo.
While the present political mood certainly isn't kind to incumbents, you'd be hard-pressed to find one in worse shape than Troy King (at least this side of Jim Gibbons). King, Alabama's attorney general, appears quite likely to be defeated in the Republican primary today.
The biggest reason why is that he's gotten on the wrong side of Alabama Republican heavyweights on the number one issue in the state: electronic bingo.
Don't laugh: Electronic bingo is a serious matter in Alabama. The feud between King and Gov. Bob Riley, a fellow Republican who appointed King attorney general in 2006, has centered on Alabama's Task Force on Illegal Gambling. Here's a good summary of the situation from Charles Dean of the Birmingham News (no link available):
Riley and King, once friends and political allies, have engaged in a bitter battle over the legality of electronic bingo for several years. Riley contends electronic bingo machines are illegal slot machines. King has said Alabama law allows electronic bingo to be played in some locations, and the machines are not slot machines.
Riley formed the task force in late 2008 and did not include King as a member. The task force in March 2009 raided the White Hall electronic bingo complex in Lowndes County, where it seized 105 machines and more than $500,0000 in cash.
Earlier this year, the task force attempted a series of raids at other casinos, only to be stopped either by lower court orders or because the gambling operations shut down before raids could be carried out. Greene County officials vowed to oppose any effort by the task force to shut down Greenetrack, including using county deputies to repel the task force.
If this were nothing more than a disagreement over policy (King for electronic bingo, Riley against it), the attorney general might be in alright shape. Alabama's socially conservative Republicans historically have been skeptical of gambling, but polls do show that most Alabamians support electronic bingo.
But, Riley and Strange seem to have succeeded in casting into question King's motives by highlighting his close ties to gambling interests. The issue has become King's ethics, not just his views on bingo. One result is that Alabama's two Republican U.S. senators also are supporting Strange. And, a poll from early last month showed the challenger with a remarkable 25-point lead.
