No Kool-Aid flavorings, either -- forget the cranberry, pineapple, apple liqueurs. We're traditionalists, if not purists. Think Nick Charles, still in his silk pajamas, scanning the afternoon newspapers, shaking off a hangover and Nora's pooch, Asta. Nick knows a true and proper martini is several parts gin, a hint of vermouth and a whole lot of affectation. You are, after all, sophisticated, aren't you? And a martini simply tastes better in a sophisticated setting, surrounded by adults. We head for the Ritz-Carlton in Clayton, an oasis for businessmen and corporate bagmen whose assignations necessitate a measure of wealth. The bar's in the plush lobby, replete with leather-and-wood accoutrements and a few marble busts. We've now entered the cemetery for youthful idealism. Our Beefeater martini's a flat $10 a pop, but who the hell cares -- especially after the second one. It's all so sophisticated.

To make sausage gravy, use 1 pound breakfast sausage, hot or mild, along with all-purpose flour and whole milk. Infuse with seasoned salt and freshly ground black pepper, and serve with warm biscuits. Preparation time is 25 minutes and cook time is 20 minutes. The recipe yields 12 servings.
Using your hands, rip the sausage into small pieces, and place the pieces in a single layer in a large heavy skillet. Cook the sausage over medium-high heat until it browns, and adjust the heat to medium-low. Slowly add 1/3 cup all-purpose flour a little bit at a time. As the sausage soaks up the flour, pour more into the skillet. Once the flour dissolves, cook for an additional minute, stirring as you mix in 3 to 4 cups whole milk.
Add 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt and 2 teaspoons ground black pepper; season with additional pepper if desired. Keep cooking and stirring for approximately 10 to 12 minutes until the gravy grows thick. If the gravy becomes too thick in consistency, add an additional 1/2 cup milk or more. Once cooked, taste the gravy and include more seasonings if necessary. Pour the sausage gravy over the warm biscuits and serve at once.

Kristin Chenoweth needs a fishing rod for all the compliments she was trying to get from paps yesterday.
Usually a pretty actress doesn't need photogs to tell her how hot she is -- but Kristin took a different approach, as she had the paps assist her in picking out some new outfits -- and then they helped pick up her self-esteem!
At least she didn't have them changing her tires!

Why You Want Lash Extensions Now!
Of all of the must-have beauty products women list, the one found most frequently at the top is mascara. Why? Because a set of stunning, lengthy, dark lashes is the equivalent of finding the perfect summer dress – one thing is all you need!
Long lashes a la the Kardashians, Beyonce, and Katy Perry (the list could go on and on and on…) are desirable for so many reasons, but, most of all, these fluttering duos make you look awake, fresh, young, and, of course, flirtatious. And while there are lots of ways you can work on your lashes on your own at home, these daily rituals require you to invest a lot of time, which is something very few of us have enough of. Add in the necessary skill you need to make fake lashes look great, and you begin to understand why everyone isn't walking around with fabulously long, full eyelashes.
But, if you've been keeping your eyes peeled, you may have noticed that more and more women you run into, from yoga class to the coffee bar, your office to school pick-ups, are sporting enviable lashes.
Which may leave you wondering, do they really have that much time? Chances are they don't.
Today, women are turning to one of Hollywood's little secrets in order to deliver knock-out lashes day after day: Lash Extensions.
And, here are five reasons you should be getting lash extensions now, too!
Save Time. Getting eyelash extensions makes your lashes darker, longer, and fuller, which means there is much less you need to do in order to get ready in the morning. While there is an investment in time at getting them applied (it generally takes about 2 to 3 hours), that amount of time is nothing when you consider how long you typically take applying (and taking off) makeup each and every day.
Look Younger. Eyelash extensions will make anyone look younger, simply because fuller, thicker lashes are associated with younger people. As you age (sorry to bring that up!) your lashes naturally get thinner and lighter, and for some people shorter, which also makes you look more tired. You will be amazed at what a difference eyelash extensions make to your completely natural appearance!
Wear Less Makeup. A side effect of getting eyelash extensions is that you will find yourself wearing less and less makeup. Part of it is recommended (experts say you shouldn't apply mascara to lash extensions), but the other part is that you will just feel like you don't need it!
Choose Your Look. With so many different styles and designs to choose from, it's not hard to find the eyelash extensions that are a perfect fit for your look. Whether you want a more understated look or full on glam, you can find the brand that's right for you. Eyelash extensions also come in different material types. The three most common are synthetic, silk, and mink. Each style has its benefits and, after seeing them in person, you should be able to pretty easily decide which is right for you.
People Will Notice. And, yes, in a very, very good way. Most women who get eyelash extensions report receiving loads of compliments after having the service done. And this shouldn't come as a shock, especially if you've seen extensions on others. They really do make you look (and feel) amazing.
Long (or super long depending on your personal style) story short, you should run, not walk, to get your eyelash extensions. But, be warned, you will become addicted. And, as with any beauty service, be sure you do your homework first. Check to ensure that you go to a trained professional who uses quality products and who understands how to apply extensions without potentially damaging the ones you have.

Several exercises stretch the piriformis muscle, and an introductory stretch involves sitting cross-legged on the floor for several minutes each day. As piriformis flexibility grows, other stretches that involve a greater degree of movement continue to help the muscle strengthen and become more flexible, according to About.com.
Another piriformis muscle stretch involves crossing one leg on top of the other, resting an ankle on the knee of the opposite leg. Pushing down on the interior of the knee while leaning forward slowly yields a mild stretch in the piriformis, according to About.com.
The lying piriformis stretch is a more extreme stretch, and it is carried out while lying on the back on the floor. Cross the left leg over the right, leaving the left ankle on the right knee. Pick up the right foot, and bring it towards the head while gently pressing on the inside of the left knee. Hold this position for up to 30 seconds before repeating it, according to About.com.
The piriformis is actually located beneath the gluteus muscles. Its purpose is to laterally stabilize and rotate the hips. Athletes who enjoy running sports can experience a tight piriformis. When the piriformis muscle compresses the sciatic nerve, pain runs deep through the buttocks and hips, as stated by About.com.

He is crawling super fast & is all over the place now. He pulls himself up to a standing position every chance he gets, & can use pretty much anything to do so - even the wall. He is cruising around like a champ as well.
He still wants to eat everything we eat, & much prefers "real" food to baby food. He's still just a little thing though, only 18 pounds.
He goes to bed at night easily, usually between 7 & 8 pm, & sleeps through the night (thank you Luke). I put him to bed awake & he puts himself to sleep - crazy, huh? I say this because not much has ever been real easy with Luke - he had a serious case of colic that STILL lingers. But even with the constant fuss, he's still a very smiley baby - & oh, does he love to smile - big open mouth smiles, small shy smiles, & one-sided crooked smiles - it's seriously the sweetest smile I've ever seen (I know, I'm biased!).
He has started waving - bye bye & hello! It's so cute. He waves at everyone too which makes it even cuter. I swear Luke has NO sense of stranger danger - he likes anyone who pays attention to him or just looks at him. I'm not sure if this is a good or bad thing yet.
His new favorite book is a little board book that my sweet friend Shelley gave him - thank you Shelley! It's the song "If You're Happy & You Know It" made into a book. Oh my gosh, Luke loves loves loves it. He will sit in my lap & listen to it over & over, & if I stop (because there's only so many times I can sing that song) he will cry until I sing it again. I love it.
He loves to play with his toys most days - his daycare teacher said that he "plays hard". I thought that was so funny & the perfect description of him. He still LOVES Sesame Street - I mean really loves it. A lot. And so do I because it will usually calm him down pretty quickly if he's upset.
So, I could be totally imagining this, but I swear that he is copying some things I say - 2 words I can think of now are "kitty" and "uh-oh". He doesn't say it clearly, but is really trying to say it, even using the same tone as me. I think this means he's going to be really smart - ha!
He just started doing this thing where he scrunches up his little nose & face & makes small sniffle sounds - kind of like he's sniffing something that smells weird. We don't know where he learned it, but now we do it back & forth with him. I think he does it when he's happy.
And I hope that he is happy forever.
I love my baby bear.
Here are some pics taken this past weekend at a new trail on the greenbelt in our neighborhood.

As we learn to code, we have probably all experienced the frustration of stumbling over the basics and feeling like we will never get to the more advanced material because we keep forgetting the simplest things. How do we remember that HTML command or learn that CSS protocol to make the magic happen on the page a little faster? How do we, like the pros, keep the basics in the forefront of our minds where we need them so we can become pros, too?
Paradigm Shift
I don't know about you, fellow classmates, but when I signed up for Writing on the Web, I didn't read the course description. It simply sounded like a good class to take to be better prepared for the multi-modal-ness that has infused the writing profession.
From the name of the class, I thought we would be learning some design principles concerning texts or visuals that make for interesting websites; you know, as in, Writing FOR the Web. I assumed we would be working with template applications like Word Press, Jigsy, or Weebly. With these apps, we only have to learn how to use a limited set of functions already thought out and laid out for us.
Despite the ease of these and other Web 2.0 features, the learning curve is high for me because I don't know much about computers or using these programs. Coupled with assignment deadlines and never having enough time in the day to explore and experiment at my leisure, thoughts of the above ventures onto the Web were intimidating enough.
After the first class and a good look at the syllabus, I realized I should have been thinking about the class along the lines of Writing THE Web. We are going into the Web, Dr. Martin informed us, not just onto it! As it sank in that we would be learning to write computer code so we could build our own websites (:-0), truly, I was downright nervous.
As the weeks have progressed in class, though, my interest and fascination for programming languages has become stronger than my intimidation: I want to go into the Web instead of just onto it; I want to thoroughly learn this skill; I want to be able to code my own work. And the faster, the better. But how to do that when there is so little time and so much to know?
How the Pros Do(n't) It
I chose this topic as one of my three blog articles so I could answer these questions. Because I knew I would have to do tons of research for these articles, I thought it would be a great way to inform and to help us as a class with any "noob" frustrations that were sure to reveal themselves as the class and the code progressed. I couldn't think of a better way to find the time to study how veteran coders learn and retain all they know than to think of it as a requirement for class.
However, I was not expecting what I have learned about the subject: How the pros memorize code is, mostly, they don't! Many experienced programmers swear it is not necessary to memorize commands because the more we use them, the more embedded in our long-term memory they will become. Few, if any, of us will ever be able to memorize all the commands associated with a program; even coders of many years still use "cheat sheets."
The majority claim ". . . [i]t is more important to know how to look it up rather than to know the information itself." (programmers.stackexchange) They point out that as long as there is a solution to a problem encountered (sometimes there isn't!) and an accurate programmer resource like Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) or w3schools is referenced, that is enough. In other words, they preach what our parents always preached when they wanted to annoy us: "Look it up!"
They blow off the extra time spent and the ribbing we will surely take when other programmers see us using a ref manual every step of the way. Do it anyway, they say, and be grateful that reference manuals are there to guide us. It is far more productive to understand the concepts behind the function rather than to recall the function itself. If we understand why an attribute, a tag, or a selector is used, knowing what to do to create it will come more intuitively, the experts assure. (blog.treehouse)
Programmers advise against rote memorization for exactly that reason—our goal should be to hone our intuition skills, not memorization skills. Tom, a developer commenting on an article about the subject of code memorization apps at smashingmagazine.com, says, "That's not a learning program, but a way to memorize facts." [Emphasis added.]
Another reason this is a best practice is because the programming languages change so rapidly. Again, understanding the underlying connections between computers and programming will always serve us better than knowing many commands in just one or two languages. As we strive to fully understand the concepts of developing, we will save ourselves a lot of new "basics" learning when Ruby goes off her Rails and onto something else. When she does, or when we get those fabulous tech jobs where Python or PHP is used, knowing the principles that all languages share will allow us to apply them regardless of the fact that we may not yet know the syntax or specifics of these languages. (This is also when we will be very thankful for the ingrained habit of reaching for our handy-dandy, accurate, reference manuals!)
Programmers think that memorization might have a limited usefulness, but warn that it makes us lazy and being lazy about really learning or collaborating on new methods poses the risk of us getting stuck in a familiar rut, a comfort zone that lacks creativity or curiosity. It is constantly exposing ourselves to new techniques and then patiently, but consistently, practicing and applying them that pays dividends.
We should be creating something all the time, whether it is a mistake-ridden first attempt at a new trick or a masterpiece of perfection, it makes no difference. Just keep coding because that is the only way. We will notice that our code consequently gets better as we gain more knowledge and hands-on experience.
Getting heavily involved in open source projects and sharing our own creations with others to receive feedback are also critically important ways to properly and truly learn code and understand the deeper complexities of computer science and programming.
But, If You Insist . . .
Yet, there are times when we as new coders might feel the need to recall more automatically some of the foundational steps in JavaScript, CSS, or another language. For such a time as this, recording and studying a function or a piece of code in an app like Anki, a stacked repetition program, can help. The stacked repetition technique is a glamorous way of saying we can make and use flash cards for frequent study. We no longer have to spend hours hand-writing on index cards, though; applications on our computers and phones have taken some of the labor out of the process. Anki is perhaps the most well-known, but there are several other programs like it: Revisy, Supermemo (not free!), and Memrise, to name a few.
Programmers have better strategies than memorization for keeping up with code they want to refer to in the future. An expert in her own right, our very own Professor Martin has revealed in class that she practices the following and has strongly advised that we should consider doing so, too. Other seasoned programmers offer the same advice.
Keeping a code journal in an editor like Gistbox, "the beautiful way to organize code snippets," to copy and paste code for future reference and practice is an invaluable learning tool.
Evernote invites us to use their "workspace for your life's work." Do any of us feel like the code we are working so hard to learn is not our life's work? Using this or a similar app to record detailed notes while learning is another way to regularly study and review code and methods with which we are trying to get familiar.
Much can be learned from looking at the source elements in websites we like to find out how the programmer turned a cool trick we would like to imitate—write it down or copy and paste into a note-taking editor and then go practice it!
Just as valuable as studying on our own, open source spaces like CodePen—they bill themselves as "the developer's playground," who can resist?—will get us in the know faster and give us experience working with other programmers. CodePen is also an excellent resource for learning by studying what others are doing and how they are doing it.
The best way to learn something is to repeat it and apply it over and over as quickly after being exposed to it as possible. The more hands-on we are with it and the more we apply the item or information we want to retain in context, and especially, the more we collaborate as we learn, the faster and easier it will happen.
That is not to say that learning, or even memorizing, code is easy, especially when new to a language or trying to learn a few languages at a time. But with practice, patience, and a little self-forgiveness, we will be able to recall the proper command when we need it. If not, we can always do what the pros do and look it up.

A Present: Quotes for Inquiry
"If someone wishes for good health, one must first ask oneself if he is ready to do away with the reasons for his illness. Only then is it possible to help him." ~ Hippocrates
"... and i said to my body. softly. 'i want to be your friend.' it took a long breath. and replied 'i have been waiting my whole life for this...' ~ Extract from the poem Three by Nayyirah Waheed
"The Body Craves Truth. For years, I kept my truth bottled up inside. I stuffed it down. I covered it up with masks. I allowed myself to be silenced so I wouldn't make waves. I wanted people to like me. I wanted to blend in. But my body hated it. My body started to whisper - and then it started to yell." ~ Lissa Rankin
At some point, all the horizontal trips in the world stop compensating for the need to go deep, into somewhere challenging and unexpected; movement makes most sense when grounded in stillness. In an age of speed, I began to think, nothing could be more more invigorating than going slow. In an age of distraction, nothing could feel more luxurious than paying attention. And in an age of constant movement, nothing is more urgent than sitting still." ~ Pico Iyer
"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate." ~ Carl Jung
"Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." ~ Viktor Frank
"Whatever the irritant is, the actual source of your irritation is far deeper than that. You can tell that that's the case whenever your response to a minor irritant is out of proportion." ~ Gary Zukav
"Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity." ~ Pema Chödrön
"Rub your eyes and look again at Love with Love." ~ Rumi
"The time will come when, with elation you will greet yourself arriving at your own door, in your own mirror, and each will smile at the other's welcome, and say, sit here. Eat. ... You will love again the stranger who was your self. Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life, whom you ignored for another, who knows you by heart. ... Take down the love letters from the bookshelf, the photographs, the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror. Sit. Feast on your life." ~ Derek Wallcott

In a continent of 54 registered UEFA nations, three of these countries make up 40% of the 32 teams in the UEFA Champions League this year.
Does this mean that it has morphed into a competition mainly for the elite leagues in Europe, rather than a champion's league?
On top of this, Spain are the first nation to have five teams competing in the group stages. This was a result of recent UEFA rule changes meaning that the Europa League winners are granted an automatic qualifying spot this year. This meant 5th placed La Liga side Sevilla qualified.
Do you have what it takes? Sign up today and send over your 250 word test article: https://gms.to/haveyoursay3
In addition, Spain received three automatic slots and one entry at the playoff stage. As has been common recently, England and Germany also have four teams in the competition this season.
The original format of the competition allowed only the reigning champions and domestic league winners the opportunity to compete in the tournament. From 1991, the format steadily evolved to include group stages and extra knock-out rounds.
This led to the most drastic change when, in 1998, UEFA decided that they would allow multiple entrants from certain countries. This eventually evolved into the current footballing dynasty that the 'elite' leagues now benefit from.
Worth noting is that teams from Belarus, Croatia, Sweden, Israel, Belgium, and Kazakhstan have managed to qualify this year. Most, however, battled through several rounds of qualifying despite having won their respective leagues.
On top of this, all six of them ended up in Pot 4, having fallen victim to the seeding system. This means they have been fed to the European lions and will have very little hope of ever progressing beyond the group stage.
An alternative format
One argument that rears its head every so often is to once again revamp the competition. However, this time it could be to ensure automatic qualification for a greater number of countries. As the system currently stands, well-supported teams from smaller domestic leagues could be forgiven for thinking that the competition isn't meant for them.
After some analysis here is a radical alternative that could revitalise the competition by introducing different teams each year and naturally re-distributing finances throughout Europe.
In the comparative international tournament, the UEFA European Championships, it is now the top 24 countries – rather than 16 - that compete every four years out of a possible 54. That compares to 17 in the UCL this year while only 12 of these countries were guaranteed spots.
If the club competition was to mirror the international tournament then the leagues of the top 24 countries in UEFA's coefficient ranking system would be entitled to one guaranteed place in the UCL for their domestic champions.
No doubt that many fans of big clubs playing in the biggest leagues will be panicking at this idea – namely any team that hasn't won a title for a while – so it'd be important to ensure the most successful leagues are still rewarded.
The top six countries in UEFA's coefficient - currently Spain, Germany, England, Italy, France and Portugal – would all be granted one additional guaranteed place in the group stages for teams finishing second in their top league. Arsenal and Manchester United fans will not be satiated by this compromise but since when was finishing 3rd or 4th considered worthy of reward?
Automatic qualification would also still be granted to the winner of the UEFA Europa League. To allow even further representation, a solitary spot would also be up for grabs to the four countries in positions 25-28, through two knock-out rounds. Another big plus to this format would be that teams would no longer have to endure seemingly endless qualification rounds.
These changes would mean that either 25 or 26 different nations would have a representative each season, improving financial distribution between countries and giving more of an opportunity to clubs from smaller countries.
This format would also benefit the Europa League as teams such as Arsenal and Manchester United, who finished third and fourth respectively in the EPL last season, would enter this competition. This would attract more lucrative TV deals and ultimately more prestige and finance.
According to this format, this year's UCL would have included:
1. Barcelona (Spain)
2. Real Madrid (Spain)
3. Bayern Munich (Germany)
4. VfL Wolfsburg (Germany)
5. Chelsea (England)
6. Manchester City (England)
7. Juventus (Italy)
8. Roma (Italy)
9. PSG (France)
10. Lyon (France)
11. Benfica (Portugal)
12. Porto (Portugal)
13. Zenit St. Petersburg (Russia)
14. Dynamo Kiev (Ukraine)
15. KAA Gent (Belgium)
16. PSV (Netherlands)
17. Basel (Switzerland)
18. Galatasaray (Turkey)
19. Viktoria Plzen (Czech Republic)
20. Olympiakos (Greece)
21. Steaua Bucarest (Romania)
22. Dinamo Zagreb (Croatia)
23. Salzburg (Austria)
24. APOEL (Cyprus)
25. Lech Poznan (Poland)
26. Malmo (Sweden)
27. Maccabi Tel Aviv (Israel)
28. BATE Borisov (Belarus)
29. Midtjylland (Denmark)
30. Molde (Norway)
31. Europa League Winners: Sevilla (Spain)
32. The remaining spot would have been taken by one of Celtic (Scotland), Qarabag (Azerbaijan), Partizan Belgrade (Serbia), or FC Astana (Kazakhstan) through qualifying rounds.
Obviously this format would mean some massive clubs would have missed out, these include, Atletico Madrid, Valencia, Bayern Leverkusen, CSKA Moscow and as mentioned above, Arsenal and Manchester United too.
What do you think? Should UEFA be concerned about the lack of country diversity?
Would this format be fairer?

The flight was pretty bumpy due to strong winds, and we arrived in Holguin airport at around 8PM, later than expected. The checks at Holguin airport went by quickly, but once loaded on the bus to the hotel, we had to wait quite a while for all passengers to get on the bus. We finally left the airport for a long ride, just under 2.5 hours, to Brisas Covarrubias. The way was really dark so we didn't really see much - but the road was extremely bumpy at times, but bearable.
When we got to the hotel at about 11:30PM, nothing was going on to welcome the new guests. In the lobby there were only a few hotel workers and there was only one worker in the front desk to check everyone in. Our bus was full, so check-in took over an hour. Once we got the keys to our room, we were walked there (in the dark, no real lighting at some areas of the hotel) by a worker. Once we arrived at our room, which was at the back end of the hotel, we realized that the magnetic keys did not work. The worker said he cannot do anything, and told us to take the keys back to the reception. We went back and asked them to fix our keys, but they said the keys were fine, and that the problem was in the door lock itself. They promised to send someone to fix it. We waited in the lobby, it looked like nobody was coming. After arguing with the guy at the front desk for about an hour, he finally asked a worker to fix our door. We were finally let into our room, and the lock was fixed. Now, it was almost 1AM, and since the restaurant closes there at 9PM, only the snack bar was open. They served some pineapple and oranges, and small sandwiches. Nothing impressive, nobody really ate anything, just took a few drinks and went to bed.
All the rooms of the hotel are situated in 2-storey buildings. To our surprise, we got an ocean-view room on the second floor, at the back end of the hotel. The room was very spacious, and seemed in pretty good condition. There was a large balcony with an ocean-view. You could actually hear the waves at night.
The room also had a mini-fridge, which was equipped only with a 1.5L water bottle upon arrival, which was never restocked. Our room also had 2 double beds instead of a king bed, and every time we requested the change, the front desk worker told us that many excuses about why he cannot change our room, each time a different excuse, so we didn't bother. The only downside in the room was that it was not cleaned well (upon our arrival), stains and dust everywhere, especially on the bathroom and sink. The rest of the week the room didn't seem to get any cleaner (despite tips/gifts).
Another important point about this hotel is that because it is isolated, the water containers are transported by trucks to the hotel. The hotel is not connected to a water system. So, at some times, the water either runs out or the hotel turns it off in order to save the water, and you are left with no water whatsoever in the room/lobby. So many complaints were reported to the management regarding the water, but nobody seemed to care - not sure if they had any control over it.
The food at the main restaurant was pretty good. Sometimes they ran out of some fruits (guava and papaya mostly) but there was always something to eat. Breakfast consisted of a made-to-order eggs (with toppings), fresh bread, a narrow selection of cereal, yogurt, juice, fruit, and desserts. A simple salad bar (tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, lettuce, spinach) with a variety of dressings, a few choices for a meat/fish (chicken/pork/lamb/swordfish/etc.), rice, etc. There was usually pizza (one sort) for lunch, and there was always pasta for dinner (make-to-order with your choice of toppings) and usually one kind of soup too. The food was generally very filling and pretty delicious for Cuba. It got a bit repetitive though. One downside about the restaurant is that it isn't large enough to accommodate all the people at the hotel at the same time, so even though the hotel was not full when we were there, they locked the restaurant when it got full during dinner, and people had to form a lineup outside, by the locked restaurant door, waiting for tables to get free to get in.
The snack bar which is open 24 hours serves hot dogs, grilled cheese sandwiches, and fries. It was really good. The pool bar right beside it is open 24 hours as well. The only down side to the bar is that they do not make pina colada from scratch - they use the pre-made slushie instead and just add the rum and liquor to it. The espressos and cappuccinos at the pool bar were great as well! There's also a swim-up bar in the pool, which was not crowded at all, nobody really swam in the pool - everyone preferred the ocean.
The beach bar is open for lunch from noon to 3, and has a small a-la-carte lunch menu, which includes soup, hotdogs, hamburgers, fries, salad, and fruit. It's open-air, practically on the beach, and really is a pleasant place to eat if the weather's nice. The drinks at the beach bar are the same as at the lobby/pool bar, except they do not serve espressos or cappuccinos there.
The a-la-carte restaurant is located by the beach bar. Most people get 1 dinner per stay, but you could reserve another dinner if there is availability. Each night there's a different theme (alternates between italian and seafood). We went for the seafood dinner which was pretty good, a 3-course meal, but most of the food at the a-la-carte is exactly the same as in the main restaurant, but with a smaller selection. Anyhow it's a nice change!
The hotel has a beautiful, white sand beach. On one side of the beach there's a lagoon with mangroves. You could go on adventures there too (by foot or by boat, we did both).
The hotel offers non-motorized water sports: kayaks and pedal boats. Also catamaran in included in the all-inclusive stay, just ask one of the lifeguards and they'll take you on a short trip.
You could basically go walking either way from the hotel, it's really secluded, there's nothing surrounding it, just one road that runs parallel to the beach, and you could just walk on the white sandy beaches that get rocky in times, for however long you like.
Activities at the hotel included stretching at the beach, bingo at around 3PM, archery (which was really fun!), dance lessons, "silly" games, Spanish lessons, and activities for kids. There weren't many participants for most activities, so that made them a bit less exciting. The entertainment team is pretty small, and not exceptional (compared to an entertainment team like the one in Brisas Santa Lucia which is just fabulous!). But they do their job!
You can get a beach towel for free (and replace it whenever you like) from a designated spot, which also provides chess, dominoes, tennis rackets (pretty bad condition), ping pong rackets, and a basketball. There are very outdated basketball and tennis courts, but they do their job.
There's also a disco with drinks included, located right by the mangroves, which opens at 10PM every night. Not many people went there during our stay.
This is a great hotel if you're looking for relaxation. There isn't much going on, but you will definitely enjoy your time there if you know what to expect. Also the service is anywhere close to 5* or even a 4* but if that's not the most important aspect for you then you will just ignore the service and focus on better things that this hotel has to offer!
Please ask if you have any questions or if you'd just like to hear more about anything about the hotel!

THE "pledge" of the No Advertising Please campaign to refuse to see pharmaceutical company representatives is an emotive approach that, because of politically correct connotations, has captured the media's attention.
The unstated implication is that the GP is unable to critically examine what's presented by the rep or that drug reps are the GP's sole source of information or education relating to pharmaceuticals.
Let me state upfront the AMA's view:
- It is open to any doctor to decline visits from pharmaceutical company sales representatives
- Some doctors see these visits as sales pitches while others use them as opportunities to increase their knowledge on certain medicines
- Some patients receive benefits from free access to pharmaceutical sample packs that the representatives sometimes leave with doctors
- The education events that pharmaceutical companies host are one, but not the only, source by which doctors learn about new medicines and improvements to existing medicines
The AMA has a position statement on the medical profession's relationship with the pharmaceutical industry.
The pledge is unnecessary and demeaning given the World Medical Association Declaration of Geneva, which says, in part: "I will practise my profession with conscience and dignity; the health of my patient will be my first consideration; … I will maintain by all the means in my power, the honour and the noble traditions of the medical profession".
New graduates affirm this oath (or similar), so at what point do they lose their intellect and therefore need to make such a banal pledge?
My contention is that GPs must use their skills and training to inform and educate themselves for the benefit of their patients using all the resources of information available — whether written or verbal, from a pharmaceutical company, a learned college, a clinical guideline, a research paper or clinical trial reports.
Are doctors influenced by the pharma rep visits? Well yes, simple logic attests to that and there is evidence supporting changes in doctors' behaviour.
So let's look at the evidence, rather than accepting it without scrutiny, to see what it is actually saying? Do the conclusions reached and publicised on the No Advertising Please (NAP) website have the rigour expected given their stance?
The evidence section of the website mixes personal observations with quotations and citations from the literature that are not always interpreted appropriately.
The prime study quoted is a systematic review of mainly observational studies, which would be placed at a Level lll or more likely Level lV in levels of evidence hierarchy. An editor's summary published with the review in PLOS Medicine acknowledges that the observed effects do not allow a causal interpretation and it doesn't assure that the time-direction of the association is clear.
"Because most of the studies included in the review were observational studies — the physicians in the studies were not randomly selected to receive or not receive drug company information — it is not possible to conclude that exposure to information actually causes any changes in physician behavior", the editor's summary says.
Other studies quoted on the website, which are used to extrapolate US market behaviour to the Australian health system, are inappropriate as the regulatory environment here is different. Most of the data are also more than 10 years old so don't take account of recent regulatory changes.
It is disingenuous to suggest that all pharmaceutical materials are of dubious quality and contain misleading information. Do we not believe the product information?
Blaming pharma reps for overdiagnosis and overtreatment is simplistic as these are multifactorial problems that often relate to other issues such as inappropriate extrapolation of guidelines.
I don't doubt that pharmaceutical marketing influences clinician behaviour but I challenge the assertion that it is a uniformly negative influence — the current evidence does not support this.
Censorship or prohibitions are not acceptable as methods for professional behavioural change, which is effectively the purpose of the NAP pledge. It is naive to suggest that doctors who sign the pledge will as a consequence "source best independent evidence".
There are multiple systemic issues that need to be addressed to change GP prescribing behaviour, and limiting it to a pledge that blames one sector of the health care industry distracts from and avoids examination of the real-world causes of poor prescribing.
Dr Brian Morton AM is a GP practising in Sydney and chair of the AMA Council of General Practice.

Air China and Xiamen Air have raised fuel surcharges this week according to SCMP. I expect that the other airlines will match the surcharges so they are the same across the board.
Fuel surcharges will be raised from 50 yuan to 70 yuan for flights shorter than 800 km, and 100 yuan to 130 yuan for those greater than 800 km.
On a percentage term I think the increases are significant, but I think these are minimal in absolute terms and really won't affect bookings or your pocketbook. (If 30 yuan does affect your pocketbook, you might want to take the train, lol.)
As a side note, Cathay Pacific also raised their fuel surcharge this month.

I bought a journal to give this bullet journal thing a lash. I is not enjoying it. My journal is not pretty but ... it is useful insofar as I now have a record of the things I forgot to do and a way of tracking my headaches. So far it would appear that all headaches have been brought on by stress. I know this because I had my first headache in ages yesterday, exactly three days after the sister and kids arrived home, to my home, to stay for three weeks. However, I also had a very fast, very strong gin.
I'll tell you more about that another time, the sister visit that is, the gin? Nothing to say other than it was needed and I was in bed by 8pm on a Sunday night.
So the journal thing doesn't appear to be for me but it has made me realise I miss this page. Not sure why I haven't written anything in so long. May have something to do with the fact that we have been so under pressure with Himself not working and lack of funds to do fun stuff that I had no fun stuff to do and tell you about.
Here's to that all changing. As, fanfare now .... HIMSELF GOT A JOB AND STARTED TODAY!!!!! Isn't that fucking brilliant??? Yup, after eight (you read that correctly) years and two degrees Himself is back in the land where he belongs. I can't tell you where he works 'cos there is a secrecy form signed. Not by me mind, but by him and he may not be impressed with me blabbing on the tinternet. He has told everyone that he is going to be a something something Officer! An officer I tell you! But not a police officer and he definitely doesn't have a gun. Grunkle Bill is convinced he will have a gun.
So, in the hope of fun money finally being back in our lives I am going to attempt to resurrect this poor thing and give Gertrude a laugh every now and then.
Also, for the first time in years I am fully responsible for getting everyone to and from school, getting them fed, keeping the house looking as if it's loved and walking the dog. Oh, and working myself. Yup, no one to turn to at 1.45pm and say, 'cos I'm up to my ears in icing or it's raining, '.. so, er, you're getting the kids then, yeah?'
Nope, it's all up to me. If I can do it for the next three weeks when we have guests (are family guests or just a nuisance?)I shall be the mutts nuts by the time his training is finished (9 weeks in total) and the shift work starts. Shift work means I have to cook a Sunday dinner, meh, and stand at a football sideline every second Sunday. Double Meh. Apart from meaning that the buck really does stop with me now I am very much looking forward to this new phase. Kind've. No I am. I am. I think.
p.s. I am so stressed by having very small people in the house I took the dogs for their walk at 8.40 this morning. We were back in and showered by 10.10pm. I have done my full 10K steps and both dogs are still asleep. It's 4.30!!

In the 5 years I've had a checking account with Provident Bank, I have to say the experience was pretty okay. Customer service was always helpful, polite & accomodating in addressing errors (even my OWN...). Fees are realy no worse than other banks I was with but at least the level of calm & professionalism of individual tellers & phone reps is so refreshing that I regret moving out of their service range. They've closed several branches in the Orange county region, which is a bit of an inconvenience, but we might be able to blame the economy for a lot of that. Nonetheless, a pretty painless relationship when compared to BNY, Welles Fargone & BoA...
The worst customer service I have ever experienced. Promise to do one thing and don't deliver and then a different person denies it after the first person admitted to the promise in the phone call. Have been with the bank over 20 years and will be leaving them today.
This has turned out to be the worst bank.
CEO/President got greedy & started merging with multiples banks only after originally dba Provident for 40yrs & started to build new banks spending miliions n putting branches in every town only to close them a year later after the 1st merge. Personally after being a customer for 35 yrs I didn't see where it was a positive move so it must only be to his financial advantage.
Their computer program is horrific which extends down to us the client making internet n mobile banking extremely difficult virtually impossible
The platform people LIE & don't tell the truth in opening accounts so be very cautious !!!
Then branch management doesn't want to correct things as it might over exert themselves
Leaving this bank after joining them in 1980 in their 2nd branch ever in new city next to the rag shop .... BYE Provident now dba Sterling National Bank
thnx for putting yourself before us !!!!
"Sterling is giving back to the Hudson Valley" Oh boy… what a joke!
After reading the Soprano's National Bank article, They ruined that small business owner in that article.
I'm going to do business with Hudson Valley Federal Credit Union.
Beware Provident Bank of Montebello NY and their Trans Fiirst credit card processor. Being a loyal customer of Provident Bank for 25 years, I made the mistake of trusting Providents agent to get the best deal possible on my credit card processing, only to find out that I unknowingly signed up my business and personally for a 48 month terminal lease ,thats noncancellable , after she assured me it was only for 12 months. Surprisingly Provident Bank has not returned any phone calls or e-mails OF FRAUD COMPLAINTS. If you signed up with this deal in the Rockalnd County NY area, please check your paper work and lets talk.
I called customer service and went in to my local branch to try to get an understanding as to why over $100 had been taken out of my account and the response was absurd! No one was trying to help nor understand; after several attempts I just closed my account and will continue to spread the word for other NOT to bank with this inconsiderate group of people.

Stratus re-enters telco biz
Lucent lifts server sales ban
Stratus, the fault tolerant server company, has reached an agreement with beleaguered networking giant Lucent to lift contractual restrictions which prevented it selling its full range of servers to service providers.
Because of this, Stratus Technologies may now directly sell its Continuum 600 and 1200 Series servers, XA/R legacy systems, system upgrades for VOS and FTX-supported applications, and service for these systems to telecommunications customers. These systems are used for operational support systems such as billing data collection.
Restrictions on selling this kit, which arise from a complicated string of business deals, were due to last until the end of February next year.
In 1998 Ascend Communications acquired Stratus Computer expressly for its telecom technology. The enterprise computing business of Stratus was taken private in a management buyout a year later and conditions on its ability to sell into the telco space were imposed at this time. These conditions were subsequently policed by Lucent when it acquired Ascend in 1999.
David Chalmers, technology director EMEA for Stratus Technologies, said that Lucent has decided to move out of the market for telco-orientated servers, as part of a plan to focus its business and stem losses and is no longer seeking to limit Stratus Technologies' business in this area.
A block on Stratus Technologies' ability to sell its family of fault-tolerant Windows 2000 servers, called ftServer, to the telecommunications marketplace were lifted in February this year according to the original timetable set at the time of the management buy-out. ®

HTC HD7 Windows Phone 7: Hands On
T-Mobile's first Windows Phone 7 device, the HTC HD7, looks like a great platform from which to launch a new OS. The HD7 has a big screen, a kickstand, and a solid camera, and doesn't try to get in the way of Windows Phone 7's strengths.
The HD7 is a big phone, just like HTC's old HD2 or the current Motorola Droid X. It has to be big to fit that 4.3-inch, 800-by-480 screen. Other specs are pretty typical: 16GB of on-board memory, a Qualcomm QSD8250 processor, and a 5-megapixel camera with high-def video recording. The HD7 doesn't work with T-Mobile's new HSPA+ network, as all Windows Phone 7 devices max out at HSPA 7.2.
Like AT&T's Samsung Focus, this is a simple, slab-style phone without a lot of bells and whistles. The kickstand is useful, though; it pops out from around the camera housing and lets the phone sit on a table when it's playing a video.
T-Mobile will sell the HD7 with Netflix and Slacker on board, as well as the carrier's own MobiTV-powered T-Mobile TV. Netflix looked great. T-Mobile TV, on the other hand, looked really pixelated in a demo. The full version wasn't available when I was trying it.
T-Mobile's other contribution to Windows Phone 7 is Family Room, a new app that lets phone owners form ad-hoc family groups to run a shared calendar, write on a virtual group chalkboard, or send out group messages. That app also didn't work on the demo phones.
Otherwise, it's Windows Phone 7 here in full effect. That means clear Web pages with smooth pinch-to-zoom, a full copy of Microsoft Office, Zune, Xbox, and all the other Microsoft experiences.
The HD7's LCD screen is a bit duller than the Super AMOLED on the Samsung Focus, but both phones have the right idea for now. Windows Phone 7 is full of new experiences, and both phones are letting those experiences shine through rather than adding too many gimmicks.
The HTC HD7 will be available mid-November; T-Mobile hasn't announced a price, but everyone assumes it will be $199.99 with contract.

Situated within an imposing Victorian building located on the corner of Northumberland Avenue and Whitehall Place, the Corinthia Hotel has emerged as a world class, five star hotel. From the outset the aim was to provide a luxurious hotel in the style of a grand English home with contemporary amenities and state of the art facilities to attract the most discerning of client. Every room is notably spacious and all feature the finest materials and considered touches throughout.
This approach was continued to all interior elements and ironmongery was no different. Working with the interior designer GA Design International, consultations revolved around which material to use to reflect the aspirations of the hotel. It was decided that bespoke furniture would be designed for the guestrooms, creating a leather theme with a bronze metallic finish.
The creation of a wide new range of items brought its challenges. Items were created from finished satin stainless steel material, then applied with a PVD bronze finish and finally a leather grip was attached.
Different parts of the hotel required their own unique aesthetic. To achieve this, Allgood had to provide a consistent hardware offering with mixed finishes. In addition, 294 hotel rooms required access control. Allgood provided bronze FSB 41020 lever handle attached to matching on-door access control escutcheons.

How To Repair Nintendo Wii
How To Repair Wii Guide
Your Nintendo Wii not working? Getting error messages? Troubleshoot your Wii consoles fast! Learn how to repair it today!
Wii Console Freezes
If you're an avid gamer, like I am, you certainly hope every year to get a video game on New Year. You may know that your relatives aren't as immersed in the videogame hobby as you do, so you know it's more a happy thought than a reality. You may even get one of two video games, along with the socks and the sweater that your aunts and uncles gave you.
However, getting a video game console is something that normally goes beyond your wildest expectations. Unfortunately for me, that's more the case of children. I had to buy my Wii console. My wife got me the Dinasty Warriors game for my Xbox 360 console, so it was still a video game New Year.
Regardless how you got your Wii console, you almost certainly want to spend at least part of you New Year enjoying your new games (either the ones that you got or the ones that you bought for yourself).
When your favorite video game console breaks down, it can be frustrating, but when you get a freezing Wii console on Christmas, it can be almost mortifying.
The worst part of getting a freezing Wii console on a major holiday is that repair shops will be closed, so you'll have a bunch of new games that you can't play. Telephone service from Nintendo might not be available in your area either.
But don't worry; now you can fix your freezing Wii console yourself. It's not really that complicated. In fact, it's really simple.
The process is a bit different depending on the nature of the freezing Wii problem. It basically breaks into whether it freezes during game or during some part of the menu screen, which very frequently is the language selection screen.
If the Wii console freezes during gameplay, then try loading a different game. If it loads and plays ok, then the problem is with the game and you just need to change it for a new one. If it doesn't, it's the Wii console that has the problem.
Wii Disc Read Error
The craze of gaming is increasing all over the world. Every year the number of users are growing all over the world. Users have experienced some of the problems during gaming. This is not an unexpected situation because no system is completely error free. Nintendo wii have created a good image among the users in the past few years. But you might face some problem from them also. These problems can be solved easily with the help of the experts. So you just need to identify the problem properly.
If you are a regular gamer you definitely familiar with the Wii disc read error. Many times you insert a disc and get the message "there is no disc" or "please insert the game disc". These massages create dissatisfaction among the users and disturb their enjoyment flow. But these are not very complex problem. If you are an expert user you can solve this problem by yourself.
There are some common reasons why we see Wii disc read error. Most common causes are overheating. It causes some of the connectors get burnt and therefore for proper functioning of the console. It's a good idea to replace the disk when you experience Wii disc read error. If you try to repair it have the same problem in the near future. Many people still prefers to repair it from the authorized agent. But most of the time it's time consuming and expensive. Like other wii errors (which can be solved easily by the user itself), Wii disc read error is little bit more complex.
The final option for the user is to do it by you. Don't think you can not perform it by yourself. With the proper help from the service providers you can solve the Wii disc read error.

The nation's leading general aviation associations registered joint opposition to job-killing aviation user fees—and a potential new tax-collection bureaucracy—in President Barack Obama's plan for stemming the twin crises of the federal deficit and stubborn unemployment.
AOPA, the Aircraft Electronics Association, Experimental Aircraft Association, General Aviation Manufacturers Association, Helicopter Association International, International Council of Air Shows, National Association of State Aviation Officials, National Air Transportation Association, and the National Business Aviation Association issued a joint statement warning of "devastating" consequences for aviation-industry jobs from a proposed $100 fee for users of air traffic services.
"We believe this per-flight tax not only imposes a significant new administrative burden on general aviation operators who currently pay through an efficient per-gallon fuel charge at the pump, but it will also necessitate the creation of a costly new federal collection bureaucracy," the associations said.
"As you know, the issue of how general aviation can best contribute revenue to the federal government has been the subject of significant study and debate as part of the FAA reauthorization process. After careful consideration, both chambers of Congress have passed bills that endorse the per-gallon fuel charges rather than adopt a per-flight tax similar to the one you propose. In fact, Democrats and Republicans in the House of Representatives felt so strongly about this issue that 116 members of that body sent you a letter earlier this year saying new aviation charges like the one you are now proposing would be 'dead on arrival.'"
According to draft wording of the user fee plan, the Obama administration "proposes to establish a new mandatory surcharge for air traffic services. This proposal would create a $100 per flight fee, payable to the FAA, by aviation operators who fly in controlled airspace. Military aircraft, public aircraft, recreational piston aircraft, air ambulances, aircraft operating outside of controlled airspace, and Canada-to-Canada flights would be exempted. The revenues generated by the surcharge would be deposited into the Airport and Airway Trust Fund. This fee would generate an estimated $11 billion over 10 years. Assuming the enactment of the fee, total charges collected from aviation users would finance roughly three fourths of airport investments and air traffic control system costs."
As the debt crisis and unemployment have worsened, aviation groups have been watchful for signs of a bid to impose new taxes on aviation. On July 21, AOPA President Craig Fuller alerted members in this AOPA Live video that user fees, which had failed to be included in the recent budget proposals in the face of strong opposition in Congress, showed signs of resurfacing despite the efficient workings of the aviation fuel tax as a source of FAA funding.
User fees are back on the table. Help AOPA defend general aviation by supporting the AOPA Political Action Committee today: Go online to contribute.
AOPA and 26 other organizations representing virtually the entire aviation community urged House and Senate leaders to resist any taxes—including those "disguised as user fees"—in the Obama administration's plan to reduce the deficit and stimulate employment. Policymakers should value aviation as a potential engine for economic growth, and not single out the sector as a "national piggybank," they said.
New fees or taxes would stifle the aviation sector's contributions to the economy and undermine an "already fragile" economic recovery, the aviation groups wrote in letters sent to House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Senate Majority leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.).
AOPA reported Sept. 19 that the administration has proposed a $100 fee for most flights in controlled airspace as part of its proposal to reduce the deficit. That proposal would not only raise costs for the aviation sector, but would mark a departure from the time-tested method of funding the FAA through a tax on aviation fuel.
"Our policymakers should be focused on increasing U.S. international competitiveness rather than viewing the industry as a national piggybank," said the Sept. 21 letters to the House and Senate leaders.

A House in California (Macintosh)

DescriptionA House in California is a short, surreal adventure game with a strong emphasis on the narrative. It starts with a boy who lives in a house and cannot get to sleep. He complains about the dark, the lack of noise, ... and for each of these he is comforted by a different family member, each with its own story about the house, in a separate chapter.
The game is almost entirely monochromatic with straightforward graphics. Players need to solve puzzles by clicking on any of the available verbs at the bottom of the screen and using them on objects in the environment. Instead of the conventional "pick up" or "examine", it has verbs such as "remember", "sing", "befriend", or "cook". The words are different in each chapter and new ones are sometimes adding after completing a part of the game. The puzzles are largely an incentive to keep the narrative moving and to contemplate the events.

DevelopmentThe development was funded through a Kickstarter project. With 77 backers, Elliott raised $1,130, much more than the $600 goal. Everyone who pledged $15 or more received the Limited Edition (40 copies) and people who pledged $45 or more received the Deluxe Edition (10 copies).
Game referencesDifferent older games are referenced during gameplay. One of them is Rocky's Boots. The player has to "play" the game to find out more about a kicking machine, which was a part of the original game. In the same room with the Apple II, there is a painting depicting a scene from the game The Manhole. When it examined, the character mentions Rand Miller and Robyn Miller as well as their later title Myst.
InspirationThe author cites Mystery House as an important inspiration for the game. The four characters are based on relatives of the author (two grandmothers and two great-grandmothers).
