What would you do for money? Would you travel to a foreign country thousands of miles away from home? Would you risk your life? "Dodger's Lot" tells the tale of Jack Dawkins, a 14-year old orphan willing to do whatever it takes to get his hands on some "shiners". This adventure book follows Jack, better known as the Artful Dodger, after the story of Oliver Twist.
Jack's story begins as Bill Sike's ends, supposedly. Sikes, Jack's friend in the "business" of stealing, fakes his death as the entire town of Borough,London watches. When Jack meets up with Sikes, the pair stays at a suspicious boater's house for the night. Their suspicions are confirmed when the boater sells Jack and Sikes to the captain of the Opium Clipper.
Upon the Clipper, Jack learns to be at ease with the seafaring life, thanks to his new friend, Aaron. He also meets Jeremy Fynne, an aristocratic businessman, whose refined ways persuade Jack to work with him. Mr. Fynne promises Jack more money than he can imagine if he plays a small part in stealing opium sold by a merchant in India.
Turns out, the plan is a little more complicated than Mr. Fynne let on. However, Jack sticks to his goal and motto, "in for a penny."
I enjoyed the time period and setting that this book took me to. The author's descriptive words and old-fashioned writing style made me feel as if I were right alongside Jack in the poor streets of London, the rough decks of the Clipper, and the exotic town of Calcutta.
The mood was constantly suspenseful and mysterious, which kept me turning the book's pages. The plot contained tons of twists and turns, so I was never bored. However, the ending left me wanting to know more. Luckily, the last page of the book advertises the sequel to this story.
After reading this story, I learned much of the olden day British lingo. At times, Jack's crude grammar was hard to follow, but made the story feel more "real". I also found quite a few of typos and misspellings.
I would recommend this book to adventure and suspense lovers. If you liked the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean", this book is for you.
This book contains lots of violence and murder. Some of the language is also crude.

"That's Life, Samara Brooks" by Daniel Ehrenhaft is
something else. The book starts off with Samara getting
in trouble for starting a gambling ring at school. Then,
she proposes an idea to her principal--she will use an
electron microscope to test her DNA against Lily's (school
president and friend that bet on blackjack and lost); if
the structure is the same, Samara should not be punished
more for being "bad" because she is innately no different
from Lily. Nathan--a geeky boy obsessed with alien / code
theory--joins in the experiment, too. Mystery heats up as
Nathan points out a mysterious "eye" in the photos of
Samara's DNA that hint at extraterrestrial origins. The
story gets even more intense when the photos are stolen
and detectives are hot on the trail of the children.
This book is written from the perspectives of Samara,
Lily, and Nathan in chunks. The topic of God comes up a
lot--particularly because the donor of the electron
microscope to the school was a scientific rival to a
creationist. Certain characters believe in God as a
gambler but think it's okay if others don't believe in him
(Samara), certain believe in Jesus (Lily), and certain
claim not to believe in God but simultaneously think he is
an alien (Nathan). Unfortunately, at times, the
creationist is seen as stupid and an ill-representation of
the church. This book is a great mystery and quick to
read, but the religious views are somewhat reflective of
the perhaps confused nature of the author's own views. If
anything, this book will be good for young Christian
readers to test their faith and see how they react to what
these characters say, which would be excellent for group

This book is a great read for an interested
actor. I enjoyed the relations you get to the characters.
I feel like I know the people in the stories. As, great as
the plays were, the book had one fault....The language.
Due to the vulgar words, I would only recommend this book
to people over 13. Other than that, this book was great! I
laughed, I cried, I felt like I was literally in the
audience at a Broadway play. The book was
enchanting...Four stars!
The language is vulgar.

Kris Longknife Undaunted is a sci-fi novel with military undertones. It opens with Kris captaining the scout vessel the "Wasp" in semi-neutral space. Kris has to turn her trigger-happy computer off to stop it from shooting up other ships, shortly afterward, she takes an Iteeche Imperial messenger on board the Wasp where she is promtly told her great-grandfather is needed and Kris will "take him to her leader", after which she takes off to settle some other dispute while her great grandpa takes care of the Iteeche problem.
It seemed a little forced, and not very smooth-flowing. Content-wise it was very well put together, but I thought the writing style left a little to be desired. The plot jerks the reader around a bit, and left me slightly confused as to the characters' place and rank and whatnot. Nicely done action-wise, I liked the military throwbacks and the few battles were well written. Overall, I thought it was a decent sci-fi novel for anyone with some spare time.
Patriot's Reward is the story of an African man captured by slave traders in 1755 when he was sixteen and brought from what is now Senegal, Africa to America to be sold off as a slave. At the beginning of the novel main character Will Clarkson, having adopted the surname of his owners, undergoes many emotional, physical and circumstantial changes, thus allowing him to develop into an interesting and appealing character central to the plot. Will develops a yearning to learn the English language, like the white men he is surrounded by. With this skill Will gains an air of confidence, a newfound skill as a leader in social situations and is able to establish himself as an admired member of both the black and white community. When Will hears word that all slaves signing up for war would have assured freedom upon return, he is eager to claim this reward. Therefore Will is sent first to fight in the Civil War in southern colonial areas, subsequently he is involved in the Revolutionary War in which he must overcome the racism throughout the army to fight side by side with the whites. Will is acknowledged in many of these battles for his heroism and acts of strength during conflict. When Will finally returns from the Wars, he is haunted and shattered by his experiences. Though, not free as promised, he continues to petition for his liberation.
I liked the idea of this book. I was interested to learn about the slave history of America and captivated by the first hundred or so pages. But after this point, the appeal faded as the war scenes lengthened. The way Patriots Reward was written in third person made it easy to follow and I liked the eloquence of language used, fitting to the era. The author depicted well the personal side of the story, in which we see Will care for his family and his struggle for acceptance and freedom, whereas the description of conditions and events during the Wars became tedious. My impressions and thoughts after reading this book were varied with a slight disappointment at the ending to amazement at the strength of spirit of one African man. The preface and comments included in this book made the characters and situations more real to me due to the direct ancestry between the author and Wills owner, James Clarkson. I would recommend this novel, Patriot's Reward to mature reading history enthusiasts who will be able to understand the powerful and articulate language as well as appreciate the scenes of war.
This book is about a boy named Jamil Jamil, who is in a bad
situation and looking for outside help. His mother is into
drugs, and jumping from nasty boyfriend to nasty boyfriend.
The latest one beats Jamil often. Even school isn't safe
anymore; the principal has it out for him. The only place
were he is comfortable is at his grandmother's house. She's
also the only one who knows his secret. He can communicate
with animals! One day while doing his homework, Jamil gets
a message from Bette the elephant saying that there have
been bad people at the zoo plotting to blow up the city.
But what could Jamil do? He's just a kid. Can he save the
city or will he be blown up with it?
I think that this book is interesting. I think it would
have been better if it started in medias res. Instead, it
is sort of slow starting. I like the fact that he can't
actually 'speak' to animals. It's more like the animals and
Jamil just know what the other is saying. There are too
many books where animals talk. I also like the parts where
the author explains why the terrorists are terrorists. It
is a helpful insight, that helps the story I think. All in
all, though it is a good book that I recommend to anyone
who likes slow intros.
I give this book a 2 because it's about terrorism and
has references to drugs and not exactly a book for fifth

This book is AMAZING! Kristin Harmel has done an excellent job telling Lacey's story just enough to make me want to turn the page to find out more. This story would appeal to anyone. It has all the components to a great story: Tradegy, family and romance. I finished this book in one sitting and by the end of the book I had cried numerous times. Amazing story and excellent writing. Brava Kristin Harmel!

The Hollow is the debut novel for young author, Jessica Verday that follows a blooming girl, Abbey on her journey to solve her best friend's disappearance at the bridge near Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. Abbey refuses to believe her friend, Kristen is dead, but has trouble convincing herself and others of Kristen's motive for vanishing. At Kristen's funeral, she meets a mysterious young boy, Caspian, who always seems to appear at the most opportune of moments. As Abbey tries to solve the mystery she begins to unveil secrets that make her question everything she ever thought she knew about her friend and the boy she's fallen in love with.
Overall, I thought this was a good first attempt by Verday. I could tell just in the first chapter by the way her sentences were structured and the number of cliches used, that she is a new writer. The plot was weak, but could have been made stronger with more focus on the main storyline. The characters were well crafted, although Abbey had her whiny moments which made it hard to relate to her at times. The chemistry between Abbey and Caspian was nice and I really enjoyed the paranormal element brought to the table.

Despite the title, Mazzy's life is not fine. Though she continually repeats that that everything is fine to her father, her neighbors and even herself, she's suffering. Mazzy's mother is severely depressed and her father has abandoned his family for his career. She looks to her caring neighbors and painting for some kind of solace. As readers turn the pages, they will discover what tore the family apart and learn how it can be put back together.
This book was very sad. Mazzy is only eleven or twelve years old and has to care for her mother, who can barely get out of bed. Somehow, she is strong enough to pull through, which is nice to see in such a young protagonist. However, even with a great main character, the book seemed poorly written, without much of a plot; it jumped around between topics, making the story a little choppy. It's a short book, but don't mistake the length for a light-hearted story; it's anything but.
An inspirational collection of essays from leaders, artists, authors and even comic book writers who recall their favorite children's book and the impact it had on their lives. This book can be read by people of all ages and each essay is accompanied by illustrations and an exerpt from the selected books.
This book is sweet, comforting, inspiring and even unexpected. Usually books full of essays are boring and after a few pages are put down and never touched again. However this collection of essays is unique and honestly, although this is a slang word, very cool. I couldn't put it down. When I read it it gave me a warm fuzzy feeling in the pit of my stomach and put a sweet smile on my face. It is also a must read if you are looking for wholesome children's novels that teach a life lessons for your daughter or son.
Chloe's boyfriend, the talented chef Josh, just left her and moved to Hawaii. But she has been dealing fine by overindulging her 3-month old godson and eating lots of ice cream. To pay off her credit card bills Chloe looks for a job, and finds the perfect one, a Cookbook Writer's Assistant. She gets to eat great food and gets paid to do it, what could be better! Not to mention, her new boss Kyle is attractive too. But things quickly turn bad when Josh's good friend dies in a suspicious fire.
Chloe is a quirky and lovable character, even though she spends just a bit too much time pining for her ex, she is real. The accompanying characters also add flavor. The constant theme of food in this book made my mouth water and including the recipes in the back was a great addition to the story. But the plot was almost nonexistent. The fire occurred a few chapters in but the idea of murder didn't come up until the second half. Then, nothing was really done about it. For the first ninety percent of the book very little happened, then in the last few chapters everything was revealed and resolved and boom we're done. There was no mystery, there was a crime and then later the crime was solved. That's it. In the end, the delicious food and lovable characters barely held the book up through the plot.
When Will steals his father's motorcycle and runs away from the campsite where they are staying, his plan is for revenge not to crash and end up in another land. He wants revenge on his father for taking him and his sister, Jess, away from the house they lived in before his mother died. His destination on the motorcycle is the Perilous Realm, what he thinks is an amusement park a few miles down the road from their campsite. Will does end up in Perilous Realm; too bad it is not an amusement park, but an entirely different world. An evil sorcerer brings him there and wants to capture Will to use him for his own nefarious reasons. The Perilous Realm is a world of stories where everyone and everything has their own and are all part of the weaving, the largest story of all. The Angel and his master want to create the end of all the stories; they want to control all of them for themselves. Will sets off on his journey accompanied by a young girl with extraordinary powers, her storytelling grandfather, a talking wolf, and a knight-in-training. Along the way, they pick up a man who is of the storyfolk and has a dark past as well a raven companion. Will and his friends set off on a journey to nowhere, to find the gateless gate in order to get Will back home to Elsewhere, avoiding the Angel and his minions the whole way.
Wharton does an extraordinary job of weaving the tales of many people together in order to create Will's story. His characters are vibrant and come to life. One cannot allow Will to stay in the Perilous Realm and it keeps a reader going until the very end. The book is action-packed and good for anyone who loves fantasy books. Delve into the Perilous Realms, read a story of stories and travel with Will across an unknown land as he endeavors to get back home.
Scars by Cheryl Rainfield is a book full of many unexpected
twists and turns, a very suspenseful novel. Kendra has lived
he life in fear. She was sexually abused as a child by
someone she can't even remember, and she has kept this a
secret for many years. She has this terrible sense that the
same man who abused her is now following her, haunting her,
and making her afraid. So much is wrong in her life, this
man following her, her mother being so protective, and
looking down on Kendra because she is gay. So she cuts,
because it seems to be the only relief from her life. But
what happens when the truth starts to come out?
Rainfield takes a head on charge at many sensitive subjects: teenage
homosexuality, sexual abuse, cutting. She has written a book
you don't want to put down (and I don't think I did), but at
the same time you are so horrified that you want to throw it
against the wall, feeling so much for this girl, Kendra, and
the pain she must feel. Yes, it is an amazing story, but at
the same time there are so many blanks, which can be good in
a thriller, but in this book there are just a few too many
blanks. You are left with unanswered questions at the end.
And while I loved the story, I think it ended to soon, there
was more I wanted to know. I would recommend this book to
those who go through things like this, for those who need an
alternative world, like this book creates, and for those
looking for just a good, 'can't put it down' read.
This book has a lot of very sensitive subjects, involving
sexuality, abuse, and inflicting pain on oneself, it is
somewhat graphic, and is for readers who can handle such

In the Magical world of Deverry, war has broken out. The humans and their allies, the elves, are realizing that the fate of the Northlands is in their hands. The evil army of the Horsekin continue to try to convert the denizens of Deverry with any means possible, even deadly force. In order to stop the powerful Horsekin army, the magic of the elven Wise Ones, such as Dallandra and Valandario, and the help of the dragons, Arzoash and Rori,can possible defeat the crusaiding army. But at what cost? Will Rori, a man in a dragon's body, ever be freed? The Silver Mage by Katharine Kerr, is the exciting ending to the entire Deverry saga, which fans of the series will enjoy immensely.
The Silver Mage, by Katharine Kerr and her world of Deverry is a wonderful fantasy, but hard to follow. In the Silver Mage, you are immediately thrust into the middle of a war and you hardly get to realize who is the main character. There is many character names and view points that are thrown at you that can get confusing at times. I wouldn't suggest this book as a way to start reading the Deverry saga. It is also hard to visualize the layout of the story (previous books in this saga probably describe Deverry more indepth than The Silver Mage does). Although, when Kerr writes about the way that Dweomer (magic) is used, she creates a wonderful painting in words. The way she describes magic makes it seem real to the reader. With an overall view of the Silver Mage, it was well written and a good conclusion to the Deverry saga. It left no loose ends and ended happily. A very good book overall. One more thing, there are no chapters in The Silver Mage, only parts and symbols that start the beginning of a different section. Very confusing at times but it was a decient way of breaking up the information.

Charlie was young when Sean moved in. Sean has been there almost as long as she can remember. Everything was going right; her mother was going to have a baby, Sean had moved in, and it seemed as if they were headed toward marriage. But then everything went south.
Her mother had a miscarriage, pushed Sean away, and seemed to be suffering from depression. Charlie thinks that Mum is making a terrible mistake, and doesn't know what her mother is going to do.
Mum's solution - move to Flightsend. Of course, Charlie thinks that this is the worst thing ever. But through the course of this novel, Charlie grows up and shows maturity beyond her years. But will her mother?
I felt that this book was very well written. The plot didn't drag, the characters were fun and easy to relate to, and the writing style was good. The book is in first person; from Charlie's point of view. This alone makes it interesting, to see it from the kid's point of view. I loved how reality hit hard for both her and her mother and seeing their ways of dealing with things. Also, I enjoyed how she and her mother lost, then found, a connection with each other. Lastly, I think that it was interesting so see Charlie's way of dealing with her mother's "depression".
I would most definitely recommend this to other readers my age, for it shows the true hardships of growing up.
This book deals with some more mature themes, dealing with pregnancy and relationships. Some children might need some guidance with these themes.
Taoshira,or Tashi to her friends, was commonly known as the Fourth Crown Princess of the Blue Crescent Islands. Soon, however, she must marry Prince Ramil of Gerfal, and she doesn't want to leave her friends and family. She's not too keen on marrying a stranger, either. Upon arriving at Prince Ramil's palace, she finds he's every bit as rude as she imagined. Then the two get kidnapped by the enemy, Fergox. They fight their way out of his prison after being humiliated and tortured, but due to unforseen problems, Tashi and Ramil are separated on their way home.
But will they ever reunite and defeat Fergox? Can they bring peace to their two different countries? And will they ever become friends?
I thought this book was well written. It gave me a clear picture of what was going on. Golding clearly describes just enough so that you don't get bored, but not too much so that you still need good insight. It wasn't very realistic though, and there was no modern technology, either. There's lots of action. Definitely a book for people who like suspense.
There was quite a bit of violence in this book. There was also a lot about different faiths and religion.
The Georges and the Jewels is set on a horse farm in California. Abby, a seventh-grader, lives on the farm with her parents, and misses her brother Danny, who left home to work for the local horse-shoer because he had a fight with his parents. Abby's parents' goal is to train and sell each horse within six months, so they try to stop Abby from becoming attached by naming all the geldings "George" and all the mares "Jewel." Abby does most of the work of caring for, riding, and training the horses. The author takes more time describing the horses than the people. Each horse has a different way they like doing things; for example, Ornery George does not like being bossed around. Even though her father doesn't want Abby to get attached to the horses, she does, and makes nicknames for each horse. At school, Abby makes friends with a new girl, Stella. Stella, out of a jealousy over a boy, causes trouble for a popular group of girls, and Abby ends up taking the blame. Abby struggles to clear her name at school and keep up with things at the farm.
This book was a little slow at the beginning, but after I got through a couple of chapters, I could hardly stop reading it. I don't usually read horse stories, so I really liked the sections at the beginning of each chapter that showed different pieces of tack and equipment along with their names. They helped me understand the vocabulary in the book. Abby is a good character because she has a mind of her own and even when she is blamed for the troubles at school, she doesn't get upset. I liked the ending of the book because Abby's parents decide that she can name the horses. Her mother says, "maybe when we name them, we're really seeing something in them that will help us train them the best way we can." This book is really about learning to recognize who people (and horses) really are.

Minneapolis Unwired: Digital Inclusion Update | PF Hyper the Blog
I now have forty-five proposals to go through requesting far more than the $200,000 that’s available for grants. I think there will be some interesting projects coming along in the next year to help low income and marginalized folk in Minneapolis get to the Internet. Not much more I can say until an official announcement some time before the end of the year.
I can announce our members though. I was shy about that previously as there was no listing available on the web until recently. I planned to check with my colleagues about listing names here after reading Josh Breitbart’s post pointing out that we aren’t identified anywhere. That has changed and the official list of reps is up at the Digital Access site. (Thanks, Josh. I have a feeling your blog post helped in getting this information out there.)
Read Josh’s post. His ideas around horizontal collaboration vs. hub-and-spoke deserve serious discussion. He likes much of what he sees in Minneapolis compared to Philadelphia. But we are still in the development stage, now creating the reality of the shared vision. What is disheartening for me is the minuscule information about the Wi-Fi project itself and the walled/civic garden portals. (I am supposed to be on a committee that is planning the community portals and it hasn’t met in months.) The deployment is a month or more behind schedule and I doubt if the network will be completed before 2008. I think delays are to be expected in new ventures like this but US Internet Wireless (USIW) and the City of Minneapolis have not been forthcoming in updating residents as to status. There is a city-sponsored mailing list but little flows through it and there has never been any type of status report even when new neighborhoods are added to the Wi-Fi mix.

Alles Klar!: Assessments on Canvas
Assessments on Canvas
I've been enjoying a relaxed summer schedule to work on things for next year at a comfortable pace.
One of the things I'm working on is moving our assessments from paper to our learning management system, Canvas. I was hesitant to test on Canvas when we first started using it two years ago because it was all so new and there was so much for both me and the students to learn.
This past year we gave our semester exams on Canvas successfully, and I've been using it more for assignments as well, so I think I'm ready to put regular quizzes and tests on Canvas as well.
It takes some time to input the quizzes, but then the grading is quick and there's no paper to deal with. I only have German 1 and 2 next year, so it seems like a good time to switch those classes over.
Here's what a vocabulary quiz will look like:
Nouns have two boxes, one for the article and one for the noun, so that students can get partial credit if they miss the article. Verbs have just one box. These questions are graded automatically by the computer. Other questions are teacher graded:
I am requiring that students type ß and umlauts correctly. It's something that we practice in class, and I include the special characters in the instructions for students to copy and paste if they have difficulty with the character codes. On the first quiz of the year, students still receive full credit even without the umlaut but get a reminder that they need to use umlauts correctly on all future assessments.
All of the vocabulary questions are in question banks, so students' questions will not be in the same order as their neighbors, and it makes generating a parallel quiz for a retake a snap.

My husband, 14 year old boy and myself stayed at Marazul for 10 nights. It is on Westpunt far away from everything. We had a wonderful time and would love to go back. The location is perfect if you are a diver or snorkeler and if that is really all you want to do. If. you are looking for nightlife, shopping, restaurants, etc. Then this is not the place for you. The apartment we stayed at, E2, was perfect for the three of us. The complex has a pool, internet, a pool and access to the water by stairs by the cliff face. There is no sandy beach but there are many beautiful ones nearby. If you stay there you do need to rent a car. The main grocery store is in willemstadt, about 30 minutes away. No convenience stores within walking distance. Also, get Skype and use it as your phone, a lot cheaper than cells or global phones. The place is very peaceful, virtually empty during the week, lots of families during the weekend. As for the electric, it is prepaid, so you have a limited amount. If you are gone during the day or just leave the windows and sliding door you will probably be okay. Truth is we are kind of spoiled so we needed to get an extra 180 kWh. Tommy, the property keeper, is very nice and will take care of you. He does not have an office on site, but you can contact him through e-mail or by phone. If you need extra electricity, don't wait until you are running low since Tommy has to go to the town of Barber to buy electricity, call when you are down to 60 or 70 kWh. In the 1 bedroom apartments you are allowed 20kwh but we used about 30 per day, again that was us, others may find the 20kwh allowance more than enough. Make sure you buy paper towels, toilet paper, plastic trash bags, soap, laundry detergent (there is a washing machine on the premises, and a line for drying clothes) enough for you own use and some for the next guests. There is a mid week clean up for stays longer than a week, so make sure you hang up your towels after using, there is no daily maid service. There are not many restaurants around so we cooked most of our meals. The place is heaven for divers and snorkelers. We would definitely go back.

1 review 4 helpful votes “Great holiday at the best part of Curacao”
We just got back from a perfect holiday at Marazul Dive Resort, Westpunt, Curacao. We stayed in bungalow nr. 6 and it was just very, very nice.The weather was ofcourse excellent, the view was breathtaking and the house was spotless.Marazul is a small resort with mostly privately owned villas and apartments. Our villa was two bedroom, and could house 6. Upstairs is an enormous king size bed, adjoining a large bathroom. Downstairs a kitchen with livingroom, an bedroom and another bathroom.The villa had everything we wanted, a safe, a refrigerator, dishwasher, washingmachine (you definitely need that with two small children). All was provided for getting us started, the groceries were done as requested, the bins were clean, there was washingpowder, dishwashpowder, towels, beachtowels, all was there.Tommy (the resort manager) does his best to keep the resort up and running. But he has to do with the local poco poco style, so if the trash is not emptied, there is nothing you can do. You just have to wait until somebody decides that its time to pick up all the waiting trash outside at the road. Also the resort gets visited by the locals in the weekends, and they don't always keep to the resort rules. Also very poco poco, but it costs extra effort to clean up after a local party. Rules are not something that the local people tend to take very seriously. Not that they make a mess or something, but they don't take the poolbeds back after they put them on their own terrace. That kind of thing. It keeps Tommy busy!The people are generally very nice, but I think they don't like Dutch people (we are dutch) very much. Something out of history I think. We speak a couple of words Papiamento and thats considered very polite, but there is a category who is very tired, I think, of tourists. We met all kinds of people, frienldy, unfriendly, ignorant, interested, silent but mostly very emotional. Our children had fun with local children but there were also groups of children who just shouted and bullied at our kids. Pushed them in the water etc. Did not get the reason behind that. I had to step in a few times, telling them to stop, but I just got shouted at. I normally never get shouted at by a 5 year old, but now I did! Very strange. We did found out that those groups never got at the paid beaches and that they did not show up at the same beach every day. So we learned how to avoid them. It is a pity though.Westpunt is so nice. We stayed in Piscadera Baai in February, but the West side of the island is the most beautifull. I never want to get back to Jan Thiel. We looked at mostly all the beaches, Lagun, Cas Abou, Daaibooi, but our favorite was Grote Knip. Extremely crowded at Sunday, but the most you get from a Carribean beach with white sand and blue sea and (thank God) no pedicures, no massages, no white benches and no beer drinking students. Not so good for snorkeling as Lagun, but very nice for a family.To stay at Marazul means that you need to bring a lot with you, since there is not a store for a half hour drive! Bring all the essentials suchs as suncream, showersoap etc, because if you don't have it with you, you need to drive at least 35 minutes tot Tera Kora for the California Supermarket. If you are very smart, you pick up a lot of food and drink on your way from the airport to Marazul. We did not cook while we were there, so we ate out. Mostly at Ranchos e Sobrino - you can walk that (the kids loved it), we ate at Sol Food (which is only open at Friday, Saterday and Sunday). The food is nice, the view is nice. Jaanchies is fun, but we saw all the food we wanted after just two times. Mishe is an absolute favorite - not very childfoodfriendly, but the best food we had in two weeks. A little bit expensive, but very very good.We spend our days at the beach and at a local nice spot, such as Christoffelpark, Shete Boca, took a snorkeling course at Discover Diving at Lagun (absolute nice people over there) and are very sorry that its already over.No doubt about it, stay at Marazul, you'll love it!

1 review “Peaceful, breezy, blue sea, congenial environment”
Our stay at Marazul was perfect for chilling out at the pool, enjoying the night stars, and of course the blue sea was breathtaking. The managers Dorthy and her husband Arthur provided us with everything we needed to make the stay comfortable. Marazul is off the beaten path (40 minutes from the capital Wilemstaad) where you can relax without the tourist crowds of the city. Our apartment was comfortable with soft breezes in the evening that allowed for a comfortable sleep. We did not use our air conditioner as this breeze was refreshing. We started our day with coffee on the patio and ended it star gazing at the pool. This was the most relaxing "how sweet to do nothing" holiday we have ever experienced.

Last july we stayed at Marazul for a mix of Business and recreation. The location is amazing and totaly different from all the resorts at the other part of the island. This is the place for a quiet and peacefull stay.The appartment was perfect for the stay of the two of us although some restoration are needed to keep it in a perfect shape.

5 helpful votes “perfect for diving and chillin'”
With a million dollar view over the sparkling clear caribbean, Marazul offers the perfect location for hassle free diving and relaxing with old and new friends. You can go right out your door and walk down to the water for a morning swim or late evening dip in the 84 degree water. Now there's no beach, but that just makes for crystal clear water and combined with the calm seas, its like having a huge swimming pool at your fingertips. On the way back to your apartment, you can stop by the pool and relax with others before going on to your next activity or just catching a wonderful nap!The new managers, Pete and Annameek, have really turned this place around. They work TOO much, keeping the place neat and providing a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Even their adult son exudes the joy and relaxing spirit of this place as he does his part to make the guest feel welcome and worry free. There is a dive shop next door to the resort, and Harrald, does every thing he can to facilitate the independent diver. And there are other dive shops within a short drive, which offer the full service of boat dives, etc. Numerous, cool, little beaches are also within a short drive. I sometimes hesitate to say to much about little jewels I find for diving, but this is the kind of place that needs to be shared.The location is not for those who need the vibrant night life, although all of that is available with a 30 minute drive to the capital city of Williamstad. Reasonably priced, too, for the traveler on a budget.

rented a studio for 4 days & has been a very pleasant stay, clean kitchenette with microwave and coffee maker and more. The people are doing the utmost to please the guest and make sure you feel at home. Quite place, perfect for relaxation. Can recommend this site to all. Atleast 50 min drive from the capital. The sea is clear and right off the coast it drops down to greater depths, look at the pictures of the bay, the color of the water gives you an impression on the depth.

Dav Aulak's Sports: Midweek Football Picks 2014 (May 13-16)
The domestic football season is about two weeks away from finishing off and the attention will soon turn to the World Cup in Brazil which begins in a little over a month from today.
During this week, we will see the Europa League Final and also a couple of the Play Off Finals in the lower Leagues in England set for the week on Saturday.
It was a surprisingly tough final day in the Premier League for the picks, although it was a late goal from a Fulham youngster and a Sergio Aguero miss from two yards with the goal gaping that prevented it being a very good day.
The good news is that there wasn't too much damage done to the totals for the month thanks to Derby County's success in the second leg of their Play Off Semi Final.
Leyton Orient v Peterborough United Pick: I picked the first leg to have some goals and a little better finishing from Leyton Orient would have certainly seen at least three goals scored, but the 1-1 draw will also make the home team a strong favourite to move through to the League One Play Off Final.
However, Peterborough United have proved their capabilities against Leyton Orient already this season by winning at Brisbane Road and they are a dangerous team that can't be under-estimated considering the amount of goals they do score.
The weather in London might bog down the pitch which could reduce the chances for goals, but these teams love getting forward and I would be surprised if there isn't at least three scored tonight.
I also considered picking Leyton Orient to win a game where both teams score which looks a huge price considering the way games have gone when these teams have met this season, but I am going to stick with just picking the home team to win at odds against.
Rotherham United v Preston North End Pick: If it wasn't for a truly special goal from Joe Garner in the first leg of this Semi Final, I don't know if I would have fancied Preston North End to break down Rotherham United and I believe the home team in this second leg will prevail.
Rotherham have been playing very well at home in recent games and they do score plenty of goals which could make it tough for Preston North End to keep up with them.
The fact that Preston have come off the boil to the extent of losing 3 of their last 4 away games in the League doesn't bode well for them. However, Preston can be tough to beat and that does raise some doubts about backing the home team.
On the other hand, Preston have been beaten at Peterborough United, Wolves, Brentford and Swindon Town on their travels this season and those teams were four of the top seven in the campaign. Goals also change teams approach, especially in a close tie like this one and I have a feeling that Rotherham United can score first and then counter-attack their way into the League One Play Off Final next weekend.
MY PICKS: Leyton Orient @ 2.20 Coral (2 Units)
Rotherham United @ 2.50 Bet Victor (2 Units)
May Update: 9-12, - 0.60 Units (38 Units Staked, - 1.58% Yield)

Schools try to help parents, students cope with recession - tribunedigital-chicagotribune
Schools try to help parents, students cope with recession
Districts hold seminars in hopes of aiding moms and dads in assuaging kids' fears
February 11, 2009|By Mary Owen, TRIBUNE REPORTER
When Lupe Villasenor was laid off from her dental assistant's job, the first thing she and her husband did was sit down with their children at the dinner table.
With four children -- three in high school and one in college -- the Plainfield family decided together where they should scale back.
"We make them aware of things, but we don't want to stress them out," said John Villasenor, a Chicago Transit Authority electrician.
Angst over peer pressure and popularity is common among kids, but experts say they now are feeling anxiety about the economy as they watch their parents suddenly clip coupons and worry about the empty foreclosed houses in the neighborhood.
To support parents trying to help their kids cope, school districts are stepping in. Last week, Plainfield School District 202 sponsored a parent seminar that featured an expert in student stress. And a few weeks ago, the Valley View Community Unit School District 365U hosted an open house for parents to meet with financial advisers and mental health experts.
"We've had kids come to us and say to us that their parents got laid off or were fired," said Kellie Clegg, a social worker at Plainfield East High School. "I think they're carrying these stresses to school with them."
The Villasenors were among 20 parents who attended the Plainfield meeting even though their 18-year-old daughter, Michelle, said her parents are handling things well.
"They are good about making sure we are not too stressed," said Michelle, whose decision to go to Joliet Junior College next year was based in part on finances.
The Plainfield Central High School senior helps clip coupons, brings her lunch to school and has eased off extracurricular activities.
"When my parents tell me to cut back on something, I'm willing to work with them," she said.
Linda Pfeifer, a community liaison from Linden Oaks at Edward, a behavioral health hospital affiliated with Edward Hospital in Naperville, said being honest with children about financial hardship is important -- but in an age-appropriate way.
"They don't need to know every detail," Pfeifer told parents last week at Plainfield East High School. "[But] let them kind of know what's going on with the finances."
Kids need to know that their basic needs will be met, but it may mean they need to make sacrifices, Pfeifer said.
"You have to be that rock and voice of reason," she told parents. "You have to create a certain level of confidence in your kids that things will be OK."
In District 202, which has children from Plainfield, Joliet and five other surrounding communities, the financial picture is diverse. There are kids who live in $300,000 homes and others who live in apartments.
Plainfield was once the fastest-growing community in the state. Now, the foreclosure numbers are equally dramatic. According to RealtyTrac, the Will County communities with the highest number of foreclosures in December were Plainfield (175), Joliet (169), Bolingbrook (111) and Romeoville (85). All are either partially or entirely within the district's boundaries.
While District 202 often holds parent seminars and sometimes taps experts at Linden Oaks, district spokesman Tom Hernandez said the stress seminar was "certainly the first time that this topic has come up."
The idea was sparked by social workers and counselors who noticed that many students were grappling with a laid-off parent and having to cut back on expensive extracurricular activities.
Sherry, mother of a 14-year-old student at Jones Middle School in Plainfield, sees the stress in her son. She said he has been upset seeing his friends' families suffer with financial hardship -- one friend had his phone disconnected and another's family is on the verge of having their home foreclosed.
"He's been wanting to know, 'Are we OK?,'" said Sherry, who did not want her last name used. "He said to me, 'I need new shoes, but if I get new shoes can we afford to still pay the mortgage?'"
Sherry, a nurse, and her husband, who works in the computer industry, assure their two sons they are fine, but tell them they still need to scale back. The family hasn't taken a vacation in a while and has encouraged their son to think about ways to raise money, such as selling bottled water at football practice, to pay for band camp this summer.
While it's difficult for her son to hear about his friends' situations, it's an opportunity to teach empathy, his mother said.
"The other buddies don't know what to say," Sherry said. " They get very quiet. You're 13, 14 years old. How do you say to your buddy that this must be really hard?"
Keep kids calm in tough times
*Assure them that their basic needs will be met.
*Be honest, but in an age-appropriate way. Kids don't need to know every detail about your job woes or bank statements.
*If the family budget needs to be trimmed, sit down and do it as a family.
*It's OK for a teenager to have a part-time job, as long as it doesn't interfere with schoolwork. Kids like to feel they are contributing to the family's household.
*Teach your child to have empathy for friends whose parents lose their jobs or who are having a tough financial time. Encourage them to be supportive, but help them understand that they should not assume their friends' stresses.
*If you find it difficult to talk to your child, let him or her know who else to talk to, such as a school social worker or a family friend.

US 6484034 B1Abstract
What is claimed is: 1. A radio handset comprising:
signal reception means for receiving signals from a plurality of radio stations; reception timing analysis means for analyzing reception timings of signals received by the signal reception means; radio station selection means for selecting radio stations to be used in a position calculation; and position calculation means for calculating a position of a signal reception point of the handset by using the reception timings of the signals from the selected radio stations; wherein the radio station selection means selects the radio stations to be used in the position calculation in such a manner that when reception timings of signals from two or more of the radio stations cannot be separated from one another, the radio station selection means excludes a signal from at least one of said two or more radio stations. 2. A radio handset as claimed in claim 1, wherein the radio station selection means selects radio stations to be used in the position calculation in such a manner that when two or more of the radio stations have an identical PN offset value and delay profiles based on the signals from these radio stations are overlapped, disabling to separate reception timings of the signals from these stations from one another, a signal from at least one of said two or more radio stations is excluded from the position calculation.
the radio station selection means selects the radio stations to be used in a position calculation in such a manner that all the signals from the radio stations whose reception timings cannot be separated from one another are excluded except for one of said two or more radio stations located at the shortest distance from the provisional position. 5. A radio handset as claimed in claim 1, wherein a reception timing error estimation means is provided for estimating errors of the reception timings of the signals from the radio stations, and
the radio station selection means selects the radio stations to be used in the position calculation in such a manner that all the signals from the radio stations whose reception timings cannot be separated from one another are excluded except for one of said two or more radio stations whose signal was received at a minimum timing error. 6. A radio handset as claimed in claim 5, wherein a provisional position calculation means is provided for calculating a provisional position of the signal reception point, and
the reception timing error estimation means calculates as the reception timing error a difference between a propagation time of the signal from the radio station and a propagation time obtained from the position of the provisional position of the signal reception point. 7. A radio handset comprising:
reception means for receiving signals from a plurality of radio stations including radio stations having an identical PN offset value; reception timing analysis means for analyzing reception timings of the signals received by the reception means; and position calculation means for calculating a position of a reception point of the handset by using the reception timings of the signals from the plurality of radio stations; wherein the position calculation means calculates the position of the reception point by using signals from a first radio station group consisting of a plurality of radio stations having different PN offset values to obtain information concerning distances from the reception point to the radio stations of the first radio station group to be considered with the reception timing analysis result, thereby obtaining an error of the position of the reception point; and the position calculation means further calculates the position of the reception point by using signals from at least one additional radio station group consisting of a plurality of radio stations having different PN offset values to obtain information concerning distances from the reception point to the radio stations of the additional radio station group to be considered with the reception timing analysis result, thereby obtaining another error of the position of the reception point; and wherein the calculation result of the position of reception point obtained by using the radio station group having a smallest error is decided to be the position of the reception point. 8. A radio handset for calculation a position of a reception point of the handset by using signals from a plurality of radio stations, the radio handset comprising:
a receiver for receiving signals from the radio stations; a signal reception timing analyzing circuit for analyzing reception timings of the signals received by the receiver; and a controller for selecting radio stations to be used in a position calculation in such a manner that when reception timings of signals from two or more radio stations cannot be separated from one another, at least one signal thereof is excluded form the position calculation of the reception point by using reception timings of signals from the selected radio stations. 9. A position location system comprising:
a plurality of radio stations for transmitting signals to a radio handset; reception means for receiving signals from the plurality of radio stations; a radio handset having delay profile creation means for analyzing a delay profile of the signals received by the reception means; and position calculation means built in the radio handset or provided separately for calculating a position of a reception point of the handset by using the delay profile; wherein the position calculation means calculates the position in such a manner that when signals from two or more of the radio stations cannot be separated from one another in the delay profile, at least one signal thereof is excluded from the position calculation. 10. A position location system as claimed in claim 9, wherein the position calculation means performs the position calculation in such a manner that when two or more of the radio stations have an identical PN offset value and signals therefrom cannot be separated from one another in the delay profile, at least one signal thereof is excluded from the position calculation.
reception means for receiving signals from a plurality of radio stations including radio stations having an identical PN offset value; reception timing analysis means for analyzing reception timings of signals received by the reception means; and position calculation means for calculating a position of a reception point of a handset by using the reception timings of the signals from the plurality of radio stations; wherein the position calculation means calculates the position of the reception point of the handset by using signals from a first radio station group consisting of a plurality of radio stations having different PN offset values to obtain information concerning distances from the reception point to the radio stations of the first radio station group to be considered with the reception timing analysis result, thereby obtaining an error of the position of the reception point; and the position calculation means further calculates the position of the reception point of the hand set by using signals from at least one additional radio station group consisting of a plurality of radio stations having different PN offset values to obtain information concerning distances from the reception point to the radio stations of the additional radio station group to be considered with the reception timing analysis result, thereby obtaining another error of the position of the reception point; and wherein the calculation result of the position of reception point obtained by using the radio station group having a smallest error is decided to be the position of the reception point. Description
For the position calculation result (Xj, Yj) calculated in step 711, a position measurement error is calculated using an error function value F(j). This position measurement error can be calculated, for example, by using an equation as follows. F  ( j ) = 1 N  ∑ j = 1 N   [ { ( X j - BX 0 ) 2 + ( Y j - BY 0 ) 2  -   ( X j - BX 1 ) 2 + ( Y j - BY 1 ) 2 } - C  ( T 0 - T 1 ) ] 2 ( 1 ) wherein
