Hala Shiha's father revealed that the Egyptian actor has not been married yet, responding the circulating rumors claiming that she had already married in secret.
The most recent news was that Hala's wedding was supposed to take place on February 17; however Hala's family revealed that a small engagement ceremony was held and her wedding date is scheduled for February 23.
Hala's husband to be, Hani Adel, is head of the band "Wasat Al Balad" (Downtown).
Hala's father has taken responsibility for the wedding ceremony and the guest list has been limited to close friends and family members.
Hala recently resigned from acting and began wearing a Hijab, an Islamic headdress.
Hala shocked the entertainment world when she announced her resignation for the second time in her career, the first time was in 2003, and recommitted herself to Islam. She moved back to her family's home, and refused to comment regarding her sudden decision.

Get ready for an awards season full of Oprah Winfrey.
E! caught up with the media titan Wednesday morning to talk about her Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for her work in "Lee Daniels' The Butler."
"For someone who was trying not to embarrass myself, it is amazing," Winfrey told E! News at the Hollywood Reporter's Women in Entertainment Breakfast in Beverly Hills.
"The best part is it is a jury of your peers," she added. "It's people who do this for a living--don't make me cry now!--It's people who do this for a living saying we're going to give you a vote. We think what you did deserves this."
Oprah also couldn't help but praise her fellow nominees including close friend Julia Roberts.

"I haven't texted her because I was getting ready, but I was with her the other night and she's a dear friend. And that Lupita [Nyong'o]? Oh, my god! You know, it truly is one of those awards just to be nominated is the real deal."
In an awards season that's just getting started, Oprah certainly has a lot to look forward to.
"I'm going to do exactly what I said to people for years when they came on my show during awards season, 'Just ride the wave. Enjoy it!'" she said.
Also at the breakfast, sponsored by Audi and Samsung Galaxy, were Demi Lovato, Maria Shriver, Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian Odom, Kanye West, Nikki Reed, Judy Greer and Jane Fonda.

Senate goes for 'nuclear option'
The Senate approved a historic rules change on Thursday by eliminating the use of the filibuster on all presidential nominees except those to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Invoking the long-threatened "nuclear option" means that most of President Barack Obama's judicial and executive branch nominees no longer need to clear a 60-vote threshold to reach the Senate floor and get an up-or-down vote.
Story Continued Below
Speaking at the White House, Obama praised the Senate action, accusing Republicans of attempting to block his nominees based on politics alone, not on the merits of the nominee.
"This isn't obstruction on substance, on qualifications. It's just to gum up the works," he said.
( PHOTOS: Harry Reid's career)
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) used the nuclear option Thursday morning, meaning he called for a vote to change the Senate rules by a simple majority vote. It passed, 52 to 48. Three Democrats voted against changing the rules — Sen. Carl Levin of Michigan, Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Mark Pryor of Arkansas.
"It's time to change the Senate before this institution becomes obsolete," Reid said in a lengthy floor speech on Thursday morning.
A furious Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), who tried to recess the Senate for the day before the rules change could get a vote, said after the minority's power was limited by Democrats: "I don't think this is a time to be talking about reprisal. I think it's a time to be sad about what has been done to the United States Senate."
But McConnell quickly noted that Republicans could fix the problem in the upcoming midterm elections if they regain the majority: "The solution to this problem is an election. The solution to this problem is at the ballot box. We look forward to having a great election on 2014."
The debate over the filibuster — and specifically its use on D.C. Circuit nominees — has been raging for nearly a decade, stretching back to when George W. Bush was president and Democrats were in the minority. But changing the Senate rules has always been avoided through a piecemeal deal, a gentleman's agreement or a specific solution, not a historic change to the very fabric of the Senate.
( Also on POLITICO: Reid: GOP playing with fire on judges)
But since Obama's nomination, the "nuclear option" has reared its head three times in less than a year — each time getting closer to the edge. Many in the Senate privately expected that this go-round would be yet another example of saber rattling, but Reid said pressure was increasing within his own party to change the rules.
The blockade of three consecutive nominees to a powerful appellate court was too much for Democrats to handle — and Reid felt compelled to pull the trigger, explaining that "this is the way it has to be."
It didn't take long for Republicans to begin circulating both Reid's and Obama's past statements opposing a rules change. But the majority leader said that things escalated to a level that even he had not thought possible in 2005, when a "Gang of 14" banded together to stop a rules change.
"They have done everything they can to deny the fact that Obama has been elected and then reelected," he said. "I have a right to change how I feel about things."
( Earlier on POLITICO: Court nominees: Battleground for partisan politics)
Senate Democrats were quick to use their newfound powers, voting in the early afternoon to end the filibuster on Patricia Millett's nomination to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. The vote was 55-43, with two senators voting present. Before the change earlier Thursday, Millett would have needed 60 votes to clear the procedural hurdle and move on to a confirmation vote. But now, she needed just 51 to advance.
In his speech, Obama noted that in the few decades before he took office, about 20 nominees were filibustered. Since he took office, close to 30 judicial and political nominees have had their nominations blocked.
"It's no secret that the American people have probably never been more frustrated with Washington, and one of the reasons why that is, is that over the past five years, we've seen an unprecedented pattern of obstruction in Congress that's prevented too much of the American people's business from getting done," Obama said. "Today's pattern of obstruction just isn't normal. We can't allow it to become normal."
Obama also cited the filibuster of a gun control bill earlier this year, although Thursday's rule change would preserve the filibuster for Supreme Court picks and legislation.

From a conic equation obtained from a dot product, I want to plot its 2D graph, while being able to manipulate the variable.
K = {Sin[t] Cos[p], Sin[t] Sin[p], Cos[t]};
oP = {x, y, 1};
noP = Assuming[Element[{x, y, z}, Reals], Simplify[Norm[oP]]];
nK = Assuming[Element[{t, p, x, y, z}, Reals], Simplify[Norm[K]]];
{(K.oP)^2 == (Cos[a]*nK*noP)^2},
{a, Pi/16, Pi, Pi/16, ControlPlacement -> Left},
{t, 0, \[Pi], \[Pi]/256, ControlPlacement -> Left},
{p, 0, \[Pi], \[Pi]/256, ControlPlacement -> Left}
I do get the correct equation, but I am unable to plot it in any way when I take it separately.
ParametricPlot[ 1 == (1 + x^2 + y^2) Cos[\[Pi]/16]^2, {x, -14, 14}, {y, -14, 14}]
show the axes, but not the graph.
Only when I try with the == function do I get the graph, which is not really useful... What should I change?

Slow cooker party mix
Hold the phone!! You can make party mix in the slow cooker?!? Yes, yes you can! I love party mix, but almost never make it, because it's a mess and a pain to make on a baking sheet in the oven. OK, maybe not for most people, but I once dumped an entire batch into the bottom of the oven when the tray slipped out of my hand. You know how much I love my slow cookers, so imagine how excited I was to hear this tasty snack could be made in them! Here's how:
9 Tbsp. melted butter or margarine
3 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 Tbsp. seasoned salt
1 tsp. garlic powder
3 cups woven square corn cereal
3 cups woven square rice cereal
3 cups woven square wheat cereal
1 cup nuts (peanuts, almonds, mixed nuts ... whatever you like!)
1 1/2 cups pretzel rods or small pretzel shapes
2 cups oyster crackers, unsweetened O-shaped cereal, or small cheese crackers
In a small pan over low heat, melt butter or margarine. Add Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt, and garlic powder. Stir to combine well.
Meanwhile, dump all other ingredients in a large slow cooker. Use your hands or a large spoon to toss the ingredients well. Pour the butter mixture over the top, and toss well.
Cook on low, uncovered, for about 3 hours. Give it a good stir every half hour or so.
You can really add any ingredients you like to this, which makes it so easy. If you like spicy treats, add some hot sauce to the melted butter. If you like ranch, add a packet of powdered ranch mix. The possibilities are endless! Honestly, the hardest part of making this party mix is keeping everyone from snacking on it before it's finished. It does crisp up nicely, and tastes just as good as party mix made in the oven. Enjoy!

Right now, the most exciting thing that is happening is that Christmas in LA is at CDBaby (click the button below) and on iTunes and other places.
Christmas in LA is being featured on KCRW 98.1 FM in LA, on "Christmas Becomes Eclectic" with Tom Schnabel, from 2-5 on December 25, 2010
Christmas in LA is on full rotation on the Holiday Channel on Sirius Radio.
Christmas in LA Is playing on KZE, Red Hook, NY, WNTI in NJ and PA, WFLM Appleton, WI and many other stations around the country.
A version with me singing Christmas in LA is on Christine Lavin's wonderful album, Just One Angel, is available at Amazon, among other places.
If you click on SOUNDS you will hear some other tunes that may amuse or delight or thoroughly depress you.
David Rasche, a reluctant California transplant from New York, who had spent several Christmases with his family in Los Angeles, had moved to Santa Barbara. One night shortly after the move, David couldn't sleep -- it was in December and thoughts of Christmas were drifting through his head as he sat at the piano, looking for something. He was thinking about Mel Torme and about "chestnuts roasting on an open fire," and the picture of Christmas that Torme painted. Interestingly, it made David think of those early Christmases he had spent in LA when he and his family had just moved to LA, and how California just didn't seem like Christmas. He yearned for a Christmas like those he had spent as a child in Illinois, and he started to connect the opposites, the hot winds blowing instead of the cold that 'nips your nose,' or driving the freeway instead of going "over the river and through the woods." But as night wore on and the ideas started to form, what began as a sort of complaint changed as it became clear that the true meaning of Christmas had nothing to do with the externals. Christmas is in our hearts, and the spirit of Christmas brings us all together, wherever in the world we are, and Christmas in LA was born.
Ashleigh Still, a much sought after a Minneapolis singer is often referred to as "the Eva Cassidy of Minnesota." Her soul and stunning voice comes from a deep place informed by her hardscrabble experience as a gospel-trained, minister's daughter and now single mother of two. And although her publicity photos could grace the cover of "Bust" or "Glamour," beyond her outer beauty is the wisdom that comes from the day-to-day struggle of making a living for her and her kids. There is an inner flame that burns brightly and has something to say; something about what it's like to be a woman trying to dig out from the conformity of society, religion, and family. In that sense, Ashleigh also reminds us of Anne Sexton and Billie Holiday. For more info go to myspace.com/ashleighstill
David Rasche is an award winning actor and writer, who began his career at Chicago's celebrated Second City, where he worked with such notables as John Candy, Bill Murray and Gilda Radner. He is perhaps best known on TV for playing the dizzy, gun-happy detective on "Sledge Hammer!" in the late 1980s, but has also appeared on "Miami Vice", "Monk" and other shows. Rasche has appeared on and off-Broadway in countless plays by everyone from David Mamet to Shakespeare, and in the movies, you might remember him in the Coen Brothers' "Burn After Reading," or in "Delirious" with John Candy, "The Sentinel" with Michael Douglas, "That Old Feeling" with Bette Midler, "Just Married" with Ashton Kutcher, or "In the Loop" with James Gandolfini. Rasche has written many songs, including the tongue in cheek "I Wish I Was Married to Your Wife," "Turn on the Stars" and "I Love Golf." Like Ashleigh, David is also a preacher's kid.

Motor City News Moves Online
By: Nu Yang
In a city that took a beating during the Great Recession, Detroit's daily newspapers were hit especially hard. With the reduction in print delivery days came a decline in paid subscriptions and a demand for something new. It should come as no surprise that the Internet has stepped up to fill that demand.
Launched in April, Deadline Detroit is a community news website with one goal in mind — to keep local residents informed about the Motor City. Founded by former Detroit Free Press reporter Bill McGraw and former Detroit News journalist Allan Lengel, Deadline Detroit features original reporting and opinion as well as links to other stories, videos, podcasts, and blogs about southeast Michigan.
Initial funding for the project came from Detroit-based software company Compuware Ventures, where McGraw served as director of media relations. McGraw said even though the site is only six months old, Deadline Detroit has been well received by advertisers.
The staff includes four full-time reporters, one interactive sales/marketing director, and three freelance columnists — all of whom are Detroit natives and reflect the group's tagline: "Homegrown Media Revolution."
The site is updated daily, beginning early in the morning with about a dozen aggregated news links related to Detroit. Original stories are also posted, and McGraw said stories range from transportation and politics to local history and technology.
"Detroit is a great news hub," McGraw said. "There has been so much news — good and bad — in the past 60 years … there's also a strong cultural side, especially with music and the efforts to revitalize Detroit … there's so much news to cover in Detroit that there's never any shortage."
McGraw said his Web training started at the Free Press, where his work appeared mostly online. "I learned a lot about the changing media, and it helped me get ready for Deadline Detroit." He also credits his current website developers at Compuware Corp. for their input.
McGraw said he plans to put out a smartphone application, redesign the website to create a better reader experience by adding more categories and topics, and continue to engage in social media. He said the focus will stay on news, features, and culture, but sports coverage may be down the road. He also hopes to expand the staff with one or two more writers.
"It's clear that where and how people are getting their news is changing," McGraw said. "I want Deadline Detroit to be a viable business model … my vision is to see more and more of our own reporting." Visit deadlinedetroit.com for more information.

Why is Africa of growing importance to JLL?
While different African economies are at different stages of development, the continent as a whole has broad parallels with Asia 30 years ago, just before its sustained growth phase. Now, as in Asia then, most major international corporations – and many early developers and investors – are rolling out growth plans across the African continent.
For illustration, here are some of the clients we met with in Kigali this week, all of whom are active in Africa:
- Deloitte
- McKinsey
- Edelman
- First National Bank of South Africa
- Microsoft
- Publicis
- Barclays
- Mara and Atlas Capital Group
- Agility Logistics
- Willis Towers Watson
As at all WEF events, access to senior leaders is easy and informal, and good business opportunities flow. The GE delegation, for example, was led by its head of all non-U.S. business. So, clearly, we are not alone in investing in African growth, and indeed, we are in very good company. We now have growing offices in Egypt, Morocco, Nigeria, Kenya and the Republic of South Africa.
What did I learn at WEF Africa?
First, the mood of African business and political leaders was calmly confident, and the press broadly echoed that. This was very different from the Davos meeting early this year, where the media feasted on China issues and financial market volatility.
I learned that there is growing confidence among African nations, particularly about their potential for sustainable economic growth, which currently stands at around 4 percent annually, despite the negative impacts of oil and commodity price declines on many economies.
There is growing confidence, too, among Africa's leaders. As the generation that won (or grabbed) power after independence relinquishes control in many countries, examples are emerging of good national leadership and governance. As I wrote in my opening notes, Rwanda was chosen as host because it has provided just such a regional example of excellent government. When I spoke with Cyril Ramaphosa, Deputy President of South Africa, on an Infrastructure panel, he was clear in his praise for Rwandan leadership.
There is also progress in developing cross-border regional planning to:
- Develop infrastructure (road, rail, bridges, electric generation and transmission)
- Reduce trade tariffs
- Remove non-tariff barriers to trade, such as transit permissions and trading licenses
- Facilitate the movement of people between countries by removing or simplifying visa requirements
These concrete intergovernmental projects are evolving in three manageable regions;
- The North-South Corridor: Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe
- The Central Corridor: Burundi, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
- The emerging Western group: Angola, Nigeria, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Senegal, Sierra Leone and others
Despite the progress, however, all is definitely not roses!
African countries have relatively low scores in the JLL Global Real Estate Transparency Index, for example. This measures nations on key factors that determine investor confidence, both in real estate and broader commercial assets:
- Transparent data on cost, performance and market pricing
- An independent and reliable judicial system
- Low levels of bureaucracy and red tape
- Low levels of corruption
It is clear that African nations are understanding how to make improvements in these areas, and there is inexorable improvement in the continent's scores on our transparency index.
There is also a perception problem. The world's press shouts bad news about Africa but whispers good news (a global problem, by the way). So the positive developments that must be happening to underpin 4 percent annual growth are not widely reported.
Still, by the standards of most of our developed markets in Asia, Europe and the Americas, living, travelling and doing business across Africa remains very challenging. So I would like to pay tribute to all our JLL colleagues who are working with great persistence and great success to build JLL into the leading real estate service company on the continent.
We will be back in force at the WEF in South Africa next year!

Number 3½: The View from Mason Street, above left (This one only half counts because it's not actually inside the Museum!) I walk to work every morning, and especially in the summer, one of my favorite spots to pause is on the Mason Street Bridge, overlooking the Museum. I've posted lots of pictures of this view on Twitter, and I love looking back to see how the day's light and weather affects the building–it changes every day.
Number 3: Mezzanine Stairwell A curious spot for reflection, I'll admit, but I've been stopped in my tracks more than once by Holzer's hypnotic LED words flashing and floating along the screen. I often feel like I'll never be able to read all the dark, poetic phrases that go by, even though I often stand mesmerized for a good 10 to 15 minutes before I finally go on with my day.
Number 2: The Bradley Rooms Beloved by most in-the-know Milwaukeeans, the Bradley Rooms are a quirky part of the Museum's history. Mrs. Harry Lynde Bradley, who donated almost all of the art on the second floor, asked that these rooms be included for entertaining her family, artist friends, and out-of-town guests. She decorated every last inch of the rooms herself, down to what might be the most cheerful upholstery I've ever seen (take a peek into the dining room!). Combined with the lake view, these couches just might be the most comfortable seating areas in the whole building.
Number 1: The Barbara Hepworth Galleries While the couches in the Bradley rooms are probably the most comfortable spots in the Museum, the most meditative and relaxing, for me, is the Barbara Hepworth gallery. Reclining on iconic Mies van der Rohe "Barcelona" chairs, overlooking the lake, you're surrounded by the matte marble and shining bronze of the British artist's tall, curving sculptures. I think it's the combination of those three aspects of this quiet room that put me instantly in a calmer state–which is why, when my email inbox gets full, you might find me taking a breather from the computer screen right here.
What's your number one favorite relaxation spot in the Museum?

When You Question God's Love
- 2010 3 Nov
EDITOR'S NOTE: The following is an excerpt from Real Encouragement for Real Life by Jeff Schreve (From His Heart Ministries).
I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have drawn you with lovingkindness. —Jeremiah 31:3
When my wife and I first started dating and getting serious, my future mother-in-law was less than thrilled. She thought I was all wrong for Debbie, and she made no bones about the fact that she did not like me very much. When I asked for Debbie's hand in marriage, all her mother could do was cry. That was not the response for which I had hoped.
It was tough in those early days of our relationship, when we would get together with Debbie's mom (Debbie's dad liked me just fine). I tried to love her mom as she was, but it was uncomfortable being around someone I knew did not like me.
Do You Like Me?
Have you ever had to be around someone who did not like you? Someone at work or at school or at church or in your own family … and you had to spend time with him or her. It is awkward and uncomfortable, isn't it? It is something that you dread, isn't it?
Let's face it, we do not like to be around people who are disappointed, disgusted, and displeased with us. We shy away from encounters with those who don't like us very much.
What about God?
I am convinced that the reason so many people spend so little quality time with God is because, deep down, they do not think God likes them very much. Sure, they know in their head that He loves them, but they are pretty sure He is displeased and disappointed with them most of the time. Listen, it is a chore—not a joy—to spend time with the Lord when you believe He is negative toward you.
Nothing could be further from the truth. God thinks you are terrific! He thinks you hung the moon (well, actually He did, but you get the point). He has your picture in His wallet and your name on His lips. He thinks about you all the time and loves to spend time with you. He loves you with an everlasting love! He calls you His special treasure (Exodus 19:5).
"But Jeff, you don't understand. I have so much sin in my heart. How could God be anything but displeased with me?" Remember, God is displeased with sinful actions, but He is not displeased with you. There is a big difference between the two.
My Girls
God has blessed me with three wonderful daughters. I am so proud of them and love to spend time with them. I think about them with joy, not disgust. Do they ever do things that displease me? Have I needed to discipline them for disobedience (although they are a little old for that these days)? Yes … but I am never displeased with them, just displeased with their actions from time to time. I would love them and want to be with them no matter what they did. They are my girls … and because they are my girls, I am well pleased with them. So it is with God and His children.
Will You Accept It?
It is time for you to believe and receive the truth. Jesus said, "You shall know the truth, and the truth will make you free" (John 8:32). If you've asked Christ to come live in your heart, you are a child of God. And God is inviting you to spend time with Him … to rest in His unconditional love and enjoy it! He wants you to know that He not only loves you, but He likes you and thinks the world of you. He wants to be your best friend. What do you say to that?
For God so loved the world … —John 3:16
When our girls were little, we taught them this familiar little song: "Jesus Loves Me This I Know, for the Bible Tells Me So." What a simple message, easy enough for a child to understand. But the sad reality is this: so many people have trouble believing it is true.
In my counseling and my personal life, I have found it is very easy to start thinking that God accepts and loves us on the basis of performance. We are quick to adopt the "daisy theology": "He loves me, He loves me not." We tend to think, God loves me if I am obeying Him, but He doesn't love me if I am failing Him. Your feelings may tell you that is a true statement, but I want you to know it is a lie! Regardless of your behavior or performance, God loves you!
The Father with the Son
The day Jesus began His public ministry, the father's voice thundered from heaven as soon as Jesus was baptized, "This is My beloved Son in whom I am well-pleased. Listen to Him" (Matthew 3:17). How amazing; how significant! Before Jesus had performed one miracle, the Father publicly set His love and approval on Him. Do you see the principle? God does not love you based on your performance. He loves you because He chose to love you, regardless of your performance.
If you know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, you are a child of God (1 John 3:1). And God loves His children, every one of them. He has no favorites, only intimates. And the intimates are those who have learned to believe and receive His love for them and act accordingly.
The Secret to Pleasing God
Do you want to know the secret to pleasing God and living a life of obedience to His commandments? It all has to do with believing and receiving His great love for you. When you understand how much He really loves you, you can't help but really love Him back: "We love, because He first loved us" (1 John 4:19). And when you really love Him back, you obey Him: "He who has My commandments and keeps them, He it is who loves Me" (John 14:21).
The key is love. It is all about love, God's love for you and your response of love for Him. That is why Jude earnestly pleads, "Keep yourselves in the love of God" (Jude 1:21). The love of God is the cornerstone of a victorious and thrilling Christian life.
Why not take some time today and meditate on His love for you? Read Ephesians 3:14-21, and let God root you and ground you in His limitless love. You will be amazed at the peace and joy that will flow into your heart as you believe and receive His love.
"For this reason, I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man; so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen." —Ephesians 3:14-21
When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars,
which You have ordained; what is man that You take thought of him? And
the son of man, that You care for him? —Psalm 8:3-4
When I was in college at the University of Texas, I used to go to the library at night to study. As I would walk home to my dorm at 11:00 p.m. or so, I would look up into the night sky and think about the greatness of God. I felt so small compared to the vastness of the universe. I would say with David, "Wow, Lord. Who am I that you would care for me or even give me a thought? You are so awesome, and I am so insignificant."
The Truth of the Matter
God is so much greater than our minds could ever comprehend. He created all that we see, all that the highest-powered telescopes can reveal, just by the power of His Word. He simply spoke it all into existence. Universes drip off His fingertips.
The Bible says that God is so "off the charts" glorious and majestic that He even has to humble Himself to behold the things in heaven (Psalm 113:6). Did you catch that? Every time God looks around heaven, it is a humbling experience for Him. Now, that is glory to the nth degree!
And here is the even more amazing part: this same, infinite God is crazy in love with you and me. We matter to Him. He thinks about us all the time. His thoughts toward you and me outnumber the sand on the seashore (Psalm 139:18). How cool is that?
Why Does God Love Us?
Why does God love you and me so much? Why did He send His Son to die such a horrible death for us on the cross? It is not because you and I are so wonderful; it is because God is so wonderful (Deuteronomy 7:6-9). The Scripture clearly tells us, "God is love" (1 John 4:8). Love is a big part of His nature.
God chose to love us regardless of who we are or what we do. Because it was God's choice, it is not dependent on you and me. Talk about getting off the performance-based acceptance train! Here is truth to put in your heart: There is nothing you can do to get God to love you any more than He already does, and there is nothing you can do to get God to love you any less than He already does. He just loves you!
Our job is to receive His love and rejoice in His love. Obedience to His commands comes when you realize that everything God tells us to do or not to do is for our greatest good. The God who loves me tells me yes to some things and no to other things. His commandments are not given to deprive me; they are given to bless me, because every one of them is given in love.
Tonight, go outside and look up into the starry sky. Consider His heavens. Consider how great He is. Then, remember that the awesome God who made all that you see knows your name. He knows your circumstances. He knows your victories and your struggles. He knows everything there is to know about you, and He loves you still.
Share your hopes, dreams, worries, and fears with Him. Tell Him that you love Him. Cast all your cares upon Him, because He really does care for you (1 Peter 5:7)! Remember this great word from Isaiah the Prophet, "For since the world began, no ear has heard, and no eye has seen a God like You, who works for those who wait for Him" (Isaiah 64:4 NLT)! He truly will work in the hearts of those who will look to Him and wait for Him. Will you do it?
Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in my love. —John 15:9
Quite often, I talk to people who have a hard time really believing that God truly loves them. They believe that God loves people, but they are not so sure He loves them. They do not see themselves as deserving or worthy of His love, so they surmise that He does not/could not love them. Does that describe you?
In John 15, Jesus says to abide in His love, to stay connected and remain in His love. He says His love for you and me is as great as the Father's love for Him. Wow! Can you get your mind around that?
Without question, the most important thing in your life and mine is to believe this truth: God really does love us with an everlasting love. The greatest commandment is to love God with all we have within us (Matthew 22:37). We cannot begin to do this until we understand and receive His great love for us: "We love, because He first loved us" (1 John 4:19).
One of my favorite verses in the Bible is found in 2 Chronicles 7:3, "And all the sons of Israel, seeing the fire come down and the glory of the Lord upon the house, bowed down on the pavement with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave praise to the Lord, saying, 'Truly He is good, truly His lovingkindness is everlasting.'" Did you catch that? It says, "truly!" Truly, He is good, and truly, He loves me!
When I blow it and the devil moves in on me to tell me God does not love me anymore because of a sin I committed, I remind myself of "truly." When life is falling apart and I feel forsaken of God, I remind myself of "truly." The fact of "truly" trumps all my negative feelings and all the devil's lies.
It is a rock-solid truth that God is good and that He loves you and He loves me. Over and over and over again, the Lord speaks of His lovingkindness (His loyal, faithful, and unfathomable love) toward us. If there is anything we should know from reading the Bible, it is this main truth. The bloody cross of Jesus Christ screams out these life-changing words, "I love you!" Even though you and I are sinners and have done terrible, horrible things, God still loves us and wants to work mightily in our lives.
The Sooner, The Better
The sooner you believe and receive God's great love for you, the better you will be. What happens to a person who truly believes and receives God's great love?
That person feels a tremendous sense of acceptance and peace.
That person will be free to love the Lord back.
That person will be free to love other people (see Romans 5:5).
That person will be able to face life with joy and a song in his or her heart.
That person will see difficult circumstances as an opportunity for Jesus to shine.
My Confession
For me, I have to continually remind myself of the truth of God's love, because I can easily see all my shortcomings and conclude that there is no way He could love me. I can easily start focusing on all the negative circumstances in my life and conclude that all these difficulties are arising because He does not love me. Those are lies from hell!
As I write this, I am making a fresh declaration this day. I invite you to join me in it:
I am tremendously blessed and favored because the One who matters the most, God, thinks the world of me. He truly loves me … and nothing can ever change that (see Romans 8:38-39). He has purchased me with His own blood, and He has a special and wonderful plan for me. I choose to believe and receive His love and reject the devil's lies. I will rejoice and be glad this day because He loves me, He is good, and He never fails to work all things together for good in my life.
Remember, my friend, your number-one job as His child is to keep yourself in His love … and love Him back with all that you are. If you do this each day, you will be led by His Spirit, and your life will be a great success in His eyes.

When Benjamin Franklin wrote that "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" he had no idea he would be describing one of 2012's hottest trends in health care and investments, something known as social impact bonds. The details are complex, but the concept is based around a simple idea.
"What we're really trying to do is demonstrate that there's a business case for prevention," says Rick Brush, founder and CEO of Collective Health. The company has selected Fresno's Clinica Sierra Vista to launch the first social impact bond in the country to focus on health care. And here in the Central Valley, their efforts at prevention are focused on one of the area's biggest health concerns, asthma.
"When you look across what's driving health care costs in any particular area, in Fresno we know that asthma is a significant issue, so we look at opportunities to prevent the most severe cases of asthma and asthma emergencies," says Brush.
Brush says the idea is to attract money from investors to pay for up-front treatments, in this case relatively small steps that can reduce indoor air pollution. Health providers save money with reduced costs, and they share those savings with the investors.
"If we keep it simple and focus on bringing money to the table where we can really make a difference in communities, and also at the same time generate a financial return for those investors who are essentially giving us a loan to make those improvements in communities, I think that we'll be able to demonstrate something really powerful," says Brush.
While this is the first time that a social impact bond has been focused on health care, similar projects have recently launched in other fields. In 2010, a social impact bond in the United Kingdom debuted with a goal of reducing the number of ex-prisoners who wind up back behind bars.
"In the United States, really this is just starting to gain momentum. New York City was the first to announce a program using a social impact bond, and that also was for prisoner recidivism, and the state of Massachusetts is launching a couple of social impact bonds, one for prisoner recidivism, and one for reductions in homelessness," says Brush.
The New York City project was lead by a nearly $10 million investment from the Wall Street firm Goldman-Sachs over four years. If the project is successful at keeping teen offenders from returning to jail, Goldman-Sachs stands to profit from money the city would otherwise spend on incarceration. If it fails, the company could lose millions.
Back in Fresno, Kevin Hamilton, deputy chief of programs for Clinica Sierra Vista, says he was initially skeptical about the project.
"Trust me, when I first heard about this, which was about 8 months ago, 10 months ago, I was a skeptic," says Hamilton.
But he says he soon saw the potential, not only for the investors to profit, but also for savings to be invested back into more preventative programs.
"If the health insurance companies agree that this money that they save is money that they can then re-invest to repeat the process along the way, this could be very powerful," says Hamilton.
Hamilton says his group was chosen for this project in part because of his research into the effectiveness of in-home interventions in preventing asthma attacks caused by indoor air pollution. Other project partners include UCSF and the Central California Asthma Coalition.
According to numbers provided by Collective Health, the project plans to conduct interventions for 1,100 Fresno children who have been diagnosed with asthma. Together they account for $17 million in health care costs for emergency room visits, hospitalizations and follow-up visits. With an initial investment of $1.1 million, the project has set a goal of reducing total costs by $6 million. The savings to insurance companies and Medi-Cal will allow the investors to be repaid with 5 percent interest, and the rest of the savings can be re-invested into care.
So what types of interventions can generate such a dramatic cost savings? It often turns out to be things that many of us take for granted, like making sure kids get regular checkups at the doctor, and clean carpets.
"We'll also be doing an in-home assessment, to determine what kind of housing they live in are there problems in the house like old carpets that are full of dust, is there a mold problem, asthma-safe cleaning solvents and things like that, are the families using that, do they have access to those kinds of things, do they have a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter, all of those sorts of things will be assessed. And wherever there are things that could be corrected this project will be supplying us with money to do that. We have approximately $1,000 to spend on each household," says Hamilton.
That means if a family has dust filled, moldy carpet, Hamilton's crew will help replace it, and work to fix the source of the problem. Or purchase a new vacuum cleaner. According to Hamilton, everything from indoor air filters to pest removal and weatherizing windows can have a big impact on indoor air quality and asthma attacks.
"You're talking about reducing costs around this chronic illness by about one third. So if you can put one sixth of the money in, and get a reduction of costs of one third, and the money that you put in, you only put in [in] year one, and in year two, you're not spending any extra money, you continue to realize that profit if you will, over time, it's got a long term impact," says Hamilton.
John Capitman, executive director of the Central Valley Health Policy Institute at Fresno State says that while the idea behind this project's financing may be new, it's especially well suited for a treating a chronic disease such as asthma.
"This is one of the areas where we've got the best potential to make this idea work. Here in Fresno we have a high proportion of people with badly managed asthma. It's severe, but they're just not succeeding at keeping it well under control, either because of their environment or their access to care or because of things that are outside of their control, such as air quality. So this plan brings to people's home all kinds of help to improve the environment of their home and to help them learn new skills and new access to health care to helpfully improve their outcomes. And the potential exists to reduce costs of asthma care for these types of folks by a significant amount," says Capitman.
Still, for other diseases, Capitman remains somewhat skeptical of the potential behind social impact bonds.
"I think that for many health issues the changes that people need to make in their lives and in their environments are probably more expensive than that, or have longer returns on investment than may be acceptable to social impact bond investors. I think there are a limited number of health issues that this might work with," says Capitman.
The uncertainty around the future of the social impact bond model in the health care system is part of the reason for the Fresno program. Rick Brush and Collective Health will use the project to gather data, and hopefully attract future investors. Until now most of the investors in such projects have been philanthropic foundations, but Brush also sees potential with institutional investors and beyond.
"We also think that high net worth individuals, especially those who favor social impact in the investments they make, will be very interested in this, and we're starting to see that around the country, and around the world with other social impact bonds," says Brush.
If all goes well, the Fresno project hopes to get underway early next year. The California Endowment has been funding the early planning stages of the operation, and Brush and Hamilton hope to receive a significant investment from the Endowment that would launch the project.
Brush also says that as social impact bonds catch on, some laws may need to be changed to allow governments to participate in the program and pass along general fund savings to investors.
But while the results of this first of its kind investment in prevention are still a couple of years away, right now, the promise of bringing investors and health providers together remains very appealing.
"If the idea works I think people will jump on it. I think the idea of seeking ways for private investors to make money and add to the solving of social problems is very exciting," says Capitman.

WALTHAM, Mass. – The Brandeis University men's basketball team shot a season-high 59.1 percent from the floor (26-of-44), including an astonishing 73.7% in the second half (14-19), as the Judges defeated visiting Case Western Reserve University, 77-58, in a University Athletic Association (UAA) matchup in Red Auerbach Arena today.
With the win, the Judges improve to 11-2, 3-0 in the UAA, sitting atop the standings along with Washington University. The Spartans fall to 8-6, 1-2 UAA.
The Judges led by just four points at halftime, 33-29, but they connected on 10 of their first 12 shots – including nine in a row - in the second. After Case battled to tie the contest at 35-35 on a pair of Dane McLaughlin (Westerville, Ohio/St. Charles Prep) free throws 2:30 into the second period, Brandeis scored 15 of the next 19 points in the game to go ahead by 11. Juniors Derek Retos (No. Attleboro, Mass./Brimmer and May School), Ben Bartoldus (Hillsborough, N.H./Proctor Acad.) and Gabriel Moton (St. Petersburg, Fla./St. Petersburg) scored all of Brandeis's points in the run, with two Retos foul shots at 11:52 making it a 50-39 contest.
After the Spartans scored two of the next three buckets to slow the momentum of the hosts, Brandeis embarked on another big run. A 13-3 string pushed the lead to a game-high 19 points at 65-46 on two Moton foul shots with just 7:19 remaining, and the Judges cruised from there.
Brandeis put four players in double figures for the second game in a row and fifth time this season. Moton and Retos tied for game-high honors with 17 points. Moton had eight in the first half and nine in the second, while Retos added 12 second-half points. Retos was nearly perfect for the game, hitting 5-of-6 from the field, 2-of-3 from downtown and 5-of-5 from the line. Bartoldus finished with 13 points, while sophomore Ishamel Kalilou (Windsor, Conn./Taft School) came off the bench with 10 points, his second-straight game in double figures.
Moton led all players with seven rebounds, as the Judges owned the boards, 35-23, including 18-8 in the second half. Bartoldus had five caroms to add to the total.
Junior forward Alex Stoyle (Goffstown, N.H./Tilton School) tied for game-high honors with three assists, as 10 different Brandeis players registered a total of 16 helpers on 26 baskets. In addition to their hot shooting from the floor – it was the fifth time this season they hit better than 50 percent and second time over 55 percent – the Judges also connected on 21-of-26 from the line (80.8%).
Case had three players score in double figures, with sophomore Jordan Dean (St. Johns, Fla./Creekside) matching Moton and Retos with 17 points – 10 in the second half. Dean hit 5-of-9 overall, 2-of-5 from downtown and 5-of-5 from the line. Senior Austin Fowler (Farmington Hills, Mich./Birmingham Brother Rice) and junior David Thompson (Plano, Texas/Plano Senior) each had 10 points. Fowler added a team-high six rebounds, while Thompson had five. Rookie Jimmy Holman (Ann Arbor, Mich./Pioneer) led the Spartans with three assists. Case Western Reserve was held to just 37.5% from the field (21-56), well below their 44.8% season average.
Brandeis returns to action when the Judges kick off a four-game UAA road trip at the University of Chicago next Friday evening at 9 p.m. Eastern/8 p.m. Central. Case hosts Emory University next Friday at 8 p.m. EST.

Screw her.
She can take her for a week and see where she gets.
I recently, within the last three months, have changed my parenting methods. Or at least given it one hell of a go. I have completely quit spanking. (Yes, I was a spanker. I am from the south. It was the way I was raised. Getoffme.) I have also quit screaming. I have gone to time outs and taking away things she loves. There are a couple of problems with this new method:
1. She will continue to push me until I am broken. At which point all patience is gone. And I will break, at which point I will scream. (Although I have not spanked in quite a long while. I have popped to get her attention.)
2. In order to take away things she loves, I end up having to take away things from not only my oldest daughter, but myself as well.
3. It is a very s.l.o.w. process. One which I am struggling to complete.
I know that parenting does not come with an instruction manual. I also know that this is something we sign up for during that unwritten contract that comes with being a parent. However, I also thought parenting was not something that should/would produce tears on a daily basis. At least not the bad kind.
I am at the end of my proverbial rope. I have been hung. My daughter has twisted, turned, and beaten me into a person I no longer like being. It is exhausting. And sad. I get that she is hard headed. Stubborn. Independent. Strong willed. And recently has lost control of a few areas of her life. Yes, even five year olds need to be in control of something. They like the feeling and need to have at least a little bit of control. Just like us big people. With some of the changes that have taken place in the last quarter of a year, she is no longer in control. This is part of the reason for the fits. The other part I am sure has something to do with my lack of a routine. The chaos she causes can sometimes make a routine hard to accomplish. I do understand there are other things that cause the fits. What I do not understand is why? Even though she sees me trying. Even though she understands what it does to me, her sister, and everyone around her. Even though it makes her life increasingly harder each time. Why? What makes her need to see me broken so strong? What makes her just not care?
What is so sad is that she can be a great kid. She can be so sweet and caring. She is so intelligent and soaks up everything new like a sponge. I love seeing her grow and change. She is funny and likes to make other people laugh. She likes to help and know that she has helped. She can be so on top of things. Be perceptive of things that normal five year olds would not even pick up on. Loves to help cook and set the table. Understands how to do laundry and will offer to sweep and mop. Constantly sings. She can be amazing.
Mostly just for other people. Lately, as soon as I walk in all bets are over. She just spent the entire weekend at my aunt's house. Somewhere she has never stayed before. She was perfect. They went on and on about what a joy she was to have over and would love to have her again. She was so polite and sweet. And then ten minutes before we left, went all Rosemary on us. Over chocolate milk. Really? Chocolate fucking milk?? Calgon, drown me in bubbles. I was so embarrassed and shocked. Well maybe shocked is not the right word. Nothing shocks me anymore when it comes to her swings. I just could not believe it. In one instant she turned a great weekend into a nightmare. And since we have gotten home it has been a struggle. Now, she just ran in here so proud of the fact that she read the word "TAP". Completely different child from 30 minutes ago. The therapist brings up words like Bi-Polar and Defiance Disorder. I think of words more like 'my payback' and 'so much like her mother'. Either way, something has to change.
I know that there are many other moms out there that have had to deal with difficult children. Whether it was when they were younger or older. I know that the teenage years are yet to come. I am just hoping that she gets most of this out of her system before then. I am just hoping I survive till then.
What worked for you? How did you survive? Have you figured out the why?

With uncertainty still surrounding the next Chicago Public Schools budget because of contract talks with teachers, dozens of charter school advocates Monday packed an auditorium inside a LEARN charter school on the West Side to call on the district to maintain spending on charters.
Officials from the city's most prominent charter schools, including United Neighborhood Organization (UNO), Noble, Chicago International Charter and others are asking the school board to make good on the proposed $76 million allocated to the charter community in this year's budget.
The longer the contract negotiations play out, the more charter supporters worry that money may not materialize, said UNO chief executive Juan Rangel.
"I understand the pressure from (the union), that's their job, but not at the expense of our kids," Rangel said. "We want this budget passed. They made a commitment, pass the budget.
"I know how this game gets played, and we're not going to allow the CTU to negotiate charters out. If CPS is serious about reforming the school system, and serious about charters as a key strategy, they need to come through on their commitment."
Andrew Broy, president of the Illinois Network of Charter Schools, said each year charter schools educate more CPS students. Now is not the time to curtail plans for future charter expansion, he said.
"Over the past couple of weeks we've seen a drum beat of commentary in the press about whether we can afford charter funding," Broy said. "We want to make clear that it's a priority for the district."
The $76 million set aside for charter schools in the 2012-13 school year largely restores funding that was stripped away three years ago, Broy said. It does not fully address the needs of the growing charter community, he said.
"We want our voice heard as this political process works its way out," Broy said.

The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
Only a select few films have been called "the most beloved of all time." Annual TV airings earned the title for "The Wizard of Oz" (1939) and "It's a Wonderful Life" (1946), while box office receipts have made strong cases for "Gone With the Wind" (1939), "The Godfather" (1972) and "Star Wars" (1977). But in the internet age, a new generation of Millenials holds up a new contender: "The Shawshank Redemption."
Only in today's culture of rapid film consumption and instant web response could a film like "Shawshank" rise the ranks of reverence to do battle with the listology kings of academic glory. This is why I'm choosing to launch The Film Spectrum with "Shawshank" alongside "Citizen Kane." In many ways, "Shawshank" has become the "Citizen Kane" of IMDb, with more than half a million viewers flocking to the site to rank the film No. 1. Continue reading

The reason why we're so into cellphone straps here is for their ability make otherwise boring cellphones slightly more interesting—or great cellphones a little greater. Case in point? This chalkboard cellphone strap.
It's a miniature chalkboard complete with chalk and eraser so you can doodle or write little notes to yourself while you're out. Need to take down a number? Write it on the chalkboard. Just be careful when you put it into your pants or you'll have a pocketful of chalk and no date for the weekend. Sounds like all four years of high school and parts of college for us.

Randy Travis is one step closer to recovery, having been discharged from a hospital in Plano, Texas, and relocated to an inpatient physical-therapy facility in the wake of his recent health woes.
The news — which is in line with what Travis' doctors predicted in mid-July — came Wednesday via the country star's rep.
The 54-year-old singer, who was hospitalized for heart problems before suffering a stroke that required surgery to relieve pressure on his brain, had been getting "aggressive physical therapy" since mid-July, his doctors said, at the Heart Hospital Baylor Plano, where he'd been since July 8. He was first admitted to an ER in McKinney, Texas, on July 7.
RANDY TRAVIS: Career in pictures
His doctors said it will probably take months for Travis to recover from the stroke, which was a complication of measures taken to deal with what was determined to be congestive heart failure.
He'd reportedly been in fine health until three weeks before entering the ER; during that time he'd been fighting off a viral upper-respiratory infection.
"Thanks to all the fans and friends for your continued prayers and support as Randy continues on the road to recovery," Travis' fiancée, Mary Davis, said in a statement issued Wednesday.

FOR anyone who enjoys a good metaphor, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani's visit to the United Nations has been a field day for sheep and wolves. Rouhani has been dubbed both a "wolf in sheep's clothing" and a "sheep in wolf's clothing" and Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu of Israel called Iran's previous president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, "a wolf in wolf's clothing."
The important question, though, is not who Rouhani is but what kind of country Iran's regime wants it to be in the 21st century and what role nuclear power will play in shaping that identity. Seen from that perspective, there's only one relevant question: Is Iran content to be a big North Korea or does it aspire to be a Persian China?
North Korea built a small nuclear arsenal for two reasons: to protect that regime from threats from the outside and from threats from the inside. That is, North Korea's leadership believes that nuclear weapons make it impervious to regime change from abroad and that the international isolation that has accompanied North Korea's nuclear weapons program keeps its people down — on a permanent low-calorie diet of both food and information. It's a foxy survival strategy for a crazy regime: a nuclear iron fist that keeps the world at bay with one hand and its own people isolated and weak with the other — all the while North Korea's leaders gorge on imported fast cars and fast food.
Iran's leadership also sees a nuclear weapon as potential insurance against regime change from abroad, and surely some in Iran's leadership, namely the Revolutionary Guards, benefit from the sanctions at home. The more isolated Iran is the less economic competition the Guards have for their vast network of industrial enterprises, the more valuable are their sanctions-busting smuggling ports and the more isolated Iran's people are from the very global trends that produce things like the 2009 Green Revolution. These hard-liners never want to see an American embassy in Tehran.
But Iran is not North Korea. It's a great civilization, with great human talent. It can't keep its people isolated indefinitely. In theory, Iran's regime does not have to keep the world out and its people down for Iran to be powerful. But do Iran's leaders accept that theory? Some do. The decision to re-enter negotiations is a clear signal that crucial players there do not think the status quo — crushing sanctions — is viable for them anymore. Because they are not North Korea, the sanctions are now threatening them with discontent from the inside. But how much of their "nuclear insurance" are they ready to give up to be free of sanctions? Are they ready to sacrifice a single powerful weapon to become again a powerful country — to be more like a China, a half-friend, half-enemy, half-trading partner, half-geo-political rival to America, rather than a full-time opponent?
This is what we have to test. "We've been trying for so long to use control dynamics to contain Iran that we've lost sight of the fact that we actually want the Iranians — specifically the ruling elites — to change their behavior," said Col. Mark Mykleby, a retired Marine and co-author of "A National Strategic Narrative" for the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff. "I'm all about being tough as nails on them, and I sure don't trust them, but I also believe we need to give them the option to change their behavior."
Added Nader Mousavizadeh, the Iranian-American co-founder of Macro Advisory Partners and a former top aide to U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan: "If we are prudent enough, strategic enough, and sufficiently disabused of our ability to remake countries in our own image, then we begin to see Iran as the potential China of the Middle East — with all the promise that holds, and all the challenges we know from just how hard the path with China's been since Nixon's trip."
The process of getting there would be fitful, and surely ugly at times, but, if done properly from Iran's side and ours, it could lead to Iran's gradual reintegration into the world economy, the empowerment of its educated, young middle class, "and the emergence in Iran of multiple centers of power, similar to that undergone by the Communist Party in Beijing over the past 30 years," noted Mousavizadeh. No, this is not ideal. "In a perfect world, we'd see a much speedier transition to a genuinely free society. But if a détente with the West can deny [Iran's] regime the excuse of foreign enemies and foreign entanglements, Iran may then see its path to legitimacy also through reform and the enabling of the Iranian people's immense economic, technological and educational potential. Just like China."
China's leaders are not Boy Scouts either. Yet we've found a stable, mutually beneficial relationship with Beijing as "frenemies." I remain a skeptic that Iran's regime can generate the internal consensus to make a similar transition. But then few thought China could either. Secretary of State John Kerry has the right attitude: No lifting of sanctions for anything less than the airtight closure to any possible weaponization of Iran's nuclear program. That's the only deal worth having, and the only way Iran will decide if it really is a China in Persian clothing — or something like that.

Very Good 8.2 From 594 reviews
Friendly staffs, great location (6 minutes walk to Beach Walk and the beach is across the street from the hotel), rooftop view, Infinity pool, very clean room.
I would recommend this hotel to my friends and family. The location was awesome, right across from the beach and walking distance to everything you can think of. I would like to thank this hotel for making my 13 day holiday stay such a wonderful experience, from the professionalism and kindness of the entire staff - security team, housekeeping, front desk and to servers and most delicious breakfast buffet every morning. This hotel is one of the best hotels I've stayed at. Thank you all so much!!!!!
Good location, clean room but very noisy in late morning (1-2am & 5-6am) and lousy breakfast ..
The location was good right across from street. The bed was comfy. But the paper thin walls ruined our trip every night. You can hear the people next to you breathe. Every foot step in the hallway. Also the WiFi wasn't great. It hardly worked.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

While everyone's spewing out Windows 8 hybrids all over the place, Acer has an 11-inch ultrabook that looks pretty exciting.
The Aspire S7, the apparent semi-successor to the Aspire S5, has an 11-inch 1366x768 touchscreen (the same resolution as the 11-inch MacBook Air) made of Gorilla Glass, Core i5 or i7 processors, HDMI and USB 3.0 ports. It's unclear what RAM options look like, but it's probably safe to assume the 4GB/8GB model of current gen ultrabooks.
We don't have pricing information, but Acer's obviously jumping on the "make our best stuff touchscreens" end of the bus. The S7 looks slim and beautiful and well-made, going by the Verge's look at it. And it doesn't have the annoying and worrying rear mechanized dock connector of the S5.
Anyway, the S7 looks pretty good, and we'll let you know more when we do. [Verge]

Up until now, removing brain tumors has been a fairly imprecise—and thus highly dangerous—art. Cancerous tissue in the brain looks almost exactly like healthy tissue, and being just one millimeter off is enough to permanently affect a patient's quality of life. Plus, it's almost impossible to tell if any post-surgery neurological damage is from the tumor or the surgery itself. Jim Olson, a pediatric neuro-oncologist, looked to an unlikely source to solve the problem: scorpion toxins.
For reasons still not fully understood, injected toxins from a scorpion's sting will only bind to cancerous tissue and, as an added bonus, have the relatively rare ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. By creating a synthetic version of this toxin and binding it to molecules that glow in near-infrared light, tumors can be set aglow and, hopefully, save a lot of healthy brain tissue in the process. With a glowing tumor, surgeons would finally be able to identify cancerous cells with relative ease, making it far easier to avoid healthy tissue.
Successful tests have already been run in which a mouse playing host to a human tumor had the "tumor paint" injected into its tail. Within 20 minutes, the cancerous tumor began to glow, setting it apart from the rest of the mouse's body. Even though it originated as a venom, researchers say the toxin "seems to be safe." While not exactly a winning endorsement, the life-saving potential is overwhelming, and human trials should be starting sometime in late 2013.
