By ADAM SERRANO
The San Jose Earthquakes aren't hoping to catch lightning in a bottle again, but rather a year that signals their return to prominence for good.
Earthquakes forward Chris Wondolowski was the story last year, scoring 18 goals and earning the Golden Boot in 2010 and helping lead the club to the Eastern Conference finals. The impressive play by Wondolowski and midfielder Bobby Convey, as well as the timely goalkeeping of Jon Busch, helped bring San Jose back to the playoffs for the first time since the franchise was reborn. The challenge for Frank Yallop's men is to prove that last season was no fluke.
To improve that, the Earthquakes have worked hard in the offseason to make moves for players who can complement Wondolowski and add an additional punch to the San Jose attack. To do this, the Earthquakes traded away their first-round pick in last month's SuperDraft to the Columbus Crew for Steven Lehart and drafted Akron midfielder Anthony Ampaipitakwong.
In order to return to the playoffs and remain a major player in the highly competitive Western Conference, the Earthquakes have a number of looming questions. Yallop will need encore performances from Wondolowski, Convey and Busch to answer some of them.
Here is a closer look at the Earthquakes preseason:
Training schedule: Feb. 1-5 in San Jose; Feb. 6-11 in Ventura; Feb. 12-16 in San Jose; Feb. 17-27 at Spurs Lodge in London, England; Feb. 28-March 18 in San Jose.
Preseason game schedule: At Home Depot Center: Feb. 7 vs. Chivas USA; At Oxnard Sports Complex: Feb. 10 vs. LA Galaxy; Feb. 11 vs. Ventura County Fusion; In San Luis Obispo: March 4 vs. Colorado Rapids.
Key arrivals: F – Steven Lenhart; MF – Anthony Ampaipitakwong, Tony Donatelli; GK – David Bingham.
Key departures: F – Eduardo, Cornell Glen; MF – Geovanni, Arturo Alvarez; GK -Joe Cannon.
What to watch for: Lost in the shuffle behind Convey and Wondolowski is Brazilian midfielder Andre Luiz. He missed much of 2010 after a devastating knee injury, but the slick-passing Luiz is approaching full fitness and the Earthquakes attack should be bolstered by his re-introduction. In 2011, the Earthquakes will also be looking for added contribution from another 2010 injury casualty, Ike Opara. The defender scored three goals and was a Rookie of the Year candidate before his broken foot ended his season. Opara looks to be an integral part in the Earthquakes defense in 2011, but he will need to show his top form to win a spot ahead of Jason Hernandez or Brandon McDonald, who impressed at the end of last season.
Of note: For the second year in a row, the Earthquakes will travel to London to train with partner club, Tottenham Hotspur. During their stay with Tottenham last year, the Earthquakes faced the Spurs reserves as well as the Colorado Rapids. Look for the team to face English competition again during their latest trip…The club is currently in negotiations with midfielder Khari Stephenson, who played for the team last year but was not re-signed…The Earthquakes open their preseason exhibition schedule with a match at the Home Depot Center against Chivas USA on Monday. The friendly is open to the public.
They have four good centerbacks… I bet DC or NE could use one.
Jon in Quakes Land
That's one of the biggest questions I have. How are they going to put together a back 4 when they have Hernandez (a lock), Opara, Burling (underrated!), and McDonald all able to play CB? Hernandez and McDonald have said to have great chemistry in the back, but how can you not have Opara in there? I personally hate Tim Ward, so if Jason is deemed good enough for RB, then a Corrales/Opara/McDonald/Hernandez backline would be absolute money to me.
I hope they develop a style that will bring Ampaipitakwong into the role of creative midfielder. He might be a year or two away from being ready to be the guy who pulls the strings, but he has the vision and skill to transform the way soccer is played in the MLS.
@ Jon in Quakes Land, remember when they tried Jason at right wing a few times when leitch was hurt and before we got Ward? mixed results- and only his recovery speed saved him at times. BMac prefers midfield, but he's second choice to Cronin- and maybe even Brad Ring.
like you i think our backline is corrales, Ike, Jason, but Tim or Chris Leitch on the right.
@ Dennis, word from training camp is Ampai is already getting a lot of time in the AM role these first two weeks. i hope he develops fast and can contribute right away, but we may look to USL addition Donatelli in that role, especially if Sealy and Andre Luiz aren't fit in time.
The tottenham connection is through Billey Beane, the brain behind Moneyball (see link). He lended his unique statiscal approach to scouting to Tottenham a while back and upon joing the Quakes, linked the two clubs together.
"When the A's ownership group agreed to purchase the reincarnation of the San Jose Earthquakes of Major League Soccer, Beane, who is an avid supporter of Tottenham Hotspur of the English Premier League, began developing a system for objectively analyzing soccer players. He has agreed to help the Earthquakes front office develop a method for building a cost-effective team, as the salary cap in MLS is even more restrictive than the A's small-market status in Major League Baseball"
I'm just hoping that Doyle and Yallop are not done signing players. While Ampai has skills, he's still some time away from adjusting to the speed and size of MLS defenders. Andre Luiz on the other hand is likely to miss the first few games of the season while recovering from his injury and who knows how effective he'll be once he's back. We need that player in the midfield that will pull the strings from day 1.
It will be a while before Opara is match-fit, and IMHO Burling is clearly a fall-back option. McDonald has been a good band-aid, but he isn't really a strong option – he gets caught ball-watching a little too often. With Andre Luiz still recovering and Ampaipitakwong still too-fresh, we might see McDonald in a destroyer position, with Burling filling in at CB. And don't forget (and Serrano's preview fails to notice this), we still don't have a strong claim for the RB position).

High Pay, Low Stress: The Perks of Tech Jobs
High pay, low stress, little physical exertion; these are just some of reasons why those that hold tech jobs are some of the happiest workers across the globe. In fact, a recent study found that 36% of those in IT love their career, while 76% reported overall job satisfaction.
For many this comes as little surprise, since tech jobs have always ranked high on the "˜Best Jobs' list year in and year out. And there's another reason for this glowing report card: the pay. With the average salary coming in around $90,000, the fruits of your labor are definitely abundant.
As a growing industry that's constantly changing, IT jobs are in high demand. But with a very small pool of skilled developers to choose from, companies have had to step it up to attract new employees. As a result, it's not just salaries that have to be competitive. Companies like Hootsuite and Amazon have introduced state-of-the-art facilities where staff can work, play, and essentially live in the same complex. From complimentary yoga classes to the coveted beer keg collections, offering both competitive salaries and lifestyle amenities are now vital to attract the top workers in tech.
Of course it's not all fun and games. Working in IT can be a tough career choice at times. Deadlines can be short and hours can be long. Plus you're expected to be an expert on advanced technologies that could be obsolete before you even get them installed. However, compared to an Undersea Internet Cable Repair person or an Electronic Assembler (both of which topped the Worst Jobs in IT list), the occasional late night may be worth the sacrifice.
Perhaps one of the most attractive features of tech is that there's always room for growth. Whether you're working for a start-up or a Fortune 500, the diversity of roles that need to be filled never quite seems to end. You may start as a digital marketer, dabble in code, and become a full-fledged website developer all within a few years. Limitation is something you'll never have to worry about, and to many, that makes the tech industry even sweeter.
Wondering which tech career is right for you? Check out our Summer Programs or better yet, chat with a RED instructor.

Colin is the CEO / Managing Director of RED Academy. He originally started his career as a classically trained musician and sound engineer, before switching to the tech industry where he has been working for the past 15 years. While he sounds British, don't let that accent fool you; his roots are Dutch, and he calls Amsterdam his hometown.
Also the founder of Drive Digital, one of Western Canada's biggest digital agencies, Colin is inspired by watching people create and seeing them find fulfillment in doing something they believe in. Colin is excited by the idea that the Internet connects us all, increasing transparency and accountability. He strongly believes that purpose is a bigger driver in people than profit, which will lead us to a better, fairer, more conscious world – values that dictate the foundation of RED.

To say I have known about Lawrie all my life is putting it mildly. I was born a year after his infamous goal against Liverpool in the 1988 FA Cup Final but growing up in a house full of Wimbledon fans, and becoming one myself, means he is always talked about fondly at our place.
Now he is manager of Barnet and they will be looking to get three points against us because they are currently near the bottom of League Two. I hope he gets the great reception from the fans that he deserves.
I know that he doesn't like the team he played for being called the 'old Wimbledon' and ourselves the 'new Wimbledon' - I think it's because it makes him feel older than he actually is - but obviously most of the supporters have followed both clubs and the connection is the same.
We need to get the win, too, after a difficult few weeks, although there is no way we will underestimate them. Lawrie is a quality manager who has international experience and will make sure his team bounce back from the difficult time they've had lately.
Barnet are an incredible club. They always seem to be struggling against relegation and yet find the character to get out of it.
Last season they got out of trouble on the final day - I must admit that is something I want to avoid because it would be bad for my blood pressure!
Mind you, I am used to close escapes at the moment. Recently the club took part in a charity do which raised money for Shooting Star Chase Hospice for terminally ill children and OneLife.
It was a black tie event with some celebrities there, although we're talking Brian Belo from Big Brother and a few actors from EastEnders.
Anyway, six AFC representatives got on stage, from manager Terry Brown to commercial director Ivor Heller, and people were bidding for them to get their heads shaved.
Ivor's barnet went for £8,000 and in total they collected £16,000 from all the AFC hair! I was asked to do it but I couldn't face losing my locks! I did buy a raffle ticket, though.
I must confess I'm not sure these glitzy dos are quite my scene. I know people associate footballers with a glamorous lifestyle but I felt uneasy when I walked in with my suit on and I didn't have a bow tie. But, thankfully, a few of the guys turned up in some bland grey suits and I didn't feel so out of place. Still, it was a good night and we were happy to help raise some money.
Now we are looking to improve our League form and, like some Premier League clubs, we are trying to find the balance between attack and defence.
We have been a bit cavalier and that is why we played a tight, defensive game in the 0-0 draw at Shrewsbury last week. A rare clean sheet made us feel like we'd won it.
Hopefully, we can get another against Barnet as well as a few goals at the other end to have something to really celebrate even if it's at Lawrie's expense.

[Lioele] Pure White Essence 40ml
Lioele Pure White Essence has essential whitening ingredients that form water droplets which penetrate deeper inside skin to hydrate. This whitening essence enhances skins softness for longer. Hyaluronic Acid is essential for our skin. It's what keeps the collagen in our skin hydrated and maintaining the structural shape. Without hyaluronic Acid our skin would be dry and collagen would lose it's elasticity. Hyaluronic Acid plays an important role in our skin's ability to stay youthful. As we get older, our skin will start to lose the ability to keep hydrated and hold on to moisture. This creates wrinkles and sagginess. While collagen firms skin, it's not effective without Hyaluronic Acid.
[How to Use]
Apply small amount evenly over face after use of toner and before lotion.

LibreOffice is a well-liked office suite, but not so much its spreadsheet component, Calc, which is known to be slow for even simple calculations. Now AMD has stepped in to provide GPU support that should speed things along. It seems that the LibreOffice programmers are trying to make the code fit in with AMDs Heterogeneous Systems Architecture (HSA) but the code itself is going to be written in OpenCL. This brings some hope that the optimizations might work with other GPUs such as NIVIDA's.

Developing a matrix to identify and prioritise research recommendations in HIV Prevention
HIV prevention continues to be problematic in the UK, as it does globally. The UK Department of Health has a strategic direction with greater focus on prevention as part of its World Class Commissioning Programme. There is a need for targeted evidence-based prevention initiatives. This is an exploratory study to develop an evidence mapping tool in the form of a matrix: this will be used to identify important gaps in contemporary HIV prevention evidence relevant to the UK. It has the potential to aid prioritisation in future research.
Categories for prevention and risk groups were developed for HIV prevention in consultation with external experts. These were used as axes on a matrix tool to map evidence. Systematic searches for publications on HIV prevention were undertaken using electronic databases for primary and secondary research undertaken mainly in UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, 2006-9. Each publication was screened for inclusion then coded. The risk groups and prevention areas in each paper were counted: several publications addressed multiple risk groups. The counts were exported to the matrix and clearly illustrate the concentrations and gaps of literature in HIV prevention.
716 systematic reviews, randomised control trials and other primary research met the inclusion criteria for HIV prevention. The matrix identified several under researched areas in HIV prevention.
This is the first categorisation system for HIV prevention and the matrix is a novel tool for evidence mapping. Some important yet under-researched areas have been identified in HIV prevention evidence: identifying the undiagnosed population; international adaptation; education; intervention combinations; transgender; sex-workers; heterosexuals and older age groups.
Other research recommendations: develop the classification system further and investigate transferability of the matrix to other prevention areas; evidence syntheses may be appropriate in areas dense with research; have studies with positive findings been translated to practice?
The authors of this study invite research suggestions relating to the evidence gaps identified within remits of Public Health or any appropriate NETSCC programme.
Follow the 'Suggest Research' links from:
HIV/AIDS persists as a major global health priority with the number of people living with HIV continuing to increase
In the UK 6,630 people were newly diagnosed as HIV-infected in 2009; half were diagnosed late in infection progression; approximately 22,000 are living with HIV but remain undiagnosed (from unlinked anonymous testing)
The scale and nature of sexual ill health and inequalities in England are of concern to policy makers
Evidence mapping can make a positive contribution to policy agenda, with several research and policy gaps being fed into existing prioritisation channels: this was a concluding point from the Specialty Mapping Pilot by J. Shepherd in 2007
This study began on the premise that HIV prevention is an area in need of novel evidence-based interventions and that important yet under-researched areas within HIV prevention exist: these could be identified through thematic categorisation of the many possible combinations of risk groups and prevention related activities. We therefore devised a categorisation system for HIV prevention and piloted a matrix tool to identify gaps amongst the many contemporary studies on HIV prevention from countries with possible relation to HIV in the UK.
A literature scoping exercise was undertaken to identify existing methodologies for conducting this work. The closest appropriate were the Global Evidence Mapping Initiative
Development of the matrix
Four external experts were consulted and participated in the proposed classifications. These classifications represent important structural, contextual, behavioural, biomedical, service approaches, risk groups and combinations of these (see Additional file

Definitions of risk groups and elements of prevention. The file explains the working definitions for this study

Publication searches
A search was made of the NIHR HTA programme Access databases (PROMIS) using the key term 'HIV' from inception in 1995 to March 2009. All topics identified and screened for being HIV prevention specific were eligible for inclusion. This longer time period was searched to provide additional internal audit, but research prior to 2006 was later excluded to match the time period of this study. A systematic search of major electronic databases including MEDLINE, MEDLINE In-Process, EMBASE, and Health Management Information Consortium (all Ovid) and the Cochrane Library were then searched using a carefully designed and tested search strategy (see Additional file
Additional file 2
Search strategy. The full search strategy conducted by Alison Price, information specialist
Click here for file
Published studies were searched from 2006 to July 2009 as HIV is a rapidly changing area of health and contemporary evidence was deemed more useful in this exploration of the matrix. Due to the time and resource constraints the searches were limited to English language only, which is considered an acceptable limitation under such circumstances
Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Any study where the stated aim is to investigate HIV prevention through epidemiology, policy, methods or various interventions; studies which aim to reduce infectivity of HIV positive people by reducing viral load (VL) through treatment adherence and reducing treatment resistance; studies which investigate behavioural and social factors stated to relate to risk of HIV infection; English speaking countries only; studies from UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand; publication dates 2006-2009 inclusive; systematic reviews, randomised controlled trials and other primary research of high quality (hierarchy of evidence) - case-controls, surveys, cohorts.
Studies which explore merits of HIV treatments but are not stated to be concerned with reducing viral load (VL)/infectivity to others e.g. side effects; depression/stress studies that do not mention links to risk of transmission or reduction of VL; studies that relate to HIV but are not stated to be concerned with risk of transmission e.g. relationships with children; primary research of low quality (hierarchy of evidence) - case studies, expert opinion, anecdotal evidence, narrative reviews.
Search results, coding and quality assurance
Search results were downloaded to three electronic Reference Manager (version 11) databases according to study types: systematic reviews; randomised controlled trials; other primary research (prospective/retrospective cohort studies, surveys, case-controls, but not case series). Each publication was screened for study type, date of publication, geographical area and if actually HIV prevention (see Inc/Exc criteria above). Included studies were screened against definitions (Additional file
Population of the matrix
Coded records were exported from Reference Manager to the matrix in an Excel spreadsheet which contained formulas for placing and counting the codes in corresponding cells within the matrix. Each cell was subdivided by study type, each column and row was totalled and each area with no research was left blank for easy visibility.
Publication search results, coding and quality assurance
From 1995 to March 2009 NIHR, HTA received 80 suggestions and proposals relating to HIV prevention. Out of the 80 suggestions five were prioritised and research subsequently funded. Publications were evident for two of the five studies although one of these was excluded due to being outside the inclusion date range 2006-9 (the other studies are still ongoing). The one remaining included study was a systematic review on post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP)
From electronic database searches we identified 1648 publications across the three research design groups. 40 were excluded in the initial screening for duplications. Through Mimas Zetoc Alert Service for HIV prevention articles two additional articles were found and added to our databases. A total of 1610 international publications were suitable for further analysis (Table

Population of the matrix
After verification, the scores of the included studies were exported to the appropriate cells in the matrix. First impressions from the high numbers of studies identified suggest that HIV prevention is generally a heavily researched area, however, the results shown in the matrix draw attention to some unexpected exclusions within this field. The dense, sparse and empty areas of research are visually evident within HIV prevention activities, risk groups and study types -
Figure 1
The Matrix
The Matrix. This is the tool devised to map HIV prevention evidence published 2006-9
This method and tool could easily and rapidly be replicated in other prevention areas such as obesity by: a) defining headings for the matrix, b) search literature, c) code publications and export to matrix.
Areas for prioritisation from the matrix findings
The matrix has highlighted several important areas within HIV prevention research that represent potential for novel and innovative research of interest to practitioners, commissioners, policy makers and researchers alike. We detail below those evidence gaps we believe would be most useful for future research in HIV prevention:
Sero-sorting: identifying the undiagnosed population
The Health Protection Agency (HPA) 2010 report shows over a quarter of people who are HIV+ve are not aware of their status
International adaptation
the majority of HIV prevention research originates from USA yet the matrix identified just three publications
We searched for studies investigating the effects of interventions such as prosecutions and policies regarding confidentiality, mortgages, travel restrictions and ethics on HIV prevention. Three publications
Combination packages of interventions
Limited HIV prevention resources could be optimised through synergy. We identified ten publications addressing this area. The majority of these were systematic reviews that analysed more than one intervention. Only two
Social/population level factors
Relative to other areas of prevention social factors are revealed to be researched in moderation; 25 studies were identified. These studies examine factors such as gender, race, housing, poverty; only two
Risk groups
Interestingly, the matrix has illustrated some least targeted but potentially emerging risk groups. These include older age groups, transgender, sex workers, male, heterosexuals, other ethnic (besides black/African), socially excluded and other vulnerable risk groups. Our findings indicate that risk groups such as HIV positive, drug and alcohol users, Men who have sex with men and young people are the most targeted groups for study sample populations. However, examining the quality of these studies went beyond the scope of the current research.
Principle findings
To our knowledge this is the first study to identify research gaps in HIV prevention using this novel method. In order to develop the matrix, we created a classification of prevention related activities and risk groups; a novel building block of the study as called for by Akers in 2003
Table 2
Areas of HIV prevention research for prioritisation as identified by the matrix
Prevention Area
Research published 2006-9
Why Important?
4 secondary research
This population could have major implications as a source of new infections. We suggest research in the area of sero-sorting could help learn more about people within the undiagnosed population beyond the limits of current HPA unlinked anonymous surveillance, which may underestimate undiagnosed figures e.g. a recent community testing study in Scotland found 41.7% undiagnosed HIV
1 RCT 2 secondary research
More research here would be in the interests of shared learning and reduced duplication across many countries, not just USA and UK. Only One of three studies identified in this area points out that an HIV prevention intervention found to be effective in US cities might not be generalisable to different times and settings
3 secondary research
The small number of studies found in this area was unexpected since a government white paper in 1998 attempted to update the Offences Against the Person Act 1861 and several prosecutions were successful in early 2000's. All the factors under this heading have potential to affect stigma and discrimination, barriers to testing and reluctance to disclose HIV status and are therefore potentially valuable areas for investigation.
3 RCTs 7 secondary research
If a person's reasons for being at risk are multi-faceted, interventions could be also. A recent article in the Lancet concludes: We now require an urgent and revitalised global movement for HIV prevention that supports a combination of behavioural, structural, and biomedical approaches and is based on scientifically derived evidence
5 RCTs 5 other primary 11 secondary research
Recognition that social, economic, political, and environmental factors directly affect HIV risk and vulnerability has stimulated interest in structural approaches to HIV prevention
18 RCTs 10 secondary research
Education can be employed in many different ways and settings, as a starting point for raising awareness, understanding transmission, how to protect against infection and reducing fear. It was sometimes difficult to separate education from behavioural interventions as one seeks to affect the other; we were guided by how studies described their interventions and what outcomes were used. More research in educational intervention could be valuable.
There was no facility within the search strategy or Reference Manager to identify multiple publications from one study. A manual search of a quarter of the database found 11 publications from 5 studies. As there is no systematic way to identify multiplications or adjust the matrix cells with certainty we could extrapolate from this quarter sample and estimate that 44 papers (out of 717 included) will come from 20 studies. However, in our conclusions we concentrate on the least populated areas of the matrix (Table
Publications that focused on more than one risk group were problematic. By consensus the project team agreed to repeat the count according to the risk groups addressed. This appeared the only way to fairly represent groups studied; however, this can cause confusion when the counts of risk groups and prevention areas do not match the numbers of publications identified. This is an area for potential improvement.
The limited remit of this study did not enable us to critically appraise beyond the hierarchy of evidence. In heavily researched areas like behaviour change, the density of evidence does not necessarily equate to high quality, robust research or provide evidence that translates to effective prevention. However, in the USA the Centre for Disease Control have already set up a project to synthesise evidence in relation to behavioural interventions: The Prevention Synthesis Project
HIV prevention in the UK remains problematic; effectiveness of current prevention efforts appears limited; novel and innovative, evidence-based approaches are needed in HIV prevention. HIV prevention remains one of the great challenges for sexual health in the UK
A matrix tool and classification system has been developed to identify important research gaps in HIV prevention; both may be useful in other health areas.
Several important gaps in English language HIV prevention research since 2006 were identified by the matrix: identifying and understanding the undiagnosed population; International adaptation of research; education; intervention combinations. The key under-researched risk groups were transgender, sex-workers, heterosexuals and older age groups.
Three additional future research recommendations have been identified during this study: investigate further use of the classification system we have developed and transferability of the matrix to other health prevention areas; evidence syntheses may be appropriate in areas dense with research, if not already being carried out by CDC Prevention Research Synthesis Project (Behaviour); have studies with positive findings have been translated to practice and how many recommending future research have been follow-up with funded studies?
The authors of this study invite research suggestions relating to the evidence gaps identified within remits of Public Health or any appropriate NETSCC programme.

|Mon, 27 Jun 2005 20:19:13 GMT
Hi, I've managed to download and compile the source for both teh main Jackrabbit project and (with a few tweaks) the ORM-persistence contrib project, but I'm not sure how to get my application working with the orm stuff. The readme.txt file suggests changing a couple of files depending on which db you want to use, but not how to change Jackrabbit from using the filesystem to using orm. Has anyone got any pointers? Otherwise I'm really excited about Jackrabbit and JSR-170. Congratulations to all involved. TIA /Digby

The Cabin GuestHouse is a fully furnished one bedroom, side by side duplex. The guesthouse has a private entrance, fenced yard, wireless internet, flat screen cable TV, stocked kitchen, full bath, washer/dryer and parking next to the unit. The duplex is one of two duplexes on the property. You may rent both the Cabin and the Cottage (HomeAway Listing#912285), side by side duplex if you require two bedrooms or more!
Conveniently located in the Fairview District, just between downtown and midtown, the view to the east is the vast Chugach Mountain Range, and to the west, one mile to downtown Anchorage and Cook Inlet.
Nearby are New Sagaya City Market, Europa Bakery and Kaladi Brothers Cafe. Convenient to everywhere! Minutes from downtown, the Alaska Railroad Depot, Joint base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska Native Heritage Center, University of Alaska, Providence and Alaska Regional Hospitals, Alaska Native Medical Center.
Close to shopping, bus lines, restaurants, cultural attractions. Anchorage boasts the Anchorage Museum of History and Art, great restaurants, namely Glacier Brewhouse, Orso, Sacks, Simon and Seafort's, Crush, offering fresh fish caught in Alaska waters and vegetables grown in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley. And my favorite breakfast at Snow City Cafe!
Fabulous shopping from Nordstrom to boutiques like Second Run, Blush, Skinny Raven in the SoNo District and stores specializing in Alaska hand-crafted arts and crafts, Once in a Blue Moose, Cabin Fever and many more.
Summer and Winter outdoor activities abound in the nearby Chugach National Forest, Russian Jack Park and Coastal Trail. Enjoy world class skiing at Alyeska in Girdwood. Come join us for Fur Rondy in February, and the Iditarod is a great time to come in March!
And heading out of town: Easy access to the Seward Highway heading south to Girdwood and the Kenai Peninsula, and to the Glen Highway heading north to the Matanuska-Susitna Valley, Wasilla, Palmer, Denali National Park, Fairbanks.
South to Portage Glacier and the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, the old mining town of Hope and on to the Kenai Lake and River.

Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, I moved to Alaska in 1998 to work in Deadhorse-Prudhoe Bay, in the Arctic on the Beaufort Sea. I quickly became enchanted with this beautiful place we call Alaska! If you love the outdoors, this is the place!
Michele Palatas purchased this cabin in 2002
I purchased this duplex in 2002 along with two more, and made four of the units, fully furnished guesthouses.You may rent both the Cottage (912285) and the Cabin if you require more room. Since then I have had the pleasure of welcoming guests from all over the world to our city nestled between Cook Inlet and the Chugach Mountains.
The convenience of being near to downtown and midtown, the Seward Highway heading south and the Glenn Highway heading north, make this a perfect location to get out and experience Anchorage and nearby attractions. The two cottages in the back, The Cabin and The Cottage (912285) are only one of two in all of Anchorage. Built in 1951 to accommodate personnel at the first airstrip, Merrill Field, they have been completely renovated in the past couple years, and the Cabin and Cottage are now quite cute and comfortable.
Thank you so much Michele. This has been one of my most relaxing yet busy trips I have taken in a long time. I love your place. It is so cozy and warm. It has been delightful.
Wonderful place to stay. Michele was fantastic to work with. Everything in order.
We loved our stay!!! Great place!! Michele was quick to answer any questions and very helpful!!
What a great little home away from home. Very friendly communications with the property manager and an overall great experience.
We were pleased to stay at the cabin for 8 nights. The cabin was homey, good value, very clean, free parking and met our needs well. Had everything we needed and a large grocery store within 5 minutes drive. The Alaska Coastal Trail was a 10 minute drive and great for walking. Downtown Anchorage was 2 miles. Since there would be two of us sleeping in the bedroom, the owner made certain that we knew the bed was a "double" before we booked. While we would have preferred a queen size, it was fine. The owner was responsive - answering our questions, quickly having a problem remedied, providing tourist recommendations, etc. We would stay here again and recommend it to others. It was not fancy - no great scenic vistas - rather, a modest duplex in a working class neighborhood. I am giving it a "5" because each night it felt like coming "home" and it was a good value for the cost.
This was our second time staying at this duplex. The 'cabin' is comfortable, well maintained and decorated and has most anything you might need. My hubby loved the fluffy towels. Michele is friendly, available and helpful. We spent almost a week here visiting our son; this location was very convenient for seeing him, a quick trip downtown, or easy freeway access for exploring the area. We will happily stay here again.
Having lived in Fairbanks for more than 10 years, I travel occasionally throughout state including Anchorage and have come to prefer VRBO rentals over hotels whenever possible. This was a perfect location for quickly getting to campus for training classes while also being within close driving distance to several restaurants and shopping when needed. Yet I could also just relax and enjoy the peacefulness of the location or take a leisurely walk if desired. The duplex was perfectly arranged with everything I needed during the stay in Anchorage and would comfortably allow 1-2 more people. I will definitely stay again! Highly recommended.
The Cabin GuestHouse is conveniently located in the Fairview District, just between downtown and midtown. The view to the east is the vast Chugach Mountain Range, and to the west, one mile to downtown Anchorage and Cook Inlet. Nearby is New Sagaya City Market, Europa Bakery and Kaladi Brothers Cafe.
Close to shopping, bus lines, restaurants, cultural attractions. Anchorage boasts the Anchorage Museum of History and Art, great restaurants, namely Glacier Brewhouse, Orso, Sacks, Simon and Seafort's, Crush, offering fresh fish caught in Alaska waters and vegetables grown in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley. And my favorite breakfast at Snow City Cafe!
Ski: A drive thirty minutes south on one of the most beautiful drives in the world, will take you to Alyeska Resort and the best skiing in and around southcentral Alaska!

Course overview
Mining engineers plan and manage operations to exploit minerals from underground or open-pit mines, safely and efficiently. They design and direct mining operations and infrastructure, including drilling, blasting, loading and hauling, tunnel creation and maintenance, access road planning and maintenance, and water and power supplies.
Mine engineers may supervise other engineers, surveyors, geologists, scientists and technicians working on a mine site. Working in metropolitan or regional locations around the world, mining engineers can have adventurous careers.
What the course involves
In this major, you will study engineering as well as basic science subjects. As you progress, emphasis will be placed on mining science and technology, which involves the study of soil and rock mechanics, explosive and rock breakage, materials transport, mining methods, mine planning, project evaluation and the environment.
After your Engineering Foundation Year at Bentley, you can go directly to Curtin's Western Australian School of Mines (WASM) in Kalgoorlie, or study for a second year with WASM in Perth before completing your third and final years in Kalgoorlie. Studying in Kalgoorlie will provide you with meaningful exposure to the mining industry.
You will need to complete at least 12 weeks of engineering work experience during the summer breaks, in order to graduate from mining engineering.
As part of a double degree program, you can study Bachelor of Engineering (Mining Engineering) with Bachelor of Commerce (majoring in Accounting, Economics, Finance or Management).

Kirk out to kill Glentoran's dream
Paul Kirk has thanked Tommy Anderson for making his Lisburn Distillery dream happen — now he is hungry to destroy Glentoran's title ambitions.
Another afternoon of nervous tension is on the menu at the Oval today, with Lisburn Distillery the visitors as Glentoran cling on to their one point lead over Linfield at the top of the table.
The visitors will be searching for the victory which will guarantee them a top four finish.
Glentoran will have very different ideas, as they hunt down their first taste of Gibson Cup glory since 2005.
The last time the Whites left the Oval in December the Glens fans were content after a 0-0 stalemate extended their lead at the top of the league to EIGHT points.
A goal-less draw this afternoon will not be greeted with as much enthusiasm.
Kirk knows the stakes are high but he also knows that his Whites outfit are a match for anyone.
"I put myself under pressure," he said. "I've worked hard for 13 years where Distillery are now classed as a quality outfit.
"We had to get out of the First Division and we have built and built and reduced the age of the playing staff while enhancing the quality. This is all down to Tommy Anderson — he has made the dream happen for me. I appreciate that greatly. Not only is he a great friend of mine, but he is also a great vice-chairman.
"I have a good working relationship with him and it is one we want to bear fruit. When the players mature and if we can hold onto them, the club can thrive.
"Linfield and Glentoran measure their success in terms of league championships but we cannot lose sight of our goals which aren't as high.
"The managing director of Falkirk told me if they finish sixth in the SPL it is a good achievement for the side and that is a man who has a realistic outlook given what can be achieved with budgets.
"The Big Two have the history and financial resources as well as bigger fan bases. We operate in a different world."
However, a quick glance at the Whites' teamsheet highlights the quality Kirk can unleash on the best.
And there is no shortage of former Glentoran players in a position to hurt their old club today.
Peter McCann, Gary Browne, Darren Armour, Andy Kilmartin and Ben Browne used to wear the green, read and black — as did Kirk.
"I just want my players to keep their performance and concentration levels high," added Kirk.
"We try to do things constructively and pass the ball well.
"In (Gary) Browne and (Curtis) Allen we have two flair players up front and we are a good attacking team. Gary Muir has got great technique and he can smash a ball with both feet. He can be a real threat to teams.
"We need other teams to do us a favour by beating Crusaders but we also must play winning football ourselves. These final games are all about winning. They are tight games as there is a lot at stake — they are cup finals. The European places do not bother me and I haven't a clue about them — what bothers me is winning football matches."

A MUM today told how she and her two children walked out of a Rizzle Kicks
concert in disgust after being blasted by a tirade of swear words from the
Natalie Hanson booked tickets for herself and children, Connor, nine, and
Georgia, 12, to see the hip-hop duo after checking there was no age
restriction for the concert.
But she said she was left shocked when the first support act, Little Nikki,
took to the stage and repeatedly said the f-word throughout her set.
The second artist on stage, Mikill Pane, then encouraged the young audience to
swear along with him and put their middle fingers up in the air, she said.
Natalie, 38, tried to cover her daughter's ears and her son had to bury his
head in her lap during the performance.
She eventually left the concert in Southampton, Hants, with her two children
in tears.
The mum-of-two, from Bournemouth, Dorset, complained to the venue afterwards
and has since received an apology and the £70 she spent on the tickets back.
Rizzle Kicks' music is mainly aimed at young teenagers and their concert was
open to all ages. There were no prior warnings to parents about language or
Natalie, a sales assistant, said: "I booked the tickets in March for my
daughter's birthday, and she and my son were both really looking forward to
"I had looked into other acts like Lady Gaga but they came with an age
restriction, so I looked elsewhere and saw that Rizzle Kicks were open to
all ages.
"We waited about 45 minutes for the first support act and when she came
on it was full of lots of use of the word f***. I was shocked.
"I distracted my son with my phone but Georgia was very aware of what was
being said, but we tried to ignore it.
"When the second act came on it was much worse. Every other word was f***
and then the audience were told to stick their middle fingers up.
"I was absolutely furious with what was being said, there was no warning
at all and there were young children there and some grandparents who just
didn't know what to do.
"It was upsetting. Connor buried his head in my lap, he doesn't hear that
language at home and I wouldn't have expected him to at the concert.
"I asked the steward if we could leave the venue and come back afterwards
for Rizzle Kicks but he said we weren't allowed to, so I left."
Natalie has received an email from bosses at the Southampton Guildhall who
explained they were not informed of any language or gestures prior to the
The email read: "Unfortunately, the venue was not informed that there
would be any use of such language or gestures.
"I can assure you that if we had, we would have taken every opportunity
to inform our customers so an informed choice could then be made."

Very impressed with work - finally I got someone who was able to diagnose & fix long-standing problem with overflow. Would definitely recommend!!
Right from getting a quote from Matt he was the only choice. The detail he gave when pricing up the job was first rate. He answered all questions I had and offered great advice throughout the quote and the job itself. Weather hampered the job but he still turned up and patiently waited in the van until the rain cleared. Great communication when he was unable to turn up due to persistant rain and gales blowing. I advise all users to use Matt. The cheapest quote and excellent workmanship. Thanks Matt .
