text: Has the JFK Assassination been finally solved? from an amateur historian, a citizen who has studied the JFK Asassination for decades now My estimation is that about eighty percent of the JFK Asassination Conspiracy material is smokescreen and/or outright bunk. I herewith submit some authors and titles on the subject whom I regards as honest authors each one revealing a distinct angle of the JFK case. That way other students of the JFK Conspiracy will have a way to tell if I know what Im saying. Here is a good reading list Mark Lane - Plausible Denial Richard? Grodin - High Treason Walt Brown - Teachery in Dallas Dick Thomas - The Man Who Knew Too Much (last book is rich with striking data but seems impossible to find a copy - the one i read my friend found at a garage sale in Ohio, a hardbound, about 800 pages 200 of which are footnotes) Two GREAT novels also have inside info on the JFK Assassination Norman Mailer - Harlot's Ghost James McElroy? - American Tabloid Opium Lords is a new account of the JFK conspiracy that seems to make a lot of sense; the author picked up the research of New Orleans DA Jim Garrison on the Permindex connection. A lot of what I read here was new to me still it dovetailed with the mental outline I have of the case after my study and reading that a British agent in Montreal was involved in the coup'd'etat. The author makes a strong case and I happily I do herewith swear and certify that I do NOT know the author or any of the author's family or friends; I am a veteran JFK Conspiracy student who is blown away by this trenchant analysis and wish to recommend it highly. Opium Lords Synopsis After President John F. Kennedy was killed in 1963, America became deeply involved in the Vietnam War. Within a few short years, heroin addiction in America reached epidemic proportions. In the background, Israel expanded its borders by force and became a colonial empire ruling a nation of hostile Palestinian subjects. This book reveals how Israel exploited the Western powers' long history of opium trafficking as a means of toppling the young American president. The following points summarize the information presented: Opium was the glue that held together the rivaling factions that conspired to kill JFK. The main factions in the conspiracy were Zionist instigators, the American Mafia (headed by Jewish mobster Meyer Lansky and his lieutenant, Santo Trafficante), French-Corsican crime syndicates in Marseilles, France and Southeast Asia, and the US military. Heroin smuggling was first introduced in the United States in the 1920s by Jewish gangsters such as Meyer Lansky, "Legs" Diamond, and "Dutch" Schultz. One of the reasons President Johnson escalated US involvement in Southeast Asia was because the American Mafia and French-Corsican heroin traffickers needed a new source of opium for their heroin factories. Turkey had been the main source, but its government was about to eradicate opium production. Joseph Kennedy, Sr's three sons were viewed as a new American dynasty that threatened Israel's plans to expand its borders. The Kennedy Dynasty would last until 1985 if each son served two terms in the White House. It is widely known that Joseph Kennedy Sr developed a strong loathing of Jews from his business dealings with them in finance, Hollywood, and politics. A decree was issued to kill JFK by Nahum Goldmann, founder of the World Jewish Congress and its president in 1963. Louis Bloomfield of Montreal was assigned to set up the coup d'état. He was an influential international lawyer with an extensive espionage background (e.g., British intelligence, Haganah, OSS, CIA). Martin Agronsky and other Jewish journalists and media moguls collaborated in the plot by pushing a false cover story that Lee Harvey Oswald alone killed JFK. Right-wing extremists joined the coup initially but broke ranks and declared a holy war against Jews immediately after JFK was killed. The assassins were the lieutenants of French-Corsican heroin trafficker and convicted Nazi collaborator, Auguste Joseph Ricord. He was living in Argentina at the time of the assassination. Later he moved to Paraguay which became a major hub for smuggling heroin into the United States. The assassins were Lucien Sarti, François Chiappe, and Jean-Paul Angeletti—all French-Corsicans. Nixon was driven from office because he destroyed Ricord's heroin cartel, established détente with the Soviet Union, withdrew forces from Vietnam, and ended the draft. Under Nixon's orders, police in Mexico City tried to arrest Lucien Sarti—the man who fatally shot JFK in the head. When Sarti fled, Mexican police opened fire. He died in a hail of bullets on April 27, 1972. JFK made enemies within the military establishment and Israel when he attempted to establish détente with the Soviet Union in the summer of 1963. He also wanted to prevent Israel from acquiring the Bomb.

On hand for the signing of the bills in the Oval Office as well as the discussion of the new trade pacts from the White House Rose Garden, Society of the Plastics Industry's (SPI) Bill Carteaux and Jon Kurrle joined President Barack Obama in praising newly enacted trade deals with South Korea, Panama, and Colombia. Carteaux, SPI's president, and Kurrle, its senior VP for government and industry affairs, joined other business leaders to witness the signing of the bills that will remove trade barriers to the potential benefit of multiple industries, including plastics.
"I am honored to be invited to the White House to celebrate these trade agreements because SPI's advocacy team, aided by our dedicated members, worked countless hours and made, literally, hundreds of Capitol Hill visits in support of these agreements," Carteaux said. Noting a sense of pride and accomplishment, Carteaux added that SPI's advocacy on behalf of the trade measures ensured that the plastics industry's collective voice was heard.
"SPI has long supported these pro-growth measures," Carteaux said. "They create a more level playing field for the U.S. plastics industry and increase our competitiveness in these three countries." Carteaux noted that the president's comments on the new trade deals from the Rose Garden included specific references to the plastics industry....

text: M&Y 6th Annual Spey Day Here it is again, the day you don't want to miss, it's also a day that we don't want to miss, as this has become our customer appreciation day and it's grown into a great fly fishing get-together in the lower mainland. Many non-spey casters and curious fly fishers come out to enjoy the camaraderie and witness some awe inspiring casting. Date – Saturday April 9th, 2011 Time: 9:30 AM – 5:00 PM Location: Peg Leg Bar, Fraser River, Chilliwack. (How to get there instructions are posted on our website at www.myflyshop.com ) Cost – Free, just lot's of smiles. This is the perfect day to watch some world class demos, chat with the product manufacturers, receive great casting pointers from the so many rock stars hangin around and willing to pass on their expertise, and to just hang out with your pals. This event is also that once a year opportunity where you can pretty much try out any big name rod with just about any big name line – It's also a great opportunity to try bring along your existing rods and experiment with some new lines and new casting techniques - you'd be surprised just how easy many of these new lines cast. Many of the demos will discuss and utilize single hand rods as well, so even if you don't see a spey rod in your future, there will be plenty to learn for all! Ryan will be demonstrating a switch rod – a rod that is switched between spey and single hand casting – truly a deadly weapon. It's amazing how the principals and fundamentals are so similar when comparing and understanding single hand and double hand casting. This event is designed for everyone from the curious who are thinking of taking up spey casting to the rock stars who want to try out the latest in spey tackle. Bring along your waders and try out anything you fancy. This year, there will once again be an awesome raffle, but with a different twist as noted below. We will once again be serving complimentary burgers, dogs, sody pops and hot beverages for lunch – and you all get to watch Dave and Ryan flip burgers for a few hours!! This year's signature guest will be Simon Gawesworth, a treat that is long overdue and we feel grateful and privileged to have our event graced by Simon's presence. A special thanks to Simon and his sponsoring company Farbank Enterprises, the parent company for Sage, Rio and Reddington. Special thanks as well to Peter Morrison, The Farbank BC Rep who pulled all the strings and helped bring up Simon for this event. Also coming from the US will be Nextcast Pro staff member Brian Styskal where Brian and his counterpart, Greg Bencivenga, will be conducting an awesome demo – these guys are also a must see as they are world class casters! And not to be outdone, Whitney Gould will also be part of the US invasion where she and our beloved Adrienne will also conduct a clever Demo. And of Course, there will also be the usual contingency of M&Y talent to round off the demonstrations. A brief itinerary is as follows – see our website for a more detailed description: 9:45 AM: Dave O'Brien – Introduction and Outline 10:00 AM: Aaron Goodis – The Power of the Underhand 11:00 AM: Simon Gawesworth – Tips and Faults 12:00 PM: Ryan Heitz – Switch Casting 12:30 PM: Complimentary BBQ 1:30 PM: Brian Styskal & Greg Bencivenga – Short Heads, Mid Heads and Long Heads 2:45 PM: Adrienne Comeau & Whitney Gould – Spey casting: A Fishing Prospective 3:45 PM: Tim Arsenault – Locks & Blocks 4:15 PM: Wrap Up and Steelhead Society Raffle This is a non-partisan event, and everyone is welcome to attend. People from other shops, industry people, come out and enjoy the festivities. There will be product representation from the likes of Scott, Sage, Loomis, Winston, Burkeheimer, Nextcast, Echo, Guideline, Rio, Airflo and Scientific Anglers, plus others who want to show their wares. This year, we have so many great prizes that we decided to change the format of our raffle. Many of our generous sponsors and raffle prize donators had suggested that we charge for raffle tickets and donate all the proceeds to a good cause and we thought that this was a great idea. Correspondingly – we have chosen the BC Steelhead Society as this year's choice for a good cause – so to this end we have revised the raffle draw as follows: M&Y Spey Day Raffle Tickets Cost $5.00 each – All proceeds go to the BC Steelhead Society. Rules: You can buy as many tickets as you like – but you can only win one of the major prizes. So, if you have already won a major prize and should your name be drawn a 2nd or 3rd time you will still receive a 2nd or 3rd cool prize, but just not another major prize as listed below. Major Prizes Hatch reel Loomis Versa Spey rod Islander Fly Reel Abel #2 pliers Echo Solo Rod ½ days Guided Instruction with Francois Blanchet A ride in an Airplane?? Remember Last year! Plus a few other major prizes to be announced….. There will be all kinds of T-shirts, fly lines and other Knick Knacks as prizes as well. I hope that everyone buys multiple tickets to help raise money for a good cause and to help with the odds for some of these incredible prizes. Also – unlike past year's raffles, you don't have to be present at the end of the day to be eligible to win any of the raffle prizes – just leave your contact info on your raffle ticket stub and should your ticket be drawn, we will contact you and hold your loot for you at either of our locations for pick-up. There you have – I hope to see all of you at the Spey Day on April 9th. Dave O'Brien Michael & Young Fly Shop

| Loki's Derp Face chapter 1 . 10/9/2013
This is fantastic. Even though it's not my favorite of Shymalan's, I love this movie, despite what the critics say. And Noah is my favorite character (I thought Adrian Brody did an excellent job).
| Lady-Sailor-75 chapter 1 . 1/7/2013
He stabbed Lucius because he knew Ivy loved Lucius romantically and only loved Noah as a friend.

odd but the end is cool
| Silke Magnus chapter 1 . 8/30/2010
This is very amusing to the point where I'm laughing. xDD; The part that got to me the most was:
"The porcupines are out,
And I want to join them,
So I start to shout.
But you hide me in a cellar,
And it's dark and cold."
I really enjoyed reading this. :D
| How I Operate chapter 1 . 5/24/2010
That was quite amusing.

I loved that movie! Even though this guy I'm in love with was like, inches from my head and I barely remember what it was about...I still love this!
| Guggi chapter 1 . 11/11/2009
;D That was funny, and the rhymes are brilliant.
They fit in so well with the movie...

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU'VE WATCHED THIS! Haha I thought I was the only one! I LOvve Village fics! They're AWESOME! :D :D :D :D Funny, this one. There's not a lot of Noah fanfics - even less so with poetry. 'The porcupines are out' EH? Didn't get that. I liked the way he saw Ivy as 'brighter than the sun' and the bad colour reference. But some bits are confusing... like 'I've never liked Jazz' and 'My home is a cupboard' err... what? Anywho - quite funny :)
| o NoahBelongsWithIvy o chapter 1 . 11/9/2009
'I kill lots of people, because I'm a spazz'? That's kinda mean about Noah. Great poem... but I don't think he's a spazz per se... well, okay, I see your point with the clapping... awwee, I still love Noah (or Noah-kinns as I like to call him!) though XD He should have been with Ivy!I hated Luciuous! I WANTED him to stab him! Lolz xo
o: NoahBelongsWithIvy :o - so true!

'The Studio produces singers and performers who really know how to entertain an audience'
Ingrid Surgenor, a senior coach at the NOS for many years, organised a concert in early July in the beautiful venue of Rhosygilwen near Cardigan in Wales.. Five NOS singers, Sioned Gwen Davies, Trystan Griffiths, Adam Gilbert and Mat Durkan (all 2014-2015) and Celine Forrest (joining in 2015-2016) sang scenes from Cosi Fan Tutte, against a beautiful garden backdrop. With the men starting in Welsh rugby kit and 'disguising' themselves with English shirts, they brought the house down. The artists received standing ovations on both evenings.

Seven years ago today, on October 23, 2006, Splendido first opened its doors. As the first true continuing care retirement community (CCRC) in Tucson, it filled a need then—and continues to fill many different needs in the area, with the help of the more than 400 community-minded staff and residents who work and live at Splendido.
Splendido's mission is to enhance the lives of older adults by creating Ways to Age Well(SM)—which includes everything from a 10,000-square-foot fitness center and spa to multiple restaurants that serve up diverse cuisines and dining styles. But part of aging well is giving to others, and Splendido staff and residents have taken it upon themselves to contribute to the community in many ways.
Seven Years of Good Causes
Splendido residents—all age 55 or better—have taken it upon themselves to find ways to help local organizations and individuals. For example, they have organized multiple donation drives for Tucson's VA Hospital, collecting thousands of household items and personal care items to help veterans. Residents also wrote nearly 300 personal letters to wounded soldiers in that hospital. Their efforts were so successful that they turned to gathering donations for the Primavera Foundation of Tucson. They put out the word within Splendido that they needed essential items for homeless families, and have collected thousands of personal care items for this nonprofit organization.
Others have participated in the popular Gestures of Joy program. This group of approximately 20 residents puts on 25 free performances a year, entertaining at hospitals, churches, nursing homes, and schools. The group puts on a seated show that combines music, sign language, and a little dancing and air guitar. "While we have had standing ovations for Gestures of Joy, we feel like we get back more than we give," says Jan Rogers, a founding member of the group. "We give our time and energy, and it is mentally and physically stimulating; but more than that, we have formed a bond of friendship."
The residents at Splendido who so generously donate their time and talent are invested in helping others in Oro Valley and beyond. In fact, they have inspired the staff and leadership at Splendido to help out neighbors in Oro Valley. "Some of our biggest assets are our beautiful location, exceptional amenity areas, and well-trained staff, so we try to share those by inviting various community groups to hold their meetings or events here," says Splendido's Experience Director Tom Rios. "We regularly lend out space and staff to special events such as the Oro Valley Community Foundation award's breakfast and a reunion of Pi Phi sorority sisters from the University of Arizona. And we'll soon be hosting Tohono Chul's annual volunteer brunch."
Splendido also finds unique ways to support good causes in the area. Earlier this year, Splendido chefs cooked 15 gallons of chicken tortilla soup, which was donated to the annual Empty Bowls fundraiser for the Interfaith Community Services (ICS) Food Bank. And this December, Splendido will partner with ICS again to help with their annual golf tournament.
In just seven years, Splendido has become an integral part of Oro Valley and the surrounding area. With the generosity and enthusiasm of the residents, a similar spirit among Splendido staff and leadership, this CCRC will be filling local needs and making the area a better place for many years to come.
Splendido is a joint venture of Mather LifeWays, a non-denominational, not-for-profit organization headquartered in Evanston, Ill., that creates Ways to Age Well(SM) for older adults, and the Plaza Companies, an Arizona-based leader in senior living communities and health care facilities. To learn more about Splendido, call 878-2612 or visit www.splendidotucson.com.

"The MA in Ethics (Corporate Responsibility) was particularly relevant and beneficial to my roles in compliance, regulation and ethics policy development. The range of modules allowed me to focus on specific professional areas and to select other areas of personal interest. The two year programme was very interesting and lecturers were experienced and supportive which I found to be essential having returned to third level education after a number of years. Lectures incorporated an excellent balance of academic instruction, presentations and group discussions helping each of us to build knowledge and expertise not only from lecturers, but from students from a range of professions and backgrounds. This helped us to develop skills and confidence in recognising and addressing ethical dilemmas and the achievement of practical solutions. It also enhanced our professional and personal knowledge of ethics and governance legislation and best practice."

In China, over 300 million migrants reside in cities; these communities represent some of the most marginalized and poorest groups that are now actively incorporating new communication tools into their lives. These migrants are also the fastest adopters of digital tools and the quickest growing population of digital users. What do these coinciding cultural-technical processes mean for the people undergoing these shifts? Based on my fieldwork in China over the past three years, I focus on three areas that I think will point to the future of social change and innovation in China: gaming, entertainment, and consumption.

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
Always adhering to the MDX best practices could be a difficult quest to follow. While there is plenty of information out there, it is scattered across book, whitepapers, blogs, BOL, forum posts etc. And this information could be difficult to digest, and sometimes not clear how to apply in the specific scenarios. On top of that, not all the information out there is reliable. Some of it is outdated, and what used to help in one version of AS, could be bad practice in newer version. All this makes practitioner's life very difficult. But it doesn't have to be this way. For long time, I wanted to automate many of the checks for MDX best practices, and today I am happy to announce that this functionality is now part of MDX Studio. Starting with version 0.4.0, MDX Studio features the "Analyze" button. It goes through the MDX, analyzes it, and flags issues. To illustrate this better, let's consider the following example:
Measures.WorkingDays AS
, [Date].[Day of Week].CurrentMember.Name <> "1"
Measures.SalesPerWorkingDay AS
[Measures].[WorkingDays] IS NULL OR [Measures].[WorkingDays] = 0
,[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]/[Measures].[WorkingDays])
SELECT [Measures].[SalesPerWorkingDay] ON 0
, [Date].[Calendar].[Month].MEMBERS ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
In this example we are looking at sales per working day, where working day is defined as anything but Sunday. Let's run Analyzer over this query and see what it will find out:
It is easier to navigate through the messages in the desktop edition of MDX Studio, where clicking on the message highlights the relevant portion of the MDX. Also there messages can be sorted, hidden (on right-click context menu) or copy/pasted to Excel. Messages are followed by the link to more information how the particular rule can be applied.
The warning above are relatively simple, but MDX Studio Analyzer is capable of doing more sophisticated checks. Example of such check is detection of common subexpressions. For the following query
Measures.SalesPerWorkingDay AS
, [Date].[Day of Week].CurrentMember.Name <> "1"
) = 0
,[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
, [Date].[Day of Week].CurrentMember.Name <> "1"
SELECT [Measures].[SalesPerWorkingDay] ON 0
, [Date].[Calendar].[Month].MEMBERS ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
MDX Studio Analyzer will report that the exactly same Count(Filter(…)) expression was used twice:
The difficult choice that I faced was – for which version of Analysis Services to tailor the messages – AS2005 or AS2008. While some of the advices would stay the same, many others are different, and in some cases are contradictory. For example, in AS2005, CASE operator was never optimized, so at certain scenarios it was better to use nested IIFs, but in AS2008, CASE is as optimized as IIF, so it is preferable to nested IIFs. Another example is NON_EMPTY_BEHAVIOR property, which often times is essential to get good performance in AS2005, but usually is not needed in AS2008, and is better to be removed. With AS2005 everybody recommends replacing IIFs with SCOPE whenever possible, but it is not needed with AS2008 etc. At the end I decided to go with AS2008 only – it just feels as a better investment for the future. AS2008 should be released almost any day now, and I expect much faster migration to it from AS2005, then what we saw with migration from AS2000 to AS2005. The reason is simple – migration to AS2008 from AS2005 is very smooth – all the fundamental concepts stay the same, both client and management object models stay code compatible etc.
One last thing to mention: Best practices are exactly what they are – best practices. It means, that most of the time using them you will be better off. However, they are absolute rules to be followed always. Sometimes there are exceptions from the rules. AS is a complex, feature-rich product, and MDX engine is probably the most sophisticated piece in it. Sometimes features interact in such a way, that some best practices might result in worse results. For example, one of the advices that MDX Studio will give is when it sees Filter(CrossJoin(…)), it will recommend using CrossJoin(Filter(…)) instead. It is common sense to reduce the size of the set before crossjoin'ing. But not only this is not always possible, but also there are rare cases where it would result in worse performance. So while you are encouraged to follow the best practices, always use them as a guide, and measure before and after applying the rules to make sure things do improve.

"Furthermore," the authors write, 1-year outcomes "exceeded those previously reported in the literature, approaching the function of age-matched healthy older adults."
Dr. Lynn Snyder-Mackler at the University of Delaware, Newark, and co-investigators randomized 200 patients with osteoarthrisis to a volitional strength training group, or to exercise plus neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES). NMES consisted of 10 electrically elicited contractions inducted in the quadriceps femoris muscle. Both groups also performed exercises targeting the hamstrings, gastrocnemius, soleus, hip abductors, and hip flexors.
Treatment began 3-4 weeks after surgery and lasted for 6 weeks with 2 or 3 visits per week. Ninety-two patients in the exercise group and 76 in the exercise-NMES group completed the 3-month testing, and 81 and 68, respectively, were retested at 12 months. A subgroup of 41 patients was also compared with a control group of 41 patients.
Both rehabilitation groups significantly improved between baseline and 3 months, and between 3 and 12 months on all measures – active knee range of motion, Timed Up and Go, Stair-Climbing Test, 6-Minute Walk, and quadriceps strength and activation testing, and in responses to self-assessment questionnaires (p < 0.001 for all).
However, outcomes did not differ between the exercise-only group and the exercise-NMES group, Dr. Snyder-Mackler and associates report.
In the subgroup analysis, they add, patients in the active intervention groups "demonstrated substantially greater quadriceps strength and functional performance 12 months postoperatively than the standard of care group."

Robyn Busfield's first book, "It's Time to get Selfish," published in 2006, was geared toward a better understanding of listening to the Gentle Wise Voice within. Robyn's journey began in 96 when she realized there was a Great Wisdom within that held Knowledge beyond her previous known capabilities. When she tapped into this Pure Wisdom she discovered the importance of "divine selfishness" and what it means to be loyal enough to follow this Inner Voice every step of the way in life.
The "selfish" concept leans toward the understanding that "giving to self" also benefits those around us; in giving to self and providing self with happiness and love, we feel fulfilled, and therefore, have happiness and love to share all around.
When you think a loving thought, you have been caressed by the touch of God.

BOSTON (AP)- Prosecutors are beginning the process of figuring out how to deal with thousands of drug cases handled by a chemist who is accused of mishandling drug samples and tainting evidence.
State police shut down the lab late last month after discovering that a chemist had failed to follow testing protocols and may have purposely mishandled evidence. Officials have produced massive lists of the chemist's cases covering 34,000 defendants and more than 60,000 drug samples.
Prosecutors are now contacting attorneys for defendants in cases where Annie Dookhan was the primary chemist, starting with people who are already serving prison terms.
Attorney Rosemary Scapicchio said an assistant district attorney from Norfolk County told her Friday that prosecutors plan to bring her client, a man serving a 10-year sentence for cocaine trafficking, into court next week for a hearing that could lead to his release on bail.
Scapicchio said she was told that prosecutors will agree to release some defendants on bail or put their sentences on hold pending a motion for a new trial while they figure out the extent of Dookhan's actions in individual cases.
"I applaud them for doing this," Scapicchio said. "The right thing to do is to get them out (of prison) as quickly as you can, and then we can fight about what ultimately happens to the case."
"They are recognizing it as a significant problem and a serious violation of constitutional rights," she said.
David Traub, a spokesman for Norfolk District Attorney Michael Morrissey, said prosecutors have aggressively sought out defense attorneys in cases in which Dookhan was the chemist.
"At that point, it's up to them to pursue their clients' interests," Traub said.
"We're telling them we are going to look at it on a case-by-case basis, and in certain cases, we are going to assent to bail."
Gov. Deval Patrick said Friday a team of state officials and prosecutors had begun an attempt to match the names associated with each of the drug samples tested by Dookhan with criminal prosecutions. He said officials would be "triaging" the list to determine which individuals may be serving prison sentences based on the tainted tests.
When asked if the process may result in the release of some inmates, Patrick responded: "I don't know the answer to that. I can tell you whatever it takes to see that justice is done is what everyone is committed to."

Day Trip.
Just a 30 minute trip north of Hervey Bay you will find the sleepy fishing town of Burrum Heads, the Burrum River is a boaties paradise, with wide clear waters, fishermen galore and a lot of Holiday homes and. A large caravan park, full of those ready to laze around and catch a fish for dinner. There is a pathway along the rivers edge, a few small shops and you,ve seen Burris Heads.
You can just imagine the same families coming here Year after year for their annual holiday in the caravan.
Lunch was not an option as I hadn't packed a picnic, which we could have eaten at the park beside the river. So off we headed to find the Ankara Tea Gardens.
Arkarra is a wetland area with a lovely tea shop and very nice food, you can even grab a beer or wine if you are in the mood, the selection for lunch was very good, healthy and the setting was really lovely, each table was under a Bali Hut roof, and you were far enough away from other guests that you felt you had the serenity all to yourself.
Sitting there in the nice cooling breeze with the smell of fresh wood chips wa slime being in a wellness spa.
After a leisurely lunch you walked through the wetlands, were we saw ducks and lots of little turtles.
They are used to people and as soon as they hear/ see you at the rotunda they pop their little heads up for you to feed them.
Sorry guys we didn't have anything to feed you with!
Unfortunately it has been very dry here so there was very little water , only one area were the fountain, ducks and turtle she are has any real amount of water.
Can imagine in the wet season it would be very pretty walking along the pathways.

Nicole Kidman and Colin Firth star as husband and wife in 'Before I go to sleep' – a thriller based on SJ Watson's best-seller of the same name.
Psychological thriller reunites Kidman and Firth
Psychological thriller reunites Kidman and Firth
The film tells the story of Christine, who, following a brutal accident, wakes up each day having forgotten everything. She spends each day trying to piece back together her life, memories and the people in it.
"I drew a graph of the emotional arc that Christine goes over, just for my own clarification, and it's extraordinary. I mean, I did a sort of timeline and I did intensity and there are so many hugely significant and traumatic experiences that she goes through. And I did a positive and negative, she also experiences intense joy. So I certainly needed an actor who I could trust to be able to take me to emotional extremes in a way that I would believe completely," said the movie's screenwriter and director Rowan Joffe about choosing Nicole Kidman for the role of Christine.
The movie reunites Firth and Kidman, who played an on-screen couple in last year's war drama, 'The Railway Man'. They are also scheduled to work together on a third movie, 'Genius', due out next year.
"I love working with him (Firth) because he's just very… he's just such a fine actor and it helps when you're working with somebody who's so talented. And he kind of gets, rhythmically, I think he gets me. He can make me laugh and he's "no frills", he doesn't come in with any airs and graces, he's just very easy," said Kidman of her co-star.
British actor Mark Strong completes the menage à trois in his role as neurosurgeon Dr Nash, who starts sewing the seeds of doubt in Christine's mind about what exactly happened to her.
The movie has opened to mixed reviews. While critics have generally praised the three main actors' performances, one described it as "a dull ping-pong of red herrings" and another as "a clinical thriller".
'Before I Go to Sleep' is on global release from now.

Flurid is a cross-browser fluid width grid system optimized for flexibility (fluidity) and one of the only fluid width grid systems to work in Internet Explorer versions 5.0 and newer* without hiding pixels in margins. Like any grid system, the basic purpose is to break the page into a series of rows and columns, giving the designer an easy, rational way to organize and present content to the user.
Why Fluid?
Fluidity, as far as I am concerned, is one of the cornerstones in making web design more accessible, user friendly, customizable and, perhaps most importantly, adaptable. Fluid designs allow the content of a page to adjust according to the dimensions of their containing window, which makes it easy to scale up or down, depending upon the needs of the user or the type of web device being used.
So why aren't there more fluid grid systems out there that don't hide pixels in margins? Well, that is due to how different browsers and web devices handle sub-pixel rounding. Flurid deals with the sub-pixel rounding issue by truncating extra pixels from the last column in a row that would normally cause a layout to break (in Internet Explorer). Of course, the problem of sub-pixel rounding in CSS still remains and you may notice that columns will not line up pixel-perfectly in some browsers, but these differences are usually not perceivable by the eye and you are guaranteed that your layout will never break.

Risotto, one of cooking's greatest gifts to comfort food. For some reason, people have it in their head that making risotto is somehow difficult. Maybe it is watching too many episodes of Hell's Kitchen, witnessing the torture each chef goes to to produce the finest in creamy, grainy goodness. Well, let's shake that notion out of our pretty little heads shall we? Risotto is no more difficult than making Kraft Dinner. A little boiling, a little stirring, a chop here or there and you have a fine, creamy bowl of healthy yet decadent grains. It's even got all the food groups! You've got dairy, grains, vegetables, fats and small amounts of protein! Hooray! You can spare the thanks for another day, this is just my gift to you today (hey that rhymed).
So why use barley? Good question. Though I could only find miscellaneous "barley" (although it was not white, so it may have been hulled) in our grocer's bulk section, if you can get it, buy the hulled variety. You may need to increase the cooking time by 15-30 minutes, but the health benefits of using a whole grain far outweigh the inconvenience of cooking it a bit longer, if you can dig it. Pearl barley (the most commonly found variety) is quick cooking, and so a sort of convenience food, not unlike white rice. It is stripped of it's natural bran and tough outer layers, also the healthiest bits, whereas whole grain barley is just that, whole grain. It is far superior in nutrition, and I imagine, taste (I'm still looking for it in my grocery).
Barley risotto does differ slightly from traditional arborio rice risottos in that it has a bit more texture. You may find yourself chewing your food slightly more thoroughly, as barley holds it's texture through cooking. Arborio rice lends itself to adding a delicious creaminess to risotto without the addition of cream. Feel free to use arborio rice in this recipe too, it will turn out quite good.
Oh, and don't spare the butter and cheese….
Barley Risotto with Peas
3/4 cup pearl or other quick cooking barley
3 cups chicken or vegetable stock
2-3 cups water
1 clove garlic, minced
1 medium sweet onion, diced
1 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp fresh rosemary, minced very fine
salt & pepper
1 cup frozen spring peas (or fresh if they are in season!)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1-2 tbsp butter
2 oz soft goat's cheese
1. Warm stock and water to simmering in small saucepan, turn off heat, cover and keep warm.
2. In large, heavy bottomed saucepan, heat butter. When melted, add onions and cook until softened.
3. Add in garlic and sauté 1-2 minutes.
4. Pour in barley and cook 4-6 minutes, just to allow grains to toast slightly.
5. Stir in rosemary and 1 cup of stock.
6. After first ladle of stock has been absorbed, continue to add 1 cup at a time, allowing it to become absorbed before adding more. Stir each time, but you do not have to continuously stir. This process should take about 30-45 minutes.
7. Add peas near end of cooking time, stirring thoroughly to allow peas to warm.
8. Add in butter and Parmesan just before removing from heat.
9. To serve, heap in bowls or on plates and top with crumbled goat's cheese.

It is as follows: Republicans continue to underperform against a weak president, while the president insists on making himself weaker. (More here.) I don't know who in the Obama administration had the bright idea of angering the Catholic church in advance of the elections, but it would be shocking if that person has not lost his/her job by now. To be sure, there are no monolithic voting groups in America, and many Catholics may pay no mind to this development. But every vote is going to count in this very close election, so it is hard to understand why Team Obama decided to leave potentially millions of votes on the table for Republicans to pick up.
Oh, I am sure that it is the Republicans' turn to make a dumb mistake. But it truly is amazing to behold all of the things Team Obama is doing to make the president's political life so difficult, and it is especially amazing to consider the possibility that the president himself may have been behind this dramatic political miscalculation. Mitt Romney must thank his lucky stars every day for some of Barack Obama's personnel choices, and the way those personnel choices have done their jobs. They might help bring about a Republican victory.

By Elizabeth Anne Hull
Blogger/writer Rudy Rucker called Dave Eggers' The Circle "a page-turner," explaining, "I plowed through it in two days, thinking a lot about the characters and the ideas, and when it was done, I missed having it to read." When I read the novel last spring, my reaction my reaction was almost exactly the same, although my feelings were more complex. Other critics have called it a dystopian novel. It centers on a company called the Circle, a Twitter / Google / Amazon /Microsoft / Apple / Facebook / LinkedIn / YouTube mash-up, a company hell-bent on making us all one people, like it or not.
The protagonist, Mae Holland, lands her dream job at a relatively new and small but potentially powerful Southern California tech company and becomes an expert at her job of finding out what other people want and giving 100-percent satisfaction to them. Her transformation over the space of more than 400 pages is compelling.
Pleasing customers is only the beginning of what she must learn; she also must become a transparent member of the company and give up any other competing interests or obligations, including family, friendships, and even romantic entanglements. Sounds like a cult? She is, in fact, transformed into Everywoman for the 21st century. I don't know whether you'll find her sympathetic or not, but her journey is fascinating to watch and her decision at the end is thought-provoking..
The Circle raises questions about keeping up with the latest in technology as well as the issues of privacy, vulnerability, transparency, being in control of one's destiny, our social and moral responsibility to others, and the blessing/curse of the permanence of the Cloud, and facing the consequences of decisions we make all too innocently, all of which are now in the news. These are all women's issues, but they are more than that: they are human concerns.

Tim Tebow still isn't technically a New York Jet
So far in New York, Tim Tebow has been involved in an incomplete pass and a delay of game, and the season doesn't start for almost six more months.
The beloved, if not technically proficient quarterback, still isn't an official member of the New York Jets despite the stutter-step Wednesday trade that sent him to Broadway for a fourth-round pick. Because of the salary advance issue that almost sent him elsewhere, Tebow had to sign a new, restructured contract with the Denver Broncos before the trade was consummated. ESPN reported the news.
[Related Joe Namath blasts New York Jets for Tim Tebow trade]
Tebow has to stay a Bronco for 24 more hours and then can be traded to the Jets, which he will be this weekend. On Monday, finally, he will be announced as the team's new "backup" quarterback. "Backup" should remain in quotes until Mark Sanchez makes it through a game without fans chanting "TEEEEEBOW!" Until then, Tebow may be No. 2 of the depth chart, but he'll be No. 1 on the minds of disgruntled Jets fans.
The team has publicly stated its plans to feature Tebow in a wildcat role in the team's offense. This despite the fact that multiple-QB systems have historically been about as effective as electric cars. Throw in a sensationalized New York media market that certainly will avoid harping on every little difference between Sanchez and Tebow and won't try to gin up controversy through back-page headlines, and this has a "John Carter" type of vibe to it.
It's all moot until Monday, though. For now, Tim Tebow remains the Denver Broncos' headache.
