Rex D. Johnson, President and CEO, Hawaii Tourism Authority
Amid concerns about the shutdowns of Aloha Airlines and ATA, rising fuel costs and would-be travelers feeling the pinch of a nationwide economic slowdown, we checked in with Hawaii Tourism Authority president and CEO Rex Johnson for his thoughts on the state's visitor industry outlook.
Photo by Olivier Koning
Q: How do you expect the closures of Aloha and ATA, and possible airline mergers down the road, to affect Hawaii's visitor industry?
A: Let's start with ATA and Aloha. [That's] a huge effect — over a million seats out of this market. In general, that will bring us back to about 2004 levels in terms of air seats available … There will be some short-term fill-in from some of those locations that were affected by the closures [such as Hawaiian going into the Oakland market] but certainly not anything near what the loss of air seats has been.
In general, the airline industry has been going through the most tumultuous time since after World War II. We really don't know what the effects are going to be of consolidation, nor do we know if they are ever going to get to that consolidation point. … You could end up with three major airlines a couple of years down the road, and you can't imagine that that would be good, not only for Hawaii, but for travel in general … [The airlines] will now be in a position where they will no longer argue over market share. They will have to argue over yield. They cannot any longer afford to sell their product for less than it cost them to produce it … The bottom line is air travel — or travel to your grocery store — is going to get more expensive.
Q: What does that mean for the kind of travelers who will come to Hawaii?
A: I think that with the cost of travel going up, that there will be more affluent travelers going to every destination. And those who cannot afford it — we're not just talking about Hawaii, we're talking about anyplace — will stay home.
Q: How will rising airfares affect hotels?
A: I don't think we know at this time. People are going to look at the overall price of a package and it doesn't matter which hunk of it is taking up a lot of it. You're still going to find some place at the top end of it where there will be price resistance. Fortunately, Hawaii has the reputation of being, if not the, then one of the premiere leisure destinations on the globe. We've been marketing for 50 years to try to achieve that. So as long as demand remains strong, we will hopefully be able to compete. But what it means is having demand remain strong.
Q: How is that done?
A: You have to continue to improve, reinvent and reinvigorate the overall product. And that's what will keep you, as a destination, a place in demand.
Q: Given the rising cost of travel, is there anything the visitor industry can do to make Hawaii more attractive as a destination?
A: Right now there is room availability; there is air seat availability. A couple of years ago there was no room availability … So some of the hotels are offering value-added programs [like] an extra day for free – not only here, but you're seeing it all over … You have gone from the inability of the wholesalers to block rooms back in '06 to operating at lesser occupancy levels so there are going to be rooms available.
Q: Is the weak dollar a bright spot amid the problems with airlines, high fuel prices and a weak national economy?
A: It's a double-edged sword. But the dollar being weak should help in the importation of tourists, or visitors, from the remainder of the world. Not just Japan, but Europe and Canada and so on. Now, the bad side is you can't buy anything with it, because if I go to market in Japan … your buying power is down.
Q: Are there any hopes and fears about the airline turmoil?
A: We're just hopeful that as an industry [the airline industry] is able to survive in something like the form we know it in today. And I think that's not just a Hawaii thing. That's America … What you want is stability, in any industry, but particularly in the airline industry.
Q: So the best hope for the situation would be for there to be a quick resolution?
A: These are not simple questions. We'd like to have quick resolutions to what the United States is going to go through as far as the economy, and that will have a lot to do with what happens in the airline industry, which will have a lot to do with the visitor industry overall.
But just like we've been on such a wonderful roll for the last three years, there is a lot of market correction going on right now. And again, that goes all the way from consumer goods to houses to the whole economy.
Q: Whenever there is a boom economy, people make a lot of plans or initiatives they want to get done. How does that list of plans compare to what HTA has been able to get done?
A: I think we made some real progress in the culture side of the equation. We made some real progress during these boom times in the workforce development side of the equation, the natural resources side of the equation, and a lot of those, for lack of a better term, "other than marketing" sides of the equation. I think if you look at it from a budgetary standpoint, we made great progress in a lot of these things.

Today's Front Pages Analysis
Little and little-known Kosovo makes big news everywhere
Kosovo's declaration of independence made Page One of many American dailies today, leaving many to wonder where and what is Kosovo. Well, it's a province in Serbia in the former Yugoslavia, a small area of some two million inhabitants, 90 percent of whom are ethnic Albanians and the rest Serbs. The largely Muslim province is land-locked, poor, and a United Nations protectorate policed by about 16,000 NATO troops. Serbia and Russia say Kosovo cannot break away. But many U.S. newspapers are telling their readers that it happened.
The Arizona Republic in Phoenix squares off "Kosovo claims independence," The Birmingham (Ala.) News says, "Kosovo makes declaration of independence amid protests," the Arkansas Democrat Gazette in Little Rock leads with "Kosovo asserts independence from Serbia," and the Los Angeles Times has a four-column Page One photo and the headline "Kosovo takes a big leap of faith." The Denver Post wisely states that "Free Kosovo faces obstacles as new nation," The Miami Herald leads with "Newest nation sparks political tempest," The Atlanta Journal-Constitution offers a photo and the tease to an inside story "A new nation, more or less." The Lewiston Tribune in Idaho reports "Kosovo says it's now a free state," the Duluth News Tribune in Minnesota plays up "Kosovo declares independence," with a photo, The Providence Journal in Rhode Island leads with "Kosovo severs its ties with Serbia" and the Winston-Salem Journal in North Carolina tells its readers that "Leaders urge restraint after Kosovo's declaration." The Waco Tribune-Herald in Texas reports "Kosovo independence evokes joy, ire."
As might be expected, it's a bigger story in Europe. Die Presse in Vienna, Austria, has a photo and a banner head reporting "Kosovo independence splits the world," noting that the West is in favor while Serbia and Russia are opposed to the separation. It's a story at the top of Page One of Poslovni dnevnik in neighboring Zagreb, Croatia, and in SME in Bratislava, Slovakia, while Der Tagesspiegel in Berlin has a photo and a story reporting that "Belgrade will 'never' recognize Kosovo," and The Daily Telegraph in London says, "Serbs and Russians outraged as Kosovo declares its independence." Check your local newspaper to see what happens next; there will be more.

The City Council directed the staff Tuesday night to draft a Capital Improvement Project to fix the pool in the next fiscal year. Joe Wilson Pool is the only element of a proposed citywide aquatics solution that is wholly controlled by the city.
The city is negotiating with Wild Rivers LLC, a Southern California company, to build a water theme park, potentially at the Ellis development in west Tracy, and it must negotiate with Tracy Unified School District if it wants to change the layout and availability of Pinkie Phillips Pool at West High School.
Tuesday, the council separated Joe Wilson Pool from the rest of the aquatics plan for Tracy — following two hours of discussion and public comment.
"Regardless of what we decide with the larger pool direction," Mayor Brent Ives said, "it seems as though the majority of our thoughts is to do something at Dr. Powers."
Several people questioned whether the city should be in the business of providing public swimming. Others suggested that an aquatics solution should be put to voters, which would also gauge public support.
Several swim use groups and members of the Tracy Tomorrow & Beyond aquatics facility subcommittee, formed by the council in 2005 to survey the community's needs, said the community had already spoken and recommended that the city return to earlier plans for a publicly run aquatics center at the Ellis site.
Acting City Manager Maria Hurtado said her staff would prepare a CIP that would describe the scope of and funding for fixing the pool and add it to the 2014-15 budget to be approved by the council June 3.
Mayoral terms discussed
The City Council engaged in a discussion of changing the term of office for future mayors from two to four years.
Ives, who is the first mayor to have his tenure ended by term limits, first suggested the change during the May 6 regular meeting.
"I'm looking at the overall guidance and governance for the city of Tracy in the future," Ives said. "I just believe that, in terms of what the city is going to be going through in the foreseeable future, a certain amount of consistency, with the ability every four years for the electorate to be able to speak, is an important benefit for the city."
Councilman Robert Rickman provided a counterpoint to the mayor's argument to put the issue on a ballot for the citizens of Tracy to decide.
"We currently serve two terms here on council for a total of eight years and two terms as mayor for four years for a total of 12 years. With this proposed amendment, we would increase that total from 12 to 16 years. This is in direct opposition to of what the voters wanted and approved," Rickman said, referring to the passage of Measure T term limits in the November 2008 election.
The councilman added that there was no concrete case to prove the supposition that the city would be troubled by a lack of long-term consistency in the mayor's office.
"The term limits ordinance has yet to term out anyone. As Mr. Ives said, he will be the first one," Rickman said. "There have been no facts or evidence to support the claim that lack of experience would impair the city in doing its business."
Several members of the public spoke on both sides of the issue, some in support of allowing voters to decide the matter. At the end of the 41-minute public hearing and council discussion, the issue was not moved forward.
The mayor said he did not want the city of Tracy to lose influence or opportunities because of rapid changes in leadership but conceded that without an advocate in the public to lead the campaign, the issue was dead for now.
"If I'm the only ringer of the bell here, it's not likely to be something that would really work," Ives said. "I think we'll find out as a city just how it works soon enough. Maybe after that happens a few times, maybe we'll see that it does merit change."
City, PG&E to replace street lights
Hurtado announced during her report to the council Tuesday that the city and Pacific Gas and Electric Co. would replace 682 streetlights across the city with LED bulbs.
Crews will install lights along five major roadways: Grant Line Road, Tracy Boulevard, Schulte Road, West 11th Street and MacArthur Drive.
Hurtado said the retrofit would save the city 50 percent of its electric and maintenance costs for those lights.

MILTOWN, Wis. (WHBL) - Showing a Facebook photo to two members of the Milton School District staff has cost superintendent Mike Garrow his job. Garrow resigned Friday after the incident had been investigated. The incident happened last June when Garrow was talking to the two. He reportedly brought up a photo on Facebook of a woman which made them uncomfortable and the investigator decided that picture could have been inappropriate. Garrow submitted a written response saying his decision to show the photo was, in his words, "not a great choice," but he didn't believe his conduct called for a full investigation. The superintendent has been on leave since October and his resignation takes effect June 30th. He is also going to receive a 35 thousand dollar severance check.

It'll be six years ago in October that people in Nappanee found themselves in the middle of disaster.
Luckily, no one was killed when the tornado ripped through town, but the effects, still dire.
Victims are reminded of their own tragedy as they see the images from Oklahoma.
"I have goosebumps. Just when you mention it. It's really hard," says Jenni Heeter, who survived the Nappanee tornado.
The Heeter family's home torn apart by Mother Nature. The roof ripped off, windows and debris strewn all around, and vehicles destroyed.
everything was just a mess and I looked up at the stairs and there was nothing up above," says Jenni.The Heeter's had to rebuild their home from the studs up.
They lived in an un-insulated trailer on their property for six months.
Nearly six years later, remnants of the tornado still linger.
"In fact, our younger daughter just found three or four pieces of glass in the walkway. They pop up every now and then. Shingles in the pond, six years later," says Jenni's husband, Mark Heeter.
The Heeters say they're lucky no one was killed, as they remember how Nappanee looked much like a warzone.
Their heart goes out to those in Oklahoma, but they know, they too, will rebuild.
"Tragedy seems to bring out the best in people. It certainly did for us around here. And I have no doubt Oklahoma will be the same way," says Mark.Jenni and Mark say since the tornado, they pay closer attention to the weather, and are always prepared.
The same is true for the city of Nappanee as a whole.
Mayor Larry Thompson says the city has six shelters, and added two more sirens since the tragedy.
"We've tried to make things better, safer. And I think we've done that. We just don't want to ever have to find out again," says Thompson.As the Heeters look back through painful memories, they're all reminded of just how lucky they are.
"We're not comparing this tornado to what Oklahoma has had and even southern Indiana more recently. We thought it was pretty bad then but we've been reminded a number of times that we were the fortunate ones here," says Thompson.

Veterans and you
You come into contact with a lot of people throughout your life. Some you know others you don't. You cannot tell how a stranger is or what their background story might be just by looking at them. There is a large group of people out there that you might be able to tell who they are by there actions though. This group is our veterans. Most of them act different or dress different or you might just get the feeling that they might be one. If you do find out they are or your not sure just ask them. If they say yes tell them thank you. You can't explain how nice it feels to be told thank you when you are a veteran. Today's society kind of forgot about this key group of people. Many have deployed or have spent a lot of time away from their families. They did this for our security. So please make them feel appreciated. Being a veteran myself it feels like people do not care. There is not much help out there for veterans transitioning back to the civilian sector. It can be very depressing and hard for them. So please take the time and show them some appreciation, it can mean the world to them.

11 Funny Comedy Musicians - Rolling Stone
Check out this photo expose of 11 Funny Comedy Musicians in Rolling Stone from April 2011. It's an odd genre, and perhaps that's why they chose an odd number of performers to feature. Most of them are pretty famous, and sadly, not at the festival this year, but we'll get 'em all, eventually, even if we have to knock on each of their agent's doors and shamelessly beg.
What do you think of this list? Does it appeal to what your view of what a comedy musician is? Are these people funny to you? Who is missing from this list? If someone you know isn't on here, give them some love by voting for them here.
And don't forget to get your advance tickets!

Our cabin steward, Rick, did a super job taking care of us.
We liked the lay-out of the ship, nice feel in all the areas,even tho the ship was full did not feel crowded...we found the staff and passengers extremely friendly, did not encounter and grumps!
Our recent experiences have been on QM2 PG dining room so we struggled with the Britannia dining room for dinner. Tho the service was ok the main courses were...tasteless...apps and soups and salads and desserts were good...several times we just had soup and salad. We did enjoy in the Lido, very good fresh made pizza, burgers and great fries, and a good salad selection. Also for breakfast fresh cooked eggs to order.
Entertainment & speaker we are split on. I thought the after dinner shows were great the speakers good except for one who was teaching a class...in a dull voice!
We had loads of laughs in the Pub for games after the show..or dancing every night in the Queens Room. Cunard has the very best ships for ballroom dancers afloat. Large dance floors! Afternoon tea or a classical concert. Cunard does a super job keeping passengers busy. Or a quiet read in the very nice library.
If you enjoy meeting new people than you can't go wrong with a Cunard cruise, we have always found our fellow travelers very interesting and well traveled!
We had 4 formal nights in 14 days...I love it...
All in all the only problem we had was dinner in the Britannia dining room, we are Calif foodies...and we found the dinner hit and miss!
Disembarkation in LA was very smooth. Our time was 8:50am we were at the curb by 9:15am!

Kaua`i Festivals Continue Throughout October
Article by Pam Woolway from http://www.forkauaionline.com/
Photo by Michael Drake
Three weekends of October are dedicated to the final celebrations of the Kaua`i Aloha Festival season that began the end of August. September and October are the traditional time of Makahiki, a time of peace and celebration.
Oct. 9 is the Auli`i Luau that connects with Kaua`i's rich history and culture with an ocean front setting at Sheraton Kauai. Enjoy tributes paid to Kaua'i Aloha Festivals and the Royal Court with a procession and offering of ho'okupu (gifts).
Oct. 18 is Na Lima Hana Day. "Na Lima Hana" translates as "many hands working." There will be cultural and health practitioners offering activities, demonstrations, entertainment and learning experiences, directly following Kaua'i's Royal Court procession and ho'okupu ceremony. Enjoy a "chopped box" food competition too. Located at the Grand Hyatt Kaua'i Resort and Spa.Oct. 19 is Na Mele O Kaumuali'i, a celebration that will show case the legacy of Kaua`i's last ruling monarch, King Kaumuali`i, through original compositions of songs, chants and poems, complemented with ethnic foods provided by West Kaua`i food establishments. Held in the center of Waimea town.
October 20 is Hale Pule at Kupa'a I Loko Konalima Hawaiian Church in Kekaha, where the West Side community honors Kaua'i's Royal Court with pule (prayers) and mele (songs) to wrap up the Kaua'i Aloha Festivals season. The Kupa'a I Loko Konalima Hawaiian Church is part of the United Congregational Church of Christ. Traditional hymns are sung in English and Hawaiian. For more information, visit kauaialohafestivals.net.
Na Lima Hana Festival
Hawaiian Culture Celebration Festival in Poipu at Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa on October 17, 18 and 19 from 9 - 5 at the grand Hyatt Hotel in Poipu.
Learn about Hawaiian cultural practices, participate in workshops and enjoying outstanding entertainment, music, dance and food! Na Lima Hana means many hands working.
This three-day festival, at the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa, presents a host of Hawaiian cultural practitioners offering activities, demonstrations, entertainment and learning experiences. Literally, many hands are working to teach and learn fascinating skills.
Learn all about lei-making, weaving with endemic plants, uses of medicinal plants, salt-making, drum-making, lomilomi (traditional massage), lau hala weaving, kapa (tapa) making, carving, ancient chants, hula kahiko, the uses of kalo (taro) and stone carving. Enjoy Hawaiian food and entertainment too.
Many events are free of charge to the public. As part of the festival the Hawaii Lodging and Tourism Association Kauai Chapter will be hosting a day-long conference, titled, "The Bones of our Ancestors", including a cultural field trip, discussions and demonstrations.

A Mighty Heart (2007)
Watch video:
- John Bussey tells what happened to those responsible for Daniel Pearl's death.
- Steve Stecklow explains what Daniel Pearl was really like.
- Steve Levine discusses the risks to journalists in dangerous areas.
- Steve Stecklow comments on the risks in covering news in foreign lands.
- John Bussey on the challenges facing the journalism industry in tough economic times.
Guests: Steve Stecklow, John Bussey and Steve LeVine
Pearl's Colleagues Discuss His Life, Perils of Journalism
By Lesette R. Heath, special programs coordinator
WASHINGTON — Seven years ago Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and murdered by terrorists in Karachi, Pakistan. The event shocked the world and underscored the dangers that journalists faced in pursuit of a story.
Steve Stecklow, the Journal's deputy bureau chief in Boston and the last person to share a byline with Pearl, said Pearl "was not a guy who really took risks. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time."
Stecklow, John Bussey and Steve LeVine were guests of "," a film series hosted by veteran journalist Nick Clooney. "A Mighty Heart," the seventh film in the series, is based on Mariane Pearl's 2003 memoir of what happened to her husband.
Bussey, the Journal's Washington bureau chief and Pearl's former boss, agreed that risks are inherent in reporting.
As a journalist you make "a calculated risk when you get in a taxi. No matter what, you are taking a risk. We try to reduce that to the lowest possible risk to get the story," he said.
Bussey, who is portrayed in "A Mighty Heart," flew to Karachi from New York after he got the news that Pearl had not returned from interviewing a source. Pearl was working on a story involving shoe bomber Richard Reid.
LeVine, who worked closely with Pearl in Pakistan and now covers energy and foreign affairs for BusinessWeek, added: "If you're going abroad and going into a turbulent zone, you should know that you could get hurt." LeVine is also portrayed in the movie.
If a story is potentially dangerous, "I'll go out with a fixer, translator or another reporter," Stecklow said.
Bussey pointed out that the Journal does not micromanage its reporters but sets a number of ground rules and asks them a series of tough questions before they take on an assignment. Overall, "you have to build a trusting relationship with the reporter," he said.
The panelists thought "A Mighty Heart" was well-done but said it didn't offer a real sense of who Pearl was.
"The Danny in 'A Mighty Heart' is much more serious, more like a Marvin Kalb-type," Bussey said. "Danny delivered outstanding copy, but went against conventional wisdom. He was very much his own man. He was also a tremendous musician."
"Reel Journalism," sponsored by the Newseum and the American University School of Communication, showcases classic and contemporary films depicting the important role of the press in a democratic society.

Shortly after "Dancing With the Stars'" most dissatisfied dancers, soccer star Hope Solo and partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy, took their final bow Tuesday night, judge Carrie Ann Inaba took to Twitter to make a post-ballroom boot statement about "haters."
"Life is too short to worry about what haters have to say," Inaba wrote on the heels on her recent back-and-forth with Chmerkovskiy.
"There will always be haters," she continued. "And it's not my job to please the displeased."
Whether the jab was intended just for Chmerkovskiy or meant to be shared with Solo is uncertain. Heck, it's even possible Inaba didn't intend to aim it at either of them, but after the results show featured the pro and Solo making bleeped comments about the "Dancing" panel, that sure seems unlikely.
There's been no return fire from the dancers — at least not yet. Ballroom's bad boy has remained oddly tight-lipped since the elimination, and according to UsMagazine.com, a teary Solo refused the opportunity to speak to the press after the show, save for one TV interview.
What do you think of Carrie Ann's comment? And what about Hope Solo's decision to stay silent? Share your thoughts on our Facebook page.

Forward Tallied One Assist in Three Games for P-Bruins
Providence, RI - The Providence Bruins, in their 18th year in the American Hockey League, announced that they have released forward Kenny Roche from his Professional Tryout Agreement. With the move, the P-Bruins have 24 players on their roster, including 14 forwards, eight defensemen and two goaltenders.
Roche, 26, was recalled by Providence on January 15 from the ECHL's Charlotte Checkers, where he began the season with 27 points (16g, 11a) in 33 games. The fourth-year pro appeared in three games for the P-Bruins, registering an assist on January 16 in Providence's 3-2 overtime loss to the Hartford Wolf Pack.
The South Boston, Massachusetts, native and four-year standout for the Boston University Terriers has enjoyed previous AHL experience with the Lake Erie Monsters and Hartford Wolf Pack, appearing in 35 games with seven points (2g, 5a) between the two squads. In his professional career, Roche has 84 points (37g, 47a) in 138 regular season games and five points (2g, 3a) in 12 postseason contests. The center was selected by the New York Rangers 75th overall in the third round of the 2003 National Hockey League Entry Draft.
Providence returns to action next weekend with two games, beginning Friday at 7:05 p.m. against the Lowell Devils for Dunkin' Donuts Mug Night. Mugs are free to the first 3,000 fans in attendance. After an off-day on Saturday, the P-Bruins host the Springfield Falcons on Sunday at 4:05 p.m. for Kids T-Shirt Night with shirts free to the first 1,000 kids 12 and under. To purchase 2009-10 season tickets, Flex Tix or individual game tickets, please call the Providence Bruins ticket office at (401) 273-5000 or log on to the team website at providencebruins.com.

New boat folks
Diamond Yacht Sales has been on the Blaine marina since
1995, but since April, its been full of new faces.Gary
and Dallas Ramberg of Hermiston, OR purchased the business
from John and Diane Russo and moved to Blaine with son Kelly.
We always liked it up here, Gary said, and with
family in the area and a chance to put his years of auto
sales and yacht brokering to work after he retired, he jumped
at the chance to purchase the business.
Since they took over, the Rambergs have concentrated on the little things, improving equipment and upgrading their website, which routinely carries 35 50 sail and power boat listings with digital photos.
The only familiar face at Diamond Yacht Sales is Charles E. Lind, whos been with the business since July last year. He saw it as an opportunity to put my sales experience and love of boating together. Ramberg said that with Linds expertise in sailboats, and his interest in power boats, We make a good team..

SAN JOSE- While the San Jose Sharks yet again missed out on their goal of winning the Stanley Cup in 2013, the vibe in the locker room on clean out day seemed much different than in years past.
Disappointed, yes, but not the same doom and gloom of recent playoff exits.
Last year saw many things go wrong and they were eliminated by St. Louis in five. In 2011, a number of players gave underwhelming performances (Dany Heatley, Ben Eager, Niclas Wallin, Kent Huskins come to mind) as they lost to Vancouver in five. And while the 2010 Chicago Blackhawks weren't going to be denied, that Sharks team had plenty of poor performers as well.
This time around, however, it is incredibly difficult to nitpick, and if you find yourself nitpicking, stop. Just stop. There is absolutely no whipping boy you could possibly pick out of this year's Sharks.
This year's Sharks were a bounce away from knocking off the defending Stanley Cup champs, whom many still consider the best team in hockey.
What more can you reasonably ask for as a Sharks fan? It was shocking to me to hear national media rip on Joe Thornton and Patrick Marleau. Thornton was unbelievable all playoffs long, Marleau was fantastic against Vancouver and did a lot of good things against LA. Could both have been a bit better in Game 7? Sure, maybe they could have but hindsight is 20-20. We can look back and nitpick, but the Sharks played strong hockey in 11 of their 12 playoff games. Only game they deserved to lose was Game 5 in Los Angeles.
And since they deserved to lose just one game out of the seven against LA, yours truly found it shocking to hear some of his media colleagues confidently state they thought the Kings were the better team.
Logan Couture certainly believes otherwise, calling this year's exit "more frustrating" because he thinks they were the better team. And they were.
Los Angeles didn't play a good game at even strength until Game 5. And in Games 6 and 7 the two clubs played each other toe to toe.
When I do the math, the Sharks were the better team in four games, the worse team in one game and even in two.
If you try to argue otherwise, I'll simply shake my head and give you a stern Sheldon Cooper facial expression.
This is without a doubt the first year since the Joe Thornton trade (2005-06) where there is little to be critical of when it comes to the Sharks performance in the playoffs. Many of the players acknowledged that they felt their game was where right where it had to be.
"It was right there for us, that's the toughest part." commented Joe Pavelski. "We were a bounce or two short. The belief was definitely there. Rather go out this way, fighting and getting a lot out of everybody than the other way."
"The belief in the room and the way we played was really strong" chimed Marleau. "We felt we were going to go really far this year. I think everybody thought it was our year the way we came together as a group so it's a little bit tougher that way but at least you can look yourself in the mirror and be happy with the way we played."
"We felt we played great." added captain Joe Thornton. "We played our best games coming down the stretch and that's all you want as a team. We were happy with the way we played and that's it."
"We were that close to moving on and that's frustrating" confirmed Dan Boyle. "That said, we came a long way from where we were a couple months ago. I've been here five years now and we have something really good going. [Losing] is frustrating but [I'm] proud of the way we competed, we were that close."
The 2010 Blackhawks were a better team.
The 2011 Canucks were a better team.
The 2012 Blues were a better team.
The 2013 Kings might just repeat as Stanley Cup champions, but they weren't the better team. And that ought to be at least a minor consolation for the Sharks to hang their hats on.
No, the Sharks didn't achieve their goal, but this was the first year in history that their top-to-bottom performance was championship worthy.

Previous: Images in LaTeX export, Up: LaTeX and PDF export
The LaTeX class beamer allows production of high quality presentations using LaTeX and pdf processing. Org mode has special support for turning an Org mode file or tree into a beamer presentation.
When the LaTeX class for the current buffer (as set with
beamer) or subtree (set with a
LaTeX_CLASS property) is
beamer, a special export mode will turn the file or tree into a beamer
presentation. Any tree with not-too-deep level nesting should in principle be
exportable as a beamer presentation. By default, the top-level entries (or
the first level below the selected subtree heading) will be turned into
frames, and the outline structure below this level will become itemize lists.
You can also configure the variable
org-beamer-frame-level to a
different level—then the hierarchy above frames will produce the sectioning
structure of the presentation.
A template for useful in-buffer settings or properties can be inserted into the buffer with M-x org-insert-beamer-options-template. Among other things, this will install a column view format which is very handy for editing special properties used by beamer.
You can influence the structure of the presentation using the following properties:
org-beamer-environments-default, and you
can define more in
org-beamer-environments-extra. If this property is
set, the entry will also get a
:B_environment: tag to make this
visible. This tag has no semantic meaning, it is only a visual aid.
[t] or
[<+->] of
<2-3>. If the
property is also set, something like
C[t] can be added here as well to
set an options argument for the implied
columns environment.
c[t] or
c<2-> will set an options for the implied
:BMCOL: property to make this visible.
Also this tag is only a visual aid. When this is a plain number, it will be
interpreted as a fraction of
\textwidth. Otherwise it will be assumed
that you have specified the units, like '3cm'. The first such property
in a frame will start a
columns environment to surround the columns.
This environment is closed when an entry has a
BEAMER_col property
with value 0 or 1, or automatically at the end of the frame.
Frames will automatically receive a
fragile option if they contain
source code that uses the verbatim environment. Special beamer
specific code can be inserted using
#+BEAMER: and
#+BEGIN_BEAMER...#+END_BEAMER constructs, similar to other export
backends, but with the difference that
#+LaTeX: stuff will be included
in the presentation as well.
Outline nodes with
BEAMER_env property value 'note' or
'noteNH' will be formatted as beamer notes, i,e, they will be wrapped
\note{...}. The former will include the heading as part of the
note text, the latter will ignore the heading of that node. To simplify note
generation, it is actually enough to mark the note with a tag (either
:B_note: or
:B_noteNH:) instead of creating the
BEAMER_env property.
You can turn on a special minor mode
org-beamer-mode for editing
support with
#+STARTUP: beamer
org-beamer-mode, this key offers fast selection of a beamer
environment or the
BEAMER_col property.
Column view provides a great way to set the environment of a node and other important parameters. Make sure you are using a COLUMN format that is geared toward this special purpose. The command M-x org-insert-beamer-options-template defines such a format.
Here is a simple example Org document that is intended for beamer export.
#+LaTeX_CLASS: beamer #+TITLE: Example Presentation #+AUTHOR: Carsten Dominik #+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [presentation] #+BEAMER_FRAME_LEVEL: 2 #+BEAMER_HEADER_EXTRA: \usetheme{Madrid}\usecolortheme{default} #+COLUMNS: %35ITEM %10BEAMER_env(Env) %10BEAMER_envargs(Args) %4BEAMER_col(Col) %8BEAMER_extra(Ex) * This is the first structural section ** Frame 1 \\ with a subtitle *** Thanks to Eric Fraga :BMCOL:B_block: :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_env: block :BEAMER_envargs: C[t] :BEAMER_col: 0.5 :END: for the first viable beamer setup in Org *** Thanks to everyone else :BMCOL:B_block: :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_col: 0.5 :BEAMER_env: block :BEAMER_envargs: <2-> :END: for contributing to the discussion **** This will be formatted as a beamer note :B_note: ** Frame 2 \\ where we will not use columns *** Request :B_block: Please test this stuff! :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_env: block :END:

"The closest to perfect smartphone"The Samsung Galaxy S3 is downright amazing. The moment I took it out of the box and turned it on, I fell in love. The display is absolutely gorgeous, texts are crisp and the colors are so beautiful. Call quality is pretty good since the earpiece is loud. The battery lasts me through the day and a bit more on a moderate to heavy usage. The design could've been better, but I'm pretty fine with plastic, since it is durable. It is a hair thicker than the Galaxy S2 I believe, but not a noticeable difference. The features that come with the phone is AWESOME!!! I have no idea how I lived without them before, the pop-up play is deffinately my favorite, where you could wawtch videos and do basically anything at the same time. Samsung has really done a good job at making their flagship device and I'm sure you wont regret it, getting this phone.

Tom Shoop, editor-in-chief, Government Executive

Click here to listen to the interview.
Just yesterday the White House announced Richard Cordray, the fledgling agency's enforcement chief and a former law professor who served as Ohio's attorney general during the housing foreclosure crisis, would head the agency.
Editor-in-Chief of Government Executive Tom Shoop joined Federal News Radio to discuss the agency's problems as well as its little-noticed successes.
In a blog post this week, Shoop described CFPB's creation - and the political fights surrounding it - as evidence of "How Not to Set Up An Agency."
Responding to a longer GovExec article, Shoop wrote: 'It's one thing to oppose creating an agency, and even to work for it to be abolished after it is created. It's another to deliberately try to hobble an organization established by law and prevent it from doing its work competently."

Robin Bott has created projects for and taught children's art in several area schools through Angels Gate Cultural Center and LA's Best After School Arts Enrichment Program. Her work, including sculptures, mosaics and puppets, has been a part of numerous exhibitions, particularly in the Harbor area. She is also a puppeteer with a flamboyant variety of puppet characters who often participate in her arts workshops. She is co-manager and co-curator of Gallery Eleven Seven in Long Beach's East Village Arts District.

THERE are moments you don't forget. Like the one-point victories against your foe, or close losses at the death. Then, there is the moment you realise that New Zealand has its very own Bonnie Doon.
I have learnt that rugby in 2012 has been about upsets and expecting the unexpected. So, when skimming through my diary before we departed to the land of The Long White Cloud to play the Highlanders, I was shocked to realise that the new stadium in Dunedin was not our final destination. Melbourne, meet Invercargill.
A true Melburnian who lands in town would notice some differences straight away.
The first thing I do on arrival is to buy a coffee. My standard potion for the day's work is a standard skinny double latte and it was hard to find. Sure there were places that sell coffee, but it was not the underground caffeine culture I was used to back home.
I did notice a cafe advertising tonight's match and I thought that any establishment spruiking a Victorian rugby side needed to be shown respect.
"Double skinny latte please madam,"I asked.
Hard to imagine anything going wrong with my order, or my day. Although, unexpectedly, my order returns.
"There you are love, double skinny latte," as I am handed two cups of coffee. Note to self, strong double latte, could mean strong or two. Benefit of the doubt by the TMO.
On the way to the hotel, my taxi driver is the brother of the receptionist at the hotel, who also had an uncle who played local rugby back in the day. His brother knew an All Black.
A standard afternoon before a match requires therapy, physiotherapy. I lay down on the wooden plank and take in the rolling green fields outside the hotel and can't help but compare it with my view at home. In Melbourne, I would be admiring 80,000 fans converging on the MCG, whereas here, I take in a similar number of sheep enjoying their day.
There is even the same last-minute ticket rush. I had a phone call from my second cousin I had never met. It was dad's brother's wife's sister's husband. We spoke for about 10 minutes about the good old days. I'm unsure where we are all related really, but it's pleasant. Then he asked me for tickets, and I certainly delivered.
We then set off on the team bus, driven by Bill, who was, funnily enough, related to my earlier taxi driver.
The Highlanders are not a flashy rugby team, but play the game as well as anyone. Hard, no-fuss rugby. Tonight, we need to take inspiration from this and play a simple but effective style of play.
They say Invercargill is a working-class city and we need to take inspiration from this in the way we approach tonight.
And this is where the similarities start.
It's the same paddock, with the same dimensions, and fierce intentions.
The strength of this competition are the towns like Invercargill and the teams such as the Highlanders.
One week you sit at a point where you are looking at the South Pole, the next you are among 40,000 at Newlands, South Africa, under picturesque Table Mountain.
I head for the hills to find a tree, to finish my diary of my day in Invercargill. As I sit back, I think: ''how's the serenity?''
And how fortunate I am to play in this Super Rugby competition.

Paul Shapiro's Animal News You Can Use! »
It's Paul Shapiro's weekly Animal News You Can Use! Yay!
First and foremost, don't miss last night's ABC World News feature on the new undercover investigation by Compassion Over Killing that led USDA to shut down a major California slaughter plant this week. Impressive.
Also, this week New Jersey's largest paper officially endorsed the state's bill to ban gestation crates for pigs, even citing in its endorsement the op-ed referenced in last week's email. Boom.
Speaking of pigs, food service giant Aramark announced with HSUS that it will require its pork suppliers to end their use of gestation crates. Bring it.
Finally, five years in a row, VegNews readers have voted HSUS their favorite animal protection group. You can help make it six by voting for us in this year's Veggie Awards! [Ed.: Vote for Vegansaurus for favorite blog and Ask Laura for favorite column, too, if you want xoxoxoxoxo!]

Vegan-style events for you!
Remember, the Women Entrepreneurs Showcase happens on Sunday in Berkeley, with a vegan catered lunch for only $4! Be at the David Brower Center at 2150 Allston Way from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.—lunch begins at noon.
The Recess Ends DVD release party is set for next Friday, May 7 at Medicine Agency, 1262 Mason St. at Jackson Street in San Francisco. The Recess Ends is a documentary about national unemployment—it sounds interesting, definitely worth a look. The screening starts at 8 p.m.
Miscellaneous items of varying importance!
Pajamactivism for the day: oppose the oil and gas leasing on the Outer Continental Shelf (via Defenders of Wildlife); ask Ahold to boycott Canadian seafood (via HSUS);' Californians, contact members of the state Senate Appropriations Committee to express your opposition to SB 1345, which would legalize the importation and sale of kangaroo meat (via BAARN). "Pajamactivism"—y/n?
Aw you guys! CNN has the sweetest article about last weekend's Worldwide Vegan Bakesale, with lots of photos of food you want to eat and people—and animals—you want to hug. San Francisco's will happen next weekend, because of schedules, and whatever, you'll get your desserts.
Baby activists: you could get scholarships for your awesome veg lifestyle! The Wall Street Journal finds it all a little silly—these children and their microloans, haven't they money of their own?—but we say, go for it!
We've got all kinds of non-dairy milks made of all kinds of items, but we don't have chickpea milk—yet. Israel does, though, and yes please we would like to try it.
The dairy industry, torturers of cows for profit (and fun?), would like the entire world to stop calling all non-animal milk "milk" and start calling it "imitation milk," toute de suite. According to the National Milk Producers Federation, "soy milk" is a "bastardization of dairy terms." Alternatively: "soy jism." Yes, someone outside of a creepy Western romance novel full of rape and cattle-roping still uses that word.
Attention pescatarians: you may now ease your consciences by purchasing your fish at Target and Wal-Mart, two of the top five purveyors of sustainable seafood as rated by Greenpeace. We are thrilled for you.
An Antioch, Calif. animal shelter killed two pit bulls this week, in apparent violation of the Hayden Act and despite the hard work of animal advocates. Life is so awesome, you guys.
"Foodies" are vegans, by which I mean, "white, affluent cultural snobs" and "elitists" who "romanticize poverty" and are basically terrible jerks who love eating. Get it?
On that note: need vegan wine recommendations? The Chronicle has an article about making and pairing wine in a "meat two ways!" world.
Have you been reading Fed Up with Lunch blog? This week we got a guest blog about Meatless Mondays in the NYC public school system, and another from an organic farmer in Texas.
Let's celebrate May Day with veal for a nickel! This doesn't make me want to punch anyone in the stomach AT ALL. I'm also not at all irritated by the "Chicken wars" title of Michael Bauer's little blog about all the delicious fried chicken choices in Southeast Kansas. "Chicken wars—whose tortured, murdered chicken has been prepared most tastily?" Man, fuck you guys.
OK, deep, cleansing breath: perhaps a visit to one of our fine city's many cult-ish religion-run veg restaurants would help. Jackson West seemed to have a lovely time at all of them (I have been craving Golden Era for weeks, incidentally).
You can't get Pizza Hut on military bases anymore, but you can get it in some prisons. Thanks, Aramark!
The down in your lovely soft comforter was most likely plucked from a living goose, which "constitutes torture." Because you can only pluck a dead goose once, but you can pluck a living goose up to four times before you have to kill it! HA HA HA.
Letterman and his audience may find the idea of chicken activism high-larious, but after Ira Glass visited a rescued chicken farm, he went vegetarian. Fuck yeah Karen Davis!
The internet's been all up in a bunch about discovering that chimpanzees grasp the concepts of "dying" and "death," but I feel like Jane Goodall sort of already knew this 40 years ago? Regardless: if this leads to NEVER EXPERIMENTING ON THEM AGAIN, I'll be happy; otherwise, science can shut the fuck up with its amazing animal discoveries and no heart.
You know what other animals are amazing? Elephants, duh! This week, an elephant in the Houston zoo made friends with a pit bull, which is apparently the only way a pit bull can be adopted in Houston, Texas. An elephant and dog in Tennessee are best friends, too, though that's on an elephant sanctuary rather than a gross-out zoo. We also learned this week that elephants have a specific word meaning "let's get out of here, there are bees around," leading me to believe elephant language is rather like German.

"I knew that because of who I am, and the situation I'm in, that I'd attract more critics than your average person, and that was a little intimidating, but I wanted to get out there and pay my dues."

Daniel Nayeri and Dina Nayeri
Teen Fiction NAYERI
Summary: A devilish debut by a brother-sister team invites us into the world of the elite Marlowe School, where some gifted students are having a hell of a year. One night, in cities all across Europe, five children vanish -- only to appear, years later, at an exclusive New York party with a strange and elegant governess. Rumor and mystery follow the Faust teenagers to the city's most prestigious high school, where they soar to suspicious heights with the help of their benefactor's extraordinary "gifts." But as the students claw their way up -- reading minds, erasing scenes, stopping time, stealing power, seducing with artificial beauty -- they start to suffer the sideeffects of their own addictions. And as they make further deals with the devil, they uncover secrets more shocking than their most unforgivable sins. At once chilling and wickedly satirical, this contemporary reimagining of the Faustian bargain is a compelling tale of ambition, consequences, and ultimate redemption.

Soaked in Semen and Blood: Gay Men and the Queering of Metaformic Conscisouness →
Gay anal sex is pure pleasure, bleeding as "shakti" [12] (not trauma) and creativity without a biological goal – simply magic and ritual. Anal bleeding from gay sex fits neatly into Grahn's metaformic concept of a parallel ritual to menstruation. It is trickster in intent and wildly steeped in male separation from the mother. If we take the work of radical anthropologist Chris Knight seriously, we might imagine the males of a tribe - 300,000 years ago - during the period of the new moon out on a hunt engaging in body painting, piercing ritual and intercourse with each other to produce bleeding from the anus during a "no meat, no sex… sex-strike."

It has been a tremendous first week. I know exhaustion has started to hit when "dumb" things start happening. For example, I stopped at the gas station right after the grocery store a yesterday evening… And then drove home 40 miles with the gas tank open, only to notice the little message flashing on the dash this morning on my way back to internship. But this morning's supervision ignited my clinician brain and really helped me focus.
We talked about how to meet a variety of client needs in the face of tremendous ambivalence. We exchanged with the psychiatrist how to best play to the client's strengths and ultimately help her or him to be more receptive to treatment or making decisions. I am supposedly working with a 16-year-old female who I jokingly say "hates" me. She told me point blank from the start, "No offense but you're an intern. I'm not gonna open up to you. You're just gonna leave at the end of the year." I can't compete with that! She was right about that but I'd be here to support her anyway and how could I help? We've met twice. We started in October. She has No-Showed on me every single week since then. I don't take this personally. Nor did I take today's missed session personally. But this afternoon I caught an urge to call her at 5:30, hoping she'd be home. "I hear you're doing really well," I said. "How can I make this work for you? People (court/probation officer) will call for an update and what can I tell them?" Hopefully she will understand that I don't want to tell them "I've seen her twice of 16 scheduled sessions." By framing things in a way that might be more meaningful for her, I hope to redirect my own occasional frustrations at not being able to do any work with this client but also motivate her to want to start check in with me. That one impulsive phone call might have been the least dumb thing I did this week since her tone of voice indicated she might actually show up next week.

Product Found In: All Mini Splits, Senville Mini Splits, Mini Split Dual Zone Systems, Mini Split Heat Pumps, Mini Splits 16 SEER,
Intricate Inverter Technology
When working or enjoying time at home, you'll find yourself in constant discomfort when your heating or air conditioning constantly vacillates throughout the day. The Inverter Technology included in all Senville Ductless Air Conditioners eradicates this menacing issue permanently.
Inverter compressors operate at adaptable speeds instead of constant ones. Through this operative manner, those who are at work or home can enjoy a comfortable rate of temperature all year long. Elimination of the on/off cycle most air conditioners typically implement drastically reduces electrical consumption by up to 40%, which was a nice addition to the Senville line this year. Inverter air conditioners tend have longer life spans in general due to their speed control capabilities.
Saving Money on Energy All Year long
As a result of years of engineering at the highest standards, Senville air conditioners are some of the most efficient available on the market. The inverter technology installed in all Senville products help them reach S.E.E.R.(Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) as high as 19! Senville air conditioners have earned certifications from international standards such as ENERGY STAR and AHRI. Senville ductless mini splits meet the requirements for tax credits offered in certain states in the USA and provincial areas of Canada, giving you extra money back during tax season for an already affordable Senville unit.
The Senville line of air conditioners are pre-charged with the new ecologically friendly R410A refrigerant. Since Freon gases such at the R22 causes depletion in the ozone layer, the more advanced R410A receives great praise from green-friendly users and support group since they do not use such a deteriorating gas.
Multi-Purpose Compressor
The multi-faceted Senville ductless air conditioners are precision manufactured with Toshiba compressors which can invariably be used as heat pumps during the winter months. The outdoor units are equipped with a defrost cycle, allowing these mini split Senville units to operate with outdoor temperatures that drop as low as 5°F / -15° C. You'll be able to operate this unit year round and watch the heating and cooling savings rack up through its energy efficient operation.
Senville units are readily equipped with a self-diagnostic system telling you exactly what the issue might be should an error in operation arise. This will assist in resolving the issue quickly or guiding the technician on the area to repair.
Senville's customer support system is dedicated to helping you with any issue you may encounter, with knowledgeable representatives and skilled technicians just a phone call or email away. We also want to enable our more independent customers as much as we can, so those who wish to solve a problem on their own are free to do so to the best of their abilities. Whether it is product information, troubleshooting, or installation assistance, this page provides a multitude of customer resources for you, available as a free PDF download and labeled by general category. Each link contains a brochure that we hope will help answer any questions you may have. For any additional information, contact us toll free at 1-800-242-4935 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
It is always ideal to have a local HVAC technician installer and service your unit for warranty and safety related issues.

History tells how us how presidential rivals used to come to virtual blows during debates! I remember when candidates passed out political party picture cards as advertising. We kids created a flipping game. Harry Truman used the train stops for speeches.
Now with our modern TV technology, presidential rivals spend millions and give us promises they can't keep without favors to donors. The TV conglomerate profits alone could cover our national debt.
Our daily TV viewing is limited to infantile mentality. They would never agree to give us real live debates a month before elections so we could make our own educated and consciousness decisions. They would lose millions!

Patchy skin color is areas where the skin color is irregular. Mottling or mottled skin refers to blood vessel changes in the skin that cause a patchy appearance.
Irregular or patchy discoloration of the skin can be caused by:
The following can increase or decrease melanin production:
Exposure to sun or ultraviolet (UV) light, especially after taking a medicine called psoralens, may increase skin color (pigmentation). Increased pigment production is called hyperpigmentation.
Decreased pigment production is called hypopigmentation.
Skin color changes can be their own condition, or they may be caused by other medical conditions or disorders.
How much skin pigmentation you have can help determine which skin diseases you may be more likely to develop. For example, lighter-skinned people are more sensitive to sun exposure and damage, which raises the risk for skin cancers. However, too much sun exposure can lead to skin cancers even in darker-skinned people.
See also:
Generally, skin color changes are cosmetic and do not affect physical health. However, mental stress can occur because of pigment changes. Some pigment changes may be a sign that you are at risk for other medical disorders.
Normal skin color may return on its own in some cases.
You may use lotions that bleach or lighten the skin to reduce discoloration or to even the skin tone where hypopigmented areas are large or very noticeable.
Selenium sulfide (Selsun Blue), ketoconazole, or tolnaftate (Tinactin) lotion can help treat tinea versicolor. Apply as directed to the affected area daily until the discolored patches disappear. Tinea versicolor often returns, even with treatment.
You may use cosmetics or skin dyes to hide skin color changes. Makeup can also help hide mottled skin, but it will not cure the problem.
Avoid too much sun exposure and use sunblock. Hypopigmented skin sunburns easily, and hyperpigmented skin may get even darker. In darker-skinned people, skin damage may cause permanent hyperpigmentation.
Contact your doctor if:
The doctor will carefully examine the skin and ask questions about your medical history and symptoms, such as:
Tests that may be done include:
Dyschromia; Mottling

A cold front pushing through the state will bring rain and thundershowers on Wednesday afternoon.
FOX 5 Storm Team meteorologist Joanne Feldman says the front will move into northwest Georgia between noon and 1 p.m. Rain totals could amount to 1/2".
Feldman says the rain should decrease by the time it hits the metro area between 3 and 5 p.m. Most areas should only see rain totals of 1/10" or less.
Some thunder and lightning is possible, but the chance for severe storms is low, says Feldman.
Feldman says the rain should be out of the area by midnight. Thursday temperatures are expected to be in the upper 60s.
