Review Date: 7-21-2014
This single malt tastes like it comes from a specific location. It has complex aromas that hint of the sea and of being on an island. The island experience continues with saline and enticing musty flavors. This is one of the most interesting and pleasing single malts that I have tasted recently.
Price: $149.99
1997 Benrinnes 17 Year Old K&L Exclusive Signatory Single Barrel Cask Strength Single Malt Whisky 750ml

Price: $79.99
2011 Ferrero Toscana Rosso
Review Date: 7-18-2014
This wine is absolutely delicious. It has bright red fruit aromas and flavors but also offers balance and structure. It is ready to drink now, but like many Italian wines, it will taste better if it is opened at least one hour before serving. The Ferro Rosso will go well with pasta or red meats.
Price: $16.99

More Americans intend to save—rather than spend—their federal tax refunds this year, according to the National Retail Federation's "Tax Returns Consumer Survey" conducted by consumer-intelligence firm BIGinsight.
Two-thirds of taxpayers are expecting a refund this year—the exact same as last year. Nearly 44% of them are expected to stash away some of their refund in savings—the most in the survey's nine-year history (and up 2% from last year).

Making sense of it allPosted on December 10th, 2008 – 10:46 PM
By La Velle
About 20 hours ago, I was led to believe that there was a chance the Twins could emerge as a third team in this whole Jake Peavy to the Cubs mess. That doesn't appear to be the case anymore, but the Twins could still have a chance for infielder Mark DeRosa.
It will be an interesting day here Thursday as Padres' GM Kevin Towers and Cubs GM Jim Hendry try to close this deal.
The Padres remind me a little bit of the Twins last year when they tried to trade Johan Santana. In the end, there was one viable suitor. A full no-trade clause limited what offers were made.
San Diego might be in a tougher spot because Peavy obviously wants to play for the Cubs, the Cubs already have a very good rotation and don't have to give up more than they want. Reporters for both teams on Wednesday said Towers seemed to be worn down and Hendry rather relaxed. That makes sense.
DeRosa could end up in the Peavy three-way trade, as the Phillies appear to be that third team. But the Cubs could deal DeRosa separately to either the Phillies or Twins. As of this writing, we all expected talks to last into the early morning.
It's unclear who the Cubs want from the Twins for DeRosa. They need a left-handed hitting outfielder, but I was assured that a request for Jason Kubel had not been made yet. I don't know if the Twins would deal him, anyway.
What I don't understand is if the Padres want pitching back and they don't want to take on Jason Marquis' $9.875 million salary (the Cubs have to dump salary to make this work) why can't the Twins step in?
The only reason I can come up with is that the Padres would want Kevin Slowey. They were itching to draft Slowey in 2005 and their draft room apparently went nuts when the Twins took him in the second round. Then Slowey pitched well against them in Petco Park this year. A lot of teams have asked about Slowey this offseason but I sense the Twins draw the line there.
Haven't heard much more on other trade news, other than Delmon Young remains somewhere on Philly's radar and there's a chance the Rockies and Twins could talk again about Garrett Atkins. They aren't interested in Jorge Cantu and, suddenly, Twins people are telling me there are no-trade problems with Adrian Beltre. He does have a limited no-trade but there were no indications during the season that the Twins were on it.
And I haven't heard a thing about relief help.
Well there's one more day left in the winter meetings, but plenty of days left before spring training. It's not time to be an alarmist but the Twins better do more this offseason than re-sign Nick Punto.
As I write this, the Tigers and Rays are holding a press conference about a Matt Joyce-for-Edwin Jackson trade. And the Mets, Indians and Mariners just pulled off a 12-player deal in which J.J. Putz goes to the Mets. The Mets are building a bullpen!
Man, the team I cover never makes a trade here…..

Regular readers of our Joplin law blog will undoubtedly recall an article we published a little more than a year ago, telling the story of a woman whose donated kidney was thrown away. Her brother had donated the organ to help his then-24-year-old sister, but before it could be transplanted, a nurse at the hospital threw it away.
Back when we published the story in August of 2013, the hospital denied that "the mistake rises to the level of medical negligence." In the 13 months since, things have changed.

This hotel has undergone significant renovations since our visit.
We will update our photos and review as soon as we can.
Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators
Luxury that's designed for families, including pets, in one of New York's wealthiest neighborhoods, the Upper East Side.
Sleeping lions, pine shrubs, and red window canopies greet visitors at this enduring property in Park Avenue -- one of the most affluent parts of the most affluent neighborhood in the city (the Upper East Side). The Loews Regency, a high-end chain with 16 properties across the U.S. and Canada (including Miami and Las Vegas), was once the favorite New York City getaway of Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor. Today, guests are a bit more down to earth (mostly middle-age executives) but they're still here for the same luxurious details and easy comfort that made this place a stunner for the Hollywood elite. Nearly all guests -- 90 percent to be exact -- are repeat customers, and staff members always work to remember people by name.
After dark, 540 Park (a popular breakfast restaurant) transforms into Feinstein's, a cabaret and supper club. When Barbara Cook belts out Broadway classics or a famous magician stakes the stage, it can be difficult to find an empty red upholstered dining chair. But these shows are great for families.
Though the lobby is far less impressive than the one at the chichi Waldorf Astoria, there are always plenty of people lounging. The comfy plush couches and velvet club chairs are just the kind of place a tweed blazer-clad professor might take a nap before dinner at The Library, the hotel's cozy cocktail and light-fare lounge.
The hotel closed January 1, 2013 for a year-long renovation period.
Extremely attentive, and impressively well staffed
The hotel is geared toward service, and most guests find an overabundance of help. The hotel could have gotten along just fine with one person at the front desk but there were two present, as well as two bellmen. Pleasing guests and quickly giving them what they want is of the utmost priority. It's why 90 percent of the guests come back every year.
On tony Park Avenue on the Upper East Side, in walking distance of the business centers and landmarks in Midtown East. The area is pretty, but quiet at night.
The Loews is on the Upper East Side on Park Avenue, a street that is famous for its high-end real estate (it is on the list of most expensive city streets in the U.S.). The broad treelined boulevard is mostly recognizable by its grass median, which is also lined with trees (one of the only streets in Manhattan that has this feature). During the winter holidays the trees are decorated with tasteful white lights, and in springtime the medians bloom with cheerful tulips. No matter what the time of the year, taxis are always consistently whizzing by.
Park Avenue is, for the most part, as safe as it looks, even at night. The street is lined mostly with high-end residential buildings (each with a doorman), which operate as the avenue's watchmen to some degree.
Nighttime noise is virtually nonexistent since the neighborhood is mostly composed of the early-to-bed-and-early-to-rise crowd. It is not the place for guests who are rearing for the excitement of Times Square or the chic restaurants and beautiful people of Soho. In short, the Loews Regency is not the place to stay for a late night Gotham buzz.
The hotel's location -- at 61st Street -- is on the cusp of frenetic Midtown and the hoity-toity Upper East Side. Just two blocks west is the city's urban jungle, Central Park. The high-end shops and boutiques of Madison Avenue -- from Gucci and Hermès to Armani and Ralph Lauren -- are just a block away.
About 30 to 90 minutes from three airports
New York City has three nearby airports: JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark (in New Jersey). Flying into JFK or LaGuardia is typically easiest and the least time-consuming. From JFK, it's a (one-hour) $45 flat-rate taxi ride to anywhere in Manhattan. From LaGuardia, it's about a (30-minute) $40 metered cab ride to Midtown Manhattan. Rides from Newark cost at least $40 (plus tolls), and can take more than 90 minutes. Don't forget to tip your driver 15 to 25 percent.
To save some cash, try the group shuttles that are available at all three airports for about $14 per person. For more information on the shuttles, go to Super Shuttle or New York Airport Service. You can also take public transit from any of the airports for as little as $7 per person, but travel can take up to two hours and involve a lot of lugging bags up and down stairs. For mass-transit directions right to the hotel, check out HopStop.com.
Average design and size (aka small), but comfort comes in the details -- great beds, marble desks, excellent coffeemakers, and spa robes.
The standard rooms -- with either two twin beds or one king -- are comfortable and slightly larger than average hotel rooms in New York City (but 225 square feet is still pretty small). Rooms are outfitted in tasteful beige, cream, and brown tones with marble, woven brocade, and 100-percent cotton. But nothing is showy.
Small details are what make the rooms: 300 thread-count sheets, a marble-topped desk by the expansive windows that's slanted ever so slightly and paired with an ergonomic desk chair. There is a Keurig coffeemaker, which brews good coffee by the cup, and a 32-inch LG flat-screen TV.
In the bathroom, there are LATHER-brand bath products, plush ring-spun terry towels with fancy, gold-thread Loews logos, and to accompany them, an "Ultimate Doeskin" robe by Chadsworth & Haig. The only outdated oddity: a tiny old tube TV set, circa 1980.
Minibars include everything from Brent & Sam chocolate chip cookies to Martinelli's apple juice, though each item is priced high enough to make some guests think twice.
There is excellent air circulation in the room and the central air system is easy to control (this is not always the case). The view from the "superior room" -- the standard room at this hotel -- is of the courtyard, which is really just a nice way to say the airshaft.
For a little more money ($25 to $60 depending on the room and time of year), guests can have a better view -- either of 61st Street or Park Avenue -- and a little more square footage. Luxury kings or doubles will provide 130 more square feet and a view of 61st Street, as well as a 42-inch flat-screen TV. Suites are a garden variety -- designed in different schemes to capture the various neighborhood styles of New York -- and priced based on size (400 to 1600 square feet), and depending on what the view is from the window. I took a look at a luxury suite, which includes a terrace with plenty of seating and a sweeping view of Park Avenue. A terrace this nice is hard to come by in New York.
Well-equipped fitness center and a complimentary "open closet," which lets guests borrow everything from power strips to cufflinks
The Verve Fitness Center on the lower level is a well-equipped gym with plenty of new Nautilus and cardio equipment. A private trainer and massage services can be arranged through the concierge. Sauna and steam room facilities are also on site and available to all guests.
The Nico Hair Salon, adjacent to the fitness center, offers cuts, color, and styling to guests, and has also been known to prep more than its share of brides, since the Loews Regency does three to four small weddings a week during the spring high season.
The hotel has an open closet and lends guests items that they may have forgotten -- a gimmick that's actually useful! Everything from power strips to evening wear can be borrowed at no extra charge. If the hotel doesn't have what a guest needs, they are happy to venture out and get it.
Loews Regency is a completely wired building and guests can get online with personal laptops in the lobby, restaurants, and rooms. Internet access is $12.95 a day. There is also a business center, which has three PCs available for use.
Classy and kid-friendly come together at this hotel -- and it works. Family-size suites, welcome toys, kids' menus, and free milk and cookies.
If the kids are coming along, the hotel will make them feel like VIPs. Prior to arrival, Guest Services asks guests for the age and names of each child in order to give them each an appropriate welcome gift package. Kids ages 4-8 might get their very own yellow toy taxi and Fisher Price activities; preteens are usually given a doodle pad or an Etch-a-Sketch; iPod-obsessed teens score gift cards for music downloads. In the spring, kids often get backpacks and jump ropes since they will likely be heading to nearby Central Park. As long as the parents don't report any food allergies in advance, kids will come home to their hotel room and usually find free milk and cookies waiting for them.
Comfortable sleeping arrangements for the entire family are also easy to come by. Some suites have guaranteed sofa beds -- just ask when making a reservation. A roll-away bed fits easily in the Luxury and Grand Luxury rooms (though not the Superior), and costs $25 extra per night. All rooms can be childproof; cribs and strollers are available upon request and are complimentary.
Kids' menus are available at The Library, the all-purpose restaurant in the lobby that also handles room service orders. There are greasy-good kid favorites, plus healthier options. Twice a month on Sundays, the hotel's supper club, Feinstein's, puts on a sophisticated magic show. With Central Park, the Museum of Natural History, FAO Schwartz toy store, ice-skating at Rockefeller Center all within walking distance, the Midtown East location is great for families.
A full food menu and nearby Central Park make this an ideal spot for four-leggers. Plus, there's no weight restriction, just a $25 fee.
It is virtually impossible to walk down Park Avenue and not see a furry fuzz ball tucked into a Chanel purse or on a leash running after a taxi. The Loews Regency takes their cue from neighborhood residents, opening their doors to four-legged friends with just a one-time cleaning fee per visit of $25 (a good deal, compared to the price-gouging W hotels).
Upon arrival, all pets get a complimentary welcome basket, with a pet bowl and treats, as well as a brochure that highlights services for grooming, walking, and local veterinarians (services cost extra). Amenities such as cat or dog beds, scratching poles, and litter boxes can also be arranged for an additional fee. The hotel limits guests to two pets per room.
Central Park, a dog walker's dream, is just two blocks away.
Not surprising, the Loews Regency is impeccable, as only a Park Avenue address would be. In fact, the block the hotel almost completely takes up is some of the cleanest concrete I've seen in the city.
The guest rooms are all equally neat and tidy. There is not a sign of dust or mold anywhere to be found. Some guests on TripAdvisor think the carpets in the hallways are a little dirty, but I didn't see anything worth noting during my visit.
Meals have ease, elegance, well-prepared but pricey fare, and the occasional high-profile lounge singer.
The Library restaurant and lounge serves three meals a day, and handles the hotel's room-service requests (available 24 hours). Located on the ground floor of the hotel, this restaurant has the feel of a regal study with its club chairs and door frames made of large replicas of leather-bound classics such as "Farewell to Arms," "The Great Gatsby," and "Age of Innocence." In their review of the restaurant, New York magazine noted that, though the food was satisfying, the ambience is much more the draw of this restaurant.
At dinner and cocktail time, the restaurant presents every guest with a complimentary spread of nuts, olives, fresh bread, and butter to accompany their aperitifs. The casual elegance and ease of The Library make the restaurant a popular spot among locals for after work drinks, but the menu is a bit pricy ($24-48 for an entrée) for a casual spot.
Breakfast at the other hotel restaurant, 540 Park, is a city institution. Gotham's powerbrokers and financiers -- such as Mayor Bloomberg and the Tisch family (who, incidentally, own the Loews hotel chain along with the NY Giants) -- have been known grab a coffee and an omelet in the handsome dining room. Lunch is also served.
During the day, the Steinway baby grand piano in the dining room sits covered, but at night it is revealed and 540 Park transforms into Feinstein's at the Regency, a nightclub that showcases acts such as 1980s TV star Tony Danza, Tony award-winning actress Betty Buckley, and Michael Feinstein himself. The Broadway theater singer and pianist takes center stage. A monthly calendar of performances can be viewed here. Supper is served during shows. The venue fills up fast -- the place has quite a local following -- but guests can make arrangements for a table with the concierge so they can enjoy cabaret performance along with their turkey burger on a brioche bun or a Park Avenue Pupu platter.
This class act on the Upper East Side's tony, treelined Park Avenue has excellent service and an on-site supper club with a world-class cabaret. It is in walking distance of Central Park, high-end shopping, and the Midtown East corporate centers. Plus, the hotel practically invented the power breakfast. THE HOTEL ClOSED IN JANUARY 2013 FOR RENOVATIONS.

WALTON, Ky. (AP) — A northern Kentucky mayor says he doesn't have plans to step down after being charged with abuse of public trust.
The Boone County sheriff's office says the charges against Walton Mayor Phil Trzop (TER'-zop) relate to his employment as manager of the Boone County Water District. Police say he used cash from scrap metal sales to give Christmas bonuses to employees, but kept some of it.
Trzop was suspended Saturday from his job at the Boone County Water District. He told The Kentucky Enquirer (http://bit.ly/Q8dt60) that he does not at this time have plans to resign as mayor.
He was elected on Nov. 6 to fill an unexpired term and was sworn in six days later — four days before his arrest. The term lasts through the end of 2014.

Danny Joe's Blog
I ate dog food…and LOVED it!
I had a chance to "discover" Northern Colorado with my family!
My family and I moved here 4 years ago from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Since the move, it's been two jobs and go go go. When I got hired as a promotions person for K99 (you know, the guy or girl who ISN'T the DJ at our live events) I really started to get to know the area around the cities and townships
What I love about being a Biker.
What is it that draws me to the biker community?
Ever since I was a kid my father always semmed to be going somewhere on an old honda motorcycle of his. Even though I didn't live with my dad, the stories of the trips he would take or the parades and toy runs he would participate in would always have my ears glued
It's date night for Danny Joe and his wife is ok with it!
I Love Being a Daddy!
How could a kid's toy be so dangerous for adults?
Well, it's official. Summertime is here at the Danny Joe household. Friday was such an unbelievable day. The sun was shining and the temperature was perfect for getting out and doing summery stuff. After watching the kids play in the back yard for a bit, we decided we should fire up the grill for the first time of the season
A Wonderful Day with my 10 yr old.
May 26 started off as a beautiful day. It was 60 degrees and pure sunshine. So how could a day like this get any better? I'll tell you how! My oldest daughter Katlynn and I participated in our first poker run with the Realities for Children Jokers Wild Poker Run.

"Backmask" is the most confusing title for a movie I've ever heard but it's actually a good old fashioned "record backwards letting out a demon" type romp. Excited? What if I was to tell you that "13 Going On 30" alum Brittany Curran has been added to the cast? Are you excited now? Well that was a test and you just failed. I hope you're happy.
Why the hell not! MTV has dropped news that they're beginning production on a TV series based on the popular "Scream" franchise. No word as of yet if Wes Craven, or anyone else from the series for that matter, will be involved with the project but word around campus is I'll make stupid comments about it for the next few weeks and then just ignore it all together. More on this story as it develops.
And here we go. "FDR: American Badass" is apparently not the next Kid rock album but a full fledged movie about our 32nd president riding around in a wheelchair trying to stop polo spreading werewolves. Serious. That's a real thing happening. The film has been picked up by Screen Media for distribution to VOD and DVD. Eventually we'll get to a point where Jimmy Carter is battling trolls. Then we'll know we've gone to far.
"Category Six" is a new found footage flick about a group of high school students who try to survive a category six tornado. Arlen Escarpeta,the guy who tried to beat it to a clothing catalog in the "Friday the 13th" remake, has been cast in the film as one of the high schoolers along side Alycia Debnam-Carey, who has a sour puss. Both are way too old to be high school students.
It's the old "mother going to jail for DUI because she left her baby on the roof of her car" gag. it never gets old.
Here's a story about a homeless man who tried to snatch up a baby from a stroller and eat it. Insert zombie apocalypse joke here.
To see boobies in 3D or not to see boobies in 3D. That is the question. It's a tough one, and unfortunately we're all going to have to answer it because Dimension films has just dropped that "Piranha 3DD" will be released both theatricality and on VOD at the same time. So will the dirtbag in me who wants to see bouncy things in 3D win over the part of me that hates seeing sunlight. I for one can't wait to see how this turns out.
There's so many genre shows in the works I almost forgot that there's already one I watch and kind of like. It's "American Horror Story". It's fun to learn things about each other isn't it? But the news here is that Evan Peters, Sarah Paulson, and Lily Rabe will all be returning for Season 2 as different characters. The story this season will take place on the East Coast and focus on Jessica Lange's character. I also really enjoy ice cream and Neil Diamond. I love you.
New movie alert! Oh god I love new movie alerts. The project is called "The Occult" and already has Rufus Sewell, Anne Heche, and Alycia Debnam-Carey in the cast. What's more it'll be directed by Christian E. Christiansen who directed "The Roomate" and that movie was terrible! Are you pumped? I was too excited to read the plot, but I did skim it and there's something about the devil's daughter coming to earth and a small town with some girls and some killings. Oh man, it's the best Monday ever.
Good for Julia Stiles. She's landed the lead role in the upcoming NBC series "Midnight Sun" about a FBI agent trying to track down a cult that mysteriously disappeared. I believe we're one step closer to finally seeing a "Save the Last Dance 2".
Rep. Roscoe Bartlett of Maryland has proposed the STACHE Act into his fine state. The act would give anyone with a mustache a 250$ tax break yearly. I believe it's time to move.
I've always though it would be cool to be in the Guinness Book of World Records. So did this guy in Sri Lanka apparently, because he attempted to break the record for longest time buried alive. He died though so I don't think he wins and there's a ton of people who have been buried dead for longer than him, so I think he's kind of f'ed.
CC's back, Joe's confused, and we hope you enjoy the new sound!
A movie that has the crew conflicted.

Fla. man sues ex-Elmo puppeteer, claims sex abuseBy KELLI KENNEDY
The Associated Press | December 11,2012MIAMI Another man on Monday sued the former Elmo puppeteer who resigned amid sex abuse allegations, claiming the voice actor befriended him in Miami and promised to be a father figure before flying the teen to New York to have sex with him.
The alleged victim is now the fourth to accuse Kevin Clash, who resigned from Sesame Street last month after 28 years. The three legal actions filed so far have been civil cases seeking financial compensation.
But the incident with the latest victim, referred to only as S.M., could involve criminal charges because the lawsuit claims Clash transported him across state lines for the purpose of engaging in sexual activity.
Attorney Jeff Herman said he encouraged his client to report the incident to authorities but its unclear if the now-33-year-old alleged victim has done so.
Sexual abuse allegations against Clash triggered a media frenzy last month. He quickly denied the first claim, which was recanted the next day. But Clash then resigned after a 24-year-old college student, Cecil Singleton, sued him for $5 million, saying the actor engaged in sexual behavior with him when he was 15.
Singleton claims the voice actor met him in New York a dozen years ago after trolling gay telephone chat lines and seeking underage boys for sex.
In the latest case, the plaintiff said Clash approached him on Miami Beach, complimented his appearance and struck up a friendship. Clash returned home to New York, but stayed in touch with the teen, promising to be a dad to him. The youth, who was 16 or 17 at the time, had been molested by a teacher and was considering running away from home, according to the lawsuit.
These are all vulnerable boys. None of them had father figures in their lives and they were looking for that father figure, said Herman, who represents three of the alleged victims.
The lawsuit says Cash paid for a plane ticket from Florida to New York in 1996 and arranged for a car service to pick up the teen and bring him to his upscale apartment, where he gave him cash and showered him with attention and affection and ultimately engaged in numerous sexual acts.
Herman said he is poring over receipts and other documents to see if the car service was paid for by Cashs employers at Sesame Street.
Messages left with a publicist for Clash were not immediately returned Monday.
Were confident in the actions that we took, but because this is now an issue between litigants, were not going to comment further, said Ellen Lewis, a publicist for Sesame Street.
Herman said the alleged victims didnt come forward sooner because they were afraid, but have found courage as others have spoken up.
He said they are compliant victims who participated in the sexual acts, but didnt consent because its illegal for a minor to do so.
Because they participated in the sex they feel like theyre doing something wrong ... theyre ashamed, theyre embarrassed, not something they really want to talk about, he said.
Herman said hes been contacted by several other possible victims and is vetting their cases.MORE IN Wire NewsCANADENSIS, Pa.

Just curious because it integrates wonderfully with BP. Even if you just use the free version it supports up to 25 chatters. I don't think I have ever really seen more than 10 people here at a time. It would be really nice to have that functionality! Thanks for listening to my request!

MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) - Former Walker aide Kelly Rindfleisch has given up her effort to keep thousands of records secret about her criminal conviction for illegal campaigning.
Her attorney, Franklyn Gimbel, said Monday he would not appeal a court ruling from last week which ordered that Rindfleisch's government e-mails be made public.
On Friday, Gimbel turned down an appellate judge's offer to let Rindfleisch review her e-mails, and ask that specific personal records remain sealed. Judge Patricia Curley gave Rindfleisch 30 days to get that done -- and Gimbel said it was not worth the time or the expense to go over literally tens of thousands of documents.
Rindfleisch was given a six-month jail sentence for running a Republican campaign operation while she was employed by Governor Scott Walker when he was the Milwaukee County executive.

"Why Can't We Solve Big Problems?"
I'll be giving a TED U Talk in Longbeach at the end of the month. I'll be asking "Why Can't We Solve Big Problems?" I think that blithe optimism about technology's powers has evaporated as big problems that people had imagined technology would solve, such as hunger, poverty, malaria, climate change, cancer, and the diseases of old age, have come to seem intractably hard.
I'd love to know what the TED Community thinks our difficulties are - or, even if the idea is true at all.

Feb 14 2013: What we forgott though is that said money has to be put to "good" use. To me it seems like a typical case of "who is mr. Longcock" whos got the highest economic growth the most influence on the global market.
Look at the current crysis, what couldve happend? Economic growth declined some companys died, some people lost their jobs. Germany paid 170Billion € for our european bailout because some weird market went crazy, we werent on the verge of poverty we wouldnt have died due to lack of food or water there wouldnt have been significantly more cases of cannibalism because people wouldve been starving for food.
No our states penis wasnt in a great mood and shrank by half an inch.
At the same time haiti got hit by a tsunami a huge amount of people fell into poverty, lost everything from one day to another however our penis wasnt in danger ... guess how much money germany used on helping haiti? Less then 0.1% of what was spent on our Bailout...17 Million € WOW HUGE SUCESS!
We just dont put enough effort into it, our state doesnt really care and yet we expect results its rididculous. Were setting a wrong focus thats about the whole point.

On the same day residents were being given a chance to tell a Federal Bankruptcy judge why they're opposed to Detroit's bankruptcy filing, a former mayor says he doesn't think there is really a choice.
Ex-mayor Dennis Archer making the remarks today at an event announcing the distribution of more than $1 million in scholarships made through a special fund set up after he left office.
Archer told FOX 2's M.L. Elrick, "everybody contributes in their own way. If everyone who is in a position can give back, can create opportunities, we can really turn the city of Detroit around very quickly. So whatever anybody can do, I think it is important for all of us to do it. To have something positive about our future.
Other cities have problems just like we do. It's just our turn in the barrel, but it's going to be turned around. I hope that what we will all learn from everything we have experienced over the last decade or so will cause those who are newly elected coming in office to think twice before they even think about doing any thing inappropriate. How to be fiscally conservative, how to make sure they pay the bills on time so we don't have this problem again," Archer said.
When asked if he thinks the bankruptcy filing is appropriate and the best thing for Detroit Archer said, "The mayor and city council entered into a consent agreement and they worked real hard. But they were not able to through working and consultations with the unions to make sufficient progress or savings. So they were still going to run out of cash money by the end of this year in 2013 or January of 2014.
With the emergency financial manager having been appointed, he's got a responsibility to see if he cannot hopefully negotiate, even if the judge says yes you're in bankruptcy, that they can still negotiate out and still work through satisfying the creditors as best possible with the money that's there. So that we can move forward and I think that is going to happen.
Everything that I've learned and everything that I've read seems to point to that direction. But there is no question in my mind that the city of Detroit is going to comeback. It's going to comeback and be even stronger. The purpose of bankruptcy, if we are permitted to go into bankruptcy, is to give somebody a fresh start.
You think about all the outstanding businesses or corporations that have been in bankruptcy and have come out and how they're making money now. How they're returning dividends and value to the shareholders. Hiring people, new jobs etc. That's the kind of thing the city of Detroit can do, and will do."
Archer says he doesn't believe Detroit has any choice but to go into bankruptcy, "You can't run a city without money. And if you're running out of cash and you take away the powers of the emergency financial manager, to pay these bills and forgo these, it would really be a disaster for the city," he said.

Intel starts cooling its servers by dunking them in mineral oil
Keeping servers cool is always a big concern for tech companies, and people are always trying to try new things to keep the temps down in order to keep performance up. At Intel, they're testing an interesting solution— keeping their servers in vats of mineral oil.
Intel just finished a yearlong test of Green Revolution Cooling's mineral-oil server-immersion technology. Intel has tried immersing servers in the company's oil formulation to keep the servers cool and they report good results. The Intel servers were subjected to a yearlong bath in boxes filled with the oil-based coolant.
Intel's results are one more way for the Austin, Texas-based company to pass along a convincing message that dipping a data center's servers in oil is not crazy but a sane way to cool the data center's power-hungry machines. The company believes its liquid cooling enclosures can cool high-density server installations at less cost.
"We can reduce cooling energy use by 90 to 95 percent while also reducing server power by 10 to 20 percent," according to the company.
Intel reports that the servers ran at a PUE just above 1.0, and showed no damage. Translation: Traditional air-cooled server racks often operate at a Power Usage Effectiveness rating of about 1.6. Intel's oil-immersed servers operated at a PUE between 1.02 and 1.03, according to Mike Patterson, senior power and thermal architect at Intel. Patterson said the oil-dunking approach is now in Intel's evaluation phase. Intel will need to understand the fuller implications of oil-optimized platforms.
Potentially, the approach may reduce the cost of running data centers, as cooling through the oil immersion system can bring reductions in average and peak power consumption. Those taking their first leap to use this oil immersion approach would be those who want as much power as possible coming out of their computing operations with as little as possible applied toward cooling.

(WMC-TV) - 64,000 Tennessee tax-payers missed it in 2012.
It cost them nearly $130 million.
It's one of the most commonly overlooked tax deductions. I'll reveal it in a second.
But let me say first that there are a bunch of tax deductions that most of us skip right over, and folks, they are money in your pocket:
* MILEAGE DEDUCTIONS. Sure, you might think to deduct the mileage for using your personal car for work, but you can also deduct mileage for your doctor, dental or hospital visits -- to and from the location!
You can also deduct your mileage and travel expenses for charitable events, including mission trips.
* EARNED INCOME TAX CREDIT. This one's a credit instead of a deduction. It's the earned income tax credit, instituted to take the edge off of Social Security taxes and to encourage working families. Married couples with kids miss this one all the time. A couple with three kids and an annual income less than $52,000 could score as much as a $6,000 credit on their taxes.
And now for the big one -- the one that 64,000 Tennessee tax-payers missed:
* STATE SALES TAX DEDUCTION. Yes, you can deduct the taxes you paid on the stuff you bought! It can be as much as a $2,000 deduction. The IRS makes it easy to claim it.
"You don't have to save all your receipts for the whole year and try to figure out how much sales tax you spent," said IRS spokesperson Dan Boone. "The IRS provides tables based on your income and your family size. That becomes your estimate of your sales tax, and that becomes your deduction."
There's a resource a lot of tax-payers miss every year, too: the IRS's FreeFile program. Depending on your income, you could have your taxes done for free from one of the agency's tax software contractors.
You can also seek free tax assistance from volunteers with the United Way of the Mid-South.

And after a series of gruelling flights across two continents and the vast Pacific Ocean he finally arrived in Perth, late in the evening on the first day of March, eager to begin his tour of Australia.
During his ten-day stay, Sri Chinmoy visited the major cities of Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne and Adelaide where he gave talks at universities, met with prominent Australians and recorded music for two LP albums. It was in Australia where he played the esraj for the first time on television and learned to play the Western flute. Read a day-by-day account of this historic tour…
Two Immortal Songs — Ami Jabo and Phire Chalo
At his first recitals in America and later at his Peace Concerts around the world, Sri Chinmoy would sing the plaintive, traditional Bengali song Phire Chalo. He would have heard it countless times in India and it was a melody he loved. In 1932, this song became famous throughout the entire sub-continent when it was sung by the blind singer K. C. Dey in the film 'Chandidasa'.
Fifty years later, in 1982, Sri Chinmoy based his song Ami Jabo upon the original melody of Phire Chalo and, by adding his own poetic lyrics, gave it a new life. Both songs are India's immortal gifts to the world. Read more, view videos and listen to the songs…
On January 30, 1987, Sri Chinmoy lifted a weight of 7,063¾ pounds using only his right-arm. It was an achievement that challenged the limits of human possibility and it shook the world of weightlifting.
Sri Chinmoy was not a professional weightlifter, and he was certainly not built for the task. At 5 feet 8 inches high and weighing only 162½ pounds, he was far from the imposing muscle-bound figure one would expect. And given his age of 55 years, he was a most unlikely person to be attempting to lift such massive weights. He was, however, a great spiritual master, a man of adamantine will who had absolute reliance upon God's Grace.
"If I ask my mind whether I can lift 7,000 pounds, immediately it will say, 'Impossible!' … But when I am in the heart, with the heart and for the heart, there is no such thing as impossibility because of the heart's oneness." — Sri Chinmoy (Excerpt from a 1993 press conference.) Read more...
Sri Chinmoy's lift of 7,063¾ pounds was not an easily won victory. Over a 19-month period, from June 26, 1985, when he first began serious weightlifting, Sri Chinmoy trained daily, performing multiple sessions of intensive strength-building exercises, enabling him to progressively lift heavier and heavier weights.
As each goal was reached, his determination increased. One lift in particular illustrates Sri Chinmoy's never-give-up philosophy — it took him 212 attempts before he finally succeeded in lifting a 303¼-pound dumbbell.
Sri Chinmoy's progress was nothing short of exponential. It was 17 gruelling months before he finally lifted more than 1,000 pounds. Then 2½ weeks later on November 27, 1986, he broke the 2,000 pound barrier, and on January 20, 1987, a lift of over 3,000 pounds was achieved.
Sri Chinmoy was the first spiritual master in history to directly challenge the inertia and inconscience of the material world through the discipline of weightlifting. His miracle lift of 7,063¾ pounds was, and will forever remain, a triumph of the spirit over matter.

"On the eve of the New Year, a new consciousness dawns on earth. God once again inspires each human being, each creature, with new hope, new light, new peace and new joy." — Sri Chinmoy
During his lifetime, Sri Chinmoy's annual New Year's Message became a tradition. Usually offered in conjunction with a public meditation or concert in the month of December, Sri Chinmoy would recite a special message for the coming New Year.
Here, for the first time, is the entire collection of New Year's Messages from 1966 to 2007, together with Sri Chinmoy's own comments, photographs from the public meditations, and songs composed. Read more...
CHRISTMAS: The Play of Universal Emotion
by Sri Chinmoy
Each year in the West, Sri Chinmoy observed the birth of Christ. His first Christmas in New York, in 1964, was celebrated at the home of his two American sponsors, Sam Spanier and Eric Hughes. (click photo). The following is an excerpt from 'CHRISTMAS: The Play of Universal Emotion' published in AUM Magazine in 1965.
"This is the day that unites near and far. This is the day that awakens the best in us, within and without. This is the Day of Eternal Bliss, from which the Past, Present and Future derive much significance of Existence. Christmas reveals to us a limitless ocean of Universal Joy. The waves of the suffering world dare not declare their existence." Read more...

Economic Trends
Fourth District Employment Conditions, October 2008The District's unemployment rate rose 0.1 percent, reaching 7.0 percent in October. The increase in the unemployment rate is attributed to increases in the number of people unemployed (2.2 percent) and a decrease in the number of people employed (−0.2 percent). The District's rate was again higher than the nation's (by 0.5 percentage point), as it has been since early 2004. Since this time last year, the District's unemployment rate has increased 1.5 percentage points, and the nation's has increased 1.7 percentage points.
There are considerable differences in unemployment rates across counties in the Fourth District. Of the 169 counties that make up the District, 42 had an unemployment rate below the national average in October, and 127 had a higher one. District counties reporting double–digit unemployment rates numbered 19, while only 1 county had an unemployment rate below 5.0 percent. Rural Appalachian counties continue to experience higher levels of unemployment, and those counties along the Ohio–Michigan border have begun to see more elevated rates of unemployment.
The distribution of unemployment rates across Fourth District counties ranges from 4.6 percent to 11.9 percent, with a median county unemployment rate of 7.5 percent. Counties in Fourth District West Virginia and Pennsylvania populate the lower half of the distribution, while 55 percent of Fourth District Kentucky counties and 60 percent of Ohio's counties are in the upper half of the distribution. These county–level patterns are reflected in statewide unemployment rates. The states of Ohio and Kentucky have unemployment rates of 7.3 and 6.8 percent, respectively, compared to Pennsylvania's 5.8 percent and West Virginia's 4.7 percent.

Avery in the hospital over the weekend :(December 15th, 2008
I think a lot of you already know, but Avery was put in the hospital over the weekend. I called his GI doctor on Friday because Avery was constipated and hadn't had a bowel movement in about a week. I had already given him an enema and some prune juice with no luck. The GI doctor told me to bring him in and they took an x-ray of his belly. Just like last time, Avery had a huge ball of poop stuck in his rectum. The doctor gave me a hospital grade enema kit with enough to do two enemas. He said to try that first but if it didn't work we would have to take him to the ER. He suggested we go to Texas Children's downtown instead of Conroe Regional or St Luke's in The Woodlands because if the enema didn't work Avery was going to need surgery. We went home and tried the enema using 300 cc's of water with no luck. We were pretty sure a second one wasn't going to work either but we wanted to try everything before taking him downtown. We waited about an hour and went ahead and used the second enema still with no luck. By this time Avery had 3 enemas, a glycerine suppository, and two bottles of prune juice over a 2 day period and was STILL constipated. We knew at this point our only option was going to Texas Children's for the surgery. So we got the kids taken care of, packed a bag, and headed downtown. We checked into the ER about 10pm Friday night and right away the doctors got busy. Usually when we go to Conroe or St Luke's the first thing they do is give Avery another enema even though I've told them I already tried that and it didn't work. The doctors at Texas Children's agreed that if we had already given Avery two 300 cc enemas before bringing him and they didn't work there was no need putting him through the pain of another one. I told them the GI doctor told us to come down for a deimpactment and they agreed that would be the best option for us. We had to wait until Saturday though and they didn't have any rooms ready for us at the time. That meant we had to stay in the ER all night. There was of course only one bed in the room for Avery so Jeremy and I slept on the concrete floor next to the bed until about 5 or 6 am when they were finally ready to admit Avery to the hospital and put him in a room. They came to get Avery for the deimpactment around noon on Saturday. By 1pm they were taking him back and about an hour later he was done with the procedure and a biopsy. When I told the ER doctors that this was the 4th time this year that Avery has been hospitalized for constipation they asked if he had ever been tested for Hirschsprung's disease. We've never even heard of it before much less had Avery tested for it. It's something they always test for in children or babies who have constipation problems like Avery. We decided to have Avery tested so the surgeon who did the deimpactment also did a biopsy. They remove a tiny piece of the intestine and look at it under a microscope to check for missing nerve cells called ganglion cells. We all have nerve cells in our intestines that help our muscles push things through our body. Children with Hirschsprung's disease don't have those cells in the lower part of the intestine so the muscles at the lower end don't work. That means Avery's muscles are pushing the poop out all the way until it gets to the end of the large intestine. At that point everything just stops and gets backed up after a while. If Avery tests positive for Hirschsprung's disease the only treatment is surgery. First they do a colostomy and then a pull through operation. That means they cut away the part of the intestine that is missing the ganglion cells and then take the "good" part of the intestine and pull it through and sew it to the rectum. It sounds like a pretty painful process that I'm hoping Avery doesn't have to go through but at the same time I hope the surgeon can give us some kind of explanation as to why Avery has lived almost his entire life with severe constipation. We have a follow up appointment with the surgeon on Wednesday to find out the results of the biopsy and then we have an appointment with the GI doctor in early January to find out our course of action if it's not Hirschsprung's disease. Wish us luck and I'll keep everyone updated.
Here's a picture of Avery taken over the weekend at Texas Children's. Isn't he just the cutest

If you've noticed that Billy Currington 's not quite as active on social media as some other country stars, he says it's no accident, partly due to his private nature. "I like [to keep] a little more to myself sometimes. More than others, I'm sure, but that's just me," he laughs.
Billy says he does enjoy Facebook, Twitter and Instagram -- just not as much as his manager wants him to. "I know people that I'm working with wish I was on it more. I hear that quite a bit, and that makes me not want to be a part of it sometimes," he confesses. "I like it, when I want to use it, I'll use it, and when I don't, I don't. "
This Saturday night, Billy plays Stockdale, Texas -- though he won't necessarily be tweeting about it.

See all 3 films in Richard Linklater's "Before" Trilogy on Sunday, January 5th - click here for info.
Nominated for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Comedy or Musical (Julie Delpy) at the 2014 Golden Globe Awards and for Best Screenplay and Best Female Lead at the 2014 Film Independent Spirit Awards!
"Bittersweet, intelligently written, deftly acted and painfully honest." – Claudia Puig, USA Today
"One of the best films of 2013 and the irresistible climax to Richard Linklater's trilogy of on-the-run amour." -Peter Howell, Toronto Star
"NYT Critics Pick! Before Midnight is a wonderful paradox: a movie passionately committed to the ideal of imperfection that is itself very close to perfect." – AO Scott, New York Times
Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Celine (Julie Delpy) first met in their twenties in Before Sunrise, reunited in their thirties in Before Sunset, and now, in director/co-writer Richard Linklater's Before Midnight, they face the past, present and future. Jesse's a successful novelist, and they're in Greece at a writer's retreat, staying in the bucolic country villa of an older expat writer, Patrick (Walter Lassally). As a treat, their Greek friends have gifted Jesse and Celine with a night at a luxurious seaside hotel while they babysit their young twin daughters Ella and Nina (Jennifer and Charlotte Prior). Feeling the undercurrent of friction between them, Celine wants to beg off, but their friends insist. They set off on foot through the spectacular countryside, enjoying each other's company, talking, teasing, debating, flirting. But for Jesse and Celine, realities intrude: the weight of children, work, ambitions, disappointments and the strains of an evolving, deepening relationship. Their idyllic night tests them in unexpected ways, and before the clock strikes midnight, their story again unfolds. (Richard Linklater, 2013, USA, 109 mins., Rated R, Sony Pictures Classics) Digital

Goodness there is a lot of talk about cloud computing. This 'talk and chatter' is part of the problem, i.e., we look at it, we prod it and we might even test it out – but do we get down to practical implementation, deployment and (if you happen to be a fan of the term) actual cloud 'rollout' today? Cloud offers the promise of a new era they say – and a new style of IT at that. But this again is the problem and we know that cloud can only deliver on the promises it makes if it is part of a well...
