Kissimmee Hotel Rental Photos and Description
1 Bedroom, 1 Bath, Sleeps 4
The studio is situated in The Baymont Inn & Suites resort, just off the US192, less than 1 mile from Walt Disney World. As it is less than 3 miles away from the highway Interstate 4 (I4), it also offers great access to other theme parks like Universal Studios and Sea World, plus the many, world's best golf courses in Central Florida. There are supermarkets and dining nearby too. This studio offers free high-speed internet (Wi-Fi) plus free local and long-distance calling.
The studio has been furnished to a very good standard. It has 2 comfortable Queen Beds with a night stand in the middle. There is a large 42 inch flat screen plasma TV for some late night watching (includes HBO channel). Great for unwinding after those long days out, before you lay your head to rest to recharge for the next day of enjoying all the great things Central Florida has to offer.
Adjacent to the sleeping area there is a wash area with vanity, large mirror and hair dryer, separate from the bathroom with shower and toilet.
The small kitchenette is well fitted. It has a coffee maker, sink, microwave and mini-refrigerator.
On the resort premises you will find the heated outdoor pool. There is a kids' pool for our youngest guests, plus a sand volleyball court, exercise room and relaxing Cabana pool bar for everyone.
The studio is located on the third floor. It is air conditioned for those very hot days and has reverse air for the few colder days. All linens are provided and iron and iron board are present too. Coin operated laundry facilities are on the premises. Please note that housekeeping service is NOT offered during your stay in this privately owned and operated hotel room.

On the same resort we offer three other studios for rent, two on the 3rd floor and another one on the 2nd floor.
As Excellent Vacation Homes is the local management company looking after this property 365 days a year, any technical or other issue is usually prevented before it even gets a chance to develop. But, our 24-hour cover service is always available should you require it during your stay.

Questions & Answers
"Hello, what is the weight capacity?" asked by Alan
POLYWOOD® Rocker Rocking Chair
As advertised.
Anne from Auburn, AL– Verified Buyer
I'm giving this a four instead of a five just because I prefer using it a while before passing final judgement although I'm satisfied with the product. Assembly was pretty easy although one set of the screws required me to use my own tools instead of what they provided due to the angle needed for screwing it in. Chair is sturdy and satisfyingly heavy. It is comfortable enough but I will likely put a cushion in it.
Sturdy and Good-looking
K from Sparta, IL– Verified Buyer
A bit overpriced and went on backorder for weeks before it finally shipped. But it is sturdy and looks nice like the rest of my Polywood pieces.
Akirondack Rocker and Tables
Tami from Fresno, CA
I love my new rockers and tables. They were delivered promptly. They were very easy to put together. They are well built and strong. They have been rained on a few times and wipe up very nicely. They cirlce around my firepit on the patio. I was able to find some awesome cushions for them that help add to their color. I would difinately order this brand again.

Eminem will publish his memoirs in a new book, 'Eminem: The Way I Am'
Eminem and publishing house Orion Books are set to release a new book featuring never before seen photos, journal notes, hand drawn illustrations and lyrics from the rapper.
Ian Preece of Orion Books is claiming that the publishing of the book will be a huge literary event.
"Everyone has their own take on Eminem" , he said in a statement.
"Because of where he is from, people think they know where he is at, what kind of person he really is. This book cuts through all that and gets to the source. It has an edge. It'll be one of the books of the year."

A former Research and Collections Officer of The Memory Project Archive, Marie-Eve Vaillancourt-Deleris relocated to Courseulles-sur-Mer, France in 2010, to work as the Program Manger of the Juno Beach Centre.
Marie-Eve recently sent over an update on life at the Juno Beach Centre in the Fall of 2011, including the exciting discovery of a new German tunnels and bunkers located not far from the Centre. Here is Marie-Eve, inside the tunnels, which has been covered for 60 some years.
Marie-Eve described the importance of this discovery:
"In the 1950's local teenagers used to hang out in these tunnels or vestiges, which are part of former Nazi defence lines. The tunnels used to be accessible, but being located to close to the sea, over the years these tunnels naturally filled up with sand. It was through a stroke of luck that the brother of the Centre's Director remembered the approximate location of the opening to the tunnel and the crew were able to dig out the sand for a day of shooting. Which reiterates the importance of sharing stories and experiences from one generation to the next. If we loose one generation's knowledge of these things, history can slip into the sand forever."
After a studious visit of the museum, the solemn discovery of a German Bunker and Juno Beach, young visitors to the Centre let loose and show their energy!
Additional articles on life at the Juno Beach Centre are available over at the Laurier Centre for Military Strategic and Disarmaments Studies website.

A stock even Apple might envy
Missed your chance to buy Apple before it went parabolic? Don't fret. Here's a company that will ride the iPhone wave.
By Ian Wyatt, Top Stock Insights
For those who wish they had bought Apple (AAPL) a year ago, we suggest you now consider Avago (AVGO), a well-established company that operates in two strong sectors that we like -- smartphones and network expansion
Last year, the company bolstered its customer base when it achieved big contract wins with Apple, which tapped Avago to build custom technology for the iPhone 4.
Avago delivered that technology with the ACPM-7181 -- a unique and valuable part of the iPhone 4S. This custom device merged the functionality previously implemented by three components.
Avago's team achieved parts reduction by developing a custom pressure application measurement that can support 2G and 3G cellular technologies across multiple bands. Its key design win in the iPhone last year could make it a prime choice for future iPads and the iPhone 5.
While the industry's future opportunity is huge, Avago's financials are already firing on all cylinders. Revenue was $2.3 billion for 2011, an increase of 12% from $2.1 billion in 2010. They also achieved record operating income, record total assets and paid their debt down to zero. The record profit and no debt are essential to future growth, and will enable management to continue their generous cash dividend.
Along with sturdy financials, Avago is one of the more shareholder-friendly names in high-growth tech. Not only does Avago pay a 1.5% dividend, it has increased the payout during the past two years. And management declared a 13-cent dividend in March of this year.
Avago paid a 12-cent quarterly cash dividend last year, and it frequently buys back its shares, which is essentially another form of repayment to shareholders. A buyback doesn't grant the shareholder more cash, but it does support the stock by decreasing shares outstanding.
Recently, the board of directors authorized another repurchase of up to 15 million shares, or about 6.3% of total shares outstanding. This was a continuation of a share purchase program from last year. What's more interesting is that management did most of their share buying when the stock was at $33.66.
Analysts expect Avago to earn $2.48 per share in 2012 and $2.88 in 2013. Based on those two estimates, the stock trades at 13.8 times current and 12 times forward earnings per share (EPS). The historical price-to-earnings ratio for Avago is a tad under 16. If we apply that multiple to forward EPS, the result is a $46 price target.
Currently, 16 analysts follow the stock, and 14 have a "buy" rating with a median target price of $42. The average of the two is $44, and that is our price target. But even that seems low.
I added Avago to the Top Stock Insights portfolio because of its value and its exposure to the secular growth in the wireless space -- and the potential to win design contracts for future iPhones and iPads. We are looking for explosive gains into 2013.

Laura P. said:
I find the storyline/outcome of this novel, like Picoult's others, easy to predict. Many of her stories are right out of the news. I find myself getting a little impatient sometimes wishing she could get on with the story. However, you don't read this author for the plotlines. Where she excels is in the human part of the stories. I can't think of another contemporary author who delves as deeply into human feelings and relationships as Picoult.

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is giving $350 million to alma mater Johns Hopkins University, increasing his lifetime giving the university past $1 billion.
University officials say Bloomberg is now the first person to give more than $1 billion to a single U.S. university.
$250 million will go toward a variety of cross-disciplinary subjects, including research on water resources, health care, global health, the science of learning and urban revitalization. The remaining $100 million will go to need-based financial aid for undergraduate students, awarding 2,600 Bloomberg scholarships in the next 10 years.
"Johns Hopkins University has been an important part of my life since I first set foot on campus more than five decades ago," Bloomberg said in a statement released by the university. "Each dollar I have given has been well-spent improving the institution and, just as importantly, making its education available to students who might otherwise not be able to afford it."
Bloomberg, a 1964 graduate, has remained closely involved with the university, including stints on its board of trustees from 1996 to 2002 and as chairman of Johns Hopkins Initiative fundraising campaign.
He made a past gift of $120 million toward the construction of a children's section at The John Hopkins Hospital in honor of his late mother.

"Gaggia Espresso Machines and Coffee Grinders; Constantly evolving tradition…"
Italian pioneer Achille Gaggia has been hailed as the Father of the Modern Espresso Machine. He invented the first lever piston espresso machine in 1948, forever changing the world of espresso brewing.
He was driven by passion and inspiration, and the current developers at Gaggia are no different. Their dedication to their craft has allowed the renowned Gaggia name to dominate the market and retain its position as the number 1 manufacturer of home espresso machines in Italy.
With its well known history of invention, Gaggia has perfected all of its espresso machines including Super Automatics such as the Gaggia Titanium and the New Gaggia Platinum series and semi-automatics such as the Gaggia Classic and the Gaggia Baby Twin.

Betts too good to trade; Red Sox won't "enable" Middlebrooks
A good night for Boston Red Sox rookies Wednesday at Fenway Park, with Mookie Betts continuing to lead off. Meanwhile, another one-time sensation continues to be unavailable. Boston started seven rookies in its 11-3 win over the Rays. That's the most rookies to start a game for the Red Sox in 43 years. The seven: Pitcher Anthony Ranaudo: 7 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 2 K (no home […]Continue Reading

Buchholz, Betts on; Owens off
So Mookie Betts is not done with second base, after all. The Red Sox have been trying (successfully) to get Mookie Betts comfortable in the outfield, since they already have a second baseman. But with Dustin Pedroia done for the season after hand surgery, and with uber-utility player Brock Holt out with concussion-like symptoms, Boston manager John Farrell said that Betts will get playing time back at second base. Maybe […]Continue Reading

Another poor start for Workman; promoted Johnson solid
Brandon Workman (1-9) must be getting close to the bullpen. In his latest start Wednesday, Workman lasted 3 innings: 6 H, 6 R, 5 ER, 3 BB, 3 K. His ERA rose to 5.27 (5.47 as a starter). As we mentioned in our recent column, this is the time when the Red Sox are evaluating pitchers for next year. Workman has shined as a reliever in the past. That appears […]Continue Reading

Barnes may be RedSox best new pitcher; Pedroia out; Johnson promoted
BOSTON – In today's column we look at Boston's young pitchers trying to win games and influence people – namely the Red Sox front office and manager John Farrell. It's tryout ti me for the 2015 rotation. Anthony Ranaudo did not win Tuesday; nor was he influential: 3 1/3 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 2 BB, 2 K. Matt Barnes lasted almost as long in relief: 3 Ip, 3 H, 0 […]Continue Reading

Sea Dogs done; a Wright idea
The Portland Sea Dogs' season came to a close Sunday in an 8-5 loss to Binghamton in the Eastern League playoffs. Much was made of all the talent that was promoted from Portland during the year (see today's story) and one of the last to leave the Sea Dogs maybe hurt the most. When starter Keith Couch was sent to Pawtucket right before the playoffs began, the Portland rotation lost […]Continue Reading

With Castillo playing with Sea Dogs, the odds are ever in their favor
One baseball game does not make a career. And too often when a baseball player is hyped and then has a bad game (or even a bad at-bat), the doomsayers come out. Likewise, a good game can turn into unrealistic expectations. A big contract can do the same thing. So Red Sox fans expect big things from outfielder Rusney Castillo, who just signed a $72.5-million deal with Boston. Castillo went […]Continue Reading

Sea Dogs (with Castillo) back at Hadlock; Koji shutdown?
After tying their best-of-five series at 1-1, with a 7-0 victory in Binghamton, the Portland Sea Dogs will play at least two more games at Hadlock Field, tonight and Saturday, both at 6 p.m. If a Game 5 is needed, it will also be home, Sunday at 1 p.m. The Sea Dogs not only bring title hopes to their fans, they will bring along newly-signed Cuban outfielder Rusney Castillo, who […]Continue Reading

Big series (for Yankees); Castillo added to Sea Dogs playoff roster
When the Red Sox schedule is released, you always look to see where the Yankees series' are. Boston visit the Bronx for a three-game set today through Thursday. These are important games (for the Yankees). New York (70-65) is tied for fourth place with Cleveland in the Wild Card standings, four games back. The Red Sox? They're 60-77, tied with Minnesota for the fifth-worst record in baseball. Joe Kelly goes […]Continue Reading

Even as someone who could not distinguish between the Armadillo and Tailwhip tricks in action sports, I recognize the loss of the Dew Tour as a defeat for Utah.
The State of Sport just absorbed a crash.
The summer and winter versions of the Dew Tour, with events such as BMX bicycling and snowboarding, may play to a niche audience, but that following is growing steadily. A sports traditionalist like myself could only be impressed by the crowds these tour stops attracted in Salt Lake City and Snowbasin, the economics they drove and the exposure they brought to the state.
I'm in favor of anything that promotes Utah, and the Dew Tour did it like few undertakings ever have.
The irony is that the Dew Tour was staged and supported here as well or better than anywhere, yet a new strategy that trimmed the former seven-event calendar to three stops annually left out Utah in favor of these destinations: San Francisco; Breckenridge, Colo.; and Ocean City, Md.
The change of venues led Jeff Robbins, CEO of the Utah Sports Commission, to rationalize the state's loss by citing "a life cycle" in the world of action sports.
In other words, these dudes tend to move around.
Yet while there seemingly was nothing more the Sports Commission could have done to keep the Dew Tour, this is a setback. There's a reason Robbins consistently ranks high in The Tribune's annual listing of the 25 most influential people in Utah sports. He's succeeded in bringing major sporting events to Utah and creating attention for everything the state has to offer.
While many of us had never heard of a lot of those sports until the dirt started piling up inside and outside of EnergySolutions Arena, this stuff worked here. This is the reality of the sports-hosting business, then: If you're going to claim $75 million in economic benefits over five years, you have to live with some headlines that speak of a loss when they go away.
Any sport that features a "cash roll" as a signature move makes a dent, right?
Robbins and his staff continually are looking for what's next in sports, and they've managed to stay ahead of the curve. Undoubtedly, they will find replacements, and it's likely that the Dew Tour itself would recognize what it's missing and return to Utah in 2014.
Until then, a lot of imaginary seats and standing room will go unoccupied. The University of Utah's Pac-12 Conference affiliation brought thousands of football fans to Salt Lake City in 2011, but the Utes have only four home conference games this season. The United States Golf Association is staging a national tournament in Utah for the first time, but the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship at Soldier Hollow is not a major spectator event.
The Dew Tour brought 60,000 fans downtown over four days in 2010 and 44,000 to Snowbasin during a weekend in 2011. That's astounding. Beyond that, there's the value of television exposure that generally sends a positive message about Utah.
Add it it up, and losing the Dew Tour will undo a lot of the good that the Sports Commission has done around here. That's seemingly no fault of its own, just a function of NBC's decision and the vagaries of dealing with the action sports world.
For its next trick, the Dew Tour someday will spin and contort itself back to Utah. Until then, it will be missed, whether you know it or not.

Young Israel of Brighton Beach, a synagogue destroyed by Superstorm Sandy, officially reopened today.
"Our community is finally recovering from the devastation wreaked upon it by the winds and flood waters of Hurricane Sandy" said Rabbi Zaltzman, the synagogue's Rabbi. "The rededication marks the conclusion of a long construction project and its occurrence shortly after the first anniversary of that hurricane is nothing short of heartwarming."
In the 1970s a huge wave of Russian Jewish immigrants poured in from the Soviet Union to escape communism, thus giving Brighton Beach the name 'little Russia' or 'little Odessa.' The neighborhood became known throughout the world as having the largest concentration of Russian Jews in the U.S.

Movie Review: 'Bullet to the Head'
|Bullet to the Head
Starring: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Momoa, Sung Kang
Sylvester Stallone's career has always been somewhat of a punchline. Sure, he gave us Rocky, but he also gave us Over the Top, Stop or My Mom Will Shoot, Eye See You, Daylight…well you get the idea. Limited in his range as an actor, but always trying to demonstrate otherwise, Stallone, with a career that was only becoming more of a punchline, decided the best thing to do was to relive his past. That meant bringing back his two most iconic (well his only iconic) characters (Rocky and Rambo) from the past into the new Millennium. His gamble paid off, then paid off big time with his ode to 80's action glory.
And Stallone, just like Schwarzenegger, decided to push that nostalgia one step further with Bullet to the Head, a movie that, with a couple of minor character changes, could've been the sequel that maybe a few more people might be excited to see: Cobra 2. I wouldn't blame the guy if he had taken that route, hell If I was Stallone's agent, I might press for him to do that, because at least the audience would be somewhat familiar with the character. With Bullet to the Head, not only are you given a character that is nowhere near developed enough, you also have a movie that can't deliver on anything it advertises. Don't worry Sly, I don't blame you for this mess, your director and screenwriter let you down…and turned yet another one of your roles into a joke.
Stallone plays Jimmy Bobo, a hitman in New Orleans. But again, he's the good kind of Hollywood hitman: misunderstood, never kills women or children...blah blah blah, you know the rest of this character cliché. Jimmy and his partner are sent to a hotel to kill a man and after successfully completing the mission go to a bar to have drinks. Because really, what else are you going to do, go home and watch The Voice? But Jimmy's partner is killed by Keegan (Jason Momoa). Jimmy escapes death and set ups the only reason for inserting what ultimately become useless subplots for the movie, a battle between Jimmy and Keegan.
Now those useless subplots include a D.C cop Taylor Kwon (Sung Kang) who comes to New Orleans to investigate the murder of the man Jimmy and his partner killed earlier. He was a former disgraced D.C cop who had information on a local crime boss Morel (Adewale Akinnuoy-Agbaje). And with Jimmy going after Keegan, he and Kwon decide to partner up to seek revenge/answers to their respective problems. Jimmy also has a daughter, a tattoo artist, who takes a liking to Kwon.
The build up to the big climatic battle is littered with awkward exchanges between Jimmy and Kwon (with Kwon vowing to invoke the law and take down Jimmy), Jimmy and his daughter and pretty much anything involving Jimmy. Stallone's limited range as an actor doesn't allow him to be funny, which the character tries to pull off multiple times. Bullet to the Head could've easily been a 90 minute chase movie between Keegan and Jimmy. That actually might have worked out for the better. But someone, namely the screenwriter, had bigger aspirations than their talent level allowed.
And what about that being climatic fight that happens between Jimmy and Keegan? Well, it's pretty anti-climatic. Sure, it's shot decently enough, but it doesn't last long. Then comes a point in the movie where redemption for the movies mistakes might have happened: Kwon wanting to take down Jimmy. But the potential there quickly gets flushed down the toilet like everyone else involved with this movie. Walter Hill, a man who's made a great movie here and there, tackles this movie likes he's just here to collect a paycheck and could care less about crafting something decent using the strength of the story. Under different circumstances, Bullet to the Head has a chance to be pretty decent, but here it's just...well, it's no better than most of Stallone's other less than average films.

Will Coke get blamed for endangering Chinese consumers?
With two large American companies being investigated for health emergencies in China, the business environment there could be worsening.
By Daniel James Hayden IV, Benzinga Staff Writer
Investors may want to take note of a disturbing trend among Chinese officials, who lately seem more interested in blaming American parent companies for health emergencies. In September, Chinese authorities said American battery manufacturer Johnson Controls (JCI) was responsible for a number of lead poisoning cases in Shanghai.
Now they are investigating none other than Coca-Cola (KO) for selling milk products that allegedly caused the death of a young boy and sickened his mother in the city of Changchun, the capital of Jilin province.
According to China Daily, the father of the boy said that his wife and son fell sick shortly after drinking a bottle of Minute Maid strawberry-flavored milk. The boy died after being rushed to the hospital with his mother by ambulance. The mother fell into a coma before gaining consciousness.
Authorities reportedly said they found traces of pesticides in bottles of strawberry-flavored milk consumed by the boy, his mother and two other people sickened in a separate incident.
A Coca-Cola spokeswoman said the company tested samples from the same batch the boy and his mother drank from and found them safe for human consumption. However, the company has agreed to remove the product from store shelves as further investigations are carried out.
It's easy to target a famous American company. But if the milk product was contaminated, it's much more likely that one of Coca-Cola's Chinese suppliers is responsible. Chinese milk producers have a horrible safety record and have gone so far as to attempt to cover up unsafe milk products that sickened thousands of Chinese babies.
Chinese milk producers have added chemical additives intended to fool regulators into thinking the milk contains more protein than it actually does. Despite this, dairy producers have been successful in getting weaker safety regulations passed that are weaker than international standards and even lower than the previous Chinese standards that proved unsuccessful in protecting consumers.
Now, the same authorities that failed to protect consumers from Chinese dairy producers in the past seem to be targeting the world's most famous soft-drink maker, which also has a great safety record. It's still unclear whether or not Chinese authorities are even investigating Coca-Cola's Chinese suppliers.
Chinese regulators are also accusing American battery manufacturer Johnson Controls of business practices that have caused lead poisoning in a number of children near its battery manufacturing plant. Johnson Controls is still under investigation by regulators despite the fact that an investigation by the China Electric Equipment Industry Association found that a nearby waste recycling facility was the source of the high lead levels. The company's Shanghai manufacturing plant was also named a national model enterprise for occupational health and safety.
The accusations against Coca-Cola shouldn't be taken lightly. Cases like these can result in the death penalty in China. It must be disturbing for foreign businesses operating in China to watch as two well-regarded international companies fall under investigation for safety problems that are most likely caused by local companies. The business environment in China is often difficult for foreign companies, but now it could be getting worse.
Neither Benzinga nor its staff offer investment advice, nor do they recommend that you buy, sell, or hold any security.
More from Benzinga:
Does anyone remember the incidents in the past ten years of moldy, contaminaed dry wall coming from China? or...tainted dog food, coming from China? ...or melemine contaminated baby formula coming from China?...
I do...
and just for the record, it has been successive REPUBLICAN administrations who have repeatedly pulled out the China credit card - most notably Bush 41, and of coarse, his destroy the United States by whatever means available son W, who put the debt to China on steroids to avoid making the 1% pay for his illegally manufactured war in Iraq...
No one can accuse the Chinese of not knowing how to conduct underhanded business techniques. They will go the last mile to make sure that no one know's it's their local suppliers that are tainted and not producing safe product.
This will eventually be a downturn for Chinese business, in that a communist country still has communist ideas on how to be capatilst. "Tell them anything, who cares, we're the government".

LA JOYA — The La Joya Independent School District discussed their 2009 Financial Integrity Rating at a recent board meeting.
The rating system was developed in 2000 and has 21 standards for evaluating a school district's financial condition. The standards assess the fund balance, asset balance, debts, when reports were filed, clean audit, tax collection rate, district's academic rating, expenditures per student, cash, investments, administrative costs, ratio of students to teachers, earnings, and other financial related issues.
LJISD received a superior achievement rating for the year ending Aug. 31, 2009.
The school board also discussed their plan to improve the academic rating of Evangelina Garza Elementary. Garza Elementary is the only school in the district that received an unacceptable rating because of test scores.
Principal Jose Garcia presented a plan that includes targeting reading and math. The goal is to not just meet the requirements needed for an accepted campus, but receive a recognized or exemplary status, he said.
Personnel at the school are working with a Texas Education Agency who suggested the school target reading, but since the math scores were low as well, math will be included.
Last year the school scored a 58 in reading and a 56 in math. To reach an acceptable rating, the school district needed a 70 in reading and a 60 in math. This year, the acceptable score is 65 for math.
Maggie Palacios, a TEA representative, and Garcia are working with each other and with the teachers at the school to make sure all needs are met and goals are achieved.
The school has set goals for the next two years, with an emphasis of reaching recognized status this year.
All reports and progress reports will be submitted to TEA. TEA will assess the progress or lack of and take further action if needed if there is no sustainable change or improvement.
The school board approved the plans presented by Palacios and Garza and board members said they want to make an effort in reaching the students that need the most help in achieving these goals.
Reading continues to be an issue for a number of LJISD students, according to a reading diagnostic test performed last year. There are still 225 seventh-graders who do not meet all reading goals. School board members Espie Ochoa, Irene Garcia and Superintendent Dr. Alda T. Benavides said they want to make sure intervention is taking place at the campuses to increase the reading skills of these students.

My Idiot0 Reviews
"They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Well, maybe hopelessness has the same effect..." *JOHNLOCK*
The brown haired man ripped off his scarf and jacket and tossed them on the floor, and began stalking back and forth across the living room. He was muttering, which occasionally escalated into yelling, about the idiocy of the police, and why couldn't they just let him do as he wished, and why must they always restrain his genius. Now, most people might find this sort of self absorbed raving a nuisance, but on the contrary I found it endearing, as I found anything that Sherlock did.
I still hated to admit to myself what I had done. I had fallen in love with my flatmate, one of the most unattainable men to ever exist. Actually THE most unattainable. I was pretty sure he hadn't felt anything even reminiscent of love in his entire life, or lust for that matter. It was a common theory that the man pacing the floor in front of me was asexual, and it killed me knowing that. Of course, no one really knew as no one wanted to broach the subject with said man. He would undoubtedly turn it around into some scathing remark aimed towards to the inquirer.
This did not stop or even hinder my feelings for the detective, however. If anything, it only made them grow further. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Well, maybe hopelessness has the same effect.
In that moment, watching the object of my affections rant and rave in front of me, I felt I could not contain myself much longer. I had been in the army, and had learned there how to contain my emotions, but even with that the floodgates were straining and ready to burst. To this day, I still do not know why I did what I did next. I got up out of my chair, grabbed Sherlock by the shoulders and spun him around, and did something I had promised I would never do. I confessed.
"Look Sherlock, I have something I need to say to you. And I know that you think you're above emotions, that you're too good for something so mundane. I know you're married to your work, I know you probably can never feel something as intense as raging fury or crushing sadness or beautiful love. I know its a miracle I even climbed so high in your mind to even be considered a friend. I know all of these things far too well, and I know that what I'm going to say next will probably ruin everything we've spent so long making, this carefully constructed relationship, but fuck it. Fuck it all.
"I've had enough of this guessing and wondering and self doubt and tearing myself to shreds over my own suspicions. Sherlock, I fucking love you. I love you, with your arrogance and your mess and your playing violin for days on end and your heads in the fridge. I love every inch of you, and even though you say you aren't a hero, you are the most amazing person I've ever met. And I know as soon as I shut up, you are going to reject me and crush my heart, but I don't care. I will still love you. I will always love you. And you may reject me, but you won't leave me. You need me. You've said it yourself, you'd be lost without your blogger. So go ahead, crush me with your emptiness and your inability to feel love. Because I'll still be standing right here."
After I had finished my speech, I stood there trying to re catch my breath and prepare myself for the inevitable rejection. But Sherlock did not respond to my confession. He simply stood and stared at me, a shell shocked expression on his face. For the first time since I had known him, he looked genuinely surprised, with jaw hanging open and eyes wide. He practically staggered backwards and collapsed into his favorite armchair, head hanging back limply.
"Sherlock?" I asked tentatively, "Are you alright?"
Sherlock's face slowly broke out into a large grin, and he jumped up and rushed towards me, a playful light in his eyes that I usually only saw when he had found a particularly interesting case. He didn't say anything, simply walked up to me, planted his hands on my shoulders and gave me the lightest of kisses.
"You really ought not fret so much, John," Sherlock breathed, his face impossibly close to mine, "Stress is really not good for you. God knows you already get enough of it living with me."
"So what are we now?" I asked, still unsure of his stance on what I had just revealed.
"We are whatever you want us to be," the tall, lean man in front of me responded, "I don't have much experience in this field, as it is I was only barely able to register my feelings towards you, and I am still wrestling with understanding them. I am handing over all control in this relationship."
I was surprised at that. Sherlock always claimed to know the answers, even when he was clueless, and I did not see why this situation might change that. Along the same lines, he never, and I meant never, let anyone else make his decisions for him. If you would try, you would be rewarded by a temper tantrum worthy of a four year old girl.For him to even consider letting me take control of something, I knew he had to mean what he was saying.
"Are you sure about this?" I nearly whispered, "I mean, you're always so detached from everything, never showing an ounce of emotion. What changed?"
"Nothing changed about me," Sherlock responded, "I just never had a reason to feel anything. I never had anybody to feel anything towards. This world is full of idiots, and none of them can stand being around me anyway. But you, John, you're different somehow."
"You've called me an idiot before though," I said, a smile on my face now.
"Yes," Sherlock chuckled, "But now you're my idiot."

Salisbury, MD. Are you ready for some action???? You can become part of the "Jamie Oliver Food Revolution" with these four easy steps:
1) Go to www.jamieoliver.com. Scroll down and click on "Sign the Petition" in one of the blocks on the right side of the page. Then click on "Jamie's Food Revolution" and fill in your name and e-mail. They will find you through your Facebook account or e-mail address and send you updates on how the "Revolution" is proceeding. You are now on your way to being an activist.....again!
2) Involve a child by having him/her help you shop and prepare a healthy meal that you can enjoy together. Even better, show a child where food really comes from. Even if you're not a veggie gardener, you can buy a packet of "quick and easy" seeds such as carrots, radishes, lettuce, spinach or kale and plant them in a large pot or in an empty space in the flower bed. If you are already a gardener, set aside a small section of your garden and introduce a child to the magic of a garden of his or her very own. There are so many miniatures these days: child size gardening gloves and tools, sun hats, small buckets and miniature fast maturing veggies. It can be a veritable treasure hunt for just the right product. Take pictures!! You are starting a fabulous journey that you will want to remember and talk about for years to come.
3) Make a personal pledge to gradually start making lifestyle and eating changes that will help you and your family become healthier. Start small with one little thing and mark it on your fitness calendar. Perhaps it's a ten minute walk when you get home. Whatever it is, be sure you try to do it every day. When you feel that it has is becoming a habit, add something else. Keep making those little changes and noting them on your calendar and, before you know it, you'll be on your way to a healthier you and a healthier family.
4) Toss out that drawer full of sugar laden dessert recipes that you've been collecting and start collecting good-for-you recipes. If you're having a little difficulty getting yourself and your pantry on the right track, the Gardening Grannies suggest you get off your rockers and into your local bookstore and thumb through Alice Waters' cookbook titled "In the Green Kitchen". You might remember Alice. She is a chef, author, proprietor of Chez Panisse and the woman instrumental in getting the organic veggie garden into the White House lawn. Her book will help you get the basics right and the rest will become amazingly easy!
The Gardening Grannies are a group of avid and Master Gardeners who live, love and garden on the Delmarva Peninsula. They can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

VERMILLION, S.D. (KWSN)—The start time to Saturday's women's basketball game between South Dakota and Cleveland State has been pushed back to 6:30 p.m. The women's game will follow the men's basketball game between South Dakota and Iowa Wesleyan which will tip off at 4:15 p.m. Both contests will be held inside the DakotaDome.
The change (the women were originally scheduled for 2 p.m.) provides Cleveland State extra time to travel to Vermillion through weather conditions that are making air travel difficult.

By Megan Canterbury / Tucson News Now intern
TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) – Arizona families seeking better education options for their children have two days left to apply for an Empowerment Scholarship Account.
The Department of Education is accepting applications for the program until 3 p.m. on May 1.
The Empowerment Scholarship Account is a school choice program that gives parents the ability to choose the best education option for their child.
The scholarship was first created for special needs children and now includes children in "D" and "F" failing schools, foster and adoptive children and children of active-duty military families.
The Empowerment Scholarship is a private bank account that parents use for education expenses.
The State of Arizona also deposits a share of the child's education funding into the account, which parents can use to help pay for school tuition, online classes, tutoring, books, and other expenses.
Families can apply for the program at http://www.azed.gov/esa/applicants/.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12-months. Learn more. TheStreetRatings.com Analysis: TheStreet Quant Ratings rates Frontier Communications Corp Class B as a hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its expanding profit margins and notable return on equity. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including deteriorating net income, generally higher debt management risk and weak operating cash flow. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS CORP has exprienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. Stable earnings per share over the past year indicate the company has sound management over its earnings and share float. However, the consensus estimates suggest that there will be an upward trend in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS CORP's EPS of $0.14 remained unchanged from the prior years' EPS of $0.14. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($0.23 versus $0.14).
- FTR, with its decline in revenue, slightly underperformed the industry average of 2.8%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 5.4%. The declining revenue appears to have seeped down to the company's bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.
- Although FTR's debt-to-equity ratio of 2.07 is very high, it is currently less than that of the industry average. Along with the unfavorable debt-to-equity ratio, FTR maintains a poor quick ratio of 0.91, which illustrates the inability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Diversified Telecommunication Services industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 313.8% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $17.99 million to -$38.46 million.

Monaco and Holiday Rambler RV's will no longer be produced in Wakarusa. Navistar is selling its RV business to Allied Specialty Vehicles, which is moving production to Decatur. That's potentially 800 jobs on the line. This also comes a year after Utilimaster announced it was leaving town.
People in Downtown Wakarusa told us this isn't a good thing. Karen Hundt said, "here we go again." Hundt has been working at the Shortstop Inn in Wakarusa for years. She's sad to hear production of Monaco and Holiday Ramblers will be rolling out of town. "It's so hard for us, that's our lunch crowd," said Hundt.
And she's not just upset about the potential loss of business but also for the employees who have become her friends. "A lot of those people have been coming in for 20 years...you work all those years in a factory you think you're gonna retire," said Hundt.
Mac McNally, co-owner of the Wakarusa Dime store, also has sympathy for the employees. "anytime a place closes and people lose jobs it's really not a good situation." But he doesn't for see much changing for his store. "As for direct impact on our business I don't think it's gonna have much," said McNally.
There's no doubt thought that things will be changing at the Monaco and Holiday Rambler facility. Jim Meyer, the Chief Operating Officer of the new owner, Allied Specialty Vehicles, said, "the business as it is out of this manufacturing footprint is just not sustainable." He said that's why they're moving to Decatur, that's where they already produce two brands of RV's. "A great day and great future for Monaco and Holiday Rambler the company...it's also a pretty tough day for the employees," said Meyer.
Meyer said about 800 people currently work in the building in Wakarusa. "We'd love to keep everybody employed either here with a new owner or in one of our other companies," said Meyer. He said they are planning on selling the facility in Wakarusa to another manufacturer. McNally remains optimistic about that. "Change sometimes makes things better."
But Hundt says even with a potential new owner there will be a noticeable transition period. "It just takes time. Three, four years."
A meeting was held Thursday morning with all employees in Wakarusa. Friday they will start individual meetings to talk specifics about the future.
Allied Specialty Vehicles will continue production in Wakarusa through August but they are winding down production there so they will not be taking any new orders.

6. Screening (screening for CRE bacterial strains in patients and in high acuity areas, for example, Intensive care units and Isolation rooms used for patients with infections)
The CDC further recommends that patients identified with CRE infections should be bathed with 2% chlorhexidine and that areas that house or treat CRE infected patients undergo strict decontamination treatments. Instruments that may be in contact or used to diagnose or treat CRE infected patients should also undergo rigorous decontamination.
We humans have many dangerous microbial enemies; many researchers and health care professionals think CRE bacteria could be the first wave of many others. The CDC is giving guidance to healthcare workers about how we can possibly reduce or prevent a large scale outbreak of CRE bacteria; I agree with the CDC that suggests we humans act world-wide now before these bacteria spread and transfer their resistance to future bacterial populations.
