(shah-too-NUHF due Pahp) Southern Rhone's landmark region, Chateauneuf du Pape, was the first region to gain AC status in France. That was the 1920s - it's history goes much further back than that. As the name suggests, the wine region was named after the new papal home, referring to the period of time in the 1300's when the pope resided in Avignon instead of Rome.

The early settlers of Howey-in-the-Hills found wonderous natural beauty in the shade and shadows of mature oaks, pines and palms. At Mission Inn, we honor these founders with the historic El Campéon Course and its 85 feet of elevation changes - testing you like no other course in Florida. You will also note our dedication as you play through the wide-open fairways and gentle rolling hills of the Las Colinas Course. These two courses were designed with an appreciation of their natural environment. You revere it in the sparkle of the Florida sun on ever-present ponds and creeks and in the sight of an osprey soaring overhead. The El Campéon and Las Colinas courses settle right in to the Old-Florida landscape.
These are no cookie-cutter courses.
Only 35 minutes from downtown Orlando, the courses at Mission Inn have earned their share of accolades from Golf Digest to Zagat.
And so we support our Orlando golf enthusiasts with amenities that matter to you. Take advantage of our full practice facility, golf academies and pro shop; relax in our clubhouse lounge, restaurant or spa. We have a hospitable staff ready to host you and knowledgeable PGA professionals waiting to help lower your score.
We also offer lodging, meeting services and endless activities on-property, including a marina on expansive Lake Harris. Mission Inn and Howey-in-the-Hills share a long, rich history. We sincerely hope you join us in the future of Mission Inn Golf.
At the core, it's our finesse with planning and hosting seamless, productive, memorable events. The proof is in the industry accolades we've earned, our client testimonials and attention to detail: more on all of that here.
But let's cut to the chase: You want to golf. After all, balancing work with play is just good business.
Mission Inn Resort gives you two distinct courses: historic El Campéon and inviting Las Colinas. Play them both and you won't play the same thing. For that matter, play them both and you won't play the same thing elsewhere in Florida. That's courtesy of El Campéon's dramatic 85-foot elevation change and Las Colinas' rolling terrain.
Randall Noonan, our friend and former golf pro, liked to say, "You may prefer one of our courses over the other. But either way, you're going to have a good time." You might even improve your game. Our full practice facility, Mission Inn Golf Academy and teaching pros can help you achieve that – ask us about planning a clinic for your group. (Speaking of pros, our full-service pro shop plans and hosts golf tournaments for groups year 'round. Ask us about that, too.)
Golfing aside, there are other perks golf group travelers appreciate about Mission Inn Resort: proximity to Orlando (our location 35 minutes northwest of the city gives you easy access to the Orlando International Airport, theme parks, shopping and endless possibilities for side-trips to surrounding small towns); Spa Marbella, where lounges, steam rooms and signature services cater to men, women and couples; a recreational array that can take you from playing tennis to walking nature trails to boating or fishing on Lake Harris; and accommodation choices ranging from executive suites to golf villas – all with a personal approach that comes with being a family-owned-and-operated business for close to 50 years.

Preheat the barbecue or broiler. Halve tomatoes, zucchinis, eggplants, and squashes lengthwise. Grill or broil vegetables until softened and lightly browned on both sides. Let cool.
Chop vegetables into small pieces, then toss them together in a large bowl. Mix in onion, turmeric, cumin, canola oil, orange juice, and salt to taste. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Serve on top of sliced, toasted whole-wheat bread.
This was so good, I made it twice this month. It's even good cold, or heated up in a tortilla. I also halved the recipe the second time, broiling the vegies in a toaster oven with the same great results.Reply
Yum! I've got whole wheat pita chips to go with this, too. The intro says it will last in the fridge up to four days. I wonder if we can eat it all that quickly... I think I'll try halving the recipe.Reply
how long do you reckon this would last in the fridge?Reply

When the Pittsburgh Penguins arrived in Philadelphia, they were the ones flying high on a 12-game win streak. Captain Sidney Crosby realized what was at stake, but assured Sam Kasan of the official Pens website that the team would be taking a practical approach – well, as practical as the long-standing rivalry between the two Pennsylvania cities would allow.
"You've got to find a way to win every game. I think that every game against Philadelphia is always intense, and I think there's always a little something extra, especially with where the two teams are right now. If it was possible to add anything to it, it would be now. So certainly, I think both teams have it out for one another and if you said that we marked this on the calendar, obviously it's the case for them as well," he said.
If anyone would be able to knock the Penguins out of the air, it would be the Flyers. Although the "Broad Street Bullies" are widely known for their tough, physical style of play and habitual fighting, they are even more of a threat when they keep their gloves on. Now with a record of 20-7-5, they are sitting in the number one spot for the Atlantic Division, Eastern Conference, and the league overall, having knocked the Pens down to second place in their 3-2 victory.
Evgeni Malkin, who sat out the last four games due to a knee injury, returned tonight and played on Crosby's wing in the absence of Chris Kunitz.
"It was a little tough to come back," he told the press in the locker room. "The team won twelve games before and I was a little nervous before the game. I'll try to play better and help my team."
Although he feels down about his performance, Malkin looked great on the ice, scoring two power play goals.
What cost the Penguins this game is clear. Out of the 12 penalties handed out, they took seven. While their penalty kill is strong, it could not withstand the constant offensive pressure applied by the Flyers, and Scott Hartnell scored the game-winning goal on a power play. Penalties do not have to change the score to have a negative affect on a team.
"We spent a lot of energy killing penalties against dangerous guys; also it took our team away from trying to get to the offensive zone and mount any kind of pressure and any kind of shot traffic at the goaltender, so it took away from us in the third period," Head Coach Dan Bylsma told reporters after the game.
The Flyers played a smart game and kept their defense tight, thwarting any decent scoring chances the Pens managed to generate.
For the Pens' fans, root canal might be preferable to watching a win streak end at the hands of bitter rivals. Even worse is the fact that they didn't pummel their way to the win as many might have expected. They simply played a better game.
"In the first period in particular, Philadelphia dictated the pace and the play, especially the first ten, twelve minutes of the game," Bylsma said.
They held onto that control by applying pressure at both ends and maintaining a physical presence without going overboard. Frequent penalties against Pittsburgh allowed them to develop an unstoppable momentum.
The team might have taken this loss a little harder than others, but Crosby insists that it's no worse than any other.
"You never like losing. Just because we won twelve doesn't change the feeling and it never will. You go out there and work hard. You have an objective in mind, to win the game. When you don't it's not a good feeling," he said.
The Penguins, however, will be ready for action again tomorrow when they take on the New York Rangers. Tomorrow night also marks the debut of "24/7 Penguins/Capitals: Road to the Winter Classic" at 10 p.m. on HBO.

Is enculturation is a good thing or a bad thing in terms of individuality and freedom of expression?
I am a student in a grad school in New York City and recently came across the concept of Enculturation. Coming from India, a country that is rich in culture and has strictly defined 'rules' in society in terms of acceptable behavior and habits I was forced to question if enculturation has more positive or negative impact on a individual when it comes down to developing a sense of individuality and freedom to express opinions.

Dear Mr. Baker,
Recently I viewed some contemporary dramatic interpretations of Shakespeare including "MacBeth" with Sir Patrick Stewart and "Hamlet" with David Tennant.
If you have viewed any "modern" interpretations of any of Shakespeare's plays, what is your impression of presenting his plays in a more contemporary setting?
Thank you,
Marian (donnarose)

Four years ago last month I covered my first Maryland football Signing Day for The Baltimore Sun. There wasn't a consensus opinion on the Terps' 2008 recruiting class -- Rivals.com ranked it the No. 38 group in the country, while Scout.com had it listed as the 52nd-best class nationally. So how did Maryland's 2008 group ultimately stack up? Today we'll revisit my 2008 superlatives for defense and find out. Click here for a look at the offensive players.
Most wanted: Given to the most heavily recruited Maryland commitment
Who I picked: Masengo Kabongo – Fairfield (Conn.) Prep, defensive tackle
Who it should've been: Kabongo
Why: As I wrote two weeks ago, this is a superlative based solely on offers. At the time, Kabongo had the most high-level options, so he remains the pick here. Certainly, Maryland wasn't the only school that missed the mark on Kabongo, who picked the Terps over Colorado, Illinois, North Carolina State, Syracuse and UConn. After pledging to Maryland in August 2007, several schools continued to recruit the Congo native, including Boston College, Florida, Illinois, Miami, Oregon, Penn State, Purdue and Virginia. A four-star prospect, Kabongo appeared in six games as a redshirt freshman and transferred to Stony Brook before his sophomore season. He played in just three games last fall for the Seawolves, contributing two tackles.
Most likely to contribute early: Given to the recruit most likely to see the field as a true freshman
Who I picked: Demetrius Hartsfield -- Southeast Raleigh (N.C.) Magnet High School, linebacker
Who it should've been: Cameron Chism – Bishop McNamara, cornerback
Why: Chism suited up in nine games as a reserve cornerback during his true freshman season. His seven special-teams tackles in 2008 – all of which came on kickoff return – tied for second on the team. Chism was a fixture in the Terps' starting lineup over the next three seasons, starting 32 games and appearing in 44. In Maryland's season opener against Miami on Labor Day 2011, Chism returned a crucial interception for a touchdown that propelled the Terps to victory. By the end of Chism's senior season, however, he had been supplanted by fellow senior Trenton Hughes. Chism did not appear in the last game of Maryland's season – a 56-41 loss to North Carolina State. Chism, who finished his Terps career with 191 tackles, 16 pass breakups and seven interceptions, played in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl and is ranked by NFLDraftScout.com as the No. 47 cornerback available in April's draft.
Most likely to be a multi-year starter: Self-explanatory -- this recruit has all-conference potential.
Who I picked: Chism
Who it should've been: Hartsfield
Why: Ever since his redshirt freshman season, Hartsfield has been a mainstay in Maryland's starting lineup. A three-star prospect according to Rivals.com, Hartsfield appeared in 10 games in 2009 at the WILL linebacker spot, finishing the year with 64 tackles and 3.5 sacks. One year later, Hartsfield started all 13 games at the WILL, recording 88 tackles for the Military Bowl champions. Despite missing three games as a junior with an injury, Hartsfield led the Terps with 108 tackles, including seven tackles for loss and one sack. For his efforts, Hartsfield was named honorable mention All-ACC. He'll be expected to lead the Maryland linebacker corps one last time this fall.
Most likely to overachieve: Given to the overlooked recruit that exceeded expectations during the high school season.
Who I picked: Eteyen Edet -- Fort Washington Friendly, linebacker
Who it should've been: Edet?
Why: Since I wrote this as more of a high school-based award, Edet still fits the bill as an athletic but unknown two-star who burst onto the Terps' recruiting radar after his 110-tackle senior season at Friendly. Of course, Edet never got the chance to overachieve in College Park. After missing NCAA qualifying standards, the linebacker headed to Milford Academy in New York for a prep year. Edet's stay at Milford lasted less than a month, but soon after he turned up at North Carolina Tech in Charlotte. Maryland quickly cut ties with Edet, who later did a stint at North Carolina A&T. According to his Facebook page, Edet now lives in Los Angeles.
Most underrated: Given to the recruit with the best chance at making his recruiting ranking look silly four years from now.
Who I picked: Zach Kerr -- Quince Orchard, defensive tackle

Socialite Paris Hilton has a warning for Lindsay Lohan – watch your back.
This after Lohan, 24, allegedly ordered a male friend to beat up Hilton's little brother, according to TMZ.com.
Lohan, visiting Miami Beach for Art Basel, allegedly ordered the attack after Barron Hilton reportedly bad mouthed her at a party at a private mansion where she was staying while in town.
Barron Hilton reportedly told police that Lohan and a male friend approached him at the party and she started screaming, "You talk sh*t about me to my boyfriend, this is what you get," according to TMZ.
A short time later, Lohan's male friend reportedly began to beat Hilton, according to the celebrity website.
On Saturday, Barron Hilton posted a photograph of his battered face on Instagram.
When Paris Hilton saw the picture, she posted online, "They both will pay for what they did. No one f***s with my family and gets away with it!!"
Lohan and her father have denied she had anything to do with the attack and said she had left the party before Barron Hilton was attacked.
Michael Lohan claims they have several witnesses who will back up their story, according to TMZ.com.
A video obtained by TMZ.com, however, seems to contradict their version of events: It shows Lohan sitting in an SUV being confronted by Hilton right after the attack.
On the video, Lohan can be heard saying she saw nothing and then taunting Hilton.
According to TMZ, Barron Hilton told the police he didn't know the name of the man who attacked him but he was sure that Lohan was behind it.
Miami Beach police could not be immediately reached for comment.

Purchasing boots 1/2 size larger than my foot size always has been my mantra, and this practice has served me most judiciously.
Feet swell when hiking and hikers always should wear thicker Merino wool socks that breathe and dissipate foot sweat.
Hikers always can accommodate for a slightly larger size boot; but there is no such accommodation to a hiker with a too small boot.
Additionally, alternating pairs of socks daily is much advisable, as each quality pair of socks affords different pressure points to the foot inside the shoe bed thus preventing blisters since the foot is never being pressured always at the same pressured area.
Quality socks are as important as the selection of a quality boot, and it troubles me that many hikers seem fixated solely on the boot when it may very well be that wearing a quality pair of cushioned and breathable pair of socks solves whatever boot problem they may be experiencing.
LLbeaner, do you want to depart from your friend of 20 years who has adjusted to your hiking style, or do you want to retain that friendship by simply purchasing a pair of high quality thick cushioned Merino wool socks?
Good hiking my friend (:
Jerry D
Few AT 2011 Thru-hikers used boots. Many boot users switched to trail shoes. I don't believe any switched to boots.
I was very happy with my trail runners. Tried many pairs till I found the one that fit the best. It wasn't the most expensive one. It was the one that fit my feet the best. Zero blisters. Still have my boots for use at home around the yard. Trail runners are for the tail, boots are not.
You can add an insert to take up some room and or wear sock liners to help wick the sweat away and prevent rubbing.
Hey guys, when I bought my llbean boots 20 years ago, they fit very snug but as time and hiking went on, they have loosened up quite a bit. I have to wear thicker socks to get a good fit. Should I buy a new pair or keep wearing the thicker socks because when my feet sweat in them my toes start to rub when hiking down steep trails.

Horror Film "You're Next" Needs to Release its Soundtrack…NOW!
Posted by Shamir Lee on 09/03 at 05:41 PM
It's been a while since I've seen a horror movie worth watching. The Purge was a blockbuster success this summer, but it didn't live up to the trailer. Sinister, released last year, started out promising, but ended on a disappointing note. The Conjuring, although received fairly well by critics and audiences, and breaking the record set by The Purge, was in my opinion, a bore-fest, as we like to call it in my house. So I wasn't expecting much from You're Next.
I saw it the weekend of August 23rd when it was released, and as with all horror films, I was excited, no matter how stupid I expected it to be. This time, the content lived up to, and even exceeded, the trailer. I was surprised by how entertaining it was. Using an unknown cast, mostly in their thirties, was a smart choice, as opposed to young, up-and-coming Abercrombie-esque actors to appeal to a younger audience. The cinematography suited the dark mood. The dark comedy was utilized well, making the blood and gore more easy to swallow. And as with most horror films, the female lead was a strong protagonist.
As much as I liked the movie, that's not what I'm here for. The soundtrack was supergalactic excellence. That's really the only way I can say it. I wasn't expecting such a unique mix of sounds. From the first scene, the music set the tone as a dark comedy. The contrast between light hearted instrumentals and brutal murders was done superbly. Even the trailer hinted at this characteristic of the film, using Lou Reed's "Perfect Day." Near the end of the film was when it really got interesting. Electronic music, with an 80s sound, flooded the scenes as the lead character started to get more in depth with her killing methods. I'm convinced it was the work of Power Glove, but I'm not sure. Unfortunately, I couldn't read the composers on the credits. On Wikipedia the sole composer is listed as Mads Heldtberg. A soundtrack is nowhere to be found. Not a single song from the film, besides "Perfect Day," is online. I've been searching for days, but to no avail. I'm becoming desperate. The soundtrack needs to be released now! It's one of the best I've heard, specifically from a horror film. If you haven't seen it and you're planning to see it, keep an ear open for the soundtrack. It will blow your mind.

TOWN OF AUBRUN, WI (WTAQ) - A trucking company in Fond du Lac is a total loss after a fire ripped through a storage building.

The owner of Brian Dreher Trucking in the Town of Auburn discovered the fire around 2:45 a.m. At this point the fire seems to have started in one of the five semi-trucks.
The blaze destroyed the semis, a small office, a large boat, truck parts and tools. Authorities say the fire doesn't look suspicious, but they continue to investigate.
Crews from 14 fire departments responded to the fire.

Most of our officers attend an accredited institution, such as a Maritime Academy or University, for their maritime training, usually for four to five years. This time is a combination of classroom instruction and time spent at sea. Officer's licenses are issued by their home countries, and each country has their own requirements and exams. Licenses are tied together internationally by licensing standards known as STCW (Standards for Certification, Training, and Watchkeeping). STCW is an IMO standard similar to SOLAS, only it's for training. While countries may have different systems, they all must comply with the Standards for Certification, Training, and Watchkeeping. Beyond licenses, each officer needs a license endorsement from the Flag State of where the ship is registered. The endorsement is an acknowledgment that the officer's national license is acceptable to the Flag State and meets all Standards for Certification, Training, and Watchkeeping requirements.
Besides the required training, we also send our officers to our company's required training. Examples of this are: Bridge Navigation Management (BRM), a navigation simulator course, a navigation system training course, or an equipment specific course, such as pod training.
There are usually two or three levels that lead up to a Master - Unlimited license ('Unlimited' means any size of ship). Each country requires specific amounts of sea service on specific sizes of ships in order to increase the license level. They may also require formal exams at each level.
The Captain is in charge of a ship however, we practice Bridge Resource Management (BRM) - and part of that is to encourage personnel on the bridge to question and when necessary, challenge the Captain.
Each ship has two dedicated Captains assigned to it. Each Captain alternates their time at the helm. If there is ever a time when a Captain is called away from the ship, the Staff Captain is fully trained and licensed to act as the Master of the vessel. Also, at any given time, we can have a few Officers who have also met all the requirements, including all of the required licensing and are ready to be Master Captains, but they continue as staff captains until a Captain position opens up.
Our Captains are typically selected and appointed from within our own fleet. They have to have a marine license (at the level of Master - Unlimited Tonnage) and most of our Captains have approximately 15 years of experience before promotion to Captain. There are also many various marine training courses and examinations that they are required to take throughout the course of their career as an Officer.
All of our Captains hold a Master - Unlimited license. On our ships, we require the Captain and the Staff Captain to hold a Master - Unlimited license. At any given time, we can have a few Officers who have met all the requirements and are ready to be Captains, but they continue as staff captains until a Captain position opens up. The final step in the process to be promoted to Captain is an interview with our shoreside leadership team. Most of our Captains have approximately 15 years of experience before they are promoted to Captain. Currently, each of our Captains has an average of 25 years of experience on the seas.
The cruise industry is a heavily regulated industry, and the safety of our guests and crew is always our highest priority.
The life saving crafts onboard our ships are tested once a month, which is over and above what is required, which is once every three months. During this test, the life saving crafts are lowered into the water and pulled away from the ship.
The number of life saving crafts varies depending on the class/size of ship. All of our ships have sufficient survival crafts for everyone on board, plus additional capacity in reserve, per regulatory requirements.
Yes. At full capacity, there would be a total of 8,460 persons onboard (with 6,360 of these being guests). All passengers are assigned to life saving crafts along with 12 crew members per life saving craft to assist with the launch, and to help guests. This also includes a life saving craft Commander and a 2nd Commander who are trained to international regulatory (SCTW) standards.
While the ship's officers and security team receive specialized training, every crew member must participate in safety and security training modules, so that they are prepared to respond quickly and effectively in the event of an emergency. We also conduct weekly, monthly and annual drills on all our ships, to train and prepare for response to a variety of potential situations. In addition, each of our vessels is equipped with advanced fire detection and suppression systems, and each ship has highly trained personnel onboard who can effectively respond to and manage a report of a fire.
Even though fire risk is minimal, fire suppression systems are installed throughout all areas of the vessel. The primary fire suppression system on most ships converts water into a mist state that presents more surface area for smoke and heat to be absorbed. Water mist systems are very effective and also safe for people who may be near them when they are activated. In areas such as engine spaces and galleys, we have installed both water mist and CO2 systems. In addition, we have gone Above and Beyond Compliance with regulations by installing foam systems in various technical areas and wet chemical extinguishers in all of our galleys, that are especially effective in the case of oil based fire.
Our ships are also equipped with an extensive series of fire sensors, which are monitored by crew members on the bridge and in the engine control rooms. If a fire detector indicates there may be a fire onboard, response personnel are immediately dispatched to the area to evaluate the situation. If indicated, mobile firefighting groups respond, outfitted with full firefighter gear, breathing apparatus and special heat-seeking systems that use thermal-imaging cameras. These cameras (both hand-held and helmet-mounted) help to quickly identify the source of a fire and to locate any people who may be in the affected area. Responding crew also have access to an Impulse Fire Extinguisher (IFEX), which shoots a blast of water using pressurized air and is ideal for rapid response in quickly suppressing a fire. With these tools, our highly trained personnel on the bridge and on the scene can manage fire-related situations effectively.
Although all of our vessels are equipped with advanced fire detection and suppression systems, fire safety really begins with prevention. Our ships are constructed and outfitted to comply with stringent international fire safety regulations, including requirements for fire integrity of bulkheads (walls) and windows and fixtures onboard (such as furniture and carpets). Our ships are inspected throughout construction by third-party safety inspectors from recognized classification societies and port state safety agencies like the U.S. Coast Guard.
If the main electrical power source is lost, we have plans for a contingency and we move to using the emergency generators. These are typically located on the upper decks and they have their own fuel supply and are completely independent. The generators can provide emergency lighting, operate elevators and even provide power to re-start the engines, if necessary. They can also power communication channels - radio, telefax, email, so the ship can continue to communicate with shoreside.
Each ship has alternate muster stations available throughout the ship and each crew member at all locations are trained in mustering procedures.
During the mustering process, trained crew with high visibility vests will be posted throughout the ship to assist guests with disabilities. In addition to posted personnel, specially trained crew teams are available to assist guests with special needs. In addition, if for any reason people cannot get to their designated muster/assembly station the Ship's emergency plan calls for crew to check every stateroom and space on the ship to ensure guests have made it to their assembly stations, and that if someone needs assistance to do so, it is provided.
The muster procedure, as part of the Youth Evacuation Program, will ensure that children are brought to the muster station where they would be reunited with their parents / guardians. This is also mentioned of this in the general muster drill announcement.
Guests that board the ship at a different port of call are provided with a "Guest Joining Downline" letter prior to departure from the port of embarkation. They also receive a verbal safety briefing in person prior to departure from their port of embarkation.
In case of larger groups (1% of total guest capacity), a muster drill is organized and conducted. The letter and briefing shall contain (as a minimum) the following information in English and other appropriate languages:
All of our ships' officers receive specialized training, and every crew member must participate in safety training modules so they are prepared to respond quickly and effectively in the unlikely event of an emergency. We also conduct weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual drills on all of our ships, to train and prepare our crew to respond to a variety of potential situations. In addition, each of our vessels is equipped with advanced fire detection and suppression systems, and every ship has highly trained personnel onboard who can effectively respond to and manage these systems.
Guests should not bring life jackets to the muster drill. In the unlikely event of an emergency, our procedures direct guests to precede directly to their muster stations upon hearing the emergency signal. This reduces the chance for cross-traffic and improves response time at muster stations, as guests do not need to return to their staterooms to retrieve their lifejackets if they are in another part of the ship at the time. Once a guest arrives at their muster station, a crew member will provide them with a life jacket. In the unlikely event of an emergency, one of the most important aspects is to account for all persons onboard, and this process facilitates that accountability. We also store additional life jackets at each muster station.

Announcements for the guest assembly drill are usually made in English. The announcements are also made in additional core languages when we have large numbers of guests onboard who do not speak English. On some sailings, announcements may be made in the language of the market, then followed by English and any other approved core language(s).
The International Convention of Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) regulatory guidelines require that a muster drill be held within 24 hours of embarkation. However, the muster drill for guests on any ship in our fleet is to be held prior to departure on embarkation day.
Muster drill is a mandatory exercise with the objective to familiarize all guests and crew with the location (muster station) where they are to assemble in the unlikely event of an emergency. During this drill, additional safety information (i.e., how to put on a life jacket) is presented.

Nicosia, Cyprus • Cypriot lawmakers were finalizing Friday a new plan they hope will raise enough money to qualify the country for a bailout package and help it avoid financial ruin next week.
Cyprus' president, Nicos Anastasiades, will travel to Brussels on Saturday to present the plan to the country's prospective creditors, its fellow eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund. There has been no indication yet that they will accept it.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
The package of nine laws was expected to be voted on in Parliament Friday night, three days after lawmakers decisively rejected a plan that would have seized up to 10 percent of people's bank deposits.
Cyprus has been told to raise 5.8 billion euros ($7.5 billion) to qualify for 10 billion euros ($12.9 billion) in rescue loans from the eurozone and the IMF.
The country faces a pressing Monday deadline, when the European Central Bank has said will stop provide emergency funding to the country's banks it a new plan is not in place. Without the ECB's support, Cypriot banks would collapse on Tuesday, pushing the country toward bankruptcy and a potential exit from the 17-country euro currency union.
But eurozone officials said they had still not seen all the details and would have to discuss whatever final plan Cyprus presents.
Government spokesman Christos Stylianides said there had been "consultations all day" with representatives of the IMF, European Central Bank and European Commission — collectively known as the troika — who monitor and vet adherence to bailout conditions.
Averof Neophytou, the deputy head of the governing DISY party, said "significant progress" had been achieved Friday after hours of haggling over a series of draft laws.
The three main bills include restructuring the country's second largest and most troubled bank, Laiki, and restricting some financial transactions once banks, which have been closed since Saturday, reopen on Tuesday.
The restructuring of Laiki and the sale of the toxic-laden Greek branches of Cypriot banks is expected to cut the amount the country needs to raise to about 3 billion euros instead of 5.8, Neophytou said.
Another law would set up a "solidarity fund" which will be used to raise money through as yet undetermined contributions and investments.
Despite Tuesday's rejection of the deposit tax, the idea was back on the table Friday. Neophytou said discussions were continuing on what percentage of accounts above the guaranteed 100,000 euro ($130,000) limit would be seized, in exchange for bank bonds.
That will happen for deposits in Laiki, and could be extended to other banks too, including the country's largest, the Bank of Cyprus, which also took significant losses on Greek debt.
One lawmaker, who spoke only on condition of anonymity because the talks were ongoing, said the size of the deposit tax would be large enough "so that the numbers add up."
Laiki bank's acting CEO, Takis Phidias, condemned the plan. "I'm certain that there will be chaos after these bills are approved."
Phidias said the initial plan to seize deposits across all Cypriot accounts "would have more evenly shared the burden and certainly, it would have safeguarded both large banks. I'd like to believe that there's still time to carry out this negotiation.
The Bank of Cyprus said it backed the idea of confiscating some percentage of all bank deposits over 100,000 euros because there were no immediate alternatives.
The bank warned Cypriots that "a potential collapse of the banking sector could lead to the total loss of all deposits above 100,000 euros and the immediate sale of all collateral accompanying non-performing loans."
Meanwhile, Cypriot efforts to clinch a contribution from Russia appeared to have failed. Russia is a key player in the crisis as Russian depositors have parked around 20 billion euros ($25.8 billion) in the country.
Michael Sarris returned to Cyprus on Friday night after spending three days in Moscow trying to drum up support.
"We will only be ready to discuss various ways of support for that state only after the EU nations and Cyprus work out a final settlement," Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev told a news conference.Next Page >

Electronic cigarettes or popularly known as e-cigarettes which originated from China. It is said to be one of the best aid to stop smoking habits. However, one of the biggest debate now is whether these electronic cigarettes can really help someone to quit smoking. Many are quite doubtful whether a device like electronic -cigarettes is effective. But for some, they believe that this is one of the best way to free one-self from smoking.
Electronic Cigarettes (e-cigarettes) as an Alternative
"Smoking" which is commonly pertains to smoking cigarettes is one of the most common addiction. This problem is not isolated into one country only but at all parts of the world. There are different programs to help smoking cessation coming either from the government or from private institutions. One of these programs is the House Bill 5727 or popularly known as SIN Tax Bill. The aim of this law is to discourage smokers from buying tobaccos because of the added tax for each cigarette stick. It did helped to increase smoking cessation but of course the percentage is not that quite significant. A vice like smoking tobaccos or cigarette is hard to remove from one's system. It takes a lot of will and acceptance to quit. Some are trying hard to quit, while some are doing it one-step at a time. There are smokers who are gradually doing it by reducing the number of sticks they take in a day. While some are switching to electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) as an alternative to sustain their vice.
What is electronic cigarettes?
Electronic cigarettes are devices that looks like a regular cigarette which produces vapor but without those harmful effects. It is an electronic inhaler that vaporizes a liquid solution poured inside and transform it into smoke. This now simulates the real cigarette. The liquid solution comes in different flavors depending on your preference. There are even known and distinct brands like Marlboro. When did it start, and how it evolved was discussed and defined in Wikipedia - Electronic cigarettes.
Can Electronic Cigarettes Help People With Smoking Vice?
My direct answer is "NO". But I am not saying that it is impossible. All I am saying is that it all depends on the person with smoking problem. The person himself should have a strong will, conviction, and he confidence that he "can" and "will" stop smoking. Electronic cigarettes, yes, it is one possible effective tools to smoking cessation. But the main ingredient to stop smoking is the person itself.
Do you agree?

See It Cummings will be at the Nov. 3 Festa dell'Autunno street festival at The Resort at Pelican Hill, 22701 Pelican Hill Road S., Newport Coast, 800-315-8214,pelicanhill.com/festa. See more of his work at mcoriginals.com, and chalkpainting.com.
BackgroundA painter who honed his classical technique at the Angel Academy in Florence, Italy, Cummings often re-creates Old World masterpieces as chalk street paintings. He also teaches art at JSerra Catholic High School in San Juan Capistrano and shows his paintings at The Bluebird Gallery in Laguna Beach. Cummings says his Christian faith is a great influence: "Art is a form of worship for me."
CreationCummings is drawn to Baroque and religious paintings. Once he finds an image to replicate, he tweaks the piece's perspective for viewers who will look down at it on the street, rather than view it on a wall. He draws a grid on the pavement, and then outlines the image in chalk pastel. He layers and blends colors to create shadows, contrast, and depth.
InspirationCummings, who took up street painting at a friend's suggestion, loves its temporary nature. "Creating a chalk painting takes many hours, sometimes days, only to be washed away by a hose or street cleaner, or tramped on by pedestrians. So many people ask me, 'Doesn't this bum you out?' It's a performance art, much like a concert. Just a lot slower."

Cataloguing box 47 is a slow process, it is packed with lots of 'bundles', mostly folded and rolled receipts and invoices for the second half of the eighteenth century, intricately put together in years. They are like abstract pieces of origami which when unfolded cannot be put back together in quite the same way. But this is not the real reason for taking so long to work through the documents; I am easily diverted. On the face of it bills are rather boring, but here are people going about their business on the estate, making trips to purchase goods and undertaking repairs to buildings, the Malthouse and Red Lion seem to appear quite regularly. Local history, family history, economic history, even costume history can be discovered here. Trips to Bath conjure up images of Jane Austen, while wages being paid three years late leave you pondering how people managed to feed themselves and their families. The distractions are plentiful.
But back to the title, some of the most intriguing bills found were those for medicines. For a week in September 1740 Thomas Honey was paid for a variety of herbal medicines, along with the 'vomit' was 'cordial mixture' and 'a decoction of ye bark a quart'. I have not found any other references to Thomas so far, but he seems well named. Doctor, apothecary, quack, how to describe someone who supplied these remedies; he charged for 'bleeding' so a barber perhaps, or even a grocer? Apothecaries were originally part of the grocers' trade. In January 1745 it was a Mr Ringston and William Busby who were supplying John Talbot with similar items, a 'cooling emulsion a quart' and 'the opening electuary' and then nothing until August when 'rhubarb tinctures' and 'mercurial pills' were supplied.

You may have seen the dig underway beside the West Kennet Avenue if you visited the Avebury half of the Stonehenge and Avebury World Heritage Site this summer. The excavation was part of the on-going Between the Monuments project led by Southampton and Leicester Universities in partnership with the National Trust. For the second year running archaeologists returned to look for clues about how people might have been using the landscape in this area before the monument with its impressive pairs of standing stones was constructed.

I don't know about you, but when I think of the First World War the first thing which comes into my mind is barbed wire and mud – and all the associated horrors of trench warfare. This is probably the result of reading the War Poets at school, and watching the film 'All Quiet on the Western Front' at an impressionable age! As I have got older I've read more widely about the War and learned how it impacted on civilian life, as well as on the front line troops. I have been amazed by the scope of that impact, and by the way in which aspects of life on the Home Front (which I had previously assumed were introduced in the Second World War) such as rationing and evacuation, actually had their roots in the First World War. One blog cannot do justice to this topic so I'm just going to touch on a few aspects of the War's impact on Wiltshire. We hope to uncover more stories of life on the Home Front through the Wiltshire at War: Community Stories project in collaboration with Wiltshire's museums http://www.wshc.eu/blog/item/wiltshire-at-war-community-stories.html

I came across a beautiful example of a tin tabernacle whilst exploring the area of Braydon recently, and I began wondering about the history of these most temporary of religious structures. Here's what I discovered!
Britain saw a 'revival' of preaching in the 19th century through to the outbreak of WWI, with mass meetings attended by huge audiences. By the late 1850s churches were becoming overcrowded and the search was on for new buildings to use as places of worship. Non-conformists were not bound by the Anglican parish system and found it much easier to expand with new builds or altering existing buildings. Smith (2004) in his book Tin Tabernacles states that over 100,000 people were converted during this time, 80% of whom were non-conformist.
Welcome, the tin tabernacle!

One of our latest jobs has been at the mill, Heytesbury, a gorgeous location with a clear mill-pond which the locals have traditionally used to cool down on a hot day. This mellow jumble of different brick and stone ranges, and varied roof-lines represents a site continually occupied from at least the early 17th century, and probably earlier. By the mid-C17 Heytesbury was owned by the a'Court family from Ivychurch near Salisbury. They continued to own much property here until the 1920s. During research into the family, an interesting case of poisoning came up.

HARRISONBURG, Va. (WHSV) -- Farmers in the Shenandoah Valley are using different methods to try to keep water clean before it eventually feeds into the Chesapeake Bay.
The Arbogasts work with the Natural Resources Conservation Service along with the Department of Environmental Quality.
Both of those government agencies come to farms to take soil samples and also work with farmers to come up with a plan to keep nitrates out of the water.
Vegetation now covers the stream that runs through Arbogast Farms.
A year ago, it didn't have the chance to grow.
The Arbogasts said cattle had to walk through the stream to get to the barn.
"We've fenced that cattle away from that spring so they can't get into the water mainly for water quality and erosion control," said Brent Arbogast.
They have an electric fence, which is powered by solar energy.
It's one of a number of things they've added.
"In the past before we had the bridge, if we wanted to get the cattle over here they had to go through the creek, which made a mess. And now we have this bridge that's wide enough that we can run a whole bunch of cattle across it and their feet never get in the water," said Brent Arbogast.
When they started the project, they took a water sample from their spring house to test the water quality.
"It really wasn't all that bad but we just wanted a before and after," said Brent Arbogast.
In November, they'll take another sample to see how the sediment levels compare.
"I'm sure it'd have to be better," said Brent Arbogast.
The new cattle facility will also house everything inside, including a manure storage facility.
"This building is built so close to the stream that we designed it so no manure or any type of run off can get into the stream," said Brent Arbogast.
"Better water, which goes ultimately to the Chesapeake Bay," said Brent Arbogast.
Arbogast said one practice they are keeping up is recording amounts of poultry litter.
They store the litter here and then use it as fertilizer.
"We are regulated by the DEQ. They give us a plan of how many acres of poultry litter can be spread per acre per year and they come around every three years and take soil samples," said Brian Arbogast.
In addition to changes on their land, the Arbogasts help other farmers with similar projects with their company Precision Fence, LLC.
From adding fences to concrete entrance ways to stop erosion, they say they're just trying to do what they can.
"Farmers are very conscientious of the environment anyway and we're just trying to do our part as a farm family to have better quality water. You know and we just hope our neighbors downstream will practice the same practices we do," said Brent Arbogast.

In accordance with the decision of the President of the European Patent Office dated 4 July 2012 concerning the pilot project to introduce new technical means of communication in EPO proceedings (OJ EPO 2012, 486), and in particular its Articles 6 and 7, documents in proceedings under the EPC and under the PCT may, without prejudice to the other means of filing documents, be filed using the case management system (CMS), provided by the European Patent Office on its website, by uploading electronic files in accordance with the applicable regulations, including - where applicable - Rule 89bis PCT and Part 7 of the Administrative Instructions under the PCT, and the present conditions.
The CMS is available, at the invitation of the European Patent Office and following registration, to selected users in possession of a smart card issued by the European Patent Office.
2.1 The following may be filed using the CMS:
(a) European patent applications,
(b) international (PCT) applications,
(c) documents filed subsequently in proceedings under the PCT and under the EPC, with the exception of appeal proceedings (Articles 106 to 112a EPC), and

2.3 The CMS may not be used to file priority documents.
Documents filed via the CMS must be filed in accordance with the Administrative Instructions under the PCT, Part 7 and Annex F.
4.1 Where filed documents require signature, this may take the form of a facsimile signature or a text string signature.
4.2 A facsimile signature is a reproduction of the filing person's signature.
4.3 A text string signature is a string of characters, preceded and followed by a forward slash (/), selected by the signatory to prove his identity and his intent to authenticate the message in question.
The date of filing accorded to a patent application filed via the CMS shall be the date on which the application documents thus transmitted were received at the European Patent Office, provided they satisfy the requirements of Article 80 EPC and Rule 40 EPC or of Article 11(1) PCT. The date of receipt accorded to subsequently filed documents shall be the date on which they were received at the European Patent Office.
6.1 Receipt of documents filed via the CMS is acknowledged electronically by the European Patent Office via an acknowledgment of receipt in the CMS.
6.2 Where such acknowledgment is not successfully transmitted, the European Patent Office will transmit it by other means without delay, provided it has sufficient information at its disposal.
6.3 The acknowledgment indicates the identity of the European Patent Office, the date and time of receipt, a reference or application number assigned by the European Patent Office, a list of the files transferred, and a hash value (the message digest).

7.1 Where a filed document is illegible or incomplete, that part of it which is illegible or incomplete will be deemed not to have been received.
7.2 If a filed document is infected with a computer virus or contains other malicious software, it will be deemed to be illegible. The European Patent Office is not obliged to open or process it.
7.3 Where a filed document is found to be deficient within the meaning of points 7.1 or 7.2, the sender, if identifiable, is notified without delay.
No paper documents need be filed to confirm documents filed using the CMS.
In addition to the present conditions, the provisions in the latest version of the "EPO case management system (CMS), User guide" apply.

Louisville Metro Responds to Winter Storm
Wednesday December 22, 2004
Despite a significant winter storm, Louisville Metro Emergency Management Director Doug Hamilton credits careful planning and diligent work of road crews for keeping Louisville's priority roads passable through Wednesday morning and early afternoon.
"We're monitoring the situation closely and are ready to elevate our response as the storm progresses," Hamilton said.
The Emergency Management Agency is coordinating with agencies and institutions across the community regarding storm response. Highlights of the snow response include:
Staggered Release of Employees in High-Traffic Areas
To alleviate rush hour traffic, employers are encouraged to begin releasing employees from work at staggered intervals throughout the afternoon. EMA suggests employers in highly concentrated business districts such as downtown, Hurstbourne and industrial parks especially consider this staggered release.
Road Safety
Louisville Metro road crews are continuously working to clear first-priority roads across the community. These include major thoroughfares and through-streets. Drivers should drive slowly and proceed with caution.
Air Travel
Currently Louisville International Airport is moving planes in and out. Delays may be experienced due to other airports in the system. Before heading to the airport, contact your airline for flight status. Travelers should arrive at least 1-½ hours before a flight's departure.
Water Lines
Temperatures are expected to drop in the coming days. To help prevent water pipes from freezing, residents can drip faucets and open the cabinet doors under sinks.
Garbage/Recycling Collection
Today's garbage and recycling pickup in the urban-services district is expected to be completed without major problems. Suburban garbage and recycling pickup, operated by private haulers, may be affected by weather.
Homeless Shelters
Operation White Flag is in effect at four area homeless shelters: The Healing Place, Salvation Army, St. Vincent de Paul and Volunteers of America.

Tuesday, December 8, 2009
Present: Chris Monterio, Chairman, Joan Griffin, Vice-Chairman, Mark Branoff, Treasurer, Mary Lee Underhill, Corresponding Secretary, Anne Marie O'Neil, Norman Boutilette, Carl Heidenblad, Director and Diane Mayr, Assistant Director.
Excused: Lois Freeston and Carolyn Webber.
The meeting was called to order by Chris Monterio at 7:08 p.m.
MINUTES: The minutes of the November meeting contained 2 errors:
1. The percent sign was omitted in the first sentence under FINANCE
It read "78 of the budget was spent…" when it should have been "78% of the budget was spent…"
2. Under the DIRECTOR, the number of loans should have been "17,710" NOT "16,788"
The minutes were accepted as amended,
FINANCE: There was no report since the bank statement was not yet available. There was a discussion about present and predicted interest rates.
Carl reported
Statistics: Circulation in November numbered 16,418 loans. There were 458 Internet users (This decrease in Internet use was due to disruptions during the installation of FIOS/FAST.) There were 5,989 visitors recorded by the people counter (600 came on Sundays).
Building: Sally D'Angelo will have a proposal with ideas for space layout in the workroom area early next year.
Carl is considering an ergonomics study for the staff work stations.
Technology: One Communications will change the phones back to POTS service. POTS is "plain old telephone service!"
Follett software installation is planned before the end of the year.
Revenue Generating Equipment: Prompted by Mark Branoff's suggestion, Carl composed a proposal for adoption for receipt of income-generating equipment which requires a warrant on the Town ballot in March.
MOTION was made by Mark Branoff and seconded
That the Board approve the proposal made in accordance with RSA-A:11-b for a warrant to read:
"Shall we permit the public library to retain all money it receives from its income-generating equipment to be used for general repairs and upgrading and for the purchase of books, supplies, and income-generating equipment?"
The motion passed unanimously.
Carpeting: Carl submitted the information on three carpeting bids received. The board asked questions and clarification regarding costs, quality of materials, time frame, process, the effect on patrons, staff, and daily routine, safety, preventative maintenance and best time to schedule.
2010 budget: Budget hearings at the Town level are still ongoing.
Director's Evaluation: Chris will e-mail the evaluation forms to all members. The Board will discuss the composite results at the January meeting.
The next Trustees' Meeting will be held January 12, 2010 at 7 p.m.
The meeting adjourned at 8:05.
Respectfully submitted,
Mary Lee Underhill
Draft subject to approval

With the cold season comes a wide array of ailments and at the top of that list is the Flu. Rita Ohai writes on the misconceptions, the symptoms and ways to prevent this disease
IF a person walks around with a runny nose, cough, a fever and constant exhaustion bugging down the muscles, they most likely have caught the flu.
In spite of the frequency with which most people in our part of Africa fall to this illness, very little is known about it.
Often, it is tagged a symptom of other diseases such as typhoid or malaria.
Explaining the nature of the disease, Dr. Charity Onabolu says, "Flu is an acute infection of the airway tract in the nose and throat that can sometimes spread down into the lungs. It is actually the most frequent cause of acute respiratory illness and it occurs every year mainly during the rainy or cold season.
"This is primarily because we tend to stay indoors more and thus have closer contact with each other due to the cold weather and this makes it easier for the virus to spread," she said.
Many people incorrectly confuse influenza (the flu) with the common cold. Differentiating a cold from the flu by symptoms alone can sometimes be difficult, but generally, people with the flu get ill suddenly, look much sicker, and feel much weaker than when they are hit with the ailment of a common cold.
According to Dr. Charity, "Symptoms of the flu tend to start quickly and can include fever, chills, dry cough, and sore throat.
Even though people often mix-up common cold symptoms with those of the flu, the key method of separating the two is that regular cold symptoms are usually milder and don't last as long as flu symptoms.
"Fever (usually high), headache, extreme tiredness, dry cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, muscle aches, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea may occur. Typically, the fever will begin to decline on the second or third day of the illness, but that same patient can spread the virus to other people before their symptoms start and for another 3 to 4 days after their symptoms appear," she finished.
Due to the impact the infection of the flu-causing virus has on the immune system, complications usually appear as the patient starts to feel better. After a brief period of improvement, they may suddenly develop a bacterial infection, which can cause pneumonia in already weakened lungs. Other health issues include high fever, shaking chills, chest pain with each breath, coughing that produces thick, yellow-green mucus.
Can your diet really reduce your risk of catching a cold or influenza? Nutrition experts certainly think so.
According to Victor Shonibare, a nutritional expert, food and healthy lifestyle choices boost your immune system, and that can prevent individuals from coming down with colds and flu.
He explains how diet and other smart lifestyle choices will help avoid the sniffles, stuffy nose and aches of the cold, as well as the outright misery of influenza: "Natural food is better than dietary supplements for the prevention of colds and flu because you get the whole nutritional package.
"Drinking homemade juice from fruits like oranges and vegetables high in vitamin C will help to keep your immune system strong and healthy during cold and flu season."
Stating further, he explains that protein sources such as lean meats, dairy, eggs and legumes are especially important because they supply the amino acids that the body needs to build the components of your immune system.
Avoiding junk foods is important too especially the ones that contain excess sugar and unhealthy fats.
Sharing simple procedures infected patients can do to help heal faster, Dr. Onabolu states, "Steam inhalations may be useful in opening up a blocked nose which will in turn make breathing easier. When the person is able to take in more oxygen, they will feel stronger and the body can fight the infection better."
To create steam, boil water on the stove, remove the pot from the stove, then sit with a towel over your head, above the pot or bowl containing the hot water and inhale the steam.
Another simple method is steaming up the bathroom by letting the shower run with hot water only. Inhaling the moisture in a steamy room can serve a similar purpose.
8 Natural tips to help prevent flu
THERE are no known cures for colds and flu, so cold and flu prevention should be your goal. A proactive approach to ward off colds and flu is apt to make your whole life healthier. The strategies that can be employed to help prevent colds and the flu naturally are;
1 Wash your hands
Most cold and flu viruses are spread by direct contact. Someone who has the flu sneezes onto his or her hand and then touches the telephone, the keyboard, a kitchen glass. The germs can live for hours only to be picked up by the next person who touches the same object. So wash your hands often. If you can't get to a sink, rub an alcohol-based hand sanitizer onto your hands.
2 Don't cover your sneezes and coughs with your hands
Because germs and viruses cling to your bare hands, muffling coughs and sneezes with your hands often results in passing along your germs to others. When you feel a sneeze or cough coming, use a tissue, then throw it away immediately. If you don't have a tissue, cough or sneeze into the inside of your elbow.
3 Don't touch your face
Cold and flu viruses enter your body through the eyes, nose, or mouth. Touching their faces is the major way children catch colds and a key way they pass colds on to their parents.
4 Drink plenty of fluids
Water should never be the sole or main liquid consumed because it does not contain adequate electrolytes (sodium and potassium, for example) that the body requires. Adults need to add fruit juices, and clear soups like fish and chicken soup to their diet. For children, ORS (oral rehydration solution) packets are another good way to replenish the body. A similar rehydrating solution can be made at home using salt, sugar, and plain or rice water. Adding some orange juice and mashed bananas enhances the taste and also provides a good source of potassium. Such a solution can be used by anyone, regardless of age.
5 Do aerobic exercise regularly
Aerobic exercise speeds up the heart to pump larger quantities of blood; makes you breathe faster to help transfer oxygen from your lungs to your blood; and makes you sweat once your body heats up. These exercises help increase the body's natural virus-killing cells.
6 Don't smoke
Statistics show that heavy smokers get more severe colds and more frequent ones. Even being around smoke profoundly zaps the immune system.
Smoke dries out your nasal passages and paralyzes cilia, these are the delicate hairs in the nose and lungs that sweep cold and flu viruses out of the nasal passages.
7 Cut alcohol consumption
Heavy alcohol use suppresses the immune system in a variety of ways. Heavier drinkers are more prone to initial infections as well as secondary complications. Alcohol also dehydrates the body .It actually causes more fluid loss from your system than it puts in.
8 Relax
If you can teach yourself to relax, you may be able to rev up your immune system. Keep in mind, relaxation is a learnable skill.
