A list of prioritized project risks sheds light on where resources and time should be focused in terms of monitoring the most likely and most costly threats. The next step in process is to determine how to either prevent them from occurring or managing them in the most efficient manner possible should they materialize.
Managing prioritized project risks can include any of the following options, either on their own or in combination with other listed options. They are:
- Having a detailed response plan in place prior to an event occurrence – This actually isn't an option at all and should be mandatory aspect of all project plans. An advanced risk assessment takes the guesswork out of responses which would have to be formulated on the fly if pre-planned actions have not been defined.
- Having a thorough knowledge of available assets – Knowing what assets are available and where they are currently located can assist delivering a response as quickly as possible.
- Determining which people on the project team are best suited to handle each specific risk event – This includes changing assignments as seamlessly as possible to ensure that current work continues while the most capable team members are re-assigned to the task of mitigating the impact and cost of a prioritized threat.
- Planning for contingencies – There are many types of risk which cannot be prevented, necessitating the development of contingency plans. An example would be a change in regulations relating to the project. Here, having plans in place to adapt to a new set of regulations would most likely speed a mandatory transition, thus giving a project the best chance possible to stay on schedule and on budget.
- Knowing where to obtain new resources – If new resources (labor, commodities, etc.) will be needed to mitigate risks, knowing where to find them in advance will speed their implementation which can save both money and time.
Planning cost effective responses to unfolding risk events is a multi-layered and complex process. Walking through these issues with an experienced team like the one led by Dmitrij Harder at Solvo Group can both prioritize risks and deal with them in the most efficient manner possible.

Temporary Living Situations: Bringing the Absolute Essential Kitchen Equipment
I'm moving this summer and will soon be living in temporary housing for a month or two. My fiancé and I can take a few essentials, but the rest of our house - and kitchen! - will be packed away in storage during this time. Guess which truly essential kitchen equipment I'll be taking with me!
We know that the temporary housing does have a kitchen and this kitchen should theoretically be stocked with "essentials." But we have a feeling that a rental agency's idea of essentials and our idea of essentials might be a little different, so we're hedging our bets!
Here's what we've decided to take so far:
• Chef's knife
• Paring knife
• Cutting board
• Measuring spoons
• Measuring cups
• Liquid measuring cup
• A 6-Quart Dutch oven
• A 12-inch cast iron skillet
• One loaf pan
• One cookie sheet
We're assuming (hopefully correctly) that the temporary housing will have mixing spoons, a spatula, a whisk (or at least a fork), a can opener, a colander, a few mixing bowls, and a sauce pan of some sort.
We've tried to go through everything we normally cook, and we think that we're covered with this list of essentials. The only things we might add are a 9x13 casserole dish and a strainer, but right now they're with the non-essentials.
Is there anything you'd add to this list? Or something you think we could take off?

For me, I'd leave out the loaf pan, but then I'm not much of a baker. Tongs? Will you be grilling? Can't grill (easily) without tongs...
When I stayed in a furnished (by a rental company) apartment, they had the things you list, except possibly the whisk but they definitely had forks. I think they also had a 9X13 baking pan. I know I ended up bringing my knives over, and an extra cutting board and my cast iron skillet.
One company did provide me with measuring cups and spoons, though not a liquid measuring cup, another didn't. I think there was also a baking sheet but it's been a while (thank goodness!) so I don't really remember. There were dish towels (crummy ones, though, so I brought over a few of my own), scrubby sponges and I think cloth napkins and placemats, too. You'll probably be fine with the list you've got so far.
What about a colander! I wouldn't be able to live w/out mine.
Depends on your cooking method. I just tend to throw a bunch of stuff together according to my tastes without really measuring. After thinking about it, I only really need 3 things.
1. A decent frying pan.
2. A saucepan with a lid
3. A good knife.
perfect. I agree with all the ones Emma listed. I really don't think I could add to that list.
Heres to hoping that the temp house has the untensils.
I wasn't even sure what a Dutch Oven was until I clicked the link, so I'd take that one out!
I would have replaced it with a few pots of different sizes, though, so your call.
Not that stainless steel pan, that's for sure. I can't stand those things. The way water or sauce frizzes up the sides when you pour out of it...
I would bring a medium sized well seasoned cast iron frying pan.
it's funny because the first thing i thought when i saw this post was "i hope they bring a colander!" my aunt stayed in a house on the beach for a month one recent summer and was absolutely horrified at the lack of one in her rental kitchen. it was literally all anybody talked about for the first week in any lull in conversation. don't assume! and be sure to update as to what IS provided! =)
It occured to me that they'd probably send you a list if you asked what they supply. I know the big companies have them.
And it's totally possible to work without a colander, although it's not all that much fun.
Cutting board
Mixing bowl
Deep fry pan
Wooden spoon
Tea kettle
Hand blender
My Fiance and I just went through the same thing! You'd be amazed what you can get by with - the person we sublet from definitely had a different definition of essentials.
Knives are a no-brainer, but I also couldn't have lived without my strainer/colander, which definitely wasn't supplied!!
It's fun to be inventive with what you're given... cook in different ways and try different things. Makes you realize how much you own is really redundant.
Good luck!

WARNING: Because this is a shared universe that could be added to by anypony, whatever is posted here is essentially a Schr�dinger's Gun to use be it inside or outside of the cultivated Lunaverse. That being said, anything in here is to be treated as an unmarked spoiler unless explicitly Jossed, and even then is fair game for anyone to write about, so you have been warned.
Future Events
Altwilight will create a cult bent on restoring the Celestian Timeline.After the planned Crisis Crossover, Twilight will either be completely aware or with suppressed memories of the timeline that was. Without the Mane 6 or Celestia to keep her in check, she makes it her goal to revolutionize the Lunaverse into what she saw in the Celestial Equestria, and uses her formidable command over magic and minds to rapidly gain support.
There will be a fight between Corona and Nightmare Moon at some pointBecause it's cool, and because we all want to know the answer.
Luna!Twi ends up being Corona's Dragon along with Zecora.Who better to show Twily real magic than THE most powerful pony around? It would be a nice dark mirror to canon too.
Applejack will do a Heel-Face Turn and become a Defector from Decadence.She doesn't seem to have completely gone over to gleeful, bullying evil like Apple Bloom. An Armor-Piercing Question in the right place and time could be the trigger that opens her eyes to the truth.
Alt-Twilight will form her own group of Elements.Rather than commit suicide by going anywhere Corona, Twilight will prove her worth to Luna and her brother by assembling what she believes to be more fitting bearers than the Lunaverse Six. Given that she's kind of naive and a touch touched, her 'perfect' army will in fact be slightly dysfunctional at best owing to her over-reliance on dictionary meanings. As an example, her better version of the Element of Generosity could well be somepony who's only doing it to get a write-off on her taxes and who is otherwise a greedy, selfish jerk.
Fancy Pants and Fleur will have a big fight scene with either Greengrass or Greengrass's thugsFancy Pants has been built up as a secret agent for Luna, possibly head of the spy group the Shadowbolts, and is even called 'Bat-pony' by the writers. Greengrass is the Big Bad of season 1's political arc. Even if it's Trixie that takes the Duke down in the end, Fancy Pants will have a chance to show his stuff by thrashing Greengrass or his minions. And if Fancy is fighting, Luna help the pony who tries to keep Fleur from watching his back.
A famine will hit PonyvilleMaybe it was an accident (Parasprites?) or one of Corona�s plans but in the end Ponyville suffers from a food shortage. The other towns can�t help them because of [insert cheap explanation here], so the town is on it�s own. Of course, AJ sees this as a way to show every pony that only the Apple Trust can deal with such a situation and tries to save the town all on her own. In the end�
Corona will hear a recording of the Symphony for Moon and SunNow that it's finally been played correctly, the other alicorn sister will hear it how it was supposed to sound. And she'll...
Duke Greengrass will be defeated in "Grand Galloping Gala"......and as a result, his co-conspirators will be recruited by Corona in "Summer Sun Celebration". It is mentioned in "When There's Smoke" that she's using that dragon's horde to buy off nobles in the Night Court for her next attack. And with their chief manipulator out of the way and them all under Luna's scrutiny, they'll turn to Corona to insure their continued status.
If there's a Season 2, Discord will be the Big BadAnd like Corona, he'll only be defeated in his first appearance rather than sealed away, allowing him to become main villain of the season's Myth Arc.
Alternately, Discord will be the Big Bad of the Crisis CrossoverOr, rather, the Big Bads plural, as canon!Discord and Lunaverse!Discord with team up (like Eggman and Eggman Nega). They'll probably even indulge in a little Let's You and Him Fight by setting both versions of the Elements of Harmony against each other.
Apple Bloom will become Zecora's Morality Chain/Pet
Discord with "reform" CoronaDiscord can give ponies insanity and take it away. And what better way to get back at his Arch-Enemy than to make her sane enough to be horrified at the things she has done.
The Lunaverse Six will be slightly more horrified by their Mane-Six world counterparts than the Mane Six will be by their alternate selves.The way things are shaping up, most of the Lunaverse versions of the Mane Six are growing more like the ones we see on TV with each passing day; by the time of the Crisis Crossover, the personality shifts caused by not being element bearers will have pretty much eroded. The same cannot be said of the Celestiaverse versions of the Luna Six. What this means is that when they do meet, Trixie, Cheerilee and the others will be more horrified by what they could have become than Applejack and Rainbow Dash will.
Twilight Sparkle's punishment for the Ursa Minor incident will be a few years of community service in Ponyville.It seems fairly clear that during her time in the Mane Six's world, Luna will have noticed that the best way of keeping Twilight out of trouble is to give her a job suited to her interests. Therefore, she'll sentence her to serve out her time working at the Books and Branches Library.
The evil pony from Crisis on Two Equestrias is an alicorn.Think about it.
If and/or when Celestia comes to her senses, she's going to work behind the scenes to either dismantle the Sun Cult or turn into the local take on the Salvation Army.
The reason the vision Zecora had of Equestria's future ends after the final showdown with Corona is sadly obvious.That's because one of the many things Celestia will be atoning for is luring an innocent, albeit extremely misguided, zebra to a needless death.
In the Spec Ops: The Line homage 'Siege of Stalliongrad', Corona, not Carrot Top, will correspond to Walker, and Fisher, not Corona, will correspond to Konrad.
Character Histories
Luna cut a deal with Discord.Luna may or may not have been jealous for her sister's attention, but also worried about her being the single thing keeping Equestria out of harms way. So when Discord came to town and enforced his rule of chaos, Luna offered him amnesty and regard in Equestrian court to end his reign of terror on amicable terms and keep her sister out of the line of fire. Discord accepted, then drove Celestia to madness, forcing Luna to seal away her sister to keep her safe from herself, and gained the free passage and private audience with the Princess whenever he feels like it.
Luna might be planning on ennobling Trixie.Not only is Trixie safely out of the way out in Ponyville, her successful performance as Luna's mouthpiece could, as Trixie hopes, end up making the showboating loudmouth a grandstanding irritant with a title.
We will never learn exactly what happened at the Ice Palace.The very amusing story of what it was that Trixie did will never be completely explained. All we'll ever know is that it involved a lot of water damage and caused Twilight to think of Ms Lulamoon as an incompetent fraud.
Applejack is terrified of admitting that the Apple Trust is essentially a license to mint bits.We do know that one of the things that Alt-Applejack has in common with Mane Six-Applejack is a fear of being disgraced. The anger that she demonstrates towards ponies that she tells herself are trying to reduce her family to penury is the result of a comforting lie she tells herself about how the monopoly she and her family enjoy is minutes from collapse. Were she to admit that the family has an iron feed-trough, she'd have to experience the shame of worrying about nothing and making an ugly, belligerent foal of herself in the process. This means that she has to treat Carrot Top as if she's trying to take the food out of her mouth; anything to keep from having to say "Ah was wrong."
Applejack's Aunt Orange and Uncle Resplendent Orange are part of the Night Court.As a filly trying to determine her place in life, she visited them and was exposed to a near-lethal amount of political intrigue. This gave her unwanted insight on just how two-faced, conniving and backstabbing ponies can be, at the cost of a deeply ingrained paranoia.
Fluttershy knows what her father did.At the very least, she suspects he ensured Rainbow Dash to have a steady job in Ponyville so that she can always look after her... whether Dash wanted to or not. She has seriously mixed feelings about this: on the one hoof, it's nice having a good friend around... but what if Dash resents being tied there? What happens if she wants to pursue some other ambition, one that'd involve leaving Ponyville? Sadly, she can't bring herself to say anything about it, too fearful of provoking her father or Dash. Because even if it's not purely friendship that keeps her there, she's happy having her around... and scared of what that might say about her. Does that make her selfish? A horrible pony...? What if finding that out makes Dash resent her?! She can't handle the thought of driving her away...!
Celestia will become a Red Lantern.
Zecora is loyal to Celestia, not Corona.Zecora seems to be a loyal Dragon to Corona, but at the end of the day, Corona hasn't taken over Equestria, not even a little bit. Zecora's main actions have been to summon Corona from Canterlot to the Everfree Forest just in time to get struck by the Elements of Harmony - potentially an attempt to see if the Elements would purify her the way they did for Nightmare Moon in canon - and helping her escape Luna's attempt to imprison her again. Zecora doesn't actually want Corona to rule Equestria, she just wants to keep her alive and free for long enough to bring her back to sanity.
Setting Inferences
The Lunaverse can be traced back to the original G1 series, G4 being a Pandorican reboot.Due to the mention of Tirek and other call backs from deep within the franchise, the Lunaverse is what became of the world of Megan, the rainbow bridge, and the ponies of yore. The mainline verse is an optimized fork where events and the choosing of the modern Elements of Harmony were gamed to be the golden timeline, where as the Lunaverse evolved more naturally.

Comments: Excellent hat! Because I have a small amount of hair atop my head, I need to wear a cap whenever I go running. The UPF 50 material is great for this. And it is the coolest (temperature-wise) cap that I have found yet! It can get pretty hot here in the desert. Finally the underside of the bill is black, so reflections and glare are minimized.

Two brothers who were Episcopal clergymen—The Rev. Theophilis M. Reilly, and the Rev. William M. Reilly—conducted St John's Academy in Burlington, according to Cliff Brunker of the Historical Society of Haddonfield. In 1871 they moved the school to Haddonfield when they purchased 110 acres that were part of the high ground at 310 Centre St.
In 1878, a sister school for girls, St Agnes Academy, was founded. It was housed opposite to the boys' school on the corner of Lakeview Avenue and Centre Street.
Both schools were under the direction of Mrs. William M. Reilly.

BANGOR (WKZO) -- Officials in Bangor are still looking at their options when it comes to the local police force. This week, the city council voted to seek bids for three possible solutions to the department's lack of a proper facility. City Manager Michael Selden tells us that since the current one was damaged by a fire, there's been talk of simply disbanding the police force and contracting with the Van Buren County Sheriffs Department for protection. However, council members are checking one more time to see what the costs might be for another solution. He says that any of the options they are reviewing could end up costing north of 200 thousand dollars. The bids should come in next month, and the city council will hold some public meetings after that to see what citizens think.

Soon this place would stop being North Window and become the place it needed to be.
It was strange.
Coming back.
He remembered this place as a home. The only real home he'd ever had.
It was bittersweet knowing that he'd be staying here again for the next however long.
The first place he'd visited was the small cemetery out at the back.
Funny, he thought, that the only flowers that grew there were daisies.
He'd picked some and left them down gently at the headstones. He'd known them all.
Soon new graves would be dug there.
Soon new people would grieve there.
Soon this place would stop being North Window and become the place it needed to be.
Like how he'd stopped being the young foolish Viktor that no one remembered, besides himself and Barbara, and had become the person he had to be to carry on.
Like how that boy would have to stop being a kid, step up to the title of "leader" and become a man.

What if your cell phone was no bigger then a pack of cigarettes, but sported a screen that measured 5″ diagonally? Coming later this year, Polymer Vision plans to release a cell phone that includes a 5″ rollable display. Dubbed the Readius, the device will boast all the features of a standard Smartphone, such as high speed Internet, email, MP3 player and more. The E-Ink type display can fold up, requires little juice to operate and can usually be viewed in any type of light. The first iteration of the device will include 16 shades of gray with a color version to be rolled out in 2013. The display won't be touch screen, but I'm sure we can expect a touch version in the coming years. It measures 4.5 x 2.25 x 0.8 inches, weighs 4oz and because of the low power screen it should enable 30 hours of reading time. It includes an SD memory card slot allowing the user to increase capacity to 8GB.

your personal photography – aiming for more than just snapshots
This just might be my most favorite photo of my daughter, Janine. It's from 2003 when she was 9 years old. I was trying out my new Nikon D100, reveling in being able to instantly see any photos I took. We were outside in the garden area of the apartment complex we lived in at the time. With a long focal length, I concentrated on capturing her expression, and some element of who she was at the time – that interesting blend of confidence and shyness … and a fortunate dose of just indulging her dad with the new toy.
Simplifying the composition, the photo is all about her expression and those soulful eyes. She still has that. But she has grown into a confident young woman.
She's currently (2013) studying to become a Chemical Engineer and doing very well at university. Yup, she's bright. That obvious intelligence is also blended with an amazing confidence now. She always was independent; even more so now as a young adult. There's an individualism there that I can see others are drawn towards. Magnetic. It's astonishing at times to watch her interact with other people with an assuredness I didn't have until much, much later in my life. I'm very proud of her, and in a large way also in awe of who she is. She's an incredible person to know. Even more so as her dad.
It's interesting to look over the older photographs now, trying to recognize traces even then of who she is now.
And if I sound a little nostalgic, I am. She moved out of the house when university started in 2012, and she has gained momentum with her own life. So we see much less of her now.
While all the memories are intact, the photographs I have of her have an even more powerful resonance now. And I wish I had more photos of her.
Like any new parent, I shot rolls and rolls of film of her as she grew, but this tapered off as she grew older. In a way , as the "newness" of the baby was shed, we became more used to her as being part of the family. She's just *there* with us; part of us.
Now I wish I had many more photos of her taken during later stages. And not just camera-phone snapshots, but more carefully crafted portraits like this image.
I think there is a danger there – if danger is the proper word – that we reach for our camera phones more readily than before, instead of using a "proper" camera to record events. Make no mistake, I do value having a camera and video-camera as capable as the iPhone on hand, everywhere. In fact, this weekend I surreptitiously recorded a 10 minute video clip as she railed about something. The gestures are amusing. Not that I'd show her now, but to her mother and I, this is an incredibly endearing thing to have. It's very much her.
While having an iPhone / camera phone on hand is just dandy, I think that as photographers we easily become a little too lazy over time. We gradually start to neglect to properly photograph those who are dear to us with better cameras than just our phones.
So this post is a touch self-indulgent as I reminisce, it's also a gentle reminder to everyone that there is real value in taking the extra bit of time and effort. We shouldn't stop taking careful, meaningful portraits of those who touch our lives. With time, we'll be ever more glad we did.
To counter-balance the sweetness of the photograph at the top, here are a few anecdotes from the past year …

BTWN Episode 21 - Robin Williams, Suicide & the Christian Response
in Christianity
Welcome to our 21st episode! This one is a roller coaster ride as we have some fun at Colin's expense, and we also deal with the issue of Robin Williams' suicide.
The show starts out by recognizing the top 5 listening countries, cities, and individuals listening to us on soundcloud.com/biblethumpingwingnut. You won't believe who made the top 5!
We read listener feedback from our iTunes feed, please click this link, subscribe, rate and review us on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/bible-thumping-wingnut/id901586827?mt=2
We also received voicemails this week, one from Calvinist Batman (@CalvinistBatman) from Twitter, and answered the following email:
"is it possible to understand election, observe my life and then know i am not elected thus know that i am elected to hell and not choose by God and then be completely hopeless as there is nothing i can do????"
Wretched Radio did a great job of asking and answering many questions regarding the suicide of Robin Williams. The questions that Todd Friel asked and we dealt with are as follows:
Does the world have answers?
Does The world satisfy?
Is there a place for warnings?
How do we respond?
How does the church speak of suicide?
How should we use the death of Robin Williams?
Does it bother you that Robin Williams is likely in hell?
Join us next week when we will have Jeff Rose and Dave Griffin from Jeremiah Cry ministries to talk about their upcoming conference "The Herald Society." Join us live this week on Thursday night at 8pm EST on www.mixlr.com/biblethumpingwingnut.
God bless!

BTWN Episode 19 - Election with Apologia & No Compromise Radio Part 1
in Christianity
After going through our listener feedback, we remind our listeners that we now have a new iTunes feed from our Sound Cloud account. We set this up so we can offer our listeners better sound quality, so please go subscribe to our new iTunes feed, rate and review us so we can move back up in the "New and Noteworthy" section.
Election is the topic this week, and although it makes many Christians uncomfortable, it's in the bible so this is an issue we must wrestle through. Colin walks us through the TULIP and explains what each point is, then we dig in and listen to clips from Jeff Durbin of Apologia Radio. Famous tazed Arminian and KJV Onlyist Pastor Steven Anderson preached a sermon on Calvinism and called the doctrines of grace "Satanic" but is that a fair criticism?
Pastor Mike Abendroth and the Tuesday Guy from No Compromise Radio give us a thorough teaching on Unconditional Election and the implications of this doctrine.
In keeping with our theme this week, we play a game of "Good Tweet/Bad Tweet" by searching the key words "Calvinism is."
Please remember to subscribe to our new iTunes feed for highest sound quality, call us at 720-789-BTWN and tell us what you think of the show. You can email us at firstname.lastname@example.com, follow us on Twitter, and join our Facebook group and leave us feedback there also.

Beverly Wedda, MD
As a pre-med major at Holy Cross in Worcester, MA, Beverly had the intention of becoming a physician from the start of her college career. Beverly was active in the United States Air Force while completing her medical degree at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, MD and fulfilled her residency in family medicine in the Washington DC area at Malcolm Grow U.S. Air Force Medical Center. She was a family medicine physician for the U.S. Air Force for 9 years. During that time she was also an Assistant Clinical Professor in Family Practice at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences and at the University of California, San Francisco. After leaving active duty, Beverly continued to practice family medicine and also teach physicians in residency as an Instructor at UMass Medical School in Worcester, and more recently Harvard Medical School - Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston.
Early in her healthcare career, Beverly received a book, Manifesto for a New Medicine by James Gordon, MD which ignited her interest in integrative medicine. She recalls the book rekindling a fire for her, reminding her of the reason she chose to enter into medicine in the first place. Years of exploration, research, and self-learning ensued by means of reading books, attending conferences, and receiving treatments herself in alternative therapies in order to understand other ways to heal and be well.
Beverly considers Functional Medicine and Holistic Medicine the paradigms that resonate most with her clinical practice now. She is committed to patient-centered care and views the doctor-patient relationship as one of teamwork. Beverly believes that deep listening is the most important skill a doctor needs. She strives to be intentionally present to what each patient is saying and how they are saying it. Beverly encourages her patients to be active in their healing process and to assess their well-being by taking a holistic view of their lives, attending to the condition of each aspect of themselves - body, mind and spirit.
Beverly's favorite part of working in healthcare is the opportunity to sincerely engage with individuals along their health journey. She appreciates and respects the sharing and connectedness of partnering with patients. Secondly, she admits the joy she experiences while problem-solving using science and literature, and engaging in in-depth investigations of each person's unique biochemistry. It is satisfying for her to see when the results of such investigations align with her evolving clinical theories.
Beverly loves teaching and feels that her role as a healthcare provider in each office visit is very similar to her role as an educator in a classroom. Being a lifelong learner, she also thrives in the role of student. Beverly has learned Level I Reiki and feels this experience has improved her patient interaction and care by allowing her to better appreciate the impact of one's energy - how it moves within us, out from us, and between us as individuals. Beverly has also experienced the incredible benefits of mindfulness training by completing the 8 week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction program at UMASS Worcester.
Beverly takes pleasure in working with individuals of all ages to assist them in meeting their unique health goals, and she is equally committed to attending to her own well-being. She enjoys time with her spouse and family and especially loves being active outdoors. Her most enjoyable recreational activities are road biking, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, kayaking, taking long walks and hiking. She loves listening to music and reading a good book. She is active in her faith community and feels that one's spiritual health is an essential element of overall well-being.

10:30 p.m.
In one of Blacksburg Town Council's longest recent sessions, council members chose not to approve changes necessary for the 'Retreat in Blacksburg' project to move forward.
Town Council voted down a change to the comprehensive plan, needed as step one for the project to proceed. Council then voted down a rezoning ordinance that would have been necessary as well.
6:16 p.m.
Open fields and farmland along Prices Fork Road in Blacksburg, could soon be turned into student apartments for Virginia Tech. It's all depending on a vote Blacksburg's town council is slated to make tonight.
Cecile Newcomb is a member of the town council, she says the Retreat in Blacksburg has been a highly contested project. It's something she and other council members have gotten a lot of feedback on.
"There is very little support for it," says Newcomb. "Most people are very opposed to it."
Tonight's vote will come in two parts. Members of the council would have to pass both in order for this project to move forward.
"One would be to change the comprehensive future land use to show high density residential housing," says Newcomb. "Then there's a rezoning we would vote on. And if that passes they'd have the right to build the student housing that they want to build."
If passed, work would begin right away. Landmark Property's plans show the community will include more than 850 new single bedroom apartments. It's something Newcomb says could lead to issues for the apartments and student housing projects that already exist.
"I think it would mean students would move out of student housing into those because they'd be brand new. I think it could lead to some problems for existing apartment complexes," says Newcomb.
With several new student housing projects already in the works, council members say it's a vote that could go either way.
WSLS tried to get in touch with Landmark Property, the company who is developing the project. We haven't heard back from them, but company leaders will get the opportunity to speak to the town council before tonight's vote.
SHE SAID: I'm kind of on the fence with "Calvary," between full price and matinee.

We were warmly greeted by our hosts and felt at ease right away. The property is gorgeous!!! Our room was handicap equipped. The bathroom was spacious and the room had a deck with a great view of the gardens, spreading lawns, white wedding chapel and the mountains in the distant. The food was delicious and plentiful. The large barn had just been opened for events and was a great space. Beautiful place for a wedding, party. Wish I had something to plan there. We already made reservations to return in July. Glenn & Janice...We appreciated all our kindness and hospitality. S & G

It was great to have you with us at the inn and look forward to your return for Founder's Day on Paris Hill in July. Thank you for coming and choosing to "come again". Welcome to our wonderful inn family.

Stayed at King's Hill Inn with two business colleagues, all of us from the Deep South (Alabama) where genuine hospitality is still the most important attribute of a great B&B. Hospitality or proprietors Janice and Glenn exceeded expectations, as did the multi-course Southern-style breakfast of coffee cake fresh from the oven, followed by eggs and pancakes with locally-picked blueberries. Rooms were quite comfortable and clean -- overall a pleasant, relaxing environment. Owners aim to please. Roger Lucas -- Birmingham, Alabama.
Risposta del proprietario
Thank you for choosing to stay with us while in our beautiful town on business. We thoroughly enjoyed having each of you visit with us, just wish you could have stayed longer. We look forward to your return and glad you brought warmer weather with you from the south.

My family virtually took over King's Hill Inn, where we convened for our daughter's wedding in beautiful Maine. The hosts were simply delightful and very accommodating of my special requests. The breakfasts were ample, tasty and suited for all ages. While the weather outside was really cold, we were snug in the Inn. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are cozy.

Room was OK. Nice porch off back with beautiful views. Could hear snoring from room next door during the night. Owners are looking to sell the B&B and seem to have lost interest in the business. Did not feel real welcome.
Risposta del proprietario
We apologize for the loud snorer but that was out of our control. The customer picked the room and had other choices. We strive to be the best hosts possible as shown by other reviews. It simply goes to show you cannot please some people who wish to complain.

After a long day of travel, Glenn met us at the door, carried our luggage upstairs, and offered us lovely refreshments as we visited about our plans for the next day. The following morning, we enjoyed a wonderful 7-course breakfast, cooked and served with love, as well as a tour of the beautiful grounds. Janice and Glenn made us feel like family from beginning to end. Lovely place; lovely people!

Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A New York Times bestseller
Shes got it all figured out.
Or does she? When it comes to relationships, Remys got a whole set of rules.
Never get too serious. Never let him break your heart. And never, ever date a musician.
But then Remy meets Dexter, and the rules dont seem to apply anymore.
Could it be that shes starting to understand what all those love songs are about?
Remy and Dexter jump off the pages into the hearts of readers, who will wish for a romance like this of their own." —Booklist

The Moon and More
Someone Like You
That Summer
The Truth About Forever
What Happened to Goodbye
"This modern-day romance narrated by a cynical heroine offers a balance of wickedly funny moments and universal teen traumas. High school graduate Remy has some biting commentary about love, including her romance-writer mother's betrothal to a car dealer ('He put one hand on my shoulder, Dad-style, and I tried not to remember all the stepfathers before him that had done the same thing.... They all thought they were permanent, too') and her brother's infatuation with self-improvement guru Jennifer Anne. But when rocker Dexter 'crashes' into her life, her resolve to remain unattached starts to crack. Readers will need to hold on to their hats as they accompany Remy on her whirlwind ride, avoiding, circling and finally surrendering to Cupid's arrows. Almost as memorable as her summer romance with a heartwarmingly flawed suitor is the cast of idiosyncratic characters who watch from the sidelines. There's the trio of Remy's faithful girlfriends, all addicted to 'Xtra Large Zip' Diet Cokes: practical-minded Jess, weepy Lissa, and Chloe, who shares Remy's dark sense of humor as well as Dexter's entourage of fellow band members, as incompetent at managing money as they are at keeping their rental house clean. Those expecting a Cinderella finale for Remy will find a twist consistent with the plot's development. Contrary to any such implication in the title, this one will keep teens up reading. Ages 12-up." Publishers Weekly (Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc.)
Just because Piper's birthday is on Valentine's Day does not mean she's a romantic. In fact, after watching her father and then her stepfather leave, she's pretty sure she doesn't believe in love at all. Then her friends concoct a plan to find them all Valentine's dates, and somehow Piper finds herself with the most popular guy in school. But true love never follows a plan, and a string of heartfelt gifts from a secret admirer has Piper wondering if she might be with the wrong guy.
This "Publishers Weekly" Best Book of the Year from the acclaimed author of "Dreamland" is a captivating novel about a tough-as-nails girl and the unexpectedly charming boy who's determined to soften her up.

...is that they are 'easier' when it comes to severe technical issues. That's b.s.
Now, having said that, my own experience is that I'd still take a Mac over a Wintel machine any damned day of the week. The OS X interface is one of THE most elegant to ever come along.
Still, there has been a bug in various versions of OS X just barely,( and I mean very barely ), addressed by Apple. No 'patch' of any kind has been created for this sometimes intermittent 'glitch' since OS X 10.2x and onwards.
That glitch is Error 95. You will come to know it the minute you try to mount an app, because it will deny you the ability. This is terribly god damned frustrating for the user.
The problem with Error 95, and what makes it so irritating, (besides Apple's dropping the ball in making a backwards compatible patch ), is that it causes different issues on different machines AND any exisiting 'fixes' for it work for some folks and not for others.
Apple needs to return to the old source code and do some damned hard debugging, create a patch, and post it. It has left a very bitter taste in the mouth of many people who turned to OS X as a 'way out' from the hell that is Microware ( which is anything MS creates lol ). Not everyone is like me and some others who have been using computers of various o/s's for a while. And it's one bug MS could use in their attempt to do anti-Apple marketing.
If Apple doesn't come up with sometheing soon,(and telling people to 'upgrade' is NOT a solution!! ), I'm going to grow increasingly loud about this issue wherever I may roam.
Really? Wow.

ENTRIES TAGGED "Strata Rx"
Printing ourselves
At its best, 3D printing can make us more human by making us whole.
Tim O'Reilly recently asked me and some other colleagues which technology seems most like magic to us. There was a thoughtful pause as we each considered the amazing innovations we read about and interact with every day.
I didn't have to think for long. To me, the thing that seems most like magic isn't Siri or self-driving cars or augmented reality displays. It's 3D printing.
My reasons are different than you might think. Yes, it's amazing that, with very little skill, we can manufacture complex objects in our homes and workshops that are made from things like plastic or wood or chocolate or even titanium. This seems an amazing act of conjuring that, just a short time ago, would have been difficult to imagine outside of the "Star Trek" set.
But the thing that makes 3D printing really special is the magic it allows us to perform: the technology is capable of making us more human. Read more…

New York's Failure to Enact Laws Banning Sale of Bear Parts Is Boon to Poachers
The state's failure to enact laws banning the sale of bear gallbladders and bile has allowed New York to become a haven for poachers and profiteers who ship the valuable products overseas for use in traditional Asian medicines, wildlife advocates claim. "Our biggest concern is about New York being used as a laundering point to get gallbladders out of the country," said Adam Roberts, executive vice president of Born Free USA. "They are being shipped out of New York to places like Korea."

Cuatrecasas, Gide report falling London revenues
Readers' comments (2)
Makes no sense whatsoever...article mentions a strong 2011 yet in that year loss was 557k. I guess you call it logic a la Gide.
The London office of the firm made in 2012 four times the loss of 2011... but still made 4 partners ... because "our results have been on track"... hum ... is there someone who could actually provide sensible comments / explanations?
The partners were made up in July this year after what the firm tells us was a positive first six months. Gide has a calendar financial year, and any LLP accounts lag the end of the year by up to nine months.

Book Description:You are at a dinner with someone attractive. She suddenly kisses you. Or he leans unexpectedly across the table and caresses your thigh. Whatever. You know the kind of encounter and the range of possible responses. Consider the kiss. What does it mean, and where does it lead? Does kissing necessarily imply more, and if so how much? These and similar questions of amorous ethics and erotic disquisition are the central to our everyday intimate public lives and they are the lost object of the law of love, the lex amatoria collated and presented here.
