The Security Week That Was: A Recap - April 22-28, 2006
SIW Editor Geoff Kohl gives a weekly surveillance of news shaping your profession
Top Level Shake-up
Central station monitoring company Integrated Alarm is seeing a shake-up at the executive level. The Albany-based company, which has been plagued by falling revenues, will see its two top executives -- Timothy McGinn, chairman and CEO, and Thomas Few Sr., president and vice chairman -- leave the company in May. It may help the company avert its own sale; at least one of Integrated Alarm's investment companies has been calling for the company to put itself on the block.
On the Lighter Side of Things
Andrews Air Force base kicked out all the stops in the search for a perimeter security breach on Thursday morning. Helicopters were put in the air and a full K-9 unit was dispatched in the search for the intruder. Who were they looking for? An Al Qaeda operative bent on attacking Air Force One? A North Korean spy looking for military secrets? Not so fast... This time the culprit seems to have been some sort of large cat -- a bobcat or wildcat, most likely. As of Friday morning, the search for the big meow had yet to bear fruit... or cat litter.
Not as Easy as You'd Think
That's the attitude from many maritime shipping leaders on the topic of automated identification systems (AIS) for maritime vessels. The industry, which has been largely in favor of vessel identification and tracking (there are obvious benefits other than security for these companies) say that there were problems with data set-up and improper installation when the tracking systems were rushed to market. There's also the problem in that many threats do not come from identified vessels, but from smaller vessels like the one that attacked the U.S.S. Cole in the Aden harbor in 2000. Nonetheless, the technology has improved, as have installations, and the Maritime AIS is growing in usage.

Caring for Gemstone Necklaces
Once you've found gemstone necklaces you love, you want to keep them looking their best. Keeping your necklaces clean is the best way to maintain the beautiful shimmer of your favorite gemstone. Unlike necklaces that include only metal, necklaces with a gemstone in them will need to be cleaned in a particular manner, depending on the type of gemstone, to ensure their longevity. Most gemstones used in necklaces are organic in nature and consequently are soft and porous. This type of gemstone will tend to absorb chemical solutions and ammonia, so special care must be taken to clean it. Here are a few tips for proper care and cleaning of gemstone necklaces:
Pearl Necklaces
A pearl is an especially delicate gemstone that should be treated with gentle care. Pearl necklaces should be washed in water to which had been added a mild liquid soap. This will help cleanse and protect the gemstone. Do not use harsh detergents to clean pearl necklaces, as this can damage the pearl. Dry necklaces with this type of gemstone gently with a soft towel.
Crystal Gemstone Necklaces
Necklaces with a crystal gemstone can be cleaned as mentioned above, using mild soapy water. Because crystals are typically harder and more resilient than pearls, they can generally be soaked for a few hours if necessary to clean them thoroughly.
Necklaces with Other Gemstones
Gemstones such as turquoise, lapis lazuli, or malachite are very porous rocks that tend to absorb chemical solutions and ammonia. Therefore, when cleaning necklaces with these gemstone settings, avoid using soap and water. Instead, simply wipe your gemstone necklace down with a soft, damp cloth.

Understanding Ash Wednesday with Fr. Paul Turner - Feb 13,2013
Understanding Ash Wednesday with Fr. Paul Turner is our guest on The Core Business Show with Tim Jacquet. Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent in the Western Christian calendar. Occurring 46 days before Easter, it is a moveable fast that can fall as early as February 4 and as late as March 10. According to the canonical gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke; Jesus spent 40 days fasting in the desert, where he endured temptation by Satan. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of this 40-day liturgical period of prayer and fasting. Ash Wednesday derives its name from the practice of placing ashes on the foreheads of adherents as a reminder and celebration of human mortality, and as a sign of mourning and repentance to God. The ashes used are typically gathered from the burning of the palms from the previous years Palm Sunday.

Do These Green Beauty Products Actually Work?
Raw Makeup
Click through the gallery to see which eco-conscious products actually work!
THE CLAIM Created by Gisele Bündchen's makeup artist Rose-Marie Swift, the RMS cream makeup line (it includes everything from foundation to lip stains) contains unprocessed, raw, food-grade organic ingredients like coconut oil and cocoa butter.
THE EXPERT SAYS "All the products have a sheen to them that looks fresh but not too shimmery," says makeup artist Nick Barose. "The sheer eye shadows are especially nice for creating a sexy smoky eye."
OUR VERDICT Greening our makeup bag has been a challenge (usually because the mineral pigments leave an ashy cast or don't blend well), but these pearlescent balms look as pretty on our skin as they do in the pots.
TRY IT YOURSELF Clockwise, RMS Beauty Beauty Lip 2 Cheek in Smile, $36. Cream eye shadows in Magnetic and Solar, $28 each. Living Luminizer, $38. All available at rmsbeauty.com.
Food for Your Face
THE CLAIM With an ingredient list that reads like a green juice cleanse -- brussels sprouts! kale! asparagus! -- Dr. Alkaitis's veggie mask aims to soothe dry and irritated skin. It's no surprise that the namesake creator has a history in molecular biology and pharmacognosy (the study of the medicinal property of plants).
THE EXPERT SAYS "It's loaded with vitamins and nutrients that will make your skin glow," says N.Y.C. dermatologist Francesca Fusco. "I'd recommend it to patients with sensitive or inflamed skin that can't tolerate traditional masks."
OUR VERDICT The smell is a little funky (due to the absence of dyes and perfumes), but after seeing our radiant skin, this mask has a permanent place in our skin care regimen.
TRY IT YOURSELF Alkaitis Universal Organic mask, $45; alkaitis.com.
Natural Teeth Whitener
THE CLAIM This fluoride-free toothpaste by Dentisse combines breath-freshening peppermint oil with two types of clay -- kaolin and bentonite -- to gently remove surface stains.
THE EXPERT SAYS "It's like giving your teeth a spa treatment," says Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., dentist Jason Olitsky.
OUR VERDICT With its intense minty flavor, we definitely felt like we got a deep clean. But after using it for two weeks, the coffee stains on our front teeth faded only slightly.
Dentisse Natural Reflection toothpaste, $17; dentisse.com.
Peel-Off Nail Polish
THE CLAIM Say goodbye to stinky nail polishes and noxious removers. Sula's water-based lacquer lasts three to five days and can be peeled off as soon as it starts to chip. The formula also contains strengthening nutrients like provitamin B5, previously found only in hair products.
THE EXPERT SAYS "Skipping nail polish remover will make the nail beds less dry, " says New York manicurist Jin Soon Choi. "I also love the shade range. Lots of fun brights!"
OUR VERDICT Perfect for nail fanatics like us, who switch up our shade daily. But if you're hoping to get a full week's wear out of your mani, you'll need to reapply a clear topcoat every day.
Sula Paint & Peel polish in Azur and Kelly, $9; sulabeauty.com.
Puffy-Eye Cure
THE CLAIM With anti-inflammatory honey and moisturizing soybean extracts, Tarte's under eye treatment (available in four shades) promises a 56 percent reduction in puffiness after four weeks. The long-lasting mineral pigments instantly conceal dark circles and soften wrinkles.
THE EXPERT SAYS "I'd call this product semi natural," says cosmetic chemist Ni'Kita Wilson. "While the natural ingredients can alleviate some inflammation, the tetrapeptide-14 (a synthetic protein) is really responsible for the greatest reduction in puffiness."
OUR VERDICT Once we broke the habit of applying concealer with our fingers (this industrial-strength formula requires the blending power of synthetic bristles), we loved that it gave our swollen eyes an instant fix. Plus it camouflaged discoloration, and hid fine lines.
Tarte Dark Circle Defense, $32 (including brush); sephora.com.
Lip Scrub
THE CLAIM Think of it as a little miracle for your chapped lips: Tiny sugar crystals are suspended in a shea butter base to soften lips as they gently slough off flaky skin.
THE EXPERT SAYS "Women tend to think they can take a packet of sugar to exfoliate their lips, but used alone, sugar can be too rough," says Dr. Fusco. "This is a gentle yet effective alternative."
OUR VERDICT We've been scrubbing three times a day just because it feels so darn good. Another bonus: It makes lips look fuller.
Wholearth certified organic 2-in-1 lip scrub & balm, $22; wholearthbeauty.com.
Firming Body Cream
THE CLAIM Free from sulfates, parabens and synthetic fragrance, Ren's moisturizer relies on "bioactives" sourced from wild yam, sea-buckthorn-berry oil and soybean extract that aim to eliminate sagginess.
THE EXPERT SAYS "There are several ingredients in this that may give a temporary tightening to the skin," says Dr. Fusco. "But I haven't found any hard data in medical peer-reviewed journals about their long-term firming benefits."
OUR VERDICT Did it tighten every ripple on our body? No. But skin looked hydrated and smooth. And we are totally addicted to its delicate sweet scent and instant absorbability.
Ren Wild Yam firming body cream, $57; renskincare.com.
Hypo-Allergenic Laundry Ball
THE CLAIM Do your laundry -- without detergent. The Ecowasbal filled with ceramic beads creates ions that release the grime. It works with any type of fabric and lasts 1,000 cycles.
THE EXPERT SAYS Washing machines are one of the biggest water users in a home, especially if you run an extra rinse cycle after using too much detergent.
OUR VERDICT It doesn't have the stain-fighting ability of a liquid soap, but our clothes felt and smelled refreshed.
Greenhabits Amsterdam Ecowasbal, $38; thefutureperfect.com.

In a recent opinion piece for The Daily Beast, Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women's Issues Melanne Verveer and Ambassador Peter Westmacott, the U.K.'s Ambassador to the United States, addressed the use of sexual assault as a weapon. The text of their opinion piece, which appeared on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, appears below.
"Nearly 40,000 people have died already in Syria's civil war, and close to 100 are still being killed each day. Homes, hospitals, water infrastructure, and sanitation systems have been destroyed. But one element of this ongoing brutality has been largely overlooked in the media: the appalling sexual violence being visited on the Syrian people by government and militia forces.

How To Roast a Leg of Lamb: The Simplest, Easiest Method
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
You can have the turkey. Leave the ham. Prime rib — what's that? In my house, leg of lamb is the celebratory roast. I love its tenderness and flavor, and it is of course the high season for lamb right now, as lamb figures prominently on both the Passover and Easter tables.
Have you ever roasted a leg of lamb? It may sound intimidating, but the sweet little secret is that leg of lamb is actually one of the easiest, most foolproof cuts of meat to cook. Here's our remarkably simple, fuss-free approach to cooking a leg of lamb. It will turn out perfectly every time.
How To Bake a Honey-Glazed Ham
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
A couple of weeks ago my grandmother came to visit, and I threw a lunch for her and my family. My family being what it is, this meant we had 17 people to feed (a very normal Sunday lunch!). I decided to fall back on ham, that oh-so-easy of lunch dishes, and I found myself wondering why I don't serve it more often.
If you too have some large lunches and brunches in your near future, let me show you how to buy and bake a ham, and finish it with a honey-balsamic glaze. It's as easy as 1-2-3, and so delicious too.
Passover Recipe: Chicken Soup with Shallot-Shiitake Matzo Balls
Recipes from The Kitchn
I am all for getting creative in the kitchen. But sometimes, you just don't want to mess around with a classic. Take chicken soup. Whether you call it "goldene yoich" (golden broth in Yiddish), "Jewish Penicillin," or just plain old soup, not much can top the basic, soul-satisfying combination of tender chicken, carrots, celery, and onions swimming in soothing broth.
Besides, people tend to get a little particular about what foods they expect to see on the Passover table. So when the holiday rolls around, I make sure to give my friends and family what they want: pure, unadulterated, intoxicatingly fragrant chicken soup. When it comes to the matzo balls, however, I feel much more comfortable experimenting. Made from little more than eggs, matzo meal, and a little seltzer for lift, they make the perfect blank canvas for adding flavor.

When Reading a Great Novel Makes Me Want to Cook
Kitchen Diary: Anne in South Carolina
I love food. I like to eat it, cook it, shop for it, think about it... and even, very occasionally, grow it. I also love to read. In the middle of a good book, no matter how compelling the story, I often get distracted by mentions of food. Years ago, reading John Irving's A Son of the Circus, a brief reference to some street food sent me running to the kitchen to try to make patties with chickpeas, potatoes and green peas. Those budget-friendly veggie burgers made a regular appearance at mealtimes for a while. (Come to think of it, I need to make those again. Too bad I never wrote down a recipe.)
Recently, I was reading another novel and discovered Chicken Marbella.

10 Ways to Make Chicken Thighs Your Dinner BFF
Last year Emma declared 2013 the year of the chicken thigh, but I think this sentiment still holds strong for 2014. Yes, chicken thighs have more fat in them than chicken breasts, but that's what makes them so easy and wonderful to use in recipes. Chicken thighs also tend to be a little cheaper at the grocery store, so they're perfect for delicious yet affordable weeknight meals. What's not to love?

Burgers and fries are the best, cost a little more than the other fast food joints but is well worth it.
Wife and I stopped the other night. We each ordered a sandwich and we shared an order of fries. The sandwiches are made to order so you get what you want on your burgers and the fries are large portions. The sandwiches were great and there were enough fries we brought alot home even though we only ordered a regular...
Its nothing fancy but they have GR8 tasting burgers & fries!! I got the double burger with the usual condiments, i.e. ketchup, mustard, pickle & onion. Order came up pretty quick and boy was it yummy, fries were well cooked and tasty. You can get any condiments you want at no additional cost. Plain paper wrapper but it keeps cost...
It's a quirky place with good hamburgers. I have had better but they are fine. The place is fun and the fries are really really good.
There are a lot of places that serve burgers. This one does it better than most. Portion size is reasonable for the dollar paid and always be careful when you order french fries they certainly act a lot and was singleserving.
Try the fries with cajun seasoning. Plan on sharing as they give you more than your fair share of fries.
Fantastic, I just love the hamburg and the fries are the best hands down you get so many that a regular order feeds my family of 4. the soda machine is fun they have more options than I ever thought possible, the prices aren't that bad, 3.85 for a little hamburg which means just one patty and that is enough....
Prices are expensive for a hamburger joint, but its worth it. Burgers are big and the fries are absolutely fantastic!! You get a ton of fries with a small order and they are made fresh when you place the order! Parking is horrible, but worth the frustration.

DETROIT — The Miami RedHawks displayed their style of play against Ferris State on Saturday, edging the Bulldogs 2-1 in the CCHA tournament consolation game.
Miami and Ferris State took the ice both looking to rebound from tough losses. Ferris State lost a heartbreaker in overtime against Northern Michigan, while Miami was blown out 5-1 against Michigan. Because of that, Miami head coach Enrico Blasi decided to go with Connor Knapp in goal after Cody Reichard gave up five goals to Michigan yesterday.
Neither team established any offense in the first period. Miami outshot Ferris State 8-7, but both teams' shots were scattered throughout the period.
Miami got on the board at 4:44 in the second period when Chris Wideman blasted a slap shot from the top of the circles that went off of the cross bar and went right off of Steve Mason for the goal. The goal was Mason's first collegiate goal of his career.
"I think we came out tentative and played tentative until Miami scored the first goal," said Bulldogs head coach Bob Daniels. "Then I think we shifted gears from being nervous about winning to playing to win."
Justin Vaive was called for interference with 6:50 to play in the second period, putting Ferris State on the power play.
Ferris State capitalized with the man advantage on a controversial goal by Casey Haines. The Bulldogs set up in the RedHawks' zone when the puck came to Blair Riley on the left wing boards. Riley threw the puck to the net and the puck deflected off of Casey Haines' skate past Connor Knapp. The play was originally ruled no goal but after a review, the referees determined that Haines did not purposely kick the puck in, making the play a good goal.
Miami controlled the puck from that point on. At even strength, the RedHawks were looked like they were on the power play the way the moved the puck and kept possession.
With the game clock winding down, Miami turned up the pressure on Pat Nagel and would get rewarded.
Jarod Palmer broke the tie with his 19th goal at 15:56 in the third period. Palmer faked a slap shot just inside the blue line, walked around a sliding Bulldog defender, and then snapped a quick shot past Nagel. Wideman earned his second assist of the night on the play.
"It was kind of a jumbled play," said Palmer. "Wideman made a nice pass to me at the point. I just pushed it to the middle and got lucky."
The Bulldogs pulled Nagel for the extra attacker with just under two minutes to go in the game. Miami kept the puck along the boards and out of harm's way while facing six skaters for Ferris State.
Ferris State's NCAA tournament hopes hang in limbo with a pair of losses at the Joe. The RedHawks claimed third place in the CCHA tournament, while possibly improving their chances to the No. 1 overall seed in next week's NCAA tournament.
"If this team ends up being number one seed overall, it's a pretty good season," Blasi said. "You want to go into the tournament on a winning note and I'm real proud of our guys."

Get paid to meet your spend via Big Crumbs12
We all know that the quickest way to rake in miles and points is through credit card sign up bonuses. Recently some credit card issuers have raised the spending requirement to receive these bonuses which can make it a bit more challenging. Meeting the spend requirement for the credit card should be a deciding factor in whether or not you apply for a card. That being said, there are some great tricks and methods to help you meet the spend. Today I want to talk about one of them: buying Amex gift cards via Big Crumbs. Not only does this help you meet your spend, but Big Crumbs will give you 1.6% cash back! I like getting paid.
I know that with my Citi AAdvantage cards, Citi will treat purchasing Amex gift cards as a cash advance. That means an additional fee. No good for me. I'm not aware how Citi handles their other cards, but I would imagine it's the same. However, Chase hasn't treated my Amex gift cards as a cash advance. That's huge because Chase cards happen to be my fav. That means I have some Chase spending requirements that I need to meet. Bring it. I always start small ($100) and make sure that my bank doesn't treat my purchase as a cash advance. You can order up to $5,000 in gift cards, but that is a lot of cash tied up in gift cards (for me).
Also, don't abuse this deal if you are using an American Express rewards credit card to buy the Amex gift cards. American Express will take notice and that's the kind of attention you don't need. IMHO it would take A LOT of buying Amex gift cards to get noticed, but there are some miles & points loving freaks out there. ME included.
There is no transaction fee on Amex gift cards. That's huge. I have gotten gift cards in the past as gifts and there was a $3 fee every time I used the card. You can pretty much use these gift cards anywhere credit cards are accepted. The funds will never expire. No worries there. Here is the link to all the terms and conditions.
Here's the skinny
You will need to shop through the Big Crumbs shopping portal so you can get the 1.6% cash back. You will have to create an account if you don't have one.
Then search "American Express gift cards".
Click on the personal Amex gift card link. You will then be directed to the American Express site.
Once on the American Express site, click "order now". You will then be directed to where you can order the amounts that you would like. Easy.
As you can see, there is a $3.95 charge per card order. Pennies. There is also a shipping fee of $8.95. Try these free shipping Amex codes on for size:
- GEN374 – valid through 5/8/12
- GEN372 – valid through 2/14/12
It usually takes 4-6 weeks for to the credit from Big Crumbs, but don't worry, it'll come.
Edit: Shipping codes aren't working through shopping portals.
Meeting the spend requirements on reward cards can be stressful, but this is a great tip to help ease some of the pressure. Only buy the amount of Amex gift cards that you feel comfortable with. Enjoy getting paid as you meet you spending equirements.
P.S. There is a way to pay yourself with Amex gift cards by setting up a personal Square account. I personally have chosen not to go down this road.
— Geoff Whitmore

2007 UTEP Miners football preview
UTEP Miners
2006 Record: (5-7, 3-5)
Starters Returning: 10 (7 offense, 3 defense, 0 specialists)
Offensive Starters Lost: QB Jordan Palmer, WR Johnnie Lee Higgins, WR Daniel Robinson, OL Andy Smith
Offensive Starters Returning: RB Marcus Thomas, WR Joe West, TE Jake Sears, OL Oniel Cousins, OL Robby Felix, OL Tyler Ribitzki, OL James Riley
Defensive Starters Lost: DE Alfonso Auelua, DE Alex Obomese, DT Justin Hanel, DT Zach West, LB Josh Chamois, LB Troy Collavo, CB Bryant Tisdale, S Joe Fleskoski
Defensive Starters Returning: LB Emeri Spence, CB Josh Ferguson, S Quintin Demps
Starting Specialists Lost: K Reagan Schneider, P Ryan Hotchkiss
Starting Specialists Returning: none
Over the last few years UTEP has become very dependent on quarterback Jordan Palmer. Now he is gone and the Miners must look elsewhere for offensive production. For a team that ranked fifth in the nation in passing offense and 116 th in rushing offense, there are major changes that need to be made. Coach Mike Price wants to get the running game going, but how is a team that is not used to running going to react?
2007 UTEP Offense:
With Palmer and his favorite target Johnnie Lee Higgins no longer in El Paso, the offensive attack suddenly is going through Marcus Thomas. The 6-1 senior tailback only rushed for 513 yards last year, but he rarely got a chance in the ground game. Behind Thomas is Oregon transfer Terrell Jackson and sophomores Donald Buckram and Jason Williams. There is the potential for a lot of firepower in that fearsome foursome and, with an experienced offensive line, the running game will rank nowhere near 116 th in the nation this year.
Yet, there is still that little problem of replacing Palmer and Higgins. Five quarterbacks are fighting for minutes and none of them have any experience. Freshman pocket passer Trevor Vittatoe is the likely candidate to get the nod, but James Thomas, Kyle Wright, Brandis Dew and wide receiver Lorne Sam will continue to get looks. Sam, who caught 12 passes last year, is more valuable as a receiver. Joe West is the leading returning receiver with 496 yards, but it could be a couple new faces that help replace the production of Higgins and Daniel Robinson. Sophomore Jeff Moturi only caught one pass in 2006, but has the speed to stretch the field. The biggest newcomer may end up being Fred Rouse. The Florida State transfer was a very highly touted recruit out of high school and has the talent to be a magnificent player over the next three years.
2007 UTEP Defense:
The defensive line gave up 152 rushing yards per game last season. Thus, losing four starters cannot be that bad of a thing. Tackle James Olalekan leads the returning players with a whopping 13 tackles last year. Junior College transfers JaBoy Leomiti and Jason Boyce will be asked to provide experience to a vastly inexperienced group. Experience is not a concern at linebacker. Jeremy Jones broke his leg two games into last season after recording second-team All C-USA accolades in 2005 and will return to his leadership role this season. Emeri Spence returns after starting seven games and Adam Vincent is eligible after transferring from Arizona State. Led by junior college transfers Nuuese Punimata and Torrey Huckaby, depth is not an issue either.
The secondary may have given up a slew of yards and lost two starters, but it could end up to be the strength of the Miners defense. Senior Quintin Demps is a quality free safety and sophomore Braxton Amy is the star of the future. Amy returns to his natural position after starting five games at linebacker last year. Returning starting cornerback Josh Ferguson is an experienced player, but finding his fellow corner is a little more difficult. Senior Tim McCullouch redshirted in 2006 and is expected to get the job, but he will find some competition from sophomores Cornelius Brown and Lance Castleberry.
The Bottom Line for the Miners:
There are a lot of new players on this UTEP squad. Sometimes that can be a good thing, but it will take some time for the team to come together and show what it can really do. On both sides of the ball, the running game is important. If the offense can develop a consistent running attack, the Miners can control the game and not have to put pressure on the inexperienced quarterbacks. The new front four on the defensive end needs to come around quickly to revitalize what was a pretty pathetic defense in 2006.

Introducing myself and my journal: Dahope
About Me:
My names are Elizabeth Akinyi Osewe, a Kenyan citizen, single mother to 4 lovely children, aged between 18 and 6 years. A social worker by profession and a strong advocate of women's rights, especially in matters partaining to HIV/AIDS policies. I have travelled around the world and interacted with different persons, cultures and personalities. I speak English, Swahili, Dholuo and Norwegian, since I have lived in Norway for some remarkable number of years. I have worked with different organizations locally, regionally and internationally to uplift the lives of women, especially grassroot women, who have no voice and hence very delighted to be part of this forum, where women issues are discussed and published as I believe that whatever has been researched and documented, will stay with us for a long time. I believe that women are the backborne of so much and could change the world to a better place if we all were given the opportunity to showcase what we have. In our own small or a big ways I believe that every woman has something that is unique and only meant for her, but which could be of a much greater benefit to her fellow women and the society as a whole. In short Am happy and lucky to be part of this dream that has turned out to be a reality.
My Passions:
Advocacy on Women's Rights
My Challenges:
Maintaining Healthy Relationships with Men
My Vision for the Future:
A Cure for the HI Virus

Im not the one who didn't give people a choice about Moonkin so take it up with Blizzard, not me.
I didn't actually know about the eclipse system. If I did, I wouldn't have.
It's also not a good system and that is the most popular opinion.
Moonkin form with choice of form is a an opinion of a very small minority.
I see what you are trying to do but the form and the eclipse system are two different things. You can't compare them. The form is purely graphical where the eclipse system is actual gameplay and where moonkins fail and fail hard. Blizzard never meant for people to stay in solar as much as we do but its the only way to do it and stay competitive.

The Tao of Love and Sexby Jolan Chang
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Two thousand years ago, at a time when the Christian West was frantically repressing sexuality, the Chinese were enjoying an erotic life that fused the sensual and the spiritual, in which sexual guilt and sexual aberrations like sadism and masochism were all but absent. This bestselling book by a leading modern exponent of Taoism makes that erotic life available to all who seek it. With its emphasis on male restraint and female pleasure and its healing vision of sex as an expression of a deeper cosmic balance, The Tao of Love and Sex offers us nothing less than a new model of loving, at once exciting and serene, passionate and compassionate.
In this bestseller, Jolan Chang explains how the ancient philosophy of Taoism can be applied to modern sex techniques.
Jolan Chang explains how the ancient philosophy of Taoism can be applied to modern sex techniques. "I have learned by experience that the most effective way to secure sufficient love for both men and women is to show women how to influence men gently to become more adequate lovers."-Jolan Chang

Josh Vitters didn't get a long look by the Caracas Lions this winter. He was released yesterday and returns home
Josh Vitters didn't get a long look by the Caracas Lions this winter. He was released yesterday and returns home
today, according to team president Luis Avila in a story reported by El Universal in Venezuela. Vitters was 0-for-7 in two games in Caracas, last playing on Nov. 18. He hit .304 with 17 home runs for Triple-A Iowa last season but batted only .121 with two homers in 36 games for the Cubs. He appears headed to a return to Iowa in 2013 as Cubs GM Jed Hoyer explores other third base options. Two arbitration-eligible third basemen (Ian Stewart and Luis Valbuena) remain on the roster leading into the Friday deadline to tender contracts and the Cubs are reportedly in negotiations with free-agent infielder Jeff Keppinger. He hits right-handed and could serve as a complement to the left-handed-hitting Valbuena or Stewart. Rebuilding Vitters' confidence could be the first order of business next spring, if the former first-round pick isn't traded or dumped before then.

See and share Beautiful Nature Photos and amazing photos of interesting places
These Child Age poems are examples of Age poems about Child. These are the best examples of Child Age poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
Where cradled canyons sing
Of ebony wood in the forest
There lies a gurgling spring
Where cockcrows sing their chorus
To the melody of singsong birds
There I've concealed my sensuous words
Filled with befitted signs
The saccharine whiff of my designs
Come to me my mortal youth
To the wild realm of your truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only your tears be found
Where the fogs of night are fountains
Spills of glistened moon ignite
By distant silhouette mountains
We dance with passion of fight
Entwining ancient stance
Mingling hand in hand we dance
Till the mountains smile on high
Near and far we spring
To pursue the realest of dreams
While the world cries at its seams
Anxious in trouble to cling
Come to me my mortal youth
To the wild realm of your truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only your tears be found
To where the ridges merry make
From the beaks of wooden bright
In sparkly pools the ghouls awake
That scarce to stir our night
We watch for seekers down under
Muttering secrets in their soul
We bid them lucks of shivers
Dipping gently in
From reeds that hide a tear of a foal
Under the gentle rivers
Come to me my mortal youth
To the wild realm of your truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only your tears be found
Far away she shall ever churn
The taciturn eyed
She'll listen no more to turn
To the working mills beside
Or the scrubbing of the barn
May peace weave in her song
She shall wave in the yarn
To a haven known as Belong
Come to me my mortal youth
To the wild realm of your truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only your tears be found
For she comes, the mortal youth
To the wild realm of her truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only her tears be found
His daddy is fighting in Iraq.
His mommy is fighting tears.
His brother is fighting death.
He is fighting his desolation and fears.
Friends are but a dream
and companions are an illusion.
School is a concentration camp,
but he stands, though alone, in the midst of confusion.
His training school is loneliness.
His milestones are fears, thrust in lies.
His only weapon is faith
and his bullets are soft "hallelujah" cries.
Strength left his fragile body
and he lost the fight in life so coy,
yet on his knees he conquered agony
and I call him the little soldier boy.
God is always love
Forever seek the kingdom;
Praise the creator
Keep giving what you can give
Please endure until the end
Beautiful Heavens
Protecting the meek ones earth
Watching over us
Helping us to cope with life
Comforted with hope and trust
When you find rhythm
You find your hearts inner core
Celebrate the times
Make them better than before
Reminisce and dance all night
They met at first around sixteen,while they were in their teens.
A young man tall and handsome, a girl with many dreams.
Years later they did meet again this time he was smitten.
It took some time to hook this girl, eventually their history written.
He had a plan to marry her and move her from her home.
She'd have to leave her roots, the only thing she'd known.
Leave her home and family was what she had to do,
The love they shared was eternal even though it 'twas brand new.
This love they shared was a gift,their faith was also strong
They both loved many similar things like fishing, books and song.
Seven children blessed their lives, they started their own tree
So strong this love they shared, became one large family.
Both worked hard to raise them, devoted to each one,
They shared their love equally to each daughter and each son.
Education and faith were important, practiced with daily prayer
They fed and clothed this family with love and tremendous care
Each child was very different and different paths they took.
Educators, artists, builders, Lawyers and even cooks.
Each child found their partners, some added children to each branch.
All love music, all loved to read, a few even like to dance.
Their children had more children and the two were greatly blessed,
With lovely grandchildren with many traits that both these two possessed
What remained from the love they shared twas passed down through the line
A love this strong must be shared and it surpassed all time
Four generations have now developed from these two whose love began
So many years before when both had shared a plan.
Each twig shares a piece and resembles one or the other
For this love story that's been described was about a Father and Mother
I'd love to say they share a life together here today
But God had different plans in mind, for one he took away
The void he left was devastating to everyone you see
Hardest on the one for which he shared atop the tree
The plan these two created at the time they were entwined
Continues on by one so strong , who giveth all of her time
To the tree these two created which grows branches to this day
The love created by these two shall never go
Sometimes I am happy, sometimes I am sad.
Sometime I sing, sometimes I stammer
Sometimes I dance on the music of my soul, Sometimes I dance on the fingers of
one single person
Sometimes I expect so much from others; sometime I myself can't meet my own
Sometime I make fun of others and feel bad later, sometimes life makes fun of me
and I smile
Sometime I win and sometimes I lose, sometimes I don't even understand whether I
won or lost.
Sometimes I laugh as if whole world is with me,
Sometimes I cry as if I am alone wandering in a strange land
Sometimes I give up so easily
Sometimes I work so hard that no one can stop me to achieve what I want
Sometimes I am dynamic person, who wants to change the world,
And sometimes I am a kid who expects anyone to embrace him tightly.
Sometimes I feel happy about the achievement of my enemy
Sometime I feel dejected with my own success.
Sometimes I help others and show them the right path
Sometimes I feel totally helpless and don't know where to go
Sometimes I ask god to please give my past back
Sometimes I pray to show me the way forward
Life is composed of SOMETIMES and I just flow with that.
U admit or not but you are also sailing on the same boat.
So join me and enjoy it EVERYTIME as SOMETIMES life is very short!
They needed help
Walking alone in the dark.
The man.
The child.
A broken down car.
The child frightened,
But not understanding
The terror
That would soon
Come her way.
Her parents petrified
That their baby was gone,
Over forbidden images
That crowded their way
Past ice cream sundays
And birthday parties
And wedding days.
A passer-by.
A doer of good deeds.
He stops.
He sees.
He looks into
the little girl's eyes.
The girl speaks,
"This is not my dad"
And the coward
who took her,
He runs.
He hides.
The passer-by,
Believing he saved
A child
From a long, cold walk,
In reality
Saved a child
From a long, cold death.
Dedicated to my Dad Jerry W. Niday 3/20/1952 - 6/18/2013
I am who I am because of him
He's the reason for my son's name
He gave me my courage & my strength
To stand tall even when standing wasn't easy
Stand for the ones who can't
To think and fend for myself
I'm my Daddy made over
Taught me to fight back
To never back down
How to pick myself back up
When I've been knocked down
Fight for what I believe
I'm my Daddy made over
He gave me my stubbornness
Gave me my pride
Gave me my temper
Taught me not to take crap
To speak my mind no matter who
Work for what I want
I'm my Daddy made over
How to keep my emotions in check
How to handle large amounts of pain
When in trouble he always had my back
He knew how my mind worked better than anyone
I got it from him
I'm my Daddy made over
Even though he's gone
I'll stand and continue on
I may stumble I may fall
May even get hurt along the way
But I'll pick myself back up
I'll dust myself off and stand tall
I'm honored and proud to say
I'm my Daddy made over
Sabrina Niday Hansel
To be called ..
~ Grandma is a Honor ~
I have been blessed with 4 Grandchildren

If you think not ~~ Take a look at the Mom
That girl can stop Traffic
after raising three and still~
"Inspired by the gift and loss of Grandchildren "
May our precious " Kaleb " softly rest where Angels only Dwell
This is a poem about the future I'd love to have with the boy of my dreams.
None of this has actually happened yet (besides us falling in love with eachother) but it's how I would like it to happen.
Once upon a time, I became the luckiest girl in the world. I fell in love with a gorgeous boy with blue eyes, and he actually loved me back. He was like my prince, he treated me like his princess and would do anything for me. Today, we're united as King and Queen. It's been years, but walking down the aisle I'm still staring at the cutest, most perfect guy I've ever seen. When our lips finally meet after parting to say "I do", it tastes like Heaven.
Once upon a time, I married a gorgeous boy with blue eyes. And today, I saw those perfect blue eyes light up when he first held our little girl in his arms. She's got her Daddy's blue eyes and just a little bit of her Momma's brown hair. She's going to be spoiled and loved more than possible. She'll know we support her no matter what, and she can tell us everything. It will be perfect.
Once upon a time, one set of blue eyes became two, and we were made into a family. Now, that second pair of blue eyes is walking out the door to college, with a suitcase in one hand and a boy's hand in the other. He better love her and treat her just as well as her Daddy does.
Once upon a time, I fell in love with a gorgeous boy with blue eyes. His hair has dulled and grayed but his eyes are the same, and they've seen a lifetime's worth of happiness and love. My baby had babies with the boy she walked out the door with, and I can tell she loves them as much as we loved her. Now it's her time to live.
A lonely tree stands in a field
Branches entwined in one
And as those branches come to life
They reach up to the sun
This tree with all it's energy
just like a woman so it be
It's branches swaying in the breeze
just like a mother's offspring, these
And so the lonely tree does age
The human kind out living
But we all end up just the same
Our flesh to earth be giving
And thus our lives all end the same
No matter what we be
Some have long lives, some much less
In life's sweet mystery

Ne mogu da podnesem pomisao da mi život tako brzo prolazi, a u stvari ga ne proživljavam.
(via blue-dreamer)
Onda se usred svih tih suza, sluzi i unutrašnje oluje uobliče dva posve jasna pitanja: šta ću ako nikada ne nazove? I kakva će
korist biti od toga ako nazove?
Please help!
Donate, pray.
States of emergency have been declared in parts of Bosnia, Croatia and Serbia after the heaviest rain and worst floods since records began 120 years ago. Overflowing rivers have burst into towns and villages, cutting off whole communities, while landslides have buried houses. Thousands of homes are without electricity. In most smaller towns the water is contaminated.
Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Croatia are in complete collapse!
Due to heavy rain, rivers are flooding everything in their way. Villages, cities, parts of the countries are completely cut off from the rest of the world with no health, food, water or hygiene supplies!
People of Balkans have gone through so much in the last 20 years (wars, separation, destruction…), they have lost everything and are finding themselves in a situation where they have to build everything once again.
Babies. Toddlers. Teenagers. Grown ups. Men. Women. Grandmothers. Grandfathers.
Thousands of people have found themselves homeless and hopeless.
Cities, buildings, homes, factories - all under water.
A man shouting "I have lost everything!" through tears and screams… broke my heart.
Can you imagine losing everything you've worked for, everything you've given up to give your children something?
People of Balkans are strong, they have survived much. But we need your prayers tonight, we need your help. Do not look away from this, I beg. Pray, donate. I will try to find ways for you to donate a few dollars to help. Until then, pray, pray and pray!
God bless and pray for Balkans! <3
Pozdrav svim mojim Balkancima, budimo svi jedni drugima u mislima i molitvama.

Spritz On The Sparkle
While we've been resisting the inevitable holiday shopping we have to do over the next week (on our agenda: children's gifts for two little girls under three and some soccer paraphernalia for our boyfriend's brother-in-law), there is one thing we've been looking forward to since December got under way: holiday parties. We're happy to report that we've got our first such soirée this weekend, a casual affair with a dress code that's been specified as "holiday fancypants." That said, we'll be sporting a black circle skirt and a new white angora sweater—with satin bows and pearls!—and adding a little additional sparkle to our skin courtesy of this season's latest round of shimmer powders. But these aren't your average gold-flecked compacts. Both Givenchy's L'Or Céleste Starry Powder and Guerlain's Vol de Nuit Powder Spray feature loose, light-reflecting pigments encased in retro-inspired bottles with black mesh atomizers that release a mist of subtly scented powder for an iridescent glow on limbs, décolletage, and cheekbones. The two formulas also add a pretty sparkle to hair when spritzed onto strands sparingly—which should work well with the satin bow-tied ponytail we're planning on breaking out for the occasion. They want holiday fancypants? We'll give them holiday fancypants.

Vasily Radlov
Vasily Vasilievich Radlov or Friedrich Wilhelm Radloff (Russian: Васи́лий Васи́льевич Ра́длов; 17 January [O.S. 5 January] 1837, Berlin – 12 May 1918, Petrograd) was a German-born Russian founder of Turkology, a scientific study of Turkic peoples.
Working as a schoolteacher in Barnaul, Radlov became interested in the native peoples of Siberia and published his ethnographic findings in the influential monograph From Siberia (1884). From 1866 to 1907, he translated and released a number of monuments of Turkic folklore. Most importantly, he was the first to publish the Orhon inscriptions. Four volumes of his comparative dictionary of Turkic languages followed in 1893 to 1911. Radlov helped establish the Russian Museum of Ethnography and was in charge of the Asiatic Museum in St. Petersburg from 1884 to 1894.
During the Stalinist repressions of the late 1930s, the NKVD and state science apparatus accused the late (ethnically German) Radloff of Panturkism. A perceived connection with the long-dead Radloff was treated as incriminating evidence against Orientalists and Turkologists, some of whom - including A. N. Samoilovich, in 1938 - were executed.

Oh noes! I hate hearing about rifts between parents and children. I mean, we complain about them when they're little sometimes, or at least about the constant demand they are on our energy and attention, but we love our kids.
It's hard to imagine them growing up, only for us not to have anything to do with them. But it seems like that's what happened for Mark Wahlberg. On an appearance with Live! with Kelly and Michael this week, the A-list actor and former underwear model told the hosts, "My mom's not speaking to me right now."
He continued, "It's been like that from day one," but did not elaborate on what day one meant. In fact, he didn't give any other details, but did seem uncomfortable with having revealed even that much.
Kelly Ripa, bless her heart, tried to overcome the awkwardness by explaining, "The mother always likes the one who's doing least well the most."
Wahlberg bit back, "Oh that's it, I gotta do that."
Does this mean that Mother Wahlberg doesn't even have a relationship with her four grandchildren that call her son dad? Mark and his wife Rhea Durham have four kids together -- Ella Rae (10), Michael Robert (7), Brendan Joseph (5), and Grace Margaret (3).
My mom is so crazy about my kids, I'm pretty sure she'd put up with me even if she hated me (she doesn't) to get to them. I can't imagine a world in which my mom didn't speak to me -- no matter what the reason.
Whatever happened there, I hope that it gets patched up somehow. It sucks when close family members can't even be civil to each other.
How often do you talk to your mom?
Image via kellyandmichael/Instagram
Not all family wants to be close.
While my mother lived with me until her death I spoke to my father infrequently starting with the divorce when I was 12. There were often years between conversations and one great gap of 28 years. His choice and truthfully I did not miss him at all.
My husband speaks to his mom, who lives in town, twice a year if that because she spends every conversation running him down and complaining because he isn't like his brother. Of course the brother also doesn't call because he got tired of being compared unfavorably to my husband. Their mother is a bitter, nasty toxic woman who alienated her sons and has no right to expect anything from them at all.
Blood does not mean one has to associate with toxic people. We need to stop trying to shame people who do not have a close relationship with their parents or their children. People have no idea why they are estranged and no right to try and judge the situation as one that needs to be changed.
I have a really rough relationship with my mom. I have forgiven her for the past and try my best to have a healthy relationship with her and step back when I need a break. Even when things are rough I don't believe I have any right to stand in the way of my mom's relationship with her grandson. She has questionable decision skills so she gets a lot of instructions and she knows if I think she has made a decision that would put my son in jeopardy she would never get to have him alone again. I feel bad that in a way my mom fears me, but at the same time it makes her think about things harder when she has him and she will call if she questions anything. I have told her she is lucky I am even giving her a chance to mess up with having him alone but worse case scenario she would just only see him when I took him over there.

ATHENS — Greece faces a tense wait Tuesday for vital bailout money as finance ministers from the 17 European Union countries that use the euro try to reach an agreement on how to put the country's economic recovery back on the right track.
Athens is waiting for a $40 billion loan — part of international rescue packages worth $307 billion. The loan was due to have been signed off last week at a meeting in Brussels of finance ministers and representatives from Greece's international creditors.

The Beau Monde, November 1837.
Oooh! I love that green gown. And that blue cloak is quite a statement piece!
The Beau Monde, December 1837.
OK, so maybe the later 1830s aren't so bad. I can't believe I just said that!
Lady's Magazine, March 1837.
What beautiful tiered sleeves! That is a very charming style and I can only imagine how pretty it would be when someone was dancing.
Lady's Magazine, January 1837.
Yay! More 1830s fashions that I like! I think the close fitting sleeves make the outfit for me. I just can't deal with those huge, ridiculous sleeves that you usually see!
Lady's Magazine, January 1837.
First of all, I want to point out how awesome the artist is for painting the front and back of the gown and doing them in different colors. That's a wonderful way to see both sides, but still get the feeling of two separate gowns. Well done, mysterious artist! Second, I am drooling over the blue fabric. SO GORGEOUS!

TravelPod Member ReviewsTravelodge Calgary University
Hotel was close to C-Train Station to downtown and Stampede Grounds as well as restaurants in the area. Hotel showing it's age. Air Conditioner in room was a quite loud and distracting. TV was not a flat screen - if you can believe it! So, channels were limited! Breakfast was ok! Price was reasonable compared with other hotels in the area. But, if other hotels were available, would probably not stay here.

Historical Traveler Reviews Travelodge Calgary University
Good value, nice rooms, free internet!
Recently stayed here for a week while looking for rental accommodation in Calgary. The rooms are clean, comfortable and big (we had a king size room with sofabed, which was about CAD$100/night incl tax as we booked online). There was a fridge and a microwave in the room, which was very handy. The staff were friendly and helpful, it was easy to get around without a car as the C-Train is so close, there are plenty of restaurants nearby, and best of all there is free wireless internet access. Breakfast was basic but nice - coffee, cereal, rolls, toast, fruit etc. Overall we were very happy with this place, and would have been happy to stay on if we had needed to.
Not bad!
The hotel looks like nothing from the street, and the common areas are a bit tired, but the staff were friendly and efficient, and the room was spacious, clean and appeared to be recently redecorated. As a business traveller, I especially appreciated the free wireless and spacious desk.
I got there late the first night and had bought sushi at Safeway, and had I known about the microwave (there is also a small fridge), it may have been Italian! Anyhow, I could eat and check my email comfortably on the sofa while watching TV!
The next day, a quick free breakfast in the lobby, then it was ten minutes to downtown by car. Had I not had appointments all over the city, I could have taken the c-train, as there is a stop within a five minute walk of the hotel.
I used to stay at the Westin, which was double the $$$ and only marginally better.
I will come back!
Good value
The Holiday Inn Express is typical of the chain. It offers good value accomodation with breakfast included - particularly good value for families. There is a reasonable pool - though it is overlooked by other nearby accomodation. The hotel is less than 5 minutes walk from the C-train station, so it's easy to get into central Calgary. The immediate surroundings are not particularly attractive, but there are several restaurants nearby - we used Phil's which was good value.
!! Gutes Hotel - zu empfehlen !!
Allgemeines zu Hotels in Calgary:
In Calgary findet man locker guenstige Hotels. Downtown befinden sich die besten und teuersten Haeuser, auf die man hier aber gut verzichten kann. Nur wenige Minuten von der Downtown entfernt, befinden sich mehrere Hotelmeilen, die guenstige Mittelklassehotels bieten.
Zu den Details der Hotelkritik:
Die Lage des Hotels + Verkehrsanbindung:
Das Holiday Inn Express Calgary befindet sich auf dem Banff Trail - einer Motelstrasse in der Naehe zur Downtown Calgarys. Nicht ohne Grund heisst diese Gegend Motel Village - sind doch nebenan jede Menge andere Hotels und Motels zu finden. Auf der anderen Strassenseite befindet sich das Gelaende der University of Calgary; direkt hinter dem Hotel das McMahon Stadium (Eroeffnungfeier Olympia 1988 - Heim der Calgary Stampeders (CFL)). In nur 5 Gehminuten Entfernung befindet sich eine Mall mit vielen Geschaeften und mehreren Restaurants. Mein Tipp: Pizza 73 !!!!!!
Die Anreise zum Flughafen Calgarys dauert etwas laenger - erfolgt sie ueber oeffentliche Verkehrsmittel, so braucht man ueber 30 Minuten zum Hotel, da man haeufiger umsteigen muss; die Anreise mit dem Auto dauert etwa 15 Minuten. Zur Downtown benoetigt man etwa 15 Minuten, denn in nur 3 Gehminuten Entfernung liegt die Strassenbahnhaltestelle "Banff Trail". Die Zuege fahren zwischen 5h und 1h im 10-15 Minuten-Takt. Mit dem Auto braucht man genau so lange. Das Hotel ist ideal fuer Reisende mit Mietwagen, denn das Hotel bietet ausreichend eigene - kostenfreie - Parkplaetze vor dem Haus an.
Das Hotel + Ausstattung:
Das Hotel ist mittelgross und hat drei Etagen. Es bietet den Gaesten einen Pool - der ist aber draussen. Ansonsten gibt es keine Extras im Haus .... Was allerdings top ist: Die Gaeste des Hotels haben (wie immer im Holiday Inn Express) ein Fruehstuecksbuffet im Preis inkludiert. Dort gibt es alles: Verschiedene Sorten Brot, verschiedene Brotaufstriche, verschiedene Sorten Tee, Kaffee, O-Saefte und Milch, Cerealien und Obst. Das Fruehstueck ist wirklich gut und vielseitig, hat aber einen Haken: Es wird in der Hotellobby eingenommen (kein eigener Fruehstuecksraum) - dort sitzt man also und isst vor der Rezeption, zudem sind die Plaetze sehr rar, so dass man schon mal warten muss, um sitzen zu koennen.
Die Zimmer:
Die Zimmer sind sehr komfortabel, gross und sehr sauber. Die Raeume sind hell und die Anlage ist innen sehr ruhig. Auf den Zimmern ist alles da: Klimaanlage, Kabel-TV mit allen Sportsendern, Radiowecker (Hotel bietet auch wake-up-calls an), gutes, sauberes, Bad mit Dusche und Badewanne, Board,
Buegeleisen + Brett und genuegend Ablageflaechen. Die Reinigung der Zimmer erfolgt taeglich und gruendlich - alles bestens !!! Die Betten sind uebrigens traumhaft weich und gemuetlich.
Die abschliessende Bewertung:
Das Hotel kommt in einem Motel-Style, bietet aber Hotel-Service zum Motel-Preis. Hier bekommt man also etwas fuer sein Geld und kann zufrieden ausschlafen. Empfehlung !!
August in Calgary
Not the prettiest of hotels but it was fine for an overnight stay. The room was clean and spacious. Reception staff were helpful and the complimentary breakfast was great.
Not picturesque ...but very fuctional
First impressions from the outside were rather disappointing. The hotel is located along with others, as well as fast food outlets, that form a block on the Banff Trail. The room was clean and well furnished ..the breakfast comprised the usual Holiday Inn Express fare.
It was a real bonus to discover that the light railway tram system to downtown was only across the road and down a couple of blocks.
All in all ...a very pleasant stay for three nights.
Good value for money ..highly recommended.
A Very Pleasant Place to Stay
Twice in 2004 while in the city on business, I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express Calgary - University and found it to be a very nice place. Any future business plans in Calgary will most likely involve another stay.
Satisfied Travler
I travel throughout North America on business. This motel is one of the best. All of the conviences & the commuter train across the street. Convenient!
One of the best deal!
Stayed there Labor Day weekend 2003. Built-in shower gel, hair dryer, coffee machine w/ great coffee, ironing board, good TV, 2 sofas w/ 1-bed king-sized bed rooms, coffee table, QUIET A/C, include breakfast, courteous staff, clean and quiet. BTW, there's McDonald's, Red Lobster, & another diner (which serves great food) right in their back parking lot! Greatest deal possible. Very Very Clean. I paid about under US$60 per night included tax & fees with AAA. Will definitely live there again.
Good Value-Quiet, Clean & Well-Maintained
We just spent a very pleasant night at this hotel. We found it to be quiet, clean, and very well maintained. Our room and all of the halls appeared to have been updated within the last few years. For our purposes the location was very central, allowing easy access to the places we needed to go. Parking is free. The continental breakfast (included) was good and the staff member who looked after it was VERY PLEASANT- a positive start to the day. As I have allergies I appreciated the fact that pets are only allowed on the first floor. This appeared to be a very well-run hotel. We felt that it was good value for the money. We will stay there again on our next trip to Calgary.

This Is The End!
... such isolation and climbing the canyon walls is an almost daily occurrence for them. One of the more "interesting" experiences occurred at a rest stop along the trail where a local entrepreneur capitalized on tourists' fascination with local cuisine. For a mere 22 soles, you could pick out your own "cuy" (guinea pig) for dinner that night and let's just say get the full experience! Now I'm an adventurous type I like to think but I discovered my limits at this stop. ...
Nanking Cherries, Chickens and Henry May
Our first day of the trip and I'm so tired I can hardly think straight. But, Oh, the excitement! We're finally on our way.
Robert drove to the pass, where we hit the first road construction of the trip and I drove the rest of the way to Ken and Pat's place in Indus, near Calgary. We had a great visit with them and got to meet Henry, Charlene and Karl's son, for the first time. He's six months old. Such a cutie! Pat made a really nice family dinner on our second evening ...
YA WHOO! Calgary Stampede Rodeo
... 15 p.m. We had fantastic seats and enjoyed it thoroughly.
Here is a sampling of that great day! One thing that was unfortunate about the day was that one of the bull riders was stomped on by that 2 ton beast and was carried away on a stretcher. Word is that after surgery and two metal rods and several pins in his spine, he is able to walk! Can you just imagine the pain that young man was experiencing? Whoa! A strong breed of Cowboy that's for sure.

... of his part in making such an impressive piece of Calgary's downtown puzzle come to life. The unique piece of art in front of the building was done by a Spanish artist who used his daughter as the model. It is entitled Fantasyland. Calgarians simply call it The Head.
We said good-bye to Scott and headed for Steven Avenue for a great steak ...

Zach and I had a chilled out morning as all the Laurent's were at work/school/daycare plus Zach still wasn't feeling well and had been up most of the night. I was scared for how he would go on the flight and was praying for no big gastro 'events' on the plane that I would have to deal with by myself. We had 2 luggage carts of luggage with the car seat, black bag and 4 ...
