HOUSTON (AP)—The Houston Rockets played the best defensive game in their history Saturday night, although nobody was sure exactly how.
"There are two sides to it," Yao Ming said after Houston defeated the Utah Jazz 84-63 Saturday night. "We played very hard and were thoroughly prepared for them. But they had a very bad night offensively."
Steve Francis had 17 points, Yao added 16, Cuttino Mobley had 13 and Kelvin Cato added 11 points, 15 rebounds and four blocked shots.
DeShawn Stevenson's 11 points led the Jazz, who scored just seven points in the fourth quarter and had their lowest point total of the season.
The previous low for a Rockets opponent was 66 by both the 76ers and Bulls earlier this season.
"I don't know how we do it, because nobody talks to each other out there," Francis said. "It's just that everyone seems to know where to go."
After a tight first quarter, Utah scored only one field goal the first 7:03 of the second quarter. Houston took a 33-20 lead with 5:34 left in the half after a 12-0 run.
Taylor had 12 points at the half, including eight in the second quarter, as Houston led 42-33.
Francis had 10 points in the third quarter as Houston took a 66-56 lead into the final period. A 16-2 run by the Rockets gave them their biggest lead of the night, 84-61 with 1:22 remaining.
"At times, we play very good defense," Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy said. "We had some sequences that were very good tonight. There were a few 24-second violations (two on Utah) and that indicates you are sustaining your concentration and intensity."
Utah shot only 3-of-20 in the fourth quarter, and its seven points were only two points better than club's low for a quarter set Dec. 1, 1981 against the Lakers.
"We didn't put up much resistance," coach Jerry Sloan said. "They just dominated the whole game. They kept us where they wanted us pretty much the whole night.
"Their bigs guys just made it very difficult for us to get anything inside. They blocked some shots in between."
Andrei Kirilenko scored 10 points and had no excuses.
"They played good defensively and we were playing not so good offensively," he said. "I think we lost the game because we lost on rebounds, especially on defensive ones. Kelvin Cato, (Maurice) Taylor and Yao Ming justcrashed our boards, and the NBA team that wins the rebounds, wins the game."
Clarence Weatherspoon, acquired by Houston from New York last Tuesday, was in uniform but did not play … Utah's Matt Harpring did not dress because of a sprained right knee. … Neither team has scored 100 points in the Rockets' last eight home games … Jerry Sloan is two wins short of his 800th regular-season win. He's nine short of 900 all-time coaching wins … Sloan got a technical in the third quarter for slapping the scorer's table after a call he didn't like … After losing to Memphis on Friday, the Jazz are 1-5 in firstgames of back-to-backs and 2-4 in second games.

These were prisoners abandoned by guards as the flood waters rose. Some had to break out of their own cells, with the water chest-high; others descended to the lower levels of the jail to rescue other prisoners. And lest Bill Bennett and his ilk think this was just a matter of hard-core criminal scum getting no better than they deserved, Rich digs out this telling quote: "Some of these prisoners were in fact serving misdemeanor sentences, and others were picked up for parole violations, but the vast, vast majority of the prisoners being held at Orleans Parish Prison were pretrial detainees. They had only been charged. They had not been tried and convicted."
Of course, it wouldn't make any difference if they were all hard-core convicts; the inhumanity of abandoning them to the flood would be just as egregious. But we'll certainly keep tracking this story as it develops.

Hacienda San Juan de La Vega a B&B experience
From $250 / night
Description from the owner
Description from the owner
Bedrooms: 3/
Bathrooms: 4/
Sleeps: 6/
Type: Villa
Hacienda San Juan de La Vega has been in my husband David´s family for about 20 years... We love our ranch dearly and in the last year or so we have really put a lot of love and joy into renovating our property. We currently have 2 of the 4 homes completely renovated. The first home (Casa Monica) that we renovated has been listed since January 2012 and our 2nd home (Casa Ana) which we finished renovating May 2012 is now also listed.
We've loved our rental experience, having many lovely families & couples visit for long month stays or just a quick long weekend / week visits.
Life in Ecuador:
I've loved living in Ecuador for the last 7 1/2 years... When I lived in Northern VA, I was a pre-school teacher / Director of a wonderful little preschool that I opened with my mother. Clifton Children's Academy ( (website: hidden) ). I grew up in McLean VA most of my life... however, now I find myself completely in love, living in Quito, Ecuador. I love Ecuador and definitely recommend a visit! We are trying to create a new kind of Vacation Experience on or ranch... Very different from staying in a hotel room... you can enjoy the entire villa just for you and your family. Our staff is very attentive to all of your needs so you will feel quite pampered... and most importantly you will feel like you are on vacation... We hope you enjoy it!
We are near Otavalo in a small community called San Pablo del Lago. The town Square is about 10min away by cab with a $4.00 to $5.00 fee. If you choose to go by foot its a beautiful 45min walk. Our Hacienda San Juan de La Vega was a passion and a dream for David's father... He loved the land and always wanted to create a sustainable life style on the ranch... We have tried to follow his dream as we continually implement new projects that are permaculture related. We are constantly learning and find that life on the ranch is extraordinary enriching for us as a couple as well as for our visitors...
For us, it is important that you and your family share valuable life lasting memories... In a way it is like going back to a more simple life style... Getting back to the basics... Visiting grandmas farm... making homemade biscuits, homemade cheese and more... You create the memories we provide the possibilities... EnjoyTripAdvisor property ID 3219498 ...Read more

"So much fun!"
We visited San Juan de la Vega with our 4 children and another family of friends. I can´t say enough wonderful things about staying at this beautiful hacienda. Fun activities for everyone all day long! We were surrounded by nature, a peaceful environment, and assisted by the kindest people with every detail to make our stay unforgettable. Our children had the opportunity to experience life at the countryside at its fullest. Horse back riding, fetching fresh eggs, harvesting organic vegetables and even cow milking! Adults enjoyed sitting by the fireplace, cooking in the beautifully equipped kitchen and taking long, tranquil walks.
Being only a two hour drive from the city of Quito, it makes a great destination to come back any time, even on any regular weekend.
Janine and David are great hosts, always willing to help and come by for a nice chat. They have really thought of every detail, from fluffy pillows to fun games for the children to play.
Hopefully, we will come back again soon! We are telling all our friends about this accessible yet magnificent experience for great family fun!

"Awesome family vacation!"
Ecuador is a great family destination and our stay at San Juan de la Vega was fantastic! We were two families (4 adults 5 kids) and had ample space in the house. We made great use of the well stocked kitchen, and made awesome meals with the fresh vegetables from the garden and Otavalo Market! The grounds were an amazing place for the kids and the adults, we had a lot of fun walking in the stream up to the waterfalls. The kids enjoyed their first horseback rides and discovered the beauty of a fresh garden. Janine was a pleasure to deal with when planning our trip and meeting her and her husband was extremely pleasant. Their staff is first rate. Veronica and Darwin made sure we lacked for nothing by keeping the house and grounds impeccably clean, arranging horseback rides, hike on Imbabura (we saw condors!) and even babysitting. Be sure to enjoy a meal cooked by Veronica, she is an excellent cook. Janine set us up with a driver for the week (Wilmer) who was friendly and reliable. As an added bonus, he is a natural guide and would even help keep an eye on our kids at the market. Ask him to take you to eat cuy! The only warning I could mention is to not expect too much comprehension of English. That being said, none of us spoke spanish, but we still got by very well with the basic spanish we learned in preparation for this vacation due the kind and patient nature of the ecuadorian people. Lastly, we were impressed to by the speed of the Wifi, it was as fast our Wifi in Montreal (very useful for google translate!) We have rented many great vacation homes, but San Juan de la Vega really stands in a class of its own because it is a destination in itself!

"Spectacular location, the house is luxurious and immaculate - ev"
You drive down a rutted road, past the high walls of a few famous old world haciendas, you glimpse a lush, green valley and, yes, that's where you are staying. It's a gorgeous valley surrounded by mountains one of which is a volcano and the view down the valley is a lovely lake. Picturesque.
The house is marvelous. Big dining room, generous kitchen with a fully stocked pantry that you could live from for weeks. But don't because there is marvelous food that you can shop for in town and the garden produces many delicious meals. Upstairs and downstairs fireplaces give you cozy warmth and each morning and evening the fireplaces are lit for you. The beds are beyond luxurious with wonderful down quilts to keep the high altitude chill away. Rubber boots in every size are provided for tramping around the farm. You can visit the garden, ride the horses, milk the cows, hike or run the nearby trails. Veronica is a marvelous cook. She and her husband Darwin run one of the two farms located at the San Juan de la Vega. Darwin took us riding. We had family soccer games with our neighbor guests. Janine answered our every question. We practiced our Spanish with a very patient Veronica. We would have been happy to stay for weeks and weeks. So much to do right there and lots to do nearby. It seemed more like a resort than a house rental. Janine and David are caring and thoughtful hosts. We can't wait to return.

"Heaven in Earth !!"
My husband and I were traveling in Ecuador and were
so happy to have the pleasure of staying at the beautiful
Hacienda San Juan dela Vega ~ The most beautiful property nestled up under luscious mountains ~ There is horsebackriding up to the mountains for the gorgeous view of San Pablo Lago ( lake) or just walking around the vast acreage looking at all the flowers ~ All of the Haciendas on the property are absolutely fabulous ~ The owners Janine and David have truly outdone themselves with providing their guest all the 5 star comforts you can imagine ~ There are several caretakers on property willing to cook meals for you in you like ~ There is plenty of room for large families or even for family reunions, ladies retreats, or corporate retreats ~ You are only 5 minutes away from beautiful San Pablo Lago (lake) but believe me you will not want to leave once you arrive at this Heavenly Place ~ We cannot wait to return ~

"Peaceful Retreat"
First, the owners could not be more charming, understanding, and accommodating. The wife is american and he is Ecuadorian, so they understand what each culture of traveler needs in a hacienda stay. Second, what they offer is hard, if not impossible, to find in Ecuador. They occupy 100 coveted acres of meadow land, tucked away back in the foothills of the andes mountains, in a valley surrounded by pine/eucalyptus forests, and it even has a running stream through the property. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, they maintain 7 horses for guests to use, chickens for fresh eggs, turkeys, ducks, geese, a couple of friendly dogs, who are eager to go exploring with you, an organic garden, where you can get many of the fixings for your meals, and endless trails to discover the countryside.
Not to be outdone, the home renovations are meticulously done. They have spared little expense from the lovely sheets, pillows, and down duvet bed coverings to the handpainted walls in each room, not to mention stylish furnishings and furniture. When we arrived, there were fresh flower arrangements in every single room and hallway. Roses, hydrangeas, calalillies, and many I could not name. Some are from a nearby rose plantation and the rest came from their beds around the house. The kitchen comes fully equipped and they even stock the pantry and let you use their supplies until you can get to the store for your own stuff. You pay on the honor system for what you use, which also tells you what kind of owners you are dealing with. Some nights we cooked and others we chose to have their on-site staff surprise us with some more typical Ecuadorian dishes, but they could cook many other international dishes as well (we had Peruvian chicken one night and it was excellent). This is a must on any travelers list, if you want to see the unspoiled beauty of Ecuador. Plus, the multiple houses make it perfect for family retreats, getaways with friends, or even business functions.

"Beyond amazing!!!'"
What a surprise! The pictures here are beautiful - but do even begin to display the majesty of this piece of paradise. The owners were most gracious and the caretakers are wonderful.
We enjoyed a horse back ride with Darwin, had Veronica cook with us, walked the grounds, relaxed in the cool mountain air, and took great photos of all of the vegetation. I love the "honestry" pantry where we could "shop" for the things we forgot to pick up at the store.

New York, NY (PRWEB) April 01, 2013
On April 1, 2013, Voices Against Brain Cancer applauds the actions of 6th-grader Andrew Bauer, who helped raise awareness of brain cancer in Long Valley Middle School. Bauer encouraged classmates and teachers to wear gray in support of fighting the disease, and raised funds in order to help find a cure.
Bauer, along with some of his classmates and teachers, drew attention to brain cancer by wearing gray en masse. Those who donated money to VABC's fund received bracelets. The project was part of the class-wide "Change the World Project," created by Bauer's 6th grade history teacher, Mr. Mathew Marciano.
Bauer says he wants to change the world by helping to fight brain cancer, and explained that one of the reasons he was encouraged to raise awareness of brain cancer was because of MLBPA leader Michael Weiner, whose well-documented struggles with his own inoperable brain tumor have been an inspiration to many. "Mr. Weiner used to be my Hebrew school teacher, and he inspired me to support this cause. He is a hero to me, so brave and strong." Andrew is part of the fundraising team Friends of Mike, and was able to raise $150 for his cause, which will not only go to helping fight brain cancer, but will also be dedicated to the Friends of Mike team.
With his school awareness-raising campaign a success, Andrew Bauer is already planning bigger things. He hopes to sponsor a bake sale at his temple, where his hero Mike Weiner was his 4th and 5th grade teacher, and hopes to raise even more money.
Michael Klipper, Chairman of VABC applauds Andrew for all the hard work he's done raising awareness. "Andrew is an inspiration to us all. He's helping kids his age, and even his teachers, realize that brain cancer is a real problem, and won't go away without the help and support of com

About Clinics
Clinics is a pretty general term and it comes in all shapes and sizes. There are general clinics that offer a number of basic medical services such as checkups, x-rays, running tests, etc. Then there are also more specific clinics such those that pertain to fertility, weight loss, alternative medicine, and the like. Choosing the right one will depend on your needs, preferences, and budget. If you just have a simple medical problem, like a cold and need a prescription, then heading to a general clinic would probably do the trick. However, if you have more specific concerns such as not being able to conceive then a special fertility clinic would be a better option.

More on Clinics
Clinics are medical facilities that are smaller than hospitals, and are usually equipped to handle an array of basic medical issues and procedures. They aren't meant for in-patient stays and they're certainly not equipped to take care of surgeries and other major procedures. Some of the things usually done in clinics include checkups, tests (urine samples, blood tests, etc) and others. The doctors in clinics can prescribe medication as well so if you're having any pains or if you have common ailments like colds, runny nose, etc, you can head to clinic nearest to your location and have a physician check you out. You don't always need to have an appointment in clinics. Urgent care clinics for instance, open their doors even if you don't have an appointment. When it comes to costs and out of pocket expenses, the amounts will vary depending on the clinic as well as on the procedures, tests, or consults that needed to be done. To be safe, it's best to have insurance to ensure that you're covered in case a huge expense suddenly falls on your lap. Depending on your insurance policy, you may have a specific co-pay or you may need to pay a certain percentage of the entire bill. Call your insurance to be sure.

This One Time I Went Psycho
by Slacker And Steve
posted Nov 29 2012 3:33PM
It's simple…every story has to start with this phrase: "This one time I went psycho…"
What have you done that would be considered psycho behavior?
Slacker did an experiment with a cat to see how high up they could be dropped from and still land on their feet.
This one time when I went psycho... I was in high school and going through a phase where I wanted to get rid of most of my friends. So I stopped talking to a bunch of them abd went out and shaved my head as a metaphor. Like I didn't need all this hair on my head and I didn't need all these fake friends. Crazy...

U.S. smashes women's 4x100 mark
Updated: August 10, 2012, 9:42 PM ETAssociated Press
LONDON -- Eyeing the trackside clock as she approached the finish line, Carmelita Jeter pointed the black baton in her left hand at those bright orange numbers.
She wanted to make sure everyone saw what she saw: The United States was breaking the world record in the women's 4x100-meter relay -- and it wasn't even close.
Allyson Felix, Tianna Madison and Bianca Knight built a big lead, and Jeter brought it home Friday night, anchoring the U.S. to its first Olympic gold medal ...

It's Official: Netflix Orders 12 New Episodes of 'Black Mirror'
Posted on Friday, September 25th, 2015 by Angie Han
Prepare for more terrifying visions of the future. Netflix has officially announced it's picking up the buzzy sci-fi anthology series Black Mirror for a third season, to consist of 12 episodes. Keep in mind that this show has only put out six episodes (across two seasons) and a Christmas special to date. Netflix is nearly tripling the episode count in one fell swoop. Get details on the Black Mirror Netflix pickup after the jump. Read More »

sorry if this question might seem simple but I couldn't figure it out.
Imagine two arbitrary Rectangles that are randomly overlaped so that their outlines intersect at only two locations. Now you cut the area of overlap out of Rectangle 1.
This "bitten Rectangle 1" has now the following points (vertices): (1) All points of Rectangle 1 that lie outside of Rectangle 2, (2) All points of Rectangle 2 that lie inside Rectangle 1 and (3) the two intersection points.
The problem know is the following: How can I get the order of the new points so that the functions plot(...) or fill(...) would draw the right "Bitten Rectangle 1"?
What I did so far: I determined the convex hull of all the points that lie outside of Rectangle 2 + the intersection points. Then one has to add the new points that lie inside rectangle 1 (due to overlap with Rectangle 2) between the indices of the first and second intersection point also in the right order.
The problem with this convex hull approach is that it only works if the intersection points lie on different lines of Rectangle 1, because then they are part of the convex hull. If they lie on the same line they are no longer treated as part of the convex hull.
What I'd need is a method to get the order of all possible points that lie on the convex hull and not only the outer most ones.
Hope anybody can help me... Thank you in advance, Patrick

iHerb Customer Reviews
We can't get teff in Australia, so I save this for special dishes (like injera!) or only use it in small amounts. I like that it is both gluten free and wholegrain, and mixed with other flours it makes a great multi-grain bread.
This gluten free flour is full of healthy nutrients. It makes great chocolate cake, cookies and other baked goods that contain nuts. Soak flour prior to using it to cook with and it will take any crunchiness out of the grain that it may have; I soaked mine for a short time and didn't notice any crunchiness.


text: Unique Scandinavian design always makes a memorable gift, especially when it's whimsically illustrated in Maileg's adorable toys (for babies and big kids alike... many of us adults even have them at our desks in the Gilt offices). Established in 1999 by Dorthe and Erik Mailil, the award-winning Danish brand creates charming collections of dolls, accessories, and coordinating play scenes, often inspired by holiday seasons, from Christmas to Easter. Our mix features a bunch of the signature characters: Think happy rabbit families, regally dressed mice, pirates and mermaids, and a particularly stylish crew of lions, clowns, and elephants, each lovingly made by hand.

Eating disorders are not about the desire to be thin. Eating disorders are severe psychological illnesses that usually take years to overcome and can be accompanied by devastating and sometimes deadly physical side effects. In this powerful program, four young women and men from a variety of ethnic backgrounds share their stories of the physical pain and emotional torment caused by eating disorders. Medical, psychological, and nutritional experts explain the types of eating disorders, their causes, and who is most at risk, as well as treatment options.

Late Nights at the Whitney
The Museum is open until 10 pm on Fridays and Saturdays.View all Hours
As a young child growing up in Trinidad, I never dreamed of following art. My days consisted of rambunctious play and mischief. But as in all things, there are always unexpected events. My mother, sister and I moved to America where we live today. During my years of middle school, I began to draw comics–specifically anime. As shallow as it seems, my love for art started there.
I would draw for hours, completing over 300 pieces! As I began High School, my home life began taking its toll, and finally in my sophomore year I was admitted and diagnosed with an illness. There I realized how art can heal a sore soul. I began drawing, painting, and making like never before. I can safely say, that had I not had art, I would not be who I am today.

Mehdi Hasan exposes misconceptions about the continent
Explore Japan through its offbeat train culture
26 Sep 2013 10:26 GMT | Health, US & Canada, United States
Every year in the US over 11,000 babies die on the day they are born. Most of them are just born too early, with their vital organs, heart and lungs, still unformed. And even those who survive beyond 24 hours often die before their first birthday.
We are not anywhere close to being that vigilant about trying to practice preventative medicine, about trying to keep families out of crisis.
Arthur James MD, Ohio Better Birth Outcomes
But if a baby is African-American, it is more than twice as likely to die before the first birthday.
"Just under 40 percent of the babies that are born are African-American, but they contribute to 70 percent of the babies who die in the first year of their life. So you have this huge, huge disparity and that's kind of business as usual, it's been going on for decades," says Dr Arthur James, the co-director of Ohio Better Birth Outcomes.
Fault Lines travels to Cleveland, Ohio, America's 'infant mortality capital' - where the rates of premature birth and infant death in many neighbourhoods exceed those of developing nations. So what is causing these deaths? And what is being done to stop it?
"Every public official will hold up a baby, will talk about how children are our greatest assets, but it seems to some commmunities and the communities that I represent that some babies matter more than others," says Senator Charleta Tavares, who has been working for years to redress racial health disparities in Ohio.
Sebastian Walker goes inside the neo-natal intensive care unit at Cleveland's public hospital as doctors rush to save the lives of the city's premature infants.
Fault Lines speaks to mothers experiencing loss and those whose babies are at risk to find out why the US, a country that spends so much on healthcare and is believed to have one of the best neo-natal intensive care units in the world, is failing to ensure the health of its newest citizens.
Fault Lines can be seen on Al Jazeera English each week at the following times GMT: Wednesday: 2230; Thursday: 0930; Friday: 0330; Saturday: 1630.

New doping investigation in British horse racing - 0 Comments
LONDON — Less than a week after the Godolphin steroids scandal, British horse racing is conducting another major doping investigation after trainer Gerard Butler admitted giving horses a product that contained anabolic steroids.
The British Horseracing Authority confirmed Monday that a "number of positive samples" were obtained from horses at Butler's stable following a confession by the trainer.
The case emerged after Godolphin trainer Mahmood Al Zarooni was banned for eight years this week after he admitted to administering anabolic steroids to 15 horses in his care.

'The Master' Review: Scientology or Not, Emotionally It's Just Running on Cruise Control
This film image released by The Weinstein Company shows Amy Adams, left, and Philip Seymour Hoffman, center, in a scene from "The Master." The film will be presented at the 37th Toronto International Film festival running through Sept. 16. (AP Photo/The Weinstein Company)
It's ambitiously hitting (selected) screens in 70 millimeter and dealing with huge topics like war and religion, but for all its exquisite craftsmanship, Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master" lacks the narrative sweep that made "There Will Be Blood" such a work of genius.
This latest one definitely merits a look, but two viewings later, I still find myself both impressed and strangely disengaged.
While most of the advance buzz has centered around how much the film's title character does or doesn't resemble Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, "The Master" winds up being more interested in exploring the surrogate father-son dynamic that Anderson previously plumbed in both "Blood" and "Boogie Nights."
This time, however, the son is so damaged and the father so unable to provide assistance that the story never quite gels -- it's like an experiment with two variables.
Freddy (Joaquin Phoenix) is a sailor in World War II with a taste for alcohol: not so much the kind they serve in bars as the stuff that's used in machinery. He spends some time after the war in a psych ward with other PTSD victims, although it's clear that his problems began way before the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
Fired from his job as a department-store photographer (while hung over, he picks a fight with a customer) and then fleeing from a menial gig on a farm in Salinas (a fellow cabbage-picker is poisoned by Freddy's powerful hooch), Freddy has pretty much hit bottom when he stows away on a party boat in San Francisco.
Running things aboard ship is the charismatic Lancaster Dodd (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a self-described doctor, philosopher and nuclear physicist who also leads a self-actualization sect known as The Cause. Seeing what terrible shape Freddy is in (not to mention enamored of the potent stuff in Freddy's flask), Dodd takes him on, with Freddy quickly becoming part of the doctor's inner circle.
On the Anderson spectrum, Dodd is somewhere between the shameless con artist played by Daniel Day-Lewis in "Blood" and Burt Reynolds' deluded true believer in "Boogie Nights"; this huckster clearly believes in the metaphysical hokum he's dispensing, but ask too many skeptical questions and his buried rage emerges.
The movie suggests that Dodd and Freddy, as a buddy team, could get along just fine, but with Dodd's star rising (guided by his driven wife, played memorably by Amy Adams) and Freddy's never-ceasing love of super-strong spirits, this platonic love story may not work out after all.
Ultimately, however, both characters are so very extreme that you find yourself wishing for a movie about one or the other. Dodd is ultimately a secondary character here — imagine "My Week with L. Ron" — and while Freddy's story is a compelling one, the movie is pulled in too many directions by these two unbalanced protagonists.
Still, for all its flaws, "The Master" deserves to be seen, particularly on the big screen. Studio moguls have leaned toward 3D as a way to get people to go to the movies rather than wait for video, but Anderson's use of 70mm (aided greatly by cinematographer Mihai Malaimare, Jr.) reminds us of the impact that the big screen can have.
From the chiaroscuro shadows to the glow of late afternoon to a sun-baked desert plain to the intense close-ups of Phoenix's and Hoffman's physiognomies, this movie often feels like an elegy to film itself, which is so rapidly being replaced by digital technology.

Tipping at Salons and Spas
Is a 20% Tip Too Low? Some Say Yes
Like us on Facebook
Lately, it seems like tip percentages just keep growing. Most people I know give 20 percent as the default gratuity, but that can vary. For previous generations, rates were lower; among our grandparents, 12 percent was a more common tip, and in many places, 15 percent is still the standard.
Yet while expectations may be higher, the poor economy has some patrons tipping less than they used to. That has led some people at salons and spas to guilt-trip and even intimidate clients for higher tips. And while I get why they'd want miserly clients to give generously, I'm thinking that tactic is unlikely to earn repeat business. I'm looking forward to the day when everyone can agree on what constitutes a fair tip — but I'm not holding my breath.

This includes automatic route setting and dynamic rescheduling following disturbance. Railways operating near their theoretical capacity, which is routinely true of metros and increasingly so of substantial parts of the UK mainline network, are particularly vulnerable to disruption by human behaviour or engineering failures that lead to delays to or even cancellation of services. These problems may, and, in the UK, undoubtedly should, be addressed by increasing network capacity and improving operating reliability. However, these are long-term goals, and require enormous investment. In the short term (and generally), it is clearly advantageous to respond to disruptive incidents in such a away as to minimise the resulting problems. Current projects: Testing of audio frequency track circuits. PhD student: Collaborative rescheduling for a railway network. PhD student: Train regulation at complex junctions for optimum traction energy consumption.

Just about a year ago today, Penguin and Random House merged to create the world's largest book publisher. And HarperCollins announced in May that it's acquiring Harlequin.
