The Girl in the Parkby Mariah Fredericks
In my dream, everyone talks except me. It's a party, and I'm surrounded by voices. I listen. I smile. I nod. No one is actually speaking to me. But still--I want to pretend I'm a part of it.
Faces spin by in a blur. More people now, and still more. They laugh, tease, point fingers. Their talk becomes a meteor shower of sound, the words coming too fast and hard to understand.
And maybe because I am silent, I'm the one who sees her. Wendy. She's standing in a wide-open window. The city stretches vast and dark behind her. Her toes are poised on the sill, her fingertips just reach the edges. There is nothing to hold her as she stares into the crowded room.
All of a sudden, she wobbles. Her fingers lose their hold. Now it's all balance. Her arms flail, a foot rises. I am too far away, I can't reach her in time.
Stop! I yell. But it comes out an ugly blurted Op! People glance over, embarrassed, go back to their talk.
She's falling! This is She alling! Someone giggles. Another girl tries to hide her smile.
Desperate, I scream, Someone help her! Thomeone elper!
Now the laughter starts. As everyone swings toward me, pointing and snickering, Wendy falls, but no one sees. I howl, No, no! as I feel my heart fall with her.
And someone's knocking at the door.
I open my eyes, see my mom standing by my bed. Still dazed from the dream, I take in my purple quilt covered in stars, Sullivan the blue whale perched at the foot of my bed, the postcard mosaic on the opposite wall. Faces, because I like faces. Greta Garbo. Edith Piaf. Lucy from Peanuts.
I struggle up, croak, "Hey, Mom."
"Rain, honey, I'm sorry to wake you."
I look at the clock. 7:16. We're visiting my grandmother today, but even so, this is way, way early for Sunday morning. Particularly when I've been to a party the night before. Which my mother knows. So what gives?
Blinking, I say, "It's fine. What's up?"
"Ms. Geller's on the phone. She's looking for Wendy."
My mom looks at me. What is this?
I look back. I have no idea.
As we walk down the hall, my mom asks, "Was Wendy at the party last night?"
Wendy doesn't miss parties. "Yeah, she was there."
"I didn't know she was still a close friend."
I make a face like, I didn't either.
Now we're at the kitchen. I pick up the phone. "Hi, Ms. Geller."
"Rain? I'm so sorry to call this early." She's talking fast, a little too loud. Scared, I think, but trying not to be.
"No problem at all. What can I do?"
"Well . . ." Big sigh, ends on a shaky laugh. Everything's okay! "Wendy did not come home last night."
Faces start flashing in my head. Snatches of conversation. Wendy surrounded by people, laughing--she's always laughing.
I hear Ms. Geller say, "And, uh, I'm just hoping there's a very rational explanation." Again, the weird shaky laugh.
"Oh, absolutely," I say.
"You were at Karina Burroughs's party last night, right?"
"Yes. Wendy was there. I definitely saw her."
"Was she . . . How do I ask this? Was she okay?"
Wendy using two hands to lift a gallon of vodka, sloshing it over a line of plastic cups. Party time!
"Um, it was a party. But when I saw her, she was fine."
"When did you last see her? Can you remember?"
"I left early," I apologize. "Before midnight. So probably I saw her at . . ."
Hey, Nico . . .
"Eleven? Eleven-thirty?" I say.
"And she was okay?"
I make agony eyes at my mom, and she squeezes my hand.
"She had had some alcohol," I say carefully. "But she wasn't over the edge or anything."
"Anyone she was with? A boy?"
Come be with me, Nico.
I hate this. I don't want to tell this woman things she doesn't want to know. "She has lots of friends, Ms. Geller. Everybody likes Wendy."
Even as I say this, I wonder why I'm saying it. Because it's not true.
I finish lamely, "I'm sure she's fine."
"But there's no one you can remember she might have stayed with?"
"Did you try Karina? Or Jenny Zalgat?"
"Oh, yes." Ms. Geller's voice turns chilly. "They couldn't be bothered to come to the phone."
Hung over, I think. Or protecting Wendy. No--protecting themselves.
I hesitate. There is one other name I could give Ms. Geller.
I blurt out, "Nico Phelps. You could call him."
"Nico Phelps." A pause. She's writing it down. "You don't have his number?"
"No, I'm sorry."
"Okay." Deep breath. "Okay. Thank you. This is--"
"You truly don't need to thank me, Ms. Geller. I bet Wendy calls the second you hang up."
"Probably." She almost laughs this time, then says, "Actually, that's another thing."
"I've tried calling her cell phone. There's no answer."
Wendy checking her cell, chucking it back in her bag. Somebody's playing mommy again. As if she gives a crap.
"Sounds like she's feeling a little defiant," I joke.
"I hope," says Ms. Geller. "I mean, that that's . . ."
She stops herself. "Anyway, sweetie, thank you. When this is over, I want you to come to dinner. We'd love to see you. It's been so long."
"Yeah, same. And--"
"Let me know. When it all works out."
"I will." And she hangs up.

I use Olay cleansing cloths.

Slideshow: 14 Summer Salads
Grilled Romaine Hearts with Buttermilk-Dill Dressing
Grilled hearts of romaine lettuce go wonderfully with a rich, tangy buttermilk dressing shot through with fragrant dill, topped with sweet tomatoes and crisp rounds of spicy radishes.
Asian Cucumber, Celery, and Avocado Salad
Cucumbers and celery, intensely flavored with garlic, ginger, and lime juice, are served on top of sliced avocado.
Make-Ahead Radish Fattoush Salad
The salad is topped with pita chips sprinkled with harissa for an extra layer of flavor.
Steak Salad with Cucumber, Peppers, and Spicy Fish Sauce Vinaigrette
The flavors of the dressing—fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, garlic, and chilies—are straight out of the playbook of Southeast Asian cuisine.
Southern-Style Slaw with Pecans and Maple-Dijon Vinaigrette
Sweet and tangy with lots of crunch, this slaw is light and refreshing.
Spicy Cabbage Slaw
This spicy cabbage slaw, flavored with habanero chili and a hint of allspice is essentially a quick-pickle recipe that comes together in minutes, but goes a long way to adding crunch, freshness, and heat to tacos or other summery dishes.
Salad of Summer Leaves, Cured Pork, and Cherries
Sweet summer cherries, meaty, salty cured pork, and tender lettuce greens are married here in a summery salad bound together by a rich, creamy vinaigrette.
Grilled Chicken Niçoise
Although it's traditionally topped with anchovies and tuna, this version of the classic Niçoise gets a slight spin. Anchovies are instead incorporated into the tarragon-laced dressing—a boon for haters since they're hidden—while marinated, grilled chicken lends catch-all appeal.
Grilled Jalapeño Potato Salad
This grilled approach to potato salad ditches the bland mayo monotony for a group of fresh and powerful flavors.
Pork Larb (Thai Salad with Pork, Herbs, Chili, and Toasted Rice Powder)
Pork larb is intensely flavored, and the embodiment of the sweet-sour-salty-hot flavor profile that defines much of Thai cuisine.
Grilled Cheese Curd Panzanella
If any one dish symbolizes the glory and versatility of summer tomatoes, we'd place our vote with panzanella. This one is taken up a notch with the addition of fresh cheese curd.

Who could have seen that coming? After showing weakness all night (on still-fading oil prices despite Libyan issues and GREXIT concerns), the moment the US equity cash market opened for business, USDJPY was smacked higher and thus stocks went vertical with the S&P 500 pushing back near record highs. The Russell 2000 was the leader as "most shorted" stocks were monkey-hammered yet again...

Every year, David Collum writes a detailed "Year in Review" synopsis full of keen perspective and plenty of wit. This year's is no exception. "I have not seen a year in which so many risks - some truly existential - piled up so quickly. Each risk has its own, often unknown, probability of morphing into a destructive force. It feels like we're in the final throes of a geopolitical Game of Tetris as financial and political authorities race to place the pieces correctly. But the acceleration is palpable. The proximate trigger for pain and ultimately a collapse can be small, as anyone who's ever stepped barefoot on a Lego knows..."

Small Caps Plunge Negative Year-To-Date (Again) As 10Y Slides Below 2.20%Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/09/2014 11:43 -0400
10Y yields are back below 2.20% and 30Y below 2.85% - awkwardly close to the Bullard lows - and stocks appear to be waking up to the massive squeeze-driven decoupling in the last 6 weeks (as USDJPY tests below 118.00). Small Cap Russell 2000 has plunged back into the red year-to-date, and the rest of the equity complex is not "off the lows". Remember, it's all about the fun-durr-mentals.

Hedge Funds Most Long The S&P500, Most Short The 10 Year In Six Months, Still Long CrudeSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 12/08/2014 11:37 -0400
We doubt anyone will find it one bit surprising that as Bank of America observes in its latest weekly hedge fund monitor, "S&P500 longs increase to six month high" with all equities bought. And alongside that, and confirming that the short squeeze in the Treasury market will continue indefinitely, "10-yr contracts were sold at a strong pace to increase net short positioning to largest in six months." Why? Because that imminent economic recovery which everyone has been betting on since the second half of 2013 is just not coming, seasonally adjusted low-paying temp, retail, teacher and secretary jobs notwithstanding.

B-Dud Explains The Fed's Economic Coup (Or Why Every Asset Price Influencing Monetary Policy Transmission Is Now Manipulated)Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/03/2014 20:30 -0400
The Fed can do only do two concrete things to influence these income and credit sources of spending - both of which are unsustainable, dangerous and an assault on free market capitalism's capacity to generate growth and wealth. It can induce households to consume a higher fraction of current income by radically suppressing interest rates on liquid savings. And it can inject reserves into the financial system to induce higher levels of credit creation. But the passage of time soon catches up with both of these parlor tricks.

3 Things Worth Thinking AboutSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/26/2014 14:48 -0400
"The time to liquidate a given position is now seven times as long as in 2008, reflecting much smaller trade sizes in fixed income markets. In part the current liquidity illusion is a product of the risk asymmetries implied by the zero lower bound on interest rates, excess reserves in the system, and perceived central bank reaction functions. However, interest rates in advanced economies won't remain this low forever. Once the process of normalization begins, or perhaps if market perceptions shift, and it is expected to begin, a re-pricing can be expected. The orderliness of that transition is an open question."

Texas Tea & Treasury Yields Tumble As Trannies Top The DaySubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/25/2014 17:04 -0400
Never in the history of US equity markets has the S&P 500 closed above its 5-day moving average for 28 days in a row... until today. While most indices tracked sideways in a very narrow range today, Trannies outperformed (helped by weaker oil, but even when oil rallied intraday Trannies rallied too). VIX tracked back below 12.5 with an inverted term structure for the 5th day in a row. The USD lost ground for the 2nd day in a row, driven by EUR strength (with notable AUD weakness extending). Silver rallied as gold flatlined and copper tumbled after US GDP beat. However, the two big themes today were the collapse in oil prices (as rumors/news ahead of OPEC sent volatility soaring) to a $73 handle - the lowest close since 2010; and the plunge in Treasury yields (with a very stroing 5Y auction and big block trade in TLT suggesting short-covering). Finally, AAPL broke above a $700 billion market cap briefly today but was unable to hold it.

US Stocks Surge To 'Best' Streak In 86 yearsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/24/2014 17:03 -0400
The last few weeks have been the strongest and most consistent rallies in US equity market history. US equity markets have traded above their 5-day moving average for 27 days - the longest such streak since March 1928 (h/t MKM's John Krinsky) and all amid GDP downgrades, missed PMIs, and downward earnings outlook revisions. Given the holiday week, it is hardly surprising volume was weak today. Stocks were very mixed today with Russell 2000 and Nasdaq leading the way (along with Trannies) as Dow and S&P showed very small gains - to record highs though. Bonds were also bid with a strong 2Y auction extending the drops in yields (0-2bps) led by 7Y. The USDollar fell 0.4% - led by EUR strength - as JPY, CAD, and AUD all weakened. Despite USD weakness, oil (big drop intraday), copper, and gold also dropped on the day with silver ending +0.25%. VIX dropped to 12.66 - its lowest close in over 2 months.

Adam Williamscommented on a video on YouTube.
The GLA felt somewhat unhurried with it's lack of 'Agility' settings and the raised ride height also meant it felt much less composed around the corners. The steering also seemed to feel less precise than the SLK 250 CDI AMG that I'm used to driving, with what felt like inconsistent weighting through corners at moderate pace.
Stepping into the C220d felt a very different car, with a feeling of greater fit and finish and better materials on the main touch points.
Starting off in Comfort mode the car felt smoother and more precise than the GLA, but when switched into Sport and Sport+ modes it felt a much more sporty proposition overall. The steering feel was the thing I noticed the most, feeling much more balanced and consistent compared to the GLA.
I've always felt Sport mode in the SLK makes the throttle too sensitive, with fairly minor bumps in the road translating to small movements in my foot on the accelerator, leading to a feeling of jerkiness. In the C-Class though this effect seems to be less pronounced, perhaps due to the lesser horsepower (167hp), but I'm hoping the German engineers have in fact fixed this!
The next question for me now would be, how does this compare to the #Jaguar #XE . Hopefully I'll be having a test drive soon before making my mind up which I'll be placing an order for within the next few weeks.
As a final plus point, the C-Class leasing deals seem to be becoming more competitive once again, which is a good thing with the XE, mid-life facelift 3-Series and all new Audi A4 looming on the horizon.

2002 Audi A4 3.0 quattro AWD 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 6M)
I really love this car. The 6 speed makes it a blast to drive and the performance is really good. All wheel drive makes winters fun too. Built nice and strong. Love this car and it loves me.
Power and 6 speed. Cool dash.
Rims scratch very easy - need to get better/harder rims. Steering wheel controls would be nice
2002 Audi A4 1.8T Fwd 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl Turbo 5M)
I bought my Audi from Audi USA (used with 3k). I bought it over the internet and shipped to Europe (wanted US Spec Car). I drove the car up to 128 MPH and it ran flawlessly. Hugged the road and driving at 100 MPH felt like going 55. I did have a problem with the gas cap sensor that Audi corrected. Overall the car has been great and provides super gas mileage while providing umph when you need it. It has the normal turbo lag but overall very pleased. Back seat could be a touch larger. Very glad I got the 1.8T motor over the 3.0. I had 3 series BMW before this one and prior had the Audi 4000CS. Not knocking the BMW but find the Audi more of a joy to drive. Enjoy!!!
Performance with such a small engine by far is the best feature and considering the gas mileage - its grand.
Back seat a bit tight. Would like to see bigger side mirrors. The Phatbox should be standard - love it!
This is a very comfortable, stable and fun car. I am a small woman and the car fits me perfectly. It has all the bells and whistles and a great highway ride. There is some lack of power initially at low speeds but the engine quickly responds. My major complaint is that the computer system is overly sensitive there have been many instances of warning lights coming on. I say that the car is "over enginered". I have had the car into the dealer on many more occasions than I think is reasonable for warning lights. Sometimes there was something actually wrong but many times the computer just needed to be reset.
My favorite feature is the comfortable seats with multiple adjustments and the movable steering wheel.
A review of this cars computer system is definitely needed.
2002 Audi A4 3.0 Avant quattro AWD 4dr Wagon (3.0L 6cyl 6M)
This car rocks! Handling, performance, utility, it has it all. 3.0 is much better than the 1.8 turbo with lag o'plenty. The A4 Avant is stylish and very well built, and Audi as a company does it right. Their maintenance program and professionals are top notch. Car is very high tech. They can program desired functionality within minutes at service, like auto door locking, windows pan-tilt when in reverse, etc. Love the memory seats and mirrors and dual climate control with heated seats.
All Wheel Drive (AWD) gives me tight turning radius and high-speed handling in the turns like nothing else.
Maybe better gas mileage, but with performance like this, that is going to take a small hit. They've really engineered this car well.
2002 Audi A4 1.8T quattro AWD 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl Turbo 5M)
Excellent vehicle, fun to drive and you are guaranteed to turn heads. Get a warranty, bought it used and it was over the 50,000 mark, expensive to fix (2000 for a clutch). I would buy another a4 in a heartbeat.
Interior, exterior style, bose audio, trunk space, and the handling is awesome.
Turbo lag and it needs a little bit more horsepower. '06 is a 6 speed, probably the way to go although the new body style isn't quite as sporty. Too expensive to fix, but hey it's German.

The Broncos' No. 2 defense was lucky on its first play. Seattle QB Matt Flynn threw a perfect 46-yard post pass on the first play against the Denver D's No. 2 defense — and former star receiver Terrell Owens flat dropped it.
On the plus side for T.O., he showed he still has what it takes to badly beat second-year cornerback Chris Harris. But he didn't so much drop the pass as Owens let the pass fall between his hands.

Your team could be our next ENY State Champs!
When FC Kansas City Won the NWSL Title
Eastern New York looks forward to working with him
Crystal played ODP and in the LIJSL
Congrats to the former ODP player
Enter the Youth Soccer Month giveaway.
Important words from Tim Bradbury
Should We Celebrate Or Cry About the New Standards From US Soccer?
Next year, the world of youth soccer will continue its evolution as all members of U.S. Soccer will begin to transition on two key factors to encourage further youth development.
Congratulations to the former East Fishkill SC President
ODP Tryouts to be held this month.
By Randy Vogt, Director of Public Relations, Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association
June 19, 2014-Tenacity and very important contributions by two girls named Megan were the difference as the Valley Stream Vipers defeated the South Huntington Strikers, 1-0, in a battle between two Long Island Junior Soccer League (LIJSL) teams. The final for the Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association's (ENYYSA) Girls-Under-15 Arch Capital Group Cup championship was played on June 7 at the Peter Collins Soccer Park in Plainview, Long Island.
Valley Stream's Megan Harvey scored the only goal of the game and keeper Megan Adams had the shutout.
"Tenacity was the difference in the final as we teach the players that their fate is in their hands," said Valley Stream coach Deidre Harvey. "It is not merely about one team verses another. When we play our game, we will prevail: take charge, go to the ball, win it and stay calm in the box."
"Of course, we are always a work in progress, yet these key concepts have gotten us this far," Coach Harvey added.
South Huntington received the Howard Rubenstein Sportsmanship Award as selected by game officials. Now retired and living in Ohio, the remarkable namesake of this award was seemingly involved in every facet of New York soccer for decades and is a member of the Halls of Fame of Eastern New York, the US Amateur Soccer Association and the Long Island Junior Soccer League.
Eastern New York would like to thank our sponsor, Arch Capital Group, which writes insurance and reinsurance on a worldwide basis through operations in the United States, Bermuda, Canada and Europe, with a focus on specialty lines.
"This cup competition is a great event in that it gives young people an opportunity to experience high levels of competition. And you don't have to be the best team in the state to win a championship with the Arch Capital Group Cup," said Brian Hughes, Senior Vice President and Chief Actuary of Arch Capital.
With 123,843 youth soccer players––68,587 boys and 55,256 girls––and more than 25,000 volunteers, the non-profit Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association (ENYYSA) stretches from Montauk Point, Long Island to the Canadian border. Members are affiliated with 12 leagues throughout the association, which covers the entire state of New York east of Route 81. Eastern New York exists to promote and enhance the game of soccer for children and teenagers between the ages of 5 and 19 years old, and to encourage the healthy development of youth players, coaches, referees and administrators. All levels of soccer are offered––from intramural, travel team and premier players as well as Special Children. No child who wants to play soccer is turned away. Eastern New York is a proud member of the United States Soccer Federation and United States Youth Soccer Association. For more information, please log on to http://www.enysoccer.com/, which receives nearly 300,000 hits annually from the growing soccer community.

If you're looking to help yourself or someone you love struggling with drug or alcohol abuse issues in Marion, OH, Rehabs.com offers access to a comprehensive online database of luxury private facilities, as well as an array of other choices.

Getting clean and sober from Librium, MSIR, alcohol or other addictive drugs you or your loved one is addicted to takes an specifically-tailored treatment schedule. Two options of substance abuse treatment facilities in Marion can help you succeed: either Inpatient or Outpatient Rehabilitation. Residential care offers lasting benefits with an extended stay in a top rated rehab center. Outpatient plans may be more opportune, but lack the stability and capability of one-month programs to become clean. Ultimately, you are in control of your decision, and we are here to help you pick the best fit.
Dual diagnosis refers to a person who is simultaneously coping with a drug or alcohol abuse issue and behavioral or mental issues. For instance, an addiction to Methadone, marijuana or amphetamine combined with depression or schizophrenia. For these cases, a residential treatment center becomes even more desirable, incorporating quality inpatient therapy with support group aid, such as one might see in Alcoholics Anonymous. Luxury drug rehabs in Marion, Ohio will provide the latest treatment with upscale amenities for anyone requiring the very best drug rehab, just as Marion alcohol rehab centers will help those battling alcohol addiction to get sober.
Note About Insurance for Addiction Treatment: Humana, ValueOptions and ComPsych usually cover at least some of your rehab stay, and you can find out more about your own carrier or benefits here.
If you or someone you know struggles with an addiction problem, getting the information you need can be the best first step you make towards taking back your life.
What's Different Between Holistic and Traditional Recovery Centers?
The recovery process is different for each person, just like how one treatment approach will work better for one type of person versus another. Traditional drug rehab clinics follow a standardized treatment approach that uses detox, talk therapies and 12-step programs to provide people with the coping skills needed to live a drug-free life. A holistic rehab program uses many of the same methods found in traditional programs while emphasizing a "whole person" approach that works with a person's mind, body and spirit within each stage of the treatment process.
Drug Abuse and Psychological Disorders
It's not uncommon for someone struggling with a drug addiction to suffer from other psychological conditions, such as depression or anxiety disorder. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental health treatment Administration, rates of drug addiction and co-occurring psychological conditions are as follows:

According to Marion Star News, highway troopers report drug violations in Marion have nearly doubled between the years 2010 and 2011.

Marion drug treatment centers can help a person replace their need for drugs with healthy, enjoyable activities that foster a stable, productive lifestyle. To learn more about your options in or near Marion, call us today.

Renegade's Magic (Mass Market Paperbound)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Loyal, privileged, and brave—a soldier in the service of the King of Gernia—Nevare Burvelle survived a devastating plague of enemy sorcery, but at a terrible cost to his soul, body, and heart. Now he stands wrongly accused of unspeakable crimes, including murder, the most heinous of them all. Suddenly an outcast and a fugitive, he remains a hostage to the Speck magic that shackles him to a savage alter ego who would destroy everything Nevare holds dear. Perhaps, however, this curse that has long abused him can be used by him instead—a mighty weapon he can learn to wield for his own purposes. But down what perilous road will this desperate new quest lead him? And what will be the ultimate incarnation of Nevare Burvelle?

"[A] master fantasist."
-Kansas City Star
"Robin Hobb is one of our very best fantasy writers. Her novels are always fresh, entertaining, and completely engrossing."
-Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Sandworms of Dune
"Hobb is probably one of the best writers of the fantasy genre currently operating. With Robin Hobb you do not get the standard good versus evil story in which every character is one or the other. Instead her characters are believable, human and flawed."

Wakizashi (companion sword) mounting
From Japan
17th century AD
The wakizashi (companion sword) was worn at all times, inside and out, by men of the samurai class.
The broad blade dating to the seventeenth century is typical of the Momoyama period (1568-1600) style, which continued for a few decades into the seventeenth century. It is signed 'Etchū no Kami Masatoshi' ('Masatoshi, honorary official of Etchū Province'), who belonged to the Sampin school.
The blade has a gently undulating hamon (the pattern of the crystalline structure of the blade edge), and is decorated with a single groove on one side, and, on the side shown here, another groove with a stylized ken (a double-edged sword of Esoteric Buddhist ritual).
The mounts, of the
Mino school, are made of

Munich is both the capital and the largest city in the state of Bavaria in Germany. It's one of the favored destinations for expatriates in the world. When travelers require cheap flights from Munich, they fly out of the Franz Josef Strauss International Airport. Serviced by Aeroflot, Air France, Delta Air Lines and United Airlines among others, the airport handles more than 30 million passengers a year. This makes it the world's 12th-busiest airport in the transport of international passengers, with many flights available for reservations through Orbitz.com.
Drivers to the airport can park at the underground garages P1 to P4 for short-term parking or the multi-story car parks P5, P7 and P8 for longer stays. The cost for short-term parking is about $5 for 30 minutes and long-term about $31.50 a day.
Getting to the Munich Airport is easy thanks to the S1 connection on the Munich suburban railway. The trip from the city center to the airport takes about 45 minutes to complete. The Lufthansa Airport Bus travels from downtown Munich, taking about 40 minutes and departing every 20 minutes for the airport at a cost of $13. Taxis can also be taken to the airport, with a drop-off service available in front of Terminal 2. Taxis are metered, with costs varying according to source location.
The Franz Josef Strauss International Airport offers several dining options, including the Airbrau Next to Heaven in Terminal 2 and, for those on a budget, the Allresto Snack Bar in Terminal 1.

I have a design problem in which I need a business logic to be also available in the presentation layer. The logic is currently in the domain layer. There is a service layer sitting on top of it which contains DTO of the domain objects. These DTOs are referenced by the WPF presentation layer in the form of WCF proxies. An example of domain object:
public class Grade
List<CriterionGrade> children = new List<CriterionGrade>();
public decimal FinalGrade
decimal final = 0;
foreach (CriterionGrade grade in CriterionGrades)
final += grade.Grade;
return final;
public IEnumerable<CriterionGrade> CriterionGrades
get { return children; }
public void AddCriterionGrade(CriterionGrade grade)
I need the totaling logic (among others), so in my UI, I can have a datagrid in which for every cell change, the total can be computed (think 50 rows 15 cols, the last col being FG for each row). I'm lost as to how to design this. I want to avoid having duplicate logic, and I am not sure if directly referencing domain objects is correct (from what I read, it is not).
I have already asked this (Can I use Domain Objects directly in Presentation Layer) and accepted an answer (which is sending the rows affected to the service layer for processing of computation) but trying it out, it's really slow and a lot of quick changes happen in the datagrid so I think the computation should be local.
Any ideas on how one should implement this?

Welcome to the Equal Opportunity and Title IX Office
Indiana State University has long been pledged to the principles of nondiscrimination and is firmly and unequivocally committed to the creation of a culturally diverse community among and between its faculty, staff, and students. Diversity within the University community advances the academic purpose of the University. Our expectation is that the University will do more than merely comply with legal requirements.
The Equal Opportunity and Title IX Office is responsible for carrying out Indiana State University's commitment to preventing discrimination on the basis of sex, race, age, national origin, sexual orientation, religion, disability or veteran status, against any of its employees, students or invited guests. This includes Title IX and Campus SaVE Act obligations related to sexual misconduct - including sexual violence and sexual harassment - intimate partner violence, and stalking.
Nominations for prospective Title IX Committee members should be submitted no later than Sunday, August 30, 2015. Appointments will be made during the week of August 31, 2015. Training will take place during the week of September 8, 2015. To nominate a faculty or staff member to serve on the Title IX Committee, please click HERE.
The Office of Equal Opportunity is seeking qualified candidates for appointment to the Title IX Committee. The Title IX Committee is comprised of twelve (12) representatives of ISU faculty and staff. Title IX Committee members – working in panels of three - are responsible for reviewing cases involving alleged violations of ISU's Policy Prohibiting Sexual Misconduct, Intimate Partner Violence, and Stalking where a student is the respondent. Title IX Committee members must participate in an initial training session and additional training sessions throughout the academic year.
We are looking for a diverse group of ISU faculty and staff members who have exhibited fairness, integrity, and impartiality in their interactions with students and colleagues, who are committed to a thorough and unbiased review of information, who keep student well-being at the forefront, and who are willing and able to make difficult decisions. Title IX Committee members should expect to be called upon to serve approximately once every two weeks in addition to initial training obligations.
Title IX Committee members will generally serve three-year terms, though in the first year terms will be staggered for long-term consistency.

Military Attrition:
DOD Needs to Follow Through on Actions Initiated to Reduce Early Separations
T-NSIAD-99-80: Published: Feb 24, 1999. Publicly Released: Feb 24, 1999.

- Full Report:
(202) 512-5140
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO discussed recruiting and attrition in the military services, focusing on: (1) recruiter selection and incentive systems and their effects on recruiter performance; (2) the screening of incoming recruits for criminal history information to ensure that only qualified persons are allowed to enlist; (3) reasons for attrition during the first 6 months of an enlistee's term; and (4) reasons for premature attrition after first-term enlistees have completed 6 months of service.
GAO noted that: (1) for at least the last decade, about one-third of all Department of Defense (DOD) enlistees have failed to complete their initial terms of service; (2) this attrition rate represents a costly problem; (3) GAO calculates that the services spent $1.3 billion to recruit and train 72,670 enlistees who entered the services in fiscal year 1993 but were separated before the end of their first term; (4) clearly, the services did not receive a full return on their investment; (5) GAO's work since 1995 has shown that to decrease this attrition rate, the services needed to: (a) revise their recruiter selection and award systems to create more incentives to recruit enlistees who are likely to complete basic training; (b) improve the medical, physical, and criminal screening of incoming recruits to ensure that only those fully qualified are enlisted; and (c) gather more comprehensive data on why enlistees are being separated early to allow DOD and the services to craft effective retention policies; (6) in response to GAO's recommendations, DOD and the services have already initiated many actions to reduce attrition; (7) the services are beginning to tie recruiter awards more closely to recruits' successful completion of basic training and to use better tools to select new recruiters; (8) to improve the screening of applicants for service, DOD has revised its medical history forms, and the services have worked toward making their pre-entry physical fitness programs more rigorous; (9) DOD has also agreed to strengthen criminal background screening by requiring full fingerprint checks and other technological improvements; (10) however, for all of these actions to result in a reduction of enlisted attrition, DOD and the services must vigilantly follow through on these actions and assess their effects; (11) one of DOD's major efforts will take a long time to complete, the creation of a database on reasons for premature separations; (12) DOD has made good progress toward creating databases on medical separations and on enlistment waivers; (13) also, DOD has just completed phase one of its effort to improve separation codes; (14) DOD's next step is to standardize the application of these codes among all the DOD agencies that use them; and (15) creating accurate data on why enlistees are leaving before the end of their first terms will enable the services to craft successful policies to retain enlistees and allow DOD to set reasonable goals for reducing attrition.

The New York Yankees and Philadelphia Phillies were supposed to be the main attraction Thursday night at Game 2 of the World Series. But Jay-Z and Alicia Keys turned the players into fans during a rocking pre-game performance of their hit song "Empire State of Mind."
Jay-Z prowled the outfield stage in a Yankees cap and varsity jacket, rapping his New York anthem, while Keys belted out the chorus, first while seated at her piano and then from center stage.
Cameras caught players from both dugouts bobbing their heads and enjoying the show, and the Yankees seemed unperturbed by Jay-Z's somewhat controversial lyric, "I made the Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can."
