Great vacation property, great location, and great service. The staff, especially Danny made the vacation extra special by going the extra mile. The house is dated in certain areas especially the bathrooms but this wasn't a big deal since 90% of your time is spent outdoors.
Beautiful beach and child friendly.
Great place for a vacation with family and friends.
Be back soon.
Everything about this vacation, including the booking process, assistance, actual location/villa and the staff at the villa were amazing. Our family enjoyed the special treatment provided by the villa staff and, as the organizer, I particularly appreciated the advice of the concierge and ease of booking. The villa size was perfect - we could all be together or doing our separate activities without tripping over one another. The meals provided were marvelous and the villa staff were exceptional at recommending activities. No words can describe how much we all loved the villa and staff and how much we enjoyed our time at Sweet Spot!
Our vacation was awesome and very relaxing thanks mostly to the accommodations! We came to Jamaica with the intentions of partying and touring here and there, however once we landed at Sweet Spot we couldn't part away from it for too long of a time! We enjoyed our stay and seriously did not want to leave when the time came for us to do so. I've had other villa experiences before in Jamaica but nothing compared to Sweet Spot. Absolutely beautiful and comfortable and the staff was wonderful, they took care of all of our needs.
The home was very well appointed and the staff made us feel like kings and queens for the week! They were there to help us but did not get in our way. Everyone had their personal space but when we came together, it was easy to relax and fun. Danny was fabulous, Rose was a terrific cook and very accommodating and the others were very personable as well. We also had a driver that worked well with the staff so everything was in sync - no problems mahn! There were only two problems - we didn't stay long enough and our 9 month old granddaughter got attacked by mosquitoes. Even there, Danny was there to help. He found a mosquito net for her crib and that helped immensely! All in all, it was a fantastic vacation spot and we enjoyed every minute with beautiful people.
We had a great time. The house was beautiful and very comfortable. The beach was spectacular. The staff catered to all out needs, were very attentive and helpful. Food was very good. We had no need to leave the house at all.
The house was fabulous, laid out well, plenty of space for all, lovely amenities and fabulous staff. Our family is all into working out on a daily basis and the machines in the workout room are quite outdated and don't function very well. It was difficult to use them.
There are villas adjacent to Sweet Spot and the second night of our stay there was a party at one of the villas next door that had the most blaring, pounding music playing that it actually shook the beds in our villa and continued until 12:35 AM. There must be some curfew in place that the authorities can enforce. The staff needs to be able to contact someone to get resolution. It was really most intrusive and unpleasant.
All of the staff were amazing, and Donny was there to accommodate all of our requests and Rose put out delicious meals and was always happy to prepare any special meals.

In order to convert scatter uncorrected into corrected SPECT image, an image-based scatter correction (IBSC) method has been developed. The aim of this study was validation of its role as image converter from scatter uncorrected into corrected images equivalent to image corrected by conventional TEW method. IBSC method is executed in the postreconstruction process and only requires an attenuation corrected main photopeak image with broad μ value, IACμb. The scatter component image is estimated by convolving IACμb with a scatter function followed by multiplying with an image-based scatter fraction (SF) function. The IBSC method was evaluated with Monte Carlo simulations and 99mTc-ECD SPECT human brain perfusion studies obtained from five volunteers. The noise property of the scatter corrected image using IBSC method, IIBSC, was compared with that by TEW method, ITEW, with simulated brain phantom images. Image contrast between gray with white matter in the human study was also compared between IBSC and TEW method. The global signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of IIBSC was decreased to 14% compared to that of IACμb, whereas that of ITEW was decreased to 21%. In human brain imaging, significant difference in image contrast between IBSC and TEW method was not observed (p<0.05). In conclusion, the IBSC method could be applied to clinical brain perfusion SPECT as conversion IACμb into a scatter corrected image equivalent to ITEW. This achieves a better noise property than the TEW method.

2000 Saab 9-5 2.3t 4dr Sedan
Its time to trade this car. This car has had four major repairs since we owned it. When the car is not having a problem it is enjoyable to drive.
I like the interior of this car with all it's many options.
This car needs to have recalls on it's frequent and common repairs. I'm sad to say I will not buy another.
I want to correct other users comments. All Saab 9-5s have heated mirrors, they are integrated into the rear window defrost (front defrost works instantly, no waiting for engine to warm). XM radio is offered as a dealer aftermarket accessory that replaces a console cubby hole below the automatic climate control.
You can see from the prolific text that despite its issues, I love this car.
Delete On-star. Useless feature that causes as many problems as is solves.
Reliability is less than stellar. I love my Saab. For the price it is far superior than any other car. Ride is excellent, lots of power, great ergonomics/comfort. I bought a used car w/49K miles, however the turbo blew at 53K (covered under warranty + free towing), the paint is VERY fragile (has gouges in hood from the tow, and keeps getting scratches in parking garage from other drivers resting briefcases on the trunk, top). I am now taking maintenance VERY seriously (there are several other common problems). However, for the safety, performance, and style there is no equal.
The drivetrain warranty has been recently extended to 80,000/unlimited miles under approved Saab maintenance (despite this web site's saying otherwise, see saabnet.com) in order to address engine issues. The turbo is amazing. While this car is not 0-60 fast, it has extra power at any speed.
Reliability, reliaiblity, reliability. Electronic displays commonly lose pixels and engine problems. However, this car is all but theft proof (a big comfort since my Subaru Outback was stolen). Also, I'm not a fan of GM's ownership of Saab (esp. since GM mechanics don't service them).
The 9-5 continues the SAAB tradition of providing an economical, sporty, cavernous luxury car in one package. It is great.
Performance, fuel economy, comfort
Since buying my certified pre-owned
2000 Saab 9-5 in July of 2003, I've
been enjoying a smooth, comfortable
ride with little to no quality
problems. I would definitely recommend
this car to other purchasers,
particularly the certified pre-owned
program at Saab. The trunk space is
fantastic, and it drives great in the
harsh winter weather on icy roads (I
live in Michigan). A very safe feeling
car. My only complaint is a little big
of lag in the acceleration, but it's
not so much that it drives me crazy.
Overall a great car at a solid price.

France and United Kingdom
• French Ambassador to the United Kingdom: Ms Sylvie Bermann (since September 2014).
• British Ambassador to France: Sir Peter Ricketts since February 2012 (presentation of credentials on 11 July 2012).
Political relations
France and the United Kingdom are the only two European countries that have nuclear weapons and are permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. Both countries have international ambitions and the political and military tools to match, often sharing similar approaches within international organizations, including the UN.
Our bilateral relations are driven by regular contacts at all levels, including annual summits. Joint initiatives, in particular during the financial crisis, have been frequent and productive. Dialogue in the context of the French Presidency of the G8/G20 was significant at many levels, and the British Prime Minister chaired a working group on global governance. The 33ʳᵈ Franco-British Summit (31 January 2014) took place at the RAF Brize Norton base, marking the vitality of Franco-British defence cooperation, particularly as regards capabilities. Following the conclusion of the trade agreement on the construction of two EPR reactors on the Hinkley Point site, energy was a major issue at the last summit. Several agreements will help strengthen synergies between our nuclear sectors. Space is also the subject of promising recent cooperation, and the French Space Agency (CNES) and the UK Space Agency are working together on earth observation.
Defence cooperation
The 31ˢᵗ bilateral summit held in London on 2 November 2010 marked a turning point for our relations in defence matters. The President of the French Republic and the British Prime Minister signed two major treaties, known as the "Lancaster House" treaties, which were ratified in spring 2011 and are now in force.
• The first is a defence and security treaty, concerning the operational aspect (joint exercises), the capabilities aspect, the research and development aspect, and the industrial aspect (missiles) of our military cooperation. Among other provisions, it provides for pooling of assets;
• The second is a specific treaty, made possible by the first, on common facilities for nuclear cooperation.
The treaties also provide for the creation of a Combined Joint Expeditionary Force, a rapidly deployable force that could be committed in bilateral operations but also in the framework of international coalitions. Large-scale exercises of the naval component (October 2012), air component (October 2013) and army component (May 2014) have marked major phases in the build-up of the Combined Joint Expeditionary Force, which will become operational in 2016.
The Franco-British summit of February 2012 supplemented the Lancaster House commitments through the announcement of the creation of a deployable Combined Joint Force Headquarters, expanded numbers of exchange officers, and a joint programme to develop combat drones.
The Brize Norton summit (31 January 2014) maintained the momentum of our defence cooperation. In accordance with the roadmap set out on 31 January 2014, the British and French defence ministers signed agreements in Farnborough on 15 July that year to initiate a feasibility study for a Future Combat Air System (FCAS).
UK logistical support in Mali and the Central African Republic demonstrated the quality of our defence cooperation.
Commemorations of the centenary of the First World War
£50 million (€62 million) were allocated to the commemoration programme of the United Kingdom, covering, in addition to the commemorations of joining the war (4 August 2014), the events marking the beginning of the Battle of the Somme (1 July 2016) and other events to mark the Battles of Jutland, Gallipoli and Passchendaele and the signing of the Armistice (11 November 2018).

Economic relations
There is considerable trade between our two countries, and in 2014, the UK was France's fifth-largest export market (€30,279 billion) and eighth-largest supplier (€19,593 billion of imports). France is the fifth-largest customer and fifth-largest supplier of the UK, with a market share of almost 6%.
For the ninth year running, the United Kingdom remained France's largest bilateral trade surplus (€10.68 billion for goods) in 2014.
On services, France is one of the few countries to generate a surplus vis-à-vis the United Kingdom (€3.1 billion in 2012), due to tourism. The bilateral surplus is explained in large part by good performance in the transport equipment and pharmaceuticals sectors.
Recent major contracts have included the selection of EDF Energy in late 2013 for the planned Hinkley Point C nuclear plant (two EPRs), one of the UK's largest investments since the Second World War.
• Exports from France to the United Kingdom (2014): €30,279 billion
• Imports from the United Kingdom to France (2014): €19,593 billion
• French companies in the United Kingdom (2011 – INSEE): 3232 companies – 379,455 jobs
• British companies in the United Kingdom (2013 – Invest in France Agency): 2000 companies – more than 200,000 jobs
• Bilateral trade balance (2014): €10.68 billion
• Total trade (2014): €49.9 billion
• French FDI outflow (2013): €972 million;
Statistical sources: French Directorate-General of the Treasury (February 2015)
Cultural, scientific and technical cooperation
Cultural and scientific exchanges, which involve a great number of actors, are developing through direct links between universities, museums, institutes, research centres and foundations. Our cooperation seeks to promote the French language and teaching thereof, debate, and academic cooperation in the humanities, particularly with Cambridge. There is also an ongoing policy of supporting the cultural industries and French exporters on a highly buoyant market in many areas, including contemporary music, contemporary art, publishing, cinema and the audiovisual sector, and video games.
The bilateral administrative arrangement on educational cooperation, signed on 9 June 2006, provides an official framework and momentum in this sector, which involves teacher training, school partnerships and exchanges on themes of common interest. The UK remains the Western European country (excluding Belgium and Switzerland) where French is most widely studied.
Following the opening in September 2011 of the bilingual French school in London (Collège français bilingue de Londres) with 700 places, the new international Lycée Winston Churchill (North-West London), with a capacity of over 1000 pupils, will open in September 2015.
There are close to 14,000 French students in the UK, while about 3000 British students are studying in France.
Further information: www.institut-francais.org.uk/
Other types of cooperation
Cooperation on security and combating illegal immigration
Cooperation in combating illegal immigration is a priority of the UK authorities and our bilateral cooperation which is multi-faceted and implemented in the framework of a series of bilateral agreements, in particular the 1991 Sangatte Protocol and the Le Touquet Treaty of 4 February 2003. It particularly involves the implementation of border checks in the Channel and North Sea ports and the organization of juxtaposed control stations, especially on the Channel Tunnel Fixed Link. Respective information centres have been set up in Calais and Folkestone.
Moreover, France and the United Kingdom worked closely together to ensure the safety and security of the Olympic and Paralympic Games in London, which were held from 27 July to 12 August 2012 and from 29 August to 9 September 2012 respectively.
Channel Tunnel
The current legal regime applicable to the Channel Tunnel Fixed Link is defined by the provisions of the Treaty of Canterbury of 12 February 1986 concerning the Construction and Operation by Private Concessionaires of a Channel Fixed Link and the provisions of the quadripartite Concession of 14 March 1986 between the French and British Governments and the concessionaire Eurotunnel. An Intergovernmental Commission (IGC) was established "to supervise, in the name and on behalf of the two Governments, all matters concerning the construction and operation of the Fixed Link." It holds regulatory powers as regards the Fixed Link.

"There were times that she wasn't in the starting lineup, and that had to be frustrating for her. She just put her head down and worked that much harder, which showed her younger teammates that hard work does pay off."
Related quotes
"We went with a little different starting lineup and we were a little out of rhythm to start. We are usually a pretty quick-starting team. Once we got on a roll with our transition game the defense picked up a little bit, too. Everybody has a little more fun when the ball starts going in the basket."
"The starting lineup has been solid. Some nights they get off to good starts, some nights they don't. If you do make a change in the starting lineup, it kind of singles out a guy. I think we're close to having a lot more wins than we have and I don't think changing the starting lineup does anything."
"After that first game, we just turned it on and started hitting the ball. Almost everybody in the lineup had a hit."
"Some games she's been starting, I've been changing the lineup a little bit. She's been pretty consistent … she's a good shooter and she has good range, she's got a lot to learn but she's been playing hard … for us."
"We're just starting to get used to our new lineup again. We've kind of been changing things around a little bit more, but we're confident that we have the ability to beat everyone with the support we have."

Generation of Swine: Tales of Shame and Degradation in the '80sby Hunter S. Thompson
View All Available Formats & Editions
Here, against a backdrop of late-night tattoo/i>/i>/i>
From the bestselling author of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, the legendary Hunter S. Thompson's second volume of the "Gonzo Papers" is back. Generation of Swine collects hundreds of columns from the infamous journalist's 1980s tenure at the San Francisco Examiner.
Here, against a backdrop of late-night tattoo sessions and soldier-of-fortune trade shows, Dr. Thompson is at his apocalyptic best—covering emblematic events such as the 1987-88 presidential campaign, with Vice President George Bush, Sr., fighting for his life against Republican competitors like Alexander Haig, Pat Buchanan, and Pat Robertson; detailing the GOP's obsession with drugs and drug abuse; while at the same time capturing momentous social phenomena as they occurred, like the rise of cable, satellite TV, and CNN—24 hours of mainline news. Showcasing his inimitable talent for social and political analysis, Generation of Swine is vintage Thompson—eerily prescient, incisive, and enduring.

Gonzo journalism at its best as Hunter S. Thompson surveys the political landscape of the early 80s in search of the lost American dream. Generation of Swine: Gonzo Papers Vol. 2: Tales of Shame and Degradation in the '80s, reads like a collection of his journals and writings from this famed writers. Hunter puts together a collection of his writings and thoughts that delve on subjects all across the spectrum. Reading this book close to 25 years after its publication gives you a yearning for a simpler time. No war, out of control deficits or a broken partisan system existed at that time. He ends with his disdain of Daddy Bush, but covers the whole spectrum of the happenings of the bubble gum pop Gipper lead era.

Digital technologies are reshaping every business and industry. When it comes to externally sourced operations and business services, however, too many buyer-provider relationships are still stuck in an analog world. They are transferring existing processes to a provider without transforming those processes and capabilities. In this environment, today's leading technologies can deliver competitive advantage.
New, Accenture-sponsored research finds that analytics and automation technologies are most relevant to buyers of externally provided business services today, but that other technologies such as cloud, mobility and social media are rising and will continue to rise in importance over the next couple of years.
How can these technologies be integrated into existing operations environments to drive innovation and improved business value? Our analysis points to four pillars of an effective technology strategy:
Executing processes on a resilient digital platform that's secure, available on demand and easy to set up and use.
Offering anytime, anywhere digital insights, driven by analytics, that improve business performance.
Creating a digital workforce platform of connected information workers, using advanced monitoring, search and analytics tools.
Proactively managing a digital innovation ecosystem comprising multiple partners to incorporate the latest available technologies

Read an Excerpt
A Parental Job Description
The trouble with being a parent is that by the time you're experienced…you're unemployed.
The job description of a parent is to provide a secure environment that champions solid standards.
Obviously, every kid at every age needs this. But with teens,
such an environment provides fertile ground for them to respect and trust us, look to us for guidance, and talk more honestly and openly with us.
So what does this haven of rest—with unconditional love as its foundation—look like?
This safe haven is framed with standards—the plumb line by which life is measured and the starting point for discerning right from wrong.
These standards provide the structure for everyday life. And in many ways, they determine the very quality of life.
Do you ever wonder which standards you should champion? With the glut of belief systems today, how do you know which standards are best? Because the Bible is the ultimate and perfect source of standards, let God's Word be your guide.
Parents' actions speak volumes about their own standards. Because how we live—not what we say—is the clearest reflection of what we believe. When we reflect strength of character and love to our children,
we pass along those standards to them. And then, when they are no longer living under our roof, those standards will be their North
Star…pointing to abundant life.
The solid standards mentioned above can only be developed in a secure and loving environment. Teenagers need a safe and loving place where they can develop their own beliefs, values, and identities.
Are you providing this kind of environment? Does your teen feel safe enough to discuss anything and everything with you?
As a youth pastor, I (Kent) spend a lot of time talking to teenagers. Since recently moving back to Atlanta after several years, I
have reconnected with some of the guys, now in their late twenties,
who were in my first youth group fifteen years ago. One guy, whom
I'll call Jay, always had a great relationship with his mom and dad.
When we recently met for coffee to catch up on old times, I asked him how his parents were doing. He proceeded to go off for ten minutes,
telling me how great they were and how much he respected them. As I
dug deeper, I asked him what made his parents so great. He replied without hesitation, "I've always been able to talk to them about anything.
They love me unconditionally."
As Jay grabbed at the chance to talk about the secure environment his parents had created for him, I couldn't help but think of a very different story—about a very different family. A few weeks earlier I had done some catching up with another guy named Blake. As we sipped our coffee (yes, I love coffee), he asked my advice on a number of issues. When I asked him what his parents' take was on these things,
he said, "We don't talk about stuff like this. My family is detached relationally."
Amazing! Here was a young man, almost thirty years old, who still didn't feel safe enough with his parents to discuss issues that were very important to him.
Like we said…security is a big deal.
You've probably heard the saying, "You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time."
But when it comes to relating to teens, we would have to say: "You can't fool any of them ever!"
Yes, when it comes to character, teens have a sixth sense. They can smell a fake a mile away. If we don't live what we say we believe, they'll see right through us. Even more, they'll never confide in us because they don't feel they can trust us to safely guide them in the right way.
But, if they can trust us to point them in the right direction, down a path we are already on ourselves, they will look to us for guidance.
Bottom Line: Teens talk more honestly and openly in a secure home environment where solid standards are championed.
Authenticity Is Huge
Actions speak louder than words, especially for parents and pastors.
-Jenna, 15
In May of 1990, my (Connie) dad had quintuple bypass surgery. My youngest daughter and I flew to Oklahoma to be with my parents while my husband and twins stayed back at our home in Omaha. For the next week we became extremely familiar with the hospital. In fact,
when my cousin Jeanette asked my not quite two-year-old daughter where her new home was, she replied, "The hospital."
Since visiting hours were limited, we had a lot of time on our hands and would often visit the hospital gift shop. On one such visit, a plaque on the wall caught my attention.
Small and simply framed were these poignant words:
Your walk talks
And your talk talks
But your walk talks more
Than your talk talks.
As we briefly mentioned earlier, teens are geniuses at zeroing in on hypocritical behavior. If we want our teens to talk to us and—far more than that—if we want our teens to respect us, we need to make certain our walk and our talk line up.
For instance, let's say Johnny just turned thirteen. As he and his dad walk toward the ticket booth at the movie theater, they both look at the large sign indicating ticket prices are five dollars for children,
ages three to twelve; and ten dollars for adults, ages thirteen and older.
Dad and son look at each other and give the signal—they've done this before. Johnny is thirteen, not twelve, but Dad buys him a childpriced ticket anyway—both know they'll spend the "saved" money on concessions. Of course, the ticket agent doesn't question the dad because he doesn't look like someone who would lie.
Dad may have thought he saved five dollars, and Johnny may be happy with his extra large popcorn and soda. But something of much greater value than a measly five dollars is at stake here: Johnny knows he's thirteen. Dad's probably told him that lying and stealing are wrong, but this little lesson in lying, cheating, and stealing says just the opposite.
Johnny may not know what the word integrity means, but in his gut he knows that the deception was wrong…and he knows his dad knows it too.
There really isn't any such thing as a little white lie. Involving children in lying, cheating, and stealing is always a very big thing. And yet many parents don't even think twice about telling their children to tell a caller that they're not home—when they are! Or telling them to tell their teachers they were sick—when in fact you extended your family vacation.
On the one hand, we ask our kids to tell lies when it's convenient for us, but then on that same day we ground them for lying to us when it's convenient for them.
Talk about mixed messages! No wonder they don't bother talking to us.
So this brings us to the question: Who wants to talk over the issues of life with a thief and a liar? Not anyone we know. Sure, our kids may still talk to us, but it won't be about anything of much depth or significance.
Even if we are honest most of the time, our kids will still notice the couple of times we shade the truth to our own advantage…and they will wonder why we preach one message but live a different one.
Kids are smart. If we can't be trusted to be honest with a five dollar difference in the price of a ticket, why should they trust us with what is near and dear to their teenage souls?
Bottom Line: Your character shouldn't be "for sale."
