The luxury destination club has increased its destination portfolio by more than 33% in 2012, adding 20 new destinations. Members now have access to more than 170 luxury residences and experiences in more than 60 of the world's most sought-after destinations.
There are two new membership structures under which members first choose whether they want access to the Quintess luxury vacations during peak holidays or are happy to travel just at non-peak times. Under both options new members pay a one off, non-refundable membership fee and then pay a set amount per night, for the nights they want to vacation with the club each year. Members can always pay for additional nights if they go over their membership nights in a year.
The new membership structures are:
|Pricing Plans
|Lifetime Non-Holiday
|Lifetime Holiday
|Membership Funding
|Length of Membership
|Annual Nights
|Cost per Night
The Quintess Collection provides its members with vacations and adventures through three distinctive portfolios - Quintess, Quintess Beyond and Quintess Adventures:
Quintess - Quintess residences are the heart of The Quintess Collection's luxury home portfolio. Owned or managed by the Club to ensure its world-class standards, Quintess is made up of residences averaging $4 million in value, including homes in Aspen, Hawaii, Jackson Hole, London, Los Cabos, New York City, Paris, Tuscany and many more.
Quintess Beyond - Quintess Beyond residences are luxury properties hand-picked by the Club, including all TOUR CLUB golf properties, the world's finest resorts like Pelican Hill, Tucker's Point and the Sonoma Mission Inn, and superb villas, estate homes, and apartments sourced directly from luxury residence owners. Recent additions this year include Barcelona, Provence and Nantucket. On-site member services are provided through those trusted partners in concert with Quintess' proprietary Collective iQ™ platform.
Quintess Adventures - Quintess Adventures are experiences crafted by the Club's in-house experts in close partnership with world-class travel providers. Members can enjoy personalized one-of-a-kind vacations from a Gorilla Trek in Rwanda or a Cultural Tour in Bhutan and India to a VIP experience at the U.S. Open in New York. Quintess Adventures make every day matter based on the member's wishes. The Club adds new Adventures annually based on member feedback and requests.
"We've been able to enhance the value of membership in The Quintess Collection by offering the most exceptional range of homes and destinations than at any time in our history. We plan to do the same next year, and our goal is to offer more than 100 destinations to our members by 2014." Said Pete Estler, Founder and CEO of Club Holdings, the parent company of The Quintess Collection.
Members use their base plan nights to reserve homes or vacations in all three portfolios. Some homes or vacations may be for a fraction of a plan night (eg for 0.7 base plan nights), some may be for a multiple (eg 1.6) base plan nights, all depending on the size, scale and scope of the vacation or residence.
As with other destination clubs, Quintess Collection members also benefit from customized travel planning, exclusive relationships with renowned private clubs and resorts and the expertise of a knowledgeable Member Relations team and local Destination Hosts.

Sandler and friends reunite for lazy, unfunny sequel
Despite being lambasted by critics, 2010's "Grown Ups" was an enormous hit, grossing $162 million domestically and another $109 million worldwide. It stands to reason that "Grown Ups 2" will do just as well — even though it's made for home viewing when you're flipping channels late at night and nothing else is on.
Once again, producer/co-writer/star Adam Sandler decided to gather all his friends and hang out for a few months — and get a major studio to pay for their get-together. Sometimes you wonder if they even knew (or cared) that cameras were rolling. »Read Full Article(4)

Parks, we often speak of them romantically, as retreats to nature, though they are as man-made as sidewalks and City Hall.

Technology resurrects history
Published: Sunday, May 21, 2006 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, May 21, 2006 at 12:37 a.m.
Thank heavens for microfilm and for those folks who preserved old newspapers long enough to be microfilmed. Whenever travel forces me to prepare a batch of columns and "memories" articles in advance, I draw heavily on such library newspaper resources.
I ventured into Alaska for months last year, armed with dozens of digital photographs of selected microfilmed newspaper pages, all stored in my laptop. Every week, I drew another Photographs and Memories article from this private collection.
I had spent literally months in the Terrebonne Parish Main Library, scanning reel after reel of articles published years ago in area newspapers, selecting likely stories for my collection.
Manipulation: Over time, I learned to tinker with the images electronically, removing scratches, improving the contrast for use as illustrations for articles.
That was last year, and we were traveling in a camper with plenty of room for a computer and accessories essential to processing the information.
As you read this, I am traveling in Ireland, unencumbered by the necessity for carrying my laptop or searching out a link to e-mail columns home. I prepared and left behind this column and the others published in my absence.
Technology: Its a complicated and remarkable technology that allowed me to write while traveling last summer.
Think of it. An article in a newspaper published in the 1800s, when pen and ink were the communication tools of business, was copied onto microfilm in the 1900s, making the article available to my 2000s digital camera.
Then, a combination of computer and Internet permitted my transmitting articles, photographs and columns, almost instantly from a campground in Alaska to The Courier in Houma for publication.
Similar technology, of course, sends snapshots taken by a built-in camera from one cell phone to another, thousands of miles away, and theres no end in sight.
Flaws: The Wednesday articles I write and edit are a kind of history, of course, but most of them are based upon the newspapers version of what happened, without corroborating backup information from other sources.
Sometimes the paper failed to follow up the original story and provide clarifying details.
Sometimes, it is impossible to determine whether the newspaper followed up or not, since some issues -- even months and years of issues -- did not survive to be microfilmed.
Unless they turn up in a dusty closet or filing cabinet somewhere, those papers and the historical information they contained, are lost forever.
Keepers: But there are savers about, "packrats" who hang onto special newspapers.
Juliet Henry is one such "saver," and she has let me borrow her copies of the Couriers published in connection with the Terrebonne Sesquicentennial celebrations in 1972. I believe that both papers are also on microfilm, but the photographic images they contain are likely to be of substantially higher quality than those on microfilm.
Im saving them for a careful examination when I return late this month.
Responding? Contact Bill Ellzey at 985 381-6256, at 985 876-5638, at email@example.com or c/o The Courier, P.O. Box 2717, Houma, LA 70361.

A single-institution Phase I clinical trial was conducted to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and define the safety profile of temozolomide and capecitabine when used in combination to treat brain metastases from breast cancer.
Patients were eligible if they had bidimensionally measurable supratentorial or infratentorial brain metastasis from histologically confirmed breast carcinoma. Patients could have received up to 3 prior chemotherapy regimens. Temozolomide and capecitabine were administered concomitantly to 4 sequential cohorts at different dosing levels on Days 1–5 and Days 8–12, with cycles repeated every 21 days until disease progression.
Twenty-four patients with multiple brain lesions were treated, including 14 patients with newly diagnosed brain metastases and 10 patients with recurrent brain metastases. Only 1 patient was chemotherapy-naive. Fatigue and nausea were the most commonly observed toxicities observed at any dose levels. Significant antitumor activity was observed, with a total of 1 complete and 3 partial responses (18% objective response rate) in the brain. The median response duration was 8 weeks (range, 6–64 weeks) and the median time to progression in the brain was 12 weeks (range, 3–70 weeks). Neurocognitive function improved or remained stable in patients with a response or stable disease.
The combination of temozolomide and capecitabine is an active, well-tolerated regimen. The observed antitumor activity warrants further evaluation of this combination as an alternative to or in combination with whole-brain radiation therapy for the treatment of multiple brain metastases.

Utah Jazz rookie Rudy Gobert gets a car full of kernels for forgetting the doughnuts
Jeremiah Jensen, Ch. 5
SALT LAKE CITY — If Rudy Gobert smells like Orville Redenbacher for the next year or if he's nicknamed "The Kernel," there's a good explanation.
The Utah Jazz center forgot to bring doughnuts to Monday morning's shootaround.
Gobert's teammates let him know about the faux pas by, of course, filling his car up with popcorn.
Buttered popcorn.
Lots and lots of buttered popcorn.
"Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan," Gobert tweeted with an Instagram picture of his corny car.
"I knew something was coming. I could feel it," Gobert told Channel 5, which had a camera on the scene when he discovered the bags of popcorn dumped into his car's interior. "I don't know that (prank would happen). I was surprised."
Multiple teammates walked by Gobert's car, laughed and shook their heads when seeing how many kernels were inside.
Gobert initially started dumping the popcorn on the players' parking lot. But EnergySolutions Arena employees helped him clean his car and the mess on the concrete. The cleaning crew even brought out a leaf blower to help get the kernels out.
Third-year guard Alec Burks told KSL sports broadcaster Jeremiah Jensen that never happened to him.
"I (did) it right," Burks said as he entered his clean vehicle.
"That was my mistake," Gobert admitted. "But I guarantee that the rookies if I'm here the next few years they'll get something, too."
Gobert didn't hesitate when asked who the culprit was.
I'm sure it's Rich Jefferson," he said. "I know it's him."
Jefferson denied any and all culpability.
"No, No, No," Jefferson said. "If I did, I probably wouldn't tell anybody, but, no, it wasn't me."
He then called reporters to the witness stand (the imaginary one in the locker room), and asked media to collaborate the story that he didn't have any popcorn bags in his hands after shootaround.
"When I came out, there was popcorn in his car. I have no idea. I didn't see (bleep)," Jefferson said. "I think the better question would be asking him what happened and how it came to that. That's a much better question."
Regardless of the who and how, the prank gave Gobert an unexpected chore between shootaround and Monday's game against Boston.
"Headed to the car wash," he wrote on Twitter shortly after noon.
All of which raises an even better question: The Jazz center needs to be called "The Kernel" or "Kernel Gobert" now, right?
NEW SUPERHERO?: The last time Jefferson was seen after shootaround, he was teasing Gordon Hayward (with no popcorn in sight). As the shooting guard prepared to chat with reporters, the NBA veteran (called a 39-year-old by his younger teammate) jokingly introduced Hayward.
"Captain America," Jefferson said.
New nickname?
"No," Hayward said. "It isn't."
Jefferson loudly disagreed as he entered the locker room.
"Yes it is!" Jefferson said. "He even cut his hair like him."
STOCKTON STORIES: Boston rookie Kelly Olynyk said he'd hear Jazz stories "all the time" from David Stockton, his former Gonzaga teammate and son of Hall of Famer John Stockton.
"It was pretty cool hearing his stories, whether they were from the Jazz, the Dream Team or All-Stars," Olynyk said. "He's got a lot of them."
His favorite?
"(David) used to tell me that he and his brothers would be Rollerblading around the arena (then the Delta Center), down the ramp, and he crashed into a vending machine and it broke his collarbone," he said, smiling. "It's pretty funny."
Years later it is, at least.
John Stockton didn't think so at the time. As the legendary story goes, the Jazz point guard was not thrilled to be pulled out of practice to attend to the painful tomfoolery.
POOL BOY: Olynyk tried to, well, soak in the experience of being around John Stockton while the Hall of Famer supported his son and the Zags.
"He's just like a big pool of knowledge and hopefully you get a chance to dive into it," Olynyk said. " Anything you could pick his brain with is pretty special. He's been around the game so much. He just knows the game so well, playing however many years he did here (19), playing how many ever All-Star games (10), Olympics, Dream Teams. He's been through it all."

Hampton Inn Virginia Beach-Oceanfront South, Norfolk
Great Stay
Perfect room! Had oceanfront view, bar/restaurant downstairs, and only a short walk from everything we needed. We would definitely stay here againď
Hampton Inn Virginia Beach-Oceanfront South, Norfolk
Afforded a relaxing view with a comfortable bed, and a friendly staff with an easy check-in--liked the variety of breakfast items while the on-site security contributed to a safe environment
Hampton Inn Virginia Beach-Oceanfront South, Norfolk
No complaints
The breakfast was great! The main hot items were different every day. The Tap House (restaurant downstairs) was great! You get a 15% discount if you stay at the hotel. The staff were friendly and accomadating. Whenever we ask for something they never said no.
Hampton Inn Virginia Beach-Oceanfront South, Norfolk
Not as expected
The Hampton Inn is usually a good place to stay but I wasn't very impressed with this one. When I arrived I was put in a room overlooking the roof and was moved to a higher floor. The new room heater wasn't working and maintenance had to come fix it. The free breakfast was not that good. Yes they had make you own waffles and the sausage was like rubber hockey pucks and the baby Spanish omelets were not fresh made and in a heated pan. This is not standard fare for the Hampton Inns I have stayed in before...very disappointing...

PAA Europe, 2016
Pacific Arts Association – Europe
PAA-E Annual Meeting – Norwich
Sunday 16 October – Tuesday 18 October 2016
Dear members and friends,
The 2016 annual meeting of PAA-Europe will be hosted by the Sainsbury Research Unit for the Arts of Africa, Oceania & the Americas, University of East Anglia in Norwich, United Kingdom. The meeting coincides with the exhibition: Fiji: Art and Life in the Pacific at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts (opening 15 October 2016), for which the Cambridge University Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology (MAA) is an exhibition partner. Accordingly, MAA have offered to host a visit to PAA-E delegates during which access to storage objects will be offered on Tuesday 18 October (please see below).
While there is no specific theme to the conference, the first conference day will focus on the Fiji exhibition. One of the highlights of this exhibition is a commissioned 8m-long double-hulled sailing canoe and papers related to Pacific canoes are particularly welcome. The following day will be allocated for general papers related to Pacific art.
For those wishing to present papers at the conference, there are two types of presentations: (a) a paper of 20 minutes followed by 5-10 minutes discussion, (b) a report of 10 minutes. There will be an opportunity to make short announcements at the AGM on Monday. Those who would like to present a paper or report are kindly requested to submit an abstract (200 words max. for a paper, 50 words max. for a report) by 30 June 2016 to Lisa Farrington or Lynne Crossland: email@example.com. Acceptance will be confirmed by 20 July 2016, thus allowing time for presenters to make their travel arrangements.
Information about accommodation in Norwich, at the university or in town, will be forwarded to all members in July 2016, and will be posted on the PAA website. For those travelling to Cambridge on dispersal day (Tuesday 18 October), there will be an additional fee to cover coach costs. Further details will be provided shortly. Meanwhile, if you have any questions concerning the programme, accommodation, or anything else that can be answered by the local organizers, please contact Lisa Farrington or Lynne Crossland at the Sainsbury Research Unit: firstname.lastname@example.com, +44(0)1603 592498.

I am trying to link a like box on website to facebook fan page.
I created an APP (developer.facebook.com), went to settings -> advanced -> add page to create a fan page for a band. Then I used this open graph like button (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/) to link page.
It is working on website, but when I click like, it creates a 3rd page, an insight page, with this message "This is the administration interface for your webpage at http://witheri.com. You can see Insights and publish to the users that have liked your webpage. Only the administrators of the webpage can view this interface, other users are sent to the webpage."
This is all fine, but I want the likes to appear on the fan page instead of the insight page. How can I fix this?

Schizophrenia Health Center
9 Schizophrenia Myths and Facts
In this article
There's a lot of incorrect info out there about schizophrenia. Some of it is spread by movies or TV shows. Or sometimes people use stereotypes when talking about this mental illness.
Get the real story behind some common myths.
Recommended Related to Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a chronic, disabling mental illnesscharacterized by a wide range of symptoms, including: abnormal thinking loss of contact with reality hallucinations It is strongly linked to an increased risk of suicideattempts and completed suicides. Among people diagnosed with schizophrenia, an estimated 20% to 40% attempt suicide. From 5% to 13% actually complete the act of suicide. Compared to the general population, people with schizophrenia have a more...
Read the Schizophrenia and Suicide article > >
Myth #1: It means you have multiple personalities.
This is one of the biggest misunderstandings about schizophrenia. One poll found that 64% of Americans believe the condition involves a split personality -- which means someone acts like they're two separate people.
A person with schizophrenia doesn't have two different personalities. Instead, he has false ideas or has lost touch with reality. Schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder are different and unrelated conditions.
Myth #2: Most people with schizophrenia are violent or dangerous.
In movies and TV shows, who is the crazed killer? Often it's the character with this condition. That's not the case in real life.
Even though people with schizophrenia can act unpredictably at times, most aren't violent, especially if they're getting treated.
When people with this brain disorder do commit violent acts, they usually have another condition, like childhood conduct problems or substance abuse.
Myth #3: Bad parenting is the cause.
Mothers, in particular, often get blamed.
But schizophrenia is a mental illness. It has many causes, including genes, trauma, and drug abuse. Mistakes you've made as a parent won't give your child this condition.
Myth #4: If your parent has schizophrenia, you'll get it too.
Genes do play a role. But just because one of your parents has this mental illness doesn't mean you're destined to get it.
If one parent has schizophrenia, your risk of getting the condition is about 10%. Having more than one family member with it raises your risk further.
Myth #5: People with schizophrenia aren't smart.
Some studies have that found people with the condition have more trouble on tests of mental function, including attention, learning, and memory. But that doesn't mean they're not intelligent.
Many creative and smart people throughout history have had schizophrenia, such as Russian ballet dancer Vaslav Nijinsky and Nobel Prize-winning mathematician John Nash. Scientists are even looking into links between genes that may be related to both psychosis and creativity.

I feel much safer.
Beating and terrifying a little disabled man, horrible. What are wrong with these people? Fire them, fire them now.
In Colorado, a sheriff's deputy attacked my friend, of whom has MS. He claimed he was walking like he was intoxicated. Well, of course he was. He has MS and told the officer so, several times, thankfully in front of many witnesses! Yes. I'd like a lot more of these dipshits fired for not having any common sense. That deputy cost the state's taxpayers over 100K in an out-of-court settlement.
In other news, man gets rich after idiot police violate his constitutional rights.
But let's put armed guards in every school. Then kids will be safer, just like Mr. Martinez.
I posted essentially the same comment on CNN
Worked for Columbine.
[Martinez was] detained for possible "obstruction of justice."
One cannot obstruct that which is not apparent to begin with.
Clearly, justice was in Martinez's head and his skull was obstructing access to it, so it was incumbent upon the officers to beat him to try to get justice.
Officers mistakenly thought he was involved in a domestic violence incident.
Well he's been involved in a violent incident NOW.
Just here to offer a prediction that none of the pigs involved in this will get fired.
Probably not, especially in that part of the county (I live in the city of San Diego) where that idiot congressman Darryl Issa comes from. I'm sure there will be a long line of teabagger types rallying to the deputy's defense.
sometimes i think we as a society should reassess who is really developmentally disabled, and stop giving them a badge.
Came to read this. Leaving satisfied.
"We made a mistake here."
Boy, that's only slightly better than "We take this issue very seriously."
Edit: Sorry. Not until I scrolled further down the postings did I realize they consulted with MurderFuck Industries.
It's cops like this that give the other 2% a bad name.
My mother-in-law works providing services to developmentally disabled people in our community and I can say this is not an uncommon incident. I have no experience or grasp of the proper terminology here so bear with me, but as I understand it, it is very common for mental disabilities to come with what we would view as physically agressive behavior; hitting, grabbing, biting, etc. She works hard to create training guidelines that have moved local institutions away from heavy restraint and physical remedies for outbursts, but this is fairly new to the field of care and varies from institution to institution.
If care givers who specialize in developmental disabled care are not well trained in the proper manner to handle these situations, you can imagine how far remove the police are from proper training. Incidents she has told me about involving police seems to follow this story closely; police arrive, can't employ the standard situational command and compliance they usually use, and resort to physical restraint. Just goes to show there should be less emphasis on military-style training for police and more on community care skills.
Yep. My brother has Down's, and while he is very social and amiable, he has a definite stubbornness that I'm sure would rankle the hell out of the compliance-demanding authoritymonger police-type. I mean, they're willing to taze the shit out of an incapacitated non-compliant kid with a broken neck on the side of the road, so what chance does someone who can say "No!" stand?
"To protect and serve" indeed.
…and (Martinez) didn't respond to commands.
Didn't respond to commands. You see, that's the thing. Whoever doesn't kneel before Zod within a minute, gets their skull cracked in, no questions asked.
I've heard these cops aggressively yell orders out of the blue, become agitated at the smallest perceived transgression, confuse and scare the shit out of people who haven't done anything "wrong", whatever that means. Take away the uniform, looks and sounds like an unstable individual on meth.
If your presence in a situation is supposed to bring things down a notch or three: YOU'RE! NOT! HELPING!!!
If your presence makes things worse, well what are you doing wearing that uniform?
while trying "to gain compliance and prevent a possible escape," he used pepper spray
Wait.. what? To gain compliance? He attacked an unarmed non-threatening man with chemical weapons because he didn't answer questions?
"The deputy began using a baton as an agitated crowd approached, the spokeswoman added. The deputy hit Antonio Martinez with it, forcing him to the ground, then levied "a couple more strikes to get his hands free," "Then he beat him with a club because he did not answer questions.It doesn't matter at that point if the victim had downs or not. Unresponsive suspects should be cuffed and taken in for questioning, not attacked and beaten.
This guy should not be fired, he should be brought up on criminal assault and battery charges. He should also be denied bail as he has demonstrated that he is a public danger.

West Loop Modern Urban RetreatUnited StatesIllinoisWest Loop/Greektown
About this listing
Explore all Chicago has to offer from this centrally located getaway located in the heart of the West Loop Fulton Market meat packing district!
Space where guests can cook their own meals
Towels, bed sheets, soap, and toilet paper
The Space
You will have your own private entrance in the back of the building with your very own parking space for those of you driving or renting a car.
The 3rd floor will be your own private living space that includes the bedroom, tv lounge area, office, wallk-in closet and private bathroom with a washer and dryer. All fresh linens, towels,
shampoo/conditioner & toothpaste are included with your stay. I also include a complimentary sampling of products for you to enjoy from my skin boutique that is separately located on the second floor in the front of the building.
Downstairs is the living room and dining area with access to the back porch with seating, tables and a grill to use at your leisure.
The kitchen is fully stocked with anything and all you might have in your very own kitchen. Unlimited coffee and snacks are yours for the taking.
Guest Access
You'll have access to basically everything.
Interaction with Guests
I enjoy meeting new guests and sharing experiences and places I frequent in this fabulous city, wether it be main attractions or off the beaten path hidden gems, I'll help you see it all. I also host along with my boyfriend Jeff a private room in our loft just located around the corner on Fulton Mkt Street so, we are always available to assist and help in any way. My experience with Airbnb has been top notch and the people I've met along with their experience traveling here always makes me truly appreciate this amazing city I live in!
The Neighborhood
I love my neighborhood! You'll see why when you stay here!
Getting Around
Location Location Location!!!
You couldn't stay at a more conveniently located place! Literally steps from the Green Line station. Three stops from the loop. Two stops from the METRO. Blocks away from the expressway. Cabs all the time It doesn't get any more accessible than this!
You will be staying right down the street from some of the best restaurants in town: NEXT, Roister, Aviary, La Sirena. Down the street from the Publican. And only 2 blocks away from Randolph Street eatery row: Girl and the Goat, Au Cheval, Black Bird etc. If you need groceries, Jewel, Whole Foods and Marianos close by.
If your coming into town for one of the many awesome festivals Chicago hosts you'll be in the right spot. A quick 8 block walk or one L station away from Union Park where Pitchfork and Northcoast Fests are held. 5 stations away (10 min) from Lollapalooza, Blues and Jazz Fest.
Other Things to Note
I have owned a small facial boutique in Chicago for 13 years. It is open 4 days a week with the opening hours between 10pm-8pm and is by appointment only. The boutique is a privately divided area on the 2nd floor with a separate private entrance. The kitchen is shared during business hours basically to fix lunch make an espresso or grab a cleaning supply. The vibe is very chill and cozy. I enjoy the communal setting where everyone is able to enjoy the space yet do their own thing. No one lives in the space so you will have complete privacy in the mornings, early afternoon and in the evenings. The bonus? You can book a facial or massage during your stay. True VIP hook up!
There will be a handful of requests. Take off shoes before going upstairs. Turn off the lights when you leave and when you retire at night. You know nothing out of the ordinary. The same things you probably do in your own home.
Your Host
Jeff And Jennifer
We know all the "spots" to eat, drink, see, shop and experience. And what better place to chill after a fun day than at the Loft. We might even make you a drink!

In the Global Gender Gap Report, Japan usually ranks around 100 out of 140 countries, says Mari Miura, a specialist on gender in Japan.

Blu-Ray Review: 'SG-U Stargate Universe: 1.0' Offers Lots of Conflict, Little AdventureSubmitted by mattmovieman on February 19, 2010 - 3:05pm
CHICAGO – Some franchises are best left undiscovered. "Stargate" originally began as a terrible 1994 film from B-movie maestro Roland Emmerich. It took a potentially interesting premise, and used it as an excuse for a lot of uninspired sci-fi warfare. The film, bad as it was, inexplicably spawned two long-running TV shows: "Stargate SG-1" and "Stargate: Atlantis."
DVD Round Up, Oct. 30, 2009: 'Sauna,' 'The Tournament,' 'The Butcher'Submitted by BrianTT on October 30, 2009 - 7:00am

This week seems a little more thematically linked as we have a trio of foreign horror films and a few more independent films than usual. Of course, there has to a holiday comedy to spice things up.

Law enforcement, education top issues in S.L. County mayor debate between Mark Crockett, Ben McAdams
Ravell Call, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — Sheriff Jim Winder's tirade last week against Mark Crockett followed the GOP candidate for Salt Lake County mayor to Monday's KSL NewsRadio debate.
Crockett and Democrat Ben McAdams were guests on "The Doug Wright Show" to debate top issues in the tightly contested race to succeed outgoing Mayor Peter Corroon.
Among the usual questions about transportation, air quality and property taxes was an inquiry about Crockett's media event last week at the county jail to discuss innovation and efficiency to save money in the criminal justice system.
Winder followed the Thursday event with a fiery impromptu news conference of his own a few hours later, denouncing ideas presented at Crockett's event as "misleading and dangerous."
Representatives from the RealVictory phone coach program were on hand at Crockett's event to talk about their model for preventing repeat offenses by those convicted of misdemeanors. RealVictory claims to have achieved a 54 percent reduction in recidivism, according to a BYU study.
In the debate, Crockett again asserted he's not sure why Winder is upset. The plan, he said, is to determine what new approaches can be taken with the already successful system.
"There are so many people who have so many things to offer with modern-day learning and technology," he said. "If we can do a better job of matching individuals with what is most likely to help them not come back to jail later, then that's good."
McAdams called Crockett's jail services news conference a "bizarre" moment in the race and echoed Winder's criticism of the RealVictory program. The Democrat said he doesn't believe the county should attempt to cut costs in law enforcement at the expense of public safety.
Crockett again said that he wasn't proposing the adoption of the RealVictory program but was presenting it as an available option for integrating technology into the criminal justice system.
The Republican expanded his stance on education in Monday's debate, which he had previously asserted is a state responsibility rather than a county issue.
Crockett repeated his earlier argument that the county can aid education by reining in spending in other areas to reduce competition for tax dollars, and he also echoed McAdams' position about the importance of preschool and after-school programs.
The Republican also proposed county recreation and community programs be tailored to help at-risk youths as a way to increase success in the classroom.
McAdams, who has long made education a cornerstone of his campaign, called it the No. 1 concern that has come up with voters in the election. He said Crockett had previously criticized his focus on education, but he was pleased to hear his opponent talk about the issue.
"That's something I have been talking about throughout this campaign," McAdams said. "The county spends less than $500,000 on all of our after-school programs. We leverage volunteer resources."
The candidates went back and forth on transportation, with McAdams promoting an increase in mass transit and championing popularity of FrontRunner and TRAX.
Crockett countered that roads and bus routes shouldn't be neglected in transportation concerns and advocated for focusing on the Mountain View Corridor for future transportation development.
In the discussion on transportation, the candidates squabbled over whether trains from the Daybreak area are running full or empty.
On questions about canyons, McAdams argued to keep decisions local and again denounced SkiLink, which would build a gondola system between the Canyons and Solitude resorts. The gondola would run through U.S. Forest Service lands.
Crockett made no direct mention of SkiLink but said trading small areas of public land near ski resorts for more backcountry land could benefit the county. He also advocated protecting the Bonneville Shoreline Trail from encroaching development.
