Historical Traveler Reviews BEST WESTERN Boracay Tropics Resort
A friendly hotel
the first thing i noticed when we were going through the formalities of what would be our 3-day stay at this hotel is its friendly staff and the laid-back atmosphere. the rooms were great, although the one we had didnot have a bath tub. if your idea of a vacation is to relax and just let time pass and enjoy every minute of it, then this is the place for you. although the breakfast buffet was not what i was used to, having been to other hotels that have wide varieties to offer on their menu that just suits a voracious glutton like me, it still made me feel like i was having a good old-fashioned home cooked meal. although i might try a beachfront hotel next time, i still think this hotel is a great one, and i can't over-emphasize how the friendly staff made our stay a memorable one... and a million thanks to my eternal friend...
This place is a winner!!
I loved our stay at Boracay Tropics. The place is magnificent, the rooms were great and clean, the breakfast buffet was superb!! The place is small, quiet and relaxing. It makes you want to stay inside the resort and enjoy the peace and tranquil surrounding.
However, if you are looking for a place that is closer to the beach then this is not it. It's a 3 minute walk to the beach and it is far away from the night-life. But, for me personally, it was all worth it.
Truly Remarkable!
We enjoy our stay in Boracay Tropics. It was truly a very nice hotel to stay. The location is just right. Few walks from the beachfront and far enough with the noise and too much people. A family resort as it is and a serene place to enjoy Boracay. The people are geniunely nice and friendly. The housekeeping and dining staff are commendable. We love the pool and the landscape. We will surely come back in this hotel. Truly an A+++ for us!!!
Our Bora Escapade!
Gosh! it was my first time in Boracay with my friends!! We are not that much excited talaga! ano ba naman na magising kami at around 2am! yes! 2am to catch the first flight..and then..Caticlan Airport na..We love sana to ride the trike..but, somebody approached us with a placard (my name on it!) welcoming us! meron pala kaming service! then..a banca! walang hanggang picture taking! and eto na..talagang di kami nagkamali to chose Boracay Tropics! na love at first sight kami..! we love them all..tama...first rate talaga ang inyong staff and crew..me sumama pala sa amin...si "CALOY" ! but, di namin sya pinansin..buti na lang maganda ang pool! kaya naglunoy ang aming mga beauty..the staff are so amazed to see our guts to wear those skimpy bikinis and two piece bathing suits! kesehodang naka sweater ang ibang guests...bakit? nasa Boracay kaya kami..kaya...feeling summer..kahit signal number 2!! i cant forget that talaga...babalik kami dyan...PROMISE!!
A whole new experience
Boracay Tropics (a whole new experience)
i did'nt tell my Girlfriend where we will be staying in Boracay, It was a surprise for her.
When we arrived in the jetty port from a tiring land trip from kalibo she saw our names written on a white board that was being carried by a man wearing a boracay tropics shirt. instantly she knew that we were staying at that hotel, but she did'nt know that hotel exist in Boracay. The guys immediately carried our bags all the way to their boat. I saw my girlfriend smiled. That was a sign of relief.
When we arrived at the hotel, We were amazed how beautiful the place was. (I have taken some pics) They have a swimming pool situated in the middle, they have a beautiful landscape. The pictures will speak for itself.
We had no problems with the staff, everyone was very accomodating and was always smiling.Thank you Boracay tropics for upgrading our room from standard to cabana. Thanks to the people in their manila office. Wow, was the very word my girlfriend said when we were taken to our room. I felt the same. The room was very clean and it was like a 5 star hotel room. I made the right choice, i said to myself. 5 star accomodation for a low price. We got the Barkada package, check their site [-]boracaytropics[-] for more details. I got there website in tripadvisor's forum.
Breakfast buffet was included in the package. The food was excellent. 200 pesos for non guests to avail of their breakfast buffet. We asked our friend to join us for breakfast, he had no regrets paying 200 bucks for the meal. it was sobrang sulit, he said. Included in the package was a dinner for 2. You have a choice from 3 set meals, we chose set B. Again it was perfect.
We even stayed another day not minding paying the extra day at their regular rate. Thats how we love the hotel. All in all our stay in Boracay tropics was the best. We have been to Boracay several times but this time we can say, was the best!
Relax in this Family Friendly Resort
I have been to Boracay several times with my young kids and stayed in diff. resorts. This time we tried the few month old Boracay Tropics and I was very happy. The rooms are spacious, nicely interiored and they are generous with the extra beds/breakfasts. My kids spent a lot of time in the nice pool. The resort is not at the beach front and has a perimeter wall and nicely landscaped garden surrounding the pool. These things make you feel relaxed and away from the hustle and bustle, perfect when you have kids. You'll feel safe having them run around and yet the beach is just afew minute away.
Perfect getaway for friends and families..not for lovers
My husband and i wanted to relax and leave the bustle and hustle of the city living so we decided to spend quality time in boracay (for the holy week trip)...The room was clean, but lacks facilities/toiletries like toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, shower cap, slippers, bath robe, do not disturb and make up room signages, and esp. blow dryer --can you believe that? i have visited most of the best and simplest resorts all over the world and even the simplest or a 3 star resort provides a hair dryer for each room (thats what the women need the most!!!)... anyways, the service provided by the man who picked us up from the airport and the restaurant staff at the boracay tropics were great (esp. cathy who has always been attentive and smiling and some of the guys staff --i dont know the names coz they didnt put on their name tags--sorry couldnt give you good compliments!!!--better put your nametags next time to get noticed and complimented when needed)...regarding the front desk staff/officer , we are not satisfied with their service...they are not really friendly, not accomodating,not approachable, not really courteous especially the ladies...they simply are not smiling..i also noticed that the front desk staff named eunice and divine, wouldnt even bother to smile as the customers walk in the lobby, arriving from a tiring walk to the beach ...i would rather recommend the restaurant staff to be assigned at the front desk (it seems like they know this job better than them) to set your clients moods and be more satisfied with the service...who would want to see a poker-faced during a holiday trip???
also, we were not quite satisfied with the breakfast buffet that they offered coz there are only few choices so we decided to eat out for lunch...But generally, the hotel was great,well kept coz its new (4 month old) although we encountered frequent black outs during our stay (blame it on the boracay current/electricity provider)...Though it's not a beachfront resort located in station 2, it was quite ok for us coz it would only take like 3-5 minute walk to get to the white beach..and close to the tourist center.
we just considered this as a warm up before dipping into the beach...I was expecting a real clear water of the beach but to my surprise, the water have too much green moss that you would even consider swimming in the pool rather than staying in the beach...maybe only for sunbathing, castle building, eating out, bar hopping and witnessing the sunset would be a great idea too...If you want to drink melon mango shake, i would recommend the jonahs shake located at station 1 for only p82 bucks,,..u can ride a tricycle for p40 per couple...
also the shenna's beachfront restaurant for their sumptous freshly grilled dishes---squid, lapulapu, red snapper, tanigue, liempo and most especially the live crab cooked in butter garlic sauce for only p300-400 per piece, it will truly satisfy your cravings!!! and make sure to look for john (waiter) who would provide you with the best and quick service so we gave him a big tip!!!..as we walk along the beach, we noticed the busiest and noisiest place ive seen and thats the boracay regency where they play live band and offers buffet dinner for only p450...we were curious so we decided to try on their meal but were truly disappointed coz we dint get a seat right away and the waiters were not really attentive...if you dont yell at them, they wouldnt mind you...in fact, we didnt like the food, my husband and i
spent p1300 and it wasnt worth it!!!
so the next evening, we headed back to shennas resort/restaurant where we truly enjoyed the food and hospitality of the
staff/waiters and got to spend only less than p1k for a sumptous crab, grilled squid, lapu lapu,fresh buko and 2 mango shakes..
i would truly go back to boracay with my other friends and family!!!
Loved Boracay Tropics
I really liked our stay at the Boracay Tropics Resort. The resort is very clean (2 months old). The staff was great. It's a 3-minute walk to the beach, which didn't bother me. Oh ya, and the complimentary breakfast was very good. I definitely recommend this resort.

Stoning is a medieval punishment that has no place in the modern world and the continued use of such a punishment in Iran demonstrates in our view a blatant disregard for human rights commitments which it has previously entered into," Foreign Secretary William Hague told a news conference.
The U.S. State Department said it was deeply troubled by reports of the proposed stoning execution, which it called "a form of legalized death by torture."
Human rights group Amnesty International said last week it feared that Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, who has two children, could be executed by stoning at any time for adultery.
Hague called on Iran to put an immediate stay on the execution and review the process by which Mohammadi Ashtiani was tried.
U.S. State Department spokesman Mark Toner called on Iran to end the practice of stoning, which he said violated United Nations covenants on basic human rights.

Don't worry. The article you are about to read has nothing to do with what you should or shouldn't put on your Thanksgiving dinner plate. There's nothing worse than having your hopes for the perfect holiday meal dashed by someone telling you that you might want to think twice before choosing this or that side dish.
No, this article is about the undeniable health benefits of thanksgiving — that is, the conscious expression of gratitude — itself.
Gratitude is extolled by every religion on earth as an essential virtue. Cicero, the renowned Roman orator, called it "not only the greatest of the virtues but the parent of all others." Only recently, however, have medical researchers begun delving into the impact gratitude has on our mental and physical health.

You get a 2.5 multiplier after you've caught 600 Pokemon in a game, and all captures are independent of each other, therefore you will always have the added 2.5 multiplier on every capture. It is improbable, but not impossible. commented Oct 24, 2013 by fondant But didn't he ask if you could get a 100% chance of getting a Critical capture? commented Oct 25, 2013 by Lappos Yes he did. And yes, you can. It's just incredibly unlikely. You can get one Critical Capture after another, so the chances of getting a Critical Capture on a Pokemon are not dependent on how many Critical Captures you've already received.

By JILL ABRAMSON
Published: October 26, 1998
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25— State Representative David Phelps, who is running for Congress in Southern Illinois, was not surprised when television stations began broadcasting an advertisement criticizing his record earlier this month. A Democrat, Mr. Phelps was prepared for things to get nasty in his race against Brent Winters, the Republican candidate, for an open seat in the 19th Congressional District.
But it was not Mr. Winters who sponsored the attack advertisement, which pictures Mr. Phelps and criticizes his votes on property and income taxes in the State Legislature. It was the Republican National Committee, which has taken advantage of election rules that allow the national parties to spend unrestricted funds on advertisements about issues, as long as the advertisements do not urge the election or defeat of specific candidates.
The Democrats used the tactic effectively in the 1996 Presidential campaign, and some prominent Republicans have urged the Justice Department to seek an independent counsel investigation of whether President Clinton scripted the plan to evade spending limits on his re-election campaign.
But at the same time the Republicans, flush with what is known as ''soft money,'' which can be used on issue advertisements, are expanding the practice and spending far more than their opponents. Republican House leaders, in fact, have designed the most ambitious party advertising plan in any non-Presidential election year.
The plan, ''Operation Breakout,'' calls for spending $20 million by Election Day, with $7 million already spent in 60 Congressional districts in 30 states.
To subsidize their advertising campaign, Republican House leaders have resorted to pressure tactics, assigning incumbents fund-raising quotas and using House leaders to lean on their colleagues for contributions.
Mr. Phelps, one of the targets of the Republicans, questioned how an advertisement targeting his record in the State Legislature qualified as a national Republican issue advertisement.
''I don't see what this has to do with the national Republican Party,'' Mr. Phelps said in an interview. ''When they use the candidate's name and talk about my record as a state representative, that has nothing to do with the issues I'll be voting on in Congress.''
The chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, Representative John Linder, said issue advertising is necessary and legal, especially in light of the millions spent by the A.F.L.-C.I.O. on advertisements attacking Republican House candidates two years ago.
''We watched the unions and the Sierra Club spend millions on issue ads,'' Mr. Linder, a Republican from Georgia, said in an interview. ''We have every right as a political party to tell America what we believe. And that has been affirmed by the Supreme Court five times.''
Mr. Linder also said that part of getting the party's message out is providing information about the records of Democratic opponents like Mr. Phelps.
In addition to the $20 million to be spent on House candidates, the National Republican Senatorial Committee is spending at least $6 million on issue advertisements in states with closely contested Senate races, including North Carolina, South Carolina, Nevada, Kentucky and Wisconsin.
To maximize the use of the unrestricted donations raised by political parties from corporations, individuals and interest groups, Republican Party committees in Washington have transferred millions of dollars to state party organizations to pay for issue advertising.
The Democrats have their own campaign. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee plan to spend at least $6 million each on issue advertisements and have transferred millions in soft money to state Democratic parties.
Mr. Linder is following the lead of the Democratic Party's 1996 Presidential campaign, in which President Clinton and the Democratic National Committee pushed issue advertising to the limit.
Following the Example of Ideological Groups
Unable to afford the multimillion-dollar advertising program proposed by Dick Morris, a consultant to the President, leaders of the re-election campaign instead approved a plan in which issue advertisements were paid for by the national committee with a heavy portion of soft money.
That plan took advantage of a 1995 advisory opinion from the Federal Election Commission that said political parties could sponsor the same kind of issue advertisements that ideological interest groups had been running.
The commission also said that the parties could use unrestricted donations from individuals, corporations and labor unions to pay for the advertisements with a blend of the restricted money, known as hard money.
The President helped script the Democratic Party's $44 million blitz of issue advertisements, which featured him prominently.
Lawyers for the Clinton-Gore campaign and the Democratic National Committee said the advertisements were legal and that they did not explicitly seek votes for the Clinton-Gore ticket.
But the 1996 Democratic advertising plan has attracted renewed scrutiny.

Selecting for extinction: nonrandom disease-associated extinction homogenizes amphibian biotas
*E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Studying the patterns in which local extinctions occur is critical to understanding how extinctions affect biodiversity at local, regional and global spatial scales. To understand the importance of patterns of extinction at a regional spatial scale, we use data from extirpations associated with a widespread pathogenic agent of amphibian decline, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) as a model system. We apply novel null model analyses to these data to determine whether recent extirpations associated with Bd have resulted in selective extinction and homogenization of diverse tropical American amphibian biotas. We find that Bd-associated extinctions in this region were nonrandom and disproportionately, but not exclusively, affected low-occupancy and endemic species, resulting in homogenization of the remnant amphibian fauna. The pattern of extirpations also resulted in phylogenetic homogenization at the family level and ecological homogenization of reproductive mode and habitat association. Additionally, many more species were extirpated from the region than would be expected if extirpations occurred randomly. Our results indicate that amphibian declines in this region are an extinction filter, reducing regional amphibian biodiversity to highly similar relict assemblages and ultimately causing amplified biodiversity loss at regional and global scales.

yea sundevil thats not even close to a realistic ranking of WR talent in this draft. Wright at 9? That's comical at best. Dude has a good shot at being the best WR in this draft when its all said and done.
You dont even have Jefferey ranked in the top ten. I understand hes the guy the webzone loves to hate on, hes the fat kid in gym class, I get it, and i personally wouldnt take him in the first, but if he was available in the second i would run to the podium to take him. Im hoping exactly just that happens because of people devaluing his talent due to appearance and combine #s.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Jul 01st, 2000
Running Time: 112
Director: Philmore Butts
Company: Philmore Butts Entertainment
Cast: Candy Roxx, Jeanie Rivers, Mickey Ray, Brandy (I), Philmore Butts, Alexandra Quinn, Bunny Luv, The Masked Man
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: All-Sex
A solid, competent wall-to-waller that should satisfy any porn fan.
Candy Roxx is as solid as ever, and Bunny Luv puts out a good scene, too, but this tape belongs to the deranged sexual energy of Alexandra Quinn. She blasts Philmore like a cannon. Very strong oral skills. Bunny Luv seems almost contemptuous of her partner, and she shoves him off her to take a bathroom break in the middle of the scene. Of course, we have to watch her pee, but there's plenty of people who will like that, and plenty that will like her bad attitude.

Konkani 'Tiatr'
originated in Bombay - by Flaviano Dias
a popular stage art form of the Goan Catholic masses, is facing a challenge
in its centuary year. Like other stage art forms, tiatr was looked down
by the elite and the middle class Goans in Bombay, where it originated
in the last centuary. However tiatr survived on the patronage of
Goan working people in Bombay, Pune and far away Karachi (which was part
of the Bombay province then). The theatre movement got a new direction
when the British residents of Bombay set up a play house at Grant Road
(locally known as PILA HOUSE and now falls in the red-light area and mostly
stages Marathi Tamashas). Here Parsi and Marathi dramas were also
being staged. Later Royal Opera House was constructed in Girgaum
Thanks for the arrangements: Gaspar Almeida


text: We are visiting friends in Petaluma, CA next month, staying for just over a week. Last time we went we stuck to eating fish and veggie (which we have no problem with) but they would really like to make a meat meal for us one night. Does anyone know where we might procure a kosher chicken or turkey in that area? We fly in to San Francisco late on 25th December, so I don't expect anything will be open, but we will be driving back into the city at some point, or we could go up to Santa Rosa if there is anything there.

Spanish Planned Nuclear Power Plant Shutdowns for 2012
Following is a table of shutdowns at nuclear power plants in Spain for 2012, according to data from Madrid-based utilities lobby Unesa.
Six of the nation's eight reactors were operating today, according to the website of Consejo de Seguridad Nuclear, the country's nuclear regulator. Almaraz II and Trillo are halted for planned maintenance. Spain produces about 20 percent of its electricity from atomic energy.
The table lists halts for plants owned by Endesa SA, Iberdrola SA, Gas Natural SDG SA and Nucleanor SA. No halts are planned this year for the 1,092-megawatt Cofrentes, the 1,027-megawatt Asco-2 or the 466-megawatt Santa Maria de Garona reactors, Unesa said.
An asterisk highlights a change from the last version of the table.
Unit Name Megawatts Out Return ---------------------------------------------------------------- Almaraz-2 1,045 May 7 June 13 Trillo 1,066 May 19 *June 15 Vandellos II 1,087 May 26 July 9 Asco 1 1,033 Oct. 27 Dec. 10 Almaraz-1 1,035 Nov. 4 Dec. 17

Feeling let downAugust 05,2014
Feeling let down
The following is from a letter to Sen. Leahys senior foreign policy analyst:
I have been completely baffled, no, the right word is horrified, by the U.S. governments complicity in the massacre taking place in Gaza. ... I was part of a womens peace delegation to Gaza this spring. We were detained and deported from Cairo. Our baby clothes and solar lanterns never made it to the Gazan women. I carried a letter of support from Senator Leahy for that mission. How can he have approved of this invasion by Israel? Has he made any statement condemning Israels actions? Surely, I must have missed it.
It looks like the strategy for Israel is to kill as many civilians as possible to crush the people of Gaza, not just their elected Hamas government. U.N. schools, hospitals, apartment buildings, mosques and churches where people are seeking shelter have been fired upon, killing over 1,000 people now. Water treatment plants and power stations have been blown up.
To me, it is beyond belief that anyone, most especially my Vermont congresspeople, are turning a blind eye to the realities becoming clearer and clearer with each bomb dropped, with each child killed. I feel I no longer have anyone I can vote for. I feel I no longer have a country I believe in. Please tell me I have missed something here.

Company: VCA Xplicit

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Couples who are tired of Playboy tapes, but not quite ready for Max Hardcore.
Within a framework made up of interstitials of images of silhouetted dancers, Alex Sanders offers five well-shot scenes (plus an impromptu quickie where one of the performers comes out from behind the scrim and blows the cameraman) that are couples-friendly without being tepid.
The creativity flags after a while (the first couple of blowjobs-in-silhouette were kind of cool, but after that....) but the sex maintains heat throughout. Condoms and well-aimed pop shots maintain couples-friendly atmosphere.

47 Republican Senators Want To Block The EPA's Clean Water Rule
CREDIT: AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta
Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA), along with 46 of her Republican colleagues, introduced a joint resolution Thursday "disapproving" of the Environmental Protection Agency's Waters of the United States rule, a recently-added addition to the Clean Water Act that clarifies the EPA's jurisdiction over some streams and wetlands.
The rule has been criticized as EPA overreach that will hurt business and has been subject to several lawsuits, from states as well as business groups, and legislation seeking to nullify it.
"Hardworking Iowans don't need more Washington bureaucrats from the EPA telling our job creators how best to use their land," Ernst said in a statement on the resolution, which seeks to block the rule.
The rule, developed with the Army Corps of Engineers using what a White House spokesman called "the best science available" to determine how waterways are connected, protects two million miles of streams and 20 million acres of wetlands that the Clean Water Act did not clearly cover before. The EPA estimates that a third of Americans get their drinking water from sources connected to the added waterways.
A bill in the Senate already seeks to nullify the rule. That bill, introduced by Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY), passed the Senate Environment and Public Works committee in June in an 11-9 vote split cleanly along party lines, with only Republicans supporting it. President Obama has said he would veto any legislation stopping the rule.
At the moment, the rule has already been stopped in 13 states, after a judge in North Dakota issued a temporary injunction at the state's request. Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, South Dakota, and Wyoming were also party to the suit, which seeks to have the rule overturned.
"This ill-conceived rule ignores the thoughtful comments and serious concerns raised by farmers, ranchers, manufacturers, and small businesses across the county," Ernst said. "Furthermore, its expanded definition causes confusion, uncertainty and unnecessary red tape. Simply put, this one size fits all method is the wrong approach that puts our agriculture community at a disadvantage."
EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy has repeatedly said the new rule will not affect the "normal farming operations" that are already exempt from the Clean Water Act. Furthermore, there will be no new requirements for agriculture or forestry, industries which will retain "all the decades long exemptions" they currently enjoy, she told reporters in May, when the rule was finalized.
While farmers and some business groups worry the rule will interfere with business, others — including a group of breweries that say their business depends on clean water — have applauded the rule. A National Wildlife Federation poll found that outdoor enthusiasts in Pennsylvania overwhelmingly support the tenets of WOTUS.
"It would be hard to find a more conservative group than the hunters and anglers we polled," Lori Weigel, a partner at the Republican polling firm Public Opinion Strategies, told The Morning Call. "And yet their support of this policy is broad‐based and widespread, cutting across partisan and ideological divisions."

What is the treatment for ringworm? Are there home remedies for ringworm?
Home remedies cannot cure ringworm. To cure ringworm, it is necessary to take antifungal medications. Ringworm can be treated topically (with external applications) or systemically (for example, with oral medications):
Topical treatment: When fungus affects the skin of the body or the groin, many antifungal creams can clear the condition in around two weeks. Examples of such preparations include those that contain clotrimazole (Cruex cream, Desenex cream, Lotrimin cream, lotion, and solution), miconazole (Monistat-Derm cream), ketoconazole (Nizoral cream), econazole (Spectazole), naftifine (Naftin), and terbinafine (Lamisil cream and solution). These treatments are effective for many cases of foot fungus as well. Many of these antifungal creams are available as over-the-counter preparations. It is usually necessary to use topical medications for at least two weeks. More recently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the antifungal medication luliconazole (Luzu), the first topical azole antifungal agent with a one-week once-daily treatment regimen for the management of tinea cruris and tinea corporis in adults aged 18 years or older.
Learn more about: Monistat-Derm | Nizoral | Spectazole | Lamisil
Systemic treatment: Some fungal infections do not respond well to external applications. Examples include scalp fungus and fungus of the nails. To penetrate these areas and for particularly severe or extensive disease, oral medications can be used.
For a long time, the only effective antifungal tablet was griseofulvin (Fulvicin, Grifulvin, and Gris-PEG). Now, other agents are available that are both safer and more effective. These include terbinafine, itraconazole (Sporanox), and fluconazole (Diflucan). Oral medications are usually given for a three-month course. Continue Reading

Baja mar sunset by peterpatemanWatch
©2012-2016 peterpateman
The word 'Bahamas' is said to originate from the spanish 'baja' and 'mar', meaning short seas. It is these shallow seas that give the variations of blue that make it so beautiful, also there are no silty rivers to ruin the clarity of the waters. Ron Garan the astronaut has said "The Bahamas are definitely on the list of top ten most photogenic places on Earth. It was one of my favorite areas to photograph from space."

Ever since I can remember I have hated brussel sprouts. I remember my mom serving them from time to time, and I always had to eat at least one. And one was always about 15 too many for me.
Anyway, I cannot ever remember voluntarily eating a brussel sprout. As an adult I have never tossed any fresh frozen brussel sprouts in my grocery cart or even tried them at a potluck. I apologize to those of you who love brussel sprouts, but they are just not for me.

Do you ever really look forward to something only to have it disappoint you? For instance, I love going to the movies, but sometimes the movie doesn't match my expectations.
Gov. Matt Bevin, along with Kentucky commissioner of agriculture Ryan Quarles, proclaimed May as Beef Month in Kentucky, citing beef's nutritional benefits and its impact on Kentucky's economy. They were joined by Kentucky Beef Council chairman Steve Dunning, Beef Council president David Lemaster, Kentucky Cattlemen's Association executive vice president Dave Maples, Kentucky Beef Council director of consumer affairs Kiah Twisselman, and the Governor's Office of Agriculture Policy executive director Warren Beeler.
Usually we associate hard work with sweat on the brow and perhaps aching muscles, and there is certainly a lot of that to be done. There are houses to be built, crops to be planted and harvested, there are roads to be repaired, cars to be built - you know what I mean.
There are other people that work hard every day who never break a sweat. They work in offices or in stores; they sell insurance or help us buy houses. Some of these folks work long hours in front of a computer screen or talking on the phone or, well, maybe even teaching in our local schools.
One of my favorite movies is the Wizard of Oz. I remember watching on a black and white TV (Do they even make those anymore?). I never realized until years later that Oz was in color.And the horse of a different color really does change colors.

Rated 3 out of 5�by Cali68 Inaccurate color I can't really say much about how efficient of durable this swim cap is because I ended up returning it. I had decided to buy this cap based on the color shown in the computer screen (electric blue). Big was my disappointed when the cap arrived and it turned out to be an ugly navy blue. I bought this cap for my 5-year-old daughter and I didn't think the color was suitable for a little girl. So I returned it and ended up buying a cap on a different brand. April 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by joycer My daughter loves her new swim caps. Ordered six different colors for my daughter who is swimming in the winter. She loves the colors and they aren't ripping as she is putting them on. I enjoy the colors so I can find her in a sea of swimmers. January 31, 2014

Software development projects are notorious for cost overruns and schedule delays. While dozens of software cost models have been proposed, few of them seem to have any degree of consistent accuracy. One major factor contributing to this persistent and widespread problem is an inadequate understanding of the real behavior of software development processes. We believe that software development could be studied as an economic production process and that established economic theories and methods could be used to develop and validate software production and cost models. We present the results of evaluating four alternative software production models using the P-test, a statistical procedure developed specifically for testing the truth of a hypothesis in the presence of alternatives in econometric studies. We found that the truth of the widely used Cobb-Douglas type of software production and cost models (e.g., COCOMO) cannot be maintained in the presence of quadratic or translog models. Overall, the quadratic software production function is shown to be the most plausible model for representing software production processes. Limitations of this study and future directions are also discussed.

Neither am I, but I'm having to deal with a lot of time and space recently.
Tell me about it. Seems like I've been dealing with time and space forever. No matter where I go, all hours of the day, it's time and space! Even on the weekends, time and space! I just can't get away from it.
If NASA times it just right, we could put people on the moon, launch the moon at Mars and have people walking on Mars just months later.
Next, we use the tide from the sun to travel to Alpha Centauri.
Wait, are you suggesting that we ride the sun to Alpha Centauri, or put kites in the tides on the sun caused by Earth and launch Earth toward Alpha Centauri?
The recent joke, however, will never be novel or funny again.
This fails to explain running gags. Even regular jokes are, in fact, often funny again (even if no longer novel).
No, I'm not saying every system would die within two weeks without maintenance, but enough of them would that it would create som real freaggin' huge problems! Not to mention the user's need to be led by the hand through the nigh unfathomable maze that is finding files you've saved, finding the right icon to click to launch the application you use every day, sending e-mail, etc.
It occurs to me that this points to most IT systems (particularly interfaces) being poorly designed.
Over the past 10 months, five feet have been found on shorelines along the Strait of Georgia, southwest of Vancouver.
... Four of the feet are right feet. The fifth is a left foot. ... There are more than 2,000 people missing in British Columbia alone, says Ebbesmeyer, so there's a good likelihood that they come from one of them.
One of the missing people had 4 right feet and a left foot? And I thought I was bad at dancing...

I'm wanting to create a function that shows only recently updated links in a links list. I'm rooting through the code and it looks like the code that decides this would be in links.php in the get_links function. I'm wondering how I should modify the SQL query to grab only links with a recently updated list within the prescribed interval.
Here's the SQL query code from get_links
$sql = "SELECT link_url, link_name, link_image, link_target,
link_description, link_rating, link_rel $length $recently_updated_test $get_updated
FROM $wpdb->links
WHERE link_visible = 'Y' " .
$sql .= ' ORDER BY ' . $orderby;
$sql .= $direction;
/* The next 2 lines implement LIMIT TO processing */
if ($limit != -1)
$sql .= " LIMIT $limit";
What would I add to the WHERE spec that would limit things to the interval up updated-ness?
If that is too involved - how could I root out the non-recently updated links once the list is made? To somehow run a command on $results to remove all links in the array that don't have recently_updated set to true?

text: When an ionic solid is added into a solvent, you can see that the ionic solid dissociates into its respective cations and anions. The solvent molecules immediately cluster around the ions. This is known as solvation. When the solvent is water, the solvation process is called hydration. Dissolution and hydration occur simultaneously, and salt is said to be dissolved in water. You can observe that some of the ions dissolved in the solution recrystallize or deposit to form the solid salt. When the rate of dissolution equals the rate of deposition, dynamic equilibrium is reached rank from the first step to the last step. To rank the steps that occur simultaneously, overlap them. hydration of anions dissolution of salt into its cations and anions hydration of cations rate of dissolution is equal to the rate of deposition hydrated cations and anions begin to deposit as a salt

Update — confirmed working! New tags up through 6/11.
So this is running in Sunday ad markets — usually we get the same price drops and instants here, so let me know if this works for you tomorrow in a Thursday ad store. 🙂 I know the Catalina was working here, at least.
- Buy four 50 ct Ziploc sandwich bags at $1.99 each (price drop through 6/8) = $7.96.
- Get $2 instant savings for buying three = $5.96.
- Use two $1.00/2 Ziploc printables (or $.75/2 in the 5/11 SS) = $3.96.
- Stack with two $1.00/2 Target Ziploc coupons here = $1.96.
- Get back $2.00 OYNO for a net cost of… you made $.04.
Well, OK, not after tax, but still a pretty darn good deal, dontcha think? The Ziploc Catalina runs through 6/15: Buy three, get $1.50 OYNO. Buy four or more, get $2.00 OYNO. You can also do the deal with storage or freezer bags, which are regularly priced at $2.59 each, to get those cheap after instant + coupons + Catalina.
(Thanks, Meijer Madness)

The Bells
by Edgar Allan Poe
The Bells Fear Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Line)
Quote #4
How we shiver with affright (line 74)
Sometimes a little word makes all the difference. In this case, it's the word "we." This is the only time the speaker uses this word in the whole poem. It's the only moment where he includes us, his readers, in the story he's telling. The effect is subtle, but chilling. All of a sudden we can imagine ourselves lying in bed, shivering with fear. Maybe it makes you think of those moments when you sat up and listened for things going bump in the night.
Quote #5
Feel a glory in so rolling
On the human heart a stone-- (line 84-85)
We really like this image as a way of describing the effects of fear. We can feel the weight of that stone rolling over our hearts, creating a crushing heaviness in our chests. The creepiest thing about this is that the ghouls who are spreading this fear seem to enjoy it. What's scary and awful for us is just a good time for the ghouls. It's a classic Poe moment. The sickness of fear mixes with the thrill of horror – after all, there must be a reason we keep reading poems and stories about scary things.
