I stumbled across this magical paradise on an elopement website. Im so glad I saw it. I had just become engaged and my fiance and I knew we wanted to have a private ceremony. We just needed to find the perfect place. The Post Ranch Inn was the place!!
I will say, without a doubt, that this is my new favorite place! I will go to any lengths to get to this place again! It was THAT amazing!! We stayed 4 nights. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty. The staff is great. I can't say enough good things about how wonderful they were to us.
The moment we arrived, we were escorted to "check-in", where they offered us a beverage (water, champagne, coffee), while they checked us in. We were getting married the next day, so everyone congratulated us. (They offer a BEAUTIFUL Elopement Package!) Then they transferred our luggage to one of their on-site Lexus to take us to our room. On the way, we got a tour of the property. I want to mention that this place has something really special about it. The second you are on the property, you just feel all your troubles slip away. You feel peaceful and very, very relaxed. Anyone who has been there, knows what I'm talking about!!)
The room we stayed in was called Fredericks!! It is one of the less expensive rooms (they are all expensive), but still a slice of heaven. Very private. Very romantic. Beautiful views of the forest and mountains. Fireplace. Beautiful bathroom. Beatiful decor. The fridge in the room is full and its gratis. Cheese, crackers, chips, nuts and all different beverages. They refill your fridge everyday. This place can be at full capacity (there are 39 guestrooms), and you still feel like nobody is around. Very quiet, very private. Adults only at Post Ranch Inn. We got to our room and there was sparkling cider on ice (we dont drink) and beautiful centerpiece of flowers with a card from the hotel congratulating us on our upcoming nuptials (the next day). Such a nice touch.
We got married on Halloween, by the resorts resident interfaith wedding coordinator. She is a whole different review. I could go on and on about her. Her name is Soaring Starkey and we had the privilege of getting to know her for the past year while she put together the most beautiful ceremony for us. She also took care of details; flowers, photographer. She handled everything for us. In short, our wedding day was PERFECT. The best day of our lives!!!
The restaurant on the property is fabulous. After we were married, we had dinner at the Sierra Mar (also a whole different review), at sunset and the food and service were amazing...and thats an understatement. Its expensive, but it was worth it. We only ate there one night because we wanted to explore other restaurants in the Big Sur area during our honeymoon. The continental breakfast at Sierra Mar for hotel guests each morning is extraordinary!!!
The hotel has Lexus cars available for guests to use if they would like to explore off the property. All we had to do is to call concierge and they would have a car waiting for us!!
The views are some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. They have a Spa on site, and an infinity pool and infinity soaking tub overlooking the ocean.
There are deer and wild turkey just roaming the property. We were lucky enough to be able to see these animals a few times. Fabulous hiking trails. Wonderful garden (where they grow food that they use at Sierra Mar). Everytime a staff member saw us, they stopped to ask how we were doing. They would ask if there was anything they could get us. It was just amazing. Really great service!
The morning we were leaving, I really wanted to cry. I did NOT want to leave. We loved it so much, that when we checked-out, we made a reservation for our anniversary next year!!
I researched this place for months. I read ALL the reviews on tripadvisor (and many other sites) about Post Ranch Inn. I can't figure out how anybody could give this place anything less than 5 stars. I dont understand that!! I would recommend this little slice of heaven to anybody. For a wedding, anniversary, romantic getaway or just because you want to get away from reality and relax. I did the research, I stayed there for 4 days and it was the best time of our lives!!
Now,,,,the cost. It IS expensive. Unless you are wealthy or a celebrity, this is not cheap.Your bank account WILL feel it when you check-out. But Im saying, without any kind of exaggeration, that it is worth every single penny!!! Go check it out. You wont be sorry!!!!!

Rudi Koerzten is a modern umpire in the traditional mould, with an image that is a curious blend of old and new - his flat white cap is offset by a pair of wraparound shades that rarely leave his face except in the poorest of conditions, while his trademark is a dalek-like, super slow (and getting slower) raise of the fatal finger to exterminate a batsman's innings.
A lifelong fan of the game, Koerzten played league cricket while working as a clerk on the South African railways, but soon turned his hand to umpiring in 1981. He first stood in a Test at the age of 43, at Port Elizabeth in 1992-93, the first series in which TV replays were used to judge run-out decisions. Appointed as a full-time ICC umpire in 1997 - and a member of the elite panel in 2002 - he leaves little to chance by putting in regular sessions in the gym, as well as long hours in front of the TV studying the techniques - and previous dismissals - of the batsmen at his mercy.
In September 1999, he was praised for his swift refusal of a bribe prior to the Coca-Cola Cup final between West Indies and India in Singapore, and four months later he was once again at the sharp end of the match-fixing crisis, when he stood in the now-infamous Centurion Test between South Africa and England. In April 2007 he stood in the World Cup final in Barbados, but the farcical finale of that match - and his role in misinterpreting the rules regarding bad light - led to his suspension for the Twenty20 World Championships in September.
Koerzten is not immune to the pressures of the job, and in 2000-01 his errors contributed to one of the most fractious matches of modern times, the second Test between Sri Lanka and England at Kandy. Nevertheless, he retains the respect of the players, and an enthusiasm that enables him to spend more than 240 days of the year away from his wife and four children. In 2007 he broke David Shepherd's record of standing in 172 ODIs.

More tips on iTunes 4.5
Jim Heid, author of "The Macintosh iLife" has published more tips for iTunes 4.5 on his website. Here's one of his tips on iMix, the ability to share your own playlist in iTunes.
Pepsi's iTunes promo shows weak results
"Apple Computer said Wednesday that about 5 million free songs have been given away through a Pepsi promotion, far fewer than the 100 million tracks that could have been redeemed.
An Apple representative said the music giveaway was probably the biggest ever of its kind but admitted that the company gave away fewer songs than it had intended.
'We had hoped the redemptions would have been higher,' said Katie Cotton, Apple's vice president of worldwide corporate communications. Customers with winning bottle caps have until Friday to redeem their free music tracks."
Apple disables iTunes song-swapping tool
"Among other additions Apple Computer made to its iTunes software, the Mac maker has plugged a hole that allowed some people to download music from another computer.
Apple's iTunes allows Macintosh and PC users to play music stored on other PCs on a network. The music is streamed off the other computer. But file-swapping enthusiasts quickly created other programs, such as MyTunes, to capture the songs and allow them to be saved to the computer's hard drive. With the latest iteration
iTunes 4.5 cripples DRM-stripping apps
"According to a handful of very preliminary reports, it appears that new Mac OS X code, which is included as part of the iTunes 4.5 installer, cripples the vast majority of DRM-removing applications that have surfaced in recent weeks.
"I just downloaded the freebie song from iTunes, by the Foo Fighters, and when I tried to pass it through iMovie or FairTunes, I received an error message stating that my computer was not authorized to play the song," one iTunes user said."
inMotion Adapter for iPod mini now available
Altec Lansing has released the inMotion Adapter for iPod mini for inMotion speakers. "Allows the iPod mini to securely dock in the inMotion
iTunes turns small profit, video iPod denied
"Apple Computer Inc.'s online music store, iTunes, recorded a small profit in the current quarter, according to Chief Executive Steve Jobs (news - web sites).
ITunes is now selling 2.7 million songs a week, or a rate of 140 million songs a year. The company boasts a market share of more than 70 percent in legal online music.
The Cupertino, Calif., company will resist adding video capabilities to its iPod music player.
"It's the music, stupid," Jobs said, adding that listening to music can be done in combination with another activity else, while video is a "foreground" activity."
Steve Jobs iTunes conference call coverage
Head to MacMinute.com for live coverage of the iTunes Music Store anniversary conference call. There is an extensive list of news briefs from the call.
Some highlights courtesy of MacMinute:
- Jobs: The iTMS had a small profit this past quarter—0-70 million in one year is a good figure.
- Jobs: Music is background activity—movies are foreground activity—music is the revolution here.
- Jobs: we have to stay focused on the fact that people are buying iPods for music.
- Jobs: (joking): next big step is we want iPod to make toast. Toying with refrigeration, too.
- Jobs: upward trend in iPod sales—Apple is the only company in world offers unbeatable combo of iPod, iTunes and iTunes Music Store.
- Jobs: subscription services not succeeding—$1 to listen to a song for the rest of your life. People want to own music, not rent it—you own it… subscriptions make you pay over and over.
- HP expects to ship 8 million copies of iTunes on their desktops this year.
- Labels never asked for iTMS downloads to play on any other device besides iPod, says Jobs.
- Price is remaining 99 cents per song
- "Gonna help us a lot in the Windows market," says Jobs. (WMA to AAC converter)
- Jobs: "Largest online catalog in the world. "Number one online music service in the world," so "exceeded our wildest expectations"

iTunes gaining ground over file sharing
"The number of U.S. music fans downloading music online increased by 27 percent between November 2003 and March 2004, research claims. Pew Internet & American Life Project ran a survey among 1371 Internet users to reach its estimates, which include users of file sharing networks (LimeWire, Kazaa) and legal services, such as Apple Computer's ITunes Music Store. Downloaders rose from 18 million to 23 million in the period. [...]
"While online music services like ITunes are far from trumping the popularity of file-sharing networks, 17 percent of current music downloaders say they are using these paid services. Overall, 7 percent of Internet users say they have bought music at these new services at one time or another, including 3 percent who currently use paid services." [...]
"ITunes, which reached more than 2.3 million Americans in March, has added nearly a million unique visitors since October 2003," the report states."
Mac: AudioSlicer 1.0.1 released
AudioSlicer is a Cocoa GUI application that finds all silences in an audio file and allows you to split it into several smaller audio files and to name/tag them properly. For now only MP3 is supported but other audio formats may be added in the future.
While most other tools doing this split automatically according to certain criteria, AudioSlicer shows you all silences within a certain range of duration. You can then listen to the silence - well, to the audio before and after the silence really - and then you decide if you want to split there.
The splitting is done without loss, there is no decoding and re-encoding of audio data taking place.

He is the deadliest American sniper ever, called "the devil" by the enemies he hunted and "the legend" by his Navy SEAL brothers.
From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. The Pentagon has officially confirmed more than 150 of Kyles kills (the previous American record was 109), but it has declined to verify the astonishing total number for this book. Iraqi insurgents feared Kyle so much they named him al-Shaitan ("the devil") and placed a bounty on his head. Kyle earned legendary status among his fellow SEALs, Marines, and U.S. Army soldiers, whom he protected with deadly accuracy from rooftops and stealth positions. Gripping and unforgettable, Kyle's masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all time.
A native Texan who learned to shoot on childhood hunting trips with his father, Kyle was a champion saddle-bronc rider prior to joining the Navy. After 9/11, he was thrust onto the front lines of the War on Terror, and soon found his calling as a world-class sniper who performed best under fire. He recorded a personal-record 2,100-yard kill shot outside Baghdad; in Fallujah, Kyle braved heavy fire to rescue a group of Marines trapped on a street; in Ramadi, he stared down insurgents with his pistol in close combat. Kyle talks honestly about the pain of war - of twice being shot and experiencing the tragic deaths of two close friends.
American Sniper also honors Kyle's fellow warriors, who raised hell on and off the battlefield. And in moving first-person accounts throughout, Kyle's wife, Taya, speaks openly about the strains of war on their marriage and children, as well as on Chris.
Adrenaline-charged and deeply personal, American Sniper is a thrilling eyewitness account of war that only one man could tell.

"Tremendously Enlightening, could not put it down"
I am a married Mother of 1 Son and 2 Step-sons. I have never served in the military and honestly do not have any close ties to the Military, other than my Father who served in Korea and a cousin who was killed in Vietnam during the TET offensive. Though I would prefer the world was all Love and Light with no war ever; that is just not how it is. I have strong feelings about the war on both sides of the issue, I respect others thoughts and opinions as their own; but no matter what I respect and support the courage, strength and patriotism of each and every member of our Military. I begin this review this way so that you can see I am a regular Jane.
This book is written from Chris Kyle a Navy SEal's perspective. It is about his life growing up in Odessa Texas and follows him through his life as a Navy SEal, from BUDS training to the war in Iraq and life during and after from his POV. If you are looking for fluff, BS and watered down opinions this book is not for you. Chris tells it like he saw it good, bad or indifferent from his POV. During the reading of this book I cringed, I smiled, I chuckled, I felt uneasy and a bit queasy, I cried and felt sad, but I was completely engaged the entire time. At no point did I feel lost or feel like I did not understand something. (Keeping in mind I am just a regular Jane); Chris explains acronyms, procedures and operations as the story moves along and talks in plain "Texan". Peppered throughout the book, Taya, Chris' wife gives us a heartfelt view of life with Chris. My heart could only bleed for her, Thank you Taya and "God Bless" you for all that you sacrificed for your country. And Chris for the record though you say (several times I might add) throughout the book that you do not consider yourself a "Bad Ass".........Uh Chris, you were a FEARLESS BAD ASS, period end of subject.
I am glad I decided to read this book; as honesty goes, Chris does not pull any punches and truly seems sincere in all his accounts of how things went down. I am not by nature one to believe everything I read and use quite of a bit of discernment as a rule, but at no point did I feel that anything but the truth as Chris saw it went from pen to paper.
Thank you Chris and every single person at home or deployed who Stand and Protect our great country. And thank you to all the Mothers, Fathers, Sisters, Brothers, Wives and Children who sacrifice so those brave men and woman can do just that.
This is a must read for anyone who wants to read a firsthand account of the sacrifices the men and women of our armed forces endure on a daily basis.
"For some, not worth the hype"
While the story was okay and informative at times, it was not worth the hype of other reviews and media spotlight. Perhaps I couldn't get passed the narrator's Texas accent that at times felt forced and more like a teenage boy than a grown man's reflection. It just didn't do it for me, but I will recommend it to teenage, or 20-something young men, as it has been a hit in my classroom.
"Informative, But Not To My Taste"
It was a bit distressing to experience the mind of a person who enjoyed killing humans, even though they are the enemy. I don't understand the psychology of it all. Maybe you have to enjoy it to be good at it, and our warriors need to be highly skilled. In my opinion, not most women's book.
"Couldn't stomach it"
One of the few audiobooks that I could not finish. I don't know if it was the reader or the story, but I got aggravated at the arrogant, xenophobic tone. The one minute trailer for the movie intrigued me, but that may have been the apex of the book as well. Disappointed.
"Not for me"
I skipped half of the book. Too much killing talk for my taste but I guess you have to expect that from a book titled American Sniper.
"Arrogant and violent."
Not much of a story. Just him talking about how great he thinks he is and justifying his violence. Don't waste your money.
"It was alright"
It wasn't great but it wasn't horrible. I found him to be extremely arrogant...but then again he was a SEAL.
whistle while you work, or listen to books
"Grain of salt"
A moderately good story. Some aspects seem exaggerated, not the sniper stuff. Although an autobiography it seems he wanted it to be more of a heroes journey. It's fine.
I was glad to see that the incident involving a notable seal was removed. I am sure losing the lawsuit for libel had something to do with it.
Knowing that he was fine with printing outright lies makes me take everything he says with a grain of salt. It's a story. Not a history.
"Maybe a good book for guys..."
This was the most boring book I ever read. I started skipping through it, but every place I stopped to listen it was just more about guns and fighting. I finally just quit. I got it because it had a 5 star rating. I come from a family that completely supports the military and had had a history of military service. And I appreciate the service if Chris and the other SEALS, but I think it's a book for guys. Not for me at all.
"Entertaining listen."
I really enjoyed this book, it's very entertaining, however I ended up detesting Chris Kyle!
He really comes off as a jock Red-neck and confirmed to me why America gets such a bad rep overseas. I find it very frustrating that he could not see the irony in his complete lack of empathy with the Mujahideen. I could not help but draw some huge parallels with a man who sported a Crusaders cross on his forearm and who's priorities were listed "God, Country and then Family" with the Muslim extremist he was gunning down.
Don't get me wrong, I think they were doing a job that had to be done, however I think Chris Kyle and other Americans felt they were fighting a holy war as much the Jihadists!
If like me your view of The SEALS has been tainted by this guy, check out Adam Brown's book, he really does completely renew your faith!
"Almost like being there."
A great listen, John Pruden's narration is spot on, his drawl is exactly what I would imagine Chris Kyle's voice is like. Every step of the way your alongside Chris listening to the thoughts of a proud and patriotic man giving an insight into his war. Theres a bit of technical detail but not too much to turn people off. In the end it's all about what he was feeling when he was doing his job, killing insurgents and watching colleagues die.
Thanks for sharing Chris.
"Humm ok"
After reading a few reviews I purchased. One thing that sticks in my mind is he is almost as extreme as the people he is shooting. I think something of this was mentioned elsewhere in another review. I like America very much but he love of the country and zeal for it was a bit too much for me. Some very good parts very well told.
"Respect to the fallen"
A heroic account of a snipers life, such a shame Chris Kyle is no longer with us. A life taken so needlessly after surviving countless tours of duty. Rest in peace "The Legend"
Great book and brilliantly narrated. I would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to know the real story of Chris Kyle, it makes you see even more how well Bradley Cooper portrayed him.
You will like this if you like books written by seals as opposed to books written by trained writers. Good story.
I watch the movie first and now the book as this man story as he and his wife struggle to keep together is so amazing story of this man and A inspiration to join the military as as I am going to
join the Royal Marines so can you get into the SBS
"Didn't enjoy it as much"
Too much cussing. I know it's a soldier's recount of his life. But cussing for the sake of cussing took away some of the seriousness of this book.
The late Kyle's attitude towards taking life made me cringe but that was his life experiences at the time.
What did I take away from this book. War is not nice. People die or come back changed.
An engaging account of war and his attitude to killing. I empathised with his viewpoint but didn't always agree. That's not a criticism of him or the book though. Tough times need tough characters, and Kyle was who you needed to get the job done.
This one kept me listening for hours, love this, one of my favorites, probably the best one, Chris Kyle rest in peace mate, I saw the movie first and I just had to see his story, and a few bits were blown out of purportion, wish they could of fit more things in, how he saved marines, but I like it how he doesn't see himself as better as everyone else.

text: 000 FXUS63 KILX 270208 AFDILX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lincoln IL 908 PM CDT TUE JUL 26 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 908 PM CDT Tue Jul 26 2016 An outflow boundary from convection to the south of our forecast area has advanced north toward our southern counties. It was responsible for a few funnel cloud reports near St Louis. Convection along that boundary has generally weakened in the last hour, as the storms from east of St. Louis have drifted to the E_NE toward Effingham and Clay counties. We already have slight chances of storms across our counties south of I-70, and that should suffice for now. The operational HRRR, RAP, and NAM12 show some storms possibly progressing northward into Sangamon and Christian counties later this evening, but other HRRR and ARW runs keep those counties dry the rest of the night and confine any convection to mainly along HWY 50 across our far southeast 3 counties. Will not expand PoPs northward just yet, based on radar trends. We appear to have had enough clear skies north of I-70 to mix some drier air down toward the surface, helping to alleviate fog formation later tonight. More persistent cloud cover south of I-70 kept surface dewpoints higher due to limited mixing from the dry mid-layers. Will keep only fog mention south of I-70 later tonight. The latest HRRR has become more optimistic with higher visibilities late tonight, so fog potential may be decreasing across the board. Low temps tonight appear on track for the mid to upper 60s in most areas, with low 70s south of Effingham to Lawrenceville. No major changes needed with tonights forecast, so no formal zone update will be needed. The minor edits are already available online. && .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday) ISSUED AT 252 PM CDT Tue Jul 26 2016 18z/1pm surface analysis shows stationary frontal boundary along the Ohio River, with 1018mb high centered further north across southwest Wisconsin. A cluster of thunderstorms with heavy rain that rolled along the I-70 corridor earlier this morning is now well to the east across southern Ohio, while additional scattered convection is developing further west along the front from southern Illinois into the Ozarks. Based on radar trends and latest HRRR guidance, it appears any convection that occurs for the remainder of the afternoon into the evening will stay south of I-70. Have therefore gone with a dry forecast through tonight across much of the KILX CWA, with low chance PoPs confined to the far SE. With mostly clear skies and light winds expected, there is some concern for fog overnight. A few high-res models are suggesting widespread visibility reductions, while others are showing little or no fog. Given what happened last night and the fact that ample boundary layer mixing is taking place today, have opted to keep fog out of the forecast except along/south of a Paris to Shelbyville line where recent rain this morning has provided additional low-level moisture. Once any early morning fog dissipates, partly to mostly sunny conditions can be expected on Wednesday. With frontal boundary still in place just to the south, cannot rule out a few showers and thunderstorms along/south of I-70 where low chance PoPs remain in the forecast. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday night through Tuesday) ISSUED AT 252 PM CDT Tue Jul 26 2016 Surface boundary south of the area will begin to move northward late Wed night and bring the chance of thunderstorms back into southeastern IL Wed night. In addition, as a ridge builds in the central plains, the boundary will get pushed east into the MO valley and across Iowa. Thunderstorm chances will increase in western IL and northwestern IL associated with the advancing boundary. By Thur, a surface low pressure area will begin to move along the boundary and into IL. This will continue the threat of showers and thunderstorms through Friday. As the low pressure area moves east, a cold front will get dragged through the area. By Friday night, the front will be south of most of the CWA, but the chance for thunderstorms will likely linger in the eastern part of the state through Saturday. Remainder of the extended period should be mainly dry, except for Monday in southeast IL. However, the blending of all the models keeps a slight chance of precip in the area Sat night through Sun night...and then again Monday night and Tuesday. Temps through the period will be in the lower to middle 80s. However, by the end of the current forecast period, above normal temps will begin to advect toward the area starting Tuesday as ridging in the plains edges toward the mid west. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening) Issued at 632 PM CDT Tue Jul 26 2016 VFR conditions will prevail at all TAF sites next 24hrs. CU over the area now will dissipate by issuance time so all sites will start as SKC. With high pressure building into the area, winds will be light and variable at all sites and even though most of low level moisture mixed out, believe a small threat of light fog is possible early morning. So have included a short TEMPO group at all sites with 3-4sm BR at most sites...5sm BR at PIA. FEW to SCT CU will develop again tomorrow morning, with less CU in the east than west. Winds will remain light tomorrow and somewhat variable. && .ILX Watches/Warnings/Advisories... NONE. && $$ UPDATE...Shimon SHORT TERM...Barnes LONG TERM...Auten AVIATION...Auten

MIDDLEBURY — Monday ushered in a new era for Middlebury municipal employees, who began working in the new, expansive town office building at 77 Main St. And on Tuesday, those workers were still pinching themselves as they settled into a facility that was more than a decade in the making.
"It doesn't seem real quite yet," a beaming Beth Dow said from her sumptuous office on the second floor of the stately structure.
MIDDLEBURY — Porter Medical Center officials last week publicly apologized for what they acknowledged have been almost 10 months of internal strife within the hospital, and urged physicians, nurses, staff and patients to help them turn the page to a new chapter in the organization's 91-year history.
MONTPELIER — Vermont House of Representatives Speaker Shap Smith might re-enter the race for governor, and one decision he has already made could affect the plans of at least one Addison County lawmaker.
Smith, a Morrisville Democrat, acknowledged in a March 30 phone interview with the Independent that he might re-insert himself into the contest for governor, this after having withdrawn from the race this past November.

MIDDLEBURY — The Addison Central Supervisory Union is considering the adoption of the International Baccalaureate (IB) program as a way of placing students more in charge of their own learning and to make them better prepared for success in an increasingly global community.
ORWELL — Orwell and the five other Addison-Rutland Supervisory Union (ARSU) communities will decide on April 12 whether to consolidate their school governance system into a single board that will oversee one education budget for its five elementary schools and Fair Haven Union High School.
MIDDLEBURY — Porter Medical Center officials on Wednesday promised to lead the organization out of its current period of financial challenges and broken morale, but served notice that the entire hospital community would in the meantime experience some short-term pain.
PMC's interim CEO, Dr. Fred Kniffin, provided a vivid preview of that pain during a jam-packed annual meeting held in Middlebury College's Bicentennial Hall, announcing the closing of the Porter Internal Medicine physicians practice.
It was around 25 years ago that I first became acquainted with the Middlebury municipal building at 94 Main St.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury selectboard has agreed to consider some new flooring for the multi-purpose room of the town's new recreation facility, in light of news that the current surface has allegedly led to some injuries suffered by participants in the recreation department's dance program.
MIDDLEBURY — Members of the Congregational Church of Middlebury raised a whopping $1.3 million during the month of February to cap a $3.2 million fund drive for a big addition that will begin taking shape at the historic downtown building this June.
MIDDLEBURY — Generations of Middlebury municipal workers have yearned for an upgrade from the dank, dreary and deficient offices in which they have toiled for the past 60 years.

We have established an Australia-wide observation program that exhibits recent developments in autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) systems to deliver precisely navigated time series benthic imagery at selected reference stations on Australia's continental shelf. These observations are designed to help characterize changes in benthic assemblage composition and cover derived from precisely registered maps collected at regular intervals. This information will provide researchers with the baseline ecological data necessary to make quantitative inferences about the long-term effects of climate change and human activities on the benthos. Incorporating a suite of observations that capitalize on the unique capabilities of AUVs into Australia's integrated marine observation system (IMOS) [1] is providing a critical link between oceanographic and benthic processes. IMOS is a nationally coordinated program designed to establish and maintain the research infrastructure required to support Australia's marine science research. It has, and will maintain, a strategic focus on the impact of major boundary currents on continental shelf environments, ecosystems, and biodiversity. The IMOS AUV facility observation program is designed to generate physical and biological observations of benthic variables that cannot be cost effectively obtained by other means.

Bracketpress is solid, but I'd like something more flexible. And if it already exists, awesome, clue me in...but I can't find it. Something that doesn't require that there be 64 "teams" to start (this is where Bracketpress is falling down on me). I'm going to continue using the "teams" word here loosely, but you could be running a competition where you're voting for "hottest model", or a talent competition, or "best performance", or anything in a similar vein.
In a perfect world, I would see it operating like so:
Admin Setup would include:
- How many "teams"? Obviously, must fit within the "bracketing" system in number - 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
- Define "teams". Enter a name and a seeding/ranking, possibly a description area for each "team", as well as a "division"/"location" so that you can have regions.
- Ideally, "seeding" could also be done randomly.
- Define timing between each round, if desired. In other words, Round 1 voting takes place [date] to [date], or "for 7 days"; Round 2 voting takes place [date] to [date]...lather, rinse, repeat.
- Allow for "only vote once per [x]", with [x] being "site visitors may only vote once per day", "once per round", etc.
Front end would:
- Render brackets as defined above
- Allow voting. For each pairing as defined within the bracket, site visitor clicks to vote for a favorite.
Back end would:
- Store votes from front end
- At end of each round, progress "winners" to next round of brackets
Thoughts? Like I said, if there's something out there I'm missing, by all means point me at it.

Primeros Pasos is a program of the association PASOS, a non-profit, independent organization with a comprehensive outlook on health care. With the collaboration of health professionals, health educators, volunteers, and community leaders, Primeros Pasos offers quality and affordable health care and health education to the rural, underserved communities of the Palajunoj Valley of Quetzaltenango, Guatemala. We incorporate and combine clinical care, health education, and community outreach projects to effectively provide preventative and primary care.
Our History
In late 2002, a group of Guatemalan and foreign students and doctors partnered with community members to revitalize an abandoned mission clinic located in a primarily Mayan-Quiche community outside of Quetzaltenango. The area residents had no local access to public medical services and limited resources to obtain care. The team began by bringing groups of primary school students to the clinic, combining health education with clinical care to address the high rates of childhood malnutrition and diarrheal diseases. Between June and November 2002, free medical services, medications, and basic health education classes were provided to over 1,000 children from the local public schools.
In 2004, the project became known as Primeros Pasos. The clinic and its staff continued to expand its reach into all areas of the Valley, develop new projects and services, and identify trends in the health of the communities. Years later, Primeros Pasos remains the only comprehensive and affordable source of local health care in the area and has extended their programs to include medical, dental, and lab services to both adults and children, and offers health education classes year-round to participating schools and community groups.
IAHA & Primeros Pasos
The Inter-American Health Alliance (IAHA) is a U.S.-based 501(c)3 non-profit that was started by former Primeros Pasos volunteers to support our operations. IAHA's status as a tax-exempt organization allows U.S. donors to receive a tax discount on their donation to Primeros Pasos. IAHA fundraises for Primeros Pasos' operations, provides organizational support, and coordinates donations of supplies. IAHA also works closely with other charitable U.S.-based groups and universities to develop sustainable relationships that help support the work of Primeros Pasos. IAHA is entirely volunteer-run, which means that the maximum amount of funds raised go directly to Primeros Pasos in Guatemala. To learn more about the work of IAHA, please visit www.interamericanhealth.org.

Clubroot disease is a major threat to crops belonging to the Brassicaceae. It is controlled most effectively by the use of resistant cultivars. Plasmodiophora brassicae, the causal agent, shows a wide variation for pathogenicity, which can be displayed by using differential host sets. Except for Brassica juncea and B. carinata, resistant accessions can be found in all major crops. Most resistance sources are race-specific, despite some race-independent resistant accessions which can be found in B. oleracea. European field isolates from P. brassicae display great variation and show a tendency to overcome different resistance sources from either B. rapa or B. oleracea. At present, resistance genes from stubble turnips (B. rapa) are most effective and most widely used in resistance breeding of different Brassica crops. Resistance to P. brassicae from turnips was introduced into Chinese cabbage, oilseed rape, and B. oleracea. Although most turnips carry more than one resistance gene, the resistant cultivars from other crops received primarily a single, dominant resistance gene having a race-specific effect. Populations of P. brassicae that are compatible against most of the used resistance sources have been present in certain European areas for many decades. Such pathogen populations appeared in Japanese Chinese cabbage crops only a few years after the introduction of resistant cultivars. As the spread of virulent P. brassicae pathotypes seems to be slow, resistant cultivars are still a very effective method of control in many cropping areas. Mapping studies have revealed the presence of several clubroot-resistance genes in the Brassica A and C genomes; most of these genes are showing race specificity. Only in B. oleracea was one broad-spectrum locus detected. Two loci from the A genome confer resistance to more than one pathotype, but not to all isolates. Progress made in the determination of resistance loci should be used to formulate and introduce an improved differential set. Future efforts for breeding P. brassicae resistance will focus on durability by broadening the genetic basis of clubroot resistance by using either natural variation or transgenic strategies.

Since my upgrade to version 3.5.2, I can no longer upload 1.5MB to 2.5MB sized jpg images to my media library. I can upload small images such as 250KB. This is the case with the multi-file uploader and the single file uploader. With the single file uploader I get an error message "Request Entity Too Large." The multi-file loader gives me an "HTTP error." It doesn't get to the 'crunch' stage.
I contacted my host and he said: "I've check the server config for that server and the maximum upload size is set to 20M for that server. Here's a list of the server settings:
memory_limit 64M
upload_max_filesize 20M
max_execution_time 60
max_input_time 120 (end quote by my host)
My theme allows 8MB images to be uploaded. What can I do to resolve this situation? Thanks very much!

Yoga: Slim Bodies, Strong Minds
Changing Your Lifestyle
Michael A. Taylor, MD, medical editor of Yoga Journal magazine, and a gynecologic oncologist in Carmichael, Calif., cautions that yoga itself will not do the trick in helping you lose unwanted pounds.
"When people are looking for a magic bullet, they're looking for one bullet, one thing that will change their life," he says. "Yoga isn't a magic bullet ... but it does offer the benefit of a change in philosophy and lifestyle."
If you take up yoga purely to lose weight, you may be disappointed, Taylor says. "It's when you become involved with the whole lifestyle process -- that's where yoga fits in."
Even if you're less than svelte, you can join a yoga class. "Not all yogis are thin," Taylor says. "Anyone can do yoga: older people, physically disabled people, overweight people."
What you need to do, however, is know your body's physical limitations -- and make sure that your instructor knows them as well, Taylor advises. "Correct guidance is important," he says. "When beginning the yoga process, it's important to be aware of your own limitations -- to rest when you need to rest, for example -- but it's also important to tell the instructor so that he or she can work with your individual situation."
In a yoga class, it's not important what you look like, Taylor adds. "The image of their body may concern people who want to lose weight, but in class, you're in your own space. You learn not to judge yourself or others, and this creates a safe environment."
Beginning yoga classes also focus less on postures and more on becoming aware of your body and learning how it moves, Taylor says. "You're really learning, from the very beginning, to nurture and take care of yourself."
Something for Everyone
If the poses are difficult for you, modifications can always be made. If you have a hard time bending, for example, you can start off doing the postures in a chair or even on your bed. Many yoga postures can also be done with props, like bolsters or blocks, so that you don't have to bend as far.

Scientologists Made a Mock New Yorker Magazine
They handed it out in front of the Condé Nast building.
Members of the Church of Scientology spent the morning outside the Condé Nast building handing out free copies of the Eustace Tilley–teasing issue of their new magazine Freedom, which comes complete with a DVD and the headline: "The New Yorker: What a Load of Balderdash." The mag is Scientology's rebuttal (see scans here) to a feature by Lawrence Wright exposing the church's nastiness, which came out six months ago. To be fair, the article did clock in at around 24,000 loaded words and making a magazine takes time. Nonetheless, Scientology should probably invest in a blog.

Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Why this was given a big-tit title and not an anal one is beyond me, since only one of the girls (Kimberly) is really large, while three of the five scenes contain anal action. It's pretty much a cast of unknowns and newcomers, such as Ted Graig and Duke, who are in the non-anal segments. The first backdoor episode has two people I'm unable to identify, including a new black girl, Lady Paree who's on the receiving end of the simultaneous probing. Cumisha Amado is in the other sandwich scene, which closes the show.
The story? What story? People wander around talking about Softball and jogging and trainers, and then they screw. Ms. Kupps, who like all the other girls has just one scene, graces the cover in a knockout pose.

Perry Reaches Out To Vander Plaats For Iowa Advice
As Governor Rick Perry ponders a run for the presidency, it is already clear that he doesn't mind working with the most radical of anti-gay leaders. Perry's The Response prayer rally is hosted by the American Family Association, whose spokesman Bryan Fischer wants to see homosexuality criminalized, and former activists with The Call, a prayer rally that defended Uganda's 'kill-the-gays' bill. Other individuals working with The Response include militantly anti-gay leaders Jim Garlow, Cindy Jacobs, David Barton and David Welch.
Now, the Des Moines Register reports that Perry aides are reaching out to Bob Vander Plaats, the head of The Family Leader. Vander Plaats led the successful campaign to remove three Iowa Supreme Court justices who backed marriage equality and is closely linked to (and funded by) the AFA. Vander Plaats is also tied to an effort that likened being gay to being a cigarette smoker and once said that allowing equal marriage rights for gay couples threatened the system of private property and gun-ownership rights. One former adviser said that Vander Plaats is "obsessed with the gay marriage issue."
Since Vander Plaats is a powerful Religious Right figure who has hosted presidential candidates like Michele Bachmann, Tim Pawlenty, Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, and Herman Cain, it is no surprise that Perry is in touch with him:
A supporter of possible presidential candidate Rick Perry of Texas telephoned an Iowa conservative leader today, inquiring about the political scene in Iowa.
"They were asking questions, asking my take on Iowa, how things are lining up and also making sure I know they like Rick Perry," said Bob Vander Plaats, president of the Family Leader, an Iowa-based conservative advocacy group that's hosting a presidential lecture series.
Vander Plaats said he has so far spoke with two Texans and one other out-of-stater, but declined to share their names because the conversations were intended to be private.
None of the callers included Perry's political strategist Dave Carney, or anyone who currently works for Perry, he said. "They're just people that are around him and they think he'd be good for the race," Vander Plaats said.

What does any business aim for?
but how is the question. If goals to be achieved in life are clear then leveraging fundas of how to be succuess in any business implies in real / personal life. Agreed?
PS - Not throwing all cards, lets see how you all can relate.

Sure, I knew it would be just read the second response, that was the actual focus, never mind though. Seriously explaining a whole concept what am trying to throw out would take 4-5 hours... . Will leave it alone
from the orginal post I got a feeling that you were commenting on Quality of personal life reflecting one's ability to conduct business of any kind with ease and with a clear goal defining success..
No, actually was saying quality of personal life can be improved by applying fundas used for making business sucessfull. nvmd
I have met 2 kinds of people- downright practical, downright money-centered, profit-oriented basically not-so-nice, just efficient and proactive in seeking thier goal of money-making. These also are very caring and focussing on family and taking care of them.
So seemingly, one is opposite of other.
I am not one of those people, so I am sure the other kkind exists as well.. So I believe that it is a matter of personal choice and preference.
I can delete this if this has nothing to do with topic.. which is very likely no, it's fine actually we can steer it in this direction if you want
BTW - Thanks QT and Raunaq for the responses.

Skip to comments.Police: Dallas mom glued daughter's hands to wall
Posted on 09/10/2011 3:53:51 AM PDT by Dallas59
Joselyn Cedillo, 2, was on life support with multiple internal injuries at a Dallas hospital Thursday, The Dallas Morning News reported (http://dallasne.ws/pKJtEb ). A hospital spokeswoman told The Associated Press she had no information on the girl Friday.
The newspaper, citing police records, said glue and paint were stuck to Joselyn's palms, and that skin had torn away in places.
(Excerpt) Read more at news.yahoo.com ...
I bet drugs were somehow involved in this horror :-(
Guilty ...
No doubt.
Could be fixed up. Sand paper that tattoo off her neck. Get some wire cutters and clip that thing off her lip. A good scrubbing and some sexy perfume and maybe not guilty. . . .
There is no fix possible for this monster.
Well, perhaps God could repair her soul...I just don't know....seems impossible to me.
This story makes me want to weep and drink.
Child Protective Services has taken custody of the girl and her three siblings, said agency spokeswoman Julie Moody. She said she could not discuss the family's history with CPS.
My guess is CPS has this address on speed dail
Fixed up?
Slow-roast electric chair would fix her up better.
Care to offer any beauty tips for Casey Anthony?
I hope CPS finds a good home for this precious baby and she forgets all about her nightmarish first two years of life. God bless her.
With God all things are possible.
This woman is obviously not the smartest crayon in the box.
Not everything that is possible is advisable. God made Casey Anthony with a beautiful soul, but she chose to serve Satan.
This is just further evidence that these most likely illegals are criminal invaders. 4 kids by 22? When did she start? 14? Nobody knows the parentage of the children who will be raised in the criminal element and we will not only pay for her but her bastard offsping.
Whats next? Conversion to Islam? By God, people, if we dont wake up and feel the power of the vote and clean this bunch out next fall and begin taking this country back, this is what you can expect to see every day in the paper.
The MSM protects this class of trash, if they pointed it out, and people were not so "tolerant" most of them could be driven back to where they came from. I have a lot of legal friends, I have no tolerance for illegals.
Actually it is worse than that.
The baby she beat nearly to death was 2 years old.
She had 4 kids by the age of TWENTY!!
My guess is CPS has this address on speed dail
I am guessing that they have had dealings with this woman before for child abuse and dont want the scandal that will erupt when it is found that CPS left the children in the care of a violently abusive mother.
For her I have my special. . . . .
Glock 9 or 44 magnum to the head, preferably by her own hand so nobody would go to prison for that tramp. . . .
I think she had an accomplice. We have not heard the last of Ms. Anthony. She will almost certainly die by misadventure within a couple of decades.
Yup...I can see the headlines now in Dallas paper
"Perry lets Mother glue kids hands to wall"
You do understand that is quite normal today in large minority populations and now to a degree in the white community.
Each kid is a cash cow:
SSI, EBT cards, WIC, $1,500 tax credit....and child support under the table with the threat of non payment....talking baby daddy to court !
Baby daddy must have been behind in cash payments so the precious little girl was just a tab bit less valuable to baby mamma....what the heck she can always pop out another....
The MSM tries to hide it but local papers reporting the incidents of 10 to 12 year olds birthing in local hospitals is getting more common. Dodge City, Garden City, and Liberal Kansas as examples.
Exactly right, those kids are cash tickets. The thing is, as soon as the sperm donor finds out, he runs back to Mexico and disappears then comes back in another route with a new name, and you cant pin them anyway.

AOP Alumni Connection for Excellence (ACE)
Research in both educational settings and in the workplace indicates that students and employees alike are more likely to succeed if they have had a mentor. Although mentors are useful for everyone, sometimes organizations implement mentoring programs to support particular parts of their populations, often newer employees (or in our case new students). And while mentoring programs are always set up with the best of intentions, their results are often mixed. The goal of this mentoring program, however, is to assist students with developing the skills necessary to make the most effective use of mentoring opportunities both in their academic as well as in their personal and professional lives. The ACE participants are eager to assist you through this developmental process and are willing to provide you with some sound advice regarding many of the academic and/or social choices that can play a crucial role in your future success.
Please note that all members of ACE are Geneseo alumni who have experienced similar cultural, social, academic and/or personal adjustments as many of you. The joy of their mentoring, however, will be not only to explain how they did it, but to ensure you that you too can accomplish your short term goal of completing your education at SUNY Geneseo.
Any suggestions and/or feedback on how we can continue to improve the connection program would be greatly appreciated and welcomed! On behalf of the AOP department, we look forward to the journey that we will embark upon with each other, and we hope that the connections you make here will springboard your overall success as a student at SUNY Geneseo.
If you are are an AOP alum looking to participate in the ACE program, please follow the link below to get involved.

Joe Auriemma (Class of 1966)
Education: B.A. Speech Pathology; M.S., Speech Pathology; M.S. Educational Administration
"After graduating from high school, I worked in a factory and played in a band for a year. My confidence as a student was not so great, but I learned that the secret to success was balance. I majored in Speech Pathology, pledged a fraternity and played in a band. I wasn't a scholar, but I studied and socialized and continued my musical interests, graduating cum diploma. I also completed my MS in Speech Pathology at Geneseo. I was a speech therapist in a school in the New York Capital District Area and in 1972 I co-founded and became the President of the Speech & Reading Improvement Center, Inc., a rehab agency that continues to provide speech therapy services to individuals of all ages. I was also an adjunct instructor at the College of St Rose in Albany for fifteen years. Now I'm semi-retired, continuing to serve as administrator with the center and provide staff development training for schools, hospitals, nursing homes and other health related facilities."
Darlene "Dodie" Pritchard Baker (Class of 1966)
Education: B.S. Elementary Education; M.A. Elementary Education; M.A. Reading; CAS, SAS School Administration
"I only went to college because it was expected of me by my parents. In those days, females were either nurses, teachers, secretaries or wives. Geneseo proved to be one of the best experiences of my life. The friendships I made have been life-long. I also met my husband at Geneseo. He was my 'big brother.' I began teaching part-time because we had children. Eventually I ended up teaching full-time for about 23 years. Now I am retired. Reading, nature, handicrafts and doing volunteer work are my interests."
Barbara Finkle (Class of 1968)
Education: B.S. in Education
"I was an Education major at Geneseo originally from Schenectady, I spent most of the years since graduation on the west coast. I now live in Santa Cruz, California and plan to continue teaching 4th grade until I retire (in two years). Art and using technology to enhance education are two of my stronger interests."
Rich Hofman (Class of 1963)
Education: Ed.D. in Education Psychology and Statistics
"I was an intellectual dolt for the first 27 years of my life. For the past 38 years I have been a professor at Miami University in Ohio (Miami was a University before Florida was a state.) I have worked with Masters and Doctoral students in Educational Psychology, School Psychology, School Leadership (administrators), and Curriculum Philosophy . Recently, I have been studying community demographics and how they influence school building and school district performance on standardized tests with a focus on poverty and how people amass experiences and how these experiences lead to attitudes and mind sets that help them make sense of their social world. I have also recently been studying critical race theory (racism)."
Gary Martzolf (Class of 1968)
Education: B.A. in Economics
"I graduated from Geneseo prior to the days of the Business School and spent my entire career working for banks in the investment area. The longest time was with Key Bank as Executive Vice President; I was responsible for portfolio management in the Trust Department. I "retired" from Key in 2003 and went to work for a small bank here in Canton, Ohio that was acquired by Huntington Bank. I retired again (this time for good, I think) earlier this month. I live in Canton, Ohio, about 55 miles south of Cleveland."
Joe Ridky (Class of 1963)
Education: B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in Speech Pathology
"I came to Geneseo from a lower-middle class home in Westchester County. I was the first child in my family to ever attend college. Following my 5 1/2 year tenure at Geneseo (I received my M.S. degree by staying another year and two summers) I did seven years of additional graduate work at Syracuse and Georgia State Universities. I remember saying to Dr. Harold Starbuck upon my completion of the Master's degree in Speech Pathology and Audiology, "Do you think I would be successful in a doctorate program?"
Linba Rubino (Class of 1965)
Education: B.S. in Elementary Education
"I taught 3rd & 4th grades for a 4 yrs and then went to work for IBM Experience and I'm still working for them after 38 yrs. I've taught customers how to use IBM office products, make staff assignments, and I'm currently working with assistants and management as a mini Help Desk. As a volunteer, I teach basic computer skills to seniors at a local Senior Center and I'm a member of Soroptimist International, a women's service organization whose goal is to improve the lives of women and girls, locally and throughout the world."
Greg Talcott (Class of 1968)
Education: B.A. in Political Science
"After a stint in the Army I went back to school and got an MA in International Relations from the University of Hawaii. In September 1973, I joined the State Department as a Foreign Service Officer. In addition to several tours in Washington, I served overseas as a Political Officer in Durban, Manila, Auckland, Freetown, and Jakarta. I retired in 1996 and moved to Wellington, New Zealand, then reconnected with the Department in 2002 doing consular work. I'm overseas for four or five months a year, filling in when there are staffing gaps or the workload exceeds what the assigned staff can handle. Otherwise, my wife and I live on a small farm in southern Virginia, two hours south of Roanoke and a mile above the border with North Carolina, where we are trying to grow grapes and produce truffles. (I still have trouble distinguishing one end of a tractor from another, so I'll pass on any questions about farming!)"
George Wilkerson (Class of 1964)
Education: B.A. and M.A. in English; Ph.D. in Educational Administration
"I was told in High School that I wasn't 'college material,' but Geneseo proved that wrong. After leaving Geneseo with a B.A. in English, I taught Junior High School for a year, then went to Syracuse U. for a Masters in Creative Writing (thanks to a caring faculty member). I then taught Senior High school for a year and following that, I wound up teaching at a community college in Virginia and eventually landed in Austin, Texas where I got my Ph.D. in Education and became the first Dean at the newly formed Austin Community College. When an old friend offered me a job with Shell Oil heading a training project in Nigeria, I got into the computer field (a long story) and became a Technical Writer. That led to work at Dell Computers writing and editing software and hardware documentation, then into doing government proposals for an environmental firm, and ultimately working at General Electric and then Lockheed Martin where I got to work on the Operations Manuals for nuclear subs. That was just too technical, so I retired and now I'm teaching composition and literature online for colleges in Texas, New Hampshire, and Florida."
