First of all I must be clear, I was a girl traveling on my own, so I needed that extra cosiness or romanticism to feel at ease, well, I didn't get it here, there is definitely nothing romantic or old looking about this hotel, everything is quite modern with a nice elevator, AC that keeps the room at a good temperature, a shiny bathroom with clean towels, hairdrier, bodywash/shampoo and a flat TV with some shows in English. The room was quite small but fine for the purpose, the bed is comfortable but the WIFI signal and speed in my room left a lot to wish for. In general the hotel is clean and the staff is friendly, one can buy breakfast for about 10 Euros extra a day, and if one has a train or airplane later during the day they will very nicely take care of the luggage.
Even though the hotel is not located in the city center, is not far from it, so the location is excellent for a tourist planning on sightseeing!! The tram 1 stop is almost in front of the hotel and that will take you to Dam Square and Central Station. The Leidseplein is walking distance just around the corner, and if your plan is to go to the Museumplein is also excellent just another 10 minutes walk!

About Jeff Masters
Dr. Masters co-founded wunderground in 1995. He flew with the NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990. Co-blogging with him: Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 12:59 AM GMT on September 05, 2006
Tropical Depression Six is having trouble making up its mind where its center should be. The center it organized around is getting competition from another center of circulation about 400 miles to the southwest, as seen in the latest QuikSCAT image posted at 8:30pm EDT tonight (Figure 1). The large area of thunderstorms about 400 miles southwest of TD 6, formerly designated "Invest 98L", is still there, and is causing major difficulties for TD 6, which can't make up its mind which center to consolidate around. Until the depression resolves this conflict, you can throw all the model runs out the window--they will not be able to resolve the double circulation centers. TD 6 may well decide to organize around the old Invest 98L center to the southwest, which would pull the forecast tracks further south towards the Lesser Antilles Islands. Another wind card is the presence of the new tropical wave to the east of TD 6, near the Cape Verde Islands. This wave is close enough to TD 6 that it may be stealing some energy from the depression and inhibiting its intensification. Again, the models will not be able to deal with this interaction with another circulation nearby.
Despite this conflict, TD 6 has grown stronger since this morning--there are many more red 40 mph wind vectors visible in the evening QuikSCAT pass (Figure 1) compared to the morning pass (Figure 2). It will be interesting to see if NHC upgrades the system to Tropical Storm Florence at 11pm, or decides to wait to see which center TD 6 forms around.
Figure 1. QuikSCAT satellite winds from 5pm EDT Monday evening, September 4, 2006. Wind speed and direction are coded according to the standard station model, and are color coded (in knots) according to the color scale at the upper right (10 knots = 11.5 mph). Black winds barbs occur where there is rain, and one cannot trust the wind speeds measured in those areas. Tropical storm force winds (35 knots) are colored red, brown, or purple; one can see many red wind barbs in TD 6. Note the increased winds (orange barbs, 25-30 knots) around Invest 98L, compared to the morning QuikSCAT pass (below).
Figure 2. QuikSCAT satellite winds from 5am EDT Monday morning, September 4, 2006. One can see one red wind barb in TD 6.
Cape Verdes Islands tropical wave
The wave just west of the Cape Verdes Islands has a closed circulation, which can be seen on QuikSCAT imagery from this morning and this evening (Figures 1 and 2). The wave's winds have not increased between the two passes by the satellite, and TD 6 may be inhibiting the wave's development. The wave is under a modest 10 knots of wind shear, and has some potential for slow development over the next few days.
Next update
I'll have an update Tuesday morning.

Facts:Linux version 5.10, Compaq Evo 500 series, 2.4 Ghz processor and 1 gb ramARTISAN Instruments, Inc. Sound Engine, PCI sound cardI'm new to Linux so I'm not sure how to approach this problem. The Artisan sound engine operates using the Linux OS - has to be version 5.10 - no higher. The sound engine is designed to send all signals thru the PCI sound card - NOT the onboard version. I have disabled the onboard sound contoller thru the BIOS, however, I still get sounds (computer beeps tones, etc) thru the onboard sound card and nothing thru the PCI sound card. As I understand it - the ARTISAN sound engine will only function thru the pci sound card and for this to happen the onboard sound card MUST be disabled. It seems like Linux is controlling all the IRQ's and has routed a path to the onboard sound card only.I'm used to Windows, therefore, am somewhat blind with regard to changing settings in Linux.Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I just want to learn this whole!!!!
Hi everybody.... I'm still what some would consider a Linux newbie. I've been playing around with it off and on for about 4 months but in the past few weeks I've really been getting in to trying to get AiGLX/Beryl to run. I tried unsuccessfully for about two and a half weeks before I finally got it to run last night. I'm sure it would've been alot easier if I weren't using a proprietary video card (nVidia GeForce FX 5200) and if i had not been an idiot and tried to use the old nVidia driver from the Kubuntu repo, but I think the little extra work made it just that much sweeter once I get it up and running. you can see my screenshot here...

Debian Networking
Synaptic is a graphical user interface (GUI) for managing software packages on Debian-based distributions. If you are using Debian or Ubuntu you will easily find Synaptic in the System Tools menu or in the Administration menu. Synaptic uses the GTK graphic libraries . So, if you are using GNOME on your debian-based distro you will probably have Synaptic installed as well. Synaptic is a graphical package management program for apt. It provides the same features as the apt-get command line utility with a GUI front-end based on Gtk+. http://www.debianadmin.com/
Like dd, dd_rescue does copy data from one file or block device to another.dd_rescue is a tool to help you to save data from crashed partition. It tries to read and if it fails, it will go on with the next sectors where tools like dd will fail. If the copying process is interrupted by the user it is possible to continue at any position later. It can copy backwards. http://www.debianadmin.com/

I've been meaning to post this for about a month now and am just finally finding the time. I had such a time getting this installed that I thought someone migh benefit from my searches.I needed to get our linux servers (running Ubuntu 6.06) into our nightly backups. We had them doing manual copies of certain things to a windows machine and backing up that, but obviously, that's not optimal. The problem is, the backup software we were using (Veritas BackupExec 10) is only supported on Suze and RedHat, so their technical support couldn't help me.Here is a step by step of what needs to be done:
Here are two links I found EXTREMELY helpful
I just joined the Ubuntux community and this is my first message. So, "hi!" to everybody. I just bought my new laptop which is -as you see- Acer Travelmate 2420. For people who are thinking of a bargain price, it has a very good value of USD 600. It has built-in wi-fi capability with 1.9 GHz Intel Centrino. Mine has the ipw2200 wireless chipset, some of the notebooks in this series has Atheros chipset. Regarding the notebook, it has pre-installed Linux options, but I couldn't find one in my country [Turkiye]. Accepting the EULA does not matter, since it is preinstalled, you have to pay the price [ridiculous but it is a "take it or leave it" situation]. Knowing that I paid the price and the hard disk will be "fdisk"ed in a couple of minutes, I accepted the EULA and written the four recovery cd's. Note that Acer does not give the recovery cd's but you make them when you boot. I put the cd's in my case thinking that in the future I may need them somehow [when selling my notebook].
Make you're ubuntu black in this page (LOL the instruction was not really clear and i use friendster blogging)just put you're comments here okay? Tilll my next THEME lol!

More than 300 Social Security Administration personnel welcomed Col. (P) Jody J. Daniels, deputy commanding general of First Army Division East, to their annual Memorial Day Observance held at the Social Security Administration Headquarters building in Woodlawn, Md.
Daniels was invited by the Veterans and Military Affairs Assistance Committee [VMAAC], a volunteer committee open to all SSA employees and their family members. The VMAAC recognizes the contributions made to the nation by employees who serve in the military, veterans, and their families.
"It is my great privilege to introduce our key note speaker whose career exemplifies the patriotism and noble service that we celebrate today," said Michael J. Astrue, commissioner of Social Security.
Daniels was greeted enthusiastically as she approached the podium.
"I am here today on behalf of a great many people and organizations," said Daniels. "First and foremost, I am a Soldier. On behalf of all Soldiers, I want to thank you for taking this time to remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in support of our great nation and our way of life."
As Daniels continued she talked about the origin of Memorial Day, and how it is a uniquely American holiday.
"Memorial Day was first known as Decoration Day, and it was officially observed for the first time on May 30th, 1868 because it was not the anniversary of a battle. It was not a day to commemorate war, it was a day to celebrate, to decorate, to show pride and dignity, honor, distinction and glory; to honor and commemorate the lives sacrificed in service."
Daniels concluded by encouraging the crowd not to forget the price that has been paid for freedom.
"It is fitting for us to celebrate that freedom today. Our celebration is what truly makes us American, but celebrate with a purpose," she said. "Decorate and honor those who gave their lives for our nation, and decorate and honor their families. Decorate and honor the difference they made in your lives."
Her final words were met with a standing ovation followed by a brief moment of silence to honor those who have given their lives in the name of freedom.
Following the observance, VMAAC thanked Daniels and pledged to send a care package on her behalf to deployed service members.
"We are advocates for our military population and engage in activities that strengthen our community," said Erin Fisher, an administrative assistant and volunteer member of VMAAC. "We send care packages to active-duty military units forward deployed as well as support non-profit programs for homeless veterans, and wounded warriors."
VMAAC also supports various organizations and projects like the Naval JROTC program at Woodlawn High School in Woodlawn, Md., veteran hiring initiatives, Veteran Employee Recruiting events, and mentorship programs for VMAAC members in career development.

will.i.am Fuels Rumor He's Dating Cheryl Cole
will.i.am's mum has fueled further speculation about the rapper's love life amid reports he's dating U.K. singer Cheryl Cole, admitting the Black Eyed Peas star has a secret girlfriend. will.i.am - real name William James Adams, Jr. - is said to have recently split from a partner of eight years and has since been linked to Cole following the breakdown of her marriage earlier this year.
Now his mum Debra Cain has sparked further rumors about his love life by hinting at a mysterious lover. She says, "William does have a girlfriend, but I can't tell you who it is. It is a secret." Cain insists Cole has been welcomed into their family and has even been invited to attend will.i.am's sister's wedding next week.
She adds, "We are saving a seat for her. We love Cheryl and we are very happy she is performing with William. I spoke to him yesterday and he is really enjoying this tour with her. I can't tell you if they are boyfriend or girlfriend, you will just have to wait and see what happens."

Form Building Basics - The Form Builder Tool [ID:914] (1/1)
in series: Form Building Basics - The Form Builder Tool
video tutorial by Sean Keesler, added 10/08
Our authors tell us that feedback from you is a big motivator. Please take a few moments to let them know what you think of their work.
The raw portfolio XML in an OSP portfolio contains XML content from completed student forms. The content that students author when they fill out the form must validatae against that form's schema. As a template developer, you might want to consider creating schema that are generic enough to be used to satisfy multiple form needs. In this video I use the Form Builder tool (contrib) as an easy way to begin building a XML schema file that I could use for multiple purposes in many form definitions. The more XSL template reuse I can achieve in the portfolio templates, the more consistent student portfolios will look.
It may seem odd to attempt to standardize data types in a system DESIGNED TO BE SO FLEXIBLE, but more than one institution reports that setting reasonable expectations for portfolio deployments across campus and managing your IT resources to leverage some amount of standardization do a lot to the project sustainable.

BarFly's Review of Dolphin II
Dolphin's hot little sister, you could do a lot worse for tits-viewing in the area, especially if you've ever found the strip clubs in Atlantic City to be to your liking. Classy? Who's to say, really--it's certainly a less prison-inducing option than peering around the two high schools just down the road, and you know, we cultivate a certain fondness for these places. Non-despair-inducing boob rooms in the far-away, that is, not high schools.

THIS PLACE IS FANTASTIC ! Seriously, rocking hot bodies and some of the friendliest, quirky chicks you have ever met, and I say "meet" because they are very personable and get to know you- for you ! You might just meet a super hot buddy like I did. If you live in Beaverton there is no excuse not to go- Its just really awesome, sexy chicks looking to have fun and make cool dude friends- WHAT IS NOT TO LOVE ABOUT THIS PLACE !?!?!? See you ladies soon
While there are some nice dancer. Some really great the club has recently changed the lighting at the stages to be much dimmer. It seems like they removed one or two that brought light to the stage. After raising this to the DJ he was saying no and how to just tell him about it as he sets the lighting. I really think they removed a couple. And after speaking with him he turned them all red which was one of the dimmest colors. I'm really disappointed as this was a favorite club of mine... Time to look else where... I'd like to email the club but they don't even have a 'contact us' email address on their web site. Just a phone number which won't do anything more than talking to the DJ like I did at the club...
A great place, at 2 now that dolphin one has closed. A gorgeous bar maid,a good dj and very friendly girls, not pushing for dances but giving great ones when you do get one. An inviting place unlike Stars which feels like a Vegas wannabe. Of course I am only taking about the mid day action, as I find it too crowded at night.
My brother a friend of ours and myself came from out of town and stoped by there last Friday night. We enjoyed it a lot. The staff was very friendly the dancers were very sexy. Especially the dancer who came over to one of the side stages from the main one and danced for us. She was very beautiful and not fake looking. My brother asked me if she was Indian I think she is but out of all the girls dancing she was the best. Next time I am in the area I will most defently stop in for a beer or two just because of how friendly and welcoming the place is.
My favorite place of all time!!!! Super hot girls at nite time. Drinks are pretty strong. Cool bartenders, good DJ's. Patio where you can drink outside... Love this place
Like all clubs Dolphin 2 has its good and bad points. The bad points. You can't get walk around to well. there are seats so scrunched together, one can't even get to a table to sit, much less get to the couch dance area without doing the excuse me, pardon me bit. Never any specials, like 2 for ones. Of course drinks are always on the high priced side of things. lol Good side of things: There are always lots of attractive, if not beautiful women waiting to make your night a more pleasureable one. Most seem to be good conversationalist, the couch dances are very nice, always make you want more, but in a good way. I like the way the entrance is set up, so as you walk in you are looking at the main right away. The more people at the stage the better the girl performs. I think the club should invest insome real ads to get but in the seats, most guys know of Stars just down the road, but not of D2. if they had more people inside the club, the place would seem more lively. The VIP area is a little to brightly lit, but the furnishings are very comfortable, great for makeing out, or getting a more personal dance. :-D Anyway i just wanted to get the word out that this is a fun club to chill with a girl or two for few hours, and leave happier than you came in. The girls just want to have fun, so go have fun with them.
I love Dolphin 2, much better than other strip clubs close by, thats for sure. Cool DJ's, good music, Super HOT Dancers who are Very Nice and Down to Earth Girls!!! Especially at night time there is plenty of Hotties everywhere :) Drinks are a little spendy but their good drinks! Bartenders are very cool too. I am a regular there now!!!
I went to the Dolphin II in the afternoon to waste some time. Four girls were working, none worth watching very long. A pretty blonde approached me and we made pleasant conversation, then went to the "private" room for some couch dances. I paid $20 for a fully clothed dance with a cushion between me and the dancer. WTF? Don't waste your time. Go down the street 6 blocks and get a real dance with no cushions and some real contact.
I visit a lot of strip clubs, and this one is the best i've found in the portland area, and one of my favorite anywhere. The girls are really nice, and mostly HOT.
This place is usually awesome. There's almost always some cool strippers and if there's 3 stages running there's almost always someone shaking something worth looking at. I wish they had more hot Asians, but then I wish everyone place had more hot Asians (and fake boobs make Asians cease to be hot, sorry) and more petite african american girls who have a degree in the old fashioned bump and grind. Now they have a weird thing with lap dances here. You can either have a traditional "she takes off her clothes and dances for you for a song" dance or the other kind. The other kind is where she keeps her clothes on and rubs up against your body, breaths in your ear and make enough physical contact with you to either remind you what making out in high school was like... in your dreams... or maybe give you a stiffy. Now while respecting the law is great, it's hard to argue with the fact that there are plenty of clubs where for a couple of bucks they will smash good old all natural boobs right into your face for a few bucks. If that's the kind of action you're looking for you won't find it here. But the girls are HOT. They look really good, most of them. Also there's a platform for the underagers to kind of stand like a slave on an auction block and wait for someone to buy a lapdance since they can't sit with you, it being a bar and all that. I've almost never left this place for at least 30 minutes when I got there. And they usually don't harass you with the drink minimum and the cover is half of Stars.
This place reeks of douchiness. Dress code? Please. This place has got a long was to go before a dress code seems appropriate. Sub-par girls, corny DJ, lame vegas-wannabe environment. The bartender was by far the hottest girl in the building, which is always frustrating.
Been there once. And that was my last. You walk in and its one of those loud joints with the DJ telling you to yell as loud as you can to win passes or some shit. The chicks were skinny plastic broads. I went there when they sold cigars. The lights are annoying and bright and its loud. Fuck that.
Dolphin II and Dolphin I, in Milwaukie are absolute SHIT HOLES. The owner, Dean, is a true sack of crap. The men's bathroom (if you want to call it that) at Dolphin I is the most disgusting, crumbling, ice age place to piss on the west coast. Dean is so cheap he wouldn't even put a door on the shitter. He put up a shower curtain. Seriously. The glasses that they use for beers may appear to be smaller than standard pint glasses, but they are actually the same. I brought this up to a bartender at D2 a few years ago and she poured a full beer from a regular pint glas into one of the glasses that they use and it was exactly the same. I do hate those glasses though. The quality of girls varies throughout the year. It can be loaded with hot peelers one month and down to just day dancers and fattys the next month. The bathroom attendant at ANY strip club outside of Vegas is moronic and insulting. It's just another way for Dean to squeeze as much cash as he can out of the customers. The attendant has to pay the house $X each night before he makes anything. I don't need to pay to pee or to have someone turn on the sink or hand me a paper towel. The drinks are WAY too expensive and are weak on top of that. The only good thing about this club is the DJ. Big guy who plays a little too much metal and hard rock and plays it a little too loud, but he's funny and truly keeps things moving along. The club is too dark, even for a strip club and the service is way too slow for money that you are paying for the watered down drinks. This place is complete and utter waste of time and money. Avoid it and Dolphin 1 entirely. I would throw a party if either or both of these clubs went out of business.
I have never understood the dress code enforcement at strip clubs. No one has ever been able to give me a reason why it is ok to wear a baseball cap backwards, or sideways, etc, but it is NOT ok to wear a beanie. They always just say the same shit about how they don't know, its just the rule. FUCK YOU! You're not high class for fuck sake, you're goddamn strip club with mediocre dancers at best. We're not in Vegas. This is just another form of discrimination and it fucking pisses me off. Then you charge a great deal more for drinks than any other place, and for what reason exactly? And what the shit is up with the girls having to put a long black skirt on when they give you a private dance, and not even taking their clothes off? Are you fucking serious? I'm paying $20 a song so the girl can PUT ON more clothes? Holy shit. No I'm not exaggerating. The girls seemed nice enough, yes, and the bartenders seemed nice as well, even the door girl. Regardless, allowing one type of headwear over another, charging more for drinks, and making girls put ON a long skirt to give you a private dance, are inexcusable. If you're a fucking tool with a fake gold chain and a popped collar who believes he is high class, then perhaps this would be the place for you. Otherwise, don't waste your time and/or money.
I do not like this place. Too many plastic titties. Bad attitudes. Small drinks. Serve beers by the pint damnit! Fuck! The beers here cost as much as in any other strip club, but they're smaller!?! You pay a cover to get in, the bartenders are surly, and they cheese out on the beer portion? There's a bathroom attendant! WTF? I hold my own dick when I pee, and I don't need to pay some guy a buck to turn on the tap water for me. If you're a high roller that loves to get ego strokes from silicone Barbies for as long as you can keep bleeding twenties, then go get'em, Hoss! Me? Ah, no. I like natural titties, shapely butts, smiles, and beer by the pint served by someone who aprreciates my business.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) _ In another tough budget year, University of Kansas officials are considering cutting back on using their private air flights.
The university owns a Citation Bravo jet and has 50 percent ownership in a 1999 King Air C90B turbo prop through Executive AirShares, both purchased with private funds.
KU says it spends almost $700,000 per year to keep the aircraft going.
University spokeswoman Lynn Bretz says individual departments that use the planes might have to pay for the flights and will likely cut back.
Bretz says the majority of flights are logged by the KU Medical Center's medical outreach program serving rural Kansans but the planes are also used by the athletics department, the provost and the chancellor.

Osama bin Laden's escape: A tale of subterfuge and hard cashBreaking News
It's long been a topic of discussion in intelligence circles and among those (myself included) who witnessed the intense U.S. aerial bombardment of Tora Bora that went on for nearly two weeks. Many analysts have suggested that bin Laden slipped through mountain passes into Pakistan, just a few miles away. But assessments of Guantanamo Bay detainees suggest he went in another direction, evading the mujahideen of the Northern Alliance, as well as the small detachments of U.S. special forces who we first saw in the area around December 8th.
The detainee assessments were made public by Wikileaks this week and published by the Washington Post, the Guardian and other media outlets.
One of them, compiled in 2007, is about a detainee called Harun Shirzad al-Afghani. Al-Afghani was a commander in the militant group Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin, a close ally at the time of al Qaeda. Al-Afghani claims that the al Qaeda leader escaped the area thanks to a Pakistani militant and cleric called Maulawi Nur Muhammad. And he says bin Laden headed north toward Jalalabad and later to the remote province of Kunar in north-east Afghanistan....

Reviews for Goodwill Industries Of South Central California
3 people found this review helpful
Goodwill Industries is a little-known extremely valuable community resource. When most people think of Goodwill they imagine thrift stores but what the majority of people don't know is that Goodwill offers very unique programs that cater to the underserved members of our communities. My experience interacting with Goodwill is a very direct reflection of their mission: providing opportunites for individuals with barriers or disabilities. Goodwill always puts the client first with the philosophy in mind that in order to foster indpendence/success in the workforce, it all starts with the individual. This philosophy is put into practice by highly qualified very passionate employees who come from a variety of backgrounds adding to the diversity and, thus developing a capacity to understand and better serve the needs of any individual who walks through their doors. Regardless of whether or not it is an individual with special needs who needs job placement assistance and coaching, or if it is an individual with special needs (and talents) who would like to open a business, Goodwill Industries has led many individuals to success that may otherwise still struggle with the hardships of disability or economic disadvantage. Thus catering not only to the needs of the economy and workforce, but also fostering independence and an improved quality of life for individuals.

A series of poly(arylene ether)s with biphenyl units and pendant sulfonated phenylsulfonyl groups was prepared via nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions of varying ratios of 3,5-difluoro-3′-sulfonated diphenylsulfone and 4,4′-difluorodiphenylsulfone with 4,4′-biphenol. As such, the sulfonic acid moieties reside in the meta position of a pendant, electron-poor phenylsulfonyl group. Mechanically robust proton-exchange membranes with ion-exchange capacities (IEC) ranging from 0.91 to 2.05 meq g−1 were cast from dimethylacetamide. The thermal stability of the membranes was evaluated via thermogravimetric analysis and the 5% weight losses were found to be in excess of 330 °C in air. The glass transition temperatures were determined, via differential scanning calorimetry, to range from a low of 148 to a high of 209 °C at IEC values of 0.91 and 1.79 meq g−1, respectively. The copolymer membranes reached proton conductivities as high as 142 mS cm−1 under 100% relative humidity, with relatively low water uptake values (8–32 wt%).

Dorothy Ann Dalton McGary passed away Wednesday, June 19, 2013, in Idaho Falls.
Dorothy was born June 23, 1926, in Shelley to Velta and Williard E. "Gene" Dalton. She spent her early childhood in Shelley and Lincoln, Idaho.
Dorothy met Garth C. McGary in June 1946, soon after he returned from WWII, and they were married Oct. 5, 1946.
She lived the majority of her life in Idaho Falls. Her life's work included working at the U and I Sugar factory with her parents, for the school district as a secretary at Skyline High School and in the court system for various local judges.
Entertaining in her immaculate home and cooking for guests was a pleasure. Her joy was growing beautiful geraniums of every kind and color, but especially deep red; as well as having a vast flower garden. Dorothy was a beautiful quilter, giving her intricate quilts to family and friends. Crocheting was also one of her pastimes. She loved her granddogs: Ben, Shadow, Oliver, Lucy, Sparky and especially Jack, with all her heart.
In her later years, walking at the mall was a daily activity for Dorothy and Garth. This aided in the fast healing of her broken hip.
A special thanks to Tom and Sandy Albaugh for their help and friendship.
She is survived by her husband, Garth C. McGary, and daughter, Janet L. McGary.
Dorothy has been in the wonderful care of Turtle and Crane and OneSource Hospice, and we are especially grateful for the superior care she received.
In lieu of flowers, please love a dog or cat.
Graveside services will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday, June 22, at Ammon Cemetery.

Reserved here following the many positive reviews on tripadvisor. Having stayed for four nights this week I can see why.
The location is perfect for sightseeing, within walking distance are Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace and Blue Mosque (and Grand Bazaar, Spice Market etc.).
Greeting when arriving is great and they take the time to explain everything to you, how to get around, where they are in relation to other sights.
Room itself was spotlessly clean, very comfortable with a great shower.
Spa facility was great with a pool, jacuzzi, sauna and Turkish bath.
All in all great place to stay for a fraction of the price of Four Seasons.

Hi, I am using WP 2.5-RC2 with All-in-one SEO and XML-SITEMAPS generator.
When I publish a new post google will index it, i'm assuming after XML-Sitemaps does its magic, and when it appears in google it properly shows the post title as the link but the blurb underneath is links from my header not the post. You can see what I am talking about by looking at a site search of my site here.
if you look at the sourch you can see that the SEO optimizer is setting the meta description properly which is what I thought google populated the blurb under the link from. Any ideas would be most appreciated.

The estranged father of singer Charice Pempengco was stabbed to death in her hometown in the Philippines
The teen star, best known in the U.S. for her recurring role on Glee, apologized to fans for having to pull out of shows scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday in Singapore so she could travel home to the Philippines.
"I am not going to be there to be part of David Foster and Friends concert," she said in a post Tuesday on Twitter. "I have to go back to the Philippines as soon as possible to be with my family."
Her father, 40-year-old construction worker Ricky Pempengco, had been at a small grocery store in San Pedro township south of Manila late Monday when he brushed against a drunk man who became angry and stabbed him with an ice pick in the chest and back, according to the Laguna province police chief, Senior Supt. Gilbert Cruz.
A manhunt has been launched for the suspect, with a 20,000 pesos ($ 470) award for information leading to his arrest. Cruz said the killing appeared random and there was no indication the suspect and victim had any prior grudges.
Charice had long been estranged from her father. Local media reported that Charice's mother left him when Charice and her younger brother were small children.
In another Twitter post Tuesday, Charice said she once had a "really great relationship" with her father before their family troubles began.
"I loved him and I will still love him," she wrote. "He's still my Dad after all."
The 19-year-old songstress, born Charmaine Clarice Relucio Pempengco, is widely known throughout Asia from concerts and TV talent shows in the Philippines and South Korea.
She has said she would borrow bus fare to travel to amateur singing contests, and eventually broke into the American market when she was invited at age 15 to appear on The Ellen DeGeneres Show after the show had seen a fan video of her on YouTube that went viral.
She also appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show and has had a recurring role on Glee as the character Sunshine Corazon.

There are several new state laws set to go into effect next week.
As usual, the Legislative Research Commission sends out a press release that provides a short synopsis of some of the more pertinent laws passed during the most recent General Assembly.
And also as usual, there are several that are long overdue.
Here are a few of the ones that caught my attention. All go into effect on July 15.
- Amusement park safety. SB 203 will require more frequent inspections of amusement park rides and prevent anyone younger than 18 from operating the rides.
Restaurants that plan to serve alcohol in Campbellsville will be charged an 8 percent regulatory fee and will not be permitted to sell alcohol on Sundays.
During its regular meeting Monday evening, Campbellsville City Council approved the first reading of an ordinance defining alcohol fees, establishing a local Alcoholic Beverage Control board and setting hours during which alcoholic beverages can be sold.
On the weekend of June 27, the family of Anita Berry and the late Vernon Berry were the guests of Rodney and Sandra Berry of Clay, Ky.
The gathering took place at Eddy Creek on Lake Barkley where they have their cabin cruiser parked.
Those present were Anita Berry, Mr. and Mrs. Daryl Berry, Stacey Berry, Mr. and Mrs. Michael Burns and children, DeAna and Blake; Priscilla Berry and daughters, Rachel Henn and MacKensie Henn; Mr. and Mrs. Hayden Johnson and family, Daniel, Devin and DeLanna Johnson along with Devin's friend, John.
Grayson Carter Booe is the 9-month-old son of the Rev. Rodney and Kari Jo Booe of Campbellsville. His grandparents are Tessie and Pat Edelen of Springfield and Rea and Dick Booe of Veedersburg, Ind. Grayson's photo was submitted by his babysitter, Rita Smalley of Campbellsville.
The Taylor County Junior Miss Scholarship Program is set for Saturday, Aug. 23.
Once again, Campbellsville Independent Schools will be hosting the program at Campbellsville High School's Hamilton Auditorium.
Mark and Robin Davis announce the upcoming marriage of their daughter, Sarah Rose Davis, to Patrick Lewis Davis, son of Sheila Davis and the late Elmer Lewis Davis.
Sarah is the granddaughter of the Rev. Ivan L. and Guin Jones, Gerald Davis and Frances Davis.
She is a 2004 graduate of Green County High School and is enrolled in the registered nursing program at Western Kentucky University.
Patrick is the grandson of Joyce Pepper, Vechie Davis and the late Ralph Pepper and Loy Davis.
Police have arrested a Campbellsville man in connection with the theft of a flatbed trailer on July 9.
According to a Campbellsville Police report, police responded to a report of the stolen trailer at 2:20 a.m. The 16-foot flatbed trailer was stolen from Fluortubing USA on Industrial Drive.
Four minutes after responding to the call, police stopped a Jeep pulling the trailer on Vine Street. Police arrested the driver, Christopher G. Thompson, 33, of 314 Clem Haskins Blvd., and charged him with theft by unlawful taking more than $300. He was lodged in the Marion County jail.
Covered in sawdust, Greg Kirkland sets his sights on the bowl spinning on his lathe. With not even a moment's hesitation, he leans in with a gouge. Ribbons of wood and sawdust fill the air as patterns begin to emerge on the bowl.
There's beauty in nature. And Kirkland's passion is finding that beauty. The key is not to make plans, Kirkland said. Instead, he follows the directions laid out in the wood's own design.
"[The wood] kind of tells me what it wants," Kirkland said. "If you plan, it won't work. If you try to fight it, you'll lose."
Most of us could all agree that economic development is important to our community.
Since Fruit of the Loom and Batesville Casket Co. abandoned our town a decade ago, we were left with picking up the pieces of what was left.
But we picked up those pieces and have actually been able to diversify our local businesses, with the addition of Amazon.com and others.

- I think being openly transphobic is illegitimate and contradictory for a liberal newspaper.
- None of these things are true, and trying to claim they are is simply an attempt to stop others from pointing out your transphobic behavior.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

Fidel Castro this week fired his first verbal shot at President George W. Bush since he took office, saying he hoped his new adversary in the White House is "not as stupid as he seems."
In a Sunday speech shown late Wednesday on state television, Castro said that "someone very strange, with very little promise, has taken charge of the leadership of the great empire that we have as a neighbor."
"That gentleman has arrived there, and hopefully he is not as stupid as he seems, nor as mafia-like as his predecessors were," the Cuban leader said. He added, however, that he was not troubled by Mr. Bush's presence, saying "he's there, and we are calm over here."
The United States "cannot invent anything against us," said Castro.
Mr. Bush is the 10th American president to serve since the 1959 triumph of Castro's revolution.
The new U.S. president has expressed support for the four-decade American trade embargo on Cuba. He has said he envisions no change in U.S. policy toward the communist island unless free elections are held and political prisoners are freed.
During last year's presidential campaign, Castro described Mr. Bush, a Republican, and Democratic candidate Al Gore as "boring and insipid."

SDCC: Marvel: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends Panel
Comic Books
Hello and welcome to Shelf Porn, where fans show off their collections. Today's shelves come from Chris in Canada, a.k.a. hawkeyeps on the CBR forums, who shows us his collection of Marvel statues and busts.
If you have some shelves of comics, action figures or other related collectibles you'd like to show off, I could use some more Shelf Porn — send me a write-up and some jpgs at email@example.com.
And now let's hear from Chris …
My name is Chris, I go by hawkeyeps on the boards. I have my own home inspection company in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. These are pictures of my home office. Just got the new Bowen Taskmaster statue and was feeling proud of my collection so I thought I would share.
A very nice collection.
That is just awesome
Are those 3′ Marvel Universe figures all still in the package? That's a huge stack! And those Alpha Flight busts? Sweet! Not bad for a guy from Calgary. I'm from the capital just up the QEII, so that was hard to say! Just as long as you're not a Flames/Stamps fan, I'll say that setup is great!
This is the first of these shelf porn collections I've ever thought was cool. Well done!
Lovely collection. A lot of classic Marvel characters, which makes it just up my street, too. Thanks for sharing!
nice collection espicaly having alpha flight together. also love the hawkeye head and arrows thing
Nice collection!!!
I love the inhumans set–great looking displays.
How do you keep the dust off of all of these? Awesome stuff.
Hey everybody, thanks for all the kind words glad you like it as much as I do.
I am a child of the 70s so I love the classic 70s/80s looks. For me the Defenders just drip 70s and the WCA is quintessential 80s.
The Inhumans grew of Lockjaw, I got him first and he's still one of my favourites.
I also love Alpha Flight because John Byrne was from Calgary and I'm Canadian, Eh?
Dusting is a constant battle with my trusty 360 swiffer, but it is a labour of love.
Thanks again for looking :')
I LOVE the Defenders shelf!
LOVE the Alpha Flight set!!!
Masters of Evil set is bad ass too. I think that Taskmaster figure is one of Bowen's best.
I'd love to get into collecting more Bowen statues and busts but still only have a few Spidey's – Still more about the comics for me but that is a SWEET collection.
And that is why I don't buy statues. I would end up having to create teams, duos, and other such things such as displayed above. But well done
I like how he themed the shelves. (Alpha Flight Shelf, Villains shelf, Avengers Shelf etc.)
Now that's a real statue/figure collection. Well done. If only I can afford both comics and figures/statues, the sky is the limit.
Wow, a lot of stuff I wish I had! Love the Alpha Flight shelf too. Great collection.
Nice!! Love that Kazar bust and the Alpha Flight display!
Taskmaster looks like it is in smaller (less than one-sixth) scale than Ultron. What gives? Is Bowen Designs scaling down their statutes?
where are the comics?
I love it.
Especially how you arranged the Avengers is great . Looks like the just jumped of a big cover or poster.
And is this Force Works??
Like I said. Love it.
Awesome display. But since when can Black Knight be considered pornographic? What exactly does a bust of LockJaw have in common with Jenna Jameson?
The whole shelf "porn" thing is throwing me off a little, lol.
WANT, but my wife would never allow this. I get one shelf for my Marvel Legends/DC Universe figures (I alternate), and that's it. The things we do for love.
Frakkin' great collection!
Very nice display – I have a few of those busts myself. And now I find out they've done a Moondragon Marvel Legends figure (nice purchase.)
Overall a great room – just do something about those AV/ audio chords (not that I can say much as my room ALWAYS has something like that needing to clean up!!!)
Thanks for sharing
I had to take a look at these a second time. I can imagine these statutes come to life when the lights go out (thinking like Toy Story). You have to admit these really look lifelike. Growing up I only had Mego figures to display and you had to pose them in a way that resembled your favorite scenes. I personally like Vision, Machine Man and Sub Mariner.
@ Jamie- Moonie is a custom I made from a Mystique, I don't think they'll ever make her. :'(
@Matt Jeske- My comics are in the bedroom, not much to see there, just lots and lots of boxes. I've got a bunch of other stuff but it's put away in boxes. I can only display so much, I think I'm almost at my limit. I don't want to turn in to a wierd hoarder guy and it doesn't look as good if you have too much stuff crammed together.
Thanks again for looking everybody, glad you're enjoying it :')
@Mike K- Thanks, that Vision display is an homage to the cover of Avengers #57, "Behold…The Vision"
Jack of Hearts! Dang, I wish they'd bring him back…
Chris – that is a great collection…. which serves to show me which busts/statues I DON'T have in my collection… thanks a lot!
On top of the tall bookshelf, the Hawkeye mask/bow thing… what is that? Where did you get it?
@Vince- It is an older Sideshow piece, I got it off ebay a few years ago, it's #426 of 750. They also have other ones like Caps cowl and shield and Thor's helmet and hammer. I don't have those but had to get the Hawkeye one as I'm a Hawkeye nut (obviously).
Thanks for looking :')

[Verse 1]
Shakedown 1979
Cool kids never have the time
On a live wire
Right up off the street
You and I should meet
Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end
To it all
"1979" is on the Smashing Pumpkin's album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
The song is about the transition from youth to adulthood
This was the last song recorded for the album. Billy Corgan believed it belonged on Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, but only had a rough idea of what this song was going to sound like. The band was given 24 hours to write and record it…lucky for us they did just that.

'The Rake's Progress'
The music of The Rake's Progress—although indebted to Gluck, Moteverdi, and Mozart—displays the composer's distinctive rhythmic complexity and harmonic inventiveness.
The music of The Rake's Progress—although indebted to Gluck, Moteverdi, and Mozart—displays the composer's distinctive rhythmic complexity and harmonic inventiveness.
The MoMA exhibition is the first complete exhibition of Degas's monotypes since the one at Harvard's Fogg Museum in 1968, and it is indispensable for an understanding of his quest for new techniques, new subjects, and new forms.
The movement vocabulary of the ballet Agon is simple, almost pedestrian at times: walking, small steps, the leg—turn in and turn out—showing the human body from every angle, and building to a complicated series of intricate movements that are rarely strictly classical in form.
Newly restored, Andrzej Żuławski's incomparably weird and almost indescribable masterpiece is outsider art on a huge scale.
A pundit's delight, this three-week series of footnotes to the grand spectacle of an American presidential election opens with the quintessential Kennedy-era film, The Manchurian Candidate (1962), continues through the key movie of the 1976 campaign (All the Presidents Men), and ends with the 2002 Bush family documentary Horns and Halos.
It's exciting to see viewers bowled over by the current exhibition of Francis Towne's paintings from Rome, selected from the amazing archive of the Department of Prints and Drawings at the British Museum to celebrate the two hundredth anniversary of his death, and curated by Richard Stephens.
A multivalent exhibition now at the New-York Historical Society, drawn from the sprawling folk art collection of the sculptor Elie Nadelman (1882-1946) and his independently wealthy wife, Viola (1878-1962), is far more interesting than even its organizers seem to realize.
The Boston area's most prestigious cinematheque, Harvard Film Archives, is devoting much of its summer to one of the most robust talents of post-World War II Hollywood, often lurid and consistently critical in his approach to genre.
MoMA celebrates one of the great cut-ups and most intelligent actors of the early postwar period.
In England, it has been truly observed, summer's lease hath all too short a date, and we make the most of what there is of it in our damp little island. From May to September there's a rich musical life outside London.
Under the rubric "Unfinished: Thoughts Left Visible," this monumental show gathers together works from the fifteenth century to the present.
The sculptor and installation artist Cornelia Parker has curated an extraordinary show that feeds on deep strands of feeling with wit and warmth.
There's much to be said for avoiding Mediterranean countries between May and October, but some attractions won't wait until the more temperate autumn, notably exhibitions in Madrid, Rome and Venice, the latter two now in their last days.
Frances Morris and Tiffany Bell's show is a commendable map that reveals Martin making her way, step by step, her pilgrim-like progress measured against all those flat skies, fields, trees, bodies of water, barely expressed emotions that made up her home.
More than anyone else, Burle Marx freed horticulture from restrictively conventional European precedents and ushered his discipline into a new age of regional appropriateness on a global scale.
New panoramas by the photographer Nick Brandt—now on view at Edwynn Houk Gallery in New York City and Fahey/Klein Gallery in Los Angeles—present breathtaking scenes of people going about their daily lives in what are now industrialized and polluted landscapes, seemingly watched over by the mythic animals who preceded them but are now gone.
Although Alexander Hamilton never became president of the United States, he is more famous than most presidents, and these days is doubly famous because of the impending decision to remove him from the ten-dollar bill and, more important, because of the hit Broadway show Hamilton.
Sarah Wood and Alice Sage, the curators of the "Small Stories" exhibition of dollhouses, have found ingenious ways to play with scale and changing dimensions in order to bring the installation's twelve featured structures, all but two English, ranging in date from 1673 to the 1990s, to dynamic life.

- outcome study
Objective: This paper describes the outcome for the first 148 patients referred to a lithium clinic.
Method: Two-year follow-up data from treatment charts are reported for all patients entering a lithium clinic in the study period.
Results: Lithium was given as the only mood stabilizer in 132 (89.2%) of the cases. Thirty-two (21.6%) patients were readmitted with a new affective disorder episode. Twenty-nine (19.6%) patients discontinued treatment prematurely. Variables predicting the recurrence of new affective disorder episodes as well as premature discontinuation of treatment were identified.
Conclusion: The majority of bipolar patients received lithium for prophylaxis against recurrent affective disorder episodes. The outcome was moderate but comparable to the 30–40% improvement usually reported in follow-up studies of bipolar patients given long-term prophylactic treatment with lithium. Better long-term treatment results for bipolar patients depend on both the development of more effective mood stabilizing drugs or drug combinations and the improvement of patients' adherence to treatment.

I'd like to stress this problem didn't start for me with 2.4 I encountered it with the previous version, but because I hadn't had reason to make any changes, I hadn't visited that page since before updating to WP 3.6.
Simply stated, those buttons which I used to be able to drag and drop, won't budge. I've tried 4 different browsers and the results are the same. Any suggestions?
One problem I had with the previous JP version has been fixed in 2.4. The comment function works again. :-)
