- //Decahedron
With their first album Disconnection Imminent just under their belts, Decahedron have lived through enough drama for a veteran band. Originally performing and releasing their first EP under the name the Black Sea, the group was forced to change their name due to legal reasons. Then just after finishing recording their debut full-length, Fugazi bassist Joe Lally announced his departure from the group to spend more time with his family. Guitarist Shelby Cinca and drummer Jason Hamacher (who played together in Frodus) asked ex-Roadside Monument bassist Johnathon Ford to fill in, and now one band name change and one new bassist later, Decahedron is ready to take on the world.
Where their debut EP hinted at a ferocious '90s era Dischord sound (think Hoover) combined with the angular post-punk bands from the west coast (think Drive Like Jehu), Disconnection Imminent delivers and ups the ante on its predecessor. Unfortunately, the album isn't consistently strong, and lyrically, it falters. Luckily for Decahedron there is enough here that those willing to get past the weaker tracks and unengaging lyrics will find much to like about Disconnection Imminent.
Disconnection Imminent
US: 19 Apr 2004
UK: Available as import
Right from the start, Decahedron grabs the listener by the throat and doesn't let go. "Delete False Culture" without a doubt brings down the house live, and on CD it's just as powerful. Led by buzzing, charged guitars, the track crackles with intensity, accentuated by Cinca's jaw-dropping, powerful, visceral voice. No matter what the lyrics are, Cinca genuinely feels them and delivers them as if his life depended on it. "No Carrier" is equally catchy, riding on some nicely crafted guitar progressions. Drummer Jason Hamacher arms seem to be made of steel, because he thunders on his kit like a man possessed. "Not These Homes" and "Lt. Col. Questions Himself" are propelled by Hamacher's inspired performances.
It's too bad the other half of the CD can't measure up in intensity the aforementioned tracks. The band unwisely includes two forgettable, inconsequential instrumental tracks. Journeys into slower, more mature tracks are equally unimaginative, leaving this listener wanting for the pace to pick up again with the more energetic songs.
With a political agenda clearly in mind, lyricist Cinca, paints a world where technology and city living has turned us to mindless automatons. Where Radiohead's OK Computer addressed a similar issue, the paranoia and fear was projected inward, creating a personal sense of unease and wariness that was ultimately universal and beautifully bleak. Cinca lacks Yorke's poetry, and the lyrics come across as didactic and somewhat shallow.
On "Every City Is a Prison" Cinca sings: "Society breeds/ Disconnection/ The youth can't relate/ We call can't relate/ Can't relate to anyone in this foreign place/ Commodified/ Generalized/ Machinized/ Empty lives/ I don't believe the lies."
"No Carrier" finds Cinca lamenting: "It seems we've been disconnected/ As we come upon the world/ Calculate the fads/ Double up the fashion quo/ Is this what we were warned of/ By authors and thinkers past/ Only time will tell."
Cinca's politics are well intentioned if somewhat overly simplistic. The fears he voices regarding the technological revolution are the same that were voiced at the beginning of the industrial revolution. Instead of seriously questioning, the lyrics come across as those written by a Luddite railing against all these "new fangled gadgets". Furthermore, by not investing himself personally into the narratives, the lyrics come across a belligerent argument rather than an informed opinion.
However, Decahedron have little to worry about, as most people don't turn to music for their politics, but they do pay attention to the songs. Disconnection Imminent is in every way a "first album". The things that make it work simply shine and the missteps are glaring. Decahedron have offered up an admirable first effort, but this will be an album they will build their sound on.

Rolling Stone (12/26/96, p.198) - "...a more conventional country-blues record than AMERICAN RECORDINGS. It is also less of an art project. Cash brings equal helpings of spirituality and savoir-faire to his singing..."
Entertainment Weekly (11/08/96, p.69) - "...a travelogue of Cash's sticky psyche--the repentant sinner wrestling with dark desires. Backed by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Cash still sounds like the Voice of the Ages, with his bass baritone wobbling on pitch as it hasn't in years." - Rating: B+
Alternative Press (4/97, p.66) - 3 (out of 5) - "...Cash slips on [these] tunes as comfortably as a black mourning coat."
Musician (2/97, p.123) - "...the sound is pure Cash--all chesty rumble and straight-strummed guitars with nothing funkier than a rockabilly beat from the rhythm section....UNCHAINED seems such classic Cash it almost doesn't matter who's playing with him..."

UNCHAINED won the 1998 Grammy Award for Best Country Album. "Rusty Cage" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance.
Johnny Cash follows up his solo-acoustic comeback, AMERICAN RECORDINGS, with another astounding slice of Americana. This time around he rocks out a bit, with the able assistance of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, while maintaining the raw, stripped-to-the-bone production (by American Records label head Rick Rubin) that made the last one so vibrant. The Heartbreakers provide the perfect accompaniment, with a rootsy sound that's sprightly but never overwhelming, leaving plenty of room for Cash's cavernous baritone to jump off the album and into your soul.
Cash has always displayed a sharp ear for material, but he's rarely been as daring and unconventional in that sense as he is here. In addition to writing three strong originals for UNCHAINED, Cash takes on songs by postmodern folk-rocker Beck (the startling album opener "Rowboat") and the grunge-rock band Soundgarden (whose "Rusty Cage" sounds scarily made to order for Cash). He also does a Dean Martin hit, "Memories Are Made of This," and Petty's "Southern Accents," along with old country standards from the catalogs of Jimmie Rodgers, the Louvin Brothers and others. It's quite a selection, and Cash lays his claim on every song so completely that you may never be able to hear the originals the same way again. Johnny Cash is a rare breed. The purity and power of his voice cut through to the essential, primal truth of any song he sings.

Lords of the East: The East India Company and Its Ships (1600-1874)

ISBN: 0851777864Издательство: Conway Maritime Press
For nearly a century a massive Asian empire was administered by a privately owned company located half a world away. The turbulent story of England's Honourable East India Company and its rise to power is recounted in this lively and informative history of the company's past four hundred years. From 1600 to 1863 the East India Company prevailed against rival European companies and almost continual warfare to gradually win control of India and spearhead the Western penetration of China. The author goes beyond the company's commercial exploits, the scandals of the opium trade, and the stirring nineteenth-century Tea Clipper races to delve into the lives of its employees, East India's peculiar organizational structure, and the technical details of its ships, the lordly East Indiamen. She also covers the lesser-known aspects of the enterprise, such as the company's private navy, and its contribution to the development of early steam navigation. Thoroughly researched, generously...

- Within the casual dining segment, the O'Charley's concept has about 37% of its store base exposed to these hardest hit states. Thirty percent of LongHorn Steakhouse's restaurants are located in these states while Steak n Shake and Ruby Tuesday both have about 20% exposure.
- Including yesterday's performance, the Chinese market has declined -52% from its October 2007 peak and inflation is accelerating. YUM's senior management expects that commodity inflation (including higher chicken costs) will continue into the first half of 2008 and moderate later in the year in Mainland China. It appears that the company's expectations will need to be adjusted in the coming months.
- China is a black hole to most Americans and my guess is that most American companies don't properly risk adjust returns for the capital put into China - just ask Caterpillar Inc. (CAT). Today, CAT learned a big lesson about doing business in China! A story ran on the Dow Jones news wire that said the Xuzhou Construction Machinery Group is going to exit its JV with Caterpillar. President Wang Min is quoted as saying the company plans to sell its 15.87% stake in Caterpillar Xuzhou and set up its own excavation machinery unit. CAT is scrambling to try to figure out how to continue to cooperate with the Chinese company.
- We bring this up because YUM's partners in China are essentially state-owned enterprises. Despite having a majority ownership position, YUM historically has not consolidated any entity in China, instead accounting for the unconsolidated affiliate using the equity method of accounting. More disclosure?
Casual dining margins will continue to feel the pain of rising commodity costs and a weakened top-line, but driving transaction growth at the cost of margins is not sustainable. CAKE's CFO Michael Dixon recently highlighted this very point, saying We believe these types of promotions can have some short-term sale benefits, but usually at the expense of margins. More importantly, they can potentially have a long-term negative impact on a brand.
the macro show
what smart investors watch to win
Hosted by Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough at 9:00am ET, this special online broadcast offers smart investors and traders of all stripes the sharpest insights and clearest market analysis available on Wall Street.
- European exposure is clearly something to consider given the hiatus we're seeing in the Euro's climb vs. the Dollar. But where I think it gets interesting is when we look at the change in Europe as a percent of total sales over the same time period we saw the massive 40% FX swing. On top of that, we can look at how the company's margin structure changed.
- While some company-specific drivers need to be considered, it's impossible to ignore such a massive rise in European sales in tandem with incremental margin improvement at select companies. These include GES, WRC and SKX (they just happen to be my least favorite names now - for other reasons as well).
- The best positioned companies (or the least poorly positioned) include those that have had an increase in Euro as a percent of total yet have still had margins down. These companies are not without some fleas, but the analysis shows how they have upped investment levels when faced with company-specific challenges or global growth opportunities. These include LIZ, RL, TBL and ZQK. With these companies, I think we're at a point where we will either 1) harvest investment spending, or 2) cut free up invested cash that is not yielding appropriate returns. In other words, margins should still go up regardless of which way the Euro goes.
That said, as with all brands, I keep a close eye on every little data point I find. The chart below caught my eye. The good news is that the year/year change in average selling price is up dramatically in Guess' US wholesale business. This has been the case since about mid-2007 based on my math. The more interesting point is that the yy change in sell-thru rate has been negative in 4 of the 5 past quarters to the tune of 25%.
Bulls will point out that there's a lot more to the GES story than US wholesale. At less than 25% of cash flow, they're right. But for a well-loved, high-multiple name that has been a HUGE play on the weakening dollar, these are data points I simply cannot gloss over.

Battle of the Batteries: Disposable vs. Rechargeable
As the world becomes more gadget oriented, batteries are a fact of life for many people in the U.S. Individuals and families interested in leading greener lives will eventually ask the question of whether or not rechargeable batteries are really a better choice for the planet than traditional disposable batteries.
Recycling Wood
Recycling wood is a great way to keep wood products out of landfills, breathe new life into old items, and help reduce deforestation rates around the world. All of these things add up to big benefits for the planet. More importantly, they can help families feel better about their own building projects as they are doing their part to reduce, reuse, and recycle wood, a resource that is precious for this planet.
How to Know if Produce in Your Supermarket is Really Organic
The problem with produce, at least when it comes to ensuring the product is truly organic, is that it often comes unpackaged and open. In supermarkets it is easily placed into the wrong bin. Since an apple looks like an apple, whether it's organic or not, it can be a little difficult to determine which apple is organic and which one was grown conventionally – meaning that pesticides were used in the growing of the apple or which apples are genetically modified.
Shopping Without Plastic Bags
Plastic bags. They're unsightly and they're everywhere. And, when it comes to the planet, they can be downright deadly. The University of Florida reports that "Nearly 200 different species of sea life including whales, dolphins, seals, and turtles die due to plastic bags." Many from ingesting them as food. Sadly, by 2050, nearly every seabird will be ingesting plastic.

Libraries: No Longer Just for Books, and They're Becoming More Green
Times are changing fast, and today's libraries are evolving to keep up with today's thoroughly modern world. Once upon a time, libraries were filled with dusty tomes of knowledge, modern mysteries, and portals to new worlds past and present. Modern technology allows people the opportunity to carry thousands of books around in their pockets via smartphone apps. But that hasn't quite made libraries obsolete. In fact, today's libraries have more to offer than mere knowledge. Believe it or not, much of what today's libraries offer makes them some of the greenest places in large and small cities throughout the country.

Je voulais vous informer que nous avons pu envoyer un virement de 35 euros a Chi Oanh hier. Le systeme de mandat est donc rapide et fiable.
Chi Oanh est tres touchee mais ne parle ni francais ni anglais...et n a pas internet. Elle vous remercie par le biais du blog. Je pense que le soutien financier a son importance, mais ce qui la touche le plus, c est de voir que des gens, inconnus qui plus est, peuvent se sentir concernes, et l aider. Elle a du mal a le comprendre, etant donne qu au Vietnam personne ne la soutient...(ma cousine Phuong me dit que maintenant a la fac on leur apprend a ne plus craindre les personnes seropositives).
Cependant j aimerais lui envoyer une photo de chaque personne ayant participe a ces dons... (vous etes une trentaine environ).
Aussi j aimerais, si vous le souhaitez, que vous m envoyiez soit une photo de vous, soit, si vous tenez a rester anonyme, une photo de l endroit ou vous vivez. Merci de m envoyer ceci par email avec comme sujet "photo pour Oanh". c est plus facile pour moi, plutot que de chercher dans mes archives... Si vous pouvez le faire assez rapidement, j imprimerai tout ca a mon retour et j enverrai par la poste.
Ce peut etre aussi un dessin scanne, un poeme...car je sais que certains de mes amis preferent s exprimer ainsi :)

Wow! it seems like you have had a very unique experience. Im very glad to hear from you and for you to tell me honestly how things have been, but it makes me sad to hear some of these things. Im glad you told me though. These things; this is real life, people hurting and being rejected. It is sad. I hate that you ended up being treated badly too but glad you were strong in not letting those things take over you.
This is something I also learned more about; that the world can be a very harsh place and the people in it can be very harsh to one another. This is why I went on the trip that I did; the trip I was on when I met you on the bus. We were on this trip to show people love who may not be loved by anyone else, because Jesus loves them so much and we wanted them to know that they are not alone, that they are loved. Like your friend Chi Oanh who is made fun of by the community for something that she can not change about herself. She didn't ask to have HIV, but she does and now she has to live with HIV. So why would other people laugh at her for that? If anything, it seems like people should have sympathy for her.
People can be very mean and hateful, as you know, but I believe that Jesus loves these people so much! And not only the people who are treated badly, but also the people who are being hateful. Even Ong Kin, he may be a very hateful and selfish man, but there is something wrong with him. Something has made him that way, something has influenced him and created that hate inside of him. Maybe its the god he meditates on or some other evil influence. But Jesus loves him too. Jesus does not love what he does or how he treats people, but loves him because he is not beyond changing.
I don't know if I can explain this to you very well but I think you can understand it because you seem to have compassion and to love these people yourself. Like the way that you didn't care about what people said about you for spending time with Chi Oanh. You showed her love when no one else would, and maybe even at an expense of yourself. And the way that you are giving your money to help her; these things are very much like Jesus' character. I think you know and understand what I mean.
I will pray for your friends, but Vinh, you can also pray. It is very simple. I know it will sound very crazy but I think you will be surprised at what you find if you try.
You can just start talking to Jesus as if he is there in the room with you. it doesn't have to be out loud, it can be quiet, like talking in your head, but you are talking to Jesus. You can start asking him for things you want to see, like for Chi Oanh to be comforted, or for her to be provided for, or even for her to be healed! You can ask that Jesus would change Ong Kin's heart, for evil not to be there. And you can talk to him about personal things in your own life if you want. He will be listening.
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I hope you are doing better now that you are back home.
your friend,

Although they are called 'clear quartz'... they range from crystal clear stone through to milky or cloudy, almost opaque crystals.

The dominant mineral in this stone is silicon... and you will find them on every continent on earth.

The Believing Comes FirstNo, I'm not giving up YA and turning into a motivational writer/speaker. But I want to take a second of your time to either remind you (or tell you for the first time?) all of your life becomes miraculously more flow like (see why I'm not a motivational speaker–flow like?) when you can get yourself into a positive mental space.
Did that statement annoy you? Make you angry?
Did it make you feel like I was implying you are to a great degree responsible for the energy you put out into this world and thus the energy you attract into your life? Like that crazy negative boss that sends insanity making, emergency sounding emails with no less than eleven different "MUST NOWS" embedded in them.
Well good, because that's IS what I meant. (Not the "angry" part so much–more the personally responsible stuff. In fact if you are feeling a ton of anger you might as well erect a brick wall to ward off all the lovely wishes you do have in life. Ever notice how lovely things rarely happen to perpetually angry people?)
Ten years ago, I was no where near being an author.
Several years ago, I wanted to write a book. It didn't happen until I believed I could write a book.
A few years ago, I wanted to find an agent. It didn't happen until I believed I was a good enough writer to get one.
Last year, I wanted a publisher to publish my book. It didn't happen until I KNEW my book was ready enough for someone to want it.
This year, I still want some things. But I've learned a few tricks and now I believe FIRST and then watch for signs that my things are on the way.
Right now, think of the one thing you want most in this world. Maybe to be a writer? An agented writer? A published writer? A New York Times Bestselling writer? A veterinarian?–>>(vets, you might want a different blog, just saying.) Now, do you already feel that way? Be honest. Do you feel like you ALREADY ACCOMPLISHED the thing you want. No? Can you at least imagine already being there?
Because you need to. You need to be able to see it, feel it, believe it. You need to have the confidence that you belong to that accomplishment–first. Yes, I mean before there are any real signs that what you're swimming towards may even be on the horizon. Then, once you manage to grab a hold of that feeling, you have to hang on to it. ALWAYS. Never drop it. Never doubt it. Never stop believing in yourself and you'll be half way there.
The next half of the way involves taking the steps necessary towards that image you're holding onto. Start doing the things, the activities that the image of accomplished you would have to do.
Write (most important thing!!)
Find a critique partner
Attend a conference
Build a website
Start a blog (or use the one you have 🙂
Join Twitter–and tweet
Start calling yourself a writer (or, *gasp* an author) OUT LOUD and don't cringe when you say it
Order business cards
Apply to vet school (again, I'm sure there are some vet blogs out there.)
Whatever you can that moves you into that sense of ALREADY being there.
Now stop reading this blog and go write that book!
16 Responses to The Believing Comes First
I feel like you're channeling my thoughts lately! This is so true, and it's something I want to raise my girls to know–you must believe you can do something and then take steps that put you in the right position to get there. Motivation, belief, hard work, opportunity, and a little (or sometimes a lot, in the case of publishing) luck can go miles in making your dreams/passions come to fruition 🙂
Jess, they must be pumping positive juju into the Colorado water supply. Yes, I'm totally with you on the kid thing too. I didn't really get this message growing up, and it took me kind of awhile to understand it as an adult…I'm still working to hang on to it ALL the time. But I want both of my kids to always know: point your boat in the direction you wish to go, believe you can get there, and row like hell.
Whew, I really needed this today! Especially this part – "But I've learned a few tricks and now I believe FIRST and then watch for signs that my things are on the way." It's the kind of thing I already know, deep down, but sometimes it gets buried beneath other stuff. Thanks for the reminder! 🙂
Madeline, I have to remind myself everyday 🙂 but it keeps my on the tracks. Thanks for stopping by!
It is about having a vision, believing in the ability of that vision to happen, and then doing the work– knocking on doors, saying yes to opportunities, ignoring the insecurity and trying. It's also a little bit about luck and timing. Wonderful motivation.
Julie "ignoring the insecurity"–YES.
Lovely post, Rebecca. Spoken from someone with experience! You're doing great.
Thanks Emily!!
Flowlike. I liket. Kind of sequential.
I will use it more. 🙂
Great advise-working on my positive flow-like energy:) I can now call myself a writer, but I haven't attempted author yet.
First, say the word quietly to yourself, maybe in the bathroom with the door closed. Then move to your kitchen and say it, backyard, front yard, you get the picture. Then say it to strangers you'll never, ever see again when they ask, "What do you do?"
Before you know it, you'll be introducing yourself all over town! 🙂
So true! Now, if only I can hold that thought.
It can be a slippery sucker.
This is a really great post! You have really great advice to offer.

Upottery is a pretty village, situated in the heart of the Blackdown Hills. The surrounding area has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offers excellent opportunities for bird watching, riverside walks and spotting wildlife. The village takes its name from the River Otter which runs a stone's throw from the village and also lends its name to a local beer. Upottery won the 'Best Kept Village in Devon' in 2006 and has maintained the standards that won it that title. Thirteen miles away, you can find the fossil beaches of Lyme Regis and Charmouth, part of the West Country's Jurassic Coast. The town of Honiton is just five miles away, whilst the Cathedral City of Exeter is a 20-minute drive. Exeter has all the amenities you would expect from any city, including a fantastic shopping centre and a broad range of bars and restaurants to choose from. Exeter also shows evidence of its Roman origins, sporting Roman walls throughout.
Devon, with its quiet country lanes, patchwork of lush green fields and sleepy villages is not to be missed. Stately home lovers will be spoiled and why not finish with a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea?

Car aficionados appreciate the a variety of special features built into each Chrysler, and understand that only the highest quality repair Voyager parts will suffice when repairs are needed. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to all the cars, trucks, and SUVs these days. Obviously, you bought your Voyager because you understood you would be getting strength and a dash of luxury both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV. Anyone who drives a Chrysler knows that when it comes to maintaining their automobile only the absolute best replacement parts will do.
Engines need to keep cool if they are to maintain operational status. That's why your Chrysler Voyager engine has a system of radiator and coolant hoses connecting its vital cooling components. The radiator hoses under your hood connect the radiator to the water pump and to the engine block, while other coolant hoses direct coolant through or past the thermostat housing, heater core, and the coolant reservoir. If a Chrysler Voyager radiator or coolant hose springs a leak, then coolant pressure will drop and it could boil; leading to engine failure.
When your Chrysler needs a top quality replacement Coolant & Radiator Hose, there's no need to go somewhere besides the authority, Car Parts Discount. Given all the trouble that can be involved with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the first place you go to make buying it easy. Get your Voyager back on the road with the best new or rebuilt parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Need 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000 Chrysler Voyager Coolant & Radiator Hose parts? We've got them right here.

The Gaggia Platinum Vogue model is an expensive, mid-grade fully automatic Espresso machine. The machine is more specifically designed for personal consumer use, meaning more home-based appliance but that is not to say however that the device can't be used commercially for a small business. The body design is composed of a durable ABS plastic and is encased in a stainless steel which surrounds the entire exterior; the exterior is then topped off with a professional titanium (silver) color finish.
The Platinum Vogue device can brew Cappucinos, lattes, and tea automatically; and also includes support for an optional milk island accessory. For convenience the device provides a built-in ceramic burr grinder that can physically be altered through menu settings to grind coffee beans medium or coarse depending on user preference. The 8.8 ounce bean hopper catches the beans after being grinded and allows an adjustable amount of 7 to 10-1/2 grams of ground coffee for use. The most advanced feature of the Platinum Vogue is the hassle free control panel; the information is all displayed via the small LCD screen (black and white) and the device alerts users via touch ring sounds. A special integrated Espresso Plus system allows for the adjustment and regulation of beverage strength, intensity and body through a simple turn dial. A special built-in Pannarello steam wand provides superior milk frothing for certain required beverages (thick cappucinos and lattes) and also provides hot water for cocoa, tea or soup.
The Gaggia Platinum Vogue model includes additional features such as a high powered 15 bar pump pressure, a stainless steel lined boiler with rapid steam boiling support for quick beverage preperation, Aqua Prima water filter compatibility, a fully detachable 57 ounce water tank which allows easier cleaning and fillup methods, a passive heated cup warmer, a height adjustable cup tray, and support to brew and prepare two beverages at once. The Platinum Vogue model comes bundled with a few extra accessories such as an Aqua Prima water filter, and a water hardness test strip.

The Fast Fourier Transform: An Introduction to Its Theory and Application
ISBN/ASIN: 013307496X,9780133074963 | 1973 | English | pdf | 304/266 pages | 5.40 Mb
Publisher: Prentice Hall | Author: E. Oran Brigham | Edition: 1st
Here is a new book that identifies and interprets the essential basics of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). It links in a unified presentation the Fourier transform, discrete Fourier transform, FFT, and fundamental applications of the FFT. The FFT is becoming a primary analytical tool in such diverse fields as linear systems, optics, probability theory, quantum physics, antennas, and signal analysis, but there has always been a problem of communicating its fundamentals. Thus the aim of this book is to provide a readable and functional treatment of the FFT and its significant applications. In his Preface the author explains the organization of his topics, "… Every major concept is developed by a three-stage sequential process. First, the concept is introduced by an intuitive development which is usually pictorial and nature. Second, a non-sophisticated (but thoroughly sound) mathematical treatment is developed to support the intuitive arguments. The third stage consists of practical examples designed to review and expand the concept being discussed. It is felt that this three-step procedure gives meaning as well as mathematical substance to the basic properties of the FFT. — from book's dustjacket

Sanya Travel Course
Exploring Sanya
Sanya is located in the very south of China, on the edge of the island of Hainan. With its long white sandy beaches, hordes of sun lovers enjoying snorkeling and jet-skiing and a growing number of high-rise five-star hotels, it's little wonder that Sanya has been nicknamed 'Hawaii in China'.
Sanya is one of the rare parts of China that does not experience cold weather in the winter. It is not unusual for temperatures to reach 30°C, even in the middle of January, and so this makes it a very handy getaway for Chinese and Russian travelers in search of a winter break. During Chinese New Year, the place is absolutely packed.
Accommodations in Sanya
There is a range of options for all travelers. The most popular hotel in Sanya is the Sanya Tujia Vacation Rentals-Yalong Bay, which has been booked 5 times from our Hotels.com verified guests. Our guests also highly recommended Sanya Luhuitou Guesthouse and Resort in Sanya as it has been reserved 5 times.
Sightseeing in Sanya
This is one of the Sanya region's more isolated beaches. It is too far to be reached on foot but there are many private buses and taxis that ply the route. Yalong Bay is popular for water sports such as jet-skiing and windsurfing swimmers and sunbathers tend to go elsewhere.
This is a huge beach that curves around for over 25kms but because it is the main point of entry for the commercial and industrial shipping traffic to the city, the quality of the water here is poor. Swimmers usually go elsewhere, but diners and bar-hoppers make this part of Sanya their first stop.
Transportation in Sanya
Sanya International Airport (SYX) is located about 25km west of downtown Sanya and shuttle buses run during flight traffic times (charges apply). Alternatively, taxis or hire cars follow the G225 expressway direct to the city.
In Sanya, public buses run all the major tourist routes. Bus lines 2 and 4 move people between downtown Sanya and the beach at Dadonghai at regular intervals. One-way tickets are extremely cheap and tickets on buses that serve further destinations and pleasant beaches are a little more, naturally.
Taxis are metered but prices can be negotiated, especially if longer distances, out of the way locations or wait for pick up apply. Motorcycle rental is cheap and there are many places to organize a rental. Inexperienced riders are strongly cautioned however about the state of the roads in this part of China. Driving methods are ad-hoc to say the least and accidents are unfortunately common.

Norwegian Dawn - Bahamas: Norwegian Dawn Cruise Review by Rhonda
Overall Member Rating
Norwegian Dawn - Bahamas
Destination: Bahamas
Embarkation: New York (Manhattan)
This was a honeymoon cruise and my husband was a first time cruiser. Neither of us had ever been to NYC so that alone was a great treat. Flying in from Utah we were at the dock several hours early, in fact the ship hadn't even pulled in from its previous embarkation. The crew at the dock was amazing! They took our bags and stored them for us so that we could catch some sightseeing before boarding the ship. They were extremely helpful. The whole process of getting on and off the ship was painless.
The food was wonderful, the freestyle cruising is certainly the way to cruise. We did miss the private island port due to rough water but we didn't mind. We found plenty to do onboard to keep us busy. Both stops in Florida were great, in Miami take the bar-hoping tour, the tour guide is a blast. More
We had an inside-cabin which was small but the bathroom was huge compared to other cruise lines. The stewards were excellent, very friendly and eager to help.
It's a beautiful ship, it will be hard to top! Less

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.

Grinning Cat, I like the quote about each new kitten becoming it's own cat.
To my friends who have lost their Mollys this week, my sincere sympathies. I know how much it hurts....been there, done that more times than I can count.
To Grinning Cat: that is such a sweet quote. I must be more than 50 cats old by now; my parents had cats for 10 years before they had me, and we have have always had cats ever since then. A lot of them were "dumped" at our house when it was still safe to let them roam outside (and every effing neighbor blamed US for any cat damage that they found in their yards, as if we were the only cat fans for miles....they even blamed us for the free-roaming dogs that buried bones in their flower beds....)
We stopped letting our cats go outside when the greedy developers started building ticky-tacky houses up in the hills and destroying coyote and mountain lion territory back in the 1980s.
Joan, it's good to see the Swedish language expanding with a gender-neutral pronoun, that's a more natural extension than "they" for "she/he" in English.
A commenter on the 2012 article about divided opinions on the pronoun noted: "Well, like it or not, it's apparently taking hold. The other day two separate Swedish friends of mine both used 'hen' in normal conversation."
Mindy, I'm also sorry to hear about Molly dying! (And then having to deal with the "Rainbow Bridge" nonsense.)
I think Irving Townsend's quote about "Another cat? Perhaps..." could apply to dogs just as well!
"Another cat? Perhaps.
For love there is also a season; its seeds must be resown.
But a family cat is not replaceable like a worn out coat or a set of tires.
Each new kitten becomes its own cat, and none is repeated.
I am four cats old, measuring out my life in friends that have succeeded but not replaced one another."
Well, this makes good sense to me. An end to him/her!
Mindy, have a great lunch!
It's so nice not to have to hear someone say "doggy heaven", etc. I did check out the dogs at the animal shelter (remember when we used to call it the "dog pound"?). I think I found one I like. More later.
Joan, isn't "googling" something great?! (Ray Rice)
Brent, thanks. It was nice to read you're doing well after a rough year. Keep you spirits up.

With domestic automakers pulling back on rental fleet sales and lower overall light-duty sales projected, the car rental industry will have to adjust.
In an autonomous vehicle environment, the business model will change, but fleet management will be more important than it is today.
As new forms of mobility take flight, the borders with traditional car rental are starting to erode.

Harris to strong safety; Manning likely done with Bears
With the Bears set to take the practice field Saturday in Bourbonnais, reports state that Chris Harris has been moved to strong safety, where Danieal Manning played all last year. That could be the precursor to the Bears moving on without Manning.
Manning played well in that role after bouncing around in four different defensive positions — free safety, cornerback, nickel back, strong safety — in his five years with the team. But despite how he played, Manning's skill set was more suited for free safety and Harris is a natural strong safety.
Should the Bears not re-sign Manning, second-year safety Major Wright would figure to get the first shot at becoming the starting free safety. Craig Steltz and rookie Chris Conte are also in the mix.

Phuket Gazette - December 28, 2011 | 10:52 AM
PHUKET: Though only some divers know all the words to the Twelve Days of Christmas, every diver has heard or knows by heart a couple horror stories of "getting the bends".
From our training and bar room chat we get the the picture of a panicking diver disregarding protocol and bolting for the surface. As they shoot towards fresh air, the nitrogen accumulated in their tissue during the dive turns into rapidly expanding bubbles, possibly headed straight for the brain.
Those scenarios are extraordinarily rare, and though the exact causes of decompression illness (DCI), also known as "the bends", and the formation of nitrogen bubbles isn't completely understood, the cure, a treatment in a hyperbaric chamber, is right here in Phuket, but that's really not the place to spend your holidays.
"It's not so much [about] messing up," said Patrick Schindler, Operations Co-coordinator for the hyperbaric chamber at Phuket International Hospital.
"People say, You can't be bent' you followed your computer, followed your tables; your dive was good.' That doesn't matter so much," Patrick explained.
Each person is different and without researchers getting proper funding it's not possible to fully understand why bubbles develop in some individuals and not others, or why some people who do develop bubbles have symptoms and some don't.
Many dive professionals have only a superficial understanding of DCI, due to its rarity, yet they are expected to teach it to the members of the dive community. This is one of the reasons Patrick offers his time to educate them and the general public about DCI and hyperbaric chamber procedures. The next five day seminar will be held in either April or May.
The hyperbaric chamber at Phuket International Hospital is only one of four chambers in Phuket, serving the entire west coast of Thailand. What the white-WWII-submarine looking contraption, or more precisely, pressure vessel for human occupancy, does is increase the air pressure around a person while they breathe 100 per cent oxygen. This increases the amount of oxygen that can be absorbed by the body, which helps eliminate the nitrogen in the patient's system.
Most DCI cases that are handled at the Phuket International Hospital are the less serious ones. Sometimes people show up a couple days after diving and have lost sensation in their pinky finger or are suffering from persistent joint pain, one of the many places bubbles can accumulate.
"Denial is the biggest issue for all illnesses. People just go back to whatever island they were on and come to Phuket the next day or even later," Patrick said.
People make up excuses for skin rashes and many of the symptoms of DCI. They often explain the rashes as unnoticed encounters with jellyfish or a sudden allergic reaction to neoprene. Avoiding the obvious fact that the rashes have developed only on their abdomen or hips, which were covered by the wetsuit as well as other parts of their bodies and thus unlikely to come into contact with marine stingers.
Many of these symptoms of DCI can disappear in a couple of hours or over-night, often allowing divers to justify getting back in the water the next day, instead of following up on the issue by consulting the Sub-aquatic Safety Service (SSS) Re-compression Chamber Network or a doctor who fully understands DCI and its symptoms.
"The next day, feeling better they return to their holiday diving. First dive okay, second dive okay and then, bang! They get three times worse," explained Patrick.
Despite being on a stunningly beautiful island for the holiday season and participating in an activity with a reasonable safety record, divers shouldn't neglect to call the SSS Re-compression Chamber Network on +66 810 819000 if they have any concerns or show any signs of DCI.

Advanced Gets LCD Outdoors with AQUiVO Weatherproof Screens
With summer well underway and people spending much more of their time outdoors, the timing of a new innovative technology launch at Advanced will be a hit with any business looking to push the boundaries of where it displays its media and entertainment.
Don't let the environment constrain your displays
In the past, video displays have largely been confined to dry, indoor areas due to problems with ambient light and fears that inclement weather or dust build-up could damage the equipment.
HD picture quality outdoors, even in the rain
AQUiVO is a revolutionary new range of weather resistant LCD screens, specifically designed for use outdoors and in wet, humid or dusty environments. These unique screens offer the latest HD picture quality, with an IP56 all-weather protection rating for use in beer gardens, bathrooms, spa areas, hospitality areas and terraces.
Defense against water, dust, humidity and contact
IP stands for Ingress Protection, the level of rating given to a screen in its defense against water, dust and humidity and suitability for use outside. Dust is prevented from entering in any amount that is harmful to the working of the screen, and the screen is completely protected against contact. AQUiVO screens are protected against water from heavy seas or projected in powerful jets, and these will not enter the enclosure in harmful quantities.
Crystal clear images even in bright sunlight
Every screen in the range has a fully sealed, lightweight aluminum frame and a toughened glass front, finished with an anti reflective coating which means they can display excellent quality pictures even in bright sunlight.
Limitless display solutions
Come rain or shine, humidity or dust, the state of the art LCD panels ensure superb brightness, contrast and colour quality. This makes these screens the first LCDs suitable for use on patios, for sporting events, in spas, theme parks, on public transport and at golf courses, to name but a few.
The largest screen of its kind
The screens are currently available in 3 sizes including 55″, the largest screen of its type on the market, with either HD Ready or Full HD technology resolution.
For more information on the groundbreaking range of AQUiVO screens, contact us at 905-502-1110 or visit http://www.apgdisplays.com/products/aquivo/.
