text: 000 FXUS63 KFSD 221708 AFDFSD Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD 1108 AM CST Wed Feb 22 2017 .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) Issued at 441 AM CST Wed Feb 22 2017 There is still time to enjoy one more day of lingering warm weather, although it will not be as warm as Tuesday, and more significant changes are fairly close at hand. A weak wave will be traversing north of the area through mid afternoon, with decent mid-level frontogenesis brushing the northern CWA around KHON toward KBKX. Airmass below remains fairly dry, so at best an isolated sprinkle to shower threat through mid-morning. A weak surface wave will slip past the area later this morning as well, and this will pull a frontal zone southeast across the area with a shift to some gustier northwest winds. Temps aloft remain warm enough through the Missouri river corridor that temps will climb well into the 60s and perhaps to a couple of record highs. To the north toward the highway 14 corridor, likely only reaching the mid 50s, and those temps due to increasing cold advection during the afternoon should actually occur earlier in the day and begin to tail off somewhat as advection outpaces mixing and see an increase in some lower cloudiness as well. The I-90 zone will be in between, with mainly upper 50s to around 60 with a steady to slow fall initiating by early to mid afternoon. The cooler air will begin to slide southward with more forcefulness tonight as the broad entrance of anticyclonic jet streak works across the area as jet core moves into Minnesota. A blanket of lower clouds will drop across the area from the north with strengthening north to northeast low level flow. Cooling overnight will be significant enough that as the developing precipitation in strong frontogenetic zone toward south central South Dakota evolves by late tonight, there should only be a brief period of anything other than snow, and that is only if the wet bulb process is not as efficient as it could be. .LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday) Issued at 441 AM CST Wed Feb 22 2017 Focus for this forecast period in the medium range, as a significant winter storm system impacts the region late this week. Still some spread among the various model solutions, although they do continue to show some convergence toward a common solution, certainly more so than was seen a few days ago. ECMWF remains on the southern end of the solutions, with GFS/Canadian slightly north and fairly similar to each other. NAM remains on the northern fringe, and a bit of an outlier when compared to other deterministic and ensemble solutions. Thursday will begin with strong isentropic lift developing along 295K surface into south central SD, in advance of a strengthening mid-upper level trough sliding east across the Rockies. ECMWF is a little slower to saturate than GFS/Canadian, but all show a rapid uptick in saturation/lift after 18Z Thursday, with precipitation likely throughout the area by late afternoon commute time. Will be some precip type issues at the onset, especially south of I-90 and east of the James River Valley, where midday surface temperatures could be close to 40 degrees. Northern and western portions of the forecast area more likely to see temperatures remain in the lower 30s throughout the day, closer to raw model guidance which seems more representative with anticipated precip development than a blend which includes MOS guidance values. Given rapid increase in lift and saturation, especially in our far west, have bumped the start time of the Winter Storm Watch forward to 18Z Thursday in areas west of the James River. By late Thursday afternoon, strong band of mid level frontogenesis develops across the forecast area, and differences in placement of this seem to most greatly influence northern bias of the NAM QPF and snowfall when compared to other models. GFS/Canadian maintain the strongest mid level front support near or even a little south of the I-90 corridor into early Friday evening, while the NAM lifts this closer to Highway 14. With preference for GFS/Canadian, will keep highest pops/QPF focused along/south of I-90 for Thursday afternoon and evening, though location of the heaviest snowfall will again be impacted low level temperature profiles. Later Thursday night through Friday, generally expect the system to continue strengthening as the upper level and low level low centers shift slowly into western Iowa. Through this time, the ECMWF becomes a bit of an outlier on the fast side, with less strengthening and thus a more progressive shift toward the Mississippi Valley than the GFS/Canadian. Have continued to side more with the slower solutions at this time, which keeps moderate to heavy snowfall across much of the area into Friday morning, and for locations near/east of I-29 through Friday afternoon and possibly into the evening hours. Along with the falling snow, the strengthening system will bring increased northeast-north winds through this period, with a potential for wind gusts of 35-40 mph at times Friday into Friday evening. Given the delayed exit of snowfall and potential for strong winds into the evening hours, have extended the Winter Storm Watch through Friday evening for our MN/IA counties, along with Dakota County, Nebraska. Cannot rule out blizzard conditions developing, especially in open areas Friday, but with lingering uncertainty given the latest ECMWF timing, will stick with Winter Storm Watch for now. The trend toward a stronger/slower system in the latest GFS/Canadian has resulted in higher precipitation totals throughout the area, especially potential snowfall maxima within the highest part of the band, which currently favors a line from south central SD, through Sioux Falls, into southwest MN. Consensus points to a fairly strong potential for snowfall in excess of a foot in these areas. While higher QPF axis is actually farther south, amounts to the southeast of this line will be initially limited by warmer temps and rainfall. Areas to the northwest toward Huron/Brookings are expected to be north of the strongest frontogenetic forcing, which should likewise limit amounts. Snowfall in excess of 6 inches currently looks quite possible, though if mid level forcing is strong enough, could see a sharper cutoff to amounts along the north edge of the heavier band, as has been seen in previous events this season. As with any potent system such as this, though, further refinements will surely be made in the later forecasts. With focus on the medium range winter storm, little change has been made to the forecast through the weekend and early next week. The expected widespread snowfall will surely keep temperatures closer to normal than we`ve seen in recent days. Could see a weak system or two track across the region early-mid next week, though little agreement among the models on timing/location of these waves at this range, so nothing more than chance pops are warranted at this time. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Thursday afternoon) Issued at 1104 AM CST Wed Feb 22 2017 MVFR and IFR ceilings across North Dakota are poised to settle south into the area tonight.

Cyclists chased by an ostrich. The funniest thing you'll see today
For licensing or usage, please contact email@example.com We came down to South Africa for the Cape Argus Tour. It is the biggest cycling event in the world, probably. On Friday, to stretch out the legs we went on pre-race ride [~130km why not?] to the Cape of Good Hope [I love this name!]. The road by the ocean side was quiet and a lille deserted. Suddenly, I spotted a white ostrich on my left, then this beast jumped on the road from the right and started chasing my friends! It was a little scary at first, but then I thought I gonna fell of my bike from laughter. The ostrich didn't have any problem to keep up at 50km/h and apparently they do 70km/h with no sweat. Luckily the creature decided to leave us alone, as we were running out of road. The Cape of Good hope is a dead end way. My guess he wanted to show off in front of his girlfriend, i bet she was very impressed!

Nintendo Wii HomeBrew - Firmware Updater 4.0 Released
Waninkoko has released a homebrew application for the Nintendo Wii that will download and install the new content in the v4.0 System Menu update, but leaves out the new protection which has been added.
Download: Firmware 4.0 Updater
To quote: This application allows you to update the firmware of your console installed only the applications needed for this (IOS, System Menu, channels ...).
As a result, certain characteristics can be maintained as the bug that affects the early versions of IOS stays intact.
ps. I will update the CFW to Rev. 15 and post it today ;)

You need a Custom IOS to be able to install WAD files! The app (WAD Manager) knows how to do but he official system drives does not support the de-installation of WAD files for normal users!Also normal Wii IOS´s does not support delating of tickets or tmds.
There for and some reasons more we need a cIOS
03-30-2009 #5
what are reasons to consider installing system menu 4.0
What would be the reasons to choose to install either the Nintendo 4.0 update or to use the "cleaned" version "tomorrow" ?
The official update is just released and some of the features (support large SD carts) sound nice, but is waiting for a more tested and stable "cleaned" release not advisable?
Off course one needs the update after a while, but is it currently advisable to do, since there are virtually no games who need to update (to my knowledge), unless you are running out of memory card space (4.0 fixes the max, and goes up to 32 GB) and really would like to load games from SDHC.
Ciao, Red

uhmmm... man the whole scene want to have the new FW specially in case of this new features!
Do you really mean what you write?
04-02-2009 #7
cfwprophet, let me confirm with you that once I installed this updater 4.0 by Waninkoko, I still need to install AGAIN the patched version (freethebug?) of IOS60 and IOS61, otherwise all "non-official" channel will only copy to SD and cannot be run/copy back to the wii. Because that's is my case. I remember I get similar update from Tona last time when updating a patch version of IOS50 & IOS 51. But this time is another person. I will keep update and let you guys know if I found the info again.
Therefore, if that's that case, People, be aware the you need another patched version of IOS60 and 61 in order for you to play non-official*cough* channels on SD!

Every one with a litle bit knowledge about Wii know this.Becouse IOS60 will be the system menu IOS and the IOS61 will be the Shop Channels IOS same like for FW 3.4.
And same for if we want to use the cIOS-CORE on FW 4.0.We need a moddet IOS60 with injected cDIP Module to be able to show up the game in the disc channel.

Structural Change of the Production Process and Unemployment Duration in Germany
Based on a Cox Proportional Hazard analysis of German unemployment spells, structural change of the production process is identified as a major explanation for long-term unemployment. Other important covariates capture labor market institutions, macroeconomic stress factors, and individual characteristics. Structural change of the production process has resulted in a shift in labor demand across occupations and skills. For individuals laid off from declining parts of the economy, this implies a devaluation of their human capital. They need to acquire new skills for positions in expanding parts of the economy, or spend a longer time in unemployment searching for the few remaining jobs for which they possess adequate skills.

My main goal right now is to
1. Find out if people will pay for extended services
2. Figure out what people want so that I can prioritize
development efforts
For example, I can offer people 20GB of disk storage for about $5/month.
If someone is paying $5/month and only uses 10GB of disk space, $2.50
can go towards the cost of running the site like adding another server
or something.
I think we're finally breaking even -- hort.net only costs about $140/month
to run now, and Google ads seem to average that roughly. Of course, it
would be nice to be reimbursed the $6K that I paid in to keep the site
running when it was on a more expensive netowrk! :)
And, with the new setup, we finally have the bandwidth and server resources
to do a lot more like personal photo galleries.
Thanks for the ideas about income/shopping and stuff!
P.S. No, I don't want to hear talk about donations, etc. I'm looking
for input on a broader model. Thanks though! :)

MA Counselling
The MA in Counselling provides a thorough grounding in the theory and practice of the person-centred approach. You will also receive training in academic research techniques and have the opportunity to produce an extended piece of research on an area of personal interest.
Course structure
The course begins annually in September.
Year 1 of the course runs from September to June. The first and last weeks of the course are spent in intensive full-time training over five-day periods. The pattern for the remaining 30 weeks of the course will be the equivalent of three days a week in full-time training with two days devoted to counselling placement, individual supervision and personal study.
Year 2 of the course also runs from September to June. The year will start with three two-day sessions. Thereafter, while carrying out an individual research project and writing the dissertation, you will meet regularly with an academic supervisor.
Entry Requirements
Degree Subject: Any Subject
Entry Requirement
Applicants will normally be expected to be graduates (of any discipline), but those with other professional qualifications or who can demonstrate appropriate academic skills will be considered. More importantly, applicants will be expected to have undertaken previous counselling or counselling skills training.
Applicants from the UK should have undertaken or be in the process of undertaking a Certificate in Counselling Skills, ideally in the person-centre approach, and overseas applicants should be able to demonstrate significant experience in a helping role.
Applicants applying for the second year of the MA in Counselling (dissertation only) are expected to have the equivalent of the PG Diploma in Counselling. Applicants without an equivalent qualification will need to study the PG Diploma in Counselling for the first year of the MA programme.
This school offers programs in:
- English

Your instincts are correct: you shouldn't have to add WEB-INF/lib/*.jar to your CLASSPATH.

The Tomcat source (specifically the test cases) is rife with examples of use of Tomcat embedded: any test case that needs a running instance uses the Tomcat class. Look through the build script (specifically, how tests are run) to see what libraries are added to the bootstrap CLASSPATH when launching them. > The issue I'm having is that from what I've gleaned from the web > all I *should* need in my classpath for my main method is my main > class, tomcat-embed-core.jar, tomcat-embed-logging.juli.jar, > tomcat-embed-jasper.jar, and ecj.jar but I'm finding that when > trying to launch my main from the command line I keep having to > append more and more jars from WEB-INF/lib to my classpath to get > it to continue to try and start up because it keeps spitting out > NoClassDefFoundErrors.

Thanks. Well, first, there's no reason to have all the Tomcat JAR files in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory. Put them somewhere else. You might be getting NCDFE because (for example) Tomcat.class != Tomcat.class when the two are loaded by two different ClassLoaders. Take everything out of your webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory that it doesn't use directly or indirectly (i.e. all the Tomcat-specific stuff). So, let's see what the javadoc for Tomcat.java has to say: > * Requirements: * * - all tomcat classes and possibly servlets are > in the classpath. * ( for example all is in one big jar, or in > eclipse CP, or in any other * combination ) Once you've moved the Tomcat .jar files, this should be true. > * - we need one temporary directory for work files I don't see that you've set that up: you need to call Tomcat.setBaseDir(). > * - no config file is required. This class provides methods to * > use if you have a webapp with a web.xml file, but it is * optional > - you can use your own servlets. Do you have your own web.xml file? Probably. If you follow the code of the method you are calling (not sure why you are calling the undocumented method instead of the documented one), you'll see that ultimately, your webapp should be deployed with no default web.xml (the server-wide one) and the ability to load your webapp's WEB-INF/web.xml file. > * There are a variety of 'add' methods to configure servlets and > webapps.

What happens if you move the Tomcat classes outside of your webapp's WEB-INF directory, adjust your CLASSPATH accordingly, and re-launch? Be specific. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+QV/0ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PAx9QCfegBFQDChZN042ujT8X/DJ71z 8MgAn29JSoF3CtJ+SiQgc6nvDXEbxNVp =GGaT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com

For 2015 spring/summer, Barcelona-based menswear designer Boris Bidjan Saberi continues to push forward tailoring with the experimentation of various cuts and fits. Looking to the composition of the human body as inspiration, garments and accessories are interlaced like muscle tissues while textured cotton sits atop mesh and fibrous jerseys, all of which are set against earthy colors in reference to organic structures. Elsewhere, parka jackets feature open shoulders to allow full show of the linen shirts underneath. Leather gilets are paired with elongated vests and rounded out with oiled bock leather sneakers. The latest Boris Bidjan Saberi collection provides another look at the German-Persian designer's sought-after approach to fashion. Look for the 2015 spring/summer collection at select retailers next year.

Did too many of it's readers download a free version of it, hence it's demise?
Noooooooooo! ;__; I've had a subscription for years, farewell old friend.
I did wonder about their longevity after they'd gone through regular staff like they were sweets as most of them went freelance.
Damn, sorry to see them go
I finally got off my arse and cancelled my sub a couple of months ago (the one with Fear 3 on the cover was my last), it's been very poor for ages and changing editors every few issues was never going to help things. It having a six quid price tag really wasn't doing it any favours either.

I always bought PC Zone back in the day. Was much better than PC Gamer.
I still remember the Hill's, Steve and Mark. Steve's Neverquest stuff was great and as was Mark's unconditional love of Football Manager (or Championship Manager, as it was back then).
I even got my EG username from a PC Zone review (Medieval: Total War).
Really sorry to see it go despite having not read since dropping my PC and buying a Xbox.

I think the main reason I used to buy it was for the demo's on the cover disk. Once I got broad band its reason to be dissappeared for me.

Its one of the main reasons I stopped buying PC magazines. When I started being able to download the contents of a cover disc in less time than it takes to walk down the shops and buy the mag, it just seemed pointless.
The weird thing, as you say, is that this was like 7 or 8 years ago.

The German PC mags have started to put full versions of old(ish) games on their cover discs a few years ago. It's often quite recent stuff that got at least half-decent reviews, but I haven't bought any of them in years, either, with the Steam sales and whatnot.
Seeing how newspaper agents here had big stacks of the 3 biggest mags not so long ago, and now it's just a few of each somewhere on a shelf, I can't imagine I am the only one.

I'm with you Red, I always thought PCZone was superior, I even tended to agree with their reviews more. Got both though.
A few years ago I kept getting sent offers to subscribe to PCZ for three issues for a quid. I think I ended up, on and off, getting about a year's worth of mags for four pounds.
Maybe that's what did for them...
I subscribed to PC Zone purely because I'd get a free copy of Chamionship Manager 2. Ending up staying on for around 4 years, then all my favourite writers started to disappear.

I got a subscription for this about twelve years ago for christmas, happily my Dad let it run for about 8 years so that was a pretty cool present. Figured i'd better cancel it when i moved out about 4 years ago.
Loved the cruelty zoo comic by brooker (he wasn't around for long after that one) and the prank phone calls he did. Late on the only things worth reading were by Log, everyone else seemed to be about 17 and just making it up as they went along.
Sign of things to come for print media in general?

"Maldives - A Paradise On Earth" Top 5 Page for this destination Maldives by fashionapple
Maldives Travel Guide: 1,552 reviews and 5,320 photos
I dedicate this page to friendly and helpful people of Maldives who welcome every tourist in their country with beautiful smile.
The Sanskrit word, Maladiv, means a garland of islands. Maldives is just like a string of "pearls" scattered over a carpet that is the deep blue Indian ocean. Maldives consists 1190 tiny islands enclosed within 26 natural atolls. The atolls are formed from coral structures, separated by lagoons.These islands are said to have formed on top of layers of coral that grew over the peaks of a submerged ancient volcanic mountain range in the Indian Ocean.
Only 200 islands are inhabited. Each island is completely encircled by white sandy beaches and coral reefs. All beaches have light and dark blue shades by nature. Here you get a chance to see some of the most incredible underwater life. Coconut palms and various tropical plants grow in abundance on most islands and present a lovely setting. About 90 islands have been dedicated as self-contained tourist resorts with all modern facilities. The guest rooms in most of the resorts are situated at the waterfronts. Hence you will have a private beach where you could relax with all the privacy that you may desire.
Since the reefs that surround the islands are rich with colorful fishes, the waters around the resorts would be ideal for snorkeling and scuba diving. International diving schools are found in most of the resorts. International as well as a la carte menus are available in most of the resorts. A number of resorts employ chefs from Europe and Asia so that the particular tastes of the guests from these regions could be served.
Maldives International airport located on Hulhule Island, 2 km east of Male', is the only international airport in the country. Major international carriers like Singapore Airlines, Emirates and Sri Lankan airlines etc. have regular flights for Maldives. Domestic flights to far away islands and resorts are operated by Island Aviation, Trans Maldivian Airways and Maldivian Air Taxi.
Travel on most of the islands takes just 30 minutes on foot. Bicycles and motorbikes are popular modes of transport in Male' and some other bigger island. Taxis charge Rf. 15 if hired on the road and Rf. 10 if hired via telephone. Dhoni (local motor boats) is the cheapest mode of transportation between islands. Speedboats are much expensive. Tourists are issued 30-day tourist visas on arrival at Male' International airport. They are supposed to fill up the health , arrival and destination cards and submit them to immigration authorities.
Import of pornographic material and alcohol is strictly not allowed but resorts serve alcohol for foreign tourists. Export of sea turtles and black corals is not allowed. Tourism in the Maldives is carefully managed. Tourists can make short-guided day trips to local fishing villages but later they must come back to their resort.
All major credit cards are widely accepted. ATM withdrawal facility for credit cards is available in Male'. Ruffiya is the local currency but US dollar is accepted every where. As per official rate 12.75 Ruffiya = 1 US Dollar. All 100% population is Sunni Muslim. Literacy rate is 98%. Total area of country is just 823 kilometers out of which 99% is sea. Total population of 300,000 is a mixture of Indian, Sinhalese, Arabic, and African influence.
66,000 people live in capital island Male' that has total area of just 1.77 kilometers. Male' is a city of high-rise buildings, government offices and paved roads. Male' is relatively green and pleasant. Office timings are 7.30 am - 2.30 pm in the government sector and generally from 9 to 5 in the private sector. Weekend falls on Friday and Saturday. There is break of 15 minutes five times a day for prayers and at that time all shops are closed.
Maldives is a crime free and safe destination. People are very friendly, hospitable and peace loving by nature. It is very easy to feel comfortable and relaxed with a Maldivian.Women have equal access to education and jobs. They hold key positions in the civil service and the private sector. Tradition is valued though not at the expense of development and modernization.
Maldives won independence from the British in 1965. It has been a republic since 1968 when Maumoon Abdul Gayoom became the President. He has been re-elected five times since then. India and Sri Lanka are the immediate neighboring countries. Major industries are tourism, fisheries, garments, boat building, building construction and handicrafts.
The Maldives' economy has been growing at an annual average of 8%. The GDP per capita currently stands at around US$ 2,300.00. IDD facilities are available on all resorts and card phones are available on all inhabited islands. Dhiraagu, the Maldives Telecommunications Company also provides mobile telephones for daily rental. It is also the Internet service provider.
English is also widely spoken language but national language is Dhivehi. Maldives enjoys typical tropical climate so cotton clothing is recommended. There are two monsoon seasons from May to October and then from November to April. In inhabited islands it is recommended that women wear modest clothing.
Soccer, basket ball, swimming and bodybuilding are popular sports. Maldives is very expensive destination. It is not a place for low budget backpackers. The room rates at resorts usually range between $ 150- 500 per night. Transportation cost to your resort could be even higher than the room rate. Best buys include handicrafts and souvenirs like reed mats, wooden boxes crafts, coral rings, seashells and hand painted traditional shirts.
In a nutshell, Maldives is a land of warm, crystal-clear lagoons, where tropical breezes blow through the coconut palms and the sun sets on a turquoise ocean-a place blessed with an abundance of nature at its finest. Welcome to Paradise, welcome to Maldives!
- Pros:Crystal clear water, lovely beaches, coral reefs and amazing marine life
- Cons:Very expensive destination. Not recommended for budget travelers
- In a nutshell:Maldives is a paradise on earth!

The determinants of international flows of U.S. currency
This paper examines the determinants of cross-border flows of U.S. dollar banknotes, using a new panel data set of bilateral flows between the United States and 103 countries from 1990 to 2007. We show that a gravity model explains international flows of currency as well as it explains international flows of goods and financial assets. We find important roles for market size and transaction costs, consistent with the traditional gravity framework, as well as roles for financial depth, the behavior of the nominal exchange rate, the size of the informal sector, the amount of remittance credits, the degree of competition with the euro, and the history of macroeconomic instability over the previous generation. We find no role for official trade flows of goods. Our results thus confirm several hypotheses about the determinants of using a secondary currency.

Left on Sep 29, 2015 for a stay in Sep 2015
The Ponderosa house is definitely a great place to stay if you have at least 12 or more people staying. There is plenty of space and rooms to accommodate everyone. It has all the amenities that you need for a short or long stay. It is within a 15 min drive from the Casinos, 5 min from the lake and shopping is even closer, yet it is secluded enough to enjoy some piece and quiet. Any rule or requirements were posted in plain site as to not cause any confusion during check-out. The only thing I would recommend if you're traveling with a large group is to car pool, as there is a restriction to the number of cars the rental can occupy only six cars. This is definitely a place I would consider staying at in the future.

Very Good!
4.1/5 -
(11 traveler reviews)
Due to home construction next door to our rental property our experience was less than pleasurable.
We arrived at our rental on Saturday June 18, totally unaware that major home construction was scheduled for Monday through Friday of our Stay. The weekend started out enjoyable. Beginning Monday we were woken up daily at 6:30am to the sounds of hammering, sawing, power tools and even a cement truck. This became progressively louder as the day went on. Wednesday and Thursday where more tolerable.
Monday morning I texted Mike Allan the home owner, about 8:30am and informed him that we hadn't expected construction next door and asked if this was going to continue for the rest of our stay. Mike returned my text later that day about 3:00pm. He texted me that he was having trouble finding the right people to determine what was going on. He asked me forward the name of the construction firm that was posted on the property which I did. I texted him Wednesday morning reminding him that I had not heard from him and that construction was still ongoing. I did not receive a follow up from Mike until Friday morning, the day of our departure. (In all fairness there appears to be a response on Wednesday but not reflected on my phone until Friday, but the damage had been done). While waiting for Mike's response I was able to contact the City of South Lake Tahoe building permits department and found that permits had been filed and that construction had been ongoing since February. The construction supervisor confirmed that construction had been ongoing.
I thought Mike's response slow and reflected a lack of concern. I don't understand how Mike could be unaware of the construction next door when both the permits department and construction supervisor confirmed that construction began in February. Mike could have extended me the courtesy of a heads up. Twenty members of our family drove over 500 miles with high expectations to spend time together on Mr. Allan's property. We had children with us and had to return to the property often. But because of noise and construction we had to close all the windows and keep the children indoors. We found it difficult to take full advantage of the advertised benefits.
A little communication and follow up would have gone a long way to make us feel like we mattered. I performed my due diligence and read previous reviews regarding the property and was convinced that we selected the right property and owner. But this experience has left us with a bitter taste toward the vacation rental experience. Never again!
Not a nice vacation at all
The bad experience started from day 1. I booked our vacation from 12/19~12/24. Two days later the owner called me back and said 12/24 has been booked (something is wrong with the computer system). When we got there, found that two of the showers could not be used because of leaking. The bed sheets have stains even though they have been washed. Roof leaking in the master bedroom. The leaking is the garage is ridiculous. very limited parking spaces in winter (garage could not park a mini-van, you are not allowed to park car besides the street because of snow cleaning). The refund is not returned until 3 weeks later after I called the owner. I booked this property because of its high rating. I am wondering how the previous guests got such good luck while I experienced a lot of bad things. Overall, the property needs major maintainance and it is not recommended. I gave a 2 star because the owner is nice enough to reply all my questions.
No complaints. Loved the property. We will rent it again when we return to Tahoe next September for sure. Very good deal for the price. The owner was very easy to work with & very flexible!
Ponderosa House
Great place to stay for large groups. It has everything you need for short to long stays. Hot tub is a plus. Close to grocery stores. 5 min from lake, 10 min from Casinos. I would only recommend car pooling as parking is limited to 7 vehicles if you're going with a larger group.
Fits all our huge family
My family had our anual fathers day gathering and we ususally get two small houses but this house fit everyone comfortably and the owner was very responsive to our emails. The only thing I did not like was that the back yard was a little dry and had bed time restrictions of 10 pm. Other wise, its close to everything we needed.
We had fun, but...
The house was clean, but the thermostats were a bit broken and we couldn't really tell what temperature the heater was set to. The refrigerator stopped working. We had to put all our food outside... luckily it was still cold out! When Mike finally called me back about it, he told me there was a refrigerator in the garage so then we had to back up all the cars so we could open it and move all our food again. Kind of annoying. Also there was so much chlorine in the hot tub that my husband got some mild chemical burns. The pool table is crooked so the balls just all roll to one part of the table. Not conducive to an actual game, but my 3 year old had fun rolling the balls into the pockets with his hands! Nice location too, very close to a lot of activities.

Weaving Today Publishes 4 Free Table Runner Patterns
Weaving Today publishes a free instructional eBook for making table runners. The free table runner patterns in this free eBook offer beautiful woven table runner patterns and various techniques to learn how to weave a handmade table runner.
The Free eBook can be Downloaded at: http://www.weavingtoday.com/
Free Table Runner Pattern #1
Windowpane Holiday Runner in Log Cabin by Sr. Joan Marie Lovett
A colorful, handwoven table runner brings holiday cheer to a table during the holiday season. Featured in the free eBook is a Christmas table runner pattern. A Christmas table runner also makes a great gift for a friend or loved one. Lovett'
Free Table Runner Pattern #2
Two on Two – Two-Block Log Cabin Runner by Jane Patrick
Log Cabin is a favorite block weave among weavers because of its versatility. Since log cabin is a block weave, designs can be developed through the use of profile drafts. Profile drafts are an excellent way to plan successful table runner designs without preparing actual thread-by-thread drawdowns. Any two-block design can be converted to log cabin. Jane suggests that since the contrast between these two effects is quite subtle, simple designs usually work best for log cabin.
Free Table Runner Pattern #3
Waffle Weave on a Rigid-heddle Loom? Yes, You can! By Kati Reeder Meek
Waffle weave is a fascinating weave structure that looks more difficult than it is. Oftentimes, weavers may be surprised to know that waffle weave on a rigid-heddle loom can be used to make a table runner. The investment of a rigid-heddle loom will be low compared to larger looms, she explains how much fun weaving table runners is using waffle weave in this table runner pattern. Katie Reeder Meek suggests weaving a narrow table runner such as this one or to consider putting on a longer and wider warp for woven placemats. Other colors can be substituted for the accent stripes and/or add more frequent weft stripes.
Free Table Runner Pattern #4
Cool Waters Table Runner by Sandra Doak
The Cool Waters table runner is a simple plain-weave structure and table runner design that can be woven on any loom, including a rigid-heddle loom. In this simple pattern, weavers can space a warp in this way and see infinite possibilities for variations on a theme. By changing the colors, the yarns, the width of the spacing, and combining solid and variegated colors, or any number of these, weavers will keep this idea fresh and exciting. Anyone can learn how to make table runners with this instructional eBook.
The Free eBook can be Downloaded at: http://www.weavingtoday.com/

Warwickshire elections 2013: Conservatives lose control
- 3 May 2013
- From the section Coventry & Warwickshire
The Conservatives have lost overall control of Warwickshire County Council with the Tory leader losing his seat to the Greens.
Alan Farnell received 748 votes, behind Keith Kondakor's 1,032 votes in the Weddington seat in Nuneaton.
Mr Kondakor, a borough councillor for the past year, said the result was "still sinking in".
Labour have gained 10 seats, taking their total to 22. The Conservatives had 38 but now hold only 26.
Mr Farnell said he had lost his seat because "that's democracy, and you can't knock democracy".
He said that one day he might "fight again".
Two Green seats
The Liberal Democrats lost two of their 11 seats.
The Conservatives now hold 26 seats, Labour have 22, the Lib Dems have nine, the Greens have two and there are three independents.
The deputy Conservative leader of Warwickshire Council, Bob Stevens, held his seat in Feldon with 1,335 votes.
The Green party took the Labour seat of Leamington Brunswick, with Jonathan Chilvers receiving 1,156 votes.
These are the first Green Party seats for Warwickshire Council.
On winning his poll, Mr Kondakor said: "There are all sorts of challenges, particularly with the cuts to the county council.
'Inter-party talks'
"The austerity has been dreadful. The county council faces a whole load of dreadful decisions based upon the government continuously cutting the budget to the county council."
Referring to the changes in Weddington, Marcus Jones, Conservative MP for Nuneaton, said: "I think it wasn't totally unexpected.
"I think we expected we were going to have a very difficult time and that's turned out to be the case."
Nadim Zahawi, Stratford's Conservative MP, said it was "disappointing" the council leader had been unseated but added "we will fight on".
Councillor June Tandy, Labour group leader, said she could "categorically rule out any formal coalition" between Labour and any other group but said it was "obvious" there would be inter-party talks.

"BA offers a real alternative to discerning travellers to Morocco," said BA UK and Ireland sales and marketing head Richard Tams.
BA last flew to Marrakech as GB Airways. The services ceased in March 2008 when low-fare carrier easyJet took over GB Airways.
The new route was announced at the opening of World Travel Market in London today. BA also announced today a sale of Gatwick fares to European destinations, starting at £49 one-way.
The £49 one way fare includes taxes, fees and charges and is available to a number of destinations including Amsterdam, Geneva, Rome, Turin and Venice.

Hi Glen
At this point the library has enough funds for awhile. That is why I am
not too crazy about one for it.
I thought robins like the phoneix have no costs, if it could be shown
the expenses I am all for it or like someone suggested this morning it
could be moved to egroups where it is free. Bill Nash moved the whole
pixlist to egroups for everyone.
Clarence suggested a project for research for southern blight or region
one sponsoring a new national spring event test trying to promote new
seedlings and sport competition. These both seem like great projects to
I am sending this to the open so they can keep up to speed on it.

Wanelo, a social shopping site followed by about half of college-age women, seeks to bring a fun, mall-like browsing experience online and to mobile devices, Social Commerce Evangelist Rachel Youens says in an interview. "People like to shop with friends, to walk into a Brookstone and look at the weird massage chairs, or breeze through the Gap to see what's in style. We're trying to bring that same experience to the Internet," she says.

The Kansas City Chiefs plan to retain interim head coach Romeo Crennel, according to league sources.
Chiefs officials could not be reached for comment Saturday, and a timeline for when they'll make an announcement was uncertain.
Crennel has a good relationship with general manager Scott Pioli and is well-liked by his players.
And the Chiefs' Week 15 win over the previously unbeaten Packers and their 2-1 record after Crennel was named interim coach also worked to his favor.
