Jak found her sitting on the beach, high enough so that she wouldnâ ™t get wet, but low enough so that the waves could just barely touch her toes. This was the spot Erin came to think. Erin was holding her stone in her hands, absentmindedly running her thumb over it while she looked at the waves, crashing onto the beach. Jak sat down next to her. He put his arm around her shoulders, but this time Erin didnâ ™t shy away as she normally would. She rested her head in the crook of his neck, crying silently, with tears running down her face, smearing her mascara. Jak rubbed her shoulder comfortingly. He reached for her hand, grasping it, feeling her heartbeat. He stroked the back of her hand with his thumb. He then leaned in closer, re...... - 2008-11-18

» F-15's light up the sky over PDX 1/16

A private pilot last night made a casual threat that he was going to crash his small plane into a Portland high rise at 6:45pm last night. Starting at 7pm, we had 4 F-15 Strike Eagles patrolling the skies over portland with an offensive stance of the like the I have never seen. They were doing circles around downtown, buzzing my NW neighborhood several times, setting off EVERY car alarm on the ground, and shaking everything. It was a scary moment, since those of us on the ground did not know what was going on, yet we had fighter jets with full afterburners on flying very low. PDX was on the verge of closing and diverting all flights at 7:15pm, but an FAA controller from SeaTac helped downplay the situation, saying the private plane wa...... - 2008-11-18

» NEWS: Pilots Mistake Taxiway For Runway At SEA

Considering that SEA is homebase for many posters here and is the headquarters of Alaska Airlines, I thought the following article may be of general interest. In case you missed the article, it was published yesterday in the Seattle Times: Pilots mistake taxiway for runway at Sea-Tac Mark Coates, manager of operations at Sea-Tac Airport, thinks steps such as installation of this 25-foot-by-25-foot reflective marker at the north end of Taxiway Tango have greatly alleviated safety concerns. To the left of the taxiway are runways 16 Left and 16 Right. When Roger Seher flew a 37-seat Air Canada Jazz turboprop into Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in January 2004, he was aware of the "Taxiway Tango" problem. He'd flown int...... - 2008-11-18

» Upgrades for Gold

Hi: I want to know the best way to upgrade is to call 72 hours ahead for gold. But the problem is when is "exactly" 72 hours? Is there a way to find out Canadian's system time? Do they release upgrade seats at exactly 72 hours prior to departure time? Thanks for the answers.It's called testing. I've found on other airlines that as long as you are 3 days before, i.e anytime after midnight, then they upgrade. Don't know how sticky CP is. Generally they look at departure date and subtract 3 days regardless of time, so for the 25th anytime on 22nd should be OK. The best way is to try it (just after midnight)--what have you got to lose? I have even phoned an eastern call center from the west after it has turned midnight in the east. N...... - 2008-11-18

As suggested by B1 (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum5/HTML/009093.html), I thought I'd post my questions, perhaps someone would be willing to ask them for me. 1) When questioned about the new booking fee, why are Aeroplan agents telling callers that other airlines have the same booking fee when this is not the case? Other North American airlines only require fees for "express redemptions" (such as 10 days prior to departure)? 2) Why has there been no mention of one-way awards in the Aeroplan 2003 Elite Benefit Guide or at Aeroplan.com? 3) Does Aeroplan realize that its program has become uncompetitive with ot...... - 2008-11-18

I just got this offer (as did you all, I'm sure). It looks to me like at U$0.02 per airline point, the package is effectively free, which is a decent deal. Subscription costs U$60, nets 2500 Starpoints. One Starpoint is worth 1.25 airline points (if you take the 20K->25K transfer) so that's 3125 airline points or U$62.50 worth of points.

Ok, my 12 month old has been spiking a fever. When it reached 103 F, the doctor had me take her in. They did blood work and found out that she has some kind of viral infection, but they don't know y or what. They said that if she continues to keep getting fevers like this over the next 48 hours, (whether the fevers go down with medicine or not) with out any other symptoms showing up, they will catheterize her, take chest x rays, do more blood work up, and other stuff. So, my question is, will doing this stuff require hospitalization or can they just do that in a doctors office and then take the catheter out after they get a urine sample.

I have to attend a wedding in Cartagena in January 2008, but before that I have to go to Barbados. Now I've been to Barbados several times and that's no problem. My problem is how to get to Cartagena, Colombia from Barbados in the most economic and practical manner. The destinations I want to go from Toronto are: Barbados, Colombia, Toronto. So I have no problems flying from Halifax > Toronto > Barbados, but what after that? Would it be possible to take a boat ride to Venezuela, then take a plane from Venezuela (I'm assuming one of the islands) to Cartagena? Even if it's possible, would it be safe and practical (I speak little spanish, but have travelled to many destinations so I'm not a n00b). Or would I have to go from Barbados all ...... - 2008-11-18

» Le Gourmet de Ternes

Unfortunately I have very little operational information about this restaurant, but it was so incredibly good that I needed to post. To get there... take the Metro (#2) to the Ternes stop . Once outside the metro, cross the street toward the Hippopotamus restaurant. Walk around the restaurant to the left. About halfway down the block there will be a restaurant with a green striped awning. This was another one of my group dining experiences in Paris. It ended up being $50 per person including lots and lots of wine. For the starter..they brought out platters and bowls of food. Marinated and steamed veggies, pate, salami,several types of salads, bread, potatos, french fries, lentils, and a few things I didnt recognize. The main course wa...... - 2008-11-18

» Who's your favorite band?

Details explaining why that band is your favorite are appreciated. NO JONAS BROTHERS.lol... Aerosmith is my favorite band. Every song that I have ever heard them play I have liked or loved! They have inspired many artists over the years. Their style ranges from rock to rhythm blues to heavy metal, pop, and glam. I find Steven Tyler and Joe Perry have amazing voices, and not to mention they are both HOT, the band puts on an amazing show, they are still coming out with hit after hit, and they are America's Greatest Rock and Roll Band!! at least I think so :) From Wikipedia: Aerosmith is the bestselling American hard rock band of all time, having sold 150 million albums worldwide, including 66.5 million albums in the United St...... - 2008-11-18

» HDV editing

I am making the swith to HDV this year. I was wondering what software people are using to edit this. I will convert to standard Definition for my highlights for now. What I really want is some software so I can capture the High Definition video and export it back out to the camcorder. This way I can make copies of the original video without buying a second HDV camcorder or recorder. I was looking at the minimum requirements for Premiere and other packages, they require over 3Mhz processor for HDV. Is this a solid requirement or a "recomendation"?Unfortunately there isn't a good way to do this as of yet. To do anything with HDV in the major editors you have to get the Cineform codec, which is a third-party plugin that converts the H...... - 2008-11-18

» New CP sale fares

I just saw this on http://www.cdnair.ca/eng/cpi/01discover/index.html and I'm sure it wasn't there earlier today. Cheap fares Vancouver-LA, Calgary-LA, Vancouver-SanFrancisco. YVR-LAX is C$295 for instance. For 1080 miles each way, and no half-points since it's transborder, that's pretty competitive with the websaver point yield on a long domestic flight. Pretty good conditions, too: book by August 24, travel by December 15, minimum Friday night stay for Sun-Fri departures, minimum Saturday night for Saturday departure. Let's see, leave YVR for LAX Friday morning, use a FreeFriday at Westin or Sheraton, fly back Saturday night, 2160 points for C$295 plus tax.

» Who has been to Cuba recently?

I have, how can i be of assistance?Hello Dear Some trips are made because you want to make them; some because you have to make them. My early 2008 week-long trip to Havana was some of both. After so many years living in South Florida, I had to see Cuba for myself. I exercised my constitutional right to travel, bypassing the outrageous travel restrictions imposed by a failed Cuba policy of 46 years. Along with my grown daughter, I went through a third country. I emphasize that what's presented here is simply our own observations during a one-week stay in the capital and two beach excursions. We spent a week in a "casa particular" in old Havana. "Casa particulars" are accommodations in private homes -- an apartment in our case. It...... - 2008-11-18

» Flight Attendant Input Changes Hawaii Service

Service changes coming on the Hawaii routes. Besides some new entrees American has said the following... "Based on Flight Attendant input, the second service will be reduced or eliminated depending upon the length of the flight." I wish American would get input from the PASSENGERS rather than the Flight Attendants for Service reductions!I did not see the info on the service reduction, but the following on the new meal service: ---NEW HAWAII MEAL SERVICE--- First-class and main-cabin meals on flights to Hawaii are being enhanced based on input from flight attendants, local Hawaiian chefs, and from Jonathan Waxman, one of our Chefs' Conclave chefs. In first class, new entrees include sauteed shrimp and scallops with a Hawaiian glaze, pine...... - 2008-11-18

» Bad day at YYZ

Was at YYZ picking up a relative coming in from YYC, was pretty chaotic with delays and cancellations from the freezing rain.I always thought that Torontonians were whiners (not winners, whiners) when complaining about freezing rain. Then, I almost broke my back on my 5 minute walk into work. Global this morning suggested every 400-series highway had at least one major accident due to the freezing rain. Delays were averaging ~1 hour this morning keeping the runways un-frozen and with the extensive de-icing procedures required... Another messy day in YYZ.Several flights to ORD have been cancelled as a result of weather... one interesting thing I did notice: UA 1109 at 15:00 is scheduled to be operated as a 752 -- an unusual UA p...... - 2008-11-18

» A "beforeload" event on forms would be very useful

This event would naturally be on Ext.form.Action, but user code does not normally have access to that - it's a transient object. We could grab the newly instantiated Action object in the Form's beforeaction handler, and add the listener there, but that seems a waste to have to do that every time. So BasicForm needs a "beforeload" event. Why? One very common task is to massage data before the user gets to see it. Format it, cleanse it etc. Even change the input Field types of input Fields in the Form to receive and correctly handle data of different types. So, how about it? The success handler in Ext.form.Action.Load would only have a tiny change: success : function(response){ var result = this.processResponse(response); ...... - 2008-11-18

» Clickmiles GC Problems

I redeamed some clickmiles for $25 gift certificates awhile back and they never came. I am not told that clickmiles discontinued their use of 800 gift certificates.com and so anyone who redeamed for gift certificates in the last month or so and has not received them, will not be getting them. This is from 800 gift certificates customer service even though 2 weeks ago when I enquired, they said that they were just out of inventory. I called clickmiles, 4158367900 and they were very helpful and will put the miles back in my account by tomorrow they said. Two other people I know have the same problem and are attempting to fix it by email.Originally posted by Drflyer: I redeamed some clickmiles for $25 gift certificates awhile back and they ...... - 2008-11-18
