Help Kids Stay Slim with Raw Food Dessert Recipes

Kids need lots of energy to run, jump, play, and do their schoolwork. And just like adults, it's important for them to keep their body fueled with small meals and snacks throughout the day. The problem: too many snacks can mean too many calories.
Kids and calories are the reason my September newsletter includes a story on nutritious snacks like raw nut butter spread on apple slices and 'ants on a log'...which is nut butter spread on celery with dotted with 'ants' that are actually raisins.

Welcome. Or if you've visited my blog before, welcome back.
I wanted to pick up where I left off in my last post talking about my interview with Best of You Today. Or, perhaps it would be more accurate to say I want to zero in on one aspect of easy raw food recipes that I think is of particular interest to one very active part of the BOYT community and the raw food movement: moms.

< Garen | Redirected from Garen the Might of Demacia/SkinsTrivia
|Skins & Trivia
- Garen was designed by Geeves.
- Garen is voiced by Jamieson Price.
- Garen is one of the three playable champions in the League of Legends Proving Grounds tutorial, alongside Ashe and Ryze.
- Garen's old dance is a choreography by N'Sync in the music video for "Bye Bye Bye". A side by side comparison can be seen here.
- Garen's new dance is a reference to Johnny Bravo's "Monkey Dance". A side by side comparison can be seen here.
- It could also be a reference to Peter Griffin's "Bird is the Word".
- Contrary to popular belief, Garen yells "Demacia!" when using Courage and not during Judgment or Demacian Justice. This is due to many players using the two abilities together often in tandem.
- The phrase "Spin To Win!" originated from how easily some kills were obtained with Judgment. The most famous video about it is an animation of Garen spinning his sword to Ievan Polkka by Loituma.
- When using Judgment, the buff is described as "Garen is spinning to win."
- This is now used as a term to refer all champions' spinning abilities, such as Jax's Counter Strike, Katarina's Death Lotus, Rammus's Powerball, Tryndamere's Spinning Slash, and Wukong's Cyclone.
- Coincidentally, much of Garen's kit is a possible basis for Wukong, mainly due to both characters having:
- A "Q" ability that scales over 100% in attack damage as an attack booster with an extra effect ( Decisive Strike silences with a movement speed boost while Wukong's Crushing Blow reduces armor by 30%).
- A passive ability that increases their defensive stats (with Garen's being a normal ability with not only percentage defensive boosts, but also with a damage reduction active while Wukong's only being a standard passive with flat defense boosts.)
- Point-and-click spells; Garen's can only target one champion with it and acts as his ult; Wukong's can hit two extra targets in range, moves him to said target(s) and acts as a normal ability instead.
- Wukong's Cyclone and Judgment involve a very similar spinning animation and the way their hits are racked up and how they can involve bonus movement speed during cast time and cancellation. A number of certain item actives and summoner spells can even be used during their cast times.
- The only differences here are that Judgment is a normal ability with a chance to critically strike per hit and does lower damage to minions, while also being interruptible with Demacian Justice. Cyclone is an ult itself that knocks up and can only be interrupted on command instead of with another ability.
- His ultimate is mentioned in a famous Diablo II: Lord of Destruction mod, Median XL, in a form of a sacred unique long sword. The weapon is called Demacian Justice.
- Garen is currently the only champion to have his IP price reduced twice.
- Garen pre-visual update was one of the few champions to have three different auto attack animations.
- After his Visual Update, Garen has become the champion with the highest amount of jokes, with a total of six, surpassing Vi (who previously held the highest amount with five) and Swain and Lux (both of them having four).
- Garen is one of the 8 champions who do not have a single skill that scales off ability power; along with Darius, Draven, Olaf, Riven, Talon, Vayne and Zed.
- Garen's joke and his taunt were changed from the Test Realm to Release. The previous joke was "I know you're in that bush!"
- Garen's old joke was a reference to the Men's Wearhouse commercials, which always end with the line, "You're gonna like the way you look. I Garen-tee it. Get it?"
- Garen shares a quote with Irelia: "Forge Onward."
- Garen shares a quote with Hecarim: "Break their ranks!"
- In Garen's basic skin art he wears a full glove on his left hand and no glove on his right, while on his ingame model he wears fingerless gloves on both hands.
- In his Dreadknight and Rugged skin arts he is holding his sword in his left hand, but in-game he holds it in his right hand.
- Dreadknight Garen is most likely a reference to the class Death Knight from World of Warcraft. His gear closely resembles their gear and he has the typical Death Knight's glowing blue eyes.
- Rugged Garen was originally called "Vagabond Garen", and may be based on Geralt from the book and game series, The Witcher.
- Several of Garen's skins appear to be references to factions from the Warhammer 40,000 series
- Sanguine Garen is possibly a homage to the Blood Angels of which their primarch (leader) is Sanguinius.
- Commando Garen is a reference to the Imperial Guard.
- Steel Legion Garen skin is a reference to the Grey Knights, and he shares this skin with Lux.
- The weight of the skin is enough to make him not able to somersault forward during his Decisive Strike, instead making him leap straight up. After the visual upgrade, this is true for all the skins.
- Garen and Katarina first fought during a war between Demacia and Noxus. Garen has fought with her ever since, whenever the opportunity presents itself.
- Garen and Katarina were the ones who stopped the inter-city brawl in Kalamanda.
- According to Blitzcrank's "Fleshling Compatibility Service," a dating service made by Blitzcrank, Katarina and Garen make a perfect couple, but are not officially together. Fans have since been joking about their relationship. When he jokes a nearby enemy Katarina, he's trying to impress her with how many push-ups he can do. In the other joke he has a flirty tone in his voice.
- During a Creative Design AMA about Katarina, when asked about the relationship between herself and Garen, RiotRaven stated that they aren't quite rivals, yet have "a romantic connection, from times gone by. "
- The sixth issue of the Journal of Justice states Garen's family name is Crownguard, and every member of his family has joined the Demacian armed forces. His father and mother, Marcus and Lilia, are officials of the legislative Demacian Council. His younger sister Lux joined the military when she was thirteen.
- Garen is a childhood companion of Jarvan IV, the crown prince of Demacia.
- When Jarvan was captured by Noxian forces, Garen led his Dauntless Vanguard through enemy lines and rescued Jarvan before he could be executed. He bisected Urgot, The Headman's Pride in the process.
- Garen once protected Katarina when she came to Demacia to protest about High Councilor Heywan Relivash's conspiracy in Kalamanda along with Jarvan IV.

Hope Hodge interned at The New York Sun
Hope was placed on the city desk of the New York Sun. Her first assignments focused on neighborhood news. During her research she came across the city government's plans to close down 7th Avenue in Manhattan for extensive repairs. Hope got her story out before the Mayor's office could announce the project, scooping all the other newspapers in New York and landing her piece on the front page. As a result of her performance, Hope was promoted to the Sun's bureau at 1 Police Plaza. For the rest of the summer she did crime reporting from the streets of New York.

Discussion in 'Circus Maximus' started by askaninjask, Jun 6, 2012.
Lynch Jimera0 [unvote]
Hoping this works!
Changing my vote to Lynch Jimera0.
Sorry dude. :D
EDIT: Since we have problems, I'm voting Lynch Dracyos7 for now.
Lynch Jimera0
no one else post a lynch vote for jimera0, we need to keep it at these 7 votes until aska gets on
some new stuff came up
Lynch Dracyos7
explanation: Draycos has claimed mayor, let's test this. If today ends in a no lynch, he's innocent, if not, he's scum. We need 5 votes to lynch him and 4 votes to lynch Jimera0. As it stands now, it's Jimera0 - 5 and Dracyos7 - 3 (AOPSuser didn't unbold his Dracyos lynch so I'm running on the assumption his new one is void). We need someone to unvote Jimera0 and 1 person to vote Dracyos. Thanks.
Lynch Dracyos7
I unvoted Jimera0 and went back to Dracyos7.
aops. You need to unbold old lynch votes
all of the old ones.
also, Lynch Draycos7
Lynch Draycos7
there we go, its draycos 5 - 4 jimera. No one else vote for them.
In a stunning turn of events, it appears as though Draycos7 was going to be lynched. However, it must have been the case that someone with more influence wanted Jimera0 dead, and as such today's lynch was a tie, and nobody was killed.
How odd!
But wait! It appears as though Darkaxis has just killed himself! He must have been pretty upset with all that he had done wrong in the past.
The Republicans cheer at the death of a nemesis, but wonder how such an event could have occurred.
(To clarify, Darkaxis was forced to do something today that he did not do. As a result he was killed. This is completely separate from the lynch, which killed nobody.)
It is now Night 2. Night 2 ends 48 hours as of this post.
erm, yay?
The fuck.
This just doesn't make sense for a number of reasons, but I intend to get to the bottom of it.
But hey, at least Darkaxis got himself killed and turned out to be mafia! We didn't even actually HAVE to lynch anyone today! Though it just goes to show we actually should've lynched the crap out of him day 1 XD
also i'm draycos, not dracyos
Assuming that the "not" is a typo...???
No its Knight 2
Or Night to or NIgHt too or whatever
Hahah yes, I meant to say it is NOW Night 2. Nice catch.
Alright, looks like I can't hide anymore, no one is buying my claims anymore.
Yes, I am Chewbacca, and I'm ready to turn this game around. The revelation of my Role PM gives me a unique ability; to unite the mafia against the village! Believe it or not, even though it is only N2 we have the ability to steal the vote tomorrow if we work together! Here is how!
If the Lone Wolf kills a villager tonight, we have a total of 2 kills tonight, bringing the villages current 9 votes (counting Draycos7) to 7. After that we also have a persuasion and a silence, which allows us to subtract two or three more votes from the village, bringing their total vote count to 4 or 5. Even if the wolf votes with them, they will have at most 6 votes tomorrow.
We have 5 votes, plus either 1 or 2 from persuasion, meaning we either tie or win tomorrows vote. All we need to do is make sure none of our targets overlap, and that we all vote for the same person. Just like that, the village will be finished.
Lone wolf, there is great benefit for you in this plan as well. The way it is set up, we just need you to kill a target tonight that we know is village. You can vote with the village and we will still either tie or win. This means, lone wolf, you can remain completely hidden while eliminating as many of your opponents in one go as possible! I should not have to explain how beneficial this is to you.
LME, this is your only chance of victory now. The death of Darkaxis was a tragic accident; my team did not anticipate him being mafia. However, with this alliance you can gain a fighting chance to win yet. Just stick with us until the village is too weak to fight back. That's all we ask. I'll need both of you to PM me telling me who you are, so I can PM back instructions and ensure we don't target you by mistake. Just hurry! Time is of the essence here! We only have 7 hours to get this together. Also if you're worried about the alliance being one sided, don't worry; come the vote all my teammates will be revealed anyway so we'll be on even ground.
Lone Wolf: Kill AOPS tonight (we have it on good authority on who he is). If you wish to remain hidden by voting with the village tomorrow, you can, it won't hurt us.
LME: PM me your identities so I can send out instructions for your night actions. Do this as soon as possible, because if we don't act now the mafia might not be able to recover from tomorrows vote!
Village: You're screwed bitches >:D
I swear if you idlers cost us the game, I will not be pleased, SO GET IT IN GEAR!
Also: a note to the 2 remaining LME.
Jimera says it will be an even match once the village is removed... But the fact is they are at full strength, while you are not. THEY WILL KILL YOU. Given the chance, they will not hesitate to be rid of you. Are you going to listen to some honeyed lies of your enimies? (well, we are also enemies but you know what I mean.) Jimera0 and the rest of the Illegal Alliens will not hesistate to wipe you out, if you send your pms, one of you will die tonight.
A note for the wolf: Also, as penguin said, the mafias will find you eventually. js.
attention liberal media:
jimera0 has painted you a picture where he will help you win the game. However, consider the following:
if the thing goes according to his plan,
-aliens have all of your pms
-aliens outnumber you
-aliens will kill you in a few cycles once they feel they have the game won.
in short, if you do as jimera0 wants, you are going to lose. no question about it.
Also, for the wolf:
Jimera is the inspector, remember? He WILL find you, and you WILL die. Perhaps removing the inspector would to be to your benefit... Food for thought.
honeyed lies of your enemies indeed. Let me point out a few things...
Yes, we outnumber you now. Yes, we have the advantage. But right now we're not the ones trying to eliminate you. Right now, the village is the one in control. I've learned that the village has a way to check alliances, so it's only a matter of time before we are ALL found out. We cannot win this alone! If we do not take steps to eliminate the village when we have the chance they will get an untouchable advantage over the next couple days, especially if we start hitting each other by mistake, which is very likely to start happening unless we know who each other are! You will know our names too after tomorrow, so you'll be able to backstab US at any time as well. For the time being, it's in both our interest to see the village fall.
Also I'd like to point out, I didn't ask for your PMs; I just asked for your NAMES so we don't accidentally attack you by mistake. You get to hide what your roles is, though I know what one of them is from outside circumstances admittedly, you also know some of ours.
As for the wolf... don't forget, the village has inspectors too, and they have to fear you a lot more than the mafia does. If they find you out, you will die the next day above all others, because you are THE biggest threat. If I find you out, I could very well keep you along for a while. You have the most powerful ability in the game (I believe). You would be the one holding all the cards, the one able to decide who survives, the LME or the Illegal Aliens. And you can use that. You can play off us, work us until it's all over.
And if another suspicion I have is true, you might not even have to worry about inspectors at all...
What? Why on earth would we kill one of you tonight? Our advantage depends on you staying ALIVE for the time being. Killing a mafian tonight would make absolutely no sense, partly because we already do have an advantage. It would be utterly stupid.
So, what do you think is the better option? Soon, everyone will find out...
Lets go through this. (quick warning, you shifts between the reader and jimera intermittently)
Yeah, Jimera is going to murder you all. If you allow him to, that is.
Quick reminder, Jimera is being so friendly all of a sudden because he knows that he will die if he isn't. Helping him screws yourself.
One more simple point.
Remember why the village is trying to paint me as a backstabbing liar. It's because they know an alliance will spell their doom.
They're terrified. They know it could all end, right here, right now.
And it's your finger on the trigger.
Also remember, that Jimera is the puppetmaster. He knows you have the gun, and as soon as you fire he is going to rip it out of your hands and turn it at you.
Unless he dies first. Remember that.
*snort* I wish it was that easy. You can defend that gun, and I know it. After tonight, the ball goes to your court. We'll be at YOUR mercy... your chances have diminished due to Darkaxis' death no matter what, against the village and against us. You simply need to decide which you think you can beat more easily... and I dare say, I'd take the odds against 3 opponents instead of 8.

Kohler disease
Other Names for this Disease
- Kohler's Disease
- Kohler's Disease of the Tarsal Navicular
- Kohler's Osteochondrosis of the Tarsal Navicular
- Navicular Osteochondrosis
See Disclaimer regarding information on this site. Some links on this page may take you to organizations outside of the National Institutes of Health.
[1] Signs and symptoms are usually mild and may include limping, swelling and pain in the affected foot.[2][1] The condition most often affects children aged 3 to 5 years and usually involves just one foot.[2][3] Although the underlying cause it not well understood, it is thought to be due to interruption of blood flow to the navicular bone, resulting in degeneration of the bone.[4] Treatment may involve rest and avoidance of excessive weight-bearing.[2][3]Kohler disease is a condition that involves a bone at the arch of the foot called the tarsal navicular bone. In this condition, the tarsal navicular bone breaks into fragments before healing and hardening.

I worked at Netflix full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – Netflix's commitment to attracting highly-motivated, creative thinkers throughout the organization means clever solutions and great ideas can come from anywhere at anytime.
Cons – There is a certain pressure to perform that comes from the level of freedom granted that results in a percieved sink or swim mentality.
Advice to Senior Management – When I left, there was very little reward or recognition given to managers who mentored or successfully developed staff.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Catania v Sampdoria: Preview
Sampdoria sporting director Pasquale Sensibile is reluctant to resort to overspending in the January transfer window in a bid to guarantee the club's Serie A survival.
Ciro Ferrara's men have averted disaster, for now, by putting an end to a desperate run of seven straight defeats courtesy of two wins and a creditable 2-2 draw at Fiorentina.
Samp lost at home to Udinese last time out and Sensibile insists it is only through hard work that the Ligurians will retain their top-flight status, starting at Catania tomorrow.
He told Gazzetta.it: ``At the moment we are thinking in line with the objectives we set ourselves at the start of the season.
``We said from the outset that Sampdoria would have to try and stay up despite spending as little as possible.
``Catania is a tough place to go but we showed in Florence that we can pull off a good result when we're prepared.''
Midfielder Pedro Mba Obiang has been a revelation at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris this season and Sensibile is eager to keep the 20-year-old Spaniard on board until the end of the season.
``I don't think we can consider allowing his departure in January,'' he added. ``The boy is mature enough to understand that he has to grow with Sampdoria this season.
``There have been a lot of enquiries but no firm offers. Obiang's value is very high but if an offer came in that we could not afford to refuse, we would think about it.''
Daniele Gastaldello is suspended for the trip to Sicily, with Maxi Lopez and Juan Antonio facing late fitness checks as Gianni Munari sits the game out through injury.
Confidence is high at the Stadio Angelo Massimino as Rolando Maran's side followed up a much-needed league victory at Siena with a penalty shoot-out success at Parma in the Coppa Italia.
The Elefanti remain in the top half of the table despite inconsistent form and Maran wants his charges to push on.
Speaking in Parma, he said: ``This victory raises our awareness of our own capabilities and improves our self-esteem and morale.
``Now we have to find the mental strength and energy to face Sampdoria.''
Maran has serious concerns over personnel, though, with midfielder Sergio Almiron serving a one-match ban as Nicolas Spolli, Mariano Izco, Fabio Sciacca, Marco Biagianti and Adrian Ricchiuti sit out through injury.
Catania have claimed four wins from Samp's last five visits to east Sicily, with the mainlanders' solitary victory in that period coming in August 2009

Multiplayer game
A multiplayer game is a game which is played by several players.[1] The players might be independent opponents, formed into teams or be just a single team pitted against the game. Games with many independent players are difficult to analyse formally in a game-theoretical way as the players may form coalitions.[2]
Multiplayer games first emerged in the 1970s. Among the first multiplayer games were arcade games such as Pong. With Ralph H. Baer's invention of the Magnavox Odyssey, these games then migrated from the arcade to the home, and were playable on the television. Arcade games gained popularity in 1980, eventually losing ground and being overtaken by the home videogame industry in 1983. Some games originated as single-player games, but became multi-player through modifications of the original software. The popular game Counter-Strike, which enjoys the most players of all multiplayer games, is a modified version of the single-player game called Half-Life.[3]
Game theory[edit]
John Nash proved that games with several players have a stable solution provided that coalitions between players are not allowed. He won the Nobel prize for economics for this important result which extended von Neumann's theory of zero-sum games. Such a stable strategy is called a Nash equilibrium.[4]
If cooperation between players is allowed, then the game is more complex. Many concepts have been developed to analyze such games. While these have had some partial success in the fields of economics, politics and conflict, no good general theory has yet been developed.[4]
In quantum game theory, it has been found that the introduction of quantum information into multiplayer games allows a new type of equilibrium strategy which is not found in traditional games. The entanglement of players's choices can have the effect of a contract by preventing players from profiting from betrayal.[5]
Examples of the types of such games include:
- Party games - A social game played with a number of people, little equipment, and simple rules (e.g. Charades)[6]
- Card games - A game played with a deck of cards. (e.g. Contract Bridge)[6]
- Board games - A played on a game board with set rules. (e.g. Monopoly)
- Multiplayer computer games - played either on networked or individual computers
- Multiplayer online games - played over the Internet
- Massively multiplayer online role-playing games - a notable subset of online games
- Multiplayer video games - played on a video gaming system

Massage >The Massage Place
1520 S Main St, Walnut Creek, CA | Directions 9459637.889792 -122.057187
Neighborhoods: Broadway Plaza
Rude and confusing – I called Massage Place in Walnut Creek, CA to ask about their location and services. The woman who answered the phone was very impatient and did not speak much English. Instead of trying to communicate, she hung up on me! From the brief phonecall and the review I read here, I am very suspicious of this business.
It reminds me of a massage parlor that used to be in the Safeway complex at Ygnacio and Oak Grove in Walnut Creek, where I was given creepy "you're not welcome vibes" as soon as I walked in to inquire about a massage. I wondered then if it was because they prefer male clientele?
Emphasis on tip policy instead of good customer service – When I've gone to get a massage at other places, the staff made me feel comfortable and like they're they're there to pamper me right as I walk in the door...NOT at Massage Place. As I walked in the door I noticed the signs to silence cell phones and take off shoes which I appreciated. I anticipated this respect for the clients to continue after I walked up the stairs to be greeted by the staff. I said I was here for a massage. I was going to pay first and the woman asked if I was going to take care of the tip now or later. I said I would take care of it later since to me, the tip usually depends on the level of service. She then showed me a piece of paper and pointed to the bottom line and explained that they require a $20 minimum tip. I was not comfortable with that at all and decided to go elsewhere.
If they treated me well and gave a good massage I would have no problem giving $20 or more for a tip but to have someone tell me that it is required really turned me off. I told her it should be included in the price then and because the tip is something extra and she just said "We give a professional massage." They should adjust their prices if they want to guarantee a certain amount and leave the amount of tip up to the customer. They may give a professional massage, I don't know, but they do not act professionally. I recommend going for a massage from someone who deserves and appreciates a tip, not demands one.

Boehner, Obama Meet But Make No Progress On Deal To End Shutdown
By Mara Liasson
Day two of the government shutdown is nearing its finish, with no end in sight. And that's in spite of talks at the White House late today. President Obama met with House Speaker John Boehner for over an hour Wednesday evening. The meeting failed to produce a deal that would end the federal government shutdown.

Day 1 Quito
Arrive at any time. There are no planned activities, so check into our hotel and enjoy the city. Information will be left at the hotel regarding the arrangements for the next day as well as general information about the upcoming trip. If there is any confusion on arrival, please do not hesitate to call the contact number listed in this dossier. Located 2850m (9348 ft) above sea level, the Ecuadorian capital of Quito enjoys a wonderful spring-like climate, despite the fact that it is only 22 km (14 miles) south of the Equator. Nestled in a valley flanked by mountains, on a clear day several snow-capped volcanoes, including nearby Pichincha, are visible from the city centre. Add to its beautiful location a rich history and well-preserved colonial district, and you begin to understand Quito's appeal to thousands of tourists every year. In 1978 UNESCO declared Quito a World Heritage site, and any new development in Quito's old town is now strictly controlled. Life in Quito tends to be peaceful, though the drivers are fond of using their car horns! There are approximately 2,000,000 inhabitants in the metropolitan area, but the pace is relaxed and the residents hospitable. Since pre-Columbian times, the site of Quito has been inhabited by the Quitus, the Shyris and the Puruhas. The Inca reached this city before the Spaniards, but levelled it to the ground rather than give it up to the Spanish. The present capital was founded by the Spanish on December 6th, 1534. Quito is separated into two basic sections, the old and the new cities. The old city is full of historical buildings and churches. One of the more noteworthy is the Catedral de Quito, located on the Plaza de la Independencia. Built between 1550 and 1562, it was one of the first neoclassical works in Quito. La Compañía de Jésus Church is considered one of the most beautiful in the Americas. The decorations in the Compañía contain approximately one and one-half tons of gold, and construction of the church took 170 years (1605-1775). There are several excellent museums scattered throughout the city. The Casa de la Cultura Ecuadoriana has an interesting display of traditional musical instruments and Ecuadorian traditional dress, a large art collection, and a small natural history museum. For archaeology the best museum to visit is the Museo del Banco Central with its well displayed pottery, gold ornaments, skulls showing deformities and early surgical methods, a mummy and many other objects of interest. The small, rounded hill dominating the old town is El Panecillo or 'the Little Bread Loaf,' a major Quito landmark. From here there are marvellous panoramic views of the entire city and surrounding volcanoes. You can easily take a trolley (streetcar) or a cab between the Old Town and New Town. Quito's large foreign population and steady stream of travellers have given it a varied and vibrant nightlife, and salsotecas and other dance clubs abound. For a real Ecuadorian experience though, be sure and drop by a peña if you can; these are great places for meeting locals and dancing, as well as enjoying local cooking. Just a couple of hours south of Quito is Parque National Cotopaxi, home to Cotopaxi Volcano (5897 m/19342 ft). the beautiful cone-shaped, snow covered volcano is Ecuador's second highest peak and the highest active volcano in the world. This is a great spot for a days hiking (up to the refuge on the glacier's edge) or mountain biking (downhill all the way). True enthusiasts attempt the climb to the summit (overnight excursion). Allow yourself an extra day or two in Quito, before or after your trip, if you want to conquer Cotopaxi.
Day 2 Puerto López (B)
Travel day by public bus to the Pacific Coast and the town of Puerto López. You will be met by a project representative and transferred to the project for a short orientation meeting to prepare for the week ahead. Free evening to relax.
Day 3-20 Purto Lopez - Volunteer at Whale Conservation Project (18B,18L,18D)
Spend three weeks assisting the project with tasks associated with whale and ocean conservation. Spend time organizing and analyzing recent photos of the whales and their activities, recording their activities as well as going out in the boats to do hands-on field research with whale observation. Also assist in organizing and participating in environmental education workshops as well as helping with local recycling initiatives. Participate in Spanish classes and enjoy occasional excursions to spot birds or explore the surrounding area including the nearby Isla de la Plata (also known as the "Poor Man's Galapagos"). The tasks that volunteers can undertake depend on their Spanish ability, areas of interest and the time of year that they are available. Volunteer projects can include: •June to September – Field work on boats photographing and tracking whales. Specific experience studying or working in these areas is appreciated but not necessary, however a keen interest in the subject matter is important. •July to September – Environmental education programs in schools regarding waste management, the sea, and the environment in general. The Foundation has an agreement with the municipality to provide these education programs. Volunteers, with the assistance of the Foundation, plan and deliver classes to school students in the surrounding communities. •All year – Participate in a plastic and glass recycling program, create promotional and educational materials. Pacific Whale Foundation is an international organization working in the areas of marine research, education and conservation and in general working to address the issues that shape the future of our oceans and our planet. In Ecuador, the Foundation is based on the central Pacific coast in Puerto Lopez, where for three months of the year migrating whales pass close to the shore. The main activities of the Foundation include: •Marine research – including studies of humpback whales in Hawaii, Australia, Tonga, Alaska, Japan and Ecuador, along with pioneering studies of the wild dolphins and coral reefs of Maui County. •Education – the Foundation's award-winning marine education programs grew out of a desire to share research discoveries with the public. These programs combine field trips and classroom/lab work, aiming to inspire greater interest in science and marine conservation. The Foundation also offers talks, slideshows, displays and educational guides for the public. •Conservation – tackling both small and large issues ranging from preventing litter on beaches to stopping commercial or so-called "scientific whaling" around the world.
Day 21 Quito (B)
Return to Quito by public bus.
Day 22 Quito (B)
Depart at any time.

using mac OS 10.6.8 with CS5 Xtnd: I don't get it! When I first began using this app (and I've spent much time swearing at it with no result) and until recently and in either normal or full size mode showing xhairs and whether I use as paint or erase the effect is always considerably less than the diameter of the tip. What is with this? I require a tip that goes right to the edge of what is supposed to be the tip....as it is there is abolutely nothing precise about this. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
It sounds like you are using a brush with less than 100% hardeness. open your brush tip shape picker ( the icon above your layers panel with the box with 3 brushes sticking out of it ). Select the "brush tip shape option and drag the "Hardenss" slider all the way to the right ( 100% ). Then try again...
thanks for the try Herugrim; what I found was to be an operating system (OSX6.8) preference where I had chosen to increase my cursor size. What this did was give me a false brush size, increasing the diameter as per the cursor but without the brush tool following that lead - correctly so I would think. So perhaps a slight adjustment in the software could make this tool adaptable to variable cursor size.
However, having now found a solution to this episode, I am still stuck with a stroke function (tool) that does not behave propoerly - see stroke discussion. cheers
No problems. I am a windows user so cannot help you with OS problem but the Adobe guys on here should take an interest in trying to replicate ( and solve ! ) the problem which I believe JJMACK and PECourtejoie are doing. I remember about a year ago on here someone had a problem ( which many
others also had ) on a really old machine. It went on for weeks until the guys at Adobe sourced exactly the same machine and installed the same software etc, etc and eventually solved the problem. Fair dues to them.
Jpierre33, I am havin the same problem on my Macs. Running lion operating system on two computers with PSE 9 and having the brush size problem on only one of them with all settings the same on both. Very strange and annoying! Was on the forum yesterday with two people trying to help to no avail. if you find a solution I would love to hear about it.
Much thanks to R_Kelly. This fixed the problem. It was really driving us crazy!!!
The cursor was not set to normal causing this issue.
Simply it is in System Preferences / Universal access then the mouse or mouse/trackpad tab. Set cursor to normal.
Here is a link with instructions on how to find this in OSX.
