This box has been updated and confirmed as of 9/11/10. Please be mindful of re-sealing all contents and the box itself. Unfortunately the box was left exposed and the inkpad leaked...everywhere!
This is a 3¼-mile, hiking and nature trail, close to town short, but steep. Approximately 2-3 hour hike.
The overall loop is 3¼ miles and typically requires about 2½ hours walking time. A shorter hike to the South Cliff only, would require about 1½ hours walking time.
The elevation gain is 750 feet mostly occurring up the South Cliff. The trail ascends to open ledges with views of the Androscoggin River Valley and the village of Bethel. There are good views to the north, south and east (& look for blueberries)!
The starting point is a parking area directly opposite the Bethel Recycling & Transfer Station. Taking Route 2 east from Bethel village, it is 1.9 miles past the Riverside State Rest Area. The trail begins at a chained-off logging entrance on the northwest side of Route 2.
While standing on the South cliffs, enjoying the view, you will notice a lone pine tree at the edge of the cliff.
Go towards the tree, when within approx. 10 feet, turn around and look directly across the trail into the woods.
You will see a tiny pine tree. Beyond that there will be two fallen pine trees to your right and a large flat rock straight ahead.
Stop just before the rock and look right. At the base of the pine tree, you will find the box.
Observe signs posted by private landowners.
Carry in carry out.
Foot travel only.
This carry in carry out foot trail, developed by the Bethel Conservation Commission, to increase public awareness of the natural resources and beauty of the Androscoggin River Valley. A number of descriptive signs on the North Ledges Section provide a guide for understanding the natural history of the area.
They have cleared the trail of major obstructions, but uneven terrain and some steep places requiring adequate footgear and good physical condition.
The trail is well marked with blue & green blazes. Except for the South Cliff Section, the trail is on private land. Continued landowner permission depends on no abuse.
The South Cliff Section is ¾ of a mile long and climbs 630 vertical feet to relatively open ledges. There are good views of the valley and surrounding mountains north and east from an elevation of 1350 feet about 700 feet above river level. The trail goes through the Bethel Town Forest and allows observation of a forest regenerating itself after managed timber harvesting. A typical ascent time is about 45 minutes. A typical descent is about 30 minutes.
The North Ledges to South Cliffs Section is 1½ mile long and winds around to reach a series of higher ledges overlooking the Androscoggin and Bear River valleys north and east. The trail then goes through forested terrain with both ascents and descents to a maximum elevation of 1700 feet. After a descent to 1450 feet, the trail emerges at the South Cliffs with fully open views south and east, including Bethel village. Typical walking time is about 1 hour.
The South Cliffs to Trailhead Section is one mile long, descending 730 vertical feet to the Route 2 starting point. This section goes directly to the South Cliffs from the trailhead, ascent time is about 1 hour and descent time is about 40 minutes.

Publisher's Description
As Christmas cultural and commercial value increases ever more, the spiritual ground¬ing of Advent expectation becomes more and more essential. Taking time for personal reflection and family devotion becomes just another item on parishioners long to-do lists, often falling below endless shopping, wrapping, baking, and hosting. Sunday wor¬ship and Christmas Eve services are their primary opportunities to stop and consider the timeless truth and lasting promise of Advent, and pastors primary opportunity to touch hearts and lives during this special season.

PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
Ape Entertainment announced it would be doing a Strawberry Shortcake comic at NYCC last year, and it looks like the first issues will debut this summer. The team working on the comic includes writers Georgia Ball, former Tokyopop editor Tim Beedle, and Russell and Meredith Lissau, and the artists are Tanya Roberts and Amy Mebberson. Mebberson was last seen illustrating Roger Langridge's Muppets comics for BOOM! Studios, and it's nice to see her back at work again. Here's a sample, and there's more at Ape's preview page.
FYI, since the end of THE MUPPET SHOW Amy also did several covers for DARKWING DUCK, IDW's Dr. WHO, and collaborated with James Silvani on a back-up story for RICHIE RICH #2. In addition to STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE she's currently working on an as-yet unannounced project for us at APE ENTERTAINMENT.
That's all sorts of cute.
My daughter loves Strawberry Shortcake. She doesn't believe me when I tell her it was around when I was a kid. She thinks that that means they should all be as old as me if that's the case.
Strawberry Shortcake comics! What a wonderful treat for comics-reading girls . . . there are already kids' comics out there that girls like, of course, but we could always use more titles that are made specifically with young girls in mind. Especially when they look as great as this!

By Maj. Gen. Nick Justice (U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command and Aberdeen Proving Ground, Commanding General)October 22, 2010
This week, I'd like to continue sharing a way of thinking and working that you may find valuable here at Aberdeen Proving Ground.
I call them the 5 P's: People, places, purse, processes and products. The 5 P's are my way of accomplishing the mission while always maintaining focus.
Last week, we talked about people. This week, I want to talk about places. This is how we define places within the Research, Development and Engineering Command: Acquire, establish, and sustain state-of-the-art facilities, equipment, and information technology infrastructure that enable leading edge research, development and engineering capabilities. The crux of that message carries over to all organizations on APG.
I meet with people all across this region who are excited about what is happening on the installation. There's a buzz about APG, base realignment, jobs and transformation.
We are growing folks. By this time next year we'll have more than 22,000 people working on the proving ground.
The last time APG saw this magnitude of change was in 1917 when the Army opened this installation. At the time we were transitioning from the days of horse-drawn artillery. Who could have guessed the amazing changes technology would bring in the decades that followed' But what's happening today is bigger than that. What we're doing is unprecedented. We stand at pivot point in the history of the installation.
We are building a megabase focused on the future of science and technology for the Army. Look around if you don't believe me. Everywhere you turn you will see one of three things, we're building, we're renovating and we're demolishing.
It means we have almost a billion and half dollars in new construction going on. We are repairing and renovating our facilities, government quarters and infrastructure. Moreover, we are tearing down buildings that have long passed their usefulness.
Why do you think we're doing this'
For one, creating a superior quality of life for our Soldiers, Family Members and civilian employees is part of our covenant of taking care of people.
But why we focus on places is important for so many other reasons too.
If APG is to be the beacon for technology in this region, we need state-of-the-art facilities for science, medical, testing, chem-bio and research. This means a significant investment in laboratories, prototype facilities, test tracks, ranges, research space and office parks.
Investing in the future is critical if we want to recruit, develop, and retain a diverse, resilient, world-class workforce.
Finally I'd like to comment on the outstanding partnerships we have with our state, county and local leaders. On Oct. 5, we attended a ground breaking ceremony for upgrades to U.S. 40 and MD-715. This $42.6 million dollar project will bring much needed improvements to a major traffic artery into and out of the installation. This is a result of close coordination between people who are working together to make APG a great place to live and work.
Think what APG will be like in the next couple of years. I hope you're here to see it. I'm excited about the changes that are coming. I hope you are too!
Next week I will talk with you about another important pillar of the 5 P's: Purse. Army Strong!

Taken as a whole, they offer solace to those facing life's trials, while also asking the reader to examine the idols and illusions that keep us from experiencing the fullness of God's peace and joy. The meditations vary in length from relatively short poems to longer writings that require time and reflection in order to get the most benefit. Journaling after each meditation would be ideal. I highly recommend this devotional.

"The Tesla Model S is fast, refined, well-equipped and practical. It also doesn't come with as many compromises as some other electric cars."
Tesla is a company on the up. A few years ago, it wasn't even a car company and now it's at the forefront of pioneering electric vehicle technology.
Much of this success is down to the Model S – a highly impressive electric-powered executive hatchback that can travel up to 340 miles on a single charge. That's about the same as a small petrol-powered hatchback and enough to do most journeys with ease. Despite this impressive range, the fastest version of the Model S will do 0-62mph in under three seconds. This makes it quicker than many supercars – even the legendary McLaren F1. The range-topping P90D with the optional 'Ludicrous Speed Upgrade' can do 0-62mph in just 2.8 seconds when you put it into what Tesla calls 'Ludicrous Mode'.
There are two basic versions of the Model S available in the UK: the 70 and 90 (the numbers relate to the car's battery capacity in kWh). The basic 70kWh version comes with with either rear-wheel drive (called the 70) or four-wheel drive (70D), while the more potent 90kWh model comes in standard (90D) or Performance (P90D) models. Both of these are four-wheel drive. Even the entry-level rear-wheel-drive 70 will do 0-62mph in around five seconds.
Tesla says the Model S is a rival for the likes of BMW 5 Series, Audi A6, Mercedes E-Class and the Jaguar XF – and it certainly compares well with these cars for size, refinement and equipment, and comprehensively beats them for performance. True, it won't go as far on a single charge as those cars will on a tank of diesel, but for most people, 300 miles or so between charges will be plenty.
Uniquely for an executive car (thanks to the compact nature of the batteries and electric motors) the Model S can be specified with a pair of rear-facing child seats in the boot, making it into a proper seven-seater. There should be no safety worries, either, as the Model S was awarded the full five stars by the crash-test experts at Euro NCAP.
The Model S now offers near-autonomous driving capability, too: it can take you down the motorway and even change lanes by itself when you flick the indicator. This has been achieved by means of a software update that uses the car's existing array of sensors, cameras and radars.
There's a range of charging options, from simply plugging the car into a household socket, to getting a wall box installed in your home or using public charging points dotted about the country. Tesla owners also enjoy free access to the company's 'Supercharger' stations, which can give you up to 170 miles of range in around half an hour. There are, however, only a limited number of these around the country, while charging at home or at public charging stations will take a lot longer.
The Tesla interior is a fantastic place to sit, with a vast 17-inch portrait-orientated touchscreen 'tablet' controlling most of the car's features. The compact nature of the batteries and electric motors means there's loads of space inside, too.
While there's no doubting that the performance of the higher-end models is both addictive and astonishing, they are quite pricey. We think the best bet is the entry-level 70, which costs around £53,000 once the Government electric-car grant has been deducted. For this you get 260 miles of range and a 0-62mph time of 5.5 seconds, so it's by no means a slouch.
MPG, running costs & CO2
The Tesla Model S is costly to buy, but extremely cheap to run day-to-day
Engines, drive & performance
The Tesla Model S is fast and unusual to drive, whichever version you choose
Interior & comfort
The Tesla Model S feels both spacious and luxurious inside
Practicality & boot space
Class-leading space inside, plus the Tesla Model S reduces range anxiety
Reliability & safety
The Tesla Model S uses Mercedes and Toyota parts, so should be reliable

With his contract status looming, it appears NBA commissioner David Stern has made a decision.
Stern will retire in 2014, according to multiple sources (reported by ESPN here).
Stern has been the commissioner since 1984, meaning he will have served as the active commissioner for three decades. It appears his successor will be Adam Silver.
Stern was the fourth NBA commissioner, succeeding the likes of Larry O'Brien, Walter Kennedy and Maurice Podoloff.
Over Stern's tenure as the active commissioner, seven teams were created, including the New Orleans Hornets, Minnesota Timberwolves, Miami Heat, Orlando Magic, Toronto Raptors and the Charlotte Bobcats.
Six franchises relocated during this stretch of time, including the Clippers, Kings, Hornets, Grizzlies, Supersonics (now the Thunder) and the Nets.
Stern was also involved in four different NBA lockouts while serving as the commissioner, most recently last year.
He has also recently affected the game of basketball by instating an anti-flopping rule that will penalize and potentially fine players for attempting to deceive the officials.
The NBA draft will certainly have a different feel to it without Stern calling out the names of future stars, and we will have to wait and see if New Yorkers are any friendlier to his successor.
Regardless of your opinion of whether Stern has been a successful or unsuccessful commissioner, this represents a major change in the game of basketball.

Reporter's Notebook: Artist takes on destructive plant
You don't have to be an artist to make a statement. And, you most certainly do not have to spend your time likeJim Proctor
,creating giant faux dandelions
to fix a problem.
Pulling buckthorn can be fun, says St. Olaf sophomore John van der Linden, who helped Proctor with the newest installations of the Buckthorn Menace. He laughs remembering the time that even a downpour of rain didn't stop him and his friends from pulling the root.
"Everything was all muddy, yet we still stood there in the rain pulling out buckthorn. It looked like we came out of a swamp or something, but it was just so much fun to get down and dirty and really work on this major problem."
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has some tips for recognizing buckthorn and aiding in its removal.
To control buckthorn, a plant that is slowing destroying Minnesota's forests, people need to kill it by pulling it out at its roots and cutting down seed producing trees, says Ann Pierce, a terrestrial invasive species coordinator for the Department.
Many people with one or two buckthorn hedges in their lots might not understand it's an invasive species, says Pierce. But, buckthorn can easily be identified in the fall because it holds its leaves and stays green longer than most native species.
"If you wait until October, you'll know if it's buckthorn," she says.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Dec 03rd, 2007
Running Time: 139 Min.
Director: Eli Thomas
Company: Combat Zone
Cast: Cassandra Cruz, Vanessa (I), Dutch Morgan, Rick Masters, Jordan Ash, Dave Pounder, Dick Delaware, Jessie Jolie, Gotti (I)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
This series presents five beautiful young gals new to the world of adult video. The action is very well shot, mostly outdoors, though the scenes don't stray from the basic "tease, suck and fuck" formula.
Cover doll Vanessa just turned 18, and this is her first scene ever. Like the rest of these newbies, she doesn't have the moves of a veteran performer, but enthusiasm counts for a lot. The "girl next door" fantasy is grounded in realism, anyway. And hey, she skillfully maneuvers a standing 69.
Nineteen-year-old strawberry blonde Kare Bare's deep sucking skills also impressed us. With only a small patio table to fuck on, Tiffany Summer's three-some in the woods is an ambitious success. Cassandra Cruz is a hot Latina who speaks dirty Spanish during her three-way scene. Making her on-camera debut, Jessie Jolie is another teenage honey.
Retailing: Fresh faced teen newcomers, pleasure in the outdoors.

Do you want to go heaven?
I know some folks who have no hope of winding up there.
Not because they're rascals or renegades. Heaven, as they imagine it, just doesn't appeal to them.
In his essay, "Harps," C. S. Lewis addressed those who are turned off by the usual images of heaven
"There is no need to be worried by facetious people who try to make the Christian hope of 'heaven' ridiculous by saying they do not want 'to spend eternity playing harps,' " Lewis wrote.
"The answer to such people," he suggested, "is that if they cannot understand books written for grown-ups, they should not talk about them.
"All the scriptural imagery (harps, crowns, gold, etc.) is, of course, a merely symbolic attempt to express the inexpressible."
Later in that essay he said, "People who take these symbols literally might as well think that when Christ told us to be like doves, He meant that we were to lay eggs."
Others I know are able to survive their own hell on this earth only because their hope of heaven is so real.
The poet Larry Thomas wrote some insightful lines about the dry-land farmers during the 1895 Pecos drought: He said they were sustained by their belief, that the harder their life on earth, the softer the one hereafter.
These struggling pioneers evidently shared the apostle Paul's conviction that "our present sufferings are not worth comparing to the glory that will be revealed" (Rom. 8:18).
Still, others don't know if they dare to believe in such a thing as heaven, either for themselves or for loved ones.
In her poem "Bargaining for Heaven," Sherry Craven describes such a person.
Struggling for faith after her mother died, this forlorn lady would go visit the grave and "pray like hell there is a heaven." But she's can't be sure.
Some are.
More than a dozen years after we buried their father, I went with a Christian family to lay their aged mother to rest.
Their parents were no longer alone, I assured them. They had now been reunited in heaven.
There beside their parents' graves, I watched them ponder this truth, and I saw tears of joy filling their eyes as faith and hope brought comfort to their hearts.
That's the blessing of a solid hope in heaven.

KarlL: A lot of Democratic political incest here. DWS replaces former DNC head Tim Kaine for DNC chairman who now is elevated to the VP slot. DWS was Clinton's campaign manager in 2008 and then "proud to bring Obama across the finish line" in 2012. I have to imagine that she had nothing to do with Obama's re-election whatsoever. The Democrats had a chance to go with totally new blood and infuse and energize the party and instead rigged it for same ol' same ol' with the usual suspects. If not for the differences in party platforms the two party's would be Republican and Republican lite.

The combination of red and white potatoes were great. I have made these twice. The first time I just served them right after mashing. Both ways, these potatoes are great.
This is a very tasty potato casserole. I scaled the potatoes by half but used the stated amounts of cream cheese, sour cream and cheese (cheddar and Parmesan). Love the texture and the cheesiness. Thanks for posting.

The closing of the grand old Fauborg Hotel in Beverly Hills is a sad occasion for longtime patrons Alex Delaware and Robin Castagna, who go there one last time for cocktails.

Two days later, police detective Milo Sturgis comes seeking his psychologist comrade's insights about a grisly homicide. To Alex's shock, the brutalized victim is the same beautiful woman whose lonely hours sipping champagne at the Fauborg may have been her last. But when a sordid revelation finally cracks the case open, the secrets that spill out could make Alex and Milo's best efforts to close this crime not just impossible but fatal.

Some of the beta patch's changes include the ability for planets to build and transfer ships to other planets, new ancient race dialog, and various fixes for icons and text. The new update also addresses some controller-related issues.

Soldak Entertainment, developers of Depths of Peril and Din's Curse, has just released their latest action-RPG, Drox Operative. As an intergalactic gun for hire, players will earn their keep by taking on jobs, alone or with friends via co-op multiplayer, in a dynamic galaxy embroiled in war. The goal isn't to build or administer bases but to amass as much money as possible to man the deadliest ship in space. In addition to ship and crew customization, the game offers budding mercenary captains quests to undertake, monsters to hunt, and several factions to work with or against.
Soldak launches Din's Curse on Steam

Back in the heady days of Britpop, Gorky's Zygotic Mynci was conveniently lumped into the scene by lazy music scribes looking for any guitar band from Old Blighty who could be wrapped into the trendy "Cool Britannia" packaging. Thing is, Gorky's never fit inside the wrapping. There may occasionally have been Kinks traces on a few of the band's singles, but these Welsh boys always cast a far wider net, with Nashville country and The Fall just as important to their sound as Ray Davies. Well, Britpop has largely been confined to the used bargain bins for the last two years and Gorky's is, thankfully, no longer on a major label and can fully exist and thrive as its true eclectic self now.
Spanish Dance Troup is the first fruits of Gorky's newfound freedom. It's a leisurely, but never lazy, collection of mainly acoustic tunes brimming with glorious melodies and inventive instrumentation. Digging deeply into British folk sounds, while more fully embracing Gorky's country influences, the new album sneaks up slowly and draws you in. Far more pastoral and subtle than Beta Band and Gomez, Gorky's nonetheless shares with these bands an experimental spirit and an obvious disdain for genre distinctions.

Utah Utes, Utah State football: An even dozen
Utes start strong then hang on in the second half to notch 12th straight win over Ags
Scott G. Winterton, Deseret News
Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said the Utes' 35-17 win over Utah State was "something we can build on."
Besides extending the nation's longest winning streak to 15 games (dating back to 2007) and defeating the Aggies for the 12th consecutive time, the 19th-ranked Utes opened the season with several success stories.
Running back Matt Asiata, quarterback Terrance Cain and David Reed headlined an offense that netted 519 yards.
Asiata was a workhorse, touching the ball on 38 of Utah's 80 offensive plays. The senior rushed for 156 yards and two touchdowns.
"That's going to be all season long," said Whittingham, who acknowledged that Asiata is going to be Utah's guy. "He wants the ball and we're going to get it to him."
Cain, who just learned he would be starter two days ago, completed 20-of-30 passes for 286 yards and a pair of scores.
"All things said I think he was pretty darn good in his debut," Whittingham said.
Cain, a junior-college transfer who prevailed in a camp battle with true freshman Jordan Wynn for the starting job, drew a lot of praise from his teammates.
"Outstanding," said Reed, the leading receiver with 10 catches for 172 yards and a touchdown.
Asiata said Cain was "calm, humble and kept his poise."
Aside from one big play, Utah's defense also had a good outing. The Utes stopped the Aggies on third down in all 12 situations they faced.
Whittingham said the efficiency compensated for three turnovers.
"Utah played a great game. They made plays and we didn't," said Utah State coach Gary Andersen. "That's what made the difference in the game."
USU jumped out to a 3-0 lead when Chris Ulinski capped the game's opening drive with a 29-yard field goal. The Aggies moved into scoring position when Diondre Borel connected on a 48-yard pass to wide receiver Stanley Morrison.
Utah's first offensive series got off to a good start when Cain teamed with David Reed on an 8-yard pass. The second play, however, ended with a fumble by Asiata and a recovery by USU's Bobby Wagner on the Utah 27-yard line.
The Aggies, though, failed to capitalize on the situation. They eventually came up empty when a 48-yard kick by Ulinski sailed wide right.
Another two-play drive followed for the Utes and this time around they made the most of it. After a modest gain on first down, Cain completed a 65-yard touchdown pass to Reed.
Leading 7-3 following the PAT, Utah's defense tightened and forced USU to punt. Luke Matthews returned it 38 yards and into Aggie territory.
Four plays later, Cain connected with John Peel on a 22-yard scoring strike.
"You've got great receivers running great routes," Cain said. "You've got to get it to them and they'll make the plays for you."
Trailing 14-3, USU answered quickly. Robert Turbin ran for a school-record 96-yard touchdown on first down — untouched, right up the middle — to put the Aggies back in contention with 5:17 remaining in the first quarter.
"I hated it. But it's a mental mistake and in this game you can't make mental mistakes like that," said linebacker Stevenson Sylvester, who led the Utes with nine tackles. "We got it fixed and we're hoping that never happens again."
The 14-10 score didn't hold firm for long.

this was great
I've never actually been to King John's Castle but I'm here in my Technology class and I happened to stumble across this website so I decided to write something on it. I live in Limerick and King John's Castle is located there, so anything in Limerick will be the best.
King Johns Castle
Entry is through the Visitors Centre. First you walk though a static display explaining about the castle's history, then a slide show and up to the second floor to hear a story and see some wooden carved figures (with cracks in them). Then onto a 5 min film where actors are placed in front of drawings and act out certain parts of the war against the Jacobites. Unfortunately when we watched it the picture kept sticking and the voiceover kept going.
Out to the courtyard where there are the obligitory stocks for photos and several other 'props'. Other than the brochure we were given, there were no signs to say what was what. We entered one area where a dusty figure of the king was being interviewed re the Magnacarta. Best not to look too closely as the feature was tired and cobwebby. Next we went down to the mint where similar old, tired and cobwebby props were placed. A voice recording was tripped when we entered. Sadly, this was stuck like a broken record and just stuttered over the same word, over and over and over....until we left before we went mad. We saw the diggings at the end of the courtyard, where the archiologists had been. We were so disgusted that we didn't bother with the last part. We reported the audio to the front desk, but they didn't seem very interested. Would we go again? No. Would we recommend it? No. Is it worth the 9 Euro each? NO.

King John's Castle
King John's Castle was built in the 1200s to guard the bridge over the River Shannon and town of Limerick, but was heavily damaged during the Great Siege of 1642. It has been extensively rebuilt and is now a museum and interpretive center. There are numerous historical reinactors in the castle demonstrating trades and traditions from the 1500s.

King John's Castle
Built in the 1200's on King John's orders, the castle is well preserved. Right on the banks of the Shannon, it was designed to defend the river crossing, and the views of Limerick and the river from the ramparts make it worth the visit. A museum is attached and several archaeological digs are underway in main courtyard. The museum and the castle won't take more than a few hours to explore and then you can take the 5 minute walk over to St Mary's Cathedral, the other must see sight in Limerick.
I had a personal connection I wasn't aware of until recently. My grandfather was housed in the temporary city built within the courtyard during the potato famine.
Note: A cousin just emailed me that I have been calling the castle St. John's rather than King John's. Talk about Ugly Americans! Sorry Seamus - never my intent to deify anyone, especially old King John!
Directions: North end of Limerick, an easy walk from city center.

King John's Castle
Before 1200 there were large earthen defences erected on high ground to defend the river crossing. Between 1200 – 1212 King John's Castle was planned and built. It was repaired and extended many times in the following centuries. In 1642 the Great Siege devastated Limerick and the castle. Siege mines weakened the front wall (East curtain wall) of the castle and countersiege mines carried out during the later and subsequent sieges. To date over 1,000 objects have been excavated including skeletal remains of the siege period. On show are pieces of jewellery, pottery cannon and musket balls dating to the period. A replica of a 750 year old gold stirrup ring, (the original of which will be on display in the neighbouring Civic Museum and is in mint condition) is also on display.
Directions: Short walk from the city centre. Just ask a local for directions.
King John's Castle - the lower level?
These passageways were apparently located beneath the castle's courtyard. In the back you can barely see a partially collapsed passageway that supposedly led to the hidden back door at the water's edge - the river Shannon is just outside the right wall in this photo.
King John's Castle
This was my first castle. Ever! Yes, till I came to Limerick, I've never been to a real castle before, the hodgepodge that Dublin Castle is today nonewithstanding. I was surprised by how small it really was, for some reason I always expected a castle to be bigger. I was still enthralled by it. Just walking around it, and realizing that people walked, ate, slept, and died on these very same stones 800 years prior is mind-boggling.
The castle was originally built around 1210, on orders from England's King John. While some of it has deteriorated over the years, a large portion of the castle and its walls still remains and is open for tours. There are also several archaeological digs that are ongoing and can be visited, unearthing huts that actually predate the castle that were buried when it was being built.

King's Island & King John's Castle
King's Island is the original Viking settlement, it used to be known as Englishtown. King Johns Castle and St Mary's Cathedral is located on this little island in the Shannon in the heart of Limerick.
Trust me, they are so into rugby in that part of town!! :) You can follow the Medieval walks signposted around the Island. The Island isnt big but it's an integral part of Limerick city and it's history. Thomond Bridge is the bridge you see in the photo, connecting the Island to the north side of the city
Directions: From O'Connell St, go down Patrick St towards Clare St/Dublin road but turn left at the bridge and you're on the island.

King John's Castle was built...
King John's Castle was built in 1200-1212. The visitor's center sort of sticks out like a sore thumb from this magnificent site, but it is interesting to hear of the history of the area, and the role the castle played in it. The views from the castle walls are magnificent.

Russia Stocks Fall First Day in 7 as Lukoil Retreats With Crude
Russian stocks fell for the first time in seven days, as crude producer OAO Lukoil tumbled amid a decline in oil and concern that a deadlock over the U.S. budget may curb economic growth.
The Micex Index retreated 0.3 percent to 1,462.87 by the close in Moscow. Oil and gas stocks lost 0.3 percent on average, the biggest decliners among industry sectors. Preferred shares of OAO Sberbank, the nation's largest lender, lost 1.1 percent, while OAO Gazprom dropped 1.1 percent. AFK Sistema was the biggest decliner at 2.4 percent. Lukoil, which has the largest weighting on the index at 14 percent, fell 1 percent, the most in a month.
Bank and energy stocks retreated after House Speaker John Boehner told reporters in Washington said Republicans have "some serious differences" with U.S. President Barack Obama's budget proposals. Federal Reserve bond purchases cannot offset the full effect of the so-called fiscal cliff, Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said. Crude, Russia's chief export earner, dropped as much as 0.8 percent to $86.06 a barrel in New York after rising the most in two weeks yesterday.
"During his speech yesterday Bernanke made clear that the issues of the slowing economy and fiscal cliff remain, this cooled investor optimism toward Russia," Viktor Markov, an analyst at Kapital Asset Management LLC, said by phone from Moscow. "Oil fell on Bernanke's statements, it was trading at expensive levels."
Optimism Faded
The Micex rose as much as 0.4 percent earlier. The dollar-denominated RTS Index retreated 0.5 percent to 1,499.68, the most since Dec. 4. Standard & Poor's GSCI Index lost 0.3 percent.
The number of shares traded on the Micex was 53 percent above the 10-day average, Bloomberg data show.
The initial optimism to the Fed's plans "later faded as the fiscal cliff reared its ugly head, pressuring risk sentiment," Maxim Korovin and Anton Nikitin, VTB Capital analysts, wrote in an e-mailed report today.
OAO Pharmacy Chain 36.6, Russia's biggest drugstore chain, climbed as much as 4.6 percent before closing up 0.4 percent at
33.82 rubles. The volume of shares traded exceeded 230,000, equivalent to 1.9 times the three-month average. Drugstore retail sales increased 4 percent in the first nine months of this year to 10.94 billion rubles, the company said in a statement today.
EON Russia, a unit of Germany's largest utility, rose 2.7 percent to 2.50 rubles, the biggest Micex gainer. The company may pay its "entire" 2012 net income as dividends, Interfax reported yesterday, citing Ulf Backmeyer, deputy general director of finance, economics in Russia. Alfa Bank cited the company as its top sector pick on "healthy" dividend expectations.
Rostelecom, Dvorkovich
OAO Rostelecom shares advanced after Russian Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich urged the telecom operator's board and Telecommunications Ministry to improve cooperation and work on the company's merger with Svyazinvest, according to a government statement after the meeting yesterday. The shares rose 0.8 percent to 118.32 rubles.
Telecom stocks climbed 0.3 percent on average. OAO Mobile TeleSystems increased 0.3 percent to 239.47 rubles.
The Market Vectors Russia ETF, the largest dedicated Russian exchange-traded fund, rose 1 percent to $29.35 yesterday, the highest level since Oct. 18. The RTS Volatility Index, which measures expected swings in the stock futures, slipped 1.5 percent to 22.3 points.
VimpelCom Ltd., the world's sixth-biggest mobile phone company by subscribers, slipped yesterday 1.7 percent to $11.06 in U.S. trading.
VimpelCom and the Algerian government have formed a new company to operate VimpelCom's Orascom Telecom Holding SAE's local unit, Vincenzo Nesci, chairman of Orascom-Telecom Algerie, also known as Djezzy, told reporters yesterday in Algiers. The new company, Optimum Telecom Algerie, is 51 percent owned by Algeria with the remaining portion held by VimpelCom, Nesci said.
The Micex trades at 5.5 times estimated earnings after gaining 4.3 percent this year. That compares with a multiple of
10.6 times for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which has added 14 percent.
Russian equities have the lowest valuations based on estimated earnings among 21 emerging markets tracked by Bloomberg.

Exeter, UK
ABC is making up for lost time on its long-brewing Charlie's Angels remake: Just a week after greenlighting the pilot for the revival of the hit '70s series, the network has found its first Angel.
Deadline reports that General Hospital co-star Annie Ilonzeh will play Kate, a smart but serious ex-cop and martial arts master who's one of three sexy private eyes — Abby and Marisa are the other two — employed by a mystery man in Miami. Smallville collaborators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar are writing and producing the pilot. Gossip Girl's Mark Piznarski is reportedly being courted to direct.
Ilonzeh, 27, has appeared in episodes of Entourage, Melrose Place and How I Met Your Mother, and had a minor role in Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief.
The original Charlie's Angels aired on ABC from September 1976 to June 1981, becoming a runaway hit in its first three seasons before declining sharply in popularity for its final two. The series transformed the three original Angels, Farah Fawcett, Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith, into superstars, and spawned a cottage industry of related merchandise, from dolls and posters to board games and novelizations. It also inspired the 2000 movie Charlie's Angels and the 2003 sequel Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle.
The TV remake is executive-produced Drew Barrymore and Nancy Juvonen, producers of the big-screen revivals, and Leonard Goldberg, one of the producers of the original series.
I'm looking forward to this relaunch–cautiously optimistic, I must say. I thought the recent films were played too broadly for laughs, so I'm hoping for something more in line with, say, "Alias," "Covert Affairs," and "Nikita" in terms of tone.

Gay marriage: Britain, France in surprise contrast
LONDON The French like to make fun of the British, joking about their repressed ways in matters of the heart. But when it came time to debate same-sex marriage, it was France that betrayed a deep conservative streak in sometimes violent protests while the British showed themselves to be modern and tolerant.
With little fanfare or controversy, Britain announced Wednesday that Queen Elizabeth II hardly a social radical had signed into law a bill legalizing same-sex marriages in England and Wales. France has also legalized gay marriages, but only after a series of gigantic protests attracting families from the traditional heartland that revealed a deeply split society.
Official word that the queen had approved the bill drew cheers in the usually sedate House of Commons.
This is a historic moment that will resonate in many peoples lives, Equalities Minister Maria Miller said in a statement. I am proud that we have made it happen and I look forward to the first same sex wedding by next summer.
There were British political figures and religious leaders vehemently opposed to gay marriage but the opposition never reached a fever pitch, in part because the same-sex marriage bill had broad public support and the backing of the leaders of the three major political parties. In fact, it was Prime Minister David Cameron, leader of the tradition-minded Conservatives, who proposed the legislation in the first place.
The picture was completely different in France. Few people had expected legalizing gay marriage to face much of a hurdle. French polls had shown for more than a decade that the concept enjoyed majority public support, and Paris has had a gay mayor for years.MORE IN Wire NewsPHILADELPHIA Bernie Sanders devoted followers were careful to pick up after themselves and...

Looks like Andy is putting no effort at all into it. He hasn't even broken a sweat!
Fireflies at Lake of the Ozarks, MO and Grand Ledge Michigan
In Malta we have a traditional pastry for Easter called figolli, they are made of two layers of sweet pastry with marzipan in the middle, then cut into shapes like bunnies, lambs hearts etc with special cutters then after baking they are covered with icing and decorated and topped up with half a chocolate egg. you can buy them ready made, but Connie is making our own this year, one for us and 6 for our clan
@Number Six
Good luck in your ventures
On Sunday 30 to 40 big wigs were admitted to hospital with burning eyes and partial blindness during a political rally including our PM and most of his cabinet

Thought Andy did most of the beatings.
@Number Three
On a visit to Pope Francis our ex President had his grandson with him and had bought him a toy dinosaur to keep him quite
The kid gave the Pope his toy to play with
Flo won't be complaining!
Sounds like Earplugs would be helpful too. Earwig-plugs.
Re: the Gaffer's Speech: We've got a colloquialism about needing Starch in certain body-Joints; and another which stipulates effort requires 'Elbow-Grease'.
Sounds delicious
Maybe Andy is the only one that hasn't fallen down and grabbed his leg in agony. Or is that only the professionals?
Sounds delicious.
Over here the traditional Easter treat are these.
And after we've had our fill of them they are great fun to put in the microwave and watch them puff up. If one is very sophisticated they can put toothpicks in them and have jousting expositions.
the doggy wee wee is blindin' me.. Some Idiot forgot to put in UV filters ..and I can't see, temporarily
I have UV filters………. commonly known as "sunglasses" !
Not familiar with your reference however.
In my "old days" I would be all over Connie's candy !!!
Sounds naughty, but please don't take it as such.

Kennedy Center Honors MacLaine, Joel, Santana, Hancock, Arroyo
Published: Sunday, December 8, 2013 at 10:04 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, December 8, 2013 at 10:04 p.m.
WASHINGTON | The "Piano Man" who became one of the world's best-selling artists of all time with such hits as "Just the Way You Are," "Uptown Girl" and "Allentown" was awarded the nation's highest honor Sunday for influencing American culture through the arts.
Billy Joel joined Carlos Santana, Herbie Hancock, opera star Martina Arroyo and actress Shirley MacLaine in receiving the Kennedy Center Honors. All of them have been playing music, dancing or singing since they were children — and they have never stopped.
Joel said the honor stands apart from his six Grammys.
"This is different. It's our nation's capital," he told The Associated Press. "This is coming more from my country than just people who come to see me. It's a little overwhelming."
The 64-year-old musician born in the Bronx has been playing the piano since he was a boy, growing up on New York's Long Island. There was always music in the house, he said. His mother sang. His father played the piano.
Impressing girls, though, is what hooked Joel into making a career of music, he said.
Joel just announced a 2014 concert series at Madison Square Garden in New York "to avoid schlepping around the world," but he still plans to play concerts nationwide.
President Barack Obama saluted the honorees Sunday night, and top entertainers offered tribute performances for each honoree. The show will be broadcast Dec. 29.
"The diverse group of extraordinary individuals we honor today haven't just proven themselves to be the best of the best," Obama said. "Despite all their success, all their fame, they've remained true to themselves — and inspired the rest of us to do the same."
Santana, 66, a Mexican immigrant who began learning English from American television, is one of only a few Latinos who have received the honor so far.
Hancock, 73, got his start at the piano at age 7 while growing up in Chicago. Soon he was playing Mozart and discovered jazz in high school. He joined the Miles Davis Quintet in 1963 and later set out to create his own sounds, fusing jazz, funk, pop, gospel, soul and the blues. He has won an Oscar and 14 Grammy Awards so far.
Arroyo found opera while imitating the singers outside an opera workshop when she was growing up in Harlem. Soon she was signing a contract with New York's Metropolitan Opera and had a breakthrough with "Aida" in 1965. She went on to star in the great opera houses of London, Paris and Vienna.
MacLaine, 79, has been acting on stage and screen for six decades ever since she began ballet at age 3. Her film debut came in 1955's "The Trouble with Harry," directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and she won the Oscar for best actress for "Terms of Endearment" in 1983. More recently she's been playing a role in "Downton Abbey" on PBS.
MacLaine's younger brother Warren Beatty also has won a Kennedy Center Honor, making them the first brother and sister pair to receive the honor.

Part 3 of Hard Knock TV's exclusive in-depth interview with Ab-Soul starts with Ab talking to Nick Huff Barili about the inspiration for his song Double Standards, which he said is the story of his generation. As the interview continues Soulo talks about sneaking backstage and meeting Nas for the first time. Though Ab says Nas wasn't up on his music yet, it was cool to be a fan and that eventually he hopes to work with Nasir. Ab-Soul elaborates on the song Pineal Gland saying that it's not about smoking DMT but about the natural DMT that one gets during heavy REM sleep. Soul also cautions that anyone thinking about trying DMT the drug should do their research first so they know more about what they might be getting into. Ab-Soul concludes the interview talking about Black Hippy, his next project with JMSN and saying that he is still not EATING yet.

Explosive nucleosynthesis at strong magnetic field

The effect of a strong magnetic field on the synthesis of chemical elements is considered at conditions of nuclear statistical equilibrium. The possibility to employ the produced radionuclides to probe the transient ultra-magnetized astrophysical plasma in supernovae and near neutron stars is analyzed. For iron group nuclides the magnetic modification of the nuclear structure shifts a maximum of nucleosynthesis products towards smaller mass numbers approaching titanium. Signals of 44Ti radioactive decay in the gamma-spectra of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A are revealed from the Integral IBIS/ISGRI observational data. The determined gamma-ray fluxes for 44Sc* lines with energies 67.9keV and 78.4keV correspond to the initial 44Ti volume (3.3 −0.7 +0.9 ) × 10−4 solar masses that corroborates the magnetic enhancement of isotope production at a field constrained on conditions of supernova explosion.

Mining returns to Mindarie
- From: The Advertiser
- December 18, 2012
MINING has restarted at the Mindarie mineral sands mine more than three years after the mine's previous owners went into administration.
Chinese company Orient Zirconic, trading as Murray Zircon, acquired the mineral leases last year and has since been rehabilitating the site in the Murray Mallee between Loxton and Karoonda.
The project's previous owner, Australian Zircon, caused tensions with the local community by not carrying out the required rehabilitation of cropping land.
Mineral Resources and Energy Minister Tom Koutsantonis said Murray Zircon had been working with the Department for Manufacturing, Innovation, Trade, Resources and Energy to address landholder concerns.
"Since taking over the mining leases, Murray Zircon has undertaken significant rehabilitation works on the previously mined areas allowing them to be replanted with crops," he said. "The confidence required to allow mining to co-exist with farming activities would not be possible without their efforts . . . "
The heavy mineral concentrate mined at the project will be exported to China.

I have a Matlab 2009a folder(with setup.exe) on Unbuntu 11.04. How can I install matlab on Ubuntu?
migrated from stackoverflow.com Nov 24 '11 at 23:18
This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
A file ending with '.exe' is aimed for the Windows operating system. It will never run natively on any flavor of Linux. You need to get the Linux binaries of MATLAB.
Your may check System Requirements - Release 2011b for further information. Apart from the Solaris support, there hasn't been much change since 2009a.
