Cabarete Kitesurf Holiday Overview
What makes Cabarete one of the best kitesurfing destinations is the combination of flatwater, great wave sailing, and 'downwinders'. Alongside the endless list of non wind activities. Cabarete is typically Caribbean with long sandy beaches and warm clear seas. Apart from the Dominican Republic being a well known holiday destination, it is also famous for having the second best coffee in the world. Grown in the mountains of the most mountainous island in the Caribbean, which also make for some beautiful excursions, such as mountain biking and cascading the natural waterfalls. The country is very un-spoilt, and you only need to head a mile out of town to be in a completely undeveloped area.

The Kitesurfing In Cabarete
A kitesurf Holiday in Cabarete is suitable for a learn to kitesurf Holiday as well as for the more experienced Wave Rider.
The Wind In Cabarete
The wind is modest in the morning and gains strength at midday under the influence of the trade wind. The best wind conditions are in January–March and June–September. The offshore reef is about 600 meters off the beach and the flat water stretching inbetween is all that slalom enthusiasts could wish for. From May–October the wind blows mainly sideshore from the right at 4-5 Beaufort. From November–April it mainly blows cross-offshore from the right and is less constant, but instead wave freaks can ride down waves up to 4 meters high. At this time, the conditions are perfect for intermediate wave riders and wave freaks. Upwind of the center there is a shallow water section where beginners and intermediates feel comfortable and the tuition conditions are excellent. Beginners and intermediates can practice close to the shore while more experienced windsurfers can conquer the waves on the reef.
Thanks to the mobile kitesurfing school it is always possible to choose the perfect spot depending upon the wind and wave conditions as well as your individual needs. In this way we can guarantee ultimate fun for kitesurfers of all levels. Surfing is regarded as a great alternative for all kitesurfers, and Cabarete has always been a hot surfing spot. The beginners spot, where the waves break on a sand bank, is only 5 minutes away from the center. The shallow water allows you to easily walk through the waves.
Activities In Cabarete
Away from the Kitesurfing, many people visit Cabarete for the spectacular diving, especially up towards Las Terrenas which is a 2 hour drive east along the north coast where you will find numerous beaches to explore. Five minutes from Cabarete are cliff jumping spots, you may need to ask a local where to turn off but they're easy to find. Hire a care and drive 30 minutes east along the coast you will find a stunning beach 'Playa Grande' where you can buy fresh lobster, a whole coconut ready to drink, and dine with your table on the beach. When the swells roll in this is also an insanely beautiful surf spot, we can only recommend a sunrise surf here! A little further on from 'Playa Grande' is 'Blue Lagoon' which is legendary for being bottomless. Scientists have allegedly made all sorts of tests and cannot find a bottom, maybe a little eerie but still stunning, the water is crystal clear so be sure to take your waterproof camera. Of course there is also a swing there. A short walk form Blue Lagoon is another smaller, with a bottom lagoon which has small, clear caves to explore. Apart from the above there are also numerous other excursions available, most of which you may want to use a tour operator. These excursions, include 'El Limon' the stunning waterfall, '27 waterfalls', Mountain biking, Kayaking, Abseiling 'The Magic Mushroom'. If you visit Cabarete between January and March you may be lucky to catch the Whale season which is spectacular. The whale watching happens at the Semana Peninsula, however some lucky people have reported seeing the whales from Cabarete bay when Paddle Boarding.
Nightlife In Cabarete
The row of diverse bars along Cabarete beach always offers evening entertainment. Friday night is the most popular night for partying, with most of the drinks offers rolling. The standard of food is superb, especially the seafood. Between the restaurants on the beach and the others in Cabarete, you will find a real diversity of food brought in from people all around the world, German speciality meat dishes, to Venezuelan Arepas, your bound to find something new to try.
Kids In Cabarete
Cabarete is ideal if you have kids, especially in the summer months as there is very little shore-break and kids camps along the beach which introduce your kids to a variety of Watersports, the only one being excluded is Kitesurfing, but do include Windsurfing, Paddle Boarding, Body Boarding, Sailing, Kayaking, and more. So you will never have to worry about the whole family being entertained.

Highs today will top out in the upper 70s to around 80 away from the Great Lakes, which is near to slightly above normal for this time of year. Along the Great Lakes, highs will be in the low to mid 70s. Overnight lows will be cool once again, but perhaps a little warmer as PWAT values climb higher with the low center sliding slowly eastward. Lows will likely be in the upper 40s to around 50 inland. Elsewhere, expect lows to be mainly in the 50s to around 60 with the warmest temperatures along the Great Lakes shorelines. For reference, average lows this time of year are right around the mid 50s. .LONG TERM...(Sunday through Friday) Issued at 453 AM EDT SAT JUL 30 2016 Weak mid/upper level troughing over the southern Great Lakes and ridging over northern Ontario will leave a sfc ridge in place across the nrn lakes through Sunday resulting in dry weather and temperatures near seasonal averages. The forecast into next week will be influenced by a trough lifting from BC and the Pacific northwest into nrn Manitoba Tue that will be reinforced by another vigorous shrtwv Wed into Thu. Strengthening srly flow and moisture advection will bring warmer and more humid conditions into the region along with an increasing chance for shra/tsra as a frontal boundary nears and eventually pushes through the area and weak shrtwvs brush the area. Sunday through Monday, expect gradual warming with max temps climbing a few degrees each day. On Mon, max temps will generally be in the low/mid 80s. Dewpoints will also increase into the lower 60s Mon. Some models are producing isold pcpn near or over parts of the fcst area from Saturday night into Monday. Confidence is low with any weak shrtwvs that may affect the region. In addition, the shallow moisture profile will also not be favorable for diurnal convection. Tuesday-Thursday, temperatures are expected to climb into the mid 80s with dewpoints into the mid and upper 60s. A weakening front nearing the area and a more zonal flow with the potential for some weak shrtwvs moving through the area may support some sct shra/tsra into mainly the west Tue that could spread to the east by Tue night. Mid level ridging ahead of the shrtwv lifting into srn Canada will reduce pcpn chances Wednesday. Confidence is lower by Wednesday night into Thursday as the slower more amplified ECMWF keeps the area dry while the flatter GFS/GEFS brings the front more quickly into the nrn Lakes and greater shra/tsra chances with strong 850 theta-e advection. The ECMWF suggest that the best shra/tsra chance would be late Thursday into Thursday night as the front moves through. Friday, The models were in agreement that cooler and drier weather with temperatures closer to seasonal averages will prevail in the wake of the front. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Saturday night) Issued at 118 AM EDT SAT JUL 30 2016 Expect VFR conditions and light winds to prevail this fcst period with hi pres dominating.

FBI Washington field office just confirmed gunman was NOT armed with AR15. Spokesperson says 1 shotgun and 2 pistols recovered Pamela Brown (@PamelaBrownCNN) September 17, 2013
"Im deeply disturbed by the fact that I was right."
Just two hours ago I told a man that I have been wrong a lot of times when I wanted to be right but that was never as bad as the times lately when I have been right when I wanted to be wrong. I knew immediately what the result of the 2008 election disaster would be. I can still remember walking around for weeks with a queasy stomach and speaking with a lot of others who seemed to feel the same way. South Carolina seemed to be composed of "two kinds of people", those who lived in FANTASYLAND and thought that pink Unicorns would be spreading free healthcare and money all around and those like me who wondered how long we had before the final shoe drops. We who still dwelled in the real world were shaking our heads in dismay at the fools who thought they had somehow been delivered from evil, we knew that in truth we had been delivered INTO evil.
A Remington 870 even. The best selling shotgun in history, a real icon favored by law enforcement and military. At least he had good tastes in shotguns, Biden should be very proud of him.
Looks like the Dims will have to pray for another shooting in hopes of finding a Tea Party, white guy shooter instead of ending up with one of their own:
"Ritrovato went on to explain that two of them had a close relationship based in part on their differences, specifically race and politics. Alexis was black, Ritrovato is white. Ritrovato described himself as conservative and Alexis is "more of a liberal type" who supported Barack Obama:
I would say things like, 'You know, you are my brother from another mother.' And he would say things like, 'You're my Italian mafia guy from New York.' So we had things we joked about: Aaron wasn't conservative like I am. He was more of a liberal type; he wasn't happy with the former [Bush] administration. He was more happy with this [the Obama] administration — as far as presidential administrations. "

FOLEY, Ala. (AP) - Baldwin County authorities say a 22-year-old Foley man allegedly stabbed his father while trying to steal his TV and sell it for drug money.
A sheriff's spokesman says the father, Barry Garrett, was treated at South Baldwin Regional Medical Center on Tuesday and released.
His son, Thomas Earl Kingsley, was held in the Baldwin County Corrections Center on $10,000 bail. It was not known Wednesday if he had an attorney.
The father-son dispute happened about 10 p.m. Tuesday in Foley.
Investigators say Kingsley grabbed a steak knife and stabbed Garrett in the chest. He's charged with felony domestic violence. If convicted, he could face 10 years to life in prison.

Windproof and breathable fleece.
Durable, soft and thin synthetic suede.
Exclusive pull off system from Roeckl to easily remove the short finger gloves from your hands.
Special palmhand design for very good reins grip when wet and dry. Exclusively from Roeckl.

Soft and compressable fibers that insulate from cold outside air.
These models can be washed without a fabric softener at 30°C in the washing machine. Not suitable for laundry drier.
High mountain tours such as a tours of the Biancograt or an ascent of the Matterhorn mean maximum requirements for the material. Particularly in winter. Hands require particular protection against cold, snow and ice. But mountain climbers need maximum grip precision in order to be able to safely handle rope, karabiners and rope sling. This is a discrepancy resolved by ROECKL SPORTS by means of the extremely technical model Karun. The idea: a hood glove construction with elaborate Thinsulate C40 insulation. Nothing new? You are right. But the numerous technical features make the Karun convincing in practical use. The hood may perfectly and quickly be fastened on the back of the hand. This is done by means of a magnet. The elaborately crafted three-dimensional thumb fourchette is also exceptional. Innovative: Even the thumb is equipped with its own hood. Another highlight is the pull-off aid Pull-Off-System on the palm on the inside of middle and ring finger which is patented by ROECKEL SPORTS. This system helps pulling off the half-finger glove. The back of the hand consists of the new, super-soft Gore Windstopper® Softshell Elastic and Gore Windstopper® Tornado. The palm of the hand is made of the abrasion-resistant, water-proof material Durasense. The silicone print on the palm of the hand of the Karun provides the perfect grip. The integrated knitted cuff fits tight in order to keep the heat inside the glove. In short: Maximum innovation in one single glove.

I feel like this team is realizing there is no room for error and I hope they continue to play like it.
There needs to be a huge sense of urgency, we HAVE TO win the division, if the playoffs go through seattle then its game over there is no chance we will win there.
This next stretch of cake games should put us at 7-2 going into the saints game but that's easier said than done...it'll be a huge test to see if we can take care of business and win the games we are supposed to win because we need to make sure we win this division and we can only do that by winning every game we are supposed to win and also win some big ones on the road (like at saints and redskins)
I'm excited to see if this team has the laser focus to show up for every game as the schedule gets easier and take care of business because that's the only way we are going to win this division and not have to go to seattle for the playoffs.
last yr they struggled with this winning 2 losing 1 winning 2 losing 1...i'm hoping this team this year has a bigger sense of urgency with seattle's threat and takes care of things

Heart Valve Replacement Surgery: Life After Surgery - Topic Overview
After you have recovered from your heart valve replacement surgery, you will probably feel better than you did before you had the surgery.
It may take several weeks for your recovery, including healing your incisions. Then you should be able to resume most of your normal activities.

Sam Morton: Living With Heart Disease
I've discovered that most of the time, my life with a chronic disease can be much like everyone else's. I am 41 years old. I am a father, husband, uncle, nephew, and son. I am an ex-cop. And, to either the bemusement or bewilderment of my friends and family, I am a former professional wrestler-the raucous, fake, TV kind.

Read the Sam Morton: Living With Heart Disease article > >
After surgery, you will have regular doctor visits to check your heart and your new valve. You will take blood thinning medicine to prevent blood clots after surgery. And you might need antibiotics to prevent infections.
Keep in mind that an artificial valve will not work as well as an undamaged natural valve. So even though your heart function is improved, it may not recover to completely normal levels. If your heart was already severely affected before your surgery, you may still have symptoms of heart disease.
Regular doctor visits
After surgery, you will have regular checkups so your doctor can check your heart and your heart valve.
It is important to know that you aren't cured after you have had a valve replacement. You still have a serious heart condition that must be monitored.
Your doctor will check for signs of a problem with the valve. This includes checking to make sure the valve is still working well. Tissue valves wear out over time. They last about 10 to 18 years. Mechanical valves typically do not wear out. They usually last 20 years or more. But other problems might happen with a mechanical valve, such as an infection. As long as you have an artificial valve, you and your doctor will need to watch for signs of problems.
Your doctor will check the new valve periodically for signs that it is wearing out or that there are other problems. Your doctor will ask you how you are feeling and if you have any new symptoms or changes in symptoms. These symptoms are similar to those that signaled that the original valve was wearing out: a heart murmur and sometimes symptoms such as shortness of breath and fainting. These signs may be spotted during visits to your doctor.
You might have tests, such as an echocardiogram, to check how well your heart is working. Your doctor will also check for other heart problems.

ACTA is dying, but a replacement is in the wings
Pirate Party warns of ACTA 2
THE POPULARLY REVILED Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) might be nearly dead, but the forces behind it are already working on a replacement.
A seminar organised by David Martin, the European Parliament's rapporteur on ACTA last week concluded that ACTA should not be approved and is dead in the water. That should be the end of the draconian treaty, but it is not warns the Pirate Party UK.
"This is heartening news for Pirates and other champions of civil liberties, but the fight is not yet over," said Pirate Party UK leader Loz Kaye.
"A leaked document from the G8 (PDF) suggests that there is already work in progress on a 'new ACTA'. Whilst this document seems much more closely focused on dealing with fake medicines, there are still several areas of concern."
The Pirate Party has already warned that such agreements, which could severely limit the spread and use of generic medicines, and put people's lives at risk, and here it repeats that argument.
"IP enforcement attempts should never get in the way of saving lives," said Kaye. "The leaked document fails to distinguish between 'fake' medicines and 'generic, but disputed' medicines - where the distinction is that the former are clearly dangerous, whereas the latter are effective treatments."
Kaye added that although it is important to stop the sale of fake drugs, the same cannot be said of generic ones. "Disputed-patent drugs can be of huge value in dealing with developing world health crises, and one of the problems with ACTA was that it would interfere with the availability of these drugs for such emergencies," he explained.
Of course the bulk of the arguments around the original ACTA concerned its approach to 'piracy' and 'pirates', which was to kick it and them in the face. Also controversial was the way it was weighted in the direction of the private sector. Kaye said that both these elements are present in the new document.
"There are a number of throwaway references to 'counterfeiting... and piracy'," he said. "The document makes reference to 'voluntary actions by the private sector', and speaks of using credit-card processors and PayPal to block payments to organisations accused of counterfeiting."
The leaked G8 document is dubbed the "G-8 Initiative to Strengthen Enforcement against Cross-Border Counterfeiting and Piracy". It makes reference to ACTA, proposes that stronger controls are needed, and recommends "the establishment of business-friendly voluntary best practices". µ

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
A wide assortment of unrelated scenes make up the bulk of this video. From wet T-shirt tease to gaping assholes and heavy anal, this has a lot of just about everything. The highlight is an interracial scene at the end with T.T. Boy bravely taking on a multitude of black beauties in and around a limo that, hopefully, was Simonized beforehand. This scene is worthy of a pre-nom. Otherwise, a good entry in a series that has lots of potential. Retailers take note of another emerging gonzo series worth putting in your stores.

Comments about 'Ask Angela: He didn't serve a mission, does that mean I shouldn't marry him?'

It's hard for anyone outside a relationship to give advice to those that
are in one--and that includes your mother, Angela, and me. If you're asking
yourself the right kinds of questions (Angela has suggested some good ones),
you'll know what to do.
The unspoken concern here is: will Mom accept the marriage if that's what you decide to do. Most parents will, and most will support children if the child finds out (too late) that the marriage was a mistake. If those are part of your concerns, read the 122nd Section of the D & C & remember that life throws us challenging experiences for our own good. This won't be the last, and probably not the worst, challenge you'll have. But if you're committed to family, faith, and the Lord, you'll be alright.
(Incidentally, many don't graduate from college, don't get their Eagle Scout, don't quarterback their high school football team--and they turn out just fine!)

I had a friend, who served a mission, was an AP, came home, got into law school, started a law practice, embezzled money from a pension fund, ended up on drugs and died from an overdose. True story. He was married (temple marriage) with four children at the time of his death. Should his wife not have married him because he was a RM?

It seems like a key is why he didn't serve a mission. If it's because
he thought the "rule" didn't apply to him for some reason, then
that would be cause for concern - which other rules also won't apply in the
future? Those who view duties and commandments as a buffet from which they may
pick and choose can be highly unpredictable.
If it's because of a medical reason, that's different.

Most young men that go in a mission don't "Love the Lord". They go
because they turned 18/19 and it seemed like the right thing to do.
I'd feel badly for any young woman that married half the elders in my mission. Work with what you know. If you have any understanding and connection with your feelings you'll know what to do. This isn't a question for someone else, follow your heart.

Typical judgemental attitude of Utah Mormons who don't properly understand
Gospel principles and just go along with the Church because it's a part of
their culture. I joined the Church at 28 and despite my strong desire to serve a
mission my bishops and stake president have consistently told me that I'm
too old. Is that my fault? No. But if I was out in Utah I sure as heck would get
judged for it.
If a woman would throw away a good man because of past choices he has made, no matter how much he loves the Gospel and The Lord, SHE is not good enough for HIM. End of story. I have been blessed to find someone who doesn't care about my lack of missionary service, and appreciates the member missionary work I do every day. I hope our children serve missions, and I will strongly encourage them to do so from the day they are baptized onward.

Missionary service is not necessarily the good housekeeping stamp of approval.
There are many who serve, even in the raise the bar era, who due to their own
personality, work ethic, or level of devotion to the work, do not return with
honor. My mission president once spoke to our mission conference in an address
he called, RMs -- A to Z, meaning returned missionaries return home after their
mission at all levels of spirituality, commitment, and yes, testimony. He was
seeking to help us improve our perspective of what kind of missionary we wanted
to return home as.
True that missionary service is one of life's refining fires, but I also know many great and honorable men who did not serve for whatever reason, lack of desire, lack of family support, lack of testimony, but now serve in the Church with unfailing devotion.
Just because he doesn't have The RM stamp of approval doesn't disqualify him from being an excellent choice for eternal companion!

This reminds me of something profound that Gordon B. Hinkley once said to the
young men in a conference priesthood meeting. I have to paraphrase, but it went
something like this: "Young men, be sure you are worthy of our young women.

I agree with what Angela says, but I might add that it might be more important
to know why he didn't serve a mission than the fact that he didn't.
It also might matter as to how open he is to discussing his past. These are
still matters that might be more important to you than to anyone else, including
your mother. The main thing is that marriage is about more than being in love.
Communication matters a lot, usually more to females than males. I have also
been on the side of being so much "in love" that I couldn't think
clearly. Only when I caught my reflection in a glass door unexpectedly, did I
see that I wasn't really happy.
Look into it more in terms of your total relationship; and, as Angela says, make it a matter of prayer and choose for yourself.

I served a mission, But my wife did not. Why should the reverse be any
There are a number of reasons why someone did not serve a mission as a young man. In some cases it involved military service, or health matters, or other things. The important thing is how committed your prospective spouse is to you and to the Lord. If you look at the bios of general authorities, you will find that it is not unusual that one did not serve a mission as a youth, and their first time as a full time missionary was as a mission president, after service as a bishop and stake president. One of the great things about the gospel is that Christ is eternally willing to give us new opportunities to repent and rededicate ourselves to him. Eternally condemning someone for what they didn't do years ago is not what Christ calls us to do.

Although the mother obviously wants the best man for her daughter, she's using set-in-stone criteria to determine his worthiness; however, she isn't the one marrying him. What really jumped out at me was the writer's comment that the man she loves and wants to marry also deeply loves the Lord. So then, why didn't he serve a mission? My thought is that maybe he loved the Lord enough to be honest and recognize that a traditional two-year mission wasn't the best way that he could serve. Maybe it was because of his love for the Savior that he didn't go. I've known many missionaries over the 30+ years since my conversion. Among them, there were some who had a strong testimony of the Church, but they never felt comfortable as missionaries and were ineffectual. Then, there were others who were smooth and silky in their delivery, met all their goals and appeared very effectual, but secretly had no love for the people or the work. If her man stayed home for the right reasons, his was the better choice. Either way, what he feels now matters most.

"Judge not that ye be not judged. For with what judgement ye judge ye shall
be judged"
Just a little reminder for Mom, of a scripture she seems to have conveniently forgotten.
If the local Priesthood Authorities, (Bishop, Stake President) deem him temple worthy. who is Mommy to say otherwise. Even if your boyfriend did something in the past that prevented him from serving, isn't repentance a wonderful blessing we all need throughout our lives.
The decision to marry or not marry your boyfriend should NOT be based on whether he served a mission. I know several RM's that have been married in the temple who have done terrible things to their wives and children. I also know several that did not serve that are wonderful husbands, fathers and some of them are bishops.
Decide to marry or not based on who is is now and how he treats you.

My daughter did marry the "returned missionary" who later got into porn wanted nothing to do with the church. Better men out there who have not served missions.

I too, was raised by parents who thought RM's were the only appropriate
marraige material.
But missions are not for everybody, just as military service is not for everybody. Sometimes missions can cause physical and spiritual damage. There are great young men who would make great husbands and are great husbands, but who didn't fulfill a church mission. I believe we lose many young men to church inactivity around missionary age because church becomes a place of constant pressure to serve a mission-- or constant judgement because they didn't go. Church needs to be more than a factory which just makes cookie-cutter people. Diversity is healthy.

There are plenty of scriptural references addressing the situation. Old
testament Moses (in the specifications portion of the tabernacle) was
specifically told to accept stuff only from those who gave with a willing heart.
Christ talked about those who "served" in the public eye. King
Benjamin put it all together beautifully as he addressed the issue of matching
up service needs with resources.
One of my own kids about fell of the too old mark before he was ready. Another never went. Another just couldn't wait. They all have wonderful families of their own now.
Is your Mom speaking 100% from her love for you, or is she one who wrinkles her nose at a smoker who steps into the chapel? Everyone is struggling with something: some struggles are not quite as obvious as others.
Want to try something that may appease your Mom and test her concerns? Follow the advice I gave to missionaries returning home: don't go find a wife (or husband), search for your Senior Mission companion instead. See if he is willing to plan that with you. Include your spiritual ears in the conversation.

Your judgment of Utah Mormons is as bad the judgment of those that don't serve missions. Please don't clump us all into that category. In my time spent living outside of Utah I have met plenty of other members with that same non-acceptance of non-RMs. With that said, it is a problem in the church, but I have seen a lot of improvement in attitudes toward this issue.

Neil Young sings of the Ponzi scheme: "There's a bailout coming, but it's not for you" and "Keep on blogging 'til the power goes out" and
I am forced to admit that the Neil Young fan in the family is my wife. But who can't love a guy who going release in April an entire concept album on electric cars. The picture is of Young with his '59 Lincoln, which has been converted to an electric hybrid, the Linc-Volt (video here, info here).
You can watch a video of his new single, "Fork in the Road" (here), with the great chorus, "There's a bailout coming, but it's not for you." And it has a lyric that will be CP's unofficial new tagline: "Keep on blogging 'til the power goes out."
So perhaps it's not a surprise that on Thursday, Neil Young News wrote a post, "The secret is now out: We've got a job to do" about Shakey the eco-visionary, the Friedman piece, and CP:
Greendale crystallized Young's career into a single spell-binding album. But, the inconvenient truth of Greendale is that it was "the most important album of 2003 — the musical equivalent of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring"….
And just in case anyone wonders where this is all going, one only needs to take a look at yesterday's New York Times Op-Ed by Thomas Friedman "The Inflection Is Near?" to understand why if one hasn't already figured this all out.
There it is. In black and white. In the New York Times. On a Sunday. On the Op-Ed page.
"The global economy is a Ponzi scheme".
There you have it. The secret is out now. You can read the full details on this startling obvious conclusion on the blog Climate Progress by Joseph Romm, another of our favorite bloggers.
"We created a way of raising standards of living that we can't possibly pass on to our children. We have been getting rich by depleting all our natural stocks — water, hydrocarbons, forests, rivers, fish and arable land — and not by generating renewable flows.
You can get this burst of wealth that we have created from this rapacious behavior. But it has to collapse, unless adults stand up and say, 'This is a Ponzi scheme. We have not generated real wealth, and we are destroying a livable climate …' Real wealth is something you can pass on in a way that others can enjoy."
Neil Young caused some controversy last February at the Berlin film festival when he said:
I think that the time when music could change the world is past. I think it would be very naive to think that in this day and age.
I think the world today is a different place, and that it's time for science and physics and spirituality to make a difference in this world and to try to save the planet.
I can't really argue with that, although I personally believe that everybody needs to — indeed must — contribute to averting the impending energy and climate catastrophe in whatever way they can. Young himself responded to the attacks saying:
Somewhere on Earth a scientist is alone working. No one knows what he or she is thinking. The secret is just within reach. If I knew that answer I would be singing the song.
This is the age of innovation. Hope matters. But not hope alone. In the age of innovation, the people's fuel must be found. That is the biggest challenge. Who is up to the challenge? Who is searching today? All day. All night. Every hour that goes by. I know I am.
Well there may not be one silver bullet solution, and merely transitioning to renewable energy won't make our overconsumption sustainable, but who can argue with the basic premise: The people's fuel must be found.
Keep on blogging 'til the power goes out.

Thanks Joe for linking over to Neil Young News.
Really like your blog.
Your wife has good taste in music.
Light a candle & keep on blogging 'til the power goes out in the free world!
My wife and I went to see Neil in concert a few months ago.
He may be getting up in years (63?), but he's still on fire onstage! If he comes to a venue near you, don't miss him — he puts on a great show.
Just one thing, though — we saw Neil at the brand new Cox Arena at San Diego State U. Being all new and everything, it had high-tech high-definition monitors all around.
Unfortunately, high definition monitors and aging rock-stars is not a good combination! ;)
(And I'd hate to see what Keith Richards looks like in high-def these days.)
Isn't anyone willing to point out gently that an electrified Lincoln is a very bad thing to do for the environment? The Lincoln is an energy guzzler regardless of the carrier of energy that is involved.
The Ponzi schemes that take on a life of their own by feeding on false rumor seem very similar to the uninformed enthusiasm for the electric car, based on the belief that electricity is a free lunch.
It takes fuel to make electricity, mostly that fuel is coal, and much of the heat needed from that fuel is thrown away. Only when future hopes for better electricity sources come to pass such that electricity no longer requires heat from fossil fuels should the Lincvolt be allowed to roam.
We need all the ways of communicating we can get, the message is not getting through. So many do not realize the perilous situation we are in.
They think that when a scientist says that sea level rises will be one and a half meters that this is a worst remotely possible case not a likely one. Yet when you look at the modelling there is virtually no possibility that it will be less than a meter, and there is considerable scope for it to be much higher.
People just do not get that scientists are incredibly conservative by nature, that they only publish what is practically certain. The deniers have successfully equated scientific certainty with a punters "dead cert".
Yes there are many unknowns and assumptions in climate modelling, but as the blanks are filled in the situation looks worse.
So if a song can get the message through, let there be song.
Neil Young has a lot of songs featuring cars. His Linc-Volt is one of the contenders for the Automotive X PRIZE, although I'm not sure if they'll get on the list of officially registered teams; that deadline just passed and the X PRIZE people are going through a big stack of registrations.
Cheering on and supporting the teams like Neil Young's seems to me to be the kind of thing that everyone can participate in, science degree on not.
There's also an X PRIZE Foundation conference with a track on energy and the environment planned at the United Nations (New York) that covers prizes and "open collaboration". Between Neil Young's Auto X PRIZE angle, and the open collaboration aspect of "Keep on bloggin' til the lights go out", it seems a good match.
Thomas Kalil representing the White House is on the program.
high profile people making an effort to raise awareness re presssing issues by doing what they're good at and extending it to pressing issues imo is an effective way in creating a base for decision makers to make decisions more geared towards the common good
the LincVolt is ofcourse an electron guzzler, but it's appeal has the potential to win over many people, communicating the msg that a more sustainable course can be choosen from where one's at
about 0,0001 % is at the stage of hard core environmentalist; the rest of us has to come from further away. For us, LincVolts work.
concidentally today it's Ponzi scheme day.. (http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/wiki/index.php/Zeitgeist_Day,_March_15th_2009)

Send It Down 2 is all about hot sluts taking multiple cocks all at once, and enjoying it profusely.
So, are they up to the challenge? Definitely.
These lades are good for four of five dicks at a clip, and keep popping up with a hunger for more.
Isabella is a young, lithe brunette with a smallish body and an appetite for semen that seems to be endless. She looks great taking a lot of cock in her mouth, and even better bent over taking one from behind while continuing to choke a dick down.
Tiffany Price, too, all tits and attitude, looks like she was born to hold down a stable of lingam all at once, choking that shit down with alacrity, and then begging for a good fucking, which she gets, in abundance.
This is a solid multiple cock scenario release, and all of the ladies look good getting their holes stuffed with dick.

Class 3A, District 11 Girls Soccer: Titans Move On With Double-Overtime Win
Published: Monday, January 13, 2014 at 11:04 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, January 13, 2014 at 11:04 p.m.
LAKE WALES | Tenoroc senior forward Raquel Eplin scored with 7:14 left in the second overtime to lift the Lady Titans to their first district soccer victory in the school's history on Monday night.
"Raquel took a bounce out of the group and took a hard pressure shot at the goal and it went in,'' said Tenoroc coach Tony Pagan.
Tenoroc advanced with the 3-2 victory over Poinciana in the first round of the Class 3A-District 11 girls soccer tournament at Legion Field. The Titans, 7-12-2, will take on top-seeded Lake Wales tonight at 8 at Legion Field in the semifinals.
Hardee topped Sebring, 1-0, on a late goal in Monday's other match and will play No. 2-seed Auburndale tonight at 6.
The championship match is Thursday at 7 p.m.
Eplin, the team's leading scorer this season, fired the kick right at waiting goalkeeper Heidi Gutierrez, who nonchalantly mishandled the potential save. The ball rolled up her arm and over her shoulder, gently into the net for the winner in the 93rd minute.
"We kept up the pressure. We kept up the aggressiveness. We put one more in the goal than they did,'' Pagan said. "I'm very proud.''
Tenoroc senior forward Dana Jordan kept her team in the match with two first-half goals.
"She got a goal on a penalty kick and she shut down their defense,'' Pagan said. "She's a great technical player.''
Eplin came within an inch or two of winning the match with seconds left in regulation. Eplin kicked the ball past Gutierrez at the penalty kick line. It bounced and rolled toward the net, but hit the right post and fell wide just before the whistle ended a scoreless second half and signaled overtime.
Poinciana, 6-13-3, scored first on a goal by freshman forward Catarina "Cat'' Lima, who punched it in just 3 minutes into the match.
Jordan, who also took goal kicks for the Lady Titans, evened the match at 1 with 24 minutes left in the first half, breaking away from midfield and delivering a strong kick into the left corner.
Mayhew made it 2-1 for the Lady Eagles 3 ½ minutes later, outplaying Tenoroc goalkeeper Emily Ramos for the ball and tapping it home.
But Ramos turned away 13 of Poinciana's 15 shots on goal.
Jordan's second goal with 10:07 in the first half was the penalty kick after a hand-ball foul. Jordan powered the ball into the right net while Gutierrez incorrectly guessed left.
In Monday night's second quarterfinal, Hardee's Martha Valadez curled a free kick from 25 yards over the defense, the ball bouncing off the bottom of the top bar and then back up into the net in the closing minute as the Lady Wildcats upset Sebring, 1-0.
Hardee, the tournament's lowest seed, held No. 3 seed Sebring to limited scoring opportunities.
Sebring (10-5) was short-handed, as Haylee Peters, the Lady Blue Streaks' leading scorer, suffered a broken leg in the next-to-last regular-season match. And Marianna Becker, their top defender, played despite injuries from a recent car accident.
Sebring forward Kiersten Waldron missed the Lady Blue Streaks' best scoring chance with 19 minutes left, not converting her kick from point blank range.
Sebring goalkeeper Shannon Bloemsma saved a power kick on goal late in the first half, ending Hardee's most serious threat before intermission and until Valadez's goal.

There's a different layout on the title screen/main menu for every chapter. If you exit the game during a chapter, the corresponding layout will be there.
The time of day in the main menu matches the time of day in the chapter, and the city eventually changes in the background. The flag also gets progressively more tattered. The wailing guitar rendition of the USA national anthem gets progressively more distorted (as though the person playing the guitar was slowly losing their mind).
The sniper is initially not present, then appears, and is seen sitting back and relaxing, then sighting down his rifle at the city. He is then gone, then back with firewood for his overnight fire. He continues to hang around, then has another fire the next night.
Meanwhile, the two largest and nearest towers are set on fire to mirror the events of the 'Rooftops' chapter.
Next, those fires worsen and the sniper is found dead, with two ravens picking at his corpse. The flag is nearly in tatters and the music is mostly sour screeching with the near-final notes of the Star-Spangled Banner being choked out intermittently.
Finally, the towers have collapsed, the flag has fallen and the sniper's body is entirely gone.
I wish there was just feedback or a dead audio hum, but I think it's actually just more really screwed end of the national anthem, perhaps the same bits from the previous main menu layout.

Affordable Paradise: The Secrets of an Affordable Life in Hawaii
by H. Skip Thomsen

3.0 out of 5 stars
Multiply by 2
April 3 2004
This review is from:
Affordable Paradise: The Secrets of an Affordable Life in Hawaii (Paperback)
Just back from a 16 day adventure around the big isle (April '04) and I can easily say that this '01 edition is already way out of date. In most cases you can multiply by 2 on the prices given, so be prepared. Realize that in the last year alone the prices for Hawaii real estate have gone bananas. For example in an article that recently appeared on the Honolulu Advertiser's front page entitled, "Kaua'i housing prices 'insane'" it was shown that the median price for a Kaua'i condo had gone from $227K to $420K in one year! On the big isle, which is the focus of this book, condo prices only went up 38%. Residential property went up 19% As a real estate agent here in Sedona who has already made contacts to be licensed in Hawaii, I was amazed. Using this book and the best guide book of the island, Hawaii, The Big Island Revealed by Doughty and Friedman, we put over 1300 miles on the rental car touring the island. After a week in the the beauty and traffic of Kona (high land prices!), we visited Hawi, Waimea (where I used to live in the 70's), and the Hamakua coast before settling into the constant rain of Hilo. We had 10 inches one day and after 4 straight days of being house-bound we visited Paradise Park and then headed back to south Kona through Volcano for at least the chance of Sunshine.
Affordable Paradise was useful to a point and the author's obvious slant is towards the cheaper housing alternatives found principally in Puna. Even those prices are no longer relevant again by a factor of 2 times for the most part. Just don't get this book and expect to find a paradise home for under $100K that is the value and beauty you may be looking for. That said, we are in escrow now for what we think is a marvelous area - an area this book hardly touches on. The 1/3 acre lots are going for $40-85K and have lots of advantages - 800' elevation, 20-30 inches of rain/year, slower pace. So you can find something and this book will help propel you forward. Also the moving-portion may prove valuable as we are now preparing to relocate. Perhaps the fact that on the next to last day we swam with a dozen delightful dolphins at Hoo'kena Beach makes it easy to see why Hawaii has us ready to return.
Good luck and Aloha!
Breaking the Death Habit: The Science of Everlasting Life

Revolutionary perspective
Jan. 31 2004
This review is from:
Breaking the Death Habit: The Science of Everlasting Life (Paperback)
First discovering this book years ago I purchased a dozen copies and gave them to friends. Not many of these friends actually found that the book spoke to them. Some even dropped me from their list of desirables. How audacious they said, "you must be afraid of dying"! This is not surprising as the idea of physical immortality appeals to very few people. Yet nothing could be further from the truth.
The more I have investigated the subject and applied the principles that Leonard speaks of, the more I become alive and vital, and the more effortless is the enjoyment of this marvelous breathing experience we call "existing as human". This book then is one to read and return to, not for it's literary brilliance as one reviewer complained, but because it creates a new invaluable perspective of our possilities. As the Nobel prize winning poet, Theodore Rhedke (spelling?) says, "What we need are more people who specialize in the impossible." After reading this you may want to explore, Sondra Ray, Robert Coon, Analee Skarin, SATPREM'S The Mind of the Cells, and go to the website, [...] to mention only a few other sources of inspiration.
By the way, I saw Leonard in January 2004 and he looks ageless, relaxed and is full of fun and laughter. Perhaps these principles when applied bear delicious fruit!

Arrangement will see Merck and Serum divide marketing rights for the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. [© Thomas Brugger - Fotolia.com]
Merck & Co. and Serum Institute of India will develop and commercialize a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) for use in developing countries. The companies will form a product advisory committee to oversee activities required to develop and seek approval for PCV and pursue World Health Organization (WHO) prequalification.
Under terms of their collaboration agreement, Merck, through an affiliate, will receive specific rights to market PCV "in certain designated territories," and Serum will receive specific rights in others. Both companies will contribute to the development and manufacture of PCV.
"Working side by side with Serum gives us the best chance of developing and bringing a product to the market that will help to protect more babies and children," says Julie L. Gerberding, president, Merck Vaccines. "Expanding vaccine access to emerging and developing markets is a top priority, and we feel strongly that this collaboration will be a giant step toward impacting the devastation of pneumococcal disease."

Is it possible to grab only videos from the feed and show in wordpress?
Is it possible to grab only videos from the feed and show in wordpress?
It should be possible. I couldn't tell you off the top of my head how to. You would have to get dirty by messing with some code. Which means every time I update the plugin at this point you'd have to update the new plugin file if you were to update.
If you want to tackle it then have a look through Facebook's Graph API. They also have an API Explorer where you can test API calls without messing with code.
The portion of my code that calls Facebook is located in the facebook.php file; lines 476 through 489. More specifically the two lines containing
'/'. $feed_id .'/feed?date_format=U'. The first one if you're using caching; the second if you are not. If the only feed you're displaying is with videos then you could simply change the before mentioned code. If you need to be able to go both ways then add a arguments array that you set to true when you want to limit it to videos.
// Get the feed (maybe it's cached?)
if ( $cache_feed != 0 ) {
// Include cache class
include_once 'caching.php';
// Initiate class
$cache = new ffg_cache();
// Let it do it's magic. (Will return the needed content)
$content = $cache->theMagic(&$this, '/'. $feed_id .'/feed?date_format=U', (($cache_feed * 60)));
} else
$content = $this->facebook->api('/'. $feed_id .'/feed?date_format=U');
Thank you for the fast answer. I will look into it.
No, problem. Just happened to check and see if anyone had posted anything related to my plugin.
I had another thought for how to limit it to just videos. This option would retrieve the normal data then just skip anything not labeled as a video. The downside to this one is that if there aren't any videos in the portion of the feed that it loads it won't have anything to display.
The actual code to add would be added to after the foreach starts on line 521 of the current facebook.php file.
foreach($content['data'] as $item) {//this is currently on line 521
// You would add one of the following if statements.
// If you want to limit all feeds displayed
if ( $item['type'] != 'video' )
// If you only want to limit specific feeds by adding an a value to the args array with the key "video_only"
if ( $video_only == true && $item['type'] != 'video' )
Every feed item has a type associated with it, I'm not sure what all is currently out there. I've got the plugin set up to not be based on the type.
hmm, i wonder, wheter there is an easy way to filter the feed. i don't want every little status, but only those, that contain a message ("<p class='message'>")?
I agree with above. This plugin is awesomely simple but I'd like it to just display the news entered into facebook page rather than "....is now friends with"
Example is http://test.edwardcolver.com/blog/
The next release will remove the "John Doe is now friends with Jane Doe" statuses. Hopefully later this week.
I just release 0.8.1 which filters these status out. Will be available when wordpress lets the update release.

India's Dark Night
The Politics Behind the Power Failure
Indian children study by kerosene lamp. (Rupak De Chowdhuri / Courtesy Reuters)
India can boast of the world's biggest democracy and its oldest culture. And now it has added another superlative: site of history's largest power failure. The country's electricity grid faltered on July 30, 2012 and then again the following day. An area that is home to more than half of the country's population -- between 600 million and 700 million people -- went dark.
Most of those living in that area, however, did not feel the loss. A sizeable portion own backup power sources, either diesel-powered generators or inverters, which work like giant batteries. They charge up when electricity is available; when it isn't, they can be used to power whole households. Those who owned generators and inverters turned them on as soon as the grid failed, and their lives went on as normal.
Another part of the population -- millions of people -- didn't feel the outage because they were never connected to the grid to begin with. The states in northern and eastern India, which bore the brunt of the blackout, have among India's lowest rates of electrification. According to the 2011 census, in Uttar Pradesh, the largest state in India and one of those that lost power, only 24 percent of the state's 25 million rural households are electrified. For comparison, China's household electrification rate had already exceeded 98 percent by 2003.
Millions likely did lose power, though, and transportation ground to a halt, stranding rail passengers and choking already dense streets and highways. In

I know I have to burn the OS X on a CD and then install it. But how do I move all my folders to the SSD?
What folders should I move to the SSD? (besides my personal
Will I have to reinstall all my apps or will I be able to move
them from the old HDD?
What about data of the apps? Will it be saved? (Chrome saved tabs,
Todo lists..)
Can't I move the apps and the Library folder to the new SSD instead of reinstalling all the apps?
If I'll go with a clone:
Should I do the clone before or after I upgrade to Mountain Lion?
Can I do a selective clone?
Will all the system files be replaced? Because I think I kind of
messed up something there (MacPorts, Homebrew, Ruby etc.)... If not, can I do something like "clean install" to the system?
- Will the data of the apps be saved? (Chrome tabs, Todo lists etc.)
That's it for now, thanks.

1996 Boulder Colorado
My Trip with Bernie to Denver
This is the last in a series of my trips to Denver with Bernie. This story happened on the same trip as the photo of the bikini girls and the hunk-a guys in Estes Park.
We arrived in Denver after I got my purse strap untangled from my wheelie luggage and slung if over my shoulder the rest of the trip. Arriving in Denver International Airport (DIA) and getting to your destination is a trip in its self.
1992 Nikiski, Alaska
Have you ever had a dear friend that is such a delight to be around? Have you ever flown with a friend that goes on wonderful trips with you and you have so much fun that you end up laughing ever time you mention, "Bernie and Airports." Everyone should take a trip with Bernie - what fun - well most of the time!
Anchorage Airport, 1996
We had stayed so long on the ground in Denver, because of a lightening, thunder, rain storm, our arrival time in Anchorage was late. This made our connections with the little airplane to Kenai just minutes to spare. As we were getting ready to land, Bernie announces to me, "Now when we land grab your luggage and run in the airport. We have to run to the boarding gate for Kenai, so when we get off, you just follow me." Okay I said.
Boulder, Colorado and Denver International Airport
1937 to 1955 North of Fort Collins, Colorado
North Kenai (Nikiski) 1967 to 2015
My family and I have celebrated the Fourth of July in many places.
In the past 48 years in Alaska, times have changed and so has celebrating the Fourth of July.
In 1967 to 1976 in North Kenai, now Nikiski, our new friends would get together at a lake where most of us resided, built giant bonfires, and multitude of kids and parents would gather to have fun!

A fun Sunday Party in North Nikiski
By Grannie Annie and Bob
Ginger writes:
In 1969 Mom and Dad invited Robert and I (BC-before children) to their house in Fort Collins. Dad wanted to take his brand new camper trailer out for a trial run before they made a trip to Mexico. We went way up the Poudre Canyon and found a campground near the highway and a stream.
Written by my Sister Virginia R. Mcclure,
Boulder, Colorado
Probably in the late 1950'S
My Sister Ginger, (Virginia) wrote that she also went to Kansas with Uncle Guy and Brother John on a later trip to Kansas, than the one I took with them.
I did not go with you and Uncle Guy and John. I went on a separate trip later with them. Unlike you, I did not come home on a train as you did-I have not ridden a train, except for the Narrow Gage rails here in Colorado.
1971, Homer, Alaska
In my "Other Life."
"Hey ya' all. This is Ben. You guys wanna' go clam diggin' in Homer tomorrow?"
"Sure we will meet you in Eagle River." We lived 7 miles up in Eagle River Valley.
