Check into your hotel. The rest of the day is free to start exploring lively Madrid. Tonight, meet your Tour Director and fellow travelers. (D)
Spaniards say the Spanish capital, situated 2,180 feet above sea level, is the nearest thing to Heaven. You have only a day here, and it's certainly worth making the most of it by joining the included guided sightseeing tour: a full panoramic drive by way of the Avenida Mayor, Puerta del Sol, Parliament Square, and a picture stop outside the ROYAL PALACE. The optional trip to Toledo is most rewarding, too. The splendid setting of this old walled city above the Tagus was made famous in El Greco's painting, and even now it's like a great open-air museum of Spanish history and art. (B)
West for a visit to fortified Avila with its many towers. Next is Salamanca, just six miles from the spot where Wellington routed Napoleon's army in 1812. Make sure you spend some time wandering around PLAZA MAYOR the grandest square in Spain. Cross the frontier to Guarda, the highest town in Portugal. From here, descend to the valleys of the Serra da Estrela to Coimbra for an overnight. (B,D)
This morning, enjoy your orientation tour of Coimbra, celebrated for its beauty and ancient university. Later, travel southwards to visit the SANCTUARY of Fátima. En route, stop for an enjoyable wine tasting, then continue to the fortified Obidos, known as the wedding present town before reaching Portugal's capital, Lisbon, for two overnights. (B)
Henry the Navigator made Lisbon the 15th-century "Mistress of the Seas." On the included tour, see his monument, the Belem Tower, the Moorish Citadel, and the impressive Black Horse Square. Spend the afternoon in the Alfama's tile-decorated streets, or take an optional excursion to coastal Estoril and Cascais. (B)
From the rolling plains of the Alentejo with its woodlands of cork and eucalyptus trees, southwards all the way to the brilliant light of Andalusia. Admire its neat white-painted villages and sun-drenched plantations of olives, figs, and almonds, while traveling by way of Beja into magnificent Seville. (B,D)
At leisure in one of Spain's most colorful cities. Perhaps you'd like to spend this morning enjoying an optional sightseeing tour including the main highlights of this vibrant city. (B)
An interesting drive today through Spain's pretty sherry wine region and south to the coast. Here, you will embark the FERRY and cruise across the Strait of Gibraltar to Morocco on the African continent. Motor along what was once the infamous Barbary Coast, then join the new motorway for the drive south to Rabat for an overnight. (B,D)
Today starts with an included guided city sightseeing tour of the country's lively capital. In 2013, Rabat was a filming location for the movie Black Hawk Down. Later, via Settat, reach Morocco's westernmost city: Casablanca. Enjoy a short break in this modern city and see the illustrious Hassan II Mosque—perched dramatically on a platform over the Atlantic Ocean. One of the largest mosques in the world, its minaret soars 689 feet into the sky and part of the mosque's floor is made of glass so worshippers can kneel directly over the ocean's waters. Continue on to the historic oasis city of Marrakesh. (B,D)
The highlight of this morning is included city sightseeing that will make you feel like you've been whisked back in time. Founded in the 9th century, Marrakesh remains a tapestry of ramparts, mosques, palaces, gardens, and vibrant public squares and souks (markets)—where buying and selling and a carnival of entertainment and fascinations occur daily. An optional excursion this evening is the perfect end to the day. (B)
Today, motor through the fragrant cedar forests of the Middle Atlas mountains, where a number of peaks soar above 13,000 feet in elevation. This range is home to the endangered Barbary ape, as well as wild boar and polecats. On your way north to Fez, enjoy glimpses of North African village life reminiscent of Beau Geste. (B,D)
Ancient Fez is a city of outstanding scenic beauty. Visit the MEDINA during included sightseeing this morning, and enjoy the maze of narrow streets through the colorful bazaars and exotic atmosphere. In the afternoon, explore further on your own. (B)
Today, an early departure takes you north for the FERRY back to mainland Spain for an overnight on the Costa del Sol. (B,D)
Drive along the coastal road of the Costa del Sol (Coast of the Sun) and head into the heart of Andalusia to reach Granada. On the agenda: an included guided visit of the ALHAMBRA COMPLEX, a lavish palace and fortress built by Moorish kings. With construction dating back to 889 AD, you'll marvel at its architectural beauty and magnificent gardens. This afternoon, there's time at leisure—why not join an exciting optional excursion? (B,D)
Travel north today through the very heart of Don Quixote's La Mancha, famed for its castle and windmills. Tonight, consider joining your fellow travelers at an optional traditional tapas evening, a fitting way to say Adios to Spain! (B)

Future Fashion Now (FFN) a one-of-a-kind digital platform, where consumers can purchase the latest designer collections straight off the runway, will be launching at this year's Audi Fashion Festival 2012. From 17 – 19 May 2012, consumers can log into www.futurefashionnow.com to watch the live streams of Pre-Spring (Cruise) 2013 shows of the 13 Future Fashion Now designers, and at the same time pre-order and secure their favorite pieces from those collections –months before they hit stores. The pre-order window is one month while delivery will typically take between 6 weeks to 4 months. This is still well ahead of the time these collections typically hit stores in November 2012.
How awesome is that? But is this new? The Future Fashion Now digital platform is definitely new but the concept of buying pieces immediately off the runway is not. Burberry has been doing it consecutively for a few seasons now, while Halston did it in 2008 with a collaboration with Net-A-Porter. Roland Mouret did it too when he first launched the RM by Roland Mouret line during the Fall/Winter 2007/2008 season as well as Rad Hourani during the Spring/Summer 2011 season.
This concept essentially eliminates the buyer as consumers can buy what they want immediately before the buyers actually decide what they want to bring in to their stores next season. Well the question now is do the buyers want to know what is selling out now before they make a purchase? Will this statistic be available to the buyers? I suppose it will be somewhat useful.
That aside, here are the 13 Future Fashion Now designers. They are: Timo Weiland (New York), Jonathan Simkhai (New York), Juma (New York), Maria Francesca Pepe (London), Yeojin Bae (Melbourne), Esther Perbandt (Berlin), Saena (Berlin), Suecomma Bonnie (Seoul), Venna (Hong Kong), Alldressedup (Singapore), Dzojchen (Singapore), Mae Pang (Singapore) and Max Tan (Singapore). These designer labels will be showcasing both at Audi Fashion Festival 2012 and Blueprint 2012. The full schedule of Future Fashion Now shows on offer at Audi Fashion Festival 2012 are listed below. Tickets are priced at S$60 which includes a S$50 FFN voucher and are available at www.gatecrash.com.sg. You can also watch the live streams at www.futurefashionnow.com.

This cast iron steak pan is the perfect vehicle for serving not just sizzling steaks, but anything sizzling or that should stay warm once at the table. Use it to serve fajitas, sizzling chicken, shrimp or tofu or even vegetables or seafood like mussels. Just heat the pan in a hot oven for a few minutes before service and the pan will sizzle when the hot prepared food is added to it. Alternatively, this pan can easily be used as an all-purpose pan during restaurant service for broiling fish, meat and poultry. With a beautiful wooden base and high-quality cast iron construction, this is a great pan to have in any kitchen. * Wooden base and handle are included
This product is coated with a natural oil finish, giving it a distinct advantage over most other cast iron products. As a result of this finish, it is safe to apply heat even without anything inside. Most cast iron products feature an interior that is coated with paint, making them highly prone to peeling when in use and during washing when using abrasive cleaning agents. In contrast, the natural oil finish makes the product resistant to rust and able to withstand extremely high temperatures. Cooking at a higher temperature will result in water extremely quickly, thereby preventing sogginess.
Natural oil finish is a relatively new technology that utilizes flaxseed and linseed oil. The vessel is first fired in extremely high temperature (500 to 600°C or 932 to 1202°F) to create a natural anti-rust finish. It is then coated in a mixture of flaxseed oil, linseed oil and bamboo charcoal and then refired to for additional protection.

Paul Magnette meets with the Director General of the FAO, José Graziano da Silva
Today, Minister Paul Magnette met with the Director General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Mr José Graziano da Silva. The Organization plays a leading role at international level in the fight against hunger and poverty. The FAO is one of the 20 partner organizations of Belgian multilateral cooperation: our country is the third-largest donor as far as humanitarian projects are concerned and the eighth-largest donor in general. In 2012, the contribution from the Belgian Development Cooperation was more than EUR 15 million.
The mandate of the FAO consists of increasing the standard of living by taking measures to reduce malnutrition, to raise agricultural productivity and to increase the quality of life of the rural population. The Organization also functions as a knowledge centre and offers technical assistance by offering its members expertise in the field of sustainable agriculture and food safety.
Minister Magnette congratulated Mr da Silva on his nomination as Director General in January of this year. He assured him that Belgium would continue to attach importance to multilateral cooperation and that our country will continue to support the FAO in its fight against cyclical food crises and for the eradication of hunger and malnutrition.

Beavis and Butt-Head
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
"Beavis & Butt-Head Rule!"
"He never scored....huh huh...that sucks!"
Stanley Beavis and Norman Butt-Head are two of the leading academic researchers of our time. Despite their Ivy League credentials, the two former Marines are clearly on the side of middle America against the entertainment industry. They have been lauded the world over by religious leaders, feminists and others seeking to pass laws to force the mass media to act in the public interest.
The pair were collaborators in a research project demonstrating the deleterious effect of television, particularly music videos, on the youth of America. Their ground breaking work led to the repeal of the First Amendment, allowing the censors to finally clean up the entertainment industry and ban that filthy devil's music.
Early Years
Beavis and Butt-Head first met in 1978, as midshipmen of the Marine Corps in the Naval Academy. Beavis was the class valedictorian of his high school, and a martial arts expert. He majored in chemistry, specializing in pyrotechnics and explosives, and minored in Spanish. Butt-Head graduated third in his high school class, and was a leading running back on the Navy football team (following the touch down he scored that won his high school the state championship). He majored in mechanical engineering, specializing in in ballistics and projectiles. The two were quite popular on campus, especially among the women. This was despite (or perhaps because of) their staunch insistence on waiting until marriage to engage in sexual intercourse. Both graduated summa cum laude.
Marine Corps Deployment
Following graduation in 1982, they each served for eight years in the corps. Their ability to work together as a team was exceptional and caught the attention of General Bradley Buzzcut, who tried make sure that they served together for most of their commissions. Though their duties are largely classified, it is known that they did spend some time as liaisons to the contras in Nicaragua, and participated in war games on Lake Titicaca. Beavis, under the codename Cornholio, also participated in covert dealings in the Middle East during the Iran-Contra affair, posing as a Latin American convert to Islam.
Detective Work
Following their time in the Marines, Beavis and Butt-Head both became detectives for the San Antonio Police Department, along with an anthropomorphised German Shepherd named Skittles. It was during this time that they encountered many troubled youth and decided to pursue academic careers in the social sciences, in the hopes of providing solutions to the social decay that they perceived. Skittles died in a hail of gunfire while doing something stupid in the line of duty.
Academic Career
Beavis and Butt-Head both left the police force to enroll in PhD programs in 1996. Beavis studied sociology of mass media and popular culture at Princeton, while Butt-Head studied adolescent social psychology at Stanford. Following their dissertations in 1999 they were again reunited as faculty members of Harvard.
The Research Project
Beavis and Butt-Head became convinced that the primary corrupting influences of youth were television and rock music, especially when combined. So they spent countless hours monitoring TV programs and scrutinizing music videos. Monitoring and recording each fart joke, each masturbation reference and each shamefully lewd display of near nudity, they nearly wore out their neck muscles shaking their heads in disgust. The time spent watching the mindless drivel was enough to nearly cause brain damage; several times during the project they needed to perform difficult mental exercises to restore their memory abilities and cognitive functions. Beavis was quoted as saying "If I had grown up watching that garbage I might have easily become an illiterate burden to society." Added Butt-Head, "Being exposed to so much tasteless humor, it is no wonder that so many young people today never outgrow their teenage fascination with illicit sex and excretory functions."
With the irrefutable evidence that Beavis and Butt-Head provided of popular entertainment destroying the minds of youth, pro-censorship forces gained a momentum not seen before in recent American history. A right-left coalition, including Pat Robertson, Joe Lieberman, Bill Bennett, C. Delores Tucker, Jack Thompson, Catherine MacKinnon, Donald Wildmon, Robert Jensen, Fred Phelps, Daniel Brandt and Anonymous Slashy formed to finally overturn that pesky First Amendment, once and for all. Tipper Gore came out of semi-obscurity, once again upstaging her husband in the national spotlight, and reclaimed the glory as icon of the pro-censorhip movement that she had enjoyed in the 80s and early 90s.
|Despite being the driving force behind the movement to ban Rock and Roll, Beavis and Butt-Head still thought they could appeal to young people by acting like rockers.
During Beavis and Butt-Head's absence from television, a new scourge hit the media. As it turned out, the USA's new censorship laws, strict as they were, exempted non-fiction. Since literal, commonsense definitions of fiction and non-fiction would result in most news being labeled fiction, news organizations lobbied to make the definition as loose as possible. This opened the door for a new type of garbage entertainment, perhaps the most vile thing the entertainment media have ever produced - so called "Reality TV". Seeing this turn of events, the moral guardians demanded that Beavis and Butt-Head return to TV in the desperate hope that they could show the people just how horrible "Reality TV" really is. In 2011, Beavis and Butt-Head agreed to take part in this last ditch effort to save civilization.

Secrets and Easter Eggs in GTA IV

The following is a list of secrets, easter eggs, and hidden trivia references in Grand Theft Auto IV. For a list of Myths, see GTA Myths Wiki.
Easter eggs
- In Three Leaf Clover with Packie, if you position the camera properly Gerald McReary you can look inside his head - inside there is a box with a picture of a skull on it.
- In the missions done for Gerald McReary while he is in prison, a chart can be seen behind Gerald during the cutscenes for the mission. There are several names written on it, all of which are puns, including "Isaac Hunt" (I's a cunt), "Seymour Fani" (see more fanny), "Richard Head" (dick head), and "Phil Mcreavis" (fill my crevice).
- Within the Statue of Happiness is a giant beating heart, supposedly the "Heart of Liberty City." In GTA IV, access into the area is only achievable via an entrance marked by a "No Hidden Content This Way" sign at the upper level of the the statue's pedestal, which can only be reached by helicopter. Once inside the pedestal, the player must scale a ladder up to the midsection of the statue, where the heart is located. It can be shot at, but nothing happens. In Ballad of Gay Tony if you drink too much you will re-spawn at random locations, one of which may be the Heart of Liberty City.
- You can access the roof of Playboy X's penthouse suite by jumping on a power box to the right of the patio door. However the player must jump from a certain point of the box to grab onto the roof, jumping too close to the edge oddly will not allow the player to make it onto the roof. It is possible for footprints to appear on top of the box, indicating exactly where Niko's feet must be to make the jump. It has also been observed that these footprints will turn to blood spatters after shooting someone, and will only reappear when you are standing on the box and are being shot at, thus drawing your own blood.
- The lake in Middle Park resembles the shape of an alien. This can easily be noticed on the map or from the air in a helicopter.
- In the Broker Safehouse there is a picture of Roman and an unnamed woman. Notice that he looks almost completely different.
- At the Firefly Projects, there is a park with a swing set. If you drive backwards (or forwards with some vehicles such as a Voodoo) onto it, the swing set will catapult the vehicle high in the air. This is likely a bug in the game's physics simulation. See Swing Glitch article for more details.
- While driving the Mr. Tasty, you can trigger songs to play by clicking the horn. One of these songs is the theme song of GTA IV. While this song is playing, call ZiT and they will text you back with "ZiT! Spotted GTA IV Theme". This is a cheat that gives the player health, armor and ammo, but also disables some achievements.
- At all TW@ internet cafes, behind the cashier's desk, and also inside various vehicle dealerships, the screen of the Kakagawa Power Ultra 3000 Pro photocopier reads: ERROR Unleash ninja guru lol. This can only be seen through the scope of a Sniper Rifle.
- If you take a helicopter ride from Brucie Kibbutz, or you go for a helitour, there's an unsettling warning message about the helicopter inside the cockpit that you can see if you look in first person mode that says "This helicopter might crash but we really don't care if it does, refer to flight manual for help."
- In The Lost and the Damned, the dash of the Rhapsody has a sticker of Wayne and Garth from the movie Wayne's World, which famously features the song Bohemian Rhapsody.
- While playing multiplayer, some of the TVs in safehouses and the TV in the MeTV building, show the game's pause menu without the map.
- If the player scopes the night sky with a sniper rifle on a clear night, they will find some galaxies, stars and a flying thumb, in the thumbs up position.
- Behind an old, rundown mansion in Westdyke, Alderney at the end of the dirt roads, there is the hidden, extremely rare Sultan RS parked in some bushes. This is practically the only way to find the car ingame. The only other way to obtain it is if the game has it stored in the temporary memory (perhaps because one appeared in one of Brucie's Races), and automatically spawns it parked or driving around the streets.
- On the west side of Happiness Island, there is a random spawn that can be a car. This is unusual as there is no way a vehicle can be brought on to the island unless unloaded by a ship.
- Normally hostile pedestrians flee. Go into any strip club and either shoot it up or spend some time with a stripper. Then go to areas where there are gang members that will become hostile if they are bumped. Punch them and they will run away. Drivers that normally would get out and try to hurt you if you punch or hit their car will also flee. This only has a temporary effect.
- There are rumours of a "mythical creature" called "Ratman". Supposedly, he is found wandering around the subways. Some report of his sightings being simply a homeless man, while others report him being a half-human, half-rat creature, hence the name. This has not been confirmed in any way, but the game can spawn a homeless pedestrian sleeping in the Easton service entrance of the tunnels, and various hobos can be seen wandering around the subway arena between Easton Station and East Park/Manganese East.
References to previous games
- On the staircases in most apartment blocks in the game, you may spot some graffiti referring to past protagonists set in GTA III canon (Claude, Tommy, Carl (CJ), Toni, and Vic), that suggests they have passed away, though it is likely metaphorical as GTA III canon is over so they won't be seen again. The only onscreen death of a protagonist so far is Victor Vance. The graffiti is intended to serve as "a little joke for fans of the series", as a different design approach to GTA IV meant the games' timeline could only inherit various fictional brand names and certain radio personalities; it is, however, no indication as to whether or not GTA III canon has been retired.[1]
- There are signs scattered throughout Liberty City that say "Hot Coffee Shop", clearly a reference to the Hot Coffee sexual content and controversy from GTA San Andreas
- There is a Sprunk manufacturing plant in Alderney and a vending machine at Romans taxi depot. Sprunk was featured in GTA Vice City, GTA: San Andreas, and Manhunt. It has returned to GTA IV with a brand new look. Also notice that "Sprunk" is a mix of the words "Sprite" and "Spunk". The sign outside the factory is very similar to a sign for Pepsi-Cola that appears in the film "The Great Gatsby."
- One of the TV shows is a program called The Venturas Poker Challenge. It features a casino in Las Venturas from GTA San Andreas. When shown, the commercial doesn't have GTA IV graphics and art, it features GTA San Andreas graphics, the most obvious being the building designs and taxi.
- Similarly, footage of the Vinewood sign from GTA San Andreas is used for another TV ad; it is recognizably San Andreas animation due to the transmission tower visible right behind it, which was also in the earlier game.
- In Star Junction there is a sign for Love Fist. Love Fist was featured in GTA Vice City, and was also on a sign in GTA San Andreas and GTA Liberty City Stories.
- There is a laundromat in Broker called Mr. Wong's Laundromat; this is presumably a nod to that particular location. You also park infront of it in the TLAD mission Roman's Holiday.
- When Playboy X is killed, it is possible to go to his apartment and open the wardrobe to get a change of clothes that look like the clothing of Claude, the protagonist of GTA III.
- On the front of the Liberty Tree is Donald Love, who disappeared in GTA III.
- The Securicars are owned by the Gruppe Sechs security firm (also seen in IGTA III and Vice City), although in GTA IV the name is rendered as "Gruppe 6". "Sechs" is the German word for Six and "Gruppe" means group.
- In the bars are postcards featuring Vice City. Vice City is also advertised in airfare billboards near the airport.
- The "Pager" ringtone on Niko's cell phone is the pager sound from GTA III.
- Niko can receive an email from Chiliad8888, which calls the recipient "Pilgrim", makes many spiritually- and philosophically-charged (and anti-government) comments, ends with "Feel the Truth, Live the Freedom", and links to whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com. On this website there is a discussion topic titled, "Jump to a new level of Spirituality" posted by "Trooth". This discussion thread includes more philosophical thoughts, mentions Peyote, and provides a map of the Unique Stunt Jumps in Liberty City. "Chiliad" was also the name of a location in San Andreas (the highest mountain, in the southwestern wilderness). These clues suggest that the author of the email and discussion topic is The Truth, a character from GTA San Andreas.
- On Happiness Island, in front of the entrance to the statue, it is possible to find a street-artist's easel/display stand with several pictures. These pictures are all concept works of many previous GTA characters. The easel can also be seen in south-central Algonquin, very close to where Hossan's random encounter takes place and in front of the The Libertonian.
- A while after the mission Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend, the news reports that a homeless man, Jerry Kapowitz, found the diamonds used in the exchange and planned to use the money to open a gun store in Vice City.
- If you look closely at the chart behind Gerry on the prison, you can see the penis-shape drawing the students in GTA III had drawn.
- A building near the RON Gas Station in Downtown Broker has graffiti of GTA III Era characters.
- A billboard outside the Algonquin safehouse shows a man who is said to be CJ, drinking wine.
- During a multiplayer race in GTA IV if the player equips a certain Female face (possibly 2) then hits a car in traffic or another player's car while pressing the talk button ( PS3 or Xbox), the character will sometimes exclaim,"This isn't San Andreas you hippie, DRIVE!"
- Vipluxuryringtones.com offers MP3 ringtones of songs from Lips 106 and Head Radio in GTA Liberty City Stories.
- CDs from pre-GTA IV musicians are found in different places in GTA IV: Madd Dogg - Still Madd and OG Loc - Str8 from tha Street, both rappers in GTA San Andreas. Rudy LaFontaine - Funk in Time and Sunshine Shine - Mine Until Monday can both be heard on Lips 106 on GTA Liberty City Stories, and Purser - Feel the Pain can be heard on Head Radio on LCS.
- One of the in-game radio advertisements is for an online service called Babiesovernight.com. The tagline at the end and the background music are evocative of the commercial in GTA III for Petsovernight.com.
References to other games
- In the amusement park in Broker there are blue/purple Hippo Statues, just like the ones from Manhunt.
- Numerous references are made to Carcer City, the setting of Manhunt.
- The achievement/trophy for completing all the most wanted side missions is called Manhunt.
- On the website Yourmexicandoctor.com, two drugs first seen in Manhunt 2 (Hingmyralgan and H4PP1) are shown to be for sale.
- On the TV channel Weazel, there is an animated TV show called Republican Space Rangers, which spoofs the Halo series, as it features space marines wearing a green armor that resembles the MJOLNIR armor as seen in Halo. In one scene, the Rangers fly their spaceship through a ring that resembles a HALO ring.
- Certain random female NPCs will, upon being pushed, exclaim "Well excuse me dorkwad!", a possible reference to the Legend of Zelda cartoon.
- In the Lure Dealer room there is Gordon Freeman's crowbar from the Half-Life series.
- A pedestrian bearing an uncanny resemblance to Jimmy Hopkins, the protagonist of Bully, can be seen roaming the streets of Liberty City. He is even wearing a Bullworth Academy vest. He is, however, much more aged but does have a similar buzz cut hair style.
- On the wall in the arcade place in Chinatown, there are several sprites on the wall resembling those of old games. One of the sprites is a blond man, with a long mustache and plumber-like black clothes. The sprite resembles Super Mario from the Super Mario Brothers series.

Adult humor

- Looking at the golf courses carefully from a height reveals that they are penis-shaped.
- A brand of beer in the game is called "Dusche Gold". "Dusche" is German for "shower", so it translates into "shower gold", a reference to "golden shower", the act of urinating on someone.

- Another thing in Cluckin' Bell is the names above the restrooms. The male restroom says "Cocks" above it and the female restroom says "Chicks" above it.
- The series of internet cafes known as Tw@, is a clear reference to the female vagina. When the "@" is pronounced as "at".
- One of the restaurants is called "Viendemorte", which sounds exactly like "viande morte". It means "dead meat" in French.

ha ha, yay for poop reports! Well, Peaches started out ok, and I tried, I really tried to keep her in that crate but after two nights of absolutely no sleep, and I mean no sleep, I'm not exaggerating, I pulled her out and she slept next to me in my bed. Matt slept on the couch because he really needed to sleep good one night and she slept next to my head.
I got a lot more sleep, maybe 4 hours total. I was most concerned about her falling (I put pillows around the ground) so I slept super lightly. I don't know if she needed to go potty but she licked me at around 230 so I took her out. I'm so happy, I can stand in the doorway and tell her, "go potty, Peaches!" and she'll run out there, pee and then I say come! Peaches! and she comes back inside. I give her a treat for that, ha ha. I will treat her if it means I don't have to freeze my britches off.
So then she came straight back into bed with me.
Then at 5 am she heard Matt getting up so we went out and she potty'd and pooped. She always poops at 5 am which isn't a good thing later on in life, ha ha.
But this morning I finally got the energy to go to the pool. I crated her and she was asleep when I left but man when I got home she saw me (she wasn't howling when I came home so that is good) she wouldn't leave my side! To the point that I showered and she scratched at the door so I opened the shower and she climbed in! WTH? I didn't think that would happen. So she got a bit wet but not soaking and I blow dried her fur while I did my hair. Now she is laying next to me on the bed.
She LOVES our bed. Like big time.
Here is the photo of the day!

Oh goodness I LOVE this picture. Definitely GRF Caption Competition material! I can just see her saying "Oh, you thought this was YOUR bed?!"

MillionsofPeaches (12-12-2012)
It's Gotcha Day Eve in our house!!!! How on Earth am I expected to be productive today?! Last night we finally got Little No Name's crate set up in his puppy safe zone. I also set up a soft sided travel crate, which we'll use on long car trips and in our bedroom at night. We were both so excited that we could barely sleep last night, just imagine how tonight will be.
I've given up the name battle and have decided to let Adam choose his name. For weeks I've been brainstorming hundreds of names and as much as I wanted something super original, the little guy just looks like a Charlie. Which of course is what Adam wanted to name him all along.
Hopefully I'll get a chance to check in tomorrow and post some pictures! We'll be leaving the house around 7AM ET and probably won't be back until 2 or so.
How are all the girls doing today in their new homes?!
Yay for Almost-Gotcha-Day! Try to get sme sleep tonight-you'll be thankful tomorrow!
How far do you have to drive to pick up "Charlie?"
We are doing great over here. I tried uploading some photos yesterday but for some reason it kept rejecting them, I think they may have been too large. I have some really cute ones-
Thelma Lou has pretty much settled in to her nighttime routine. She poops right before bed (11 or so) and then gets up around 3 to pee and again between 5-6. Then she goes back to sleep until 7 or so, pees again, has breakfast, then poops. I've got it down.
Last night my 18yo slept downstairs with her so I could sleep through the night. It was nice.
She LOVES being outside. LOVES it. And it's been raining, which makes it even greater! She rolls in all the wet grass, jumps in wet leaves, leaps and bounds like she's in a Pixar short film, and I swear sometimes she squeals with delight.
She likes carrying things around in her mouth-pretty much anything and everything. I think it's hard teaching her what she can and can't pick up, so we've just got to be better about not leaving things in her reach. This morning she brought me a toy catalog (Christmas shopping?).
She has no interest in fetch. She just looks at what we throw like, "Well, what on earth did you do that for?"
She has had some very nice sits for us, and it's just the cutest thing. Her tiny little self sitting and looking expectantly for her treat.
She can hold her potty for quite a long time. She doesn't go out more an once an hour when we're home, and last night we were at church and were gone over 3 hours with her in her crate and she did great. Didn't seem agitated at all when we got back and hadn't pottied. In fact, we haven't even used one of her training pads yet.
Today is her vet appointment. I have noticed she has developed a rash on her tummy where there is no fur. I am wondering if she might be allergic to the grass outside?
Here is a picture of her snuggling last night. It's not the greatest pic, but at least it'll load.

Aww, she is so cute! We're not going to be using puppy pads either. Instead, my sister will be coming over to let him out and exercise him while we're at work. I don't want him to get used to doing his business inside, and we're really lucky to have a sitter lined up!
We'll have to drive 2.5-3 hours one way to pick him up. Not TOO bad I gues seeing how far others on this forum have traveled.
awww Amanda that was the worst day for us, in terms of waiting. I know it is going to be horrible for you guys! I sincerely can't wait till you get her! I am so excited all of us October mammas are almost finished getting their babies!
That is great about the schedule of TL. I haven't really thought of the schedule yet with Peaches. I know she poops three times, once in the morning, once in the midday and once after dinner. Its weird, I'm a very OCD person about so many things but I've never been a schedule person with my babies and now with my dogs. I've always wondered that about myself. I guess God is helping them out because I'm sure one more nagging mommy trait from me and my kids would lose it :P
Peaches is now getting much more adjusted to the crate. I left her yesterday and this morning while I exercised. Also I started giving her her meals in there and now that she is devouring her food she is all excited to go into the crate to get her food Man, I love my breeder, she has carried me through with the crate.
Peaches is so smart and feisty and also loving and affectionate. She has learned so many things its amazing. I have taught her table, so she will jump up on a small platform now. She is so cute, she backs up to get speed to get on top. I'm really hoping to get her into agility. She also is weaving through plants, I think she may have a natural talent for it, Lord knows her mama and family does. I have to learn all of this as far as training but I'm really excited about it. I can't wait till after the holidays so we can take her to puppy kindergarten! Oh and I'm also leash training her in the house. She wants to bite but with some treats she doesn't care at all about the leash once we get going. She is learning to heel and walk with me.
and we haven't used a pee pad either. She always just goes outside. I wouldn't mess with them, Amanda, unless it is just a necessity. I think these are such brilliant dogs that they learn amazingly fast and that is just a detour if you ask me. Unless, of course, the dog isn't getting it.
So we move on and it is the most exciting experience. Every single thing that Peaches does goes down in my "awe" book in my mind and I brag about it like she is a new baby! LOL

Country star Jason Aldean will live out his baseball dreams this year after striking a deal to tour sports stadiums across North America.
The "My Kinda Party" hitmaker made history last year when he became the first country artist to play a concert at Boston, Massachusetts' historic Fenway Park baseball field, a show which sold out in just seven minutes.
Now Aldean, who had considered pursuing his love of sports as a child, is preparing to hit the stage at numerous baseball arenas around the continent with Florida Georgia Line and Tyler Farr as his support acts, as part of his Burn It Down tour.
Making the announcement on U.S. breakfast show Good Morning America on Thursday, he said, "It's called the 2014 Burn It Down tour, partnered with Major League Baseball. We're gonna go play a bunch of stadiums this year… I think it's gonna be total, about 50 shows… It's gonna be a fun year."
A full list of venues and dates is expected to be released in the coming weeks.

Practical Action is a development charity with a difference. We know the simplest ideas can have the most profound, life-changing effect on poor people across the world. This is why, for over 40 years, we have been working closely with some of the world's poorest people using simple technology to fight poverty and transform their lives for the better.
Practical Action has a unique approach to development – we don't start with technology, but with people. The tools may be simple or sophisticated – but to provide long-term, appropriate and practical answers, they must be firmly in the hands of local people: people who shape technology and control it for themselves.
Solar Cookers International (SCI) is working in collaboration with Practical Action in the Kadibo region of Kenya considered to have a total service area population of 49,000. The project description as concerns SCI in agreement with US-EPA is to increase market access to clean cooking technologies (solar cookers, Upesi Stove, fireless cookers) for health and wealth in rural, Kadibo Division of Nyanza province, Kenya. For its part, Practical Action is working to promote technologies such as the Upesi Jiko stove, the Kenya Ceramic Jiko, a Rocket Stove and a metal hood to vent smoke out of homes.

Gadsden County, FL -- April 10, 2012 --
The name Striplin carries a lot of weight around the Big Bend. Now it'll have a presence in Gadsden County. Joey Striplin has been named the offensive coordinator at East Gadsden High School. Striplin joins 2nd year Head Coach Corey Fuller at East Gadsden after spending 3 seasons as the head coach of the Bobcats at Robert F. Munroe High School.
Not too long ago, Joey Striplin was a heralded starting quarterback for Lincoln High school. When his playing days were over, his coaching passion took over. Striplin's journey then took him to Aucilla Christian School where his offensive brain groomed a 7th grade quarterback (Matt Dobson) into a starting quarterback and later a 2-time State Champ at North Florida Christian.
Striplin spent 3 seasons as Warriors head coach before accepting the same position with the Munroe Bobcats. He met with players and parents Monday and Tuesday to inform them of his resignation.
East Gadsden reached the State Semifinals last season before falling at Jacksonville-Bolles. That was the deepest playoff run for Jaguar football in school history.

What is the most amazing prayer story you have ever heard? Whatever it is I can top it. Below is the story of a 110-year prayer vigil that changed the world, and the way churches think about missions.
It is unbelievable to me how few people know the story, and it is time Christians tell it again, not so much in word, but in deed. That is on our knees with head bowed, praying for God to send a great revival to our country.

JE084: Turning Over A New Bayleef
this wiki
After the events of the last episode, Ash now has a "big" problem: His new Bayleef is too big for Ash to handle, on top of that, it has the same problem as a Young Hercules (She doesn't know her own strength). While trying to serve food, Ash then notices Bayleef coming closer to him and yells at her to "Get away from me and stay away from me!" Heartbroken, Bayleef runs away. As if that weren't enough, it probably thought "If Ash doesn't care about me, fine! I don't care if I never see him again." After Ash realizes Bayleef hasn't come back for lunch Ash gets worried. A short while later Ash and co. find her in the care of an elderly lady, but the reunion was not a happy one since Bayleef is mad at Ash and doesn't want anything to do with him. Can Ash find a way to make peace with Bayleef?
- This episode is celebrated as another milestone, the 200th episode.
- "No Tackling! Now get away from me and stay away from me!"

what's with today, today? 10 points if you know what that quote is from! what is with today? the sky is completely gray and it's monday. blah, right? luckily there are about 3 things keeping my spirits up. 1) the coconut pound cake I made for a potluck yesterday 2) emily's earthquake blackout party tonight and 3) this yummy very local dish I put together for meatless monday.
Spring produce is a favorite of mine. There was lots of green showing at the market last weekend, and I picked up this rainbow chard, some fava bean leaves (made pesto!, just sub basil for fava leaves for a nuttier, slightly earthier sauce), a couple of artichokes, and some avocados, as well as strawberries (they are so, so good right now), flowers, and eggs.
The bread I used for this dish came from an uber cool local company, sour flour. Thanks, Danny! I was turned onto it from an event I attended last week, and am hooked. It was amazingly delicious, and I am just dying to learn a little more about bread baking from Danny, himself. Hoping to sign up for a class sometime soon!!
With that amazing sour dough bread turned to toast, the fresh chard simply sauteed and liberally seasoned, and a wonderfully poached farm fresh egg, I really couldn't ask for a more healthy, quick, and seasonal meal. Hope you enjoy!
Swiss Chard & a Poached Egg on Toast
serves 2 to 4
2 Tbsp olive oil1 large bunch of swiss chard
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 large onion, diced
1/8 to 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/8 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
salt and pepper, to taste
4 large slices of country bread, grilled or toasted
4 poached eggs (see link)
To clean swiss chard, cut down both sides of stem to remove it. Plunge leaves in a large bowl of water and mix with hands. Let sit for a few minutes, letting dirt fall to bottom. Remove chard, drain water and repeat a few times. Dry chard either with a salad spinner or on towels. Once dry, cut chard into large (1/2-inch wide) ribbons.
In a large saute pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5-8 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and stir for 30 seconds. Add chard and nutmeg and cook until chard is soft, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside, or leave on low heat until ready to serve.
To serve, arrange 1/4 of chard mixture onto each piece of bread. Top with a poached egg and season with a little salt and pepper if desired.

Realty Mogul, a graduate of the Los Angeles Founder Institute, has been snagging the attention of media and real estate investors since their graduation in the Spring of 2012. Now on the verge of completing the Microsoft Biz Spark Azure program in Seattle, Founder and CEO Jilliene Helman has not only been busy entertaining journalists, but she's winning major pitch competitions too.
Just this past weekend, the West Coast based startup (which has offices in both Seattle and Los Angeles), took first place at the HATCH pitch competition at the South by Southwest conference in Austin. A relatively new event sponsored by the Houston Technology Center, HATCH drew in hundreds of applicants from around the world, ultimately selecting 12 finalists to pitch on stage. Realty Mogul, which describes themselves as "crowdfunding for real estate" earned their number one spot with an enthusiastic and memorable pitch which judges later described as 'histrionic'.
Each judge virtually had $1 million to invest across the 12 finalist. In the end, the startup with the most capital 'raised' was deemed the winner. Molecule Software, a Houston based company that simplifies trading of stocks for small energy companies landed second, with Austin startup, Taskbox trailing in third. Click here to read Susan Lahey's coverage of the winners on Silicon Hills.
Following their win was a Tech Cocktail article from Stephanie Nguyen, which you can read by clicking here.

Hillsboro, MO (KSDK) - A guilty plea in Jefferson County from a one time janitor in the Festus School District has resulted in a ten year prison term.
Michael Burgess, 48 of Festus, pleaded guilty last month to separate counts of statutory rape and sodomy in the May 2001 crimes which victimized the ten year old girl.
Along with the ten years behind bars, Burgess was also ordered to register as a lifetime sex offender and will be required lifetime supervision once he is released.
Police investigators say Burgess had known the victim and her family for several years, and the incidents did not occur on any school property.
Burgess worked as a custodian for the Festus School District for more than six years and school officials say a background check on Burgess showed no past problems when he was hired.

A former Colorado Springs prosecutor who has tried four death penalty cases and several murder cases will lead the prosecution against the suspect in the Colorado theater shooting case.
The hiring of Dan Zook was announced Wednesday by 18th Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler.
James Holmes faces 166 felony charges in the July 20 shooting in Aurora that left 12 people dead and 70 people injured. Brauchler hasn't said whether he will seek the death penalty for Holmes.
Holmes is scheduled to enter a plea in March.
Zook served as a top state prosecutor in Colorado Springs for a total of 23 years between 1985 and 2011. During a stint in private practice, Zook defended a suspect accused of first-degree murder.
