Accommodation: Hotel Vieja Cuba (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
This morning's short walking tour of Quito is the perfect opportunity to meet your guide and get to know your fellow travellers. The heart of old Quito is a colonial masterpiece and the capital is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cities in South America. Leaving Quito behind we drive towards the North-Western slopes of the Andes where Bellavista Cloud Forest is located. Situated at the top of the Tandayapa Valley, Bellavista is a private reserve bursting with orchids, bromeliads, toucans, tanagers and hummingbirds. The area is a paradise for naturalists with a vast network of hiking trails, some of which lead to waterfalls. Accommodation: Bellavista Cloud Forest Reserve & Lodge, Septimo Paraiso (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
An early start this morning to appreciate the diversity of Bellavista and spot some of its many bird species. The reserve has previously won awards for its high bird count - there are 20 different species of Hummingbird to look for! Following this morning's excursion we drive north towards Ibarra, located just to the south of the beautiful hacienda that will be our home for the next few nights.
Accommodation: Hosteria Pantavi (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
After breakfast we travel towards the foothills of the extinct volcano Imbabura (2,900m) where the indigenous community of San Clemente is located. The community consists of a number of local families whose main livelihood comes from farming and agriculture. We have a guided tour by one of the families, who will introduce us to a number of native and medicinal plants, explain traditional embroidery techniques and show us the day to day activities that take place within the community. A typical lunch will be prepared using locally grown produce. This afternoon we drive back to our hacienda with an optional visit to the hot springs of Chachimbiro.
Drive to Cuicocha Crater Lake at approximately 3000m. This beautiful caldera (volcanic crater) is about 2 miles/3km wide and was formed over 3000 years ago by a massive volcanic explosion. We take a scenic walk part way along the lake (up to 3 hours duration) to take in the impressive scenery, before continuing our journey to Cotacachi, the perfect place to get a feel for small town life in Ecuador. The Cotacachi settlement resides below a volcano amidst verdant pastures and consists of cobblestone streets, a UNESCO developed market and some beautiful colonial buildings. A short drive brings us to San Pablo, where we stay overnight.
Accommodation: My Sachaji Wellness Hotel (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
A short journey brings us to Otavalo this morning, situated in a valley at 2250m the town is well known for its bustling Indian Market. There are hundreds of stalls and many locals wearing traditional colourful clothes - a fantastic introduction to Andean life and a good place to pick up some souvenirs. We have some time to soak up the atmosphere before continuing our journey and driving over the dramatic (and breathless at 4064m!) Papallacta Pass, to the east of Quito. Antisana Volcano stands proud and snowcapped at 5758m and we drive around its flanks before the descent into the Amazon Basin to our rainforest lodge. After a short briefing we take a night walk to discover our new surroundings - there are fantastic night time sounds to listen out for, a wonderful experience amidst the humidity of the rainforest.
Accommodation: Liana Lodge (or similar)Standard Hotel
Discover the vast Amazonian basin by canoe and on foot. The incredible biodiversity of the rainforest environment will be explained by our indigenous guide, who will explain the most interesting and medicinal plants. There is a good chance of seeing kingfisher, parrot, oropendula and other bird species. Squirrel and Capuchin monkeys are seen in this area, although other larger mammals are considerably more shy and harder to spot. The insect life is also fascinating, with beautiful butterflies flashing by and army ants and leaf-cutters on patrol. Visit the Amazoonico Animal Rescue Centre where we can see some of the forest's larger inhabitants such as Tapir, Capibara, Pecari and various species of monkey.
Begin the wonderfully scenic drive west along the 'Road of the Waterfalls' with spectacular views of the upper Amazon Basin and the Andes towering above. The climb back to the highlands is mesmerising as we watch the ecology change and the many waterfalls cascade from the high peaks into the lush valley of the Pastaza River. There are plenty of photo opportunities along the way, including a stop at the Pailon del Diablo (Devil's Cauldron) waterfall. We pass through Banos, a picturesque spa and pilgrim town adjacent to the 5000m high volcano of Tungurahua. There is some time to explore Banos before we drive to our hacienda in Patate. As the Tungurahua Volcano is currently in an active phase we follow Foreign Office Advice regarding its volcanic activities and if necessary we will partake in activities nearer to our hacienda.
Accommodation: Hacienda Leito (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
Drive to the region of Chimborazo for a short walk (around one hour) in Chimborazo National Park, located at approx. 4600m. Due to the equatorial bulge the summit of Chimborazo is the furthest place from the centre of the earth! In the national park there are good possibilities to observe vicuñas, a relative of the llama. This afternoon our journey continues towards Riobamba where we stay overnight.
Accommodation: Hacienda Abraspungo (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
Today involves a colourful train ride across the Andes through the steep and spectacular 'Nariz del Diablo' or 'Devil's Nose'. If the weather is clear, we can see volcanoes as we chug slowly down a steep series of switchbacks with impressive drops. Afterwards visit the incredible Inca Fortress at Ingapirca, Ecuador's principal ruin from the great Peruvian civilisation. The Inca Empire stretched along the Andes north through Ecuador into Colombia and south through Peru and deep into Chile. Ingapirca has fine examples of their famed brickwork as well as a solar observatory. We descend from the highlands to beautiful, colonial Cuenca where we stay for the next two nights. Accommodation: Hotel Santa Lucia, Hotel Victoria, Hotel Carvallo (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
Like Quito's old centre, Cuenca is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a charming place to explore. A guided tour this morning takes in the remarkably intact old town, where many artisans have taken up residence amidst the narrow colonial streets and famous landmarks. The afternoon is free to discover the town at your own leisure.
Accommodation: Hotel Santa Lucia, Hotel Victoria, Hotel Carvallo (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
A short drive this morning brings us to Cajas National Park, otherwise known as the 'Gateway to the Snowy Mountains' in local Quichua. This is a stunning area of lofty peaks, lagoons, lakes and rivers amidst pristine paramo vegetation. During a walk of around 2 hours it's possible to see Condor and Giant Hummingbird amongst 125 other bird species. We stay in a hotel close to Cajas National Park for our last night in the Andean Highlands before we descend towards the coast.
Accommodation: Hosteria Dos Chorreras (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
Today we visit Manglares Churute Ecological Reserve where we take a boat excursion through the incredible mangrove forest. This important eco-system has both Red and Black mangrove species and provides opportunities for seeing a number of aquatic birds and other wildlife along the many small river inlets. In the afternoon we visit a cacao plantation to learn about the production of one of Ecuador's biggest exports. After this we travel to Guayaquil, the main port town in Ecuador, for our final evening together. Accommodaton: Grand Hotel Guayaquil (or similar)Comfortable Hotel
The trip comes to an end today after breakfast and it's time to bid Ecuador and the rest of the group goodbye. Free transfers to Guayaquil airport are available to all clients today. Those on group flights will fly this evening and arrive in the UK the following day.

In Quito and the highlands it should be warm by day and generally dry. Maximum daytime temperatures are almost constant throughout the year at 20ºC, nights 8ºC. Some rain can be expected in February to May and October to November but storms, though heavy, are generally short. Quito and in general the highlands, are considered to have quite a pleasant climate, although the evenings can be chilly. In the jungle regions it will be hot with high humidity. There is always a possibility of rain at any time, but not to the extent of spoiling your enjoyment. The driest time in the jungle (in terms of rainfall levels, not number of rainy days) is October to January. On the coast at Guayaquil, the climate is tropical. Between December and April, it is sunny, hot and humid, with daytime temperatures often reaching the mid 30s. As the Humboldt Current moves north, the city tends to be cloudier and cooler between May and November, but temperatures rarely dip below 29ºC.
This trip has been graded 2: Leisurely/Moderate
It will appeal to those interested in the astonishing variety of mainland Ecuador - Spanish and Inca history, Paramo highland, mangrove systems, rainforest, cloud forest and volcanoes. It is a busy trip, taking in a huge amount of scenery, flora, fauna and history in two weeks. Many of the areas visited on the trip are at high altitude and some short walks (normally one to three hours) are planned. A reasonable level of fitness is required for this trip.
11 nights comfortable hotels, haciendas and lodge and 2 nights standard lodge, all en suite.
Accommodation on this holiday is a real highlight as we stay in a mix of country haciendas (Spanish colonial estate houses), hotels and lodges. The haciendas offer a real retreat with welcoming staff and beautiful surroundings, whether surrounded by gardens or nestled in the mountains. Staying in the jungle is likely to be a memorable experience, our thatched bungalows nestled in the forest and only reachable by boat. Optional single supplement available, see dates and prices.

William J. Knaus, EdD , is a licensed psychologist with more than forty years of clinical experience in working with people suffering from anxiety and depression. He has appeared on numerous regional and national television shows including Today , and more than one hundred radio shows. His ideas have appeared in national magazines such as U.S. News and World Report and Good Housekeeping , and major newspapers such as the Washington Post and the Chicago Tribune . He is one of the original directors of training in rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT). Knaus is author of twenty books, including The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Anxiety, The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Depression , and The Procrastination Workbook .
Albert Ellis was a clinical psychologist and a marriage counselor. He was born on September 27, 1913 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Ellis originated the rational-emotive therapy movement, which ignores Freudian theories and advocates the belief that emotions come from conscious thought "as well as internalized ideas of which the individual may be unaware." At first, Ellis' books on marital romance and sexuality were criticized by some as being radical and sensational; however, few realized that Ellis was merely laying the groundwork for modern sex education. Ellis was educated at the City College of New York Downtown and at Columbia University, where he received a Ph.D. in psychology in 1943. He taught for a number of years at Rutgers University, New Jersey, and the Union Graduate School. He was executive director of the Institute for Rational Living, Inc., in New York City. Ellis was the author of Sex and the Liberated Man, Sex Without Guilt, and Sex Without Guilt in the Twenty-First Century. Despite his health issues, Ellis never stopped working with the assistance of his wife, Australian psychologist Debbie Joffe Ellis. In April 2006, Ellis was hospitalized with pneumonia, and had to stay in either the hospital or the rehabilitation facility. He eventually returned to his home --- the top floor of the Albert Ellis Institute. He died there on July 24, 2007 in his wife's arms. Ellis had authored and co-authored more than 80 books and 1200 articles during his lifetime. He was 93 when he died.

Naruto Uzamaki
Author's note:
I'm new at this and have many ideas for Naruto. I'm a Naruto x ino fan. I don't know if people are going to like this but I am willing to take that challenge. I am going to have four different stories of Naruto. There is going to be when he is young then when he is a teen (I have A LOT of ideas also longest story.)When he is a jounin then when he is hokage the bloodiest story. The one who inspired me is one of the Naruto x Ino authors on , Skymaiden. I wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for her. Now is the first chapter of young Naruto enjoy.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto
Chapter1: his first friend
Summary: Naruto is a hated kid. When walks around town, that changes
Naruto Uzamaki: story 1 chapter 1
His name is Naruto Uzamaki. 12. Blonde hair. Orphan. The same boring and sad routine every day. Wake up, eat ramen at his favorite place, walk around, get beat up, go home, and sleep.
Then one day while he was walking around town, he saw a platinum blonde girl close by, she was walking then suddenly she tripped over a rock luckily Naruto caught her in time.
"Thanks" she said
"No problem um" Naruto said
"The names Ino, Ino Yamanaka" Ino said
"Naruto Uzamaki" Naruto said
"I was going to the field, wanna join me?" Ino asked
"Well I have nothing else to do, so sure" Naruto said
"Then let's go" Ino said
They went to the field and talked a little
"So you go to Konaha elementary?" Ino asked
"Yeah I like everything except one girl" Naruto said
"Who" Ino said
"This girl named Sakura Haruno" Naruto said
Ino looked at Naruto with happy look. "You hate Forehead too!?" Ino said
"Forehead?" Naruto said
"That's what I call sakura" Ino said
"Why?" Naruto asks still playing the question game
"Because she has a big forehead duh Naruto keep up, you're bad at this game." Ino joked while laughing.
"You're missing one rule of this game though." Said Naruto with a grin on his face.
Ino looked confused. "What other rule am I missing?" Ino asked
"What! You don't know what rule you're missing? Its most important rule. I don't know maybe you're bad at this game."Naruto said
Now Naruto was switching the cards on her. "Come on Naruto don't leave me hanging." Ino said
"You have to be ticklish" Naruto said as he ran to Ino and attacked her with tickles.
"Hahahaha Naruto hahaahahaha stop it" Ino said
When he stops Ino grabbed Naruto by the collar and both of them went tumbling down a hill and stop when they reached the bottom.
"Dang Naruto you are so much fun I bet your friends are lucky to have you" Ino said.
"I don't have any friends, all the kids hate me" Naruto said
"Oh well at least you have your parents, right" Ino said
"I'm an orphan" Naruto said
Ino was sorry for him "How come?" Ino asked
"To make a long story short twelve years ago a monster called the Kyuubi was forced to attack Konaha by a man named Madara Uchica. He wanted make world domination. The jinjuriki of the Kyuubi was my mother and wife of the fourth hokage, Kushina Uzamaki. Madara Uchica took away Kyuubi from her. The fourth hokage my father had to seal the Kyuubi in a human vassal me. In all of that both of my parents died. The reason people hate me is because they think I am the Kyuubi and I'm going to kill them. Well there you have it.
Ino was so sorry. "Then will." Ino said
Naruto looked confused "you'll what?"Naruto asked
"I will be your first friend" Ino said and smiled
"Thanks Ino you're the best!" Naruto said
"Omg look at the time I have to get its getting pretty dark" Ino said
"Ok bye Ino" Naruto said
"Bye Naruto" said Ino
"My first friend" Naruto Thought to himself
Hope you enjoyed it I know it's nothing that good this chapter but I liked it you still going to be hearing more from me. Late (means later)
P.S chapter 2 is in progress

The Chanute Daily Tribune, Tuesday, May 21, 1918
Died: May 20, 1918
Wounded and Captured Twice,
Esteemed by Foe Because of
His Bravery.
Altho he had been ill for a month Capt. L. D. Dobbs of the national military home in Leavenworth, Kas., came here Saturday night to attend the annual state encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic.
"I have never missed one of the state encampments since the first one was held," he told his comrades, "and I want to do to the thirty-seventh because the sands of my life are running low, and it will probably be the last one I have a chance to attend.
He reported for duty, but was "detailed for service on the other side," before the session began, dying at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon at his room in the Oriental Hotel. Death was caused by heart failure, with old age as a contributing cause.
Expected to Get Well
Captain Dobbs was 82 years old. He was taken ill night before last and seemed to be fatally stricken then.
"Don't worry about me, surgeon," he told the physician who attended him. "I'm going to get well so I can attend the encampment, for I expect it will be my last."
Sure enough he rallied, and was able yesterday afternoon to go to the physician's office. The trip exhausted him, tho, and the physician made him lie down and rest, after cautioning him to conserve his strength. He rested until he thought he was all right, then returned to his hotel. There he was seized by another attack, and expired at 5 o'clock. Members of the Winfield delegation of the Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic heard his labored breathing and summoned help. He died half an hour afterward.
An Ex-Prisoner of War
Captain Dobbs was for two years senior vice-commander of the National Association of Union Ex-Prisoners of War, and adjutant and quartermaster of the Kansas Association of Union Ex-Prisoners of War, and came here in advance of the encampment to look up ex-prisoners of war in this vicinity.
He was an ex-prisoner of war with an unusual record, displaying so much bravery in the presence of his captors that they held him as a prisoner of honor instead of ordering him executed, according to orders which had been given by the Confederate government.
Subject to Death Sentence
His comrade Captain W. A. Carnahan of the Thirty-Eighth Ohio, gives the following account of the incident as it was told him by an eyewitness---a major in the United States Volunteers:
"Captain Dobbs was a 1st lieutenant in command of the Nineteenth United States Colored Troops. They took part in the blowing up of Petersburg, and he was captured there. The rebel government had issued an order that all captured officers of colored troops should not be treated as prisoners of war, but were to be shot by a firing squad. Because of this such officers usually disguised their ranks when captured.
Refused to Dissemble
"When Captain Dobbs was wounded and saw that capture was inevitable, he made no attempt to disguise his rank. Instead, he retained all of its insignia, including his sword and belt, the same as if he were on duty.
"When he was taken before the brigadier general in charge of the prisoners, the general said to him:
"What is your name and rank?"
"My name is L. D. Dobbs, and I am commander of the Nineteenth Colored Troops,' the prisoner replied, calmly and without bravado, altho he knew that the order for him to be shot might be given the next minute.
"Bravest I Ever Saw."
"The brigadier general looked him over and then called his adjutant. Pointing to Captain Dobbs, the general said:
"There's the bravest Yankee boy I ever saw, and I've seen many of them. I am going to turn him over to you as a prisoner of war. I shall hold you personally responsible if so much as a hair of his head is touched, or he is injured in any way."
In Service Nearly Six Years
Captain Dobbs was taken prisoner twice, both times after having been wounded. He served from April 26, 1861, to March 2, 1867, seeing continuous service for five years, ten months and eight days.
He enlisted at Brookville, Pa., in Company K of the Eleventh Pennsylvania Reserve Volunteers, and was in all its engagements as color guard until June 26, 1862, when he was wounded and taken prisoner at Gaines' Mill, Va., and confined in Castle Thunder and Belle Isle.
A Recruiting Officer.
He was exchanged August 6, 1862, then took part in the battles of Groveon, Bristoe Station, Second Bull Run, South Mountain, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Williamsburg, Falling Water, Ashby's Gap, Mine Run, and New Hope Church.
On December 21, 1863, he was commissioned by President Lincoln as second lieutenant of the Nineteenth United States Colored Troops, and recruited more than 600 men in Maryland in the next three months.
A Barefoot Flight
In 1864 he participated in the battle of the Wilderness campaign, Spottsylvania, North Anna, Cold Harbor and in the storming and capture of three largest forts defending Petersburg.
He was on duty in the trenches at Petersburg until the mine explosion on June 30, 1864, when he was again wounded and taken prisoner, being confined at Danville, Va., Salisbury, N. C., and Columbia, S. C. He escaped from the latter jail by tunneling November 21, 1864, and after tramping forty-one nights thru the mountains of western North and South Carolina and Eastern Tennessee, much of the way barefoot in snow six inches deep he reached the Union lines at Knoxville, Tenn., January 1, 1865. There he found he had been promoted to first lieutenant while in prison.
Special Details
On February 1, 1865, he was detailed by the secretary of war as a member of the staff of Gen. Lew Wallace of Baltimore. In April of 1865 he rejoined his regiment in Richmond and was appointed acting adjutant. In June, 1865, he was present with his regiment to Brownsville, Tex., on July 5, was appointed Fort Brown at Brownsville, Tex., guarding the property of American citizens at Matamoras, Mexico, during the Caraval rebellion.
He was mustered out at Brownsville, January 15, 1867, and finally discharged at Baltimore, Md., March 2, 1867.
A Great Grand Army Man
"In the passing away of Captain Dobbs the Grand Army losses one of the best workers it ever had." Captain Carnahan declared. "There are few men in Kansas who could go thru the details of the ritual as Captain Dobbs could go. He was noted Grand Army man from start to finish."
Captain Dobbs was assistant patriotic instructor of the Kansas department five years, and a member of the National Association of Patriotic Inspectors.
Daughter in Nation's Service
The body was taken to F. S. Wilson's undertaking parlors where it is being held awaiting the arrival of word from his daughter, who is a stenographer for the government in Washington. He told Dr. J. H. Light, who attended him, that he had eight children. The daughter in Washington is the only one whose whereabouts were known by any of his comrades here.

Mumbai, India (PressExposure) August 21, 2009 -- Global Carbon Policy Analysis Policy Initiatives Driving the Growth of the Carbon Sequestration Market report ( [http://www.bharatbook.com/Market-Research-Reports/Global-Carbon-Policy-Analysis-Policy-Initiatives-Driving-the-Growth-of-the-Carbon-Sequestration-Market.html] ) provides an in-depth analysis on the policy initiatives by the European Union, US, Canada, Australia and other developed and developing economies. The report suggests investment decisions in carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects by providing trends and information on global carbon trading policies. It also provides an analysis on the current investments in CCS projects globally. In addition to this, the report discusses in detail the current CCS projects in progress and costs involved in carbon sequestration projects. Also covered are the investments by major oil and gas companies towards CCS projects.
Government Regulations are Driving the Development of Carbon Sequestration Projects Globally The major drivers for CCS projects are regulations to reduce carbon emissions from developed countries. Kyoto Protocol, Chicago Climate Change Policy, US DOEâs Carbon emissions monitoring and reporting, US EPAâs Climate Leaderâs Program and Global Climate Change Initiatives and USâ Clean Energy and Security Act have driven CCS projects in the US. The ECâs regulations and incentives in the establishment of CCS projects and EUâs Emission Trading Standards have strengthened carbon sequestration in Europe. The Canadian governmentsâ support to reduce criticism on the highly polluting oil extraction from oil sands has driven CCS projects in this geography. Australiaâs Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS) and the countryâs ambitious targets to achieve Green House Gas (GHG) emissions reduction by 2020 have resulted in funding of numerous carbon sequestration projects in the geography. Chinaâs coordination to work in conjunction with the EC especially the UK has driven several carbon emission reduction projects.
USâ Clean Energy and Security Act will accelerate the Investments in CCS Projects âUSâ Clean Energy and Security Act 2009â brings radical improvements to the existing environmental policy. The Act sets limitations to the GHG and Hydro Fluoro Carbon (HFC) emissions by various industries. The act provides incentives to automobile manufacturers to develop and foster energy-efficient and zero emission vehicles. USâ Department of Energy (DOE) will finance the projects undertaken by automobile manufacturers to produce vehicles with zero carbon emissions. The legislationâs Cap-and-Trade program defines GHGs and HFCs and sets limitations for emissions from various industries. The companies that do not adhere to the emissions targets will be required to pay carbon taxes based on the emissions. The legislation boosts the CCS programs by funding research and development undertaken by power generation companies. The Act promotes the establishment of the Carbon Storage Research Corporation which will annually evaluate the emissions by oil and gas and power generation companies. Upon the establishment of the research corporation yearly evaluations are compulsory and these will be included in federal budget.
The European Commissionâs Commitment towards Reducing GHGs has accelerated the Deployment of CCS Projects Globally In June 2009, the EC published the revised directive of EU Emission Trading System (ETS) proposing a detailed climate energy legislative package. The package sets stringent targets for carbon emissions reduction. EU has promoted CCS projects by incentivizing power plants that are planning to modernize with integrated CCS facilities. EU has fixed the cap on distribution of excess carbon emission allowances to achieve emissions reduction ahead of 2020. This indirectly promotes deployment of CCS facilities. EU member states can partner with emerging nations to develop net zero emission plants and these investments can be traded with the emissions reduction. The European Commission has funded the majority share in all CCS projects initiated by EU.

Thailands 'iron man' ready to combine sport and politics
THE story of Roman Abramovich panicking when he mistook Fulham's decrepit Craven Cottage for Stamford Bridge, the home of Chelsea, might not be the last linking the clubs. The suggestion by Thaksin Shinawatra, the Thai Prime Minister, that he is considering buying Fulham is being taken seriously in Thailand, where he is leader of the coalition Government and lives by his family motto: "It is better to die than live like a loser."
As the second-richest man in Thailand, Thaksin, 54, has the money, too, but he also never misses an opportunity for publicity. He watched Real Madrid play in Thailand in the summer, partly because David Beckham was playing, and he viewed it as a photo opportunity.
Thaksin was a guest of Mohamed Al…

November 4, 2011 by staff

Harry joined his family to make an appearance at the opening night of Disney On Ice: Worlds of Fantasy at the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham.
The use of an all-in-one soft dress striped hat, baby Harry took turns to have the pampering of his mother and father footballer Jamie O'Hara.
The couple also bought along her year-old son, Archie, and looked like a very happy family, as they posed for photographs together.
Lloyd – who gave birth to ten weeks early Harry – seemed to have receded as showing her slender figure in a pair of shiny leggings, wearing lace-up boots and a leather jacket.
The glamor model had straightened her hair dark and wore a colorful scarf leopard as she proudly to their children.
Her fiance, O'Hara, wearing casual slacks kept dark, white sneakers and a gray shirt, polo.
Eldest son of the couple looked lovely in a gray suit and white sneakers Adidas tracksuit and looked excited as she posed with Mickey and Minnie Mouse.
A smile from ear to ear, the couple shared a special moment, and I looked at the pictures I had taken on her mobile phone – which Lloyd later posted on her Twitter page.
Twitter yesterday about how much I was waiting for the event: "Is there anyone else going to see Disney on Ice tomorrow night I think I'm more excited than the kids! Haha X" she wrote.
The Celebrity Big Brother contestant former has had a difficult month due to some Harry born prematurely, but he seemed happy to finally be with her family at her side.

Funktion-One Is About To Redefine Sound At Music Festivals
Many serious electronic music fans will know the name Funktion-One. Their sound-systems are installed in some of the best nightclubs around the word, and are often featured at smaller festivals - but until now, there was no F-1 option for main stages at large events.
Their new Vero system is going to change that. It's a fly-able, array-able, large format rig that can be customized and expanded to provide pristine Funktion-One sound for even the largest stages. Without getting into technical details, this is a huge deal for electronic music. Anyone who has been to a club with an F-1 system will immediately understand.
F-1s are nearly unrivaled in their ability to reproduce music with clarity, precision, and incredible frequency extension on both ends of the audible spectrum. They have physical, immersive power that is hard to describe, but unforgettable.
I was at Tipper's show at Red Rocks here in Colorado last summer, and I believe the sound-system used for that gig was a prototype of the Vero rig. Tipper has toured with Funktion-One systems before, and Tony Andrews (founder of Funktion-One) is a friend of his. Tony was at the Red Rocks show running the system. That was without question the best sound I've ever heard at a show, so it's hard to overstate how exciting this is.
[Tipper/Red Rocks/Funktion-One show poster by Android Jones]
Of particular interest to bass heads is the new subwoofer enclosure that is premiering as part of the system. From Funktion-One's website:
The third and final launch for Prolight + Sound Frankfurt is the F132. The extraordinarily powerful horn-loaded bass enclosure features Powersoft's M-Force 10kW linear transducer and Funktion-One's specially designed cone and enclosure technology. Its single 32in driver gives a frequency response of 24Hz to 70Hz.
"We wanted to maximise the transducer's potential, so we developed our own loading technique and cone using aerospace technology. It's giving us energy right down to 24Hz. These sorts of frequencies, horn-loaded, is a new experience for everyone; it has always been ported boxes before now. We powered up four of them together and it took me two weeks to forget the molecular impression it had on my body. I've never experienced anything like it before." - Tony Andrews

text: Home > Sports Woods surpasses $100m in earnings Agence France-Presse Posted at Sep 04 2012 02:24 PM | Updated as of Sep 04 2012 10:24 PM Share Save Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Tiger Woods made golf history, finishing third in the Deutsche Bank Championship to become the first golfer to make more than $100 million in earnings on the PGA Tour. Woods made $544,000 after four rounds around the TPC Boston, pushing his career total to $100.35 million. Phil Mickelson is one spot back of Woods at $66.8 million. Mickelson placed fourth at the Deutsche Bank Championship. Woods has 74 wins, second all-time to Sam Snead, who collected $620,126 in a career that began in 1937. Prize money shot up on the PGA Tour after Woods turned pro -- a period also marked by a huge increase in television revenues. "It was nice to have a nice start to my career, and I won some majors early," said Woods, who shot a closing 66 and finished two strokes behind winner Rory McIlroy. "I think we got some interest in the game of golf. A lot more youth, that's for sure." McIlroy earned $1.4 million for his fifth career PGA Tour victory in a Monday finish at the TPC Boston. Woods, who has a net worth of about $600 million, remains in contention for the $10 million FedEx Cup bonus for winning the PGA Tour playoffs. Not included in Woods' career earnings is the millions he has received for endorsing retail products throughout his 16-year career.

National Pet Market Opportunity Study Focusing on Previous and Non-Pet Owners to be Unveiled at Global Pet Expo
- American Pet Products Association (APPA) releases National Pet Market Opportunity Study, revealing new market growth opportunities-
(ORLANDO, FL) – The American Pet Products Association (APPA) President and CEO Bob Vetere announced today the official release of the newly expanded APPA National Pet Market Opportunity Study. The report focuses on previous pet owners and non-pet owners (individuals who have never owned a pet) and identifies new market opportunities as well as barriers to pet ownership. However, the study also explores comparisons between current, previous and non-pet owning households.
One of the key findings in the survey found that while there are 84.6 million U.S. households that are current pet owners, 26.6 million U.S. households are previous pet owners and 11.4 million households have never owned a pet.
In exploring behaviors between the three pet ownership types – current, previous and non-pet owners, there are some notable demographic differences, according to this report. Current pet owners tend to live in more rural areas, have young children at home and larger households. They report somewhat lower average household incomes, are younger and own their own single family home. Conversely, previous pet owners tend to live in mid-size markets, do not have young children at home, and have the highest average household incomes. They are slightly older and live in a single-family home they own with one other person (typically their spouse). Finally, non-pet owners tend to be urban dwellers who more often live alone, rent their residence (which has a higher likelihood of being a building for three or more families) and are least likely to be married.
New to this year's study was a look at ownership by generation. One-third of current pet owners are Baby Boomers, while another one-quarter each are Gen Y and Gen X. Only 10% of current pet owners are from the Builder generation. Previous pet owners are far more likely to be Baby Boomers (43%), followed by Gen X (21%) and Builders (20%). Gen Y makes up the smallest number of previous pet owners. The non-pet owners group is composed of one-third Baby Boomers and nearly one-third Gen X respondents. One-quarter are Gen Y and the remaining are Builders.
"As an industry, we have made great strides over the past decade to promote the joys and benefits of responsible pet ownership through various campaigns and initiatives. This report provides valuable insight into identifying key opportunities for growth, and to further our mission of getting more pets into homes," said Vetere. "Another important aspect of the report is the validation that many industry initiatives, like Pets in the Classroom, are influencing families' decisions to add a pet to their homes."
In fact, the study reports that respondents with children who have experienced a pet in their classroom indicate that exposure to be a positive motivator for their family to obtain a pet. There were also questions added to this year's study to better understand the link between pet ownership as a child and pet ownership as an adult. It was found that oftentimes, pet ownership is a holdover from childhood experience and the desire for the respondents' children to have the same experience.
In addition, the report also includes the impact of current economic conditions on pet ownership, as well as the influence of TV shows/videos about pets. Media habits, leisure activities, Internet usage and care of free-roaming animals are just a few of the other topics explored.
Vetere added, "It's our hope that the data from this study will benefit the industry in understanding where growth opportunities exist for individual pet categories and the pet industry as a whole."
As a bonus, the report also includes appendices with updated pet ownership incidence figures, as well as Executive Summary material from the current 2013-2014 APPA National Pet Owners Survey. For more information, a complete Table of Contents, and to order the study, please visit http://americanpetproducts.org/pubs_petmarketstudy.asp.

I am going to buy my first bottle of Cognac in a few days. I will be using it for such things as Julia Child's French Onion Soup, among others.
Can one of you be so kind as to assist me with a brand that would be good for this? I don't want a super-expensive bottle that is just for drinking; However, I also do not want something cheap. I am told by the store that Cognac keeps for several years, so an investment in something worthwhile is not something I would be averse to.
Thank you so much for any advice you have! :)

Auburn Collision 1
Review for Auburn Collision 1
Tonette M. on 04/30/2016
Tonette said this business took care of everything she needed with no hassle and answered all her questions. Having to get the vehicle repaired was not a happy thing for her, so she appreciated how smooth the experience was. About 20 years ago, she was in another accident and her insurance company at the time recommended this business, which is why she chose to return to them.

Band of Brothers: Meet the two hero brothers who were targetted together on D-Day
TWO Royal Navy veterans are thought to be the oldest surviving brothers who fought on D-Day.
Ernie, 90, and Johnny Dale, 94, served on the same ship as Nazi shells and bullets flew around them during one of the war's most memorable days.
They were aboard HMS Frobisher providing cover fire for the invading British, US and Canadian troops as they invaded France on June 6, 1944.
We were expendable. We were there to take the fire while the landing craft headed for the beaches.
As the 70th anniversary of D-Day approaches on Friday, the brothers have talked about how they feared they would not make it home like so many comrades.
Ernie said: "We were expendable. We were there to take the fire while the landing craft headed for the beaches."
Widower Ernie was 20 and his brother 24 when they took part in the world's largest seaborne invasion. More than 5,000 ships, 160,000 troops and 1,200 planes were involved.
The two sailors were deployed off Sword beach to guard the troops by attacking Luftwaffe planes and German defences guarding the Normandy beach.
Ernie, who was called up at 18, directed anti-aircraft guns on board the warship while Johnny supplied shells from the bowels of the vessel.
Ernie, of Ditton, Kent, said: "There were coloured buoys in the water which the Germans put there for range. So if you were near one of them you could expect to be fired upon or hit."
It took a nail-biting five minutes to turn the ship around once the sailors realised they were sitting targets.
The vessel was fired upon by about 60 shells but none scored a direct hit.
But despite the heavy shelling, the father-of-three, who is now a great-grandad, said: "I went out with the feeling that it wasn't going to happen to me – and it didn't. We were just lucky."
After three days of fighting, they sailed back to Portsmouth but were there for just a day before returning to guard hospital ships. Their war ended when their ship was torpedoed.
Former BT executive and father-of-two Johnny, of Orpington, Kent, said: "If the torpedo had not hit us it could have blown up a hospital ship and possibly killed hundreds."
The brothers will be presented with commemorative medals at a ceremony for veterans at Caen in Normandy tomorrow.

As I have been here just about 11 months I have seen and made (As hard as it is to admit) allot of mistakes when publishing hub!
In the best interest of our knew hubbers I thought it would be something to for the veteran hubbers to reflect back at their most embarrassing mistakes and share them helping others to not make the same ones!
I think the most embarrassing mistake I had ever made was I could not get my my hub to publish I sent the H/P staff a letter stating that their server was down and that I needed to have them fix it. After several correspondences with H/P staff I came to realize that my browser was corrupted and I needed to fix my problem on my end!
I was so embarrassed because out of pure frustration I began telling the staff their job and all long I did not even know mine "To listen to the experts"
I do not know my mistake yet, but I think I have got the most unpredictable and miserable HubScore here, with 100 hubs my score is only 75 more or less. I wish I could know my mistake
My mistake was to place two affiliate backlinks and self serving RSS feeds in each hub. That drug my hup score to lower depths than whale dung.
The most embarressing thing for me was thinking I had to submit my hubs to google. I even asked about it in the forum! There are probably many others but as yet don't know what they are.
My worse mistake was being in a foul mood, common on the forums and really making people feel horrible. Several hubbers were shocked by my behavior e-mailed me and asked what was wrong, I had never acted that way before. Needless to say I straightened up and realized it was not me either, so I apologized for being rude and made it a better day.
2nd mistake publishing a empty hub, lololo I pushed the wrong button Oh God it was embarassing.
I am always forgetting to do the summary text. If you want to attract outside traffic your summary text is what will pull them in and I always seem to forget to look at it and make sure its decent
I used a pic once that was not public domain, errr, oops
Then you have small typos that are a bit embarrassing if you missed em.
Mine was not using competitive keywords. I also went on a "fanning spreee" on my first day here, where I tried to get fans (or followers, as the case may be).
Spelling is my biggest mistake. One time on the forums I made a post asking why we could not add a calendar to the hubs..becuase of my brilliant typing I ended up asking about "a$$ing a calendar" instead...
Being afraid to publish things. Some of my most read hubs have been ones that I wrote and sat on for months, because I didn't think anyone would like them.
Then, there was taking the forums seriously and/or personally. Had to get over that, and realize it was a place to have fun, and if I wasn't having fun, to leave.
I think the weirdest thing I have seen ona hub is placing the comments capsule at the top of the hub.
I have horrid typing skills.....and never notice in time........but so far no one has made me feel bad about it. thanks gus!!
EDIT: Oh did you mean my mistakes? I have horrible typing skills, too.
However, I saw someone having a review hub saying, "to stay away from this product", (I did not check if that was copy+pasted -- I think it was) then an amazon capsule selling that particular product. That is just plain wrong.
one short paragraph of copy which didn't make sense and nothing else. But hey, maybe I have one or two of those also from the beginning days. Who knows!
the typos
oh the typos!
I guess that type of mistake seems the worst to me, on a site for writers.
And I'm probably guilty of it now and then myself. ha
I deleted a comment box full of lovely comments by accident, I've published an empty hub, and I tried to use an Amazon UK account even though HP only accepts Amazon US so I had to reapply. No sales as yet anyway xD All my boxes are CDs and no1 seems to want to buy music any more. Oh well
i think publishing an empty hub without knowing it for 3 weeks is a bad mistake for me.. since im new here..
As we have all made many mistakes on Hub pages I think one of the biggest mistake we all have made; is we are forgeting we are a community!
Hub pages has a saying and That is "HUB LOVE". I have seen fights breaking out in the forums and hubs posted to insult another hubber or their beliefs.Is This Hub Love?
Where is the hub love in this community? Why does the staff of Hub Pages have to watch and snoop around trying to do their best to catch all the hate and spite all around that flat should not be!
In the little time I have been here; I have gotten myself in forum fights; and I believe that a few of y'all can attest to it! However what happened to the old time act of accepting our wrong and being the first one to change?
when I come across Hubs that are directed out of pure spite and hate I often wonder to myself why all this spite!
We are writing interdependently and joining as a community to support one another but yet now days all you ind is bickering and fussing amougst one another.
Many of us will never meet the one that we are having a tantrum with (No punt intended Tantrum LOL) however we are still admit to cause unnecessary hate.
OK I have vented enough I started this forum to say what most of us are making our mistake on is we have failed to give "Hub Love"
Blessings To All And May You Find Some Hub Love All Around
not using the spell checker when i first started hubbing. i bet some of my old hubs have spelling errors in them
I wrote rectum instead of spectrum.
Bet the spell check didn't help you out one bit!
LMAO not at all, I honestly don't know how I wrote it as I can assure rectums are something I do not think about. Must have been the weather.
Oh lordy! Spelling and typos are a daily nemesis - and I keep fnding them. But I had a bad day too and took it out in the forums. I was terribly embarrassed and kicked myself for days.
Well I once published a hub entitled "How To Annoy The Host." Right here I revealed some tactics that you should employ at parties if you do not like the host or the other guests!
Later I felt embarrassed that I had revealed some of the things that readers would think that I have done!
So ... I simply unpublished that hub!
The worst mistake I have ever made was to stop reading my hubs out loud before I publish them. Since I have stopped doing that I often catch a spelling error or typo after it hits the airwaves.
Then again, some people publish hubs and NEVER figure out they don't truly know how to write in English so I don't feel bad.
for me personally, on a hub I've written...BRICK WALL OF TEXT...
for ones I've read...spelling errors (not typos...a typo is something like writing "actualy" instead of actual, or flip-flopping a letter or two...) I'm talking REAL spelling errors or confusion of their there and they're is something that just personally bugs the CRAP out of me
I Hurriedly typed my first hub immediatley after i registered and went straight to the forum to ask for review without taking time to look around.
The first to responses that i got then made me went back to take a closer look at my hub. So embarrassing.

Pearl Jam entered Seattle's London Bridge Studios in March 1991 to record their debut album, Ten. Drummer Dave Krusen left the band in May 1991 after checking himself into rehabilitation and was replaced by Matt Chamberlain, but after just a handful of gigs Chamberlain left too and was superseded by Dave Abbruzzese, who played the rest of Pearl Jam's live shows supporting Ten. Released on August 27, 1991, Ten contained eleven tracks dealing with dark subjects like depression, suicide, loneliness, and murder.
Official Release #101. On the evening of October 23, 2013, Walt Disney Concert Hall was the place to be in Los Angeles, as Esa-Pekka Salonen conducted the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Los Angeles Master Chorale in a spectacular, sold-out orchestral performance of Frank Zappa's 200 Motels (The Suites). Recorded for posterity, the acclaimed, one-night-only 13-suite performance of Zappa's 1971 masterwork will be released worldwide on November 20 by Zappa Records/UMe. This 2CD release's expertly recorded audio brings the listener back to Walt Disney Concert Hall to experience the exciting 200 Motels (The Suites) spectacle, complemented by photos from the evening and essays by the show and recording's producers, Gail Zappa and Frank Filipetti, the evening's director James Darrah, 'Scoremeister' Kurt Morgan, and performers including Diva Zappa, Michael Des Barres, special guest 'Rock' rhythm section drummer Joe Travers, and former Zappa band member Scott Thunes. Essays by some notable members of the audience, including Steve Vai and Peter Asher, are also included.

Liverpool star Emre Can starred in his sides 4-1 win over Manchester City at the Etihad on the weekend but while head coach Jurgen Klopp was pleased with his performance he did highlight a couple of weaknesses to his game.
Klopp underlined that Can's inexperience gets the better of him at times but that he would improve over time.
"Emre is a young lad, he's full of emotion and everything but when you are tired in a game, then if you cannot make the way back, please don't make the way forward," he told NBC.
"He opened space sometimes but it's no problem, that's my work, I try to help, it's not so easy from outside but when you win 4-1, everything is okay."
The 21-year-old played in his favoured midfield position once again against City and received a rating of 7.39 from Whoscored.
The Germany international of Turkish origin made two key passes – one of which was an outrageous back-heel – three dribbles and maintained a passing accuracy of 69%.
The Reds moved up to ninth place with 20 points in 13 games following yesterdays victory.
Liverpool take on Bordeaux in the Europa League on Thursday and then welcome Swansea City to Anfield next weekend in the Premier League.

Today is a special edition of Gratitude Sunday, not only because it's been a while since I've posted one, but because it also falls on New Year's Day. AND it coincides with an assignment I gave to the folks participating in the 12 Days of Christmas for Writers program to make a list of everything they were grateful for in their writing lives in 2016. So I am going to do the same. The list will thus be far more than 10 items this time. I hope everyone takes inspiration from how much we can find to be thankful for, even if we are experiencing difficult times.
First, how about a few inspirational quotes on gratitude from a few of the talented geniuses who we left behind in 2016.
"Every day I feel is a blessing from God. And I consider it a new beginning. Yeah, everything is beautiful." — Prince
"For me, every hour is grace. And I feel gratitude in my heart each time I can meet someone and look at his or her smile." — Elie Wiesel
"When things get really bad, just raise your glass and stamp your feet and do a little jig. That's about all you can do." — Leonard Cohen
"I like writing books. I'd rather be at home with my wife. I can write, take a break, come out, have a glass of tea, give my wife a kiss, and go back in and write some more. It's not so bad. I am really lucky." — Gene Wilder
Gratitude list for my writing life in 2016
- Kelli Panique, my trusty assistant, right-hand woman, and without whom nothing would be possible.
- My agent, Erzsi Deak, who keeps me (mostly) sane and centered, and who inspires me to do better and better work.
- ALL of the 800+ members of 12 x 12 in 2016. I think I say this every year, but this year's group was special. We become more and more of a family with each passing year.
- Linda Silvestri, who created our beautiful 5-year anniversary banner, which was featured on a celebratory cake.
- Speaking of cake, many thanks to Julie Gribble and all the folks at KidlitTV for helping me plan and host an extraordinary anniversary party in NYC this past February. SUCH an amazing night!
- I am also grateful for having the chance to record an episode of Storymakers with KidlitTV, and thanks to Susan Eaddy for providing the brilliance behind the activity.
- To all of the 12 x 12 in 2016 webinar speakers: Tara Lazar, Deborah Warren and Erin Dealey, Sudipta Bardhank-Quallen, Michelle Cusolito, Erzsi Deak, Miranda Paul, Matthew Winner, Peter H. Reynolds, Martha Brockenbrough, Whitney Stewart and Don Tate. I learned so much from you all, but mostly I'm grateful for the inspiration.
- Katie Davis and Emma Walton Hamilton – two friends I can safely say I could not live without.
- Darshana Khiani, for being my accountability partner this year.
- Marcie Colleen, for the dance parties and everything else.
- Members of the Intense, A$$-kicking critique group: Julie Rowan-Zoch, Stacy Jensen, Carol Munro, Marcie Flinchum Atkins, and Heather Preusser. Thank you for helping me turn two of my manuscripts around in a very short time.
- I'm grateful to all the agents who dedicate their time to receiving submissions from 12 x 12 members. There were 20 of them in 2016, so I am not going to list them all, but please know how much the opportunity means to our members.
- I'm grateful to SCBWI, and especially for the 2 conferences I attended this year in NYC and Denver. Lin Oliver is not only one of the most generous human beings alive, but her presentation on how to write humor at the RMC-SCBWI conferences was one of the BEST sessions I've ever attended, hands down. Also to our local Schmooze group, especially Kim and Jeri who run it so well.
- I am grateful to all the editors who considered my manuscripts this year, even as they were turned down. Each provided me with useful feedback to help me take my writing to the next level.
- I am grateful that this writing life gives me the flexibility and freedom to design my own schedule and be active in my children's lives.
- To the entire Picture Book Summit team, for throwing another epic online conference. I had so much fun creating my "Verse Curse" presentation, and learning from the other speakers and my esteemed colleagues. We ALL work hard all year long to make that conference happen. So here's to Jon Bard & Laura Backes, Emma Walton Hamilton, Katie Davis, Kristin Ammerman, Kelli Panique and Aaron Brown.
- Having the inspiration to write 6 new manuscripts in 2016. Thanks at least in part to Tara Lazar and PiBoIdMo (now Storystorm).
- Getting one manuscript out on submission before the end of the year (thanks again, Erzsi!)
- Sarah Towle for sharing an apartment with me in Bologna and all of the ongoing love and inspiration.
- To Susan Eaddy, again, for her stunning work. Every time I open MY LOVE FOR YOU IS THE SUN it makes me catch my breath to see those illustrations.
- My bookkeeper, for helping me keep my financial head on straight.
- I"m grateful for Facebook, which enables me to keep in touch with my writing peeps every day.
- Jane Yolen and Heidi Stemple, for treating me like family, coming to my party in Feb, and for all they do for fellow writers every day.
- Seriously, so many friends there are too many to name. Know that I am grateful for ALL of you.
- I will end the list on this one. I am truly, honestly, intensely grateful for the entire kidlit community. We are so fortunate to work in an industry where everyone wants and celebrates success for everyone. Where we share our time and talent with each other, and we take a stand on making the world a better place in myriad ways. I truly don't know how I got so lucky to be surrounded by such brilliance, creativity, and kindness day in and day out. I am at the point now where I can't imagine doing anything else. Thank you.
What are you grateful for with respect to your writing life in 2016?Categories: 12 x 12, Bologna Children's Book Fair, Children's Books, Friendship, Gratitude Sunday, My Love For You Is The Sun, PiBoIdMo, Picture Books, Publishing, Rhyming, SCBWI, Writing

The new car models are produced every year and many of them become more popular than their predecessors. It is understandable, because engineers try to improve their vehicles all the time and make new modern features and details. This year public is waiting for new 2016 Dodge Avenger, which must be well refreshed. The last model has been presented several years ago, so it will be interesting to see, what has changed this time and what became better. Let's overview the changes and differences of the new car, speak about the release, prices and most common questions.
The main differences
So, what is planned to be mostly changed is the exterior of the vehicle. As it is waited, we will see the new modernized cabin, which is deferent from the previous one. It will have though some similarities with some new models of Chrysler and others. All in all, the car will look really bigger, more bossy, so to say. Also a big work would be done upon the space inside of it. Now it will be bigger so that more people can ride in it and a lot of things could be stored there during the long rides.
The car 2016 Dodge Avenger will look brutal and powerful, so many customers should like the new design. Some details also will be added, like black grid, which looks really stylish. Inside the car will be certainly equipped with a lot of gadgets, which will provide comfortable ride for short and long distances and both driver and passenger will feel comfortable.
New Specs
The new model will be the sedan of mid-class. It is not too big but at the same time is not very compact. So, those who like average cars, will enjoy this new model for sure. The car will be equipped with standard engine, so it has normal usual power, which will be good for usual everyday life. but modern equipment will provide regular checking of the engine and other systems, which will help you to save the life of them for longer time.
Release and price
All in all the new 2016 Dodge Avenger must be really good selling due to the new design and options. It combines some standard details together with luxury and brutality. It is a perfect choice for everyday usage for yourself or a family.
We will hope that the release date will be known soon, because by now there are only rumors around and no one knows the concrete date. Possibly the car will be presented in the end of the coming year. Also according to the valid information the price will be around $20.000.

Nikiski / North Kenai is a beautiful sprawling town of just over 4,000. Located at the end of the Kenai Spur Highway just 13 miles north of Kenai. This oil rich community has breathtaking views of the Cook Inlet. The town is quite spread out and many home owners live with lots of privacy. The town has also been known as Port Nikiski and Nikishka.
Economy: Oil was discovered on the Cook Inlet in 1957 and has been the largest industry since. The industrial footprint is largely compromised with off-shore oil rigs and on-shore wells, distribution, oil and fertilizer refinery facilities and the many supporting service companies. The oil and gas industry is the leading employer for North Kenai. The second largest industry is a mix of commercial, set-net and sport fisheries. The east bank of the Cook Inlet has numerous set-net sites
Education: There are a few schooling options, North Star Elementary, Nikiski Middle and Nikiski High School. There are many families that also choose to homeschool their children.
Parks/Quality of Life: Nikiski has a lot to offer for the outdoor recreational pursuits, the Captain Cook State Recreation site is a great place for virtually all of your favorite activities. The recreation area is 3,466 acres and boasts amazing fishing, ample camping, and designated four-wheeling areas. It is also the launch point for many remote cabins and trails access via the beach and the gas line trail. The Swanson River is a main popular attraction for float trips and great fishing! The canoe trail starts in Sterling and takes out at Captain Cook Park.
The Nikiski community recreation area is a very popular destination that features an indoor pool with hot tubs, and a huge water slide. The recreation area also has a gym, racquetball courts, ice rink, indoor golf simulator and a soccer field and running trails. If you work in the oil industry or just looking for a great place to live Nikiski is a great place to look!


text: This question has been bouncing around with me for a while. A lot of us here on the budget board complain about folks walking around with "entitlement" issues but personally I always think it's a monster we created. I mentor 18-19 year old girls in the Philly/NJ area. These girls come from solid middle class average families. Let me tell you about the average girl 1) every last one of them has some type of designer bag (coach, louie, fendi) 2) every last one of them has the latest cell phone. I've met a number of their parents who then complain about $200 bills but when you suggest they cut the phone off, you always get the ridiculous excuse "they need it for emergencies". Honey, 200 bucks did not come from an emergency. 3) all of them spend weekends at the Jersey shore for recreation. 4) not one has a job 5) All or most routinely get nails done and don't get me started on proms and senior trips. 6) quite a few have credit cards. Now if this is the average american teen, do we really expect them to morph into young adults who will "wait" to earn luxuries? Are we really shocked when they buy a $200K "starter" home? I just don't understand why we are so shocked?
