New Philadelphia Eagles head coach Chip Kelly said he was never close to becoming the head coach of the Browns in January.
He said the numerous reports saying he was close to signing a deal were, "erroneous."
Kelly and Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and team president Joe Banner met in Arizona for a reported seven hours without coming to a deal. That night, numerous reports stated the two had come to an agreement but Kelly wanted to fulfill his agreement to meet with Buffalo and Philadelphia before signing a contract.
The Browns Rob Chudzinski to coach the team a week later.
Kelly, speaking at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis, said he chose to coach the Eagles because it was the right fit.

Cash Back.
Cash Back.
In todays' economic market, cash back, reward points and air miles are very much in bloom. This prompted me to have a closer look at the cash back offers within the travel industry. Little did I know that there were so many around, it made my head spin.
One thing you need to look out for, is that many of these cash back sites cold suddenly disapppear. But never fear, I'm still on the lookout for the best sites based in the UK, USA and other Countries. For now, if you are based in the UK, google cash back on travel products" and a list of possibles will appear.
At a quick glance, I've seen cash back from 1.5% – 9% on many travel products. Also £2.50 – £70.00 cash back on many other products. However, I did not really have the time to see if the site had a possibility on longeverity.
Travel Products You Can Get Cash Back On.
The list is endless, far too many to mention here. A few examples would be flights, travel insurance, holiday package deals, mobile phones, travel accessories and more. A good place to start would be with a travel service you are interested in using and ask them. Or look for cash back incentives on their website.
There you have it, if cash back is your thing. (I guess it could be for all of us). Then do a little research or ask friends and family if they know of any cash back incentives.

[From the Redmond Reporter article, MARCH 9, 2012]
The cities of Redmond, Kirkland, Bothell, Duvall and Kenmore have declared March 9, 2012 "Evergreen Healthcare Day" in recognition of Evergreen Hospital's 40th anniversary of service as a public hospital.
The proclamations recognize Evergreen for its history of dedication to "high quality, safe, compassionate and cost-effective healthcare."
Redmond Mayor John Marchione and the mayors of the other cities have encouraged all citizens to join them in recognizing Evergreen Healthcare for 40 years of enriching the health and well-being of every life Evergreen has touched.
"On behalf of the board of commissioners, employees, our community provider partners, volunteers and staff, today we celebrate those who had the vision more than 40 years ago to anticipate and meet the health needs of a growing Eastside," said Evergreen Chief Executive Officer Bob Malte. "For the next 40 years and beyond we'll continue to honor that vision and provide breakthrough care in all of the communities we are proud to serve."

the year they almost destroyed california
In comments over at law professor Eric Muller's blog, a former Navy Reserve officer named William J. Hopwood has for many months been defending the WWII internment of Japanese-American citizens. Supporting Regnery hack Michelle Malkin's depiction of a perfidious Japanese fifth column and its preparations to support an assault by the Japanese military, Hopwood has insisted that the threat of an armed attack against the west coast of the continental United States was very real and very dangerous.Pressed this week to discuss the logistics behind a significant Japanese attack on California, Oregon, or Washington, Hopwood instead finally described specifics regarding the kind of crushing assault that Japan had in store for those weak and poorly defended American coastal outposts:
As late in the war as the final months of 1944 one such plan, a Kamikaze mission, called for a landing in California of over 200 specially trained troops who were to have been transported by submarines and landed near Santa Barbara. Their mission was to shoot their way into Los Angeles, destroy Douglas and Lockheed aircraft factories, and kill as many Americans as possible, fully expecting to be finally annihilated themselves.You read that right: The Japanese had over 200 soldiers being readied to race up the beach and attack California.
Puts a whole different spin on the mistreatment of 80,000 American citizens, doesn't it?

The Conspirator
Director : Robert Redford
Screenplay : James D. Solomon (story by James D. Solomon & Gregory Bernstein)
MPAA Rating : PG-13
Year of Release : 2011
Stars : James McAvoy (Frederick Aiken), Robin Wright (Mary Surratt), Kevin Kline (Secretary Edwin M. Stanton), Evan Rachel Wood (Anna Surratt), Tom Wilkinson (Reverdy Johnson), Alexis Bledel (Sarah), Danny Huston (Joseph Holt), Justin Long (Nicholas Baker), Colm Meaney (Gen. David Hunter), James Badge Dale (William Hamilton), Johnny Simmons (John Surratt), Toby Kebbell (John Wilkes Booth), Jonathan Groff (Louis Weichman), Stephen Root (John Lloyd)
I imagine that viewers will likely be split by the transparency with which Robert Redford's The Conspirator, a handsomely mounted dramatization of the trial of Mary Surratt, who was accused of conspiring to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, comments on the political atmosphere of the past decade. Some will find the film's application of historical events to the current climate--the more things change, the more they stay the same--galvanizing and brave, while others will find it obvious and overstated, a case of overreach that doesn't properly address the here and now while subjugating history to modern politicization. It is particularly interesting that Redford would tackle this project as his follow-up to Lions for Lambs (2007), a talky, mostly failed attempt to engage the various political issues surrounding the "war on terror." Perhaps due to that film's failure to connect with either audiences or critics, Redford felt the need to cloak, however thinly, his political message in the guise of historical record, drawing parallels between the betrayal of constitutional rights and rule of law following Lincoln's assassination with the violent political rhetoric in the wake of 9/11.
The story centers around the military trial of Mary Surratt (Robin Wright), a widower who owned a boarding house in Washington, D.C., that was a favored meeting spot for the men who conspired to assassinate Lincoln, including John Wilkes Booth (Toby Kebbell), the actor who pulled the trigger in Ford's Theater on April 14, 1865. Surratt is initially defended by Reverdy Johnson (Tom Wilkinson), an outspoken senator from Maryland who must step down because he realizes that a senator from a state that was never fully aligned with the Union during the Civil War is a liability. Instead, he asks Frederick Aiken (James McAvoy), a well-respected Army captain and war veteran to take over the defense. Aiken is understandably reluctant because Surratt has long since been tried and convicted in the court of public opinion, and his mounting a vigorous defense would be seen by his friends and social peers as tantamount to treason (never mind the Constitution's guarantee of a fair trial for everyone--emotion trumps reason every time). Aiken also finds himself up against not just an aggressive prosecutor (Danny Huston) and a military court predisposed to finding Surratt guilty, but also the behind-the-scenes machinations of Edwin M. Stanton (Kevin Kline), the Secretary of War who believes that Surratt's conviction and execution is essential to keeping the peace and ensuring that there is not another Southern insurrection.
Thus, the trial itself is fundamentally a sham, and the more Aiken comes to believe that Surratt, a faithful Catholic and determined mother, is not guilty, at least of the charges brought against her, the more he becomes aware of the manner in which law and reason, the bedrocks of the democracy he fought and nearly died defending, can be set aside in favor of specific ideologies that assert emotionally resounding arguments about safety, security, and simplistically defined notions of evil. Screenwriter James D. Solomon, who studied Surratt's trial transcripts quite extensively, works in fairly broad strokes, as do the actors, with Kline playing Stanton as the very epitome of dangerous pomposity in the Dick Cheney mold while Wright makes Surratt into a fierce, resilient martyr and McAvoy struggles furiously as the film's growing conscience, sacrificing his social standing, fiancée (Alexis Bledel), and possibly even his sense of self to ensure that his client is given a proper trial.
Redford directs The Conspirator in a notable theatrical manner, playing up the tensions in the courtroom and rarely if ever straying from enclosed spaces, which are filmed quite beautifully by veteran cinematographer Newton Thomas Siegel (Three Kings, Valkyrie), who baths the rooms in swaths of dust and cigar smoke and piercing shafts of intrusive sunlight. It is, in every sense, a chamber drama with wide-ranging political implications, and the material suits the ideological intent quite well, even if it sometimes feels a bit too obvious in its parallels. I suppose the idea is that retelling the story of how Surratt was sacrificed to appease the country's fears of coming apart at the seams might somehow trigger in more conservative viewers the realization that its contemporary parallels are just as misguided and, potentially, destructive. Yet, for all its engaging dramatic qualities (it is never at any point dull or stilted), The Conspirator ultimately feels a bit too much like preaching to the choir.

How to get Win7 thumbnail previews on Windows Vista taskbar?
by josephfuentes - 5/8/10 8:32 PM
I have Win Vista complete w.aero feature and all that.
I know how to make my icons in my taskbar just into pure icons the way Win 7 does. I have that done already.
What I don't know is what third party program, FREE of course, I can so that when it can give me a side by side flyout thumbnails previews?
Let me explain.
Let's say for instance I have 2 (two) instances of IE running. I have but one IE icon on my taskbar. What I'd like to have happen is when I move my mouse cursor the IE icon, BOTH thumbnail previews (one for each IE I have open) pop up.
Is there some third party app to do this? I'm not so interested in the full aeropeek feature that everyone talks about - my requirement is much more narrow.
Thanks in advance!

The majority of the European markets finished in positive territory Wednesday, following the weakness of the previous two sessions. One of the major catalysts today came from new stimulus measures announced by the Bank of Japan. The markets received further support in the afternoon, after the U.S. reported some solid housing data.
The Bank of Japan on Wednesday announced a fresh round of stimulus to revive the economy by expanding the asset purchase by another JPY 10 trillion. The central bank also cut its assessment of the economy, saying the recovery is "pausing."
In addition, the central bank extended the intended timescale for completing the asset purchases till the end of December 2013 compared to its previous deadline of end of June 2013.
Bank of England policymakers unanimously decided to maintain quantitative easing at GBP 375 billion and the interest rate unchanged at 0.50 percent, the minutes of the meeting held on September 5 and 6 showed Wednesday.
The nine-member Monetary Policy Committee discussed whether it was appropriate to modify or continue with the programme of asset purchases it had agreed at its July meeting.
Germany's two-year note fetched positive yield for the first time since June at an auction on Wednesday. The country raised EUR 4.084 billion from the sale of its federal notes due September 2014, Bundesbank said. The auction drew bids totaling EUR 8.446 billion against a target of EUR 5 billion. The yield on the two-year debt known as Schatz rose to 0.06 percent from zero percent seen in the previous sale on August 22.

Under the Microscope - Provinces of Night
Provinces of Night
Provinces of Night, by William Gay, is a brilliant and dark country noir, but one so beautiful in its bleakness that it almost glows in the dark. Poverty, music, the frayed and brutal ties of family, the possibility of life, and the approach of death all play a part in this story spun out on the dirt roads of the back country. There's drinking here, and the power of stories and myths (the kind told about us and the kind we tell about ourselves), and characters that slink through our brains, unwilling ever to completely leave the stoops of our imaginations. Why leave? Not when there's a song to be played and a few more drinks to be had.
And yes, yes, prose so perfect it makes you want to drink a little yourself.

Educational Programs and Conferences
The Pennsylvania Game Breeders Association holds the annual Pennsylvania Game Breeders and Hunting Preserves Conference in cooperation with Penn State Extension each February.
Mid-Atlantic Nutrition Conference is recognized as a premier educational event for the animal nutrition industry. Local, national, and international nutritionists share new, innovative, and practical research being conducted at universities, in industry and at government institutions. Regulatory issues and future opportunities are discussed. The program is focused on poultry, dairy, and equine nutrition.
National Egg Quality School teaches about egg quality in a concentrated, comprehensive four days school. Individualized instruction coupled with "hands on" laboratory experience have proven to be successful techniques in preparing the student to become more knowledgeable about eggs.
The Mission of the symposium continues to provide cutting edge, timely, and hard hitting presentations that address the need for comprehensive programs and that assist members of the poultry system to fulfill their individual and collective environmental protection responsibilities.
The Pennsylvania Egg Quality Assurance Program (PEQAP) is a voluntary certification training program for egg producers, processors, and those technicians responsible for environment and egg sampling to train and certify program participants.
The 2013 conference was held at the Eden Hotel, Lancaster, PA, on Sept. 17 and 18.
Is a monthly lunch meeting held October to June each year. Contact Paul Patterson firstname.lastname@example.com or Gregory Martin firstname.lastname@example.com for more information. There is never a dull moment for poultry producers and the allied industries that support them. As with any agricultural enterprise, there are ups and downs, challenges, and joys producing meat and eggs for an American and global market. Economic and legislative challenges on the home front top the list. This noon seminar series is normally held on the second Monday of the months of Oct., Nov., Dec., March, April, May, and June. The seminar starts with a noon buffet lunch ($15) followed by the seminar speaker's presentation. Check the Poultry Extension Calendar for exact dates, times, and location. Recent programs have been recorded for individuals that have not been able to attend.
Annual program is designed for all youth 12 years of age and older and adults who enjoy learning or teaching youth about poultry.

I seem to be having difficulty with the "master 4 words now". I can't seem to get past one lesson where there are only three words listed. The fourth word is blank. Tried different ways to get around it but so far I can only get to 44% or 91%. Not sure what to do now…it happened one time in the review section as well.

Fort Harrison State Park has been designated as an Important Bird Area by Audubon because of the community of interior-forest and woodland birds that breed within the park. Enhancing the habitat further by removing invasive species and planting native plants is important to me because of the positive impact it has on the ecosystem. The more people who volunteer to help, the more effective the outcome.

From Top of the Ticket
Due to an unfortunate (and no doubt accidental) error of timing, the news of a nearly quarter-million-dollar federal fine levied against the vice president of the United States, Joe "What Checks?" Biden, was announced Friday — a hot summer day when hardly anyone was paying attention to anything but the tempting weekend at the next exit.
The lifetime politician himself was off raising money for Democrats in Nashville at the time, and the president, Barack Obama, was out of town on another family vacation not on the gulf coast. Biden returns to the political money-raising trail again this week. Democrat vice president Joe Biden really likes ice cream cones
As a public service to the many readers gripped by the personal tale of the man who became a senator from tiny little Delaware when Obama was a mere sixth-grader, The Ticket is publishing news of the campaign's fine this morning after a weekend of safe-keeping.
The Federal Election Commission announced that after an audit of Biden's notoriously unsuccessful presidential campaign of 2007-08, during which he accepted more than $2 million in federal funds, the agency was fining him $219,000. Biden finished fifth in the Iowa caucuses.

A classic example of tremendous power and great finesse. The wine presents a symphony of aromas from sweet black fruit to cigar box, from savory spices of clove, allspice and licorice to dried herbs and flowers, even a touch of minerality. This complexity carries over to the palate with flavors that are reminiscent of spiced chutney. The bold flavors are wrapped in a blanket of supple tannins and persist through an extraordinarily long finish. It's a wine sure to enhance any dining experience. Savor it alongside venison chops with blackberry compote, bacon-wrapped quail, or a selection of aged artisan cheeses.
"Almost sure to raise controversy with its involving aromas of leather, roasted coffee, scorched chocolate and herbs, this unique offering smacks ever so faintly of Syrah and may not fit the fruity Cabernet model, but its complexity is beyond any argument. It is smooth and supple in feel with plenty of palatal weight and a fine sense of polish, and its neatly fit spine of firm structural tannins is precisely the stuff of fine Cabernet. A few years of age should make a good thing better, and it has room enough for ten years of growth."

WHO#02 - The Swifter
Limited Edition Vinyl LP
Projected release date: October 2012 (TBC)
Track listing:
A1: End of Capstan Bars
A2: Neap tide
B1: Swallow
B2: Wave Guidance Allows Three
Photography – Chris Bigg.
Introducing The Swifter – a new trio featuring Andrea Belfi (drums and percussion), BJNilsen (electronics) and Simon James Phillips (piano).
Their debut album documents the first encounter of the three musicians. Recorded live in the Grunewald Church, Berlin, careful attention was given to capturing the unique resonant acoustic offered by the airy, stone building, exhibiting the broad palate of aesthetic qualities the group are able to create. Subtly evolving sound worlds that evoke, at times, the loneliness within a ship's hold; a relentlessly driven wall of harmonically rich sound or a sonic fog that lifts to reveal a delicate instrumental discourse.
Nilsen sources material from the soundboard of the giant Bösendorfer Imperial concert grand played by Phillips. This setup facilitates a oneness of sound that Nilsen subtly manipulates to either augment or contrast against the unique sonic world of Phillips' playing – which is carefully punctuated or driven by Belfi's distinctive style.
The album's cover features double-exposure photography shot by Chris Bigg (David Sylvian/4AD). Available as a limited edition vinyl LP and as FLAC download on The Wormhole, a byproduct of The Tapeworm.

The Saratogian (saratogian.com), Serving the Saratoga Springs, N.Y. region
Thursday, February 14, 2013
By JENNIE GREY
SARATOGA SPRINGS — With today's technology, employees can do many kinds of work remotely, from another office, a hotel, home — even a coffee shop. Local entrepreneur Elliott Masie of the Masie Center plans to explore all these possibilities at his national telework conference planned for June 23-25 in the Spa City.
"If you got a job in another city, your new employer used to say, 'When can you move?' Now the question is 'When can you start?' " Masie said at a news conference Thursday. "You can work from 12 stops down the Northway or from 12,000 miles away."
The Masie Center is a think tank focused on how organizations can support learning and knowledge within the work force. With the telework trend on the rise, Masie and the center began looking into aspects of technology, management and adaptation. The idea of the new conference, TeleWork 2013, coalesced.
The conference will be held at the City Center and will feature 16 seminars ranging from "Telework Tech: Technology for Distributed Workers" to "Telework Collaboration: The Social Side of Telework." Susan Cain, author of the book "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking," will be the main speaker.
"This will be the first gathering of corporations affected by telework," Masie said. "Senior executives from such companies as Google, American Express and General Electric will be there."
TeleWork 2013 also will feature a concert in which Broadway singers will perform together from various telelocations to meld remotely at Skidmore College's Zankel Music Center.
The conference will be good for the area, increasing awareness of the county and its possibilities as a workplace, Masie said.
"There will be a positive economic impact to attracting teleworkers," Saratoga County Chamber of Commerce President Todd Shimkus said. "We'd like to attract people to live here in the county and work anywhere."
Two of Masie's coworkers joined the news conference remotely, showing the possibilities of telework live, but not in person. Hunter Arnold, co-owner and co-producer of the conference, was present from Chicago via Skype. He has worked from Orlando and Ho Chi Minh City this past year, he said.
Masie Center employee Mollie Kavanagh also checked in remotely, though she was just upstairs. Her screen presence arrived in a cutting-edge form: the VGo, a robotic telepresence solution. The VGo is a two-wheeled self-balancing personal transport, with a screen at the top. Kavanagh demonstrated how she could move around the conference room as though actually there.
"Show how you can blink, Mollie," Masie said, and lights flashed above the VGo screen, calling everyone's attention to her presence.
Masie said he knows just how he'll open the conference in June. He'll play the bugle Call to the Post, notes that are characteristically Saratogian.
"Horses telework," he said, smiling.

I have owned this product for many years but finally used it fishing for stripers jigging spoons over a wind blow ridge during a very windy week. Great product and we caught stripers, walleye, drum, white bass and black bass!

Rated 3 out of 5 by MichFish Missing Something
The drift sock works great but it should really come with the float harness that is sold separately. I've lost more than one of these things because it sinks like... well... an anchor if it manages to come unhitched from the boat. In rough water on Lake Erie it can manage to come unhitched. If you do pick this up make sure you get the float harness. No complaints about the actual product just the way they sell essential products separately.

The former Two and a Half actor took to the stage in Washington DC on Tuesday night, after spending the morning discussing custody arrangements for his twins in LA.
"Is it the craziest f**king idea ever? Is there anybody in here that would actually f**king vote for me?" he asked the audience, according to Politico.
The political website reports that Sheen, who named Nicolas Cage as his ideal running partner, also referenced claims about President Obama's citizenship.
"For starters, I was f**king born here, how about that?" he is quoted as saying. "And I got proof! Nothing photoshopped about my birth certificate."
The show began one hour later than originally billed because of Sheen's court commitments in California, where a judge ruled that custody arrangements between himself and former wife Brooke Mueller over their sons should remain the same.
Other reports have suggested that some audience members walked out of the DAR Constitution Hall during his performance, while Real Housewives of DC stars Michaele and Tareq Salahi were among those in attendance.
Sheen has another nine scheduled stops on his live tour.

"If a state or local agency has a state or local investigation that is either significant enough or time sensitive, they can contact me and I'll put them in touch with the behavioral analysis unit," said FBI special agent Frank Charles.
Charles can't comment in detail about Gibson's case, but he does explain the goal is for police to understand every possible aspect of a criminal mind.
"It just tries to get inside of who they are and why they do what they do," said Charles.
"Typically, the analyst will set up link analysis charts to show the relationships between the criminals or the criminals and the victims," said Charles. "(The) BAU can say, 'This is what you need to ask this person.' or 'This is how you need too approach this person,'" said Charles.
For police, finding out who Gibson is is a crucial part to figuring out who else was a victim in Gibson's past.
"You really don't think of something like this happening in your hometown, having gone on for so long and so long and undetected," said Knight.
The Behavioral Analysis Unit never turns down any request for help, but right now it's unclear if that unit is already assisting in the investigation.
Gibson is a registered sex offender. In addition to the two murder charges, he also faces a charge for being a habitual offender.
He is scheduled to appear in court at the end of the month.

When most Washington residents hear "Snoqualmie," they think first of Snoqualmie Pass and its ski areas [1], then Snoqualmie Falls [2], which looked so ominous in the credits of the 1990 TV show Twin Peaks. The small town of Snoqualmie [3] is usually an afterthought, unless you live there or have come to appreciate the great restaurants and beautiful scenery of the area.
Snoqualmie Pass is the easiest way through the Cascades in winter: It has both the widest highway (I-5) and lowest elevation of any of the mountain passes. The ski areas at the summit bring a lot of vehicular traffic through the region.

IP-based virtual private network (VPN) services offer organizations cost-effective, fully meshed business connectivity between offices, across the same town or across the globe, and can represent a more cost-efficient and secure option than frame relay (FR), asynchronous transfer mode (ATM), private line or the public Internet. However, the routing algorithms and protocols of underlying IP and multiprotocol label switching (IP/MPLS) technology, coupled with ubiquitous access options (such as Carrier Ethernet, DSL and fiber), add a significant level of complexity.
For the IP VPN or Ethernet VPN service to be effective and operationally efficient and to support the varied applications used in modern business, communication service providers (CSPs) must be able to impose class-of-service policy, uphold quality of service (QoS), prioritize traffic, and simplify VPN network performance and service management. Now, enterprises demand more from their CSPs, as they struggle to manage massive application deployments, cloud services, BYOD and ballooning IT costs. To meet these demands, providers need a thorough understanding of their IP infrastructure, VPN services, associated end users, and committed levels of service, plus the ability to demonstrate these service levels to the enterprise customer.
InfoVista enables CSPs to deliver these network service level proof-points as well as the increasingly critical application visibility and performance component using flow and DPI- based data sourced from InfoVista's 5View appliances, pre-built integrations with Cisco's Application Visibility & Control (AVC) or Alcatel-Lucent's 5670 Reporting and Analysis Manager (RAM) solutions.
InfoVista's VistaInsight® for Networks enables service providers to manage and report on their network performance as well as their customers' VPNs, empowering CSPs to identify and address problems across the backbone, aggregation and access networks before end users are affected. These same capabilities can be used to monitor network load against capacity and ensure sufficient bandwidth as well as the delivery of high quality, high availability services. An intuitive VPN performance management portal can be extended from the CSP to its enterprise customers to verify compliance with service-level agreements (SLAs), ensure appropriate class-of-service policies, confirm business application usage, and maintain the most efficient use of resources.
Key Features
VistaInsight® for Networks, InfoVista's network performance management solution for VPN reporting, provides:
- An enterprise-class customer portal to verify IP MPLS network performance compliance with SLAs, ensure appropriate class-of-service policies, confirm business application usage, and maintain efficient use of subscribed resources
- Flexible QoS performance management and reporting to give operational staff an acute understanding of class-based policy enforcement and ensure customer traffic is delivered against committed service levels

Apple's new fusion drive might not deliver the punch we might expect. Work provides me with a one year old MacBook Pro with an i7 cpu. It should be a capable machine, but I found it to be slow and incapable of running many apps / having many files open without becoming unstable (memory management problems, pinwheel of death, the OS getting confused about which app is in the foreground, video display not being updated).
So IT replaced the hard drive with a solid state drive and upgraded to the latest OS. Yes, it boots faster, but all of the other slowness etc is still there. In my case a super fast drive did not improve performance, so I would wonder about how fast the new iMac will be, given that an almost new MacBook Pro is not a whole lot faster than a low end, 10 year old Dell box running Win7.

Photographer's Note
This old "Potty" chair, now contains a much more pleasant container. Once summer hits in Ontario, we gardeners are imaginative and artistic in our endeavours to make yards even more alive and whimsical. Old ladders, mowers, wheelbarrows, benches and many other rejects have found their way into backyard gardens. Great fun!
This is a re-post. I cropped the image closer and removed a hole in the wall behind the chair. Thanks, S!

It was the best food that we had in Costa Rica! We only stayed one night but it would have been great to spend two for the food. Really appreciated that Joel embraces sustainable tourism and environmental awareness.
