Music marks the times, both past and present, we live in. With the right promotional items, the favorite tunes of your clients and colleagues will continue to thrive as their heritages are protected and properly stored over the long-term future. Custom CD cases for the vehicles of consumers will keep road trips entertaining, daily business routes from becoming stale and the music of all those who listen to it sounding great. All around the world, cultures identify themselves through many vehicles including the distinct sound of the rhythm best suited to the cultural flavor of the period. Music of all sounds and styles, from classical and opera to reggae and rock define our most heralded beliefs and ideals. With these promotional products, consumers will be able to keep a firm grasp on those musical ideas as they travel towards a better future for both themselves and the companies they represent. Send messages pertaining to your organization through promotional car CD cases protecting the music and, more importantly, the lives of those who listen to it in their own vehicles.
These promotional items allow many positive standards to be actively expressed by your organization, detailing what it is your business stands for. As previously mentioned, music has defined the times of both growth and recession experienced by this country. The 20s brought about the popularity of jazz and rhythm and blues, a laid-back sound through the years of prohibition in the United States where people still needed the means to sit back and enjoy good times. The 60s brought on a voice of protest against political powers run amok through the eyes of the people as rock n' roll made its way to center stage, a rally cry for those who wanted to stand up to the abuse of power and deception. The 70s and 80s gave way to a distinct sound merging techno with alternative rock music in the decades where funk displaced the conventional. It was not until the 90s when sounds became so varied and so many types of music were presented that promotional car CD cases became necessary to authenticate the voices of many through different styles of music and their adjoining cultures.
Businesses have taken advantage of this music and emotion connection with the advent of custom CD cases. These common promotional products protects CDs from disc scratching, dust damage and anything aside from the normal wear and tear. Scratches and dust cause discs to skip or not play at all, rendering the CD useless. With the esteem in which people have held music throughout history, these promotional items have been indispensable tools to prevent disc harm. With your signature business logo imprinted on the cover of these cases, your company can revel in the endorsement of proper CD care and maintenance when your clients and employees store the music they so fondly cherish. Allow them when opening and closing these custom automotive accessories to realize it is your company who stands for more than the dollar sign but for the harmony expressed through the sharp musical tones of compact discs. You defend such free expression and harmony, standards anyone would wish to be associated with, businesses too few of which actually stand by. Your business can be boldly different with the help of promotional car CD cases.
On a smaller, subtler scale, promotional CD cases with your signature business logo define the identity by which your company conducts its service and works with consumers to reach positive outcomes. Standing out from the normal line-up of corporate identities means marketing at a level where expression extracts convention. Custom CD cases are the promotional items representing that very movement. In doing so, your company will branch out to different audiences of various backgrounds, a model every business wishes to achieve. The ability to engage a multitude of business audiences as different as the music they listen to is priceless for companies wanting to make a name for themselves. Promotional car CD cases not only protect the music of your associates while they are riding in their cars, it protects the power of their own voices in the corporate world. Tell them, through these custom automotive accessories, you want their voices to be heard from all points of the national infrastructure.

Jesus frees a demon-possessed man
26 Jesus and his disciples sailed to the Gerasenes' land, which is across the lake from Galilee. 27 As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, a certain man met him. The man was from the city and was possessed by demons. For a long time, he had lived among the tombs, naked and homeless. 28 When he saw Jesus, he shrieked and fell down before him. Then he shouted, " What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don't torture me! " 29 He said this because Jesus had already commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had taken possession of him, so he would be bound with leg irons and chains and placed under guard. But he would break his restraints, and the demon would force him into the wilderness.
30 Jesus asked him, " What is your name? "
" Legion, " he replied, because many demons had entered him. 31 They pleaded with him not to order them to go back into the abyss.t32 A large herd of pigs was feeding on the hillside. The demons begged Jesus to let them go into the pigs. Jesus gave them permission, 33 and the demons left the man and entered the pigs. The herd rushed down the cliff into the lake and drowned.
34 When those who tended the pigs saw what happened, they ran away and told the story in the city and in the countryside. 35 People came to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone. He was sitting at Jesus' feet, fully dressed and completely sane. They were filled with awe. 36 Those people who had actually seen what had happened told them how the demon-possessed man had been delivered. 37 Then everyone gathered from the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave their area because they were overcome with fear. So he got into the boat and returned across the lake. 38 The man from whom the demons had gone begged to come along with Jesus as one of his disciples. Jesus sent him away, saying, 39 " Return home and tell the story of what God has done for you. " So he went throughout the city proclaiming what Jesus had done for him.

Banners in churches have, in the past, been used mainly for processions, inside or outside of the church building. However, the emphasis has, in recent years, shifted markedly towards the permanent or transient display of banners on walls or pillars of churches and other places of worship. A famous example of large banners on display is Liverpool R.C. Cathedral, where banners are designed by a resident artist. Banners showcase your message anywhere and are perfect for display.

I find the greatest satisfaction teaching art. I enjoy helping someone else learn to create their own art, in their own style. I really have no interest in selling anything.I am a student at East Tennessee State University. I have a Facebook account Jerry Boone or facebook.com/jerrybomb . Friends around the world is what I like. See if you can learn to make your own art before you buy someone elses. The art you make yourself is priceless.

How do you find a doctor with the best credentials, a good bedside manner, and a warm personality? There are many ways to find a physician, but only a few methods will produce the right chemistry.
Finding a New Physician
Your local hospital or community medical center most likely has a physician referral service. Use it. When you call the service, have your questions about the doctor ready. A sample question list may look like this:
- Is the doctor male or female?
- How long has the doctor been in practice?
- Where did the doctor go to medical school?
- How old is he/she?
- What are his/her specialties?
- Is the physician Board certified?
- What are the physician's areas of interest or research?
- Is this doctor accepting new patients?
- Is the doctor willing to meet with me in person to address my questions before I consult him/her about my specific problem?
- Does the doctor speak Spanish? (Or whatever language you may need)
- Can I reach the doctor after hours?
Word of mouth is usually a good referral source, as well. Remember though, that your friend's expectations of a physician may not match yours. Meet the doctor yourself before making any final decisions.
Interview the Doctor
Perhaps the best way to determine if a physician is a good match for you is to book an appointment or consultation to meet him, before addressing your specific health problem(s). Most offices will accommodate your request for an interview and will usually charge you for a brief office visit, depending on how long the meeting takes. Ask about the office fee policy prior to the interview.
During your interview, be aware of your instincts and first reaction when meeting the physician.
- Does she maintain eye contact with you?
- Does he fully answer your questions and explain anything that may be unclear?
- Do you feel rushed or unimportant?
- What is the physician's general attitude? Is he open to your questions, or do you find yourself trying to justify and explain your requests?
Know Your Medical History
Dr. Christiane Northrup, author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom, stresses the importance of knowing your medical history: "It is helpful for each woman to get her medical, social, and family history straight," she says. "Our patients fill out an extensive questionnaire that covers their medical history, their family history, and a 'daily living profile' in which they check off the effects of their living situation, job, relationships, and other factors on their health." Understanding your family history can make an enormous difference when describing your health problems to a physician.
Keep a Copy of Your Medical Records
Your medical records are a written medical "history" that should be continuously updated and maintained by both you and your doctor. If you are switching to a new doctor, get two copies of your records—one set for the new doctor and one set for your own records. Read them thoroughly. Familiarize yourself with the contents and terminology. If the records are not legible, ask the nurses in the physician's practice to interpret them. Invest in a small medical dictionary to help you understand basic medical terminology and abbreviations.
Make sure that you get a complete copy of your records, including the doctor's progress notes. If you have any radiology procedures performed (such as x-rays, mammograms, etc.), it is crucial to get a copy of these reports as well.
Most medical offices have special procedures for releasing medical records. You will probably have to sign a permission form before they release the records to you. You must pick the records up in person, and sometimes there is a small charge for copying and compiling them.
The Office Visit: Your Time
Come to your office visit with a list of your symptoms, the medicines you take, any drug allergies, and a general idea of when your symptoms began. If the doctor seems rushed or preoccupied, call her on it. Make the physician aware of how his actions make you feel.
Insist on speaking to the doctor before you disrobe so that you can meet "face-to-face" in a neutral environment. If your doctor will not honor this request, it is probably a good idea to look elsewhere for a physician. Do not ignore your gut instincts.
Managing Your Healthcare: A Three-step Process
- Ask . The importance of asking questions cannot be stressed enough. Ask about your treatment options. Get a description of any recommended medical procedure or test, as well as its risks. Ask for pamphlets or literature. Ask the doctor to speak in terms you understand. Find out where the procedure or test will take place. Are you able to take someone with you into the treatment area? Do not be shy. It is your health at stake.
- Clarify . If you do not understand the treatment recommendation(s), ask for clarification. Get a second opinion. Get a third opinion if you are still wary. Talk to friends who have had similar medical problems. If you think of additional questions after your visit, call the doctor. Leave a message with his assistant or a nurse. Some practices now offer you the option to email your questions or leave questions in voicemail.
- Evaluate . Do your homework. Utilize the library, Internet, and other medical sources to do some research. Books and magazines are incredibly useful tools when researching medical conditions and treatments.
Dr. Warren Slack explores the value of using the Internet for healthcare information in his book, Cybermedicine: How Computing Empowers Doctors and Patients for Better Healthcare. While the Internet is not an infallible source of medical information, information culled from the Internet does provide a basis for patient and doctor to initiate a dialogue.
Do not Settle
Take the time to find a doctor that will meet your healthcare needs. Remember to ask questions about any diagnosis, treatment or medical procedure. If you knew all the answers, you would not need the doctor!

No problem, I found it kind of funny that you asked.
Any way the game is great, it's around 4 hours long and people constantly praise it for the story and music. The actual gameplay is pretty casual though, but nobody really plays it for the gameplay.

Clubs in Pasadena
Recommended Clubs by Groupon Customers
The PG-rated program is led by a talented team of in-house improv experts in the vein of Drew Carey's popular Whose Line Is It Anyway? show on the ABC Family Channel. As a member of the audience, you'll not only create the show (skits are created on the spot from audience suggestions), you might be in the show, too. Each week, the guffawing gurus invite members of the peanut gallery on stage to act out scenes and test their improv skills.
Laughter and lovable fur companions are undeniable life joys. Score a twofer with today's Groupon, offering a $20 ticket to Canines and Cats Comedy Hour on January 27 at 6:30 p.m. at the Houston Improv Comedy Club and Dinner Theatre (presale tickets are available for $25 until 1/24, after that the tickets are available for $40). The laughfest doubles as a fundraiser for Houston's homeless pets, benefiting HOPE, HPPL, and SNAP. There's a full bar and dinner served at the show for maximum laughter enjoyment. The club also has a two-drink minimum and a mandatory 18% gratuity on your meal.
At ComedySportz, the spontaneity of improv humor marries the competitiveness of athletics in three weekly shows that churn out laughs for roughly 100 minutes each. During a match, two opposing teams of comics square off as a referee presides. The teams launch into sketches and routines fueled by audience suggestions, much like on the TV shows Whose Line Is It Anyway? and World News with Diane Sawyer. Since random, casual outbursts are so integral to the show, no two performances are the same, and many fans check the lineup to see when their favorite funnypeople take the stage next.
The soothing sounds of the saxophone and the call of the trumpet fill the air inside the Red Cat Jazz Café. Several nights a week, artists such as Brian Best and Dean James play on the café's stage, which also hosts boisterous events including the Sunday Jazz Brunch. Open-mic nights let lesser-known acts make a splash, and happy hours and special events encourage artistic expression through words, mixed drinks, and opportunities to complain about coworkers in song.
At the Hollywood Improv, comics lure laughs from deep within bellies as they follow in the footsteps of standup legends such as Ellen DeGeneres, Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld, and Dave Chappelle, all of whom have graced the Improv club stages. The club's calendar schedules comedians as often as seven nights a week, alternating between big-name headliners and up-and-coming funsters who tickle funny bones with fresh material, abundant energy, and feathered reflex hammers.

What I initially found most attractive at King's College London was its central location. As my experience as a student went on, it was the staff's availability and open-mindedness that I found most pleasant. Beyond KCL's great reputation, the Institute of Gerontology is among the most highly-regarded research centres on ageing in Europe known both for its innovative research and track record.
King's is a place where unconventional ideas are welcome and where personal projects are supported. I was given the chance to discuss a partnership with a private company for a PhD. King's gave me the necessary time and advice for this project to be successfully initiated.
I am now on my way to completing my first year as a part-time PhD candidate. I spend my days between the Strand Campus for classes or meetings and Camden Town, where the company I work for (Amaris) is located.
King's has provided me with the ideal environment to reach my highest goals.

Lore:Gods S
[edit] Sai, God of Luck
Sai is the God of Luck. Those familiar with him call him by his nickname, Lucky. He was born a mortal and had the talent to spread luck to others, but not to himself. He became a soldier, but he was killed in his first battle just as it was won. Ebonarm appeared to him, and offered him immortality if he agreed to spread his luck around. He said the gods were overworked seeing to events, and thought that Sai's inborn talent would balance things out. He readily agreed, and he was told that he could keep his body for a time before it began to fade.
He became a wanderer and tinker by trade, roaming the world with his grey wolf Grellan. It was then that he met an unlucky woman named Josea in Skyrim, whom he married and had a child with - "a beautiful baby girl with silver hair, but eyes of cornflower blue". He brought prosperity to the region, which resulted in the Falmer being driven from Skyrim and the Nords taking over large parts of Morrowind and High Rock.
His visits to Josea became less and less frequent, until one night she eavesdropped on him arguing with several people. These were avatars of Mara, Ebonarm and other minor gods. He was told that he could no longer stay with his family, as the luck he had given to the area was having dire consequences. He was tasked to set things right again, and his body was to be taken from him. He could only visit his wife once a year, and only in spirit. He begged Mara for a body, and she allowed him to take the form of a wolf occasionally.
When the gods had left, Josea confronted him. He told her of his true origins and explained the situation. He kissed their children goodbye and told her that she would feel his presence once a year. It took Sai one hundred and fifty years to set things right, and he needed a lot of help. Nords still hold him in high regard which is why they prefer not to kill wolves unless necessary.
In King Edward, a character known as the Slave of Moraelyn was a descendant of Sai. He revealed to Edward that he feels Sai's presence once a year, and his grandmother used to leave a bit of food and a bowl of milk out on winter nights 'for the Wolf'.
Excessive worship of Sai causes the disease known as Sai's Affliction. Sufferers of the disease have been abandoned by Sai, and long for the god's presence. They are driven to incessant gambling, seeking proof of the god's favor. This usually leaves the victim in poverty or debt.
Reliquaries dedicated to Sai can be found throughout the Iliac Bay region.
[edit] Sanguine
Sanguine is a Daedric Prince whose sphere is hedonistic revelry, debauchery, and passionate indulgences of darker natures. Fittingly, he often appears on the seals and signs of brothels and whorehouses. Sanguine is depicted as a portly man with a dremora-like head with horns, always with a bottle in his hand or a whore under his thumb. He is thought to control thousands of realms, and his enemies are Ebonarm and the Benevolence of Mara. His summoning day is Heart's Day.
The term sanguine can mean either "cheerfully optimistic" or "bloody"; the double meaning is appropriate for a prince whose realm encompasses both the light and dark sides of passion.
[edit] Satakal, The Worldskin, Yokudan God of Everything
Yokudan god of everything. A fusion of the concepts of Anu and Padomay (Satek and Akel), or the habitable universe resulting of their interaction, also called Aurbis or 'The Gray Maybe'. Satakal has much in common with the Nordic Alduin, who destroys one world to begin the next. In Yokudan mythology, Satakal has done (and still does) this many times over, a cycle which prompted the birth of spirits that could survive the transition. These spirits ultimately become the Yokudan pantheon. Popular god of the Alik'r nomads.
[edit] Secunda
Another name for Jone, the little moon god. See also Secunda.
[edit] Sep, The Snake
Yokudan version of Lorkhan. Sep is born when Tall Papa creates someone to help him regulate the spirit trade. Sep, though, is driven crazy by the hunger of Satakal, and he convinces some of the gods to help him make an easier alternative to the Walkabout. This, of course, is the world as we know it, and the spirits who followed Sep become trapped here, to live out their lives as mortals. Sep is punished by Tall Papa for his transgressions, but his hunger lives on as a void in the stars, a 'non-space' that tries to upset mortal entry into the Far Shores.
[edit] Seth
Seth is a dark god worshipped all across Tamriel. The Brotherhood of Seth runs temples in many major cities. Before its destruction, Gideon, a city in Black Marsh known for its evil vibe, was supposedly owned by the followers of Seth. During the Imperial Simulacrum, one of the members of the Brotherhood of Seth in Camlorn, High Rock learned of Jagar Tharn's plot, and stole the brotherhood's map of the entrance to the Crypt of Hearts in a maddened attempt to restore the true Emperor by recovering a piece of the Staff of Chaos hidden there. With the aid of the brotherhood, the Eternal Champion recovered the map from the Mines of Khuras and was directed to the Crypt of Hearts.
[edit] Shagrath, God of Spiders
An obscure god, whose High Priestess once threatened all of Valenwood with an army of spiders.
[edit] Sheogorath, The Mad God
Sheogorath is the Daedric Prince of Madness, whose motives are said to be unknowable. His realm is known as the Shivering Isles, the Madhouse, or the Asylums. The Golden Saints, or Aureals, and Dark Seducers, or Mazken, are his servants. For more information, see the Lore article.
[edit] Sheor, Bad Man
In Bretony, the Bad Man is the source of all strife. He seems to have started as the god of crop failure, but most modern theologians agree that he is a demonized version of the Nordic Shor, born during the dark years after the fall of Saarthal.
[edit] Shezarr, God of Man
Cyrodilic version of Lorkhan whose importance suffered when Akatosh came to the fore of Nibenay religion. Shezarr was the spirit behind all human undertaking, especially against Aldmeri aggression. He is sometimes associated with the founding of the first Cyrodilic battlemages. In the present age of racial tolerance, Shezarr is all but forgotten. In 1E 266 the lost Shezarr, the missing sibling god of the Eight Divines, arrived at the White Gold Tower in the Imperial City and transformed the dying Alessia into the first of the Cyrodilic saints becoming the first gem in the Cyrodilic Amulet of Kings. He is admittedly a thinly-disguised, watered-down version of Shor.
[edit] Shor, God of the Underworld
The Nordic version of Lorkhan, Shor took sides with Men after the creation of the world. Foreign gods (i.e., Elven ones) conspired against him to bring about his defeat, dooming him to the underworld. Atmoran myths depict him as a bloodthirsty warrior king who leads the Nords to victory over their Aldmeri oppressors time and again. Before his doom, Shor was the chief of the gods. Sometimes also called Children's God (see Orkey). Shor can be found at Sovngarde, the utopian Hall of Valor open in the afterlife to all Nords who prove their mettle or die valiantly in battle.
[edit] Sithis
This article is about the god. For the book, see Sithis (book).
Sithis (or Padomay) is a representation of the one primordial state of chaos. It is also the patron of the Dark Brotherhood, in which it is given a male persona and said to be the Husband of the Night Mother. Sithis is described as an equal but opposing force to Anuiel. Though the Dark Brotherhood often anthropomorphizes Sithis as a 'Father', they acknowledge he is not a Daedra or Aedra, and does not dwell in any plane of Oblivion. Sithis has a place in most all of the creation 'myths' of Tamriel, under many different names. In the Redguard tradition it is referred to as 'Akel', an endless hunger that drives Satak (Anuiel), The First Serpent, to devour itself endlessly. When the First Serpent finally eats its own heart, it dies, but is reborn as Satakal (Aurbis, The Gray Maybe); a new Snake,in which 'things'(Aedra and Daedra) could come to know themselves. Though the renditions differ as to whether Sithis or Anuiel came into being first, most all suggest that though Anuiel was largely responsible for bringing the Aedra into lasting existence, Sithis is responsible for Lorkhan coming into being, and thus all of mortal creation. Some lore also suggests the Daedra are 'of Sithis' blood', which is supported by their roles as bringers of change.
For more information, see the main article.
[edit] Sotha Sil, Mystery of Morrowind
Sotha Sil, or Seht, wizard-mystic god of the Dunmer, is the least known of the divine Tribunal. He is said to be reshaping the world from his hidden Clockwork City. Once the last survivor of a minor Dunmer House, Sotha Sil became a great wizard in life and later discovered how to use Kagrenac's Tools on the Heart of Lorkhan to steal its divine powers and become a god.
For more information, see Sotha Sil.
[edit] Stendarr, God of Mercy
God of the Eight Divines/Nine Divines, Stendarr has evolved from his Nordic origins into a deity of compassion or, sometimes, righteous rule by might and merciful forbearance. Stendarr is the inspiration of magistrates and rulers, and the patron of the Imperial Legion. He is said to have accompanied Tiber Septim in his later years. In early Altmeri legends, Stendarr is the apologist of Men. Stendarr created the Gauntlets of the Crusader for Pelinal Whitestrake, to help him defeat Umaril the Unfeathered. He also created Stendarr's Hammer.
After the Oblivion Crisis, an order of holy warriors was founded. The Vigilants of Stendarr are dedicated to eliminating Daedra and any other "abominations" (such as vampires, werewolves and witches), whom they fight in the name of the divine.
[edit] Stuhn, God of Ransom
Nordic precursor to Stendarr, brother of Tsun. Shield-thane of Shor, Stuhn was a warrior god that fought against the Aldmeri pantheon. He showed Men how to take, and the benefits of taking, prisoners of war.
[edit] Syrabane, Warlock's God
An Aldmeri god-ancestor of magic, Syrabane aided Bendu Olo in the Fall of the Sload. Through judicious use of his magical ring, Syrabane saved many from the scourge of the Thrassian Plague. He is also called the Apprentices' God, for he is a favorite of the younger members of the Mages Guild. A grand statue of him stands on a costal cliff of Artaeum, which he allegedly posed for in-person.

Hi Everyone,
I just joined this website... seemed like a usefull and helpfull site. Quick history on me... A few years back my life kind of fell apart. A lot of stuff happened in my personal life, mean-while I was trying not to fail out of a Doctorate program. Between the stress of my personal life and the stress of school and some other stuff that was going on I managed to gain a lot of weight... and more weight ... and more... I am now 75lbs heavier than I was 2-3 years ago and I hate it. I am so self conscious! I have always loved being physically active and doing things outdoors but now I don't have the confidence or am I in shape enough to do anything. I hate it. I use to be a personal trainer so I know what I need to eat and what I need to do but i just can't seem to get motivated to stick to anything.... Instead I end up eating things I shouldn't or out drinking with friend! I want my old body back. Please, has anyone been through this also that may have advice...

Lake Titicaca Lago Titicaca
At an elevation of 3820 m / 12,338 ft, Lake Titicaca (Lago Titicaca) is the highest navigable lake in the world. Stretching 170 km by 60 km across the Peruvian and Bolivian borders, this is also the largest lake in South America.The lake is steeped in legend and has been inhabited throughout the centuries by ancient cultures. Today Lake Titicaca supports a unique way of life in the Andes, not seen in other areas of Peru.
The Islas Flotantes, the famous Floating Islands, are one of the main attractions of Lake Titicaca. This traditional way of life has been in existence here for centuries. Although farming is the traditional livelihood throughout the Andes in Peru, Lake Titicaca adds a unique element, harvesting reeds from the lake. Boats overflowing with reeds can bee seen pulling up on the beaches and unloading their goods onto the backs of burrows who carry the reeds up to the hillside farms.The main city on the Peruvian side of Lake Titicaca is Puno, which is a good place to arrange tours and activities. However, to fully appreciate this beautiful blue lake surrounded by rolling hills and mountains, it is necessary to get out onto the lake. In the small communities on the islands or along the shores of the mainland is where visitors will find clear water and sand beaches.
Related Attractions
Llachon, Peru
Across the Bay of Puno from the city of Puno, is the little village of Llachon, on the Peninsula of Capachica. This area receives very few tourists and is not promoted at all. Llachon is a great place to see the traditional way of life of Peruvians living around Lake Titicaca, without all the tourists and tourist hype.Villagers in Llachon and along the Peninsula of Capachica harvest reeds from the lake in their wooden boats, and transport them up to their hillside farms on the backs of burrows. Going for a walk along the pathways that connect the towns and homes allows a glimpse of the whole process in action as you pass burrows carrying their loads and children herding sheep from one pasture to the next. Crops are planted along the hillside and in some area right through the sand beach to the edge of Lake Titicaca.There are no hotels or restaurants in Llachon or the surrounding area. Visitors here must stay with families, usually in a small outer building, and they will cook meals for their guests.Llachon can either be reached by boat or via car down a dirt road which takes about 2½ hours. Trips can be booked through some travel agencies in Puno, although it is not always easy to arrange. Titikayak offers kayaking trips in the Llachon area and will arrange accommodation in the area as well.
Urose Floating Islands
The main attractions on Lake Titicaca are the Islas Flotantes (Uros Floating Islands), often referred to as, The Floating Islands. These islands are manmade creations, built with totora reeds which are harvested from the shallow areas of Lake Titicaca. The Islas Flotantes are home to Uros Indians, as they have been since the time of the Incas. Unfortunately, today the inhabitants rely mainly on tourism to survive.There are 45 floating islands which are anchored in the Bay of Puno, with varying numbers of people living on each island. Tours to the islands bring visitors to only two of these islands and it is a staged event designed specifically for tourism. It is hard to imagine that there is anything traditional about what is seen during these highly commercialized boat trips to the islands.Trips to Islas Flotantes, which take about a half day can be arranged in Puno very easily through any travel agency, some of which work in conjunction with local hotels. You can also hire a boat from the docks. Islas Flotantes can also be visited as part of day trips which go to Isla Taquile and Isla Amantani.
Amantani Island
Isla Amantani is about a 4.5 hour boat ride from Puno and 2 hours from Tequile. Visiting Amantani from Puno usually involves spending the night and staying with a local family on the island. There are a couple companies which offer high speed boat service with day trips to the island, but this seems to be dependant upon demand for such trips.The island is home to about 800 families, mostly farmers and fisherman who go about their traditional ways. Due to its distance from Puno, Amantani sees less visitors than the other islands. Consequently it has a more remote, rustic feel about it, and it is less influenced by tourism. Nonetheless, they are used to hosting foreigners and there is still a staged evening event for tourists but it is generally a small scale family oriented affair. Visitors to the island can spend the day hiking and sightseeing around the island.Tours to Isla Amantani can be easily arranged through local travel agencies in Puno.
Juliaca, Peru
Juliaca, just under an hours drive from Puno, is an industrial city with very little character. The city likes to boast about its progress and prosperity, primarily due to the cement factory, but it is not much of a tourist destination.The main reason visitors stop in Juliaca is for the airport, the bus connections, and the train station. The Juliaca airport is the closest major airport to Puno and Lake Titicaca, with service to Lima and other major destinations around Peru. The train between Cusco and Puno makes a stop in Juliaca. People sometimes get off here to catch a bus or arrange a taxi to Llachon.There are lots of hotels and restaurants in Juliaca. This can be a good place to spend the night for travelers catching an early flight in the morning. Of interest in Juliaca is the Sunday Market and the Plaza Bolognesi, next to the train station.
Taquile Island
Taquile Island (Isla Taquile) is a natural island about four hours by boat from Puno. Unlike Las Islas Flotantes, Isla Taquile is not so reliant on tourism and has a much more authentic feel. The islanders are living in a traditional manner, with no electricity or vehicles.Taquile has been inhabited for 10,000 years and has a real sense of history about it. Inca stone terracing and ruins are scattered around the island. There are beautiful views all over the island out over the incredibly blue lake and sky. The island is quite small, measuring 6 km / 3.75mi long and 1 km / .6 mi wide, and is a great place for walking.Visitors can see the island as part of a day trip or choose to stay over night, which involves a home stay with a local family. These tours can be easily arranged through a travel agency in Puno.
Highlights: |
Suasi Island
Near the north shore of Lake Titicaca is Isla Suasi. This island is the perfect place to get away from it all. Except for one hotel, this 5 acre island is uninhabited.The hotel was built in the late 1990s and designed to blend in, as well as possible, with the surroundings. It is made of stone and thatch, and runs on solar power. Also on Islas Suasi is a garden with native vegetables and herbs, llamas, rowboats, and a sauna.This is one of the few island options on the Peruvian side of Lake Titicaca that doesn't require a home stay with a local family. Reservations are a must and can be arranged through travel agencies in Puno.

8 Questions from the Community
Can this Kohler model be used on a Moen shower arm with 1/2 inch connection?
Can this showerhead be used with the Kohler K-T396 faucet? Would a pressure balancing valve be required for a shower only installation and if so what valve would I need?
A. Yes, you can use this shower head with the K-T396 faucet. I would recommend ordering the parts seperately, so that you don't end up with two shower heads. The model number for the Devonshire valve trim by itself is K-T397-4 and you would also need the K-304-K valve.
Will a 1/2 inch connection fit a standard arm?
K-10590 showerhead GPM flow?
Does this shower head swivel to adjust angle?
Will this survive the elements as an outdoor shower head?
I would like to purchase this shower head but I want the accompanying handheld shower head that comes on a sliding bar. Do you have the two together?
Will this also work with the K-7395, the 5 3/8" arm?

PEMBROKE — Businesses located at COMtech may have to begin paying an administrative fee to help the industrial park continue the level of services park tenants are now receiving.
The administrative fee may have to be charged if the county Board of Commissioners does not maintain the current level of county funding for the park in its fiscal 2012-13 budget, according to Ken Windley, COMtech's executive director. His request for $196,000 in county money was included in the county budget proposed by interim County Manager Ricky Harris, but at a budget work session late last month, $100,000 was cut at the request of Commissioner Raymond Cummings.
Windley, a former Robeson County manger and COMtech's executive director since January 2011, said that he does not know why the commissioners are considering cutting COMtech's budget by about 51 percent.
"This is not a situation we cannot overcome, but businesses will have to help pick up the cost of providing services," Windley said. "We haven't had to charge an administrative fee up to this point.
"I'm concerned that businesses will have to pay more in the type of economy that now exists," Windley said. "But I also understand that because of difficult economic times the commissioners have to look at all of the options and make cuts to save the county money."
COMtech's request for $196,000 is the same amount of county money that the park has had to operate during the current fiscal year.
"Initially we gave them $132,000," Harris said. "We then later gave them additional money that brought the total up to $196,000."
According to Windley, COMtech's board of directors discussed the possibility of charging an administrative fee for services about a year ago. That issue will have to be revisited by the board, Windley said.
COMtech, located just outside of Pembroke on N.C. 711, began operating in January 2001. The park, consisting of more than 700 acres, is designed to provide homes to technology-focused businesses, industry, educational training facilities and business incubators.
Tenants are offered numerous services, including 24-hour security, window washing, grass cutting, parking lot cleaning and trash pickup.
Windley said COMtech currently has 25 tenants. The new administrative fee for services, if implemented, would depend on the size of the business, he said.
"It (fee) would be about $1,000 for the smaller businesses, with larger businesses — such as RCC and UNCP — paying significantly more," Windley said.
Cummings said Wednesday that he made the recommendation that the $100,000 be cut from COMtech's budget as a possible way of "tightening up" the county's budget.
"Economic times are still hard," he said. "This is just a suggestion to balance the budget. We have to trim where we can trim."
Cummings said his recommendation would at least "force" the interim county manager and COMtech staff to sit down and take a close look at the park's finances and management.
"We're trying to make sure it's operating efficiently," he said.

Many Lancashire pensioners are resorting to wearing coats indoors in response to price rises from energy suppliers, reports Lancashire Evening Post.
The number of people living in fuel poverty - or having to put more than ten per cent of their annual income towards fuel bills - is thought to have risen sharply as a result of price rises from energy suppliers over the past few months, and pensioners are thought to account for many of them. According to the paper, 190,000 people in the north-west are currently suffering from fuel poverty.
Bill Hodges, of the South Ribble Pensioners' Association, told the paper: "I know people who are living their days in the cold with jumpers and coats on inside and then putting the heaters on for a couple of hours during the night."
Mr Hodges added that many elderly people were unwilling to ask for help from charities and so frequently did not tell anybody that they were suffering from a lack of cheap energy.
The government said that £20 billion has been spent addressing fuel poverty over the last eight years.

Anyone who's watched TV news in California knows the drill: the fleeing car, the police cruisers in pursuit, the TV choppers overhead.
And everyone who's watched such a chase end with suspects in handcuffs, sometimes after crashing their car, has probably had the thought: That's so stupid. They always get caught.
Close, but not quite.
In a week that began with three televised chases in Los Angeles, one fleeing suspect showed it's possible to get away. On Monday evening, a man led police on a 50-mile pursuit through San Bernardino and Los Angeles counties before ditching a car in Pacoima and escaping into the neighborhood, in full view of TV news choppers.
Of 195 drivers pursued last year by L.A. County sheriff's deputies, slightly more than 75 percent were arrested - which suggests close to a quarter got away.
But nationally, about 98 percent of chases involving police helicopters end with arrests and without crashes, said Geoffrey Alpert, a University of South Carolina criminology professor who has studied police pursuit.
It might not be evident after those three dramatic chases in three days, including one that ended in a shootout near downtown L.A. Tuesday night, but police here and around the country have tightened policies to limit chases.
In California, pursuits by all police forces declined by 14 percent between 2002 and 2011, according to the Highway Patrol, which compiles statewide numbers.
On Thursday, a jury convicted a Panorama City man of second-degree murder and evading police in a 2010 chase that ended in a fatal crash. Six-year-old Kayla Woods was killed as she played in her neighborhood, Lake View Terrace.
In 2002, a year when Los Angeles police chased more than 600 suspects, a 3-week-old boy lost his left arm after a car being chased by LAPD officers ran a red light and hit his family's SUV in Sylmar.
That pursuit might happen even under the current policy, since the officers were chasing a man believed to have stabbed someone moments earlier.
But injuries such as that led the LAPD to overhaul its policy in 2003.
In the department's official manual, officers are directed not to pursue people who fail to stop for a simple traffic infraction. But they can pursue those who appear to be driving under the influence, as well as those suspected of felonies or misdemeanors.
The rule directs officers to consider 10 factors, including road conditions, weather and whether there is "unreasonable risk" to the public, to officers or to people in the fleeing car.
"Every pursuit has a risk, and you've just got to balance the risk by the benefit," Alpert said.
He added that Tuesday's LAPD pursuit of a carjacking suspect and Wednesday's chase by the Sheriff's Department of suspects in a Santa Clarita bank robbery appeared reasonable.
The Sheriff's Department allows pursuits of people suspected of serious felonies, including major drug and violent crimes, but not for most misdemeanors or for people believed to have small amounts of drugs.
"The immediate apprehension of the violator
Alpert started looking into police pursuits in the early 1980s.
"Back then, a lot of departments didn't have policies, and the norm was to chase them till the wheels fell off," he said.
A 1983 California Highway Patrol report, Alpert said, recommended officers keep chasing until suspects' cars stopped or crashed.
A few people who run get away, at least temporarily. But it's a high-risk proposition by any measure.
Nearly 30 percent of those who fled from L.A. sheriff's deputies last year crashed, said Deputy Glenn Callaway of the department's Risk Management Bureau. A dozen deputies crashed their cars, too.
The LAPD could not provide statistics on pursuits Thursday despite multiple requests.
Officers are trained in tactical maneuvers and high-speed driving, and they drive customized police vehicles. Fleeing drivers, often panicked and frequently drunk or high, have no such training or equipment.
"They drive over their head," Callaway said.
Most pursuits are short and never make TV. Of 5,508 pursuits last year in California, more than 76 percent were over within five minutes.
In addition to the possibility of a crash or being shot by police if they make an unwise move when they finally stop, drivers who flee risk jail time.
Evading an officer while driving carries a maximum of a year in jail in addition to punishment for any other crimes the person committed.
If the fleeing person shows "willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property," as those in lengthy televised chases almost always do, jail time of at least six months is mandatory.
If someone is injured, the maximum sentence is seven years. And if someone is killed, it's 10 years.
Thursday's conviction in Kayla's death came a day after three bank robbery suspects were arrested following a bizarre pursuit that included them throwing money out their windows and bystanders scrambling for the cash. Police said it was fortunate no one was seriously injured; an LAPD officer had his foot run over by a car but was expected to be fine.
In an even more dramatic chase on Tuesday, officers pursued a man wanted in a carjacking that day and a slaying in July. The suspect, 24-year-old Ian Schlesinger, crashed into another car near downtown, got out and fired at officers with a rifle. They fired back, critically injuring him. No officers were hurt.
Most drivers, especially those familiar with the post-O.J. Simpson era of televised chases in L.A., pull slowly to the curb whenever police lights come on behind them. But the faint hope of getting away, along with sheer panic, may help explain why some people continue to run from the police.
A 19-year-old Winnetka man, Abdul Arian, was shot dead by LAPD officers in April after he ran a red light in Northridge and led them on a pursuit to Woodland Hills.
It's not clear whether that pursuit fell within department guidelines, which bar pursuit for traffic infractions or for reckless driving that begins only when an officer tries to pull someone over.
Police said Arian made 911 calls as he drove saying he had a gun and threatening that officers were "going to get hurt." He then got out of his car on the 101 Freeway, pulled out something that looked like a weapon and repeatedly extended his arms into what police called a "shooting stance." It turned out to be a cellphone.
Unlike some who run from police, Arian was not drunk or on drugs. He did not have a weapon in his car.
"He ran a red light and he panicked," a relative said the day after he died.
Arian's family filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city and police in June, saying officers shot him 120 to 150 times. No trial date has been set.

The Mascot Games – NFC South Edition
Posted: March 5, 2013 Filed under: General Sports, NFL | Tags: atlanta, bay, brees, buccaneers, Bucs, Carolina, drew, falcons, Mystical, new orleans, NFL, NOLA, Panthers, Pirates, saints, tampa, TheDrawPlay.com Leave a comment »The season of free agency and combines are upon us. The constant rosterbation has hit a fever pitch with trades, free agents and draft picks. However, since none of this is based in a shred of reality (maybe some educated guesses), I have decided to come up with the 2013 NFL Mascot games.
The rules are simple, each NFL team must have their own mascot on the field at all times. One is the minimum, the entire team is the maximum. All animals will be trained/trainable, but the bounds of reality of that animal still applies (I.E, a Bear can't be trained to be a perfect read option QB, but would be a beast DE or something to that effect). I will preview each division over the next few weeks, then ultimately pick one team that rises to the top.
With that being said, here is how I would configure each NFL team – where I would put their mascot, and if this ultimately hurts or helps the team.
The second installment, the NFC South.
Atlanta Falcons - Peregrine Falcon - Position: FS
I have always kinda looked at the falcon as the generic Seahawk. Now, I know this isn't true, and there are several species of falcon that are actually way different than an osprey in many ways. However, I don't walk around Discovery Park with a really expensive iPhone app and spotters goggles, so to me – these animals are pretty much the same. However, I did come across this sweet Google image of a Falcon that is white.
But if I were to actually pick a Falcon in an effort to give this team a bump, you got to go Peregrine Falcon. It is the fastest animal on earth, reaching in upwards of 200MPH in dives to catch it's prey. So it only makes sense that the falcon plays defensive back, and honestly – I would treat it like a blitzing safety. Imagine this guy just circling, then on a key 3rd down, dive bombing the QB at 200MPH? Team improvement? Slight improvement over Eugene Robinson, who dive bombs hookers. Or did before anyway.
Carolina Panthers – Panther (the legendary creature) – Position: Defensive Tackle (DT)
This was the animal that I thought for sure would be the most cut and dried, but lead to a rabbit hole of wacky research about Panthers. See, I didn't want to go the lazy route and mail in this synopsis:
"The Panther is a mean-ass cat and makes sense on defense. Put in the pass rush and he will maul quarterbacks."
Now this is true, and while I am tempted to end my analysis there, I learned too much about mythical Panther to ignore it, and obviously the impact on the football field.
I don't want to completely paraphrase Wikipedia (for you Ben) – the mythical Panther has endured centuries in many different cultures as a beast that emits a powerful scent after three days of sleeping. People are enchanted by it and follow the Panther. In different civilizations, the Panther isn't always a Panther – sometimes it is a deer, a bull, whatever – but shares this unique quality. I really suggest reading the Wiki entry, it's fascinating.
So with that being said, it makes sense that the Panther be at defensive tackle. However, the Panther won't have to do much besides emit scent, which will draw in the offense (and probably the defense) into a scrum. Just make sure one of your defenders has an Avian Flu mask on so they can swoop the ball from the entranced player and take it to the house. All games the Panthers play may result in a 7-0 score.
Team improvement? High. Insanely high.
New Orleans Saints – A Quality Marching Fellow – Position: QB
This was another one that could have gone with picking a literal Saint to be on the team. However, I find that to be a little boring, plus I don't think God cares about the outcome of football games, no matter how many post-game interviews would lead you to think otherwise. So with that line of thought, NoLa should thank me for not putting an apathetic deity on their team. I want to make them better!
That's how I found the Quality Marching Fellow, which is a mash-up of British Stereotype and the graphic design genius of David Rappoccio of TheDrawPlay.com.
The monocle suggests intelligence, marching suggests that there is a tireless pursuit of perfection yet moving at the same steady pace, and fellows are a good nickname for those that are on their way to "chaps" – which takes some time. So, we have found a character with the utmost pride in his work, a sterling ethic and intelligence to boot.
Since I couldn't pick player-coaches, I had to go with the field general position for him on the Saints. Drew Brees is getting a little older, has plenty of weapons and isn't that tall. This guy can come in at 6′ 1″ (I made up that height) and starts working with all those weapons immediately. Plus, he is really smart. He can distribute the ball. Now, is he as physically gifted as Brees? Not sure.
Team Improvement: On the field, slight downgrade – in life, high moral upgrade for the city of New Orleans.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers – A Buccaneer (NOT a Pirate) - Position: WR
As hard as this is to believe Buccaneers are actually cooler and just as dangerous as pirates. To go SAT analogy on you, Buccaneers are to mafia bosses as Pirates are to petty street thugs. Both are dangerous, but one has way more style, is way more lethal and probably took your girl home.
Their name originated from a few words over the years, but I will take the wiki excerpt it originated from the fact that they ate Manatee meat. Can you believe that? It's like these guys ate mermaids and robbed from Spanish conquistadors (who had no problem eradicating entire civilizations) so you know they don't have remorse for anything or anyone.
These guys were hired guns by mostly the English to take out Spanish shipping merchants, made tons of cash and also had a B.A. reputation. So where does he fit on the field?
I decided to go with WR here, because jumping from ship to ship, stealing riches and having a gigantic ego just sounded like a wide receiver. He will always want the ball and will make sure to get it when it is thrown his way. You need to be that aggressive with Josh Freeman at quarterback – you don't always quite know where that ball is headed.
Team Improvement? Yes, I mean really – Muscle Hamster needs all the help he can get.
Winner from this division? I think I have to hand it to the Panthers just because of all the intangibles that history brings to the fold. The Panther can literally take over a game with just it's scent. That's amazing, and the Bucs, the Falcons and Saints couldn't resist that. Standings would be Panthers, Bucs, Falcons and then the Saints.

Famous Biography Books For Children
Biographies are not only a great way to introduce young people to important people from history or in modern times but they are also a good way to expose children to historical periods, business, politics, scientific concepts, sports and movements in music and art.
This is a list of some of the best biography books that are good for middle school kids. All these books are inexpensive and cost around $ 6 to $ 7 per book. Amazon sells most of these books. You can also find some of them at used book sales also.
Who Was Series
The great thing about Who was series is that the books can be read by 1st and 2nd graders and up. These books are easy to understand and interesting for younger children. Apart from that, they also give lots of advice. There are many publications in this set. The collection covers a variety of subjects such as Business (Steve Jobs), science (Charles Darwin), art ( Leonardo Da Vinci, Claude Monet), entertainment (The Louis Armstrong, Harry Houdini, Beatles), politics (Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan) and history (Paul Revere, George Washington).
History Maker Bios
This is another great series for first and second graders. The slides have some amazing photographs and lots of photos as opposed to 'Who was' series that mainly uses black and white illustrations. These books are only about 50 pages but they cover some of the very interesting people, like John Deere, Dolly Madison, WK Kellogg, Levi Strauss, and Milton Hershey.
DK Biography Series
This series is most likely for the 4th grade and up. These publications are a good follow-up to the 'Who was' series and History Maker series. This series has biographies of many interesting people like Nelson Mandela, Albert Einstein, Gandhi and Marie Curie. The series also includes illustrations on early presidents of America like Abraham Lincoln and George Washington.
Sterling Biographies
This is another great series for anyone in fifth grade through middle school. The series has publications on Alexander the Great, Chief Joseph, Anne Frank, Davy Crockett, Jacques Cousteau, Jackie Robinson, Lou Gehrig and Cleopatra. The length of each book is about 130 pages.
Childhood of famous Americans
This series has been consistently popular since it was first published in 1940. Many printings of these publications have cemented them in the memories of generations of young American readers. These biographies are quite fictitious, for the most part, but the last few chapters express the character's place in American history. Books in this series introduce young readers to a famous personality in a story format and then highlight the character's own youth in detail. This keeps children interested in great figures of the history. These books are suitable for 3rd graders and up and are great for developing the reading skills in children.
American Adventures
These classic pieces are out-of-print but definitely they are worth hunting down. These books are around 250 pages in length and are written with 2nd grade reading level. These books are divided in sections with various chapters illustrating a personality from history. Enjoy them if you are able to find them!
Opal Wheeler Composer Biographies
Opal Wheeler is back in print. This series introduces children to the life and music of some of the great composers. The author believes that children must know about great musicians from history, though not all of them were noble men. Written for 3rd-4th class readers, Wheeler's biographies are appreciated by young as well as old readers.

Beethoven Biography
Ludwig Van Beethoven's birth was on 16th December 1770 in the Germany's town of Bonn. He was born in a family of seven but it's him and other two boys that survived. His father Johann was a musician and was instrumental in honing Beethoven's musical skills and interest early in his life. At the tender of seven a, Ludwig Van Beethoven proved his musical forte by giving his first public performance at Cologne on March 1778. His father had to convince the audience that the boy was six years old since Beethoven always believed he was younger than his actual age. His first music was published in 1787 at the age of 17 and it's after this accomplishment that Beethoven set out to Vienna for greener pastures. His visit was however cut short upon hearing of his mother's death and had to return to Bonn.
Five years later, Beethoven was on his way back to Vienna, where he took his musical career a notch higher by studying composition and counterpoint in 1792. This is the time when he made efforts to prove that he was as an accomplished composer and pianist. By around 1800, Beethoven was striving really heard to master upper-end classical style. His efforts bore fruit between 1801 and 1802 when he managed to come up with the second symphony. This is often referred to the early period of Ludwig's musical career.
The fact that Beethoven was always in good terms with the town's aristocrats made him to start earning a guaranteed income. The terms were to get better in 1809 when Prince Lobkowitz, Prince Kinsky and Archduke Rudolp promised Ludwig a secured annual income provided he stayed on. By 1813, Beethoven had indisputably revolutionized his classical style to a more distinctive and vibrant style. This is the period within which he wrote several symphonies and a wide array of chamber music. Beethoven managed to write about nine symphonies in his entire musical career.
As Beethoven continued to take his musical career into greater heights, a major setback – one which almost made him end his life prematurely – settled in. His hearing ability started fading away slowly by slowly and this caused immeasurable trauma to Ludwig as it was having a direct bearing on his social life quite considerably. It is not quite clear whether this disorder is what made him not to have a way with women or it was as a result of his childhood experiences. He at one time had a relationship with Antoine Brentano- a lady whom he addressed as the immortal beloved in his letters- who left him only to be married by another man. This was around 1812, period when Beethoven's deafness became worse to a point that he could no longer stage a performance.
Due to his deafness, Beethoven became more concerned with private matters rather than his musical endeavors. He started pursuing his nephew's custody after his brother's demise in 1815. A turbulent relationship ensued between Uncle Beethoven and nephew Karl, to a point that the young man tried committing suicide in 1826. Ill health and poverty characterized Beethoven's late period in his musical career and this is presumably what led to his death in March 26 1817.
