Textbooks are Wrong; Sun Isn't Ordinary
by Team 25763 10-3-99 Guillermo Gonzales, of the University of Washington, who is taking part in the search for extraterrestrial life (SETI), claims, "Unless astronomers narrow down their search to stars as exceptional as the Sun, they are wasting much of their time." One characteristic of our sun is that it is a single star, whereas other stars are part of multiple-star systems. Gonzalez has discovered that the Sun has 50% more heavy elements than other stars its age and type. In addition, it is in the top 10% of massive stars in its neighborhood. The most unusual characteristics of the Sun are its orbit, and it's corotation radius. It has an orbit that is much less elliptical (meaning its orbit is more circular, less oval) than stars similar to it. It is also orbiting at about the same angular speed as the stars in our galaxy (also known as the corotation radius). Gonzalez says that all of these characteristics made it possible for intelligent life to form on Earth. We needed a stable planetary orbit, which does not usually happen around a multiple-star system. Since the Sun is a massive star, it produces heavy elements, which are necessary to form planets like Earth. In addition, a steady light output is a key to life. Ultraviolet Picture of the Sun The circular orbit of the Sun prevents it from diving into the inner Galaxy, into a place where deathly supernovae are commonly found. Since the Sun is near the corotation radius, it prevents the Sun from being exposed to supernovae, which would be common if it wasn't close to the corotation radius. Just because of that one factor (being close to the corotation radius), that rules out 95% of all stars in the Galaxy! Gonzales says, "There are fewer stars suitable for intelligent life than people realize." Some astronomers do disagree with Gonzalez though, says researcher Dan Werthimer of the University of California at Berkeley. He believes that our sun is average, meaning that you don't need a star exactly like our sun for life. ©1999 ThinkQuest Team 25763. All rights reserved.

HAP vs. ETF Alternatives
HAP Description
HAP seeks to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of The RogersTM—Van Eck Hard Assets Producers Index, which was developed in concert with international investor Jim Rogers and is viewed by many as the definitive global benchmark for commodity equities. HAP provides "one-stop shopping" for the global hard assets industry because its underlying index is comprehensive in construction, covering the world's largest and most prominent publicly owned companies engaged in the production and distribution of hard assets and related products and services. The index includes water and renewable energy (solar, wind)—a first among commodity equity indexes—and utilizes consumption-based weights that afford balanced sector exposure. HAP is subject to the risks of investing in the hard assets sector.

Cute villa with a pool and Anna who cares for the place is delightful and cooks a good omelette in the morning. Mopeds for rent real cheap, 10 min moped ride to Balangan Beach which is a nice beach that is close by. Big Super Market 5 mins away too. 20 to 30 mins from from most South Kuta places like Uluwatu Beach which is a must and 25 mins from Kuta city also. All in all a great place stay.
Отдыхали с женой в этом прекрасном месте с 10.11.13 по 20.11.13. ожидания оправдались на 200% Соответствие фото 100%. Это уютное тихое место, для людей желающих отдохнуть от городской суеты! Пляж - на мопеде 5 мин., магазины, кафе, рестораны на мопеде 5 мин.! Каждое утро Вас встречает приветливая Анна, которая готовит вкусный завтрак! Все везде чисто и ухожено! Спасибо БОЛЬШОЕ хозяевам и персоналу за гостеприимство!
Nice little place in a pretty cool spot that's close to the beach (just about a mile to the beach, but walking there might be rough). Charlie/Eddie made getting scooters and drivers when we needed them really easy, and the location was pretty convenient to get to markets/restaurants and other places on the peninsula.
Really loved our stay here at the bungalows... Charlie and Edo are great hosts and they gave us a lot of info when we arrived in Balangan.
Anna's pancakes for breakfast are the best in the world and she is so lovely.
The location is perfect for visiting Bukit peninsula: Ulu Watu, balangan beach, padang padang... And far from Kuta mess.
Charlie and Edo provide you a scooter and you can go around everywhere.
Fede&Debby from Italy
Logeurs très (website hidden)ès bon hébergement. Plages magnifiques à proximité. A recommander.
It's very nice little bunglow at very cheap price. You can drive scooter and reach various beaches very fast. Charlie and Ed are very nice and try their best to help with everything. Thanks Charlie and Ed we had a great time!
Charlie was super helpful and came and found me when I was lost and looking for the place! The villas are lovely, very peaceful and quiet.
Charlieand Eddie are the best. Very friendly and helpful and the other guests were very intersting and from other parts of the world. I recommend their place highly. The place was clean and the breakfasts were great.
Although we didnt manage to book in time, the two guys trusted us and kindly picked us up from the airport. They we're really nice just as the place it's self. You need a moped the get around but even with that we were helped by the hosts. Eduardo and Charlie told us the best beaches to go, joined us for dinner and help in every possible way. We can highly recommend that place if your are looking for something nice, affordable and personnel. We had a fun time and felt very save and comfortable. Thanks for the great time, Clea and Lilly
Carlos and Eduardo (aka Charlie and Eddie) were amazing hosts and helped us have a memorable stay in Balangan! They were really flexible and willing to help us with whatever we needed - drivers, ideas for trips, they even offered to let us use their personal motos for a short ride. Their brand new villa was perfect for my friends and I since we each had the privacy of our own bungalow (with comfy beds and amazing bathrooms), but also the common kitchen and pool area for hanging out. The breakfast every morning and hotel-style room service were also nice touches that made this stay extra comfortable. Carlos and Eduardo also struck a good balance of being available for questions, but also just letting us enjoy the villa and do our own thing.
There isn't much within walking distance of the villa (a few little stores for basic needs and one delicious/random Italian restaurant) so I'd take the hosts up on their offer to prepare a motorbike or other driver for you. Balangan beach is a short drive or about a 30 minute walk and it is beautiful there. Also, very easy to get to some other great beaches like Jimbaran for some tasty seafood or Nusa Dua for some lounging and snorkeling.
All in all, I'd highly recommend a stay at this new villa! If you are looking for a relaxing stay, some surfing or just exploring Bali - this is a great place to start!
Thanks for everything guys. Hope to see you back in Bali again soon!

'Mortified' Liam Hemsworth 'wants to split' from Miley Cyrus
Washington, Sept 7 : Miley Cyrus' fiance Liam Hemsworth has reportedly found her MTV Video Music Awards performance, in which she rubbed up against Robin Thicke and made crude gestures with a giant foam finger, "mortifying" and wants to call off their relationship permanently.
Sources revealed that the 23-year old Australian actor is "just weeks away from calling it off permanently" as "he is over her and wants to make a clean break", Us magazine reported.
Sources added that the couple, who have been dating on and off in recent months, "acted as if they were strangers" even when they reunited on the red carpet last month.
According to reports, though the pair still resides together at Cyrus' home in LA's Toluca Lake, they are more like roommates than lovers as they don't even sleep in the same room.

Restoring 3Gs error, cannot be restored device isn't eligible
Hey so I got the white screen of death after dropping my 3Gs. It is jailbroken 3.1.2 and unlocked. It is also still under applecare so wanted to restore it to take it back for a refurbished one hopefully. I tried clicking the restore button but it says it "cannot be restored device isn't eligible." I've been looking around and found this site http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
all I have to do is hold shift and click and it will restore it to factory settings without the jailbreak and unlock right? Also what is a good firmware to go back to so the apple genius bar person isn't suspicious? Also right now I am not to worried about the jailbreak as I would just like my phone back. But is there anyway to keep it? I have already backed up'd my phone and have all the ECID and whatever files I need. Cheers |

Hi, I'm not a professional with the iphone, but have you tried to restore your iphone on another person's computer using itunes? Because when my cousin used my computer to set up her new itouch, it got really ****ed up, but when we used her computer to set it up (and totally redownloaded itunes) it was ok. Or just try to redownload itunes and see if that helps?

Thanks for the help. Although I heard that you have to unjalibreak on the same computer that you jailbroke on in the first place. Is this true?
Also I just put my phone in recovery mode and am thinking about pressing restore. Anyone else have any opinions of what to do? |

5/7/2013 Update: Another price drop? Yup. This seller really needs to move this truck. The price is now $5500. Click here to email the seller directly if you are interested.
4/29/2013 Update: This Studebaker Truck remains available and the seller has lowered the price to $6200.
From 4/24/2013:
This 1962 Studebaker Champ pick-up has been an Arizona truck all its life according to the seller. It is a 1/2-ton short bed with the 259 V8 option and the Deluxe trim package, which is an unusual combo. Most of the Studebaker Champ trucks were stripped 6-cylinders with long beds, as most were work trucks. The Deluxe trim package gave it chrome bumpers, stainless steel trim around the fenders, stainless headlight bezels, a chrome grill, a radio and a clock. All those components are intact, and the seller says it is a good driver and rust free apart from the bottom of the tailgate. It is available in Phoenix, Arizona for $7900.
The seller purchased it from the second owner's family two years ago.The short bed is interesting as Dodge actually made the beds for Studebaker with the tailgate having the raised "Studebaker" name. The original Arizona License plate from 1962 that goes with it. The seller says that the body and frame are rust free, but the tailgate has some rust in the lower mid-section from poor design where water would collect and not be able to drain. It wears an older repaint, likely lacquer, and in very average condition, but looks ok after it is buffed and waxed. The truck is rolling on Chevy rally rims and trim rings with the Studebaker logo on the center caps, with decent tires.
All the glass is in good condition and all the lights work. The rare dash components, including the original Deluxe items, are all intact. The sale includes the original NOS door panels as well as a carpet kit, and the seat appears to be the original and is not torn, but it could use updating. The odometer shows 68,XXX miles, and the seller says that feels right for the condition of the truck, but he can't say for sure whether it has ever rolled over.
The truck runs very well according to the seller, who says the Studebaker 259 V8 engine is strong and starts on first turn of the key. He says the 4-speed on the floor shifts thru the gears just fine, and that the first gear is a granny gear. It has no power brakes or steering, so it drives like a truck not a President or Hawk.

EVANSVILLE — All power was restored by 12:30 p.m., according to Vectren Corp. officials.
Vectren said that a late-morning traffic accident is responsible for a current power outage that is affecting more than 400 customers.
The crash happened just after 11 a.m. when a sport-utility vehicle struck a power pole at the intersection of Evans and Columbia streets.
According to an emergency dispatcher, police officers in the area have also reported that the outage has affected stop lights at the Virgina and Garvin streets intersection and at Garvin and Columbia streets.
The dispatcher said that at least one injury was reported in the crash, but she was unaware of the severity of the injury.
Vectren officials posted on the company's Twitter account and said they hoped to have power restored by 12:30 p.m.

a Chef's Journey
...to your home!
Welcome to... a Chef's Journey
a Chef's Journey is a journey into cooking, writing and sharing
my cookbooks and recipes with the world.
you can contact me: firstname.lastname@example.com
In time for Christmas! All my books are available on a couple of websites that
allow me to send them to you directly ~ which means I can sign them for you.
www.amazon.com still carries my books, also.
And, Roy's beautiful wood products are available through www.etsy.com also.
Also, here's some exciting news:
for information, please go to:
Many, many fun things (plus my books) can be purchased through an online auction platform to benefit culinary students in need of assistance. Chefs4Students
has awarded over $88,000 in grants over the past 8 years.
Why not join us in helping more deserving students join our wonderful world of food!!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
We have lots of news for everyone ~ been really busy the last few months.
My new book, "I Have LEFTOVERS...What Do I Do Now," is available now. See above for
ordering this wonderful new book and any of my other cookbooks.
It's full of ideas and recipes to make your leftovers shine!
* * * * * * * * *
Hear an interview between the chef and Nadia Giordana
The new cookbook is ready to meet the world
Black Beans & Corn
Why a book about Black Beans and Corn? I have no idea, except that this is a combination of ingredients I have always been drawn to. The book is divided into four sections; recipes using Black Beans, then recipes using Corn and lastly recipes using Black Beans and Corn together in dishes.
In the fourth, and last, section of the book I have added "The Pantry" for your convenience. As you look through the recipes in each section, you will find within the ingredient lists, a reference, "(see The Pantry)," which will give you instructions for making or preparing a called for part of the recipe. For example: "1 cup prepared salsa (see The Pantry)" tells you there is a recipe to make your own salsa in the Pantry section of the book. (In fact, there are 8 salsa recipes!)
All these recipes for $14.95
I hope you will have as much fun with the dishes in thebook as I had developing them.
to order
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The first book, Share a Recipe, came into being because of friends asking
me how to fix healthy, satisfying, and inexpensive dinners
as I had for my large family.
From those requests came ideas from friends, neighbors, and fellow chefs
from all over the world which I compiled into a cookbook to be shared by all
and benefit a very special group ~ future chefs. All the proceeds of this book
go to Chef Scholarships - anyone actively enrolled in a Culinary Institution
is eligible for a scholarship.
My next cookbook is a different journey ~ it's a chef's journey home and
the title of this book is, coincidentally, titled:
a Chef's Journey...Home
And this book is now out and ready for you!
It was truly a work of love; remembering the women who
cooked these recipe while we were growing up and for
the friends who are sharing their favorties also. I hope
some of the recipes will become your family favorites also.
The next journey I have embarked on is different
from the first two books in that all the recipes are
brand new and we're back in the 21st Century of
Pizza, Pizza, Pizza!!
I love my newest book which is chocked full of information on methods of cooking pizza at home, plus 10 different pizza dough recipes.
There are also many ideas for saucing and topping your pizzas
and a section for specialty pizzas, including dessert pizzas.
And, the best part is, we still love pizza ~ we aren't tired
of it yet. Which is a good thing, because I think there will
be a Pizza! Pizza! Pizza! Part II book soon.
This little book will make a great stocking
stuffer and it's only $9.95
If you love pizza, you will love this book.
C. Jean Denham, CC ~ a Chef's Journey, Owner/Chef
Many of my friends, fellow chefs and food lovers, are traveling back in time to remember the foods they loved growing up also. $19.95

"convenient to everything"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 4, 2013
the euskera tram , which arciculates with just about everything in the city, stops about 80 meters from the hotel. it can be had from the airport, bus, train, or metro stations. hotel is within walking distance of the old town. if/when i'd ever return to bilbao, and the hotel is still in place, i'd seriously consider re-booking it.
"Good location, good value, no frills"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 28, 2013
Centrally located in the old town (Casco Viejo) - provides clean and quiet rooms, at a good price. Rooms and hallways are decorated sparsely. Staff is friendly.

"Very convenient to all sites; moderate walk"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Dec 3, 2012
Fabulous location; on-site parking; easy walking distance to first-class restaurants; nice walk along the river one direction to the Guggenheim and the other to the old town. Professional staff; excellently maintained rooms. I would stay there again, if I were to return to Bilbao.
"What's in a name?"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Nov 12, 2012
As noted in other reviews = I was very careful with the name of this hotel with the cab driver ... emphasizing Lopez de Haro -- and I still was first taken to "Hotel Ercilla." It seems there are a number of hotels in the "Ercilla" family of hotels -- but only the main Hotel Ercilla uses the name "Ercilla." A great hotel -- I just wish they would NOT list themselves as "Hotel Ercilla Lopez de Haro" but rather JUST "Hotel Lopez de Haro."
"Too hot the room"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Oct 27, 2012
Unpleasantly hot, no air conditioning, and the hotel was unable to manage the changing outside temperatures. Location excellent.
"Near the Guggenheim"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Sep 27, 2012
Convenient location for Guggenheim in a pretty commercial section. Also near Casco Viejo. The hair dryers were broken in both our rooms. Staff did not offer any discount though they seem to welcomed our feedback though looked not too surprised about it.

"Excellent+++"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Sep 19, 2012
Great hotel for the money. People where very nice and helpfully. 15 min walk to Guggenheim and close to the city train ride. 10 min from the Casio video - old city. Would come back again and I do recommend it
"Great location"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Aug 19, 2012
The hotel is located in a great area, close to good food and most attractions. The rooms was comfortable but could use a little updating. They charge for any printing which is unfortunate.

Pit bulls rescued in North Carolina
Sep 29, 2011
After rescuing dozens of pit bulls from two suspected dog fighting rings in North Carolina, Hello Bully, an American pit bull rescue and rehabilitation organization, took 14 in and rehabilitated them. They are now ready for adoption, Cranberry Patch reports.
Workers from Hello Bully and the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) found the dogs chained in dirt yards with only oil barrels as their shelter.
"All they could do was walk in small circles," one volunteer from the Animal Rescue League of Western Pennsylvania, Mary Kennedy Withrow, told the news source. "Some of the dogs had torn ears. Many had scars. Their situation was truly heartbreaking."
The mission of the rescue, which was led by Hello Bully president Daisy Balawejder, was to seize the fighting-ring dogs and rehabilitate them to become family pets. They were taken to a temporary shelter and tested for temperament before beginning an enrichment program that included massages, toys and scheduled downtime - all things that promote the dogs' socialization and relieve stress.
So far, six of the 14 have been adopted, the news source reports. Because of their use in dog fighting, pit bulls are the most abused breed of dog, according to the HSUS.

Institutional Comparative Statics
Why was the Black Death followed by the decline of serfdom in Western Europe but its' intensification in Eastern Europe? What explains why involvement in Atlantic trade in the Early Modern period was positively correlated with economic growth in Britain but negatively correlated in Spain? Why did frontier expansion in the 19th Century Americas go along with economic growth in the United States and economic decline in Latin America? Why do natural resource booms seem to stimulate growth in some countries, but lead to a 'curse' in others, and why does foreign aid sometimes seem to encourage, other times impede economic growth? In this paper we argue that the response of economies to shocks or innovations in economic opportunities depends on the nature of institutions. When institutions are strong, new opportunities or windfalls can have positive effects. But when institutions are weak they can have negative effects. We present a simple model to illustrate how comparative statics are conditional on the nature of institutions and show how this perspective helps to unify a large number of historical episodes and empirical studies.Download Info

Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Smooth, rich and silky, this handcrafted wine finds its center around a deep core of blackcurrant, black cherry and raspberry fruit. Spice, cedar and earth notes add complexity, but it's the generous fruit and supple texture that anchor the mid-palate. Aiming for elegance over brawn, this voluptuous wine finishes with ripe tannins and a luxurious aftertaste that keeps on going. Overall, the 2004 Reserve Alexandre is a quintessential example of Alexander Valley terroir and of the region's supreme suitability for nurturing Bordeaux varieties.
First produced in 1983, Geyer Peak Reserve Alexandre is a traditional blend of five classic Bordeaux red grape varietals. Each year, winemaker Mick Schroeter relies on traditional, small-lot fermentation, rigorous selection and extensive trial blending to achieve a consistently stylish, elegantly balanced wine.
Blend: 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 19% Malbec, 4% Petit Verdot, 1% Cabernet Franc
"The fruit is immediately present in this wine, though the firm tannins show more of the fruit skin than the juicier fresh cherry and blueberry flavors that come with air. Decant it and this elegant, balanced red is ready for lamb chops. Its length of flavor implies more complexity will develop with age." 91 Points Wine & Spirits

The "Sabbath School" is a place where Bible students gather to study the Word of God. Having spent each day in study, they gather each Sabbath to study together and benefit from discussing what they have learned thoughout the week. These students are joined by hundreds of similar groups around the world who gather together to study that same topic. The SDARM General Conference Sabbath School Department works to coordinate the Sabbath school work in over 125 countries around the world. Quarterly lesson materials are prepared by this department and then translated and distributed to students around the world. These lessons, called Sabbath Bible Lessons, are a daily study program that are based solely on the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy without additional comments. The lessons have been published in several languages without interruption since 1922. Lesson material is also provided for youth, junior and childrens divisions. The Lord is preparing a people that will stand firm to the truth (Revelation 14:12), and the Sabbath School seeks to aid in this work of preparation. This special work fulfills both aspects of the Gospel Commission (Matthew 28:19, 20): teach the Word of God (the Bible) and be a public witness to all nations. If you would like to study the Word of God with other sincere Christians around the world, click on the lesson icon to the right of this message to see which topic we are studying this quarter. "The Sabbath school work is important, and all who are interested in the truth should endeavor to make it prosperous" (Testimonies on Sabbath School Work, p. 9). |

Ygnacio Palomares Adobe
Ygnacio Palomares Adobe
Ygnacio Palomares Adobe, August 2008
Location | 491 East Arrow Highway, Pomona, California |
Built | 1855 |
Architectural style | Mexican adobe |
Governing body | Historical Society of Pomona Valley |
NRHP Reference # | 71000157[1] |
Added to NRHP | March 3, 1971 |
Coordinates: 34°05′26″N 117°44′35″W / 34.0904674°N 117.74297029°W
The Ygnacio Palomares Adobe, also known as Adobe de Palomares, is a one-story adobe in Pomona, California, built between 1850 and 1855 as a residence for Don Ygnacio Palomares. The adobe was abandoned in the 1880s and was left to the elements until it was acquired by the City of Pomona in the 1930s. In 1939, the adobe was restored in a joint project of the City of Pomona, the Historical Society of Pomona Valley and the Works Project Administration. Since 1940, the adobe has been open to the public as a museum on life in the Spanish and Mexican ranchos. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971. Of the more than 400 sites in Los Angeles County that have been listed on the National Register, fewer than ten received the distinction prior to the Ygnacio Palomares Adobe.
History and architectue[edit]
Rancho San Jose[edit]
The Ygancio Palomares Adobe, built between 1850 and 1855,[2] was once the center of the sprawling 22,000-acre (89 km2) Rancho San Jose.[2] The Rancho San Jose consisted of land taken from the Mission San Gabriel in 1834 as part of the Mexican government's secularization decree.[3] In 1837, Mexican Governor Juan Bautista Alvarado granted the land to Ygnacio Palomares and Ricardo Vejar, both sons of native Spaniards. The Rancho San Jose operated by Dons Palomares and Vejar covered land that now forms the communities of Pomona, LaVerne, San Dimas, Diamond Bar, Azusa, Covina, Walnut, Glendora, and Claremont.[4] Palomares initially lived in the "Casa Primera", an earlier adobe which is also operated by the Historical Society of Pomona Valley.
Construction and architecture[edit]
Between 1850 and 1855, Palomares built a new home, which is the present historic site.[4] The 13-room adobe was built in a T-shape with a courtyard. The living room and master bedroom were located at the stem of the T, and the adobe also had four more bedrooms, a dining room, kitchen, storeroom, tienda (or store), and storage chambers.[2][4] The kitchen was located at the north end of the T, close to the outdoor oven (or "horno").[5] The house has been said to represent the blending of Mexican adobe construction and American styles, with the use of milled roofing and flooring on the adobe structure.[4]
Use by the Palomares family[edit]
The Palomares Adobe was used for a time as an overnight stagecoach stop at the midway point between Los Angeles and San Bernardino.[6] The Palomares home was reportedly "the heart of the rancho," with its doors open to travelers and a store that provided goods to settlers.[2] The large living room served for many years as a meeting place and a chapel where padres from the San Gabriel Mission would travel once a month to say mass.[5] Ygnacio Palomares and his wife operated the land as a sheep and cattle ranch, grew their own crops, and raised five children at the adobe.[2] The ranch prospered for many years, but a severe drought devastated the ranch in the early 1860s. Smallpox also claimed the lives of three of the Palomares' children, and Don Ygnacio died in 1864.[2][3]
Don Ygnacio's widow, Dona Concepcion Lopez de Palomares (also known as "Dona China"), began selling off the ranch land in 1865. In 1874, another of the Palomares' children died, and Dona China sold the remaining 2,000 acres (8.1 km2), including the adobe, at $8 an acre, to John R. Loop and Alvin R. Meserve.[2][3][5] The new owners, the Meserve family, continued to maintain the adobe as a community gathering place afterh acquiring it in 1874.[3] Prominent Los Angeles attorney Edwin A. Meserve, later recalled coming to the adobe as "a sickly youngster of 13" in 1877, regaining his health while living in the old adobe.[7] However, by the mid-1880s, the old adobe had been deserted.[3]
Deterioration and restoration[edit]
From the 1880s through the 1920s, the adobe was left to the elements and fell into severe disrepair, with whole wings of the house being washed away and the walls and roof crumbling.[8][9] The dilapidated condition of the adobe is shown in 1938 photographs seen here and here. In 1934, the City of Pomona purchased the land for a reservoir,[9] and the Historical Society of Pomona Valley began plans for restoration of the old adobe.[5] In the spring and summer of 1939, 70 WPA workers began the process of restoring the adobe.[3][6] The workers used dirt from the Ganesha Gills for adobe mud to build new adobe bricks. The adobe bricks were made using straw as the only binder, molding the bricks in forms by hand, and curing the bricks in the sun.[6] Approximately 25,000 new adobe bricks were used in the restoration process. The cost of the restoration was placed at $54,000.[5][6] Many of the bricks were made from the broken original adobe bricks, and the new bricks can reportedly be distinguished by the short lengths of straw used to mix with the mud, while marsh grass can be seen in the old adobe bricks.[5]
The restoration was completed in December 1939, and[10] and the restored house was furnished with period furniture typical of the California ranchos,[11] much of it donated by Mrs. Harry Walker of San Dimas.[12] The original landscaping was also restored with wisteria vines, wild cherry, black walnut, pomegranates and poplar trees.[2][11] Charles Gibbs Adams oversaw the landscaping restoration, planting trees, shrubs and rosebushes in the same locations where they had been in the mid-19th Century.[7]
Operation as a museum[edit]
The adobe was dedicated and opened to the public in April 1940 as a museum focusing on life in the early California ranchos. At the dedication ceremony, the keys were presented by Pomona's mayor to the Historical Society of Pomona Valley, and Ygancio Palomares, grandson of Don Ygnacio, "danced the dances taught him by his grandmother, his granddaughter Hilda Ramirez, being his dancing partner."[13] The restoration was well-received, with one writer in the Los Angeles Times writing: "The example of this restoration ought to inspire other communities and families to do the same. This adobe has now become an imperishable glorification of early California, and an irresistible lure for modern visitors."[7] Two years later, the Times reported: "The structure has become famous throughout the nation as a permanent museum housing many relics and equipment of the early Spanish days in California."[14] In 1968, it was called "one of the pleasantest and most complete of the rancho restorations."[15]
Members of the Palomares family were invited to move into the restored adobe as caretakers. In December 1939, Porfiero R. Palomares (c. 1871-1942), who was born in the adobe and was the grandson of Don Ygnacio, moved into the restored structure as caretaker with his wife and daughter.[10][14] Porfiero lived at the adobe until he died there in October 1942.[14] Porfiero's widow, Hortensia Yorba Palomares, continued to live in the adobe until her death in July 1958.[2][5][12]

Hello fellow moms!
Just thought I'd share this cute experience... my boxer, Max who is just 1 years old has been smelling my belly from time to time. I wonder if I smell weird, or if he knows something is in there. It's the cutest thing to watch. My fiance' and I just laugh everytime he does it. Just curious, has this happened to anyone of you? If so, please share your stories.
Oh the joys of pregnancy.....
Awe, what a cutie! He has no clue of the changes ahead! :)

Breast cancer is not a topic in our house. It is very rarely mentioned in conversation, if ever. That's not to say it's off-limits — if my sons have a question, all they have to do is ask. But see, we lived through it, and now we're done. BUT I NEVER, EVER WANT MY BOYS TO FORGET. Because cancer is not a focal point, it could easily become forgotten — you know, the stuff that "out-of-sight, out-of-mind" is made of. And I do not want that. I don't want my boys growing up, burying a part of our family's story, and Continue reading >>
I woke up yesterday morning with a smile on my face before I even remembered why I was smiling. Subconsciously, I knew. Consciously, I was still catching up. Two years ago to the day, I did not wake with a smile on my face. As my alarm sounded at 3:30 AM, I wasn't really waking at all; I had never completely fallen asleep. No one in my house had really slept-slept that night, only half-slept. The 3:30 bell was the official reminder that the day was real, there was business to take care of, and that business involved prayers, surgeons, Continue reading >>
Upfront Declaration: Today's post is not for everyone. But because trust is about listening to your intuition, paying attention to the voice inside, then doing what you are called to do, I've chosen to share the video below and the topic of nipple sparing mastectomy with you today. If you or someone you love is ever diagnosed with breast cancer, this topic will be HUGE. Why So Taboo? Nipples aren't something we talk about in public. We all have them, it's not like they're gender specific. Yet, how interesting we're able to say breast or penis with less awkwardness Continue reading >>
Pink Ribbon Overload Familiar heading? I used it last week when I posted, The New C Word. Yes, I'm on pink ribbon overload. And it's not just the pink ribbons, it's the whole Komen walk. I did my first Race For The Cure in the late 1980′s, back when breast cancer was not so near and dear to my heart, but interestingly enough, back when I believed my running in it and supporting it actually mattered. This past weekend, as I walked with 24,000+ other supporters through the pink-saturated streets of Dallas, I looked around and marveled at the spectacle Continue reading >>
Last year, on this very day, many of you were praying for me as I went into the hospital to undergo a bi-lateral mastectomy. Today is a milestone and I feel blessed, Blessed, BLESSED. You may recall, when this healing journey began (as I referred to it), I asked you to do one thing: to see me as Whole. As already healed… in the present tense. And you did. Thank you. I remember sharing this picture with you: This tag was attached to the ear of a stuffed animal given to me by the radiologist who performed my mammogram (my Continue reading >>

JUST WONDERFUL. So bright and vibrant and I love the interesting angle that you captured it from. Stunning.

I love the title hehe. Not to mention the fact that the yellow tulip looks so shiny and golden! I like the fact that it is streching towards the sub and sky. You must be a good photographer. :) The part of the house and sky look nice. 5/5h and faves.
