The best thing about traveling is that some experiences just crop up spontaneously.
Take a recent Saturday evening in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine.
It's chilly, and people hurry past on their way to clubs and restaurants, their coat collars turned up against the wind.
Young women clatter up the steps from the Teatralna metro station, oblivious to the sound that wafts up behind them — the sound of people singing.

The world is close to eliminating polio once and for all.
Just a few decades ago, polio was crippling more than a thousand children each day. Now the paralyzing virus is endemic to only three countries — Afghanistan, Pakistan and Nigeria. And there were just 223 cases globally last year.

Four children are among the dead in a stabbing attack that took place in Brooklyn Saturday night, New York officials say. Police say five people died from the attack at an apartment in the Sunset Park neighborhood. Emergency responders were called to the residence around 11 p.m.
"All five of the dead had stab wounds to their upper bodies, police said," according to CNN. "Police identified the victims as Qiao Zhen Li, 37; Linda Zhuo, 9; Amy Zhuo, 7; Kevin Zhuo, 5; and William Zhuo, 1."
The process of cataloging and destroying Syria's chemical weapons stockpile took another stride Sunday, as the country met a deadline for submitting a formal declaration of its chemical arsenal. Weapons experts must also complete their inspection of all 23 storage and production sites today.

Game 3 of the World Series ended in unusual fashion Saturday night, as a ninth-inning obstruction call on Boston third baseman Will Middlebrooks resulted in umpires awarding a base to St. Louis' Allen Craig — bringing the winning run home and putting the Cardinals ahead in the series, 2-1.
It's reportedly the first time an obstruction call has ended a World Series game. And it brought an end to a nearly four-hour contest in which the Red Sox had twice rallied from two-run deficits — most recently in the eighth inning.

One year ago Tuesday, Hurricane Sandy bore down on the East Coast, devastating shoreline communities from Florida to Maine.
Many of these areas have been rebuilt, including the Long Beach boardwalk, about 30 miles outside New York City. Officials held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new boardwalk Friday.
Ninety percent of the funding for the restoration came from the federal government. The Federal Emergency Management Agency paid $44 million to repair the devastation.

Kokomo —
After 18 interviews, copious note-taking, endless discussions and picture browsing for a story about something bigger than its parts — i.e. Kokomo Speedway — is nearly finished. To be honest, I'd never been to Kokomo Speedway until last year. I grew up watching the Indy 500 and picking a name from a hat, but my racing knowledge ended there. But, when you fall in love with someone who fell in love with Kokomo Speedway — most likely when he was still in the womb as his mom watched his dad race — your knowledge increases, exponentially.
On Sunday, Kokomo Speedway will open its doors after hibernating beneath the snow, cold and rain and the memories that were buried under blankets of white will crop up as the cars file into the parking lot. Handshakes will be exchanged, and a reunion of everyone you haven't seen for the past seven months will be underway — usually with a beer or three.
During my first exposure of Kokomo Speedway, I loved it. I loved the tradition of everyone nestled in the same seat they settled into decades before. I loved how people knew each other as who they were — not the version they wanted to be seen as.
There's something unique about a place where people's lives evolve, but there is a Sunday night window they refuse to close. If they move, they come back for it. If they have work in the morning, they stay up for it. To have a spot of permanence and tradition in an unpredictable world, is what makes Sunday night under a setting sun at Kokomo Speedway so special.
It's hard to find out how a place like Kokomo Speedway has developed such a "feel." How it's become a fixture in the lives who live it each week. I'm not sure you could ever objectively — it's something different for everyone — find where the "feel" of it came from. Some claim its rich history, others say the famous names who've plowed through its dirt oval. But, the one word I heard throughout every interview I conducted for Sunday's story was: family. Not one interview ended without the mention of family. There were tie-ins to tradition, respect for the sport of racing. But, it was family that made the wheels in people's minds spin. When I asked questions about memories, the spark was lit and the word family was the basis of the flame that ignited in the stories that were sure to follow.
The process of this story was inspiring because the people made it that way. Hearing what a place meant to them because of the lives they shared it with and seeing how it stuck with them was something that restored my faith in the balance of the planet. The fact that on the outside, they're there to watch a race. But, on the inside, the true story is they're there to see the people they've seen their whole lives, they're there to celebrate a tradition their grandpa celebrated. It's a tradition I loved instantly and grew to appreciate quickly; getting glimpses into why this particular place means so much to so many has made this hands-down one of my favorite stories. Thank you for letting me tell it.

Close to half of smartphone owners and tablet owners said they use their mobile devices as a second screen while watching TV, according to a new survey by Nielsen.
Over two-thirds of these consumers claimed to have used these second screens multiple times a week during Q1 2013.
The survey looked at what tablet or smartphone activities consumers are partaking in while simultaneously watching television. The survey aimed to find out if consumers are using second screens while watching TV as mere distractions or if they were trying to engage more deeply with the content they were watching. Nielsen found that the answer was both.
Among tablet owners, 76 percent looked up information in general, 68 percent surfed the web, and 53 percent visited a social networking site. But almost half of tablet owners looked up information on actors, plotlines, athletes, or teams, and 20 percent purchased a product or service that was being advertised.
A much higher percentage of tablet owners versus smartphone owners used their second screen to engage with the show they were watching or to post something about it. About 15 percent of tablet users said they watched certain TV programming because of something they read on a social media site.
Nielsen's Q1 2013 Cross-Platform Report found that smartphone users spend an average of nine hours every month connecting with social media from their mobile device, while tablet users spend an average of four hours each month.

Hardin County residents looking for a fresh, healthy start in 2012 can gain some helpful hints Saturday at Radcliff's Health and Wellness Expo at Colvin Community Center.
For the last four years, Radcliff has organized its health expo in early January, said Lori Jury, recreation director at Colvin. This year the event is sponsored by Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
"January seems to be the time of year for health and wellness," Jury said.
For Eli Whitlock, a cancer diagnosis led him to one of the healthiest times in his life.
The 25-year-old Magnolia resident lost more than 100 pounds after deciding to change his lifestyle after receiving a cancer diagnosis four years ago.
Whitlock was diagnosed with testicular cancer in the summer of 2008 and had surgery days after learning of the disease. He didn't need any other treatment to become cancer-free and he felt he "got off pretty lucky with that," he said.
Elizabethtown police arrested two Radcliff residents Tuesday related to an attempted murder after a gunshot was heard on North Mantle Avenue.
An argument Tuesday morning about illegal drugs culminated in a shot being fired, said Sgt. Tim Cleary with the Elizabethtown Police Department. Stacey G. Ford, 30, and Kelly L. Kennedy, 33, were arrested without incident Tuesday evening.
According to police, Kennedy drove to a North Mantle residence where Ford got out of a car, produced a Kimber .45-caliber semi-automatic handgun and fired a shot at a man's head.
A Radcliff resident wanted in connection with a LaRue County homicide last weekend was found Wednesday night at a Louisville motel on Preston Highway, according to Kentucky State Police.
Abdullah R. White, 35, reportedly was seen fleeing the murder scene in the victim's vehicle that was later found in Taylor County.
Kentucky State Police and the U.S. Marshal's Fugitive Task Force developed information leading to White's arrest. He has been charged with burglary and theft by unlawful taking.
After a year of managing Hardin County's largest city, Elizabethtown Mayor Tim Walker maintains the type of mild-mannered disposition he held while operating a small business and serving as a member of Elizabethtown City Council for more than a decade.
The soft-spoken Walker said his goal was to create an environment where employees looked upon him as a co-worker rather than a boss.
The alcohol business in Hardin County is not being courted just by convenience stores and corporate chains.
City and county elected officials are making bids to acquire retail liquor licenses, joining a number of small-business owners in the applicant pool.
In Radcliff, Councilman Don Yates has partnered with former Councilman Jerry Brown to obtain licensing for a package liquor store at 301 W. Lincoln Trail Blvd., which is the current site of Brown's bookstore. The store would operate as Lincoln Trail Liquors, according to a legal notice.
Some area residents have the gold bug and are part of a national clamor to sell gold for high returns.
Wes Priddy, owner of Priddy Jewelers in Elizabethtown, said his store has seen an increase in the number of people who want to sell their gold.
Most sellers came calling near the time gold prices peaked in July, he said.
Priddy didn't begin buying gold until he saw how many people were interested in selling.
A Radcliff man charged with sexual abuse of a minor waived a preliminary hearing Wednesday in Hardin District Court.
Elijah K. Hampton, 18, was arrested Dec. 27 and charged with second-degree sodomy and second-degree sexual abuse after accusations of a sexual encounter with a girl younger than 14.
Bryce Shumate, spokesman for Radcliff Police Department, said the girl's mother told police she caught her daughter and Hampton together, which caused Hampton to flee. Investigators found him later that day.
Old arguments die hard but the debate over declaring an economic hardship has been put to bed for now.
Elizabethtown City Council on Tuesday nixed the hardship, 4-2, which would have allowed restaurants to garner up to 50 percent of their sales from alcohol. Currently, restaurants in Elizabethtown must collect a minimum of 70 percent of sales from food.
The motion to declare the hardship was supported by Councilmen Larry Ashlock and Kenny Lewis, but neither man gained much traction in convincing their counterparts to give the motion real consideration.

Postal workers vow to fight planned closings
Postal workers plan to fight a proposal to close mail processing centers in Michigan.
Postal Service officials confirmed this week they plan to move forward with closing more than 200 processing centers nationwide next year. That includes facilities in a half dozen Michigan cities, including Lansing, Jackson and Kalamazoo.
John Marcotte is the president of the Michigan Postal Workers Union. He described the Postal Service's plan to slow mail delivery in order to save money as a 'death spiral'.
"If you want to mail a birthday card across town, it takes ten days to get there…no one's going to use it," said Marcotte.
Marcotte added the proposed closings will cost 1,400 jobs in Michigan.
Postal workers are urging Congress to repeal a law that has forced the Post Office to overpay into its employee retirement system.
Marcotte said that's why the Post Office is losing billions of dollars a year, not because of the growth of email and package delivery competitors.

Dave Blaney, Tommy Baldwin Racing and SANY America looked to Las Vegas to hit the jackpot with the lucky number 7. The results: a clean, steady performance for the No. 7 SANY America team and leaving Las Vegas still in the fight.
Rain forced the cancellation of Friday's qualifying session and set the starting order by the 2012 owners points per the rule book. Dave Blaney started the Kobalt Tools 400 in 33rd, having to work to gain valuable track position at the drop of the green flag.
Blaney advanced to 26th by Lap 60, reporting a loose car and trying to make passes to gain positions. By Lap 100, Blaney was steady at 25th but reporting the handling had gotten worse than the first run of the day. Through the 246 laps race, handling was an issue that Blaney and Crew Chief/Team Owner Tommy Baldwin worked on with each pit stop.Taking the checkers in 24th, Blaney told his crew, "Good gains today boys. On to next week."
"Like everyone, we battled a loose racecar throughout the Kobalt Tools 400" Blaney said. "Tommy and the crew kept digging, working hard to dial in the car, and that is a true testament to who we are at TBR. It was awesome to have SANY America back on board, and we look forward to heading to Bristol this weekend."
"Like other teams, we fought a loose condition with the car all day, but Dave gave us great feedback and we were able to make good adjustments," Baldwin said. "Each week we're getting better and better -- and that speaks to great teamwork. We'll continue to work towards solid finishes each week."

Waldman begins 25th season
Here is a story I wrote about Suzyn Waldman as she begins her 25th season covering the Yankees, and the final year of her contract.
In other Yankees media news . . .
Paul O'Neill long has had the potential to be YES' answer to SNY's Keith Hernandez – gravitas as the heart and soul of championship teams, plus a quirky sense of humor that enlivens a booth.
(Also, both starred in long-ago "Seinfeld'' episodes.)
But O'Neill has worked a severely limited schedule to be home with his family in Ohio. Now that his children are getting older, though, O'Neill seems willing to expand his role.
This season he is to work about 45 games, his most ever, and YES hopes that number grows further in coming years.
David Cone will return to the network this season after a one-year absence. He is to work about half as many games as O'Neill.

This is why Slayer are still around and are still a real vital force in the metal scene—they continue to put out quality metal music. They're not just putting out new CDs so they can have an excuse to tour and play the golden oldies.
World Painted Blood makes Slayer sound just as fresh and important as they did in the 80's.
It's difficult to pick out the best songs on this CD, there are highlights, but really every track is good. This album can really hold it's own even when compared to the classics; Reign in Blood, South of Heaven and Seasons in the Abyss…really. I've always been a fan of Divine Intervention too, WPB is just as good, maybe better.
It's better than Show no Mercy and Hell Awaits. It by far surpasses Diabolus (The only Slayer CD I don't like a lot). It's better than Christ Illusion (I like that one too).
I like the sheer aggression and rawness of God Hates us All, but WPB is better–it has all the aggression plus the old school riffs and melody, the solos, the drumming, the screams…ahhhhhh!!!
It's really just the next step of Slayer's evolution. All the best parts of what they've done in the past and little more.
Whenever one of the big four put out a new album there has to be a comparison, well this release far surpasses Megadaves last release; Endgame.
Metallica's Death Magnetic was an improvement for them, but has nowhere near the sheer power and frankly, talent as WPB.
And Anthrax? Are they even relevant at this point?
Slayer are the only one of the big 4 that have stayed true to their fans, thier roots, they are thr Thrash Metal Gods.

SummaryGenomic rearrangement of the antigen receptor loci is initiated by the two lymphoid-specific proteins Rag-1 and Rag-2. Null mutations in either of the two proteins abrogate initiation of V(D)J recombination and cause severe combined immunodeficiency with complete absence of mature B and T lymphocytes. We report here that patients with Omenn syndrome, a severe immunodeficiency characterized by the presence of activated, anergic, oligoclonal T cells, hypereosinophilia, and high IgE levels, bear missense mutations in either the Rag-1 or Rag-2 genes that result in partial activity of the two proteins. Two of the amino acid substitutions map within the Rag-1 homeodomain and decrease DNA binding activity, while three others lower the efficiency of Rag-1/Rag-2 interaction. These findings provide evidence to indicate that the immunodeficiency manifested in patients with Omenn syndrome arises from mutations that decrease the efficiency of V(D)J recombination.

The Homeodomain Region of Rag-1 Reveals the Parallel Mechanisms of Bacterial and V(D)J Recombination
Cell, Volume 87, Issue 2, 18 October 1996, Pages 263-276
Eugenia Spanopoulou, Florina Zaitseva, Fu-Hou Wang, Sandro Santagata, David Baltimore and George Panayotou
SummaryThe V(D)J recombinase subunits Rag-1 and Rag-2 mediate assembly of antigen receptor gene segments. We studied the mechanisms of DNA recognition by Rag-1/Rag-2 using surface plasmon resonance. The critical step for signal recognition is binding of Rag-1 to the nonamer. This is achieved by a region of Rag-1 homologous to the DNA-binding domain of the Hin family of bacterial invertases and to homeodomain proteins. Strikingly, the Hin homeodomain can functionally substitute for the Rag-1 homologous region. Rag-1 also interacts with the heptamer but with low affinity. Rag-2 shows no direct binding to DNA. Once the Rag-1/Rag-2 complex is engaged on the DNA, subsequent cleavage is directed by the heptamer sequence. This order of events remarkably parallels mechanisms that mediate transposition in bacteria and nematodes.

V(D)J Recombination Signal Recognition
Immunity, Volume 9, Issue 1, 1 July 1998, Pages 115-125
Patrick C. Swanson and Stephen Desiderio
SummaryProtein interactions with V(D)J recombination signal sequences (RSSs) were mapped in complexes containing RAG1 with (M1/2) or without (M1) RAG2. In both complexes, RAG interactions with the DNA backbone are biased toward one side of the helix; nonamer contacts resemble those of Hin with hixL. In the M1 complex, DNA contacts are centered on the nonamer. In the M1/2 complex, protein-RSS interactions extend through the spacer and into the nonamer-proximal portion of the heptamer. Chemical modifications near the heptamer-coding junction are overrepresented in the M1/2 complex, providing evidence for perturbation of DNA structure in this region. Thus, while RAG1 alone can bind the nonamer, RAG2 is required for heptamer occupancy.

Add/View Comments (0)Complementation of V(D)J Recombination Deficiency in RAG-1−/− B Cells Reveals a Requirement for Novel Elements in the N-Terminus of RAG-1
Christopher A.J Roman1, Sara R Cherry1 and David Baltimore1, *,
1 Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139, USA
- RAG-1 is an essential component of the site-specific V(D)J recombinase. A new assay system has revealed a significant contribution of the catalytically dispensible N-terminal region of RAG-1 to recombination activity. The foundation for this system is an Abelson virus–transformed cell line derived from RAG-1−/− mice that is dependent on the introduction of exogenous RAG-1 for rearrangement of either plasmid substrates or the endogenous immunoglobulin loci. Use of this line demonstrates that conserved and novel cysteine-containing elements in the N-terminal region are required for full RAG-1 activity when recombination activity is in a RAG-1 dose-responsive range. Our data suggest that the RAG-1 N-terminus enhances the formation of an active recombination complex that facilitates the rearrangement process.

New York -- New York Jets Coach Rex Ryan had some fun at the expense of his twin brother, Cleveland defensive coordinator Rob Ryan, at a press conference Wednesday.
Rex Ryan and Jets were preparing to take on Cleveland Sunday, and in honor of the presence of his brother, Ryan impersonated his twin and rival, wearing a get-up that including a pillow stuffed underneath a Browns T-shirt, The (Newark, N.J.) Star-Ledger reported.
The Jets boss also wore a Browns hat with long, curly hair affixed to it.
College Park, Md. -- NASA's close encounter with comet Hartley 2 found dry ice is the fuel for jets of gas and dust bursting from the comet's surface, U.S. researchers say.
Images from the University of Maryland-led EPOXI mission flyby show spectacular jets of gas and particles shooting from many distinct spots on the surface of the comet, a university release said Wednesday.
Spectral analysis of the materials coming from the jets shows primarily CO2 gas (carbon dioxide) and particles of dust and ice, researchers said.
"Previously it was thought that water vapor from water ice was the propulsive force behind jets of material coming off of the body, or nucleus, of the comet," UM astronomy professor Jessica Sunshine said.

Hawthorn superstar Lance Franklin is bracing himself for a repeat of the roughhouse tactics that Collingwood backman Chris Tarrant employed against him on Friday night.
Tarrant made a concerted effort to put Franklin off his game in the first qualifying final with overly aggressive and physical attention.
But Franklin still finished the match with 4.3 to go with his 18 touches, seven marks and three score assists.
The Hawks forward said he wouldn't be bothered by more close checking later in the finals and even revealed he enjoyed his fiery tete-a-tete with Tarrant.
"It was a good little battle," Franklin said at Waverley Park on Monday.
"We've played against each other for a number of years now and I enjoyed it. It was really good.
"Once you cross the white line, anything can happen in football."
Tarrant is sure to come under scrutiny from the match review panel for one particular incident in his running battle with Franklin.
The retiring defender landed a forceful swinging arm to Franklin's midriff but the star Hawk didn't think there was much in it.
Hawthorn comfortably accounted for Collingwood without key players Jordan Lewis and Clinton Young who will almost certainly return for their preliminary final engagement with either Adelaide or Fremantle in a fortnight's time.
It's not the first time this year the minor premiers have seamlessly covered the losses of injured players with the likes of Franklin and inspirational skipper Luke Hodge, in particular, missing big chunks of the season.
And Franklin said it had taken a long time for his team to finally cultivate their coveted list depth.
"We've got a pretty mature group at the moment and we've played a lot of footy together so if a guy does go out we've got guys that can cover those blokes," Franklin said.
"It's taken a long time for that to happen as a footy club but we're slowly getting there."
Brendan Whitecross is another player Hawthorn will have to do with out for the remainder of the year after he ruptured his ACL against the Magpies.
And while he appeared to be in extraordinarily good spirits post-match, goalsneak Cyril Rioli anticipated his mindset may take a turn for the worse in the coming weeks.
"Once we do start playing footy again, I think it might hit him," Rioli said.
Meanwhile, Franklin ominously declared there was still more improvement left in him and the high-flying Hawks as the AFL season heads towards its crescendo.
"I haven't really put together a four-quarter performance ... it'd be good just to get four quarters under my belt," Franklin said.
"On the weekend I think that was probably one of our better performances, we played a good four-quarter game, it was really hot early and we stood up to the pressure."
Franklin wasn't fussed by having a week off this week but Rioli said it was going to be tough to put the feet up.
"I think the boys would love to be playing this week, having the week off it's a bit difficult, other teams are playing a dress rehearsal for the finals," said Rioli.
The Hawks are scheduled to play their preliminary final on Saturday before the premiership decider.
But despite finishing on top of the ladder, Franklin didn't seem bothered at the prospect of having one less day's break than a potential grand final opponent if they were to win their preliminary final.

Life in a workhouse - video diary (drama)
Duration: 04:13
Charles Dickens presents a topical chat show about workhouses in Victorian times. Nelly travels to a workhouse in Nottinghamshire. In 1861, 35,000 children under 12 lived and worked in workhouses in Britain. These children would work day and night, and their masters would often treat them very badly. A workhouse boy, very like Charles Dickens's famous character Oliver Twist, reports on the living conditions for children, including work picking out old ropes, harsh discipline and punishment by whipping. He shows us the cold, cramped conditions the boys have to sleep in, as well as telling us about the brutality of the staff. The boy tells us about the story of how he ended up in the workhouse. We get to see the jobs the boys are given in order to pay their keep at the workhouse, as well as hearing the boy's views on the situation.

Featured review from A.K as Tomorrow Never Dies
view more less of this reviewMy wife and I celebrated our 28th wedding anniversary on the date we took the tour, everything about the tour is wonderful.
It startrd out with a beautiful weather, have a nice time driving to Laguna, we got to Laguna way early, around 10 minutes before 10 AM. We parked at the suggested $5 parking lot located on Mernaid Street, there is no parking attendent on duty, we figured because we got there early, and the parking attendant has not yet come in, we could pay him on the way out, anyway we parked and walk to the address where we will be meeting at 10:30 AM.
Lorraine, the tour guide is very knowledgeable to various "hot spots" in Laguna Beach, and she is very engaged with our group, our group is made up with 4 teams of 2, mother and daughter, husband & wife, boyfriend and girlfriend, we share what city we were from and if any one are celebrating special event on the tour.
We all received a bottle of water, then the food tasting began, we tasted more foods after each of the point of interest. The foods are great, and the places Lorraine show us are very interesting, likes; the smallest church in the world. The tour lasted about 3 hours, just about 1:30 PM, give you the rest of the afternoon to explore Laguna.
The shuttle during the Summer is Free, so after the tour ended, my wife & I catched the shuttle heading south to South Laguna Beach (you are getting on Stop# 1) to the Montage luxury beach resort (you are getting off Stop# 15).
The view at the Montage is breath taking, luxury oceanfront beach property with lushly landscaped, my wife & I took a walk on the beach sidewalk behind the resort, and took a walk inside the resort. A must after the tasting tour to complete the wonderful day at Laguna.
We received addition bonus when we won the $10 to the Gallo subs, gift from flavors of Laguna, and the parking is free. (Parking Attendant is not on duty when the time we left the parking lot or he/she never did come in that day)
Thank you Goldstar, to help my wife and I celebrated our 28th years together with flavors of Laguna. We loved it.

I really enjoy this DVD set. The lessons are fun to learn with several movements much easier to learn that I thought they would be (like shoulder shakes and body shimmies) I didn't feel like any of the moves were impossible to master. You're working out while you're learning and having fun at the same time.
One bonus for me is that my four month old son enjoys watching lovely Veena and Neena dance while I follow along (looking silly right now). So I can get in my physical activity without waiting for him to nap.
I look forward to the time I can show my new talent to my husband, which I have no doubt he will enjoy. Until then I'm going to keep practicing, practicing, practicing, with Veena and Neena.
The extra dance videos are fun to watch and really get your imagination going. They show the different forms of belly dancing there are out there. The costumes are lovely (and inspiring)and so are the ladies performing them. I've gotten several good ideas as to the type of costume I would like to make for myself.
If you decide that to buy this DVD set, I doubt you'll be disappointed. It's fun, lovely, and tastefully done.
Anyway, these two know how to teach well, and they are great! I learned a few new things, and it is a fun workout as well.
Get this one if you really want to learn bellydance.
The DVDs included in this set are: Basic Dance, Beyond Basic Dance, and Mystic Dance. They are beautifully done with amazing costumes and breathtaking backgrounds. The music is always great, and there is lots of neat extra dance footage. The only reason I give this set 4 out of 5 stars is because some of the instructional parts of the videos are too rushed. They will sometimes show you the basic move, do it once or twice, and then start speeding it up or adding extra movement. Maybe I am just especially uncoordinated, but I can't keep up. It's going to take me many tries to learn a move before I can do it at the speed they show.
However, I definitely recommend this set of DVDs. Neena & Veena are the best - they have been dancing all of their lives and have studied throughout the world. They are beautiful and inspiring to watch.
If you want to learn "the sensual art of bellydance", choose this set.

Day 8 - Crete: Ouch! Time for rest & recovery!
... We picked out a cute little restaurant in a square just off the busiest roads. There we had another fabulous meal. Greek salad, amazing grilled mushrooms (no idea what kind, but they looked like fans), and a house "special" – feta wrapped in bacon and eggplant. Seriously, that was the best thing we've eaten here. We were sad to find out that this wasn't a traditional Greek dish as one of the ladies at the shop ...

The large urn is the same height as Brian it was turned in three to four pieces.....someone must have been the turner & someone else the potter surely? Must have been a combination of coils & turning. Later potteries were seen to be painted then the dark paint was etched. You may make out the little blue pottery....time after trade with exports & imports.

Great Workout Shorts
These comfortable shorts are great for daily workouts. They are light weight and well constructed with a soft comfortable fabric. They stretch with you when you move. The interior lining layer adds to the comfort. They also have a small stash pocket for small items. I have these shorts in both colors. They can also be worn around town. Love these shorts!
neddydh - August 23 2011
Schweet Shorts
These shorts are super comfy to rock all day - side velcro'd pocket is a great touch. Built in boxer-brief style liner (MUCH better than standard brief style liners) is a bonus - I use the shorts as casual shorts or workout/running shorts. Construction/seamwork is awesome and material seems really durable. Slight stretch to fabric - overall highly recommended!
EKR123 - July 30 2011
Comfortable, lightweight shorts
Strong but soft and thin lightweight material makes these shorts a favorite pick for multiple activities, from strenuous exercise to lounging. Lack of pockets limits their use a bit and liner could use a little more support but otherwise these shorts are very good. Medium fits me well (5'9", 145 lbs., 30" waist).
Carolyn Shockey - July 5 2010
Favorite shorts
This is my second pair of Prana flex shorts. I bought my first pair specifically for running, but ended up using them for much more. I decided to purchase my first pair partly because they were made in the U.S.A., but liked and used them so much I soon needed a second pair. Great looking and comfortable.
Mike Kovach - May 9 2010
Great multi-use shorts
I wear these for yoga, running, bike riding, weight training, hiking and casual wear. The bicycle style liner is very comfy and the lightweight fabric has just the right amount of stretch. I normally wear a medium short but like the fit of the size large in these. The Flex shorts are very well constructed and best of all they are made in the USA!

I ordered 1 pair of boot, 1 pair of heels and 1 dress. All items were of excellent quality and they all fit well. I will definitely be ordering from here again. The only downfall is the postage cost. At £6 this is pretty steep, but seems more reasonable if you buy a few items at once. It's a good excuse to buy more though!! All in all I would recommend this site with no qualms.

'Dr. Liza' heads a free clinic that helps Moscow's homeless and hopeless
From her clinic, Elizaveta Glinka and her volunteers give food, clothing, medicine, and other help to Moscow's homeless.
Elizaveta Glinka quit her job at a medical clinic to start her own clinic and treat homeless people and seriously ill patients free of charge in Moscow.
Skip to next paragraphSubscribe Today to the Monitor
Also a blogger and a charity activist, she's a doctor who gives hope to those who have lost it.
All three roles merge in this tiny lady. Every day she comes to a basement office on Pyatnitskaya Street in Moscow, the office from which her charity fund operates.
"I want to help patients who have no faith" that they can recover, says Dr. Glinka, or Dr. Liza, as she is known.
In 1986 she received a degree as an emergency physician from the First Moscow Medical State University. That same year she immigrated with her husband to the United States, but the couple later returned to Russia.
Her first experience in the charity field dates to 1999, when she started the first private hospice in Kiev, Ukraine. Eight years later Glinka created a charity fund in Moscow called "Just Help," which aids seriously ill patients, homeless people, and poor families.
Glinka and her volunteers give medications, food, clothes, and other goods to those who cannot afford them.
Several years ago she started a blog with the nickname "doctor_liza" to promote the activities of her organization. In 2010 she was named blogger of the year in the Russian Internet contest ROTOR.
"People often ask me why I am doing this. It's hard to explain. I just like this job," Glinka says.
Tatiana, a volunteer for the past three years, describes Glinka as "a person who cannot pass by when she sees someone in trouble."
Some time ago one of Tatiana's daughters died in a car accident. The other survived but was severely injured.
"Our grief brought us together. Dr. Liza's mother was ill; my daughter was suffering. That's how we got close," she says.
"Just Help" is a private effort that doesn't receive any financial aid from the Russian government. Glinka has never asked for government aid as she appreciates her financial independence.
Although now she holds the title of executive director, she still treats patients, feeds homeless people, and listens to the problems of those in need.
The organization operates thanks to charity and the money invested by Glinka's team. She doesn't know the exact number of people helping her, but there are about seven volunteers who work on a regular basis at the organization's office.
Glinka gave up her job in the medical clinic to devote all her time to charity work and her own clinic, which costs between $10,000 and $13,000 a month to run.

If you don't recall who this fortune-grabbing fortuneteller is, then you can click on the comic below for a brief trip down memory lane.
The Voodoo Lady has played a commanding role in several AC storylines throughout the years, and it appears that she is still up to her no-good tricks.
Did she really summon up the spirit of this lady's long-deceased husband? Hey, I don't know for sure, but I ain't crazy enough to call her on her abilities. I can't create any more comic strips if I get transmogrified into a frog or sumthin'.

Honestly, one of my favorite junglers is Volibear. He is a beast. Camp Clearing: His E gives you three seconds of feared creep, and his W is like a mini-smite. He can clear really fast and in almost complete safety. Ganking: Throw, then slow, then slash. If you have anyone even half-competent in lane, it's almost always a kill. Plus, it's way fun to watch people try and run from you when you come running out of the jungle Counter-Jungling: He jungles quickly, he has an escape in his speed boost and slow, and his passive makes him SO hard to kill (especially 1v1). Not much more you could ask for in a counter-jungler. Now, obviously, everybody has their own opinion on who the best jungler is, and I'm not saying that Voli is THE BEST JUNGLER, I'm not sure that any one champion can hold that title, but he is certainly my favorite, and I think I have good reason to think so :P
Camp Clearing: Shyvana/Udyr Ganking: Twitch Counter-Jungling: Shyvana/Udyr/Lee sin Jungle Duelist: Trundle
eV Kamite
Camp Clearing: Shyv / Dr. Mundo Ganking: Nocturne, Shaco, Lee (Ganking mostly is dependent on gap closers and CC, any jungler with either of those can be good, Fiddle is a great ganker, with a gap closer and a CC, wether he's viable or not is another story however) Counter-Jungling: Shyvana / even Udyr, dueling him is hard.
It all depends on your team's composition.

Skarner has great ganks both before 6 and especially after. I have found that his camp clearing is actually faster or comparable to shyvana's. His shield keeps him high health, increases his move and attack speed and he has innate life steal. Once he is lvl 6, if you can get a good flash and supress it is almost a certain kill. I run move speed quints which add to his ganking ability and speed in jungle. His crystal slash will massacre people early and even harder after sheen. Not only that but his passive allows for him to gank with his ult, go farm and return to gank with his ult only 30 seconds later.
