Gay Rights Activists Join Campaign to Save Historic Soho Townhouse
It turns out that the federal-style rowhouse at 186 Spring Street has lots of friends in high places. Unfortunately, it may not have made them soon enough.
Today, in the latest bid to save the Soho townhouse from demolition, gay rights activists and local politicians rallied in front 186 Spring Street, highlighting the building's role in gay rights and AIDS activism. The house served as a kind of gay commune for activists and organizations in the 1970s and early 1980s. Read More

Coalition of Evangelicals launches ad campaign in key congressional districts
Tuesday - 8/20/2013, 7:50pm  ET
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A coalition of Evangelical groups, including the Southern Baptist Convention, hopes to give an earful to key congressional lawmakers about immigration reform.
The Evangelical Immigration Table, formed last year, has launched a $400,000 radio ad campaign in 56 congressional districts. The ads will feature local pastors and national voices encouraging passage of immigration reform without delay. Dr. Barrett Duke of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics and Religious Liberties Commission says the ads will air for two weeks "at saturation rates."
Pastor Felix Cabrera of Oklahoma City's Quail Creek Baptist Church says the collateral damage of the current policy that he has seen includes the detention and separation of parents from children born in the U.S.
And Amarillo, Texas, pastor Stan Coffey says Evangelicals should let their voices be heard on the issue and that he believes "this is what Jesus would have done if he were here."

A selection of reader comments from our Facebook page last week:
On a story about dozens being charged in a counterfeit check scheme in Virginia:
• It's a sad, sick world! — Mae E.
On a column asking if Big 12 athletics are worth the cost:
• No! — Brian W.
• Always better to be a big frog in a little pond than a little frog in a big pond — Steven T.
On a story about a fatal accident at Nemours:
• Praying for this family — Mary M.
• So sad — Susan M.
• So sorry to lose such a sweet girl. Please pray for her children and her family. I know she had some awesome friends that are going to miss her a bunch — Jeremy B.
On what you think of Gov. Tomblin's prison reform bill, which mandates that non-violent offenders be released six months early into supervised programs:
• So much for the Pill Initiative ... — Jim D.
• I think he's an idiot ... Of course I thought that way before he did this, so there you go — Karen H.
• I see no reason to be jailing non-violent offenders in the first place ... — Jonathan S.
• I think it needs to be decided on a case-by-case basis. Also, if it is a repeat offender are they only going to look at the last crime they committed to end up there again, or are they going to look at their entire history? They may not have committed a violent crime the last time, but could have previously — Teresa D.
On a story about a proposed space mission and if you and your spouse could survive a 501-day trip to Mars in a cramped capsule:
• No — Donna M.
• No — Pam B.
• Heck no — Shelly M.
• 501 days! — Lisha R.
• Nope! We would be divorced before we got back to earth! LOL — Mae E.
• Yes, We have worked together for 10 years, 365 days a year, sometimes 16 hour days — 501 days ... no problem! LOL! — Marie B.
On a YouTube video of Senator Joe Manchin attempting to clarify his gun position:
• It's funny to actually hear him lie on that video. In both letters I got from him he clearly states he is a supporter in all "nobama" wants to do with gun control, stating that as a dad and grandfather he will make the decision he sees best. No matter what he votes or proposes I will decide what I will keep to protect my family! Manchin, you are a liar! — Matthew B.
• It is disappointing to see him turn on the people that elected him to represent them to climb the political ladder — Ruth S.
• Too late Joe. You underestimated your constituents. We're not stupid and you will learn next time you're up that we know what the Second Amendment is really about. It isn't about hunting, Joe — Dale R.
• The Second Amendment is about the necessity of establishing and arming a well-regulated militia to put down insurrections and rebellions — Bill M.
• ... it is also for protection from a tyrannical government, repelling invasions, facilitating a natural right of self-defense ... among others — Matt H.
On a poll question asking if West Virginia lawmakers should make more robust fireworks (such as Roman candles) legal:
• No, because in this area we have a lot of fields that can catch fire in a matter of minutes, especially in a drought — Amanda S.
• Might as well, because people just go out of state and purchase them anyway — tax revenue that the state is losing — Robert Y.
• No, there are already too many accidents — Susie H.
• Who cares — Ed M.
• Yes — Danny L.
• With all of West Virginia's challenges, I can't even believe this is an issue. Seriously? — Donna G.
On a story about a proposed bill that would let police, with reasonable cause, compel blood samples from motorists suspected of driving under the influence of drugs:
• It's a great way to tell if someone has been taking drugs, but a lot of them stay in your system for a long time. Doesn't prove you were driving under the influence though — Jamie L.
• Look at the Fourth Amendment ... with so many on the right jumping to protect the Second Amendment why do they support the rape of the Fourth and 24th? — Rick T.
• Most are very good policemen and women, but the few who are not would abuse power, so not even for the risk of one abuse can this pass, ever! It could be used as a tool for abuse, and not to mention against our rights — Drew F.
On a story about the horse meat scandal in Europe and the chances of it happening in the U.S.:
• With all of the nasty things people put into their bodies (smoking, fast food, Mountain Dew, etc.), I think it's amusing that people recoil in "horror" over horse meat — Michael W.
• At least it's identifiable as an animal. Gotta be better for you than "green slime." People eat cows, pigs, deer, bear, squirrel, rabbit, etc. ... why scoff at a little horse meat — Scott H.
• Would not be surprised and wouldn't care. Why cry over horse meat when we have wood (cellulose), high fructose corn syrup and pink slime added to most of our food. I'd rather eat some horse than a hot dog, which may taste great but is as healthy for you as a car tire — Joe H.

Celebrate Astronomy Day!
April 20th is Astronomy Day, when hundreds of organizations worldwide host special family-oriented events and festivities that showcase the wonder and excitement of the night sky.
Doug Berger, former president of the Astronomical Association of Northern California, founded this annual event in 1973 as a high-profile way of drawing public attention to the science and the hobby through exhibits and activities at urban centers. Since then the celebration has mushroomed in size and scope. Hundreds of astronomy clubs, observatories, museums, colleges, and planetariums worldwide now host special family-oriented Astronomy Day events and festivities. Some organizations extend their activities over an entire week.
Astronomy Day has traditionally been celebrated between mid-April and mid-May, on the Saturday closest to the first-quarter Moon. In 2013 it falls on April 20th. (An alternate date is October 13th.) However, local organizers often host events on other dates that better suit their needs, or to accommodate a special event like an eclipse, planetary alignment, or bright comet.
Why Participate?
This event is a great way for your club to gain visibility in your community. Having the public look through telescopes and at your displays spreads interest in astronomy throughout the general public and might even attract new members to your club. It provides a platform for discussing light pollution an issue that should concern everyone. Perhaps most important, Astronomy Day is great morale-booster for you and your fellow club members. It brings people together for a day of sharing their love of the sky with others.
If you don't belong to an astronomy club and want to find a local club or planetarium that might be hosting an Astronomy Day celebration, check out our directory of clubs, observatories, planetariums, and science museums in North America, Europe, and Australia/New Zealand.
To assist organizations and individuals in planning Astronomy Day programs, the Astronomical League and Sky & Telescope have prepared a fact-filled Astronomy Day Handbook. Written by David H. Levy and updated by Gary Tomlinson, the 76-page guide offers time-tested suggestions for conducting large and small endeavors. It also includes the rules and entry forms for the Sky & Telescope Astronomy Day Award, prizes given annually to the groups whose programs do the best job of "Bringing Astronomy to the People."
The Astronomy Day Handbook is available for free as an 850-kilobyte Adobe PDF file.
The Astronomical League maintains the official Astronomy Day Web page, which describes the event's background and where to find an Astronomy Day activity in your area. Additional listings can be found through the Night Sky Network.
Also available for printing and handing out is our ever-popular Good Neighbor Outdoor Lighting flyer, a clear, simple info sheet on light pollution and how anyone can minimize it. It's a 164-kilobyte PDF file.

Wendy Knowler fights for your rights...
It's all very well for the government to fuss about whether courts are implementing the constitution properly. But what are government departments doing to make sure their staff understand and implement the law, particularly the constitution and bill of rights?
Officials of the Department of Home Affairs, for example, appear to believe they may ignore court orders when it comes to people who, in their view, should not be allowed into SA. Now the high court in Cape Town is trying to ensure that the department trains its officers properly so that they understand the law – and their obligations to obey court orders.
This week an unrelated judgment against the Minister of Safety and Security became available, showing that a key law developed to guard against domestic violence is still not understood and implemented properly by police.
The judge, Mohini Murugasen, of the high court in Durban, called it a matter of "great concern" that despite many years since the law had been promulgated in 1999, police who are supposed to carry out the provisions of the law are still not being trained how to do the job.
She was dealing with a civil claim brought by Musawenkosi Khanyile against the minister and a police inspector, Muzi Gumede, for wrongful arrest and detention. Khanyile claims more than R165 000 but the court first had to establish whether the police were in fact liable.
Khanyile's girlfriend was granted an interim protection order in Durban's Magistrate's Court on January 5, 2007, that said he was not to threaten, harass emotionally or physically abuse her.
As usual in such cases, a warrant for his arrest was authorised but its execution was suspended. This makes it easier for the warrant to be invoked and used to arrest a partner who later infringes such an order.
Three weeks after she had obtained the order she went to Durban central police station. She gave Gumede a copy of the warrant, complained that Khanyile had breached the order and asked that he be arrested.
She did not give Gumede a copy of the interim protection order – she had forgotten to bring it but arranged to deliver it later – nor did she make an affidavit about what led to her asking that the warrant be |executed.
Khanyile was nevertheless arrested that afternoon, and released on bail the following evening. When the matter came to court, however, the state declined to prosecute, saying Khanyile's behaviour did not infringe the protection order.
When Khanyile later sued, Judge Murugasen had to decide whether his arrest was lawful given the defects in procedure.
How could Gumede have had reasonable grounds to suspect the girlfriend would suffer "imminent harm" as a result of Khanyile's alleged breach of the order when Gumede did not have a copy of the order nor an affidavit by her explaining how he had disobeyed the order? Without this basic information could Gumede have acted "as a prudent and reasonable" police officer in making the arrest?
Judge Murugasen agreed that the police officer should have had the relevant documents before making the arrest. But why were Gumede and others in his position still not being given training about how to deal with protection orders and avoid such basic mistakes, she asked.
Gumede made what the judge called a very valid comment: police were frequently criticised for not acting quickly in matters of domestic violence. Quoting a recent case, she said Gumede was correct that because police failed to act urgently, women became victims of serious acts of violence despite obtaining protection orders.
Untrained police weren't able to appreciate the role they were required to play or to balance the rights of the parties involved. This also affected the interests of the public who were at risk of unlawful arrest and detention as in this case. In addition, "public resources are depleted as a result of litigation" following unlawful police conduct.
Khanyile sued the minister and Gumede jointly, but the judge said because the police officer had not been trained in domestic violence laws it would be unfair to order that he should contribute towards whatever compensation Khanyile is awarded in a later hearing.
As the judge pointed out, it's unacceptable that police aren't trained in how to deal with this law. All those women needing protection against violent partners are let down by this failure.
And in addition, funds that could be used elsewhere are gobbled up in litigation when the police make mistakes.

E. Howell, associate professor of physical education,
has been named the College's Raymond W. Greene Chair of
Health and Physical Education. The Chair was established
in 1967 by Raymond W. Greene, who stipulated that the
chairholder should encourage reverence for the "Amazing
Creation of the Human Body and Its Functions."
"My scholarly interests have dramatically changed
through the years, with the chair providing the impetus
for my becoming a sport sociologist and supporting the
research and development behind the courses I teach,"
said Howell. "Were it not for a modest stipend that
accompanies this honor, I would not be able to gather
the data, nor engage in the travel that has allowed me
to study both in the United States and in Europe."
A member of the Rollins faculty for 29 years, Howell
received his bachelor's degree from Western Carolina
University, his master's in teaching from Rollins
College, and his Ed.D. from Highland University. His
current area of research is focused on the "figurational
dynamics of racial stratification of sport in the United
States." Howell teaches interdisciplinary courses
related to sport in society from a sociological
perspective. He is a member of the national faculty of
the United States Sports Academy.

I can't see how this happened. By all logic, there was supposed to be no lynch. I rather think there was either a lynch redirect, or ability to reflect the lynch to a random player that happened to be mafia. .-.
Wow, just what happened. o.o
The wording for the update - 'lynched' - seems to indicate that he wasn't killed, but was lynched after receiving more votes than anyone else. Lynch redirect sounds perfect, but some sort of strong vote redirect could have done it too. :/

Sooo, now what are we gonna do? Is there any thing we can really get from him on day one?
No no no, I call Pink. Pink is love, and a humanitarian like me loves people
There's not really anything to go off of. Day 1 was mostly random voting and the only ones who were accused of mafia was me accusing Zenax and vice versa which ended up me nearly getting lynched.
Hopefully Fresa will come on and explain it to us.
Given that Fresa is aware of what's going on. Wonder if it's related to her role in the first place. :/
Friend Safari Info: Flying (Pidgey, Hoothoot, Fletchfinder)
I think Fresa has made it very clear that she's not going to explain what happened.
Take note that PkmnGreen was the first one to "random vote" Croagus, and Fresa specifically targeted Croag to for the experiment knowing that Croag would not die. PkmnGreen died instead. I don't think this is a coincidence.
That's nice.
Actually Buoy was the first person to vote me; PkmnGreen was the second and the last after he replaced his vote again. I don't have any knowledge as to what happened, why when I was supposed to be lynched it got redirected to another. Can't really explain anything there, but at least we got a mafia!

"They must be underworld forces then!"
"Haha Pitty-Pat, no, these are not my underworld forces either." Hades replied.
"Hades! Well if they're not yours either, then what are they?"
"I know what they are! These are the Aurum, an alien race that destroys planets that are on the verge of destruction. All your fighting must have lured them here!"
"And you are?"
"I am the sun god Pyrrhon! Don't worry, I will take care of everything! See ya later!"
"Pyrrhon, that's not how the script goes. You're supposed to help us defeat the Aurum, not do it by yourself."
"Yeah well, according to the script Pandora is not the first commander to go down either. Time to one-shot the Aurum! Would could possibly go wrong?"
It is now day 2.
Aww, that could've come in handy later...
Aww. I wonder what his hidden ability was.....?

Why Is Early Childhood Hearing Screening Important For Your Child?
Everyday in the United States, approximately 1 in 1,000 newborns (or 33 babies every day) is born profoundly deaf with another two to three out of 1,000 babies born with partial hearing loss, making hearing loss the number one birth defect in America. Many studies have shown that early diagnosis of hearing loss is crucial to the development of speech, language, cognitive, and psychosocial abilities. Treatment is most successful if hearing loss is identified early, preferably within the first month of life. Still, one in every four children born with serious hearing loss does not receive a diagnosis until age three or older.
Why is it Important to Have My Baby's Hearing Screened Early?
The most important time for a child to be exposed to and learn language is in the first three years of life. In fact, children begin learning speech and language in the first six months of life. Research suggests that those who have hearing impairment and get intervention have better language skills than those who don't. The earlier you know about deafness or hearing loss, the sooner you can make sure your child benefits from strategies that will help him or her learn to communicate.
How Early Should I Have My Baby's Hearing Screened?
The first opportunity to test a child's hearing is in the hospital shortly after birth. If your child's hearing is not screened before leaving the hospital, it is recommended that screening be done within the first month of life. If hearing loss is suspected, make sure an otolaryngologist orders tests for your baby's hearing by three months of age. If hearing loss is confirmed, it's important to consider the use of hearing devices and other communication options by six months of age.
Is Early Hearing Screening Mandatory?
In 2003, more than 85 percent of all newborns in the United States were screened for hearing loss. In fact, some 39 states have passed legislation requiring some form of hearing screening of newborns before they leave the hospital. This still leaves more than a million babies who are not screened for hearing loss before leaving the hospital.
How Is Screening Done?
Two tests are used to screen infants and newborns for hearing loss. They are:
Signs of Hearing Loss in Children
Hearing loss can also occur later in childhood, after a newborn leaves the hospital. In these cases, parents, grandparents, and other caregivers are often the first to notice that something may be wrong with a young child's hearing. Even if your child's hearing was tested as a newborn, you should continue to watch for signs of hearing loss including:
• Not reacting in any way to unexpected loud noises
• Not being awakened by loud noises
• Not turning his/her head in the direction of your voice
• Not being able to follow or understand directions
• Poor language development
• Speaking loudly or not using age-appropriate language skills
If your child exhibits any of these signs, report them to your doctor.
What Happens If My Child Has Hearing Loss?
Hearing loss in children can be temporary or permanent. It is important to have hearing loss evaluated by a physician who can rule out medical problems that may be causing the hearing loss, such as otitis media (ear infection), excessive earwax, congenital malformations, or a genetic hearing loss. If it is determined that your child's hearing loss is permanent, hearing aids may be recommended to amplify the sound reaching your child's ear. Ear surgery may be able to restore or significantly improve hearing in some instances.
For those with certain types of profound hearing loss who do not benefit sufficiently from hearing aids, a cochlear implant may be considered. Unlike a hearing aid, a cochlear implant bypasses damaged parts of the auditory system and directly stimulates the hearing nerve and allows the child to hear louder and clearer sound.
You will need to decide whether or not your deaf child will communicate primarily with oral speech and/or sign language, and seek early intervention to prevent language delays. Research indicates that habilitation of hearing loss by age six months will prevent subsequent language delays. Other communication strategies such as auditory verbal therapy, lip reading, and cued speech may also be used in conjunction with a hearing aid or cochlear implant, or independently.
Is My Baby's Hearing Normal?
If you think that your child has hearing loss, you might be right. The following checklist will assist in determining whether or not your child might have a hearing loss. Please read each item carefully and check only those factors that apply to you, your family or your child.
During pregnancy did...
□ Mom have German measles, a viral infection, or flu?
□ Mom drink alcoholic beverages?
Did your newborn baby (birth to 28 days of age)...
□ Weigh less than 3.5 pounds at birth?
□ Have an unusual appearance of the face or ears?
□ Have jaundiced (yellow skin) at birth and had and exchange blood transfusion?
□ Stay in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for more than five days?
□ Receive an antibiotic medication given through a needle in a vein?
□ Have meningitis?
□ Fail newborn hearing screening test?
Did your infant baby (29 days of age to two years)...
□ Received an antibiotic medication given through a needle in a vein?
□ Have meningitis?
□ Have a neurological disorder?
□ Have a severe injury with a fracture of the skull with or without bleeding from the ear?
□ Have recurring ear infection with fluid in ears for more than three months?
Does one or more individual(s) of your family...
□ Have permanent or progressive hearing loss that was present or developed early in life?
Response to the Environment (Speech and Language Development)
My Newborn (Birth to 6 months)...
□ Does not startle, move, cry or react in any way to unexpected loud noises
□ Does not awaken to loud noises
□ Does not freely imitate sound
□ Cannot be soothed by voice alone
□ Does not turn his/her head in the direction of my voice
My Young Infant (6 through 12 months)...
□ Does not point to familiar persons or objects when asked
□ Does not babble or babbling has stopped
□ By 12 months is not understanding simple phrases us as "wave by-bye," "clap hands" by listening alone
My Infant (13 Months through two Years)...
□ Does not accurately turn in the direction of a soft voice on the first call
□ Is not alert to environment sounds
□ Does not respond on first call
□ Does not respond to sounds or does not locate where sound is coming from
□ Does not begin to imitate and use simple words for familiar people and things around the home
□ Does not sound like or use speech like other children of similar age
□ Does not listen to TV at a normal volume
□ Does not show consistent growth in the understanding and the use of words to communicate
If your child has one of more of these indicators you should take him or her to a physician, preferably an otolaryngologist, for an ear examination and a hearing test. This can be done at any age, as early as just after birth.

SCAM alert- gunlistings.org
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=291389380 and then created a fake listing at http://www.gunlistings.org/colorado-...s__.357_magnum I contacted the person and they sent me a fake military ID and asked me to send a $1200 money order to NAME: DANIELLE GAMACHE ADDRESS: 302 S.RUSSELL St. Apt #3 CITY: AVA STATE: ILLINOIS ZIPCODE: 62907 and called my prepaid cell with a number that came up gave the phone number : 314-338-4617. He called my cell phone with that phone number so apparently it is a working number, I'm sure a prepaid cell impossible to track. I called the county sheriff and the deputy I spoke with said they don't have the manpower to pursue it. I asked the guy to take a photo of himself holding up his phone number and I would run right out to my bank that is open on Sunday and get a money order, hopefully his greed will overcome his common sense and I will be able to post a photo of this thief. Be on the lookout for anyone using any combination of these credentials.Whatever you do though, don't let your sense of decency or justice prompt you to call that cell phone at all hours of the night, that wouldn't be very nice. |

Did you report him to Gunbroker and Gunlistings?
And maybe the Department of the Army and Homeland Security. Using a fake military ID is real serious business anymore!! Postol inspectors might have an interest too since he wants you to mail him a check. Also, look at the guys other auction listings. http://www.gunlistings.org/user-view.php?emailid=19932 He lives all over the country! rc

Your local sheriff's office may not have the manpower but Army CID (Criminal Investigations Division) probably will. They do have the capacity and authority, as well as a strong interest, to go after the perp whether civilian or military based upon his use of the purported military ID.
Either call the Army post nearest you or try these: http://www.cid.army.mil/units_conus.html It is a listing of all CID commands nationwide.

I also noticed on Gunlistings.org there is no way to view the sellers feedback from previous sales.
I would avoid an auction site that doesn't show seller feedback ratings like the plague!!! rc

Motega: I can`t agree more on calling the CID. The Cid has helped me many times and they have the resources to presue this matter at a different level than local or state lawenforcement. I will be very surprised if they will not help you. The CID has helped me many times and there many talents are just outstanding. Just call your nearest ARMY POST and ask to speak to them.

I know my military ID didn't have "Geneva Convention Identification" on it. unless that is something new that would have been the first thing that I noticed. the fact that it had a woman's name for what looks like a guy unless it is pronounced different.

Maybe they removed it for awhile? |

I am going to follow up as suggested with CID... unfortunately for this guy I just had back surgery and have all the time in the world to track him down. I asked for the photo of him holding his phone number and he said he wasn't at home "so I had my wife do it". This is going to the sheriff in the AM and I will start the ball rolling with other authorities. It is possible this is in fact the scammer, or it could be a naive (or not so innocent) friend. Hopefully I'll get another photo out of him and maybe the local sheriff can put the 2 faces together somehow.

it really "Grinds my gears" (to steal an expression from Peter Griffin) that he emailed about a half dozen other photos showing the same soldier he is pretending to be. On base, etc. If you Google "fake military ID" the same person is shown in a bunch of photos. It's especially shameful that someone is using the likeness of a man in our military to commit these acts of fraud. I don't want to upload the other photos to further spread his face around the internet. Gunlistings has blocked his IP and address and he didn't respond to my second request for a photo of himself but I'll try again to get him to send another photo.

Y'all are pointing out inconsistencies that was reported before so it's the same scam. When you mentioned gunlistings then I remembered where it came from, this is it.
Good goings guys but I don't understand why he wasn't busted already. They said they were going to get him. Turned out he's still scamming but a pic of his wife(?) with the phone no is a new one. |

My current I'd card has a bar code of some sort on the back it's one of the things they look at when I go on base.
But unless things have changed a bunch that Geneva card isn't used as id.

This guy is terrible at fake IDs, luckily for the people he's trying to scam. I see at least 6 things wrong with his ID right off the bat. The big tip offs are the rank/pay grade mismatch and the issue date vs the expiration date (a real ID isn't good for anywhere near the 9 years on his).
There's other differences with the newer IDs I won't bother mentioning. Just for the lulz, ask him to send you a DA31 with his digital signature on it. Last edited by happygeek; June 18, 2012 at 12:37 AM. |

Definition of lacertilian in English:
Syllabification: lac·er·til·i·anPronunciation: /ˌlasərˈtilēən, -ˈtilyən
- A reptile of the suborder Lacertilia; a lizard.More example sentences
- Among prehistoric lacertilians were the gecko Ardeosaurus and the monitor Megalania.
- Supposed lacertilian tracks have been reported from a single site in the Navajo.
- This page gives you lots of information, with pictures, of the various kinds of lacertilians.

- Of greatest interest here, however, is the function of the lacertilian mesotarsal joint.
- In this pattern the tarsus of diadectids most closely approximates the lacertilian mesotarsal joint in structure and probable function.
- Therefore, following the convention used by Rewcastle, the immobile, unified lacertilian crus-astragalocalcaneum will be referred to here as simply the crus.

Teenage Departures
Teenage Departure Holidays
Our Group holidays usually cater for children from 5 years old. However, experience tells us that children tend to prefer mixing with their own age groups, especially teenagers. That's why we've designated certain departures on our group trips as particularly recommended for teenagers. Whilst we don't restrict younger kids from joining these holidays, the 'recommended for teenagers' departures means there are likely to be other teenagers to share the experience with. Please look out for the logo on our Family holidays or ask a member of our sales team for more information. If you would like to go on a Family holiday where the minimum age is 11, take a look at our dedicated Teenage Adventures.
