Oceania Exclusive Tour
For those travelers who prefer an added measure of intimacy and flexibility, we are pleased to offer our new Oceania Exclusive tours. With a minimum of 10 guests and a maximum capacity of just 16 guests, each tour benefits from a higher level of personal attention and the added flexibility and agility that come from traveling in a small group.
Oceania Exclusive tours are available for a specially selected number of tours in almost every port we visit, in every corner of the world.
The drive from Livorno passes through the classic Tuscan countryside, a wonderful introduction to the beauty that awaits you in Florence. Upon arrival, you will enjoy a guided walking tour of the historical center, which has been deemed a pedestrian zone. Visit the magnificent complex of the Cathedral of Santa Maria dei Fiore, the famed Duomo, which lords over Florence. A treasure-trove of priceless masterpieces adorns the building, including sculptures by Donatello and Giotto's tour de force, the Campanile, or bell tower. After free time for lunch on your own, you will continue to Pisa for a self-guided tour around the Campo dei Miracoli, or Field of Miracles, which contains an assemblage of some of the world's finest architectural treasures. The magnificent Romanesque Campanile, better known as the Leaning Tower, was begun in 1173 by Bonanno Pisano and wasn't finished for nearly 200 years. It began to tilt as soon as the third level was completed because the settling sub-soil was unable to withstand the tower's weight. The nearby Baptistry, the largest of its kind in Italy, is known for its unusual acoustics, which you can test by singing from the middle of the floor.
Please note: On Sundays, no churches will be visited in the morning. Suitable attire is required to enter churches and monasteries, shorts and dresses above the knees are not permitted inside. The order of sites visited may vary. Guide service only in Florence. An official escort will be in the coach and will provide some information and maps. Ascending the tower in Pisa is not included in the tour as timing restrictions make this difficult to incorporate. During Bank Holidays most of the shops will be closed. This tour is not considered suitable for wheelchair guests or guests with mobility concerns.
NOTICE: All Oceania Cruises shore excursion fares are listed per person, and are subject to change and availability. Some tours are capacity controlled and may be withdrawn at any time without prior notice. Tour departure times are subject to change so please reference your actual tour ticket for the correct departure time. Minor children under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a an adult parent or guardian on all shore excursions.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (10/21/13) - Dr. Saundra Ardrey, head of WKU's Department of Political Science, organized a cultural excursion fall break for the African Experience classes. For the past five years, the department has co-sponsored a trip with InternationalStudent Office and English as a Second Language International to provide a deeper understanding of African American history in the United States.
During an Oct. 12 trip, a group of students visited the Rankin House in Ripley, Ohio. (Photo by Olivia Murphy, 10th grade student at South Warren High School)
"The Political Science Department leads programs with both domestic and international students in order to promote the goal of internationalization across campus. These programs provide opportunities to integrate different student constituencies and foster discussion and cross-cultural analysis. Internationalization is not just study abroad, it is also curricula and co-curricula activities," said Dr. Roger Murphy, Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science. "Furthermore, it provides a unique format for international students to integrate with Americans and discuss political and cultural topics that might be too sensitive in another setting. Topics such as the Underground Railroad invite both American and non-American students to not only deal with dark issues of the past but also examine such issues as freedom, democracy and economic exploitation in a current setting. International students are often surprised that museums and memorials are dedicated to negative aspects of American history and
culture, which is a starting point for further discussion and analysis. Finally, for all students, such programs are a lot of fun as well."
On Oct. 12, Dr. Murphy led an excursion to Ohio to give 50 students a first-hand look at the history of the Underground Railroad (UGRR). The group left Bowling Green early on Saturday morning headed for the National UGRR Freedom Center in Cincinnati. The bus was transformed into a rolling classroom as Dr. Murphy explained the background of the UGGR and the role that the state of Kentucky played in it. The group learned that the UGRR is one of the most powerful and sustained multiracial human rights movement in world history. Kentucky was central to the history of the UGRR because of its northern limit, the Ohio River. The river represented a more than three hundred mile boundary between slavery and freedom. Despite myths regarding the "mildness" of Kentucky slavery, 600 to 800 enslaved African Americans escaped from or through Kentucky each year between 1810 and 1860.
The group arrived at the Freedom Center around 10 a.m. This $110 million facility stands as the nation's newest monument to freedom. It brings to life the importance – and relevance – of struggles for freedom around the world and throughout history, including today. Made up of three buildings that symbolize the cornerstones of freedom – courage, cooperation and perseverance – the freedom center's curving architecture reflects the winding river and the often-changing path to freedom. The story of freedom is woven through the heroic legacy of the Underground Railroad and the American struggle to abolish human enslavement and secure freedom for all people.
The next stop on the trip was The Rankin House, a National Historic Landmark, in Ripley, Ohio. Here, Dr. Murphy described the significance of the Rankin House. John Rankin, a Presbyterian minister and educator who devoted much of his life to the antislavery movement, moved from Kentucky to Ripley in 1822 and later built a house on Liberty Hill overlooking the town, the river and the Kentucky shore. From there, he signaled escaping slaves with a lantern on a flagpole and provided them shelter. From 1825 to 1865 Rankin and his wife, Jean, with their Brown County neighbors, sheltered more than 2,000 slaves escaping to freedom, with as many as 12 escapees being hidden in the Rankin home at one time.
"I only had a brief introduction about slavery in my high school history class," said Suya Tan, Chinese scholar from Jiangsu Province in China. "After this trip, I felt and learned more things from the word FREE."

Facebook Thursday unveiled smartphone software that puts social-networking features front and center on a handset, stepping up efforts to boost sales of advertising on small screens.
The new software, which the company calls Home, makes it easier to access Facebook features — such as friends' photos, messages and status updates — on a smartphone's home screen, Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg said at an event in Menlo Park, Calif.
The application is available starting April 12 on Samsung Electronics and HTC phones that run Google's Android operating system.
Now that the majority of users access Facebook via mobile devices, Zuckerberg needs ways to keep them engaged longer while coaxing advertisers to pay to place promotions on small screens. The company is betting that handsets with Facebook-centric software will do a better job wooing users and marketers than current downloadable applications, Howe said.
"The problem with apps is they're a click away from wherever you are," said Carl Howe, an analyst at Yankee Group. "Facebook wants to remove that barrier."
HTC executives announced the HTC First device that will prominently feature Facebook's Home application. Ralph De La Vega, head of AT&T Inc.'s mobile business, said HTC First will run on his company's most advanced wireless network.
Home will have monthly updates, can be installed from Google Play, Google's online app store, and will be available on tablets in the coming months, Facebook said.
Facebook isn't building a smartphone or creating an operating system, Zuckerberg said.
Amazon.com uses a version of Android in the Kindle Fire tablet. In Amazon's case, that means bypassing Google's preloaded applications, such as Gmail, Google Maps and YouTube, which generate revenue for Google.
Software crafted by Facebook will more prominently display the social network on handsets and could challenge competitors such as Apple and Google for the attention of smartphone users, Howe said.

Everybody thinks they know Chris Christie. With his big mouth and bigger personality, the New Jersey governor has had no problem attracting national attention. But false narratives are already growing up around him - and are at risk of multiplying as we head toward the 2016 presidential race. So let's set the record straight on a few myths.
1. He's a RINO.
Yes, Christie has hung out with President Barack Obama - twice. The president's first visit, six days before the 2012 election, included the instantly famous bro-hug on the Atlantic City tarmac. During the second visit, in May, Christie high-fived Obama after a football-toss game and then joined him for a rally.
But Christie has governed New Jersey as a mostly by-the-book Republican. He refused to raise taxes on millionaires. He rejected a longtime allocation for Planned Parenthood clinics five times. And he provided $2.1 billion in subsidies and grants for corporations.
While the governor touts his bipartisan credentials, he doesn't agree with Democrats on their liberal causes: If it were up to him, there wouldn't be same-sex marriage (he vetoed a gay-marriage bill before dropping a futile court challenge), nor a higher minimum wage (he opposed a successful ballot measure raising it). Christie has also been vocal about the alleged scourge of public unions, and he bows to the education reform gods.
RINO (Republican in name only) watchers will say he hasn't rolled back gun-control laws, but New Jersey is so anti-gun that any such attempt would only destroy his political capital. And while he recently signed a bill allowing in-state tuition rates for illegal immigrants, so did Texas Gov. Rick Perry - and no one calls him a RINO.
2. He's a bully who can't keep his anger in check.

Fashion week at Lincoln Center may be over, but the fashion scene is still bustling in Chelsea. NY1's Jessica Abo filed the following report.
Taking the lead from models on the catwalk, kids strutted their stuff at petitePARADE. The bi-annual runway showcases the latest trends for kids from toddlers up to tweens.
"We're featuring five different designers today, ranging from sportwear-inspired designers all the way up to the luxury market," said Gina Rizzo, co-founder of petitePARADE.
Amber Sabathia's collection, CCandy, hit a home run.
"Everyone knows my husband is CC Sabathia," Sabathia said. "We have four children. I've been in the game going to multiple games, multiple all-star games. We went to the World Series, we won. There was one that was thing missing in baseball, and that was fun fashion colors, and so we took the logo and we put a splash of neon, a hypercolor, and you can also root for your team but also be very fashionable at the same time."
Over at Root Studio, London Fog is getting ready to unveil its first designer collection, called Reimagine the Rain.
Designers Cynthia Rowley, Badgley Mischka and Chris Benz are the names behind these outerwear collections for the London Fog label.
"We're just excited about it because Badgley Mischka is so known for evening gowns and red carpet glamour, and you don't see that on the street, so hopefully, we're going to see these on the streets of New York City and Hollywood and all the places we travel to," said designer James Mischka. "We're looking forward to seeing these on real women, real time.
"I grew up in Oregon, which is probably the rainiest state in this country. I remember my father as a child, every day, he threw on his London Fog raincoat. So for me, it was such an iconic brand," said designer Mark Badgley. "So when we had the possibility to work on a project with them, we got a real kick out of it."
"For me, it's sort of like, everybody has that great trench coat that they love. How can we update the shape and have it be both a throwback to kind of 1950s, great Mad Men London Fog, and then, a great modern print? And I love a floral," Benz said. "It's this funny, kind of oversized wallpaper floral that looks great, I think."
The rainwear is available online and in select department stores.
NY1 VIDEO: It's not just the designers that launch collections during Fashion Week. Richard Flores, the marketing director of Papyrus, spoke with NY1 about a new greeting card collection being launched in honor of the week.
The design duo Badgley Mischka is celebrating a special milestone in the fashion industry. NY1's Jessica Abo filed the following report.
Designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka are celebrating 25 years in business together.While they have surprises planned for the year for fall 2014 they're toasting to the richness of Vienna.
"We were inspired by Joseph Klimt and Josef Hoffman - Vienna - the turn of the last century about the opulence, the luxury," says Mischka.
The collection is full of copper, coffee and blush -- prints -- and stunning clutches and jewelry.
"It's really our embroideries that we've changed into jewelry. Everything is tied on with a silk ribbon or mesh," says Badgley.
The collection may be full of embellished pieces but this design duo says they tried to make everything lighter, so they don't slow down the modern woman on the move.
"Our brocades weigh ounces, you can pick up a gown it feels like a feather, we gilded all of our tweeds so they have a matte and shine," says Badgley.
Dancer Danielle Peaze says it's a winning combination.
"I think it's important because then you can stand with much better posture rather than feeling like your train is dragging you down," she says.
And if you're wondering what do with your hair, Peter Gray with Moroccanoil says you'll need mousse to nail the look.
"We looked at the paintings and wanted to get something painterly but wearable. We got these low sweeping side partings with a low sweeping bang," he says.

1 Frontier Frames
2008-D St. Michael's Drive
Founded by Jack Kirk in the 1970s, Frontier Frames began in a Sanbusco storefront before pioneering its way to a much larger warehouse-style workspace off of St. Michael's Drive. A repeat BOSF winner, Frontier has developed its positive reputation over 36 years by providing picture-perfect service to Santa Fe's finicky clientele.
Frontier continues to rack up accolades because of "trust and strong relationships with our clients," Ken Kirk, who took over ownership from his father, Jack, says. "Plus," he adds, "We like to think we are the best." Frontier offers a broad selection of framing for artists, galleries, interior design applications, and anyone who needs a little help protecting or beautifying their valuable pictures and artwork.
In addition to standard, two-dimensional framing, Frontier also sets and mounts ceramics and artifacts for the many galleries with which it has ongoing relationships. The bottom line, Kirk says, is striving to keep "serving the folks." (Casey Gallegos)

South America makes up the southern half of the Americas and a large part of Latin America. It's home to the world's longest mountain range, biggest waterfall and largest river -- even these mammoths pale in comparison to the stunning variety of life forms thriving in the rainforest.
To the northwest, off the coast of Ecuador, lie the Galapagos Islands, which are unique for hosting species not found anywhere else on earth. These were the subject of study for Charles Darwin in his theory of evolution, which he himself said will require proof in every single case.
The main languages in South America are Spanish and Portugese, which basically tells you which European countries colonized the place. The South American wars of independence took place over two decades in the early 19th century, led by Simon Bolivar of Venezuela and Jose san Martin of Argentina.
Following liberation from Portugal and Spain, South America took off into its own development, capitalizing on the rich deposits of oil, gold, copper, silver and tango musicians.
Brazil is the largest country in South America and home to one of the world's best parties, Carnaval. Have you heard of samba music? How about bossa nova? Maybe dancing for three days straight?
I can't say enough good things about South America. All the world's continents have amazing secrets and treasures laying in wait for your discovery, but in South America... just have a look at our pictures while you're waiting for online confirmation of your plane tickets to hit your inbox.

NEW YORK -- Joba Chamberlain and the Yankees have agreed on a one-year, non-guaranteed contract for 2013, avoiding salary arbitration.
Chamberlain, 27, will earn $1.875 million, representing a $200,000 raise from last season. The contract contains performance bonuses for games finished.
The right-hander missed the first four months of the 2012 season due to injury, going 1-0 with a 4.35 ERA and 22 strikeouts in 22 appearances. This was Chamberlain's third year of arbitration eligibility.
New York has two arbitration-eligible players remaining: righty David Robertson and lefty Boone Logan.
The Yankees have not been to arbitration since 2008, when they won their case against right-hander Chien-Ming Wang.

1 Wise Fool New Mexico
2778-D Agua Fria St.
Wise Fool New Mexico is more than just Hieronymus Bosch-like birdmen on stilts, personable puppets and swaths of brightly colored fabrics. "Circus is an inherently revolutionary art form," according to Katy Medley, managing director. This means all the stories told through tumbling, trapezes, stilts and puppets—which are "a great way to talk about social issues in a non-threatening way," Medley says—have larger themes. Sometimes these themes are expressed overtly with shows about issues such as domestic violence. Sometimes the messages are conveyed intrinsically, because people naturally tell stories that matter to them. Wise Fool New Mexico believes passionately that circus "supports an inherently just society" by enabling all kinds of storytellers, in all sorts of forms, in both workshops and year-round professional performances. It is this openness to the community, along with astounding visuals, that makes Wise Fool so clever and, yet, also so entertaining. (Caroline K Gorman)

We don't know who her parents were or what became of them, and she may been an orphan. Gertrude was raised in the Benedictine abbey of Saint Mary of Helfta, Eisleben, Saxony from age five. An extremely bright and dedicated student, she excelled in literature and philosophy, and when she was old enough, became a Benedictine nun. At age 26, when she had become too enamored of philosophy, she received a vision of Christ who reproached her; from then on she studied the Bible and the works of the Church Fathers. Gertrude received other visions and mystical instruction, which formed the basis of her writings. She helped spread devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Her writings have been greatly praised by Saint Teresa and Saint Francis de Sales, and continue in print today.

May my soul bless you, O Lord God my Creator, may my soul bless you. From the very core of my being may all your merciful gifts sing your praise. Your generous care for your daughter has been rich in mercy; indeed it has been immeasurable, and as far as I am able I give you thanks. I praise and glorify your great patience which bore with me even though, from my infancy and childhood, adolescence and early womanhood, until I was nearly 26, I was always so blindly irresponsible. Looking back I see that but for your protecting hand I would haven been quite without conscience in thought, word or deed. But you came to my aid by giving me a natural dislike of evil and a natural delight in what is good, and provided me with necessary correction from those among whom I lived. To make amends for the way I previously lived, I offer you, most loving Father, all the sufferings of your beloved Son, from that first infant cry as he lay on the hay in the manger, until that final movement when, bowing his head, with a mighty voice, Christ gave up his spirit. I think, as I make this offering, of all that he underwent, his needs as a baby, his dependence as a young child, the hardships of youth and the trials of early manhood. To atone for all my neglect I offer, most loving Father, all that your only-begotten Son did during his life, whether in thought, word or deed. And now, as an act of thanksgiving, I praise and worship you, Father, in deepest humility for you most loving kindness and mercy. Though I was hurrying to my eternal loss, your thoughts of me were thoughts of peace and not of affliction, and you lifted me up with so many great favors. Finally, you drew me to yourself by your faithful promises of the good things you would give me from the hour of my death. So great are these promises that for their sake alone, even if you had given me nothing besides, my heart would sigh for you always and be filled with a lively hope. - from the by Saint Gertrude
Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
O Sacred Heart of Jesus, fountain of eternal life, Your Heart is a glowing furnace of Love. You are my refuge and my sanctuary. O my adorable and loving Savior, consume my heart with the burning fire with which Yours is aflamed. Pour down on my soul those graces which flow from Your love. Let my heart be united with Yours. Let my will be conformed to Yours in all things. May Your Will be the rule of all my desires and actions. Amen. - Saint Gertrude

When the focus switches to halibut, some skippers like to drift-fish to cover more ground. While halibut will aggressively chase prey at times, they more often lie in ambush on the bottom, moving no more than a body length to intercept and inhale a bait. Drifting puts the bait in front of more halibut. At the height of the season, about half of the fish are caught while drift-fishing, says Thompson.
While Cavanaugh often drifts in shallower water — around 24 feet deep — close to the islands, drifting the squid grounds in deeper water usually produces bigger fish. "We will catch fish up to about 25 pounds close to the beach, but we find halibut twice that size out deeper," he says.
Fighting a Flatty
Most California halibut are hooked over featureless bottom, and the fish themselves don't make long runs, though they are known to uncork short bursts of speed during a fight.
More characteristically, they may suck themselves into the sand after inhaling the bait or use the current against their broad flanks to resist capture. They can also swim backward and may shake their gaping, toothy maw violently.
Fighting a flatty is a balancing act between maintaining even pressure and not crowding the fish too much, says Cavanaugh. Use a relatively light drag to let the halibut make a run if it wants to. Don't pump. It will make the fish want to shake its head, and with so many sharp teeth, it can saw through the line.
If you do it right, the fish won't even realize it is near the surface and may even come up vertically and virtually motionless. Don't lift the fish above the surface, or it may panic and start to thrash about. This is why a loose drag is critical. As the fish nears the surface, have crew standing by with a gaff to take the fish. Once it's aboard, laying it white side up will help keep it from getting too wild.
Southern California anglers have their fingers crossed for another record-setting season on halibut in the waters off the Channel Islands. Focus on the squid grounds, and you might be successful on even bigger 'buts this year.
What: Big California halibut.
When: May through July.
Where: Squid spawning grounds off Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa and San Miguel islands (outside the marine protected areas).
Who: Boating anglers with reliable craft from 23 feet up, as well as passenger-boat anglers. Here are three top passenger-boat captains who fish the Channel Islands.
Channel Islands Harbor
Capt. Joe Villareal
Ventura Harbor
Capt. Pat Cavanaugh
Pacific Dawn

Capt. Frank Ursitti
Ranger 85
Cavanaugh and Thompson prefer different setups. Thompson likes an 8-foot Calstar 196-8 rod with light monofilament line, 15- to 20-pound-test. Cavanaugh, on the other hand, recommends a 9- to 10-foot rod with 50-pound braided line. A small lever-drag reel such as the Avet SX works well, says Thompson.
Both agree that the bite from a halibut is subtle, and that's Cavanaugh's rationale for using braided line. "You can feel the fish slurp down a squid even at the end of a long cast," he explains. Thompson says experience has taught him to recognize the slight bump of a halibut bite even when he's fishing with monofilament.
Rods: 8- to 10-foot medium-action rods.
Reels: Lever-drag reels, such as the Avet SX or Okuma Cedros 10S.
Lines: 50-pound-test coated braid or 15- to 20-pound-test monofilament.
Baits and Rigs: Live or fresh-dead opalescent squid, fished one or two at a time on a hook.
Terminal Rigs: Lead-heads, 11⁄2 to 21⁄2 ounces, and dropper loops with 6/0 to 8/0 Owner Aki Twist hooks and 5- to 10-ounce torpedo sinkers.

Mayo Clinic in Minnesota has been recognized as one of the top Cancer hospitals in the nation for 2014-2015 by U.S. News & World Report.
Multiple myeloma is a cancer of your plasma cells, a type of white blood cell present in your bone marrow. Plasma cells normally make proteins called antibodies to help you fight infections.
In multiple myeloma, a group of plasma cells (myeloma cells) becomes cancerous and multiplies, raising the number of plasma cells to a higher than normal level. Since these cells normally make proteins (antibodies), the level of abnormal proteins in your blood also may go up. Health problems caused by multiple myeloma can affect your bones, immune system, kidneys and red blood cell count.
If you have multiple myeloma but don't have symptoms, your doctor may just monitor your condition. If you're experiencing symptoms, a number of treatments are available to help control multiple myeloma.

It is a fundamental human right enshrined in Articles 7 and 8 of the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Birth registration is the document that establishes legal identity of a child. It is also a prerequisite to the realization of a series human rights ensuring child's development and well-being, ensuring protection against abuse, exploitation, violence and statelessness. This film was produced by the Universal Birth Registration Working Group to which FI is active member.

Another Title Fight for Bernard Hopkins, this time it's Hopkins vs. Cloud for Cloud's IBF Light-Heavyweight Title. Most of us remember Cloud as getting the shit beaten out of him by Gabriel Campillo on a Don King show, only for King's fighter to get a terrible decision win. Cloud still owes Campillo a rematch, but that's beside the point.
I am not impressed with Cloud, he has power, but can be hit, and Bernard will rough him up and make him work, but King's fighter will get the close rounds, and maybe some rounds that aren't close anyway in a lot of mauling grabbing, ugly shit from Hopkins, who has resorted to dirty fighting and fouling more and more to extend his legacy. Bernard will probably lose around 115-113, 117-110 and 116-112 unanimously, call everybody racist, and storm of like a spoiled child to his dressing room like a kid who just got told he can't have the last piece of cake before supper. This fight will be boring and ugly, at least on paper.
Also,, bashing King's fighters historically does not give a fighter justice on the scorecards. However, I have a feeling that the decision will be fair. Hopkins just not doing enough, and the need by fighting ugly in spots to make it competitive.
Or, does Executioner pull a rabbit out of his ass one last time and give us a Pascal II type performance? The fight on which Bernard should have retired and could have gone out highly respected and praised. When Bernard wins, he can be good guy.
Boring fight? Average to OK fight? Or something more? Can Bernard create excitment again?

J.K. Rowling Updates with New Rubbish Bin Entries On India Religious Festival Controversy and MoreJKRowling.com
Our favorite author is doing some updating on her website today, including two new entries in her "rubbish bin" section of JKRowling.com. First, Jo addresses the matter of the lawsuit involving use of a Hogwarts castle replica in India around the time of a religious festival. JKR clarifies reports claiming that she pursued this matter that went to court, and explains:
"Recently there were a number of reports that Warner Bros. and I had taken legal action against religious charities in India because they constructed a Hogwarts castle as part of a Hindu festival. Here are the facts.The defendants were not religious charities, and theirs was not a religious celebration. On the contrary, it was a large-scale, commercial, sponsored event involving corporations that included a major Indian high street bank. The event was, however, set up while a Hindu festival was going on."
It was Warner Bros who brought the case, because the rights that were being infringed belong to them, not me. My name has to be attached to such proceedings as a legal technicality, because I am the underlying creator of Harry Potter series. Also due to a technicality, Warner Bros were obliged to claim damages as part of their claim. However, they waived this right, and neither sought nor obtained any financial compensation. It is completely false to assert that they, or I, were trying to take money from anybody, let alone two million rupees. The court ruled that Warner Bros. rights had indeed been infringed, and that events such as the one in question would need Warner Bros.' permission in the future. The court also restrained all the defendants from any future events infringing Warner Bros. rights.
Some of the news agencies and newspapers who misreported this story subsequently issued corrections and apologies, but the original, false story is still doing the rounds. In the immortal words of Mark Twain, 'a lie can get halfway around the world before the truth can even get its boots on.'
Also, Jo hilariously addresses some recent tabloid claims about her miraculously "rowling back the years " and other purported physical makeovers. Quotage:
"Apparently I've been 'Rowling back the years' (ho, ho). Yes, the secrets behind my new (ahem) health and beauty regime have been confided to a British newspaper by a 'friend'. Now, most people stop having imaginary friends once they're adults, but mine sometimes drop in on journalists to give them completely unrecognisable accounts of my life. My carbon-based friends, however, if asked whether I jog, do pilates and yoga, have a frozen forehead or refuse cake, might well suffer some kind of mirth-induced internal injury.
"It would be churlish not to thank the journalist concerned for saying that I look better now than I did in the early days of Harry Potter's success, and I am indeed grateful for the underlying compliment. In the interests of accuracy, however, I must point out that, far from losing weight, I've gained a good bit since the 'before' photographs featured in the article. So J K Rowling's top tip for today is: eat more. Perhaps my next project could be a revolutionary diet book?"Thanks Bel!

Really, you can't make this up. http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/mr-romneys-money-problem/2012/10/05/0a59b42e-0bf7-11e2-97a7-45c05ef136b2_story.htmlMr. Romneys money problemRegarding the Sept. 30 front-page article Romneys money trap:Mitt Romney asked a contractor (perhaps a small business) for an estimate to construct a walkway. When he learned what it would cost, he decided to build it himself with his sons help. In this one action, Mr. Romney unwittingly displayed who he really is.When my husband and I faced a similar construction project for our home, we did the calculations. We looked at the cost of the raw goods, the amount of time it would take us and our lack of professionalism in this arena. The economy was very bad then (2009), and we decided that we were fortunate enough to be able to pay someone to do the work. We did what every reasonable homeowner does: We got three estimates, then hired the firm we thought would do the work best and at the fairest price. (Note that I didnt say cheapest. Fair includes a measure of quality.) We watched as three young men worked hard over several days, earning their paychecks and giving us something we wanted in return. But by taking the little step of moving money from our bank account to that of the small business, we helped at least three people stay in their jobs (at least for the duration of our project), we received something in return, and we are all better off as a result.Is my bank account fatter as a result? No, of course not. Thats whats wrong with Mr. Romney. He thinks that having all the money in his account and cheating people out of jobs is a winning proposition.
Those that have money in the bank most likely kept it there by not spending it on something they could do for themselves.Makes no difference what the cost. A penny saved is a penny earned. A long forgotten statement in today's society.As an owner of a handyman company, it would surprise you to see how many jobs we do that the occupier of the house could physically do for themselves.
Illuminator is a good poster. He sticks to his guns and makes good points. Some don\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t like that.
Our government is usually willing to let predators loose on the consumer, provided the consumer is dumb enough to be willing and the politicians get their cut.

Dr. Rockzo, the Rock n Roll Clown, gets help from Dethklok to overcome his cocaine addition and come c-c-c-clean!
All Episodes
Season 1
In a legendary bad move, Dethklok decides to do standup comedy. Pickles remains traumatized by a heckler while the rest of Dethklok learns that comedy is all about embracing the hate. Dethklok finds that they are very much naturals at this. The physical comedy routine they work out really kills.
Uncomfortable and embarrassed, Dethklok painfully endures while their parents are in town for a visit. The guys are at first pissed and doubtful when their parents announce the release of their "Parents of Dethklok" album, but are then impressed by the depth of their parents' anger.
Performance Klok
Dethklok has a huge fight on stage, which prompts the record label to hire a performance coach to keep the band together. The band falls in love with therapy for all the wrong reasons.
Snakes 'n' Barrels
Pickles reunites with his old hair band, "Snakes 'N' Barrels", which has the rest of Dethklok worried that their drummer may leave them. When the ten-years-sober "Snakes 'N' Barrels" are given experimental psychotropic drugs before their performance, the result is something beyond brutal.
Dethklok has opened up their home for their annual Dethfan Day. Dethklok continues with their "normal" everyday activities (like liver transplant surgery and scrubbing toilets) while fans are ushered around the house, guided by an animated skull and a maze of velvet rope. Dethklok finds themselves in a sticky situation when two Internet geeks threaten to bring down Dethklok with their advanced Photoshopping skills.
Season 4
In an effort to make friends, Toki goes to Rockaroonie Fantasy Camp - a weekend getaway to rub elbows with rock and roll royalty (but he attends as a camper.) Instead of meeting friends, he is bullied by other campers and has no one to turn to but celebrity counselor, Magnus Hammersmith; ex-Dethklok guitarist with a troubled past. With Toki - the diabetic scaredy cat - out of Mordhaus, Skwisgaar and Murderface act out and over do it with candy and scary movies.

I lost track of how many brands of small-to-medium packs I accumulated, looking for the perfect ONE bag. I think I've found it in the Wanderer.
It's my woodland "photo bag," with whatever extra clothes I have along serving as padding for the cameras. The several pockets nicely isolate water bottle, GPS, and whatever else I chose to take along that morning.
I hate to use the word "perfect," but the Wanderer might just be the one bag that comes closest to deserving the title.

For years I used an old Army canvas backpack for deer hunting. When it finally wore out I wanted a good canvas pack. The Wanderer is Perfect. It holds everything I need to travel in the woods by foot or canoe, and to shoot my flintlock rifle.

I have used this pack for field archaeology every day for the past 4 years, and have put it through more abuse and use than any other bag has ever held up through, and the Wanderer hasn't hardly flinched. co-workers have gone through 3 or 4 bags in the time since I have picked it up. It fits a nicely equipped first aid kit in the front pocket as well as water bottles and various do-dads in the sides. The strap closer allows for tossing a tarp or coat under the flap for quick, easy access without having to open the whole bag up, and they will not blow out in the middle of a trip the way zippers can when they get dirty or worn out, or if you overload a bag. All in all a wonderful pack!!

- don't use with laptops and hard-cover books!
- Rating
I purchased a Wanderer in Nov. 2005. I'd been using it as a daily carry, though I often skip bringing a backpack all together. Lasted a total of three years being used approx. every other day to carry loads of 15 lbs or less. Pack ended up busting through completely along one of the bottom seams while carrying my laptop. I was definitely not a happy camper, as you can imagine. In the three years I was using the pack, the join between a shoulder strap and the bag had begun to wear and rip, eventually making it completely unusable.
In addition to the reliability problems the bag also has ergonomic problems, at least when being worn by me. This is especially the case when significantly full; when half full of clothes it bulges out. Even when carefully packed, the pack ends up riding really high. These factors make it a pretty uncomfortable pack to wear for most any length of time.
My recommendation is to stick with DP's more traditional packs for portaging and products by other manufacturer's for backpacks and day packs. The zippered day pack holds up a lot better, at the expense of ~10 L.

I'm a bag whore. I own more pieces of luggage - bags, totes, suitcases, backpacks, duffles - than anyone could ever justify, even as a frequent traveler and outdoor enthusiast. This is my favorite, bar none. Weekend at Mom and Dad's? Easy. Business trip? Couple changes of clothes, toothbrush, laptop, and a book. Done. Commuter? Everything for the work day plus a stop at the market on the way home. Oh yeah, and camping. Absolutely gorgeous pack that will likely never wear out and subtly says "I can handle anything because my priorities are correct." Aces all around - can't recommend it highly enough.

I use this pack on a variety of camping trips and it has always fulfilled my needs whatever they may be. It is comfortable and very stylish to wear. i wouldn't trade anything for my wanderer pack.

Christ said, judge not lest ye be judged. Modern Christians do little else but judge other people.
Christ said, pray silently, or you're a hypocrite. Modern Christians are in favor of public prayer in the schools.
On the other hand, modern Christians rave about sex, birth control, "dirty" words, and abortion, subjects on which Christ said absolutely nothing.
Yeah, I know, there are a lot of good, quiet Christians out there, but you never see them on tv or talk radio.

Like that perfect pair of jeans, we're looking for that perfect fit for our company. We are seeking strong, passionate leaders with dedication, a desire to succeed in a retail setting, and a goal-oriented attitude to enter our Store Manager in Training (MIT) program. Are you a fit for us?
All applicants must be able to commit to a four month "in-store" training program which entails relocation to any one of our 173 stores in 26 states for the training portion. Upon completion of the program, MIT will again relocate and be placed in a Store Management position.
As a Manager in Training (MIT), you will have the exciting opportunity to learn what it takes to manage a store of your own. You will learn how to coach, lead, and drive sales through staffing, training, and developing your team.
Within this program, you will acquire the following responsibilities and learn to:
• Identify, recruit, and manage others who have the same passion for selling fashion
• Provide daily coaching and clear expectations to train and direct your team to exceed customer expectations
• Understand and identify sales opportunities to increase sales volume
• Meet and exceed store sales metrics and shrink goals established by the company
Upon successful completion of our four month training program, you will be ready to manage one of your own stores solo!
Qualifications & Benefits
We are looking for strong leadership and retail sales experience. All candidates must be 18 years of age or older with a High School degree or GED equivalent. Relocation required.
We offer a generous starting pay and paid temporary housing packages during training, as well as a great discount, fun work environment, and additional benefits.
