Mega THIK Hair Building Fibers
Based on 61 Reviews
KellyMega ThikPreviously, I was using Topik. The Topik would smear and rub off on anything it touched. It was sloppy. I hated it. This product goes on as a fine powder. Once its combed in, I can even rub my hands across it constantly and theres no mess. It comes off only when I shower. Its a natural product and I have been extremely pleased with it. Every so often you find a product that really does what it says it will do. This is one and it also happens to do it much better than the others out there. Now,to be clear I am the kind of person who will put out an email blast on a scam product. However, I also believe in giving credit for a really great product and this is a really great product.1 out of 1 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

Stone Fat & Happy Buddha Statue 4"
Item # 67vc13
Price: $19
Please take a minute and click here to tell us about your experience with Lotus Sculpture, our customer service and how you like your statue. We appreciate your feedback!
Buying these Ganeshas were a dream of mine for so long and I'm glad I did. Kyle was absolutely wonderful to deal and my Ganeshas came rather quickly and beautifully packaged. They are treasures on my altar and already I'm thinking of my next purchase. Thank you Lotus Sculpture for your wonderful service.Reviewer:Aman Pillay (Auckland, Auckland, NZ)
I have been looking at this statue for years, and knew deep down that I wanted to add it to my collection of other Lotus Sculpture statues. This antique statue is unique (estimated to be between 50 and 200 years old) and was offered to me at such a special discount that I felt overwhelmed when I opened the box, carefully packaged by Kyle and his team. When I looked at Goddess Meenakshi I smiled, because her nose is slightly crooked just like mine! I knew immediately that I am part of her and she is part of me. She is now sitting proudly on a dresser beside another antique statue of Shiva. Their respective heights are perfect. The love couple is complete! Thanks to Lotus Sculpture and Kyle Tortora for his generosity and for giving me this one chance opportunity to be connected to what is close to my heart. May Lotus Sculpture be prosperous!Reviewer:Jenny Wolkowicki (Roselle Park, NJ, US)
In all of my interactions with the owner of Lotus Sculpture, I experienced respectful communication, clear organization and overall excellent customer service. Thank you. I love the piece I bought from you.Reviewer:Amy Nosek (Bowen Island, British Columbia, CA)
Kyle with Lotus Sculpture, worked with us to find the best situation for our new swimming pool. We purchased two beautiful Buddha Heads that now stand on our pool columns overlooking the pool. Beautiful!!! We'll continue to shop here for more special Buddha's.Reviewer:David A. Kress (Chandler, AZ, US)
LOVE IT. I can feel the energy of it. VERY BEAUTIFUL! Thank you! Namaste, FabienneReviewer:Fabienne Diaz (Chapel Hill, North Carolina, US)
This Buddha is going to be a gift and it will make a lovely gift. It arrived on time and well packed. Good job.Reviewer:Angus Vail (Salem, OR, US)
We have been shopping at Lotus Sculpture for a good number of years and we have always been pleased with our purchases. As you perhaps know, buying the statues is the first step and "energizing" them at the temple is another step and the latter is important for "bonding" with the statue and to "take the metal" out of it. Putting the "deity" in the statue is a time-consuming and costly step, depending on the temple one chooses. It could range between $100 - 300. Fortunately the purchase of the statue itself at Lotus Sculpture makes it a great first experience and the next steps are equally moving, organizing the trip, purchases for the real deity, costs to the temple and swamis etc. I wished that some of the statues were more affordable, but then I understand that you offer quality product and that you run a business, not a temple. At the most a payment plan should be offered (pardon me if it is, I am not aware of it) instead of putting the item on a credit card. Personally, I do not like to associate my statues with credit. I see every item that you sell as divine, at least the path to an incredible experience with the "other" world, be it Hindu or Buddhist. Thanks for the great opportunity for shopping at Lotus Sculpture. I received the Yantra and will have it consecrated at the Kali Temple in Burtonsville, MD. We have also bought: Kali blessed in Burtonsville, MD, a.k.a Miss Kitty The Goddess with the mirror (she is now Meenakshi, blessed at the Murugan temple of North America, a.k.a Babe Ganesh, a.k.a Bongo on drums, blessed at the Ganesh temple, Queens Muruga and his peacock,a.k.a. Murray, blessed at Palani Andavar's shrine, Murugan temple of North America. The peacock lamp They have all been blessed and contrary to popular belief, I do not have a special shrine or altar in my house, I place them wherever I desire in the house, bedroom, living room and I do not feel disrespectful towards them. I figure, if they can see me in form and formless, what difference does it make whether they are in my bedroom or in a special part of the house dedicated to them? I do not believe in strict adherence to rituals. I do not possess these statues for religious purposes only. We offer them the food we eat on a daily basis. They also have special names. They make us happy, we love them. The represent beauty, a presence of something divine or more, I do not know. I know that they love us and smile in turn, NOT ALL THE TIME and that is how I know that the deity is here with us. They sometimes show sadness. Basically the relationship with them is an endless labor of love, cooking for them, celebrating birthdays with them, buying fruits for bongo, gardening for them and so forth. The experience is unbelievable.Reviewer:Jenny (Roselle Park, nj, US)
Kyle Tortora provides a great service in making these murthies available, and best of all, he has a deep understanding of Hinduism and Buddhism, and the esoterics of worship. I've recently bought my second murthy from Lotus. Kyle maintains an outstanding inventory of beautiful statues in all materials and sizes and his prices are extremely reasonable. Shipping was super fast! His customer service is among the best I've ever encountered. Thank you Lotus Sculpture!Reviewer:Gayatri Rajan (CANYON, CA, US)
Having gone to India to purchase statues many times, spending days trying to find good craftsmanship and then arranging the import is no more ! The wood sculpture that I bought for my husband for our fifth wedding anniversary was so much better in person than even in the pictures. Thank you Lotus Scuplture ! I will be purchasing more in the future for sure.Reviewer:Gopal (Tampa, Florida, US)

About Fat and Happy Buddha
In sculpture the Laughing Buddha is depicted with a large, exposed belly carrying a hemp sack, which is filled with gold, health and happiness. Buddhists do not see wealth as being only material but spiritual wealth as well. Both his belly and the large sack convey this concept of abundance.
The laughing Buddha of Wealth is always depicted in a relaxing posture, exuding happiness to all who are near Him. His smile and jovial nature is infectious, reminding you that there is more to life than just worldly possessions. His large Belly is always bursting out of his robes. Sometimes he wears red colored robes that represent good fortune and blessings.
He usually carries a gold ingot (sycee) or a small hemp sack in his hand. He sits or stands upon a hemp sack of wealth under him. Around his neck, he wears auspicious mala beads as well as a large, round medallion that bring blessings to the surrounding. He sometimes holds a stick known as a wish stick, which he uses to grant people boons. Many people believe that rubbing his belly will grant anyone their wish.
He is often seen surrounded by children or carrying children on his back. Children naturally flock to him, not just because he gives them candy but because his joyous nature is so childlike that they see him as an equal. Some people believe a statue of the laughing Buddha is good to have around newborns as well as those wanting to have children.
Lava stone statues from Bali do not need much maintenance. The best way to maintain the statue is to simply dust the piece periodically to keep any dirt from accumulating. They can be used for both indoor and outdoor use.
go over the statue to remove any dust or dirt buildup."
Soap and warm water is the best way to maintain the statue. You can use a small brush to get into the small crevices of the statue like the hands and hair.
Lava stone's durability makes it perfect for cold winters and hot summers of any climate. The stone can stand up to the harshest conditions of heat and bitter cold. We suggest you bathe the sculpture at least once a year so that dirt does not collect on the sculpture. This will maintain the sculpture for your grandchildren and then their grandchildren!
If you have any questions concerning your lava stone statue please email us at email@example.com or call us at 1(760) 994-4455.

|State law determines whether or not an IRA, including SEP, SIMPLEs and Roth IRAs, can be attached in any bankruptcy proceedings, judgment or garnishment. The law varies among states and is subject to change at anytime.
The following are a few examples:
New York: The New York Statute protects Traditional, Roth and SIMPLE IRAs from bankruptcy proceedings. However, there have been at least two cases in which the court ruled that SEP IRAs are not offered the same protection; this resulted in differing legal opinions on whether SEPs are offered the same protection as Traditional, Roth and SIMPLE IRAs. Furthermore, the protection does not extend to amounts contributed to the account within 90 days after the judgment, or where judgment is made in cases of fraud.
Alabama: Traditional, SEP and SIMPLE IRAs are protected, but Roth IRAs are not.
New Jersey: Traditional, Roth, SEP and SIMPLE IRAs are protected, except where judgment is made in cases of fraud.
Utah: Traditional, Roth, SEP and SIMPLE IRAs are protected.
As you can see, the response will vary depending on the state. To be sure, consult with a lawyer to determine the law in your state and its applicability to the specific case.

Why do we sweat after running? Also we sweat sometime after drinking lots of water. Why it is so? Can someone please enlighten me in this regard?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Biology Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for biology researchers, academics, and students. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Exercise, such as running, increases muscle activity. This increases the energy demand of these tissues, which increases the rate of cellular respiration. Respiration releases heat as a by-product, therefore the body is hotter during and after exercise.
Sweating is a homoeostatic mechanism to keep core body temperature constant. It is a response to lower the body temperature. When the body becomes too hot, sweat is released onto the surface of the skin. The water from the sweat then takes some of the excess heat energy from the body and uses it to evaporate. Because water has a relatively large specific heat capacity a lot of heat can be carried away by this method.

Degree: Education Administration in the Church
Alma Mater: Southwest Baptist University

Favorite professional sports team: The Stl. Cardinals and The Kansas City Chiefs
Hobbies: I enjoy fishing, hunting, carpentry, cooking, and working in the children's ministry at church. I enjoy being outdoors and working with my hands.
Why did you choose to work for SBU? I chose to work for SBU because the time I spent here as a student was pivotal in my life. Being a Resident Assistant I was given the ability to work with students in all stages of their college experience, and I loved it. So, what better way to continue my love for guiding and helping people than to work for the University that refined me and helped me.
Favorite thing to do in Bolivar: Fishing at the underwater bridge and Pomme de Terre River, Going to Dunnegan Memorial Park, Playing catch with friends, and Homecoming!
Favorite college memory: My favorite college memory has to be Homecoming 2012 with working on the Pirate Ship float my dorm made. It was complete with two decks and working cannons.
Tips for success in first year at SBU: Be yourself! Don't go into college looking to remake who you are. Be who the Lord made you to be, not what society thinks you should be. You will make friends, just be willing to meet new people, but don't get too caught up with the social life. Your first year is just as academically important as your last. Most of all, be a light in the world for the one, true God.
What SBU means to me: SBU to me means community, love, and good times. SBU has allowed me to make lifelong friendships that are built upon the overarching principle of Christ, love. With those friends, I have experienced some of the best times of my life while at SBU.

Layer 7 at RSA Conference 2012
The 2012 RSA Conference is now over and as many journalists rightly noted this year's show was as much about opening up the enterprise to the outside as it was about closing the enterprise from the outside. With the acceleration of Cloud adoption and the rapid growth of tablet and smart phone inside the enterprise, the need to manage how information is shared out securely has never been greater. To this end, Layer 7 gave two talks at RSA in addition to two workshops and a sponsorship of Cloud Security Alliance Conference around this general theme.
The two talks given by Layer 7 staff at RSA included one focused on access best practices for APIs called Enterprise Access Control Patterns for REST & Web API and the other focused on the threat implications of Open APIs called Hacking's Gilded Age — How APIs Will Increase Risk & Chaos. The first was delivered by Layer 7 Director of Solution Engineering Francois Lascelles. The second was delivered by Layer 7 CTO Scott Morrison. For those of you not able to have caught the talks live, we provide the slides below. Enjoy.

19 Action News is tracking new developments in the case against a Cleveland Councilman for drunk driving -- and it doesn't involve councilman Zack Reed.
We've learned there is video of the arrest of Councilman Eugene Miller, but we'd been told there was none. This new information has come to light after a 19 Action News request.
Miller was arrested last November. He's accused of driving drunk and doing 70 mph in a 50 mph zone.
We filed a request for any police video and we were told us there was none.
Now we made a second request since Miller was due in court last week and we've learned the arresting officer recorded cell phone video of the arrest.
The ticket shows Miller tested below the blood alcohol limit but the officer wrote he smelled alcohol on the councilman's breath. At the time Miller plead not guilty.
Councilman Zack Reed has been in the headlines lately for a drunk driving arrest caught on tape. His third drunk driving arrest.
Councilman Miller's trial has been postponed until later next month.

Call for more volunteers for life-saving responders group
2:00pm Tuesday 11th February 2014 in News
THE Community First Responder team in Bransgore has started an intensive recruitment campaign to find more volunteers.
People living in Burley, Bransgore and Sopley are being urged to think about becoming local life-saving responders for the benefit of their own community.
Jackie Russell, deputy group co-ordinator said: "We desperately need volunteers who can give us a few hours a month to bolster our team in Bransgore where most volunteers live.
"But in Burley we need the community to come forward and volunteer so that we can provide a faster service than we can from Bransgore. In cases of cardiac arrest minutes really do matter if we are to improve the chances of someone surviving."
The group also needs volunteers living in Sopley and Ripley.
Anyone interested in Bransgore, Burley, Sopley or Ringwood can call 0844 500 9699 email enquiries@ bransgorecommunity responders.org.uk or visit brqansgorecommunity responders.org.uk

While the guiding mission of the West Virginia KIDS COUNT Fund has remained the same since our inception in 1990 — to provide the most trusted data about the well-being of West Virginia's children and build alliances to advocate for what kids need — the organization's work is constantly evolving in response to changing community needs and emerging children's policy issues. The KIDS COUNT Data Book is our signature program and an objective, reliable and valued source of data for educating policymakers and the public about children's needs. Currently, we are fighting to improve the quality of childcare by advocating for the funding necessary to implement a quality rating and improvement system for childcare programs. And, we are working to improve children's oral health by advocating for policies that promote good dental care for our youngest children.
The KIDS COUNT Data Book
The first KIDS COUNT Data Book was published in 1992 and quickly became the most respected source of data and analysis about the plight of West Virginia's children. KIDS COUNT Fund has continued to publish the yearly report, tracking key indicators of the health, education, safety and security, and economic conditions of children both on a statewide and county-by-county basis. The Data Book is often the basis of public policy decisions and is also an important resource for those who seek and award funding from foundations and the private sector.
Childcare Quality Rating and Improvement System Advocacy
In 2008 and 2009, KIDS COUNT led a statewide policy campaign, called "West Virginia Kids First," that resulted in the legislative framework West Virginia's first childcare quality rating and improvement system (QRIS). Now, KIDS COUNT is working with a broad-based coalition of child advocates, business leaders, childcare providers, legislative leaders and parents to secure the funding necessary to get the rating system up and running.
Children's Oral Health Advocacy
Since 2010, KIDS COUNT has been working to improve children's oral health by collecting and publishing objective, reliable data that will educate policymakers and the public about the importance of preventive dental care for young children; participating with oral health and child advocates in a coordinated effort to improve the dental health of West Virginia's kids; and advocating for policy changes that will improve children's access to preventive oral health services.

text: My dads latest project is the restoration of the 1956? IH Ready Power 10,000 watt generator we have had laying around for years. It was used on our bean farm many moons ago in a mobile shop during picking season. He has completey re-built the generator and engine, turned the skid unit into the trailer and added some "options" to it. Still has some work to go, but it was a nice day for pics here. Should be fun to take to shows with our Cub, and will be handy around the place too. TimT.

F515 Cable Winch
Fisher Technical Services
The F515 high-speed self-contained winch is the latest in Fisher's F-Series of self-contained high-performance winches. This unit features a maximum load capacity of 500lbs and a top line speed of 15'. The motor and motion controls are fully integrated within the winch frame itself, and it only requires a power connection and the connection of any one of the handheld or system controllers from the FTSI Navigator automation system to operate. F-Series winches incorporate an array of redundant and self-monitoring safety systems and are qualified for use in safety-intensive applications such as performer flight or over-audience scenery manipulation. Winches may be operated as stand-alone units or networked with any number of other machines of any type to produce a fully integrated automation system.
Manager Stage
Analog Way/Medialon
Analog Way, a designer and manufacturer of image converters, and Medialon have introduced Manager Stage, a software application designed to control the complete range of Analog Way seamless switchers for live events. Based on the Medialon Manager software, it is a solution designed to control multi-screen live events, while taking full advantage of the features of the iX range, Analog Way's high-resolution presentation seamless switchers. The graphic user interface allows visualization of the projection area. It enables the user to easily preview and schedule images and transition effects. Transition effects are stored as presets or sequences and can be launched live during the presentation. In addition, the presets can be edited live on the preview screen before being displayed on the main screen. The software is available now and will be exclusively sold and supported by Analog Way. Manager Stage for Analog Way allows the combination of several Analog Way Seamless Switchers, such as the Di-VentiX, the EventiX, the Octo range series, or the Graphic Switcher II. It can be upgraded to a full version of Medialon Manager Stage to control products other than Analog Way.
FLM Series
The FLM series, specifically built for the rental and staging market, is the most silent 20k lumen projector on the market, according to the company. With its extreme brightness, compact design, and low noise, the projector is designed for large events and venues where brightness and quality may be an issue. The first projector in the series to be launched is the FLM R20+, featuring a high-contrast 3-chip DLP engine based on Texas Instruments technology. The unit has a true native SXGA+ resolution, 20,000 center lumens, and a contrast ratio of 1800:1. It boasts fully sealed optics and impressive lamp maintenance. The lens range of the Barco RLM and SLM projector series can be reused on the FLM series, so there is no need for new lenses. Its advanced 10-bit processing ensures high-quality video performance. Options for additional software plug-ins deliver extra functionality for features such as multi-screen applications and advanced setting controls.
Xcelon 575
The Xcelon 575 is a DMX projector driven by a 575W Philips lamp with two gobo wheels (rotating and static), three rotating prisms, multicolor combos, and many other effects. The 10-channel fixture has a total of 13 interchangeable, indexable gobos (10 metal and three glass) on two wheels. Six of the gobos are rotating, and gobos from the two wheels can be overlain. A separate color wheel contains four dichroic filters and an open slot and also provides the ability to create split, quad, and shared color combinations. A rainbow effect can also be created, since the fixture offers continuous variable color scrolling in both directions. Additional features include three prisms (a 3-facet, 5-facet and 9-facet); a macro function for creating rotating gobo/rotating prism combinations; a variable speed strobe effect (1 to 10 flashes per second); preset variable/random strobe and dimming pulse effect; motor driven remote focusing (near to far); dual flag mechanical dimming system; high-output luminous-parabolic dichroic reflector; anti-reflection coated lenses; and 19° beam angle. The unit can be operated with any standard DMX controller or as a stand-alone effect in sound active mode. It includes Elation's exclusive Remote DMX addressing feature (RDMX), which lets you set DMX values remotely from the convenience of your DMX controller.
VL500/1000 Floor Stand
City Theatrical
City Theatrical's new VL500/1000 Floor Stand is a sleek, low profile, moving light mounting base specifically designed for VARI*LITE's new VL500™ Wash luminaires. It features a broad, stable, low profile base measuring 17"×13"×1" (43.2cm × 33cm × 2.5cm) with rounded corners. Fabricated from strong but lightweight aluminum, the stand is stackable for ease of storage. The mounting plate contains 1/2" (12.7mm) diameter mounting holes on 8" (20.3cm) centers suitable for either VL500 or VL1000™, as well as a center hole to enable the mounting of any conventional lighting fixture.
Golden Dragon Argus
Osram Opto Semiconductors
The new Golden Dragon Argus® provides uniform backlighting and color mixing, suitable for large display applications and for backlighting a 32" to 82" liquid crystal display (LCD) panel. Each includes a proprietary lens that enables the product's high luminous efficacy. The assembly comprises four thin-film, highly luminous LEDs (two green, one blue, and one red) in a marquis jewel arrangement. Any number of configurations can be combined, either offset in honeycomb patterns or in rows, to form infinitely scalable, high-intensity backlighting systems. The lens system has now been adapted for use in its surface-mount technology LEDs. The result is the transference of the LED's optical properties to a high-output light source, enabling bright light to be emitted sideways over the entire surface. Backlighting systems achieve uniform white light distribution using the red, green, and blue spectrums of thin-film and ThinGaN® (gallium nitride) technologies. This allows the highest brightness levels at the lowest operating voltage, is scalable, and supports all wavelengths. Each LED can be individually controlled to change the color hue using the footprint with a low-profile optics package height of only 4mm. The LEDs provide a switching time of less than 100ns. As the speed of liquid crystals increases, sequential color driver strategies will enable further enhancements in LCD display performance by reducing the need for costly color filters. They are shockproof and offer a lifetime of more than 50,000 hours.
Fantasy Scan 250
American DJ
The Fantasy Scan 250 is a 250W effect that creates the same multicolor textured glass patterns as the Fantasy 250 but with the addition of X/Y mirror scanner movement. Suitable for clubs and lounges, it comes with one gobo, four textured glass patterns, and eight dichroic colors plus white. The gobo and textured glass are replaceable. With a prism mirror, it can spin images forward or backward, and it also includes a strobe effect and a gobo shake effect. The five-channel unit can be operated with any universal DMX controller but can also run stand-alone in sound-active mode or with its 10 built-in programs. Other features include: a 30° beam angle, manual full-focusing, and smooth stepper motors. Additionally, it has a large, high-velocity fan, which keeps it cool enough to run without on/off duty cycles. It also features multi-voltage operation (98V, 120V, 208V, 230V, and 255V).
VectorWorks 12 Viewer
A free, downloadable Viewer application has been updated for VectorWorks 12, enabling those who do not own the program to view and print projects created in VectorWorks Fundamentals, VectorWorks Architect, VectorWorks Landmark, VectorWorks Spotlight, VectorWorks Machine Design, and VectorWorks Designer. It lets an individual open a VectorWorks file and make use of the viewing tools and commands, such as the Pan and Zoom tools. As the Viewer can be used by anyone who does not own VectorWorks, it also allows service bureaus to print files for customers. To download the VectorWorks Viewer, visit www.nemetschek.net/downloads/fundamentals.
My Favorite DJ/VJ Gear:
I really like strobes, and the Martin Atomic Strobes are incredible. They are extremely bright and reliable. I like the fact that they don't duty-cycle out. I think the all time greatest club lighting controller is the Martin Light Jockey. What else can do what it does for the price? It's got macros, palettes, time codes, DMX in, offline visualizer, etc. It is also reliable and time tested; I have never had any major problems with the program.
The new LeMaitre CO2 system is really impressive — finally a CO2 system that is affordable. In the past, only mega clubs could afford a system like this, but now anyone can afford one. It's compact and well built.

You have to love the military and its use of acronyms. There is one for everything! As a matter of fact, the seven Army Values can even be easily remembered as an acrostic, where the beginning letter of each value spell out LDRSHIP (or leadership). I have these words posted up on 8X10s near my desk for all to see. As I happen to be deep in tough I was really meditating on those words and couldn't help but think of my role as a husband, father, Army leader and lead advocate for our boys and the special needs they have. I thought I'd take a moment and try to remember and capture some of the thoughts I had earlier today. I'll have to take one value at a time as I know that I am going to get on a rant, and I don't want to write a thesis!
Now, for some of you this may be some pretty direct stuff. Much of this will probably challenge you greatly. No one is harder on me than, well, me! I demand more of myself than anyone else does. I work hard to self-discipline my mind, heart and will to conform to a higher order of operation. So, when you are reading some of these below remember that I am telling them just as much to myself personally to remind myself of my God-given charge in life in these roles above. If at any point, I start to raise your blood pressure and tick you off, then just tell yourself that I'm writing this for the other guy reading this…not you. Savvy? Ok, here goes…
To be loyal one has to have trust and commitment in the long term. It is the attitude of being sold out. To be wholly committed to the cause without the possibility of a wandering eye toward other people, goals or pleasures. Loyalty continues through the good and the bad and endures the sways of short term thoughts, feelings and activities. The best example I can think of is the family dog. That dog is loyal to his master. He eagerly awaits the return home from work, and he does this everyday! He could have been scolded or punished the night before, but right now that doesn't matter. He can't wait for his master's return. He may get distracted momentarily with playing with the kids or to gnaw on a bone, but as soon as he here's the garage door! It's ON! HE'S HOME! And as soon as the master walks in the door, his faithful and loyal dog is there to greet him with happiness. Right, wrong or indifferent, that dog expresses loyalty.
I have absolute loyalty to my family. There is nothing that could lead me astray or pull me away from the loyalty I have for the bond with my wife and role as a father. I am loyal to my wife. I don't look at other women and certainly never put myself in compromising positions in work or life to threaten this. And when we have disagreements, arguments and fights (yes, there are levels of escalation) I remain loyal to my wife. If we're having an argument it is a 90% chance I am to blame for it anyway! I am so disappointed how many married men I work with that can't resist that gaze they give to women. That lustful, improper gaze. Like loyalty, being disciplined in your thought-life is a choice to make daily. See, men were designed with free will. It is a choice to remain loyal to your wife. It is a choice to remain loyal to your autistic kids. Being loyal makes life that much easier. When you are committed with 100% of your heart and mind to the total welfare and care of another person and are sold out in common cause to the responsibilities in life that you share together, then it is a choice you only have to make one time! I don't want to hear about how it's OK to look. Sorry, it's not. Would any man prefer to have their wife staring and perhaps fantasizing about total strangers when he is not around? Worse yet, when he is right there! Just the thought alone makes you question your loyalty. When the decision has been made to be loyal, then it is easy to discipline those thoughts to just say no when tempted. Same goes for the kids. I am loyal to my children. I will never leave them, their mother or put them in a position where I am not their #1 fan and caregiver. Autism makes life extremely difficult – almost maddening at times. Your wife, your kids, deserve your loyalty. A wise friend once told me shortly after I started my family that I "no longer live life for myself." How true that is. It is so sad to hear about father's who give up on the autistic family – abandon their wife. Chicken out. Wimp out. Wuss out. What kind of cowardly man believes that he can just walk away from his responsibilities and leave a wife to cope alone and children to not have a strong, loving, caring father to assist with the development. Shame on those cowards. My family can count that I will never be that man. I love and embrace the challenge. They can count on my loyalty as long as there is breathe in my body. I will always be there for my wife and for my boys.
If you have been struggling with loyalty to your wife and/or family, please reach out to me. I'd love to try to help you. Perhaps provide some encouraging words or share with you ways that I strengthen my commitment in life. Military men understand loyalty to country. I encourage you to show that same level of faith and commitment to your special needs family at home. They deserve it!

London's spectacular New Year's Eve fireworks display at the EDF Energy London Eye is famous around the world.
At midnight, Big Ben's famous "bongs" will ring out, followed by the UK's largest annual fireworks display.
Celebrations will continue until the early hours – staying until the end will make it easier to leave the viewing areas and go home.
Where to Watch the Fireworks
Each year around 250,000 people watch the fireworks in central London.
There are designated viewing areas, which will close once full. Visitors will be re-directed to other viewing areas as they fill up.
If you don't fancy braving the crowds, you can watch the fireworks live on television!
Travelling to and From Central London
If you are travelling into Central London on New Year's Eve, make sure you plan your journey in advance. There will be major changes to regular Tube and train services, plus road and bridge closures.
There will be queuing systems and may be different routes and station exits on the night. You may not be able to travel home using the same route that you took in.
Plan your journey in advance with Transport for London (TfL), and make sure you follow the directions of stewards and police on the night.
Public transport will be extremely busy – your journey will take much longer than usual, and queues of up to 90 minutes are expected at stations close to the fireworks once they've finished. Consider walking part of your journey home.
Use Transport for London's Journey Planner, National Rail Enquiries and london.gov.uk for more information about transport on New Year's Eve.
Safety Tips
- Stay together with friends and have a designated meeting point in case you get split up
- Do not bring glass into the viewing areas
- Keep valuables well hidden – pickpockets operate in large crowds
- Wrap up warm, as you will be standing around for several hours
- Allow plenty of time for your journey home
Pubs and bars will mostly be ticketed on the night – make sure you plan in advance if you're celebrating in central London.

Detailed Itinerary
Please note: For those traveling in 2015, your itinerary may vary slightly from what is presented below.
Day 1 - Depart U.S. / Fly overnight to Venice
Depart the U.S. for Italy. The particulars of your arrival overseas are detailed with your flight itinerary.
Day 2 - Arrive in Venice
You arrive at the airport in Venice, Italy. Once in the arrival terminal, please locate the water taxi and Information desk. The staff of Venezia Taxi—one of the 3 operators there—will take care of you: they will provide a voucher and show you the way to your water taxi. From the airport pier, you'll transfer (approximately 35 minutes) to your centrally located hotel in Venice. The rest of the day is free to discover and dine on your own with the VBT City Information included in your Final Travel Booklet as your guide. If you are going to be delayed meeting our transfer representative for more than 15 minutes due to delayed or lost luggage, please have airport staff page our driver with your last name so they may be notified of your delay. You may also contact our One Call travel assistance to advise of your delay and they will contact our transfer service. Our drivers are only able to wait for up to 45 minutes from the time your flight lands after which you would be responsible for your own transfer.
Please note: If you arrive early, your hotel room may not be available until 2:00 pm. You may store your luggage with the reception desk.
Please note: VBT transfer times and departure points are finalized in advance and cannot be modified for individual guests. If you fly in earlier than the scheduled program dates, transportation from the airport will be at your own expense.
Day 3 - Meet Trip Leaders / Warm-up ride / Welcome reception
VBT No-Air Package guests: Meet your fellow travelers and Venice representative at 9:50 am in Venice. The meeting point is the bar called Café Marco Polo Darsena on the docks of Venice Marco Polo airport (address: via Luigi Broglio 8, Marco Polo airport). The bar is easy to find, very close to the water transport docks of the airport where motor taxis park. Our local representative will be holding a VBT sign. Once the group is gathered you will depart for Cortina d'Ampezzo by private coach.
If your arrival at 9:50 am is delayed, please contact our hotel in Cortina d'Ampezzo to advise staff of the delay, and they will pass your message along to your VBT Trip Leaders. In the event of delays, also please see page 3 of "For Travel-Related Emergencies." VBT highly recommends flying to Italy at least one day before the tour begins. This allows you to rest and recover from jet lag before you begin sightseeing and cycling.
VBT Air Package and Pre-Extension guests: Meet your VBT representative at 9:00 am in the main lobby of our Venice hotel; he or she will be holding a VBT sign.
From our hotel, a water taxi will transfer us first to the mainland and the Venice Marco Polo airport, where we meet our private motorcoach and continue on to Cortina. The transfer will last about 2 hours, and we will make a short stop on the way. Our VBT Trip Leaders will meet us at our arrival point and escort us to our first hotel, in Cortina.
All guests arrive in Cortina in time for lunch on your own. Our hotel is located in the heart of the city, on the main shopping and pedestrian area, full of life, elegant shops, restaurants and trendy cafés. After lunch we settle in to our hotel. Later, our VBT Trip Leaders will hold a safety and bike-fitting session, followed by a warm-up ride.
Tonight, enjoy a welcome cocktail reception in the hotel's cozy bar. Later, enjoy our special welcome dinner in the hotel's elegant restaurant. Some local Ampezzan specialties like
, or crescent-shaped ravioli, will immerse you in the culinary traditions of a region that has inherited influences of both Austrian Tyrol and Italian Veneto kitchens.
Day 4 - Cycle to Cadore / Picnic on Calalzo Lake
After breakfast, we start biking downhill along the Boite River valley on the Dolomites Bike Path, on which we descend from a 1,250 meters (4,101 feet) to 770 meters (2,526 feet) in Calalzo. The path was once a railway track that connected the little villages of the Cadore mountain community. Le Tofane mountain range marks our progress. Soon we admire the towering pyramidal peak of Antelao to our left and Mount Pelmo to our right, with its saddle-like summit. The latter is now a natural reserve area due to the discovery of many fossils and dinosaur footprints.
We are now in the Ampezzan Valley, one of the four historic Ladin valleys. The Ladins—a population evolved from Celtic tribes and Roman soldiers—are the inhabitants of these valleys. Long remote and secluded from the rest of Italy, they remain a proud people whose rare language, Ladin, is closely related to the Swiss Romansh, Surselvan and Friulian. It is also still spoken in nearby Austro-Italian border regions.
The two Italian provinces of Trento and Bolzano are administratively independent from the rest of Italy, meaning they maintain a degree of autonomy. In particular Cortina retains its own legislative system, one that is unique in the Dolomites: a council known as Regole d'Ampezzo. Under the
and the ancient Celtic structure of property ownership, the 800 original families administer the community's common land, which cannot be split or sold to outsiders or other families.
Lunch is a picnic organized on the verdant banks of Lake Calalzo. Early this afternoon you have the option to shuttle or cycle back to Cortina, where you have the rest of the afternoon to explore on our own. You may want to follow our routes on an easy walk around Cortina, or visit the Ethnography museum that houses a collection of antique tools and cultural artifacts. In the summertime, ride a gondola up to the slopes of Le Tofane or Faloria to enjoy the breathtaking vistas of surrounding peaks. Or take a taxi ride and a walk to the open-air Museum of the Great War on the high peaks of Rifugio 5-Torri, one of the most exciting and moving itineraries in the Dolomites. Dinner is on your own tonight; in the summer you may opt to dine at a
high on the peaks.
After dinner, we recommend a stroll in Cortina. In the summer, your visit might coincide with a cultural event, folk festival or classical music concert.
Day 5 - Cycle on bike paths to Dobbiaco, San Candido, Brunico
Today we take an optional moderate ride up to Cimabanche Pass through a wooded and scenic area. If you prefer an easier start, you may take a brief shuttle before joining an easy downhill and flat ride on bike paths to Dobbiaco and San Candido. The views on the way are spectacular: we pedal by the Pomagagnon Mountain, the Tre Cime di Lavaredo (the "Three Peaks"), and picturesque Toblacher Lake. En route, we might stop to pay tribute to the victims of World War I at the intimate cemetery at the foothills of Monte Piana.
As we arrive in Dobbiaco, the landscape changes: rocky mountain flanks skirted with green and roadside alpine lakes give way to open meadows and green pastures dotted with large, isolated houses, or
. Snow-capped peaks rise in the distance. This is the Pusteria Valley, a paradise for bikers with its network of bike paths, bike hotels and bike shops aimed at promoting an environmentally friendly lifestyle and healthy discovery of the valleys.
We soon arrive in San Candido in South Tyrol, close to the border with Austria. Here we stop for lunch and a stroll in this thousand-year-old little city. You can visit the ancient, Romanesque Duomo della Collegiata—the oldest monastery in the Dolomites—and drink at one of the many stone fountains in the cobblestone pedestrian area. The Pusteria Valley is rich in history and legend as it was on the ancient trade route to
(now in Austria) from Rome.
In the afternoon we continue biking along the Upper Pusteria Valley to Brunico, through open lush meadows, forested woods and charming villages, always following the course of the Rienza River. We're cycling in the heart of South Tyrol and a strong Austrian influence is everywhere, from the language (all signs are first in German and then Italian) to the architectural features and local traditions. Our terrain is paved except in some short stretches in the woods. We offer both an easy and an easy-to-moderate ride. Later we arrive at our hotel in Riscone, beautifully located at the foothills of the Plan de Corones mountain ridge. You're sure to feel comfortable and even spoiled here: our hotel features a large garden, an indoor swimming pool fed by unspoiled mountain springs, in-room waterbeds and sauna options. Dinner is served at the elegant hotel restaurant and includes a large salad buffet.
Day 6 - Cycle through the Aurina and Tures Valleys
After breakfast today, we cycle north to discover the beauty of the valleys of Aurina and Tures. About 90% of our biking today is on easy paths along the Rio Aurino River. After an initial stretch through Brunico's open fields, our path runs by high mountains dotted with slope-hugging castles and cattle farms. Brunico was built in a strategic position at the crossroads of four valleys; castles once played the important role of watching and defending the territory. We pass tidy hamlets of wooden houses, high steeples, well-manicured gardens and cattle pens. Lunch is included today and is a special barbecue meal of tasty meats and crispy vegetables prepared by our host, Mani. From our lunch spot, we can take a short easy walk to the roaring Riva waterfalls. In the afternoon you may choose to explore more of these lovely surroundings and maybe walk to the higher waterfall. Bike back to our hotel or hop a shuttle to pamper yourself at our hotel spa. An optional easy-to-moderate loop is also offered if you feel energetic and wish to ride more!
If you're riding back to our hotel, pause on your way to discover the city of Brunico and its pedestrian area, full of
shops and boutiques. Or visit the Ripa castle, once the summer residence of the prince bishops. Today, it is one of the five museum-castles that world-famous mountain climber Reinhold Messner has transformed into a cultural center dedicated to mountain people from four continents.
Dinner is at our hotel restaurant.
Day 7 - The Isarco River Valley, the medieval towns of Bressanone and Chiusa
This morning we leave our beautiful hotel and pedal across the wide Plan de Corones plateau. On the way we can admire the traditional masi farmhouses above Brunico. Soon we rejoin the picturesque Pusteria Valley bike path along the Rienza River and enjoy a beautiful ride though more forests, tiny villages and covered bridges. Before lunch near the ruins of the Rio Pusteria fortress, we have the option to shuttle into the medieval city of Bressanone or continue riding to Bressanone on a moderate stretch through a thickly wooded, scenic area. Bressanone, at the confluence of the Rienza and Isarco rivers, has been a very important bishop town, evidenced by the Duomo and its beautiful frescoed and sculptured cloister, the Hofburg Bishopric and the stone city gates. The narrow, porticoed streets and multicolored house facades will capture your heart. Lunch is on your own here.
Early this afternoon we cycle on the beautiful bike path down the Isarco River Valley and through the medieval city of Chiusa, another pearl of this valley. There we can stroll along the cobblestone main street and maybe follow the suggestion of one of our local leaders, who says that gelato here is the best of the valley.
From here, we shuttle to the next destination: Merano. Our modern Hotel Terme Merano is centrally located on the pedestrian Kurpromenade on the River Adige, opposite the historic Kurhouse. Relax, perhaps enjoying the wellness center, before dinner on your own.
Like Cortina, Merano is a vibrant cultural city, offering concerts and entertainment on summer evenings.
Day 8 - Resia Lake, apple trees and vineyards in Val Venosta
After breakfast, we shuttle to an altitude of 1,500 meters (4,921 feet) to Lake Resia, near the borders of Austria and Switzerland. The lake is famous for the steeple emerging from its waters, from a church that was submerged after the village of Curon was evacuated, dynamited and flooded following the construction of a dam. More energetic bikers may want to bike the loop around the lake, including an uphill ride. For all our guests, our route follows the course of the river Adige and descends gradually. The ride is particularly picturesque with spellbinding landscapes. Surrounded by mountain peaks, we cycle through dozens and dozens of sprawling apple orchards, for which Venosta valley is particularly famous. We also pass vineyards and castles adorning the slopes. Starting in late August, we roll by many tractors and farmers tending to their fields. It's sure to be one of your more memorable rides. Our recommended stop for lunch on your own is the Renaissance village of Gorenza.
If you are a very strong biker, you can opt to bike all the way back to Merano. Otherwise we have planned to shuttle you by local train (a 20-30 minute ride), a very popular and convenient way of transportation for bikers in this area.
Later tonight in Merano, raise a glass of Blauburgunder wine and toast our week over a farewell dinner.
Day 9 - Free time in Merano / Transfer to Verona / VBT No-Air Package ends
VBT No-Air Package guests: your tour ends at our Merano hotel today. The morning is free. You can take a taxi on your own to the Merano train station. Most trains connect in Bolzano. The taxi to Merano train station costs approx. €10-15, and the ride is about 5 minutes.
VBT Air Package guests: After breakfast, say "ciao" to your Trip Leaders and spend the rest of the morning discovering Merano. For only €5—a special price for VBT guests—you can enjoy the amazing Terme Merano thermal pools in the beautifully designed building set in a five-hectare (12-acre) garden. For more information, visit www.termemerano.it. A private underground tunnel connects our hotel to this public facility.
If you prefer, shop and stroll the historic city center. Or take a walk out of the city to visit the
gardens and castle, where Austrian Empress Sissi lived. The gardens' 12 hectares (30 acres) are beautifully landscaped and were voted the most beautiful Gardens of Italy in 2005. After lunch on your own, be ready to leave at 1:00 pm on the private motorcoach to our hotel in Verona, where we will arrive at about 2:30 pm. The bus is reserved exclusively for VBT Air Package and Post-Extension guests. You have the rest of the day to explore or relax in Verona.
If you have chosen the independent Post-Trip extension to Verona, you remain at this hotel for three nights. When you arrive today, a local guide will meet you and hold an informative hospitality introduction, followed by an orientation tour of Verona. The rest of the day is free to explore on your own with VBT's City Information included in your Final Travel Booklet as your guide. If you are visiting from mid-June to the end of August, don't miss the opera shows in the Roman Arena, a very short walk from our hotel. A little tip: local opera lovers say the best seats (particularly for acoustics) are the very affordable "Unreserved Stone Steps in Sectors D or E (Gradinata D or E)". You can buy these at the last minute at the ticket office or—best—in advance online at http://www.arena.it/en-US/HOMEen.html. An open-air opera in the Arena is an unforgettable experience.
Day 10 - Depart for U.S.
Early this morning, transfer to the Verona Airport for your flight back to the U.S. VBT recommends that you check the transfer time in your "Transfer Reminder" the night before your flight. The transfer is prearranged and prepaid by VBT.
Please note: For guests with early-morning departures, breakfast at the hotel may not be available. Please check with the front desk to verify the times that breakfast is served.
Please note: VBT transfer times and departure points are finalized in advance and cannot be modified for individual guests. If you extend your stay beyond the scheduled program dates, return transportation to the airport will be at your own expense.
