Israeli writers' trophy leads to 'emptiness of the day after'
Gavron jokes that now the side can envision its own writers' team library—stocked with books from exchanges with other footballing men of letters. The library might adjoin a trophy room that glitters like Real Madrid's. In reality, though, the cup likely will end up with the team's sponsor, a popular Israeli café chain.
The most immediate benefits from entry into this loose amalgam of writers' teams, previously confined to Europe, are gaining a rallying point for young Israeli writers and offering a new means for exposure to literature. The Writers' League concept started in Italy with Osvaldo Soriano Football Club, named for the late Argentine writer. (One of Soriano's football stories, "The Longest Penalty Ever," became a feature film in 2005, El penalti más largo del mundo.)
Italy organized a World Cup of Writers in 2006, also contested by England, the Netherlands, Hungary and Sweden. Murmurings among some "pissed-off" members of this fraternity are that Sweden has bolstered its club with pedigreed players of dubious literary credentials. "Even their poets looked robust," English writer Craig Taylor said of Swedes at the 2006 event ("Literary Kicks," CBC, 3 Oct 06). Other members in the collective include Spain, Austria, Slovenia, Switzerland and Norway.
Gavron and other organizers might have been tempted but limited team selection to writers with poetry collections, novels (graphic and text-based) or nonfiction works to their names. For those living with fingertips glued to a QWERTY keyboard, or Hebrew equivalent, football offers a chance to learn how to become part of a group. "You know writers are usually on their own behind the computer screen, not much social life," Gavron says, "so it was a great opportunity to find some kind of social life and to get together with people who are like you."
The theme for the literary event at Tel Aviv's Tmuna Theatre on Dec 16, appropriate for a tournament celebrating Israel's 60th anniversary as a modern state and featuring England and Germany, was perception of the other. Israeli football commentator Avi Meller guided the discussion.
According to Gavron, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier has been pushing such sporting exchanges, which have formed part of Israel and Germany's "special relationship" since the 1960s. The football associations of Israel and Germany have helped sponsor the writers' events.
Der Spiegel on the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries in 2005 characterized periodic nitpicking and bickering as "more like Homer and Marge than two sovereign states" (Henryk M. Broder, "Normality in the Shadow of History," 24 Mar 05). But for every diplomatically mandated visit to the Yad Vashem memorial signs of normality in the relationship abound: Volkswagen and Mercedes automobiles in the Holy Land along with German tourists on beach promenades in Tel Aviv. Germany, after the United States, is Israel's most important trade partner.
Gavron said that writers beneath a blue Tel Aviv sky this week took another small step to healing stereotypes and stigmas affecting the three nations. They could all consider themselves people of the book.

More Cushion for the Pushing?
Any other day, I'd bypass this subject and wouldn't think twice about it. I'm sitting at home sick as a dog, channel surfing. I see the Tyra Banks Show (re-runs obviously) about women loving men with big bellies. And then the subject was broached on Facebook. So I have to ask ladies…REALLY?
Because I heard a lot of lies. lies. lies. Maybe it was to save face, or maybe it was the fact that they no longer consider their lover's body part of the equation of love. Maybe it's all about the dollars and to hell with the body. I don't know, I'm just trying to gain a little perspective.
See…I know without a shadow of doubt that some women don't like skinny guys. I used to be just that. Being skinny as a rail, trying to talk to a dimepiece is a futile attempt no matter what your charming smile or winning looks have done for you in the past. Some women don't roll that way. They want a physical man who can handle himself and be able to bring food to the table. I get that.
But beer bellies? I'm heavily into the gym/fitness thing and I am a pretty sizable guy. At 42 years old, 232lbs, I still have no gut. Am I to believe, I'd lose out to the fat guy at the end of the bar with a bucket of Natural Light beer? To quote the fictional senator Clay Davis from HBO's the Wire, "shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit."
Muscle>Fat everyday, all day.
Guys, PLEASE do not fall into this sitcom reality TV show/facebook tomfoolery. Get your asses in the gym. Nevermind what women think….ok scratch that(what was I thinking), consider your own health for a minute. Abdominal obesity can kill you (indirectly). Not to mention affecting the lead in your "pencil". It's a sure sign that your estrogen levels are rising. And I'm hoping I don't have to break THAT one down to you.
Our abs are quite useful. When you find them again, you can email me and thank me for getting rid of your back pain and improving you sex life. Abs act as a stabilizer for your torso and a gyroscope for your….hell, if you didn't know all this time, you might be outta luck on the latter.
Ladies (just the ones that like big men), tell your man the truth, yes you want a big man for the comfort and joys of life. One that can also handle himself and protect you. A guy that can be that "blanket" you want. You don't want a guy who runs around making jokes about his "tool shed". Encourage your big man to go walking, ease him into the cardio. Before you know it, he'll be able to "see" himself again and won't have to reach blindly for it.
Am I too harsh? Probably. Am I an insensitive ass? Definitely. Listen I know there are conditions which prevent some men from exercising and/or eating right. To those guys, I'm sorry…this isn't meant for your eyes. I'm strictly referring to those 30-40 somethings who are fully ambulatory yet down kegs of beer at happy hour, talking about "yeah I'm gonna start working out again". Meanwhile their wives and girlfriends are on the Tyra Banks Show talking about, "Tyra, my big bellied man is putting it down".
The Return
He's coming back to the game. And as much as his peers will hate it, they will also welcome him back with open arms. All while making snide comments behind his back. No, it isn't Brett Favre and it sure as hell ain't Jordan. It's Eldrick. And before you get your panties in a bunch asking who Eldrick is, I'll tell you.
Eldrick Tont Woods…affectionately (and intimately) known as Tiger. Now, there is absolutely nothing about Tiger Woods that I could expound upon that the media hasn't already filleted and gutted a million times already, except for one thing. Why he got caught. (no, not why he did it, why he got caught).
Tiger Woods is an island unto himself. That kinda makes it hard to do dirt when you're visible from the weather channel's satellites. Secondly, he went against the grain of every celeb/athlete's mantra. He had no Entourage.
Entourage (read: boys who you pay and trust to do YOUR dirt and take the fall). These people are made up of people you know before the fame and fortune and when the shit hits the fan, will gladly scoop it up.
Celebs with entourages usually have a bad image of boozing party hounds, so Tiger refrained from having one, not realizing their true purpose. Damn, hindsight's a bitch ain't it?
But let me make myself really really clear. In no way do I condone Mr. Woods infidelities. He was stupid and got caught with his hands, feet and who knows what else in the cookie jar. Apparently, he thought he was a college frat boy. I remember my college days, (barely). I felt unstoppable. I vaguely remember my mother mentioning something about me burning out before I turned 25 (guess what mom, it was sooner…).
I didn't have an entourage but I had friends I trusted impeccably. Question is, who does Tiger trust? It's kinda funny though, because real tigers hunt solo, at night and ambush their prey. The two legged tigers we know use Patron Margaritas….or cereal.
If only he had one good friend to say "I don't think its a good idea, let's go" We wouldn't be reading about all this nonsense now. But you know what, it's not all his fault.
Let's back up a sec. So the wifey had no idea? She was clueless? Yeah right, whatever. If the handwriting is on the wall, you just don't apply a fresh coat of paint. Let's not forget this has been going on for years, and she just now decided to bash his head in? A one eyed man with a cataract could see she didn't care what Tiger did UNTIL it was about to become public knowledge.
So why are people so hellbent on what Tiger is or isn't doing? Americans (some of us) are boring, mundane hum drum people who live their lives vicariously through someone else. Everyone wants to shake up their lives and do something wild and off the cuff but is afraid to. That's why Vegas is so popular. What? you thought it was because of the casinos? Kill yourself now and help the census.
People like to commune socially. That's why everyone is in everyone else's business and personal affairs. And when celebrities and/or an athlete's business come to light…oh boy, the fireworks fly. Tiger's affairs were, socially speaking "a multiple orgasm" for the media and it's endearing public.
The man liked to get his multicultural penis wet. He's also given billions in charity benefiting children. Does this make it right? Hell no it doesn't. Not at all. But tell me…what has your trifling baby's daddy contributed other than his seed?
Stop casting stones. Welcome back Tiger.
New Year's Resolution? Who me?
Happy New year! It's that time isn't it? Time to make that new years resolution.
'I'm gonna lose weight"
"I'm gonna save money"
and my all time favorite, (one that I can speak on) "I'm gonna work out and get in shape".
Yay…I for one, welcome January. I'll get all the cannon fodder I need for my blogs right in the gym. Here's a question I've been wanting to ask so many people. Why do you need a certain time of the year as an excuse to do something that you're NOT going to stick with year round only to make the exact same excuse at the same time next year? I stopped making resolutions a loooong time ago. I figured out that obviously, I never wanted to do said resolution in the 1st place or I would have done it a lot sooner.
I get it though..sorta. a new year. a new beginning. a new you. Thing is, this could work with other holidays as well.
Easter… "Resurrect a new you".
July 4th…"Celebrate independence from the old you"
Christmas.. "the birth of a new you"
New Years is just another holiday excuse. Let me give you a few synonyms for the word excuse according to Brittanica: apology , cleanup, cop-out, cover up, evasion, subterfuge, justification, plea…see where I went with that?
Hey, if you stick with your fitness program…great, awesome. I owe you an heartfelt apology and I'll offer you my personal help and assistance. But my money's on the ones who just paid up for a whole year at their local gyms and will be outta there by……mmm, let's say March. It won't even be 30 days for some. C'mon, I haven't spend the last 13 years of my life in a gym and not have noticed.
I see you…on the phones, wearing makeup, scoping out potential mates (ok nothing wrong with that part), socializing like the gym is a club without a liquor license. Refusing a trainer and still working out wrong, holding up the machines that real gym members need. And you wonder how can you work out for so long and not see any results.
I didn't forget about you weekend warriors (part timers in the gym). you have a little definition, so you swagger around the gym after you bench 225, flexing like you're in the Arnold Classic, grunting like you're in a strongman competition, wearing your little brother's wifebeater so you can appear bigger. Tipping the scales at 220lbs does not put you in the big boy club (unless you're 5'9). These guys usually quit after they tear a muscle from lifting improperly.
Ladies, ladies, ladies…there are sporting goods stores that sell non-tight fitness gear. So there won't be any need to tie a shirt around your waist to cover up all that ass you're trying to hide. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Don't buy it, and we won't look. Thus negating the need to cover up what you thought was sexy in the sporting goods dressing room. If men decided to wear loincloths in the pilates class, it would take you outta your game just a little bit wouldn't it? Mmhmm, thought so. It's all good til the shoe is on the other foot. Or, to put in more simpler graphic terms…til there's a large penis in your face and you begin to remember why you're working out in the first place.
All in all, its going to be fun times these first few months. I have a few goals of my own as well. Only I made them back in October ;)
See ya in the gym!
What's that smell?
I'm really trying hard to be as unbiased as I possibly can when I say this: Ladies…desperation is not a good look. I should probably elaborate a bit more, "being desperate in getting a man" is not a good look. Yeah, I know there are guys who are just as desperate, but I'm not one of them and I'll be damned if I hang around those losers, so I ain't writing about them…yet.
I can smell it you know. No, not that Dolce & Gabanna you're wearing or it's Avon equivalent, the desperation. Seeping outta your pores like next day tequila. That 4th quarter hurry up offense to score…A woman's game clock, it's a shame there's no overtime…. Ovaries, apparently are like time bombs. You gotta use em before they explode. Huh, who knew?
Whenever I'm out socially, I get that look. You know the look I'm referring to: that extra linger-look away-then look again-smile look. It's THAT look men love to get. It brings back that untainted school boy in all of us. That "yeah, I'm the sh*t" feeling.
However, It's the wild eyed, "I haven't had any sleep because I can hear my Fallopian tubes cracking" that scares the bejesus out of men.
I had a T-Pain experience at Chili's the other day. Hanging with the guys, killing the 2 for 1 all night drinks specials when the bartender says "a lady is buying you a drink". Cool, I turn down nothing but my collar…
It happened in slow motion (at least for me it was). I saw the approach, I saw the smile, I saw the switch in her hips that screamed "I'M FERTILE, I NEED A MAN, I NEED BABIES". Then I saw the look of disgust when she caught the light's reflection from my tungsten carbide diamond wedding band. It was like someone had messed up her $85 dollar perm. She wasn't even cordial when I offered to return the favor. Maybe it was the walk of shame back to her table or the giggling schoolboys that my friends turned into.
Most of all, I'm sure it was the disappointment. I felt bad for her in a sense. She looked weathered/tired in the dating game. You know how desert travelers see mirages and get that burst of excitement and energy only to find out it's nothing there? Yeah, like that.
What can you do? As long as we have the genetically encoded primal need to procreate there will always be trials in finding a mate. That goes for both men and women, but its just funnier to me when women have to do "the walk of shame". Divine retribution? maybe.

The Rangers open a four-game series tonight in Oakland. They have an eight-game lead in the American League West with 11 to play, and their magic number is at four.If the Athletics sweep the series, the division might get interesting in the last week of the season. So, this should technically qualify as a crucial series, although the sweep of the Yankees earlier this month may ultimately be judged as being bigger. Since the Rangers have just won three division titles since 1972, they haven't played that many crucial series in September. Remember, until they won a division title in 1996, there was the fashionable but not-quite-true mantra that there had never been a meaningful baseball game played in September in Arlington. True or false? Subject to debate. But here, going into the series against the Athletics, are 10 of the biggest series the Rangers have played in club history.
Chasing the champions
The Rangers, after finishing in last place in 1973, made a surprise charge for a division title under manager Billy Martin in 1974 and were six games out of first when the defending world champion Oakland Athletics arrived in Arlington for a three-game series on Sept. 13-15. With 16 games to go, the Rangers needed a three-game sweep of the first-place Athletics and almost pulled it off. Ferguson Jenkins out-dueled Catfish Hunter, 3-1, in a clash of Hall of Famers on Friday night, and Jackie Brown beat Vida Blue, 8-3, with a complete game on Saturday. That left it to Jim Bibby on Sunday, but the Rangers lost 5-1 and their underdog challenge of the champions came up short.
Summer Surge of '77
The Rangers, nine games out and four games under .500 on July 5 1977, had a tremendous summer surge under Billy Hunter, their fourth manager that season. They had won 31 of 40 games and moved into first place on Aug. 18 when the Yankees came into town for a three-game weekend series. The Rangers drew over 90,000 -- a near-miracle at that time -- for the three-game series, but the Yankees pulled off a sweep, knocking the Rangers out of first place. The Rangers still won 94 games that year -- second-most in club history -- but a torrid finish by the Royals left them in the dust. Part of the problem was the Rangers played just two games with the Royals after catching fire on July 5, splitting them on Aug. 10-11 in Arlington.
If they had only known
On Monday, June 8, 1981, Rick Honeycutt beat the Tigers, 8-1, leaving the Rangers a half-game behind the Athletics in the West. The Rangers then lost two of their next three games. On June 11, Ferguson Jenkins lost to the Brewers, 6-3, and the Rangers were still in second place. The next day, the players went out on strike. When the strike was over two months later, Major League Baseball decided to go with a split-season and add an extra round to the playoffs. The Athletics were declared the first-half champions and the Rangers missed out on the first post-season berth in club history. They had a losing record in the second half.
Post All-Star swoon
The Rangers, under the guidance of mercurial manager Doug Rader, spent the 1983 All-Star break with a two-game lead in first place in the West. Then they opened the second half in Toronto and were swept by the Blue Jays. That was the beginning of a complete second half collapse that took the Rangers out of contention. Until they finally won a division title in 1996, the Rangers carried a stigma of being a team that fell apart in the Texas heat over the second half of the season.
Falling to the Angels
The 1986 Rangers were another surprise team. They had lost 99 games the year before but, in Bobby Valentine's first full season as manager, they won 87 games and finished in second place. But they couldn't beat the Angels in Anaheim. They had a 3 1/2-game lead when they arrived in Anaheim on Monday, June 16. Charlie Hough took a no-hitter into the ninth before the Angels scored two runs off him for a 2-1 victory. The Angels ended up sweeping the three-game series, and another one just a week later against the Rangers in Arlington. That Rangers remained in the race until the beginning of September, but never really recovered from the night Hough lost his no-hitter.
White Sox, Bad Blood
The Rangers made a run at a division title under first-year manager Kevin Kennedy in 1993, but ran out of gas on a nine-game road trip in September while trying to run down the White Sox. The Rangers had already lost two of three to both the Angels and Mariners and were 5 1/2 games out when they played the White Sox for three games on Sept. 24-26. Adding to the frustration was Juan Gonzalez was out of the lineup with a back injury. There was also bad blood still simmering between the two teams after the forever-famous Nolan Ryan-Robin Ventura brawl in Arlington. The White Sox ended up winning the first two games of the series before the Rangers salvaged the finale behind Roger Pavlik. The White Sox went on to win the division title with a rotation that included 15-game winner Wilson Alvarez, who the Rangers included in a trade for Harold Baines four years earlier.
The Biggest Wins Ever
The two most important victories in Rangers history took place on Sept. 21-22 in 1996 in Anaheim. The Rangers had just come from Seattle, where they had lost four straight games to the Mariners. Then they lost in 10 innings on a Friday night against the Angels and their lead, which was nine games on Sept. 11, was down to one game over the Mariners. They were tied in the loss column. But on Saturday, John Burkett went eight innings to beat the Angels, 7-1, with the help of home runs from Dave Valle, Gonzalez and Rusty Greer. On Sunday, Ken Hill pitched a complete game as the Rangers won again, 4-1, with home runs from Dean Palmer and Gonzalez. The Rangers held on for their first division title in club history.
Sweeping the Angels
With the rest of the world focused on Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, the Rangers went into the final week of the 1998 season tied with the Angels for first place in the American League West. The two teams met on Sept. 21-23 in Anaheim with the Rangers sending Todd Stottlemyre, Rick Helling and Burkett to the mound. Texas, with outstanding starting pitching, won three games: 9-1, 9-1 and 7-1, and then clinched the division in Seattle later in the week. Helling's victory was his 20th. He is the most recent Rangers pitcher to win 20 games in a season.
Hammering the Athletics
The Rangers didn't run away with the 1999 A.L. Western Division title, but they were in control for almost the entire season. In the second half, their lead never dipped below four games. But the Athletics were still within striking distance when the two teams met in Arlington on the weekend of Sept 24-26. The Athletics were 5 1/2 games behind and needing a sweep. Instead they got swept. Gonzalez hit three home runs as the Rangers won, 12-4, in the first game, Todd Zeile hit a second-inning grand slam in a 10-4 victory on Saturday, and Rafael Palmeiro's grand slam on Sunday was big in a 10-3 win. That one allowed the Rangers to clinch the division title with a victory on their home turf. It's the only time that's ever happened.
The Dellucci Double
On the afternoon of Sept. 23, 2004, the Rangers trailed the Oakland Athletics, 4-2, in the bottom of the ninth. A loss would have dropped them to four games behind the Athletics. They didn't lose. A home run by Hank Blalock and a dramatic two-out, two-run double by David Dellucci gave the Rangers a 5-4 win, one of the most memorable in club history. It also allowed the Rangers to sweep the first-place Athletics and leave them just two games behind with 10 to play. Unfortunately, the Rangers ended up losing six of those 10 and another turnaround season, this one under manager Buck Showalter, came up short. They have not been in the playoffs since 1999. They can change that in Oakland.

A must have for any Pillar fan, every song is amazing, there are no fillars, don't listen to any other review telling you otherwise, if you don't get this album you will regret it! (Despite that, the best ones are For the Love of the Game, Reckless Youth, State of Emergency, and Smiling Down, in case you're interested.) Amazing hard rock with everything there and above all a lifting and inspiring message in every song as Pillar continues to fight for the truth in Christ. You can not pass this one up!
Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
I love Pillar, it's virtually the only thing I listen to while lifting in the gym, but there aren't enough songs on this album like "Bring Me Down", "Crossfire", "Echelon", etc… several are great "For the Love of the Game" is one of them.
Will most likely put the best hard songs on this album on a playlist with all of their other bests, "Fireproof", "Bring Me Down", "Epedimic", etc..
Jesus is Lord!!! and Pillar makes that known LOUD AND CLEAR!!!!!
My boys are back and ready to give you 9 anthems and 1 slow song that will make you cry. Most people didn't like the reckoning, I did, but it was missing the WDWGFH anthems, this cd has returned to give it to you hard, and this cd is the closest to dc talk's Jesus Freak with a bold message but could reach to Christians and Non due to the music. This cd will help bring you back to God, if your not a Christian and want to rock hard, you will still love this cd, Pillar is what the name means, HARD and Cannot be moved easily.
A decent album, albeit a little on the short side. Some good tracks, but it feels like it could have used another few months of writing and producing.
With so many rock bands out there trying to come up with the next anthem tune, it's nice to see that Pillar has returned to their anthemic ways with "For The Love Of The Game." This time around, Pillar is rocking harder and heavier and still manage to squeeze in some melodic tunes. Unlike their two previous albums, the late 80's/early 90's metal and hard rock influences bleed through. I can hear a little bit of Def Leppard and a whole lotta Skid Row (especially in "Reckless Youth," which borders on plagiarism). There are plenty of songs to shout to that beckon one to remember tunes like "Frontline." Some of the highlights of this album include the title track, "Get Back," "Turn It Up" and the wonderful "Smiling Down." My personal favorite tune is "State of Emergency."
Hard rock fans will rejoice with this album and its sound so rooted in hair metal and hard rock. This is not only an uplifting album, but a great album to relieve stress to. Highly recommended to anybody who loves great hard rock, nu metal, and hair metal.

Over 500,000 acres of rice are grown each year in the Sacramento Valley. Before the Connelly-Areias-Chandler Rice Straw Burning Reduction Act of 1991 (AB 1379, Ch. 787, 1991) (Act), most of these acres were burned to control rice disease and prepare the fields for the following year's crop. In order to reduce the public health impacts of rice straw burning, the Legislature voted in 1991 to phase-down the burning of rice straw in the Sacramento Valley.
This phase-down occurred over a period of nearly ten years, with progressively fewer acres of rice fields eligible to be burned each year. Starting in 2001 (the final year of the phase-down), the Act sets the limit on the rice acreage which can be burned at 25% of an individual grower's planted acreage, not to exceed 125,000 acres basin-wide. In addition to these basin-wide acreage caps, individual fields can only be burned for disease control.
In an effort to provide some relief to the growers from the cost difference between historical burning and alternate, and more costly, methods of disposing of rice straw, one provision of the Act stated that the reductions created by the phase-down be considered surplus so that growers could bank Emission Reduction Credits (ERCs).
Our District participated in the working groups in the early 1990s which led to the development of a Manual of Procedures (MOP) and model rule. The ARB and EPA participated in these working group meetings. Our District subsequently promulgated our Rule 506, Biomass Emission Reduction Credits and Banking in 1996 to allow for these rice ERCs to be banked. In 2003, our District issued ERCs based on one application for the cessation of open field agricultural burning of rice straw. ARB and EPA commented on these credits and consequentially these credits were not "federally recognized" and could not be used at a major source. As a result, these credits could not be used.
A working group was formed by the Sacramento Valley Air Basin Control Council (BCC), which included the districts in the Sacramento Valley and the California Rice Commission. The goal of the working group was to work with the stakeholders to develop a model rule for banking rice ERCs which ensures that credits generated are federally recognized. Through the collective efforts of the group, a model rule was developed, along with a support document (White Paper) that outlined the elements required in order to obtain federal recognition of the credits.
In February 19, 2009, the Placer County Board of Directors adopted the model rule, Rule 516, Rice Straw Emission Reduction Credits.
Yolo-Solano AQMD adopted their version of this model rule in December 2008 and Feather River AQMD adopted it in April 2009.
For more information on Rice Biomass Emission Reduction Credits (ERCs), please call Mr. Don Duffy at 530-745-2336 or e-mail him at email@example.com

Let me first list the positives:Cruise Director-Richard Spacey was the best I have ever experienced in all my years of cruising! Activities Manager Jamie was also excellent and the two combined were unbeatable. Richard had many funny short movies he had made of cruising adventures on the state room TV, loved them!! Also the Morning Show they both did was something I looked forward to daily. They read every persons shout outs and that's something I wish each cruise did, it was a very special personal touch.
Dining room-food was excellent except the desserts, but the meats, soups, and service was all 5 star.Had dinner in Portofino's, and the filet and tiramisu best I ever had, and I am some what of a foodie.Our balcony was HUGE! Had tea each morning on it, room service was first rate!Our Cabin Attendant Roberto Orr was the best I have ever had. RCI is known for excellent service, but he went above and beyond daily for us. Bed was extremely comfortable with nice linens. Wind Jammer-Food was excellent, except desserts were so so, although the cookies were great! Service was the best of any RCI cruise to date. The wait staff not only kept the tables cleared but always offered to get our beverages. They were wonderful! The carving station excellent, mashed potatoes amazing and that's hard for massed produced. The French Fries best I ever had, and burgers were excellent! Not greasy or dry.
Non Alcoholic drinks ie: ice tea, lemonade, juices were overly watered down and terrible, and if you are not a soda drinker (as I am not) then you are in trouble for beverages. There was a wonderful greeter that was either singing songs or making balloon animals. It was very inviting.Shows-Excellent, Drew Thomas magician is a must see!! I am still trying to figure out how he did some of his tricks.
The ships entertainers/ singers were outstanding. Often there is one great singer then the rest are ok, not this cruise, they had 3 phenomenal singers, the male singer (sorry don't remember the name) did a Phantom of the Opera that was better than the performance I saw on Broadway, same with the Female singer that did Cabaret!Acrobats that did the Silks performance was spell binding! Beautiful and again some of the best I have ever seen!!NOT so good:The Hot Tubs were often closed and when often were filthy! So much so I reported it to one of the crew.
Pools were closed, and its hot in the Caribbean in June, last thing you need is a closed pool!Desserts were mediocre at best. I hear Carnival has a Chocolate Lava cake served nightly that is to die for, so I am actually going to try my first Carnival cruise just to see the difference in food. Wind Jammer manager made way too many announcements. State room bathroom is very small and shower is tiny. There was no hot water in the sink faucet, but plenty in the shower. Activities-It was not well announced where to sign up. One of our group had been looking forward to being in the Belly flop competition, but was told he was too late to participate. He had tried to sign up 15 minutes before hand. It was not announced in advance where to sign up and by what time. Same for all competitions.
Cruise staffer Rebecca was terrible, had the personality of a wet noodle, needs to find another profession.
Sail Away was boring and not many good spots on the ship to watch pulling away.Final thoughts-I would highly recommend this cruise although June is warm I think nov /dec are better for weather. Ship is amazing! Staff and food wonderful. Just don't count on good desserts or non alcoholic drinks.

Wordpress multisite and ajax
Hi everyone,
I am delving into using multisite in Wordpress. I have a main site which is just a language selection screen.
I have then have a /us/ for USA users and a /uk/ for British users.
All is working fine except for loading posts via an ajax request in the /us/ site.
I have followed this tutorial. http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/get...and-wordpress/
The problem I am having is when the page scrolls and makes the ajax request, it is looking for the ajaxLoop.js file in the theme which is installed in the /us/ and the root site. As the file soes not exist in the root site, I naturally get a 404.
Any ideas on why my /us/ theme when making an ajax request would try to call it from the root site?
Thaks for any help,

The United States is one of the most diverse countries on earth, jam packed full of amazing sights from St. Patrick's cathedral in New York to Mount Hollywood California.The Northeast region is where it all started. Thirteen British colonies fought the American Revolution from here and won their independence in the first successful colonial rebellion in history. Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.

Lens clarity is very high and frame construction seems solid. All that with a super price. I liked them so much that I immediately ordered another pair so I would have them to wear for a long time.
I am really pleased with these glasses The last pairs that i bought (from elsewhere) The lenses cracked from sitting in the sun These are very nice
I purchased the Man O Man sun-bifocal glasses, for style and quality. being in Law Inforcement I needed a good sunglass and reader glass in one and the Man O Man sun-readers fit the bill exactly. Very pleased.
These glasses are great. They take a beating and are always dropped and banged around. Very good value for the money.
This is my first experience with bifocal sunglasses. I love the fact that I can lie out by the pool with only one pair of glasses! I will not hesitate to order from this company again.

Openings in LosAngelis's Online Fantasy Football League
Openings on the venerable En Fuego Fantasy League
Due to our transition from an in-person auction to an online auction, we have several openings in our football fantasy league, which is entering its ninth year of operation.
First up: There are no cash prizes. Entry fee is $20, which pays for the Sportsline website and eBay fees for auctioning off players. We have long decided that our league is so competitive already that playing for money would result in mafia hits, so we play for pride, fun, and a traveling trophy which is engraved with your name, team name, and year. It's about three feet tall and very cool looking.
We are looking for committed owners who love football and are willing to keep up on their rosters each week. While we ask anyone interested to email, it is not first-come, first-serve. We take a lot of pride in the friendly competition, and want to make sure we have good, committed, friendly owners that keep the integrity of the league up.
The original "Three Amigos†of the league are still intact, myself and two other guys who are very competitive. I am the league commissioner, and have been praised for my attention to detail and making of a fun interactive website. Message board use is highly encouraged, or the other owners will make fun of you on it. We have five other members who have joined in the last five years.
We have a $110 salary cap.
Lineup deadline is 5 minutes before gametime for each player.
Owners may set lineups.
Owners may make trades post season.
Add/drops are handled by a waivers process. The waivers process runs everyday until the season starts, at which time the process will run on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The waiver order resets after each weeks' games.
Dropped players remain on waivers for at least 1 day(s). Trades are subject to a 1-day voting period, where at most 2 objections are allowed. Trades receiving more the 2 objections are sent to the commissioner for approval.
No trades can be made after the trade deadline of 11/26/04.
Playoffs start in Week 15 and last for 2 Weeks. 4 teams will make the playoffs, while the other 8 teams will have their own playoffs in seperate brackets for pride.
The starting lineup/total players shall include
8/16 total players
Game scores shall be determined by a combination of offensive and defensive accumulated point totals. The team with the greater amount of points, shall be selected as the game winner. The following criteria shall be utilized in the scoring system:
Offensive Points:
TD's Passing / 3 points
TD's Rushing / 6 points
TD's Receiving / 6 points
Field Goal / 3 points
Extra Point / 1 point
2 point Conversion / 2 points rush/receiving, 1 point passing
Defensive Points
TD's by Defense / 6 points (Scored in any manner)
Safety / 2 points
Interception / 1 point
Fumble Recovery / 1 point
QB Sack / 1 point
Special Teams Points
TD on Kick Off or Punt Return / 6 points
Bonus Points
Each (50) yards Rushing / 1 point
Each (50) yards Receiving / 1 point
Each (100) yards Passing / 1 point
* Tie games during the regular season will remain a tie and be recorded as such.
This is the most innovative use of online auctioning I've come across.
We will be using eBay to auction off most of the players in our league.
We will be beginning on August 19, and continue through September 3.
Each day, ten players will be placed on the league eBay mypage and be up for three days of bidding. At the end of the auction, the player will be placed on the Sportsline page so everyone knows who has spots to fill and how much cap space they have left.
The first 12 days of auctioning will be scripted, unless we agree in advance to change one (injury, mystery retirement, etc.). The last day of auctions will be owner initiated players that are brought up to bid.
At the end of the 13 days of auctions, there will be about 72 players left to place on rosters. This will be handled through a waiver process where teams will rank their positions they need to fill on the waiver wire, and waivers will run each night until all rosters are filled.
You will want to be able to access the internet probably once per day from the 19th through the 8th. If you are away from the internet or don't like to go on that much, you may want to think against this league.
There is one injured reserve spot. It does count against the cap.
All owners will be required to create a new eBay user name that includes the name of their team in the names. All owners are also required to have Yahoo Messenger, the chat program we use with our league.
All team names are required to have a home city, which cannot be a present-day NFL city. We encourage creativity with your team names. Past names have included the Los Angeles Fighting Amish, the Khovd Marmots, the Titletown Owners, the Brooklyn Bombers, and the Jackson Hole Posse.
We will ask that the $20 is sent to me by August 6. I will be out of state from the 13th until the 25th, so the assistant commissioner will be handling any questions and contacting me if necessary.
If you have any questions, or would like to throw your hat into the ring, please contact me at [email protected] Serious inquiries only, please.Have you ever seen a race of turtles, and they all go the wrong way instead of towards the finish line?
Welcome to the NFC North.

Compass Points
Experiences which expose students to intellectual and professional pursuits as a means of clarifying their passion while cultivating a sense of calling and responsibility through discernment of their gifts, talents, skills and potential
Writer and theologian Frederick Buechner describes true vocation as "where your deep gladness meets the world's deep need." Finding that meeting place necessitates immersion in professional environments to determine which tasks cultivate gladness and which settings present abiding needs. Connecting the quest for a career to one's interior journey lends balance to the process. This compass point enables students to apply academic interests to prospective workplace settings, to sample possibilities for employment that will not merely be one's livelihood, but the realization of a calling. Planning for the future can play a powerful role in getting a job. Students will grow adept at articulating what they can offer an organization, an inclination that benefits both employer and employee.
Examples of projects that cultivate a sense of vocation:
• Completing internships in both corporate and non-profit settings;
• Researching an interest area and related occupations;
• Interviewing people in various fields of work;
• Traveling to an area where a particular need of the world is evident;
• Completing a series of exercises related to vocational discernment.

NEW ORLEANS - New Orleans' City Council will once again have a vacancy after District "B" Council member Stacy Head claimed one of the at-large seats this weekend.
Head beat former Council member Cynthia Willard-Lewis by less than 300 votes and as expected, experts say turnout played a big role.
After a tug-of-war of voting returns Saturday night, Head defeated Willard-Lewis by just 281 votes for the city council at-large seat.
"It's been such a long, exciting, but hard day that tonight, we're just in the spirit of celebration," Head said Saturday after the win.
Willard-Lewis didn't concede Saturday night, saying instead she'll keep a close eye on the opening of the machines on Tuesday to make sure all votes were counted accurately and no votes were left uncounted.
"The actual numbers are less than one person per precinct and the art of politics is about crunching the numbers," Willard-Lewis said.
Election analyst Greg Rigamer said the interest in the race generated turnout larger than in the primary, with 24 percent of voters casting a ballot.
He said voters crossing racial lines pushed Head to victory with Head even securing more than 20 percent of precincts that are mostly African-American.
"We expected it to be very close but we're really excited that it came out the way that it did," Head said.
Experts said Mayor Mitch Landrieu's endorsement of Willard-Lewis late in the game helped narrow the gap between the two candidates.
With Head now in a leadership role on the Council, one question that has arisen is whether that endorsement by Landrieu will affect their working relationship. Head said it won't.
"When the mayor is moving forward doing the right thing, which is the vast majority of the time, I will continue to stand with him, support him and move those agendas forward," Head said. "When I do believe that he's not making the best decisions for the city, I'll be very careful in my dialogue with him."
The seat opened up after Arnie Fielkow resigned. Now the City Council will appoint an interim replacement for Head in District "B" until a new council member can be elected to finish out her term.

Vialli: Celtic deserved penalties
Ex-Juventus captain Gianluca Vialli believes Celtic should have been awarded penalty kicks during Tuesday night's 3-0 home defeat to Juventus.
• Blog: Proud of the Bhoys
• Juve blog: Quality decisive
• Brewin: Juve steal Celtic hopes
Celtic captain Scott Brown and striker Gary Hooper were manhandled in the penalty box as Juventus employed rugby-style tackling methods in a bid to halt the Scottish champions from exploiting set-pieces, with manager Neil Lennon saying after the game that the referee was "very pro-Juventus".
Vialli agrees that the match officials were lenient in their decision making during the Champions League last-16 first leg at Parkhead.
"There were definitely some situations that should have seen Celtic awarded penalty kicks," Vialli told talkSPORT. "It is a thin line in what you can do and what you can't do and Juventus went too far in this game.
"The defenders can be clever and use everything within the laws of the game to stop the strikers scoring goals and, while some pulling is allowed, you need to be clever. Against Celtic, in my opinion, Juventus took this too far."
Vialli, who was a Champions League winner with Juventus back in 1996, suggested the controversy over the officiating at Parkhead has not created much of a stir in the Italian media as their focus has been on the progress of a Juventus side he suggests could now reach the final at Wembley in May.
"We all thought the Juventus performance was terrific," the former Chelsea manager added. "Celtic were worthy opponents and played at a high tempo, but Juventus exposed the weaknesses in the Celtic defence and defended very well themselves, without panicking.
"I would say 3-0 is not a fair result on the balance of the game, but Juventus came on very strong at the end and there has to be a chance now that they can get to the final.
"Juventus did not start too well after the Christmas break in Italy, but that may be because they were a long way ahead in the title race and didn't have the pressure they needed. Having someone breathing on your neck can be good for you. Under pressure, they perform well."
Celtic midfielder Kris Commons, meanwhile, has said "certain individuals let the team down" and singled Efe Ambrose out for particular criticism.
Celtic enjoyed the lion's share of possession and had significantly more efforts on goal on Tuesday, but Juve scored from three of their four shots on target.
"It was just very sloppy individual mistakes - something you'd probably get away with on a playground, not in the last 16 of the Champions League," Commons told journalists after the match. "There are certain individuals who let the team down."
The first goal, scored by Alessandro Matri after three minutes, came after an error from Ambrose, who also failed to equalise when presented with a free header and lost possession to allow Mirko Vucinic to score the third goal.
Commons believes the Nigeria international - who only returned from African Nations Cup duty on the morning of the game - must take the blame.
"Look, the manager picked him," he said. "The manager pulled him to one side and asked him if he was feeling okay. He said he was feeling brilliant. If he wasn't feeling okay then he should have said so. If he felt good then he should have put in a better performance."
He did accept, however, that the Bhoys' presence in the second round owed much to good defensive work in the first round, when they finished second in a group containing Barcelona, Benfica and Spartak Moscow.
"Hopefully this is just a one-off," he added. "The back four have made errors which have probably cost us the tie, but it's partly down to them why we're here in the first place. It's just a bitter one to swallow."
Commons also shared the view that Celtic were not given adequate protection by the officials.
"Gary Hooper was pulled down to the ground on far too many occasions and we got no rewards," Commons added. "You've got a referee there, a guy behind the goal, a linesman - the whole idea of the official behind the goal is to look out for this sort of stuff.
"If he can't identify when people are being hauled, manhandled, wrestled to the floor, then I don't think he should be in a job. He's 10 or 15 yards away and if it was a clear foul, it should have been a penalty.
"He said if you do it again they'll get a penalty - that was in the first half. He kept stopping it and booking people and telling people to stop it. It clearly had no effect because right up until the 91st minute when we had a corner, it was still going on."

TROY, N.Y. – Snow emergencies are typically a sore topic for many who live in Troy but city council members are not admitting they need to do a better job by cleaning up after snowstorms.
The last time the City of Troy declared a snow emergency was back in 2002, more than a decade ago.
"The City of Troy has been a municipality for a long time; it's always been located in Upstate New York. It snows and it snows a lot at time," said City Council Member Jim Gordon.
Gordon said he has been flood with phone calls from homeowners who tell him they cannot park in front of their own homes. He said it is about time the City of Troy came up with a plan.
"We have alleys snowed in. If there's a fire we are not getting them down those alleys," said Troy Mayor Lou Rosamilia.
Rosamilia announced an emergency declaration effective Thursday morning.
"Even though we don't call it a snow emergency we are providing one by posting," said Rosamilia
Those postings are signs along specific streets like Washington Street, 15th Street, along Congress to Hoosick and a few others. If a resident is parked on one of those streets, they are advised to move their car because it will be ticketed and towed between 6 a.m. and 4 p.m. Thursday.
"It's somewhat of a snow emergency plan. Would have been good last week," said Gordon.
Rosamilia also said having older, narrower, city streets is the reason the snow emergency that was drafted years ago wouldn't be very effective now.
"Having enough humans, enough people to tow became problematic," said Rosamilia
According to the Mayor, the city does plan to develop a new snow removal plan for the next winter season.

Quebec-based Intellimix has been appointed as Robe Show Lighting's new Canadian distributor. The deal was made at ETS-LDI 2005 in Orlando, FL.
Intellimix, founded in 1996, were looking for a new moving light brand to add to their portfolio. As Robe has started becoming popular in the territory particularly over the last year, it was a natural choice.
According to company president Stephen Kosters, Intellimix has become a leading player in the Canadian rental market because it has kept its eye on what is cutting edge technology.
Robe Show Lighting's MD Josef Valchar says, "It's great to have Intellimix onboard. I am confident they will do a great job for us."

Rick Steves Travel Blog: Blog Gone Europe
I'm sharing my travel experiences, candid opinions and what's on my mind. If you think it's inappropriate for a travel writer to stir up discussion on his blog with political observations and insights gained from traveling abroad, you may not want to read any further. — Rick
- We are monitoring this blog carefully for inappropriate posts. Before you post, read our Community Guidelines.
Still Screaming
The Scream, by Edvard Munch, seems to be everyone's favorite Norwegian painting. The spot (in Oslo's Ekeberg Sculpture Park) where Munch actually painted it now has a framed replica, so anyone can do their own scream. If you ever just feel like screaming, this is a great spot.
Oslo's New Ekeberg Sculpture Park
The buzz in Oslo is its new modern sculpture park, just opened in 2013, with stimulating art sprinkled through a forest with grand city views.
The 63-acre park is a 10-minute tram ride southeast of the center. The project was a gift to the city from the Ringnes family (the Norwegian brewery tycoon, who — like Coors in Denver and Carlsberg in Copenhagen — has lots of money for grand city projects).
The park has a long history, from evidence of the Stone Age people who chose to live here 7,000 years ago, to the memory of this being a Nazi military cemetery in WWII.
Today, its unique feature is the many modern art installations you'll come upon as you hike — like this work, by Tony Oursler.
Afternoon Storms in Scandinavia
This shot (in Sweden's Uppsala) shows weather I've experienced almost every afternoon for the last month. Throughout northern Europe, it's been extremely hot and muggy. With all that moisture sucked up into the atmosphere, around 4 p.m. every afternoon, dark clouds descend, birds rush for cover, you smell that metallic dusty fragrance sidewalks give off just before a deluge, and the sky unloads — sending everyone scrambling.
By the way, do you know what I mean about that delightful scent a dry sidewalk gives off before a big rain? What is that, anyway?
Norway's Immigration Challenges: "We're Here to Help You…Leave"
Norwegians try to be open to immigration. But like any small, homogeneous society that does not have a melting pot heritage, assimilating lots of immigrants is a challenge here. I was almost shocked by signs on the trams reading "Going Home with a Future: For information about voluntary return, contact…"
When I asked my Norwegian friends about this delicate issue, they explained that they see two kinds of immigrants: those who want to become Norwegians, and those who just want to work hard for a while, earn some serious money, and go home and be set up. But many immigrants from that second category kind of get stuck here, never intending to really settle in, unhappy, and a drag on Norwegian society. This program is hoping to nudge those who wish to return to their homeland…with a little help from the Norwegian government.
A Public Television Pledge Break from Oslo's Akers River
One of the most enjoyable activities in Oslo is to ride the subway to the top of its Akers River Valley and stroll downhill through a long riverside park — once the city's churning industrial zone, with factories belching and waterwheels spinning.
The Akers River, though only about five miles long, powered Oslo's early industry: flour mills in the 1300s, sawmills in the 1500s, and Norway's Industrial Revolution in the 1800s.
Along the way, I was chatting with my Norwegian guide, Aksel (who'd never heard of a "pledge drive"), about how different countries pay for their public broadcasting. I was astounded by how much Norwegians are taxed just to own a TV, but those I talked to all seemed to understand the value of quality news (that doesn't need to be dressed up as entertainment in order to sell ads and be viable), high culture accessible to the masses, children's programming that isn't a tool of corporations marketing things to kids, and World Cup coverage with no commercial breaks.
I spend a lot of time traveling around the USA during pledge drive season to explain to Americans why they should kick in $100 or so a year for public broadcasting. This Norwegian and his countrymen value public broadcasting at the rate of $500 a year per family, and willingly pay that tax just to own a TV. I should bring this Norwegian with me to my next pledge drive.
The View from Oslo
In Oslo, there's a concerted effort to make the harborfront a people's domain. This ambitious urban renewal project, called Fjord City (Fjordbyen) — which kicked off years ago with the Aker Brygge development (now Oslo's well-established harborside promenade and restaurant row), and proceeded with the construction of the dramatic new Opera House (its white-marble roof famously sloping into the fjord, creating a public plaza that lets you walk on top of the theater) — is making remarkable progress in turning the formerly industrial waterfront into a thriving people zone. This clip gives you a glimpse at a city truly reinventing itself.
Futuristic Oslo
Oslo is a classic old Norwegian city. But in recent visits, I'm amazed at some of the dramatic changes going on here. The new Oslo is both architecturally fascinating and extremely livable. These photos illustrate some of the ways that Oslo just keeps chugging into the future.
Oslo's Aker Brygge development has made its harbor a people-friendly promenade. Each night it's a Nordic paseo. Just a few years ago, this stretch of harbor was an industrial wasteland. Today it's part of a huge project pushing out the industry to make room for the people of Oslo. And since my last visit, the development has doubled in size with the construction of a brand-new housing development called Tjuvholmen — a futuristic mix of condos, shops, offices, galleries, and a little beach facing the open fjord.
I enjoyed a delightful, quiet moment watching seagulls and ferries come and go as the setting sun shone on the old fortress in Oslo's harbor. Oslo's fancy yacht club-style stretch of harborfront is a trendy restaurant row. But I didn't feel like a fancy dinner — just a simple picnic picked up from a grocery store a block inland. Fortunately, the harborfront also comes with lots of picnic tables, comfy wooden lounges for two, and places where its citizens who can't afford pricey waterfront restaurants can enjoy these same delightful views.
All over Europe, little Manhattans are springing up. You can read in the newspapers about slow economies, but when you actually travel around, it seems that northern Europe is on a building binge. This new strip of towering office complexes — nicknamed "the Bar Code District" — finally gives Oslo the modern skyline it never had.
Oslo's Holmenkollen Ski Jump: Old, New, Great Views, and Big Thrills
I've left Stockholm, and have landed in Norway's capital — Oslo. My first stop is a famous old ski jump that has a fresh new look.
A top sight in Oslo is the legendary Holmenkollen Ski Jump. One of the world's oldest ski jumps (from 1892), Holmenkollen has hosted many championships, including the 1952 Winter Olympics. To win the privilege of hosting the 2011 World Ski Jump Championship, Oslo built a bigger jump to match modern ones that had been built elsewhere. You can ride an elevator to the top and stand right at the starting gate, just like an athlete, and get a feel for this daredevil sport. The jump empties into a 30,000-seat amphitheater, and you'll enjoy one of the best possible views of Oslo.
As you ponder the jump, consider how modern athletes continually push the boundaries of their sport. The first champion here (in 1892) jumped 21 meters. In 1930, it took a 50-meter jump to win. In 1962, it was 80 meters, and in 1980, the champ cracked 100 meters. Most recently, a jump of 140 meters took first place.
While the view is exciting from the top, even more exciting is watching thrill-seekers rocket down the course on a zipline from the same lofty perch (600 Norwegian kronor per trip — that's $100…yes, Norway's expensive).
Stockholm Fun
I'm having a great time in Stockholm — biking around the city, placing a call from my own private telephone, and bumping into one of those Rick Steves tour groups.
Stockholm is one of Europe's most beautiful cities — and it's like none other for joyriding on a bike. Bike paths are a city-planning priority, and they run along the entire harbor. And parklike islands are biking utopias. Djurgården ("Animal Garden") was the king's private hunting preserve. Today it's a vast park dotted with fun sights. I'd make a point to bike in the early evening, when lots of people are out, the light is warm, and colors pop. Getting a bike is cheap and easy in Stockholm (there's a good rental place and a welcoming info center with good biking maps right next to the bridge that connects Djurgården to the rest of the city).
While almost no one ever uses my phone these days, every time I'm in Stockholm, I drop by the cathedral in the Old Town (Gamla Stan) just to hear the friendly dial tone on Riks telefon.
While in Sweden, I bumped into one of our happy tour groups. Scandinavia is Europe's most expensive region, so it's our challenge to be sure this particular itinerary is as good a value as possible. And, of our 35 different Rick Steves tour routes, Scandinavia is selling really well this year. As a Norwegian myself, I'm particularly happy that we have a new guide — Paul Johansen, our first from Norway — who's getting rave reviews. The entire group thought we looked like cousins, which — in a Viking sort of way — we are. Can you spot Paul in this photo?
Tonight It's Leftovers — Swedish Snapshots from My Trip
I'm really enjoying my time in Sweden. Here are a few random photos that capture what I'm experiencing — as well as some practical advice.
Sweden may not have staggering fjords like Norway, but all along its coast, you'll find some impressive abs. The city of Kalmar has opened a wonderful new beach, called Sundsbadet, just beyond its castle. On a hot summer day, this is a festive and happy slice of Swedish life — well worth a stroll even if you're not actually "going to the beach." This new facility put Kalmar (quite popular with RVers and the yachting crowd) on the fun-in-the-sun map. With showers, snack stands, sandcastles, beach access for wheelchair users (a ramp goes right into the water), and views of the castle, it's a delight. And if you enjoy people-watching, it's a combination Swedish beauty pageant/tattoo show.
This dinner I enjoyed on a train ride through Sweden was a $5 feast. Sure, I can afford a good restaurant meal even in expensive Sweden. But a cheap, healthy, and fast picnic helps the train ride go by quicker. Even in the most expensive corner of Europe, you can eat well and affordably. Convenience stores are big throughout Scandinavia (with a 7-Eleven on seemingly every corner). While convenient and cheaper than any restaurant, these places charge about double what you'll pay for basic food in a grocery store. With a trip to the grocery store, I can get a big, cheap bag of almonds to munch on for days. A kilogram bag of carrots reminds me of the days when I didn't know how to communicate a smaller amount and ended up with a kilo of whatever I was buying. A big bag of carrots may be cheap…but it lasted for days' worth of snacks. Yogurt is drinkable, cheap, and tasty anywhere in Europe. A box of juice cost about two dollars (always look for "100%" — easy to spot in any language — or else you'll get a sugary "juice drink"). And the main course: the ham-and-cheese sandwich I pocketed from my breakfast buffet. (I wouldn't advocate this petty theft publicly. But somehow I don't feel bad stealing a sandwich from my hotel breakfast buffet in Scandinavia, considering how much of the room cost is taxes — about $50 a night — that support a lavish social system I'll never benefit from).
I used to dread having to get a haircut in Europe. It was one time that the language barrier had real and enduring consequences — and besides, finding a barber took precious time out of my sightseeing day. But for the last few years, I've relished the opportunity to get a haircut wherever I am in Europe because it gets me in a chair talking with a real person who's not in the tourist trade. Here in Växjö, in the middle of Sweden, I enjoyed getting to know Maria — an immigrant to Sweden from Bosnia — who gave me unique insight into Swedish culture today.
When I'm researching my guidebooks in Europe, I have to be disciplined about staying on top of my "inputting." Each day I have, on average, six hours with a local guide. That's a lot of notes. And each hotel room becomes my office: I arrange my desk for the best light, and sort through my marked-up maps, business cards, and scribbles in my chapters. If notes are not dealt with in a shipshape way, all that hard work in the streets can be ultimately wasted.

The Israel Air Force is reviewing a new hyperspectral sensor for unmanned aerial
vehicles that it believes may be the breakthrough it needs for early detection
of tunnels and underground passageways in the Gaza Strip and
Developed by Elbit Systems, the hyperspectral imaging technology
shows the wavelengths of materials, enabling an operator to identify the unique
spectral signature of each target.
"This means that if a bush doesn't
match the natural vegetation in an area we will be able to detect it," an IAF
officer said.
The airborne hyper-spectral system is complemented by a
ground segment that provides automatic interpretation of the images/data, and a
mission planning system.
In addition to military applications, the new
technology can also be applied for commercial and scientific use, such as by
measuring pollution levels, testing water and searching for mineral
Elbit said it has designed the new payload for installation on
the Hermes 900 unmanned-aerial vehicle and the older Hermes 450, which has been
in IAF-service for a number of years, and according to foreign media reports is
frequently used to fire missiles at terrorist targets in the Gaza Strip. The air
force recently bought a number of Hermes 900s for evaluation.
The Hermes
900 can carry almost double the payload of the smaller Hermes 450, including an
electro-optic camera, laser designator, radar, and electronic intelligence and
electronic warfare equipment.

Annie Golden, Emma Hunton, Capathia Jenkins, AnnMarie Milazzo Set for Readings of New Bill Russell-Janet Hood Musical Unexpected Joy
By Andrew Gans
The York Theatre Company — which is under the leadership of producing artistic director James Morgan and executive director Andrew Levine — in association with Jim Kierstead will present readings of the new musical Unexpected Joy beginning June 22.
Part of the York's Developmental Reading Series, staged readings are set for June 22 at 4 PM, June 26 at 4 PM and June 28 at 1 PM.
Unexpected Joy has book and lyrics by Bill Russell and music by Janet Hood.
Directed by Tony Award nominee Sheryl Kaller with music direction by Jodie Moore, the four-member cast will feature Annie Golden, Emma Hunton, Capathia Jenkins and AnnMarie Milazzo.
Unexpected Joy, according to press notes, is described as such: "Three generations of female singers, long-held family tensions and a week together where change is in the air – Joy, a baby boomer pop star, is visited by her daughter, Rachel and granddaughter Tamara. Rachel is married to a prominent televangelist, so Joy is reluctant to divulge that she's planning to marry Lou, another singer who happens to be a woman. A week with all four together is bound to lead to tension, laughter, discoveries and happiness that really is unexpected. Let the sparks and music fly!"
The free readings, which are open to the public, will be held at The York Theatre Company at Saint Peter's (entrance on East 54th Street, just east of Lexington Avenue). To make reservations, visit the readings page at www.yorktheatre.org.

It's seeming more and more like a good idea for Port St. Lucie Mayor Patricia Christensen to begin her life after politics.
She should seriously consider resigning sooner rather than later.
The e-mail she sent out criticizing police for the arrest of her son was boneheaded. But, she can get a little understanding as a mother concerned about her son and her difficult relation with police.
But, now she's under criminal investigation for alleged financial misdeeds during her campaign for mayor.
That doesn't make her guilty. Even if she is charged with something, that doesn't make her guilty. Maybe it was all about misunderstandings and sloppy paperwork. Maybe.
But, her status as mayor and the stain the allegations may have on her fellow City Council members and the people of Port St. Lucie is troubling.
She's going to be leaving office soon. She can resign early and simply state she wants to devote her time and energies to clearing her name. That's reasonable. Hopefully, she'll be able to do that.
Christensen is a target for some of her constituents who want to bring her down. Resigning would not be giving in to them. It may be doing what is right at this time, for everyone with an interest in the reputation and the future of the city.
There may be no fire where there is this smoke. But, there's unwelcome smoke nonetheless.
