Go To Extremes: Glaciers and Desert
Verdant and desert, cool and warm, glaciers and sand dunes, these are the extremes of Chile. If you think of a map of the world and fold it in half, the south of Chile lines up with the Canadian Rockies, and the north of Chile lines up with the California desert. Except that the Andes are taller than the rockies, and the Atacama drier and larger than the desert in the southwest of the United States. So what's it like to be in a country that has both extremes, such that you could visit them both on a single trip? In a word: stunning.

Baños: Gateway to the Amazon
Some twenty years ago, Baños hit Ecuador's tourism scene. It was a nothing little town that suddenly became the Mecca for European – mainly German – renegades of the modern life. They decided Baños was a perfect place to settle, far from the ills of developed society, in a picture-perfect setting amidst jungles and waterfalls and a dramatic active volcano.

Welcome to the Jungle: Peru's Piece of Heaven on Earth
With its towering trees and endless landscape, the Peruvian Amazon is quickly becoming a hot-spot for environmentally conscious travelers looking to experience one of the most diverse ecosystems in the world. In an attempt to meet demand, ecolodges in the Amazon jungle are becoming more and more common. While each has an array of amenities, unique itineraries and different opportunities to see the plants and animals that inhabit the rainforest, Refugio Amazonas' commitment to sustainable travel makes it stand out from the rest.

Galápagos: Recommended Reading
The Galápagos Islands are a destination that will inevitably stay in your mind long after you visit them, and conversely, can live with you long before you've actually booked a visit, thanks to the abundant literature and many nature shows that highlight their wonders. They are certainly the stuff of fantasy. A coveted destination, no doubt, those who become obsessed with this one-and-only archipelago, always want to go deeper, know more about it, dreaming of returning if they've been or one day, finally, stand on its shores, admire its wildlife and swim in its seas, if they haven't.

Islas Ballestas: Sea Lions and Dolphins and Penguins, Oh My!
While it's called "the poor man's Galapagos," las Islas Ballestas are full of rich natural treasures. The magnificent islands, comprised of jagged rocks that the sea has eroded away and turned into caves, caverns and arches, jut out of the Pacific Ocean. It is here that dozens of sea life species seek refuge.

Planning ahead for a Southern Summer: Ferry from Puerto Montt to Puerto Natales
Of all the landscapes that Chile has to offer, from desert to coast, glaciers and starry nights, perhaps the most striking and most photogenic is Chilean Patagonia's landscape. There are many routes you can take to experience this stark landscape, water a hundred colors of blue and small stands of arctic beech, open water, icebergs and wild rivers.

Worth a Thousand Words: Tips and Tricks to Get the Perfect Shots
If a picture is worth a thousand words, the photos travelers take on their adventures through Peru are enough to fill the pages of many a novel. While we will undoubtedly remember their four-day trek to Machu Picchu, over time the details - like how the scenery looked under the cloudless, bright blue sky - can be forgotten. Thankfully photos take us back to those moments in time that might otherwise be lost.
That's why I recently sat with wildlife photographer Jeff Cremer of Rainforest Expeditions. He and his team not only take curious travelers to the Amazon, they also provide high-end equipment and training to travelers eager to learn how to snap shots like a pro. After all, pictures are one of the best souvenirs to bring home with you – why not have the best ones possible?

Cabo de la Vela: Cape of Kites
Nestled on the western side of the Guajira peninsula, a remote spit of desert split between Colombia and Venezuela that juts out into the Caribbean, the pocket-sized town of Cabo de la Vela has quietly become a major eco-tourism destination – for those daring enough to brave the trip to try to find it. A two-hour drive from the nearest highway, Cabo de la Vela is the definition of "off the beaten path," a tiny fishing village with a few houses and restaurants, a nearby lighthouse and some of the most beautiful water on Colombia's Caribbean coast.
Weekend Getaway: Búzios
French bombshell Brigitte Bardot didn't discover Armação dos Búzios (Búzios for short) but when she decided in 1964, at the top of her fame, to hide away in this small, unknown fishing village north of Rio de Janeiro for three months, she helped the world discover Búzios. The timeline of this gorgeous Brazilian beach resort, home to 23 some-odd beaches, each more perfect than the next, can be divided in two parts: B.B (Before Bardot) and A.B (After Bardot).
The Buffalo Brigade: A Visit to Ilha do Marajó
When the first thing I saw upon arrival was a young girl bathing her dog in the river, I knew things were different on Ilha do Marajó, a river island nearly the size of Switzerland at the mouth of the Amazonas, Tocantins and Xingú rivers on the northern tip of Pará state. Outside of urban areas, most Brazilians wouldn't think twice about a dirty dog, but the Marajoara do things their own way. So much so that ironically enough, dogs aren't even the usual pet of choice.

Kate of Minieco made this cute key holder from Legos that she raided from her son's Lego box. It would be fun to make a set for the entire family.
DIY Lego Key Holder (Via Nerdstink)
Clearly, some will not be happy until humanity is ruled, or even replaced, by minifigures.
I'm playing safe with an early "I, for one, welcome …"
"Made" is sort of a strong word here, isn't it? It's just sticking three lego pieces together.
Yeah, you can pretty much imagine that a whirlwind passing through a lego junkyard might accidentally put one of these together.
Personally I would have had a dreadful tantrum if my parents had stolen one of my good 6 by 8 grey pieces and a lego man for such a trivial purpose.
"Personally I would have had a dreadful tantrum if my parents had stolen one of my good 6 by 8 grey pieces and a lego man for such a trivial purpose."
This! Get your own Lego and keep your hot glue gunning hands away from my Storm Troopers!!!! (I hope she bought a new set for her son.)
It's Stormtrooper™.
I never thought of using Lego as a quick and easy velcro solution. Simplicity at it's best.
My version has a letter holder: https://twitter.com/nnodstrum/status/273820153286889473
Nice. From which set is the lattice/letter holder?
Not sure as it is all second hand Lego but I think it is from the Pirate theme.
I know that I'm fighting against a rising tide here… but the plural of Lego is Lego! The Lego company used to have a page clarifying this on their site but it got lost in a redesign and now I'm just a ranting denizen of the Internet trying to convince others from anecdote.
Something similar made the rounds on Pinterest/Facebook a few days ago. Neat idea no matter what.
Sadly, Slayer's holiday jumper has sold out. This is the perfect evolution of the black heavy-metal t-shirt, something for an aging headbanger cohort.

Are televised singing competitions on the way out?
Fox announced it was canceling Simon Cowell's The X-Factor after three disappointing seasons. Head honcho Simon Cowell will go back to the U.K., where he will return to his original X-Factor show and roll his eyes at somebody else for a change.
The X-Factor faced an uphill battle from the start. It had the icy appeal of Cowell, but it also didn't have the novelty factor like American Idol when it premiered stateside in 2002. It was too familiar to a format that we were already used to, with Idol still on the air along with NBC's version The Voice.
It was like Greed compared to Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
But we even got tired of Millionaire.
In fact, you can probably count the number of game shows that have stood the test of time on one hand (Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, The Price is Right, maybe Family Feud, and ... ?).
Idol is nowhere near the ratings powerhouse or buzz-worthy spectacle it once was, and though The Voice has remained relatively consistent, interest will wane. NBC can't expect Cee-Lo Greene to sit there in his red pajamas forever (all right, maybe it can), and as we've learned with Idol's revolving door of hosts, replacing them isn't as easy as you might think.
Viewer fatigue is a real phenomenon. When we see too much of something, we get sick of it, especially if the knock-offs are of lesser quality than the original. In 2009, Avatar made $2.8 kajillion, because an immersive 3D experience was fresh at the time. But 3D movie sales plummeted in 2013, now that we're all over being forced to see (and pay $16 for) every sub-standard action flick that comes out (I exclude Gravity, which aimed to take that next step and succeeded).
The Sopranos was a massive commercial hit, so we got Ray Donovan and we all couldn't care less. Comic book adaptations have been huge these days, so let's make sure we get every established superhero a feature film: Green Hornet, Green Lantern and (gulp) Ant-Man? Everyone who's anyone loves The Lego Movie, so surely the K'Nex epic film can't be far behind.
Every great idea in entertainment gets re-purposed into 50 mediocre-to-good ideas that render that original great one almost obsolete. You can't recreate magic in a bottle -- you need to get a different bottle and try to create a new potion from scratch.
Whether the talent pool has been diluted, or the judges are mailing it in, or we're realizing the people who win these competitions don't actually become successful (have you ever heard of any of the five winners of The Voice?), televised singing competitions have lost their luster.
But they shouldn't feel bad. It happens to everybody.
Except Alex Trebek and Pat Sajak.

Hi all!
I'm having trouble getting Theme Studio 2.2 to run properly. When I start the program the window doesn't refresh and only certain parts of the window are shown. As soon as I move the window some bits open up and can be used but others stay covered in a gray background. Tried reinstalling etc but nothing seems to work. Could this be a java runtime issue or is my laptop not fast enough to emulate the java (1.6Ghz Celeron M)? The minimum spec is a 667Mhz CPU so I don't see why that should be a problem. I have seen a few threads stating the same problem but no one has an answer. Maybe the developers could help us here as I would really like to get this program to work!
Thank you!

There is certainly a lot to find out about this subject.
I love all the points you made.
Today, I went to the beachfront with my children.
I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
Hi, I check your blogs regularly. Your writing style is witty, keep doing what you're doing!
Excellent way of explaining, and good post to take facts concerning my presentation topic, which i am going to deliver in academy.

Walk for Peace
21 September : The Ethelburga Walk
The Ethelburga Walk is a great day out for a good cause.It's a ten mile walk linking two historic sites associated with St Ethelburga of Barking - Barking Abbey and St Ethelburga's Centre. It runs through an intriguing part of East London, mostly through green spaces and along canal towpaths, avoiding roads.
What's new
It is somewhat surreal sitting in a café in North London writing this last journal letter about an incredible year. It seems about five years ago we were sitting in Woodbrooke during our induction last August, and yet it could also be five minutes. This letter contains reflections on my experiences, emerging thoughts about the nature of peace and my next steps over the coming year!

Celebrate, not compare, UConn & UCLA
How UConn got here and the high standard Huskies and Bruins set should be the focus
NEW YORK -- The sizable lighted tree at Rockefeller Center, a mile or so from Madison Square Garden in Manhattan, is a reminder that this is a season for celebration. For Connecticut, it need not be a season of comparison.
One more win and the University of Connecticut women's basketball program will stand alone atop the mountain. At least, that's the conventional wisdom after the nation's top-ranked team defeated No. 10 Ohio State 81-50 on Sunday. With victory No. 88 in a row, and the 86th win by double digits during that same stretch, the Huskies matched the streak authored by John Wooden's UCLA men's teams nearly four decades ago as the longest in NCAA Division I basketball.
From a crowd of 15,232 -- more than double the attendance of last season's Maggie Dixon Classic featuring Baylor, Boston College, Rutgers and Tennessee, and a few hundred shy of the record for a women's college basketball game at Madison Square Garden -- to a media throng that might rival in size that which gathers in Indianapolis in April for the Final Four, it was evident there was a fifth team involved in Sunday's doubleheader. In this case, a fifth team whose presence greatly overshadowed what Texas A&M and Rutgers offered in the opening act.
Connecticut handled Ohio State with ease on the court. How it handled UCLA off the court was out of its hands.
"I just know that there wouldn't be this many people in the room if we were chasing a women's record," Geno Auriemma told a packed news conference in trademark sardonic fashion. "The reason there's everybody in this room, the reason everybody's having a heart attack the last four or five days is a bunch of women are threatening to break a men's record. And everybody is all up in arms about it. All the women are happy as hell and they can't wait to come in here and ask questions. All the guys that love women's basketball are all excited. And all the miserable bastards that follow men's basketball and don't want us to break the record are all here because they're pissed.
"That's just the way it is."
But it doesn't need to be. And anyone who came Sunday in search of a referendum on Connecticut's worthiness to share a record with a UCLA team transitioning from contemporary icon to historical legend as the years pass might as well have fought the hordes at FAO Schwarz.
The thing about mountaintops is they generally require a bit of work to reach, a reality that tends to cut down on the crowds. At this particular elevation, at the peak of college athletics, there is room for Auriemma's team to stretch out alongside Wooden's -- just as there is room for the Huskies to stand alongside Anson Dorrance's North Carolina women's soccer program and the 92 consecutive games the Tar Heels won between 1990 and 1999. And just as there is space alongside the Penn State women's volleyball program the day after the Lady Lions captured their fourth consecutive national championship under coach Russ Rose.
The one thing we have in common is that we settle for nothing less than the absolute best we can give you every single night, every single day. There's very few people that do that. [UCLA] did it, and we're doing it. Everything else, to me, is meaningless." -- Connecticut coach Geno Auriemma, on the only way to compare the Huskies' and Bruins' streaks
Connecticut's place in such company wasn't going to change no matter what happened Sunday. It's not going to change based on what happens Tuesday against No. 14 Florida State (ESPN2, 7 p.m. ET) or at whatever point the streak inevitably comes to an end. And instead of worrying about whether Connecticut measures up to UCLA, the question of more significance is what separates those teams and North Carolina and Penn State and a small handful of other programs in other sports from the thousands upon thousands of competitors who had their chance and fell short on the field.
"Both teams, I think, share just level of competitiveness, that expectation level that is above everyone else's," Maya Moore said of the Huskies and Bruins. "And the way they showed that was by going out and competing and winning every night. This program is just full of a lot of special people who are invested, put so much time and effort and passion into the game. We would just like people to remember how much we respect and love the game, and hopefully they can see that when we play."
That is what was on display Sunday. At its best, Connecticut can take apart an opponent with the precision of a scalpel-wielding surgeon. It also proved handy with the proverbial sledgehammer. There were parts of the performance against Ohio State that weren't perfect -- the Huskies missed more layups than they might in a normal two-week stretch, finished with more turnovers than assists for just the second time this season and occasionally looked like a team counting on three freshmen in its core, seven-player rotation.
But from the moment the ball went up, even after two early 3-pointers from Ohio State's Brittany Johnson raised eyebrows and hopes for a thriller on par with the battle between Baylor and Connecticut earlier this season, the Huskies played the game at a different speed.
The Huskies are tanks going up against a basketball world still counting on cavalry charges on horseback.
They frustrated Ohio State All-American center Jantel Lavender, using Stefanie Dolson's size and Samarie Walker's quickness to change up the looks Lavender saw. They perplexed Samantha Prahalis, Ohio State's other All-American, by throwing defensive stopper Kelly Faris at her, to the tune of 2-of-17 shooting and six turnovers from the Buckeyes point guard. And above all else, they pushed the ball down Ohio State's throats at each and every opportunity -- often right into the hands of Tiffany Hayes, who topped even Moore's 22 points with 26 of her own.
"That's the best way to play, when you have everybody on the team contribute what they're really good at," Moore said. "What's the point of playing a team sport if everybody's not going to be able to get involved and contribute and enjoy in it together?"
And as such, it's not Connecticut getting to win No. 88 or 89 that marks this team's greatness, certainly no more than getting to win No. 70 last spring and breaking its own record for the longest winning streak in Division I women's basketball. In the end, even 88 is just a number. What the Huskies did to get there is what matters, just as it mattered when the number was 57, 64 or 79.
What are the statistics and numbers behind the UConn women's 90 consecutive victories? For a look at the facts and figures, click here.
"I've said that whether you agree or disagree with the time, the era, the competitive balance -- whatever your take on it is, you can put any spin you want on it and make it better, the same or less," Auriemma said. "It's just a matter of how you choose to look at it. One thing that's non-negotiable, and that is the one thing we have in common is that we settle for nothing less than the absolute best we can give you every single night, every single day. There's very few people that do that.
"[UCLA] did it, and we're doing it. Everything else, to me, is meaningless."
We can argue the merits of two teams and two sports, or we can celebrate both of them and those like them. At this time of year, in particular, it really ought to be an easy choice.

- Central Coast NSW
A Full Time (possibly initially Part Time if preferred) opportunity has become available for a professional, friendly dentist, who possesses high clinical standards and is an excellent communicator, to join our modern, well equipped practice on the beautiful NSW Central Coast. The practice is currently worked 4.5 days per week and offers potential to increase hours and patient base for an incoming dentist willing to work evenings and Saturdays, for which there is increasing demand. Suitable candidates will have at least 5 years of experience in all aspects of general dentistry and be looking to settle into this practice long term. The practice emphasis is on preventive and restorative treatment. The practice is very much routine family dentistry, not high end cosmetic. There is a demand for orthodontic treatment and oral surgery which currently is being referred out. This long established practice was relocated about 12 months ago to a new shopping village and is located next to a busy medical centre and pharmacy. Opposite is a Coles supermarket, the local primary school, high school and day care centre, so plenty of exposure for ongoing practice growth.

It may be just a footnote to the current violence in Gaza and Israel, but it's important for Americans to see what is being said in our names. The AIPAC-crafted bills in Congress reflect the very ugly sense of valuing Israeli lives and not Palestinian ones at all. I can only wonder how that feels to Arab-Americans, especially Palestinians. I explore at LobeLog.

The Israel-Palestine usually takes up a disproportionate amount of attention in two of the three branches of the US government. Now, the third is getting into the mix. The radical irresponsibility of the Roberts Court, which has already gone a long way to robbing Americans of the principle of "one person, one vote" is now quite inappropriately sticking its nose into a dispute between Congress and the State Department over identifying Jerusalem as Israel for the purposes of US passports.
There are some serious implications here. I explore them at LobeLog.

My latest at LobeLog reviewing John Kerry's recent testimony before Congress and the ripples on the Israeli right in response to the collapse of the talks, at least for now.
Also, Dimi Reider has a piece up at 972 Magazine which goes well with mine.

My latest piece at LobeLog reviews the failure of virtually all of Benjamin Netanyahu's objectives during his trip to the United States last week. I strongly recommend it.
I hope to have something up on LobeLog later today about the spasm of violence in Gaza and Southern Israel. Here's a hint: I don't think it is what it seems to be.

Removing Content from Archive Pages
25 August 2011 at 4:02am
So, out of the box, if you enter a description(text) on the blog holder ...this also shows on all of the archive pages (ie, if you view all posts for a certain tag)
Is there a way to prevent this from showing on these other pages and only have it show on the blog holder/landing page? It seems like an if statement around $content in BlogHolder.ss would work but I need to know what to use in the if statement.
Any help would be great. Thanks!

Making a mark in life
To the Editor:
I was sitting here at 6 a.m. drinking my coffee and I started thinking. I do that once in a while. I had a good life, a great family and a wonderful wife. It has been a great ride.
I think I've done some good and some not-so-good, but I have my friends and a daughter who won't let me give up. I think about how I have made my mark in life, small and insignificant as it is, and we all do.
Don't think you have nothing to show for your life, you do. Just look around you. Fifty years from now, no one will probably remember us, but we left our mark with our children and grandchildren.
Be thankful for what we've got and satisfied with what we did. I know this is "a lot of to-do about nothing" but it is mine and I wanted to express it.
To my friends in the nursing homes, you did your jobs and made your marks. Don't stop.
Ralph Ziegler

Born: October 4, 1948
Organist/Pianist Gary Brunotte performs his own brand of lyrical jazz, influenced by the tradition but in his own personal voice. Born and raised in a small town in Minnesota, he remembers, "My uncle played accordion, was self-taught and performed in the Navy band. In addition, my stepfather played guitar and my other uncles all played instruments. I started taking accordion lessons when I was nine." He debuted as a professional musician at a New Year's Eve job when he was 11, switched to organ and performed with r and b and rock and roll bands as a teenager. "I discovered jazz after listening to Brasil '66 and Blood, Sweat and Tears. I particularly enjoyed Howard Roberts' records of the period and Jimmy Smith." After graduating from college, Brunotte attended the Berklee College of Music in Boston, switched to piano, and taught at the prestigious school for three years. He moved to Manhattan in 1980. "I worked for a period at Rodney Dangerfield's comedy club. The jazz trio would open a set and there would be a different singer each week before the comedian came out. It was fun for a time." During this period, he won a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to write a suite for a big band and his orchestra performed once a week in a mid-town club. After living and working in the Hudson Valley area, Brunotte spent 1987-97 back in Minnesota. "I played a lot of gigs at local jazz clubs and restaurants. I also recorded my first CD, Yesterday's Dream for the Altenburgh label."...

'Mas Que Nada' Cool solo by Brunotte at the organ and the steady unruffled beat of drummer Bill Berg drives this tune like a Rolls Royce. I'm not going to get the jewelers loop out on this one, simply put It grooves
To listen to a no frills recording with solid musicians, you can't go wrong with this album. 4 Stars
JAZZTIMES Magazine (1993) Brunotte is a crisp, indeed, intelligent player whose charts sizzle and yet leave plenty of space for inspired soloing . . . tres musical.
JAZZTIMES Magazine (2006) Any jazz person will appreciate Brunotte's crisp, tasteful, witty, lyrical elaborations upon his original themes . . .
ALL ABOUT JAZZ (November 2007) ... Manic Moments succeeds at being original through Brunotte's imaginative composing and arranging. Most notably the title track, an original up-tempo blues with a Blood, Sweat and Tears-type horn intro, and 'Mas Que Nada,' the Jorge Ben Brazilian classic, featuring the Durham Children's Choir.
While the primary focus of the disc is Brunotte's organ playing, he also displays his prowess as a pianist ('You and the Night and the Music'), accordionist ('Sometime') and vocalist ('Agua de Beber'). Regardless of instrument, his approach is aggressive and commanding, yet sensitive to the spontaneity of the other musicians. His organ solos move from ultra-greasy ('Thats All') to Larry Young-inspired intricacy ('Slightly Blue')...
NEWS & OBSERVER (2007) Gary Brunotte's 'Manic Moments' (Sincopato Records) is a rather pleasant affair with Latin grooves, swing and jazz-rock dominating the rhythms... The group eschews the classic, funky, Jimmy Smith organ trio approach in favor of more subtle grooves and a more romantic mood.
JazzReview.com - by Bill Falconer (2008) - Guitarist Gian Wiegner and organist Gary Brunotte met at Berklee, played gigs in Boston, and then went their own ways, still friends, but separated by geography. Recently, they recorded together in a home-and-away reunion... When you meet up with an old friend for the first time in years you pick up right where you left off and the conversation flows easily. That's true of musical conversations as well. The resulting CD, About Time, combines fine musicianship with an upbeat attitude.
Wiegner and Brunotte have written accessible and interesting compositions which make up most of the tracks. Their solos are creative, their comping sensitive, and you can feel the quartet's rapport... I really like About Time.

text: Manhattan D.A. Won't Prosecute Clergy for Gay Marriages By Nina Pineda (New York-WABC, March 18, 2004) — Another battle front in the fight for gay marriage -- two members of the clergy performed same-sex ceremonies on the steps of City Hall. The minister and the rabbi performed ceremonies for three gay couples outside city hall this afternoon. Dozens of other clergy members showed up to support the move. Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau says he will not prosecute couples or those who perform marriage ceremonies for same sex couples. Nina Pineda reports from City Hall with more. The D.A.'s office has been bombarded with inquiries from people who were involved in same-sex marriages on the steps of New York's City Hall, wondering what's going to happen. The answer is going to relieve some and anger others. The answer from Morgenthau, at least for now, is nothing. His hands-off stance surprised many. He issued a statement Thursday afternoon, saying: "The criminal courts are not the appropriate forum for the resolution of these issues; ultimately they will be resolved in civil lawsuits ... this office will take no action with respect to the participants in these ceremonies." Robert Morgenthau, Manhattan District Att'y Kevin Cathcart, LAMBDA Legal: "He's an important player in the world of district attorneys, and what happens in New York City, vis a vis any kind of gay rights issue, is very important for the rest of the state." Lawyers for gay rights groups cheered Morgenthau's decision. Because of the respect the D.A. commands beyond and throughout New York state, they feel there's hope for those facing criminal charges -- possibly even jail time -- for performing same sex marriages without a marriage license. New Paltz Mayor Jason West has vowed to continue, with another two dozen marriages this upcoming weekend, despite 19 criminal counts against him. Three same-sex couples were married on the steps of City Hall on Thursday. Members of Clergy, Speaking as a Group: "We agreed to marry couples based on the laws of the state, in which we live." Ministers, rabbis, and dozens of other clergy showed their solidarity for same-sex marriages, the legality of which the Manhattan D.A. will not fight criminally now. Though the mayor's interpretation is that the "I dos" are "Don'ts" under state law. Mayor Michael Bloomberg: "The current law does not provide for same-sex marriage, period. And I think this is more theater than anything else." Both the mayor and the D.A. agree that this is an issue for the courts to decide, legally and constitutionally. But it was certainly unsettling for many that religious leaders were beginning to be prosecuted elsewhere in the state for performing same-sex marriages

First of all, this product looks revolting. It's the color of mud, which is fine, but it has these weird leaf like pieces in it and does not apply evenly. I literally gagged while putting it on my face. Beyond that, I didn't think this was any different than any Freeman clay mask I have used. I would never recommend this to anyone.
Bought this product in duty free whilst flying home from holiday. The product does work and does what it claims to do. You can feel it working whilst on your face and can feel it tightening your face too - which I love! I also love how it is also an exfoliator when you wash it off. HOWEVER, the pot is so small, and I am one of those people who loves slapping on loads of product. I managed to do thin layers (which is definitely all you need) however, I still only got about 8-10 uses out of it. Would I buy it again? No. I think they're are better products out there for the price and size. But for travel purposes, it definitely works.
If I could give this mask zero lippies, I WOULD. I have acne prone skin, but it is really tough when it comes to experimenting with products. I tried this product twice! Once a year ago and once just recently when I got a sample in the GlossyBox. The first time I used it, after thorough washing and even a shower after, my pores were left BLACK from the mask. Every single pore on my face looked as if I had millions of blackheads. DISGUSTING. The second time I used it, I hoped that maybe my skin would react differently, but this time it was WORSE. My skin basically purged itself after using this mask. I used it before bed, no black pores this time, and when I woke up my cheeks were left with huge, almost cystic, pimples! UGH! After spending a full year on acne medication, my skin was pretty much acne free besides the one or two "time of the month" visits. This product made my skin look even more disgusting than it did before I went on medication. PLEASE save yourself.
I received a sample size of Youthmud and liked it enough to purchase a full size. I don't know what happened, but the very first time I used the full size, the very next morning I had about 4 new zits. A week later I still have one on my cheek that is painful. I might try it again some other time, but right now it's going to be sitting in my drawer. I have normal/dry skin and just wanted to do something different so that's why I bought this mask. I have since purchased a pumpkin mask and some retinol to help clear up the breakouts the Glamglow caused. Will not repurchase.
Amazing!!! In the winter/fall I have VERYYYY dry skin, I wish I had this product before so I could have worked on my skin during that time. This is a clay mask and I used to use a clay mask long ago, but it would majorly dry me out! This has little tiny scrubbing balls that you scrub before removing and afterwards your face is as soft as a baby's bottom! Perfect for us dry skin girls. And it does somewhat clear up my skin, but I do not have a lot of acne so I wouldn't be able to give advice in that area. But whenever I do have acne the day after using this they seem smaller! Love this stuff. I have been told by some oily skin girls that is doesn't do much for them and some love it. So I guess it just depends on your other concerns. For those with a lot of acne issues I think the one in the white packaging would be best for you! Also I believe the clumps in this are dried tea tree leaves which is VERY good for your skin. Wishing it was cheaper!
This mask works, but for the price I'd expect a lot more than just clay and tea leaves that keep falling off during application (annoying!). The tingling/burning sensation gives the impression of some kind of miracle going on, but it doesn't do any more than your regular drugstore mud mask.
The packaging is lovely and I liked the smell. I got the sample size and do not plan on repurchasing.
I have tried 3 of the 4 Glamglow masks- Youthmud, Powermud Dual Cleanse, and SuperMud. I have liked them all, but I have yet to purchase any. I just keep asking for samples at cosmetic counters because it's really pricey for a tiny amount and I'm still nervous my skin will react badly. Youthmud tingles a little, but cleans well. Supermud cleans my skin out the best. I actually said "wow!" when I rinsed it off. Powermud was the most gentle of the three I tried, it is a mask and then when you go to rinse it in turns into an oil based cleanser and it smells nice. That all said, they are a bit harsh overall except maybe for the Powermud, so I'm very nervous that my skin is going to react badly. I didn't take review lippies off for that, since I can't predict the future, but it seems a fine line between skin clearing and too harsh to make skin look better.
I have used much cheaper masks with better results. This is nothing to write home about except all the reviews were it has been irritating to the skin.
DO not believe the hype this is not a magical mask worth trying. Save your money or better yet spend it on a mask that has better ingredients and healing properties for your skin.

I tried a small size of the Youthmud product. I found it to be quite a harsh product -- the exfoliating bits are particularly big and rough, and the mud is strongly fragranced. I could not leave it on my face for too long before it started to sting. It's also a complete PITA to wash off and all the leafy pieces end up clogging up your sink. Shockingly mediocre verging on just plain bad.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I heard so much about this product on YouTube so I figured it had to be amazing, so while in sephora I bought the sample size for $19. I was so excited to get home and try this mask. After I used it I felt disappointed, I didn't notice anything spectacular- my H20+ mask works just as well and is cheaper than the sample of this mask. I don't know if I just had really high expectations of this product or if it had too much hype. But I won't be buying again any time soon. And I'm so thankful I decided to buy the sample and not the original size which is way overpriced!!

The famous and well documented Hindenburg disaster of 1937, when the hydrogen-filled airship burst into flames whilst attempting to tether to its moorings in New Jersey, killed off the 'lighter-than-air' aircraft industry, as well as 35 unfortunate souls. Since the 1970's however, a determined band of, mostly British, aviation engineers has been battling to design and build a commercially viable 'air vehicle'. Many false starts, experimental craft and research projects followed (funded mostly by the U.S. military) but viability remained elusive, until now. Read More
As a result of winning the Project Workhorse Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) competition sponsored by the U.S. Army, four Lockheed Martin Squad Mission Support System (SMSS) vehicles will be sent to Afghanistan as part of a three-month Military Utility Assessment (MUA). The 11-foot-long (3.3 m) SMSS, which can carry more than half-a-ton of a squad's equipment on rugged terrain, will be the largest autonomous ground vehicle ever to be deployed with infantry.

The U.S. military is currently able to operate unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) in far away countries from the U.S., while ground robotic systems such as the TALON can be remotely operated at distances of up to 1,000 m (3,280 ft). Now U.S. Army engineers have provided unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) with the long distance tele-operation capabilities of a UAS to allow them to be controlled from anywhere in the world and keep soldiers even further out of harm's way.

While we've covered many developments in the field of prosthetics, such high-tech advances are beyond the reach of those in the developing world where the rates of amputation due to war are highest. Now U.S. Army soldiers stationed in Afghanistan have developed a simple prototype prosthetic leg that can be constructed using local resources to allow the victims of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and land mines to get back on their feet quickly and cheaply.

Following lab evaluation tests, Lockheed Martin's ruggedized HULC (Human Universal Load Carrier) robotic exoskeleton is now undergoing biomechanical testing at the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center in Natick, Massachusetts. The biomechanical testing will assess the effectiveness of the HULC in improving the endurance and reducing the risk of injury to soldiers by comparing the performance of soldiers carrying identical loads, both with and without the device.

U.S. Army aims for more energy-efficient base camps
The U.S. Army has opened a System Integration Laboratory (SIL) at Fort Devens, Massachusetts, modeled after forward operating bases in Iraq and Afghanistan to test technologies aimed at creating more energy-efficient base camps. The various energy-efficient technologies being tested are expected to reduce base camp fuel requirements by 20 percent or more and water demand by up to 75 percent. Read More
New polymers self-heal scratches in UV light
Nobody likes scratches in their car's finish. That's part of the reason why over the years, a number of research facilities have tried to develop self-healing paint. These efforts have resulted in products containing things such as microcapsules that burst open when scratched, elastic resins, and even a chemical derived from the exoskeletons of crustaceans. Now, scientists from the U.S. and Switzerland have developed polymers – which could be used in paint – that heal their own scratches when exposed to ultraviolet light. Read More
In the heat of battle I imagine things can get pretty hectic and pinpointing just where the shooting is coming from as quickly as possible could mean the difference between life and death. To give its soldiers an edge in this regard the U.S. Army will begin providing its forces in Afghanistan with the first of 13,000 gunshot detection systems later this month. The Individual Gunshot Detector (IGD) uses the sound waves generated by enemy gunfire to instantaneously determine the location and distance toward the enemy fire. Read More
Quadruped CHEETAH robot to outrun any human
It would be scary to be chased by a military robot. It would also be scary to be chased by a cheetah. So, imagine what it would be like to have a military robotic cheetah sprinting after you. Such a scenario could one day be possible, as robotics company Boston Dynamics recently announced that America's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has awarded it a contract to design and build such a ... critter. The contract also includes the creation of an agile, bipedal humanoid robot. It's hard to say which one might ultimately be creepier. Read More
Mortars have existed for hundreds of years, proving extremely useful in World War I where the high angle of flight of the shells made them an ideal weapon for the muddy trenches of the Western Front. The weapon's simplicity coupled with the ease with which it can be transported and operated means mortars are still in common use today but, although methods of calculating azimuth and elevation angles for targeting have improved, their greatest weakness still remains their lack of accuracy. Mortars are now moving into the 21st Century with U.S. Soldiers in Afghanistan set to receive a first-of-its-kind, GPS-guided 120mm mortar munition that can pinpoint targets at ranges of up to 6,300 m (20,669 ft).

Is it normal for a statue to appear outside of your house?
I just notice a statue outside my house that wasn't there before. It seems to move when I look away or blink, but it stays still when I look at it.It's an angel covering its eyes as if it's crying. I don't know if I'm in danger or not. I mean...statues don't just appear out of nowhere right?

Not normal obviously. I had 2 stone statues outside my old house that would move (you can see the imprints on the ground where they would be moving to, plus they were too heavy for someone to pick up) when you stood in front of them they would turn their heads and look at you. Our neighbors even seen it happen to and everyone took out running.

I love the food we picked up from here for dinner. Even if you are a meat eater, you will leave this place satisfied. I don't eat the fake-meat products, so I chose the spinach salad and added avocado. It was delicious and had just the right amount of sweetness from the apples. We chose two sides: edamame (which was good, very all dente- which I like) and spring rolls (a bit greasy for my liking, but very fresh). My husband had the vege-beef dish (E3) and absolutely loved it, even if he wasn't sure what lotus root was before he bought it. I can't speak to a dining in experience, because we got it to go, but the brief service we had was very friendly. I will definitely come back here!

PENTICTON, British Columbia -- As the Young Stars Classic finished Monday, Bo Horvat couldn't help but look back on how he ended up playing here with the Vancouver Canucks.
Horvat was chosen by Vancouver with the ninth pick of the 2013 NHL Draft -- a selection that belonged to the New Jersey Devils until they sent it to the Canucks in a trade for starting goaltender Cory Schneider.
It was a moment he'll never forget.
"It was absolutely crazy," Horvat said. "I couldn't even really process what was happening. When you're sitting there hoping to hear your name called, playing the different scenarios in your mind, that's certainly one I didn't see coming. It was a huge shocker to all of us and to the hockey world.
Prepare for landingBy Ryan Dittrick - NHL.com Correspondent
Winnipeg prospects Jacob Trouba and Mark Scheifele will move from the Young Stars Classic to Jets training camp looking to secure NHL roster spots. READ MORE ›
"Looking back on it now, it's still pretty amazing how it all unfolded that day. But I couldn't be happier with how it all turned out. It's a great situation for me."
The trade put an end to a lengthy goaltending controversy in Vancouver, but also put Horvat in a potentially uncomfortable spot -- but one that he's handled with aplomb.
"Bo handles the pressure like no one else I've ever seen," fellow prospect Hunter Shinkaruk, who was chosen with the Canucks' first-round pick (No. 24) in the same draft, said. "He knows his name will forever be linked to that trade, but he doesn't worry about it. His single focus is on playing his game and improving as a hockey player. He's one of the most driven individuals I've ever met."
Horvat, a center, had 33 goals and 61 points last season with the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League. He had 16 goals and 23 points in 21 OHL playoff games and was named playoff MVP after leading the Knights to their second straight OHL title and a berth in the Memorial Cup.
Heading into the draft, he was regarded as one of the most complete players available.
"I was given an incredible opportunity to succeed in London," Horvat said. "We won the championship in back-to-back seasons, which always helps things, but it's been a great place to develop and become a professional."
Horvat and Shinkaruk signed their entry-level contracts Aug. 6. They've played on the same line in Penticton and have become inseparable off the ice as well.
"We've become great friends," Horvat said. "We went through the draft experience together and have been a part of so many different things since, so it's appropriate that we're getting the chance to skate together and develop some chemistry on the ice.
"It's a testament to what the organization is building. All 30 of us are becoming a team, on and off the ice. That's what this is all about. We're a family here."
Fellow Canucks prospect Jordan Subban, a defenseman chosen in the fourth round (No. 115) in June, understands the value of family better than most. He's the youngest of three brothers carving their own paths in pro hockey. His oldest brother, P.K., won the Norris Trophy with the Montreal Canadiens last season; Malcolm, the middle child, is a goaltending prospect with the Boston Bruins after being taken with the 24th pick in 2012.
"It was very special," Subban said when asked about being drafted. "I'd been to a couple other drafts and I think it's fair to say it was a completely different experience for me. Having my name called by Vancouver was tremendous. They're also a Canadian team, which made that much more special.
"My brothers are really supportive. I honestly believe that was the best part of the draft. When you can share the experience with those that mean the most to you and have helped you throughout your career, it's awesome. Even now, if I ever need some advice or someone to talk to, my brothers are always there for me."
Subban had 15 goals, 51 points and a plus-22 rating with the Belleville Bulls of the OHL last season. After a strong showing in Penticton, he'll be heading back for another full season in a more prominent role on the Bulls' blue line.
"It's obvious that things are happening a split-second faster [at this level]," Subban said. "Getting to experience that will be huge for me going forward into this season. My goal is to go back to Belleville and take what I've learned here so I can come back and have an even stronger tournament next year.
"[The Canucks are] a first-class organization, and ever since I've been drafted they've been great. It's been a great experience, so I'm trying to soak up as much as I can while I'm here."
Horvat couldn't agree more. The 18-year-old native of Rodney, Ontario, scored a goal (assisted by Shinkaruk) in Vancouver's first game, against the San Jose Sharks, and was looking to finish strong in Monday's finale against the Winnipeg Jets.
"Getting the chance to put on the Canucks jersey for the first time and play with all these top prospects has been incredible," he said. "We're all fighting for jobs, so it's definitely been intense, but it's been a fantastic experience and I'm really happy to have been here."

This review is from: U Catastrophe (Audio CD)
I started to explore the music of Simon Collins when he covered "Keep it Dark"... his first 2 albums were good - this one rocks especially "The Big Bang".
The only sad thing is the UK will probably not hear it or of him.

Something Veggie, somewhat spicy; little tangy yet savory is the protein rich digestive dish Rajma Salad.
Indian Tindora, Karnataka's Thondekai, US Rashmatoes, English Ivy Gourd; whatever it is called gives a delicious taste when made as sabji.
Raita is the only condiment that gives sharp taste and is a paradox in itself which sates the taste buds even after having a spicy dish. With Beejpur(Pomegranate) as the main ingredient this raita is a blend of sweet sour tingly tangy taste.
Ma{Mother} would be ideal if I call the gravy KURMA, with Potato and Paneer in the menu to relinquish ones' hunger alongside different forms of rotis.

Popular Chutney made of Coconut and Roasted Bengal Gram served with Dosa, Idly and Paniyaram or Paddu.
Cookies are the best among snacks. It can be carried anywhere and consumed anytime. These Eggless Shortbread Cookies also give you the required amount of glucose when you have to wait for lunch or dinner. That is the reason I fondly call them ATM of energy.
Masala Papad is one of the yummy side dish which is edible as it is or with meals. Colourful and nourishing, gives unique spicy taste hence aptly named Masala Papad.

Superintendent's View: Science and Partnerships to Improve Acadia
By Sheridan Steele
Spring 2014 Friends of Acadia Journal
In the mid-1990s, our park staff was surprised to discover that fish in Hodgdon and Seal Cove Ponds were contaminated with mercury. Years of research later, Acadia is now one of the best-studied locations in the world when it comes to mercury and conservation. Research in Acadia has contributed to policies to reduce mercury pollution from power plants and other major sources. While mercury emissions are now declining, mercury pollution is still a problem for much of our wildlife.
Science is critical to making Acadia the special place it is and keeping it that way for our children and grandchildren. It helps us improve all aspects of park management— from protecting wildlife to preserving our coastal historical sites to keeping visitors safe and healthy. It helps us overcome challenges that we face, improve visitors' experiences, and achieve our mission to preserve one of our country's national treasures unimpaired for future generations.
The park's need for scientific research far outstrips our ability to support it through staff or funding. That is why the park helped to create the nonprofit Schoodic Institute at Acadia National Park to develop a campus dedicated to scientific research, education, and communication—the Schoodic Education and Research Center (SERC). I am excited by how this emerging organization and facility will complement the efforts of Friends of Acadia to accomplish our shared objectives at Acadia.
SERC's campus contains classrooms, labs, meeting rooms, exhibits, and housing, all in short supply elsewhere in the park. A leader among the 20 research learning centers in national parks across the country, the SERC campus is becoming a hub of intellectual and creative activity. The programs and partnerships among the Schoodic Institute, FOA, and others are helping to attract more researchers, educators, artists, and partner organizations than the park can recruit and support on its own, and advancing science and science education throughout Acadia and well beyond the park's boundaries.
One example is helping students, volunteers, and everyday visitors get their hands dirty doing real science, so-called "citizen science." Take the mercury research I mentioned earlier—staff from the Schoodic Institute, University of Maine, and the park worked with teachers and students throughout northern New England to explore why mercury concentrations are high for wildlife in some streams, wetlands, ponds, and lakes but not others. (Here in Acadia, for example, fish in some ponds have very high concentrations of mercury but fish in other ponds seem fine.) This project has been so successful at advancing mercury research and education that it is now being replicated in 40 national parks across the country, led by UMaine and the US Geological Survey.
This year and in coming years, partners at Acadia will continue to expand our professional research and citizen science programs. We will address the challenge of how we can best protect and preserve Acadia's natural and cultural resources in a rapidly changing environment—in a time of more major storms, rising sea levels, spreading invasive species, and other challenges. These efforts are very much a part of Friends of Acadia's strategic vision for a resilient and wild Acadia, and FOA staff and volunteers will be building upon the research facilitated by the park and Schoodic Institute and applying it to on-the-ground planning and restoration projects within key park watersheds.
We are not stopping there, though. Schoodic Institute and the park are hosting and working with National Geographic, Cornell Lab of Ornithology, the Natural History Museum in London, and many other organizations to develop a new international Citizen Science Association to foster communication, collaboration, and professional development in citizen science. We want to make Acadia an international leader in this budding field—we think it has the potential to improve science, conservation, and education here and worldwide.
SERC's campus can also host residential education programs that we do not have the facilities to provide elsewhere in the park. The Schoodic Education Adventure program, funded in part with a grant from L.L.Bean through Friends of Acadia, gives middle school students from throughout the state a three-day immersion in the wonders of Acadia's coast, forests, and night sky. And last year's efforts by FOA to expand Acadia's Teacher-Ranger-Teacher program benefited from the capacity to have two of the seven TRTs based at SERC for the summer.
Achieving our ambitious goals for youth engagement and resource sustainability will require both the growing capacity for research and science education at Schoodic Institute and the established expertise at FOA for turning research into action and engaging stakeholders, volunteers, and philanthropy in "on the ground" projects in the park and communities. Acadia is fortunate indeed to have such effective partners, promising to make what is already a world-class place even more special, to make visitor experiences more inspiring, and to help us preserve this place and experience for future generations.
