Escape the heat and dust to the cool Cameron Highlands. Story and pictures by ZAHARI ZAKARIA.
PART of the joy of holidaying in Cameron Highlands is the journey itself.
There are two ways to get there by road. First is the older winding road from the Tapah toll exit of the North-South Expressway. Then, there's the newer, easier route from the Simpang Pulai toll exit.
Both routes are challenging to take, especially when it rains. You need patience and good driving skills to maneuver your car at some of the sharp corners of the winding roads and to overtake slower vehicles.
A Breathtaking View in Cameron Highlands
Driving along the Tapah road unveils the rolling mountains, deep valleys and the beautiful Lata Iskandar waterfalls. Along the roadside are simple huts where the Orang Asli (indigenous people of Malaysia) sell handicraft and jungle products. The temptation to stop at these stalls is strong, especially for those who can't resist petai (a local bean) and other jungle vegetables and flowers.
The Simpang Pulai route is less winding and the road is wider with two lanes on one side at some stretches. Vegetable farms dot the landscape, especially near Kampung Raja.
The journey on either routes takes one to two hours, depending on your driving speed and the number of stops you make. The weather in Cameron Highlands is very unpredictable, depending on the month, but the average day temperature is about 33C and at night 22C. For most people who come from other places, it's time to "show off" their sweaters and leather jackets. But, what a picture of contrast you will make when you see the locals move about in their shorts and singlets!
Kings of the Mountain
The first town that greets you in Cameron Highlands is Ringlet. It's the first settlement on the highlands and most visitors usually bypass it.
After Ringlet, you reach Tanah Rata, Camerons' biggest town with rows of shop houses along its main road. It has the feel of a resort town with many eateries and shops catering to tourists.
You've to be more alert when you drive further up the highlands. It's not because the road is more challenging but because your driving skills will be challenged by the "kings of the mountain" – those famous and notorious modified Land Rovers used by the highlanders to get in and out of their farms and other workplaces.
Often, these rugged four-wheelers are overloaded with vegetables and other farm produce. These mean machines seem to appear out of nowhere and you've to be deft at your driving so as not to collide with them.
Must Do
For many, a must-do in Camerons is sipping tea and having scones at English-styled inns or tea houses. For a breathtaking view of tea plantations while you sip the golden brew, don't miss the Bharat Teahouse located between Ringlet and Tanah Rata and the Boh Teahouse in Sungai Palas. While there, you can enter the tea plantations and even pick some tea leaves yourself.
At vegetable and fruit farms, you get to learn a thing or two about farming. At strawberry farms, you even get to pick your own strawberries. Fresh strawberry jam is an excellent buy.
Driving is fun in Cameron Highlands
For dinner, nothing beats having steamboat in the cool night. Ferns Restaurant at Hotel Rosa Passadena serves delightful steamboat at RM25 per person. You get fresh Camerons vegetables to go with pieces of chicken, fish, prawns, meatballs, crabsticks, tofu and other ingredients. Order Strawberry Delight – thick, juicy and yummy strawberry juice to go with your steamboat at Ferns.
You can't leave Camerons without going to one of its markets. Not only can you get fruits and vegetables but you'll also be spoilt for choice when it comes to flowers – both fresh and dried – and also cacti in a multitude of colours.
Look also for Camerons' homegrown apples at the wet markets. The fresh apples are sweet and juicy and the locals say they are good to cool the body.
The markets there are so enticing that you can't help but to buy and buy. But don't be surprised if some of these items are much cheaper in hypermarkets in Kuala Lumpur! But hey, what's a trip to Camerons without shopping?
Where To Stay
For accommodation, there are many choices — from five-star to budget. A local chain of hotels offers three types of lodging: Rosa Passadena (three-star); Hotel Rainbow (budget); and Casa dela Rosa (boutique). Both Rosa Passadena and Hotel Rainbow are located in Brinchang town while Casa dela Rosa is in Tanah Rata.
Named after a rose, Rosa Passadena has nicely furnished rooms and penthouse suites. Altogether, there are 120 units. The weekday rate is RM128 nett per room per night (twin sharing) with breakfast. Weekend rates are slightly higher. The hotel arranges sightseeing tours for its guests. For details, call 05-491 2288 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. The hotel is located at No. 1, Bandar Baru Brinchang, Cameron Highlands.

Scientists have uncovered a brain-stomach connection that may help explain why we crave food and keep eating even when we're full. Featured in the Journal Science, this study of hungry volunteers revealed specific brain activity linked to the anticipation that a good meal is on the way. When the stomach is full, that brain activity slows down, like a brake that helps a person avoid overeating. The study in the Journal Science says people with certain eating disorders may have a faulty brake system, and may not get the message to slow down when they are full. Researchers say the findings may help lead to a better understanding of eating disorders and could lead to behavior modification strategies to help re-train the brain's food craving center. The research was conducted at the Institute of Neurology in London and is published in the Journal Science, published by AAAS, the Science Society.
Kids are just as good as adults at least one thing, being couch potatoes. A government report released finds that kids are even less active than initially thought. That 60% of kids from ages 9 to 13 are not involved in sports outside of school. More than 20% aren't active at all during their free time. The Centers for Disease Control surveyed more than 3,500 kids to come up with these numbers and they say now parents have a big problem at home since inactivity is one of the contributing factors to the epidemic of childhood obesity, something that increases the risk of diabetes and other health troubles. Parents noted some reasons why they thought kids were not being physically active. They include: difficulties in transportation, lack of time and opportunities, expense, and concern about neighborhood safety.
If your living depends on tips from customers, you might take this tip from a study in the Netherlands. The researchers compared two groups of waitresses, one group repeated the customer's order and smiled and crouched down beside the patron. The other group was friendly too, but stood up the whole time and did not repeat the order. The crouching waitresses who repeated every order had nearly double the tips as the other group. So what does that mean? First, that tips reflect body language as well as service, and that those who appear to be good listeners, are better rewarded.

It's a worthy addition to a respectable catalogue that has seen a lot of growth since Eve debuted in this game. We're looking forward to the follow-up.
Check out Eve on Turn On the Lights (Remix). If you're down, make sure to visit Eve's profile page for the newest info, news, songs, and mixtapes.

On Feb. 5 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, longtime mixed martial arts veteran Vitor Belfort will challenge reigning Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva in the main event of the UFC 126: "Silva vs. Belfort" pay-per-view broadcast.
Yes, the same Anderson Silva whose name likely sends shivers down the collective spines of those that have made the fateful decision to climb into the Octagon to do battle against him.
His rule over the UFC's middleweight division has lasted over four years and spanned nine different opponents. And that's without including his exploits in the light heavyweight division -- a one minute destruction of James Irvin (14-4-1 career record going in, 1-3-1 since) and a near career-killing embarrassment of former 205-pound champion Forrest Griffin (untouchable tough guy reputation before, perceived quitter and whinetit after).
Silva possesses black belts in Tae Kwon Do, Judo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and just plain overall badassery. His Muay Thai arsenal is unmatched amongst his contemporaries. The very fear he instills in men that ply their trade inside a cage punching people in the face is nothing short of legendary.
Lost among all the bravado and hero worship is one very damning and yet so simple detail: he is a human being. An aging one at that. And one thing is for certain in all hominids -- perfection is unattainable.
Anderson Silva will be made painfully aware of that fact when Vitor Belfort brings an end to his run as the 185-pound kingpin.
We've seen the track record of both fighters and should be well aware of the extensive accomplishments of the middleweight champion. I watched him enter the UFC fresh on the heels of his other-worldly knockout of Tony Fryklund at Cage Rage 16 before absolutely destroying Chris Leben.
In 49 seconds Silva became the first man to knock "The Crippler" out, landing every single strike in the process. As soon as the fight was called, UFC color commentator Joe Rogan proclaimed, "This is a different kind of striker."
Talk about an understatement.
Fight fans stared in astonishment as Silva staked his claim as the top middleweight in the world by rearranging Rich Franklin's face in just his second bout with the world's largest fight promotion.
Then came the submission of Travis Lutter, followed quickly by a first round technical knockout of Nate Marquardt before another dominant stoppage of Franklin.
Dan Henderson (submission), Patrick Cote (technical knockout), Thales Leites (decision), Demian Maia (decision) and Chael Sonnen (submission) round out the list of 185-pound victims.
By my count, that's one brawler (Leben), three strikers (Franklin, Marquardt, Cote) three jiu-jitsu players (Lutter, Leites, Maia) and two wrestlers (Henderson, Sonnen). Again, that's not including the two light heavyweights crossed off the hit list, who both fall in the category of striker (Irvin, Griffin).
The fighter to have the most success against the champion was unquestionably Chael Sonnen. For four and a half rounds, the Team Quest product didn't just get the better of the previously invincible Silva; he completely neutralized and controlled him. The formula was simple -- takedown, ground-n-pound, top control, rinse and repeat.
But, like everyone before him, Sonnen came up short, submitted with just minutes remaining. Not only that, it's possible Silva was willingly giving up takedowns so as to put himself into position to submit his opponent, who, prior to the fight, had verbally trashed his mentor and the man who awarded him his jiu-jitsu black belt, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira.
Through this brief history lesson what have we learned?
We've learned the only real flaw it would appear Silva has is his wrestling. However, in both instances his flaw was exposed, he persevered and claimed victory just like he always has.
At this point, surely you're saying -- "Well, Geno, with all that in his favor, how the hell is it Vitor Belfort is going to be the one to dethrone him?" And my reply shall be short and sweet. In fact, one word says it all.
Yes, the common denominator in all 11 previous threats to his crown is the total and utter lack of ability to match the champion's speed.
Silva's pinpoint accuracy is accentuated by how fast he fires off his strikes. His victims have no idea what they're in for until it's too late. It's as if in each fight, they realize how hopeless their cause actually is and the end comes shortly thereafter.
Belfort himself has the reputation of a mentally weak fighter; one who breaks when the going gets tough. It's often said of Vitor, if he doesn't win a fight within the first few minutes, he doesn't stand much of a chance, no matter who his opponent happens to be.
Obviously this is amplified if his adversary is one of, if not the best in the world.
Fortunately, it will never get to a point where we'll have to find out if it's actually true. Because for the first time in his storied career, Anderson Silva will face a man who will stand up against him and actually match his speed.
And maybe even surpass it.
How much of an advantage this will be for "The Phenom" cannot be stressed enough. Familiarity breeds complacency and that's a dangerous thing. Silva is so used to his superiority standing, so used to being quicker to the punch, what will happen when Vitor's hands get there first?
And not only does Belfort have the speed to surprise the champion, he also has the power to finish the job.
Ask Matt Lindland, whose soul is lying on a mat in Anaheim, California, leg still involuntarily twitching after Vitor exploded a couple of his trademark bombs on "The Law's" face. Or how about Wanderlei Silva, the unwilling participant in the redefinition of the word "blitzkrieg."
While Silva has exhibited an iron chin throughout his career, it doesn't mean he's exempt from a trip down Queer Street. He need only watch a tape of his beloved mentor "Minotauro" Nogueira, who made his home there when he met the mighty right hand of eventual Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez at UFC 110.
"The Spider" has spent years weaving his web, ensnaring his prey before rendering them useless and feasting upon the helpless remains. But for every spider, there is a praying mantis waiting to seize him first and bring an end to the reign of terror. That praying mantis has a name.
His name is Vitor Belfort.

Son spurs on Rogiet super slimmer
5:20pm Thursday 15th November 2012 in News
A MONMOUTHSHIRE woman shed six stones after her son told her she was a fat mum.
Jo-Anne Holod, 32, from Rogiet, joined a diet club after her seven-year-old son Jaden said to her, "You might be a fat mum, but you're our fat mum."
Mrs Holod, who used to weigh 15st 13lb and wear a dress size 20, knew then it was time to take action about the weight that had crept on after having her first son, Liam, ten years ago.
Three days after her wedding, Jo-Anne's army husband Shane left home for rehabilitation due to leg injuries followed by six weeks' service in Northern Ireland.
To cope, Mrs Holod turned to food.
"Shane was away a lot and I was pretty much on my own for the first year of our marriage," explained Mrs Holod, a midday supervisor at Rogiet Primary School.
"I would curl up and easily polish off a family size bar of Cadbury's Whole Nut most nights and I turned to crisps and chocolate whenever I felt down or lonely."
Mrs Holod gave up smoking and returned to snacking when pregnant with Jaden and thought there was no way she could focus on changing her ways.
"I hated shopping with a passion and I made every excuse possible to avoid going out," she said.
In January last year, she bit the bullet and signed up for the Rosemary Conley diet which she had tried successfully before.
Despite finding the exercise hard at first, she soon found she loved it, and also took up running.
By ditching snacks and taking up exercise, Mrs Holod went from15st 13lb, to 9st 13lb in a year and a half, and had to have her photograph redone in the foyer of Rogiet Primary School because no one recognised her. She said: "I'm proud I'm showing my children a better example."
Nowa size 10, Mrs Holod is features in the December/January issue of Rosemary Conley's Diet and Fitness magazine. Visit www.rosemaryconley.tv for information about the diet.

Finding the proper wheel loader attachments for a recycling or scrap handling operation can lead to increased efficiency and profitability.
Efficiently running a recycling/scrap handling operation often requires wheel loaders to switch between attachments several times each day. Choosing the right attachments for your application needs and knowing how to properly maintain them can help recyclers and contractors spend less time making these adjustments and increase their overall return on investment (ROI).
Couplers can dramatically improve the efficiency of a wheel loader. Providing increased attachment flexibility, couplers allow operators to safely switch between two completely different attachments in a matter of seconds without leaving the cab or requiring the assistance of another person. This means more productivity, less downtime and greater job efficiency, which translates into improved profitability.
When buying a wheel loader with a coupler, make sure the coupler has the proper interchange to work with your existing attachments. Most companies offer couplers with one of the many common industry interchanges as well as couplers with an interchange unique to a specific brand.
Other companies sell couplers that can work with more than one interchange. For example, the JRB Multi-Pick-Up Coupler, manufactured by Paladin Construction Group in Akron, Ohio, can pick up JRB 416 Series attachments as well as ISO attachments, designed to make it even easier for operators to switch between attachments.
The fit between the coupler and attachment is very important and should be checked regularly. With the coupler locked to the attachment, check the fit by rolling the attachment forward and measuring the gap between the stop block and the rib stop surface. In general, the maximum allowable gap is 0.080 inches (2.032 millimeter). Check your operator's manual for exact measurements. A very tight fit may not allow free movement of the plungers.
It may seem like a simple attachment, but choosing the right bucket can help you perform specific jobs more efficiently—saving you time and money. Before you buy a bucket for your wheel loader, think about how you will be using it most often and what type of material you will be moving to choose the best fit for your application.
Added Protection
Recycling/scrap handling applications can wreak havoc on a machine. To protect it, you can add cab, machine and key component guarding and other equipment enhancements, such as fire suppression systems, cab risers, custom paint and theft-recovery systems.
One company that specializes in enhancing machines for extreme conditions is CustomWorks, a brand company of Paladin Construction Group, Akron, Ohio. It offers a range of engineering, manufacturing and installation products and services designed to help ensure a machine meets performance standards.
CustomWorks modifies newly purchased or current pieces of equipment at its custom facility or ships the necessary parts and kits directly to a nearby dealership.
Buckets to be considered include:
It is important to know the size and hydraulic capabilities of your wheel loader as well as the weight and abrasiveness of the material you will be hauling before purchasing a bucket attachment. Depending on its size, a wheel loader can only handle a certain capacity. If you aren't sure what bucket attachment is best for your machine and application, ask your local dealer.
"Our dealers are trained to ask specific questions when customers come in to buy a bucket attachment," comments Jamie Adams, JRB sales and product manager for Paladin Construction Group. "If they can tell their dealer the size of their machine and what kind of conditions they're up against, he can recommend the right bucket for them."
Designed to help you pick up bulky, unusually shaped or long materials, grapple attachments contain material that would not stay in an ordinary bucket. Grapples will help hold oddly shaped materials tightly in place since their bulky shape and size may prevent them from staying in the bucket.
Depending on the requirements of your job, you can minimize time spent switching between attachments by purchasing a grapple/bucket combination attachment.
Available in a wide variety of carriage and tine lengths, fork attachments help extend your wheel loader's versatility when transporting pallets and items such as pipes and logs.
It is important to always space your fork attachment tines correctly for the load you will be handling. Also, make sure forks are completely under a load before lifting it. Loads can fall off of incorrectly spaced forks.
Buyers can choose from the following fork attachments for a recycling/scrap handling operation:
Increase Attachment Lifespan
Attachments may need to be stored for an extended time. Storing them properly can help to keep these attachments in top condition. This can be a big asset in increasing ROI. Following these steps can help keep attachments running smoother and longer:
Take time upfront to choose the best attachments fitting an application. This, along with proper storage, can increase the life span of a wheel loader and attachments, providing greater ROI.
The author is vice president of marketing and business development for Paladin Construction Group, which includes JRB Attachments and CustomWorks, based in Akron, Ohio.

A Passion to Compete
As a barrel racer and roper for the better part of two decades, I am intimately familiar with the ups and downs of the rodeo circuit. The ultimate goal of most rodeo enthusiasts is to become a professional and run with the best in the business, but that's a long, hard battle. Some competitors don't have professional aspirations and are content competing in smaller, local rodeos. Each potential contestant must assess his or her skills and pick the event they are best at. Timed events take skill, finesse and strength, while rough stock riders must be powerful, well-balanced and coordinated to stay aboard for a full 8 seconds. Most competitors simply pick the sport they enjoy the most and participate in that, even if they don't excel at it. Contestants practice each and every day to hone their skills and train their bodies to react and adapt in the event of a mistake, a necessary part of bringing home the big money. Rodeo can be a tough sport, and, for many competitors, even a bad day in the arena beats a great day anywhere else.
Life on the Circuit
Living on the road is the most difficult part of competing. Instead of sleeping in your own bed at the end of a long day, you crawl into a sleeping bag on an air mattress, or, if you're really lucky, a strange bed in an unfamiliar hotel room. Waking up at the crack of dawn to drive down a lonely stretch of highway to another rodeo hundreds of miles away leaves plenty of time to think about the comforts left far behind at home. Too much gas station coffee and fast food meals leave the belly longing for a home-cooked meal. Too little sleep leaves the body aching for rest, a luxury that is reserved for lazy days at home. Timed event competitors have their horses to care for, sacrificing their own comfort to keep their equine partners comfortable on the road. The rising sun, gently washing the surrounding landscape in pale fire, is one of the few comforts found on the road; a promise of a new start at the end of each dark, lonely night.
Go Time
As dismal as life on the circuit often seems, the highs of a good run are worth every lonely minute. The gritty smell of dirt rising from the arena, the sweet light scent of hay from the feed bag, and the oily tang of concession stand combine in an unforgettable medley. The booming voice of the announcer calling each contestant into the arena and the ensuing cheers from the crowd leaves a lasting impression engrained in the memory. Saddling up a sleek, >muscular horse and walking into the warm-up arena is like calming therapy in a sea of commotion. The fluid movement of a well-trained horse is good for both body and soul, washing away worries and helping a competitor to focus on making a winning run. Stepping into the arena can be a little nerve wracking, but executing a perfect run or staying on for 8 seconds is an undisputed adrenaline rush. The crowning glory comes at the end of an event, when the winners are announced. The satisfaction of pocketing a big paycheck at the end of the day makes the loneliness a little easier to bear, and makes all the hours on the road well worth the sacrifice.

Here are some candidates and their profiles:
I didn't include guys I think will not be there (Babbitt, Bradley, George, James). I'm not even sure some of the kids I mentioned will be available.
Personally, Ebanks is a guy I'd take. He's a long combo forward who has the potential to become an extremley versatile defender, similar to a Jared Jeffries. I'm not his biggest fan, but I don't think you can do much better with the 27th pick, he has some potential and would fill our needs. And he's a very good passer.
There may not be much better prospects than Warren at #27 (if he falls there), but we have enough guards (esp if we land Wall or Turner), and like NI pointed out:
Warren had a weird year. He decided against leaving OU a year ago, when he would have been a top 10 pick. Instead of earning $2 million in the NBA, he spent 2009-10 battling with his coach in Norman, getting a reputation as a selfish player and to make it all so much worse, having a disappointing year on the court. As Jonathan Givony of Draft Express writes, "His 2-point percentage is down 5%, his 3-point percentage is down 6%, his turnover rate has nearly doubled and his assists and scoring are only up slightly in turn."
Some of the other guys could be available at #31. I wouldn't take Lawal even with our 2nd rounder. I don't think he will be better than Boone. Yeah, he is a good rebounder, but is very limited, is a poor free throw shooter and a bad passer.

We came to Chicago from Bologna, Italy a decade ago with the dream of importing the authentic Italian dining experience. What is authentic Italian food? It's fresh ingredients and great tastes, but it's also the sound of laughter and the feel of home. And of course, it's all paired with a balanced bottle of wine.
When you think of Italy, you may have images of Rome or Venice in your head. But make no mistake–no city is more important to Italian food than Bologna. And as Larry Potash of WGN News found, we bring Bologna's flavor and authenticity to the streets of Chicago. Click on the image to watch the WGN News video.
Zagat rated. Loved on Yelp, OpenTable, TripAdvisor, and UrbanSpoon. We welcome your kind words, but reviews are not why we got into this business. We strive to give you a memorable and delectable dining experience each time you walk in the door.

….or, for that matter, is there a Huffington Post without Arianna Huffington or a GigaOm with Om Malik?
After reading a Fortune story yesterday about how Michael Arrington is the "wizard of Web 2.0″, one thing that struck me is how synonymous Arrington is with TechCrunch. He is TechCrunch. He's the owner, the main writer, the PR machine and the brand. If Arrington, for whatever reason left TechCrunch, is TechCrunch still TechCrunch?
Frankly, I think the answer is "no". This isn't a slight against TechCrunch's other writers such as Erick Schonfeld but the reality is TechCrunch is so closely aligned with Arrington that it would be impossible to envision TechCrunch being TechCrunch without Arrington actively involved.
I would argue the same goes for the Huffington Post and GigaOm because the founders behind them are the brand's living, breathing persona. You take them out of the equation, and it's just not the same.
It means that Arrington, Huffington and Malik are married to their online babies for a long time. While Arrington talks about the idea of perhaps selling the business at some point, how much is TechCrunch really worth is Arrington walks away to start something else? The easy answer is far less than it's worth with him involved.
It's not that I expect Arrington to sell TechCrunch any time soon but it does illustrate the advantages and disadvantages of having such a large and strong personality at the helm of a company where the entrepreneur and the entity as so closely intertwined.
Update: 24/7, which put together a list of the 25 most valuable blogs, suggests TechCrunch is worth $36-million based on traffic (uniques and pageviews), demographics, monetization and risks (including the dependence on star founders).

World-renowned archaeologist and author, John Schofield, recently gave a lecture at Roanoke College about the restoration of medieval churches.
Students, faculty and staff attended his Oct. 29 presentation, held in Roanoke's Pickle Lounge.
Schofield of London spoke of past and present efforts to restore London cathedrals and parishes destroyed in the 17th century Great Fire of London. The fire destroyed nearly 400 acres of land, including St. Paul's Cathedral and 80 other churches.
After the fire, Sir Christopher Wren, who was the surveyor general to the king, was given the task of rebuilding London and St. Paul's in 1666 to its original glory.
During World War II, St. Paul's and surrounding parishes were once again damaged. In 1940 German armed forces bombed the city of London damaging much architecture. St. Paul's however, suffered minor damage.
After a second restoration, St. Paul's became an inspiration to the people of Britain.
For more than 40 years, Schofield, formerly a long-time archaeologist at the Museum of London, has used his archeological passion to restore, study, and excavate houses, cathedrals and churches in London.
In the 1990′s, two Roanoke College students interned with Schofield to learn general archaeology.
Schofield has discovered priceless artifacts while reassembling deteriorating churches, including a 17th century tobacco pipe and alabaster stones from early parish churches in the drain pipes of London.
Schofield, with contribution from Dr. Gary Gibbs, a Roanoke College history professor, wrote the "Proposal for St. Margaret Pattens, City of London: an archaeological assessment." St. Margaret Pattens, a church in London, wishes to place a door in the second floor of its 17th century tower, but Schofield is faced with the obstacle of changing the architecture and possibly destroying artifacts in the tower.
Schofield's notable books include "St. Paul's Cathedral Before Wren†and "London, 1100-1600: The Archaeology of a Capital City.â€

JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - Right here in Mississippi, the temporary injunction halting Arizona's immigration law is being praised Thursday by immigration advocates.
Although parts of Arizona's law were eliminated just hours before it went into effect, some residents of the Magnolia State are saying it still allows for discrimination. Their fear is that a similar bill could be passed in the state.
Members of the Mississippi Immigrants Rights Alliance (MIRA) said the Arizona law still targets people of color, allowing for racial discrimination.
Rallying at the capitol, their single hope is to stop a similar bill from being passed there.
"They're targeting immigrants. Immigration was the center of everybody's problems. The economy's so bad right now, everybody wants to blame somebody. Everybody is pointing at the easy target, immigrants," said Ulises Hernandez, organizer for MIRA.
MIRA Director Bill Chandler who led the rally said, "What it represents in terms of other states in particular Mississippi, passing similar legislation that touts racial profiling and victimizes particularly Latinos, but all immigrants."
MIRA representatives said Arizona's law still has provisions making employers responsible for any possible illegal immigrants they may hire, and anyone who gives a ride to an illegal immigrant could be charged with human trafficking.
Mississippi Lieutenant Governor Phil Bryant disagreed. He drew loud cheers in his support for the legislation as he shared his tough stance on immigration at the Neshoba County Fair, promising to pass a bill like Arizona's in the coming year.
Before a cheering crowd Bryant said, "If the Obama administration wants to file another lawsuit, let it be here in Mississippi. What they're saying ladies and gentlemen is we're not going to do our job securing our borders, and we're not going to let you try it."
Bryant said he plans to discuss immigration law Monday at 6:30 p.m. during a meeting in Madison.

The Royal Sportsman was awarded 2 AA Rosettes for its food in January 2011 and is still only one of five restaurants in Gwynedd to have achieved such status; it now ranks with the very best in Snowdonia.
"Food is clearly a highlight of any stay and quality and imagination is evident in the dishes sampled. Modern interpretations of classical combinations are to be commended. The quality of ingredients is superb…"
AA Senior Hotel & Restaurant Inspector
Our food is included in The Good Food Guide 2012, based on inspection reports and customer recommendations, with TripAdvisor awarding a four-star Certificate of Excellence for the restaurant in 2013 and again in 2014!
Just before Christmas 2013, Russell Croston (pictured) took over from Paul Riley as head chef, joining sous chef Martin Harrington - all from Manchester. They replaced Ian Owen and John Reed, who returned to London after gaining two AA Rosettes for us in 2011.
Most recently, Russell has worked in Edinburgh and Liverpool, and before that around Manchester - including the 2 AA Rosette Copthorne Hotel on Salford Quays. Martin has worked in fine dining establishments in Manchester including the National Football Museum, and other UK city hotels such as the Grand Hotel in Newcastle and the Marriott in London.
Both say they have been chefs "forever", starting catering college from school, and really enjoy working with us. They are ably supported by two local lads, sous Llion Williams and chef de partie Chris Williams. They will hope to win awards like a previous chef who won a gold medal in the Welsh International Culinary Championships in March 2014.
Our style of cooking is seasonal Modern British with a contemporary European twist for the more adventurous. The style of cooking is one which brings out the best in local meats, game, seasonal fish and seafood, focusing on releasing the true flavours of these simple fresh ingredients. Our food is neither fussy nor complicated.
There is also a separate Traditional Classics British fayre menu, for those who enjoy more homely meals at lunch or in the evening, served in the restaurant, bar, lounge or garden. For children, the hotel has a 'healthy options' menu, cooked to order and only using fresh ingredients.

Actor Jeff Daniels: Sorkin's Anti-America Speech 'Resonated with Me,' 'It's Gold'
Appearing as a guest on Friday's Piers Morgan Tonight on CNN, actor Jeff Daniels - who stars as Will McAvoy in HBO's The Newsroom - admitted that he agrees with a now infamous speech delivered by his character - and written by liberal producer Aaron Sorkin - in which McAvoy rants that "America is not the greatest country in the world anymore."
After running a partial clip of the speech, host Piers Morgan praised the writing as a "great speech," and posed the question: "When you said it, did you believe it yourself?"
Sitting alongside Sorkin who was also a guest, Daniels recalled the first time he saw the line after the liberal producer wrote it:
And I remember reading it, going, "You may not like it, you may disagree with it, you know, for those who are patriotic and wave the flag and don't want to hear it, but there's nothing in it that's not true."
And that, and all of it, each phrase, each thing that Aaron has Will say, it's all true. I'm sorry to tell you, but it's true. So that really resonated with me, and, to be able to say that, to be able to take words like the way this guy can put them together and throw it at the lens, throw it at an audience, it's, for an actor, it's gold.

If Obama was riding a wave and looked like he could be re-elected, this stuff would be praised.
Everything I've seen so far is that this series is so far to the radical left that even the MSM is panning the show and saying it's the biggest bomb of the season. I think they're worried, finally, about how United States bashing plays with the public.
With the election looming, could the media actually try to get this show off the air faster than Keith Olbermann?

Daniels can pound sand
Submitted by NotFondOfLibs on Mon, 06/25/2012 - 8:12am.
It is appropriate that Jeff Daniels was in the movie "Dumb and Dumber". It is his signature character. I'm so glad people like Daniels, Hanks, Freeman, etc reveal themselves to us so we can decide whether to boycott their next movie. In Daniels' case, except for Gettysburg, he hasn't done one movie that I have any respect for. Thanks for the heads up Jeff. Now we know where you stand.

Hollywood's Reality?
Submitted by Rovin on Mon, 06/25/2012 - 8:22am.
Mr. Daniels suffers from what most liberal Hollywood "artist" fail to grasp---the difference between reality and make-believe/fiction. In the world of Hollywood, most actors believe what is said is reality. If they do their job well, they have convinced the movie-going public that what they are seeing and hearing is a real life situation. Nothing could be further from the truth. Imagination is a beautiful thing.
Mr. Sorkin and Mr. Daniels would like you to believe/imagine this nation is no longer the greatest in the world. Without viewing the movie or the script, the question must be asked: "What Nation is now "the greatest", if not America"?

America is just as dysfunctional as any other country. The rich run it, the rich ruin it, the rich own it. The vast majority of people in the US don't make enough money to vote and know it and don't care. Other nations have better health care, better schools, better societies, better transportation systems. America has greed, weapons and a bought and paid for political system.

As an arch-conservative, pro-life, pro-gun, pro-God, pro family values, pro-non-government run businesses, who has watched the nation's deterioration over seven decades now, I have to admit, America is no longer the great country it once was.
But, it is these very liberals (and their agenda) that so hate what it was formed to be that have brought it down.
It is beautiful, but broken, and it truthfully can't be fixed by dumping Obama and hiring a conservative, any conservative on a white horse. The path back requires that we all return to the moral sensibilities and behavior that made this nation great.

Morgan and Company don't seem
Submitted by cristo on Mon, 06/25/2012 - 11:10am.
Morgan and Company don't seem to realize this is not real, it's fiction. These people are very troubled. It's like the Obama "story." Fiction, lies,composites,so long as it sounds good to them, it is good. I suspect they are not really very intelligent. They are obviously easily manipulated. If they were on a wagon train heading west during the 1800s, they would have gotten off in western Pennsylvania, or Ohio. The ones with true grit at least made it past the Mississippi. And these types aren't very high in the gene pool, Daniels, Clooney, Pitt, DeNiro, they have been selected for that very reason. They can read lines, that's it. (ever hear DeNiro interviewed, he's a hatbox) Actor Daniels reads this line: America is not the greatest country in the world anymore. Peers Morgan cuts back to the interview and says, "It was fascinating watching the room reaction, all these hard-edged newsmen, I saw a lot of them sort of nodding along with that, because it was a great speech . . ." Absolutely delusional. So here's the question to them all, If America is no longer the greatest country in the world, which country is? And when these simpletons perform, do they get paid in American dollars or some other currency?

Why can't they just keep their mouths shut and act...well, at least TRY to act, in most cases.
I wonder if Jeffy realizes that the infant mortality rate that he quoted is backwards...that statistic is compiled as the worst offender (Afghanistan, with 121 deaths per 1,000 live births) being number 1 on the list, so the farther down the list you are, the better your survival rate as an infant. Look here:
And if you take out the tiny countries, such as Monaco, Lichtenstein, Wallis and Futuna (yes, that's a single country) etc that are so tiny that any patient can get to a hospital in ten minutes, we're damn near the top. And of course, it's obvious that some countries make up a statistic, or leave out the hinterlands, such as Cuba, Slovenia, etc.

A FORMER Newport mayor thanked those who helped to raise more than £21,000 in cash for her charity appeal.
Councillor Magaret Cornelious told a meeting of Newport council she was "absolutely thrilled" with the £21,207 raised by the 2011/12 Mayor's appeal. "Thanks to everyone," she said The cash will go to Newport mental health charity Growing Space and Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research.
Growing Space provides training in skills such as horticulture and woodwork to people with mental health issues.
Events to raise cash included a concert with Only Boys Aloud at the Christchurch Centre a few weeks ago.
Ms Cornelious said: "It's been a difficult year for fundraising for anybody. We've been very lucky."

Exclusive: Jim Jones Wants To Go Ballin' W/Mase, "I Ain't Seen Betha In A Minute"
Monday, Apr 18, 2011 1:00PM
With Mase's rap comeback appearing to be highly unlikely, Dipset's Jim Jones recently spoke to SOHH about the possibility of reuniting with his former rap rival for a game of basketball.
Admitting that he hasn't seen Mase in some time, Jones said there is no bad blood between them.
"I haven't seen Betha or any sh*t like that," Jones told SOHH referring to Mason "Mase" Betha. "But you know, it would be good to see Betha. Maybe we could go and play basketball with him or something because I ain't seen Betha in a minute. We all came from the same hood, above all. Money sometimes separates the closest of friends but we grown at this point. I ain't got nothing against Betha." (SOHH)
In 2004, Dipset released the anti-Mase record, "Take Em To Church".
"Yo, you try to handle us," Cam'ron raps. "Get on the air and damage us/Screaming out Harlem (huh) like you ain't just a fan to us (Where you been at?)/Well let me fill you in, now it's a whole clan of us/Blink so mad, he went and beat up Canibus/Zeke got shot then Zeke locked up (then)/E got killed (what else?)/B popped up/But B hopped up and still broke out his chest/On probation, Doe on house arrest (what up Doe)" ("Take Em To Church")
In summer 2009, Mase and Cam'ron made a truce and dropped their "Get It" collaboration.
"@djself AY SELF PLAY THAT JOINT ONCE MORE THEY'RE BLOWING UP MY PHONE RIGHT NOW LOL! CAM' MAN WHAT DID I TELL YOU. NYC WE BACK ONCE MORE! MAN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE BACK. I APPRECIATE THE LOVE AND SUPPORT! CAM' LET'S "GET IT" ! PEOPLE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT ME AND CAM'S NEW JOINT "GET IT"! HOLLA AT ME EVERYONE! @djself MAN I APPRECIATE THE SPINS SELF! KEEP THEM COMING! HARLEM LET'S GET IT! NYC LET'S GO!! BIT SHOUT OUTS TO @djself ! HE JUST BROKE THE NEW CAM'RON & MASE RECORD "GET IT"! POWER 105.1/HOT 97 COME OOOOON!" (Mase's Twitter)
In 2009, Jim Jones and Mase officially settled their past issues during a live radio interview.
"What's good Beth, what's poppin'," Jones asked in a phone interview towards Mase. "How you feeling? Hey man, that's what's up, I just wanted to tell you I tip my hat to you. I apologize for everything I did when I was younger. You can get my number from Self and sh*t like that. Pardon my French. Pardon, pardon me it's monumental that's why I'ma get off it. You already know Betha, it's nothing but love. Self's got my number, I'm jumping off the line. I'll holla, Jones." (Power 105.1)

Experts say Nebraskans should expect and prepare for another dry summer.
State Climatologist Al Dutcher estimates Nebraska has a 70% chance of having another year of drought.
Dutcher says it would take more than 8-10 inches of precipitation to pull the state out of a drought.
Jim Schild, an Extension Educator for the University of Nebraska Lincoln, says farmers are doing all they can.
"So, they're taking the steps it's just it'd be nice if mother nature helps out here a little bit and you know, we get more of a normal year."
The Drought Mitigation Center at the University of Nebraska Lincoln says Nebraska remains in extreme or exceptional drought.

I like most of Dwyer's blog posts. His attitude/tone is a bit off putting sometimes, but overall I like him. And he posts for a large sports website (yahoo) so his opinion... matters.
Tuesday was bash the Pacers day! At least you think he could wait until after a horrible loss not a win. But none the less, after the jump, notable quotes from Mr. Dwyer.
Kevin Love is averaging 15.6 points and 12.5 rebounds in just under 32 minutes. And 2.7 assists (or 1.3 assists fewer, per game, than your starting point guard). Those are ridiculous numbers, for a man in his prime. Much less a guy who turned 21 four months ago and is playing with a Power Glove on his strong hand.
Cackle all you want about PER, but he's 12th in the league. His rebounding, per the amount of rebounds available with him on the court, is virtually identical to Dwight Howard. He's not only a franchise player, but he's a top-notch franchise player.
(That is to say, "not Danny Granger.")
Ouch... don't understand the Danny Granger dig here. The trade offered was never Granger for Kevin Love. I don't see the point of bringing up Granger when talking about Love.
This is a team that won 36 games last year with a few players having career years and Danny Granger scoring 26 a game over 67 contests. That's just about the peak, and yet, Bird thinks he can crack .500. Won't trade Granger (again, leading a team to 36 wins while dropping 26 a game over 67 contests) for Al
HarringtonJefferson at his absolute cheapest (a year removed from managing 23 and 11, at his lowest trade value coming off an ACL tear).
So wait... Danny Granger's 26ppgs for a 36 win team in 67 games isn't good. But Jeffereson averaging 23-11 for a 24 win team in only 50 games is a ton better?
Is this what you want, Indiana? Are you satisfied with a comeback win over the mercurial Toronto Raptors, one that saw your Pacers give up 51 points in the game's opening 16 minutes?
Two things here.
1. No one is satified with anything. Look at the attendence. Look at the comments on this site. No one is happy with this team and the direction the team is heading.
2. Why focus on the negatives for the Pacers for THIS game. yes... we sucked the first 16 minutes. But where is the dig at Toronto for letting a team bad enough to give up 51 points in 16 minutes come back and beat you? Oh and why not focus on the Good in the game? Granger owning Bosh at the defensive end in the 4th quarter? Second round pick AJ Price coming in and producing... SECOND ROUND POINT GUARD!
Because Bird thinks you are. Bird thinks you're just a step away. How else do you explain these win-now moves? Dahntay Jones. No big trades. Not trading Troy Murphy(notes) at his peak, the ultimate sell-high moment. Drafting a 24-year old.
1. No big trades... who the hell would want anything on our roster to facilitate a big trade?
2. Not trading Murphy... at least wait until after the trade deadline to bash Bird. If he doesn't trade Murphy when their seems to be interest I will gladly lead the charge. Until then... I will sit back and pray like the rest of th Pacer fan base.
3. drafing a 24 year old... he just needed to add "that isn't any goodand with better players on the board" for it to be a perfect statement. Thats just my opinion though :)
4. Bird thinks your a step away... sadly it was true. This off season he did for whatever reason. Hopeful... HOPEFULLY he sees the error in his ways now and unloads some of these guys.
It's ridiculous. And Dahntay Jones finally reveals himself as exactly who we thought he was. Nothing against Dahntay, because he works his tail off, but he's Dahntay Jones. For some reason, Larry Bird thought Dahntay Jones could become Dahntay Jones!
I don't think anyone expected anything out of D. Jones but some defense and some toughness. Any scoring was to be seen as a bonus. I think people got spoiled, including JOB, by his hot offensive start. I still believe he should be starting for Head (Head is not any good...) or backing up Rush at the 2... if for anything to get some trade value out of him if it comes down to it. I never thought there would be a completely article on a player that makes less money per year then Mark freaking Madson.
for the full articles go here
agree, disagree with either of us below. At least the Pacers are getting some attention!

Awards joy for Newport ballet company
Updated 3:05pm Wednesday 29th January 2014 in News By Laura Lea, South Wales Argus reporter
NEWPORT-BASED ballet company Ballet Cymru has won best large-scale dance production at the second Theatre Critics of Wales Awards.
The company, which is based in the Riverfront Theatre, collected the award on Sunday evening for its production of Romeo a Juliet.
Artistic director Darius James, who founded the company in 1986, said: "It's fantastic – it's a huge achievement for us.
"We've always flown the flag for Newport in the arts and this is just a major thumbs up from the arts community in Wales."
The awards were born out of the Young Critics Scheme.
Professional Welsh theatre critics sat on the panel with young critics to devise a shortlist from the productions they saw by Welsh companies in Wales during 2013.
The panel's members then voted for their winners, which were announced at the ceremony at the Sherman Theatre, Cardiff on Sunday evening.
Ballet Cymru received four nominations in total.
"All our productions from last year were nominated for awards so we must be doing something right," said Mr James.
Each year the company tours around 50 venues throughout the UK, with ten dancers and two technicians.
Its award-winning interpretation of Shakespeare's classic was produced with support of Coreo Cymru.
Mr James who is from Newpor, said: "It was a really good production.
"Not one we can do every year, but it shows the potential of what we are achieving in Newport and I was so proud to stand on the stage in the Sherman and say this is for Newport."
The company has recently acquired new premises in Rogerstone giving it its own studio for the first time. This will be used for education outreach work as well as their training.
Productions last year included A Midsummer Night's Dream and Stuck in the Mud.
Over the next year, Ballet Cymru is looking to work with musician Cerys Matthews again and in 2015 it aims to collaborate with Welsh harpist Catrin Finch.

Wednesday night, Casey Coleman started for the Cubs. He entered the game with a 6.03 ERA. When the final accounting on his evening was complete, roughly 37 minutes later, Coleman had a 7.32 ERA. With Carlos Zambrano complaining of a stiff neck Thursday, Andrew Cashner coming off the DL who knows when, and no reason to expect help from the minors, the Cubs have made a move. Paul Sullivan:
Cubs acquire Triple-A RH Rodrigo Lopez from Braves, will join bullpen.
Wait, what? Bullpen.
I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that Lopez gets Coleman's rotation slot. Though he's now 35 and does own a career 4.85 ERA in the majors, a) 4.85 is a lot better than 7.32, and b) Lopez has pitched quite well, almost brilliantly, with triple-A Gwinnett this spring.
To get Lopez, the Cubs are sending lefty Ryan Buchter to the Braves. Buchter's apparently got a big arm and has almost no idea where the ball's going after he lets it fly. Maybe the Braves can spin him into gold, but this winter he wasn't on any of the prospect lists.

A one of kind photography exhibit is now open in the northern valley.
It's called, "Homeless is my address, not my name".
It's free and open to the public on the corner of Broadway in downtown
Crookston. The photography exhibit brings to life the problem of homeless
people all around us.
It's sponsored by the Care and Share Center in Crookston. That Center
alone serves 40 homeless people every night, including families.

Center: "And I think that's what this exhibit shows so amazingly well is that,

What makes this exhibit so unique is that many of these photos of
homeless folks from Minnesota, include a phone number. You can call it and hear
their stories, in their own words.

owned my own construction company, until my mental illness started kicking in.
That's when I started bouncing around."

I am so disappointed that the city would vote to increase the speed limit just so it could collect revenue from speeding tickets.
On the south side of Stoneridge drive going east right over the bridge, near the new senior community, the sidewalk suddenly DISAPPEARS! There is no sidewalk.
People cross the street with no stop sign or stop light where the sidewalk ends. And worst yet, where the sidewalk ends on the south side of Stoneridge, some people walk on the street. And they want to have it 40 mph with people walking on the street?
Why didn't the city finish the sidewalk? It looks like they just decided one day to just walk of the job (union workers?).
Is Karla Brown the only person with any common sense?

Cluelessness....really? please research how much revenue a city receives from a ticket before you spew forth your opinion...you may also want to research how a speed limit is established.

Since they increased the speed limit because a study showed that people were driving 43 mph, does that mean if we all drive 60 mph they will increase the speed limit to 60?
