Chakras are energy centers in the human body that affect people's spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical health. Archangel Zadkiel, the angel of mercy, is one of several angels who direct the healing work that people do within specific chakras.
Archangel Zadkiel oversees the heart chakra, which helps people learn how to love more deeply. The heart chakra energy center is located on the center of the chest.
Another angel -- Archangel Chamuel -- partners with Zadkiel to oversee this chakra.

The staff is extremely dedicated, caring and devoted to the children's education. My child comes home having learned something new every day! Can't say enough good things about the education they provide and the extra activities (for extra cost) that they provide swimming, dance, music...I recommend it without reservations.
Amazing Curriculum Instruction especially strong in the areas of reading instruction and mathematical concepts. Strong, yet supportive discipline procedures. Fostering of different creative outlets such as art, dance, and language. Students are also exposed to different types of extracurricular activities such as swimming, computers. They are taught problem solving skills, cultural awareness, and are strongly encouraged to be self motivated. There is also a lot of assessment of the children, a lot of small group and one on one instruction. I went there myself and loved it. My daughter now attends...I am extremely happy with her progress.

As you would expect, this is a light, straw-colored beer with a white head.
Smells good, peppery hops are at the forefront, with subtle notes of citrus in the background.
A little more bitter than I expected. Again, the peppery hops dominate.
There is some complexity in the mouth. Initially, the bitterness is mild, but it gains strength in the finish.
This was a reasonably drinkable, refreshing beer.

A: a very dull yellow hue. very cloudy, as they do. billowy bright white head sits on top.
S: lemon, clove. there is a definite acidic smell here. maybe a little barny. there is an earthy and chalkyness from the yeast.
T: similar to the nose, the acidity comes across the palate in the form of limes and lemons. there is a minor bready, malty backbone, but oh so light. a little bit of ginger.
M: moderate amount of carbonation on one of the lightest bodies ive come across.
D: super light body with a decent amount of flavor certainly makes this drinkable. the tart acidity is a nice touch. from what i understand, one of the classics in witbiers. glad a friend made me pick one up.

Poured from a 12oz bottle (no dating info) into a hefe glass. It was a hazy pale straw color with good carbonation and lacing. It had a thick white head that settled into a collar with some certain foam from the carb.
The aroma was heavy on the coriander and clove with orange peel in the back. Could smell the dryness as well. The taste really followed the aroma. Heavy on the spices. It had a very dry finish that for me was a little too dry which hurt the mouthfeel.
They just re-introduced this to Texas - about damn time. I've gotten used to the less dry/sweeter wits since it left here so not in my upper tier but still a damn fine beer. Highly recommend. I see this in the regular rotation.

Pours cloudy, but very bright yellow. Head dissipates quickly to a thin ring.
Smell is quite lemony, with mild citrus aroma of orange and apricot. Underlying spices, including corriander, nutmeg, and cinnimon.
Taste is similiar to the nose. Spices present a stronger bite than the nose led me to expect. Finish is sour, with surprising bitterness.
Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied. Slightly watery.
Overall a drinkable brew, but nothing to get too excited about. Worth a try.

Appearance: cloudy, decent head about half an inch thing. Sub par retention
Smell: Spices come out on the nose.
Taste: Nice, spices come through. A lot of whites are too watered down and flavorless. This is a nice easy going taste, but not too watered down.
Mouthfee: Smooth, crisp, refreshing.
Drinkability: A nice sessionable beer.

As expected, this poured to a hazy cloudy golden color with thin white head, that dissipated quickly and left little or no lacing. Aroma was a veryu pleasant mix of oranges, cookie dough and and a hint of clove spice. Flavor followed true to form with more of the clove-orange mix. At 4.25%, the alcohol never made itself known. To me, the mouthfeel was somewhat chewy, due to the dough taste, and the finish was somewhat stale.
This beer, while pleasant, did not finish nearly as well as it started.

This is really the essence of what a good Witbier should be.
Cloudy and pale...but still inviting. Probably a little to dark for the style, but still fine.
Yeasty without being overkill. Lots of tropical fruits and dessert spices without being too sweet.
Dense without being too thick and drinkable without being too weak.
Balance. This beer has it.

Pastel manilla-folder yellow with a lively white head that resolves into a loose splatter of islands.
The aroma is mostly of bitter orange peel. Not orange liqueur. Not oranges. Not orange juice. Orange peel. Breathy clear coriander lifts the edges up nicely, emphasizing clean images of linen, branches and cut grass.
Broad-textured, it rains tart orange, bitter seed and sugar flavors onto my palate. Slightly briny too. Pretty aggressive, hungry yeast here. I say that because of the vigorous gas and the very dry, carbohydrate-poor texture. And yet, there is an impression of residual sugar. I'm afraid of what might have hapened to this beer since it left the brewery.
Still, nice wit fix.

Reviewed 11/7/2005 (bottle):
Pours a slight white head, that is quickly diminishing. Body is cloudy pale yellow in color. Has an aroma of floral and lemon scents. Mouthfeel is strong carbonation. Taste of floral and spice flavors, with a smooth finish.

i've heard the legends so i jumped at the cahnce when i saw a sixer of this. i guess it's not what it once was, but i can only comment on how it is
looks as i would expect a wit to, except the head is kinda lame (maybe they usually are): filmy with a couple of skylights and some ringy patches. upon further investigation it's a bit too sweet for my liking. the nose doesn't convey this as much, but it's very sweet with a not unpleasant but too magnificent apricot and pear thing. fairly spicy too. clove, appropriately enough, in the nose, though it's not isolated: maybe some cinnamon? no...allspice
well, the flavor is definitely full of pear, slightly prickly despite its lack of dryness, and fairly spiced. with a touch of bitterness. by no means great but bad would be unfair. i will enjoy drinking the other 5

Nice, unspectacular offering from Celis, the White remains true to Celis form--thin head, nice color, pretty good taste. There's not enough smell for me--some mild fruit such as bananas, maybe a hint of orange; certainly lots of malt, whiffs of spices such as pepper that emerge in the aftertaste. These carry forth in the taste well, particularly the malt. This improves as it warms to room temp. Rather good, and easy to knock back a few of these.
Right in line with my Celis experiences--nice beers, nothing that knocks off the socks, but steady and tasty. Give it a go.

Poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a pilsener glass.
Appears a somewhat hazy pale straw color with a big white three finger head that continues to rise. The bubbles swirling up from the bottom make it quite a beautiful sight. A decent amount of lacing.
Aroma is similar to most other Witbiers. Tangy wheat malt, coriander, and a hint of orange and lemon.
The flavor here really puts this one up a notch from many other Wits. First there is a honey like sweetness that quickly mingles with the spiciness of the wheat and coriander. It finishes with a soft lemony touch.
Mouthfeel is medium-light and so smooth. Insanely soft on the palate.
This is easily the best Witbier that I have ever had. The carbonation level is fairly high but where others would be very crisp and verging on harsh, this manages to stay so smooth. At such low alcohol content, it's highly sessionable.

Enjoyed in a tumbler. Trying it for only the second time after my first one 5 years ago at the Dog and Duck in Austin, TX.
A: 3/4 finger pure white head. Cloudy bright yellow with gold core! This is definitely a Belgian white from the master!
S: Coriander and limey-citrus and maybe I smell a tad of orange. Some great malt.
T: Delicate and complex. Wheat malt with coriander and citrus brightness holding it in check. Lots of checks and balances in this beer. Maybe just a little too much coriander.
M: Good carbonation, but slightly prickly and a little over bitter from the spices.
D: Very good, but not great. A little deterrent from over spicing.

A special thanks to HardTarget for this great suggestion and lovely brew.
Appearance: pours a hazy straw yellow with a beautiful amber glow. The carbonation is champagne-like as it cascades up the glass.
Smell: A very refreshing, spring-like blend of spice and citrus beckon me to quaff this yummy looking brew.
Taste: A refreshing wheat bread-like taste with a citrus after taste. I'm guessing the one taste that I can't identify is coriander but I'll have to rob a spice rack before I know what it's supposed to taste like.
Mouthfeel: Effervescent, light and very refreshing!
Drinkability: An elegant and complex ale that witbier that went down very quickly and made my grilling so much more enjoyable.
Thanks again to HardTarget for that one!

Let the flaming begin? I can't be the only who feels this way...
Appearance: light straw color, lustrous snow-white resilient head, bubbly, tasteful amount of haze (after swirling the last bit of beer and dumping it in)
Aroma: very subtle aroma of honey, coriander, wheat, some appley fruitiness, wet cardboard (oxidized), musty
Flavor: tastes sweetened, some orange coriander and a whole lot of orange-peel, a strange sourness followed by an even stranger bitter aftertaste (like a bar of soap) that hits in the back corners of my tongue, little to no hop flavor (but that's expected in this style)
Mouthfeel: light body, zesty carbonation
Overall Impression: Man, was I disappointed in this beer! While I never tried the original Celis, I can't say whether or not the new owners botched it up, but I do like Hoegaarden Wit. The aftertaste is very off-putting, somewhere between chewing on orange peels and sucking on a bar of lye soap -- seems to me like this would stem from using way too much bitter orange peel. Also, it seems llike it's been sweetened slightly with artificial sweetener. I actually had to dump it! I wonder of Pierre has tasted this version...
Perhaps it was a bad bottle?

Pours out a cloudy peach/nectarine with a good deal of carbonation. Appearance is really hurt by the total lack of head soon after the pour. Aroma is candy sweet with a big presence of coriander that stands above all else. Yeast spiciness mingles well with it and there is a sharp wheat twang as well. Tastes like highly sweetened lemonade with some coriander dumped in. I also taste some mango and pineapple. I'm surprised the coriander didn't stand out as much as it did in the aroma, but I'm pleased with this, nonetheless. Very bright and tart in the finish. Refreshing. Mouthfeel is soft yet tingly with carbonation. A very good balance. I wish I'd bought more than a single of this.

Pours a nice clear gold, with a super-thin head and no lacing.
Smell is a little light Belgian, with an easy amount of spice and a hint of lemon peel.
Taste is alot like the smell, spices and citrus, with a well-balanced sweetness. Nothing overpowers, all the flavors add up nicely.
Mouthfeel is perfect, the carbonation is light, but leaves just the right amount of thickness.
Drinkability is also very good, the flavors meld well and the lightness makes it easy to drink. This, and the low abv make this a great session beer.

Appearance is pale straw with a touch of white head on top. Nose is lots of wheat, light salt, a nice hit of citrus. There's a hop bite to the taste, which balances well with the plentiful wheat and lemon kick. Feel is creamy with solid carbonation. This one's a pretty solid beer. I had preferred this to the Wittekerke we had in the same session.

Served in the 12 oz. bottle into a goblet. The color is a hazy golden, with a wispy white head. The smell is a heavily spiced wheat. The taste is very heavily spiced wheat..a lot of corriander with a good bit of citrusy tartness as well. Mouthfeel is well-carbed. As for drinkability, could have a few.
Thanks to trbeer for the bottle. A solid wit, especially for those who like the heavily spiced wits, and a nice tribute to a true beer innovator. Quite good, and certainly one I hope to get again!

This used to be my favorite bottled beer brewed in Texas until Miller bought them and closed them down (bastards!). In fact, I remember after my last final of the semester during grad school going to one of the local bars and drinking 9 half-yards of the stuff. I would have gone for 10, but they ran out! The bartender actually came over to shake my hand and to tell me how impressed he was. Anyway, Ive been waiting for a somewhat happy occasion to review it, and low and behold, I finally finished up my taxes today and for the first time in many a year, Im actually getting a refund rather than having to pay! So, enter Celis White. Pours a beautiful light golden color with a creamy white head. Nose is spicy with some strong lemony aromas. Taste also has lots of spiceclove, nutmeg, allspice, and corianderfollowed by some nutty yeast flavors and lots of lemony citrus. Finish is very crisp and refreshing. A marvelous beer and every bit as good as I remember it being when it was brewed here in Texas. Thank God its finally back!

After a couple months of not seeing this around Detroit stores, I picked this up sometime in June and just had it the other day. I must say, this one's so much better on tap, I think. It still has that kick ass citrus flavor that's present in the draught version. But it -- or at least my bottle -- was just a little bit of a lesser version of itself. Carbonation seemed a tiny bit weak, and this seemed just a little thinner. Wits are by nature thin, so it's hardly a significant knock against this beer. But nonetheless, I think if you spot this in a bar, it's a sure fire winner. The bottles are great too, but it's not quite the same beergasm.

Grabbed a 6 pack of this at One for the Road in Wexford, PA, a few weeks back...
This didn't last long, but I managed to save the final bottle for review. This 12 ounce bottle has no freshness date, alas. Nevertheless, into my lovely Tripel Karmeliet glass it goes!
A. Purty! Huge, 3 inch white head is quite foamy and dies quick, leaving tons of succulent looking white lace... could hardly ask for better. The beer itself is a mildly unfiltered dull, bubbly yellow.
S. Bold. Really reminds me of La Fin Du Monde, minus that Unibroue yeast... loads of wheat, lemon, coriander, crisp honey-apple sweetness and just a hint of pepper. Classic and tight, nothing wrong here at all. Maybe a touch too sharp? But that's quibbling.
F. Classic Witbier here - honestly one of the best I've had from any country. Starts off thin (refreshing) and crisp, but not too sharp - the wheat softens it I think. Then a rush of gentle, yet insistent sweetness, tempered by a good dose of lemon-orange spritz. It is important to note that this is not really sour per se, nor acidic, but it does have that citrus and lingering sour finish. Otherwise, a good amount of coriander is present here, and a green apple ester (no apple sweetness) along with just a smudge of sulfur. The whole experience is drastically refreshing.
M / O. The finish on Celis White is soft, with an extremely long, lingering lemon-esque note and some white bread dough. The carbonation is equally soft / light, I personally would prefer a bit more... but that said, one could hardly ask for a better Belgian-style summer beer. This is both to style and excellent, and right up there with Allagash White for contention as the best Belgian Wit I've had out of my home country. In fact I feel like I prefer this to Allagash... guess I'd better acquire some more and find out, huh?

Pours very cloudy, but with some transparency around the edges. Deep gold color with bone white head that fades to a collar. Quite aromatic, with plenty of malts amidst the spices -- orange peel, coriander, white pepper -- that lend a hugely refreshing feel to the nose. On the palate, excellently balanced between sweetness and acidity, with each one seesawing for influence in turn. Mouthfeel takes over at first -- it's thick for a witbier, and quite carbonated. At the finish and in the aftertaste the real flavors of this beer come out: sharp spices, a citrusy tang, and clingy wheat malts. Overall, this is a very good witbier. It's got some spice and some maltiness, refreshing acidity and drinkability. At low alcohol, it's also great for summer consumption. I'm impressed.

Exclusive: Andre 3000 Didn't Cast Out "King" Opportunity, Says Lloyd
Wednesday, Jul 13, 2011 3:40PM
After R&B singer Lloyd caught fans by surprise with his Andre 3000-featured "Dedication To My Ex" collaboration, SOHH hit up the former Murder Inc. crooner to find out how he snagged the elusive OutKast member for a cameo.
Offering a modest response, Lloyd simply credited his humble persona enabling him to secure Dre's guest appearance.
"These are my musical peers," Lloyd told SOHH when asked how he managed to snag Andre 3000 for his King of Hearts album. "These are my inspirations. I just think that when you surround yourself with good energy, it's infectious and people want to be a part of it. When you are secure in your own skin, you don't really make people threatened to be around you who want to be around you. I'm just real comfortable with myself. I'm comfortable with who I am. I feel like I make good music and everybody is a fan of a great song." (SOHH)
Along with 3000, Lloyd's track also features Grammy-winning rapper Lil Wayne.
If Cee Lo Green can have a chart-topping song that employs the F-word right there in its retro-sounding chorus, why can't Lloyd score his own hit using a commonly used nickname for a woman's genitalia? In this similarly Mowtown-inspired Polow Da Don production, R&B singer Lloyd complains about a cheating girlfriend who took her ladybits elsewhere, while Andre 3000 throws down a verse and Lil Wayne drops in for some brief narration. (Idolator)
The singer's new King of Hearts album currently rests on the Top 10 albums chart.
R&B singer Lloyd's King of Hearts debuted on the chart this week at No. 10. After seven days on store shelves, the former Murder Inc. crooner's Interscope debut has sold 26,400 records. (SOHH Sales Wrap)
Last week, Lloyd named his top five reasons fans should support the new LP.
"I have Young Jeezy on my "Lay It Down" remix record and you'll see why he's one of the most consistent acts out in the South. Every time he's come out, he's done a million or two million and the streets love him. Regardless of what's hot. Streets love Jeezy. We were able to lock down so many different demographics on one record which is good because it allows me to influence a bigger audience and wider range of people. It allows them to be more familiar with my music." ("5 Reasons Why You Should Buy")

Your Cheat Sheet to High-Yield Savings Accounts
You work hard for the money you have, and when you're trying to set some of it aside in a savings account, you should feel good knowing that your cash is accruing interest. But it's hard to feel that great about it when your account could have an annual percent yield (APY) as low as 0.06 percent.
In fact, many of the nation's biggest banks have savings interest rates as low as 0.01 percent, CNN Money writes. There are, however, accounts out there that will pay closer to a 1 percent APY. "That might not sound like anything to get excited about, but it could make a big difference depending on what you have saved. For a savings of $10,000, for example, moving your money to an account with a 1 percent rate would bring you $100 in interest each year — versus only $1 from an account with a 0.01 percent yield," CNN Money says.
These accounts that have a higher interest rate are referred to as high-yield savings account. They offer you a higher interest rate, but typically come with a few restrictions as well.
The No. 1 benefit to high-yield saving accounts is the higher interest rates. There are also low opening balances and minimum requirements with some of them, making it easy to open a high-yield account. In fact, some banks only require $1 to open and don't have a minimum balance requirement, Brass writes.
For those of you hoping to set up an automatic savings plan, high-yield accounts offer that too. Many offer the option to set up recurring transfers so you don't even have to think about how much to set aside each month — it'll be done for you. Just because it's a different type of savings account doesn't mean that setting it up is any more complicated. Many banks even have the option to let you set up your account online.

A woman who was sentenced to 12 years in prison for selling a small amount of cannabis has been released on parole.
In 2010, Patricia Spottedcrow was sentenced to prison after selling $31 of marijuana to an undercover officer. The Oklahoma mother of four was charged with a felony and convicted. In addition to the drug charge, Spottedcrow was also hit with a charge of possession of a controlled substance in the presence of a minor because her kids were home at the time of her arrest. Although it was her first felony conviction, she was given a 12 year sentence, one that many considered too harsh. Her story attracted national attention, and after much pressure from lobby groups, a judge lowered Spottedcrow's sentence to eight years in 2011.
In April, the Pardon and Parole Board recommended that she be paroled. Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin agreed to sign off on Spottedcrow's parole under the condition that she spend 120 days in a work-release program first. Spottedcrow completed the program Thursday and was released from Hillside Correctional Center in Oklahoma City. She headed home to Kingfisher, where she reunited with her children, ages 11, 6, 5 and 3, and her mother, Delita Starr, who'd been raising the children in Spottedcrow's absence. Starr was also charged in connection with the marijuana sale and was given probation and a 30-year suspended sentence so she could take care of her grandchildren.
Oklahoma incarcerates more women per capita than any other state, Tulsa World reports. The female inmates cost taxpayers about $43 per inmate per day; Spottedcrow's two years in prison cost approximately $30,000.

Family needs to raise £65,000 to free daughter from Caribbean jail
The family of a Cardiff mother-of-two who is in jail on a Caribbean island say they need to raise £65,000 so that she can return home.
Nicole Reyes, who is originally from Rumney, has been in prison for nine months without charge following an incident in which her husband died.
Jeannette Clements has recently returned from the Dominican Republic where she saw her daughter Nicole in prison, where she says conditions were poor.
She also met the family of Nicole's husband Jorges, who died when the car she was driving home hit the motorbike he was travelling on.
Nicole Reyes is due in court on April 10th. Jeannette says that the family have now agreed to drop the charges before that hearing if they receive £65,000.

With $17 million dollars still left over in salary cap space, I wonder "Why didn't the Titans resign Finnegan before free agency?". I sort through all these mock drafts with the Titans picking Stephon Gilmore and Dre Kirkpatrick and try to think of how it came to this. The Titans could have kept one of the top ten cornerbacks in the NFL, a team leader and a model citizen but chose not to.
The first reason that comes to mind is that the Titans were going to jump in the Mario Williams sweepstakes when free agency started. However, Bud Adams had a different plan in mind. He wanted Peyton Manning, saying of the Super Bowl winning quarterback "He's our guy. I want him". Maybe the Titans were prepared to give Mario Williams a huge offer that wouldn't allow them to resign Finnegan at the same time. Initially, I the Titans seemed to be fine with Alterraun Verner and Jason McCourty leading the cornerbacks with Ryan Mouton, Tommie Campbell, and Chris Hawkins fighting for the third spot, but talk of the Titans drafting a cornerback contradicts that notion.
My take is that instead of now scrambling to pick a corner in the draft, the Titans should have just resigned Finnegan. He's a great help to the team on and off the field and resigning him would have ultimately led to the Titans adressing other needs in the draft other than cornerback.
This is my first post here. Please give me your feedback on the article in the comments as well as your thoughts on the topic.

Albany -- Phoebe Putney Health System will pay the extra 500,000 dollars needed to build the new South Albany Health Care complex.
The City of Albany has one-point-nine million dollars in federal flood money to build the health care center at the corner of Newton Road and South Madison Street. But the facility is expected to cost two-point-three million.
Phoebe Tuesday announced they will make sure the project becomes reality, because of the health care needs in South Albany. Phoebe President and C.E.O. Joel Wernick said "Ultimately resulting in a healthier community. Also will be something that allows folks to have quicker access in a town that often doesn't have as much transportational support as we all would like for it to do."
Phoebe Putney will operate the South Albany health care facility. Part of the nearly 13,000 square foot building will also be used as a community police station.

ATFC said goodbye to 2007 in style. His recent remix of Dubfire's 'Roadkill' was described as 'verging on genius' by Pete Tong. 'Ya Killin Me' was currently being sought out by all the major players in the house world, and he'd just signed exciting single and album deals with 2 of the most respected labels around. His recent dj tour of the Far East, Asia and Australia was a huge success with the highlight being the Summerdayze Festival In Perth playing to a crowd of over 20,000 strong. He welcomed 2008 in, at Cargo in Sydney and finished the tour of at the internationally acclaimed club Attica, in Singapore.
Having just mixed the 2008 Defected Miami album he'll be playing at the WMC for Defected @ Set, joining Robbie Rivera for a Juicy Music session @ Nikki Beach and spinning alongside Mr Mike and the Map Dance crew at the Astor Hotel among others.
In 2008 you'll see ATFC appearing on both Defected and Toolroom Records, proving that, if nothing else, the man's more versatile than he looks!
For his own labels, Onephatdeeva and Onephatdeepa, he'll be concentrating on releasing underground tunes from new & upcoming artists. Released as download only this will enable the label to continue to thrive and achieve what is was set up to do: release music that otherwise wouldn't be heard.
It's well known that ATFC has had three UK top forty hits, played at some of the biggest festivals and clubs around the world during his 18 years as a producer and dj and remixed some the best known music artists, like Moby, Missy Elliot, P Diddy and Fat Boy Slim. Described by DJ Magazine as "one the top producers in the world of straight down the line, mainroom house music", he is one of the industries most exciting and consistent artists.
Aydin is regularly invited by The Academy of Contemporary Music (Europe's leading school for Rock & Pop Musicians) to lead music production seminars as a guest tutor and he is also a House music reviewer for M8 magazine.

text: Flashback: 2007 preseason Fred's 2nd year in Buffalo. First year spent on Practice Squad. 4th preseason game ( I think, forget team they played, but think it was the Lions). Fred's playing during garbage time in the 4th quarter. Balls on the 5, its how ever many and goal, and Freddie gets a pitch left and he is getting to the corner with a defensive player gaining ground. Looking like a sure tackle , Fred takes his right arm and gives a huge stiff arm right in the guys grill and scampers into the Endzone!!!!TOUCHDOWN!!!! The play made it on ESPN's top ten plays for the next day. I remember watching that play and thinking there is something to this Jackson guy. I'm routing for this guy, I hope he makes the team. He did make the team, and watching him make plays in limited action those first few years, I always wished they would give him a shot and give him 25 touches a game because just felt he could be the man. It's satisfying this year watching him get that chance and finally blossoming into that player we always envisioned he would be. That play back in 2007 is when I became a Freddie Jackson fan. Do you remember it? or if you could pin point a moment when you became a fan of Fred. When was it?

Buy Quinine Without Prescription
Buy Quinine Without Prescription, I've been enjoying the textbook I'm using for World History this fall: Felipe Fernandez-Armesto's The World: A History. It covers the entire world in every chapter, Quinine interactions, Buy generic Quinine, and emphasizes ecological and cultural issues which I've been trying to slip into my World courses for ages. For the most part, Quinine without a prescription, Buy cheap Quinine, I'm finding it excellent: readable (( He even manages some humor now and then. Discussing the patriarchal social system in early modern Europe he writes, buy Quinine online cod, Cheap Quinine, "Widowhood remained the best option for women who wanted freedom and influence. The most remarkable feature of this situation, taking Quinine, Quinine photos, which might have tempted wives to murder, is that so many husbands survived it." (p, australia, uk, us, usa. 643) )) , very up-to-date, balanced, Buy Quinine Without Prescription. Quinine trusted pharmacy reviews, I'm having one conceptual problem with it: the chapters cover a relatively narrow slice of time, in world historical terms, buy Quinine no prescription, Where can i buy cheapest Quinine online, and are topical. Fine: you have to have some organization, low dose Quinine, Quinine from canada, and I'm tired of "If it's Tuesday, this must be Asia." But the divisions hew more closely to Western conceptions of "era" or "epoch" so that Asian history feels choppy, no prescription Quinine online. Quinine forum, A little more foreshadowing to indicate that individuals/topics are going to come up again in later chapters would be a blessing, particularly with dynasties like the Ottomans and Ming which last a long time, fast shipping Quinine. Quinine alternatives, And then there's the eternal problem: eventually, every textbook gets something wrong in your field, Quinine dosage. From the chapter "States and Societies: Political and Social Change in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries":
Buy Quinine Without Prescription, Clearly, however, for those who shared it, Japanese prosperity was founded on what the Japanese call the Great Peace: The era of internal peace that followed the reunification of Japan in 1600 under a dynasty of chief ministers, (( Technically, yes, the Tokugawa were subservient to the Emperor, but this obscures their function as warlords )) the Tokugawa, who ruled as shoguns in Edo, while the emperors remained secluded figureheads, performing sacred rites in a provincial court at the old capital in Kyoto. About Quinine, The key to stability was the management of relations between the shoguns and the 260 or so daimyo (( can anyone explain to me why 'shogun' gets pluralized and 'daimyo' doesn't. )) who ruled Japan's provinces, Quinine reviews. Quinine gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, The daimyo had to be drawn from a limited number of noble families (( define 'noble'. Daimyo were warlords, Quinine from mexico, Purchase Quinine online, often of fairly humble origins )) , but the shogun appointed (( sometimes meddled in succession, where can i find Quinine online, Buy no prescription Quinine online, yes )) and frequently transferred them from one domain to another (( relatively frequently at the beginning of the Edo period, but once things settle down, Quinine use, Buy Quinine online no prescription, they stay settled )) . Some daimyo, however, effectively managed to secure hereditary succession in their chosen regions, Buy Quinine Without Prescription. (( that's actually the norm, Quinine price, coupon, Order Quinine no prescription, not the exception )) The Shimazu lords of the huge, [sic] domain of Satsuma in southern Japan, order Quinine online overnight delivery no prescription, Online Quinine without a prescription, for instance, built up enough regional power to exercise effective autonomy (( most daimyo were effectively autonomous within their domains, rx free Quinine. Quinine pics, I can't think of too many ways in which Satsuma is an exception in this regard. )) (and, Quinine australia, uk, us, usa, Buy Quinine from mexico, eventually, in the nineteenth century to challenge the shoguns) ((This, discount Quinine, Quinine dangers, of course is the result of their size and leadership, not "effective autonomy" )), buy Quinine without prescription. Order Quinine from United States pharmacy, Normally , the Tokugawa obliged daimyo to maintain houses -- and, in effect, leave hostages -- at the shogun's court in Edo and reside there for part of each year. Buy Quinine Without Prescription, The shoguns also arranged marriages between daimyo families. (( Among the fudai, perhaps. Otherwise, the Shogun's authority was limited to giving permission, not making arrangements. )) In this respect, the system resembled the way many European monarchs dealt with their most powerful nobles.
I actually like that last line: the parallel between the sankin kotai system and Versailles came up in my Samurai class the other day, and it's not a bad one. But this description both inflates shogunal authority and obscures the cleverness of the Hideyoshi-Tokugawa settlement.
The social and economic discussion around it is OK, though I'm getting a little tired of the Saikaku as "the spokesman of the age" (657) thing. He gets the "closed country" thing right, which is very rare, citing Japan's absorption of Korean and Chinese ideas, including Confucianism, over this period. So, I'll be doing some damage control next week, but it won't be too bad: I love talking about the Hideyoshi-Tokugawa process as an example of state formation and dramatic social/political reform.

Feast Your Eyes on These Horrible Retro Hairstyles for Men
It's no secret that the menswear of the late 1960s and early 1970s was, frankly, awful. (All those synthetics and strange patterns—tsk tsk.) But it's easy to forget just how abysmal the hairstyles were, too. Who knew there were so many variations on the mullet? »

Friday Happy Dance Flowers
I still love the pink Cleome with the Zinnia - both are growing strong on this last day of August.
The Clematis Crimson Star finally bloomed! I planted it earlier this summer to grow up the garage trellis. Unfortunately I killed the one on the other side trying to remove a bastard weed that was growing along with it. Pink hedge roses are still blooming!
Are your flowers doing the Friday happy dance?? Happy Friday, my garden blogging buddies!

Saving Seeds or Saving Trash
The picture below is from Coneflower and I'm 99.9% sure THIS is trash, thanks to reading Mr Brown Thumb's saving Coneflower seed post. Oh well, maybe next time.
In other gardening news, as soon as GB read about how I was killing all my plants she promptly delivered 24-30 new seedlings for me to kill. Is she crazy????? No, seriously, she brought me 24-30 new plants!!!!! She came over and made me demonstrate how I would dig up a plant to move using a big weed to check my technique. I've never been so careful with a weed! It sorta felt like when your math teach makes you go to the board. She also showed me the proper way to move a plant by moving my Coreopsis Rosa herself. We planted all the seedlings and I watered them really well after she left. As I sit here typing they are in my garden dying. No, I'm joking. I am committed to keeping these alive! As God is my witness, I will not kill these plants!

Moving Plants = Killing Plants
The picture above is the Cleome that I left in the same spot and below is the poor section of Cleome that I moved this morning. Somebody call a plant doctor!!I'm guessing this thing will die but I'll keep watering it and hope for the best. The Rudbeckia Goldilocks looks about as bad plus I completely broke one of the two stems on it.
One thing I'm noticing is that I suck at transplanting stuff. All the passalong plants have pretty much died. What am I doing wrong? I don't really have this problem with plants I buy.

We've Got Melons! Part Deux
I was not very impressed with this melon. BUMMER! On a scale of A+ to F with A+ being the awesome delicious Cantaloupe I harvested the other day and F being any gag reflex inducing Brussel Sprout my mother ever made me eat, I'd give this a B-. It could be that I made a mistake by harvesting it right after all the rain we've had over the last week. Maybe that made it less sweet?
I think I'll wait until the stem drys out before harvesting the other one. If it doesn't taste way better than this one I'll definitely choose another variety next year. I'll grow Watermelon again for sure because I love the way the leaves look, but I need way more flavor than this to justify what a space hog this plant is.

Swimming Lettuce And Horizontal Zinnia
This past weekend it seemed like it rained for 40 days and 40 nights but it was actually only a couple of days.
As you may remember, there was water actually standing in my homemade cedar planter boxes that I had freshly planted with 3 different kinds of lettuce seeds. I just knew my lettuce was a goner, but look look! Man this stuff is growing like crazy after I removed the Bulls umbrella and exposed it to a few hours of sun. I was told by the CSA guy that I'd be eating fresh salad greens in 3 weeks and I did not believe him but after seeing this extreme growth I think he might be right!
I've noticed that my Zinna gets so tall that it kind of falls over. Take a look at the picture below. See how the pretty pink Zinnia looks like it's laying down? I love that! It's probably not so great for the plant but I think it's very cool looking. Does your Zinna lay down?

Dear Seed Saving Experts, HELP!
Speaking of seeds, below is my attempt to protect my freshly planted lettuce seeds. Within 1 hour of planting them it started raining, and raining, and raining. At some point I looked out the back door and there was water standing in the planter boxes, so I drug this freebie umbrella out of the basement. I have no clue if flooding them will keep them from germinating but I'll be watching them closely over the next few days. Go Bulls!

No TGIF For Rabbit
Him: "Nothing, just sitting here."
Me: "I'm just now leaving work, sorry I'm later than I thought I'd be."
Him: "That's okay"...."i just killed a rabbit"
Me: "WHAT???????"
Him: "I just killed a rabbit"
Me: "WHAT HAPPENED????"
Him: "I ran over it with the lawn mower"
Me: "ARE YOU SURE???? HOW DO YOU KNOW?????"
Him: "I saw fur flying"....it was by that spot in the grass where we were looking."
Me: "YOU SAW FUR??? OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!"
Him: "Yes, and guts and body parts....it really freaked me out and I don't think I can go back out there."
It was almost dark when I got home but I could see fur in the 4 x 4 foot square of uncut grass. I have no idea what we are gonna do about this. Both of us are horrible with this kind of thing. He said the other babies ran back in the hole after the one was chopped up. I wish they would just go away.
Gardening tomorrow is not gonna be nearly as fun as I had originally thought...

Rain Barrel In The Rain
Garden Buddy alerted me a while back that the City of Chicago was offering rain barrels to encourage water conservation and to help keep the sewers from getting clogged. This is a real problem in these parts - my basement flooded because of this the first weekend that we moved to this house. Anyway, GB is on vacation and today she picked one up for me and dropped it off in my backyard. GB - I love it when you are on vacation!
This is a horrible picture. I took it in the middle of a storm, at almost 8pm, with a flash, standing in the doorway so I wouldn't get wet. I could have waited for a better photo-op but I was so excited about it. Isn't this thing fabulous????? It seems way bigger than the ones I saw on the garden walk and it was only 40 bucks! The booklet that came with it suggested raising it on a platform and attaching soaker hoses to the spigot. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Torture deck = rain barrel platform?

Flowers From My Garden
I always wonder if most people cut flowers from their garden or just let them go until they are finished.
Sunday, August 12, 2007
I didn't find this window trolling through alleys for junk. It was thrown out by the people right behind us and I saw it one afternoon pulling into my garage. After seeing how much trellises cost I've been keeping an eye out for cheap ones and the first thing I thought when I saw this old window was CHEAP TRELLIS.
I took the glass out, sanded it a little and painted it lime green. This picture doesn't really show just how lime the green window is but I love it! I thought the color would look nice against the other shades of green in front of it and against a couple of peoples' advice I planted a Sweet Autumn Clematis at the foot of it. In my defense, I read that I could cut the SAC down to around 6-12 inches above ground in the Spring to keep it more manageable. So, that's the plan.

Weekend Warriors: Making Planter Boxes With Garden Buddy
Have you ever shopped for lumber? There is sooooooo much to choose from! We decided that there must be some system to the way it was organized but we couldn't figure it out so we just roamed around until we found what we needed. Her plan: build a 6 foot long 10 inch tall cedar planter box. My plan: build two 30 inch long 10 inch tall cedar planter boxes. After struggling to find a suitable cart we loaded our lumber then proceeded to roam around the store looking for various things like screws and potting soil. We were imagining that somebody somewhere was watching us driving the lumber cart around the store laughing at us but after lapping the store we eventually made it to the cutter guy. He wouldn't let me take a picture of him making the cuts "I don't think that's allowed in the store and I just don't want you to get in trouble". Whatever, dude!
After arriving home we set up a work bench on the patio table and got down to business. You should have seen us trying to get the first screw in. The screw was wobbling like crazy and I was laughing so hard I almost peed myself.
Afterward we hurriedly snapped a few pictures and I invited her in to cool off for a bit before heading home but she was concerned that she had left Mr. Garden Buddy home with the kids all day. It was 3pm and I didn't realize that neither of us had lunch. Heat and hypoglycemia are a bad combination! She ran for her car and I ran for the shower.
- We must have each burned our fingers at least 10 times from removing the pre-drilling screws that had become hot. We did it over and over and over again making me wonder if Pavlov's dog is smarter than us. It was the heat! We are both really smart - I swear!
- Conversation while trying to use my drill: GB "how do you know which way is reverse" Me: "I dunno"....next screw GB: "how do you know which way is reverse? my dads has a yellow thing" Me: "I dunno". We had this conversation at least 5 times. I still don't know! For some reason I have used this thing over and over and never even tried to figure it out. I just try it and if it doesn't work I assume it goes the other way.
I am so excited about my planter boxes! Check them out! They are a perfect fit for the aquarium stand! And isn't her long planter box awesome???
We had a good time today and we are already thinking of building benches next. We figure we are pros now.

AUSTIN, TX (AP) - The Texas School Safety Center is reporting 78 Texas school districts, including 15 in East Texas, either have failed to submit safety audits as required by law or don't meet full compliance.
Attorney General Greg Abbott said Monday the districts "can't let another second tick" without having a safety plan to deal with the possibility of school violence like the carnage in Connecticut.
The Texas School Safety Center was created in 1999 in the aftermath of the Columbine shootings in Colorado. The state education code requires public schools conduct safety audits once every three years.
Abbott's office says 38 of the state's 1,025 public school districts have filed no audit. Another 40 reported but aren't in compliance.
School districts in Shelby County, Frankston, Gary, Hooks, Laneville, Henderson County, Rusk County, Martinsville, Cumby, Timpson, Upshur County, Sabine County, Omaha, Woden and Zavalla all made the list from East Texas.
"We didn't report it to the Texas School Safety Center," said Cushing Superintendent Michael Davis. "It's as simple as that. We definitely have a plan, a good one. We just failed to report it."

Jim Schwartz Shows Class After Tough Defeat
Detroit Lions head coach Jim Schwartz demonstrates class in his post game press conference, after losing to the Bears on a ridiculously bad call that took away a winning touchdown catch from backup QB Shaun Hill to Calvin Johnson. Perhaps Vikings fans/players/coaches could take a lesson from this. Skip to 00:38 for the goods.

After a spectator at Tiger Woods' World Challenge charged Keegan Bradley with cheating for using a belly putter, the USGA on Sunday called the charge "deplorable."
The incident, which Bradley said occurred on the 18th hole of Saturday's third round at Sherwood Country Club, followed Wednesday's announcement by the USGA and R&A proposing a ban on anchored putting strokes. The proposed rule change would take effect on Jan. 1, 2016, unless golf's governing bodies determine they should enact it sooner.
Here's the complete statement from the USGA:
"This is a deplorable incident, and there is no place in our game for this kind of behavior. As we noted when announcing proposed Rule 14-1b, it has been and remains entirely within the Rules of Golf for players to anchor the club while making a stroke. There should not be a shred of criticism of such players or any qualification or doubt about their achievements, and we think that it is inappropriate even to suggest anything to the contrary. Rule changes address the future and not the past. Up until now and until such time as a Rule change were to be implemented, golfers using an anchored stroke will have been playing by the Rules of Golf."
"We are sorry that Keegan had to experience this unfounded criticism from an obviously uneducated spectator. Instead, Keegan and other PGA Tour professionals should be commended for their maturity and grace in managing through a proposed change to the Rules of Golf."
"While we understand that the proposed Rules change would cause some short-term angst, we believe the new Rule would serve the long-term best interest of the game."
Unfortunately, we're guessing that the USGA will have to issue many more such statements before the rules-makers enact the ban.

Crash critically injures pedestrian in Tice
By FOX 4 Staff. CREATED Apr 15, 2013
TICE Fla. - A Lehigh Acres woman was critically injured when she stepped into the path of an oncoming motorcycle on SR 80 just east of Wilma Avenue Sunday night.
The Florida Highway Patrol says 32-year-old Kristy Shawn Priddy and 22-year-old Anthony Ordones of Fort Myers, both tried to cross the highway just after 9 p.m. A motorcycle driven westbound on SR 80 by 48-year-old Brian Keith Sloan of Fort Myers tried to avoid the two but still hit Priddy and Ordones.
The impact critically injured Priddy and left Sloan with serious injuries. Ordones escaped with minor injuries.
The FHP cited Ordones for failure to yield to an oncoming vehicle. Charges are pending against Priddy.

Pace University and the OrgSync Lingo Marketing CampaignAugust 30, 2013
By Sean Livingston
In spring 2013, after four years on OrgSync, the Office of Student Development and Campus Activities decided to market a re-launch of OrgSync to our campus community with a specific focus on student leaders. It was our hope that more students would become familiar, comfortable, and active users of our system. To accomplish this goal, we created a brand to market OrgSync on our campus.
We adopted Dunkin Donut's tagline to state "Pace Runs on OrgSync." We married this slogan with several marketing materials and distributed them throughout the spring semester in training sessions, workshops, open seminars, and in personal interactions with our student leaders.
To further enhance our re-launch initiative, we created a campus poster campaign, lovingly titled "OrgSync Lingo". The posters emphasized the images, terminology, and explanations of the most commonly used modules within OrgSync. Some modules were Community Home, Treasury tools, Portal home pages, Calendars, Forms, and Login (as we were recently authenticated earlier in the year). The goal was to educate existing users, as well as new users, on the purpose and associated language of our software.
Lastly, we launched monthly OrgSync competitions for each of our portal users, focusing on the Welcome Page, Files, Multimedia Storage, and the Calendar function. We awarded one organization fifty dollars at the conclusion of each month and announced the winner utilizing the News Post module to increase traffic back to the community. In addition, at our Annual Pace Pride Celebration, we awarded one "OrgSync RockStar of the Year Award" to the student organization who best utilized all modules throughout the year.
Upon the conclusion of the year, we assessed the productivity and usage of each module, and the overall effectiveness of the marketing campaign. Our results showed we acquired a higher percentage of new users to our system than in prior semesters. In addition, we found our program to be moderately successful in returning users back into OrgSync, thus maximizing communication and participation within our student organizations. At Pace University in Pleasantville, we have discovered integrating OrgSync into all that we do has been beneficial to our students, as well as our administrators.
We hope our experiences can provide other campuses with new ideas to help facilitate the growth of OrgSync on campus. We'd love to hear what ideas have been successful for your marketing campaigns. the Associate Director for Student Development & Campus Activities.

This page is a list of Jews.
For more on who is considered Jewish, see Who is a Jew?.
The Jewish presence in the lands of Tsarist Russia (predominantly Russia, Ukraine and Belarus) and the Soviet Union dates back to the 7th century, when a group of Khazar tribes united, settled, and converted en masse to Judaism. A few years before the Shoah, the Jewish population of the Soviet lands (excluding the Baltic states) stood at over 5 million, most of whom were Ashkenazic as opposed to Sephardic, with some Karaite minorities. It is estimated that over half died directly as a result of the Shoah. Many more emigrated to Israel, USA and Germany, though Russia and the Ukraine still have among the larger Jewish populations in the world today (440,000 Russia, 300,000 Ukraine). The following is a list of people with significant Jewish heritage from the Soviet Union lands. It is geographically defined, so it includes people born before the creation of the Soviet Union in 1917 and people who became prominent subsequent to its break-up in 1990.

inekar is correct the ignition wire can be found at the cigar lighter and is grey, this is easier to get to than removing the radio, most of the avensis radio's did not have mute and if you start probing around to see if you can find it you may damage the radio, i would suggest you get a advanced mute lead installer which would allow the phone kit sound to come through the car speakers and mute the radio. Any Nokia accredited engineer would be able to do this.

Snorkeling in Balicasag Island Bohol
The World > Asia > Philippines
One of the destination in Panglao, Bohol when you go island hoping is the Balicasag Island. Where you can go snorkeling and see the different species of fish in the cliff underwater. The fish sanctuary is highly preserved by the native residence, you can see the corals beneath even if you are in the "banka" because of the crystal clear water. And if your are snorkeling, you may think that you are inside an aquarium because you can clearly see the fishes that swims around you. You'll never seen so much colorful fish up close sliding unto your hands battling against each other just to get a bite of bread or biscuits that you are holding.
While you were having fun underwater be reminded that there will be time that you will see the steep cliff while snorkeling and if you are afraid of dark water you better be prepare but you dont have to panic since there is a rope floating that serves as a warning that you are approching the cliff. For other its more fun cause its more extreme swimming on top of the cliff and its nice to have a picture you taken underwater besides the cliff. Occasionally, you will see divers underwater over the cliff thats how clear the water is. So if you want to experience diving you may want to try this first and have a feel of what it could be in the water.
Bangka rentals is P150 per person, that includes use of snorkling goggles, life jacket, footwear just dont forget to bring with you bread or biscuits for fish feeding

The Philippines are an archipelago of more than seven thousand islands off the southeast coast of Asia. Only half of these islands have been named and roughly one thousand are inhabited. Look at how beautiful they are! People first arrived here from the mainland around 25,000 B.C. by crossing a land bridge which existed at the time.
The name comes from Ferdinand Magellan of Portugal, who explored the Philippines in 1521. He claimed them in service of Spain, naming them after Prince Philip. Spain controlled the Philippines for the next 350 years until the Philippine Revolution of 1896.
Here's a picture of Fort Santiago, where the national hero Jose Rizal was imprisoned prior to his execution. He was a poet and novelist who supported peaceful reform, rather than violent revolution, against the Spanish government.
This is one of poems in which he describes the creation of the world, as a gift to his mother:
"Say they that tell of the world, the first dawn of the sun, the first kiss that his bosom inflamed, when thousands of beings surged out of nothing, and peopled the depths, and to the heights mounted, to wherever his fecund kiss was implanted"
Violent revolution broke out anyway and the Philippines changed hands from Spanish, to American, to Japanese control over the next fifty years. Following World War Two they finally became an independent republic.
Back to the beautiful ocean! You can dream about the Cafe Del Mar resort next time you find your screen saver kicking in when you're still sitting at the desk staring blankly. There's a series of DJ mixes with this title but I don't know if it refers to the same place. I would not be surprised.
Annnnd to really get you buying your plane tickets...

LAS VEGAS - Motorcycles speeding and racing on our roads, weaving in and out of traffic can have dangerous results. For the next two weeks, Metro Police will hold a distracted driver and motorcycle safety campaign to help make our roads safer.
The latest motorcycle crash happened Wednesday. The rider had to have his leg amputated on the scene by medics. Metro says speed was a factor when the motorcycle collided with a Mercedes. The rider suffered critical injuries.
Police hope lessons can be learned from accidents like that one. Motorcycle riders and automobile drivers can take steps to prevent accidents.
Authorities say the biggest problem is when a car makes a left turn in front of an oncoming motorcycle. The driver often doesn't see the motorcycle, because of its small size. Police say drivers often don't look far enough ahead and forget to check their blind spots for motorcycles before changing lanes.
When motorcycles are to blame in these crashes, Metro says speed often plays a role.
"We've had a number of unnecessary deaths that were speed related, and some of these young men in particular go get these extraordinarily fast bikes," said Metro Police Officer Marcus Martin. "What's a young man going to do with a fast motorcycle? So, we've seen a lot of those tragic incidents."
Police say some motorcycle riders also split lanes – or squeeze between lanes of traffic. That's illegal in Nevada. Police also remind all riders to wear their helmets.
Compared with last year, motorcycle deaths in Metro's jurisdiction are down 30 percent. Police say, however, one death is one too many.

Located within the hustle and bustle of urban Orlando, Shingle Creek provides a good look at the initial headwaters of the Everglades ecosystem. It's a great place to bike, hike, fish, kayak, canoe, and see wildlife. Canoe boat ramp available.
Adjacent to major tourist attractions and growth areas, the Shingle Creek Management Area is the last remaining natural area of its size in southwest Orange and northwest Osceola counties. The District has restored portions of the swamp with funding provided as mitigation to offset wetland impacts associated with construction of the Central Florida Beltway and other surrounding development projects. Shingle Creek is the major water source for Lake Tohopekaliga, which is part of the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes and forms the headwater of the Everglades. Because of the land's significance to the Everglades, the Shingle Creek Management Area is featured site along the Everglades Trail. Go to www.evergladestrail.org.
There are several ways to enjoy the property. You can hike the nature trail or paddle* the creek behind Hunters Creek Middle Creek School. Bicycling is another popular activity on the four miles of power line dirt roads linking the Middle School trail to the Hunter's Vista subdivision. An additional three miles of hiking trails are located within the east and west pine islands. A picnic shelter with tables is located at the east pine island. Finally, you can take a very short hike at the Marriott Trail. At this time, the Marriott Trail provides limited access to the management area and visitors are encouraged to use one of the other access sites.
Cypress, gum trees, and wet prairies that ring pine islands are evidence the land stays mostly wet. A variety of wildlife such as white-tailed deer, alligators, wild turkey and wading birds thrive in the Shingle Creek corridor. Bring your fishing pole, bicycle, binoculars, or canoe. Either way, you'll get a good look at the initial headwaters of the Everglades ecosystem.
NOTE: A primitive canoe launch is located at the Hunter's Creek Middle School access.
Hunter's Creek Middle School entrance: 13400 Town Loop Boulevard Orlando, FL 32837. One-half mile west on South Town Loop Boulevard from John Young Parkway in Hunter's Creek.

The Middle School access is open only during non-school hours, weekends and holidays.
Power line entrance: where the power lines cross Tarragona Drive, Orlando, FL 32837. Parking is available at Vista Park in the Vistas Neighborhood of Hunter's Creek on Hunter's Vista Boulevard. Go west approximately two miles on Town Center Boulevard from John Young Parkway to Hunter's Vista Boulevard. Turn right onto Hunter's Vista Boulevard. Travel north approximately one mile to the parking area located on the left at Vista Park just passed Flora Vista Way. To access the trailhead, follow the signs and walk north 1/3 mile along the power line easement to the management area.
The Marriott Trail entrance: 11501 International Drive, Orlando, FL 32821. The trail is about 1/2 mile south from Central Florida Parkway and three 3/4 miles north from State Road 417 on International Drive at the Marriott Grande Vista Resort.

Pretty good dose of nature given the suburban location. We encountered a good bit of wildlife on our short excursion, including a couple small gators, a river otter, turtles, a water mocassin, and plenty of white ibis, great blue herons, and egrets. We started at the trail head behind Hunters Creek Middle School. There are now signs at the road directing you to trail parking which is in the same place as the school's bus entrance. Just past the trail head you'll walk across a bridge to the other side of the creek. The trail continues north along the side of the creek for about 1/4 mile, until you come to a power line clearing. We followed the power lines west to East Pine Loop and stopped at the first picnic area there for lunch. Our route ended up being about 2.5 miles round trip. The trail was pretty well marked, and the terrain is easy so long as it's dry. Only downside is the eyesore of the power lines/man-made drainage, and a bit of litter and graffiti near the trail head. Watch out for snakes and poison ivy.

We started from behind the middle school. Yes it's a nice little oasis in the city at first but about 1/4 mile in you're in a big field with nothing but power lines. We took the east pine island loop. It was nice but nothing exciting. We'd go back again but only because it's a couple blocks from our home.

So far I've found 4 different trailheads to Shingle creek. So it can be confusing. If you start from inside the neighborhood of Hunter's Creek then yeah it does seem like nothing but power lines. Starting from the school not so much.
I've only been out to the pine island loop out there. The 1st time I was out there the trials were well marked. Now some are over grown & I think I ended up following an animal trial.

Hiked this trail today and have some advice to add to the list here for this trail. Someone else mentions that it should be called a walk along the power lines. They are not kidding I would say that more than half of the trail is a walk down primitive dirt road following high tension wires(it is a mile of walking along the power lines that you have to do both ways). There is no shade, no place to stop and water on both sides of you. So make sure that you have plenty of water, insect repellent and sunscreen. I also rolled the dice and got caught in 3 rain showers during this walk with no cover. And if you choose to do it during the hurricane season like I just did it might be better described a long slough through the mud under power lines as the ground was pretty well saturated the entire walk. Oh and it is mentioned elsewhere that you have to park behind the school. You will need to take the "Buses only" lane to get to the trail head where their is a lot of parking right there. I parked beside the school and walked past about 80 empty spaces to get to the trail head. The first part of the trail is in my opinion the only part worth walking but it is probably only about a half a mile, but there is tons of wildlife, especially birds. I saw Turkeys, Ibis, Anhingas, owls, hawks, lesser blue herons, egrets, etc... None the less this is a very easy trail and could easily be done by the all levels of hikers (of course I did just come back from a week of hiking in the smoky mountains so it seemed really flat)

This is a run-down of all the interesting areas you can ride in Shingle Creek. I haven't been riding at too many places yet, but the side trails on this site would probably be considered on the short side but can be pretty technical. Some areas have e.g. lots of roots, then a bridge, then a bunch of trees on an uphill. Another area has a downhill, a bridge you have to turn to run across at the base of the hill, then an uphill with roots. There are two loops at Shingle Creek, but only one is accessible right now (the first loop). The other one is blocked by muck. The three main areas of interest are: 1) Cross the bridge at the trail entrance, turn right, follow the main trail out to the power lines, then turn left and follow the power lines to the first loop on the right, watch for the well worn path. There is a shaded pavilion near the loop start. The loop is a short endurance loop, some softer and/or grassy areas; 2) Cross the bridge at the trail entrance, turn left, this is a more technical area. some roots and a few tight spots where you have to watch the pedal position, etc; 3) Go to the canoe launch (opposite end of the parking lot from the main trail entrance), make a left when you get to the creek. This is the most difficult trail here, it goes awhile, under a few bridges, past a housing development, back into the woods, and pretty much stops at an area that overlooks a bridge along Town Center Boulevard. The beginning part of the trail is pretty technical, a lot of root watching, pedal height watching (some hidden tall roots), ups and downs, bridges, etc... but it is probably the most fun you will have here. If it is your first time here, do take your time and learn the paths before going breakneck speeds.
There is some wildlife to be seen. The creek water is generally crystal clear and you can see fish if you stop and look. Also snakes, turtles, birds, alligators, I almost got bowled over by a deer crossing the path at the loop (feet between us).
7.3 miles, about 1.5 hours, assumes you do all the trails mentioned above once, moderate pace, taking two short breaks.
It's a good ride, wear a helmet, bike safe and have fun.

Finding the trail head was a little difficult as the parking area is actually behind the school. You have to turn into the bus lane and follow it around behind the school. When I pulled into the parking area, I was greeted by two big turkey gobblers. Evidently, they knew it was turkey season and had taken refuge on the school property. The trail head is very inviting, with a scenic view from the bridge crossing shingle creek. The trail then turns right along the creek and follows it approximately a half mile to the power lines. From here, it becomes more of a walk along the power lines than a scenic trail. I did see quite a few water foul and a couple of hawks. Great for the bird watchers. Of which, I am not and couldn't tell you what kind of birds I was looking at. There was an FWC Officer patrolling the trail and some young spring breakers were having some fun on their dirt bike. Although, they were very mindful of not tearing up the trail. The creek was definitely the high point of this hike and there is a launch site here for a canoe or kayak. That may be the better way to view this park.

I just moved to Hunters Creek from Knoxville and this was the first non-paved trail I've been on. It was a nice departure from the asphalt jungle that is Orlando. The trail head is right behind the middle school and starts on a wooden bridge.
First impressions of the trail were very good as there was good scenery and bumps and mounds to cruise over. The beginning is wooded and runs right next to some swampy water.
About a quarter of a mile after you start you will hit the power cut which is long and flat and pretty boring. Off of it is the East Pine Loop which was a rough trail about 1 to 2 miles long. I would avoid this as the trail got pretty soupy in spots and I was ATTACKED by big flies that enjoyed biting me. Oh yeah...bring bug spray! You will need it.
After the East Pine Loop I got back on the power cut and found a sign for a West Pine Loop. It told me to go north along another power cut to find the loop so I did, but I don't think I ever found the trail. After about 2 miles the cut has a large swamp the breaks it up. I was tempted to carry my bike through it but decided against it.
So at this point I went all the way back to the beginning of the trail right up to the wooden bridge but realized that there was a trail off to the left of the bridge as well. This was a much better section of trail and was some fun MTBing. So here's my advice: if you are biking this trail take a LEFT off the the initial bridge. It filters you right but go left.
Overall I enjoyed the ride. It would have been better with some spray and some long socks both of which I won't forget next time. I live a mile away so I will be back, but the search will continue for trails with more difficulty and variety. Happy Trails!
