To sell tickets to an event directly from your nation, first create a new donation page or invoice page which will be used to sell tickets to your event.
Next, create and configure a new event page. When on Event details, check "Sell tickets" and select either the donation page or the invoice page you just configured. If you are using a donation page, we recommend create a tracking code in the Event settings page, you'll be able to clearly track who has purchased tickets, how many, and how much money you've raised. Then click on Advanced under Event details, and specify a tag for RSVPs. Finally, click Tickets to configure your ticket levels.
Later, you will be able to target everyone who RSVP'd for an email blast by using the RSVP tag you specified, and you can get a detailed breakdown of ticket purchases on the Finances page by selecting the tracking code you created. You can print a list of everyone who purchased a ticket to verify people at the door by clicking the RSVP button while editing your event page.
RSVPs will receive two emails: one confirming the RSVP and one confirming ticket payment (either a donation receipt or invoice receipt). You can configure both of these emails on the pages connected to them.
Alternatively, you can accept RSVPs for your event and send people to a third party website to purchase tickets. To do this, do not check the box next to Sell tickets in Event details, then on the Tickets page, indicate the URL to direct people to purchase tickets.

John Arthur commented 2014-10-17 01:47:29 -0700 · FlagHas anybody from the development team taken note of Alex Adranghi's solution in liquid below? If it's already been flagged how this can be done in the code, for nearly a year now, can we have this enabled this way in cPanel soon please?
1. Option to link ticket levels to membership types
2. Free RSVP as a ticket level for ticketed events
C.J.'s two-page work around really doesn't cut it as a permanent solution. It's not only a hassle, it's just too complex to explain to volunteers and leaves all event creation in the lap of an organization's tech support… really not cool.
Tammy Hornek commented 2014-08-25 14:29:01 -0700 · FlagWhy can't I add a ticket level that allows a price of zero? This is baffling to me! If you would allow this functionality, along with one custom field, we could allow people to register for zero amount and provide their promo code.
Stacia Cosner commented 2014-07-01 10:12:54 -0700 · FlagAny updates on the discount code functionality for events?
Warren Lee commented 2014-04-16 14:03:06 -0700 · FlagWhen is Nationbuilder going to have coupon/discount codes for events? We could really use an option to give certain people a code that allows them to register for an event for a discounted or free rate. This is crucial for us to track referrals from partners, and easily comp VIP's for our events.
Every other event registration system seems to have this option:

Alex Adranghi commented 2014-02-05 03:20:56 -0800 · FlagI've found a way around being able to sell tickets to non-members and tickets to members (or any other defined distinction). All I've done is simply show the appropiete RSVP/Ticketing interface through a liquidtag if clause. Seems to be working.
C.J. MinsterCheng commented 2014-01-22 08:45:01 -0800 · FlagSommer – the other option is to create two events, one of which is only viewable to members. You could add a link in the introduction of the main event page – something like "We offer discounted tickets for the luncheon to our members. If you're a member, click here to purchase your tickets." Members would need to login to see a page viewable only to members.
Ben Kempas commented 2014-01-22 03:20:11 -0800 · FlagJay – Unless something has changed recently, you would still need two different events, one ticketed and one not, which inter-link somewhere (preferably where the ticket levels are being displayed).
Sommer – Not automatically. You would need to set up two ticket levels and trust that members and non-members choose the right one. You would probably have to check these manually rather than with a filter, as ticket levels for one event don't generate separate tracking codes or tags (would be nice if they would!).
Sommer Cronck commented 2014-01-21 15:50:36 -0800 · FlagIs it possible to give a member price (or member discount) on event tickets? For instance, my luncheons are $25 for non members, but $15 for members. So I would want to either set up a $10 member discount or a $15 member-only price.
jay matthew commented 2014-01-16 13:40:42 -0800 · FlagTo clarify, is is possible to sell tickets and not sell tickets to the same event. Or do I need to sell tickets when the tickets are enabled. It is hard making something seem like a "suggested" donation when they have no other option.

—Exodus 20:1–2
Before the Lord gave the first of the Ten Commandments to Moses, He offered a reminder of what He has done for His people, the Israelites. He was saying, "Remember, I brought you out of
In the same way, we were once living under the power of sin. We were facing a Christless eternity and a certain judgment. But God in His great mercy loved us and reached out to us. And when we put our faith in Him through His Son, Jesus Christ, He pardoned us and forgave us of every sin that we had ever committed.
God was saying to the Israelites, "Before I tell you what I want you to do for Me, I want to remind you of what I have done for you." The same principle is true for us. God is saying to us, "Before I give you My laws and standards, I want to remind you of what I have done for each of you."
Now if I really appreciate what God has done for me, it should be my privilege and pleasure to seek to live a life that is pleasing to Him. It is not because I have to, but because I want to. As 1 John 4:19 reminds us, "We love Him because He first loved us." Our obedience to God's commandments should spring from our love.

Lady Gaga and Polaroid, Together at Last!
Posted by David Ozanich — 7 Jan 2011
Lady Gaga, dressed like the Bride of Death, touched down in Las Vegas yesterday to unveil her collaboration with Polaroid called "Polaroid Grey Label". And what glorious fruits did this collaboration yield?
The most interesting is the GL 20 which is a pair of sunglasses that takes pictures while you wear them and displays the photo on the lenses for others to see. Very meta, I suppose. I imagine they will also assist in helping you not read her Poker Face. So camera sunglasses basically - I know you've been needing a pair of these. But you can use Bluetooth to send the photos to a mobile printer called the GL10.
The GL30, meanwhile, is a more traditional, or perhaps classic, Polaroid camera that still allows you to print photos instantly. To be honest with you though, I can't quite discern whether or not you also have to GL10 portable printer to do that or if the camera does it on its own. I'm assuming the camera has its own printing capabilities as otherwise it would basically just be a digital camera.
The printer will be available in May at a retail price of $149.99. The other two items will be available at some point this year with prices yet to be determined.
Below you can watch Lady Gaga make the announcement and fuss with the prototypes. If you so desire, you may read the press release. I've also seen Gizmodo and Rolling Stone weigh in.
So, I don't know, I guess I want a pair?

The Feast of St. BlaiseFR. WILLIAM SAUNDERS
As a child, I remember having my throat blessed on the Feast of St. Blaise. I was never too sure who he was or why we did this. Also, it seems like the practice has been forgotten. Would you please help me.
In accord with various traditions, St. Blaise was born to rich and noble parents, and received a Christian education. He was a physician before being consecrated a bishop at a young age. Although such a statement seems terse, keep in mind that at that time the local community usually nominated a man to be a bishop based on his outstanding holiness and leadership qualities; he in turn was then examined and consecrated by other bishops with the approval of the Holy Father. Therefore, St. Blaise must have been a great witness of our Faith, to say the least.
During the persecution of Licinius, St. Blaise, receiving some divine command, moved from the town, and lived as a hermit in a cave. Wild animals visited, and he healed any that were sick and wounded. One day, a group of hunters gathering wild beasts for the ame in the amphitheater discovered St. Blaise and seized him. As he was being taken to the governor Agricolaus, the governor of Cappadocia and Lesser Armenia, St. Blaise encountered a woman whose pig was being seized by a wolf; St. Blaise commanded the wolf to release the pig, and it was freed unhurt.
While in prison, he miraculously cured a small boy who was choking to death on a fishbone lodged in his throat. Also, the woman whose pig had been saved brought St. Blaise candles so that his cell would have light and he could read the sacred Scriptures.
Eventually, Agricolaus condemned St. Blaise for upholding his Christian faith rather than apostatizing. He was tortured with the iron comb (an instrument designed for combing wool but was used here for shredding the skin) and finally beheaded.
By the sixth century, St. Blaise's intercession was invoked for diseases of the throat in the East. As early as the eighth century, records attest to the veneration of St Blaise in Europe, and he became one of the most popular saints in the spiritual life of the Middle Ages. Many altars were dedicated to his honor, and even the Abbey of St. Blaise in southern Germany claimed to have some of his relics.
St. Blaise is also venerated as one of the "Fourteen Holy Helpers," a group of saints invoked as early as the 12th century in Germany and who are honored on Aug. 8: St. Denis of Paris (headache and rabies), St. Erasmus or Elmo (colic and cramp), St. Blaise (throat ailments), St. Barbara (lightning, fire, explosion and sudden and unprepared death), St. Margaret (possession and pregnancy), St. Catherine of Alexandria (philosophers and students, and wheelwrights), St. George (protector of soldiers), Sts. Achatius and Eustace (hunters), St. Pantaleon (tuberculosis), St. Giles (epilepsy, insanity, and sterility), St. Cyriac (demonic possession), St. Vitus (epilepsy), and St. Christopher (travelers). The German Dominicans promoted this veneraion, particularly at the Church of St. Blaise in Regensburg (c. 1320).
One reason for St. Blaise's popularity arose from the fact he was a physician who cured, even performing miraculous cures. Thereby, those who were sick, especially with throat ailments, invoked his intercession. Eventually the custom of the blessing of throats arose, whereby the priest held two crossed candles over the heads of the faithful or touched their throats with them while he invoked the prayer of the saint and imparted God's blessing. In our present Roman Ritual, the priest prays, "Through the intercession of St. Blaise, bishop and martyr, may God deliver you from every disease of the throat and from every other illness, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." This practice continues in many parishes on St. Blaise's feast day.
While we invoke St. Blaise for his protection against any physical ailment of the throat, we should also ask is protection against any spiritual ailment — profanity, cursing, unkind remarks, detraction or gossip. St. James reminds us, "If a man who does not control his tongue imagines that he is devout, he is self-deceived; his worship is pointless" (1:26) and later, "We use [the tongue] to say, Praised be the Lord and Father'; then we use it to curse men, though they are made in the likeness of God. Blessing and curse come out of the same mouth. This ought not to be, my brothers!" (3:9-10). Therefore, may St. Blaise protect us from all evil, physical and spiritual, which may attack the throat.

Bling is a special kinda sparkly magic that happens between you and your financeabilities. Bling is the shine of the big pimpin' high life as flashed and splashed across the new media plasma-screen. Early hip-hop was politics; late hip-hop is strip bars, cars, and bling. Bling constitutes an announced utopian capitalism-Ka-ching! Bling is the thing.
The thing about Bling is the status it portends, and that is exactly the script that Celebrity, by Benjamin Schulman, so neatly flips. His lawn jockey jug is a traditional Peruvian figure vessel in the form of the little black ring holder who graced front yards all around America not so very long ago as a disturbing signal of white wealth and privilege. Schulman flocks
the form, that is, black velvetizes it (a very strange finish for ceramics), and gives the little
man earrings in the form of tiny diamond stars. suggesting an Adidas-clad rapper in
motion. There is more than the suggestion here that hip-hop's embrace of big bucks is
also a full-scale capitulation to advertising the joys of capitalist enslavement. Sorry,s Miss
Jackson, but I am for real.
A similarly successful figurative piece is John de Fazio's Gold Spaceman Bong. This miniature bright gold astronaut is fully smokable, a great send-up of certain individual "space programs" and a classic reference to every high school ceramics class ever taken.
Chris Antemann's Are You Jealous? rounds out this trio of strong figurative pieces with an exquisitely wrought vision of two nubile nymphets bookending an elaborate, mini Marie Antoinette-style trousseau. All white and gold, these nymphs have Nubian attributes; the piece is as appealing in the wit of its subject as in the consummate craftsmanship that inhabits its every subtle detail. You know there's styly stuff inside that fancy box you wish you could get into, and that stuff is Bling, darling.
A lovely near-nude baby mama wrapped around your, um, arm, wouldn't exactly ruin your day either. Do you object to objectification or Are You Jealous?
These are just three of the most stellar pieces in a thirty-seven-piece show of immense inventiveness and well-crafted clay conceptualism. Santa Fe Clay sparkles, shines, and shimmers like an old jewel being reset amidst the chaos of new construction on the Railyard. The place is actually pretty unpretentious considering how valuable it is to this community. Proving that you don't hafta glimmer to be golden.

Atlanta Hawks rookie point guard Dennis Schroder got hit with a one-game suspension from the NBA for striking Kings center DeMarcus Cousins in the groin during Tuesday's game in Sacramento.
Schroder's suspension is effective immediately and he will miss tonight's game in Denver.
The incident occurred at the 9:54 mark in the fourth quarter of the Hawks' 105-100 win as Schroder was defending Isaiah Thomas and was trying to fight through a screen set by Cousins.
Schroder told the AJC he was just trying to get around the screen.
"I was guarding Isaiah Thomas, and we got tangled up as I was trying to get around the screen," Schroder said Wednesday. "I was just focused on getting back into position and in front of my guy."
Hawks head coach Mike Budenholzer defended his rookie by saying "Dennis was just trying to get over the pick that Cousins set. They got tangled up for a second, which happens all the time defending the pick and roll."
It's worth noting that a foul was not called on the play and Schroder was not penalized during the game.
With Schroder out for tonight's game against the Nuggets, third-string point guard Shelvin Mack will likely see an increased workload.

Benin: Polygamy somewhat out of bounds - if not out of fashion
The merits of monogamy and polygamy have come under vigorous discussion in Benin recently, with the passage of a law that encourages the first - but tolerates the second.

Independent audit praises the "dynamism, commitment and expertise" in the Diocese of Meath.
The NBSCCCI review was undertaken in December 2013 and January 2014. The purpose of the review is to confirm that current safeguarding practice complies with the standards set down within the guidance issued by the National Board and that all known allegations and concerns have been appropriately dealt with.
In its summary, the report concludes as follows:
"The reviewers consider that safeguarding children in the Diocese of Meath is a responsibility taken with the utmost seriousness by diocesan personnel under the leadership and direction of Bishop Smith. The safeguarding team have collectively impressed as a dynamic, hardworking and highly informed group. Together they have brought their expertise to bear in developing a comprehensive safeguarding policy and implementation strategy. It is clear from all sources of information reviewed that there is great enthusiasm and determination in the diocese to oversee the best possible practice. … It is evident that Bishop Smith has shown commitment to and leadership in the development of very good standards in the child safeguarding policies, procedures and practices of the Diocese of Meath. The dynamism, commitment and expertise demonstrated by all whom the reviewers came into contact with are highly commended." (pp 34 – 35)

Turnover and sales sharply increased in Q1 2012, primarily due to the acquisition of Macsteel Service Centers USA. At EUR 45 million, operating income (EBITDA) was down on the strong first quarter of 2011, which was boosted by windfall profits, but EUR 31 million up on the preceding quarter and so within the forecast range of EUR 40 to EUR 50 million.
Klöckner & Co increased turnover in the first three months of fiscal 2012 by 24.0% to 1.9 million tonnes as compared with the prior year quarter (1.5 million tonnes), as a result of acquisitions. Compared with Q4 2011, turnover showed an increase of 13.5% due to the seasonal upturn in business.
The divergent trend in the turnover performance of the Europe and Americas segments experienced in 2011 continued in even more pronounced form in the first quarter. In the Europe segment, turnover was 5.1% down on the prior year owing to the difficult economic environment and portfolio streamlining. Germany was the only country where Klöckner & Co generated slight growth in turnover, whereas business conducted in Spain once again declined substantially.
In contrast, turnover in the Americas segment increased by 125.4% compared with Q1 2011, mainly due to the acquisition of Macsteel. Also on an organic basis, however, Americas segment turnover was well ahead of both, the market and the prior year period, with growth of 11.8%. Organic turnover for the Group as a whole showed a slight 1.4% decrease due to the ground lost in Europe.
Sales followed the trend in turnover, increasing by 22.6% relative to the prior year period to some EUR 1.9 billion in Q1 2012. Excluding acquisitions, Group sales were broadly on a par with the prior year (-0.5%).
EBITDA, at EUR 45 million, was below the prior year figure of EUR 104 million, which was boosted by large windfall profits, but tripled compared with the figure for Q4 2011. EBIT for the first three months of the fiscal year came to EUR 18 million (Q1 2011: EUR 86 million) and earnings before taxes (EBT) to EUR -6 million (Q1 2011: EUR 66 million). Net income accordingly dropped from EUR 44 million to EUR -10 million. Basic earnings per share came to EUR -0.10, compared with a EUR 0.65 in the prior year quarter.
Total assets increased reflecting the usual seasonal upturn in business activity following the winter. The main driver behind the increase was a rise in funds tied up in net working capital from EUR 1,534 million to EUR 1,656 million. The increased need for net working capital was also reflected in net financial debt, which rose as expected from EUR 471 million at the year end to EUR 573 million. Net financial debt was nonetheless kept low relative to equity, with gearing of 35%. The equity ratio stood at roughly 38% as of March 31st 2012, compared with 39% at the 2011 year end. Liquidity remains at a high level of EUR 937 million, compared with EUR 987 million as of December 31, 2011.
Back in September 2011, Klöckner & Co responded to the reduced growth forecasts as a result of the ongoing sovereign debt crisis in Europe by initiating a profitability action plan. Alongside cuts in administration costs and sales overheads, the plan centers on the discontinuation of insufficiently profitable business activities. The number of jobs in Europe is to be cut by 700 as a result. Some 400 jobs had been cut by the end of the first quarter. Initial steps were also completed in the first quarter to close unprofitable locations and business activities. Subsidiaries in Spain and Eastern Europe are particularly affected. The profitability improvement measures will be fully implemented by the middle of the year. Alongside implementation of the restructuring measures in Europe, an additional focus was on the further integration of Macsteel. To this end, the branding was standardized, management structures, administration and procurement brought together, and the groundwork laid for IT integration in the second quarter. In addition to the increased significance of the US business, the considerable synergies and cross selling effects resulting from completion of the integration are leading to an above average contribution to earnings from the Americas segment.
Mr Gisbert Rühl chairman of the management board of Klöckner & Co SE said that "The Macsteel acquisition meant we could particularly benefit from the robust economic trend in the USA. In Europe, as we expected, the environment remains difficult. With substantial overcapacity dominating the market, competition is very fierce. On top of this, customers continue to be unsettled by the ongoing sovereign debt crisis."

It's another Bachelor break-up: Vienna Girardi and Kasey Kahl have called it quits.
"Yes vienna and I have split. It's been 5 weeks now. I can't fake it anymore. I will always love, be there for her, and wish her the best," Kahl, 27, posted to Twitter on Sunday.
"@KaseyRKahl will always be my best friend, but yes we have split. No idea what the future holds for us but we will always remain friends," Girardi, 25, posted to her account.

As the game dwindles down to the bare essentials, so does the swimwear. Synchronized swimming? Brilliant!
Last year during Bachelor Pad we all kept talking about how great it would be to use this pool for one of the challenges. From swim relays to biggest-splash contests to underwater-lap contests, we did it all. However, the long awaited official Bachelor Pad pool challenge never came to season 1. Which was a bummer too because I (Kiptyn) had my Speedo ready for action.
Thankfully, a highly entertaining pool challenge came splashing down this season here on episode 3. And now the Bachelor mansion has officially seen it all and can put that ever-elusive final check-mark in the historically blank column labeled, "seven grown men chant 'flutter, flutter, flutter, flutter.' "
While the pool challenge was mostly laughs and smiles, the rest of this week's episode was filled with tears and trouble. Trouble these days seems to find couples specifically. Watching Kasey and Vienna fight again this week was brutal. They've both said that the root of their conflict stems from Jake being in the house. Now that Jake has gone home, can we expect to have seen the last of the Kasey and Vienna clashing? We really hope so for their sake and their housemates' sake, but we fear that this relationship is a frequent flyer in the danger zone and the pilot isn't to blame (if you catch our drift).

Is the Jake Pavelka-Vienna Girardi-Kasey Kahl triangle on ABC's Bachelor Pad as tumultuous as it appears?
Well, the three won't be sharing tea anytime soon, but the show's power couple said they actually don't harbor any ill will toward the former Bachelor star.
"Let me publicly say that we honestly have no problems with Jake," Kahl told PEOPLE Saturday at Las Vegas's Studio 54. "We wish Jake the best. Seriously, we're happy. We came to play the game and we did. I wish him the best and she wishes him the best. We're so happy and we really want him to be happy, too."
Girardi, Pavelka's former fiancée, said, "It's forgiven, it's forgotten. Good luck to him in whatever endeavors he wishes to do."

New season of Bachelor Pad, new drama.
According to last season's winner, Natalie Getz, when contestants from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette compete against each other for $250,000, tensions are bound to flare.
"I think it's going to be a complete s– show to be honest with you and I can't wait," Getz told PEOPLE. "It's going to be super dramatic."
One source of tension will undoubtedly be the reunion of exes Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi, who share the house with Girardi's current love interest Kasey Kahl (best known for getting a tattoo on Ali Fedotowsky's season). While Getz says that the love triangle did result in fighting, the contestants were able to move past it.

Bachelor Pad is back – so let the backstabbing begin!
The ABC show, which reunites some of the most memorable contestants from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette to compete for $250,000, will bring together exes Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi, a source tells PEOPLE, when season 2 premieres Aug. 8 on ABC.
Pavelka and Girardi's split last June ended in a nasty feud that played out on national TV, as Jake accused his season's winner of being unfaithful, while she said he was a liar and a "fame whore."

Vienna Girardi is head over heels for her new beau Kasey Kahl, but admits she was nervous to be dating again after her highly publicized split from ex-fiancé Jake Pavelka.
The former Bachelor winner, 24, still has reservations about getting close to anyone, based on what she calls a "train-wreck" experience with her former love.
"Even opening up to Kasey, like, we were dating for a few months, but I didn't want it to go public because I wanted to make sure it was real," Girardi told PEOPLE this weekend at Reality Rocks Expo in L.A. "I am absolutely scared of the possibility of getting engaged again. It scares me 100 percent."

Jake Pavelka, Danielle Staub, Heidi Montag and other reality alumni are all going into the food business together for an upcoming series that places some big personalities under heavy pressure, PEOPLE has learned.
"They are revamping a restaurant from the ground up," says a source on the set of the new reality series, slated to air on VH1. "They started shooting this past weekend."

Her romance with Jake Pavelka didn't work out, but Vienna Girardi isn't giving up on finding love within The Bachelor franchise.
Girardi, 24, has been cozying up to Bachelorette contestant Kasey Kahl, whose catch phrase "guard and protect your heart" was tattooed on his wrist in an effort to impress Ali Fedotowsky when he vied for her affection on season 6.
"They are dating and have been for a few months," Girardi's rep confirms to PEOPLE. "They've been spending time together in his Fresno [Calif.], hometown, working on some projects for his non-profit, Guard and Protect Hearts, Inc."

It is possible to cruise to a number of destinations from Langkawi and Penang in Malaysia, Phuket in Thailand, Mergui in Myanmar Burma, the Andaman Islands, Singapore Sumatra and Borneo. Normally the weather is perfect for sailing with calm sea conditions and light to moderate breezes. The scenery here is extremely unusual and spectacular, towering limestone islands rise from the sea, magnificent cliffs, caves, stalagmites, stalactites. Wildlife abounds above and below the waves and we often see sea eagles, monkeys, wild boar, otters, dolphins, manatee, rays and much more (if wildlife is of interest this can be a feature in your cruise so please ask).
See our News Pages on A Day Skipper Course from Phuket to Langkawi ....... Sailing between Langkawi and Phuket, Sailing in Myanmar ..... The Andaman Islands...... A Cruise Around Langkawi written by guests on their Yacht Charter, Sailing Holiday, Yachting Vacations or Learn to Sail Holiday Cruises and RYA Sailing Courses.
Many Sailing Holiday Cruises incorporate the Islands between Langkawi and Phuket, Pang Gna Bay, and the Island of Penang. Langkawi has some superb and very un spoilt islands and beaches while the Islands on the way to Phuket are amongst the most dramatic in the world (see Taratoa, Lanta, Mook, Phi Phi and many more). Pang Gna Bay is famous for its spectacular islands and "Hong's" not to mention James Bond Island as well as some great snorkeling and diving sites. The Islands South of Langkawi have an abundance of fish life and good snorkeling before reaching the old and colourful colonial port of Penang. There are several options and we will as far as possible design these Sailing Cruises and Courses to suit you so please let us know your preferences when booking. Please note that the dates and destinations listed below are subject to change so please check all details before booking.

We are ready for a busy and active sailing season through into next year. Whether you want to charter the whole boat or join one of our cruises and courses we will be more than happy to hear from you. There is a plan above but the dates and destinations can be changed if these do not suit your requirements and all plans are subject to change so please check before booking. Also if you have something special in mind get in touch and I will plan something just for you - let me turn your dreams into reality.
We plan to stay in Asia cruising between Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Burma, Cambodia Vietnam, Hong Kong and Philippines. There is a huge amount to do and see here. The area is a place of extremes from highly westernised tourist and business areas to remote fishing villages. With hundreds of different islands there is a vast cultural diversity. Interesting artifacts abound including textiles, painting, jewellery, furniture and carvings. There are some amazing things to see including volcanoes, mountains, rain forests, buffalo, monkeys, deer, wild pigs, native sailing pinisi' and canoes, reef diving, surfing and fishing to name a few. The people are wonderfully friendly and interested. Their own cultures vary considerably from island to island and from village to village. This area is really the most interesting place I have visited to date with so much extra potential to explore. The Sailing and Cruising has been excellent with calm seas, clear blue skies, great scenery, clear water and good snorkeling, plenty of fish to see, catch as well as friendly visits to the local villages. I have recently seen a 12 - 15 meter Whale Shark, Dolphin, Reef Sharks, Leopard Shark and Manta Rays in these waters.
Safety Issues
At the time of writing, although there may be travel advisories issued by various governments they normally relate to major resorts and do not apply to small and remote islands. We are not aware of any current political or religious disturbances in the area which would cause a problem. No where is 100% safe anymore but the main targets are always going to be places with a high density of people. As we specialise in finding quiet and remote places we tend to spend most of our time well out of the way of any potential trouble spots. Some parts of southern Thailand should avoid them. Contact us if you have any concerns and we will endeavour to supply the best and most recent information available.
You should of course take the same precautions against theft etc., that you would take at home or anywhere else. I have no hesitation in recommending the area as a holiday destination.
The Cruise So Far
Overall Planning
The itinerary has been drawn up to make best use of world weather patterns, including trade winds and avoiding tropical storms and adverse monsoons. The plan is not rigid and it may be possible to make changes should you wish to visit other places. At each stage the most interesting and attractive ports of call have been sought out. As with any sailing trip, plans must be subject to appropriate weather conditions and the discretion of the skipper.
The circumnavigation has been divided into a number of legs. Initially crossing the Atlantic, through the Caribbbean and the Panama canal to the Pacific. More recently visiting Indonesia and passing up the Malacca Straits to Malaysia, Thailand, The Andaman Islands and Burma. She is available for charter, also cruises and RYA courses are planned for those who wish to sail as individuals. We specialise in creating a unique experience and or adventure tailored wherever possible to your needs. Come and join us, visiting new places and pushing out the boundaries, onboard this remarkable ocean going vessel.
However if you would like more information on where you could join Meniscus Complete the Online Enquiry Form or clickhere (email@example.com) to send Mark a message. Please send text only emails with no attachments and make your subject heading relevant ie. "Booking Meniscus".

Harlan Hubbard (January 4, 1900 - January 16, 1988) was an American artist and author who lived a simple life that Henry David Thoreau only experimented with.
Hubbard was born in Bellevue, Kentucky. His father died when Harlan was only seven. Soon thereafter, his mother moved him to New York City to be with his two older brothers who were living there at the time. (One of his brothers, Lucien Hubbard (1888-1971), became a famous Hollywood screenwriter.) Hubbard attended Childs High School in the Bronx and received his art education from New York's National Academy of Design and the Art Academy of Cincinnati. In 1919, he returned with his mother to northern Kentucky and settled in Fort Thomas, Kentucky.
As a young man, Hubbard saw the industrial development in America as a threat to the natural world and he thoroughly rejected consumer culture. In 1929 he started keeping a journal into which he poured his thoughts on society. In 1943, he married Anna Eikenhout (she died May 3, 1986). The following year they built a shantyboat at Brent, Kentucky and traveled down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, ending their journey in the Louisiana bayous in 1951. His book Shantyboat recounts the eight-year journey from Brent to New Orleans. His book Shantyboat in the Bayous, which was published in 1990, completes the story.
In 1951, Harlan and Anna built a primitive, yet elegant home at Payne Hollow on the shore of the Ohio River in Trimble County, Kentucky. It was there that the Hubbards lived lives that have been described as simultaneously frugal and abundant. To fully understand the Hubbards' lives and their rejection of modern society, Payne Hollow and Journals, 1929-1944 are essential reading. Author Wendell Berry was a close friend of Hubbard's and has written and lectured on the Hubbards' lives.
Hubbard's art is largely pastoral and he was accomplished with oils, watercolors, and woodblock printing. The Behringer-Crawford Museum in Covington, Kentucky and the Frankfort Community Public Library (Frankfort, Indiana) have significant collections of his work.
Hubbard bequeathed Payne Hollow to his friend Paul Hassfurder. Hassfurder, an artist in his own right, has made his home there since 1989.[1]

Anonymous: Hello,I just want to know if the DollFace Cosmetics in the Philippines is from US. for i want to place an order.but then i hesitate for i had heard rumors that there product is from HongKong but the owner is telling everyone that it come from U.S.(to increase their sales).
Hi! The dollface that im using is this https://www.facebook.com/dollfacecosmeticsphils. Im not sure though if they are locally made. You may contact them from their fb page to clarify. thanks! :)
I recently bought mascara from Mary Kay. Im not really a fan of mascara because I had a bad experience in using one before.But I eventually gave this one a try and I love it! Here are the reasons why…
Love it:
o Not heavy (Doesn't really feel like your wearing a mascara)
o They say you need to curl your lashes first before you put on mascara, well I dont. I already have long lashes and I just want to add volume so this one is enough, but if you're looking for twiggy style lashes then no one's stopping you :p
o It stays the whole day and doesn't run or make shadows under the eye.
o It's waterproof, but it's easy to remove with soap and water. Like i've said before, I had a really bad experience in using waterproof mascara and it's all because they're so hard to remove, There are few times when I wake up, my eyes have black spots because of the mascara residue which I thought I had removed already with eye makeup remover and cleanser. But this, I love it so much, it even softens the lashes once you washed it out. It feels really soft like I put a conditioner on my lashes!! and the curls stays up till the next day.
Hate it:
o This is quite expensive, P725
o You can only purchase it thru a Beauty Consultant

I'm not really into foundations but I want to have some on my kit. Currently, I only have 1 foundation (who needs a lot anyway?) which is my Mary Kay Timewise and 1 bb cream from etude house. From what I've searched, I think foundation evens out your skin tone. Some of us tend to have darker forehead, or if you have large pores to hide, foundation should help you make it look smooth and even.
I don't really have an idea on what makes mineral makeup better on the normal makeup. They say that mineral makeup is pure and organic, but I'm not into them. I just wanted to try this one out.
Love it:
o Reason why I don't like liquid foundation is because it tends to feel heavy and makes me feel really tired. So I am very happy with this because it feels really light, I feel like I'm not really wearing any foundation and it really looks natural.
o Another reason why I hate wearing foundation is it makes my face oily. My skin condition is normal and I usually get 3% oil on my face throughout the day. This product gave me 5% oil and I don't think it's bad (2% oil) compared to those vie tried before.
o It's worthy-cheap. (P499)
o Packaging. I love that it comes with a pump and not just tube. I am sure that no product would go to waste (a.k.a covers on tubes) cheapskate!
o Its available everywhere
o Has a lot of shades to choose from and from what I can remember; I saw 5 different shades on Maybelline's tester table.
Hate it:
o So far I have none. I think it's a good buy and I love it!
*Liquid Foundations are recommended on people who have dry to normal skin.
What I'm wearing (Natural Light, No Edits)
o Maybelline Mineral Foundation
o Maybelline Fresh Berry Blush
o In2it Cranberry Lipstick
o Faceshop Liquid Eyelinerread more
Lipstick is probably the largest on my makeup stash. I am obsessed with them! I have Revlon, Mac, Sephora, Nyx, Mary Kay, Tony Moly etc… I recently bought in2it, a local (I think) drugstore makeup brand. I feel guilty having a lot of lipsticks and I just consumed at least 1/8 of them. So I decided to buy cheap lipstick instead because I know, soon enough I would be tired of using that same color. This is my favorite lipstick as of the moment, Moist Intense In2it Lipstick in Cranberry, and I use it always.
Love it:
o Packaging. I love the swirls design at the bottom of the tube and it doesn't really look cheap. It doesn't have the transparent plastic cover that's usually the cover of cheap lipsticks.
o With the right application, the color stays unless you eat. If not, it would stain your lip. It's pigmented.
o It's cheap! (P379.75)
o I love the color in Cranberry, and they also have a wide selections of colors.
Hate it:
o So, what do I hate about this product? None. I don't have any high expectations on this brand but it certainly is not waste of money. I think all lipsticks, regardless of the brand, won't stay on your lips after you eat unless it's Revlon Colorstay (would blog about this one soon). Coz, even when I use Mac, it still fades away.
TIP: Don't be shy to try out tester, they'll be giving you tissue so you can wipe the top layer of the product so it's more hygienic to use. And also, don't be too judgmental or cynical on using drugstore makeup products. Coz, people won't even notice what product you're using when it's already on your face. It's not like it will have some flashing light displaying the brand and most of them a really good so I really encourage you to try them out.read more

No - no way are we going to have one!

Hi All,
We're looking to set up a forum for parents, which will supplement our existing real parents' forum. They'll access this through our Moodle learning platform, integrated with Drupal to manage the forums, so it'll be secure from the outside world.
Does anyone else have an online forum for parents or are you considering it?
If so, how are comments moderated - before they are published or afterwards?
Really trying to get an idea of best practice before going live with it.

text: Aldi Receives Planning/Zoning Commission Approval The development of "Gale Village" is beginning to look a bit more real after Tuesday night's Planning and Zoning Commission meeting.The Aldi chain of grocery stores is planning to relocate from their current location on West Main Street to be a part of the new development on North Seminary Street and Knox Square Drive.Aldi requested four variances to the location in the Northwest corner of the site - which is subsequently located next to the "Stisser" property.One resident spoke to the commission and suggested they vote down the variance requests to keep the current Aldi within walking distance of relatively low-income areas.Director of Community Development Roy Parkin told the commission that decision at the discretion of the developer and the commission has another focus."We need to look at the site -- does it make sense? [Do] the variances make sense?" Parkin said. "If, for some reason, the re-zoning doesn't go through, and the...plat doesn't get recorded, we won't be issuing any permits for this project until that plat gets recorded to the B-2 [zoning]. So, if it never does, the project would unfortunately not go through from that standpoint."The chain wanted to waive fencing requirements, allow parking along Seminary Street, and to reduce necessary parking landscape.Commission members requested to amend the proposal to reduce parking and increase space on the south side of the site for improved landscaping. That motion failed 4-3.The variances themselves were approved by a vote of 6-1. 04 23 13 by Newsroom News management powered by Xpression News

Someone like Charles Ramsey might take the sight of a pretty white girl running into a black man's arms as a dead giveaway that something was wrong, but not the people behind Black Tasting. After all, they're used to seeing pretty white girls wrapping their lips around big, black dicks.
The women on BlackTasting are all ebony cock lovers who can never get enough dark meat. Most of the ladies are white, but there are a few Asian babes to be seen as well. You can see who a lot of the chicks are by consulting the model index, but be aware that not all of the models are showcased there. I should also note that the index doesn't really tell you anything about the girls except for their names.
You can see the women in action by taking a look at their 57 videos. At first it looks like there are actually a few more vids than that, but a closer inspection of the movies reveals that a few of them have been posted twice for some reason. Each flick is represented by a thumbnail and you're always given names and running lengths for the films.
The videos can all be streamed in an embedded player. Many of them can be downloaded as well, though there are some that can't be saved. Those that can be come in a 3GP format and a couple of MP4 formats. You can only expect to get average-quality playback from the downloads, but the streams can be much more impressive.
There's at least one hot chick having sex with a black dude in every vid. Some of the wilder scenes have two babes teaming up to take on very lucky dude or one horny girl taking on a bunch of different guys all at once. It's hot stuff and if you enjoy interracial sex, you're sure to enjoy it just as much as the babes in the flicks.
You can see even more interracial action by working your way through the 25 crisp photo sets. The pics show hot girls sucking dark dick and getting fucked by black cocks, of course, but they also show the babes posing in various states of undress before the screwing gets started.
The website continues to update and it has added eight new videos and two fresh photo sets over the last 30 days. However, five of those vids had already been posted, so they really shouldn't count as updates. The time between updates can be used to check out video feeds and explore three bonus sites, namely Amateur Desires, Backdoor Damage and Latina Secrets.
There's definitely room for improvement, but overall, Black Tasting is a pretty decent site. If you get off on seeing black studs bang babes of different races, there's a fairly good chance that you'll enjoy what the website has to offer.

This site is complete garbage. DONT be fooled by review or site that advertises HD
I spent about 7 minutes and was able to get thru entire catalog, less than 10 pages of updates and you cant download none of the famous or hot chicks vids, the vids you can download ARE NOT HD, the format they give is DVD quality at best and we are talking like really old DVDs. Every single girl i went to that was know , you couldnt download movie..only reason this site got a 1 review is i couldnt review it as ZERO
