Two takes on pesticides
|| Print |
|Saturday, July 01, 2006
Bob Hale in THE OTHER SIDE OF PESTICIDES [FIRST PERSON, May] implies that medicine is a normal thing that people consume. However, this is an age where some people are trying to avoid taking medication whenever possible. Consuming medicated plants isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's a far cry from avoiding as many additives as possible. Each time we eat plants grown with pesticides we consume a little of their "medicine." I think that people should reflect on the added "plant medicine" that they receive from produce that is not grown organically. If we can have organic produce, it is a better choice. This is a distinction that Hale doesn't make.
Elisabeth McMillon
THE OTHER SIDE OF PESTICIDES [FIRST PERSON, May] is an excellent article. Like all of the other tools we use, pesticides simply need to be carefully managed and it sounds like Bob Hale does a conscientious job of that. It is unfortunate

Northeast rode a strong start to defeat Amber-Pocasset 74-46 in the first round of the Class 2A girls state tournament at Oklahoma City University.
Class 2A girls basketball: Northeast defeats Amber-Pocasset
Northeast got off to an 18-4 start as Amber-Pocasset hit 1 of its first 5 shots from the field. Shayla Williams scored 14 of Northeast's first 18 points.
Williams finished with 20 points to lead second-ranked Northeast (25-2).
"As a senior, she really stepped up and played," Northeast coach Londaryl Perry said of Williams. "She does it at the right time. She does the little things that don't count in the scoresheet. She hits the big shots, and she doesn't get the recognition."
Northeast had five players reach double figures in scoring. Maximina Gonzalez posted 12 points, while Lanesia Williams recorded 11 points. Jaelyn Coleman added 10 points, and T'ona Edwards contributed 10 points.
Northeast maintained a 20-point advantage throughout the second half. Northeast advanced to meet top-ranked Snyder in the semifinals at 6 p.m. at State Fair Arena.
"We performed pretty well," Perry said. "We have a young team. We have three varsity players from last year. It's going to be tough. (Snyder is) well-coached."
Jordan Garner, Amber-Pocasset's leading scorer, notched her first points on free throws with 1:58 to go in the third period. Northeast led 55-35 at that point.
Michelle Olsen led fourth-ranked Amber-Pocasset (29-2) with 15 points, while Eden Douglas added 10 points. Garner finished with seven points.

Autumn Paddling in New England
New England is famous for its unrivaled autumn foliage and American history. While people come from all over the world to drive and hike through the forests, the best way to view the scenery and serenity of fall in New England is by boat.
Strange Days: Paddling in Flood and Fire
French soothsayer Nostradamus would have had a heyday this year. After an otherwise ho-hum summer, paddlers across the country were greeted by a rash of freakish, end-of-the-times weather that, in many cases, made survival a higher priority than paddling. But paddlers will be paddlers, and a few got after it anyway.
Park Service to Boaters: Come Back Later
Well, they still might be sitting on a lot of food and PBRs, but Grand Canyon permit holders stymied by the government shutdown will get to float the river at some point, and get a little gas money for the shuttle home.
Kayak in Central America's Secret Gem
Nicaragua is the secret gem of Central America's kayaking destinations. Paddler and contributor Jeff Kinney shares his experiences and top reasons you should make this on your paddling priority list before others find out.
What I Learned in B.C.
BC is of the most beautiful and most challenging whitewater destinations in the world. Paddler and C&K contributor Eric Adsit offers advice from his kayaking experience to help others make good judgment calls without the portages.
Kayaking Detroit, Michigan
With soaring unemployment and an economy Milton Friedman could only shake his head at, visiting Detroit isn't on many people's bucket list these days. But if you're into non-motorized boating, you may want to give Motor City a second look.
Salton Sea, Southern California
Don't let the high salt content and a few dead Tilapia littering the briny mudflats of the Salton Sea sway your decision to paddle California's largest lake.
Cache La Bayou, Arkansas
The best thing about searching for a formerly extinct bird is that it can force you out of your comfort zone. Take Bayou DeView, for example, within the Cache River National Wildlife Refuge in east-central Arkansas.
Some Unlikely Paddling Destinations
Sometimes the best paddling happens when you least expect it. On the following pages, you'll find six other mistakenly overlooked spots to discover for yourself.
Gowanus Canal, Brooklyn N.Y.
Each time he crossed the Gowanus Canal, Frank Minna, the small-time wise guy in the novel Motherless Brooklyn, quipped that it's "the only body of water in the world that is 90 percent guns."
Cuyahoga River, Ohio
The waterway was so full of industrial waste that its surface burned no fewer than 13 times, including the devastating 1969 blaze that helped spark large-scale environmental policy initiatives. These days, it's a great place for a paddle.
The Hanford Reach, Washington
Folks at the Hanford Site spend most of their time cleaning up the mess left by the nine Cold War reactors and five plutonium enrichment plants along this scenic 51-mile stretch of the Columbia River in Southeastern Washington.
5 Reasons to Paddle Palau
From swimming among golden jellyfish to kayaking over sharks in crystal clear waters, Palau has everything an adventurous traveler could want in a vacation.
The Voyageur's Highway
Paddle Ontario's French River, a 65-mile stretch designated as a CAnadian Heritage River and wild almost all the way through.
Redux Paddle Routes
Paddle in the wake of explorers, fur traders and wilderness visionaries on waterways that have only improved with the passage of time
The River of No Return
Whitewater paddlers ought to thank the late U.S. Senator Frank Church, the father of the 1968 Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, for legislation to preserve free-flowing rivers. Closest to Church's heart was Idaho's Salmon River.
On the Trail of Lewis and Clark
On the Trail of Lewis and Clark Central Montana's Upper Missouri River proved to be one of the most challenging and inspiring parts of the Corps of Discovery's 1804-1806 expedition across America. Lewis and Clark's 33-person team had it tough on the Upper Missouri, hauling six dugout canoes and two behemoth 35-foot pirogues upstream to […]

Q: When it comes to hockey hair, we've seen the mullets, Mohawks, and everything in between. How did you get your unique dreadlock look? Answer from Anson Carter: When I was in Boston, Joe Thornton and Jason Allison bet me $1,000 that I wouldn't grow an afro. They didn't think I would do it because I always shaved my head bald in honor of Michael Jordan. So I did it. In fact, those guys still haven't paid me [laughs].continued

Female editor for 'Sunday Telegraph' after Lawson quits
Wednesday 15 June 2005
The editor of
The Sunday Telegraph, Dominic Lawson, stepped down yesterday after a decade at the helm of the paper, to be replaced by its first woman editor.
The editor of The Sunday Telegraph, Dominic Lawson, stepped down yesterday after a decade at the helm of the paper, to be replaced by its first woman editor.
Mr Lawson's future was thought to be secure last summer when the Barclay brothers took over the Telegraph Group from Hollinger International. There was even speculation that he might graduate to the editorship of the group's flagship, The Daily Telegraph.
But after 10 years as editor in which he established a reputation for scoops but failed to boost sales, Mr Lawson was called into the office of the Telegraph Group chief executive, Murdoch MacLennan, yesterday to learn his fate. At the same time his successor, Sarah Sands, deputy editor of the daily paper, called a meeting of Sunday Telegraph staff, many of whom were out having lunch with contacts on what is the quietest day of the week for a Sunday newspaper.
Ms Sands introduced herself to those gathered as their new editor and told them her intention was to bring a "wider range" of stories to the newspaper. Many interpreted this as a shift away from Mr Lawson's heavily political agenda to the lighter touch that Ms Sands has employed as editor of the Saturday edition of The Daily Telegraph.
The former editor of the Evening Standard's "Londoner's Diary" column said: "There are a lot of good journalists at the Sunday Telegraph and I am looking forward to the challenge."
The Hon. Dominic Ralph Campden Lawson, whose father is the former Tory chancellor Nigel Lawson, and whose sister is the television cook Nigella Lawson, became editor of The Sunday Telegraph in 1995.
He had been touted as a possible successor to the daily's editor, Martin Newland, as had Ms Sands, and yesterday's events will be a surprise to many in the newspaper world. Just 18 months ago the Telegraph Group proprietor David Barclay described Mr Lawson as "a very good editor of The Sunday Telegraph".
Mr MacLennan said yesterday: "We would like to thank Dominic for his 10-year contribution to The Sunday Telegraph during which he has made the newspaper the leading Sunday news agenda-setter. We also appreciate his achievements as editor of The Spectator. We wish him well with his future plans." He added: "Sarah will be responsible for reviewing the style and content of The Sunday Telegraph and its supplements. Alongside Martin Newland, she has done a first-class job on the daily, boosting the sales of the Saturday edition. I have no doubt she will bring a new and different approach to the Sunday market."
Mr Lawson attended Westminster School and Christ Church, Oxford, before joining the BBC as a researcher. He has written for the Financial Times and was editor of The Spectator from 1987 to 1990.
Boris Johnson, current editor of The Spectator, said of Mr Lawson: "He was an entirely brilliant editor when I was political columnist. He's one of the best editors of copy, if not the best, I have ever met."
At The Spectator, Mr Lawson prompted the resignation of the Tory minister Nicholas Ridley, who expressed his frank views about Germans in an interview with the magazine.
At The Sunday Telegraph, Mr Lawson put noses out of joint when he published a story that Baroness Thatcher was backing Michael Portillo against Iain Duncan Smith for the leadership of the party. More recently, it was the main outlet for stories from the camp of The Spectator's publisher, Kimberly Quinn, during the revelations of her affair with David Blunkett.
Morale dipped at the Telegraph Group earlier this year when 90 journalists lost their jobs as part of 300 redundancies to help pay for £150m new presses.
Woman who wants to challenge the 'sullen misogyny in Britain'
As the first female editor in The Sunday Telegraph's history, it is perhaps fitting that Sarah Sands is the same age as the newspaper, 44.
The boarding school- educated journalist, who moved to The Daily Telegraph from the London Evening Standard in 1996, is also, unsurprisingly, a Tory, revealing how she voted in the election.
Her promotion is not entirely unexpected as, since moving to The Telegraph to be deputy editor, she has been given increasing responsibility. Ms Sands began her career as a reporter on the Kent and Sussex Courier, aged 25.
She spent three years there before moving to the Standard, and went on to edit Londoner's Diary before rising to be an associate editor.
She is thought to be an admirer of the Daily Mail, but her approval is not unswerving. She once said: "There is a sullen misogyny towards women who do not know their place in British society, and the Daily Mail is its mouthpiece."
When she moved to The Telegraph, she admitted she was not "traditional Telegraph material" and has been described by colleagues as "right wing, but sort of social right-wing".
Ms Sands, who is thought to have had her eye on the job of editor at The Sunday Telegraph for some time, is married to the paper's editorial director, Kim Fletcher.
She is divorced from the actor Julian Sands, and has three children.

Poems - Twelve lashes from old Rinzai's tongue
I will, however, have to read about bodhisattiva, because it is something I am not too familiar with. To be honest, my knowledge of "Rinzai" is very limited, but I will be doing more research to find out what it really is outside of the transcendental aspect.
I noticed the subtle, but noticeable changes on your page, Harry, by the way. I was wondering more about Zen; I was wondering if you would write a poem, and...tada!
I have never used koans as I was of the Soto school in those days...now I have taken to the Rinzai practice and the use of koans...I love it.
Many thanks Sammi.
If I became "transcendentally enlightened" by a paradox, I'd be hellishly satisfied with non-answers.
Cheers Sammi...Harry
I think a paradox is perception, and not a way to "gain attention."
Does this mean, if we think too much or have doubts, we obstruct our own vision? To swim smoothly in the river of life.
thought provoking...indeed!!
warm wishes,
Many many thanks Deepali.
Thank you my friend.
but what do you do after your enlightened? i just sort of retreated in to nature and the natural world......however that sort of thing doesn't go down very well with the council when they want their money ha ha.

Historical Traveler Reviews Scuba Club Cozumel
Food poisoning
We booked a one week trip for 7 people to Scuba Club Cozumel in June 2003. Rooms were kept clean, most food seemed okay. But on our 4th day, 5 of us got food poisoning and couldn't dive for minimum 1 day. The 2 who went diving noted 75% of the regular divers were missing from the boat. The Club refused to allow us to apply credit for missed diving to later days. They suddenly didn't speak English too well when we complained. Definitely wouldn't return.
Love Scuba Club Cozumel
My boyfriend & I really like SCC after diving with them from 2/22-2/28.
I did not book the all inclusive package because I have never been to Cozumel before so I was worried about being ripped off. I was determined to check the place out first before paying for the all inclusive. Oh my gosh, I was totally wrong. The real thing is even better than the photos on the website. My boyfriend was so disappointed that we did not book with them. He was mad at me because I was the one who refused to book it. I have been to other nice resorts before but this place have it all together. It's truly "built by diver for divers". The place is so beautiful, cozy, and clean. All the little simple thing I want is within my reach after diving (except for a hot spa:-). The staff members are all great (from the security guard to the waiter to the dive masters). They make us feel like we are their friends and never tried to over charge us. Any thing/service they could provide for free, they did eventhough we are only their "dive guest".
After diving with them for 1 day, we refused to go anywhere else.
Eventhough we had to take a taxi there every day from my BB, we did not mind because we wanted to see our new found friends again. The night before we fly back we even went back to give them tip money and to say good bye. I remember turning around and saw the most incredible sunset with a sailboat passing by. I knew then that we will be coming back to SCC on my next vacation. It's not just us but every day, we see people leaving coming out to say goodbye to the staffs and other divers. We felt like we were among friends. We can't wait to go back. All other divers we talked to said the same thing. Keep up the good work you guys and we miss you already!
Can't wait to return!!
Having never traveled to Mexico and reading some of the reviews on this site I was very nervious about choosing a hotel site unseen. So glad we chose the Scuba Club. The only slightest complaint was that the weather rained for several days ,bad enough for one that the dive boat didn't even go out :-(,,but turned around to make the trip worthwhile.
Definately not a "5 star" hotel in the states but a great place.
Spotlesley clean,,flowers on the bed and bathroom vanity when we arrived. rooms are large sparceley furnished,,but ample and being all tile great for wet divers . Large bathroom, shower.Even had dexcenttowels with no funny odors either. No musty odors kin the rom.Beautiful ocean view, spacious balcony.We expected the no TV and no telephones.Everyone went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The food plan did become a little boring,,but always 2 specials to choose from for lunch and dinner.If you do not like something on the menu they do their best to accomodate you. The on site dive operation was excellent and dive profile was always on target. Enjoyed the company of the other divers. Being that you stayed and dove and ate with these people was a delight.Met many other divers from across the country.Another plus is that there are no time share people on these premises. The tipping at the end of the stay policy caught us a little off guard so be sure to read the infomation package you get upon checking in. The scuba diving /snorkeling offshore provides some colorful marine life and was very restful on a calm day. Close enough to town for a 20 minute stroll. Like it is advertised,,a dive hotel by divers for divers. I will definately be returning to stay there.
Scuba Club on top again!!!
I didn't think we could have more fun after our first SCC trip in 2003 but 2004 was tops!! We've been in many resorts and Scuba Club has to be the best. The weather was perfect this year and so was the diving. We hit Palancar 3 times (one of the most famous reef systems in the world) much to our delite. The divemaster made sure that we all had excellent dives and the boat crew really helped those who had difficulties getting in and out. The food was even better this year and we found no reason to "eat out". You just can't beat the value! Thanks everyone and a special thanks to Sofia for being such a wonderful hostess. Chip and Michelle Homer
First Time Visitors
We stayed at Scuba Club for a week over New Year's 2004. This was our first trip to Mexico, and we had heard many varying reports of accomodations and diving, so we wanted to find out for ourselves. We found that Scuba Club was a perfect choice for us. The hotel is comfortable and clean, and the staff are very courteous and helpful.
The all-inclusive package was a great value. We liked staying where many of the folks we were diving with were staying, and we met some super folks from across the U.S. while there. Dive Cozumel runs a good operation. Their staff was also very helpful and professional. We did find two drawbacks: (1) the rooms are a bit spartan at Scuba Club, but then you can make a mess with your wet dive gear and not worry about doing any damage, and (2) things were a bit crowded at a couple of the dive sites during the week. Other than those two things, we'd rate the week highly. We definitely have Scuba Club on our "Need to do again" list.
Eric Britten, Anchorage, Alaska
Small, quiet, authentic, excellent diving
I have been returning here perhaps 30 times over the past 30 years. I love primarily the superior diving, competent guides, the small, quiet, efficeint,authentic hotel, dining rooms, shops, staff. I have stayed at larger, glitzier, Americanized hotels, but found the atmosphere less tranquil and less Mexican, and the diving not nearly as good. Scuba Club Cozumel has a fleet of 5 large luxury boats- to the 100-foot range with multiple levels, fast and efficient. (Many of the large hotels do not have an on-site dive facility, and use small outboard-type rented boats). This is a plaace for dedicated or hard-core divers, not the average tourist. I have dived over the world, and I do consider it world class. If one makes all the dives and also dives off the beach, the quiet pool or a book at an oceanside hammock is a tranquil use of leisure time. I did not miss TV- there is one in the restaurant-bar for football season or the news. No phone in room, but local and long-distance phone in lobby. My beverage bill is usually $10 per week- bottled water with lime and salt. If one felt the need for tequila, there is a little shop down the street where a bottle of good tequila is incredibly cheap. I have always considered this a place of magnificent diving and unparalled peacefullness. The Mexican-Yucatecan food-with lots of fresh fruits and wonderful vegetables, I find excellent also. I almost regret recommending it; it is perfect the way it is.
I stayed at Scuba Club with a small group during the second week of December, 2002. The staff is friendly and extremely helpful. The rooms are spartan but mine was large with a nice balcony. The food was average and the price does not include drinks or tips, which if you follow the guidelines given to you by the hotel, will run around U.S. $150.00 for the week. I visited Cozumel the following January and stayed at another resort and used another dive operation. We went to the same sites but the dive masters at the second shop took us to better parts of the site plus during the surface interval the the second shop shop docked at southern beaches. I stayed for eight nights and my friend stayed for seven. I was charged for two nights at the single occupancy rate and nothing I could say would convince them this made no sense. I can't figure out why Scuba Club is rated one of the top dive resorts in the wrold. I will not return to Scuba Club.
Very Comfortable and Friendly and Cozy
I have stayed at the Galapago Inn twice for 7 days each time.
The employees and dive masters are very friendly and if you chose to inchlude meals with your room price you share dinner with your dive companions and can discuss the days dives. This makes the atmosphere much more friendly as you get to know everyone a little bit and not feel like you are among strangers after divning and dinning together. Rates have gone up though since I was last there.
Of course this is a place for divers and the diving is fantastic.
Excellent Dive Hotel/Dive Center
This was my first trip to Cozumel and I was very impressed with the service not only at the hotel, but the dive operation as well. The staff for both functions were extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating. The dive sites selected for our group were varied and always interesting. The variety of sealife and the healt of the reefs was phenomenal. The resort made our group of 15 adults and children feel at home. The fact that there are no phones and no tv sets in the rooms was a plus for my wife and I, but it did raise eyebrows with the folks who had kids (electronic babysitters are important these days). I will be surely be going back to this wonderful spot as soon as my vacation fund is replenished.
Best Dive Destination
I've been to the Scuba Club Cozumel twice now in the last two years and their the best. If you want to be treated like family, this is the place. The food is excellent,staff friendly,and the diving is some of the best in the world.I would recommend them to not only beginners but also to long time divers too.

Saenger Theatre to launch new VIP seating upon fall reopening
Updated On: Mar 26 2013 12:04:30 PM CDT
The Saenger Theatre will offer new VIP sitting to patrons when the historic landmark reopens in the fall.
The new Saenger Club Seats will be located in the first two rows of the balcony directly behind the Grand Suites. Club Seat holders will have access to the new VIP Lounge, featuring separate restroom facilities, a full-service bar, comfortable lounging areas and concierge services.
Season Club Seats are available for $2,995 with valet parking optional.
The theatre will also provide its Grand Suites once again, offering box seating located in front of the balcony. Grand Suite patrons will have access to a personal Suite Concierge, cocktail service at their seats, access to the new Saenger VIP Lounge and complimentary valet parking.
The Saenger Theatre was built in 1927 but was damaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and has been closed ever since. However, a $52 million joint venture among ACE Theatrical Group, the City of New Orleans and the Canal Street Development Corporation is scheduled for completion this fall.
"The Saenger Theatre holds a special place in the hearts of our patrons, and we want to ensure their experience in the newly re-opened Saenger is even better than they remember. We have been working tirelessly to deliver the premier experience for theatregoers, music lovers and patrons of the arts," said David Skinner, general manager, ACE Theatrical Group. "Whether our patrons choose our Saenger Grand Suites or Saenger Club Seats, they will be sure to experience the grandeur and luxury that the newly restored Saenger Theatre will offer."

Ceremony welcomes reverend to University of Cumbria
Published at 14:22, Friday, 17 January 2014
A special ceremony will take place today to welcome the University of Cumbria's new chaplaincy co-ordinator.
A licensing ceremony will be conducted by the Bishop of Blackburn, the Right Rev Julian Henderson, to welcome the Rev Alexandra Logan.
She originally trained as a youth and community worker at St Martin's College in Lancaster, which is now the university's Bowerham Road campus and is where she is based.
Ms Logan said: "I am delighted to be returning to the university where I was a student for a year, and to the Diocese of Blackburn where I was a curate. For me this is a real homecoming."
Ms Logan will oversee chaplaincy work across all university sites including Carlisle but she will have particular responsibility for the Lancaster campus.
She will work closely with the Rev Matthew Firth, chaplain to the Carlisle campuses, as well as the university's honorary chaplains and lay workers.
Ms Logan has been in ordained ministry for 11 years and trained in Cambridge.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House said on Monday it was concerned about a recent report that Iran and Russia are negotiating an oil-for-goods swap worth $1.5 billion a month, a deal a spokeswoman said could trigger U.S. sanctions.
Such a deal would significantly boost Iran's oil exports, which have been slashed by more than half to about 1 million barrels a day by U.S. and European economic sanctions aimed at forcing Iran to accept curbs to its nuclear program.
Russian and Iranian sources close to the barter negotiations said the deal could see Russia buy as much as 500,000 barrels a day of Iranian oil in exchange for Russian equipment and goods.
"We are concerned about these reports and Secretary (of State John) Kerry directly expressed this concern with (Russian) Foreign Minister (Sergei) Lavrov today," Caitlin Hayden, spokeswoman for the White House National Security Council, told Reuters.
Iran agreed on Sunday to limit its enrichment of uranium and allow more international monitoring for six months in exchange for about $7 billion in sanctions relief.
The agreement with the P5+1 group of major world powers includes a pause on efforts to further reduce Iran's exports of crude oil - although it does not allow major buyers to increase their imports.
Russia is part of the P5+1 group, but has not been part of the sanctions efforts, led by the United States and Europe.
"If the reports are true, such a deal would raise serious concerns as it would be inconsistent with the terms of the P5+1 agreement with Iran and could potentially trigger U.S. sanctions," Hayden said.
Iran and the P5+1 group will likely begin talks on a long-term nuclear deal in February - talks that both Iran and the United States have said will be difficult.

The autumn dark is lengthening, which means the English-speaking, Judeo-Christian Holiday Season is about to split open wider than a crocodile mouth at the bottom of a baby duckling water slide. It begins with Columbus Day. No mail and the banks are closed. Much is to be said for starting slow. Then the downward hurtle is set off by Halloween, when people toss about candy, free, incognito.
Most Americans, regardless of ideology, oppose "crony capitalism" or "cronyism." Cronyism is where politicians write laws aimed at helping their favored business beneficiaries. Despite public opposition to cronyism, politicians still seek to use the legislative process to help special interests.

/ Ice climbing in Peru
Anyone can recommend some good trusted companies, and climbs to go for? Looking at 4 to 6 days max duration, difficulty intermediate (Grade II/III Scottish)
Many thanks
If you can't climb trek the scenery is superb and flora and fauna amazing
Thanks Alasdair,
Planning some hiking around Cuzco and around the ausangate in the first two weeks, would be good to do some technical climbs in the last week
With that itinerary best to stay around Ausangate area. There are some short steep routes on the Pachanta group, north of the Campa pass, but I don't know what they'd be like in Sept as that is normally too late for this area (and most of Peru). It's and El Nino year there though, so you never know. South face of Jatunhuma also has some steep ice sometimes.
I climbed Ausangate normal route a few years ago and did the circuit plus another separate high trek further east. It's a great area.
For mules I used Cayetano Crispin in Tinqui, who was very good and excellent value. You need to speak some Spanish though, and probably go through his son.
I was in the Corderilla Blanca two weeks ago and conditions were very dry. El Nino seems to be having an effect.
I can put you in touch with a good mountain guide in Huaraz if you are going to head up that way. Otherwise if you head to the Cordillera Vilcanota Cayetano is good (but he's just a mule organiser, not a guide).

GOOD Maker Finalist: Swings Tampa Bay Puts a Whimsical Spin on Community Building
All it takes is a rope swing—and a few curious passersby—to turn a patch of shade under a giant tree into a playground. In Tampa Bay, Florida, there are more than 100 handmade swings scattered across the city and its surrounding communities thanks to Reuben Pressman and Hunter Payne of Swings Tampa Bay, an organization known locally for its experiments in urban recreation and "spontaneous community building." If you're lucky enough to spot one of their calling cards, don't be too shy to stop and play. We think Swings Tampa Bay, a top-three finisher in the Brookside Foods Giving Back Challenge on GOOD Maker, is onto something.
Pressman and Payne created their first swing as an environmental design project at the University of South Florida at St. Petersburg. "We wanted to get the attention of classmates walking along the pathway to our classroom," the pair says. "Our goal was to challenge their perception of a familiar environment and encourage them to engage with each other and enjoy the present moment." They've preserved this spirit of community in each of their installations, which locals can find everywhere from pedestrian overpasses to the inside of the Roosevelt 2.0 gallery in Tampa.
Swings Tampa Bay also enlists the creative talents of the community for their "Let's Paint Swings!" parties, which brings new and old friends together to design masterpieces of their own. Today over 1,000 swings have received a fresh coat of paint and been made ready for the open air. And next month, Tampa residents will be treated to a studio show featuring 75 swings, plus a custom-made swing set, personalized by resident artists at the Creative Clay Cultural Arts Center.
What's the next experiment for Swings Tampa Bay? While the paradox of "spontaneous planning" is not lost on Pressman and Payne, they say locals can keep their eyes out for another installation built for two: a see-saw. They can also expect to find buckets of sidewalk chalk around St. Petersburg for a project inspired by pavement poets like Peter Kageyama. Residents will be invited to doodle a message to the city or leave behind something original, uplifting and unexpected for others to read. "Tampa Bay will grow stronger as a community as we encourage each other to spontaneously step out of our daily routine," Payne says.
