Last week, I enjoyed two completely different dinners out in the French capital's 11th arrondissement. The contrasting experiences in the so-called "Brooklyn of Paris" reminded me why right now is a wonderful time to be in the city that casts a magical spell, whether it's your first or fifteenth visit.
Truth is stranger than fiction. Here are eight travel factoids to help prove it.
Nat Geo Travel's Annie Fitzsimmons spends a large part of her life scouting out the sites, restaurants, and people that reveal the distinctive soul of cities large and small. But even Urban Insiders need a break from the hustle and bustle once in a while. So after attending the Adventure Travel World Summit in Killarney, she couldn't resist…
Zubair Khawar is a textile designer, but his true passion is travel photography. Born and raised in Lahore, he has recently started exploring his hometown through the eyes of a visitor—the true mark of any travel photographer worth his snuff—wandering the city's markets, observing the crowds, and sharing the color and bustle of daily life through images. Here's a look at the Punjab provincial capital through Zubair's lens.
Yellowstone became the world's first national park in 1872, leading the British diplomat James Bryce to declare national parks "the best idea America ever had." Indeed, it was, and is. But celebrations and plaudits aside, look at what we have done to our national treasures. As we prepare to celebrate the National Park Service centennial in 2016, here's a birthday wish for the future.
In Brisbane's pedestrian-friendly urban center, the cackle of a kookaburra is more common than a car horn. But don't let the subtropical city's laid-back impression fool you.
Wiener schnitzel—an unassuming breaded, fried veal cutlet—has so captured Vienna's taste buds that it bears the city's very name (Wien = Vienna). Yet Austria's national dish may actually have originated in northern Italy as costoletta alla Milanese, a similarly prepared slice of veal.
In the 1970s, Ethiopian musician Mulatu Astatke made waves when he introduced a new style of music that layered jazz improvisation with Ethiopian folk rhythms and its traditional five-note scale. Now 70, the father of Ethio-jazz is still mixing things up.
Artist and graphic design activist Shepard Fairey gets his best inspiration from Hong Kong's mix of Chinese and Western signage, iconography, and architecture. We asked him to point out other cities that go the extra mile to support their urban arts communities. Here are three.
Seattle local Adina Marguerite Pease is a creative type who lives to wander. While she'll always be a California girl at heart, she moved to the Emerald City seeking greener pastures, and found them. When she's not exploring the Pacific Northwest, Adina sets out on road trip adventures around the world with her husband and their Vizsla pup, Parsley. Here are a few of her favorite things about the city she calls home.
A hundred years have passed since the outbreak of World War I, a milestone vividly felt in the western Belgian town of Ypres, which endured some of the conflict's fiercest fighting. On Armistice Day (November 11), thousands will crowd the streets, monuments, and cemeteries of this textile town turned shrine to the fallen.
When Cerro Negro—Nicaragua's youngest volcano—last erupted in 1999, boulders tumbled down the western slope, creating a rocky, ascendable path. On the opposite side, the wind deposited dark, smooth ash that is perfect for sliding. In 2004, this unique pairing of terrains sparked an outlandish idea: volcano boarding.
This year marks a quarter century since the fall of the Berlin Wall, and Berlin continues to boom amid the reminders of its extraordinary past—a complex, sometimes dark, history it is intent on neither forgetting nor denying.
Everyone's heard tales of parents who blend pureed veggies into their kids' cookies. I leave the cauliflower alone, but I love the vacation equivalent: sneaking a culture fix into an otherwise child-focused trip. While not every museum is suited for families, here are a few favorites, old and new, that add an easy educational upgrade to some of this winter's most popular destinations.
During the Cold War, the Berlin Wall came to represent Germany's divided nation and capital. Though mostly dismantled now, it remains a potent presence, marked by sites that hark back to a sinister time in the city's history. Here's a primer on where to go and what to read to pay homage to this bygone era.
Vilnius native Kamilė Naraitė attributes her effusive hometown pride to her mother, who exposed her to the most beautiful and historic spots in Lithuania's capital city. And though Kamilė loves traveling around the world, she makes a point to share her insider intel on the best things to see and do in Vilnius on Spotted by Locals. Here's a taste of what she thinks will make fellow travelers "fall in love with this green, natural, and unique city" she calls home.
Portland may be best known for its beer, bicycling locals, and street food, but—as unlikely as it sounds—many of the city's seemingly "grown-up" attractions can be geared towards kids with just a little tweaking. Here's the rundown on how to give hipster Portland a family-friendly spin.
Long among the must-visit destinations of Europe, Prague continues to evolve in surprising and alluring ways. Here are a few trends and tips to help you uncover the freshest ways to experience this fairy-tale Czech city.
I'm in Killer Poboys to meet with Charles Chamberlain, a Ph.D. in American history and local History Man. Ten years a historian at the Louisiana State Museum before setting up his own company, Historia, to provide outsiders with insights into the Pelican State, Chamberlain knows Louisiana. He's just the guy, I figure, to explain why Louisiana is so different, even a…
The occasional brush with the occult or the unexplained isn't enough to keep intrepid travelers at bay, and our Nat Geo Travel fans on Facebook were eager to share their most memorable paranormal experiences. Here are some of their picks for the world's spookiest destinations.
Love exploring new cities around the world? Join @NatGeoTravel's Urban Insider and Orbitz travel editor Sarah Gorenstein for a live Twitter chat on Wednesday, November 5.
These ten notoriously frightful cities, near and far, are beset with ghastly, ghostly close encounters.
Not just the province of the dead and those who mourn them, cemeteries can be celebrated for all they offer the living. Europe boasts some of the most interesting and elaborate cemeteries in the world. Here are five of the most striking, all of which happen to be located in capital cities.
Researcher and artist Mimi Onuoha was living in Brooklyn…right before she found out she had been selected as one of five Fulbright-Nat Geo digital storytelling fellows. She's since hopped the pond to London to explore how technology and culture influence and affect each other, but she'll never get Brooklyn out of her soul. As she says, "you can't help but find endearing a city that will offer you everything but only kind of heart you back." Here are some of Mimi's favorite things about NYC's most populous borough.
To many outsiders, the icons, costumes, and rituals associated with Mexico's Day of the Dead festivities—held around All Saints and All Souls Days (November 1 and 2, respectively) in Oaxaca and other cities—seem macabre and ghoulish. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Green bathrooms are nothing new, but basins, bathtubs and showers crafted from green glass are something we don't often see. This high end bathroom design by Flavius is certainly one of a kind.
The green bath sits in the middle of a circular patch of astro turf, with a classic faucet and standpipe. The curved design runs throughout the bathroom with the green transparent glass. The shower has similar features, a walk-in model with modern grey tiling.
The basin sits on a wall-mounted glass plate with a basin mixer. The rest of the room is brought to life with a minimalist storage unit and large wall painting incorporating the same shades of limes.

I personally don't mind the downtime, it can be down all day, I have other things I can be doing, but I just don't see the reasoning in not letting people know they're doing larger maintenance behind the seems, else they build a stigma of, well, laziness.
Every other mmo I've played does this (the last I know).
There could be any number of reasons it's down for four hours, but Cryptic isn't under any obligation to tell us why.
They could be attempting to fix an exploit, transferring the data to a new server, the data centre could be undergoing their maintenance and shutting off all servers for 4 hours, upgrading the database, pre-patching for the anniversary event, hardware maintenance, OS upgrade or even just ensuring the patch gets installed without a hitch.
The EULA does state clearly that they can take the servers down with no warning and keep them down as long as they like, we're getting notice that they're taking them down for an extended maintenance and that's more than they're obliged to do by the EULA.

By: Susan Montoya Bryan, The Associated Press
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - Federal wildlife officials are setting aside nearly 1,200 square miles in the American Southwest as critical habitat for the jaguar.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced its decision Tuesday. The area includes parts of Pima, Santa Cruz and Cochise counties in Arizona and Hidalgo County in New Mexico.
There hasn't been a jaguar sighting in New Mexico in eight years, and federal biologists are aware of only one male jaguar that frequents southern Arizona.
Still, the agency says setting aside land in the Southwest will contribute to the cat's recovery across its entire range, which stretches into South America.
Environmental groups filed a series of lawsuits seeking to protect the jaguar, but critics argue that critical habitat in the U.S. isn't essential to the cat's survival.
Jaguars were placed on the federal endangered species list in 1997.

Getting Ready for a New School Year
Posted: Tuesday, August 5th, 2014
by Nikki Bailey
Renewal, self-reflection, collaboration and willingness to change are some of the keys to my professional growth. Each year, I have a process to get myself ready for the first days of school. My current strategies are outlined below. I say current, as they seem to evolve each year as my content and coworkers change.
The first step to getting ready for the school year is to renew. Taking personal time, enjoying time with family and friends, doing the things in my house that have been ignored during the busy school year, and relaxing are some ways to renew. Without this renewal, when starting to gear up for the new year, it is possible that stress and fatigue set in earlier.
Second, I go through my first unit and plan out what it is I want to accomplish in my classroom during the first month of school, reflecting on what worked last year, and what didn't.
- Did the lessons hit enough learning styles?
- Was there enough variety in my teaching, or was the delivery repetitive?
- Did the students get enough initial feedback so they could learn how my class is structured?
- How was my classroom management?
- Where there enough routines established so that the students knew what to expect?
- How was my time management?
Honest reflection is the key to this process. Being able to honestly critique yourself is a skill that takes time to develop, and can be difficult, but this was the starting point for my growth as an educator.
Although I use a file cabinet for keeping the extra handouts, it is not a user-friendly way to evaluate a unit of work as a whole. For that reason, I have created a binder for each unit that shows the daily calendar, the student handouts, activities, and tests. Each time a lesson is completed, I reflect on what worked and what didn't and make a list of things to change and things to keep the same. These binders are my starting place for reflection. My advice is to create a portable system where you can look at your lessons and reflect easily.
As the school year starts and the whirlwind continues, I try to remember to take time for reflection at least once per unit. Remembering which activities were good and which were not as good is easy, but I don't remember what specifics needed changing unless they get written down. This reflection gets written on a Post-it® and stuck directly on the student handout in the binder. In all honesty, this is the most important step in my preparation and when I don't follow through, it makes it that much harder to improve the lesson.
Third, I set up at least one summer meeting with the people I work closely with. We discuss our individual plans for changes and come together to agree on a new way to proceed for the new year. We also take time to discuss what we did over the summer and to renew our bonds. Though not often talked about, this is just as important as discussing teaching strategies. We need to feel connected to and comfortable with our colleagues in order to feel comfortable discussing our successes and failures, of which there may be many! This year, we are working on making chemistry more conceptual and open-ended, with the hope of teaching our students to be able to problem solve more independently. We have included several lessons that we feel will help the students, but we won't know until our students give us feedback.
Once the new school year gets underway, we each implement the new strategies we talked about over the summer and then discuss the outcomes, both positive and negative. There have been times when the activities fail miserably in my classroom, but worked like a charm in my neighbor's room. We talk to each other constantly to make sure that growth is happening, and we are honest in our assessments. This year, we will discuss the students' growth in their thinking, and adapt lessons as needed to help in this process.
Finally, I am always willing to change, as change is growth. There are times that I bore myself, so it follows that my students are bored. This is when it is important to take time and find new ways to integrate technology, games, hands-on activities, and group work. I talk to co-workers in different grade levels or subjects to see what strategies they use, look online for different ideas, and, when possible, go to conferences. Talking to a teacher from any grade level and any subject is helpful, as any activity can be adapted for any grade level or content.
Classroom success is directly related to the time taken for renewal, reflection, and collaboration with peers. Renewal allows you to remember there is life outside of your classroom, reflection is the step that allows your lessons to improve, and collaboration gives you the support to try new ideas. If I miss one of these steps, inevitably the school year is harder than it needs to be.

NGSS Implementation Update: State Implementation Plan, New Assessments, LCAPs, and Curriculum Framework
Posted: Tuesday, November 4th, 2014
by Jessica L. Sawko
There are a lot of moving parts when it comes to implementing new state standards and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are no exception. Two weeks ago the California Department of Education (CDE) and State Board of Education (SBE) responded to CSTA's call to provide clarification regarding the standards that are to be included in a district's LCAP when addressing State Priority #2. Today and tomorrow the CFCC will convene again with the writers of the NGSS Curriculum Framework to provide feedback to the writers on draft framework chapters and CSTA will be at the meetings to provide input into process. Later this week the SBE will interview candidates for appointment to the Instructional Quality Commission (IQC) – the body that will pick up the work to finish the NGSS Curriculum Framework after the CFCC completes its work. Finally, next week the SBE will convene its November meeting on November 13 – 14, 2014. On the agenda for this meeting is a recommendation from CDE that the State Board approve the State Implementation Plan for NGSS – a plan which will lay the groundwork for implementation activities at the state and local level as well as for support providers like CSTA and others. Also on the agenda is a report from CDE's assessment division with the results of the stakeholder group meetings that were held in July 2014 to inform the planning of the future statewide assessment system for science. Finally the SBE will appoint new members to the IQC. Learn More…

Focus on Physical Science
Posted: Tuesday, November 4th, 2014
by Laura Henriques
As a former physics/physical science teacher, the California Classroom Science (CCS) issue focusing on physical science is always one of my favorites. I enjoy reading about lessons, labs and teaching ideas that my colleagues share in each month's CCS, but I really enjoy reading physics and physical science lesson ideas as those apply most directly to what I teach. As with past issues of CCS, we have some great articles written by a wide variety of members on a range of topics. Sadly (for me), only a couple of them focus on physical science.
One of the physical science highlights is Padma Haldar's article that has students doing 'mythbuster' activities to help them better understand the Nature of Science. This project requires students to engage in many of the science and engineering practices (they ask questions, plan and carry out investigations, analyze and interpret data, and evaluate and communicate information) and Ms. Haldar seems to be explicit in helping students understand the nature of science throughout the process. Another article in this month's issue is Valerie Joyner's where she shares a primary activity which focuses on the crosscutting concept of patterns. Her lesson links patterns with properties of plastic lids. As is the case with crosscutting concepts, she shares how this activity about patterns could be linked to other patterns in nature and science. Learn More…
Planning Professional Learning Using the NGSS Implementation Pathway Model
Posted: Tuesday, November 4th, 2014
by John Spiegel, Anthony Quan, and Yamileth Shimojyo
The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) have the ability to transform teaching and learning in the classroom. They will dramatically change how students experience science by shifting the focus from the memorization of facts to greater student engagement in the processes of science. The NGSS emphasize learning in three dimensions: Science and Engineering Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Disciplinary Core Ideas. In addition, there are seven Conceptual Shifts, or Innovations, that have strong implications for teaching and learning. These shifts include the interconnected nature of science as practiced in the real world, the integration of science and engineering, the use of performance expectations, a focus on deeper understanding of content as well as application of content, and alignment to the Common Core State Standards. Teachers will ultimately be tasked with implementing the NGSS, but cannot do so without extensive time to plan and engage in professional learning. Learn More…

Nature at its best!!
This was our second trip to this beautiful lake. We were impressed with the rustic charm of this cottage the first time around and that was what brought us back here again along with of course the quiet solitude of the lake itself! This is a land where time stands still! Sometimes it is so calm that there is no whistling of gentle breeze nor are there any raindrops to stir the deep calm of the blue reflection in the crystal clear water. I used to look through the enchanted beauty of the evening horizon every day to see my thoughts disappear as I tried to absorb this heavenly beauty. All I heard then was the sound of the beat of my heart as the echo of the rhythm of nature harmonized with me! The cabin is very clean and well stocked with the basic necessities. The owners Connie and Jeanne live next door and are always eager to help! We appreciated everything thy did for us to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. Aside from fishing boating and just relaxing on the dock listening to loons, we also went to St. John island and Campabello island in Canada. Lubec (Easternmost town of U.S.) is only hour and half away. We also went to Columbia Falls just to get the wild blueberry pies from Wild Blueberry Land..delicious!! Yancy's in Callais, Nook and Cranny's on rt 9 and Cohills Inn in Lubec are some of delicious restaurants to explore! Thank you so much Jeanne and Connie! We will be returning again!

Literary Hook: Poem celebrates prairie grasses in the fall
By Christine Swanberg
Author and Poet
Here is a poem that celebrates the prairie grasses that grace this area during the fall.
Amidst Prairie Grass
Muhlenbergia filipes.
Pennestum setacei Rubrum.
Miscanthus sinesis Gracillimus.
Even the names are benedictions here.
Fall with its drama of transformation,
its salutation to the sun. Indian Summer:
golden spears and reeds rippling Ravenna grass.
Pampas grass. Frosted grasses
rooted in pungent black earth.
Riverways of roots and tubes.
Mondo grass returning to its source.
Seedheads bursting.
A single seed
deep within in a great labyrinth unseen:
So much goes on without us.
This poem was first published in Who Walks Among the Trees with Charity, Wind Pubications, 2005.Christine Swanberg is a local author and poet. She received the Lawrence E. Gloyd Community Impact Award at the 2012 Rockford Area Arts Council State of the Arts Awards.

Preludes & Offering – All from Vesper Voluntaries by Edward Elgar
- Preludes: Introduction (adagio) D minor, MVT 1 (andante) D major, MVT 2 (allegro) D minor, MVT 3 (andantino) in F major
- Offering music MVT 4 (allegretto piacevole) in B major
About Edward Elgar ……
He came into contact with the organ at an early age through his father's duties as organist at St George's Catholic Church, Worcester, and in his typically thorough way he taught himself to play from the tutors of Rinck and Best. In 1885 he succeeded his father in the post and it was probably during this time that he began to sketch the Vesper Voluntaries. In their final form they were one of the first fruits of his, in the event ill-fated, move to London from his beloved Worcestershire.
In the autumn of 1889 he and his new and adored bride Alice moved into a house in Norwood, near the Crystal Palace. Here he could hear orchestral concerts more or less daily, an important feature in the process of his growth as a composer. It was a difficult period in his development; the eventual master of the symphony, concerto and the oratorio was just beginning to emerge from the provincial writer of salon pieces and light orchestral scores.
His first major choral work, The Black Knight, was already sketched out and gently simmering inside his head, while the overture Froissart had been commissioned by the Three Choirs Festival for performance in September 1890. However, in spite of a few successes, he failed to make much headway and in 1891 the Elgars moved to Malvern, where he at last found the contentment that enabled him to blossom into the composer of the 'Enigma Variations' and all that was to follow.
Early in January 1890, shortly after the move to London, Elgar sold the Vesper Voluntaries to the publishers Orsborn & Tuckwood for five guineas – hardly great riches but rather more generous than the terms offered by Novello & Co. at the start of their relationship with the composer – and they appeared as Book 26 of The Vesper Voluntaries for the Organ, Harmonium, or American Organ. They are designed to be played on a two manual instrument without pedals but Elgar provided indications where they could be used if available. The latent grandness of many of the ideas makes them eminently suitable for expansion onto a larger canvas. The set comprises eight voluntaries with an introduction, an interlude between the fourth and fifth numbers and a coda; although designed to be played separately the pieces make a thoroughly satisfying continuous sequence, full of characteristic melodic and harmonic touches. The use of the same theme in the introduction, interlude and coda binds the work together and Elgar already adopts the quasi-orchestral approach to organ writing which was to be such a feature of his magnificent Sonata in G major a few years later.
Recessional music: Choral Song – Wesley
Samuel Sebastian Wesley (1810–1876), the outstanding church musician of Victorian England, was successively organist at the cathedrals of Hereford, Exeter, Winchester and Gloucester, and he spent seven years at Leeds Parish Church between the second and third of these appointments.
The whole work of Choral Song and Fugue, written at Exeter, is the third of his first set of Three Pieces for Chamber Organ, both sets having been written for the organ at Killerton House, Broadclyst, Exeter, the home of Wesley's pupil Lady Acland, to whom they are dedicated.
It comprises a cheerful, tuneful first movement (played today) followed by a fugue in which all textbook notions of this daunting form are quickly swept aside: its headlong progress is eventually checked by the arrival of the remote key of C sharp major, and at this point Wesley engineers a return to the home key of C major which has an almost Beethovenian audacity.
Choir Introit – The peace of the earth be with you
This short song is found at CH4 number 798. It's words and music are from a Guatemalan folk song. There is a scripture reference to John 14:27 – Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid.
There is also a link to our Harvest Thanksgiving last week, as we remember the creation in the Heaven's, the Rivers and the Oceans. It is in four part unaccompanied harmony.
Choir Anthem – Jesus, is the Name we honour
Our Anthem today is also from CH4. It's a newer worship song that we've sang as a hymn at least once – during the summer of this year. It was written in 2005 both words and music by Phil Lawson-Johnston. He is one of the most sensitive worship composers in Britain, and has always stood slightly outside the mainstream of worship musicians who've come to prominence in the British church over the past two decades. Known principally through his work with classically-influenced worship group Cloud who took their spirit-filled and intimate worship style out from their base at Holy Trinity, Brompton to churches up and down Britain in the 70s and 80s and, as the author of songs like "We Will Magnify", "Jesus Is King" and "Give Me A Hearing Heart", after 15 years in the worship ministry Johnston remains his own man.
The hymn reminds us of our Life in Christ, the coming again of Christ; and our adoration and our worship of Jesus and His Name. There are many scripture references, Acts 4:12; Hebrews 1:3; Hebrews 13:15; John 3:35; Matthew 1:21; Revelation 1:7; Revelation 17:14; and Revelation 19:16. I want to think on John 3: 35 – The Father loves the Son and has placed all things in his hands. "The Father loves the Son". But what is the meaning of this reason? Does he regard all others with hatred? The answer is easy, that he does not speak of the common love with which God regards men whom he has created, or his other works, but of that peculiar love which, beginning with the Son, flows from him to all the creatures. For that love with which, embracing the Son, he embraces us also in him, leads him to communicate all his benefits to us by his hand.
He has indeed placed all things in His hands, but God has placed the care of His creation in our hands so it is appropriate that we thank God though His Son for our glory of creation, our physical nourishment and sustenance.
The music is lively and catchy! Verses are in unison followed by a straightforward SATB harmony. I'm sure you will be tapping your foot as we sing it!

So yeah, what's the deal? What are the standards for matchmaking?
Today in champ select, a wild Xin appears, insta locks although his position was already called, and proceeds to not speak at all. Eventually he fed horribly, and didn't speak A SINGLE WORD during the whole match, neither responded any pings. He costed us the match, by feeding Vlad and Anivia, which were very hard to stop as they had way more money than us.
After the match is done, we realized that our Xin was lvl 1 with 0 wins, the only lvl 1 with 0 wins in both teams! What's the deal with this? Now I know it's just a normal so no biggie, but it kinda sucks to know you're probably gonna lose because 5 minutes on, your top laner has died 6 times already, has no cs, buys stupid items and does not communicate at all. After all we are supposed to have fun and have a good time with the team, but it's incredible how 1 person can ruin that. Even if he was just bad it would've been ok, but not talking at all and making us change original team comp due to his lack of communication? not cool. Why did we get matched with him? The other team was completely balanced lvl wise.
Well either way, although it was frustrating during the game, I don't really care that we lost, but I really wonder what's with matchmaking, if someone was so kind to explain. Does this happen in ranked also? I know it can't happen lvl wise, but elo wise?

Runa's approach to creating a zero calorie product is to simply forgo the sweetener, which allows the product to fully maintain the integrity of the original. From a flavor perspective, we like it a lot: the naturally complex flavor of the guayusa and the added guava havie more than enough taste to satisfy the palate. The earthy flavor of the guayusa is still very much the star of this product, with the guava flavor acting to complement, rather than compete. It's a very well executed formulation that we could definitely drink again and again. And, like the other Runa flavors, you get the pop of 90mg of natural caffeine. Visually, we have slightly mixed feelings. On the one hand, they've kept the same look as the sugar sweetened flavors, which is definitely appealing to the eyes. On the other hand, the callout for "unsweetened" is small and easy to miss. Whether they like it or not, consumers who are familiar with the product probably will focus on the red "guava guayusa tea" and miss the notice about it being unsweetened. After all, it looks the same, it must be the same as the others, right? Still, this is a small issue that could be addressed with a larger visual callout. Overall, we're big fans of what's inside the bottle, but some tweaks to the outside would make it the complete package.

If you're having a problem, even if it's a big one, you're not alone. Dhruva Maharaja, the great devotee mentioned in Bhagavatam Canto Four, is also within the group of "problem-havers"...
The Yamuna River is worshipable, for her greatest pleasure is to serve Krsna and His pastimes in Vraja. One of these pastimes in which the bank of the Yamuna served as a backdrop was Krsna's killing of Vatsasura...
Krsna and Balarama continued to watch as the calves ate grass and drank water. Krsna approached one calf, massaged the calf's face and limbs, hugged the calf, and said in the calf's ear, "Do you want to go to your mother?...
Srila Sanatana Gosvami comments that because in Vrndavana Krsna goes barefoot and can thus directly mark the earth with the symbols of His lotus feet, that transcendental land is even more glorious than Vaikuntha, where Visnu wears slippers....
That is the real picture of God. The Vrndavana-lila of Krsna is the perfect presentation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He's simply enjoying. And all the inhabitants of Vrndavana, the gopis, the cowherd boys, Maharaja Nanda, Yasoda, everyone is simply anxious how to make Krsna happy...
Krsna can fulfill any purpose you desire. It is not very difficult for Him, because He is almighty, full with all opulences. So if you want something, material happiness, from Krsna, it is not very difficult for Krsna. He can give you mukti even. But to ask from Krsna anything else than bhakti is foolishness....
For iron to be attracted by a magnet is natural. Similarly, for all living entities to be attracted toward Krsna is natural, and therefore the Lord's real name is Krsna, meaning He who attracts everyone and everything....
May Sri Yamuna, who is the daughter of Suryadeva, a drop of whose water destroys the sinful reactions of the people, who creates a great flood of confidential pure devotional service to Lord Nandananadana, and who brings auspiciousness to they who desire to live on her shore, always purify me...
When Krsna walked on the bank of the Yamuna, He was seen nicely decorated with tilaka on His face. He was garlanded with different kinds of forest flowers, and His body was smeared with the pulp of sandalwood and tulasi leaves....
"When will I reside in Vrndavana like a helpless person while glorifying the transcendental pastimes of Sri Sri Radha and Krsna, while condemning material enjoyment because of achieving supreme bliss within the heart, and while loudly crying out, "O my dear Lord! O Shyamasundara!"...
What deeds enacted in previous lives cause one to inhabit a butterfly body alighting upon a blossoming mustard plant in Vraja, near Govardhana Hill?...
Hare Krsna. All glories to Srila Sanatana Gosvami, whose samadhi mandir shelters all who visit him near Madan Mohan mandir....
There, in Nandagram, you will see many calves that look like white crystals as they run around after freeing their tails from the hands of the cowherd boys. You will also see many calves frolicking after having smelled the tips of new grass....
O friend, Vrndavana is spreading the glory of the earth, having obtained the treasure of the lotus feet of Krsna, the son of Devaki. The peacocks dance madly when they hear Govinda's flute, and when other creatures see them from the hilltops, they all become stunned...
Wheat is a food which has always abundantly grown in the rich soil of Vraja. Krsna Himself was fond of the preparations cooked from Braja wheat, especially because they were soaked in the devotional love unique to Vrindavana....
Desiring to milk the cows, the gopas met with Krsna, who tastefuly performs all artistic feats and derives pleasure from all that He does. Moving His lotus eyes in all directions, Krsna milked the cows with great fun and affection....
Srila Bhaktsiddhanta Saraswati Thakura told a story about a wise old monkey and those of his followers who listened to him. And, of course, the lesson to be learned by noting the fate of those who didn't....
Krsna explains in Bhagavad-gita 9.30:"For one who sees Me everywhere and sees everything in Me, I am never lost, nor is he ever lost to Me." Seeing Krsna everywhere is certainly easier in Vraja dhama....
Prabhupada: I have faith in you. Now, I give sometimes this example. Just like you go to a barber shop, and you put your neck like this, and he is with the razor. So unless you have faith, "No, he is good man. He will not cut my throat," how can you do so?...
Four fortunate souls associating with the Yamuna River. Had we pure spiritual vision, what would we see? Srila Bhaktivinode Thakura describes the bank of the River Yamuna in an intimate lila-kirtana....
What nonsense! What nonsense! What misfortune! Even though he is a 'great man' he still does not like blissful Vrndavana!...
Hare Krsna. All glories to Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu on His appearance day! During Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's stay in Sri Vrindaban dhama, the Lord would chant japa near the Yamuna River beneath the spreading branches of the tamarind tree known as tentuli-tala, or Amli tala....
How can a person who has never seen Vrndavana's Yamuna river, which is filled with eternally blooming indivara, kamala, kahlara, kumuda, and other lotus flowers, all filled with the sweet humming sounds of bumblebees, and which displays the places where Sri Sri Radha-Muralidhara and Their friends enjoyed transcendental pastimes, remain alive?...
The Yamuna River bank calms the mind and offers peace and shelter to all, including those souls in the attached photo who are sitting peacefully at the bank of the Yamuna as the sun begins to set....
Even ducks and other birds of Vrindaban partipate in Krsna's wonderful pastimes. "Some boys imitated flying birds by running after the bird's shadows on the ground, some imitated the beautiful movements and attractive postures of the swans, some sat down with the ducks, sitting silently, and others imitated the dancing of the peacocks."...
When will I renounce very comfortable sleeping arrangements and instead take rest on the ground of Vraja? When will I renounce materially palatable foodstuffs, and simply eat whatever I can obtain by begging in the land of Vraja?...
Hare Krsna. A cow and her calf near the Yamuna River, who soothes and sweetens the atmosphere of Vrindaban. Indeed, when Krsna and Balarama along with the Vrajavasis first left Gokula to entered Vrindaban, they too felt the highest satisfaction as They saw her....
Hare Krsna. Years ago I published a book of memories of my association with Srila Prabhupada. It was entitled, "My Glorious Master". Within that book was a section describing a devotee named Ugrasrava dasa and his offering of a carry case to Srila Prabhupada in Melbourne in 1974....
Let hundreds of arrows of harsh words pierce my heart. Let hundreds and hundreds of kicks fall on my head. Let hundreds of days pass where I am unable to get even the smallest meal. Remembering at every moment the fair and dark glories that are my life's treasure, and whose forms are two oceans of sweet nectar, I shall happily live in Vrndavana....
Without ever becoming tired, please always meditate on beautiful Vrndavana, which is glorious with numberless charming forests of parijata and other splendid trees, worshipped by demigods full of love for Lord Hari's lotus feet, plunged into an ocean of the light of millions of moons, and unapproachable even by the host of Upanisads....
Most devotees' lives and views on devotional service change as their ashram changes. When several devotees pass through ashram changes at approximately the same time-or even if one respected devotee within a temple changes his ashram-a temple can become affected....

Celebration Brunch featuring guest speaker Lana Veenker
Founder and president of Cast Iron Studios Lana Veenker has worked with Hollywood's top producers, actors and directors on major television series (Grimm, Leverage) and blockbuster movies (Twilight), often without braving Los Angeles traffic and smog.
From her first job as a casting assistant in London to her current position as the president of Cast Iron Studios in Portland, Oregon, Veenker has launched a rewarding career in a creative, green and increasingly global industry that, thanks to technology and film legislation, no longer requires a Hollywood ZIP code in order to succeed.
In her address, Veenker will provide insights and anecdotes on her career in casting, explain why Oregon has become a hotspot for film and television production and explore career prospects in media and advertising.
With more than 20 years of experience in the entertainment industry, Veenker's credits span the globe. Before founding Cast Iron Studios (formerly Lana Veenker Casting) in 1999, she acted in France, England and Venezuela, lived in India and the West Indies, and helped hire European leads for major studios and networks as part of a London casting office. As a member of the International Casting Directors Network (ICDN) and the Casting Society of America (CSA), Lana maintains strong partnerships worldwide. She speaks French and Spanish, and frequently lectures in the United States and abroad. In a single week, she's been known to sway legislators with compelling arguments for Oregon's film incentives, fly to Paris to produce a staged reading and top-rope up the side of an Austrian WWII anti-aircraft tower.

Juelz Santana - Soft
Artist: Juelz Santana
Featuring: Rick Ross, Fabolous, Meek Mill
Producer: Young Shun
Album: God Will'n'
Avg Rating: 2.3 ( 12 votes )
Think Juelz Santana's coming too hard? The Harlem rhymesayer begs to differ—according to his latest mixtape single, it's his competition that's too Soft. The artist's first DJBooth feature since January 2010's Home Run, this street-ready selection sees the Dipset affiliate examining both the positive and negative sides of the titular adjective, luxuriating in the texture of the leather seats in his whip while excoriating sucker emcees for their lack of backbone. Joining the headliner over Young Shun's synth-percussion boardwork, Ricky Rozay, Meek Mill and Fabolous provide aggressive, braggadocious guest bars. Feeling it? You can expect more bangers where this came from on forthcoming street album God Will'n, scheduled for digital release on the 14th.

Vinegar is an incredibly versatile product and has become a household staple as it is cheap, widely available, and can be used for just about anything. One misconception about vinegar is that it is a good way to clean and descale coffee machines. While it may sound self-serving, here's why it is...
OverviewBack to Top
The ability to remove coffee residue and build-up from your super-automatic's brew group now comes in a tiny tablet. Urnex Cafiza Cleaning Tablets have been formulated to quickly dissolve and powerfully clean super-automatic's brew groups, and can also be used to clean the drip tray. Simply follow the instructions listed below for a sparkling clean machine in no time. Urnex Cafiza Home Espresso Machine Cleaning Tablets are recommended for use with any super-automatic espresso machine and are available in boxes with 8 tablets each.
If your super automatic has a cleaning program:
Follow the instructions supplied by the manufacturer.
If your super automatic doesn't have a cleaning program but does have a pre-ground coffee or bypass chute:
Place a Cafiza(TM) tablet in the pre-ground coffee chute and place a cup under the coffee spout. Press the button corresponding to brewing with pre-ground coffee and allow the machine to go through a typical brewing cycle. Repeat this cycle a minimum of 3 additional times, but without adding more tablets to the machine. Then, remove the coffee dispensing unit and rinse it carefully using clean water. Before using the appliance again, prepare two cups of coffee by pressing the button corresponding to brewing with pre-ground coffee, but without adding any coffee, and then discard.
If your super automatic does not have a cleaning program or a pre-ground coffee chute:
Place one Cafiza(TM) Home tablet in a cup and fill it with hot water. Remove the coffee dispensing unit and clean the filters and the dispensing channel with the prepared cleaning solution using a sponge or a small brush. Let the solution take effect for at least five minutes, then repeat this operation a minimum of three times. Rinse the coffee dispensing unit thoroughly with clean water before reinstalling. To clean the drip tray, place a Cafiza(TM) Home tablet inside and fill it 2/3 full with hot water. Let the cleaning solution take effect for about 30 minutes and rinse thoroughly.
To clean the drip tray:
Place a Cafiza(TM) Home tablet inside, and fill it 2/3 full with hot water. Let the cleaning solution take effect for about 30 minutes, then thoroughly rinse.

Hello friends! Great to be back here writing to you. This week as quite a busy one, I ventured to NYC to visit the Macy's corporate offices and perform at an in store in long island. I had a couple sick experiences, the first was getting to meet Kassandra who won a sweespstake contest to come and meet me at the mall. It's such an amazing opportunity when I get to connect with my fans in person as a pose to just online. Kassandra was a kind and genuine girl who I'm glad I had the pleasure of meeting! The in store went great as well, it was an intimate show which means I was up close and personal with everyone (my favorite type of show). How's everyone doing today? I'm trying to plan my christmas holiday, thinking about heading home to Australia or maybe Hawaii. Need some time just to chill and relax and write music on the beach. Hope you have an awesome holiday as well. Until next time everyone!
