When it comes to installing home appliances, especially water heaters, it's best to have professional help. Appliance installation is a precise task that needs a trained individual to ensure proper installation and safety to your home. When professionals install your new water heater, they deliver the water heater, remove your old water heater, set up and test the new one, explain how to use and maintain it, and clean up after themselves before they leave.
Here are four reasons you should request professional water heater installation:
Safety. Installing a water heater is complicated and can be dangerous. If improperly installed, you can be exposed to very hot water, carbon monoxide, high voltage electricity or gas.
Water heater sellers, manufacturers and installers want to protect your family and your property, so installers are trained to install water heaters correctly.
Take comfort with trusted service. Professionals are licensed, bonded, insured and background-checked plumbers in your area who you can trust to do the job right. They make sure your water heater delivers peak performance so you get the maximum life from your new water heater. Some manufacturers or sellers have a 1-year warranty on water heater installation and have a dedicated hotline to address any questions you have later.
Adhere to local code requirements. A job done correctly to code by a licensed professional ensures a safe home environment. Professional installation passes any necessary inspections and meets current safety code requirements.
Save time and money. A professional installer can complete the job faster than the average do-it-yourselfer. With a professional installer, you won't need extra tools or have to correct any mistakes or mishaps. Additionally, some states don't charge sales tax on water heaters or the installation cost if purchased together.

Stepping into history
Aug 13, 2013
By Nicole Montesano
Of the News-Register
The self-guided walking tour will feature seven historic homes, all more than a century old, and a restored church. It is set for 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 17.
Tickets at $10 each are on sale now at Oregon Stationers and the Farmers Market in McMinnville. They also will be available the day of the tour at the newly restored First Baptist Church in Dayton.
Located at 301 Main Street, the church was built in 1886. It will feature a collection of historic photographs of Dayton.
YES is also planning to host a garden party afterward in the extensive garden at 421 Sixth St. Featuring fine wine and food from several local restaurants, it runs $20.
Tour coordinator Patti Webb said the society plans to organize a tour of historic Newberg homes next year.
The tours are a fundraiser for YES, a nonprofit dedicated to cultural enrichment in a variety of areas, including arts and education, food and agriculture, and history and community. Webb, who serves on the board of directors, said the tours are "about preserving our history and educating people about our history."
The society received grants from the Yamhill County Cultural Coaltion to reproduce historical photographs for use in the tours. Kelly Haverkate of Dayton was responsible for this year's set.
The Dayton tour will include:
- The Joel Palmer House, 600 Ferry St., built by Dayton founder Joel Palmer in 1857. Palmer served as Superintendent of Indian Affairs for Oregon Territory. He went on to serve as speaker in the House of Representatives, and later as a senator. The house is one of the oldest classical revival buildings in the state.
- The Lewis-Shippy House at 421 Sixth St., built in 1891-92 by farmer Benjamin Lewis as his retirement home. It is Italianate, with bungalow-style porches added in the early 1920s.
- The Victor Krause & Evonne Foshee House at 414 Sixth St., built in 1901.
- The Mabee-Mayberry House at 309 Seventh St., built in 1890.
- The O.B. Rippey House at 523 Ash St., a Queen Anne residence built in 1890.
- The Paul Londershausen House at 309 Main St., built in 1921 in the bungalow-style.
- The Mellinger House at 414 Fifth St., erected in 1904 in the Queen Anne style.
- First Baptist Church at 301 Main St., built in 1886 and recently restored by Bill Stoller of the Stoller Family Estate.
For more information about the tour, call Webb at 971-237-2360. To learn more about YES, visit yamhillenrichmentsociety.org.

Penn State's famed ice cream comes to Lehigh Valley
Updated On: Oct 29 2013 05:07:30 PM CDT
Restaurants in Hotel Bethlehem now are serving 10 flavors of ice cream from the Creamery at Pennsylvania State University in State College.
And you can even get it to go.
The hotel "is helping Penn State fans, alumni, students, and just about anyone else with a sweet tooth, satisfy their cravings for the many flavors of the university's famous ice cream." said spokeswoman Tracey Werner.
"The flavorful offerings also include between one and three flavors-of-the-month and limited-run flavors. Current specialty flavors include Pumpkin Pie and Alumni Swirl."
The hotel is at 437 Main St. in downtown Bethlehem.
The ice cream is available in sugar cones, waffle cones or waffle bowls. To place an order, customers can visit the hostess stand in the lobby and get their ice cream to go, or they can choose to dine in one of the restaurants.
Prices are $2 for one scoop; $4 for two scoops; $6 for three scoops; and an additional $1 for the waffle cones.
Considering the area's strong fan base of Penn State alumni and students, as well as its satellite campus, Hotel Bethlehem's food and beverage management staff approached Penn State's Creamery about selling the ice cream in the Lehigh Valley, explained Werner.
"Each week a new delivery of ice cream is made to the hotel, with the most popular flavors selling out quickly, especially on special event weekends."
According to the university, the Creamery -- now officially called Berkery Creamery -- is the largest university creamery in the nation.
Each year, about 4.5 million pounds of milk pass through the creamery's stainless steel holding tanks, with about half coming from a 225-cow herd at the university's Dairy Production Research Center, and the rest being purchased from an independent milk producer.

McDonalds' patience with Ezilla pays dividends; BLOODSTOCK WORLD.
EVERY cloud has a silver lining, but for Jim and Mary McDonald of Herbage Stud, there must have been plenty of moments during the early life of their homebred Ezilla when that looked unlikely, writes Nancy Sexton.
As a sister to Listed winner Ebaziya, later the dam of the Group 1 winners Enzeli, Ebadiyla and Edabiya, Ezilla was bred to be good. But hopes of a racing career ended early when the daughter of Darshaan broke a shoulder as a foal.
The McDonalds opted to retain Ezilla as a broodmare, a decision that paid off in fine style when her Sadler's Wells daughter, Ezima, won two Listed races in the care of Jim Bolger. Consequently, Ezima became the subject of spirited bidding when she entered the ring during the early hours of yesterday's session at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale, eventually falling to Shadwell Estates for 320,000gns.
John O'Connor, whose Ballylinch Stud consigned Ezima, said: "It was only due to Jim McDonald's persistence and care that Ezilla was able to be kept as a broodmare."
McDonald purchased Ezilla's dam, Ezana, through O'Connor for Ir40,000gns at the 1994 Goffs November Sale, in foal to Akarad.
Although Ezana hailed from a deep Aga Khan family, the stud career of her daughter, Ebaziya, had at that time not taken off.
O'Connor said: "Ezana was already the dam of Ebaziya when we bought her. But Ebaziya had yet to produce her three Group 1 winners.
"Jim sent her back to Darshaan to replicate Ebaziya and, later on, it was the obvious thing to do to send Ezilla as a Darshaan mare to Sadler's Wells."
Ezana was retired after foaling a colt by Soviet Star in 2007.
However, McDonald still owns Ezilla as well as her five-year-old Linamix daughter, Shellin, and a yearling filly by Cape Cross.
Ezilla foaled a filly by Galileo this season and visited Invincible Spirit.

"In the news business, we call this a story with legs," said Kate Philips and Maria Newman in The New York Times. ACORN, the community organizing group, has been losing allies since some of its workers were videotaped offering advice on getting a housing loan and evading taxes to conservative activists posing as a pimp and a prostitute. ACORN is "so radioactive" that Democrats have joined Republicans in banning it from getting federal funds—and again Tuesday Sen. Mike Johanns (R-Neb.) "forced a voice vote to ban any funds in the defense spending bill from going to ACORN."
That's not ACORN's only problem, said Rick Moran in American Thinker. Judges on Wednesday are looking at allegations of voting fraud connected to ACORN in New York and Las Vegas, where an ACORN field director testified he gave $5 "blackjack bonuses" to canvassers who turned in 21 or more voter-registration cards in a day. "This is the tip of the iceberg of course. But the more malfeasance exposed, the more ACORN employees start flipping."
"One of the problems with witch hunts," said Rich Miller in The Capitol Fax Blog, "is that they eventually start to burn those who merely associated with the alleged witches." That's what is happening with the ACORN thing—critics are "not content to just bash" ACORN, now they want to demonize everybody who has ever been associated with it. So now attackers are going after the Service Employees International Union because it has supported ACORN in the past.
ACORN's enemies may be creating problems for themselves, too, said Mary Phillips-Sandy in Comedy Central's Indecision Forever. The House bill blocking ACORN funding covers anyone who has submitted fraudulent paperwork—which would deny money to some of Congress' "favorite pals, like Boeing and Northrup Grumman" and anyone else who has been caught selling defective gear to the Army. What a shame—after all, it's "middle-aged ladies in community organizers' offices who are the real threat to democracy"—not the defense lobby, right?

Jimmy Kennedy named TheMat com Wrestler of the Week
By Craig Sesker USA Wrestling | Oct. 15, 2012, 10:23 a.m. (ET)Jimmy Kennedy (Ann Arbor, Mich./New York AC) has been named TheMat.com Wrestler of the Week.
Each week, TheMat.com will select an Athlete of the Week, based upon performance within wrestling for that week. The selection committee will consider any level of wrestling, from youth programs through the Senior level.
Kennedy won a bronze medal in freestyle wrestling at 60 kg/132 lbs. at the Ramzan Kadyrov Cup on Sunday in Grozny, Russia.
Kennedy finished the tournament with a 4-1 record. He opened with victories over two Russian opponents, Saidmagomed Masiev and Akhmed Chakaev, and a forfeit win over 2012 University World champion Vasyl Shuptar of Ukraine.
His only loss came in the semifinals, when he was defeated by Alexander Bogomaev of Russia by scores of 1-0, 5-0. Bogomaev went on to win the gold medal. Bogomaev has already won five international tournaments in 2012, and was third at the 2012 Ivan Yarygin Grand Prix.
Kennedy, a three-time NCAA Alll-American for Illinois, bounced back to win his bronze-medal match 1-0, 1-0 over a Russian opponent.
Kennedy placed seventh at the University World Championships earlier this month.
Note: To nominate a wrestler for TheMat.com Wrestler of the Week, send the athlete's name, accomplishments for the week and career accomplishments to Craig Sesker at email@example.com

As a parent, you're responsible for a lot of things your kid does, whether you like it or not. You're the first to hear about how polite he was at his friend's birthday party last week, and the one passersby glare at when he has a meltdown at Chuck E. Cheese because he doesn't want to leave. And now, you (and your wallet) may be on the hook if your child is failing at school: both Alaska and California recently passed laws allowing parents to be fined or brought up on charges if children are repeatedly truant.
It's just one topic MSNBC tackled in its special Making the Grade, which focused on various issues facing our nation's education system.
What do you think? Should parents be responsible when a child fails at school? Watch the edition of iVillage's The Conversation Thread that discusses the topic, and let us know what you think in the comments below.

Travel Contest Roundup: Hit the Slopes with 6 Chances to Win a Ski Vacation
We realize travel budgets may be limited, but it's free to dream. This is where contests come into the picture, and there's always the chance that you could be the big winner—just don't forget to tell us if you are!
Here are six vacation contests to enter right now that will help you truly enjoy the winter weather:
Roam With Rice Sweepstakes – Wyoming Tourism
The big prize here is a trip to Wyoming, and that includes plenty of opportunities to hit the slopes. The winner gets a chance to take on the mountains with Travis Rive, and that's in addition to a four-night trip for two to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. They'll include airfare, accommodations, lift tickets, and a pair of snowboards too. Get your details in order, as you have until January 5 to enter this contest—good luck.
Steamboat Boat Load Sweepstakes
No need to hit the local mountain this year, as we have a feeling that you might be the big winner on this ski season contest. Just submit your information before April 12, and you'll be entered for a chance to win. The grand prize is a VIP trip for four people to the Steamboat Ski Resort—over in Colorado—and that includes airfare, lift tickets, lodging, ski rentals, and a couple other goodies. Even if you miss the big prize, there are other prizes too like skis, boots, snowboards, and GoPro cameras.

What to Eat in Vienna: 19 Foods That'll Rock Your World
Vienna is so much more than Schnitzel.
It's also more than opera, Mozart, Empress Sisi, and Edelweiss on a mountainside. Vienna, Austria is a world capital of good eating, a fact that doesn't get nearly enough play. We'd almost rank it above Paris in terms of excellent culinary adventures, and we simply cannot narrow down our favorite Viennese flavors to a list of 5 or 10 items; nope, we have 19 must-try Vienna food and drinks to share with you.

From Unknown Airlines to Rickety Trains: How to Get Around Burma
It seems like everyone and their moms are going to Burma. Or is it Myanmar? (For the answer, see here.) Thanks to political and humanitarian reforms of the last several years, this Southeast Asian country is more open than ever to tourism. Over the next week or so, Jaunted's Julia Buckley will be sharing her tips and experiences as a traveler in Burma without a tour group and without memorizing a guidebook, but with common sense and open eyes on a Burma Field Trip.
So you've debunked your myths, got your e-visa and you're ready to go to Burma. Great! What's next?
Working out how to get around.
This is a pain. Burma is a big country, much bigger than you thought. Most people fly into Yangon/Rangoon RGN Airport, and, from there, visit the temples of Bagan, Lake Inle and (if they have time) Mandalay. But Yangon to Bagan is 400 miles. Bagan to Inle is a mountainous 250 miles. Which doesn't sound much, but it takes forever. Yangon to Bagan 8-9 hours, for example, and that's in a taxi.
Luckily, there are several ways of traveling in Myanmar. Which should you pick?

The 101 on Travel to Burma: 10 Myanmar Myths Debunked
It seems like everyone and their moms are going to Burma. Or is it Myanmar? Thanks to political and humanitarian reforms of the last several years, this Southeast Asian country is more open than ever to tourism. Over the next week or so, Jaunted's Julia Buckley will be sharing her tips and experiences as a traveler in Burma without a tour group and without memorizing a guidebook, but with common sense and open eyes on a Burma Field Trip.
Every tourist arriving in Burma for the first time does so with their head full of expectations, stereotypes, or misconceptions (or all three). Much of the common intelligence on travel in the country is sadly out of date or simply not true. It's time to explode some myths; here's the Jaunted 101 on travel myths in Burma.
"It's Myanmar, not Burma."
False. Most people assume that Burma is the colonial name and Myanmar is therefore right-on. But it's not that easy. "Myanmar" was coined in 1988 after pro-democracy movements ended in bloodshed, so pro-democracy people, like Aung San Suu Kyi, prefer Burma. The US and UK governments say Burma – ditto Rangoon instead of Yangon. Having said that, once you're there, and all the locals are calling it Myanmar, it seems disrespectful not to. Basically – make your own mind up or, as we do, vacillate.
"Getting a visa is a headache."
False. An e-visa costs $50, you do everything online, with no need to surrender your passport, and it takes no time to arrive (mine came in two days, they promise within a week). Apply here. What's more, you can now enter via Mandalay and Nay Pyi Taw airports, as well as Yangon, with the e-visa.

That Expat Life: Countries Where Americans May Easily Emigrate
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you choose?
Would you enjoy the sunsets on a beach in Phuket? Maybe you'd prefer a diet of pasta and Chianti in a Tuscan village? For those wanting to experience life in another country, it can be difficult on pesky 30- or 90-day tourist visas. Do you really feel as if you experienced life in another city, or even country, based on these limited days? That's not even enough time to learn how to properly order two Big Macs—one without tomato and one easy on the dressing—in a new language.
Operating outside of these visas can be difficult. Stay beyond those days and you risk deportation and the possibility of never returning to that beloved country. So, for those itching to get out of America, here are some spots where obtaining an extended visa is quite easy.
Oh, and we're not talking about student visas or the like. If that were the case, you could easily relocate to Vietnam as an English teacher. These countries allow Americans to easily uproot and emigrate.

Brandenburg Gate. Alexanderplatz. Checkpoint Charlie.
The 25th Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall has done more than just shed a brighter light on some of Berlin's best-known tourist sites; it's wholly reignited interest in the brief history of the DDR (Deutsche Demokratische Republik), aka East Germany. Although the DDR technically ceased to exist upon Berlin reunification in 1990 and East Germany feverishly adapted to Western fashion and culture, the particular details of DDR everyday life continue to fascinate.
A handful of Berlin sites continue to preserve DDR design, and anyone is welcome to visit. Here are five of our favorites:

The 10 Small Things Cathay Pacific Does to Make Economy Class Special
"OMG, you're going to have such a great time" isn't the typical response to someone saying they're about to spend over 14 hours on a plane...in Economy.
Alack and alas, we find ourselves reacting in this way when said travel involves flying Cathay Pacific.
Since Cathay Pacific is based in Hong Kong, a "Special Administrative Region" under China and only 426 square miles in size, it has no domestic flights. Every flight from Hong Kong International Airport is truly international, and thus Cathay is an airline completely equipped for long-haul travel, with a fleet of all wide-body aircraft. On top of that, Cathay only introduced their new Economy seats in 2012, so the interiors aren't as tired as you may have come to expect from long-haul aircraft.
While other airlines may offer some of these perks, it's Cathay's particular ratio of comfort to friendliness that may help travelers be least anxious about spending a 14-16 hour nonstop in coach.
How Cathay Pacific makes Economy Class special:

Here are five vacation contests to enter right now that will get you some fun in the sun:
American Express - Win a Stay With Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts
You know you're going to have a nice time away from home when you're staying at a Four Season Resort, and that's exactly what American Express is giving away. The grand prize includes around $2,500 in gift cards as well as a stay at a Four Season location around the world. Since we're talking about Mexico we guess we need to recommend Mexico City; however, spots like Sydney, Costa Rica, and Paris are options as well.
Luke Bryan's Crash My Playa Sweepstakes
It doesn't matter if you like Luke Bryan or not, as we're sure you'll be his new best friend if he gives you a free vacation. Enter by November 11 for a four-night all inclusive concert vacation in Riviera Maya, Mexico. Airfare to and from Cancun is included, as is ground transportation, tickets to the performances, and a stay at the Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya.

The 5 Most Breathtaking, Must-See Views in Norway
Unlike most European countries where you're expected to stop at old churches, fancy art galleries, and popular historical places, in Norway you venture elsewhere. You venture away from the city, away from any Monet paintings or notion of traffic.
In Norway, you sequester yourself in nature, exploring fjords, mountains, glaciers, and even polar bears. Because Norway's scenery is insanely popular, inspiring films like Frozen and even finding itself regularly on the front pages of websites around the world. So what are these natural spots?

Brooklyn Bird (CLOSED)
Clinton Hill

Time Out says
Posted: Wed Mar 27 2013
A chicken's flying into the Clinton Hill coop—a chicken joint, that is. Filmmaker turned chef Paul Ceriello is behind this Southern-comfort spot on Myrtle Avenue, which has a menu unsurprisingly heavy on poultry: a classic spiedie sub with marinated chicken and cheese; chicken and dumplings; and, most prominently, wings, from mild to ghost-chili hot. Non-bird options include bacon-truffle grilled cheese and tacos teeming with organic veggies and pineapple salsa. Late-night munchers can perch at a tall-boy table for a signature Roman Candle ground beef sammie (blue-cheese dressing, buffalo sauce, grilled Italian bread) and local drafts (Sixpoint) till the wee hours. The 850-square-foot space evokes an after-hours dinette with original tin ceilings and a hand-painted menu on the wall; a blue neon sign spelling out "BIRD" and hanging birdcages (one filled with bread loaves, another with blue high-top sneakers) nod to the restaurant's name.

"Boston Strong" is a motto that has captivated this city and this team. They will not go down without a fight, and that fight starts with the drop of the puck. Keep your head up and legs moving, and get through a big push by the Bruins who will try to grab the momentum early.
[MORE: 2010 all over again]
2. Continue the clean breakouts and speed through the neutral zone: Chicago has done an excellent job the last two games of breaking pucks out efficiently and making smart passes through the neutral ice area. This creates a lot of speed for the Blackhawks and backs off the Bruins defensemen, opening up the offensive zone for the Hawks to attack. A lot of goals have been scored off the rush, and that's because Chicago has been attacking with speed. Tape to tape passes has been the key to breaking any Boston full-court press.

3. Keep forcing the Bruins captain: Zdeno Chara is a huge part of this Boston team, and he looks like a tired man. It would not surprise me to find out that he was not at 100% during this series. The Blackhawks have done a great job of putting pucks in his corner and forcing turnovers. He's a master of breaking up plays, but has struggled with the puck himself. Speed has never been his strong suit, and the Blackhawks have been exposing that the last couple of games. The Blackhawks need to get on a 2-on-1 against him with a strong cycle out of the corners.

Experimental indie rockers Tera Melos just sent us their hooky new track "Sunburn," and we've had it stuck in our heads for the past hour. These guys are from Northern Californa, which may explain their liberal meshing of genre and willingness to fool around. You can hear hints of mid-90s Chicago indie, Hella, and HEALTH all over "Sunburn." Their new album X'ed Out will be available everywhere April 16th through the fine folks at Sargent House.

Philippe Couillard succeeds by not being a polarizing force: Hébert
The Quebec Liberal party may not win on April 7 under Philippe Couillard but neither is it likely to suffer the fate of its federal cousin under Michael Ignatieff and be reduced to a non-entity across francophone Quebec.

MONTREAL—As a campaigner Philippe Couillard will never be in the same league as Jean Charest.
The rookie Quebec Liberal leader is unlikely to ever set a partisan crowd on fire.
Chances are he has never been handed a one-liner that he did not want to bury in a paragraph or even better a page of reasoned arguments.
In the lead-up to the Quebec campaign his inauspicious beginnings as leader led many of the Quebec watchers who toil on Parliament Hill to dismiss him as a lightweight.
Based on the Liberal decline in the polls over the course of the debate on the PQ's secularism charter, they say his first campaign was an accident waiting to happen.
To borrow the unflattering comparison of a senior federal Liberal, Couillard was widely considered as another Michael Ignatieff
And yet, since the election call, the tide has steadily turned in this brainy nerd's favour.
Polls suggest that the Liberal leader won last week's debate.
He entered the second half of the campaign with a fragile lead on the Parti Québécois.
The Quebec Liberal party may not win on April 7 but neither is it likely to suffer the fate of its federal cousin under Ignatieff and be reduced to a non-entity across francophone Quebec.
Against the expectations of many, the fact that Couillard is not cut from the same campaign cloth as his combative predecessor has so far actually been an asset.
A sovereigntist dragon slayer who earned the title by delivering fiery pro-Canada speeches in the 1995 referendum, Charest came as close as any successful Quebec politician can to what many in the rest of Canada construe as an ideal Quebec federalist champion.
But what is often overlooked is that Charest did well on the Quebec scene in spite of his credentials as a unity warrior. Those provided his Quebec rivals with an endless supply of ammunition.
They made it easier to depict him as a federalist crusader on a Canadian-appointed mission who was just posing as a defender of Quebec's interests.
The description stuck in the minds of a good many Quebecers.
It did not help that Charest's body language initially suggested that he was reluctant to serve provincially. Or that he often seemed disengaged from strictly provincial matters.
The connection between the Liberal premier and the electorate was never as strong as it could have been.
Couillard — for now — does not elicit the same strong feelings. He is not as polarizing a figure.
He was not on the scene at the time of the constitutional wars.
He carries little or no referendum baggage.
Governance rather than campaigning is more likely to be his strong suit.
As health minister Couillard publicly opposed Charest's preferred site for Montreal's new French-language mega-hospital . . . and won.
That makes him one of only two former senior Liberal ministers (Thomas Mulcair is the other) who stared down Charest. In the campaign, that has provided Couillard with useful distance from his predecessor's regime.
If he becomes premier — and at this juncture that cannot be treated as a given — no one on Parliament Hill should expect Couillard to be less prickly to deal than his Liberal or péquiste predecessors.
He and Pauline Marois are basically of the same mind on most of the issues that pit Quebec against the Harper Conservatives.
He may be an unapologetic federalist but he is not on the same page as Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau on a higher than 50 per cent + 1 threshold for a pro-sovereignty referendum mandate.
His government would not come to the Senate reform table unless the Quebec issues left outstanding in the early 1990s were also on the agenda.
Finally, Couillard is at odds with the NDP on the Senate. He believes that the upper house plays an essential role and that it should not be abolished.
He has zero appetite for a referendum on any matter constitutional including Thomas Mulcair's proposed plebiscite on the future of the upper house.
If Couillard wins on April 7 he and his former cabinet colleague may have to have a talk.

Throughout the humanitarian crises of the 1990s, the international community failed to come up with rules on how and when to intervene, and under whose authority. Despite the new focus on terrorism, these debates will not go away. The issue must be reframed as an argument not about the "right to intervene" but about the "reponsibility to protect" that all sovereign states owe to their citizens.

The intervention in Somalia was not an abject failure; an estimated 100,000 lives were saved. But its mismanagement should be an object lesson for peacekeepers in Bosnia and on other such missions. No large intervention, military or humanitarian, can remain neutral or assuredly brief in a strife-torn failed state. Nation-building, the rebuilding of a state's basic civil institutions, is required in fashioning a self-sustaining body politic out of anarchy. In the future, the United States, the United Nations, and other intervenors should be able to declare a state "bankrupt" and go in to restore civic order and foster reconciliation.

Once the land of the unfree and the home of the coup, Latin America now exhibits many of the hallmarks of democracy: free and fair elections, smooth successions, free-market economies, and the birth of political parties. In spite of these recent advances, the region remains haunted by "fracasomania," or an obsession with failure. While Latin America has achieved the broad brushstrokes of democracy, it must confront corruption, protect the rights of indigenous peoples, and distribute wealth more evenly to resolve its crisis of representation.

Once you've come up with some ideas, the next thing to do is have a look at where on Disney property your choices are. If you've got a couple of restaurants you want to try in Epcot, then you can either schedule them for the same day, perhaps heading to one for an early lunch and then finishing your day with dinner at the other. If time allows, you might able to schedule two days at Epcot, dining at each of your choices. After all, the last thing you want to end up doing is having to leave the park you've decided to visit for the day to head over to another one, just for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It's something we've done on a couple of occasions, but we usually have the luxury of being at Disney for longer than many people, with our shortest visit lasting for eight nights.
As well as restaurants in each of the theme parks, don't forget about the great places to eat at the various Disney resorts. If you're at Magic Kingdom for a day, you can easily hop on the monorail and enjoy the dining options at the Contemporary, Polynesian and Grand Floridian, while the Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness are only a boat ride away. So although there are only five table service restaurants inside the Magic Kingdom, there are plenty of choices nearby.
Equally, there's also a range of restaurants to try at Downtown Disney. We all need time away from the theme parks and what better way to do that than spending some time shopping in the Marketplace or partying at Pleasure Island and stopping to enjoy some good food?
Tip: Save Time Ordering at Restaurants
Don't forget to think about when you might have late nights -- perhaps you'll be taking advantage of Evening Extra Magic Hours at one of the Disney parks? Well, the last thing you want to do is schedule a breakfast the next morning at a too-early time, especially if you're going to have to allow time to get to your restaurant as well. Deciding to book a character breakfast at the Crystal Palace at 8:00 am, when we were staying at Saratoga Springs and would be out until nearly the night before at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party meant we didn't get much sleep that night!
One thing to remember when you're trying to work out your restaurant bookings is that you don't want to miss some of the great attractions that Disney has to offer. Many of them run continuously, but there are some that only take place at certain times. We made the mistake on one vacation of planning most of our dinners for between 7:30 and 8:30 in the evening, which meant we only had one or two opportunities to see IllumiNations at Epcot, which was showing at 9:00 nightly. It's a mistake we haven't made since and fortunately, it's something Disney has taken into account.
They now publish their theme park opening hours, along with details of nightly firework shows, evening parades, such as SpectroMagic at the Magic Kingdom and the afternoon parades in the Magic Kingdom, Disney's Hollywood Studios and Disney's Animal Kingdom six months ahead, so by the time you go to make any dining plans, you'll also have a good idea of what will be on and when during your stay. So if parades or fireworks are important to you and your family, you can ensure that your dining plans don't interfere with your plans to see these great Disney traditions. Details of Extra Magic Hours will also be published at this time, so you can decide if you either want to avoid those parks on the days they open early or late or whether you want to take full advantage of the additional hours.
Planning meals at six months out is certainly daunting and it's not something many people are used to. You don't have to phone up on the 180 day mark exactly though, especially if you're happy to make your choices between a few different restaurants. The most popular ones that tend to fill up first are those with characters, dinner at Boma at the Animal Kingdom Lodge and dinner at Le Cellier in Epcot -- now rumored to be the most popular place to dine on Disney property.
Once you've made your bookings though, you know that you have a restaurant you can enjoy on a particular day. If you want to change your mind nearer the time of your vacation, you can always see if you make a booking somewhere else and then go back and cancel your original. However, if you do find that everywhere is full, you've got the consolation of knowing that you planned far enough ahead to get into that restaurant you really wanted to experience.
