The Crystal & Fantasy Caves are Bermuda's top visitor attraction for some very spectacular reasons. The caves feature deep, clear underground pools of azure blue water and incredible formations of every size and shape imaginable.
2 reviews
Toured both sets of caves. $22 for one or $30 for both. Really interesting. I visited Bermuda about 7 years ago and didn't even know they existed. Beautiful.

Increasing Pedestrian Safety and Mobility in Suburban Areas
Design and construction of a particular path depends on its intended usage and projected user population. Most are constructed of asphalt and measure 8-to-10 feet wide, generally considered the standard width for bike paths. Because of Bernards' relatively low population and limited activity, Messina was comfortable using more narrow paths in some locations and, in fact, found them preferable because they create less impervious surface and motorists would be less likely to confuse them for roads.
Most of the pathway system has been located or planned on property that the township either owns or has right-of-way for a path. In some cases, the township will need to acquire property. When completed, the paths will provide a township-owned system located entirely on publicly owned property.
When asked for suggestions he would offer other interested communities, Messina said "just do it," adding "local people know the community and they are the best ones to come up with a plan." When forming a plan, Messina suggested coming up with a priority system and taking "baby steps," noting that he had presented his plan as a 10-year project which was "was more palatable to the governing body." He also suggested taking advantage of developer agreements. Large sections of the Bernards pathway
system were constructed by developers who agreed to build or contribute to the construction of the pathway system where it passed near their properties.
The true success of any program is measured in results. Messina recalled how parents in one Bernards neighborhood never felt comfortable permitting their children to go out trick or treating on Halloween due to heavy traffic and safety concerns. Since the pathway system was completed through their neighborhood, parents now feel more comfortable. "Now people can be seen walking and biking in that neighborhood," Messina said. "They are really using the paths; it has changed their lifestyle."

The Azlan Shah Cup triumph and a runners-up appearance in the Punjab Gold Cup, a new man at the helm in the national team and an acrimonious power struggle in the game's governing body are the highlights of a year gone by that saw India's resurgence in world hockey.
If 2008 was a black spot in the history of Indian hockey, 2009 can be seen as a ray of hope for the game's revival with the national teams producing mixed bag results to rekindle expectations of happier days ahead.
After failing to qualify for the Beijing Olympics for the first time in eight decades last year, the eight-time Olympic champions India started its redemption journey in 2009 to show the world that the land, which produced greats like Dhyanchand, still has the skills to succeed and all they need is some fine-tuning and support from the administrators.
With support from the government and the ad-hoc body formed after the suspension of the erstwhile KPS Gill-backed Indian Hockey Federation, Indian men's team started the year on a positive note under interim coach Harendra Singh, drawing 2-2 in an away Test series against Argentina.
The Indians continued their success story, finishing runners-up in the inaugural four-nation Punjab Gold Cup in Chandigarh which featured strong teams like Holland, the eventual winners, Spain and Germany.
India, thereafter, defeated New Zealand 2-0 in the four-Test away series and then followed it up with clinical 3-1 win over Malaysia in the final to register their fourth Azlan Shah title, a tournament which they won after a gap of 13 years.
Earlier, India had won the title in 1985, 1991 and in 1995.
But after the high came a low as needing an outright win to book a place in the semi-finals of the eighth Asia Cup in Kuantan, India squandered a two-goal lead to settle for a 2-2 draw against China and see their title defence go up in smoke.
In between, the game's ad-hoc administrators' search for a foreign coach finally ended with the appointment of Jose Brasa, who led the Spain women's team to gold in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics in May.
Off the turf, there was very little consistency in the game's administration with the Suresh Kalmadi-led Indian Olympic Association controlling hockey affairs, which prompted the State associations to go up in arms against IOA's stubborn attitude.
With pressure mounting from the International Hockey Federation (FIH) to constitute a democratically elected single body to run the game in the country or else lose the hosting right of next year's World Cup and also participation rights in FIH events, the IOA finally formed Hockey India.
But even though the power struggle was going on at full swing as to who will take over the game's administration in the country, Brasa went about his business of resurrecting the Indian team and took the national side to a number of exposure trips, that included a four-nation European and Canada tour.
But just before the European tour, the Indian team received a setback when first choice goalkeeper Baljit Singh suffered a career-threatening eye injury after he was struck by a golf ball during a national camp in Pune.
No sooner the incident took place, the newly-formed Hockey India and Sports Ministry pressed into action and sent the Chandigarh lad to the United States for treatment at the expense of the government.
On the ground, Indian men trounced Canada 6-0 in a seven-Test away series but the year ended on a disappointing note when India went down to Pakistan in the semi-finals of the Champions Challenge I in Salta, Argentina and lost the chance to qualify for next year's Champions Trophy in Monchengladbach, Germany.
India, however, defeated hosts Argentina to win the bronze medal as New Zealand beat Pakistan to emerge champions.
India still has a chance to qualify for the Champions Trophy but for that they will have to finish within the top three in February 28-March 13 slated World Cup here.
On the women's front, notwithstanding administrative issues and lack of assistance, the eves bid a splendid farewell to the year by booking their place in next year's World Cup in Rosario, Argentina.
The Indian eves defeated formidable South Korea 3-2 to enter the final of the Asia Cup in Bangkok but lost to China in the title clash to finish second.
On the individual front, veteran striker Prabhjot Singh and Surinder Kaur found some recognition when they were selected in the FIH All Star squads.
While Prabhjot has found a place among world's top 18 men players to be coached by Australian hockey legend Ric Charlesworth, Surinder has been named in the FIH All Star women's team.
All in all, the year gone by has set things in motion for the resurgence of the national game and next year's World Cup at home will provide an ideal platform for the eight time Olympic champions to earn back their place at the international stage.

The candidates for the Democratic nomination for the US Senate race in Connecticut took aim at Linda McMahon during their first official debae last night. All three candidates--William Tong, Susan Bysiewicz and current Democratic favorite Chris Murphy--said they believed Linda would win the Republican nomination over Christopher Shay and gave their arguments for why they would be most likely to beat her.
Murphy said, "What I believe is Linda McMahon is going to be the candidate and she ultimately is going to have $50 million to spend. I may be up on Linda McMahon by a couple of points in the polls today, but I'm still going to run a race like I'm 20 points behind."

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — A spokesman for Illinois' football program says coach Tim Beckman doesn't plan to reprimand players who wore American Indian headdresses and face paint at a charity event. However, Beckman will talk to the team about the situation.
Kent Brown said Tuesday that Beckman will remind the team about "the sensitivity of the issue on our campus."
Illinois faced NCAA sanctions until it retired the Chief Illiniwek mascot in 2007. Some native Americans said the mascot was offensive.
Brown said the Friday charity event at Memorial Stadium was organized by the student group Uplifting Athletes and not team sanctioned. Beckman was not there.
Much of the football team was at the event. One group wore headdresses. A group photo was posted to the Fighting Illini Facebook page, but later taken down.

Found February 22, 2013 on The Sports Bank:
PLAYERS: Danica Patrick
Danica Patrick and crew chief Tony Gibson learned what they needed to learn, then played it safe and finished 17th in their Budweiser Duel qualifying race Thursday at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway. The Budweiser Duel consists of twin qualifying races that set the 43-car field for the season-opening Daytona 500, but Danica Patrick was already locked into the Great American Race. She will start from the pole for the 55th Daytona 500, as she set the fastest lap in qualifying last Sunday, which locked her into the No. 1 starting position. Danica Patrick, driver of the No. 10 GoDaddy.com Chevrolet SS for Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR), had nothing to gain in the Budweiser Duel other than experience and information. She got both, starting on the pole and staying up front for the first 10 laps of the 60-lap race around the 2.5-mile superspeedway. After learning how her car performed in the draft, she dropped to the rear of the field to avoid any potential accidents, ensuring that the sa...

Inquest jury to hear from Seattle officer who killed Clemmons
The Seattle police officer who shot and killed Maurice Clemmons will break his public silence Monday when he tells an inquest jury what happened in the quiet South Seattle neighborhood where he came face-to-face with the man who gunned down four police officers in November.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Shooting inquest
The hearing is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Monday in courtroom 815, King County Courthouse, 516 Third Ave. in Seattle. The public is welcome.
The Seattle police officer who shot and killed Maurice Clemmons will break his public silence Monday when he tells an inquest jury what happened in the quiet South Seattle neighborhood where he came face-to-face with the man who gunned down four police officers in November.
Officer Benjamin L. Kelly, along with other Seattle officers and a doctor with the King County Medical Examiner's Office, will testify during a fact-finding hearing that will determine whether the shooting was justified. King County District Court Judge Arthur Chapman will preside. Testimony will begin Monday afternoon.
Inquests often are called after fatal officer-involved shootings to determine whether the officer acted properly.
King County Executive Dow Constantine ordered the inquest into Clemmons' slaying in January.
Inquests are fact-finding trials before a six-person district-court jury. At the end of testimony, the jury is asked to answer questions generated by the judge, a deputy county prosecutor and attorneys for the police and the slain person's family, if the family chooses to participate.
The main question posed is whether an officer feared for his or her life when deadly force was used.
If a jury finds deadly force was unnecessary, the findings will be forwarded to the Prosecutor's Office to determine whether criminal charges are necessary. The jury does not have to be unanimous in its decision.
Chapman, said the inquest into Clemmons' slaying is of particular interest to the public and media because the case is so high profile. Security officials say there will be an added presence outside the courtroom.
Chapman said he expects the inquest to last two days and feature testimony from Kelly, Officer Daina Boggs, Detective Russ Weklych and Dr. Aldo Fusaro of the King County Medical Examiner's Office. Boggs was the first patrol officer at the scene after Clemmons was shot.
The family of the person slain can have an attorney question witnesses at inquest hearings, but it's unclear if Clemmons' family will have legal representation, court officials said.
On Nov. 29, Clemmons walked into a Parkland, Pierce County, coffee shop and opened fire at a table of Lakewood police officers. Killed were Sgt. Mark Renninger and Officers Ronald Owens, Tina Griswold and Greg Richards.
Richards managed to wound Clemmons, 37.
The shooting ignited an intense, two-day manhunt that ended when Kelly encountered Clemmons at 2:45 a.m. in the 4400 block of South Kenyon Street. Kelly had stopped to investigate a parked silver 1990 Acura Integra with its hood raised. The engine was running, and nobody was inside.
Police believe Clemmons had stolen the car, which broke down about five blocks from where it had been taken.
As Kelly sat in his patrol car writing a report on the stolen car, he noticed a man approaching the driver's side of the patrol car from behind, police said. Kelly got out of his car and immediately recognized Clemmons, police said.
"He ordered the person to stop. He ordered the person to show his hands. That person would not show his hands, and also began to run away counterclockwise around the vehicle," Seattle Assistant Chief Jim Pugel said shortly after the shooting.
Kelly again told Clemmons to stop, and he didn't comply, Pugel said.
As the officer drew his gun, Clemmons "reached into his waist area and moved," the department said in a written statement. The officer then fired several shots at Clemmons, striking him at least twice, the statement said.
A handgun was found in a front pocket of a sweat shirt Clemmons was wearing, police said. A check of the serial number showed the gun belonged to one of the Lakewood police officers, Pugel said.
Kelly never has spoken publicly about the shooting; a source has said he wanted the focus to remain on the slain Lakewood officers.
Six relatives and friends of Clemmons' have been charged with helping the man elude police after the killings.
A seventh suspect, Darcus Allen, who drove Clemmons away from the coffee shop, has been charged with four counts of aggravated first-degree murder.
Information from Seattle Times archives is included in this report.

Real Madrid are set to welcome centre-back Pepe back to training this week, as the Portuguese enters the final stages of his recovery.
The 29-year-old underwent a surprise surgical procedure on his ankle at the turn of the year after tests revealed that was the best course of action to treat his discomfort.
Handed a four-to-five-week recovery period, Pepe is reportedly entering the final stages of his recovery and is expected to rejoin training from as early as Tuesday's session.
The defender is in line to return to full fitness and match preparations in time for next week's Champions League Last 16 first leg clash with Manchester United.

New Queen Album Featuring Unreleased Freddie Mercury Material is Now Official
A new Queen album – the first of original material in two decades – had been considered at the end of 2013, and as of today, the release now looks to be official.
Guitarist Brian May discussed plans, which included revisiting demos and recordings featuring Freddie Mercury, in December 2013. Now, May, in an interview with BBC Wales Radio, revealed that Mercury's vocals, taken from previously unreleased tracks, have been reworked.
Talking about the project, May explained: "We found a few more tracks with Freddie singing and all of us playing and they are quite beautiful. People will be hearing this work towards the end of the year. We are going to put out an album which will probably be called 'Queen Forever.' It is a compilation but will have this material that nobody in the world has ever heard. I think people will really enjoy it."
Although Queen considers the album a compilation, it started, essentially, with fragments from '80s ballads. May tells listeners to expect a big sound – a feat that required a significant amount of work. He said: "It wouldn't have been if we hadn't have done this restoration job. We had to start from scratch because we only had scraps. But knowing how it would have happened if we had finished it, I can sit there and make it happen with modern technology."
Mays previously spoke about Mercury recording a duet with Michael Jackson and about going back to tracks produced by William Orbit in the 1980s. There's no word whether any of these cuts will make it onto the album.

Woodside to the sea
You know what I love about road biking? How much distance and elevation it enables me to cover during relatively small efforts. Some days, I like a good challenge. Others, I simply want to cover miles, view new scenery, and taste different air. Today I had errands in Palo Alto, so I decided to head to Woodside and point my road bike west. I had three hours, so today's goal was "what can I see in three hours?"
I rode up and over Skyline Ridge and down Tunitas Creek Road, a thin ribbon of pavement wending through the redwoods. The weather was almost unrealistically perfect. I was wearing a thin long-sleeved shirt and a pair of tights, and I was comfortable during both the climb and the descent — never hot nor cold. After seven miles of mostly coasting on a smooth surface amid a temperature equilibrium, I began to have a strange sensation that I wasn't even there — that I was somehow distant from this place, sitting on a stationary bicycle and watching tree trunks stream by on a movie screen.
That is, until I neared Highway 1. I could smell the honey sweetness of mustard fields in bloom, and taste pungent sea salt wafting on a light breeze. The sun emerged from a thin veil of clouds and cast the hillsides in rich light. I rode along the highway until my watch read 1:22, and then turned to find an overlook on the cliffs above the Pacific.
I found a place hidden in plain sight by a rusty old gate and a rough gravel entry. I sat and ate an Odwalla Bar, slowly so I could better taste the infusion of salt and savory ocean air. Waves crashed into the shoreline a hundred feet below the cliffs, distant enough to sound like purring. I watched a solo walker stroll barefoot across the sand. The baby blue Pacific yawned over the horizon, fading imperceptibly into the similarly blue sky. It was a peaceful place, and it made me feel happy, enough so that I could have laid there all day. It seemed strange that I ran a quick errand, rode my bike for ninety minutes, and somehow ended up here. So close and yet a world away.
Still, I only had three hours and a long way to climb, so I set back out toward the mountains. Up and up and up toward the crest of Skyline, then back to Woodside. It didn't seem like all that much work, which is why it was pleasantly surprising to upload my ride stats find out I rode
35 miles with 5,500 feet of climbing
. That kind of distance and elevation would take me the better part of a day to cover on foot, but the road bike makes it too easy. It almost feels like cheating — if it wasn't so wonderful.

What to do when you're an aspiring artist/musician who wants to make music in a climate in which seemingly everything interesting has already been done? Do you succumb to the demons of musical recycling, or do you take yourself to a desert island of creativity? Jeph Jerman chose the latter and came back with driftwood -- and shells and rocks and branches and pinecones and seedpods, tools the guitarist uses in his unique performance. That's it: no computers, no vocals, not even any amplification. It's as acoustic as a performer can get. The resulting sound is minimalist and haunting, if scratchy; the quieting, organic (in more ways than one) sounds combined with the laid-back vibe of the Cordell Taylor Gallery are sure to provoke conversation, and even some befuddled head-scratching from those who just don't "get it." Jerman performs on Thursday, May 22, as part of the gallery's Experimental Music Series; also featured is artist Harry Walters, whose work (which consists of "poking holes in walls") is part of the current exhibit, This Year's Model.

Books Of Audio
Yeah, just that far back. Like when classic rock was still fresh and new.
Anyways, I used to listen to audio books as a primary way to get my reading fix w/o going through the bother of opening a book (yeah, I had a lot of those phases back in the day). And I always made sure to listen to the unabridged versions of whatever book I was interested in. I really didn't like the Reader's Digest condensed books back in the day and I certainly didn't want to listen to books the same way.
Gradually, as my very mild form of OCD bubbled to the surface with a degree of frequency that to this day keeps me on my toes, audio books fell by the wayside, until by the early 90's the only time I would listen to a audio book was on my day off from working the overnight (I kept those same hours on my off days so that I wouldn't screw up my health). This was directly due to the fact that in the early 90's, there was diddly/squat on the t.v. and on the radio, so I had to find ways to entertain myself.
For the next couple of decades, no audio books were listened to, as my various OCD tainted routines took a firm grip on my brain and wouldn't let go. Every once in a blue moon, I would make an attempt at listening to one ("The National Road: A Ride Through Time" from the Ohio Historical Society springs to mind). But more often than not, they weren't for me.
Fast forward to 2014.
I do a lot of my grocery/non-grocery shopping at Ocean State Job Lot, and one of the many products that they carry is books, both audio and on-audio. Friends, if you ever wondered where most of the rejects/overstocks wind up, they wind up in stores like these, where you can save 60 to 75% off the cover price. They have a lot of unabridged audio books, originally priced between $19 and $35, selling for $3.99 a pop.
So I decide a couple of weeks ago to another crack of listening to audiobooks. After wading through titles by Glenn Beck (yeech!) and Tori Spelling (?!), I found a few titles worth investigating. More importantly, the titles I found were either stand alones or the first book in a short series.
Also, to make things really interesting, I decided to take another shot at reading YA (click here for my heartfelt opinion on YA) by purchasing a YA title.
So, here are the titles that I decided to buy. If anyone has an opinion on these authors, by all means, please let me know.
1} The Snow Spider by Jenny Nimmo: Book 1 of The Magician Trilogy (YA). Originally priced at $24.95/
2} Sons of Texas by Elmer Kelton (Western). Originally priced at $14.99.
3} Academ's Fury by Jim Butcher: Book 2 of The Codex Alera (Fantasy). Originally priced at $49.95, and if I had known it was #2 I wouldn't had purchased it. Oh and, it has 17 discs.
So, that's how I'm gonna expand my horizons this year. How 'bout you?

G.A.: Must be very short books. :D
Seriously though, that is impressive, in that an MP3 playing can squeeze it down to one or two discs.

I have a friend who keeps telling me about these new smartphone apps that will let you play audiobooks digitally. It saves your spot, you can speed it up/slow it down, and you can save a ton on your phone without need of discs. Very cool stuff. But CDs... I just can't do those. I don't even own a CD player anymore.

Glenn Beck and Tori Spelling?! Just shoot me now...
My little bro likes audio books, as with his vision issues, print can be difficult sometimes.

ABFtS: CD's I can do, since I have a player in my car, a player at work and three at home. 21 hours though, I think not.
M: Yup. As you know, I'm somewhat moderate in my Republican leanings, but Glenn Beck really turns my stomach (Rush does too, but that's another story). Tori Spelling is another actress I can't stand either.
Audio books are good for what ails you. :D

Every time I listen to an ad for Audible.com, I am sorely tempted to join. I can see myself easily spending a bundle on audiobooks. I have never listened to one, but I LOVE my podcast subscriptions. They're free. I think if I tried an audiobook once, I might be hooked for life, and that could get expensive.

S.R.: That is definitely the scary part of trying something new, getting hooked and having to spend gobs of money to feed the need.

This is definitely in the same family as Girl About Town. A fabulous bright fuschia blue-pink. I was torn between getting GAT, Impassioned, or Lustering. I ended up getting Lickable because of the cremesheen formula. It just feels so comfortable on my skin compared to frosts and lustres. It gives of a nice shine to it so I don't necessarily need to add gloss, but I do it anyway. Today I tried it with Extra Amps Dazzleglass and it looks great. Very fun face brightening color.

On my quest to expand my range of lipstick colors I decided to add pink for the spring/summer time. My first stop was MAC Hello Kitty Big Bow. Then I bought Girl about Town, but it was to intense for me. When I went to buy GAT I tried on Lickable but was determined to make GAT work. Now I've back to mac Big Bow cause the neonish pink color was not working for me and I got Lickable. I love it love it love it. It is a great true pink lipstick that is great for dark skin.

Lickable is a great lipstick! It applies like a dream and has phenomenal staying power. It has a nice sheen and looks like I applied a bit of gloss. Gorgeous color and is very bright but not OTT.

Lickable is what I wanted Sweet Thing l/s from the sugarsweet collection to be . Lickable is a very pigmented, beautiful blue toned pink that is perfect for ladies with pigmented lips. I've been looking for a pink that would show up on my lips w/o being too OTT and this is it. It's a creamsheen, and Sweet Thing is a lustre with very little pigment. Lickable was sold out at my local MAC counters so I had to order it online. Luckily it was in stock online. It looks great paired with Funtabulous or Love Alert dazzleglass.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
so when the new set of creamsheens came out i wasn't sure that any of them really appealed to me. but a friend convinced me to try this one along with lavender whip.
i never would have picked this up on my own, but i'm so so glad i did. it really pumped up my love for bright lippies.
it's a bright fuchsia color but somehow it totally works. and this may or may not be a good thing, depending on the person, but it leaves a subtle stain on your lips after it wears off which is nice for those who don't like an uneven wear on their lipsticks.
the color is just so great and the formulation is awesome. i would definitely buy this again. it's one of my favorite bold lipsticks.
also a little extra info, i swatched this at my nearest mac counter next to girl about town, and the two colors are very similar, but i found myself drawn to lickable a little more.
So, this is a permanent shade there's no need to rush to get and hoard. This is part of the Cremesheen line. I would describe this as a blue based FUSCHIA pink. It's awesome. I don't normally wear lipsticks because i just want my lips to be as low maintenance as possible because i like color on my lids. But this is the BOMB. I would gladly forego and wacky color on my lids for this baby. I think you might just need to get lip pencil to keep this baby in check because it does feather a little, but what lipstick doesn't? This doesn't make my teeth look yellow as it is blue based. And that's pretty good because I am a smoker and a coffee drinker.
This is my first pink lipstick ever.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is described on the MAC website as a clean blue pink. It's definitely a super bright pink, and not something I would've typically picked out. However, I wandered into the MAC store while at the mall, and tried this on. Another gal in the store shrieked in glee and said this looked beautiful on me. I topped it with Cremesheen Petite Indulgence and walked out of the store without buying it. My husband quickly did a double take as I walked out of the store to meet him and said my face looked like it had brightened up. I purchased this several days later. I've been trying to compare this to other lipsticks and think it's very similar to Max Factor's lipstick in #15, this smells much better however, as the Max Factor lipstick has a strong flowery scent. Again, I'm typically more of a nude lipgloss/neutral lipstick girl, but this pretty girly shade along with the compliments, made me pick it up. I'm an NC 35-40, so we'll see how it goes...

text: Is it normal for parents of 27 and 24 year old sons to fully finance every aspect of their life? They are still in college but it seems a little old to me for the parents to be paying for everything from car insurance to gas to tuition to rent to food to cell phones to car notes. Not to mention the parents step in for any and every problem they have? I wasn't raised like this so it seems a little strange to me.

As of summer 2013, there is an exciting project on board for HSS! Kathryn Olson, former HSS peer mentor for the Environmental Studies Team, learned about DeKalb County Community Gardens (DCCG) from her supervisor and decided to attend a meeting to see if it was something she would be interested in. After that meeting, she thought of the idea of HSS adopting and taking care of their own garden as a project of civic engagement. "The plan is for HSS to have a continuous and sustainable opportunity for volunteerism and also to educate students on the importance and benefits of locally grown food."
DCCG volunteers joined Kathryn to build, fill and plant four garden beds, located at Immanuel Lutheran Church, with a variety of vegetables and herbs including cucumbers, carrots, summber squash, peppers and basil. The crops harvested from the garden will be donated to community sites in need of fresh produce.
