When I arrived at Rangoon Central Station before departure time, the train that would take me to Bagan was ready to set off for its 20 hour journey. It was an eight-carriage train with upper-, second- and ordinary-class cars and only one sleeper.
Even though the train line to the ancient city 430 miles north of Rangoon has been running since the early 2000s, the idea to take a ride had never crossed my mind, given the often-delayed arrival and departure times of the train. Hopefully that wouldn't happen now.
While onboard, the carriages were teaming with upcountry-bound passengers, mostly local people. Foreigners were spotted only in the sleeper car, which was also occupied by some locals. I shared my compartment with a Burmese family.
When walked from the sleeper to ordinary class, a childhood memory of 20 years ago came alive. People were cramped inside the carriage, sitting on wooden benches. Some who couldn't find a seat were just standing in the aisles as hawkers waded around them. When the night time came, they slept on their seats or the floor.
Looking out the windows, the typical upcountry scene of toddy palm groves and small villages came into view and the air was refreshing. But, I have to admit, the ride was bumpy. I had a difficult time to hold still my beer mug.
After an overnight ride and around noon next day, the train came into Bagan Station, a brick building with some resemblance of the architecture of temples in the ancient city. The ticket-seller had told me I would be in Bagan around lunch time. My watch indicated it was 11: 50. Not bad.
enjoyed your article sleeper train from rangoon to pagan – would appreciate thoughts from others, whether the service should be MODERNISED or let it be as is, but bring in the steam locomotives as it was. What is the need to change for change can we not let some remain as it was.
To me it brings back memories of a different era, which gets lost????
Thanks again
Twenty miles per hour is the standard regime is offering tourists. Everyone in myanmar serve as president of myanmar. As long as you have guns and bullets, you qualify to be high ranking persons in myanmar.
The speed of a turtle may be faster than Myanmar regime's express train.

MOSCOW (AP) - Russia's president says a deadly bombing at Moscow's busiest airport today looks like "a terror attack."
The explosion tore through the international arrivals hall at Domodedovo (DOH'-muh-DYED'-uh-vuh) Airport, killing more than 30 people and wounding about 130.
Russia's state news agency cites law enforcement sources saying the blast may have been caused by a suicide bomber.
President Dmitry Medvedev has ordered authorities to boost security at Moscow's two other commercial airports, the city's subway system and other transportation facilities. In a televised briefing, Medvedev told officials that security regulations had been breached and preliminary indications are that terrorists were responsible.
Amateur video posted on YouTube shows the terminal engulfed by smoke, with a pile of bodies in one section. Other bodies and luggage were scattered around the floor, and several small fires were burning.

Ehh The colors are really pretty, but they are really sticky and my hair gets stuck to my lips all the time when I am wearing it (I really hate that). October 17, 2014
taste weird Its got weird taste and why is not dollar? It should be. October 4, 2014
Too Sticky This lip gloss is too sticky. I have long hair and when I wore this lip gloss and the wind blew my hair would get stuck and become a mess. October 4, 2014

President Barack Obama signed into law Tuesday the Water Resources Reform and Development Act, which contains a provision that could prevent the widespread removal of trees and bushes from levees in Fort Wayne and throughout the country.
The House and Senate approved the legislation, which would spend $12.3 billion and fund 34 water infrastructure projects, in bipartisan votes.
The law includes a provision drafted by Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-3rd, that would eliminate earlier guidance by the Army Corps of Engineers to remove woody vegetation from earthen flood barriers nationwide. The Army Corps believes tree roots can weaken levees.
Stutzman's provision requires the Army Corps to assess vegetation removal on a case-by-case basis that considers "regional characteristics, habitat for species of concern, and levee performance."
Fort Wayne's city government maintains 10 miles of mostly wooded levees along the St. Marys, St. Joseph and Maumee rivers. Stutzman has said clearing Fort Wayne's levees of trees and bushes could cost the city $25 million.
The water resources law also will deepen the Boston Harbor and the Port of Savannah, Ga., and restore the Florida Everglades, Obama said Tuesday at a signing ceremony at the White House.

280 Miracle Mile
Coral Gables, FL 33134
Category: Performing Arts Venues
Region: South Dade
What did we learn during the holidays? Politics and turkey certainly do not mix, especially in the wake of a divisive presidential election. However, opposing political viewpoints and holiday ham work remarkably well onstage, particularly in Robin Baitz's Other Desert Cities. Set in Palm Springs, California, Baitz's critically acclaimed 2011 play unfolds over Christmas dinner with the Wyeths, a fictional family with GOP ties and more skeletons in its closet than Penn State University. But when daughter Brooke presents her parents, Polly and Lyman, with a gift — a manuscript of the memoir she's written — those skeletons come to light. And Mom and Dad are none too happy. "Momentarily you buy into certain clichés: Oh, that's the hippie drunk aunt. This is the mother that can't love, that's frozen in her social self-consciousness," actress Rachel Griffiths, who played Brooke in Other Desert Cities on Broadway, told Playbilllast year. "And all the stereotypes exist momentarily, only to be dismantled to find three human and relatable people."
Wednesdays, 2 & 8 p.m.; Thursdays-Saturdays, 8 p.m. Starts: Jan. 16. Continues through Feb. 10, 2013

I just filtered my last batch on Monday. It caught a lot of loose hops and other matter. That being said, when I drained the wort into carboy, it was straight from boil pot, into funnel with strainer and then into carboy. It left a foamy head when I put the airlock on. Two days later I had a big mess inside my fermenter chamber,not sure if this was the cause, but it was the first time. I liked doing the straining part, but maybe next time I'll put a hoe on the bottom of the fumnnel so I get no splashing into the carboy
"Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"
Well I primary in a bucket so I have never had a blow out that way. The only blow out I had was a ferocious IPA I did primary in a 6 gal carboy. What a mess. Either I don't make explosive brews or it's the carboy way of fermentation.
I listened to a podcast with Jamil and Palmer and they both recommend leaving as much trub behind as you can. I use whirlpooling followed by a 30 minute rest
I use 2 mesh balls for my pellet hops--some call it a tea ball, or a spice ball, or a hop ball. Both of them easily hold 3/4oz and leave plenty of room for expansion. 1oz and it turns into a solid ball of mush, so I have to be careful. For transferring to primary, I use a filter screen on the inside of my kettle on the weldless conversion. I put a LARGE strainer (sanitized, of course) in the top of my brew bucket. I also just picked up a reusable fine-mesh nylon filter that I'll use in conjunction with the strainer. This system will allow me to keep ALL the wort without all the trub. It also works to aerate the beer before pitching the yeast.
As far as extra work, I don't think it's significant. I load the hops into the s/s mesh balls and dunk them into my kettle for the boil at their respective times. The boil pushes the wort into and around the hop balls and gets adequate utilization based on what I can tell. The filter screen is inside the kettle and filters without any work from me. The strainer in the bucket takes approximately 2 seconds to grab off my sanitized drying rack and drop in the top of my bucket.
I'm happy with the results and will continue to strain my beer.
I have only done 2 brews so far, so my sample size isn't great but, I have been decided to try a strainer for the transfer. For the first brew I just tried to pour slowly to keep the trub from making its way into the fermenter, and it was a huge pain resulting in a ton of trub that I feel like caused me to leave a ton of beer in the fermenter when transferring to the bottling bucket.
The second brew I jury rigged a strainer from a colander and my sanitized grain but it filled up so quickly that this process seemed to take for ever. I bought a strainer to use for my 3rd brew, so we'll see how it works out.
Is there any real benefit to having a ton of trub in the fermenter?
Why not make filtering a moot point and use a fine mesh straining bag to keep most of the hop matter from getting into you wort in the first place? I started doing this on my third batch, and won't go back to not using one. I still get some sediment in the bottom of my kettle. More often than not I dump sediment and all into the primary with no ill effects.

Ten years ago, when I got a job managing a farmers' market, a friend scoffed, "Nobody grows food around here anymore!"
"Well," I countered, confused and uncertain, "at least 10 people do, and they're bringing their food to the city every Saturday."
Today that market is bursting at the seams, with almost 60 vendors and thousands of weekly visitors. Across the country, the number of operating farmers' markets has more than doubled in the past decade. More and more Americans are growing their own vegetables at home, including First Lady Michelle Obama. And new artisanal-food and local-food ventures keep launching, even in this stricken economy.
I don't run the market anymore, but I watch from the sidelines, impressed. I couldn't have imagined that so many people would become familiar with fresh, locally grown food. I had no clue that locavorism would become so popular that both McDonald's and Walmart would appropriate the idea, proclaiming which of their ingredients and products were locally sourced.
Will this love for fresh food last? Or will "local" soon be forgotten, the next victim of fashion?
Olestra pancakes with backyard zucchini, anyone?
When I was growing up in the 1970s, the back-to-the-land movement was vacuuming people out of cities and depositing them in the country. I played with homesteaders made of plastic, pushing the long-haired mom and dad of the Sunshine Family on a pedal-powered family tricycle, helping the dolls move their garden tools over patches of grass in the yard.
I wasn't aware of the community gardens that were springing up in many cities. Or the 1973 oil crisis that spiked food prices and drove people to plant vegetable gardens. Or the food-safety problems caused by widespread pollution, chemicals, and contaminants allowed by a weak FDA.
I didn't know that the city nearest to me — Troy, New York — was making Troy-Bilt rototillers (90,000 of them in 1978 alone) and helping people pursue food self-sufficiency with these machines. Garden Way, the Troy-Bilt parent company, also published books to show customers how to use their products. (The books are now published by Storey Publishing.)
I've learned all this in the last few years, as I've gotten more interested in gardening and preserving food. My local library has books both old and new on these topics; digging deeper, I've found scholarly titles on the back-to-the-land movement that trace the term all the way back to the late 1800s and early 1900s. I knew that my generation didn't invent gardening, but learning that we didn't invent urban agriculture — well, that was a shock.
Will the current interest in DIY and local food production last? It's hard to directly compare the very urban growth of CSA memberships and farmers' markets with the very rural trend in the 1970s of going off the grid entirely, leaving both society and commerce behind.
Yes, plenty of people are food-swapping and yard-sharing and otherwise bracing themselves for a time when time is a more valuable commodity than cold hard cash. But this grow-it-yourself moment is largely rooted in the commercial market. After all, people who identify with the modern movement for fresh foods can be as gaga about what they can buy as what they can make themselves.
Of course, the urban-homesteading strand of this great big love for fresh is less affected by consumer choices. Still, many people who are devoted to fresh are happy to be part of the retail loop. And that's not necessarily a bad thing; it might even make it more sustainable than the idea-driven leaps of yore.
The question of the market's role came up recently while talking with a friend who has worked at two prominent farms in New York: Stone Barns and Hawthorne Valley. Sara Worden is an artist and a young farmer. When I asked her to compare the 1970s and now, she said that her generation is more market-driven. People are growing for markets, she said, choosing where to farm based on where they can sell. If they are going back to the land, they are doing so with monetary sustenance, not just self-sufficiency, in mind.
Another conversation developed at a food swap.
"I think that there was a sense in the 1970s of removing yourself from society when you did this," said Dianna Goodwin, who described herself as a former dilettante homesteader. "This whole thing about leaving mainstream consumer society — that's just not there now. Some people who are moving out to the country are probably doing something more like that, but they're also more market-oriented, which is good. You need to be able to support yourself."
I carry these thoughts with me as I tour the farmers' market and watch the exchanges of money, food, and friendship. Even in a recession, and with new farmers' markets opening up nearby, the piles of vegetables and bread start tall and vanish by day's end. In the crowd, I see older couples who used to keep big gardens. They never lost their taste for homegrown tomatoes, even if they aren't growing them at home anymore.
Maybe awakened taste buds are all that the love for fresh food needs to survive.
Amy Halloran lives in upstate New York with her two sons, husband, and nine chickens. They garden their six city lots to have food for most seasons.
When I was a kid our coldceller was huge. We grew a very large garden and had several fruit trees. It seems newer houses are built around the grocery store idea of buying what you need weekly and storing in fridges and freezers. Maybe we need to go back in time.
Good ideas never go out of style. Checked our blog site. Nice work!

FoldaCover G4 Elite and Bedslide SR10 Review
I just had a FoldaCover G4 Elite and a Bedslide SR10 installed by the great guys over at Rowell's in Indian Trail, NC. I have been drooling over these for the last 8 months, and I finally bought them. I own a 2011 MGM Tacoma Shortbed Sport.
I perform service, sales and calibrations to water flow meters for a living. I spend a lot of time on the road, and I need to have as much parts and equipment as possible, because I am usually a couple of hundred miles from my office.
Sometimes I have to haul a refrigeration unit, which is about 3 1/2 feet tall, so a solid tonneau would have been worthless for me.
I bought the Bedslide because I don't want to have to crawl into my bed when I need to get something out of one of my totes. The Bedslide will also make a nice platform for when I need a work bench to repair equipment.
Here is my review.
First, the G4 looks awesome. Smooth, streamlined, and secure. I love the look of this set-up.
I really like the keyed locking mechanism. I went with the G4 over the Bakflip for this reason alone. The Bakflip has a locking mechanism that can only be opened from the inside. I planned to install a locking system in my tailgate that would run off of the OEM doorlock circuit, but if that failed, I'd have to cut into the Bakflip. This concerned me enough to go with the G4.
One awesome feature of the G4 is that the front of the cover folds open, and has its own lock. I think that this is awesome. I am attaching a hook above the wheelwell to hold my hardhat, which is always a pain in the ass to stow.
The latch mechanism is pretty beefy. This is about as secure as you can get. Nothing is 100% secure, but this is very good.
The latch locks into a post mounted on the side of the bed. The existing factories holes are used for the mounting of the post.

The inner latches of the tonneau are latched onto brackets that are mounted via the factory siderail system. Note: you still have full access to the rail system, except for the spots where the tonneau's brackets are mounted.
When fully folded, the FoldaCover sits flat near the cab of the truck. I like this better than the Bakflip, which sits standing up against the back window of the cab. I can still see out of my back window, and I have nothing slapping the back of my cab when I'm driving with the tonneau open.
The G4 comes with a tailgate lock. It's simple but effective. The tonneau has a plate shaped like an upside down L mounted on the rear panel near the tailgate. This L shaped plate folds down with the tonneau panel, and slides behind a D shaped bracket mounted to the tailgate. The tailgate will not open when the FoldaCover is closed.
I did not take a picture of it, but the weather stripping on the very rear of the tonneau that keeps water from coming in over the tailgate is mounted with a very thin strip of adhesive. When the tonneau is hot, the weather strip detaches itself from the tonneau. If you touch the weather strip, it will come loose. I am going to have to get down with some Liquid Nails, or another kind of adhesive to keep the weather stripping from falling off. I guess that this is my biggest gripe of the G4.
Now onto the Bedslide.
I am really impressed with the sturdiness and ease of use when rolling the Bedslide in and out. It is rated for 1200 pounds, so I know that it can handle the 150 pounds that I have piled on it. There is still room behind the wheelwells, where I plan to mount a rechargable flashlight, and fire extinguisher.
The Bedslide has has a heavy duty handle and locking system. You can tell that its a quality product.
It has 3 locking positions, so you don't have to pull it out all the way if you don't need to. Here is what the Bedslide looks like fully extended.
All in all, I am very happy with my purchase. It wasn't cheap, and there are less pricey alternatives and knock-offs, but you get what you pay for. I plan on using the Bedslide and tonneau for the next 10 years and probably install them on my next truck.
I give both a big thumbs up.
I do plan to get that bedslide a while back ago, how much are they? and how strong is it?
The Bedslide website says that it can take up to 1200 lbs, which I believe.
Haha ur bed cubbie is broke too. My buddy just put the foldacover on his tundra and loves it. I really want one.
Hey JungleFighter sweet setup you got there bro! Looks like it'll definitely be put to good use.
will this work with a bed extender?
Have you tested how well this keeps water out? I'm still torn on what/if any cover I want for my bed. I need something for when I take road trips to keep luggage secure/dry but don't want give up hauling space when I need it. So a solid tonneau cover wont work for me. I like the idea of the soft/folding covers but they seem to be leak prone from what i've read.
I love the Fold-a-covers. But compared to the Extang, Bak, or Flex, to get quick access to the full bed, the FAC is a PITA to take apart that front hinge and reassemble it to take it on/off. When/If Extang gets the Encore done for the Tacoma will remedy this.
Nice equipment though regardless. I have sold Bedslide before. Right now I do CargoEase and some JottoSlide.
After hard Carolina summer storms, I will have a few splash marks from single drips on my Bedslide, but that's it.
Thanks for the info. I'm definitely interested in this cover! Wish it was easier to take completely off, seems like the only downside.
From having done the entire installation myself I can say that the cover can be removed with ease. You are looking at removing 4 bolts and there is no re-alignment necessary during the re-install.
As for water seepage, because I have not experienced the rainy season yet, I cannot say. While I am sure it is not 100% water tight, based on what I see as possible areas of seepage, cargo will stay dry and whatever water does comes in will wind up under my cargo mat anyways so it won't be like my stuff is sitting in a puddle. I would say weatherproof enough to keep luggage clean and dry for road trips.
The only improvement I like to see is for a smaller gap between the top of the tailgate and the cover panel as that would improve security. Right now the weather strip seal that covers the gap is wider than I'd like.
Bob....thanks alot for the write up and especially pics. I am in the process of researching covers and really considering this one.
hows it holding up with everyday use? i am about to buy this but in my kind of work i will be opening it and closing it ever single day and i need a cover that will be able to withstand it and still maintain its security and functionality
I've had a Fold-A-Cover G4 for about 8 months and it's proven to be very trouble free so far. I open mine 2-3 times a week to haul building material. I really like how easy it is to fold and stack against the cab. While you don't get full bed access, I have no problem with lumber or plywood.
I installed it myself, and it was a bit of a PITA. 2 people would make the job much easier.
We've had some really heavy rains and I never noticed more than small drips, so I wouldn't hesitate to carry luggage or boxes. I agree with the comment about the rear seal adhesive being pretty weak. Both ends of my seal came loose within a couple of months. I used Gorilla Glue to reattach them and so far it's holding up fine. Liquid nails or silicone adhesive would work too.
Overall, I love the cover. It looks good, is built really well and seems relatively secure. If someone was determined to break in, I'm sure they could, but out of sight, out of mind...
Hey Bob, how much was the cover itself? Great Write-Up BTW.
^ I paid $730 shipped from http://www.foldacoverfactorystore.com/home.php
quick shipping....at my door 3 days later
Cool, Thanks for the info!
your welcome
I have the same cover and have nothing to add. The best part for me is the locking portion at the cab, it is perfect and why I went with this cover. I keep a couple of bin boxes at the front of the bed and I just toss stuff from the cab in, lock the cover and forget forget about it.

text: Sen. Sessions: House Last Line of Defense for American Workers Against Amnesty Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 17 Jan 2014 post a comment On Friday, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) said the House was the last line of defense for the millions of Americans whose wages and livelihood will be put at risk by amnesty and comprehensive immigration reform. He urged House Republicans to put the interests of American workers ahead of those of the consultant class, lobbyists, and Democrats who want cheaper labor and more potential votes. House Republican leaders are preparing to unveil their "immigration principles" which will include amnesty provisions that the Congressional Budget Office determined would lower the wages of American workers. Sessions, the ranking Member of the Budget Committee, said that Obama and Senate Democrats have "uniformly embraced an immigration plan that would devastate wages and working conditions for millions of struggling Americans to benefit a small cadre of lobbyists and CEOs." He added that their plan "doubles the flow of immigrant workers, adds another 30 million new permanent residents to compete for every job, and guarantees illegal immigration will continue permanently in the future." Sessions warned the House to not pass comprehensive immigration reform in everything but name only, which is what Obama has desired and Rep. Luis Gutierrez's (D-IL) has said his "Republican friends" do as well. "House Republican leaders must dismiss the whispers of the consultant class, the pleadings of the business lobby, and the pressure campaign from the activists who believe illegal immigration is a civil right," Sessions said. "It would be tragic if the Leader's immigration principles were simply a 'piecemeal' repackaging of the Senate plan." Sessions said Republicans must "embrace the national interest" first by "placing its first emphasis on helping millions of Americans transition from welfare and unemployment to work and rising wages." "In so doing, the GOP will not only aid struggling workers from all backgrounds, but will recapture the trust and faith of millions of Americans who have turned away from the party," he said. "Such clear and convicted action would also expose the influence special interests groups have wielded over the White House and Senate Democrats from day one. The House now stands alone as the last line of defense for millions of working Americans that form the backbone of the nation." He added that a "sound immigration plan will help both citizens and immigrants alike—reducing unemployment, promoting assimilation into the middle class, and ensuring the consistent and faithful application of the law upon which our national greatness depends."
