... for the departure. To use an old clich�, you don't realise how much you've got, until you move, but can anyone answer this.
Because we'll be back here next year, and in the same place, some friends very kindly offered to look after anything we wanted to leave behind. Great! No point in bringing all those summer clothes and beach towels etc. back, to put them away and only get them out again to bring back here is there? This meant that one of the two ...

We left the restaurant with the familiar buzz of a � litre of wine in the body and braved the rain back to our room. It grew louder and heavier once we got inside and we decided to wait it out and watch a movie while we had a chance ...

Rain and more rain! Had great breakfast while we watched lightening across the lake this morning. It's lashing it down. Had relaxing start to day. Catching up with blog.

Was great to see more of the lake which is so beautiful with villas along most of the lake edge and the ret of the mountains are covered in lush vegetation.

About the Ticket Supplier: A.D. Players
A. D. Players, or After Dinner Players, was founded in 1967 by Jeannette Clift George. The troupe of part-time actors performed its first performance in 1968, and seven years later, in 1975, the Players created a Touring Company. In the late 1970s, the Players purchased the Grace theater building. Soon, the Touring Company was making an international performances, and the Players also established the Theater Arts Academy, originally providing drama classes to children. A. D. Players continued to grow through the early nineties, even expanding with the building of Saint Street Annex, which served as the new home for costume shop, Touring Company, rehearsal hall, and Theater Arts Academy. The company also started Houston's first year round children's theater at St. Luke's United Methodist Church Rotunda. In 1997, A. D. Players made their off-broadway debut of John His Story at Lamb's Theatre, New York City.
The future of A. D. Players is bright. In 2003, the company purchased over three aces of land in the Galleria area of Houston. The purchase of this land will enable A. D. Players to consolidate six current theater locations, including a 450-seat Mainstage Theater, a 300-seat Children's Theater, and a 150-seat Black Box Theater. This new facility, located in one of the top tourist destinations in Houston, will enable A. D. Players to continue serving the Houston community with its unique artistic signature of hope and faith.

Green is for go
You want to hit the road - but you've got a conscience. It's not easy but it is possible. Sean O'Grady offers a few sensible alternatives
Sunday 13 November 2005
The only truly environmentally friendly vacation, let us be honest, is one that is taken entirely on foot or by bicycle. That, however, is somewhat limiting, and doesn't widen your horizons very much even if you include a journey by (non-air) public transport.
In other words, it pretty much takes you back to the original Thomas Cook era of holidaymaking. His first excursions, if you recall, were from Leicester to elsewhere in Leicestershire. Unless you really dig Loughborough (and I do, as it happens) you'll have to make some compromises with your conscience. The good news is that there are ways that you can genuinely become kinder and gentler to the planet when taking time out on the road.
What should you drive? If you don't already own a car (full marks for greenness) and need to hire one, then you ought to go for one of the more efficient, smaller diesel models, which return excellent fuel economy and lower carbon dioxide emissions. The Citroën C2 is especially good, if you can find one. If you've got a large family, then much the same applies to your hired people-carrier (maybe not such good marks for greenness). Always go for the one that has the lowest CO 2 emissions, details of which you can find in the car magazines or on the manufacturers' websites.
Generally speaking, if you can find a car that dumps less than 130g of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere for every kilometre it travels, you're not doing too badly.
If you already own a car then you might still consider hiring a greener one - if only to see what it's like. Small diesel hatchbacks now have as much room, performance and versatility as a large family saloon of a decade ago. Better still, run your little diesel on Biodiesel fuel, if you can find it (although it is plentiful in Scandinavia). I am leaving aside motorbikes here, perhaps unfairly.
Why not embrace truly green technology? You could get yourself an electric car, but they tend to have a limited range and only make much sense as urban transport. LPG and natural gas-powered cars are compromised by a lack of filling stations. The most practical proposition is one of the new hybrid vehicles. These combine a petrol engine with an electric motor and store the power that is normally wasted by an internal combustion engine (when braking, for example), to use later on.
Models such as the Honda Civic IMA and Toyota Prius offer good economy as well, although they are more expensive to buy than their nearest equivalents. They are on a few hire fleets. Avis will let you have one if you happen to be in Portugal, and Enterprise has a few Priuses in the UK. Avis offers a scheme whereby customers can offset their carbon emissions by taking part in green projects. Hertz doesn't offer much that's green.
Where should you go? Not that far away. If the choice is between taking a flight or driving round Britain or Europe (getting there by ferry) it's a no-brainer. Your jet will have expended far more fuel than you could manage even with the most exuberant driving. According to Friends of the Earth, even if you fly only once a year you can generate a significant amount of greenhouse pollution - a passenger taking a long-haul return flight from the UK to the US can produce as much carbon dioxide as a motorist driving in the UK for a year (one heck of a touring holiday!).
For a typical journey of less than 500km, air travel comes off worst: the amount of CO 2 produced per passenger is 0.17kg/km for air travel; 0.14kg/km for travel by car; 0.052kg/km for rail; and 0.047kg/km by boat (ferry). If you're one of those people who hates cars but can't resist a cheap flight, those stats ought to make you examine your holiday plans.
The other points concerning driving destinations are fairly obvious; avoid congested places such as the Lake District, Cornwall, London and Oxford - and please don't go off-road, even where you're allowed to. Those SUVs and trail bikes have made a terrible mess of some bits of our countryside.
The last question is the one that is least asked: how to drive? Slowly - you want to enjoy the view. Simply stick to speed limits, avoid sharp acceleration and braking, turn off the air-conditioning and use the cruise control, if you have one. Plan your journey and buy a sat-nav device that might stop you wasting time and fuel getting lost.
Alternatively, you could just go by train or coach and plug your PlayStation 2 loaded with a Gran Turismo 4 game into the TV in your room. That way you can enjoy all the thrills of the rally or race circuit and save the planet.

Arizona Cardinals
NFL.com: Arizona Cardinals have 8th-best receiving corps
It's not just Larry Fizgerald.
The Arizona Cardinals receiving corps is certainly headlined by the six-time Pro Bowler, but there are more capable targets than just him.
In fact, the group consisting mainly of Fitz, Michael Floyd, Andre Roberts and Rob Housler was ranked as the 8th-best by NFL.com's Chris Wesseling.
The Cardinals' quarterback issues have exponentially diminished Fitzgerald's production, but he rightfully remains one of the NFL's most respected wide receivers. Floyd is a breakout candidate as a vertical threat, while Roberts offers run-after-catch ability as the third option.
The four players mentioned combined for 225 receptions, 2,536 yards and 11 touchdowns last season, but it is generally believed they'll do better with a decent quarterback who can get them the ball.
If they do improve with Carson Palmer under center, perhaps they'll move up in the rankings and be thought of in the same light as the Fitz, Anquan Boldin and Steve Breaston group. In 2008, those three combined for 262 receptions, 3,475 yards and 26 touchdowns.
The Cardinals can only hope.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Kiawah can be kind, or cruel
Depends on which way the wind blows
KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. -- Pete Dye won't forget the gushing praise he heard from just about everyone about his new creation, The Ocean Course, as the world's best players got ready for the 1991 Ryder Cup at Kiawah Island in weather that was perfect for golf.
Then the wind blew in from the Atlantic Ocean, and that changed everything.
"They had a heck of time," Dye said with a chuckle. "The trouble they had on those par 3s was unbelievable."
It has taken more than two decades of tweaks -- all overseen by Dye -- and the PGA of America's resolve to again make the feared course a showcase for the strongest field in golf for the PGA Championship, the final major of the year.
"It will be hard, but it will be fair," said Roger Warren, the president of Kiawah Island Golf Resort.
Dye was commissioned more than two decades ago to fashion a course on piles and piles of sand alongside the Atlantic. He laughs now about those early, positive reviews, recalling how four-time major champion Ray Floyd told him during Ryder Cup practice the course was "the greatest thing ever," after playing in a mild, southeasterly wind.
Few were smiling once gusts reached 20 knots.
"People ask if I designed the course like that on purpose," Dye said.
All you have to do is look at the Ryder Cup that year to know why.
Floyd and Fred Couples hit 9-irons and wedges into the par-3 17th during practice rounds. They were hitting 3-iron and 3-wood on the weekend. Wind carried balls into marshy hazards that would have never been in play in mild conditions. Mark Calcavecchia went 8-over par over the final four holes and lost a 4-up lead to Colin Montgomerie. Seve Ballesteros won a hole against Wayne Levi with a triple-bogey 7. Hale Irwin shot a 41 on his final nine -- and still earned a halve that gave the Americans the cup in what became known as the "War on the Shore."
Calcavecchia sat a sand dune staring at the ocean when he was done, believing he cost the United States the trophy. The lasting image of the match, though, was Bernhard Langer's dazed expression after his missed 6-footer on the 18th hole would have allowed Europe to retain the Ryder Cup.
Floyd called it a course you should never play with a scorecard -- and it took some time before anyone dared to try.
There was a Shell Wonderful World of Golf match between Annika Sorenstam and Dottie Pepper in 1996 and the World Cup in 1997 and 2003. The winning team in 1997 was Ireland, with a 26-year-old named Padraig Harrington and Paul McGinley. The individual medal went to Colin Montgomerie, one of only two times he left America with a trophy. Trevor Immelman and Rory Sabbatini won the World Cup six years later at Kiawah Island.
Perhaps the most attention the Ocean Course received came in 2000, when Robert Redford used the layout's foggy, windswept holes as the backdrop for the mystical golf fantasy, The Legend of Bagger Vance.
Warren was president of the PGA of America when the Ocean Course was awarded its major in 2005. He was thrilled in 1991 to watch the game's top players scramble for success at The Ocean Course.

Are Wolf Parade a supergroup? Google seems to think so: It returns some 70,000 results on the matter, including several from this very website. Certainly their lineup is stacked enough for the distinction. Between Spencer Krug, Dan Boeckner, and Dante DeCaro, I count half-a-dozen notable bands past or present, and drummer Arlen Thompson has put in work with Arcade Fire. But supergroups are rarely this prolific, nor this devoid of ego, and Wolf Parade have excelled at reconciling two increasingly distinct songwriting presences to make their music with-- rather than on top of-- each other.
This is especially true of Expo 86, the third Wolf Parade record in just under five years. Co-leaders Dan Boeckner and Spencer Krug are both coming off of arguably their most successful self-led projects yet. Last year's Dragonslayer served as a culmination of sorts for Krug's Sunset Rubdown, and Boeckner's Handsome Furs made a huge leap from curios to contenders on 2009's Face Control. Both seem to have carried the strengths of their respective sorta-side projects into the booth for Expo 86. While Wolf Parade's self-produced 2008 LP At Mount Zoomer was a notoriously laborious record to make, Expo 86 is said to have come together quickly, with help on the boards from Howard Bilerman. Limber and focused, it sounds like a record made by a band without a bunch of other commitments, and more than the two Wolf Parade records that preceded it, like a unified statement from its two songwriters rather than a couple of strong voices working in parallel.
Krug takes Expo's first shot with the chatty "Cloud Shadow on the Mountain", a jumpy, almost paranoiac ramble that that feels closest to the scattershot bluster of his work on At Mount Zoomer. Boeckner's "Palm Road" follows, a fairly standard Springsteenian rattler that gets it done but fails to ignite. Each track is distinctly the work of its author, but it's at this point that the differences between the two songwriters start to blur. "What Did My Lover Say? (It Always Had to Go This Way)" is Krug's, but it rides a rawboned riff that feels far more like the work of Boeckner, with Krug keeping the flights of lyrical and vocal fancy to a minimum. Here, especially in the wake of Zoomer, Krug's songs feel very to the point, as though he's saving the weird stuff for the Rubdown records and just wants the Wolf Parade tunes to pop. Which they do. And while I rather like Krug in the streamlined mode he's in here, one could easily argue he loses something having his edges sanded down like this.
While Boeckner's contributions to the Wolf Parade catalog have been by turns dizzying and drab, Face Control established him as a force of casual cool, and he brings that vibe to everything he touches here. Whereas Krug seemed to dominate Wolf Parade's 2005 debut, Apologies to the Queen Mary-- despite a strong showing from Boeckner in that record's back end-- the balance seems to have shifted some, and Boeckner's contributions here are uniformly strong. His circuitous songs are by and large more memorable than Krug's, but even at his best-- "Little Golden Age," "Yulia"-- he never quite blows it out like he did again and again on Face Control.
Expo 86, if nothing else, feels like the realization of a Wolf Parade sound; the exquisite Apologies carried the long shadow of its producer Isaac Brock, and Mount Zoomer felt too often like two personalities careening off each other rather than finding some common ground. Solid and occasionally striking through it is, I do come away from Expo 86 feeling a bit unsatisfied. Apologies was such an exhaustingly cathartic listen, Mount Zoomer was a puzzle you had to put together, but Expo just kind of lays it all out there, and the takeaway just isn't what it was for its predecessors. It's quite a feat to get these two singular songwriters, both riding waves of creativity, to cohere in this way. But after the individual successes of Face Control and Dragonslayer, Expo 86 finds a nice comfortable spot somewhere in the middle, which feels more dependable than revelatory. Could be a little more supergroup-standard ego would do them some good.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Another Fire Put Out
by Paul on 05/16/07 at 09:49 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Spector at Fox Sports,
Internet speculation suggests New Jersey Devils center Scott Gomez might sign with either the Calgary Flames or Ottawa Senators as an unrestricted free agent this summer.
A quick perusal of the payroll of both clubs, however, suggests such a signing is impossible without either club dumping substantial salary to make room for the anticipated $6 million-plus per season Gomez is expected to command this summer.

Memo To Imperial Advisers Re: Incident Of The "New Clothes."
TO: Imperial Advisers and Ministers of State
FROM: Imperial Prime Minister
RE: Damage control in the incident of the "new clothes"
First, thanks to everyone for your support at the recent emergency meeting of the Privy Council. Using the input of our diverse knowledge partners in helping to brainstorm ways to centralize the administration's "no-spin" message, the Office of the Prime Minister has laid out the following plan for establishing positive reputation management in the aftermath of the "new clothes" incident:
Imperial advisers have developed a twofold strategy. First, we will confront, head-on, problems such as the rash of "naked emperor" jokes and songs currently becoming popular among the citizenry, while simultaneously shifting attention to other areas such as conservative economic policies and favorable trade regulations. This strategy will unfold over the next several days, starting with today's announcement of the creation of the Office of the Sheriff of the Imperial Wardrobe, and continuing Sunday with a sermon by the high pontiff on nudity and the Garden of Paradise. Anticipating criticism of the emperor on moral grounds, the pontiff will try to put the incident in perspective by portraying nakedness as a natural state, symbolic of those who are innocent of any wrongdoing. The minister of trade will then work to focus attention on the emperor's broad future goals, such as spreading the exploitation of foreign peoples, importing more exotic animals for spectacle entertainments, and enriching the imperial coffers with new "temporary" taxes.
Overall, when dealing with the media, it is important for all imperial advisers to stay on message with our key talking points:
In dealing with the media, we would do well to remember the previous administration's fiasco over the incident of the nightingale. We certainly do not want to be put in the position of being criticized by the media again for sending our young princes out to search far and wide for talking birds, crystal eggs, or enchanted feathers. However, the Office of the Prime Minister feels confident that if we toe the line and stay on message, we can weather this crisis and all pull through together.
Yours sincerely,
Imperial Prime Minister

It's quite relevant if they are going to produce a new Trek series.
But not relevant to fans who still enjoy the novels, and may not care to see them dismissed with a handwave just because of "canon".

'Watermark' documentary shows the beauty of decay
A 3.5-star movie review of "Watermark," a visually stunning documentary that emphasizes the beauty and strangeness of decay in the 21st century.
Special to The Seattle Times
Movie Review
'Watermark,' a documentary by Jennifer Baichwal and Edward Burtynsky. 91 minutes. Rated PG for some smoking images. Varsity.
The documentary team that made 2007's "Manufactured Landscapes" created this visually stunning follow-up film, which emphasizes the beauty and strangeness of decay in the 21st century.
Like the previous film, "Watermark" begins with a lengthy, almost abstract sequence that records repetitive movements, which seem to ache to tell a story. But the longer you look, the less you see in conventional narrative terms.
Whether it's a vision of manufactured hell (the endless Chinese factory that opens "Manufactured Landscapes") or a freakish force of nature (muddy surf appears to rise above a border town in the opening of "Watermark"), the movements are spinning out of control.
Local observers (and other native speakers) are used to comment on the images of massive devastation.
Cinematographer Nicholas de Pencier's swooping cameras, which appear to obey no laws of gravity, go on to record the construction of a skyscraper-high Chinese dam, the cracked-mud desert where the Colorado used to flow, the toxic clutter of a desert town, the water-plundering tanneries of Bangladesh.
And when it comes to California and its water resources (or lack thereof), there's more than a faint echo of "Chinatown" and its deeply pessimistic "Forget it, Jake" finale. Forget it? Not these filmmakers.
They've found a way of serving up these images without seeming callous or exploitative or preachy. Climate change is never just a theory to them. It's as clear as a water shortage or a dried-up lake that used to supply a village with abundant fish.
