Stories by Ken Burns It's time to hit the trail for a Western adventure... the ultimate family South Dakota and Wyoming vacation. Tauck takes you behind-the-scenes with filmed narratives by Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan – creators of "The National Parks: America's Best Idea" – who share personal stories of the dreamers, visionaries, and unsung heroes who shaped the preservation of the national parks. The first pioneers had to raft down wilderness rivers, just like you will when you explore the Snake River. You'll have a chance to look for beaver, elk, bison and more as you travel to Yellowstone National Park, where Old Faithful shoots its plume of steam skyward every hour – and you'll be staying in a lodge just steps away! Nothing says "Wild West" like Buffalo Bill and a buckin' bronco rodeo; learn more about them when you spend the night in historic Cody. Live the life of a cowboy by day at the TA Guest Ranch in Wyoming, site of a Johnson County War shootout, and by night with a stay at The Ranch at Ucross, a real dude ranch up in the Bighorn Mountains. Everything is larger than life in the West – especially Crazy Horse Memorial and Mt. Rushmore in South Dakota's Black Hills, where the faces of four former presidents are sculpted in stone – and the purple mountains' majesty of the Tetons, where you'll enjoy a two-night stay in a classic
western lodge!

Keep an eye out for Yellowstone's diverse wildlife as you explore some of the famous features of the park, whose geologic wonders include two-thirds of all the geysers in the world – with your Tauck Director.

Have a picnic lunch, and see some of the 10,000 hot springs within the park, as well as bubbling pools of mud and volcanic calderas with a local park guide; and, a short distance from your lodge, watch mighty Old Faithful shoot its plume of steam high into the air just about every hour – a highlight of any Wyoming vacation!
Learn about Buffalo Bill's West and go to a rodeo in Cody
Say goodbye to Yellowstone and continue your Wyoming vacation to the historic town of Cody, founded in part by the famous "Buffalo Bill" Cody, from whom the town got its name. Glimpse the history and culture of the heyday of the American West at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center, whose five connected museums each tell a different side of the story, focusing on the Plains Indians, Western art, firearms, natural
history and the life and career of "Buffalo Bill" Cody himself (at the Buffalo Bill Museum, opened in 2012).

The Bighorn Mountains and a double helping of cowboy life down on the ranch
Journey through Wyoming's Bighorn Mountains today, past deep
canyons, vast grasslands, and blankets of wildflowers en route to one of the highlights of your Wyoming vacation – a double dose of Western ranch life that your family will love! First, feel the spirit of Cowboy Country during an authentic ranch experience – including a cookhouse lunch, a horseback ride*, a horse whisperer and a roping demonstration – at the TA Guest Ranch in Buffalo, Wyoming. A real working cattle ranch, the TA Ranch was the site of a famous siege and shootout during the infamous "Johnson County War" in 1892; you can still see the old gunshot holes in the ranch's original horse barn! Later, continue on to an overnight and dinner at your leisure at yet another real Wyoming ranch – the Ranch at Ucross – topping the night off with an old-fashioned campfire complete with stories and s'mores!
The Ranch at Ucross
A tale of two carvings in the Black Hills – Crazy Horse and Mount Rushmore
Depart the Ranch at Ucross and Wyoming and head for the Black Hills of South Dakota. Look up in wonder at the Crazy Horse Memorial, where you'll view the work in progress as artisans carve the likeness of the famous Lakota warrior out of the mountain; when completed, it will be the largest rock sculpture in the world. Then it's on to view the towering stone portraits of four American presidents at Mount Rushmore, one of the must-see landmark sights in the U.S., and an overnight at the K Bar S Lodge. Join us for a fun farewell dinner this evening, where you'll share delightful memories of your family's South Dakota and Wyoming vacation in Cowboy Country.

It's hard to sit still here. Everywhere you look, wilderness beckons. See the spectacular Tetons rising out of the sky above the Snake River from the huge picture windows 60 feet tall in the main lodge. Gaze across the shimmering lake and spy glimpses of wildlife ambling near the shore as you sit down to eat in the Mural Room. Or peer through your handy binoculars – a must for "up-close" viewing of mountain slopes dotted with wildflowers – while you are enjoying the only swimming pool in Grand Teton National Park. Set in the heart of the park, the Lodge offers all kinds of outdoor activities, including horseback riding, float trips and boat excursions. So when you're not off exploring postcard-perfect sights near the Lodge like Jenny Lake and the wildlife-rich Snake River with Tauck, you're free to enjoy your stay as you like.
In 1987 the Old Faithful Inn was designated a National Historic Landmark because it was "the first building in a National Park constructed in an architectural style harmonious with the grandeur of the surrounding landscape". Its seven-story-high log lobby is unique in American architecture. Created with gnarled logs and rough-sawn wood from the Northern Pacific Railroad, it has a sense of place as identifiable as the park itself. But that's not the only thing special about this 100+-year-old hotel. It is also steps from the world-famous Old Faithful Geyser, where you can count on the clockwork timing of its plume of steam that soars skyward every hour. When you are not outside marveling at this natural wonder, you can enjoy the Inn's immense lobby and huge stone fireplace, comfortable rooms and a great restaurant.
Did you know that more than 93% of all American travelers have stayed in a Holiday Inn? That's because they know they can find friendly services, comfortable accommodations, and welcome amenities at this well-known hotel chain. The Holiday Inn® Cody at Buffalo Bill Village is no exception. It's just blocks away from the Buffalo Bill Historical Center and close to the Cody Nite Rodeo and Dan Miller's Music Revue, offering you one of the best locations in this historic "Old West" town. There's an outdoor swimming pool and a small fitness facility when you're ready to wind down after a busy day and an on-site laundromat available to guests. The Bottoms Up Lounge is a great place to relax after a busy day.
No trip to the great American West would be complete without a visit to a real dude ranch. Days start with a cowboy breakfast spread, and end with a dinner buffet that has everything from grilled trout to Wyoming beef and tender chicken – with an apple pie that can't be beat. Lodging accommodations vary and feature views of horses grazing in the back pasture, or sage-covered hills well suited for a trail ride. There are so many activities here you'll never run out of things to do. You can choose to ride a horse or splash in the pool. Play tennis, soccer or challenge your traveling companions to a game of horseshoes. Board games make indoor time fun too. And believe it or not, there is one TV at the ranch but according to the ranch hands, there's hardly ever a kid in front of it!
Set in the unspoiled beauty of the Norbeck Wildlife Preserve, the K Bar S Lodge has views of presidents Washington and Jefferson at Mount Rushmore from the deck just outside its impressive lobby. Comfortable guest rooms feature Plush Serta® mattresses, coffee maker, hair dryer, free Internet access, 27" color TV with cable channels and HBO, and iron and ironing board. There are complimentary laundry facilities in each building. With its dining rated as "Supplier of the Year" by the National Tour Association, you can anticipate a great meal in the indoor dining room or the Gazebo.

Triple and quadruple accommodations are generally two-bedded rooms with a rollaway cot where available and are not recommended for comfort. Please note that we cannot guarantee adjacent, adjoining or connecting rooms. We will do all that we can to secure rooms next to one another or connecting when possible. A hotel may consider "adjacent" to be across the hall.

Checked Luggage – General
Due to space restrictions, we ask that you please limit your checked luggage to one suitcase per person weighing no more than 50 pounds (23 kg) and with overall dimensions (length + width + height) not exceeding 62 inches (158 cm).
Besides complying with the Tauck restriction noted above, you should also be sure to research and comply with all airline baggage restrictions relating to your flights to and from your Tauck journey. Airlines have become much more strict in enforcing size and weight limits in recent years, and luggage exceeding airline standards for size or weight may result in expensive overage fees or other consequences.
Airlines are free to revise luggage policies without notice, and certain airlines have different baggage allowances for different classes of service. Researching and complying with airline luggage restrictions is the responsibility of the guest, and Tauck cannot be held responsible for any costs or disruptions to travel caused by the failure to research and comply with airline policies.
Please be sure to attach your Tauck luggage tag to your suitcase before leaving home!
Carry-on Luggage - General
Although oversize bags and wheeled, carry-on luggage are popular for airline travel, they are often not convenient or appropriate for motor coach travel or for many on-tour flights. Most modern sightseeing motor coaches offer limited space for numerous or larger items. Space under seats or in the overhead rack is typically small, and designed to accommodate items like coats, hats, purses, and small camera bags, etc.
For your day-to-day travel while on tour, we recommend that you limit your hand luggage to a small, soft-sided carry-on piece, and that you bring only those items you need handy during the day such as make-up, medications, cameras, film, etc. Items too large to fit under the motor coach seat or on the overhead rack must be stored in the luggage bays beneath the motor coach, and may be inaccessible during daytime travel.
Your Tauck Director will assist you with information on free-time activities based on honest opinion and guidance but will not sell you anything. This means better value and a more relaxed and pleasant experience for you.

Age Recommendations – Children 3 years of age or older at the time of travel are welcome on this Tauck Bridges journey. Based upon our experience with family travelers, for each itinerary we have a minimum recommended age to encourage comfort and enjoyment for all of our guests. We recommend that children be 8 years of age or older to fully participate in all activities planned for this tour. Please note that the raft trip is restricted to children who are 6 years of age or older and the horse back riding to children 7 year of age or older. All children must be accompanied on activities by a parent or guardian. At least one guest in the traveling party must be 21 years of age or older in order to make a reservation.
Babysitting ― Our journeys are designed for adults and children to share the wonder of discovery together. If you require babysitting services, your Tauck Director will put you in contact with the appropriate hotel staff with whom you may make babysitting arrangements. There is usually an additional fee for these services. Many hotels do offer on-site babysitting services; however, babysitting services may not be available at all of our hotels. Please note that our Tauck Directors are not responsible for providing babysitting services.
Safety and Welfare Responsibility ― We welcome the participation of child travelers on our exciting excursions.

Special Travel Documentation for Children
Authorization for Travel
If you travel into or out of the U.S. with children under the age of 18, you should be aware of the following: because of increasing incidents of child abductions in disputed custody cases and because children are at risk as possible victims of child pornography, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) strongly recommends that unless the child is accompanied by both parents, you should have a notarized note from the child's other parent (or, in the case of a child traveling with grandparents, uncles or aunts, sisters or brothers, or friends, a note signed by both parents) stating that the parent(s) not traveling acknowledge that the parent(s), family members, etc. who are traveling into or out of the U.S. with the child have permission to do so. While CBP may not ask to see this documentation, if they do ask, and you do not have it, you may be detained until the circumstances of the child traveling without both parents can be fully assessed.
If there is no second parent with legal claims to the child (parent deceased, sole custody, etc.), other relevant paperwork, such as a court decision, birth certificate naming only one parent, or a death certificate, will be useful.
Authorization for Emergency Medical Treatment
In the unlikely event of a medical emergency, a medical facility will require permission from the child's parents to provide treatment. Therefore, we strongly suggest that you bring along a letter from both parents (including other pertinent documents as cited above) authorizing emergency medical treatment for their child.
We are not responsible for the disruption of travel caused by the improper documentation of any guest, including children traveling without both parents. While there is no definitive format or standard, click here to view a sample letter for guardians or one parent traveling with a child.
If you are traveling from the U.S., the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) requires that your name, as it appears on your domestic or international airline ticket, must precisely match your name as it appears on the government-issued photo ID (i.e., passport or driver's license) that you present during security screening. The ID name must also match any additional airline data, such as frequent-flyer information. For example, if you present your driver's license to security and it says John T. Smith, your ticket must also say John T. Smith, not John Thomas Smith, Jack Smith, or any other variant. Your date-of-birth and gender information provided to the airline must also match your passport.
If you make your air travel arrangements through us, please ensure that the name you provide us precisely matches your name as shown on the identification you will use while traveling. If you make your own airline reservations, please ensure that the airline has the correct information.
For more information on the TSA's requirements, please visit their website by clicking here.
If you are traveling from an airport outside the jurisdiction of the U.S., you will need to determine what travel documentation and identification is required for that particular airport.
Due to heightened security regulations, certain items such as a metal nail file, pocketknife, cigarette lighter, or tweezers, and some liquid, gel, or aerosol items may not be permitted in your carry-on luggage. Please call your airline prior to departure to obtain current information on non-permissible carry-on items and recommended airport check-in times.

Overall Rating:
Tetons are sensational - a visual highlight for all ages. 10 of us from 70 to 5 yrs had a great time. Wonderful learning experience for the kids to appreciate our Nat'l Parks. Kids banded together - adults got a break. Great tour guide & naturalists at parks engaged kids. Lodges were terrific as well as rodeo, but food in SD was awful.
The float trip along the Snake River was visually stunning and enjoyable.
Would you recommend Tauck to a friend?Definitely
Our two grandchildren loved the trip and it was geared for them. Our granddaughter loved Sommer, our tour director. She kept the kids busy, even on the bus, with challenges and stories.
I would recommend this trip highly for grandparents and parents with children ages 7-17.
Loved seeing the kids participate in the rodeo!
We went hoping to show our kids, ages 11 & 8, the beauty of the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone and the history of Mt. Rushmore. We also wanted a Bridges vacation because we hoped the kids would have fun with other kids along the way. Thanks to our Tauck tour guide Sommer and a great group of other guests our hopes were realized. A great trip!
The night spent at the U Cross ranch was great because we had all gotten to know each other and the kids had a blast. Also, the lighting ceremony at Mt. Rushmore is something that every American should get the chance to see, moving and memorable.
Our family of five (kids ages 14, 12, and 8) absolutely loved this trip! We gained so much more insight into the attractions with Tauck than we would have on our own. Every minute of our vacation was inspirational, educational, fun-filled and action-packed! We all made new friends, and we loved our tour director Sommer and driver Verna!
Our family loved walking the Morning Glory trail in Yellowstone. We saw a coyote and her 2 pups along the route, and also felt the earth shake below us at the Black Sand Pond. There is nothing like waking up in Yellowstone and watching Old Faithful erupt right outside your window.

On the problem of the jQuery Plugin architecture i have already written two entries on my blog:

http://www.whitewashing.de/blog/articles/47
http://www.whitewashing.de/blog/articles/48

and the question is, how a ZF jQuery component could support additional components like the jQuery

UI Library, Zend_JQuery_Form that uses a jQuery plugin or a jQuery Autocomplete View Helper. All

of which would need additional downloads of JS and Stylesheets (No CDN available). They would

add lots of additional value to people who want to construct ZF MVC projects with ajax support

in a fast way with no direct concerns about the javascript overhead (But: Refactoring all the auto-build code is supported of course).

Because of the complexity of jQuery requirements (when deadling with additions) I included lots of

helper methods that cope with this problem, deadling with js and css include directory, adding

js and css files. All this stuff will be built into HTML markup, when <?php echo $this->jQuery(); ?> is called. I don't use headScript() and headStyle() for the same reasons as Matthew did not in his Dojo proposal, to group all the jQuery stuff together and make it independant, allowing for specific disabling of all the jQuery output, when refactoring occured.

Additionally I have also tested around a little bit already and have implementations of the DatePicker and Autocomplete components working that depend on a first jQuery View Helper implementation. They require the additional includes and stylesheets I talked about, so I won't add them to the proposal just yet.

Jul 14, 2008

Congrats for idea and for work on this component. jQuery is a must to for ZF since jQuery is highly used by developers...

Jul 15, 2008

A jQuery view helper will be a great addition to the Zend Framework since many of its user, including me, use this library. Thank you!

Jul 15, 2008

A few notes, based on the dojo version: please try and mimic the dojo method names as much as possible so that we can start determining what might be put into an abstract class and/or interface. For example:

setLibraryPath() -> setLocalPath() (this one also better encapsulates the distinction between a remote CDN resource vs. a local resource)

addStyleSheet() -> addStylesheet() (same goes for the get variant)

I'd also recommend extending the new Zend_View_Helper_Abstract, which will negate the need for the setView() method. (note to self: must do this for the dojo() helper as well!)

Additionally, I'll just get this out of the way now: start using the ZendX prefix. We've already determined and publically stated that any JS toolkits outside of Dojo will be in the extras library. As such, you should show a use case indicating how you would attach the view helper to the view object ($view->addHelperPath('ZendX/View/Helper/', 'ZendX_View_Helper')).

Finally, do you think it likely that there would be additional jQuery components outside the view helpers at any point? If so, I'm going to recommend using a top-level namespace: ZendX_JQuery. The rationales are that it keeps all jQuery components grouped, making them easy to locate in the tree; it promotes encapsulation; and it promotes the idea of use-at-will.

Nice work, and ping me if you have any questions or would like help with identifying abstraction points (for a generic JS view helper interface or abstract class).

Jul 15, 2008

Thanks for the feedback. I will add all the changes to the method body tonight. Also i will claim ZendX_Jquery then. (or can it be JQuery? ZF Coding Standards Puzzle me on this specific application of the CamelCase rule).

Additional components are possible, ajaxForm, Autocomplete and such stuff. But at first i plan to implement this Helper and the basic jQuery Ajax Functionality and then maybe extend the functonality to include additional features.

Jul 15, 2008

We discussed CamelCasing yesterday internally, and I made the case that it's confusing to users when our CamelCasing rules conflict with known standard names. The one caveat is that the first letter following an underscore always has to be Uppercase to ensure class name lookups will work.

So, short answer: JQuery as a classname segment is fine.

Looking forward to seeing what other features you propose later!

Jul 16, 2008

Please consider the above: personally, I really like that I don't have to know or think upon the name of a component, just the rules. ZendX_Jquery would be a better choice.

Jul 16, 2008

The library is called jQuery, and jQuery users are used to seeing the capital Q. This is also true of services like OpenID and OAuth. It's more confusing to have a disconnect between the widely know and accepted name and how it is named internally in ZF.

Jul 17, 2008

I will always value a single convention over different rules based on context, but I can see Matthew's argument here as well. I do think this is something probably best left to the community. Also, the framework should have consistent naming rules for method names as well. So, for example, isXmlHttpRequest() would become isXMLHttpRequest() instead.

Jul 16, 2008

From the way jQuery is written I have to stick with JQuery as class names. As an application developer you propably won't come accross calling the class anyways, except in your layout view to output the collected onLoad/include statements. The jQuery helper is really just a helper to bundle all jQuery-releated helpers required output together.

If sticking to ZF conventions you might even only have to implement some derivation of UC-00 and UC-01. The helpers like jqLink are good to go then. The real importance comes when you want to build your own helper, see UC-02 for that.

Jul 15, 2008

The use cases are a bit too abstract to see how this helper will actually be used in real application code. Is the idea to place calls to the methods such as addJavascriptFile() and addStyleSheet() in view scripts for specific controllers, and then place a single call to jQuery() in the head of the layout? I think fleshing out the examples will clarify this.

Also, how would you go about configuring things such as the library path, etc. just once (in some central place, such as the bootstrap or a plugin), or is this concern not even applicable?

Jul 15, 2008

You're right, the UC are to abstract. I will refine them tonight.

The calls to addJavascriptfile and addStylesheet are supposed to be called in addional helpers that facilitate the jQuery Helper. For example if you write your own View Helper that uses jQuery, you can make sure that the appropriate additional javascript libraries are loaded.

One central place to define the paths and directory variables is recommended. I can clarify this in an additional Use Case.

Jul 15, 2008

I have incorporated Bryces and Matthews suggestions into the proposal. For anyone who has already seen the uses cases, please re-look at Use Cases 00, 01 and 02.

@Bryce: The new UC-02 clarifies your questions about calling addJavascriptFile() and addStylesheet().

@Matthew: UC-00 shows how to initialize the jQuery Helper using addHelperPath().

Jul 17, 2008

The updated use cases are clearer, thank you!

Jul 15, 2008

Maybe these links will be helpfull:
http://jquery.hohli.com/
http://jquery.hohli.com/zf.html

Jul 15, 2008

Good to see that someone is working on this.

A small suggestion, please try to replace private with protected. private visibility is really limited to your helper otherwise. If I extended your helper, I couldn't access private methods and variables.

Jul 15, 2008

You are right. I've already done this. Thanks for the suggestion.

Jul 15, 2008

Question to all the jQuery people, would you like to have an infrastructure helper for the jQuery Events? Or should this be left out for further extensions of the component so far? I want to push the component to 1.7 which will be released soon after 1.6, so maybe there shouldn't be too much fucntionality in this proposal just yet to get it through the process?

That would be a helper that can be included in more practical helpers like the first proposed practical helper "jqLink" or any future implementations may they be called jqForm, jqAutocomplete, jqDatePicker (NOT included in this proposal) and so on to register/inject global and local ajax events or the common javascript events like onClick, onSubmit and so on into the ZendX_JQuery_View_Helper_JQuery::addOnLoad method.

Also, what are your suggestions on the jqLink() method header, escpecilly the $options Array. Are default effects like loading, flashing, disabling (or any others) on the wishlist?

Jul 16, 2008

'inline' True or false, wheater to inline the javascript in onClick="" atttribute or append it to jQuery onLoad Stack.

I would suggest not to have the ability of using inline JavaScript.

Jul 16, 2008

I second this (I think), no inline JS rather have jquery assign it all by itself.

Jul 16, 2008

I dont like inline JS aswell, but someone might. Since the difference between inline or onLoad/grouped javascript ist in my opinion just a small difference and not at all something you have to restrict, I leave it in as optional argument. Also the documentation will provide hints why not to use inline javascript and what difficulties might occur (escaping).

Jul 17, 2008

People like all kinds of things, but I think "inline" is not best practice, and the component should adhere to that. At least IMHO. <ac:emoticon ac:name="smile" />

Aug 08, 2008

I agree that best practice is not having inline JavaScript code.

Consider these scenarios:

1. Inline JavaScript, for instance an anchor with onclick attribute, will be clickable before the page has finished loading, but it may attempt to trigger code that has yet to initialize or otherwise result in an error.

2. At the same time, there may be situations where you'd want to inline something, simply because you want it to be clickable before the page has finished loading completely. That could be the case if a page has lots of images and/or third party integration that results in the page being visible and (to the visitor) usable, but is not yet fully loaded.

So I agree with Benjamin and think it would be worth having the flexibility to generate either, but to default to what most would consider best practice; onload/grouped javascript.

The flexibility and loosely-coupled nature of the Zend Framework is what makes it so attractive.

Aug 15, 2008

Thank you all for the feedback, i have finished a new version of the component (see SVN http://www.beberlei.de/dev/svn) and integrated all your thoughts as good as possible. Open Questions (to me) are now:

1.) Should jqLink be renamed to something more insightful? jurl? (like url Helper), or jLink or something?

2.) Should jqLink use the Url helper as parent class? Or should it be standalone? (Not inheriting the MVC route match of the Url helper).

3.) Its the $options array layout "ok"? or are there any thoughts? (See Point 5 Theory of Operation with jqLink DocComment)

I move this proposal to the next stage now, since this are questions that are more likely to match the later proposal stages.

Aug 17, 2008

i am sorry, i had to change the proposal at this late stage to include the functions for the jQuery UI library, that are needed to integrate the jQuery UI library smoothly.

I also added the docblocks I have for all the functions to clarify the functionality.

Sep 04, 2008
<ac:macro ac:name="note"><ac:parameter ac:name="title">Zend Comments</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body>

This proposal is approved for immediate development in the extras/incubator, with the following feedback:

Please include a Zend_JQuery class with enableView() and enableForm() static methods for setting up appropriate plugin paths in those objects (as a convenience feature)

We are very pleased with this proposal and how closely it mirrors Zend_Dojo; it will serve as an excellent blueprint for additional JS offerings in the future.

Volunteer for NIAID-funded clinical studies related to hepatitis on ClinicalTrials.gov.
Read the story of the hepatitis E vaccine.
Hepatitis means inflammation of the liver. It can be caused by viruses, bacteria, parasites, autoimmune conditions, reactions to certain drugs, heavy alcohol use, and other toxins.
Hepatitis also refers to a family of viral infections that affect the liver; the five identified infections are caused by viruses labeled A, B, C, D, and E. Each virus has different routes of transmission and different prognoses.
Read more about the causes, transmission, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of viral hepatitis.
NIAID has made groundbreaking contributions to the field of hepatitis research. NIAID scientists discovered the hepatitis A and E viruses; developed one of the first diagnostic tests for hepatitis A; and were instrumental in the creation of the hepatitis A vaccine, which is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for all children over 1 year old. Today, NIAID continues its leadership by conducting and supporting research to better understand the development of hepatitis diseases and their effect on the immune system and to develop novel treatments and vaccines against diseases caused by hepatitis viruses.

My name is Wayne and my fiance and I are proud parents of two Pits. We got our first dog Willie when he was about 2 months old. We rescued him from the Gwinnett County animal shelter. After about a year and a half we decided he was ready to have a playmate. After a two month search we found our second dog Rosie and we rescued her from Fulton County Animal shelter the day before she was scheduled to be euthanized. We live north of Atlanta, Georgia and we are locals at Settles Bridge Dog Park.

The project was sparked by Mayor Bloomberg's announcement last February of the report by the New York City Panel on Climate Change that predicted that New York City would quickly sink under water if sea levels rise. "Rising Waters" was initiated by the Latrobe Team, a multi-disciplinary Princeton University affiliated group led by Professor Guy Nordenson, a structural engineer. Each of the five teams was given a geographical area to focus on. The project is meant to create real adaptive solutions for New York city and New Jersey.
The teams chosen by MOMA to explore the problem took up shop at P.S. 1 — the MOMA satellite in Long Island City — in November. Their solutions range from the immediate and practical idea of installing pipes under sidewalks and roadways to divert water to the futuristic restructuring of higher ground areas into small islands connected by water channels. Not only do the solutions provide modes of real action for the area they also depict how New York City might look besieged by tidal waves and rising currents.

All of these ideas are very creative …but didn't any of the designers consider how the existing land masses might be saved? I would think avoiding destruction of millions of dollars of existing property, not to mention housing for millions of people would be the priority – instead of ideas of what to do once the flood has taken place.

Saint Julian of Toledo
Parents may have been Jewish, but Julian was raised Christian. Well educated at the local cathedral school. Monk at Agali, Spain. Spiritual student of Saint Eugene II, Archbishop of Toledo, Spain. Abbot at Agali. Archbishop of Toledo in 680. First bishop with primacy over the entire Iberian peninsula, and helped centralize the Spanish Church in Toledo. Presided over several councils and synods. Revised the Mozarbic liturgy. Voluminous writer whose works include Prognostics, a volume on death, and a biography of Visigoth King Wamba. An odd mixture, he was known as a kind and gentle man – but encouraged Spanish kings to deal harshly with Jews.

But obviously not. Not one duff song...welll the occasional OK song, but all the others are brilliant. Those classic dance anthems I know and love, are once againe uniquely mixed in together, non-stop. Another one of the best CD's produced of ALL TIME, and by MoS...And probably one of the best things I bought from Play.com by far...Excellent. You know, even my window cleaner was listening to the album outside as we were playing. He said 'Thats hard to find, AN ALBUM WITH NOTHING BUT THE BEST, WOW!'. Just goes to show.
