Top Local Tips for Tepoztlan
Misc Info about Tepoztlan If you're staying in Cuernavaca, save yourself trouble and time and just take a taxi here, very inexpensive for door-to-door service. We recommend staying at Nican Mo Calli hotel, room #8. Your balcony looks right at the gorgeous cliffs, and you can see the Tepozteco pyramid. Most things are closed Monday, many on Tuesday. The town is quiet through Thursday. Weekends are a zoo, but if you're into shopping at tiangui's (small vendor stalls) you'll be in heaven, they take over the town. If you want to climb up the cliffs to the pyramid, do it mid-week, it's a throng of people heading up a slippery steep trail on weekends. Eat at El Brujo, it's fun and staff is terrific, one of the very few bi-lingual places. Be sure to visit the ex-Convent, a huge church/monastery type building with a museum inside. They're also doing restoration on some rooms and you can see the process. The bookstore there is great.
Taking taxis so you don't get taken Ask how much taxi fare will be before you get it. Here, as well as in many places in Mexico, the fare may be inflated if you are not a local. Ask around to others for the normal rate first, then try to get a cab. If the driver says a fare much different, take a different cab.

A Spokane jury will likely decide this week whether a 56-year-old man with a criminal history of indecent acts with minors will spend the rest of his life in prison.
The trial of Richard Payne, accused of inappropriately touching and exposing himself to a five-year-old girl at a NorthTown Mall arcade in June 2012, began today with jury selection in Spokane County Superior Court Judge Kathleen O'Connor's courtroom. The proceedings, expected to last a week or less, have been delayed multiple times by defense motions seeking to suppress comments Payne made to investigators and keep some details of his criminal history from jurors.
To read more about this item, go inside the blog.
The 19-year-old Spokane man suspected in a June fatal shooting has been implicated in a series of computer armed robberies originating on Craigslist and dating back to March.
Issiah Schauman appeared in Spokane County Superior Court on Friday facing two counts of first-degree robbery for his involvement in separate incidents at area parks where thieves posing as prospective buyers of Apple products brandished guns and made off with the loot. The appearance came several weeks after Schauman appeared on first-degree murder charges in the shooting death of Fabian McBride, 27, on June 12.
According to court records, Schauman was involved in an armed robbery taking place less than 24 hours before police say he shot and killed McBride then sped off, eventually turning himself over to authorities in Pierce County two weeks later. Schauman initiated the June 11 robbery in Liberty Park because he didn't have money, according to an unnamed police informant. He pulled a .45 semiautomatic pistol on the female victim while another suspect, Michael Garner, snatched the woman's Macbook laptop and ran.
Schauman was also involved in a March robbery at the same park, according to court records. He was not present for a May robbery that took place at Franklin Park, which involved Garner and Curtis Cyrus, also arrested for his role in the three burglaries.
According to Jenny Ludwig, an apartment manager where McBride lived, the spat that ended in the June shooting began when McBride accused Schauman of burglarizing a home McBride was watching for a friend.
The state requested $100,000 bond for the two robbery counts Schauman faces. He remains in Spokane County Jail awaiting an expected murder trial date of Oct. 7.
A Wenatchee lawyer was nominated Thursday to become Eastern Washington's newest federal judge, the White House announced Thursday.
Stanley A. Bastian, managing partner of Jeffers, Danielson, Sonn & Aylward law firm, will replace U.S. District Judge Edward Shea, who has been placed into the federal judiciary's senior status. He's been a finalist for two previous positions on the federal bench.
Bastian was among eight judical nominations President Barack Obama made Thursday. All are subject to Senate confirmation.
A 1983 graduate of the University of Washington School of Law, Bastian has served as an assistant city attorney in Seattle and as a law clerk in the state Appeals Court. He joined the Wenatchee law firm in 1988 and specializes in civil employment cases.
Among his most notable cases was the civil litigation surrounding the widely discredited Wenatchee sex ring investgations of the mid 1990s. Bastian was hired to defend prosecutors and sheriff's investigators who had been sued for their roles in the controversial investigations.
A Spokane teenager has been missing for ten days.
Carolyn JoAnn Toner, 17, was last seen on Sept. 3, according to a Washington State Patrol report. She is a white female, about 5-feet-9-inches and 125 pounds. She has blue eyes, red hair and wears glasses.
She also goes by the nickname Poptart.
Anyone with information about Toner's location is asked to call Crime Check at 456-2233, the WSP Missing Persons Unit at 1-800-543-5678 or the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at 1-800-843-5678 (1-800-THE-LOST).
Clad in a white Spokane County Jail jumpsuit and sporting a long, black beard, the Spokane man accused of sending ricin-laced letters to a federal judge and President Barack Obama appeared in court Wednesday to set a tentative timeline for his legal proceedings.
Matthew Ryan Buquet, 38, was mostly silent during an appearance in U.S. District Court for Eastern Washington on Wednesday morning, conferring in whispers with his attorneys and sipping water from a styrofoam cup. Buquet has been in federal custody since he was arrested shortly after mailing letters containing the biological toxin derived from castor seeds in mid-May. His case was recently transferred to District Judge Ancer Haggerty of Portland, Ore., because Buquet allegedly mailed one of the poisioned letters to Eastern Washington District Judge Fred Van Sickle.
According to a federal indictment filed earlier this summer, each of the letters Buquet sent read, "We have a bomb placed, we are going to Kill you! Hezbollah."
Though the FBI has said field tests have produced positive results for the presence of ricin in the letters, Eastern Washington Assistant U.S. District Attorney Stephanie Van Marter said Wednesday the government expected to have final, peer-reviewed test results by the beginning of October. Judge Haggerty set motion hearings for January and February ahead of Buquet's expected trial date, to begin in May of next year.
The FBI discovered a total of five ricin letters mailed from Spokane in May, including missives directed to Fairchild Air Force Base, the CIA and a post office. Buquet's legal team declined comment on the pending investigation Wednesday. No one was injured as a result of the poisoned letters.
Buquet has pleaded not guilty to the three counts against him: one charge of developing, producing or possessing a known biological toxin and two counts of mailing a threatening communication. The first count carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment. Mailing threatening communications carries a maximum penalty of five years under federal law.

Investigators discovered fingerprints linking two teenagers to an 88-year-old World War II veteran murdered two weeks ago.
Police say Demetruis Glenn and Kenan Adams-Kinard, both 16, beat Delbert "Shorty" Belton to death Aug. 22 while he sat in his car, according to an affidavit. Investigators found Glenn's prints on the exterior read driver's side door and the interior of the rear driver's side passenger door. Adams-Kinard's prints were on the exterior driver's door and the interior of the rear driver's side passenger door.
Belton's body was found wedged between the front bucket seats, with his lower body from the neck down folded into the back seat area, according to the affidavit.
Friends said Belton was in his car near the Eagles Lodge, waiting to meet a friend for a game of pool. Adams-Kinard claimed in a letter that the teens were planning to meet him there to purchase crack cocaine, but Belton "tried ripping them off."
Glenn and Adams-Kinard will appear for an arraignment on Sept. 12 at 3:30 p.m. Both face charges of first-degree murder and two charges of first-degree robbery.
Spokane Police detectives need the public's help identifying a man who ran from a security guard last month, abandoning a backpack full of drugs as he fled.
The suspect was seen in the downtown area on Aug. 1 at 2:30 p.m., according to a news release. Police did not indicate the exact amount or how many drugs were in the man's backpack.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Drug Tip Line at 509-625-8210.

I like the photo.'
I believe your allium is not globemaster but christophii ( Stars of persia)
|My first pic is a wildflower, Indian Paint Brush I think.
Second is a wild thistle. And, the third one is a little grass that went to seed.
LOVE that angle on the poppy Ron.

Thanks all.

Thanks for the IDs on your photos.
I've never seen Indian Paint Brush before.
It reminds me of the native coneflowers we have around here.
I used to have 'Star of Persia', but it died out. It's a much larger globe, sometimes reaching 10+ inches in diameter. Its florets are spaced much farther apart:
Here's Allium, 'Gladiator' seedheads.
|Here's a Nigella/Love in the Mist seed pod!
I have Purple Sensation-Allium...I had cleaned them out of garden already for the pods...This is when they 1st came out...Sorry for shaky but I think I was just trying out a new lens...

The North Shore Animal League America, the world's largest no-kill adoption organization, is running a live stream of adoptable cats through December 6 called "Christmas Cats TV." For 8 hours a day, you can watch a wacky cat lady-type grandma and this weird dude dressed as an elf will run around with said adoptable cats -- we can only imagine the shenanigans that will ensure. Literally, all the elf-man does is roll around on the ground with multiple cats and sip out of a cat flask that he shares with grandma. How can I get this job?
It's all kind of weird but we somehow can't stop watching. What's better than watching fuzzy cats in Christmas sweaters do nothing?! Okay, maybe not-stop Christmas music, fuzzy cats and $1 million. But this will do for now. It truly is the most wonderful time of the year.
For more information about the adoptable cats, visit North Shore Animal League America.

Michigan's "Green Jobs Report" Wins National Award Report Finds Michigan Uniquely Positioned to Become Nation's Leading Green State by Diversifying Economy and Creating Jobs in Renewable Energy SectorContact: Mario L. Morrow 517-272-9280Agency: Licensing and Regulatory Affairs
JUNE 24, 2010 - Governor Jennifer M. Granholm announced today that the Michigan Department of Energy, Labor & Economic Growth received a national award for its "Green Jobs Report," which the state released last year in its first-ever scientific study on Michigan's role in the emerging green economy.
The award was presented at the National Labor Market Information (LMI) conference held in Minnesota and Michigan was one of the three category winners for the 2010 Product/Service Awards for Economic & Demographic Research. Accepting the award on behalf of DELEG, was Labor Market Information & Strategic Initiatives Director Rick Waclawek who led the team that prepared the report for Governor Granholm.
The "Green Jobs Report," only the second of its kind in the nation, defined the Michigan green economy as industries that provide products or services in five areas: renewable energy, increased energy efficiency, clean transportation and fuels, agriculture and natural resource conservation, and pollution prevention or environmental cleanup.
"The Green Jobs Report has generated international interest in our state," Granholm said. "Findings in the report underscore that Michigan is headed in the right direction by focusing on the emerging green economy and investing in a highly-educated workforce for clean energy jobs."
Michigan is accelerating workers' transition into new jobs through the Green Jobs Initiative. That initiative, part of the state's No Worker Left Behind program, is a $6 million investment of federal dollars designed to increase the number of green industries and businesses in Michigan.
Andy Levin, Michigan's Chief Workforce Officer and DELEG Deputy Director, said the report is an important baseline measure for tracking future green industry growth.
"Clean transportation and fuels are the largest green economy sector in Michigan, with 41 percent of green jobs. This reflects both our automotive heritage and a potential center of growth as hybrid and electric vehicles develop," Levin said. "While the report does not attempt to project green job growth, it suggests that there is huge potential for expansion over both the short and long term."
Most encouraging from the report, was that Michigan's 109,000-plus green jobs were already in place before Michigan adopted a requirement that 10 percent of our energy come from renewable sources by 2015.
DELEG Director Stanley "Skip" Pruss, who serves as Michigan's Chief Energy Officer, said, "We have laid an extensive groundwork to capitalize on clean energy technology on all fronts: solar and wind manufacturing, advanced battery storage and other renewable energy sources. As home to some of the world's most advanced energy companies, we are excited to forge new partnerships, and utilize new funding sources and tools that will advance Michigan as a leader among states embarking on an ambitious clean energy path."

Although ratings for Big Shots have not been good, given the writers' strike's impact on scripted programming, most networks have continued to air completed episodes for series that may have otherwise been canceled. ABC's freshman drama Women's Murder Club is still waiting for a verdict on its back-nine order, while Private Practice, Dirty Sexy Money, and Pushing Daisies have already received their full-season orders.

Scholarships help to draw students to Multnomah who might otherwise have been unable to attend. They also let students spend less time working; effectively allowing them more time to take advantage of the opportunities for spiritual development that Multnomah has to offer. It's students like these who take a Multnomah education and make a world of difference.
There are many reasons why scholarships make sense. There is great joy in facilitating the education of another person, Multnomah grows as our programs become more accessible to prospective students, and there can be significant tax savings for the donor.
Generally there are two types of scholarships:
Gifts of Stock, cash, tangible property such as real estate or gold can all be useful in funding scholarships.
For more information about starting your Multnomah scholarship, please contact:

2004 Lincoln Town Car Ultimate Review
a little more gas than normal japanese cars
Nice Car For People Who Like A Comfortable Trip On The Road — Nice car, very comfortable and reliable. It is a good choice for family use. It is very comfortable for both drivers and passangers. Yes it cost more gas than other cars but it worth. Not too many problems when you drive even though more than 15K miles.

Very good car, smooth and comfortable.

Nice Car For People Who Like A Comfortable Trip On The Road — Town Car looks not very fancy and fashion than those sports cars and maybe you think it is only good for old people. But it actually a very nice good, comfortable for both passangers and drivers. I am really like it even though I am only 26.

2004 Lincoln Town Car Signature Review
I have owned three Lincoln Town Cars and by far this has been my favorite. The only reason I am selling this car is that we are "downsizing" now that our sons are in college and I am needing a more economical vehicle. If you are looking for a stylish, comfortable, luxury car, this is it!!
The only negative I have about the Lincoln Town Car is the gas mileage. That said, for a large car, it istill gets decent mileage. I average around 17 in the city and 20 on the highway.
Love That Lincoln Luxury!! — The Lincoln Town Car is luxury at its best, especially when you are over six feet tall and so are your sons. We have enjoyed very much the comfort and luxury this car affords. I have been a Lincoln owner for many years (this is my third Town Car) and if they had continued to make the car, I might be inclined to get another. However, with the amount of driving I am doing these days, I need a car that gets more economical gas mileage. Other than that issue, this is hands down the best car I have ever owned!!!
Primary Use: Commuting to work

2004 Lincoln Town Car Ultimate Review
Looks great.
Hard to park.
Worth Checking Out — The Lincoln I drove was amazing. I never used more than 20% throttle, but you can definitely tell the power is there if you need it, as well as the breaking ability! You can feel the bumps in the road trough the steering wheel, but not the seats. The back seat passengers will have no idea when you run over a manhole cover. This car is quiet too! you can easily hold a conversation with some one in the back seat while your in the front. Everything felt solid to the touch, no flimsy plastic here! All leather or vinyl! If your looking for a car that can comfortably seat six adults and their luggage while getting better mileage than a suv, this might just be the car for you.

My springer spaniel Ollie is now 10 years old and he's still as rambunctious as ever. When Ollie was a puppy I lived in an apartment and worked long hours at my job (not the ideal situation when getting a puppy, I know). I took Ollie on long walks every morning and every evening to try and wear him out and so he could take care of his business. (more…)

Simple Steps to Potty Training Your Dog the Right Way
You've just recently brought home the newest addition to your family – that spunky, adorable little puppy that just loves to run around and play all day long. After reading through How to Puppy Proof Your Home, you've probably taken all the necessary steps to keep your puppy safe and prepare your home for his arrival. Now it's time for the hardest task of all: Puppy potty training. (more…)

What isn't Apple, audiobooks, or alcohol is probably cats.
There's not much about audiobooks (except how to buy them in the iTMS), but Apple's new iPod 101 is likely to be an extremely useful resource to all the many visitors who are coming here after getting an iPod for Xmas.
Just a quick note in case anyone is interested, I am selling off my old Mac (a PowerMac G4 with 1 gig of RAM and a large, fast SCSI disk; more details in the listing) on craigslist.org:
All things considered, I'd rather sell to someone I know, so if you're interested, let me know. (Quickly, it'll surely sell this week.)
Rochelle and I ate lunch today at a new restaurant called Medicine. The food is Japanese Zen monk vegan, called "new-shojin". The flavors are delicate, subtle, and quite good once your brain and palate adjust. And I thought I was at the Apple Store.
Our preferred method for obtaining audiobooks is from Audible.com. Second is from the public library. Third is buying them on MP3 CDs.
I upgraded to PGP Desktop 9 because the new version would finally work with Eudora on Mac OS X. All I had to do was install the new version, reboot, and the new automatic mode began immediately discovering and auto-enabling my email accounts as I used them.
Unfortunately, the automatic mode doesn't work so well if you are also using some kind of network tunnel, such as a VPN or ssh port forwarding, which is increasingly common for me as I take the laptop to clients or on the road. I thought I would document the configuration of manual proxy mode for Mac OS X users, since I found the documentation light in this area.
Phillip Torrone's Audible does Podcasts – the complete guide is a nice write-up of a new feature at Audible.com that supports the automatic download of periodic audible content. Although his article uses the very nice iPodder application to demonstrate the features, there's no reason why you can't use the built-in podcasting features of iTunes 4.9. Here are instructions and a couple of screenshots.
Since I write about Mac OS X so often, it seems mandatory to post something about Apple's announcement this week that they would be moving the Macintosh platform to use Intel microprocessors. Most of the insights and big ideas about this have already been written, so my thoughts are mostly about, well, me.
A while back I took advantage of a special running at Dell, to get one of these 20.1" flat panel LCD displays. It arrived a week later, and I've been using it as a second monitor off my laptop since then. The quality of the display is terrific. I dunno about doing color-calibrated print work, but as just extra screen space (which I've found I absolutely need to do web development productively), it's spectacular, and makes the built-in screen on my laptop seem dingy by comparison.
Rochelle and I have fallen in love with listening to books on our iPods. We've signed up for two books a month through Audible.com, and for me, that pace is actually pretty good. Rochelle goes through them faster, though, and recently started going to the SF Public Library to get more books to listen to. Importing them onto an iPod is not terribly intuitive. This post describes what I think is a fairly optimal process, using only iTunes to do the importing.
Michael Tsai brought to my attention that QUALCOMM is rewriting Eudora to update it to the latest Mac OS X technologies, etc. While it is exciting to know that Eudora for Mac OS is still supported by QUALCOMM, and even being modernized, I hope that QUALCOMM is appropriately cautious about making gratuitous UI changes. It may not be pretty, but the interface is highly usable.
John Siracusa has written his usual tour de force review of a major Mac OS X release, this time for Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger". For the technical Mac OS X user, and OS geeks in general, it does not get any better than Siracusa's reviews.
SpamSieve, by far the best anti-spam email tool I've used, was updated to version 2.3 yesterday. The biggest change listed was increased accuracy, due to improvements in the tokenizers and parsers. John Gruber reported that the beta versions were running at 99.9% accuracy for him, which is several tenths of a percent above where I'd peaked.
When you get more than one thousand spams a week, you live for a couple of tenths of a percent improvements. I of course upgraded immediately.

As you stand in the cold darkness of an Arizona night, waiting for dawn, you will have no comprehension of the enormity of the landscape in front of you. In the dull early light your first view of the Grand Canyon will be a flat, almost painterly composition. Then gradually the sky turns to blue and red, and golden sunlight starts to pick out details - first the edge of the far ridge, then the tallest pinnacles inside the canyon itself.
As the sun rises higher, more is revealed. Rock formations sculpted by years of erosion are illuminated, and long, convoluted shadows are cast on to giant screens formed by cliffs. Only when you notice details, such as a row of trees, or a flock of geese flying overhead, do you come to realize the true scale of the canyon. That far ridge might be 15 km away, and the mighty Colorado River - a mere stream viewed from above - is 1500 metres below.
Consisting of an inner and outer gorge, the canyon is some 450 km long in total, so it is impossible to try taking it all in at once. Far better to spend some time at one or two of the lookout points that punctuate the roads along the rim of the canyon and see the changing light from them. From Hopi Point, a short distance from the Grand Canyon Village, you can look both ways along the canyon, getting spectacular views of the scenery and watching it change colour throughout the day. You can also see the Colorado River looking deceptively small and tranquil far below.
There are a number of trails down into the canyon. Some of the longer ones will involve camping en route but you can hike down and back up in a day on others, such as Bright Angel Trail - provided you start early enough. However, even for this shorter trail, the park authorities recommend that you break your journey at Indian Garden campsite and spread your hike over two days. Remember, it will take twice as long to walk back up the trail as it took to walk down, and it's a hard uphill slog. Those not used to exercise can hire a mule to carry them, but the ride is fairly uncomfortable. Trail-walking provides some idea of the scale of the canyon. Distances become more real as you descend, and details of the scenery unfold around you. Soon the walls of the canyon tower above you, and you realize that the landmarks that looked so close from the rim take hours to reach.
The canyon receives over a million visitors a year, although most stay only a few hours and tend to congregate on the more accessible south rim. To avoid the worst of the crowds, visit in spring or autumn. Although it will be cold at night and in the mornings, the air is clearer and you can observe the canyon in very different conditions. The weather can change suddenly, giving clear blue skies one day and a white-out blizzard the next. However, the great depth of the Canyon leads to huge temperature variations between the top and the bottom, so in the course of one day you might walk through heavy snow at the top and hot sunshine at the bottom.
The nearest major airport to the Grand Canyon is at Flagstaff, a couple of hours' drive away from the south rim. If you are coming from Las Vegas you can fly directly to Grand Canyon airport at Tusayan. There is a free bus service around the park. but hiring a car is recommended as it will give you more freedom to explore. Grand Canyon Village offers a range of accommodation. but as it is all run by the same company there is little competition in pricing. The best place there is El Tovar Lodge, which is right on the rim. It gets very booked up, though, so make a reservation well in advance.

Dale Horn first began taking photograph portraits in 1988, and in the following decades he's begun to specialize in candid portrayals of graduating seniors, families, children, and weddings. Dale works in a relaxed setting that puts his subjects at ease, making portrait sessions fun even as he captures defining characteristics of individuals, families, or children. He harnesses years of creative knowledge to turn images of people into works of art, patiently waiting for the right facial expression to capture the subject's personality.
British ex-pat and award-winning photographer David Simm counts celebrities, business tycoons, and the Archbishop of Canterbury among his former clientele, and currently holds the title of chief executive of the Professional Wedding Photographers Network. Stateside, the artist supplements his nuptial snapshots with family portraits and corporate photography. A master of composition, color, and restoration, Simm also sells instructional programs that cover Photoshop, proper lighting, handling multicultural weddings, and preventing photobombs from quirky uncles.
We are an advertising studio. We shoot ads and book models for those ads. We also work with agents and casting directors nation wide. We shoot corporate and industrial photography, catalogs, billboards, buses, and any and all promotional material.
With a showroom full of materials and an impressive body of work that hangs in buildings such as the Trump Tower, Creative Edge helps clients turn bare walls into conversation pieces. Each Creative Edge consultant brings at least 10 years of professional experience to projects, ensuring that every frame perfectly complements its portrait, landscape, or recursive picture of picture frames. These experts also handle 3-D projects, creating shadowbox showpieces for items such as plates, sports memorabilia, medals, and dried flowers. Before settling on a design, clients can peruse the showroom to get creative juices flowing. The showroom offers samples of more than 3,000 different mouldings made from materials that range from classic solid woods to reclaimed roofing supplies, and the gallery features fine-art lithographs, giclées, and original multimedia pieces.
Betty Stuart always had a talent for documentation. After graduating from Northwestern University's prestigious Medill School of Journalism in 1940, Stuart applied her shrewd journalistic eye to the field of photography. As she took on more professional jobs, she honed her skills behind the lens and learned how to blend into the background of weddings and other events so as not to interfere with candid moments.
Before long, Stuart joined forces with her husband, John Boyd Rodgers, to found Stuart-Rodgers Photography. The nascent company soon added corporate, commercial, and school photography to its list of services and, due to high demand for the couple's innovative journalistic approach, expanded to three locations throughout Chicagoland. Today, Stuart-Rodgers's team of professional photographers maintains elements of Stuart's original photographic vision in every shot, including her knack for capturing angles that draw attention away from subjects' unflattering tentacles.
Ever since they met while participating in a photo shoot at Illinois State University, Mark and Kathy Shangraw have been pooling their respective talents. Mark, a certified professional photographer, approaches each portrait with an eye toward storytelling?a skill he picked up while working as a photojournalist in Narnia. In 2013, he became a Master Photographer, an honor awarded only to the top 1% of professional photographers worldwide.
While Mark snaps pictures, Kathy takes charge of the behind-the-scenes details, from administrative tasks and marketing to arranging flowers and coaxing relaxed smiles out of clients. Together, they strive to render artistic family portraits and professional photos for dancers, musicians, and athletes. In addition to attending conferences and workshops, they often hone their skills by collaborating with other seasoned shutterbugs.

Solvay Commissions Largest PEM Fuel Cell
10:25 AM MST | February 6, 2012 | Alex Scott
Solvay joint venture SolVin has commissioned a 1 MW proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell at its production complex at Antwerp. The PEM fuel cell, which Solvay describes as a "demonstration" unit, is the largest of its kind in the world, Solvay says. SolVin, a producer of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC) is 75% owned by Solvay and 25% owned by BASF. The PEM fuel cell is being used to convert hydrogen (H2) generated as a byproduct at the site into electricity. The fuel cell already has been generating electricity "at...

text: John Stamos has played a hunky teenager (on General Hospital), a hunky rock star (on CBS' short-lived Dreams), and a hunky uncle (he's starting his fifth season on ABC's hit Full House). But on Oct. 13 at 9 p.m., the 28-year-old dark-haired heartthrob will be slipping into a decidedly un-hunky role as a sadistic kidnapper and rapist on ABC's Captive, a TV movie based on the criminal career of Robert Knott, who is currently serving multiple life sentences in a federal prison for a 1988 crime spree in the Northwest. ''During filming,'' Stamos recalls, ''I stayed up till 3 or 4 in the morning to get that bedraggled look. I didn't wash my hair for three weeks. My costars could tell you that I didn't exactly smell great.'' At first, Captive's producers were skeptical that the squeaky-clean Stamos could play such an unsavory part. So Stamos campaigned to convince them, meeting the producers in a swank L.A. restaurant in his grubbiest outfit. ''I wanted to show that I'm not just this coiffed, motorcycle-riding, girl-chasing, rock & roll guy,'' he says. Now that Stamos has gotten the grunge out of his system, what's his next extracurricular activity? ''For the moment, I'm a homebody,'' he says. ''I've been on the celibate and sober tour for three months.'' Staying home Saturday nights, no doubt, to wash his hair.

Well I was sure of which kind of tree frog I wanted until I came to this forum. lol I have a 33 gallon, tall terrarium that has a waterfall and live plants. I think either would be good in there. I think the White's would be easier and fun but I think the Red Eyed are beautiful and peaceful. I just don't know what to choose. What does the group think?
I had to go for the red eyed. i like animals that climb and live i trees. if the poison dart frog was a tree frog then i would of voted for dart frog.
Thanks, I did finally decide and got the red eye tree frogs. As little as I have gotten to see them awake, I get so excited when they are. I watch their every move. I like them a lot and I hope I never get bored with them.
Whites tree frogs sound like fun and I think I will consider them as my future frogs and enjoy my Red-Eyed Leaf Frog's for their lifespan. (I know RETS's don't last more than a few years...) Thanks!
Some darts do climb very well and breed off of the ground.

Hillary Clinton and State Dept. to Celebrate War Criminal Henry Kissinger, While the White House Repeats His Deadly Mistakes
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Nothing more symbolizes how the temptations of power can corrupt youthful values and idealism than Secretary Hillary Clinton's invitation to Henry Kissinger and Richard Holbrooke to keynote a major State Department conference on the history of the Indochina war. As an idealistic college student, Clinton protested Kissinger's mass murder of civilians in Indochina. She knows full well that had the international laws protecting civilians in war been applied to Kissinger's bombing of civilian targets in Indochina he would have been indicted for crimes of war.
But on Sept. 29 she will introduce Kissinger at the State Department Historian's conference, giving him a platform to continue 40 years of Orwellian deception in which he has sought to blame Congress for the fall of Indochina rather than accepting responsibility for his massive miscalculations and indifference to human suffering.
Clinton has also invited Richard Holbrooke, who as State Department head of Afghanistan/Pakistan policy has learned nothing from history and is repeating precisely the same policies that caused the U.S. to lose in Indochina -- support of a corrupt and unpopular regime that cannot stand on its own. Inviting Holbrooke is particularly egregious, because following Obama's strategy review, according to Bob Woodward's new book, "perhaps the most pessimistic view came from Richard Holbrooke. "It can't work," he said. Lacking even a fraction of the integrity and moral courage of a Daniel Ellsberg, Holbrooke continues to promote in public a policy he privately believes is doomed to fail.
Inviting Kissinger to keynote a conference on U.S. history in Indochina insults history, the memories of tens of thousands of Americans and countless Indochinese civilians who needlessly died as a result of his policies, the young people of America who desperately need to learn the truth about what occurred in Indochina so as not to repeat it, and all those who oppose indiscriminate mass murder of civilians.
Giving Kissinger and Holbrooke a platform also has important policy implications for the present.
An attempt is currently being made to build support for today's war-making in Afghanistan and Pakistan by claiming that the U.S. lost in Indochina because Congress cut aid to Thieu. This view is being articulated not only by Kissinger and other Nixon-era officials but a younger cadre of military officers, most notably Lt. Colonel Louis Sorley in his book A Better War -- which has been, according to the Wall Street Journal, "recommended in multiple lists put out by military officers, including a former U.S. commander in Afghanistan, who passed it out to his subordinates."
As President Obama was considering Afghan policy last fall, Newsweekreported that "Louis Sorley's book argues ... that the military was stabbed in the back by its civilian leaders ... the United States could have won in Vietnam if only the U.S. Congress hadn't cut off military aid to South Vietnam. The most surprising guidance Vietnam may have to offer (to Afghanistan) is not that wars of this kind are unwinnable but that they can produce victories if presidents resist the temptation to fight wars halfway or on the cheap."
Sorley's contention is absurd. The evidence is overwhelming that the Thieu regime lost to its enemies because it was a corrupt and unpopular police-state, and its troops were far less motivated to fight than those of the other side. U.S. military aid to Saigon in 1974-'75 was two to four times as great as Soviet and Chinese aid to the North Vietnamese, and the Thieu army was well supplied with ammunition and fuel up to the very end.
Kissinger's mistake in Vietnam, like the Obama/Petraeus policy in Afghanistan today, was to try and prop up an unpopular and corrupt government that could not stand on its own. It is not Congress but Kissinger and Presidents Ford and Nixon who bear the responsibility for the fall of Saigon.
Henry Kissinger's Record in Indochina
Henry Kissinger managed U.S. policy in Indochina as National Security Adviser for Richard Nixon and Secretary of State for Gerald Ford, from January 20 1969 until the fall of Saigon on April 30 1975. During this time Kissinger needlessly prolonged U.S. war-making in which 20,853 Americans were killed and an officially U.S.-estimated 7,860,013 Indochinese were murdered, maimed or made homeless. That's right. The policies Kissinger orchestrated created nearly eight million war victims, almost as much as the 8,745,207 Indochinese victims created by Lyndon Johnson when 550,000 U.S. troops were based in South Vietnam.
Kissinger orchestrated the most massive bombing in world history, dropping 3,984,563 million tons on an area inhabited by some 50 million people, twice the 2 million tons dropped on hundreds of millions through Europe and the Pacific in World War II. He dropped 1.6 million tons on South Vietnam, as many as Lyndon Johnson at the height of U.S. involvement; quadrupled the bombing of Laos, from 454,200 to 1,628,900 million tons; initiated widespread bombing of previously peaceful Cambodia, including B52 carpet bombing of undefended villages, for a total of 600,000-1million tons; and vastly expanded the bombing of civilian targets in North Vietnam.
Much of this bombing struck civilian targets.
In Laos, where I interviewed over 1,000 refugees from the Plain of Jars, every single one said their villages had been destroyed by U.S. bombing which escalated tremendously in 1969, and that the main victims were civilians because the soldiers could move through the thick forests largely undetected, while old people, mothers and children were forced to stay near their villages.
In Cambodia, Kissinger told Alexander Haig to undertake "a massive bombing campaign in Cambodia. Anything that flies or anything that moves," the clearest possible violation of international law requiring the protection of civilians. Two million people in Khmer Rouge zones, as estimated by the U.S. Embassy, were driven underground by massive U.S. bombing that featured regular B52 carpet-bombing of undefended villages.
In North Vietnam, Kissinger conducted the most savage B52 bombing of urban targets in history, as the New York Times reported in 1972: "United States military leaders are being permitted to wage the air war as they want in Indochina. There appears to be less concern with the civilians this time in view of the freedom given the air commanders and the attempt to cut off food, clothing and medical supplies." Kissinger boasted to Richard Nixon, "It's wave after wave of planes. You see, they can't see the B52 and they dropped a million pounds of bombs ... I bet you we will have had more planes over there in one day than Johnson had in a month ... each plane can carry about 10 times the load of World War II plane could carry."
Kissinger orchestrated the U.S. invasion of Cambodia, a disastrous miscalculation that led directly to the Khmer Rouge takeover five years later. I visited Cambodia in April 1970, shortly after the U.S. supported Lon Nol in overthrowing Prince Sihanouk. U.S. Embassy officials then estimated there were no more than 100 Khmer Rouge, and were not even sure that Khmer Rouge leaders Khieu Samphan or Ieng Sary were alive. As William Shawcross wrote in Sideshow: Kissinger, Nixon and the Destruction of Cambodia, it was Kissinger's overthrowing Sihanouk, supporting the corrupt and unpopular Lon Nol regime and massive bombing that created the Khmer Rouge and brought it to power. Kissinger then compounded his brutality by supporting the genocidal Khmer Rouge, telling the Thai Foreign Minister on November 26, 1975, that "you should also tell the Cambodians [i.e. Khmer Rouge government] that we will be friends with them. They are murderous thugs, but we won't let that stand in the way. We are prepared to improve relations with them. Tell them the latter part, but don't tell them what I said before."
Kissinger diverted billions of dollars in Food for Peace, meant to feed the starving, to the Thieu and Lon Nol armies. He violated the U.S. constitution by secretly bombing Cambodia and Laos without Congressional authorization. And his representatives regularly perjured themselves before Congress, as when U.S. Ambassador to Laos testified to the Kennedy Subcommittee on Refugees on April 22, 1971, that the U.S. only bombed military targets in Laos.
Who Lost Indochina: Kissinger or Congress?

Today's task that Shelly of Prairie Moon Quilts has asked us to do is:
Organize something.
My sewing room was in bad shape, with doing that pansy quilt. I'd had to move things so I could access the full length of my design board, and lay it all out. I really wanted to start the New Year with a cleaned-up room. So I picked it to organize. This is what it was like this morning....just a crazy mess! I could barely get into my machine and computer, there to the left; it just was not working!
So after working all day on this, with the help of my hubby, this is what it looks like now:
Ahhhh, much better! What we did...
- moved the change table down and put the larger sewing desk in it's place.
- put the smaller desk at the end wall, so I could put a desk with my laptop beside it.
- moved the drafting table back to being against the design board, and rearranged the bins underneath it.
I do have a pile of mending and some other junk not in view, but that's out of the room for now, and hopefully I'll go through that soon. Just to have the center space to move about in again, will be nice!
I'm so glad to get this done!
I'm beat, so the dishes and laundry will wait till tomorrow!

Making Scientific Instruments in the Industrial Revolution
Ashgate, Jan 1, 2007 - History - 408 pages
"This book looks at the four main, and two lesser, English centres known for instrument production outside the capital: Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield, along with the older population centres in Bristol and York. Making use of new sources, Dr. Morrison-Low charts the growth of these centres and provides a characterization of their products. New information is provided on aspects of the trade, especially marketing techniques, sources of materials, tools and customer relationships. From contemporary evidence, she argues that the principle output of the provincial trade (with some notable exceptions) must have been into the London marketplace, anonymously, and at the cheaper end of the market. She also discusses the structure and organization of the provincial trade, and looks at the impact of new technology imported from other closely-allied trades.".

You're Not Warren Buffett, So Don't Invest Like Him
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) --Warren Buffett continues to buy small-town newspapers. These moves might prompt investors to follow Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B)into the trade. Don't do it.
I tire of hearing investors, from the retail to professional level, refer to themselves as "Warren Buffett disciples." You're as much a disciple of Warren Buffett as I am the literary offspring of William Gibson.
It's dangerous to mimic somebody like Buffett.
You likely do not have access to all of the components of a deal Buffett makes. Consider the newspaper acquisitions.Buffett makes a reasonable argument: In these small towns, community life centers around newspapers. The newspaper remains the go-to and, quite often, the only choice for the news locals crave. That makes sense, but is incongruent with Buffett's ownership of the Buffalo News and recent purchase of his hometown paper, the Omaha World-Herald. These aren't necessarily small towns. Bottom line -- Buffett can afford to gamble on these properties. You and I likely cannot. He can afford this, not simply because he's filthy rich, but because he can work deals to which the rest of us do not have access. For example, when Buffett spent $142 million to buy local newspapers from Media General (MEG), he got more than the newspapers. Buffett loaned Media General millions, at a 10.5% interest rate, and took a 20% ownership stake in the company via penny warrants. Simply put, he got a sweet deal. In typical Buffett fashion, he wins even if he loses. Maybe his bet on small-town newspapers will end up flat or fizzle, but he still managed to effectively loan shark Media General. Here's a company bleeding cash and losing money (about $3.68 per share) looking to transform itself. It has about $12 million in cash and more than $658 million in debt. Buffett takes dying newspapers off of Media General's hands as it embarks on efforts to step into the digital century. Good luck. Keep an eye on Lee Enterprises (LEE), and not because you should buy the stock. It's in a situation that's pretty similar to Media General. It loses money, but has even more debt - close to $1 billion worth.
