Visitors to Bathgate in West Lothian will find loads of interesting information on the history of the town at the Bennie Museum, situated in two restored cottages on Mansefield Street. The origins of the town date back to the early 12th century, although the land on which Bathgate is situated, as well as the surrounding area, is thought to have been occupied as far back as 3500 BC. The Bennie Museum has some relics related to the area's ancient history, including some Roman coins, but most of the items on display relate to the past two or three hundred years of Bathgate's history and the industries that came and went over the years.

Situated in the Perthshire village of Birnam, the Beatrix Potter Garden pays tribute to the 19th century author and illustrator of children's books that continue to entertain little ones around the world today. Her stories have been retold in ballet, song, film, and animation, and her instantly recognizable characters and their woodland surroundings appear on countless items of merchandise. Visitors to the Beatrix Potter Garden will recognize many, if not all, the sculptured characters scattered throughout the beautifully maintained and tranquil grounds.

Located within the Cairngorms National Park and surrounding beautiful Loch Morlich, the Glenmore Forest Park is one of the remnants of Scotland's Caledonian Forest consisting primarily of old-growth Scots pines descended directly from the first pines that grew in Scotland after the ice-age, as far back as 7,000 BC. Changing weather patterns over the centuries, along with human encroachment, has resulted in the trees adapting to their various environments, and visitors exploring Glenmore Forest Park may want to bear in mind that they are walking among trees that represent a sequence of natural evolution spanning 9,000 years.

Stretching over twenty acres alongside the River Almond, near Livingston, Almond Valley offers a superb venue for a family outing - 361 days of the year, rain or shine. Visitors to Almond Valley will have a host of activities to choose from, with something to appeal to every age group. History buffs will appreciate the fact that the 18th century buildings of the original Livingston Mill and farm have been restored and remain an integral part of the site, serving as the tearoom, indoor play areas and home to some of the farm's smaller animals. More modern buildings house the reception, main museum and various display areas, with the railway station nearby where visitors can board the train for a ride on a narrow-gauge track.

Housed in a stately old school building near Edinburgh Castle, the Scotch Whisky Experience offers fascinating insight into the history, development and distilling of Scotland's iconic beverage. Visitors can stop by and examine the various displays at leisure, but to get the full benefit of a visit to the Scotch Whisky Experience it a good idea to join one of the guided interactive tours of the museum. There are four tours to choose from – Silver, Gold, Platinum and Taste of Scotland – as well as master-classes for more dedicated whisky enthusiasts and educational tours for groups of school children and students.

With the spectacular pine forests of the Scottish Highlands as their home, Scottish crossbills are the only known endemic bird species in the whole of the United Kingdom. In fact, they are believed to be the only endemic vertebrates in the UK, and were identified as being a unique species in August 2006 based on their distinctive birdsong. The population of Scottish crossbills is estimated at around 6,800 breeding pairs and they are considered to be of 'least concern' by the IUCN from a conservation standpoint, while having 'amber' status with the RSPB.

Located between the villages of Dunmore and Airth, in the Falkirk Council area of Scotland, is a most unusual 18th century building dubbed the Dunmore Pineapple. The building with its large pineapple-shaped cupola forms part of the walled gardens at Dunmore Park, and was built in 1761 by John Murray, the 4th Earl of Dunmore, for his wife Charlotte. The top of the pineapple stands well above the surrounding walls and has four large vases surrounding it. The vases cleverly conceal chimneys for a heating system that was used to create a microclimate within the high garden walls to enable the cultivation of exotic plants, such as pineapples.
A Tribute to Old Tom Morris
A Tribute to Old Tom Morris
With the prestigious Ryder Cup set to take place on the PGA Centenary Course at the Gleneagles Hotel near Auchterarder in Perthshire on 26-28 September 2014, it seems fitting to pay tribute to the man widely considered to be the 'Father of Golf' in Scotland, Tom Mitchell Morris, affectionately known as Old Tom Morris. Although golf had been played in Scotland for centuries before Tom Morris arrived in the world on 16 June 1821, he is rightly credited with developing golf into the sport currently played internationally.

Named in honor of the patron saint of Glasgow, the St Mungo Museum is housed in a Scottish baronial style building which was built in 1989 by Ian Begg. The majestic stone and mortar structure was designed in keeping with the architecture of the ancient Bishops' Castle which once stood on the site, blending with historical buildings in the area. While the museum is named for the man who brought Christianity to Scotland in the 6th century, it is dedicated to religion in its various forms, as practiced around the world, and in different time frames. Located across from the oldest house in Glasgow, the Provand's Lordship, and next to the medieval Glasgow Cathedral, the St Mungo Museum is a worthwhile addition to an itinerary when exploring the largest city in Scotland.

With Christmas and New Year having passed, this is now one of the quietest times of year for the hospitality industry. Accommodation prices - at least for those that stay open during this period - drop significantly during January and February, before ramping up again as the Easter break approaches. If you can stretch to it after the festivities, this is often an ideal time to grab a bargain break. Here's a few of the offers that have caught our attention.
Dalmeny Park Country House Hotel is located just outside Barrhead, south of Glasgow. This 4-star hotel features some delightful, traditionally decorated rooms and is within easy reach of Glasgow city centre and the airport. Prices right now are very attractive, starting from just £40 per night.
The Doubletree by Hilton Aberdeen City Centre is a 4-star hotel located towards the coast of the granite city, but (as the name implies!) within easy reach of the middle of town. It features a spa, pool and wellness centre, and guests have praised the well-equipped gym and good-sized beds. It's currently priced from just £49 per night.
The lavish 5-star Scotsman in Edinburgh is currently available for as low as £98 per night (it's normally well above £100), so if you fancy treating yourself it has everything you'd expect from a top-notch hotel, including an on-site gym, pool, sauna and spa, and of course mini bars in the rooms!
Finally, the Aston Hotel in Dumfries is a very nicely appointed 3-star hotel which has been particularly noted by guests for the quality of its dining. Features include free Wi-Fi, air conditioned rooms, dry cleaning and banquet facilities. Prices currently start from just £39 per night.

The 2013 summer season coming to an end, and with it we've begun to notice some significant drops in accommodation prices as Scottish hotels, B&Bs and guest houses look to fill unoccupied rooms.

Star Attractions - how useful are accommodation ratings?
It's probably the first thing we look for when booking a place to stay, the star rating of the accommodation in question. Five stars leap out at us, screaming opulent luxury, one star surely means things will be pretty basic and spartan. Anything in between we'll judge accordingly. But are we judging too quickly, and just how much information can you gleam from those five-prong sets?

Snow storm...
Anyone else think of comfort food when snowed in?? On the news this afternoon they said in addition to bread and milk, bacon and ice cream where top sellers when a storm moves in.
LC options this time around include a nice juicy burger with cheese, mushrooms and onions.
Oh yay! It used to be for Me to load up on junk food like chips, candy and pop. We haven't had Any snow this yr and i'm sad!
a nice pot of soup
some oopsies or revolution rolls for sandwiches/burgers
something chocolate, like clouds w/cocoa in them, or a cocoa flax muffin
hot drinks
a crunchy thing like cheesy crackers or fried pepperoni.
Actually, the clouds are too addictive to get snowed in with. Maybe a chocolate protein powder shake made with cream and almond milk.
make it a bunch of stuff that doesn't require cooking too! power outages are a drag.
A fatty roast cooked in the crock pot all day, or some southwest taco soup
I always make stuff that I can eat without heating if the power goes out... I had muffins, shrimp, chicken salad, spinach salad and filled the thermos with coffee before bed. I could cook on the grill or the camp stove, if I wanted, but it was windy and miserable out there and I didn't want to!
I shoveled snow for 4 hours straight yesterday. Now we have another 2-4 inches coming and freezing rain right behind it. :stars: I was down a lb. today from all that shoveling though. :up:

Isis Cove
( http://shamanicbreathwork.org/isis-cove )
Isis Cove sits on 45+ acres of unspoiled land in the magical, beautiful, blue mountains of western North Carolina, one hour west of Asheville near Cherokee, and is blessed by the spirits who are the guardians of this sacred land. The land is graced by a creek and a pond full of fish. Many animals make their home here, including foxes, opossums, raccoons, squirrels, rabbits, lizards, snakes, turtles, hawks, owls,wild turkeys,crows, woodpeckers, turkey vultures and a variety of songbirds. Bear tracks have been seen high up on the mountain and we sometimes hear coyotes howling and the cry of a bobcat.
Isis Cove is both an intentional community and the home of the Venus Rising Association for Transformation and Venus Rising University. The Isis Cove community was founded in 2003 by Venus Rising founders and directors, Brad Collins and Star Wolf. Their long held vision of spiritual community has manifested in these magical mountains.
Currently 20 people live at Isis Cove full time. Several others have purchased lots; some will be living here part time while others plan on moving to the community at some time in the future. Several other members of our soul family live on land surrounding Isis Cove. Some people, finding themselves in transition, have come to live at or near the Cove for a period of time. Community life shared with like-minded individuals is part of the benefit of living at Isis Cove.
The Isis Cove Retreat Center hosts the workshops and retreats sponsored by Venus Rising as well as other spiritual organizations, including the Shamanic Priestess Process, founded by community member Anyaa McAndrew. The Isis Retreat House is a quaint and comfortable five bedroom house with three full bathrooms, a large kitchen, an inviting front porch perfect for relaxing on warm summer nights. Near to the house and under the pine trees is an 800 square foot deck perfect for exercise and/or meditation. The Art Temple is open to all who visit the Cove and provides a comfortable and quiet space for personal time. There are areas for walking, enjoyable nature spots and inviting outside spaces for meditation and quiet contemplation.
Most Venus Rising workshops are held in the Sanctuary, a beautifully appointed free-standing building that is a comfortable and secure space for soul journeyers to explore their inner landscape. The Sanctuary is the spiritual home of Venus Rising and the location for most of our rituals and ceremonies. Isis Cove is a special place. The land is alive and the spirits are active. The vortexes are strong and the air is rich with magic. The Cove spins a cocoon of safety and comfort whereby all who visit may sink into their hearts and open to the call of their soul.
The Sanctuary and the Isis Cove Retreat House are available for workshops and retreats. Call 828–631-2305 for more information.

HEC Paris And IBM Create New MBA Curriculum Focused On Big Data/Business Analytics
PARIS, Oct. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- With support from IBM (NYSE: IBM), HEC Paris introduces a new MBA curriculum for the 2013 academic year designed to prepare students for the growing number of careers requiring Big Data and analytics skills.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20090416/IBMLOGO )
Through this partnership, IBM will provide HEC Paris with access to IBM's Big Data and analytics software solutions, course material and IBM data scientists who will visit classes as guest lecturers and engineers.
The new MBA program from HEC aims to develop leaders who are able to identify new growth opportunities within "Big Data" — or the quintillion bytes of information generated daily from such sources as sensors, RFID networks, mobile devices and social media. Thus, students will improve their IT skills and meet analytics and data management specialists such as engineers and scientists. The first European MBA in Business Analytics is a result of this joint initiative." The development of analytics skills for business and management students has become a necessity. It deals with mixing the general MBA's business training to more in-depth analytics and data interpretation skills in order to improve decision making and the ability to innovate," declares Associate Dean for the HEC Paris MBA Program Bernard Garrette. A Lack of Analytics Skills Nowadays, analytics skills are increasingly sought after, as employers in every industry seek out job candidates who can uncover insights from data to solve problems, act on findings, enter new markets, deepen engagement with customers. However, there is a gap between the growing number of jobs that require data-driven skills and the available pool of job candidates who can fulfil these roles. Indeed, this abundant volume of data is far from being exploited. Only one in ten businesses has the required skills to use state-of-the-art technology in the field of Big Data and analytics 1. This lack of graduates and adequately trained professionals is hampering the adoption of new Big Data and analytics technologies, which in turn hinders decision making and competitive advantage.

Wounded war vets find diving in Keys therapeutic

McClatchy Newspapers
KEY WEST, Fla. — Scott Schroeder had just finished a dive at the Western Sambo Ecological Reserve off Key West, but before climbing onto the boat, the U.S. Army man of 24 years — 20 of them with the elite Special Forces — needed help.
"Could somebody get my leg?" he asked.
About 25 feet below, resting on the ocean's bottom, was one of his sea prostheses, with a flipper attached. His other artificial sea leg was dangling from what remains of his right thigh.
Schroeder, 45, was laughing about his dilemma.
A positive attitude goes a long way in recovering from injuries as grave as the ones he suffered just seven months ago in Afghanistan when the modified Humvee he was riding in ran over a roadside bomb.
Schroeder's world changed in that instant. So did his family's.
"Yes, I was injured," the chief warrant officer said. "But the whole family was really injured, too. I was willing to accept the risk and the sacrifices. They didn't choose it."
Healing as a family is why Schroeder, his wife of 23 years, Laura, and their 16-year-old son, Zach, were in Key West, taking part in the Task Force Dagger Foundation's recreational therapy program.
Task Force Dagger was the code name for the Special Operations Unit formed shortly after 9/11 and charged with bringing down the Taliban regime and denying sanctuary to al-Qaida, said Keith David, volunteer managing director of the Texas-based nonprofit, which was established in 2009.
In just two years, the foundation has helped 112 wounded Special Operations soldiers and their families on a shoestring budget of $95,000.
"I think the Special Operations soldier is a lot of time very focused, very driven, almost always a Type A person," David said. "When they fall down, they keep getting up, and they don't give up."
That is the case of the 10 wounded warriors, who along with 15 family members were in the Keys learning or relearning to dive with lost limbs and other injuries as therapy for body and soul.
"They don't want pity; they are professional soldiers," said David, a member of the U.S. Army Special Forces for 15 years. "They just are trying to learn a new skill."
Schroeder, who served on the same team as David in the 1990s, had talked to his old friend in 2009 about how he could help the foundation.
"I never thought I would be on the receiving end," he said.
Less than a year ago, Schroeder deployed to Afghanistan, his first tour of duty there since 2001, when he was part of the original Task Force Dagger operation.
Between those deployments, he had served in Iraq on more missions than he can count, sometimes spending four months in Iraq, four months home.
He had suffered minor injuries, but on Dec. 9 he almost lost his life in Zabul Province in southern Afghanistan.
"We were going village by village by village, working hard to have the Afghanis take control of their own lives," Schroeder said.
Several other Humvees had driven over or past the roadside bomb. "I think it went off right under me," he said.
He remembers losing one leg in the explosion and about 20 minutes later being carried onto a helicopter. He woke up days later at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, his wife at his side. He soon learned he also had lost his other leg above the knee and that his right arm was so damaged it might require amputation.
From that moment, he had a new mission: to get better. For six months, with his wife, son and parents taking turns to ensure round-the-clock support, Schroeder focused on saving his arm and learning to walk on prostheses.
The family diving trip to the Keys became a highlighted date on the calendar.
"When your whole life revolves around the hospital, something like this trip can become a milestone you mentally focus on," said Laura Schroeder, who left her job as a landscaping architect in Clarksville, Tenn., to be at her husband's side as he recovered in Bethesda, Md.
"We knew in July we were going to the beach and learning to scuba dive. It's something we always wanted to take Zach to do."
Before his first open-water dive, the teenager said he was hoping to see a shark.
Mother and son, along with several other Task Force Dagger Foundation participants, began classes in a pool, graduating to the warm waters of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.
Scott Schroeder was certified to dive in 1989, in the Red Sea, but he hadn't been diving since 2002. Now, he had to negotiate the underwater world with artificial legs and a right arm that has limited use.
"Up until about a month ago, I didn't know if I could do it," he said. "You have your hesitations about getting into the water. But yeah, I can do it. And I'm just glad my family is here with me to spend this time doing therapy together."
The last seven months have been a rollercoaster for the Schroeders. Scott said there were days he felt like he had frostbite in his toes, even though his legs now stop halfway down his thigh.
Laura calls herself the eternal optimist, and doesn't know why her husband suffered this horrible fate just at the time he was contemplating retirement.
"Laura and I agreed we both could have a bad day," Schroeder said. "We just couldn't have it together."
But Tuesday was a good day for the whole family, even if Scott's sea legs didn't stay on underwater.
Laura and Zach practiced dive skills with their instructor before exploring the patch reef. Soon, dad and son were looking under coral together at lionfish.
There would be no shark sightings on this dive, but the family went on several more before returning to Maryland, where Scott will resume his rehabilitation.
When he shows proficiency with the artificial legs he has now, he will be fitted for ones that have movable knees for more mobility. He hopes to get close to his old height of 6 feet.
"They say the technology has come a long way," Schroeder said. "But to me, they still seem archaic."
At Walter Reed, Schroeder met Vice President Joseph Biden, now-retired Defense Secretary Robert Gates and members of his beloved Chicago Blackhawks, who brought him a signed jersey and showed off their Stanley Cup.
Sen. Richard Lugar, who is from Schroeder's native Indiana, also paid him a visit. Lugar offered to sponsor Zach for the Senate page program. The teenager wasn't convinced at first, but he is going to give it a try.
"We are sticking together as a family, no matter where we are at," Scott Schroeder said.
Now that he has been able to conquer the sea without legs, Schroeder said his next quest is to sky-dive again. He jumped from a whopping 27,000 feet while on infiltration missions.
"The Army has been a great life," Schroeder said. "I stayed in way past retirement because I wanted to be on the team. That's all I've known how to do. Now, especially with the injuries, I don't know what I am going to do for a second career."

Willow Creek
Description: Jim, an ardent Bigfoot believer, and long-suffering girlfriend Kelly head deep into Six Rivers National Forest in Northern California, video camera in tow, to the site of the Patterson-Gimlin film, a1967 fragment of footage purporting to show Sasquatch. They first stop in Willow Creek, the Bigfoot capital of the world, where various locals talk to Jim's camera, warning them to keep out of the woods. That night Jim and Kelly are awakened by mysterious sounds that might be Bigfoot but might also be locals messing with them. Either way, they're not welcome here and so Jim and Kelly decide to leave at dawn if it's not already too late.

Authorities are looking for a Brooklyn teenager with mild developmental disabilities who went missing Friday afternoon.
The mother of 14-year-old Eliceo Cortez says he was last seen at a pizzeria with two other boys a couple of blocks from his high school in Manhattan Beach.
His friends say he got on the B49 bus and left.
His mother says he always comes straight to their Flatbush-Ditmas Park home but didn't this time.
She says this is the first time he's ever gone missing.
Eliceo is described as 6 feet, 1 inch tall.
He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a black T-shirt, gray hooded sweatshirt and black high-top Converse sneakers.
He also has a long scar down his back.
Anyone with information on the case should contact the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS, or text CRIMES and then enter TIP577, or visit www.nypdcrimestoppers.com.

Plus: Jay Leno helped Emma Stone's New Year's resolution to dance more come true, and more, on our daily late-night roundup.
From 'Zoolander' to 'Trading Places.'
At only 14-years-old, she's putting the more experienced red carpetters to shame.
"We always cast him in the submissive female role."
But Tom Hooper lost to David Fincher.
Surprises! Bad behavior! Christopher Nolan!
'The Rite' opened to $15 million, or $4 million less than expected.
Vulture's taken a look at the newest crop of contenders and the careful narrative crafted for each.
Though 'The Dilemma' still placed second.
Oh, that makes sense.
The Coens' biggest movie to date has now become one of the best-performing horse operas of recent memory.
Who's up? Who's down?
Her tortured teen-speak is just as difficult as that Charles Portis dialogue in 'True Grit.'
'True Grit' is not far behind.
Plus: Bill Hader, both Coen Brothers ...
Is it good enough for Oscar gold?
But "Little Fockers" still wins.
Plus, Conan O'Brien mocks his audience after their extremely enthusiastic display of applause, on our regular late-night roundup.
We've measured them on a scale of Zorro to Gene Shalit.
Sorry, guys.
Who's up? Who's down?
Plus some serious bitchface-ing.
Who's up? Who's down?
Josh Brolin and Jeff Bridges roll around in it in the full-length trailer for the Coen Brothers' new movie.
Plus: Jason Segel will be 'Bad' with Cameron Diaz.

The most common question I get is, "How do you film the Bad Guy's View?"...which is usually followed by, "Do you ever shoot your camera?"
The answer to the second question is , "No." , but I have ruined a few tripods from the legs taking hits from downward deflecting bullet fragments.
To answer the first question, this video shows exactly how I film the BGV. On the video I run through it twice, first with a Remington New Model Army Revolver and then with a Third Model Dragoon.
So, if you were wondering...

No offense and none taken (̿▀̿ ̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿ ̿)̄
Have ya ever hit the tripod or camera?
Have you ever thought of using a mirror by the target instead of a camera?
Catch the image of the mirror with the camera.
A mirror may be cheaper to replace.

I get that suggestion a lot. It makes sense, but there are two reasons why I haven't tried it. A mirror would have to be quite a bit bigger than the camera, and I think it would be much more likely than the camera to get hit with bullet fragments and break.
The second reason I haven't tried it is because I think it would be too hard to set up. I do all this stuff alone, and it takes me about 20 minutes to set up the shot for the BGV. I have to establish a mark and then there is a lot of walking back and forth from the camera to the mark, filming test clips. It can take me 10 or 20 tests until I have the shot framed correctly. Adding a mirror to the equation will just make it that much more difficult to get the shot framed.

Kids should use TVs for fitness by playing "exergames" on their Wii or other consoles. But when they're done, turn the things off! That is my over-simplified mash-up of two new studies in the medical journal Pediatrics.
One, which was based on surveys of teenagers in Montreal, Quebec, found that relatively active video games such as Wii Sports and Dance Dance Revolution legitimately add to kids' weekly exercise routines. A second study, surveying the parents of U.S. children, reported that children receive 232 minutes of background television exposure every day. The findings were "startling," the authors reported, because there is growing research that this background noise can interfere with child development and health.

A group of businesses are planning to create a new brewery district in the heart of downtown Buffalo. Developers are looking at the city's past as they move forward with plans for its future.
BUFFALO, N.Y. — A partnership of Western New York businesses unveiled its long-term strategy at the grand opening of a new downtown hotel Wednesday.
"Beer enthusiasts can come and visit multiple different breweries and sample many different styles if beers made by different brewers all within walking distance," Brewmaster Phil Internicola said.
The businesses believe they can draw tourists from Canada and the surrounding area by creating a Buffalo Brewery District.
"My goal is not to try to grab somebody from Clarence," Pearl Street Managing Partner Earl Ketry said. "My goal is to pull them from Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Youngstown, Chicago. Chicago? What are you talking about? You can't get Chicago. We think we can."
The district would be based around two breweries that already exist, Pearl Street and Pan American Grill.
"There will be a third and perhaps a fourth within less than two years," Earl Ketry said.
The managing partners at Pearl Street have plans to build on the Buffalo River and they involve the historic Erie Freight House.
"We think it is not only the exclamation point of these projects but we believe it will be one of the defining projects for Buffalo," Ketry said.
But another developer already has plans to build at the Ohio Street site. Sam Savarino said he's been approached about allowing parts of the structure to be taken and moved.
"We certainly would allow them to do that as long as it wasn't going to cost us anymore than we were going to spend to demolish the building and dispose of the debris," Savarino said.
Although he said he doesn't know how much of the asbestos-riddled building can be salvaged.
"Our goal was to try and save that property and our goal is we think its magnificent piece it's too worthy of our history to do that," Ketry said.
Pearl Street partners said although the project is ambitious they are confident it will work because of the success they've had with other ventures.

Wildboyz is an American spin-off television series and follow-up to Jackass, which debuted in 2003 on MTV and moved to MTV2 in its third season. Steve-O and Chris Pontius are the stars of the show, who perform stunts and acts with animals, often putting themselves in situations for which they are not trained. The two are both stars in the hit movies Jackass: The Movie, Jackass Number Two and Jackass 3D. They travel to different parts of the globe, performing their stunts in exotic environments while educating their audience on wildlife and local culture. Season 4, the show's final season, made its debut on January 6, 2006, at 9 pm EST as a part of Sic 'Em Fridays on MTV2.
|This article's tone or style may not reflect the encyclopedic tone used on Wikipedia. (May 2013)
Wildboyz follows the antics of Chris Pontius and Steve-O, as they travel all around the globe. Over the course of 4 seasons, Pontius and Steve-O have traveled to 19 different locations. At each location the pair would both interact with the wild as well as learn the culture of the natives. Some of their antics include dressing up and running with the animals they encounter, subjecting themselves to the defense mechanisms of the animals, and eating the food of the countries' cultures.
The dangerous nature of the stunts arguably outstrips that of either Jackass or another similar spin-off, Viva La Bam. In the course of the show, Steve-O has purposely subjected himself to the relatively mild sting of the Emperor scorpion on more than one occasion, and Chris Pontius has nearly been attacked by a wild jaguar and has been bitten by a Black Bear. One of their most dangerous stunts showed the boys attracting a great white shark while disguised as seals, then later jumping into the open water just 10m away, as well as placing dangling meat attached to a hammock to attract wild lions. In another dangerous stunt, the pair dressed up as fake zebras in the Sahara near a lion den. The noble sport of Hyena Football also made its debut, which in its earliest form was nothing more than a game of keep-away with a pack of spotted hyenas using smoked ham as a ball. The "sport" according to its founders, "deserves Olympic status".
Despite the crude humor, the show has educational value, as it features accurate narrations of various animals and indigenous cultures. What separates Steve-O and Chris Pontius from their animal show-host colleagues is their complete fearlessness despite their lack of training. This recklessness is also seen in their willingness to interact with the various cultures that they come in contact with. Steve-O and Chris seem open to any new experience, which has given them a chance to experience rituals and partake in events that a typical visitor or tourist may not be privy to. This has made them very popular with both animal and comedy lovers alike.
Several members of the Jackass cast and crew have contributed assistance to the show. The director of Jackass, Jeff Tremaine, returns as director and Executive Producer of Wildboyz. Cameraman Dimitry Elyashkevich also serves as the Director of Photography as well as Executive Producer for the show. Manny Puig, a wild animal expert who appeared on Jackass several times, occasionally joins the Wildboyz on their adventures. Fellow Jackass cast members Johnny Knoxville and Wee-Man also make occasional appearances on the show.
The show ended in 2006, after 4 seasons. The reason for not making a fifth season came after the death of Steve Irwin, on which Pontius and Steve-O commented, saying "If this could happen to him, and he's a professional, we've got to look out for our own safety."[this quote needs a citation] Steve-O's memoir, Professional Idiot, makes no reference to Steve Irwin's death as factor leading to the end of Wildboyz. Steve-O writes instead that,
In all 32 episodes were produced, more than its predecessor Jackass.
Though no proper series finale was created, the concept of Wildboyz was somewhat revisited during Jackass Number Two, which was filmed after Wildboyz had ended. Jackass 2.5, director Jeff Tremaine says, "We shot some of the most amazing stuff [for Wildboyz] we've ever made. And so one of the ideas with Number Two was to recreate some of the best things we ever shot for Wildboyz. Unfortunately, it didn't always work out."
Additional footage captured during the filming of "Jackass Number Two" also followed a "Wildboyz" style format. These sketches can be seen in Jackass 2.5.

Low Carb Living for Health
I lived the low carb lifestyle for 7 years and maintained until my cancer diagnosis and then the depression and steroids kicked in and the appetite that comes with it :stars: Now that I've been tapered off of the steroids and I've come to terms with my "new" life, it's more important than ever to avoid sugar since cancer thrives on it.
Living low carb for as long as I did, I learned that feeling good is more important than just eating to eat. I lost my cravings and food became something to nourish my body with ~ not just something to make me happy. I'm so grateful that I know this way of life works and it kills sugar cravings. I'm hopeful that the lack of sugar will kill my cancer cells as well! I'm back on track and all ready not missing the sugar or carbs. I honestly believe there was a reason I embraced this WOE way back then and that reason was so that I could take care of myself when I truly needed to save my life ~ that time is NOW.
Good luck to you!
So sorry to hear of your diagnosis. :hugs: It's very true that this is the fight of your life. The low carb diet will go a long way toward helping your regain weight control. And will help the fluid weight from the steroids work its way off your body.
When I had cancer (I was Stage IIIC with a pretty aggressive breast cancer and 14 positive nodes out of 34 at surgery.), I not only low carbed, but I did research and decided the best thing for me was to also continue my intermittent, calorie restricted fasting. I believe it was very instrumental in shrinking the tumor over 60% prior to surgery and contributed in my remission.
I hope you will see similar success with your fight!
Thank you, Pooticus and Biochic! Unfortunately, there is no cure for my cancer and it is considered "terminal", but despite the statistics that say I only have 15 months - 24 months average to survive, I have read cases of people living 25 years after diagnosis and I intend to be one of them! I have children to see married and grandbabies to hold one day! So I'll let the doctors do their thing and I'll do mine with a positive attitude and a low carb diet. :)
My BFF's mom just got diagnosed with BC (not sure which stage she's at - she just had a lumpectomy and now they're recommending chemo for six months & then radiation :cry: ). BFFs sister & I are very big on 'cancer diets' although sister's is vegetarian and mine is keto. BFFs mom is a chocoholic sadly...ugh. I pray she'll be okay, but who knows. BFF is freaking out and now I am too. I really hope she will be okay.
OP im praying for you too. It's so hard, I can only imagine. :hugs:
I believe that low carb is the best way to eat for a lot of medical conditions. Wishing you all the best!
Wow. That has to be really hard. Have you looked at the bottom of your foot? Do you see an expiration date stamped there? Dr.'s can only guess... Good luck in your battle! There are a lot of good books & information on supplements that could help too. I wish you all the best & will keep you in my prayers... :hugs:
Thank you all! That comment about the bottom of my foot made me laugh. First thing I told my doctors when they gave me my prognosis was, " Easy there. Sit down, wipe that frown off your face and smile. We're going to be positive! We're a team and we're going to win and I am not a statistic! Only God will decide when my time is done, Kay? Kay! High-five! :high5:"

December 21, 2014
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - DeAngelo Williams led a revival of Carolina's rushing attack, and now the Panthers have a two-game winning streak.
A week after getting their first win by beating the struggling Washington Redskins, the Panthers rushed for 267 yards and three touchdowns to beat the winless Tampa Bay Buccaneers 28-21 on Sunday.
Williams gained a season-best 152 yards on 30 carries and scored twice, including the winning TD with 29 seconds left. The 1-yard dive capped a 16-play, 80-yard drive that took more than 8 minutes.
Carolina (2-3) squandered a 21-7 lead, giving up a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in the third quarter and watching Tampa Bay tie the game on Tanard Jackson's 26-yard interception return.

Being Half the Sky
by thirdeyemom
"Women hold up half the sky" – Chinese proverb Exactly a year ago today I was in Xela, Guatemala on a week long volunteer and spanish immersion trip when I heard the noise off in the distance. It sounded like a parade. I asked my teacher Lilian if she knew what on earth was going on and she replied with a smile, "It's International Women's Day!" and asked if I'd like to go see the festivities. I had never heard […]

Only yesterday they told me you were gone
All these normal people, will I find another one?
Monkey on my back, aching in my bones
I forgot you said "One day you'll walk alone"
I said I need you, does that make me wrong?
Am I a weak man, are you feeling strong?
My heart was blackened, it's bloody red
A hole in my heart, a hole in my head!
Who will help me up?
Where's the helping hand?
Will you turn on me?
Is this my final stand? In a dream I cannot see
Tangled abstract fallacy
Random turmoil builds in me
I'm addicted to chaos
Light shined on my path
Turn bad days into good
Turn breakdowns into blocks, I smashed 'em 'cause I could
Find more lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.com
My brain was labored, my head would spin
Don't let me down, don't give up, don't give in
The rain comes down, cold wind blows
The plans we made are back up on the road
Turn up my collar, welcome the unknown
Remember that you said
"One day you'll walk alone"

Weird flying car spied in Mountain View
A secretive little company in Mountain View, California just might be building itself a strange-looking flying car. The company itself is in stealth mode, so details are scant, but the few tantalizing images which lucky passersby have been able to snap paint a picture of a whirling, airborne car that's like nothing else we've seen.
The company is called Zee.Aero, and despite being snuggled up right next to Google, its head of HR (and the man listed as inventing this vehicle) Ilan Kroo denies being affiliated with the tech giant. Whether or not there is an affiliation, it's clear someone has been filling Zee.Aero's coffers. The image above (taken from a helicopter) is actually about a year old, meaning that this flying car has already been in the works for a while.
The people who snapped these images might not have realized quite what they had, simply thinking that they had caught a glimpse of some sort of new drone. But a new patent, filed this August by Zee.Aero, leaves little doubt. An image in the patent filing shows the flying car parked between a family sedan and a station wagon. If that's not an indication that this vehicle is meant to become a flying family vehicle, we're not sure what is.
The vehicle has a total of ten propellers, eight of which face upward and would be used in vertical take-offs and to keep the flying car aloft. The other two propellers are situated at the vehicle's rear and would provide the majority of the forward thrust. As of yet, nobody has come forward with an image of this thing in flight, so we can't quite tell how far Zee.Aero's flying car has come in the last year or so. Here's hoping a big announcement is coming in the near future.

The Crypto Stamp Android application is now freely available through Google Play. The application allows you to easily timestamp photos on your phone.
Also, it allows you to enable automatic stamping which periodically performs stamping for all of your photos. You can turn it on and forget about it, later on you can always prove timestamps of your photos if it ever becomes necessary.
Hashes are computed on the phone and then sent to the server, so privacy of your photos are preserved. Only sending hashes also means the application is quite efficient, requiring only minor bandwidth.

How to respond when a writers try to retract beloved poems, novels, and plays
"September 1, 1939" is one of W. H. Auden's most famous and oft-quoted poems. Its images of futility and despair in the face of violence, of the inevitable destruction and sacrifice of yet another war have such a universal immediacy that they've been revived time and time again, whenever sudden bloodshed rears its head. Perhaps the most quoted line of all is the one that closes the poem's penultimate stanza: "We must love one another or die."
Only, there's one minor problem. During his life, Auden rewrote and then renounced the text in question, barring it from future anthologies and publications and distancing himself as much as possible from its creation. As the poet wrote in the 1965 preface to his Collected Poems, "Some poems which I wrote and, unfortunately, published, I have thrown out because they were dishonest, or bad-mannered, or boring." And what did he mean by that? "A dishonest poem is one which expresses, no matter how well, feelings or beliefs which its author never felt or entertained," he explains. "Youth may be forgiven when it is brash and noisy, but this does not mean that brashness and noise are virtues." And that famous line? The worst offender of the lot. A line, in Auden's estimation, as false as it is falsely reassuring and self-congratulatory. (Auden first tried to alter it to "We must love one another and die" before altogether giving up on line and poem both.)
But are we bound by Auden's own evaluation of his work, and are we somehow wrong if we seek out—and even dare to enjoy—words that he doesn't believe in any longer? If he didn't want to see the poem, should we turn from it as well? The question is an old one, long predating Auden's famous revisions and recastings: The decision to unwrite, in a manner of speaking, certain moments of past work—and the subsequent split of popular opinion on the justifiability of that choice. When it comes to such arguments, who is right? Who is justified? Why does it matter—and what does it even matter, in the modern age where it's no longer an easy thing for the past to simply disappear?
For as long as writers have written, they've had second thoughts about their work. The Aeneid survives today through something of a fluke. Virgil had asked a friend, Lucius Varius, to burn the unfinished manuscript should anything befall him—and when he fell ill, did his best to burn the thing himself, asking repeatedly to have the manuscript boxes brought to his side. His demands were refused, and we have one of the greatest classics of world literature. Nathaniel Hawthorne was slightly more successful: After the 1828 publication of his first novel—which happens to also be largely considered the first "college novel" in America—Fanshawe: a tale, he had second thoughts about its merits and tried to both disown the work and suppress as many copies as possible. He asked friends to burn their copies (Horatio Bridge complied) and managed to prevent his wife from even suspecting of its existence until after his death. A few stragglers remained, however, and today the book is freely available in digital and printed form. Hawthorne should have been more thorough.
Others knew better than to play the odds by letting any copies loose. We'll never know if Thomas Hardy's The Poor Man and the Lady was worthy of his name—because after it had been rejected by three publishers, Hardy destroyed it altogether. Ditto James Joyce's play A Brilliant Career, of which only one part, the title page, survives today. It reads: "'A Brilliant Career' drama in 4 acts—To—My own soul I dedicate the first true work of my life." Maybe the play would have fared better had Joyce sent it to a publisher. Instead, it went to the drama critic William Archer, who wrote that "Taking it simply as a dramatic poem, I cannot help finding the canvas too large for the subject." Archer complained that it was difficult to follow and advised the aspiring author to narrow his canvas (advice Joyce, to his credit, clearly didn't take to heart in future work). And with those words, the first true work of the man who was to become arguably the greatest writer of the 20th century went to its death. Joyce likely destroyed it himself two years later, following in the literary footsteps of greats like Nikolai Gogol, who burned the second part of Dead Souls after undergoing a religious conversion, and Gerald Manley Hopkins, who burned his poetry after a similar religious awakening. What wouldn't literary scholars give to be able to recover the irrecoverable.
But such disappearing acts are increasingly rare. In the past, destruction was simpler. It was easier to get rid of a work without a trace and to recreate and reform and reimagine it, easier to lose and cause to be lost. Now, it's no longer quite as straightforward. Of course, authors can still burn their manuscripts—but once something is out in the world, especially if it ever saw the digital light of day, it's harder and harder to call it back. Writers can do their best to buy back books they wish they'd never published—like May Hutton with The Coeur d'Alenes or Johann Beringer with his Lithographiae Wirceburgensis and its lying stone—or, like Auden, request changes in future publications. But it's rare to succeed completely. And might you not draw more attention to yourself in the process?

P&O versus Princess!
After several years cruising with Princess we decided to try the P&O new ship Azura so this was definitely a comparison exercise. In our opinion both lines were very similar but had a few differences which affected our holiday.
1. P&O food is definitely aimed at the British market, there was not the variety that there was on the Princess ships. Neither were there the themed menus which occurred in the main restaurants on Princess.
2. The select dining venues were excellent on P&O but you did have to book immediately you were on board to secure a place. Those who had sailed with P&O previously knew this, leaving us new recruits with very little opportunity.
3. Drinks were cheaper on P&O, affected by there being no service charge and you were also able to take alcohol on board to drink on your cabin balcony. A great advantage at sail-away!
4.Entertainment on the Azura was aimed at the British market and the British sense of humour. More The Headliners troupe were also excellent.
5.We considered there to be too many formal nights on Azura(4 plus 2 semi formal).
6.The sunbeds were packed tightly together, especially on sea days, making it very difficult to access them.
7. Prices on P&O ships are in sterling and you are able to monitor your spending via the interactive TV, a major plus point. Less
