Doctor Who spoilers: Sooo just how different will Peter Capaldi be to Matt Smith?
With Doctor Who fans everywhere waiting eagerly for the 12th Time Lord, Peter Capaldi's, full debut, Unreality TV thought we would explore some of the main differences we expect to see between him, and his predecessor Matt Smith.
Smith announced his decision to leave the hugely popular BBC family sci-fi series back in June last year, and thus began the traditional gossip merry-go-round regarding who would replace him.
This new regeneration caused more of a stir than most, as fans everywhere called for this next chapter in the 50 year old series to make a big change and asked that bosses cast either a female or black actor in the role.
Whilst the planet threw names ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous into the ring, show runner Steven Moffat, as he later revealed, sat back and chuckled as he only ever had one man in mind for the role.
When it was announced in September that Scottish The Thick Of It star, Peter Capaldi, was the only person who was invited to audition for the part of the 12th Doctor Who, the world clapped and accepted this decision like we had all made it together.
There is your first main difference – Expectation!
Matt Smith is arguably one of the best loved Time Lord's in the history of the show. But cast your mind back to when his predecessor, David Tennant, announced his decision to leave, and the same speculation over who would take over began. Matt Smith was by far no one's first choice, and many, if not most people wrote him off before he filmed his first scene.
This probably felt more than a little daunting for the actor, but at least he knew he couldn't be any worse than predicted.
In direct contrast, poor Capaldi has the world's eyes on him, with expectations raised higher than the roof of St Pauls, which means that the pressure is on in a totally different way.
And it isn't like he can just slip in and hope no one notices, as one of the other big differences is the age of both actors!
At only 26 years of age, Matt Smith was the youngest ever actor to be cast in the infamous role, one of the main reasons people expected it not to work.
Capaldi is bringing the Doctor back to middle-ages, a move that is satisfactory to most fans, but with other changes of character already announced by the show's producers it has caused the question of age to be thrown into the ring somewhat.
When it was revealed earlier this year that Capaldi's Doctor would be madder than Smith's, and would not be linked romantically to his companion, Jenna Coleman as Smith was, fans started lambasting the decision as ageist – But is it?
Over the years there have been many Doctors, and many companions, but not all of them had romantic links to each other, so surely that would make Smith's relationship with Clara more ageist, throwing together two young and attractive people purely for audience approval.
As for the characteristics of Capaldi, being madder and sterner than Smith, surely the point of every new Doctor to bring something new to the party, to expose another of the many sides to the infamous Time Lord!
Ben Wheatley confirmed this week that Capaldi's era as the titular Time Lord will hark back to the 'Classic Who' period, bringing the show very much back to it's roots.
In conclusion Peter Capaldi should be very different to Matt Smith, otherwise it's less of a regeneration, and more of a recasting!

"I always will be [The Doctor]. But times change, and so must I… we all change. When you think about it, we are all different people, all through our lives and that's okay, that's good! You've gotta keep moving, so long as you remember all the people that you used to be. I will not forget one line of this, not one day. I swear. I will always remember when the doctor was me."
Doctor Who is a show that has always thrived on constant change. Some of the transitions from one doctor to another have been a huge change, maybe even more than Capaldi will bring. Producers, writers, directors, editors, companions, they all keep changing, yet, somehow it's always the same old Doctor Who at heart. That's what is so intriguing about it!
You never want your Doctors to be too similar. Everyone who still complains about wanting Smith or Tennant back simply don't understand the nature of the show. The only constant in Doctor Who is change. The Doctor himself continues to age and change as a person. If people really wanted him to remain the same, we'd still have the dubious, grumpy William Hartnell.
You can all have your favorite writers, directors, and even Doctors if you must, but that doesn't mean the current ones are bad. If you don't enjoy Moffat, Smith, or Capaldi, then stop watching. If you don't like the change, go back to wherever it is you enjoyed it, drop off your fan card, and don't let the door hit you on the way out.That's a bit more harsh then I'd put it; I don't think it's wise to tell people to leave a fandom if they don't like some aspects of it. I'd say go back and start watching lots of classic Who from the beginning if you haven't recently, it helps put change in perspective. Imagine how fans must have felt with Tom Baker left after 7 seasons and was replaced by 29-year-old Peter Davison.
As for companions, in the past when the doctor was older, they tended to add a younger male companion to the cast. They've done that to a smaller degree recently with Micky, Jack, and Rory, but I wouldn't mind seeing someone as center-stage as Jamie McCrimmon was again. Or just anything other than young modern day England female.
Also, I wouldn't worry too much about Clara and the Doctor. There may have been some sort of schoolboy/girl crush between them but I felt like by the end of the season finale it had become something else.
The doctor has a whole new regeneration 'cycle' ..What I think this means is that for every new regeneration from now on, He will be looking younger again!.. That's what I hope Moffat was thinking of, Otherwise casting Capaldi was a bad move, But tbh I can't wait to see what's in store for us! I'm not sure, But I think i've seen his screwdriver (Probably just a rumor or a mock design) But it looks EVIL!
It doesn't work that way. Regeneration is more or less random under most circumstances. Several doctors have regenerated into older actors than their predecessor. Steve Moffat was looking to cast someone in their 40's for the 11th doctor,but he happened to be very impressed with Smith's audition…and that's what it always comes down to, they just look for the right actor regardless of age.
A new cycle means 12 new regenerations. We have Hurt as 8.5 and TWO Tennants (the ep where he is about to regenerate but channels it into his severed hand — eventually leading to a whole second Tennant). Without those two, they could have waited until Capaldi's successor before they'd have run out of regenerations, but I think they wanted to clear the decks for the 50th anniversary. Moffat is very much into the show's history and mythology, so he might have wanted to take care of the continuity problem before they were forced to, and maybe was worried that another show runner would mishandle it.
This article leaves me cold. The demands for a black or woman actor seemed heavy handedly political — and wasn't widespread except from media elites. Don't get me wrong, if the right actor is from an ethnic minority or is a woman, then great, but otherwise why hitch Doctor Who to a political agenda? Fans wanted a good actor, not a check box.
Also, while Matt Smith has earned some very positive reviews and no doubt has his supporters, where are the legions of fans who prefer him to Tennant? If the author is going to say that she prefers Smith, then fine. There's a great case to be made. But don't hide behind a false consensus that this is a majority or even widespread opinion.
With Capaldi, they're trying to go back to the middle aged doctors of the classic series. They're also going for someone who's less hero, more weird alien.
They've done this twice before. The first was when Jon Pertwee regenerated into Tom Baker. Very different performances but two of the best takes on the role in the series. This regeneration was an unalloyed success.
The second time they tried it was when Peter Davison regenerated into Colin Baker. Now, like any good Whovian I'll immediately clarify that Baker is a brilliant actor saddled with terrible writing and some toxic BBC office politics. But it's hard to argue that this was in any way successful.
Obviously, with Capaldi, people are hoping that he'll be a Tom Baker rather than a Colin Baker. And only time will tell.
Troughton was a big change from Hartnell, Pertwee was a major departure from Troughton. The show changing from Black and White to Color and the idea of the Doctor being exiled on earth and operating as UNIT's advisor was also a quite a departure for the show. And Peter Davison was quite a contrast to Tom Baker, and he was the first Doctor that WASN'T 40-55 years old.
Tom Baker was quite weird, but he was certainly very heroic.
Not all of them had romantic links to each other?
None of them did, until the modern era started teasing about timelord libido.
I'm not even sure it's true to say that Clara does. The spoilers seem to suggest she's going to have a hard time dealing with the change, but I don't think it'll necessarily be for reasons of lust. Which is interesting since (on some level) she's seen more Doctors than any other companion – all of them, in fact.
It's also traditional that transitional companions have trouble handling it.

I'm looking to get a rifle in 7.62x39 while I still can. I see alot of talk about AK's here on the forum not so much on the Ruger mini 30. Any opinions on one or the other?
The Ruger used to be touted as a 'ranch gun'. I think they have made some changes, but long overdue. For the availability of magazines, and the rifles, I'd still go for the AK despite any differences in accuracy to a hundred yards. Truth be told, the Mini 30 and the AK can't be compared to my thinking. The only thing they have in common is the caliber. Two different purposes and employment.
AK-47. No further explanation required.
I have a mini 30 but the largest capacity mag i have found is a 10 round,it's fairly accurate but if you want 30 round mags that are cheaper go with the AK.,I have taken deer with my mini 30

I have an older Mini 14......I don't have much good to say about it. The only reason I still own it, is that it is a rare stainless one with original factory folding stock. It worth more than I paid for it, but it can't hit the broad side of a barn.......

I had a mini-30 but got rid of it.
I can't say anything bad about it, I just didn't need it since I have Aks and SKSs.
When you've got 'em by the balls, their hearts & minds will follow. Semper Fi.
AK, no question.
it's hard to find quality mags for the Mini 30 or Mini 14 (at least ones that hold more than 5 or 10 rounds) and there just aren't as many other parts and accessories available for them.

Get an AK. Don't get a WASR unless you just flat out can't get a different one. GP1975 is a good one. Yugo M70s are about the best if you want to spend the money on them.

If you have the choice and the money get them both, if not get an AK. If you can find a Chinese Norinko MAK 91 get it (milled reciever, Match Barrel).
I've owned both in past years, have since sold both. I'd have to say pass on the Mini-30. The lack of factory high capacity mags are the killer.
For a utility gun, an AK-47 is hard to beat. My favorite was an Egyptian MAADI and I've owned about every variant to come into this country.
For the guy who said that Mini-14 mags were hard to find, well, he needs to look harder. I have a Mini-14 and I stick with factory 20 round magazines only. Factory 30's are out there but are rare, and expensive. Factory 20's are still in production and easily available. They are expensive compared to AR-15 mags but hey, what can I tell you? A search on any search engine should get you good results.
If I were charged with a crime after a HD shooting it'd be a lot nicer to have the DA heft a Ruger Mini 30 up in front of the jury than the AK. When it comes to SD shootings you need to think backwards from the witness stand.
I'd love to recommend an American gun, but I've had a Ruger Mini-14 and a Mini-30. Their M-14 style actions are great, but the accuracy stinks. They are heavy, and good mags are hard to find. I think the AK is a barbaric, cheaply stamped gun, but has proven itself for years. I don't like the round anyway, except for the price of imported bulk ammo.
Treat me good, I'll treat you better. Treat me bad, I'll treat you worse.

The European Union's move to make airlines pay for their carbon emissions is a "deal breaker" for international climate negotiations, India's environment minister said today.
"For me, it is a deal breaker," Jayanthi Natarajan told a conference in New Delhi. "I strongly believe that as far as climate change discussions are concerned, this is unacceptable."
As of Jan. 1, all airlines using airports in the trade bloc were obliged to enter the EU's carbon trading program, according to the European Commission's environment arm.
Natarajan called the move a "disguised" unilateral trade measure that was introduced in the name of climate change.

Galchenyuk may have regressed this year bit I feel for him. He and his line mates started the year very well but the coach wanted the DD line to be the #1 line so they got the minutes. Galchenyuk doesn't get much power play time. Guys like Briere and Bourqe get more pp time than he does. He doesn't get the offensive zone face-offs either like the DD line does. His confidence has probably slipped and he hasn't made the most of his opportunities but DD had 1 point in 20 games (or whatever it was) and the coach rewarded him. If Chucky got the same minutes, power play time, offensive zone starts and caliber of linemates that DD has then his numbers would be much better, his confidence would be higher and he would be developing into a better player. - Comment on Playoff-bound Habs get day off in Florida; Murray faces NHL hearing (2014-04-02 13:28:32)

The First Word in Protective & Marine Coatings

Main News Page
Tuesday, January 29, 2013 More items for Health & Safety
Rounding out a year of record enforcement actions against the pipeline industry for coatings, corrosion and other violations, U.S. regulators have levied nearly $200,000 in fines against Columbia Gas Transmission Company.
Columbia, a subsidiary of NiSource Gas Transmission & Storage Company, was hit at the end of December with a final order imposing $197,0000 in civil penalties for violations on its Millennium Pipeline in New York.
The order ended a year of what proved to be a record amount of fines proposed by the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. The agency announced Thursday (Jan. 24) that 2012 also saw the second-highest number of enforcement actions the agency has taken against pipeline operators.
$8.7M in Fines
The agency issued a total of $8,748,200 in proposed fines in 2012. The second-highest year for fines was in 2008, when PHMSA issued $8,719,600 in proposed fines.
In 2012, the PHMSA issued a record number of proposed fines to pipeline operators. Some of the steepest fines were for corrosion and coatings issues.
Less than one month into the new year, PHMSA has already opened four cases with a total of $249,600 in proposed penalties.
Also in 2012, PHMSA issued 116 enforcement orders to pipeline operators for problems with integrity management programs, qualified personnel, corrosion control, and a number of other regulatory violations. In 2011, the agency issued 120 enforcement orders—its highest single-year record.
Columbia Gas Case
Several of the steepest fines from 2012 related to inadequate corrosion protection and improper coating procedures and inspections.
In the case of Columbia Gas, the violations notice alleged that Columbia failed to:
Separately, NiSource announced Friday (Jan. 25) that it received approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for a customer settlement that will allow it to invest about $300 million per year in system improvements through 2017.
Other Enforcement
Columbia Gas was not the only operator to take a six-figure hit last year from PHMSA.
Also in 2012, the agency issued its largest penalty ever to Enbridge Energy in the amount of $3,699,200 stemming from a July 2010 corrosion-related rupture that spilled more than 20,000 barrels of crude oil into the Kalamazoo River.
PHMSA issued its steepest civil penalty in 2012, totaling almost $3.7 million, against Enbridge Energy for a 2010 rupture in Michigan.
Rockies Express Pipeline LLC, a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan Energy Partners L.P., was also hit with two of the larger proposed fines in 2012.
One of the proposed fines, totaling $347,800, alleged improper welding procedures; nondestructive testing procedures that may have affected the integrity of welds; coatings applied to girth welds that were not in the temperature range specified by the manufacturer; inadequate coating inspections; visible damage to thin film epoxy coatings on the pipe; and more.
Rockies Express also received a proposed civil penalty of $641,900 for a list of problems with its corrosion control coatings, including not following the coating manufacturer's instructions, improper repair of coating defects, inadequate surface preparation, and more.
"These enforcement numbers are a direct result of improved internal tracking procedures and rigorous investigations and inspections of pipeline facilities by PHMSA field personnel," said Cynthia Quarterman, PHMSA Administrator. "Our job is to ensure pipeline operators comply with federal safety regulations, and I am proud of our enforcement achievements over the last four years."
Pipeline Safety Act
"When President Obama signed the 2011 Pipeline Safety Act into law, it strengthened the Department's ability to help promote a safer, more reliable, and capable American pipeline transportation network," said Ray LaHood, U.S. Tranportation Secretary.
"Through a combination of education, preparation, and enforcement, we can all help prevent pipeline accidents," said LaHood.
The Pipeline Safety, Regulatory Certainty, and Job Creation Act of 2011 was signed into law last year by President Obama. The Act doubled the maximum civil penalty amount PHMSA can issue to pipeline operators for violating pipeline safety regulations from $100,000 to $200,000 for each violation, and from $1 million to $2 million for a related series of violations. The act also authorizes PHMSA to increase its federal pipeline inspector workforce.

WOW, the pic of the Enbridge Rupture in the HAZ. No proper tempering or atmospheric normalizing after rolling of the pipe, perhaps?

Older workers benefit most from a modest health behavior program when it combines a web-based risk assessment with personal coaching.
University of Illinois at Chicago researchers conducted a randomized trial to evaluate two worksite wellness interventions assessing older workers' health behaviors and outcomes. The findings are available online and will be published in an upcoming issue of the American Journal of Public Health.
The health behaviors that were examined were physical activity, diet, stress reduction and smoking cessation, says Susan Hughes, professor of community health sciences, co-director of the UIC Center for Research on Health and Aging at the Institute for Health Research and Policy, and principal investigator of the study.
The researchers enrolled 423 participants into three study groups: the COACH intervention, a Web-based risk assessment with personal coaching support; the RealAge intervention, a Web-based risk assessment with behavior-specific online modules; and a control group that received printed health-promotion materials.
Participants ranged in age from 40 to 68 and were staff at UIC. Measures of healthy behaviors and weight, body mass index and waist circumference were assessed at baseline, six months after baseline and 12 months after baseline.
"What we found is that there were real differences in uptake between the two groups," Hughes said. "Ninety-five percent of people in the COACH program actually used the COACH intervention, as compared to 59 percent of people in the RealAge arm."
Both COACH and RealAge use websites to provide standardized risk assessments, develop risk appraisals, and give participants suggestions for pursing health-related behavior change. The COACH intervention also incorporates individualized counseling -- by phone and in person -- with a public health-educated coach to assist participants with their health-related goals.

Marriage-equality leader rises out of Madison Valley tragedy
You remember that night. The rain. The dark. The water rushing through the streets.
Seattle Times staff columnist
You remember that night. The rain. The dark. The water rushing through the streets.
You should also remember Kate Fleming, who died after her basement filled with the rainwater that flooded Madison Valley in December 2006.
It was a horrific night that forced the city of Seattle to make things right.
It also showed Fleming's partner, Charlene Strong, the injustice of the law.
Strong had no rights in the hospital where Fleming was taken. She couldn't go into the room to be with her as any spouse should. She was powerless.
In the five years since, though, what could have destroyed Strong has defined her.
A former interior designer, Strong, 48, now is an activist. She testified in Olympia in favor of domestic partnership, and stood beside Gov. Chris Gregoire as she signed it into law two years ago. Gregoire later made her one of the state's five human-rights commissioners.
Strong appeared in the documentary, "For My Wife ... " which used her story as a battle cry for domestic partnership.
Strong travels around the country, telling her story to illustrate for people what is at stake.
A year ago, she became co-editor of Seattle Lesbian, an online magazine with 90,000 readers per month.
And this week, she is adding her voice to a new campaign to make Washington the seventh state to legalize marriage for same-sex couples.
The campaign, called Washington United for Marriage, launched Monday and is a coalition of gay-rights, civil-liberties and religious groups that plans to pressure the Legislature to pass a marriage-equality act in 2012.
It is going to be an interesting year, with meetings all over the state filled with people defending the sanctity of marriage, quoting the Bible and asking: Isn't domestic partnership enough?
It was a step, Strong said. But it's hardly enough.
"Marriage is a level playing field," she said. "It's the way we are able to explain who we are to each other without having to pull out some card or call a lawyer."
But as one fight begins, another has finally ended: Strong and others whose lives were affected by the storm have made their peace with the city.
In March, the city reached a $2.5 million settlement with a group of residents who sued over chronic flooding. In addition, it has spent millions fixing the problem.
In 2008, the city reached a $2.8 million settlement over Fleming's death, and, on its own, installed a memorial marker near the playfields in the Washington Park Arboretum.
"I believe the city understood how tragic it was," Strong said, "and it was their way of saying, 'We're sorry,' not only for Kate's death, but the neglect that the city went through for years."
You remember that night, and know that the rain — and the anniversary — is coming. And you wonder how Strong got through it, how she got here.
"I can't be the victim," she said. "The circumstances, the inequality of that night — then I was. But not anymore. I learned that I can bring honor not only to Kate's memory, but to my life."

Good luck with the baby.
My column is more a conversation with readers than a spouting of my own views. I like to think that, in writing, I lay down a bridge between readers and me. It is as much their space as mine. And it is a place to tell the stories that, otherwise, may not get into the paper.

There have been 35 quarterbacks in NFL history to throw for at least 30,000 yards. Given enough time, you could probably guess that Drew Bledsoe, Jim Kelly, and Steve McNair are three of them. All three have something else in common: they were all born on February 14th.
If we drop the cut-off to 16,000 yards, we jump to 125 quarterbacks but get to include David Garrard, another Valentine's Day baby. With 366 possible birthdays, it's pretty incredible that four out of a random group of 125 people would have the same birthday. Consider that no one born on any the following seven days — January 30th, March 4th and 30th, April 9th and 13th, and June 12th and 21st — has ever gained a single passing yard in NFL history.1
But wait, there's more: If we drop the threshold to 3,500 passing yards, we get to include Patrick Ramsey and Anthony Wright. Those guys may not impress you, but consider that only 310 players have thrown for 3,500 yards. That means dozens of days have zero quarterbacks with 3,500 yards, so slotting in Ramsey and Wright as QB5 and QB6 on your birthday dream team is pretty damn good. February 13th, for example, has Jim Youel as its top passer, and he only collected 849 yards. Yesterday's number two slot goes to the greatest receiver of all-time to ever play with Aaron Brooks (106 yards), outpacing Drew Henson and his 98 career yards. Clearly, passing yardage is for lovers.2
[click to continue…]
- Even February 29th has a couple of representatives, led by Dick Wood and his 7,153 passing yards. [↩]
- Long-time readers will recognize that this post is a blatant ripoff of Doug's classic Passing Yardage is for Lovers, published five years ago to the day. [↩]

Reviewed Tomato, Red Onion and Rocket Salad with Fried Egg, Grilled Chorizo and Grilled Provoleto Crostini
Aug 4, 2011 in Food Network Community Toolbox on FoodNetwork.com
"This s*&$ was awesome. The crostini was the best thing of this whole episode. While difficult to execute, the payoff was worth it. I used Kiolbassa Chorizo from San Antonio. My provolone was only about an inch thick, but it compliments the egg and the chorizo so well, it don't matter."""

EOS Bodies / Re: 46.1mp Canon DSLR Previewed at PhotoPlus 2012? [CR1]
« on: September 22, 2012, 05:56:39 PM »Yeah, you're probably right, it could be a 4D, but the low ISO range of 100 to 12,800 and not 50 to 51,200 or 101,400 threw me. Is this going to be a $4,999 EOS 4D designed for Studio or outdoor Landscape photography where low-light is not an issue?
well i take pictures with a dslr for 7 years now.
95% of my pictures are taken with ISO under 6400.
i really don´t know what people need ISO 25600 and above.
and i wonder how these people have worked before.....
And I wonder how people got around before, when there were no cars...... yes, they got around, but it took a while and was a LOT more difficult.
Get my point?

Are you a ham or a fruitcake? Giftwise, that is.
That's the question asked by HON, a company that designs and manufactures office furniture. HON surveyed over 800 workers across the country about what kind of gift they received from their employers.
Here's what the survey revealed:
- Over half of the employees who responded (54 percent) received a cash bonus.
- On the flip side of that generosity, 24 percent said their company gave them nothing – nada, zip, zilch. (Bah, humbug!)
- 22 percent received a gift certificate or gift card.
- Some employers (18 percent) gifted their workers with some sort of food. Five percent gave employees turkeys, and another 4 percent gave out hams. Nine percent fell under the category of "other food items." (Probably those dreaded fruitcakes!)
What does your company do?

Teaching A Love Of Real Food Around The World
Wed 01 May 2013Story by Natalie Montanaro
When I go to the supermarket now, it�s mostly to buy fresh vegetables and fruit, flour and other staples and herbs and spices which I�ll use to enhance my dishes for others who�ve never had the kinds of ethnic foods I�ve grown to love.
No longer do I look for, nor have much opportunity to buy, canned or frozen goods of high quality - I still love German sauerkraut and Japanese edamame, but these are somewhat impossible to find in the places I�ve lived abroad.
What I do strive for is to continue to impart wisdom about healthy and robust eating that is different from the local cuisine which may contain too much salt, preservatives, saturated fats and meats. In my opinion, these are unnecessary if you learn about other ways of including protein in your diet like beans, seeds, nuts and various dairy products.
During the past four years of Peace Corps service, my colleagues, neighbors and students have not only learned to cook foods from pancakes to pierogis, but they�ve learned to love them and to modify what they do make of their own traditional fare (tasty but not always too good for you) to enhance and modify their own creations in the spirit of the mission of Jamie Oliver�s Food Revolution.
Before I volunteered in the Peace Corps, I cooked a bunch for sure, but oftentimes included packaged goods like biscuit mix and frozen pizzas. Then I hearkened back to what I�d learned as a young mother and that was to make everything I wanted from scratch. Southern cornbread, New York potato knishes, French creme puffs and Italian gnocchi and pasta are some of the homemade goodies that I like to share with new friends across the miles. It�s easy when you learn how and most are just three to five ingredients. Practice makes it perfect and it�s a great way to save money and enjoy cooking like a pro.
All the kids in Romania and Tonga I�ve taught to cook are in my mind each time I whip up something tasty and will stay in my heart always. I know that they love to make their own dishes now and will remember the experiences we had together while they create in their own kitchens as I do.
Teaching English and traveling with my whisk and world of ideas is taking priority. I�m glad to report, that among many, the home economics crew and their instructor at the Tonga Institute of Education are the newest members of what I like to call �Natalie�s Food Rev Club.� While in Romania and in Tonga, I have reached out to families, neighbors, schoolteachers, students and fellow Peace Corps volunteers to spread the message that good food is not only easy and affordable, but a way to connect with others and understand that others� traditions, tastes and methods are most times very different than your own.
Now I�ve gone on to China and will continue the work that I started back in Romania, hundreds of recipes and dinners with new people later and a whole lot of English and food culture later. I�m really looking forward to more ambassador experiences this year so check out some of the dishes I�ve gotten to try out here at www.facebook.com/FoodRevolutionKingdomofTonga and some other wonderful notes about local food experiences here as well as this recent article on CNN featuring a Tongan delight.
Food Revolution Day 2013!
For my activity this year (last year it was a garden party with 2nd and 3rd grade Hungarian kids in Transylvania) I will host �Cool the Furnace!�.
I am now working in the �hotspot� of Chongqing, China which everyone calls the furnace- famous for hotpot dishes with the spiciest peppers and it�s eaten all year round even in the unbearable heat of summer!
For Food Revolution Day I�ll have a seasonal cooking class for my group of college students, teaching them how to use all those colorful fruits and vegetables grown here to make cool dishes together requiring no boiling, baking or frying along - delicious foods appropriate to beat the heat.
Check out these photos of some of the most lovely people I met as a Peace Corps Response volunteer and you�re a Food Revolution Ambassador in the Kingdom of Tonga, and a few of the many delicious foods we created together there in the spirit of the Food Revolution.
I look forward to more times to share skills, conversation and culture with new friends in any place around the world my life takes me. Thanks to Jamie and all the other ambassadors, families and friends around the world, the Food Revolution is stronger than ever and growing each day.
About the author: Natalie Montanaro, Food Revolution Ambassador Kingdom of Tonga, earned a master�s degree in foreign languages and language education from the College of Charleston in South Carolina. She is a returned Peace Corps Volunteer (Romania 2009-2012) and Peace Corps Response Teacher Trainer (Kingdom of Tonga 2012-2013) who loves food and entertaining, teaching and traveling, photography and music, culture and the art-most of which find their way into the meals and conversations she has with others. She is currently an English teacher/�new food introducer� in China at Chongqing Business and Technical University in the People�s Republic of China. You can contact Natalie at email@example.com.

Aug 19, 2014 11:42 AM by Associated Press
AMSTERDAM (AP) - The organization charged with overseeing the destruction of Syria's chemical weapons program says the most crucial part of its operation has been completed.
The Organization for the Prohibition for Chemical Weapons said Tuesday that an operation carried out aboard U.S. vessel Cape Ray has destroyed 581 metric tons of a precursor for sarin nerve gas, and 19.8 metric tons of mustard gas. The toxicity of the chemicals was reduced by 99.9 percent by a hydrolysis technique aboard the ship, and the resulting liquid will now be transported to Finland and Germany for final disposal.
OPCW experts ensured that none of the chemicals escaped into the sea, the agency's director-general Ahmet Uzumcu said in a statement.

Jean Paul Gaultier Goes Old Hollywood for Fall 2009 Couture
>> Jean Paul Gaultier's Fall 2009 couture show was a spectacle — pre-show, Sasha Pivovarova sketched backstage, free Magnums and ice cream bars were handed out to help stifle the heat (Jean Paul even ate one as he took his bow). But that was just the beginning: Mickey Rourke never even made it to his front row seat due to the paparazzi scrum, instead taking in the show from the fifth row.
Gaultier drew inspiration from Old Hollywood — the seating was divided into old movie studios; models — including Erin O'Connor — were made up as Joan Crawford, Marilyn Monroe, Rita Hayworth, Catherine Deneuve, Greta Garbo; and the dresses were based on iconic movies like Barbarella, Belle de Jour, African Queen, Anna Karenina, and A Star is Born. For the finale, the bride appeared against a backdrop of famous Hollywood faces, with each one in turn projected onto her face.

The Detroit Tigers made four more cuts on Thursday, but former Wolf Pack pitcher Eddie Bonine was not among them.
Earlier in the day the Detroit News published a report saying Bonine would likely be cut by the team.
The Tigers roster is now down to 38 players with Opening Day just a little bit more than a week away. Eventually, that will be trimmed down to 25 active players.
Bonine has a 0.82 ERA in eight innings this spring.
He has allowed just one run and eight hits while striking out five and walking two.
He is also a perfect 1-for-1 in save situations.

Evening Ganga prayers
After seeing all three, here's what I think of the basic difference in the evening Ganga prayers.
1. Haridwar: Big, bass boosted, tight, kind of a spectacle for the eyes with all the human energy and little temples bustling together.
2. Rishikesh, Triveni Ghat: More quiet, subtle, payers directly next to the river almost touching the water; no steps in between like in Haridwar. Wide, stony, empty beach with twinkling lights in the back... pretty peaceful (if the prayers are not being done over loudspeakers).
3. Swarg Ashram, Ram Jhula: 3km from Rishikesh, prayers here are most different. Many people gather here too but its not tight like Haridwar. More of a meditative discussion-prayer-chant. Whole thing lasts the longest here. Lots of young disciples sing along with much harmony and unison.
They all start at about 6.30 - 7.00 pm. Being part of any is a feast. See whatever works works for you.- Arts and Culture
- Religious Travel
Dry & Vegetarian
There is no alchohol for sale in Rishikesh, and the city is strictly vegetarian.
The lack of alchohol has obviously not been a problem- the supply of other forms of relaxing substances makes up for that. Chillums are for sale in every side stall.
There is a place nearby, 11kms south on the Haridwar Road, that sells meat and alchohol if the need for these is felt by any traveller- Adventure Travel

Ganga dip
Bathing in the Ganga is one of the main reasons for Rishikesh's existence, though the water is Himalayan cold, it is clean and not as lethal to tourists as the river becomes in Varanasi. Aarti, the floating lantern ceremony is performed every evening at the main ghat, in downtown Rishikesh. Lakshman Jhula is not the place to witness this as the Ganga is just entering the town at this spot. The downtown Triveni Ghat has much more of a Holy Day atmosphere and attracts far more Hindu pilgrims than tourists, which does contribute to the religious carnival atmosphere. The beautiful larger than life painted statues of Shiva, Lakshman and other Hindu gods add to the colourful scene, particularly set against the ice white of the Ganga. Lakshman Jhula does have a lot of its own colour, mostly the red of the many-tiered temples and the acolytes who dress as Hindu gods. Swarg Ashram has the largest collection of Sadhus and Gurus, sporting some flamboyant costumes and hairdos, not just the traditional orange robes. It's quite a common if strange, sight to see the younger holy men riding motorcycles, they cut quite a dash and turn many a lady tourist's head.

No shoes in a temple
Be sure to remove your shoes before entering any temple. Shoes are considered dirty as we walk with them everywhere. Also many temples do not allow leather in any form (belts, wallets, watch straps, shoes, bags, etc.). So check before entering.

Daily rituals
An important part of living in Rishikesh is the daily dip in the holy river. It is usually done either at dawn or late afternoon and evening. I was told that this old man in the picture performed this daily ritual every single day no matter what the temperature of the water is. And the water can get very cold. This devotion is what keeps this country alive. It is fascinating to think that he is there everyday doing what he believes in and his faith makes all discomforts tolerable.

Elena Filatova
The topic of this article may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline. (December 2014) |
Elena Filatova | |
Born | 1974 Ukrainian SSR, Soviet Union |
Pen name | Kid of Speed Gamma Girl |
Occupation | Writer, Photographer |
Genre | Nonfiction, History |
Elena Vladimirovna Filatova (Russian: Елена Филатова, Ukrainian: Олена Володимирівна Філатова; born 1974 in Ukraine, Soviet Union) is a Ukrainian motorcyclist and photographer who uses the online nickname "KiddOfSpeed". In 2004, she gained internet fame after publishing online a photo-essay presented as solo motorcycle rides through Chernobyl's zone of alienation.[1] Her website gained popularity due to its mention on Slashdot and other online news sources. Soon after its publication, the truthfulness of her website was called into question (see Hoax allegations).[2] Filatova has also made photo-documentary websites of Kiev-area history about the Orange Revolution and about the city's historic "Serpent's Wall" defensive earthworks and their role in the fighting there during World War II.
Chernobyl photos and motorcycle trip[edit]
Filatova's website contains a series of photographs documenting the area around the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, starting just under 18 years after the nuclear disaster there. She visited the virtually abandoned city of Prypiat, Ukraine and a circular area surrounding the 1986 Chernobyl disaster known as the Exclusion Zone.[3]
Her website features a large number of photographs of Chernobyl-area buildings, cottages, rusting carnival equipment, and the interiors of disused Prypiat schools, shops, and apartments. The photos are mostly snapshots of the scenery, but a few show Filatova —usually with Shoei-brand motorcycle gear. Some show a motorcycle.[4] The photos are presented as an account of a trip by a biker who trekked alone in the radiation zone.
Hoax allegations and response[edit]
According to exclusion zone tour guide Rimma Kyselytsia, Filatova and her husband came on a regular tour organized by a Kiev travel agency traveling in a car provided by Chernobylinterinform. Kyselytsia stated that the story documented on Filatova's website is untrue; Filatova did not ride a motorcycle alone in the zone but "came with her husband and a friend on a regular tour". According to Kyselytsia, Filatova's husband took most of the pictures and staged some of them. Los Angeles Times journalist Mary Mycio traced some of the pictures on the website to a Ukrainian coffee table book and identified some as anachronisms, showing chemical showers that no longer existed and saplings that had grown into trees by the time of Filatova's tour.[2]
Yuri Tatarchuk , a Chernobyl tour guide who brings disaster tourists to the region, later said that Filatova's account is fictional —and that she "booked a tour, wore a leather biker jacket and posed for pictures."[5]
Around May 16, 2004, Filatova posted to her website that she was "being accused that it was more poetry in this story then [sic] reality. I partly accept this accusation, it still was more reality then [sic] poetry"; by May 24 she had removed the note.[6]
Other projects[edit]
Among her projects is a photo-journal about the Serpent's Wall near the city of Kiev, her home.[7] The journal contains photos of Filatova's exploration of an ancient wall and more modern World War II fortifications built amongst its remains.
Other links in her website lead to her photo journal of the day of Ukraine's Orange Revolution.[8] In April 2007, she posted more photos of the surrounding Chernobyl area that had been taken in March of that year.[9]
One of the latest projects on the site is photos of abandoned Soviet prison camps established under Joseph Stalin as part of the Soviet Gulag system.[10]
