Twitter Shortens Tweets with a URL by 2 Characters
Posted on February 21st 2013
For those Twitter peeps who like to tweet urls: your tweets are going to get shorter.
Starting today, any tweet that includes a url will now be reduced by 2 characters. This takes it to 118 characters, or 117 for https links. This was first announced to the Twitter development community by Twitter in December. It's just now being implemented and goes live today.
Such change is a result of Twitter's t.co link wrapper. Since it extends the maximum length of a link wrapped by t.co from 20 to 22 characters for non-https URLs, and from 21 to 23 characters for https lengths, you now have less tweet landscape to work with.
For those new to Twitter or who don't tweet a lot, it may not seem like a lot to you. However, for those who have been around the Twitter block, you know 2 characters can change a tweet considering we only have 140 total characters to work with anyway! Anyone who knows me -- a woman of many words, characters and tweets -- will know that I am not too happy with this change.
All applications that leverage the t.co wrapped lengths will now have to accomodate the new lengths.
When Twitter users post a link within a tweet, Twitter automatically wraps the link in their own proprietary wrapper (t.co). This happens even if another url shortener is used such as bit.ly and others. Twitter supports this method as they believe it helps keep the Twitter ecosystem safe and helps avoid computer viruses. There are obviously key benefits to them being able to track all urls for watching trends and enabling future monetization on such data in the future.
Do you think this change will impact how and what you tweet? Do you use the t.co shortener or a different one? Why do you use the shortener you use?
My opinion: I wish Twitter would figure out how to give us two characters instead of taking two away. What's your 2 cents?
Do you know how many changes of this nature Twitter has made in the past? This is the only change to the basic tweeting functionality I can remember off the top of my head. Thanks for sharing this... you saved me a lot of confusion from my next visit to HootSuite.
Thanks for this - time to go into Hootsuite and check all the scheduled posts! I have to say that Twitter isn't as bad for making frequent, unnecessary changes as some other social networks can be. I refer to Facebook, of course.
This Twitter change does seem to be limiting, however. 140 characters should mean 140 characters. In an ideal world, the URL would not count as part of the character limit.
I'm in the boat with you! One of the biggest parts of my job is using Twitter to promote our company's events, and I do that by including a bit.ly to our event websites. Thanks for the news. I agree with Ahmed Ahmed, 140 characters should mean 140 characters, links excluded.
I don't know if I like this or not either. With Twitter small real estate to update on, it's hard enough to mimimize tweets as it is now. But I believe the end result will be the survival of the marketers that can handle this change by effectively adapting to its new style.
Heck, things are gonna change, and there's nothing we can do to stop them...you've either got to roll with it or go home.

This is the first inkling I've seen that you could entertain 'another way'. "If Austrian econ is correct", that you're willing to consider alternatives. Well done.
TODAY's recommended economics writing:
Speaking of trade, the Nation's Christopher Hayes has quite a long survey of current opinion on the subject at the New Republic. I was expecting a much harsher assessment of the economics of the matter, but it's actually a thought-provoking piece with many contributions from prominent economists. Mr Hayes doesn't so much as dispute the benefits of trade as argue for a more rigorous redistribution of the gains to the losers. I think that constitutes a step forward on the subject from the labour-left.
Brad Setser's piece on the systemic nature of the financial crisis is worth reading. It's most worth reading thanks to this quote from the inimitable Warren Buffett:
[A]ll the major institutions in the world trying to deleverage. And we want them to deleverage, but they're trying to deleverage at the same time. Well, if huge institutions are trying to deleverage, you need someone in the world that's willing to leverage up. And there's no one that can leverage up except the United States government.
The American national debt has surpassed $10 trillion.
But the global derivatives market is $1.14 quadrillion.
And The Economist present: the D-word index.

This is the first inkling I've seen that you could entertain 'another way'. "If Austrian econ is correct", that you're willing to consider alternatives. Well done.
Mach, you assume the bail out will work in that it will turn things around fairly soon. I don't think that will happen. If Austrian econ is correct, the bail out will smooth things over for a short while and then we will proceed to the inevitable recession, only it will be worse.
In a perverse way I kind of want the Wall St welfare package to pass so that when the depression hits we can say Austrian econ was right. But even if that happened, all people would say is that the bail out wasn't big enough.
You mentioned the Great D, but people got the wrong idea from it. Nothing the gov did pulled the US out of the Big D. But people thought it did and still think that. Bernanke still thinks the Feds could have rescued the US from the Big D. Historians claim the Roosevelt saved capitalism. If he did, he did so by destroying it.
Americans are already overwhelmingly socialist and they will interepret what ever happens through socialist lenses.
Buffet does a beautiful job of summarizing the crisis, but I don't agree that the US gov should "leverage up." The economy will tank whether or not Congress passes the $700 billion in welfare for Wall Street. Without its passage, we get hurt once, with the depression. With it, we get the depression plus generations paying off the debt.
The arguments for Wall Street welfare don't make any sense. They amount to telling us that a kick in the balls now will make our broken legs later not seem so painful.
fundamentalist,Here is the problem. You are correct. If we do not pass this bill, we could get through this. We will have a 2-3 year sever recession but then we can rebuild. Or so the thinking goes...Here is the problem. Those 2-3 years will be so tumultuous and so painful that American public opinion will turn so much against capitalism that it will be destroyed forever.Think about what happened after the Great Depression. At first, people didn't care and in fact thought that Wall Street got what it deserved. But once the crisis began to hit them, they not only wanted government intervention, they stood in bread lines begging for it. Although the opinion right now seems to be "No Bailout", once the crisis hits middle class people they will want government to help them in all aspects of life.Also, this depression will spread globally causing extremism to flourish. Leaders like Hitler and Mussolini rose from the ashes of the Great Depression. The trend towards extremism (fascism, communism) will replay again. Here in America, you will see populism, protectionism and xenophobia towards immigrants flourish. This will only deepen the recession.So, fundamentalist, to conclude, you assume that people will act rationally and just accept the fact that we deserve this pain. Well, I am here to tell you that they won't and if this bill doesn't pass, as Bernanke said "We might not have an economy on Monday."

text: I think some people are slightly confused as to what constitutes a carbohydrate. Carbs aren't bad so I personally don't think it's a major concern but I was just kind of struck by the fact that a couple people in earlier threads (which are now closed) referred to carbs as "bread pasta or rice" Lettuce and asparugus each have around a gram of carbs but peas, squash, carrots and most other vegetables are actually quite high in carbs. Just wanted to clear this up for anyone who is trying to break down their caloric intake into carbs, protein and fat. There is more and more research suggesting that a plant based diet is the healthiest so if you are eating a vegetarian style and getting your daily protein I wouldn't even worry about how many carbs you're taking in daily. If you're trying to lose weight you will be much better off counting your calories but little things like this get the better of me and I felt a compulsion to post. Thanks for listening (/reading) my little rant! Have a healthy day everyone.

By Dr. Joe Kort
Sometimes images in the media, porn or in advertising can trigger sexual fantasies and desires you never knew you had making you curious and eager to investigate. For most men and women, broadening sexual interests and fantasies is inherently healthy and a normal reaction and, once integrated, it doesn't remain compulsive over time.
Another reason for obsessive-compulsive viewing of porn is the coming out process. In their first three years of coming out gay or bisexual, men tend to develop sexually promiscuous behaviors—which includes viewing pornography, naturally. This arises from what I call delayed adolescence.
During their teenage years, gay men and bisexuals don't have any healthy outlets to experiment with sexual behavior and instead are shamed into stifling their feelings and sexual longings. So during the coming-out process, men make up for lost time, preoccupied with pornography just like male teenagers would be. Again, this is a healthy, normal stage of development that's usually gone though over a three-year span of time or less.
Sex therapist Ian Kerner coined the term Sexual Attention Deficit Disorder (SADD) to describe how watching at too much porn can prompt erectile dysfunction and disinterest in a partner. As Kerner wrote, "easy access to internet porn and the sheer variety of novelty it contains have affected average guys who would not normally have a problem with pornography."
In my office, I hear men tell me that they can't focus on whomever they're dating because their minds stray elsewhere—recalling choice moments from the porn they've watched. Their peak sexual experiences are driven by the porn or themselves, not their partners.
None of these are pathological reasons why men watch pornography compulsively. But certainly there can be dysfunctional reasons as well.
The three common problems with porn which I see most often are men who suffer from sexual addiction, childhood sexual abuse and trauma and intimacy and courtship disorders.
When worrying about whether sexual addiction applies, remember that research shows only 3 to 5% of people suffer from sex addiction. But if you are one of them, you'll want to be on the right path for recovery.
Questions to explore are 1) Is it interfering with your life by eating into scheduled events, taking time away from social outlets and spending time with friends? 2) Do you experience failed attempts to quit, loss of control—in terms of not being able to control the amount of time you spend enjoying porn, and reducing the time you spend dating.
When boys or girls are sexually abused, the effects of their trauma often don't surface until later when they are ready to form sexual intimacy in adolescence and young adulthood. Having been traumatized by childhood sexual abuse, they never develop the basic skills needed to form and maintain sexual relationships with others. Instead close sexual relationships make them experience fear, shame and anxiety. To avoid re-experiencing early feelings of powerlessness, they discover that "meaningless" sex is a highly effective technique for keeping intimacy at bay.

Detroit Barber Fails To Break Haircut Record
By editor
Originally published on Wed January 8, 2014 6:56 am
Good morning, I'm Renee Montagne.
It's actually not that surprising that Detroit barber Brian "B-Dogg" Price did not get enough volunteers to help him break the record for most haircuts in one hour. The current record is 34. And would you like a haircut that took less than two minutes? Still, it would be free, so he's reached out to churches and shelters for volunteers for another run at the record this spring. The barber plans to use two electric clippers simultaneously.
It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Newton Chelette Named City of Lancaster's Citizen of the Year
Posted: June 27, 2014
Newton Chelette receiving award from Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris
Newton Chelette, Antelope Valley College's Dean of Kinesiology, Athletics and Visual and Performing Arts as well as the Athletic Director, was honored as the City of Lancaster's 2014 Citizen of the Year.
The honor, which was presented by Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris, was bestowed for Chelette's "dedication and numerous contributions to AVC and the City of Lancaster.
In what turned into a very emotional ceremony, Chelette discussed the honors he and his family have been blessed with the last couple of years. Vice Mayor Marvin Crist, instead of speaking himself as to why Chelette deserved the honor, instead read a letter from Chelette's daughter Amanda, who was unable to attend the ceremony. Attending the ceremony were Newton's fiance Lana Thomas, son Brady Chelette, AVC Superintendent/President Ed Knudsen and various members of the AVC faculty and staff.
Since coming to Lancaster and Antelope Valley College in 1989, Chelette's impact in the community has been continuous.
After 17 record breaking seasons as the Marauder Men's Basketball coach, Chelette moved into the Athletic Director's chair. In 2006, he was named Dean of both the Kinesiology, Athletics and Dance and the Visual and Performing Arts divisions.
During Chelette's tenure, the Marauder Athletic landscape has been upgraded to some of the best facilities in the state, including refurbishment of the Marauder Gym. As a result, in large part, to his successful efforts as co-chairman of the Passage of Measure R Committee, a complete athletic state-of-the-art athletic complex was also completed. Brent Carder Marauder Stadium was torn down and rebuild to boast a FieldTurf playing surface and a Mondo track, while new baseball and softball stadiums were built complete with FieldTurf playing surfaces and modern media facilities.
Each year, Chelette, along with members of the Division, donate money so that he can buy locally grown animals at the AV Fair livestock auction. After butchering locally, the meat is donated to the Lancaster Community Shelter.
Chelette spearheaded a fund raising effort for the American Cancer Society's Coaches vs. Cancer program that raised over $30,000 in the last two years. The amount raised by AVC was over four times the amount any other single California Community College athletic department donated.
Chelette arranged for the honoring of Mt. San Jacinto Baseball coach Steve Alonzo, who has two children deployed in Afghanistan, as well as all veterans in the community at a Marauder Baseball game.
Chelette has recently announced he, the coaches and staff are currently working to have each sport doing something each year to "give something back to the community we serve."
He is on the Board of Directors for the Antelope Valley Boys and Girls Club as well as the Los Angeles County Sheriff League. In 2011, he was named director of the year by the LACSL and has been named to the Criminal Justice Commission for the City of Lancaster by the mayor R. Rex Paris.
Chelette is the President this year of the California Community College Management Council and is also a voting member of the CCCAA Executive Board.
Chelette's election as President highlights 25 years that he has represented Antelope Valley College and Marauder Athletics in some capacity at the state level. Most recently, Chelette was honored California Community College Athletic Directors Association's Athletic Director of the Year and last year with the CCCADA Honoring our Own Award. The award is given annually by the CCCADA for "exemplary service" for the association.
He served two years as Vice Chair of the Management Council and is President of the Pacific Division of the American Football Conference. He is Past President of the Foothill Athletic Conference, California Community College Men's Basketball Coaches Association and the California Community College Athletic Director Association.
In 2001, he was inducted into the High Desert Men's Basketball Coaches Association's Hall of Fame Coaches.
In 2004, before giving up the basketball head coaching reigns in 2006, Chelette, led the Marauders to the state championship final four for the first time since 1956. At AVC, Chelette brought ten conference titles in 17 seasons, and has been named coach of the year seven years, including four straight in a row. He coached seven straight conference players of the year, and his Marauder teams have competed in the playoffs 16 straight seasons and hosted playoff games in 13 of those 16 years. In 1995-96, 1996-97, and 1998-99 Chelette's teams were undefeated in conference play, the only Marauder teams to achieve perfection in conference. In the 2000-01 season, he became the winningest coach in Marauder basketball history, recording his 272th win against Rio Hondo, and moving past the man he replaced at AVC, Bob Murray. In 2008, he was inducted into the California Community College Men's Basketball Coaches Association's Hall of Fame, and March 14, 2008 was proclaimed as "Newton Chelette Day" by his hometown of Iowa, LA.
"I came to AVC a few months after Newton and it's been a tremendous 25 year ride on the court and off," said AVC Professor and Sports Information Director Glenn Haller, who himself was recently commended by the County of Los Angeles for 'dedicated service to the affairs of the community and for the civic pride demonstrated by numerous contributions for the benefit of all the citizens of Los Angeles County.'
"After his devotion to his family, the thing that has always been in the forefront is his dedication to the community we serve. I think it started with the local youth sports as well as putting a basketball team on the court that the community could want to call their own and take pride in.
"He work tirelessly on Measure R to make sure that the community had the finest facilities to use, and he got us on board with him to donate each year to the livestock auction, which as he often points out, helps out those who raise the animals, and then again those in the community who are in need.
"His work in making the Coaches vs. Cancer event the best in the state is typical of Newton - highly motivated to help the community and highly successful.
"The honor is very deserved, and in my opinion, late in coming."

Partial code and duplicate posts showing!
I would very much appreciate if someone would please walk me through solving this problem.
I have duplicate entries and a partial code showing on most of my website's pages and on my blog posts when viewed on their own page. Other stand alone pages have the info duplicated as well. All of them right above the header.
This is a problem I've had for a couple months now and I had posted about it at this thread in this same forum
It was partially fixed back then by deactivating the facebook related plugins. But I noticed part of the problem still happening a few days later, with the plugins still being deactivated. A forum Moderator advised me to start a new thread but by then I had to move houses so I'm only getting around to asking about it now.
My new ISP is awful and I'm so busy I can't even complain to them again!
My time online has become very limited, so it drives me nuts trying to figure out how to surf and get things done.
:Rant over!: he he he, please bare with me! 'u'
My website is over at wordpress, I'm a noob so I try not to mess with the code and resort to plugins most of the time.
Here are some samples of what the problem looks like when the info is duplicated:

I'll be checking in often hoping for a reply!

The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York, New York http://www.metmuseum.org Kimono: A Modern History September 27, 2014–January 4, 2015 Worn by men and women of all ages, the kimono is a simple garment with a complex history that has been shaped by the evolution of weaving, dyeing, and embroidery techniques as well as cultural changes in Japan. Featuring more than 50 spectacular robes dating from the 18th century to the present day, Kimono: A Modern History will tell the fascinating story of this eloquent garment, whose designs and patterns reflect trends in pictorial and decorative arts of the same period. The exhibition is organized by John T. Carpenter, Curator of Japanese Art, and Monika Bincsik, Andrew W. Mellon Postdoctoral Curatorial Fellow, both in the Department of Asian Art at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The exhibition is inspired by the research and publications of the late Terry Satsuki Milhaupt, an independent scholar who specialized in the history of Japanese textiles. The exhibition will coincide with the publication of Milhaupt's book Kimono: A Modern History, published by Reaktion Books.
Honolulu Museum of Art Honolulu, Hawaii http://www.honolulumuseum.org The Literary World of Women in the Yoshiwara Through November 16, 2014 The Yoshiwara, a government-sanctioned brothel district on the outskirts of Edo city (modern-day Tokyo), officially opened in March of 1617. For over three hundred years – until 1958, when the Yoshiwara was closed down as a venue of prostitution – a constantly evolving culture within the Japanese sex industry. A print rotation, The Literary World of Women in the Yoshiwara, looks at the academic training and intellectual lives of women in the Yoshiwara district. It includes depictions of the courtesans by Kitao Masanobu (1761–1816, known also as the author Santo Kyoden) and other artists that emphasize the women's skills in poetic composition and calligraphy. Other prints quote passages from landmark literary works that the women were required to know intimately.
Los Angeles County Museum of Art Los Angeles, California http://www.lacma.org Cranes by Maruyama Okyo Ongoing, but check LACMA website for closing date Maruyama Okyo's Cranes (1772), a pair of screens that measure five and a half feet tall and twenty-two feet long, depict seventeen cranes, twelve of one species (Red-crowned Cranes), five of another (White-naped Cranes). They are shown resting, sleeping, nestling, and peering into the distance. Much copied by later Japanese artists, these paintings were revolutionary at the time Okyo painted them: there is no ground plane, no water or streams, no rocks, and no vegetation of any kind. Maruyama Okyo (1733–95) is pivotal to Japanese art history for being one of the first artists to paint directly from nature rather than from earlier paintings and sketches. Of his five most famous pairs of screens, four are registered National Treasures by the Japanese government and may therefore never leave Japan except on loan. Only these legendary screens remain unregistered. After a two-year campaign, the Ministry of Culture of Japan granted an official export license to LACMA for the opportunity to acquire these screens, in recognition of the growing importance of LACMA's Pavilion for Japanese Art and its collections, and in the hope of promoting appreciation for the very highest achievement in the history of Japanese painting.

Employee Ownership
Since we own it, we own our future.
When one buys stock in a company, they are usually looking at the stock history to determine if it's a good investment; other than that, what does one really know about the company? At Digicon, when we buy stock, we know all about the company, the management, and the employees, and know it well, because we are the owners.
Our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), which is a stock bonus plan, is a retirement plan under which employer contributions are used to provide us with common stock in the company. As contributions are made to the ESOP, shares of common stock are credited to accounts set up for us. Over the years, we acquire more shares of common stock as more contributions are made. It's a retirement saving plan for us and grows at a better rate than banks provide…especially when we do well.
Our values, the foundation of "being Digicon":
- Dedication to managed growth, financial security, and opportunities with challenge;
- Customers and employees first…always;
- Recognizing efforts, rewarding success;
- Promoting unity and communication;
- Listening well;
- Accountability to each other; and
- Excellence in all we do.
For more information about our Employee Ownership Plan, please contact the Human Resources Department at 703-621-1000.

The article "The sparrow… and the sorrow" (Open Page, April 4) was brief and beautiful. We have made our living materialistic and artificial. There is no place for the tiny, wonderful sparrow in our world, which is extremely unfortunate.
R. Ramanathan,
That the sparrow is hardly seen these days is indeed a matter of sorrow. Its presence and tweet in the early morning hours and throughout the day were extremely pleasant. As a youngster, I watched sparrows build nests in the small holes on the walls of my house. Thanks to modern living, including cell phones and magnetic waves, the younger generation stands deprived of the pleasant experience.

This idea has probably been posted before, but here's my idea for it. Her dress would be typical cheerleader fare(rigid short skirt, Riot spirit cheer shirt, knee socks maybe.) The colors would be red, white and black(like the riot logo) Her staff of illumination would be a baton with 2 little balls of glitter or pom-poms on the end of it. Her Q would be stay relatively the same(for lack of ideas on visual ways to improve it :\ ) Her W would be two pom-poms tied together that fly to the enemy and shield Her E would be more AoE glitter explosions Her R would be relatively the same but instead of saying "Demaciaaaa!" she'd say "GOOOOOOOOOOO TEAM!" as she said "TEAM!" the laser would fire. Let me know what you guys think and maybe post your own ideas around mine.
Sounds good lux needs better skins

Twisters levelled Joplin, Missouri last month (May11) and claimed the lives of 120 locals and left many more without homes.
The star has teamed up with the online Joplin Tornado Relief eBay Charity Auction to help victims in the area trying to rebuild.
Auction organiser, Tyler Childs tells Fox News, "Jenna has been just amazing. She's originally from Missouri and she donated a set visit to The Office. We were hoping that maybe she could sign a DVD set of The Office, but she really pressed for the set visit - something they (stars) rarely do - and she made it happen."
The exclusive set visit will include access to a live rehearsal and taping, a private tour, lunch, which Fischer says is more like a "huge buffet with tons of different food stations like you might see in Vegas," and personal photos with the cast members.
Other items up for bid at the auction include a meet and greet with rockers Coldplay and a pair of tickets to see country star Tim McGraw in concert.

Theodore Roosevelt versus Franklin Delano Roosevelt
T.R.: Well, Franklin, you're having some bully fireworks for a maverick.
F.D.R.: I thought they'd make you feel at home.
T.R.: Deelighted! Like the old days, when it was always Fourth of July around here. But what's all this talk about a New Deal, and giving the old boys the gate?
F.D.R.: You ought to know, Cousin—you gave them a rough ride.
T.R.: Well, in exchange for it I took Panama. What have you taken?
F.D.R.: It seems I've taken a lot of people by storm. As for territory, we have our hands full with it already.
T.R.: And tell me, what do you do about Trust Busting?
F.D.R.: Well, Coz, everybody , including the Trusts, were pretty well busted when I got here.
T.R.: But not the Brain Trust, eh? (They give each other a knowing nudge.)
F.D.R.: Now, why do you bring your ghost around these grounds?
T.R. (plaintively) : I'd like to win a place in history too—as the fifth cousin of a famous man.

@bythewell - There are financial arguments for both sides. There's a reason that waiting lists have to be that long. The only reason they are shorter in places without universal health care is that those places simply don't have as many people able to get surgery. So it's only a question of a handful of people having to wait in one scenario, versus a lot of people dying because they can't afford the surgery at all in the second.
And the pharmaceutical companies might not be able to make the record profits they make now, but considering how many of them exist and survive in Europe, I don't think that will actually be a long term problem for the consumer.

DMC3 is pretty awesome
By FluxWaveZ 15 Comments
Of course, I suppose everyone except for me knew that already. Just finished playing it and I'm very happy that this game is much better than Devil May Cry 1 was (which I also played recently). I had practically no issues with the controls, except for one irritating platforming segment near the end of the game, and the camera didn't get in my way. I absolutely loved the combat, with the various styles and weapons at the player's disposal making for a variety of ways for one to tackle battles. I'm kind of disappointed that I stuck with the default style of "Trickster" (even though it seemed like the smartest path to take for a beginner) and if I ever play through it again, I'll be eager to experience a rather significant change in the way I fight by primarily using another style.
The voice acting wasn't horrible, the story wasn't either and I liked the characters (and finishing this game made me wonder why Capcom decided to include Trish in Marvel vs Capcom 3 instead of Vergil). The game was fairly forgiving when playing "Gold" on "Normal" difficulty and, overall, I had a much more pleasant experience than I had with the first DMC. I'm slightly disappointed that playing Vergil doesn't offer a unique story mode, but he still plays differently enough to make it worth it.

Lake Elmo has its charms.
The 123-acre state park is just a few miles north of the city center and can be reached from the bike path via Mary Street and Pemberton Lane. But the water is warm this time of year and it smells like suntan lotion.
So last week, I went lake bagging across Montana. The tour took me to some of the state's most iconic lakes and reservoirs, including Canyon Ferry Lake, Flathead Lake, and Lake McDonald in Glacier National Park.
Round trip was 1,000 miles, and every mile was worth it.
Canyon Ferry near Helena was my first stop. The reservoir is the largest of the four chain lakes on the Missouri River and I enjoyed the idea that I was swimming in the same water that Lewis and Clark drank on their way through in the early 1800s.
In the journals of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, Meriwether Lewis describes discovering a note from Clark in an elk skin on the banks of what is now the Missouri River. I did buy a postcard at Kim's Marina
on the east side with a graphic that celebrates redneck camping, but it's a weak substitute for the elk-skin note.
The islands on the lake are likely the same ones Lewis wrote about and nearby Holter Lake's Gates of the Mountains kept the name that Lewis and Clark gave them.
"This afternoon we passed parts of the mountains, that were very high, and mostly of solid rock of a light color. The mountains were so close to the river on both sides that we scarcely could find room to encamp," read the entry for July 19, 1805.
Next up was one of Flathead Lake's seven state parks. Wayfarers State Park is so close to Bigfork you can see the city lights around the bend from the campground, yet the forest is so thick in the campground, you feel like you're in your own little world.
The biggest attraction there last weekend was jumping off the slippery rocks into the turquoise water below. Even kids as young as 8 were jumping into the lake, which was more than 8 feet deep right off the shore.
The area is known for its sunsets and two benches are positioned above the rocky shore for people to take in the view, which is magnificent. The smoky haze last week turned the sun into orange and pink streaks that folded into the purple hills on the other side. The line, "Purple mountains majesty," came to mind.
The view and the rocks make Wayfarers the busiest of Flathead's state parks, with 112,000 people visiting there each year. They always keep seven of their 30 campsites open for walk-ins and tent-camping only, which makes it perfect for spontaneous folks like me.
The final stop — Lake McDonald — is about 45 miles north of Flathead, just inside Glacier National Park. Kayaks, canoes and fishing boats make up the bulk of the water visitors. But on a 90-degree August afternoon, I wasn't the only swimmer in the 10-mile-long lake.
The depth of the lake, at 472 feet, and the fact that it sits in a valley carved by glaciers, make for a chilly plunge, but the surface was warmed by the sun.
Lake McDonald is about the same elevation as Billings. McDonald sits at 3,153 feet and Billings is at 3,123, making the mountains surrounding the lake look even steeper. And the water is crystal clear and startlingly blue.
In a backcountry campground on the north side of Lake McDonald, Seattle teacher and grad student Robert Martin talked of wrapping up his 80-mile backpacking trip through Glacier Park on the shores of the lake.
Martin's tennis shoes were torn and muddy and the tread gone. He forced down one more dinner of ramen noodles, knowing better food was ahead. He complained that his body was rebelling, too tired to hike anymore.
I nicknamed him Alexander Supertramp, the name Christopher McCandless gave himself when he followed his muse into the Alaska wilderness and never returned. I knew Martin would make it back to Seattle and would have stories to tell his students in the fall. A piece of me envied some of those miles he covered in Glacier, but my 10-mile hike around the shore of Lake McDonald felt like a good place to start.

Our journey from Richmond (near east coast of Tasmania) to Strahan (on the west coast of Tasmania) was a long drive, from one side of the state to the other. But also a very beautiful drive. The journey itself was breathtaking. We also stumbled upon their hydro electric stations which were rather amazing! We also passed through Queenstown, which is an old mining town,but we ran out of film by then.

346 Tasting Notes
This marks my second first flush of the new year. And, wow, what a cup. This had all the trappings of a Darjeeling first flush, but with the added burden of a tannic mouthfeel on the finish. It was all spices, grapes, and greenery the way through. The character was more in line with a Darjeeling oolong than a normal OP. Simply superb.
Their description was rather apt. Fans of Golden Yunnans WOULD love this. I happened to fall fairly squarely in that category. This was the second Golden Bi Luo I had ever tried, and they seem to echo the same characteristics as Yunnan Golds…only sharper. It was creamy when it had to be, malty to a point, and earthy with a dash of pepper. My only real complaint was that introduction was a little too sharp and tannic. That said, still an excellent cup.
I felt like a Sikkim this morning. Heck, I always feel like a Sikkim. Sure, it'd been awhile since I had it, but it felt like a Temi sorta day. Just like the last two times I dipped into this, it brewed amber, had a Darjeeling-ish spicy note to it, but also possessed a fruity underpinning. Great way to start the morn.
My only regret is I never got to try a Temi 2nd Flush in 2011.
Original Review: http://www.teaviews.com/2012/01/28/review-rare-tea-republic-temi-sftgfop1-first-flush/
It's been awhile since I've had a Zhen Qu gold-tipped Yunnan. The last one I tried was – dare I say it? – a year ago. That one was sheer and utter perfection. This one was…almost perfect. With a liquor color like leather and a taste like honey and cream, how could it not be close to perfect? Hard to pinpoint what it was missing, but it wasn't much. Truly an excellent Yunnan Gold.
Full Review: Pending on www.teaviews.com
I'm a HUGE fan of Yunnan Golds as a rule. This one suffered from being too light compared to its other gold-tipped kin. That said, it still held quite a bit of what I loved about the type – honey-like, peppery, woody, and slightly creamy. I just wished it was a little burlier. However, to say it's a slight disappointment compared to other Yunnan Golds is like saying, "You're the less pretty High Elf in the court." (I.e. It's still excellent in its own right.)

@Kwinter – I'll keep that in mind when I actually have enough to justify a tea budget.
@The Purrfect Cup – You wants the precioussss.
I was not expecting much from this. It didn't look like a Darjeeling; it didn't smell like a Darjeeling. Heck, it didn't even taste like a Darjeeling. But – oh my – what a taste it was! Fruit candy on the front, and a malt-'n-floral trail-off. It reminded me quite a bit of teas put out by the Oothu estate (also a biodynamic op). In a word, "Perfect."

One of last Darjeeling 2011s in my stash. Gotta say it was a good year. Thankfully, it's ending on a good note with this one. While not as strong on the spice-'n-grape profile as others I've tried, this was a very even muscatel mouthfeel from start to finish. It is quintessentially Darjeeling with none of the weaknesses.

Tried this after a night of social drinking. Nothing like a "hair of the dog" tea to brighten your day. This stuff – unlike other flavored teas – actually doesn't dilute very much after the initial dry whiff. The flavoring holds up after a good steep. As an added bonus, some of the natural floral characteristics of the Ceylon base also show through.

I had this sent to me by Gorreana after they caught wind of me whining about it on the SororiTEA Sisters page. What I didn't expect was to receive so much of the stuff. In short, I adore this pekoe. It has a character quite like a Darjeeling OP but without the spicy overtones. That could be a good or bad thing, depending on your preference. I found it to be very balanced, sweet, and barely bitter.
