Was the Daily Telegraph thinking it had discovered another egregious expenses claim? Labour MP Chris Mullin, on last night's edition of Newsnight (about 16 minutes in) telling Jeremy Paxman about traumatised feelings in Westminster, revealed his own brush with the agenda-setting newspaper over his £48 (ish) claim for a TV licence (But isn't a full licence now £142.50?): "Everyone is waiting for the call from the Daily Telegraph, I had one today actually ... they said 'we have just noticed you are claiming for a black and white television licence'. I said 'yes, guilty as charged, I have owned it for 33 years, it still works, so I just never changed it.'" "You're a fascinating demographic sample," Paxman told the member for Sunderland South. "I'm one of half a percent apparently," he replied.

Ras Kass and DJ Rhettmatic's album ADIDAS is out now.
PREVIOUS: Ras Kass – Who Popped Ya?
Posted in Hip Hop, Video | Tags: chino xl, krondon, mistah f.a.b, Montage One, phil the agony, planet asia, ras kass, youtube
I fucking love this song. Everyone spits it sick on here.
They could have done better on the hook, but they did rip the hell out of this shit.
Chino XL x Slaughterhouse x Sean Price x Jean Grae x Eminem x Canibus would be a dope group track, but most likely would never happen.
That director needs to be fired. The track is hot though.
^i'd scrap eminem off that list.His new flow doesn't augur well with that gang.
Hook is atrocious. Krondon is horrible. Why the played out Reservoir Dogs theme? The song already has a theme: Native Tongues/Scenario. Chino XL?? Dude has been gone for 10 years and comes back with the exact same forced flow, with a tight vest on no less. Lol for Money B standing in for Mistah Fab... what the hell was Fab too busy with? And why not reschedule, knowing how cheesy it looks with him absent. I rarely hate on anything but this was bad. This is corny rap. Only Asia And Ras Kass stay relevant.
Over half these dudes been spitting since the mid to late 90's and still sound the same???? Most of their careers went up in smoke like the weed their smoking in the video man. It's like 97 all over again. Must have taken about 5 hrs to come up with that clever hook. Cmon man - 2012 and some of these cats on the same stuff, And Money B for Mistah FAB?? Can't take this video serious after that. Props to Ras, Planet Asia and Chino but that vest gotta go homie.
man idunno when cuts started being judged by how successfull artists careers went...i hate that shit...this shit was alright tho ras and chino killed it.
NOPE, Try Again.
As for my personal oppinion shiit is dope planet A. Chino and ras killed the track blew that shit up! Ups to chino planet ras cant forget kron and phil... shit is sick...
As for my personal opinion shiit is dope planet A. Chino and ras killed the track blew that shit up! Ups to chino planet ras cant forget kron and phil... shit is sick...
DOPE AS FUCK!!! WHAT IS THIS THE 90'S AGAIN? Loving it. Someone said the video is whack, go wack your fucking dick off to some drake singing ass videos you gay hip hop noob.
this track is ok. They didnt really paint a scene for 2012 tho. A few mentioned it in a bar or two. Mostly jus some bragadious flow. Change the title of the track also, dosnt fit the song. Hook is wack. I would have expected more from these dudes.
yo i aint gone lie the hook is straight straight garbage,but the all the verses are dope Planet A and Rass's being the dopest and the beat is fuckin ridiclous i love the nod to the original scenario with the Jimi Hendrix drums then they added some hot ass keys and synths that make this shit a banger everbody talkin about this is whack and sounds outdated is crazy jus cuz the beats and lryics dnt have the same cadence as all the stuff on the radio dnt mean it aint hot.
wooow...cant believe thats garbage ass yellow bus spittin FAB. lol
chino look like a gay hollywood gym trainer

PREMATURE EJACULATION Review Online:
You can apply a local anesthetic cream to the penis to reduce stimulation. If the male is relatively young and can achieve another erection a few minutes after an episode of premature ejaculation, he may find that his control is much better the second time Treatment may involve the clinician simply explaining why premature ejaculation occurs, assuring the person or couple that it is a normal part of the male sexual response, and providing techniques that may assist the man in learning to delay ejaculation. If you have very mild PE – for instance, you can last five minutes but would like to last 10, there's probably no point in going to a doctor. An estimated thirty percent of men suffer from premature ejaculation on a consistent basis. While men sometimes underestimate the relationship between sexual performance and emotional well-being, premature ejaculation can be caused by temporary depression, stress over financial matters, unrealistic expectations about performance, a history of sexual repression, or an overall lack of confidence. If it just happens occasionally, it's probably not something to worry about. However, if you regularly ejaculate sooner than you and your partner would like, such as before intercourse begins or soon afterward, you may have a condition known as premature ejaculation. The different treatments for premature ejaculation include Premature ejaculation is the most commonly reported sexual complaint of men and couples. For some men, stopping or cutting down on the use of alcohol, tobacco, or illegal drugs may improve their ability to control ejaculation. To me a decent satisfactory level of sexual stamina is if I can last over 15 minutes in bed. According to the numerous researchess from 25 to 40 percents of men on this planet not depending on the age suffer from premature ejaculation and want to last longer in bed. So doctors started prescribing SSRIs for non-depressed patients, to treat premature ejaculation. The squeeze technique involves squeezing below the tip of your penis when the climax is imminent for ten to 20 seconds. Looking back at it now, I am very thankful that my woman was patient enough to wait around this long. How to talk to your partner about premature ejaculation? As with many sexual dysfunctions, different degrees of premature ejaculation exist. Some men are so severely afflicted that they can't last long enough to penetrate a woman for intercourse. There are no tests used to diagnose premature ejaculation. May be it can help somebody but not to me. Chronic premature ejaculation may be a sign of anxiety or depression. When looking at how to delay ejaculation, be aware that the more pressure men will feel during sex, the more they are likely to suffer from premature ejaculation.

Information about PREMATURE EJACULATION:
premature ejaculation pregnancy
If men were asked if they've ever had at least one experience of premature ejaculation, almost every guy would get in line for their membership card. Premature ejaculation is a common sexual complaint. Premature ejaculation is the most common male sexual problem and affects men of all ages. For example, if the patient has angina with subsequent fear of myocardial infarction during sexual activity, he might present with premature ejaculation when the actual underlying problem is his cardiac disease and his mental insecurity regarding his cardiac disease. More frequent sex (or masturbation): premature ejaculation is more likely if there is a longer gap between sexual intercourse. Remember it is a common experience for men and women. If I could do it you also can do it. Almost all of them will be understanding and supportive if you do so. If however a chiropractor is able to alleviate your back problems there is every chance that premature ejaculation may be resolved additionally, as a result. They can be used alone in acquired premature ejaculation and when symptoms are mild but, when problems are severe or lifelong, are most useful when used in conjunction with drugs. The reason why the success rates vary so widely for this method is that men who are over-sensitive – rather than being excessively anxious – might not benefit from this method because they suffer from a different cause of premature ejaculation. If you find that you generally have no issues with premature ejaculation, but find that it rears its ugly head on occasion, you need to isolate the trigger that is causing your premature ejaculation. Secondary premature ejaculation is if the patient previously had successful coital relationships and only now has developed premature ejaculation.

In December 2006, we attended a conference on sexual medicine in Vienna. What is the common element that is linking all your instances of premature ejaculation together? Premature ejaculation, or ejaculating before you or your partner wanted to, is a common problem that strikes most men at some point in their lives. Triggers for premature ejaculation include feeling anxious about sexual performance, not having had sex for a while, being with a new partner or a novel sexual experience, or a habit of masturbating to orgasm very rapidly. Generally, premature ejaculation has been considered to be psychological. End premature ejaculation quickly - follow the instructions and take control. A tri-cyclic anti-depressant, Clomipramine has been used to treat premature ejaculation for decades. Testicular movement can cause premature ejaculation. Ever since, we have mainly focused on researching and developing a comprehensive treatment for premature ejaculation. A lot of drug companies, pill peddlers and internet fraudsters, love to tell you that premature ejaculation is a serious condition. And in severe cases PE can threaten or even ruin a marriage - simply because it spoils the sex lives of both partners. With this natural treatment, no matter how bad the situation has become, you will end up lasting as long as you desire - this is more enjoyable than you may think. While they can be taken as long-term solutions for premature ejaculation, they don't cure the problem in themselves. It may or may not turn out to be useful. A therapist provides reassurance, explains why premature ejaculation occurs, and teaches the man strategies for delaying ejaculation. We are proud to have helped over 7,000 patients overcome this condition in over 25 countries. A study that looked at around 500 couples from five different countries found that the average time between a man putting his penis into his partner's vagina and ejaculation was just under five-and-a-half minutes.

The hood on my Craftsman LT2000 died. It just broke off where it attached and fell to the ground. Nothing seemed wrong before that so I was surprised. I gathered the broken parts but see little hope in fixing it. I was thinking of trying epoxy and metal straps with bolts but was wondering if anyone ever had luck with this type of repair? Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'm not clear what broke and where it broke and how many pieces there are. If it's a hinge on the hood or the body that's a high stress point and super glue or something similar may not hold. It's worth a try though. Given your description of seemingly many broken parts and seeing little hope of repair, rhy not just order a new one from Sears? |
- Posted by air_raider z7 sc (My Page) on Thu, Apr 29, 10 at 16:27
Thanks, There are only 2 large parts and 1 small part where it bolts to the large piece that swivels from the frame. I would order a new hood $200 but I'm getting a great deal on a JD 430 and need money for it.However, I don't want the ol mower to rust away. One thing I forgopt to ask is: can I use it the way it is for short amounts of time ? |
No reason it can't used unless the hood contributes to the flow of air over the motor. That's inlikely, but you should investigate. If it had headlights they obviously won't work. Just use common sense around exposed moving parts and it should be fine. |
- Posted by air_raider z7 sc (My Page) on Thu, Apr 29, 10 at 22:55
That seems reasonable. I was wondering if the hood controlled engine temp. Will keep on using it for now. Thanks |
Unless it is a liquid cooled engine you should have a crankshaft driven fan blowing air through a shroud across the head and cylinder(s). |
Yeah I repaired the hood with sheet metal and bolts. It lasted for several yrs. I keep the mower in a shed, so it doesnt really need a hood. |

The live-action "Oshin" was supposedly based on true stories, as related in hundreds of letters sent to a women's magazine. A huge worldwide hit, it was screened in over 40 countries.

Of my five children, one is in Australia for a year, one is at Purdue University, one is at IU and the other two are still young enough to be safely home with mommy. Thanksgiving was my first holiday to experience the joy of welcoming two kids home, while at the same time battling the melancholy that settled into my heart due to one child not celebrating with us at all.
The most precious valuable gift you can ever hope to offer any human being is this one, simple, true thing: You.
-Your presence, showing up.
-Being in the company of another, undistracted, unhurried, with an open heart, gentle hands and a patient soul.
-Willing and able to listen, do something or do nothing, willing to be surprised by whatever emerges in the soil of sharing your present, loving company with another human being.
With our first "snow" already behind us, the possibility of inclement weather continues to increase and we think more and more about the transportation of students on snowy or icy roads. However, I take comfort in knowing we have a great staff that works tirelessly to make decisions on closing or delaying school, always keeping the safety of our students as their top priority.
I sat on the couch, making my Thanksgiving grocery list, while hubby and our seven-year-old daughter laid on their bellies and colored pictures in front of the fireplace. My ears perked up when I heard daughter ask, "Wouldn't it be weird if you could live without a head?"
One never knows what's taking place in the mind of a child. I smiled as I heard hubby say, "Have you ever heard of…"
Over the last month I have seen and heard more Christmas commercials than ever and we haven't even gotten to Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving has become the forgotten holiday which is sadly all too common in America. For a land blessed with such an amazing bounty we sure do have a lot of whining, moaning and complaining about the lack of stuff and that is just under my own roof. Have you decided to give a living will of thankfulness to your family and friends? What keeps you from being more thankful?
There are a couple of friends on my Christmas list that are virtually impossible to shop for. Maybe you have a few of those names on your list.
They have everything they need and most everything they want. These are also the people who have made it abundantly clear that they dislike gift cards, as they require "no thoughtfulness" on the part of the purchaser.
And the year I attempted to hand make all my Christmas gifts was not received especially well by these particular folks who probably donated those rather amateurish craft items to charity.
As I prepared to write this article, I went to my designated writing spot, our enclosed front porch with the comfy furniture. I want to sit there in the bright light of day and write while I sip hot tea. It sounds idyllic, but the reality is a slight modification from your mental image of this scenario.
I know fundraisers who send Thanksgiving cards instead of Christmas or Holiday cards. Each year around Thanksgiving time, they think back over the past year, pick out the people who have been especially good to them and mail them a thank-you note.
They do this thinking and then they do their thanking. In so doing, they relive the fact that in our language the word "thank" comes from the word "think." Experience verifies that the thankful person is the thoughtful person.
It's a new Era.
You're likely to hear that a lot over the coming weeks. Maybe you've heard it before. But the fact remains that The Oldham Era of the last few years is no more.
Rest assured, this is a good thing.
As you may or may not know, The Oldham Era has gone through a wealth of changes in the last year, most of which were out of this newspaper's and its staff's hands. Those formidable changes are behind us as a newspaper and you as a community.

Latin Influence in the US
Miami is a large city in south Florida that has a very active and vibrant Latin American flair to it. A hotspot for many immigrants from the Caribbean and Latin America, it has a unique and fun flair.
Miami has established itself as a hub in the Southeastern part of the US that features beautiful beaches, excellent food and nightlife and a thriving economy centered on international banking. The Miami International Airport is the biggest airport that serves most of the air traffic that comes to the Miami area. It is one of the largest international airports in the US. Miami is also a hugely popular port, typically serving as the embarkation point for many Caribbean cruises.
Beaches and Nightlife
Some of the biggest draws for visitors to Miami include the beaches and nightlife. Two of the most popular beaches that are considered to be must see are Miami Beach and South Beach. Both are known for having strips of sand, palm trees, clear blue water and plenty of high end beach bars and cabanas to enjoy.
In Miami Beach the nightlife really reigns supreme. People from all over the world flock to Miami each year to partake in the Winter Music Conference, an event that hosts hours of the most popular dance, techno and trance DJs and songs in the world. To spend a vacation dancing the night away, head to Ink, Mansion and Space while in Miami.
Arts and Sports
The Latin flair of the city is also embraced in the Miami arts scene which can be witnessed in some of the many local shops and boutiques that can be found around many of Miami's neighborhoods. To see some of Miami's best art exhibits head to Art Basel Miami, which is home to the largest art exhibition in the world, as well as the Miami Art Museum and the Frost Art Museum.
Another big draw to those visiting Miami has to be the sports options in the city. Home to four professional teams, the Dolphins, Panthers, Heat and Marlins, as well as a number of prominent college teams, the area is a sports fans dream destination to catch a game.

My mom gave me this wonderful Fabriano journal/sketchbook a while ago and I've been trying to use it more, as of late. In the past, I've had this weird hangup where I only like drawing on very smooth (usually cheap) white paper, but I'm trying to change so my sketches aren't always on random little scraps of paper stuffed in my purse.
I was looking back through some of my sketchbooks from high school and it's funny because it seems that I've always liked sketching from ads and fashion editorials. I'll have to share some of the olds ones sometime...
Lisa Fonssagrives-Penn wearing a mantel coat by Balenciaga, 1950
I also like to draw things that I want for my own, like this coat.
Stella McCartney alien thing
...and strange little creatures wearing designer clothing. I like to draw those, too.

Did you know that the early education you choose for your child will affect how they learn for the rest of their life?
Children grow and change at incredible rates in their early years, especially before the age of 6. We are dedicated to supporting children to develop positive associations with learning. Their first impressions last a lifetime.
When they feel capable and inspired, children carry an optimistic attitude toward learning that affects how they approach challenges, problem solving, and critical thinking.
Our program is distinctly different than other early childhood learning opportunities. How do children develop these essential skills for success? Learn more by visiting our "Why Montessori?" page.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The bandwagon jumpers in the tech and financial media have loaded their echo chambers with Apple (AAPL - Get Report) wants Beats because it wants Jimmy Iovine. That's what one scribe and talking head after another continues to regurgitate. While technically accurate, it's a surface scratch. But let's forge ahead for a deeper feel for what I think is really going on.
If Apple loved Jimmy Iovine so much, it would have offered him a trillion dollars in cash and stock to leave Beats. Pretty simple. There's no reason or logic behind Apple making a $3.2 billion acquisition just to obtain one -- or even a few individuals. It's intellectually lazy (and lacking) to latch onto the notion of an Apple takeout of Beats being an acui-hire.
Here's the deal as I have pieced it together via my own noodling as well as on-the-record conversations with people in the know and off-the-record winks and nods with other people also in the know ...
- Yes, Apple wants Beats' headphone business. It makes money. And Apple can integrate and enhance it nicely. We've already established that.
- Yes, Apple wants Beats Music, which, as even I have failed to realize, is an extension of Beats Electronics. So the profitable parent company (so to speak) bankrolled those Super Bowl commercials (and other marketing crash bang) to brand Beats Music as said extension of Beats Electronics. Beats Music is part of the trajectorial (my word) vision of the people behind Beats headphones.
- Clearly, music is the central focus of the overall Beats strategy, be it headphones or streaming media. Apple believes music can be and should be a central focus of its wide-ranging ecosystem which drives hardware sales and it's now relatively underwhelming mobile advertising business.
- It's not simply that Apple wants Iovine. It's deeper than that. Each of the folks at Beats stand for something strategically. And it's all quite coherent as it comes together.
- For example, Trent Reznor, as much as I don't care for his approach, is the musician obsessed with giving musicians control over their brand across the Web. Nobody does that yet. MySpace came closest, but that's as good as gone. Beats wants to assume and perfect that function.
- Jimmy Iovine is not only the marketing mastermind with rock solid music industry footholds and relationships, he's also the guy who believes he -- along with the entire team at Beats Music -- can change behavior. He can get people, including young people, to buy streaming muisc subscriptions. Tall order, but that's what Beats aspires to do -- complete the transition from the death of downloads to the birth of buying as much music as you want in the cloud for ten bucks a month.
Now that that's established on to Page Two to pull it all together ...

Don't worry though, we have a lot more Men's Button-Down Short-Sleeve Shirts in stock than that.
As part of their pledge to lessen impact on our planet's natural resources and bring attention to ecological issues facing the world, every time someone purchases a Falcon V.Co Logical Shirt, Volcom has promised to release a falcon into the wild. Upon further research, though, we discovered that by 'falcon' they mean 'Falcon Shirt' and by 'release into the wild' they mean 'send to you'—so it really turns out that they're just fulfilling their part of the buyer-seller agreement. That said, the Falcon Shirt is PVC-free and made with organic cotton and water base inks—so that should make you happy.

The body of a toddler was found under a bridge in Diepsloot, north of Johannesburg, on Saturday, Gauteng police said.

of Cyrene, a Christian teacher at Antioch ( Acts 13:1 ), and Paul's kinsman ( Romans 16:21 ). His name is Latin, but his birthplace seems to indicate that he was one of the Jews of Cyrene, in North Africa.
lu'-shi-us, lu'-shus (Loukios, Leukios):
A Roman consul who is said (1 Macc 15:16) to have written a letter to Ptolemy Euergetes securing to Simon the high priest and to the Jews the protection of Rome. As the praenomen only of the consul is given, there has been much discussion as to the person intended. The weight of probability has been assigned to Lucius Calpurnius Piso, who was one of the consuls in 139-138 BC, the fact of his praenomen being Cneius and not Lucius being explained by an error in transcription and the fragmentary character of the documents. The authority of the Romans not being as yet thoroughly established in Asia, they were naturally anxious to form alliances with the kings of Egypt and with the Jews to keep Syria in check. The imperfections that are generally admitted in the transcription of the Roman letter are not such as in any serious degree to invalidate the authority of the narrative in 1 Maccabees.

This name is mentioned twice:
(1) In the church at Antioch which sent out Barnabas and Saul as its missionaries were several prophets and teachers, among whom was Lucius of Cyrene (Acts 13:1). He was probably one of those "men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the Greeks also" (Acts 11:20). It has been suggested that he is the same as Luke, but this is merely conjecture.
(2) "Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen" were among those who joined Paul in saluting the Christians in Rome (Romans 16:21). By "kinsmen" Paul means "Jews" (compare Romans 9:3; 16:11,21). This Lucius may have been the same person as (1), but, as we have no more information about either, we cannot determine this.

5 Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Posted: 09/04/2010Easiest wa to put it,- if you got an ipod touch they're more or less the same when it comes to playing games and usage of the device! of course without phone functions, but when it comes to apps theres so many cool ones about that use functions not availible on the touch e.g. apps that use the camera or mic, though the touch does have a mic built into the headphones, if you want to decrease the amount you carry around the iphone is for you, you'll have internet, ipod, camera/video camera, sat nav, phone, organizer, games console (some of the games graphics are awesome - better than DS/psp.) downside - cant seem to send or receive photos through bluetooth to/from other make phones! but seriously thats it! BUY ONE!
4 Does what it says on the tin!Posted: 09/04/2010Just bought this phone for my nan, it normally takes her ages to get used to phones, but it only took her a couple of hours for this one! Its also got a cool light at the top of this phone just press the up button twice on the directional pad! downside - when i was entering the numbers i kept hitting other keys! They seem to be very small! apart from that a bargin!
5 Never even entered my game radar!Posted: 16/11/2009To start off i'm not a fps fan! Bought this because everyone at work did, and recommeded i did the same! Now i'm totally addicted to the game! Story mode is brilliant! I've heard the first game had a short story mode! This one in my opinion was a good size! With a really god story! The multiplayer is so addictive! Hard to get into at first, but within a couple of hours you'll be dealing out head shots in no time! Goes to show, if you try something new you just might like it, or in this case get totally addicted to it! Must buy!
5 Street Fighter Back 2 Winning Ways!!Posted: 12/03/2009Really cool graphics, great 2 look at! Lots of Characters (to unlock)! My only problem with this game is that the 360 pad doesnt do the game any justice! the high punch/kick buttons are RB and RT making it a bit harder to pull off combos etc! might be worth buying the pad made for the game?

AidWEST returns from first medical mission
DULUTH -- AidWEST, a recently formed nonprofit medical support and humanitarian organization founded by a Duluth businessman, recently celebrated the return of its first medical mission team from Haiti.
The team of six volunteers served for a week in February in Haiti and the Dominican Republic, performing a range of medical, communications and infrastructure projects to aid victims of the devastating January earthquake.
AidWEST was founded by John Elliott, an advertising creative director with little prior medical experience who sought ways to directly help some of the millions of victims of the January Haitian earthquake. Just 36 hours after the disaster, he departed for a week of cleaning and dressing patient wounds in three hospitals on the Haiti/Dominican Republic border. He subsequently returned to Georgia to quickly assembly a group of volunteers prepared to address the ongoing medical needs of victims.
The medical support mission group was composed of Duluth resident Stephanie Consie, Suwanee resident Rick Hodder, Lawrenceville resident Ellen Jones, Lawrenceville resident Jamie Smith and Duluth resident Milinda Bell. Elliott was the team leader.
A subsequent team worked in March in a new medical clinic in the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince. Other projects include building a library of French and Creole books and continued physical and emotional therapy.
For more information, visit www.aidwest.org.
Peachtree Ridge Dance Company set to perform
SUWANEE -- The Peachtree Ridge Dance Company will perform "Abstract Perception," a dance concert with tap, jazz, contemporary, modern and hip hop pieces, at 7:30 p.m. Friday and 2:30 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday in the high school's fine arts theater.
One of the modern pieces, choreographed by Brandon Chitwood, features eight 4-D seats that work within the dance piece to allow the audience members to experience the dance through sight, sound and touch.
The Ridge Dance Company consists of 150 dancers, and several alumni have returned to set pieces, including A.K. Hada, Nicole George and Deana Toma. Alumni Sanju Rai and Ralph Reed have come back to help with the elaborate set that moves throughout the show, the 4-D seats and the moving lights.
Tickets are $8, or $15 for 4-D seats.
Organization plans Walk-a-thon
NORCROSS -- I Am B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L. is hosting the 2010 Walk It Out! Walk-a-thon on April 17 in Pinckneyville Park in Norcross.
The event supports the GIRLS (Gaining Insight and Real Life Skills) Leadership Program, an eight-month prevention program designed to increase self-esteem in girls ages 10 to 19.
Registration costs $10 and includes a T-shirt, snacks and more. Registration will begin at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, and the walk begins at 10:30 a.m.

San Pancho: A Little Slice of Paradise: Deserted powdery white beaches and a traditional small-town feel await you at San Francisco, affectionately known as San Pancho. Located in the state of Nayarit, about an hour north of Vallarta along Highway 200 — away from the high-energy experience of nearby Puerto Vallarta — this beautiful town invites rest and relaxation.
Peter Gray: We're fortunate - and it's compliment to Puerto Vallarta - that this self-effacing Brit, who held an impressive job as Latin America's marketing director for Proctor & Gamble overseeing operations in 15 countries, chose to retire here.
Chu: A cuddly lamb named Chu becomes an overnight success, after being discovered in 2006 at a furniture show in Guadalajara! Formerly a member of an eclectic family of stuffies, Chu was first spotted by Make-A-Wish Mexico's President Bob Mandel, who instantly fell in love with the yellow lamb, after seeing the positive effect that he had on everyone who laid eyes on him at the furniture show.
Al Cardeña: Al Cardeña arrived in Puerto Vallarta with his family in 1969, in an era when the television and the phone still did not exist here, and a at time when only eight cars took control of the few existing streets. A talented and visionary businessman known for his passion at work, he lived here for 38 years until his recent passing.
Robert "Bud" Acord: Many knew Bud Acord from his beloved Hacienda Jalisco. While he himself was not the hacienda, the place was imbued with his loving care and affection. Most may not remember the earlier days when Bud arrived in Puerto Vallarta, a time when the small gringo community was united or, at least, connected.
Ricardo Murrieta: It's not unusual to arrive at Puerto Vallarta's Los Mangos Public Library and find director Ricardo Murrieta Grada engrossed in its activities, just as he was when he took over the position seven years ago.
Mikki Prost: Mikki Prost, who arrived in Vallarta by sailboat in 1990, is a singer, dancer, actress, yoga teacher and business owner with seemingly boundless energy and a propensity toward altruism.
Jose Raul Rodriguez: If you want to learn about Mascota's history, the best place to visit is Jose Raul Rodriguez's museum. Rodriguez is a Mascota native who has vowed to pay homage to his town's history and celebrities.
Las Caletas: Sun, Surf and Sea Lions: It's not that I don't love working in an office enveloped in artificial light, but as a free spirit and fun-loving, outdoorsy kind of girl, I'm always eager for an adventure that takes me out of the office and into the sunshine — all in the name of research, of course! Sea lions have fascinated me since my childhood, their cute dog-like faces and antics reminding me of a seafaring golden retriever.
Juan Pablo Hernández: Born in Porvenir, Nayarit, photographer, writer and singer Juan Pablo Hernández, came from humble beginnings but never gave up on his dreams.
Yelapa, "A Must," by Sunset Magazine: Yelapa, the fishing village 45 minutes away from Puerto Vallarta by boat, was recently named the number one place that you've got to see by Sunset magazine. The top ten list includes the name of exotic destinations such as Malibu, San Francisco, Denver, San Miguel de Allende, among others.
Josef Kandoll: Josef Kandoll is a fine example of a person who communicates with a strong conviction. A former artistic photography student and a participant in several journalism workshops, he has captured creative images since his childhood, through his lens and via his writing.
Recicla Parque, A Special "entreamigos" Project in San Pancho: Recicla Parque is an initiative of the entreamigos (Between Friends) group, to build a playground in San Pancho, Nayarit, which will be constructed almost entirely out of recycled materials.
Readers' Choice Awards 2008 Are Here!:
Welcome to the 2008 edition of Virtual Vallarta's Readers' Choice Poll. You have until June 15 to submit your vote. All winners will be announced July 1st.
Please click HERE to launch this year's poll.
North Shore Restaurants and Their Stories: Fervor for food, family and their special locations on the Riviera Nayarit links eight extraordinary and diverse restaurateurs who have each established unique and beloved eateries. Hailing from as far as New Zealand and as close as Vallarta, each brings distinctive experience and imparts an individual flavor, not just to the fare but to the entire dining experience.
Jorge Dueñas: While a prophet in his own land may expect no honor, that didn't deter Jorge Dueñas Peña from returning to his native San Sebastián del Oeste.
Bob Price: In 2004, Bob Price moved to Puerto Vallarta, yearning to return to and explore the unique terrain and biodiversity of the mountainous area near El Tuito. This magnificent landscape had been imprinted on his mind from his first exposure to the area some 20 years before.
Petr Myska: Originally from the Czech Republic, Petr Myska arrived in Vallarta for the first time in 2000. He was joyously overwhelmed with the multitude of plants and animals he encountered in our diverse ecosystem; however, he found it challenging to identify many of them, as there were no comprehensive field guides available.
Manuel Ramírez: Manuel Ramirez Miranda came to Puerto Vallarta 30 years ago to manage the local Lloyd branch. He got the job while vacationing in Guadalajara, after serving for two years in the US Army during the Vietnam War.
Escape to Yelapa: It's easy to take Yelapa for granted, at least for those who live in Puerto Vallarta year round. After all, seeking refuge at this laid-back village by the sea is as simple as hopping on one of the water taxis that aim for it on a daily basis and enjoying the picturesque 45-minute coastal ride.

Continuing education is a huge priority for Jill and her Genesis staff, and it shows in their expertise. Clients can request a sharp scissor cut, custom color, or sleek tapered highlights to flatter their individual features.

By: Jon Walker Tuesday September 24, 2013 9:30 am |
It was clear this plan was ill-conceived and unworkable from the very beginning, but almost no one in the party was willing to say that at the time. None of the important leaders in the party were willing to quickly dismiss it. Instead they just hoped it would go away on its own — but that just let it grow.

Corker Actually Calls Bullshit on McConnell Over Nuclear Option Deal |
By: Jon Walker Thursday July 18, 2013 8:50 am |
The idea that the minority party has power over routine issues in the Senate is total nonsense. The minority only has power because the majority has maintained a tradition of needlessly giving the minority non-constitutional veto. As soon as the majority decides to end this silly practice, the minority loses all leverage.

House Republicans left behind eight "conferees" for a conference on the payroll tax/UI/doc fix bill, and plan to hold showy events where they sit in a room alone, but Democrats have adamantly refused to reopen negotiations until the short-term bill passes. Meanwhile, half of the conferees opposed the payroll tax cut extension as recently as a few weeks ago. So far, nobody's buying the GOP spin.

Does anyone know how to make a bamboo ladle like this:
http://www.japanesegifts.com/images/ladel6.jpg I find it impossible to find anyone to buy at a reasonable cost (not more than 15 euros).. So I was thinking about making one by myself. So if anyone has ideas on how to make them, then im all ears ;) kind regards
Follow-Up Postings:
Hida Tool (hidatool.com) sells a wooden bowled ladle for a very reasonable price. You may need to call them as I don't know if they offer it on line. The veneer and bamboo ladles are hard to make, don't last long outdoors, and are indeed expensive. |
Okay, thanks :( If I had bamboo thick enough, I should try and make one myself ;) /henrik |

hi Henrik, I make my own,they are very easy to make if you have the right size bamboo, I maybe lucky but I can buy plenty here in the UK in fact I have just bought two 6' pieces today. take a look at this link it shows one that I made recently. http://koi-z-are-us.20m.com/shishi.htm George. |

You can get a decent priced bamboo ladle at http://www.mastergardenproducts.com/bambooladle.htm |
Here is a link that might be useful: bamboo ladle
Hi Henric Many of us move to myjapanesegarden.org. Visit to the web site. We use Madake, hachiku, and moso to make ladle. Moso bamboo is ofeten used to make ladle because of thickness of wall. After few months to few years it will split. You can treat mamboo with PEG wich prevent spliting. When you drill hole,dril strait ,after tip of dril get into bamboo wall, then chenge angle. if you try to dril angle first, tip of dril bit will slip off. you might want to use masking tape also. to make handle fit, you need to use knif to adjust hole to make handle fit.( or handle) Many peoples like you.if you visit to myjapanesegarden.org |

I was lurking over on the Tennessee forum (have a son in Knoxville so I check occasionally) and they were talking about these little guys, and it hit me I don't think I've seen any this year. I suppose maybe those of you who grew up here kinda take 'em for granted, but I had never seen them before I moved from the west coast. I've heard they have been thinned considerably by the sprays used on crops such as soybeans, but we always had at least a few. Could the mosquito spray program have wiped out the rest of them? Or do you just need to get farther away from the city? Anybody see any? They are so pretty--still remember the first time I saw them. I'd read about them, but words just don't do them justice. |

I have seen a few at my River Road place in Montz, back near the woods where the mosquito spray people don't get to. I believe the mosquito spray has done a lot of damage, but of course, everyone is afraid of the West Nile virus. Took a little boy through the woods in a golf cart after dark so he could see the fireflys (lightning bugs, we called them). He was fascinated. |
I was visiting my sister in Ardmore, OK. and the neighborhood was covered with them. Haven't seen them in La. |

I guess the mosquito spray program is just one of the many trade-offs we make, like the stray cat I let move in because I had a rat problem. (I keep my cat indoors so she won't get smashed on our very busy street.) Very seldom see a rat now, but then she started on the squirrels--lots of replacements, so I'm not as broken-hearted as I might be--and now I see less birds. Major sorrow. And we can't catch her to get her to the vet so she won't have any more babies. I'd like to have a very large butterfly net I could put under their food dish, and have it spring closed when they're all in there. |
I live in the country and my parish does not to my knowledge have a mosquito prevention program. I have a fairly healthy population of fireflies. I live very near a farm but have a large population of insects, frogs, toads, sqirrels and birds so I do not know that what I have would be the norm anywhere else. |
- Posted by greenelbows z9--so LA (My Page) on Wed, Jun 30, 04 at 0:30
The post on the Tennessee forum told about a family that vacationed together in a cabin in the mountains in eastern Tennessee. They had three generation together, and they would all sit out on the porch after dark and watch the fireflies. They co-ordinate their flashes, apparently when they're trying to attract the females, and they would start at the top of the hill and flow down like a ripple of Christmas tree lights. I'd sure like to see that. A couple gardening friends and I were plant hunting today, and I asked if they'd seen any. One gal said she had seen one(!!!!!) The other hadn't seen any. That's really sad. |
They have enough heart stimulant in them to off you. So don't try and do the Shrek thing, people. |
- Posted by greenelbows z9--so LA (My Page) on Sun, Jul 4, 04 at 0:27
Heart stimulant, huh? Wow--does that mean if somebody had trouble when they were out in the woods and they forgot their medicine they could substitue fireflies? Handy bit of information! (Don't do the Shreik thing indeed!) chortle snicker! |
- Posted by bigeasyjock z8Ms (My Page) on Tue, Jul 6, 04 at 13:25
I could be wrong but I have never seen as many firefires in the deep south (New Orleans and even in the country in Ms.) as I did as a kid growing up in Indiana and Kentucky. I've lived here for the last 20 odd years. It could be the spray thing in the city but not in the country in Ms. Mike |
- Posted by Hairy_Potter z8 NWLouisiana (My Page) on Sun, Jul 18, 04 at 9:52
I live in the Highland area of Shreveport...pretty much an older, established neighborhood...and we have fireflies in our backyard. Each evening, just before it becomes fully dark, we sit on our deck and watch them. There are usually only a few at a time, but have seen dozens and dozens on one or two evenings. Of course, they are the typical green color of light, but when I was growing up in Marshall, Texas, I seem to remember also seeing some with reddish lights. Anyone else ever see them? |

When I was visiting my parents in Richland Parish this summer, we saw lightning bugs on the Beouf River behind their house. I know that they spray for mosquitoes in that area, but the lightning bugs seem to be making a comeback anyway. It made me really happy to see them! |

I'd been wondering why I hadn't seen many fireflies down here in coastal Mississippi - it makes sense that the mosquito trucks nuke them, too, hadn't thought of that. I remember the woods being full of them, growing up in Knoxville, and after not seeing them for ages, got to see them in full glory a few years back to a family reunion in middle Tennessee. Sad to think they are a thing of the past in many areas, wish my son could see them as I did! |
Tennessee and North Carolina must be the lightning bug/firefly capitals of the country. I just today read an article in Mother Earth News (June/July 2004, I believe) in which the writer described a walk out into the woods in North Carolina at night and an unbelievable display by the little beatles (not flies). He said there were as many lights from the bugs as stars in the sky in the country at night. I would like to see it. |
