Nils Larsson arrived in New Sweden on the "Swan" in 1648 and, during Rising's administration, served as 'gevaldiger' (warden).
Jean Paul Jaquet reported in a letter dated 9 August 1656 to Governor Peter Stuyvesant in New Amsterdam that Niles Larsen's intended marriage was being postponed for three months by pastor Lars Carlsson Lock in order to investigate the charges (which Jacquet presumed to be false) by a woman of ill repute in Manhattan. (Gehring, "New York Historical Manuscripts (Delaware Papers-Dutch", 68) From this record, it may reasonably be inferred that Nils Larsson was married about November 1656. Source - "The Family of Nils Larsson Frande (Friend)" by Dr. Peter Stebbins Craig, 1988. (See pg. 2)
By 1668 Nils Larsson had adopted the name Frande, meaning "kinsman" or "blood relative" in Swedish. Nils Larsson played a very prominent role in the Swedish community until his death at Upland in the winter of 1686-87. He became known as Nils Larsson Frande, meaning "kinsman" or "blood relative" in Swedish, possibly because of his influence among the Indians who considered him a "blood brother." Under English rule, his adopted surname became anglicized to "Friend."
In 1668, with Olle Rawson and Olle Jonsson, he was granted a permit by the New Jersey governor to buy West Jersey lands in present Gloucester County from the Indians. The resulting acquisition led to a large Swedish settlement centering around Raccoon Creek (present Swedesboro). Nils Larsson Frande also acquired lands in present Bucks County, which he traded to William Penn in return for 800 acres east of Red Clay Creek in New Castle County. Penn built his Pennsbury estate on Frande's former land.
"Laerson, Neels, (alias Friend) an early Swedish inhabitant of Upland. He owned 182 acres of land, embracing what is now the central part of the present town of Chester, most of which subsequently became the property of David Lloyd. The earliest Courts of Upland County of which we have the records, were held at his house, and subsequently at the "House of defence," which was built on his land, where, doubtless, the Courts under the Proprietary government were for some time held. He kept a kind of tavern, and entertained the Justices of the Upland Court, a service which he had also performed for the Justices of an earlier Court, the records of which are now lost. There is evidence that he acted as an arbitrator by appointment of this Court as early as 1673. As early as 1668, in conjunction with Oele Rawson, he purchased land on the east side (New Jersey) of the river, which they had previously bought of the Indians. This noted Swede died in 1689, leaving a widow, Anico, (Ann) and several sons, who were afterwards known by the name of Friend, or had that name as an alias. The widow survived her husband till about the year 1724, when she died at the advanced age of 106 years. (See file of O. C. papers, office of the Clerk of Q. Sessions, West Chester.) From this circumstance it may be concluded that Neels Laerson was a native of Sweden." Source - "History of Delaware County, Pennsylvania From the Discovery of the Territory Included Within its Limits to the Present Time", by George Smith, M.D., Philadelphia: printed by Henry B. Ashmead, Nos. 1102 and 1104 Sanson Street, 1862. (See page 476)
"The Court was held at the house of Neeles Laerson, who also entertained the justices. The account made out by the Court of the public indebtedness to Laerson for "the Charges of Keepeing of Court and Justices dyet there," establishes the fact that the former Court, of which the Records have not been discovered, was held at the same place. Laerson probably kept a public house. His charge for entertaining the Court during its present sitting, which appears to have lasted but one day, was 100 Gilders." Source as above - see page 108.
"The interests of the Church also claimed some of the attention of the Court. "Complaint being made by the Church Wardens that Neeles Laerson has taken in (wth Lotts of Land by him bought of dom: Lasse Carolus here in Upland Towne) some of the Church or glebb Land; - ordered, that Neeles Laerson shall haue his due of the 2 Lotts by him bought of sd dom: Carolus Equall wth the other Lotts in Upland, but for what shall be againe annexed to ye other Church Lotts." Source as above - see pages 120 and 121.
"It is probable that the marsh lands appertaining to any particular settlement along the river, were for a long time held and used as a common pasturage. That this was so in respect to Upland, would appear from a complaint being made by James Sanderling, "In behalfe of ye Rest of ye Inhabitants of Upland that Neeles Laersen wth a fence stopps up the old and usuall way to the fly (marsh); and Neeles Laersen being thereupon heard," the Court ordered the way to be left open as formerly." Source - as above - See page 121.
Nils Larsson's residence was at Upland, where he continued to live until his death in December 1686. His house was the usual meeting place of the Upland Court.
A Map of the Early Settlements of Delaware County, Pennsylvania (Undated), (Lith. of Bowen & Co., Philadelphia) - The North side of Chester Creek at its mouth on the Delaware River - Chester (Upland) - Neals Laerson, David Lloyd - (along waterfront * House of Defence - THE GREEN). Further North - adjoining Albert Hendrickson and Anthy Nealson and Ridley Creek. Behind land of Neals Laerson - James Sunderland's land and David Lloyd's land and Caleb Pusey's land, Chester Mills, Henry Wartry2, Andrew Job and Thomas Brasey.
At the time of his death, Nils Larsson was serving as constable for Chester township. His wife Anna survived him by about 40 years and was said to be over 106 when she died. They had ten children, including Brigitta (married to John Cock, Anders, Catharine (married to Olof Dalbo) and Maria (married to Gabriel Cock). His six younger children lived with their mother in 1693. His sons used the patronymic Nilsson and the surname Friend interchangeably. Ultimately, Friend became the family name. (Source - " The 1693 Census of New Sweden" by Peter Stebbins Craig)
Vrende or Frende (1668). Frande (With an umlaut over the "a") in contemporary Swedish means kinsman. Under the English in the late 1600s the name Frande attached to Nils Larsson's name evolved to Friend.
In 1669 Nils Larsson received a patent for 150 acres of land at Upland, Pennsylvania.
"June 13th, 1670 - To James Sandilands, a grant to him "of a lot of land at Delaware * * * lying in Upland, bounded on the South West by the kill, on the Northeast by the land of Niels Lawson, on the East by Jurian Keen's land and North and by West by the lands of Niels Matson, containing by estimation five acres of ground - as also another piece of land bounded by the kill as above, North & West by the land of Jurian Keen and on the South East by the land of Lawrence Lock." Source - "History of Delaware County, Pennsylvania from the Discovery of the Territory included within its limits to the present time", by George Smith, M. D. 1862. (see page 521)
LOCATION OF THE EARLY COURT HOUSE - The first Court of Upland County of which any record has been preserved, sat at the house of Neeles Laerson, which no doubt was a tavern. Its precise location is not known, but it doubtless occupied a position on the northern part of the lot marked "2." on the old draft of Chester in the possession of Thomas Darlington, a fac simile of which is given at page 138. The southern part of that lot had been recently purchased by Laerson from Eusta Anderson, (See will of "Neels Laerson," Register's office, Philadelphia, Book A. No. 62.) From the universal custom of the Swedes in building, it may also be concluded that the residence of Laerson was very near the creek, and consequently in the immediate vicinity of the House of Defence.
The location of the House of Defence, marked A. on the annexed draft is arrived at with great precision from the description contained in a deed for the adjacent lot, from Lydia, the widow of Robert Wade, to Edward Danger, October 10th, 1699, (Deed Book A. 270, West Chester.) The credit of having first accertained the location of this ancient Court House is due to Edward Armstrong, Esq., of Philadelphia. (See his note to the "Record of Upland Court" p. 202.) Source - "History of Delaware County, Pennsylvania", by George Smith, M.D. Philadelphia: Printed by Henry B. Ashmead, Nos. 1102 and 1104 Sansom Street. 1862.
In 1671 the first English census listed Nils as "Niels Lausa". Upland court records indicate that in 1673 the court met at his house. " The Court was held at the house of Neeles Laerson, who also entertained the justices. The account made out by the Court of the public indebtedness to Laerson for 'the Charges of Keepeing of Court and Justices dyet there,' establishes the fact that the former court, of which the Records have not been discovered, was held at the same place. Laerson probably kept a public house. His charge for entertaining the Court during its present sitting, which appears to have lasted but one day, was 100 Gilders (the Gilder was estimated to be worth about 40 cents of our money). (History of Delaware County, Pennsylvania, pg. 108)
On November 13, 1677 Neeles Laersen and son were granted 200 acres of land "up the river" near Israel Helm, probably in Gloucester County, New Jersey.
About 1678 Nils Larsson acquired the 350 acre plantation of Pastor Lock.
On March 13, 1678/79 Nils Larsson was ordered to leave a lane from Upland Creek to the House of Defense (Block House). The Block House stood on his land (near the present intersection of Front Street and Filbert Street in Chester, Pennsylvania). The "House of Defence," appears to have been built on the private property of Neels Laersen. At the first Court held this year he was ordered "to make or leave a lane or street from Upland creek to ye: house of defence or County house," sufficiently indicates the uses to which the "House of Defence" was now appropriated. We have seen that its completion was urged in order that the Courts might be held there, and it is probable that it was used as a place for the transaction of public business generally. For whatever other purpose the House of Defence may have been used, it was certainly the first Court house within our limits. ( History of Delaware County, Pennsylvania, pg. 122)
In February, 1682/83 Nils (Larsson) of Upland brought suit in Burlington County, New Jersey court against Lassey Coleman. The land in question was by 1686 a part of Gloucester County, New Jersey (300 acres to James Justason, Lassey Coleman and Neales Lawson).
The last session of the Upland Court was held on September 12, 1682. Upland was renamed Chester.
On June 27, 1683 Nils sat on a Grand Jury in Chester County, Pennsylvania.
New Castle County tax list for 1685/86 shows Neels Lawson of Upland owned 700 acres north of Christina Creek. On June 15, 1686 Neales Lawson was granted a tract of 800 acres called "Oak Hill" on the east side of Red Clay Creek in Newcastle County (now part of Delaware).
In September, 1686 Neales Lawson was named Constable of Chester Township.
By early December, 1686 Nils Larsson (Friend) became gravely ill. On December 3, 1686 Nils' son Andrew took over as Constable in his father's place.
On December 20, 1686 Nils made his last will.
"One may reject the notion that there was a daughter named Gertrude who married John Archer or a daughter named Elizabeth who married John Urian (whose name was actually Hans Georgen, which was pronounced and later spelled as "Urian"). The wife of John Archer was Gertrude Bartlesdotter and there is no evidence that I have found suggesting in any way that Hans Georgen's wife Elizabeth was a member of the Friend family." Source - "The Family of Nils Larsson Frande (Friend)", Dr. Peter Stebbins Craig, 1988. (See pg. 3)

Beware this towing company will scam you. I had parked in a adjoining parking lot in Canton Michigan because the other parking lot was full. The parking lot was totally empty i would say a 40 car parking lot. I went into Olgas next door and when I came out my car was gone. Great Lakes towing was on the other side of the building with 2 flat beds with my car and another car. I found out that the owner of this parking lot sits in another parking lot and when someone parks in his lot he calls his buddies (Great Lakes Towing) who are probably sitting not far away. Then when you approach them they say they are taking them back to the yard and you won't be able to get your car because it is closed. They wait for you to call the police because there is nothing you can do then say they will release it to you for four hundred dollars. Never do business with this company

Rep. Bob Filner (D) of California, chairman of the House Veterans Affairs Committee, says years of underfunding and poor leadership are to blame for the system's shortcomings, particularly a shortage of mental-health services for the new veterans.
"It's a long history of not being funded properly," says Representative Filner. "Morale goes down in a place when you get asked to do more and more with less and less."
Even with a 40 percent increase in VA funding over the past two fiscal years, says Filner, spread throughout the VA's vast bureaucracy, the money "takes a while to filter down." Some 250,000 VA employees are spread among about 1,500 facilities from medical centers to community clinics to nursing homes. In the last year, the VA started a suicide hot line, made plans to hire suicide prevention coordinators for each medical center, and convened panels of mental-health experts to advise the department on improving suicide prevention.
Veterans' mental health and suicides have become critical issues. One reason: More survive war thanks to better armor and battlefield treatment, but are also more likely to be left with serious mental injuries, according to experts who have studied US casualty causes and rates in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The VA came under particularly harsh criticism earlier this year when an e-mail surfaced showing that VA officials discussed keeping secret the figure of about 1,000 attempted suicides per month among veterans in VA facilities. The secretary of the VA later said the figure was unreliable, but he got a thorough tongue-lashing from Congress and veterans groups nevertheless.
"To me, we've committed murder," says Filner of reports of veterans who commit suicide while waiting for an appointment to see a VA mental-health specialist.

Hi ritadc,
I am unable to email you from Gardenweb so posting here. I'm interested in your New Dawn climbing rose. I have a basil seedling or two I can offer, and a fair number of starts of other edibles (herbs and veggies, eg. tomatoes, borage, flax) and flowers (Mexican sunflower, four o' clock, cosmos sensation), as well as cuke, melon and squash seeds that can be started in your own garden after the swap. Please take a look at my trade list and let me know if anything else interests you if no one else has claimed the rose! Thanks!
Here is a link that might be useful: My Trade List

I have a Craftsman door opener and I think that lightening fried my logic board. Any Idea how you open it up to reach the logic board?
Also the green light on my receiving sensor is out. Could this just be beause of the logic board or do i need to replace the sensors? |

The light out on the sensor sure could be part of your logic board problem. To get to the logic board you need to remove the cover from the motor unit. There are 2 screws on each side. Check the logic board from burnt or missing traces on the printed circuit especially around the small transformer. Be sure to note the location of all the white wires on the end of the unit. They all look the same but are not. |

Even if you don't find any visible indicators of a lightning strike, the logic board may still be fried from the strike. Not all lightning damage is visible. I had lightning take out a logic board, and it still looked brand new. |

hi. i have a marantec m-4700 and since a recent power outage, now when the door closes and hits the ground, it reverses. i reset the travel and force but still have an issue. can someone plz confirm if this sounds like it is the logic board? thanks. |
Thanks for the help on getting to the logic board. When I called Sears Parts, they said that it looked like all I had to do was pull the back end of the unit down and back. I could tell that was wrong and I really didn't feel comfortable standing on a ladder and trying to force the issue. Once I removed the screws (on my unit they are in the front next to the lightbulbs) the cover came off easily and so did the logic board. The replacement board (an identical cheaper Liftmaster board)solved the problem. |

Mini guide to Valle d'Aosta, Italy
The Matterhorn dominates the horizon. (Gareth McCormack/LPI)
Valle d'Aosta in northwestern Italy is a dramatic glacial valley overlooked by the Matterhorn and Mont Blanc.
The region offers good skiing and hiking, Roman ruins in the town of Aosta, vernacular architecture and some impressive medieval and Renaissance castles.
Bounced around between France and Italy in the Middle Ages, the town of Aosta remains bilingual. Once an important Roman settlement, the Roman theatre with its 22-metre-high façade is particularly impressive (Via Porta Praetoria, Aosta; 9am-7pm Sep-Jun, to 8pm Jul-Aug; free).
Fontina cheese must be made from full-cream unpasteurised milk of Valdostan cows that have grazed above 2,700 metres. Learn about cheese-making traditions at the Valpelline Visitors' Centre (00 39 0165 73309; fontinacoop.it; Frissonière; 8.30am-12.30pm and 2.30pm-6.30pm).
The Aosta valley is lined with castles, each within view of the next so that messages could be passed via a system of flags. The nearest to Aosta and one of the grandest is the restored Castello di Fénis (00 39 0165 73309; Fénis; 9am-12.30pm and 1.30pm-5pm Sep-Jun, to 8pm Jul-Aug).
Linked by cable car to its French cousin Chamonix, Courmayeur is a nexus for skiers bound for the high slopes in winter, while in summer it is a prime hiking destination. The Scuola di Sci Monte Bianco offers ski lessons (00 39 0165 842477; scuolasci montebianco.com; £30 per hour).
The Gran Paradiso National Park was established in 1922 to protect the endangered ibex. The Giardino Alpino Paradisia is a fantastic Alpine botanical garden within the park (00 39 0165 74147; Valnontey; 10am-5.30pm Jun-mid-Sep, to 6.30pm Jul-Aug; £2.50).
Eat and drink
Perched at the first midstation on the Punta Helbronner cable car at a heady height of 2,173 metres, Rifugio Pavillon is a traditional mountain refuge with a deckchairlined terrace. Tuck into cabbage rolls with chestnuts, and pasta in venison sauce (00 39 0165 844090; Pavillon du Mt Frety, Courmayeur; lunch Dec-Oct; mains £8-£14).
Offering pizzas, steaks and hearty après-ski cooking, La Terraza is a popular restaurant in the centre of town. You'll also find Valdostan dishes including polenta, spicy sausage, fondue and pasta with fontina (00 39 0165 843330; Via Circonvalazione 73, Courmayeur; lunch and dinner; mains from £12).
Expect fabulous Valdostan cuisine at cosy Trattoria degli Artisti. Antipasti such as puff pastry filled with fondue, cured ham and salami are followed by mains of beef braised in Morgex et de La Salle wine (00 39 0165 40960; Via Maillet 5-7; lunch and dinner Tue-Sat; mains £12-£18).
Ad Forum is set in a pretty garden in Aosta and is built on the site of the Roman forum. Dishes such as risotto with strawberries and spumante, and lasagnetta with pear and blue cheese are generous (adforum-enoteca.com; Via Mons de Sales 11, Aosta; Tue-Sun; mains £12-£22).
Hotel Ristorante Petit Dahu serves rustic food such as mushroom polenta, and venison stewed with wild Alpine herbs in its wood-panelled dining room (hotelpetitdahu.com; Valnontey; lunch and dinner, closed May and Oct; menu £30).
Albergo Mancuso is a family-run hotel with simply furnished double rooms with terracotta-tiled floors. It's a friendly place and the owners will help you to secure a discount in a few local restaurants (00 39 0165 060333; albergomancuso.com; Via Voison 32, Aosta; from £45).
Right beside the imposing hulk of Mont Blanc, Hotel Bouton d'Or serves a hearty breakfast, has a sauna, fantastic views and a lounge full of interesting Alpine paraphernalia. It also offers a shuttle service to the cable car (00 39 0165 846729; hotelbouton dor.com; Strada Statale 26/10, Courmayeur; from £100).
Old wooden skis, traditionally carved wooden shoes, claw-foot baths, indoor and outdoor pools, a Jacuzzi, sauna and gym, and sumptuous skiers' breakfasts make Hotel Milleluci seem more like a palace than a converted farmhouse. Set on a hillside, its balconied rooms look out to the twinkling lights of Aosta below (00 39 0165 235278; hotelmilleluci.com; Loc Porossan 15, Aosta; from £130).
Overlooking the meadows, the green-shuttered Hotel Bellevue 14 evokes its 1920s origins with canopied timber beds, cowbells strung from beams, and open fireplaces. Afternoon tea and use of the spa is included (00 39 0165 74825; hotelbellevue.it; Rue Grand Paradis 22, Cogne; closed mid-Oct-mid-Nov; from £140).

"What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family."
― Mother Teresa
Much love going out to KrisAinTx for being the Torch Bearer and bringing us together to this wonderful place of sharing and caring first thing in the morning. Yes, there are bears here. Also much love going out to this community, a group of folks with big hearts who enjoy the beginning of the day together. And, of course, big thanks to Jane Hamsher for creating this site in the first place.
I woke up earlier than I planned this morning, so I came in to start the coffee and noticed that someone had put up a beautifully hand-painted Eggzit sign over the door. I think it was Nonquixote. Thanks, guy. If we need to make a hasty retreat, we know where to go.
Also, I noticed that another elf had placed new curtains on the windows. They look suspiciously home made, so I'm assuming Molly has been busy at her sewing machine.
I want to give a hat tip to Otchmoson for asking the question yesterday,
Has anyone heard any mention of the potential for post-Sandy diseases. If homeless and others failed to survive, I've been wondering where all the rats (yeah, the non-human kind) go when their habitat has been flooded?
"We didn't have anywhere to go,"
Evangelicals Give Obama 92 Days To Tackle Immigration
It's kinda scary and weird and totally strange to be sitting in this chair, but Richard would oftentimes end with something sweet. Some of your know that I've taken up walking in the park second thing in the morning. I thought this quote from Ellen DeGeneres would be nice to share.
"My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was sixty. She's ninety-seven now, and we don't know where the heck she is."
― Ellen DeGeneres
Coffee, Tea and non-lint croissants and bagels are on the counter. I recommend the salmon cream cheese.

10 Books You Won't Believe Were Published
Posted: June 20, 2014 Filed under: Books, Top 10 | Tags: bad book covers, bad book titles, books, funny, funny books, humor, literature, ridiculous books Comments Off…and the reviewers who actually read them.
1. People Who Don't Know They're Dead: How They Attach Themselves to Unsuspecting Bystanders and What to Do About It
Author Gary Leon Hill tells of his family's work luring dead spirits from the bodies of very alive people they've held hostage.
There are actually quite a few Goodreads reviews of this one, and it seems to generate love-hate (but mostly hate) reactions:
Anita Dalton rated it 1 of 5 stars
Unusual beliefs make the world more interesting. But there are times when bad, bad writing combine with bad, dangerous information, and I am left with nothing but snark. If Penn Jillette read this book, he would s#@* blood.
Heather rated it 5 of 5 starsAnyone with an open mind should explore the pages of this non-fiction journey. It'll make you think about things that you wouldn't naturally consider. I loaned this to a co-worker and haven't seen it since!
Maybe the spirits took it?
2. How to Avoid Huge Ships
The kicker with this one is that it's labeled as the "Second Edition." It's hard to imagine what the first edition might have left out. Unsurprisingly, Poets & Writers hailed it as the "worst book ever" back in 2011, despite its $131 price tag and huge underground following. They also rounded up some of its snarkiest Amazon reviews, which are well worth a read:
I bought How to Avoid Huge Ships as a companion to Captain Trimmer's other excellent books: How to Avoid a Train, and How to Avoid the Empire State Building. These books are fast paced, well written and the hard won knowledge found in them is as inspirational as it is informational. After reading them I haven't been hit by anything bigger than a diesel bus. Thanks, captain!
Read this book before going on vacation and I couldn't find my cruise liner in the port. Vacation ruined.
Could This Be the Worst Book Cover of All Time?
Posted: June 5, 2014 Filed under: Books, Novels | Tags: bad book covers, book covers, books, classic novels, classics, cover art, literature, novels Comments OffWell, no. That title probably goes to this…
Or this…
Or this…
However, it is possibly the worst cover of a classic novel ever published.
(Wait, are you saying Henry James' 1891 novel The Turn of the Screw isn't actually about screws?!)
No. It's not about screws.

Croatia is a northern hemisphere destination with Mediterranean and continental climatic conditions. The continental climate is predominant with hot summers and cold winters. Along the Adriatic coast, dry summers are experienced with mild winters. Our cruises operate during the Croatian summer, when temperatures are generally high (particularly from June through September), so pack sunscreen and a hat, as the sun can be strong.

The Adriatic coast is renowned for its variety of seafood dishes including freshly caught line and net fish and shellfish. We include breakfast and lunch, leaving you the opportunity to make your own independent arrangements for dinner. If you're a seafood lover, you should reserve your appetite for dinner in port at one of the various local restaurants.
Owing to its geographical location, Croatian gastronomy is steeped in Mediterranean tradition. The Dubrovnik area is famed for its fish from the River Neretva, hard sheep milk cheese and oysters from Ston are outstanding. Further along in Split, the best types of Adriatic fish from dory to red mullet once enjoyed by the Roman emperor Diocletian are still enjoyed today. Istria in Croatia's north is famed for its highly valued truffles including the white truffle – Tuber magnatum.
The Kvarner region, specifically the islands of Cres, Krk and Rab are famed for succulent, sweet-tasting lamb. Small goods such as cured cheeses and meats are popular in Croatia. The most highly acclaimed cheese in Croatia is paski sir, a sheeps milk cheese from the island of Pag, whilst the salami-like kulen from Slavonia in Croatia's northeast is the king of cured sausage. Luganige, a sausage served in Split is also good. The hard and soft cheeses of the Kvarner islands are also very popular.
Beyond seasoned meats, fresh fish and other fruits de mer, cheeses, small goods, delectable olives, capers and freshly baked breads, fruit and vegetables are also big. Inland, Zagreb grows the best strawberries, small fruits such as plums and exotic mushrooms, whilst fig and almond trees persevere in the south. Istria is famed for its spring asparagus. If you have a sweet tooth, try Rozata (crème caramel) a traditional desert of Dubrovnik.
Croatian wine and beers are of a high quality. Beer drinkers should try Zagreb's Ozujsko pivo or Karlovacko pivo or Tuborg, brewed under license in Croatia. In Dalmatia, some red wines such as Faros or Dingac are exquisite. You should also try Croatia's favourite brandy sljivovica, made from plums, or travarica, an herbal brandy. Coffee (espresso) is also a popular beverage, if crying out for a java jolt.
For info about the food served on the ship, please look at 'Boats & More'
Traditional handicrafts such as embroidery, woodcarvings and ceramics make good souvenirs, as do Croatian-produced wine, olives oils and preserves.
Olives have been growing in Croatia since Roman times, and many stuffed and bottled varieties can be purchased including olives stuffed with dried fig, almonds, fennel, capers, anchovy and of course, regular pimiento.
Avjar, a tasty relish made from grilled red pepper, aubergine (eggplant), garlic, olive oil and chili is available in jars and offers a tasty reminder with bread and cheese of that wonderful holiday you've just enjoyed in Croatia!
Eduard Slavoljub Penkala (1871-1922) was a Zagreb-based inventor, who invented the auto-pencil in 1906. Penkala brand writing instruments are available in some stationary shops dotted across Croatia.
Another consideration is a necktie. Replete with a traditional Croat design, of course. Why a necktie? Why, the Croatians stake claim to having invented them! Croatian soldiers in Napoleon's army wore a kind of scarf. The name for this scarf evolved in the word cravat over time in reference to the 'Croat's that wore them.
Presently tourists can reclaim VAT on expenditure of more than HRK500. Visitors should ensure that they retain all receipts.

By Sean Michael Ragan:
The Joule Thief (Wikipedia) is a well-known "instant gratification" hobby circuit that uses just a handful of components to pull off a pretty impressive parlor trick — using a single 1.5V battery, the Joule Thief can light a high-voltage blue or white LED that normally requires 3.5V or greater to turn on. Even more impressive, it can do so using a battery that is so drained of energy as to be counted "dead" for almost all other purposes. I have not measured this value myself, but it is commonly claimed that a Joule Thief can light a white LED from a battery with an open-circuit voltage as low as 0.6.
Bring "dead" batteries back to life with a toroid and the Joule Thief circuit. - [Link]
by bitsofmymind.com:
The Joule thief is a really fascinating circuit, simple yet very intricate. Basically, it's a step-up converted in its most elementary expression. I will spare you the theory since there is plenty of information on it on the web; rustybolt.info is a good place to start.
Joule thieves in all sorts of forms have been featured countless time on DIY websites and I felt it was time I build one. However, I did not want to leave the circuit at the breadboard stage because as it stands, the joule thief has characteristics that make it very attractive for all sorts of low power applications and I figured a flash light would be a very good home for a joule thief, where having the option of using dead batteries is certainly a big plus not to mention using less cells because the circuit steps the voltage up. Why dead batteries? Because a battery is never really dead, its voltage just falls down logarithmically until it hits a point where the device it was powering up stops functioning, which does not mean the battery is totally drained but rather that its voltage has fallen below a usable level. Since joule thieves are step-up converters, they can take that "dead" battery, and give it a new life by stepping up its output voltage to usable levels again.

Milen @ instructables.com writes:
Normally the Joule thief produces output voltage, which value is difficult to predict. Without load (the LED) I have measured voltages over 30 V. I wanted to create a Joule thief, which can be used to supply some small electronic devices, but having well defined and stable output voltage. There are known some solutions in which instead the LED load, a one-diode rectifier is used, and the output voltage is stabilized by the use of Zenner diode. I did not like this solution, because through the Zenner diode flows always a constant DC current, what reduces drastically the efficiency of the device and empties fast the supply battery. I was looking for other, better solution of the output voltage stabilization (limitation).
High efficiency regulated Joule thief - [Link]
Dave Kruschke writes:
Yep, no transformer and no hard to get IC. But, … two transistors and other parts are required. I actually found this circuit by accident while roaming Colin Mitchell's Talking Electronics website (talkingelectronics.com). This website is very rich with examples and explanations of a huge variety of circuits. In fact, this website is so abundant in circuits that later on, I couldn't find the circuit revealed here. Anyhow, I believe that the TE circuit can be considered "robust" as it works even if different parts are used.

Making LED devices portable can be a little bulky due to the batteries. The Joule Thief solves that, by boosting a single AA battery's voltage to a high enough level to light a LED. Check it out.

This is a 1.2-volt single transistor flyback (Joule Thief) circuit that features a third coil. With it, flash duration and brightness is much enhanced, even with just a 10uF capacitor, as can be seen in the following schematic

King James Version (KJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
5 But if any have caused grief , he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all. | 5 If anyone has caused grief, he has not so much grieved me as he has grieved all of you, to some extent--not to put it too severely. |
6 Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. | 6 The punishment inflicted on him by the majority is sufficient for him. |
7 So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. | 7 Now instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. |
8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him. | 8 I urge you, therefore, to reaffirm your love for him. |
9 For to this end also did I write , that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things. | 9 The reason I wrote you was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything. |
10 To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; | 10 If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And what I have forgiven--if there was anything to forgive--I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, |
11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us : for we are not ignorant of his devices. | 11 in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes. |

Veteran actor Om Puri, who has appeared in films produced on three continents, fired a letter to Jayanthi Natarajan, the newly appointed Union Minister for Environment and Forests, asking her to do everything in her power to hasten the enactment of the new Animal Welfare Act, 2011. In the letter, Puri points out that the current laws which provide for fines and other penalties for cruelty to animals were written more than five decades ago and that now they are so weak that they have little deterrent effect.
"Considering that the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960, was enacted 50 years ago, it is high time for India's animal welfare laws to get a much-needed 21st-century makeover," writes Puri. "I hope the government will put politics aside and give our animals the basic protections that they deserve by passing the Animal Welfare Act, 2011".
His most recent movie is West Is West by Andy De Emmony, and he has three films scheduled to open this year.

Every time I rack the beer from the primary into the next vessel I always somehow disturb the slurry on the bottom and land up with a hazy beer. I use an auto siphon. That's why I like to use the secondary, I just have a hard time getting a clear beer without it.
I'm with you, Scooby, and it's not like I haven't done the 4 weeks in primary thing too. But I'm not dogmatic about it, I'm pragmatic...I do what works. If I'm not getting the clearing I want in primary, I have no problem with racking to a secondary. It's results that count, not rules.
Life begins at 60....1.060, that is!www.dennybrew.comhttp://www.experimentalbrew.com - the website for the book "Experimental Homebrewing"...coming Nov. 2014
I'm going to kick this horse again..... I have always used secondaries, ever since I started brewing. The seed of doubt was planted in my head on this forum that perhaps it isn't worth it. I continued to use them anyway because I needed things in the 5 gallon carboys so that I could put three of them into my ferm chamber at the same time (not possible with three 6.5's). However, I finally found my "stride" with my brewing schedule and now really need two fermenters in the fridge at the same time, so I decided to cast the secondaries aside and roll for a while. The last two batches I have kegged and and tapped plus one more batch in the fermenter are my "no secondary" experiments. I am not pleased. My new beers are significantly less clear after 6 weeks (4 weeks in primary @ 65*F, 2 weeks in keg @ about 45*F) when compared to the batches that I secondaried (2 weeks in primary, 2 weeks secondary, 2 weeks in keg). That settles the debate for me personally.
So it all boils down to clairity?
I can't really address the flavor... yet. Let me clarify about clarity. I always get chill haze in my beers for the first couple weeks at serving temp. After that they will clear up completely. However, the beers I have now that I did not secondary have more than just chill haze issues going on; They still have a lot of yeast left in suspension. I'm sure they will eventually clear, but since they are in kegs already, I'll be sucking yeast cake into my glass for a while before that happens. Maybe I should I have left them in primary longer than a month, but I am not going to make a change to my process that will require me to wait even longer for my yeast to settle. So, I can't comment on whether the flavor will eventually be better or worse, because right now these things just taste like yeast. So, I guess my opinion is that not using a secondary (for me) seems to mean that I need to keep my beers in fermenters longer than 1 month. Using a secondary gets me where I want in just 1 month, so I am going to keep using them.
Would the above situation be improved if you racked to a tertiary - say a bottling bucket - instead of directly into the keg from the primary? Or would you be convinced that there'd still be too much yeast in suspension -ultimately hindering clarity?

On the second day of testimony in supermodel Christie Brinkley's super screwed-up divorce case, Brinkley says almost ex-hubby Peter Cook once called her threatening to kill himself by smashing his car into a tree.
Brinkley said she begged Cook not to do it because it would destroy their children. When asked why -- Christie responded "it was the right thing to do."
And -- if you can believe it -- the story gets better.
Christie says Petey repeatedly denied the affair. She says she was "shocked" because her picket fence perfect life had been "shattered" and "vanished."

48. Though the ratchetivity from VH1's popular series "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" turnt up television screens, the beef often spilled over onto the web. Singer Toya and her husband MempHitz engaged in a full-on Twitter war with his ex/ R&B songstress K. Michelle after allegations that Memph had abused K years ago. The e-feud resulted in the hit producer slapping Viacom and K with a multi-million dollar lawsuit for defamation.

Hard News: Dirty Politics, in reply to
Is this very different from voting locally?
I would say it's more strict than voting locally, where the standard interaction has you providing your name and electoral workers believing you, and even the catch situation outlined above does not require third-party verification.
I was also amused at the implied equivalence between the classes of acceptable witness.
ETA: if you vote from overseas you sign a "special declaration", which I suppose is equivalent to the "require the questions to be answered in writing signed by the person to whom they are put" bit of S166.
Yeah I mailed mine and the ID requirements amounted to "have someone trustworthy agree that you're you, and by 'trustworthy' we mean an official, a New Zealander, or someone who knows you".

Jetting back for a couple of weeks for a family Christmas or wedding doesn't really cut it.
I'm sure you don't mean that to come off as dismissive as it does. "A couple of weeks" is all the time off most of us get, "a family Christmas or wedding" is desperately precious, and "[j]etting back" will eat a huge portion of most people's disposable income.
One thing about the three year rule is that it favors the wealthy. That is, given two equally-connected people living in the same place overseas, the one with more money is more likely to be able to make the necessary trips back to NZ.
Two ideas, one maybe-possible and one not at all so (but highly attractive from where I'm sitting):
Idea 1: You can vote in NZ if you're not voting somewhere else.
Idea 2: A trip-to-NZ version of the volunteers who pick you up and give you a ride to the polling place.

I'm keen to learn, and I seem to learn best at my own pace or on the job. But the old job-experience catch-22 continues to raise its ugly head. I'd be the ideal candidate for an ICT apprenticeship if they ever get implemented.
One option for gaining tech writing experience at your own pace is to join an open source project and contribute documentation. I can't guarantee that all employers will count this as 'experience', but some definitely do[*], and will in fact look extra-favorably on it as showing initiative/commitment/etc.
Be warned, though, that some (not all) technical writing positions[**] and many (probably not all?) testing positions do involve nontrivial amounts of coding.
[*] source: have been involved in hiring people whose experience was gained through open source work.[**] source: am technical writer.
I had 2 years of hour-a-week RE in my state primary school, both taught by local ministers.
I don't remember anything about one of them, but my recollection of the other is that we spent the entire year learning to sing Lord Of The Dance, never quite seeming to reach the standard our instructor hoped for. At one point he even brought in a tape of other kids singing to inspire us to greater heights.
I've always filed this mentally under "adults are weird", but it now occurs to me for the first time that maybe he was being quietly subversive in his own way. Still weird, though.
I tell people that my go-to meal for dining alone is a can of tuna and a multivitamin, but I can exclusively reveal to you, dear PASers, that actually I usually skip the multivitamin.
For me, the content of what I'm consuming in the evenings seems to matter a fair bit. Current events (in any format) are highly likely to rile me up, so I have stopped watching or reading news at night. This seems to have been beneficial. The same restrictions apply to hate-reading, although obviously it would be better still to give it up entirely.
A couple of months ago I decided to try counting sleep and then spent the rest of the night trying to figure out whether I was 'watching' multiple sheep or the same sheep going round and round in circles, and if the latter, how it was getting back round to the left-hand side of my imagination without me 'seeing' it.
I think I did get to sleep eventually, but without ovine assistance.
Never mind the old Aussie uniforms, check out that old Aussie (and Kiwi) facial hair!

Florida's Crist to run for US Senate
Though not nearly as scintillating as Miss California saying that she and President Obama share the same views on same-sex marriage, there are other political stories brewing today.
Like Florida Governor Charlie Crist announcing he'll forego running for a second term as the state's chief executive in favor of opting to run in the US Senate race.
The seat, currently occupied by outgoing Republican Senator Mel Martinez, is up for grabs, and Crist may represent the GOP's best chance for keeping it red. Even if Crist crossed party lines last February to endorse President Obama's stimulus package.
It's all about working together, Crist says
"Here in Florida, we've shown that when we put people first and work together much can be accomplished, and I intend to bring that same approach to Washington," Crist said in a statement announcing his run.
But that approach doesn't work according to his primary opponent, House Speaker Marco Rubio -- who you could call the anti-Crist. (We're here all week, try the veal).
Only hours after Crist's announcement, Rubio's campaign released a web ad which previews one of the ways he'll try to differentiate himself from the popular governor.

Reviewed Whole Steamed Lobster

"I also had never cooked lobster before. I was looking for a simple way to cook lobster tails. This is the one! My lobster tails came out flawless. You would think that the lobsters came from a five star restaurant. I even surprised myself. I wish that I could post the pictures that I took of my perfect meal.""
